Geffrey Everest Hintn is a British-Canadian cgnitive (认知的) psychlgist andcmputer scientist. In May 2023, Hintn annunced his leaving frm Ggle t be able t“freely speak ut abut the risks f AI”. Hintn’s wrk n neural netwrks—the methdthat teaches AI t prcess data in a way similar t the human brain—supprts hw mdernchatbts like ChatGPT and Ggle Bard functin. But nw, he partly regrets making thisadvancement.
Hintn has been wrking n neural netwrks since he was a graduate student at theUniversity f Edinburgh in the 1970s. Then few researchers believed in the idea. EvenHintn’s PhD advisr had his dubts. “We met nce a week,” Hintn said. “Smetimes itended in a shuting match.”
But Hintn persisted with his wrk. In the 1980s, he and his clleagues put frward atechnique called backprpagatin—an algrithm (算法) fr training machines. In 2012, hehad a big breakthrugh: Hintn and tw f his students created a neural netwrk that culdanalyze phts and teach itself t identify bjects. The next year, the team’s neural netwrkstartup was bught by Ggle, where Hintn cntinued t wrk.
Fr years, Hintn believed neural netwrks were nt as gd as the way human brainsfunctin, but he’s recently started thinking differently. He nce thught it wuld take up t50 years fr the technlgy t utsmart humans, but he nw predicts it’ll be just 5 t 20.Hintn’s immediate cncerns are that fake text, pictures and vides prduced by AI willmake regular peple unable t distinguish them frm reality. Eventually, this technlgyculd be used by humans t influence public pinin. He believes that AI culd avid itslimits and begin making peple d what it wants by learning hw humans cntrl r influencethers.
Hwever, YannLeCun, Meta’s chief AI scientist wh wn the 2018 Turing Award withHintn, has a different pinin. “I believe that intelligent machines will lead t a newrenaissance (复兴) fr humanity, a new era f enlightenment,” LeCun said.
24. What can we knw abut Geffrey Everest Hintn?
A. He struggled a lt at Ggle befre leaving.B. He shwed little interest in AI at cllege.
C. He prides himself n his achievements in AI.D. He cntributes a lt t the develpment f AI.
25. What des the underlined part “persisted with” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Put aside.B. Shwed ff.C. Stuck t.D. Jumped at.
26. What wuld happen t AI in the future accrding t Hintn?
A. It might cntrl humans.B. It might make humans quick thinkers.
C. It will better prtect peple’s privacy.D. It will need technlgical breakthrughs.
27. What is YannLeCun’s attitude twards AI in the future?

Since Nelithic (新石器时代的) times, sculpture has been cnsidered the privilege f men as it was assumed that wmen were nt suited fr the hard manual labr required in sculpting stne, carving wd, r wrking in metal. It has been nly during the twentieth-century that wmen sculptrs have been recgnized as majr artists, and it has been in the United States that wmen sculptrs have shwn the greatest riginality and creative pwer. By far the mst utstanding f these wmen is Luis Nevelsn, wh in the eyes f many critics is the mst riginal female artist alive tday. One famus and influential critic Hiltn Kramer, said f her wrk, “Fr myself, I think Ms. Nevelsn succeeds where the painters ften fail.”
Her wrks have been cmpared t the Cubist (立体主义的) cnstructins f Picass, the surrealistic (超现实主义的) bjects f Mir and the Merzhau f Schwitters. And she wuld be the first t admit that she has been influenced by all f these, as well as by African sculpture, and by Native American and pre-Clumbian art. Nevelsn says, “I have always wanted t shw the wrld that art is everywhere, except that it has t pass thrugh a creative mind.”
Using mstly thrwn-away wden bjects like packing crates, brken pieces f furniture, and abandned architectural rnaments, she makes architectural cnstructins f great beauty and pwer. Creating very freely, she glues and nails bjects tgether, paints them black, r mre rarely white r gld, and places them in bxes. These cllectins, walls, even entire envirnments create a mysterius, almst awe-inspiring atmsphere. Althugh she has refused t admit any symblic r religius intentin in her wrks, their three-dimensinal grandeur (宏伟) and even their titles, such as Sky Cathedral and Night Cathedral, suggest such meanings.
