What to expect ·Farm volunteers typically help with tasks such as planting,harvesting,weeding(除草)，and other farm maintenance. Farm volunteers may also assist with animal care,such as feeding. Farm volunteers may be asked to help with marketing and sales activities,such as attending farmers markets. Farm volunteers may also be asked to help with educational activities,such as leading tours of the farm and teaching visitors about sustainable farming practices. Benefits Through a hands-on approach to agriculture requiring one's input from seedling to harvest time, volunteers learn sustainable practices,leading to wise consumerism habits. Current situations An FAO(Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations)report indicated over 10%of farms globally hosted volunteers throughout their operational cycle in 2023 and according to data from Worldpackers,there are nearly 500 farm volunteering opportunities across varied continents.This represents an increase of roughly 15%as compared to the previous year. 广东·北师大·高二英语第1页（共8页） 蠡田全任 How to choose When checking out individual farm opportunities,you should pay close attention to their website or listing descriptions for details such as: Types of tasks involved; Skills or prior experience required; Accommodation and meal arrangements; Expectations around work hours and attitude; ·Provisions(提供)for free time or off days.

During the outbreak of epidemic(流行病)，ten-year-old Aadi Kulkarni watched his grandmother struggle to join family video calls,open attachments and fill out online medical forms.It was more than staying connected in an online world;Kulkarni realized an entire generation struggled with decreasing dignity and confidence.He also wanted his own generation to have the same type of respectful relationship he had with his grandmother. "What if,"he thought,"students like me,who grew up with technology,could help seniors like her feel less left behind?" So he founded TechPals.Kulkarni began with a few friends and a handful of seniors at the local library.They started by teaching the basics of smartphones.What he thought would be a few lessons turned into regularly scheduled events.Seniors brought their friends.Kulkarni made more friends.He coded a central website to manage volunteer sign-ups. 广东·北师大·高二英语第2页（共8页） 紧因全任 0.2-2-2- "I've learned that social impact doesn't have to require millions of dollars,"says Kulkarni. "Somctimes,it starts with a few students,a library room and the courage to show up." Digital knowledge crosses the divide to help every generation access the amazing world technology has brought us.But technology is best when added to face-to-face relationships-like that created when a seasoned grandmother connects with a young grandson and both are eager to learn from each other. 24.What does the author mean by saying "a completely different language"?

A.Kulkarni:Teaching His Grandmother Tech Skills B.Technology:Expanding the Gap Facing the Seniors C.TechPals:Bridging the Tech Divide between Generations D.Young Generations:Seeing the Trouble Faced by the Seniors The simple act of looking at a piece of visual art can improve your well-being,a new research study has found,and this benefit can be gained in a hospital setting as well as an art gallery. Previous research has suggested that viewing art might influence mood or stress,but the research was limited and the findings were different,the authors say.This study examined decades of scattered (research,providing for the first time a clear and all-sided overview of when,where and why art viewing is used to promote well-being. The review of 38 previously published studies covering a total of 6,805 participants was conducted by a team of psychologists from University of Vienna,Trinity College Dublin,and Humboldt University of Berlin.The study found that viewing art can improve well-being,which is associated with meaning in life and personal growth. These benefits were noticed in a variety of locations-in museums and galleries as well as clinics and hospital settings and also through the medium of virtual reality.A wide range of art types including abstract,modern paintings,photography and sculpture were found to promote well-being. “People often think of art as a luxury(奢侈品)，but our research suggest that viewing art- whether as a hobby or as a targeted health intervention-can meaningfully support well-being.This research opens up exciting possibilities for integrating art into everyday environments and public health strategies."said MacKenzie Trupp,lead author and researcher at the University of Vienna and Radboud UMC.Donders Institute. 广东·北师大·高二英语第3页（共8页） 紧因全任 -。-。。2。一 Claire Howlin,Assistant Professor,School of Psychology,Trinity College Dublin,added:"While the mental health benefits of creating art have been widely explored,the impact of viewing art has been under-researched and undervalued.Yet visual art is present and accessible in everyday spaces- museums,galleries,hospitals,and at home.Understanding its effects can unlock new avenues for promoting well-being through everyday encounters with art. 28.Compared with the previous research,the new study is A.thorough B.original C.one-sided D.limited 29.How did the researchers draw the new conclusion? A.By reviewing previous research. B.By performing scores of experiments. C.By interviewing thousands of participants. D.By keeping track of experimental subjects. 