C
Royal family gather at Windsor Castle for first Easter Sunday service without the Queen on April 9th. Attendees and members of the royal family wore a variety of stylish hats throughout the ceremony. It is a requirement for all women to wear hats on royal occasions. This rule dates back to the 1950s when upper class and royal women would rarely show their hair in public, according to the BBC.
Hats were originally worn for practical reasons such as protection from the sun, rain or cold weather, but quickly people wore them for other purposes. The top hat, for example, was reserved for upper-class men and was worn at formal events such as weddings and horse races. Women also used hats to signify social status, wealth and fashion. The larger the hat, the wealthier the wearer was believed to be.
In addition to status, hats played an important role in British social etiquette. Men were expected to remove their hats indoors, especially in formal settings, to show respect. Women, on the other hand, were to wear their hats until seated for dinner, but then they were expected to remove them.
But hats were not always a symbol of status and etiquette. The bowler hat, created in 1849, was worn by the working class, especially those involved in transportation. The bowler hat became an iconic item of British fashion, worn by both men and women.
Today, hats continue to be an essential part of British culture, with many old and new hat shops throughout the country. The fedora is also making a comeback among younger gen-erations. Shopping in hat shops provides you with a glimpse of British hat. Caps, trilbies, beanies, and berets are just some of the styles available.
8. What is the significance of the top hat in British culture?
A. It was worn by the working class.
B. It was a personal statement of fashion.
C. It was used to protect people from the rain.
D. It was worn at formal events and signified wealth.
9. What does the underlined word “etiquette” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Routine. B. Practice. C. Manners. D. Origin.
10. Which hat was popular among postmen and train drivers in Britain?
A. Top hat. B. Fedora. C. Bowler hat. D. Beret.
11. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To attract more visitors to Britain.
B. To introduce the hat culture in British.
C. To show his or her opinions on British hats.
D. To tell an interesting story about British hats.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. C 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，本文介绍了英国的帽子文化。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。第二段提到“The top hat, for example, was reserved for upper-class men and was worn at formal events such as weddings and horse races. Women also used hats to signify social status, wealth and fashion. The larger the hat, the wealthier the wearer was believed to be.” （例如，大礼帽是上流社会男性的专属，只有在婚礼和赛马等正式场合才会佩戴。女性也用帽子来象征社会地位、财富和时尚。人们认为帽子越大，佩戴者就越富有。）可以看出the top hat多佩戴于正式场合且用来彰显财富和社会地位。故选D。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。第三段提到“ Men were expected to remove their hats indoors, especially in formal settings, to show respect. Women, on the other hand, were to wear their hats until seated for dinner, but then they were expected to remove them.”（在室内，尤其是在正式场合，男性被要求脱帽以示尊重。另一方面，女性在就座前都要戴着帽子，但之后就得摘下帽子。）由此判断，在室内对于戴帽或者脱帽的礼仪都有非常严格的规定，由此得知etiquette意为“礼貌、礼仪、行为规范”。故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。第四段提到“The bowler hat, created in 1849, was worn by the working class, especially those involved in transportation. ”（圆顶硬礼帽发明于1849年，是工人阶级，尤其是从事交通运输的工人所戴的。）由此判断，硬圆礼帽是工人阶层戴的帽子样式，因此postmen and train drivers in Britain (英国的邮递员和火车司机)最有可能佩戴的帽子为bowler hat（圆顶硬礼帽）。故选C。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。第一段由英国王室出席仪式时的戴帽礼仪引出了英国关于戴帽子的历史。结合全文以及最后一段“Today, hats continue to be an essential part of British culture, with many old and new hat shops throughout the country. ”（今天，帽子仍然是英国文化的重要组成部分，全国各地有许多新旧帽子店。）由此判断，这篇文章目的在于介绍英国帽子文化。故选B。
D
“In my lifetime, I’ve seen two demonstrations (展示) of technology that struck me as revolutionary. The first time was in 1980, when I was introduced to a modern operating system — Windows. The second big surprise came just last year. I’d been meeting with the team from OpenAI since 2016 and was impressed by their steady progress,” said Bill Gates on March 2lst.
Technically, the term artificial intelligence refers to a model created to solve a specific problem or provide a particular service. What is powering thing like ChatGPT is artificial intelligence. And recently the company OpenAI is coming out with a new technology called GPT-4, a language model that uses artificial intelligence to generate text that is almost indistinguishable (难以分辨的) from that written by a human. Some experts and researchers are excited about the potential applications of GPT-4 in industries such as healthcare, finance, and education.
