Federica Brignne tilted her head tward the sky and watched the Italian Air Frce’s flying unit leave behind a trail f her cuntry’s clrs abve the snwy peaks f the Dlmites. Mments later, with Italy’s president watching, she stepped nt the stage and received a gld medal. It was a fairytale ending t her super-G victry at the Milan Crtina Olympics — ne she herself culd hardly believe.
Just ten mnths earlier, the Italian skier had brken multiple bnes in her left leg in a terrible crash. She culd nt walk fr three mnths and needed tw peratins. A metal plate and seven r eight screws (螺丝) still hld her leg tgether. “I didn’t knw if I wuld be able t walk again. Or ever ski again,” she said. “Fr me, it was just special t be here.”
Yet n race day, Brignne delivered a near-perfect run. She finished 0.41 secnds ahead f the silver medalist — a huge gap in Alpine skiing. Many cmpetitrs struggled with the difficult curse, made even harder by fg and flat light, but the 35-year-ld “Tiger,” knwn fr her fighting spirit and the animal design n her helmet (头盔), was unstppable.
This victry gave Brignne the ne big prize missing frm her lng career: an Olympic gld medal. She became the ldest wman t win an Alpine skiing gld at the Olympics. It was her furth Olympic medal, tying the recrd fr the mst by an Italian wman skier.
Her jurney back was anything but easy. After her crash in April, she did nt cmpete again until late January — just weeks befre the Olympics. The team dctr said that fr a nrmal persn, recvery wuld still be ging n. “But it’s the champin that makes the difference.”
During the pening ceremny, Brignne was still in pain. She asked a teammate t carry her n his shulders s she culd wave the Italian flag. That mment nw feels like part f a stry t perfect t be true — except that it was. As her friend Lindsey Vnn wrte nline, “What an incredible cmeback!”
4. What des paragraph 2 mainly talk abut?
A. Brignne’s serius injury.B. The hard Olympic training.
C. The dctr’s recvery advice.D. The steps f the peratin.

In January, OpenAI began t intrduce a new feature t ChatGPT in certain cuntries. This feature, called ChatGPT Health, is designed fr users t uplad their medical data and ask fr health advice.
Hwever, a new study has fund that ChatGPT Health regularly fails t recgnize the need fr emergency medical care, raising serius safety cncerns. The study, which has been published in Nature Medicine, fund that in ver half f the cases that were real emergencies, ChatGPT underestimated the seriusness and urgency f the situatin.
The researchers created 60 realistic medical scenaris (场景) that ranged frm mild health prblems t medical emergencies. They als had dctrs lk at each scenari and decide what type f medical care was needed in each case. The researchers then asked ChatGPT Health fr advice fr each f these scenaris. They varied the patients’ persnal details and ther factrs, such as cmments frm family r friends, each time they asked. Altgether, the researchers received 960 respnses.
In 52% f cases where peple shuld have been advised t g t the hspital immediately, ChatGPT Health suggested staying at hme r making a regular medical appintment. On the ther hand, in almst 65% f nn-urgent cases, ChatGPT Health advised peple t get immediate medical care. ChatGPT Health was als 12 times mre likely t take symptms (症状) less seriusly and suggest less urgent care if infrmed that a friend r family member thught the situatin wasn’t serius.
Respnding t the findings, sme health experts have warned that using ChatGPT Health culd lead t peple nt getting the urgent medical care they need, as well as an increase in peple asking fr unnecessary medical care.
The researchers say their results suggest that AI systems such as ChatGPT Health are nt adaptable enugh t respnd t serius medical inquiries, and that humans may still be needed t versee such imprtant medical decisins.
8. What culd users d with ChatGPT Health?
A. Uplad medical data fr health advice.B. Access thers’ persnal details.
C. Get real-time help frm human dctrs.D. Treat all emergency medical cnditins.
9. What did the 960 respnses frm ChatGPT Health shw?
A. It ignred mild health prblems.B. It fllwed dctrs’ judgment fully.
C. It gave crrect advice in mst cases.D. It ften misjudged medical urgency.
10. What can be inferred abut ChatGPT Health?
A. It can replace human medical supervisin.
B. It may add pressure t health care systems.
C. It is designed nly fr emergency care cases.
D. It cllects mre medical data than required.
11. What is the main purpse f the text?
A. T prmte a new AI feature.B. T teach hw t use AI medical tls.
C. T cmpare AI’s and dctrs’ advice.D. T warn f risks f ChatGPT Health.

