Here are four ideas from the literary world that may bring about your own adventures. 1. Louisa May Alcott, Concord, Massachusetts For decades, young readers have been attracted by the adventures detailed in the novel of Little Women. We have the option to visit the home of Louisa May Alcott, the novelist who composed the story around the relationships within her own family. You can take a guided tour and get a view of how the characters’ family lived in the home known as Orchard House. Many of the family’ s treasures remain in the well-preserved structure. 2. Zane Grey’s America Best-selling novelist Zane Grey created strong stories detailing the life and culture of the American West. Through titles like Call of the Canyon, Riders of the Purple Sage and The Thundering Herd, Grey’s tales inspired many to explore a new country. Visit his birthplace in Zanesville, Ohio. You can also visit a copy of his Arizona cottage (the original burned in a 1990 wildfire), which served as his home base while exploring and writing. 3. Where the Wild Things Are Why not use this creative book as the centerpiece of a wild and wonderful weekend with the kids? Read Maurice Sendak’s colourful book, then visit your local park, or walk through a nearby forest and discuss the adventures of young Max, the main character. End the weekend by streaming the Spike Jonze movie of the same name. The whole family will enjoy the mix of real actors and computer cartoons. 4. Jack London, Glen Ellen, California Channel the adventuresome spirit of one of the planet’s most inspired writers with a plan to explore more than 26 miles of hiking, horseback and cycling trails across 1, 400 acres in the Sonoma Valley.

Here are four ideas from the literary world that may bring about your own adventures.(一本好书可以把我们带到神奇的地方。这里有四个来自文学世界的想法，可能会给你带来自己的冒险)”可知，文章的目的是激发与文学相关的冒险。故选C。 B About once a week, a veterinarian (兽医) Kwane Stewart heads down to San Diego’s East Village to make his rounds, serving the dogs, cats and birds who are the treasured pets of downtown’s homeless community. Stewart’s parents were huge animal lovers. By age 6, he knew he wanted to be a vet. After graduation from a Colorado veterinary science program, he spent the next decade as a veterinarian. In 2008, he worked as head veterinarian at a country-run animal shelter in an area struck by the Great Recession. He saw pets abandoned and the work was extremely depressing. Four years into the shelter job, Stewart said he was burned out with guilt and ready to quit. Then one morning on his way to work, he saw a homeless man and a dog. He treated the dog’s skin condition and the animal was transformed. The owner was beyond grateful and said, “Thanks for not ignoring me and for treating my dog.” “That was the moment for me. I got back to saving animals and doing it on my own terms.” Stewart said. A few weeks later he set up a pop-up veterinary clinic at a soup kitchen, and when clients there suggested he take his services further, his new job as “Street Vet” began. In addition to treating common diseases, Stewart often provides vaccinations (接种疫苗) and general wellness checks. He also promotes “fear-free” pet care. Many of the people Stewart serves are not just grateful for the help but also form a deep bond with him, seeing him as someone who not only treats their pets but also acknowledges their humanity. “I can dream a little bit that people from all over the world will want to emulate what I do. ”Stewart said. Right now, he is building a network of trusted volunteers, technicians with hospitals and clinics. “These are all people who