30.What is the significance of the study? A.It puts forward the theory behind art viewing. B.It proves art viewing as a simple way of communicating. C.It lays the foundation of creative approaches to curing patients. D.It points out the possibility of applying art to routine health care. 31.What can be inferred from Claire Howlin's words? A.The effect of viewing art has fully been explored. B.Daily encounter with art is the key to improving health C.Promoting people's appreciation of art is a crucial task. D.Visual art should be taken fully advantage of in daily life 0 Large ice balls fall from the sky,bounce off hard surfaces-and sometimes even break windshields and hurt crops.Maybe you've seen these pieces of ice laying on the ground after a storm.Their attacks start and stop suddenly,seemingly without warning.This is a hailstorm().And it can be a truly impressive sight. Particularly large or dense hailstones can damage human-made structures and objects,such as buildings and cars.Zach Lebo knows this firsthand.A scientist studying weather,he works at the University of Oklahoma in Norman.His parents in Pennsylvania had to replace their home's roof twice in the last 10 years due to hail damage. Researchers are hoping to better understand hail.One big question is how hail moves through the atmosphere and builds up in size.Some hailstones have measured more than 13 centimeters across. That's larger than a softball! Scientists used to think that hailstones grew by taking a looping (path through the atmosphere.But such looping motions are actually rare,scientists in China have now shown.Now they can estimate the paths each ice ball took through the sky by analyzing the chemistry of some hailstones collected by citizen scientists and then matching that chemistry with the properties of the atmosphere at different heights. 广东·北师大·高二英语第4页（共8页） 餐巴扫描全能王 然病1之人群直用的日情A中 。…。2.2-2-2- Studying the shapes of hailstones also can help explain how each hailstone forms.Hailstones are seldom perfect ice balls,which come in all sorts of weird shapes,says Becky Adams-Selin,an American hail scientist.Some hailstones present leaf-like pieces of ice,she notes,and others can have sticking-out parts. She also developed a device to store hailstones as her team drives around."It's like a giant funnel ()that collects hail and funnels it into a battery-powered freezer,"she explains. Hailstones are a window into the atmosphere.It can be hard to directly observe where hail forms, Becky Adams-Selin explains."We're blind to what's happening inside the clouds.But hailstones deliver clues about what's going on high in the sky right into scientists'hands. 32.What does the example of Zach Lebo's families show? A.Hailstones can really cause great damage. B.Pennsylvania often gets struck by hailstones. C.People have no good methods of knowing hail. D.Scientists can't always predict hailstones accurately 33.What contributions have Chinese scientists made? A.They have invented a battery-powered freezer. B.They can change the shape of hailstones at will. C.They have discovered how hailstones form in the air. D.They can figure out how hailstones travel in the atmosphere. 34.What does the underlined word "weird"in paragraph 5 probably mean? A.Round. B.Typical. C.Strange. D.Regular. 35.What is the author's attitude towards hail? A.Critical. B.Objective. C.Indifferent. D.Negative. 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能填人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Getting creative is more than just making art.It's an act of self-care that allows you to clear your mind,take a break from stress,and let your imagination run wild.You don't have to be Mozart or Picasso to get creative!36 From writing a journal to doing an arts and crafts project,enjoy all the benefits of promoting creativity. It helps reduce stress.Stress can have a bad influence on your mental and physical health. Therefore,stress management techniques are important for your well-being.Engaging in creative activities can help have a more positive mindset.37 Instead,you allow your mind to wander freely as you come up with your own unique and creative ideas. It makes you more adaptable.Life doesn't always go as planned.Learning to take creative approaches can help you deal with these types of situations easily.It teaches you problem-solving skills that enable you to think outside the box.38 It helps deal with emotions.Whether you're recording your thoughts,or getting lost in an arts and crafts project,the goal is to release what no longer serves you.39 Undoubtedly,this imagination is 广东·北师大·高二英语第5页（共8页） 紧因金手 。2-22 one of the mind's most powerful tools for healing.It's less about the final product and more about the freedom in the process. 40 If you feel lost,set aside more time for creative pursuits.Everyday creativity,from handmade gifts to hobbies,deepens your personal development and brings joy.Finding a passion for creative work can also help shape your identity.It gives you a sense of direction as you try to get better and better at your creative goals.
