Night Sky TonightEcosystem Investigators

Tailless-designed airplane wings could serve the same function as the tail, as well as cutting the environmental cost of air travel. But there’s a catch. Those wings must twist(弯曲) in a very precise way that makes them hard to produce.

Ethan became fascinated by this kind of airplane design when he saw a video of NASA’s Prandtl-D aircraft gliding gracefully through the air without a tail. “I just thought that was really cool,” says Ethan. He wondered if he could find a simpler way to achieve the same tailless flight.

“Essentially what I did was just trial and error,” Ethan says. Using a computer model of an airplane wing, he adjusted the angle of twist along the wing until it could achieve tailless flight. Usually, such a wing requires a continuous distribution of wing twist. But he could achieve a similar effect with wings that had just a few sections of twist. “It’s super easy to make,” Ethan says.

In his garage, Ethan built model airplanes using rubber materials and packing tape totes this design. “Seeing the plane in the air was pretty cool,” Ethan says. “It just flew really, really well.”

Lighter, more efficient planes could open the door to other air travel innovations. “It’s been a long-term goal of mine to build a solar plane that can fly through the day powered by solar panels on its wings,” Ethan says. “It is absolutely possible for a really efficient plane.”

To other teens who have big engineering ideas to explore, Ethan always says, “Don’t ever give up.” Even when some machinery feels impossible to understand, it help store member that the world’s greatest inventors are only human, too. “Also, just make sure you love whatever you do,” Ethan adds. “That’ll make pursuing everything a lot easier.”24．What is one advantage of the tailless airplane?

A．It makes aircraft design easier.

B．It is environmentally friendly.

C．It reduces production costs.

D．It promotes flight stability.

25．What drew Ethan’s attention to the tailless airplane design?

A．The breakthrough in aircraft materials.

B．The flight of an aircraft in a video.

C．The prize for original design.

D．The desire for innovation.

on the AI as much as possible. After reviewing their 22 AI essays, I can tell you confidently that the technology just isn’t there. My students used free accessible text generators online and put in a lot of effort. But, if I had believed these were genuine student essays, the very best would have earned somewhere around a C or C-minus. Many of the essays had obvious red flags for AI generation: outdated facts, quotes from prior university presidents presented as current presidents, fictional professors and named student organizations that don’t exist. At the same time, the students reported that using AI required far more time than simply writing their essays the old-fashioned way would have.

There has been a fair amount written about the supposed impressiveness of AI-generated text. There are even several high-profile AI-written articles, essays or even scientific papers or screenplays that showcase this impressiveness. In many of these cases, the “authors” have access to higher-quality language models than most students are currently able to use. But, more importantly, the published examples are generally the polished form of professional writers and editors. In contrast, many of my students’ AI-generated essays showed the common problems of student writing—uncertainty about the appropriate writing style, issues with organization and transitions, and inconsistent paragraphing. Obviously, producing a quality essay with AI requires having high writing skill and revising skill to produce appropriate outputs.

My experimental so tells me that a good assignment sheet is the best defense against AI essays. If your assignment is “Describe the reasons for the U.S. Civil War”, you are more likely to get AI or downloaded essay submissions. My assignment was a challenge because it asked students to address local issues of concern. There are just not enough relevant examples in the data the AI text generators are drawing from.

It has been just over five years since computer scientists declared, “We should stop training radiologists(放射科医生) now. Deep learning is going to do better than radiologists.” Well, we’re still training radiologists, and there’s no indication that deep learning is going to replace human doctors anytime soon. In much the same way, I strongly suspect full-on robot writing will always and forever be “just around the corner”.

31．What can we learn about the students in the experiment?

A．Their writing efficiency was affected.

B．Their essays were better structured.

C．They preferred AI-written essays.D．They overcame AI’s weaknesses.

32．What does the author imply in Paragraph 3?

A．Online text generators are far from reliable.

B．Genuine student essays deserve higher marks.

C．Students need to have better mastery of technology.

D．Revising applications decide the quality of AI essays.

33．In the author’s opinion, what may discourage the use of AI text generators? A．Standard criteria B．Strict regulations.. C．Clear instructions.D．Unique writing tasks. 34．What is the main purpose of the passage?

A．To assess AI’s influence on students’ writing.

B．To discuss the threat of AI to the teaching of writing.

C．To appeal for the appropriate application of AI text generators.

D．To analyse the differences between genuine and Al-written essays.

五、阅读表达

阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题卡指定区域作答。

With society’s high pressures to achieve, it’s understandable that individuals prefer to hide their weak points—but doing so comes at a cost.

I learned that lesson when I participated in a hiking expedition. As a new hiker, I struggled. The trip was difficult to me even without needing to carry my heavy camping packs. I was slowed down, yet I refused to tell my teammates in hopes that I would seem perseverant. To my delight and surprise, one of the more active members requested that we stop for a break. I quickly realized I wasn’t the only one hiding my weaknesses after noticing the rest of the team’s apparent relief.

