At the “I Am Mbare” community school near Harare, the capital of Zimbabwe, over 30 children sat in neat rows in the small schoolyard. Their eyes were wide with curiosity as I unrolled my calligraphy work, displaying the Chinese characters “sheng sheng bu xi” as my encouragement for the kids to grow healthily.
I read the words aloud and explained their meaning. I was touched as the children excitedly tried to imitate (模仿) me, showing their interest in my calligraphy and the Chinese language. The small yard was filled with their enthusiasm.
This happened during a field trip I took from July 1 to 9 as part of the Tsinghua University Global Competency Overseas Practicum Course. The course sent four teams to various countries as part of a summer program in 2024, and I was selected as a member of the team visiting Zimbabwe.
This small-scale, in-depth course wants to help students to have a global vision, facilitating future people-to-people connections.
During my time in Zimbabwe, I was pleasantly surprised to discover that my calligraphy talents played a significant role in cultural exchanges. One of the highlights was a forum (论坛) where we engaged in a series of activities with local artists. While my fellow team members sang Welcome to Beijing, I created four calligraphy pieces and presented these pieces on stage at the end of the song, receiving an enthusiastic response.
In addition to my performance at the forum, I devoted time each evening to creating calligraphy tailored for the people we were to visit the next day. My efforts were well-received, as the Zimbabweans’ initial surprise at my calligraphy turned into delight, recognition, and gratitude after I explained the meanings to them. This gave me a sense of achievement and firsthand experience in cultural exchanges.
This experience in Zimbabwe has made me realize the power of art to bridge differences. These valuable connections will stay with me, inspiring me to continue sharing Chinese culture while remaining open to others.

In 2019, Coleman started taking online classes in a lesser-known language: Owens Valley Paiute. But it was not easy. Coleman is a member of the Big Pine Paiute Tribe of Owens Valley — and Paiute is his father’s ancestral language.
“My dad didn’t grow up speaking the language — like many families, it was forced out of use by boarding schools where speaking the language was forbidden. And there was no language-based language models (LLMs) to help me. But I’m lucky my great-grandparents sat down with scientists to document the language and to create recordings so I can hear their voices and words,” said Coleman.
ChatGPT and other LLMs exhibit human-level performance on many natural-language tasks in English, because one-fifth of the world speaks English. But Paiute is regarded as a “no-resource language”, meaning there are no publicly available Paiute sentences translated into English on which to train a machine learning model.
In a new paper, Coleman and his professor Krishnamachari propose a machine translation approach called LLM-RBMT (Rule-Based Machine Translation) to help people learn no-resource languages. In their method, the LLM does not translate into or from Owens Valley Paiute. Instead, it gives guidance to the rule-based translators, which rely on grammatical and vocabulary rules to translate between languages.
This method, said Coleman, mirrors how language learners naturally speak by mixing known and unknown words, making it a practical tool for real-world use. LLM’s remarkable general-purpose language skills make them a promising tool in helping revitalize (复兴) critically endangered languages.
Coleman also built and maintains a suite of digital tools related to language revitalization, named Kubishi or “brain” in Paiute, including an online dictionary, and a sentence-builder and translation system enabled by this research. For his part, Coleman credits his tribe’s members, past and present, for paving the path. “A lot of people in my tribe have been working for a long time on different language revitalization efforts, including classes, dictionaries, recordings,” said Coleman.
