Darke jined the British Para-cycling team in 2010 and wn silver at the Lndn Paralympics tw years later. At the Ri 2016 Paralympic Games, she wn the gld medal fr hand cycling.

Artificial intelligence (AI ) has been increasingly gd at fling peple. A series f phts shwing frmer US president Dnald Trump being aggressively arrested by plice have caught peple’s attentin. They were fake but very cnvincing.
Created by the AI prgram Midjurney, the phts were highly realistic, frm the characters’ mvements t the surrundings. Hwever, many details can give away the fact that they are made by AI. The Washingtn Pst’s technlgy writer Shira Ovide shared her tips. The main idea is t spt the prblems anything that wuld lk strange in a pht.
AI sftware has a histry f generating human hands incrrectly. It smetimes can create hands with mre than five fingers. This is because AI isn’t sure what a “hand” exactly is, accrding t Ppular Science. The data AI uses t learn ften shw hands and fingers in varius gestures, which can be very cnfusing fr AI.
AI-generated images als usually cntain details that are against reality. T spt this, fcus n items like accessries. Fr example, peple in an image may be missing earrings r ne part f their sunglasses. If there’s text in an image, such as a newspaper r pster, it’s usually garbled (篡改), even thugh the text may lk realistic frm a distance.
Anther thing AI is terrible at handling is the backgrund. If there’s a crwd in the image, peple’s faces in the backgrund are usually blurry - r they dn’t have faces at all!
The develpment f AI-generated art als raises alarm bells abut hw these fake images culd be used t spread misinfrmatin. “I think misinfrmatin is ging t hit an all-time high,” Jamie Chen, a digital culture and AI expert in the US, tld New Yrk Pst. Generating an AI artwrk is t “create reality”, Chen argued, adding that, being able t tell whether the wrk is real r nt requires high media literacy(素养) skills. “The wrld may nt be ready fr hw realistic the images have becme,” Shane Kittelsn, a US researcher, tld The Washingtn Pst.
8. Why are Dnald Trump’s phts mentined in the first paragraph?
A T draw mre peple’s attentin.
B. T make peple cnvinced f the news.
C. T shw the AI-generated images were fake.
D. T prve that it’s easy fr AI t cheat peple.
9. Why des AI generate human hands incrrectly accrding t the text?
A. It is unable t recgnize human hands.
B. The data it uses t learn cntain errrs.
C. It desn’t fully understand human hands.
D. It has insufficient data abut human hands.
10. Which f the fllwing will Jamie Chen agree with?
A. AI artwrks may nt be reflective f true creativity.
B. It’s high time t address the risks psed by AI wrks.
C AI artwrks will replace traditinal art frms in the future.
D. Detecting real art demands strng media literacy cmpetence.
11. Where is the text prbably frm?
A. A news reprt.B. A diary.
C A research paper.D. A science fictin.

It’s the middle f winter, and the prspect f warm sunny days is a lng way ff. Fr sme f us. it’s the mst depressing time f year, where daylight is limited and the weather is ften miserable — this is when the winter blues set in. S what can be dne t lift ur spirits?
The shrter days and lnger nights can make us feel dwn, which can cause us t eat mre and exercise less. Sme fear lneliness and islatin Thse peple wh suffer this seasnal md swing mre seriusly are described as/ having seasnal affective disrder — r SAD fr shrt. It’s a type f depressin with a seasnal pattern caused by a shrtage f light and is thught t affect the part f the brain that rules sleep, appetite, md and activity levels.
Jenny Sctt-Thmpsn, diagnsed (诊断) with SAD struggled with perids f tiredness and unhappiness. She was recmmended light therapy (疗法), which invlved sitting in frnt f a light bx as well as ging utside during daylight hurs. This is believed t help anyne wh is affected by the winter depressin.
Althugh having mre light is an bvius cure, antidepressants can help thse with mre severe depressin by artificially raising the amunt f sertnin (血清素) in the brain. But this isn’t suitable fr everyne, and many f us can try t just change ur mindset. Clinical psychlgist Laura Keyes says, “It can be helpful t think abut hw t adapt yur eating and exercise patterns t the change f seasn.”
It might sund easier said than dne, but accepting winter and thinking psitively may energise us. Writing fr the BBC Scial website, Esther De La Frd asks “What if we explred what this phase f winter has t ffer us, instead f being upset abut thse things that it is taking away?” She suggests we use this time fr rest, reflectin and slwing dwn.

C. By making a cmparisn.D. By giving an example.
15. What’s this passage mainly abut?
A. The types f SAD.B. The imprtance f taking actin.
