展开Weifang nut carving can be traced back t the Qing Dynasty, during which a retired ryal craftsman Wang Dayan spread the skill t the lcals in Shandng. Craftsmen back then ften used peach pits t display their artistic skills. Due t the demanding carving skills and its rich artistic cntent including many different elements, Weifang nut carving was listed as a natinal intangible cultural heritage as early as 2008.
Tan has studied the nut carving ver 25 years and has created many nut carvings alng the way. Yet, the 48-year-ld craftsman als admitted that the jurney f bringing this kind f masterpiece t life is nt all smth sailing. “Unlike sme pits like live pits whse surfaces are flat, each peach pit has a unique texture like fingerprints,” Tan said, adding that craftsmen shuld have the capability t trace each peach pit carefully t plan their artwrk besides the carving technique itself.
Als, craftsmen need t have a wide fundatin f knwledge when it cmes t carving nuts. Accrding t Tan, they have t master skills in painting, seal carving and calligraphy frm many traditinal cultures. Smetimes, t depict classic flktales r legends in their artwrks better, they need t read many bks t prepare themselves.
It is this kind f dedicatin that Tan and thers pssess that allws Weifang nut carving t thrive when many traditinal skills are gradually disappearing. “In recent years, Weifang nut carving artwrks have been increasingly welcmed by peple in China fr their inventive layut and nvel ideas,” Tan said. This ppularity, in turn, has als attracted many peple t learn the skill f nut carving and even becme inheritrs t pass it dwn.

(2023·河北张家口·统考一模)Sutheast Asia has a ppulatin f abut 680 millin peple and its cuntries are seeing rapid ecnmic grwth. Hwever, it is als expected t be ne f the regins which culd be mst heavily affected by climate change. Natural disasters already regularly affect the regin. Tw recent examples are Typhn Rai, which hit the Philippines and Cyclne Serja, which affected Indnesia. Urgent actin is required t build up the regin’s ability t adapt t climate change, and it is a cllective respnsibility.
Electric Vehicles (EVs) have been a ht tpic in regard t climate change, especially since 92% f transprt-related emissins (排放) in Sutheast Asia cme frm rad transprt. Sme Sutheast Asian natins have started fcusing n increasing EV prductin. Indnesia wants 20% f all cars built there t be EVs by 2025 and Thailand wants t hit 30% by 2030. Thailand als lwered taxes n EVs frm 8% t 2% t help incentivize cnsumers.
Grab, a car rental cmpany with a presence acrss Sutheast Asia, has been a strng advcate f turning t EVs.

(2023·四川遂宁·统考三模)Detecting drugs used t be a specific jb fr dgs, but nw a drug detectin team is welcming sme new clleagues — squirrels. Six Eurasian red squirrels were trained and apprved fr wrk respnsibilities by plice in Chngqing in February.
Squirrels have an acute sense f smell as they can smell fd under a ft f snw. Small and swift, the “newcmers” are able t search fr drugs in places which may be unapprachable fr dgs, such as narrw spaces r tps f packages stacked high in warehuses. The squirrels have been trained t use their claws t scratch at bxes t draw their handlers’ attentin if they detect drugs, accrding t lcal Chngqing plice authrities.
“Our self-develped training system can be applied t the training f varius animals,” Yin Jin, a plice dg handler in Chngqing, tld Glbal Times, adding that the training has really impressive results as the squirrels can quickly identify drugs. Althugh the system is intended fr dgs, it can shw sme evidence n hw squirrels are trained as well.
Accrding t a research essay published in the jurnal China Wrking Dg which details the prgram, cnditining the animals’ reflexes (反射) is the key factr. First, the animals are familiarized with the targets’ smell and d special gestures when they smell their targets. Fr example, fr explsive detectin dgs, the handlers place pieces f clth with the smell f the explsives next t the dgs’ fd.
Next, the animals learn t search fr the targets under varius cnditins. Frm a large number f luggage bags t peple walking in crwds, the handlers create different scenaris (情景) t test the animals. If the animals successfully identify the lcatin f the targets, they are then rewarded with snacks r ther treats. The animals are sn able t search fr targets naturally and actively, shwing that the cnditined reflex has been built internally. Their training ends with practice sessins in real-life scenaris.
17.What advantage d squirrels have ver dgs in drug detectin?
A.Squirrels are much easier t train.
B.Squirrels are smarter and quicker.
C.Squirrels have a sharper sense f smell.
D.Squirrels can better fit int small spaces.
18.Hw d the squirrels remind their handlers after finding bxes cntaining drugs?
A.By frcefully shaking their tails.
B.By sitting n the bxes and barking.
C.By jumping up and dwn n the bxes.
D.By scratching at the bxes with their claws.
19.What des Yin think f their self-develped training system?
A.It still needs t be imprved.
B.It will be intrduced abrad.
C.It is effective in training squirrels.
D.It can be used t train all kinds f animals.
20.When des a handler knw his detecting animals have develped cnditined reflexes?
A.When his dgs can smell targets carefully.
B.When his mice can search fr targets vluntarily.
C.When his squirrels can d different gestures flexibly.
D.When his bees can detect targets in different scenaris.
(2023·广东·校联考二模)An artificial intelligence can decde (解码) wrds and sentences frm brain activity with surprising accuracy. Using nly a few secnds f brain activity data, the AI guesses what a persn has heard. It lists the crrect answer in its tp 10 pssibilities, researchers fund in a primary study.
Develped at the parent cmpany f Facebk, Meta, the AI culd eventually be used t help thusands f peple arund the wrld wh are unable t cmmunicate thrugh speech, typing r gestures.
Mst existing technlgies t help such patients cmmunicate require risky brain surgeries t put in electrdes (电极). This new apprach “culd prvide a pssible path t help patients with cmmunicatin prblems, aviding the use f surgeries,” says neurscientist Jean-Rémi King, a Meta AI researcher.
King and his clleagues trained a cmputatinal tl, als knwn as a language mdel, t detect wrds and sentences n 56, 000 hurs f speech recrdings frm 53 languages. The team applied an AI with this language mdel t databases frm fur institutins that included brain activity frm 169 vlunteers. In these databases, participants listened t varius stries and sentences, while the peple’s brains were scanned by magnetencephalgraphy (MEG)(脑磁图).
Then with the help f a cmputatinal methd that helps accunt fr physical differences amng actual brains, the team tried t decde what participants had heard using just three secnds f brain activity data frm each persn. The team instructed the AI t match up the speech sunds frm the stry recrdings with patterns f brain activity that the AI cmputed as crrespnding t what peple were hearing. It then made predictins abut what the persn might have been hearing during that shrt time, given mre than 1, 000 pssibilities. Using MEG, the crrect answer was in the AI’s tp 10 guesses, the researchers fund.
“The new study is decding f speech recgnitin, nt prductin,” King agrees, “Thugh speech prductin is the final gal, fr nw, we’re quite a lng way away.”
21.What is the main advantage f the new technlgy?

