The first project is the Pops Advisor which provides an automatic evaluation of students’ video presentations with visual feedback. 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 Vocal Quality Vocal Filler Eye Contact Body Language Credibility Attention Central Idea Preview Connective Support Language Connective Credibility Organization Signaling Ending Summary Memorable Ending 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 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. 1. What is the Pops Advisor? A. A voice assistant. B. A video player. C. A time tracker. D. An evaluation tool. 2. Which of the following categories provides feedback on facial expressions? A. Delivery. B. Introduction. C. Body. D.

From a young age, she was often told what she couldn’t do, but Sarah was determined to show the world what she could achieve. After being rejected from multiple jobs because of her disability, she decided to found Ocean Breeze Crafts, a sustainable handmade goods business, to demonstrate that her disability would never define her limits. Ocean Breeze Crafts began as a small workshop in Sarah’s apartment, but it quickly grew into a flourishing (繁荣的) business. Today, her eco-friendly products, including handmade jewelry and home decorations, are sold in shops across the country. However, Sarah’s mission goes far beyond creating beautiful items. She offered employment opportunities to individuals with disabilities. Sarah believes that everyone deserves a chance to contribute, regardless of their challenges. Each employee at Ocean Breeze Crafts is trained in various aspects of the business, from designing products to managing orders, helping them gain valuable skills and confidence. One of the company’s most innovative initiatives is its “Sign & Design” program, where product packaging includes simple sign language instructions to enhance understanding of the deaf community. This program reflects Sarah’s passion for bridging the gap between the hearing and hearing-impaired worlds. She hopes these small steps will encourage broader conversations about inclusivity. Ocean Breeze Crafts also reinvests its profits in the community. A part of the earnings funds sign language workshops for local schools, job training programs for disabled individuals, and sustainability projects. Sarah’s vision is not just about running a successful business — it’s about creating lasting change. She dreams of a world where people with disabilities are valued for their abilities, not judged by their limitations.

Unlike the moon, Earth’s primary companion which has accompanied our planet for around 4.5 billion years, this “new mini-moon” will stick around for just two months before it heads back to its home in an asteroid belt following our planet and orbiting the sun. A team of scientists spotted 2024 PT5 as they routinely monitored newly discovered objects around Earth. “The asteroid paying us a visit belongs to the Arjuna asteroid belt, a secondary asteroid belt made of space rocks that follow the orbit very similar to that of Earth at an average distance to the sun of about 150 million kilometers,” said research lead author Carlos de la Fuente Marcos. Marcos explained that some of these asteroids in the Arjuna asteroid belt can approach Earth at a close range of around 4.5 million kilometers and at low speeds of around 3,540 kilometers per hour. “Under these conditions, one of these asteroids may be captured by Earth’s gravity and become a temporary moon of Earth. The asteroid 2024 PT5 will undergo this process for about two months,” Marcos added. “It will not follow a full orbit around Earth.” Mini-moon events come in two flavors. The first is about long episodes during which the asteroid completes one or more revolutions about our planet, with these gravitational engagements (引力作用) lasting one or more years. The second type of episodes is short engagements in which the small body does not complete one full revolution. These temporary captures can last just days, weeks or even a few months. Short mini-moon events are relatively frequent, with several events happening per decade. Long mini-moon events, on the other hand, are rare with Earth experiencing one around every ten or twenty years. Unfortunately, during its occupation around Earth, 2024 PT5 won’t be visible to the vast majority of sky watchers. “The asteroid is too small and dark for typical amateur telescopes. However, it is well within the brightness range of typical telescopes by professional astronomers,” Marcos said. 8. How long will the asteroid 2024 PT5 stay near Earth? A. Over a decade. B. About two months. C. Less than a week. D. Around 4.5 billion years. 