To write about food, we can be reporting on deforestation for palm oil production, the animal welfare conditions in industrial meat-processing, etc. But for readers, it will all come back to the grocery store, the kitchen, and the menu they're faced with at a restaurant. How do we navigate this field which includes loss of biodiversity, greedy businessmen, climate change—without overwhelming but instead empowering and encouraging readers?
As an essayist, a cultural critic and food writer, at the end of the day, I am trying to attract my readers to consider what they eat. It requires that I involve and insert myself into this human dilemma. After all, I have to eat too.
I once wrote that in order to trust someone on the subject of food, I need to know about their eating history and appetites. This isn't because I want to measure my own appetite against theirs to ensure we line up, but because it provides significant context: What purpose does food serve in your life?I want to know, so that I can understand why you're choosing to take it as a focus, whether in a writing career or just one essay.
I grew up on Long Island, spent years in Brooklyn, and now live in San Juan, Puerto Rico. My upbringing consisted of all the Italian, Chinese, Japanese, and Greek food one might imagine a kid just outside New York City would eat, plus Puerto Rican food influenced by my paternal grandmother's heritage.
My eating biography includes a lot of experiences—as eater, as server, as cook—and a commitment to what tastes good. All of these are useful knowledge for my perspective, and it's why there is a touch of memoir threaded throughout what is seemingly a cultural history: If I could grow up eating everything, how did I end up with all these ethical concerns and commitments around the food system?
I take the ordinary, the everyday and the ancestral (祖先的) with me when I write about how we have eaten for the past 50 years, and how we could eat in the future. How do I eat and what do I cook when I feel the weight of all these on my shoulders?
24.What does the author's writing mainly focus on?
A.The influence of human diet.
B.The nutritional value of food.
C.The economic impact of food production.
D.The effectiveness of the actions of the local government.
25.Why does the author need to know her readers' appetites?
A.To make comparisons. B.To list examples.
C.To understand their background. D.To better know herself.
26.What is the author mainly discussing in paragraph 4?
A.Her multicultural identity. B.Her rich experiences with food.
C.Her fascination with special foods. D.Her understanding of foreign foods.
27.What does the author convey about the future diet?
A.It will empower humans.
B.It will be influenced by the past.
C.It will become less diverse.
D.It will be mainly based on personal preference.
C
Getting into arguments with strangers online or family members at the dinner table can feel a bit like debating with a brick wall. This may be a tough task.
To study the problem, the team from Ohio State, Stanford University, and Johns Hopkins University surveyed 1,261 Americans online. All of the participants read an article about a fictional school that did not have adequate water. Group one read an article that only gave reasons why the school should merge (合并) with another that has better water. Group two read an article that only gave reasons for the schools staying separate and hoping for other solutions to the problem. Group three was the control group that read all of the arguments for the schools merging and staying separate.
They found that the majority of the two groups who only read the pro-merging or anti-merging arguments still believed that they had enough information to make a good decision about what to do. Most said that they would follow the recommendations in the article they read. About 55 percent of the control group recommended the school merge. The participants who had half of the information also said that they thought most other people would make the same decision they did.
The team calls this belief that we are correct—even when we don't have all of the information—the illusion of information adequacy. Fletcher, the leading author describes the illusion of information adequacy as, “The less that our brain knows, the more confident it is that it knows all it needs to know. This makes us prone to think that we have all the crucial facts about a decision, leaping to confident conclusions and decisive judgments, when we are missing necessary information.”
The team found that some of those participants were willing to change their minds about their decision—once they had all the facts. The mix of opinions after hearing both sides was comparable to the control group—about 55 percent to 45 percent.
According to Fletcher, one of the best ways to fight the illusion of information adequacy when disagreeing with someone is to stop and ask, “Is there something that I'm missing that would help me see their perspective and understand their position better?”
28.How does the author introduce the topic of the text?
A.By introducing a similar theory. B.By mentioning a previous study.
C.By describing daily experiences. D.By explaining a term professionally.
29.What can be inferred from the study?
A.Mistakes mainly rises from inadequate information.
