When I was a kid, if someone told me that I would grow up to become a published author and founder of a youth literacy (读写能力)foundation, I would have laughed and kept walking. Even now when I see the title of my latest picture book, My Very Favorite Book in the Whole Wide World, I shake my head, not quite believing that book has my name on it. But the truth is, this story comes from my own personal experience.
It took me a very long time to find my personal reading voice. In Valdosta, Ga., where I grew up, my community promoted two pathways to a better life for little boys like me: being an athlete and being an entertainer. I was no different than the other kids, so I did what felt natural: Play football and overlook school. School presented challenges every day and so did football practice, but overcoming physical adversity (逆境) was on trend with my neighborhood’s culture. Reading books not so much.
Fortunately I went to college. That’s where my reading struggles really reared their ugly head. Trips to the grocery store were stressful because there was so much reading involved in the simple act of buying food. I would misread labels and grab the wrong items. Once, I picked up apple sauce thinking it was apple slices. I didn’t notice my mistake until I got home and realized that it was my inability to understand the differences in the wording on the labels that caused the mistake. I realized that I needed to make an important decision. If I wanted to be a better version of me, I had to become a stronger reader.
I joined a book club and read every free moment I had. My journey with reading also created a desire in me to inspire others who struggle with reading. So I started a nonprofit, Share the Magic Foundation, trying to transform the lives of children living in underserved communities through literacy.
4. What does the author think of his new book
A. It’s beyond his expectation. B. It’s helpful for youth literacy.
C. It s full of humor and wisdom. D. It’s an exact record of his early life.
5. What was the root reason for the author s failure to find his reading voice
A. The influence of his community. B. His dream to be an entertainer.
C The challenges he met in study. D. His preference for football.
6. What does the underlined phrase “reared their ugly head“ in Paragraph 3 mean
A. Changed. B. Concluded. C. Surfaced. D. Disappeared.
7. Which of the following best describes the author
A. Reflective and warm-hearted. B. Persuasive and absent-minded.
C. Creative and stubborn. D. Ambitious and cautious.
C
The term “labor shortage” was Googled more in May. Headline after headline has cited wage rises and bonuses that seem to make it a job hunter’s market.
The concept sounds simple—American companies must be struggling to find the employees they need. Yet some labor economists would argue the picture isn’t complete. Employers are unable to find the workers they want at the wages they’re willing to pay. Failing to appreciate this distinction could lead to policy errors down the road.
The laws of supply and demand should make spotting labor shortages relatively straightforward. When there aren’t enough workers, employers pay more to get them and wages go up.
Yet quickening wage growth isn’t the only mark of a shortage. The sign is seeing this trend alongside stalling (停滞) job growth. Just look at what’s been happening in the leisure and hotel industry, among the most bruised (受挫)by the COVID-19 shutdown. After jobs almost disappeared during the pandemic, we’re starting to see a rebound: In May, the industry created 292, 000 jobs, far outpacing other comers of the economy. Meanwhile, average weekly earnings have been rising faster. In other words, the market is working to resolve a shortage: When employers lift wages, they’re able to attract the employees they need. Yet, the industry wages are only just meeting pre-COVID levels; they are not too high.
To assess a shortage accurately, though, you need to look beyond industries to specific locations and occupations. The taxi queuing model was used to address the debate about a shortage of workers in engineering. Employers and job openings can be thought of as taxis, while workers are a line of waiting passengers. Depending on your location, there may be a long line of taxis (say, at the airport), or on the contrary a long line of passengers (at a hotel). Demand for chemistry engineers in Texas, for example, is different from chemistry engineers in Massachusetts.
The bottom line is that, in the market, shortages are not universal. Simultaneous shortages and surpluses can come to the force across the economy at any given point, which is why broad-brush policies can be counterproductive(事与愿违的).
8. What could lead to policy mistakes in the future
A. The views of some labor economists.
B. Workers who have difficulty in finding jobs.
C. Misunderstandings about labor shortage.
D. The salaries the employers are willing to pay.
9. What does May’s rebound jobs in the leisure and hotel industry tell us
A. The leisure and hotel industry is doing a very successful business.
B. Rapid wage growth connects with stalling employment growth.
C. The economy recovered quickly after the COVID-19.
D. Employees are eager to work after the COVID-19.
10. Why does the author mention “The taxi queuing model” in paragraph 5
A. To explain an opinion. B. To clarify a concept.
C. To present a fact. D. To make a prediction.
11. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A. Let the market fix labor shortages.
B. Job market is expected to be stronger.
C. Use broad-brush policies to assess labor shortages.
D. Competitors are eager to keep talent.
D
Faced with an attempt by a new chatbot to imitate (模仿) his own songs, the musician Nick Cave delivered a strong response: It was “an absolutely horrible attempt”. He understood that AI was in its babyhood, but could only conclude that the true horror might be that “it will forever be in its babyhood”. While a robot might one day be able to create a song, he wrote, it would never grow beyond “a kind of burlesque (滑稽的模仿)”, because robots-being composed of data-are unable to suffer, while songs arise out of suffering.
