Do you know how many kinds of plants and animals (1) in the world？Experts believe there are between 8 and 14 million，but right now we only know about 1.5 million.However，scientists (2) new plant and animal species （物种） all the time—and that's good news for us.
In 2009，a university professor (3) Christopher Austin and his student Eric Rittmeyer discovered a new animal species.They were in Papua New Guinea，studying the wildlife on the island.One evening，they were in the jungle listening to animal sounds.The most common sound was the noise of frogs croaking loudly.But there was another sound—a much softer，high-pitched one that sounded like it came from something much smaller.
At first，they couldn't locate the sound，but after some time，they realized it came from the ground.They searched through the grass and dead leaves carefully，but what they found surprised them.It was a tiny frog just seven millimeters （毫米） long. "This frog has a call (4) doesn't sound like a frog at all，" said Austin.The frog they discovered was the smallest in the world!
Researchers believe that frogs are important because they help keep the environment clean.We can also use them to create new medicines.Whenever we find a new species，we learn new things.For that reason，scientists work very hard to find new plants and animals every day.But their jobs are getting more difficult.The forests that these animals live in are disappearing quickly.And，sadly， (5) are the animals.

On February 4，Wang Yujia，37，became the first Chinese musician to win the Grammy Award for the best classical instrumental solo（独奏奖） category.
Wang's special position in the classical music world is marked by her excellent skills.In January 2023，Wang presented a three and a half hours' show in New York，which was described by the New York Times as a " once-in-a-lifetime" musical event.
Among the four piano concertos（协奏曲） Wang played，Piano Concerto No.3，known as one of "the hardest concertos"，challenges musicians with all kinds of skills.Cyril Smith from Britain once said that it required the strength of shoveling （铲） 10 tons of coal to play the concerto.Moreover，the piece requires the musician to show a great number of feelings and themes including sadness，heroism and happiness.
Although there were all the great challenges，Wang didn't find it a problem to complete the music. "There are big physical challenges on the piano，but it is even harder to use special skills to finish the work.That's what is really fun，"Wang told China Daily.
The fashionable musician is also known for the bright colours，brave designs of her clothes and wearing 10 cm high heels（高跟鞋） on the show.This caused many reviews against her in the past，with some saying she wanted to attract people.But Wang is not afraid of being true to herself，saying to The Guardian，"If the music is beautiful and makes people happy，why not dress to fit？It's about power of music."
She hopes people notice that below the surface is her great love for classical music."The more I play a concerto，the more to be found.It's like a long-term exploration，"Wang said.
32.The New York Times used the word "once-in-a-lifetime" to tell people ______ .

Daniella Hudson grew up in a very creative family.

Recently，Daniella was asked to take part in a local design show."One of the organizers had bought one of my pieces off the Internet.I couldn't believe it when she told me there would be a thousand visitors，"she says.Instead of worrying about this，Daniella was excited by the chance."I was amazed she thought my work was good enough，"Daniella says."I had little idea what visitors would think about it.My furniture is quite different from the designers whose work I've seen in magazines-mine is more traditional."But Daniella received lots of orders at the show and the future is looking bright for this young design star.

The world's first human-like robot half-marathon （半程马拉松） was held in Beijing on 19 April.Amazingly，20 robots joined about 12，000 human runners in the race.
The robots were different，from the 180-centimeter-tall "Tiangong Ultra" to the 75-centimeter-tall "Little Giant".They had human-like looks and ran on two legs.Each robot started at a slightly different time so that they would not bump into each other.To give each robot the best chance，each travelled with support workers.Just as human runners needed to get energy from water，the robots were allowed to get new batteries during the panies were also allowed to replace （替换） their robots when they could no longer run.
The first robot to cross the finishing line was Tiangong Ultra.It finished the race in 2 hours，40 minutes and 42 seconds，while the winner of the men's race finished in 1 hour and 2 minutes.To the robots，the most important thing was not to win，but to finish.At last，six of the robots crossed the finishing line.
The race was a success，even for the robots who didn't finish.Their efforts will help their developers improve future human-like robots.The race also marked the first time in human history—human-like robots have tried a half-marathon.
However，the marathon also displayed some weaknesses of the robots.They needed people to change their batteries，prevent falls，and even control them.These challenges show hidden problems in the field：behaving like humans requires further work in materials science，storing power and AI learning abilities.
In the future，as AI gets smarter，the gap （差距） between humans and machines will narrow.For China，developing these human-like robots isn't just about making them run faster—it's about which country can make full use of science and technology to take the lead in the world.And in that marathon，every fall and hard-won step matter.

There's no better place to play and learn about the world than on a sports field.No matter what sport you choose，the key is to play for fun.When you do，you're already a (5) （ win）.

Today，of course，we have notes and coins issued （发行） by the government，and everyone a（8） ______ this as money.Money makes it possible to trade in our modern world.You might sometimes find a friend who you can do a direct trade with —perhaps one skateboard or game for another.But mostly this is impossible.Money also allows us to save.It would be difficult to save up lots of cows until you wanted to spend them.W（9） ______ would you put them while you saved.Money is also a measure （衡量） of value.If you have ever done jobs around the house to earn money to buy something like a bicycle，you will have learnt the value of what you were s（10） ______ for by how much work you had to do.

45.【答案】Dear teachers and fellow students，
AI is like a"golden key"that brings both chances and problems for our learning.I'd like to share some of my thoughts on this growing trend.First of all，we should realize the importance of Artificial Intelligence technology.As we all know，China has made rapid progress in Artificial Intelligence technology.What should we do as a student？Here are my opinions. （引入话题）
On the one hand，we shouldn't depend on it too much. （过于依赖人工智能）We need to manage time wisely and think actively and critically instead of just using the internet to get information.We should take an active part in social activities in our free time.On the other hand，we communicate less with people.（与人交流的更少了）We should take part in more school activities to communicate more with people.【高分句型一】Last but not least，it's necessary for us to learn English well because it's widely used as an international language in the world.【高分句型二】
In a word，as a Chinese，we should not only take pride in our great country but also we should spare no effort to make it more powerful and beautiful.Thank you for your time!（总结）
