21、Chinese scientists have created the world's first light-based quantum(量子) computer, called Jiuzhang, opening a new era of quantum computation. It's a breakthrough in the field after Google completed its quantum computer last year.
Compared with today's best supercomputers, Jiuzhang can calculate 100,000 billion times faster. For example, it takes Jiuzhang 200 seconds to perform Gaussian boson sampling(高斯玻色取样问题), an extremely challenging calculation, while the fastest classical supercomputer, Fugaku, would need about 600 million years to complete the same task.
Quantum computers can take computational shortcuts (捷径) when simulating (模拟) extremely complex scenarios(场景), whereas conventional computers have to find a solution step by step, taking significantly more time in the process.
Quantum machines' amazing computing power arises from their basic building blocks, called quantum bits, or qubits, according to the University of Science and Technology of China. Usually, classical computers handle data in binary (二进制的) bits, presenting data as either 0s or ls. However, quantum computers process data using qubits, which can be identified as 0s, 1s or everything in between. As a result, as the number of qubits increases, the computing ability of quantum computers increases too.
With advantages over traditional computers, quantum computers have a wide range of applications. The calculations carried out by Jiuzhang can potentially be applied to machine learning, quantum chemistry and graph theory, according to Pan Jianwei, a key researcher behind Jiuzhang.
According to Pan, quantum computing has already become a fierce competition ground among the United States, Europe, and other developed regions. “The feat(壮举) cements(巩固) China's position in the first echelon( 梯队)of nations in quantum computing,” the university said in a news release.
Jiuzhang is currently only programmed to do boson sampling. “In the near future, scientists may increase Jiuzhang's possible output states- a key indicator of computing power,” Lu Chaoyang, another key researcher behind Jjuzhang, told China Daily.
【1】What can we learn about Jiuzhang?
A．It is the first to take advantage of quantum computation.
B．It calculates 100,000 times faster than Fugaku.
C．It is the fastest to perform Gaussian boson sampling.

22、Globally, people use roofs to dry out food, do their laundry and sleep. In Belfast, where we're based, there's a culture of enjoying looking down on the city from up high, because it's in a valley. But because we were a conflict area for a long time,many people didn't want to live, work or hang out in the city, and our roofs cape has been neglected.
Rooftop projects can be as big or as small as you want. They can be used as social or cultural spaces, for green or blue public facilities. But it's not just about commercial opportunities; it can be as simple as an individual turning his/her city balcony into a mini garden or vegetable patch. It's not just about doing it on a rooftop because it's “cool”.It's about giving up the deep-rooted thought that roofs are off limits and embracing their challenges as opportunities. That can make a huge difference. For instance, we're helping turn the rooftop car park of a city central shopping centre into an outdoor space for employees, due to restrictions they now face indoors because of COVID-19.
Using rooftops creatively allows us to cope with many of the challenges faced by cities today--be those environmental, social, technological, or cultural. At the moment,we're being forced to rethink how we use public spaces due to COVID-19. With lots of restrictions on enclosed areas, we should be acknowledging rooftops alternatives.For example,Rotterdam recently hosted a play that took place across its rooftops. Each roof lit up and hosted a different part of the drama, while residents sat and watched, listening to the action through headphones.
Are there any challenges? Rain is one. Also is health and safety. But there are creative and practical solutions to all the barriers we face. In fact,the challenges are what make rooftops so exciting----because they give you even more opportunities to be creative and solve problems. It is always a matter of trial and error.
【1】What can we learn about rooftops in the first two paragraphs?
A．People enjoy getting together on rooftops.
B．People can use rooftops to their own advantage.
C．Rooftops are made good use of by locals in Belfast.
D．Rooftops projects were launched for commercial reasons.
【2】How can rooftops benefit people in their life?
A．Rooftops can be adapted to car parks.
B．Rooftops help solve environmental problems.
C．Rooftops can provide space for work and play.
D．People can exchange their thoughts on rooftops.
【3】What will be possibly mentioned after the last paragraph?
A．The new challenges of the future.
B．Reasons for building rooftop projects.
C．Exciting development of rooftop projects.
D．Solutions to the challenges we are facing now.
【4】What is the author's purpose in writing the text?
A．To introduce rooftop projects in Belfast.
B．To encourage people to start rooftop projects.
C．To analyze the current situation of rooftop projects.
D．To offer suggestions on long-term city development.
