Sitting in my car, I was watching dolphins swim in the ocean. It was such an enjoyment. Suddenly I saw more and more dolphins become beached after the tide (潮水) went out. That was too dangerous. Those dolphins needed help--and fast.
Without thinking too much, I jumped off my car and ran toward them. I first called the police and Wildlife Protection Organization,but their hands were far and away. On the beach hardly a person could be seen. For those dolphins, it was a life-or-death moment. Not knowing what to do, I turned to the Internet for help, hoping people nearby could see my post and come to save those lovely animals.
Minutes later, three teenage boys of a nearby school were the first to arrive. It was like light piercing（穿透）the darkness. Then more and more people arrived after that. With direction from fishermen, about 40 volunteers were able to get to work on digging, pulling and bringing smaller dolphins to deeper waters.
However, to everyone's surprise, no dolphin left by itself after it got free. When the tide began to rise, the dolphins chirped（唧唧叫）to encourage each other. The dolphins stayed where they were in the water until the save was complete. Once all 16 dolphins were set free, they soon returned to their ocean home together.
It warmed my heart that the dolphins showed a sense of belonging（归属）-- helping each other in face of difficulty.Looking around, I understood that our volunteer group is very similar to the dolphins. On a cold November day, nobody was afraid to get wet or dirty. We tried our best to save the dolphins and communicated back and forth（来回地） to keep the save in order and to ensure the safety of everybody. I will never forget this experience.
Who saved the dolphins at last
The police. B. Nearby people.
C. A fisherman. D. People from an organization.
20. No dolphin left by itself after it got free because ___________.
A. the tide began to rise B. they had a sense of belonging
C. it was a life-or-death moment D. more and more people arrived
21. What's the purpose of the last paragraph
A. To call on the animal protection
B. To state the importance of the safety.
C. To speak highly of the volunteers' spirit.
D. To present the relationship between animals and humans.
22. How did the writer's feelings change after the accident happened
A. Happy→nervous→sad→happy B. Surprised→nervous→tired→joyful
C. Scared→worried→excited→peaceful D. Worried→excited→surprised→warm

ChatGPT, a smart AI chatbot (聊天机器人) tool, has swept the education world in the past months. According to a US survey of more than 1,000 students, over 89 percent of them have used ChatGPT to help with a homework task.
Developed by Us company OpenAI, ChatGPT is a powerful tool. You can ask it to write stories and emails, create recipes (食谱) , translate languages, and answer all kinds of questions.
Some schools in the US, Australia and France have banned (禁止) the use of ChatGPT. In the US, for example, public schools in New York City banned students and teachers from using ChatGPT on the networks and devices (设备) .
The move comes out of worries that the tool could make it easier for students to cheat on tasks.Some also worry that ChatGPT could be used to spread incorrect information.
"It does not build critical﹣thinking (批判性思维) or problem-solving skills,which are necessary for academic (学术的) and lifelong success," said Jenna Lyle from the New York City Department of Education.
Apart from bans, teachers are making changes to their classes to prevent the use of ChatGPT. Some college teachers in the US try to include more speaking exams and handwritten papers instead of typed ones.
However, not all educators say "no" to ChatGPT. Some Canadian universities are making rules-- how both students and teachers use it.They have no plans to completely ban the tool so far.
Bhaskar Vira, from the University of Cambridge in the UK, said that bans on AI software like ChatGPT are not wise. "We have to know that AI is a tool people will use. What we need to do is to make our learning, teaching and examinations suitable for a new use."he told Varsity, the school newspaper of the university.
Some schools in the US banned the use of ChatGPT because .
it takes the place of teachers B. it seldom provides correct information
it takes up most of the networks D.students may use it to cheat on homework
24. Jenna Lyle thinks that .
A. ChatGPT might offer the wrong information
B. ChatGPT is so far the smartest AI chatbot tool
C. using ChatGPT is not good for developing students' minds
D. ChatGPTis necessary for academic and lifelong success
25. Which opinion is NOT mentioned in the passage
A. Using ChatGPT makes students lazy in thinking.
B. The Complete ban on using ChatGPT is not wise.
C. ChatGPT will completely change present education.
D. ChatGPT can be useful for both teachers and students.
26. How is the passage mainly developed
A. By comparing numbers. B. By giving different opinions.
C. By describing characters' relationship. D. By asking and answering questions.

Many drivers are not clear about the roads in strange places. The navigation(导航)just tells the exit number, which makes it easy for drivers to get on the wrong road. However, people don't have to worry about the situation now.Lane(车道)-level navigation based on the Beidou satellite system(北斗卫星系统)will be popular in China.
The so-called lane-level navigation uses highly-correct technology to show people the real road pared with the past navigation, it can provide exact road guidance in some strange places to help them choose the best way.
In January 2023, an online map officially introduced an enhanced version(加强版)of lane- level navigation, which helped make good use of the Beidou satellite system. It greatly improved the speed of receiving information and giving answers and the accuracy of lane-level positioning.
In the new version of the online map, lane-level navigation can be used on all kinds of roads. The new version has a different advantage from the old ones: it can guide us clearly where to go in different crossings. With lane-level navigation, drivers can easily see which lane they need to be in, which exit to take, and which turn to make. This not only helps reduce traffic jam on the road, but also helps improve safety by making sure that drivers are in the correct lane at all times.
In big cities, for drivers who come to these cities for the first time, overhead bridges make it easy to make driving mistakes in strange places. So how does lane-level navigation help them After careful study, plan and organization,lane-level navigation uses the Beidou satellite system to improve positioning accuracy and guide drivers.
The lane-level navigation is a good piece of technology, which makes drivers safer. And it will be used more widely.
27. What can the lane-level navigation show us
A. The exit number. B. The Beidou satellite system.
C. The real situations in traffic. D. The highly-correct technology.
28. What does the underlined word “accuracy”in Paragraph 3 mean
A. The condition of being dangerous or clear. B. The level of being fast and safe.
C. The level of being simple and easy. D. The condition of being exact or correct.
29.Which of the following situations best show the advantage of the new version
B. C. D.
30. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage
A. ①/②③④/⑤/⑥ B ①/②/③④⑤/⑥ C. ①/②③④⑤⑥ D. ①/②③④⑤/⑥

听下面一段独白，回答第12至第15四个小题。
I am a primary school teacher on a small island. I’ve worked here since I graduated from the university seven years ago. This year, there are only eleven students and eight teachers including me in the school. Although there are a few students in our school, all the teachers try to take good care of them and offer them good education.
Every day, I get up early and then clean the classroom. I teach math at school and I have three classes every day. During the break, I often play the guitar and sing with my students. After school, I usually discuss each student’s situation with other teachers or help students with their homework.
Life on the island is different from that in big cities. We teachers have to share a room. In winter, it is very cold and we need to burn coal to keep warm. And there isn’t enough food or fresh water. Even so, none of us think about leaving. For many years, we have got used to living there.
In the future, I hope more students on the island can come to our school. And I believe our school will develop better and better.
