We aim to offer accommodation to all first year students. First of all, there's Brown hall, which is not the most modern of buildings, but IT is very repopulation. Unlike the other halls, IT has recently had a gym built in its basement. Another option is Blake residents built like a large house. Everybody cooks and deeds together. IT has a private garden and is even more peaceful because this is an all girl's residents, but boys can visit IT. The largest one we have is queens building, and this has been upgraded recently. The original parking area has been built on a bedroom, now has its own shower room. A further option is the parkway floats with a preservation order. This has meant that only a limited amount could be done to upgraded, and the surrounding area is important, so parking is not permitted around the flats. However, the flat do have many extra facilities, such as a special computer room, a small library and a self service restaurant. The cost of meals is covered in the fees, so IT does look a bit more expensive. Good afternoon, and welcome to stand in university. I'm here to tell you about the various storms we have.

Dear Mr. Smith,
I’m thrilled to hear that you’re planning a new course for the interest group. I’d like to recommend “Appreciation of Western Drama” as a potential topic.
This course would be highly beneficial for two main reasons. First of all, it offers a fascinating window into western culture and history. What’s more, by reading and acting out scripts, we can dramatically improve our pronunciation and understanding of idiomatic English.
I believe many students, including myself, are eager to explore the world of theater. Thank you for considering my suggestion.
Yours,
Li Hua

Dear Mr. Smith,
Regarding the new interest group course, I am writing to propose “English Debating Skills”.
This topic is highly relevant in an academic environment and would attract many students. I believe this course would be extremely valuable. Not only would it help us structure our arguments logically and think critically, but it would also provide a practical environment to enhance fluency and confidence in speaking. These skills are crucial for our future studies.
We are all looking forward to the possibility of such an engaging and challenging course.
Yours,
Li Hua

【答案】The man heard a slight shake in Reuben’s voice and could tell he was close to tears. “Why do you need this money so badly?” “It’s a secret.” The man took the sacks, reached into his pocket and put four coins in Reuben’s hand. Reuben murmured a thank you and ran home. Then, holding the tin can in his hand, he headed for the shop. “I have the money.” he told the owner proudly. The man went to the window and fetched Reuben’s treasure. He wiped the dust off and gently wrapped it in brown paper.
Then the shopkeeper placed the jewel box in Reuben’s hands. Racing home, Reuben burst through the front door. “Here, Mum! Here!” Reuben exclaimed as he ran to her excitedly. Then he placed a small box in her work roughened hand. Mum unwrapped it carefully. A blue-velvet jewel box appeared. Mum gently lifted the lid, with tears welling up in her eyes. She had never received such a precious gift. A smile flashing across her face, she held Reuben tightly in her arms.

