25、ny Saucony to design a shoe for sale across the country,it came as quite a surprise.This is so incredible.I got to use my art and creativity for something new that Id never thought Id be able to design,Luna said.She is one of six patients from Boston Childrens Hospital(BCH)who have partnered with Sa

26、ucony to design their own shoe to launch the Shoes with Soul campaign.Rather than just a donation,we wanted to create an experience and a moment that would not only raise money,but also awareness to highlight all the amazing work thats being done at BCH,says Chris,Sauconys vice president.Specificall

27、y,we wanted to give some of the BCH kids an opportunity to share their story and their talents with the world.Lunas design is fashion.On the tongue,they digitalized one of my drawings,and then on bottom its a really bright pink color,and on the inside,the sole of the shoe is actually another drawing

28、 I did of a sunset,she said.Thinking about kids everywhere around the world wearing my shoe is amazing.It blows my mind.The income from the shoe sales will benefit the Boston Childrens Hospital Cardiac Fitness Program,which encourages kids to find your possible through personalized exercise programs

29、 tailored for each individual patients heart condition.It feels really good to help people and its really something I can relate to,says Luna.The advice I would give a kid or someone like me is never give up.There are a lot of kids out there with your condition and youre not alone.36.What can we lea

32、a campaign with kid patients.CPractice makes perfect is a very popular expression.However,can we take this saying literally?Many scientific studies have sought to either prove or disprove this idea.One popular theory is that if a person practises for at least 10,000 hours,they will reach perfection,

33、or become an expert in their field.This theory was made famous by Malcolm Gladwell in his 2008 best-selling book,Outliers:The Story of Success.He mentioned the music group The Beatles and Microsoft co-creator Bill Gates.Although they all seemed to have lots of natural talent,they also clearly put in

34、 over 10,000 hours of practice before they became successful.Gladwells work was largely based on research done by Anders Ericsson,who argued that Gladwell misinterpreted his research.Firstly,Ericsson stated that 10,000 hours was an average figure.Some people needed far fewer than 10,000 hours,and ot

35、hers many more.More importantly,Ericsson said that just practising a lot was not enough;the type and quality of practice was also essential.He went on to explain the importance of deliberate practice,which is when a person practises a specific part of a skill in depth rather than practising a skill

36、as a whole.A more recent study from Princeton University stated that practice only accounted for up to 26%of reaching an expert level.Many people say that natural talent has a large influence on becoming an expert.Another natural factor is physical superiority,which is especially evident in sports.I

37、Q,personality,attitude,and starting age are decisive,too.But becoming an expert doesnt equal instant success,which also relies on social and environmental factors.In conclusion,practice may not make perfect,but deliberate practice has been shown to lead to significant improvement.Based on Ericssons

38、research,here are some tips on how to practise effectively:be motivated;make specific and realistic goals;work outside your comfort 高二英语 共 13 页 第 7 页 zone;be consistent and persistent;and get plenty of rest!For those wanting to become an expert in something,remember that being motivated is keyenjoy

39、what you do and follow your passions.40.How did Gladwell support his idea?A.By listing numbers.B.By using examples.C.By interviewing famous people.D.By mentioning other researchers.41.Which of the following may Ericsson disagree with?A.Practice alone is far from enough.B.About 10,000 hours of practi

40、ce leads to success.C.Practice hours vary from person to person.D.Deliberate practice is much more effective.42.What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about?A.The role of practice.B.Factors in creating experts.C.The importance of natural talent.D.Warnings for experts.43.What is the authors attitude to th

41、e idea Practice makes perfect?A.Favorable.B.Intolerant.C.Doubtful.D.Objective.DIt all started when I typed a perfectly reasonable prompt(提示词)into one of several apps on the market that can create an image based on text.Skull space laser dinosaur starship explosion,I wrote.The app processed for a few

42、 seconds,and returned four images,one of which was strangely accurate:a dinosaur-looking skull screamed out of an empty space,trailing fire.It looked like an illustration from the art magazine,and perhaps art from the magazine influenced its creation.Text-to-image AIs identify images by looking at t

43、he text that people have used to describe those pictures online.When the app got my prompt,it studied images that random people had described as dinosaur or laser and so on,then used what is called a diffusion model(扩散模型)to add a bunch of random chaos to those pictures.Once they were suitably comple

44、ted,it upscaled them,removing noise and sharpening focus.Its work is so good that an artist using it recently won first place for digital images at the Colorado State Fair.But there are major ethical(道德的)issues raised by the success of such AIs.The biggest has to do with those training data sets.Rep

