The miniseries (迷你剧), Animals with Cameras, produced by the BBC, was first aired in the UK last month. To explore animal stories “told” by the animals themselves, this nature documentary’s filmmakers worked with scientists to develop cameras that wild animals could wear.
“Never before have we seen such high-quality footage(连续镜头) directly from the animal’s point of view,” BBC Nature executive producer Fred Kaufman told PBS.“This miniseries greatly expands our comprehension of animal behavior and this camera technology opens up new possibilities for discovering so much more.”
Indeed, the groundbreaking technology provides a new perspective of the animal kingdom. New cameras with enough battery life to shoot for hours at a time were designed to be comfortable enough for animals to wear. The technical challenges didn’t stop there. Some animals were very curious about the equipment, with some even fighting each other for the chance to wear a camera. In the case of chimpanzees, “we had to create dummy (仿造的) cameras, so that every chimpanzee could get one” the miniseries’ wildlife cameraman Gordon Buchanan told Live Science.
For animals that were comfortable enough to be with human beings, the cameras could be fitted and removed by hand. But for others, the cameras came off automatically using a timed release and were collected afterward. This meant that the cameras can’t be easily broken or torn.
This nature documentary arose much attention. “Footage that captures these rare and exciting glimpses of animals’ hidden habits is important to scientists, but documentaries like Animals with Cameras also resonate with(引起共鸣) audiences, connecting them with the beauty—and peril(危险)—of wildlife in their natural environments,” Live Science noted.
4、What can we learn about Animals with Cameras according to the passage?
A.It is filmed by the wildlife experts.
B.It has helped scientists discover new species.
C.It shows animal stories from their perspective.
D.It is the first documentary using high quality footage.
5、Which word can best describe the new cameras used on animals?
A.Uncomfortable. B.Tough. C.Disposable. D.Battery-free.
6、Why is the case of chimpanzees mentioned in paragraph 3?
A.To reflect what weakness the camera technology has.
B.To present how filmmakers put cameras on chimpanzees.
C.To explain why chimpanzees were attracted by the device.
D.To show how filmmakers handle the challenges in shooting.
7、What is the best title for the passage?
A.See Life as an Animal B.Wildlife Enjoys Filming
C.Wildlife Tells New Stories D.Protect Animals by Cameras
ChatGPT became the hottest issue due to its ability to produce human-sounding essays, poetry, and screenplays on virtually any subject in seconds. Soon after ChatGPT was released, the potential for it to be misused to do things such as spread misinformation and write junk mails became apparent. Schools and educators also have warned of the potential for students to use it to write essays or other work they have been assigned. Last December, the software passed all three parts of the U.S. Medical Licensing Examination as part of a research experiment.
So the startup, OpenAI behind the viral chatbot, revealed a tool for detecting text generated by artificial intelligence amid growing concerns the technology will be abused by cheaters, junk mail senders and others. OpenAI said that its so-called AI classifier was designed to help people distinguish between text written by a human versus a range of artificial intelligence programs—not just ChatGPT.
OpenAI said it had schools in mind when developing its latest classifier tool. “We recognize that identifying AI-written text has been an important point of discussion among educators, and equally important is recognizing the limits and impacts of AI-generated text classifiers in the classroom,” it said.
The classifier isn’t good enough on its own, though it can be used to go with methods that educators, employers and others rely on to determine the source of a piece of text. In evaluations, the new tool correctly identified 26% of AI-written text as “likely AI-written”, while it also had false positives 9% of the time in which it incorrectly labeled human-written text as AI-written. Another problem is that the tool can’t easily tell if a list of facts—U.S. state capitals for example—was written by a person or AI, because the correct answer would be the same. AI-written text can also be edited to escape the classifier.
“While it is impossible to reliably detect all AI-written text, classifiers like ours can be updated and re-trained based on successful attacks,” OpenAI said. “But it is unclear whether detection has an advantage in the long-term.”
8、ChatGPT’s passing the U.S. Medical Licensing Exam is mentioned to?
A.account for its operating principles B.illustrate its complex structure
C.emphasize its growing popularity D.warn against its potential danger
9、What’s the function of AI classifier?
A.Deepening the impact of AI writers.
B.Identifying the texts generated by AI.
C.Promoting the use of AI in classroom discussion.
D.Arousing educators’ awareness of AI-related technology.
10、What can be concluded from the evaluation of AI classifier?
A.It is a work-in-progress. B.It is good at storing factual information.
C.It can help a journalist to edit a text. D.It is a reliable educational tool.