Fans of Cave and his band will agree that his music is inimitable, but that doesn’t mean they would necessarily be able to tell the difference. A few days before Cave’s remarks, experts were asked to distinguish between four genuine artworks and their AI imitations. Their conclusions were wrong five times out of 12, and they were only unitedly right in one of the four picture comparisons.
These are party games, but they point to an unfolding challenge that must be managed as a matter of urgency because, like it or not, Al art is upon us. The arrival of the human-impersonating ChatGPT might have increased general awareness, but artists across a wide range of disciplines are already exploring its potential, with the dancer Wayne McGregor and London’s Young Vic Theatre among those who have created AI-based works.
A strongly-worded report from Communications and Digital Committee (CDC) issued a wake-up call to the government, urging it to raise its game in educating future generations of tech-savvy professionals, and tackling key regulatory challenges. These included reviewing reforms to intellectual property law, strengthening the rights of performers and artists, and taking action to support the creative sector in adapting to the disturbances caused by swift and stormy technological change.
While developing Al is important, it should not be pursued at all costs, the CDC stressed. It deplored the failure of the Department for Digital, Culture, and Media to offer a defence against proposed changes to intellectual property law that would give copyright exemption (版权豁免) to any work, anywhere in the world, involving AI text and data mining.
The challenges of AI are both philosophical, as Cave suggested, and practical. They will unfold over the short and long term. State-of -the-art creative industries have a key role to play in shaping and exploring the philosophical ones, but they must have the practical help they require to survive and be successful. They need it now.
12. Why does the author mention the four picture comparisons in Paragraph 2
A. To stress the similarities between AI art and human art.
B. To argue that human art will be replaced by AI art.
C. To prove AI is stretching the boundaries of art.
D. To imply AI art cannot be underestimated.
13. What does the underlined word “deplored” in Paragraph 5 probably mean
A. Clearly analyzed. B. Bravely suffered.
C. Strongly criticized. D. Accurately perceived.
14. What can be inferred from the passage
A. Creative industries are responsible for causing the AI problem.
B. Tech professionals need more training to better understand AI art.
C. Some artists see AI as a tool even though it is a threat.
D. The quality of AI art dismisses concerns about intellectual property.
15. Which would be the best title for the passage
A. The Creative Thief: AI Makes Perfect Art
B. AI in Art: A Battle That Must Be Fought
C. A Great Opportunity: The Importance of AI on Art
D. The Rise of AI Art: An attempt to imitate songs

Why Do We Get Angry
Anger seems simple when we are feeling it, but the causes of anger are various. Knowing these causes can make us examine our behavior, and correct bad habits. The main reasons we get angry are triggering(触发))events, personality traits (特征) and our assessment of situations. ____16____
Triggering events for anger are so many that to describe them all would take hundreds of pages. However, here are some examples: being cut off in traffic, a deadline approaching, experiencing physical pain, and much more. ____17____ The reason why someone is triggered by something and others are not is often due to one’s personal history and psychological traits.
Each person, no matter who they are, has psychological imbalances. People who have personality traits that connect with competitiveness and low upset tolerance are much more likely to get angry. ____18____ Also, sometimes pre-anger does not have to do with a lasting condition, but rather a temporary state before a triggering event has occurred.
____19____ Sometimes even routine occurrences become sources of pre-anger, or anger itself. Sometimes ignorance and negative(消极的)outlooks on situations can create anger.
Anger is a particularly strong feeling and maybe people think that they have reasons to feel angry. ____20____ And it is best to know the reasons for anger to appear in order to prevent its presence. With these main reasons in mind, we can evaluate our level of anger throughout the day and prevent cases of outbursts by comprehending the reasons for our feelings.
A. But some types of situations can help us to get rid of the occurrence of anger.
B. Anger is rarely looked upon as a beneficial character trait, and is usually advised to reduce it.
C. Having these personality traits implies the pre-anger state, where anger is in the background of your mind.
D. Understanding these reasons will control our own anger if we are willing to evaluate ourselves with a critical eye.
E. However, anger can easily tum violent.
F. Our attitude and viewpoint on situations can create anger within us as well.
G. Not everyone acts the same in response to events, and that is why what triggers one person may or may not trigger another.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I remember the first time I met Roy. He was standing in the center of a group of boys, talking and laughing. He was a cute boy known in the class for his kindness and generosity. My name is Daniel, a new boy in the class. Our whole family had moved from the north of England because of my father being offered a job here. I lost all my old friends and felt lonely at my new school.
