A new study warns that mre than a fifth f all reptile （爬行动物） species are threatened with extinctin，which may have a bad impact n the planet.
The largest ever analysis f the state f the wrld's reptiles，published in Nature，has shwed that 21% f the reptile species are facing extinctin.The study says frm lizards t snakes，such a lss culd have disastrus impacts n ecsystems arund the wrld.
Althugh many reptiles live in dry envirnments such as deserts，mst species ccur in frests，where they suffer frm threats such as lgging f land fr agriculture.30% f the frest-dwelling reptiles are at risk f extinctin，cmpared with 14% in dry habitats.Hunting is als a majr threat t reptiles，especially turtles and crcdiles，many f which are at risk f extinctin.Anther majr cntributing factr is the intrductin f invasive species.
"If we remved reptiles，it culd change ecsystems fundamentally，with unfrtunate knck-n effects，such as increases in pest insects，" said Neil Cx，c-leader f the study. "Bidiversity，including reptiles，supprts the ecsystem services that prvide a healthy envirnment fr peple."
Our hpe is that this first-ever assessment f the wrld's 10，000-plus reptiles helps put them in the sptlight and ges sme way t highlighting this diversity，and just hw much we have t lse.As well as cntrlling rats，msquites and ther pests，reptiles deliver many ther benefits. "They help spread seeds，especially in island envirnments，" said researcher Hffmann. "We've als achieved many medical advances frm studies f reptiles."
The results f the study are nt all dm and glm.Scientists have fund，surprisingly，that if they set ut t prtect places where threatened birds，mammals and amphibians （两栖动物） live tgether，they'll meanwhile prtect many mre threatened reptiles.

In March，2023，a grup f cmputer scientists published an assessment f a new chatbt with artificial intelligence （AI）.The team's reprt drew glbal attentin t ne test in particular：We have a bk，nine eggs，a laptp，a bttle and a nail，and please tell me hw t pile them nt each ther in a stable manner.This is a tugh puzzle.Earlier versins f the chatbt gave silly and unreasnable answers.But the new chatbt's unique answer helped set ff the current glbal wave f AI advcacy and anxiety.It fueled debate abut hw large language mdels （LLMs） were able t perfrm creative tasks.
By 2022，LLMs were being trained n as many as 17 trillin wrds f human-generated text，mainly frm the Internet.It was certain that the new chatbt was expsed t functinal fixedness （功能固着） prblems in its training.The researchers were f curse aware f that and invented the "eggs and laptp" puzzle t prevent the new chatbt frm dishnestly cpying an answer frm the Internet.LLMs used language statistics nly.N ne had said hw t pile these nine eggs n tp f each ther ever befre.The extreme rarity f thse wrds wuld tend t prevent LLMs frm talking abut piling eggs in unrealistic ways.One f the researchers that tested the new chatbt thinks it's likely that an LLM trained n trillins f wrds creates a wrld mdel，and this is what gives it the "magical" extraplatin （外推） prperties.
Are LLMs truly riginal，r are they just plagiarists （剽窃者）？The tw statements may nt be as different as they seem.There's nthing entirely new under the sun.Edisn did nt invent the light bulb but imprved it.Mst s-called creatrs apply knwledge frm different fields t a prblem and arrive at a slutin.It's mre a matter f making relevant cnnectins than f inventing smething cmpletely new.If LLMs are indeed acquiring the ability t make relevant cnnectins，that wuld be a histric but discm frting develpment.
12.What d we knw abut the new chatbt's answer t the puzzle in paragraph 1？ ______
A. It was silly.
B. It set peple thinking.
C. It drew little attentin.
D. It highlighted language innvatin.
13.Why did the researchers invent the "eggs and laptp" puzzle？ ______
A. T cpy nline answers.
B. T stp the chatbt cheating.
C. T train humans t use language.
D. T expse the chatbt t functinal prblems.
14.What des the authr cnvey in the last paragraph？ ______
A. Hw an inventin came int being.
B. Hw Edisn became successful in histry.
C. Why Edisn invented smething entirely new.
D. Why an inventin required effrt and pprtunity.
15.What is the best title fr the text？ ______
A. Will Rbts Replace Humans？
B. Can Rbts Develp Smthly？
C. Can AI Cme Up With Anything Original？
D. Will AI Slve Magical And Difficult Prblems？

一、速读全文，了解大意知主题。
阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力，考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读，搜寻关键词、主题句，捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点，并且理清文章脉络，把握语篇实质。
二、看题干，带着问题读文章。
首先要掌握问题的类型，客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案；而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等，这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次，了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息，然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读，对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性，提高了做题的准确率。
三、逻辑推理，做好深层理解题。
在实际阅读中，有时作者并未把意图说出来，阅读者要根据字面意思，通过语篇逻辑关系，研究细节的暗示，推敲作者的态度，理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理，不能就事论事，以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有：infer，imply，suggest，indicate等。
四、猜词悟义，扫除阅读拦路虎。
猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文，而且要有较大的泛读量，掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜"，通过构词，语法，定义，同位，对比，因果，常识，上下文等线索确定词义。

