山东省济南市历城区2020年九年级英语学业水平质量检测模拟试卷(一)
Huang Zhidong's room is like a small museum. The treasures there are not things he has collected, but miniature (微型的) models dragon heads that he has made himself over the years.
The 16-yerar-old boy, who studies at the Dongguan Science&Technology School, is a big fan of making miniature models of dragon heads. This is a traditional form of art in his hometown of Guangdong. The models can be as small as a fist (拳头).
Huang was interested in dragon heads at a young age, as dragon boat races were often held in his hometown. He noticed that every dragon head at the front of the dragon boats has its special color and expression. When he was in kindergarten, he drew pictures of dragon heads. In the fifth grade, he could sculpt (雕刻) them out of wood.
However, the process was more difficult than he thought it would be. "Draw a picture, print it on the wood, sculpt, polish, paint, color,... it includes almost 10 steps," Huang said. He sometimes spends seven hours a day sculpting of the models of dragon heads.
Huang has even turned his hobby into the business. He often shares his works on Wechat. At the age of 13, Huang received his first order for four models of dragon heads after posting pictures online. It took him two weeks to finish the four models. The praise he got from his customer encouraged him to make more models. He has got many more orders since then.
He is now trying to improve his skills. He is sculpting with different kinds of wood and studying the works of master sculptors.
ChatGPT is back in the headlines! OpenAI, the company behind the popular chatbot, has now introduced a powerful new language: GPT-4.
Several months ago, GPT-4 showed the world how smarter it is than the previous (先前的) GPT-3.5. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}For example, if you show a picture of a phone using the wrong charger, GPT-4 can tell why the picture looks strange or funny.
But GPT-4's developments are far more than that. The new language model can code (用代码编写) classic games in only a few minutes, and it also can produce the code and layouts (布局) for a website with a hand-made drawing. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} According to some scientists, GPT-4 did really well on a school test, with a score in the top 10 percent of test takers. {#blank#}3{#/blank#}
GPT-4 will also be widely used in other apps and services. For example, the language learning app Duolingo plans to use GPT-4 in their Duolingo Max Function. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}Another app, Be My Eyes, will have a digital assistant to help blind people understand the world around them.
{#blank#}5{#/blank#}GPT4 still can't get completely correct answers sometimes, especially with newer information after September 2021. GPT-4 also sometimes "hallucinates (产生幻觉)", it means that GPT-4 will think the wrong information is true.
A. GPT-4 is very popular to young people. B. App users can learn language by talking with AI. C. But GPT-3.5 only got a score in the bottom 10 percent. D. There are still some problems with GPT-4, however. E. You don't need to pay anything when you use GPT-4. F. One of its advantages is that it can understand pictures. G. GPT-4 is also much better than the older GPT at taking tests. |
