When photojournalist Jasper Doest arrived in the Transylvanian Alps to document the coexistence of humans and wildlife for his film, he planned on shooting in the forest of the Southern Carpathian woods. “It’s a beautiful mountain landscape with the forests — a very wild place,” says Doest. Instead, he found a story on the side of the road — he got up close and personal with a group of bears begging for food.
While driving on a mountain pass, Doest realized the bears hanging around on the roadside were waiting for human handouts. He stopped to observe the bears, but when he rolled down his window, a large brown bear headed directly for the vehicle and made his move, waiting for a tasty treat. “This is the shot,” thought Doest. He forced his fingers to press the button, getting six shots — one clear, five unclear. Then he realized just how close he’d been to the animal and its possible dangers.
The region’s brown bears are usually shy around people. It takes just a few meals to get hooked on human food. And, after that, they don’t stay wild long. They began to depend on humans for existence. Doest changed his ideas to the assignment after meeting a tourist who proudly told him she’d been feeding bears on the roadside in the conservation area. “It was the saddest thing,” he says. “It made us realize the bears had completely changed their behavior.”
In the days that followed Doest saw other examples of how tourists’ handouts had changed the delicate ecosystem they were visiting. As he watched people feeding bears snacks like doughnuts, he realized the story of conservation in the region was as much about people as wildlife. “It’s about how to accept nature in our lives, and how we could benefit if we do it the right way,” he says. So don’t feed the bears, says Doest — you could save an animal’s life, and a community’s commitment to wildlife conservation, along the way.
4. Why did Doest go to the Transylvanian Alps?
A. To go hunting. B. To prepare for his film. C. To go travelling. D. To interview visitors.
5. What can we infer from paragraph 2?
A. Doest was never afraid of bears. B. Doest was impatient with the bear.
C. Doest wasn’t good at photographing. D. Doest felt thrilled when taking pictures.
6. What effect will humans’ feeding bring to the brown bears?
A. They tend to become humans’ pets. B. They have a higher risk of getting ill.
C. They are likely to attack people for food. D. They will become too dependent on humans.
7. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To promote his new documentary. B. To record his encounter with bears.
C. To call on people not to feed wildlife. D. To attract more visitors to help bears.
【答案】4. B 5. D 6. D 7. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了摄影记者Jasper Doest在拍摄人类与野生动物共存主题的纪录片时,观察到人们给熊喂食的现象,并阐述了这样做对熊和环境的影响,并呼吁人们不要给野生动物喂食。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“When photojournalist Jasper Doest arrived in the Transylvanian Alps to document the coexistence of humans and wildlife for his film, he planned on shooting in the forest of the Southern Carpathian woods. (当摄影记者Jasper Doest抵达Transylvanian Alps,准备为他的电影记录人类与野生动物的共存时,他原本计划在Southern Carpathian的森林中拍摄)”可知,Doest去Transylvanian Alps是为了为他的电影准备素材。故选B。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段““This is the shot,” thought Doest. He forced his fingers to press the button, getting six shots — one clear, five unclear. Then he realized just how close he’d been to the animal and its possible dangers. (“这就是那个镜头了,”Doest心想。他强迫自己的手指按下快门,拍了六张照片——其中一张清晰,五张模糊。然后他才意识到自己离那只动物及其潜在的危险有多近)”可推知,多斯特在拍摄时既紧张又兴奋,因为他离棕熊非常近,且意识到了可能的危险,但他还是成功地按下了快门。故选D。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“The region’s brown bears are usually shy around people. It takes just a few meals to get hooked on human food. And, after that, they don’t stay wild long. They began to depend on humans for existence. (该地区的棕熊通常对人类很害羞。只需几顿人类食物,它们就会上瘾。之后,它们很快就不再野性了,开始依赖人类生存)”可知,人类喂食棕熊会导致它们对人类食物上瘾,并逐渐变得依赖人类,失去野性。故选D。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“So don’t feed the bears, says Doest — you could save an animal’s life, and a community’s commitment to wildlife conservation, along the way. (所以Doest说,不要给熊喂食——这样做可以挽救动物的生命,同时也能维护一个社区对野生动物保护的承诺)”可知,作者写这篇文章的目的是呼吁人们不要喂食野生动物。故选C。
C
Many companies have advertised a feature in their newer phones that lets users use AI as a recipe generator (生成器) assistant.
