Years earlier, I'd been a trainee in a lab, which stuck to a traditional format. The lab head would spend much time asking the presenter a series of pointed questions. Presenters would need to know extremely small details about articles they were citing and present their research using picture-perfect analyses and graphs. So the presentation was an untoward thing to almost anyone.

When I started my own lab, I decided to change the routine by being friendly and welcoming while asking my trainees challenging questions about their science. But for 6 years, I felt I hadn't created the lab environment I wanted.

The turning point came during the pandemic. It hit home to me that one's life isn't endless and that I need to make the most of the time I have. I decided that I wanted to become a better professor—to make a mark by training the next generation of scientists.

In my personal life, I had benefited from listening to talks by motivational speakers. So I decided to start there. At the next lab meeting, I showed my students a video about happiness, hoping it would help them in their personal life and give us something light to discuss. I wasn't sure how they'd respond, but I was pleased to discover that they were interested in discussing the advice in the video afterward. In the end, I asked them whether they'd like to do similar activities in future meetings, and they said yes.

From then on, I began every lab meeting with a 20-minute team building session. My lab members and I do many activities—including analyzing and appreciating poetry. These sessions have eased tensions and opened minds, helping foster more participation later in the meeting.

So far, I have been hopeful about the lab environment we're creating. My greatest wish is to see my trainees become their best selves, understand who they are and what they want as well as reach their career goals. I am proud of the change and the difference I've made.

24. What does the underlined word “untoward” in paragraph 1 probably mean?

A. Harmonious. B. Embarrassing. C. Stressful. D. Appealing.

25. How did the pandemic affect the author?

A. He no longer wasted his time.

B. He decided to become a professor.

C. He realized the benefit of inspiring talks.

D. He wanted to make more contributions.

26. What is paragraph 4 mainly about?

A. The change the author made.

B. A video the students liked.

C. The benefit the author got from others.

D. A proposal the students put forward.

27. What message does the author mainly want to deliver?

D. Motivational talks are the origin of inspiration.

ChatGPT is an advanced AI chatbot trained by OpenAI which interacts in a conversational way. The dialogue form makes it possible for ChatGPT to answer follow-up questions, admit its mistakes, challenge incorrect places, and reject improper requests.

It has reached 100 million users just two months after launching, according to analysts. ChatGPT has taken the world by storm since it launched last November. The AI chatbot answers questions online in text format in a human-like way, and it can also write its responses in different styles, for example, that of a student writing an essay.

GPT technology can help people write code quickly and accurately with the help of natural language. GPT can take a text prompt and generate code that is tailored to the given task. This technology has the potential to cut down development time, as it can generate code quickly and accurately. It can also help reduce the risk of errors, as GPT is capable of generating code that can be tested and used immediately.

Some teachers are worried about how many of their pupils are using it to do their homework and have written to parents warning them about it. Others say they can spot its essay, and there are now tools being released which claim to be able to differentiate(区别) human text from that written by artificial intelligence.

But the cat is out of the bag, and now the International Baccalaureate (IB国际文凭课程) says its students can take advantage of the tech, just like using a calculator to work out a maths problem, as long as they admit to it by both crediting ChatGPT in the text and adding a reference note at the end.

Good news for students, but ChatGPT's knowledge database only goes up to September 2021, so it's not very useful on topical subjects, and as it gets its information from the internet, it can also be inaccurate.

28. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?

A. The potential of ChatGPT. B. The operation of ChatGPT.

C. The benefits of ChatGPT. D. The development of ChatGPT.

29. Why do some teachers write to parents?

A. ChatGPT makes academic to be honest.

B. ChatGPT can write without recognition.

C. The content of ChatGPT are entirely new.

D. Many pupils use ChatGPT to do homework.

30. What can we know from what IB says about ChatGPT?

A. It can be used under certain conditions.

B. Teachers can tell human text from that by AI.

C. Its knowledge database is updated to this day.

D. Pupils use it to do homework without thinking.

31. What is the author's attitude towards students' using ChatGPT?

A. Subjective. B. Supportive. C. Indifferent. D. Objective.

D

Cotton bags have become a means for brands, retailers, and supermarkets to promote a planet-friendly concept—or, at least, to show that the companies are aware of the overuse of plastic in packaging. “There's a trend in New York right now where people are carrying cotton bags from local bakeries, hardware stores, or their favorite steakhouses,” said designer Rachel Comey.

