Google has dominated the field in most of the world.But nothing lasts forever,particularly in technology.Just ask IBM,which once ruled business computing,or Nokia,once the leader in mobile phones.Both fell behind because they didn't follow big technological transitions.Now another tech innovation might announce a similar shift-and a similar opportunity.ChatGPT has put itself on centre stage,by letting people chat with an AI directly.ChatGPT can write essays in various styles,explain complex concepts,summarize texts and answer questions.And it can collect, process and combine knowledge from the web:for example,listing holiday spots that match certain criteria, or suggesting menus or schedules.If asked, it can explain its reasoning and provide details. Many things that people use search engines for today,in short,can be done better with chatbots.Will ChatGPT help students cheat better?Yes,but as with many other technology developments, it’s not a simple black and white situation.Decades ago, students could copy encyclopedia entries, and more recently, they’ve been able to search the Internet and explore into Wikipedia entries.ChatGPT offers new abilities for everything from helping with research to doing their homework for them.Many ChatGPT answers already sound like student essays. Ask the new artificial intelligence tool ChatGPT to write an essay about the cause of the American Civil War and you can watch it produce a persuasive term paper in a matter of seconds.It can even (narrowly) pass a number of exams. It scored 60%on the United States Medical Licensing Examination,70%on an exam for lawyers,78%on New York state's high school chemistry exam’s multiple-choice section, and ranked the 40th on the Law School Admission Test.A high school teacher concluded ChatGPT already writes better than most students today.He's torn between admiring ChatGPT's potential usefulness and fearing its harm to human learning:" Is this moment more like the invention of the calculator,saving me from the boredom of long division, or more like the invention of the player piano,robbing us of what can be communicated only through human emotion?"28.What is the reason why some tech companies fail to develop?A.The sharp rising market cost.C.The negative impact of local economy.B.Their shift to other business fields.D.Their failure to keep pace with tech changes.29.What is ChatGPT unable to do according to the text?A.Play the piano.C.Schedule a holiday trip.B.Write various articles.D.Explain complex concepts.30.What is the purpose of the percentages mentioned in paragraph 4?A.To explain a rule.C.To illustrate a fact.B.To make a prediction.D.To clarify a concept.31.What is the author's attitude towards ChatGPT?A.Objective.B.Positive.C.Negative.D.Ambiguous.DSingapore cannot afford to have large plots of land dedicated to growing crops-it is just too small.However, farming,or mnore precisely,urban farming,is now a buzz word here.Instead of looking at the grounds,Singapore has decided to look skyward,towards rooftops!In 2020,Singapore announced plans to convert the roofs of nine multistorey  car-parks in public housing areas into spaces for commercially farmed vegetables and other crops. This is part of Singapore's strategy to meet the country's 30 by30 goal,which is to produce 30%of its nutritional needs locally by 2030 up from 10%in 2020.Several companies have taken on the task of cultivating the urban farming scene in Singapore. Citiponics has made a name for itself,building water-efficient organic "growing towers" that can be used to grow anything from butterhead lettuce（奶油生菜）to sweet basil（罗勒）．In April 2020，they opened the first commercial farm on the rooftop of a multi-storey car park and now sell their produce via their own brand at local supermarkets.Edible Garden City(EGC)has more than 200farms across the island and works closely with restaurants to ensure sustainable supply and demand.A 460-square-meter farm run by EGC,is positioned on the rooftop of a mall to supply nearby restaurants.Singapore is not alone in its efforts to go beyond the confines of conventional agriculture.All over the world, cities are seeking to feed their communities with local produce.At Thammasat University located just outside of Bangkok,a formerly disused rooftop has been transformed into a 7,000-square-meter space for organic farming,the largest in Asia.Urban farming is not restricted to eatable plants such as leafy greens and vegetables.Rooftop Honey,which has over 130 hives throughout various locations in Greater Melbourne specializes in bees.The urban beekeeping operation,founded in 2010,serves two purposes:producing creamy and delicious honey for the city's residents while also allowing the bees to pollinate（授粉）flowers in the surrounding areas.There are several benefits to have the farms so close to home.Through community gardens or access to commercial-scale farm produce,the public have an opportunity to understand how food is grown.As the produce is pesticide free,there is also comfort in knowing where the food comes from and its impact on the environment.32.Why is the limited land resource in Singapore mentioned in the first paragraph?A.To explain benefits of urban farming.B.To show the function of urban farming.C.To introduce the result of urban farming.          