With AI-generated recipes, casual cooks may risk a terrible meal or a life-threatening situation. Last year, Forbes reported that one AI recipe generator produced a recipe for “aromatic (芳香的) water mix”. The recipe actually produced deadly chlorine gas.
For food bloggers and recipe developers, this technology can threaten their livelihood. Sarah and Kaitlin Leung are sisters who set up The Woks of Life, a food blog focused on sharing “recipes, kitchen exploits, and travels”. After an idea is formed, they will test a recipe up to 40times. “These companies are taking content created by real people to train their AI models, and then competing directly with those same people. So it’s a huge sort of existential threat,” Sarah says.
Andrew Olson, a software engineer who develops recipes for his food blog, One Ingredient Chef, sees it differently. “So much of recipe development is getting inspiration from other recipes,” he says. “They’re not reproducing it word for word.” On his website, users can input a list of ingredients to generate a recipe that looks just like one from a cookbook. Each recipe even includes a headnote with a sense-based description of the final product and suggestions for when and where to serve each dish. Advanced versions of the software even generate images of what the recipe’s final product could look like.
“I think food bloggers could use AI to be more creative, to come up with new ideas,” he says. “But I don’t think the technology is there to the point where you can have an entirely AI-generated blog, although that would be a cool concept. Maybe someone should try it and see how it goes.” Olson adds.
8. What problem can AI recipe generators cause?
A. Higher costs of phones. B. Accidents in cooking.
C. Threat to recipe companies. D. Unemployment of assistants.
9. What is Sarah’s attitude towards AI-generated recipes?
A. Negative. B. Unclear. C. Favourable. D. Objective.
10. What does One Ingredient Chef feature?
A. It tests its recipes up to 40 times. B. It sends a real cookbook to users.
C. It gives suggestions on a healthy dish. D. It produces the final product’s pictures.
11. What do Olson’s words imply in the last paragraph?
A. AI should be banned from generating recipes.
B. AI recipe generators can replace food bloggers.
C. Entirely AI-generated recipes are widely available.
D. The use of AI technology needs further development.
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. D 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是议论文。文章围绕AI生成食谱的功能展开讨论,分析了其对普通烹饪者、食品博主和食谱开发者可能带来的风险以及机遇,呈现了不同人对这一技术的看法和态度。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Last year, Forbes reported that one AI recipe generator produced a recipe for “aromatic (芳香的) water mix”. The recipe actually produced deadly chlorine gas.(去年,福布斯报道称,一个人工智能配方生成器制作了一个“芳香水混合物”的配方。这个配方实际上产生了致命的氯气)”可知,AI配方生成器会导致烹饪事故。故选B项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段““These companies are taking content created by real people to train their AI models, and then competing directly with those same people. So it’s a huge sort of existential threat,” Sarah says.(“这些公司正在利用真人创作的内容来训练他们的人工智能模型,然后直接与这些人竞争。所以这是一种巨大的生存威胁,”Sarah说)”可知,Sarah对AI生成的食谱持负面态度。故选A项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Advanced versions of the software even generate images of what the recipe’s final product could look like.(该软件的高级版本甚至可以生成食谱最终成品的图像)”可知,One Ingredient Chef的特点是它生成最终产品的图片。故选D项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““I think food bloggers could use AI to be more creative, to come up with new ideas,” he says. “But I don’t think the technology is there to the point where you can have an entirely AI-generated blog, although that would be a cool concept. Maybe someone should try it and see how it goes.” Olson adds.(他说:“我认为美食博主可以利用人工智能变得更有创造力,提出新的想法。”“但我不认为现在的技术可以让你拥有一个完全由人工智能生成的博客,尽管这将是一个很酷的概念。也许有人应该试试,看看效果如何。”Olson补充道)”可知,Olson暗示了人工智能技术的使用需要进一步发展。故选D项。
D
Whether your garden is below a city window or in a big backyard, getting kids involved in, tending plants can be a powerful teaching tool for subjects like science, math, and reading. But the art of growing things can also develop important life skills in children.
