    Type in "A cat wants to go to space" and ask ChatGPT to write a bedtime story. Just one second later, you'll get the story of Max, who clawed his way past many difficulties to sing among the stars.

    Developed by US company OpenAI, ChatGPT has taken the Internet by storm, winning 100million users since it came out in November 2022. People can ask the robot to write stories and emails, create recipes, translate languages, and answer all kinds of questions. In its own words, it is "a language model trained on a large amount of text data to help users get human-like text".

    Compared with Sin or other chatbots, ChatGPT uses a much bigger database(数据库) for training. It also uses stronger software(软件) and hardware to learn things by itself. For example if it provides a wrong answer to your question, you can tell it the right one and it will make corrections. "It's a totally different product," computer scientist Liu Xiaoguang from Nankai University told Tianjin Daily. "The knowledge level ChatGPT shows is nearly the same as an undergraduate (本科生) student. That's why it shocked the world. "

    But one big problem with ChatGPT is that it makes mistakes or even gives fake information. When Rezza, a 28-year -old from Indonesia, used the robot to write an essay , it "gave out nonexistent academic citations (不存在的学术引用)", he told The Guardian. Since the robot is trained using words from the internet, it can also pick up on the Internet's biases (偏见) about certain groups. These are all things that need to be dealt with.

    1. (1) What is Paragraph 1 mainly about?  
      A . The possibility for a cat to go to space. B . How ChatGPT learns about space. C . What ChatGPT can do for animals. D . An example of a story created by ChatGPT.
    2. (2) According to the passage, which of the following can ChatGPT do?
      A . Make dishes. B . Sing songs. C . Translate texts. D . Create new languages.
    3. (3) What makes ChatGPT an excellent chatbot?

      a. It won't give people wrong answers.    b. It is smarter than any undergraduate student.

      c. It can learn things by itself.        d. It has a big database for training.

      A . ab B . ad C . bc D . cd
    4. (4) What does the underlined word in the last paragraph mean?
      A . 虚假的 B . 真实的 C . 不真诚的 D . 过多的

    Respect is something often given to strangers, like politeness, but many people often forget to use it at home. Showing respect for family members needs more thoughts.

    Show politeness. If politeness is good for strangers, it's good for home use as well. Remember to say "please" and "thank you", "hello" and "goodbye", "good morning" and "good evening". These are basic rules of etiquette (礼节), which can show your respect for family members when they are used in communication with your family members.

    Defend your family members. There's no need to go out and cause trouble to protect your family. But when you're in public, watch what you say about your family members. When you face criticism(批评) from others defend your family. After all, their bad habits have a bad effect on you, too

    Give them space to grow up. Respect sometimes requires you to mind your own business, even at home. For example, respect your sister's choice of her new friend, even when you don't agree, by allowing her to make her own decisions and being there to support her when they argue with each other. Skip the "I told you so" out of respect for your sister and your family connection.

    Keep communication. You don't have to agree with your family members to show them respect. Even though you don't agree with it, remember to respect a family member by continuing to communicate with that person. Once you have stated your own opinion, though, you may want to avoid the disagreeable subject.

    1. (1) Which of the following shows your respect to your family members? 
      A . Making decisions for your sister. B . Protecting your family in spite of making trouble. C . Always agreeing with what they say. D . Saying "hello" or "thank you" to them.
    2. (2) What should you do if you disagree with your family members?
      A . Keep communicating but avoid unpleasant subjects. B . Stop talking to them. C . Never discuss anything with them again. D . Change your own opinion.
    3. (3) What would be the best title for the passage?
      A . Why should you respect family members? B . How should you defend family members? C . How should you respect family members? D . Why should you respect family members choices?
    4. (4) This passage is probably taken from a(n)________.
      A . science magazine B . movie review C . advertisement D . newspaper

    In a modern world where time is money, how have our reading habits been influenced? Are we reading more quickly or do we prefer to read short passages? The answer perhaps lies in the kind of text you're reading.

    When we're reading online, we read quickly to search what we want. Does this mean that as readers we now have far less patience than we used to? Not necessarily. Much of this activity is actually skimming or scanning to check whether something is useful or interesting and whether we want to read on. We'll slow down and take a bit longer to properly read the text if the headline catches our eyes.

    For those writing for an online environment, this means finding more useful ways of catching the readers' eyes. For example, putting the key information at the very beginning make sit more likely that the time-poor website visitors will find what they want.

    But what about when we're reading literature(文学), are the rules still the same? The average reader works their way through a piece of an article at no more than about 250-300 words per minute, which is generally a page of text. If you try to read through a novel more quickly, then you start to lose a lot of what makes literature such a pleasure. When we read for pleasure, we are much less focused on picking out useful information or key words. Instead, the language itself is as important as the information mentioned. The longer you spend reading a passage, the more vivid(生动)a picture you create in your mind.

    Sometimes an escape(逃离) from the fast moving Internet Age is just what we need, so maybe it's time to slow down and lose yourself in a good book.

    1. (1) Why do people read quickly online according to the text?
      A . Because people are becoming less patient than they used to.    B . Because people think the passages on the Internet are boring. C . Because they need to save time for printing what they want. D . Because people want to decide whether to read on quickly.
    2. (2) How does the writer organize Paragraph 3?
      A . By giving an example. B . By asking questions. C . By listing numbers. D . By showing facts.
    3. (3) What would the writer most probably like to do?
      A . Draw some pictures on the book. B . Enjoy himself while reading slowly C . Write an article of 250-300 words. D . Read through a novel very quickly.
    4. (4) Which of the following best shows the structure of the text? (P=Paragraph)
      A . B . C . D .
二、任务型阅读(共5小题,计10分)
  • 5. (2023八下·杭州期中) 下面文章中有五处(第31-35题)需要添加首句。请从以下选项(A、B、C、D、E和F)中选出符合各段意思的首句。选项中有一项是多余项。

    A. Stop nagging.

    B. Teach them.

    C. Pay children for the chores they do.

    D. Keep the children do the same chores.

    E. Change the chores as children grow up.

    F. Start early.

    Should children do chores? Some believe that children should not do chores. They think that children are too young to cook or clean for themselves or their parents. But I think doing chores is good for them. Doing chores teaches them many important things.

    It will help them in their life. There are many things that parents can do to encourage their children to do chores. Here are some suggestions.

    Parents should give their children chores to do when they are young.

    Parents should show their children how to do chores and teach them one chore at a time. And doing chores is also a teaching tool. Parents use the tool to teach children so that they can care for themselves someday.

    Parents should make sure that the chores they give to their children are appropriate to (适合于) their children's ages and abilities (能力). Parents shouldn't, of course, ask a schoolboy to cook when he is doing his homework.

    For example, pay them 1 dollar for taking out the rubbish. When a child get paid by his hard work, he will probably have the feeling of growing up.

    Sometimes children do not mean to refuse to do chores, but because they are too tired of their parents' nag(唠叨). What's more, don't do chores for children if they forget. Let them know it's their duty to do some of the chores, and nobody will do those for them.
