21、 It's said that in China millions of legal cases are now being decided by "internet courts" that do not require citizens to appear in court.
The "smart court" includes non-human judges powered by artificial intelligence, or AI. People seeking legal action can register their case on the internet. They can then take part in a digital court hearing. The system gives users the chance to communicate and receive court decisions by text or through major messaging services. Users completed more than 3.1 million legal activities through the court system from March to October in 2019, China's official Xinhua news agency reported.
China's first internet court was established in the eastern city of Hangzhou in 2017. Hangzhou is a center for major Chinese technology companies. Judicial officials recently invited reporters to the Hangzhou Internet Court to see how it operates. In one demonstration, citizens used video messaging to communicate with virtual, Al-powered judges.
"Does the defendant have any objection to the nature of the judicial block-chain （区块链） evidence submitted by the plaintiff 原告）?” a virtual judge asked during a pre-trial meeting. The non-human judge was represented in the system by an image of a man wearing a black robe. "No objection," the human plaintiff answered.
A Hangzhou court official told China's state-run CGTN television that the internet court system operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week. It is designed to ease the workload of humans and improve the speed and effectiveness of the legal process. Court officials say that even though virtual judges are used, human judges observe the process and can make major rulings.
The internet court in Hangzhou only deals with cases involving legal disputes over digital matters. These include internet trade issues, copyright cases and disputes over online product sales. Digital court cases in China have seen a sharp increase in recent years, as the number of mobile payments and internet-based businesses has grown. The growth is tied to China's huge number of internet users --- about 850 million.
After establishing the court in Hangzhou, China launched similar operations in the cities of Beijing and Guangzhou.
【1】What can we infer about the internet court?
A.Human judges have played little role in the internet court.
B.Citizens can only place their cases on file on weekdays.
C.It will become a helper for the court system.
D.It has enjoyed great popularity all over China.
【2】How do people seeking legal action get court decisions according to Paragraph 2 ?
A.By Al-powered judges. B.By receiving text messages.
C.By attending a court hearing. D.By registering the cases on the internet.
【3】Why are there more digital court cases in China now?
A.Because there is a growing tendency in internet-based businesses.
B.Because it is efficient to deal with cases in the internet court.
C.Because legal disputes can only be handled in the internet court.
D.Because China has the perfect digital court system.
【4】What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.The Future of the China's Justice. B.The Future Master of The Internet Court.
C.The Growth of Digital Court Cases. D.The Rise of China's "Internet Courts5.
22、In a quiet laboratory, Noemi Procopio works carefully with her drill.
With each cut she makes into human bones, Procopio removes small amounts of material, collecting some in a tube. That precious powder holds clues to when its donor died and the person’s age at death.
Popular television shows like CSI: Crime Scene Investigation may make it seem easy to work out a person’s time of death. But many methods don’t work for remains that are mostly bare bones. It is not uncommon for analysts to reach different conclusions for the same bones, says Procopio, a scientist and molecular (分子) biotechnologist at Northumbria University in Newcastle, England.
Those difficulties inspired Procopio to look for proteins and other molecules in bones that could provide an objective, dependable way to clock time. She and her colleagues have already identified a handful of candidates. Now, the team is tracking these timekeeping molecules and searching for others in the remains of more than 100 people.
Even after someone dies, there’s still chemistry going on in the body, says Glendon Parker, a biochemist at the University of California, Davis who is not involved in the work. There are a couple of ways that proteins in bones can be used to track time, Procopio has previously found. When certain proteins fade away, one of their amino acids (氨基酸) — the building blocks of proteins - loses a certain chemical group over months to years. These missing bits can cue researchers how long a protein has been fading. Meanwhile, populations of proteins also change in composition after death.
In addition to surveying protein candidates and searching for other potential protein timers in bones, Procopio’s team is on the lookout for other types of molecules. Together, these molecular clues may give researchers a more accurate and detailed picture of exactly how long a body has been dead and in what sort of environment.
Procopio hopes to eventually incorporate the markers she finds into a computer model that estimates time since death.
【1】Why is the television show mentioned in paragraph 3?
A．To tell us that show is very interesting.
B．To prove how important Procopio’s research is.
C．To attract more people to watch the TV show.
D．To show that it’s not very hard to track the time of death.
【2】What is the relationship between Procopio and Parker?
A．They are colleagues.
B．They work in the same group.
C．They are doing the same research.
D．They may not be related.
【3】What can we know from paragraph 6?
A．Procopio’s team is trying to find the time of death more accurate.
B．Procopio’s team has already found more molecules to identify the environment of death.
C．Procopio’s team is looking for other protein clues in different organs.
D．Procopio’s team is searching for more molecules to replace their findings.
【4】What can we infer based on the passage?
A．Procopio’s research is based on some television shows.
B．The chemistry in our body never disappears after death.
C．We may use a computer program to figure out the time of death in the future.
D．Proteins can provide accurate information about the surroundings of death.

24、Eight months after my father died, I saw some letters on top of my mother’s coffee table. They were tied with a silk ribbon (丝带) and addressed to her decades ago in my father’s neat handwriting. I couldn’t imagine my serious father ever writing anything like love letters.
“Would you like me to read them to you?” Mom asked with a smile.
The letters were written in 1974 when my father traveled to Italy to care for his beloved, sick mother, leaving his wife and me, their new born daughter, behind in Toronto, the city my parents called home after immigrating to Canada from Italy in 1956.
Growing up, my father was my hero and protector, but he was also a man of few words, part of a generation of immigrant men who worked hard for a better life.
I sat back while my mother read his letters to me, and thought, “Who is this guy?” My father used endearing expressions I had never heard him say. He referred to my mother as “my dearest” and “my companion” who was always in his thoughts. In each letter, he attached a Canadian one–dollar bill for me and announced, “You and your mother are my life.”
As children, we are sure we know everything about our parents. But, sometimes, we find out that they were and are people with various aspects.
My father was proud and stubborn (固执的), and so was my mother. During their 58-year marriage, their stubbornness often led to conflict. So it was bittersweet to hear my father’s youthful feelings read aloud by elderly mother with a wistful (留恋的) tone.
These letters are only part of their correspondence. My mother wrote back to my father. One day she will read those letters to me. And just as with my father, they might help me discover another dimension of a parent I never knew before.
【1】How did the author feel while Mom read Dad’s letters?
A．Amused.
B．Depressed.
C．Surprised.
D．Heartbroken.
【2】Why did the father travel abroad?
A．To have a reunion with his wife.

A．He was good at hiding his feelings.
B．He was proud and sociable.
C．He was a loving husband and father.
D．He was stubborn and serious.
【4】Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A．My Father, My Hero

25、 With about 100,000 marine animals being choked or injured by plastic every year, the danger posed by the pieces of plastic floating in our oceans is well- known. However, given that most of the small plastics measure less than 0.5 mm, collecting them is a _______task. Now, some Dutch environmentalists have found a way to catch plastic waste _______ it reaches the open seas and falls to pieces.
