ChatGPT--a conversational language model which was launched in November and is free and simple to use -- can swiftly produce poems, math equations or essays on topics, bringing concern that students will misuse the technology. And because it doesn’t copy an existing text, there is no easy way to be certain whether a human or a bot wrote the answer.
As many educators began to worry about whether students may use ChatGPT to generate papers, Edward Tian had an idea. The 22-year-old student, who studies computer science and journalism, decided to build an app to detect whether a text- was human-written or AI-written.
Over a few days in a Toronto coffee shop during winter break, he got to work. On Jan. 2, he launched’ GPTZero. It analyzes different properties of a text for its “perplexity”, which is the randomness of the text, and the “burstiness”, which is the variation of the text over time. So, a human-written text would have high perplexity, something very unfamiliar to an Al model, and exhibit properties of burstiness, which are non-common items that appear in random clusters (集 群), rather than being uniformly distributed.
Tian said he expected a few dozen people to ever try it. But he woke up the next morning stunned by the response. He has even heard from people all over the world— many of them are teachers or college admissions officers, Many people have subscribed for updates from Tian as he works to improve the technology.
The quick response to Tian’s effort highlighted the breakneck pace at which technology is changing classrooms, teaching, and the ways that people define and understand learning. Tian believed everyone deserved to reap the benefits of Al, but safeguards were needed to make sure new technologies were not abused.
Tian said it would be sad if, years from now, people mostly relied on AI and writing became far more uniform. “There’s something implicitly(含蓄地) beautiful in human prose,” he said, “that computers can never copy.”
8. Why did Edward Tian create GPTZero?
A. To predict abuse of ChatGPT.
B. To analyse properties of texts.
C. To relieve educators of anxiety.
D. To recognize Al-generated texts.
9. What features do human-written texts share?
A. They are random and varied.
B. They are plain and unfamiliar.
C. They are common and diverse.
D. They are uniform and complex.
10. What does the public think of Tian’s invention?
A. It is safely guarded.
B. It is highly anticipated.
C. It is quickly updated.
D. It is thoroughly developed.
11. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Human will win the competition against AI.
B. Most people will benefit from AI in the future.
C. Writing will become more common than before.
D. There is incomparable charm in Human writings.
【答案】8. D 9. A 10. B 11. D

D

The number of seabirds killed by colliding (撞击) with wind turbines could be cut by painting black-and-white stripes on the blades (叶片), and poles, say researchers. Graham Martin at the University of Birmingham, UK, and Alex Banks at Natural England, a public organization that has a say in planning applications for offshore wind farms in England, wanted to design a pattern that could be easily painted onto turbines to reduce their impact on bird life.
Between 140,000 and 328,000 birds are killed each year by onshore wind turbines in the US, according to, one estimate. It is harder to tell how many birds are killed by offshore turbines each year, says Martin, as they fall into the ocean.
A previous study, published in 2020, looked at the effect of painting a single blade black on four onshore turbines in Norway. Bird collisions were reduced by 70 percent compared with all-white turbines nearby. Martin believes that further improvements could have an even greater impact. Based on analysis of previous studies into bird vision and bird collisions with wind turbines, the two researchers came up with a series of guiding principles to aid their design of a turbine that would harm. fewer birds.
“Most birds do not see too much fine detail in their vision - especially compared to humans,” says Martin, so any design shouldn’t be too complex. Many collisions occur in low light, so the design should be easy to decipher in the dark, while high internal contrast would help the turbine stand out against different backgrounds, such as a cloudy or sunny sky. In low levels of light, black-and-white patterns are best, says Martin. “In the dark, a red-and-white pattern would rapidly look like shades of grey,” he says. The design hasn’t yet been tested, but Martin hopes that manufacturers will consider it, particularly as it would be easy and cheap to implement.
12. What can we know about Martin and Banks?
A. They have a say in planning applications.
B. They improve the efficiency of wind turbines.
C. They seek to reduce negative influence on bird life.
D They design colorful turbines to help birds see clear.
13. What’s the purpose of the second paragraph?
A. To state the seriousness of bird collisions. B. To estimate the death rate of bird collisions.
C. To compare the different wind turbine designs. D. To criticize the poor design of the wind turbines.
14. What does the underlined word “decipher” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Differ. B. Recognize. C. Clarify. D. Impress.
15. What is the text mainly about?
A. A severe seabird collision phenomenon. B. A new study on seabirds vision.
C. A potential wind turbine application. D. A novel wind turbine design.
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. B 15. D
【解析】