While some people are excited about its potential, others are concerned about the potential dangers of such advanced AI technology. They worry that GPT-4 could be used for illegal purposes such as spreading misinformation, creating fake news, or manipulating (操纵) public opinion. “There’s too much misinformation in the world today and the GPT-4 may create more,” Joseph Bush, former director at The Daily Telegraph, told ABC News.
They also fear that the technology will widen inequality by perpetuating biases and dis-crimination that are encoded in the datasets used to train the model.
Despite these concerns, many people welcome GPT-4 warmly. Writers, poets, and other artists are eager to explore the possibilities of using the advanced technology to enhance their Creativity or break through writer’s block. Natural language processing researchers view GPT-4 as a tool to push the limits of artificial intelligence and deepen our understanding of human language.
12. Why did the author quote Bill Gates’ speech in paragraph 1?
A. To introduce the release of GPT-4.
B. To raise the concerns about GPT-4.
C. To praise OpenAI’s steady progress in AI.
D. To show Bill Gates’ important role in the development of AI.
13. What is GPT-4?
A. A language tool to lighten labor workers’ burden.
B. A language model to generate text automatically.
C. A model created to help people solve a specific problem.
D. An APP to help readers translate languages into native language.
14. What is Joseph Bush’s attitude towards GPT-4?
A. Friendly. B. Subjective. C. Approving. D. Skeptical.
15. What can be the best title of the text?
A. The Age Of AI Has Begun
B. New AI Will Become Your Perfect Assistant
C. OpenAI’s Latest Product Will Become More Popular
D. Should We Welcome Or Be Careful- GPT-4 Is Coming?
【答案】12. A 13. B 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。介绍了即将问世的一种依托于人工智能生成文本的语言模型GPT-4。
【详解】1.推理判断题。根据第一段““In my lifetime, I’ve seen two demonstrations (展示) of technology that struck me as revolutionary. The first time was in 1980, when I was introduced to a modern operating system — Windows. The second big surprise came just last year. I’d been meeting with the team from OpenAI since 2016 and was impressed by their steady progress,” said Bill Gates on March 2lst.(“在我的一生中，我看到了两次让我觉得具有革命性的技术展示。第一次是在1980年，当时我接触到了一个现代操作系统——Windows。第二次大惊喜就在去年。自2016年以来，我一直在与OpenAI团队会面，他们的稳步进步给我留下了深刻的印象。”)”和第二段的内容“Technically, the term artificial intelligence refers to a model created to solve a specific problem or provide a particular service. What is powering thing like ChatGPT is artificial intelligence. And recently the company OpenAI is coming out with a new technology called GPT-4(从技术上讲，人工智能一词指的是为解决特定问题或提供特定服务而创建的模型。推动ChatGPT的是人工智能。最近，OpenAI公司推出了一项名为GPT-4的新技术)”可以看出作者引用比尔·盖茨的话是为了引出对即将问世的GPT-4的介绍。故选A。
2. 细节理解题。根据第二段的“And recently the company OpenAI is coming out with a new technology called GPT-4, a language model that uses artificial intelligence to generate text that is almost indistinguishable (难以分辨的) from that written by a human. (最近，OpenAI公司推出了一项名为GPT-4的新技术，这是一种使用人工智能生成文本的语言模型，几乎与人类编写的文本难以区分。)”可知，GPT-4是自动生成文本的语言模型。故选B。
3. 推理判断题。 从第三段Joseph Bush说的话“There’s too much misinformation in the world today and the GPT-4 may create more(当今世界有太多的错误信息，GPT-4可能会制造更多错误信息，)”可以看出Joseph Bush对即将问世的GPT-4的作用与优劣持怀疑态度。故选D。
