Hangzhou is now in the spotlight as the main host of the 19th Asian Games. Tourists from various places have
gathered to this heavenly city to enjoy its slow life tempo and beautiful natural surroundings. Here are some
highlights of the city you can’t miss.
West Lake
The West Lake is definitely a place people can never miss when visiting Hangzhou. The lake itself covers 6 sq
km, and includes some of Hangzhou’s most famous scenic places.
There are “10 scenes of West Lake” and “10 new scenes”, but it is not necessary to make a checklist and walk
back and forth to look for these scenic spots. Just walk casually along the Nanshan and Beishan roads and the
causeways, take a ferry on the boat to the islands on the lake, or simply sit in a lakeside teahouse and enjoy the
picturesque views and the longjing (dragon well) tea.
Lingyin Temple
Lingyin, or the Temple of the Soul’s Retreat, has historically been the most renowned destination
The temple has undergone several restorations, the latest of which was in the 1970s at the urging of Premier
Zhou Enlai. Lingyin Temple is now considered one of the largest Buddhist complexes in the country.
Leifeng Pagoda
On the south of the West Lake, Leifeng Pagoda is considered the top scenic structure around West Lake due to
its stunning silhouette in the glow of evening.
For almost a thousand years the pagoda withstood fires and wars, but finally collapsed in 1924, due to the
removal of bricks as souvenirs by locals. Rebuilt on historic ruins, the pagoda was restored in 2000 in the style of
the Southern Dynasty (AD 420-589) and opened to the public in 2002. The 71.7m-tall pagoda is eight-sided with
five stories.
The Xixi wetland park
Xixi, located less than five kilometers from West Lake in the west of Hangzhou, is China’s first nationalwetland park. The area covers about 10 square kilometers and it has been around for more than 1,500 years,
although it was only recently revived to offer residents and visitors a green respite from the concrete of the city.
1.Where can you enjoy eat while admiring the picturesque scenery?
A.In the Xixi wetland park. B.In Leifeng Pagoda.
C.In Lingyin Temple. D.In the West Lake.
2.If you have faith in Buddha, which spot is most appealing to you?
A.West Lake B.Lingyin Temple C.Leifeng Pagoda D.The Xixi wetland park

It’s a windy day in Laguna San Ignacio, and the waves seem to come from all directions. My children and I are
riding on a 18-foot boat — small enough that we can reach down into the water if a gray whale swims up alongside.
And then we see what we’ve come for: a heart-shaped shower of water and a dark mass rushing below it. As
instructed, we splash (溅泼) the water to signal the huge whale, which turns out a mother with her baby. The baby
soon swims beneath our boat, appears to blow mist in my face, then lies onto its side like a 2-ton puppy. Leaning
down, I touched its skin gently. It feels electric. Also, a bit like petting a hard-boiled egg.
San Ignacio is one of very few places where a person can pet a whale. The whales come each year to give birth
and to mate. If you’re lucky, you can shake hands with a leatheryfin (鳍) or even plant a kiss on a cold, salty cheek.
I usually worry about such interactions, because wild creatures can become deeply stressed by human contact. But
boat numbers are strictly limited. And any whale that approaches a boat does so on its own terms. Like that baby
whale, we see him a few times, and he seems to like being petted and splashed.”
So we are two species, connecting through touch, but also through eye contact. Whalers used to call gray
whales “devil fish” because these attractive creatures turn violent when threatened. That makes it feel even more of
a blessing when, on our third day there, a large mama whale approaches the boat. I’m splashing when I feel her
nose press up into my hand. Though she’s wiser and apparently more alert than her child, she still decides to trust
us.
4.Which of the following statements is true?
A.The writer was on a whale-touching trip.
B.The writer’s boat went down with a huge wave.C.The baby whale splashed water all over the writer.
D.The mother whale’s skin felt as hard as a boiled egg.
5.What does the phrase “does so on its own terms” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.is mad with too many visitors.
B.is ready for hands-on attention.
C.is restricted in swimming routes.
D.is enclosed in their safety zones.
6.From what do Gray whales get the name of “devil fish”?
