Raise your hands, please. Wow, there are a lot of hands. Doctors recommend that teens get at least eight to ten hours of sleep each night. However, in practice, many teens struggle to make IT. This is often due to a conflict between nature and modern life. During our teenage years, our body clocks tend to move forward. This natural change makes us want to go to sleep and wake up much later. However, as society usually demands we get up early, the key is finding a way to fall asleep earlier. Later on in the lesson will be talking about how stress and screen addiction can also impact our sleep. But first we're going to study the ten, three, two, one sleep role. This means that ten hours before bed, you stop drinking tea, coffee and other energy drinks. Your last meal of the day should be at least three hours before bed. Homework and other work should be completed at least two hours before bed. One hour before bed, you shut off all screens. These tips will help ready your body for sleep and help you drop off to sleep much more quickly. Good morning, everyone. It's time for our weekly health class.

These case studies will deepen the understanding of the links between ICH and environmental sustainability, and inform future policies and practices in heritage protection and climate action. Focus of the Case Studies: Submitted case studies should address one or more of the following questions in detail: ● What roles does ICH play in identifying, assessing and monitoring climate change? ● What roles does ICH play in promoting communities’ adaptation and safeguarding against climate change? ● What roles does ICH play in reducing carbon emissions (排放) and disaster risk? ● What are the cultural, social and economic impacts and risks to ICH practice, transmission (传承) and safeguarding due to climate change? ● What changes to ICH are required for adaptation to climate change? ● What are local and regional strategies for safeguarding ICH in the context of climate change? The case studies should be grounded in evidence-based research and involve the widest possible participation of the community, groups or individuals. They should highlight the links between cultural diversity and environmental sustainability and offer locally-suited solutions for sustainable development. Submission Details: The case studies should be written in English and between 3,000 and 5,000 words in length. All submissions are to be sent to beijing.culture@unesco.org before April 15th, 2025.

When Lovelace was young, at her mother’s insistence, tutors taught her mathematics and science. Women of that time were seldom exposed to such intellectually demanding studies, but her mother believed engaging in these studies would prevent Lovelace from developing her father’s moody and unpredictable personality. Lovelace was also forced to lie still for extended periods of time because her mother believed it would help her develop self-control. Around the age of 17, Ada met Charles Babbage, a mathematician and inventor. They became friends, and the much older Babbage served as a mentor to Lovelace. Through Babbage, Lovelace began studying advanced mathematics with Professor Augustus de Morgan at the University of London. Known as “the father of the computer”, Babbage invented the analytical engine, an early design for a computer. Lovelace was later asked to translate an article on Babbage’s analytical engine. She not only translated the original French text into English but also added her own thoughts and ideas on the machine, which included an algorithm for calculating Bernoulli numbers — a sequence of rational numbers with applications in number theory and analysis. Her notes ended up being three times longer than the original article. Her work was published in 1843 in an English science journal. In her notes, Lovelace described how codes could be created for the device to handle letters and symbols along with numbers. She also theorized a method for the engine to repeat a series of instructions, a process that computer programs use today. Lovelace also put forward other forward-thinking ideas in the article. For her work, Lovelace is considered to be the first computer programmer. Lovelace died in 1852 and her contributions to the field of computer science weren’t discovered until the 1950s. Her notes were reintroduced to the world in 1953. Since then, Ada has received many honors for her work. In 1980, the US named a newly developed computer language “Ada”, after Lovelace. 