六、阅读理解
文章大意：本文主要介绍ChatGPT虽然可以输出文章，但它不是作者，作品必须来自我们的大脑，ChatGPT是只起着提供假设、设计实验和理解结果的工具。

13. In less than 2 months, the artificial intelligence (AI) program ChatGPT has become a cultural sensation (轰动). ChatGPT is developed with a
technique called Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback to train the language model, enabling it to automatically create text based on written prompts. I asked it to rewrite the first scene of the classic American play Death of a Salesman. The output was an amusing conversation. This is certainly fun, but there are serious implications for generative AI programs like ChatGPT in science and academia.
Many concerns relate to how ChatGPT will change education. It certainly can write essays about a range of topics. I gave it both an exam and a final project. It did well finding factual answers, but the scholarly writing still has a long way to go. If anything, the implications for education may push academics to rethink their courses in innovative ways and give assignments that aren’t easily solved by AI. That could be for the best.
More worrisome are the effects of ChatGPT on writing scientific papers. In a recent study abstract created by ChatGPT were submitted to academic reviewers, who only caught 63% of these fakes. That’s a lot of AI-generated text that could find its way into the literature soon.
The text written by ChatGPT is not acceptable. An AI program cannot be an author. Still, according to Editorial Policies, text generated by ChatGPT (or any other AI tools) cannot be used in the work, nor can figures, images, or graphics be the products of such tools. Breaking these policies will be considered scientific misconduct (学术不端) no different from plagiarism (剽窃) of existing works.
The scientific record is ultimately one of the human efforts of struggling with important questions. Machines play an important role, but as tools for the people giving the hypotheses (假设), designing the experiments and making sense of the results. Ultimately the product must come from-and be expressed by-the wonderful computer in our heads.
1. What does the underlined word “implications“ probably mean in Paragraph1?
A．Competitions.
B．Incidents.
C．Restrictions.
D．Effects.
2. What could be ChatGPT’s benefit for education, if any?
A．It could help better the scholarly writing.
B．It could write essays about varieties of topics.
C．It could be used to design difficult assignments.
D．It could urge academics to make improvements.
3. What can be inferred about ChatGPT?
A．It is welcomed by academics.
B．It may cause scientific misconduct.
C．It is basically useless for scientific research.
D．It works greatly to the advantage of education.
4. Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A．ChatGPT Is Fun, But Not an Author
B．ChatGPT Has Become a Cultural Sensation
C．ChatGPT Will Change Our Way of Education
D．ChatGPT Plays an Important Role in Science

So what is rewilding?
Imagine our natural homes growing instead of shrinking. Imagine species (物种)diversifying instead of declining. That's rewilding. Rewilding is ecological restoration. Rewilding offers hope for wildlife, humans and the planet.
Why is rewilding important and necessary?
●Our natural ecology is broken. The places where you would expect wildlife to exist have been reduced to wet deserts. The seabed has been destroyed and there have been no livingcreatures any more.
●Our wildlife is disappearing. Many wonderful species have declined over the past century. We've lost more of our large animals than any European country.
●We need keystone species. These vital species, including top predators (食肉动物), drive ecological processes. Their loss has worsened our living systems.
●N ature looks after us. Good natural ecology can provide us with clean air and water, prevent flooding and store carbon. Rewilding can leave the world in a better state than it is today.
What are challenges?
As a long-term project, our “rewilding britain” has its challenges. Many people are notinterested, because we have got used to the lack of native forests. Many farmers oppose the idea. They thought it a crazy idea to bring back predators because they would start killing farmanimals. It takes time to educate them. Above all, we need money! So we need your help!
M ake a donation.
Help us bring back living systems and restore wild nature!
With your help we can. . .
●Open up new chances for rewilding and push for change.
●Develop tools to educate, influence and spread the word.
Thanks for your support.