just reached out and said, ‘I’m inspired by what you do. How do I do it?’” he said. 4. What do we know about Steward’s current job? A He runs an animal shelter. B. He adopts abandoned pets. C. He works for a science program. D. He attends to homeless people's pets. 5. Why is Stewart’s shelter job mentioned? A. To explain his change of career focus. B. To illustrate his professional competence. C. To explore the future of the industry. D. To reflect the challenges of the profession, 6. What do many people think of Steward? A. He’s odd. B. He’s frank. C. He’s humble. D. He’s merciful. 7. What does the underlined word “emulate” in the last paragraph mean? A. Follow the example of. B. Show respect for. C. Put the blame on. D. Pay attention to. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. D 7. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了斯图尔特在大学毕业后成为一名兽医，后来因为工作原因，他开始为流浪人群的宠物提供治疗，并获得了很大的反响。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“About once a week, a veterinarian Kwane Stewart heads down to San Diego’s East Village to make his rounds, serving the dogs, cats and birds who are the treasured pets of downtown's homeless community. (大约每周一次，兽医克瓦恩·斯图尔特前往圣地亚哥的东村巡视，为市中心无家可归者社区珍爱的宠物狗、猫和鸟提供服务。)”可知，斯图尔特目前的工作是照料无家可归者的宠物。故选D项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“He saw pets abandoned and the work was extremely depressing. Four years into the shelter job, Stewart said he was burned out with guilt and ready to quit.( 他看到宠物被遗弃，工作非常令人沮丧。在收容所工作了四年后，斯图尔特说他感到内疚，准备辞职。)”以及第三段“Then one morning on his way to work, he saw a homeless man and a dog. He treated the dog's skin condition and the animal was transformed. The owner was beyond grateful and said, “Thanks for not ignoring me and for treating my dog. ” “That was the moment for me. I got back to saving animals and doing it on my own terms. ” Stewart said.( 一天早上，在他上班的路上，他看到一个无家可归的人和一条狗。他治疗了狗的皮肤状况，这只动物被治疗了。主人非常感激地说：“谢谢你没有忽视我，还照顾我的狗。”“对我来说就是那个时刻。我重新开始拯救动物，并按照自己的方式去做。”斯图尔特说。)”和第四段中“A few weeks later he set up a pop-up veterinary clinic at a soup kitchen, and when clients there suggested he take his services further, his new job as “Street Vet” began.(几周后，他在一个施舍处开了一家临时兽医诊所，当那里的客户建议他进一步提供服务时，他的新工作“街头兽医”开始了。)”可推知，文章先讲述斯图尔特在动物收容所的工作经历，因看到宠物被遗弃而感到沮丧，几乎要辞职。之后遇到一位无家可归者和他的狗，给狗治疗后，斯图尔特决定以自己的方式拯救动物，开启了街头兽医的工作。所以提及收容所工作是为了解释他职业重心的转变。故选A项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“Many of the people Stewart serves are not just grateful for the help but also form a deep bond with him, seeing him as someone who not only treats their pets but also acknowledges their humanity.( 斯图尔特服务的许多人不仅感激他的帮助，而且还与他建立了深厚的联系，认为他不仅善待他们的宠物，而且承认他们的人性。)”可推知，斯图尔特不仅治疗宠物还尊重无家可归者，可见人们认为他仁慈善良。故选D项。 【7题详解】 词义猜测题。根据最后一段中“Right now, he is building a network of trusted volunteers, technicians with hospitals and clinics. “These are all people who just reached out and said, ‘I’ m inspired by what you do. How do I do it?’” he said.( 现在，他正在建立一个由值得信赖的志愿者、医院和诊所的技术人员组成的网络。“这些人都愿意提供提援助，说，‘我被你所做的事情所鼓舞。我该怎么做呢？’”他说。)”可知，很多人受斯图尔特启发，询问如何做，说明他希望人们效仿他的做法。“emulate”意思是 “效仿，模仿”，和A选项Follow the example of“效仿”意思相近。 故选A项。 