As the founder of Farmer Lifeline Technologies (FLT), she has applied artificial intelligence (AI) to fight against crop pests (害虫) and diseases, significantly reducing losses for rural farmers. Kimani’s journey began in a small Kenyan village on the Aberdare Mountains. Witnessing firsthand the severe impact of pests and diseases on their crops — and consequently, their income — she understood early how agricultural losses could mean unmet basic needs like school fees and healthcare. Despite these challenges, Kimani became the first girl from her village to attend university, studying computer science. It was there that she recognized the potential of technology to solve rural farmers’ struggles, and that’s how FLT was born. In Kenya alone, 7.5 million smallholder farmers lose up to 50% of their yield (产量) to pests and diseases annually — losses that could feed millions. Traditional solutions like hiring agricultural consultants or using drones (无人机) are extremely expensive. To solve this critical issue, she developed an AI-powered camera, which is set up on farms at no advance cost. It scans crops continuously and warns farmers through Short Message Service (SMS) for $3 per month the moment pests or diseases are detected. A key focus for Kimani is supporting women farmers, who make up 43% of the agricultural labor force in developing nations, but who often lack access to technology. “Men in rural communities tend to have smartphones, while women rely on basic feature phones,” she notes. “Through SMS, we ensure women aren’t left behind.” Kimani’s innovation has already impacted thousands of farmers, 78% of whom have reported a yield increase of over 36%. Her team aims to reach 200 thousand farms across the country within five years. For Kimani, success in 2030 means seeing 200 thousand smallholder farmers living with dignity — affording education, healthcare, and financial stability through improved yields. Kimani is not just building a company; she’s reshaping the future of African agriculture. 4. Why did Kimani found FLT? A. To research crop types. B. To expand AI industry. C. To finance rural farmers. D. To address farming issues. 5. How does the AI-powered camera help farmers? A. By sending them timely warnings. B. By connecting them to consultants. C. By controlling drones to scan crops. D. By driving pests away automatically. 6. What is an advantage of Kimani’s innovation? A. Zero cost. B. Tailored service. C. Easy maintenance. D. Equal access. 7. What does the author imply in the last paragraph? A. Kimani will pursue further education. B. Kimani’s breakthrough powers the future. C. African agriculture will take the lead. D. Financial policies greatly affect agriculture. C What do you do as spring sets in? Taking off your warm winter coat, and putting it away? For humans, taking off winter coats is a one-minute task. As it turns out, not all animals are so capable. Snowshoe rabbits live in the mountain ranges of North America, and have a pure white coat during the wintertime to match the snowy surroundings and to help avoid being caught. And they take off winter coats for a darker brown fur colour to match the dirt and leaves after the snow melts in the spring. Sounds like a great way to escape from their natural enemies, right? However, concern begins when scientists begin looking at how the warming climate will impact the rabbits. There are more and more white rabbits in the middle of a brown habitat, where the snow has already melted away. This is a problem for them, as they are more easily seen by their natural enemies, giving them a “mismatch” problem. Snowshoe rabbits time the coat change in spring from white to brown based on the change in day length, not the temperature or the presence of snow in their habitat. Nowadays, the snow is melting a week on average before the change in day length signals the change in coat colour, leaving the rabbits exposed to their natural enemies. Some predictions put the rabbits in up to 8 weeks of a white coat in a brown, snowless habitat by the end of this century. This timeline could spell doom for their populations, as their natural enemies will have nearly two months of easily spotting them. Fortunately, scientists have found areas with snowshoe rabbits in colour from white to brown in the same place, meaning the timing of the coat change can be influenced by the environment. Snowshoe rabbits reproduce quickly, and if the colour change timing is passed down then it is possible for rabbits to change coats accordingly. By protecting areas with variable ones, we can give snowshoe rabbits the opportunity to adapt to the changing climate. 