Located besideLake Geneva, the Olympic Museum houses more than 10,000 artificial objects and hours of interactive contents highlighting some of the best moments during the Olympics. Here are some of the museum’s most moving moments.
The Olympic Park
The journey through the Olympic Museum begins in the Olympic Park, an 8,000-square-meter outdoor area in front of the museum overlooking Lake Geneva and theAlps. The park contains artwork and sculptures that show respect to the world of sport.
The first Olympic symbol
The “Olympic Rings” flag was designed by Coubertin in 1913. The rings represent the five continents that participate in the Olympics: Africa, Asia,America,AustraliaandEurope. The six color1 s include at least one color1 that is represented on the flag of every country.
The stadiums
The stadiums that host the Olympic Games are as much of a celebration of design as the games are a celebration of sportsmanship. Guests can explore plans and models of Olympic stadiums’ past and present, including one of the games’ most attractive stadiums, the Bird’s Nest from Beijing 2008 Olympics.
The Olympic medals
Have you ever wondered what an Olympic medal looks like? The Olympic Museum has a room that houses every bronze, silver, and gold medal from every Olympic Games dating back to the first modern Olympics of 1896. Each medal design is a unique representation of the year and location in which the games were held.
1.Which moment do you see first when exploring the Olympic Museum?
A.The Olympic Park.
B.The first Olympic symbol.
C.The stadiums.
D.The Olympic medals.
2.What do you know from The first Olympic symbol?

In 2015, a man named Nigel Richards memorized 386, 000 words in the entireFrench Scrabble Dictionaryin just nine weeks. However, he does not speak French. Richards’ impressive feat is a useful example to show how artificial intelligence works — real AI. Both of Richard and AI take in massive amounts of data to achieve goals with unlimited memory and superman accuracy in a certain field.
The potential applications for AI are extremely exciting. Because AI canoutperformhumans at routine tasks — provided the task is in one field with a lot of data — it is technically capable of replacing hundreds of millions of white and blue collar jobs in the next 15 years or so.
But not every job will be replaced by AI. In fact, four types of jobs are not at risk at all. First, there are creative jobs. AI needs to be given a goal to optimize. It cannot invent, like scientists, novelists and artists can. Second, the complex, strategic jobs — executives, diplomats, economists — go well beyond the AI limitation of single-field and Big Data. Then there are the as-yet-unknown jobs that will be created by AI.
Are you worried that these three types of jobs won’t employ as many people as AI will replace? Not to worry, as the fourth type is much larger: jobs where emotions are needed, such as teachers, nannies and doctors. These jobs require compassion, trust and sympathy — which AI does not have. And even if AI tried to fake it, nobody would want a robot telling them they have cancer, or a robot to babysit their children.
So there will still be jobs in the age of AI. The key then must be retraining the workforce so people can do them. This must be the responsibility not just of the government, which can provide funds, but also of corporations and those who benefit most.
4. What is the main purpose of paragraph 1?
A. To introduce the topic.
B. To mention Nigel’s feat.
C. To stress the importance of good memory.
D. To suggest humans go beyond AI in memory.
5. Which of the following best explains “outperform” underlined in paragraph 2?
A. Be superior to
B. Be equal to
C. Be similar to
D. Be related to
6. Which of the following jobs is the most likely to be replaced?
A. The writer.
B. The shop assistant.
C. The babysitter.
D. The psychologist.
7. What does the text suggest people do about job replacement of AI?
A. Limit the application of AI to a certain degree.
B. Get more support from the government.
C. Apply for the donation from companies.
D. Upgrade themselves all the time.
C
What will people die of 100 years from now? If you think that is a simple question，you have not been paying attention to the revolution that is taking place in bio-­technology（生物技术）. With the help of new medicine，the human body will last a very long time. Death will come mainly from accidents，murder and war. Today’s leading killers，such as heart disease，cancer，and aging itself，will become distant memories.
In discussion of technological changes，the Internet gets most of the attention these days. But the change in medicine can be the real technological event of our times. How long can humans live? Human brains were known to decide the final death. Cells（细胞）are the basic units of all living things，and until recently，scientists were sure that the life of cells could not go much beyond 120 years because the basic materials of cells，such as those of brain cells，would not last forever. But the upper limits will be broken by new medicine. Sometime between 2050 and 2100，medicine will have advanced to the point at which every 10 years or so，people will beable to take medicine to repair their organs（器官）. The medicine，made up of the basic building materials of life，will build new brain cells，heart cells，and so on－in much the same way our bodies make new skin cells to take the place of old ones.
It is exciting to imagine that the advance in technology may be changing the most basic condition of human existence，but many technical problems still must be cleared up on the way to this wonderful future.
8. According to the passage，human death is now mainly caused by ________.
A. diseases and aging
B. accidents and war
C. accidents and aging
D. heart disease and war
9. In the author’s opinion，today’s most important advance in technology lies in（在于）________.
A. the Internet
B. medicine
C. brain cells
D. human organs
10. Humans may live longer in the future because ________.
A. heart disease will be far away from us
B. human brains can decide the final death
C. the basic materials of cells will last forever
D. human organs can be repaired by new medicine
11. How long can humans live in the future according to the passage?
A. Over 100 years.
B. More than 120 years.
C. About 150 years.
D. The passage doesn’t tell us.
D
If you could travel back in time, which period of history would you visit? It’s a great question to ask your friends, and time travel is the subject of many science fiction films. Of course, sci-fi is familiar to most of us, butwhat is cli-fi? The simple answer is climate fiction which focuses on the subject of climate change.
Many of the cli-fi examples we watch tend to be disaster films. It could be solar flares (太阳耀斑), ice ages devastating (摧毁) the planet, extreme flooding swamping the earth with water, or super-storms that threaten life as we know it. While films and novels of this style are often subject to the typical images of a hero or heroine battling to save the day, what sets it apart from most sci-fi films is that the plots will often draw on apparently reasonable outcomes in the near future.
Climate change and the potential threats have long been established. Some believe that the issue of climate change has even led to more fans watching films to learn more about what's happening to the world – seeing it as a form of edutainment. A study conducted by the Yale programme on Climate Change Communication tested the effects that two climate fiction novels can have on its readers and found “significant positive effects” in terms of their attitudes and beliefs towards the climate crisis – for example, understanding global warming will harm them and future generations.
Most climate films are not only extremely popular action films, but also cause our fear of what some see as the approaching end of the world. This sounds bad, but according to a study conducted on 310 adults in the US, watching such scary films can help us feel more prepared and less alone in situations such as the pandemic (疫情).
So, it looks like cli-fi is hereto stay – and there seem to be some benefits. Whether it’s there to educate, entertain or prepare you for a climate crisis, it might have a role to play.
12. Which of the following may be the subject of cli-fi?
A. Time travel.
B. Global warming.
C. Weather forecast.
D. Economic climate.
13. What can we learn about cli-fi films from paragraph 2?
A. They are often about extreme natural disasters.
B. They want to show that man can conquer nature.
C. They usually have similar plots with sci-fi films.
D. They can show the true near future of the world.
14. Why is the study conducted by the Yale programme mentioned in paragraph 3?
A. To prove that climate change has potential threats.
B. To show that people like climate fiction novels.
C. To tell that cli-fi novels have positive effects on readers.
D. To explain how the climate crisis affect the human being.
15. What does the writer mainly want to tell us in the last paragraph?
A. Cli-fi films are very popular as action films.
B. A study was conducted on 310 adults in theUS.
C. The pandemic make people scared and alone.
D. Cli-fi films are useful and will be here to stay.