Being patient is something many children struggle with, but also helps a kid stay calm in stressful situations. Life is a mixture of immediate and delayed satisfaction, so children benefit from learning both. Good things come at the end of a growing season — like yummy fruit or pretty flowers — but kids have to wait for them. For longer-growth plants, kids can create a garden journal to document the progress of their young plants with words, drawings, or photos.
Additionally, working in a garden helps children experience various sounds, smells, and sights. The various sense experiences — the feel and smell of dirt, the sound and sight of water — help them focus on the moment and bring calm to them. At that moment, “they realize they have the power to control their big feelings and thoughts,” says child therapist Jennifer Couture. More importantly, parents should encourage kids to zone out while they’re doing a task again and again such as watering or digging. This can allow their minds to go freely, helping them find a moment of peace.
When kids realize that a garden is full of living things that need their help to survive, they can develop a sense of caring and thoughtfulness. Sometimes, a garden can also grow kindness, responsibility, and other values in kids.
12. How can kids learn to be patient from gardening?
A. By reading a garden journal. B. By appreciating pretty things.
C. By struggling with difficulties. D. By waiting for good things for long.
13. What can calm kids while they are gardening?
A. Good self-control ability. B. Friendly family members.
C. Various sense experiences. D. Beautiful natural environment.
14. What does the phrase “zone out” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Relax. B. Persist. C. Participate. D. Focus.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. The Process of Kids’ Gardening B. Ways to Grow Kids’ Learning Skills
C. Kids’ Awareness of Protecting the Nature D. Gardening for Kids: More Than What You Know
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. A 15. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述了让孩子参与园艺活动不仅可以作为学习科学、数学和阅读等科目的有力教学工具,还能培养孩子的重要生活技能。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Good things come at the end of a growing season - like yummy fruit or pretty flowers - but kids have to wait for them(美好的事物往往在一个生长季节结束时才会到来——比如美味的果实或漂亮的花朵——但孩子们必须耐心等待)”可知,好东西(如美味的水果或漂亮的花朵)是在生长季节结束时得到的,但孩子们必须等待它们。这说明孩子们通过园艺学会耐心的方式是等待好东西的到来。故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Additionally, working in a garden helps children experience various sounds, smells, and sights. The various sense experiences — the feel and smell of dirt, the sound and sight of water — help them focus on the moment and bring calm to them(此外,在花园里劳动能让孩子们体验到各种声音、气味和景象。各种感官体验——泥土的触感和气味,水的声音和景象——帮助他们专注于当下,使他们平静下来)”可知,在花园里工作能让孩子们体验各种声音、气味和景象,这些各种感官体验有助于他们专注于当下,并给他们带来平静。故选C。
【14题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第三段中的“More importantly, parents should encourage kids to zone out while they’re doing a task again and again such as watering or digging. This can allow their minds to go freely, helping them find a moment of peace(更重要的是,父母应该鼓励孩子们在反复做同一项任务(比如浇水或挖土)时zone out。这能让他们的思维自由驰骋,从而找到内心的宁静时刻)”可知,父母应该鼓励孩子们在反复做浇水或挖土等任务时放松自己,这可以让他们的思想自由放松,帮助他们找到片刻的宁静。由此可推测,“zone out”的意思应是“放松”故选A。
