Many of us get to see wild animals only when we visit zoos. These special places let us observe amazing creatures, from big lions and tigers to tiny lizards, and learn about them. It's both fun and educational, but do animals really like living in zoos
In the past, people could only see dead animals shown in museums. Later, explorers caught live animals and showed them off in wildlife park. Back then, animal welfare(福利) wasn't important. But today's zoos have changed a lot. They' ve made bigger enclosures(围地), taken away bars, and tried to copy animals' natural homes.
Some people think keeping animals in cages for our entertainment is cruel. But zoos say they help wildlife by teaching us about conservation. In the UK, zoos must educate the public because of the Zoo Licensing Act passed in 1981. Good zoos also support protecting programs, which help protect wildlife in their natural homes.
Zoos today state they protect endangered animals because of climate change. Robert Young, an expert at Salford University, says many species would be gone without zoos. Some zoos have breeding(繁殖) programs to save animals from disappearance. For example, Chester Zoo in the UK brought back a rare fish by breeding and releasing them into their local river.
Even though people still argue about zoos, new ways to see wildlife are being developed, like virtual reality(虚拟现实). Imagine walking through a herd of elephants in the Serengeti— it might happen sooner than you think. As technology develops, new ways to connect with nature may become more popular.
46. How did people see humanles in the past before zoos became common
A. They watched animal shows on television.
B. They only saw dead animals shown in museums.
C. They visited wildlife parks where animals were caught.
D. They watched live animals in their natural environments.
47. What was the purpose of the Zoo Licensing Act of 1981 in the UK
A. To prevent the use of bars.
B. To require zoos to educate the public.
C. To increase money for conservation programs.
D. To prevent the endangered animals from disappearing.
48. What's Robert Young's attitude towards having zoos
A. Cold B. Uninterested C. Doubtful D. Supportive
49. According to the article, what is one new opportunity being explored for people to experience wildlife
A. Visiting museums B. Attending conservation programs
C. Using virtual reality D. Visiting natural homes
50. What would be the best title for this article
A. “The development of Zoos” B. “Virtual Reality: The Future of Wildlife Meets”
C. “Are Zoos Good or Bad for Animals ” D. “Saving Endangered Animals Through Zoos”

Two Canadian teenagers, Faiz and Leo, have been taking on a series of wonderful challenges. Their most recent achievement was following the Lake Ontario coastline for 73 kilometers, walking from Toronto to Hamilton, Canada, in about 18 hours.
“We enjoy trying new things that are good for our bodies and minds. We like to overcome challenges like these. And we feel going on a long walk seems to be the purest form of challenge that you can have,” Leo said.
With very little preparation, the two 16-year-olds began their journey at 6 am, starting in darkness and finishing before midnight. They took several breaks, stopping at benches with nice views along the way.
On their walk, one of the interesting things they came across was a cargo ship (货船) which was no longer used. “You’ d be surprised by the things that you don't see when you' re driving and that you will see when you' re taking your time walking,” said Leo.
However, the journey was not only a trial (考验) for bodies but also an important test of minds. There were moments of loneliness for the pair, requiring them to support each other along the way.
Around 70 km into the walk, they ran into a person on a bridge who appeared to be experiencing something painful.
“I wasn't sure what was going to happen me and Leo, we tried to talk him out of it and ended up calling the police, and the situation was eased and everyone was OK,” Faiz said.
The walk is now long over but Faiz and Leo are not done challenging themselves, with plans to start a two-day 100 km walk in the near future.
51. What was the recent challenge completed by Faiz and Leo A. Hiking across the whole Canada.
B. Driving from Toronto to Hamilton.
C. Completing a 100-kilometer hike in 18 hours.
D. Walking 73 kilometers along the Ontario coastline.
52. According to Leo, why do they like to challenge themselves
A To receive rewards and praise.
B. To exercise their bodies and minds.
C. To stay away from life pressure.
D To gain attention on social media.
53 Which word can best replace the underlined word eased in paragraph 7
A. improved B. worsened C. faced D. created
54 What is the main idea of this article
A. Two Canadian teenagers enjoy hiking.
B Hiking offers more interesting views than driving.
C. Two teenagers completed a hike from Toronto to Hamilton.
D. Two 16-year-olds plan to take on more challenges in the future.
55. What can we learn from the two teenagers
A. Always have someone support you during a hike.
B. Challenges are only meant for adults and not for teenagers.
C. It's right to give up on a challenge if it becomes too difficult.
D. Setting and achieving personal goals can be a meaningful experience.

Asking ChatGPT 4, an AI chatbot, to write a 100-word email might take just a few seconds. But have you ever wondered about the environmental influence of this technology The rapid growth of AI is raising concerns. Many people realize that the tool comes with hidden costs, especially the large amount of energy used by digital services.
One of the main problems is the“water footprint”, the total water the AI chatbot uses in its lifetime.AI depends on data(数据) centers, which house servers that store and manage data. Once turned on, the servers produce heat. To cool them down, engineers use pipes to bring in cold water from cooling towers to take away the heat.
Data centers operate around the clock, making them very“thirsty”. According to The Washington Post, ChatGPT 4 needs about 519 milliliters of water, or a little more than a bottle for every 100-word email. Each year in the US, ChatGPT 4 uses over 435 million liters of water just for emails - enough to support a regular US family for 1,050 years.
Meanwhile, data centers are“hungry” for electricity. Writing a 100-word email requires 0.14 kilowatt-hours of electricity, which can power 14 light bulbs for one hour. Yearly, ChatGPT 4 uses up over 120,000 megawatt-hours(兆瓦时) of power just to help write emails. This is enough to support all homes in Washington DC for 20 days.
Now, businesses are looking for different ways to make AI more environmentally friendly. Microsoft uses cold metal plates with cold water to cool machines. Clean energy is also helpful; for example, Tencent's data center is powered by solar energy. Another company, Google, uses developed cooling systems that rely on outside air to cut down cooling needs.
56. How does writer introduce the topic
A. By telling a story. B. By listing a number.
C. By asking a question. D. By using a saying.
57. How much water does ChatGPT 4 use yearly for writing emails in the US
A. Less than 519 milliliters. B. More than 519 milliliters.
C. Less than 435,000,000 liters. D. More than 435,000,000 liters.
58. Why is Washington DC mentioned in paragraph 4
A. To stress ChatGPT 4's large energy use.
B. To explain where ChatGPT 4 is trained.
C. To introduce the location for data centers.
D. To discuss electricity wasting in Washington DC.
59. What can we infer from the last paragraph
A. Microsoft uses the solar power to cool their equipment.
B. Tencent's data center is more powerful than Microsoft's.
C. Google has the most developed cooling system worldwide.
D. Some companies are taking action to make AI technology greener.
60. What is the structure of this passage
A.①②/③/④⑤ B. ①/②③④/⑤ C ①②/③④/⑤ D ①/②③/④⑤

Many students find it hard to communicate with their parents. Last week, our school held the Parent - Child Camp to improve the relationship between parents and their adolescent children.
The activities were rich and colorful. There were team - building games, which required parents and children to cooperate. Children finished some difficult tasks with the guidance of parents. During the activity, children and parents acted like teammates and they all knew the importance of teamwork . Also, a heart - to - heart talk session was arranged for them to express their true feelings, which provided me and my parents a chance to communicate with each other better and understood what they care for.
After the camp, both parents and children felt closer. Parents understood their children's thoughts better, and children also realized their parents' love. Above all, this camp was not only a meaningful event to help us solve some problems between parents and children , but also was really a great opportunity to bridge the generation gap
