Scientists have discovered that artificial intelligence (AI) can be used to predict the weather more

perform tasks that usually require human intelligence.
The usual way to 37 the weather nowadays is using data (information that is stored
by a computer). It comes from places including weather satellites and special weather balloons.
Supercomputers use the data to do calculations, but this takes many hours to produce 38 .
Several companies have developed AI models that can quickly predict future weather and 3 9

One of the AI models is called GraphCast. It can accurately predict the weather six hours into
the future. The system can be 40 on an office computer and can make predictions in minutes. AI
probably won’t take the place of 41 systems, but will be used together with them. That’s
because AI still relies on the data collected by them.
Scientists have said that AI can be used for things that older 42 find difficult, such as
predicting rainfall in the near future. It can also help to predict 43 weather, like typhoons.
This can give people more time to prepare or leave danger zones, and save more lives.

Seven hundred years before the Wright brothers began working on human flight, the Chinese
虹口区初三英语 本卷共9页 第6页had already mastered the skills—with kites.
Kites may have been invented in China as early as 500 B.C. While some kites were flown for
amusement, other kites played a key role for 65 . Chinese fishermen used kites to carry their
lines far out to sea. Sailors used them to measure the wind. Kites also were flown in ancient times to
create a link between earth and sky.
It was natural for ancient Chinese leaders to look to kites as
a way to protect their kingdom. General Huan Teng flew kites
during a night battle. When the kites flew overhead, the noise
they made 6 6 the enemy and drove them away. A pilot on a man-carrier
The greatest Chinese kites were the man-carriers. They were built from 6 7 bamboo
poles tied tightly together and then covered with silk, so they could support a man’s weight. The
kites were much larger than a small airplane. A pilot was fastened to the kite and 6 8 it by
grasping the bamboo poles. In times of peace, man-carrying kites put on air shows. Their flights
attracted huge crowds.
In the late 1200s, Italian explorer Marco Polo witnessed one of these shows. What he saw
made him feel 6 9 , and he wrote a detailed description of it. When he returned to Italy, most
people refused to believe him. They could not imagine that a person could fly.
Centuries passed before Europeans learned the 70 of flight—often by flying kites
made in China. One hundred years later, American inventors, including the Wright brothers, found
inspiration(灵感) for their flight experiments by flying kites first.
( ) 65. A) daily work B) special events C) art display D) scientific
tasks
( ) 66. A) interrupted B) reminded C) frightened D) directed
( ) 67. A) fresh B) strong C) colourful D) empty
( ) 68. A) released B) transported C) followed D) controlled

D. Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答问题) (12分)
I was seven when I went to Ireland to spend a
week with my grandparents. Grandma welcomed
me into their cottage by the sea. It was a strange feeling
since I hadn’t seen her for a long time.
The following day, I became ill with a cold. I wanted to explore
the cliffs, but had to stay in with Grandma. She was knitting (编
织).
“Jane, would you like to learn?”
“Yes.”
She gave me a pair of wooden needles and some soft blue-green wool, the
colour of all the seas and oceans. Wrapping her arms around me, Grandma taught
me the art of that ancient craft. I watched her move. Her piece was full of beautiful
patterns (图案). They were intricate (复杂精细的).
“How do you know what to do?”
“I have it in here,” she said, pointing to her head. “My mother taught me this
pattern. It tells a story of the sea and the people who live near it.”
“The cables are ropes and are wishes of safety for the fishermen off the
coasts. These zigzags remind me of the cliff paths I hope you’ll walk with me and
pick flowers along the way. And then my favourite is the diamond. It tells me to
treasure all in this life. With each stitch (一针), more love is added to the sweater,
and the knitter always knows for whom she is knitting.” I loved the way I
connected stitches together, one at a time, just like what Grandma said.
