Great readThis was a cute, lighthearted book that explores the life of a Craigslist addict, and how Craiglist, a large free classifieds (分类广告) website, got her through her life so far. The story was well thought out and pretty realistic when it comes to life struggles. It gets a little unbelievable towards the end, and I don’t like it when authors conform to the ‘the world is perfect’ viewpoint most books have, but, that my pessimist breaking through.The book needs some serious editing.

(click for more)1．Who likes the book My Life on Craigslist most?A．Krysi Joseph.B．Annabellall.C．Kindle Customer.D．Lovetoread.2．Which of the following do both Kindle Customer and Krysi Joseph agree on?A．The book deserves a good rating.B．The ending of the book is disappointing.C．The book is popular with Craigslist addicts.D．The book would have been perfect without editing errors.3．What is the purpose of the text ?A．To advertise a bestseller.B．To recommend a website.C．To share a woman’s story.D．To present reviews of a book.Smoking is even a tradition in Chinese celebrations. At my wedding, we handed out the traditional candies to people who came. I had said to my wife, Ellen, that handing out packets of cigarettes was wrong, as it just encouraged people to continue a deadly habit. “But it’s traditional,” she replied, “People would think we were mean if we don’t!”Over the years I’ve been given cigarettes as gifts and have always handed them straight back. This might make me look ungrateful in Chinese eyes, but I can’t understand the logic behind handing someone a gift that will cause them to smell terrible, have awful breath, and even worse, kill them.This year the university I work at has taken the bold step of making the entire campus “smoke free”. As my students are either doctors doing postgraduates studies, or medical students on their way to being doctors, I thought they would be in favor of such a move, but I was wrong. Many of them have complained to me that they see this as depriving them of their civil rights and that they should be allowed to smoke when and where they like.When I pointed out to them that cigarettes do harm not only to those smoking themselves, but even to those breathing in second hand smoke, the argument was dismissedwith a wave. “Those studies aren’t conclusive”, one doctor replied. “Besides, my grandmother told me that smoking is manly.” Tempting(诱人的) as it was to ask if she was also a doctor, I let the argument go and went off in search of some fresh air.4．Which of the following is a consequence of smoking according to the author?A．It will leave you breathless.B．People believe you are mean.C．People think you are ungrateful.D．It will make your smell unpleasant. 5．What attitude do many of the author’s students have towards the entire campus “smoke free”?A．Objective.B．Unconcerned.C．Negative.D．Positive. 6．What does the underlined word “depriving” in paragraph 3 mean?A．Robbing.B．Accusing.C．Informing.D．Reminding. 7．In which column of a newspaper is this text probably found?A．Technology.B．Entertainment.C．Art.D．Life.Artificial intelligence (AI ) has been increasingly good at fooling people. A series of photos showing former US president Donald Trump being aggressively arrested by police have caught people’s attention. They were fake but very convincing.Created by the AI program Midjourney, the photos were highly realistic, from the characters’ movements to the surroundings. However, many details can give away the fact that they are made by AI. The Washington Post’s technology writer Shira Ovide shared her tips. The main idea is to spot the problems anything that would look strange in a photo.AI software has a history of generating human hands incorrectly. It sometimes can create hands with more than five fingers. This is because AI isn’t sure what a “hand” exactly is, according to Popular Science. The data AI uses to learn often show hands and fingers in various gestures, which can be very confusing for AI.AI-generated images also usually contain details that are against reality. To spot this, focus on items like accessories. For example, people in an image may be missing earrings or one part of their sunglasses. If there’s text in an image, such as a newspaper or poster, it’s usually garbled (篡改), even though the text may look realistic from a distance.Another thing AI is terrible at handling is the background. If there’s a crowd in the image, people’s faces in the background are usually blurry - or they don’t have faces at all!The development of AI-generated art also raises alarm bells about how these fakeimages could be used to spread misinformation. “I think misinformation is going to hit an all-time high,” Jamie Cohen, a digital culture and AI expert in the US, told New York Post. Generating an AI artwork is to “create reality”, Cohen argued, adding that, being able to tell whether the work is real or not requires high media literacy(素养) skills. “The world may not be ready for how realistic the images have become,” Shane Kittelson, a US researcher, told The Washington Post.8．Why are Donald Trump’s photos mentioned in the first paragraph?A．To draw more people’s attention.B．To make people convinced of the news.C．To show the AI-generated images were fake.D．To prove that it’s easy for AI to cheat people.9．Why does AI generate human hands incorrectly according to the text?A．It is unable to recognize human hands.B．The data it uses to learn contain errors.C．It doesn’t fully understand human hands.D．It has insufficient data about human hands.10．