4. 主旨大意题。根据第二段的“What is powering thing like ChatGPT is artificial intelligence. And recently the company OpenAI is coming out with a new technology called GPT-4, a language model that uses artificial intelligence to generate text that is almost indistinguishable (难以分辨的) from that written by a human. Some experts and researchers are excited about the potential applications of GPT-4 in industries such as healthcare, finance, and education.(推动ChatGPT的是人工智能。最近，OpenAI公司推出了一项名为GPT-4的新技术，这是一种使用人工智能生成文本的语言模型，几乎与人类编写的文本难以区分。一些专家和研究人员对GPT-4在医疗保健、金融和教育等行业的潜在应用感到兴奋。)”并结合全文可以看出OpenAI公司的产品GPT-4即将问世且受到热烈欢迎，所以最佳标题为C项“OpenAI的最新产品将更受欢迎”。故选C。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了应对倦怠的四种方法。
【16题详解】
前文提到“It can come from working overtime or under stressful conditions.”（它可以来自于加班或在有压力的情况下。）后文提到“All you have to do is identify feelings of burnout and know how to deal with them. Try these out next time you’re feeling overwhelmed.”（你所要做的就是确定你的倦怠情绪，知道如何与它们打交道，下次你重新感到不知所措的时候，试一试。）由此判断，此处提到了倦怠的来源，空处应与前文为并列关系。D项“It can be also from dealing with difficult people.”（它也可能来自与难相处的人打交道。）该项符合文意。故选D。
【17题详解】
后文提到“Experts suggest starting small and dividing the whole schedule into the smallest sections. ”（专家建议从小的开始，把整个时间表分成最小的部分。）且该段小标题“Focus on advancing tiny goals.”（专注于推进小目标。）由此判断，在关注自己目标的时候应该不要设置的特别大，而是要分解为小目标，这样才方便自己推进，也不会让自己感到很为难。G项“Sometimes the to-do list gets so long that you feel you can hardly breathe.”（有时候任务清单太长了，你都喘不过气来。）该项与后文构成转折关系，符合文意。故选G。
【18题详解】
前文提到“Ask for a rest day if you need one to do nothing other than eat your favorite ice cream, go for a run, or meet a friend for lunch.”（如果你需要休息一天，除了吃你最喜欢的冰淇淋、跑步或和朋友共进午餐外，什么也不要做。），后文提到“Be sure to get enough sleep each night, too; this has a huge effect on one’s mental well-being and performance.”（每天晚上也要保证充足的睡眠；这对一个人的心理健康和表现有巨大的影响。）由此判断，有的时候休息好也是非常重要的。E项提到“Taking those hours off may seem like a big deal.”（休息几个小时似乎是一件大事。）该项符合文意。故选E。
【19题详解】
该段提到“It’s hard to feel frustrated after a sweaty weightlifting or a long run, Exercise reduces students’ sensitivity to anxiety, so think of that exercise time as building your protection against the burnout. ”（在大汗淋漓的举重或长跑后，很难感到沮丧。锻炼可以降低学生对焦虑的敏感性，所以把锻炼时间看作是建立你对倦怠的保护。）由此判断，本段主要强调了运动（特别是户外运动）对抗焦虑感的重要性，A项“Get active.”（活跃起来。）符合文意。故选A。
【20题详解】
前文提到“People’s health, well-being, everything in life, is way better if you’re connected with other people. Social network is a precious resource but reaching out to people in reality is much more beneficial. ”（人们的健康，幸福，生活中的每一件事，如果你和其他人联系在一起，都会变得更好。社交网络是一种宝贵的资源，但与现实中的人接触更有益。）由此判断，加强在现实中与其他人的接触和交流也能降低疲惫的感觉，F项“So communicate with other people face to face, not on your phone.”（所以和别人面对面交流，不要用手机。）该项与前文构成因果关系。故选F。

【导语】这是一篇说明文。法国最著名节日之一是每年6月21日夏至举行的“世界音乐日”。文章对其进行了介绍。
【36题详解】
考查副词。句意：法国最著名的节日之一是每年6月21日夏至举行的“世界音乐日”。修饰动词应用副词annually表示“每年，一年一次地”作状语。故填annually。
【37题详解】
考查连词。句意：该节日于1982年由当时的法国文化部长杰克·朗发起，并迅速传播到世界各地。根据“The festival was initiated (开创) by then French Minister of Culture Jack Lang in 1982”和“quickly spread worldwide”可知，前后构成顺承关系，所以应用连词and连接两个谓语。故填and。
【38题详解】
考查一般现在时的被动语态和主谓一致。句意：今天，超过120个国家和700多个城市庆祝这个节日。此处描述客观事实，所以应用一般现在时。动词celebrate意为“庆祝”，和主语构成被动关系。主语festival为第三人称单数。故填is celebrated。
【39题详解】
考查冠词。句意：从电子舞曲到传统民歌，音乐节是所有形式、风格和流派的音乐庆典。celebration意为“庆典，庆祝活动”，为可数名词，此处为第一次出现，所以应用不定冠词表示泛指。celebration开头发音为辅音。故填a。
【40题详解】
考查介词。句意：从电子舞曲到传统民歌，音乐节是所有形式、风格和流派的音乐庆典。from...to...意为“从……到……”，为固定搭配，所以此处应用介词from。故填from。
【41题详解】
考查现在完成时。句意：许多著名的和新兴的音乐家都在音乐节上找到了他们的开始。此处表示动作发生在过去，但对现在产生结果或影响，所以应用现在完成时。故填have found。
【42题详解】
考查名词复数。句意：除了音乐表演，美食也是庆祝活动的重要组成部分。在介词后应用名词performance表示“表演”作宾语，performance为可数名词，根据句意可知，此处是指很多表演，所以应用复数形式。故填performances。
