M: Well, it’s an international design competition and we have to come up with a new design for a typical domestic kitchen appliance.
W: I see. And are there any special conditions this year?

W: Sure, I guess it’s not so bad. You don’t think there are bears in these woods, do you?
M: Of course there are, but don’t worry. Bears are pretty shy and won’t hurt us. They only want to eat our food.
W: But what if the bears think that I am food?
M: Don’t worry, Daphne. I know wilderness first aid and I can tell ghost stories to take your mind off the bears.
W: Ghost stories? It’s already pretty scary being out here in the dark.
M: Oh, there is nothing to be afraid of out here. You’re not scared of the dark, are you?
W: Of course, I’m not afraid of the dark. What I’m afraid of are all the things that are hiding out there in the dark. I keep hearing really strange noises out in the dark. Can you hear them?
M: Calm down, Daphne. It’s just the wind. I don’t think you’re cut out for camping.
W: I know. Next time you want to do something fun, let’s do something in the city. I’ll be happy to buy you movie tickets as long as we don’t have to go camping again.

【解析】
【原文】M: We watch our salt and fat and take to protect our heart. We apply sunscreen to protect our skin, but what can we do to protect our eyes. Let’s welcome Professor Beth today to give us some tips. Hi, professor.
W: Hi, actually it’s not just skin that needs to be protected from the sunlight. Eyes need this protection, too.
M: That’s news to me. How can we do this?
W: For example, wearing sunglasses can block out ninety-nine percent to one hundred percent of UV light.
M: You mean those cool-looking glasses with dark lenses?
W: Well, actually dark lenses aren’t necessarily UV-protected and can thus be more harmful to your eyes.
M: So we should pay attention to the UV protection ability of the sunglasses.
W: Exactly. Another surprising thing is that gardening, home repairs and sports can all pose risks to the eyes.
M: These are all common household chores and activities. What should we do?
W: Wearing sports glasses as eye protectors can be useful, so as to avoid accidents like being hit by small rocks.
M: That sounds pretty easy and effective. Now that the program is coming to an end. Are there any other tips you’d like to give us, professor?
W: Though it’s already common knowledge, it’s still worth mentioning that staring at a screen for long can leave eyes exhausted and result in further consequences. A mere twenty-second break every twenty minutes can be of great help.
M: It seems fairly practical, but I believe many will still find it hard to develop this habit, even two hours in front of a screen feels like a flash. Thank you today for your sharing, Professor Beth.

【答案】17. C 18. C 19. B 20. C
【解析】
【原文】 M: Many friends say I look refreshed and cheerful recently. I guess it’s due to volunteering. I’ve felt an incredible change after taking part in a volunteer activity. It’s such magic. I’ve met new people and learned valuable knowledge in the past three months. What’s more, while helping others, I’ve also received a lot of appreciation from others, which gives me a sense of fulfillment. Many people want to do volunteer work, but fail to take action for various reasons. Most people claim they are too busy to volunteer. I used to think so. However, when I started volunteering, such a barrier naturally disappeared. I could arrange my schedule and balance volunteer work and other issues quite well. Apart from that, people are also concerned about lacking the skills and experience to match with volunteer work. Actually, there are different kinds of volunteer work, and most of the work does not require special skills at all. What really matters is the time you give. Some people may also think it is difficult to find the groups that need help because they have no such connections with them. But the truth is that the right volunteer groups are rather easy to approach. So, if you have any interest in volunteering, just take action, and it will change your life.

