Visitrs will be able t get clse t—and even tuch—100 life-size sculptures f Indian elephants which are beginning a crss-cuntry jurney that aims t raise awareness abut cnservatin. The real-life elephants f the sculptures are persnally knwn t The Cexistence Cllective—the cmmunity f arund 200 artists in suthern India wh made them.
The sculptures can be seen in Newprt, Rhde Island thrugh early September. Frm there they will head t New Yrk City, Miami, the Blackfeet Reservatin in Mntana and finally Ls Angeles.
The rganizatin is planning t sell the elephants ff t raise funds fr 22 cnservatin rganizatins arund the cuntry as the tur prgresses. Organizers said 30 sculptures had already been sld ff, with prices ranging frm $8,000 fr a baby elephant t $22,000 fr an adult. In Newprt, the prfit will g t Save the Bay, which wrks t remve freign grasses frm lcal wetlands in rder t restre the habitats fr the birds there.
The enrmus life-like sculptures are made ut f lantana—a tugh freign grass that’s been encraching upn the elephants’ natural frest habitat, pushing the animals nt tea and cffee farms where their cexistence with humans has becme a genuine challenge.
“Lantana has displaced animals acrss huge areas in India, because it takes ver frm herbs and bushes that are fd fr animals,” said Tarsh Thekaekara, a wildlife cnservatinist specializing in human-elephant relatins. “40 t 50% f many Indian parks are taken ver by it.”

Fr the technically minded, GPT-4 is a significant change. Befre it, the primary way f interacting with ChatGPT was t type text-based questins and wait fr text-based respnses. Althugh a vice assistant was available, it was painfully slw and unnatural. I have tried, in recent mnths, t get ChatGPT t help me learn German. But the delays between me asking questins and ChatGPT’s respnse, ften in incmprehensible and unaccented American English, made it next t useless.
By cntrast, the live-streamed demnstratin published earlier this week, shwed that the new AI mdel culd analyze cde, translate languages between tw speakers r guide users thrugh a basic math prblem written dwn n a piece f paper, all seemingly in real time. It even laughed in respnse t a jke. Accrding t its maker, OpenAI, this is the new nrmal: an AI mdel that can reasn acrss audi, visin and text in real time. It appears t be anther significant step twards turning science fictin int science fact.
That’s great news fr OpenAI, a cmpany already valued at mre than $ 80 billin. It’s als gd news fr thers in the AI industry wh are trying t apply it int every aspect f ur lives.
But it’s less gd fr rdinary users. The ease t use helps us frget its riginal name, dating back t 1956: artificial intelligence. Artificial intelligence is certainly artificial. It’s nt yet intelligent—and arguably never will be even if the smth interactivity that OpenAI has labured hard t enable des well t paper ver the cracks f the underlying technlgy.
When ChatGPT first made its appearance in Nvember 2022, thse wh had been fllwing the technlgy fr decades pinted ut that AI in its current frm was little mre than pattern-matching technlgy.
S try ChatGPT by all means, and play abut with its vice and vide interactins. But bear in mind its limitatins, and that this thing isn’t intelligent, but it certainly is artificial, n matter hw much it pretends nt t be.
28. What des the authr think f the AI mdels befre GPT-4?
A. Dangerus.B. Intelligent.C. Cnvenient.D. Unhelpful.
29. What is the secnd paragraph mainly abut?
A. The new trend f AI mdels.B. GPT-4’s imprved functins.
C. GPT-4’s pssible applicatins.D. Dubts abut the new AI mdel.
30. When did the term “artificial intelligence” cme int existence?
A. In the 1950s.B. In the 1960s.C. In the 2000s.D. In the 2020s.
31. What des the authr imply in the last paragraph?
A. AI will be smarter than humans.B. We shuld stay away frm ChatGPT.
C. We shuldn’t be t ptimistic abut AI.D. ChatGPT will be mre intelligent in the future.

