Dear Mr. Black,
I am Li Hua. I am glad to hear about the plan to introduce the educational robot Teacher Mike, and I am fully in favor of it.
Firstly, Teacher Mike can provide personalized tutoring, helping us solve problems anytime. Secondly, it can create more engaging activities, such as quizzes and games, which can improve our enthusiasm for learning. In my opinion, most of our students are bound to benefit from it. My suggestion is that we should have a trial run first to collect students’ feedback for further improvement.
Looking forward to its arrival.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

That evening, Lily spread the phoenix painting on the desk. As she picked up the brush, she remembered what the judges had said, which made her determined to show the real emotion in the painting. She carefully added strokes that represented her struggles with college applications and exams. The phoenix, which she had once thought was a failure, now seemed to come alive with the emotions she had integrated into it. She worked late into the night, losing track of time as she poured her heart into the artwork.
Weeks later, Lily submitted the revised painting to a local youth exhibition without much expectation. What she didn’t expect was that her painting received a lot of praise at the exhibition. Many people were touched by the raw emotion and depth in the phoenix. Lily felt a surge of excitement and confidence as she realized that her hard work had paid off. She realized that the journey of art was not just about creating perfect pieces, but about expressing herself and growing through challenges.

From retirement planning to investment management, Adams Wealth Partners provides a range of solutions that are tailored to individual circumstances and goals.
Nashville Lifestyles (NL): Tell us about your “Women and Wealth” series.
David Adams (DA): We are in our 3rd year of hosting amazing groups of women from all different industries and backgrounds and a variety of excellent speakers. It’s an opportunity for women to learn about and discuss important and sensitive topics around wealth.

Our Women & Wealth series was created as a way to address these specific needs. It’s not just about investing — it’s about empowering women to make informed decisions, build wealth, and prepare for retirement.
NL: What are the top two or three things you discuss there?
DA: Our topics include emotions surrounding money, protecting your family’s legacy, nutrition and health coaching, how to teach your children about money, and much more.
NL: I haven’t heard of another financial planning company doing this. How can women get involved?
DA: This initiative gives us great fulfillment to see women connecting with others and gaining confidence around these topics. We host quarterly events, with our next one coming up in May! To receive an invite and stay updated on future events email Taylor@Adams Wealth Partners.com.

