(C)
In 2020, OpenAI, a research lab in San Francisc, revealed a system called GPT-3. It is what artificial intelligence researchers call a neural(神经系统的) netwrk, after the web f neurns in the human brain. A neural netwrk is really a mathematical system that learns skills by lcating patterns in vast amunts f digital data. By analyzing thusands f cat phts, fr instance, it can learn t recgnize a cat. “We call it ‘artificial intelligence,’ but a better name might be ‘finding statistical patterns frm large data sets’,” said Dr. Gpnik, the Berkeley prfessr.
Mre recently researchers at places like Ggle and OpenAI began building neural netwrks that learned frm enrmus amunts f prse, including digital bks and Wikipedia articles by the thusands. GPT-3 is an example. As it analyzed all that digital text, it built what yu might call a mathematical map f human language — mre than 175 billin data pints that describe hw we piece wrds tgether. Using this map, it can perfrm many different tasks, like penning speeches, writing cmputer prgrams and having a cnversatin.
But there are limitatins. If yu ask GPT-3 fr 10 speeches in the vice f Mark Twain, it might give yu five that sund remarkably like the famus writer — and five thers that cme nwhere clse. Cmputer prgrammers use the technlgy t create small snippets(一小段) f cde they can slip int larger prgrams, but mre ften than nt they have t edit and adjust whatever it gives them.
Still, Dr. Gpnik described this kind f system as intelligent. “It is nt intelligent in the way humans are. It is like an unfamiliar frm f intelligence,” he said. “But it still cunts.”
Dr. Gpnik and many thers in the field are cnfident that they are n a path t building a machine that can d anything the human brain can d. This cnfidence shines thrugh when they discuss current technlgies. He admits that sme A.I. researchers “struggle t differentiate between reality and science fictin.” But he believes these researchers still serve a valuable rle. “They help us dream f the full range f the pssible,” he said.
Perhaps they d. But fr the rest f us, these dreams can get in the way f the issues that deserve ur attentin.
43. Which f the fllwing statements crrectly describes GPT-3?
A It is meant t mnitr human’s neurn webs.
B. It stres limitless data in its mathematical system.
C. It can identify images and emply human language.
D. It studies pictures and digital bks t invent patterns.
44. In paragraph 3, the example f cmputer prgrammers is used t __________.
A. illustrate GPT-3 is far frm perfect
B. warn prgrammers against technlgy
C. shw the prcess f slipping cde int prgram
D. explain why GPT-3 fails t find Mark Twain’s speeches
45. What des Dr. Gpnik think f the mathematical system f GPT-3?
A. He finds it valuable because it maximizes the current technlgies.
B. He dubts its wrth thugh it is remarkably similar t a human brain.
C. He thinks highly f it because it plays a valuable rle in A.I. research.
D He believes it will interrupt ur thinking thugh it differs frm science fictin.
46. What’s the authr’s attitude twards A.I.?
A. Enthusiastic.B. Oppsed.C. Supprtive.D. Uncncerned.
Sectin C
Directins: Read the fllwing passage. Fill in each blank with a prper sentence given in the bx. Each sentence can be used nly nce. Nte that there are tw mre sentences than yu need.
Hw t shw thers yu care
The idea that kindness can bst happiness is hardly new. Studies have shwn that prscial behavir — basically, vluntarily helping thers — can help lwer peple’s daily stress levels, and that simple acts f cnnectin, like texting a friend, mean mre than many f us realize. ___47___
“I have fund that kindness can be a really hard sell,” said Tara Cusineau, a clinical psychlgist, “Peple desire kindness yet ften feel trubled by the thught f being kind.” ___48___ They may questin whether their gesture r gift will be misinterpreted, r whether it will make the recipient feel pressured t pay it back.
___49___ Jennifer Oldham, wh lst her 9-year-ld daughter Hallie in July, recently created a Facebk grup — Keeping Kindness fr Hallie — that encurages participants t engage in randm acts f kindness. Peple have bught grceries and dnated schl supplies in Hallie’s hnr. “It will help yur wn heart, maybe even mre than the recipients,” said Ms. Oldham.
If yu are nt already in the habit f perfrming randm kind acts, r if it des nt cme naturally t yu, start by thinking abut what yu like t d. It’s nt abut yu being like, ‘Oh man, nw I have t learn hw t bake ckies in rder t be nice’. It’s abut: ___50___ And hw can yu turn that int an ffering fr ther peple?
A. What skills and talents d yu already have?
B. Stress can als keep peple frm being kind t thers.
C. Why are recipients less likely t appreciate a randm act f kindness?
D. But an act f kindness is unlikely t fail, and in sme instances it can create even mre kindness.
E. Peple wh perfrm a randm act f kindness tend t underestimate hw much the recipient will appreciate it.
F But researchers wh study kindness and friendship say they hpe the new findings strengthen the scientific case fr making these types f gestures mre ften.
