M: OK, I understand. If you would like, I can ask my dad if there are any openings at his company. In the meantime, you can look in the newspaper for job openings.
W: I have already begun looking for a new job on an employment website. There are so many job openings, but I don’t know what to apply for.
M: Have you tried talking to your boss about this yet? They may have a solution that you haven’t thought of. Maybe there is another store you can work at.

M: Why would I want to do that? Walking is for old people. This is the age of computers.
W: Sitting in front of a computer isn’t real life.
M: Of course it is. I can see all the scenery I want to see, anywhere in the world. And there is no lack of fresh air in my room.
W: But you need to stretch your legs and get your heart pumping. There is nothing like walking to keep you fit.
M: But you go to the gym. Why do you need to walk as well?
W: It is best to make your exercise various and use different muscles. And anyway, I enjoy walking.
M: I’ll go with you, but I’ve just started a game with a guy in France. I can’t just turn off my computer and go.
W: How long will it take to finish?
M: Probably about half an hour.
W: OK, I’ll make a cup of tea and you play your game. After that we’ll go for a walk. Is it a deal?
M: It’s a deal.

Our studio is small, but it has three different-sized rooms. Each room is shaped differently to offer a different type of sound when recording. Each room is connected to our computer software by the recording equipment in each room. All you will need to bring are your guitars, drums and violins. Our rate is more than affordable. You won’t find a better deal anywhere else. You have already heard samples of my work. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be here. What I can do for you today is let you try out the space for no cost. My hours are always flexible. If you feel the need to record late at night, my staff or I can be here within minutes. If you need a review or more information, I can give you the numbers of other customers we have worked with. Some very famous names have recorded their music in our studio. We are very proud of having worked with them.

As Elizabeth Stone once said, “Having children is like having your heart go walking around outside of your body.” You send them off to school and hope that the world treats them kindly because when they hurt, you hurt. Surely it’s inevitable that your child will experience hurt feelings at some point. So, it’s wise to be ready for those moments.
But what truly prepares you for the moment when the child you love so much unexpectedly heals the wounds of your own inner child? A mom, who goes by Soogia, posted a video on TikTok explaining a phone call she received from a parent in her daughter’s classroom. The mom called to inform Soogia that their kids had been sharing lunch with each other.
Soogia wasn’t prepared for what came next. The classmate’s mother informed her that her son loved the food Soogia’s daughter brought to school and wanted to learn how to cook it too.
That may seem like a small thing to some, but the small gesture healed a little bit of Soogia’s inner child. Growing up as a Korean kid in California, Soogia had different experiences from her children.
“I guess I just never thought that my kids would be the generation of kids that could go to school and not just proudly eat, but share their food with other kids that were just so open and accepting to it,” Soogia said through tears. “They don’t sit there eating their food alone, feeling ashamed and wishing that their fried rice was a bagel instead or something like that. And I know, it sounds so small and it sounds so stupid, but knowing that their experience at school is so different from mine in such a positive way is just so hopeful.”
Soogia’s tearful video pulled at the heartstrings of her viewers who shared their thoughts in the comments.
“These Gen Alpha babies really are a different, kinder generation. I love them so much,” someone revealed.
24.What is the purpose of quoting at the beginning of the passage?
A.To illustrate the hard work of being a parent.
B.To stress parents’ consistent concerns about their children.
C.To introduce the story about a child’s growth that follows.
D.To contrast the different feelings between parents and children.
25.Why did the classmate’s mother call Soogia?
A.To ask for the lunch recipe her son loved.
B.To invite Soogia to prepare lunch for the children together.
C.To inform Soogia of her daughter’s understanding behavior at school.
D.To express her appreciation for the lunch Soogia’s daughter brought.
26.What makes Soogia feel comforted?
A.Her child can finally fit in with American society.
B.Her child has gained friendship and recognition at school.
C.Her child needn’t feel ashamed of their cultural background.
D.Her child can share their favorite food with their classmates.
27.What can we infer about Soogia’s opinion of the new generation of children?
A.Open-minded and inclusive. B.Adventurous and open-minded.
C.Tolerant and ambitious. D.Friendly and ambitious.