C A wave of startups say seaweed is a solution to climate change - able to absorb atmospheric carbon, provide raw materials for biofuels, and feed the world - no fertilizers (化肥), fresh water, or even land required. Running Tide, a Maine-based company, is working on a system that will eventually sink the buoys (浮标), attached with long locks of seaweed, to the deep ocean floor, where the carbon they contain will remain stored for 800 years or more. Running Tide was founded by Marty Odlin, an engineer and fourth-generation commercial fisherman. The Gulf of Maine is warming faster than nearly every other oceanic region, and Odlin has seen the changes firsthand. About 15 years ago, Odlin heard a talk from Klaus Lackner - the physicist who popularised the idea of removing carbon from the atmosphere. It clicked. “It was like, oh, this is right because there’s no way we ’ re going to get off fossil (化石的) fuels in the next 50 years, ” he recalls thinking. “We’ re going to have to pull it down.” Using seaweed to draw down carbon would be an elegant solution - if it works. Seaweed forests collectively cover an estimated two million square kilometers and absorb as much carbon as the Amazon rainforest. But much of that storage is short-lived. When the seaweed is harvested, eaten by animals, or washes ashore, its stored carbon is released back into the atmosphere. Running Tide’s model, in theory at least, would take that stored carbon and sink it to the ocean floor where it would remain for centuries, breaking down slowly. Some scientists are careful about rushing ahead before fundamental scientific, environmental, and regulatory questions are answered. “Climate change is intensifying, and people are panicking, ”says Kristen Davis, a professor of University of California Irvine, “but the science is not there yet to actually confirm that it’s a good idea. ” 8. What can we learn about Running Tide's system? A. It removes carbon from seaweed. B It turns seaweed into fertilizers. C. It sinks seaweed into the ocean floor. D. It stores seaweed as food sources. 9. What did Lackner's speech lead Odlin to do? A. Monitor changes in oceanic regions. B. Reduce commercial fishing industry. C. Set restrictions on the use of fossil fuels. D. Remove carbon from the atmosphere. 10. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. Steps of a carbon replacement method. B. The underlying logic of sinking seaweeds. C. Examples of massive seaweed forests. D. The carbon absorbing ability of seaweeds. 11. Why does the author quote Kristen Davis? A. To prove Odlin's opinion. B. To emphasise the climate crisis. C. To advocate scientists' cooperation. D. To present the issue objectively. 【答案】8 C 9. D 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了利用海藻对抗气候变化的新兴创业项目和其背后的科学原理、挑战及专家观点。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段的“Running Tide, a Maine-based company, is working on a system that will eventually sink the buoys (浮标), attached with long locks of seaweed, to the deep ocean floor (总部位于缅因州的奔潮公司正在研究一种系统，该系统最终将这些附着着长串海藻的浮标沉入海底)”可知，该系统会将海草沉入海底。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段的“About 15 years ago, Odlin heard a talk from Klaus Lackner - the physicist who popularized the idea of removing carbon from the atmosphere. It clicked. ‘It was like, oh, this is right because there’s no way we’re going to get off fossil fuels in the next 50 years,’ he recalls thinking. ‘We’re going to have to pull it down.’ (大约15年前，Odlin听了物理学家Klaus Lackner的演讲，Lackner普及了从大气中去除碳的想法。Odlin听后觉得很有道理，认为在接下来的50年里，我们无法摆脱化石燃料，因此我们必须从大气中去除碳。)”可知，Lackner的演讲促使Odlin想要从大气中去除碳。故选D。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段内容“Using seaweed to draw down carbon would be an elegant solution - if it works. Seaweed forests collectively cover an estimated two million square kilometers and absorb as much carbon as the Amazon rainforest. But much of that storage is short-lived. When the seaweed is harvested, eaten by animals, or washes ashore, its stored carbon is released back into the atmosphere. Running Tide’s model, in theory at least, would take that stored carbon and sink it to the ocean floor where it would remain for centuries, breaking down slowly. (使用海藻来减少碳排放将是一个优雅的解决方案——如果它有效的话。