11、What does OpenAI think of AI classifier?
A.It will be reliable after continuous self-update and retraining.
B.Whether it can help educators in the long-term is out of question.
C.Whether it can solve the problems as intended remains a question.
D.It will succeed in detecting all human-written texts in the near future.
My 21-year-old niece, a second-year undergraduate, mentioned that she watches video lectures offline at twice the normal speed. Struck by this, I asked some other students I know. Many now routinely speed up their lectures when learning offline—often by 1.5 times, sometimes by even more. Speed learning is not for everyone, but there are websites where students discuss how odd it will be once they return to the lecture theatre. One contributor wrote: “Normal speed now sounds like drunk speed.”
Education was adapting to the digital world long before Covid-19 but, as with so many other human activities, the pandemic has given learning a huge push towards the virtual. Overnight, schools and universities closed and teachers and students had to find ways to do what they do only via the internet. “This is a time for schools and systems to reimagine education without schooling or classrooms,” says Professor Yong Zhao. Dr Jim Watterston in Australia thinks that, while the traditional classroom is still alive and well, education needs to be more adventurous and flexible. Earlier this year, Zhao and Watterston co-authored a paper in which they identified some major changes that should happen in education post-lockdown.
The first concerns the content, which should emphasize such things as creativity, critical thinking and leadership, rather than the collection and storage of information. “For humans to progress in the age of smart machines, it is essential that they do not compete with machines”, they wrote, “Instead, they need to be more human.”
The second is that students should have more control over their learning, with the teacher’s role shifting from instructor to supervisor of learning resources, advisor and motivator. This is where so-called “active learning” comes in with a growing body of research suggesting that comprehension and memory are better when students learn in a hands-on way—through discussion and interactive technologies, for example. It’s also where the concept of “productive failure” applies. Professor Manu Kapurin argues that students learn better from their own or others’ failed attempts to solve a problem before or even instead of being told how to solve it.
If the progress of the times is unable to hold back the coming revolution in education, it seems unlikely that the traditional classroom is going to have any luck in its attempts trying to turn back the clock. As Laurillard puts it, “It took a global pandemic to drive home what we’ve been saying for 20 years.”
12、By giving examples of “speed learning” in the first paragraph, the author wants to show that _____.
A.digital world is dramatically reforming the way of learning.
B.speed learning completely replaces normal speed learning.
C.returning to the lecture theatre is strange after speed learning.
D.education begins to adapt to digital world after Covid-19.
13、According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?
A.It is essential for smart machines to be more human.
B.Students should possess more information about creativity.
C.Students value others’ failure over their own failure.
D.“Active learning” calls for diverse ways of involvement.
14、According to Zhao and Watterston, the major changes in education should include _____.
①learning mode ②learning motive ③learning attitude ④learning focus
A.①④ B.②③ C.①③ D.②④
15、According to the passage, what does the author most probably agree with?
A.Speed learning harms students’ learning efficiency.
B.The coming revolution in education is irreversible.
C.Teachers will play a less important role in the future.
D.The traditional classrooms will eventually disappear.
二、七选五
16、 If you are of the “no regrets” school of life, you might think that all this regret is a recipe for unhappiness. But that isn’t the case. True, letting yourself be overwhelmed by regret is indeed bad for you. But going to the other extreme may be even worse. To extinguish your regrets doesn’t free you from shame or sorrow; it consigns you to make the same mistakes again and again. To truly get over our guilt requires that we put regret in its proper place.
As uncomfortable as it is, regret is an amazing cognitive feat. It requires that you go back to a past scenario, imagine that you acted differently to change it, and with that new scenario in mind, arrive at a different present—and then, compare that fictional present with the one you are experiencing in reality. ①_____ You would remember your own pettiness and irritability, and then imagine yourself showing more patience, being kind instead of hurtful at key moments. Then you would fast-forward to today and see how your relationship could be flourishing instead of languishing.
②_____ Pink says they come in four basic varieties, and an instance of regret may involve just one or a combination. Wishing you’d been kinder to your partner is an example of a connection regret, in which you lament behavior that harmed an important relationship, such as spoiling a romance or neglecting your bond with relatives before they died.
Many connection regrets overlap with moral regrets, which can come about after you violate your own values. For example, you may pride yourself on being a loving person, and thus regret not living up to this image in the relationship you harmed. Moral regrets can also involve just yourself. ③_____
Pink’s other two categories of regrets involve life choices. Foundation regrets are those in which you did something that affected the course of your life in a way you don’t like. A classic example is wishing you had stayed in school. ④_____. They are all about inaction and forgone opportunities. This is what you feel when you kick yourself for not taking a chance, as in wishing you had just gone up to that attractive person and introduced yourself.