【答案】24.B 25.D 26.C 27.A
【导语】文章通过一个妈妈Soogia分享的故事,讲述了她的孩子在学校分享午餐的经历,以及这一小事如何治愈了她内心的创伤,并引发了对新一代孩子开放和包容特质的思考。
24.推理判断题。根据第一段中“As Elizabeth Stone once said, ‘Having children is like having your heart go walking around outside of your body.’ You send them off to school and hope that the world treats them kindly because when they hurt, you hurt. Surely it’s inevitable that your child will experience hurt feelings at some point. So, it’s wise to be ready for those moments.(正如伊丽莎白·斯通曾经说过,“有了孩子就像你的心在体外行走。”你把他们送去学校,希望世界善待他们,因为当他们受伤时,你也会受伤。当然,你的孩子迟早会经历一些伤心的时刻。所以,为这些时刻做好准备是明智的)”可推知,文章开头引用Elizabeth Stone的话是为了强调父母对孩子持续的关心,即孩子受伤时父母也会感到伤心。
25.细节理解题。根据第二段中“A mom, who goes by Soogia, posted a video on TikTok explaining a phone call she received from a parent in her daughter’s classroom. The mom called to inform Soogia that their kids had been sharing lunch with each other.(一位名叫Soogia的妈妈在TikTok上发布了一段视频,解释了她在女儿的教室里接到一位家长的电话。这位母亲打电话告诉苏吉亚,他们的孩子们一直在互相分享午餐)”及第三段中“The classmate’s mother informed her that her son loved the food Soogia’s daughter brought to school and wanted to learn how to cook it too.(同学的妈妈告诉她,她的儿子很喜欢Soogia的女儿带到学校的食物,也想学做这道菜)”可知,同学的母亲打电话给Soogia,对Soogia女儿带来的午餐表示感谢。
26.细节理解题。根据第四段中“Growing up as a Korean kid in California, Soogia had different experiences from her children.(作为一个在加州长大的韩国孩子,Soogia的经历与她的孩子们不同)”及第五段中““I guess I just never thought that my kids would be the generation of kids that could go to school and not just proudly eat, but share their food with other kids that were just so open and accepting to it,” Soogia said through tears.(“我想我从来没有想过我的孩子们会成为这一代的孩子,他们上学时不仅骄傲地吃饭,而且还和其他孩子分享他们的食物,他们是如此开放和接受,”Soogia流着泪说)”和“They don’t sit there eating their food alone, feeling ashamed and wishing that their fried rice was a bagel instead or something like that.(他们不会独自坐在那里吃东西,感到羞愧,希望他们的炒饭是百吉饼或类似的东西)”可知,妈妈Soogia因为自己的韩国文化背景,曾经没有自信,而且时常为自己的饭菜感到羞愧,而女儿与之截然不同的行为,这让她倍感治愈。
27.推理判断题。根据第五段中“I guess I just never thought that my kids would be the generation of kids that could go to school and not just proudly eat, but share their food with other kids that were just so open and accepting to it(我想我从来没有想过我的孩子们会成为这样的一代孩子,他们在上学的时候不仅自豪地吃东西,而且还和其他孩子分享他们的食物,他们是如此开放和欣然接受)”、最后一段中“‘These Gen Alpha babies really are a different, kinder generation. I love them so much,’ someone revealed.( “这些阿尔法世代的孩子们真的是一个不同的、更善良的一代。我非常爱他们,”有人说)”和前文提到的Soogia的女儿与同学分享午餐,以及同学想要学习做这道菜的事情,可推知Soogia认为新一代的孩子是开放和包容的。
C
No longer something off in the distance, the new technology is all over our screens. AI has arrived in tangible ways, big and small. Here are a few examples of how AI connects with pop culture.
A new band called Velvet Sundown gained popularity, drawing over one million plays in just a few weeks. It has been revealed that the band isn’t a band after all, but a synthetic (合成的) music project guided by human creative direction, and composed, voiced, and visualized with the support of artificial intelligence. An AI-generated musician called Solomon Ray leads the iTunes top 100 pop albums chart.
Should classics remain untouched and endure as artifacts (人工制品) of the time during which they were created? Or should new technology be embraced as a way to make these classics relevant to new generations? Those questions are at the center of “The Wizard of Oz”. Sphere Entertainment Company spent an estimated $80 million to modernize the 1939 musical, teaming up with Google to make the movie large enough to fit a screen.
Building up a loyal podcast (播客) audience was traditionally a byproduct of familiarity between the host and listeners. The same technology behind popular chatbots can now cut some of the busy work down for podcasters. “The thing you’re listening for is a window into someone else’s consciousness. That is the whole ballgame. Some leading podcasters have tried it out and then decided to drop it, and the big podcast publishers are also shying away from it.” Lees said.
