I opened my car window and called out “Ma’am! Ma’am!” The only lady in the parking lot looked around until she saw me. “I just wanted to tell how nice you look today,” I said. “The colors you have on are beautiful on you.” Her face registered surprise for a second, and then she smiled. “Thank you!” she called back. Her final steps to her car seemed lighter, and I smiled to myself.
I grew up with very few cheerleaders in my own life. When I was in the middle of fighting a battle for my life, I had been confirmed depression, along with anxiety. It has taken many years and more effort and determination than I thought I was capable of recovering from this illness. With no cheerleaders in my court, I fought this battle alone. I am proud of the progress I have made thus far. There are times when I thought, if only I had had someone to hold me and say, “Susan, I believe in you. You can do this, and I’ll be there every step of the way.” I wonder how much sooner I would have recovered. I’ll never know.
So I have made it a point in recent years to praise people, especially women and girls. Instead of just thinking that someone looks nice or did a great job, I say it out loud. It doesn’t take long, and it’s easy. So, I wonder, why don’t more people do this As women, we have learned from our role models to be quiet. We downplay (淡化) our own achievements even when we do receive a rare compliment (恭维). Now, when I compliment someone and she denies, I say to her, “Just say thank you.” Most women are relieved that they don’t have to deny the compliment; they can accept the praise without guilt.
Cheerleading doesn’t require any skills. It only takes a few seconds, although you do have to remind yourself to do it. Eventually, it becomes a habit.
4. How did the lady feel after hearing the author’s praise
A. Delighted. B. Anxious.
C. Relaxed. D. Worried.
5. What made the author become a cheerleader
A. Her experiences.
B. Her habit.
C. Her personality.
D. Her ambition.
6. What does the author hope when she praises someone
A. She can be rewarded.
B. She can be appreciated.
C. They can accept the praise.
D. They should say something.
7. Which of the following best describes the author

C. Outgoing. D. Honest.
【答案】4. A 5. A 6. C 7. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者在患有心理疾病期间独自奋战，痊愈后一直坚持赞美他人，尤其是女性和女孩的故事。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“Her face registered surprise for a second, and then she smiled. (她的脸上露出惊讶的神色，然后她笑了)”和“Her final steps to her car seemed lighter (她走向车的最后几步似乎轻快了一些)”可知，这位女士先是惊讶，后来脚步变得轻快。由此可推知，她在听到作者的赞美后很开心。故选A项。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“With no cheerleaders in my court, I fought this battle alone. I am proud of the progress I have made thus far. There are times when I thought, if only I had had someone to hold me and say, “Susan, I believe in you. You can do this, and I’ll be there every step of the way.” I wonder how much sooner I would have recovered. (我的球场上没有啦啦队员，我独自战斗。我为我迄今取得的进步感到自豪。有时候我想，要是有人抱着我说：‘Susan，我相信你。你可以做到的，我会全程陪伴你。’我好奇我能多快恢复过来)”和第三段中“So I have made it a point in recent years to praise people, especially women and girls. (因此，近年来，我一直强调要赞美别人，尤其是女性和女孩)”可知，虽然作者为自己独自完成战斗，取得进步感到自豪，但她觉得如果当时有人鼓励她，她可以更快地恢复，因此她后来坚持赞美别人。由此可知，作者的经历让她选择成为一名生活中的“啦啦队员”。故选A项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Now, when I compliment someone and she denies, I say to her, “Just say thank you.” Most women are relieved that they don’t have to deny the compliment; they can accept the praise without guilt. (现在，当我赞美一个人而她否认时，我对她说：‘说声谢谢就行了。’大多数女性都松了一口气，因为她们不必否认这些赞美；她们可以毫无内疚地接受赞美)”可知，在作者赞美他人时，她希望她们能毫无内疚地接受赞美。故选C项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第三段中“So I have made it a point in recent years to praise people, especially women and girls. Instead of just thinking that someone looks nice or did a great job, I say it out loud. (因此，近年来，我一直强调要赞美别人，尤其是女性和女孩。我不会仅仅认为某人看起来很漂亮或工作做得很好，而是大声说出来。)”可知，文章主要讲述了作者在患有心理疾病期间独自奋战，痊愈后她意识到赞美的重要性，一直坚持赞美他人，尤其是女性和女孩。由此可推知，作者是一个关爱他人的人。故选A项。
C
Between 1945 and 2000, educators employed a fairly uniform approach. The teacher was the sun in the classroom, and all lessons and activities centered around him or her. Educators stressed the importance of discipline and obedience(服从) within the classroom, and students were expected to follow very rigid standards for behavior and academic performance. The stated goal of this model was to ensure fairness by applying the same expectations; however, the result was that only a few students succeeded while many others were left behind.