8. How did Coleman learn Paiute initially?
A. By turning to an LLM.
B. By taking a course at school.
C. By referring to printed documents.
D. By hearing the created recordings.
9. Why did the author mention ChatGPT?
A. To indicate the progress of Al.
B. To show the popularity of English.
C. To recommend a language learning tool.
D. To stress the challenge of developing LLM-RBMT.
10 How does Coleman’s machine translation approach work?
A. It bases its performance on grammar rules.
B. It helps to guide the rule-based translators.
C. It corrects grammar mistakes during translation.
D. It directly translates Paiute into other languages.
11. What is the last paragraph mainly talking about?
A. The cooperation between individuals.
B. Coleman’s talents and learning goals.
C. Coleman’s contributions and gratitude.
D. The main task of language revitalization.
【答案】8. D 9. D 10. B 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了Coleman在复兴濒危的Owens Valley Paiute语言方面的努力,他提出了一种被称为LLM-RBMT的机器翻译方法,以保护和推广濒危的语言。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段““My dad didn’t grow up speaking the language — like many families, it was forced out of use by boarding schools where speaking the language was forbidden. And there was no language-based language models (LLMs) to help me. But I’m lucky my great-grandparents sat down with scientists to document the language and to create recordings so I can hear their voices and words,” said Coleman.(“我父亲成长时并没有说这种语言——和许多家庭一样,他在寄宿学校被禁止使用这种语言。而且当时也没有基于语言的语言模型 (LLMs) 来帮助我。但我很幸运,我的曾祖父母曾与科学家一起记录这种语言并创建录音,所以我能听到他们的声音和语言,”Coleman说)”可知,Coleman最初是通过听录音学习Paiute这种语言的。故选D项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“ChatGPT and other LLMs exhibit human-level performance on many natural-language tasks in English, because one-fifth of the world speaks English. But Paiute is regarded as a “no-resource language”, meaning there are no publicly available Paiute sentences translated into English on which to train a machine learning model.(ChatGPT和其他LLMs在英语等许多自然语言任务中表现出人类水平的性能,因为世界上有五分之一的人说英语。但Paiute被视为一种“无资源语言”,这意味着没有公开可用的Paiute句子翻译成英语,无法在其上训练机器学习模型)”以及第四段“In a new paper, Coleman and his professor Krishnamachari propose a machine translation approach called LLM-RBMT (Rule-Based Machine Translation) to help people learn no-resource languages. In their method, the LLM does not translate into or from Owens Valley Paiute. Instead, it gives guidance to the rule-based translators, which rely on grammatical and vocabulary rules to translate between languages.(在一篇新论文中,Coleman和他的教授Krishnamachari提出了一种名为LLM-RBMT (基于规则的机器翻译) 的机器翻译方法,以帮助人们学习无资源语言。在他们的方法中,LLM并不直接翻译Owens Valley Paiute。相反,它为基于规则的翻译器提供指导,这些翻译器依赖于语法和词汇规则来在不同语言之间进行翻译)”可知,ChatGPT在许多用英语完成的语言任务上表现出了人类一样的水平,而 Paiute 是一种无资源语言,不能翻译成英语来训练机器学习模型。可见,作者提到ChatGPT是为了强调研发LLM-RBMT所面临的挑战。故选D项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“In their method, the LLM does not translate into or from Owens Valley Paiute. Instead, it gives guidance to the rule-based translators, which rely on grammatical and vocabulary rules to translate between languages.(在他们的方法中,LLM并不直接翻译Owens Valley Paiute。相反,它为基于规则的翻译器提供指导,这些翻译器依赖于语法和词汇规则来在不同语言之间进行翻译)”可知,这种新的机器翻译方法有助于指导基于规则的翻译器。故选B项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Coleman also built and maintains a suite of digital tools related to language revitalization, named Kubishi or “brain” in Paiute, including an online dictionary, and a sentence-builder and translation system enabled by this research. For his part, Coleman credits his tribe’s members, past and present, for paving the path. “A lot of people in my tribe have been working for a long time on different language revitalization efforts, including classes, dictionaries, recordings,” said Coleman.(Coleman还构建并维护了一套与语言复兴相关的数字工具,名为Kubishi,在Paiute语中意为“大脑”,其中包括在线词典,以及通过本研究启用的句子构建器和翻译系统。Coleman认为,他所在部落的成员,无论过去还是现在,都为这条路铺平了道路。“我们部落的很多人长期以来一直在努力进行不同的语言复兴工作,包括课程、词典、录音,”Coleman说)”可知,文章最后一段主要介绍了Coleman在恢复濒危语言方面做出的贡献以及他对部落人们的感谢。故选C项。
D
Skincare experts and beauty lovers often say that we should be applying SPF (Sun Protection Factor) to our skin every day. When we apply sun cream it can reduce our risk of developing skin cancer, plus it also helps prevent skin ageing and age spots. But Dr. Karan Raj, a medical expert, weighed in with a slightly different take.