28. The passage mainly fcuses n ______.
A. a general tendency in twentieth-century art
B. the artistic influences n wmen sculptrs
C. the wrk f a particular wman artist
D. critical respnses t twentieth-century sculpture
29. What can be inferred frm Hiltn Kramer’s cmment n Luis Nevelsn?
A. She has the ability t cmbine sculpture and painting.
B. Her creativity and riginality make her wrk unique.
C. Her wrk is s expressive that n painters can cmpete with her.
D. Peple turned their interest t sculpture instead f painting due t her talents.
30. Abut Nevelsn’s sculptures, the authr believes ______.
A. they are uniquely American in style and sensibility
B. they shw the influence f twentieth-century architecture
C. they d nt have qualities characteristic f sculpture
D. they suggest religius and symblic meanings
31. What might Nevelsn’s sculptures be like accrding t the last paragraph?
A. They are smetimes very large.
B. They are ften painted in several clrs.
C. They are meant fr display utdrs.
D. They are built arund a central wden bject.

Nw, a new study has revealed eating mre ultra-prcessed (超加工) fds may cntribute t verall cgnitive (认知的) decline, including the areas f the brain invlved in executive functining (执行功能) — the ability t prcess infrmatin and make decisins.
We all knw eating ultraprcessed fds that make ur lives easier — such as prepackaged sups, sauces, frzen pizza and ready-t-eat meals — isn’t gd fr ur health. Nr is eating up all the pleasure fds that we lve s much: ht dgs, sausages, burgers, french fries, sdas, ckies, cakes, candies, dughnuts and ice cream, t name just a few.
Tanzi, wh has written in his bk The Healing Self: A Revlutinary New Plan t Supercharge Yur Immunity and Stay Well fr Life, said the key prblem with ultra prcessed fds is that they are usually very high in sugar, salt and fat, all f which prmte systemic inflammatin (炎症), perhaps the mst majr harm t healthy aging in the bdy and brain.
“Meanwhile, since they are cnvenient as a quick meal, they als replace eating fd that is high in plant fiber that is imprtant fr maintaining the health and balance f the trillins f bacteria (细菌) in yur gut micrbime (肠道),” he added, “which is particularly imprtant fr brain health and reducing risk f age-related brain diseases like Alzheimer’s disease.”
Ultraprcessed fds are defined as “industrial frmulatins (配方) f fd substances (成分) (ils fats, sugars, starch, and prtein islates) that cntain little r n whle fds and typically include flavrings, clrings, and ther chemical additives,” accrding t the study.
“Peple wh cnsumed mre than 20% f daily calries frm prcessed fds had a 28% faster decline in glbal cgnitin and a 25% faster decline in executive functining cmpared t peple wh ate less than 20%,” said study cauthr Natalia Gncalves.
“Peple need t knw they shuld ck mre and prepare their wn fd frm scratch. I knw. We say we dn’t have time but it really desn’t take that much time,” Suemt said.
“And it’s wrth it because yu’re ging t prtect yur heart and guard yur brain frm dementia (精神错乱) r Alzheimer’s disease,” she added. “That’s the take-hme message: Stp buying things that are superprcessed.”
32. Which f the fllwing desn’t belng t ultraprcessed fds?
A. Ptat.B. Ready-t-eat meals.
C. Ice cream.D. Sdas.
33. Why d ultraprcessed fds have a negative effect n peple’s cgnitin?
A. They reduce the areas f the brain invlved in executive functining.
B. Illnesses prmted by their sugar, salt and fat lead t brain aging.
C. Their trillins f bacteria may increase the risk f brain diseases.
D. Peple wh cnsume mre calries frm them may think fast.
34. What is Suemt’s attitude t ultraprcessed fds?
A. Objective.B. Cautius.
C. Oppsed.D. Favrable.
35. What is the passage mainly abut?
A. Stp buying things that are superprcessed.
B. Ultraprcessed fds fail cgnitin.
C. Ck mre and prepare yur wn fd.
D. Eating plays an imprtant rle in prtecting brains.
