For many people, the answer would be The Knockout (《狂飙》).How did it attract so many viewers? Besides the story itself, many people also loved to see the excellent acting of Zhang Songwen. The actor played a gang (黑帮) leader who used to be a fishmonger (鱼贩子). Many viewers found his performance unbelievably good. Some even jokingly asked the police to investigate (调查) the actor himself.At the age of 47, Zhang isn’t new to acting. However, during his early years, he was quite unsuccessful. When he was a student at the Beijing Film Academy, Zhang worked very hard. He practiced his acting skills day and night. But what good were all of his good skills? Show business (演艺界) wanted good-looking actors. Zhang didn’t stand out at all. In the first three years after his graduation, Zhang went to over 800 different auditions. Sadly, he didn’t get any of the characters.The failures, however, didn’t kill Zhang’s love for acting. In order to make a living, the actor jumped at every chance to act. His pay was often low, but he took his work seriously. He read each script (剧本) carefully and tried his best to bring his character to life. Sometimes, he would also discuss the script with the directors.Over time, more and more directors came to know him. They gave him some bigger roles to play. And Zhang never let them down.We all want to be successful. Our dreams, however, may not come true as quickly as we want them to. What should we do then? Well, after reading about Zhang’s experiences, you know the answer to this question, don’t you? (    ) 26. What is Zhang’s job?      A. A fishmonger.     B. A gang leader.       C. An actor.(    ) 27. What does the underlined expression “auditions” in the third paragraph mean?      A. 表演       B. 试镜         C. 艺考(    ) 28.

Zhang is strong in performance.(    ) 30. According to the passage, which of the following may agree with Zhang’s experiences?      A. All things come to those who wait.  B. From saving comes having.      C. The roses in her hand, the flavor in mine. DIn Chinese, what word do you usually use to call your mother? It’s “Mama”, isn’t it? And as you know, in America, kids call their mother “Mom” or “Mommy”. In French, the word is “Maman”, and in Arabic (阿拉伯语), it’s “Ummi”. Have you noticed what these words for “mother” have in common? Well, they all have a sound close to “m”. Similarly, the words for “father” almost all have the sound “b” or “p”. There are over 7,000 languages around the world. The words for other things are usually very different from one language to another. But why are the words for “mother” and “father” so similar?The answer lies in how babies start to talk. The easiest sound a baby can make is “ah”. A child can make this sound without the use of his tongue (舌头) or lips (嘴唇). Then, if he is going to change this sound a little bit, the easiest thing is to break up it by closing his lips for a while. The child, by this point, has long been doing this to suck (吸吮) milk. And so, the baby ends up with the sound “mah”.Babies “speaking” in this way are just playing. Adults, however, don’t think them that way. When a baby says “mah mah”, it sounds as if he is calling someone. And the person that the child is calling upon so early in his life is most likely to be his mother. The mother takes “mah” as meaning her. When speaking to her child, she calls herself “mama”. The word “mama” starts to mean “mother”. this happens with human babies worldwide.After babies begin making “m” with their lips, they put their lips together and pick up the sound “bah” or “pah”. When they make this sound, they are thought to be calling their second closest caretaker (看护人): their father.That’s why you call your mother “mama”, and your father “baba”. You have been doing this ever since you started to make sounds. (    ) 31. What’s the writer’s main purpose of writing Paragraph 1?      A. To introduce a topic. B. To give examples.       C. To provide an explanation (说明).(    ) 32. How does a baby change the sound “ah” a little bit most easily?      A. By rolling its tongue. B. By opening its mouth.       C. By closing its lips(    ) 33. According to Paragraph 3, which is the original (原本的) purpose of saying “mah” from babies?      A. To ask their mothers for help. B. To play in this way.      C. To call upon their mothers.(    ) 34. Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?      A. “Ah” is the second easiest sound to be made by babies.      B. The mother is normally thought to be babies’ first closest caretaker.      C. The one who breast-feeds (母乳喂养) babies is the mother.(    ) 35. What can be the best title of the text?      A. Parents’ Love for the Baby  B. “Mommy” and “Pappy” Worldwide      C. Baby Talk 第二节  （共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。每个选项仅使用一次。How Can You Stay Safe on the Internet?Where would you go if you needed to find out about the capital of Lithuania?

The less familiar it is, the more likely it is to be the work of a human. GPTZero then scans the article to see how different it is. A human-written article usually changes a lot. After these two steps, it will give a highly accurate final AI score.Mr. Tian is a AI supporter. 70. He believes that AI will surely be a great help to life and work.