He says that some of us don't need to wear SPF every day — and explained why. Dr. Karan Raj said, “Your skin color will determine the degree or risk benefit relationship with sun expose and if you need to cream up those cheeks.”
Speaking about why some people should wear sun cream every day, Dr. Raj said, “It also depends why you're wearing sunscreen. Is it to lower your risk of skin cancer or to limit photo-ageing?”
He added, “If it's to limit photo-ageing you should probably wear sunscreen every day, no matter your skin tone. But if you're just concerned about lowering your risk of skin cancer, you can be more selective about wearing sunscreen.”
He commented, ""This is determined by your skin color and UV Index (紫外线指数) . Generally sunscreen is recommended when the UV Index is three and above. So if you've got pale, sun sensitive skin that turns you into a lobster (龙虾红) easily, or you've got darker white skin, olive or light brown skin and the UV Index is three and above, sunscreen should be part of your routine.”
The NHS doctor says that the UV Index of seven on a white male is a UV. less than minus (负的) one on a male with dark brown skin. He added: “So if you've got dark brown skin you probably don't need routine sunscreen unless you're going to be exposed to the sun for long periods of time, if the UV Index is way higher than expected, or specific medical indications.”
You can find out what the weather Index is each day by checking weather apps. In the UK, the UV Index rarely goes beyond 7. The doctor says those who are worried about their Vitamin D intake, all you need is 25 minutes of sun exposure a few times a week to “max out” your skin's natural Vitamin D product.
12. What does the underlined word “take” in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A Way. B. Feature. C. View. D. Style.
13. According to Dr. Karan Raj, we should use sun cream every day .
A. to avoid skin ageing B. to prevent dust and dirt
C. to improve our makeup D. to reduce the risk of skin cancer
14. Which statement might Dr. Karan Raj agree with?
A. Sun rays won't cause the risk of skin cancer.
B. Dark color skin is not so sensitive to the UV.
C. The UV Index below 7 does no harm to skin.
D. Those lacking Vitamin D should use sun cream.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. What benefits does the sun cream offer?
B. How can you avoid the harm of the sun rays?
C. What is the link between skin color and UV Index?
D. Why is it unnecessary for some to wear sun cream every day?
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. B 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一位英国医生对于使用防晒霜的一些看法,他指出在紫外线指数超过3的情况下或者浅色皮肤的人需要涂防晒霜,而皮肤黑或者紫外线不强烈的情况下可以不使用防晒霜。
【12题详解】
词义猜测题。第一段介绍了人们每天要涂防晒霜。根据第二段“He says that some of us don’t need to wear SPF every day — and explained why. Dr. Karan Raj said, “Your skin color will determine the degree or risk benefit relationship with sun expose and if you need to cream up those cheeks.”(他说,我们中的一些人不需要每天都涂防晒霜,并解释了原因。卡兰·拉杰博士说:“你的肤色将决定晒太阳的程度或风险收益关系,以及你是否需要在脸颊上涂防晒霜。”)”可知, Dr. Karan Raj有一个不同的观点。由此可推知,画线词意为“观点”,与C项意思一致。故选C。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段 “He added, “If it’s to limit photo-ageing you should probably wear sunscreen every day, no matter your skin tone.(他补充说:“如果要防止皮肤老化,不管你的肤色如何,你都应该每天涂防晒霜。”) ”可知,每天使用防晒霜是为了避免皮肤老化。故选A。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段“He added: “So if you’ve got dark brown skin you probably don’t need routine sunscreen.(他补充说:“所以如果你是深棕色皮肤,你可能不需要常规的防晒霜”)”可知,深色皮肤对紫外线不那么敏感。故选B。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据首段中的“When we apply sun cream it can reduce our risk of developing skin cancer, plus it also helps prevent skin ageing and age spots.( 当我们使用防晒霜时,它可以降低我们患皮肤癌的风险,而且它还有助于防止皮肤老化和老年斑。)”以及下文中介绍的一位英国医生对于使用防晒霜的一些看法可知,在紫外线指数超过3的情况下或者浅色皮肤的人需要涂防晒霜,而皮肤黑或者紫外线不强烈的情况下可以不使用防晒霜,标题“为什么有些人不需要每天都涂防晒霜呢?”概括了本文的主题,适合作为本文的最佳标题。故选D。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
The Practice of Buying More Books Than You Can Read
Are you one of us? Like to buy books but eventually leave them unread? The Japanese have a word for people like us: tsundoku. Doku comes from a verb that can be used for “reading”, while tsun means “to pile up”. ___16___.