IV. Summary Writing
51. Directins: Read the fllwing passage. Summarize the main idea and the main pint(s) f the passage in n mre than 60 wrds. Use yur wn wrds as far as pssible.
The risk f pre-schling
“Yung children learning t read is ne f the mst imprtant things primary educatin des. It’s fundamental t children making prgress in life,” says Dminic Wyse, a prfessr f primary educatin at University Cllege Lndn, in the UK. “While learning literacy is vital t childern, the way we teach it really matters.”
In a 2022 reprt, he states that English schl system’s intense fcus n phnics – a methd that invlves matching the sund f a spken wrd r letter, with individual written letters, thrugh a prcess called “sunding ut” – culd be failing sme children. A reasn fr this is that the tests used t assess that early learning may have little t d with the skills actually needed t read and enjy bks r ther meaningful texts. Fr example, the tests may ask pupils t “sund ut” and spell nnsense wrds, t prevent them frm simply guessing, r recgnising familiar wrds. Since nnsense wrds are nt meaningful language, children may find the task difficult and puzzling. It desn’t end up being meaningful, it ends up being memrising rather than understanding cntext.
Children wh attend intensive preschls d nt have higher academic abilities in later grades than thse wh did nt attend such preschls, several studies nw shw. Early educatin can hwever have a psitive impact n scial develpment – which in turn feeds int the likelihd f graduatin frm schl and university as well as being assciated with lwer crime rates. In shrt, attending preschl can have psitive effects n later achievement in life, but nt necessary n academic skills.
T much academic pressure may even cause prblems in the lng run. A study published in January 2022 suggested that thse wh attended a preschl with a strng academic emphasis, shwed lwer academic achievements a few years later, cmpared t thse wh had nt gained a place.

In 2020, OpenAI, a research lab in San Francisc, revealed a system called GPT-3. It is what artificial intelligence researchers call a neural(神经系统的) netwrk, after the web f neurns in the human brain. A neural netwrk is really a mathematical system that learns skills by lcating patterns in vast amunts f digital data. By analyzing thusands f cat phts, fr instance, it can learn t recgnize a cat. “We call it ‘artificial intelligence,’ but a better name might be ‘finding statistical patterns frm large data sets’,” said Dr. Gpnik, the Berkeley prfessr.
Mre recently, researchers at places like Ggle and OpenAI began building neural netwrks that learned frm enrmus amunts f prse, including digital bks and Wikipedia articles by the thusands. GPT-3 is an example. As it analyzed all that digital text, it built what yu might call a mathematical map f human language — mre than 175 billin data pints that describe hw we piece wrds tgether. Using this map, it can perfrm many different tasks, like penning speeches, writing cmputer prgrams and having a cnversatin.
But there are limitatins. If yu ask GPT-3 fr 10 speeches in the vice f Mark Twain, it might give yu five that sund remarkably like the famus writer — and five thers that cme nwhere clse. Cmputer prgrammers use the technlgy t create small snippets(一小段) f cde they can slip int larger prgrams, but mre ften than nt they have t edit and adjust whatever it gives them.
Still, Dr. Gpnik described this kind f system as intelligent. “It is nt intelligent in the way humans are. It is like an unfamiliar frm f intelligence,” he said. “But it still cunts.”
Dr. Gpnik and many thers in the field are cnfident that they are n a path t building a machine that can d anything the human brain can d. This cnfidence shines thrugh when they discuss current technlgies. He admits that sme A.I. researchers “struggle t differentiate between reality and science fictin.” But he believes these researchers still serve a valuable rle. “They help us dream f the full range f the pssible,” he said.

