English is changing faster than ever due to technology and the growing popularity of social media.
Do you long to keep up with the times?If so,here are some old-fashioned words you should remove
from your vocabulary list.

1.Whippersnapper
As an alteration of the term“snippersnapper”,the word first appeared in the 17th century,
expressing our ancestors'annoyance at ill-mannered children.In its more contemporary version,the
word relates to a young person who is too confident and does not show enough respect to older people.
2.Tape
Are you born in the 1980s?If so,you may still be using the termtapewhen speaking of
recording music or TV shows.Today,though digital media has made data storage on magnetic tape a
thing of the past,this old linguistic habit still exists.
3.Dungarees
What we know as“jeans”today were once called “dungarees”to refer to trousers made of denim.
The term comes from a kind of cheap and rough cloth imported from Dongari Killa,India.When
manufacturers began importing the cloth from Genoa in Italy,this kind of trousers got a new name,
“jeans”.So don't be surprised if you catch your grandpa saying“dungarees.
4.Stewardess
In the earlier age of air travel,female crew members serving airline passengers were called
stewardesses.It wasn't until more men entered the field and the development of women's rights
movement in the 1960s and 1970s that the word fell out of use.“Stewardess”was replaced by a More
gender-neutral term,flight attendant.
21.Who can be described as a whippersnapper nowadays?
A.A narrow-minded kid. B.An ill-mannered elder.
C.A bad-tempered woman. D.A self-centered young man.

The year 2023 marks the 102th anniversary of Noether's ring theory,a branch of theoretical
mathematics that is still fascinating and challenging numerous mathematicians today.
Neother was born in 1882 in Germany,whose father was a math professor,but it must have seemed
unlikely to a young Neother that she would follow in his footsteps because women were banned from
academia and few took classes at universities.After Neother graduated from a high school for girls,
Erlangen University started to let women enroll.She signed up and earned her doctorate in mathematics,
which should have been the end of her mathematical journey.Teaching at a university for women was
still out of the question.But Neother stuck with mathematics anyway,staying in Erlangen and
unofficially guiding doctoral students without pay.
In 1915,she applied for a position at the University of Gottingen.Bill Nicholl,the dean at the
university,also a mathematician,was in favor of hiring Neother,although his argument was far from
feminist (女权主义) .“The female brain is unsuitable for mathematical production,”he wrote,“but
Neother stood out as one of the rare exceptions.”
Unfortunately for Neother,the Ministry of Education would not give the university permission to
have a woman as their teacher.Neother stayed in Gottingen and taught courses listed under the name of
a male faculty teacher.During those years,she kept doing research and made important contributions to
theoretical physics and Einstein's theory of relativity.The university finally granted her lecturer status.
Two years later,Neother published revolutionary discoveries in ring theory,which is the study of
mathematical objects called rings.Neotherian rings show up all the time in modern mathematics.
Mathematicians still use Neother's map today,not just in ring theory,but in other area such as number
theory and algebraic geometry.

Scientists have developed a blood test to diagnose Alzheimer's disease without the need for
expensive brain imaging or a painful lumbar puncture,where a sample of cerebrospinal (脑脊髓的)
fluid(CSF)is drawn from the lower back.
Current guidelines recommend detection of three distinct markers:abnormal accumulations of
amyloid(淀粉样蛋白)and tau proteins,as well as neurodegeneration—the slow and progressive loss of
neuronal cells(神经元细胞)in specified regions of the brain.This can be done through a combination
of brain imaging and CSF analysis.However,a lumbar puncture can be painful and people may
experience headaches or back pain after the procedure,while brain imaging is expensive and takes a
long time to schedule.Thomas Karikari at the University of Pittsburgh,who was involved in the study,
said,“A lot of patients,even in the US,don't have access to MRI and PET scanners.Accessibility is a
major issue.”
The development of a reliable blood test would be an important step forwards.“A blood test is
cheaper,safer and easier to conduct,and it can improve clinical confidence in diagnosing Alzheimer's
and selecting participants for clinical trial and disease monitoring,Karikari said.
Although current blood tests can accurately detect abnormalities in amyloid and tau proteins,
detecting markers of nerve cell damage that are specific to the brain has been harder.Karikari and his
colleagues around the world focused on developing an antibody-based blood test that would detect a
particular form of tau protein called brain-derived tau,which is specific to Alzheimer's disease.
They tested it in 600 patients at various stages of Alzheimer's and found that levels of the protein
correlated well with levels of tau in the CSF,and could reliably distinguish Alzheimer's from other
neurodegenerative diseases.
The next step will be to validate the test in a broader range of patients,including those from varied
racial backgrounds,and those suffering from different stages of memory loss or other potential
dementia symptoms
28.What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about concerning the current detection method?
A.Its reliability B.Its importance C.Its complexity. D.Its disadvantages
29.What is the breakthrough made by Karikari and his colleagues?
A.They created a blood test to detect brain-derived tau.
B.They developed a medicine to cure Alzheimer's disease.
C.They found a way to safely draw CSF from patients'back.
D.They discovered protein to help diagnose Alzheimer's disease.

B.To question a common view about Alzheimer's disease.
C.To introduce an approach to detecting Alzheimer's disease.
D.To provide evidence for the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease.

We are living in a world where technology is never a neutral tool for achieving human ends.
Technological innovations reshape people as they use these innovations to control their environment.
Artificial intelligence,for example,is altering humanity.
While the term AI arouses anxieties about killer robots or catastrophic levels of unemployment,
there are other deeper implications.As AI increasingly shapes the human experience,how does this
change what it means to be human?Central to the problem is a person's capacity to make choices,
particularly judgments that have moral implications.Aristotle argued that the capacity for making
practical judgments depends on regularly making them—on habit and practice.We see the emergence of
machines as substitute judges in a variety of everyday contexts as a potential threat to people learning
how to effectively exercise judgment themselves.
In the workplace,managers routinely make decisions about who to hire or fire and which loan to
approve.These are areas where algorithm ( 算 法 )is replacing human judgment,and so people who
might have had the chance to develop practical judgment in these areas no longer will.
Recommendation engines,which are increasingly popular in people's consumption of culture,may
serve to restrict choice and minimize luck.By presenting consumers with algorithmically selected
choices of what to watch,read,stream and visit next,companies are replacing human taste with
machine taste.In one sense,this is helpful.After all,machines can survey a wider range of choices than
any individual is likely to have the time or energy to do on their own.
Algorithms could soon—if they don't already-have a better idea about which show you'd like to
watch next and which job candidate you should hire than you do.One day,humans may even find a way
for machines to make these decisions without some of the prejudices that humans typically display.
But unpredictability is part of how people understand themselves and part of what people like
about themselves.From this aspect,humanity is in the process of losing something significant.As they
become more and more predictable,the creatures living in the AI world will become less and less like
us.
32.Why does the author cite Aristotle's words in paragraph 2?
A.To present a fact. B.To explain a rule
C.To clarify a concept. D.To illustrate a viewpoint.
33.What may result from increasing application of recommendation engines in our consumption of
culture?
A.Consumers will actually enjoy better luck.
B.Consumers will have much limited choice.
C.Humans will develop tastes similar to machines'.
D.Humans will find it easier to decide what to enjoy.
34.Why does the author say the creatures living in AI world will become increasingly unlike us?
A.They will not be able to understand themselves as we can do today.
B.They will lose what their ancestors were proud of about themselves.
C.They will lose the most significant human element of being intelligent.
D.They will no longer possess the human characteristic of being unpredictable.
