As I watched the poor woman, I thought about the letters my mother wrote and how a piece of paper turned into a love letter when a person puts herself into it. I would write the woman one, I decided. I could drop it at her feet. I started writing but when I looked up, the woman was gone. Back on the train, just a few days later, my plan became clear. I was going to leave the letter I wrote to the woman for someone else to find. Then I would put other love letters all over New York City. And you want to know why? Because it made me feel something. In the following months, I started my own site, MoreLoveLetters.com, encouraging others to write and leave letters in their own communities. About a year later, a woman wrote to me about her friend Briana, a single mother struggling to pay the bills. I put Briana’s story on the website, encouraging anyone who read it to mail me letters of encouragement for Briana. A week later, I felt disappointed as I walked into the post office and opened PO Box 2061. It was nearly empty. “Oh, Box 2061,” said the man at the front of the post office. “You got too much mail, dear. We moved your mail to a bigger box.” I mailed the love letters to Briana, and a week later, I got a thank-you e-mail from Briana’s friend. “Thanks for your love letters,” she wrote, “They show we’re not alone and that we’re not struggling for nothing.” After such an amazing reply to Briana’s story, I was encouraged to continue. I continued mailing letters to hundreds of people who didn’t expect to get mail except bills that day. ( ) 11.Why did the writer want to write a letter to the old woman? A.

This is the first time in the US that parents have been punished for what their child did in a mass shooting. Prosecutors (检察官) argued that the parents ignored clear signs of their son's mental health problems and they even bought the gun he used in the 2021 attack.The boy was 15 years old when he killed four students and injured seven others at Oxford High School in Michigan. "Opportunities knocked over and over again, louder and louder, but it was ignored,"Judge Cheryl Matthews told the court. When kids do really bad things, like shootings, it makes people all over the world think about how to stop the tragedies from happening again. While most countries and regions have made 12 or 14 the lowest age for being held responsible for a crime, some tried to lower the age of criminal responsibility. In 2010, Denmark lowered its age from 15 to 14. But it didn't stop 14-year-olds from committing crimes. Instead, punishment made it harder for them to go back to school. That led to worse behaviors and an increasing number of youths committing crimes again.So, two years later, Denmark put the lowest age of criminal responsibility back to 15 years old, The Paper reported. In Germany, the government focuses more on teaching and helping young people who commit crimes,rather than just punishing them. As noted in a 2018 paper published in the Justice Evaluation Journal, they try to educate and guide young people to live better lives, instead of just putting them in prison. ( ) 16.What are the reasons for the punishment of the boy's parents? a.Teaching their son to shoot. b. Causing the boy's mental health problems. c.Providing the gun used in the shooting. d. Not being responsible in bringing up their son. A.ab B.ac C. bd D.cd ( ) 17.How might the judge feel according to her words in Paragraph 3? A. Bored and tired. B.Scared and nervous. C. Angry and upset. D.Stressed and worried. ( ) 18. What happened after Denmark lowered its age for criminal responsibility? A.Youths over 14 years old behaved better. B.There were fewer crimes by youths. C.More teenagers committed crimes again. D. Denmark lowered the age again. ( ) 19.What does Germany do to deal with the criminal behavior of young people? A. Avoid punishing them. B. Help young criminals improve. C. Put them in prison as long as possible. D.Give them money for a better life. ( ) 20.What is the passage mainly about? A. The causes of youth crime. B.The roles parents play in youths' development. C. Governments' responsibility for youth crime. D. Youth crime and governments' ways of dealing with it. C ① It can be really awkward if someone sees you talking to yourself. But don't feel bad about it! Talking to yourself actually has a lot of benefits. ② You probably know that thinking is good for the brain. It helps us do things like making plans and managing our feelings.Speaking out loud is like showing this quiet inner speech. It can help us in different areas like school,sports and work. ③ When encouragement comes from oneself, it adds to self-confidence. A 2009 study invited 72 tennis players to take part in some matches. Researchers put the players into two groups: one group that said nothing while playing, and the other that talked to themselves while playing. They found that the self-talkers showed more confidence and played better than those in the silent group. ④ Talking to yourself,especially in the third person,can also help us manage bad feelings. "Referring to yourself in the third person leads people to think about themselves more similar to how they think about others," said Jason Moser, a professor from Michigan State University,US. This can help us see things from a different point of view, especially when we're feeling sad or angry. ⑤ Self-talk also helps improve memory.Researchers tested four different ways to memorize things: reading silently, reading aloud, listening to someone else read and listening to a recording of oneself reading.Those who read out loud recalled the information the best, researchers said in their study published in the journal Memory. It's because the information is likely to become a long-term memory if said out loud. ( ) 21.What might the underlined word "benefits" mean in Paragraph 1?

Just do what I can.” C. “What can Annie do to make the situation better?” D. “You are the strongest person I've ever met.” ( ) 24. According to the last paragraph, reading out can____________. A. help listeners have long-term memory. B.help one remember things longer. C.help to memorize things very quickly. D. make more people know the information.

It is a new tool that can make a video like magic! Just tell Sora your imagination, and watch it create 36 high-quality video up to one minute just in front of your eyes. How good is it? Videos created by Sora look good on both big and small devices, such as computers and smart phones. Sora can also make scenes with lots of people doing different things with clear details. It also knows 37 things should look in real life. Why is it so good? Sora is a good learner. It looks at many videos and learns from them by 38 (break) them into very small bits. It uses these bits to make a new video. The new video is gray and 39 a complete mess at first — you can’t tell what’s in it. Then, Sora fixes the video until it looks good and smooth. Sora also gets help from Chat GPT, which turns 40 (user) short sentences into clear instructions. This helps Sora make the video just as it 41 (ask). Is it good enough? Since Sora was announced in February 2024, OpenAI 42 (know) that it is far from perfect. When meeting complex images, it can’t make everything look real because it may find them hard 43 (understand). For example, when a person moves, things around them change. In another video, a grandma blows the candle on a birthday cake, 44 the flame doesn’t move at all. Sora may not be able to tell “left” from “right” 45 (correct) and mess up a person’s leg moves.