B.The participants were confident of their decision.
C.Personal subjective understanding tends to be ignored in groups.
D.The participants drew different conclusions even if with enough information.
30.What does the text suggest to avoid misunderstanding or conflicts?
A.Changing the topics of the conversation.
B.Getting more related information.
C.Pretending to know all the information.
D.Ignoring the arguments of the other person.
31.What is the best title for the text?
A.What plays a big role in decisive judgments
B.Where the confidence in judgments comes from
C.Why people insist they're correct without all the facts
D.How people fight the illusion of information adequacy
D
The natural world teems with animals that move in groups, from flocks of birds to packs of wolves to schools of fish. But ants, like humans, are special: animals that routinely travel in congested (拥挤的), two-way traffic. When ants find food sources, many species will lay down a chemical trail for other ants from their colony to follow. These trails can fill up quickly and involve hundreds of ants per minute.
To see how ants avoid congestion, scientists studied them as they moved across a bridge to gather food and return it to the nest. To control ant density (密度), the scientists varied the width of the bridge among 5 millimeters, 10 millimeters and 20 millimeters and the number of ants from 400 to 25,600.
Co-author Sebastien Motsch, an associate professor in Arizona State University's School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences, specializing in studying how individuals interact and self-organize without a central authority to direct them, said the ants changed their speed and behavior to avoid congestion when getting into the densest traffic. “Surprisingly, it appeared that no traffic jam occurred. They always managed to keep flowing somehow.”
Unlike human drivers jockeying for position on the road, ant “commuters” cooperate to accomplish a mutually beneficial goal, so optimizing their ability to forage (觅食) while avoiding congestion is more a survival skill than convenience or altruism.
Understanding how ants manage to keep on trucking through the worst jams could have widespread applications beyond traffic engineering, such as in fields involving dense flows of agents, particles or packets of information.
Ants in general appear to share beneficial reinforcement mechanisms that help them adapt to situations involving masses of bodies. Carpenter ants spread out to avoid trampling each other when trying to escape through a narrow door. Fire ants know how to stay out of each other's way during construction projects. Garden ants excel at avoiding bottlenecks.
Motsch and his colleagues next hope to discover the mechanisms behind the ants' self-regulation. But doing so could require tracking each ant's behavior individually. “This kind of tracking is possible,” Motsch said, “but in an environment where it's so crowded, it's really challenging.”
32.How did scientists study ants' traffic behavior?
A.By referring to the computer modeling in the lab.
B.By observing how ants communicate with each other.
C.By comparing the behavior of different species of ants.
D.By varying the number of ants and the width of a bridge.
33.What does the underlined word “jockeying” in paragraph 4 probably mean?
A.Waiting. B.Fighting. C.Searching. D.Applying.
34.What does paragraph 5 mainly show?
A.Ants' behavior in natural habitats.
B.The impact of traffic jams on wildlife.
C.Applications of ants' traffic management.
D.Differences between ants and human traffic.
35.What is a key factor in ants' avoiding traffic jams?
A.Their tiny size.
B.Their competitive nature.
C.Their reliance on a central authority.
D.Their cooperation to achieve a common goal.

Being in the sun is hard work—or so your brain and body seem to think. Even when you're just relaxing on a lawn chair by the pool or at the beach, you may notice you feel extra sleepy after being outside in the sun for hours. Why does this happen? 36
Your body is working hard to regulate its temperature. Even if you are in a lying position by the pool, your body is constantly working to decrease its temperature to a normal level when you're out in the heat. 37 You're breathing faster, your heart rate is increasing and you're sweating more. These all require extra energy from your body, which can leave you feeling tired.
38 When you're hanging out by the pool or at the beach, this may give you the opportunity to finally slow down and unwind from stress. Your body may recognize that it lacks sleep and can finally recover and relax, which can make you feel sleepy.
So, it's time to say goodbye to sunbath? 39 In fact, being in the sun can be quite good for you—if you use it properly. For example, sun exposure helps your body produce vitamin D, which is key for the immune system and bone health. 40 The problem is that we're not protecting our skin, not staying hydrated and being exposed to too much sun. As with anything, too much of a good thing can be bad.
