W: What a great idea! Thanks for your advice. That’s what I’ll do.

【原文】Choosing the subjects you want to study can be difficult. After all, the decisions you make now may affect the rest of your life. They must be subjects you are really interested in and enthusiastic about. Also, you need to think of your possible future career when making your choices. How do you do that when you don’t yet know what career you want? It’s a tough question. We encourage all our students to listen to advice and discuss their thoughts with their parents and teachers. Normally, your subject choices should reflect where you believe your strengths lie, and where you think they might lie in the future. Whatever your subjects and ambitions are at this stage, if you’re prepared to work hard and throw yourself into your studies, then you will succeed. Learning how to work hard is a skill in itself. And it’s a skill you will need over the next two years, as you begin your studies. The work you put in now will be a big help for the next stage of your lives. Your teachers and I want the very best for you and are always here to help and guide you. I understand you may feel stressed about choosing the right subjects, but you should allow yourselves to feel a little excitement as well. This is an important time for you. It’s the first exciting step toward a bright and rewarding future. Make the most of it.

Brice Christianson went to sporting events as a child and realized how inaccessible thatworld was for his deaf father.
Recently, he stood 10 feet from National Hockey League (NHL)Commissioner (国家冰球联盟委员) Gary Bettman translating English into American Sign Language (ASL) for the annual league address at the Stanley Cup Final.
Sign language interpreters have been present for national anthems (国歌), but this represented the NHL’s biggest step yet to make the stories around hockey available to the deaf and hard of hearing community.
“We’re just scratching the surface,” said Christianson, now CEO for P-X-P, which specializes in making sports and entertainment more accessible for the deaf and hard of hearing. “Before, we always felt like we were lucky. Like I felt like we were lucky to be here ... but now I feel like we belong.”
“Fans are diverse, and deaf and hard of hearing people belong among them,” said Christianson as he interpreted ASL into English for his business partner Jason Altmann.
Having Christianson there to interpret for Bettman is one branch of the league’s diversity and inclusion initiatives.
Melissa Parnagian, NHl manager of growth strategies and social impact, knows the deaf and hard of hearing people are usually not the first group considered in that department, but has spoken plenty with Christianson and Altmann about what would help and be needed.
“What they emphasized to us is that a lot of what you can see in gameplay is easy to capture, but a lot of the sort of commentary and the business of the game, the culture of the game - the off-ice stuff- is often what gets lost because it's less visual,” said Parnagian.
The National Association of the Deaf commended the NHL for the move. CEO Howard Rosenblum called it another milestone and said, “We hope that this momentum (势头) leads to full access everywhere, including visibility on television broadcasts.”
Christianson’s goal is to help normalize sign language interpreters and make it “automatic” for teams and leagues to use them at major events.
