Grammar and Vocabulary (20’) Section A（10’） Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank. Throughout the world, only 15% of the materials that are used to make clothing is properly recycled, according to the Alle SacArthur Club, an organization in Liverpool, UK, that boosts the circular economy. Most clothing waste—an 21 (estimate) 82 million tonnes from the fashion industry alone-produced every year ends up buried or burnt. 22 (handle) all that waste, methods to recover and reuse the material are intended as an active response to the future risks by researchers and start-up companies. Much of their focus is on chemical recycling, 23 the material is broken down into its building blocks and applied to create new materials, including fibres that 24 (weave) into new clothes. The challenges lie in 25 (develop) the processes for such treatment. They have to be practical, but they also have to be at least as cost-effective as simply making new fibres. 26 the natural cellulose fibres from cotton, some other materials include human-made cellulosic fibres. They are derived from wood-pulp cellulose and may be used to produce materials such as viscose (rayon) and a similar material called lyocell. A change in the manufacturing process is being applied to the textile-waste problem by Essen, a start-up in Seattle, Washington. 27 the company has fundamentally devoted to the process is that it uses discarded textiles, instead of wood, as the source of its cellulose. It has also adjusted the process to produce a fibre that the firm’s co-founder and president Christo Stan says is superior to 28 other cellulosics and cotton, and that can be recycled more times. Although there are abundant technical challenges, the main barrier 29 widespread textile recycling could be economic, says materials engineer Lijiang Jiang at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA. “Most of the materials are not that invaluable,” Jiang says. So cheap it is to produce polyester, cotton and other fabrics 30 there’s little profit margin unless the recycling processes themselves are very inexpensive. Section B（10’） Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need. A. signs B. significant C. supervised D. decline E. involved F. distinct G. justification H. mapped I. mounting J. hospitalized K. equivalent In a study comparing 46 severe COVID-19 patients with 460 matched controls, researchers found the mental impacts of severe COVID-19 six months later can be the ____31____ to aging 20 years—going from 50 to 70 years old—or losing 10 IQ points. “Cognitive impairment is common to a wide range of neurological disorders, including dementia (痴呆), and even routine aging, but the patterns we saw—the cognitive ‘fingerprint’ of COVID-19—was ____32____ from all of these, ” says neuroscientist David Menon from the University of Cambridge in the UK, who was senior author of the study. The experiment involved 46 people who’d gone to Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge as a result of COVID-19 between March and July 2020. An average of six months after their infection, researchers ____33____ them using a testing tool called Cognitron to see how they were doing in areas such as memory, attention, reasoning, as well as anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder. The researchers compared their results against a matched control group of 460 people. These results were then ____34____ to see how far they deviated from expected scores for their age and demographic (群体), based on 66, 008 members of the general public. The results showed that those who’d survived severe COVID were less accurate and had slower response times than the general public. The magnitude of cognitive loss was similar to the effects of aging between 50 and 70 years of age-or losing 10 IQ points. The somewhat good news is that, upon follow up, there were some ____35____ of recovery—but it was gradual at best. “We followed some patients up as late as ten months after their acute infection, so were able to see a very slow improvement, ” says Menon. “While this was not statistically ____36____, it is at least heading in the right direction, but it is very possible that some of these individuals will never fully recover.” This study only looked at the more extreme end of ____37____ patients, but there are plenty of other studies showing that even ‘mild’ cases can cause similar cognitive impacts. What’s still not fully understood is why and how the SARS-CoV-2 virus causes this cognitive ____38____. Previous research has shown that during severe COVID, the brain decreases glucose (葡萄糖) consumption in the frontoparietal network (额顶网络), which is ____39____ in attention, problem solving, and working memory. It’s also known that the virus can directly affect the brain. But the researchers suggest the likely culprit isn’t direct infection, but a combination of factors: including reduced oxygen or blood supply to the brain; clotting of vessels; and microscopic bleeds. There’s also ____40____ evidence that the body’s own immune and inflammatory response may be having a significant impact on the brain. The research has been published in eClinical Medicine. III.

However, with the proper support and resources, many people with Down syndrome are able to live fulfilling lives, participate in their communities, and achieve personal goals. Since Jack is a little smaller and slower than many of his peers, his parents, Devon and Kimberly, often worry that other kids might leave him out, fearing he could get hurt. But they do hope there are certain activities to keep Jack engaged. Devon suggested playing kickball, a sport he enjoyed growing up with his friends. The couple invited kids from the neighborhood, dividing them into two teams. And Jack’s only job was to kick the ball. This way, while the other kids were running, they didn’t have to worry about accidentally knocking Jack over, but he could still be involved in every play and every kick. Thus the kickball team, named the Inclusion FC, was established by the couple and a group of kids in the community to involve more kids like Jack and make them all feel included. They played and trained like professional players, often amusing that the Inclusion FC helped develop their talents and achieve their athletic dreams. After one game, Kimberly posted a video about the experience online, where it has gone viral with more than 1.5 million views and almost 3,000 comments. “Best Dad Ever! Inclusion Matters!” she titled the video. “The cool thing for us is that Jack now has relationships with all the kids in the neighborhood,” Devon continues. “With the Inclusion FC taking off, I thought, this is so amazing because it has got to be that glimpse of hope for those with Down syndrome, and every kid is a special gift.” As for Jack’s future, the parents hope that he continues to grow up in a world where he’s accepted and included. “There’s so many possibilities out there,” Kimberly says. 59．What does the author intend to imply about Jack in paragraph 1? A．He may be left out by his peers. B．He will get rid of Down syndrome. C．He can enjoy his life and himself with support. D．He might face challenges due to his personality. 60．Which of the following describes Jack’s parents best? A．Strict. B．Devoted. C．Innocent. D．Modest. 61．Why was the kickball team set up? A．To attract more sponsors. B．To welcome more kids to join in. C．To achieve kids’ professional dreams. D．To treat children’s disabilities in sports. 62．What does the couple stress when talking about their efforts? A．The importance of competition in sports. B．The need for constant practice to succeed. C．The significance of posting videos online. D．