【原文】M: Welcome to the show The Teachers’ Room, which is about teaching practice. The first day with a new class can be frightening! Let’s talk about three things you can do with a new class. First, break the ice. Ice-breaking games are a good way to help a new group come together. They should allow everyone to take part without feeling awkward. For example, one idea is “What’s in Your Schoolbag?” Ask students to empty their schoolbags to find an object that is important to them. Let the group guess why the object is important before the owner explains its meaning. Second, the first day is also perfect for you to understand what your students expect to do. Lastly, it is important to establish class rules on the first day. You should get students to debate some rules for the class. This gives them some responsibility, and makes them more likely to follow the rules. Thank you for joining us in The Teachers’ Room, and we hope these tips can help make your first day with a new class a success!

Future Heroes is Museum of the Future’s special space for children. Within an open world of exploration and play, children are encouraged to develop skills that will always be useful.
The exhibition’s (展览) three main experiences — Imagine, Design and Build — provide children with chances that enable them to play and learn through activities that encourage communication, teamwork and creativity.
At any given moment, the little future heroes may be called on to take part in urgent tasks. These tasks present challenges that must be dealt with in a limited time. Monitored (监控) by the Museum’s Future Heroes expert guides, these tasks encourage children to work together towards a shared goal and improve their critical thinking, courage and confidence. These qualities are rewarded with badges (徽章) that celebrate making positive contributions to the Future Heroes world by helping, solving problems, creating something new or trying something they have never done before. Players can collect as many of these badges as they want and can save them.
Tickets are needed to enter the Museum of the Future. $169 for adults; $100 for children aged five and above. But some people can get a free entry to the Museum of the Future; Children under four years old. Pre-booking is not required.

For 15 years, Hillary Cohen has been busy with behind-the-scenes work in the film industry. One of the benefits she enjoyed was the meals provided on the set — delicious, chef-prepared food like steak and seafood. But she’d long been anxious about what happened to the leftovers (剩饭).
“They would just throw it out,” said Cohen, 40. “I was always told, ‘We can’t give away the food. … It’s too hard. If someone gets sick, we will have to take the responsibility.’”
For years, Cohen had a solution in mind about how to send the leftovers from sets to people in need, but her 16-hour workdays didn’t give her much opportunity to carry it out. She called Samantha Luu, a co-worker who was also deeply concerned about the problem, and together they got to work and started Every Day Action, a nonprofit (非盈利组织) that picks up extra food from film sets and other businesses and sends it to communities in need around Los Angeles.
At first, Cohen and Luu made most of the pickups themselves with the help of volunteers. But when they went back to work, that became unmanageable. As a result, they developed their Film Industry Driver Program. This program gives some money for work and gas to people like production helpers and background performers who help them.
While their services are free, Cohen and Luu strongly encourage sets to give away $50 for every pickup to help pay the drivers and cover the cost of gas. After working on this effort for nearly four years without pay, Cohen and Luu now do this work full-time.
Cohen isn’t sure if she is done with working in the film industry, for now her focus is on Every Day Action: connecting small parts — one set, one meal, one person at a time. Seeing the direct impact of their work on communities brings them great joy and a sense of achievement. And this matters a lot to them.