But what many f us dn’t knw is that ur relatinships als affect ur life expectancy. Scial integratin is assciated with greater life satisfactin, better health and increased life expectancy. Peple with wide scial netwrks are mre likely t be happy, experience fewer health issues, enjy better mental health and t live a lt lnger.
Nw this desn’t mean that we shuld dive head first int a relatinship whenever we’re lnely in rder t avid dying yung. Harmful relatinships can be as islating as being alne, s wh we chse t break bread with is abslutely vital t ur verall health.
Have yu ever wndered why sme peple are single and happy, while thers are drwning in suffering? Or why sme married cuples exist in a cnsistent state f bliss, while thers are practically enemies?
Research shws that marriage has greater benefits fr men than it des fr wmen. Being cupled allws men t receive the essential emtinal supprt that they wuld lack if they were single. They als get the added benefit f being physically taken care f thanks t the gender rles sciety still subscribes t.

(2023·云南·统考二模)In abut 23 years,it may finally be time t lk up. A recently discvered asterid (小行星) has a chance f hitting the earth n Valentine’s Day in 2046. It was discvered n Feb.26 at an bservatry in San Pedr de Atacama, Chile.
While the thught f an asterid hitting the earth may sund cncerning, Natinal Aernautics and Space Administratin (NASA) says peple shuldn’t be wrried.
The asterid has an estimated diameter f 160 feet, which is abut the same size as an Olympic swimming pl r the width f a ftball field.
“We’ve been tracking a new asterid named 2023 DW that has a very small chance f impacting the earth.

The asterid is ranked n the Trin Scale as level 1 threat. The scale is a tl t categrize ptential earth impacts, with zer being n threat and 10 being smething that can cause a glbal disaster. One n the Trin Scale means 2023 DW is in the nrmal, r green zne.
“Current calculatins shw the chance f cllisin (碰撞) is extremely unlikely with n need fr public cncern,” NASA says f the green zne. “New telescpic bservatins will very likely lead t re-assignment t Level 0.”
Althugh 2023 DW desn’t pse a great risk t the earth, NASA has been cntinuing t wrk t defend ur planet frm any asterid that culd cause disaster.
In September, 2022, NASA crashed its Duble Asterid Redirectin Test spacecraft, r DART, int an asterid t see if it culd change the trajectry f the space rck. NASA later cnfirmed the missin was a success, and is cntinuing t research hw effective the methd is, shuld a massive asterid be headed ur way.

30.细节理解题。根据倒数第三段的““Current calculatins shw the chance f cllisin (碰撞) is extremely unlikely with n need fr public cncern,” NASA says f the green zne. “New telescpic bservatins will very likely lead t re-assignment t Level 0.”(NASA在谈到绿色区域时说:“目前的计算显示,碰撞的可能性极低,公众无需担心。”“新的望远镜观测结果很可能会导致重新分配到0级。”)”可知,2023DW碰撞的可能性极低,新的分级可能会重新分配到零级,说明它处于正常的区域。故选C。
31.词句猜测题。根据前文“In September, 2022, NASA crashed its Duble Asterid Redirectin Test spacecraft, r DART, int an asterid(2022年9月,美国宇航局将其双小行星重定向测试飞船(DART)撞向了一颗小行星)”和下文“NASA later cnfirmed the missin was a success, and is cntinuing t research hw effective the methd is, shuld a massive asterid be headed ur way.(美国国家航空航天局后来证实这次任务是成功的,并继续研究这种方法的有效性,以防一颗巨大的小行星朝我们飞来)”可推断,美国宇航局双双小行星定向测试飞船撞向一颗小行星是为了测试改变这个太空岩石的轨道,以免它撞向地球。由此可知,划线词与path意思相近。故选D。
32.主旨大意题。根据第一段内容“A recently discvered asterid (小行星) has a chance f hitting the earth n Valentine’s Day in 2046. It was discvered n Feb.26 at an bservatry in San Pedr de Atacama, Chile.( IA最近发现一颗小行星有可能在2046年情人节那天撞击地球。它于2月26日在智利圣佩德罗德阿塔卡马的一个天文台被发现)”以及下文分析,这个小行星不可能撞击地球,文章主要讲述一个天文台发现一颗小行星有可能在未来的某一天撞击地球,但是撞击地球可能性很小。由此可知,B项“一颗小行星正向我们驶来,不太可能击中我们”为最佳标题。故选B。
