Fortunately for them, there are unusual museums to check out, such as underwater museums! How can you visit and what can you see? Many underwater museums are supported by companies that offer guided tours. A trained guide leads groups around a stunning underwater display of statues in each museum. Depending on the depth of the museum, visitors may be able to view the sculptures from a glass bottomed boat or by swimming on the surface. Other underwater museums are deeper and are most accessible to scuba divers. Why are the museums underwater? Underwater museums have many functions. One of their aims is to create a man-made reef environment where sea creatures can live. Thats why some of the museums are located in areas that were damaged by hurricanes or are considered underwater “deserts”. The statues in the museum are designed in a way that encourages the gmwih of coal and plant life. Over time. the statues and plants attract a growing number of fish to the urea. Florida,U.S.A Florida is home to different types of underwater museums. The states newest underwater museum, the Undenwater Museum of Art, can be found off the coast of Grayton Beach. This part of the Gulf Mexico is an underwater desert, so creators hope that the exhibit will improve the marine ecosystem. Cancun, Mexico For years, Cancun has been a popular tourist destination. And one of the major draws is the Water. The Museo Subacuatico de Arte is an ideal place for snorkelers and first-time divers. There they can enjoy more than 500 statues that help to make up a man-made reef.This museum was created to offer visitors a replacement for the areas natural reef, which has been damaged. Canary Island，Spain Mu see Atlantic。, oft the coast of Lanzarote, has an impressive display of more than 300 statues. They were created by the same sculptor who made the Cancun statues. They focus on mans interaction with the marine world.56.According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?A. It the underwater museum is very deep* viewers can pay a visit by boat or by swimming.B. Underwater museums are partly intended to rebuild the damaged ecosystem in the sea.C. The underwater museum in Cancun gives tourists a chance to view the natural reef.D. States in Museo Atlantico are similar to those of Cancun because ofthc same sculptor.57. What is the authors purpose of writing this essay?A.To persuade. B. To amuse.C To inspire.D.Toinform.B Beyonce Knowles can do something that many humans struggle with: sing and dance at the same time. But, it turns out this great ability is not unique to humans. The superb lyrebird, already known to be a gifted singer, can perform coordinated 协调的）song-and-dance routines(套舞蹈动作)that put most humans to shame. The superb lyrebird is one of only two lyrebird species living in Australia, the other named Alberts lyrebird. Male lyrebirds have tails in the shape of an ancient musical instrument when spread out. Like most animals with beautiful body parts, the males use their tails to attract females. Each one sets up a small mound(小丘)on the forest floor, where he walks around proudly and sings. He also shows his tail by holding it over his head. Lyrebirds are gifted mimics(模仿者)，so their songs combine their own calls, the songs of other species, and sounds they have heard in the forest. That would be enough showing off for other animals, but male superb lyrebirds also dance, Anastasia Dalziell of the Australian National University in Canberra filmed 12 lyrebirds in the wild. She found that males only danced during four song types, and that each song type was accompanied by a specific move. “Lyrebirds match different dance styles to different types of songs, ”she says. For example, when the male sang a series of rapid notes he also stepped to the side and held his tail wide. Another song type was accompanied by jumping and moving up and down, with the tail held narrow. “Our results suggest that the coordination between song and dance- -like movements we see in humans can occur in other animals，” says Dalziel!. Female lyrebirds might prefer males lhat are better at coordinating song and dance, although there is no evidence of that yet.58 Beyonce Knowles is mentioned in Paragraph 1 to .A. put most humans to shameB. introduce the topic of lyrebirdsC. show the authors admiration for herD. share the experience of the famous singer59.According to the passage, male lyrebirds attract females by .A.performing on a mound and showing their tailsB.walking in the forest with the heads held upC. having tails shaped like a musical instrumentD.singing and dancing with other male lyrebirds 60. What may Anastasia Dalziell agree with?A.Both human beings and animals are born singers and dancers.B.Female Albert s lyrebirds are fond of copying and showing off.C. Male superb lyrebirds are gifted at coordinating song and dance,D. Male lyrebirds can sing four songs, each accompanied by a move.C Artificial intelligence (AI) technology may soon be a useful tool for doctors. It may help them better understand and treat diseases like breast cancer in ways that were never before possible. Rishi Rawat teaches AI at the University of Southern Californias (USC) Clinical Science Center in Los Angeles. He is part of a team of scientists who are researching how AI and machine learning can more easily recognize cancerous growths in the breast. Rawat provides information about cancer cells to a computer. He says this data helps the machine learn. “.You can put the data into them and they will learn the patterns and the pattern recognition thats important to making decisions.” David Agus is another USC researcher. He believes that “machines are not going to take the place of doctors. He adds, “Computers will not treat patients, but they will help make certain decisions and look for things that the human brain cant recognize these patterns by itself.” Once a confirmed cancerous growth is removed, doctors still have to treat the patient to reduce the risk of cancer returning. The form of treatment depends on the kind of cancer. CiuTently，researchers take a thin piece of tissue，put it on a small piece of glass and add color to better see the cells. This process could take days or even longer, Scientists say artificial intelligence can do something better than just count cells. Through machine learning, it can recognize complex patterns, or structures, and learn how the cells are organized. The hope is that machines will soon be able to make a quick diagnosis (诊断）of cancer that is free of human mistakes. “All of a sudden, we have the computing power to really do it in real time”.We couldnt have done this，we didnt have the computing power to do this several years ago, but now its all changed.” Agus adds that the process could be done “for almost no cost in the developing world.He says that having a large amount of information about patients is important for a machine to effectively do its job in medicine. A doctor faces a series of critical decisions every day. The best a doctor can do is to make those decisions as informed as possible. Some of them are still hard to make. A doctor can ask people of whom he values their opinions and thats it. Imagine discussing these with an AI system that is even more rational (理性的)than anyone else. The University of Southern California researchers are now only studying breast cancer. But doctors predict artificial intelligence will one day make a difference in all forms of cancer.61.According to Rawat and David Agus，AI can be used to .A. take the place of doctorsB.treatall forms of cancerC.remove doctors mistakes D.helpdoctors diagnose cancer62. From the passage, we learn that doctors may benefit from Al because it can .A. use data to recognize patterns of cancerB. decide on the form of cancer treatmentC. reduce the risk of cancer returningD. monitor the medical procedure63. does the underlined word “critical”in Paragraph 6 mean?A.reliable B. importantC.evidentD.doubtful64. Whats the best title for the passage?A.How Do AI Systems Work? B.CanAI Cure Cancer?C.Can AI Make Doctors Better?D.HowCan Doctors Use AI?D In ray class in middle school, there was a girl who was considered the outcast of our class. No one actually knows how this exclusion originated, but we all followed it for no reason at all. One day after lunch, we girls sat on the track field，talking about little things that happened in our little lives. Someone brought her up，and soon the topic transformed to mocking the funny texture of her hair，the awkward way she walked and. I felt extremely uncomfortable but kept silent, because I didnt want to be the one “supporting” the common enemy. After all, its just a mild ranting session among a trusted group of friends, why should I bring unnecessary tension? Suddenly, one of my friends pointed her finger towards somewhere behind me. All of us turned around and saw that exact girl, hand still in the air, with a twisted look on her face. She lowered her hand in slow motion, blinked really hard for a few seconds, then turned around and ran off. For a second I wanted to stand up and chase her down to tell her that no one meant what they said, and that she is an amazing person being who she is. But my leas felt so heavy： I didnt want to make a fool out of myselfwhy bother taking care of the class clown (小丑）? People would think that I was crazy as w
