The rlled-up painting f a female figure was discvered in a pile f rubbish that a junk dealer was hired t thrw away in the early 1960s, and it hung in the family living rm and then restaurant in Pmpei, near Naples, fr years until his sn decided t investigate.
The junk dealer's sn Andrea L Russ said that his first inkling f the painting's rigin came when he saw a Picass in a middle schl textbk, but neither his teacher nr his father was persuaded.

After decades f trying t determine the painting's rigin, L Russ believed that a recent battery f tests carried ut by the Swiss-based Arcadia Fundatin finally ffered prf that it's the wrk f Picass. "We include lab tests that shw the paints used are cnsistent with Picass's clr palette during the perid," said Luca Marcante, a trained chemist wh funded the Arcadia Fundatin in 2000 t investigate the rigin f artwrks. "Mst recently, a handwriting expert authenticated (证实) the signature n the upper left-hand crner as that f Picass."

Marcante said that he was preparing t share the mst recent findings with them. "The nly real ne is L Russ's because we have examined it in a scientific manner.

Arund the US, educatrs say students in class rutinely send messages, listen t music and shp nline. There are als cuntless ther examples f hw smartphnes disturb teaching and learning. "Students used t have an understanding that they weren't suppsed t be n their phne in class. Thse days are gne," said James Granger, a high schl teacher.
The impact that phnes have n teenagers in America tday is well-dcumented, but teachers say parents are ften nt aware t what extent students use them inside the classrm. And increasingly, educatrs and experts are speaking with ne vice n the questin f hw t handle it: N phnes during classes.
Last year, Flrida became the first state t crack dwn n phnes in schl. A law that tk effect in July required all Flrida public schls t ban (禁止) student cellphne use during class time and blck access t scial media n district Wi-Fi. Sme districts, including Orange Cunty Public Schls, went further and banned phnes the entire schl day. Oklahma, Vermnt and Kansas have als recently intrduced what is becming knwn as the "phne-free schls" plicy.
Sme students say such plicies cut ff their main mde f cmmunicatin with family and friends. Pushback has als cme frm parents wh fear being cut ff frm their kids if there is a schl emergency. Jaden Willughey, 14, shares the cncern abut being ut f cntact with his parents if there's a crisis.
"It tk a few years t change the cellphne plicy and find a system that wrked," said Jared Christensen, the schl's vice principal. "At first it was a battle. But it has been s wrth it. Students are mre attentive and engaged during class time. Teachers are able t teach withut cmpeting with cellphnes. And student learning has increased," he said, citing test scres that were at r abve state averages fr the first time in years. "I can't definitively say it's because f this plicy. But I knw it's helping."
28．What can we learn frm paragraph 1?
A．The functins f smartphnes are increasing.
B．Mst f the Americans chse t shp nline.
C．Listening t music is gd fr students' mental health.
D．Mre and mre US students are using phnes in class.
29．Flrida was the first state in America t ________.
A．intrduce a curse n scial mediaB．prvide smartphnes fr pr kids
C．push fr a cellphne ban in schlD．allw students t use cmputers at schl
30．What is Jaden Willughey's attitude t the "phne-free schls" plicy?
A．Psitive.B．Dubtful.C．Uncncerned.D．Unclear.
31．Which statement will Jared Christensen prbably agree with?

Imagine a custmer-service center that speaks yur language, n matter what it is. Alrica, a cmpany in Irvine, Califrnia, which runs custmer-service centers arund the wrld, has intrduced an artificial intelligence (AI) translatin tl that lets its wrkers talk with custmers wh speak 200 different languages and 75 dialects. S an Alrica wrker wh speaks, say, nly Spanish can deal with a cmplaint abut an incrrect bank statement frm a Cantnese speaker in Hng Kng. And it wuldn't need t hire an emplyee wh speaks Cantnese.
Hwever, Alrica isn't cutting jbs. It will increasingly hire thse wh are cmfrtable with new technlgy.
Ptentially, the threat: Perhaps cmpanies wn't need as many emplyees—and will cut sme jbs—if chatbts can handle the wrklad instead. Cnsider Suumit Shah, an Indian businessman wh caused an uprar last year by saying that he had replaced 90% f his custmer supprt staff with a chatbt named Lina. The mve at Shah's cmpany, Dukaan, which helps custmers set up e-cmmerce sites, reduced the respnse time t an inquiry frm 1 minute, 44 secnds t "instant". It als cut the typical time needed t slve prblems frm mre than tw hurs t just ver three minutes.
Similarly, researchers at Harvard Business Schl fund in a study last year that jb pstings fr writers, cders and artists decreased greatly within eight mnths f the arrival f ChatGPT.
But being expsed t AI desn't necessarily mean lsing yur jb t it. The Swedish furniture retailer IKEA, fr example, intrduced a custmer-service chatbt in 2021 t handle simple inquiries. Instead f cutting jbs, IKEA retrained 8,500 custmer-service wrkers t handle such tasks as advising custmers n interir design and fielding cmplex custmer calls.
The experience at Alrica and IKEA suggests that AI may nt prve t be the jb killer that many peple fear. Instead, the technlgy might turn ut t be mre like breakthrughs f the past—the steam engine, electricity and the Internet, which get rid f sme jbs while creating thers and prbably make wrkers mre prductive in general t the eventual benefit f wrkers themselves, their emplyers and the ecnmy.
32．What des the authr want t tell us by the example in paragraph 1?
A．The pwer f AI.B．The threat frm humans.
C．The custmer requirements.D．The tips n language learning.
33．What advantage des Lina have ver ther staff?
A．Winning the trust f custmers.B．Respnding t custmers faster.
C．Selling mre prducts t custmers.D．Having a great relatinship with Shah.
34．What were IKEA's custmer-service wrkers asked t d in 2021?
A．Take n ther duties.B．Leave their cmpany.
C．Mve t HngKng.D．Develp latest chatbts.
35．What is the best title fr the text?
A．Hw Will AI Change Our Lives?B．Hw Shuld We Use AI Effectively?
C．Will AI Take Away Many Human Jbs?D．What Is the Future f Traditinal Cmpanies?

