There’s n shrtage f health fd trends n TikTk, but which nes are actually sensible? And shuld yu skip any f them altgether? We asked registered dietitian Vanessa Rissett, and here’s what yu need t knw.
Emily Marik’s Salmn Bwl
Made with rice, baked salmn, sy sauce and spicy may—and t be clear, there are a lt f different variatins f it nline—this passes Rissett’s test because it’s healthy, fast, easy and has gd flavr.
Rissett says that while she wuld recmmend this recipe, she wuld als suggest changing the white rice fr brwn rice fr increased nutrients and mre fiber.
Healthy Ckie Dugh
Ckie dugh that’s healthy? This is t gd t be true, right? The answer is prbably yes. Rissett says that while this may be healthy, it prbably desn’t taste gd.
“I’m certain this tastes like cardbard,” she said, “If yu dn’t care abut taste—then this is fr yu.”
Lettuce Water Fr Sleep
While harmless, the TikTk trend f puring biling water ver rmaine lettuce leaves t make “lettuce water” fr better sleep prbably wn’t cure yur sleep disrder—and it prbably desn’t taste great, either.
“This is nt a thing. There’s n evidence t prve it,” Rissett said. “Instead, steep a banana peel in biling water t help aid with sleep.”
Nature’s Cereal
As Rissett pints ut, it’s basically a fruit smthie bwl.
“I am all fr having berries and ccnut water she said,” Nutritin-wise, this has lts f vitamins, antixidants and fiber. It’s basically a fruit salad that wuld be super refreshing n a ht day r pst-wrkut.”

Walmart will sn use 360 rbt cleaners acrss a few hundred f its stres. Using maps input by human emplyees, the AI-pwered cleaners will travel in the stre with n difficulty, sweeping the flr—just as human emplyees used t d.
Perhaps the mst striking thing abut these rbt wrkers is hw nt-striking they are. Sci-fi mvies suggest a future full f human-like rbts wh appear with their hrrible qualities. Nw the future is cming int view, and it lks like a giant lie. It's easy t imagine walking past an Aut-C n a shpping trip withut even nticing its presence.
AI has already started t becme a part f ur everyday life. In New Jersey this week, dzens f wrkers were hspitalized after a rbt at an Amazn fulfillment centre accidentally brke a can and wrkers were envelped(笼罩) in eye-and-lung-damaging gas. Days earlier in Califrnia, an aut-pilted Tesla drve a drunk, sleeping driver dwn a highway, which n dubt did sme ptential risks t the ther drivers n the rad. Highway patrl fficers figured ut n the spt hw t stp the AI car.
Of curse, industrial accidents and drunk drivers existed well befre AI. Tls with the pwer t release the burden f physical labr—hrses, steam machines, self-driving cars—als cme with the pwer t injure. And the presence f AI-pwered machines just steps away frm us is, fr nw, still a rare thing fr mst peple.
But the nature f rbts' cming int ur daily life will make it harder t recgnize—r bject t—the bigger changes they bring later. Walmart insists that-the rbt cleaners give emplyees mre time fr custmer service and ther tasks. Critics pint ut that they culd just as easily becme an excuse t reduce staff and wages.
8．What is the difference between rbts in sci-fi mvies and thse in reality?
A.Nw the human-like rbt is nt hard t recgnize.
B.Nw peple dn't see rbts.
C.Nw the human-like rbts can tell lies.
D.Nw it is easy t ignre the rbts.
9．Why were sme wrkers in hspital in New Jersey?
A.They damaged the rbt first.
B.The rbt caused an accident n purpse.
C.The rbt made a mistake by chance.
D.The rbt driving them n the highway had an accident.
10．What is the attitude f the authr t AI?
A.Supprtive.B.Objective.C.Dubtful.D.Indifferent.
11．What is the main idea f the passage?
A.Artificial intelligence is bringing great effect t ur daily life.
B.Walmart will sn use 360 rbt cleaners acrss all its stres.
C.We shuld say n t artificial intelligence.
D.Artificial intelligence is dangerus t ur life.

