The Advisor offers on-demand comments to students practicing public speaking from anywhere. This flexibility benefits instructors,who can be as hands-on or hands-off during practice.While students can operate autonomously with the tool,instructors can also choose to keep track of students'progress. Criteria Using machine learning models,the Pops Advisor analyzes the following criteria: Delivery Introduction Body Conclusion Vocal Style Credibility Support Vocal Quality Attention Language Signaling Ending Vocal Filler Central Idea Connective Summary Eye Contact Preview Credibility Memorable Ending Body Language Connective Organization Credibility Feedback The presenter receives feedback on the above four categories.And this feedback is given in the following formats: ·Recommendations To provide presenters with valuable feedback for the next practice,recommendations focus on specific aspects needing improvement.For instance,the recommendation can be "Your message is clear, but be sure you are grabbing your audience's attention in your introduction to ensure they are listening." ·Speech Metrics(指标) Useful speech metrics serve as quantitative descriptors on several aspects of the presentation including number of words,total presentation time,speaking rate and vocal fillers percentage. Pops Advisor can be used in any classroom setting where students are presenting,particularly in the 2 Basic Public Speaking Course.When you are considering what can be achieved by your students toward skill development in a single school semester,Advisor increases the overall development. 21.What is the Pops Advisor? A.A voice assistant. B.A video player. C.A time tracker. D.An evaluation tool. 22.Which of the following categories provides feedback on facial expressions? A.Delivery. B.Introduction. C.Body. D.Conclusion. 23.Who is the text intended for? A.Lab technicians. B.Public speech instructors. C.Foreign language learners. D.Artificial Intelligence engineers. B The boat ride from Helsinki's city center to the island of Pihlajasaari takes only 10 minutes and drops off visitors at beaches for sunbathing.But I had a different mission:to speak to a tree. This was meant to be a healing exercise,one championed by the Finnish biologist Adela Pajunen. Finns,she'd told me,sometimes share their worries aloud to trees or birds.On shore,I spotted a short black alder tree and began to tell the tree my troubles.The leaves rustled in response,a sign I interpreted as sympathy. I had come to Finland to see whether I could bring happiness back to America with me.Finland has topped the World Happiness Report for the past eight years,largely due to free education and universal health care.And the Finns also find happiness in more attainable ways,such as their close relationship with nature and visiting the sauna (daily.These activities contain similar goals:Stay present and seek a minimalist lifestyle that relies on the earth. I followed their lifestyle-visiting the sauna and taking a relaxing forest walk,and happiness came in waves over the next few days.I was optimistic that I could recreate the happiest moments of this trip back home in New York.How hard could it be,really? As it turned out,happiness was a luxury in America,though I tried hard to live exactly like the Finns.Then one afternoon,I had a breakthrough as I rushed through Central Park and noticed a crowd of people staring at the ground.A cardinal!I stopped to admire the bird's feather before it flew away.This was a win for staying present.I'd been so stuck trying to find the time and money for happiness that I'd missed the point:Quiet the mind,and find pleasure in small acts and observations-like a cardinal taking flight,or talking to trees-right then and there. As I left the park,I carried out a small but comforting ritual ()I'd developed.I thanked the trees for listening. 24.Why did the author speak to a tree? A.To heal the tree. B.To seek happiness. C.To follow a tradition. D.To appreciate nature. 25.What do we know about the Finnish lifestyle? A.It requires daily sauna visits. B.It values close relationships. C.It is easily adopted elsewhere. D.It focuses on simple pleasures. 26.Why couldn't the author recreate happy moments back in America? A.She was busy with work. B.It was noisy in New York. C.She forgot to stay present. D.It was expensive to live there. 