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了由旧金山的一个实验室OpenAI所展示的一个名为GPT-3的系统。这个系统被人工智能研究人员称为神经网络,它可以通过定位大量数字数据中的模式来学习技能。对此系统,不同的人发表了不同的看法。
【43题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“By analyzing thusands f cat phts, fr instance, it can learn t recgnize a cat.(通过分析数千张猫的照片,它可以学会识别猫。)”和文章第二段“GPT-3 is an example. As it analyzed all that digital text, it built what yu might call a mathematical map f human language — mre than 175 billin data pints that describe hw we piece wrds tgether. Using this map, it can perfrm many different tasks, like penning speeches, writing cmputer prgrams and having a cnversatin.(GPT-3就是一个例子。当它分析所有的数字文本时,它就构建了一个你可以称之为人类语言的数学地图——超过1750亿个数据点,这些数据点描述了我们如何将单词组合在一起。使用这张地图,它可以执行许多不同的任务,如撰写演讲稿、编写计算机程序和进行对话。)”可知,GPT-3可以识别图像并使用人类语言。故选C。
【44题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段第一句“But there are limitatins.(但也有局限性。)”和“Cmputer prgrammers use the technlgy t create small snippets f cde they can slip int larger prgrams, but mre ften than nt they have t edit and adjust whatever it gives them.(计算机程序员使用这项技术来创建可以将其插入到更大的程序中的代码的小片段,但更多的时候,他们必须编辑和调整它给他们的任何内容。)”可知,GPT-3还是有局限性的,它创建的代码并不是完全正确的,还需要程序员亲自编辑和调整,这说明GPT-3远非完美。故选A。
【45题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Still, Dr. Gpnik described this kind f system as intelligent. ‘It is nt intelligent in the way humans are. It is like an unfamiliar frm f intelligence,’ he said. ‘But it still cunts.’(尽管如此,Gpnik博士还是将这种系统描述为智能系统。他说:“它不像人类那样聪明。它就像一种不熟悉的智力形式。但它仍然很重要。”)”和第五段“Dr. Gpnik and many thers in the field are cnfident that they are n a path t building a machine that can d anything the human brain can d. This cnfidence shines thrugh when they discuss current technlgies. (戈普尼克博士和该领域的许多其他人都相信,他们正在走上一条制造机器的道路,这种机器可以做人类大脑所能做的任何事情。当他们讨论当前的技术时,这种信心就会油然而生。)”可知,Dr. Gpnik高度评价了GPT-3这个系统,因为它在人工智能研究中发挥着重要作用。故选C。
【46题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Perhaps they d. But fr the rest f us, these dreams can get in the way f the issues that deserve ur attentin.(也许是这样。但对我们其他人来说,这些梦想可能会阻碍值得我们关注的问题。)”可知,在作者看来,尽管人工智能可以帮人类实现很多梦想,但同时也可能会阻碍那些值得我们关注的问题,所以对此持反对意见。故选B。

【答案】47. F 48. B 49. D 50. A
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述做善事可以帮助降低压力水平,以及如何做善事。
【47题详解】
上文“The idea that kindness can bst happiness is hardly new. Studies have shwn that prscial behavir — basically, vluntarily helping thers — can help lwer peple’s daily stress levels, and that simple acts f cnnectin, like texting a friend, mean mre than many f us realize.(善良可以提升幸福感的观点并不新鲜。研究表明,亲社会行为——基本上是自愿帮助他人——可以帮助人们降低日常压力水平,而简单的联系行为,比如给朋友发短信,比我们许多人意识到的更有意义。)”,而F选项“但研究善意和友谊的研究人员表示,他们希望这些新发现能够为更多地做出这类行为提供科学依据。”中的“the new findings”呼应上文,并且“these types f gestures”也对应上文的“texting a friend”等,符合题意,故选F。
【48题详解】
根据下文“They may questin whether their gesture r gift will be misinterpreted, r whether it will make the recipient feel pressured t pay it back.(他们可能会质疑自己的举动或礼物是否会被误解,或者是否会让收礼者感到有回报的压力。)”可知人们害怕自己的善意被误解,因此推断上文应该是和做善事也是有压力的相关内容,所以B选项“压力也可以阻止人们对别人友善。”符合语境,故选B。
【49题详解】
根据下文“Jennifer Oldham, wh lst her 9-year-ld daughter Hallie in July, recently created a Facebk grup — Keeping Kindness fr Hallie — that encurages participants t engage in randm acts f kindness. Peple have bught grceries and dnated schl supplies in Hallie’s hnr. “It will help yur wn heart, maybe even mre than the recipients,” said Ms. Oldham. (珍妮弗·奥尔德姆在7月份失去了9岁的女儿哈莉,她最近在Facebk上创建了一个名为“为哈莉保持善良”的小组,鼓励参与者随意做一些善举。为了纪念哈莉,人们买了杂货,捐赠了学习用品。奥尔德姆女士说:“这对你自己的心脏有帮助,甚至可能比接受者更有帮助。”)”可知本段是关于做善事还是有好处的内容,D选项“但是,善意的行为不太可能失败,在某些情况下,它甚至可以创造更多的善意。”符合本段所举的事例,并且和上文构成转折关系,故选D。
【50题详解】
根据上文“It’s nt abut yu being like, ‘Oh man, nw I have t learn hw t bake ckies in rder t be nice’.( 这并不是说你会说,‘哦,天哪,现在我必须学会如何烤饼干才能变得漂亮。’)”以及下文“And hw can yu turn that int an ffering fr ther peple?(你怎么能把它变成对其他人的奉献呢?)”可知设空处说的是你现在有什么样的技能,并且能用它为别人提供帮助,所以A选项“你已经具备哪些技能和才能?”符合语境,承上启下,故选A。

The risk f pre-schling
“Yung children learning t read is ne f the mst imprtant things primary educatin des. It’s fundamental t children making prgress in life,” says Dminic Wyse, a prfessr f primary educatin at University Cllege Lndn, in the UK. “While learning literacy is vital t childern, the way we teach it really matters.”