24. What motivated Christianson to advocate sign language in sports?
A. The business potential in the field.
B. The problems his deaf father encountered.
C. His desire to become a sign language interpreter.
D. His wish to improve the quality of commentary in sports.
25. What is probably the main focus of Christianson’s organization, P-X-P?
A. Raising public awareness of helping the deaf.
B. Promoting diversity and inclusion in sports events.
C. Enhancing the visual experience of sports broadcasts.
D. Providing sign language interpreters for public events.
26. What does Parnagian mainly talk about in paragraph 8?
A. The social impact of the game. B. The importance of visual culture.
C. The dominant culture of the game. D. The overlooked aspects of gameplay.
27. What is Rosenblum’s view on the NH’s move?
A. Sympathetic. B. Dismissive. C. Tolerant. D. Grateful.
【答案】24. B 25. D 26. D 27. A

【26题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第八段“What they emphasized to us is that a lot of what you can see in gameplay is easy to capture, but a lot of the sort of commentary and the business of the game, the culture of the game - the off-ice stuff - is often what gets lost because it’s less visual. (他们向我们强调的是,你在比赛中能看到的很多东西很容易捕捉到,但很多解说、比赛的业务、比赛的文化——冰场外的东西——往往因为缺乏视觉效果而丢失。)”可知,帕纳吉安在第8段主要讲的是比赛中被忽视的方面。故选D。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。倒数第二段“The National Association of the Deaf commended the NHL for the move. CEO Howard Rosenblum called it another milestone and said, ‘We hope that this momentum (势头) leads to full access everywhere, including visibility on television broadcasts’. (美国全国聋人协会对NHL的这一举措表示赞赏。首席执行官霍华德·罗森布卢姆称这是又一个里程碑,并表示‘我们希望这一势头能推动各地都能全面接触,包括在电视广播中的可见度’。)”可知,罗森布卢姆希望这一势头能推动各地都能全面接触,包括在电视广播中的可见度,由此可推知,他对NHL此举是持赞同的态度。故选A。
C
When I challenged myself to travel by low-carbon routes during the writing of my book, I experienced the best and worst of our transit network. When public transport works, it really works. I found traveling by train and bike empowering.
But even in this time of climate emergency, public transport still remains an unpopular choice. It doesn’t take many strikes, cancellations, missed connections and rising ticket prices to avoid it altogether. When the average British person already spends around £ 3,500 a year on car costs, it’s no wonder we prefer the driver’s seat.
Yet, there are many reasons we should be using public transport more, with one being the bonus to the environment they bring. Recent research shows that UK trains have higher carbon savings than previously thought. For my Scottish journey, had I traveled a similar route from London to Edinburgh by car, my journey’s emissions would supposedly have increased 10-fold.
E-bike rental schemes have also increased across the UK, and so has cycling in general, but this mode of transport isn’t always planned for. All over the country, dedicated (专用的) bike lanes are way too rare.
All of this has revealed to me that while the UK’s transport infrastructure (基础设施) is poor, its potential is significant. We know how effective electrified rail routes can be in decarbonization, but in 2021-22 little more than a mile of such track was upgraded across Britain. Centrally funded investment could change things.
The rest of Europe seems to recognize this. If I were in Austria, I could travel across Vienna by public transport for €l a day. In Germany, I could organize a monthly €49 direct debit for all-inclusive regional public transport. Closer to home, Brighton and Hove have the most popular bus network outside London.
We must demand a nationalized low-carbon network A standardized, centrally funded consistently supported ecosystem of public transport across the UK could truly change our carbon game.
