On a cold January morning, a man sat at a subway station in Washington DC and started to play the violin. He played for about 45 minutes.

Three minutes went by, and a middle-aged man stopped for a few seconds, and then hurried up to take care of his own things.

A minute later, the violinist received his first tip: a woman threw some money without stopping, and walked away.

Only a 3-year-old boy took the music seriously, going over, sitting down and soon losing himself in the wonderful performance. His mother wished to hurry along, but the kid kept looking at the violinist.

When he finished playing, no one noticed it. No one applauded (鼓掌).

No one knew this, but the violinist was Joshua Bell, one of the most talented musicians in the world. He had just played one of the most beautiful pieces ever written, on a violin worth 3.5 million dollars. Joshua Bell played the same music with the same violin and the seats each cost 100 dollars at a theatre two days before.

Joshua Bell's playing in the subway station was a social experiment. It asks questions: in a common environment at a wrong hour, do we enjoy beauty? Do we stop to make a response (反应) ? If we do not have a moment to stop and listen to one of the best musicians in the world playing the best music. how many other things are we ignoring (忽视)?

4．What's the man's purpose of playing the violin at the subway station?

A．To make some money. B．To see people's response.

C．Enjoy beautiful music at a theatre.

D．Don't miss the wonderful moment in life.

7．What is the text mainly about?

A．A subway story. B．A music survey.

C．A social experiment. D．A talented musician.

Developed by US company OpenAI, ChatGPT has taken the internet by storm, winning 100 million users since it came out in November 2022. People can ask the robot to write stories and emails, create instructions for cooking a certain food, translate languages, and answer all kinds of questions. In its own words, it is "a language model trained in a large amount of internet text to help users get human-like text."

Compared with Siri or other chatbots, ChatGPT uses a much bigger information center for training. It also uses stronger software (软件) and hardware to learn things by itself. For example, if it provides a wrong answer to your question, you can tell it the right one and it will correct itself. "It's a totally different chatbot," computer scientist Liu Xiaoguang from Nankai University told Tianjin Daily. "The knowledge level ChatGPT shows is the same as a university student. That's why it shocked the world."

But one big problem with ChatGPT is that it makes mistakes or even gives false information. When Rezza, a 28-year-old from Indonesia, used the robot to write an essay (论文), it "gave out many examples which other writers actually hadn't mentioned at all", he told The Guardian. Since the robot is trained using words from the internet, it can also pick up biases (偏见) about certain groups. These are all things that need to be dealt with.

8．Which can replace the underlined part in Paragraph 1?

A．Succeeded greatly online.

B．Done harm to the internet.

C．Brought strong wind and heavy rain.

D．Caused serious changes of the weather.

9．Why did ChatGPT shock the world?

A．It can find mistakes by itself.

B．It works differently from other chatbots.

C．Its information center is easier to control than Siri's.

D．Its knowledge level is as high as a university student.

10．What can we learn from the last paragraph?

A．Anybody can make mistakes.

B．Anybody may give false information.

C．ChatGPT needs improvement.

D．ChatGPT can't get on well with humans.

11．What might be the best title of the text?

A．ChatGPT is Coming!

B．ChatGPT is Catching the World's Eyes!

C．Can ChatGPT Take the Place of Humans?

D．Can ChatGPT Avoid Biases Properly?

The Earth's going on a trip once again! Whether you have watched The Wandering Earth (流浪地球) in 2019 or not, the name must be well-known to you. Since it was China's first science fiction (科幻) film, the cinemas were soon so crowded when it was on. The Wandering Earth II came out on the first day of the Lunar New Year in 2023. It has become the newest hit.

As a prequel (前篇) to The Wandering Earth in 2019, the new movie describes the fact that humans are in danger of dying out for some reasons. To survive, they make different plans. Finally, they decide to build tens of thousands of huge engines on the surface of the Earth. They plan to drive the Earth to the nearest solar system. The movie shows how humans fight against disasters (灾难). In order to save the Earth, a group of young people have to step forward to start a race against time for life and death.

"The creators of The Wandering Earth II are very similar to the characters in the movie. Their great courage and creative spirit are the engine to push the ‘planet' of science fiction into the future," said Liu Cixin, writer of the story The Wandering Earth and the novel The Three-body Problem. "We all know that China's science fiction still has a long way to go. Luckily, there are a group of people who are working very hard for it."