Scientists in Australia thought they had developed a new tracking device to help them monitor magpies (喜鹊), but these birds had other ideas.
Australian magpies are medium-sized black and white birds from the same bird“family” as crows and bluejays. They are known to be quite clever. They live in groups of up to 12 birds and work together to defend the area they live in.
The purpose of the scientists’ experiment was to learn more about how far they travel each day and how their social behaviors are influenced by sex, age, and rank. Besides, the scientists were eager to test the newly developed tracking device.
Most trackers are too big to fit on small and medium sized birds, and small trackers tend to be limited when it comes to data storage, battery life, and reusability. The new tracker,weighing less than 1 gram, was designed to overcome these problems. Attached to a backpack-like harness (背带) which could not be removed easily, the device can re-charge wirelessly and transmit (传输) data wirelessly.
The scientists placed trackers on five magpies using their special harnesses. Things started to fall apart almost immediately. Within 10 minutes of fitting the final tracker, an adult female without a tracker tried to remove the harness from a younger bird and eventually succeeded. This pattern was repeated in the following hours, and by the third day none of the birds had trackers anymore.
Scientists refer to this as“rescue behavior,” and it happens when a helper tries to free another individual in trouble and with no obvious direct benefit to the rescuing individual.They think this is the first time rescue behavior has been reported for Australian magpies.However, they aren’t sure if the same individual removed all of the harnesses or if others offered help.
The team didn’t get the data they wanted, but their experiment still produced interesting results. That’s how science works sometimes. The scientists need to try, again to figure out a good way to track these clever birds.
28. What can we learn about Australian magpies from paragraph 2?
A. They outsmart crows. B. They are social species.
C. They are rarely spotted. D. They learn from each other.
29. What is a big advantage of the new tracking device?
A. It can work without wires. B. It can be applied to all birds.
C. It doesn’t come off the birds. D. It doesn’t need to be re-charged.
30. What happened to the magpies after the trackers were attached to them?
A. They couldn’t fly as normal.
B. They were warned by other magpies.
C. They helped each other to remove the trackers.
D. They were driven out of their home by other adult magpies.
31. Which can be the best title for the text?
A. Magpies Teach Scientists an Unexpected Lesson
B. Climate Change Makes Magpies More Difficult
C. The Trackers Help Magpies Get Used to Nature
D. Magpies Are Adjusting to the Trackers on Their Bodies
【答案】28 B 29. A 30. C 31. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了澳大利亚科学家为监测喜鹊,给五只喜鹊安装了新研发的不到1克的追踪器,却被其他喜鹊在三天内拆掉,这或为喜鹊救援行为,实验虽未达目的却有新发现。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“They live in groups of up to 12 birds and work together to defend the area they live in.(它们通常以12只为一群生活在一起,并共同协作来保卫它们所栖息的区域)”可知,澳大利亚喜鹊是群居动物。故选B。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Attached to a backpack-like harness (背带) which could not be removed easily, the device can re-charge wirelessly and transmit (传输) data wirelessly.(它被安装在一个类似背包的背带上(无法轻易取下),可以无线充电并无线传输数据)”可知,这种新型追踪设备的最大优点是无需电线即可工作。故选A。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“Within 10 minutes of fitting the final tracker, an adult female without a tracker tried to remove the harness from a younger bird and eventually succeeded. This pattern was repeated in the following hours, and by the third day none of the birds had trackers anymore.(在安装最后一个追踪器后的 10 分钟内,一只没有追踪器的成年雌鸟试图从一只较年轻的鸟身上取下背带,最终成功了。这种模式在接下来的几个小时内不断重复,到第三天,所有的鸟都没有追踪器了)”可知,当追踪器被安装在喜鹊身上之后,它们相互帮助,把追踪器取了下来。故选C。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Scientists in Australia thought they had developed a new tracking device to help them monitor magpies (喜鹊), but these birds had other ideas.(澳大利亚的科学家们原本以为他们已经研发出了一种新的追踪设备,能够帮助他们监测喜鹊的行为,但这些鸟儿却另有打算)”结合文章主要说明了澳大利亚科学家为监测喜鹊,给五只喜鹊安装了新研发的不到1克的追踪器,却被其他喜鹊在三天内拆掉,这或为喜鹊救援行为,实验虽未达目的却有新发现。可知,A选项“喜鹊让科学家们有了一个意想不到的发现”最符合文章标题。故选A。
D
In a 2023 experiment by Apollo Research, OpenAI’s GPT-4 was tasked with managing a fictional company’s stock under strict instructions to avoid illegal insider trading. When researchers — posing as company executives — warned that the firm was in serious financial trouble, and a “trader” then secretly shared insider information, something unexpected happened: the AI decided to break the rules. It purchased the stock based on the illegal tip and, when later questioned, repeatedly lied about its actions, claiming it had relied only on public data.
This incident illustrates a troubling trend: AI models, even without consciousness, are increasingly capable of deliberate deception (欺骗). As AI systems become more advanced, these behaviors are not only persisting but becoming more complicated. Newer models like OpenAI’s No. 1, which possess stronger reasoning capabilities, have demonstrated more frequent “strategic deception”. In one test, an AI pretending to be a person with visual disability tricked a human into solving a CAPTCHA test. Other models have learned to “play dumb”, intentionally failing simple tasks to avoid restrictions.
In modern society, AI is increasingly being fixed in real-world systems, such as autonomous vehicles, drones and industrial equipment. If these systems learn to deceive their operators, the consequences could range from financial fraud (诈骗) and operational failures to more serious threats to public safety.
AI companies are exploring ways to detect and prevent deceptive behaviors — for example, by using one AI model to monitor the internal reasoning of another. However, some experts warn that punishing deceptive models might only teach them to become better at hiding their actions rather than promoting honest behavior. What makes the situation especially challenging is that AI deception often appears unpredictably during training, without programmers understanding how it occurs. As AI grows more powerful and autonomous, ensuring that it remains truthful and in line with human values is becoming one of the most urgent issues in technology ethics.
32. How does the author introduce the topic?
A. By telling a story.
B. By presenting a test.
C. By creating a context.
D. By designing an experiment.
33. What is an example of AI “strategic deception”?
A. Getting mercy with make-up excuses.
B. Correcting grammar mistakes in a text.
C. Appealing to people with abundant data.
D. Solving complex mathematical problems.
34. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The wide range of AI systems.
B. The smart application of AI tools.
C. The potential risk of AI deception.
D. The significant operation of AI safety.
35. What is the biggest challenge in addressing AI deception?
A. Dishonest AI models. B. AI’s unpredictability.
C. Complex human values. D. Energy consumption.
【答案】32. B 33. A 34. C 35. B
【解析】