24. What is paragraph 1 mainly about? A. Lovelace’s resistance to her strict mother. B. The unusual way Lovelace was brought up. C. Lovelace’s talent for mathematics and science. D. The relationship between Lovelace and her mother. 25. What can be inferred about Lovelace’s notes from paragraph 3? A. They were a simplified version for the public. B. They included ideas extending beyond the original article. C. They focused primarily on an algorithm for calculating Bernoulli numbers. D. They were considered a minor supplement by the contemporary scholars. 26. Why is Lovelace honored as the first computer programmer? A. Because she built Babbage’s analytical engine. B. Because she created the first working computer. C. Because she introduced key programming concepts. D. Because she made computer science a discipline. 27. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To explain the origins of the first computer language. B. To describe the challenges faced by women scientists in the 19th century. C. To compare the contributions of Ada Lovelace and Charles Babbage. D. To present the life and pioneering work of Ada Lovelace in computing. 【答案】24. B 25. B 26. C 27. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了计算机科学先驱艾达·洛夫莱斯的生平及其在计算领域的开创性贡献。 【24题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“When Lovelace was young, at her mother’s insistence, tutors taught her mathematics and science. Women of that time were seldom exposed to such intellectually demanding studies, but her mother believed engaging in these studies would prevent Lovelace from developing her father’s moody and unpredictable personality. Lovelace was also forced to lie still for extended periods of time because her mother believed it would help her develop self-control. (洛夫莱斯年轻时，在母亲的坚持下，家庭教师教她数学和科学。当时的女性很少接触到如此高难度的智力研究，但她的母亲认为参与这些研究可以防止洛夫莱斯养成她父亲喜怒无常、难以捉摸的性格。洛夫莱斯还被强迫长时间静止不动，因为她母亲认为这有助于她培养自控力)”可知，第一段主要讲述了洛夫莱斯不同寻常的成长方式。故选B项。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“She not only translated the original French text into English but also added her own thoughts and ideas on the machine, which included an algorithm for calculating Bernoulli numbers — a sequence of rational numbers with applications in number theory and analysis. Her notes ended up being three times longer than the original article. (她不仅将原文从法文翻译成英文，还添加了自己对这台机器的想法和见解，其中包括一个计算伯努利数的算法——伯努利数是一系列在数论和分析中有应用的有理数。她的笔记最终比原文长了三倍)”可知，洛夫莱斯的笔记包含了超出原文的想法。故选B项。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“In her notes, Lovelace described how codes could be created for the device to handle letters and symbols along with numbers. She also theorized a method for the engine to repeat a series of instructions, a process that computer programs use today. Lovelace also put forward other forward-thinking ideas in the article. For her work, Lovelace is considered to be the first computer programmer. (在她的笔记中，洛夫莱斯描述了如何为这台设备创建代码，以处理字母、符号和数字。她还提出了一种让引擎重复一系列指令的方法，这是计算机程序今天使用的过程。洛夫莱斯还在文章中提出了其他有远见的想法。由于她的工作，洛夫莱斯被认为是第一位计算机程序员)”可知，洛夫莱斯被认为是第一位计算机程序员是因为她引入了关键的编程概念。故选C项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据全文内容，尤其是最后一段“Lovelace died in 1852, and her contributions to the field of computer science weren’t discovered until the 1950s. Her notes were reintroduced to the world in 1953. Since then, Ada has received many honors for her work. In 1980, the US named a newly developed computer language “Ada”, after Lovelace. (洛夫莱斯于1852年去世，直到20世纪50年代，她在计算机科学领域的贡献才被发现。1953年，她的笔记再次被介绍给世界。从那时起，艾达因其工作获得了许多荣誉。1980年，美国以洛夫莱斯的名字命名了一种新开发的计算机语言“Ada”)”可知，本文主要介绍了计算机科学先驱艾达·洛夫莱斯的生平及其在计算领域的开创性贡献，主要目的是介绍Ada Lovelace在计算机领域的生活和开创性工作。故选D项。 C Doctor Dolittle, the well-known, fictional naturalist who famously possesses the ability to converse with animals and understand their languages has now inspired a high-paying science prize aimed at cracking the challenge of interspecies communication. A grand prize of $500,000, awaits whichever research team can make real progress: not just decoding the language of another species but using it to draw a reply from an animal. Last week, an initial $100,000 went to a US team studying dolphin whistles — after decades of recording bottlenose dolphins in Florida, they identified around 20 distinct messaging whistles. The Coller Dolittle Challenge financed by Jeremy Coller, a vegan and animal lover, is unashamedly modelled on the Turing test (图灵测试). That 