A
Fairy Tale-Like Destinations You Can See in Real Life
Zhangjiajie National Forest Park (China)
Zhangjiajie National Forest Park is part of the larger protected Wulingyuan Scenic Area in China’s Hunan province. The 3000 towering sandstone pillars in this huge park are breathtaking. Some are more than 600 feet tall, and most have vegetation growing on their sides and summits.
The Chocolate Hills (Philippines)
There are around 1,776 hills covering a 20-square-mile area in the towns of Carmen, Batuan, and Sagbayan, each with a seemingly perfect conical shape. The hills range from 100 feet to almost 400 feet in height. The most widely accepted theory of their origin is that they consist of coral deposits (珊瑚沉积物) that were forced upward due to rainwater and erosion.
Much of the year, the hills are covered with green grass, which increases their charming appearance. However, during the dry season, the grass turns deep brown, giving them their “chocolate” tag.
Deadvlei (Namibia)
Deadvlei, also spelled Dead Vlei, is a plain surrounded by red sand dunes in the Namib Desert. The site is so unique because trees once grew there, but shifting dunes and climate change killed the vegetation over time. The air was so dry that the trees never rotted, thus becoming skeletons. But they are not scary. These rare trees are estimated to be around 900 years old. The combination of tall red dunes, bright clay flats, and tree skeletons combine to create a fantastic atmosphere that inspires tourists to visit.
Lake Hillier (Australia)
Lake Hillier sits on Middle Island off the coast of Western Australia. Hillier is a small lake, less than 2,000 feet in length, but it grabs people’s attention because of its incredible bright pink color. It is especially noticeable because it contrasts with the neighboring blue ocean and the surrounding green leaves.
Why the lake is pink is not 100% clear, but the theory is that it’s caused by the interaction between the salty water and a specific type of micro algae (微藻类) that grows well under these specific conditions.
21. Of the following destinations, whose popularity is least related to color?
A. Deadvlei. B. Lake Hillier.
C. The Chocolate Hills. D. Zhangjiajie National Forest Park.
22. What made tree skeletons in Deadvlei?
A. The sand dunes. B. The dry air.
C. The clay flats. D. The salty soil.
23. What is the purpose of the text?
A. To analyze the formation of some scenic spots.
B. To explain the roles of color in fairy tales.
C. To introduce some fascinating scenic areas.
D. To show the ways of visiting exceptional destinations.
B
Eight months after my father died, I saw some letters on top of my mother’s coffee table. They were tied with a silk ribbon and addressed to her decades ago in my father’s neat handwriting. I couldn’t imagine my serious father ever writing anything like love letters.
“Would you like me to read them to you?” Mom asked with a hint of a smile.
The letters were written in 1974 over the course of a month when my father traveled to Italy to care for his beloved, sick mother, leaving his wife and me, their newborn daughter, behind in Toronto, the city my parents called home after immigrating to Canada from Italy in 1956.
Growing up, my father was my hero and protector, but he was also a man of few words, part of a generation of immigrant men who worked hard for a better life.
I sat back while my mother read his letters to me, and thought, “Who is this guy?” My father used endearing terms I had never heard him say. He referred to my mother as “my dearest” and “my companion” who was always in his thoughts. In each letter, he enclosed a Canadian one-dollar bill for me and declared, “You and your mother are my life.”
As children, we assume we know everything about our parents. But, sometimes, we find that they were and are people with various facets.
My father was proud and stubborn, and he married a woman who was his equal in that regard. During their 58-year marriage, their stubbornness often led to conflict. So it was bittersweet to hear my father’s youthful sentiments read aloud by my elderly mother with a wistful (留恋的) tone. I knew she was thinking about what could have been and what had been once upon a time. After she finished reading the letters, I held them in my hands and examined them like they were fossils. Although a man I knew as economical with his thoughts, he had filled the front and back of several pages.
These letters are only part of their correspondence. My mother wrote back to my father. One day she will read those letters to me, which she’s assured me. And just as with my father, they might help me discover another dimension of a parent I never knew before.
