People usually wash their produce before eating to remove some remains from pesticides().But are your
fruits and vegetables really clean enough to eat?Now 14-year-old Sirish Subash from Georgia has won the 2024 3M
Young Scientist Challenge for developing an AI-based handheld tool that is very accurate in finding pesticide
residues(残留物).
The ninth grader at the Gwinnett School of Mathematics,Science,and Technology in Snellville has received
the title"America's Top Young Scientist",according to a press release from the 3M Company.
Now in its 17th year,the challenge supports middle school students to think creatively and apply STEM
principles to discover real-world solutions.When the finalists were chosen,they were paired with a 3M scientist
who guided them over the summer to help transform their ideas from just concepts into models.Sirish spent four
months competing against nine other finalists and secured his win at the final challenge events at 3M's global
headquarters in St.Paul,Minnesota.
Sirish's jourey to winning the award came from watching his mother wash vegetables and fruits every day
and caution him to always do so.He wondered whether washing actually made a difference.
Since 70 percent of produce in the US has pesticide residues that are linked to illnesses like cancer and
Alzheimer's,it's very important to know if the fruits and vegetables are safe to eat.That's what PestiSCAND is
英语试题第3页(共8页)
designed to do.The device works by shining light on the surface of the produce and measuring the wavelengths
that bounce back.Sirish has tested the device on more than 12,000 food samples including strawberries,apples,
and tomatoes.
PestiSCAND uses a sensor and an AI-based processor to achieve an accuracy of over 85 percent.Sirish aims
at making this technology widely accessible so that consumers will be able to make safe food choices.But he still
believes people should wash their produce anyway.He plans to use the $25,000 prize from the competition to
help fund his educational goal of attending MIT.
24.Why was Sirish awarded "America's Top Young Scientist"?
A.He developed a new kind of pesticide.
B.He invented a smart pesticide detector.
C.He improved an AI-based handheld tool.
D.He found a way to remove pesticide residues.
25.What inspired Sirish to make his achievement?
A.His interest in the application of Al technology.
B.His teacher's guidance on scientific research.
C.His family's daily routine.
D.His ambition to win a competition.
26.Which of the following can best describe Sirish?
A.Curious and creative.
B.Clever and courageous.
C.Confident and knowledgeable.
D.Devoted and responsible.
27.What does the text want to tell us?
A.Actions speak louder than words.
B.A good beginning is half done.
C.Achievements are not about age.
D.Many hands make light work.

One of the least respected but most important ecosystems on Earth is seagrass meadows().Now,these
underwater gardens receive a new guest,a specially designed robot.
The ReefGen Grasshopper can plant dozens of seagrass seeds per minute.Not only is this faster than a human
diver,but much safer as well.It works by injecting a tiny slurry()with the seagrass seed inside into the
seafloor.After covering a growing plot of four seeds,the robot "jumps"about 30 centimeters away and starts
again.
Despite covering a very small portion of the seafloor,seagrass meadows are estimated to hold 35 times more
carbon than land forests-amounting to around 18%of the total carbon stock of the world's oceans.ReefGen's
founder Tom Chi dreamed up the idea after watching the degradation()of coral reefs on his home island in
Hawaii.The first model of the robot set ora"plugs"onto existing reefs to help regrow them,but the technology
was highly expensive for wide-scale use.Now however,broader selections of off-the-shelf parts have driven down
the costs of manufacturing and maintaining underwater robots,according to Chris Oakes,CEO of ReefGen.
"Manual planting works,but robots are really good when things are dull,dirty,dangerous,or distant-the
four Ds,"said Oakes,adding that at the moment,Grasshopper is piloted with a controller by a human on the
surface."Right now,we're focused on the planting,the biology,and the mechanical aspeots;once we're
confident that that's all designed the right way,we will overlay more semi-autonomous features like navigation,so
you don't actually have to pilot it,"he said.Oakes says that as cool and "flashy"as a robotic solution might
seem,the most important factor in its success will be the long-term monitoring of the fields it's replanting.Are
they growing to maturity?Are the seedlings dying off before then?Will they live long enough to seed and grow
fields of their own?How do fields it plants compare to fields planted by hand?
英语试题第4页(共8页)
28.What is the main function of the ReefGen Grasshopper?
A.Protecting coral reefs.
B.Cleaning the seafloor.
C.Planting seagrass seeds.
D.Monitoring the seagrass growth.
29.What do the figures in paragraph 3 indicate?

B.The value of seagrass meadows.
C.The general application of underwater robots.
D.The carbon stock of the world's oceans.
30.What is the key to the success of the Grasshopper's mission according to Oakes?
A.Its market potential.
B.Its convenience in operating.
C.Its low production expenses.
D.Its efficiency in replanting.
31.Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Robots Are Trained to Rescue Coral Reefs
B.Robots Help Restore Lost Seagrass Meadows
C.Seagrass Meadows Provide Benefits to Ecosystems
D.Technology Developed to Improve Deep-Sea Ecosystems

