    A student project has discovered another power of AI: It can be good at locating(定位) where photos are taken.

    The project is called Predicting Image Geolocations(or PIGEON). It's the work of three Stanford students. They designed it in order to recognise locations on Google Street View(谷歌街景). The team showed the AI a few personal photos it had never seen before, it could tell where they were taken.

    PIGEON works well because it can pick upon all the little things in photos. It can notice small differences in leaves, soil and weather. The group says the technology can be used in many ways. It could recognise roads or power lines that need fixing. It may also help researchers do surveys of invasive(入侵的) plants in an area.

    However, this new power is likely to be a double-edged sword. It could be used to reveal people's private, personal information, says Jay Stanley, an expert at the American Civil Liberties Union.

    Stanley worries that companies might soon use AI to find out where you've traveled. Governments might check your photos to see if you've visited certain countries. Stalking (跟踪) is also a possible threat, he says. People have long been able to remove GPS location information from photos they post online. That may not work any more. Luckily, the Stanford students are well aware of the risks. Because of these worries, they haven't given the public entry to their program.

    Stanley thinks the use of AI for identifying locations will become even more powerful in the future. What will that mean? Well, be very careful about what's in the background in the photos you post online, he says.

    1. (1) What can PIGEON do according to the passage?
      A . It can tell where the photos were taken. B . It is able to tell who took the photos. C . It can tell which company made the power lines. D . It is able to tell the weather when photos were taken.
    2. (2) What can we infer from the passage?
      A . Nobody is interested in the new project PIGEON. B . It's not safe enough for the public to use PIGEON. C . Only governments can check the countries we visited. D . The project PIGEON is widely used in many ways now.
    3. (3) What is Stanley's advice on sending pictures online?
      A . Governments should help to stop using PIGEON. B . Teachers should teach students how to use PIGEON. C . Parents should stop their kids from sending photos online. D . Internet users should think twice before posting photos online.
    4. (4) What's the best title for the passage?
      A . Locating Is an Easy Job Now B . Posting Photos on the Internet C . Three Famous Stanford Students D . AI Has Arrived at Your Locations

    ChatGPT was released late last year by company Open AI. The technology chats in a conversational way, answering questions from users. The online chatbot (chat robo) has been trained on lots of information from the Internet-it can have a human-like conversation answering questions.

    Experts say it can be used to write articles, stories, poems and even solve computer problems. But there are limits to what it can do, which Open AI admits. Sometimes it writes answers which are incorrect or don't make sense, and it sometimes guesses what the user has asked it instead of asking more follow-up questions to understand the questions better.

    ChatGPT.is getting mixed opinions in terms of learning. Some think students might use it to cheat, while others think they should use the tool in the classroom to help children learn. Some people believe that    ▲    .In their opinion, just like when the calculator was created, people were unsure at first, but if teachers introduce the technology and teach students how to use it, that can help with their learning.

    Even though Chat GPT can answer questions which may be able to help students out with homework, it might not always give the correct facts. This is because its main purpose is to create sentences that could have been written by a human-rather than searching on the Internet for facts. This means it can sometimes get things wrong, which wouldn't be good for homework!

    However, ChatGPT still has a long way to go. The developers of it and other chat robots using AI are always looking for ways of improving their accuracy(准确性).

    1. (1) ChatGPT can do a lot of things EXCEPT____according to the passage.
      A . making and answering phone calls B . writing essays and stories C . chatting with users on the Internet D . solving computer code
    2. (2) Which of the following can be putin the "    ▲    " in Paragraph 3?
      A . the chatbot might do harm to teaching B . the chatbot should be welcomed C . the chatbot has no meaning to students D . the chatbot might be better than teachers
    3. (3) Which of the following might be the writer's opinion about ChatGPT?
      A . ChatGPT will bring problems and health risks to people. B . ChatGPT still needs time to work for people in a better way. C . Chat GPT will be never be used again. D . ChatGPT is a perfect invention and brings benefits to the world.
    4. (4) What is the structure of this passage?
      A . B . C . D .