It’s interesting to consider the future of books right now. We have e-readers, phones, and tablets, which means the fate (命运) for the printed page. We have tiny houses and a major minimalism (极简主义) movement. ___17___. We have increased awareness about resources and “stuff” in general: is there room for piles of bound paper in the modern world?
I am a minimalist. ___18___. And I think that transferring my tsundoku to a list of digital editions rather than a pile of physical ones might be the way to go. However, the truth is, I love to hold a book in hand. Real books that one can hold in the hand are one of the things that I am unwilling to abandon. ___19___. I love being able to easily turn back a few pages to reread a sentence. And maybe, I love buying books that I don’t seem to actually read. But, I can also buy used books, saving them from the landfill and giving them a home.
___20___. I will resist fast fashion and unsustainable food and a bunch of plastic litter that I don’t need. And in return, I will allow myself to engage in some tsundoku. Besides, it’s not actually a waste because I’m going to get to that pile of books someday.
A. I also support sustainable ideas
B. However, I would give up useless books
C. So here’s the deal I've made with myself
D. I love the smell, the weight, the turning of pages
E. So, essentially, it means the piling up of reading things
F. In a word, I can predict the potential fate of word tsundoku
G. Both of them would seem to avoid the piling of books that may go unread
【答案】16. E 17. G 18. A 19. D 20. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要介绍了什么是tsundoku以及作者虽然秉持极简主义和持续性理念,但是仍然不愿意放弃买书的做法。
【16题详解】
上文“Doku comes from a verb that can be used for “reading”, while tsun means “to pile up”.(Doku来自一个动词,可以用来“阅读”,而tsun的意思是“堆积”。)”介绍了组成tsundoku这个单词的两个部分,所以E项“所以,从本质上讲,tsundoku就是堆积阅读材料”可以承接上文,把两个部分的意思结合了起来。故选E项。
【17题详解】
上文“We have tiny houses and a major minimalism (极简主义) movement.(我们有小房子和极简主义运动。)”介绍了极简主义以及房屋的空间有限,因此在这两种情况下,书籍的堆放就成为了不太可能的事情,G项“这两种情况似乎都避免了可能没人读的成堆的书”可以承接上文。Both of them指代两种情况。故选G项。
【18题详解】
上文“I am a minimalist.(我是一个极简主义者。)”提到作者是极简主义者,根据also判断A项“我也支持可持续发展的想法”可以承接上文,而且也是后句内容的前提介绍。故选A项。
【19题详解】
上文“Real books that one can hold in the hand are one of the things that I am unwilling to abandon.(真正能拿在手里的书是我不愿放弃的东西之一。)”和下文“I love being able to easily turn back a few pages to reread a sentence.(我喜欢能够轻松地翻回几页来重读一个句子。)”都是在介绍作者的爱好,喜欢做什么,因此判断D项“我喜欢它的味道,它的重量,喜欢翻动书页”符合语境。故选D项。
【20题详解】
下文“I will resist fast fashion and unsustainable food and a bunch of plastic litter that I don’t need. And in return, I will allow myself to engage in some tsundoku. Besides, it’s not actually a waste because I’m going to get to that pile of books someday.(我会抵制快时尚、不可持续的食物和一堆我不需要的塑料垃圾。作为回报,我将允许自己参与一些海啸。此外,这也不是浪费,因为我总有一天会看到那堆书。)”主要讲述了作者自己如何处理购书闲置的问题,因此判断C项“这就是我和自己做的交易”可以概括本段中心,能够作为段落主题句。故选C项。

Shortly after 9 a.m. we walked into the office where a ___22___ man was working on his computer. We assumed we were too early to check in, but were hoping to ___23___ our bags and then find a coffee shop somewhere. However, he ___24___ us kindly and, perhaps taking pity on the ___25___ under our eyes, worked some magic and took us into a cute hotel room early. With many thanks, we slid into our beds and ___26___ until the afternoon.
