Let’s see some of the lucky and unlucky numbers across the world. ②◆The number 3 People in Sweden think all good things come in threes. For example, there are three kinds of medals in a game. People in South Korea and Italy think the same way. But people in Japan and Vietnam have a different idea. They don’t like taking photos when there are only three people. They think death will come for the person in the middle. ③◆The number 8 It is a lucky number in most countries. This number is very welcome among Chinese people because it has the similar pronunciation to “Fa”. The Beijing Summer Olympics started at 8:00 pm on August 8th, 2008. Eight is also a lucky number in Japan. But it’s different in Bulgaria. People there think it can bring them bad luck. ④◆The number 9 In China, it’s a lucky number. It has the same pronunciation as “Jiu”, meaning everlasting (永恒的). In Norway, it’s a lucky number, too. There are many stories about it. But people in Japan don’t like it. Why? Because when they say it in Japanese, it’s just like another word “Ku”. ⑤◆The number 13 How about the number 13? It’s an unlucky number in many countries, like Norway, Sweden and the UK. Lots of bad things happened on the 13th in history. However, in Italy, 13 is a lucky number. People think 13 can help them live a happy life. 41．Which countries think of the number three as a lucky number? A．Japan and Vietnam. B．South Korea and Japan. C．Vietnam and Sweden. D．South Korea and Sweden. 42．How does the writer start the text about the number 13? A．By giving an example. B．By telling a story. C．By providing a background D．By asking a question. 43．Which of the following is right according to the text? ①Jane in Italy loves taking photos of three people. ②Peter in Bulgaria is very happy to have eight balls. ③Bella in Norway is glad to collect nine model planes. ④John in Sweden would like to have a party on June 13. A．③④ B．②④ C．①③ D．①④ 44．How is the text organized? (①= Paragraph 1, ②= Paragraph 2, …) A． B． C． D． B Facial recognition technology (人脸识别技术) is widely used today. For example, police use it to search (搜寻) for bad guys. Most people use it to unlock phones or doors. It can also be used for payment. Now, a similar technology, known as facial detection (探测), is entering a new field: the business of advertising. Such systems are going through tests in a small number of stores. There are two kinds of facial detection systems. One facial detection system can judge a person’s “happiness” or “fear” level. That helps businesses see how people feel as they look at products (产品) of advertisements in the store. Another system can detect whether someone is wearing eyeglasses or not. If so, stores can send advertisements for new glasses to him. Facial detection technology is also placed inside some large advertising boards. Cameras in those boards can detect information like people’s ages and five levels of feelings—from “very happy” to “very unhappy”. Supporters of the technology say it could improve buyers’ experience by showing products they might like or by offering them products at lower prices. Some are against the idea of using such systems. Pam Dixon, the head of a privacy (隐私) group, is one of them. She thinks the strange actions may cause something unfair. For example, a business could raise the price of a product according to a person’s age and feelings. However, one store testing the technology explained they wouldn’t store people’s information like names or ages. And the advertising board system maker said it didn’t keep any personal information or record any videos. 45．Which technology can help the police to search for bad guys? A．Facial detection technology. B．Facial recognition technology. C．Medical technology. D．Camera technology. 46．Pam Dixon is against the idea of using facial detection technology because ________. A．she thinks facial detection technology can not improve buyers’ experience B．she thinks using facial detection technology may cause something unfair C．she thinks facial detection technology can make people unhappy D．she thinks facial detection technology can make people spend less money 47．Which of the following statements is true about the facial detection technology? A．It can detect buyers’ names and record them. B．It is mainly used to store people’s information. C．It is mainly used to record videos. D．It may need some time before being widely used. 48．What is the best title of the passage? A．Facial Recognition Technology Entering a New Field B．Facial Recognition Technology Looking for Bad Guys C．Facial Detection Technology Going into the Advertising Field D．Facial Detection Technology Improving Buyers’ Experience C What will the schools in the future look like? Smart campuses (校园) are being built all over the world. Their high-tech features (特性) help students learn more effectively (有效地) and safely, as well as bring convenience (便利) to teachers. The University of British Columbia has built Canada’s first 5G-powered smart campus, according to The Star, a Canadian newspaper. The school worked with a tech company to build a 5G network across its campus. Its researchers can use the network to test 5G software (软件). At Staffordshire University in the UK, many students enjoy talking to Beacon and asking it questions. Beacon is an AI chatbot (聊天机器人) that was made by the university. It is like a personal helper for students. They can ask it questions, such as whether or not one of their classes is cancelled. Amazon also has smart campus products. Alexa, the company’s voice-activated (声控的) smart assistant, can be used to help teachers run their classes. For example, Alexa can remember the teacher’s classroom preferences (偏好), such as how bright the lights should be, and then change them. “Cities are so big, and there are so many players and stakeholders (利益相关者). It can be difficult. But universities have control over their estate (财产). They own all the buildings ... so they can become like a living lab,” said Gemma Ginty, a designer who is working on a smart campus development strategy (策略) for the University of Glasgow. 