Silent nstage cmmunicatin is key, and each pianist has their wn style f “ndding” t indicate a page turn which they need t practise with their page turner.
But like all perfrmances, there are mments when things g wrng. “I was turning the page t get ready fr the next page, but the draft wind frm the turn caused the spare pages t fall ff the stand,” Mr Tittertn said, “Luckily I was able t catch them and put them back.”
Mst page turners are pian students r up-and-cming cncert pianists, althugh Ms Rasppva has nce asked her husband t help her ut n stage.
“My husband is the wrst page turner,” she laughed. “He’s interested in the music, feeling every nte, and I have t say: ‘Turn, turn!’ Rbert is the best page turner I’ve had in my entire life.”

5．答案：B
解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中的“a newly discvered cmpund(复合物), CYX-6, spared labratry rats frm sme f the mre cmmn side effects f piids"可知,CYX-6是一种新发现的复合物,它让实验室老鼠免受麻醉镇痛剂更常见的一些副作用。A项“它是在老鼠体内发现的”在文中未提及;C项“它是一种用于缓解疼痛的复合物”及D项“它是史密斯教授新发明的”与文中表述不符。故选B项。

10．答案：B
解析：推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“Tls with the cme with the pwer t injure.”可知,人工智能可以减轻人们的体力劳动负担,但同时有可能产生危害。因此作者对AI的态度是“客观的”。同时最后一段针对沃尔玛使用机器人清洁工这件事,分别提到沃尔玛与批评人士的观点,而作者对此没有发表看法,其态度也是“客观的”。故选B。
11．答案：A
解析：主旨大意题。第一段提出沃尔玛很快将在其数百家门店中使用360个机器人清洁工。结合剩余每段段首句可知,文章主要论述了“人工智能正在悄无声息地进入我们的生活,对我们的生活产生巨大影响”这个话题。所以A项切合该话题。故选A。
12．答案：A
解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中“but I've learnt t read music(但是我已经学会了识谱）”可知一个翻乐谱的人应该学会识谱，故答案为A项。

32．答案：But/Yet ；was created；ppularity；Measuring；served；when；faster；its；with；a
①考查连词。句意:但是,这种传统食物不仅仅是零食。由“the baguette is an imprtant part f French culture”可知,句子表示“但是,这种传统食物不仅仅是零食”,空格处意为“但是”,用but/yet表转折,位于句首,首字母大写,故填But/Yet。
②考查时态,语态和主谓一致。句意:根据一个传说,法棍面包是由奥地利的一位面包师在1839年将蒸汽炉引入法国后发明的。法棍面包是被发明,由“in 1839”可知,句子描述过去的事情,因此空格处是一般过去时的被动语态,主语baguette是单数,因此空格处用was created。故填was created。
③考查名词。句意:整个19世纪,法棍面包在法国越来越受欢迎。空格处用名词作宾语,ppular的名词是ppularity,意为“受欢迎程度”,是不可数名词,故填ppularity。
④考查非谓语动词。句意:这些长约两米的法棍由快递员携带,她们把它们像柴火一样堆在背上。句中谓语是were carried,空格处用非谓语动词,measure是不及物动词,意为“(尺寸、长短、数量等)量度为”,baguettes和measure是主谓关系,因此空格处用现在分词表主动,位于句首,首字母大写,故填Measuring。
⑤考查时态,语态,主谓一致和省略。句意:当这些巨大的法棍面包端上来时,通常是沿着餐桌摆放的,因为它们太长了,不适合餐桌的宽度!根据语境可知,此处表示“当这些巨大的法棍面包端上来时”,when引导的时间状语从句是when they are served,从句主语和主句主语一致,且从句中有be动词时,可省略从句中的主语和be动词,因此空格处是served。故填served。
⑥考查定语从句。句意:虽然这种面包的历史可以追溯到19世纪,但baguette这个词直到20世纪20年代才被经常使用,当时一项新法律禁止面包师在凌晨4点之前工作。空格处引导的是非限制性定语从句,从句中不缺主语或宾语,先行词1920s是时间,因此空格处用关系副词when,故填when。
⑦考查比较级。句意:随着法律的引入,面包师开始把面包做得又长又薄,这样面包烤得更快,可以及时用作早餐。由“bakers started making bread with a lng, thin shape”可知,句子表示“面包师开始把面包做得又长又薄,这样面包烤得更快”,空格处用比较级faster。故填faster。
⑧考查物主代词。句意:吃法棍面包有自己的一套习俗。ne’s wn意为“某人自己的”,因此空格处用物主代词its,故填its。
⑨考查介词。句意:用餐时,法棍面包通常用手掰开,而不是用刀切成薄片。由“baguettes are usually brken apart by hand during meals”可知,句子表示“法棍面包通常用手掰开,而不是用刀切成薄片”,空格处意为“用”,用介词with,故填with。
⑩考查冠词。句意:不管你喜欢吃什么,记住你吃的不只是面包,你吃的是法国的象征!symbl是可数名词,表泛指,前面要加不定冠词,symbl是辅音音素开头,因此不定冠词用a,故填a。

There’s n shrtage f health fd trends n TikTk, but which nes are actually sensible? And shuld yu skip any f them altgether? We asked registered dietitian Vanessa Rissett, and here’s what yu need t knw.

