B Toronto-based artist Ava Roth is unlike other cooperative artists:instead of working with people,she works with bees.As a painter,embroiderer (and mixed-media artist,she has spent the past decade experimenting with the unique medium of honeycomb(蜂巢)， In her latest collection,Roth employs the help of local honeybees to create amazing pieces that perfectly represent the co-existence of human,beings and nature.Her works combine various man-made materials with the complex pattern of a raw honeycomb. During the cooperation,Roth's part of work comes in the form of art picture hung in embroidery circles.Using her mastery of embroidery techniques,she creates designs with thread while including locally found materials,such as wood,plants and horsehair.After she arranges these elements to her liking,.the bees come in to add their touch. Roth then attaches the circle to beekeeping frames and places it in a bee box.Over time,thousands of bees fill the frame with honeycomb,changing the piece into its final,fascinating form.The artistic cooperation between the honeybees and Roth's creativity results in a unique and original work of art. Her direct cooperation with bees is just one aspect of her work.Roth also uses honeycomb in other collections, including sewn paintings,embroideries,and works on paper.In her work,Roth integrates the theme of the human relationship to the natural world,reflecting on how people shape nature to meet their needs and imaging a more beautiful outcome of our cncounter. With the role honeybees play in pollinating many of the world's crops,the species is vital to food production. Despite their essential duty,honeybee populations have been facing a growing decline worldwide,caused by factors such as climate change,habit.t loss and pesticides.Roth raises awareness of this extraordinary species'depopulation through her unique practice,exhibiting their exceptional architectural abilities and essential role in human life. 24.What is special about Ava Roth's artistic practice? A.She focuses on the theme of nature.B.She employs bees to create artworks C.She doesn't cooperate with other artists.D.She only uses natural materials for her art. 25.What is mainly talked about in paragraph 3? A.The design of different elements.B.The complex results of art making. C.The difficulty of bonding with bees.D.The unique process of art creation. 26.What can we know about Roth's work from the text? A.It highlights the exploration of nature.B.It reflects on how nature influences people. C.It advocates the harmony between man and nature.D.It aims to solve the issue of honeybee depopulation. 27.Which of the following best describes the impact of Roth's practice? 3 巴阳m全红 A.Far-reaching. B.Unrecognizable. C.Short-lived. D.Flexible. C Do you have a suit or dress in the closet that you'haven't worn for years but are unwilling to get rid of?Maybe you say,"I can't throw that away because I paid good money for it."If you recognize this in yourself,then you are suffering from commitment to the sunk cost fallacy(沉没成本谬误)，It occurs when we feel that we have invested too much to quit.This psychological trap causes us to stick with a plan even if it no longer serves us and the costs clearly outweigh the benefits. Arkes and Blumer conducted a survey revealing that people are influenced by sunk cost fallacy in their decisions. Participants were asked to imagine a situation where they accidentally booked two ski tickets for the same datc, spending $100 on a ski trip to Michigan and $50 on Wisconsin.They were also told the latter would be more enjoyable.It turned out that 54%chose Michigan despite the reasonable choice being Wisconsin,because they had made a greater initial investment. Sunk cost'fallacy takes place when we let emotions cloud our decisions.Once we've invested in a choice,we feel gullt or regret if we don't follow through,without realizing that past investments won't be recovered.Instead,we base decisions on past costs,ignoring present and future costs and benefits.This mdy be due to loss aversion(), where people place more weight on losses than on gains.As a result,our decisions often aim to avoid losses instead of seeking the benefits gained if we let go of the past commitment. No one ean deny the fact that we'benefit a lot from perseverance.So our society loves to emphasize perseverance().Never give up!Don't waste!But only you know the right path for you.Sometimes walking away is the hardest choice of all.You might'realize a path'you're on is no longer the right one or never was.That's a painful realization. 28.What phenomenon does the author describe at the beginning of the text? A.People benefit from sticking with a plan. B.People's consumption view has changed. C.People refuse to give up the past commitment.D.People's clothes are becoming more expensive. 29.Why did 54%of the participants choose the Michigan trip? A.To appear more reasonable. B,To save more of the loss. C.To make a greater investment. D.To enjoy more of themselves. 