    Chat GPT is back in the headlines!Open AI, the company behind the popular chatbot, has now introduced a powerful new language model:GPT—4. 

    On March 14, GPT—4 showed the world how smarter it is than the previous GPT—3. 5. One of its best new features is that it can understand pictures. For example, if you show a picture of a phone using the wrong charger(充电器), GPT—4 can tell why the picture looks strange or funny. 

    But GPT—4's developments don't stop there. The new language model can code (用代码编写) classic games like Tetris(俄罗斯方块) in a matter of minutes, and produce the code and layout(布局) for a website based on a hand—made drawing. It can also change the tone(语气) and style based on what you ask it to do. GPT4 is much better than the older GPT at passing tests, which may worry teachers. According to CNN, GPT—4 did really well on a law school test, with a score in the top 10 percent of test takers. But GPT—3. 5 only got a score in the bottom 10 percent. 

    GPT—4 will also see greater use as a tool to power other apps and services. For example, the language learning app Duolingo plans to use GPT—4 in their upcoming (即将到来的) Duolingo Max function. Users can learn language by talking with AI. Another app, Be My Eyes, will have a digital assistant to help blind people better understand the world around them. The government of Iceland also plans to use GPT—4 to protect the Icelandic language. 

    There are still problems with the new language model, however. GPT—4 still struggles to get completely correct answers, especially with newer information after September 2021. GPT—4 also sometimes " hallucinates". meaning that it will insist(坚持) that wrong information is true. 

    1. (1) What can we infer from Paragraph 2? 
      A . GPT—3. 5 cannot understand pictures. B . GPT—4 can respond in a fun way. C . GPT—4 can tell if a phone is recharging. D . GPT—4 can create funny pictures.
    2. (2) The phrase " in a matter of minutes " in paragraph 3 shows that ____ . 
      A . games like Tetris are easy to code. B . GPT—4 can code games like Tetris quickly. C . hand—made drawings help GPT—4 work better. D . anyone can code games using GPT—4.
    3. (3) What worry does GPT—4 bring to teachers? 
      A . It can change tones based on a user's input. B . It may help students cheat on tests easily. C . Students will lose their competitiveness. D . It will take the place of lawyers in the future.
    4. (4) How will the Duolingo Max users benefit from GPT—4? 
      A . AI can help them make personalized study plans. B . Blind people can communicate through the app. C . They can practice languages by talking with AI. D . They can find many dying languages on the app.
    5. (5) What does GPT—4 "hallucinates" mean? 
      A . It is stuck in the time before Sept 2021. B . It may not tell the past from the present. C . Its answers are partly right and partly wrong. D . It responds with wrong information.

    ChatGPT, a powerful AI (artificial intelligence人工智能) chatbot tool, has swept the world in the past few months. The tool is an AI chatbot system that was created by OpenAI company in America and went public in November 2022. ChatGPT can remember the topic of your conversation, answer your questions and write stories and any other written texts you can think of. It gets its answers from a great deal of information on the Internet.

    You can ask ChatGPT anything, like explaining physics, asking for birthday party ideas and getting programming (编程) help. Perhaps it's not smart enough to complete everything humans can do yet, but it can be creative, and its answers can sound completely correct. A few days after its coming, more than 1 million people were trying out ChatGPT. It is reported that ChatGPT reached 100 million users in 2 months, while it took TikTok about 9 months to reach 100 million users and Instagram spend two and a half years reaching it.

    ChatGPT is free to use at the moment because it is still in its research process (过程). But when too many people flood onto the server (服务器), it is crowded with too many users and can't deal with your needs. It just means you should try visiting the website at a later time when fewer people are trying to enter it. If you wouldn't like to wait, there is a good choice for you. Up to February, 2023, OpenAI has another product, ChatGPT Plus, which allows users to join the server quickly even during the rush hour of Network. This service does come at a cost of $20 per month.

    However, Google has an advantage over ChatGPT. ChatGPT is an artificial intelligence robot that can solve your problems, while Google is a search engine, and on it you can search for as much information as possible. ChatGPT has fixed knowledge because of its programming but Google has up-to-date knowledge every day.

