It was a typical weekend for Mitch White and his friends. They were out celebrating a bachelor party, sailing the peaceful waters of the Minnesota River. They never expected that this single party would transform from a relaxed canoe trip into a painful rescue mission. With the sun setting, an unexpected bark changed everything.
Led by Mitch White, the soon-to-be-married man, they searched for the source of the sound along the banks of the river. Suddenly, a weak cry for help came from the mud. They were surprised to find that the head of a 13-year-old St. Bernard named Ed was barely visible in the thick mud. Mitch said, “The dog wasn’t moving on its own, so we should feed it and give it water.” The dog looked like it had used all its strength.
The men took up their oars (槳) and began digging, their festive mood giving way to a focused rescue mission. It took them more than half an hour to free the trapped dog as it was already breathing very feebly after possibly being trapped for 24 hours. When they got the poor fellow out of the mud, he couldn’t walk, so they carried him back to the house. Back home with his owner, George Niskanen, Ed began his slow restoration—a happy ending to a dangerous adventure. George was thankful to the bachelor party heroes.
Now, the people of Carver, Minnesota, have new heroes to cheer for. Indeed, this incredible act of bravery and compassion redefined the meaning of a bachelor party. It became a heroic tale of humanity, friendship, and the instinct (本能) to do what’s right.

If you’re thinking about growing apples, now is the time to test different kinds and talk with local growers. This advice comes from gardening writer Lee Reich. His books include The Pruning (修剪) Book and Weedless Gardening. Reich grows an apple called Hudson’s Golden Gem, and he does so for one reason — the taste. He says the fruit’s wonderful taste makes it truly special.
When you buy apples at the store, your choice is limited to the 12 or more kinds available for sale. Gardeners, however, have more choices. They can plant any of more than 5,000 different kinds of apples.
Gardeners can also harvest their apples just as each kind reaches its moment of perfection. Reich says his Macoun apples taste much better than any Macoun apples found in stores. One reason is that his can be left to ripen until they nearly fall off the tree.
Here are some other flavorful apples to plant. The Ashmead’s Kernel apple was first grown more than 200 years ago in a garden belonging to Dr. Ashmead in Gloucester, England. The apple has a reddish, golden brown color. Inside, it has tasty, sharp flesh. Cox’s Orange Pippin is another old apple from England. It was first grown by Richard Cox in 1825. This apple’s orange and red color makes it unpopular in the American market. But it is loved for its strong taste. Ellison’s Orange is another British apple that came from Lincolnshire in 1911. It is a late summer or early autumn apple, golden yellow with stripes, with juicy flesh.
Before you run out to buy trees to grow the kinds you love to eat, Reich does have a warning: Apples are not easy to grow in many parts of the country. The plants require yearly pruning and insect control. But if you’re willing to learn how to keep the unwanted insects away, a few kinds of trees chosen for their taste will give you years of good eating.
8. What can we infer about Lee Reich
A. He is a teacher. B. He loves planting.
C. He grows a very rare kind of flower. D. His books are about how to sell trees.
9. Why are Reich’s Macoun apples tastier than those in the store
A. They are naturally ripe. B. They are planted in the garden.
C. They have been picked out carefully. D. They are genetically modified products.
10. How many types of apples are mentioned in the text
A. Three. B. Four. C. Five. D. Six.
11. What do you need to do in planting apple trees according to the last paragraph
A. Water enough. B. Read many relative books.
C. Pay attention to light and nutrition. D. Prune the trees and remove insects.