15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Whether your garden is below a city window or in a big backyard, getting kids involved in, tending plants can be a powerful teaching tool for subjects like science, math, and reading. But the art of growing things can also develop important life skills in children(无论你的花园是在城市窗户下还是在大后院里,让孩子们参与照料植物都可以成为教授科学、数学和阅读等学科的有力工具。但种植作物的艺术也能培养孩子们重要的生活技能)”、第三段中的“Additionally, working in a garden helps children experience various sounds, smells, and sights. The various sense experiences— the feel and smell of dirt, the sound and sight of water —help them focus on the moment and bring calm to them(此外,在花园里劳动能让孩子们体验到各种声音、气味和景象。各种感官体验——泥土的触感和气味,水的声音和景象——帮助他们专注于当下,使他们平静下来)”以及最后一段“When kids realize that a garden is full of living things that need their help to survive, they can develop a sense of caring and thoughtfulness. Sometimes, a garden can also grow kindness, responsibility, and other values in kids(当孩子们意识到花园里充满了需要他们帮助才能生存的生物时,他们就能培养出关爱和体贴的品质。有时候,一个花园还能在孩子们心中种下善良、责任感以及其他价值观的种子)”可知,本文主要讲述了园艺活动对儿童的多方面益处,包括学习科目、培养生活技能等。因此D项“园艺对于儿童:比你所知道的更多”可以作为本文最佳标题。故选D。

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。
How to Avoid Sleepiness While Studying
Have you ever found yourself nodding off (打瞌睡) although you have a test the next day? ____16____. It’s quite natural for students to have such an experience. And here are some tips to help you out!
Get out of your comfort zone
Research has found that your learning environment, including factors like lighting and noise significantly impacts how you study. So step outside of your comfort zone. Literally! ____17____. Instead, go to a library, or even outside in nature to activate that “study time” state.
Switch tasks at times
____18____. That’s why switching up your tasks at times can prevent your mind from wandering. You could begin with one type of studying and move on to another type after 30 or 40 minutes. If you use this approach, I’m sure you’ll be on the right track!
____19____
You’ll be happy to hear that power naps (小睡) are a good thing! They can bring various benefits such as enhanced long-term memory and increased creativity. The ideal time for a power nap is between 12:30 p. m. and 2 p. m. But if you have no choice but to wait until later in the day, a 10-minute power nap will also work without messing up your schedule.
Use something as a guide while reading
Sometimes, using a guide to focus on can help you stay alert. For example, try using your finger or pen as a guide while reading your notes. You can also use other suitable items you have on hand. ____20____.
A. Take power naps
B. If so, don’t worry
C. Increase time for power naps
D. Don’t study in noisy or bright rooms
E. Avoid any place you associate with naps or sleep
F. Doing too much of one thing can become exhausting
G. This will help you concentrate and prevent daydreaming
【答案】16. B 17. E 18. F 19. A 20. G
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了如何在学习时避免犯困,给出了走出舒适区、适时切换任务、小睡、阅读时用引导物等建议。
【16题详解】
根据上文“Have you ever found yourself nodding off (打瞌睡) although you have a test the next day? (你是否曾经发现自己尽管第二天有考试却还是打瞌睡呢?)”可知,本段以一个问题开头,询问读者是否有学习时犯困的情况,本空要对这种打瞌睡的情况进行回应。根据下文“It’s quite natural for students to have such an experience. (学生有这样的经历是很自然的。)”可知,这里是在安慰读者,让读者不要担心。故B选项“If so, don’t worry (如果是这样,别担心)”承上启下,既回答了上文的提问,又与下文构成因果关系,符合语境。故选B。
【17题详解】
根据上文“Research has found that your learning environment, including factors like lighting and noise significantly impacts how you study. So step outside of your comfort zone. Literally! (研究发现,你的学习环境,包括光线和噪音等因素,会显著影响你的学习方式。所以要走出你的舒适区。真的!)”和下文“Instead, go to a library, or even outside in nature to activate that “study time” state. (相反,去图书馆,甚至到户外的大自然中去,激活那种“学习时间”的状态。)”可知,上文作者建议读者走出自己的舒适区,而后文则以“instead (相反)”开头,紧接着建议读者去图书馆或者户外来激活自己的学习状态,由此推断,空处否定一个不可取的做法,即本空应该是说不要在舒适的地方学习。故E选项“Avoid any place you associate with naps or sleep (避免任何你会联想到小睡或睡觉的地方)”能承上启下,符合题意。故选E。
