Many educators fear students will use the artificial intelligence (AI) tool ChatGPT to write their reports or cheat on homework. But other teachers are including it in the classroom.
Donnie Piercey is a teacher in Lexington, Kentucky. He told his 23 5th-grade students to try and outsmart the tool that was creating writing assignments. Piercey says his job is to prepare students for a world where knowledge of AI will be required.
He describes ChatGPT as just the newest technology in his 17 years of teaching that caused concern about the possibility of cheating. They include tools to help with math and spelling as well as Google, Wikipedia and YouTube.
“As educators, we haven’t figured out the best way to use artificial intelligence yet,” he added. “But it’s coming, whether we want it to or not.”
Teaching a lower grade level, Piercey is less worried about cheating than high school teachers. His school system has blocked students from ChatGPT but permits teachers to use it.
Students in Piercey’s class said working with a chatbot makes learning fun.
Students Olivia Laksi and Katherine McCormick, both 10, said they can see the good and bad parts of working with chatbots. They can help students who have trouble putting their thoughts into writing. And there is no limit to the creativity it can add to classwork.
McCormick said students can use it for suggestions, but should not use it to do all the work.
“You shouldn’t take advantage of it,” McCormick said. “You’re not learning anything if you type in what you want, and then it gives you the answer.”

“Great progress and achievements on education have been made in Xinjiang,” Rahman said, adding she is one of the many people in Xinjiang to benefit from the country’s fair education policies.
Rahman has seven younger brothers and sisters, and her father passed away when she was 15. Life had been difficult for her family. With the help of the local government, Rahman and her seven siblings completed their nine-year compulsory education. She and her three sisters graduated from colleges and now work as teachers.
“It is the fair education policies that created a happy life for us,” said Rahman.
Rahman has been working with two classes of Xinjiang students in a senior middle school in Changqing district of Jinan, Shandong province since 2020.
“Children here have free accommodation and meals. In addition, they have subsidies for medical care and a student grant of 50 yuan ($7.50) every month,” said Rahman.
Almost all of these children are able to be admitted by colleges and most of them return to Xinjiang after graduation, becoming an important strength in the development of Xinjiang, she said.
Rahman is now taking care of 65 girl students from Xinjiang. For these students, she is not only a teacher but a relative.
“The first thing that I need to do with the students is to change their attitudes on studying, as well as their parents’ attitudes on education to let them understand that only knowledge can upgrade their lives,” said Rahman.
“To care for the students is not to educate them with empty talk but with every detail and specific event in our daily life,” she said.
What kind of people we should cultivate, how and for whom — these are the fundamental issues that education must address, Rahman quoted from the report.

The Beijing Winter Olympics is a great success. On the Beijing- Zhangjiakou High- speed train, the crew (乘务组) welcome passengers from different countries in different languages, such as “Hello”, “Bonjour”, “Guten Tag”, “ Zdravstvuyte” and so on. With their good service, passengers can make their trips happy and warm.
The Beijing- Zhangjiakou High- speed railway plays a very important part in many aspects, which connects the three main hosting places (Beijing, Yanqing and Chongli) together and shortens the travel time between Beijing and Chongli from more than three hours to just one hour. The trains are well designed and have the following advantages:
Smart operations
Some of the trains along the Beijing- Zhangjiakou railway line are smart enough to drive by themselves! More than 2,700 sensors (传感器) make sure the train runs smoothly. Most importantly, the trains can run in temperatures as low as -40℃.
Large screens
Some carriages are equipped with large screens. You can watch the Olympics live shows on it with the help of 5G technology. No matter whether you are an athlete or a reporter, you won’t miss any exciting show.
Special carriages
There are special carriages for the disabled people. It’s wider and has Braille everywhere which greatly helps the blind to read easily. There is also a barrier-free (无障碍的) toilet with an SOS button. Next to the toilet, there is also a space especially for skis.