When computers and Internet technology entered the classroom a few decades ago, another pattern appeared and progressive educators immediately saw the opportunity to change the way school worked. Instead of needing to focus on the teachers for the vast majority of the day, students could use computers, websites, and even games to learn new materials and improve their skills and knowledge. Not all educators welcomed this shift, however, as some believed it took power and responsibility away from the teachers and cheapened the educational experience for learners.
Over the last decade, two distinct camps of educators have emerged. Tech advocates stress that computers and Internet technology allow students to learn at their own pace in an environment that makes them feel comfortable, while the traditional classroom sets a pace that many learners can’t keep up with and often makes students feel uncomfortable. Traditionalists, on the other hand, believe that over-reliance on tech limits students’ ability to develop their own knowledge and skills and does little to prepare them for the realities of being adults in the real world.
Regrettably, the inability of these two parties to find an agreement has prevented the growth of our education system. We must learn from what worked in the past while adopting the best of our new technologies to create an education system that reflects our modern world. If we can’t get all our teachers on the same page, then we will be at risk of failing future generations.
8. Who can probably learn better under the 1945 -2000 model of education
A. Lisa who tends to read by herself. B. Michael who disciplines himself.
C. Kate who can focus on listening for long. D. Tom who prefers hands-on learning.
9. Why do some educators prefer the second education pattern
A. It allows for different learning styles. B. It has the same hope for students.
C It fires students’ enthusiasm for learning. D. It reduces teachers’ level of stress.
10. What message is conveyed in paragraph 3
A. Two of a trade never agree. B. Everyone thinks in his way.
C. Every potter praises his pot. D. One’s words reflect one’s thinking.
11. What is the author’s understanding of a good education system
A. It’s full of well-trained subject teachers. B. It’s an accurate mirror of the real world.
C. It’s inclusive and accessible to all students. D. It’s an integration of tradition and modernity.
【答案】8. C 9. A 10. B 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了两种不同的教育模式的特点以及人们对它们的不同看法。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Between 1945 and 2000, educators employed a fairly uniform approach. The teacher was the sun in the classroom, and all lessons and activities centered around him or her.( 1945年至2000年间，教育工作者采用了相当统一的方法。老师是教室里的太阳，所有的课程和活动都以他或她为中心。)”可知，1945至2000年间，老师是教室里的太阳，所有的课程和活动都围绕着老师进行，由此可推知在课堂上能长时间专注听课的学生可能会学得更好一些。因此能长时间集中注意力倾听的凯特很可能学得好。故选C。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Instead of needing to focus on the teachers for the vast majority of the day, students could use computers, websites, and even games to learn new materials and improve their skills and knowledge.(学生们可以利用电脑、网站甚至游戏来学习新材料，提高他们的技能和知识，而不是每天大部分时间都盯着老师。)”可知，在第二种教育模式下，学生们不必在一天的大部分时间里都关注老师，他们可以使用电脑、网站、甚至游戏来学习新材料、提高技能和增长知识。由此可推知，因为这种教育模式使不同的学习方式成为可能，所以一些教育工作者比较喜欢。故选A。