文章主要介绍四幅艺术品杰作背后的故事。

15. Great paintings evoke feelings of awe and wonder centuries after they were created. Often the inspiration for a masterpiece came from something very specific: a person the artist knew, a personal experience or a well-known story.
M ona Lisa
It is an oil painting by Leonardo Da Vinci. There has been much speculation about who the woman in the Mona Lisa is, due in part to her mysterious smile. Most scholars nowadays identify the woman as Lisa delGiocondo, the wife of a wealthy silk merchant. Her husband most likely commissioned the painting to celebrate the birth of their second son.
Whistler’s M other
James Abbott McNeill Whistler originally planned to use a model for this painting and to have her standing. The model did not show up for the appointment, so he asked his mother to stand in. Since she found standing for so long uncomfortable, he changed plans and painted her sitting.
T he Starry Night
Vincent van Gogh was a talented artist who struggled with mental health problems throughout his short life. Arguably his most famous painting, The Starry Night depicts a view from his window in an asylum where he stayed because of these mental health issues. V an Gogh painted 21 versions of this view but he may have been surprised to learn that it was the one destined for fame.
Portrait of Dr. Gachet
V an Gogh was eventually released from the asylum, so he needed a new place to stay. His brother connected him with Dr. Gachet, who took V an Gogh in. At first, the artist was skeptical of the doctor’s ability to help him because Dr. Gachet also struggled with mental illness. But just two days after expressing these doubts to his brother, V an Gogh wrote to his sister that he considered the doctor a true friend. V an Gogh ultimately painted Portrait of Dr. Gachet in honor of his friend.
1. Who is Lisa delGiocondo?
A．An unknown model.
B．A pregnant woman.
C．Leonardo Da Vinci’s wife.
D．The wife of a rich businessman.
2. What do The Starry Night and Portrait of Dr. Gachet have in common?
A．They are works by the same artist.
B．They are both about scenery.
C．They are in honor of friends.
D．They are pained at the asylum.
3. What is the text about?
A．World-famous artists.
B．Western painting styles.
C．Stories behind great paintings.
D．Painting process of masterpieces.
16. The end of the school year is in sight - Christmas cards， candy canes and of course， end of year reports．
While most parents welcome an assessment of their kids' performance， they do not expect their own input to be evaluated． But a school in the UK is changing that． As well as assessing their students， they are dishing out grades to mums and dads． Parents that are really involved in their kids' education are rewarded with an A， and parents that haven't done their bit get a disappointing D．
The school， Greasley Beauvale Primary in Nottinghamshire， uses standard such as whether mums and dads have attended school events such as plays and parent teacher evenings to decide on the grade．The school's principal，Donna Chambers，said that the scheme had been well received．
"There were some critics． In spite of it， between 15 percent and 20 percent of parents started out in the lower categories but now that has been reduced to just two per cent，" she explained．
Chambers hopes that the scheme will help motivate parental involvement． "The system is important because you have got to get the parents on
board from day one． That one hour initial conversation saying they could improve will make a difference to the rest of that child's academic life"，she said．
But while the scheme may be well intentioned， it is likely to be connected with parent shaming． There are lots of reasons why some mums and dads might not be involved in school activities such as work commitments， looking after younger children or caring for elderly relatives．And of course， being involved in your kid's education doesn't begin and end at school．There is a lot that goes on behind the scenes from helping with homework to keeping uniforms freshly laundered． And what about all the parents who stayed up sewing special costumes at the last minute Surely that earns a gold star instead of a grade!
1. What do schools usually do at the end of the school year ______
A．Evaluating kids' performances．
B．Making Christmas cards．
C．Dividing candies．
D．Grading parents．
2. What does the school's principal Chambers say about the scheme？ ______
A．It uses a new way to evaluate kids．
B．It has gained much acceptance．
C．It gives parents further education．
D．It improves kids' motivation for learning．
3. What does the author think of parents being involved in kids' education？ ______
A．It adds to parents' burden．
B．It brings shame to parents．
C．It means far more than being graded．
D．It increases parents' commitment to education．
4. What is the passage mainly about？ ______
A．There is too much stress for parents about their children's academic life．
B．Parents as well as their children are on the list of the year school report．
C．Parents should be involved in children's school life．
D．Whether a parent is excellent depends on the grade he gets．
