26、   Jon Williams has never had a bank account before. But now he is married and has a new job. He and his wife, Sherry, want to start keeping their money in a bank.

When he went to the bank, he was surprised. He told Sherry, “When you open a checking account, it’s like shopping. You choose the services you need. The man at the bank asked us to read this chart and choose the plan that is right for us.”

Jon and Sherry estimated the number of checks they would write each month. Between home expenses and personal spending, they realized they might write as many as 25 checks in a month. They decided the Special Checking account would cost too much. It had a check charge and a service charge. The EARN checking account would require them to keep too much money in the bank.

27、ChatGPT, designed by OpenAI to carry on conversations just like humans, has become a viral excitement. The AI-powered tool went from zero to a million users in just five days! Its ability to provide in-depth answers to user questions has even drawn the attention of distinguished technology companies.

The intelligent robot understands what the user says or types and then responds in a way that makes sense. Its vast body of knowledge has been gathered from the internet and archived books. It is further trained by humans. This makes ChatGPT a useful tool for researching almost any topic.

“We have a lot of information on the internet, but you normally have to Google it, then read it and then do something with it,” says Ricardo, chief science officer and co-founder of AI company Erudit. “Now you’ll have this resource that can process the whole internet and all of the information it contains for you to answer your question.”

ChatGPT cannot think on its own. It depends on the information that it has been trained on. As a result, the AI tool works well for things that have accurate data available. However, when unsure, ChatGPT can get creative and flow out incorrect responses. OpenAI cautions users to check the information no matter how logical it sounds. Also, ChatGPT has only been trained with information till 2021. Hence, it cannot be relied upon for anything that happened after that.

Experts believe ChatGPT has limitless potential to solve real-world problems. It can translate long texts into different languages, create content on almost any topic, and even summarize books.

However, ChatGPT has received mixed reactions from educators. Some believe it could serve as a valuable tool to help build literacy skills in the classroom. It could also be used to teach students difficult science or math concepts. But other educators think ChatGPT will encourage students to cheat. They fear this will prevent them from building critical thinking and problem-solving skills. As a result, many districts are starting to ban its use in schools.

【1】What is the unique feature of ChatGPT?

A．It has artificial intelligence.

B．It can answer users’ questions.

C．It has the largest number of users.

D．It can engage in meaningful conversations.

【2】What makes ChatGPT helpful to research various topics?

A．Its capability of information processing.

B．Its accurate information.

C．Its availability of up-to-date data.

D．Its vast body of questions.

【3】Why do ChatGPT users have to be cautious when using it?

A．ChatGPT is unable to think itself.

B．ChatGPT lacks creativity.

C．ChatGPT offers illogical information.

D．ChatGPT is not properly trained.

【4】What is the author’s attitude towards ChatGPT?

A．Favorable.

B．Disapproving.

C．Objective.

D．Intolerant.

29、   Bees may soon need to add protein shakes to their diet. Pollen (花粉) normally provides their protein (蛋白质). But rising levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the air have reduced the protein in pollen. That’s what a new study finds.

Scientists compared recently collected flowers from Canada goldenrod. Then they compared pollen in them to pollen in goldenrod reserved at a museum in Washington, DC. They found today's plants have less protein. Protein levels in pollen from the older flowers were 18 percent. Today's goldenrod pollen has only about 12 percent protein. That's about one-third less than 172 years ago. Over that same period, CO2 levels have gone up by more than one-third. Back more than 170 years ago, they were about 280 parts per million in air. Today they are about 398 ppm.

To test whether CO2 changes had played a role in the falling protein levels, the researchers did some tests. They grew goldenrod for two years at CO2 levels of up to 500 ppm. More CO2 in the air led to lower levels of protein in the flowers’ pollen.

Joan Edwards, one of the researchers, says that this drop in pollen protein could affect a bee’s diet and health. It would be like eating junk food, tasting good but offering less nutrition (营养).

Honeybees need to eat lots of protein. They use it to feed their young. They also need it to keep their immune systems healthy, says Cédric Alaux, a bee biologist at the French agricultural research agency.

Bee populations have been decreasing worldwide in recent years. A drop in their food quality might play a role, Edwards says. And that drop might affect crops too. “The health of the bee population is not just for the flowers and the bees and biodiversity.” She worries it also could play a role in “human health and well-being.”

【1】The second paragraph is mainly developed by __________.

A. giving examples B. following the time order

C. explaining reasons D. providing numbers

【2】According to the text, Joan Edwards might agree that ____________.

A. the drop of protein in pollen has a good influence on bees

B. today’s flowers can provide bees with enough nutrition

C. the drop of protein in pollen leads to a smaller population of bees

D. the smaller population of bees has nothing to do with the human race

【3】What is the main idea of the text?

A. Today’s flowers contain more protein.

B. Protein levels in pollen connect with CO2 levels.

C. Drop of protein in pollen affects bees.

D. Bee population is becoming smaller recently.
