We journalists live in a new age of storytelling, with many new multimedia tools. Many young people don't even realize it's new. For them, it's just normal.

This hit home for me as I was sitting with my 2-year-old grandson on a sofa over the Spring Festival holiday. I had brought a children's book to read. It had simple words and colorful pictures-a perfect match for his age.

Picture this: my grandson sitting on my lap as I hold the book in front so he can see the pictures. As I read, he reaches out and pokes（戳）the page with his finger.

What's up with that? He just likes the pictures, I thought. Then I turned the page and continued. He poked the page even harder. I nearly dropped the book. I was confused: Is there something wrong with this kid?

Then I realized what was happening. He was actually a stranger to books. His father frequently amused the boy with a tablet computer which was loaded with colorful pictures that come alive when you poke them. He thought my storybook was like that.

Sorry, kid. This book is not part of your high-tech world. It's an outdated, lifeless thing. An antique, like your grandfather. Well, I may be old, but I'm not hopelessly challenged, digitally speaking. I edit video and produce audio. I use mobile payment. I've even built websites.

There's one notable gap in my new-media experience, however: I've spent little time in front of a camera, since I have a face made for radio. But that didn't stop China Daily from asking me last week to share a personal story for a video project about the integration of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei province.

Anyway, grandpa is now an internet star -two minutes of fame! I promise not to let it go to my head. But I will make sure my 2-year-old grandson sees it on his tablet.

24. What do the underlined words “hit home for me” mean in paragraph 2?

A. Provided shelter for me.

B. Became very clear to me.

C. Took the pressure off me.

D. Worked quite well on me.

25. Why did the kid poke the storybook?

A. He took it for a tablet computer.

B. He disliked the colorful pictures.

C. He was angry with his grandpa.

D. He wanted to read it by himself.

26. What does the author think of himself?

A. Socially ambitious.

B. Physically attractive.

C. Financially independent.

D. Digitally competent.

27. What can we learn about the author as a journalist?

A. He lacks experience in his job.

B. He seldom appears on television.

C. He manages a video department.

D. He often interviews internet stars.

When almost everyone has a mobile phone, why are more than half of Australian homes stilI paying for a landline （座机）？

These days you'd be hard pressed to find anyone in Australia over the age of 15 who doesn't own a mobile phone. In fact plenty of younger kids have one in their pocket. Practically everyone can make and receive calls anywhere, anytime.

Still, 55 percent of Australians have a landline phone at home and only just over a quarter （29%） rely only on their smartphones according to a survey. Of those Australians who still have a landline, a third concede that it's not really necessary and they're keeping it as a security blanket-19 percent say they never use it while a further 13 percent keep it in case of emergencies. I think my home falls into that category.

More than half of Australian homes are still choosing to stick with their home phone. Age is naturally a factor-only 58 percent of Generation Ys still use landlines now and then, compared to 84 percent of Baby Boomers who've perhaps had the same home number for 50 years. Age isn1't the only factor; I'd say it's also to do with the makeup of your household.

Generation Xers with young families, like my wife and I, can still find it convenient to have a home phone rather than providing a mobile phone for every family member. That said, to be honest the only people who ever ring our home phone are our Baby Boomers parents, to the point where we play a game and guess who is calling before we pick up the phone （using Caller ID would take the fun out of it）.

How attached are you to your landline? How long until they go the way of gas street lamps and morning milk deliveries?

28. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us about mobile phones?

A. Their target users.

B. Their wide popularity.

C. Their major functions.

D. Their complex design.

29. What does the underlined word “concede” in paragraph 3 mean?

A. Admit.

B. Argue.

C. Remember.

D. Remark.

30. What can we say about Baby Boomers?

A. They like smartphone games.

B. They enjoy guessing callers' identity.

C. They keep using landline phones.

D. They are attached to their family.

31. What can be inferred about the landline from the last paragraph?

A. It remains a family necessity.

B. It will fall out of use some day.

C. It may increase daily expenses.

D. It is as important as the gas light.

D

When the explorers first set foot upon the continent of North America, the skies and lands were alive with an astonishing variety of wildlife. Native Americans had taken care of these precious natural resources wisely. Unfortunately, it took the explorers and the settlers who followed only a few decades to decimate a large part of these resources. Millions of waterfowl （水禽） were killed at the hands of market hunters and a handful of overly ambitious sportsmen. Millions of acres of wetlands were dried to feed and house the ever-increasing populations, greatly reducing waterfowl habitat.