⑤_____ Regret is implicated in depression and anxiety, and excessive regret can adversely affect your hormones and immune system. In 2013, researchers asked one group of participants in an experiment to describe “your most burdensome regret” right before going to bed; this group took 61 percent longer to get to sleep than a group told to think about a typical day.
But regret doesn’t have to be left unmanaged. The trick is not to remove the bad feeling; it’s to acknowledge it and use it for learning and improvement. Instead of letting the specter of your failed relationship make you miserable, by simply wishing it had tuned out differently you can be honest with yourself about what went wrong and use that knowledge to enjoy better relationships in the future.
A.Not all regrets are the same of course.
B.Meanwhile, boldness regrets are the opposite.
C.Regret may hurt, but obsessing over them is destructive.
D.Your regret can teach you to become smarter and more successful — if you let it.
E.Unanalyzed and unmanaged, any variety of regret can be poison for your well-being.
F.Maybe you regret not living up to your commitment to your health when you ate a whole pizza or skipped the gym.
G.For example, if today your relationship with your partner has soured, your regret might mentally take you back to last year.

One day, when I was reading, I received a call from the principal (校长) of my high school to invite me to give a talk as a representative of alumni association (校友会). He asked me to speak to the group the next morning. I felt so honored to have got such an opportunity and immediately replied yes. But after the call, I became nervous and panicky.
The whole night, I polished my speech again and again, and practiced before a mirror until I could deliver the speech fluently. Even though I had made full preparations, I could not sleep with great anxiety. What if words failed me and didn’t attract audience at all? What if I forgot the words in the middle of the speech?... I was hesitating to call the principal with regret and tell him that I could not come. Finally, I gathered some courage to go. I thought, “If I miss this opportunity, surely the school will never invite me again to any of their programs.”
Anyway, I reached the school on time. Before giving the talk, my whole body was trembling. When my turn came and I started speaking, my heartbeat increased and my mouth went dry. I wasn’t even able to read the written speech properly. I was not aware of where I was standing and what I was reading. I just managed to finish the speech in a low voice. That was the day when I realized my biggest weakness, Public Speaking Anxiety.

10、答案：A
解析：推理判断题。根据第四段The classifier isn’t good enough on its own, though it can be used to go with methods that educators, employers and others rely on to determine the source of a piece of text. In evaluations, the new tool correctly identified 26% of AI-written text as “likely AI-written”, while it also had false positives 9% of the time in which it incorrectly labeled human-written text as AI-written. Another problem is that the tool can’t easily tell if a list of facts—U.S. state capitals for example—was written by a person or AI, because the correct answer would be the same. AI-written text can also be edited to escape the classifier.(这个分类器本身还不够好,不过它可以用来配合教育工作者、雇主和其他人用来确定一段文本来源的方法。在评估中,新工具正确地将26%的人工智能书写的文本识别为“可能是人工智能书写的”,而在将人类书写的文本错误地标记为人工智能书写的情况下,它也有9%的误报。另一个问题是,该工具不能轻易地判断美国和其他国家的一系列事实。例如,州首府—是由人或人工智能写的,因为正确答案是一样的。人工智能编写的文本也可以编辑)可知,人工智能分类器的评估仍在进行中。故选A项。
11、答案：C
解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段"While it is impossible to reliably detect all AI written text, classifiers like ours can be updated and re–trained based on successful attacks," OpenAI said. "But it is unclear whether detection has an advantage in the long-term."(OpenAI表示, "虽然不可能可靠地检测出所有人工智能编写的文本,但像我们这样的分类器可以根据成功的攻击进行更新和重新训练。但目前尚不清楚检测是否具有长期优势。")可知,OpenAI认为这个分类器目前在一定程度上可以检测出一部分人工智能编写的文本,但是在未来能否检测出人工智能编写的文本,就很难说了,所以这个分类器是否能像预期的那样解决问题仍然是一个问题。A. It will be reliable after continuous self-update and retraining.经过不断的自我更新和再培训才会可靠;B. Whether it can help educators in the long-term is out of question.从长远来看,它是否能帮助教育工作者是毫无疑问的;C.