Which of the following will Jamie Cohen agree with?A．AI artworks may not be reflective of true creativity.B．It’s high time to address the risks posed by AI works.C．AI artworks will replace traditional art forms in the future.D．Detecting real art demands strong media literacy competence.11．Where is the text probably from?A．A news report.B．A diary.C．A research paper.D．A science fiction.Scientists have found that floating solar panels could provide a huge amount of electricity if they were placed on lakes and other bodies of water around the world. Floating solar panels could also help save water and protect land.Solar panels — also known as “photovoltaic” panels — are used to turn sunlight into electricity. Most solar panels are placed on land in large collections called solar farms. But recently people have begun to explore putting floating solar panels on water. Because these panels float, some people call them “floatovoltaies (浮动光伏)”.The researchers behind the new study looked at 114,555 reservoirs (水库) worldwide. They used computer programs to figure out how much electricity could be produced yearly by covering 30% of these reservoirs with floating solar panels. The answer was surprisingly large — more than twice the amount of energy the United States generates in a year. And 10 times as much energy as all the solar power currently being generated in the world. The researchers described the results as “remarkable”.The scientists found that floatovoltaies would be especially useful when reservoirs were near smaller cities (50,000 people or less). The researchers say there are about 6,256 cities around the world where floating solar panels could provide all the electricity the cities need.Floatovoltaies can also help save water by limiting evaporation (蒸发) from reservoirs. The scientists say that solar panels covering just 30% of the reservoirs’ surfaces could save as much water as 300 million people would use in a year. There are several other reasons that make floatovoltaies a good idea. Photovoltaic panels work better when they’re not extremely hot. The water helps cool the panels so that they create more energy. Putting solar panels on water also means that there’s no need to clear land for a solar farm. That’s more and more important as countries work to fight climate change and protect natural spaces for wild animals.12．What did the researchers think of the study results?A．Skeptical.B．Amazing.C．Worrying.D．Interesting. 13．Where should floating solar panels be placed to make them extremely helpful?A．In small cities with more rain and less sunshine.B．In huge cities with many small lakes and rivers.C．In tiny cities near reservoirs with less than 50,000 people.D．In large cities far from reservoirs with more than 50,000 people.14．Why is covering reservoirs with floating solar panels useful?A．It can help reduce water evaporation.B．It can prevent water from being polluted.C．It purifies the water available for consumption.D．It provides enough sunlight for the solar panels.15．What’s the best title for the text?A．The methods of using floatovoltaiesB．The prospects of the power industryC．Solar Farms —Turning Sunlight into ElectricityD．Floating Solar Panels — Making Energy, Saving Water二、七选五There are hundreds of worthy destinations in the country catering to all tastes. At the top of that list is Chengdu, the perfect jumping-off point for those in search of a mix of stunning natural scenery, wildlife and some of most incredible food on the planet. In recent years the city has expanded its offerings, including a number of new projects tourists will want to experience. 16It’s the happiest city in China.If visiting a place with happy locals is a priority for you, there’s no better city to hit than Chengdu. It has been voted the happiest city in China for 12 continuous years by an annual survey conducted by Oriental Outlook. 17It has got one most beautiful bookstore in China.The new location in Dujiangyan is the second Zhongshuge bookstore in the provincial capital. 18 Inspired by Dujiangyan’s ancient irrigation system, the new bookstore has its own features. The beautiful environment of the bookstore can attract more people who do not love books, and awaken their interest and memory in reading.There’s a spectacular new massive airport.One of the world’s most eye-catching new airports, Chengdu’s Tianfu International Airport is as modern as it gets. Beginning operations in 2021, Thantu Airport is the largest civil airport. 19 Travelers can experience a series of cutting-edge technologies at Tianfu, including facial recognition software and self-check-in booth.20There’re plans to turn Chengdu into a “Western China Science City”. Travelers visiting the “Science City” can expect to see many examples of eco-conscious and new wave architecture created by some of the most famous firms in the world. Among these is the world’s first “Unicorn Island”, the country’s next high-tech unicorn. There will also be a low-carbon Future Science and Technology City.A．The arts scene is taking off.B．It’s also a city focused on the future.C．There’s no harm in starting to dream about your next visit now.D．It’s expected to handle up to 60 million passengers per year by 2025.E．Its results combine big data, questionnaires, site visits and expert opinions.F．The first, which opened in 2017 in central Chengdu, is modeled after terrace fields.G．Whether you’re dreaming of business travel or just post-pandemic trip, here are some reasons.三、完形填空Five years ago, I was a trail ride leader at a holiday farm in Victoria.