Originally from Hemker Wildlife Park in Texas, Linda, a four-year-old, eight-foot-tall female ostrich (鸵鸟) arrived in Washington, D.C. last November and has been adjusting well to her new life at the Smithsonian’s National Zoo. Ostriches are the world’s largest bird and can weigh around 200 and 350 pounds. The birds, while flightless, have no problem getting around with their powerful long legs. In a single step, the animals can cover 10 to 16 feet and run up to 43 miles per hour.
The National Zoo housed ostriches in its collection when it first opened in the late 1880s. Before Linda, the zoo hosted another flightless bird, Darwin, a male emu (鸸鹋) who passed away in 2018. “Although our team has cared for a variety of birds, it has been many years since we worked with a large, flightless bird. Zoo-goers may fondly remember our late emu Darwin, who seemed to enjoy watching visitors as much as they enjoyed watching him!” said Tallie Wiles, one of the keepers at the National Zoo.
Ostriches feed on small animals like mice, frogs, insects, and small plants in the wild. While at the zoo, Linda will receive various produce, insects, and pills enriched with vitamins and nutrients. During the last few months in our care, the team has learned Linda’s personality. “She keeps us on our toes. Just when we think we know what she’s going to do, she changes her routine and does something a little unexpected!” said Tallie Wiles.
Soon after Linda adapts to her environment and the animal care team prepares her outdoor habitat, she will be ready to greet visitors. Until then, zoo officials will post updates on Linda’s first appearance to the National Zoo’s website and social media pages.
24. What do we know about Linda?
A. She is very popular with visitors. B. She is a young female ostrich from Texas.
C. She was born at the National Zoo. D. She has struggled to fit into the new zoo.
25. What was special about Darwin?
A. He weighed over 350 pounds. B. He was able to fly high and fast.
C. He could run 43 miles per hour. D. He was comfortable with people.
26. Which of the following best explains “on our toes” underlined in paragraph 3?
A. On board. B. In advance.
C. On guard. D. In shape.
27. What will Linda probably do next?
A. Meet tourists at the National Zoo. B. Prepare to greet another new bird.
C. Travel back to her original habitat. D. Learn to live on her own in the wild.
C
Anyone who has taken a standardized test knows that writing an essay in 20 minutes or less takes serious brain power. Having access to artificial intelligence (AI) would certainly lighten the mental load. But as a recent study by researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) suggests, that help may come at a cost.
Over the course of a series of essay-writing sessions, students working with as well as without an AI chatbot had their brain activity measured. Across the board, the AI users exhibited markedly lower brain activity in areas associated with creative functions and attention.
Whether AI will leave people’s brains weak in the long term remains an open question. Researchers behind this study have stressed that further work is needed to establish a definitive causal link between increased AI use and weakened brains. After all, the study had a tiny sample size and focused on a single narrow task.
Moreover, generative AI tools clearly seek to lighten people’s mental loads, as many other technologies do. Concerns about this kind of offloading aren’t new. As long ago as the 5th century BC, Socrates was quoted as complaining that writing is not “a potion (神药) for remembering, but for reminding”. Calculators spare cashiers from computing a bill. Navigation apps remove the need for map-reading. And yet few would argue that people are less capable as a result.
There is little evidence to suggest that letting machines handle users’ mental tasks alters the brain’s capacity for thinking. But the worry is that generative AI allows one to offload a thought process. And once the brain has developed a taste for offloading, it can be a hard habit to kick. As one user put it, “I rely so much on AI that I don’t think I’d know how to solve certain problems without it.”
The technology is so young that, for many tasks, the human brain is still the sharpest tool in the toolkit. But in time both the consumers of AI and its regulators will have to assess whether its wider benefits outweigh any cognitive (认知) costs. If stronger evidence emerges that AI makes people less intelligent, will they care?
28. What did the MIT study find?
A. AI users showed less mental engagement. B. AI left people’s brains weak.
C. AI lightened the mental load in writing. D. AI users associated creativity with attention.
29. According to Socrates, what negative consequence could writing have?
A. People would avoid using reminders. B. People would stop thinking independently.
C. People would rely less on their own memory. D. People would care less about the spoken word.
30. What point does the user’s remark in paragraph 5 illustrate?
A. AI can change users’ mental capacity. B. AI is not widely available to the public.
C. AI can encourage users’ mental laziness. D. AI is not capable of solving every problem.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Will AI Make You Stupid? B. How AI Lets You Offload Tasks
C. Why AI Affects Your Thinking Abilities D. Is AI a Mental Shortcut You Can easily Quit?
D
Researchers from the University of Bath recently developed a new touch screen that’s capable of changing its shape and hardness when users apply various levels of force to it. The screen, which they refer to as “DeformIO”, uses air-powered systems and sensors to detect levels of pressure applied by a finger and then collapse (凹陷) around it. The researchers say it could add a new input layer (输入层) to mobile devices that could be used for a wide variety of tasks, from looking through digital maps to playing games and “feeling” the hardness of products virtually.
Though DeformIO, which is 3mm thick with a 140 mm² surface layer, isn’t the first changeable screen, it can apply several force inputs on various parts of the screen at the same time, which means users can experience a feeling of continuous tactile (触觉的) response while moving their finger across the screen. “In other words, DeformIO allows users to feel a richer, more tactile and natural response as they press the surface,” lead author James Nash said.
If the new screens are ever indeed applied to widespread consumer mobile devices, they could change the way users interface with apps and services used on a daily basis. The researchers imagine a situation where a future traveler equipped with DeformIO uses it to move through sections of the digital map. In this example, the traveler could quickly switch between the road view section of a map and satellite view by simply applying more and less pressure on the screen.
It’s uncertain if everyday phone users will find the new screen attractive enough to give up their glass touch screens. Less advanced mobile designs like foldable screens, which have already existed for years, are still struggling to gain wide use outside of a limited audience. It’s possible that screens like DeformIO could end up the same way. “We hope that in 10 to 20 years” time, the concepts it presents could be in your mobile phone. For now, we’re exploring the applications it might be best suited to.” Nash said.
32. What can be learned about DeformIO?
A. It’s a protective layer for screens. B. It’s a screen with tactile flexibility.
C. It performs different tasks together. D. It senses changes in users’ identity.
33. What makes DeformIO stand out among other similar designs?
A. Its adaptable appearance. B. Its better-quality sensors.