A.strange appearance B.inborn violence
C.fierceness in danger D.surprisingly enormous size
7.What’ s the writer’s implied purpose in the passage?
A.To popularize the knowledge of whales.
B.To share an experience of the sea voyage.
C.To show admiration for whales’ motherhood.
D.To advocate harmony between man and nature.
C
Artificial intelligence has become increasingly common in recent years, appearing in various apps and tools.
ChatGPT is a chatbot developed by Open AI and designed to converse (对话) with people, generate text and
answer complicated questions. The name ChatGPT stands for “Generative Pre-trained Transformer”, which
indicates its ability to use pre-training models to examine the connections between all elements of a data
sequence(序列), that is, using a model from one machine learning assignment to train another model, much similar
to how people use previously learned information when learning something new. ChatGPT offers a substantial
amount of text to use for pre-training.
ChatGPT was launched in November 2022, and the developer trained it to respond to follow-up questions,
challenge incorrectness and admit mistakes. ChatGPT is also a generative AI tool that can create various types of
content, including short stories, doctorate theses (论文), term papers, menus and more.
ChatGPT makes it easier and faster for bloggers or content creators to produce high-quality text. It can answer
complicated questions conversationally, using innovative technology to learn what humans mean when asking
questions. Many people are impressed with its human-like responses, making it an efficient tool for generating
written content.ChatGPT excels at language and information tasks. It has some restrictions built in that prevent it from
providing toxic reactions that are against the right values. It’s also designed to ignore improper requests. While the
program provided pretty decent responses to intellectual questions, it cannot provide definitive answers to spiritual
questions. Its answers are not always accurate, as it is trained to give human-feeling responses rather than
necessarily being correct.
Though AI tools can assist and enhance our abilities, we must avoid becoming too dependent on them, as this
dependence can cost us our thinking abilities, critical skills and intellectual curiosity, which are vitally important for
lifelong learning and growth. Thus, despite many advantages of ChatGPT, we must use it wisely to avoid losing
crucial skills and cognitive abilities.
8.What is ChatGPT?
A.An AI tool designed for text editing.
B.A chatbot that can replace human brain.
C.A program generating human-like responses.
D.A pre-trained model focused on language learning.
9.What does the underlined word “toxic” mean in paragraph 4?
A.Beneficial. B.Complicated. C.Harmful. D.Precise.
10.What is the problem with ChatGPT?
A.It cannot respond rapidly enough.
B.The inbuilt restrictions may misguide users.
C.It fails to provide convincing academic replies.
D.Overreliance on it may weaken some essential human abilities.
11.Where is the text probably taken from?
A.A news report. B.A sci-tech magazine.
C.An academic paper. D.A research document.

New research led by the University of Colorado Boulder has found the engineering secrets behind what makes
fish fins (鱼鳍) so strong yet flexible. The team’s findings could one day lead to new designs for airplane wings
that change their shape with the push of a button.
Francois Barthelat, senior author of the study, noted that fins can “do wonders” even though they don’t contain
a single muscle. “A fin is made of many ways,” said Barthelat. “Each of those rays can be controlled individuallyjust like your fingers, but there are 20 or 30 rays in each fin.”
Barthelat and his colleagues used a range of approaches, including computer simulations and 3D-printed
materials, to dive deep into the secrets of the structures. They reported that the key to fish fins may lie in their
unique design. Each ray in a fin is made up of multiple segments (段) of a hard material that lie on top of much
softer collagen (胶原), making rays the perfect balance between flexibility and strength.
He and his team decided to use computer simulations to examine the mechanical functions of fins. They
discovered that those segments can make all the difference.
“Pretend for a moment,” Barthelat explained, “that fish fins are entirely made up of collagen. They could bend
easily, but wouldn’t give fish much pulling force in the water. Rays made up of solid materials would have the
opposite problem — they’d be too hard.”
The researchers further tested the theory by using a 3D printer to produce model fish fins made from plastic,
some with hinges (铰链) built in and some without. The team found that the segmented design provided better
combinations of strength and flexibility.
“We like to pick up where the biologists and zoologists have left off, using our background in the mechanics
of materials to further our understanding of the amazing characteristics of the natural world,” Barthelat said.