24. What kind of person did the author think her father was?
A. Violent. B. Optimistic. C. Sensitive. D. Reserved.
25. What can we know about the author’s parents according to the text?
A. Her father worked in Italy.
B. They didn’t get on well with each other.
C. They were identical in terms of stubbornness.
D. Her mother didn’t reply to the letters from her father.
26. What does the underlined word “facets” in Paragraph 6 most probably mean?
A. Divisions B. Dimensions. C. Goals. D. Interests.
27. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. A Different Father in Love Letters B. The Hidden Sides of My Parents
C. In Memory of My Late Father D. Love Stories of My Parents
C
Microsoft is investing $10 billion in OpenAI, whose artificial intelligence tool ChatGPT has lit up the Internet since its introduction in November, accumulating more than 1 million users within days and touching off a fresh debate over the role of AI in the workplace.
Its ability to provide in-depth answers to user’s questions has even drawn the attention of distinguished technology companies. The intelligent robot understands what the user says or types and then responds in a way that makes sense. Its vast body of knowledge has been gathered from the Internet and archived(归档)books. This makes ChatGPT a useful tool for researching almost any topic.
“We have a lot of information on the Internet, but you normally have to Google it, then read it and then do something with it,” says Ricardo, chief science officer and co-founder of AI company Erudit. “Now you’ll have this resource that can process the whole Internet and all of the information it contains for you to answer your question.”
ChatGPT cannot think on its own. It depends on the information that it has been trained on. As a result, the AI tool works well for things that have accurate data available. However, when unsure, ChatGPT can get creative and flow out incorrect responses. OpenAI cautions users to check the information no matter how logical it sounds. Also, ChatGPT has only been trained with information till 2021. Hence, it cannot be relied on for anything that happened after that.
Experts believe ChatGPT has limitless potential to solve real-world problems. It can translate long texts into different languages, create content on almost any topic, and even summarize books.
However, ChatGPT has received mixed reactions from educators. Some believe it could serve as a valuable tool to help build literacy skills in the classroom. It could also be used to teach students difficult science or math concepts. But other educators think ChatGPT will encourage students to cheat. They fear this will prevent them from building critical thinking and problem-solving skills. As a result, many districts are starting to ban its use in schools.
28. ChatGPT is special because ________.
A. it can think on its own B. it can answer users’ questions
C. it gets involved in meaningful talks D. it has a large number of users
29. What makes ChatGPT helpful to research various topics?
A. Its capability of information processing. B. Its accurate information.
C. Its availability of instant responses. D. Its vast body of questions.
30. What can be inferred about ChatGPT from Paragraph 4?
A. It shouldn’t be relied on for lack of creativity.
B. Users have to be cautious when using it.
C. We can consult it about anything in the past.
D. All the responses it gives are logical.
31. What is the author’s attitude towards ChatGPT?
A. Favorable. B. Disapproving. C. Objective. D. Intolerant.
D
Imagine cozying up in your bed after a long day. You scroll through your favorite social media apps for what feels like ten minutes, but then you realize hours have passed. You promise yourself just five more minutes — then it’s 3:00 am. You wake up tired the next morning and go to work dizzy but do the same thing again that night. You know you need the rest, but you still stay up and sacrifice sleep to scroll aimlessly on your smartphone.
You are not alone. This phenomenon is called revenge bedtime procrastination (RBP), which is defined by the Sleep Foundation as “the decision to sacrifice sleep for leisure time that is driven by a daily schedule lacking in free time.” In other words, it occurs when people stay up late at night to do things they enjoy, such as scrolling the Internet or watching TV, because they feel they lack the freedom to do these things during the daytime.
How do you know if you’re engaging in RBP? Ask yourself these questions: Do you delay going to sleep because you would rather do other things that you enjoy, such as watching TV or YouTube videos or playing video games? Do you stay up late to spend time with friends or family? Do you miss out on sleep even though you know it’s important and that there are consequences to pay for feeling tired? Do you feel deprived of your personal life and free time to simply relax? Does your day mostly seem out of your control? Do you delay getting projects done, exercising or completing chores?
What puts someone at risk for engaging in RBP? Being a “night owl” can make people more inclined to stay up late. Dealing with significant daytime stress, especially tied to work, is a big risk factor. Working extended hours or having a long commute are other risks, since these leave little or no time for entertainment or relaxation.