The value of celebrating kids’ unique ability. (C) People consistently underestimate how much others in their social circle might appreciate an unexpected phone call, text or email just to say hello, and the more surprising the connection, the greater the appreciation, according to a new study. In the study, researchers from the University of Pittsburgh conducted some experiments involving more than 5, 900 participants. In one experiment, half of the participants were asked to recall the last time they reached out to someone in their social circle after a prolonged (长期的) period of not interacting with them. The rest were asked to recall a similar situation where someone reached out to them. Participants were then asked to indicate on a 7-point scale how much either they or the person they reached out to appreciated. People who recalled reaching out thought the gesture was significantly less appreciated than those who recalled receiving a communication. In other experiments, participants sent a short note, or a small gift, to someone in their social circle with whom they had not interacted in a while. Similar to the previous experiment, participants who initiated (发起) contact were asked to rate on a 7-point scale the extent to which they thought the recipient would appreciate or feel grateful for the contact. After the notes or gifts were sent, researchers also asked the recipients to rate their appreciation. Across all experiments, those who initiated the communication significantly underestimated the extent to which recipients would appreciate the act of reaching out. Besides, the researchers found that people receiving the communication placed greater focus than those initiating the communication on the surprise element, and this heightened focus on surprise was associated with higher appreciation. “We also found that people underestimated others’ appreciation to a greater extent when the communication was more surprising, as opposed to part of a regular communication pattern, or the social ties between the two participants were weak,” added lead author Peggy Liu. Initiating social contact after a prolonged period of disconnection can be daunting because people worry about how such a gesture might be received. But these findings suggest that their hesitations may be unnecessary, as others are likely to appreciate being reached out to more than people think. 63．How did the researchers conduct the experiments? A．By listing arguments. B．By giving examples. C．By making assumptions. D．By making comparisons. 64．According to paragraph 3, what were the participants asked to do? A．To rank their appreciation. B．To make an unexpected call. C．To express their thoughts. D．To do the same experiments. 65．Based on the research, who would show higher appreciation? A．One receiving a gift of great value. B．One often contacted by a close friend. C．One connected quite unexpectedly. D．One making regular contacts with others. 66．What does the underlined word “daunting” in the last paragraph probably mean? A．Unbearable. B．Discouraging. C．Illogical. D．Immoral. Section C（8’） Directions: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. It is certainly difficult to make money. But should money be difficult to give away? In The Gilded Age, industrialists such as Andrew Carnegie and John D．Rockefeller worried about waste and misuse; Carnegie wrote in 1889 that $950 of every $1,000 that went to charity was “unwisely spent”. 67 Donors ran lengthy application processes, provided funds and fulfilled painstaking reporting requirements. In 2006 The Economist called it “philanthrocapitalism (慈善资本主义)”. 68 The 400 richest Americans have given away just 6% of their combined fortunes, according to Forbes. At the last count in 2022, almost $1.2 trn was sitting in American private foundations and $230bn in donor-advised funds, a sort of savings account for donors. Plenty of money is being marked for charity. But it is not getting to worthy causes fast enough. Fortunately, a new generation of donors is once again shaking up the world of big philanthropy (慈善事业). Leading the mission is MacKenzie Scott, who simplified the process of giving and is donating billions of dollars a year with few conditions. This “no-strings giving” is changing mega-donors’ long-held assumptions. 69 One is the recognition that philanthropists do not have to do everything themselves. 70 An upside of a decades-long trend for businesslike philanthropy is that armies of consultants have emerged to help donors draw up a strategy and conduct due diligence on potential recipients. Donors can team up and share the work, too. Another lesson from the no-strings crowd is that philanthropists can trust recipients to put money to good use once the proper due diligence is in place. That means analyzing a nonprofit organization’s annual reports and interviewing its leaders and other funders. A．It offers lessons for those struggling to get money out of the door. B．In addition to that, her charity work is too numerous to mention. C．However, this idea that charities’ money is wasted has been proven wrong by evidence. D．Mega-donors no longer need to endure the trouble of setting up a foundation and hiring staff. E．Two decades on, however, it’s become clear that all this paperwork puts the brakes on giving. F．Around the turn of the millennium donors looked to data and rules as a way to stop waste. V. Summary writing (10’) Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize in no more than 60 words the main idea of the passage and how it is illustrated. Use your own words as far as possible. The Evolution of Robotics: A Journey from Imagination to Reality The development of robots represents a fascinating journey from mere imagination to practical reality. Over the years, advancements in technology and engineering have pushed the evolution of robots, transforming them from simple mechanical devices to complicated machines capable of copying human behavior and performing complex tasks. The history of robotics dates back centuries, with early concepts of mechanical beings found in ancient stories and legends. However, it was not until the 20th century that significant progress was made in the field of robotics. The appearance of industrial robots in the mid-20th century revolutionized manufacturing processes, leading to increased efficiency and productivity in factories around the world. One of the most significant milestones in the development of robots was the invention of the programmable robot arm by George Devol and Joseph Engelberger in the 1950s. This innovation paved the way for the widespread adoption of robots in industrial settings, where they could perform repetitive tasks with correctness and accuracy. Another milestone was the introduction of the first autonomous mobile robot, Shakey, developed by researchers at Stanford Research Institute in the 1960s. Shakey demonstrated the potential of robots to navigate and interact with their environment autonomously, laying the foundation for future advancements in robotics. The development of artificial intelligence (AI) has been instrumental in pushing the boundaries of robotics. AI-powered robots are capable of learning from their experiences, making decisions, and adapting to new situations. This has enabled the creation of social robots, such as Pepper and Sophia, which can interact with humans in meaningful ways. In recent years, there have been significant advancements in robotics, particularly in areas such as medical robotics, autonomous vehicles, and humanoid robots. Medical robots, for example, are being used for minimally invasive surgeries, precision medication delivery, and patient care. Autonomous vehicles are revolutionizing transportation, with companies like Tesla and Waymo developing self-driving cars. Meanwhile, humanoid robots like Boston Dynamics' Atlas are pushing the boundaries of what robots can achieve, with capabilities such as dynamic movement and dexterity. 71.______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ VI.