28. What does the underlined word “empowering” in paragraph 1 most probably mean?
A. Sparking debate. B. Causing confusion.
C. Giving strength or confidence. D. Leading to complaints and protests.
29. What is the problem with implementing e-bike rental schemes?
A. High rental fees. B. Potential safety problems.
C. Lack of public interest. D. Insufficient infrastructure
30. Why does the author mention Austria and Germany?
A. To compare the costs of public transport.
B. To predict the challenges of UK’s public transport.
C. To contrast with the state of UK’s public transportation.
D. To illustrate the popularity of public transport in Europe
31. What can be the best title for the passage?
A. Transforming carbon game: The Eco-Boost on Rails.
B. Revolutionizing UK Transport: The Green Ride Ahead.
C. Empowering Global travelling: A Long March on Land.
D. Revolutionizing UK City Life: The Tech Leap on Tracks.
【答案】28. C 29. D 30. C 31. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讨论了英国公共交通的现状、问题以及改进的可能性,并呼吁建立国家化的低碳公共交通网络。
【28题详解】
词句猜测题。根据上文“When I challenged myself to travel by low-carbon routes during the writing of my book, I experienced the best and worst of our transit network. When public transport works, it really works. (在写书期间,我给自己设定了一个挑战,即通过低碳出行方式旅行,这让我亲身体验了我们交通网络的优与劣。当公共交通运行顺畅时,它的表现真的非常出色。)”可知,作者写书时挑战自己使用低碳出行方式,因此可推测作者认为乘坐火车和自行车旅行是积极正面的经历,划线的“empowering”应表示“给予力量或信心”。故选C。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“All over the country, dedicated (专用的) bike lanes are way too rare. (在全国各地,专用的自行车道太少了。)”可知,实施电动自行车租赁计划存在的问题是基础设施不足。故选D。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“The rest of Europe seems to recognize this. If I were in Austria, I could travel across Vienna by public transport for €1 a day. In Germany, I could organize a monthly €49 direct debit for all-inclusive regional public transport. Closer to home, Brighton and Hove have the most popular bus network outside London. (欧洲其他国家似乎都认识到了这一点。如果我在奥地利,我可以每天花1欧元乘公共交通穿越维也纳。在德国,我可以每月安排49欧元的直接借记,用于全包的区域公共交通。离家更近的地方,布赖顿和霍夫拥有伦敦以外最受欢迎的公交网络。)”可知,作者提到奥地利和德国是为了与英国公共交通的状况形成对比。故选C。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知,本文主要讨论了英国公共交通的现状、问题以及改进的可能性,并呼吁建立国家化的低碳公共交通网络,由此可知,B项“英国交通革命:前方的绿色之旅。”最符合文章主旨。故选B。
D
A new research published on April 27 in the journal Social Psychological and Personality Science suggests that people use first person photography - a photo of a scene from their own perspective - when they want to document a physical experience. On the other hand, they choose third person photos, such as selfies where they are in the scene, to capture the deeper meaning of an event and make the viewer feel immersed in the scene.
Earlier research into the psychology of selfies focused on how the photo-taker wants to present themselves, while this new research takes the way people capture memories into consideration.
“Not only do we find that most people take both types of photos in different situations, but that people also differ across situations in whether their goal for taking photo is to capture the physical experience of the moment or the bigger meaning of the moment in their life.” said Zachary Niese, study co-author and psychologist at the University of Tubingen in Germany, in a statement.
The research included six studies involving over 2,100 participants. The team found that when the goal of a photo is to capture meaning, they’re more likely to take a selfie and that they find more meaning looking back at their own third-person photos compared with first-person.
People also tend to like their photos more when the perspective matches their goal for taking the photo.
“Taking and posting pictures is a part of everyday life for many people. While there is sometimes derision (嘲笑) about photo taking practices in popular culture, personal photos have the potential to help people reconnect to their past experiences and build their self-narratives,” said Niese.
The authors warned against the assumption that photos taken from first - or third - person perspectives are better than the other. Their analysis shows that the most effective perspective depends more on an individual’s goal in the moment - whether that be to capture a physical experience like taking a tour of a museum or the deeper meaning of an event like a wedding or graduation.
