Four Peak District waterfall walks
The Peak District National Park offers beautiful scenery for hiking. One exciting attraction is the region’s waterfalls. We’ve picked out four of the most breathtaking waterfall walks; visit just one or tick off all of them as you discover the Peak District.
Kinder Downfall
If there’s one Peak District waterfall that you must visit, it’s this one. Kinder Downfall is one of the best Great British waterfalls, where you can watch a 30-metrestream of water flowing from an open plateau at Kinder Scout. It’s best to schedule your visit after heavy rain when the waterfall is really in full force.
Lumsdale Falls
If you feel like stepping back in time, take a trip to Lumsdale Falls. The area includes many 17th-century mill (磨坊) buildings which used to be powered by the nearby rivers, and the ancient ruins create a timeless atmosphere in the beautiful Lumsdale Valley.
Padley Gorge
The journey to this waterfall has a charming, fairy-tale feel, making it perfect for a fun day out as a family. The walk is around an hour each way, but there are plenty of picnic spots where you can all refuel, as well as areas for little feet to safely paddle in the chilly water.
Rivelin Valley
Make sure you pack your camera when you visit this waterfall in the Rivel in Valley, as it’s one of the most picturesque spots in the Peak District. Follow the nature trail through the woodland where you’ll find dams, reservoirs, streams and a series of very pretty waterfalls.
1. Which of the following best describes the atmosphere of Lumsdale Falls
A. Rural. B. Historic. C. Family-friendly. D. Dangerous.
2. Which waterfall walk is recommended for photography enthusiasts
A. Kinder Downfall. B. Lumsdale Falls.

细节理解题。根据Lumsdale Falls部分的“The area includes many 17th-century mill (磨坊) buildings which used to be powered by the nearby rivers, and the ancient ruins create a timeless atmosphere in the beautiful Lumsdale Valley.(该地区包括许多17世纪的磨坊建筑,这些建筑曾经由附近的河流提供动力,古老的废墟在美丽的Lumsdale山谷中营造了一种永恒的氛围。)”可知,Lumsdale瀑布的氛围是历史性的,故选B。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据Rivelin Valley部分“Make sure you pack your camera when you visit this waterfall in the Rivel in Valley, as it’s one of the most picturesque spots in the Peak District.(当你在河谷里参观这个瀑布时,一定要带上相机,因为它是山顶区最风景如画的景点之一。)”可知,要对摄影爱好者推荐的是Rivelin Valley。故选D。
【3题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是第一段的“The Peak District National Park offers beautiful scenery for hiking. One exciting attraction is the region’s waterfalls. We’ve picked out four of the most breathtaking waterfall walks; visit just one or tick off all of them as you discover the Peak District.(山顶区国家公园为徒步旅行提供了美丽的风景。该地区的瀑布是一个令人兴奋的景点。我们挑选了四条最令人叹为观止的瀑布步道;当你发现山顶区时,只参观其中一个或勾选所有的景点。)”可知,本文主要介绍的是四个山顶区瀑布步道的相关情况,因此可以在旅游指南上发现这篇文章。故选A。
B
My phone rang after I boarded a plane. It was my former PhD adviser calling to tell me a preprint had just been posted that identified imperfections in a paper we’d published in Nature. My stomach dropped as he told me the authors of the critique (评论) were demanding a retraction (撤回). I was overcome by a mix of emotions — disbelief, embarrassment, frustration — and wondering what this would mean for my career.
I took out my laptop and logged on the airport WiFi to read the critique myself. It was unpleasant and thorough, pointing out several fundamental imperfections in our methods and the underlying data, which we’d gathered from other studies.
The fallout was swift and intense. I received a flood of emails and messages. Some were from supportive colleagues, while others were critical of our work. As the first author of the paper and the person who had done all of the data analysis, I felt deeply embarrassed by the criticism.
We wrote a draft response, correcting the apparent errors in the data set and defending our methods. However, after receiving feedback from peer reviewers, we decided against publishing our response.
When it became clear that the retraction was unavoidable, I formally offered my resignation to my department head. He didn’t accept it, saying a resignation wasn’t needed considering the errors in the paper were honest mistakes.
The experience helped me grow as a scientist. I learned that it is better to be open and accountable, even if it means admitting mistakes. I can’t expect myself to know everything as a scientist and my work will be stronger if I seek out diverse expertise and opinions.
