18、 tired of the senseless killing, disobeyed their superiors and fraternized (打得火热) with “the enemy” along two-thirds of the Western Front. German troops held Christmas trees up out of the trenches (战壕) with signs, “Merry Christmas.” “You no shoot, we no shoot.” Thousands of troops streamed across a n

19、o-mans land filled with dead bodies. They sang Christmas carols, showed photographs of loved ones back home, shared rations, played football, and even roasted some pigs. Soldiers embraced men they had been trying to kill a few short hours before. They agreed to warn each other if the Generals (将军) f

20、orced them to fire their weapons, and to aim high. It shocked the high command on either side.

On Christmas Day, 1988, a story in the Boston Globe mentioned that a local FM radio host played “Christmas in the Trenches” several times and was surprised by the effect.

22、 in Boston on several FM stations. “Some callers even telephone the host deeply moved, sometimes in tears, asking, “What the hell did I just hear?” You can probably guess why the callers were in tears. The Christmas Truce story goes against most of what we have been taught about people. It gives us

23、a glimpse of the world as we wish it could be and says, “This really happened once.” It reminds us of those thoughts we keep hidden away, out of range of the TV and newspaper stories that tell us how trivial (微不足道的) and mean human life is.

27、 seniors stay mentally active and come with a host of additional health benefits. Thats because these digital connections can make retirees feel less lonely and isolated (孤立的). Social isolation has been associated with the risks for heart disease and the decline of recognition abilities in seniors a

28、nd the pandemic (疫情) increased the risks due to the need for seniors to stay home and isolate, according to a press release from the university.The researchers investigated the potential benefits of weekly virtual visits for a three-month period. The participants were people aged 65 and older who li

29、ved in Montreal. Half of the participants took part in online visits and a discussion afterwards, while the control group did not participate in any cultural events at all. The group who participated in the virtual visits showed improvements in their quality of life. “Our study showed that art-based

30、 activities may be an effective intervention (干预),” lead author Dr. Olivier Beauchet, a professor at the University of Montreal, said in the press release. “On a global scale, this participatory art-based activity could become a model that could be offered in museums and arts institutions worldwide

31、to promote active and healthy aging.”The proposal reflects approaches recommended by the World Health Organization to manage certain diseases, according to Beauchet. For instance, the WHO launched the Aging and Health Program in 2015 that included using community-based organizations to promote cultu

32、re as a key component (成分) of improving health. Traditionally, these sorts of preventive health activities have taken place in schools, community centers, and workplaces. “While these are suitable locations that reach a great number of people, there are additional organizations and sectors that coul

33、d become partners in public health research and practice development,” Beauchet said. “Museums are among such potential partners. They are aware of the needs of their communities and are consequently expanding the types of activities they offer.”28.How do seniors benefit from regular virtual visits

34、to museums？ A. They get survival skills. B. They raise interest in art. C. They improve quality of life. D.

36、Museum Trips Improve Seniors Well-being.C. Virtual Art-based Activities Bring People Together.D. Retired Individuals Pay More Visits to Museums.D Since American idol star Taryn Southern started composing music with AI in 2017, musicians all over the world have begun wondering about the implications

37、of AI and modern technology where music production is concerned. Using AI in the creation of music is perceived by some as a helpful tool and by others as almost “the beginning of the end”. In Taryns case, AI software enabled her to communicate melodies and chords that she didnt know how to put toge

38、ther herself. The end product was therefore a collaborative effort, rather than a piece entirely produced by technology. Taryns story has a distinctly positive feel that highlights the advantages of using AI in music production. It can serve as a source of inspiration, and as an ideal jumping-off po

39、int should a musician be hit with writers block (文思枯竭）. Contrary to seeing AI as a tool, some musicians consider it to be hugely detrimental to the music scene. At the moment, because such technology is still so young, the music its producing is not necessarily what we want to hear. In short, its no

40、t of great quality. Those who have produced their own music, or even fans of authentic, artistic music, will also argue that a computer could never imitate the work (and human touch) of a true musician. Music has been an integral part of the story of humans for ages; in fact, the first known piece o

41、f music is believed to be around 3,400 years old. Songs have long been used as a means of communicating messages and folk stories, covering everything from societal ethics to world history. Since many people see music as such an inherently human expression, it is often considered as too precious to

42、impart (赋予) to technology. The thought of a computer generating a “random” piece of music that hasnt been painstakingly created by an artist is almost seen a sacrilegious (亵渎神圣的). Regardless of which side of the argument you fall on, it seems likely that the use of AI in music production will only b

43、ecome more frequent. Our modern world is occupied with technological advancements. Instead of shying away from the idea of this bleak future, the best approach to take is one of optimism and curiosity. While there are always bound to be stubborn old-school musicians who refuse to use tech, music pro

44、ducers should consider AI as something to be embraced. AI music software is still very much in its infancy, but with more investors interested in the development and outcomes of such technology, and considering the rapid growth rate of other tech advances in recent years, its only a matter of time b

45、efore AI-produced music is seen as the new norm. 32. What does the word “detrimental” mean in paragraph three? A. normal B. influential C. harmful D. beneficial 33. Why are some musicians against the use of AI in creating music? A. Music produced with AI technology lacks humanness. B. Music created

46、with AI technology is easily imitated. C. It will decrease humans role in music composition. D. It will wear out young musicians creative inspiration 34. Why do many people think music is too precious to impart to AI technology? A. It cannot be created without pains.B. It is part of human life. C. I

47、t cannot be produced at random. D. It is human specific. 35. What does the author think of the future of AI music? A. It will continue to arouse the interest of music investors B. It has the prospect of becoming the norm in the future. C. It will be gradually accepted by old-school musicians. D. It

48、may eventually lose its freshness and appeal.第二节：（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。In todays fast-paced world, comfort and relaxation are keys to a happy daily life.