海藻林总共覆盖了大约200万平方公里，吸收的碳与亚马逊雨林一样多。但是大部分的储存都是短暂的。当海藻被收割、被动物吃掉或被冲上岸时，其储存的碳被释放回大气中。至少在理论上，奔流大潮的模型会把储存的碳带到海底，在那里它们可以保存数百年，慢慢分解。)”可知，这段主要讲述了下沉海藻的基本逻辑，B选项“海藻下沉的潜在逻辑”可以概括本段的主要内容。故选B。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段的“Some scientists are careful about rushing ahead before fundamental scientific, environmental, and regulatory questions are answered. ‘Climate change is intensifying, and people are panicking,’ says Kristen Davis, a professor of University of California Irvine, ‘but the science is not there yet to actually confirm that it’s a good idea.’ (一些科学家对在基本的科学、环境和监管问题得到解答之前仓促行动持谨慎态度。加州大学欧文分校教授克里斯汀•戴维斯说，气候变化正在加剧，人们感到恐慌，但科学还没有真正证实这是个好想法。)”可知，克里斯汀•戴维斯指出一些基础科学、环境和监管问题未解决前就匆忙推进利用海草解决气候变化问题并不明智，因为科学依据还不足，所以作者引用她的话是为了从另一个角度客观地呈现这一问题，避免只强调利用海草解决问题的积极面。故选D。 D Wearables are back in the spotlight in 2024, becoming one of the trendiest topics in the tech world. Beyond tracking steps, heart rate and blood-oxygen levels, future wearable devices will take the form of smart glasses or futuristic spectacles (眼镜), reflecting the tech industry's drive to integrate artificial intelligence (AI) into these innovative devices. As reported by The Information, tech companies including OpenAI, Meta, Google and Snapchat are all competing to launch AI-powered smart glasses that respond intelligently to users’ visual input. Earlier this year, Snapchat previewed its revolutionary (革命性的) AI-powered glasses with camera and video functions, Meta has introduced experimental AI object recognition in Ray-Ban smart spectacles, which could answer questions like “Is this a tea caffeine-tree?” by taking a photo and analysing it. The power behind this revolution lies in the new multimodal AI technology, which creates responses by integrating multiple sources of data including images, texts, and other forms of data. It expands on most users’ experiences of using text-only AI chatbots and would be a natural fit for smart spectacles with front-looking cameras. However, AI systems aren’t all-powerful and still have many shortcomings. During testing, Meta’s Ray-Ban smart spectacles were found to “hallucinate”, seeing-things that weren’t really there. There are also legal concerns surrounding these devices. Small companies may find it difficult to manage employees using AI-powered face-worn cameras. The business risks are complex. Google faced similar trouble with its Glass device, being questioned by authorities on privacy issues. If new smart glasses become popular, such problems will reappear. Despite these challenges, the wearable AI revolution holds great promise. New opportunities should crop up for small businesses to develop adaptable apps and access the growing wearables market. With an estimated annual growth rate of nearly 15 percent until 2030, the global wearables market is expected to outperform that of the smartphones. As this revolutionary technology unfolds, it will be interesting to see how it shapes our lives and businesses. 12. How does the author demonstrate the new trend of wearables? A. By reporting findings. B. By using examples. C. By making comparisons. D. By raising questions. 13. What makes the revolution possible? A. AI’s capability to process multimodal data. B. Smart devices’ fast response speed. C. AI’s advance in object recognition. D. Front-looking cameras’ accuracy. 14. What is a major concern in developing the wearables? A. Lack in technical innovation. B. Limit on spectacle glasses` clarity. C. Security of personal information. D. Comfort level of device wearing. 