Britain became the wrld’s first majr ecnmy t quit cal pwer when it shut ff the Ratcliffe-n-Sar Pwer Plant this week. It was a milestne fr the cuntry which was the first natin in the wrld t pwer its ecnmy with the dirty fuel in the early 19th century.
The Rmans fund cal in western England as early as the third century and cal mining became a prfitable business in the 1600s acrss England, Sctland and Wales. Arund the turn f the 18th century, the cal-pwered steam engine was invented and used t pwer industry in Britain. In the early 19th century, a British engineer invented the cal-fired train which sped cmmerce acrss the cuntry. Then in 1882, Thmas Edisn’s cmpany pened the first cal-fired pwer plant in Lndn. By the 1950s, British cal cnsumptin peaked and abut 96% f its electricity came frm burning it. But the pllutin became s serius that the wrd “smg” was cined. In the s-called Great Smg f 1952, at least 4,000 peple died within fur days in Lndn.
Since then Britain has started t seek cleaner energy. In the 1960s, it discvered natural gas in the Nrth Sea. In 2023, abut a third f its electricity came frm gas. In recent decades, Britain has als invested massively in renewable energy. It is nw the wrld’s secnd-largest ffshre wind market, after China. In 2023, ffshre wind generated 17% f the natin’s electricity.
At the same time, Britain has tightened the cntrl n air pllutin and greenhuse gas emissins. “In the early 2000s, the British gvernment was writing the wrld’s first set f laws n climate change,” recalls Michael Lewis, CEO f the Ratcliffe-n-Sar Pwer Plant. “Thse laws banned new cal statins frm being built, and taxed cal plants fr their pllutin. Such measures have made burning cal increasingly unecnmical.”
Lking ahead, Britain aims t quit natural gas by 2030, and cut CO2 emissins entirely by 2050.
24. Why is the Great Smg mentined in paragraph 2?
A. T shw the side effects f burning cal.
B. T tell the risks f cal mining.
C. T explain a newly cined wrd.
D. T criticize the first pwer plant in Lndn.
25. What is the third paragraph mainly abut?
A. Britain’s ptential in emissin cuts.
B. Britain’s heavy reliance n natural gas.
C. Britain’s strength at the ffshre wind market.
D. Britain’s effrts t replace the dirty cal.
26. The Ratcliffe-n-Sar Pwer Plant is clsed dwn prbably due t ________.
A. a newly passed lawB. the lack f new cal statins
C. the increasing peratin cstsD. a shrtage f cal
27. When des Britain plan t abandn natural gas?
A. By 2035.B. By 2030.C. By 2045.D. By 2050.

When Inside Higher Educatin recently interviewed cllege students abut their reading. Ava Wherley, a bilgy majr, cmplained, “Academic texts usually use extremely cmplex language, which makes them harder t read. I have t rely n shrt vides fr cmprehensin.”
But Wherley is nt, as she believes, a visual learner. Instead, she’s just a struggling reader with a fluency at a middle-schl reading level. In this respect, Wherley has plenty f cmpany. Accrding t the study, millins f cllege students in the US have t rely n vides r AI fr their reading nwadays, largely because they struggle with reading cmprehensin beynd a basic level.
The interviewers have further revealed that students struggle with reading mainly because teachers have reduced the amunt and cmplexity f students’ reading materials in primary and secndary grades. They have fund that mst teachers in secndary educatin usually assign shrt reading passages. And, in the few classes where students read bks, they usually receive summaries, which “just ruins the whle stry,” as Wherley prtested.
“Hwever, when kids read entire nvels withut ntes r summaries, they discver the pleasures f reading. Such kind f reading gives even avidant readers the enhanced vcabulary they need t becme better readers,” the interviewers write in their reprt.
Anther majr finding frm the research is that reading frequency accunts fr 13% f the variatin between strng and weak readers in elementary grades, a difference that climbs t 30% in high schl and 34% in cllege students. Mrever, as the study has revealed, students wh read entire bks in their leisure time enjy the mst significant benefits t their reading cmprehensin.