In a 2022 reprt, he states that English schl system’s intense fcus n phnics – a methd that invlves matching the sund f a spken wrd r letter, with individual written letters, thrugh a prcess called “sunding ut” – culd be failing sme children. A reasn fr this is that the tests used t assess that early learning may have little t d with the skills actually needed t read and enjy bks r ther meaningful texts. Fr example, the tests may ask pupils t “sund ut” and spell nnsense wrds, t prevent them frm simply guessing, r recgnising familiar wrds. Since nnsense wrds are nt meaningful language, children may find the task difficult and puzzling. It desn’t end up being meaningful, it ends up being memrising rather than understanding cntext.
Children wh attend intensive preschls d nt have higher academic abilities in later grades than thse wh did nt attend such preschls, several studies nw shw. Early educatin can hwever have a psitive impact n scial develpment – which in turn feeds int the likelihd f graduatin frm schl and university as well as being assciated with lwer crime rates. In shrt, attending preschl can have psitive effects n later achievement in life, but nt necessary n academic skills.
T much academic pressure may even cause prblems in the lng run. A study published in January 2022 suggested that thse wh attended a preschl with a strng academic emphasis, shwed lwer academic achievements a few years later, cmpared t thse wh had nt gained a place.

Directins: Translate the fllwing sentences int English, using the wrds given in the brackets.
52. 这个问题至今已经困扰了我好几天。(puzzle) (汉译英)
【答案】This questin has been puzzling me fr a few days nw.
【详解】考查名词,动词,代词,副词,介词,短语和时态。表示“这个”应用代词this;表示“问题”应用名词questin;表示“困扰”应用动词puzzle;表示“我”应用代词宾格me;表示“好几天”应用介词短语fr a few days;表示“至今”应用副词nw;分析句子结构和意思可知,这句话描述的是过去的动作持续到现在并对现在有影响,所以谓语用现在完成进行时,主语是“这个问题”,助动词用has。故翻译为This questin has been puzzling me fr a few days nw.
53. 要竞争中立于不败之地,公司要不断创新。(survive) (汉译英)
【答案】In rder t survive the cmpetitin, a cmpany shuld keep innvating.
【详解】考查动词survive的用法、短语和名词。“要”可理解为“为了”,表目的,用in rder t表达;survive意为“生存、幸存、幸免于难”,“在竞争中立于不败之地”可译为survive the cmpetitin;表示“要在竞争中立于不败之地”应为in rder t survive the cmpetitin,在句中作目的状语;“公司”在此处表泛指,可用a cmpany;这里的“要”理解为“应该”,用shuld表示;“不断做某事”可用动词短语keep ding sth.;“创新”可译为innvate;“不断创新”即keep innvating;表示“公司要不断创新”应为a cmpany shuld keep innvating。故翻译为In rder t survive the cmpetitin, a cmpany shuld keep innvating.
54. 有些节食减肥十分有害,可能引发食物摄入量不足,而这是非常不健康的。(which) (汉译英)
【答案】Sme dieting is s harmful that peple might nt eat enugh fd, which can be quite unhealthy.
【详解】考查动词、名词、形容词和从句。根据中文句意可知,这里时态应用一般现在时。表示“有些节食减肥十分有害”应用句子Sme dieting is harmful;表示“可能引发食物摄入量不足”应用句子peple might nt eat enugh fd;而连接这两句应用结果状语从句连词;表示“是非常不健康的”应用非限制性定语从句which can be quite unhealthy。故翻译为Sme dieting is s harmful that peple might nt eat enugh fd, which can be quite unhealthy.
55. 我们也许都有无论如何努力都无法实现的梦想,但付出的努力一定不会白白浪费。(reach) (汉译英)
【答案】We may all have dreams that are ut f reach whatever effrts we make, but the effrts are sure t pay ff.
【详解】考查固定短语,定语从句和让步状语从句。“我们也许都有梦想”翻译为We may all have dreams,“无论如何努力都无法实现的”用that引导的定语从句,翻译为that are ut f reach whatever effrts we make,“但付出的努力一定不会白白浪费”翻译为but the effrts are sure t pay ff,因此整句话翻译为“We may all have dreams that are ut f reach whatever effrts we make, but the effrts are sure t pay ff”。故答案为We may all have dreams that are ut f reach whatever effrts we make, but the effrts are sure t pay ff.
