In it, Brazilian surfer Gabriel Medina appears to be suspending above the ocean alongside his surfboard. With his right arm stretched high above his head, Medina raises his index finger toward the sky while seemingly floating through the air. His surfboard, which is still attached to his ankle, mirrors his body positioning above the wave.Jérôme Brouillet, a photojournalist, caught the great moment. “I never thought it was possible that this shot would be so much appreciated, but I can understand why,” says Brouillet. The photo was taken in the waters off Teahupo’o, a tiny village with beautiful scenery on the island of Tahiti in the South Pacific Ocean — nearly 10,000 miles from the Paris games. Tahiti is part of French Polynesia, and it’s reasonable the Olympic surfing events were being held there. The 48 surfing athletes were being housed onboard a big ship. Brouillet took the picture just after Medina finished a record-setting ride on a barrel wave. He was scheduled to face off against fellow Brazilian surfer Joāo Chianca in the quarterfinals on 30th, but the events were postponed because of bad weather.“I took four pictures and one of them was this one,” Brouillet says. “It wasn’t hard to take the picture. It was more about anticipating the moment and where Gabriel would kick off the wave.”Even facing all the admiration and attention, Brouillet joked on social media, “Well hum. I just pushed the right button this time. To be fair, if all conditions are met — weather, waves, light, if the boat driver is in the right position, and if you know how to use your camera — you can takegood images of surfing in Teahupo’o,” he says, “All the rest is experience, timing and a bit of luck. This distinguishes a good shot from a great shot.”4．What aspect of the photo does paragraph 2 focus on?A．Medina’s surfing poses.B．The strong ocean waves.C．The unique floating surfboard.D．Medina’s magic floating image.5．What was the primary reason for the surfing events being held in Tahiti?A．Its pleasant climate conditions.B．Its breathtaking natural scenery.C．Its status as part of French Polynesia.D．Its large waves and complete facilities. 6．Which best describes Brouillet?A．Determined and lucky.B．Skilled and devoted.C．Modest and professional.D．Enthusiastic and confident.7．What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text?A．To praise a photojournalist.B．To introduce surfing sports.C．To record an athlete’s success.D．To promote the Olympic spirit.Dozens of wildfires are burning across Canada in May 2024 and sending unhealthy smoke blowing into the northern US again. At the same time, the southeastern US is getting smoke from Mexico, where drought (干旱) conditions have been fueling fires.Last year, Canada’s record 2023 wildfire season introduced millions of Americans across the Midwest and northeastern states to the health threats of wildfire smoke, with air quality warnings that reached levels never seen there before. Professional baseball games were postponed and the skies in New York City turned orange, at times exposing millions of people to the worst air quality in the world. In some regions, the smoke hung on for days. Hotter, drier conditions, coupled with dry grasses and underbrush that built up over decades of fire control, have made large wildfires more common.Canada is experiencing a second consecutive (连续) extremely dry year in 2024, and it is also facing the re-emergence of fires that burnt underground through the winter. In May, 2024, smoke from fires in British Columbia and Alberta reached unhealthy levels from Montana to Wisconsin and began to spread south and east into the Midwest and Great Lakes region. The North American Seasonal Fire Assessment and Outlook for May through July highlights droughtconditions in western Canada and Central America and higher than normal fire risk in both regions. More importantly, it notes the challenge of forecasting fire risk for later in the year as the El Niño climate pattern changes to La Niña in late summer.Computer simulations (模拟) of the future in a warming climate show there will be more smoky days, higher smoke concentrations, larger burned areas and higher carbon emissions from the fires — which further fuel climate change. In short, people will need to learn to live with wildfire smoke. It won't be every year, but it will be more common.8．Why does the author mention “baseball games” and “the skies in New York”?A．To illustrate wildfires in Canada are a trend.B．To emphasize the consequences of wildfires.C．To show how scientists evaluate air quality.D．To explain the return of wildfires in Canada.9．What makes predicting the fire risk more challenging this year?A．Constant drought conditions.B．Air pollution levels.C．Climate pattern changes.D．Larger burned areas.10．Which statement does the author agree with concerning wildfire smoke?A．It will be a new normal.B．It relies on climate change.C．It can prevent La Niña.D．It means more burned areas.11．What’s the text about?A．Canada’s wildfire issues.B．Wildfire smoke in America.C．Canadian wildfires’ effects on US air quality.D．