Twelve grams f mn arrived at Ferl’s labratry in an undecrated delivery bx. Ferl, a gardening expert at the University f Flrida, had waited
mre than a decade fr that mment. The small bx f dirt held sme f the last remaining unpened samples f mn dust, called reglith, cllected
by astrnauts n the lunar missins. Despite mnths f practice, he lifted the sample with trembling hands. “It’s freaky, scary stuff,” he says, “mean,
what happens if yu drp that?” Ferland his team were abut t becme the first researchers t grw plants in actual lunar sil.
The experiment was part f a lunar research which aims t send humans back t the mn later this decade in a mre sustainable way. Lnger
duratin stays require astrnauts t have a surce f fd. “All f human explratin has been driven by the ability t keep crews fed,” says Gil, a
researcher nt invlved in the study. And Ferl’s experiment ffers a significant first step in this jurney.
T test the mn sil, Ferl’s team divided the samples int 12 pts f 900 milligrams a piece and planted seeds in them. The seeds develped
successfully, but the plants had truble grwing healthy rts. The mn sil lacks imprtant micrbes, which play a significant rle in regulating plant
grwth hrmnes (激素), reducing envirnmental stress, and absrbing essential nutrients. Withut natural micrbes, the plants struggled t absrb
nutrients and manage stress. Additinally, the lack f water can cause the sil t becme difficult t wrk with.
The seedlings failed t grw strngly in reglith alne, but Ferl hpes t cntinue studying hw life might take hld in therwise lw-yield sil, with
an eye tward bth bsting humanity’s prspects ff the planet and imprving agriculture in lw-yield sils here at hme. “Mst f us are nt ging
t g t space,” he says, “But if we can engineer a way t prduce these kinds f crps in such an unfrgiving envirnment — like the lunar surface —
we can apply that t meet ur fd challenges in areas that just can’t grw fd anymre.”
【小题1】Hw did Ferl feel when receiving the bx?
A．mved and surprised.
B．scared but curius.
C．wrried but relieved.
D．cautius and nervus.
【小题2】Why did Ferl carry ut the experiment?
A．T feed the crew f his research team.
B．T ensure fd supply fr space explratin.
C．T prvide sustainable energy fr lunar missins.
D．T send the astrnauts back t the mn in a shrter time.
【小题3】What can be dne t imprve lunar crps prductin?

A．Adding micrbes and watering it prperly.
B．Dividing reglith equally and managing stress.
C．Grwing healthy rts and making reglith dry.
D．Chsing suitable seeds and regulating hrmnes.

A．The riginal gal f the study.
B．The limitatin f space farming

ChatGPT has been banned by schls in New Yrk and Ls Angeles, ut f cncern that students may use it t cheat n assignments. Despite these
cncerns, educatrs needn’t fear Al technlgy will transfrm educatin. Instead, it will help students take wnership f their studies and learn real-life
skills. Tday’s students need instructin that equips them with the skills f reasning, analysis and argumentatin rather than memrizing basic
infrmatin. And Al may be a useful tl that prmtes these skills.
Our experience with Al is perhaps best understd when cmpared with previus disturbances in educatin. When printed bks, fr example,
began t ccur in the mid-1400s, university prfessrs were filled with panic. At that time, lectures depended n a specific mdel: Prfessrs read frm
their hand-written texts, while students hurriedly cpied whatever they heard. If students culd simply buy the bks, teachers likely thught that they
wuldn’t need t cme t class. Yet in practice, printing had the ppsite effect: The number f universities explded alng with the ttal number f
bks. The new technlgy disturbed the mechanical aspect f educatin, but in ding s it allwed educatrs t refcus n higher-level skills.
Similarly, ChatGPT will replace the mechanical prductin f text, but it wn’t decrease the need fr higher-level skills. Pssessing the skills t ask
the right questins r state the right pinins will becme crucial as the prductin f a lgical essay becmes a simple task fr a machine. Al will serve
as a tl fr infrmatin gathering and mechanical rganizatin, but it wn’t remve the fundamental need fr critical thinking.Schls must
remember that educatin’s value isn’t a head full f facts but a persn with the skill t use these facts with the available tls t enhance their impact
n the wrld. Al is ne f these tls and, when used strategically, can imprve students’ learning and perfrmance in ways nt yet seen. Therefre, it is
essential fr schls t prvide an educatin that trains students in hw t use the available tls fr infrmatin. Unless they adapt quickly t the
changing trends f educatin, they will be left behind by rapid innvatin and change.
【小题1】What is the educatrs’ majr cncern abut Al technlgy?
A．The pssible changes in educatin.
B．Students’ grades f the assignments.
C．Students’ fear f technlgical refrm.
D．The lack f instructins and equipment.
【小题2】Why des the authr mentin the inventin f printing technlgy?
A．T justify the cncern f the prfessrs.
B．T shw the similar value f Al technlgy.
C．T clarify previus disturbances in educatin.
D．T highlight the influence f printing technlgy.
【小题3】What is the authr’s attitude tward the use f Al technlgy?
A．Dubtful.
B．Cncerned.
C．Critical.
D．Supprtive.
【小题4】What des the authr recmmend schls t d in the last paragraph?
A．Replace the mechanical prductin f text.
B．Design their curses based n Al technlgy.
C．Catch up with the quick evlutin f educatin.
D．Prvide a curse fcusing n infrmatin gathering.
