According to a research more than 130 billion pounds of uneaten food go to waste in Laura’s country each year. That is about 30% of the yearly food supply (供应). It is a sad fact especially when you consider how many families and homeless people are in hunger.
When Laura saw her school dining hall throw away food that was not eaten at all every day, she came up with an idea. She started a project to help her school dining hall to give away uneaten food to homeless shelters (庇护所) in her community. In the past three years, the same project has spread to other schools and some fast food restaurants throughout the city. The project is called Feed& find, and has already fed thousands of people in her city.
How does it work? Through an app, Feed& Find matches local homeless shelters with school dining halls and restaurants that have uneaten food to provide. When dining halls or restaurants have uneaten food left, they can use the app to share the information about the food. A truck driver working for the project is then sent to pick it up and take it to a shelter.
Pretty cool, right? It’s not surprising that people in other cities have got in touch with Laura hoping that she could have developed similar projects for their communities.
Some people, however, have concerns about the safety of the uneaten food. They think such food may not be clean enough. Still, this project is a clever way to help solve the problem of food waste and it helps those in need.
31. The numbers in paragraph 1 tell us ________.
A. some people are poor B. food waste is serious
C. the population is large D. the research is interesting
32. Laura’s project first got food from ________.
A. her school dining hall B. her family
C. a fast food restaurant D. homeless shelter
33 People in other cities would like Laura to ________.
A. find a truck driver B. visit their communities
C. give away food to them D. help develop projects like hers
34. The underlined words “concerns” in this passage means ________.
A. ways B. secrets C. worries D. decisions
35. Which can be the best title for this passage?
A. A Dining Guide App B. A Food Sharing Project
C. A Driving Service App D. A Food Safety Project

Livestreaming (直播) is very popular these days, but have you watched livestreaming shows given by virtual hosts (虚拟主播)? They look like real people, but in fact, they’re just digital characters created by AI companies.
Xmov is such an AI company in China. Set up in 2018, it has created lots of great digital humans. People talked about the company when it presented its latest high-technology products to more than 300 guests at a launch event in Shanghai last year.
The company is the first in China to create the virtual social media star named Ling, who is always seen in a traditional Chinese costume. In August 2023, the company also used a 3D AI host to show their new products to more than 300 guests at an event, which caused a heated discussion among people.
Now, many companies are using virtual hosts to sell their products through livestreaming. For one thing, it costs much less than building a traditional livestreaming room and team. For another, virtual hosts can work 24 hours a day. And tests have shown that they can do the job as well as human workers.
Virtual characters are expected to be used in more industries. In the near future, we may see them act as teachers, salespeople, guides and so on. It will not only reshapes (重塑) many industries, but also allow human workers to put more energy into creative work instead of doing ______ tasks.
The AI technology is fantastic without doubt. But it can’t completely take humans’ place. For example, it will be difficult for digital humans to build trust with customers like real people. Also, the use of digital workers may lead to some safety problems if they’ re not well managed and controlled.
36. How did the writer start the passage?
A. By listing numbers. B. By telling stories.
C. By asking a question. D. By sharing a piece of news.
37. What is Xmov good at according to the text?
A. Hosting big events. B. Creating digital humans.
C. Making traditional costumes. D. Building livestreaming teams.
38. Which of the following can be put into “________”?
A. Important. B. Helpful. C. Interesting. D. Boring.
39. What can we infer from Paragraph 5?
A. Many industries will disappear. B. Virtual characters will be widely used.
C. Virtual characters will do more creative work. D. More jobs will be created in different industries.
40. What’s the best title for the text?
A. The use of virtual characters B. The history of online shopping
C. The popularity of livestreaming D. The development of AI companies
D
Can plants talk? Modern research has found something amazing: they do communicate with each other.
It has been known for some time that plants use chemicals to communicate with each other. This happens when a plant gets attacked by insects. The plant gives out chemicals from the leaves that are being eaten. This is like a warning, or a call for help: “I’m being attacked !” When another plant gets the chemicals, it starts to give out its own different chemicals. Some of these chemicals drive insects away. Others attract the wasps (蜜蜂)! The wasps kill the insects that are eating the plants. Scientists hope to learn more about this plant warning system, so that we can use it to grow more crops.
More surprisingly, plants also use sound to communicate. People can’t hear these sounds; but plants are making them. Some plants make noises with their roots. Com and chili plants do this. Some trees make clicking noises when there is not enough water.
Most surprisingly of all, plants have an amazing system of communication that can link nearly every plant in a forest. Scientists call this system the “wood wide web”. The wood wide web is linked underground by fungi (霉菌). It links the roots of different plants to each other. It is in some ways similar to the Internet we use. Using the wood wide web, plants can share information and even food with each other. However, it may lead to bad effects. Plants may use it to steal food from each other, or spread chemicals. to attack other plants. Perhaps one day scientists will learn how to create a “firewall” to help prevent these attacks within the wood wide web.
Scientists are learning more every day about the secret ways in which plants talk to each other. Maybe one day we will know enough about plant communication to be able to “talk” with them ourselves.
41. What will plants do when they are attacked by insects?
A. They will kill the insects by themselves.
B. They will send out signals to ask for help.
C. They will control the wasps to kill the insects.
D. They will produce chemicals as a warning or a call for help.
42 How are the wood wide web linked by fungi?
A. By making noises with their roots.
B. By spreading chemicals to each other.
C. By sharing food and information with each other.
D. By connecting the roots of different plants to each other.
43. The last paragraph’ is written to ______.
A. encourage people to make further study.
B. inspire people to communicate with plants
C. call on people to protect the plants on Earth
D. praise scientists for their great achievements
44. What is the structure of the passage?
A. B. C. D.
45. What is the text mainly about?
A. The secret language of plants. B. The living conditions of plants.
C. The functions of plant warning system. D. The importance of the plant warning system.