Egypt is home to more than 100 pyramids, including the landmark Giza pyramid which is the last-standing ancient wonder of the world. It is an example of the wisdom and skills of ancient development. The Great Pyramid of Giza has stood tall since the 26th Century BC, and took 27years to build, with around 2.3 million blocks of stone weighing 6 million tons.
Giza is actually made up of three pyramids, Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure—each one is named after a pharaoh (法老). Now, scientists are using High Energy Physics to scan (扫描) the Khufu structure at Giza. The new technology scans deeper into the pyramid than before, and then maps its inside structure.
What we see now is only the central structure of the Great Pyramid. Although the pyramid has been studied closely for centuries, there are two mysterious holes that have kept archaeologists puzzled.
One is around 98 feet long and 20 feet high and could be one large space or several rooms, according to scans of the pyramid, while the other is much smaller, just beyond the north face of the pyramid. Archaeologists are not sure what either space functioned as; the most exciting possibility is that the larger space is the hidden room to keep Khufu, who governed from around 2551BC to 2528BC．
Finding holes in pyramids isn’t unusual, though. Nowadays, though, we have the technology to find out, compared to days gone by when examinations would have to blow up the pyramids to explore.
“Since the instruments that are used are very large, they cannot be placed inside the pyramid, and therefore our approach is to put them outside and meticulously move them along the base. In this way, we can build up the required data set,” the team wrote in the paper. The technology is so precise that scientists may be able to even tell objects within the hole.
12．What can be learned about the Great Pyramid of Giza?
A．It is named after a pharaoh. B．It is the largest ancient wonder of the world.
C．It was built with around 6 million stones. D．It has a history of more than 4, 000 years.
13．What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A．The owner of the pyramid. B．The two mysterious holes.
C．The advanced research technology. D．The central structure of the Giza pyramid.
14．What does the author think of the examinations in the days gone by?
A．They caused damage. B．They took long to carry out.
C．They used no equipment. D．They explained almost all puzzles.
15．What does the underlined word “meticulously” in paragraph 6 mean?
A．Carefully. B．Quickly. C．Formally. D．Secretly.
For those who are keen to explore natural wonders and cultural heritage sites and to pursue (追求) the passion of local people for ice and snow in Jilin Province, now it is the time to go there.

Winter fishing
Chagan Lake is one of the top 10 largest freshwater lakes in China. It covers more than 500 square kilometers. Winter fishing on Chagan Lake is an ancient tradition that dates back to the Liao Dynasty and Jin Dynasty. It was listed as a national-level intangible (无形的) cultural heritage item in 2008.
Hot springs
For those who want to feel warm in winter in Jilin Province, the area of Changbai Mountains could be the best place to visit. The region, formed after a volcanic eruption in ancient times, holds hundreds of hot springs with an average temperature above 60℃. The hot springs are said to be good for health because of their stable flow, constant temperature and mineral-rich water.

When Brad Ryan was young. He used to spend a good time with his grandma Joy. Ryan says, “I remember sleepovers at her house when she would teach me to make cookies.”
The two became distant (遥远的) when Ryan’s parents divorced (离婚), but then ran into each other 10 years later. Realizing how much he liked his grandmother and missed that lost time, he made a plan to spend time with her.
About eight years ago, Ryan was telling Joy about his 2009 hike and many adventures living in the wilderness. “Her eyes softened and then she matter-of-factly said, ‘I regret that I didn’t get to see more things in life. It would have been nice to see the mountains,’ ” Ryan recalls. “My heart broke for her.”
It wasn’t until a few years later that the two took a trip to the Great Smoke Mountains. After a stressful work schedule, Ryan needed an escape to nature. So he invited his grandma to travel with him. They arrived late at night in the rain with Joy holding the umbrella while Ryan set up the tent. At 85, she had never slept in a tent before, but she climbed 2.3 miles on a trail, receiving high-fives all the way.
“It was a life-changing trip that provided more purpose than anything I had ever done,” Ryan says. “Two years later I set up a GoFundMe called Grandma Joy’s Road Trip in the spirit of making up for the lost time and proving that you’re never too old to pack in a lifetime of adventure and travel.”
In the past four years, they’re travelled more than 25,000 miles across 38 states. So far, they’ve visited 29 of the 61 US national parks, with much of the adventure documented on Instagram.
“You never know what’s going to come out of her mouth, and it’s usually interesting. I wouldn’t want to travel the country with anyone else at this point. Of course we bet tired and have our angry moments. There have been difficult moments that we had to work through, but finally we get to where we need to be.”