9. What makes 2024 PT5 a “mini moon” rather than a true moon? A. It lacks a stable orbit around Earth. B. It is smaller than other asteroids. C. It moves faster than Earth’s moon. D. It reflects too little light to be seen. 10. What writing technique is used to explain mini-moon events? A. Definition. B. Classification. C. Comparison. D. Illustration. 11. What can we infer from Marcos’ words from the last paragraph? A. The asteroid 2024 PT5 is unusually bright. B. Sky watchers should purchase advanced telescopes. C. Professional knowledge is needed for asteroid observation. D. Amateur telescopes are not powerful to observe 2024 PT5. 【答案】8. B 9. A 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了新发现的小行星2024 PT5将在地球附近停留大约两个月，对这颗小行星的情况进行了说明。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Unlike the moon, Earth’s primary companion which has accompanied our planet for around 4.5 billion years, this “new mini-moon” will stick around for just two months before it heads back to its home in an asteroid belt following our planet and orbiting the sun. (月球是地球的主要伴星，已经陪伴地球大约45亿年了。与月球不同的是，这颗“新的迷你卫星”将在地球上停留两个月，然后就会回到它位于小行星带的家，它跟着地球绕太阳运行。)”可知，2024 PT5小行星将在地球附近停留大约两个月。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The asteroid 2024 PT5 will undergo this process for about two months,” Marcos added. “It will not follow a full orbit around Earth.” (小行星2024 PT5将经历这一过程大约两个月，”马科斯补充道。“它不会沿着环绕地球的完整轨道运行。”)”可知，2024 PT5是“迷你月球”而不是真正的月球因为它没有一个稳定的绕地球轨道。故选A。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Mini-moon events come in two flavors. The first is about long episodes during which the asteroid completes one or more revolutions about our planet, with these gravitational engagements (引力作用) lasting one or more years. The second type of episodes is short engagements in which the small body does not complete one full revolution. These temporary captures can last just days, weeks or even a few months. Short mini-moon events are relatively frequent, with several events happening per decade. Long mini-moon events, on the other hand, are rare with Earth experiencing one around every ten or twenty years. (迷你月亮活动有两种形式。第一种是关于小行星绕地球一周或多次的长时间事件，这些引力作用持续一年或更长时间。第二种类型的情节是短暂的交战，其中小身体没有完成一次完整的旋转。这些临时捕获可能只持续几天、几周甚至几个月。短暂的小月亮事件相对频繁，每十年发生几次。另一方面，地球每十年或二十年就会经历一次长时间的小月亮事件，这是罕见的。)”可知，通过分类法来解释小月亮事件。故选B。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The asteroid is too small and dark for typical amateur telescopes. However, it is well within the brightness range of typical telescopes by professional astronomers (对于典型的业余望远镜来说，这颗小行星太小、太暗了。然而，它完全在专业天文学家使用的典型望远镜的亮度范围内)”可知，业余望远镜不够强大，无法观测2024 PT5。故选D。 D One of the top sources of added sugar in children’s diets in America is in their breakfast cereal (麦片). A study published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine shows that advertising drives sales of high-sugar cereals when it’s aimed directly at kids under 12-but not when it targets adults. In the study, researchers looked at all cereals purchased by 77,000 U.S. households over a nine-year period, between 2008 and 2017. They also looked at Nielsen ratings data, which closely monitored all the ads that people in a household saw-both children and adults. What they found was a strong relationship between how much advertising was targeted to kids and how much sugary cereal that households with children bought. By contrast, there was no link to increased purchases when ads targeted adults. And these extensive data also showed that behaviors that were learned in childhood could track into adulthood, which could lead to poor health outcomes over a lifetime. The study is the first to directly compare the influence of food advertising exposure by children with that of adults. The findings offer novel evidence of how food marketing turns children into the “ultimate weapon” in influencing family spending because they consistently ask their parents to purchase a concept known as “pester power”. The food industry launched the Children’s Food and Beverage Advertising Initiative, a voluntary effort to police itself. The 21 participating food companies made a commitment to cut back on marketing unhealthy foods to children under 12 — later revised to under 13. A new study conducted in 2024 showed that children’s exposure to cereal ads on TV programming aimed at kids has dropped dramatically. But Lindsey Smith Taillie, a food policy researcher at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, says these voluntary efforts aren’t making a difference. Advertisements, like kids’ eyeballs, are moving online, making it even harder to know what marketing children are being exposed to, Taillie notes. 