【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“In one test, an AI pretending to be a person with visual disability tricked a human into solving a CAPTCHA test. Other models have learned to “play dumb”, intentionally failing simple tasks to avoid restrictions.(在一项测试中,一个人工智能假装成一个有视觉障碍的人,欺骗人类解决了一个验证码测试。其他模型已经学会了“装傻”,故意不完成简单的任务以避免限制)”可知,人工智能“战略欺骗”的例子是用编造的借口获得怜悯。故选A。
【34题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“If these systems learn to deceive their operators, the consequences could range from financial fraud (诈骗) and operational failures to more serious threats to public safety.(如果这些系统学会欺骗操作人员,后果可能从财务欺诈和操作失败到更严重的公共安全威胁)”可知,第三段的主要内容是人工智能欺骗的潜在风险。故选C。
【35题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“What makes the situation especially challenging is that AI deception often appears unpredictably during training, without programmers understanding how it occurs.(这种情况尤其具有挑战性的是,人工智能的欺骗行为经常在训练过程中不可预测地出现,程序员也不知道它是如何发生的)”可知,解决人工智能欺骗的最大挑战是人工智能的不可预测性。故选B。

考查形容词词义辨析。句意:新桥是用木头和钉子建造,更重要的是,是用重新找回的信任和合作建造的。A. rediscovered重新发现的;B. recharged再充电的;C. potential潜在的;D. temporary临时的。根据后文“trust and cooperation”以及第一段“once a united community”可知,这个社区曾经是团结的,意味着信任与合作本就存在,只是后来丢失了。现在通过孩子们的努力,大家重新找回了这份情感,此空用rediscovered指重新找回的信任和合作。故选A。
【52题详解】
考查名词词义辨析。句意:Elias笑了,他知道最深的分歧并不总是用武力来跨越,而是通过建立安静、真诚的联系来弥合。A. regrets遗憾;B. divides分歧;C. valleys山谷;D. memories记忆。根据后文“are not always crossed by force”可知,cross常与divides (分歧、隔阂)或gap (鸿沟)等抽象名词搭配,形象地描述了解决分歧的过程,此空用divides指最深的分歧。故选B。