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Tech advocates stress that computers and Internet technology allow students to learn at their own pace in an environment that makes them feel comfortable, while the traditional classroom sets a pace that many learners can’t keep up with and often makes students feel uncomfortable. Traditionalists, on the other hand, believe that over-reliance on tech limits students’ ability to develop their own knowledge and skills and does little to prepare them for the realities of being adults in the real world. (科技倡导者强调，计算机和互联网技术允许学生在一个让他们感到舒适的环境中按照自己的节奏学习，而传统课堂设定的节奏让许多学习者跟不上，经常让学生感到不舒服。另一方面，传统主义者认为，过度依赖科技限制了学生发展自己的知识和技能的能力，几乎没有帮助他们做好面对即将在现实生活中成为成年人的现实的准备。。)”可知，科技支持者认为，计算机和互联网技术使学生能够在一个让他们感到舒适的环境中按自己的节奏学习，而传统的教室设定了一个许多学习者无法跟上的节奏，经常会让学生感到不舒服。传统主义者认为，对科技的过度依赖限制了学生增长知识和提高技能的能力，几乎没有帮助他们做好面对即将在现实生活中成为成年人的现实的准备。由此可知，就技术而言，科技支持者和传统主义者有不同的看法，也就是说仁者见仁，智者见智。A项“同行是冤家”；B项“仁者见仁，智者见智”；C项“王婆卖瓜，自卖自夸”；D项“言为心声”。故选B。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“We must learn from what worked in the past while adopting the best of our new technologies to create an education system that reflects our modern world.(我们必须从过去的成功经验中学习，同时采用我们最好的新技术来创建一个反映我们现代世界的教育体系。)”可知，我们必须从过去的经验中学习，同时采用最新技术，创造一个反映我们现代世界的教育体制。由此可推知，在作者看来，一个好的教育体制需要融合传统与现代。故选D。
D
In one horrible film plot, Al eventually outsmarts humans and takes over computers and factories. In another, large language models (LLMs) of the sort that power generative AI like ChatGPT give bad guys the know-how to create destructive cyberweapons.
It is time to think hard about these film plots, not because they have become more probable but because policymakers around the world are considering measures to guard against them. The idea that AI could drive humans to extinction is speculative—no one yet knows how such a threat might materialise and no common methods exist for determining what counts as risky. Plenty of research needs to be done before standards and rules can be set.
Governments cannot ignore a technology that could change the world deeply. Regulators have been too slow in the past, but there is danger, too, in acting hurriedly. If they go too fast, policymakers could create global rules that are aimed at the wrong problems and are ineffective against the real ones.
Because of the computing resources and technical skills required, only a handful of companies have so far developed powerful “frontier” models. New hurried regulations could easily block out competitors to the “handful of companies”, especially because these companies are working closely with governments on writing the rule book. A focus on extreme risks is likely to make regulators careful of open -source models, which are freely available and can easily be revised.
The best that governments can do now is to set up the basic systems to study the technology and its potential risks, and ensure that those working on the problem have enough resources. As AI develops further, regulators will have a far better idea of what risks they are guarding against, and consequently what the rule book should look like. A fully mature body could eventually take shape. But creating it will take time and reflection.
12. What does the first paragraph function as
A. An argument. B. An explanation. C. A comment. D. A lead-in.
13. What does the underlined word “speculative” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Theoretical. B. Common. C. Unique. D. False.