【18题详解】
根据下文“That’s why switching up your tasks at times can prevent your mind from wandering. (这就是为什么有时切换你的任务可以防止你的思想开小差。)”可知,本空与下文构成因果关系,即本空要解释为什么要切换任务。故F选项“Doing too much of one thing can become exhausting (做太多同一件事会让人疲惫不堪)”能引出下文,符合题意。故选F。
【19题详解】
本句位于小标题处,是对整段内容的高度概括。根据下文“You’ll be happy to hear that power naps (小睡) are a good thing! They can bring various benefits such as enhanced long-term memory and increased creativity. (你会很高兴听到小睡是一件好事!它们可以带来各种好处,比如增强长期记忆力和提高创造力。)”可知,这一段主要在讲小睡的好处,所以本空应该是建议进行小睡。故A选项“power naps (高质量的小睡)”能概括段落内容,符合题意。故选A。
【20题详解】
根据上文“Sometimes, using a guide to focus on can help you stay alert. For example, try using your finger or pen as a guide while reading your notes. You can also use other suitable items you have on hand. (有时,使用一个引导物来集中注意力可以帮助你保持警觉。例如,在阅读笔记时,试着用你的手指或笔作为引导物。你也可以使用你手头的其他合适物品。)”可知,这里在说使用引导物帮助集中注意力,所以本空应该是进一步说明这样做的好处。故G选项“This will help you concentrate and prevent daydreaming (这将帮助你集中注意力,防止做白日梦)”能承接上文,对前文做法的原因的解释,符合题意。故选G。

47. 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。
One sunny day, Alex, a young boy, was walking home from school when he noticed something unusual. A small, scruffy (邋遢的) dog was sitting alone by the side of the road, its eyes full of fear and confusion. The poor dog looked lost and hungry. Alex felt a sense of empathy (同情) in his heart as he walked towards the dog slowly, offering it a piece of his sandwich.
The moment the dog cautiously took the food from his hand, Alex’s heart melted. He could see that the dog was alone and scared, and he knew he couldn’t just leave it there. Without a second thought, Alex decided to take the dog home. He carefully hid the dog in the garage, hoping his father wouldn’t find out.
For days, Alex spent all his spare time in the garage, playing with the dog. He named the dog Max, and they quickly became close friends. Their bond grew stronger day by day as they shared countless adventures together. Max brought so much joy into Alex’s life.
One day, Alex’s father discovered their secret. He was surprised and told the boy to put Max back on the street, thinking it was for the best. With a heavy heart, Alex did as he was told. He left Max at the park, hoping that someone else would find him and give him a loving home. But as he walked away, his heart ached with sadness, tears welling up in his eyes.
Alex was heartbroken. He missed Max terribly and found it hard to focus on anything else. His grades started to slip (下滑), and he became quiet and silent. His usual cheerfulness had disappeared, replaced by deep sadness that seemed to swallow him whole. Seeing this, his father realized how much Max meant to Alex.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
The father decided to bring Max back.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The boy took full responsibility for Max.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】The father decided to bring Max back. He went to extraordinary lengths to search for the dog in the nearby blocks but in vain. It suddenly crossed his mind that maybe Max would have returned to the park. He breathed a sigh of relief the moment he saw Max wandering in the park. The setting sun cast an orange glow over them. Exhausted but joyful, the father brought Max home. At the sight of Max, so amazed was Alex that he rushed forward, knelt down and hugged Max tight, his eyes twinkling with excitement. From then on, Max became an integral part of their family.