The idea that birth rder influences a child’s persnality might be as ld as peple themselves. Many mdern scientists still refuse t break up with the ppular thery. Frank Sullway is ne f them. In the 1990s and 2000s, he claimed that he fund a tendency fr cnservative research amng famus firstbrn scientists while mre radical(激進(jìn)的) research, such as the thery f evlutin and relativity, was mre cmmn amng famus scientists brn later in their families. He als fund similar differences amng military and plitical leaders.
But mre recent studies thrw cld water n the thery. Rdica Damian, a prfessr f psychlgy at the University f Hustn, cnducted ne f the largest such studies in 2015, using data frm ver 440,000 US high schl students. After cntrlling fr sciecnmic status, sex and age, the study shwed that the assciatin between birth rder and persnality was as clse t zer. Anther 2015 study cnfirmed Damian’s findings. After analyzing three natinally representative samples frm the US, the UK and Germany, the researchers wrte, “We cnsistently fund n birth-rder effects n persnality.”
Hwever, bth teams did find evidence fr ne quality that wuld please the firstbrns: The studies each shwed that they were slightly mre likely t have higher verbal intelligence.
“This desn’t necessarily mean that firstbrns are smarter r learn mre easily,” Damian wrte. “Mre likely, it’s because firstbrns spend mre time arund adults in their early childhd.”
Then why des the birth rder thery still appeal t the public as well as sme researchers?
“Part f the reasn may have t d with ur wn experiences that will always appear t supprt it,” Damian explained. “Firstbrns usually seem t be mre respnsible because they are mre develpmentally mature.”
Indeed, the science f persnality develpment is anything but settled. Mdern research using twin studies suggests that persnality frmatin is abut 40 percent due t DNA. The rest may be a matter f a cmplex cmbinatin f envirnment and cultural practices that help shape the persnality with which we’re brn.
32. Which statement might Frank Sullway agree with accrding t the text?
A. Yung scientists are mre creative.
B. Firstbrns are mre likely t take risks.
C. The thery f relativity was nce cnsidered radical.
D. We shuldn’t trust radical military and plitical leaders.
33. What did the tw 2015 studies find?
A. Firstbrns had much higher verbal intelligence.
B. Birth rder hardly had an effect n persnality.
C. Birth rder affected children’s emtinal intelligence.
D. Firstbrns enjyed spending mre time arund adults.
34. What can be inferred abut firstbrns frm paragraph 4?
A. They are cleverer and can learn much faster.
B. They are mre talkative than the yunger nes.
C. They are usually mre respnsible and successful.
D. They usually get mre attentin frm the family.
35. Accrding t the twin studies, persnality is .
A. influenced by a series f factrs B. usually decided by the envirnment
C. decisively shaped by cultural practices D. mainly determined by the bilgical factrs

45.A 根據(jù)空前“But yu must d it,...”可知,Alice Shapir的口氣非常嚴(yán)厲(sharply)。

本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了端午節(jié)的來歷及風(fēng)俗。
56.are 考查動(dòng)詞的時(shí)態(tài)和主謂一致。根據(jù)時(shí)間狀語each year可知,此處用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí),又因?yàn)橹髡Z是scenes,故此處用are。
57.which 考查定語從句。分析該句結(jié)構(gòu)可知,該句是一個(gè)非限制性定語從句,從句中缺少主語,且先行詞為節(jié)日,故用關(guān)系代詞which。
58.in 考查介詞?!癷n memry f”意為“為了紀(jì)念……”,為固定短語。
59. himself 考查代詞。根據(jù)句意“他感到很絕望就自殺了”可知,此處用反身代詞himself。
60.The 考查冠詞。此處的traditin為特指,故與定冠詞the連用。
61. practices 考查名詞復(fù)數(shù)。根據(jù)空前短語a hst f及下文內(nèi)容可知,此處填所給名詞的復(fù)數(shù)形式,practice 在此處表示風(fēng)俗習(xí)慣,為可數(shù)名詞。
62. pisnus 考查詞形轉(zhuǎn)換。分析該句結(jié)構(gòu)可知,所填詞與unlucky并列,作主語補(bǔ)足語,故用所給名詞的形容詞形式 pisnus。
63.especially 考查詞形轉(zhuǎn)換。此處用所給形容詞的副詞作狀語。
64.stuffed 考查非謂語動(dòng)詞。分析該句成分可知,所填詞在此處作后置定語,修飾bags;而且stuff與bags之間存在邏輯上的動(dòng)賓關(guān)系,故用過去分詞stuffed。
65. t scare 考查非謂語動(dòng)詞。分析該句成分可知,此處用所給動(dòng)詞的不定式作目的狀語。