When I woke up, І realized my most prized ___27___, my DSLR camera, was missing. ___28___, I searched the room, but it was nowhere to be found. Near tears, I ___29___, heading towards the park, thinking I may have ____30____ it there. But no luck. When I saw the hotel worker, who looked ____31____ to see me, a sense of annoyance flooded me.
He waved me to his ____32____ while saying, “You left something behind.” Then he handed me the camera. “I figured you might ____33____ this,” he added. I nearly burst into tears of ____34____. Thanking the youth over and over again for all of his ____35____ today.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国第一个跨省的生态修复工程,这是一个真正为未来铺平道路的设计。
【36题详解】
考查冠词。句意:这是中国第一个跨省的生态修复项目,一个真正为未来铺平道路的设计。design意为“设计”,为可数名词作同位语,句中用的单数,前应用不定冠词修饰,design为辅音音素开头,用a修饰。故填a。
【37题详解】
考查副词。句意:绿色生态与和谐是主题,最终的结果绝对是惊人的。空后是形容词,所以空处应填副词修饰,absolute的副词为absolutely意为“绝对地”。故填absolutely。
【38题详解】
考查过去分词。句意:由图斯设计集团有限公司设计,这个令人难以置信的海岸线连接项目将湿地作为设计的一部分。本句已有谓语动词uses,所以design用非谓语动词作状语,根据句意以及空后的by可知,用过去分词表被动,所以使用过去分词形式,位于句首,首字母应大写。故填Designed。
【39题详解】
考查介词。句意:长江也被纳入设计之中。此处是固定搭配integrate ... into意为“与……成为一体”。故填into。
【40题详解】
考查名词。句意:该项目的目的是恢复和改善海岸线,为本地植物、野生动物和想要来这里享受自然美景的人们创造一个家园。空前是形容词,所以空处应填名词作宾语,beautiful的名词形式是beauty。故填beauty。
【41题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意:该项目旨在不干扰鱼类的自然模式,并为本地植物提供健康生长的场所。本句已有谓语动词was created,所以grow用非谓语形式,根据句意,此处表目的,用不定式作目的状语。故填to grow。
【42题详解】
考查形容词。句意:此外,还有一条隐藏的防洪通道,将海岸线与植物、地形和现有环境相结合。空后是名词,所以空处应填形容词作定语,exist的形容词形式是existing意为“现存的”。故填existing。
【43题详解】
考查形容词。句意:行道隐藏在环境中,在行走时创造了更加动态的体验。空后是名词,所以空处应填形容词作定语,根据前文的even可知,用比较级形式。故填more dynamic。
【44题详解】
考查动词时态和语态。句意:与此同时,步道周围是天然的草和植物,周围景色优美。此处为谓语动词,根据空后的by以及句意可知,surround与主语the walking path之间为被动关系,所以使用被动语态,且该句描述客观事实,用一般现在时,所以该句为一般现在时的被动语态,主语the walking path为第三人称单数。故填is surrounded。
【45题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:到处都有公共空间,所有这些都是尊重自然的。 此处是“介词+关系代词”引导的定语从句,从句缺少介词of的宾语,且指代public spaces指物,所以此处使用which引导,all of which作定语从句的主语。故填which。

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Spy Run
“It can’t be done!” Mr. Geiger hit the table with his fist. “I’ve carried messages for the captain before. But not this time! The enemy soldiers crowd into the woods. Our rider will be caught.” Emily watched her father as he paced the floor. Two neighbors nodded.
“Could a girl? Maybe they wouldn’t stop me?” asked Emily.
“You’re a child, Emily,” one man said gently. “You would be afraid.”
“I am not a child!” Emily cried out. “I’m thirteen, and I’m not afraid!”
