Humans feed thusands f sngs t AI (人工智能). And it is able t analyse the basic infrmatin and recgnize patterns that can be used t create riginal music. Such AI-created music is similar t thse that any musician might cmpse.
Recently, an AI-pwered system, the Flw Machines, has released a sng Daddy’s Car. This system is able t analyse the cmpsers’ riginal ideas and cme up with mre ideas t assist them in cmpsing. The system tries t cmbine the human mind with AI.
Anther great inventin is Jukedeck, which wrks very easily. In rder t create a new piece, the user just needs t select items like the desired music style (flk, rck, etc.) and the md (sad r happy). After a few secnds, AI prvides a piece f music fr the user t dwnlad. Each user can create music tailred t his r her interest.
Sme musicians use AI t achieve what they culd nt d n their wn. Fr example, Yacht, an American pp grup, has used AI t break ut f their cmfrt zne and try t create smething different frm their previus sngs. Sn they have their new album, which cntains 10 sngs, all f which are very ppular.
The develpment f AI technlgy als cmes with sme cncerns. Sme human cmpsers fear that their wrk might be replaced by a machine. Sme thers are wrried abut music itself and the music industry, as AI is nw able t create music mre and mre similar t human-cmpsed music.
Faced with this challenge, n ne hand, human musicians need t remain creative; n the ther hand, they shuld understand hw t use these new tls t explre new frntiers. Perhaps the future rle f the human musicians will be t fcus n emtins, leaving the machines t take care f ther prcedures.
8. What is the new develpment abut AI in the text?
A. Its prgress in replacing humans.B. Its ability in music cmpsing.
C. Its influence n human emtins.D. Its fcus n changing human mind.
9. Why culd Yacht create the ppular new album?
A. Because they stuck t their frmer music style.
B. Because they went beynd themselves with AI.
C. Because they put in mre than ten riginal sngs.
D. Because they insisted n cmpsing by themselves.
10. What is the last paragraph mainly abut?
A. Prblems abut AI cmpsing.B. Limitatins f AI technlgy.
C. Challenges fr human cmpsers.D. Suggestins t human musicians.
11. Which wrd best describes the authr’s attitude tward AI technlgy?
A. Objective.B. Dubtful.C. UncaringD. Cnfused.

When Sphie left the grcery, it suddenly started raining — a heavy dwnpur, in fact. She had neither her jacket nr her umbrella.
Sphie held her paper bag ver her head and made a rush. The rain hit her face as she ran up the street. As she std waiting fr the lights t change, Sphie glanced dwn t see a child’s ty lying n the sidewalk. She lked arund, wndering wh might have drpped it, but the street was deserted. （空无一人的）What shuld she d? She culdn’t just leave it there. Sphie bent and picked up the ty — a grey elephant with a dirty label, and very wet. As the light went green, she had t make a quick decisin. She held the elephant tightly and hurried n her way t her ffice.
“Why did yu bring it with yu?” Gemma asked while Sphie pured a cffee. “When they realise they’ve lst it, they’ll prbably return t the place. Yu shuld’ve displayed it where yu fund it. Smewhere nticeable.”
That made sense. “It was getting cmpletely wet,” Sphie prtested, “It might have been destryed.”
“It might as well be, if yu can’t reunite it with its wner,” Gemma replied. “Sme tddler (学步儿童) is ging t have truble getting t sleep tnight withut their elephant.”
Oh, dear! Sphie had tried t d a gd thing, but acting n impulse (冲动) might nt have been the best chice. She decided t g back at lunch — find smewhere t set it up high. Fr the rest f the mrning she placed the elephant n the radiatr (暖气片) by her desk. At least it wuld be a bit drier by the time she tk it back. But at lunch time, anther heavy shwer arrived. She picked up the ty elephant and gave its large ears a rub.（用手或物体）擦，揉
