When the designer and typographer (排印工) Marcin Wichary chanced upon a tiny museum just outside
Barcelona five years ago, the experience tipped his interest in the history of technology into an obsession (痴迷) with
a very particular part of it: the keyboard.
“I have never seen so many typewriters under one roof. Not even close,” he shared on the Internet at the time.
“At this point, I literally have tears in my eyes. I’m not kidding. This feels like a miracle.”
He’d had a discovery while wandering through the exhibit: Each key on a keyboard has its own stories. And
these stories are not just about computing technology, but also about the people who designed, used, or otherwise
interacted with the keyboards.
Take the backspace key for example, he explains, “I like that the concept of backspace was originally just that
— a space going backward. We are used to it erasing now, but for a hundred years, erasing was its own incredibly
complex effort. You needed to master a Comet eraser, or Wite-Out, or strange correction tapes, and possibly all of the
above… or give up and start from scratch whenever you made a small mistake in typing.”
The deeper he researched, the more obsessive he became. Amazed that no comprehensive books existed on the
history of keyboards, he decided to create his own. When not working at his day job as the design leader for the
design software company Figma, he began producing Shift Happens, a two-volume, 1,216-page hardcover book —
and raised over $750,000 for the project on Kickstarter in March of 2023. Wichary was only a bit surprised by the
support and the keyboard’s wide appeal. As he points out. “It’s such a crucial device that occupies a lot of our waking
life.”
4. After the museum experience, Wichary’s interest in technology ________.
A. took off B. died out C. grew stronger D. became more concrete
第4页/共13页

A. The stories behind them. B. The wisdom of human.
C. The secret of the keyboards. D. The history of technology.
6. What does Wichary want to tell us about the backspace key in Paragraph 4?
A. It is a simple but powerful key.
B. It can be used to move back one space.
C. It is the result of long-term improvement.
.
D It allows people to make mistakes when typing.
7. Why did Wichary write his own book?
A. To fill a gap. B. To get famous. C. To make money. D. To record history.

Artificial intelligence (AI) has been increasingly good at fooling people. A series of photos showing former US
president Donald Trump being aggressively arrested by police have caught people’s attention. They were fake but
very convincing.
Created by the AI program Midjourney, the photos were highly realistic, from the characters’ movements to the
surroundings. However, many details can give away the fact that they are made by AI. The Washington Post’s
technology writer Shira Ovide shared her tips. The main idea is to spot the problems-anything that would look strange
in a photo.
AI software has a history of generating human hands incorrectly. It sometimes can create hands with more than
five fingers. This is because AI isn’t sure what a “hand” exactly is, according to Popular Science. The data AI uses
to learn often show hands and fingers in various gestures, which can be very confusing for AI.
AI-generated images also usually contain details that are against reality. To spot this, focus on items like
accessories. For example, people in an image may be missing earrings or one part of their sunglasses. If there’s text
in an image, such as a newspaper or poster, it’s usually garbled (篡改), even though the text may look realistic from
a distance.
Another thing AI is terrible at handling is the background. If there’s a crowd in the image, people’s faces in the
background are usually blurry — or they don’t have faces at all!
The development of AI-generated art also raises alarm bells about how these fake images could be used to spread
misinformation. “I think misinformation is going to hit an all-time high,” Jamie Cohen, a digital culture and AI expert
in the US, told New York Post. Generating an AI artwork is to “create reality”, Cohen argued, adding that, being able
to tell whether the work is real or not requires high media literacy (素养) skills. “The world may not be ready for
how realistic the images have become,” Shane Kittelson, a US researcher, told The Washington Post.

学科网（北京）股份有限公司8. Why are Donald Trump’s photos mentioned in the first paragraph?
A. To draw more people’s attention.
B. To make people convinced of the news.
.
C To show the AI-generated images were fake.
D. To prove that it’s easy for AI to cheat people.
9. Why does AI generate human hands incorrectly according to the text?
A. It is unable to recognize human hands.
B. The data it uses to learn contain errors.
C. It doesn’t fully understand human hands.
D. It has insufficient data about human hands.
10. Which of the following will Jamie Cohen agree with?
A. AI artworks may not be reflective of true creativity.
B. It’s high time to address the risks posed by AI works.
C. AI artworks will replace traditional art forms in the future.
D. Detecting real art demands strong media literacy competence.
11. What is mainly talked about in the text?
A. AI is tricking people with highly realistic photos.
B. AI-generated art make people worried about fake images.
C. AI is terrible at handling the background.
D. The world may not be ready for AI.

