A blogger from Sichuan, nicknamed “AI Crazy House,”     1     (release) an AI-generated animated short film of “Journey to the West”     2     the Internet. The film shocked netizens with its visual effects and opened up new     3     (possibility) for presenting classic works in film and television.

Through deep learning and innovative techniques, AI reinterpreted this Chinese literary masterpiece,     4     (deliver) breathtaking visual effects and emotional experiences.

The blogger, Mr. Feng, has 15 years of art experience. He stated that the video,     5     would have taken at least six months to produce manually, was completed in a week with the help of AI.

He also explained the steps     6     (generate) videos with AI. Taking the first episode of “Journey to the West” as     7     example, from the beginning of chaos to the birth of the stone monkey to the learning of art, he emphasized the need to determine the required number of pictures and storyboards.

He mentioned using ChatGPT to analyze the original text, complete storyboard planning, use AI painting software for drawing,     8     then employ “picture-to-video” software to animate the images.

These processes     9     (general) produce a large number of preliminary drafts. “At present, it is difficult for AI     10     (understand) my meaning.” Mr. Feng said.

2 . “The Worthington Christian defeated the Westerville North by 2—1 in an Ohio boys’ soccer game on Saturday.” That’s according to a story that appeared last month in The Columbus Dispatch. That lead was written not by a sportswriter, but by an artificial intelligence (AI) tool.

Many news organizations are now examining how AI might be used in their work. But if they begin their “experimenting” with high school sports because they are less momentous than war, peace, climate change and politics, they may miss something crucial. Nothing may be more important to the students who play high school sports, and to their families, neighborhoods, and sometimes, the whole town. That next game is what the students train for, work toward, and dream about. Someday, almost all student athletes will go on to have jobs in front of screens, in office parks, at schools, in hospitals or on construction sites. They may suffer blows and setbacks. But the high school games they played and watched, as well as their hopes and cheers, will stay vivid in their memories.

I have a small idea. If newspapers will no longer send staff reporters to cover high school games, why not hire high school student journalists? News organizations can pay students an hourly wage to cover high school games. The young reporters might learn how to be fair to all sides, write vividly, and attract readers. That’s what some celebrities in sports did, and do.

And think of the great writers who were inspired by sports: Hemingway on fishing, Bernard Malamud and Marianne Moore on baseball, Chen Zhongshi on football, and CLR James on cricket, who said, “There can be raw pain and bleeding where so many thousands see the inevitable (不可避免的) ups and downs of only a game.” A good high school writer, unlike a robot, could tell readers not just the score, but the stories of the game.

4 . Having a personal trainer is one of the best ways to stay on track with your workouts, push your limits and try new things. But it often costs more than $100 a class, and getting to and from the gym can take up a lot of time.

Over the past ten years, fitness apps have been trying to copy the personal training experience exactly, and in recent years many have included artificial intelligence (AI) to create workouts. A growing number of products offer personalized works that match your abilities, goals and equipment you have, which usually cost around $100 a year.

However, some experts warn that while AI fitness apps are useful for many exercisers, they’re not the right fit for everyone.

AI fitness apps create personalized training programs using information from personal users and the experiences of other users.

In the future, these apps could collect even more information to give ever more personalized feedback (反馈), said futurist David Brin. But, he added, more information doesn’t always lead to better advice. “What you need to consider is whether the advice will actually be good for you, in the long run,” he said.

Furthermore, computers can learn a lot about different workout routines, but they can’t yet create the social interactions that make the training successful, said Nikola Banovic, professor of computer science and engineering at the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory of the University of Michigan.

The AI fitness apps we have now can’t offer encouragement or provide comfort on a bad day. “As humans, we need more than just the workouts that will get us to our goals,” Dr Banovic said. “We need to be encouraged — that’s something only a real trainer can do right now. It will be some time before AI training does this well.”

1. What is the main advantage of AI fitness apps over personal trainers?

A．Requiring less exercise equipment.

B．Offering coaching services at a lower price,

C．Creating more personalized training plans.

D．Providing a better personal training experience.

2. What may David Brin agree with?

A．Users should work harder to protect their personal information.

B．AI fitness apps should find more tools for collecting information.

C．Users should be careful with the advice offered by AI fitness apps.

D．AI fitness apps should be improved to meet the needs of every user.

3. What should future AI fitness apps focus on?

A．Setting achievable goals.

B．Adding live chat services.

C．Learning new workout routines.

D．Developing useful interactions.

4. What can be a suitable title for the text?

A．How do AI fitness apps change the way you exercise?

B．Would an AI trainer be better than a real trainer?

C．Can AI trainers take the place of the real one?