D 【解析】 【原文】 A recent “friendly reminder posted at the Cainiao Station express service delivery center of Sichuan University has sparked controversy. The notice stated that to prevent packages loss, individuals who leave the station without properly checking out their parcels would be fined between 30 and 100 yuan. Additionally, it offered a 20-yuan reward to those who report such incidents. One student recalled an incident last week when he hurriedly picked up three packages during a class break. Due to long queues, he left the station without completing the checkout process. However, he was stopped by staff, who demanded a fine. “They said if I didn’t pay, I would be blacklisted and all future packages would be refused,” he explained. Under pressure, he transferred 100 yuan via WeChat but did not receive any receipt. Many students clarified that they do not intentionally avoid scanning the codes. Instead, system malfunctions or network delays sometimes cause the problem. During peak hours, waiting times at the station can exceed 20 minutes, and staff often urge students to “grab and go quickly”, which increases the likelihood of missing the checkout step. Staff from the university’s logistics support department confirmed the incident and said, “We immediately required the relevant personnel of Cainiao Station to remove the notice and the problem has been resolved.” Cainiao Station’s official response clarified that the platform did not authorize such fines, confirming it was an independent action by the site. Questions: 11. What was the primary purpose of the notice posted at the Cainiao Station? 12. Why did one student end up paying a fine at the Cainiao Station? 13. What was the final outcome of this incident as confirmed by the university? 听下面一段独白，回答以下小题。 14. A. To explore the unknown waters beyond Europe. B. To find gold for the royal family. C.

Merchants used to be charged high fees by middlemen traders B. Prince Henry blocked Portuguese merchants along overland routes C. Dias and da Gama were the pioneers to reach the Cape of Good Hope D. The overseas trade route from Europe to India benefited Portugal a lot 【答案】14. B 15. C 16. D 【解析】 【原文】 One man largely responsible for Portugal’s interest in exploration was Prince Henry. Also known as “The Navigator”, Prince Henry’s primary goal was to find gold for Portugal. The Portuguese also hoped to find a way to the rich spice trade of the Indies and to spread the Christian faith. Henry gathered many Europe’s best geographers and navigators to plan expeditions. By about 1420, his navigators were exploring westward into the Atlantic, and by the 1430s, they were moving southward along the west coast of Africa. The success of these early voyages of discovery and exploration created great excitement throughout Europe. Success encouraged more voyages. In 1488, Bartolomeu Dias sailed around the Cape of Good Hope at the southern tip of Africa. Although Dias had to turn back, he had found the route to the Indian Ocean. Using this knowledge, Vasco da Gama sailed eastward across the Indian Ocean. He landed in India in 1498. Several years later, da Gama made a second voyage to India. He returned to Portugal, and his ships full of valuable goods. Thanks to Dias and da Gama, an overseas trade route from Europe to India and the East Indies was now available. Rich cargoes of spices and jewels arrived in Portugal. This direct ocean route saved the Portuguese from having to deal with middlemen traders. Now, the Portuguese could journey directly to the sources of the trade goods they sought. In many cases, ships could carry goods more cheaply than could overland caravans. Nor could Portuguese merchants be blocked or charged high fees by competing powers that controlled overland routes. Questions: 14. What was the main purpose of Henry’s voyage? 15. Who was the first to find the route to the Indian Ocean? 16. What can we learn from the passage? 听下面一段对话，回答以下小题。 17. A. He is stressed about a major upcoming project deadline. B.

By avoiding tasks that require too much analysis. 【答案】17. C 18. D 19. B 20. B 【解析】 【原文】W: Hey, Mark. You look stressed. What’s going on? M: Hi, Anna. I have a bunch of small tasks piling up, like replying to emails and organizing my desk. I keep putting them off, and now I feel completely drained and unmotivated for my bigger project. W: That sounds familiar. You know our self-control is like an energy reserve. When it’s low, we’re more likely to procrastinate on non-urgent things, just like you’re describing. M: Exactly! But for me, it’s also about perfectionism. I want to craft the “perfect” email, so I delay even starting. It’s a terrible cycle. W: I understand. That pursuit of perfection can be paralyzing. Staying in that state can make you doubt your abilities and kill your motivation for other important work. M: That’s exactly what I’m afraid of! So, how do I break out of it? W: Well, my suggestion is to set one or two tiny, concrete goals each day — things you can finish in just a few minutes. Completing them gives you a “small win”. M: So, instead of “organizing my entire desk,” I could just “clear one drawer”? That does sound less frustrating. W: Precisely! These small tasks are easy to check off. Doing them promptly lightens your mental load. M: That makes sense. But what about the overthinking? I often get stuck analyzing when or how to start. W: I have a tip for that, too. Create simple plans or rules in advance. For example, “I will check and reply to emails every day at 10 a.m. for 15 minutes.” Then, you just follow the habit without over-analyzing. M: So it’s about making the process almost automatic right? That could really help me stop the mental debates before I even start. W: Exactly. By relying on pre-set habits instead of waiting for motivation, you conserve your self-control energy for more complex tasks. M: Thanks, Anna. I’ll start by making a list of my “tiny goals” for tomorrow. Questions: 17. What is Mark’s main problem at the beginning of the conversation? 18. According to the dialogue, what is one reason Mark procrastinates? 19. What solution does Anna suggest for breaking the cycle of procrastination? 20. How does Anna suggest dealing with overthinking?