Millions of us may lose sleep as most states switch to DST, Daylight Saving Time (夏令时) and put the clocks
forward by one hour. The time change brings darker mornings and extends light in the evening.
Some policymakers want to make DST permanent to avoid the disturbance of constant switches. Marco Rubio,
a government officer, says the formality of changing our clocks twice a year makes no sense. He points to the potential
economic benefits DST brings. The key argument is that more light in the evening can stimulate people to go out and
that translates into more people shopping in convenience stores for everything from water to sports drinks. Thus,
there is a boom in spending.
However, the health impacts have been more complicated to figure out. DST increases evening exposure to
light, which can make it harder to fall asleep at night. So in recent years, the time change has been reported to be
linked to an increase in atrial fibrillation, a type of heart disease, perhaps due to the sleep disorder. Besides, evidences
have linked the transition to an increase in attention problems and mood disorders.
“I am very surprised,” says Jay Chudow, a cardiologist. “It’s just a one-hour change, but this shows how sensitive
第6页/共13页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司our bodies maybe to internal clock (生物钟) interruption.” Actually humans’ internal clock is closely linked to the
rising and setting of the sun. He emphasizes that restoring permanent Year-Round Standard Time (YRST) is the best
option for our health and well-being, for the natural daily cycle of light and darkness is really the most powerful
timing reminder that we have to match our body clock with.
So it seems there’s a divide between what’s likely best for our health and what may be good for the economy.
Due to the economic burden and tight budget, it is not hard to guess which one will be given higher priority among
policymakers this year.
12. What benefit does DST bring?
A. Boosting consumption. B. Lengthening daytime.
C. Avoiding constant switches. D. Brightening the mornings.
13. What does the underlined word “transition” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Impact. B. Exposure. C. Disorder. D. Change.
14. What does Jay think of DST?
A. It helps restore energy. B. It raises health concerns.
C. It is a timing reminder. D. It matches humans’ body clock.
15. What will the policymakers probably do this year?
A. Choose DST. B. Adopt YRST.
C. Tighten the economy. D. Increase funds on healthcare.

extensively exposes you to new ideas and knowledge, improves your concentration and memory, and enhances your
creativity and critical thinking skills.
Despite the importance of reading, many students today don’t have a good habit of reading. There are a few
reasons for this: lack of time and motivation, abundance of digital distractions and failure to stick to reading. However,
these challenges can be overcome with your conscious efforts.
First, you need to make time for reading by limiting time spent on social media or other leisure activities. Start
with just 15—30 minutes a day of reading and you can work your way up to longer sessions.____17____Many
libraries also have digital book options if you prefer e-readers or audiobooks.

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Living in the shadow of my two elder sisters at college who already had their lives planned out since they were
little, I was always undecided about everything. As a teenager, I was fickle (反复无常的). I would like one thing
for a week and then hate it the next. But I was constantly searching for the beginning of the rainbow. Changing my
dream from a vet to an astronaut, I thought there were various options available to me. However, my parents would
shake their heads and repeatedly asked me such questions as, “Why can’t you be more like your sisters? What are
you going to do with your life? Aren’t you interested in anything at all?” After a couple of shrugs (耸肩), my parents
usually stopped talking. I was not sure if they gave up or anticipated my dull reactions. I often responded, “I couldn’t
answer all of your questions now.”
Actually, my parents just had high expectations that never seemed to be fulfilled. Plus, like other parents, they
just wanted to give the best to me and expected me to achieve success. The arguments with my parents seemed
childish. One day, my mother made her thoughts clear, “Your grades aren’t high enough. No schools are going to
want you, dear. We didn’t pay so much money for nothing.” Hesitating for a while, I said, “No matter what you say,
I believe I will enter a good college.” Still, I let my emotions control myself.
Certainly, I had never planned not to go to college. After another debate with my mom, I decided to make a

I knew it was a crucial year at high school. Releasing my feelings, I began to collect all the knowledge I had
learned and review it with all my heart. I didn’t argue with my parents any more, but instead turned to my sisters for
help and tried my best to study. Finally, I took the national college entrance examination with ease and confidence.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
