Sirine Jahangir has been singing, writing and performing music since she was a little girl. She lost all her vision in

one eye by the time she turned 5, so now the teen uses her gift “as a way to —not escape, but to help me through.” Not

only did her passion get her through some difficult times, but when she was 14 it also brought her to the “Britain’s Got

Talent” stage, where she impressed everyone with her performance.

Sirine has a rare condition that left her completely blind by the time she was 10 years old. While her parents and

doctors have tried to find treatments for her, there isn’t much they can do. So her parents focused on helping her adjust

to her new life, which was when her dad said she was first introduced to music. “I remember one day, we were driving

in the car. This is about when she was getting to the stage where she couldn’t look out the window anymore to see things,

and I didn’t know what to do. I just put the music on really loud. She started singing in the car, and she was so happy.

And then she just found happiness every time I put it on,” her father said.

It didn’t take long for them to realize Sirine has tremendous talent. When she appeared on “Britain’s Got Talent”,

she told everyone just how much her passion means to her. “I guess music is my vision,” she said. “That’s just what I

live by, and music is my thing.” Then she headed over to the piano, where she played the piano and sang beautifully

enough to bring the audience to tears! Unsurprisingly to everyone but Sirine, all four judges voted her into the next

round of the competition!

Afterward, she said, “I can’t even say it’s a dream come true, because I didn’t even dream of it at I

never thought that would be realistic in my life.”

24. What helped Sirine get through her difficult times?

A. Britain’s Got Talent.

C. Support from her parents and doctors.

25. What can we learn from the passage?

A. Sirine displayed all her passion on stage.

B. Sirine lost her sight totally at the age of five.

C. Her parents focused on treatments all the way.

D. Sirine was not surprised at the judges’ decision.

26. What does the underlined “it” refer to in the last third paragraph?

A. Music. B. Clothes. C. Talent. D. Microphone.

27. Which of the following would be the best title for the story?

A. Never give up your dream. B. Music lights up the world.

B. Her passion for music.

D. Encouragement from four judges.

C. True happiness lies in competition. D. Life can be too good to be true.

C

I am standing next to a five-year old girl in Pormpuraaw, a small Aboriginal (土著的) community in northern

Australia. When I ask her to point north, she points precisely and without hesitation. My compass says she is right. Later,

back in a lecture hall at Stanford University, I make the same request of an audience of excellent professors. Many

refuse; they do not know the answer.

A five-year-old in one culture can do something with ease that great scientists in other cultures struggle with. This

is a big difference in cognitive (认知的) ability. What could explain it? The surprising answer, it turns out, may be

language.

Around the world people communicate with one another using a variety of languages— 7,000 or so all told— and

each language requires very different things from its speakers. For example, suppose I want to tell you that I saw Uncle

Vanya on 42nd Street. In Mian, a language spoken in Papua New Guinea, the verb I used would reveal whether the

event happened just now, yesterday or in the distant past, whereas in Indonesia, the verb wouldn’t even give away

whether it had already happened or was still coming up. In Russian, the verb would reveal my gender.

Research in my lab and in many others has been uncovering how language shapes even the most basic concept of

human experience: space, time, and relationships to others. Unlike English, the language spoken in Pormpuraaw does

not use relative spatial terms such as left and right. Rather speakers talk in terms of absolute directions. Of course, in

English we also use direction terms but only for large spatial scales (标度). We would not say, for example, “They set

the salad forks southeast of the dinner forks!” But in Pormpuraaw, absolute directions are used at all scales. This means

one ends up saying things like “the cup is southeast of the plate” or “the boy standing to the south of Mary is my brother.”

28. How does the author mainly explain the role language plays in the different cognition?

A. By giving numbers.

C. By describing personal experiences.

A. Her training in Stanford University.

C. The language she speaks.

A. The time.

A. Favorable.

B. The gender.

B. Cautious.

B. By making comparisons.

D. By presenting different viewpoints.

B. The challenge from professors.

D. The English culture she absorbs.

C. The space.

C. Negative.

D

In the book Consciousness Explained, the cognitive scientist Daniel Dennett describes a kind of fish, which

wanders through the sea looking for a suitable rock to make its home for life. On finding one, the fish no longer needs

its brain and eats it. Humanity is unlikely to adopt such an eating habit but there is a worrying trend that people are

dumping themselves down by becoming overly dependent on “intelligent” machines, especially when ChatGPT comes

out.

Since its launch in November 2022, ChatGPT has drawn 1 million people to register during the first week. Its allure

is obvious: ChatGPT can produce jokes, write undergraduate essays and create computer code from a short writing

D. The event.

D. Objective.

29. What contributes to the girl’s success in pointing the direction?

30. What can be shown from the verb used in the language Mian?

31. What is the author’s attitude towards the language spoken in Pormpuraaw?

prompt (提示).

But this is a false impression. Computers have become more capable but they lack genuine thinking, developed in

humans through constant social practices. ChatGPT does not know what it is doing; it is unable to say how or why it

produced a response; and cannot tell if it is making sense. So why all the fuss’ Google’s new AI-powered search tool,

Bard was released in March 2023, making its ambition obvious in its promotional video. The profit-driven competition

to fill our daily lives with artificial intelligence is becoming increasingly fierce.