In the end, the reality is that retractions are a necessary part of the scientific process — and one that shouldn’t be viewed only through a negative lens. Retractions can also be an opportunity to learn and improve. Honest mistakes happen, and researchers should be encouraged, not punished, for doing the right thing and retracting imperfect work.
4. What news did the author get after boarding the plane
A. His career might be influenced by his paper.
B. His research paper would be published soon.
C. Some mistakes were found in his published paper.
D. His adviser demanded that he should retract his paper.
5. What does the underlined word “fallout” in Para. 3 mean
A Consequence. B. Answer. C. Pain. D. Shame.
6. Why was the author’s resignation refused
A. He had a good reputation of honesty.
B. He didn’t make mistakes intentionally.
C. He had corrected his mistakes in the paper.
D. His response was against by peer reviewers.
7. What lesson did the author learn from his experience
A. Retractions can be a chance to learn.
B Scientists had better know everything.
C. Honest mistakes are necessary in science.
D. Admitting mistakes is really embarrassing.
【答案】4. C 5. A 6. B 7. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要介绍的是作者发表的论文被发现错误而不得不撤回,这件事让作者明白了撤回错误是科学过程必要的部分,也是一个学习和提高的机会。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据首段中的“My phone rang after I boarded a plane. It was my former PhD adviser calling to tell me a preprint had just been posted that identified imperfections in a paper we’d published in Nature.(我上了飞机后电话响了。是我以前的博士导师打来的电话,他告诉我,我们在《自然》杂志上发表的一篇论文的预印本刚刚发布,发现了其中的缺陷。)”可知,作者发表的一篇论文被发现其中有缺陷,由此可知,作者登上飞机后得知自己发表的论文中被发现了一些错误。故选C项。
【5题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线单词后的“I received a flood of emails and messages. Some were from supportive colleagues, while others were critical of our work.(我收到了大量的电子邮件和信息。有些来自支持我们的同事,有些则对我们的工作持批评态度。)”可知,作者要发表的论文被发现有错误后,收到了很多的邮件和信息,有支持的也有对作者工作进行批判的,这应是论文被发现错误后带来的“后果”符合语境,结合划线单词后的“was swift and intense.(迅速而激烈的。)”可知,该单词的意思与“后果,影响”意义相近。故选A项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中后的“He didn’t accept it, saying a resignation wasn’t needed considering the errors in the paper were honest mistakes.(他没有接受辞职,说考虑到论文中的错误是诚实的错误,不需要辞职。)”可知,在作者提出辞职后,部门领导认为论文中的错误是诚实的错误,没必要辞职,所以被驳回,由此可知,作者的辞职申请被驳回是因为作者不是故意出错的。故选B项。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据尾段中的“In the end, the reality is that retractions are a necessary part of the scientific process — and one that shouldn’t be viewed only through a negative lens. Retractions can also be an opportunity to learn and improve.(最后,现实是撤回论文是科学过程中必要的一部分,不应该只从消极的角度来看待它。撤稿也可以是一个学习和提高的机会。)”可知,作者认为,现实中撤回论文应该是科学过程中必要的一部分,撤回有错误的论文也是一个学习和提高的机会,由此可知,作者从这次经历中学到的是撤回是一个学习的机会。故选A项。
C
A computer model created by researchers can detect ChatGPT-generated fake studies with great accuracy, a new study shows. This implies that although the artificial intelligence(AI)chatbot ChatGPT may be a decent imitator of human workers in several fields, scientific research is not one of them.
In the new study, published June 7 in the journal Cell Reports Physical Science, researchers created a new computer learning program to tell the differences between real scientific papers and fake examples written by ChatGPT. The scientists trained the program to identify key differences between 64 real studies published in the journal Science and 128 papers created by ChatGPT using the same 64 papers as a prompt.
The team then tested how well their model could distinguish between a group of real papers and ChatGPT-generated papers, which included 60 real papers from the journal Science and 120 AI-generated papers. The program marked the AI-written papers more than 99%of the time and could correctly tell the differences between human-written and chatbot-written paragraphs 92%of the time.
ChatGPT-generated papers differed from human text in four key ways: paragraph complexity, sentence-level diversity in length, punctuation marks and “popular words”. For example, human authors write longer and more complex paragraphs, while the AI papers used punctuation that is not found in real papers, such as exclamation marks.