Around 7,000 B．C．(during the Neolithic period), some hunters and gatherers began to rely chiefly on agriculture for their life. Indeed, agriculture itself evolved over the course of time and Neolithic peoples had long known how to grow crops. The real transformation of human life occurred when huge numbers of people began to rely primarily and permanently on the grain they grew and the animals they domesticated.
Agriculture made possible a more stable and secure life. With it Neolithic peoples developed, starting an energetic, creative time. They were responsible for many fundamental inventions and innovations that the modern world takes for granted. First is systematic agriculture – the reliance of Neolithic peoples on agriculture as their primary, not merely additional, source of food.
Thus they developed the primary economic activity of the entire ancient world and the basis of all modern life. With the settled routine of Neolithic farmers came the evolution of towns and eventually cities. Neolithic farmers usually raised more food than they could consume, and their surpluses permitted larger, healthier populations. Population growth in turn created an even greater reliance on settled farming, as only systematic agriculture could sustain the increased numbers of people. Since surpluses of food could also be traded for other goods, the Neolithic time witnessed the beginnings of large-scale exchange of goods. With the increasing complexity of Neolithic societies, writing emerged with the need to keep records and later by the urge to record experiences, learning, and beliefs.
The change to settled life also had a deep impact on the family. The shared needs and pressures that encourage extended-family ties are less urgent in settled than in nomadic (游牧的) societies. Ties to the extended family weakened. In towns and cities, the nuclear family was more dependent on its immediate neighbors than on distant relatives.
25．The passage talks mainly about ____________.
A．why many human societies depend on agriculture
B．what changes agriculture brought to human life
C．how Neolithic peoples discovered agriculture
D．why the first agricultural societies failed
26．With agriculture, Neolithic people no longer needed to ____________.
A．move from one place to another
B．exchange goods with others
C．domesticate wild animals
D．worry about their safety
27．“Their surpluses” (in paragraph 3) refer to ____________.
A．the amount of food they had to consume
B．the more food they produced than needed
C．the extent to which they relied on agriculture
D．the increase in population agriculture brought about
28．According to the passage, how did the shift to agricultural societies impact people’s family?
A．Family members began to work together to raise food
B．Immediate neighbors often became family members
C．The extended family became less important
D．The nuclear family became self-sufficient
Some people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family, and others believe that success mostly comes down to luck. I’m not going to say luck, talent, and circumstances don’t come into play because they do. Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence, and that’s just the reality of how life is.
However, to succeed in life, one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical. And, in addition to that, in order to get really good at something, one needs to spend at least 10,000 hours studying and practicing. To become great at certain things, it’ll require even more time, time that most people won’t put in.
This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. If you don’t enjoy what you do, it is going to feel like unbearable pain and will likely make you quit well before you ever become good at it.
When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success, you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there at a huge cost. It’s sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent, but thinking that way does you no good, and there’s a huge chance that you’re wrong anyway.
Whatever you do, if you want to become great at it, you need to work day in and day out, almost to the point of addiction, and over a long period of time. If you’re not willing to put in the time and work, don’t expect to receive any rewards. Consistent, hard work won’t guarantee you the level of success you may want, but it will guarantee that you will become rally good at whatever it is you put all that work into.
29．In Paragraph 2, the underlined word that refers to__________.
A．being good at something B．setting a practical goal
C．putting in more time D．succeeding in life
30．Successful people suggest doing what one loves because__________.
A．work makes one feel pain B．one tends to enjoy his work
C．one gives up his work easily D．it takes a lot of time to succeed
31．What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?
A．Successful people like to show their great skills.
B．People sometimes succeed without luck or talent.
C．People need to achieve success at the cost of life.
D．It helps to think that luck or talent leads to success.

Many educators fear students will use the artificial intelligence (AI) tool ChatGPT to write their reports or cheat on homework. But other teachers are including it in the classroom.
Donnie Piercey is a teacher in Lexington, Kentucky. He told his 23 5th-grade students to try and outsmart the tool that was creating writing assignments. Piercey says his job is to prepare students for a world where knowledge of AI will be required.

