A year ago, I started my journey to the School of the Art Institute of Chicago（SAIC）, full of dreams and
hopes. I was grateful to my father for he always supported me, his only son, on my art journey. I was excited about
the new life ahead and started packing my bags weeks before leaving.
However, when I actually began this journey, everything was different from what I expected. The first few
weeks were the hardest time of my life. Every night, I found it hard to sleep because I missed home so much. I
didn’t know how to deal with these heavy feelings.
To keep myself busy, I joined many campus activities and looked for internship opportunities. In my free time,
I tried new hobbies like photography and music. I tried to make each day interesting so that I wouldn’t think about
how lonely I felt.
Soon, I started to feel very stressed and even had trouble sleeping. Finally, I decided to get help from a
counselor (顾问). With his help, I realized that I needed to find a healthy way to deal with my emotions instead of
avoiding them. I started learning meditation and breathing exercises, which helped me relax and focus again. I
understood that I needed to find a balance between my studies and my emotional needs.
How could I find this balance? I told myself that I had the ability to overcome these problems. I decided to be
more active in social activities while staying focused on my studies. My first semester at college finally ended, and
I not only achieved excellent academic results but also made many new friends. This is why I want to share my
story — I hope to help other students realize that they are not alone when facing challenges and that it is always
possible to find ways to overcome difficulties.

A new United Nations (UN) report says one-fifth of the world’s migratory (迁徙的) animals are at risk of
disappearing. Animals that migrate move from one area to another at different times of the year.
The threats (威胁) the animals face include habitat loss, illegal hunting, pollution and natural disasters like
climate change. Many kinds of migratory animals, including songbirds, sea turtles, whales, sharks and others, move
to different environments as the seasons change.
The UN report says about 44 percent of migratory species (物种) around the world are decreasing in
population. In addition, about one in five of 1,200 species watched by the UN are at risk of becoming endangered,
or completely disappearing.
These are species that move around the globe. They move to feed and breed and also need sites to stop along
the way. Any habitat loss or other threats during their trips can make the animal populations fall. “Migration is
important to some species. If you cut the migration, you’re going to kill the species,” said an expert.
The researchers examined existing data, including information from the International Union for Conservation
of Nature’s Red List of Threatened Species. The list identifies wildlife across the world facing threats at present.
The report was presented at a meeting of the UN’s Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of
Wild Animals in Samarkand, Uzbekistan. Attendees of the gathering are examining suggestions for conservation
measures. They are also working to identify new species of concern. Susan Lieberman is vice president of the
international policy at the Wildlife Conservation Society, a non-governmental organization. She said, “One country
alone cannot save any of these species.”The report found habitat loss affected up to 75 percent of the species studied. The report said this shows a big
need for more connectivity between separated ecosystems. It pushes governments to take steps to avoid harming
habitats and migration paths when building dams, pipelines or wind power equipment.
8. What does the UN report mainly show?
A. Most animals are disappearing. B. Migratory species are increasing.
.
C Most species face natural disasters. D. Migratory animals face some threats.
9. What does migration mean to some species according to the expert in paragraph 4?
A. A matter of life and death. B. Losing their competitors.
C. A lack of food and movement. D. Destroying their habitats.
10. What can we infer from Susan Lieberman’s words in paragraph 6?
A. It is difficult to identify migratory animals.
B. It is impossible to protect migratory animals.
C. Rescuing migratory species depends on policies.
D. Rescuing migratory species requires global efforts.
11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. Human Activities Are Affecting Wildlife
B. International Meetings Push Animal Protection
C. Some Migratory Animals Are at Risk of Dying Out
D. Many More Animals Are Regarded as Endangered Species
D
A newspaper company in the US says it will start using artificial intelligence (人工智能) or AI technology to
write short stories. The company recently announced a plan to use generative AI to add short pieces of information
to the top of each story. The company adds it will test the system later this year. Human writers and editors will
look at what the technology produces and decide whether it meets the company’s standards for publishing.
Renn Turiano is a top official of the newspaper company. He explained that AI technology can be useful to
reduce boring jobs performed by journalists (新闻工作者). He noted that the newspaper company will test its AI
system slowly before it is permanently used.
Some news organizations launched (推出) the technology-based materials too quickly and experienced
,
problems. This included cases where AI systems created errors in stories. Turiano said “We’re not making
that mistake.”
Earlier this year, two publishers — Men’s Journal and CNET — had problems with AI-created materials. In
January, CNET reported that a number of stories written by AI had appeared on its website without being checkedby humans. Many of the stories contained mistakes. In February, Men’s Journal published some AI-created stories
on its website that also contained mistakes.
.
News organizations need to take their time with generative AI It is advised that they should not use such
tools to publish stories without any human involvement in the process.
The newspaper company recently announced that it was cutting 600 jobs. Some of the journalists still working
there worry that AI will one day replace them. In early June, hundreds of the workers left their jobs for a short time
to protest job cuts and low pay. The labor group that represents some of the journalists says the newspaper
company’s use of generative AI is one of the main concerns. However, the newspaper company stresses the
technology will not replace humans. Instead, it is designed to help an increasing number of employees be more
effective and give them more time to do other valuable work. Journalists from the USA Today publication are
examining test stories written by its generative AI system.
12. What does the underlined phrase “generative AI” in paragraph 1 refer to?
A. AI that can produce information. B. AI that can keep editors company.
C. AI that can look after human writers. D. AI that can monitor a company’s system.
13. Why does the newspaper company develop its AI?
A. To test humans’ intelligence. B. To solve some math problems.
C. To reduce the journalists’ workloads. D. To manage some news organizations.
14. Why does the author mention Men’s Journal and CNET?
A. To show AI is a slow learner. B. To show AI can make mistakes.
C. To show AI is a perfect writing tool. D. To show AI can work as well as humans.
15. What does the newspaper company expect of the AI technology?
A. It will cut more jobs. B. It will replace human workers.
C. It will benefit more employees. D. It will help increase journalists’ pay.

A middle school student named Jim found $12,000 in a parking lot outside a store and returned it to its rightful
owner. This act of honesty led to a series of positive events, making kindness more popular in the community.
One day after school, Jim was walking through the parking lot near the store in his community when he saw a
thick envelope lying on the ground. Curiously, he picked it up and noticed it was filled with money. Realizing
someone must have lost it, he decided to take it to the store’s customer service counter.
The store manager, Zoe, was a kind-hearted lady. Her store was also a charity store which sold clothes and
other goods given by customers to raise funds(资金)to help those in need. Surprised but impressed by Jim’shonesty, Zoe asked for Jim’s contact information and promised to tell him if the owner came forward. “Thank you,
Jim. You are an honest and responsible boy,” she said.
An hour later, Zoe called Jim. “The owner of the envelope has been found. She is very grateful and wants to
see you,” she informed Jim. Jim was relieved and happy to hear the good news. He went back to the store to meet
the owner.
The owner, Mrs Patel, was overjoyed to get her money back. “This money is meant to help my family during a
difficult time,” she explained. “You are a true hero, Jim. I can’t thank you enough.” She offered Jim a reward.
However, Jim refused and said, “I just did what I thought was right.” Mrs Patel was touched by his selflessness and
insisted on giving him something in return.
At that time, Zoe had an idea. “Why not give Jima gift card?” Zoe suggested. Finally, Mrs Patel and Jim
compromised (折中). Mrs Patel gave Jim a small gift card. Jim thanked Mrs Patel and left, feeling proud of his
decision.