32. The new research mainly focuses on ______.
A. the advantages of first-person photography
B. the cultural factors influencing photo choices
C. the way people record their memories through photos
D. the psychology behind a photo-taker’s self-presentation
33. What did the researchers find about people’s preferences for taking photo?
A. People favor photos that correspond to their photo-taking goals.
B. People believe that first-person photos carry greater significance.
C. People generally prefer first-person photos over third-person photos.
D. People typically shooting physical experiences through third-person photos.
34. According to Niese, what is the primary purpose of a personal photo?
A. To help people recall their lives. B. To build a bond with each other.
C. To boost people’s self-confidence. D. To capture the feeling of the moment.
35. What might the authors agree with?
A. People should improve photography techniques.
B. Selfies are not always as shallow as they might seem.
C. A first-person perspective is better to capture the event.
D. Every perspective of photography produces similar effects.
【答案】32. C 33. A 34. A 35. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项关于人们如何通过拍照记录记忆的新研究。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Earlier research into the psychology of selfies focused on how the photo-taker wants to present themselves, while this new research takes the way people capture memories into consideration. (早期关于自拍心理学的研究集中在拍照者想要如何展现自己,而这项新研究则考虑了人们捕捉记忆的方式。)”可知,这项新研究主要关注的是人们通过照片记录记忆的方式。故选C。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“People also tend to like their photos more when the perspective matches their goal for taking the photo. (当照片的视角与他们的拍照目标相匹配时,人们也往往更喜欢自己的照片。)”可知,研究人员发现人们喜欢符合他们拍照目标的照片。故选A。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“While there is sometimes derision about photo taking practices in popular culture, personal photos have the potential to help people reconnect to their past experiences and build their self-narratives. (虽然在流行文化中,拍照行为有时会受到嘲笑,但个人照片有潜力帮助人们重新连接到他们过去的经历,并建立他们的自我叙述。)”可知,Niese认为个人照片的主要目的是帮助人们回忆他们的生活。故选A。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Their analysis shows that the most effective perspective depends more on an individual’s goal in the moment - whether that be to capture a physical experience like taking a tour of a museum or the deeper meaning of an event like a wedding or graduation. (他们的分析表明,最有效的视角更多地取决于个人当下的目标——无论是捕捉像参观博物馆这样的物理体验,还是像婚礼或毕业这样的事件的更深层次意义。)”可知,作者认为自拍的视角有时能捕捉到更深层次的意义,即自拍并不总是像它们看起来那么肤浅。故选B。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了几个变得获取更多信息的方法。
36题详解】
根据上文“Over the years I spent researching how news consumption impacts our mental well-being many people doubted my efforts. (多年来,我一直在研究新闻获取如何影响我们的心理健康,但很多人对我的努力持怀疑态度。)”及下文“Below are effective ways to help you become more informed. (以下是一些有效的方法,可以帮助你获取更多信息。)”可知,作者先提出目前面临的问题,下文提出改进的建议方法,所以此处表达“面临问题,还是有解决方式的”,选项E“But we have the power to adjust our media intake. (但我们有能力调整我们的媒体获取量)”起到承上启下的作用,符合逻辑。故选E。
【37题详解】
根据上文“Poor-quality information will lead to poor-quality decisions. (低质量的信息会导致低质量的决策。)”可知,低质量的新闻会带给我们负面的影响,因此我们要积极的采取行动,减少获取这类新闻,即我们的行动是关键。选项A“Our actions do matter. (我们的行动很重要)”符合逻辑。故选A。
【38题详解】
根据这一段落的主题“Be prepared to pay for content (准备好为内容付费)”可知,本段的建议是“为内容付费”。因此此处要首先指出“为内容付费”的原因。选项D“There is no such thing as a free lunch. (天下没有免费的午餐)”解释了为什么要付费,符合逻辑。故选D。
【39题详解】
根据下文“We do not have to only rely on news organizations to educate us on world issues. In our information-rich environment, there are plenty of other valuable sources available. (我们不必仅仅依靠新闻机构来教育我们了解世界问题。在我们这个信息丰富的环境中,还有许多其他有价值的资源可用。)”可知,本段给出的建议是“不能仅仅依赖新闻信息,还要利用其他有价值的资源”,选项B“Read beyond the news (阅读新闻之外的内容)”符合逻辑。故选B。
【40题详解】
根据本段标题“Become a conscious consumer (成为一个有意识的消费者)”可知,本段建议读者做一个有主动意识的人,上文“Change will not take place unless those who are expected to change know and accept the reasons, the methods, and the rewards for changing. (除非那些被期望改变的人知道并接受改变的原因、方法和回报,否则改变不会发生。)”先介绍没有主动意识,即被动改变的人,所以此处内容描述有主动意识的人的行为。选项G“Those who learn the ‘why’ of anything will always find the ‘how’. (懂得“为什么”的人总能找到“怎么做”)”符合逻辑。故选G。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了中国春节被联合国教科文组织列入人类非物质文化遗产代表作名录的意义,以及春节在中国文化中的重要地位和庆祝方式。
【56题详解】
考查动词时态。句意:这一纳入体现了对中国文化丰富性和生动性的更深刻认可。陈述客观事实,使用一般现在时,主语“This inclusion”为单数形式,所以谓语动词用第三人称单数形式represents。故填represents。
