The 2025 Bird photographer of the Year contest, which received over 25,000 entries worldwide, has announced its winners, celebrating remarkable bird photography across skill levels.
Liron Gertsman (Canada) claimed the top prize with his breathtaking image The Frigate bird and the Diamond Ring. After more than a year of planning and a week of exploration in Mexico, Gertsman captured a Magnificent Frigate bird flying in front of the “diamond ring” stage of a total solar eclipse (日全食)— a short moment lasting just seconds. This win adds to his recent success at the 2025 Audubon Photography Awards, establishing his status as a top bird photographer.
Tomasz Michalski (Poland, 15-17 age group) was named Young Bird photographer of the Year for Minimalist Wings. During a trip to Nicaragua, he photographed a calm Black Vulture — a large bird that feeds on dead animals — drying its wings on a pole. Unimpressed by the plain scenery, he used creative framing to focus on part of the bird, resulting in a striking outline that impressed judges.
Sasha Jumanca (Germany, 11 and under) won Gold in her category with Graceful Flight over Wild Bloom. Exploring Romania’s Danube Delta, she captured a European Bee-eater in mid-flight over wildflowers, its colorful feathers harmonizing beautifully with the flowers. Jumanca admired the bird’s quick movements as it chased (追逐) insects to feed its chickens.
Sarthak Agrawal (India) claimed Gold in the Conservation (Single) category with Radiographing. The image shows an injured young cuckoo (杜鹃) having an X-ray after being hit by a vehicle in a city. Rescued by a wildlife foundation, the bird highlights the challenges large cuckoos face in urban areas, where smaller birds adapt more easily.
The contest honored winners across eight categories, and all winning photos are featured in a coffee-table book. For ambitious photographers, the 2026 competition is now open — encouraging students and hobbyists alike to capture the beauty of birds.
1. Where did Tomasz Michalski take his award-winning photo Minimalist Wings?
A. In Poland. B. In Nicaragua. C. In Romania. D. In Mexico.
2. What do Liron Gertsman’s and Sasha Jumanca’s works have in common?
A. They show birds in flight. B. They feature wildflowers.
C. They are from teen groups. D. They use creative framing.
3. Who focuses on the challenges faced by urban birds?

Approaching 96 at an age when most are lonely and in poor health, Olga Murray, full of energy, has been eagerly planning a trip to Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal, while keeping in contact with hundreds of friends around the world. How can she be in such good shape? Is it due to her good genes? (Her mother lived to 98.) or her daily salads and three-times-a-week workouts? Or might it have something to do with the retired lawyer’s second career as founder of a nonprofit organization?
Scientists are increasingly finding that the answer — living with purpose. Finding meaning in life or just engaging with something larger than yourself — can be a particularly healthy pursuit. Living with a sense of purpose can improve the quality of those final years. Murray offers a vivid example of how to create a sense of meaning.
Murray’s story began in 1984, after she had worked 37 years as a lawyer and was starting to think about retirement. At 59, while traveling in Nepal, Murray found herself amazed by the children there. “They were poor beyond anything I had ever experienced,” she recalled in a self-published memoir (自传) years later. “Yet they were the most joyful little kids anywhere on earth.” She wanted to put the rest of her life into helping educate Nepalese children.
Returning to Nepal the next year, she met Allan Aistrope, then a volunteer English teacher at the country’s only orphanage (孤儿院). The two combined forces, beginning with organizing college scholarships for four of the orphans. After another five years, they had launched the Nepal Youth Foundation (NYF), which by then was supporting several hundred scholarship students and raising 60 homeless children. In 1994, the two hired Som Paneru, a former scholarship student, as executive director. Murray has taken several steps to make sure the NYF will survive after the unavoidable loss of her presence. She handed over the presidency to Paneru in 2012. Now, she is busy as usual, leading lots of fundraising campaigns.
4. When did Murray plan to help Nepalese kids?
A. After her Nepal trip. B. In her 37th year of work.
C. When she retired in 2012. D. After meeting Allan Aistrope.
5. Who became NYF’s president in 2012?
A. Allan Aistrope. B. Som Paneru. C. Olga Murray. D. A Nepalese lawyer.
6. Which words can best describe Murray?
A. Devoted and energetic. B. Wealthy and lonely. C. Shy and experienced. D. Strict and impatient.
7. What is the author’s aim in writing the text?
A. To introduce Nepal’s poor kids. B. To advertise NYF’s scholarships.
C. To explain the value of life purpose. D. To describe Murray’s travel experiences.
【答案】4. A 5. B 6. A 7. C

Living through extreme heat waves can speed up aging, according to a study published Monday. Scientists analyzed 15 years’ health data from nearly 25,000 adults, finding two years of exposure to heat waves could speed up aging by 8 to 12 extra days. It may not sound like a lot, but this number builds over time, said Cui Guo, an assistant professor at the University of Hong Kong.