“Great progress and achievements on education have been made in Xinjiang,” Rahman said, adding she is one of the many people in Xinjiang to benefit from the country’s fair education policies.
Rahman has seven younger brothers and sisters, and her father passed away when she was 15. Life had been difficult for her family. With the help of the local government, Rahman and her seven siblings completed their nine-year compulsory education. She and her three sisters graduated from colleges and now work as teachers.
“It is the fair education policies that created a happy life for us,” said Rahman.
Rahman has been working with two classes of Xinjiang students in a senior middle school in Changqing district of Jinan, Shandong province since 2020.
“Children here have free accommodation and meals. In addition, they have subsidies for medical care and a student grant of 50 yuan ($7.50) every month,” said Rahman.

Rahman is now taking care of 65 girl students from Xinjiang. For these students, she is not only a teacher but a relative.
“The first thing that I need to do with the students is to change their attitudes on studying, as well as their parents’ attitudes on education to let them understand that only knowledge can upgrade their lives,” said Rahman.
“To care for the students is not to educate them with empty talk but with every detail and specific event in our daily life,” she said.
What kind of people we should cultivate, how and for whom — these are the fundamental issues that education must address, Rahman quoted from the report.

Egypt is home to more than 100 pyramids, including the landmark Giza pyramid which is the last-standing ancient wonder of the world. It is an example of the wisdom and skills of ancient development. The Great Pyramid of Giza has stood tall since the 26th Century BC, and took 27years to build, with around 2.3 million blocks of stone weighing 6 million tons.
Giza is actually made up of three pyramids, Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure—each one is named after a pharaoh (法老). Now, scientists are using High Energy Physics to scan (扫描) the Khufu structure at Giza. The new technology scans deeper into the pyramid than before, and then maps its inside structure.
What we see now is only the central structure of the Great Pyramid. Although the pyramid has been studied closely for centuries, there are two mysterious holes that have kept archaeologists puzzled.
One is around 98 feet long and 20 feet high and could be one large space or several rooms, according to scans of the pyramid, while the other is much smaller, just beyond the north face of the pyramid. Archaeologists are not sure what either space functioned as; the most exciting possibility is that the larger space is the hidden room to keep Khufu, who governed from around 2551BC to 2528BC．
Finding holes in pyramids isn’t unusual, though. Nowadays, though, we have the technology to find out, compared to days gone by when examinations would have to blow up the pyramids to explore.
“Since the instruments that are used are very large, they cannot be placed inside the pyramid, and therefore our approach is to put them outside and meticulously move them along the base. In this way, we can build up the required data set,” the team wrote in the paper. The technology is so precise that scientists may be able to even tell objects within the hole.
12．What can be learned about the Great Pyramid of Giza?
A．It is named after a pharaoh. B．It is the largest ancient wonder of the world.
C．It was built with around 6 million stones. D．It has a history of more than 4, 000 years.
13．What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A．The owner of the pyramid. B．The two mysterious holes.
C．The advanced research technology. D．The central structure of the Giza pyramid.
14．What does the author think of the examinations in the days gone by?
A．They caused damage. B．They took long to carry out.
C．They used no equipment. D．They explained almost all puzzles.
15．What does the underlined word “meticulously” in paragraph 6 mean?
A．Carefully. B．Quickly. C．Formally. D．Secretly.

When Brad Ryan was young. He used to spend a good time with his grandma Joy. Ryan says, “I remember sleepovers at her house when she would teach me to make cookies.”
The two became distant (遥远的) when Ryan’s parents divorced (离婚), but then ran into each other 10 years later. Realizing how much he liked his grandmother and missed that lost time, he made a plan to spend time with her.
About eight years ago, Ryan was telling Joy about his 2009 hike and many adventures living in the wilderness. “Her eyes softened and then she matter-of-factly said, ‘I regret that I didn’t get to see more things in life. It would have been nice to see the mountains,’ ” Ryan recalls. “My heart broke for her.”
It wasn’t until a few years later that the two took a trip to the Great Smoke Mountains. After a stressful work schedule, Ryan needed an escape to nature. So he invited his grandma to travel with him. They arrived late at night in the rain with Joy holding the umbrella while Ryan set up the tent. At 85, she had never slept in a tent before, but she climbed 2.3 miles on a trail, receiving high-fives all the way.
“It was a life-changing trip that provided more purpose than anything I had ever done,” Ryan says. “Two years later I set up a GoFundMe called Grandma Joy’s Road Trip in the spirit of making up for the lost time and proving that you’re never too old to pack in a lifetime of adventure and travel.”
In the past four years, they’re travelled more than 25,000 miles across 38 states. So far, they’ve visited 29 of the 61 US national parks, with much of the adventure documented on Instagram.
“You never know what’s going to come out of her mouth, and it’s usually interesting. I wouldn’t want to travel the country with anyone else at this point. Of course we bet tired and have our angry moments. There have been difficult moments that we had to work through, but finally we get to where we need to be.”