27.Which of the following best describes the author's trip to Finland? A.Transformative. B.Challenging. C.Adventurous. D.Unexpected. C Nations with large amounts of wind and solar in their power grids(are particularly exposed to rising energy bills due to sharp increases in the gas price.The relationship between decarbonisation and swings in prices has been a controversial(有争议的)issue as governments consider clean energy strategies,but an analysis of power prices has now provided evidence to inform the debate. Vast quantities of wind and solar capacity have been introduced across Europe in recent years,but these power sources are intermittent,generating electricity only when winds blow or the sky is cloudless. Gas power plants,which can be switched on and off relatively easily,are frequently relied on to provide power when renewable generation is low.But gas is often the most expensive source of power, and electricity market rules mean the most expensive generator sets the price for the entire market. Raul Bajo-Buenestado at the University of Navarra and his colleagues found nations with more wind and solar in their power systems were more vulnerable(易受影响)to natural gas price shocks. Spain,for example,has large volumes of solar power and is particularly sensitive to power price changes. "If you have natural gas,wind and solar,this is going to make the perfect cocktail for you to be vulnerable,"says Bajo-Buenestado. It is the need for flexible generation alongside wind and solar that is the issue.Bajo-Buenestado points out that other nations with low-carbon power grids,such as Norway and France,rely on hydropower and nuclear technology,which are reliable generators."We don't see a clear correlation between decarbonisation and sensitivity to natural gas price changes,"he says. Solving the problem will require nations to replace gas as the back-up fuel of choice.One answer is for grid operators to push the power system to become better able to absorb peaks and valleys in generation."The underlying message is that getting a flexible system is now as important as building renewables,"says Michael Grubb at University College London. 28.What does the controversial issue in the first paragraph refer to? A.How rising gas prices will affect power grids. B.Which countries may face higher energy bills C.What should be included in clean energy strategies. D.Whether carbon cuts are linked to varying power prices. 29.What does the underlined word"intermittent"in paragraph 2 probably mean? A.Faulty. B.Costly. C.Unstable. D.Inefficient. 30.Why is natural gas still needed in high-renewable-energy systems? A.It helps lower energy costs. B.It can quickly fill gaps in supply. C.It ensures consistent market prices. D.It is a key driver of energy innovation. 31.What might be an ideal combination of power sources? A.Solar and gas. B.Nuclear and gas. C.Solar and wind. D.Nuclear and wind. D In cultures worldwide,toys have been used to teach children about the society they live in. Recent research reveals that giving the wrong toys may have contributed to the downfall of the Norse settlers who came to Greenland from Iceland. Arriving in 985,the Norse thrived for a few centuries but was forced to abandon Greenland by 1400 In contrast,the Inuit people,arriving around 1000,endured long after the Norse left.This difference has 4 puzzled archaeologists for decades.One idea was that the Norse did not eat more seafood when farming conditions worsened.But studies of Norse teeth show that they did turn to the ocean for food. Archaeologists agree that the Inuits adapted successfully while the Norse did not,but nobody knows why. To try to answer the question,the researchers looked at as many toys as they could find that had once been played with by the children of either culture.The Norse settlements yielded 72.The Inuit settlements,located in similar environmental conditions,yielded 2,397.The researchers then assigned each toy to one of five categories,including toys of weapons,tools,forms of transport,for social play and for skill play.They also determined approximate times for when the toys were made. The categorisation process revealed that the Inuit children not only had more toys available to them, but that these toys were more diverse.Most importantly,it was found that the differences in the number and diversity of toys grew dramatically over time. As the years went by,toys associated with hunting at sea became more common among the Inuit, but the Norse continued to give their children figurines of horses and birds.In essence,say the researchers,the Norse were adapting their lives to their new environment but continuing to gift old-fashioned toys. Though the lack of toys may indicate that Norse society was less creative from the start,the researchers argue that their tendency to give irrelevant toys intensified any initial lack of creativity and ultimately reduced their chances of survival.In contrast,the Inuits'preference for diverse and relevant toys paved the way for their children to be more innovative and adaptive.A lesson for parents if ever there was one. 32.What did the toy study aim to further investigate? A.The Norse's dietary change. B.The Norse's failure to endure. C.The Inuits'fishing advantage. D.The Inuits'success in farming. 33.What was a major advantage that Inuit toys had over Norse toys? A.Safety. B.Diversity. C.Interactivity. D.Portability. 34.What lesson can modern parents draw from the study? A.Offer a wide range of learning opportunities. B.Emphasize toys that promote imagination. C.Choose toys that develop real-world skills. D.Encourage cooperative role-playing games. 