23、We take it for granted that with memory we can remember most of things which happened in our life. But it is difficult to imagine what life would be like without memory. The meanings of thousands of everyday perceptions(感知), the basis for the decisions we make, and the roots of our habits and skills are to be found in our past experiences, which are brought into the present by memory.
Memory can be defined as the ability to keep information available for later use. It not only includes “remembering” things like arithmetic(算术) or historical facts, but also involves any change in the way an animal typically behaves. Memory is involved when a rat gives up eating grain because he has sniffed something suspicious in the grain pile.
Memory exists not only in humans and animals but also in some physical objects and machines. Computers, for example, contain devices for storing data for later use. It is interesting to compare the memory storage capacity(容量) of a computer with that of a human being. The instant access memory of a large computer may hold up to 100,000 “words”—strings of alphabetic or numerical characters—ready for instant use. An average U.S. teenager probably recognizes the meaning of about 1000,000 words of English. However, this is but a part of the total amount of information that the teenager has stored. Consider, for example, the number of faces and places that the teenager can recognize on sight.
The use of words is the basis of the advanced problem solving intelligence of human beings. A large part of a person’s memory is in terms of words and combinations of words. But while language greatly expands the number and the kind of things a person can remember, it also requires a huge memory capacity. It may well be this capacity that distinguishes humans, setting them apart from other animals.
【1】Which of the following is true about memory?
A. It helps us perceive things happening around us every day.
B. It is based on the decisions we made in the past.
C. It is rooted in our past habits and skills.
D. It connects our past experiences with the present.
【2】According to the passage, memory is helpful in one’s life in the following aspects EXCEPT that________________.
A. it involves a change in one’s behavior
B. it keeps information for later use
C. it warns people not to do things repeatedly
D. it enables one to remember events that happened in the past
【3】What is the major characteristic of man’s memory capacity according to the author?
A. It can be expanded by language.
B. It can remember all the combined words.
C. It may keep all the information in the past.
D. It may change what has been stored in it.
【4】Human beings make themselves different from other animals by________.
A. having the ability to perceive danger
B. having a far greater memory capacity
C. having the ability to recognize faces and places on sight
D. having the ability to draw on past experiences
24、Along with the standard pigments（颜料）and paintbrushes，artist Sean Yoro(known as Hula), requires an unconventional piece of equipment for his particular brand of mural（壁画） making: a paddleboard.
The Hawaian muralist, balanced on the top of the floating platform, describes women from various sites across the world, whose homelands are often threatened by the effects of global warming.
For his most recent project, titled "What If You Fly", Hula traveled to Baffin Island, off the coast of Nunavut, Canada, to paint a portrait of local Inuit woman Jesse Mike, who lives there with her daughter.
In a short film telling of the artist's process, Mike explains her frustrating previous experiences working with filmmakers who reported on the terrible circumstances troubling her endangered landscape. "For most people, it's about the polar bears, it's not about the people. "she said. "Well, let's make it about the people. "
Hula and his team spent 14 hours searching for the perfect iceberg canvas（油画布）,knowing all the while that the ice itself, and any image created on the top of it,would soon melt away into nothing.
"It's a little ambitious to do this larger than life ice mural in the Arctic, and somehow, at the same time, make a connection to the human culture, "climber and filmmaker Renan Ozturk said of the project.
When Hula found his proper ice, he painted a portrait of Jesse he took earlier on his camera. Working against the power of time and Mother Nature, the artist aimed to finish as much of Jesse's portrait as he could before the iceberg disappeared.
The massive image, Hula's most remote and technically challenging piece yet, communicates a memorable reality—the consequences of climate change, first and foremost, affect people.
【1】What is "What If You Fly"?
A．A film about the muralist.
B．A project conducted by Hula
C．A painting based on a local Inuit.
D．A woman called Jesse Mike.
【2】Why did Jesse Mike complain about some filmmakers?
A．They only reported on terrible circumstances.
B．They didn't focus on human beings.
C．They just reported on frustrating experiences.
D．They showed no sympathy to the endangered landscape.
【3】Why did Hula paint image on the Arctic ice?
A．He made an attempt to paint on varieties of materials.
B．He was ambitious enough to explore Mother Nature.
C．He warned people of the consequences of global warming.
D．He wanted to show his unconventional painting.
【4】What can be the best title for the text?
A．A Muralist and an Inuit
B．Arctic Ice Painting, Memorable Reality
C．Mother Nature, Massive Images
D．Standard Tools, Unconventional Paintings