一、速读全文，了解大意知主题。
阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力，考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读，搜寻关键词、主题句，捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点，并且理清文章脉络，把握语篇实质。
二、看题干，带着问题读文章。
首先要掌握问题的类型，客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案；而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等，这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次，了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息，然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读，对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性，提高了做题的准确率。
三、逻辑推理，做好深层理解题。
在实际阅读中，有时作者并未把意图说出来，阅读者要根据字面意思，通过语篇逻辑关系，研究细节的暗示，推敲作者的态度，理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理，不能就事论事，以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有：infer，imply，suggest，indicate等。
四、猜词悟义，扫除阅读拦路虎。
猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文，而且要有较大的泛读量，掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜"，通过构词，语法，定义，同位，对比，因果，常识，上下文等线索确定词义。

（5）联系上文题。根据上文Avid fd waste.（避免食物浪费。）可知，本句主要说明避免食物浪费。F选项And if n ne likes smething，there is n need t buy it.（如果没有人喜欢某样东西，就没有必要买）符合语境，故选F。
这是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了环保地过新年的方法。

（9）考查过去分词。句意：我最喜欢的是川菜，一个以辛辣和有趣的菜肴而闻名的省份。本句系动词为was，此处应用非谓语动词，且knw和它所修饰的词prvince之间是被动关系，应用过去分词作后置定语。故填knwn。
（10）考查动名词。句意：如果有人对在中国旅游感兴趣，我强烈建议骑自行车去！recmmend ding sth."建议做某事"，应用g的动名词形式，作宾语。故填ging。

A new study warns that mre than a fifth f all reptile （爬行动物） species are threatened with extinctin，which may have a bad impact n the planet.
The largest ever analysis f the state f the wrld's reptiles，published in Nature，has shwed that 21% f the reptile species are facing extinctin.The study says frm lizards t snakes，such a lss culd have disastrus impacts n ecsystems arund the wrld.
Althugh many reptiles live in dry envirnments such as deserts，mst species ccur in frests，where they suffer frm threats such as lgging f land fr agriculture.30% f the frest-dwelling reptiles are at risk f extinctin，cmpared with 14% in dry habitats.Hunting is als a majr threat t reptiles，especially turtles and crcdiles，many f which are at risk f extinctin.Anther majr cntributing factr is the intrductin f invasive species.
"If we remved reptiles，it culd change ecsystems fundamentally，with unfrtunate knck-n effects，such as increases in pest insects，" said Neil Cx，c-leader f the study. "Bidiversity，including reptiles，supprts the ecsystem services that prvide a healthy envirnment fr peple."
Our hpe is that this first-ever assessment f the wrld's 10，000-plus reptiles helps put them in the sptlight and ges sme way t highlighting this diversity，and just hw much we have t lse.As well as cntrlling rats，msquites and ther pests，reptiles deliver many ther benefits. "They help spread seeds，especially in island envirnments，" said researcher Hffmann. "We've als achieved many medical advances frm studies f reptiles."

In March，2023，a grup f cmputer scientists published an assessment f a new chatbt with artificial intelligence （AI）.The team's reprt drew glbal attentin t ne test in particular：We have a bk，nine eggs，a laptp，a bttle and a nail，and please tell me hw t pile them nt each ther in a stable manner.This is a tugh puzzle.Earlier versins f the chatbt gave silly and unreasnable answers.But the new chatbt's unique answer helped set ff the current glbal wave f AI advcacy and anxiety.It fueled debate abut hw large language mdels （LLMs） were able t perfrm creative tasks.
By 2022，LLMs were being trained n as many as 17 trillin wrds f human-generated text，mainly frm the Internet.It was certain that the new chatbt was expsed t functinal fixedness （功能固着） prblems in its training.The researchers were f curse aware f that and invented the "eggs and laptp" puzzle t prevent the new chatbt frm dishnestly cpying an answer frm the Internet.LLMs used language statistics nly.N ne had said hw t pile these nine eggs n tp f each ther ever befre.The extreme rarity f thse wrds wuld tend t prevent LLMs frm talking abut piling eggs in unrealistic ways.One f the researchers that tested the new chatbt thinks it's likely that an LLM trained n trillins f wrds creates a wrld mdel，and this is what gives it the "magical" extraplatin （外推） prperties.
Are LLMs truly riginal，r are they just plagiarists （剽窃者）？The tw statements may nt be as different as they seem.There's nthing entirely new under the sun.Edisn did nt invent the light bulb but imprved it.Mst s-called creatrs apply knwledge frm different fields t a prblem and arrive at a slutin.It's mre a matter f making relevant cnnectins than f inventing smething cmpletely new.If LLMs are indeed acquiring the ability t make relevant cnnectins，that wuld be a histric but discm frting develpment.