Others in my class are five, seven, ten… I fancy myself a source of inspiration for them, who would say, “If he can do it, I can, too!”For some years before we stepped on the real stage, our recitals (演奏会) were given online. I could play perfectly — when no one was looking. But those online recitals caused me a kind of stage fright. Something about being watched and recorded, perhaps? Anyway, it was not too serious.However, last year was a whole new ball game. That spring came with a real stage. An excited crowd. Clapping. Filming. A real recital! Exciting but stressful. I didn’t know if I could handle it.The adorable little performers were delicately dressed in their party-best skirts, with leather shoes hanging beneath too-high chairs, unable to reach the ground. Luckily, I could. We sat among the guests before the show, struck by their excitement. One by one, up and down, my fellow students went — each playing superbly. Then, it was my turn. I thought I was ready.But I struggled from the start. I kept my fingers moving. Sound still radiated from the strings, but the tune was all wrong. I restarted both pieces three times. When I got totally lost for a few notes in the middle, I thought, “I don’t know what this is anymore, but, hey, it sounds kind of nice!” I kept thinking, “Make a joyful noise, regardless!”That eight minutes was like eight hours. Being the eldest in the room often makes people think you’re the best. The truth, especially at that recital, was far different. But I would have awarded myself the gold for chutzpah — start playing a new instrument at 62, and then perform in front of a large audience.Making music knows no age, and all players are welcome. Looking back, I realize my lengthy life experience has taught me that the show must go on — no matter what is occurring. Life’s music is playing! It’s my job to just show up and keep trying.24. What can be inferred about the author at online recitals?A. He suffered mild stress in playing.B. He felt too nervous to play publicly.C. He paid no attention to the audience.D. He played better than other performers.25. How did the author deal with his stage fright on the real stage?A. By keeping a positive mindset.B. By interacting with the audience.C. By adjusting the order of his pieces.D. By focusing on the playing techniques.26. What does the underlined word “chutzpah” refer to in paragraph 6?A. Honesty and tolerance.B. Experience and wisdom.C. Competence and talent.D. Determination and courage.27. What message does the author seem to convey in the text?A. Hard work pays off.B. Age is no barrier to trying.C. Practice makes perfect.D. Failure is the mother of success.CLivestreaming (直播) through channels is an increasingly popular way to sell goods online. It usually lasts between 5 and 10 minutes, and someone promotes a product. Viewers can then readily buy it by clicking on a link.We analyzed (分析) 99.451 sales cases on a livestream selling platform and matched them with actual sales cases. In terms of time, that is equal to over 2 million 30-second television advertisements.To determine the emotional (情绪的) expression of the salesperson, we used two deep learning models: a face model and an emotion model. The face model discovers the presence or absence of a face in a frame of a video stream. The emotion model then determines the probability that a face is exhibiting any of the six basic human emotions: happiness, sadness, surprise, anger, fear or disgust. For example, smiling signals a high probability of happiness, while an off-putting expression usually points toward anger.We wanted to see the effect of emotions expressed at different times in the sales cases so we counted probabilities for each emotion for all 62 million frames in our database. We then combined these probabilities with other possible aspects that might drive sales — such as price and product characteristics — to judge the effect of emotion.We found that, perhaps unsurprisingly, when salespeople show more negative emotions — such as anger and disgust — the volume of sales went down. But we also found that a similar thing happened when the salespeople show high levels of positive emotions, such as happiness or surprise.A