A
There is a day in the life with AI, wh fllws yur mve: the way yu travel, the fd yu eat, hw yu spend yur mney, the news yu read and yur scial interactins...
7a.m Yu wake up and glance at yur iPhne, which unlcks itself using facial recgnitin
Apple’s Face ID changes yur face t a set f numbers that act as yur wn unique identifier. This bimetric prtrait is nt set in stne-it uses AI t track changes in yur appearance, updating its mdel if yu grw a beard, change yur makeup style r get lder and it als detects whether yur eyes are pen and yur attentin is directed at yur phne.
8:30a.m Yu drive t wrk in yur electric car
Cars such as the Tesla can d mst f the rdinary aspects f driving. The vehicle’s AI system cllects data frm eight cameras, identifies bstacles, lanes, intersectins and traffic lights and decides what actin t take, whether mving skillfully int an awkward parking spt r vertaking a slw lrry. But self-driving cars knw nly hw t deal with situatins they have seen befre and an nging challenge is hw t equip them fr rare and unexpected events.
4:30p.m Yur phne rings with a message frm yur Amazn Ring drbell-a package has been delivered t yur drstep
Last year, abut ne in five husehlds in the UK reprted having an AI-based hme security system. Amazn Ring uses a mtin-activated camera, heat sensr and radar and uses cmputer visin sftware t make users different when a persn, r a package, is utside their prperty. Humans have a heavy heat signature and with the radar, the bject mving in 3D spaces can be detected.
9:30p.m Yu scrll (滚动) thrugh a newspaper article that cntains a special ad
As yu read news articles, scrll thrugh scial media, make Ggle searches and buy things nline, yu leave a trail f clues abut wh yu are, what yu might want t spend yur mney n-that is incredibly valuable fr digital advertisers. AI sift (筛) this data fr insights int yur age, gender, lifestyle, incme and yur hbbies. This allws cmpanies such as Ggle t serve up specific, targeted adverts that pp up as yu scrll thrugh a news article.
1. Which f the fllwing is the disadvantage f electric cars?
A. Tendency t cut in.B. Speeding n the lane.
C. Uncntrlled parking areas.D. Lack f infrmatin abut emergencies.
2. What can we learn abut AI frm the text?
A. Apple’s Face ID may change yur facial features.
B. Self-driving vehicles can replace human drivers.
C. Abut 20% f English hmes adpt Amazn Ring.
D. AI can wrk ut yur persnal nline preference.
3. What infrmatin des the text cnvey?
A. We will live a better life with AI.B. AI enters many aspects f ur life.
C. The smartphne is a necessity fr us.D. Persnal infrmatin is n lnger secure.

During the summer f 2021, I flew t Greece t learn mre abut the wildfires there. I wanted t hear peple’s stries, t understand what it meant t be displaced by envirnmental disaster.
In a cafe fr peple surviving the fire, I met brave children wh nw have t live with terrible scars, physical and emtinal. I met a man wh culd nt even speak t me, his eyes filling with tears.
I was expecting t hear a lt abut lss; I was nt expecting t learn s much abut the attributin (归因) f blame. I came t understand hw desperately peple needed t blame a tangible entity (实体) –a persn, a grup f peple, the gvernment. Indeed, this was understandable and reasnable. The utbreak and mishandling f the fire needed t be explred, lked int and dealt with.
What surprised me, hwever, was that the survivrs were cmpletely silent ver any mentin f the climate crisis and glbal heating. It was made clear t me that this subject was unacceptable. Survivrs felt that these issues had nthing t d with what they had suffered, and that the peple actually respnsible needed t pay.
But when it cmes t climate breakdwn, blame did nt cme t just ne persn, ne crpratin, ne cuntry. In Greece, the fire didn’t rage s hard because smene had set f a spark-it raged s hard because years f glbal heating had dried up the land, part f a set f unsustainable (不能持续的) practices and inactin that had set ur planet n fire. And nw the fires are even wrse.
The mre I spke t peple, including climate scientists, the mre I came t see that there is ften a gap that separates science frm public awareness. In her bk “Engaging With Climate Change” Sally Weintrbe says that “many peple wh accept glbal warming cntinue t regard it as a prblem f the future”. T my astnishment, this seemed t apply even t peple wh had themselves been affected directly by wildfires.