49．Which of the following can’t smart campuses bring to students and teachers? A．Effectiveness. B．Safety. C．Convenience. D．Independence. 50．What can Beacon do? A．It can test 5G software. B．It can teach students lessons. C．It can answer students’ questions. D．It can help teachers cancel classes. 51．Who created Alexa? A．The University of British Columbia. B．The Staffordshire University. C．Amazon. D．The University of Glasgow. 52．Why do people prefer to test smart technology in universities according to Gemma Ginty? A．Because they have real labs. B．Because they are like real cities. C．Because they have many stakeholders. D．Because universities own all of their buildings. 53．What is the structure of the passage? (P= Paragraph) A． B． C． D． D The media landscape has undergone a dramatic transformation over the past few decades. Traditional media, such as newspapers, radio, and television, once dominated how people consumed information and entertainment. However, with the rise of the internet and digital technology, these platforms now face unprecedented challenges. According to recent statistics, the global digital media market is expected to reach $350 billion by 2025, while print media continues to decline, with newspaper circulation dropping by nearly 50% since the early 2000s. Digital media has revolutionized how content is created, distributed, and consumed. Social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram have become primary sources of news for many users, especially younger generations. These platforms enable instant sharing of information, allowing news to spread virally within minutes. However, this speed has also led to challenges, such as the spread of misinformation and “fake news”, which traditional media outlets with established fact checking processes are less prone to. Another significant shift is the rise of streaming services like Netflix, Hulu, and Disney+, which have transformed how people watch television and movies. Unlike traditional broadcast networks, these services offer on-demand content, allowing viewers to watch what they want, when they want. This shift has led to a decline in traditional TV viewership, with younger audiences increasingly turning to streaming platforms for their entertainment needs. The advertising industry has also evolved dramatically. Digital advertising now accounts for over 50% of all advertising spending globally, surpassing traditional methods like TV commercials and print ads. Advertisers are increasingly leveraging data analytics to target specific demographics, making digital ads more effective and personalized. Despite these changes, traditional media is not disappearing entirely. Instead, many organizations are adapting by integrating digital strategies. For example, newspapers like The New York Times have shifted their focus to digital subscriptions, while TV networks are launching their own streaming services. This hybrid approach suggests that the future of media may not be a replacement of old by new, but rather a coexistence where each platform leverages its unique strengths. 54．What is the primary reason for the decline of traditional media like newspapers and television? A．Increased production costs B．The rise of digital media and the internet C．Decreased interest in news and entertainment D．Government regulations on media companies 55．Which of the following is a challenge associated with social media as a news source? A．Faster distribution of news B．Spread of misinformation and fake news C．Increased engagement with content D．Higher quality of journalistic standards 56．What has contributed to the growth of streaming services? A．The decline of movie theaters B．The availability of on-demand content C．The increase in traditional TV viewership D．The decrease in internet speeds 57．How has the advertising industry adapted to media changes? A．By focusing solely on print advertisements B．By reducing overall advertising budgets C．By using data analytics for targeted ads D．By eliminating digital advertising 58．What strategy are traditional media companies using to remain relevant? A．Completely abandoning digital platforms B．Integrating digital strategies with their existing models C．Relying exclusively on government support D．Ignoring changes in consumer behavior E Some people often read e-books on personal computers or e-book readers. 59 . At first, e-books were just for a certain group of readers and most of them were about only a few subjects. With the development of the Internet, 60 .

They need a personal computer, a mobile phone or an e-book reader, and the information can be lost if the reader’s computer doesn’t support its file format (文件格式). However, e-books give us a new way of reading. That is really good. A．Second, e-books save money B．we can read paper books anywhere C．And some people like to read e-books on their mobile phones D．But e-books have certain disadvantages E．knowledge and answers to a lot of questions mainly come from e-books F．we need so many paper books G．We don’t need to go to a bookstore to buy books 五、短文填空 阅读短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 We’ve all had bad experiences with restaurants, stores, or hotels. Maybe you went to 64 restaurant that served terrible food. Perhaps you went to a store that had bad service. Or you booked (预定) a hotel and 65 (find) out later that the room was nothing like the ad. These days, we have a better chance of stopping these unpleasant surprises. We can do this by 66 (use) Apps. An App is a computer program on a smart phone. You can use Apps 67 (do) almost anything.