20th-century test promotes efforts to design a machine capable of imitating human conversation, and became a touchstone in the evolution of AI. It also became a focus for concerns about machines tricking, even taking over, humans. The ability to commune with other species is likely to raise similar, unsettling questions as research progresses. If we were able to decode animal chatter, should this knowledge change how we treat them, whether as pets, labour or food? The prize presents a moral challenge and it forces us to reconsider our relationships with other species. Philosopher Jonathan Birch, also a judge of the Jeremy Coller Centre, stressed that the Challenge is looking beyond the interspecies communication we have with pets, or that a farmer has with a sheepdog. Those relationships involve signalling and behavioural responses, Birch explains, “but that’s not telling us how animals communicate with each other... this prize is about understanding it so well that we can start to join the conversation.” While Coller hopes his charity will reshape our attitude to animals, the truth is that even groundbreaking research has largely failed to move the dial on their welfare. Recent work on cephalopod’s (头足类动物) intelligence has not stopped plans to farm the creatures. We might one day be able to understand what animals are saying — but there is no guarantee we will listen. 28. Why is Turing test mentioned in the passage? A. To stress its role and value in AI progress. B. To show its difference from the Challenge. C. To warn of concerns the Challenge may face. D. To show its use in interspecies communication. 29. Which research would Birch approve of to win the prize? A. People communicating with their pets. B. People directing sheepdogs during work. C. Researchers recording how cattle communicate. D. Researchers interacting with birds using whistles. 30. What does the “move the dial” mean in the last paragraph? A. Make a change. B. Win the prize. C. Slow the process. D. Continue the research. 31. What’s the author’s attitude toward the practical effect of the research? A. Optimistic. B. Doubtful. C. Objective. D. Dismissive. 【答案】28. C 29. D 30. A 31. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍以杜立德医生为灵感设立的科勒·杜立德挑战奖，旨在推动跨物种交流研究，同时探讨该研究面临的道德问题与实际效果争议。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“The Coller Dolittle Challenge financed by Jeremy Coller, a vegan and animal lover, is unashamedly modelled on the Turing test (图灵测试). That 20th-century test promotes efforts to design a machine capable of imitating human conversation, and became a touchstone in the evolution of AI. It also became a focus for concerns about machines tricking, even taking over, humans. The ability to commune with other species is likely to raise similar, unsettling questions as research progresses. (由素食主义者兼动物爱好者杰里米·科勒资助的“科勒·杜立德挑战奖”，毫不避讳地以图灵测试为蓝本。这项诞生于20世纪的测试，推动了人们研发能够模仿人类对话的机器，成为人工智能发展史上的一块试金石。它同时也引发了人们的担忧——担心机器会欺骗甚至掌控人类。而随着研究的推进，与其他物种进行交流的能力，也可能引发类似的、令人不安的问题)”可知，提及图灵测试是为了指出该挑战奖可能面临与图灵测试类似的担忧。故选C项。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Philosopher Jonathan Birch, also a judge of the Jeremy Coller Centre, stressed that the Challenge is looking beyond the interspecies communication we have with pets, or that a farmer has with a sheepdog. Those relationships involve signalling and behavioural responses, Birch explains, “but that’s not telling us how animals communicate with each other... this prize is about understanding it so well that we can start to join the conversation.”(哲学家乔纳森·伯奇同时也是杰里米·科勒中心评委，他强调，该挑战关注的跨物种交流，远不止我们与宠物之间、或是农民与牧羊犬之间的那种交流。伯奇解释道：“那些关系涉及信号传递和行为反应，但这并不能让我们了解动物之间是如何交流的……这个奖项的目的，是要充分理解动物间的交流方式，从而让我们能够参与到这种交流之中。”)”可知，伯奇认可的获奖研究应是能让人类参与到动物交流中的研究，“研究人员用口哨与鸟类互动”符合“参与交流”的特点。故选D项。 【30题详解】 词句猜测题。根据最后一段中的“While Coller hopes his charity will reshape our attitude to animals, the truth is that even groundbreaking research has largely failed to move the dial on their welfare. Recent work on cephalopod’s intelligence has not stopped plans to farm the creatures.(虽然科勒希望他的慈善项目能改变我们对动物的态度，但事实是，即使是突破性的研究，在很大程度上也未能move the dial动物的福利状况。最近关于头足类动物智力的研究，也未能阻止养殖这类动物的计划)”可知，“头足类动物智力研究未能阻止其养殖计划”是对“未能move the dial on their welfare”的举例说明，由此可推测“move the dial”意为“产生改变、带来影响”。故选A项。