12. What did the study find about child-targeted food ads? A. They had no connection with adults’ purchases. B. They were less effective than adult-targeted ads. C. They might affect children’s health in the long run. D. They could reduce children’s interest in sugary food. 13. What does the underlined phrase “pester power” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Parents’ unconditional love. B. Children’s uncontrolled spending. C. Parents’ growing consumption. D. Children’s repeated purchase requests. 14. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. An expectation for further study. B. The follow-up influence of the study. C. A limitation of the research method. D. The potential application of the findings. 15. What is Tallie’s attitude toward the voluntary efforts? A. Favorable. B. Tolerant. C. Disapproving. D. Reserved. 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了针对儿童的高糖麦片广告对家庭购买行为的影响及其长期健康危害，并讨论了相关政策效果与局限性。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“What they found was a strong relationship between how much advertising was targeted to kids and how much sugary cereal that households with children bought. By contrast, there was no link to increased purchases when ads targeted adults. And these extensive data also showed that behaviors that were learned in childhood could track into adulthood, which could lead to poor health outcomes over a lifetime. (他们发现，针对儿童的广告投放量与有孩子的家庭购买的高糖麦片的数量之间存在着紧密的联系。相比之下，当广告以成年人为目标群体时，广告投放量与家庭购买量的增加没有关联。而且这些广泛的数据还表明，童年时期养成的行为习惯会延续到成年，这可能会在一生中导致不良的健康后果)”可知，研究发现针对儿童的食品广告可能会影响儿童的长期健康。故选C。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据画线短语所在句“The findings offer novel evidence of how food marketing turns children into the “ultimate weapon” in influencing family spending because they consistently ask their parents to purchase a concept known as “pester power”. (这些研究结果为食品营销如何将儿童变成影响家庭消费的“终极武器”提供了新的证据，因为孩子们会不断要求父母购买，这就是所谓的pester power)”可知，研究发现食品营销如何将儿童变成影响家庭消费的“终极武器”，因为孩子们不断地要求父母购买，即画线短语“pester power”指的是孩子们反复的购买请求。故选D。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“The food industry launched the Children’s Food and Beverage Advertising Initiative, a voluntary effort to police itself. The 21 participating food companies made a commitment to cut back on marketing unhealthy foods to children under 12 — later revised to under 13. A new study conducted in 2024 showed that children’s exposure to cereal ads on TV programming aimed at kids has dropped dramatically. (食品行业发起了“儿童食品和饮料广告倡议”，这是一项自愿的自我监管努力。21家参与的食品公司承诺减少向12岁以下儿童推销不健康食品，后来这一年龄限制被修改为13岁以下。2024年进行的一项新研究表明，儿童接触针对儿童的电视节目中的麦片广告大幅减少)”可知，第四段主要讲了研究的后续影响。故选B。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“But Lindsey Smith Taillie, a food policy researcher at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, says these voluntary efforts aren’t making a difference. Advertisements, like kids’ eyeballs, are moving online, making it even harder to know what marketing children are being exposed to, Taillie notes. (但北卡罗来纳大学教堂山分校的食品政策研究员Lindsey Smith Taillie表示，这些自愿的努力并没有起到什么作用。Taillie指出，广告就像孩子们的眼睛一样，正在向网络转移，这使得人们更难知道孩子们接触到了什么样的营销)”可推知，Tallie对自愿的努力持不赞成态度。故选C。 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白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 One of the most common mistakes in communication is trying to do too much. ____16____ There’s no value in delivering any kind of communication, whether written, spoken, formal, or informal, if the message doesn’t come across clearly. Being clear and brief — while maintaining interest and including everything your listeners need to know — is a high-level communication skill. Here are some tips worth following in order to communicate more effectively. Keep your audience in mind. Your audience will naturally be more interested and engaged when you tailor