The research comes as human-induced (人为诱发的) climate change is making heat waves more intense and long-lasting. The West Coast of the United States is suffering from burning temperatures, while the impact of extreme heat is becoming increasingly severe, affecting countries such as Iran, Japan, Korea, and France.
In 2024, the hottest year on record, climate change was responsible for 41 extra days of extreme heat worldwide, according to an analysis by World Weather Attribution. Particular groups are weaker to faster aging because of heat, the researchers found. If you are an older person who has lived through many heat waves, you may age faster than a younger person who had the same exposure. Other factors, such as living without air-conditioning or working outdoors, can also make your aging rate significantly worse.
The study defined heat waves as both a period of at least two continuous days of abnormally high temperatures and any time when officials issued heat warnings. It also took the sum of a person’s heat exposure into account. The researchers quantified the heat’s effects by comparing people’s biological age to their chronological age (实际年龄).
The study used 12 of these health measurements, known as biomarkers, to work out how heat affected the rate of aging for the study’s participants. The results accounted for individual factors that can affect aging markers, such as exercise, smoking and preexisting disease. Since biological aging is closely linked to death and many diseases, speeding it up can be a sign of serious health problems. To address this, experts suggested taking personal protective measures.
8. How does the author develop the first paragraph?
A. By giving a definition. B. By presenting research data.
C. By making a comparison. D. By quoting a famous saying.
9. Why does the author mention some countries in paragraph 2?
A. To illustrate the serious situation of the research.
B. To show the widespread impact of extreme heat.
C. To call on global action against climate change.
D. To explain the causes of human-induced climate change.
10. Which group is more likely to age faster according to the text?
A. Construction workers laboring outdoors.
B. Teachers working in a school with central cooling.
C. Office clerks working in an air-conditioned building.
D. Delivery drivers laboring in air-conditioned vehicles.
11. What might be discussed in the follow-up paragraph?
A. Criticism of the study’s methodology and limitations.
B. A detailed list of the 12 biomarkers used in the study.
C. A comparison of aging rates in different climate zones.
D. The specific protective measures recommended by experts.
【答案】8. B 9. B 10. A 11. D

The world’s landfills are filling up with valuable electronics. According to the UN, about 62 million tons of e-waste are produced yearly. Only 22% is recycled. Most of the rest is buried or burned, in which case recoverable raw materials worth $63 billion go to waste.
Getting those materials out is a challenge. Many of these materials become polluted when e-waste is crushed during recycling, limiting the effectiveness of specialist extraction techniques. The process becomes simpler if products are taken apart and their parts sorted by composition before crushing.
The trouble is that manual disassembly (拆解) is labour-intensive and costly. Although robots are good at putting together a specific item, they struggle to recognize and take apart the thousands of different devices ending up in landfills. A new generation of robots powered by artificial-intelligence (AI) models, however, seems to be equal to the job.
ABB, an electrical-engineering company, is working with Molg, an American engineer, on robotic “mini-factories” to disassemble and recover materials from electronics used in big data centers. Meanwhile, Molg and his team in Germany aim higher. They are creating a robotic system for general recycling centers that must be flexible enough to handle diverse e-waste, ranging from phones to electric-car batteries, LED screens and solar panels. They are starting with an AI-assisted robot that can take apart old desktop computers.
The first thing the team’s robot does is to identify any offered product. All gathered information is analyzed and stored in its memory. Once the identification is completed, the AI system then determines which parts are worth removing. Analysis done, the AI generates a disassembly process for operating the robot’s arms, for example, choosing the order to remove screws (螺丝钉).
Such multi-purpose robots are likely to gain popularity as companies face growing legal pressure to manage their products’ end-of-life cycle. Therefore, the development of smarter tool-using robots should encourage more firms to ensure their products remain valuable even after being thrown away.
12. The statistics in the first paragraph aim to show that ______.
A. e-waste recycling is at a high level
B. most electronics are successfully recycled
C. the cost caused by e-waste in landfills is huge
D. the recycling of e-waste has to be improved urgently
13. What does the underlined word “extraction” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Recovery. B. Control. C. Protection. D. Production.