The boy took full responsibility for Max. Tiring as feeding, bathing and walking Max were, he gained a great sense of accomplishment from these puppy care chores. The days of Max’s company witnessed Alex’s heartier laughter and gradual academic progress. It dawned on the father that Max helped Alex build confidence and taught him about responsibility and compassion. Had it not been for this experience, Alex would have never known the bond between humans and animals is built on love, trust and mutual respect, enriching both lives.
【解析】

When photojournalist Jasper Doest arrived in the Transylvanian Alps to document the coexistence of humans and wildlife for his film, he planned on shooting in the forest of the Southern Carpathian woods. “It’s a beautiful mountain landscape with the forests — a very wild place,” says Doest. Instead, he found a story on the side of the road — he got up close and personal with a group of bears begging for food.
While driving on a mountain pass, Doest realized the bears hanging around on the roadside were waiting for human handouts. He stopped to observe the bears, but when he rolled down his window, a large brown bear headed directly for the vehicle and made his move, waiting for a tasty treat. “This is the shot,” thought Doest. He forced his fingers to press the button, getting six shots — one clear, five unclear. Then he realized just how close he’d been to the animal and its possible dangers.
The region’s brown bears are usually shy around people. It takes just a few meals to get hooked on human food. And, after that, they don’t stay wild long. They began to depend on humans for existence. Doest changed his ideas to the assignment after meeting a tourist who proudly told him she’d been feeding bears on the roadside in the conservation area. “It was the saddest thing,” he says. “It made us realize the bears had completely changed their behavior.”
In the days that followed Doest saw other examples of how tourists’ handouts had changed the delicate ecosystem they were visiting. As he watched people feeding bears snacks like doughnuts, he realized the story of conservation in the region was as much about people as wildlife. “It’s about how to accept nature in our lives, and how we could benefit if we do it the right way,” he says. So don’t feed the bears, says Doest — you could save an animal’s life, and a community’s commitment to wildlife conservation, along the way.
4. Why did Doest go to the Transylvanian Alps?
A. To go hunting. B. To prepare for his film. C. To go travelling. D. To interview visitors.
5. What can we infer from paragraph 2?
A. Doest was never afraid of bears. B. Doest was impatient with the bear.
C. Doest wasn’t good at photographing. D. Doest felt thrilled when taking pictures.
6. What effect will humans’ feeding bring to the brown bears?
A. They tend to become humans’ pets. B. They have a higher risk of getting ill.
C. They are likely to attack people for food. D. They will become too dependent on humans.
7. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To promote his new documentary. B. To record his encounter with bears.
C. To call on people not to feed wildlife. D. To attract more visitors to help bears.
C
Many companies have advertised a feature in their newer phones that lets users use AI as a recipe generator (生成器) assistant.
With AI-generated recipes, casual cooks may risk a terrible meal or a life-threatening situation. Last year, Forbes reported that one AI recipe generator produced a recipe for “aromatic (芳香的) water mix”. The recipe actually produced deadly chlorine gas.
For food bloggers and recipe developers this technology can threaten their livelihood. Sarah and Kaitlin Leung are sisters who set up The Woks of Life, a food blog focused on sharing “recipes, kitchen exploits, and travels”. After an idea is formed, they will test a recipe up to 40times. “These companies are taking content created by real people to train their AI models, and then competing directly with those same people. So it’s a huge sort of existential threat,” Sarah says.
Andrew Olson, a software engineer who develops recipes for his food blog, One Ingredient Chef, sees it differently. “So much of recipe development is getting inspiration from other recipes,” he says. “They’re not reproducing it word for word.” On his website, users can input a list of ingredients to generate a recipe that looks just like one from a cookbook. Each recipe even includes a headnote with a sense-based description of the final product and suggestions for when and where to serve each dish. Advanced versions of the software even generate images of what the recipe’s final product could look like.