35.Which of the following best reflects the main idea of the text? A.Survival is a case of child's play B.Sticking to cultural essence is vital. C.Innovation comes naturally over time. D.Cultural adaptation relies on children. 第二节（共5小题：每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空自处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选 项。 Orienteering:My Life-long Passion Orienteering is a timed event across a mostly natural landscape,where participants navigate through a series of checkpoints along the way.The route from one checkpoint to the next isn't marked.36 Beyond mere exercise,orienteering builds physical endurance and mental sharpness,with each move requiring split-second judgement. 5 At the age of ten my family moved to a new town and I changed to a new school.In my new class there was an orienteer and I joined him in the practices.Now 50 years later,I still do orienteering! I have always enjoyed nature.Growing up in a village on the forest's edge,I spent my childhood in nature,playing,walking,and skiing.37 When I started with orienteering,I was the first in our family.But soon afterwards my parents realized that instead of just driving me to the practices and competitions,they could just as well participate themselves.We have always been out walking in the forest,but their participation opened up a new dimension.38 With a lot of discussions driving to the competitions,about anything,and the analysis after the race,our family bonds grew stronger. 39 In most cases the competitions are in new areas where I have never been and would never go to otherwise,each offering unique landscapes to explore. But maybe the best part is that each race is a new challenge.No one runs the same course twice,so each time there are new challenges.Orienteering is for life.40 A.Nature offers countless things for us to explore B.The event also requires accurate map-reading skills. C.I hope I will be able to continue for many years to come. D.Each participant decides the best route on the run or walk. E.I think that orienteering is a perfect activity for the family. F.I also appreciate how orienteering connects us to different places. G.Such experiences laid the foundation for my love of outdoor activities. 第三部分语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题，每题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I love everything about our restaurant La Salle Rouge.In the kitchen,the crash of forks and knives hitting the heavy plates almost 41 Mom's voice calling me."Lainey?Lai-ney!"42,I look up to see my mother standing across the kitchen."Homework?"Mom mouths the word,pointing to the side door.I roll my eyes-I 43 the thought of leaving the kitchen to 44 with my math homework in Mom's office.

The Student Union 第二节（满分25分） 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。 Jason held his script too tightly,making the pages wrinkle.His palms had left damp marks on his Of Mice and Men script.Across the rehearsal room,Liam was doing his usual annoying trick- balancing a pencil on his nose during rehearsals-for the third time this week. Last year,they were great partners when they acted in The Outsiders together.Their rooftop "Stay gold"scene even got featured in the school newsletter.But now,everything changed. The trouble started during rehearsals.Jason insisted on following the book's exact gestures.But Liam kept adding new moves-hugging an invisible puppy during serious lines,pretending to trip over “rabbits”. "Lennie wouldn't do that!"Jason whispered angrily after a rehearsal. "At least my Lennie wouldn't sound like a human tape recorder,"Liam snapped back. Their fight grew bigger every day.Liam put vinegar in Jason's water bottle.Jason"accidentally" locked Liam's favorite script in the storage room.Their teacher even put up a sign sayingNO MORE FOOD FIGHTS"after they threw ketchup packets at each other. The exploding moment came during their final practice.During the barn scene,Liam suddenly howled like a wolf.The younger students laughed loudly.Jason was so mad that he ran off the stage- and crashed right into the wooden chairs,breaking three of them. That night,Jason couldn't sleep.He kept thinking about how Liam used to gently push his shoulder before scary scenes to encourage him.At 1 a.m.,he got on his bike and rode back to school. The storage room light was on.Inside,Liam was sitting on the floor,trying to fix the broken chairs. Next to him was a chocolate bar-the kind Jason always ate. Jason froze,his eyes wide with a mix of astonishment and guilt when he realized it was the chairs he had kicked and broken."Liam....I...I didn't think I'd see you here fixing these,"Jason stammered,his voice barely above a whisper. Liam kept his head low,"Yeah,well,someone had to.The show is next week." 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。 Paragraph 1:Jason,at a loss for words but eager to help,grabbed a hammer and nails.
