Waste electronics contain harmful substances like lead and mercury, posing serious environmental and health risks. However, e-waste also represents a valuable “urban mine”. It holds an estimated 31 million tonnes of metals, 17 million tonnes of plastics, and 14 million tonnes of glass. One tonne of circuit boards can contain up to 800 times more gold than a tonne of gold-bearing rocks. Despite this, less than 1% of rare earth elements are recycled. Recycled e-waste is a valuable resource for sustainable manufacturing (制造业). Its metals, e.g. gold and copper, are reused in electronics, vehicles, and renewable energy systems. Recovered plastics find new life in durable products, while glass is processed into building materials. This circular (循环的) approach cuts energy use, reduces mining demand, and transforms waste into industrial resources, supporting both the economy and the environment. The e-waste management market is projected to more than double by 2027. While 81 countries have adopted Extended Producer Responsibility laws, collection rates still fall behind policy goals. To improve recycling, governments should strengthen EPR laws and invest in facilities. Institutions can promote research and public awareness. Individuals should properly drop off e-waste at collection points, fix items rather than throw them away, and support brands with strong environmental commitments. 21. What percentage do screens and metals account for in all e-waste compositions? A. 12%. B. 14%. C. 60%. D. 72%。 22. What can best describe e-waste? A. Harmful but valuable. B. Cheap and recyclable. C. Rare but replaceable. D. Dangerous and circular. 23. What is suggested for individuals to help recycle e-waste? A. Invest in recycling facilities. B. Launch awareness campaigns. C. Choose repair over replacement. B. Set clear personal take-back plans. B In the green mountains of southern Oman, men in traditional clothes are singing old poems in an ancient language. They are trying to keep this spoken tradition alive — only 2% of the population uses it. Khalid, a 41-year-old poet, sits under a tent and reads the poems. Other men repeat his words. “Jibbali poetry helps us save our language and teach it to young people,” Kathiri tells AFP. Most people in Oman speak Arabic. But in Dhofar, a mountainous area, people speak Jibbali. Researcher Almashani says it is an “endangered language”, with fewer than 120,000 speakers in a country of over 5 million. It is a real language with its own rules. It is older than Arabic and comes from South Arabian languages. “Jibbali is very old,” Almashani says. Dhofar’s isolation (隔离状态) once protected it — mountains to the west, the Rub Al Khali Desert to the north, and the Indian Ocean to the south. But isolation is not enough. Another Dhofar language, Bathari, is almost dead, with only 3 or 4 speakers left. Some fear Jibbali may face the same condition. Saeed Shamas, a social media supporter Dhofari heritage, said it was important for him to raise his children in a Jibbali-speaking environment to help keep the language alive. “If everyone around you speaks Jibbali, from your father, to your grandparents, then this is the language you will speak,” he said. After the poetry reading, nearby children told AFP they like Jibbali more than Arabic. But Almashani warns Jibbali is not taught in schools or well-recorded, so it is still in danger. Almasham and his team are making a dictionary with 125,000 words, translated into Arabic and English. They also plan a digital version with sound to help people say it. 24. What activity in southern Oman is described? A. Teaching Arabic to local children. B. Singing ancient poems in Jibbali. C. Discussing how to attract more visitors. D. Building tents in the mountainous areas. 25. What do we know about Jibbali? A. It is as popular as Bathari. B. It is widely spoken in Oman. C. It has a longer history than Arabic. D. It has rules based on other languages. 26. What once helped the survival of Jibbali? A. The Dhofar’ natural barrier. B. The disappearance of Bathari. C. The teaching in local schools. D. The popularity in social media. 27. What can be inferred from the last paragraph about Jibbali? A. It’s part of school courses. B. Its sounds are well-recorded. C. It faces potential extinction. D. It has a rich collection of poetry. C Large language models (LLMs) seem better at making people feel seen and heard than humans. This phenomenon, called “LLMpathy”, is both surprising and controversial (有争议的). Some argue that computers can’t truly empathize (共情) for lack of emotion. Others are alarmed by how readily people are trading human connection for digital ones. But beyond these concerns, chatbots might offer something more practical. If they are beating us at empathy, shouldn’t we try to learn what they are doing, right? Researchers initially wondered if AI advantage lay in its unlimited attention. But that doesn’t seem to explain it. A 2024 research in Harvard Business School revealed that people’s expressing of empathy, despite increased efforts, still fell short compared to those by ChatGPT. Chatbots’ success may come from avoiding all-too-human mistakes. Chatbots’ responses stood out mainly because they focused on acknowledging feelings, unlike humans who often shared a seemingly related experience to offer solutions, unintentionally damaging the hope of being truly heard. Chatbots avoid these pitfalls. They focus entirely on the speaker. More than humans, chatbots paraphrase, acknowledge and justify how people might feel. When people adopt similar methods, their connections strengthen. It bears noting that the AI advantage in empathetic conversations has limits. Its “paraphrase, acknowledge, follow up” may feel warm the first time, but dull the second. Most research tests people’s interactions with Chatbots just once, so AI’s edge might fade in longer, repetitive chats. Chatbots might be helpful, but they still can’t feel or truly care. The demand for AI therapists (理疗师) may be growing, but many people still prefer human support. Anyone who has repeated requests to a customer-service robot knows the feeling of desperately wanting a real person on the line. Some of the shortcomings of human connection are also, in fact, features. But the fact that we often must earn human empathy, and that it comes from limited beings who devote themselves to being there for us, is part of its beauty. 