Sn after, the little girl was sent hme because the dctrs felt there was nthing else they culd d fr her. My dad als left the
children’s hspital fr a little while because he became ill. Sme time later after my dad had recvered and returned t wrk, in came
the little girl wh had been paralyzed and nly this time she was walking. She ran straight ver t my dad and hugged him really tight.
She gave him a picture she had dne using her hands. At the bttm it read: “Thank yu fr helping me walk.”

My dad wuld cry every time he tld us this stry and s wuld we. He wuld say smetimes lve is mre pwerful than dctr, and
my dad—wh died just a few mnths after the little girl gave the picture—lved every single child in that hspital.

3. We are currently experiencing an unprecedented era in the realm f space explratin, marked by a surge in the retrieval and
study f celestial samples. This “glden age” is characterized by the active effrts f glbal space agencies t gather and analyze
material frm varius celestial bdies, including asterids, mns, and planets.
China’s Chang’e 5 missin stands ut as a recent triumph in this endeavr. On December 17, the Chang’e 5 lunar prbe
successfully cncluded its jurney by landing in the Inner Mnglia autnmus regin, as reprted by China Daily. This missin, the
first lunar sample-return endeavr since 1976, managed t secure an impressive 1,713 grams f lunar rcks and dust, utilizing advanced
drilling technlgy and rbtic arms.
Similarly, n December 6, Japan’s Hayabusa 2 prbe achieved a remarkable feat by returning a capsule filled with samples frm the
asterid Ryugu. This marks the secnd instance f asterid samples being cllected and brught back t Earth, fllwing the riginal
Hayabusa spacecraft’s accmplishment in 2010.
The mmentum in this field is set t cntinue, with NASA’s OSIRIS-REx spacecraft anticipated t return t Earth in 2023, carrying
samples frm the asterid Bennu. Additinally, Russia’s Lunar-25 missin is pised t launch in 2021, with the bjective f cllecting
lunar samples.
The significance f these sample-return missins cannt be verstated. They hld the ptential t shed light n lng-standing
mysteries that have baffled scientists, such as the rigins f life and the emergence f water n Earth. As Ann Nguyen, a NASA planetary
scientist, emphasizes, “I cannt emphasize enugh hw valuable return samples are fr increasing ur understanding f the rigin and
evlutin f ur slar system and ur place in the universe, and hw we came t be.”
Upn arrival n Earth, these celestial samples underg meticulus analysis using sphisticated instruments. These analyses can yield
mre detailed insights than what can be gleaned frm phtgraphs r rbtic rvers alne.
In the case f the Chang’e 5 lunar samples, scientists will emply a variety f analytical methds, tests, and experiments t
determine the cmpsitin, structure, and physical prperties f the lunar material. This cmprehensive understanding will cntribute t
a deeper cmprehensin f the mn’s histry and, by extensin, the brader histry f ur slar system.
Thugh we have nly begun t explre the surface f these celestial bdies, bth in a literal and figurative sense, the knwledge we
have gained is already substantial. The jurney f discvery is far frm ver, with a wealth f mysteries still waiting t be unveiled.
【小题1】What d we knw abut the Chang’e 5 lunar prbe?

