Weeks before, Mrs. Spica had assigned an essay about what we would like to be in the future. The paper had to be based on an interview with someone of that profession. As she explained the project, I dreamed of being a teacher, a psychologist, or a mailman. “Anthony,” Mrs. Spica said, interrupting my daydreams. “I already got someone for you to interview.” She handed me a piece of paper. “He will give you insight on what it means to be a writer.” I was confused.
I remembered when I was a kid, I began a lifelong love affair with books. Each week, I would come home with a book from the school library. I would soon begin to write my own. I was shy and introverted, and I never showed anyone my work. So, when Mrs. Spica asked us to write a short story based on a book that we recently read, I felt uneasy — my creations would be judged and graded.
However, I pushed through my discomfort and wrote a story. I got an A+ with a note saying “Have you ever thought about being a writer? You have so much potential.” In general, I am poor at receiving feedback. If it is negative, I end up feeling discouraged. If it is positive, I dismiss the comments as incorrect. So when Mrs. Spica told me all those encouraging words, I could not compute. Then, when the dream job assignment rolled around, she put action behind her encouraging words. Somehow, she found a way for me to connect with one of my favorite authors. All I had to do was call him at the appointed time.
I felt my heartbeat quicken as I heard the voice on the other line. We spent the next hour talking about writing, but I remember nothing in details. What I do remember is to continue writing.
24. Why was the author confused?
A. Mrs. Spica gave him a new choice. B. Mrs. Spica interrupted his daydream.
C. He didn’t expect Mrs. Spica’s words. D. He wondered how to do an interview.
25. What led the author to start his own writing?
A. His love for books B. His teacher’s praise.
C. A short story assignment. D. A phone call with a writer.
26. Which of the following best describes Mrs. Spica?
A. Demanding. B. Insightful. C. Ambitious. D. Reserved.
27. What does the author’s experience show?
A. Patience awakes passion. B. Challenge motivates ambition.
C. Encouragement brings confidence. D. Communication promotes understanding.
C
Computer hackers (黑客), in order to get more secret information, constantly improve at breaking into cyberdefenses (网络防御系统) to steal valuable documents. So some researchers propose using an artificial-intelligence algorithm (算法) to hopelessly confuse them, once they break in, by hiding the real deal in a mountain of misleading documents and information.
The algorithm, called Word Embedding-based Fake Online Repository Generation Engine (WE-FORGE), creates decoys of patents under development. If hackers were after, say, the recipe for a new drug, they would have to find the relevant needle in a sea of false documents. This could mean checking each recipe in detail — and perhaps investing in a few dead-end ones. “The name of the game here is, ‘Make it harder,’” explains Subrahmanian, its developer, Dartmouth College Cyber Security researcher. “Pain those stealing from you.”
Subrahmanian says he tackled this project after reading that companies are unaware of new kinds of cyberattacks for an average of 312 days after they begin. “Hackers have almost a year to decamp with all our documents, patents and intellectual property,” he says. “They have stolen almost everything. It’s not just the crown jewels — it’s the crown jewels, and the jewels of the cleaning lady, and the watch of the secretary!”
The system produces convincing traps by searching through a document for key words. For each one it finds, it calculates a list of related concepts and replaces the original term with one chosen at random. The process can produce dozens of documents that contain no patent information but still look credible. Subrahmanian and his team asked computer science and chemistry graduates to evaluate real and false patents from their respective fields. And the humans found the WE-FORGE-created documents highly believable.
WE-FORGE might eventually expand its boundary. Subrahmanian thinks this research will attract commercial interest. “I could definitely see an organization investing in this type of product,” he says. “If this creates believable decoys without releasing sensitive details within those traps, then I think you’ve got a huge win there.”
28. What does the underlined word “decoys” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Original terms. B. Cyber securities.
C. Misleading documents. D. Computer operating systems.
29. What can be inferred from Subrahmanian’s words in Paragraph 3?
A. Hackers are greedy. B. The network is unreliable.
C. The companies are wealthy. D. Intellectual property is diverse.
30. What can we learn from Paragraph 4 about the WE-FORGE-created documents?
A. They are reproduced. B. They are randomly organized.
C. They are free from human involvement. D. They are likely mistaken for real documents.
31. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about concerning WE-FORGE?
A. Its public response. B. Its market potential.
C. Its information safety. D. Its planned expansion.
D
Is text-messaging driving us apart? These days, we talk to each other a lot with our thumbs — sending six billion text messages a day, and likely a few billion more on services like WhatsApp.
But some worry that so much messaging leads to less communication. For instance, when hanging out with friends, we’d be texting secretively at the same time, pretending to maintain eye contact but mentally somewhere else.
New technologies often upset the way we relate to one another, of course. But such division caused by texting has a strong echo in the arguments we had over the telephone a hundred years ago. The small device gave us a new way to contact one another and quickly promote new forms of socializing. Callers arranged regular “visiting” calls, dialing remote family to catch up on news.
Soon, though, social critics thought it would be so easy to talk that we’d never leave each other alone. Others worried that the telephone sped up life, demanding instant reactions. The use of the telephone gave little room for reflection. It produced a craziness in the ordinary concerns of life which didn’t make for domestic happiness. “We shall soon be nothing but transparent piles of jelly (果冻) to each other,” a London writer moaned in 1897.
However, nowadays the telephone call seems like a throwback to a gentler era. When Jenna Birch, a communication professor at the University of Iowa, started dating a man who insisted on calling her on the phone, she found it warm and delightful. So she doesn’t think the shift to texting has degraded our interactions. According to her study, teenagers who text the most are also those who spend the most time face to face with friends. Communication, it seems, brings more communication, and — as she argues — just because talk happens in text doesn’t mean it’s not meaningful.
Michéle Martin of Carleton University, thinks we’re living through a replay of the telephone, where the things that made it valuable — instant communications — are the same that made it annoying. “People believe they are liberated because they can bring the mobile phone everywhere,” Martin says. “But at the same time, they are slaves to it.”
32. What’s the function of the first paragraph?
A. To issue a warning. B. To describe a scene.
C. To offer an argument. D. To introduce the topic.
33. Why does the author talk about the telephone?
A. To prove the telephone appeared earlier.
B. To show texting raises similar concerns.
C. To predict texting will replace the telephone.
D. To emphasize the telephone affected daily life more.
34. How is the text mainly developed?
A. By listing data. B. By presenting findings.
C. By quoting experts. D. By making comparisons.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Gone with the Wind, Dear Texting B. Oh, Telephone, a Tale of Two Sides
C. Life is Too Short for So Many Texting D. Oh My God! We’ve Been Here Before