C. It drew little attentin.

C. T train humans t use language.
D. T expse the chatbt t functinal prblems.
14.What des the authr cnvey in the last paragraph？ ______
A. Hw an inventin came int being.
B. Hw Edisn became successful in histry.
C. Why Edisn invented smething entirely new.
D. Why an inventin required effrt and pprtunity.

一、速读全文，了解大意知主题。
阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力，考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读，搜寻关键词、主题句，捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点，并且理清文章脉络，把握语篇实质。
二、看题干，带着问题读文章。
首先要掌握问题的类型，客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案；而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等，这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次，了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息，然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读，对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性，提高了做题的准确率。
三、逻辑推理，做好深层理解题。
在实际阅读中，有时作者并未把意图说出来，阅读者要根据字面意思，通过语篇逻辑关系，研究细节的暗示，推敲作者的态度，理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理，不能就事论事，以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有：infer，imply，suggest，indicate等。
四、猜词悟义，扫除阅读拦路虎。
猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文，而且要有较大的泛读量，掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜"，通过构词，语法，定义，同位，对比，因果，常识，上下文等线索确定词义。
8~11.【答案】A、C、A、B
【解析】（1）细节理解题。根据第一段A new study warns that mre than a fifth f all reptile （爬行动物） species are threatened with extinctin，which may have a bad impact n the planet. （一项新的研究警告说，超过五分之一的爬行动物物种面临灭绝的威胁，这可能对地球产生不良影响。）可知，这项新研究提出的主要担忧是爬虫类动物的消失。故选A。
（2）推理判断题。根据第三段Althugh many reptiles live in dry envirnments such as deserts，mst species ccur in frests，where they suffer frm threats such as lgging f land fr agriculture.30% f the frest-dwelling reptiles are at risk f extinctin，cmpared with 14% in dry habitats.Hunting is als a majr threat t reptiles，especially turtles and crcdiles，many f which are at risk f extinctin.Anther majr cntributing factr is the intrductin f invasive species. （虽然许多爬行动物生活在沙漠等干燥环境中，但大多数物种生活在森林中，在那里它们受到诸如农业用地砍伐等威胁。30%的森林爬行动物面临灭绝的危险，而干旱栖息地的这一比例为14%。狩猎也是爬行动物的主要威胁，尤其是海龟和鳄鱼，其中许多都有灭绝的危险。另一个主要因素是入侵物种的引入。）可知，第3段提到了三个导致物种灭绝的因素。故选C。
（3）推理判断题。根据倒数第三段Bidiversity，including reptiles，supprts the ecsystem services that prvide a healthy envirnment fr peple. （包括爬行动物在内的生物多样性支持为人类提供健康环境的生态系统服务。）以及倒数第二段They help spread seeds，especially in island envirnments （它们有助于传播种子，尤其是在岛屿环境中）可知，尼尔•考克斯和霍夫曼提到了爬行动物的益处。故选A。
（4）词句猜测题。根据划线词后文Scientists have fund，surprisingly，that if they set ut t prtect places where threatened birds，mammals and amphibians （两栖动物） live tgether，they'll meanwhile prtect many mre threatened reptiles. （令人惊讶的是，科学家们发现，如果他们开始保护受威胁的鸟类、哺乳动物和两栖动物共同生活的地方，他们同时也会保护更多受威胁的爬行动物。）可知，后文提到了更多受威胁的爬行动物会受到保护，说明这项研究的结果并不都是令人失望的。故划线词意思是"令人失望的"。A.Odd.奇怪的；B.Disappinting.令人失望的；C.Satisfactry.令人满意的；D.Amazing.令人惊讶的。故选B。
本文是一篇说明文。短文主要讨论了一项新研究警告称，超过五分之一的爬行动物物种面临灭绝的威胁，这可能会对地球产生不良影响。研究显示，从蜥蜴到蛇，这样的损失可能对世界各地的生态系统产生灾难性影响。许多爬行动物生活在干旱环境中，但大多数物种生活在森林中，受到森林砍伐等威胁。狩猎也是爬行动物面临的主要威胁之一。研究结果显示，如果保护受威胁的鸟类、哺乳动物和两栖动物生活的地方，也将同时保护更多受威胁的爬行动物。