14. What will the companies probably do according to the last paragraph?
A. Reduce the production of electronics to cut e-waste.
B. Rely on taking-apart manually to handle their e-waste.
C. Make their products easier to recycle.
D. Ignore legal requirements on their products’ end-of-life cycle.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. AI Robots: A Helper for E-waste Classification.
B. AI Robots: Reducing Losses from E-waste.
C. AI Robots: Efficient Disassemblers of E-waste.
D. AI Robots: Finding Valuable Materials in E-waste.
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. C 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了全球垃圾填埋场电子垃圾堆积,现有回收方式存在不足,人工智能机器人有望高效拆解电子垃圾,助力回收利用。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“According to the UN, about 62 million tons of e-waste are produced yearly. Only 22% is recycled. Most of the rest is buried or burned, in which case recoverable raw materials worth $63 billion go to waste.(据联合国统计,每年产生约6200万吨电子垃圾。只有22%被回收。其余大部分被掩埋或焚烧,在这种情况下,价值630亿美元的可回收原材料被浪费。)”可知,第一段中的统计数据旨在表明电子垃圾的回收必须紧急改进。故选D。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段中“Getting those materials out is a challenge. Many of these materials become polluted when e-waste is crushed during recycling, limiting the effectiveness of specialist extraction techniques.(把这些材料取出来是一项挑战。许多材料在回收过程中被粉碎时受到污染,限制了专业extraction技术的有效性。)”可知,电子垃圾在回收过程中被粉碎,许多材料受到污染,这限制了专业回收技术的有效性,extraction意思为“回收”。故选A。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Such multi-purpose robots are likely to gain popularity as companies face growing legal pressure to manage their products’ end-of-life cycle. Therefore, the development of smarter tool-using robots should encourage more firms to ensure their products remain valuable even after being thrown away.(随着公司面临管理产品生命周期终结的法律压力越来越大,这种多功能机器人可能会越来越受欢迎。因此,更智能的工具使用机器人的发展应该鼓励更多的公司确保他们的产品即使在被丢弃后仍然有价值。)”可知,公司可能会使他们的产品更容易回收。故选C。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是根据第三段“The trouble is that manual disassembly (拆解) is labour-intensive and costly. Although robots are good at putting together a specific item, they struggle to recognize and take apart the thousands of different devices ending up in landfills. A new generation of robots powered by artificial-intelligence (AI) models, however, seems to be equal to the job.(问题在于,人工拆解耗时费力、成本高昂。机器人擅长组装固定产品,却难以识别并拆解垃圾填埋场里成千上万种各式各样的电子设备。不过,搭载人工智能模型的新一代机器人,似乎能够胜任这项工作。)”可知,文章主要介绍了人工智能机器人作为电子垃圾的高效拆解者,可助力电子垃圾回收,减少资源浪费,故C选项“人工智能机器人:电子垃圾的高效拆解者”最符合文章标题。故选C。

第二节(满分23分)
47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Leo’s voice had always been trapped in a cage of stutters (口吃). Whenever he tried to speak in class, words got stuck like wool in his throat, making his classmates laugh quietly at him. “You’ll never say a complete sentence in public,” Jake shouted from the back row, his tone sharp enough to kill, and for years, Leo had believed every word. His only escape was the school’s old lecture hall, where he’d whisper speeches to empty seats after class, tears burning as his tongue had trouble saying simple phrases.
Everything changed when Mr. Carter, the new literature teacher, caught him one afternoon. Instead of leaving, the teacher pulled up a chair. “I used to stutter, too,” he said softly. Leo’s head shot up, his eyes wide with shock. Mr. Carter, who gave fluent lectures, seemed impossible to connect with his own struggle. “I never could until I tried,” Mr. Carter added, handing him a flyer for the school speech contest next month. “The topic is ‘Silence’. I think you have something to say.” He also gave Leo a pack of note cards. “Write down your key points. They’ll help you stay on track.”
Leo stared at the flyer, his fingers rolling around the paper until it folded unevenly (不平) at the edges. But that night, he unfolded it again, looking at his reflection in the mirror. “I… I want to be heard,” he forced out, each word a battle. The next day, he showed up at Mr. Carter’s office. They started with tongue exercises, slowly and steadily. Leo practiced until his jaws ached, repeating lines into a tape recorder and listening back, checking at the pauses but holding onto the progress: a sentence that flowed all the way through and a word that didn’t get stuck. “I’ll be there watching you,” Mr. Carter promised on the last practice day. For the first time in years, his cage felt like starting to unlock.