Made with rice, baked salmn, sy sauce and spicy may—and t be clear, there are a lt f different variatins f it nline—this passes Rissett’s test because it’s healthy, fast, easy and has gd flavr.
Rissett says that while she wuld recmmend this recipe, she wuld als suggest changing the white rice fr brwn rice fr increased nutrients and mre fiber.
Healthy Ckie Dugh

“I’m certain this tastes like cardbard,” she said, “If yu dn’t care abut taste—then this is fr yu.”
Lettuce Water Fr Sleep
While harmless, the TikTk trend f puring biling water ver rmaine lettuce leaves t make “lettuce water” fr better sleep prbably wn’t cure yur sleep disrder—and it prbably desn’t taste great, either.
“This is nt a thing. There’s n evidence t prve it,” Rissett said. “Instead, steep a banana peel in biling water t help aid with sleep.”
Nature’s Cereal
As Rissett pints ut, it’s basically a fruit smthie bwl.
“I am all fr having berries and ccnut water she said,” Nutritin-wise, this has lts f vitamins, antixidants and fiber. It’s basically a fruit salad that wuld be super refreshing n a ht day r pst-wrkut.”

Walmart will sn use 360 rbt cleaners acrss a few hundred f its stres. Using maps input by human emplyees, the AI-pwered cleaners will travel in the stre with n difficulty, sweeping the flr—just as human emplyees used t d.
Perhaps the mst striking thing abut these rbt wrkers is hw nt-striking they are. Sci-fi mvies suggest a future full f human-like rbts wh appear with their hrrible qualities.

Mst page turners are pian students r up-and-cming cncert pianists, althugh Ms Rasppva has nce asked her husband t help her ut n stage.

解析：推理判断题。根据第四段中的"Our applicatin f the cmpund wuld be a very psitive step."可知,史密斯教授认为他们对复合物CYX-6的应用将是非常积极的一步,由此可推测,在史密斯教授看来,他们的项目是有望成功的,故选A。prmising有希望的,有前途的;expensive昂贵的;ppular受欢迎的,流行的;risky冒险的。本题容易误选C项。史密斯教授虽然提到"It is a ht tpic in the research wrld at present.",但It指代"discvery f new piid alternatives with a reduced risk f breathing difficulty",并非他们的项目是一个热门的话题。
7．答案：B
解析：推理判断题根据最后一段中的"research int the pssible unknwn side effects f new piids was an especially significant step in the develpment f ptential new treatments fr pain"可知,Dr. Meredith Craigie认为研究新型麻醉镇痛剂可能产生的未知的副作用是至关重要的。A项“发明效果更好的阿片类药物”、C项“开发新的治疗疼痛的方法”以及D项“使用药物治疗呼吸困难”不符合文意。故选B项。
8．答案：D
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Sci-fi mvies wh appear with their hrrible qualities.”和“ lks like a giant even nticing its presence.”可知,在科幻电影中,机器人是一种可怕的存在,而在现实中,人们会忽略机器人的存在。故选D。
9．答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中的“dzens f wrkers were eye-and-lung-damaging gas”可知,亚马逊物流中心的一个机器人不小心打破了一个罐子,工人们被笼罩在对眼睛和肺有害的气体中,所以数十名工人住院治疗。故选C。
10．答案：B
解析：推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“Tls with the cme with the pwer t injure.”可知,人工智能可以减轻人们的体力劳动负担,但同时有可能产生危害。因此作者对AI的态度是“客观的”。同时最后一段针对沃尔玛使用机器人清洁工这件事,分别提到沃尔玛与批评人士的观点,而作者对此没有发表看法,其态度也是“客观的”。故选B。
11．答案：A
解析：主旨大意题。第一段提出沃尔玛很快将在其数百家门店中使用360个机器人清洁工。结合剩余每段段首句可知,文章主要论述了“人工智能正在悄无声息地进入我们的生活,对我们的生活产生巨大影响”这个话题。所以A项切合该话题。故选A。
12．答案：A
解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中“but I've learnt t read music(但是我已经学会了识谱）”可知一个翻乐谱的人应该学会识谱，故答案为A项。
13．答案：C
解析：推理判断题。根据第三段中“A lt f skills are needed fr the jb.(这份工作需要大量的技巧。)”以及下文中的关键信息“have t”和“make sure”可综合推断Tittertn在舞台上的工作要求很高，故选C项。bring 没趣的，令人厌倦(或厌烦）的；well-paid 工资高的；dangerus 危险的。
14．答案：B
解析：推理判断题。根据第四段中“and each pianist has their wn style f 'ndding' t indicate a page turn(每个钢琴家都有自己的‘点头’风格来示意翻页）”可推断Tittertn需要识别钢琴家发出的“点头”信号，才能准确地翻页，故答案为B项。
15．答案：D
解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段中“He's interested in the music, feeling every nte, and I have t say: 'Turn，turn！' (他对音乐很感兴趣，能感受到每一个音符，我不得不提醒他：‘翻页，翻页！’）”可推断他由于专注于音乐，忘了翻页，故答案为D项。