Humans have a long track of turning a blind eye to the risks of new breakthroughs. Web companies want to draw

their users to think extremely highly of their AI tools, encouraging humanity to think them far beyond human’s cognitive

competence. As we know, the rise of civilization through art and agriculture contributes mostly to the remarkable human

mental powers. No one knows what will happen to such technologies if the software engineers of the future make

themselves become software programs. Maybe the danger is not machines being treated like humans, but humans being

treated like machines.

32. Why does the author mention “the fish” in the first paragraph?

A. To stress the importance of intelligent machines.

B. To introduce a new kind of eating habit in animals.

C. To compare with human’s unwillingness to think.

D. To praise the excellence of human thinking ability.

33. What does the underlined word “allure” mean in the second paragraph?

A. Target. B. Attraction. C. Setting D. Access.

34. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?

A. Human beings are being treated like machines.

B. Money matters much behind the AI competition.

C. Computers are skilled at completing cognitive tasks.

D. People should trust software more than themselves.

35. What does the text mainly talk about?

A. ChatGPT has both benefits and risks.

B. Human depends overly on intelligent tools.

C. More intelligent technology is always better.

D. Human’s cognitive competence is irreplaceable.

When I was a child, my grandparents bought a second home in Arkansas and would bring me there every single

summer. I would spend a lot of time outside. 36 We would collect cool-looking rocks and refill the

hummingbird feeders. Almost every afternoon we would drive down to Bull Shoals lake, the “swimming hole,” and

take a swim.

I always remember my grandparents calling me over to the window when a deer family was in the yard or a few

hummingbirds were at the feeders so that I could watch them. 37 . I remember repeating to myself “oak trees,

dogwood trees, maple trees” over and over so that I could impress him by remembering. I would search around the yard,

and if I was lucky I would find a turtle. If I did find a turtle I would go to get my grandfather so that he could pick it up

and put it in the kiddy pool for me to observe for a few minutes. 38 After I finished observing the turtle, my

grandfather would pick it back up and return it to the bush I found it in. I would watch in amazement as it slowly stuck

its legs out and crawled back under.

39 It was quiet and full of interesting natural things I never got to see in Illinois. I could definitely tell that

my grandparents had an appreciation for nature as well. They disturb the land around them as little as possible and didn’t

see it as annoyance, rather a beautiful view.

I think we should take the time to appreciate and observe the natural world around us. When we do this, we find

that it brings us happiness and has a great value beyond just that of resources. Preservation of the natural world is

important as we are dependent upon it for life. 40

A. I was always amazed by creatures like this.

B. I followed my grandfather while he did yard work.

C. I always felt very at peace at my grandparents’ home

D. Our experiences with nature have shaped my life values.

E. Walking in the forest always makes me feel relaxed and energetic.

F. My grandfather taught me the names of different trees in the yard.

G. We can’t harm it at such a rate where it will never return to what it once was.

“Lion hair! Lion hair! Hahahaha!”

It wasn’t the first time she’d been called Lion hair. Rani’s cheeks burned and tears stung her eyes. She hurriedly

jumped off the school bus and landed in a ditch (沟) of muddy rainwater.

As she got back into her house, Rani’s cousins, Amit and Sumit, came over, mocked (嘲笑) her hair as a bird’s nest

and talked about how many bird eggs there were in it. Ignoring it, her mother was cooking dinner in the kitchen.

Before she could think, Rani had fled out of the house and made her way down a narrow path into a clearing. “I

hate my hair!” She screamed as tears of rage and shame streamed down her cheeks.

Before long, she fell asleep because of tiredness.

Rani woke up to Mama’s anxious calls, but she hugged herself close and promised herself not to go home in that

Mama let Amit and Sumit make fun of her.

Alone, she felt very hungry and frightened as dusk fell. Suddenly, someone or something was making its way into

the clearing. Rani froze. Frightened a lot, she even opened her mouth to scream.

It was Papa. Relief and joy flooded through Rani. She threw her arms around Papa and clung to him.

With an obvious relief, Papa told her that everyone had been looking all over the place for her and urged her to go

home. Rani shook her head and cried, telling Papa everything about her damning hair and that she decided to quit the

inter-school speech competition on Monday. Scanning Rani’s face, Papa replied that he promised to give those boys and

cousins a heavy lesson but fleeing (逃避) was not how they solved problems. Meanwhile, he added that Rani was never

one to shy away from a challenge.

With these comforting words and in Papa’s warm arms, she entered home. It’s time for dinner, and Mama’s waiting

for them. Rani’s favorite dish! Yummy! The delicious food cooked by mom satisfied and pleased her a lot. After dinner,

Rani rested herself next to Papa and began to sleep.

1.续写词数应为150左右；

A Poster Design Contest on Wildlife Protection

Last we held a poster design contest on wildlife protection among Grade I students. Now let me briefly introduce

some information here.

As is known to all, the more biodiversity there is in an ecosystem, the more successful and healthy it is. Every

animal has its place in the balance of nature. Destroying one species can do damage to the delicate ecosystem,

influencing the survival of human beings, so it’s high time we made concerted efforts to protect their habitats and

establish nature reserves. The corresponding endangered species laws are to be made and awareness of protecting

wildlife is to be raised.