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。
On the day of the contest, Leo stood backstage, waiting to be called.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
As Leo began to speak, something unexpected happened.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
On the day of the contest, Leo stood backstage, waiting to be called. When his name was called, his hands shook and he dropped his note cards. Jake’s laughter echoed through the hall. For a moment, Leo froze. But then he spotted Mr. Carter in the front row, nodding with encouragement. Taking a deep breath, Leo walked to the microphone. “I… never… could,” he stammered out, his voice trembling. “Until… I… tried. I’m... glad to be here. It hasn’t been easy,” he continued slowly.
As Leo began to speak, something unexpected happened. His voice grew stronger with each sentence. He talked about the cage of stutters, the whispers, and his decision to fight back. When he finished, silence lingered — then thunderous applause erupted. Jake sat frozen, his face red. Mr. Carter stood up, eyes glistening with pride. Leo stepped off the stage, heart racing. He didn’t know if he’d win, but it didn’t matter. For the first time, he’d broken through the silence. Whatever came next, he would never stop striving to be heard.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。男孩Leo从小口吃,总被同学嘲笑,一直特别自卑,只能偷偷躲在空礼堂自己练说话。后来新来的文学老师卡特发现了他,说自己以前也口吃,还鼓励Leo参加学校演讲比赛,陪着他从练发音开始刻苦训练,慢慢Leo终于有了进步,马上就要上台比赛了。
【详解】1.段落续写
①由第一段首句内容“比赛当天,Leo站在后台,等着被叫到。”可知,第一段可以描写Leo参加比赛的经过和内心的变化。
②由第二段句首内容“就在利奥开始说话时,意外的事情发生了。”可知,第二段可以描写Leo在卡特老师的鼓励下,克服自己的弱点,成功进行演讲的过程。
2.续写线索:比赛开始——Leo紧张——观众发笑——发现卡特老师——自我鼓励——完成演讲——演讲成功——个人感悟
3.词汇激活
行为类
①口吃:stammer/stutter
②颤抖:tremble/quiver
③站起来:stand up/rise to one’s feet
情绪类
①鼓励:encouragement/inspiration
②骄傲/光荣:pride/honor/glory
【点睛】【高分句型1】When his name was called, his hands shook and he dropped his note cards. (运用了when引导的时间状语从句)
【高分句型2】Mr. Carter stood up, eyes glistening with pride. (运用了eyes glistening with pride构成的独立主格结构作状语)

The 2025 Bird photographer of the Year contest, which received over 25,000 entries worldwide, has announced its winners, celebrating remarkable bird photography across skill levels.
Liron Gertsman (Canada) claimed the top prize with his breathtaking image The Frigate bird and the Diamond Ring. After more than a year of planning and a week of exploration in Mexico, Gertsman captured a Magnificent Frigate bird flying in front of the “diamond ring” stage of a total solar eclipse (日全食)— a short moment lasting just seconds. This win adds to his recent success at the 2025 Audubon Photography Awards, establishing his status as a top bird photographer.
Tomasz Michalski (Poland 15-17 age group) was named Young Bird photographer of the Year for Minimalist Wings. During a trip to Nicaragua, he photographed a calm Black Vulture — a large bird that feeds on dead animals — drying its wings on a pole. Unimpressed by the plain scenery, he used creative framing to focus on part of the bird, resulting in a striking outline that impressed judges.
Sasha Jumanca (Germany, 11 and under) won Gold in her category with Graceful Flight over Wild Bloom. Exploring Romania’s Danube Delta, she captured a European Bee-eater in mid-flight over wildflowers, its colorful feathers harmonizing beautifully with the flowers. Jumanca admired the bird’s quick movements as it chased (追逐) insects to feed its chickens.
Sarthak Agrawal (India) claimed Gold in the Conservation (Single) category with Radiographing. The image shows an injured young cuckoo (杜鹃) having an X-ray after being hit by a vehicle in a city. Rescued by a wildlife foundation, the bird highlights the challenges large cuckoos face in urban areas, where smaller birds adapt more easily.
The contest honored winners across eight categories, and all winning photos are featured in a coffee-table book. For ambitious photographers, the 2026 competition is now open — encouraging students and hobbyists alike to capture the beauty of birds.
