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-metre stream 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, fairytale 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 Rivelin 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.
21. Which of the following best describes the atmosphere of Lumsdale Falls
A. Rural. B. Historic.
C. Family-friendly. D. Dangerous.
22. Which waterfall walk is recommended for photography enthusiasts
A. Kinder Downfall. B. Lumsdale Falls.
C. Padley Gorge. D. Rivelin Valley.
23. 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C. In a historical document.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.
24. 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.
25. What does the underlined word “fallout” in Para. 3 mean
A. Consequence. B. Answer. C. Pain. D. Shame.
26. 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.
27. 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.
28. 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
29. 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.
30. What may be the the researchers’ attitudes towards the computer program
A. Favorable. B. Pessimistic. C. Skeptical. D. Cautious.
31. 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.
32. 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.
33. 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.
34. 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.
35. 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. __________________________________________

One possible version:
Dear Jack,
On receiving your e-mail saying that you are going to pay a visit to my city and asking me to recommend a typical dish of our city, I feel so honored. When it comes to a representative dish, the dumpling will come to my mind first.
The reasons why I strongly recommend it are based on the following facts. First, the dumpling is a traditional Chinese food with a long history, also my favourite food. Moreover, not only is it easy to make dumplings, but also there are various fillings, which can meet different individual tastes. What is the most important is that the dumpling is a kind of indispensable food during the Spring Festival, which means hope, good fortune and family reunion. I really hope you will love it.
Look forward to your coming and wish you have a nice trip.
Yours,
Li Hua

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.
