ChatGPT was released (发布) late last year by company OpenAI. The technology chats in a conversational way, answering questions from users. The online chatbot (chat robot) has been trained on lots of information from the Internet—it can have a human-like conversation answering questions, admitting (承认) mistakes and refusing to answer improper questions. Experts say it can be used to write articles, stories, poems and even solve computer problems. But there are limits (限制) to what it can do, which OpenAI 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 from people. 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 Google was created, people were unsure at first, but if teachers introduce the technology and teach students the advantages but also the disadvantages, that can help with their learning. In the USA, the New York City education office didn’t allow ChatGPT to be used at school and its Internet. They did so because of “bad influence on students’ learning, and worries that the answers from ChatGPT are probably not safe or correct”.
ChatGPT’s ability to answer questions caused some users to wonder if it might take Google’s place. Others asked if news reporters’ jobs were at risk. ChatGPT and other AI systems, have also raised a number of social risks, according to Carly Kind of the Ada Lovelace Institute, an independent research center to make sure AI works for people. Among the possible problems of AI, Ms. Kind mainly worries that AI might store the false information forever.
AI has a long way to go, and big ideas yet to discover. We will fall over along the way, and learn a lot from getting in touch with the real world. 4.What do we know about ChatGPT? A.It gives perfect answers to meet users’ needs. B.It’s a chatbot that can answer questions from users.

7.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.

Death is a part of life and it’s natural to grieve when an animal you love dies. Grieving—the feeling reaction to death—is an important part of the healing process (康复过程).
Deal with the loss of a pet
A pet is part of the family, so when they die, it can be very difficult and upset for everyone who loved them. It’s a big change to get used to and it’s natural to miss them. It can help to remember that your pet can no longer feel hungry, cold or pain.
It’s OK to feel sad, angry, shocked or to feel hard to believe they’re no longer alive. There’s no right way to feel or to grieve. As people are all different, the length of time it takes for you to feel less sad may not be the same as for someone else. Dipti Solanki, who helps people with their grief, says, “In my opinion, your feelings matter and are normal after you lose a pet. They can feel really big and difficult to control.” It’s OK if sometimes you smile or laugh and don’t feel so sad. It doesn’t mean you loved your pet any less. Share to overcome your bad feelings

It’s better to talk than to keep your thoughts and feelings to yourself. Solanki says, “It’s really important that you talk about feeling sad or afraid to your friends, because once you do, you will start to feel calmer and less alone. After you share your feelings, they become less serious and easier to deal with.” Talking about your pet helps to keep it memories alive because you remember the time you spent together. Celebrate your beloved pet
It can help to remember the funny things your pet did, what you loved about them and the happy time you shared. As well as talking about them, you can get creative. Print out photos of your pet and make them into a collage (拼贴画). You can also draw or paint a picture of them. Or write a story about something you did together or how they made you feel.
8.What does the underlined word “grieve” in Paragraph 1 mean? A.To feel sorry for losing someone you love. B.To become lonely for living away from pets. C.To become tired for taking good care of pets. D.To feel happy for leaving something unpleasant. 9.Why are Dinti Solanki’s words mentioned in Paragraph 3? A.To tell an interesting story. B.To support the writer’s opinion. C.To give readers more facts. D.To compare different examples.
10.Which of the following idea might the writer agree with? A.The length of the healing process is the same. B.Sharing bad feelings is like cutting them in half. C.Keeping the feelings to yourself is a proper way. D.It’s not necessary to feel sad for the death of pets.
11.According to the text, what can we do to feel less sad about the death of a pet? A.Talk to its photos or collages as if it were still alive. B.Never talk about it as if it never appeared in our life. C.Buy a new pet as soon as possible to forget the dead one. D.Remember it needn’t experience coldness or hunger anymore.

Many scientists believe our love of sugar may actually be an addiction (上瘾). When we eat or drink sugary foods, the sugar goes into our blood and influences the parts of our brain that make us feel good. Then the good feeling goes away, leaving us wanting more. All tasty foods do this, but sugar has an especially strong influence. In this way, it is an addictive drug (药) that doctors advise we all cut down on.
“It seems like every time I study an illness and follow a way to the first cause, I find my way back to sugar,” says scientist Richard Tohnson. One-third of adults worldwide have high blood pressure, and up to 347 million have diabetes(糖尿病). Why? “Sugar, we believe, is one of the causes, if not the major cause,” says Johnson.
Our bodies are designed to live on very little sugar. Early humans often had very little food, so our bodies learned to be very experienced in storing sugar as fat. In this way, we had energy stored for when there was no food. But today, most people have more than enough. So the very thing that once saved us may now be killing us.
So what is the solution? It’s clear that we need to eat less sugar. The trouble is, in today’s world, it’s pretty difficult to avoid. From breakfast cereals (谷物) to after-dinner desserts (甜点), our foods are increasingly filled with it. Some producers even use sugar to replace (代替) taste in foods that are advertised as low in fat. So while the foods appear to be healthier, plenty of sugar are often added.
But some people are fighting back against sugar and trying to create a healthier environment. Many schools are replacing sugary desserts with healthier choices, like fruit. Other schools are trying to encourage exercise by building facilities (设施), so students and others in the community can exercise. The war has not yet been lost. 12.Which of the following is an OPINION in the text? A.Up to 347 million people in the world have diabetes. B.One-third of adults worldwide have high blood pressure C.Sugar influences parts of brain to make people feel good. D.Sugar is an addictive drug that people should cut down on. 13.What does the phrase “the very thing” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A.Storing sugar as fat. C.Having no food to eat.
B.Having less energy. D.Eating too much fat.
14.Why is it so hard to avoid sugar according to the text? A.People today hardly exercise.