Tilly Norwood, a realistic-appearing AI generated actress, has sparked concern in Hollywood over job replacement. James Cameron said, “I just want to point out we don’t use it on the ‘Avatar’ films. We honor and celebrate actors. We don’t replace actors. I think Hollywood will be self-policing on that.”
28.What phenomenon does the author point out in paragraph 2?
A.Living artists fill up social-media feeds.
B.AI-generated musicians find success.
C.The band earns good money from plays.
D.The revelation of the band disappoints people.
29.What does the author try to illustrate by mentioning “The Wizard of Oz”?
A.Classics should welcome AI. B.The movie is outdated.
C.The film adaptation is costly. D.Google is a reliable AI partner.
30.What can be inferred about Lees’ attitude to AI-supported podcasts?
A.Dismissive. B.Supportive. C.Tolerant. D.Disapproving.
31.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.AI Is at the Fingertips B.AI Creates Concerns
C.AI Affects Pop Culture D.Policies on AI Are on the Way
【答案】28.B 29.A 30.D 31.C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍人工智能以多种形式融入流行文化,在音乐、经典影视、播客和演艺等领域引发关注与讨论。
28.细节理解题。根据第二段中的“A new band called Velvet Sundown gained popularity, drawing over one million plays in just a few weeks. It has been revealed that the band isn’t a band after all, but a synthetic (合成的) music project guided by human creative direction, and composed, voiced, and visualized with the support of artificial intelligence. An AI-generated musician called Solomon Ray leads the iTunes top 100 pop albums chart. (一个名为Velvet Sundown的新乐队走红,短短几周内播放量就超过100万次。据悉,该乐队并非真正的乐队,而是一个由人类创意指导、借助人工智能进行作曲、配音和视觉呈现的合成音乐项目。一位名为所罗门·雷的人工智能创作歌手占据了iTunes流行专辑百强榜榜首。)”可知,作者在第二段指出人工智能生成的音乐人获得了成功这一现象。故选B项。
29.推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Should classics remain untouched and endure as artifacts (人工制品) of the time during which they were created? Or should new technology be embraced as a way to make these classics relevant to new generations? Those questions are at the center of “The Wizard of Oz”. Sphere Entertainment Company spent an estimated $80 million to modernize the 1939 musical, teaming up with Google to make the movie large enough to fit a screen. (经典作品是否应该保持原样,作为其创作时代的产物留存下去?还是应该拥抱新技术,让这些经典与新一代产生关联?这些问题正是《绿野仙踪》项目的核心。Sphere Entertainment Company估计花费了8000万美元对这部1939年的音乐剧进行现代化改造,并与谷歌合作,使影片尺寸足以适配屏幕。)”可知,作者提及《绿野仙踪》是为了说明经典作品应该接纳人工智能。故选A项。
30.推理判断题。根据第四段中的““The thing you’re listening for is a window into someone else’s consciousness. That is the whole ballgame. Some leading podcasters have tried it out and then decided to drop it, and the big podcast publishers are also shying away from it.” Lees said. (“你所追寻的是一扇窥探他人内心世界的窗口。这才是关键所在。一些知名播客主播尝试过人工智能后又决定放弃,大型播客发行商也在回避它。”利斯说。)”可知,利斯对人工智能辅助播客持不赞同的态度。故选D项。
31.主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第一段中的“Here are a few examples of how AI connects with pop culture.(以下是人工智能与流行文化相结合的几个例子。)”可知,文章从音乐、经典电影、播客、演员等多个方面介绍了人工智能对流行文化的影响,因此“人工智能影响流行文化”最适合作为本文标题。故选C项。
D
New research challenges the widespread belief that artificial intelligence is triggering a sharp rise in global greenhouse gas emissions. The study suggests that AI’s overall influence on worldwide pollution is small and could even support environmental and economic progress.
Scientists from the University of Waterloo and the Georgia Institute of Technology analyzed U.S. economic data alongside estimates of how frequently AI tools are used across different industries. Their goal was to understand what might happen to the environment if AI adoption increases along its current path.
According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, 83 percent of the nation’s economic activity relies on petroleum, coal and natural gas. These fuels release greenhouse gases when burned. The researchers noted that total energy use from AI in the United States matched the electricity consumption of Iceland, yet this amount remained insignificant when viewed at national or global levels.
