2．Today，I've been recording an audiobook.I am excited that I have realized my life-long dream.
I will never forget at primary school I used to wait with breathless anticipation to take my turn reading out a paragraph of great works in front.At my secondary school，when students were encouraged to select and present a reading at "morning talk"，I often added my name to the list.
This was all handy background for my career in broadcasting.But，much as I enjoy hosting shows and interviewing people，I often find myself missing the simple pleasures of reading out loud.I'd thought about putting myself forward as a narrator（朗讀者） for audiobooks.But I'm not an actor.I can't do regional accents or play female voice.Non-fiction，then，seemed the obvious target，but I felt that such books were best read by their authors.If it were authors' own voice，their stories would touch me.
Recently，delivering my son's nightly bedtime story has reawakened my love for reading out loud—highlights so far have included Charlotte's Web.But I never thought I'd get the opportunity to do it professionally.
Then，last month，I was contacted by James Plunkett，author of End State，a forthcoming book about political ideas.He had no desire to read his book out loud，but as a fan of my program，he thought I might do a reasonable job.
So，I've spent this week in a studio，simply reading stuff out loud.And I'm LOVING IT!
Mind you，it's an entirely unexpected experience.It's disheartening when the recording needs to be stopped because I've just carelessly skipped over a ' the'，or had to clear my throat，or catch my breath.I've also learned how many words I've been mispronouncing my entire life：behavioral is BE-HAYVE-YOU-RAL，not BE-HAYVE-EE-AH-RUL.
Though tackling this 339-page book doesn't turn out to be that easy，I've found the whole process awesome，and hope this becomes the first of many.

A．Because he was specifically invited.
B．Because he applied for it in person.
C．Because he read many bedtime stories.

（4）What does the author think of being a narrator？

3． Anyone who uses the ChatGPT website can ask the chatbot questions on any topic and get a speedy，detailed response in paragraph form.The website lists ChatGPT's positive features as its ability to "remember what users said earlier in conversation" and "allow users to provide follow-up corrections"，and how it's trained to "decline inappropriate requests.
The company OpenAI is honest about some of the technology's flaws.According to its website，the chatbot occasionally "generates incorrect information" and "produces harmful instructions or prejudiced content".It lists a third question：having "limited knowledge of the world and events after 2021".
The New York City Department of Education banned the use of ChatGPT this month on devices and networks owned by schools across the state.The department mentioned concerns from local school teachers about student success.Oakland Unified School District in California and Seattle Public Schools have moved against ChatGPT，because it creates human-like responses that can be difficult to detect.Other large school systems including Miami-Dade County and Houston haven't banned ChatGPT so far.Universities including Princeton are refusing to ban the chatbot，instead，they are advising professors to set their own rules.
Blocking a particular platform may be far less effective than schools think."If students are not using it in their classes，they can use it at home or on their personal devices，" said Adam Phyall，an education technology expert. "Are we going to have a conversation about how we're going to unblock it？Or is it going to be：If we're scared，let's give it up and move onto the next thing？Instead，schools could use ChatGPT to teach kids how to improve their writing，for instance，"he said.
An OpenAI spokesperson said the company wants to help schools with their concerns and that users should reasonably use their AI-generated text.The company is working on a system for teachers to check whether students have used ChatGPT to cheat.
（1）What does the underlined word "flaws"in paragraph 2 mean？
A．Functions.
B．Faults.
C．Principles.
D．Applications.
（2）What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about？
A．The use of ChatGPT in schools.
B．The background on ChatGPT.
C．Barriers to ChatGPT's promotion.
D．Mixed reactions to ChatGPT.
（3）What is Adam Phyall's attitude to banning ChatGPT in schools？
A．Favourable.
B．Unclear.
C．Disapproving.
D．Cautious.
（4）What will OpenAI probably do next？
A．Train teachers to use ChatGPT.
B．Introduce ChatGPT into more schools.
C．Perfect the technology of ChatGPT.
D．Help educators identify ChatGPT text.組卷：5引用：2難度：0.5

9．閱讀下面材料，根據(jù)其內(nèi)容和所給段落開頭語續(xù)寫兩段，使之構(gòu)成一篇完整的短文。
I looked at my father's sugar-crusted hands，his shocked eyes，and I knew that I was breaking his heart.It was the worst time to say anything，to just blurt （脫口而出）it out like this while we were cooking and preparing the house for guests-especially because my father was busy doing the one thing that I was about to tell them that I would never do.But I couldn't hold it in any longer，and I needed to say something now，otherwise I would just be delaying the inevitable and probably have an anxiety-caused breakdown in the meantime.
We were standing in the kitchen while my family was scattered around the living room tidying up，pretending not to listen and clearly listening：Soft footsteps approached，and my mother was now with us in the kitchen."What is this，Beta？" she said.She was shocked；I was ashamed.
"I'm sorry，" I said miserably."But I can't do it.I'm not good at cooking.Everything I touch comes out wrong，and tastes terrible.Even the simple ladoos（印度甜品）I try to make fall apart."
"You have to practice，Beta，" my father exploded."You don't practice enough!All you do is sit in your room，and write in that journal..."
"I want to be a writer." I cried out what had been reverberating（回蕩）in my mind for the last three years.
My parents were astonished."The sweet store is your duty，Beta.Your duty to your family.We're counting on you because you are our daughter." my father speaked as though this was all that needed to be said.
My heart sank.
My father gave me a hard look."When your grandfather comes over for dinner，" he warned，"don't say a word to him."
"He's still recovering from his surgery，" my mother added severely.
My father turned back to shaping the ladoos."We'll discuss this later，" he said abruptly，and the conversation was over.
When the rest of the family came over that evening，I found myself sitting next to my grandfather.Everyone laughed and joked except me.When there was a period of quietness in the conversation，my grandfather said，"Beta，come with me to the kitchen."
注意：
1.續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應(yīng)為 150左右；
2.請(qǐng)按如下格式在答題卡的相應(yīng)位置作答。
Once we reached the kitchen，he asked me what's wrong.______
But my grandfather stopped him with a look，and gently laid a hand on my arm._______組卷：15引用：3難度：0.3
