Instead, they came up with interesting games to play in their childhood. Lets take a look.Stone ballsDuring the Qing Dynasty, kicking a stone ball around was a popular sport in northern part of China, and it was often played in winter to keep warm. Stones were carved into small balls and kicked along with feet. In xx, the sport was included in the petition item in the 6th National Ethnic Group Traditional Sports Meeting held in Beijing.Flying kitesKites have quite a long history. The earliest kites were made of wood, instead of paper. Nowadays, the three most famous kites are the Beijing kite, Tianjin kite and Weifang kite, which each has distinctive features. The swallow-shaped kite is a well-known Beijing style.Hide-and-seekHide-and-seek is a traditional game for children, popular around the nation. There are two ways to play: covering a childs eyes while other kids run around to tease him or, more monly, participants hide and one child must try to find them.Watching shadow playsThe closest thing to watching a film or television for entertainment during ancient times was going to see a shadow play. Folk artists control puppets （木偶）behind the screen, telling stories and acpanied by music. During the Qing Dynasty, shadow play art reached its peak, and was staged for each major occasion. Shadow play was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage in xx, and was added to the UNESCO intangible cultural heritage list in xx.21.

Exit sends the employer a resignation letter and helps to arrange some details, such as when the employee could pick up their belongings.However, the pany does not handle more plex matters, such as what to do with remaining vacation days.Since starting Exit last year, co-founders Yuichiro Okazaki and Toshiyuki Niino have helped nearly 800 people quit their jobs, the Japan Times reports. “Quitting.can be a soul-crushing experience,” Niino said in an interview,“Were here to provide a sense of relief by taking on that burden.”The average Japanese employee stays at the same pany for 12.1 years, according to the Japan Institute for Labour Policy and Training.The average is about eight years in the UK and four years in the U.S.Japanese panies often reward employees who stay with them for a long time with higher pay, even if they are not highly qualified.This discourages people from changing jobs or careers.Still, the number of people who changed jobs has increased over the last seven years, reaching 3.11 million in xx, according to Japans Ministry of Internal Affairs and munications.The Wall Street Journal says that Japans strong economy and decreasing population have made it possible for many workers to find higher-paying jobs with fewer work hours.This is good news in a country where overwork is still a major problem.24.

He once spent a fortnight inside a stuffed bear, was buried under a rock for eight days and floated down Frances Rhone River inside a giant corked bottle. He has also crossed the Alps in a barrel (桶) and last year spent a week on top of a 20-metre pole outside a Paris train station like the saints of the early Christian church.But Jean de Loisy in charge of the Palais de Tokyo museum where Poinchevals “Stone” and “Egg” performances are being held, insisted that his work should not be regarded as stunts (作秀) but as a series of mystical journeys. Instead they are significant reflection on “inner exploration, on modifying the self and of living in other space beyond our own”, De Loisy said.The artist said he has spent months mentally and physically preparing himself for the life inside the rock, where he will sit up with his arms outstretched. Holes have been bored in the rock for air and cables for a heart monitor and emergency telephone line. Poincheval said all he will have to eat during the time will be a little dried meat and cartons of soup and other liquids.His next performance “Egg” will begin on 29 March, with Poincheval sitting on a dozen eggs for between three and four weeks until they hatch.He will eat a special diet rich in ginger so he can keep the eggs at a minimum of 37 degrees Celsius, with only a half an hour break every 24 hours to keep him from cracking. The chicks that hatch “will go and live with my parents”, Poincheval added.28. Abraham Poincheval will stay in the big rock for a week to _.A. show his unique characterB. attract the attention of peopleC. experience a special lifeD. prove how strong he is29. The performances of Poinchevals in paragraph 3 are mentioned to show_A. staying in a stone is the scariestB .he is really a strange personC. he is always challenging limitsD. his action is actually very normal30. According to Jean de Loisy, Poinchevals performances_A. are of great significance B. are nothing but stuntsC. can be models for people to followD. show that life in other space is mystery 31. The special diet mentioned in the last paragraph _A. will help him to keep fullB. will keep a high body temperature C. is to protect the eggs from being broken D. is to keep him awakeDResearchers at the University of Chicago have trained an artificial intelligence system, to write fake reviews on Yelp, a website showing customers reviews on shopping or something else, and its pretty hard to tell them apart from a human review. Their study, which will be presented at the ACM Conference on puter and munications Security in October, aimed to highlight how easily these systems can write reviews like humans and how damaging they can bee if theyre not monitored properly.Since many small businesses rely on online reviews to help grow and sustain their reputation, a future where someone - like a rival or angry customer - could crazily fill their page with negative reviews written by a machine is pretty worrying.And, according to the research team, the threat goes far beyond a bunch of fake reviews on Yelp. In general, the threat is bigger, Ben Y. Zhao, one of the authors of the study, said. I think the threat towards society is large and it really misleads users and shakes our belief in what is real and what is not. I think thats going to be even more unimaginable.To test how believable these reviews came across, the researchers invited 40 volunteers and had AI generate five fake reviews for 40 actual restaurants. The volunteers were asked how useful they thought the review was and whether or not they thought it was fake. The AI reviews ranked as “effectively indistinguishable” from real reviews, according to the study. Further, the fake reviews were given a 3.15 usefulness rating, pared to a3.28 rating for human reviews.32. What can the new artificial intelligence system do according to the passage?A. It can help train new reviewers.B. It can tell the real reviews from the fake ones.C. It can write human-like reviews.D. It can easily damage the businesses.33. What does the underlined word “rival” mean in the passage? A. A person who respects you deeply.B. A person who petes with you. C. A person who loves to give fake reviews.D. A person who can control you from distance.34. What can we infer from Ben Y. Zhaos remarks?A. Artificial intelligence can put the society in danger.B. The artificial intelligence is only used by the researchers.C. The artificial intelligence will help people shake.D. Ben Y. Zhao is optimistic about the further development of artificial intelligence.35. What is the best title for the passage?A. Tips & Suggestions on Giving Reviews.B. How to Tell the Fake Reviews.C. Development of AI in Review on Yelp.D. AI is ing to Steal Your Reviews.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分, 满分10分）根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。What Makes a Story Newsworthy?News can be defined as “ newsworthy information about recent events or happenings, especially as reported by news media”. Bur what makes news worthy? 36._Timing The word news means things which are new. Topics which are current are good news. 37._ If it happened today, its news.