【57题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:它也为世界各地的人们提供了一个了解和欣赏中国传统文化的机会。此处为动词不定式作后置定语,修饰名词opportunity,表示“学习和欣赏中国传统文化的机会”故填to learn。
58题详解】
考查名词性从句。句意:它提醒我们,尽管我们庆祝的方式可能各不相同,但爱、希望和联系这些基本价值观是全世界共通的。此处为同位语从句的引导词,对名词“reminder”进行解释说明,且从句成分完整、意义完整,所以用连接词that引导。故填that。
【59题详解】
考查副词。句意同上。修饰动词shared需用副词形式universally。故填universally。
【60题详解】
考查动词时态语态。句意:春节已有4000多年的庆祝历史,是中国最重要的传统节日。根据时间状语“for over 4,000 years”可知,此处用现在完成时,且主语“The Spring Festival”与动词“celebrate”之间为被动关系,所以用现在完成时的被动语态,助动词用has。故填has been celebrated。
【61题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:它从农历新年的前夜开始,持续15天,以元宵节结束。此处为非谓语动词作状语,It和conclude为逻辑主谓关系,需用现在分词形式。故填concluding。
【62题详解】
考查连词。句意:对许多人来说,这是一个回到家乡、与亲人团聚、祭拜祖先的时刻,这一习俗深深植根于儒家价值观之中。此处为并列连词连接三个并列的动词不定式短语“to return to their hometowns”、“(to) reunite with loved ones”和“(to) honor ancestors”,表示这三个动作都是春节期间人们会做的,所以用并列连词and。故填and。
【63题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意同上。空处需填非谓语动词作后置定语,修饰名词practice,root和practice为逻辑动宾关系,需用过去分词形式。故填rooted。
【64题详解】
考查介词。句意:尽管春节起源于古代,但它在现代仍然具有深远的意义。此处表示“尽管”应用介词despite,位于句首,首字母需大写。故填Despite。
【65题详解】
考查名词。句意:对于许多年轻一代来说,春节是他们与文化传统之间的桥梁,在这个不断变化的世界中为他们提供了连续性和归属感。many修饰可数名词复数形式。故填generations。

67. 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。
At this festive time of the year when November turns to December and Christmas approaches, an incident from the past surfaces in my mind, a moment that inspired me to always seek out opportunities to lend a helping hand.
It was nearly twenty years ago a period when my children were still in their teenage years full of vitality and constantly evolving preferences. I had grown tired of attempting to predict their Christmas wishes, so each year, we took a long car trip to a Shopping Mall. There, I gave them each an envelope stuffed with cash, allowing them to choose exactly what their hearts desired: This specific year, I had thoughtfully saved an extra hundred dollars, intending to treat myself to a few gifts. However, as I walked the length of the Mall, I found myself unable to find anything that truly resonated (产生共鸣) with me.
As we finally climbed into the car, ready to depart, I started the engine and began navigating towards the main road. It was then, amidst the hum of traffic and the glow of streetlights, that I caught sight of her — a homeless woman standing by the roadside. She looked much older than her age. She was dressed in a torn, threadbare coat. er gray hair was tangled (缠结) and clumped together in a messy mass. Her face was chapped (皲裂的) from the winter wind. But the thing that struck me most was her eyes. She had the saddest eyes that I had ever seen.
“Mom, look at that lady,” one of my children said softly, her voice tinged with concern.
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。
“see her,” I replied, slowing the car to a stop.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The woman hesitated for a moment, but eventually agreed.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 “I see her,” I replied, slowing the car to a stop. I opened the car door and stepped outside. As I approached the homeless woman, she looked up, her sad eyes meeting mine with a mixture of hope and skepticism. I felt a pang of guilt wash over me as I realized how easily I had forgotten about the less fortunate during this festive season. “Excuse me,” I called out gently, “We have some money and some food in the car. Would you like some help?” My children, sensing the significance of the moment, hustled over in a rush as well, their faces alight with curiosity and compassion.
The woman hesitated for a moment, but eventually agreed. Her voice trembled as she whispered, “Thank you, thank you so much.” My children quickly grabbed the bags of food and the envelope of money that I had prepared, handing them to her with genuine smiles. The woman clutched the gifts close to her chest, her eyes brimming with tears of appreciation. “God bless you,” she murmured, with heartfelt sincerity. In that brief encounter, I felt a profound sense of fulfillment, knowing that we had made a small but meaningful difference in someone’s life during the holiday season.

Brice Christianson went to sporting events as a child and realized how inaccessible thatworld was for his deaf father.
Recently, he stood 10 feet from National Hockey League (NHL)Commissioner (国家冰球联盟委员) Gary Bettman translating English into American Sign Language (ASL) for the annual league address at the Stanley Cup Final.