（2）推理判断题。根据第二段The researchers were f curse aware f that and invented the"eggs and laptp"puzzle t prevent the new chatbt frm dishnestly cpying an answer frm the Internet.（研究人员当然意识到了这一点，并发明了"鸡蛋和笔记本电脑"难题，以防止新的聊天机器人不诚实地从互联网上复制答案）可知，研究人员要发明"鸡蛋和笔记本电脑"的谜题是为了阻止聊天机器人作弊。故选B。
（3）推理判断题。根据最后一段There's nthing entirely new under the sun.Edisn did nt invent the light bulb but imprved it.Mst s-called creatrs apply knwledge frm different fields t a prblem and arrive at a slutin.It's mre a matter f making relevant cnnectins than f inventing smething cmpletely new.If LLMs are indeed acquiring the ability t make relevant cnnectins，that wuld be a histric but discm frting develpment.（太阳底下没有全新的事物。爱迪生没有发明灯泡，但改进了它。大多数所谓的创造者将不同领域的知识应用于一个问题并得出解决方案。这更多的是建立相关的联系，而不是发明全新的东西。如果LLM真的获得了建立相关联系的能力，那将是一个历史性但令人不安的发展。）可知，作者在最后一段想表达一项发明是如何产生的。故选A。
（4）标题归纳题。根据最后一段Are LLMs truly riginal， .r are they just plagiarists （剽窃者）？The tw statements may nt be as different as they seem.（LLMs是真正的原创者还是只是剽窃者？这两种说法可能并不像看上去那么不同）结合文章主要介绍了一群计算机科学家通过一个"鸡蛋和笔记本"的问题，来测试新聊天机器人是否可以进行创作。可知，C选项"人工智能能创造出原创的东西吗？"最符合文章标题。故选C。
这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一群计算机科学家通过一个"鸡蛋和笔记本"的问题，来测试新聊天机器人是否可以进行创作。

近几年高考试题中的完形填空有新的变化，试题所涉及的知识面不断拓宽，综合难度不断提高。做完形填空首先要通读全文，了解大意。一篇完形填空的文章有许多空格，所以，必须先通读一至两遍，才能大概了解文章的内容。千万不要看一句，做一句。其次要逐句分析，前后一致。选择答案时，要考虑整个句子的内容，包括搭配、时态、语法等。答案全填完后，再通读一遍文章，检查是否通顺流畅，用词得当，意思正确。
36.【答案】【小题1】t cycle
【小题2】But
【小题3】had understd
【小题4】a
【小题5】when
【小题6】minrities
【小题7】traditinal
【小题8】definitely
【小题9】knwn
【小题10】ging
【解析】（1）考查动词不定式。句意：当我父母听说我计划独自骑自行车穿越中国西部时，他们劝我不要去。when引导的时间状语从句谓语为heard abut，此处应用非谓语动词作定语，修饰名词plan，plan后接动词不定式作定语。故填t cycle。
（2）考查连词。句意：但我没有改变主意。空后的I didn't change my mind与前一句为转折关系，应用连词but"但是"，表示转折，位于句首，首字母大写。故填But。
（3）考查动词时态。句意：尽管我在中国生活了六年，大部分时间都在北京，但我真的觉得我以前对这个国家知之甚少。understand"了解"。结合时间状语befre、谓语felt和句意可知，understand为动作felt like之前已经发生或完成了的动作，所以felt like后的宾语从句的时态用过去完成时。故填had understd。
（4）考查冠词。句意：所以我决定进行一个为期一个月的旅行来发现更多。此处泛指"一个为期一个月的旅行"，且ne-mnth是以辅音音素开头的，应用不定冠词a。故填a。
（5）考查定语从句。句意：我从来没有觉得自己处于危险之中。分析句子结构可知，本空引导限制性定语从句，先行词是时间名词a mment，定语从句中缺少时间状语，应用关系副词when引导。故填when。
（6）考查可数名词的复数。句意：我遇到了来自中国各地不同少数民族的人。由空前的different可知，应用名词minrity"少数民族"的复数形式，作介词frm的宾语。故填minrities。
（7）考查形容词。句意：我曾经参加过一个当地的婚礼，一个女孩甚至借给我一件传统的礼服。本空应填形容词traditinal"传统的"，作定语，修饰名词dress。故填traditinal。
（8）考查副词。句意：食物绝对是我旅途中的另一个亮点。本空应填副词definitely"肯定"，作状语，修饰系动词was。故填definitely。
（9）考查过去分词。句意：我最喜欢的是川菜，一个以辛辣和有趣的菜肴而闻名的省份。本句系动词为was，此处应用非谓语动词，且knw和它所修饰的词prvince之间是被动关系，应用过去分词作后置定语。故填knwn。
（10）考查动名词。句意：如果有人对在中国旅游感兴趣，我强烈建议骑自行车去！recmmend ding sth."建议做某事"，应用g的动名词形式，作宾语。故填ging。
这是一篇说明文。主要讲述了作者在中国骑自行车旅行的所见所闻。
做本题的关键是在理解短文的基础上，灵活运用所学的词汇和语法知识。因此，这就需要在平时的学习中，牢固掌握语言点及一些语法知识。