your communications to their interests. ____17____ This will engage their desire to understand and interact with the information. Don’t use ten words when one will do. Even the most engaged and committed audience will eventually get bored. Keeping your message simple and clear will make it easier for people to understand. ____18____ However, they’re hearing it for the first time. Keep it simple. ____19____ If you’ve ever worked as an instructor, manager, trainer or coach, you’ll know that there are few better ways to learn new information than to teach it. Ask the audience to contribute their ideas or to take a role in explaining new concepts and policies to others. Allow them to lead discussions and meetings to develop their communication skills. Consider the best method to deliver your message. If the information you’re communicating isn’t urgent, consider sending an email. Written communication will give your audience more time to review it, think it over, and follow up with questions. ____20____ Building effective communication skills takes time, but the effects are worth the effort. A. Be patient. B. Get the audience involved. C. The best messages are often simple. D. Speak directly to what matters to them. E. You may be surprised by what your listeners offer. F. It will also give them a handy record to refer back to. G. As the speaker, you already know what you’re going to say. 【答案】16. C 17. D 18. G 19. B 20. F 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一些更有效地进行沟通的技巧。 【16题详解】 上文“One of the most common mistakes in communication is trying to do too much.(沟通中最常见的错误之一就是试图做得太多)”指出“做得太多”是沟通中易犯的错误，C选项“The best messages are often simple.(最好的信息往往是简单的)”承接上文，明确正确沟通方法，即不要“做得太多”，要避免复杂，追求简单，句中“simple”与上文“too much”形成对比。故选C项。 【17题详解】 上文“Your audience will naturally be more interested and engaged when you tailor your communications to their interests.(当你根据受众的兴趣来调整你的沟通内容时，他们自然会更感兴趣、更投入)”强调要迎合受众兴趣，D选项“Speak directly to what matters to them.(直接谈论对他们重要的事情)”进一步说明了具体做法，即直接针对受众关心的事情进行交流，与上文逻辑一致。故选D项。 【18题详解】 下文“However, they’re hearing it for the first time.(然而，他们是第一次听到这些)”与设空句之间是转折关系。G选项“As the speaker, you already know what you’re going to say.(作为演讲者，你已经知道你要说什么了)”与下文构成转折，演讲者自己熟悉内容，但听众是初次接触，同时，句中“what you’re going to say”与下文中指示代词“it”构成指代关系，上下文逻辑连贯。故选G项。 【19题详解】 下文“If you’ve ever worked as an instructor, manager, trainer or coach, you’ll know that there are few better ways to learn new information than to teach it. Ask the audience to contribute their ideas or to take a role in explaining new concepts and policies to others.(如果你曾经当过导师、经理、培训师或教练，你就会知道，没有比教别人更好的学习新信息的方法了。让听众贡献他们的想法，或者让他们扮演向他人解释新概念和政策的角色)”建议让受众参与其中，B选项“Get the audience involved.(让受众参与进来)”能概括这部分内容，适合作段首小标题。故选B项。 【20题详解】 上文“If the information you’re communicating isn’t urgent, consider sending an email. Written communication will give your audience more time to review it, think it over, and follow up with questions.(如果你传达的信息不紧急，考虑发电子邮件。书面沟通会给你的受众更多时间来复习、思考，并跟进提问)”说明了发邮件这种书面沟通的好处，F选项“It will also give them a handy record to refer back to.(它还会给他们提供一个方便查阅的记录)”进一步补充了发邮件的另一个好处，与上文逻辑紧密。故选F项。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题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。 When I started my own technology writing business, it began well — I landed my first contract, though I wondered if it was too good to be true.

Panic replaced ____23____ optimism. I stopped answering phones and ____24____ myself in my room. One night, a high school friend called.

I was too stunned to return her fire, so I just ____27____. “What is wrong with you? You are a writer, so start writing for magazines.” she shouted. When I mentioned I was ____28____ about what to write, or even where to submit, she snapped, “____29____ the problem! You always got us out of trouble back then-now do the same for yourself.” The memory had _____30_____ my mind, but she was right about it. Still, I was somewhat _____31_____ and thought for a minute about crossing her off my list. I thought, what is wrong with her? That’s the _____32_____ I get for all the support I’ve given her over the years? With nowhere else to turn, I searched online for magazines accepting _____33_____ by email. I found one, wrote an article and sent it off - mostly to prove my friend wrong. To my surprise, the editor accepted it-and it made the _____34_____! That small win changed something in me.