Sign language interpreters have been present for national anthems (国歌), but this represented the NHL’s biggest step yet to make the stories around hockey available to the deaf and hard of hearing community.
“We’re just scratching the surface,” said Christianson, now CEO for P-X-P, which specializes in making sports and entertainment more accessible for the deaf and hard of hearing. “Before, we always felt like we were lucky. Like I felt like we were lucky to be here ... but now I feel like we belong.”
“Fans are diverse, and deaf and hard of hearing people belong among them,” said Christianson as he interpreted ASL into English for his business partner Jason Altmann.
Having Christianson there to interpret for Bettman is one branch of the league’s diversity and inclusion initiatives.
Melissa Parnagian, NHl manager of growth strategies and social impact, knows the deaf and hard of hearing people are usually not the first group considered in that department, but has spoken plenty with Christianson and Altmann about what would help and be needed.
“What they emphasized to us is that a lot of what you can see in gameplay is easy to capture, but a lot of the sort of commentary and the business of the game, the culture of the game - the off-ice stuff- is often what gets lost because it's less visual,” said Parnagian.
The National Association of the Deaf commended the NHL for the move. CEO Howard Rosenblum called it another milestone and said, “We hope that this momentum (势头) leads to full access everywhere, including visibility on television broadcasts.”
Christianson’s goal is to help normalize sign language interpreters and make it “automatic” for teams and leagues to use them at major events.
24. What motivated Christianson to advocate sign language in sports?
A. The business potential in the field.
B. The problems his deaf father encountered.
C. His desire to become a sign language interpreter.
D. His wish to improve the quality of commentary in sports.
25. What is probably the main focus of Christianson’s organization, P-X-P?
A. Raising public awareness of helping the deaf.
B. Promoting diversity and inclusion in sports events.
C. Enhancing the visual experience of sports broadcasts.
D. Providing sign language interpreters for public events.
26. What does Parnagian mainly talk about in paragraph 8?
A. The social impact of the game. B. The importance of visual culture.
C. The dominant culture of the game. D. The overlooked aspects of gameplay.
27. What is Rosenblum’s view on the NH’s move?
A. Sympathetic. B. Dismissive. C. Tolerant. D. Grateful.

When I challenged myself to travel by low-carbon routes during the writing of my book, I experienced the best and worst of our transit network. When public transport works, it really works. I found traveling by train and bike empowering.
But even in this time of climate emergency, public transport still remains an unpopular choice. It doesn’t take many strikes, cancellations, missed connections and rising ticket prices to avoid it altogether. When the average British person already spends around £ 3,500 a year on car costs, it’s no wonder we prefer the driver’s seat.
Yet, there are many reasons we should be using public transport more, with one being the bonus to the environment they bring. Recent research shows that UK trains have higher carbon savings than previously thought. For my Scottish journey, had I traveled a similar route from London to Edinburgh by car, my journey’s emissions would supposedly have increased 10-fold.
E-bike rental schemes have also increased across the UK, and so has cycling in general, but this mode of transport isn’t always planned for. All over the country, dedicated (专用的) bike lanes are way too rare.
All of this has revealed to me that while the UK’s transport infrastructure (基础设施) is poor, its potential is significant. We know how effective electrified rail routes can be in decarbonization, but in 2021-22 little more than a mile of such track was upgraded across Britain. Centrally funded investment could change things.
The rest of Europe seems to recognize this. If I were in Austria, I could travel across Vienna by public transport for €l a day. In Germany, I could organize a monthly €49 direct debit for all-inclusive regional public transport. Closer to home, Brighton and Hove have the most popular bus network outside London.
We must demand a nationalized low-carbon network, A standardized, centrally funded consistently supported ecosystem of public transport across the UK could truly change our carbon game.