According to a research more than 130 billion pounds of uneaten food go to waste in Laura’s country each year. That is about 30% of the yearly food supply (供应). It is a sad fact especially when you consider how many families and homeless people are in hunger.
When Laura saw her school dining hall throw away food that was not eaten at all every day, she came up with an idea. She started a project to help her school dining hall to give away uneaten food to homeless shelters (庇护所) in her community. In the past three years, the same project has spread to other schools and some fast food restaurants throughout the city. The project is called Feed& find, and has already fed thousands of people in her city.
How does it work? Through an app, Feed& Find matches local homeless shelters with school dining halls and restaurants that have uneaten food to provide. When dining halls or restaurants have uneaten food left, they can use the app to share the information about the food. A truck driver working for the project is then sent to pick it up and take it to a shelter.
Pretty cool, right? It’s not surprising that people in other cities have got in touch with Laura hoping that she could have developed similar projects for their communities.
Some people, however, have concerns about the safety of the uneaten food. They think such food may not be clean enough. Still, this project is a clever way to help solve the problem of food waste and it helps those in need.

Livestreaming (直播) is very popular these days, but have you watched livestreaming shows given by virtual hosts (虚拟主播)? They look like real people, but in fact, they’re just digital characters created by AI companies.

Can plants talk? Modern research has found something amazing: they do communicate with each other.
It has been known for some time that plants use chemicals to communicate with each other. This happens when a plant gets attacked by insects. The plant gives out chemicals from the leaves that are being eaten. This is like a warning, or a call for help: “I’m being attacked !” When another plant gets the chemicals, it starts to give out its own different chemicals. Some of these chemicals drive insects away. Others attract the wasps (蜜蜂)! The wasps kill the insects that are eating the plants. Scientists hope to learn more about this plant warning system, so that we can use it to grow more crops.
More surprisingly, plants also use sound to communicate. People can’t hear these sounds; but plants are making them. Some plants make noises with their roots. Com and chili plants do this. Some trees make clicking noises when there is not enough water.
Most surprisingly of all, plants have an amazing system of communication that can link nearly every plant in a forest. Scientists call this system the “wood wide web”. The wood wide web is linked underground by fungi (霉菌). It links the roots of different plants to each other. It is in some ways similar to the Internet we use. Using the wood wide web, plants can share information and even food with each other. However, it may lead to bad effects. Plants may use it to steal food from each other, or spread chemicals. to attack other plants. Perhaps one day scientists will learn how to create a “firewall” to help prevent these attacks within the wood wide web.
Scientists are learning more every day about the secret ways in which plants talk to each other. Maybe one day we will know enough about plant communication to be able to “talk” with them ourselves.
41. What will plants do when they are attacked by insects?
A. They will kill the insects by themselves.
B. They will send out signals to ask for help.
C. They will control the wasps to kill the insects.
D They will produce chemicals as a warning or a call for help.
42. How are the wood wide web linked by fungi?
A. By making noises with their roots.
B. By spreading chemicals to each other.
C. By sharing food and information with each other.
D. By connecting the roots of different plants to each other.
43. The last paragraph’ is written to ______.
A. encourage people to make further study.
B. inspire people to communicate with plants
C. call on people to protect the plants on Earth
D. praise scientists for their great achievements
44. What is the structure of the passage?

A. The secret language of plants. B. The living conditions of plants.
C. The functions of plant warning system. D. The importance of the plant warning system.