30.When does "sunk cost fallacy"occur? A.When we don't follow through our choices. B.When we attach more importance to potential gains. C.When we feel it worthwhile to invest in past decisions. D.When we emotionally stick with investment already made. 31.What is the author's attitude toward perseverance? A.Cautious. B.Favorable. C.Disapproving. D.Indifferent. D Over a decade ago,the science fiction series Black Mirror showed a story about using artificial intelligence to bring back loved ones.Thanks to techinological advancement,the latest AI resurrection technology brings hope of recreating loved ones through virtual form. 鬻巴行混全王 Recently,it was revealed that renowned musician Tino Bao had created a digital version of his daughter,who in 2021 passed away due to a rare disease at the age of 22.With the help of Xiaoice,Microsoft Asia's AI branch based in China,Bao was able to recrcate his daughter Bao Rong as an Al-powered virtual figure.Tino Bao,his family and the team went to great lengths to piece together pictures,audio-visual recordings,and narrated memories of Rong.After thousands of trials and errors,they presented the life-like digital human who speaks in both Mandarin and English. Bao has finally launched a company to bring the technological miracle to other families experiencing such loss. However,this technological achievement has also been accompanied by many controversies.The idea of bringing back a loved one through AI may seem comforting.Still,researchers caution that constantly interacting with an AI version ofa deceased loved one could potentially affect the natural grieving (process,leaving individuals stuck in a state of denial.This could lead to prolonged grief and other mental health issues.Furthermore,there's a risk that people may become overly dependent on the technology,prioritizing their interactions with the AI version over forming new,real-life relationships. With the case of Bao Rong out in the open,AI resurrection has become a business.From simple "talking pictures" that sound nothing like the loved ones to deepfake videos of actors speaking with the faces of those who passed away, the lower end of the market is more "artificial"than "intelligent".Therefore,it is crucial to establish proper regulations and ethical standards to ensure that the use of AI-resurrection technology is safe and responsible. 32.What does the underlined word "resurrection"in para.1 most likely mean? A.The act of bringing something back to life or existence. B.The process of improving AI technology. C.The development of new virtual forms. D.The combination of memories and technology. 33.What is a possible consequence of constantiy interacting with an AI version of a deceased loved one? A.It may cause people to forget the real memories of the loved one. B.It may prevent people from using other AI technologies. C.It may prolong the natural grieving process and cause mental health problems. D.It may lead to the decline of the AI industry. 34.Which of the foliowing statements about the future of Al resurrection technology is correct? A.It wiil eventually replace traditional ways of memorizing loved ones. B.It needs proper regulations and ethical standards to ensure safe and responsible use. C.It will be completely banned due to ethical concems. D.It will develop healthily without proper regulations. 35.What is the main idea of the passage? A.The introduction of the science fiction series Black Mirror. B.The process of creating an AI version ofa loved one. C.The benefits and controversies of using AI to recreate loved ones. D.The development of AI technology in the field of music. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读短文，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。 5 鬻田行全任 As an artist who shares her joumey on social media,I'm often asked by curious followers how to begin an art journey.Unfortunately,there is no magic list I can offer.I do remember,though,what it was like to be a complete beginner.So I've put together some good tips for starting an art joumney. -Start small.I suggest using a sketchbook (for small studies.These small studies provide inspiration and may be a springboard (for more complex works in the future.36 You'll want to look back on your joumey to see how far you've come. .Paint often and paint from life.There's no better way to improve than to put in those brush miles.Whether you paint still lifes,portraits,or landscapes,paint from life as much as possible.37 .Continually challenge yourself to try something new.38Artistic growth can be a bit painful.Welcome to the club we've all been there.I love taking on challenges.I once took up a challenge to create a painting every day for a month and post the works online. .39 Seeking and accepting constructive fecdback (is crucial to growth.I post my work on social media and,in turn,have met some of the kindest people.They make me feel valued and respected,no matter.my level of artistic ability.