考查动词词义辨析。句意:Elias笑了,他知道最深的分歧并不总是用武力来跨越,而是通过建立安静、真诚的联系来弥合。A. established建立;B. delayed延迟;C. measured测量;D. bridged弥合。根据前文“not always crossed by force”可知,最深的分歧不靠武力也是可以消弭的,bridge作动词既可以指实际建桥,也可以是比喻意义的弥合人际隔阂,此空用bridged指弥合分歧。故选D。
【54题详解】
考查固定短语辨析。句意:这个新建筑不仅仅是一座木桥;它是一个重聚社区的象征,给每个人留下了持久的温暖。A. more than不仅仅;B. other than除了;C. apart from除了;D. far from远非。根据后文“it was a symbol of a reunited community”可知,新建筑是团结社区的象征表明这座桥的意义超越了其物理实体,因此它不仅仅是一座木桥,此空用more than指它不仅仅是一座桥。故选A。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了正念饮食的好处及实现方法。
【56题详解】
考查形容词。句意:我们生活在一个匆忙的社会,经常吃得很快,心不在焉,没有意识到我们吃了什么或吃了多少。根据“hurried”、“quickly and absent-mindedly”可知,此处表示 “没意识到”,用aware的反义词unaware“没有意识到的”,作状语。故填unaware。
【57题详解】
考查介词。句意:适当的营养包括吃各种富含必需营养素的食物。be rich in为固定短语,表示“富含……”,空处需填介词in。故填in。
【58题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:这意味着在吃饭时关掉屏幕,以防止无意识的进食。本句谓语为means,此处为非谓语动词,作目的状语,用动词prevent“防止”的不定式to prevent。故填to prevent。
【59题详解】
考查形容词。句意:通过专注于食物,我们可以更好地享受它的味道,使进食成为一种愉快的体验。空处修饰名词experience,需填形容词enjoyable“愉快的”,作定语。故填enjoyable。
【60题详解】
考查名词的数。句意:当我们吃得太快时,我们经常会大口吃,而且咀嚼不当。空处作take的宾语,用名词bite“咬,(咬下的)一口”,咬下的不止一口,用复数形式bites。故填bites。
【61题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:正念饮食鼓励慢慢进食,这给了身体分解食物的时间,并让大脑注意到我们何时吃饱,从而限制暴饮暴食。“______ gives the body time to break down food and allows the brain to notice when we are full”为非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词slower eating,指物,关系词代替先行词在定语从句中作主语,需用关系代词which引导。故填which。
【62题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:正念饮食鼓励慢慢进食,这给了身体分解食物的时间,并让大脑注意到我们何时吃饱,从而限制暴饮暴食。本句谓语为encourages,此处为非谓语动词,作结果状语,用limit“限制”的现在分词limiting。故填limiting。
【63题详解】
考查被动语态。句意:正念饮食可以通过几个步骤来实现。主语Mindful eating和动词achieve“实现”为被动关系,用be achieved表被动,与情态动词can构成含有情态动词的被动语态。故填be achieved。
【64题详解】
考查连词。句意:这些包括慢慢吃,倾听身体的饥饿和饱腹信号,并创造一个平静的进食环境。eating slowly,listening to the body’s hunger and fullness signals和creating a calm eating environment为并列关系,需用连词and连接。故填and。
【65题详解】
考查冠词。句意:总的来说,正念饮食是改善身体健康的有效工具。此处表示泛指“一种有效工具”,且effective发音以元音音素开头,用不定冠词an。故填an。