24. Why was the extra food on film sets usually thrown out according to Cohen?
A. Its taste was poor. B. It might bring trouble.
C. It was hard to keep fresh. D. Its materials were unhealthy.
25. What made Cohen fail to deal with leftover food earlier?
A. Her heavy work. B. Her strong fear.
C. The disagreement from her partner. D. The absence of expert suggestions.
26. What can be inferred about the Film Industry Driver Program?
A. It needs the government’s support. B. It creates job opportunities for locals.
C. It pays film workers for their help. D. It runs on the contributions of film sets.
27. What message does the text mainly show?
A. Much food from the film industry is often wasted.
B. Starting a nonprofit calls for lots of time and energy.
C. Volunteers are the most important part of any service.
D. One person’s concern can grow into an organized effort.
【答案】24. B 25. A 26. C 27. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述电影行业从业者希拉里·科恩,因担忧片场剩菜被浪费,联合同事创立非营利组织Every Day Action,将剩余食物捐赠给洛杉矶有需要的群体的故事,展现个人关注如何发展为有组织的公益行动。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的““I was always told, ‘We can’t give away the food. … It’s too hard. If someone gets sick, we will have to take the responsibility.’” (总有人告诉我:“我们不能把这些食物送出去……这事太难办了。要是有人吃了生病,我们就得承担责任”)”可知,片场剩余食物通常被丢弃,是因为担心捐赠后有人食用生病,会让片场惹上麻烦。故选B项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“For years, Cohen had a solution in mind about how to send the leftovers from sets to people in need, but her 16-hour workdays didn’t give her much opportunity to carry it out. (多年来,科恩心里一直有一个方案,想把片场的剩菜送给有需要的人,但每天16小时的高强度工作让她根本没有机会去实施)”可知,科恩没能早点处理剩菜问题,是因为工作过于繁重。故选A项。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中的“This program gives some money for work and gas to people like production helpers and background performers who help them. (该项目会给那些帮忙运食物的片场助理、群众演员等人员,支付一定的劳务费和油费)”可知,电影行业司机计划会为提供帮助的电影行业从业者支付报酬。故选C项。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。文章开篇讲述科恩个人对片场剩菜浪费问题的担忧,随后她联合同事创立公益组织,逐步建立相关项目,将个人的关注转化为系统化的公益行动。D项“一个人的关注可以发展成有组织的行动”精准概括全文主旨。故选D项。
C
Scientists have found an unusual “hybrid” (杂交) bird in Texas — a mix of a blue jay and a green jay.
Brian Stokes is studying for his Ph. D. at the University of Texas at Austin. His work focuses on green jays —birds common in Central America and Mexico. So when Brian saw a photo of an unusual-looking bird on social media, he got very interested in it.
It was blue and looked similar to a blue jay, a bird common in Eastern North America. But something wasn’t quite right. Instead of having white face coloring like a blue jay, this bird’s face is black. The bird is medium in size, not as big as a blue jay and not as small as a green jay.
Brian got in touch with the woman who had posted the picture, and she invited him to come and see the bird for himself. To study the bird more carefully, Brian brought a light net that he hoped would allow him to catch and keep the bird for some time. It took a lot of effort, but a few days later, he did succeed. Quickly, he got a few pictures, took a blood sample, and placed a tracker around the bird’s leg. Then he set it free, unharmed. Working with a biology professor at the university, Brian was sure that the bird was a hybrid. The father was a blue jay (common in Eastern North America) and the mother was a green jay (common in Central America).
Long, long ago, both kinds of jay s developed from the same kind of bird. But for seven million years!, they have been completely separate. So such a hybrid is very surprising. In the mid-1900s, the living areas of the two birds did not really overlap. But in recent years, as the temperatures have risen, green jays have been moving further north, and blue jays have been traveling further west.
Until now, the researchers haven’t given the hybrid a name yet, but they wonder if it should be called a “Grue Jay”.
28. How did Brian’s educational background help him in the discovery?
A. It helped him catch the bird quickly.
B. It taught him to turn to social media for help.
C. It made him able to realise the bird’s uncommonness.
D. It allowed him to use the university’s lab for blood tests.
29. What can be known about the hybrid?
A. It has a black face. B. It has a green body.
C. It is much larger than any other jay. D. It sings like two birds at the same time.
30. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about?
