五、阅读下面几段文章，选择最佳答案。（每题 2 分，共 10 题。）
18. Sora, the new AI, surprises the world with very realistic videos
Open AI’s new model, Sora, is surprising the world. AI doesn’t just make text and pictures for us anymore now, it can turn a sentence into a video.
Whether on a large TV or a small smartphone, Sora’s videos are always easy to watch and enjoy. Sora can also make scenes（场景）with lots of people doing different things with clear details（细节）. It’s also learning how things should look in real life.
Sora is a good learner. It looks at many videos and learns from them by breaking them into very small bits（片段）. It uses these bits to make a new video. The new video is gray（灰色的）at first and looks very messy. Then, Sora fixes the video until it looks fine. ChatGPT also helps along with the way. It makes our prompts（提示语）easier to understand.
OpenAI is still testing Sora, so it is far from perfect. When it comes to complex images
（复杂图像）, Sora can’t make everything look real. One example is a video where a grandma blows out a birthday candle, but the flame（火焰）stays still.

1. What is one of the key strengths of Sora in creating videos?
A. Generating videos that are difficult to watch.
B. Producing scenes with blurry details.
C. Creating videos that are easy to watch and enjoy.
D. Using outdated technology for video production.

2. How does Sora learn to create videos?
A. By reading textbooks on videos production.
B. By studying and analyzing existing videos.
C. By attending video-making workshops.
D. By avoiding any form of learning.

3. What is the initial appearance of the videos created by Sora?
A. Colourful and visually appealing. B. Black and white with clear details.
C. Gray and messy. D. Vibrant and dynamic.

4. Which “still” has the same meaning with the underlined one in the last paragraph?
A. I wrote to them last month and I’m still waiting for a reply.
B. The next day was warmer still.
C. The wind stilled.
D. Keep still while I brush your hair.

19. Should school have a plant-based meal day?
In the UK, millions more school meals are plant-based than they were even a few years ago. In 2022, research found that over six months, more than five million school meals in the UK were plant-based or meat-free.
School meals in the UK have to follow certain rules to make sure they are nutritious (healthy and balanced).
According to new research, more than 16% of the UK population are eating a meat-free diet in 2024. That is around 8.6 million people.
Many school canteens across the UK are offering more plant-based options. This month, schools in the London borough（行政区）of Waltham Forest were said to have the best and most environmentally friendly lunch menus in the country. They are offering a range of healthy, plant-based meals for pupils in their 43 schools, including things like smoky bean and vegetable jambalaya（什锦饭）and jackfruit（菠萝蜜）pasta bake.
Waltham Forest Catering, which provides the meals for the schools, says pupils love the dishes. Should other schools follow their example? Some people argue that eating less meat is important for health and environmental reasons, but others say people should be free to choose. What do you think? Should schools have plant-based meal days?
The followings are six reasons for or against the proposal :
①Cutting down on some types of meat and eating more fruit and vegetables is good for the planet and gives people a health boost too.
②If a food is plant-based it doesn’t automatically mean it is going to be healthy or tasty.
③A plant-based meal day at school is an easy way for students to try something new for lunch.
④Offering plant-based food to young people shapes their eating habits and influences their parents’ diets and shopping as well.
⑤Schools could serve more responsibly-produced meat and dairy, along with whole grains and fresh fruit and vegetables.
⑥Students should get to choose whether or not they want to eat a plant-base