“It is important to note that the increase in energy use is not going to be uniform. It’s going to be felt more in the places where electricity is produced to power the data centers,” said Dr. Juan Moreno-Cruz, a professor in the Faculty of Environment at Waterloo and Canada Research Chair in Energy Transitions. “If you look at that energy from the local perspective, that’s a big deal because some places could see double the amount of electricity output and emissions. But at a larger scale, AI’s use of energy won’t be noticeable.”
The study did not explore economic outcomes within the specific communities that host data centers, but the researchers identified several positive takeaways.
“For people who believe that the use of AI will be a major problem for the climate and think we should avoid it, we’re offering a different perspective,” Moreno-Cruz said. “The effects on climate are not that significant, and we can use AI to develop green technologies or to improve existing ones. Moving forward, we intend to apply the same approach to additional countries in order to understand how AI adoption may influence environmental outcomes across different regions of the world.”
32.Why did the scientists conduct this research?
A.To analyze AI’s industrial application frequency.
B.To promote environmental and economic progress.
C.To calculate economic data across different industries.
D.To explore AI’s environmental effects in its present trend.
33.What can we learn from paragraph 3?
A.US AI energy use is small on a global scale.
B.Iceland’s power consumption is mainly driven by AI.
C.Most US fossil fuels are used to power AI data centers.
D.83% of US fossil fuels are consumed for AI energy use.
34.What is Dr. Moreno-Cruz’s attitude towards AI’s effect on the climate?
A.Neutral. B.Dismissive. C.Objective. D.Concerned.
35.What will the researchers do in their follow-up research?
A.Study data centers’ economic outcomes. B.Expand their research to more countries.
C.Measure AI’s exact influence in all regions. D.Employ AI to develop and upgrade green tech.
【答案】32.D 33.A 34.C 35.B
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要说明了新研究反驳了AI会大幅增加温室气体排放的观点,其全球环境影响较小。研究还指出AI有助环保发展,未来团队将把研究拓展到更多国家。
32.细节理解题。根据第二段“Their goal was to understand what might happen to the environment if AI adoption increases along its current path.(他们的目标是探究如果人工智能的采用继续按照当前趋势发展,环境将会发生怎样的变化)”可知,科学家的主要目的是探究如果AI按照当前趋势发展下去,会对环境产生什么影响。故选D。
33.细节理解题。根据第三段“The researchers noted that total energy use from AI in the United States matched the electricity consumption of Iceland, yet this amount remained insignificant when viewed at national or global levels.(研究人员指出,美国在人工智能领域所消耗的总能源量与冰岛的电力消耗量相当,但从国家或全球层面来看,这一数量仍微不足道)”可知,在全球范围内,美国的人工智能能源消耗量相对较少。故选A。
34.推理判断题。根据第四段“If you look at that energy from the local perspective, that’s a big deal because some places could see double the amount of electricity output and emissions. But at a larger scale, AI’s use of energy won’t be noticeable.(从当地的角度来看,这种变化意义重大,因为某些地区的发电量和排放量可能会增加一倍。但从更宏观的角度来看,人工智能对能源的利用并不会引起明显的变化)”以及最后一段“The effects on climate are not that significant, and we can use AI to develop green technologies or to improve existing ones.(对气候的影响并不那么显著,我们可以利用人工智能来开发绿色技术或者改进现有的技术)”可知,Dr. Moreno-Cruz在文中既指出了AI能源使用在局部地区(如数据中心所在地)可能带来显著影响,又强调在全球层面AI的能源消耗并不显著,同时还提出AI可用于开发绿色技术。这种既看到问题又看到机遇,既分析局部又着眼全局的论述方式,体现了客观全面的态度。故选C。
35.细节理解题。根据最后一段“Moving forward, we intend to apply the same approach to additional countries in order to understand how AI adoption may influence environmental outcomes across different regions of the world.(接下来,我们计划将同样的方法应用于更多的国家,以了解人工智能的采用情况如何影响全球不同地区的环境状况)”可知,他们下一步计划将研究扩展到更多国家。故选B。

When finances feel unclear or unpredictable, your nervous system may remain on high alert, attempting to protect you from potential dangers. 36 Fortunately, our financial situation does not simply determine our peace. It is shaped even more by how we relate to our money.
When you have simple habits that help you see what is happening, make thoughtful decisions, and feel prepared for what comes next, your stress begins to soften. These supportive habits are designed for you. 37
Create a simple and supportive spending plan. A spending plan is not about limiting your life. 38 Knowing what is coming and where it is going reduces fear of the unknown. You gain clarity, which creates emotional comfort.