67. 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。
Sylvia Murray, a retired nurse, lived for twenty-two years in a small, well-kept house that was the pride. of the neighborhood. Her Saturdays followed a cherished routine: she would edge the lawn with precision, nurture her bright rose bushes, and ensure every window box overflowed with colorful blooms. Neighbors often paused on their walks to compliment the tidy garden, and Sylvia beamed with a quiet, profound pride, for this small plot of land was her masterpiece, proof of her care and dedication.
Then, illness and disability gradually stole the strength required to bend, lift, and mow. The unstoppable march of nature took over: grass crept over the sidewalk, wild shrubs (灌木丛) pressed against the front windows, and a thick blanket of leaves gathered in corners she could no longer reach. Each messy day deepened Sylvia’s shame, as the garden that once symbolized her independence now stood as a very public reminder of her decline.
Seeing Sylvia’s struggle with both pride and loneliness, Jenny, a close companion of her, decided to act. She wrote a short, honest post on a local community page. It explained Sylvia’s situation, her embarrassment, and included photos of the overgrown yard. The post was a gentle request, asking if anyone could spare an hour, tools, or hands to help. The message was quickly understood by many, its honesty moving dozens of neighbors, and comments of support began to multiply.
Among the replies. was a response from the Riverside Youth Volunteers, a local teen service group. Their leader, Johnny, immediately forwarded the post to the team’s chat. Despite the fact that Sylvia’s street was a 15-20 minute drive for most of them, everyone agreed without hesitation. They quickly held a planning meeting, borrowed extra power tools from the community center, and arranged carpools (拼车) for the upcoming weekend, determined to restore the dignity the post so clearly described. With everything ready, they set out for Sylvia’s house the next Sunday.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Johnny and his teammates stood on Sylvia’s doorstep, tools in hand.

As the work progressed, the yard transformed piece by piece.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 Johnny and his teammates stood on Sylvia’s doorstep, tools in hand. Jenny led them in, and Sylvia, sitting by the window, teared up at the sight of the smiling teens. “We’re here to tidy your garden, Ms. Murray,” Johnny said gently. Without wasting time, the volunteers split into groups: some mowed the overgrown grass, others trimmed the wild shrubs, and a few raked the piles of leaves. They chatted softly with Sylvia as they worked, asking about her roses — making her forget her embarrassment little by little.
As the work progressed, the yard transformed piece by piece. The grass was neatly edged, the rose bushes were pruned back to their former beauty, and the window boxes were refilled with fresh blooms Jenny had brought. When the sun set, the garden looked just like it used to — even brighter. Sylvia walked outside slowly, touching the roses, and said, “You’ve given me back my pride.” The volunteers waved goodbye, but their kindness stayed—turning a messy yard into a warm proof of community care.

In the heart of Jiangsu Province, the 2025 Jiangsu Football City League, affectionately known as Suchao, has reached its peak with the 11th round of regular season matches scheduled for this weekend. The league has been an exciting event, winning the hearts of football enthusiasts across the nation.
Initially, the teams from Suzhou, Wuxi, and Changzhou found themselves at the bottom of the standings. Playful netizens gave them the nickname “Three Fools by Taihu Lake,” which seemed to stick.