For many of us, authenticity, or behaving as one’s true self in daily life, is quite challenging. As social beings, we’ve learned to adapt and fit into our environment, making it challenging to display who we are at times. Yet, the advantage of authenticity is evident, driving its recent popularity among thought leaders. Authenticity even improved my hiking experience—the moment my group admitted to our shortcomings was when we started working better as a team. So, can being ourselves not only help us work better, but help those who workaround us?The truth is, it can.

Researchers have found that not only did authentic workers have higher work engagement and lower work tiredness, but their teammates had the same results, regardless of whether they were genuine themselves. The results suggest that the benefits of authenticity go beyond the individual, and spread to teammates as well. So, we can improve our teammates’ work behavior by merely being ourselves.

Why does authenticity boost our teammates? This is because authentic teammates do not prioritize protecting themselves at the cost of their work or relationships. Instead, they recognize the interests of both themselves and others when making decisions. This allows those they work with to feel safe while being themselves at work. By focusing lesson appearing hard-working in hopes to get ahead—and more on trying to be better all-around individuals—authentic teammates can make a great impact on their work environment. 40．How did the author feel when one team member asked for a rest during the hiking?

_______________________________________________________________

41．Why is it hard for people to display their true selves?

_______________________________________________________________ 42．Decide which part of the following statement is wrong. Underline it and explain why.

Authentic workers feel safe by being then selves at work, so authenticity boosts their teammates.

_______________________________________________________________

43．Apart from what is mentioned in the passage, what other benefit(s) do you think authenticity can bring to us?(In about 40 words)

Want to fare better? Value and regulate

your emotion.(这种关于情感的新观点可能与达尔文的观点不一致，但它确实支持了达尔文进

化论的一个基本结论：人类与非人类动物的区别并不像人们所认为的那样大。想过得更好吗？重视和调节你的情绪。)”可知，文章主要讲述的是情绪对人类所起的建设性作用。故选D。31．A 32．A 33．D 34．B

【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了人工智能引发的学术焦虑，作者通过实验告诉

我们，我们不需要过于担忧人工智能的使用。

31．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“As all this online depression was playing out, I asked my students, who were mostly majors in writing, to submit a 2,000-word proposal about a local

issue.I asked them to rely on the AI as much as possible.(随着网上的沮丧情绪愈演愈烈，我让

我的学生们(他们大多是写作专业的学生)就一个当地问题提交一份2000字的提案。我要求

他们尽可能地依赖AI。)”“At the same time, the students reported that using AI required far more time than simply writing their essays the old-fashioned way would have.(与此同时，学生们报告说，使用人工智能比简单地用传统方式写论文需要更多的时间。)”可知，作者要求学生尽可

能依赖AI来进行写作，而学生认为这样要比传统的写论文更费时间。由此判断，使用AI

技术使得学生的写作效率受到了影响。故选A。

32．推理判断题。根据文章第三段“But, more importantly, the published examples are generally the polished form of professional writers and editors. In contrast, many of my students’

AI-generated essays showed the common problems of student writing—uncertainty about the

appropriate writing style, issues with organization and transitions, and inconsistent paragraphing. Obviously, producing a quality essay with AI requires having high writing skill and revising skill

to produce appropriate outputs.(但是，更重要的是，发表的例子通常是专业作家和编辑的润色形式。相比之下，我的许多学生的人工智能论文显示了学生写作的常见问题——不确定合适的写作风格，组织和过渡的问题，以及不一致的分段。显然，用人工智能写一篇高质量的文章需要有很高的写作技巧和修改技巧来产生适当的输出。)”可以推断，用AI文本生成器想

写一篇高质量的文章是不太可能的。因此，作者认为AI文本生成器并不可靠。故选A。33．细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段“My experimental so tells me that a good assignment sheet is the best defense against AI essays. If your assignment is “Describe the reasons for the U.S. Civil War”, you are more likely to get AI or downloaded essay submissions. My assignment was a challenge because it asked students to address local issues of concern. There are just not enough relevant examples in the data the AI text generators are drawing from.(我的实验告诉我，一份好

的作业表是对抗人工智能论文的最佳方法。如果你的作业是“描述美国内战的原因”，你更有可能得到人工智能或下载的论文提交。我的作业是一个挑战，因为它要求学生解决当地关注的问题。AI文本生成器所使用的数据中没有足够的相关例子。)”可知，作者认为如果不想

让学生使用AI文本生成器，教师可以布置独特的写作任务，这样学生就无法使用AI文本

生成器。故选D。

34．推理判断题。根据文章第一段“September 2022 was apparently the month artificial intelligence essay anxiety boiled over in academia, after a user of an AI writing service claimed to be getting straight A’s with essays “written” using artificial intelligence.(2022年9月显然是人工智能论文

焦虑在学术界爆发的一个月，此前一名人工智能写作服务的用户声称，用人工智能“写”的论文得到了全A。大多数教授对此表示担忧。)”以及最后一段“In much the same way, I strongly suspect full-on robot writing will always and forever be “just around the corner”(同样地，我强烈怀疑完全的机器人写作将永远是“指日可待”。)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要讨论了人工智能对于写作教学的威胁，作者认为人们无需太过于担忧机器人写作会代替学生写作。故选B。