Creating computer programs to tell real papers from AI-generated ones is important because previous studies have hinted that humans may not be as good at spotting the differences and AI is still capable of fooling some humans with its science writing.
The researchers of the new study say they are pleased that their program is effective at weeding out fake papers but warn it is only a proof of concept. Much more wide-scale studies are needed to create better models that are even more reliable and can be trained to specific scientific disciplines to maintain the integrity of the scientific method.
8. Which of the following statements may be true according to the passage
A. Paragraphs created by ChatGPT are shorter and easier.
B. Every human behaviour can be imitated by ChatGPT.
C. AI-generated papers can be correctly recognized by humans.
D. Humans are better at telling real papers from AI-generated ones.
9 What does the figures in Para.3 indicate
A. The complexity of the test.
B. The importance of AI-generated papers.
C. The effectiveness of the computer model.
D. A perfect match between AI-generated papers and real papers.
10. What may be the the researchers’ attitudes towards the computer program
A. Favorable. B. Pessimistic. C. Skeptical. D. Cautious.
11. What does the author mainly talk about in the text
A. The application of ChatGPT in paper writing.
B. A computer program to identify.AI-generated papers.
C. The difference between AI-generated papers and real papers.
D. Possibility for ChatGPT to create convincing scientific papers.
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. D 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了一种可以区分论文是否是真实的科学论文和ChatGPT写的一种程序。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段“ChatGPT-generated papers differed from human text in four key ways: paragraph complexity, sentence-level diversity in length, punctuation marks and “popular words”. For example, human authors write longer and more complex paragraphs, while the AI papers used punctuation that is not found in real papers, such as exclamation marks.( ChatGPT生成的论文在四个关键方面与人类文本不同:段落复杂性、句子级长度的多样性、标点符号和“流行词”。例如,人类作者写了更长、更复杂的段落,而人工智能论文使用了真实论文中没有的标点符号,例如感叹号)”可推知,ChatGPT生成的文章段落不如人类复杂多样,即ChatGPT创建的段落更短、更容易,故选A项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“The team then tested how well their model could distinguish between a group of real papers and ChatGPT-generated papers, which included 60 real papers from the journal Science and 120 AI-generated papers. The program marked the AI-written papers more than 99%of the time and could correctly tell the differences between human-written and chatbot-written paragraphs 92%of the time. (然后,研究团队测试了他们的模型在区分一组真实论文和ChatGPT生成的论文方面的效果,其中包括60篇来自《科学》杂志的真实论文和120篇由ChatGPT生成的论文。该程序标记了超过99%的AI撰写的论文,并能够在92%的时间里正确区分人类撰写和聊天机器人撰写的段落)”可推知,这个计算机模型非常高效,可以很快的标记出AI撰写的论文,故选C项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中“The researchers of the new study say they are pleased that their program is effective at weeding out fake papers but warn it is only a proof of concept. (这项新研究的研究人员表示,他们对程序在筛选虚假论文方面的有效性感到满意,但警告说这仅仅是一个概念证明)”可知,研究人员虽然对该程序满意,但是却表示该程序仅仅是一个概念证明。由此推知,研究人员对计算机程序的态度是谨慎的,故选D项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第二段中“In the new study, published June 7 in the journal Cell Reports Physical Science, researchers created a new computer learning program to tell the differences between real scientific papers and fake examples written by ChatGPT. (在6月7日发表在《细胞报告物理科学》杂志上的新研究中,研究人员创建了一种新的计算机学习程序,以区分真实的科学论文和ChatGPT写的假例子)”可知,文章主要讲述了一种可以区分论文是否是真实的科学论文和ChatGPT写的一种程序,故选B项。

You scroll through Instagram and like every post you see. You read an acquaintance’s story as soon as they post it. You leave a comment on a post or two. Then it hits you: Didn’t you just leave a comment on that person’s post yesterday And the day before that And last week
An Instagram creep is someone who offers unprompted significant attention online to certain individuals they’ve taken an interest in. It is a strategy to send a signal of affection -whether it is to a romantic partner, or a close friend, but it can also be perceived as being too much, too interested and too involved. At worst, it might be seen as being possessive, as the person absolutely has to be the first to comment, to establish his importance in front of others.
However, not every Instagram creep has the same intentions, with some lighthearted and innocent. “For example, people who have a higher frequency of being online may have a higher likelihood of seeing the posts quickly, “said Maryanne Fisher, a psychology professor at St.Mary’s University in Canada. “In a way, it could be simply an exposure effect.”
