A new attempt t predict earthquakes with the aid f artificial intelligence （AI） has raised hpes that the technlgy culd ne day be used t limit earthquakes' impact n lives and ecnmies.Develped by researchers at The University f Texas at Austin，the AI algrithm crrectly predicted 70% f earthquakes a week befre they happened during a seven-mnth trial in China.
The AI was trained t find unusual patterns in real-time seismic data that researchers had paired with the data f previus earthquakes.The utcme was a weekly frecast in which the AI successfully predicted 14 earthquakes within abut 200 miles f where it estimated they wuld happen and at almst exactly the calculated strength.It missed ne earthquake and gave eight false warnings.
It's nt yet knwn if the same apprach will wrk at ther lcatins，but the effrt is a significant achievement in research fr AI-driven earthquake frecasting.
"Predicting earthquakes is the ultimate gal，" said a prfessr，wh is a member f the research team. "We're nt yet clse t making predictins fr anywhere in the wrld，but what we achieved tells us that what we thught was an impssible prblem is slvable in principle."
The researchers said that their methd had succeeded by fllwing a relatively simple machine learning apprach.The AI was given a set f statistical features based n the team's knwledge f earthquake physics，then tld t train itself n a five-year database f seismic recrdings.Once trained，the AI gave its frecast by listening fr signs f incming earthquakes amng the backgrund rumblings in the Earth.
"Our future gal is t cmbine bth physics and data-driven methds t create a generalized system that we can apply anywhere in the wrld，" said the AI's lead develper. "The new research is an imprtant step twards achieving that gal."
8.What d we say abut AI predicting earthquakes？ ______
A. The rate f accuracy is high.
B. It has gt prven wrldwide.
C. The predictin is cmpletely randm.
D. Earthquakes can be cntrlled by scientists.
9.Which can best explain the underlined wrd " seismic" in paragraph 2？ ______
A. Related t weather patterns.B. Related t earthquakes.
C. Related t vlcanic activities.D. Related t cean currents.
10.What is researchers' attitude twards AI predicting earthquakes？ ______
A. Dubtful.B. Uncertain.C. Optimistic.D. Unfavrable.
11.What is the best title fr the text？ ______
A. The Develpment Of Earthquake
B. AI's Rle in Predicting Earthquakes
C. AI's Frecast abut Natural Disasters

Literature makes us better thinkers.It mves us t see the multi-sideness f situatins and therefre expands the width f ur wn visins,mving us twards dreams and slutins we might nt therwise have imagined.
-Judith Langer,Envisining Literature When students study Literature,they learn t appreciate wrds and their pwer.They travel t ther areas and times thrugh the texts they read.They understand abut their wn culture and thers'.They learn t empathize （共情） with characters,t feel their jys and pain.Fr example,ne 15-year-ld student shared with me that when studying the shrt stry The Shes f My Sensei by Gh Sin Tub,he culd put himself int the shes f thse wh lived thrugh Wrld War Ⅱ，and understand their suffering,and what it was like during that time.
Imprtantly,they lean t cnsider multiple aspects and understand the cmplexity f human nature.Take,fr example,Gerge Orwell's Animal Farm.D we feel Naplen is fully respnsible fr the miserable lives the animals lead？Aren't the ther animals respnsible fr their wn misfrtune t,having allwed Naplen t bully them？In Literature,as in life,things aren't always s clear cut,in black and white.And there lies the value f the subject-it prepares ne fr the ambiguities（模棱两可）f life, t take uncertainties in ne's stride.
Literature develps in students lasting values,such as integrity,sympathy,lyalty and respnsibility.Fr example,in a text like Arthur Miller's The Crucible,the main character chses t sacrifice his wn life rather than betray his friends and neighbrs.When cnsidering this character's mtivatins,students discuss the value f integrity.They reflect n what it takes t be a man r wman wh cmmands the respect f the peple arund them even in difficult situatins.The texts students explre give them multiple pprtunities t discuss and re-evaluate their wn values and beliefs.These act as a cmpass in life as students grw up.
12.Why is an example f a 15-year-ld student mentined in the first paragraph？ ______
A. T raise peple's awareness f appreciating thers' culture.
B. T appeal t readers t read mre Literature n Wrld War Ⅱ.
C. T remind students that Literature can make the wrld free f war.
D. T shw Literature can make ne think frm thers' pints f view.
13.What des the underlined part prbably mean in Paragraph 3？ ______
A. Accept smething uncertain withut special effrt.
B. Allw ne t take the ambiguities f life fr granted.
C. Have the curage t face the misfrtune ccurring in life.
D. Take the respnsibility t fight against the miserable lives.
14.Accrding t the last paragraph,Literature can help students ______ .
A. lead a happy lifeB. build up right values
C. get n well with friendsD. handle difficult situatins
15.What might be the best title fr the text？ ______
A. Where shuld students start when they study Literature？
B. What will students gain thrugh the study f Literature？
C. Why will Literature help students in their future success？
D. Hw can we supprt students in their study f Literature？