12.Which of the following can describe the new research according to the first paragraph?
A.Beneficial B.Traditional. C.Typical. D.Commercial.
13.Why are fingers mentioned in Paragraph 2?
A.To show the number of rays in a fish fin.
B.To show rays of fish fins can work individually.
C.To show the shape of rays in fish fins.
D.To show rays of fish fins can do.
14.What has an important effect on the mechanical functions of fish fins?
A.The amount of collagen.
B.The combination of hard materials and collagen.
C.The water fish live in.
D.The muscle in fish fins.
15.What may happen if fish fins are completely made of collagen according to the text?
A.Fish can’t bend. B.Fish can’t live in the water.
C.Fish can’t keep balance. D.Fish can’t swim fast.

Nowadays many people realize kitchen gardening helps reduce their carbon emissions (排放) and save them
hard-earned cash and choose to grow their own food. 16
Select your garden location. You don’t need a plot of land to grow your own food. You can grow inside or
outside. 17 But wherever you’re planting, what you need is good sun exposure. Many plants, especially
fruit trees, require six hours of full sun during the day.
Select your plants. After that, you’re ready to choose which plants will work best for your garden. If you’ve
got a yard, you have your choice of beans, root vegetables, fruit trees, berries, and herbs. 18 Consider your
container size when choosing your plants. A limited space garden can support peppers, herbs, and greens grown in
small containers. Beans and tomatoes, on the other hand, need containers at least two feet in diameter.
Choose good soil. If your yard garden has quality soil, you can plant food in it. Otherwise, you may choose
purchased soil in raised beds. You’ll see a difference when using high-end organic soil.
19 Instead of feeding your plants a little water all the time, deep and infrequent watering encourages
root growth. However, if you live in a particularly hot climate, you may still have to water up to twice daily if the
top two inches of soil are dry.
Enjoy your harvest. Nothing tastes better than the food you grew yourself, and after all your hard work
gardening, you deserve a celebration. 20 Maybe you’ll inspire another gardener to take up the tool.
A.Feed your plants nutrients.
B.Water deeply and infrequently.
C.Invite some friends over for dinner.
D.Of course, whether to celebrate is up to you.
E.So we designed this guide to help you grow your own food.
F.Even a well-lit window can grow vegetables in small containers.
G.Container gardeners often favor tomatoes, onions, and small fruit trees.

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。
“Tiki!”I yelled.
Our little white dog Tiki had slipped out the door earlier that evening while I was carrying groceries into the
house. Now I was searching the neighborhood with my seven-year-old son, Jordan, and my three-year-old daughter,
Julia, trying to find him.
The last few months had been difficult. After losing my husband, I could no longer afford our house in New
York. The kids and I moved in northern Indiana, 150 miles away from the city. Change was easier for Julia at her
age, but Jordan missed his friends and his old school. Losing his childhood dog was the last thing he needed.
We called out Tiki’s name and knocked on neighbors’ doors until it was too dark to see. We were forced to
return home empty-handed.“Mom, it’s all new here. What if Tiki can’t find our house?” asked Jordan.
“It’s okay,”I said. “He’s wearing his collar and dog tags, so if someone finds him, they’ll call me, and we’ll get
him back. “It was at that moment that I realized with horror that Tiki’s tags listed our address and phone number in
New York. If someone found him, they’d have no way to reach me.
I kept asking around to see if anyone had spotted him. But after two weeks, I was beginning to lose hope.
The kids were upset, especially Jordan. One afternoon, I found him crying in his room. “At school, we had to
write about our wishes,” he said. “I wrote, ‘I wish my dog would come home.’ Mrs. Rush hung our papers in the
hallway (走廊). Every time I see my paper, I feel sad.” My heart broke for him.
So later that week, when he put on an old T-shirt from his old school back in New York, something told me to
just let him do it. When he got home that afternoon, he told me the school librarian had asked him about his T-shirt.
“I told him that we just moved here from Now York,” said Jordan.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The next day, the school librarian called to tell that his grown daughter found a dog a few weeks ago.