4. What did the authr hardly expect t learn in Greece?
A. Kids’ scars.B. Ecnmic lss.
C. Survivrs’ blame.D. Duratin f the fire.
5. What did the survivrs think f the fire?
A. It was clsely related t glbal heating.
B. They culdn’t accept its massive destructin.
C. The gvernment shuld be respnsible fr it.
D. It resulted frm smene’s setting fire t the frest.
6. What des Sally Weintrbe say abut glbal warming?
A. Much attentin has been given t it.
B. Peple dn’t cnsider it serius nw.
C. Scientists are urged t apply efficient way t it.
D. Peple shuld make their pinins abut it heard.
7. What is the purpse f the passage?
A. T infrm readers f wildfires in Greece.
B T encurage readers t dnate t survivrs.
C. T equip peple with surviving skills in wildfires.
D. T raise peple’s awareness abut the climate crisis.
C
Cmpassin has nt been a traditinal characteristic f sprt. With its UK rts in 19th-century British public schls and universities, mdern sprt develped as way f creating strng military leaders, training them t develp adaptability defined in thse times by irn will and biting the bullet. Fear and harsh criticism were crucial t tughening up players and sldiers alike. The “tugh guy” narrative was strengthened by 20th-century media steretypes and Hllywd’s heres and became rted int sprt and sciety.
I’ve heard cuntless stries like the ppular culture I fund when I jined the Olympic rwing team in the mid-1990s. We were expected t suffer after mistakes r lsses t shw that we truly cared, and everyne believed caches needed t be severe and unfrgiving t get results. These appraches still exist. But an alternative apprach with cmpassin at its center addresses aims f perfrmance and wellbeing fr thse with greater ambitins.
This isn’t sme sft ptin which plays dwn hard wrk, as supprters f the earlier traditinal sprting mindset might criticize. Research acrss branches f psychlgy — behaviral, sprts, psitive — shws hw cmpassin creates the strngest fundatin fr adaptability and sustained perfrmance under pressure whether in sprt, the military, healthcare r business. Rather than activating ur threat system which began t help us survive way back, cmpassin helps us t feel safe and prtected, leaving us free t learn, cnnect with thers and start explring what we’re capable f.
The cntinuus need t imprve perfrmance has led tp caches t appreciate that high perfrmance requires levels f supprt t match the level f challenge. When yu prvide that, players start thriving while striving t achieve mre. Rted in cmpassin, a different cach-athlete relatinship thus develps.
The dictinary definitin f cmpassin includes the recgnitin f anther’s suffering and the desire and supprt t relieve it. Cmpassin has been shwn t decrease fear f failure and increase the likelihd f trying again when failure des happen. But hw many talented athletes experience that depth f supprt in mments f crisis and failure?
8. What des the underlined phrase “biting the bullet” in paragraph ne mean?
A. Cmmitment.B. Ambitin.C. Suffering.D. Tughness.
9. Why is the example f rwing team mentined in the secnd paragraph?
A. T aruse peple’s interest abut rwing.
B. T recall a painful training experience.
C. T draw a distinctin between training appraches.
D. T bring ut a cmpassin-centered training apprach.
10. What des the paragraph 3 mainly talk abut?
A. Criticism abut the cmpassin.B. Necessity f emplying cmpassin.
C. Characteristics abut the cmpassin.D. Fields that cmpassin is invlved in.
11. What wuld the authr pssibly agree?
A. The media is active in develping tugh training style.
B. Extrardinary athletes rarely received enugh supprt.
C. The cmpassin-centered training is widely used in sprts.
D Cmpassin means mre penness t failure and less training.
D
The past three weeks have witnessed the dramatic rise and fall f a new candidate fr the materials science: a supercnductr (超导体) that wrks at rm temperature. On July 22th 2023, a team f researchers in Suth Krea reprted their findings n a substance they called LK-99, claiming that its discvery was a “brand new histrical mment”. A hit f nline physics discussins fllwed, nly t fall flat tw weeks later. LK-99, it seemed, was a bubble (泡沫).