    1. (1) Why does the writer list figures (列数字) in Paragraph 2?
      A . To show that ChatGPT is very popular. B . To show that ChatGPT is very expensive. C . To show that ChatGPT is very creative. D . To show that ChatGPT is very helpful.
    2. (2) What is ChatGPT Plus designed for?
      A . Guiding users to experience free services. B . Allowing users to visit the website later. C . Helping users write their stories. D . Offering users a chance to visit the website quickly.
    3. (3) What is the disadvantage of ChatGPT compared with Google?
      A . It works on fixed numbers. B . It takes more time to search for information. C . It doesn't have the latest knowledge. D . It may provide wrong answers to questions.

    From writing poems to making music, ChatGPT has amazed the world since its launch in late2022 by the US-based company Open AI. It even passed several law exams in four courses at the University of Minnesota, US, according to CNN.

    The AI program can answer questions on a whole host of topics and write articles, stories and any other written texts you can think of. It does this by drawing on information collected from a data base.

    What makes ChatGPT so impressive? As Sam Altman, the CEO of Open Al said in an interview, "It's not actually new technology that made this (ChatGPT) so amazing. " According to MIT Technology Review, ChatGPT is based on GPT-3, a large language model. Because texts are not simply made up of the meaning of every word, language models require a type of neural network (神经网络) that can make sense of texts.

    One improvement behind today's model is a network called Transformer, which was invented by Google researchers in 2017. The neural network can infer word meanings by finding where the word appears in a sentence. Transformer can therefore get the meaning of texts more correctly. The GPT models can learn by themselves without being told what to look at. ChatGPT can now produce human-like answers at once because of the plenty of texts it learned from.

    "One of the biggest problems with ChatGPT is that it comes back, very confidently, with falsities, " Michael Woold at the Alan Turing Institute in London, told The Guardian (a British newspaper). This means that ChatGPT doesn't know the truth about the world -- it learns information from all kinds of resources but it cannot decide what is true or false.

    Some argue that ChatGPT will be used to produce unreal news, spread falsities, or be used forbad purposes.

    1. (1) How does ChatGPT work?
      A . By making long texts shorter. B . By collecting a lot of information. C . By passing several law exams in four courses. D . By selling information to people in need.
    2. (2) What makes ChatGPT so amazing?
      A . A completely new technology. B . The ability to find the location of a word. C . The mixture of a network and self-learning. D . Better understanding of the meaning of every word.
    3. (3) What does the underlined word "falsities" mean in the passage?
      A . False information. B . Something new. C . Various resources. D . Timely responses.
    4. (4) What may the writer talk about in the next part of the article?
      A . The usage of ChatGPT. B . The history of ChatGPT. C . The advantages of ChatGPT. D . The disadvantages of ChatGPT.

You have to keep up with the latest developments and at the same time write timely, interesting and unique content. The same goes for scientists, researchers and analysts and other professionals. With floods of information being published on the web every day, things aren't getting easier.

    Fortunately, Artificial Intelligence has a few ways to help with professional writing, among which is smart proofreading.

    Software sellers have always tried to help writers by adding proofreading features to their tools. But those efforts can slightly anger someone with more-than-average writing skills. However,that is changing as AI is getting better at understanding the context and purpose of the written text. One example is Microsoft Word's New Editor Feature, a tool that uses AI to provide more than simple proofreading. Editor can understand slight differences in your article much better than other tools do. It flags not only grammatical errors and style mistakes, but also the use of unnecessarily complex words and overused terms. For instance, it knows when you're using the word "really" to emphasize a point or to raise a question.

    It also gives reasons for its decisions and provides smart suggestions when it considers something as incorrect. For example, if it marks a sentence as passive, it will provide a reworded version in active voice.

    Editor has been well received by professional writers, though it's still far from perfect. However, AI-powered writing assistance is fast becoming a competitive market. Grammarly, a grammar checker, uses AI to help with all writing tasks on the web. Atomic Reach is another player, which uses machine learning to provide feedback on the readability of written content.