15. What is the passage mainly about? A. Impact of AI on smart devices. B. Prospect of Al-driven wearables. C. Growth of the global tech industry. D. Argument of smart glasses technology. 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了可穿戴设备的未来，以及目前所面临的挑战。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Earlier this year, Snapchat previewed its revolutionary (革命性的) AI-powered glasses with camera and video functions, Meta has introduced experimental AI object recognition in Ray-Ban smart spectacles, which could answer questions like “Is this a tea caffeine-tree?” by taking a photo and analysing it. (今年早些时候，Snapchat预览了其具有相机和视频功能的革命性人工智能眼镜，Meta在雷朋智能眼镜中引入了实验性的人工智能物体识别，可以回答诸如“这是茶咖啡因树吗？”通过拍照和分析。)”可推知，作者是通过举例来展示可穿戴设备的新趋势。故选B项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“The power behind this revolution lies in the new multimodal AI technology, which creates responses by integrating multiple sources of data including images, texts, and other forms of data.( 这场革命背后的力量在于新的多模式人工智能技术，该技术通过整合包括图像、文本和其他形式的数据在内的多个数据源来创建响应。)”可知，人工智能处理多模式数据的能力让这场革命成为可能。故选A项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“There are also legal concerns surrounding these devices. Small companies may find it difficult to manage employees using AI-powered face-worn cameras. The business risks are complex. Google faced similar trouble with its Glass device, being questioned by authorities on privacy issues. If new smart glasses become popular, such problems will reappear.( 这些设备也存在法律问题。小公司可能会发现很难管理使用人工智能面部摄像头的员工。商业风险是复杂的。谷歌的谷歌眼镜也遇到了类似的问题，在隐私问题上受到了当局的质疑。如果新的智能眼镜流行起来，这样的问题将再次出现。)”可知，开发可穿戴设备的主要关注点是个人信息安全。故选C项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及最后一段中“Despite these challenges, the wearable AI revolution holds great promise. New opportunities should crop up for small businesses to develop adaptable apps and access the growing wearables market. With an estimated annual growth rate of nearly 15 percent until 2030, the global wearables market is expected to outperform that of the smartphones.( 尽管存在这些挑战，可穿戴人工智能革命仍充满希望。对于小型企业来说，开发适应性强的应用程序并进入不断增长的可穿戴设备市场应该会出现新的机会。据估计，到2030年，全球可穿戴设备市场的年增长率将接近15%，预计将超过智能手机市场。)”可知，这篇文章主要讲的是人工智能驱动可穿戴设备的前景。故选B项。 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。 I always admired my grandmother Jenny’ s gardening skills.

I read books, went to workshops, and asked experienced gardeners in my community for advice.(我给植物浇了太多的水，却忘了照料土壤。这是一次学习的经历。但我没有放弃。相反，我把这些时刻看作是学习的机会。我读书，参加研讨会，向社区里有经验的园丁寻求建议)”可知，后文提到作者给植物浇了太多的水，却忘了照料土壤，说明一开始园艺过程并不顺利。故C选项“然而，我第一次尝试园艺并不顺利”符合语境，故选C。 【19题详解】 根据上文“Yet, Mother Nature can be unpredictable. from unbearable heat to unexpected frosts. I lost some of my favorite plants due to extreme weathers.(然而，大自然母亲是不可预测的。从难以忍受的高温到意想不到的霜冻。由于极端天气，我失去了一些我最喜欢的植物)”以及后文“I used drought-tolerant plants and protective coverings like shade cloths and frost blankets to help my strong plants grow.(我使用了耐旱植物和保护性覆盖物，如遮阳布和防冻毯，以帮助我的强壮植物生长)”可知，上文提到因为极端天气作者失去了一些最喜欢的植物，后文则说明作者使用了保持措施，说明作者开始考虑到天气因素，故G选项“但我开始种植时考虑到了气候，而不是心烦意乱”符合语境，故选G。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Gardening is a lifelong journey of learning.(园艺是一生的学习之旅)”以及后文“It’s like finding a hidden library, where each plant and plot offers something new to discover.(这就像找到一个隐藏的图书馆，在那里，每一棵植物和每一片土地都提供了新的发现)”可知，上文提到园艺是一生的学习之旅，且比喻成图书馆，说明园艺需要不断学习、不断发现的特点，故F选项“它总是在变化，需要我们对新知识保持开放的心态”符合语境，故选F。 第二部分 (共两节，满分30分) 第一节 完形填空(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从各题所给的A、B、C和D 四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 In India, ironing vendors (熨衣小贩) travel around with iron boxes full of hot coals which they use to iron clothes.

