24、US poet Allen Ginsberg once said, “Poetry is the one place where people can speak their original(独创的) human mind.”

To know the special ability of poetry to catch the human spirit, World Poetry Day is held by the United Nations on March 21 each year.

The magic of poetry lies in the connection built up through words between the writer and the reader. When we read a poem, we often imagine what the poet was thinking when they wrote it, or what they were doing at the time. These thoughts let us connect with the words better, as if we’d written the poem ourselves.

But in the age of artificial intelligence (AI，人工智能), would a poem still mean as much if it weren’t written by a human at all? Today, computers can create all kinds of texts, including research papers, books, news stories and even poems.

In 2013, Australian researcher Oscar Schwartz and his friend Benjamin Laird created a website called “bot or not”, where readers can read poems and guess whether they were written by a human or a computer. During a recent speech at TedX Sydney, Schwartz said that all over the years, some of the website’s poems were able to fool（欺骗）65 percent of human readers into thinking they were written by a human.

By creating the website, Schwartz and Laird hoped that people would doubt the difference between humans and machines – and be able to tell what makes us human.

“The human mind is not a cold, hard fact,” Schwartz said during his speech. A computer may be able to create poems that are correct in both grammar and style, but it wouldn’t be able to get the same meanings and feelings across as a human poet could. In fact, now AI software creates poems based on ones that have already been written by humans. As Schwartz noted, “The computer works like a mirror that reflects (反映) any idea of a human.”

【1】The purpose of the first three paragraphs is to ___________.

A．introduce where World Poetry Day comes from.

B．show how popular poetry is around the world.

C．show the importance and beauty of poetry.

D．give some tips on enjoying poetry.

【2】What did the data（数据）from “bot or not” show?

A．Computers are better than humans at writing poetry.

B．Computers can also produce poems of high quality.

C．Readers don’t really care whether the poems were written by humans.

D．Few readers can tell poems written by computers from those by humans.

【3】According to the article, computers can’t match humans in creating poems because they_____.

A．fail to use the correct grammar and style

B．can’t create poems that are meaningful

C．can’t show feelings as well as humans

D．only know how to follow humans’ poems

25、“My dear Mr Bennet,” said his lady to him one day, “have you heard that Netherfield Park is let (出租) at last?”

Mr Bennet replied that he had not.

“But it is,” returned she, “for Mrs Long has just been here, and she told me all about it.”

Mr Bennet made no answer.

“Do not you want to know who has taken it?” cried his wife impatiently

“You want to tell me, and I have no objection (反对) to hearing it.”

This was invitation enough.

“Why, my dear, you must know, Mrs Long says that Netherfield is taken by a young man of large fortune (财富) from the north of England; that he came down on Monday to see the place, and was so satisfied with it that he agreed immediately with Mr Morris, the owner of Netherfield, and some of his servants are to be in the house by the end of next week.”

“What is his name?”

“Bingley.”

“Is he married or single?”

“Oh! Single, my dear, to be sure! A single man of large fortune; 4 or 5,000 a year. What a fine thing for our girls! It is probable that he may fall in love with one of them, and so you must visit him as soon as he comes.”

“I see no chance for that. You and the girls may go, or you may send them by themselves, which

perhaps will be still better; for, as you are as handsome as any of them, Mr Bingley might like you the best of all.”

“But, my dear, you must indeed go and see Mr Bingley when he comes into the neighbourhood.”

“It is more than I can be sure, I assure (向……保证) you.”

“But consider your daughters. Sir William and Lady Lucas have decided to go, for in general, you know they visit no new comers. Indeed you must go, for it will be impossible for us to visit him, if you do not.”

But in fact Mr Bennet was among the earliest of those who waited to visit Mr Bingley. He had always planned to visit him, though to the last always assuring his wife that he should not go.

【1】How did Mrs Bennet feel when she heard that Bingley would move there?

A. Excited and hopeful.   B. Nervous and curious.

C. Surprised and crazy.   D. Pleased and proud.

【2】Why did Mr Bennet show no interest in Mr Bingley’s moving there when his wife talked about it?

A. Because his daughters were not pretty enough.

B. Because his wife was prettier than his daughters.

C. Because he didn’t care about his daughters’ happiness.

D. Because he didn’t want to show his true feelings to others.

【3】What does the underlined word “that” mean?

A. Mr Bingley had decided to live there.

B. Mr Bennet himself would visit Mr Bingley.

C. Mr Bingley would like Mrs Bennet best.

D. Mr Bingley would fall in love with one of their daughters.

【4】Why did Mrs Bennet mention “Sir William and Lady Lucas”?

A. To show Mr Bingley was well worth visiting.

B. To show Sir William and Lady Lucas were their friends.

C. To show it was polite for a couple to visit a new comer together.

D. To show Sir William and Lady Lucas were too proud to get along well with.

27、   Some of Paul’s schoolmates learn two languages—English and French. So does Paul. As an Englishman, Paul can also speak German and Spanish. So, do you think the British people are very good language learners? The fact is that they aren’t.

The survey done by the European Commission (欧盟委员会) showed that 62% of the British people only speak English. 38% speak at least one foreign language and 18% speak two or more. Compared with the British people, 56% of the people in other European countries speak at least one foreign language and 28% speak two or more. From this you can see that the British people are famous for not speaking foreign languages and that they are not good language learners in Europe.

And the survey also showed that English is the most widely-spoken foreign language. Many European people can have a conversation in English. That’s why British people don’t think it is necessary to learn a foreign language.

In Britain, students are not required to learn a foreign language. That means at school learning a foreign language is only an option. In UK schools it is common for children to start learning a foreign language at 11 and many of them give it up at 14. So why don’t students continue learning foreign languages at school? Because they think it is more difficult to get good results in languages than in other subjects such as science or history.

To solve this problem, the British government is looking for different ways to improve language learning at school. One way is to start learning it at a much younger age. Another one is to give school children more choices.

Changing the British attitude(态度) to learning foreign languages may be a hard task but the government decides to have a try!

28、Can plants eat people? Probably not, but【1】are many plants that eat meat. Some of them are big. And they can eat small 【2】. One famous meat-eating plant is Venus Flytrap (捕蝇草).

Venus Flytrap is【3】very strange plant. It grows in dry parts of the United States. Its【4】

are like the pages of a book.They can open and close very【5】. Inside the leaves, there are three small hairs.If a fly touches one of the hairs, the leaf【6】quickly，so the fly cannot get out. In about half an hour, the leaf presses the fly【7】it is dead. Then, the plant covers the fly and slowly eats it.

Why do plants do that? Most plants get what they need【8】the sun, the air, and the ground. In some places, the ground is very【9】. It doesn’t have all these important things, especially nitrogen(氮). Animal meat has a lot of nitrogen,so some plants eat meat to get what they【10】. Let’s hope that bigger plants don’t get the same idea!