“Despite these significant benefits, nly 14 percent f the students reprted reading in their leisure time,” the reprt cncludes. “The result perfectly illustrates the Matthew Effect: the mre they avid reading, the harder they’ll find reading. In ther wrds, students may be caught in a vicius (恶性的) cycle that ruins their success in cllege, the wrkplace, and life, including their ability t understand a cmplex argument r make an infrmed decisin.”
28. Why des Ava Wherley turn t shrt vides?
A. The reading materials are bring.
B. The academic texts are t cmplex.
C. She fails t reach the required reading fluency.
D. She is a student with learning disabilities.
29. What might the researchers advise teachers t d in secndary educatin?
A. Encurage students t read entire bks.
B. Ask students t read ntes r summaries.
C. Help weak readers learn the new wrds first.
D. Give struggling students shrt reading passages.
30. What can be inferred frm the last paragraph?
A. Students shuld be given mre leisure time.
B. Avidant students need mre encuragement.
C. American students are happy with their reading skills.
D. Reading fluency is critical fr students’ success.
31. What is the authr’s main purpse in writing the text?
A. T find ut the rt cause f reading prblems.
B. T intrduce the findings f a recent survey.
C. T review a newly published educatinal reprt.
D. T expse the prblems in the US higher educatin.

It’s nt just yu. A lt f peple think that the quality f results frm traditinal search engines is getting wrse. Nw, the rise f AI search engines may lead t different and perhaps better ways t lk up infrmatin if they are used prperly.
Rather than typing in a string f keywrds, AI searches shuld be cnversatinal — fr example, “What’s the average temperature in Lndn fr the secnd half f February?” r “Where are sme gd places t travel in Eurpe this summer?” If yu’re nt satisfied with an answer, ask fllw-up questins t zer in n the infrmatin needed. Sme even ffer users related fllw-up questins t get the best answer.
Unlike traditinal search results that thrw up a list f links, AI search engines prduce a readable summary f the infrmatin, smetimes with a few key links as ftntes. Of curse, the answers vary — smetimes widely — depending n the site. Answers frm Phind.cm are amng the mst readable and are cnsistently prvided in a narrative frm.
Althugh the AI search results seem like they’re written by a very cmpetent human, they’re nt always crrect. The phenmenn is called “hallucinatin”. Hallucinatins ccur frequently since these AI systems scan huge amunts f infrmatin taken frm dubtful surces and then use algrithms (算法) t cme up with well-edited answers. Sme AI search engines disclse hw their algrithms have been trained n. Others prvide few r n details.
Therefre, the best advice is t try mre than ne AI search engine and cmpare the results. And always duble check surces as we shuld d with the traditinal search engines. Fr example, at ne pint, Km, ne f the best AI search engines, insisted that Canada’s ppulatin in 1991 was abut 1 millin peple. It turned ut that the figure came frm a Wikipedia page fr the cuntry’s native ppulatin.
32. What des the phrase “zer in n” underlined in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Get rid f.B. Narrw dwn t.C. Make up with.D. Take cntrl f.
33. Why des the “hallucinatin” phenmenn happen?
A. The infrmatin may be taken frm unreliable surces.
B. Different algrithms may use different training methds.
C. The training prcesses remain secret t the general public.
D. Sme f the algrithms are designed by unqualified engineers.
34. What are we recmmended t d with the AI search results?
A. Test them at different traditinal sites.
B. See whether they are well-edited r nt.
C. Check them carefully at the Wikipedia page.
D. Cmpare them with results frm ther AI sites.
35. What can be a suitable title fr the text?
A. Where t Find the Best AI Search Engine?
B. Limitatins f Traditinal Search Engines
C. Hw t Use AI Search Engines Prperly?
D. Differences Amng the AI Search Engines