Ghanaian photojournalist Paul Ninson was thrilled — and surprised.
When he came to New York to study photography five years ago, he found a rich collection of images of life in Africa, past and present, in the city’s libraries, galleries and museums. Here he was thousands of miles from Ghana surrounded by more visual history of Africa than he had ever seen back home.
That led to an idea: create a library of photobooks in Ghana, which allows people to learn about their own history and gives them the tools to tell new stories of the continent.
This idea has been realized with the creation of the Dikan Center in Accra, Ghana’s capital. Dikan means “take the lead” in the Akan language.
To create the center, Ninson travelled around New York City for books to ship to Ghana. He searched secondhand stores on the Lower East Side, engaged in online bidding wars and reached out to publishers and galleries, some of whom donated hundreds of materials. He maxed out his credit cards and lined his apartment walls with books, using Uber and U-Haul trucks to transport the books to storage units he rented across the city.
He managed to amass more than 30,000 volumes —— mainly about photography filmmaking, but also issues of publications like National Geographic dating back to the early 1940s. Ninson had additional support from his friend and collaborator, Brandon Stanton, who started a GoFundMe that raised over $ 1.2 million for the founding of Dikan.
In December 2022, the Dikan Center was opened. In a former residence that was renovated (翻新) to house the center, anyone is welcome to sit with the African story as long as they’d like.
Michael Itkoff, a supporter of Ninson and the Dikan Center from the start, says photobooks offer a different visual experience in today’s world, which is often focused on the volume and speed of images available online. “The photobook allows for an intimate and more slowed down — and I would say elegant —— experience of visuals,” says Itkoff.
24. What is Ninson’s purpose of creating the Dikan Center?
A. To bring the African story home.
B. To change people’s attitude to Africa.
C. To pursue his passion for photography.
D. To create a sharing space for book-lovers.
25. What does paragraph 5 mainly focus on?
A. Ninson’s good taste in books.
B. The assistance Ninson has received.
C. Efforts made in creating Dikan Center.
D. Wide sources of books in Dikan Center.
26. How would Itkoff describe the experience of reading photobooks?
A. An ideal tool for art education.
B. An escape from a fast-paced life.
C. A dive into the richness of stories.
D. A beautiful encounter with visuals.
27. What is the text mainly about?
A. The realization of a big dream. B. The influence of a social trend.
C. The development of photobooks. D. The growth of a genius photographer.
C
At 6 a. m. in an English village, hundreds of pinkish white sows are waking up for breakfast. But first, they have to get their pictures taken. As each pig squeezes into her feeding area, a tiny camera snaps a photo of her face. And in less than 1 second, an artificial intelligence system identifies her based on facial features. Armed with that information, the AI orders a customized meal to shoot into the trough (食槽).
Meanwhile, the system continues to analyze her photo, looking for negative signs in her facial expression that she might be in pain, sick, or in emotional distress. If it finds any, it sends an immediate alert to the farmer — the guy enjoying a morning coffee over in the next room.
These hungry piggies are the testers of Intellipig, a system being developed by scientists to deal with a fundamental problem in animal welfare: we human beings are just not the best at understanding how animals are feeling.
Tools like Intellipig could usher in (开启) a new era of caring for animals that gives higher priority to their health, welfare, and protection, says Melvyn Smith, an engineer leading the design of the Intellipig system. There are indications that they could go even further. Eventually, AI might even outshine humans in interpreting a range of more complex emotions like happiness, frustration, or fear, he says — feelings that are equally important to understand if we are to give animals the best possible lives.
But like most scientists considering the powers of AI, animal behavior researchers worry about putting too much stock in machines, especially when animal welfare is at risk. “Maybe a machine will end up being better than us; I don’t know.” says Emma Baxter, an animal behavior scientist. “I hope there’s room for experts, to make sure that the AI is actually doing what it says it is.”
28. What can the Intellipig system do automatically?
A. Monitor pigs’ well-being. B. Clean pigs’ living spaces.
C. Deliver medical services to pigs. D. Provide standardized diets for pigs.
29. What is Melvyn Smith’s attitude towards AI’s role in animal care?
A. Concerned. B. Positive.
C. Cautious. D. Skeptical.
30. What approach does Emma Baxter support when it comes to AI and animal care?
A. Banning the use of AI. B. Restricting AI to basic tasks.
C. Keeping professionals involved. D. Minimizing human intervention.
31. What is the best title for the text?
A. Intellipig: AI Provides 24/7 Animal Care
B. Intellipig: AI Can Understand Animal Speech
C. Intellipig: AI Replaces Farmers in Animal Care
D. Intellipig: AI Assists in Detecting Animal welfare
D
When it comes to problem-solving, virtually everyone can use either insightful or analytical methods, but many people tend to use one rather than the other. Mathematician Roger Penrose, for example, can obviously think analytically but seems to be naturally insightful. “I do most of my thinking in visual terms rather than writing down equations (方程式),” he once said in an interview.
In the 2010s Brian Erickson, then a doctoral student at Drexel University, and his colleagues demonstrated that people’s tendency toward insightful or analytical thinking is evident during “resting-state” brain activity — while a person relaxes with no task to perform or expectation about what is to come. Erickson recorded people’s resting-state EEGs (脑电图) and then, weeks later, tasked the same participants with solving a series of puzzles. The astonishing result: a few minutes of EEG predicted, up to seven weeks in advance, whether a person would solve the puzzles mostly insightfully or analytically. Our dominant thinking style is stable over time.
The subjects who relied mostly on insight had greater resting-state activity at the back of the brain, whereas the analytical subjects had greater activity in frontal areas. The frontal areas, where a person’s executive processes are centered, organize activity in the rest of the brain. These executive processes enable people to think in a focused and strategic way, but they can also restrict creativity by limiting thought to straightforward plans, just as a horse’s blinders block out distractions that would lead it to wander from its path. When activity in this region is relatively low, as it was for the insightful subjects, posterior (后部) areas can “go rogue,” sometimes resulting in aha! moments.
Although individuals may tend toward more analytical or insightful thinking, we aren’t locked into one or the other. Our thinking style can shift, at least temporarily, to the other strategy. This flexibility is key to making the best possible use of both creativity and logic in our decision-making. By using the right strategy at the right time, we can address challenges more effectively, enhancing our ability to think critically and innovatively.
32. What does the example of Roger Penrose illustrate?
A. Visual images help solve a problem.
B. Scientists favor an insightful solution.
C. Note-taking negatively affects thinking.
D. People have a preferred way of thinking.
33. What did Brian Erickson’s study reveal about resting-state brain activity?
A. It predicts our future growth.
B. It reflects our thinking ability.
C. It indicates our dominant thinking style.
D. It determines our problem-solving speed.
34. What does the underlined expression “go rogue” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Get stuck. B. Run wild. C. Grow mature. D. Become inactive.
35. What advice does the author give in the last paragraph?
A. Follow your natural thinking style.
B. Adjust your thinking style as needed.
C. Reflect on your thinking style regularly.
D. Limit your analytical thinking to stay creative.