The risks of wildfires in Canada and America.When humans have conversations, we take turns speaking, sometimes even interrupting each other. Now, a study reports that chimps(黑猩猩)follow a similar communication pattern structured around back-and-forth, fast-paced turns.“Human conversation follows very strict rules of turn-taking that are homogeneous across cultures and languages,” says Gal Badihi, the first author of the study. ”We started to wonder whether chimp communication is governed by its own rules, or if the rules are similar to humanconversation.“To figure out whether these interactions are like human turn taking, Badihi and coworkers studied hundreds of hours of videos of 8,559 gestures from 252 individuals recorded by other multiple researchers across decades of fieldwork in East Africa. The scientists studied them, describing the precise movements each chimp made when gesturing, the response of other chimps, the duration of the gestures, and other details. They found that 14% of the recorded interactions included at least one response to a gesture, while some included as many as seven back-and-forth responses.Chimps took an average of 120 milliseconds to reply with a gesture, which is not all that different from the human average of 200 milliseconds. Chimp gestures are largely meant to convey requests, with “groom(梳理)me”, “follow me”, “give me” or “stop it” being common commands. The researchers witnessed a variety of gestured interactions, such as chimps asking to change spots during grooming sessions. They do them just like humans do. This is different from other animals like dogs, for example, because an exchange of barking could just be an automatic instinctive(本能)unlearned reaction, rather than a true response in a conversation.Another similarity researchers noticed is the slight difference in response time between chimp communities—a variation that also exists among different human cultures. ”Amazingly, they seem to share both our universal turn-taking timing and slight cultural differences,“ says researcher Cat Hobaiter. ”In humans, it is the Danish who are ‘slower’ responders, and in Eastern chimps that’s the Sonso community in Uganda.“12．What does the word ”homogeneous" in paragraph 2 mean?A．Normal.B．Perfect.C．Vivid.D．Consistent. 13．How did Badihi’s team do the research on the interactions of chimps?A．By training them on site.B．By carrying out fieldwork.C．By analyzing ready-made data.D．By responding to their gestures.14．What do scientists find about the gestures between chimps?A．They are intentional.B．They are similar to dogs’.C．They almost have no difference.D．They are formed naturally.15．What can be inferred about the chimps in the Sonso community in Uganda?A．They communicate more effectively.B．They respond to others like the Danish.C．They avoid face-to-face conversations.D．They tend to learn language from humans.We have many hands-on hobbies to choose from in our daily life.If you're looking for a hobby that allows you to express your creativity and dive into the world of textiles (织物), sewing hobbies are the perfect choice. Sewing offers a wide range of possibilities. 16 By working with different textiles and exploring various sewing techniques, you can continuously challenge yourself and expand your skills. The satisfaction of seeing your ideas come to life through doing this is truly unmatched.17 Exploring visual arts can be one of them. Traditionally, visual art generally refers to fine art works, mainly including painting, drawing, sculpture, photography and architecture. If you have a passion for drawing and painting, you can create amazing artworks using various media, such as pencils, charcoal, or watercolors. You can experiment with different subjects and styles. You may try realistic paintings of real people or abstract compositions. Let your imagination fly high. 18Photography is another visual art form that allows you to grab moments, landscapes, and the world around you. 19 So everyone is a photographer. From nature photography to street photography, you can explore different techniques to create visually amazing images. You may play with light, and composition to create powerful photographs.If you prefer a more hands-on approach, wood carving can be an incredibly fulfilling creative pursuit. You can transform a block of wood into complex sculptures with the right tools and techniques. 20 And eventually, you can get a meaningful and rewarding product. A．Visual arts provide a means for artistic expression.B．There're many kinds of cameras and wood sculptures.C．When you' re not in the mood to sew, there' re other alternatives.D．Nowadays almost everyone has a mobile phone with a camera function.E．For example, you can create personalized clothing and home decorations.F．To make the complicated ones, you need precision and attention to details.G．You can use colors, lines, and shapes to convey your emotions and artistic vision.二、完形填空Two pool (台球) players who were once competitors have become lifelong friends after a kidney transplant (肾移植).James Harris Jr. and Russ Redhead were 21 before they first met a decade ago in Maryland for an American Poolplayers Association tournament.At the time, the two were 22 the top prize, an all-expenses paid trip to Las Vegas.