14. What is the harm of regulators’ going too fast on the AI issue
A. Competition in this area is prevented. B. The development of AI is restricted.
C. AI will be applied to a limited degree. D. The public will be misled about danger.
15. Which can be the best title of the text
A. AI: a Real Threat B. Don’t Rush into Policing AI
C. AI: Humans’ Friend or Enemy D. Time for Government to Regulate AI
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是议论文，主要讲的是世界各地的政策制定者正在考虑采取措施来防范人工智能发展太快，但是监管机构在人工智能问题上走得太快是会带来一些坏处的。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。第一段“In one horrible film plot, Al eventually outsmarts humans and takes over computers and factories. In another, large language models (LLMs) of the sort that power generative AI like ChatGPT give bad guys the know-how to create destructive cyberweapons.(在一部恐怖的电影情节中，人工智能最终战胜了人类，接管了电脑和工厂。在另一种情况下，为ChatGPT等生成式人工智能提供动力的大型语言模型(LLMs)为坏人提供了制造破坏性网络武器的技术。)”提到了两个电影情节中人工智能的行为，第二段“It is time to think hard about these film plots, not because they have become more probable but because policymakers around the world are considering measures to guard against them.(现在是认真思考这些电影情节的时候了，不是因为它们变得更有可能发生，而是因为世界各地的政策制定者正在考虑采取措施防范它们。)”说到世界各地的政策制定者正在考虑采取措施防范它们，故第一段的作用就是充当引子，引出主题。故选D。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。画线词所在部分“The idea that AI could drive humans to extinction”表示“人工智能可能导致人类灭绝的想法是 ”，接着后面补充说道“no one yet knows how such a threat might materialise and no common methods exist for determining what counts as risky(没有人知道这样的威胁是如何实现的，也没有通用的方法来确定什么是危险的)”，由此可知，画线词所在句子表示“人工智能可能导致人类灭绝的想法是推测性的”，画线词应表示“猜测的，猜想的”，和Theoretical意思相近。故选A。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“If they go too fast, policymakers could create global rules that are aimed at the wrong problems and are ineffective against the real ones.(如果们走得太快，政策制定者可能会制定针对错误问题的全球规则，而对真正的问题则无效。)”和第四段“Because of the computing resources and technical skills required, only a handful of companies have so far developed powerful “frontier” models. New hurried regulations could easily block out competitors to the “handful of companies”, especially because these companies are working closely with governments on writing the rule book.(由于需要计算资源和技术技能，迄今为止只有少数公司开发了强大的“前沿”模型。匆忙出台的新法规很容易将“少数公司”的竞争对手拒之门外，尤其是因为这些公司正与政府密切合作制定规则。)”可知，监管机构在人工智能问题上走得太快的坏处是这一领域的竞争受到阻碍。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第三段“If they go too fast, policymakers could create global rules that are aimed at the wrong problems and are ineffective against the real ones.(如果他们走得太快，政策制定者可能会制定针对错误问题的全球规则，而对真正的问题则无效。)”，第四段“Because of the computing resources and technical skills required, only a handful of companies have so far developed powerful “frontier” models. New hurried regulations could easily block out competitors to the “handful of companies”, especially because these companies are working closely with governments on writing the rule book.(由于需要计算资源和技术技能，迄今为止只有少数公司开发了强大的“前沿”模型。匆忙出台的新法规很容易将“少数公司”的竞争对手拒之门外，尤其是因为这些公司正与政府密切合作制定规则。)”和最后一段“As AI develops further, regulators will have a far better idea of what risks they are guarding against, and consequently what the rule book should look like. A fully mature body could eventually take shape. But creating it will take time and reflection.(随着人工智能的进一步发展，监管机构将对自己要防范的风险有更好的了解，从而知道规则手册应该是什么样子。一个完全成熟的身体最终会成形。但创造它需要时间和思考。)”可知，本文主要讲的是世界各地的政策制定者正在考虑采取措施来防范人工智能发展太快，但是监管机构在人工智能问题上走得太快是会带来一些坏处的，因此B项“Don’t Rush into Policing AI(不要急于监管人工智能)”作文章标题最合适。故选B。

【答案】16. D 17. F 18. E 19. G 20. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了如何培养积极的思维模式。
【16题详解】
根据前文“The voice within can be your internal guidance system toward development and optimism. Having control of your inner voice can be an incredibly powerful tool for creating cycles of positive thinking.(内心的声音可以成为你走向发展和乐观的内在指导系统。控制你内心的声音是创造积极思考循环的一个不可思议的强大工具)”可知，此处提出了本文主题——积极思考，空处位于段尾，应是承上启下的过渡句，所以D项“Read on to find how to channel your thoughts positively.(继续往下读，你会发现如何积极地引导你的思想)”符合文意，承接上文，引出下文。故选D项。