Track what comes in and what goes out. Recording your income and spending is a powerful way to create emotional clarity. In this way, you can see what is happening with your money. 39 Awareness helps you make choices with confidence instead of reacting from worry or uncertainty. Consider checking in once a week and observing. Some people like using apps for this, while others prefer a simple notebook or notes on their phone. What matters most is consistency, not perfection.
40 It is more than a savings account. It is a sense of security. Knowing you have something set aside, even if it starts very small, can soften your stress in a noticeable way. It sends a message to your mind that you are cared for and prepared. You do not need a large amount to begin. Start with what feels realistic. Even setting aside a few dollars each week creates momentum. The habit matters more than the size. Over time, these small amounts add up and begin to form a foundation of support.
A.That constant worry can be exhausting.
B.Build a small but steady emergency fund.
C.Make a kind and realistic plan for paying down debt.
D.They may help you feel more grounded with your money.
E.It’s about helping you feel calm and informed with your money.
F.Staying aware and calm can help you know more about your account.
G.Knowing it helps you remove the guesswork that often leads to stress.
【答案】36.A 37.D 38.E 39.G 40.B
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了如何通过建立好的财务习惯来减轻财务压力,获得内心的平静。
36.上文“When finances feel unclear or unpredictable, your nervous system may remain on high alert, attempting to protect you from potential dangers.(当财务状况不明朗或不可预测时,你的神经系统可能会一直处于高度警惕状态,试图保护你免受潜在危险的伤害)”说明财务不明朗会让神经系统警惕、产生担忧。空处和前文为顺接关系,说明这种持续担忧的影响。所以A项“那种持续的担忧会让人疲惫不堪。”符合语境。前文的“high alert”,“potential dangers”与A项中的“constant worry”相呼应。故选A。
37.上文“When you have simple habits that help you see what is happening, make thoughtful decisions, and feel prepared for what comes next, your stress begins to soften. These supportive habits are designed for you.(当你有一些简单的习惯,帮助你看清正在发生的事情,做出深思熟虑的决定,并为接下来的事情做好准备时,你的压力就会开始缓解。这些有益的习惯是为你设计的)”说明有益的习惯能缓解财务压力、帮助应对财务问题。空处和前文为顺接关系,说明这些习惯的具体作用。所以D项“它们可能会帮助你在金钱方面更有底气。”符合语境。D项中的They与上文中的“These supportive habits”相呼应。故选D。
38.上文“A spending plan is not about limiting your life.(支出计划不是为了限制你的生活)”说明支出计划的核心不是限制,空处应承接前文,说明支出计划的真正目的。所以E项“它是为了帮助你在金钱方面感到平静和了解情况。”符合语境。E项中的It与上文中的“A spending plan”相呼应,且“not about...It’s about...”构成句式呼应,明确支出计划的真正意义。故选E。
39.上文“Recording your income and spending is a powerful way to create emotional clarity. In this way, you can see what is happening with your money.(记录你的收入和支出是一种获得情感清晰的有效方法。通过这种方式,你可以看清你的钱的去向)”说明记录收支能让人清楚资金情况。空处和前文为顺接关系,说明这种清楚了解的好处。所以G项“了解这一点有助于你消除常常导致压力的猜测。”符合语境。G项中的it与上文中的“what is happening with your money”相呼应,且“remove the guesswork”与前文的“see what is happening”形成对应。故选G。
40.下文“It is more than a savings account. It is a sense of security. Knowing you have something set aside, even if it starts very small, can soften your stress in a noticeable way.(它不仅仅是一个储蓄账户。这是一种安全感。知道自己有一些储备,即使一开始很少,也能显著缓解你的压力)”说明此处介绍的是一种能提供安全感、缓解压力的财务习惯,即储备资金。空处应是该段的主旨句,引出下文的内容。所以B项“建立一个小而稳定的应急基金。”符合语境。B项中的“emergency fund”与下文中的“something set aside”,“savings account”相呼应,概括了该段核心内容。故选B。

Unlike a father like me, Alexa never gets 49 . It would tell playful jokes non-stop and upgrade stories to a higher 50 .

But soon I 52 the fact that both of us were actually far better off. Harvey lost himself in countless stories, and now he only asks me to read for him once or twice a week.
This smart device has become Harvey’s “digital dad”, which 53 me from the tiring task of storytelling without 54 our ties. It turns our stressful nights into relaxing and happy moments, which proves that technology can be a good 55 in family life.