“If you feel like you’re the creeper, there’s a quick way to fix the problem. Resisting the urge to comment or like every post would be helpful,” Fisher said. It’s important to be aware that while you might be doing it to express affection, it can be perceived as being possessive. You should ask yourself what your intention is. What need is getting met by that behavior If it makes the recipient feel uncomfortable and excessive, that should be attended to. If it’s a pattern and if it’s a “need”, then there might be something more significant going on.
All told, remember that anything you put on the Internet has consequences. If you think you’re being creepy even for a second, take time to separate yourself from it.
12. Who is likely to be an Instagram creep
A. An old man unfamiliar with social media.
B. A young guy having a preference for a certain brand.
C. A woman having a tendency to talk online with friends.
D. An adult who is paying special attention to his friend’s Instagram update.
13. What is Para.3 of the text mainly about
A. Ways to fix the problem.
B. Effects on the recipients.
C. Possible reasons for being creepy.
D. Differences between serious and lighthearted creepers.
14. What effect might a creeper have on the person being “creeped”on
A. The person likes the behaviour.
B. The person wasn’t aware of that.
C. The person might not feel at ease.
D. The person might feel like the creeper.
15. What does the author want to express in this passage
A. Less is more.
B. Look before you leap.
C. Love me,love my dog.
D. Put the cart before the horse.
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要探讨了在社交媒体平台上过于关注他人并表现出大量关注的行为,即所谓的“Instagram creep”,可能会造成不好的后果并被视为占有欲强,以提醒人们在网络上的行为会产生后果,敦促读者提前思考自己的行为并避免过度关注他人而造成不舒服的感觉。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段中“An Instagram creep is someone who offers unprompted significant attention online to certain individuals they’ve taken an interest in. (Instagram creep是指那些对自己感兴趣的特定人物在网络上主动提供无需提示的重要关注的人)”可知,Instagram creep是指那些对特定人物在网上不经邀请主动表现出大量关注的人。由此推知,最有可能成为Instagram creep的是特别关注朋友Instagram更新的成年人。故选D项。
【13题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第三段““If you feel like you’re the creeper, there’s a quick way to fix the problem. Resisting the urge to comment or like every post would be helpful,” Fisher said. It’s important to be aware that while you might be doing it to express affection, it can be perceived as being possessive. You should ask yourself what your intention is. What need is getting met by that behavior If it makes the recipient feel uncomfortable and excessive, that should be attended to. If it’s a pattern and if it’s a “need”, then there might be something more significant going on. (“如果你觉得自己像个creeper,有一个快速解决问题的办法,抑制对每篇帖子发表评论或点赞的冲动会有所帮助,”Fisher说道。重要的是要意识到,尽管你可能是出于表达情感的目的,但它可能被视为占有欲强。你应该问问自己你的意图是什么。这种行为满足了什么需求?如果它让接收者感到不舒服和过分,那就应该加以关注。如果这是一种模式,这是一种“需要”,那么可能有更重要的事情发生)”可知,本段主要提到了一种可能的原因,即那些经常上线的人在快速看到帖子的可能性更高。由此可知,该段主要讨论成为Instagram creep的可能原因,故选C项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段中“At worst, it might be seen as being possessive, as the person absolutely has to be the first to comment, to establish his importance in front of others. (从最坏的情况来看,这种行为可能被视为占有欲强,这让人感到不舒服)”可知,这种行为会让人觉得自在,故选C项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“All told, remember that anything you put on the Internet has consequences. If you think you’re being creepy even for a second, take time to separate yourself from it. (总而言之,请记住,你在互联网上发布的任何内容都会产生后果。如果你认为自己怪异,哪怕是一秒钟,花点时间把自己与它分开)”可知,作者提到了一切放在互联网上都有后果的警示,如果你觉得自己行为怪异,就要及时纠正。由此推知,作者想要表达的是三思而后行的意思,故选B项。

A Panting Trout
Julia always enjoyed running through The Dark Walk towards the light at the end of it, which was a dark, damp tunnel of smooth branches. This year she had the extra joy of showing it to her small brother, Stephen, and of terrifying him as well as herself.