But there is one interesting concept concerning Chinese food which is almost unheard of in the West, and which is becoming increasingly ignored by the youth of the East—the ancient custom of “tonic food”.Tonic food is food which is consumed to improve one’s well-being or avoid sickness. For instance, it was once the custom for new mothers to eat a sesame oil(麻油) chicken soup every day for the first month after giving birth. It was believed that this dish would benefit the muscles, reduce pain, improve circulation, stimulate sweating, and warm the body. Some foods, such as goat meat and spinach, are seen as “hot”, while others, such as Chinese cabbage and radishes, are seen as “cold”. One should be careful not to eat too much of either “hot” or “cold” food. However, how much“hot” or “cold” food one should eat depends on the time of the year, how the food is prepared and what it is prepared with, and the individual’s health.The custom of employing tonic food for a healthier life also influences the catering industry. Chinese herbal medicines, such as wolfberry(枸杞子), can be found on many a restaurant menu, either added to fruit tea or as a beneficial addition to a dish. These herbs attract customers, such as overworked office staff, in need of a modest pick-me-up.So, whether you need to boost your strength with a large helping of chicken soup, or increase your mental powers with a serving of fish soup, you may find that this ancient Chinese custom could be just the tonic you were looking for.14. What is the present situation of tonic food?A．It is catching less attention. B．It is enjoyed by many young people.C．It is well-known worldwide. D．It is becoming increasingly popular. 15. What is believed to benefit new mothers?A．Chinese cabbage. B．Fruit tea.C．Sesame oil chicken soup. D．Fish soup.16. Which of the following best explains “catering” underlined in Paragraph 3?A．Medicine. B．Restaurant. C．Manufacture. D．Agriculture. 17. What can be a suitable title for the text?A．The Charm of Chinese Cuisine B．The Popularity of Tonic FoodC．An Introduction of Chinese Tonic Food D．Differences Between “Hot” Food and“Cold” FoodWhether in the home or the workplace, social robots are going to become a lot more common in the next few years. Social robots are about to bring technology to the everyday world in a more humanized way, said Cynthia Breazeal, chief scientist at the robot company Jibo.While household robots today do the normal housework, social robots will be much more like companions than mere tools. For example, these robots will be able to distinguish when someone is happy or sad, This allows them to respond more appropriately to the user.The Jibo robot, arranged to ship later this year, is designed to be a personalized assistant. You can talk to the robot, ask it questions, and make requests for it to perform different tasks. The robot doesn’t just deliver general answers to questions; it responds based on what it learns about each individual in the household. It can do things such as reminding an elderly family member to take medicine or taking family photos.Social robots are not just finding their way into the home. They have potential applications in everything from education to health care and are already finding their way into some of these spaces.Fellow Robots i s one company bringing social robots to the market. The company’s “Oshbot” robot is built to assist customers in a store, which can help the customers find items and help guide them to the product’s location in the store. It can also speak different langua ges and make recommendations for different items based on what the customer is shopping for.The more interaction the robot has with humans, the more it learns. But Oshbot, like other social robots, is not intended to replace workers, but to work alongside other employees. “We have technologies to train social robots to do things not for us, but with us,” said Breazeal.18. How are social robots different from household robots?A．They can control their emotions. B．They are more like humans.C．They do the normal housework. D．They respond to users more slowly.19. What can a Jibo robot do according to Paragraph 3?A．Take your family pictures and ship robots.B．Answer your questions and make requests.C．Obey your orders and remind you to take pills.D．Communicate with you and perform operations.20. What can Oshbot work as?B．A tour guide. C．A shop assistant. D．A private nurse.A．A languageteacher.21. What does the passage mainly present?A．A new design idea of household robots. B．Marketing strategies for social robots.C．Information on household robots. D．