67.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。
It was a quiet Sunday afternoon. Warm sunlight shone through the window and fell on my balcony. I pulled a small stool outside, took a broom, and prepared to clean the corner that had been untouched for weeks. The gentle wind brought the sweet smell of jasmine (茉莉花) from the garden downstairs. I hummed a little song, enjoying the peaceful afternoon.
As I swept dust and crinkled fallen leaves, a low, soft buzzing sound floated to my ears. At first, I paid it no mind, thinking it was just a few flies mindlessly flying in the sun. But the sound grew louder and steadier as I inched closer to the shadowed ceiling corner. I stood on my tiptoes looking carefully, and my heart skipped a beat — there on the wall, was a tiny, half-built hive (蜂房). Dozens of bees flew in and out, their tiny wings humming, busy building their home.
I stepped back quickly, a surge of fear shooting through me. I’d heard too many stories of painful bee stings, and my mind immediately flew to my little sister, who loved chasing butterflies on the balcony every afternoon. I turned around, rushing inside to grab the can of insect killer, my thoughts racing: get rid of this trouble before anyone gets hurt.
But when I held the cold can in my hand and stepped back onto the balcony, I froze. The bees were so small, so utterly focused on their work, never showing any sign of aggression toward me. They weren’t invaders (入侵者) — they were just tiny creatures, trying to build a safe home, just like my family did in this little apartment.
A wave of guilt washed over me, and I put the can down gently on the windowsill, losing my desire to hurt them. There must be a kinder way for both my family and these small bees. I took out my phone, determined to find a better way to live in peace with nature.

【答案】参考范文
Soon, I managed to contact a local beekeeper. When I explained the situation to him, he immediately agreed to come and help. Within an hour, he arrived at my doorstep, carrying a set of special tools and a protective suit. He put on the suit and carefully examined the hive on my balcony. He told me that these bees were actually very beneficial for the environment as they helped with pollination. He then started to plan how to safely move the hive to a more suitable place.
As the beekeeper carefully moved the hive, I watched, full of mixed feelings. On one hand, I was relieved that my family would be safe from potential bee stings. On the other hand, I felt a bit sad to see the bees leave their hard-built home. But I knew it was for the best. The beekeeper assured me that he would find a perfect spot in nature for the bees where they could thrive. As the bees flew away with their hive, I became more aware of the importance of protecting these small creatures and living in harmony with the natural world.

As Elizabeth Stone once said, “Having children is like having your heart go walking around outside of your body.” You send them off to school and hope that the world treats them kindly because when they hurt, you hurt. Surely it’s inevitable that your child will experience hurt feelings at some point. So, it’s wise to be ready for those moments.
But what truly prepares you for the moment when the child you love so much unexpectedly heals the wounds of your own inner child? A mom, who goes by Soogia, posted a video on TikTok explaining a phone call she received from a parent in her daughter’s classroom. The mom called to inform Soogia that their kids had been sharing lunch with each other.
Soogia wasn’t prepared for what came next. The classmate’s mother informed her that her son loved the food Soogia’s daughter brought to school and wanted to learn how to cook it too.
That may seem like a small thing to some, but the small gesture healed a little bit of Soogia’s inner child. Growing up as a Korean kid in California, Soogia had different experiences from her children.
“I guess I just never thought that my kids would be the generation of kids that could go to school and not just proudly eat, but share their food with other kids that were just so open and accepting to it,” Soogia said through tears. “They don’t sit there eating their food alone, feeling ashamed and wishing that their fried rice was a bagel instead or something like that. And I know, it sounds so small and it sounds so stupid, but knowing that their experience at school is so different from mine in such a positive way is just so hopeful.”
Soogia’s tearful video pulled at the heartstrings of her viewers who shared their thoughts in the comments.
“These Gen Alpha babies really are a different, kinder generation. I love them so much,” someone revealed.
24.What is the purpose of quoting at the beginning of the passage?
A.To illustrate the hard work of being a parent.
B.To stress parents’ consistent concerns about their children.
C.To introduce the story about a child’s growth that follows.
D.To contrast the different feelings between parents and children.
25.Why did the classmate’s mother call Soogia?
A.To ask for the lunch recipe her son loved.
B.To invite Soogia to prepare lunch for the children together.
C.To inform Soogia of her daughter’s understanding behavior at school.
D.To express her appreciation for the lunch Soogia’s daughter brought.
26.What makes Soogia feel comforted?
A.Her child can finally fit in with American society.
