California, America Using AI to stop fires California uses AI to report wild fire. The AI can find smoke and fire. It uses over a thousand cameras in forests across the state. In two months, AI found 77 fires before any 911 calls came in. Ogasawara Islands, Japan A new island came out An underwater volcano (火山) broke out on October 21,2023. By early November, a new island near Japan came out. The new island was as high as 20 meters above the sea and then it became smaller. Kenya Families left homes Many families in Kenya left their homes because of floods. Trains to and from Mombasa had to stop running. The floods started after heavy rain.

A. natural disasters B. interesting places C. traffic accidents D. tourist cultures B When you visit someone’s new home for the first time, it’s nice to bring a gift. Housewarming gifts may not be as common (普遍) as birthday gifts, but they show one’s kindness. When to give a housewarming gift? The best time to give a housewarming gift is within the first three to six months after someone moves in. When you go to the housewarming party, you should always bring a gift. Even if there’s no party, but you will visit someone’s new home within the first six months after they move in, a gift is still a good idea. Who should get a housewarming gift? Housewarming gifts are not just for people who buy their first home. Anyone moving into a new place would love to get a gift. It’s a nice way to say “welcome and congratulations”. What should be avoided when giving the gift? It’s important to bring the right kind of housewarming gift. But how do you choose one? Try not to give very expensive gifts. Usually the price of a housewarming gift should be between $25 and $50. For example, house plants and picture frames are popular housewarming gifts within this budget (预算). If you don’t know the person’s taste very well, you’d better not send art or furniture. Housewarming gifts are a lovely way to celebrate someone’s new home and make their space comfortable and welcome. The next time you visit a friend’s new home, remember to bring a gift and, of course, follow the rules for gift-giving. 29. According to the passage, we can know housewarming gifts ________. A. are only for the first house B. should show names on them C. are the same as birthday gifts D. can be given within half a year 30.

More than 20 third grade students from the Affiliated Primary School of Hunan Normal University have joined in the course. Many language professors at universities such as Hunan Normal University, Central South University and Changsha Normal University are teaching the course. Besides the skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing, students will also get knowledge about idioms, rhymes, figures of speech and culture behind the dialect, according to Luo Xinru from Hunan Normal University, one of the teachers of the course. “Lots of young children have not learned how to speak local dialects,” she said. “That’s why the country has started to protect different language resources in recent years,” she added. The Ministry of Education (教育部) carried out the National Language Resource Protection Project in 2015 to do some surveys and better protect its language resources. Our country has set up the largest language resource center in the world, according to the ministry. Luo said speaking Putonghua and using dialects are not contradictory (相互矛盾的) and children have the ability to speak them at the same time. “Dialect protection is very important and different dialects which carry different cultures and meanings should not and will not go missing,” Luo said, “we do not expect all children taking the course to learn perfect Changsha dialect, but they should understand the importance of different dialects and perhaps be willing to do the research and protection of them as they grow older.” 37. What does the underlined word “professors” mean in paragraph 2? A. Workers. B. Teachers. C. Speakers. D. Learners. 38. Paragraph 3 mainly talks about ________.

A. To ask schools to teach dialects. B. To teach students Chinese culture. C. To help students speak Putonghua. D. To tell people the importance of dialects. 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺连贯，其中有两项是多余选项。 The Chinese TV show To the Wonder makes more people know about Altay.

Housewarming gifts may not be as common (普遍) as birthday gifts, but they show one’s kindness. When to give a housewarming gift? The best time to give a housewarming gift is within the first three to six months after someone moves in. When you go to the housewarming party, you should always bring a gift. Even if there’s no party, but you will visit someone’s new home within the first six months after they move in, a gift is still a good idea. Who should get a housewarming gift? Housewarming gifts are not just for people who buy their first home. Anyone moving into a new place would love to get a gift. It’s a nice way to say “welcome and congratulations”. What should be avoided when giving the gift? It’s important to bring the right kind of housewarming gift. But how do you choose one? Try not to give very expensive gifts. Usually the price of a housewarming gift should be between $25 and $50. For example, house plants and picture frames are popular housewarming gifts within this budget (预算). If you don’t know the person’s taste very well, you’d better not send art or furniture. Housewarming gifts are a lovely way to celebrate someone’s new home and make their space comfortable and welcome.