An introduction to social robots.Should we allow modern buildings to be built next to older buildings in a historic area of a city? In order to answer this question, we must first examine whether people really want to preserve the historic feel of an area. Not all historical buildings are attractive. However, there may be other reasons—for example, economic (经济的) reasons—why they should be preserved. So, let us assume that historical buildings are both attractive and important to the majority of people. What should we do then if a new building is needed?In my view, new architectural styles can exist perfectly well alongside an older style. Indeed, there are many examples in my own home town of Tours where modern designs have been placed very successfully next to old buildings. As long as the building in question is pleasing and does not dominate (影响) its surroundings too much, it often improves the attractiveness of the area.It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoilt (破坏) the area they are in, but the same can be said of some old buildings too. Yet people still speak against new buildings in historic areas. I think this is simply because people are naturally conservative(保守的)and do not like change.Although we have to respect people’s feelings as fellow users of the buildings, I believe that it is the duty of the architect and planner to move things forward . If we always reproduced what was there before, we would all still be living in caves. Thus, I would argue against copying previous architectural styles and choose something fresh and different , even though that might be the more risky choice.22. What does the author say about historical buildings in the first paragraph?A．Some of them are not attractive.B．Most of them ate too expensive to preserve.C．They are more pleasing than modern buildings.D．They have nothing to do with the historic feel of an area.23. Which of the following is true according to the author ?A．We should reproduce the same old buildings.B．Buildings should not dominate their surroundings.C．Some old buildings have spoilt the area they are in.D．No one understands why people speak against new buildings.24. By “move things forward ” in the last paragraph , the author probably means“”A．destroy old buildingsB．put things in a different placeC．respect people’s feelings for historical buildingsD．choose new architectural styles25. What is the main purpose of the passage?A．To explain why people dislike change.B．To argue that modern buildings can be built in historic areas.C．To warn that we could end up living in caves.D．To admit how new buildings have ruined their surroundings.Top Tips for Better WritingThere are many different types of writing, such as essays, letters and speeches. Whatever your reason is and whatever your style, there are some universal tips that will help you improve your writing:Be clear about your purposeThe most basic question to ask yourself before you start is why you are writing. In an essay or assignment, your purpose is to convey information and draw conclusions. But if you are writing a business report, you may want to make recommendations(建议). 26Start with a plan27 The result is often disjoi nted writing with parts that don’t connect. Whatever you are writing, creating a clear plan is the first step to getting your message across quickly and in the most effective way.Guide readers through what you writeYour task is to help readers understand your message quickly and precisely. 28 Each sentence, each paragraph should be relevant to what comes before and what comes after. You should use words and phrases that connect to show these connections.29Your aim in writing is to communicate ideas and information to other people, and you must keep that in mind with every word and sentence you write. Constantly ask yourself who you really write the information for.Write for the ear, not for the eyeOnce you’ve finished a draft of your speech, practice reading it out loud. 30 Revise so you are more comfortable giving your speech. You want to sound natural, no matter what the occasion is.Our neighbors had a loud party last night. We weren’t _________ but this was one of those celebrations that I didn’t mind. They are a bunch of young, single guys and I would have felt out of place.What _________ me was the way they behaved. One of the young men came over _________ in the day to “warn” us of the upcoming event and said it would be over at about 11 p. m. That was the first step. Even more _________ was what they did next. “Here’s my _________” offered our neighbor _________. “Text me if it’s too noisy.” That was a level of _________ I had never experienced in all my years of being a neighbor!And it really worked in their favor. My husband and I were so friendly that even when the event went past the _________ end time, even when the music reached high decibels(分贝), and even when we couldn’t get through on the phone number, we felt no _________. We knew they would stop and be __________ eventually.It takes such little effort to make people feel that they __________ and get people on your side. Everyone needs to let loose every now and then, especially in these uniquely tough times. But people who do it without __________ others are few and far between. I hadn’t fully __________ my neighbors until this week. We had adopte d that all too American “live and let live” posture. But now I see them in a new light and with greater __________.