【43题详解】
考查现在分词。句意：传统的法国葡萄酒和啤酒也提供，增加了节日的气氛。动词短语add to意为“增加”，和系动词之间没有连词，和句子构成主动关系，所以应用现在分词形式。故填adding。
【44题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：总的来说，音乐节是一个丰富多彩的、充满活力的节日，它把人们聚集在一起。在定语从句中缺少主语，且先行词为festival，所以应用关系代词which或that。故填which/that。
【45题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意：无论您是当地人还是游客，音乐节都是体验法国独特文化和庆祝音乐这一世界通用语言的绝佳机会。opportunity意为“机会”，为抽象名词，所以应用to do不定式作后置定语。故填to experience。

Despite the challenges they faced, the family remained close. They cooked meals together, went out for walks in the neighborhood, and spent quality time together, always finding ways to lift each other ‘s spirits. Bob and Teddy always told the funny things happened in school to their parents and tried their best to amuse their Daddy.
Months later, Mr. Duncan received a call and he was given a chance to interview for a position at a major company. Mr. Duncan got the job after the interview but the catch was that he was appointed to another state, far away from their current home.
Mr. Duncan thought about it for a long time, knowing it was a fantastic opportunity to better provide for his family with the new job, but at the same time, he didn’t want to uproot his family from their life and friends, leaving the house filled with memories and their neighbors who had become like family to them.

Mrs. Duncan knelt down, hugged her children and explained the reasons to them patiently. Eventually, they agreed to take the job and make the move.
Upon reaching their new home, the family struggled to adjust and they felt alone at times. They missed their old house and friends so much that very night the family would gather to talk about what they missed and encourage each other. Despite the difficulties, the family remained a unit, always relying on each other for support. They visited new places, explored new surroundings and found comfort in sharing their experiences with one another. Before long, the family realized they had made new friends and that the new chapter in their lives had opened up amazing opportunities for them to start fresh and get closer.

Natalie Portman an actress and film producer, is well known for her talents in acting. Portman was born on June 9,1981, in Jerusalem and then she and her family settled in America.
Portman started dancing lessons at age four and performed in local dance clubs. In 1993, she was interviewed for the role of a poor child who befriended a middle aged killer (played by Jean Reno) in Lue Besson’s film, Leon: The Professional. The film opened in 1994, marking her rise to fame overnight. At the same time, she studied dancing and acting in New York, and starred in Star Wars: Episode I—The Phantom Menace while still at high school in Long Island. In 1999, after filming Where the Heart Is, Portman moved into the dormitory of Harvard University to pursue her bachelor’s degree in psychology, Alongside her work as an actress, she completed a bachelor’s degree in 2003. During her studies, she starred in Star Wars: Episode II—Attack of the Clones.
To prepare for the role of a young ballerina (芭蕾舞女演员) in Darren Aronofsky’s 2010 film Black Swan, she went through five to eight hours of dance training each day for six months and lost 20 pounds (9 kg). But her hard work paid off. Not only did she win the Golden Globe Award and the Academy Award for Best Actress in 2011 by this film, but also found her soulmate—Millepied, who was the choreographer (舞蹈指导) of Black Swan.

