21、Do you know ChatGPT? It’s an artificial intelligence (AI) tool. It can answer questions, tell stories, and write articles. But it’s very “thirsty”, said a new study from Harvard University.

ChatGPT has “homes” around the world in data centers (数据中心). When it works, the computers at the data centers get very hot. Workers then have to use water to cool them down. Cold water goes into pipes near the computers. The water needs to be very clean. They can’t use seawater because it can eat away at the pipes.

When you ask ChatGPT 50 questions, it “drinks” 500 milliliters (ml) of water. Scientists used 700,000 liters of water to build ChatGPT. The water use is very big. People can make 370 cars with it.

ChatGPT is just one of the AI tools around the world. You need data centers to do everything on the Internet. There are more than 8,000 data centers around the world. The number is still growing.

AI uses a lot of water to “grow”. The world’s water may not be enough. Many people don’t have enough water to drink. But AI technology helps people. Should we rethink how we use AI?

22、One day, I saw a boy shop alone at the shop where I worked. He chose some school things he wanted and went to the checkout (付款台).

The young shop assistant (店员) told him he needed to pay $37.60. The boy became very sad (伤心的) and said he only had $20. He took out one thing at a time, and at last he got down to his $20. With eyes full of tears, he asked if he could call his mom to get him home. When he got through, it sounded like his mom was too busy to arrive at once.

He tried not to cry and walked outside to sit on the chair in front of the shop. This was too much for the young assistant. She kept looking outside to see if the boy was all right. Then she said, “I wish I could pay for the rest of his things.” One of the other girls said she had a few dollars. Then two others said they could help, too.

These four young girls pooled their money and found they had more than enough to pay for the boy’s things. Then they chose more school things, and gave them all to the boy. The boy laughed happily. His mom arrived much later, but he didn’t just run to the car; he ran back into the shop and called out, “Thank you!”

23、

Have you or anyone you know ever seen an alien? Do you think there are any living creatures outside the Earth? It's a lot easier to believe something if you've seen or touched it yourself. Many people say they have seen aliens or UFOs. Some of them say they have had communication with aliens. Some even say they have the experience of being caught by aliens.

There are a lot of rumours about seeing an alien or a UFO. Here is one of them. In October, 2002 a group of people who were on vacation in Chile found a very strange creature. The creature was just over 7 cm long and had a large head, two arms and two legs, and fingers like humans. A reporter interviewed the Carreno family about the creature. He was told that one of the young children had found the creature in a bush. The child, Julio Carreno, said that the creature was still alive when it was found, but died about a week later, The creature stayed there quietly at that time, but the child said that it was warm when he touched it and it had even opened its eyes several times. He wasn't sure when it died. Is it possible that this creature was a dead alien? If it was a baby alien, where were its parents? Or do you think it was just a dead body of a wild animal? Local experts said that it might be a baby of a wild animal. But no one knew what kind of animal this creature could be.

24、根据下面短文内容及部分首字母提示，在短文的空格处填上一个最恰当的词，使短文完整、通顺，并将完整的单词填写在答题卡上对应的位置。

Do you want to study in the best middle school? Maybe only 5% can get the chance to study in the best middle school. Do you want to g【1】 a good job? About 60% lose the chance to work. Competition is everywhere. In 2023, the competition is more and more fierce (激烈). So we need to think more about it.

Through comparison (比较) results, we can find that the best schools get the best students, and the best persons get the 【2】 jobs. Comparison is like the twin brother of competition. It helps you to find out the differences between you and others.

Comparison doesn’t stop. In our daily life, there are also many examples. My good friend Frank doesn’t work as h【3】 as me, but he gets better grades than me. My deskmate Sally is always quieter than me but she answers the teachers’ 【4】 louder than me. My brother is younger but he is taller and stronger than me. He exercises every day 【5】 I just do it once a week. That’s why I often go to the hospital. I should learn from 【6】 to care more about my health.

If all the people are the same, the world may seem less colorful. 【7】 makes the world beautiful. So we need comparison to help us know what we are good at and bad at and then try to make ourselves better t【8】 learning from others.
