populations.Nomatter how they achieve it,these novel libraries are keeping the magic of reading alive.Bishan Library（Singapore）Built in 2006,this library with skylights and trellises,is meant to invoke a modern glasstreehouse.Glass pods of varying colors stick out of the building randomly to create cozy yet airycorners for reading throughout the building.At the same time,a more open-plan childrens room onthe basement level invites interaction while preventing noise from filtering upward and disturbingthose concentrating in the lofty perches above.Stuttgart City Library（Stuttgart,Germany）Opened in 2011,this nine-story public library is characterized by its attractive white colorscheme（lit by blue light at night）,its bold cubic shape.This cultural center for the city,designedto feel open and full of light,can be entered from any of its four sides,and people can borrowartwork as well as books.The Camel Library Service（North Eastern Province,Kenya）To combat low literacy rates in the desert of Kenya,the government created a roaming librarycomposed of nine camels bringing books to villages.The library travels four days a week servingthe regions nomadic people.With more funding,they plan to increase their reach both in distanceand the books they carry.Macquarie University Library（Sydney,Australia）A wonderful combination of cutting-edge and sustainable ideas,this building was made fromrecycled materials,features a green roof,and was designed to look like the shape of a eucalyptustree.It is also state of the art,using robot cranes to bring requested books to the front desk.21.Which of the following can offer the service of lending artwork?A.Bishan Library.B.Stuttgart City Library.C.The Camel Library Service.D.Macquarie University

readingD.present beautiful appearancesBIt was several days after my mom had passed away and I was at a loss how to carry on with mylife.Therefore,when I received an email from a friend about a race benefiting cancer research,Iignored it.It seemed to be heart-breaking,as cancer was the disease that had taken my mother awayfrom me.But a general responsibility for game organizing made me obliged（有义务的）to agree.Inthe weeks to come,I managed to re-enter the world of the living.I checked our teams website daily,feeling proud each time a donation added to our total.I knew my mom would have wanted it thatway.She was the type who never got defeated.It was this very spirit that helped me get by.Whenthe race ended,I noticed the runners all had one thing in common:There were big smiles on theirfaces.They made it look so rewarding and effortless.I wanted in.Therefore,I enrolled in another race two months later.Considering I could barely run a mile,itwas ambitious.But my friend and I made a training plan so I wouldnt come in last.I followed itreligiously and didnt let anything get in my way.Running up and down the citys hills,I was flooded with memories.I had lived there aftercollege and my mother had visited often.I passed Bloomingdales,recalling the time she and I hadgotten into a screaming argument there.I was about to beat myself up when I remembered what Mom had said after her diagnosis ofcancer.“I dont want you to feel guilty about anything.”Her paper-thin hands had held metightly.A weight lifted from my shoulders.When the race day arrived,I gave it my all for my mom and for all she had taught me andcontinued to teach me.As I ran,whenever I felt like slowing down,I pictured her cheering me on.Crossing the finish line,I was filled with her love and a sense of peace.24.Why did the author ignore the email in the beginning?A.She felt it hard to finish the race.B.She had no time to join in the event.C.She thought the research meaningless.D.She was

title for the passage?A.How I Got Healed in RunningB.The Loss of Sweet MemoriesC.What Matters Most in RunningD.The Rewards of Great FriendshipCOf all the peculiar and fascinating creatures living under the sea,perhaps jellyfish are thestrangest.Some jellyfish species have a bad reputation for scaring away tourists and blocking powerstation pipes.But with an increasing number of plastic garbage ending up in the sea,these daysyoure as likely to swim into a plastic bag as a jellyfish.Now scientific research is discovering thatthese rubbery sea creatures might provide an answer-a sticky solution to the problem of plasticpollution.In recent years,tiny pieces of plastic called microplastic have been a significant problem forthe worlds seas and oceans.These plastics are invisible to the eye and arent caught by seawatertreatment plants due to their small size,so they enter our system and harm our health.Theyve beenfound in many places-in Arctic ice,at the bottom of the sea and even inside animals.Slovenianscientist,Dr Ana Rotter,heads GoJelly,a European research team of jellyfish ecologists lookinginto the problem.Microplastics are becoming an increasing problem.Dr Ana Rotter says when she was a child,people were more environmentally friendly-not harmful to the environment or having the leastpossible impact on it.At that time,there were very few single-use plastics.The situation since thenhas changed dramatically.In fact,theres been such an increase in microplastics that today the UNlists plastic pollution as one of the worlds top environmental threats.But how do jellyfish fit into the story?Well,its the“jelly”part of jellyfish,and specificallytheir sticky,jelly-like mucus that is key.Jellyfish produce a thick,sticky liquid called mucus.DrAna Rotter has discovered that this mucus has strong absorptive capabilities-it can absorb,take