Everyone was worried. “Does this mean our swim team is canceled?” Noah asked. Coach Abby comforted us, saying we’d still practice, but she wasn’t sure how the meets would be funded. The next morning, practice felt strange. None of us were swimming our best, and even Coach Abby was worried. During a break, Noah suggested, “If we can’t run the Snack Bar, maybe we can think of other ways to raise money. ” “Good idea. ” said Ruby. She suggested a karaoke sing-along (卡拉 OK) like what her brother did to raise funds for his school singing club. Tamara recommended a bake sale. “A. fall festival would be fun!” I added, thinking we could have water-themed games on grounds by the swimming pool. At first, Coach Abby hesitated. But when she saw how excited we were, she agreed, “OK! Let’ s go for it!” We quickly began brainstorming ideas for our Support for Pool Party. “I’ll bring my karaoke machine. ” Ruby offered. “We could make the microphone look like a fish!” someone added. I suggested a “Fun in the Sun” lemonade stand, and everyone jumped in to help. Soon, we had a plan for the best fundraiser ever, complete with a starfish cookie bake sale. We were ready to make it happen! We spent so much time getting everything ready and talking up our fundraiser to everyone we met that we were positive it would be a great success. The day before our big event, I was squeezing lemons for lemonade when I saw a very dark cloud outside the kitchen window. “Uh-oh! That’s not a rain cloud, is it?” I asked my mom. “Rain would be a disaster! It could ruin everything. ” “You know what they say, ” she answered. “Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst. ” “Hmm, ” I said. 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。 The next day, I arrived at the pool grounds early. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Facing the sudden rain, we were relieved that we had prepared the big umbrellas. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 The next day, I arrived at the pool grounds early. People were already starting to arrive, their faces filled with anticipation. The atmosphere was electric with excitement. The lemonade stand was bustling, with people lining up to taste our “Fun in the Sun” special. Tamara’s starfish cookies were a huge hit, disappearing almost as quickly as they were put out. Unluckily, clouds started to gather. Before we knew it, the rain was pouring down, making it difficult for everyone to seek shelter near the pool. Facing the sudden rain, we were relieved that we had prepared the big umbrellas. Quickly, we set them up over the karaoke machine, lemonade stand, and bake sale tables. Despite the weather, people didn’t seem to mind. They huddled under the umbrellas, continuing to enjoy the activities and support our cause. By the end of the day, we had made more money than we had ever imagined, and everyone left with a smile on their face. It was a reminder that with preparation, creativity, and a positive attitude, even the worst-case scenarios can turn into unforgettable successes. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者的游泳队一直在泳池场地开小吃店，为游泳比赛和设备筹集资金。然而某天艾比教练告诉小吃店将关闭维修。为此队员们想到了海星饼干烘烤义卖活动，大家也一起帮忙售卖。活动当天，生意很好，虽然下了大雨，但是他们早有准备，最后赚够了钱。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“第二天，我早早地到了泳池场地”可知，第一段可描写他们活动开展的情况以及突然下起了雨的场景。 ②由第二段首句内容“面对突如其来的雨，我们松了一口气，因为我们准备了大雨伞”可知，第二段可描写他们准备了伞来应对大雨，活动圆满完成。 2.续写线索：到达场地——活动开始——突然下雨——拿出雨伞——活动继续——活动完成——作者感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①开始：start/begin ②寻找：seek/look for ③介意：mind/care about 情绪类 ①期待：anticipation/expectation ②激动：excitement/thrill 【点睛】[高分句型1] Before we knew it, the rain was pouring down, making it difficult for everyone to seek shelter near the pool.

End the weekend by streaming the Spike Jonze movie of the same name. The whole family will enjoy the mix of real actors and computer cartoons. 4. Jack London, Glen Ellen, California Channel the adventuresome spirit of one of the planet’s most inspired writers with a plan to explore more than 26 miles of hiking, horseback and cycling trails across 1, 400 acres in the Sonoma Valley.