Most students in my new class weren’t very interested in a shy new boy. Roy was one of the few people who were kind to me. He often invited me to join his particular group, and as a result, I started getting to know people. Roy and I became good friends. We trusted each other and we could talk about personal matters, things that were important to us.
But just under a year ago, Roy’s father was knocked over by a car, who died a few days later. His family had to move to a much smaller house in order to manage financially. Roy changed completely, becoming silent and moody, who seemed to lose all interest in his work. These days, Roy and I saw each other from time to time, but we were no longer close.
Last week our school had a big fair in order to raise money for a charity. It was very successful and by the end of the day, we had made about f500.Our class teacher, Mr. White, came and chatted to a group of us that included Roy, and held up a box for us to see. There’s£500 in here,” he said with a smile.
Having left something in the classroom, I went inside to get it, and found Roy holding a wallet in his hand. Seeing me, he walked out without saying a word. The next morning, we were told that the money had been stolen. Mr. White had left the box in the classroom for a few minutes, but when he came back it had disappeared.
This weekend morning, having thought about the situation for a while, I decided to ask Roy about the the theft and went to see him.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Roy was out and I went upstairs to his bedroom to wait for him.

When I was a kid, if someone told me that I would grow up to become a published author and founder of a youth literacy (读写能力)foundation, I would have laughed and kept walking. Even now when I see the title of my latest picture book, My Very Favorite Book in the Whole Wide World, I shake my head, not quite believing that book has my name on it. But the truth is, this story comes from my own personal experience.
It took me a very long time to find my personal reading voice. In Valdosta, Ga., where I grew up, my community promoted two pathways to a better life for little boys like me: being an athlete and being an entertainer. I was no different than the other kids, so I did what felt natural: Play football and overlook school. School presented challenges every day and so did football practice, but overcoming physical adversity (逆境) was on trend with my neighborhood’s culture. Reading books not so much.
Fortunately, I went to college. That’s where my reading struggles really reared their ugly head. Trips to the grocery store were stressful because there was so much reading involved in the simple act of buying food. I would misread labels and grab the wrong items. Once, I picked up apple sauce thinking it was apple slices. I didn’t notice my mistake until I got home and realized that it was my inability to understand the differences in the wording on the labels that caused the mistake. I realized that I needed to make an important decision. If I wanted to be a better version of me, I had to become a stronger reader.
I joined a book club and read every free moment I had. My journey with reading also created a desire in me to inspire others who struggle with reading. So I started a nonprofit, Share the Magic Foundation, trying to transform the lives of children living in underserved communities through literacy.
4. What does the author think of his new book
A. It’s beyond his expectation. B. It’s helpful for youth literacy.
C. It s full of humor and wisdom. D. It’s an exact record of his early life.
5. What was the root reason for the author s failure to find his reading voice
A. The influence of his community. B. His dream to be an entertainer.
C. The challenges he met in study. D. His preference for football.
6. What does the underlined phrase “reared their ugly head“ in Paragraph 3 mean
A. Changed. B. Concluded. C. Surfaced. D. Disappeared.
7. Which of the following best describes the author
A. Reflective and warm-hearted. B. Persuasive and absent-minded.
C. Creative and stubborn. D. Ambitious and cautious.
【答案】4. A 5. A 6. C 7. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。讲述了原本不重视阅读的作者通过努力克服自身的阅读障碍,最终成功出版书籍、成立非营利性组织帮助他人的故事。
【详解】 1.推理判断题。由文章第一段“When I was a kid, if someone told me that I would grow up to become a published author and founder of a youth literacy (读写能力)foundation, I would have laughed and kept walking.Even now when I see the title of my latest picture book, My Very Favorite Book in the Whole Wide World, I shake my head, not quite believing that book has my name on it. (当我还是个孩子的时候,如果有人告诉我,我长大后会成为一名出版作家和一个青年识字基金会的创始人,我会笑,继续走路。即使现在,当我看到我最新图画书的标题,My Very Favorite Book in the Whole Wide World,我摇摇头,不太相信那本书上有我的名字。)”可知,作者假设还小的时候有人跟他说以后他能成为出版商和创始人,他会一笑了之,即使现在看到自己的书,也不相信是书上有他自己的名字,可以推断出作者认为他的新书超出了他的预期,故选A。
