6 part of my life. My mom, dad, brothers and I lived in her old house for
most of my 7 . When I close my eyes and open my heart, that is how I remember her. I
can still see her in her flower print, cotton dress. I can hear her high-pitched

Have you ever wondered what animals are talking about? With the development of AI,
we may be able to understand their languages!
In Professor Karen Bakker’s new book, The Sounds of Life: How Digital Technology Is
Bringing Us Closer to the Worlds of Animals and Plants, she talks about how AI is helping us
to make an animal version
（版本）
.
All around the animal kingdom
（王国）
, there are sounds that we can hardly pick up and
decipher
（破译）
. For example, elephants talk with each other using infrasound
（次声波）
far below our human hearing range. Coral
（珊瑚）
in the ocean also sends sound waves to
attract baby coral to safer areas to grow. This is surprising as coral doesn’t have any ears!
Scientists have placed listening equipment into these environments to pick up the sounds
humans cannot hear.
After the sounds are recorded, AI can study their meaning. For example, Israeli
researchers used AI to translate bats’ 15,000 calls. They found that more than 60 percent were
arguments about four things: food, sleep positions
（姿势）
, invasion
（侵犯）
, and unwanted
advances
（求爱）
.
This technology can not only understand the animals but communicate back to them. For
example, bees use dances to communicate. A research team in Germany, therefore, put the
bee language AI system into a robot bee. They asked the robot to create a dance routine
（路线）
to tell the bees where the nectar
（花蜜）
was, Vox reported.

．
What does Karen Bakker’s new book mainly talk about?
A
．
Why humans should protect animals.
B
．
How AI helps humans to understand animals.
C
．
When humans can get closer to animals.

What does the underlined word “equipment” in Paragraph 3 mean in Chinese?
A
．耳机
B
．设备
C
．障碍
22
．
What can we infer
（推断）
from Paragraph 4?
A
．
Scientists have got to know how bats argue with each other.
B
．
Israeli researchers are the first to use AI to translate animals’ languages.
C
．
Scientists have been able to translate some animals’ languages with AI technology.
23
．
How did scientists tell bees where the nectar was?
A
．
They trained other bees to lead them there.
B
．
They asked a robot bee to teach them a new language.
C
．
They made a robot bee to tell the bees about the route by dancing.

选项中有一项为多余选项。
Who is the most famous artist in the world? If not Leonardo da Vinci, it might be Pablo
Picasso. Picasso was one of the most famous artists of the 20th century.
Born in Spain, Picasso showed his talent at an early age. 24 The neighbors all
exclaimed that he was a genius (
天才
). However, this “genius” was not an excellent student
when he listened to the class.
As a bad student, Picasso’s detention (
关禁闭
) in school has become very common.
There are only benches and empty walls in the detention room, but he is happy.
25 He
first learned painting from his father, who was an art teacher. 26 He also liked to try
out new ideas. With his father’s support, Picasso was immersed in the world of imagination
every day.
27 One of his most famous periods was his Cubist period (
立体派时期
). Cubism
is when an artist paints things, like a bottle, from at different angles (
角度
) all in the same
picture. So you see the front, the back and the sides of the bottle all at the same time. 28
This new way of painting surprised the art world in the 20th century. Picasso has become
an idol (
偶像
) to many artists nowadays. He has helped us see the world in new ways.
A
．
Because he can take a piece of paper and paint freely there.

B

In a way, it’s a bit like having X-ray (
透视
) eyes.

．
He can make lifelike paper-cut and create many amazing paintings.
D
．
People put his life and art into different periods.
E
．
By the time he was 13, he could draw and paint just about anything, and in any style.
F
．
Picasso’s influence was far-reaching for most of his life.
五、阅读补全短文
Last week, we went on a school trip to the Singapore Botanic Gardens.
（新加坡植物园）
We went there by bus. We talked happily while enjoying the beautiful sceneries along the
way.
It took us three hours to get there. As soon as I got off the bus, I was surprised to find the
beauty of the vegetation
（植物）
. There was beyond our wildest dreams! As we stepped into
the “Amazon Forest”
（微风）
blowing toward us.
After a long walk, we went into the Orchid Garden
（兰花园）
. The moment I laid my
eyes on the flowers there, I let out an excited cry. From blue orchids to yellow orchids, red
orchids to orange orchids, I saw a spectacular site! I feasted my eyes on
（壮观景象）（饱览）
the beautiful flowers.
Just then, it started to rain. Luckily, we were near the Sembcorp Cool House.
（胜科冷室）
We ran as fast as our tired legs could carry us to the cool house. The moment we entered,
we
felt the nice welcoming air-conditioning
（空调）
. There we saw plants that can only grow in
cooler temperatures. There were over 1,000 orchid types to see!
In Singapore, if famous people visit, we will name an orchid after them, to remember
their visit. Our national flower, the Vanda Miss Joaquim
（胡姬花）
, is also an orchid. This
shows that orchids are important flowers in our country!
I had a wonderful day at the Singapore Botanic Gardens. It has become my favorite
place. Whenever you think you need your mood
（心情）
lifted, the Singapore Botanic
Gardens is the place for you!
As seen from the world map, Singapore is just a little red dot
（点）
. However, there are
amazing wonders that live on the land. Welcome to Sigapore to find more!
Last week, we went on a school trip to the Singapore Botanic Gardens. After three hours’
