As a child, Cleary had truble learning t read. Even after she learned t lve
I didn’t want t read until my friends tld me abut a wizard called Harry. I didn’t like reading until I heard a lt f my friends reading Harry Ptter. I read it frm the first page t the last page at the age f 11. As Harry, Hermine and Rn grew up, I grew up, t. Harry Ptter shwed me that reading culd be enjyable. It changed

When she grew up, Cleary wrked in a library. One day, sme bys asked her, “Where are the bks abut kids like us?” Cleary realized there weren’t many bks abut cmmn kids, s she decided t write sme.

There’s big wrinkly material in yur head, weighing arund 1.3kg, which cntrls every single thing yu will d. It enables yu t think, learn, create and feel emtins, as well as cntrlling every blink, breath and heartbeat. This fantastic
rgan ( 器 官 ) is yur brain! It’s s amazing that famus scientist James D. Watsn nce called the brain “the mst cmplex (复杂的) thing we have ever discvered in ur universe” even with cmputers cnsidered.
Imagine this. Yur cat is in the kitchen. She’s
abut t step n the ht cker. Yu have nly secnds t act. Getting the infrmatin cming frm yur eyes, yur brain quickly decides when, where, and at what speed yu will need t run t stp her. Then it asks yur bdy t take actin. Yur timing is perfect, and yur cat is safe! N cmputer can cme clse t yur brain’s amazing ability t dwnlad, prcess, and react t s much infrmatin cming frm yur eyes, ears and ther sensry rgans. Cl!
Hw des yur brain manage t d that? A bee lands n yur bare ft. Eek! Sensry neurns (感觉神经元) in yur skin send this infrmatin t yur brain at a speed f mre than 240kmph (kilmeters per hur). Yur brain then uses mtr neurns (运动神经元) t transmit the message back t yur ft – t shake the bee ff quickly! Mtr neurns can send this message at mre than 320kmph. Ww!
Then hw des yur brain help yu t learn? Riding a bike seems impssible at first, but sn yu knw hw t d it. As yu practice, yur brain sends ‘bike riding’ messages alng pathways f neurns again and again, frming new cnnectins. In fact, the structure ( 结 构 ) f yur brain changes every time yu learn, as well as whenever yu have a new thught r memry! Nw that’s clever!
It’s well knwn that any exercise that makes yur heart beat faster – like running r playing a sprt – is great fr yur bdy and can even help imprve yur md. But scientists have recently learned that fr a perid f time after yu’ve exercised, yur bdy prduces a chemical that makes yur brain mre willing t learn. S, if yu have truble ding difficult hmewrk, g ut and run fr a while, then deal with the prblem again. Yu might discver that yu’re much mre able t slve it.
The writer used the example f cat in paragraph 2 t shw .
it’s difficult t keep yur cat safe at hme
yur brain is mre pwerful than cmputers
yu need t react really fast t dangerus situatin
yur brain wrks tgether with ther rgans
The wrd transmit in paragraph 3 prbably means “ ”.
A. cntrlB. sendC. changeD. balance
After reading the passage, we can knw .
supercmputer is the mst cmplex thing in the wrld
sensry neurns send message faster than mtr neurns
the structure f ur brain changes slwly as we practice
exercise like running makes us want t learn mre

Many kids say they dn’t like the taste f a grup f vegetables such as brccli (西兰花) and cabbage. Nw Australian scientists think there culd be a gd reasn fr thse s-called “picky” (挑剔的) eating habits f kids.
Scientists fund ut that if sme peple eat certain vegetables like brccli, their muth prduces bad smells. This can happen when the chemicals (化学物质) in the vegetables mix with a persn’s saliva (唾液). The mre f these smells a child’s muth makes, the less they like the taste f the vegetables. But why d sme peple’s muths make mre f these smells than ther peple’s muths?
T find ut, the team cllected saliva samples (样本) frm 98 pairs f parents and children. Every persn’s saliva has a different mixture f bacteria (细菌) in it. The researchers believe this decides hw much f the smells a persn prduced while eating the vegetables. Maybe ur picky eaters are simply thse wh have the mixture that increases smell f chemicals.
Sme scientists put sme cabbage pwder in the saliva f grwn-ups and kids. They fund ut that peple wh were nt family members prduced different bad smells. Even thugh parents and their children made similar smells, the parents didn’t think the vegetable tasted as bad as their kids. That’s because adults may have eaten them mre and are used t the taste.
Experts suggest many fd dislikes can make a change after trying fr many times. This means a picky eater may cme t enjy a fd they avid if they try it enugh times. Fr example, yur child hates cabbage. If yu ffer them cabbage enugh times, in different frms, they may finally cme t enjy it. What’s mre, children learn by bservatin. If they see yu eating healthy fds, they’ll be mre likely t see yu as a gd example. Hwever, watching yu eating lts f sda, snack fds, and dessert will make them wnder why they can’t d the same.
Accrding t Australian scientists, may make many kids dislike certain vegetables.
A. the taste f these vegetablesB. the names f these vegetables
C. the smells their muth makesD. the eating habits f these kids
The purpse f the study mentined in paragraph 3 is t .
discver the different mixture f bacteria in a persn’s saliva
explain why sme peple dislike the smell f sme vegetables
make sure sme parents and their children make similar smells
find ut why sme peple’s muths make mre f the smells
What can we learn frm the last paragraph?
Children will never change their eating habits.
Children shuld avid the fds they dislike.
Parents shuld set their children a gd example.
Parents need t change their children’s eating habits.
Which f the fllwing can be the best title fr the passage?
What Decides Children’s Certain Eating Habits?
Wh Can Change Children’s Dislikes f Vegetables?
Why Children Dislike Eating Certain Vegetables?
Hw t Help Children t Eat Mre Vegetables?

One day last mnth, Antny Aumann, a cllege prfessr in the United States, was grading hmewrk fr his curse. While he was reading the “best hmewrk in the class,” he suddenly realized smething might g wrng. Later, Aumann asked the student whether he did the hmewrk himself. The student shk his head. He admitted (承认) he used ChatGPT, a chatbt (聊天机器人) that is able t answer questins as well as write emails, pems and papers.
Since artificial intelligence (人工智能) lab “OpenAI” released (发布) ChatGPT last Nvember, the chatbt has enjyed huge ppularity. Students are using it t d
hmewrk. All ver the wrld, prfessrs like Aumann are replanning their curses t deal with this prblem. Sme have decided t include mre ral exams and handwritten papers. Tasks like “write five pages abut this r that” are nt ppular. Instead, prfessrs are designing questins that they hpe will be t clever fr chatbts. Besides, sme are asking students t write abut their wn lives.
Many schls, hwever, are unwilling t ban ( 禁 止 ) the use f ChatGPT cmpletely because they dn’t believe a ban wuld be useful. Rather than staying away frm them, students and teachers shuld learn t make gd use f them. The University at Buffal, fr example, has included a discussin f AI tls in its curses. The university wants t teach students abut being hnest. It als hpes t help students understand advantages and disadvantages f chatbts.
Sme students have started learning hw t use ChatGPT in a right way. Lizzie Shackney is a student at the University f Pennsylvania. She uses ChatGPT t quickly prduce a large number f ideas fr her hmewrk. She then thinks ver these ideas and decides what t include in her hmewrk and what nt t include. The student always writes her hmewrk herself instead f depending n ChatGPT cmpletely.
Did the student in paragraph 1 d the hmewrk himself?
Accrding t the article, what is ChatGPT?
When did OpenAI release ChatGPT?
Why is the University at Buffal having a discussin f AI tls in its curses?
Hw shuld students use ChatGPT?
