Draper,who grew up surrounded by cooking,didn't consider a career in the food industry until she left her previous job to care for her mother and a newborn baby.During this period,she spent much time on cookbooks,Food Network shows,and food experiments,forming a deep connection with food that later shaped her professional path.When ready to re-enter the workforce,she set non-negotiable criteria for her new job:It'd have to involve food and people.

Driven to grow her business,Draper sought her own kitchen space,a goal achieved through networking.In her new venue,she hosts tastings,cooking classes,and catered events.Today,as a leader of an eight-person team,she remains rooted in her core mission:connecting people through food. 24.What do we know about Draper from paragraph 2?

An art exhibition that combines scientific knowledge with creative inspiration was recently presented in Albany.The exhibition featured artworks from MIX Artists in the Great Southern that showcased unique art-science cooperation between contemporary artists and marine scientists working in the region.The waters of the south coast and around Albany are well-known for their unique diversity of plants and animals,and the works conveyed important marine science knowledge and current research to a broad audience. The Western Australian Marine Science Institution(WAMSD provided opportunities for the artists to learn from marine scientists through talks,presentations and field trips.The artists also followed up with ongoing self-research and observation of their environment. Dr Jenny Shaw,WAMSI Research Director,said,"It's been a great opportunity to move science into the community and also see different interpretations of marine research topics."The scientists benefited from explaining their work to different audiences,and the interest from the artists was incredibly high,contributing to a shared appreciation for the marine environment. MIX Artists coordinator Annette Davis said the cooperation gave the artists fantastic insight into another world,and working with the scientists was fundamental to how the artworks had developed.“Responding with intuition(直觉)，curiosity and imagination,the artists have interpreted their findings through chosen materials and techniques and created artworks to help move this understanding into the wider community,"Davis said. The pursuit of marine science inspired some artists,whose artworks often centre around the finely-balanced coastal environment and the impact of structural change.Catherine Higham used seagrass and bamboo to make a large listening horn (to listen to underwater life.Christine Baker's work,titled Micro Plastic Menu,was inspired by a talk on microplastic pollution and how it enters food chains. 28.How did WAMSI assist the artists?

Unlike common chatbots like ChatGPT,OpenClaw is made to do real work.It can run locally on many operating systems and works well with everyday office software.It can automatically do data analysis,edit documents,and fix code,acting as a useful"digital worker". This change from just talking to doing things has made people want more compatible( devices;Apple's Mac mini,a good choice for local use,has sold out all over the world.Big tech companies like Tencent and Baidu have added one-click setup to make it easier to use,and local governments have made helpful policies to support related research and new ideas. However,fast growth also brings big risks.China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has warned that wrong setup may cause cyberattacks and data leaks.Because of this risk,some big international companies have stopped using OpenClaw at work.Also,people who use it a lot have to keep paying for expensive language model APIs. As international media said,OpenClaw shows the quick rise of useful AI tools and can help people work much better.But to make it grow well and last long,we need a balanced way:we must mix technology innovation,Internet safety,and cost control together. 32.What makes OpenClaw different from common chatbots according to the passage? A.It is able to perform practical tasks automatically. B.It supports global online interaction. C.It provides free office software for users. D.It works faster than other AI products. 33.What can we infer from the second paragraph? A.OpenClaw will completely replace human office workers in the near future. B.ChatGPT will soon be out of date because of the appearance of OpenClaw. C.Local governments are the main force driving the development of OpenClaw. D.The release of OpenClaw has had a direct influence on the sales of some compatible devices. 34.Why do some multinational corporations stop the internal use of OpenClaw? A.Because they worry about the high costs of paid language model APIs. B.Because they think OpenClaw is not as efficient as traditional office software. C.Because they are concerned about potential cyberattacks and data leakage risks D.Because they believe OpenClaw is not popular enough among their employees. 35.What is the author's attitude towards OpenClaw? A.Strongly against it. B.Fully supportive. C.Objective and balanced D.Uninterested and indifferent. 高二英语试题第5页共8页 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为 多余选项。 Student Gardens:More Than Just Growing Food Across the US,more and more schools are turning empty lots and playground corners into student-run gardens.These small green spaces aren't just about growing tomatoes or carrots- they're teaching kids big lessons that go beyond the classroom.

I had to take the bus to school,which was not something I'd had to do before.Dora and I took the bus together and we talked the whole way there about how we thought the first day would turn out.When we entered the school,everyone was hugging and saying hi and I was awkwardly standing there and holding onto my friend's bag through the crowd of people.I hated crowds so I stayed with Dora who was probably annoyed by me holding onto her the whole morning.I started to calm down when we all were waiting for the first bell to ring.When Dora and I had to separate,I didn't want to go to class.When I did,I simply stood at the door because I had no idea where to sit.I sat in the way back.My teacher seemed friendly so I was a little calm.My deskmate Jane barely talked,but when she did,she seemed really nice. Although a lot of students might not laugh when I made a strange joke,they weren't rude. My teachers told us about the high expectations for their school and I was kind of worried because I came from a school where I didn't have too much work or high expectations.After maths class,we needed to go to another classroom to have history class. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I was a little frightened because I had no idea where to go. ▲ △ △ During lunch,Jane and I joined Dora at a table. △ △ △ △ 高二英语试题第8页共8页