B About once a week, a veterinarian (兽医) Kwane Stewart heads down to San Diego’s East Village to make his rounds, serving the dogs, cats and birds who are the treasured pets of downtown’s homeless community. Stewart’s parents were huge animal lovers. By age 6, he knew he wanted to be a vet. After graduation from a Colorado veterinary science program, he spent the next decade as a veterinarian. In 2008, he worked as head veterinarian at a country-run animal shelter in an area struck by the Great Recession. He saw pets abandoned and the work was extremely depressing. Four years into the shelter job, Stewart said he was burned out with guilt and ready to quit. Then one morning on his way to work, he saw a homeless man and a dog. He treated the dog’s skin condition and the animal was transformed. The owner was beyond grateful and said, “Thanks for not ignoring me and for treating my dog.” “That was the moment for me. I got back to saving animals and doing it on my own terms.” Stewart said. A few weeks later he set up a pop-up veterinary clinic at a soup kitchen, and when clients there suggested he take his services further, his new job as “Street Vet” began. In addition to treating common diseases, Stewart often provides vaccinations (接种疫苗) and general wellness checks. He also promotes “fear-free” pet care. Many of the people Stewart serves are not just grateful for the help but also form a deep bond with him, seeing him as someone who not only treats their pets but also acknowledges their humanity. “I can dream a little bit that people from all over the world will want to emulate what I do. ”Stewart said.

C A wave of startups say seaweed is a solution to climate change - able to absorb atmospheric carbon, provide raw materials for biofuels, and feed the world - no fertilizers (化肥), fresh water, or even land required. Running Tide, a Maine-based company, is working on a system that will eventually sink the buoys (浮标), attached with long locks of seaweed, to the deep ocean floor, where the carbon they contain will remain stored for 800 years or more. Running Tide was founded by Marty Odlin, an engineer and fourth-generation commercial fisherman. The Gulf of Maine is warming faster than nearly every other oceanic region, and Odlin has seen the changes firsthand. About 15 years ago, Odlin heard a talk from Klaus Lackner - the physicist who popularised the idea of removing carbon from the atmosphere. It clicked. “It was like, oh, this is right because there’s no way we ’ re going to get off fossil (化石的) fuels in the next 50 years, ” he recalls thinking. “We’ re going to have to pull it down.” Using seaweed to draw down carbon would be an elegant solution - if it works. Seaweed forests collectively cover an estimated two million square kilometers and absorb as much carbon as the Amazon rainforest. But much of that storage is short-lived. When the seaweed is harvested, eaten by animals, or washes ashore, its stored carbon is released back into the atmosphere. Running Tide’s model, in theory at least, would take that stored carbon and sink it to the ocean floor where it would remain for centuries, breaking down slowly. Some scientists are careful about rushing ahead before fundamental scientific, environmental, and regulatory questions are answered. “Climate change is intensifying, and people are panicking, ”says Kristen Davis, a professor of University of California Irvine, “but the science is not there yet to actually confirm that it’s a good idea. ” 8. What can we learn about Running Tide's system? A. It removes carbon from seaweed. B. It turns seaweed into fertilizers. C. It sinks seaweed into the ocean floor. D. It stores seaweed as food sources. 9 What did Lackner's speech lead Odlin to do? A. Monitor changes in oceanic regions. B. Reduce commercial fishing industry. C. Set restrictions on the use of fossil fuels. D. Remove carbon from the atmosphere. 10. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. Steps of a carbon replacement method. B. The underlying logic of sinking seaweeds. C. Examples of massive seaweed forests. D. The carbon absorbing ability of seaweeds. 