inliquids and other substances.One of the substances jellyfish mucus absorbs are the particles thatmake up microplastics.Dr Rotters research is still in the early stages,but its hoped that jellyfish mucus could hold thekey to a future free of microplastic polluted oceans.Scientists are hoping that the mucussabsorptive properties will allow it to trap particles of plastic floating in the sea.By trapping these,the mucus acts like a magnet-an object that attracts certain materials,like metal,but in this case,microplastic waste.28.Paragraph 2 mainly talks about _.A.where microplastics can be foundB.why microplastics can harm our healthC.what problems the seas and oceans are facingD.how the research was carried out by the scientist29.What can we learn from this passage?A.Jellyfish species cause a great threat to the sea.B.Jellyfish species like to swim and live in plastic bags.C.Jellyfish mucus can attract metals and break them down.D.Jellyfish mucus can absorb liquids and some other substances.30.What does the underlined word“properties”in Paragraph 5 most probably mean?A.Qualities.B.Substances.C.Choices.D.Materials.31.What is the authors purpose in writing this passage?A.To show the harm that sea and ocean pollution brings to human beings.B.To introduce the living habits of the weird and wonderful creatures in the sea.C.To provide a new method for collecting data on environmental threats in the sea.D.To inform a promising scientific finding for dealing with plastic pollution in the sea.DIt all started when I typed a perfectly reasonable prompt（提示词）into one of several appson the market that can create an image based on text.“Skull space laser dinosaur starshipexplosion,”I wrote.The app processed for a few seconds,and returned four images,one of whichwas strangely accurate:a dinosaur-looking skull screamed out of an empty space,trailing fire.Text-to-image AIs identify images by looking at the text that people have used to describe those picturesonline.When the app got my prompt,it studied images that random people had described as“dinosaur”or laser and soon then used what is called a diffusion model（扩散模型）to add abunch of random chaos to those pictures.Once they were suitably completed,it“upscaled”them,removing noise and sharpening focus.Its work is so good that an artist using it recently won firstplace for digital images at the Colorado State Fair.But there is the question of all the other pictures online that are being transformed into AI-generated masterpieces.As many artists have pointed out,their works are being used withoutpayment.The image-generating algorithm（算法）creates illustrations and even movies by usingdata sets stocked with art stolen from artists who post their works online.Some AI researchers argue that their algorithms arent stealing from artists so much as learningfrom them just as human artists learn from each other.But a more ethical approach would be forcompanies to acknowledge their debt to artists and create a model of voluntary collective licensing,much like what radio stations first did in radios early days.Back then,musicians created groupslike BMI to collectively license their music to radio stations-then BMI would pay artists based onhow often their songs were played.Perhaps artists and art institutions today could form a“collecting society”that would allow companies to license their artwork for data sets.To create ethical AI systems,we need to acknowledge the people whose work makes thosesystems so magical.We cant simply take advantage of every image online-we need humans tomanage those data sets and we need to pay them to do it.32.What can we learn about Text-to-image Als from the first two paragraphs?A.They are developed to process pictures.B.They are used to describe online pictures.C.They use a diffusion model to beautify pictures.D.They create their works based on online pictures.33.One of the issues raised by the success of Text-to-image AIs is _.A.the influence upon art creationB.the availability of online picturesC.the neglect of the artists copyrightD.the prospect of artists being replaced34.Why did the author mention BMI in Paragraph 4?A.To introduce the role that BMI played in AI history.B.To present a way to regulate the use of online pictures.C.To prove the necessity of licensing music to radio stations.D.To demonstrate the urgency of forming a collecting society.35.What can we infer from the passage?A.It is not practical to improve the image-generating algorithm.B.The function of Text-to-image AIs shouldnt be underestimated.C.Human efforts should be valued in the application of Text-to-image AIs.D.Companies should be held responsible for the illegal pictures on public websites.第二节（共 5小题；每小题 2 分,满分 10分）根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Recent years have witnessed the increasing popularity of such apps as WeChat and TikTok.36Also TikTok is already a household name globally,maybe one of the Chinese brands to be trulyrecognized universally.WeChat is particularly relied upon as a secure part of the structure of our technologicallyadvancing societies.37Moreover,a court in Haidian allows litigants（诉讼当事人）to communicate with theirlawyers through WeChat video connections.Many features of WeChat alongside its well-thought-out design have meant that the app hasdominated its competitors domestically.The ability to move through web pages without tags and save articles alongside other offlinecontent within the app simplified the online experience.38 This is a fantastic application designedto combine the comprehensive nature of the we
