Reading comprehension(1%×15=15%)AIn December 2022, people in Shenzhen found that water ran more slowly from their taps. The government said the city was facing its most serious water shortage ever. Some other cities in the southern part of China, like Chengdu and Guangzhou, are also becoming “thirsty”, The Paper reported. Compared (相比) with northern areas, southern areas have more rain and are close to more rivers and lakes. So why are they still short on water?In big cities like Shenzhen and Guangzhou, populations are growing fast. As a result, people and factories need more and more water. Each person in Shenzhen has less than 200 cubic meters of water each year. Its l/12 of the countrys average. According to the United Nations, it is an “absolute water shortage” (极度缺水) when the number is below 500 cubic meters. Climate change is making the water problem worse. For example, most cities in Guangdong depend on the Dongjiang River as their main source (来源) of water. In 2022, the river was reported to be drying up. Because of climate change, theres also less snow in the mountains of Tibet. The snow has long been the source of water for many areas in China. Those mountains might provide less water in the future. There are other reasons for water shortages. For example, water pollution makes it harder to get clean drinking water. Factories and farms dont use water efficiently (有效地). Some cities have enough rainfall, but dont have big lakes or reservoirs (水库) to store water. The water just goes into the sea.31. Where is this text most probably from?A. A newspaper.B. A textbook.C.

Worried.BI spent a lot of time sitting by the sycamore (悬铃木) tree, trying to figure out what Juli meant to me. Was she just another girl, or was she special? The more I thought about it, the more I realized that I couldnt compare her to anyone else. She was just Juli, and she was amazing. One day, I decided to climb up the tree to the top. When I looked out over the neighborhood, everything looked differentlike I was seeing it for the first time. I could see the park where we used to play, and the comer where Julis house was. And I could see her, sitting in her front yard with her sketchpad (速写板). As I watched her, I realized that I had never seen anyone so passionate (热诚的) about something. When she was drawing, it was like she was in another worlda world where nothing else mattered but the pencil and the paper. And that made me admire her even more. I wanted to know more about her, so I started asking her questions. What kind of music did she like? What was her favorite movie? What did she want to be when she grew up?

It was like a piece of me had been missing, and now it was back. “Hey Bryce,” she said, as she climbed up into the tree with me. “Hey Juli,” I said. “Can I ask you something?”“Sure,” she said. “Do you want to go to the movies with me next weekend?” I asked, trying to sound natural.

According to a US survey of more than 1,000 students, over 89 percent of them have used ChatGPT to help with homework. Developed by US company OpenAI, ChatGPT is a powerful tool. You can ask it to write stories, create recipes, translate languages, and answer all kinds of questions. Some schools in the US, Australia and France have banned (禁止) the use of ChatGPT. In the US, for example, New York City public schools banned students and teachers from using ChatGPT on the districts networks and devices. The move comes out of worries that the tool could make it easier for students to cheat on homework. Some also worry that ChatGPT could be used to spread incorrect information. “It does not build critical-thinking (批判性思维) and problem-solving skills, which are necessary for academic (学术的) and lifelong success,” said Jenna Lyle, the deputy press secretary of the New York City Department of Education. Besides bans, teachers are making changes to their classes to stop the use of ChatGPT. Some college teachers in the US try to include more speaking exams and handwritten papers instead of typed ones. However, not all educators say “no” to ChatGPT. Some Canadian universities are drafting (起草) policies on its use, for both students and teachers. They have no plans to completely ban the tool so far. Bhaskar Vira, pro-vice-chancellor for education at the University of Cambridge in the UK, said that bans on AI software like ChatGPT are not wise. “We have to know that AI is a tool people will use. What we need to do is adapt our learning, teaching and examinations. That way, we can have integrity (诚信) while recognizing the use of the tool.”41. How many uses of ChatGPT are mentioned in Paragraph 2?A. 3.B. 4.C. 5.D. 6.42. Which of the following is NOT a disadvantage of ChatGPT?A. It doesnt improve the students skills in thinking critically and solving problems.B. It will be much easier for students to cheat on homework while using it.C. It may spread incorrect information from the Internet to the real world.D. It can help to train students to speak and write more than to type.43. What is Bhaskar Viras opinion on ChatGPT?A. It is not wise for people to ban the use of it completely.B. The society wont have integrity with its development.C. People should make plans for the coming problems.D. Not everyone will use this tool in the future.44. What does the underlined word “adapt” in the last paragraph mean?A. 修改B. 适应 C. 编写D. 调整45. Which is the best title for this text?A.
