B Zong Qinghou, the rags-to-riches founder of one of China’s biggest beverage makers, who was once China’s richest man, died of an illness on Sunday at the age of 79, his company Hangzhou Wahaha Group said in a brief statement. In China, Zong was known as a legendary businessman who grew his soft drinks empire from a tricycle cart hawking（沿街叫卖） ice pops to school kids into a large company selling everything from milk drinks to bottled water and canned porridge. Zong was also recognized as a national hero for wrestling the full control of Wahaha, which means “laughing child”, from its French partner Danone more than a decade ago. Victory in that bitter battle boosted Zong’s wealth to $8 billion, making him China’s richest man in 2010 and again in 2012, according to Forbes. His death was mourned across China. Condolences（吊唁） poured in from remarkable Chinese entrepreneurs including Alibaba co-founder Jack Ma and Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun. Wahaha employees and residents in the eastern city of Hangzhou laid flowers outside the company. The beverage giant’s rise came to represent the can-do spirit of China’s first generation of private entrepreneurs, who helped accelerate the country’s explosive economic growth in the years after they capitalized on market reforms in the late 1970s. Despite his wealth, Zong was known for his simple lifestyle, which set him apart from many of China’s new rich. He was nicknamed “the richest man in cloth shoes” for always sporting plain black shoes. In an interview with the state-run People’s Daily in 2010, Zong said the title and wealth had brought little change to his life. “Every day, I still smoke two packs of cigarettes that cost 12 yuan （then $1.80） each, have two cups of tea, and eat my three meals at the company canteen,” he said. He was known for starting work around 7 am and not leaving the office until 11 pm, working for more than 12 hours a day long before the tiring “996” work schedule became common. 24．Zong Qinghou was praised as a national hero because of his ______. A．stimulating China’s economy B．becoming China’s richest man in 2010 C．teaming up with the French partner Danone D．completely dominating Wahaha by beating Danone 25．What can we infer from Zong Qinghou’s rags-to-riches legend? A．His soft drinks empire was established overnight. B．Embracing the changes in policies benefited him. C．His perseverance played a decisive role in China’s economic growth. D．His family background and people skills contributed to his success. 26．The interview with Zong Qinghou in 2010 can show that ______. A．he stayed true to himself B．he brought fame and fortune to people C．he gave in to the temptation of wealth D．he pioneered the “996” work schedule 27．According to the text, which of the following best describes Zong Qinghou? A．Respectful and optimistic. B．Influential and enterprising. C．Generous and aggressive. D．Talented and economical. C Clear winners are hard to pick in the race to develop self-driving vehicles, but autonomous trucks have built a convincing lead. Robotrucks have completed thousands of automated journeys and a new era of driverless delivery appears to lie in store for the world. Big-name vehicle manufacturers like Daimler, alongside AV（autonomous vehicle）innovators like Aurorae have sunk billions of dollars into making self-driving trucks work, which is a solid investment in road freight（货运）. Fitted with complex LIDAR road scanning systems, computer vision, and AI predictive software, the vehicles serve the so-called “middle mile” between distribution centers, where loads are picked up and dropped off for human drivers to complete deliveries to homes and businesses. Texas, with its spacious highways, prosperous road freight market, and relaxed regulations, provides ideal conditions to road test the trucks. Other states have their own regulations in place to allow AV testing on public roads. There are six levels of vehicle automation（from 0 to 5） and level five—full autonomy, drive anywhere—is the end goal. Autonomous journeys often run at level four, which turns out safe, with a backup driver in the cab ready to take control in case an accident happens. In December 2021 a level 4 semi-truck drove 80 miles on public roads, between a railyard in Tucson, Arizona, and a distribution center in Phoenix. Analysts say that up to 90 percent of long-distance trucking jobs could be lost to self-driving technology once it becomes widespread. Safety is another concern. Questions of whether authorities are ready to deal with the new technology followed a crash between a Waymo Via class 8 truck and another human-driven semi-truck near Ennis, Texas. The human driver was at fault, but the safety operator in the Waymo truck did not take control during the incident and a report exposed the weaknesses of the way the crash was dealt with. AV industry representatives say their vehicles with self-driving technology are safer and more efficient than cars driven by people and will improve road safety. But doubts from road safety campaigners, transport workers, and city authorities exist about rapid change without stricter controls. All agree that new laws will be necessary. 