One day they found a hole on one side of the walk. Inside there was water, where they perceived (察觉、发现) a breathless trout (鳟鱼). They were both so thrilled that they were no longer afraid of the darkness as they bent down and peered at the fish panting (喘气) in his tiny prison, his silver stomach going up and down like an engine, otherwise he was motionless. Julia wondered what he ate and thought of his hunger. She found him a worm. But he ignored the food, and just went on panting. She bent over him, wondering how he had been here. All the winter, in the dark tunnel, all day, all night, floating around alone.
Nobody knew how the fish got here. Her mother suggested that a bird had carried it here. Her father thought that in the winter a small stream might have carried it down there as a baby, and it had been safe until summer came and the water began to dry up.
Before going to bed, Stephen asked his mummy to tell him a story as usual, while Julia lay in her bed, not interested in it. That night mom told a story about a trapped little fish. “And so, in the end, the naughty fish got bigger and bigger, and the water got less and less…Then a Fairy Godmother appeared…”
Passionately, she turned around and cried, “Mummy, don’t make it a horrible old story.” Staring at the moon she knew there was no such thing as a fairy and that actually the trout, down in the tunnel, was panting for his life:
She sat up in the silent night and Stephen was sound asleep.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Julia poured the trout out of the pot into the river.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】参考范文1:
She sat up in the silent night and Stephen was sound asleep. The image of the panting trout in the tiny hole wandered in Julia’s mind, making her toss and turn in bed. Unable to ignore her growing concern, she decided to do something for the fish. She sneaked into the kitchen, took a pot full of water, and then tiptoed out of the house. When going through the familiar tunnel and coming to the hole, she knelt down and reached out her hand into the muddy hole. Having tried several times, eventually she grasped him, put him into the pot, and then raced to a river.
Julia poured the trout out of the pot into the river. At first, the fish hesitated for a moment, confused by its sudden freedom. Then, with a surge of energy, it swam away, disappearing into the depths of the river. Then all she saw was the glimmer of the moon in the silent flowing river. After going back, she put down the pot and flew through the air like a bird into bed, relieved. In the morning Stephen rushed to her, shouting that he was gone, and asking where and how. Lifting her nose in the air, she said proudly, “Fairy Godmother, I suppose ” and strolled away.
参考范文2:
She sat up in the silent night and Stephen was sound asleep. Her mind filled with thoughts of the trout and the hope that it had found its freedom while Stephen was unaware of the anxiety that Julia was going through. Determined to bring peace to her restless mind, Julia decided to take action. Unable to bear the fish’s suffering any longer, she quietly got out of bed and tiptoed downstairs. When she came to the hole, she squatted down, reaching her hand into the hole. Having tried several times, eventually she gripped him, put him into the pot, and then raced to a river.
Julia poured the trout out of the pot into the river. As soon as the fish touched the water, it started to swim, its movements becoming more lively. The once panting fish now seemed to dance gracefully in the water, which embraced the fish, carrying it away from the narrow tiny hole in the tunnel. The trout’s silver figure glittered under the moonlight, almost as if it were dancing with newfound freedom. Julia watched in amazement as the trout disappeared into the depths of the river, blending in with its natural habitat. Julia stood there, bathed in the moon’s soft glow, feeling a rush of relief and happiness.

A
Four Peak District waterfall walks
The Peak District National Park offers beautiful scenery for hiking. One exciting attraction is the region’s waterfalls. We’ve picked out four of the most breathtaking waterfall walks; visit just one or tick off all of them as you discover the Peak District.
Kinder Downfall
If there’s one Peak District waterfall that you must visit, it’s this one. Kinder Downfall is one of the best Great British waterfalls, where you can watch a 30-metrestream of water flowing from an open plateau at Kinder Scout. It’s best to schedule your visit after heavy rain when the waterfall is really in full force.
Lumsdale Falls
If you feel like stepping back in time, take a trip to Lumsdale Falls. The area includes many 17th-century mill (磨坊) buildings which used to be powered by the nearby rivers, and the ancient ruins create a timeless atmosphere in the beautiful Lumsdale Valley.
Padley Gorge
The journey to this waterfall has a charming, fairy-tale feel, making it perfect for a fun day out as a family. The walk is around an hour each way, but there are plenty of picnic spots where you can all refuel, as well as areas for little feet to safely paddle in the chilly water.
Rivelin Valley
Make sure you pack your camera when you visit this waterfall in the Rivel in Valley, as it’s one of the most picturesque spots in the Peak District. Follow the nature trail through the woodland where you’ll find dams, reservoirs, streams and a series of very pretty waterfalls.