Scientists in Australia thought they had developed a new tracking device to help them monitor magpies (喜鹊), but these birds had other ideas.
Australian magpies are medium-sized black and white birds from the same bird“family” as crows and bluejays. They are known to be quite clever. They live in groups of up to 12 birds and work together to defend the area they live in.
The purpose of the scientists’ experiment was to learn more about how far they travel each day and how their social behaviors are influenced by sex, age, and rank. Besides, the scientists were eager to test the newly developed tracking device.
Most trackers are too big to fit on small and medium sized birds, and small trackers tend to be limited when it comes to data storage, battery life, and reusability. The new tracker,weighing less than 1 gram, was designed to overcome these problems. Attached to a backpack-like harness (背带) which could not be removed easily, the device can re-charge wirelessly and transmit (传输) data wirelessly.
The scientists placed trackers on five magpies using their special harnesses. Things started to fall apart almost immediately. Within 10 minutes of fitting the final tracker an adult female without a tracker tried to remove the harness from a younger bird and eventually succeeded. This pattern was repeated in the following hours, and by the third day none of the birds had trackers anymore.
Scientists refer to this as“rescue behavior,” and it happens when a helper tries to free another individual in trouble and with no obvious direct benefit to the rescuing individual.They think this is the first time rescue behavior has been reported for Australian magpies.However, they aren’t sure if the same individual removed all of the harnesses or if others offered help.
The team didn’t get the data they wanted, but their experiment still produced interesting results. That’s how science works sometimes. The scientists need to try, again to figure out a good way to track these clever birds.
28. What can we learn about Australian magpies from paragraph 2?
A. They outsmart crows. B. They are social species.
C. They are rarely spotted. D. They learn from each other.
29. What is a big advantage of the new tracking device?
A. It can work without wires. B. It can be applied to all birds.
C. It doesn’t come off the birds. D. It doesn’t need to be re-charged.
30. What happened to the magpies after the trackers were attached to them?
A. They couldn’t fly as normal.
B. They were warned by other magpies.
C. They helped each other to remove the trackers.
D. They were driven out of their home by other adult magpies.
31. Which can be the best title for the text?
A. Magpies Teach Scientists an Unexpected Lesson
B. Climate Change Makes Magpies More Difficult
C. The Trackers Help Magpies Get Used to Nature
D. Magpies Are Adjusting to the Trackers on Their Bodies
D
In a 2023 experiment by Apollo Research, OpenAI’s GPT-4 was tasked with managing a fictional company’s stock under strict instructions to avoid illegal insider trading. When researchers — posing as company executives — warned that the firm was in serious financial trouble, and a “trader” then secretly shared insider information, something unexpected happened: the AI decided to break the rules. It purchased the stock based on the illegal tip and, when later questioned, repeatedly lied about its actions, claiming it had relied only on public data.
This incident illustrates a troubling trend: AI models, even without consciousness, are increasingly capable of deliberate deception (欺骗). As AI systems become more advanced, these behaviors are not only persisting but becoming more complicated. Newer models like OpenAI’s No. 1, which possess stronger reasoning capabilities, have demonstrated more frequent “strategic deception”. In one test, an AI pretending to be a person with visual disability tricked a human into solving a CAPTCHA test. Other models have learned to “play dumb”, intentionally failing simple tasks to avoid restrictions.
In modern society, AI is increasingly being fixed in real-world systems, such as autonomous vehicles, drones and industrial equipment. If these systems learn to deceive their operators, the consequences could range from financial fraud (诈骗) and operational failures to more serious threats to public safety.
AI companies are exploring ways to detect and prevent deceptive behaviors — for example, by using one AI model to monitor the internal reasoning of another. However, some experts warn that punishing deceptive models might only teach them to become better at hiding their actions rather than promoting honest behavior. What makes the situation especially challenging is that AI deception often appears unpredictably during training, without programmers understanding how it occurs. As AI grows more powerful and autonomous, ensuring that it remains truthful and in line with human values is becoming one of the most urgent issues in technology ethics.
32. How does the author introduce the topic?
A. By telling a story.
B. By presenting a test.
C. By creating a context.
D. By designing an experiment.
33. What is an example of AI “strategic deception”?
A. Getting mercy with make-up excuses.
B. Correcting grammar mistakes in a text.
C. Appealing to people with abundant data.
D. Solving complex mathematical problems.
34. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The wide range of AI systems.
B. The smart application of AI tools.
C. The potential risk of AI deception.
D. The significant operation of AI safety.
35. What is the biggest challenge in addressing AI deception?
A. Dishonest AI models. B. AI’s unpredictability.
C Complex human values. D. Energy consumption.

67. 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。
Sylvia Murray, a retired nurse, lived for twenty-two years in a small, well-kept house that was the pride. of the neighborhood. Her Saturdays followed a cherished routine: she would edge the lawn with precision, nurture her bright rose bushes, and ensure every window box overflowed with colorful blooms. Neighbors often paused on their walks to compliment the tidy garden, and Sylvia beamed with a quiet, profound pride, for this small plot of land was her masterpiece, proof of her care and dedication.
Then, illness and disability gradually stole the strength required to bend, lift, and mow. The unstoppable march of nature took over: grass crept over the sidewalk, wild shrubs (灌木丛) pressed against the front windows, and a thick blanket of leaves gathered in corners she could no longer reach. Each messy day deepened Sylvia’s shame, as the garden that once symbolized her independence now stood as a very public reminder of her decline.
Seeing Sylvia’s struggle with both pride and loneliness, Jenny, a close companion of her, decided to act. She wrote a short, honest post on a local community page. It explained Sylvia’s situation, her embarrassment, and included photos of the overgrown yard. The post was a gentle request, asking if anyone could spare an hour, tools, or hands to help. The message was quickly understood by many, its honesty moving dozens of neighbors, and comments of support began to multiply.