Throughout the world, only 15% of the materials that are used to make clothing is properly recycled, according to the Alle SacArthur Club, an organization in Liverpool, UK, that boosts the circular economy. Most clothing waste—an 21 (estimate) 82 million tonnes from the fashion industry alone-produced every year ends up buried or burnt. 22 (handle) all that waste, methods to recover and reuse the material are intended as an active response to the future risks by researchers and start-up companies. Much of their focus is on chemical recycling, 23 the material is broken down into its building blocks and applied to create new materials, including fibres that 24 (weave) into new clothes. The challenges lie in 25 (develop) the processes for such treatment. They have to be practical, but they also have to be at least as cost-effective as simply making new fibres. 26 the natural cellulose fibres from cotton, some other materials include human-made cellulosic fibres. They are derived from wood-pulp cellulose and may be used to produce materials such as viscose (rayon) and a similar material called lyocell. A change in the manufacturing process is being applied to the textile-waste problem by Essen, a start-up in Seattle, Washington. 27 the company has fundamentally devoted to the process is that it uses discarded textiles, instead of wood, as the source of its cellulose. It has also adjusted the process to produce a fibre that the firm’s co-founder and president Christo Stan says is superior to 28 other cellulosics and cotton, and that can be recycled more times. Although there are abundant technical challenges, the main barrier 29 widespread textile recycling could be economic, says materials engineer Lijiang Jiang at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA. “Most of the materials are not that invaluable,” Jiang says. So cheap it is to produce polyester, cotton and other fabrics 30 there’s little profit margin unless the recycling processes themselves are very inexpensive. 【答案】21．estimated 22．To handle 23．where 24．are woven 25．developing 26．Besides 27．What 28．both 29．to 30．that 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了服装原料的浪费已经成为一个严重的问题，华盛顿西雅图的艾森公司通过对于纺织生产过程的改变来解决纺织品废料的问题。 21．考查形容词。句意：大多数衣服浪费——估计有8,200万吨时尚行业每年生产的产品最终被埋葬或烧毁。空格处应填形容词修饰名词tonnes，作定语。故填estimated。 22．考查非谓语动词。句意：为了处理所有的废物，回收和再利用材料的方法旨在作为研究人员和初创公司对未来风险的积极回应。分析句子结构，are intended为谓语动词，空格处需填非谓语动词作目的状语，需填动词不定式形式。故填To handle。 23．考查定语从句。句意：他们主要关注化学物质的回收，在回收中材料被分解成它的基础材料并应用于创造新的材料，包括被织进新衣服里的纤维。此处为定语从句修饰先行词chemical recycling，先行词在从句中作地点状语，故填where。 24．考查被动语态。句意：他们主要关注化学物质的回收，在回收中材料被分解成它的基础材料并应用于创造新的材料，包括被织进新衣服里的纤维。that指代先行词fibers在从句中作主语，空格处在从句中作谓语，主语fibres和weave之间是被动关系，此句陈述的是客观事实，应用一般现在时的被动语态。故填are woven。 25．考查非谓语动词。句意：挑战基于对这种加工过程的开发。空格处需要填非谓语作介词in的宾语，应用动名词形式。故填developing。 26．考查介词。句意：除了来自棉花的天然纤维素纤维外，一些纺织品还包括人造纤维素纤维。根据“the natural cellulose fibres from cotton, some other materials include human-made cellulosic fibres.”及常识可知，除了来自棉花的天然纤维素纤维外，一些纺织品还包括人造纤维素纤维，介词besides除……之外（还），故填Besides。 27．考查主语从句。句意：公司从根本上致力于的工艺是使废弃的纺织品而不是木材作为纤维素的来源。分析句子结构，空格处引导主语从句，在从句中作动词devoted的宾语，指代事物。故填What。 28．考查代词。句意：该公司还调整了生产纤维的过程，可以生产出优于其他纤维素和棉花的纤维，而且这种纤维可以更多地被回收利用。根据“other cellulosics and cotton”可知，此处用both...and...表示“两者都”，故填both。 29．考查介词。句意：尽管有大量的技术挑战，对于广泛传播纤维回收的主要障碍就是经济，亚特兰大麻省理工学院的材料工程师蒋丽江（音译）如是说。barrier to是固定搭配，意为“……的障碍”。故填to。 30．考查结果状语从句。句意：生产涤纶棉花和其他材料是如此的便宜，并且除非回收过程本身非常便宜否则利润空间很小。根据句意，此处与前面的So构成so...that，引导结果状语从句。故填that。 Section B（10’） Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box.

A. signs B. significant C. supervised D. decline E. involved F. distinct G. justification H. mapped I. mounting J. hospitalized K. equivalent In a study comparing 46 severe COVID-19 patients with 460 matched controls, researchers found the mental impacts of severe COVID-19 six months later can be the ____31____ to aging 20 years—going from 50 to 70 years old—or losing 10 IQ points. “Cognitive impairment is common to a wide range of neurological disorders, including dementia (痴呆), and even routine aging, but the patterns we saw—the cognitive ‘fingerprint’ of COVID-19—was ____32____ from all of these, ” says neuroscientist David Menon from the University of Cambridge in the UK, who was senior author of the study. The experiment involved 46 people who’d gone to Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge as a result of COVID-19 between March and July 2020. An average of six months after their infection, researchers ____33____ them using a testing tool called Cognitron to see how they were doing in areas such as memory, attention, reasoning, as well as anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder. The researchers compared their results against a matched control group of 460 people. These results were then ____34____ to see how far they deviated from expected scores for their age and demographic (群体), based on 66, 008 members of the general public. The results showed that those who’d survived severe COVID were less accurate and had slower response times than the general public. The magnitude of cognitive loss was similar to the effects of aging between 50 and 70 years of age-or losing 10 IQ points. The somewhat good news is that, upon follow up, there were some ____35____ of recovery—but it was gradual at best. “We followed some patients up as late as ten months after their acute infection, so were able to see a very slow improvement, ” says Menon. “While this was not statistically ____36____, it is at least heading in the right direction, but it is very possible that some of these individuals will never fully recover.” This study only looked at the more extreme end of ____37____ patients, but there are plenty of other studies showing that even ‘mild’ cases can cause similar cognitive impacts. What’s still not fully understood is why and how the SARS-CoV-2 virus causes this cognitive ____38____. Previous research has shown that during severe COVID, the brain decreases glucose (葡萄糖) consumption in the frontoparietal network (额顶网络), which is ____39____ in attention, problem solving, and working memory. It’s also known that the virus can directly affect the brain. But the researchers suggest the likely culprit isn’t direct infection, but a combination of factors: including reduced oxygen or blood supply to the brain; clotting of vessels; and microscopic bleeds. There’s also ____40____ evidence that the body’s own immune and inflammatory response may be having a significant impact on the brain. The research has been published in eClinical Medicine. 【答案】31.