A. The steps Brian took to study the bird.
B. The way Brian made the woman believe him.
C. The reasons why Brian fixed a tracker on the bird.
D. The difficulty Brian had in finding the bird’s living area.
31. What does the underlined word “overlap” in paragraph 5 probably mean?
A. Disappear. B. Cross. C. Suffer. D. Remain.
【答案】28. C 29. A 30. A 31. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了科学家在得克萨斯州发现一种罕见的“杂交鸟”及其相关情况的介绍。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Brian Stokes is studying for his Ph. D. at the University of Texas at Austin. His work focuses on green jays —birds common in Central America and Mexico. So when Brian saw a photo of an unusual-looking bird on social media, he got very interested in it.(布莱恩·斯托克斯正在得克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校攻读博士学位。他的研究重点是绿松鸦——这种常见于中美洲和墨西哥的鸟类。所以当布莱恩在社交媒体上看到一张外形奇特的鸟的照片时,他对此产生了浓厚的兴趣)”可知,布莱恩的教育背景使他能够认识到这种鸟的罕见性。故选C。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Instead of having white face coloring like a blue jay, this bird’s face is black.(这只鸟的脸不是像蓝鸦那样呈白色,而是黑色的)”可知,杂交鸟有黑色的脸。故选A。
【30题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“Brian got in touch with the woman who had posted the picture, and she invited him to come and see the bird for himself. To study the bird more carefully, Brian brought a light net that he hoped would allow him to catch and keep the bird for some time. It took a lot of effort, but a few days later, he did succeed. Quickly, he got a few pictures, took a blood sample, and placed a tracker around the bird’s leg. Then he set it free, unharmed. Working with a biology professor at the university, Brian was sure that the bird was a hybrid. The father was a blue jay (common in Eastern North America) and the mother was a green jay (common in Central America).(布莱恩与发布这张照片的那位女士取得了联系,她邀请他亲自去看看那只鸟。为了更仔细地研究这只鸟,布莱恩带上了一个轻便的捕网,他希望这个网能让他捕获并暂时养住这只鸟。经过一番努力,几天后,他终于成功了。他迅速拍了几张照片,采集了血液样本,并在鸟的腿上安装了一个追踪器。然后他将它放飞,这只鸟安然无恙。与大学的一位生物学教授合作后,布莱恩确信这只鸟是杂交品种。父亲是蓝鸦(常见于北美东部),母亲是绿鸦(常见于中美洲))”可知,第4段主要讲了布莱恩研究这种鸟所采取的步骤。故选A。
【31题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线词上文“Long, long ago, both kinds of jay s developed from the same kind of bird. But for seven million years!, they have been completely separate. So such a hybrid is very surprising.(很久很久以前,这两种松鸦都是由同一种鸟类进化而来的。但历经了700万年之后,它们已经完全分道扬镳。所以这种杂交品种着实令人惊讶)”以及后文“But in recent years, as the temperatures have risen, green jays have been moving further north, and blue jays have been traveling further west.(但近年来,随着气温的升高,绿松鸦向北迁移的范围越来越广,而蓝松鸦向西迁移的范围也越来越大)”可知,上文提到20世纪中期两种鸟的栖息地完全分开,下文则说明近年气候变暖后,绿松鸦北迁、蓝松鸦西迁,进而产生了杂交鸟。由此可推断,overlap应指两种鸟的栖息地范围“交叉、重叠”,cross相近。故选B。
D
Drones (无人机) have been used in farming since the 1980s in some countries. The earliest drones used in farming were very small and could carry out only a few tasks. But improvements in drones have given rise to larger models which are able to carry heavier loads (装载). Recent models are even able to carry loads of up to 100 kg. This has made drones able to do a wide variety of tasks and be used on farms of different sizes.
The first farm drones were expensive for small farmers. Although this is still true for drone ownership, prices have fallen sharply because of rapid technological advances and competition. Moreover, the rental (租赁) service provided by small businesses and farmer groups has made it easy for farmers to use drones at prices similar to or lower than those paid to farm workers.
People have found new ways to do farm work. First in rich countries, people started using big machines like tractors to help plant and pick crops faster. This change started long ago and took over 100 years to reach Asia. Now, a new change is taking place with flying drones. It started in China less than ten years ago and is spreading quickly around the world. Two Chinese companies, DJI and XAG, produce most of the drones used in farming worldwide.
The drone revolution (变革) is completely changing historical patterns of farming technology spreading. In just 5 years, millions of farmers across Asia and beyond, many of whom are small holders, will be able to use this new technology. There are strong signs that drones can raise the efficiency and productivity of farming, improve worker safety, and better livelihoods in the countryside.
32. Why can modern drones be used for various farm tasks?
A. They are easier to control. B. They are able to fly a longer time.
C They can carry much heavier weights. D. They can work under more weather conditions.
