17、oduct instruction.BMost people have heard of Shakespeare and probably know something of the plays that he wrote. However, not everybody knows much about the life of this remarkable man, except perhaps that he was born in the market town of Stratford upon Avon and that he married a woman called Anne
18、Hathaway. We know nothing of his school life. We do not know, for example, how long it lasted, but we presume that he attended the local grammar school, where the principal subject taught was Latin.Nothing certain is known for what he did between the time he left school and his departure for London.
19、 According to a local legend, he was beaten and even put in prison for stealing rabbits and deer from the estate of a neighboring landowner, Sir Thomas Lucy. It is said that because of this he was forced to run away from his native place. A different legend says that he was apprenticed to a Stratfor
20、d butcher, but did not like the life and for this reason decided to leave Stratford.Whatever caused him to leave the town of his birth, the world can be grateful that he did so. What is certain is that he set his foot on the road to fame when he arrived in London. It is said that at first he had no
21、money or friends there, but that he earned a little by taking care of the horses of the gentlemen who attended the plays at the theatre. In time, as he became a familiar figure to the actors in the theatre, they stopped and spoke to him. They found his conversation so brilliant that finally he was i
22、nvited to join their company.24. In the early life of Shakespeare, he _, supposedly.A. attended a public schoolB. lived in LondonC. studied LatinD. was put in prison for stealing cattle25.

The underlined phrase “In time” in Paragraph 3 means _.A. on timeB. sometimesC. some time laterD. some timeCScientists have come up with a new way of identifying animals in an area by testing DNA taken in from the air. The researchers beli
25、eve their new method could help scientists keep track of animals that are hard to spot, including endangered animals.Two teams of scientistsone in Denmark and one in the United Kingdom (UK)came up with the same question at about the same time: Could they identify the animals in an area from DNA that
26、 was simply floating in the air?Testing for eDNA isnt a new idea, but most of the time, scientists look for eDNA in water. DNA in the air is usually so small that it would take a microscope to see it. The scientists didnt have high hopes for their experiment. Neither team knew that the other group w
27、as working on a similar experiment. One collected samples from different locations at Denmarks Copenhagen Zoo, and the other at Hamerton Zoo Park in the UK. The scientists used slightly different methods to collect their samples. But basically, both teams collected extremely tiny bits of DNA onto ve
28、ry high quality filters.In the laboratory, they got the DNA from the filters and made copies of it to study. By comparing their samples with examples of DNA from different animals, the scientists were able to identify many different animals at the zoos.Each team only discovered about the other exper
29、iment after they had written a paper about their own results. Instead of competing, the two decided to combine their results and publish a paper together.Both teams are excited about the ways this new method could be used in the wild. Scientists have been looking for better ways to track endangered
30、animals without interfering with them. If researchers know where animals live, they can do a better job of protecting them. “The next step is to figure out how to take this method into nature,” says Dr. Bohmann, one of the scientists on the Copenhagen team.28. Whats the task of the scientists from d
31、ifferent countries?A. To recognize animals by DNA in the open air.B. To improve what the other team have achieved.C. To look for eDNA in water for some rare animals.D. To save endangered animals by copying their DNA.29. What can we know from paragraph 3?A. The two teams collected DNA from the same z
32、oo.B. Neither team made correct treatment on the study.C. The two teams used completely different techniques.D. Scientists didnt think highly of the two teams methods.30. Which of the following can best describe the two teams cooperation?A. Eventful.B. Competitive.C. Promising.D. Complicated.31. Wha
33、t is the text mainly about?A. Peoples efforts in saving endangered animals.B. New methods of recognizing animals by DNA.C. Ways of studying animals without disturbing them.D. Different countries cooperation in saving animals.DRecently, Google researchers published a paper describing results from an
34、artificial intelligence (AI) tool, called MusicLM, built to create music. It is not the first AI music tool to launch. But the examples Google provides demonstrate musical creative ability based on a limited set of descriptive words. AI shows how complex computer systems have been trained to behave
35、in human-like ways.Google engineers explain the MusicLM system this way: First, a user comes up with a word or words that describe the kind of music they want the tool to create. For example, a user could enter this short phrase into the system: “a continuous calming violin backed by a soft guitar s
36、ound.” The descriptions entered can include different music styles, instruments or other existing sounds. Several different music examples produced by MusicLM were published online. Some of the generated music came from just one-or-two-word descriptions, such as “jazz”, or “techno”. The system creat
37、ed other examples from more detailed descriptions containing whole sentences. In the resulting recording, the music seems to keep very close to the description. The team said that the more detailed the description is, the better the system can attempt to produce it.In addition to generating new musi
38、c from written descriptions, the team said the system can also create examples based on a persons own singing, whistling or playing an instrument. The researchers said the tool “produces high-quality music over several minutes, while being faithful to the text conditioning signal”.Although it hasnt
39、been released for public use, Google announced it was releasing a “high-quality dataset (数据集)” of more than 5,500 music-writing pairs prepared by professional musicians called MusicCaps. The researchers took that step to assist in the development of other AI music generators.The MusicLM researchers
40、said they believe they have designed a new tool to help anyone quickly and easily create high-quality music selections. However, the team said it also recognizes some risks linked to the machine learning process.32. How does MusicLM work?A. It adapts music from recordings.B. It generates music from
41、written descriptions.C. It teaches users how to play a musical instrument.D. It recommends songs based on a users listening history.33. Why did Google release the MusicCaps dataset?A. To display the capabilities of MusicLM.B. To allow the public to use MusicLM.C. To help develop other AI music gener
42、ators.D. To promote the MusicCaps service.34. What might be an advantage of using MusicLM for music creation?A. It can improve the overall quality of all music.B. It can replace human musicians and composers.C. It can produce music that is more complex.D. It can create music quickly and efficiently.
43、35. What is the main idea of the article?A. Google has developed MusicLM to create music.B. MusicLMan AI systems can behave in human-like ways.C. MusicLM can create music following written descriptions.D. Google has released a dataset to help develop music generators.第二节 (共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)阅读下面短文

A few famous people may give you some helpful tips.Read books from past eras. 36 Otherwise, youd be “completely dependent on the prejudices and fashions of your times,
45、” just as Albert Einstein put it. “Somebody who reads only newspapers and books of contemporary authors looks to me like an extremely near-sighted person who dislikes eyeglasses,” he said. 37 Reading too wide a variety in too short a time would keep the teachings from leaving a lasting impression on
46、 you. Seneca the Younger, a first-century Roman philosopher, suggested that “you must linger (流连) among a limited number of master thinkers, and digest their works, if you would obtain ideas which shall win firm hold in your mind.” Shop at secondhand bookstores.Virginia Woolf believed the works in s
47、econdhand bookstores have an attraction which the usual volumes of the library lack. Browsing through these books gives you the chance to run into something that wouldnt have risen to the attention of librarians and booksellers. 38 Check out authors reading lists.In his 1940 guide How to Read a Book
48、, American philosopher Mortimer J. Adler talked about how to choose books. He attached importance to those that other authors consider worth reading. 39 Mortimer wrote that “one way to understand them is to read the books they read.” Make the final decision by yourself. 40 Its you yourself who shoul
49、d choose what, how and when to read. Theodore Roosevelt recommended choosing books on subjects that interest you and letting your mood guide you to your next great read.A.