28．What is paragraph 3 of the text mainly about? A．The complex system of the vehicles. B．The process of picking up and dropping off loads. C．Ways of completing deliveries to homes and businesses. D．The function of autonomous vehicles in road freight. 29．What does the example mentioned in paragraph 5 prove? A．More often than not, trucks running at level 4 are secure. B．Levels of vehicle automation serve different purposes. C．“Full autonomy, drive anywhere” is the ultimate target. D．A backup driver in the cab is crucial in avoiding an accident. 30．What is the author’s attitude toward the self-driving technology? A．Unclear. B．Approving. C．Objective. D．Dismissive. 31．What can be a suitable title for the text? A．The Evolution and Implications of Self-Driving Vehicles B．Robotrucks to Deliver a New Era of Driverless Technology C．A Solid Investment from Big-Name Vehicle Manufacturers D．The Testing of Autonomous Trucks on Public Roads with Level 4 D We live in the age of the short attention span. And yet: Finding a recipe in a post requires first scrolling past a “novel” detailing the chef’s personal experience with the dish. Even platforms once known for short-form media are stretching the limits: YouTube videos once were within 10 minutes; now they can and do reach 12 hours. Even TikTok is going long, reportedly testing a new limit of up to 15 minutes for some creators. Surely some of this is born of genuine audience interest. Length, after all, is sometimes associated with quality. Sometimes, storytelling deserves a surprising length. Other times, it does not. Online media are frequently lengthened not because the subject demands it but because creators are attempting to game algorithms（算法） to make more money. Algorithms, on the most basic level, are supposed to recommend whatever else people post online. Yet in the process, they end up encouraging people to generate a lot of junk. Some of these apps seem to realize what they’ve done. TikTok and YouTube give users the ability to speed things up. But the solution only underscores the problem. Because it gives rise to all those ads that run before videos or between paragraphs. Any extra real estate for these ads, be it space on a page or time on a podcast, is a chance for platforms to make more money. Some algorithms may in fact prioritize length as an indicator of quality. But it’s hard to say for sure, because tech companies tend not to give many details about their inner workings. In some ways, whether an algorithm prefers longer videos matters less than whether creators think an algorithm does. If people start believing that longer videos do “better”, they’ll make more of them. People are afraid that generative AI will pollute the Internet. But social-media and search algorithms have been doing that for years. It’s even cheaper and easier for generative AI to produce long content. All of this is just a taste of what’s to come. 32．How does the author introduce the topic? A．By telling stories. B．By referring to studies. C．By giving examples. D．By offering personal experience. 33．Why do the online media creators often lengthen their content? A．To enhance their storytelling abilities. B．To take advantage of algorithms for profit. C．To gather data concerning popular subjects. D．To provide the audience with interesting ideas. 34．What does the underlined word “underscores” mean in paragraph 3? A．Highlights. B．Upgrades. C．Overlooks. D．Forecasts. 35．What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs? A．Algorithms are sure to pick out longer videos. B．The development of AI will facilitate longer content. C．The best content is lengthened by video producers. D．Search algorithms are easily polluted and destroyed. 