1. Where did Tomasz Michalski take his award-winning photo Minimalist Wings?
A. In Poland. B. In Nicaragua. C. In Romania. D. In Mexico.
2. What do Liron Gertsman’s and Sasha Jumanca’s works have in common?
A. They show birds in flight. B. They feature wildflowers.
C. They are from teen groups. D. They use creative framing.
3. Who focuses on the challenges faced by urban birds?
A. Liron Gertsman. B. Sasha Jumanca. C. Sarthak Agrawal. D. Tomasz Michalski.

Approaching 96, at an age when most are lonely and in poor health, Olga Murray, full of energy, has been eagerly planning a trip to Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal, while keeping in contact with hundreds of friends around the world. How can she be in such good shape? Is it due to her good genes? (Her mother lived to 98.) or her daily salads and three-times-a-week workouts? Or might it have something to do with the retired lawyer’s second career as founder of a nonprofit organization?
Scientists are increasingly finding that the answer — living with purpose. Finding meaning in life or just engaging with something larger than yourself — can be a particularly healthy pursuit. Living with a sense of purpose can improve the quality of those final years. Murray offers a vivid example of how to create a sense of meaning.
Murray’s story began in 1984, after she had worked 37 years as a lawyer and was starting to think about retirement. At 59, while traveling in Nepal, Murray found herself amazed by the children there. “They were poor beyond anything I had ever experienced,” she recalled in a self-published memoir (自传) years later. “Yet they were the most joyful little kids anywhere on earth.” She wanted to put the rest of her life into helping educate Nepalese children.
Returning to Nepal the next year, she met Allan Aistrope, then a volunteer English teacher at the country’s only orphanage (孤儿院). The two combined forces, beginning with organizing college scholarships for four of the orphans. After another five years, they had launched the Nepal Youth Foundation (NYF), which by then was supporting several hundred scholarship students and raising 60 homeless children. In 1994, the two hired Som Paneru, a former scholarship student, as executive director. Murray has taken several steps to make sure the NYF will survive after the unavoidable loss of her presence. She handed over the presidency to Paneru in 2012. Now, she is busy as usual, leading lots of fundraising campaigns.
4. When did Murray plan to help Nepalese kids?
A. After her Nepal trip. B. In her 37th year of work.
C. When she retired in 2012. D. After meeting Allan Aistrope.
5. Who became NYF’s president in 2012?
A. Allan Aistrope. B. Som Paneru. C. Olga Murray. D. A Nepalese lawyer.

Living through extreme heat waves can speed up aging, according to a study published Monday. Scientists analyzed 15 years’ health data from nearly 25,000 adults, finding two years of exposure to heat waves could speed up aging by 8 to 12 extra days. It may not sound like a lot, but this number builds over time, said Cui Guo, an assistant professor at the University of Hong Kong.
The research comes as human-induced (人为诱发的) climate change is making heat waves more intense and long-lasting. The West Coast of the United States is suffering from burning temperatures, while the impact of extreme heat is becoming increasingly severe, affecting countries such as Iran, Japan, Korea, and France.
In 2024, the hottest year on record, climate change was responsible for 41 extra days of extreme heat worldwide, according to an analysis by World Weather Attribution. Particular groups are weaker to faster aging because of heat, the researchers found. If you are an older person who has lived through many heat waves, you may age faster than a younger person who had the same exposure. Other factors, such as living without air-conditioning or working outdoors, can also make your aging rate significantly worse.
The study defined heat waves as both a period of at least two continuous days of abnormally high temperatures and any time when officials issued heat warnings. It also took the sum of a person’s heat exposure into account. The researchers quantified the heat’s effects by comparing people’s biological age to their chronological age (实际年龄).
The study used 12 of these health measurements, known as biomarkers, to work out how heat affected the rate of aging for the study’s participants. The results accounted for individual factors that can affect aging markers, such as exercise, smoking and preexisting disease. Since biological aging is closely linked to death and many diseases, speeding it up can be a sign of serious health problems. To address this, experts suggested taking personal protective measures.
8. How does the author develop the first paragraph?
A. By giving a definition. B. By presenting research data.
C. By making a comparison. D. By quoting a famous saying.
9. Why does the author mention some countries in paragraph 2?
A. To illustrate the serious situation of the research.
B. To show the widespread impact of extreme heat.
C. To call on global action against climate change.
D. To explain the causes of human-induced climate change.
10. Which group is more likely to age faster according to the text?
A. Construction workers laboring outdoors.
B. Teachers working in a school with central cooling.
C. Office clerks working in an air-conditioned building.
D. Delivery drivers laboring in air-conditioned vehicles.
11. What might be discussed in the follow-up paragraph?
A. Criticism of the study’s methodology and limitations.
B. A detailed list of the 12 biomarkers used in the study.
C. A comparison of aging rates in different climate zones.
D. The specific protective measures recommended by experts.
D
The world’s landfills are filling up with valuable electronics. According to the UN, about 62 million tons of e-waste are produced yearly. Only 22% is recycled. Most of the rest is buried or burned, in which case recoverable raw materials worth $63 billion go to waste.