However, with the proper support and resources, many people with Down syndrome are able to live fulfilling lives, participate in their communities, and achieve personal goals. Since Jack is a little smaller and slower than many of his peers, his parents, Devon and Kimberly, often worry that other kids might leave him out, fearing he could get hurt. But they do hope there are certain activities to keep Jack engaged. Devon suggested playing kickball, a sport he enjoyed growing up with his friends. The couple invited kids from the neighborhood, dividing them into two teams. And Jack’s only job was to kick the ball. This way, while the other kids were running, they didn’t have to worry about accidentally knocking Jack over, but he could still be involved in every play and every kick. Thus the kickball team, named the Inclusion FC, was established by the couple and a group of kids in the community to involve more kids like Jack and make them all feel included. They played and trained like professional players, often amusing that the Inclusion FC helped develop their talents and achieve their athletic dreams. After one game, Kimberly posted a video about the experience online, where it has gone viral with more than 1.5 million views and almost 3,000 comments. “Best Dad Ever! Inclusion Matters!” she titled the video. “The cool thing for us is that Jack now has relationships with all the kids in the neighborhood,” Devon continues. “With the Inclusion FC taking off, I thought, this is so amazing because it has got to be that glimpse of hope for those with Down syndrome, and every kid is a special gift.” As for Jack’s future, the parents hope that he continues to grow up in a world where he’s accepted and included. “There’s so many possibilities out there,” Kimberly says. 59．What does the author intend to imply about Jack in paragraph 1?

In the study, researchers from the University of Pittsburgh conducted some experiments involving more than 5, 900 participants. In one experiment, half of the participants were asked to recall the last time they reached out to someone in their social circle after a prolonged (长期的) period of not interacting with them. The rest were asked to recall a similar situation where someone reached out to them. Participants were then asked to indicate on a 7-point scale how much either they or the person they reached out to appreciated. People who recalled reaching out thought the gesture was significantly less appreciated than those who recalled receiving a communication. In other experiments, participants sent a short note, or a small gift, to someone in their social circle with whom they had not interacted in a while. Similar to the previous experiment, participants who initiated (发起) contact were asked to rate on a 7-point scale the extent to which they thought the recipient would appreciate or feel grateful for the contact. After the notes or gifts were sent, researchers also asked the recipients to rate their appreciation. Across all experiments, those who initiated the communication significantly underestimated the extent to which recipients would appreciate the act of reaching out. Besides, the researchers found that people receiving the communication placed greater focus than those initiating the communication on the surprise element, and this heightened focus on surprise was associated with higher appreciation. “We also found that people underestimated others’ appreciation to a greater extent when the communication was more surprising, as opposed to part of a regular communication pattern, or the social ties between the two participants were weak,” added lead author Peggy Liu. Initiating social contact after a prolonged period of disconnection can be daunting because people worry about how such a gesture might be received. But these findings suggest that their hesitations may be unnecessary, as others are likely to appreciate being reached out to more than people think. 63．How did the researchers conduct the experiments? A．By listing arguments. B．By giving examples. C．By making assumptions. D．By making comparisons. 64．According to paragraph 3, what were the participants asked to do? A．To rank their appreciation. B．To make an unexpected call. C．To express their thoughts. D．To do the same experiments. 65．Based on the research, who would show higher appreciation? A．One receiving a gift of great value. B．One often contacted by a close friend. C．One connected quite unexpectedly. D．One making regular contacts with others. 66．What does the underlined word “daunting” in the last paragraph probably mean? A．Unbearable. B．Discouraging. C．Illogical. D．Immoral. 【答案】63．C 64．D 65．A 66．B 【导语】本文是应用文。文章介绍了查尔斯顿地区的几家酒店及其提供的节日套餐和特色活动，旨在吸引游客在节假日期间入住这些酒店，享受独特的庆祝体验。 63．细节理解题。根据小标题The Spectator Hotel下的“Enjoy a holiday cocktail carefully made by our award-winning mixologist (调酒师), a nightly $10 credit (积分) to The Bar, and a his & hers set from Brackish—one Gatsby bow tie and one pair of Delores Stud Earrings.(品尝由我们屡获殊荣的调酒师精心调制的节日鸡尾酒，每晚享有10美元的酒吧积分，以及来自Brackish的他与她套装——一款盖茨比领结和一对Delores耳钉)”以及小标题Wild Dunes Resort下的“Make your Charleston holiday memorable with our exclusive offer (独家优惠), a fantastic getaway to Charleston’s island resort and receive the following inclusions: accommodations for two nights, two seasonal welcome cocktails at Coastal Provisions, Oyster Catcher, or Sippin’ Santa (only available in December), and $50 resort credit.(凭借我们的独家优惠，让您的查尔斯顿假期变得难忘，这是一次前往查尔斯顿海岛度假村的美妙之旅，并包括以下内容：两晚住宿、在Coastal Provisions、Oyster Catcher或Sippin’ Santa（仅限12月）享用两杯季节性欢迎鸡尾酒，以及50美元的度假村积分)”可知，在The Spectator Hotel和Wild Dunes Resort都提供鸡尾酒。故选C项。 64．细节理解题。根据小标题The Tides at Folly Beach下的“Sip and enjoy the delights of the holidays with two insulated tumblers (水杯) perfect for enjoying steaming hot chocolate on cold nights.(用两个隔热杯啜饮，尽情享受节日的乐趣，这非常适合在寒冷的夜晚享用热气腾腾的热巧克力)”可知，游客可以在The Tides at Folly Beach品尝热气腾腾的巧克力。故选D项。 65．细节理解题。根据小标题The Tides at Folly Beach — Light Up the Holidays下的“Embrace the spirit of the season as you experience the charming Holiday Festival of Lights at James Island County Park, a beloved annual tradition.(在詹姆斯岛县公园迷人的“灯光假期狂欢节”中感受节日的气氛，这是一项备受喜爱的年度传统)”可知，the Holiday Festival of Lights是每年举办一次。故选A项。 66．推理判断题。根据第一段“No matter what your holiday wish is, you’ll find a home here in the Charleston area.(无论您的节日愿望是什么，您都能在查尔斯顿地区找到归宿)”以及纵观全文可知，本文主要介绍了查尔斯顿地区的几家酒店及其提供的节日套餐和特色活动，所以本文是可能取自旅游指南。故选B项。 Section C（8’） Directions: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. It is certainly difficult to make money. But should money be difficult to give away? In The Gilded Age, industrialists such as Andrew Carnegie and John D．