【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“Portman started dancing lessons at age four and performed in local dance clubs.(波特曼四岁开始上舞蹈课，并在当地的舞蹈俱乐部表演)”、“The film opened in 1994, marking her rise to fame overnight. At the same time, she studied dancing and acting in New York(这部电影于1994年上映，标志着她一夜成名。与此同时，她在纽约学习舞蹈和表演)”、“In 1999, after filming Where the Heart Is, Portman moved into the dormitory of Harvard University to pursue her bachelor’s degree in psychology(1999年，在拍摄完《心在哪里》后，波特曼搬进了哈佛大学的宿舍，攻读心理学学士学位)”以及最后一句“she completed a bachelor’s degree in 2003. During her studies, she starred in Star Wars: Episode II—Attack of the Clones.(她还在2003年完成了学士学位。在学习期间，她出演了《星球大战：第二集克隆人的进攻》)”可知，波特曼四岁开始上舞蹈课，并在当地的舞蹈俱乐部表演；1994年在纽约学习舞蹈和表演；1999年搬进了哈佛大学的宿舍，攻读心理学学士学位，并于2003年学习期间，她出演了《星球大战：第二集克隆人的进攻》，所以，根据时间线索，藐视娜塔莉·波特曼的生活的正确的顺序为c-a-b-d，故选A项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段第一句“Portman started dancing lessons at age four and performed in local dance clubs.(波特曼四岁开始上舞蹈课，并在当地的舞蹈俱乐部表演)”可知波特曼四岁就开始上舞蹈课并在当地舞蹈俱乐部表演，可推理出她很有天分。根据第三段“she went through five to eight hours of dance training each day for six months and lost 20 pounds(她在六个月的时间里每天进行五到八个小时的舞蹈训练，体重减轻了20磅)”可知波特曼在六个月的时间里每天进行五到八个小时的舞蹈训练，可推理出她很努力，故选C项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Portman was born on June 9,1981, in Jerusalem and then she and her family settled in America(波特曼于1981年6月9日出生于耶路撒冷，随后她和家人定居在美国)”、第二段“Portman started dancing lessons at age four and performed in local dance clubs.( 波特曼四岁开始上舞蹈课，并在当地的舞蹈俱乐部表演)”以及最后一段“Apart from show biz, Portman devotes herself to many social and political causes.( 除了娱乐圈，波特曼还致力于许多社会和政治事业)”可知，本文已经对娜塔莉·波特曼的生活、作品进行了描述，但是还没有提及关于娜塔莉·波特曼作为演员所取得的成就，可推理出接下来的段落应为对娜塔莉·波特曼作为演员所取得的成就进行介绍，故选D项。

Royal family gather at Windsor Castle for first Easter Sunday service without the Queen on April 9th. Attendees and members of the royal family wore a variety of stylish hats throughout the ceremony. It is a requirement for all women to wear hats on royal occasions. This rule dates back to the 1950s when upper class and royal women would rarely show their hair in public, according to the BBC.
Hats were originally worn for practical reasons such as protection from the sun, rain or cold weather, but quickly people wore them for other purposes. The top hat, for example, was reserved for upper-class men and was worn at formal events such as weddings and horse races. Women also used hats to signify social status, wealth and fashion. The larger the hat, the wealthier the wearer was believed to be.
In addition to status, hats played an important role in British social etiquette. Men were expected to remove their hats indoors, especially in formal settings, to show respect. Women, on the other hand, were to wear their hats until seated for dinner, but then they were expected to remove them.
But hats were not always a symbol of status and etiquette. The bowler hat, created in 1849, was worn by the working class, especially those involved in transportation. The bowler hat became an iconic item of British fashion, worn by both men and women.
Today, hats continue to be an essential part of British culture, with many old and new hat shops throughout the country. The fedora is also making a comeback among younger gen-erations. Shopping in hat shops provides you with a glimpse of British hat. Caps, trilbies, beanies, and berets are just some of the styles available.
8. What is the significance of the top hat in British culture?
A. It was worn by the working class.
B. It was a personal statement of fashion.
C. It was used to protect people from the rain.
D. It was worn at formal events and signified wealth.
9. What does the underlined word “etiquette” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Routine. B. Practice. C. Manners. D. Origin.
10. Which hat was popular among postmen and train drivers in Britain?
A. Top hat. B. Fedora. C. Bowler hat. D. Beret.
11. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To attract more visitors to Britain.