（3）______When light hits an bject，it bunces ff its surface and enters ur eyes.The light travels thrugh the eye lens （晶状体）.The lens then fcuses the light rays，which fall n the retina （视网膜）.A chemical present in the retina turns light int electric signals，which are then transmitted t the brain.The brain prcesses the signals and ultimately allws us t see stuff.
The act f squinting，quite bviusly，alters the shape f the space thrugh which light passes，which helps us frm a clear image n the retina.What's mre，light frm different directins enters and is subsequently perceived by the eye.（4）______Hwever，when yu're trying t fcus n smething，if there's light entering frm multiple directins，the lens will be verladed.By squinting，fcusing light rays becmes mre precise.
Squinting des nt damage yur eyesight.（5）______It's ne thing t ccasinally squint in rder t make ut smething far away.But if yu find yurself ding it all the time，getting yur eyes tested shuld be yur fcus.

Nwadays，safety is very imprtant fr us.Hw can we keep safe？In the English class，we had a discussin in grups.Here is the result f my grup.
First，______________________
38.阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I vividly remember the day when，as a nine-year-ld，I participated in a primary schl sing-alng.While everyne else sang the main tune，I autmatically harmnized （以和声唱）， but the sund I sang was ut f tune with everyne else.At that mment，I suddenly saw my classmates lking at me，and I felt embarrassed.That experience left a lasting impact.I prmised myself that I wuld never sing in public again，but it didn't stp there.My fear f embarrassment grew s strng that I began t clse myself ff frm sharing anything — my thughts，my feelings，and my ideas — with thers.
Thrughut my primary and high schl years，I remained quiet.When teachers asked questins in class，I stayed silent，t afraid f being wrng，thugh I knew the answers t the questins.Even when I had ideas t cntribute t grup discussins，I held back.I wanted t speak up，but the fear f embarrassment always utweighed my desire t be heard.
I had built a cage arund my wn ptential，letting fear and self-dubt cntrl my life.But ver time，I realized that living in this self-made prisn was far mre painful than the risk f stepping utside f it.I was in a place that an authr described well when she said， "Then the day came when the risk it tk t remain tightly clsed in a bud （花蕾） became mre painful than the risk t blm."
That realizatin sparked （引发） smething within me，but it tk anther small mment t set the change in mtin.During my first year f cllege，I was chatting with a friend in a quiet café，talking abut life，dreams，and fears.I watched her speak s penly and cnfidently abut her experiences and thughts.It amazed me hw free she was in expressing herself，unafraid f what thers might think.She shared a stry abut an art prject she was wrking n.She wasn't afraid t be herself and it struck me deeply.

37.【答案】 Nwadays，safety is very imprtant fr us.Hw can we keep safe？In the English class，we had a discussin in grups.Here is the result f my grup.
First，we shuld bey the traffic rules.Secnd，we shuld eat healthy fd and we'd better nt eat any junk fd.Third，we mustn't g swimming in the rivers withut an adult，althugh we are gd at swimming.Furth，we shuldn't hang ut alne at night and we shuld g back hme as early as pssible.And finally，we are nt allwed t chat with strangers nline.
All in all，we can never be t careful when it cmes t safety.Withut safety，we can d nthing.Let's stay safe at any time.
38.【答案】 At that mment，I decided t change and began with small steps.The next day，I frced myself t raise my hand in class，even thugh my heart was racing.It was a small victry，but it felt huge.I began t speak up mre ften in grup discussins，even if my ideas weren't fully frmed r I was unsure f myself.Slwly，the fear that had cntrlled me fr s lng started t lse its hld.I allwed myself t make mistakes，knwing that each ne was a chance t grw.
Tday，I can g cnfidently in the directin f my dreams.I share my ideas withut hesitatin，whether in class r with friends.The fear f judgment still shws up at times，but I n lnger let it silence me.I've learned that expressing myself is a strength，nt a weakness.I've cme t understand that taking risks and being vulnerable are part f the jurney t becming wh I truly am.Each step frward is a reminder that I am n lnger the persn wh hides in the shadws，but smene wh embraces the light.