A.Your body is releasing built-up stress.
B.Here are some reasons why you can get sunburnt.
C.Also sunshine has been shown to boost your mood.
D.We talked to doctors about why the sun can make us feel tired.
E.These are some symptoms of heat exhaustion you're experiencing.
F.There are three things your body is doing to try to cool itself down.
G.None of these is meant to suggest that you should stay away from the sun's rays.

When I was in elementary school, I wasn't very good at sports. I was always the last to be picked for teams, and I never won a race. I thought being slow and weak made me a failure. But one day, my P. E. teacher, Mr Harris, said something that changed my mind. He had been watching me struggle during a running drill, and after the class, he came over to talk to me.
“You may not be the fastest,” he said,“but you have something even more important. You don't give up.” I didn't really understand what he meant at the time. How could not quitting be better than winning?In my mind, if you weren't first, then you lost. But Mr Harris kept encouraging me. He told me that winning wasn't everything and that sometimes trying hard and not giving up was even more valuable.
At first, I didn't believe him, but then he suggested I start practicing a little every day after school.“Don't focus on becoming the fastest,” he said.“Just focus on improving, even if it's a little bit each day.” I decided to give it a try, although I wasn't sure it would make a difference. I began running around the track after school, one lap, then two, slowly increasing my endurance. Over the next few weeks, I noticed small changes. I could run longer without getting tired, and I was improving, even if I wasn't winning yet.
As the school's annual race day approached, I wondered if I should sign up. I still wasn't fast enough to win, but Mr Harris encouraged me once more. “The race isn't about being first,” he reminded me. “It's about showing what you can do when you don't give up. That's real success.”

M:Last week, a portrait of mathematician Alan Turing became the first artwork created by a humanoid robot to be sold, fetching an impressive$1.08 million in New York. The portrait of Turing was created by Ai-Da, an AI-powered robot introduced in 2019 by British art specialist Aidan Meller. It was named after Ada Lovelace, the woman thought by many to be the world's first computer programmer. The work honors Alan Turing, the pioneering mathematician whose work laid the foundation for modern computing and artificial intelligence.
Although the work was initially estimated to fetch up to $180,000, a series of bids drove the price over$1 million. The work was exhibited in 2024 during the AI for Good Global Summit in Geneva. The portrait of Turing not only honors his legacy but also invites us to think about how technology is reshaping human life and creativity.

第四部分 写作
第一节
One possible version:
What kids are doing in their spare time
Of the 10,000 kids that were interviewed, all the boys and girls stated that they enjoy watching TV or videos in their spare time. The second most popular activity, attracting 80% of boys and 60% of girls, is playing electronic or computer games.
While girls rates activities such as art and craft highly—just under 60% responded that they enjoy these—only 35% of boys choose creative pastimes. Bike riding, on the other hand, is almost as popular as electronic or computer games among boys and surprisingly, almost 60% of girls said that they enjoy it, too. Skateboarding is relatively less popular among both boys and girls, although it still attracts 38% of boys and 25% of girls.
It is clear from the data that inactive pursuits are far more popular than active ones. I suggest that we pay more attention to active programs.
第二节
One possible version:
A few days later, I signed up for the race. On the race day, I stood nervously at the starting line, surrounded by faster runners. As expected, when the race started, the others sped ahead of me. About halfway through the course, one of the fastest runners tripped and fell. Without thinking, I stopped running and helped him get back on his feet. “Keep going, don't worry about me,” he said, but I stayed with him. We crossed the finish line together, much slower than everyone else, but we finished side by side.
After the race, I went to see Mr Harris. He smiled when he saw me and said,“What you did today was more important than winning.”At first, I didn't understand. I didn't win the race, after all. But he explained, “You helped someone, and that's something far greater than crossing the finish line first.” At that moment, I realized he was right. The race wasn't just about speed; it was about determination and compassion. That day, I learned that real success comes from the heart, not from a gold medal.
