But paper cutting is at the risk of disappearing. Voyo Woo, a Chinese immigrant (移民), who loves paper cutting, worked hard to celebrate the ancient art form. With a strong interest in paper cutting, Ms. Woo held a paper cutting exhibition at a shopping center near Washington. “I really love it. I get so much fun by doing it. I am just kind of hoping that more people will learn about this art which is about to disappear. I think it’s time to take action. So I held it.” Voyo Woo began to study paper cutting when she was a 14-year-old girl in southeastern China. Voyo Woo’s teacher gave her extra training after class because Voyo Woo discovered a special love for it. Later, her beautiful paper cuttings won second prize in a national painting competition. “Paper is the easiest material that you can find. You can just turn it into beautiful art. I think it is like magic to me.” Ms. Woo came to the USA after she finished college in 2008. She has been invited to show the art at a wide collection of events. She also has shown her skill and works at famous museums like the Smithsonian Institution’s Freer and Sackler art museum in Washington. “I saw so many people coming to me and asking me. They were amazed. I think it is important to introduce the art form to American people or anyone who is interested.” Ms. Woo placed examples of her art around her as she displayed paper cutting at the shopping center. Ann Russ, a shopper, was attracted by the fine nature of the work. She said it put her at case. “I appreciate Chinese art because I find it very beautiful. It is almost relaxing to put that much effort into it. It is amazing that Chinese art can be favored by people from other cultural backgrounds,” Ms. Russ said. 41. What is a challenge faced by paper cutting as mentioned in the passage? A. The popularity of interest in paper cutting in today’s art. B. The risk of paper cutting disappearing in the future. C. The high costs for paper cutting exhibitions. D. The difficulty in learning paper cutting. 42. Why did Voyo Woo exhibit her paper cutting work in the USA? A. To win national painting competitions. B. To describe her new hobby to the public. C. To introduce and preserve the art of paper cutting. D. To celebrate her personal achievement in paper cutting. 43. What can we learn from Voyo Woo’s early experience with paper cutting? A. She learned paper cutting after coming to the USA. B. She was trained by a professional artist in Washington. C. She began to study paper cutting in southeastern China. D. She disliked paper cutting at first but later developed a passion for it. 44. How did Voyo Woo manage to develop her paper cutting skills? A. By traveling to various countries. B. By attending art classes in college. C. By taking part in various art competitions. D. By practicing and receiving extra training. 45.

She appreciates its beauty and finds it calming. D. She is not sure of the appeal to diverse cultures. C Some teens disagree with compulsory BMI ( body mass index) checks in PE classes. Do BMI checks at school do more harm than good? Two teens take different sides. Maya Meade, a high school freshman in Ohio, says yes. “I understand that schools want to weigh students because they are concerned about their physical health. That’s not a bad thing! But what about their mental health? For many students, appearances and self-images are huge sources of stress. Forcing teens to be weighed at school will only increase the stress they feel to fit a certain mold (类型),” says Maya. In Maya’s opinion, weight is a personal matter that should stay between a doctor and a patient. She says, “Just imagine someone who struggles with the body image being told that his or her BMI is too high as classmates look on! Even if other kids can’t hear, no student wants to feel judged by his or her teacher. That’s not why we go to school.” Maya thinks that if a school wants to have an impact on a student’s physical health, there are better ways to do it, such as providing healthy and filling meals, encouraging physical activities and teaching students about nutrition (营养). Ben Bagbek, a second-year student in a high school in New York, holds a different opinion. “There is no reason why a school should not be allowed to weigh its students and teach them how to work out BMI! Obesity (肥胖) is a huge public health concern in our country. And schools are in a position to help students understand what their weight means to their health — before they’ re at risk of life-threatening conditions.” “A school’s job is to help students realize their full potential, and your health undoubtedly plays a role in your academic performance. BMI is not a perfect measurement, but it can help you identify the need for healthier eating habits or more physical activities,” says Ben. The bottom line is: When you feel good, you learn better. As long as the actual number on the scale stays private, it should be viewed as an important part of your health education. 46 What are the two teens debating? A. Whether students enjoy PE classes. B. Whether schools should check students’BMI. C. Whether students should pay attention to weight. D. Whether schools should help students lose weight. 47. According to Maya, what will BMI checks bring to students? A. Emotional stress. B. Healthy diets. C. Fierce competition. D. Positive self-awareness. 48. What does the phrase “fit a certain mold” imply in Maya’s statement? A. To wear a specific type of uniform. B. To meet a standard of body image. C. To perform a certain physical activity. D. To achieve a certain academic standard. 