33. What can we know about small farmers using drones now?
A. They prefer farm workers to drones. B. They can get drone services at a lower cost.
C. They can afford to buy their own drones. D. They need to learn more skills to run drones.
34. What is the author’s attitude towards the future of farm drones?
A. Hopeful. B. Worried. C. Uncaring. D. Unclear.
35. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. How Drones Are Changing Farming
B. The History of Drone Technology Development
C. The Advantages and Disadvantages of Farm Drones
D. How Chinese Drone Companies Lead the Global Market
【答案】32. C 33. B 34. A 35. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了农业无人机的发展历程及其从中国兴起并快速向全球传播的趋势,指出无人机革命正改变农业技术传播模式的现状。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的“But improvements in drones have given rise to larger models which are able to carry heavier loads (装载). Recent models are even able to carry loads of up to 100 kg. This has made drones able to do a wide variety of tasks and be used on farms of different sizes.(但无人机技术的进步使得无人机的尺寸变得更大,能够承载更重的负载。最近的型号甚至能够承载高达100千克的负载。这使得无人机能够执行各种各样的任务,并适用于不同规模的农场。)”可知,改进后的无人机体型更大、载重能力更强,最新型号甚至可承载100公斤,这一变化让无人机适用于各类农业任务及不同规模的农场。因此现代无人机可用于完成各种农业作业任务是因为它们能够承载更重的重量。故选C。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段的“Although this is still true for drone ownership, prices have fallen sharply because of rapid technological advances and competition. Moreover, the rental (租赁) service provided by small businesses and farmer groups has made it easy for farmers to use drones at prices similar to or lower than those paid to farm workers.(尽管无人机所有权仍然如此,但由于技术的快速进步和竞争,价格已经大幅下降。此外,小型企业和农民团体提供的租赁服务使农民很容易使用无人机,其价格与付给农场工人的价格相似或更低。)”可推断,小农如今能以较低成本获取无人机服务。故选B。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段的“In just 5 years, millions of farmers across Asia and beyond, many of whom are small holders, will be able to use this new technology. There are strong signs that drones can raise the efficiency and productivity of farming, improve worker safety, and better livelihoods in the countryside.(在短短五年内,亚洲及其他地区的数百万农民(其中许多是小规模农户)将能够使用这项新技术。有明显的迹象表明,无人机能够提高农业的效率和生产力,提升工人的安全水平,并改善农村地区的民生状况。)”可知,作者明确提到有充分迹象表明,无人机能提升农业效率和生产力、改善工人安全、优化农村生计,且指出未来五年亚洲及其他地区的数百万小农将能使用这项新技术,因此推断作者对农业无人机的未来满怀希望。故选A。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,特别是第一段内容“The earliest drones used in farming were very small and could carry out only a few tasks. But improvements in drones have given rise to larger models which are able to carry heavier loads (装载). Recent models are even able to carry loads of up to 100 kg. This has made drones able to do a wide variety of tasks and be used on farms of different sizes.(最初用于农业的无人机体积很小,只能执行少数任务。但无人机技术的改进使得无人机有了更大的型号,能够承载更重的负载。最近的型号甚至能够承载高达 100 千克的负载。这使得无人机能够执行各种各样的任务,并适用于不同规模的农场。)”可知,文章围绕农业无人机展开:第一段讲其功能改进,第二段讲小农使用门槛降低,第三段讲其从中国兴起并全球传播,第四段讲其对农业的积极影响及未来潜力。因此推断其核心是讲述“无人机如何改变农业”。故选A。

第二节(满分25分)
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。
The white wall in the doctor’s room was like a cold, wet cloth. It held the word “cancer” tight, and then struck me hard with it. I felt something break inside me. When I walked out of the hospital, the whole world looked gray to me. Even the sun on my skin felt sharp and cold.
I began locking myself in my room, drawing the curtains tight as if that could shut out the cancer. One day, when I found the scarf my mother had made for me, memories came flooding back. When I was a child, I broke my leg and cried in bed, saying, “I’ll never be able to run again.” My mother sat beside me, holding me in her arms. Her voice was soft yet firm: “Silly child, if you can’t run, we can walk slowly. When the sky turns gray, the sun will always come out again. To live, you must hold something joyful in your heart. Otherwise, life is not worth living.” Her words were like a seed (种子) buried in my heart, suddenly coming out at this moment. Right, I always said, “I’ll write when I’m less busy” or “I’ll pursue my dream when I retire”. But “later” never comes by waiting. Now, perhaps it was the perfect time to do the things I’d put aside for “lack of time”, like writing.
At first, when I sat at my desk, I couldn’t write a single word. My mind was a mess: fear of my illness, confusion about the future... I copied the usual writing patterns in some books. I forced myself to finish a short story and sent it to a literary magazine. I checked my email every day, only to receive a cold reply: “It does not meet the magazine’s style.”
After that, I experienced constant (不断的) failure. But every time I wanted to give up, I’d think of my mother knitting (织) that scarf. Her eyesight was poor, yet she kept knitting, never saying “I can’t finish it.”