B. To introduce the hat culture in British.
C. To show his or her opinions on British hats.
D. To tell an interesting story about British hats.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. C 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，本文介绍了英国的帽子文化。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。第二段提到“The top hat, for example, was reserved for upper-class men and was worn at formal events such as weddings and horse races. Women also used hats to signify social status, wealth and fashion. The larger the hat, the wealthier the wearer was believed to be.” （例如，大礼帽是上流社会男性的专属，只有在婚礼和赛马等正式场合才会佩戴。女性也用帽子来象征社会地位、财富和时尚。人们认为帽子越大，佩戴者就越富有。）可以看出the top hat多佩戴于正式场合且用来彰显财富和社会地位。故选D。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。第三段提到“ Men were expected to remove their hats indoors, especially in formal settings, to show respect. Women, on the other hand, were to wear their hats until seated for dinner, but then they were expected to remove them.”（在室内，尤其是在正式场合，男性被要求脱帽以示尊重。另一方面，女性在就座前都要戴着帽子，但之后就得摘下帽子。）由此判断，在室内对于戴帽或者脱帽的礼仪都有非常严格的规定，由此得知etiquette意为“礼貌、礼仪、行为规范”。故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。第四段提到“The bowler hat, created in 1849, was worn by the working class, especially those involved in transportation. ”（圆顶硬礼帽发明于1849年，是工人阶级，尤其是从事交通运输的工人所戴的。）由此判断，硬圆礼帽是工人阶层戴的帽子样式，因此postmen and train drivers in Britain (英国的邮递员和火车司机)最有可能佩戴的帽子为bowler hat（圆顶硬礼帽）。故选C。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。第一段由英国王室出席仪式时的戴帽礼仪引出了英国关于戴帽子的历史。结合全文以及最后一段“Today, hats continue to be an essential part of British culture, with many old and new hat shops throughout the country. ”（今天，帽子仍然是英国文化的重要组成部分，全国各地有许多新旧帽子店。）由此判断，这篇文章目的在于介绍英国帽子文化。故选B。

“In my lifetime, I’ve seen two demonstrations (展示) of technology that struck me as revolutionary. The first time was in 1980, when I was introduced to a modern operating system — Windows. The second big surprise came just last year. I’d been meeting with the team from OpenAI since 2016 and was impressed by their steady progress,” said Bill Gates on March 2lst.
Technically, the term artificial intelligence refers to a model created to solve a specific problem or provide a particular service. What is powering thing like ChatGPT is artificial intelligence. And recently the company OpenAI is coming out with a new technology called GPT-4, a language model that uses artificial intelligence to generate text that is almost indistinguishable (难以分辨的) from that written by a human. Some experts and researchers are excited about the potential applications of GPT-4 in industries such as healthcare, finance, and education.
While some people are excited about its potential, others are concerned about the potential dangers of such advanced AI technology. They worry that GPT-4 could be used for illegal purposes such as spreading misinformation, creating fake news, or manipulating (操纵) public opinion. “There’s too much misinformation in the world today and the GPT-4 may create more,” Joseph Bush, former director at The Daily Telegraph, told ABC News.
They also fear that the technology will widen inequality by perpetuating biases and dis-crimination that are encoded in the datasets used to train the model.
Despite these concerns, many people welcome GPT-4 warmly. Writers, poets, and other artists are eager to explore the possibilities of using the advanced technology to enhance their Creativity or break through writer’s block. Natural language processing researchers view GPT-4 as a tool to push the limits of artificial intelligence and deepen our understanding of human language.
12. Why did the author quote Bill Gates’ speech in paragraph 1?
A. To introduce the release of GPT-4.
B. To raise the concerns about GPT-4.
C. To praise OpenAI’s steady progress in AI.
D. To show Bill Gates’ important role in the development of AI.
13. What is GPT-4?
A. A language tool to lighten labor workers’ burden.
B. A language model to generate text automatically.
C. A model created to help people solve a specific problem.
D. An APP to help readers translate languages into native language.
14. What is Joseph Bush’s attitude towards GPT-4?
A. Friendly. B. Subjective. C. Approving. D. Skeptical.
15. What can be the best title of the text?
A. The Age Of AI Has Begun
B. New AI Will Become Your Perfect Assistant

