'Then she made this request of her 13-year-old daughter: "Can you help?Madison and Leigh ran to a neighbor's yard, where they found the boy's anxious mother and other panic-stricken adults surrounding a septic tank opening that stuck out a few inches above the lawn. It was 11 inches across-slightly wider than a basketball-with a hatch(盖 had been moved unnoticed. The boy, aged only two, had slipped in and was drowning in four feet of sewage(污水)inside the eight-feet-deep tank.The men and women-who minutes earlier had been enjoying a party in a nearby home when they heard the boy's mother scream-were dropping a rope into the tank, hoping the child would grab hold so they could pull him out.Madison quickly surveyed the situation. She was the only one who could fit through the small hole. Without hesitation, she got on her stomach next to the opening, placed her arms out in front of her, and told the adults, “Lower me in.”Inside the tank, it was dark and smelly. Madison stuck her arms into the sewage. In the process, she jammed her left wrist against a hidden pole, injuring the muscles in her wrist and arm so severely that the handwas made useless.Rather than tend to her injury, Madison skimmed the surface of the sewage, hoping to feel the boy.

One of the two engines on his 1975 Cessna had failed, and he was now on a collision course with one of the busiest highways in America-Interstate 405, just south of Los Angeles-and there was no stopping it.Driving south on the 405, near the airport's runway, was John Meffert. A fire department captain, Meffert, 47, was heading home from his shift. Then a low-flying plane caught his eye. After he took a second glance, a thought crossed his mind: "This plane's going to hit me, “Meffert told Fox8.He was right. The plane knocked into the center highway, popped up a few feet, and then hit the front of Meffert's SUV. It finally stopped after hitting the divider on the southbound side. Meffert pulled over. He was unhurt, so he turned his attention to the plane. He ran toward the smoke billowing from itand then he saw Frank's wife, Janan Pisano, pop her head up on the passenger side.By the time Meffert reached the aircraft, part of the fuselage(机身)was on fire and Janan, who was covered in blood, was on the wing trying to pull her husband from the wreck. Meffert, afraid the plane would explode, guided her to safety behind it. At this point, traffic had come to a stop, and two nurses jumped out of their cars to help lead Janan farther away as Meffert ran back for the pilot.“I'm going to get you out. Meffert said as he positioned himself under the pilot's arms and carefully lifted him from the seat. He dragged the pilot off the wing and carried him to the side of the freeway to safety, where they watched flames swallow the plane.Remarkably, Meflerfs car was the only one hit by the plane. Had Meffert been a second or two faster, Frank told the Orange County Register, the left propeller(螺旋桨)would have torn the top off his SUV and killed him.“I play all the what-ifs-going slower, going faster. It could have been in a very different situation, Mefferttold Fox 8 ."We just had a lot of angels.”23. What was the reason for the accident?B , Frank was not a good pilot.D. The plane landed at a wrong place.B , It set Meffert's car on fire.D. It threw Meffert into the air.A . The plane hit a SUV.C. One of the engines didn't work.24. What damage did the plane do to Meffert?A. It hit part of Meffert's car.C. It caused Meffert covered in blood.25. Why did Meffert manage to carry the pilot out of the plane?A. Because he knew how to perform first aid.B Because the plane couldn't fly any more.C. Because he didn't want to cause a traffic jam.D. Because the plane might explode.26. How did Meffert feel about the outcome of the accident?A. Nervous.B. Lucky.C. Sad.D. ExcitedCThe definition of beauty changes constantly. And it goes in cycles, like the changing of the four seasons. Not so long ago, Chinese people saw fashion as something coming from the West. Afraid to make “mistakes”, they looked to Europe and America to see which standards had been set.But now, the Internet, technology and social media have created a flat world. Fashion can be accessed from anywhere. Go to a high-end Beijing shopping mall, for instance, and you'll see shoppers holding Hermes bags and wearing Chanel while holding a string of Buddhist prayer beads in their hands. Combination is the future of fashion.As a visual artist who grew up in this “new” China, I witnessed my generation's material dreams become a reality. I use technology in my photography, and I believe technology can help artists present works in new and better ways and this is the future of visual art. After all, we live in a world where AI is so advanced that it can create art free from human input.We may give AI creativity, but that doesn't mean it can't be creative in its own right. Artificial thinking as well as decision-making is rooted in the intelligence and experience of countless human minds. It has already created wonderful examples of painting and music. Yet, some critics question whether anything created this way can ever be considered as real art. This is because most people have a limited understanding of AL They see it as unfathomable, or the mysterious stuff of science fiction.But applying AI to visual art need not be high-tech. Even the simplest of photo processing apps owe their existence to the development of AL and its applications will only widen in the near future.However, I can't predict what the future of visual art will look like. None of us can. The world changes too fast, and the possibilities of the future will far exceed(超过)any thing we attempt to imagine today.27. According to the author, what does "a flat world, probably refers to?A. A world where our material dreams have become a realityA world where wearing luxuries is a common phenomenonB. A world where people are allowed access to global resourcesA world where the definition of beauty keeps going in circles28. Why does the author think AI can be creative in its own way?A. Human beings have equipped AI with intelligence and skills.B AI has developed critical thinking from the very beginning.C. AI technology is advancing very quickly around the world.D. The thinking of AI is based on human wisdom and experience.29. What does the underlined word “unfathomable" in Paragraph4mean?A. Complicated. B. Familiar.C. Definite.D. Predictable.30. Which statement will the author probably agree with?A. Standards of fashion are still set by westerners.B. It is hard for us to define visual art in the future.C. Visual art is a combination of art and high-tech.D. The future of visual art depends on technology.DPet industry seems to resist gravity. With continual growth over the past 50 years, it shows no sign of slowing down. With people treating their pets more and more like a family member, the pet industry continues to see a rise in related products and services.The pet industry in the USA reached a milestone in 2020, with total sales of $103. 6 billion, a historic high, according to the American Pet Products Association State of the Industry Report, compared to sales of $48 billion in 2010. That is more than a 100%increase in just ten years in what you might consider to be a relatively boring industry.The pet supplement industry has been growing rapidly as pet owners treat their cats like a member of the family, almost mirroring human behavior. Pay attention to what human trends for health as it might cross over to their pets.And if you thought product innovation was limited to humans, you would be wrong. We are starting to see significant amounts of innovation in pet product research and development. For example: pet wipes. Pet wipes are essentially moist towelettes(湿Z氏巾)used on pets after going to the bathroom. Another relatively new pet product category is pet toothpaste.The same trend goes in the high-end product as well. If it will make their pets happier, there's a group of owners who will buy it. And that includes relatively expensive luxury products. A new brand of kitty litter (猫砂) changes color based on a cat's urine pH levels and the company claims that the product helps cat owners detect illness in their cats.It seems that anything humans need, pets need. So, perhaps ifs not surprising that pet insurance is on the rise. The global pet insurance market size was estimated at $3. 8 billion in 2019 and is expected to reach $4. 4 billion in 2020 according to Grand View Research. Even Lemonade, the Al-powered insurer recently launched its own pet insurance coverage.31. What makes pet industry continue to develop?A. Its resistance to gravityC. The support of some organizationsB People's growth of love for petsD. The fashionable products and servicesIn what way is the growth of pet industry reflected?A.The diversity of petsB.The family members' behaviorC.The amount of money spent on itD.Human's needs for their own life32. According to the passage, what are the trends of pet industry mainly about?A.Pets' health and wellbeingB.Pets' appearance and beautyC.Pets9 training and