【17题详解】
根据前文“Identify negative thoughts. People who don’t believe in themselves can go through life allowing negative thoughts to guide them. To break the dangerous cycle of negative thought patterns, you must first learn how to identify these thoughts.(识别消极的想法。不相信自己的人可能会让消极的想法引导他们度过一生。为了打破消极思维模式的危险循环，你必须首先学会如何识别这些想法)”以及后文“This way, you may be able to replace these with healthy ones.(这样，你就可以用健康的想法来代替)”可知，前文在讲述识别消极的想法，后文说用这种方法，所以空处应是提出了一种识别消极的想法的方法，所以F项“Write down any negative thoughts that may come into your mind.(写下任何可能出现在你脑海中的消极想法)”符合文意，是一种识别消极的想法的方法。故选F项。
【18题详解】
根据前文“Choose your friend circle wisely.(明智地选择你的朋友圈)”以及后文“This is because friends who spend a lot of time together and expose themselves to a similar environment have similar neural(神经的) activity patterns.(这是因为经常呆在一起并置身于相似环境的朋友有相似的神经活动模式)”可知，本段主题是如何选择朋友，所以E项“You are the average of the five people you spend time with.(你是和你在一起的五个人的平均值)”符合本段主题，且后文是对本句的解释。故选E项。
【19题详解】
根据前文“Turn your mindset toward growth. A growth mindset is a belief that your abilities are developable overtime. A person with a growth mindset tends to be less likely to suffer from mental health problems than someone with a fixed mindset.(把你的思维转向成长。成长型思维是一种信念，认为你的能力是可以随着时间的推移而发展的。与固定心态的人相比，拥有成长型心态的人更不容易遭受心理健康问题的困扰)”以及后文“They have repetitive thoughts in their heads.(他们的脑子里有重复的想法)”可知，此处是将拥有成长型心态的人与固定心态的人作比较，前文讲了拥有成长型心态的人，所以空处应是讲述固定心态的人，所以G项“People with a fixed mindset tend to become stuck in their ways.(有固定心态的人往往会陷入自己的方式)”符合文意。故选G项。
【20题详解】
设空位于段首，是本段的中心句，根据后文“When you feel motivated, you react without thinking, which usually ends up with you saying something you may regret. However, by choosing to respond mindfully before reacting, you are exercising control over your thoughts in a healthy way. So next time you notice an intense thought coming up, take a moment to think twice.(当你感到有动力时，你会不假思索地做出反应，这通常会导致你说一些你可能会后悔的话。然而，在做出反应之前选择谨慎地回应，你就能以一种健康的方式控制自己的想法。所以下次当你注意到一个强烈的想法出现时，花点时间三思)”可知，本段讲述了不要冲动表达，需要三思，所以B项“Choose to reflect rather than react.(选择反思而不是反应)”符合本段主题，为本段中心句。故选B项。

第二节 （满分25分）
47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
In a small community located at a suburb of Exeter, a disheartening issue had been troubling the neighborhood for years. The once pleasant surroundings were ruined by piles of waste that seemed to multiply with each passing day. Residents were growing tired of the worsening environment, leading many to abandon their homes in search of cleaner neighborhoods. It was in this terrible situation that two young students, Emma and Mia, decided to take matters into their own hands.
Emma and Mia were classmates and best friends from Phillips Exeter Academy, both passionate about environmental preservation and deeply concerned about the pollution crisis their community was facing. Witnessing more and more neighbors’ leaving, they knew they couldn’t stand by any longer. Determined to bring about a change, they undertook a mission that would soon catch the attention of the entire community.
Their journey began with thorough research and planning. The two girls searched carefully on the Internet for information on environmental initiatives and connected with local environmentalists. They organized meetings with residents to understand the issues at hand, collecting data on the types of waste, the sources, and the areas most affected. Armed with this knowledge, Emma and Mia worked out a comprehensive plan and announced it to ask for opinions from the residents. Surprisingly it was strongly supported.
Their strategy was twofold. First, they initiated a waste classification and recycling program. They distributed recycling bins(回收箱) to every household and educated the community about the importance of responsible waste management. Soon, the streets began to show signs of improvement as the volume of garbage inappropriately thrown away decreased gradually.