49. Which of the following statement may Ben agree with? A. Most school students are overweight. B. BMI checks are of little help to students. C Schools have the right to weigh students. D. It’s not schools’ duty to help students keep fit. 50. What is the purpose of presenting the two teens’ opinions in the passage? A. To discuss the impact of obesity on academic performance. B. To provide a comprehensive overview of BMI checks in schools. C. To argue for the cancellation of physical education classes in schools. D. To present a balanced view on the effectiveness of BMI checks in schools. D Automated kitchens aren’t sci-fi scenes from shows like Star Trek. Right now, robots are used to fry chicken, create pizzas, prepare salads and much more. AI can invent recipes (食谱) based on what a kitchen has. More advanced concepts are in development to automate kitchens for fine dining. Since technology tends to be expensive at first, restaurants and other businesses are the first ones to use AI kitchen technologies. Over time, prices are likely to fall enough for the home market, changing how homes and society work. The benefits of AI kitchens include enabling cooks to avoid boring tasks such as peeling potatoes or standing at a workstation for hours. It can free up time, allowing people to focus on more important tasks. For personalized eating, AI can fit countless special diets and tastes on demand. However, there are risks to human well-being. Cooking is a good activity that helps with communication and self-expression, but these benefits could be diminished (减少) if the human element becomes unnecessary. Family relationships might suffer without the collaborative (协作的) kitchen environment. Furthermore, the kitchen serves as the household’s science laboratory, playing an important role in science education. The art of cooking helps kids learn about materials, chemistry and problem-solving. Cultural risks must also be considered. For example, AI could mess up traditional recipes and methods, as it often stereotypes or oversimplifies cultural details. This may result in AI and robot cooks producing less diverse dishes. Relying too heavily on technology in meal creation may result in a lack of variety, leading to a sameness in taste. That’s akin (类似的) to the strangely similar feel of AI art images across different apps. Convenience can come at a great cost, so it’s important to consider the possible social disruptions (扰乱) that new technologies might bring, especially in areas like food that are closely tied to our everyday lives. 51. What makes AI kitchen technologies an early choice for businesses like restaurants? A. Being able to afford the high costs. B. Being specifically designed for them. C. Reducing the need for human workers. D. Improving communication among staff. 52. What potential benefit of AI kitchens is mentioned in the passage? A. Meeting various tastes. B. Saving money on food. C. Reducing kitchen waste. D. Improving family relationships. 53. What educational role does the kitchen play according to the passage? A. Cultural learning center. B. Nutrition learning environment. C. Artistic skills development space. D. Science lab for materials and chemistry. 54 What is the author’s attitude toward AI kitchens? A. The author doesn’t agree with the use of AI in kitchens. B The author is completely in favor of AI in kitchens. C. The author is careful about using AI in kitchens. D. The author doesn’t care about AI in kitchens. 55. What’s the best title for this passage? A. AI in the Kitchen: Benefits and Risks B. Robots: The New Chefs in Restaurants C The Impact of AI vs. Family Relationships D. Traditional Cooking Methods vs. Technology 五、阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 Grace Young grew up in San Francisco. When she was little, she used to watch her father shop daily in Chinatown for whatever he needed to make traditional Chinese meals at home. As an award-winning cookbook author, Ms. Young, now 66, has spent decades shopping the same way in New York’s Chinatown. Ms. Young developed a passion for cooking at an early age. At 13, she started to sit in on cooking classes. After college, Ms. Young moved to New York and worked in a book-packaging company. In her 30s, she realized that while she had helped create more than 40 cookbooks, she didn’t know how to make the dishes that tasted of home. “I knew if I recorded all of my parents’ recipes, it would be a great gift that I could give my family and the next generation.” she says. Yet what began as a recipe book became a kind of memoir (回忆录). Talking about food encouraged her parents to finally open up about their past, like the fact that her father had owned a Chinatown restaurant in the 1940s “It was really an amazing way to learn not only my family’s recipes, but also my family’s story.” she says. The Wisdom of the Chinese Kitchen (1999) launched (开始) Ms. Young’s work in preserving Chinese culinary (烹饪的) traditions. Ms. Young has also devoted herself to supporting the restaurants in Chinatown. Since early 2020, Ms. Young has raised money to buy meals from Chinatown restaurants and deliver them to those in need. This year, instead of cooking at home for her husband and friends, she celebrated the Chinese New Year with various dishes from local restaurants in Chinatown. “If these restaurants don’t survive, Chinese culinary traditions in our city won’t survive.” she says. 56.

My name is Li Jin, chairman of the Hongxing Middle School Students’ Union. On behalf of our school, I feel delighted to introduce our environment protection activity, whose detailed information is as follows. Firstly, it is required that every student shut off electricity when leaving the classroom. Secondly we don’t waste water. We always water plants or wash toilets, using used water. Thirdly, we often put different rubbish into different dustbins so that the rubbish can be dealt with properly. At the same time, we appeal to the students who will graduate to donate their used books to the students in the other grades. Through the protecting environment activity, we benefit a lot, not only developing our awareness of protecting environment, but also making our school more beautiful and more harmonious. Thanks for your listening. 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
