12、ersection, another car T-boned them, sending their car sailing into the yard of a nearby home, coming to a stop only when it crashed into a tree.As smoke rose from the car, a bystander shouted, Its about to blow up! Get out!” Shaken, but otherwise OK, Norwood crawled out through the window as the dr

13、ivers side door couldnt be opened. Along with two of her friends, whod also managed to free themselves, she ran for her life. But halfway down the street, she realized that her best friend, Simmons, wasnt with them. Norwood ran back and found Simmons unconscious in the back seat. She threw open the

14、back door and pulled her friend out. She dragged Simmons a few feet to safety and laid her on the ground. After checking Simmons pulse she found there was no sign of life, so she started CPR（心肺复苏）.Had the accident happened a few weeks earlier, she might not have known what to do. But just the day be

15、fore, Norwood, who wanted to pursue a career in medicine, had earned her CPR certificate by learning on her own. Kneeling on the lawn and looking down at her dying friend, Norwood knew she had precious little time to practice what shed learned.She started pumping Simmons chest with her interlocked f

16、ingers and breathing into herfriend mouth in the hope of filling her lungs with the kiss of life. After quite a while,Simmons began coughing and taking quick deep breaths for air.

20、LifeB. A Frightening NightD. A Brave GirlC. The Power of KnowledgeEverything you know is in your brain. For what you dont, you can ask the web. However, as you can imagine, in the past there were no computers and no web at all. Think about people living 3,500 years ago, in places where pyramids towe

21、red above them. The lack of explanations about how things worked inspired the ancients to make discoveries and feed their curiosity.But do not think they knew nothing: in fact, we still wonder how the Egyptians could build the pyramids using their own, rather rudimentary equipment. They wrote down t

22、heir knowledge on books(called papyrus scrolls) so that later people could benefit from their skills.Living safer and healthier was a top priority for the ancients: when they hurt their heads in battles, they used to heal their wounds using the cures, some of which were recorded on a papyrus now kno

23、wn as the Edwin Smith Papyrus. Interestingly, this is the oldest written evidence of the word “brain“ we have on Earth, and it dates back to 3,500 years ago!However, writing the word “brain on a papyrus did not solve all the questions about it.

24、ered whether mind and soul lay in the brain or in the heart.2,000 years ago, Roman physician Galen of Pergamon was sure he had solved the question: It was the brain, not the heart, that was the center of mental life. However, Galen had to convince the people around him that what he had discovered wa

25、s true. It was not easy, mostly because people held their earlier beliefs. Every neuroscientist, just like Galen did, has to carefully observe reality, focus on something that is really interesting, think about how it can work, perform experiments, and discuss the data they get. This way, they can o

26、btain convincing evidence to be shared with others.8. What encouraged the ancients to make discoveries?A. The hope for keeping curiosity.B. The search for explanations.C.

28、covery?A. By finding evidence from papyrus scrolls.B. By asking many scientists to support him.C. By teaching people to do experiments.D. By following strict scientific methods.As AI art generators（生成器）take the world by storm, some people wonder if their works should count as art at all. The technol

29、ogy is still developing and has some wrinkles to iron out, which means there are indeed problems to consider alongside the incredible artwork a good artificial intelligence can produce.Art is classed as the product of imagination, skill, experience, and emotion, usually meant to represent something

30、for the public to enjoy. Artists spent time and effort putting their inner worlds onto these works. Machine intelligence also puts a lot of work into sorting through tons of data, linking someones prompt to datasets, and trying to represent it as best as possible. The difference is that the AI is dr

31、iven by commands instead of an emotional desire to express itself.AI painters can produce over 1,000 original works of art with every tap of the enter key on a keyboard. But a mass-produced print of the Mona Lisa is worth less than the actual Leonardo Da Vincis painting. Why? Scarcitytheres only one

32、 of the original. Should anyone pay for these things? And if an artist puts AI masterpieces up for sale, what should the price be?AI art involves a program mimicking（模仿）the work of existing artists to create a new piece according to the request of a human. But who made the artwork, the machine or it

33、s user? And can the original artists sue for copyright violation（侵权）？ Such questions complicate the merging of artificial intelligence and the art industry, while fueling arguments against recognizing Ai-generated art as marketable artistic products.Once weve answered those questions, we can tackle

34、the really big one: When an Ai-generated painting wins an award, who gets the prize?12. What does the underlined word “scarity in paragraph 3 probably mean?A. ShortageB. AdvancesC. WeaknessD. Significance13. How is AI art different from human art?A. It is the product of experience.B. It costs less m

AI art makes copyright issues more complicated.C. Artists can create more works with the help of ALD. There will be fie

37、rce competition in the art industry.二、七选五A year ago, I had one of the most important interviews of my life. 16.1 could saywhat I thought the interviewers wanted to hear.

39、 that came to my mind was that I volunteered at a nursing house and felt honored to sit with the patients and listened to their stories. But I didnt think that was good enough to impress the interviewers. So, instead, I told them when one of the residents threw out （口区吐），I quickly clean it up. 18 Th

41、 my relief, the interviewers nodded knowingly and smiled.
