Nilas Crneliussen feels wrried when a city turns quiet at night. “I much prefer t be in a dynamic city that never sleeps, and Bangkk gives me that,” said the Swedish-brn chef f a Nrdic-Asian restaurant in Thailand’s capital.
While Thailand had lng appealed t him, Crneliussen says he never imagined a career in cking. Instead, he was drawn t Muay Thai(泰拳), r Thai bxing. On high schl breaks, he even traveled sl t Thailand t jin Muay Thai training camps. After sustaining a hand injury while bxing, he was frced t give up Muay Thai. Hwever, he didn’t stp thinking abut Thailand.
The very day after graduating frm high schl in Sweden, Crneliussen bked a ne-way ticket t Bangkk and applied fr a study visa. It wasn’t until halfway thrugh his studies that he was inspired by a fellw student and friend wh ran small Thai restaurants. Hwever, there was smething inside f him that was drawn t culinary (烹饪的) arts. “The atmsphere inside the kitchen fascinated me-everyne has t wrk tgether t make it happen.” Crneliussen recalled.
At the time, the chef didn’t think he culd pursue his new passin fr cking in Thailand. Instead, he thught it wuld be best t g back t his rts and understand the flavrs he’d grwn up with befre cking anything else, s he finished his studies and mved back t Sweden. Starting ut in a restaurant in Stckhlm, he practised his skills. In 2019, he wn the silver in the Bcuse d’Or, a wrld-famus internatinal cking cmpetitin, as part f the Swedish team.
Despite thse successes, he knew he wanted t return t Asia t achieve his dream f culinary arts. In 2022, Crneliussen made the mve t a high-end restaurant, which pened the same year, and where he shwcased casual Nrdic fd with Asian influences.
“In Thailand, I get this feeling f belnging and cnnectin t the peple, fd and culture,” he said.

A new attempt t predict earthquakes with the aid f artificial intelligence (AI) has raised hpes that the technlgy culd ne day be used t limit earthquakes’ impact n lives and ecnmies. Develped by researchers at The University f Texas at Austin, the AI algrithm crrectly predicted 70% f earthquakes a week befre they happened during a seven-mnth trial in China.
The AI was trained t find unusual patterns in real-time seismic data that researchers had paired with the data f previus earthquakes. The utcme was a weekly frecast in which the AI successfully predicted 14 earthquakes within abut 200 miles f where it estimated they wuld happen and at almst exactly the calculated strength. It missed ne earthquake and gave eight false warnings.
It’s nt yet knwn if the same apprach will wrk at ther lcatins, but the effrt is a significant achievement in research fr AI-driven earthquake frecasting.
“Predicting earthquakes is the ultimate gal,” said a prfessr, wh is a member f the research team. “We’re nt yet clse t making predictins fr anywhere in the wrld, but what we achieved tells us that what we thught was an impssible prblem is slvable in principle.”
The researchers said that their methd had succeeded by fllwing a relatively simple machine learning apprach. The AI was given a set f statistical features based n the team’s knwledge f earthquake physics, then tld t train itself n a five-year database f seismic recrdings. Once trained, the AI gave its frecast by listening fr signs f incming earthquakes amng the backgrund rumblings in the Earth.
“Our future gal is t cmbine bth physics and data-driven methds t create a generalized system that we can apply anywhere in the wrld,” said the AI’s lead develper. “The new research is an imprtant step twards achieving that gal.”
28. What d we say abut AI predicting earthquakes?
A. The rate f accuracy is high.
B. It has gt prven wrldwide.
C. The predictin is cmpletely randm.
D. Earthquakes can be cntrlled by scientists.
29. Which can best explain the underlined wrd “seismic” in paragraph 2?
A. Related t weather patterns.B. Related t earthquakes.
C. Related t vlcanic activities.D. Related t cean currents.
30. What is researchers’ attitude twards AI predicting earthquakes?
A. Dubtful.B. Uncertain.C. Optimistic.D. Unfavrable.
31. What is the best title fr the text?
A. The Develpment Of Earthquake
B. Al’s Rle In Predicting Earthquakes
C. Al’s Frecast Abut Natural Disasters
D. The Understanding Of Earthquake Physics

Plants have been imprtant t humans since ancient times. They give us fd, clthes and shelter. Their beauty brings us happiness, and many plants can als cure us. Recently, scientists fund a plant that can better clean plluted air.
Scientists at a research institutin in the UK studied hw well plants can capture(捕获)pllutin frm cars. Car exhaust fumes(汽车尾气), as well as tire and brake particles, cause many health prblems. Since previus research has shwn that trees help remve air pllutin, researchers decided t test three types f plants: hawthrn, western red cedar, and franchet’s ctneaster(西南枸子).
Researchers fund that franchet’s ctneaster was the best at capturing pllutin. This is because f its hairy and cmplex leaf structure. They als discvered that thick barriers ver six feet high were the best at reducing pllutin. In areas with heavy traffic, franchet’s ctneaster absrbed 20% mre pllutin than the ther plants.
A c-authr f the study said, “We knw that in just seven days, a 1-meter length f well-managed thick barrier will capture the same amunt f pllutin that a car emits(排放) ver a 500-mile drive.” The researchers recmmend planting franchet’s ctneaster alng busy rads.
This is great news fr city planners, landscapers, and gardeners. Originally frm China, franchet’s ctneaster is a hardy evergreen that can survive temperatures as lw as -23℃. It grws well in the UK and can als grw well in places like Califrnia, the Pacific Nrthwest, British Clumbia, and arund the Great Lakes.
Thanks t this study, franchet’s ctneaster has shwn t be very useful. It allws gardeners and landscapers t help the envirnment. When these super plants are grwn in urban gardens, n streets, and alng highways, they will clean the air and add beauty t the surrundings.
32. Which aspect f plants is mainly mentined in paragraph 1?
A. Varieties f plants.B. Living envirnment.
C. Benefits f plants.D. Medical prperties.
33. Why is franchet’s ctneaster effective in capturing pllutin?
A. It requires less water.
B. It is taller than ther plants.
C. It grws faster than ther plants.
D. It has hair y and cmplex leaf structures.
34. What can we infer abut franchet’s ctneaster frm paragraph 5?
A. They will be planted less by gardeners.
B. They will be imprted mre frm China.
C. They can adjust t the cld temperature.
D. They shuld be planted in crrect places.
35. What is the authr’s purpse in writing the last paragraph?
A. T highlight the envirnmental benefits f franchet’s ctneaster.
B. T describe the appearance f franchet’s ctneaster.
C. T cmpare franchet’s ctneaster with ther plants.
D. T explain hw t plant franchet’s ctneaster.

语法填空：
56. which 【解析】考查定语从句。该句是由关系代词which引导的非限制性定语从句，先行词是the Third Natinal Cnference n Reading，关系代词在从句中作主语。
57. were awarded 【解析】考查时态和语态。分析句子结构可知，该句主语53 utstanding bkstres和动词award之间为动宾关系，所以此处应该用被动语态。同时，根据该句中的时间状语frm April 23 t 25可知，该句应该用一般过去时的被动语态。
58. selected 【解析】考查非谓语动词。动词select与名词The bkstres之间为动宾关系，故此处应该用过去分词作后置定语。

63. actively 【解析】考查副词。此处应该用副词修饰动词。
64. t enhance 【解析】考查非谓语动词。此处用动词不定式表目的。
65. themselves 【解析】考查代词。根据该从句中的主语bkstres可知，此处应该用反身代词。