A lack of sleep is tied to many different physical and mental health problems. When revenge bedtime procrastination leads to too little sleep, it can cause negative effects on your well-being, such as: fatigue, reduced motivation and productivity, heightened risk of drowsy driving and accidents, worsened anxiety symptoms, reduced self-regulation, metabolic (新陈代谢) disorders, weight gain, obesity, and even some bacterial infections and viruses.
32. Why do people develop revenge bedtime procrastination?
A. They want to find excuses for sleeping late.
B. They strive to fulfil what they ought to do.
C. They hope to effectively resist fatigue and obesity.
D. They seek to make up for what they can’t do during daytime.
33. Which of the following is an example of RBP?
A. Eating the tasty chocolate at eight o’clock in the evening.
B. Drinking and chatting with your friends or family at weekends.
C. Delaying sleep time to watch your favourite TV series.
D. Working with colleagues to complete important projects at night.
34. Which of the following is NOT the cause of an increased risk of RBP?
A. You are a person who enjoys staying up late at night.
B. You can scroll your phone during subway commuting hours.
C. You have to overcome great pressure associated with work.
D. You are continuously asked to work overtime by your boss.
35. What is the text mainly about?
A. A brief introduction to RBP. B. Symptoms related to RBP.
C. Negative effects produced by RBP. D. The risks of engaging in RBP.

Possible version
Dear Sir /Madam,
I’m Li Hua, an exchange student from China. Learning that volunteers are wanted for a classical Chinese music concern to be held in a local concert hall, I feel delighted and decide to apply for the position.
Frankly speaking, it is the intention of improving myself and helping visitors know more about the unique Chinese art form that drives me to seize this golden opportunity.
When it comes to my strengths, not only do I have a good command of English, I am also outgoing and ready to help others, which I think can make me qualified as a volunteer. What’s more, having served a local concert hall in China for nearly two years, I have rich experience in organization and presentation, contributing to my confidence of doing the job well.
I’d appreciate it if you could take me into consideration. Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua

Fairy Tale-Like Destinations You Can See in Real Life
Zhangjiajie National Forest Park (China)
Zhangjiajie National Forest Park is part of the larger protected Wulingyuan Scenic Area in China’s Hunan province. The 3000 towering sandstone pillars in this huge park are breathtaking. Some are more than 600 feet tall, and most have vegetation growing on their sides and summits.
The Chocolate Hills (Philippines)
There are around 1,776 hills covering a 20-square-mile area in the towns of Carmen, Batuan, and Sagbayan, each with a seemingly perfect conical shape. The hills range from 100 feet to almost 400 feet in height. The most widely accepted theory of their origin is that they consist of coral deposits (珊瑚沉积物) that were forced upward due to rainwater and erosion.
Much of the year, the hills are covered with green grass, which increases their charming appearance. However, during the dry season, the grass turns deep brown, giving them their “chocolate” tag.
Deadvlei (Namibia)
Deadvlei, also spelled Dead Vlei, is a plain surrounded by red sand dunes in the Namib Desert. The site is so unique because trees once grew there, but shifting dunes and climate change killed the vegetation over time. The air was so dry that the trees never rotted, thus becoming skeletons. But they are not scary. These rare trees are estimated to be around 900 years old. The combination of tall red dunes, bright clay flats, and tree skeletons combine to create a fantastic atmosphere that inspires tourists to visit.
Lake Hillier (Australia)
Lake Hillier sits on Middle Island off the coast of Western Australia. Hillier is a small lake, less than 2,000 feet in length, but it grabs people’s attention because of its incredible bright pink color. It is especially noticeable because it contrasts with the neighboring blue ocean and the surrounding green leaves.
Why the lake is pink is not 100% clear, but the theory is that it’s caused by the interaction between the salty water and a specific type of micro algae (微藻类) that grows well under these specific conditions.