1. Which of the following best describes the atmosphere of Lumsdale Falls
A. Rural. B. Historic. C. Family-friendly. D. Dangerous.
2. Which waterfall walk is recommended for photography enthusiasts
A. Kinder Downfall. B. Lumsdale Falls.
C. Padley Gorge. D. Rivelin Valley.
3. Where can the text be found
A. In a travel guide. B. In a news article.
C. In a historical document. D. In a scientific journal.
B
My phone rang after I boarded a plane. It was my former PhD adviser calling to tell me a preprint had just been posted that identified imperfections in a paper we’d published in Nature. My stomach dropped as he told me the authors of the critique (评论) were demanding a retraction (撤回). I was overcome by a mix of emotions — disbelief, embarrassment, frustration — and wondering what this would mean for my career.
I took out my laptop and logged on the airport WiFi to read the critique myself. It was unpleasant and thorough, pointing out several fundamental imperfections in our methods and the underlying data, which we’d gathered from other studies.
The fallout was swift and intense. I received a flood of emails and messages. Some were from supportive colleagues, while others were critical of our work. As the first author of the paper and the person who had done all of the data analysis, I felt deeply embarrassed by the criticism.
We wrote a draft response correcting the apparent errors in the data set and defending our methods. However, after receiving feedback from peer reviewers, we decided against publishing our response.
When it became clear that the retraction was unavoidable, I formally offered my resignation to my department head. He didn’t accept it, saying a resignation wasn’t needed considering the errors in the paper were honest mistakes.
The experience helped me grow as a scientist. I learned that it is better to be open and accountable, even if it means admitting mistakes. I can’t expect myself to know everything as a scientist and my work will be stronger if I seek out diverse expertise and opinions.
In the end, the reality is that retractions are a necessary part of the scientific process — and one that shouldn’t be viewed only through a negative lens. Retractions can also be an opportunity to learn and improve. Honest mistakes happen, and researchers should be encouraged, not punished, for doing the right thing and retracting imperfect work.
4. What news did the author get after boarding the plane
A. His career might be influenced by his paper.
B. His research paper would be published soon.
C. Some mistakes were found in his published paper.
D. His adviser demanded that he should retract his paper.
5. What does the underlined word “fallout” in Para. 3 mean
A. Consequence. B. Answer. C. Pain. D. Shame.
6. Why was the author’s resignation refused
A. He had a good reputation of honesty.
B. He didn’t make mistakes intentionally.
C. He had corrected his mistakes in the paper.
D. His response was against by peer reviewers.
7. What lesson did the author learn from his experience
A. Retractions can be a chance to learn.
B. Scientists had better know everything.
C. Honest mistakes are necessary in science.
D. Admitting mistakes is really embarrassing.
C
A computer model created by researchers can detect ChatGPT-generated fake studies with great accuracy, a new study shows. This implies that although the artificial intelligence(AI)chatbot ChatGPT may be a decent imitator of human workers in several fields, scientific research is not one of them.
In the new study, published June 7 in the journal Cell Reports Physical Science, researchers created a new computer learning program to tell the differences between real scientific papers and fake examples written by ChatGPT. The scientists trained the program to identify key differences between 64 real studies published in the journal Science and 128 papers created by ChatGPT using the same 64 papers as a prompt.
The team then tested how well their model could distinguish between a group of real papers and ChatGPT-generated papers, which included 60 real papers from the journal Science and 120 AI-generated papers. The program marked the AI-written papers more than 99%of the time and could correctly tell the differences between human-written and chatbot-written paragraphs 92%of the time.
ChatGPT-generated papers differed from human text in four key ways: paragraph complexity, sentence-level diversity in length, punctuation marks and “popular words”. For example, human authors write longer and more complex paragraphs, while the AI papers used punctuation that is not found in real papers, such as exclamation marks.
Creating computer programs to tell real papers from AI-generated ones is important because previous studies have hinted that humans may not be as good at spotting the differences and AI is still capable of fooling some humans with its science writing.
The researchers of the new study say they are pleased that their program is effective at weeding out fake papers but warn it is only a proof of concept. Much more wide-scale studies are needed to create better models that are even more reliable and can be trained to specific scientific disciplines to maintain the integrity of the scientific method.