The rlled-up painting f a female figure was discvered in a pile f rubbish that a junk dealer was hired t thrw away in the early 1960s, and it hung in the family living rm and then restaurant in Pmpei, near Naples, fr years until his sn decided t investigate.

Arund the US, educatrs say students in class rutinely send messages, listen t music and shp nline. There are als cuntless ther examples f hw smartphnes disturb teaching and learning. "Students used t have an understanding that they weren't suppsed t be n their phne in class. Thse days are gne," said James Granger, a high schl teacher.
The impact that phnes have n teenagers in America tday is well-dcumented, but teachers say parents are ften nt aware t what extent students use them inside the classrm. And increasingly, educatrs and experts are speaking with ne vice n the questin f hw t handle it: N phnes during classes.
Last year, Flrida became the first state t crack dwn n phnes in schl. A law that tk effect in July required all Flrida public schls t ban (禁止) student cellphne use during class time and blck access t scial media n district Wi-Fi. Sme districts, including Orange Cunty Public Schls, went further and banned phnes the entire schl day. Oklahma, Vermnt and Kansas have als recently intrduced what is becming knwn as the "phne-free schls" plicy.
Sme students say such plicies cut ff their main mde f cmmunicatin with family and friends. Pushback has als cme frm parents wh fear being cut ff frm their kids if there is a schl emergency. Jaden Willughey, 14, shares the cncern abut being ut f cntact with his parents if there's a crisis.
"It tk a few years t change the cellphne plicy and find a system that wrked," said Jared Christensen, the schl's vice principal. "At first it was a battle. But it has been s wrth it. Students are mre attentive and engaged during class time. Teachers are able t teach withut cmpeting with cellphnes. And student learning has increased," he said, citing test scres that were at r abve state averages fr the first time in years. "I can't definitively say it's because f this plicy. But I knw it's helping."

Imagine a custmer-service center that speaks yur language, n matter what it is. Alrica, a cmpany in Irvine, Califrnia, which runs custmer-service centers arund the wrld, has intrduced an artificial intelligence (AI) translatin tl that lets its wrkers talk with custmers wh speak 200 different languages and 75 dialects. S an Alrica wrker wh speaks, say, nly Spanish can deal with a cmplaint abut an incrrect bank statement frm a Cantnese speaker in Hng Kng. And it wuldn't need t hire an emplyee wh speaks Cantnese.
Hwever, Alrica isn't cutting jbs. It will increasingly hire thse wh are cmfrtable with new technlgy.
Ptentially, the threat: Perhaps cmpanies wn't need as many emplyees—and will cut sme jbs—if chatbts can handle the wrklad instead. Cnsider Suumit Shah, an Indian businessman wh caused an uprar last year by saying that he had replaced 90% f his custmer supprt staff with a chatbt named Lina. The mve at Shah's cmpany, Dukaan, which helps custmers set up e-cmmerce sites, reduced the respnse time t an inquiry frm 1 minute, 44 secnds t "instant". It als cut the typical time needed t slve prblems frm mre than tw hurs t just ver three minutes.
Similarly, researchers at Harvard Business Schl fund in a study last year that jb pstings fr writers, cders and artists decreased greatly within eight mnths f the arrival f ChatGPT.
But being expsed t AI desn't necessarily mean lsing yur jb t it. The Swedish furniture retailer IKEA, fr example, intrduced a custmer-service chatbt in 2021 t handle simple inquiries. Instead f cutting jbs, IKEA retrained 8,500 custmer-service wrkers t handle such tasks as advising custmers n interir design and fielding cmplex custmer calls.
The experience at Alrica and IKEA suggests that AI may nt prve t be the jb killer that many peple fear. Instead, the technlgy might turn ut t be mre like breakthrughs f the past—the steam engine, electricity and the Internet, which get rid f sme jbs while creating thers and prbably make wrkers mre prductive in general t the eventual benefit f wrkers themselves, their emplyers and the ecnmy.
32．What des the authr want t tell us by the example in paragraph 1?
A．The pwer f AI.B．The threat frm humans.
C．The custmer requirements.D．The tips n language learning.
33．What advantage des Lina have ver ther staff?
A．Winning the trust f custmers.B．Respnding t custmers faster.
C．Selling mre prducts t custmers.D．Having a great relatinship with Shah.
34．What were IKEA's custmer-service wrkers asked t d in 2021?
A．Take n ther duties.B．Leave their cmpany.
C．Mve t HngKng.D．Develp latest chatbts.
35．What is the best title fr the text?
A．Hw Will AI Change Our Lives?B．Hw Shuld We Use AI Effectively?
C．Will AI Take Away Many Human Jbs?D．What Is the Future f Traditinal Cmpanies?