8. Why does the author mention humans’ taking off winter coats? A. To imply the cleverness of humans. B. To stress the influence of climate change. C. To lead to the problem of snowshoe rabbits. D. To show the bond between humans and animals. 9. What has made scientists worry about snowshoe rabbits? A. They are active in freezing winter. B. They fail to keep their white colour. C. They can’t get rid of white fur when snow melts. D. They are easily caught by hunters on snowy days. 10. What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4? A. More rabbits will be killed. B. Rabbits’ enemies are stronger. C. The rabbit population will explode. D. The rabbits may die out in the near future. 11. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. Snowshoe Rabbits: Masters of Coat Change. B. Snowshoe Rabbits: Survivors of Illegal Hunting. C. Snowshoe Rabbits: Victims of Climate Mismatch. D. Snowshoe Rabbits: Witnesses of Natural Selection. D If you’re digitally skilled, it has likely been a while since you spent much time writing by hand. The laborious process of outlining our thoughts, letter by letter, on the page is becoming a thing of the past in our screen-dominated world, where text messages-and-thumb-typed grocery lists have replaced handwritten letters and sticky notes. To keep up, many schools are introducing computers as early as preschool, meaning some kids may learn the basics of typing before writing by hand. Although electronic keyboards offer obvious efficiency benefits, giving up handwriting may come at a significant cost. Typing pays no attention to the form of the letters — only involving relatively simple and uniform movements. By contrast, handwriting is a complex task. Motor system has to finely adjust the pressure that each finger applies on the pen to recreate each letter. Adding to the complexity, your visual system must continuously process that letter as it’s formed, with your brain making adjustments to fingers in real time to create the letters’ shapes “This process lets you make your body and what you are seeing mesh (匹配),” says Robert Wiley, a cognitive (认知的) psychologist at the Unıversity of North Carolina, adding “such complexity is vital to mental development.” Screens and keyboards replacing pen and paper might affect kids’ ability to learn letters, which is actually an important predictor of later reading and math achievement. If young children are not receiving any handwriting training, their brains simply won’t reach their full potential. For adults, typing often results in failing to actually process information. During a lecture, it’s possible to type what they’re hearing word for word. But often, they’re just typing blindly, failing to make information their own. On the other hand, taking notes by hand forces them to write only key words and use drawings or arrows to work through Ideas. Actually, we don’t have to drop digital tools, like graphics tablets and smart pens, to take advantage of the power of handwriting. Recent research suggests that writing on a screen activates the same brain pathways as writing on paper. It’s the movement that counts, not its final form. 12. What does the author mainly convey in paragraph 1? A. Abandoning handwriting is unwise. B. Handwritten communication is out of date. C. Digital literacy is ignored nowadays. D. Computer courses are unusual in preschools. 13. Why is handwriting considered a complex task? A. It demands high creativity in designing each letter. B. It involves precise finger pressure and visual adjustment. C. It relies entirely on visual processing to shape the letters. D. It requires consistent pressure from the fingers to form letters. 14. What can be inferred from paragraph 3? A. Blind typing contributes to brain development. B. Kids have a preference for screens and keyboards. C. Handwritten markers are good for getting ideas linked. D. Adults have the ability to memorize complex information. 15. What is the author’s attitude towards using digital pens? A. Cautious. B. Unconcerned. C. Critical. D. Favourable. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，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。 