A major meeting of computer hackers (黑客) planned for this summer is to include an event that will test the limits of artificial intelligence (AI) tools. The event, in August, will be held as part of the yearly DEF CON hacker meeting in Las Vegas, Nevada. Organizers say the meeting provides a chance for hackers to hear from leading industry officials about the latest developments in computer security. It also includes hacking competitions.
This year, several major AI developers will take part in DEF CON. Among them will be OpenAI, which launched its latest AI model, ChatGPT-4, in March.
Recently released AI tools are built by feeding huge amounts of information into machine learning computer systems. The data trains the AI systems to develop complex skills and produce human-like results.
Experts have warned that such systems may bring major changes to many different jobs and industries. It affects everyone from managers to workers to housewives. They also fear the tools, known as “chatbots”, could greatly increase the amount of misinformation in the news media and on social media.
Chowdhury, an organizer of the hacking event, says the results of the event can provide helpful information to companies looking at ways to safely use the fast-developing AI systems. She notes that the hackers’ work will not end after the gathering. They will spend months afterward creating reports on their findings and identifying specific system vulnerabilities (漏洞).
Jack Clark is the co-founder of AI developer Anthropic. He says he hopes the DEF CON event will lead to deeper commitments from AI developers to measure and test the safety of their systems. For this to happen though, AI systems will need to be examined by third parties both before and after deployment (部署). “We need to get practice at figuring out how to do this. It hasn’t really been done before,” he says.
12. What can hackers learn from this meeting
A The rules of AI tool competitions.
B. The application of model ChatGPT-4.
C. The future of hackers in the computer field.
D. The latest developments in computer security.
13. What does the underlined word “They” in paragraph 4 refer to
A. Experts. B. Managers. C. Workers. D. Housewives.
14. Which of the following statements does Chowdhury agree with
A. The current network system is approaching perfection.
B. The activity of improving network security will not stop.
C. The reports accelerate the development of AI.
D. AI systems need to be inspected by the third parties.
15. What do Jack Clark’s words imply
A. AI users must test the security of computer systems.
B. AI developers may overlook the shortcomings of their own products.
C. AI systems develop complex skills and produce results similar to those of humans.
D. The DEF CON event will encourage companies to develop new products.

Molly’s dad, Danny, and her mom Daisy had divorced ten years before. Since then, Molly has only heard terrible things about her dad from her mom. However, Molly didn’t have any bitterness towards Danny. She often missed their dad-daughter connection. After her mom’s death, things were going to change for Molly.
Danny was delighted to meet Molly again. The only link he had with his daughter all these years was through the child support he paid for her because Daisy never allowed him to see Molly.
Danny packed all of Molly’s stuff and told her they were going to his house. “But why, Dad I didn’t want to leave this house. Mom and I lived here. It’s filled with our memories,” Molly said.
However, Danny knew he could not leave his daughter alone, particularly considering her situation. Due to an underlying condition she had developed in her left leg when she was six, Molly limped (一瘸一拐地走).
Eventually, Molly moved into her dad’s house. The house was small and unfamiliar to Molly. In fact, after all these years apart, she didn’t feel very close to her dad, either.
The father realized that his daughter was not adapted to the new home and kept him at a distance as well. He did everything on his end to make his daughter feel loved and included. He vacated (騰出) his bedroom so that Molly would have a nice space to sleep. He even bought a new bed so that she could rest well.
A few days later, Molly stepped down from the school bus and entered their house. Hours passed, but Danny didn’t return home. Molly made herself a meal, leaving some for her dad. Then she lay on her bed crying. It turned out that Molly’s teacher had informed them about their upcoming senior prom (畢業(yè)舞會(huì)). All her classmates had found prom dates except for Molly. Nobody was interested in taking her. She figured — who would want to dance with someone with a limp

It was a typical weekend for Mitch White and his friends. They were out celebrating a bachelor party, sailing the peaceful waters of the Minnesota River. They never expected that this single party would transform from a relaxed canoe trip into a painful rescue mission. With the sun setting, an unexpected bark changed everything.
Led by Mitch White, the soon-to-be-married man, they searched for the source of the sound along the banks of the river. Suddenly, a weak cry for help came from the mud. They were surprised to find that the head of a 13-year-old St. Bernard named Ed was barely visible in the thick mud. Mitch said, “The dog wasn’t moving on its own, so we should feed it and give it water.” The dog looked like it had used all its strength.
The men took up their oars (槳) and began digging, their festive mood giving way to a focused rescue mission. It took them more than half an hour to free the trapped dog as it was already breathing very feebly after possibly being trapped for 24 hours. When they got the poor fellow out of the mud, he couldn’t walk, so they carried him back to the house. Back home with his owner, George Niskanen, Ed began his slow restoration—a happy ending to a dangerous adventure. George was thankful to the bachelor party heroes.
Now, the people of Carver, Minnesota, have new heroes to cheer for. Indeed, this incredible act of bravery and compassion redefined the meaning of a bachelor party. It became a heroic tale of humanity, friendship, and the instinct (本能) to do what’s right.