21. Of the following destinations, whose popularity is least related to color?
A. Deadvlei. B. Lake Hillier.
C. The Chocolate Hills. D. Zhangjiajie National Forest Park.
22. What made tree skeletons in Deadvlei?
A. The sand dunes. B. The dry air.
C. The clay flats. D. The salty soil.
23. What is the purpose of the text?
A. To analyze the formation of some scenic spots.
B. To explain the roles of color in fairy tales.
C. To introduce some fascinating scenic areas.
D. To show the ways of visiting exceptional destinations.
B
Eight months after my father died, I saw some letters on top of my mother’s coffee table. They were tied with a silk ribbon and addressed to her decades ago in my father’s neat handwriting. I couldn’t imagine my serious father ever writing anything like love letters.
“Would you like me to read them to you?” Mom asked with a hint of a smile.
The letters were written in 1974 over the course of a month when my father traveled to Italy to care for his beloved, sick mother, leaving his wife and me, their newborn daughter, behind in Toronto, the city my parents called home after immigrating to Canada from Italy in 1956.
Growing up, my father was my hero and protector, but he was also a man of few words, part of a generation of immigrant men who worked hard for a better life.
I sat back while my mother read his letters to me, and thought, “Who is this guy?” My father used endearing terms I had never heard him say. He referred to my mother as “my dearest” and “my companion” who was always in his thoughts. In each letter, he enclosed a Canadian one-dollar bill for me and declared, “You and your mother are my life.”
As children, we assume we know everything about our parents. But, sometimes, we find that they were and are people with various facets.
My father was proud and stubborn, and he married a woman who was his equal in that regard. During their 58-year marriage, their stubbornness often led to conflict. So it was bittersweet to hear my father’s youthful sentiments read aloud by my elderly mother with a wistful (留恋的) tone. I knew she was thinking about what could have been and what had been once upon a time. After she finished reading the letters, I held them in my hands and examined them like they were fossils. Although a man I knew as economical with his thoughts, he had filled the front and back of several pages.
These letters are only part of their correspondence. My mother wrote back to my father. One day she will read those letters to me, which she’s assured me. And just as with my father, they might help me discover another dimension of a parent I never knew before.
24. What kind of person did the author think her father was?
A. Violent. B. Optimistic. C. Sensitive. D. Reserved.
25. What can we know about the author’s parents according to the text?
A. Her father worked in Italy.
B. They didn’t get on well with each other.
C. They were identical in terms of stubbornness.
D. Her mother didn’t reply to the letters from her father.
26. What does the underlined word “facets” in Paragraph 6 most probably mean?
A. Divisions B. Dimensions. C. Goals. D. Interests.
27. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. A Different Father in Love Letters B. The Hidden Sides of My Parents
C. In Memory of My Late Father D. Love Stories of My Parents
C
Microsoft is investing $10 billion in OpenAI, whose artificial intelligence tool ChatGPT has lit up the Internet since its introduction in November, accumulating more than 1 million users within days and touching off a fresh debate over the role of AI in the workplace.
Its ability to provide in-depth answers to user’s questions has even drawn the attention of distinguished technology companies. The intelligent robot understands what the user says or types and then responds in a way that makes sense. Its vast body of knowledge has been gathered from the Internet and archived(归档)books. This makes ChatGPT a useful tool for researching almost any topic.
“We have a lot of information on the Internet, but you normally have to Google it, then read it and then do something with it,” says Ricardo, chief science officer and co-founder of AI company Erudit. “Now you’ll have this resource that can process the whole Internet and all of the information it contains for you to answer your question.”
ChatGPT cannot think on its own. It depends on the information that it has been trained on. As a result, the AI tool works well for things that have accurate data available. However, when unsure, ChatGPT can get creative and flow out incorrect responses. OpenAI cautions users to check the information no matter how logical it sounds. Also, ChatGPT has only been trained with information till 2021. Hence, it cannot be relied on for anything that happened after that.
Experts believe ChatGPT has limitless potential to solve real-world problems. It can translate long texts into different languages, create content on almost any topic, and even summarize books.
However, ChatGPT has received mixed reactions from educators. Some believe it could serve as a valuable tool to help build literacy skills in the classroom. It could also be used to teach students difficult science or math concepts. But other educators think ChatGPT will encourage students to cheat. They fear this will prevent them from building critical thinking and problem-solving skills. As a result, many districts are starting to ban its use in schools.