4. An artificial cgnitive system pssesses the capability t translate linguistic expressins and syntactical structures frm cerebral
functinal patterns with an impressive degree f precisin. By utilizing a brief tempral windw f cerebral functinal data, the AI can
deduce the auditry cntent that an individual has perceived. The system is capable f psitining the accurate respnse within its
tpmst 10 ptential utcmes, as determined in a fundatinal research endeavr.
This AI has been engineered at Meta, the crprate entity that encmpasses Facebk, and it hlds the ptential t ultimately assist
a vast number f individuals glbally wh are incapacitated frm engaging in verbal cmmunicatin, textual input, r gestural
cnveyance.
The majrity f current technlgical slutins designed t facilitate cmmunicatin fr such individuals necessitate invasive
neursurgical prcedures t implant electrdes. Hwever, this innvative methdlgy “culd ffer a viable alternative t assist patients
grappling with cmmunicative impediments, circumventing the necessity fr surgical interventins,” remarks neurscientist Jean-Rémi
King, a researcher within the Meta AI divisin.
King and his fellw researchers have cnditined a cmputatinal apparatus, als referred t as a linguistic mdel, t identify wrds
and sentences acrss 56,000 hurs f vcalized recrds frm a spectrum f 53 languages. The research cllective then applied an AI
equipped with this linguistic mdel t data repsitries frm fur distinct institutins that encmpassed cerebral functinal data frm
169 cnsenting vlunteers. Within these repsitries, participants were expsed t an array f narratives and sentences, while their
cerebral activity was mnitred via magnetencephalgraphy (MEG).
Subsequently, emplying a cmputatinal technique that accunts fr the anatmical variances amng individual brains, the team
endeavred t decipher the auditry cntent that the participants had apprehended, utilizing merely three secnds f cerebral
functinal data frm each individual. The team directed the AI t crrelate the phnetic elements frm the narrative recrdings with the
cerebral functinal patterns that the AI had deduced t be indicative f the auditry stimuli that the subjects were receiving. It then
prgnsticated the auditry cntent that the individual might have been expsed t during that brief interval, cnsidering ver 1,000
ptential ptins. Utilizing MEG, the crrect respnse was cnsistently included within the AI’s tp 10 cnjectures, as ascertained by
the researchers.
“The current research is fcused n the decding f auditry speech recgnitin, nt its generatin,” King cncurs, “Althugh the
generatin f speech is the ultimate aspiratin, at present, we are still cnsiderably distant frm achieving this bjective.”
【小题1】What is the main advantage f the new technlgy?
A．Aviding dangerus peratins n patients.
B．Helping patients with cmmunicatin prblems.
C．Prviding a path t cmmunicate with thers.
D．Freeing patients frm risky brain peratins.
【小题2】Whm might be the AI be beneficial t?
A．Peple unable t cmmunicate nrmally.
B．Peple wh canˈt mve arund.
C．Peple wh are uncnscius.
D．Peple unable t eat.
【小题3】What des Jean-Rémi King think f the new study?
A．Disappinting.
B．Surprising.
C．Prmising.
D．Exciting.
【小题4】What is the best title fr the text?
A．A New Study n Artificial Intelligence

B．The Applicatin f MEG Technlgy
C．A New Way t Decde Speech
D．A Slutin t Cmmunicatin Prblems

It sunds like yu’re wrking n a stry r a persnal anecdte abut preparing fr a hliday card pht. The situatin yu’ve
described is quite cmmn and relatable, especially during the hliday seasn when many peple try t make everything perfect fr
their cards. Here’s a pssible cntinuatin f yur stry, filling in sme details and bringing it t a cnclusin:
The clck was ticking, and the pressure was munting. My husband, with his calm demeanr and steady hands, tk ver the
situatin. He had a knack fr these things, and I had t admit, I was ut f ptins.
As I sipped my tea dwnstairs, I culd hear the sft sunds f reassuring wrds and the gentle snips f the scissrs. My lder sn,
always the helpful ne, was by his side, ready t assist in any way he culd.
When they finally called me upstairs, I was met with a sight that made my heart swell. My yunger sn’s hair was n lnger a
disaster; it was nw neatly trimmed, and he lked abslutely adrable. My husband had wrked his magic, and my lder sn had
managed t keep ur little ne entertained and calm thrughut the prcess.
The next mrning, the phtgrapher arrived, and the whle family was ready. We were all in ur new white pl shirts, and my
yunger sn's hair lked better than ever. The phtgrapher captured ur smiles and laughter, and fr a mment, we were all just
happy t be tgether.
The hliday cards turned ut better than I culd have imagined. The picture was perfect—nt because f the matching shirts r the
prfessinal haircut, but because it truly captured ur family’s spirit. We sent them ut, a little later than I had initially planned, but they
were filled with lve and the jy f ur real, imperfectly perfect family.
In the end, I learned a valuable lessn: smetimes, letting g f the need fr perfectin and embracing the help f lved nes can
lead t the mst beautiful results. Our hliday cards were a testament t that, and they were cherished by ur friends and family.
Remember, this is just a creative cntinuatin based n the details yu’ve prvided. If yu have a specific directin yu’d like the
stry t g r if yu need help with a particular part f the narrative, feel free t let me knw!
