20、cience to the public as much as I liked doing science. But research soon consumed most of my time. Gradually, I felt I was losing touch with the bigger picture of why science matters. To escape, I spent a weekend with some friends. They were excited to share stories about the latest books they’d
21、 consumed. But I couldn’t remember the last book I had read for fun. And I found myself mostly talking about my research. As I struggled to convey its broader relevance, I noticed the enthusiasm in my voice disappeared.“ Is my Ph. D. killing my love of science?” I thought. I knew I had been living
22、 in a scientific bubble(泡泡), but that bubble seemed to grow smaller and smaller as the weekend progressed. When I returned home. I resolved to read more for pleasure. I was recommended a science fiction book, so I started with that. It was like nothing I had ever read before. I was really into it
23、 I was blown away by the scientifically reasonable technologies and scenes. It was refreshing to think about science in a new way. I kept reading science fiction in the years after I finished my Ph. D. But I still hadn't gotten back to communicating science to the public. Then, one night
24、 I found myself in a conversation with my new colleagues about science fiction concepts. One invited me to speak at the pop culture lecture. When the day came. I felt nervous until I saw the eager attendees. After I finished, I was surrounded with enthusiastic audience. It suddenly occurred to me
25、 that this was my path back to science communication. Since then, I've given more than 20 talks, exploring concepts like genetic engineering and brain- machine interfaces. For young researchers. it's easy to slide into a scientific bubble. I'm glad science fiction gave me a way to break out. It n
26、ot only provided something fun to do in my spare time. It also helped me professionally, fueling my ability to communicate the wonders of science to the public. 2 4. What did the author realize at that weekend? A. He couldn't fit in a new environment. B. His memory was declining with time. C.
27、He lost passion for science communication. D. His knowledge was only a scientific bubble. 5. Why did the author like science fiction? 2 A. He wanted to find inspirations from it. C. It could explain many physical phenomena. 6. Which word can be used to describe the lecture? B. He wanted to put
28、 his knowledge to use. D. It offered him a new angle to look at science. 2 2 A. Successful. B. Unique. C. Classic. D. Common. 7. What is the aim of this passage? A. To introduce science fiction. B. To prove how important science is. C. To emphasize the author's love for science. D. To sh
29、ow how science fiction helped the author. C ChatGPT and other language- based large language mobiles ( LLMs) exhibit human- level performance on many natural- language tasks in English. The same is true of other widely used tongues. But Paiute is considered a“ no- resource language”, meaning the
30、re are no publicly available Paiute sentences translated into English on which to train a machine learning model. In a new paper, “ LLM- Assisted Rule- Based Machine Translation for Low/ No- Resource Languages”, Colem an and his professor Krishnamachari propose a machine translation approach call
31、ed LLM-RBMT( Rule- Based Machine Translation ) to help people learn no- resource languages. Their approach consists of a more“ old school” rule- based translator tools and a more advanced, natural language- based large language model. In their method, the LLM does not translate into or from Paiut
32、e. Instead, it helps to guide the rule- based translators, which rely on grammatical and vocabulary rules to translate between languages. The translation tool simplifies complex sentences and uses placeholders(占位符) for unknown words. While this process loses some meaning, it still produces unders
33、tandable and grammatically correct translations. This method, said Coleman, mirrors how language learners naturally speak by mixing known and unknown words, making it a practical tool for real- world use and the tool is smart enough to be able to do a lot of the translation on its own. Colem an
34、also built some digital tools related to language revitalization(复兴), named Kubishi or“ brain” in Paiute, including an online dictionary, and a sentence- builder and a translation system enabled by this research. Overall, the paper found that LLM's remarkable general- purpose language skills make
35、them a promising tool in helping revitalize critically endangered languages like Paiute. For his part, Colem an credits his tribe's(部落) members, past and present, for paving the path. “A lot of people in my tribe have been working for a long time on different language revitalization efforts, incl
36、uding classes, dictionaries and recordings, ” said Coleman.“ So though I am excited, I know it is one piece of a much larger puzzle.” Indeed, the paper points to many directions for future work, including adding more complex sentence structures to test the limits of the method outlined i
37、n his paper. 8. What can we learn about LLM-RBMT? 2 A. It is a traditional way to learn languages. B. It can translate Paiute into any other language. C. It is useful for learners of no- resource languages. D. It can simplify the process of learning English. 2 9. What is mainly talked about
38、in paragraph 3? A. The principle of the LLM. B. The advantages of the LLM. C. The grammar and vocabulary of Paiute. 0. What contribution did Coleman make? D. The efficiency of the translation tool. 3 A. He popularized Paiute all over the world. B. He helped to save endangered languages. C.
39、He recorded and preserved his tribe's history. D. He invented a smart language learning machine. 3 1. What can we infer about Coleman from paragraph 7? A. His tribe gave birth to many scientists. B. He was very grateful to his tribe's members. C. He would publicize something more puzzling. D.
40、 His tribe's members got involved in his work directly. D Plants are known to respond to seasonal changes by budding(发芽), leafing, and flowering. As climate change stands to shift these so- called phenological ( 物候的) stages in the life cycle of plants, access to data about phenological changes—
41、from many different locations and in different plants— can be used to draw conclusions about the actual consequences of climate change. However, conducting such analyses require a large amount of data and data collection of this scale would be unthinkable without the help of citizen scientists.
42、 Mobile apps like Flora Incognita could help solve this issue. The app allows users to identify unknown wild plants within a matter of seconds. When I take a picture of a plant with the app, the observation is recorded with the exact location as well as a time stamp,” says the first author Karin
43、 Mora, research fellow at Leipzig University. Although satellite data also records the phenology of entire ecosystems from above, they do not provide information about the processes taking place on the ground. The researchers developed an algorithm(算法) that draws on almost 10 million observations
44、 of nearly 3,000 plants species identified in Germany by users of Flora Incognita. The data show that each individual plant has its own cycle as to when it begins a flowering or growth phase. Furthermore, the scientists were able to show that group behaviour arises from the behaviour of individua
45、ls. From this, they were able to conclude ecological patterns and investigate how these change with the seasons. For example, ecosystems by rivers differ from those in the mountains, where phenological events start later. It is known that climate change is causing seasonal shifts— for example, sp
46、ring is arriving earlier and earlier. How this affects the relationship between plants and pollinating insects and therefore potentially also food security is still being subject to further research. The new algorithm can now be used to better analyse the effects of these changes on the plant wor

49、th cycle. C. Group behaviour affects individual behaviour. D. Ecological patterns in different areas are similar. 3 5. What is the passage mainly about? A. How citizen scientists use mobile apps to collect data. B. How climate change is affecting the growth of plants. C. How a plant app helps
