（2022春·湖南衡阳·高一统考期中）Athletes in the Olympic Villages—in the Beijing, Yanqing and Zhangjiakou zones—have been sharing their moments with the panda in photos and videos, while Bing Dwen Dwen fans have patiently waited to buy products from licensed stores and through official online channels.
The enthusiasm for the mascot (吉祥物) products has led to a shortage of products, with many netizens complaining that it’s too difficult to get a Bing Dwen Dwen doll.
Zhang Zhicheng, a spokesman for the National Intellectual Property Administration, said the difficulty buyers face in getting the mascot products shows the country’s stronger and more comprehensive protection of Olympic symbols. “As the mascot has Olympic symbol protection, it also receives patent (专利), trademark and copyright protection,” Zhang said at a news conference organized by the 2022 Beijing Media Center on Monday.
Comprehensive IPR protection (全方位的知识产权保护) guarantees the rights and interests of IPR owners, and also promotes the spread of Olympic culture, he said. “Comprehensive IPR protection is our way of keeping Olympic rules. It’s also symbolic of our respect for every athlete, and encouragement for technological innovators at this sports event,” he said
Sun Lei, an IPR lawyer at Yuanhe Partners in Beijing, said that difficulty in buying a Bing Dwen Dwen doll reflects enhanced awareness of the importance of protecting Olympic symbols, adding that thanks should go to the country’s early warnings on the issue and other measures.
After Bing Dwen Dwen was unveiled in 2019, the Beijing Organizing Committee for the 2022 Olympics issued a notice on the protection of the mascot. It warned that no individual or department could use the image or name of the mascot for private reasons. It added that using the image in anything other than the official designs was also banned.
4．According to Zhang Zhicheng, it’s too difficult to get a Bing Dwen Dwen doll because of________.
A．a shortage of workers B．the enthusiasm for the Olympic Games
C．a lack of online channels D．China's protection of Olympic symbols
5．What's the main idea of paragraph 4?
A．the aims of Comprehensive IPR protection B．the ways to protect Olympic mascots
C．the rights and interests of IPR owners D．the reasons for protecting Olympic symbols
6．According to the last paragraph, people were warned________.
A．to create more official designs B．to improve the quality of the mascot
C．not to use the image for private reasons D．not to buy too many mascots
7．Where is this text most likely from?
A．A biography. B．A novel. C．A newspaper. D．A diary.

（2023·江苏南京·高一校联考期中）What if computers could replace patients? If virtual (虚拟的) humans could have replaced real people in some stages of a drug trial, it could have sped up development of a preventive tool and slowed down the spread of viruses. Similarly, potential drugs that weren’t likely to work could have been identified early, cutting trial costs and avoiding testing poor drug candidates on living volunteers. These are some of the benefits of “in silico medicine”, which is also known as “computational medicine”.
Powerful computers get to work based on the data according to some rules, producing a virtual organ (器官) that looks and behaves like the real thing. With virtual organs, the modeling begins by feeding data into a complex mathematical model of the mechanisms.
In silico clinical trials are already underway to an extent. For the foreseeable future, real patients will be needed in late-stage studies, but in silico trials will make it possible to conduct quick and inexpensive first assessments of safety and efficiency, hugely reducing the number of live human subjects required for experimentation.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), for instance, is using computer simulations (模拟) in place of human trials for evaluating new technology systems. The agency has also published guidance for designing trials of drugs and devices that include virtual patients.
Beyond speeding results and reducing the risks of clinical trials, in silico medicine can be used in place of risky interventions (干预) that are required for analyzing or planning treatment of certain medical conditions. For example, HeartFlow Analysis, a cloud-based service approved by the FDA, enables doctors to identify heart disease based on CT images of a patient’s heart. The HeartFlow system has used these images to construct a dynamic model of the blood running through the heart, thus identifying abnormal conditions and their severity. Without this technology, doctors would need to cut into the body to perform an angiogram (血管造影) to decide whether and how to intervene. Experimenting on digital models of individual patients can also help personalize treatment for any number of conditions.
8．What is the key factor of “in silico medicine”?
A．Trial costs. B．Virtual organs.
C．Potential drugs. D．Living volunteers.
9．What can we know about “in silico medicine”?
A．It is mainly used to try drugs. B．It is lacking in practical value.
C．It frees patients from clinical trials. D．It provides safety and reduces costs.
10．What can be inferred about HeartFlow Analysis?
A．It is being applied to FDA for use. B．It has given doctors practical help.
C．It models CT images of living patients. D．It functions on the basis of angiograms.
11．What is the main idea of the text?
A．Virtual medical science is developing rapidly.
B．Clinical trials of new drugs have been sped up.
C．Virtual patients make clinical trials fast and reliable.
D．Computers will replace human doctors in the future.

In Old Town Alexandria, Virginia, you can find Jamey Turner playing an unusual musical instrument, the glass harp（竖琴）. A glass harp is made up of different sized drinking glasses, each filled with water.
Turner makes music by running his fingers over the tops of the glasses. By doing so, each glass makes a different musical sound. Visitors to Alexandria like what they see and hear. They thank Turner by leaving a dollar or more in his box for donations. Jamey Turner is 78 years old. Turner became interested in playing the glass harp at the age of six, when he heard his father playing with a glass of water at the dinner table. He has been playing it for 50 years.
Today Turner puts together his instrument by placing 60 different glasses on a wooden soundboard. He holds the glasses in place with rubber bands, which keeps them from breaking. He then adds different amounts of water to each one to create different musical notes. Adding or taking away just a little water will change the sound. Adding water to a glass will make a lower sound. The smaller bowls of water produce a higher sound, while the larger ones produce a lower, deeper sound.
Turner always uses low-priced glass because it sounds better than costly crystal(水晶) and he has more control over the sound. Before buying new glasses, he will test them in stores. He decides if they produce the right sound by rubbing his finger over the top of them.
The glass harp was popular 300 years ago when composers like Wolfgang Mozart wrote music for the instrument. There have been about 400 pieces of music written just for the glass harp. But Turner plays all kinds of music, even popular music from China. Few people play the glass harp these days, but Turner says he sees videos of people experimenting with the instrument on YouTube. He hopes the next generation will continue making its music.
12．What do visitors think of Jamey Turner's performance?
A．Boring. B．Attractive. C．Special. D．Common.
13．How can Jamey Turner change the sounds of the glasses?
A．By beating the glasses in different parts. B．By placing the glasses on a wooden board.
C．By adding or reducing water in the glasses. D．By holding different glasses with rubber bands.
14．What may be Jamey Turner's real worry about the glass harp?
A．Little music is written for the instrument.
B．People are trying to play the instrument online.
C．Few people are playing the instrument these days.
D．The instrument cannot produce some beautiful sounds.
15．What is the best title for this text?
A．Making Music by Playing Glasses B．Special Sounds from Glasses
C．Devotion to Playing Glasses for Fun D．Fingers over the Tops of the Glasses