Rockefeller worried about waste and misuse; Carnegie wrote in 1889 that $950 of every $1,000 that went to charity was “unwisely spent”. 67 Donors ran lengthy application processes, provided funds and fulfilled painstaking reporting requirements. In 2006 The Economist called it “philanthrocapitalism (慈善资本主义)”. 68 The 400 richest Americans have given away just 6% of their combined fortunes, according to Forbes. At the last count in 2022, almost $1.2 trn was sitting in American private foundations and $230bn in donor-advised funds, a sort of savings account for donors. Plenty of money is being marked for charity. But it is not getting to worthy causes fast enough. Fortunately, a new generation of donors is once again shaking up the world of big philanthropy (慈善事业). Leading the mission is MacKenzie Scott, who simplified the process of giving and is donating billions of dollars a year with few conditions. This “no-strings giving” is changing mega-donors’ long-held assumptions. 69 One is the recognition that philanthropists do not have to do everything themselves. 70 An upside of a decades-long trend for businesslike philanthropy is that armies of consultants have emerged to help donors draw up a strategy and conduct due diligence on potential recipients. Donors can team up and share the work, too. Another lesson from the no-strings crowd is that philanthropists can trust recipients to put money to good use once the proper due diligence is in place. That means analyzing a nonprofit organization’s annual reports and interviewing its leaders and other funders. A．It offers lessons for those struggling to get money out of the door. B．In addition to that, her charity work is too numerous to mention. C．However, this idea that charities’ money is wasted has been proven wrong by evidence. D．Mega-donors no longer need to endure the trouble of setting up a foundation and hiring staff. E．Two decades on, however, it’s become clear that all this paperwork puts the brakes on giving. F．Around the turn of the millennium donors looked to data and rules as a way to stop waste. 【答案】67．F 68．E 69．A 70．D 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了慈善资本主义的弊端，以及新的一代的慈善家是如何进行慈善事业的。 67．根据上文“In The Gilded Age, industrialists such as Andrew Carnegie and John D. Rockefeller worried about waste and misuse; Carnegie wrote in 1889 that $910 of every $1,000 that went to charity was “unwisely spent”.”（在镀金时代，安德鲁·卡内基(Andrew Carnegie)和约翰·D·洛克菲勒(John D. Rockefeller)等实业家担心浪费和滥用；卡内基在1889年写道，捐赠给慈善机构的每1000美元中，有910美元“花得不明智”。）提到担心浪费和滥用捐赠的钱。以及下文“Donors ran lengthy application processes, provided funds and fulfilled painstaking reporting requirements.”（捐助者进行了漫长的申请程序，提供资金并完成了繁琐的报告要求。）提到提供资金并完成繁琐的报告要求。结合选项F项Around the turn of the millennium donors looked to data and rules as a way to stop waste.（在千禧年前后，捐赠者希望通过数据和规则来阻止浪费。）可知，起到上下文的承上启下作用，上下文语意连贯。故选F项。 68．根据下文“The 400 richest Americans have given away just 2% of their combined fortunes, according to Forbes.”（根据福布斯的数据，美国最富有的400人只捐出了他们财富总额的2%。）提到最富有的400人只捐出了他们财富总额的2%。结合选项E项Two decades on, however, it’s become clear that all this paperwork puts the brakes on giving.（然而，二十年过去了，很明显，所有这些文书工作都阻碍了捐赠。）可知，和下文内容紧密连接，下文是对空格处内容的具体说明，符合语境。故选E项。 69．根据上文“This “no-strings giving” is changing mega-donors’ long-held assumptions.”（这种“无条件捐赠”正在改变巨额捐赠者长期以来的假设。）提到无条件捐赠这个概念。结合选项A项It offers lessons for those struggling to get money out of the door.（它为那些挣扎着把钱带出家门的人提供了教训。）可知，承接上文内容，为对上文内容的语意递进，上下文紧密连接。故选A项。 70．根据上文“One is the recognition that philanthropists do not have to do everything themselves.”（其一是认识到慈善家不必事事亲力亲为。）提到慈善家不必事事亲力亲为。以及下文“An upside of a decades-long trend for businesslike philanthropy is that armies of consultants have emerged to help donors draw up a strategy and conduct due diligence on potential recipients.”（商业慈善事业几十年来的趋势的一个好处是，顾问大军已经出现，帮助捐赠者制定战略，并对潜在的接受者进行尽职调查。）结合选项D项Mega-donors no longer need to endure the trouble of setting up a foundation and hiring staff.（超级捐赠者不再需要忍受设立基金会和雇佣员工的麻烦。）可知，承接上文内容，为对上文内容的语意递进，同时引起下文，起到上下文的承上启下作用。故选D项。 V. Summary writing (10’) Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize in no more than 60 words the main idea of the passage and how it is illustrated. Use your own words as far as possible. The Evolution of Robotics: A Journey from Imagination to Reality The development of robots represents a fascinating journey from mere imagination to practical reality. Over the years, advancements in technology and engineering have pushed the evolution of robots, transforming them from simple mechanical devices to complicated machines capable of copying human behavior and performing complex tasks. The history of robotics dates back centuries, with early concepts of mechanical beings found in ancient stories and legends. However, it was not until the 20th century that significant progress was made in the field of robotics. The appearance of industrial robots in the mid-20th century revolutionized manufacturing processes, leading to increased efficiency and productivity in factories around the world. One of the most significant milestones in the development of robots was the invention of the programmable robot arm by George Devol and Joseph Engelberger in the 1950s. This innovation paved the way for the widespread adoption of robots in industrial settings, where they could perform repetitive tasks with correctness and accuracy. Another milestone was the introduction of the first autonomous mobile robot, Shakey, developed by researchers at Stanford Research Institute in the 1960s. Shakey demonstrated the potential of robots to navigate and interact with their environment autonomously, laying the foundation for future advancements in robotics. The development of artificial intelligence (AI) has been instrumental in pushing the boundaries of robotics. AI-powered robots are capable of learning from their experiences, making decisions, and adapting to new situations. This has enabled the creation of social robots, such as Pepper and Sophia, which can interact with humans in meaningful ways. In recent years, there have been significant advancements in robotics, particularly in areas such as medical robotics, autonomous vehicles, and humanoid robots. Medical robots, for example, are being used for minimally invasive surgeries, precision medication delivery, and patient care. Autonomous vehicles are revolutionizing transportation, with companies like Tesla and Waymo developing self-driving cars. Meanwhile, humanoid robots like Boston Dynamics' Atlas are pushing the boundaries of what robots can achieve, with capabilities such as dynamic movement and dexterity. 71.______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Robotics development has been driven by technology and engineering advancements.