28. What does the underlined word “empowering” in paragraph 1 most probably mean?
A. Sparking debate. B. Causing confusion.
C. Giving strength or confidence. D. Leading to complaints and protests.
29. What is the problem with implementing e-bike rental schemes?
A. High rental fees. B. Potential safety problems.
C. Lack of public interest. D. Insufficient infrastructure
30. Why does the author mention Austria and Germany?
A. To compare the costs of public transport.
B. To predict the challenges of UK’s public transport.
C. To contrast with the state of UK’s public transportation.
D. To illustrate the popularity of public transport in Europe
31. What can be the best title for the passage?
A. Transforming carbon game: The Eco-Boost on Rails.
B. Revolutionizing UK Transport: The Green Ride Ahead.
C. Empowering Global travelling: A Long March on Land.
D. Revolutionizing UK City Life: The Tech Leap on Tracks.
D
A new research published on April 27 in the journal Social Psychological and Personality Science suggests that people use first person photography - a photo of a scene from their own perspective - when they want to document a physical experience. On the other hand, they choose third person photos, such as selfies where they are in the scene, to capture the deeper meaning of an event and make the viewer feel immersed in the scene.
Earlier research into the psychology of selfies focused on how the photo-taker wants to present themselves, while this new research takes the way people capture memories into consideration.
“Not only do we find that most people take both types of photos in different situations, but that people also differ across situations in whether their goal for taking photo is to capture the physical experience of the moment or the bigger meaning of the moment in their life.” said Zachary Niese, study co-author and psychologist at the University of Tubingen in Germany, in a statement.
The research included six studies involving over 2,100 participants. The team found that when the goal of a photo is to capture meaning, they’re more likely to take a selfie and that they find more meaning looking back at their own third-person photos compared with first-person.
People also tend to like their photos more when the perspective matches their goal for taking the photo.
“Taking and posting pictures is a part of everyday life for many people. While there is sometimes derision (嘲笑) about photo taking practices in popular culture, personal photos have the potential to help people reconnect to their past experiences and build their self-narratives,” said Niese.
The authors warned against the assumption that photos taken from first - or third - person perspectives are better than the other. Their analysis shows that the most effective perspective depends more on an individual’s goal in the moment - whether that be to capture a physical experience like taking a tour of a museum or the deeper meaning of an event like a wedding or graduation.
32. The new research mainly focuses on ______.
A. the advantages of first-person photography
B. the cultural factors influencing photo choices
C the way people record their memories through photos
D. the psychology behind a photo-taker’s self-presentation
33. What did the researchers find about people’s preferences for taking photo?
A. People favor photos that correspond to their photo-taking goals.
B. People believe that first-person photos carry greater significance.
C. People generally prefer first-person photos over third-person photos.
D. People typically shooting physical experiences through third-person photos.
34. According to Niese, what is the primary purpose of a personal photo?
A. To help people recall their lives. B. To build a bond with each other.
C. To boost people’s self-confidence. D. To capture the feeling of the moment.
35. What might the authors agree with?
A. People should improve photography techniques.
B. Selfies are not always as shallow as they might seem.
C. A first-person perspective is better to capture the event.
D. Every perspective of photography produces similar effects.

At this festive time of the year when November turns to December and Christmas approaches, an incident from the past surfaces in my mind, a moment that inspired me to always seek out opportunities to lend a helping hand.
It was nearly twenty years ago, a period when my children were still in their teenage years full of vitality and constantly evolving preferences. I had grown tired of attempting to predict their Christmas wishes, so each year, we took a long car trip to a Shopping Mall. There, I gave them each an envelope stuffed with cash, allowing them to choose exactly what their hearts desired: This specific year, I had thoughtfully saved an extra hundred dollars, intending to treat myself to a few gifts. However, as I walked the length of the Mall, I found myself unable to find anything that truly resonated (产生共鸣) with me.
As we finally climbed into the car, ready to depart, I started the engine and began navigating towards the main road. It was then, amidst the hum of traffic and the glow of streetlights, that I caught sight of her — a homeless woman standing by the roadside. She looked much older than her age. She was dressed in a torn, threadbare coat. er gray hair was tangled (缠结) and clumped together in a messy mass. Her face was chapped (皲裂的) from the winter wind. But the thing that struck me most was her eyes. She had the saddest eyes that I had ever seen.
“Mom, look at that lady,” one of my children said softly, her voice tinged with concern.
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。
“see her,” I replied, slowing the car to a stop.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The woman hesitated for a moment, but eventually agreed.