2.细节理解题。由文章第二段“In Valdosta, Ga., where I grew up, my community promoted two pathways to a better life for little boys like me: being an athlete and being an entertainer. I was no different than the other kids, so I did what felt natural: Play football and overlook school. School presented challenges every day and so did football practice, but overcoming physical adversity (逆境) was on trend with my neighborhood’s culture. Reading books not so much.(在佐治亚州的瓦尔多斯塔,在我长大的地方,我的社区为像我这样的小男孩开辟了两条走向更好生活的道路:成为一名运动员或一名艺人。我和其他孩子没有什么不同,所以我做了一件感觉很自然的事情:踢足球,忽略上学。学习每天都有挑战,足球练习也有挑战,但克服身体逆境是我的社区文化的趋势。读书不用太多。)”可知,在作者所在的那个社区像作者这样的小男孩被固定了两条通往更美好生活的道路——成为运动员或艺人,作者觉得这很自然,这是作者社区文化的趋势,读书不多,所以作者未能找到自己读书的声音的根本原因是社区对他的影响,而C项只是表面的一个挑战,故选A。
3.词句猜测题。由下文“Trips to the grocery store were stressful because there was so much reading involved in the simple act of buying food. I would misread labels and grab the wrong items. Once, I picked up apple sauce thinking it was apple slices. I didn’t notice my mistake until I got home and realized that it was my inability to understand the differences in the wording on the labels that caused the mistake. I realized that I needed to make an important decision. If I wanted to be a better version of me, I had to become a stronger reader.(去杂货店的旅行很紧张,因为购买食物的简单行为涉及到太多的阅读。我会误读标签,拿走错误的东西。有一次,我拿起了苹果酱,以为那是苹果片。我没有注意到我的错误,直到我回家后才意识到是我无法理解标签上措辞的不同,才导致了这个错误。我意识到我需要做出一个重要的决定。如果我想成为一个更好的自己,我就必须成为一个更强大的读者。)”可知,作者在读大学时候由于阅读障碍认错、买错了许多东西,所以他决定努力阅读,上文写他所在的社区读书不多,所以这一句“ That’s where my reading struggles really reared their ugly head.”是承接句,故这句话的意思应该是那就是我阅读争斗都展现出来了的地方,结合“head”可以推断出划线处的意思为“浮出水面”,故选C。
4.推理判断题。由文章最后一段“I joined a book club and read every free moment I had. My journey with reading also created a desire in me to inspire others who struggle with reading. So I started a nonprofit, Share the Magic Foundation, trying to transform the lives of children living in underserved communities through literacy.(我加入了一个读书俱乐部,在我拥有的每一个自由时间阅读。我的阅读之旅也让我产生了一种欲望,去激励那些努力阅读的人。所以我创办了一个非营利组织,Share the Magic Foundation,试图通过识字来改变生活在服务不足社区的儿童的生活。)”可知,作者希望激励那些在阅读中挣扎的人,所以成立一个非营利组织,努力通过扫盲改变生活在服务不足社区的儿童的生活,作者这么做是由于自己的经历想帮助更多像他一样的儿童,可以推断出作者是热心的,而且这也是深思后做的决定,故选A。
C
The term “labor shortage” was Googled more in May. Headline after headline has cited wage rises and bonuses that seem to make it a job hunter’s market.
The concept sounds simple—American companies must be struggling to find the employees they need. Yet some labor economists would argue the picture isn’t complete. Employers are unable to find the workers they want at the wages they’re willing to pay. Failing to appreciate this distinction could lead to policy errors down the road.
The laws of supply and demand should make spotting labor shortages relatively straightforward. When there aren’t enough workers, employers pay more to get them and wages go up.
Yet quickening wage growth isn’t the only mark of a shortage. The sign is seeing this trend alongside stalling (停滞) job growth. Just look at what’s been happening in the leisure and hotel industry, among the most bruised (受挫)by the COVID-19 shutdown. After jobs almost disappeared during the pandemic, we’re starting to see a rebound: In May, the industry created 292, 000 jobs, far outpacing other comers of the economy. Meanwhile, average weekly earnings have been rising faster. In other words, the market is working to resolve a shortage: When employers lift wages, they’re able to attract the employees they need. Yet, the industry wages are only just meeting pre-COVID levels; they are not too high.
To assess a shortage accurately, though, you need to look beyond industries to specific locations and occupations. The taxi queuing model was used to address the debate about a shortage of workers in engineering. Employers and job openings can be thought of as taxis, while workers are a line of waiting passengers. Depending on your location, there may be a long line of taxis (say, at the airport), or on the contrary a long line of passengers (at a hotel). Demand for chemistry engineers in Texas, for example, is different from chemistry engineers in Massachusetts.
The bottom line is that, in the market, shortages are not universal. Simultaneous shortages and surpluses can come to the force across the economy at any given point, which is why broad-brush policies can be counterproductive(事与愿违的).
8. What could lead to policy mistakes in the future
A. The views of some labor economists.
B. Workers who have difficulty in finding jobs.
C. Misunderstandings about labor shortage.
D. The salaries the employers are willing to pay.
9. What does May’s rebound jobs in the leisure and hotel industry tell us
A. The leisure and hotel industry is doing a very successful business.
B. Rapid wage growth connects with stalling employment growth.
C. The economy recovered quickly after the COVID-19.
D. Employees are eager to work after the COVID-19.
10. Why does the author mention “The taxi queuing model” in paragraph 5
A. To explain an opinion. B. To clarify a concept.
C. To present a fact. D. To make a prediction.
11. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A. Let the market fix labor shortages.