My volunteer journey began during a summer break when I joined a local organization supporting underprivileged (贫苦的) children. Initially, I viewed it as a way to spend my free time contributing to a good cause. 36
At first, I was shocked by the challenges these children faced — poverty, lack of education, and emotional pain. 37 However, as I spent more time with them, I started to understand their resilience (适应力) and strength, which inspired me to give my best effort. That marked the beginning of a deep and lasting connection.
38 One such instance occurred when I was helping a young girl, Maria, with her challenging subject math. After weeks of working together, I saw a breakthrough as I taught a difficult concept. The joy in her eyes was indescribable. It was then that I realized the power of patience and support. 39 I was responsible for coordinating (协调) a group of volunteers, which taught me leadership and teamwork skills. Those moments shaped my approach to volunteering and motivated me to seek more opportunities to serve.
The volunteer experience did more than provide valuable skills — it shifted my priorities and life goals. Before that, I had been focused on academic success and individual achievements. 40 I developed a passion for social work and community service, and I now try to integrate these into my future career.
A. In spite of my intentions, I felt unprepared to help truly.
B. Facing unexpected challenges helped me become more appreciative.
C. Another memorable moment was during a community event we organized.
D. Several critical moments made my volunteer experience truly life-changing.
E. However, the experience taught me there is more to life than those things.
F. Little did I know the experience would greatly transform my outlook on life.
G. The stories demonstrated the influence volunteering can have on individual growth.

Not long ago, traveling in China meant racing against the clock. Overnight trains, sunrise hikes, and five scenic spots before lunch 56 (regard) as badges (勋章) of honor. Today, that mindset is being quietly overturned.
Across China, “slow travel” is emerging as a defining trend, particularly among Gen Z. Instead of using every hour 57 the full, travelers are choosing fewer destinations, longer 58 (stay) and experiences that emphasize immersion over mileage.
According to a 2025 survey, 55.3 percent of young respondents said they now prefer “immersive slow travel”. 59 shift is visible in both behavior and business. Once — popular “special — forces — style tourism” — 60 travelers rush through cities to maximize check — ins — has given way to 61 social media jokingly calls “low — consumption travel”. The idea is simple: minimal physical strain, maximum 62 (emotion) return.
Online data shows that searches for “gentle adventures” rocket in 2025, with interest in low — impact rafting up 135 percent, slower, 63 (control) bungee experiences up 65 percent, and “elevator — assisted mountain climbing” up more than 80 percent.
These are not just internet jokes. Operators have redesigned attractions to match the new pace. On Foshan’s Xiqiao Mountain, visitors can try a modified bungee jump that 64 (lower) participants gently instead of dropping them at full speed. In river valleys, “lying — flat rafting” lets travelers float downstream under blue skies, 65 (do) little more than drifting and daydreaming.
In slowing down, young Chinese travelers are redefining what it means to go somewhere.

67.阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Lily stared at the wrinkled rejection letter from the national art competition, her watercolor phoenix (凤凰) lying untouched beside her. As a senior three student struggling with college application stress and endless exams, she’d poured every ounce of frustration and hidden hope into the artwork — its blazing flames a metaphor for her desire to rise above overwhelming academic pressure. Yet the letter’s cold judgment crushed her: “Looks seemingly flawless (完美的), yet lacks artistic expression, depth and meaning.” In that moment, her confidence fell apart, the phoenix’s fire fading as sharply as her own spirit.
For weeks, Lily locked her paintbrushes away, convinced her lifelong passion for art was a meaningless distraction from her college dreams. The studio she once frequented became a place of shame; she would quicken her pace whenever she passed, unable to face the reminder of her failure.
One afternoon after self-study, Lily entered the classroom to find a book on her desk, left by her art teacher Ms. Hale. Put inside was a short note: “Growth isn’t about never falling — it’s about learning to rise, just like your phoenix.” Curiosity overcame her despair as she leafed through the pages, discovering an article titled Reflections on Reflecting. Its words struck a chord: “Self-awareness grows when we face our doubts, not flee from them.”
As Lily re-read the note and article, she realized the judges’ words weren’t disapproval of her talent, but a challenge to dig deeper. In her pursuit of a “flawless” victory symbol, she had polished away the raw edges of her own struggle, leaving the phoenix technically impressive but emotionally distant. With renewed purpose, slowly, she took out her paintbrushes from the drawer. Instead of starting a new piece immediately, she felt a strong urge to revisit the phoenix — the very symbol of her failure, ready to fill it with the raw, authentic emotion she’d hidden before — rising, like her phoenix, from the ashes of self-doubt.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
That evening, Lily spread the phoenix painting on the desk. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Weeks later, Lily submitted the revised painting to a local youth exhibition without much expectation._______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
