This smart program can solve math problems, write code, and answer questions like top models such as OpenAI’s GPT-4, but it costs much less to build. The team spent only $5. 58 million (1/70 of OpenAI’s cost) and used 2,048 computer chips for two months. This shows that good ideas can beat big money.DeepSeek-R1 learns by trying many times and getting better, like how students practice maths. Other AIs need lots of prepared examples, but R1 improves by itself. For example, in a global math test, it got 79.8% right, slightly higher than Open AI’s model. A simple version of R1 can even run on low-cost computers, helping schools and small companies.DeepSeek-R1 is free to use and change. On its first day online, over 19,000 programmers worldwide started projects to study it. A German scientist said experiments with R1 cost 10 instead of 300 with other AIs. Even Meta (a famous U.S. tech company) top scientist said, “This kind of free AI could change the world.”US tech companies are worried. Meta plans to spend over $65 billion on AI research. Experts say China is catching up fast. A report in Nature magazine called R1 a “big step forward”, proving that smart ideas beat expensive tools.As a DeepSeek engineer said, “We want AI to be a friend, not something only rich people can use.” With R1, China shows the world that great things come from new ideas and hard work, not just money.16.The first paragraph is mainly developed by ______.A.providing examples B.listing numbersC.following the order of time D.comparing R1 with other AIs17.What do the underlined words mean in paragraph 2 A.It becomes better through practice.

B.To compare RI with Meta’s AI.C.To encourage students to study math. D.To show that expensive AI models have no value.20.What is the main purpose of the passage A.To explain how computer chips work.B.To introduce a low-cost AI model from China.C.To encourage students to become programmers.D.To compare Chinese and American AI technologies.CThe Sahara Desert is the largest hot desert in the world.