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“While Coller hopes his charity will reshape our attitude to animals, the truth is that even groundbreaking research has largely failed to move the dial on their welfare. Recent work on cephalopod’s (头足类动物) intelligence has not stopped plans to farm the creatures. We might one day be able to understand what animals are saying — but there is no guarantee we will listen. (虽然科勒希望他的慈善项目能改变我们对动物的态度，但事实是，即便具有突破性的研究，在很大程度上也未能改变动物的福利状况。最近关于头足类动物智力的研究，并未阻止人们养殖这类动物的计划。也许有一天我们能理解动物在说什么——但无法保证我们会听从它们的声音)”可知，作者指出研究在改善动物福利方面效果有限，对研究的实际效果持怀疑态度。故选B项。 D A colorful colony of photosynthetic (光合的) cyanobacteria, known as blue-green algae (藻), has successfully powered a computer microprocessor for more than six months, according to a study published in the journal Energy & Environmental Science. The algae-computer system was placed in the window of biochemist Paolo Bombell’s home. What he saw next really blew his mind: It sat there from February to August, and all the while it was working. And even after the microprocessor has been disconnected, the cyanobacteria device continues to produce current. “Given the right conditions of light, temperature and water, I cannot predict when it will stop,” said Bombelli. Cyanobacteria harvest energy from sunlight and make it into food for themselves. For this study, the researchers put the power-providing microorganisms into a plastic and steel enclosure, about the size of an AA battery, along with an aluminum anode (铝正极). Throughout the experiment, the connected microprocessor was programmed to do a bunch of calculations, and then check its own work. It did this in a 45-minute period, followed by 15 minutes of standby, continuously for months with the cyanobacteria unit as its only power source. Even though the algae rely on a light source to feed, the bio-system continued to produce enough power to run the microprocessor in the dark. The scientists basically put down this phenomenon to leftovers. When there was light, the cyanobacteria cooked up an over-abundance of food, and when it was dark the microorganisms kept chewing on the extras. According to Chris Howe, senior author of the study, the results suggest that the little bio-based battery alternative could serve as a way to power small electronics without rare earth elements, which are in short supply and under growing demand. Plus, the system could also help bridge the electricity divide, providing another power supply for people in rural areas or low-income countries. Though the experiment’s results are promising, it’s important to keep in mind that the computer processor tested uses very little energy — requiring only 0.3 microwatts to run. More research is needed to know exactly how much the tiny AA-battery-sized device could scale up. Howe said, Putting one on your roof isn’t going to provide the power supply for your house at this stage.” 32. Which of the following facts about the algae-computer system surprised Bombelli? A. It can function without water. B. It can convert light into power. C. It can work for a long time. D. It can stand high temperatures. 33. What can we learn about the bio-system from paragraph 4? A. It stores light for later use. B. It works normally in the dark. C. It consumes little food in the dark. D. It produces food for people. 34. What will the research focus on next? A. How the device will work on the roof B. Whether the device’s size can be reduced. C Whether the device can play a bigger role. D. How the device will adapt to new environments. 35. What is the best title for the passage? A. The Future of Household Electricity Supply B. Blue-Green Algae: A New Source of Food C. An Algae-Powered Device Runs Computer for Months D. A Promising Bio-Battery Creates the Miracle 【答案】32. C 33. B 34. C 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一种由蓝绿藻驱动的计算机微处理器系统，该系统能长时间运行，展示了生物能源的潜力。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“What he saw next really blew his mind: It sat there from February to August, and all the while it was working.(接下来他所看到的让他大吃一惊：它从二月待到八月，而且一直在工作)”可知，让Bombelli感到惊讶的是藻类计算机系统能长时间工作。故选C项。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Even though the algae rely on a light source to feed, the bio-system continued to produce enough power to run the microprocessor in the dark.(尽管藻类依靠光源来获取食物，但生物系统在黑暗中仍能继续产生足够的电力来运行微处理器)”可知，生物系统在黑暗中能正常工作。故选B项。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Though the experiment’s results are promising, it’s important to keep in mind that the computer processor tested uses very little energy — requiring only 0.3 microwatts to run.