D. Should We Welcome Or Be Careful- GPT-4 Is Coming?
【答案】12. A 13. B 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。介绍了即将问世的一种依托于人工智能生成文本的语言模型GPT-4。
【详解】1.推理判断题。根据第一段““In my lifetime, I’ve seen two demonstrations (展示) of technology that struck me as revolutionary. The first time was in 1980, when I was introduced to a modern operating system — Windows. The second big surprise came just last year. I’d been meeting with the team from OpenAI since 2016 and was impressed by their steady progress,” said Bill Gates on March 2lst.(“在我的一生中，我看到了两次让我觉得具有革命性的技术展示。第一次是在1980年，当时我接触到了一个现代操作系统——Windows。第二次大惊喜就在去年。自2016年以来，我一直在与OpenAI团队会面，他们的稳步进步给我留下了深刻的印象。”)”和第二段的内容“Technically, the term artificial intelligence refers to a model created to solve a specific problem or provide a particular service. What is powering thing like ChatGPT is artificial intelligence. And recently the company OpenAI is coming out with a new technology called GPT-4(从技术上讲，人工智能一词指的是为解决特定问题或提供特定服务而创建的模型。推动ChatGPT的是人工智能。最近，OpenAI公司推出了一项名为GPT-4的新技术)”可以看出作者引用比尔·盖茨的话是为了引出对即将问世的GPT-4的介绍。故选A。
2. 细节理解题。根据第二段的“And recently the company OpenAI is coming out with a new technology called GPT-4, a language model that uses artificial intelligence to generate text that is almost indistinguishable (难以分辨的) from that written by a human.

3. 推理判断题。 从第三段Joseph Bush说的话“There’s too much misinformation in the world today and the GPT-4 may create more(当今世界有太多的错误信息，GPT-4可能会制造更多错误信息，)”可以看出Joseph Bush对即将问世的GPT-4的作用与优劣持怀疑态度。故选D。
4. 主旨大意题。根据第二段的“What is powering thing like ChatGPT is artificial intelligence. And recently the company OpenAI is coming out with a new technology called GPT-4, a language model that uses artificial intelligence to generate text that is almost indistinguishable (难以分辨的) from that written by a human.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了应对倦怠的四种方法。
【16题详解】
前文提到“It can come from working overtime or under stressful conditions.”（它可以来自于加班或在有压力的情况下。）后文提到“All you have to do is identify feelings of burnout and know how to deal with them. Try these out next time you’re feeling overwhelmed.”（你所要做的就是确定你的倦怠情绪，知道如何与它们打交道，下次你重新感到不知所措的时候，试一试。）由此判断，此处提到了倦怠的来源，空处应与前文为并列关系。D项“It can be also from dealing with difficult people.”（它也可能来自与难相处的人打交道。）该项符合文意。故选D。
【17题详解】
后文提到“Experts suggest starting small and dividing the whole schedule into the smallest sections. ”（专家建议从小的开始，把整个时间表分成最小的部分。）且该段小标题“Focus on advancing tiny goals.”（专注于推进小目标。）由此判断，在关注自己目标的时候应该不要设置的特别大，而是要分解为小目标，这样才方便自己推进，也不会让自己感到很为难。G项“Sometimes the to-do list gets so long that you feel you can hardly breathe.”（有时候任务清单太长了，你都喘不过气来。）该项与后文构成转折关系，符合文意。故选G。
【18题详解】
前文提到“Ask for a rest day if you need one to do nothing other than eat your favorite ice cream, go for a run, or meet a friend for lunch.”（如果你需要休息一天，除了吃你最喜欢的冰淇淋、跑步或和朋友共进午餐外，什么也不要做。），后文提到“Be sure to get enough sleep each night, too; this has a huge effect on one’s mental well-being and performance.”（每天晚上也要保证充足的睡眠；这对一个人的心理健康和表现有巨大的影响。）由此判断，有的时候休息好也是非常重要的。E项提到“Taking those hours off may seem like a big deal.”（休息几个小时似乎是一件大事。）该项符合文意。故选E。
【19题详解】
该段提到“It’s hard to feel frustrated after a sweaty weightlifting or a long run, Exercise reduces students’ sensitivity to anxiety, so think of that exercise time as building your protection against the burnout. ”（在大汗淋漓的举重或长跑后，很难感到沮丧。锻炼可以降低学生对焦虑的敏感性，所以把锻炼时间看作是建立你对倦怠的保护。）由此判断，本段主要强调了运动（特别是户外运动）对抗焦虑感的重要性，A项“Get active.”（活跃起来。）符合文意。故选A。
【20题详解】
