BEIJING — Chinese President Xi Jinping announced that China will launch the Global Artificial Intelligence (AI)

Governance Initiative, which presents a constructive approach to addressing universal concerns over AI development

and governance and drew up blueprints for relevant international discussions and rule-making, a foreign ministry

spokesperson said on Wednesday.

Xi made the announcement in his keynote speech at the opening ceremony of the third Belt and Road Forum for

International Cooperation (BRF) in Beijing on Wednesday.

“It is part of China’s active effort to advance the vision of a community with a shared future for mankind and the

Global Development Initiative, the Global Security Initiative and the Global Civilization Initiative,” the spokesperson

said.

AI is a new frontier of human development, and it comes with major opportunities and hard-to-predict risks and

challenges that require global response, the spokesperson said.

The spokesperson said the Initiative systematically outlines China’s proposals on AI governance from three

aspects, namely, the development, security and governance of AI. The core components of the Initiative are: We should

uphold a people-centered approach in developing AI and adhere to the principle of developing AI for the good of

humanity, so that AI is developed in a way that is beneficial to human progress; We should uphold the principles of

mutual respect, equality and mutual benefit in AI development, and oppose drawing ideological lines or forming

exclusive groups to obstruct other countries from developing AI; We should promote the establishment of a testing and

assessment system based on AI risk levels, so as to make AI technologies more secure, reliable, controllable and

equitable; We support efforts to develop AI governance frameworks, norms and standards based on broad consensus

and with full respect for policies and practices among countries, and support discussions within the United Nations

framework to establish an international institution to govern AI; Efforts should be made to conduct international

cooperation with and provide assistance to developing countries, to bridge the gap in AI and its governance capacity.

“China stands ready to have exchanges and practical cooperation with all sides on global AI governance and

deliver benefit for all human beings through AI technology,” the spokesperson added.

I was cutting up lettuce ( 生菜) in the kitchen when I suddenly remembered watching a video about putting the

lettuce stub (残余部分) in water to grow a whole new vegetable. So I took out a wide-mouthed mug ( 大杯) and placed

the stub into it, gave it a little water, and placed it by the window.

On a snowy morning, I noticed the first sign. A first small leaf from its heart spread out. A tiny green flag of hope.

Beaten, but not defeated. Within days, it was impossible to see the cuts where I had removed the leaves. The growth

was explosive. And when I lifted the blossoming head out of the mug, tiny root threads fell down, seeking for the earth.

What is growing here? Lettuce or hope?

If I were a lettuce in a similar condition, I’d want to doubtfully assess where I found myself before being devoted

to full growth. Yet for this lettuce, my inadequate offering of water and a place by a window was enough for it to decide

to reclaim itself again. It grew in a mug of water, in faith. This is the heart of this lettuce: alive, strong and fearless. It

deserved a name. I decided to call it Monty.

Monty wanted to grow, as we all do. I think I gave him a little love and freedom. Those two ingredients were all he

needed to return to himself. I see joy in this lettuce. The return to self is always an expression of joy, which is life itself.

With the right ingredients, this is the tendency of all living things.

Monty still lives in a mug, but I’m going to transplant him outside. He deserves to become his full self. The only

problem I see now is my capacity to support Monty. I hope I have enough of a green finger.

I’m surprised to find myself where I am. Maybe Monty is, too. I have the same choice as he does: give in and

decay (腐烂), or start again. The prospect of starting again is discouraging. But my lettuce-friend, Monty, leads the way.

I can only hope to be as brave.

24．Why did the author put the stub in water?

A．To hope that it would grow. B．To decorate the nice mug.

C．To conduct an experiment. D．To remove his bad mood.

25．What is the first sign of life in the author’s eyes?

A．The remaining stub. B．The small leaf.

C．The disappearing cuts. D．The tiny root threads.

26．How would the author feel if in the lettuce’s situation?

A．Hesitant. B．Fearless. C．Confident. D．Annoyed.

27．Which can be a suitable title of the passage?

A．Enjoy your own life to the fullest. B．Believe in yourself when in trouble.

C．Never be afraid to restart yourself. D．Give freedom to the heart in a way.

Antibiotics, which can destroy or prevent the growth of bacteria and cure infections, are vital to modern medicine.

Their ability to kill bacteria without harming the patient has saved billions of lives and made surgical procedures much

safer. But after decades of overuse, their powers are fading. Some bacteria have evolved resistance, creating a growing

army of superbugs, against which there is little effective treatment. Antimicrobial (抗菌的) resistance, expected to kill

10 million people a year by 2050 up from around 1 million in 2019, has been seen as a crisis by many.

It would be unwise to rely on new antibiotics to solve the problem. The rate at which resistance emerges is

increasing. Some new drugs last only two years before bacteria develop resistance. When new antibiotics do arrive,

doctors often store them, using them only reluctantly and for short periods when faced with the most persistent

infections. That limits sales, making new antibiotics an unappealing idea for most drug firms.

Governments have been trying to fix the problem by channeling cash into research in drug firms. That has

produced only limited improvements. But there is a phenomenon worth a look. Microbiologists have known for decades