How to Quiet a Complainer(抱怨者) Have you ever suffered your mother’s complaints about her aches and pains? Lengthy complaints will ruin the quality of your time together. ____16____ Actually there are some ways to get a complainer to stop without starting an argument. Change the subject. Some complainers will switch topics if you shift the conversation in a direction that interests them. If your neighbor is complaining about the phone company, tell her about an unexpected call you received from an old friend. If your coworker is complaining about your boss, ask whether he met the new employee. ____17____ Summarize the complaint. If your complainer keeps repeating himself, he may stop if you show that you’re listening. ____18____ Using “I” statements rather than “you” statements show that you’re interested rather than trying to shut the person down. Avoid saying the word complaining. Saying you hear their dissatisfaction gets the points across. Try to be honest. When you have things to do, tell the complainer that you must cut the conversation short. ____19____ You can simply be honest, even saying you need to move on so the conversation doesn’t bring you down – especially if it’s someone who’s complained to you many times before. ____20____ When it’s someone very close to you–your partner, sibling, or best friend–who stresses you out with a lot of negativity, it’s important to talk about the problem with an open heart. Otherwise, if you bottle up your feelings and continue listening to repeated complaints, you may grow angry or start avoiding the person. A. Have a heart-to-heart talk. B. Challenge the person to act. C. But you may not be brave enough to stop her. D. Just get them off the focus that they’re currently on. E. The problems start when complaining becomes a habit. F. You don’t need excuses such as a work deadline or a dentist appointment. G.

Despite these challenges, Kimani became the first girl from her village to attend university, studying computer science. It was there that she recognized the potential of technology to solve rural farmers’ struggles, and that’s how FLT was born. In Kenya alone, 7.5 million smallholder farmers lose up to 50% of their yield (产量) to pests and diseases annually — losses that could feed millions. Traditional solutions like hiring agricultural consultants or using drones (无人机) are extremely expensive. To solve this critical issue, she developed an AI-powered camera, which is set up on farms at no advance cost. It scans crops continuously and warns farmers through Short Message Service (SMS) for $3 per month the moment pests or diseases are detected. A key focus for Kimani is supporting women farmers, who make up 43% of the agricultural labor force in developing nations, but who often lack access to technology. “Men in rural communities tend to have smartphones, while women rely on basic feature phones,” she notes. “Through SMS, we ensure women aren’t left behind.” Kimani’s innovation has already impacted thousands of farmers, 78% of whom have reported a yield increase of over 36%. Her team aims to reach 200 thousand farms across the country within five years. For Kimani, success in 2030 means seeing 200 thousand smallholder farmers living with dignity — affording education, healthcare, and financial stability through improved yields. Kimani is not just building a company; she’s reshaping the future of African agriculture. 4. Why did Kimani found FLT? A. To research crop types. B. To expand AI industry. C. To finance rural farmers. D. To address farming issues. 5. How does the AI-powered camera help farmers? A. By sending them timely warnings. B. By connecting them to consultants. C. By controlling drones to scan crops. D. By driving pests away automatically. 6. What is an advantage of Kimani’s innovation? A. Zero cost. B. Tailored service. C. Easy maintenance. D. Equal access. 7. What does the author imply in the last paragraph? A. Kimani will pursue further education. B. Kimani’s breakthrough powers the future. C. African agriculture will take the lead. D. Financial policies greatly affect agriculture. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. D 7. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了29岁的农业技术先驱Esther Kimani通过创立Farmer Lifeline Technologies (FLT)，利用人工智能技术帮助非洲小农户对抗作物病虫害，显著减少损失并改善农民生活的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“As the founder of Farmer Lifeline Technologies (FLT), she has applied artificial intelligence (AI) to fight against crop pests (害虫) and diseases, significantly reducing losses for rural farmers. (作为Farmer Lifeline Technologies（FLT）的创始人，她将人工智能（AI）应用于防治作物病虫害，大大减少了农民的损失。)”可知，Kimani成立FLT是为了防治作物病虫害，即解决农业问题，故选D。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“To solve this critical issue, she developed an AI-powered camera, which is set up on farms at no advance cost. It scans crops continuously and warns farmers through Short Message Service (SMS) for $3 per month the moment pests or diseases are detected. (为了解决这一关键问题，她开发了一种人工智能摄像头，可以在农场上安装，无需预付费用。它会持续扫描农作物，一旦发现病虫害，就通过短信服务（SMS）每月向农民发出3美元的警告。)”可知，AI摄像头通过向农民发送及时警告来帮助他们，故选A。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“A key focus for Kimani is supporting women farmers, who make up 43% of the agricultural labor force in developing nations, but who often lack access to technology. ‘Men in rural communities tend to have smartphones, while women rely on basic feature phones,’ she notes. ‘Through SMS, we ensure women aren’t left behind.’ (Kimani的一个关键重点是支持女性农民，她们占发展中国家农业劳动力的43%，但往往缺乏技术。她指出：‘农村社区的男性往往拥有智能手机，而女性则依赖基本的非智能手机。’‘通过短信，我们确保女性不会被遗忘。’）”可知，Kimani的创新确保了女性农民也能被纳入技术帮助的范围内，即体现了平等获取技术帮助的优势。故选D。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Her team aims to reach 200 thousand farms across the country within five years. For Kimani, success in 2030 means seeing 200 thousand smallholder farmers living with dignity — affording education, healthcare, and financial stability through improved yields. Kimani is not just building a company; she’s reshaping the future of African agriculture. (她的团队计划在五年内覆盖全国20万个农场。对Kimani来说，2030年的成功意味着20万小农通过提高产量，过上有尊严的教育、医疗和金融稳定的生活。基马尼不仅仅是在创建一家公司；她正在重塑非洲农业的未来。)”可知，Kimani的团队有着明确的目标和愿景，即改善更多农民的生活。由此可推知，Kimani的创新将推动农业走向光明前景。故选B。 C What do you do as spring sets in? Taking off your warm winter coat, and putting it away? For humans, taking off winter coats is a one-minute task. As it turns out, not all animals are so capable. Snowshoe rabbits live in the mountain ranges of North America, and have a pure white coat during the wintertime to match the snowy surroundings and to help avoid being caught. And they take off winter coats for a darker brown fur colour to match the dirt and leaves after the snow melts in the spring. Sounds like a great way to escape from their natural enemies, right? However, concern begins when scientists begin looking at how the warming climate will impact the rabbits. There are more and more white rabbits in the middle of a brown habitat, where the snow has already melted away. This is a problem for them, as they are more easily seen by their natural enemies, giving them a “mismatch” problem. Snowshoe rabbits time the coat change in spring from white to brown based on the change in day length, not the temperature or the presence of snow in their habitat. Nowadays, the snow is melting a week on average before the change in day length signals the change in coat colour, leaving the rabbits exposed to their natural enemies. Some predictions put the rabbits in up to 8 weeks of a white coat in a brown, snowless habitat by the end of this century. This timeline could spell doom for their populations, as their natural enemies will have nearly two months of easily spotting them. Fortunately, scientists have found areas with snowshoe rabbits in colour from white to brown in the same place, meaning the timing of the coat change can be influenced by the environment. Snowshoe rabbits reproduce quickly, and if the colour change timing is passed down then it is possible for rabbits to change coats accordingly. By protecting areas with variable ones, we can give snowshoe rabbits the opportunity to adapt to the changing climate. 8. Why does the author mention humans’ taking off winter coats? A. To imply the cleverness of humans. B. To stress the influence of climate change. C. To lead to the problem of snowshoe rabbits. D. To show the bond between humans and animals. 9. What has made scientists worry about snowshoe rabbits? A. They are active in freezing winter. B. They fail to keep their white colour. C. They can’t get rid of white fur when snow melts. D. They are easily caught by hunters on snowy days. 10. What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4? A. More rabbits will be killed. B. Rabbits’ enemies are stronger. C. The rabbit population will explode. D. The rabbits may die out in the near future. 11. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. Snowshoe Rabbits: Masters of Coat Change. B. Snowshoe Rabbits: Survivors of Illegal Hunting. C. Snowshoe Rabbits: Victims of Climate Mismatch. D. Snowshoe Rabbits: Witnesses of Natural Selection. 