“You don’t understand the danger.” said the other neighbor. Emily shook her head. She knew how risky the trip could be. The Geigers and their friends wanted to protect their country and drive the enemy away. But there were some enemy soldiers disguising (乔装打扮)themselves and spying in the surrounding areas.
Mr. Geiger looked at his daughter, saying nothing. He didn’t want Emily to take this risk. But no one else was more suitable. “Tell Sumter to meet me here tomorrow night.” He drew a small map, added a sentence, and handed Emily the paper. “Give this to Sumter by tomorrow noon. If you’re late, he won’t reach the captain in time.”
Ten minutes later, Emily began her ride with the map safely hidden deep inside her dress. She had never ridden so far alone. But she didn’t worry about getting lost. She was more worried that someone would stop her and grab the map.
By midday, the air grew hot. Emily stopped at a stream. While her horse grazed (吃草), Emily rested and ate. Then the sound of a deep voice made her jump and turn.
“What are you doing here?” Emily felt nervous as she stared up at two enemy soldiers. “I’m…” Emily didn’t know how to answer. If she lied, her face would turn red and they would know it. But she dared not tell the truth.
“We’ll take her to camp and find a woman to search her,” one soldier said. Then Emily was taken to their camp where they locked her in a small cottage and her horse was tied to a tree.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Looking around the cottage, Emily wondered how to handle the map before being searched.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
“Young lady, you can leave now,” a voice called outside the cottage.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 Looking around the cottage, Emily wondered how to handle the map before being searched. Quickly, Emily pulled out the map and looked for a hiding place. The floor was hard-packed dirt. Even if she could kick up a hiding hole, it would be spotted at a glance. Emily could think of only one thing to do. She studied the map for the last time and swallowed it. A minute later, a woman entered. She searched Emily’s clothes and boots but found nothing. Then Emily was left alone, waiting to be released.
“Young lady, you can leave now,” a voice called outside the cottage. With these words, the door opened and in came an enemy soldier. “If you had told the truth in the first place, we would not have held you.” Emily smiled. Never before had she been so happy. No more than an hour had passed since they caught her. She would reach Sumter in time. Then, convinced that no one had followed, Emily whipped her horse into flight and reached Sumter in time.

At the “I Am Mbare” community school near Harare, the capital of Zimbabwe, over 30 children sat in neat rows in the small schoolyard. Their eyes were wide with curiosity as I unrolled my calligraphy work, displaying the Chinese characters “sheng sheng bu xi” as my encouragement for the kids to grow healthily.
I read the words aloud and explained their meaning. I was touched as the children excitedly tried to imitate (模仿) me, showing their interest in my calligraphy and the Chinese language. The small yard was filled with their enthusiasm.
This happened during a field trip I took from July 1 to 9 as part of the Tsinghua University Global Competency Overseas Practicum Course. The course sent four teams to various countries as part of a summer program in 2024, and I was selected as a member of the team visiting Zimbabwe.
This small-scale, in-depth course wants to help students to have a global vision, facilitating future people-to-people connections.
During my time in Zimbabwe, I was pleasantly surprised to discover that my calligraphy talents played a significant role in cultural exchanges. One of the highlights was a forum (论坛) where we engaged in a series of activities with local artists. While my fellow team members sang Welcome to Beijing, I created four calligraphy pieces and presented these pieces on stage at the end of the song, receiving an enthusiastic response.
In addition to my performance at the forum I devoted time each evening to creating calligraphy tailored for the people we were to visit the next day. My efforts were well-received, as the Zimbabweans’ initial surprise at my calligraphy turned into delight, recognition, and gratitude after I explained the meanings to them. This gave me a sense of achievement and firsthand experience in cultural exchanges.
This experience in Zimbabwe has made me realize the power of art to bridge differences. These valuable connections will stay with me, inspiring me to continue sharing Chinese culture while remaining open to others.
4. How did the author feel about the children’s reaction?
A Curious. B. Interested. C. Impressed. D. Grateful.