Grammar and Vocabulary (20’) Section A（10’） Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank. Throughout the world, only 15% of the materials that are used to make clothing is properly recycled, according to the Alle SacArthur Club, an organization in Liverpool, UK, that boosts the circular economy. Most clothing waste—an 21 (estimate) 82 million tonnes from the fashion industry alone-produced every year ends up buried or burnt. 22 (handle) all that waste, methods to recover and reuse the material are intended as an active response to the future risks by researchers and start-up companies. Much of their focus is on chemical recycling, 23 the material is broken down into its building blocks and applied to create new materials, including fibres that 24 (weave) into new clothes. The challenges lie in 25 (develop) the processes for such treatment. They have to be practical, but they also have to be at least as cost-effective as simply making new fibres. 26 the natural cellulose fibres from cotton, some other materials include human-made cellulosic fibres. They are derived from wood-pulp cellulose and may be used to produce materials such as viscose (rayon) and a similar material called lyocell. A change in the manufacturing process is being applied to the textile-waste problem by Essen, a start-up in Seattle, Washington. 27 the company has fundamentally devoted to the process is that it uses discarded textiles, instead of wood, as the source of its cellulose. It has also adjusted the process to produce a fibre that the firm’s co-founder and president Christo Stan says is superior to 28 other cellulosics and cotton, and that can be recycled more times. Although there are abundant technical challenges, the main barrier 29 widespread textile recycling could be economic, says materials engineer Lijiang Jiang at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA. “Most of the materials are not that invaluable,” Jiang says. So cheap it is to produce polyester, cotton and other fabrics 30 there’s little profit margin unless the recycling processes themselves are very inexpensive. Section B（10’） Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need. A. signs B. significant C. supervised D. decline E. involved F. distinct G. justification H. mapped I. mounting J. hospitalized K. equivalent In a study comparing 46 severe COVID-19 patients with 460 matched controls, researchers found the mental impacts of severe COVID-19 six months later can be the ____31____ to aging 20 years—going from 50 to 70 years old—or losing 10 IQ points. “Cognitive impairment is common to a wide range of neurological disorders, including dementia (痴呆), and even routine aging, but the patterns we saw—the cognitive ‘fingerprint’ of COVID-19—was ____32____ from all of these, ” says neuroscientist David Menon from the University of Cambridge in the UK, who was senior author of the study. The experiment involved 46 people who’d gone to Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge as a result of COVID-19 between March and July 2020. An average of six months after their infection, researchers ____33____ them using a testing tool called Cognitron to see how they were doing in areas such as memory, attention, reasoning, as well as anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder. The researchers compared their results against a matched control group of 460 people. These results were then ____34____ to see how far they deviated from expected scores for their age and demographic (群体), based on 66, 008 members of the general public. The results showed that those who’d survived severe COVID were less accurate and had slower response times than the general public. The magnitude of cognitive loss was similar to the effects of aging between 50 and 70 years of age-or losing 10 IQ points. The somewhat good news is that, upon follow up, there were some ____35____ of recovery—but it was gradual at best. “We followed some patients up as late as ten months after their acute infection, so were able to see a very slow improvement, ” says Menon. “While this was not statistically ____36____, it is at least heading in the right direction, but it is very possible that some of these individuals will never fully recover.” This study only looked at the more extreme end of ____37____ patients, but there are plenty of other studies showing that even ‘mild’ cases can cause similar cognitive impacts. What’s still not fully understood is why and how the SARS-CoV-2 virus causes this cognitive ____38____. Previous research has shown that during severe COVID, the brain decreases glucose (葡萄糖) consumption in the frontoparietal network (额顶网络), which is ____39____ in attention, problem solving, and working memory. It’s also known that the virus can directly affect the brain. But the researchers suggest the likely culprit isn’t direct infection, but a combination of factors: including reduced oxygen or blood supply to the brain; clotting of vessels; and microscopic bleeds. There’s also ____40____ evidence that the body’s own immune and inflammatory response may be having a significant impact on the brain. The research has been published in eClinical Medicine. III.

However, with the proper support and resources, many people with Down syndrome are able to live fulfilling lives, participate in their communities, and achieve personal goals. Since Jack is a little smaller and slower than many of his peers, his parents, Devon and Kimberly, often worry that other kids might leave him out, fearing he could get hurt. But they do hope there are certain activities to keep Jack engaged. Devon suggested playing kickball, a sport he enjoyed growing up with his friends. The couple invited kids from the neighborhood, dividing them into two teams. And Jack’s only job was to kick the ball. This way, while the other kids were running, they didn’t have to worry about accidentally knocking Jack over, but he could still be involved in every play and every kick. Thus the kickball team, named the Inclusion FC, was established by the couple and a group of kids in the community to involve more kids like Jack and make them all feel included. They played and trained like professional players, often amusing that the Inclusion FC helped develop their talents and achieve their athletic dreams. After one game, Kimberly posted a video about the experience online, where it has gone viral with more than 1.5 million views and almost 3,000 comments. “Best Dad Ever! Inclusion Matters!” she titled the video. “The cool thing for us is that Jack now has relationships with all the kids in the neighborhood,” Devon continues. “With the Inclusion FC taking off, I thought, this is so amazing because it has got to be that glimpse of hope for those with Down syndrome, and every kid is a special gift.” As for Jack’s future, the parents hope that he continues to grow up in a world where he’s accepted and included. “There’s so many possibilities out there,” Kimberly says. 59．What does the author intend to imply about Jack in paragraph 1? A．He may be left out by his peers. B．He will get rid of Down syndrome. C．He can enjoy his life and himself with support. D．He might face challenges due to his personality. 60．Which of the following describes Jack’s parents best? A．Strict. B．Devoted. C．Innocent. D．Modest. 61．Why was the kickball team set up?