B.Her child has gained friendship and recognition at school.
C.Her child needn’t feel ashamed of their cultural background.
D.Her child can share their favorite food with their classmates.
27.What can we infer about Soogia’s opinion of the new generation of children?
A.Open-minded and inclusive. B.Adventurous and open-minded.
C.Tolerant and ambitious. D.Friendly and ambitious.

No longer something off in the distance, the new technology is all over our screens. AI has arrived in tangible ways, big and small. Here are a few examples of how AI connects with pop culture.
A new band called Velvet Sundown gained popularity, drawing over one million plays in just a few weeks. It has been revealed that the band isn’t a band after all, but a synthetic (合成的) music project guided by human creative direction, and composed, voiced, and visualized with the support of artificial intelligence. An AI-generated musician called Solomon Ray leads the iTunes top 100 pop albums chart.
Should classics remain untouched and endure as artifacts (人工制品) of the time during which they were created? Or should new technology be embraced as a way to make these classics relevant to new generations? Those questions are at the center of “The Wizard of Oz”. Sphere Entertainment Company spent an estimated $80 million to modernize the 1939 musical, teaming up with Google to make the movie large enough to fit a screen.
Building up a loyal podcast (播客) audience was traditionally a byproduct of familiarity between the host and listeners. The same technology behind popular chatbots can now cut some of the busy work down for podcasters. “The thing you’re listening for is a window into someone else’s consciousness. That is the whole ballgame. Some leading podcasters have tried it out and then decided to drop it, and the big podcast publishers are also shying away from it.” Lees said.
Tilly Norwood, a realistic-appearing AI generated actress, has sparked concern in Hollywood over job replacement. James Cameron said, “I just want to point out we don’t use it on the ‘Avatar’ films. We honor and celebrate actors. We don’t replace actors. I think Hollywood will be self-policing on that.”
28.What phenomenon does the author point out in paragraph 2?
A.Living artists fill up social-media feeds.
B.AI-generated musicians find success.
C.The band earns good money from plays.
D.The revelation of the band disappoints people.
29.What does the author try to illustrate by mentioning “The Wizard of Oz”?
A.Classics should welcome AI. B.The movie is outdated.
C.The film adaptation is costly. D.Google is a reliable AI partner.
30.What can be inferred about Lees’ attitude to AI-supported podcasts?
A.Dismissive. B.Supportive. C.Tolerant. D.Disapproving.
31.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.AI Is at the Fingertips B.AI Creates Concerns
C.AI Affects Pop Culture D.Policies on AI Are on the Way
D
New research challenges the widespread belief that artificial intelligence is triggering a sharp rise in global greenhouse gas emissions. The study suggests that AI’s overall influence on worldwide pollution is small and could even support environmental and economic progress.
Scientists from the University of Waterloo and the Georgia Institute of Technology analyzed U.S. economic data alongside estimates of how frequently AI tools are used across different industries. Their goal was to understand what might happen to the environment if AI adoption increases along its current path.
According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, 83 percent of the nation’s economic activity relies on petroleum, coal and natural gas. These fuels release greenhouse gases when burned. The researchers noted that total energy use from AI in the United States matched the electricity consumption of Iceland, yet this amount remained insignificant when viewed at national or global levels.
“It is important to note that the increase in energy use is not going to be uniform. It’s going to be felt more in the places where electricity is produced to power the data centers,” said Dr. Juan Moreno-Cruz, a professor in the Faculty of Environment at Waterloo and Canada Research Chair in Energy Transitions. “If you look at that energy from the local perspective, that’s a big deal because some places could see double the amount of electricity output and emissions. But at a larger scale, AI’s use of energy won’t be noticeable.”
The study did not explore economic outcomes within the specific communities that host data centers, but the researchers identified several positive takeaways.
“For people who believe that the use of AI will be a major problem for the climate and think we should avoid it, we’re offering a different perspective,” Moreno-Cruz said. “The effects on climate are not that significant, and we can use AI to develop green technologies or to improve existing ones. Moving forward, we intend to apply the same approach to additional countries in order to understand how AI adoption may influence environmental outcomes across different regions of the world.”
32.Why did the scientists conduct this research?
A.To analyze AI’s industrial application frequency.
B.To promote environmental and economic progress.
C.To calculate economic data across different industries.
D.To explore AI’s environmental effects in its present trend.
33.What can we learn from paragraph 3?
A.US AI energy use is small on a global scale.
B.Iceland’s power consumption is mainly driven by AI.
