Why?Justin19:03 Dec.15, 2022I would suggest adding sign language(手语). Not many people know how to communicate with those who have hearing problems. It would be very helpful if we could start to learn sign language when we are young. This would teach us to treat those who are less fortunate(幸运的) with respect.LIKE (18) REPLYBen17:39 Dec.16, 2022 Self-defense(自卫). This would be useful when you are in a situation where you need to protect yourself.You may argue that physical education is enough. But P.E. only teaches you how to stay fit and healthy through exercise. P.E. teachers don’t teach any kind of self-defense, so we surely need to have such lessons.LIKE(23) REPLYWilliam22:11 Dec.15, 2022A subject that gives students a better understanding of themselves. According to some surveys, many middle school students don’t have a dream. A person without a dream is like a ship sailing without a compass(指南针).Teaching students to understand themselves better can help them discover their strengths and weaknesses. Then, they will have more confidence and a clearer direction in life.LIKE(47) REPLYLucy6:28 Dec.16, 2022I would suggest adding a time-management class.Nowadays, many students are addicted to their smartphones and other electronic devices. Some of them sleep late because they can’t balance their studies with gaming.A time-management class will help students learn that “first things come first”. This will help make sure that they lead a healthy life.LIKE (11) REPLY39. Justin suggests adding ________ as one compulsory subject at his school.A. sign languageB. self-defenseC. time-managementD. AI technology40.

She then passed out in her morning PE lesson and was rushed to hospital.Jennifer was found to have dangerously low blood sugar levels and was treated immediately. Her worried parents told the doctor that their daughter missed breakfast that day and ____45____ touched her dinner the night before. Fortunately, she is now out of danger. Her doctor says that she will make a full recovery in a day or two.Jennifer’s classmates hope to see her back at school soon. They say that she has struggled with eating problems for a long time. “Jennifer thought that skipping meals would be a simple way to reach her target weight,” her friend Laura Williams told our reporter. “She has not eaten breakfast for the last few months. She told me she had trouble concentrating in class. I ____46____ her that skipping meals was unhealthy, but she wouldn’t listen.”Jennifer’s case is a reminder of the ____47____ of the unhealthy weight-loss habits that have become common among teenagers of both sexes. In a society where being thin is often seen as being beautiful, teenagers sometimes turn to extreme methods to slim down quickly. According to a recent survey of senior high school students’ lifestyles, almost one fifth of teenagers regularly skip meals, one in ten over-exercise and four per cent even take weight-loss medicine. Health experts are ____48____ these figures. They are increasing their efforts to educate teenagers about the side effects of losing weight too quickly. They have also warned them against using such extreme methods.“These so-called ‘quick-fix methods’____49____ to be harmful to teenagers. It is normal for teenagers to be slightly overweight and there is no reason why they should be worried. However, for those who are dangerously overweight, it is very important that they try to lose weight properly,” said an expert.She pointed out that it is important to have a healthy balanced diet since teenagers are still growing and their bodies need a lot of nutrition to function well. If they do not take in enough food, they may feel weak and get ill easily. She added, “____50____, they should keep regular hours and get plenty of exercise to stay energetic and fit. We strongly encourage all teenagers to follow these lifestyle tips, because living well is the safest and most effective way to get into shape.”45. A. nearlyB. hardlyC. eagerlyD. quickly46.

He realized that the elephants weren’t being kept in cages or held by the use of chains(链条). Each of the giant animals was held by only a small rope tied to its front leg.The man felt confused. It was c____51____ that the elephants could, at anytime, break away from their bonds and run away. But, for some reason, they did not. In fact, they didn’t try to escape at all.He saw a trainer nearby. Curious and wanting to know the answer, he went up and asked, “Excuse me, but I want to know why the elephants are just standing there. Why do they never try to run away?”The trainer replied, “When the elephants are very young and much smaller, we use ropes of the same size to tie them. At a young a____52____, the elephants are not strong enough to break free from the ropes. They try and try, but fail each time. As they grow up, they are conditioned to(习惯于) believe they cannot break away. They believe the ropes can still hold them, so they n____53____ try to break free ever again.”L____54____ the elephants, how many of us go through life hanging onto a belief that we cannot do something, simply because we failed at it once before? I think every one of us can relate to this story and the feeling of having failed at something or another over the years. Over time, we might begin to think that we are not able to do a particular(特定的) thing and we a____55____ this as the truth and never try again. We think to ourselves, “I tried that before and it didn’t work out. What is the point in trying it again and w____56____ my time? I don’t want to look like a fool!” And this is how we start to settle for a life that is “safe” and “less exciting”. However, we could regard all the so-called “failures” in our lives as just stepping stones along our path, and decide to respond in a way that is positive. Say to yourself, “Ah, well, at least I tied. Now I know a wrong way to do it, so it makes my next attempt(尝试) clearer!”So, don’t limit yourself to a small world. Stay f____57____ on what you want to achieve and keep trying until you succeed. You will never know how far you can go until you have the courage to do it. And if you fall, just get up and try again!Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答问题）Recently, my 15-year-old daughter asked me for help with her homework. Unfortunately, I was already busy helping her brother. When I finally came to her 30 minutes later, she told me that it was too late and that she had asked Chat GPT for help. Through several rounds of questions and answers, the bot(机器人程序) had explained her physics lesson as well as helped her solve the problem. I checked the chat. The explanations were perfect.I wouldn’t call this cheating—she had not asked the bot to do the work for her. Rather, it was through her interaction(交互) with the bot that she gained a better understanding of the problem and how to solve it. This year is likely going to be the tipping point(爆发点) for AI. Below let’s take a closer look at what GPT is, how it works, its limitations and problems.Chat GPT is a big language model. It is trained on a large amount of text, which allows it to produce human-like responses to various questions. However, Chat GPT has trouble with complicated mathematical calculations. This probably shows that logical thinking hasn’t been fully picked up by such models. Moreover, in the current model, most of the training text was collected from publicly available data that had been gathered before the year 2021. As a result, such models are unable to produce accurate current information.As a free tool, Chat GPT has allowed students to complete their homework without much effort. This has raised concerns(忧虑) about cheating—and the loss of learning ability. Educators fear that students will become lazy thinkers. They will fail to develop lifelong skills like critical thinking(批判性思考), researching and writing.For sure, Chat GPT is a powerful language model. It has the power to completely change the way we learn and interact with machines. As the Chinese saying goes, “Water can carry a boat but it can also turn it over.” I think it’s important for us to remain aware of the problems that it’s likely to cause.58.
