Laura Sides was a psychology major at the University of Nottingham in 2004. She first noticed signs of her dad’s developing dementia(痴呆) when she moved to Nottingham. She said, “Dad was a doctor, so he knew exactly what had happened to him, but people try to hide it when they are ill. Then, I came home for my 21st birthday and arranged to meet him, but he never showed up as he’d forgotten. That’s when I knew something serious had happened.”

So, aged 21, she decided to leave university and look after him herself. She lived close by, popping in every day to make sure he was eating, and that the house was tidy, before heading off to her work.

Besides challenging moments, there was a time when looking after her dad was a pure joy. “We’d wake up, I’d ask what he wanted to do that day, and however ridiculous the adventure is, off we’d go.”

Sadly, in 2009, 5 years later, Laura lost her father. Before he died, Laura went to a hospital appointment with him, where doctors mentioned that his form of Alzheimer’s disease was genetic meaning there was a fifty-fifty chance that she had inherited it. For several years Laura agonised over whether to be tested, finally finding out in August 2017 that she has the APP gene, meaning that, like him, she will develop the condition within a decade.

At first, she struggled, feeling as if her life lacked purpose. Then, during a sleepless night in the summer of 2018, she decided at around 2 a.m. to enter the 2019 London Marathon sponsored by the charities Alzheimer’s Society and Alzheimer’s Research UK.

She hoped to start the conversation around early-onset Alzheimer’s disease and to encourage people to talk about it more openly. “I remember when Dad was ill, people wouldn’t know how to react, but I want to be honest and open,” she added. “The more information we can get, the less of a taboo(忌讳) we will feel. That said, the support I’ve received so far after going public has been amazing—that’s what is carrying me through.”

24. Laura noticed her father’s dementia when .

A. her father told her his condition in person

B. people nearby informed her of his father’s condition

C. her father forgot his own birthday party

D. her father forgot to attend her 21-year-old birthday party

25. The underlined word “agonised” in Paragraph 4 probably means .

A. excited B. struggled

C. shocked D. delighted

26. Laura started the open talk in the hope of .

A. getting people to talk about Alzheimer’s disease openly

B. earning some money to help treat her Alzheimer’s disease

C. making herself stronger to fight against Alzheimer’s disease

D. raising funds for charities Alzheimer’s Society and Alzheimer’s disease Research UK

27. Which words can best describe Laura?

A. Caring and positive. B. Careful and honest.

C. Patient and cautious. D. Devoted and modest.

According to the International Union for Conservation of Nature, 33 percent of coral reefs(珊瑚礁) are in danger. One of the victims is the Great Barrier Reef in Australia, the world’s largest coral reef system.

A team of British and Australian scientists banded and came up with a solution to revive one of the world’s seven natural wonders. They used underwater loudspeakers to attract fishes to the dead coral reefs to help them restore. The groundbreaking process is known as “acoustic(声音的) enrichment”.

Loudspeakers are placed on patches of dead corals in the Great Barrier Reef. After careful observation, researchers discovered a favorable result—nearly twice as many fish arrived—and stayed, as compared to parts where there was no sound from speakers.

“Healthy coral reefs are remarkably noisy places—the crackle of snapping shrimp and the whoop of fish combine to form a biological soundscape. Young fish home in on these sounds when they’re looking for a place to settle.” said Professor Steve Simpson at the University of Exeter.

Reefs become quiet when they are decarded(退化), as the shrimps and fish disappear. “By using loudspeakers to restore this lost soundscape, we can attract young fish back again,” Simpson added. “Fish are crucial for coral reefs to function as healthy ecosystems…Boosting fish populations in this way could help kick-start natural recovery processes, counteracting(抵消) the damage we’re seeing on many coral reefs around the world.” he said.

Despite this groundbreaking discovery, we still have our work cut out for the preservation of coral reefs. The average water temperatures are rising, and problems such as overfishing and pollution are still among the pressing issues at hand. Also, further research is still needed to understand how loudspeakers influence the behavior of aquatic(水中) creatures fully.