5. What is one aim of the summer course?
A. To develop students’ life skills.
B. To connect with other universities.
C. To help students obtain a global vision.
D. To do voluntary work in poor countries.
6. What greatly helped deepen the relationship between the two countries?
A. Chinese songs. B. Teaching experience.
C. A sense of achievement. D. Chinese calligraphy.
7. What might be the author’s intention to write the text?
A. To share an unforgettable experience.
B. To call on people to care for children.
C. To stress the importance of international help.
D. To introduce a program of Tsinghua University.

In 2019, Coleman started taking online classes in a lesser-known language: Owens Valley Paiute. But it was not easy. Coleman is a member of the Big Pine Paiute Tribe of Owens Valley — and Paiute is his father’s ancestral language.
“My dad didn’t grow up speaking the language — like many families, it was forced out of use by boarding schools where speaking the language was forbidden. And there was no language-based language models (LLMs) to help me. But I’m lucky my great-grandparents sat down with scientists to document the language and to create recordings so I can hear their voices and words,” said Coleman.
ChatGPT and other LLMs exhibit human-level performance on many natural-language tasks in English, because one-fifth of the world speaks English. But Paiute is regarded as a “no-resource language”, meaning there are no publicly available Paiute sentences translated into English on which to train a machine learning model.
In a new paper, Coleman and his professor Krishnamachari propose a machine translation approach called LLM-RBMT (Rule-Based Machine Translation) to help people learn no-resource languages. In their method, the LLM does not translate into or from Owens Valley Paiute. Instead, it gives guidance to the rule-based translators, which rely on grammatical and vocabulary rules to translate between languages.
This method, said Coleman, mirrors how language learners naturally speak by mixing known and unknown words, making it a practical tool for real-world use. LLM’s remarkable general-purpose language skills make them a promising tool in helping revitalize (复兴) critically endangered languages.
Coleman also built and maintains a suite of digital tools related to language revitalization, named Kubishi or “brain” in Paiute, including an online dictionary, and a sentence-builder and translation system enabled by this research. For his part, Coleman credits his tribe’s members, past and present, for paving the path. “A lot of people in my tribe have been working for a long time on different language revitalization efforts, including classes, dictionaries, recordings,” said Coleman.
8. How did Coleman learn Paiute initially?
A. By turning to an LLM.
B. By taking a course at school.
C. By referring to printed documents.
D By hearing the created recordings.
9. Why did the author mention ChatGPT?
A. To indicate the progress of Al.
B. To show the popularity of English.
C. To recommend a language learning tool.
D. To stress the challenge of developing LLM-RBMT.
10. How does Coleman’s machine translation approach work?
A. It bases its performance on grammar rules.
B. It helps to guide the rule-based translators.
C. It corrects grammar mistakes during translation.
D. It directly translates Paiute into other languages.

Skincare experts and beauty lovers often say that we should be applying SPF (Sun Protection Factor) to our skin every day. When we apply sun cream it can reduce our risk of developing skin cancer, plus it also helps prevent skin ageing and age spots. But Dr. Karan Raj, a medical expert, weighed in with a slightly different take.
He says that some of us don't need to wear SPF every day — and explained why. Dr. Karan Raj said, “Your skin color will determine the degree or risk benefit relationship with sun expose and if you need to cream up those cheeks.”
Speaking about why some people should wear sun cream every day, Dr. Raj said, “It also depends why you're wearing sunscreen. Is it to lower your risk of skin cancer or to limit photo-ageing?”
He added, “If it's to limit photo-ageing you should probably wear sunscreen every day, no matter your skin tone. But if you're just concerned about lowering your risk of skin cancer, you can be more selective about wearing sunscreen.”
He commented, ""This is determined by your skin color and UV Index (紫外线指数) . Generally sunscreen is recommended when the UV Index is three and above. So if you've got pale, sun sensitive skin that turns you into a lobster (龙虾红) easily, or you've got darker white skin, olive or light brown skin and the UV Index is three and above, sunscreen should be part of your routine.”
The NHS doctor says that the UV Index of seven on a white male is a UV. less than minus (负的) one on a male with dark brown skin. He added: “So if you've got dark brown skin you probably don't need routine sunscreen unless you're going to be exposed to the sun for long periods of time, if the UV Index is way higher than expected, or specific medical indications.”