The second part of their plan was more ambitious. Emma and Mia gathered volunteers from their school and the neighborhood to take part in a massive clean-up campaign. Armed with gloves and trash(垃圾)bags, they began systematically clearing the waste from the streets, parks, and even the local bodies of water. Their firm commitment and hard work inspired others to join the cause.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式作答。
Half a year later, the changes were significant.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Emma and Mia received recognition and honors for their work.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Half a year later, the changes were significant. Gradually, the neighborhood regained its charm. The air grew cleaner, many kinds of birds were increasingly making their nests here again and the sound of laughter returned as children played in the park once littered with waste. Emma and Mia’s great efforts had not only cleaned up the environment but also promoted the community spirit. News of the remarkable transformation quickly spread beyond the community. Those who had left the community in earlier years began to return.
Emma and Mia received recognition and honors for their work. The local community was full of praise for their efforts and gave them gift packs in appreciation of what they had done. Besides, awards from environmental organizations and praise from government officials poured in. But they knew that their work was far from finished. They would use their newfound prominence to advocate for sustainable practices, hosting workshops and seminars on environmental protection, inspire the community to continue their eco-friendly efforts and encourage local businesses to adopt green initiatives to make their neighborhood more enjoyable.

I opened my car window and called out “Ma’am! Ma’am!” The only lady in the parking lot looked around until she saw me. “I just wanted to tell how nice you look today,” I said. “The colors you have on are beautiful on you.” Her face registered surprise for a second, and then she smiled. “Thank you!” she called back. Her final steps to her car seemed lighter, and I smiled to myself.
I grew up with very few cheerleaders in my own life. When I was in the middle of fighting a battle for my life, I had been confirmed depression, along with anxiety. It has taken many years and more effort and determination than I thought I was capable of recovering from this illness. With no cheerleaders in my court, I fought this battle alone. I am proud of the progress I have made thus far. There are times when I thought, if only I had had someone to hold me and say, “Susan, I believe in you. You can do this, and I’ll be there every step of the way.” I wonder how much sooner I would have recovered. I’ll never know.
So I have made it a point in recent years to praise people, especially women and girls. Instead of just thinking that someone looks nice or did a great job, I say it out loud. It doesn’t take long, and it’s easy. So, I wonder, why don’t more people do this As women, we have learned from our role models to be quiet. We downplay (淡化) our own achievements even when we do receive a rare compliment (恭维). Now, when I compliment someone and she denies, I say to her, “Just say thank you.” Most women are relieved that they don’t have to deny the compliment; they can accept the praise without guilt.
Cheerleading doesn’t require any skills. It only takes a few seconds, although you do have to remind yourself to do it. Eventually, it becomes a habit.
4. How did the lady feel after hearing the author’s praise
A. Delighted. B. Anxious.
C. Relaxed. D. Worried.
5. What made the author become a cheerleader
A. Her experiences.
B. Her habit.
C. Her personality.
D. Her ambition.
6. What does the author hope when she praises someone
A. She can be rewarded.
B. She can be appreciated.
C. They can accept the praise.
D. They should say something.
7. Which of the following best describes the author
A. Caring. B. Brave.
C. Outgoing. D. Honest.

Between 1945 and 2000, educators employed a fairly uniform approach. The teacher was the sun in the classroom, and all lessons and activities centered around him or her. Educators stressed the importance of discipline and obedience(服从) within the classroom, and students were expected to follow very rigid standards for behavior and academic performance. The stated goal of this model was to ensure fairness by applying the same expectations; however, the result was that only a few students succeeded while many others were left behind.
When computers and Internet technology entered the classroom a few decades ago, another pattern appeared and progressive educators immediately saw the opportunity to change the way school worked. Instead of needing to focus on the teachers for the vast majority of the day, students could use computers, websites, and even games to learn new materials and improve their skills and knowledge. Not all educators welcomed this shift, however, as some believed it took power and responsibility away from the teachers and cheapened the educational experience for learners.
