21、For many of us, our closest meeting with wild animals is at a zoo. These places allow us to observe the behaviours and characteristics of amazing creatures. It’s an enjoyable and educational experience for us, but is it the best environment for the animals? A long time ago, people could only see wild animals as stuffed dead exhibits in a museum. Later, live animals were caught by explorers, brought home and put on show to the public in zoos — animal protection was not a priority. But modern zoos and wildlife parks have transformed the conditions and environments for animals, making bigger enclosures (围场), removing bars, and, to some extent, copying their natural habitats.

Some people have questioned the cruelty of keeping animals and using them just for entertainment, but zoos are keen to show they are here to help wildlife by educating us about protection. In the UK, the introduction of The Zoo Licensing Act 1981 also required zoos to educate the public. Well-managed zoos are now also involved in supporting and funding protection programmes.

Probably the biggest claim from zoos today is that they help to protect species that are under threat in the wild due to climate change. Robert Young, Chair in Wildlife Protection at Salford University says: “We wouldn’t have a lot of different species today if it wasn’t for zoos.” Some zoos have breeding (繁殖) programmes which help to preserve the future of species. Actor Leonardo DiCaprio recently praised Chester Zoo in the UK for its protection work. It brought a rare fish species back from the dead after breeding and releasing a school of golden fish back into their native river.

While the debate about having zoos continues, new opportunities to meet wildlife are being explored, such as using virtual reality, and Jon Coe, a zoo designer, told the BBC: “Taking a walk through a group of elephants in the Serengeti, I think, is going to be possible pretty soon.”

【1】What can be inferred from paragraph one?

B．People used to kill animals for entertainment.

C．Museums have led to the popularity of wildlife.

D．Animal protection has always been the biggest concern.

【2】The Zoo Licensing Act 1981 is mentioned to ________.

A．prove it is cruel to keep animals in zoos

B．show zoos are making efforts to protect wildlife

C．question whether it is useful to educate the public

D．express not all the zoos are well managed

【3】Why are some species in danger according to paragraph 3?

A．Because of little resources.

B．Because of heavy pollution.

C．Because of climate change.

D．Because of illegal hunting.

【4】What is Jon Coe’s attitude towards meeting wildlife in the future?

A．Doubtful.

B．Worried.

C．Unknown.

D．Hopeful.

22、First the robots came for our jobs. Now they’re coming for our hobbies. Google’s DeepMind AI lab has been busy the past few years, creating programs to take on human players across a variety of games. In 2016 its AlphaGo beat the best Go player in the world. Earlier this year, its Alpha Star defeated two middle-tier players at the popular online game StarCraft II. Now it’s learning to win at multiplayer games.

“Artificially intelligent agents are getting better and better at two-player games, but most real-world endeavors require teamwork,” DeepMind’s researchers wrote in a paper published in Science in June.

To be sure, computers have been proving their dominance (优越) over humans in one-on-one turn-based games such as chess ever since IBM’s Deep Blue beat Russian chess master Garry Kasparov in 1997.

However, successfully using teamwork to win in multiplayer games with complex environments was difficult to achieve.

For this purpose, DeepMind’s researchers designed AI agents that taught themselves how to play first-person game Quake III Arena. The team, led by Max Jaderberg, worked on a modified (修改的) version of Quake III Arena.

The game mode they chose was “Capture (抢) the Flag”. All the players must work together to steal the other team’s flag while safeguarding their own.

The AI agents “trained” with 12 hours of game data, then matched up against professional game testers. The AI won 75 percent of the time, even when its reaction time artificially slowed down to human levels and when their aiming ability was similarly reduced.

And in order to make improvements, the programmers used various kinds of “rewards” to help the AI players weigh their goals and actions to help them cooperate in the teamwork. They also used randomized maps for each new match.

“That meant the solutions that the agents find have to be general –– they cannot just memorize a sequence (系列) of actions,” said co-author Wojciech Czarnecki.

The only time humans were able to beat the AI agents was when they teamed up together. A team consisting of one human and one AI agent had a five percent greater win probability than a team of just AI agents.

Ethan Gach said at the video game news website Kotaku, “It suggests that the AI program is able to adapt to playing with non-AI teammates.” In the near future, AI may cooperate with human beings in some other fields, such as medicine and other branches of science.