28. ChatGPT is special because ________.
A. it can think on its own B. it can answer users’ questions
C. it gets involved in meaningful talks D. it has a large number of users
29. What makes ChatGPT helpful to research various topics?
A. Its capability of information processing. B. Its accurate information.
C. Its availability of instant responses. D. Its vast body of questions.
30. What can be inferred about ChatGPT from Paragraph 4?
A. It shouldn’t be relied on for lack of creativity.
B. Users have to be cautious when using it.
C. We can consult it about anything in the past.
D. All the responses it gives are logical.
31. What is the author’s attitude towards ChatGPT?
A. Favorable. B. Disapproving. C. Objective. D. Intolerant.
D
Imagine cozying up in your bed after a long day. You scroll through your favorite social media apps for what feels like ten minutes, but then you realize hours have passed. You promise yourself just five more minutes — then it’s 3:00 am. You wake up tired the next morning and go to work dizzy but do the same thing again that night. You know you need the rest, but you still stay up and sacrifice sleep to scroll aimlessly on your smartphone.
You are not alone. This phenomenon is called revenge bedtime procrastination (RBP), which is defined by the Sleep Foundation as “the decision to sacrifice sleep for leisure time that is driven by a daily schedule lacking in free time.” In other words, it occurs when people stay up late at night to do things they enjoy, such as scrolling the Internet or watching TV, because they feel they lack the freedom to do these things during the daytime.
How do you know if you’re engaging in RBP? Ask yourself these questions: Do you delay going to sleep because you would rather do other things that you enjoy, such as watching TV or YouTube videos or playing video games? Do you stay up late to spend time with friends or family? Do you miss out on sleep even though you know it’s important and that there are consequences to pay for feeling tired? Do you feel deprived of your personal life and free time to simply relax? Does your day mostly seem out of your control? Do you delay getting projects done, exercising or completing chores?
What puts someone at risk for engaging in RBP? Being a “night owl” can make people more inclined to stay up late. Dealing with significant daytime stress, especially tied to work, is a big risk factor. Working extended hours or having a long commute are other risks, since these leave little or no time for entertainment or relaxation.
A lack of sleep is tied to many different physical and mental health problems. When revenge bedtime procrastination leads to too little sleep, it can cause negative effects on your well-being, such as: fatigue, reduced motivation and productivity, heightened risk of drowsy driving and accidents, worsened anxiety symptoms, reduced self-regulation, metabolic (新陈代谢) disorders, weight gain, obesity, and even some bacterial infections and viruses.
32. Why do people develop revenge bedtime procrastination?
A. They want to find excuses for sleeping late.
B. They strive to fulfil what they ought to do.
C. They hope to effectively resist fatigue and obesity.
D. They seek to make up for what they can’t do during daytime.
33. Which of the following is an example of RBP?
A. Eating the tasty chocolate at eight o’clock in the evening.
B. Drinking and chatting with your friends or family at weekends.
C. Delaying sleep time to watch your favourite TV series.
D. Working with colleagues to complete important projects at night.
34. Which of the following is NOT the cause of an increased risk of RBP?
A. You are a person who enjoys staying up late at night.
B. You can scroll your phone during subway commuting hours.
C. You have to overcome great pressure associated with work.
D. You are continuously asked to work overtime by your boss.
35. What is the text mainly about?
A. A brief introduction to RBP. B. Symptoms related to RBP.
C. Negative effects produced by RBP. D. The risks of engaging in RBP.

Possible version
Dear Sir /Madam,
I’m Li Hua, an exchange student from China. Learning that volunteers are wanted for a classical Chinese music concern to be held in a local concert hall, I feel delighted and decide to apply for the position.
Frankly speaking, it is the intention of improving myself and helping visitors know more about the unique Chinese art form that drives me to seize this golden opportunity.
When it comes to my strengths, not only do I have a good command of English, I am also outgoing and ready to help others, which I think can make me qualified as a volunteer. What’s more, having served a local concert hall in China for nearly two years, I have rich experience in organization and presentation, contributing to my confidence of doing the job well.
I’d appreciate it if you could take me into consideration. Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
