Dear Peter,
I’m Li Hua, one of your students. I’m writing to render what I’ve found about students’ interest in our English Corner.
Aimed at cultivating students’ interest in English learning, your English Corner undoubtedly offers us students a great platform to enhance our English proficiency. However, I’ve found students lacking enthusiasm to get involved lately. I think it would be a good idea to showcase the unique charm of English Corner by adding more interactive activities like English Drama Performance. Additionally, why not undertake a survey to know about what really interests students？
I would appreciate it if you could make a bit of change, in which case, the English Corner will surely become one of the fondest memories rooted in our hearts.
Yours truly,
Li Hua

Nearing the doorway, Jenny took a deep breath. When she pushed the door open and entered the house, she found her mother was not in. Tired and sad, she sank down onto the sofa.“Where could my mother be ” she wondered.“Was she still angry with me ” Again, the scene of the quarrel appeared in her mind. She remembered her rudeness to her mother. Realizing that her mother really cared a lot about her, she buried her face deeply in her hands, with tears rolling down her cheeks.
A gentle touch on her hair called her mind back. She raised her head and saw the familiar face of her mother“You are home! I'm so worried about you that I've been looking for you.” she said, tired and relieved Jenny couldn't help throwing herself into her mother's arms,“Mum, I'm so sorry and thank you for all you have done for me. It is you who bring me up and provide love and support for me.”Hearing this, her mother smiled, patting her back gently. Quarrels are not unusual between children and parents. But communication is the secret to understanding.

Text 1 M: Yesterday Aunt Helen gave Lily a nice toy car. But Lily gave it to Frank.
W: I know. Eddie told me about it.
Text 2 W: Excuse me，I'm booked on Flight 645 to London which leaves at 8:45. And the check in time isn't until 7:35.
Would it be possible to check my bags in a little earlier
M: Sorry, madam. I'm afraid you have to wait until 7:35.
Text 3W: Can you and your dad take the trousers back to the shop, Oliver
M: But I love these. Look at the big pockets. They are great for school. And they are comfortable.
W: I know, but they cost too much.
Text 4W: This bill lists the cotton shirts as 25 dollars, but they should have been listed as 30 dollars. Now we have to send another note to the store.
M: Don't worry. Anyone can make a mistake.
W: Thanks for your understanding.
Text 5 W: We have to leave now. Mom and Dad want us to go shopping with them.
M: Do I have to go with you It's so relaxing here in the sun.
W: Yeah. But Dad says we're going to go to a fast-food shop and get some ice cream.
M: OK, then. I'm just going to have one last swim though.
Text 6 M: Could you tell me how to get there We 're coming by train.
W: Certainly. When you get out of the train station, you'll see the library right across the street. Just walk down to the corner.
M: Do I go right or left out of the train station
W: Go right and walk down to the corner. Right there on the corner you'll see a bank and across the street on the opposite corner is the post office. There are some office buildings across the street, too. Anyhow, you just go right at the corner, pass the car park and you'll see the museum right there in the middle of the block.
Text 7 W: We're having a fashion show at school again.

searching and I’ve found a perfect place. It's called Shepsite. It's a huge site and it's near a lovely lake. There's a
basketball hall and a football field. But what interests me is its large swimming pool.
W: How about the cost
M: They said they would give me a good price.
W: If I remember correctly, we paid f5 a head last year.