【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Graham Martin at the University of Birmingham, UK, and Alex Banks at Natural England, a public organization that has a say in planning applications for offshore wind farms in England, wanted to design a pattern that could be easily painted onto turbines to reduce their impact on bird life.( 英国伯明翰大学的格雷厄姆·马丁和自然英格兰的亚历克斯·班克斯想要设计一种图案，可以很容易地涂在涡轮机上，以减少它们对鸟类的影响，自然英格兰是一个公共组织，在英国海上风力发电厂的规划应用中有发言权)”可知，马丁和班克斯在寻找减少对鸟类生活产生负面影响的办法。故选C。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Between 140,000 and 328,000 birds are killed each year by onshore wind turbines in the US, according to, one estimate. It is harder to tell how many birds are killed by offshore turbines each year, says Martin, as they fall into the ocean.(据估计，在美国，每年有14万到32.8万只鸟被陆上风力涡轮机杀死。马丁说，很难统计每年有多少鸟被海上涡轮机杀死，因为它们落入了海洋)”可推知，第二段的目的是陈述鸟类碰撞的严重性。故选A。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线词上文“Many collisions occur in low light, so the design should be easy to”以及后文“while high internal contrast would help the turbine stand out against different backgrounds, such as a cloudy or sunny sky”可知，许多碰撞发生在低光下，所以设计应该很容易在黑暗中被鸟类识别，而高内部对比度将帮助涡轮机在不同的背景下脱颖而出，比如多云或晴朗的天空。故画线词意思是“识别”。故选B。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“The number of seabirds killed by colliding (撞击) with wind turbines could be cut by painting black-and-white stripes on the blades (叶片), and poles, say researchers.(研究人员说，与风力涡轮机相撞而死亡的海鸟数量可以通过在叶片和杆子上涂上黑白条纹来减少)”结合文章还介绍了鸟类撞上风力涡轮机的严重性以及这种图案的工作原理。可知，这篇文章的主要内容是一种新颖的风力涡轮机设计。故选D。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。报道了最近大火的现象：政府官员利用短视频宣传自己所在的地方。
【36题详解】
考查过去分词。句意：这些视频发布在抖音等短视频平台上，吸引了网友的大量关注，点赞并表现出兴趣。分析句意可知，动词publish“发布”在句中作后置定语修饰the videos“视频”，二者构成被动关系，故使用过去分词作定语。故填published。
【37题详解】
考查名词复数。句意：在这些富有创造力的公务员中，尹文涛为自己能在宣传视频中帮助宣传家乡临洮县而感到自豪。分析句意可知，可数名词servant“仆人”在句中未被表示单数概念的量词和冠词修饰，故应该使用复数形式。故填servants。
【38题详解】
考查主谓一致。句意：该县拥有丰富的文化资源，包括马家窑文化和秦代（公元前221年至公元前206年）长城西起点遗址。分析句意可知，动词possess“拥有”在句中做谓语动词，与主语，即单数形式名词the county“县”构成主动关系，且表示的是一般状态，故使用一般现在时，即动词使用第三人称单数。故填possesses。
【39题详解】
考查介词。句意：20世纪20年代，该遗址在马家窑村被发现，可追溯到千年以前，自1988年以来一直作为全国重点文物保护单位保存。分析句意可知，本句使用了动词介词短语date back to表示“追溯到”。故填to。
【40题详解】
考查时态。句意：20世纪20年代，该遗址在马家窑村被发现，可追溯到千年以前，自1988年以来一直作为全国重点文物保护单位保存。分析句意可知，动词preserve “保存”在句中作并列谓语，其与主语，单数名词site“该遗址”构成被动关系，因为时间状语从句为since 1988“自1988年以来”，故使用现在完成时的被动语态。故填has been preserved。
【41题详解】
考查形容词。句意：随着越来越多的视频出现在各种网络短视频平台上，越来越多的地方逐渐被更多的人所熟知，接待了更多的访客。分析句意可知，名词variety“种类”在句中作定语修饰platforms“平台”，故应该使用形容词形式various“各种各样的”。故填various。
【42题详解】
考查副词。句意：随着越来越多的视频出现在各种网络短视频平台上，越来越多的地方逐渐被更多的人所熟知，接待了更多的访客。分析句意可知，形容词gradual “逐渐的”在句中作状语修饰谓语动词have been known“被熟知”，故应该使用副词形式。故填gradually。
【43题详解】
考查冠词。句意：利用新媒体平台上的短视频宣传旅游业已成为一种有效的宣传渠道。分析句意可知，可数名词channel“渠道”未呈现出复数形式，故前要添加不定冠词表示单数概念，因空格后有形容词effective“有效的”，故使用不定冠词an。故填an。
【44题详解】
考查不定式。句意：所有这些都反映了当地政府对快速发展旅游业和当地经济的强烈愿望，这表明官员们对家乡的发展有着强烈的责任感。分析句意可知，动词develop“发展”在句中是对前文名词desire“强烈愿望”的修饰，需要使用不定式作后置定语。故填to develop。
【45题详解】
考查关系代词。句意：所有这些都反映了当地政府对快速发展旅游业和当地经济的强烈愿望，这表明官员们对家乡的发展有着强烈的责任感。分析句意可知，此处应该使用关系代词which引导非限定性定语从句，修饰前面的主句，在从句中作主语。故填which。