However, my own experiences tell a different story. During some of the most challenging times of my life, when I was struggling to find proper housing, I worked as an artist on the street. For years, I played my flute (长笛) there, and in doing so, I discovered the natural kindness of people. They showed compassion without expecting anything in return, driven purely by human goodwill. This profound realization took hold when I was 21, living in Sydney. I worked at a local pub, feeling lost and directionless. Amid the chaos of my life, playing the flute was my only constant source of comfort. Looking back, my connection with the flute began when I was 16. Earning a mere $2.35 an hour at the supermarket, I saved for two long years to buy it. Every day after work, playing the flute became my way of processing the day’s emotions. One day, while working at the pub, someone asked me what I was doing that night. “I’m going to be playing the flute at —” I started to say, but then it struck me: I had forgotten to pick up my flute when I got off the train. Panic set in immediately. In a fit of frustration, I threw the plastic chair I was holding across the room. I rushed to the train station, hoping someone had handed in my flute. No luck. Still, I left my number, clinging to the slim hope that it would turn up. Convinced that it was gone forever — after all, I hadn’t even written my name on the case — I spent the next week drowning in self-blame, drinking heavily and feeling sorry for myself. Then, out of the blue, I received a call from CityRail. They had my flute. I hurried to the lost property office at Central Station. And there it was, among all the other lost items. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 As I went to grab it, the guards there asked for my ID. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Desperate and anxious, I said, “What if I play you a tune?” _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: As I went to grab it, the guards there asked for my ID. I froze in my tracks, a wave of panic washing over me. I stammered, telling them I didn’t have any ID on me, and that getting it would be a huge hassle. Despair filled my eyes as I pleaded with them, explaining how precious this flute was to me. It wasn’t just an instrument; it was my connection to a better time, a source of comfort in my otherwise chaotic life. But the guards said, “Well, sorry — you’ve got to have ID to get your flute back.” I stared at the flute, so close yet so out of reach, and held back the tears of frustration that threatened to spill. Desperate and anxious, I said, “What if I play you a tune?” The guards hesitated, but then nodded. I closed my eyes and started playing Greensleeves. As the first notes filled the air, a rush of emotions surged through me. I could feel the guards’ attention on me, and for a moment, the world around us seemed to stand still. When I opened my eyes, I saw that the guards’ expressions had softened. “That’s your flute,” one of them said softly. Without hesitation, I grabbed my flute and walked away, my heart swelling with gratitude. It was a double kindness — first from the person who handed my flute in, and then the guards who broke the rules to let me take it. This experience only reaffirmed my belief in the goodness of people, even in the bustling heart of a big city. 【解析】 【导语】本文以长笛丢失为线索展开，讲述了在悉尼生活的迷茫时期，作者的长笛是唯一的慰藉。一次疏忽作者将它遗落火车站，绝望之际竟被好心人上交。领取时因无证件受阻，作者恳求以一曲《绿袖子》证明归属。琴声打动了警卫，他们破例归还。这场双重善意——陌生人拾金不昧，警卫网开一面——让作者明白：再冷漠的都市，也藏着人性的微光。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“当我去拿的时候，警卫问我要身份证”可知，第一段可描写作者一时拿不出身份证，恳求警卫把长笛给自己，但警卫拒绝了，作者非常伤心。 ②由第二段首句内容“我又绝望又焦虑地说：‘我给你吹首曲子怎么样？’”可知，第二段可描写警卫同意作者吹长笛，作者投入地演奏，警卫被感动，把长笛交给作者，作者充满感激。 2. 续写线索：警卫要求作者出示身份证——作者恳求警卫——警卫拒绝——作者提议吹奏一曲——作者投入演奏——作者拿回长笛，充满感激 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①解释：explain/clarify/explicate ②盯着看：stare at/gaze at ③克制：hold back/withhold 情绪类 ①绝望：despair/desperation/depression ②感激：gratitude/thanks/gratefulness 【点睛】[高分句型1] I froze in my tracks, a wave of panic washing over me.

The first project is the Pops Advisor which provides an automatic evaluation of students’ video presentations with visual feedback. 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 Vocal Quality Vocal Filler Eye Contact Body Language Credibility Attention Central Idea Preview Connective Support Language Connective Credibility Organization Signaling Ending Summary Memorable Ending 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 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. 1. What is the Pops Advisor? A. A voice assistant. B. A video player. C. A time tracker. D. An evaluation tool. 2. Which of the following categories provides feedback on facial expressions? A. Delivery. B. Introduction. C. Body. D.

B Sarah Thompson faced constant challenges due to her hearing impairment (听力障碍). From a young age, she was often told what she couldn’t do, but Sarah was determined to show the world what she could achieve. After being rejected from multiple jobs because of her disability, she decided to found Ocean Breeze Crafts, a sustainable handmade goods business, to demonstrate that her disability would never define her limits. Ocean Breeze Crafts began as a small workshop in Sarah’s apartment, but it quickly grew into a flourishing (繁荣的) business. Today, her eco-friendly products, including handmade jewelry and home decorations, are sold in shops across the country. However, Sarah’s mission goes far beyond creating beautiful items. She offered employment opportunities to individuals with disabilities. Sarah believes that everyone deserves a chance to contribute, regardless of their challenges. Each employee at Ocean Breeze Crafts is trained in various aspects of the business, from designing products to managing orders, helping them gain valuable skills and confidence. One of the company’s most innovative initiatives is its “Sign & Design” program, where product packaging includes simple sign language instructions to enhance understanding of the deaf community. This program reflects Sarah’s passion for bridging the gap between the hearing and hearing-impaired worlds. She hopes these small steps will encourage broader conversations about inclusivity. Ocean Breeze Crafts also reinvests its profits in the community. A part of the earnings funds sign language workshops for local schools, job training programs for disabled individuals, and sustainability projects. Sarah’s vision is not just about running a successful business — it’s about creating lasting change. She dreams of a world where people with disabilities are valued for their abilities, not judged by their limitations.

Unlike the moon, Earth’s primary companion which has accompanied our planet for around 4.5 billion years, this “new mini-moon” will stick around for just two months before it heads back to its home in an asteroid belt following our planet and orbiting the sun. A team of scientists spotted 2024 PT5 as they routinely monitored newly discovered objects around Earth. “The asteroid paying us a visit belongs to the Arjuna asteroid belt, a secondary asteroid belt made of space rocks that follow the orbit very similar to that of Earth at an average distance to the sun of about 150 million kilometers,” said research lead author Carlos de la Fuente Marcos. Marcos explained that some of these asteroids in the Arjuna asteroid belt can approach Earth at a close range of around 4.5 million kilometers and at low speeds of around 3,540 kilometers per hour. “Under these conditions, one of these asteroids may be captured by Earth’s gravity and become a temporary moon of Earth. The asteroid 2024 PT5 will undergo this process for about two months,” Marcos added. “It will not follow a full orbit around Earth.” Mini-moon events come in two flavors. The first is about long episodes during which the asteroid completes one or more revolutions about our planet, with these gravitational engagements (引力作用) lasting one or more years. The second type of episodes is short engagements in which the small body does not complete one full revolution. These temporary captures can last just days, weeks or even a few months. Short mini-moon events are relatively frequent, with several events happening per decade. Long mini-moon events, on the other hand, are rare with Earth experiencing one around every ten or twenty years. Unfortunately, during its occupation around Earth, 2024 PT5 won’t be visible to the vast majority of sky watchers. “The asteroid is too small and dark for typical amateur telescopes. However, it is well within the brightness range of typical telescopes by professional astronomers,” Marcos said. 8. How long will the asteroid 2024 PT5 stay near Earth? A. Over a decade. B. About two months. C. Less than a week. D. Around 4.5 billion years. 9. What makes 2024 PT5 a “mini moon” rather than a true moon? A. It lacks a stable orbit around Earth. B. It is smaller than other asteroids. C. It moves faster than Earth’s moon. D. It reflects too little light to be seen. 10. What writing technique is used to explain mini-moon events? A. Definition. B. Classification. C. Comparison. D. Illustration. 11. What can we infer from Marcos’ words from the last paragraph? A. The asteroid 2024 PT5 is unusually bright. B. Sky watchers should purchase advanced telescopes. C. Professional knowledge is needed for asteroid observation. D. Amateur telescopes are not powerful to observe 2024 PT5. D One of the top sources of added sugar in children’s diets in America is in their breakfast cereal (麦片). A study published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine shows that advertising drives sales of high-sugar cereals when it’s aimed directly at kids under 12-but not when it targets adults. In the study, researchers looked at all cereals purchased by 77,000 U.S. households over a nine-year period, between 2008 and 2017. They also looked at Nielsen ratings data, which closely monitored all the ads that people in a household saw-both children and adults. What they found was a strong relationship between how much advertising was targeted to kids and how much sugary cereal that households with children bought. By contrast, there was no link to increased purchases when ads targeted adults. And these extensive data also showed that behaviors that were learned in childhood could track into adulthood, which could lead to poor health outcomes over a lifetime. The study is the first to directly compare the influence of food advertising exposure by children with that of adults. The findings offer novel evidence of how food marketing turns children into the “ultimate weapon” in influencing family spending because they consistently ask their parents to purchase a concept known as “pester power”. The food industry launched the Children’s Food and Beverage Advertising Initiative, a voluntary effort to police itself. The 21 participating food companies made a commitment to cut back on marketing unhealthy foods to children under 12 — later revised to under 13. A new study conducted in 2024 showed that children’s exposure to cereal ads on TV programming aimed at kids has dropped dramatically. But Lindsey Smith Taillie, a food policy researcher at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, says these voluntary efforts aren’t making a difference. Advertisements, like kids’ eyeballs, are moving online, making it even harder to know what marketing children are being exposed to, Taillie notes. 