In 1934, with the passage of the Migratory Bird Hunting Stamp Act （Act）, an increasingly concerned nation took firm action to stop the destruction of migratory （迁徙的） waterfowl and the wetlands so vital to their survival. Under this Act, all waterfowl hunters 16 years of age and over must annually purchase and carry a Federal Duck Stamp. The very first Federal Duck Stamp was designed by J. N. “Ding” Darling, a political cartoonist from Des Moines, Iowa, who at that time was appointed by President Franklin Roosevelt as Director of the Bureau of Biological Survey. Hunters willingly pay the stamp price to ensure the survival of our natural resources.

About 98 cents of every duck stamp dollar goes directly into the Migratory Bird Conservation Fund to purchase wetlands and wildlife habitat for inclusion into the National Wildlife Refuge System-a fact that ensures this land will be protected and available for all generations to come. Since 1934, better than half a billion dollars has gone into that Fund to purchase more than 5 million acres of habitat. Little wonder the Federal Duck Stamp Program has been called one of the most successful conservation programs ever initiated.

32. What was a cause of the waterfowl population decline in North America?

A. Loss of wetlands.

B. Popularity of water sports.

C. Pollution of rivers.

D. Arrival of other wild animals.

33. What does the underlined word “decimate” mean in the first paragraph?

A. Acquire.

B. Export.

C. Destroy.

D. Distribute.

34. What is a direct result of the Act passed in 1934?

A. The stamp price has gone down.

B. The migratory birds have flown away.

C. The hunters have stopped hunting.

D. The government has collected money.

35. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?

A. The Federal Duck Stamp Story

B. The National Wildlife Refuge System

C. The Benefits of Saving Waterfowl

D. The History of Migratory Bird hunting

In the fictional worlds of film and TV, artificial intelligence （AI） has been described as so advanced that it is indistinguishable from humans. But what if we're actually getting closer to a world where AI is capable of thinking and feeling?

Tech company UneeQ is heading for its “digital humans”, which appear lifelike on the screen not only in terms of language, but also because of facial movements: raised eyebrows, a smile, even a nod. They look close to a human, but not quite. What lies beneath UneeQ's digital humans? Their 3D faces are modeled on actual human features. Speech recognition enables them to understand what a person is saying, and natural language processing is used to work out a response. Meanwhile, another AI company, Soul Machines, is taking a more biological approach, with a “digital brain”, that imitates aspects of the human brain to adjust the emotions “felt” and “expressed” by its “digital people”.

Shiwali Mohan, an AI scientist at the Palo Research Center, is skeptical of these digital beings. “They're humanlike in their looks and the way they sound, but that in itself is not being human, ” she says. “Human qualities also involve how you think, how you approach problems, and how you break them down; and that takes a lot of algorithmic （算法） design. Designing for human-level intelligence is a different attempt than designing images that behave like humans. ” She then continues, “If something looks like a human, we have high expectations of them， but they might behave differently in ways that humans just instinctively （直觉地） know how other humans react. ”

Yet the demand is there, with UneeQ seeing high adoption of its digital employees across the financial, health care, and commercial sectors （行业）. “Unless these sectors make their business models much more efficient digitally, they might be left behind, ” says Chetan Dube, UneeQ's CEO.

Some other companies are taking their digital beings a step further, enabling organizations and individuals to create digital humans themselves using free-access platforms they provide. “The biggest motivation for such platforms is to popularize AI, ” Dube says.