As a result, Taylor suffers from cerebral palsy (CP). It is a condition that affects the brain. Kids who are born with CP have trouble controlling the muscles in their body. Taylor is 8 years old now. She uses a power-wheelchair to get around. Her twin sister Sydney participates in sports, but Taylor has a different interest: art.Taylor submitted(提交) a watercolor painting of a sunset in Chesapeake Bay, Virginia, to an art contest. Of the more than 5,500 students who took park in the contest, only 51 were selected. Taylor was one of them. Her winning painting is now being displayed in Union Station, in Washington, D．C. After leaving Union Station, the exhibit will tour the country.The contest was sponsored by VSA, the international organization on arts and disability. The nonprofit group was started to give people with disabilities an opportunity to participate in the arts. Submissions for the contest came from students with and without disabilities. The exhibition is part of VSA's International Arts Festival and was also sponsored by CVS Caremark's All Kids Can program.Art Changed Her LifeAmanda LaMunyon represented Oklahoma in the exhibition. She just finished her freshman year of high school. When Amanda was in elementary school, she had problems focusing and following rules. She has Asperger Syndrome, which is a form of autism.“People started looking at her differently，”her mother, Sherry LaMunyon, said. “They stopped looking at her as a girl who was struggling and started looking at her as an artist. It's changed her whole life.”The president of VSA, Soula Antoniou, said that the point of the exhibition is to focus on students' abilities, rather than their disabilities. “What we're trying to do is make sure each student finds something they're good at，” she said.That's exactly what Taylor's done. While she has some difficulty with fine motor skills, she's found that she's talented with wide brush strokes(笔画) in painting.Inspiring OthersBefore finding painting, Amanda said she had trouble fitting in. “I didn't have anything that I felt was my talent，”she said. Now she's more focused on school and is interested in studying fashion design and theater.Amanda hopes that the exhibition will show others that even if they have disabilities, they have abilities they don't even know yet. You can see more of Amanda's artwork at .41．How could Amanda's mother feel when they learned Amanda could paint?A．Disappointed. B．Surprised.C．Doubt. D．Pleased.42．What is the text mainly about?A．Students with disabilities show their creativity at an international art festival in Washington, D．C.B．Students with disabilities are more talented in art according to the result of an international art festival in Washington, D．C.C．An international art festival in Washington, D．C. gives people with disabilities an opportunity to participate in the arts.D．More than 5,500 students submitted their paintings at an international art festival in Washington, D．C.43．We may infer from the passage that ________.A．Amanda had Asperger Syndrome before she went to the elementary schoolB．Some children who are disabled even don't know their situationC．Taylor has trouble controlling the muscles, but her sister is healthyD．Amanda is good at painting with wide brush strokes44．Where could this passage come from?A．In a newspaper.

As an electric drone taking hydrogen fuel cell to generate the power and hydrogen,hydrogendoes not burn in thefuel cell during the operation of“Qingting”.Instead,it can be transformed directly into electricity by combining hydrogen and oxygen through the action of platinum-carbon catalyst in a clean and carbon-free way,and the only product is water.It is learned that it offers power autonomy of2hours,about four times that of the lithium battery drone.The life of hydrogen fuel cell is more than2000hours,about20times that of the lithium battery.The battery of hydrogen fuel cell contains no heavy metal pollutants, whose materials can be recycled after destruction.It is tested that the“Qingting”drone fails to burn or explode when it falls out of control,which performs better in safety.The success of the initial inspection of the“Qingting”drone has filled the gap of the application of hydrogen fuel in the electric power drone.Next,the company will expand the multi-directional application of hydrogen drones in inspection for power grid by carrying different functional equipment to make breakthroughs in the technical barriers.Moreover, under the national policy of actively promoting the application of clean energy,accelerating the development of hydrogen fuel cells in the field of unmanned aviation vehicles(UAVs)is of significance.27．What can we learn about the traditional drone?A．It is powered by hydrogen.B．It can work for a long time.C．It may burn if failing to control.D．It can ensure the safety of power grid.28．What does Paragraph5mainly talk about?A．How“Qingting”works.B．Why“Qingting”is safe.C．What advantages“Qingting”has.D．What effects“Qingting”has on the environment.29．Which statement about hydrogen-powered drone is NOT correct?A．The battery it uses is recyclable.B．It has been used to examine power grid.C．It can change hydrogen directly into electricity.D．It can prevent the hydrogen battery from explosion.30．What can we infer from the passage?A．Hydrogen fuel has been applied into other fields.manage the robots that will increasingly be their colleagues.The potential gains from the robot revolution have just started.It won’t be the plot in some films where the robots fight against their human masters and cause mass unemployment.31．What does the underlined word“indispensable”mean in Paragraph1?
