A horrific mudslide hit Monte cio California just days after the shocking wildfires that burned down . the state . Since early Tuesday Monte cio has been greatly affected by massive mudslides that have now de strongd homes taken lives and caused incredible scenes At least five people have been confirmed dead while many others have been reported missing . Hundreds of homes have been completely covered by waxes of mud causing the government to evacuate people in the area The National Gallery has always given pride of place to Peter Paul Rubens's Samson and Delilah,listing it among the “highlights”of its collection, since it purchased the picture at Christie's in 1980 for a thenrecord price.Critics(评论家) have long suggested that the painting is not really by Rubens. And now a series of scientific tests employing groundbreaking AI technology have concluded that the 17th-century Flemish painter could never have painted it.“The results are quite astonishing," Dr. Carina Popovice ,he scientist who carried out the study, told theObserver.“The algorithm(算法) has returned a 91%probability for the artwork not being authentic.”The AItechnology analyses different features of an artist's work,including brushstroke (笔刷) patterns. Popovici saidthat everything that's not by the hand of the assumedartist will come out with a negative probability and thatthe technology can produce accurate results even foartists who greatly changed their style across theircareers as every artist has a unique brushstroke.The AI analysis was carried out by Art Recognition,a Swiss company based near Zurich of which Popovici isco-founder. It has analyzed 400 works with thistechnology,and has an ongoing collaboration with TilburgUniversity in Holland.Critics have long argued that it is only a copy of a Rubens original that is known to have been painted between 1608 and 1609 for his Antwerp sponsor Nicolaas Rockox which then vanished after his death in 1640.Then it was not until in 1929 when it appeared again thatthe painting was collected by the National Gallery.The significance of this new AI method of authentication is potentially groundbreaking. Short of human subjectivity,emotion and commercial interests, the software is coldly objective and scientifically accurate. Many questionable works were given the credit to Rubens at the beginning of the 20th century. There is today a clear need for more reliable methods of judgment.8. Why does the National Gallery pay much attention tothis painting?A. It is one of Rubens's works.B. It can give off unique light.C. It receives much criticism.D. It is thought of great value.9. What can be inferred about the artists?A. They are not satisfied with the AI technology.B. They wish their artworks to be valued.C. They have unchangeable painting habits.D. They can create some artworks beyond times.10.What does the underlined word“vanished" mean in Paragraph 5?A. Broke.B. Arrived.C. Disappeared.D. Adjusted.11.What is the main idea of the last paragraph?A. The AI technology has many advantages.B. The AI technology is short of human subjectivity.C. The AI technology will judge many questionable works.D. The AI technology is the most reliable method of judgement.

The Harry Potter series, written by J.K. Rowling, is perhaps the most popular set of novels of the modern era. With seven books and many successful films to its name, the series has gathered about 15 billion dollars in sales. How did the series become so popular? The reason can be broken down into several areas.The first book in the series was rejected 12 times before it was picked up by Bloomsbury—a small publisher in England. So receiving this contract was Rowling's first step to success. However, getting a book contract does not ensure the success of a book. The story was soon loved by children and adults alike. In light of this, Bloomsbury Publishing published a second version of the books with “adult” (less colorful and more boring) book covers. This made it easier for a full range of ages to enjoy the series.Another factor that worked like a charm was that the publisher and Rowling herself, through the books, conducted midnight releases, promotions, and pre-ordering more readers. Customers who feared that their local bookstore would run out of copies responded by pre-ordering over 700,000 copies before the July 8, 2000 release.What does the underlined word “releases” (Para. 3) mean?A. The activity that frees or expresses energy or emotion.B. The announcement about the book’s publishing information.C. The sales of books that is available only at midnight.

The increase in international business and in foreign investment has created a need for executives with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. Americans, however, have not been well trained in either area and, consequently, have not enjoyed the same level of success in negotiation in an international arena as have their foreign counterparts. Negotiating is the process of communicating back and forth for the purpose of reaching an agreement. It involves persuasion and compromise, but in order to participate in either one, the negotiators must understand the ways in which people are persuaded and how compromise is reached within the culture of the negotiation. In many international business negotiations abroad, Americans are perceived as wealthy and impersonal. It often appears to the foreign negotiator that the American represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation that can afford to pay the price without bargaining further. The American negotiator’s role becomes that of an impersonal supplier of information and cash. In studies of American negotiators abroad, several traits have been identified that may serve to confirm this stereotypical perception, while undermining the negotiator’s position. Two traits in particular that cause cross-cultural misunderstanding are directness and impatience on the part of the American negotiator. Furthermore, American negotiators often insist on realizing short-term goals. Foreign negotiators, on the other hand, may value the relationship established between negotiators and may be willing to invest time in it for long-term benefits. In order to solidify the relationship, they may opt for indirect interactions without regard for the time involved in getting to know the other negotiator. Clearly, perceptions and differences in values affect the outcomes of negotiations and the success of negotiators. For Americans to play a more effective role in international business negotiations, they must put forth more effort to improve cross-cultural understanding. [共5题](1)What kind of manager is needed in present international business and foreign investment? [本题2分]A. The man who represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation. B. The man with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. C. The man who is wealthy and impersonal. D. The man who can negotiate with his foreign counterparts.

question or statement.Hot pot is a traditional dish in China. It is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of the Jin Dynasty. Hot pot's origins can be found in the dining practices of Mongolian horsemen who rode across the steppe and into northern China. Legend has it that the Mongols used their helmets as pots to simmer (炖) broth (汤底) over open fires, and cooked chunks of meat in the broth.Hot pot cooking seems to have spread to northern China during the Tang Dynasty. In the regional variations developed with different ingredients such as seafood. In the centuries that witnessed the growth of the Song Dynasty, hot pot moved — and changed — further south, with each successive region adapting it to their local ingredients and tastes.The ingredients in a hot pot vary a lot from region to region. Perhaps the most famous hot pot is the Chongqing or Sichuan hot pot. It features a dark red broth chock-full (塞满了的) of spices, chili peppers, and the uniquely mouth-numbing Sichuan peppers. In Beijing and elsewhere in the north, hot pot broth tends to be mild and, compared to its racy southern "cousins", a little light. In the northeast of China, a kind of local sauerkraut (酸菜) is used to add some tang (强烈的味道), making the broth a bit sour. People can choose a version of hot pot according to their taste.1 Hot pot is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of _______.A. the Jin Dynasty B. the Tang DynastyC. the Song Dynasty D. the Yuan Dynasty