B. Job market is expected to be stronger.
C. Use broad-brush policies to assess labor shortages.
D. Competitors are eager to keep talent.
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要讲述市场调节劳动力短缺问题,从实际出发,因时度势,任何偏颇的观点可能会使政策适得其反。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Yet some labor economists would argue the picture isn’t complete. Employers are unable to find the workers they want at the wages they’re willing to pay. Failing to appreciate this distinction could lead to policy errors down the road.(然而,一些劳动经济学家会说,情况还不完整。雇主无法以他们愿意支付的工资找到他们想要的工人。未能认识到这一区别,可能会导致今后的政策失误)”可知,对劳动力短缺的误解会导致将来的政策失误。故选C。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。第四段首先陈述“Yet quickening wage growth isn’t the only mark of a shortage. The sign is seeing this trend alongside stalling (停滞) job growth.(然而,加快工资增长并不是短缺的唯一标志。有迹象表明,这一趋势与就业增长停滞同时出现。)”,以及“After jobs almost disappeared during the pandemic, we’re starting to see a rebound: In May, the industry created 292, 000 jobs, far outpacing other comers of the economy. Meanwhile, average weekly earnings have been rising faster. In other words, the market is working to resolve a shortage: When employers lift wages, they’re able to attract the employees they need. (在疫情期间,就业岗位几乎消失,我们开始看到反弹:5月份,该行业创造了29.2万个就业岗位,远远超过其他经济领域。与此同时,平均每周收入的增长速度也在加快。换句话说,市场正在努力解决短缺问题:当雇主提高工资时,他们就能吸引到他们需要的员工。)”可知,五月份的休闲和酒店行业岗位激增,主要是前段时间受COVID-19关闭影响的原因,表明“工资快速增长与就业增长停滞有关”。故选B。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。第五段前两句“To assess a shortage accurately, though, you need to look beyond industries to specific locations and occupations. The taxi queuing model was used to address the debate about a shortage of workers in engineering.(然而,要准确评估短缺情况,你需要把目光从行业转移到特定的地点和职业。用出租车排队模型来解决工程界关于工人短缺的争论)”可知,用出租车排队模型主要是解释上述提到的观点。故选A。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。文章第二段“The concept sounds simple—American companies must be struggling to find the employees they need. Yet some labor economists would argue the picture isn’t complete. (这个概念听起来很简单——美国公司一定在努力寻找他们需要的员工。然而,一些劳动经济学家认为,这样理解并不完整。)”讲述一般人和经济学家对劳动力短缺的不同理解,不同的理解可能会导致今后的政策失误;结合第四段“After jobs almost disappeared during the pandemic, we’re starting to see a rebound: In May, the industry created 292, 000 jobs, far outpacing other comers of the economy. Meanwhile, average weekly earnings have been rising faster. In other words, the market is working to resolve a shortage: When employers lift wages, they’re able to attract the employees they need. (在疫情期间,就业岗位几乎消失,我们开始看到反弹:5月份,该行业创造了29.2万个就业岗位,远远超过其他经济领域。与此同时,平均每周收入的增长速度也在加快。换句话说,市场正在努力解决短缺问题:当雇主提高工资时,他们就能吸引到他们需要的员工。)”和第六段“The bottom line is that, in the market, shortages are not universal. Simultaneous shortages and surpluses can come to the force across the economy at any given point, which is why broad-brush policies can be counterproductive(事与愿违的)(最重要的是,在市场上,短缺并非普遍存在。在任何时候,短缺和盈余都可能同时出现在整个经济中,这就是为什么笼统的政策可能适得其反)”可知,文章通过分析指出劳动力短缺是由市场调控的。因此A项“让时长修复劳动力短缺”可以作为本文的最佳标题。故选A。
D
Faced with an attempt by a new chatbot to imitate (模仿) his own songs, the musician Nick Cave delivered a strong response: It was “an absolutely horrible attempt”. He understood that AI was in its babyhood, but could only conclude that the true horror might be that “it will forever be in its babyhood”. While a robot might one day be able to create a song, he wrote, it would never grow beyond “a kind of burlesque (滑稽模仿)”, because robots-being composed of data-are unable to suffer, while songs arise out of suffering.
Fans of Cave and his band will agree that his music is inimitable, but that doesn’t mean they would necessarily be able to tell the difference. A few days before Cave’s remarks, experts were asked to distinguish between four genuine artworks and their AI imitations. Their conclusions were wrong five times out of 12, and they were only unitedly right in one of the four picture comparisons.