The questions generated by ChatGPT are distinct. Many of them are surprising, and some of them are highly valuable.”（我现在正在写关于音乐意识的一章，ChatGPT产生了很多很棒的问题，比如“关于意识在音乐中的作用，什么是好问题 ”通常，ChatGPT会产生10-20个新问题，其中包括一些即使经过大量研究也可能不会发生在我身上的问题。ChatGPT生成的问题是不同的。其中许多是令人惊讶的，其中一些是非常有价值的。）可知，作者使用ChatGPT的目的是寻求音乐上的帮助。故选A项。

I have found a unique way of brainstorming by getting the artificial intelligence program ChatGPT to generate interesting questions and answers.”（头脑风暴通常意味着让一群人聚在一起产生新的想法。我找到了一种独特的头脑风暴方式，让人工智能程序ChatGPT生成有趣的问题和答案。）可知，文中作者分享了自己的ChatGPT使用体验以及一些相关的观点，所以本文最有可能出自个人博客。故选D项。
七选五 36．C 37．B 38．D 39．G 40．F
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了音乐对人的各种好处。
36．由上文“Music can relax the mind, energize the body, and even help people better manage pain.

(音乐疗法是一种有时用来促进情绪健康、帮助患者应对压力和提高心理健康的干预措施)”可知，下文再次印证了音乐对心理影响强大，故C项“The psychological effects of music can be powerful (音乐的心理影响是强大的)”能承上启下，符合语境。故选C。

So next time you are working on a task, turn on a little music in the background for a boost in your mental performance. (研究表明，背景音乐可以提高心理表现。播放更积极的音乐可以提高处理速度。所以，下次你在做一项任务时，在背景中播放一些音乐，以提高你的心理表现)”可知，本段主要叙述音乐可以提高心理表现，故B项“Music can improve mental performance (音乐可以改善心理表现)”与空格处后的内容相呼应，可以作为本段小标题。故选B。
38．由上文“Music can be a helpful weight-loss tool. To lose weight, listen to soft music and dim the lights. According to one study, people eating at low-lit restaurants where soft music was played consumed less food. (音乐是一种有益的减肥工具。为了减肥，听轻柔的音乐，调暗灯光。根据一项研究，在灯光昏暗、播放柔和音乐的餐厅用餐的人消耗的食物更少)”可知，下面要说跟“音乐和灯光”有关的话题，故D项“Music and lighting help create a more relaxing setting (音乐和灯光有助于创造一个更轻松的环境)”能承接上文，符合语境，故选D。
39．由上文“Music can help you sleep better (音乐可以帮助你睡得更好)”和下文“While there are many approaches to treating this problem research has demonstrated that listening to relaxing classical music can be a safe, effective, and affordable therapy.

40．空处位于段末，应承接上文。由上文“Research has shown that music can be very helpful in the management of pain. One study of fibromyalgia (纤维性肌痛) patients found that those who listened to music for one hour a day experienced a significant reduction in pain. (研究表明，音乐对治疗疼痛有很大帮助。一项针对纤维肌痛患者的研究发现，那些每天听一小时音乐的人疼痛明显减轻)”可知，音乐可以帮助病人减轻疼痛，F项“Such a result suggests music therapy can help treat some diseases (这样的结果表明音乐疗法可以帮助治疗一些疾病)”符合语境。故选F。

阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的 A 、B 、C 、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A
With over 600 castles, unique cultural traditions and dramatic coastline, it’s shocking that only a small percentage of visitors to the United Kingdom set foot in Wales. Here’s what to know for planning your trip to Wales.
Planning Your Trip
Best Time to Visit: Wales is at its best from the late spring through early summer. You can expect a fair bit of rain, but also beautiful flowers then. Wales’s mild, damp climate means that there’s only a small variation among temperatures throughout the year.
Language: English and Welsh, the latter of which has seen a resurgence (复苏) in recent years. According to a survey conducted by the Welsh government in early 2023, less than 30 percent of the population can speak Welsh. The government aims to have 1 million Welsh speakers by 2050.
Getting Around: Wales is a tiny country—you can drive from Cardiff, along the Southern coast, to Angelsey, an island in the north, in about 4.5 hours. Wales is also supported by an excellent network of cycling and rail connections.
Things to Do
Activities can include everything from visiting the many famous television and film sites to simply lying on one of Wales’s sandy beaches.
● Spend at least a day or two in Cardiff, Wales’s largest city. This university town has excellent nightlife and restaurants and is also home to the National Museum of Wales, which houses one of Europe’s best collections of Impressionist art.
● Wales is a surfing hot spot, with surfers taking to the sea in Whitesands and Freshwater West in Pembrokeshire, Oxwich Bay, and Llangennith in Gower, among others. Want to get your feet wet