“I think food bloggers could use AI to be more creative, to come up with new ideas,” he says. “But I don’t think the technology is there to the point where you can have an entirely AI-generated blog, although that would be a cool concept. Maybe someone should try it and see how it goes.” Olson adds.
8. What problem can AI recipe generators cause?
A. Higher costs of phones. B. Accidents in cooking.
C. Threat to recipe companies. D. Unemployment of assistants.
9. What is Sarah’s attitude towards AI-generated recipes?
A. Negative. B. Unclear. C. Favourable. D. Objective.
10. What does One Ingredient Chef feature?
A. It tests its recipes up to 40 times. B. It sends a real cookbook to users.
C. It gives suggestions on a healthy dish. D. It produces the final product’s pictures.
11. What do Olson’s words imply in the last paragraph?
A AI should be banned from generating recipes.
B. AI recipe generators can replace food bloggers.
C. Entirely AI-generated recipes are widely available.
D. The use of AI technology needs further development.
D
Whether your garden is below a city window or in a big backyard, getting kids involved in, tending plants can be a powerful teaching tool for subjects like science, math, and reading. But the art of growing things can also develop important life skills in children.
Being patient is something many children struggle with, but also helps a kid stay calm in stressful situations. Life is a mixture of immediate and delayed satisfaction, so children benefit from learning both. Good things come at the end of a growing season — like yummy fruit or pretty flowers — but kids have to wait for them. For longer-growth plants, kids can create a garden journal to document the progress of their young plants with words, drawings, or photos.
Additionally, working in a garden helps children experience various sounds, smells, and sights. The various sense experiences — the feel and smell of dirt, the sound and sight of water — help them focus on the moment and bring calm to them. At that moment, “they realize they have the power to control their big feelings and thoughts,” says child therapist Jennifer Couture. More importantly, parents should encourage kids to zone out while they’re doing a task again and again such as watering or digging. This can allow their minds to go freely, helping them find a moment of peace.
When kids realize that a garden is full of living things that need their help to survive, they can develop a sense of caring and thoughtfulness. Sometimes, a garden can also grow kindness, responsibility, and other values in kids.
12. How can kids learn to be patient from gardening?
A. By reading a garden journal. B. By appreciating pretty things.
C. By struggling with difficulties. D. By waiting for good things for long.
13. What can calm kids while they are gardening?

One sunny day, Alex, a young boy, was walking home from school when he noticed something unusual. A small, scruffy (邋遢的) dog was sitting alone by the side of the road, its eyes full of fear and confusion. The poor dog looked lost and hungry. Alex felt a sense of empathy (同情) in his heart as he walked towards the dog slowly, offering it a piece of his sandwich.
The moment the dog cautiously took the food from his hand, Alex’s heart melted. He could see that the dog was alone and scared, and he knew he couldn’t just leave it there. Without a second thought, Alex decided to take the dog home. He carefully hid the dog in the garage, hoping his father wouldn’t find out.
For days, Alex spent all his spare time in the garage, playing with the dog. He named the dog Max, and they quickly became close friends. Their bond grew stronger day by day as they shared countless adventures together. Max brought so much joy into Alex’s life.
One day, Alex’s father discovered their secret. He was surprised and told the boy to put Max back on the street, thinking it was for the best. With a heavy heart, Alex did as he was told. He left Max at the park, hoping that someone else would find him and give him a loving home. But as he walked away, his heart ached with sadness, tears welling up in his eyes.
Alex was heartbroken. He missed Max terribly and found it hard to focus on anything else. His grades started to slip (下滑), and he became quiet and silent. His usual cheerfulness had disappeared, replaced by deep sadness that seemed to swallow him whole. Seeing this, his father realized how much Max meant to Alex.
注意:
