Going against the tide of flocking(蜂拥)to well-known yet generally jam-packed tourist destinations on vacation, a growing number of holidaymakers in China tend to spend their leisure time at lesser-known resorts to seek unique, relaxed holiday experiences. Reverse Tourism has emerged as a new trend among young holidaymakers in China.
Besides crowds, some vacationers chose less-traveled places to save on the cost of trips to popular destinations, which often require pricey

tickets, meals and hotel stays. \"Tourism used to be about sightseeing. Now it is about experiences,\" said Dai , president of the China Tourism Academy. He said popular tourist spots are always packed and often raise their prices during holidays. As people become more mature travelers, they are increasingly unwilling to follow the herd. Some of them are simply looking to take a rest somewhere quiet for a couple of days, which is a good way to vacation.
In addition, lesser-known attractions are not as “commercial\" and “standardized\" as developed ones and are able to offer more genuine experiences and natural encounters, according to social media posts. And unlike popular destinations, some under-explored places with little online exposure can offer more surprises. COVID-19 is another key factor fueling Reverse Tourism. As precautionary measures continue, traveling has an unpredictable quality. A traveler has no way of knowing what lies ahead before departure, be it a perfect holiday or one interrupted by a sudden outbreak.
\"The rise of Reverse Tourism is not a bad thing, ,\" said an opinion piece in Zhengzhou Daily. It means that vacationers now have more options, which brings more possibilities to the tourism market, the article explains. More importantly, the trend is set to force popular destinations to improve themselves instead of resting on their achievements, it noted. 24. What is the feature of Reverse Tourism according to the passage
第 4 页 共 19 页

25. Which of the following statements cannot account for the rise of reverse tourism
A. Tourists spend less than usual. B. It has already been commercialized. C. COVID-19 makes tourists more cautious. D. Tourists can get a better sense of experience.
26. Why do people choose lesser-known attractions according to social media posts
A. To create surprises on their own. B. To escape the uncertainty in life. C. To explore the original beauty. D. To promote the local tourism. 27. What is the text mainly about

Food deserts are generally classified as geographic regions where people have few or limited options to purchase nutritious and affordable foods like vegetables and fruits. Food deserts affect low-income areas far from supermarkets. Over 23 million Americans live in low-income areas located more than one mile from a food store. Over 11 million people living in these regions are themselves low-income. While people in food deserts may have easier access to convenience stores and fast food, they experience more challenges in shopping at large grocery stores that offer a more comprehensive(全面的)selection of healthy foods at lower prices. This inequality in food access means that families, children, and communities living in food deserts may be at increased risk of obesity and other diet-related health issues, including diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
While the existing literature on the lack of accessible, affordable foods has not reached a consensus on the root causes of food deserts, several factors are regularly recognized. Urban areas lacking access to fresh foods are generally divided by racial and economic lines. Diets rich in more nutritious foods cost around $1.50 more per day. For individuals and families living paycheck to paycheck, this cost difference can significantly impact their food choices. For people living in the countryside, they must travel many miles to the nearest store; a lack of

access to a vehicle and limited or nonexistent public transportation contribute to food accessibility challenges.
Lack of business investment also. plays a big part. When large food stores consider possible locations, low-income areas can appear to be \"too risky\" of an investment. More economically depressed （萧条的）areas can increase a business's insurance and security costs. Even public utility（设施）challenges, like poorly maintained roads, can prevent big companies from setting up shops in neighborhoods that most need their goods and services, according to Harvard Business Review. These market conditions have a great effect on food accessibility for high-poverty regions.
28 What do we know about a food desert Agriculture is impossible there.
People there have limited access to healthy foods. Many fast food restaurants are located there. D. People there are too poor to feed the family. 29. What is a key reason for food deserts A. Poor health care. B. Dangerous environment. C. Business failure. D. A low income.
30. What does the underlined word \"consensus\" in paragraph 3 probably

mean
A. A general agreement. B. A balanced diet. C. A contributing factor. D. An inspiring achievement.
31. What are the last two paragraphs mainly about A. Ways lo make food choices. B. The causes of food deserts. C. The problems with transportation. D. Principles of business investment. D
Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools have become extremely powerful, surprising even their creators. Most people have probably read a book or seen a movie about an Al or robot that has become so smart that it can take over the world. The Al in stories like these is known as AGI or Artificial General Intelligence. True AGI would be intelligent in many different areas and would be able to learn on its own. Currently, there is no real AGI. Most experts believe it will be many years before an AGI could possibly be created.
Scientists have been working to improve AI models, mainly by training the models on larger and larger collections of information. Those efforts are paying off.

The AI tool that has gotten the most attention recently is ChatGPT, created by the company Open AI. ChatGPT appears to be extremely intelligent, which answers quickly in perfect sentences, makes up stories and games, writes essays and much more. Another powerful model called GPT-4 is also developed by the same company. GPT-4 can create and explain jokes, and pass tests.
The rapid progress of recent AI models worries some people. Last week, many computer experts released a letter calling for a six-month pause in any work on AI tools stronger than GPT-4.
The letter claimed AI companies were in a race to create \"powerful digital minds\" that no one could \"understand, predictor control\". The group behind the letter wants governments to develop laws to make sure AI tools are safe. Not all AI experts agree with the letter. Some say the letter makes today's AI tools sound more intelligent than they really are. Others say it's more important to worry about real problems in current AI tools rather than imaginary ones in the future.
ChatGPT has caused so much excitement that many companies are likely to keep developing powerful Al tools. But the letter has sent a strong warning that many people~-including leaders will be thinking about carefully.
32. Why are the book and movie mentioned in Paragraph 1 A. To indicate an Al or robot is smart enough.
第 9 页 共 19 页
B. To clarify Al will take over the world. C. To state the threat of Al to its creators. D. To show the surprising power of Al.
33. What can be inferred about ChatGPT from Paragraph 2 A. It produces perfect language response.
B. It trains AI models on how to present information. C. It has difficulty in understanding jokes.
D. It offers practical instructions on essay-writing skill 34. What's the letter's attitude to Chat GPT A. Indifferent. B. Favorable. C. Disappointed. D. Concerned.
35. What is the text mainly about A. Why AI tools are beneficial to us. B. Why AI tools are accessible to the public. C. Whether AI tools are becoming too powerful.
D. Whether AI tools are more intelligent than human minds. 第二节(共5小题;每题2分,满分 10分）