13、答案：D
解析：推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段The second is that students should have more control over their learning, with the teacher's role shifting from instructor to supervisor of learning resources, advisor and motivator. This is where so-called "active learning" comes in with a growing body of research suggesting that comprehension and memory are better when students learn in a hands-on way—through discussion and interactive technologies, for example.(二是学生应该对自己的学习有更多的控制权,教师的角色从指导者转变为学习资源的监督者、顾问和激励者。这就是所谓的"主动学习"的来源,越来越多的研究表明,当学生以实践的方式学习时—例如通过讨论和互动技术---理解和记忆会更好)可知,“主动学习”需要多种参与方式,故选D。
14、答案：A
解析：细节理解题。根据文章第三段The first concerns the content, which should emphasize such things as creativity, critical thinking and leadership, rather than the collection and storage of information.(首先是内容,内容应该强调创造力、批判性思维和领导力,而不是信息的收集和存储)以及文章第四段The second is that students should have more control over their learning, with the teacher's role shifting from instructor to supervisor of learning resources, advisor and motivator. This is where so-called "active learning" comes in with a growing body of research suggesting that comprehension and memory are better when students learn in a hands-on way—through discussion and interactive technologies, for example.(二是学生应该对自己的学习有更多的控制权,教师的角色从指导者转变为学习资源的监督者、顾问和激励者。这就是所谓的"主动学习"的来源,越来越多的研究表明,当学生以实践的方式学习时—例如通过讨论和互动技术—理解和记忆会更好)可知,他们认为教育的改变主要应该是在内容和模式上。故选A。
15、答案：B
解析：推理判断题。根据文章最后一段If the progress of the times is unable to hold back the coming revolution in education, it seems unlikely that the traditional classroom is going to have any luck in its attempts trying to turn back the clock. As Laurillard puts it, "It took a global pandemic to drive home what we've been saying for 20 years."(如果时代的进步无法阻挡即将到来的教育改革,那么传统课堂似乎不太可能在试图让时光倒流的尝试中有任何运气。正如劳里拉德所言, "我们20年来一直在说的话,只有一场全球大流行才能让人明白。")可知,作者认为教育改革是不可逆转的。A. Speed learning harms students' learning efficiency.速度学习损害学生的学习效率;B. The coming revolution in education is irreversible.即将到来的教育革命是不可逆转的;C. Teachers will play a less important role in the future.教师在未来将扮演一个不太重要的角色;D. The traditional classrooms will eventually disappear.传统的教室最终会消失。故选B。
16、答案：GAFBE
解析：①上文“It requires that you go back to a past scenario, imagine that you acted differently to change it, and with that new scenario in mind, arrive at a different present—and then, compare that fictional present with the one you are experiencing in reality.(这需要你回到过去的场景,想象你采取了不同的行动来改变它,伴随想象那个新的场景,得出一个不同的现在,然后将虚构的现在与你在现实中经历的现在进行比较)”说明遗憾需要你回到过去的场景,并想象可能发生的改变,G项“例如,如果今天你和伴侣的关系恶化了,你的遗憾可能会让你回到去年。”举例说明遗憾可能会让人回到过去的场景,承接上文,符合题意。故选G。
②下文“Pink says they come in four basic varieties, and an instance of regret may involve just one or a combination.(Pink说它们有四种基本的变体,而遗憾的例子可能只涉及一种或多种组合)”说明遗憾有不同的类型,A项“当然,并不是所有的遗憾都是一样的。”说明并不是所有的遗憾都一样,引出下文,符合题意。故选A。
③上文“Many connection regrets overlap with moral regrets, which can come about after you violate your own values.(许多联系遗憾与道德遗憾重叠,道德遗憾可能是在你违反自己的价值观之后产生的)”说明道德遗憾涉及自身,可能在违反自己的价值观后产生,F项“当你吃了一整块披萨或略过健身房时,也许你遗憾没有履行对健康的承诺。”举例说明违反自己价值观后产生的遗憾,承接上文,符合题意。故选F。
④上文“Pink's other two categories of regrets involve life choices. Foundation regrets are those in which you did something that affected the course of your life in a way you don't like. A classic example is wishing you had stayed in school(Pink的另外两类遗憾涉及人生选择。基础遗憾是指你做了一些你不喜欢的事情,影响了你的生活进程。一个典型的例子是,希望自己留在学校)”提出了Pink的另外两类遗憾,且上文提出了基础遗憾,由此推知,空处应提出另一种遗憾。B项“同时,显著的遗憾恰恰相反。”引出下文,符合题意。boldness呼应上文foundation。故选B。