You can find out what the weather Index is each day by checking weather apps. In the UK, the UV Index rarely goes beyond 7. The doctor says those who are worried about their Vitamin D intake, all you need is 25 minutes of sun exposure a few times a week to “max out” your skin's natural Vitamin D product.
12. What does the underlined word “take” in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Way. B. Feature. C. View. D. Style.
13. According to Dr. Karan Raj, we should use sun cream every day .
A. to avoid skin ageing B. to prevent dust and dirt
C. to improve our makeup D. to reduce the risk of skin cancer
14. Which statement might Dr. Karan Raj agree with?
A. Sun rays won't cause the risk of skin cancer.
B. Dark color skin is not so sensitive to the UV.
C. The UV Index below 7 does no harm to skin.
D. Those lacking Vitamin D should use sun cream.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. What benefits does the sun cream offer?
B. How can you avoid the harm of the sun rays?
C. What is the link between skin color and UV Index?
D. Why is it unnecessary for some to wear sun cream every day?

The Practice of Buying More Books Than You Can Read
Are you one of us? Like to buy books but eventually leave them unread? The Japanese have a word for people like us: tsundoku. Doku comes from a verb that can be used for “reading”, while tsun means “to pile up”. ___16___.
It’s interesting to consider the future of books right now. We have e-readers, phones, and tablets, which means the fate (命运) for the printed page. We have tiny houses and a major minimalism (极简主义) movement. ___17___. We have increased awareness about resources and “stuff” in general: is there room for piles of bound paper in the modern world?
I am a minimalist. ___18___. And I think that transferring my tsundoku to a list of digital editions rather than a pile of physical ones might be the way to go. However, the truth is, I love to hold a book in hand. Real books that one can hold in the hand are one of the things that I am unwilling to abandon. ___19___. I love being able to easily turn back a few pages to reread a sentence. And maybe, I love buying books that I don’t seem to actually read. But, I can also buy used books, saving them from the landfill and giving them a home.
___20___. I will resist fast fashion and unsustainable food and a bunch of plastic litter that I don’t need. And in return, I will allow myself to engage in some tsundoku. Besides, it’s not actually a waste because I’m going to get to that pile of books someday.

B. However, I would give up useless books
C. So here’s the deal I've made with myself

Spy Run
“It can’t be done!” Mr. Geiger hit the table with his fist. “I’ve carried messages for the captain before. But not this time! The enemy soldiers crowd into the woods. Our rider will be caught.” Emily watched her father as he paced the floor. Two neighbors nodded.
“Could a girl? Maybe they wouldn’t stop me?” asked Emily.
“You’re a child, Emily,” one man said gently. “You would be afraid.”
“I am not a child!” Emily cried out. “I’m thirteen, and I’m not afraid!”
“You don’t understand the danger.” said the other neighbor. Emily shook her head. She knew how risky the trip could be. The Geigers and their friends wanted to protect their country and drive the enemy away. But there were some enemy soldiers disguising (乔装打扮)themselves and spying in the surrounding areas.
Mr. Geiger looked at his daughter, saying nothing. He didn’t want Emily to take this risk. But no one else was more suitable. “Tell Sumter to meet me here tomorrow night.” He drew a small map, added a sentence, and handed Emily the paper. “Give this to Sumter by tomorrow noon. If you’re late, he won’t reach the captain in time.”
Ten minutes later, Emily began her ride with the map safely hidden deep inside her dress. She had never ridden so far alone. But she didn’t worry about getting lost. She was more worried that someone would stop her and grab the map.
By midday, the air grew hot. Emily stopped at a stream. While her horse grazed (吃草), Emily rested and ate. Then the sound of a deep voice made her jump and turn.
“What are you doing here?” Emily felt nervous as she stared up at two enemy soldiers. “I’m…” Emily didn’t know how to answer. If she lied, her face would turn red and they would know it. But she dared not tell the truth.
“We’ll take her to camp and find a woman to search her,” one soldier said. Then Emily was taken to their camp where they locked her in a small cottage and her horse was tied to a tree.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Looking around the cottage, Emily wondered how to handle the map before being searched.

“Young lady, you can leave now,” a voice called outside the cottage.
