21、The research company OpenAI has recently released ChatGPT, a language model that can construct remarkably well-structured arguments based on simple cues provided by a user. The system which uses a massive source of online text to predict what words should come next is able to create new stories in the style of famous writers, write news articles about itself and produce essays that could easily receive a passing grade in most English classes.

That last use has raised concern among academics, who worry about the possibility of an easily accessible platform that, in a matter of seconds, can put together essays as good as -- if not better than -- the writing of a typical student.

Cheating in school is not new, but ChatGPT and other language models are totally different from the hacks(雇佣文人)students have used to take a shortcut in the past. The writing these language models produce is completely original, meaning that it can’t be distinguished by even the most advanced plagiarism(剽窃)software. The AI also goes beyond just providing students with information they should be finding themselves. It organizes that information into a complete narrative.

Beyond potential academic honesty issues, some teachers worry that the true value of learning to write -- like analysis, critical thinking, creativity and the ability to structure an argument -- will be lost when AI can do all those complex things in a matter of seconds.

“We might know more things but we never learned how we got there. We’ve always said that the process is the best part and we know that. The satisfaction is the best part. That might be the thing that’s removed from all of this. Actually, I don’t know what a person is like if they’ve never had to struggle through learning. I don’t know the behavioral implications of that,” said Peter Laffin.

“Whenever there’s a new technology, there’s a panic around it. It’s the responsibility of academics to have a healthy amount of distrust, but I don’t feel like this is an undefeatable challenge,“ Sandra Wachter, technology researcher, said.

【1】What is mainly stressed about ChatGPT in the first paragraph?

A．Its unusual functions.

B．Its working process.

C．Its promising future.

D．Its wide application.

【2】What is unique about ChatGPT’s writings?

A．They belong to a new cheating form.

B．They are writings of ChatGPT’s own.

C．They provide students with all needed information.

D．They are better than writings from the hacks.

【3】What is Peter Laffin concerned about?

A．AI makes us struggle through learning.

B．AI might be improperly used by hacks.

C．AI might rob us of the pleasure of learning.

D．AI might result in many writers losing their jobs.

【4】What can we infer from Sandra Wachter’s words?

A．He is pleased to see the release of ChatGPT.

B．He is ready for the challenges from ChatGPT.

C．He is in a panic about the use of ChatGPT.

D．He has a healthy distrust of ChatGPT.

22、Ocean animals have been getting bigger over the last half-billion years. Not a little bigger. Not even a lot bigger. They have mushroomed gigantically, scientists now conclude.

Their new finding lends support for something known as “Cope’s rule.” It holds that animals tend to evolve into species that are much larger than their distant ancestors. This hypothesis(假说)takes its name from the 19th century paleontologist Edward Drinker Cope. While studying fossils(化石), he was the first to notice this trend.

Noel Heim is a paleontologist at Stanford University in Palo Alto, Calif. He also is a co-author of the new study. His team compared the body size of animals between the Cambrian Period and modern times. This was a span of 542 million years. The animals studied included species from more than 17,000 genera. They ranged from ancient trilobites, plesiosaurs (extinct reptiles with a long neck and flippers) and many less familiar creatures to today’s whales and clams.

Ocean animals today are an average of 150 times larger than they were during the Cambrian, Heim’s group reports. The smallest animals alive today — tiny crustaceans called ostracods — are only about one-tenth the size of the Cambrian’s tiniest animals. But today’s largest ocean animals — whales — are more than 100,000 times bigger than the biggest in the Cambrian.

“Classes of animals that were already big … tended to live longer,” Heim says. They also tended to change more than classes of animals that were small did.

The size gains in ocean animals are much larger than would be expected by chance, says Jonathan Payne. He’s a co-author who also works at Stanford.

The scientists don’t know what drives the trend. One possibility is an arms race(军备竞赛)between predators and prey. The idea here is that larger animals are less likely to become some other animals’ meal. Another possibility has to do with oxygen. Land animals evolved from species that started in the ocean. Some of these land animals eventually returned to the ocean. And they kept the ability to breathe oxygen-rich air. That may have made it easier for them to outgrow animals that had to filter(过滤)their oxygen out of the water.

【1】What current animals may best illustrate “mushroomed” in paragraph one?

A. Plesiosaurs. B. Ostracods.

C. Whales.   D. African Elephants.

【2】What is the third paragraph mainly about?

A. The result of the study.

B. The participants of the study.

C. The significance of the study.

D. The targeted animals of the study.

【3】The ocean animals’ change in size ______.

A. is determined by environment

B. cannot be predicted by any factor

C. is fully explained by the new study

D. relates to the size of their ancestors

【4】In the last paragraph, the explanations for the trend suggest that ______.

A. bigger animals will never be eaten

B. land animal can get oxygen more easily

C. oxygen is important to all ocean animals

D. land animals can grow bigger than ocean animals

24、Several years ago, a cousin I had lost touch with since I was a teenager dropped by my house. At the living room entrance, he stopped in dead silence, his eyes fixed on the bookshelves covering the entire back wall. “Have you read them all?” he asked me, almost frightened. “Yes,” I said, “just about.” He shook his head in silence, as if this was a feat (技艺) that had demanded some effort. As for him, he had had to leave school at fourteen, working wherever he could. His family did not have books. I only ever recalled seeing the comic book Tarzan lying around on the table.

I often recall this scene with my cousin with unease. It hides another violent one. I was between fifteen and eighteen years old. I must have blamed my father for “not being interested in anything”, for reading only Paris-Normandie, the local newspaper. Usually so calm and tolerant regarding the rudeness of his only daughter, he replied seriously, “Books are good for you. But as for me, I don’t need them to live.”

These words stretch across time, fixed inside me, like a pain and an unbearable reality. I understood very well what my father meant. Reading Alexander Dumas, Flaubert, Camus would not have served any practical purpose in his work as a cafe owner. On the other hand, in the future he hoped for me, he vaguely knew that books held weight, and that they formed part of a defining package — “cultural baggage” — that included the theatre, the opera and winter sports — a superior social world. I understood all that and it was unacceptable. I refused to think that the world of books would stay forever closed to the human being who was dearest to me.

As I think about reasons for reading, my father’s words come back to me insistently, like a personal and unsolvable contradiction. No, to read is not to live but I have always lived with books.

【1】What does Paragraph 1 tell us about the writer?

A．Her having read many books amazed her cousin.

B．Her cousin quit school early and had no books at all.

C．She completely finished reading the books on the shelves.

D．Her cousin was frightened to death upon seeing the books.

【2】What does “one” refer to in Paragraph 2?

A．An idea.

B．An emotion.

C．A scene.

D．A relative.

【3】What can’t the writer accept?

A．The bitter memory of a violent childhood.

B．The strict tone in which her father spoke.

C．The fear of falling short of her father’s expectations.

D．Her father’s ignorance of the importance of reading.

【4】What is the passage going to talk about next?

A．Why the writer enjoys reading books.

B．What separates the writer from others.

C．What the writer’s father really meant.

D．How other conflicts erupted.