These are party games, but they point to an unfolding challenge that must be managed as a matter of urgency because, like it or not, Al art is upon us. The arrival of the human-impersonating ChatGPT might have increased general awareness, but artists across a wide range of disciplines are already exploring its potential, with the dancer Wayne McGregor and London’s Young Vic Theatre among those who have created AI-based works.
A strongly-worded report from Communications and Digital Committee (CDC) issued a wake-up call to the government, urging it to raise its game in educating future generations of tech-savvy professionals, and tackling key regulatory challenges. These included reviewing reforms to intellectual property law, strengthening the rights of performers and artists, and taking action to support the creative sector in adapting to the disturbances caused by swift and stormy technological change.
While developing Al is important, it should not be pursued at all costs, the CDC stressed. It deplored the failure of the Department for Digital, Culture, and Media to offer a defence against proposed changes to intellectual property law that would give copyright exemption (版权豁免) to any work, anywhere in the world, involving AI text and data mining.
The challenges of AI are both philosophical, as Cave suggested, and practical. They will unfold over the short and long term. State-of -the-art creative industries have a key role to play in shaping and exploring the philosophical ones, but they must have the practical help they require to survive and be successful. They need it now.
12. Why does the author mention the four picture comparisons in Paragraph 2
A. To stress the similarities between AI art and human art.
B. To argue that human art will be replaced by AI art.
C. To prove AI is stretching the boundaries of art.
D. To imply AI art cannot be underestimated.
13. What does the underlined word “deplored” in Paragraph 5 probably mean
A. Clearly analyzed. B. Bravely suffered.
C. Strongly criticized. D. Accurately perceived.
14. What can be inferred from the passage
A. Creative industries are responsible for causing the AI problem.
B. Tech professionals need more training to better understand AI art.
C. Some artists see AI as a tool even though it is a threat.
D. The quality of AI art dismisses concerns about intellectual property.
15. Which would be the best title for the passage
A. The Creative Thief: AI Makes Perfect Art
B. AI in Art: A Battle That Must Be Fought
C. A Great Opportunity: The Importance of AI on Art
D. The Rise of AI Art: An attempt to imitate songs
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲述了人工智能应用于艺术中的一些危害以及由此引发的一些抗争。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“A few days before Cave’s remarks, experts were asked to distinguish between four genuine artworks and their AI imitations. Their conclusions were wrong five times out of 12, and they were only unitedly right in one of the four picture comparisons. (在凯夫发表讲话前几天,专家们被要求区分四件真正的艺术品和它们的人工智能仿制品。他们的结论在12次中有5次是错误的,而且他们只在四张图片的对比中有一张是完全正确的。)”可知,使用AI创作出来的艺术品,专家们在分辨时都很难区别,说明AI创作出来的艺术品不容小看,结合第三段中的“These are party games, but they point to an unfolding challenge that must be managed as a matter of urgency because, like it or not, Al art is upon us. (这些都是派对游戏,但它们指向的是一个亟待解决的挑战,因为不管你喜不喜欢,AI艺术就在我们面前。)”可知,AI创作的艺术品产生的问题亟待解决,由此可知,不能低估了AI创作的艺术。故选D 项。
【13题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线单词前的“While developing Al is important, it should not be pursued at all costs, the CDC stressed. (通信和数字委员会强调,尽管开发人工智能很重要,但不应不惜一切代价。)”可知,CDC对不惜一切代价开发人工智能表示不满,结合划线单词后的“the failure of the Department for Digital, Culture, and Media to offer a defence against proposed changes to intellectual property law that would give copyright exemption (版权豁免) to any work, anywhere in the world, involving AI text and data mining.(数字、文化和媒体部未能对拟议中的知识产权法修改提出辩护,该修改将对世界上任何地方涉及人工智能文本和数据挖掘的任何作品给予版权豁免。)”可知,数字、文化和媒体部没有能够对知识产权法中拟将涉及人工智能文本和数据挖掘的任何作品给予版权豁免提出辩护,由此可知,CDC应该是对数字、文化和媒体部的做法也是表达不满,所以,该单词的意思应与“表达不满”意义相关,结合选项,该单词的意思应为“强烈批评”符合语境。