If you’re thinking about growing apples, now is the time to test different kinds and talk with local growers. This advice comes from gardening writer Lee Reich. His books include The Pruning (修剪) Book and Weedless Gardening. Reich grows an apple called Hudson’s Golden Gem, and he does so for one reason — the taste. He says the fruit’s wonderful taste makes it truly special.
When you buy apples at the store, your choice is limited to the 12 or more kinds available for sale. Gardeners, however, have more choices. They can plant any of more than 5,000 different kinds of apples.
Gardeners can also harvest their apples just as each kind reaches its moment of perfection. Reich says his Macoun apples taste much better than any Macoun apples found in stores. One reason is that his can be left to ripen until they nearly fall off the tree.
Here are some other flavorful apples to plant. The Ashmead’s Kernel apple was first grown more than 200 years ago in a garden belonging to Dr. Ashmead in Gloucester, England. The apple has a reddish, golden brown color. Inside, it has tasty, sharp flesh. Cox’s Orange Pippin is another old apple from England. It was first grown by Richard Cox in 1825. This apple’s orange and red color makes it unpopular in the American market. But it is loved for its strong taste. Ellison’s Orange is another British apple that came from Lincolnshire in 1911. It is a late summer or early autumn apple, golden yellow with stripes, with juicy flesh.
Before you run out to buy trees to grow the kinds you love to eat, Reich does have a warning: Apples are not easy to grow in many parts of the country. The plants require yearly pruning and insect control. But if you’re willing to learn how to keep the unwanted insects away, a few kinds of trees chosen for their taste will give you years of good eating.
8. What can we infer about Lee Reich
A. He is a teacher. B. He loves planting.
C. He grows a very rare kind of flower. D. His books are about how to sell trees.
9. Why are Reich’s Macoun apples tastier than those in the store
A. They are naturally ripe. B. They are planted in the garden.
C. They have been picked out carefully. D. They are genetically modified products.
10. How many types of apples are mentioned in the text
A. Three. B. Four. C. Five. D. Six.
11. What do you need to do in planting apple trees according to the last paragraph
A. Water enough. B. Read many relative books.
C. Pay attention to light and nutrition. D. Prune the trees and remove insects.
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. C 11. D

A major meeting of computer hackers (黑客) planned for this summer is to include an event that will test the limits of artificial intelligence (AI) tools. The event, in August, will be held as part of the yearly DEF CON hacker meeting in Las Vegas, Nevada. Organizers say the meeting provides a chance for hackers to hear from leading industry officials about the latest developments in computer security. It also includes hacking competitions.
This year, several major AI developers will take part in DEF CON. Among them will be OpenAI, which launched its latest AI model, ChatGPT-4, in March.
Recently released AI tools are built by feeding huge amounts of information into machine learning computer systems. The data trains the AI systems to develop complex skills and produce human-like results.
Experts have warned that such systems may bring major changes to many different jobs and industries. It affects everyone from managers to workers to housewives. They also fear the tools, known as “chatbots”, could greatly increase the amount of misinformation in the news media and on social media.
Chowdhury, an organizer of the hacking event, says the results of the event can provide helpful information to companies looking at ways to safely use the fast-developing AI systems. She notes that the hackers’ work will not end after the gathering. They will spend months afterward creating reports on their findings and identifying specific system vulnerabilities (漏洞).
Jack Clark is the co-founder of AI developer Anthropic. He says he hopes the DEF CON event will lead to deeper commitments from AI developers to measure and test the safety of their systems. For this to happen though, AI systems will need to be examined by third parties both before and after deployment (部署). “We need to get practice at figuring out how to do this. It hasn’t really been done before,” he says.
12. What can hackers learn from this meeting
A The rules of AI tool competitions.
B. The application of model ChatGPT-4.
C. The future of hackers in the computer field.
D. The latest developments in computer security.
13. What does the underlined word “They” in paragraph 4 refer to
A. Experts. B. Managers. C. Workers. D. Housewives.
14. Which of the following statements does Chowdhury agree with
A. The current network system is approaching perfection.
B. The activity of improving network security will not stop.
C. The reports accelerate the development of AI.
D. AI systems need to be inspected by the third parties.
15. What do Jack Clark’s words imply
A. AI users must test the security of computer systems.
B. AI developers may overlook the shortcomings of their own products.
C. AI systems develop complex skills and produce results similar to those of humans.
D. The DEF CON event will encourage companies to develop new products.