Let’s see some of the lucky and unlucky numbers across the world. ②◆The number 3 People in Sweden think all good things come in threes. For example, there are three kinds of medals in a game. People in South Korea and Italy think the same way. But people in Japan and Vietnam have a different idea. They don’t like taking photos when there are only three people. They think death will come for the person in the middle. ③◆The number 8 It is a lucky number in most countries. This number is very welcome among Chinese people because it has the similar pronunciation to “Fa”. The Beijing Summer Olympics started at 8:00 pm on August 8th, 2008. Eight is also a lucky number in Japan. But it’s different in Bulgaria. People there think it can bring them bad luck. ④◆The number 9 In China, it’s a lucky number. It has the same pronunciation as “Jiu”, meaning everlasting (永恒的). In Norway, it’s a lucky number, too. There are many stories about it. But people in Japan don’t like it. Why? Because when they say it in Japanese, it’s just like another word “Ku”. ⑤◆The number 13 How about the number 13? It’s an unlucky number in many countries, like Norway, Sweden and the UK. Lots of bad things happened on the 13th in history. However, in Italy, 13 is a lucky number. People think 13 can help them live a happy life. 41．Which countries think of the number three as a lucky number? A．Japan and Vietnam. B．South Korea and Japan. C．Vietnam and Sweden. D．South Korea and Sweden. 42．How does the writer start the text about the number 13? A．By giving an example. B．By telling a story. C．By providing a background D．By asking a question. 43．Which of the following is right according to the text? ①Jane in Italy loves taking photos of three people. ②Peter in Bulgaria is very happy to have eight balls. ③Bella in Norway is glad to collect nine model planes. ④John in Sweden would like to have a party on June 13. A．③④ B．②④ C．①③ D．①④ 44．How is the text organized? (①= Paragraph 1, ②= Paragraph 2, …) A． B． C． D． B Facial recognition technology (人脸识别技术) is widely used today. For example, police use it to search (搜寻) for bad guys. Most people use it to unlock phones or doors. It can also be used for payment. Now, a similar technology, known as facial detection (探测), is entering a new field: the business of advertising. Such systems are going through tests in a small number of stores. There are two kinds of facial detection systems. One facial detection system can judge a person’s “happiness” or “fear” level. That helps businesses see how people feel as they look at products (产品) of advertisements in the store. Another system can detect whether someone is wearing eyeglasses or not. If so, stores can send advertisements for new glasses to him. Facial detection technology is also placed inside some large advertising boards. Cameras in those boards can detect information like people’s ages and five levels of feelings—from “very happy” to “very unhappy”. Supporters of the technology say it could improve buyers’ experience by showing products they might like or by offering them products at lower prices. Some are against the idea of using such systems. Pam Dixon, the head of a privacy (隐私) group, is one of them. She thinks the strange actions may cause something unfair. For example, a business could raise the price of a product according to a person’s age and feelings. However, one store testing the technology explained they wouldn’t store people’s information like names or ages. And the advertising board system maker said it didn’t keep any personal information or record any videos. 45．Which technology can help the police to search for bad guys? A．Facial detection technology. B．Facial recognition technology. C．Medical technology. D．Camera technology. 46．Pam Dixon is against the idea of using facial detection technology because ________. A．she thinks facial detection technology can not improve buyers’ experience B．she thinks using facial detection technology may cause something unfair C．she thinks facial detection technology can make people unhappy D．she thinks facial detection technology can make people spend less money 47．Which of the following statements is true about the facial detection technology? A．It can detect buyers’ names and record them. B．It is mainly used to store people’s information. C．It is mainly used to record videos. D．It may need some time before being widely used. 48．What is the best title of the passage?

(P= Paragraph) A． B． C． D． D The media landscape has undergone a dramatic transformation over the past few decades. Traditional media, such as newspapers, radio, and television, once dominated how people consumed information and entertainment. However, with the rise of the internet and digital technology, these platforms now face unprecedented challenges. According to recent statistics, the global digital media market is expected to reach $350 billion by 2025, while print media continues to decline, with newspaper circulation dropping by nearly 50% since the early 2000s. Digital media has revolutionized how content is created, distributed, and consumed. Social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram have become primary sources of news for many users, especially younger generations. These platforms enable instant sharing of information, allowing news to spread virally within minutes. However, this speed has also led to challenges, such as the spread of misinformation and “fake news”, which traditional media outlets with established fact checking processes are less prone to. Another significant shift is the rise of streaming services like Netflix, Hulu, and Disney+, which have transformed how people watch television and movies. Unlike traditional broadcast networks, these services offer on-demand content, allowing viewers to watch what they want, when they want. This shift has led to a decline in traditional TV viewership, with younger audiences increasingly turning to streaming platforms for their entertainment needs. The advertising industry has also evolved dramatically. Digital advertising now accounts for over 50% of all advertising spending globally, surpassing traditional methods like TV commercials and print ads. Advertisers are increasingly leveraging data analytics to target specific demographics, making digital ads more effective and personalized. Despite these changes, traditional media is not disappearing entirely. Instead, many organizations are adapting by integrating digital strategies. For example, newspapers like The New York Times have shifted their focus to digital subscriptions, while TV networks are launching their own streaming services. This hybrid approach suggests that the future of media may not be a replacement of old by new, but rather a coexistence where each platform leverages its unique strengths. 54．What is the primary reason for the decline of traditional media like newspapers and television?