12. What did the study find about child-targeted food ads? A. They had no connection with adults’ purchases. B. They were less effective than adult-targeted ads. C. They might affect children’s health in the long run. D. They could reduce children’s interest in sugary food. 13. What does the underlined phrase “pester power” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Parents’ unconditional love. B. Children’s uncontrolled spending. C. Parents’ growing consumption. D. Children’s repeated purchase requests. 14. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. An expectation for further study. B. The follow-up influence of the study. C. A limitation of the research method. D. The potential application of the findings. 15. What is Tallie’s attitude toward the voluntary efforts? A. Favorable. B. Tolerant. C. Disapproving. D. Reserved. 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白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 One of the most common mistakes in communication is trying to do too much. ____16____ There’s no value in delivering any kind of communication, whether written, spoken, formal, or informal, if the message doesn’t come across clearly. Being clear and brief — while maintaining interest and including everything your listeners need to know — is a high-level communication skill. Here are some tips worth following in order to communicate more effectively. Keep your audience in mind. Your audience will naturally be more interested and engaged when you tailor your communications to their interests. ____17____ This will engage their desire to understand and interact with the information. Don’t use ten words when one will do. Even the most engaged and committed audience will eventually get bored. Keeping your message simple and clear will make it easier for people to understand. ____18____ However, they’re hearing it for the first time. Keep it simple. ____19____ If you’ve ever worked as an instructor, manager, trainer or coach, you’ll know that there are few better ways to learn new information than to teach it. Ask the audience to contribute their ideas or to take a role in explaining new concepts and policies to others. Allow them to lead discussions and meetings to develop their communication skills. Consider the best method to deliver your message. If the information you’re communicating isn’t urgent, consider sending an email. Written communication will give your audience more time to review it, think it over, and follow up with questions. ____20____ Building effective communication skills takes time but the effects are worth the effort. A. Be patient. B. Get the audience involved. C. The best messages are often simple. D. Speak directly to what matters to them. E. You may be surprised by what your listeners offer. F. It will also give them a handy record to refer back to. G. As the speaker, you already know what you’re going to say. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题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。 When I started my own technology writing business, it began well — I landed my first contract, though I wondered if it was too good to be true.

However, my own experiences tell a different story. During some of the most challenging times of my life, when I was struggling to find proper housing, I worked as an artist on the street. For years, I played my flute (长笛) there, and in doing so, I discovered the natural kindness of people. They showed compassion without expecting anything in return, driven purely by human goodwill. This profound realization took hold when I was 21, living in Sydney. I worked at a local pub, feeling lost and directionless. Amid the chaos of my life, playing the flute was my only constant source of comfort. Looking back, my connection with the flute began when I was 16. Earning a mere $2.35 an hour at the supermarket, I saved for two long years to buy it. Every day after work, playing the flute became my way of processing the day’s emotions. One day, while working at the pub, someone asked me what I was doing that night. “I’m going to be playing the flute at —” I started to say, but then it struck me: I had forgotten to pick up my flute when I got off the train. Panic set in immediately. In a fit of frustration, I threw the plastic chair I was holding across the room. I rushed to the train station, hoping someone had handed in my flute. No luck. Still, I left my number, clinging to the slim hope that it would turn up. Convinced that it was gone forever — after all, I hadn’t even written my name on the case — I spent the next week drowning in self-blame, drinking heavily and feeling sorry for myself. Then, out of the blue, I received a call from CityRail. They had my flute. I hurried to the lost property office at Central Station. And there it was, among all the other lost items. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 As I went to grab it, the guards there asked for my ID. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Desperate and anxious, I said, “What if I play you a tune?” _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