Over the last decade, two distinct camps of educators have emerged. Tech advocates stress that computers and Internet technology allow students to learn at their own pace in an environment that makes them feel comfortable, while the traditional classroom sets a pace that many learners can’t keep up with and often makes students feel uncomfortable. Traditionalists, on the other hand, believe that over-reliance on tech limits students’ ability to develop their own knowledge and skills and does little to prepare them for the realities of being adults in the real world.
Regrettably, the inability of these two parties to find an agreement has prevented the growth of our education system. We must learn from what worked in the past while adopting the best of our new technologies to create an education system that reflects our modern world. If we can’t get all our teachers on the same page, then we will be at risk of failing future generations.

In one horrible film plot, Al eventually outsmarts humans and takes over computers and factories. In another, large language models (LLMs) of the sort that power generative AI like ChatGPT give bad guys the know-how to create destructive cyberweapons.
It is time to think hard about these film plots, not because they have become more probable but because policymakers around the world are considering measures to guard against them. The idea that AI could drive humans to extinction is speculative—no one yet knows how such a threat might materialise and no common methods exist for determining what counts as risky. Plenty of research needs to be done before standards and rules can be set.
Governments cannot ignore a technology that could change the world deeply. Regulators have been too slow in the past, but there is danger, too, in acting hurriedly. If they go too fast, policymakers could create global rules that are aimed at the wrong problems and are ineffective against the real ones.
Because of the computing resources and technical skills required, only a handful of companies have so far developed powerful “frontier” models. New hurried regulations could easily block out competitors to the “handful of companies”, especially because these companies are working closely with governments on writing the rule book. A focus on extreme risks is likely to make regulators careful of open -source models, which are freely available and can easily be revised.
The best that governments can do now is to set up the basic systems to study the technology and its potential risks, and ensure that those working on the problem have enough resources. As AI develops further, regulators will have a far better idea of what risks they are guarding against, and consequently what the rule book should look like. A fully mature body could eventually take shape. But creating it will take time and reflection.
12. What does the first paragraph function as
A. An argument. B. An explanation. C. A comment. D. A lead-in.
13. What does the underlined word “speculative” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Theoretical. B. Common. C. Unique. D. False.
14. What is the harm of regulators’ going too fast on the AI issue
A. Competition in this area is prevented. B. The development of AI is restricted.
C. AI will be applied to a limited degree. D. The public will be misled about danger.
15. Which can be the best title of the text
A. AI: a Real Threat B. Don’t Rush into Policing AI
C. AI: Humans’ Friend or Enemy D. Time for Government to Regulate AI

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
In a small community located at a suburb of Exeter, a disheartening issue had been troubling the neighborhood for years. The once pleasant surroundings were ruined by piles of waste that seemed to multiply with each passing day. Residents were growing tired of the worsening environment, leading many to abandon their homes in search of cleaner neighborhoods. It was in this terrible situation that two young students, Emma and Mia, decided to take matters into their own hands.
Emma and Mia were classmates and best friends from Phillips Exeter Academy, both passionate about environmental preservation and deeply concerned about the pollution crisis their community was facing. Witnessing more and more neighbors’ leaving, they knew they couldn’t stand by any longer. Determined to bring about a change, they undertook a mission that would soon catch the attention of the entire community.
Their journey began with thorough research and planning. The two girls searched carefully on the Internet for information on environmental initiatives and connected with local environmentalists. They organized meetings with residents to understand the issues at hand, collecting data on the types of waste, the sources, and the areas most affected. Armed with this knowledge, Emma and Mia worked out a comprehensive plan and announced it to ask for opinions from the residents. Surprisingly it was strongly supported.
Their strategy was twofold. First, they initiated a waste classification and recycling program. They distributed recycling bins(回收箱) to every household and educated the community about the importance of responsible waste management. Soon, the streets began to show signs of improvement as the volume of garbage inappropriately thrown away decreased gradually.
The second part of their plan was more ambitious. Emma and Mia gathered volunteers from their school and the neighborhood to take part in a massive clean-up campaign. Armed with gloves and trash(垃圾)bags, they began systematically clearing the waste from the streets, parks, and even the local bodies of water. Their firm commitment and hard work inspired others to join the cause.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式作答。
Half a year later the changes were significant.
