2.For Lydia Koniordou,a famous Greek actress and former Greek minister of culture and sports,cultural preservation is essential to help people know who they are and learn what they should do in the future.
"The taller you want to grow,the deeper your roots must be.Our cultural past is our roots.If we don't have really strong roots and depth in our perception (認識) of our identity,we cannot grow.Without these roots,we will be torn out very easily with the currents," she told the journalist in a recent interview,adding cultural heritage is in fact very much alive and relevant today.
Speaking of her teaching experience overseas,Koniordou said she was very much impressed by her Chinese students when she gave seminars on ancient Greek tragedy at the Shanghai Theatre Academy in 2014-15.When the students worked on Alcestis,an Athenian tragedy by ancient Greek playwright Euripides,they thoroughly researched the costumes they would be wearing,the set,and the lights,among others,she recalled. "I feel they evolved and were transformed by this experience as I was transformed.They did not just play a role,but created a whole world and that is why the production had so much interest also for the spectators," she said.
Koniordou participated in the production of Euripides 'Electra' together with Greek director Kostas Tsianos. "Tsianos did something very important for Greek culture.He connected folk forms of art,folk dances,songs and poetry with our classical past.We presented this performance in many places around the world,and the feeling that it stirred in the audience was quite similar,even though they didn't always understand the language," she said.
The Chinese civilization is a huge tree with very deep roots,and Greece also has a rich ancient civilization,she said,adding she believes that the two countries could promote cooperation and exchanges in many fields,such as in preservation of antiques.

C.The taller growth wants the deeper roots.

(2)What did Koniordou do in Shanghai?

(3)Why did Koniordou cooperate with Kostas Tsianos?
A.To indicate her friendship with Tsianos.
B.To show Koniordou was also expert at directing.

3. For more than 25 years,search engines have been the Internet's front door.AltaVista,the first site to allow searches of the full text of the web,was swiftly replaced by Google,which has dominated the field ever since.Google's search engine,still the heart of its business,has made its parent,Alphabet,one of the world's most valuable companies.
But nothing lasts forever,particularly in technology.Just ask IBM,which once ruled business computing,or Nokia,once the leader in mobile phones.Both were defeated because they missed big technological transitions (革新).Now tech firms are excited about an innovation that might bring a similar shift and a similar opportunity.Chatbots (聊天機器人) powered by artificial intelligence (AI) let users gather information via typed conversations.Leading the field is ChatGPT,made by OpenAI,a startup.By the end of January,two months after its launch,ChatGPT was being used by more than 100 m people,making it the fastest- growing consumer application in history,according to UBS,a bank.
AI is already used behind the scenes in many products,but ChatGPT has put it center stage,by letting people chat with an Al directly.ChatGPT can write essays in various styles,explain complex concepts,summarize text and answer various questions.It can even pass legal and medical exams.And it can synthesise knowledge from the web:for example,listing holiday spots that match certain criteria,or suggesting menus.If asked,it can explain its reasoning and provide detail.Many things that people use search engines for today,in short,can be done better with chatbots.
On February 7th,Microsoft,which has invested more than $11 bn in OpenAI,revealed a new version of Bing,its search engine,which includes ChatGPT.Satya Nadella,Microsoft' s boss,sees this as his chance to challenge Google.For its part,Google has announced Bard,its own chatbot,as a companion to its search engine.The share price of Baidu,known as the Google of China,jumped when it said it would release its chatbot,called Ernie,in March.
But can chatbots be trusted?Can tech firms make money from this?Only time will tell.
(1)Why does the author mention IBM and Nokia in the second paragraph?
A.To prove his idea.
B.To show their popularity.
C.To introduce them to readers.
D.To emphasize the value of them.
(2)What does the underlined word "synthesise " mean in Paragraph 3?

D.Advance.
(3)What is ChatGPT unable to do according to the text?

Mary's husband died a few years ago from an accident.To make ends meet,she had to take on several jobs and bring up her five children alone.Fortunately,her oldest children understood her and helped to look after the younger kids.Mary always felt terrible about that,but there was nothing she could do.She dreamed of having a van to transport goods for others so that she could have another source of income.
In the mornings,Mary cleaned the houses for some families,and worked as a cashier at a supermarket the rest of the afternoon.At night,she worked at a gas station's convenience store.Every night,she came home tired,and most of the kids had been asleep by then.
One afternoon,Mary was walking to the supermarket to start her duty when she saw an old man staring at the window of the bakery next door.The smell of fresh-baked bread permeated (彌漫) the air.However,the man merely sighed and started walking away.
Mary felt awful for some unknown reason and stopped the man. "Hey,sir.I think I've seen you before at the store, "she said. "Yes.I'm Hector.Nice to see you," the old man nodded at her and started to walk away.
"Wait,do you need anything?" Mary said,smiling kindly.
"Honestly,there was a leak in my roof this month,and I had to spend my entire month's pension (退休金) on it.I don't have much money for desserts," he said. "I don't know when I'll be able to buy some again."