故选C项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“The arrival of the human-impersonating ChatGPT might have increased general awareness, but artists across a wide range of disciplines are already exploring its potential, with the dancer Wayne McGregor and London’s Young Vic Theatre among those who have created AI-based works.(模仿人类的ChatGPT的到来可能已经提高了人们的普遍认识,但各行各业的艺术家已经在探索它的潜力,舞者韦恩·麦格雷戈和伦敦的年轻维克剧院都在创作基于人工智能的作品。)”可知,ChatGPT已经让人们对AI提高了认识,但是很多艺术家已经开始挖掘AI的潜力并开始基于AI创作作品,结合第四段中的“A strongly-worded report from Communications and Digital Committee (CDC) issued a wake-up call to the government, urging it to raise its game in educating future generations of tech-savvy professionals, and tackling key regulatory challenges.(通信和数字委员会(CDC)发布的一份措辞强硬的报告向政府敲响了警钟,敦促其提高教育下一代精通技术的专业人士的水平,并应对关键的监管挑战。)”可知,CDC发布的一份措辞强硬的报告向政府敲响警钟,敦促提高教育专业人士的水平并应对监管挑战,由此可知,尽管有些艺术家知道AI是一种威胁,但是仍然把人工智能当作一种工具。故选C项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据首段中的“Faced with an attempt by a new chatbot to imitate (模仿) his own songs, the musician Nick Cave delivered a strong response: It was “an absolutely horrible attempt”.(面对一个新的聊天机器人试图模仿他自己的歌曲,音乐家尼克·凯夫(Nick Cave)做出了强烈的回应:这是“一个绝对可怕的尝试”。)”可知,本文通过音乐家尼克·凯夫对机器人模仿他歌曲的回应引出本文的话题——AI应用于艺术之中,结合下文中介绍的AI应用于艺术会造成真假难辨、一些艺术家把AI当做创作的工具,甚至艺术家的知识产权受到影响等问题可知,AI应用于艺术造成很大的影响,由此引发的对AI应用于艺术所产生的影响的抗争也已经展开,结合尾段中的“The challenges of AI are both philosophical, as Cave suggested, and practical. They will unfold over the short and long term. State-of -the-art creative industries have a key role to play in shaping and exploring the philosophical ones, but they must have the practical help they require to survive and be successful. They need it now.(正如凯夫所言,人工智能面临的挑战既有哲学层面的,也有实践层面的。它们将在短期和长期内展开。最先进的创意产业在塑造和探索哲学产业方面发挥着关键作用,但它们必须得到生存和成功所需的实际帮助。他们现在就需要。)”可知,人工智能的发展同样也面临着挑战,由此可知,本文主要说明的是人工智能应用于艺术中的一些危害以及引发的一些抗争,所以本文的题目为“艺术中的人工智能:一场必须进行的战斗”可以概括本文的主题。故选B项。

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Why Do We Get Angry
Anger seems simple when we are feeling it, but the causes of anger are various. Knowing these causes can make us examine our behavior, and correct bad habits. The main reasons we get angry are triggering(触发))events, personality traits (特征) and our assessment of situations. ____16____
Triggering events for anger are so many that to describe them all would take hundreds of pages. However, here are some examples: being cut off in traffic, a deadline approaching, experiencing physical pain, and much more. ____17____ The reason why someone is triggered by something and others are not is often due to one’s personal history and psychological traits.
Each person, no matter who they are, has psychological imbalances. People who have personality traits that connect with competitiveness and low upset tolerance are much more likely to get angry. ____18____ Also, sometimes pre-anger does not have to do with a lasting condition, but rather a temporary state before a triggering event has occurred.
____19____ Sometimes even routine occurrences become sources of pre-anger, or anger itself. Sometimes ignorance and negative(消极的)outlooks on situations can create anger.
Anger is a particularly strong feeling and maybe people think that they have reasons to feel angry. ____20____ And it is best to know the reasons for anger to appear in order to prevent its presence. With these main reasons in mind, we can evaluate our level of anger throughout the day and prevent cases of outbursts by comprehending the reasons for our feelings.
A. But some types of situations can help us to get rid of the occurrence of anger.
B. Anger is rarely looked upon as a beneficial character trait, and is usually advised to reduce it.
C. Having these personality traits implies the pre-anger state, where anger is in the background of your mind.
D. Understanding these reasons will control our own anger if we are willing to evaluate ourselves with a critical eye.
E. However, anger can easily tum violent.
F. Our attitude and viewpoint on situations can create anger within us as well.
G. Not everyone acts the same in response to events, and that is why what triggers one person may or may not trigger another.