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

选项中有两项为多余选项
Finding an outlet for emotion
Finland is fertile (肥沃的) ground for heavy metal music. For every 100,000 people, there are 70 metal bands, according to Medium. Heavy metal’s characteristic aggression and loudness attack listeners with brute (粗暴的) force.___16___
The cold and sometimes severe climate has contributed to the population’s interest in heavier forms of rock. “When someone is surrounded by cold and dark for long periods of time, it is only natural that some form of depression will start to set in,” the website A Metal State Of Mind noted. “How do many Finns combat the depression, release the negative energy, and make themselves feel more positive?___17___”
According to Medium, most Finnish people are emotionally restrained (克制的). Whatever emotions — soft or hard — they feel, they keep them inside. “I feel that the emotional introversion (内向性) also has to do with the fact that we often want to keep things private.___18___One has to appear ‘strong’ at all costs,” Ida-Katharina Kiljander, one of the lead singers of the Oulu-based metal band Mournful Lines, told Medium.
___19___
“The reason why heavy metal might reflect the Finnish mentality is probably because we are so private that it is difficult to discuss our feelings, but still we need an outlet to deal with these negative emotions,” explained Kiljander.
___20___Those who tend to keep their emotions inside may find themselves drawn to a medium or genre that allows them to do the opposite — something that Finland has made loud and clear with its growing number of heavy metal fans.
A. However, heavy metal music offers a way to express these emotions.
B. Every year, thousands of “metalheads” gather at Finland’s many metal festivals, especially during summer.
C. But why does this seemingly extreme form of music thrive in the Nordic country of Finland?
D. It has not been socially acceptable to show great emotions, for example anger or sadness.
E. Just as the Chinese proverb goes, “Where you live makes you who you are.”
F. Emotional introversion is a form of learned behavior in Finland and the roots go back quite far in history.
G. There is no one form of music more tailored to the release of the negative more than metal.

Then I cut down on my___30___more and more, until a___31___day consisted of half a teaspoon of nonfat yogurt in the morning and a cup of grape juice at night.
But my poor___32___began to cause me to lose___33___. Then one night, like many nights before, I couldn't sleep, and felt as though my heart might beat out of my chest. I tried to___34___, but I couldn’t. The beating became so rapid and so strong that I could no longer___35___. What I had done to diet nearly caused me to have a heart attack. I stood up, and immediately fell down. I was really___36___, and I knew I needed help. My roommate rushed me to the___37___, and then I began the long road to my___38___.

And more importantly, a sense of what was true about myself got my life back on track with reality. I realized that, with my___39___of trying to be "perfect" on the___40___, I had sacrificed who I was on the inside. What I know now is, we are — each and every one of us — already perfect.