【答案】8. C 9. C 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文通过对比人类换衣与雪靴兔换毛的差异，说明气候变化导致雪靴兔因毛色与环境不匹配而面临生存危机，并探讨其可能的适应机制。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“For humans, taking off winter coats is a one-minute task. As it turns out, not all animals are so capable.(对人类来说，脱下冬衣是一分钟的事。事实证明，并非所有动物都有这种能力。)”和第二段“And they take off winter coats for a darker brown fur colour to match the dirt and leaves after the snow melts in the spring.(春天雪融化后，它们脱下冬衣，换上深棕色的皮毛，与泥土和树叶相匹配。)”可知，作者提到了人类脱掉冬衣是为了引出雪鞋兔换毛的问题。故选C项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Snowshoe rabbits time the coat change in spring from white to brown based on the change in day length, not the temperature or the presence of snow in their habitat. Nowadays, the snow is melting a week on average before the change in day length signals the change in coat colour, leaving the rabbits exposed to their natural enemies.(在春天，雪鞋兔的皮毛会根据白天长度的变化从白色变成棕色，而不是根据它们栖息地的温度或积雪情况。如今，雪平均融化一周后，白天长度的变化就会标志着毛色的变化，这让兔子暴露在它们的天敌面前。)”可知，让科学家担心的是当雪融化时，雪鞋兔无法摆脱白色的皮毛。故选C项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段划线部分后文“as their natural enemies will have nearly two months of easily spotting them.(因为它们的天敌有近两个月的时间可以轻易发现它们。)”可知，容易被天敌发现就说明更多的兔子会被杀死。故选A项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。分析全文内容，尤其根据第二段“Snowshoe rabbits live in the mountain ranges of North America, and have a pure white coat during the wintertime to match the snowy surroundings and to help avoid being caught. And they take off winter coats for a darker brown fur colour to match the dirt and leaves after the snow melts in the spring. Sounds like a great way to escape from their natural enemies, right? However, concern begins when scientists begin looking at how the warming climate will impact the rabbits.(雪鞋兔生活在北美的山脉中，在冬天，它们有一层纯白色的皮毛，以适应下雪的环境，并帮助避免被抓住。春天雪融化后，它们脱下冬衣，换上深棕色的皮毛，与泥土和树叶相匹配。听起来像是逃离天敌的好方法，对吧？然而，当科学家开始研究气候变暖将如何影响兔子时，担忧就开始了。)”可知，本文主要说明气候变化导致雪靴兔因毛色与环境不匹配而面临生存危机，并探讨其可能的适应机制，所以C选项“雪鞋兔：气候不匹配的受害者。”适合用作文章标题。故选C项。 D If you’re digitally skilled, it has likely been a while since you spent much time writing by hand. The laborious process of outlining our thoughts, letter by letter, on the page is becoming a thing of the past in our screen-dominated world, where text messages-and-thumb-typed grocery lists have replaced handwritten letters and sticky notes. To keep up, many schools are introducing computers as early as preschool, meaning some kids may learn the basics of typing before writing by hand. Although electronic keyboards offer obvious efficiency benefits, giving up handwriting may come at a significant cost. Typing pays no attention to the form of the letters — only involving relatively simple and uniform movements. By contrast, handwriting is a complex task. Motor system has to finely adjust the pressure that each finger applies on the pen to recreate each letter. Adding to the complexity, your visual system must continuously process that letter as it’s formed, with your brain making adjustments to fingers in real time to create the letters’ shapes “This process lets you make your body and what you are seeing mesh (匹配),” says Robert Wiley, a cognitive (认知的) psychologist at the Unıversity of North Carolina, adding “such complexity is vital to mental development.” Screens and keyboards replacing pen and paper might affect kids’ ability to learn letters, which is actually an important predictor of later reading and math achievement. If young children are not receiving any handwriting training, their brains simply won’t reach their full potential. For adults, typing often results in failing to actually process information. During a lecture, it’s possible to type what they’re hearing word for word. But often, they’re just typing blindly, failing to make information their own. On the other hand, taking notes by hand forces them to write only key words and use drawings or arrows to work through Ideas. Actually, we don’t have to drop digital tools, like graphics tablets and smart pens, to take advantage of the power of handwriting. Recent research suggests that writing on a screen activates the same brain pathways as writing on paper. It’s the movement that counts, not its final form. 12. What does the author mainly convey in paragraph 1? A. Abandoning handwriting is unwise. B. Handwritten communication is out of date. C. Digital literacy is ignored nowadays. D. Computer courses are unusual in preschools. 