D．To treat children’s disabilities in sports. 62．What does the couple stress when talking about their efforts? A．The importance of competition in sports. B．The need for constant practice to succeed. C．The significance of posting videos online. D．The value of celebrating kids’ unique ability. (C) People consistently underestimate how much others in their social circle might appreciate an unexpected phone call, text or email just to say hello, and the more surprising the connection, the greater the appreciation, according to a new study. In the study, researchers from the University of Pittsburgh conducted some experiments involving more than 5, 900 participants. In one experiment, half of the participants were asked to recall the last time they reached out to someone in their social circle after a prolonged (长期的) period of not interacting with them. The rest were asked to recall a similar situation where someone reached out to them. Participants were then asked to indicate on a 7-point scale how much either they or the person they reached out to appreciated. People who recalled reaching out thought the gesture was significantly less appreciated than those who recalled receiving a communication. In other experiments, participants sent a short note, or a small gift, to someone in their social circle with whom they had not interacted in a while. Similar to the previous experiment, participants who initiated (发起) contact were asked to rate on a 7-point scale the extent to which they thought the recipient would appreciate or feel grateful for the contact. After the notes or gifts were sent, researchers also asked the recipients to rate their appreciation. Across all experiments, those who initiated the communication significantly underestimated the extent to which recipients would appreciate the act of reaching out. Besides, the researchers found that people receiving the communication placed greater focus than those initiating the communication on the surprise element, and this heightened focus on surprise was associated with higher appreciation. “We also found that people underestimated others’ appreciation to a greater extent when the communication was more surprising, as opposed to part of a regular communication pattern, or the social ties between the two participants were weak,” added lead author Peggy Liu. Initiating social contact after a prolonged period of disconnection can be daunting because people worry about how such a gesture might be received. But these findings suggest that their hesitations may be unnecessary, as others are likely to appreciate being reached out to more than people think. 63．How did the researchers conduct the experiments? A．By listing arguments. B．By giving examples. C．By making assumptions. D．By making comparisons. 64．According to paragraph 3, what were the participants asked to do? A．To rank their appreciation. B．To make an unexpected call. C．To express their thoughts. D．To do the same experiments. 65．Based on the research, who would show higher appreciation? A．One receiving a gift of great value. B．One often contacted by a close friend. C．One connected quite unexpectedly. D．One making regular contacts with others. 66．What does the underlined word “daunting” in the last paragraph probably mean? A．Unbearable. B．Discouraging. C．Illogical. D．Immoral. Section C（8’） Directions: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. It is certainly difficult to make money. But should money be difficult to give away? In The Gilded Age, industrialists such as Andrew Carnegie and John D．Rockefeller worried about waste and misuse; Carnegie wrote in 1889 that $950 of every $1,000 that went to charity was “unwisely spent”. 67 Donors ran lengthy application processes, provided funds and fulfilled painstaking reporting requirements. In 2006 The Economist called it “philanthrocapitalism (慈善资本主义)”. 68 The 400 richest Americans have given away just 6% of their combined fortunes, according to Forbes. At the last count in 2022, almost $1.2 trn was sitting in American private foundations and $230bn in donor-advised funds, a sort of savings account for donors. Plenty of money is being marked for charity. But it is not getting to worthy causes fast enough. Fortunately, a new generation of donors is once again shaking up the world of big philanthropy (慈善事业). Leading the mission is MacKenzie Scott, who simplified the process of giving and is donating billions of dollars a year with few conditions. This “no-strings giving” is changing mega-donors’ long-held assumptions. 69 One is the recognition that philanthropists do not have to do everything themselves. 70 An upside of a decades-long trend for businesslike philanthropy is that armies of consultants have emerged to help donors draw up a strategy and conduct due diligence on potential recipients. Donors can team up and share the work, too. Another lesson from the no-strings crowd is that philanthropists can trust recipients to put money to good use once the proper due diligence is in place. That means analyzing a nonprofit organization’s annual reports and interviewing its leaders and other funders. A．It offers lessons for those struggling to get money out of the door. B．In addition to that, her charity work is too numerous to mention. C．However, this idea that charities’ money is wasted has been proven wrong by evidence. D．Mega-donors no longer need to endure the trouble of setting up a foundation and hiring staff. E．Two decades on, however, it’s become clear that all this paperwork puts the brakes on giving. F．Around the turn of the millennium donors looked to data and rules as a way to stop waste. V. Summary writing (10’) Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize in no more than 60 words the main idea of the passage and how it is illustrated. Use your own words as far as possible. The Evolution of Robotics: A Journey from Imagination to Reality The development of robots represents a fascinating journey from mere imagination to practical reality. Over the years, advancements in technology and engineering have pushed the evolution of robots, transforming them from simple mechanical devices to complicated machines capable of copying human behavior and performing complex tasks. The history of robotics dates back centuries, with early concepts of mechanical beings found in ancient stories and legends. However, it was not until the 20th century that significant progress was made in the field of robotics. The appearance of industrial robots in the mid-20th century revolutionized manufacturing processes, leading to increased efficiency and productivity in factories around the world. One of the most significant milestones in the development of robots was the invention of the programmable robot arm by George Devol and Joseph Engelberger in the 1950s. This innovation paved the way for the widespread adoption of robots in industrial settings, where they could perform repetitive tasks with correctness and accuracy. Another milestone was the introduction of the first autonomous mobile robot, Shakey, developed by researchers at Stanford Research Institute in the 1960s. Shakey demonstrated the potential of robots to navigate and interact with their environment autonomously, laying the foundation for future advancements in robotics. The development of artificial intelligence (AI) has been instrumental in pushing the boundaries of robotics. AI-powered robots are capable of learning from their experiences, making decisions, and adapting to new situations. This has enabled the creation of social robots, such as Pepper and Sophia, which can interact with humans in meaningful ways. In recent years, there have been significant advancements in robotics, particularly in areas such as medical robotics, autonomous vehicles, and humanoid robots. Medical robots, for example, are being used for minimally invasive surgeries, precision medication delivery, and patient care. Autonomous vehicles are revolutionizing transportation, with companies like Tesla and Waymo developing self-driving cars. Meanwhile, humanoid robots like Boston Dynamics' Atlas are pushing the boundaries of what robots can achieve, with capabilities such as dynamic movement and dexterity. 71.______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ VI.