Nevertheless, hope is still visible for the degraded coral reefs. The authors of the acoustic enrichment study remain to be optimistic in the power of music and sound to restore the reef’s abundant marine population.

28. How does “acoustic enrichment” function according to the text?

A. By scaring the enemy of fishes. B. By making degraded reefs noisier.

C. By appealing to young fishes. D. By making fishes multiply faster.

29. What does Prof Simpson think of bringing fish back?

A. It can help rebuild the coral reefs’ ecosystem.

B. It can benefit the other lives in the ocean.

C. It can make the ocean noisier and cleaner.

D. It can improve the food chains of the ocean.

30. What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?

A. The research has achieved a complete success.

B. It is tough to restore the damaged coral reefs.

C. Global winning is the biggest reason for reef victims.

D. Music and sound benefit endangered animals.

31. What is the text mainly about?

A. The threats coral reefs face nowadays B. The world’s biggest coral reef system

C. Various reasons why corals are threatened D. A novel approach to degraded coral reefs

Claude Monet, Pablo Picasso and Leonardo da Vinci ... the art world has never lacked talent. And now, a new painter is ready to join the list, although this one isn’t even human.

Next month, auction house(拍卖行) Christie’s Prints and Multiples will make history by offering the first piece of art created by artificial intelligence for sale. The painting is a portrait of a man called Edmond De Belamy, and is expected to be sold for up to $10,000 (69,000 yuan).

The work, which features a man with a mysterious look on his face, was created by software developed by the French art group Obvious. Laugero-Lasserre, an art collector from France, called the work “ridiculous and amazing at the same time”. This isn’t the first example of AI-produced artwork, as AI has already been used to write poems and compose songs. However, many people doubt whether it should be called art at all.

According to Russian writer Leo Tolstoy, art is about creating emotion. It’s “a means of … joining people together in the same feelings”, he once said.

So, if the emotion behind art is what makes the art, the ability to create and use tools is what makes human beings different from other species. And as a tool itself, the AI technology used to create the portrait is the result of a lot of effort made by several designers. Together, they “fed” the AI a huge collection of paintings from the 14th to the 18th centuries, until it was able to work out how to make similar paintings of its own.

The introduction of AI art could be the beginning of a new artistic movement. However, not everyone is ready to welcome these high-tech artists just yet.

32. Why are Monet, Picasso and da Vinci mentioned at the beginning of the passage?

A. To list world famous talented artists. B. To introduce a new painter as great as them.

C. To show the prosperity of the art world. D. To highlight the inhuman painter by contrast.

33. Why does the painting mentioned in Paragraph 2 gain special concern?

A. It’s the first AI-produced artwork for sale.

B. It’ll be auctioned in a famous auction house.

C. It’s the portrait of a man with mysterious look.

D. Its auction price is expected to be the highest.

34. Which of the following statement may Leo Tolstoy agree with?

A. AI technology is a tool for artistic creation.

B. AI is taught to express human emotions in art.

C. AI copied paintings of the14th-18th centuries.

D. AI art joins people together in the same feelings.

35. What might be the future of the new artistic movement?

A. Popular. B. Unclear. C. Predictable. D. Unacceptable.

【范文】

Dear Peter,

Knowing that you are involved in the Whole-book Reading Activity, I’d like to pick one from so many famous Chinese books—Journey to the West.

Basically, the novel is about Tang Sanzang’s journey to fetch back some Buddist scriptures and the difficulties he and his followers face in between. Along the way, Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing have to battle lots of demons, who all want their master because his flesh will give immortality to anyone who eats it.

Does it sound captivating? If you want to give it a try, you’d better get a Chinese dictionary at hand for reference as it’s written in old Chinese. I wish you would have fun reading it.

Yours,

Li Hua