Animal lovers visiting the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda in Ya’an of Sichuan province earlier this week were in for a pleasant surprise. They got to see cuddly （讨人 喜 爱 的 ） pandas and watched animal-themed films as part of the 9th Ya’an Panda and Nature Film Week that concluded on Friday.
Sponsored by the China Film Archive and the Ya’an government, the event, which began on Monday, held a series of activities, including a children's film development symposium ( 研讨会), film screenings and displays showing paintings of giant pandas.
One of the highlights of the event was that 1,735 films from 109 countries and regions were submitted, of which 104 were selected for the film week, according to its organizing committee.
These selected films featured themes such as animal protection, the environment, rainforest ecology, wildlife and caring for endangered species. Thanks to the recommendation of experts from various fields and representatives from the film industry, 42 of the films were shown to the public at 48 sites in Ya’an from Monday to Friday, with 57 free screenings, the committee had said.

The event aimed to promote the concepts of green technology, ecology, low-carbon emissions and environmental protection. The inherent（固有的） green status of Ya'an is quite in line with the green, low-carbon and environmentally friendly status advocated by the film week, said Lin Siwei, deputy director of the China Film Archive.

Brainstorming usually means getting a group of people together to generate( new ideas. I have found a unique way of brainstorming by getting the artificial intelligence program ChatGPT to generate interesting questions and answers.
I am now working on a chapter on musical consciousness（意识） and ChatGPT has generated great questions like “What are good questions about the role of consciousness in music ” Typically, ChatGPT produces 10-20 new questions including ones that probably would not have occurred to me even with quite a lot of research. The questions generated by ChatGPT are distinct. Many of them are surprising, and some of them are highly valuable. Therefore, ChatGPT’s question generation seems to me to qualify as creative.
After ChatGPT generates a list of questions, you can get it to answer one question at a time. This process of getting ChatGPT to provide questions and answers could go on and on and on, although some repetition will turn up. The questions are always interesting, but I don’t trust the answers until I can check them out in reliable sources because ChatGPT has a bad reputation for making stuff up.
I call this new method “ChatStorming”, but it raises some difficult questions: the first is whether it is plagiarism(剽窃)to use answers provided by ChatGPT. ChatGPT has no copyright to its materials. However, it would still be intellectually dishonest to claim the writing produced by ChatGPT as your own. The second: Is ChatGPT truly capable of generating new ideas ChatGPT is skillful at producing creative questions, but how about concepts, hypotheses(假设), and methods To my astonishment, the results are definitely novel(新的) and surprising, but I don’t yet know whether they can also be valuable. It will take much testing and evaluation to determine whether ChatGPT and even better models like GPT-4 can be creative with new ideas as well as questions.
A third question is what it would take for a large language model to dominate humans. Large language models are major advances in AI that can further improve human creativity, but they are to be confirmed(证实).
32 ．For what purpose did the author use ChatGPT
A ．To seek some musical help. B ．To improve his music taste.
C ．To question its safety. D ．To study its limitations.
33 ．What can we learn about ChatGPT’s answers from the third paragraph
第 5 页 共 8 页
A ．The author refuses to accept them.
B ．The author can easily understand them.
C ．The author thinks highly of them.
D ．The author is cautious(谨慎的) of accepting them.
34 ．How does the author view ChatGPT according to the last two paragraphs
A ．It can be used as freely as possible.
B ．It can provide more valuable methods.
C ．Its creativity requires to be tested.
D ．It can benefit humans a lot.
35 ．Where is the text most probably from
A ．A technology report. B ．A product introduction.
C ．A natural science magazine. D ．A personal blog.