13. Why is handwriting considered a complex task? A. It demands high creativity in designing each letter. B. It involves precise finger pressure and visual adjustment. C. It relies entirely on visual processing to shape the letters. D. It requires consistent pressure from the fingers to form letters. 14. What can be inferred from paragraph 3? A. Blind typing contributes to brain development. B. Kids have a preference for screens and keyboards. C. Handwritten markers are good for getting ideas linked. D. Adults have the ability to memorize complex information. 15. What is the author’s attitude towards using digital pens? A. Cautious. B. Unconcerned. C. Critical. D. Favourable. 【答案】12. A 13. B 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述了手写的重要性及不可替代性。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。 根据第一段中“Although electronic keyboards offer obvious efficiency benefits, giving up handwriting may come at a significant cost.(虽然电子键盘提供了明显的效率优势，但放弃手写可能会付出巨大的代价)”可知，作者认为虽然电子键盘有优势，但放弃手写代价很大，即放弃手写是不明智的。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。 根据第二段中“Motor system has to finely adjust the pressure that each finger applies on the pen to recreate each letter. Adding to the complexity, your visual system must continuously process that letter as it’s formed, with your brain making adjustments to fingers in real time to create the letters’ shapes “This process lets you make your body and what you are seeing mesh (匹配),” says Robert Wiley, a cognitive (认知的) psychologist at the Unıversity of North Carolina, adding “such complexity is vital to mental development.(运动系统必须精细地调整每个手指对笔施加的压力，以重现每个字母。更复杂的是，你的视觉系统必须在字母形成时持续对其进行处理，同时你的大脑要实时对手指动作做出调整，以塑造出字母的形态。北卡罗来纳大学的认知心理学家罗伯特·威利表示：“这一过程能让你将自身动作与所见之物相匹配。”他还补充道：“这种复杂性对大脑发育至关重要。”)”可知，手写需要精确的手指压力和视觉调整，因此复杂。故选B。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。 根据第三段中“On the other hand, taking notes by hand forces them to write only key words and use drawings or arrows to work through Ideas.(另一方面，手写笔记迫使他们只写关键词，并使用图画或箭头来梳理思路)”可推知，手写标记有助于将想法联系起来。故选C。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。 根据最后一段中“Actually, we don’t have to drop digital tools, like graphics tablets and smart pens, to take advantage of the power of handwriting. Recent research suggests that writing on a screen activates the same brain pathways as writing on paper. It’s the movement that counts, not its final form.(实际上，我们不必放弃数位板和智能笔等数字工具，就能利用手写的力量。最近的研究表明，在屏幕上写字和在纸上写字激活的大脑通路是一样的。重要的是动作，而不是最终形式)”可知，作者对使用数字笔持支持态度。故选D。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，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。 How to Quiet a Complainer(抱怨者) Have you ever suffered your mother’s complaints about her aches and pains? Lengthy complaints will ruin the quality of your time together. ____16____ Actually there are some ways to get a complainer to stop without starting an argument. Change the subject. Some complainers will switch topics if you shift the conversation in a direction that interests them. If your neighbor is complaining about the phone company, tell her about an unexpected call you received from an old friend. If your coworker is complaining about your boss, ask whether he met the new employee. ____17____ Summarize the complaint. If your complainer keeps repeating himself, he may stop if you show that you’re listening. ____18____ Using “I” statements rather than “you” statements show that you’re interested rather than trying to shut the person down. Avoid saying the word complaining. Saying you hear their dissatisfaction gets the points across. Try to be honest. When you have things to do, tell the complainer that you must cut the conversation short. ____19____ You can simply be honest, even saying you need to move on so the conversation doesn’t bring you down – especially if it’s someone who’s complained to you many times before. ____20____ When it’s someone very close to you–your partner, sibling, or best friend–who stresses you out with a lot of negativity, it’s important to talk about the problem with an open heart. Otherwise, if you bottle up your feelings and continue listening to repeated complaints, you may grow angry or start avoiding the person. A. Have a heart-to-heart talk. B Challenge the person to act. C. But you may not be brave enough to stop her. D. Just get them off the focus that they’re currently on. E. The problems start when complaining becomes a habit. F.
