Humans feed thusands f sngs t AI (人工智能). And it is able t analyse the basic infrmatin and recgnize patterns that can be used t create riginal music. Such AI-created music is similar t thse that any musician might cmpse.
Recently, an AI-pwered system, the Flw Machines, has released a sng Daddy’s Car. This system is able t analyse the cmpsers’ riginal ideas and cme up with mre ideas t assist them in cmpsing. The system tries t cmbine the human mind with AI.
Anther great inventin is Jukedeck, which wrks very easily. In rder t create a new piece, the user just needs t select items like the desired music style (flk, rck, etc.) and the md (sad r happy). After a few secnds, AI prvides a piece f music fr the user t dwnlad. Each user can create music tailred t his r her interest.
Sme musicians use AI t achieve what they culd nt d n their wn. Fr example, Yacht, an American pp grup, has used AI t break ut f their cmfrt zne and try t create smething different frm their previus sngs. Sn they have their new album, which cntains 10 sngs, all f which are very ppular.
The develpment f AI technlgy als cmes with sme cncerns. Sme human cmpsers fear that their wrk might be replaced by a machine. Sme thers are wrried abut music itself and the music industry, as AI is nw able t create music mre and mre similar t human-cmpsed music.
Faced with this challenge, n ne hand, human musicians need t remain creative; n the ther hand, they shuld understand hw t use these new tls t explre new frntiers. Perhaps the future rle f the human musicians will be t fcus n emtins, leaving the machines t take care f ther prcedures.

A. Its prgress in replacing humans.B. Its ability in music cmpsing.
C. Its influence n human emtins.D. Its fcus n changing human mind.
9. Why culd Yacht create the ppular new album?
A. Because they stuck t their frmer music style.
B. Because they went beynd themselves with AI.
C. Because they put in mre than ten riginal sngs.
D. Because they insisted n cmpsing by themselves.
10. What is the last paragraph mainly abut?
A. Prblems abut AI cmpsing.B. Limitatins f AI technlgy.
C. Challenges fr human cmpsers.D. Suggestins t human musicians.
11. Which wrd best describes the authr’s attitude tward AI technlgy?
A. Objective.B. Dubtful.C. UncaringD. Cnfused.

Have yu ever wndered why yu might be a little taller than yur friends r family? Well, scientists believe the mystery f why humans are grwing taller and reaching puberty (青春期) earlier is due t smething in the brain.
We already knw that better nutritin leads t greater height as humans have been grwing taller n the whle in recent centuries. Better nutritin als causes peple t reach maturity faster. Genes (基因) als play a rle in hw tall we becme and we all grw and lk accrding t the cdes in ur DNA. A lack f nutritin makes it harder fr us t reach the full ptential f ur wn genes.
Accrding t the University f Maryland, ur bdy requires a certain amunt f energy t make us grw. But a new study suggests that a brain receptr (感受器) culd be respnsible fr ur grwth. The study shwed that the brain receptr MC3R is respnsible fr signals frm fd reaching a part f the brain called the hypthalamus (下丘脑). The hypthalamus is respnsible fr keeping things in check like bdy temperature and adjusting appetite and weight.
MC3R’s nt wrking prperly tends t mean that peple are shrter and start puberty much later. Prfessr Sir Stephen O’ Rahilly, ne f the authrs f the study, said, “It tells the bdy we’re great here and that we’ve gt lts f fd, s grw quickly and have puberty sn.”
There is a lt abut the brain we still dn’t knw. But this research culd lead t further develpment f drugs fr children with delayed grwth and puberty starting much later. Mre understanding f the receptr wn’t mean that we can make urselves taller. That all still depends n genes, but it culd help peple with lng-lasting illnesses, wh need t build up muscle.
12. What can we learn frm the secnd paragraph?
A. Genes lead t faster maturity.B. Nutritin determines a persn’s height.
C. Imprper nutritin changes ne’s genes.D. Better nutritin is imprtant t grwing taller.
13. Hw des MC3R wrk t get yu taller accrding t the new study?
A. By taking in a large amunt f nutritin itself.
B. By having us check bdy temperatures regularly.
C. By helping us cntrl ur appetite t lse weight.
D. By sending signals t inspire us t have mre nutritin.
14. What will the new finding mst prbably cntribute t?
A. Finding ways t put ff kid’s puberty.
B. Treating patients with lng-lasting illness.
C. Develping medicine fr kids with delayed grwth.
D. Finding scientific exercise t get ur muscle strnger.
15. Which f the fllwing is a suitable title fr the text?
A. Why Are Sme Peple Shrter? Genes Are t Blame
B. Why Are Sme Peple Shrter? Nutritin Is t Blame
C. Why Are Sme Peple Taller? The Key Is in Our Brains
D. Why Are Sme Peple Taller? The Key Is in Our Appetite