likely explanation, based on our research, is that smiling can be disgusting because it lacks true feelings and can reduce trust in the seller. A seller’s happiness may be taken as a sign that the seller is gaining interests at the customer’s expense.28. What can we know about the livestreaming to sell goods online?A. It challenges the physical economy.B. It helps big company sell all goods.C. It is very convenient for the buyers.D. It helps the sellers develop fixed expressions.29. What does the underlined word “off-putting” mean in paragraph 3?A. Unhappy.B. Embarrassed.C. Surprised.D. Shy.30. How do customers feel about the seller’s smiling?A. They feel thankful.B. They feel happy.C. They feel cheated.D. They feel so tired.31. Which of the following could be the best title for the text?A. Livestreamers Sell Products SuccessfullyB. Smiling Can Increase the Sales in RealityC. Emotions and Faces: What’s the DifferenceD. Expressions Affect Selling Products OnlineDArtificial intelligence (AI) models have long surpassed just creating text responses and images. Now, with only one sentence, Open AI’s latest text-to-video model, Sora, can turn your words into video with good visual quality while faithfully following your content instructions.Sora is said to be superior to many other existing models with similar functions. The AI model can create videos at suitable aspect ratios (屏幕高宽比) for different devices. It also lets users quickly test out content in lower quality before making the high-quality version, which helps speed up output according to the user’s requests.Aside from this, its ability to present videos in a realistic and smooth manner is astonishing. Sora can create detailed scenes with several characters, specific types of motion, and accurate subject and background details. Beyond the user’s requests, it also understands how these elements exist in the real world. For example, reflections in the water change as a woman walks by.Sora’s amazing performance wouldn’t be possible without its helpful assistant, ChatGPT, which transforms simple sentences into detailed descriptions, improving the accuracy of output.However, the current model isn’t perfect. It may have trouble accurately showing how things move in a complicated scene and might not get how one action leads to another. For example, if someone eats part of a cookie in a Sora-made video, the cookie might not look like it’s been bitten into. The model might mix up directions and find it hard to describe events in the right order. One possible reason is that Sora learns each basic unit of a video, known as a spacetime patch (时空，补丁), independently.Sora is still in the testing stage of development. OpenAI is now inviting network security professionals to make random attacks on Sora’s system, aiming to test the model’s possible weaknesses and risks. Sora has also been open to some visual artists, designers and filmmakers. Their feedback will assist OpenAI in enhancing the model to better serve creative professionals.32. What is the main focus of paragraph 2 and 3?A. Sora’s development.B. Sora’s diversityC. Sora’s capabilities.D. Sora’s popularity.33. Why does the author provide the example in paragraph 5?A. To highlight Sora’s potential safety risks.B. To illustrate Sora’s existing limitations.C. To showcase Sora’s perfect performance.D. To explain the concept of a spacetime patch.34. What can we know about Sora up to now?A. It has been made available to various industries.B. Its commercial release has been called off.C. It has exposed alarming security issues.D. It is undergoing testing and improvement.35. What’s the best title for the text?A. Sora: Lead the way in creating videosB. Sora: Surpass existing ChatGPTC. Sora: Generate a rich variety of videosD. Sora: A perfect text-to-video Al model第二节（共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）根据短文内容，从短文后选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

This plant also comes in different colors, from yellow to black to green.Bamboo has been used to make many things such as hats and kitchen tools(厨房用具). Because it is strong, bamboo is also used to build buildings.Many Asian countries have used bamboo for hundreds of years.