Mohan is cautious about this approach, yet she supports the purpose behind these digital beings and is optimistic about where they are headed. “As we develop more advanced AI technology, we would then have to use new ways of communicating with that technology, she says. “Hopefully, all of that is designed to support humans in their goals. ”

36. According to paragraph 2, in what respect（s） do UneeQ's “digital humans” resemble human beings?

A. In the way they move around.

B. In the way they act and react.

C. In observation and analysis.

D. In speech and facial expressions.

37. Soul Machines' digital brain is a technological breakthrough because it _______.

A. learns to make proper emotional responses

B. tends to imitate human beings' tone vividly

C. recognizes the speech sounds it receives

D. processes the natural language it hears

38. In Mohan's opinion, what human quality is lacking in digital beings?

A. Calculating brain.

B. Language skills.

C. Instinctive judgements.

D. Problem-solving ability.

39. What makes many sectors employ digital humans?

A. The fear of falling behind in efficiency.

B. The urgency to promote e-commerce.

C. The wish to spread digital technology.

D. The need to upgrade the health care system.

40. What does Mohan think of the future of digital beings?

A. It's well planned.

B. It is promising.

C. It is uncertain.

D. It's quite hopeless.

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。

If the only reading you ever do is the novel or magazine, the speed at which you read probably does not matter very much. But if you have to read a great deal for study, you will appreciate the benefits of being able to read more quickly. 41

Before you open the book, make sure that you are comfortable. You need a seat which supports your back and the book should be at the right distance from your eyes. 42

43 Look at the table of contents, the preface, the chapter heading, etc. This will help you to decide whether you really need to read the whole book or only certain parts of it. Ten minutes spent in this way could save you quite a lot of time in the long run.

If you decide that you need to read the whole book, decide how much you can read at a time. 44 A history book which may contain the facts in story form will be easier to read than one dealing with scientific subjects. In the former case you may be able to read a chapter. In the latter you may only be able to read one page.

Always keep a pencil and paper beside you.  45 Note also the facts important for your purpose as well as anything which leads you to further research. You don't have to write these things in detail. It is enough to put the page number and one or two words as a reminder.

A. Stop to have a rest now and then.

B. Spend a few minutes looking through the book.

C. This depends on the type of book you are reading.

D. Here are some tips to help improve your reading speed.

E. Make a note of any page which is of special importance.

F. You may find yourself having to learn something by heart.

G. Keep the room cool rather than warm to avoid feeling sleepy.

Micro-tourism

Although the pandemic has prevented people from traveling far, there is a silver lining to that dark cloud: micro-tourism or mini-vacations, 66 has gained popularity in recent years.

Micro-tourism refers to short-distance travel where people drive two or three hours to 67 nearby destination and spend two or three days. In contrast to a proper vacation, usually 68 （involve） careful plan, much longer travel time, higher expenses and lasting over a week or more, micro-vacation needs little planning and time and it's 69 （cheap）than long distance vacation.

Micro-tourism began catching on seven or eight years ago, but it has been increasingly popular since the COVID-19 pandemic.

70 the pandemic prevention and control measures making long and distant trips less convenient, more and more Chinese people choose to take short trips instead.

Among many micro-tourism forms, the development of the camping market is particularly noticeable. Nowadays there's a sharp rise in the sale of the camping 71 （equip） both on the Internet and in the physical stores. The number of urban youths and young families who see camping as a new way of socializing 72 （increase） significantly in the last two years.

China, where there are about 45, 000 camping-related companies, 73（possible） has the greatest market potential of micro-tourism. To fully realize its potential, more government guidance 74 （need）on how we can improve industry standard, safety management, environmental protection, emergency rescue services and anti-pandemic measures. For example, in the camping sector, we should improve planning and construction, strengthen management and provide better service support 75 （make） sure the sector develops sustainably.

If these problems are properly solved, micro-tourism will not only drive the recovery of the tourism industry in the short term, but also help diversify the tourism industry and promote the high-quality development in the long run.
