There's a new AI bot：ChatGPT，and you'd better pay attention，even if you aren't into artificial intelligence. The tool is an AI chatbot system that OpenAI publicly known in November 2022 to show off and test what a very large，powerful AI system can achieve.

ChatGPT remembers the logic of your dialogue，using earlier questions and answers to tell its next answers. It gets its answers from large number of information on the Internet. You can ask ChatGPT anything，like explaining physics，asking for birthday party ideas and getting programming help. Perhaps it's not smart enough to replace all humans yet，but it can be creative，and its answers can sound downright authoritative（权威的）.

A few days after its launch，more than 1 million people were trying out ChatGPT. UBS analyst Lloyd Walmsley predicted in February 2023 that ChatGPT reached 100 million monthly users in January，reaching in 2 months what took TikTok about 9 months and Instagram two and a half years.

ChatGPT is free to use at the moment because it is still in its research phase. But when too many people "jump"onto the server（服务器），it overloads and can't process your request. I       just means you should try visiting the site at a later time when fewer people are trying to use it. Then on Feb.1，2023，OpenAI has a ChatGPT pro plan，ChatGPT Plus，which allows users to be able to useit even during busy times. This service docs come at a cost of ＄20/month.

ChatGPT is an artificial intelligence bot that provides solutions to your questions，but Google is a search engine in which you can search for as much information as possible. ChatGPT has limited knowledge due to its programming but Google has unlimited knowledge which is updated every day.

There are several ways you can find out about the countries and places you wish to visit. You can talk to friends who have traveled to the places，you can go and see a colour film about them，or you can read a travel book.

It seems that there are three kinds of travel books. The first are those that give a personal，subjective（主观的） idea of travels which their writer has got himself. These books can be useful if the writers share their traveling experiences with others. The second kind are those books which give objective（客观的） information of things to be done and seen. If         has written such a book about the facts of a place，then it is more useful. The third kind are those books which are called "a guide" to some place or other. If they are good，they will describe and explain the place in detail. Like the first kind ，they can be interesting and exciting，but their main purpose is to help the reader plan his travel in the most practical way.

Whatever kind of travel book you choose，you must make sure that the book does not describe everything as interesting，exciting or fantastic. You must also keep an open eyes on its date of publication（出版） because travel is very practical matter and many things change quickly in the 21st century. Finally，you should make sure that it's easy to find the useful information for you travel.

The traditional Chinese lunar calendar divides a year into 24 solar terms （二十四节气）. Start of Summer，the 7th term of the year，begins on May 6 and ends on May 21 this year.

Start of Summer is the beginning of summer. On that day，the sun shines the Earth at an angle of 25 degrees，and later the temperature will rise quickly. Here are five things to learn more about it.

Greeting Start of Summer

The term Start of Summer was from the end of the Warring States Period（239 BC）. Since it is an important time for the harvest of summer crops，ancient Chinese emperors paid special attention to Start of Summer. It's said that most of the things were in the color red，including the clothes，the horses and the flags，to wish for a good harvest.

Checking One's Weight

The custom of weighing people at Start of Summer was from the Three Kingdoms Period （220﹣180）. After lunch on that day，the young and the old took turns to get weighed while the person who checked the weight would offer good wishes. It is said those who were weighed would stay healthy in the hot summer and those who weren't would be troubled with illness.

Eating Eggs

In ancient China，people believed a round egg represented a happy life and eating eggs on that day was a wish for good health. They put leftover tea into boiled water together with eggs. Then，the original（起初的） "tea egg" was created. Later，people improved cooking methods to make them taste delicious. "Tea egg" has become a traditional snack in China today.

Having Egg Competitions

Parents prepare boiled eggs and put them in a bag before hanging them on their children's chest. When at school，children have egg competitions by hitting eggs in pairs and the one whose egg is broken fails.

Looking After the Heart

According to Chinese traditional medicine，Start of Summer is a key time to moisten （湿润） the heart. When the weather grows hotter，dampness （潮湿） and heat can do harm to people's health. Food rich in vitamins and cool in nature is highly recommended. Vegetables such as tomatoes and carrots and fruits like watermelons and strawberries are top recommendations.

B) 根据短文内容及首字母提示,填写所缺单词,并将答案填写在答题卡标号为66-75的相应位置上.

At the same time，we can do our best to reach out to those who need support，i（70）       children and teenagers.

I've been working through my fund （基金） since 2017 to support children who have been left behind. According lo a report，there are almost 7 million left -Behind children in rural China. Most of them are f（71）       physical and mental （精神的） health problems along with other kinds of problems in t（72）      daily lives.