D. To emphasize the necessity of urban farming.33.What does the underlined word “confines" in paragraph 4 refer to?A.Strengths.B.Restrictions.C.Principles.D.Profits.34.What can we learn about urban farming from the text?A.Urban farming simply means growing vegetables and fruits.B.Urban farming is a solution to farming where land is lacking.C.Urban farming helps to increase the crop production greatly.D.Urban farming has never been commercialized in Singapore.35.Which can be a suitable title for the text?A.A New Plan Launched in SingaporeC.Urban Farming,a Novel Pattern of FarmingB.Singapore,the Birthplace of Urban FarmingD.Strengths and Weaknesses of Urban Farming第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分12.5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。选项中有两项为多余选项。The teenage years are probably the most unsettled and stressful years in a person's life.Teens experience significant physical,emotional,social and cognitive changes.And teens of today face more challenges as they go through more uncertain times of the 21st century._36As teens experience massive physical,social and emotional changes,the challenges are managing social expectations of ideal body images,developing their identity and finding their place in the world.In the past,a teen who was criticized for his or her larger figure or pimpled（有粉刺的）face，might feel embarrassed and dejected in school._37_Constant comparison and endless posts of picture-perfect images and lives give teens greater pressure to follow current fashion trends.The Wall Street Journal reported that Instagram made body images worse for one in three teenage girls.38_Statistics show that most cases of cyber bullying take place on popular social media sites such as Facebook,Instagram,Snapchats and Twitter,where cyber bullies make emotionally scarring comments.These can be made publicly on a teen's social media account._39_As a result,cyber bullying can be more threatening than traditional bullying because it can be shared and viewed repeatedly on social media.In thisage of social media,it is also important for teens to learn to cultivate positive,and healthy relationships with people.There have been many discussions about new technologies and ways of working, such as artificial intelligence(AI)and automation,which will impact future jobs.40_.Unlike in the past,the situation is different today as AI and automation are causing some jobs to disappear.Teens will have to meet this challenge by adopting an attitude of lifelong learning,and keeping paces with technology.A.They can also be spread quickly by sharing with others.B.Furthermore, social media has taken bullying to a new level.C.The future has always been a dreamland for teens to anticipate.D.Today,these same sufferings can be expanded by social media.E.Social media,and technological advances are posing new challenges.F.Additionally,social media is a strong tool for a teen to defend himself.G.The challenge for a teen today is preparing for a largely unknown future.第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。It was a dream born in fire.“Throw the_41_down!"said one of the firemen below.Andrea Peterson was 5 when she and her mother were_42_in a burning building, and little Andrea jumped into lifesaving arms and a lifelong_43_:She wanted to fight fires like her_44_did.She told that to the men who had saved her, and  they_45 good-naturedly the way grown-ups do when a kid says they want to be an astronaut_46_this was back in a time when little girls weren't even allowed to dream about such grand goals.“"You'll be a good mom,”the firemen told her. “You'll be a good teacher, or a nurse,_47_you can never be a fireman."And then, as it_48_to do, life sidelined her dreams.

The Saturday afternoon lunch rush was not enough to lull me from my thoughts.Wracked with grief,I pondered the power of Facebook and the collective strength of human empathy.I raced from the end of my shift to ask strangers on the internet for help.“My Nanny Del has cancer.It's terminal and she will never see the world.Please send her postcards so she can see the world from her armchair: I can offer nothing but gratitude.”I resolved not to breathe a word of this;should nothing come,I couldn't bear to carry her disappointment along with my own.Should something wander into our humble little letterbox,I would consider it a blessing and embrace it like I embraced her little,shrinking frame.Days turned to weeks and Nanny's health worsened rapidly in the early months of 2018.Life took me through my full-time study,babysitting and waiting tables,along with the responsibility ofcaring for a grandparent who was too sick to care for herself. As I helped Nanny in the early hours of those mornings, she would chat to me, sometimes joys, other times,sorrows.Whatever she shared became precious.注意：1．续写词数应为150左右：2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。Paragraph 1: One afternoon, finally, a postcard from the United State arrived in our letterbox.  Paragraph 2: In the months that followed, her living room became a departure hall and our flights departed daily.