Enthusiasm will take you further than any amount of experience. ”How right they were!“Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.”wrote Ralph Waldo Emerson. It is the paste that helps you hang on there when the going tough. It is the inner voice that whispers, “I can do it!”when others shout, “No, you can’t !”It took years and years for the early work of Barara McClintock, a geneticist who won the 1983 Nobel Prize in medicine , to be generally accepted. Yet she didn’t stop working on her experiments. Work was such a deep pleasure for her that she never thought of stopping.We are all born with wide-eyed, enthusiastic wonder and it is this childlike wonder that gives enthusiastic people such youthful air, whatever their age was. At 90,cellist Palblo Cassls would start his day by playing Bach. A s the music flowed through his fingers his stooped shoulders would strengthen and joy would reappear in his eyes . As author and poet Samuei Ulman once wrote ,“ Years wrinkle the skin ,but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.”Enthusiastic people also love what they do, regardless of money or power . Patricia Mellrath, retired director of the Missouri Repertory Theatre in Kansas City, was once asked where she got her enthusiasm. She replied, “My father ,a lawyer long ago told me , I never made a dime until I stopped working for money.”If we cannot do what we love as a full-time career, we can as a hobby. Elizabeth Layton was 68 before she began to draw. This activity ended periods of depression that had troubled her for at least 30 years ,and the quality of her led one critic to say,“I’m tempted to call Layton a genius.”We can’t afford to waste tears on “might-have-beens”. We need to turn the tears into sweat as wego after “what-can-be ”.We need to live each moment whole-heartedly, which all our senses-including pleasure in the sweet smell of a back-yard garden, the simple picture of a six-year –old ,the beauty of a rainbow.46.

Ready-made glasses, and not wearing glasses when you should, won’t do harm to your eyes, but you may see better with glasses that are specially made for you.Watching too much television is bad for your eyes. This is not true. People with easily affected eyes may find that they get red and aching from staring at a fixed distance for long periods, but there won’t be any lasting effects.Carrots will help you see in the dark. Carrots are rich in betacarotene(胡萝卜素), which the body can change into vitamin A, too little of which can cause night blindness.

In contrast to what some might hope, students 55 finish their homework exclaiming that they had great fun. Nor is homework an activity that students choose to undertake. It is 56 by a teacher for students to complete on the teacher’s schedule, with the teacher’s requirements in mind．So to have the fight 57 Will be of great help. Homework means business and the student should expect to work on it seriously. As in the work place, careless efforts and lack of self-discipline are likely to make the 58 impression.Teachers assign homework for 59 purposes. In some cases, teachers seek to review and solidifymaterial being covered in class; homework is also designed to 60 student learning beyond class lessons. As students mature, teachers often assign homework nightly in several subjects. Homework is also used to prepare students to handle new work, 61 in the ease of summer reading. Increasingly, school reforms call for homework to take the form of course projects, thus increasing its 62 to “real-life”job-related activity.Like jobs, homework can be appealing when its resources are well managed. Resources 63 sources of information—textbooks, of course, and increasingly, the Internet—but they also include a quiet space to work, materials and equipment such as calculators, paper or a computer, and others who cohabit (共面存在) in the homework environment.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D．Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read．（A）Saturday 28 April, : Dennis Tito was setting off on his holiday. Mr. Tito’s journey was certainly unusual! So was the transport he chose, and the price of his trip.The 60-year-old multi-millionaire from New York was sitting on board a Russian spaceship. He was on a journey to the International Space Station. It might have been a routine trip for the two astronauts who were traveling with him, but for him it was certainly no ordinary journey. Dennis Tito was the first tourist ever in space, and he had paid the sum of $20 million to go there. As the spacecraft left the earth’s atmosphere, Tito drank a glass of fruit juice to celebrate and looked down at the earth’s blue-green surface. Two minutes later, he was sick. Luckily it was only a minor problem. He soon recovered, and from then on enjoyed a smooth journey. When he arrived at the space station, there was a big smile on his face. “A great trip!”he commented．“I love space.”For a long time space travel was something for heroes. But all this is going to change. Companies like ProSpace are investing large amounts of money in space travel. They want space andspace travel to belong to the public, not just governments. There are other plans, like voyages through space from one side of the world to the other. Maybe we will be able to depart from New York at nine o’clock in the morning, and arrive an hour later-- in Tokyo! Such a schedule would allow the business traveler to return to New York on the same day, and still have eight hours for a meeting! 65．Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A．Business Travelers B．Space Tourists C．A Space Exploration D．A Frightening Adventure 66．According to the passage, Dennis Tito .A．enjoyed his trip very much B．was too sick to eat anything in spaceC．suffered a lot during the trip D．didn’t think the trip was worthwhile 67．Which of the following statements is tree according to the passage?A．Tito was the first American tourist in space.B．Tito contributed all of his wealth to his space trip.C．Tito visited the Russian Space Station during his trip.D．Space travel has become a routine for Tito since then.68．It can be expected from the passage that .A．space travel will belong to the public instead of governmentsB．airplanes will some day reach the speed of space vehiclesC．can will be able to circle the earth within less than an hourD．travel between two places on earth will be made through space69．According to the comments of the Physical Education teacher, Simon .A．is too talkative in the classB．likes to work with his classmatesC．doesn’t exercise his body at the fight timeD．becomes weak because he doesn’t exercise at all70．Which of Simon’s subjects will attract the headmaster’s attention in future?A．Biology and Maths.

