Mr. Smith， the prfessr at my business class， had a unique way f ging ver the answers t ur weekly tests. Fr each questin， he wuld ask a randm student fr their answer and then cntinue t grill (盘问追问) him/her， frcing him/her t defend that answer. It was certainly a memrable way t review. Hw I wished I’d been a mre experienced student and gt used t the prfessr’s grilling! I wasn’t， thugh.
But in my anatmy (解剖学) class， Dr. Cuddy intrduced “high pwer” and “lw pwer” bdy psitins， saying “high pwer” psitins invlve taking up much space and making yurself lk big， while “lw pwer” pses， in cntrast， invlve making yurself lk small， keeping yur arms and legs crssed and held clse. Peple tend t see thers with high pwer pses as natural leaders， and are mre willing t hire them. Her research finding was that spending just tw minutes standing in a high-pwer pse increased a persn’s feeling f pwer and self-cnfidence. She wanted us t try it ut.
On my next quiz-review day， instead f bending ver my bk studying quietly， I sat up straight and spread ut my bks and ntebks n the entire surface f my desk. When ur teacher asked if anyne had any questins abut the material befre we began ur quiz review， I raised my hand.
The effect was surprising. My prfessr answered my questin as if talking t a clleague， and I had a wnderful feeling f calm. Suddenly， I realized that the imprtant thing was that I was participating. I just needed t engage fully in the class and learn.
Tday， befre a presentatin r a test， I spend a few minutes “thinking big” — taking up space and being seen. It calms me dwn and when I d， my best always turns ut t be pretty gd.

In the bk Cnsciusness Explained， the cgnitive (认知的) scientist Daniel Dennett describes a kind f fish， which wanders thrugh the sea lking fr a suitable rck t make its hme fr life. On finding ne， the fish n lnger needs its brain and eats it. Humanity is unlikely t adpt such an eating habit but there is a wrrying trend that peple are dumping themselves dwn by becming verly dependent n “intelligent” machines， especially when ChatGPT cmes ut.
Since its launch in Nvember 2022， ChatGPT has drawn 1 millin peple t register during the first week. Its allure is bvius： ChatGPT can prduce jkes， write undergraduate essays and create cmputer cde frm a shrt writing prmpt (提示).
But this is a false impressin. Cmputers have becme mre capable but they lack genuine thinking， develped in humans thrugh cnstant scial practices. ChatGPT des nt knw what it is ding； it is unable t say hw r why it prduced a respnse； and cannt tell if it is making sense. S why all the fuss?

As we knw， the rise f civilizatin thrugh art and agriculture cntributes mstly t the remarkable human mental pwers. N ne knws what will happen t such technlgies if the sftware engineers f the future make themselves becme sftware prgrams. Maybe the danger is nt machines being treated like humans， but humans being treated like machines.
12．Why des the authr mentin “the fish” in the first paragraph?
A．T stress the imprtance f intelligent machines.
B．T intrduce a new kind f eating habit in animals.
C．T cmpare with human’s unwillingness t think.
D．T praise the excellence f human thinking ability.
13．What des the underlined wrd “allure” mean in the secnd paragraph?
A．Target.B．Attractin.C．Weakness.D．Access.
14．What can be inferred frm the last tw paragraphs?
A．Cmputers are skilled at cmpleting cgnitive tasks.
B．Making mney is nt s imprtant in the AI cmpetitin.
C．Machines and humans shuld be treated equally.
D．Web cmpanies want the users t verstate AI tls.