The deadline for the short story contest was in two days, and he had written nothing. Ideas like spaceships and magical forests swirled in his mind, feeling chaotic. Every time he tried to write, they slipped away. “Just write something,” his friend Mia had said. But for Leo, the real problem was pressure. Winning felt like a direct step toward his dream. He wanted the story to be perfect, and this desire paralyzed him. He looked out at the old oak tree in his backyard. There, in its branches, stood the tree house he built with his brother Sam years ago. A wave of nostalgia (怀旧) hit him. That simple structure had been a pirate ship, a castle, a secret base — the setting for countless adventures fueled by pure imagination. Then, softly, an idea formed. What if his story was about a memory? A real feeling from his own life? He opened his laptop again, pushed thoughts of judges aside, and began to type. In his story, he wrote: The tree house wasn’t much. But to Ben, it was a whole universe... Words began to flow. He wrote about the smell of wood, the echo of Sam’s laughter, the secret code on the trapdoor. He was no longer writing for the contest, but for himself — for the boy who believed a few planks (木板) could be anything. When his mother called him for dinner, Leo was surprised. Three pages filled the screen. They weren’t perfect, but they were real. For the first time in weeks, excitement replaced dread. He finally had a beginning! 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。 The next day, Leo found Mia at her usual spot in the library. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Two weeks later, the contest results were announced. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 The next day, Leo found Mia at her usual spot in the library. He handed her the printed pages. “I wrote something,” he said. Mia read it, her expression softening into a smile. “Leo, this has real feeling. It’s honest, and that makes it perfect in its own way.” Her words lifted the remaining pressure. Together, they revised the story. Mia suggested a stronger opening, and Leo added more about the tree house. The once chaotic ideas in his mind now had a clear direction. He understood now: his short story didn’t need a grand idea, just a true memory. Two weeks later, the contest results were announced. Leo scanned the list anxiously. Then he saw it: Third Place: Leo Bennett. He was surprised and overjoyed. While he didn’t win the top prize, he had found something more valuable: his own voice and confidence. That afternoon, he opened his laptop under the oak tree. The blank screen was no longer daunting; it was a space of possibility. He had a beginning. He started typing a new story, his fingers moving with surety. His writing dream was still on the horizon, but now, he knew he was walking firmly toward it. 【解析】 【导语】本文以创作故事为线索展开，讲述Leo因参赛压力无从下笔，受童年树屋回忆启发开始创作，写出了真实的故事开端。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“第二天，Leo在图书馆里她常待的位置找到了Mia。”可知，第一段可描写Leo把写好的故事给Mia看，Mia给出肯定和修改建议，Leo进一步完善故事，坚定了创作的信心。 ②由第二段首句内容“两周后，比赛结果公布了。”可知，第二段可描写Leo得知自己获奖，虽未得头奖却收获了更珍贵的东西，找到了自己的创作方向，继续踏上写作之路。 2. 续写线索：找Mia分享故事——获肯定并改故事——得知比赛获奖——收获创作信心 3. 词汇激活： 行为类 ①建议：suggest/propose/put forward ②修改：revise/amend ③扫描：scan/glance over 情绪类 ①惊喜：surprised/astonished/amazed ②焦虑：anxiously/nervously/uneasily ③欣喜若狂：overjoyed/ecstatic 【点睛】[高分句型1] Mia read it, her expression softening into a smile.