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） Parents everywhere praise their kids. Jenn Berman, author of The A to Z Guide to Raising Happy, Confident Kids, says, “We’ve gone to the opposite extreme of a few decades ago when parents tended to be more strict.” By giving kids a lot of praise, parents think they’re building their children’s confidence, when, in fact, it may be just the opposite. 36 Still, don’t go too far in the other direction. 37 Kids will feel like they’re not good enough or that you don’t care and, as a result, may see no point in trying hard for their accomplishments. So what is the right amount of praise? 38 If praise is focused on the effort not the outcome, you can give it as often as your kid does something deserving a verbal（口头的）reward. For example, when a kid comes home excited with a great mark, say, “You deserve it! Your devotion and perseverance paid off.” 39 Besides, remember to praise sincerely. Kids are more perceptive（有感知力的） than many adults realize, and they often can tell the difference between sincere and insincere praise. When kids sense your praise insincere, they assume you feel sorry for them or don’t understand them. 40 A．By highlighting their hard work, we are teaching them that effort matters. B．If this is the case, they will dismiss the praise, making it ineffective. C．Not giving enough praise can be just as damaging as giving too much. D．Too much praise can backfire and even make kids afraid to try new things. E．Experts say that the quality of praise is more important than the quantity. F．If so, they will be convinced that sincere praise is truly vital for their growth. G．Verbally praising kids can boost their confidence and encourage positive behaviors. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） “Why do you always apologize before you ask a question?” my colleague, Dan asked. I looked at him 41 , not understanding what he meant but felt that there was more than a trace of 42 in his tone. “There’s no reason for it; you shouldn’t do that,” he said. “Sorry if it annoys you,” I responded. I probably annoyed him again by 43 again. This happened over 35 years ago, but I still 44 it now. Asking questions in conversation isn’t that 45 , at least not to me. I figured out some 46 . The first was self-consciousness and insecurity. Had I missed something the professor said? I knew some students, as a result of such 47 , didn’t ask questions. I had enough confidence to ask, but not enough to not 48 the way of asking. I don’t think it occurred to me at the time, but it did years later, that it also probably related to being 49 . I knew that a woman was always told there was a line of not 50 others too aggressively. Besides, I became conscious of not implying 51 —I didn’t want a professor to think I was questioning their expertise, or suggesting they were a 52 teacher. It seemed like a reasonable strategy to start by 53 that I was wrong or uninformed. Before Dan’s comment, I hadn’t thought about it 54 , and much less considered that there could be a 55 while doing it. But I was learning that there was, and it could be unpleasant. Fortunately, I think I’ve done it less now. 41．A．blankly B．sadly C．hopefully D．impatiently 42．A．concern B．annoyance C．excitement D．relief 43．A．arguing B．resisting C．escaping D．apologizing 44．A．account for B．reflect on C．call for D．take up 45．A．simple B．surprising C．clear D．logical 46．A．choices B．decisions C．reasons D．actions 47．A．doubt B．loss C．achievement D．plan 48．A．strengthen B．soften C．change D．keep 49．A．weak B．positive C．female D．reasonable 50．A．impressing B．fighting C．chasing D．blaming 51．A．approval B．defence C．connection D．judgment 52．A．bad B．lazy C．responsible D．creative 53．A．refusing B．insisting C．denying D．acknowledging 54．A．crazily B．fast C．consciously D．bitterly 55．A．failure B．disadvantage C．virtue D．barrier 第二节 （共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分） Sitting on a lounge chair（躺椅） in her studio in northwest London, Duan Yiran, the 56 （found） of a handcrafts workshop promoting the traditional indigo dyeing（靛蓝染色）technique, admits actually she used to hate the craft. As a member of the Bai ethnic group, she was born and raised in Dali city, Southwest China’s Yunnan province. 57 one time, in her village, nearly every household boasted members who mastered the tie-dyeing（扎染）technique. Duan’s family also ran 58 company that produced handwoven, hand-dyed fabrics. To tie-dye pieces of cloth, people use needles and threads to create different 59 （fold）in the fabrics before putting them in dye vats（大缸） several times. 60 （typical）, the vats contain sky-blue-colored dye 61 （obtain） from plants. Unfolding the fabric s reveals beautiful patterns, such as geometric shapes and flowers.