During the best time of year to give children toys comes a new poll that shows four in five parents confirm
their child is happier,more social,and more confident in themselves when they play with their favorite toy or doll.
The survey of 2,000 U.S.parents of school-aged kids found that 63%believe if their kid plays with toys or
dolls early in life,they'll have an easier time fostering new friendships later in life.7 in 10 parents report their
kids play with dolls and action figure-and they have"many"or"a fair number of"friends-according to the survey
by Talker Research.
On the question of what makes kids confident,60%of parents agreed that confidence is defined through a
sense of self and forming strong friendships.The study also looked into what parents want their kids to learn or
discover while playing with their toys.What was crucial was learning how to integrate themselves into society.That
was followed by problem-solving,finding personal interests and communicating with peers.
Interestingly,less than one-third of parents named academic skills as being comparable.They showed a
stronger interest in instilling()social and emotional values."For kids,the holidays are all about play,and
are a critical time for their self-growth,"said Dr.Sheryl Ziegler,a Clinical Psychologist and Play Therapist."The
ability to play helps kids navigate their world and sense of self."
On-screen characters have an impact on what toys and dolls kids want to play with.Nearly half of parents say
their child often or always plays with toys or dolls based on characters from TV shows or YouTube-and 91%say
their kids reenact the scenes.After all,there must be millions of adults who remember wearing a cape()
when they were young,thinking about their favorite super hero.
When asked what they'd like their children to take away from what they watch on TV shows,half of parents
named problem-solving as the number one takeaway.Other important takeaways included discovering their
personal interests and building confidence.
32.What was the survey meant to discover?
A.How toys help kids find true friends.
B.How toys influence kids'development.
C.What toys kids like most during holidays.
D.What factors affect kids'confidence.
33.What do the parents value most in their kids'playing with toys?
A.Their creativity.
B.Their interests.
C.Their problem-solving skills.
D.Their socializing ability.
英语试题第5页(共8页)
34.Which statement will Dr.Sheryl Ziegler probably agree with?
A.Kids should be allowed to play freely on holidays.
B.Academic skills are comparably important.
C.Parents should help their kids gain the ability to play.
D.Playing throughout holidays harms the parent-child relationship.
35.What does the underlined word "reenact"mean in paragraph 5?
A.Recreate.
B.Record.
C.Recommend.
D.Remove.

Everyone feels fear sometimes.Fear is a universal emotion that has evolved to protect us from danger and help
us go through life-threatening situations.Sometimes,we even try to scare ourselves just for fun!36 That's
when understanding why we feel fear and learning effective strategies to face it head-on is crucial for maintaining
good mental health.
Fear can make us feel bad,but that doesn't mean fear is an emotion we should completely remove from our
lives.37 From an evolutionary standpoint,fear has played a key role in human survival.When we're faced
with a threat,the brain's amygdala()causes a "fight or flight"response,which prepares the body to
escape from the identified danger.
38 But these aren't life-threatening,a bit like a"false alarm".When false alarms are going off all the
time,normal fear responses can move into becoming an anxiety disorder.Luckily,there are some methods we can
employ to deal with the fear.
The most important is learning about our fear.Learning about the object of our fear can help us take back
control.39 Trying some relaxation techniques is also helpful.Deep breathing and muscle relaxation can help
lower fear levels.40 So share our fears with friends or family whocan offer encouragement.
Facing the fear can lead to personal growth.By understanding the science behind fear and employing
evidence-based strategies,we can gradually overcome it.
A.It's here to help us survive,after all!
B.Let's imagine you're experiencing a situation that makes you fearful.
C.Sometimes,talking about our fears can make them seem less scary.
D.When it gets out of hand,though,it can start damaging our daily lives.
E.In modern times,this same mechanism'can be caused by many situations.
F.Why not start by walking to the end of your street and back with a trusted friend?
G.By understanding the reality of the situation,we can uncover the fear and reduce its power over us.

In the eyes of some people,Tom was a kid who often caused trouble.He would secretly stick chewing gum
(on the hair of the girl sitting in the front row in the classroom;he would also scare the classmates
passing by at the comner of the corridor.However,one thing changed people's view on him.
Last summer vacation,Tom went to visit his uncle in Los Angeles with his mother.He was very excited all
the way because he was going to see his cousin whom he hadn't seen for many years.While waiting at the New
York Airport,he kept asking his mother when they could board the plane.His mother simply said he should be
patient.The fourth time he asked,a noise not far away attracted him.Pushing through the crowd,Tom saw a little
boy lying on a trolley,looking a bit painful.Next to him,an older man was anxiously communicating with the
staff.As he was eager to know when he could board the plane,Tom didn't pay much attention to this incident.At
this time,the airport broadcast announced that passengers bound for Los Angeles could board the plane.Tom
couldn't wait to pull his mother towards the boarding gate.
Soon,everyone got on the plane.Ten minutes later,the plane began to taxi,indicating that it was about to
take off.Tom became even more excited.However,an action by the flight attendant made him a little confused.
A staff member walked up to the passenger next to Tom and said,"A little boy who urgently needs to fly to Los
Angeles for an operation must board the plane with his brother.But since the plane is full,the last two passengers
who boarded need to get off the plane."
Unfortunately,those two passengers and several others were part of a choir(),and they had an
important performance the next moming,which meant none of them could be missing.So they were a little hesitant
about this decision.But no one else on the plane offered to give up their seats.
注意:1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
At that moment,what Tom did moved the people present.
Three days later,Tom received a call from the New York Airport.
