Nestled in the heart of a mountain village in China's Guizhou province,there is a
unique ecological family farm.It is run by Kevin Cillen,a 28-year-old Belgian who is
passionate about the land.With his parents and siblings,they have combined Western
farming techniques with local countryside practices to cultivate an"ecological oasis".
The family's pursuit of their farming dream in China began in 2000,when
Kevin's mother Hetty Cillen visited China as a volunteer for the first time.The
enchanting landscapes and rich cultural heritage of Guizhou fascinated her,causing
her to make this foreign country her home.Soon after,his father Patrick Jan Cillen
joined her.In 2017,the family rented a plot amid the forest to establish an ecological
farm where they laid the foundation,leveling the land,sowing pastures and rearing
lambs and chicks.
The locals have openly embraced the foreigners,inviting them to festivities and
celebrating traditional Chinese holidays together.In 2018,Yang Chengkai,a
34-year-old villager,befriended the family,often assisting them on the farm."The
community has embraced this family.Even the vendors at the local market contribute
by giving them vegetable scraps for free to feed their livestock."Yang says.
The family farm,hidden within the dense forest,is proof of Guizhou's ecological
progress.The farm practices diversified grass cultivation for high-quality animal feed,
uses solar panels for clean energy and employs rainwater harvesting systems for a
stable water supply.
Living in China,the 28-year-old Belgian has witnessed the country's remarkable
changes.He has also seized the opportunities of the Internet and new media to
高2025级英语试题第5页共14页
increase the farm's visibility.Partnering with Qiu Ye,a social media influencer,he
has set up accounts like "Kevin's family in Guizhou"on various platforms.By
sharing their daily lives on the farm and the natural beauty of rural China,their
content has quickly earned over 700,000 subscribers.

25.How does the family farm contribute to ecological progress in Guizhou?

When you see someone take that first sip of freshly made milk tea,their faces
look like pure joy.Across the world,customers flock to their favorite spots to meet
with friends and savor sips of these tasty drinks.
In the early 2000s,though,milk tea was just coming on the scene.The few
brands that earned a foothold in the industry were concemed:Would milk tea just be
another fad(一时风尚)food?And with so much new excitement for this product,.
would.people be able to distinguish milk tea companies?These were the questions
that Serenitea,a Manila-based milk-tea company,faced in 2014.While successfully
opening 60 stores,they found themselves in a stratcgic fog.
Unsure of what consumers truly felt towards the drink,they offered as many
高2025级英语试题第6页共14页
flavors as possible.They also had no clear definition of how they were distinct
their brand promise,product line,and product packaging all seemed nearly identical
to their competitors'.How could they define themselves,in a way that would deeply
resonate?
Like Airbnb,Serenitea partnered with an agency,CIA Bootleg Manila,which
specializes in drilling down to the deep consumer"why".The agency conducted a
series of psychological-based market research.Specifically,they probed the
consumer's deeper,emotional connections to milk tea,including their earliest
childhood memories of milk and tea.Their research revealed that milk tea triggered
three consistent psychological responses.
People connected to milk through the concept of nurturing;they fondly
remembered their childhood and being cared for by their mothers.Next,consumers
connected tea to its healing properties;respondents would recall receiving tea when
they had indigestion problems or seeing their parents drinking herbal tea for health
reasons.Lastly,they associated milk tea itself with teenage fun:a guilty pleasure of
their youth.They had uncovered the three psychological cornerstones of the milk tea
experience:nurturing,healing,and teenage fun.This set of insights was crucial.By
including them into the core of their brand strategy,they charted an entirely new path.
28.What do the underlined words"earned a foothold"mean in Paragraph 2?
A.Made an adjustment.
B.Won a position.
C.Lost the initiative
D.Achieved a breakthrough.
29.What was Serenitea's main concern in 2014?
A.Being confused with other brands
B.The rapid growth of milk tea brands.
C.The possibility of milk tea catching on
D.Falling behind the changing consumer tastes.
30.What did CIA Bootleg Manila specialize in?
A.Product packaging design.
B.Market expansion strategies.
C.Analysis of customer psychology.
D.Flavor innovation and development.
31.What was among the findings of the research?
A.Milk tea was popular among teenagers.

Shadows are often associated with darkness and uncertainty.Now,researchers
from the National University of Singapore (NUS)are giving shadows a positive spin
by demonstrating a way to harness this common but often overlooked optical
effect to generate electricity.
The team created a device called a shadow-effect energy generator(SEG),which
makes use of the contrast in illumination (between lit and shadowed areas to
generate electricity.It's made up of a series of thin strips of gold film on a silicon
layer,which is then placed on a flexible plastic base.
“In conventional optoelectronics(光电子学)where a steady source of light is
used to power devices,shadows are undesirable,since they degrade the performance
of devices.In this work.we took advantage of the illumination contrast caused by
shadows as an indirect source of power.The contrast in illumination causes a voltage
(difference between the shadow and illuminated sections,resulting in an
electric current.This novel concept of harvesting energy in the presence of shadows is
unprecedented."explained research team leader Professor Tan Swee Ching.
Mobile electronic devices such as smart phones,smart glasses and e-watches
require efficient and continuous power supply.As these devices are worn both indoors
and outdoors,wearable power sources that could hamess surrounding light can
potentially improve the function of these devices.While commercially available solar
cells can perform this role in an outdoor environment,their energy harvesting
efficiency drops significantly under indoor conditions where shadows are persistent.
This new approach to maximizing the efficiency of energy harvesting is both exciting
and timely.
"When the whole SEG is under illumination or in shadow,the amount of
electricity generated is very low or none at all.When a part of the SEG is illuminated,
a significant electrical output is detected.We also found that the best surface area for
electricity generation is when half of the SEG is illuminated and the other half in
shadow,as this gives enough area for charge generation and collection respectively."
said co-team leader Professor Andrew Wee.

The NUS researchers are also looking at developing wearable SEGs attached to
clothing to harvest energy during normal daily activities.Another promising area of
research is the development of low-cost SEG for efficient harvesting of energy from
indoor lighting.
32.Why are shadows considered undesirable in traditional optoclectronics?
A.They serve no useful purpose.
B.They weaken device performance.
C.They are-rare in outdoor conditions.
D.They are difficult to control or predict.
33.What do we know about the SEG?
A.It's specially designed to work in open areas.
B.It will replace existing solar cells once and for all.
C.It's most effective when fully positioned in light or in shadow.
D.It requires a balance of light and shadow to maximize electricity generation.
34.What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A.The SEG is unlikely to work efficiently in dark places.
B.The researchers are looking to reduce the cost of the SEG.
C.The development of SEG is limited by its high production cost.
D.The researchers are developing wearable SEGs attached to smart phones.
35.What does the text mainly talk about?
A.An innovative use of shadows to generate electricity.
B.The problems with shadows in conventional optoelectronics.
C.The challenges of adapting technology for wearable devices.
D.A need for efficient power supply in mobile electronic devices.

enemy.Underestimating your enemy can be the biggest mistake you make.

develop strategies to protect the weakest parts of yourself.Know yourself and know
your enemy,and you will remain unharmed in numerous conflicts.