11. Why does the author quote Kristen Davis? A. To prove Odlin's opinion. B. To emphasise the climate crisis. C. To advocate scientists' cooperation. D. To present the issue objectively. D Wearables are back in the spotlight in 2024, becoming one of the trendiest topics in the tech world. Beyond tracking steps, heart rate and blood-oxygen levels, future wearable devices will take the form of smart glasses or futuristic spectacles (眼镜), reflecting the tech industry's drive to integrate artificial intelligence (AI) into these innovative devices. As reported by The Information, tech companies including OpenAI, Meta, Google and Snapchat are all competing to launch AI-powered smart glasses that respond intelligently to users’ visual input. Earlier this year, Snapchat previewed its revolutionary (革命性的) AI-powered glasses with camera and video functions, Meta has introduced experimental AI object recognition in Ray-Ban smart spectacles, which could answer questions like “Is this a tea caffeine-tree?” by taking a photo and analysing it. The power behind this revolution lies in the new multimodal AI technology, which creates responses by integrating multiple sources of data including images, texts, and other forms of data. It expands on most users’ experiences of using text-only AI chatbots and would be a natural fit for smart spectacles with front-looking cameras. However, AI systems aren’t all-powerful and still have many shortcomings. During testing, Meta’s Ray-Ban smart spectacles were found to “hallucinate”, seeing-things that weren’t really there. There are also legal concerns surrounding these devices. Small companies may find it difficult to manage employees using AI-powered face-worn cameras. The business risks are complex. Google faced similar trouble with its Glass device, being questioned by authorities on privacy issues. If new smart glasses become popular, such problems will reappear. Despite these challenges, the wearable AI revolution holds great promise. New opportunities should crop up for small businesses to develop adaptable apps and access the growing wearables market. With an estimated annual growth rate of nearly 15 percent until 2030, the global wearables market is expected to outperform that of the smartphones. As this revolutionary technology unfolds, it will be interesting to see how it shapes our lives and businesses. 12. How does the author demonstrate the new trend of wearables? A. By reporting findings. B. By using examples. C. By making comparisons. D. By raising questions. 13. What makes the revolution possible? A. AI’s capability to process multimodal data. B. Smart devices’ fast response speed. C. AI’s advance in object recognition. D. Front-looking cameras’ accuracy. 14. What is a major concern in developing the wearables? A. Lack in technical innovation. B. Limit on spectacle glasses` clarity. C. Security of personal information. D. Comfort level of device wearing. 15. What is the passage mainly about? A. Impact of AI on smart devices. B. Prospect of Al-driven wearables. C. Growth of the global tech industry. D. Argument of smart glasses technology. 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。 I always admired my grandmother Jenny’ s gardening skills.

Everyone was worried. “Does this mean our swim team is canceled?” Noah asked. Coach Abby comforted us, saying we’d still practice, but she wasn’t sure how the meets would be funded. The next morning, practice felt strange. None of us were swimming our best, and even Coach Abby was worried. During a break, Noah suggested, “If we can’t run the Snack Bar, maybe we can think of other ways to raise money. ” “Good idea. ” said Ruby. She suggested a karaoke sing-along (卡拉 OK) like what her brother did to raise funds for his school singing club. Tamara recommended a bake sale. “A. fall festival would be fun!” I added thinking we could have water-themed games on grounds by the swimming pool. At first, Coach Abby hesitated. But when she saw how excited we were, she agreed, “OK! Let’ s go for it!” We quickly began brainstorming ideas for our Support for Pool Party. “I’ll bring my karaoke machine. ” Ruby offered. “We could make the microphone look like a fish!” someone added. I suggested a “Fun in the Sun” lemonade stand, and everyone jumped in to help. Soon, we had a plan for the best fundraiser ever, complete with a starfish cookie bake sale. We were ready to make it happen! We spent so much time getting everything ready and talking up our fundraiser to everyone we met that we were positive it would be a great success. The day before our big event, I was squeezing lemons for lemonade when I saw a very dark cloud outside the kitchen window. “Uh-oh! That’s not a rain cloud, is it?” I asked my mom. “Rain would be a disaster! It could ruin everything. ” “You know what they say, ” she answered. “Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst. ” “Hmm, ” I said. 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。 The next day, I arrived at the pool grounds early. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Facing the sudden rain, we were relieved that we had prepared the big umbrellas. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力 1—5 BCACA 6—10 BCCAA 11—15CBABA 16—20 CBCBA 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