Whenever electrical pwer runs thrugh a transmissin (传送) line, sme is lst as waste heat, a cmmn tax frced by the laws f nature. The huge ptential f supercnductrs is that they carry electricity ver large distances with perfect efficiency, having the greatest impact n energy generatin, transmissin and distributin. If we ever figure ut hw t prduce them cheaply and make them wrk at rm temperature rather than nly at hundreds f degrees belw zer, it wuld revlutinize ur ecnmy and help save the envirnment.
Supercnductrs can als achieve things like pwerful magnetic (磁场的) fields in mid-air, enabling new electrnic devices, cmputers and mdes f transprtatin. This technlgy has been in develpment in Japan fr decades, with maglev trains riginally prjected t pen t the public in 2027, running at speeds up t 375 miles per hur between Tky and Nagya.
The pull f a rm-temperature supercnductr grws as ur ecnmic and envirnmental picture darkens. It’s the kind f miracle material that culd slw climate change while driving glbal ecnmy, realized new technlgies seen in science fictin.
We still dn’t knw whether the field f supercnductivity research will benefit frm the new paths pened up by the LK-99 in the last few weeks. It’s a field where thery and experiment have ften challenged each ther, and ur expectatins f what is pssible have frequently been questined by what has been bserved. Althugh public interest will n dubt fade fr nw, an bvius prmise remains: a supercnducting glden age might be just ver the hrizn, and the rle f science is clear-t find a way t get us there.
12. What can we learn abut electricity frm the text?
A. We shuld pay the tax using electricity.
B. The law f nature regulates the electricity tax.
C. Electricity lss during transmissin is unavidable.
D. Electricity lss can be reduced t zer by supercnductrs.
13. What may happen if supercnductrs are materialized?
A. The electricity bill will becme a huge burden.
B. The issue f climate change will be dealt with.
C. The ecnmy and envirnment will start t fade.
D. The new mdes f transprtatin are mre available.
14. What is the authr’s attitude t supercnductrs?
A. Neutral.B. Dubtful.C. Cnfident.D. Indifferent.
15. What wuld be the best title f the passage?
A. Bubble Burst: Where Is Supercnductr LK-99 Ging.
B. Supercnductr: Why It Sends Scientists Heart Racing.
C. Material Science: Hw It Bms with Supercnductrs.
D. Supercnductr: Hw It Becmes the Cmmander f Technlgy.

My dad, Jhn, was a basketball fan. He played in cllege and even cached a lcal yuth team fr a few years. His lve fr the game was unbelievable, and sme f my earliest memries are f us playing basketball in the nearby curt. I’ve even seen ld phts f him in his cllege days, a prud smile n his face as he held a basketball. But when it came t my wn invlvement in basketball, he was surprisingly psitive that I shuld fcus nly n study. “Basketball wn’t pay the bills,” he’d ften say, a statement that always struck me as irnic (讽刺的) given hw much he lved the sprt.
I lved basketball t, and I was pretty gd at it. My schl cach, Cach Miller, saw ptential in me and encuraged me t jin the schl team. He said I had a natural talent that culd take me far if I trained hard. But my dad was against it. He believed that sprts wuld distract me frm my studies, and with the final exam arund the crner, he didn’t want t take any chances. “Yur future is in the classrm, nt n the curt,” he wuld insist, dashing my dreams f fllwing in his athletic ftsteps.
This tensin between us reached a peak when my head teacher, Mrs. Williams, annunced a schl basketball turnament (联赛). It was a big deal; students frm the whle city wuld cme t watch. My friends were excited, and even sme teachers were talking abut it. Hwever, I knew I culdn’t participate withut my dad’s apprval. It felt like an invisible chain hlding me back, a cnflict between my passin and his expectatins.
Then smething unexpected happened. Mrs. Williams called my dad fr a meeting. I was nervus but als hpeful. Mrs. Williams was nt just an educatr; she was als a parent and understd the balance between academics and extracurricular activities. She had seen students succeed in bth, and I hped she culd cnvince my dad.
After the meeting, my dad seemed t be in deep thught. He didn’t speak immediately, taking his time as if weighing his wrds carefully. Finally, he brke the silence, “Mrs. Williams made sme gd pints abut teamwrk and discipline. Maybe it’s time t rethink my stance (立场) n yu playing basketball.”