前文提到“People’s health, well-being, everything in life, is way better if you’re connected with other people. Social network is a precious resource but reaching out to people in reality is much more beneficial. ”（人们的健康，幸福，生活中的每一件事，如果你和其他人联系在一起，都会变得更好。社交网络是一种宝贵的资源，但与现实中的人接触更有益。）由此判断，加强在现实中与其他人的接触和交流也能降低疲惫的感觉，F项“So communicate with other people face to face, not on your phone.”（所以和别人面对面交流，不要用手机。）该项与前文构成因果关系。故选F。

考查副词。句意：法国最著名的节日之一是每年6月21日夏至举行的“世界音乐日”。修饰动词应用副词annually表示“每年，一年一次地”作状语。故填annually。
【37题详解】
考查连词。句意：该节日于1982年由当时的法国文化部长杰克·朗发起，并迅速传播到世界各地。根据“The festival was initiated (开创) by then French Minister of Culture Jack Lang in 1982”和“quickly spread worldwide”可知，前后构成顺承关系，所以应用连词and连接两个谓语。故填and。
【38题详解】
考查一般现在时的被动语态和主谓一致。句意：今天，超过120个国家和700多个城市庆祝这个节日。此处描述客观事实，所以应用一般现在时。动词celebrate意为“庆祝”，和主语构成被动关系。主语festival为第三人称单数。故填is celebrated。
【39题详解】
考查冠词。句意：从电子舞曲到传统民歌，音乐节是所有形式、风格和流派的音乐庆典。celebration意为“庆典，庆祝活动”，为可数名词，此处为第一次出现，所以应用不定冠词表示泛指。celebration开头发音为辅音。故填a。
【40题详解】
考查介词。句意：从电子舞曲到传统民歌，音乐节是所有形式、风格和流派的音乐庆典。from...to...意为“从……到……”，为固定搭配，所以此处应用介词from。故填from。
【41题详解】
考查现在完成时。句意：许多著名的和新兴的音乐家都在音乐节上找到了他们的开始。此处表示动作发生在过去，但对现在产生结果或影响，所以应用现在完成时。故填have found。
【42题详解】
考查名词复数。句意：除了音乐表演，美食也是庆祝活动的重要组成部分。在介词后应用名词performance表示“表演”作宾语，performance为可数名词，根据句意可知，此处是指很多表演，所以应用复数形式。故填performances。
【43题详解】
考查现在分词。句意：传统的法国葡萄酒和啤酒也提供，增加了节日的气氛。动词短语add to意为“增加”，和系动词之间没有连词，和句子构成主动关系，所以应用现在分词形式。故填adding。
【44题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：总的来说，音乐节是一个丰富多彩的、充满活力的节日，它把人们聚集在一起。在定语从句中缺少主语，且先行词为festival，所以应用关系代词which或that。故填which/that。
【45题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意：无论您是当地人还是游客，音乐节都是体验法国独特文化和庆祝音乐这一世界通用语言的绝佳机会。opportunity意为“机会”，为抽象名词，所以应用to do不定式作后置定语。故填to experience。

Despite the challenges they faced, the family remained close. They cooked meals together, went out for walks in the neighborhood, and spent quality time together, always finding ways to lift each other ‘s spirits. Bob and Teddy always told the funny things happened in school to their parents and tried their best to amuse their Daddy.
Months later, Mr. Duncan received a call and he was given a chance to interview for a position at a major company. Mr. Duncan got the job after the interview but the catch was that he was appointed to another state, far away from their current home.
Mr. Duncan thought about it for a long time, knowing it was a fantastic opportunity to better provide for his family with the new job, but at the same time, he didn’t want to uproot his family from their life and friends, leaving the house filled with memories and their neighbors who had become like family to them.

【答案】One possible version:
The children were hesitant to move. “I grown up here, and my best friends are here. Mom, I don’t want to leave!” Teddy cried with tears rolling down her cheeks. Seeing that, Mr. Duncan felt a sense of guilt and worry flooding in his heart and surging through him. However, he knew it was the right decision for his family’s future. Mrs. Duncan knelt down, hugged her children and explained the reasons to them patiently. Eventually, they agreed to take the job and make the move.
Upon reaching their new home, the family struggled to adjust and they felt alone at times. They missed their old house and friends so much that very night the family would gather to talk about what they missed and encourage each other. Despite the difficulties, the family remained a unit, always relying on each other for support. They visited new places, explored new surroundings and found comfort in sharing their experiences with one another. Before long, the family realized they had made new friends and that the new chapter in their lives had opened up amazing opportunities for them to start fresh and get closer.
