A gift in a wrong place brings unexpected happiness.
Since I came to my new neighbourhood, I have had the pleasure of meeting a few neighbours. They seem to be quite 36 people. For Christmas, I thought I would do something nice for each of the neighbours that I know. I sat down and 37 .There were nine neighbours, and I also knew which houses they lived in.
However, I decided to 38 one more person to my list, the lady I met every morning walking to work as I drove down the street. She always managed a sweet smile and a hearty wave (挥手), 39 I had no idea which house she lived in.
My gift idea was to make small 40 baskets and leave them on each of my neighbor’s front porches(门廊) the night of Christmas Eve. I kept the last one for the friendly lady, since I was still not exactly sure where she lived— 41 the house down about where I met her each morning. Finally I decided to put it there. My neighbors enjoyed the baskets and a couple even came by to 42 me.
This morning on my way to work, I placed my mail in the mailbox and noticed a Thank You card. I opened it and read the 43 which really caught me by surprise. The card said, “ Thank you for those lovely apples and strawberries you left on the porch of Tod. He 44 on January 19, but he never stopped talking about how nice it was that someone 45 him in his time of illness. He really enjoyed it.”
I was very 46 I had no idea who Tod was or that he had been seriously 47 . I had left that nice lady’s basket on Tod’s porch by accident. I believe that Tod never expected to have that basket. I feel 48 that the nice lady did not get a basket from me this Christmas, but I believe that if she knew what had happened,she would 49 me.
I feel lucky to have helped Tod be more cheerful in his last days. This just makes me further believe that sometimes 50 in life are beautiful.

One person doesn’t travel for the same reason as another.But most people enjoy seeing countries that are different from their own.They also like to meet new people and to taste new food.

For as long as humans have appeared, we have been the most intelligent species (种类)on Earth.Monkeys know how to use simple tools.Elephants can be taught how to count.But things like art, literature(文学), the Internet, and space travel have only been made possible by the amazing intelligence of humans.And yet, there are some who believe that we can create machines that can think and feel just like we do.Artificial intelligence(人工智能), or Al, is defined(定义为)by Merriam-Webster as “the capability of a machine to imitate(模仿)intelligent human behavior”.
AI is around us every day.From Apple’s voice-activated assistant Siri to the software algorithms(算法)that shipping companies use to deal with deliveries(投递), AI is very much a part of our lives.
But who do we put so much effort into creating machines that can think the way we do? For one thing, AI can make our lives much easier.Imagine being able to be in a car, tell it your destination, and sit back in comfort as the AI-guided self-driving car takes you there.We’re already getting there Changsha became the first city in China to roll out self-driving taxis in April 2020.
However, there are risks.What if we somehow produced an artificial intelligence that was smarter than us? How would it behave toward us? These are the kinds of difficult questions that AI researchers ask themselves all the time.
Apart from the risks, it is already clear that AI is here to stay.Only time will tell if it will lead as into a new age of prosperity(繁荣), or be our end.
( )57. The first paragraph is written to .
A.explain how animals are intelligent B. show what fields Al can be used in
C.prove the possibility of space travel D.explain how intelligence makes humans special
( )58. Which of the following might not make use of AI?
A. Voice-activated assistants. B. Software algorithms for deliveries.
C. Machines that produce goods. D. Self-driving taxis.
( )59.What is one of the risks about AI?
A.We might not be able to live without it. B. We aren’t sure how AI will behave toward us.
C. AI will never be as smart as humans. D. It is not easy to put Al into daily use.
( )60. What’s the writer’s attitude towards Al?
A. It will be good. B. It will be bad.
C. It’s going to be part of our future. D. It’s risky and horrible.

He was hiding behind another tree but stepped out to meet me.
“Who are you?” I asked, staring at him.
“Ben Gunn,” he answered, and his voice sounded rough and strange.His skin was burnt nearly black by the sun and his clothes were made from pieces of a ship’s sail.Poor Ben Gunn,” he went on. “Alone for three years.”
“Were you shipwrecked(船遇难)?”I asked.
“No, my friend,” he said.“Marooned.”
I had heard the word before, and knew it meant a cruel(残忍的) punishment often used by pirates(海盗)
leaving a man alone on some distant, empty island

I began to think that I had found a friend, and I answered him at once. ‘It’s not Flint’s ship any more. Flint is dead, but there are still some of Flint’s men aboard, and that’s bad news for us’
“A man with one leg?” he asked, fear in his voice.
“Silver?” I asked.
“Yes, Silver,” he said, ‘that was his name.’
“He’s the cook, and their leader,too.” And I told him the fight between Flint and the cook, and the danger we were now in.
“You’re in trouble, Jim,” he said when I’d finished. “Well, Ben Gunn will help you.Will your squire(乡绅)be generous if I do, do you think? I don’t want him to give me a job, but will he give me one thousand pounds out of money that’s really mine?”
“I’m sure he will,” I said.
( )61.What were Ben’s clothes made of ?
A.fishing net B a piece of ship’s sail C.a piece of old cloth D.a blanket