Which of the following is a focus of the case studies? A. ICH’s role in evaluating climate change. B. ICH’s economic value for communities. C. Global strategies to safeguard ICH. D. Carbon emissions’ effects on ICH. 23. The case studies to be submitted should ________. A cover all the listed questions B. maximize public participation C. be based on personal opinions D. be written in Chinese or English B Ada Lovelace, born on December 10th, 1815, was the daughter of the famous poet George Gordon Byron. When Lovelace was young, at her mother’s insistence, tutors taught her mathematics and science. Women of that time were seldom exposed to such intellectually demanding studies, but her mother believed engaging in these studies would prevent Lovelace from developing her father’s moody and unpredictable personality. Lovelace was also forced to lie still for extended periods of time because her mother believed it would help her develop self-control. Around the age of 17, Ada met Charles Babbage, a mathematician and inventor. They became friends, and the much older Babbage served as a mentor to Lovelace. Through Babbage, Lovelace began studying advanced mathematics with Professor Augustus de Morgan at the University of London. Known as “the father of the computer”, Babbage invented the analytical engine, an early design for a computer. Lovelace was later asked to translate an article on Babbage’s analytical engine. She not only translated the original French text into English but also added her own thoughts and ideas on the machine, which included an algorithm for calculating Bernoulli numbers — a sequence of rational numbers with applications in number theory and analysis. Her notes ended up being three times longer than the original article. Her work was published in 1843 in an English science journal. In her notes, Lovelace described how codes could be created for the device to handle letters and symbols along with numbers. She also theorized a method for the engine to repeat a series of instructions, a process that computer programs use today. Lovelace also put forward other forward-thinking ideas in the article. For her work, Lovelace is considered to be the first computer programmer. Lovelace died in 1852, and her contributions to the field of computer science weren’t discovered until the 1950s. Her notes were reintroduced to the world in 1953. Since then, Ada has received many honors for her work. In 1980, the US named a newly developed computer language “Ada”, after Lovelace. 24. What is paragraph 1 mainly about? A. Lovelace’s resistance to her strict mother. B. The unusual way Lovelace was brought up. C. Lovelace’s talent for mathematics and science. D. The relationship between Lovelace and her mother. 25 What can be inferred about Lovelace’s notes from paragraph 3? A. They were a simplified version for the public. B. They included ideas extending beyond the original article. C. They focused primarily on an algorithm for calculating Bernoulli numbers. D. They were considered a minor supplement by the contemporary scholars. 26. Why is Lovelace honored as the first computer programmer? A. Because she built Babbage’s analytical engine. B Because she created the first working computer. C. Because she introduced key programming concepts. D. Because she made computer science a discipline. 27. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To explain the origins of the first computer language. B. To describe the challenges faced by women scientists in the 19th century. C. To compare the contributions of Ada Lovelace and Charles Babbage. D. To present the life and pioneering work of Ada Lovelace in computing. C Doctor Dolittle, the well-known, fictional naturalist who famously possesses the ability to converse with animals and understand their languages has now inspired a high-paying science prize aimed at cracking the challenge of interspecies communication. A grand prize of $500,000, awaits whichever research team can make real progress: not just decoding the language of another species but using it to draw a reply from an animal. Last week, an initial $100,000 went to a US team studying dolphin whistles — after decades of recording bottlenose dolphins in Florida, they identified around 20 distinct messaging whistles. The Coller Dolittle Challenge financed by Jeremy Coller, a vegan and animal lover, is unashamedly modelled on the Turing test (图灵测试). That 20th-century test promotes efforts to design a machine capable of imitating human conversation, and became a touchstone in the evolution of AI. It also became a focus for concerns about machines tricking, even taking over, humans. The ability to commune with other species is likely to raise similar, unsettling questions as research progresses. If we were able to decode animal chatter, should this knowledge change how we treat them, whether as pets, labour or food? The prize presents a moral challenge and it forces us to reconsider our relationships with other species. Philosopher Jonathan Birch, also a judge of the Jeremy Coller Centre, stressed that the Challenge is looking beyond the interspecies communication we have with pets, or that a farmer has with a sheepdog. Those relationships involve signalling and behavioural responses, Birch explains, “but that’s not telling us how animals communicate with each other... this prize is about understanding it so well that we can start to join the conversation.” While Coller hopes his charity will reshape our attitude to animals, the truth is that even groundbreaking research has largely failed to move the dial on their welfare. Recent work on cephalopod’s (头足类动物) intelligence has not stopped plans to farm the creatures. We might one day be able to understand what animals are saying — but there is no guarantee we will listen. 