【1】What might be the most difficult task for AI agents in multiplayer games?

A．Understanding the rules.

B．Cooperating with other players.

C．Memorizing complex actions.

D．Increasing reaction speed.

【2】How did the researchers of Google’s DeepMind train AI agents?

A．They gave various “punishments” when AI agents lost the games.

B．They made AI agents team up with non-professional human players.

C．They limited the time for AI agents to complete difficult tasks.

D．They put them through thousands of games with different situations.

【3】What does Gach mean in the last paragraph?

A．AI players perform better than humans in a team game.

B．AI programs should be offered more game data.

C．AI players are able to do well with human players.

D．AI programs have been successfully applied in the field of medicine.

【4】The underlined word “randomized” in Paragraph 8 can be understood as________.

A．generalized

B．specialized

C．updated

D．memorized

【5】What’s the best title of this passage?

A．Researches on DeepMind AI

B．Training AI Agents

C．Teaming up with AI

D．AI Competing with Human Beings

23、“The only way to accomplish something is through hard work,” says actor Greg Tarzan Davis. “The first step is to get started.”

In a virtual interview, I asked Davis about his life and career. He grew up in a large family in New Orleans, Louisiana. After earning a degree in elementary education at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge, Davis became a teacher. He always encouraged his young students to follow their dreams.

One day, he decided to take his own advice. Although he enjoyed teaching, he had been enthusiastic about acting. “The first step is always the hardest,” Davis said. “But once you get past it and stay consistent, I promise, you will achieve your goal.”

At the age of 29, Davis had roles in Top Gun: Maverick and Mission: Impossible — Dead Reckoning Part One. He also starred in Grey’s Anatomy, a TV series about a group of young doctors. For 2022’s Top Gun, the actor learned how to fly a fighter jet in order to play the role of Lieutenant Javy “Coyote” Machado.

Davis sees the connection between acting and teaching. “As an actor, you’re required to dig deep into the depths of your childlike imagination when playing different roles,” he said. “What I learned the most as a teacher was how to be free with my mind and imaginative with my thoughts by simply observing my first-grade students and listening to the big ideas they had, which were so real to them.”

Davis still keeps an eye on the future. He is motivated by a desire to help the next generation follow their dreams. “The people who come after me inspire me,” he said. He wants to show others, especially kids, that anything is possible. He hosted movie screenings in New Orleans as a way to give back to the community that nurtured him as a child.

【1】What did Davis encourage his students to do?

A．Value time and energy.

B．Become film stars.

C．Go after their goals.

D．Work hard at their lessons.

【2】Which idiom best matches Davis’ choice of the new career?

A．No pains, no gains.

B．It is the first step that costs.

C．Think carefully before you act.

D．Where there is a will, there is a way.

【3】What do acting and teaching have in common?

A．They need a lot of patience.

B．They are related to imagination.

C．They bring a sense of achievement.

D．They help realize the author’s dream.

【4】What does the underlined word “nurtured” mean in the last paragraph?

A．Brought up.

B．Watched over.

C．Looked for.

D．Took control of.

24、We live in a world where it's often not easy to find someone to trust. A smiling person always inspires trust. Even economists consider that smiles are valuable.A smile may increase other people's trust by about 10%.

People may also smile when they are caught doing bad things.According to a study made by LaFrance and Hecht，this can in fact be to their own advantage.We have a tendency to be kinder towards those who make mistakes if they wear a smile while being caught.Even a guilty smile may help you get away pretty easily when you make mistakes.

We may also smile when we hear a piece of good news.In this case，women tend to smile more often than men.Smiling can also be a means of reducing the pain caused by a troubling situation.Even if we force ourselves to smile when we don't want to，this may be enough to lift our spirits just a little bit.

When we feel angry or anxious，our attention tends to narrow down.We can no longer see what's going on around us and we can only notice what is in front of us.But if we smile，we feel better and increase flexibility of our attention and the ability to think.Smiling can help us focus and understand better.

“Keep on smiling，and the world will smile with you.”One of the greatest social pleasure is to smile and be smiled to in return，especially because this comes like a natural thing.

People who smile often live longer.A study based on some pictures taken of some baseball players suggested that those who used to smile a lot survived about 7 years longer than those who did not smile very often.