So far, so earth-friendly? Not exactly. It turns out the wholehearted embrace of cotton bags may actually have created a new problem.

A organic cotton bag needs to be used 20,000 times to offset (抵消) its overall i impact of production, according to a 2021 study by the Ministry of Environment and Food of Denmark. That is equal to daily use for 54 years—for just one bag. Even when a bag does make it, most coloring matters used to print logos and decorations onto them are PVC-based and thus not recyclable in waste treatment factories.

That's not to say cotton is worse than plastic, or that the two should even be compared. While cotton can use pesticides and has dried up rivers because of water consumption, lightweight plastic bags use greenhouse gas-emitting fossil fuels, never break down, and block up the waterways.

Some brands are turning to other fabric solutions. British designer Ally Capellino recently swapped cotton for straw, while designer Anya Hindmarch introduced a new version of her original bag, this time made from recycled water bottles. In the end, the simplest solution may be the most obvious. “Not every product needs a bag,” Comey said.

32. Why on earth do companies offer cotton bags?

A. To provide convenience to their customers.

B. To cut down on the use of plastic packaging.

C. To advertise themselves as eco-friendly ones.

D. To promote the concept of protecting the earth.

33. What do we know about the cotton bags?

A. They can be used for over five decades.

B. They do much harm to the environment.

C. They have logos printed with natural materials.

D. They can be recycled in waste treatment factories.

34. How does the production of plastic bags affect the environment?

A. It consumes too much water. B. It saves the use of fossil fuels.

C. It pollutes the earth's atmosphere. D. It increases the use of pesticides.

35. Which might be the best title for the text?

A. Plastic Bags Beat Cotton Bags B. A Revolution for Bag Designers

C. How to Choose Bags for Yourself D. Less Packaging, Better Environment

Eight-year-old Kayzen Hunter visits Waffle House every weekend to have breakfast with his family. They always choose to sit in Devonte Gardner's section, because they get the best care from their favorite waiter.

The family instantly felt close to Gardner, who would greet Kayzen with a high-five every time they entered the restaurant. Kayzen never needed to say his order again, because Gardner already knew it by heart. The family really believes he's the nicest person ever, which is why they were eager to help him when they learned his story.

One day, while dining at the restaurant with his grandfather John Donofrio, Kayzen discovered that behind Gardner's kindness and warmth were a lot of personal struggles. At the time, Gardner asked the pair if they knew where he could buy an affordable car to use to get to work. It turned out the waiter had been walking a long distance to and from work every day. He and his family, consisting of a wife and two young daughters, were living in a motel (汽车旅馆) room after their apartment became unsuitable to live in. They had been living in a motel for months.

Kayzen couldn't erase his friend's story from his mind, so he immediately told his mom about it when he got home. “We have to start a GoFundMe page and help Gardner get a car!” he kept saying. He didn't give up on the idea until his mom Vittoria gave in. Their goal was to get $5, 000 in donations so Gardner could purchase a car. Vittoria and her husband were eager to help their son achieve the goal, especially since they had the same experience years ago. It took a long time to rebuild their lives, but they were able to bounce back. Now, they wanted to help Gardner do the same.

A local news station picked up the story, and then more donations began pouring in. Soon, they achieved their goal, $5,000, and the number kept increasing. They now had over $100, 000 in donations for Gardner and his family. The money was more than enough for a car, and would enable Gardner and his family to move out of the motel and live in a more comfortable space for over a year. Soon, they thought it was time to let Gardner know what they had done for him, so they visited Gardner and his family on a sunny day.

Upon discovering what Kayzen had done, Gardner wept. He expressed his thankfulness to all the people who had helped him and his family. Now they had over $100, 000 in donations to help them bounce back. After renting a simple apartment and purchasing a car. Gardner went to work at ease and lived comfortably with his family. After he was no longer worried about his life, he thought he should put forward this act of kindness, so he gave the extra money to these who were in need like him, and he hoped someone would continue this great circle.
