Many believe that a haircut during the first lunar month may bring bad luck to your uncles - mainly your mother's brothers. They hope getting a haircut on Longtaitou keeps them away from bad luck.

Among Chinese people's festival traditions, there is always a place for food. During the Longtaitou festival, people eat food named after dragons. Noodles are called dragon's beard (longxu). Dumplings are dragon's ears (long'er).

There's an unwritten rule among documentary film-makers-to watch, but not intervene(干涉). But a BBC documentary worker in Antarctica made a hard decision.

In one of the Dynasties series, mother penguins can be seen leaving babies behind when they can't get out from the ravine(深沟). Some babies died from the freezing low temperatures.

After a storm, the workers returned to the area and decided to do something. They built a ramp (斜坡) to help the remaining penguins climb to safety.

“We chose to intervene with the least influence," said the shows director, Will Lawson.“Once we'd dug the little ramp, we left it to the birds. We were excited when they used it."

“It's very rare for the film workers to intervene," he said. “But they realize that they might be able to save some of these birds simply by digging a few steps in the ice."

“It's such an unusual condition to do this," he added. “It wasn't dangerous. You weren't touching the animals and by doing this, they had the chance to get out of the trouble."

Type in “A cat wants to go to space" and ask the robot to write a bedtime story. Just one second later, you'll get the story of Max, who clawed his way past many difficulties to sing among the stars.

This robot writer is real. It's called ChatGPT. US company OpenAI developed it to generate(生成) human-like texts. It can translate languages, talk with people and write songs, poems and even jokes. It's one of the most powerful AI of its kind.

The power of ChatGPT lies in its speed and understanding of complicated(复杂的) matters. We may spend hours researching, understanding and writing an article on the theory of evolution(进化论). But ChatGPT can produce a well-written one in seconds. Another good thing about it is that if you ask dark, harmful questions, such as how to make weapons(武器), it will not give you an answer.

ChatGPT comes along at a time when AI is becoming increasingly able to do creative tasks. The materials they create are difficult to tell from those made by humans. This causes many ethical(道德的) issues, such as the issue of copyright(版权). Since the system is largely trained using words from the Internet, it can also pick up on the Internet's biases(偏见) and stereotypes(刻板印象) about certain groups. These are all the things that depend on humans to solve.

42.The cat story was written to ______.

A. show what creative work ChatGPT can do

B. introduce a cat that wants to go to space

C. introduce a series of bedtime books

D. show how robots create stories

43. ChatGPT can do following things except ______.

A. making up human-like texts

B. singing songs to people

C. writing songs, poems and even jokes

D. producing a good article in seconds

44. What do we know about ChatGPT?

A. It is the most powerful kind of AI.

B. It is still under development.

C. It can write almost anything a human can write.

D. People cannot tell the difference between texts from ChatGPT and humans.

45. What's the main idea of the last paragraph?

A. How people will feel about writing in the future. B. People's biases about AI writing.

C. Human efforts in developing AI writing.

D. What problems AI writing can cause.

四、词语运用(共15小题，每小题1分，满分15分)

五、任务型阅读(共10小题，61-65 题每小题1分，66-70 题每小题2分，满分15分)

What will the schools of the future look like? 5G smart campuses(校园) are being built all over the world. They help students learn more effectively, as well as bring convenience to teachers.

The University of British Columbia has created Canada's first 5G smart campus. The school worked with a technology company to build a 5G network across its campus. Their researchers can use the network to test 5G software.

At Staffordshire University in the UK, many students enjoy talking to Beacon and asking it questions. Beacon is an AI robot which can chat with you. It is like a personal assistant for students at school. They can ask it questions, such as whether or not one of their classes is cancelled.

5G smart campus will be a big help for students who take online classes. Many people live in poor areas where there are no schools. But with 5G, this will change. With virtual (虚拟) reality systems, students will be able to see places like the Great Wall without leaving their classrooms.

In Australia, for example, many students live far away from schools. They use cameras to talk to their teachers online, but sometimes it's a poor experience because of unstable (不稳定) connections. With the speed of 5G network, their teachers will be able to teach without worrying about their connection, according to technology radar.

注:每题答案不超过5个单词。

66. Who will 5G smart campus help a lot?

67. Which university has created Canada's first 5G smart campus?

68. What is Beacon like at school?