45、orters recently discovered that the data set used by Text-to-image AIs contained images of violence.Some companies are working on ways to prevent the public from seeing images based on offensive and illegal pictures in the data set.A representative of the companies also noted that the images in its

46、data set are already available in the public internet on publicly available websites.高二英语 共 13 页 第 8 页 But even if this problem is fixed,there is still the question of all the other pictures online that are being transformed into AI-generated masterpieces.As many artists have pointed out,their works

47、 are being used without payment.The image-generating algorithm(算法)creates illustrations and even movies by using data sets stocked with art stolen from artists who post their works online.Some AI researchers argue that their algorithms arent stealing from artists so much as learning from them,just a

48、s human artists learn from each other.But a more ethical approach would be for companies to acknowledge their debt to artists and create a model of voluntary collective licensing,much like what radio stations first did in radios early days.Back then,musicians created groups like BMI to collectively

49、license their music to radio stationsthen BMI would pay artists based on how often their songs were played.Perhaps artists and art institutions today could form a collecting society that would allow companies to license their artwork for data sets.To create ethical AI systems,we need to acknowledge

50、the people whose work makes those systems so magical.We cant simply snarf up every image onlinewe need humans to manage those data sets and we need to pay them to do it.44.What can we learn about Text-to-image AIs from the first two paragraphs?A.They are developed to process pictures.B.They are used

51、 to describe online pictures.C.They use a diffusion model to combine pictures.D.They create their works based on online pictures.45.One of the issues raised by the success of Text-to-image AIs is _.A.the influence upon art creationB.the availability of online picturesC.the neglect of the artists cop

52、yrightD.the prospect of artists being replaced46.Why did the author mention BMI in Paragraph 5?A.To introduce the role that BMI played in AI history.B.To present a way to regulate the use of online pictures.C.To prove the necessity of licensing music to radio stations.D.To demonstrate the urgency of

53、 forming a collecting society.47.What can we infer from the passage?A.It is not practical to improve the image-generating algorithm.B.The function of Text-to-image Als shouldnt be underestimated.C.Human efforts should be valued in the application of Text-to-image Als.D.Companies should be held respo

54、nsible for the illegal pictures on public websites.高二英语 共 13 页 第 9 页 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项。False Memories or Parallel(平行的)Realities?Here is a common situation:Youre talking with someone about an event,only to discover that you both remember things qui

55、te differently.Usually,youd put it down to a poor memory,but what if it wasnt just one person who remembered things differently?What if it was millions?In fact,this isnt a what if situation.Its known as the Mandela Effect,and it was first noticed in 2009 by paranormal researcher Fiona Broome.Broome

56、was chatting with people about the South African activist Nelson Mandela,and she commented how sad it was that he had died in prison in the 1980s.48._ Actually,hed been released in 1990,become president of South Africa,and died in 2013.Broome was so shocked at this that she started an investigation.

57、49._ People have memories of movies that never existed,and famous words that were never spoken.There is even a group who clearly recall seeing maps showing that New Zealand was northeast of Australia(its southeast).So what in the world is going on?50._ In each reality,history is shaped by different

58、events,and the Mandela Effect occurs when some of us shift from one reality to another.Therefore,those who remember Nelson Mandela dying in the 1980s arent wrong.Theyre just remembering events from their original reality.More likely,however,is that the Mandela Effect has to do with how our brains st

59、ore information.51._ Many people remember Pikachus tail having a black tip on the end of it,when in fact it was always yellow.Aha!you cry.Parallel realities!Probably not.Consider instead that people often ignore unfamiliar details and transform information to make it more understandable.In the Pikac

60、hu example,his tail may not have a black tip,but his ears certainly do.Thus,both his ears and tail are misremembered as having black tips.52._All things considered,if youre stuck arguing win someone about whose version of events is correct,it may indeed be easier to agree that neither of you is wron

61、g.You just come from different realities.A.Before we explain lets look at an example.B.It turns out she wasnt the only one whod experienced this.C.If several people make these memory errors,the false memory gets stronger socially.D.The story of Nelson Mandela is not the only example of this type of

62、false group memory.E.Some claim the Mandela Effect happens because we live in one of many parallel realities.F.Many in her group agreed,while others mentioned that Nelson Mandela had not died in prison.G.As more incidents of the Mandela effect continue to occur,perhaps more research into the origins