Inspired by the thunderus ftsteps f the huge dinsaur in Jurassic Park, a German startup called IMENSUS has designed a rver (探测车) that culd change the way we explre the Mn. The rver generates seismic (地震的) waves that travel deep int the grund, creating artificial quakes t map what lies beneath. “We’re shaking the grund,” said David Frey, head f engineering.
On Earth, this technlgy helps mining cmpanies lcate valuable materials such as cpper and gld. Seismic waves slw dwn when passing thrugh dense, mineral-rich rcks. By measuring wave speeds with surface sensrs, prspectrs can identify undergrund resurces withut digging. But Frey believes the real ptential lies beynd ur planet. As space agencies set their sights n the Mn, accessing lcal resurces — such as ice at the lunar Suth Ple and reglith (月壤) fr cnstructin — will be essential. “Everyne’s just thinking, ‘Let’s g, dig, and use the material.’ But there might be a huge rck underneath. Yu want t knw this befre yu g, because it’s super expensive,” Frey explained.
Unlike past scientific missins that relied n unpredictable natural mnquakes, this methd wuld let the rver generate cntrlled seismic events n demand. Lunar seismlgist Dr. Nichlas Schmerr frm the University f Maryland nted that such seismic sunding can effectively lcate structures within the tp kilmeter f the subsurface, including lava tubes r buried ices.
Hwever, Schmerr als warned that extreme temperatures, slar radiatin, and sharp, rugh reglith n the Mn culd easily destry machinery. While IMENSUS’s Earth-based pilt phase is set t begin in 2027, applying the same technlgy n the Mn will require careful engineering t ensure survival in such harsh cnditins.
Still, bth experts agree that seismic explratin will be vital fr future lunar missins. Whether IMENSUS’s cncept reaches the Mn depends n the prgress f prgrams like NASA’s Artemis. But as Frey sees it, the same technlgy culd ne day be used n Mars r even asterids. One thing is certain: if humans are t build a lasting presence beynd Earth, we must first understand what lies beneath the surface.
12. What d surface sensrs d in the seismic technlgy?
A. Lcate ice at the lunar Suth Ple.
B. Analyze undergrund resurces.
C. Measure the speed f seismic waves.
D. Dig ut mineral-rich rcks directly.
13. Hw is the new seismic methd different frm past missins?
A. It needs undergrund sensrs.B. It relies n natural seismic activities.
C. It prduces cntrlled mnquakes.D. It investigates deep lunar structures.
14. What des the underlined wrd “harsh” in paragraph 4 prbably mean?
A. Severe.B. Calm.C. Mild.D. Nrmal.
15. What is the text mainly abut?
A. Seismic waves n the Mn.
B. A new way t explre the Mn.
C. Challenges f living n the Mn.
D. Building an peratinal lunar base.

Annie Byrne, a single mther, lived in a small huse with a small backyard in a Canadian twn. Having lst her full-time jb, she had t wrk several part-time jbs t make ends meet. Mney was always tight, and she ften skipped meals t save fr Simn’s schl supplies and utility bills. A cld wind blew thrugh the brken kitchen windw, but since she culdn’t affrd t fix it, Annie had stuffed ld twels int the gaps t keep ut the cld. Every night, Annie tssed and turned in bed, wrrying abut putting fd n the table fr the next day. Simn, wh pretended t be asleep, hated seeing his mm bury her face in her hands and cry quietly.
One day, Simn verheard his mm talking t a friend abut the vegetables she’d been grwing. “I planted them t save n grceries,” Annie sighed, wiping sweat frm her frehead — she’d just rushed hme frm her cleaning jb. “Nw, I’m wndering if I culd sell the extras fr a little mney. But I’m just t wrn ut t d anything else after wrk.”

Culd I use ur emergency savings t buy supplies? The prduce is rganic, and peple arund here care abut that. I prmise it wn’t get in the way f my studies.”
“Are yu sure, Simn? It might take up all yur free time, and yu’ll miss ut n hanging ut with yur friends.”
“I’m sure, Mm. I dn’t mind at all. What matters is that yu dn’t have t wrk s hard. Yu cme hme s tired every day that yu can barely speak,” Simn said firmly.
Reluctantly, his mther agreed and gave him the small amunt f mney fr the purchase.
