①What will the world of the future be like? There are plenty of people who are happy to give their opinion of what we will be doing in 2050. Here are two predictions about the world of tomorrow.
②When we dream about the future, many like to think of owning a personal flying car. The advantages are obvious. This technology would allow total freedom of movement. We could fly at 480 km per hour, avoiding traffic lights and busy roads. However, there is likely to be an air traffic jam. Another big problem is mechanical failure(机械故障). What will happen if the cars stop working? These are problems we must consider if flying cars become a reality.
③Three-dimensional(3D) printing is another new technology with possibilities. 3D printers are used to build an object with liquid(液态的)plastic. They build the object layer(层) by layer until it is complete. Car companies already use 3D printers to make life-size models of car parts, and medical companies use the technology to make man-made body parts. As we move into the future, 3D printing will revolutionise(革新) the way we make products and the way we treat sick people. The disadvantage is that such equipment will be extremely expensive.
④So in the future, we might be able to fly to work or print out new shoes. Although there are some problems to solve before this will be possible, we can certainly dream of a world where technology makes life easier and safer for millions of people.

This year, at Beijing New Oriental Foreign Language School at Yangzhou, there have been big changes both for students and teachers. These changes happened because AI tools were used.
By using AI to create personalised exercises and exams, teachers at the school can adjust(调整) their teaching methods to suit each student's needs and abilities.
After students finish studying a unit, teachers use AI to pick different questions from an online database(数据库) that includes all kinds of materials. This helps to create a customised(定制的) set of exercises for the unit, helping students strengthen their knowledge. These exercises are then printed on paper.
Students answer the exercise questions on answer sheets. Teachers collect these sheets and scan them into an AI system for grading. Then theAI creates numbers and graphics(图形) that help teachers understand each student's performance as well as how the whole class is doing overall.
"Our teacher no longer explains all the questions one by one. Instead, she looks at the common mistakes and provides one-on-one help for every one of us, " said Wang Dinghan.
What's more, students can get special mistake log(日志) or homework created by AI depending on their performance in exams they have taken.
"The homework is all about what I got wrong before, so I don't need to practise what I already understand over and over again, " said Wang.
"I used to have a notebook copying my mistakes so that I can study them, " said Yu Zifu. "But now, AI has done this for me!"
(1)、What is the main purpose of using AI in the school according to the passage?A、To make teaching more enjoyable for teachers. B、To make students' exercise books lighter. C、To improve learning with personalised education. D、To reduce the amount of homework for students.(2)、What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?A、What challenges teachers met when using AI. B、Why teachers built an online database for students. C、How AI helps teachers create customised exercises for students. D、How teachers organised after-class activities with AI.(3)、What benefit(优势) do students like Wang Dinghan find in the AI-assisted system?A、Teachers can explain questions more carefully. B、Teachers can offer one-on-one help to students. C、Students can practise as many times as they need. D、Students can copy their mistakes more clearly.(4)、What is the main idea of the passage?A、AI creates a learning trend(趋势). B、AI frees students from homework. C、AI helps students learn better. D、AI changes the teacher-student relationship. -

How do blind people get around safely? Some people use special guide dogs, A well-trained dog knows how to help its owner cross busy streets and get from place to place. Some people use long white canes(手杖) to help them get around.
Guide dogs and' canes are helpful, but there must be a better way for blind people to get around, A scientist in England thought so. His name isWaters and he studies bats(蝙蝠). He knows that bats are able to fly in the dark. Besides, he knows that bats move by using sounds to"see". Dr Waters wondered if people could do something similar.
Bats make sounds as they fly. These sounds travel in waves(波) in the air. When the waves hit an object such as a tree or house, they bounce(反弹)back. The waves travel back to the bat's ears. A bat learns the location and shape of objects around it.
Dr Waters talked to other scientists, including Withington from America and Hoyle from Germany. They worked together and invented a new kind of cane. They called it a"bat cane" because their idea started with bats. The new cane has a computer in the handle(手柄).▲The sound waves hit objects and echo(发出回声) back. This causes the handle to make sounds which humans can hear.
With a little training, a person using the cane can easily tell where objects are and can"see" with sound!