I lked at her, and I was ashamed. My mm is nthing extrardinary, yet at that mment she std ut because she was just s plain.
I didn’t want t be seen with her, althugh there was n ne imprtant arund t see me anyway. Telling her I’d meet her at the clthes utlet arund the crner, I hurried away t the bathrm.

Have yu ever wndered why yu might be a little taller than yur friends r family? Well, scientists believe the mystery f why humans are grwing taller and reaching puberty (青春期) earlier is due t smething in the brain.
We already knw that better nutritin leads t greater height as humans have been grwing taller n the whle in recent centuries. Better nutritin als causes peple t reach maturity faster. Genes (基因) als play a rle in hw tall we becme and we all grw and lk accrding t the cdes in ur DNA. A lack f nutritin makes it harder fr us t reach the full ptential f ur wn genes.
Accrding t the University f Maryland, ur bdy requires a certain amunt f energy t make us grw. But a new study suggests that a brain receptr (感受器) culd be respnsible fr ur grwth. The study shwed that the brain receptr MC3R is respnsible fr signals frm fd reaching a part f the brain called the hypthalamus (下丘脑). The hypthalamus is respnsible fr keeping things in check like bdy temperature and adjusting appetite and weight.
MC3R’s nt wrking prperly tends t mean that peple are shrter and start puberty much later. Prfessr Sir Stephen O’ Rahilly, ne f the authrs f the study, said, “It tells the bdy we’re great here and that we’ve gt lts f fd, s grw quickly and have puberty sn.”
There is a lt abut the brain we still dn’t knw. But this research culd lead t further develpment f drugs fr children with delayed grwth and puberty starting much later. Mre understanding f the receptr wn’t mean that we can make urselves taller. That all still depends n genes, but it culd help peple with lng-lasting illnesses, wh need t build up muscle.
12. What can we learn frm the secnd paragraph?
A. Genes lead t faster maturity.B. Nutritin determines a persn’s height.
C. Imprper nutritin changes ne’s genes.D. Better nutritin is imprtant t grwing taller.
13. Hw des MC3R wrk t get yu taller accrding t the new study?
A. By taking in a large amunt f nutritin itself.
B. By having us check bdy temperatures regularly.
C. By helping us cntrl ur appetite t lse weight.
D. By sending signals t inspire us t have mre nutritin.
14. What will the new finding mst prbably cntribute t?
A. Finding ways t put ff kid’s puberty.
B. Treating patients with lng-lasting illness.
C. Develping medicine fr kids with delayed grwth.
D. Finding scientific exercise t get ur muscle strnger.
15. Which f the fllwing is a suitable title fr the text?
A. Why Are Sme Peple Shrter? Genes Are t Blame
B. Why Are Sme Peple Shrter? Nutritin Is t Blame
C. Why Are Sme Peple Taller? The Key Is in Our Brains