【答案】Dear Mike,
Learning that you are not used to the Chinese meals at school and that you have been eating snacks as a replacement, I’m worried that they couldn’t supply enough nutrition and energy, which would be very bad both physically and academically for you.
I am wondering whether you have noticed that our school provides delicious bread and pizza for breakfast. You can buy more and save them for lunch. In the evening, you can go home with me. Surrounded by a big family, you’ll find it much easier to get used to Chinese food. Please take my invitation seriously.
Best wishes!
Yours,
Li Hua

47. 閱讀下面材料，根據(jù)其內(nèi)容和所給段落開(kāi)頭語(yǔ)續(xù)寫兩段，使之構(gòu)成一篇完整的短文。
Molly’s dad, Danny, and her mom Daisy had divorced ten years before. Since then, Molly has only heard terrible things about her dad from her mom. However, Molly didn’t have any bitterness towards Danny. She often missed their dad-daughter connection. After her mom’s death, things were going to change for Molly.
Danny was delighted to meet Molly again. The only link he had with his daughter all these years was through the child support he paid for her because Daisy never allowed him to see Molly.
Danny packed all of Molly’s stuff and told her they were going to his house. “But why, Dad I didn’t want to leave this house. Mom and I lived here. It’s filled with our memories,” Molly said.
However, Danny knew he could not leave his daughter alone, particularly considering her situation. Due to an underlying condition she had developed in her left leg when she was six, Molly limped (一瘸一拐地走).
Eventually, Molly moved into her dad’s house. The house was small and unfamiliar to Molly. In fact, after all these years apart, she didn’t feel very close to her dad, either.
The father realized that his daughter was not adapted to the new home and kept him at a distance as well. He did everything on his end to make his daughter feel loved and included. He vacated (騰出) his bedroom so that Molly would have a nice space to sleep. He even bought a new bed so that she could rest well.
A few days later, Molly stepped down from the school bus and entered their house. Hours passed, but Danny didn’t return home. Molly made herself a meal, leaving some for her dad. Then she lay on her bed crying. It turned out that Molly’s teacher had informed them about their upcoming senior prom (畢業(yè)舞會(huì)). All her classmates had found prom dates except for Molly. Nobody was interested in taking her. She figured — who would want to dance with someone with a limp
注意：1. 續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150個(gè)左右；
2. 請(qǐng)按如下格式在答題卡的相應(yīng)位置作答。
Molly cried so loudly that Danny heard her as soon as he arrived home.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
On prom day, Danny accompanied Molly to the prom.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Molly cried so loudly that Danny heard her as soon as he arrived home. Danny rushed to Molly’s room, his heart pounding with concern. “Molly, what’s wrong ” he asked, kneeling beside her bed. Through her sobs, Molly managed to explain about the prom and how she felt left out. Danny’s heart ached for his daughter. He knew this was more than just a dance; it was about feeling accepted and loved. “Molly, I promise you, we’ll figure this out together,” he said, his voice firm yet gentle. That night, Danny stayed up late, thinking of ways to make his daughter’s prom experience special.
On prom day, Danny accompanied Molly to the prom. As they arrived, he guided her through the crowd, introducing her to some of his friends’ children who were also attending. He made sure she had someone to talk to and didn’t feel alone. He even took the opportunity to dance with her, showing her that her limp didn’t matter — what mattered was the joy they shared together. As the night progressed, Molly began to relax and enjoy the festivities, laughing and dancing more freely. By the end of the night, the bond between father and daughter had strengthened significantly. They left the prom with smiles on their faces, knowing that they had created a memory that would last a lifetime.