One of the most common mistakes people make when trying to improve their health is attempting too many sudden and great changes. Crash diets, extreme workout plans, or sudden sleep adjustments often fail because they’re unsustainable. ____36____ Here are some practical yet powerful tips to help you:
Start with small, achievable goals.
____37____ For example, they hope to run 5 miles daily without prior training. Instead, they should begin with manageable steps — take the stairs instead of the elevator, or do 10 minutes of stretching each morning. These minor adjustments prevent burnout while steadily improving your strength and endurance.
____38____
Being too strict with what one eats often backfires. This often leads to quick weight regain and frustration. Instead of banning foods, focus on adding more whole, nutrient-rich options like vegetables, lean proteins, and healthy fats. For example, swap soda for sparkling water with lemon, or replace white bread with whole-grain alternatives. Small, sustainable changes lead to lasting results without the frustration of yo-yo dieting.
Prioritize sleep for overall well-being.
In today’s fast-paced world, sleep is often sacrificed for productivity or entertainment. ____39____ Sleep deprivation weakens immunity, increases stress hormones, and even contributes to weight gain. To improve sleep quality, establish a calming bedtime routine — dim the lights, avoid screens an hour before bed, and keep a consistent sleep schedule, even on weekends.
Stay active throughout the day.
Sitting for long periods is linked to poor circulation, back pain, and metabolic issues. If you have a desk job, set reminders to stand up and move every hour. ____40____ Simple activities like walking during phone calls or doing light stretches can boost energy, improve posture, and enhance mental clarity.
A. Be consistent rather than extreme.
B. Focus on nutrition, not just dieting.
C. Listen to your body’s needs and adjust accordingly.
D. It can help reduce stress and improves circulation.
E. The best habits are those you can maintain without feeling deprived.
F. Many people get discouraged because they start with too high goals.
G. You might think you can go with little of it, but your body pays the price.

“I didn’t pick peonies (牡丹). They picked me,” says Kathleen Gagan, owner and founder of Peony’s Envy display garden in Bernardsville. The garden’s playful name was 41 years ago at a party, when Gagan enthusiastically announced her 42 to start a peony farm in her backyard. One of the guests said, “Sounds 43 —— I’m sure we’ll all have peonies envy!”
Having 44 lived a dynamic lifestyle working as a consultant and linguist overseas for 15 years, Gagan was happy to 45 back into Bernardsville. In 2002, she planted her first peony crop. Four years later, she began 46 rootstock (根茎) commercially and opened her garden to the 47 because she was “eager to build something that others could visit and enjoy.” Today, her property is home to one of the most extensive 48 of peonies in the country.
Gagan, a nationally 49 gardening expert, appreciates the laid-back presence of established peonies because, 50 other crops, they are easy to maintain. “Before starting my peony garden, I 51 at a peach orchard (果园) because deer ate all the trees. Then I tried raising irises(鸢尾花), with no luck,” she says. “Finally, I had success with peonies. 52 and rabbits don’t like them, and the established plants require 53 care. Everything you do for them comes back year after year because it’s a generous plant that 54 so much more than it takes.”
Peony’s Envy is open daily from the last Friday in April through the second Sunday in June. To fully experience all it has to 55 , some guests visit weekly. In these blooms, people find a mirror to life’s simplest wisdom: true beauty asks for little, but gives endlessly.

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。
A 12-year-old boy saw something in a shop window that set his heart racing. It was a jewel box. But the price—five dollars—was far beyond Reuben Earle’s means. However, he opened the door and went inside. Standing proud and straight, he told the shopkeeper what he wanted, adding, “But I don’t have the money right now. Can you please hold it for me for some time?”
“I’ll try,” the shopkeeper smiled.
“I will raise the five dollars and not tell anybody,” Reuben said to himself.
Hearing the sound of hammering from a side street, Reuben had an idea. People built their own homes in Bay Roberts, using nails purchased in sacks (麻布袋) from a local factory. Sometimes the sacks were abandoned, and Reuben knew he could sell them back to the factory for five cents a piece.
That day he found two sacks and sold to the man in charge of packing nails.
The boy’s hand tightly held the five-cent pieces as he ran home. Near his house stood the ancient barn (谷仓). Reuben found a soda tin and dropped his coins inside. Then he climbed into the top of the barn and hid the tin.
All summer long, despite housework at home Reuben kept to his secret task. Often he was cold, tired and hungry, but the thought of the object in the shop window sustained him.
Mother’s Day had come! He uncovered the tin can, poured the coins out and began to count. He needed 20 cents more. He had to find four more sacks and sell them before the day ended.
Towards evening Reuben arrived at the factory. The sack buyer was about to lock up.
“Mister! Please don’t close up yet.”
The man turned and saw Reuben, dirty and sweat stained.
“Come back tomorrow, boy.”
“Please, Mister. I have to sell the sacks now — please.”
注意:
1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右;
2.续写部分分为两段,每段的开头语已为你写好。
The man heard a slight shake in Reuben’s voice and could tell he was close to tears._____________