Around 7,000 B．C．(during the Neolithic period), some hunters and gatherers began to rely chiefly on agriculture for their life. Indeed, agriculture itself evolved over the course of time and Neolithic peoples had long known how to grow crops. The real transformation of human life occurred when huge numbers of people began to rely primarily and permanently on the grain they grew and the animals they domesticated.
Agriculture made possible a more stable and secure life. With it Neolithic peoples developed, starting an energetic, creative time. They were responsible for many fundamental inventions and innovations that the modern world takes for granted. First is systematic agriculture – the reliance of Neolithic peoples on agriculture as their primary, not merely additional, source of food.
Thus they developed the primary economic activity of the entire ancient world and the basis of all modern life. With the settled routine of Neolithic farmers came the evolution of towns and eventually cities. Neolithic farmers usually raised more food than they could consume, and their surpluses permitted larger, healthier populations. Population growth in turn created an even greater reliance on settled farming, as only systematic agriculture could sustain the increased numbers of people. Since surpluses of food could also be traded for other goods, the Neolithic time witnessed the beginnings of large-scale exchange of goods. With the increasing complexity of Neolithic societies, writing emerged with the need to keep records and later by the urge to record experiences, learning, and beliefs.
The change to settled life also had a deep impact on the family. The shared needs and pressures that encourage extended-family ties are less urgent in settled than in nomadic (游牧的) societies. Ties to the extended family weakened. In towns and cities, the nuclear family was more dependent on its immediate neighbors than on distant relatives.
25．The passage talks mainly about ____________.
A．why many human societies depend on agriculture
B．what changes agriculture brought to human life
C．how Neolithic peoples discovered agriculture
D．why the first agricultural societies failed
26．With agriculture, Neolithic people no longer needed to ____________.
A．move from one place to another
B．exchange goods with others
C．domesticate wild animals
D．worry about their safety
27．“Their surpluses” (in paragraph 3) refer to ____________.
A．the amount of food they had to consume
B．the more food they produced than needed
C．the extent to which they relied on agriculture
D．the increase in population agriculture brought about
28．According to the passage, how did the shift to agricultural societies impact people’s family?
A．Family members began to work together to raise food
B．Immediate neighbors often became family members
C．The extended family became less important
D．The nuclear family became self-sufficient
Some people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family, and others believe that success mostly comes down to luck. I’m not going to say luck, talent, and circumstances don’t come into play because they do. Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence, and that’s just the reality of how life is.
However, to succeed in life, one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical. And, in addition to that, in order to get really good at something, one needs to spend at least 10,000 hours studying and practicing. To become great at certain things, it’ll require even more time, time that most people won’t put in.
This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. If you don’t enjoy what you do, it is going to feel like unbearable pain and will likely make you quit well before you ever become good at it.
When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success, you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there at a huge cost. It’s sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent, but thinking that way does you no good, and there’s a huge chance that you’re wrong anyway.
Whatever you do, if you want to become great at it, you need to work day in and day out, almost to the point of addiction, and over a long period of time. If you’re not willing to put in the time and work, don’t expect to receive any rewards. Consistent, hard work won’t guarantee you the level of success you may want, but it will guarantee that you will become rally good at whatever it is you put all that work into.
29．In Paragraph 2, the underlined word that refers to__________.
A．being good at something B．setting a practical goal
C．putting in more time D．succeeding in life
30．Successful people suggest doing what one loves because__________.
A．work makes one feel pain B．one tends to enjoy his work
C．one gives up his work easily D．it takes a lot of time to succeed
31．What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?
A．Successful people like to show their great skills.
B．People sometimes succeed without luck or talent.
C．People need to achieve success at the cost of life.
D．It helps to think that luck or talent leads to success.
