11、countries have existed,the French and the British have been rivals or even enemies.One conflict between the two countries lasted over 100 years,and the British and French were at war through the 18th century.There is no fighting now,of course.But there is still a strong sense of rivalry(敌对)between t

12、he two nations.Thats why a recent survey in the UK caused a major shock.It revealed(揭露)that one third of the British people would like to live in France.It also showed that twenty-one percent of British people would actually prefer to have been born in France.Many reasons were given.France has a bet

13、ter climate and a more relaxed lifestyle,with some of the longest holidays in Europe.It is thought to have better public services in every area from health to transport.People in France work shorter hours and enjoy longer vacations.And think of the food and wine!Estimates(估计)of the numbers of Briton

14、s living in France range from 100,000 to half a million.But it is not one-way traffic.Around 15,000 French people per year come to live in Britain,mainly settling in London.They are attracted by higher pay in Britain,lower taxes,a more dynamic lifestyle.Now it seems that people can go to the place t

15、hat suits them best.1、Why do some British people like to live in France?AThey prefer the longer holidays there.BEngland has the worst food in Europe.CFrance is not far away from England.DThe two countries have always been friends.2、Some French people mainly set in London because _.Athey like better

18、 of modem medicine,health care-with its fax machines and clipboards(写字板)is out of date.This outdated era is slowly drawing to a close as the industry catches up with the artificial-intelligence(AI)revolution.Eric Topol,an expert in heart disease and enthusiast for digital medicine,thinks AI will be

19、particularly useful for such tasks as examining images,observing heart traces for abnormalities or turning doctors words into patient records.It will be able to use masses of data to work out the best treatments,and improve workflows in hospitals.In short,AI is set to save time,lives and money.The f

20、ear some people have is that AI will be used to deepen the assembly-line culture of modem medicine.If it gives a“gift of time”to doctors,they argue that this bonus should be used to extend consultations,rather than simply speeding through them more efficiently.That is a fine idea,but as health swall

21、ows an ever-bigger share of national wealth,greater efficiency is exactly what is needed,at least so far as governments and insurers are concerned.Otherwise,rich societies may fail to cope with the needs of ageing and growing populations.An extra five minutes spent chatting with a patient is costly

22、as well as valuable.The AI revolution will also enable managerial accountants to adjust and evaluate every aspect of treatment.The autonomy of the doctor will surely be weakened,especially,perhaps,in public-health systems which are duty-bound to cut unnecessary costs.The Hippocratic Oath(誓言)holds th

23、at there is an art to medicine as well as a science,and that“warmth,sympathy and understanding may outweigh the surgeons knife or the chemists drug”.Theres lots of sense in it:the patients of sympathetic physicians have been shown to recover better.Yet as the supply of human carers fails to satisfy

24、the demand for health care,the future may involve consultations on smartphones and measurements monitored by chatbots.The considerately warmed stethoscope(听诊器),placed gently on a patients back,may become a relic of the past.1、Whats Dr Topols attitude toward AIs coming into medicine?AConcerned.BDoubt

25、ful.COptimistic.DCautious.2、What does the author of the text attach more importance to?AMedical costs.BNational wealth.CLonger consultation.DGreater efficiency.3、Why is the Hippocratic Oath mentioned?ATo prove the bright future of AI.BTo show the advantage of a human doctor.CTo explain medical equip

26、ment is more important.DTo argue a human doctor performs as well as a robot.4、What may be the best title for the text?AHealth care and AI BAI and its applications CDoctors and Patients DDr Topol and digital medicine 23（8 分）Melinda Skaar wasnt expecting any phone calls.Skaar was working late in her o

28、oors and her desk was on the 37th floor.Skaar called out to office mate Stephen Oksas,who also stayed late to work.But when they got out to the hallway,they were met by a cloud of black smoke.Rushing back,Skaar shut the door and filled the space at the bottom of the door with her jacket to keep the

29、smoke out.Then they called 911.Before they could call their families,however,the line went dead.That meant that they were completely cut off from the outside world.All they could do was wait and hope someone would come to rescue them.Minutes ticked by.Smoke began to float into the office.Soon it bec

30、ame hard for them to breathe.Looking around,Skaar noticed a small workroom.It seemed to have cleaner air.So they crowded there.That helped for a while,but in time even the workroom was filled with deadly smoke.Hopeless,they tried to break the windows,but the glass was not breakable.Everything they t

31、hrew at it just bounced back.Defeated,they struggled back to the workroom.They felt weak and dizzy.Soon Skaar found Oksas had passed out.As Skaar and Oksas lay near death,rescuers were rushing to find them.At last,at about 4 a.m.,firefighters found them.Skaar and Oksas knew they were lucky to be ali

32、ve.Sunday is my birthday,Skaar told a reporter.She would be turning 29,but she knew she had already got the best present possiblethe gift of life.1、What did Skaar and Oksas do when they were stopped by the fire?Athey tried to run down the stairs.Bthey called their families.Cthey waited where they we

35、op export of the country.But at home,it is seen as national pride.Ethiopians feel good about their coffee,and enjoying a drink with friends is a long tradition.International coffee experts travel the world to find the best coffee.They keep returning to Ethiopia.Some people say the climate produces q

36、uality beans.Morton Wenner is a coffee importer.He said,“Ethiopia has different ancient types of coffee.They are planted in places with perfect soil,perfect altitude,and climates that are really suitable for coffee processing,such as drying and things like that.”Finding the best quality beans is oft

37、en an issue of taste.The process is known as cupping tasting and comparing coffee from different roasted beans,grading and then pricing them.But before international experts come to taste,coffee beans are studied in small coffee laboratories.Helen Assefa,a lab technician,describes the process,“When

38、the coffee comes to the lab,we assess its quality first by recording the details.Then we weigh the wetness level and screen the beans for analysis.After that we polish the coffee beans and taste the samples.At the end we check for imperfect beans.”Ethiopia is making big profits on its coffee reputat

39、ion by exporting coffee to more than 120 countries.The country has an export income of more than$840 million a year.But not all the best coffee leaves Ethiopia.Forty percent of the coffee grown in the country stays there.It remains an important part of everyday life at work,at home and at ceremonies

43、u were born after 1978,and live until 80 years old,you will leave behind a minimum of 14,400 plastic bottles on this planet.These bottles take hundreds of years to break down into tiny pieces of plastic,never to completely disappear.Most of the waste is consumed by fish and birds,which has shortened

44、 their lifetime greatly.The Plastic Bottle Village is just a great idea that might finally save us from being buried in plastic.Its a community in Panama that is going to be made of used bottles.The design process begins with building steel frames,which are then filled with these bottles.Once this s

45、tep is complete,and electrical and plumbing(管道装置)lines are put inside,the plastic walls are covered by concreteboth inside and outside.So no one will actually be able to tell that the walls are made of plastic.Besides,the material will keep the house 17C cooler than the outside,which is the biggest

46、benefit to people living inside.The village is the brainchild(主意)of Robert Bezeau with the intention of setting up several environmental projects.Having started a recycling program four years ago,during which a number of plastic bottles were collected,he started to think of how they could be put to

47、use.Soon enough,he decided to use them to build houses,and came up with a basic idea for the construction process.The project hopes to make people conscious of the waste that these bottles create so that they can do more to protect the environment.The village will also create an education center tha