Getting those materials out is a challenge. Many of these materials become polluted when e-waste is crushed during recycling, limiting the effectiveness of specialist extraction techniques. The process becomes simpler if products are taken apart and their parts sorted by composition before crushing.
The trouble is that manual disassembly (拆解) is labour-intensive and costly. Although robots are good at putting together a specific item, they struggle to recognize and take apart the thousands of different devices ending up in landfills. A new generation of robots powered by artificial-intelligence (AI) models, however, seems to be equal to the job.
ABB, an electrical-engineering company, is working with Molg, an American engineer, on robotic “mini-factories” to disassemble and recover materials from electronics used in big data centers. Meanwhile, Molg and his team in Germany aim higher. They are creating a robotic system for general recycling centers that must be flexible enough to handle diverse e-waste, ranging from phones to electric-car batteries, LED screens and solar panels. They are starting with an AI-assisted robot that can take apart old desktop computers.
The first thing the team’s robot does is to identify any offered product. All gathered information is analyzed and stored in its memory. Once the identification is completed, the AI system then determines which parts are worth removing. Analysis done, the AI generates a disassembly process for operating the robot’s arms, for example, choosing the order to remove screws (螺丝钉).
Such multi-purpose robots are likely to gain popularity as companies face growing legal pressure to manage their products’ end-of-life cycle. Therefore, the development of smarter tool-using robots should encourage more firms to ensure their products remain valuable even after being thrown away.
12. The statistics in the first paragraph aim to show that ______.
A. e-waste recycling is at a high level
B. most electronics are successfully recycled
C. the cost caused by e-waste in landfills is huge
D. the recycling of e-waste has to be improved urgently
13. What does the underlined word “extraction” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A Recovery. B. Control. C. Protection. D. Production.
14. What will the companies probably do according to the last paragraph?
A. Reduce the production of electronics to cut e-waste.
B. Rely on taking-apart manually to handle their e-waste.
C. Make their products easier to recycle.
D. Ignore legal requirements on their products’ end-of-life cycle.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. AI Robots: A Helper for E-waste Classification.
B. AI Robots: Reducing Losses from E-waste.
C. AI Robots: Efficient Disassemblers of E-waste.
D. AI Robots: Finding Valuable Materials in E-waste.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整短文。
Leo’s voice had always been trapped in a cage of stutters (口吃). Whenever he tried to speak in class, words got stuck like wool in his throat, making his classmates laugh quietly at him. “You’ll never say a complete sentence in public,” Jake shouted from the back row, his tone sharp enough to kill, and for years, Leo had believed every word. His only escape was the school’s old lecture hall, where he’d whisper speeches to empty seats after class, tears burning as his tongue had trouble saying simple phrases.
Everything changed when Mr. Carter, the new literature teacher, caught him one afternoon. Instead of leaving, the teacher pulled up a chair. “I used to stutter, too,” he said softly. Leo’s head shot up, his eyes wide with shock. Mr. Carter, who gave fluent lectures, seemed impossible to connect with his own struggle. “I never could until I tried,” Mr. Carter added, handing him a flyer for the school speech contest next month. “The topic is ‘Silence’. I think you have something to say.” He also gave Leo a pack of note cards. “Write down your key points. They’ll help you stay on track.”
Leo stared at the flyer, his fingers rolling around the paper until it folded unevenly (不平) at the edges. But that night, he unfolded it again, looking at his reflection in the mirror. “I… I want to be heard,” he forced out, each word a battle. The next day, he showed up at Mr. Carter’s office. They started with tongue exercises, slowly and steadily. Leo practiced until his jaws ached, repeating lines into a tape recorder and listening back, checking at the pauses but holding onto the progress: a sentence that flowed all the way through and a word that didn’t get stuck. “I’ll be there watching you,” Mr. Carter promised on the last practice day. For the first time in years, his cage felt like starting to unlock.
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。
On the day of the contest, Leo stood backstage, waiting to be called.