注意:1. 写作词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I started focusing on my words instead of rushing for a result. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
One morning, an unexpected email appeared in my mailbox. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
I started focusing on my words instead of rushing for a result. I threw away the strict writing patterns I had copied from story magazines and started to write what I truly felt. I wrote down the small but warm things in my life: how the nurse softly patted my shoulder before my treatment, the sweet taste of the cake my mother brought each weekend, and even the warm light coming through the thick curtains and falling on my desk. I revised and revised, submitted and submitted. I lost count of how many sheets of paper I crumpled up and how many times I was rejected.
One morning, an unexpected email appeared in my mailbox. It was from a publishing house, saying they were deeply touched by my writing and that they wanted to publish my story. When I told my mother the news, she held my hand tight, her eyes glistening with tears. On the same day, the doctor said my condition was improving steadily. That day, I realized that life doesn’t always let us run and that as long as we keep walking slowly with hope in our hearts, the gray sky will eventually clear up. Those once painful days have become the most precious threads in my life, weaving a story of resilience and joy that I’ ll always hold close.

For 15 years, Hillary Cohen has been busy with behind-the-scenes work in the film industry. One of the benefits she enjoyed was the meals provided on the set — delicious, chef-prepared food like steak and seafood. But she’d long been anxious about what happened to the leftovers (剩饭).
“They would just throw it out,” said Cohen, 40. “I was always told, ‘We can’t give away the food. … It’s too hard. If someone gets sick, we will have to take the responsibility.’”
For years, Cohen had a solution in mind about how to send the leftovers from sets to people in need, but her 16-hour workdays didn’t give her much opportunity to carry it out. She called Samantha Luu, a co-worker who was also deeply concerned about the problem, and together they got to work and started Every Day Action, a nonprofit (非盈利组织) that picks up extra food from film sets and other businesses and sends it to communities in need around Los Angeles.
At first, Cohen and Luu made most of the pickups themselves with the help of volunteers. But when they went back to work, that became unmanageable. As a result, they developed their Film Industry Driver Program. This program gives some money for work and gas to people like production helpers and background performers who help them.
While their services are free, Cohen and Luu strongly encourage sets to give away $50 for every pickup to help pay the drivers and cover the cost of gas. After working on this effort for nearly four years without pay, Cohen and Luu now do this work full-time.
Cohen isn’t sure if she is done with working in the film industry, for now her focus is on Every Day Action: connecting small parts — one set, one meal, one person at a time. Seeing the direct impact of their work on communities brings them great joy and a sense of achievement. And this matters a lot to them.
24. Why was the extra food on film sets usually thrown out according to Cohen?
A. Its taste was poor. B. It might bring trouble.
C. It was hard to keep fresh. D. Its materials were unhealthy.
25. What made Cohen fail to deal with leftover food earlier?
A. Her heavy work. B. Her strong fear.
C. The disagreement from her partner. D. The absence of expert suggestions.
26. What can be inferred about the Film Industry Driver Program?
A. It needs the government’s support. B. It creates job opportunities for locals.
C. It pays film workers for their help. D. It runs on the contributions of film sets.
27. What message does the text mainly show?
A. Much food from the film industry is often wasted.
B. Starting a nonprofit calls for lots of time and energy.
C. Volunteers are the most important part of any service.
D. One person’s concern can grow into an organized effort.
C
Scientists have found an unusual “hybrid” (杂交) bird in Texas — a mix of a blue jay and a green jay.
Brian Stokes is studying for his Ph. D. at the University of Texas at Austin. His work focuses on green jays —birds common in Central America and Mexico. So when Brian saw a photo of an unusual-looking bird on social media, he got very interested in it.
It was blue and looked similar to a blue jay, a bird common in Eastern North America. But something wasn’t quite right. Instead of having white face coloring like a blue jay, this bird’s face is black. The bird is medium in size, not as big as a blue jay and not as small as a green jay.
Brian got in touch with the woman who had posted the picture, and she invited him to come and see the bird for himself. To study the bird more carefully, Brian brought a light net that he hoped would allow him to catch and keep the bird for some time. It took a lot of effort, but a few days later, he did succeed. Quickly, he got a few pictures, took a blood sample, and placed a tracker around the bird’s leg. Then he set it free, unharmed. Working with a biology professor at the university, Brian was sure that the bird was a hybrid. The father was a blue jay (common in Eastern North America) and the mother was a green jay (common in Central America).
Long, long ago, both kinds of jay s developed from the same kind of bird. But for seven million years!, they have been completely separate. So such a hybrid is very surprising. In the mid-1900s, the living areas of the two birds did not really overlap. But in recent years, as the temperatures have risen, green jays have been moving further north, and blue jays have been traveling further west.
