二、阅读理解。阅读下列短文, 从每小题所给的A、B.C.D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
When you are tired of buildings, you can visit one of London’s many beautiful parks.
Hyde Park first opened to the people of London in the seventeenth century. It is not far from the shops of busy
Oxford Street, but it is nice and quiet. In the center is the lake called the Serpentine, and you can take a boat out on
the water.
There are usually a lot of people at Speakers’ Corner. Some people come here because they want to tell the
world important or interesting things—about the government, or science, or the church, or “the end of the world”.
They stand at the Corner, and call out to all the people around them. Other people stand and listen, and sometimes
laugh too.
Kensington Gardens is next to Hyde Park. Here you can see a statue（雕像） of Peter Pan, the famous boy in
the book Peter Pan by J. M. Baie. There is also a playground here, called the Diana, Princess of Wales Memorial
Playground. And the playground has lots of exciting things for children.
Regent’s Park is the home of London zoo. The zoo opened in 1828, and it has animals and birds from all over
the world. There is also a theatre in the park. On a summer’s evening, you can sit out and watch a play by
Shakespeare. Or you can see the park from the water—take a boat along the canal（运河） from Camden Lock to
Little Venice. In the summer, you can listen to music in the park.
St James’s Park is next to the Mall. It is a small park, but very beautiful, and it is the oldest of the royal（皇
家）parks. Lots of birds live on and around the lake in the centre of the park.
16. Where can you listen to an interesting speech?
A. In Hyde Park.
B. In Regent’s Park.

A hungry fly speeds through a forest. It smells nectar（花蜜）and lands on a green leaf. It starts to drink the
sweet liquid（液体）. Suddenly, the fly’s world turns green. The two sides of the leaf close against each other.
Long green teeth lock together around it. The fly has been caught by Venus flytrap. There is no way to run away
alive.
The Venus flytrap is perhaps the most famous killer plant. However, scientists have only recently started to
understand how it hunts（猎取）and eats. After years of study, plant scientist Alexander Volkov believes he now
knows the Venus flytrap’s secret. “This,” says Volkov, “is an electrical plant.”
There are three small hairs along each of the Venus flytrap’s two leaves. When an insect touches a hair, it
creates an electrical signal （信号） in the leaf. The insect can continue feeding—for now. But if it touches
another hair within 20 seconds, the leaf traps suddenly shut. This allows the plant to tell the difference between a
drop of water, for example, and a moving insect.
Once trapped, an insect has little chance of staying alive. Instead of nectar, the Venus flytrap now releases（释
放）a different liquid—one that slowly eats away at the insect. Ten days later, almost nothing is left. The plant’s
leaves open again, and the Venus flytrap is ready for its next meal.
19. What does “the fly’s world turns green” really mean?
A. The fly lands on a green leaf.
B. The fly speeds into the forest.

Once there was a manager who had a team of around 40 hardworking members. Everything seemed perfect
except for one thing: the group has a hard time communicating and sharing information with each other.
Then one day, the manager had an idea. He decided to take his group on a team outing and personally prepared
games of 3 rounds.
During the first round, the manager told everyone to blow a balloon and write their names without popping
（弄破） it. And soon the team members did it successfully.
After that, the leader told them to wait outside for the next round. When they were asked to enter the room again,
the members saw many more balloons without names all around the room.
The manager told his team to search for the balloon that belongs to them. The first three persons to bring him
the balloon will win, while those who pop the balloon will be out of the game.
15 minutes had already passed and not a single one was able to identify（确认）his balloon, and that’s why
the manager decided to go on to the third round instead. For the third round, the manager told his young group to
pick any balloons from the room and give it to the person whose name was on it.
Within a couple of minutes, everyone had his balloon with his own name. The manager went on to tell his
members how they were not able to search for their balloons in the second round because everyone was fixing too

much attention on his own target. However, in just a short time, they were able to do the third round because of the

ChatGPT, a new chatbot model! Developed by Open AI, has quickly become a hit all over the world because of
its powerful conversational abilities.
It can write emails, computer codes （代码）, songs, poems, and even short stories, and has passed a number
of tests within seconds. Experts around the world are discussing whether AI should be used in education. Some
schools have banned（禁止）it. The New York City’s Department of Education, for example, banned ChatGPT
from its public school networks, and some people are warning that it could encourage more students to cheat,
especially in exams.
Many more welcome this app, saying that, like most technologies in history, ChatGPT is a powerful tool for the
development of education.
Accepting AI as early as possible is a good choice. Schools should make preparations for including AI in their
teaching plans. They can start by offering AI courses, because by understanding how it works, they can make better
use of it. Besides, students with good knowledge of AI are more competitive when it comes to getting a job, as an
increasing number of jobs are being done by computer programs. AI powered education technologies can be used
5【淘宝搜索店铺：中小学教辅资源店 微信：mlxt2022】
to make the learning experience more suitable for each student. As for teachers, AI can free them from doing some
boring work so they can focus on their teaching.
Since we cannot avoid ChatGPT and other AI powered apps from entering the field of education, we should
make efforts to make sure they have a positive impact（积极影响）on society and the future of education. AI
helps to make learning much more interesting and enjoyable, but humans need to work very hard to win the race
with technology.
.
27 Why is ChatGPT banned in some schools?
A. It can offer help quickly.
B. Students may chat on it.
C. It can pass a test in seconds.
D. Students may cheat in exams.
28. In what way can AI help students?
A. It offers students a number of jobs.
B. It suits students’ personal learning.
C. It frees students from boring work.

30. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. AI apps still have a long way to go.
B. Humans will be left behind by technology.
C. The future of education depends on AI apps.
D. AI must be made good use of in education.

五、阅读表达。
阅读下面短文, 回答短文后面的各个小题。
In many countries of the world people are saying, “We must do something about our rubbish. We don’t want our
world to become one big landfill site （垃圾填埋场）.”
In Ireland the government were very worried about plastic bags so they decided to make people pay for them.
,
Since 2002 Irish people have been paying for the bags they take home from the shops. Of course they soon stopped
buying new bags and started taking bags with them when shopping.
Some countries have made even bigger changes. In 2006, the people of Zanzibar decided to stop making plastic
bags. They were worried the bags were killing fish and sea animals. They also said nobody could bring plastic bags
into the country. Soon there were no plastic bags in the country.
One of the most exciting recycling ideas is Freecycle. It has grown around the world.
People join a Freecycle group because they are looking for things or have things that they want to give to other
people. Perhaps they have a chair they do not need any more, or they want a camera. They leave a message on the
Internet to tell people what they want or what they are going to give. Nobody buys or sells anything—people give
things to other people who want them. It is a good idea because it recycles useful things.
,
Recycling is important and sometimes it is exciting too but it is only one part of the answer. Using less and
7【淘宝搜索店铺：中小学教辅资源店 微信：mlxt2022】
reusing are also important answers to the problem of rubbish.
51. What did the Ireland government ask people to do?
____________________
52. Why are there no plastic bags in Zanzibar?
