Thankfully, Adeola is now out of the hospital. During his recovery, he found out that he had qualified for a once-in-a-lifetime opportu
18、nity to ask for a dream wish from Make-A-Wish Mississippi. While many teens would choose a memorable Disney trip, meet a favorite figure or get a PlayStation, Abraham instead chose to feed the homeless in his local community.The Make-A-Wish Foundation is famous for brightening the lives of children
19、suffering from critical illnesses by meeting their wishes. A wish typically falls into three categories: a wish to have something, go somewhere or meet someone. Abrahams charitable wish to give came as a surprise to the organization. Linda Sermons, a Make-A-Wish Mississippi representative, said that
20、 Abrahams generous wish was the first of its kind in the organizations 35-year history.

26、here are about 480,000 school buses operating today in the United States. These petro-fueled school buses alone contribute 5.3 million tons of climate-changing pollution every year. Replacing all school buses in America with an electric-powered model would be equal to taking 1 million cars off the r
27、oad, saving millions of tons of pollution annually.If schools in America were to swap out all of these school buses with electric-powered replacements, it would not only have plenty of environmental benefits, but also many health benefits for the students taking school buses every week.Not only do t
28、hese hundreds of thousands of buses have terrible effects on the environment, they also have harmful health consequences for the students riding the bus every day. Approximately 95 percent of school buses run on gas, which is proven to cause respiratory diseases and worsen existing conditions such a
29、s asthma.“Pollution from petro-fueled school buses is harming our childrens health and contributing significantly to global warming,” said Andrea McGimsey, Environment America Global Warming Director. “Our research shows that whether theyre boarding the bus or on the bus, kids are exposed to poisono
30、us air in high concentrations. Electrifying our buses is a common-sense solution for communities across the nation.”These electric school buses are already available for schools to consider. They are cleaner, healthier, and often cheaper for schools to purchase in place of petrol-fueled buses in the
31、 long run. Electric school buses have zero exhaust-pipe emissions, which could help reduce kids exposure to poisonous air on a daily basis.“When we put our kids on a school bus, we rely on these buses for safe transportation,” said Jeff Robinson, director of U. S. PIRGs transportation program. “We h
32、ave the technology to avoid these negative influences, so why wouldnt we drive toward a cleaner future?”8 What do the statistics in Paragraph 1 imply?A. The benefit of riding school buses.B.

35、t pop hit is created by a machine rather than a human being. Actually, getting artificial intelligence to understand many aspects of music is easier said than done. Describing things like musical structure, harmony, and form can be difficult enough when speaking with somebody who did not study music
36、 theory, let alone a machine.A new study out of China examines if AI can be taught to recognize some of these features and then to compose music itself. To do this, they used an AI enhanced with a program called the Harmony-Aware Hierarchical Music Transformer (HAT), a system that can turn musical d
37、ata into machine-readable parts and then review those parts for harmony, form, and other musical qualities. The system was then fed hundreds of pieces of human-composed piano music to learn what pop music is supposed to sound like.To see how well it could perform, the researchers asked the AI to com
38、plete a song. They fed the AI the opening to Guang Yin De Gu Shi, a real Chinese pop song, and then measured how closely it was able to match the song in terms of generating melodic segments (旋律片段) of similar length. For good measure, they also gave the same task to two other music-generating AIs wh
39、ich were less advanced than HAT. While HAT outperformed its computer rivals (对手), the segments it created were disconnected from each other and clearly not human-made, though they were roughly the same length as those in the human-made tune.“There is still a huge gap between the HAT-generated pieces
40、 and the real works,” conclude the authors, suggesting that a future study can attempt to create an AI that can “polish” the music it creates to close that gap.12. What can be inferred from Paragraph 1?A. It is difficult to describe many features of music.B. The latest pop hit is usually created by
41、a machine.C. It is no easy task for AI to compose the latest pop hit.D. Anything relevant to music is based on music theory.13. Why did the researchers feed the AI the opening to a pop song?A. To test if AI can compose better music than humans.B. To measure if AI can generate a well-matched song.C.
42、To analyze what pop music is supposed to sound like.D. To evaluate if HAT itself could write a complete song.14. Which phrase can replace the underlined part in Paragraph 3?A. In addition.B. In short.C. In conclusion.D. In response.15. What will the future study probably focus on?A. Designing an AI
43、that perfects its own music.B. Programming an AI that composes the latest pop hit.C. Making a machine that recognizes musical qualities.D. Developing a system that generates tunes automatically.第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Three Things We Must Do to Tackle Climat
44、e ChangeWith world leaders meeting at the international climate change conference this August in Glasgow to discuss urgent global action to meet one of the greatest challenges, many people still dont know what must be done. _16_ However, the good news we get from the report is that it is not too lat
45、e to avoid the worst impacts of climate change, if we respond rapidly and decisively. But how? It comes down to the following three things.Stop using fossil fuels gradually. _17_ That means no exploration no new wells, mines, pipelines, or power plants. We already have a vast amount of fossil fuel i
46、nfrastructure(基础设施), and it will take decades to end its use._18_ Sun and wind are the fastest-growing new sources of energy we have. Their costs have fallen sharply, making them the least expensive options and encouraging the adoption of clean energy in more and more locations.Protect the worlds forests. Forests all over the world currently absorb about a third of the carbon dioxide our activities send out to the atmosphere. _19_ And this must stop. To meet the planets growing food needs experts urge improved management practices