Until now, the researchers haven’t given the hybrid a name yet, but they wonder if it should be called a “Grue Jay”.
28 How did Brian’s educational background help him in the discovery?
A. It helped him catch the bird quickly.
B. It taught him to turn to social media for help.
C. It made him able to realise the bird’s uncommonness.
D. It allowed him to use the university’s lab for blood tests.
29 What can be known about the hybrid?
A. It has a black face. B. It has a green body.
C. It is much larger than any other jay. D. It sings like two birds at the same time.
30. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about?
A. The steps Brian took to study the bird.
B. The way Brian made the woman believe him.
C. The reasons why Brian fixed a tracker on the bird.
D. The difficulty Brian had in finding the bird’s living area.
31. What does the underlined word “overlap” in paragraph 5 probably mean?
A. Disappear. B. Cross. C. Suffer. D. Remain.
D
Drones (无人机) have been used in farming since the 1980s in some countries. The earliest drones used in farming were very small and could carry out only a few tasks. But improvements in drones have given rise to larger models which are able to carry heavier loads (装载). Recent models are even able to carry loads of up to 100 kg. This has made drones able to do a wide variety of tasks and be used on farms of different sizes.
The first farm drones were expensive for small farmers. Although this is still true for drone ownership, prices have fallen sharply because of rapid technological advances and competition. Moreover, the rental (租赁) service provided by small businesses and farmer groups has made it easy for farmers to use drones at prices similar to or lower than those paid to farm workers.
People have found new ways to do farm work. First, in rich countries, people started using big machines like tractors to help plant and pick crops faster. This change started long ago and took over 100 years to reach Asia. Now, a new change is taking place with flying drones. It started in China less than ten years ago and is spreading quickly around the world. Two Chinese companies, DJI and XAG, produce most of the drones used in farming worldwide.
The drone revolution (变革) is completely changing historical patterns of farming technology spreading. In just 5 years, millions of farmers across Asia and beyond, many of whom are small holders, will be able to use this new technology. There are strong signs that drones can raise the efficiency and productivity of farming, improve worker safety, and better livelihoods in the countryside.
32. Why can modern drones be used for various farm tasks?
A. They are easier to control. B. They are able to fly a longer time.
C. They can carry much heavier weights. D. They can work under more weather conditions.
33. What can we know about small farmers using drones now?
A. They prefer farm workers to drones. B. They can get drone services at a lower cost.
C. They can afford to buy their own drones. D. They need to learn more skills to run drones.
34. What is the author’s attitude towards the future of farm drones?
A. Hopeful. B. Worried. C. Uncaring. D. Unclear.
35. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. How Drones Are Changing Farming
B The History of Drone Technology Development
C. The Advantages and Disadvantages of Farm Drones
D. How Chinese Drone Companies Lead the Global Market

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。
The white wall in the doctor’s room was like a cold, wet cloth. It held the word “cancer” tight, and then struck me hard with it. I felt something break inside me. When I walked out of the hospital, the whole world looked gray to me. Even the sun on my skin felt sharp and cold.
I began locking myself in my room, drawing the curtains tight as if that could shut out the cancer. One day, when I found the scarf my mother had made for me, memories came flooding back. When I was a child, I broke my leg and cried in bed, saying, “I’ll never be able to run again.” My mother sat beside me, holding me in her arms. Her voice was soft yet firm: “Silly child, if you can’t run, we can walk slowly. When the sky turns gray, the sun will always come out again. To live, you must hold something joyful in your heart. Otherwise, life is not worth living.” Her words were like a seed (种子) buried in my heart, suddenly coming out at this moment. Right, I always said, “I’ll write when I’m less busy” or “I’ll pursue my dream when I retire”. But “later” never comes by waiting. Now, perhaps it was the perfect time to do the things I’d put aside for “lack of time”, like writing.
At first, when I sat at my desk, I couldn’t write a single word. My mind was a mess: fear of my illness, confusion about the future... I copied the usual writing patterns in some books. I forced myself to finish a short story and sent it to a literary magazine. I checked my email every day, only to receive a cold reply: “It does not meet the magazine’s style.”
After that, I experienced constant (不断的) failure. But every time I wanted to give up, I’d think of my mother knitting (织) that scarf. Her eyesight was poor, yet she kept knitting, never saying “I can’t finish it.”
注意:1. 写作词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I started focusing on my words instead of rushing for a result. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