28. Why is Turing test mentioned in the passage? A. To stress its role and value in AI progress. B. To show its difference from the Challenge. C. To warn of concerns the Challenge may face. D. To show its use in interspecies communication. 29. Which research would Birch approve of to win the prize? A. People communicating with their pets. B. People directing sheepdogs during work. C. Researchers recording how cattle communicate. D. Researchers interacting with birds using whistles. 30. What does the “move the dial” mean in the last paragraph? A. Make a change. B. Win the prize. C. Slow the process. D. Continue the research. 31. What’s the author’s attitude toward the practical effect of the research? A. Optimistic. B. Doubtful. C. Objective. D. Dismissive. D A colorful colony of photosynthetic (光合的) cyanobacteria, known as blue-green algae (藻), has successfully powered a computer microprocessor for more than six months, according to a study published in the journal Energy & Environmental Science. The algae-computer system was placed in the window of biochemist Paolo Bombell’s home. What he saw next really blew his mind: It sat there from February to August, and all the while it was working. And even after the microprocessor has been disconnected, the cyanobacteria device continues to produce current. “Given the right conditions of light, temperature and water, I cannot predict when it will stop,” said Bombelli. Cyanobacteria harvest energy from sunlight and make it into food for themselves. For this study, the researchers put the power-providing microorganisms into a plastic and steel enclosure, about the size of an AA battery, along with an aluminum anode (铝正极). Throughout the experiment, the connected microprocessor was programmed to do a bunch of calculations, and then check its own work. It did this in a 45-minute period, followed by 15 minutes of standby, continuously for months with the cyanobacteria unit as its only power source. Even though the algae rely on a light source to feed, the bio-system continued to produce enough power to run the microprocessor in the dark. The scientists basically put down this phenomenon to leftovers. When there was light, the cyanobacteria cooked up an over-abundance of food, and when it was dark the microorganisms kept chewing on the extras. According to Chris Howe, senior author of the study, the results suggest that the little bio-based battery alternative could serve as a way to power small electronics without rare earth elements, which are in short supply and under growing demand. Plus, the system could also help bridge the electricity divide, providing another power supply for people in rural areas or low-income countries. Though the experiment’s results are promising, it’s important to keep in mind that the computer processor tested uses very little energy — requiring only 0.3 microwatts to run. More research is needed to know exactly how much the tiny AA-battery-sized device could scale up. Howe said, Putting one on your roof isn’t going to provide the power supply for your house at this stage.” 32. Which of the following facts about the algae-computer system surprised Bombelli? A. It can function without water. B. It can convert light into power. C. It can work for a long time. D. It can stand high temperatures. 33. What can we learn about the bio-system from paragraph 4? A. It stores light for later use. B. It works normally in the dark. C. It consumes little food in the dark. D. It produces food for people. 34. What will the research focus on next? A. How the device will work on the roof B. Whether the device’s size can be reduced. C. Whether the device can play a bigger role. D. How the device will adapt to new environments. 35. What is the best title for the passage? A. The Future of Household Electricity Supply B. Blue-Green Algae: A New Source of Food C. An Algae-Powered Device Runs Computer for Months D A Promising Bio-Battery Creates the Miracle 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可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Should I go for a bar of snickers (士力架) or a piece of cheese cake?

The deadline for the short story contest was in two days, and he had written nothing. Ideas like spaceships and magical forests swirled in his mind, feeling chaotic. Every time he tried to write, they slipped away. “Just write something,” his friend Mia had said. But for Leo, the real problem was pressure. Winning felt like a direct step toward his dream. He wanted the story to be perfect, and this desire paralyzed him. He looked out at the old oak tree in his backyard. There, in its branches, stood the tree house he built with his brother Sam years ago. A wave of nostalgia (怀旧) hit him. That simple structure had been a pirate ship, a castle, a secret base — the setting for countless adventures fueled by pure imagination. Then, softly, an idea formed. What if his story was about a memory? A real feeling from his own life? He opened his laptop again, pushed thoughts of judges aside, and began to type. In his story, he wrote: The tree house wasn’t much. But to Ben, it was a whole universe... Words began to flow. He wrote about the smell of wood, the echo of Sam’s laughter, the secret code on the trapdoor. He was no longer writing for the contest, but for himself — for the boy who believed a few planks (木板) could be anything. When his mother called him for dinner, Leo was surprised. Three pages filled the screen. They weren’t perfect, but they were real. For the first time in weeks, excitement replaced dread. He finally had a beginning! 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。 The next day, Leo found Mia at her usual spot in the library. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Two weeks later, the contest results were announced. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