【答案】Last week, our school launched a tree planting activity, calling on students of all grades to actively participate in it. I jumped at the opportunity.
On Tree Planting Day, we gathered at the school gate and took a coach to the destination. The teachers first showed us how to plant trees. Then we were divided into small groups to fulfill our task. We dug a hole, lay a seedling in it and put the soil back before we watered it. Finally, we used some sticks and strings to hold the newly planted tree in place.
Tired as I felt, I considered it a meaningful activity. I learned a significant life lesson: harvest and comfort can’t coexist. The same is true for study.

第二节(满分 25分)
47. 阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was a late Saturday afternoon in early March, and I was sweating gracelessly, in search of the only gift my son said he wanted from Los Angeles: a map to the homes of the stars.
I was here for meetings in Westwood, near the UCLA Medical Centre. Should I wander a little? Try to find one of the treasured maps?
From the front of the hotel taxi line, a cheerful driver said, ”No problem. Map vendors(小 贩) are everywhere!“ Before long, we saw a hand-painted sandwich board saying: Star Maps. The taxi stopped. A fellow approached with a thin folded sheet and said: ”Ten dollars. “
Ten dollars. American! With righteous assurance, I informed him, ”That’s too much. “ The map man shrugged. We continued, whizzing past the Beverly Hills Hotel into West Hollywood. The driver dropped me at the House of Blues, encouraging me to stroll. I began walking, certain I would find a low-cost star map soon.
I was wrong. There was hardly anybody on the street. There didn’t seem to be many real stores, just cars and bars. No maps. No stars. Blocks passed. The sun began to sink. At the edge of West Hollywood, another fellow appeared ahead, selling star maps to a car full of teenage girls.
Ten dollars still. Still too much. Forgot it. My son would understand. Time to go back to Westwood. That night, I called my wife. ” Did you get one of those maps to the stars? He’s been talking about nothing else. “ This news was hard to ignore. But it was late.
Morning was coming. There would be last try. After I checked out, the first taxi in the hotel line was an old Chevy driven by a skinny guy from North Carolina. At nine in the morning, map vendors were nowhere to be found,
”You know, “ said the driver, ” The guys with the maps just aren’t up yet!“ He was right.
”Forget it Let’s go to the airport. ”
“Well, ” said the driver, ”I could mail you one if you like. ”
Sure. Trust this guy? I might as well toss cash onto the freeway. But exiting the taxi, I recognized my last chance. I handed the driver $13 and my business card.

Three weeks passed, no reply form LA.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I held the package and the note in my hand, speechless.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Three weeks passed, no reply from LA. My son sighed with disappointment when carefully checking the mail box. Seeing his drooping head and gloomy eyes, I couldn’t help blaming myself for putting my easy trust on a total stranger and expecting him to realize my son’s wish. After all, in recent days no one would like to take the trouble to do this for an encounter with nothing in return. We had given up on the star map when a big white envelope marked “U.S.” unexpectedly reached us one afternoon. Inside the envelope was a small green package and a small note saying, “Forgive delay. Here’s a map for your son. Kind regards, LA!”
I held the package and the note in my hand, speechless. The whole thing was totally to my surprise. I had previously thought that an act of kindness from a stranger would not really existed. However, what I was experiencing right now proved that I was wrong. I was deeply ashamed of myself because I shouldn’t have assumed the driver’s intention to help someone in need. When my son saw the star map in my hand, his eyes sparkled with great excitement. Seemingly incapable of containing his joy, he hugged me tightly and exclaimed, “I can’t believe, dad, you did it!” I gently touched his head, explaining, “If you never trust anybody, you’ll never find the good man.”