8. Which of the following statements may be true according to the passage
A. Paragraphs created by ChatGPT are shorter and easier.
B. Every human behaviour can be imitated by ChatGPT.
C. AI-generated papers can be correctly recognized by humans.
D. Humans are better at telling real papers from AI-generated ones.
9. What does the figures in Para.3 indicate
A. The complexity of the test.
B. The importance of AI-generated papers.
C. The effectiveness of the computer model.
D. A perfect match between AI-generated papers and real papers.
10. What may be the the researchers’ attitudes towards the computer program
A. Favorable. B. Pessimistic. C. Skeptical. D. Cautious.
11. What does the author mainly talk about in the text
A. The application of ChatGPT in paper writing.
B. A computer program to identify.AI-generated papers.
C. The difference between AI-generated papers and real papers.
D. Possibility for ChatGPT to create convincing scientific papers.

You scroll through Instagram and like every post you see. You read an acquaintance’s story as soon as they post it. You leave a comment on a post or two. Then it hits you: Didn’t you just leave a comment on that person’s post yesterday And the day before that And last week
An Instagram creep is someone who offers unprompted significant attention online to certain individuals they’ve taken an interest in. It is a strategy to send a signal of affection -whether it is to a romantic partner, or a close friend, but it can also be perceived as being too much, too interested and too involved. At worst, it might be seen as being possessive, as the person absolutely has to be the first to comment, to establish his importance in front of others.
However, not every Instagram creep has the same intentions, with some lighthearted and innocent. “For example, people who have a higher frequency of being online may have a higher likelihood of seeing the posts quickly, “said Maryanne Fisher, a psychology professor at St.Mary’s University in Canada. “In a way, it could be simply an exposure effect.”
“If you feel like you’re the creeper, there’s a quick way to fix the problem. Resisting the urge to comment or like every post would be helpful,” Fisher said. It’s important to be aware that while you might be doing it to express affection, it can be perceived as being possessive. You should ask yourself what your intention is. What need is getting met by that behavior If it makes the recipient feel uncomfortable and excessive, that should be attended to. If it’s a pattern and if it’s a “need”, then there might be something more significant going on.
All told, remember that anything you put on the Internet has consequences. If you think you’re being creepy even for a second, take time to separate yourself from it.
12. Who is likely to be an Instagram creep
A. An old man unfamiliar with social media.
B. A young guy having a preference for a certain brand.
C. A woman having a tendency to talk online with friends.
D. An adult who is paying special attention to his friend’s Instagram update.
13. What is Para.3 of the text mainly about
A. Ways to fix the problem.
B. Effects on the recipients.
C. Possible reasons for being creepy.
D. Differences between serious and lighthearted creepers.
14. What effect might a creeper have on the person being “creeped”on
A. The person likes the behaviour.
B. The person wasn’t aware of that.
C. The person might not feel at ease.
D. The person might feel like the creeper.
15. What does the author want to express in this passage
A Less is more.
B. Look before you leap.
C. Love me,love my dog.
D. Put the cart before the horse.

A Panting Trout
Julia always enjoyed running through The Dark Walk towards the light at the end of it, which was a dark, damp tunnel of smooth branches. This year she had the extra joy of showing it to her small brother, Stephen, and of terrifying him as well as herself.
One day they found a hole on one side of the walk. Inside there was water, where they perceived (察觉、发现) a breathless trout (鳟鱼). They were both so thrilled that they were no longer afraid of the darkness as they bent down and peered at the fish panting (喘气) in his tiny prison, his silver stomach going up and down like an engine, otherwise he was motionless. Julia wondered what he ate and thought of his hunger. She found him a worm. But he ignored the food, and just went on panting. She bent over him, wondering how he had been here. All the winter, in the dark tunnel, all day, all night, floating around alone.
Nobody knew how the fish got here. Her mother suggested that a bird had carried it here. Her father thought that in the winter a small stream might have carried it down there as a baby, and it had been safe until summer came and the water began to dry up.
Before going to bed, Stephen asked his mummy to tell him a story as usual, while Julia lay in her bed, not interested in it. That night mom told a story about a trapped little fish. “And so, in the end, the naughty fish got bigger and bigger, and the water got less and less…Then a Fairy Godmother appeared…”
Passionately, she turned around and cried, “Mummy, don’t make it a horrible old story.” Staring at the moon she knew there was no such thing as a fairy and that actually the trout, down in the tunnel, was panting for his life:
She sat up in the silent night and Stephen was sound asleep.

Julia poured the trout out of the pot into the river.
