As lockdown starts to slowly lift, it's such a treat to be able to travel around the appealing coastline or book holidays in the UK again.
■Camber SandsThe impressive dunes(沙丘)system that makes Camber Sands the south coast's most Arabian-looking beach destination is fled with wonders. A number of “desert” films were shot here, including Cary On Follow That Camel.
Getting there: one hour 40 minutes by train from London St Pancras International to Rye, with a change at Ashford and a short bus ride to the beach; about two hours by car.

With a 30-year career under her belt as an accomplished head nurse and a veteran (老兵) of the 2003 SARS outbreak, Wang Yuying once again found herself wearing protective clothes for a mission to fight COVID-19 in Wuhan.
Wang Yuying arrived in Wuhan, Hubei Province, on the night of February 1, which was only seven hours after she received the call that she had been assigned to help at the center of the novel coronavirus.
Wang was one of the 135 medical workers dispatched by Peking University First Hospital to help treat seriously ill COVID-19 patients in Wuhan during the height of the outbreak. The day after arriving, Wang started to take care of the patients. Four days later, she was assigned as the head nurse of the medical team from Peking University First Hospital, and their team was asked to start taking care of patients independently within two days.
Despite the heavy work, Wang still paid attention to the psychological condition of both the nurses and patients. She could remember the birthdays of all 100 nurses and she would surprise them with a cake or a letter from family. She noticed the signs of worry in the patients. She would talk to them gently and comfort them to create a bond with them. Wang thinks attentive care and psychological nursing also played an important role in treating the COVID-19 patients.
Because of her devotion and focus on both the patients and nurses, her team finished their work with success on April 4. Wang Yuying has been a head nurse for three decades and is one year away from retirement. For her, the experience in Wuhan was also a chance to find and train those who will follow in her footsteps — the future head nurses.
4. What did Wang Yuying do in 2003?A.She served as a head nurse and a veteran. |
B.She participated in the fight against SARS. |
C.She reported the event of SARS. |
D.She protected the nurses from being infected. |
A.Command. | B.Treat. | C.Send. | D.Receive. |
A.About 10 months. | B.About 6 months. |
C.About 4 months. | D.About 2 months. |
In the Hollywood industry, most of the studios are using AI to make movies for various reasons such as getting the actors out of danger, replacing the actors indifferent scenes, forming appealing atmosphere to enhance(增强) the views, etc.
Directors and producers are using VFX (Visual effects), animations and AI to make a model that looks like the actor and replaces the actor's place. In particular, AI is used in scenes where actor shave to produce certain stunts(特技) to develop setups in the studio artificially. VFX is used to later change the internal studio backgrounds to a different place in the movie.
There are many movies with two characters of the same actor. When AI was not a part of the film, editors used different methods to show the two aspects of the same actor in one scene, but now AI is being used to form the second character of the same actor and is being performed to the viewers.
By a perfect combination of animation, VFX and AI, realistic models are being created. And the most fun part is the fictitious character can hold the face of the actor but the age, hairstyles, and clothing can be changed to create more enhanced looks according to the movie scene and story. With the help of AI, the directors are creating appealing scenes to enhance the thrill and excitement. In Jurassic Park, no dinosaurs were running but with the help of AI and visual effects, we could enjoy the scenes and the atmospheres.
The directors and the producers direct to form a green screen including the obstacles and those green screens get replaced with the views that are made from AI and VFX, and the actors make the scenes alive and deliver the most suitable action-packed movie scenes. This method also enhances the viewers' experience, which makes the movie a blockbuster(大片).
7. What does the author intend to tell us in paragraph 1?A.How AI helps actors. |
B.What AI brings to movies. |
C.Why AI is applied to movies. |
D.Where AI is made full use of. |
A.AI can be used as an editor. |
B.Editors consider AI irreplaceable. |
C.Editors used many methods to replace AI. |
D.AI makes what used to be complex scenes easier. |
A.Supportive. | B.Sceptical. |
C.Unconcerned. | D.Enthusiastic. |
A.What AI Brings Out Hollywood Movies |
B.Why AI Is Applied to Hollywood Movies |
C.Which Hollywood Movies Make Much Use of AI |
D.How AI Is Being Applied to Hollywood Movies |
Five Easy Ways to Feel Your Best
During the busiest days, people often withstand great stress. Stress is no good for your mind or your body. Studies have found that your chance of a heart attack increases 9.5 times after an intense event. Anxious feelings can also lead to sore skin.
One: Make Time for Meditation (冥想).
You don’t need to meditate for hours to reap the benefits — just ten minutes a day can make a difference. The key is to find quiet moments you can commit to. Whether you opt (选择) for the moment in the morning or just before bed, you’ll feel calmer in no time.
Two:
Essential oils smell amazing, and they’ve also been associated with reduced stress levels and may even be able to kill the flu virus. Whether you prefer peppermint or lavender, fifteen minutes is a great way to keep your mood on the up and up.
Three: Listen to Music.
Four: Take a Walk.
Plenty of research has shown how bad sitting all day can be for your productivity and your overall health, but it also turns out a lunchtime stroll may be even more beneficial than it’s thought previously.
Five: Take Vitamins.
When we are under great pressure, we tend to desire sugary and fatty foods. Stocking up on betterforyou snacks is one way to avoid diet problems.