Walking is becoming a hot research topic among health scientists. It’s arguably the most accessible form of exercise available to us and mounting research shows it’s good for health. 36 Another study from that year found that hitting 10,000 steps a day lowers your risk of heart disease.
37 In terms of burning calories and weight loss more generally, the research unsurprisingly shows that walking is less effective than more intense forms of exercise, like running or weightlifting. The amount of calories you can burn depends on a number of factors, but the average person gets through a modest 250 calories walking for an hour at a moderate, unstrained pace.
There are ways to step up your walking, of course. 38 The journal Obesity reports that out of people on a long-term weight-loss programme, the ones who lost more than 10 percent of their starting weight were clocking 10,000 steps a day at the 6-, 12-and 18-month intervals. You have to keep it up, in other words.
Next, pick up the pace. 39 Exercise scientists class slow walking as light exercise, but increase your efforts and it becomes moderate exercise, which is better for your heart, lungs and muscles. Experts usually suggest that a pace of 5 km / h is moderate.
Anything else you can do to make the walk harder will also increase the number of calories you burn. Swinging or pumping your arms is a good example. 40
A. So is walking on uneven land or up hills.
B. Walking can boost the results of calorie restriction.
C. You can also walk off extra body weight — to an extent.
D. Adding short jogging bursts during walks may boost calorie burning.
E. The most obvious is distance — walk further and you’ll burn more calories.
F. Apparently, there’s a big difference between a gentle wander and a purposeful walk.
G. Walking three times a week nearly halves the recurrence of back pain according to research published in 2024.

I came to England from Ethiopia three years ago to study for a biochemistry degree at Imperial College London. But I soon found myself 41 in a lonely routine.

Though its original Chinatown in Lower Manhattan is the most well-known, New York City is actually home to nine 56 (office) Chinatowns spread across its five boroughs, each reflecting the rich regional 57 (diverse) of Chinese cuisine.
In the 1870s, the city’s first Chinatown took root when Chinese immigrants arrived either from China or the US’s West Coast. Early 58 (business) were mostly rice shops and teahouses, but by the early 1900s, full-service restaurants emerged. By the mid-20th Century, Chinese food, in all its glorious forms, had become as associated 59 New York City as the New York slice.
Among the new generation carrying this legacy forward is chef Calvin Eng, the owner of Bonnie’s, 60 Cantonese American restaurant in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, which has been praised for its inventive interpretations of Cantonese cuisine. Eng 61 (grow) up in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, learning to cook the food of Guangdong from his mother, tasting Cantonese food made by his grandparents each weekend, 62 sometimes getting his Cantonese fix at a variety of New York’s Chinatowns.
Unlike other styles, Cantonese food is known for its lightness and simplicity, 63 (emphasize) fresh ingredients, particularly seafood, a reflection of the region’s coastal geography. “Cantonese food is 64 (remarkable) low on acid and heat,” Eng explains. “We use minimal ingredients that allow the main ingredients 65 (shine).”

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。
On the afternoon of my eighteenth birthday, I was driving my dad’s old car around town, feeling absolutely free and excited. The sun was shining, and everything felt perfect. As I made a turn a bit too quickly, the worst thing happened. There was a loud, sharp sound of metal scraping (刮擦) against metal. My heart jumped into my throat — I had sideswiped a car parked by the pavement.
I stopped the car, my hands shaking on the wheel. I looked around nervously. The street was completely empty; no one had seen the accident. A powerful thought rushed into my head: “Just drive away. No one will ever know.” The car I hit was a beautiful, brand-new Mercedes, and the scratch along its door was long and deep. My own car only had a small bump. Panic filled me. I had worked hard to save money for my first semester’s college books, and I knew that money would be wiped out by this repair. The temptation to escape was overwhelming.
But then, I pictured my father’s serious face. He had always taught me that taking responsibility for your actions was what defined a person. With a heart that felt like a heavy stone, I pulled over behind the Mercedes. I found a notebook and a pen in my backpack. My hands were trembling so much that the writing was messy. I wrote down my name, my phone number, my address, and a short apology. I tore out the page, walked back to the Mercedes, and carefully put the note under its windshield wiper. Driving home, I was consumed with fear, already imagining the angry phone call and the financial trouble that would follow me to college.
The call came that evening. A woman’s voice, calm and steady, asked for me, “This is Mrs. Gable,” she said. “I’m calling about the note you left on my car.” I prepared for the worst, and my apology tumbled out in a rushed, nervous stream, sure she was about to demand a huge payment.
