Dear Miss Hanff,
You will be glad to know that the two boxes of eggs and the tins of tongue have all arrived safely and once again we all wish to thank you most sincerely for your extreme generosity. Mr. Martin, one of the older members of our staff, has been on the sick list for
some time and we therefore let him have the lion’s share of the eggs, one whole boxful in fact, and of course he was delighted to get them. The tins of tongue look very inviting and will be a welcome addition to our larders (食物橱), and in my case will be put on one side for a special occasion.
I enquired at all the local music shops but was unable to get the Messiah or Bach’s St. Matthew Passion in stiff covers in clean, secondhand copies, and then I
found they were available from the publisher in new editions. Their prices seemed a bit high, but I thought I had better get them and they have been sent by Book Post a few days ago, so should arrive any day now. Our invoice(发票）, total $4.20, is enclosed with the books.
We are sending you a little gift for Christmas. We do hope you will not have to pay any
duty on it. We will mark it “Christmas Gift” and keep our fingers crossed. Anyway, we hope you will like it and accept it with our sincere best wishes for Christmas and the coming year.
My name is certainly not of Welsh origin. As it is pronounced to rhyme with the French word “Noel”, I think there may be a possibility that it originated in France.
Yours sincerely，
Frank Doel

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 Christie’s Prints and Multiples will make history by offering the first piece of art created by artificial intelligence (AI) 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.
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, called the work “grotesque 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 Tolstroy (1828 – 1910), art is about creating emotion (情感). It’s “a means of … joining people together in the same feelings”, he once said.
So, if the emotion behind art is what makes it, 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.
“The human mind is what’s behind the AI technology. And the human mind is not a cold, hard fact,” said Oscar Schwartz, a professor of AI. “Rather, it is something that’s created with our opinions and something that changes over time.”
1. Why does the author mention the artists in Paragraph 1?
A. To introduce their works. B. To focus the topic on the AI.
C. To present a piece of news. D. To make an advertisement.
2. What does the underlined word “grotesque” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Strange. B. Simple. C. Messy. D. Understandable.
3. What can we learn about the AI-produced artwork according to Paragraph 5?
A. It comes from human works.
B. It shows human ability to create.
C. It expresses human feelings effectively.
D. It is beyond the imagination of humans.
4. Compared with the AI, Oscar Schwartz thinks human mind is.
A. limited B. meaningful C. changeable D. decisive D
A team of engineers at Harvard University is trying to create the first robotic fly. Designed to do what a fly does naturally, the tiny machine is the size of a fat housefly. Its mini wings allow it to stay in the air and perform controlled flight tasks.
“The added difficulty with a project like this is that actually none of its components is off the shelf and so we have to develop them all on our own,” said Robert Wood, a Harvard engineering professor.
They engineered a series of systems to start and drive the robotic fly. “The seemingly simple system which just moves the wings has a number of interdependencies（相互依赖） on the individual components, each of which
individually has to perform well, but then has to be matched well to everything it’ s connected to,” said Wood.
While this first robotic flyer is linked to a small, off-board power source, the goal is eventually to equip it with a built-in power source, so that it might someday perform data-gathering work at rescue sites, in farmers’ fields or on the battlefield. “Basically it should be able to take off, land and fly around,” he said.
Wood says the design offers a new way to study flight mechanics and control at insect-scale. Yet, the power, sensing and computation technologies on board could have much broader applications. “You can start thinking about using them to answer open scientific questions, you know, to study biology in ways that would be difficult with the animals, but using these robots instead,” he said. “So there are a lot of technologies and open interesting scientific questions that are really what drives us on a day to day basis.”
1. What is the typical characteristic of the robotic fly?
A. It’s automatic. B. It’s quite powerful.
C. It’s controllable. D. It’s very small.
2. We can infer from the passage that the robotic flyer can.
A. help do farm work B. act as a spy plane
C. fly at a very high speed D. answer many scientific questions
3. What is Wood’s idea about the robotic fly according to the last paragraph?
A. It has wide practical applications.
B. It is highly questionable.
C. It gives scientists interest in flying machines.
D. It points to a new direction in studying biology.
4. What can be the best title for the passage?
A. Harvard’s Study in the Field of Insects
B. Robotic Fly—a Copy of Real Life Insect
A. An Interesting Invention—Robotic Fly
B. A Breakthrough in Engineering Science

It’s a dream that has come true for many fans to get a close view of their favorite stars and take pictures with them. 36 However, sometimes their enthusiasm can cause troubles for others.
At Hong Kong International Airport on Dec 15, three young Chinese people boarded a Korean Aircraft. 37
The three people – two from the Chinese mainland and one from Hong Kong – were fans of Wanna One, a Korean pop band, who were on the same flight. However, immediately after taking pictures with their idols (偶像), the fans asked to get a repayment and got off the plane. 38 They had to go through security checks again, which delayed the flight by over an hour.
According to the flight regulations, all passengers need to get off and go through security checks once again even if only one passenger gets off the plane before takeoff. 39
Cases of crazy fans buying flight tickets just to follow and get a close view of their idols are common nowadays, reported CGTN. A series of rules were issued in July in order to stop crazy fans from disturbing public security at the airport.
“ 40 However, it shouldn’t go too far and hurt the public interest. To obey public rules is the best way to follow idols,” commented People’s Daily.
A. To make up for the loss, a sizable amount of money went to 357 passengers.
B. As a result, all the remaining 360 passengers had to get off the plane.
C. This is in case any dangerous things have been left on the flight.
D. It’s not unusual for fans and stars to share the same flight.
E. Some fans will do anything they can to realize the dream.
A. It was to fly from Hong Kong to the capital Seoul.
B. There’s nothing wrong with going after idols.

Dear classmates,
My topic is about life habits. As we know, no matter who we are, we should have good life habits to behave ourselves. Now as for us, it seems more important to follow some good habits, which are useful in our daily life. For example, if we follow the schedule to learn, go to bed and get up, we will feel quite relaxed, refreshed and efficient；if we choose proper food and go on a healthy diet with enough exercise，we will always have a strong body and mind to learn .
In a word, as long as good habits are formed,we should stick to and improve them. Thus we’re sure to benefit from them!
That’s all. Thank you for listening.