⑤下文“Regret is implicated in depression and anxiety, and excessive regret can adversely affect your hormones and immune system.(遗憾与抑郁和焦虑有关,过度遗憾会对你的激素和免疫系统产生不利影响)”说明过度遗憾会影响身体健康,E项“未经分析和管理,任何形式的遗憾都可能对你的健康有害。”说明未经分析和管理的遗憾可能对健康有害,引出下文,符合题意。故选E。

32、答案：①because/as②be tempted③where④trying⑤to charm⑥so that⑦dissatisfied⑧have started⑨by⑩should
解析：①考查连词。句意:你认为她一定是个模特,因为她所有照片看起来都很专业。分析句子结构可知,前后两个分句之间是因果关系,根据句意是表原因,用连词because/as引导从句。故填because/as。
②考查动词语态。句意:你可能会忍不住接受她的请求并向她问好,但你最好三思,因为你可能会被骗!分析句子结构可知,主语you和tempt之间是被动关系,所以应be done构成含情态动词的被动语态。故填be tempted。
③考查定语从句。句意:Catfishing是一种网络欺骗,指某人在社交媒体平台上伪装成别人。分析句子结构可知,先行词是online cheat,在从句中作地点状语,用关系副词where引导从句。故填where。
④考查动名词。句意:就像电影里一样,大多数Catfishing欺骗都是从诱饵试图用甜言蜜语让受害者爱上自己开始的。分析句子结构可知,本句已有谓语动词start,所以try应该用非谓语形式,和逻辑主语catfish是主动关系,故用动名词的一般式和catfish构成动名词的复合结构作start with的宾语。故填trying。
⑤考查动词不定式。句意:有些诱饵试图诱使受害者相信自己,然后向他们要钱。分析句子结构可知,attempt to do"尝试做……",是固定搭配。故填to charm。
⑥考查连词。句意:还有一些人会要求受害者提供敏感信息或私人照片,然后利用这些信息敲诈受害者,让他们给他们钱。分析句子结构可知,根据句意是表目的,用连词词组so that引导目的状语从句。故填so that。
⑦考查形容词。句意:但在某些情况下,诱饵只是孤独的人,对自己的生活不满意,利用社交媒体生活在另一个现实中。be dissatisfied with"对……不满"是固定短语,此处省略be,用形容词作状语。故填dissatisfied。
⑧考查动词时态。句意:在社交媒体上,即使你已经开始与某人建立关系,你也可以保持匿名。分析句子结构可知,本句是after引导的状语从句,从句中缺少谓语动词,主语you与start两者是主动关系,根据句意,强调过去对现在造成的影响,用现在完成时。故填have started。
⑨考查介词。句意:2021年,由于新冠肺炎疫情迫使许多人在网上寻找爱情,与2020年相比,catfishing等浪漫计划增长了80%。分析句子结构可知,rise by意为"增加了",是固定搭配。故填by。
⑩考查情态动词。句意:然而,每个人都应该小心隐藏在阴影中的鲶鱼。分析句子结构可知,空后是动词原形,所以空处应是助动词或者情态动词,根据句意,此处表达"应该"之意,用情态动词should。故填should。
33、答案：
Dear the head librarian,
I’m delighted to have the chance to express my opinion about the choice of the background image for the English corner. As far as I am concerned, I choose the second one. The reasons are as follows.
First, the second image is easy to understand, highly symbolic, with an originality that anyone can swim in the ocean of books at the English corner. Its visual appeal can make people spontaneously come to take part in the reading there, making students feel the atmosphere of the reading and learning English.
Second, the pattern is clear and smooth, the colors are simple and generous, with an appropriate and profound impression to stimulate students’ interest in English learning.
I hope my suggestion will be accepted by you. Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
34、答案：
After my speech, I met with the principal and explained what happened to me. Instead of blaming me, he comforted me warmly. He told me that this happened to everyone. Even great speakers faced the same things when they started. He encouraged me to practice more and not to give up. And he even suggested that I come again next time. With his encouragement, I made up my mind to overcome the problem of public speaking anxiety. I was greatly convinced that I could do better next time.
Around one month later, I was invited to give another speech. After a month of practice, this time I was feeling comfortable and confident. It turned out that my speech was appreciated by the principal as well as the teachers because I was able to get my idea across to them. They encouraged me and praised my efforts, which made me very happy. After delivering it successfully, I became more confident. I was grateful to this opportunity because it made me realize that everything is possible if we have the courage to take the first step.