【答案】16. D 17. G 18. C 19. F 20. E
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章分析了导致人们生气的三个原因并指出如何防止愤怒爆发。
【16题详解】
上一句提到导致人们生气的三个主要原因: triggering(触发)events,personality traits(特征),our assessment of situations,下面的几段具体分析了这三个原因与生气的关系。故该句应该起承上启下的作用,故D选项:Understanding these reasons will control our own anger if we are willing to evaluate ourselves with a critical eye.(如果我们愿意用批判性的目光来评估自己的话,那么了解这些原因将会控制我们的愤怒。)承上启下,故选D。
【17题详解】
该空前面两句“Triggering events for anger are so many that to describe them all would take hundreds of pages. However, here are some examples: being cut off in traffic, a deadline approaching, experiencing physical pain, and much more.(引发愤怒的事件如此之多,以至于要用数百页的篇幅来描述它们。然而,这里有一些例子:交通堵塞,截止日期临近,经历身体疼痛等等。)”可知,引发愤怒的事件很多,以及下一句“The reason why someone is triggered by something and others are not is often due to one’s personal history and psychological traits.(有些人会被某事触发而其他人不会的原因通常是由于个人历史和心理特征)可知,某件事会激发一个人的怒气,但其他人却不会为此而生气的原因是由于个人的历史和心理特征。设空处承上启下,应当提到某件事会使某些人生气,但不会使别人生气这个现象,故G选项:Not everyone acts the same in response to events, and that is why what triggers one person may or may not trigger another.(人们对这些事情的反应不一样,这就导致使一个人生气的事情可能会让另一个人生气,也可能不会让另一个人生气。)承上启下,故选G。
【18题详解】
根据上句“People who have personality traits that connect with competitiveness and low upset tolerance are much more likely to get angry.(那些具有竞争精神和较低的烦躁容忍度的人更容易生气)”以及下句“Also, sometimes pre-anger does not have to do with a lasting condition, but rather a temporary state before a triggering event has occurred.(此外,有时前置愤怒与持续的条件无关,而是在触发事件发生之前的暂时状态。)”设空处承上启下,既要提到上一句中的那些性格特征,又要提到下一句中的pre-anger,C项:Having these personality traits implies the pre-anger state, where anger is in the background of your mind. (拥有这些个性特征意味着愤怒之前的状态,愤怒就在你的大脑背景中。)承上启下,故选C。
【19题详解】
根据后句“Sometimes even routine occurrences become sources of pre-anger, or anger itself. Sometimes ignorance and negative(消极的)outlooks on situations can create anger. (有时,即使是日常的事情也会成为预先愤怒的来源,或者愤怒本身。有时候,无知和消极的观点会导致愤怒。)”该空位于段首,引出下文,故F选项:Our attitude and viewpoint on situations can create anger within us as well.(我们的对情况的态度和看法也会在我们内心产生愤怒)是本段的主题句,概括全段内容,故选F。
【20题详解】
根据上句“Anger is a particularly strong feeling and maybe people think that they have reasons to feel angry (愤怒是一种特别强烈的感觉,也许人们认为他们有理由感到愤怒)”以及后句“And it is best to know the reasons for anger to appear in order to prevent its presence. (为了防止愤怒的出现,最好知道愤怒出现的原因。)” E项:However, anger can easily tum violent.(然而,愤怒很容易变成暴力)和上句构成转折关系,引出下文,说明为了为了防止愤怒的出现,最好知道愤怒出现的原因,符合语境。故选E。

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I remember the first time I met Roy. He was standing in the center of a group of boys talking and laughing. He was a cute boy known in the class for his kindness and generosity. My name is Daniel, a new boy in the class. Our whole family had moved from the north of England because of my father being offered a job here. I lost all my old friends and felt lonely at my new school.
Most students in my new class weren’t very interested in a shy new boy. Roy was one of the few people who were kind to me. He often invited me to join his particular group, and as a result, I started getting to know people. Roy and I became good friends. We trusted each other and we could talk about personal matters, things that were important to us.
But just under a year ago, Roy’s father was knocked over by a car, who died a few days later. His family had to move to a much smaller house in order to manage financially. Roy changed completely, becoming silent and moody, who seemed to lose all interest in his work. These days, Roy and I saw each other from time to time, but we were no longer close.
Last week our school had a big fair in order to raise money for a charity. It was very successful and by the end of the day, we had made about f500.Our class teacher, Mr. White, came and chatted to a group of us that included Roy, and held up a box for us to see. There’s£500 in here,” he said with a smile.
Having left something in the classroom, I went inside to get it, and found Roy holding a wallet in his hand. Seeing me, he walked out without saying a word. The next morning, we were told that the money had been stolen. Mr. White had left the box in the classroom for a few minutes, but when he came back it had disappeared.
This weekend morning, having thought about the situation for a while, I decided to ask Roy about the the theft and went to see him.

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Roy was out and I went upstairs to his bedroom to wait for him. Sitting in his room, I wondered whether Roy had stolen the money, but I really hoped it wasn’t him. To pass the time, I picked out a book to read. Surprisingly, a lot of paper notes dropped out of the book. It looked as if there was about 500 there. I was so shocked that I just stood there, holding the notes in my hands.
At that moment, the door swung open, and Roy walked in. My mouth fell open and I just looked at him with confusion. Seeing the notes in my hand, he froze with shock, as if rooted on the ground. Then he explained that he didn’t steal but earned the money by spending every weekend doing part-time jobs. Breathing a sigh of relief, I trusted him and offered him a heartfelt hug. The next day, the teacher declared that he was mistaken to forget locking the money into his locker. Roy and I smiled at each other with joy.
