College and high-school teachers are expressing concern about ChatGPT, an AI program that allows people with limited writing skills to create high-quality texts. It calls into question how and why we teach writing at all. If AI can do a fairly good job at most writing tasks, why spend so much time learning writing in school
In fact, learning to write goes beyond just mastering grammar, punctuation, and sentence structure. It involves much more. For one thing, it’s about learning to turn a loose set of thoughts into a clear line of reasoning — a skill that is useful for everyone, not just those who enjoy writing or need to do a lot of it for work.
Learning to write also trains your imagination to construct the person who will read your words. It puts you in relation to someone you may not know, someone who may even not exist. When you learn to write, you learn to meet their needs in an unfamiliar context. Even ordinary assignments teach students to predict what another person knows and expects.
Writing is never simply self-expression. It’s expression to a specific audience for a specific purpose. In some cases, like a love letter, a writer knows their audience very well. In others, the audience is every bit a work of the imagination as a novel’s characters are. Writers, then, should give up trying to address the public at large, but should imagine that a friend, though not the closest friend, is listening to our talk.
When this act of imagination is done well, a reader can feel deeply understood, as if a stranger has told them some previously unknown truth about themselves. That’s how I felt reading “Difference Maker” — an essay about parenthood. While our situations were unique, naming the problem provided a deeper understanding.
It seems unavoidable that large-language models of AI will allow us to offload some of the writing tasks that students learn in school. But we can’t allow ourselves to lose the capacity to empathize (共情) with distant strangers at just the moment when we’re more able than ever to communicate with them.
24．What is teachers’ concern about ChatGPT
A．It’s a challenge to apply it to teaching. B．It’s hard to grade a paper written by it.
C．It limits students’ imagination and creativity. D．It questions the necessity of teaching writing.
25．What does the author think of learning to write
A．It helps with logical thinking. B．It is a basic skill for everyone.
C．It focuses on correct expression. D．It is closely related to social skills.
26．What makes writing effective according to the text
A．Expressing oneself. B．Targeting intended readers.
C．Conveying imaginative ideas. D．Creating attractive characters.
27．What may be a suitable title for the text
A．What AI Can’t Teach the Writing Students
B．ChatGPT Writing VS Traditional Writing
C．Never Lose the Capacity for Empathy
D．What Is the Future for AI Writing
C
Recently, my husband and three kids were playing in the Mediterranean, swimming and floating in the picture-perfect sea. It was extremely beautiful in Majorca, Spain. The way the sun danced across the water and how the blue horizon was dotted with storybook sailboats were such beautiful scenes. I almost couldn’t believe my eyes.
My husband and I always dreamed about taking our kids on a trip around the world. It was something we always wanted to do “one day”. It was one of the things we talked at length about, when we imagined our life with the children we hoped we would have.
Fourteen years later, we had three boys who were growing up faster by the day. It was time to make good on those plans.
We spent dozens of hours discussing, researching and planning. We had to learn how to “road school” our kids and arrange time off from work. We renewed our passports, and then packed our bags. We showed our kids the world. It was about experiencing the dozens of flights and trains and taxis together. We showed them how wonderful, how diverse, and how amazing the world is. We wanted them to learn all that we had learned ourselves, through our own travels as young adults.
But there was something more than that: What we really wanted is to slow down time. We wanted the days to last a bit longer, and the weeks to take their time. The years with our children are going too fast. We wanted to put the brakes on (阻止) our busy lives for a year, and just be with our kids. We wanted a break from the daily morning routine of making lunches, eating breakfast and rushing out of the door in time for school. We needed a family time-out.
It was a wonderful two-month trip in Europe, full of incredible moments. And when we look back at our lives, I know we’ll be glad we did it. I know we’ll be happy that this is a chapter of the story of our family.
28．What was the author’s attitude toward the trip when planning it
A．Worried. B．Calm. C．Stressed. D．Eager.
29．What does the underlined part “make good on” in Paragraph 3 probably mean

B．To allow her children to see the world.

D．To enable her children to learn something out of class.
31．How did the author feel about their two-month stay in Europe
A．Tired. B．Satisfied. C．Inspired. D．Disappointed.
D
Earlier this year, I had a chance to go to space. I was really excited and made full preparations for it.
Finally, the day arrived. With all the noise, we lifted off. I could see Earth disappearing. As we ascended (上升), I was at once aware of pressure. The force of gravity pulled at me. There was an instrument that told us how many g’s (重力加速度的倍数) we were experiencing. At two g’s, I tried to raise my arm, and I could barely do so. At three g’s, I felt my face being pushed down into my seat. I thought, “Will I pass out How many g’s can my ninety-year-old body deal with ” Suddenly, no g’s. Weightlessness. We were floating.
We got out of our safety belt and began to float around. And I got to the window as quickly as possible to see what was out there.
I looked down, and I could see the hole that our spaceship had left in the atmosphere. I continued my self-guided tour and turned my head to face the other direction, staring into space. I saw a cold, dark, black emptiness. It was unlike any blackness you can see or feel on Earth. My excitement disappeared, and I felt really down. I turned back toward the light of home. I could see the curvature (曲度) of the Earth, the white of the clouds and the blue of the sky. It was Mother Earth.
The contrast between the coldness of space and the warm nurturing of Earth below filled me with great sadness. In space, I had the strongest feeling ever that Earth is the only home we have. But we were doing many things that threatened our survival on Earth. I know we should devote ourselves to our planet and love all around us.
32．How did the author think of gradual changes in g’s
A．He found he could raise arms easily.
B．He felt his face was pressed against the safety belt.
C．He thought he would pass out because he was too old.
D．He believed he could deal with the gravity for he was strong.
33．What did the author see when floating in space
A．The black hole in space. B．A cold and white emptiness.
C．Other beautiful planets in space. D．The outline of the earth with white clouds.
34．Which of the following best describes the author’s trip
A．The author felt extremely lonely.
B．The author found the trip very boring.
C．The trip was inconsistent with the author’s expectation.
D．The trip filled the author’s fellows with depression.
35．What can we infer from the author’s trip to space
A．We should live in harmony with aliens.
B．We should value the earth and protect it.
C．We should try to move to the other planets.
D．We should consider escaping from the earth.

Our holiday starts in Heysham, where your tour manager will meet you, then you’ll travel by ferry to the Isle of Man. Some people prefer to fly from Luton instead, and another popular option is to go by train to Liverpool and take a ferry from there. On day 1 you’ll arrive in time for a short introduction by your tour manager, followed by dinner in the hotel. On day 2 you’ll take the coach to the small town of Peel, on the way calling in at the Tynwald Exhibition. On day 3 we have a trip to the mountain Snaefell. You will board an electric train which takes you to the fishing village of Laxey. Lunch will be in the cafe, giving you fantastic views of the island. Day 4 is free for you to explore, using the pass which we’ll give you. So, you won’t have to pay for travel on local transport. Or you might just want to take it easy in Douglas and perhaps do a little light shopping. The last full day, day 5 will begin with a ride on the steam railway. After some time to explore, a coach will take you to a small island just off the coast. And on day 6 it’s back to the ferry — or the airport, if you flew to the island — and time to go home.