九、读后续写
34．When I was 15， I fell in lve with the sngs when they were first released — Bring Him Hme， I Dreamed A Dream and On My Own. Even thugh I hadn’t read Les Miserables and knew very little abut the musical， the sngs captured my attentin and I happily sang alng with enthusiasm and energy whenever I heard them n the radi.
At the age f 17， I watched Les Miserables in a theatre f Vancuver. After getting hme， I was really thrilled and annunced that I wanted t perfrm in the musical. Hearing what I said， my parents did nthing but supprt me， althugh they cnsidered the thught ridiculus， given that we lived 50 kilmetres frm the nearest large twn， Twmba. There was little likelihd f ever having a chance t perfrm.
But sme things are just meant t be. The Twmba Chral Sciety bught the perfrmance rights with the view t perfrm it. Althugh I was nt a member f the chir， they called fr auditins (试镜) and I went alng. I had had n experience singing and had never perfrmed in any musicals but I believed in miracles and hped that there was a place fr me smewhere in the chrus.
I tried ut fr the part f Javert but did nt have the range. Little did I knw there were a hst f parts that needed filling. Frtunately， I was chsen t be in the chrus as well as playing seven rles — ten cstume changes in all. It was s exciting t play all the different parts. Rehearsals (排练) started immediately and I gt a crash curse in singing， acting and dancing. There was s much t learn and as I drve t rehearsals three times a week a little vice wuld say， “Yu are in ver yur head， get ut nw.”
I really had a hard time rehearsing — first with written texts and sheet music and then withut. Persnally， I struggled. S much t learn really made me s crazy that I had a strng desire t quit. And the little vice “Yu are in ver yur head， get ut nw.” rang in my ears again.

32．答案：①highly②recgnitin③said④cut⑤a⑥whse⑦singing⑧peaceful⑨t/twards/tward⑩t keep
解析：①highly考查副词。句意：苏轼是宋代著名的学者，在诗歌、散文和绘画方面都受到高度评价。空格处用副词highly修饰动词短语thught f，highly意为“高度地”，故填highly。
②recgnitin考查名词。句意：21岁时，他清新的散文风格为他赢得了欧阳修的认可。空格处用名词作宾语，recgnize的名词是recgnitin，意为“认可”，是不可数名词，故填recgnitin。
③said考查时态。句意：中国宋代的历史学家和政治家欧阳修说，苏轼的作品是杰出的，这使苏轼一出名就出名了。空格处是句子是谓语，句子描述过去的事情，时态用一般过去时，空格处用过去式，故填said。
④cut考查非谓语动词。句意：梦想破灭后，苏轼开始关注自然。空格处是with复合结构，dreams和cut之间是逻辑动宾关系，因此空格处用过去分词表被动，故填cut。
⑤a考查冠词。句意：突然下起了一场雨，同伴们纷纷跑去避雨，苏轼突然大笑起来，好像完全没有意识到有雨似的。shwer是可数名词的单数形式，表泛指，前面要加不定冠词，sudden是辅音音素开头，因此不定冠词用a，故填a。
⑥whse考查定语从句。句意：小路两旁长着树木，雨滴落下时树叶发出轻柔的声音。空格处引导的是非限制性定语从句，trees和leaves之间是所属关系，因此空格处用表所属的关系代词whse引导定语从句，故填whse。
⑦singing考查非谓语动词。句意：他穿着湿衣服，边走边唱着快乐的歌。句中谓语是walked，空格处用非谓语动词，he和sing之间是主谓关系，因此空格处用现在分词表主动，故填singing。
⑧peaceful考查形容词。句意：这时，他突然想道：“一蓑烟雨任平生。”空格处用形容词作定语，修饰名词mind，peace的形容词是peaceful，意为“平静的”，故填peaceful。
⑨t/twards/tward考查介词。句意：苏轼乐观豁达的生活态度让他在宦海沉浮中前行。attitude后跟介词t/twards/tward表示“对待……的态度”，故填t/twards/tward。
⑩t keep考查不定式。句意：这种态度在他的诗歌和散文中得到了体现，并代代相传，它真正激励着我们保持宽广的胸怀，坚持与一切困难作斗争。inspire sb. t d是固定短语，意为“激励某人做某事”，因此空格处用不定式t keep，故填t keep。