28. Why does AI often outperform humans at showing empathy? A. It has unlimited patience. B. It focuses on people’s feelings. C. It aims at solving problems. D. It shares related experience. 29. What does the underlined word “pitfalls” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Responses. B. Feelings. C. Experiences. D. Weaknesses. 30. What can we learn from the last paragraph? A. Service lines benefit human. B. In-person chats have limits. C. Human care is irreplaceable. D. Emotion is enhanced by AI. 31. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A. Deepen Empathy for Chatbots B. Learn to Be a Listener like Chatbots C. Chatbots: The Unlimited Attention D. Chatbots: The New Emotional Support D Each year, millions of tons of Microplastics are released into the environment. Scientists have identified them in deep ocean waters, farmland soils, wildlife, and even inside the human body. Laboratory experiments suggest exposure may be linked to organ damage and developmental problems. Despite their widespread presence, a critical knowledge gap remains about what happens after they enter living organisms. “Most current methods give us only a single-time picture,” said lead author Wenhong Fan. “We can measure the amount of microplastics present in a tissue, but we cannot directly observe how they travel, build up, transform, or break down inside living organisms.” Common detection tools require scientists to destroy tissue samples in order to analyze them. This approach prevents researchers from watching how particles (颗粒) behave over time. Fluorescence (荧光剂) imaging offers a possible solution, but current techniques often face problems such as fading signals or reduced brightness in complex biological environments. To address these limitations, the team designed a new fluorescent-based monitoring technique. Rather than coating plastic pieces with fluorescent, they planted light-giving materials directly into the plastic’s molecular (分子) structure. This method uses special materials that glow (发光) more brightly when grouped together, making the signal steady and reducing the loss of brightness during imaging. With this technique, researchers can adjust brightness, size, and shape. Because the fluorescent material is evenly distributed throughout each particle, both whole plastics and the smaller pieces created as they degrade remain visible. That capability opens the door to tracking the full life cycle of microplastics, from internal transport to final breakdown. The method is still being tested experimentally, but it is based on proven principles from chemistry and fluorescence imaging. “Real-time tracking will help us move beyond simple exposure measurements toward a deeper understanding of harmful-effect processes,” Fan said. As worries about plastic pollution grow, tools that show how microplastics behave inside living systems may play a key role in improving risk assessments and developing future environmental guidelines. 32. What is a limitation of current methods? A. They can’t analyze tissue samples. B. They ignore laboratory experiments. C. They fail to offer real-time tracking. D. They can’t find microplastics in humans. 33. How does the new technique differ from the traditional ones? A. It uses external light sources. B. It features built-in materials. C. It destroys tissues for analysis. D. It avoids fluorescent materials. 34. What does paragraph 5 focus on concerning the technique? A. Its advantages. B. Its principles. C. Its accessibility. D. Its popularity. 35. What can be inferred about the new technique in the last paragraph? A. It has hit the market. B. It may shape future green policies. C. It lacks scientific basis. D. It will revive chemistry industry. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 A. It’s no secret that artificial intelligence (AI) is changing the way we work. With more and more simpler tasks being automated, humans are left with more high-level cognitive (认知) tasks including idea generation, strategic planning, and creative writing. 36 The problem is that we still follow a mindset that reflects the era of assembly (组装) lines, which doesn’t encourage or facilitate the type of work needed today. Leaders constantly measured productivity in terms of hours spent at work or the number of abstract targets they reached. 37 Instead, we have to make a psychological switch, structuring each workday for quality instead of quantity. Start by kicking the old method of continuous work throughout the day. Research shows that continuous work damages creative idea generation and high quality, complex cognitive work. 38 It’s recommended that we use work sessions that are about 90 minutes long, attacking the hardest part of the task in the first 20 minutes and moving to the slower, easier work during the remaining time. 39 Data suggests that it’s better to work on tasks that involve creativity, imagination, and problem solving during the first few hours of the day and again right before you go to sleep. The middle of the day is better for something calling for concentration. 40 A. The time of day will also make a difference. B. This type of output doesn’t fit in the era of AI. C. AI enables efficient application of work schedules. D. Applying AI can improve our productivity significantly. E. Because of that, it’s better to work in bursts, giving the mind a rest. F. To excel in the new era of work, we’ll need to transform how we work. G. In between the focused work sessions, make time for a nap or low-effort efforts. 第三部分 语言运用 第一节完形填空（共15小题，每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 Inside the White Bear Bonsai Garden, located in Chongzhou, Sichuan, Chad Sinclair, 46, is fully 41 in tending dozens of bonsai (盆栽) trees in the peaceful surroundings.