32．答案：But/Yet ；was created；ppularity；Measuring；served；when；faster；its；with；a
①考查连词。句意:但是,这种传统食物不仅仅是零食。由“the baguette is an imprtant part f French culture”可知,句子表示“但是,这种传统食物不仅仅是零食”,空格处意为“但是”,用but/yet表转折,位于句首,首字母大写,故填But/Yet。
②考查时态,语态和主谓一致。句意:根据一个传说,法棍面包是由奥地利的一位面包师在1839年将蒸汽炉引入法国后发明的。法棍面包是被发明,由“in 1839”可知,句子描述过去的事情,因此空格处是一般过去时的被动语态,主语baguette是单数,因此空格处用was created。故填was created。
③考查名词。句意:整个19世纪,法棍面包在法国越来越受欢迎。空格处用名词作宾语,ppular的名词是ppularity,意为“受欢迎程度”,是不可数名词,故填ppularity。
④考查非谓语动词。句意:这些长约两米的法棍由快递员携带,她们把它们像柴火一样堆在背上。句中谓语是were carried,空格处用非谓语动词,measure是不及物动词,意为“(尺寸、长短、数量等)量度为”,baguettes和measure是主谓关系,因此空格处用现在分词表主动,位于句首,首字母大写,故填Measuring。
⑤考查时态,语态,主谓一致和省略。句意:当这些巨大的法棍面包端上来时,通常是沿着餐桌摆放的,因为它们太长了,不适合餐桌的宽度!根据语境可知,此处表示“当这些巨大的法棍面包端上来时”,when引导的时间状语从句是when they are served,从句主语和主句主语一致,且从句中有be动词时,可省略从句中的主语和be动词,因此空格处是served。故填served。
⑥考查定语从句。句意:虽然这种面包的历史可以追溯到19世纪,但baguette这个词直到20世纪20年代才被经常使用,当时一项新法律禁止面包师在凌晨4点之前工作。空格处引导的是非限制性定语从句,从句中不缺主语或宾语,先行词1920s是时间,因此空格处用关系副词when,故填when。
⑦考查比较级。句意:随着法律的引入,面包师开始把面包做得又长又薄,这样面包烤得更快,可以及时用作早餐。由“bakers started making bread with a lng, thin shape”可知,句子表示“面包师开始把面包做得又长又薄,这样面包烤得更快”,空格处用比较级faster。故填faster。
⑧考查物主代词。句意:吃法棍面包有自己的一套习俗。ne’s wn意为“某人自己的”,因此空格处用物主代词its,故填its。
⑨考查介词。句意:用餐时,法棍面包通常用手掰开,而不是用刀切成薄片。由“baguettes are usually brken apart by hand during meals”可知,句子表示“法棍面包通常用手掰开,而不是用刀切成薄片”,空格处意为“用”,用介词with,故填with。
⑩考查冠词。句意:不管你喜欢吃什么,记住你吃的不只是面包,你吃的是法国的象征!symbl是可数名词,表泛指,前面要加不定冠词,symbl是辅音音素开头,因此不定冠词用a,故填a。
