Mr White: Hello, everyone. Welcome to the senior high English class. Now you’ve just finished your junior school life and are about to enter a new period in your studies. Do you feel     1    (confuse)?

Jack: Not at all. Though it will be     2     challenge, I had made some preparations before I came here.

Mr White:     3    (actual), senior high school time is very important and it is a golden time in our life. However, some of you may feel     4    (anxiety). What are your     5    (solve)to overcoming (克服) these difficulties?

Alice: I think we can get     6    (use) to the life by making as many friends as possible and doing more extra-curricular     7    (activity).

Mr White: Well, what are the     8    (difference) do you think between the life in junior high schools and that in senior high schools? Have you found some?

Jack: Yes. I prefer     9    (study) here, because there are more students here from different places. There is only a three-storey (楼层) building in my junior school. There are about 500 students there. And the students’ dormitory (宿舍) is very small and not     10    (suit) to hold all the students. As my home is not far away from the school, I had to go back home every day.

Two years ago, my mom told me that she     1    (send) me to a private high school. I was so excited because I     2    (start) a new chapter of my life. But the first two weeks at the new school was the most difficult time of my entire life. I was so homesick and I     3     (not know) how to cheer myself up. To take my attention away from my sadness, I     4     (throw) myself into my studies. I wanted to keep every part of my day busy and occupied so I     5    (not think) about how lonely I felt. Gradually, I     6     (start) to adapt myself to my new life. I just remember one afternoon, as I     7    (leave) the classroom after school, my head teacher walked to me and said that all my hard work     8     (pay) off soon. Now I     9    (be) in my dream university. So if you put your effort into something, the result     10     (not disappoint) you.

Are you still discussing and getting your head round Chat GPT,    1    potential will disturb everything from marketing to education? Well, Sora is about     2    (blow) those debates wide open. OpenAI’s Sora, a text-to-video AI model capable of generating     3     (remarkable) realistic and imaginative scenes from text instructions, just entered the chat room. A world where reality bends to the will of words has arrived,    4    (shape)a new era not just for technology but for humanity itself.

AI technology can prove     1     (confuse). A Scottish soccer team replaced their human camera operators     2     AI-operated ball-tracking cameras. Now, cameras would always follow the action by automatically following the ball. Sounds great, but fans who were watching the games at home missed most of the scoring plays     3     the AI-operated cameras constantly mistook the referee’s bald head for the soccer ball. Scores of viewers called the team     4     (complain). One even suggested supplying the referee with a wig.
