21、A growing number of people are using ChatGPT, an artificial intelligence program (人工智能程序) , to make books. What do you think about it?

Many young people think it has a bright future. Brett Schickler, who was once a salesman in New York, had no idea about being a writer. But after learning about the ChatGPT program, Schickler told his friend Kate Brown that he had a good chance. Then both of them tried to be writers together. “The idea of writing a book finally seemed possible,” said Schickler. There were over 200 e-books in Amazon’s Kindle store in February by ChatGPT. And the number is rising daily.

Although it is useful, a lot of people don’t like ChatGPT. They think it might hurt students’ writing and learning. They think students may write all of their homework and passages by using ChatGPT. Mary Green has a 16-year-old daughter Helen White. She said, “It is too effortless for her to get a passage with ChatGPT. She doesn’t need to think but gets a passage in a short time. She may not be able to write.” Green said that ChatGPT was helpful but schools and teachers should make good rules about it.

People have different opinions about ChatGPT. However, there is one thing in common. All of us hope that students can write more good works with it.

23、Horse racing is a popular sport and social event in many countries, including Australia and the United States. Usually on a Saturday or Sunday, people go to a big grassy field and watch jockeys ride horses around a track（跑道）.

An annual event in England is different from other races, thanks to some very special guests. The Royal Ascot（英国皇家赛马会）is held in June of each year. The British Royal Family always attend this race.

Jockeys, horse trainers and horse owners can win lots of money. In 2016, the total prize money for five days of racing at Royal Ascot was nearly 58 million yuan. That means the races are very competitive.

But while the races are important, a lot of attention is given to what people are wearing. The dress code（着装要求）is very strict. Ladies’ dresses must not show their stomachs or shoulders, while men must wear grey or black suits and top hats. However, this doesn’t stop people getting very creative with their outfits and wearing strange and wonderful hats.

Not every horse race is as big and fancy as this one, though. Most big cities have horse racing, but even people from small country towns in Australia enjoy going to the races.