C.Most US fossil fuels are used to power AI data centers.
D.83% of US fossil fuels are consumed for AI energy use.
34.What is Dr. Moreno-Cruz’s attitude towards AI’s effect on the climate?
A.Neutral. B.Dismissive. C.Objective. D.Concerned.
35.What will the researchers do in their follow-up research?
A.Study data centers’ economic outcomes. B.Expand their research to more countries.
C.Measure AI’s exact influence in all regions. D.Employ AI to develop and upgrade green tech.

When finances feel unclear or unpredictable, your nervous system may remain on high alert, attempting to protect you from potential dangers. 36 Fortunately, our financial situation does not simply determine our peace. It is shaped even more by how we relate to our money.
When you have simple habits that help you see what is happening, make thoughtful decisions, and feel prepared for what comes next, your stress begins to soften. These supportive habits are designed for you. 37
Create a simple and supportive spending plan. A spending plan is not about limiting your life. 38 Knowing what is coming and where it is going reduces fear of the unknown. You gain clarity, which creates emotional comfort.
Track what comes in and what goes out. Recording your income and spending is a powerful way to create emotional clarity. In this way, you can see what is happening with your money. 39 Awareness helps you make choices with confidence instead of reacting from worry or uncertainty. Consider checking in once a week and observing. Some people like using apps for this, while others prefer a simple notebook or notes on their phone. What matters most is consistency, not perfection.
40 It is more than a savings account. It is a sense of security. Knowing you have something set aside, even if it starts very small, can soften your stress in a noticeable way. It sends a message to your mind that you are cared for and prepared. You do not need a large amount to begin. Start with what feels realistic. Even setting aside a few dollars each week creates momentum. The habit matters more than the size. Over time, these small amounts add up and begin to form a foundation of support.
A.That constant worry can be exhausting.
B.Build a small but steady emergency fund.
C.Make a kind and realistic plan for paying down debt.
D.They may help you feel more grounded with your money.
E.It’s about helping you feel calm and informed with your money.
F.Staying aware and calm can help you know more about your account.
G.Knowing it helps you remove the guesswork that often leads to stress.

This marked the flower’s introduction into imperial gardens. By the Tang Dynasty (618–907), Peonies had played a significant role 60 both literature and art, earning the title “national flower” during this era. Hundreds of 61 (poem) celebrating the beauty of peonies emerged during this period, many of which remain popular today. Peonies were celebrated not only for their aesthetic appeal but also for their 62 (symbol) meanings.
In recent years, the peony has gained overwhelming support to be 63 (official) recognized as China’s national flower. An online poll 64 (conduct) by the China Flower Association revealed that the peony received more than 90 percent of the votes among ten candidates. Its selection as the national flower 65 (reflect) its deep-rooted cultural significance and widespread popularity in China nowadays.

It was a quiet Sunday afternoon. Warm sunlight shone through the window and fell on my balcony. I pulled a small stool outside, took a broom, and prepared to clean the corner that had been untouched for weeks. The gentle wind brought the sweet smell of jasmine (茉莉花) from the garden downstairs. I hummed a little song, enjoying the peaceful afternoon.
As I swept dust and crinkled fallen leaves, a low, soft buzzing sound floated to my ears. At first, I paid it no mind, thinking it was just a few flies mindlessly flying in the sun. But the sound grew louder and steadier as I inched closer to the shadowed ceiling corner. I stood on my tiptoes looking carefully, and my heart skipped a beat — there on the wall, was a tiny, half-built hive (蜂房). Dozens of bees flew in and out, their tiny wings humming, busy building their home.
I stepped back quickly, a surge of fear shooting through me. I’d heard too many stories of painful bee stings, and my mind immediately flew to my little sister, who loved chasing butterflies on the balcony every afternoon. I turned around, rushing inside to grab the can of insect killer, my thoughts racing: get rid of this trouble before anyone gets hurt.
But when I held the cold can in my hand and stepped back onto the balcony, I froze. The bees were so small, so utterly focused on their work, never showing any sign of aggression toward me. They weren’t invaders (入侵者) — they were just tiny creatures, trying to build a safe home, just like my family did in this little apartment.
A wave of guilt washed over me, and I put the can down gently on the windowsill, losing my desire to hurt them. There must be a kinder way for both my family and these small bees. I took out my phone, determined to find a better way to live in peace with nature.

As the beekeeper carefully moved the hive, I watched, full of mixed feelings.