D．Physics and Physical Education.71．Which of the following statements best describes Simon?A．He has made great progress in language classes.B．His potential has been fully reflected in science classes.C．His grade in maths makes him a born scientist.D．He needs to improve his attitude on certain subjects.（C）Making fists is relaxing. It dictates the shape of the immediate future; it calms you down (it’s OK, it’s on a list somewhere) and it makes you feel good when you cross something off 0ist-making is standard practice in therapy for depression). It might even help you to get things done too. The more you have to do, the more you need a list and few people with high-powered jobs get by without them. Women always think they’re better at lis ts than men. Men tend to have Tasks which they assemble’ into Action Plans whereas women just have lists of Things To Do.James Oliver, psychologist, has created his own “time management matrix (模式)”. He writes a list of things to do and then organizes them into categories: things that have to be done straight away, other things that it would be good to do today, things that are important but haven’t got to be done immediately and things that are less urgent but tha t he doesn’t want to forget. “Using categories to order the world is the way the human mind works,” he says. “After that, you should divide things into levels of importance.” But he also warns, “If people get too absorbed in making fists, it doesn’t work. They have too many categories and lose their ability to decide which is the most important.”It’s all a question of what works best for you, whether it’s a tidy notebook, a packet of Post-it notes or the back of your hand．Having tried all these, student Kate Rollins relies on a computerized list,which is printed out each morning. “My electronic organizer has changed my life,”she says. “Up to now, I’ve always relied on my good memory, but now that I’m working and studying, I find I’ve got too much to keep in my head．”So what are you waitin g for? No, you’re not too busy to make today the first day of your upgraded time-managed life. In fact, there’s no better time titan the present to begin to take increased control of your work and life. So, get out your pencil and pen and make a list.72．The main purpose of making lists is to .A．help map out one’s future B．divide things into levels of importanceC．treat certain diseases such as depression D．organiz e one’s work and life reasonably73．We can learn from the passage that .A．good memory helps in list makingB．too much’ listing might be misleadingC．women usually make a lot more lists than menD．people with high-powered jobs make lists most74．The word “categories”in paragraph 2 most probably has the same meaning as“”.A．groups B．portions C．items D．areas75．In this passage the author intends to .A．suggest a way of raising one’s living standard B．introduce some ways of business management C．urge people to develop the habit of listing D．warn people not to rely on their memory（D）“Racism (种族歧视) is a grown-up disease,”declares the saying on Ruby Bridge’s website along with a photo of Mrs. Bridge today, a 6-year-old girl four decades ago. In the photo, she is walking up the steps of the William Frantz Public School in New Orleans, a little black girl accompanied by two officers who protect her on her way to school.Her name then was Ruby Nell. It was Nov. 14, 1960. She was the first black child to enroll at this all-white elementary school according to the court order to desegregate in New Orleans schools. Her story is moving -- she was a very courageous child -- and remains a significant proof against intolerance (不宽容) of all kinds. Ruby’s photo brings out another powerful image on her website: Norman Rockwells symbolic painting for Look magazine on Jan. 14, 1964, “The Problem We All Live With.”Rockwell was an illustrator of exceptional skill and charm. He produced a vast number of unforgettable images over a long career, many of them involving children. His American kids are innocent and appealing, but often, at the same time, decidedly naughty. His method was to photograph his models, and the resulting paintings were photographic．But it is revealing to see how the artist slightly changed facial expressions from photo to oil painting in order to make his paintings communicate with the viewer.
