Imagine your home is in the center of a big circle. Everything you need is a 10-minute walk
away. How 65 !
Recently, a group of architects decided to make this a reality. They are planning a
city with everything people need - including living areas, study rooms, offices and
entertainment areas
66 a 10-minute walk from home.
When explaining the aim of the city, Ben van Berkel, co-founder of Design Company, said
people’s daily life experience is the most important. The “10-minute city” can save time we
usually use to 67 elsewhere. “With time that is saved, more time is created,” Berkel said.
The idea of such a city is not new. In 2016, a researcher called Carlos Moreno put forward
the “15-minute city” idea. And it has become more popular nowadays since many people have
been forced to spend most of their time at home, with less 68 to go out of their
neighbourhood.
Paloma Ezzet, 16, is an 69 . She said that in the past, she liked to play soccer
or go dancing. But during a period of time, she had to give them up because no such
entertainment areas or facilities were in her neighbourhood. “It is lonely and frustrating,”
Ezzet said.
But not everyone likes the idea. Some people say it would further concentrate wealth in the
most popular areas, 70 high house prices.
So, with such risk, should people stop considering this idea? Maybe not. As Bobulescu said,
“The seeds are there, and they’ll grow little by little?”( ) 65. A) convenient B) important C) powerful D) satisfying

Beethoven (贝多芬) is famous for his nine symphonies (交响乐). Before
he died, he began a new symphony, but never f 71 it. Computer
scientists and musicians have now used artificial intelligence (AI人工智能)
to complete his 10th Symphony.
Beethoven was born over 250 years ago, yet his music is still played daily around the world.
Beethoven wrote many famous pieces of music, especially his nine symphonies. When
Beethoven died in 1827, he had some ideas for a 10th Symphony. But all that he left b 72
were some notes about the piece and a few “sketches” – short bits of written music.
In 2019, a special team of musicians, computer scientists, and historians was formed. Their
g 73 is to try to complete Beethoven’s 10th Symphony to celebrate his 250th birthday. The
team didn’t just want to complete the symphony, they wanted to come as close as possible to
producing the symphony that Beethoven meant to write. That’s where AI came in.
To t 74 an AI to help with the symphony, the team turned every piece of music that
Beethoven ever wrote into a form the computer could understand. In this way, the AI could look
for patterns in the way Beethoven wrote.
Other members of the team studied Beethoven’s notes and sketches, and worked to figure out
what Beethoven was p 75 to do.
One early test told the team they were on the r 76 track. They took a few minutes of
music created by the AI based on Beethoven’s sketches, and played it for Beethoven experts,
musicians, and reporters. No one could tell which parts had been written by Beethoven and which
parts the AI made up.
It took the team over two years to complete Beethoven’s 10th Symphony. Recently, it was
performed for the first time ever by the Beethoven Orchestra in Bonn, Germany.
So Beethoven now has a 10th Symphony. And t 77 Beethoven didn’t write it all, the
team feels sure that the music is very much like what he might have written.

If you are a hiker or a nature lover, you’ll enjoy reading A Walk in the Woods.It’s a true story, written as a comedy. The author is Bill Bryson. Bryson returned to the US
after 20 years in Britain and decided to get familiar with his native country by walking the
Appalachian Trail (阿巴拉契亚山道).
The trail, about 3,500 kilometers long, is popular with thousands of hikers. It goes from
Springer Mountain in Georgia to Mountain Katahdin in Maine. The story offers a landscape of
silent forests and beautiful lakes. But as a writer with comic genius, Bryson also finds
humor in the struggles that he and his old friend, Stephen Katz, went through.
Lots of silly things happen along the way. At the beginning, Bryson reads about the dangers
of the wild and stays awake for hours each night, because he is worried he will be killed by bears.
Later the two middle-aged men try to climb a mountain but get caught in a snowstorm. They get
lost more than once, but they always manage to find their way back to the trail. They also meet a
lot of strange people.
But the story is more than just a laugh-out-loud hike. Bryson also talks about acid rain (酸
雨), the hunting of birds, and damage to the ecosystem (生态系统). It ’ s a mix of the
silly and the serious , a fresh way of getting readers to actually care about the environmental
problems. As the website Book Browse said in a review, the book “will certainly become a
modern classic of travel literature”.