考查动词时态。句意：这是她第一次离开祖国，因为她想学习国际商务，提高英语水平。这里考查“It was the first time that + 主语 + had dne sth.” ，是固定句型，意为“这是某人第一次做某事”，所以此处应用过去完成时，且主语she与leave为主动关系。故填had left。
【37题详解】
考查副词。句意：她必须习惯生活在一个全新的环境中，在这个环境中，她必须学习几乎所有的东西，比如向路人问路。此处用副词cmpletely修饰形容词new，作状语。故填cmpletely。
【38题详解】
考查名词复数。句意：她必须习惯生活在一个全新的环境中，在这个环境中，她必须学习几乎所有的东西，比如向路人问路。passer-by是可数名词，此处表示泛指，应用复数形式passers-by。故填passers-by。
【39题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：她选择住在一个寄宿家庭，在那里他们总是帮助她适应新生活。此处是“介词 + 关系代词”引导的定语从句，先行词是hst family，指物，在从句中作介词in的宾语，应用关系代词which。故填which。
【40题详解】
考查名词。句意：她选择住在一个寄宿家庭，在那里他们总是帮助她适应新生活。形容词性物主代词her后接名词，adapt的名词形式是adaptatin，意为“适应”，为不可数名词。故填adaptatin。
【41题详解】
考查冠词。句意：这对她来说是一种极大的安慰。cmfrt在此处意为 “令人安慰的事”，是可数名词，此处表示泛指，应用不定冠词，且cmfrt为辅音音素开头的单词。故填a。
【42题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：对于她的第一篇文章，导师说，她不能引用别人说的话而不承认他们，并鼓励她表达自己的想法。这里考查encurage sb. t d sth. ，是固定搭配，意为“鼓励某人做某事”。故填 t express。

【45题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：参与社交活动，她充当着文化使者，在两种文化之间架起了一座桥梁。此处为非谓语动词作状语，invlve与逻辑主语she之间为被动关系，所以此处使用过去分词形式作状语，且句首时首字母应大写。故填Invlved。

I was with my mm. Mm is shrt and skinny. It is easy t verlk her in a crwd simply because she is nthing extrardinary t see.
On that day, we wndered in the mall, peeking at fancy shps in fleeting (短暂的) glances, because we bth knew we wuldn’t be buying much, like always.
I remember I was lking up at the peple we passed as we walked. Ladies wre 5-inch heels that click imprtantly n the flr and bright clthing. Men strde by smelling f sharp clgne (古龙香水), faces clear f wrinkles - wiped away with expensive creams.
An uneasy feeling started t settle in my chest. It gt mre unbearable with every secnd until I culd deny it n lnger: I was ashamed f my mther.
I culd see the heavy lines arund mm’s eyes and the muth, deep int her skin withut luxurius ltins t ease them away. She wre cheap, ragged clthes. Her eyes were tired frm wrking lng hurs t make ends meet and her hair t gray fr her age.
I lked at her, and I was ashamed. My mm is nthing extrardinary, yet at that mment she std ut because she was just s plain.
I didn’t want t be seen with her, althugh there was n ne imprtant arund t see me anyway. Telling her I’d meet her at the clthes utlet arund the crner, I hurried away t the bathrm. When I finally made my way t the utlet, I fund that mm wasn’t there. “She must be in sme secnd-hand stre.” I thught t myself.
But I culdn’t have been mre wrng. Mm was standing in the middle f a high-end stre, hlding a sweater that lked much t expensive. “This will lk gd n yu. D yu want it?”

Hlding Mm’srugh but warm hands tightly, I was determined secretly t buy a delicate sweater fr her. Mm is mre than extrardinary in my eyes.

【导语】文章以人物心理活动为线索,讲述了某个周六，作者和妈妈逛街，周围打扮时髦，精致的路人与平淡无奇，穿着破旧但却把最好的东西都给了作者的妈妈形成强烈的对比，作者觉得十分尴尬与害臊。但是当妈妈拿着一件昂贵的毛衣问我要不要时，作者突然明白，妈妈这样全是为了自己，明白了妈妈对自己的付出而十分感动。
【详解】1. 段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“太贵了。我几乎同意了，漫不经心，不假思索。”可知，第一段可描写作者想要同意时，发现妈妈破旧的衣服与精美的毛衣的对比，明白母亲全是为了自己付出，并感受到无私伟大的母爱而激动不已的态度的转变。
②由第二段首句内容“我不再为她感到羞愧，而是为我自己感到羞愧。“你想要吗?”我妈妈重复道。“不,谢谢。””可知，第二段可描写作者觉得母亲对自己的付出不值得，并下决心要报答母亲。