D．How do experts feel about an AI trainer?

ChatGPT was launched less than half a year ago, shocking though it may seem. It’s hard     1     (scroll) through a news website and not see “ChatGPT” somewhere. Despite its     2     (popular), remarkably few people can tell you what the “GPT” in ChatGPT stands for off the top of their heads : it’s “Generative Pre-trained Transformer.”

More technically    3     (speak), it’s a large language model-based chatbot, meaning it’s fed unbelievable amounts of text-based data —such as books, news articles, and web pages , from which it learns how to construct sentences. It can     4     (use) for all kinds of purposes, such as writing computer code, serving     5     a virtual assistant chatbot, content generation, and even writing news articles.

Although ChatGPT brings much convenience to our life, there     6     (be) some fears that ChatGpt is becoming too intelligent. It is causing citizens and business leaders to be much     7     (cautious) about its applications and the threat     8     it may pose to jobs, industries and our current way of life than they were about its non-generative predecessor.

In     9     word, ChatGPT is just a powerful tool. It is our responsibility to train the tool to be effective, to integrate it into workflows and processes that we need to achieve our goals     10     to consider the needs of our customers.

6 . Austrian painter Gustav Klimt created some of his best-known masterpieces during the first decade of the 20th century.     1    . Nazi looting (纳粹 掠 夺) during World War II led to the destruction of many prized Klimt works, including the Faculty Paintings: three enormous scenes titled Philosophy, Medicine and Jurisprudence.

To study these paintings, art historians have long had to make do with black-and-white photographs. Thanks to machine learning, however, researchers have now restored (恢复) historical images of the Faculty Paintings to almost their original colors.     2    .

To create the images, Google Arts and Culture and the Belvedere Museum in Vienna developed a tool that selected information about Klimt’s use of color from different sources. The data set included newspaper descriptions of the Faculty Paintings and 80 full-color reproductions of Klimt paintings from the same period.     3    .

Google engineer Emil Wallner spent nearly six months coding the AI algorithm (编写人工智能算法) to create color predictions.    4    . For example, one might expect the starry sky featured in Klimt’s Philosophy to be blue, but the AI-colored version tends to be a little green, based partly on newspaper accounts that describe the painting’s greenish color.

“    5    ,” says Franz Smola, who worked on the restoration with Wallner. “We were able to color Klimt’s works even in places about which we had no knowledge.”

Art lovers can explore these colorful recreations online. The restored paintings are paired with an online exhibition, “Klimt vs. Klimt: The Man of Contradictions”, which explores the painter’s life and works.

A．It was stored with other precious artworks

B．But not all of Klimt’s paintings survive today

C．It also included 1 million pictures of the real world

D．That suggests that these three Klimt paintings were not saved

E．He says some parts of the final paintings surprised the researchers

F．With machine learning, we can predict that Klimt used certain colors

G．That offers viewers a sense of what Klimt’s works looked like before their destruction

ChatGPT, a powerful AI chatbot tool, has swept the world in the past months. While it has been dominating social media with its frighteningly good essays, ChatGPT has also caused both excitement and worries in education.

According to a US survey of more than 1,000 students, over 89 percent of them had used ChatGPT to help with a homework task. Some students even got high scores thanks to papers written by ChatGPT.

Some universities and schools have banned the use of ChatGPT, such as public schools in New York City, CNN reported. The move comes out of growing concerns that the tool could make it easier for students to cheat on schoolwork and be used to spread inaccurate (不精确的) information. “While the tool may be able to provide quick and easy answers to questions, it does not build critical-thinking and problem-solving skills, which are essential for academic (学术的) and lifelong success,” Jenna Lyle, said in a statement.

Apart from strict bans, teachers are redesigning their courses in an attempt to block the use of ChatGPT. Some college professors in the US are now including more oral exams and handwritten papers instead of typed ones, The New York Times reported.

However, not all educators are saying “no” to ChatGPT. Some Canadian universities are not planning on banning the tool. Instead, they are working on policies (政策) about its proper usage, for both students and lecturers.

Bhaskar Vira, pro-vice-chancellor for education at University of Cambridge in the UK, said that bans on AI software like ChatGPT are not sensible. “I’m of the opinion that we have to recognise that AI is a tool people will use but then adapt our learning, teaching and examination processes so that we can continue to have integrity (诚信) while recognizing the use of the tool,” he told Varsity, the school newspaper of the university.

Vira’s opinion on ChatGPT is shared by Peter van der Putten, assistant professor at Leiden University in the Netherlands. “It’s there, just like Google is there. You can write it into your policies for stopping cheating but it’s a reality that the tool exists,” he told Sky News.
