Transform lives — Become an Ollie Coach!
Despite the very best efforts of our education system, it is struggling to cope with fully supporting the emotional wellbeing of our children. Have you ever felt that you would love to help, but were powerless to act? Well, here’s your opportunity to do something positive. By training to become a coach in the Ollie School, you could be an inspirational force in children’s emotional wellbeing.
Comprehensive training
The Ollie School plans to build an army of coaches who can make the world a better place, one child at a time. Ollie Coaching is a holistic (整体的) approach that leads all our youngsters to a place where they can live well in the chaos of modern living.
Learn with flexibility
So many schools are battling to provide an appropriate mental health environment with limited effect. That’s why Alison Knowles, who was challenged throughout her life with an inability to read, decided to set up the Ollie School. The Ollie approach is all about empowering children to seek solutions and take control of their emotions, rather than being controlled by them. It is also about personalization and identifying which technique will work with each individual child — no one-size-fits-all approach here.
License to help
The Ollie School graduates are awarded a certified qualification in NLP, and a license to work as an Ollie Coach. If helping children and their families to be more emotionally strong appeals to you, contact Ollie School to find out more. Courses are a combination of online and in-person, offering the best of both worlds, with a limited number of trainees to maximize learning potential. Visit ollieandhissuperpowers.com for more!
1. Why does the author write the passage?
A. To train coaches. B. To introduce a trend.
C. To comfort parents. D. To advertise a school.
2. What is an advantage of the Ollie approach?

As evening falls, crowds begin gathering at Sensoryscape, a tourist site on the island resort of Sentosa in Singapore. With music filling the air, five AI-powered robot dogs dance to the rhythm. They wave, jump, and roll on the ground. After the performance, they interact and “chat” with visitors. Children excitedly run around them, while adults use their phones to capture photos and videos.
From April 18 to May 17, the Singapore Tourism Board and the Chinese travel platform Mafengwo jointly launched a pilot AI robot dog service at Sentosa Wildlife Reserve in Singapore. Addison Goh, divisional director of the Business and Experience Development Division at Sentosa Development Corporation, says, “The robot dogs are probably busier than I am,” adding that every day, they conduct guided tours, perform multiple dance shows, and check the grounds to interact with visitors.
More importantly, the robot dogs are powered by AI models. Visitors can not only ask them for directions, but also receive personalized recommendations. Families may be guided to family-friendly restaurants, while younger visitors are offered suggestions for photography attractions and social media-worthy spots.
The Singapore Tourism Board describes the pilot project as “an exciting step toward reimagining visitor experiences through technology and innovation”. In recent years, Singapore has been actively promoting its “Smart Nation” initiative, and the tourism sector has become a major testing ground for AI applications. Unlike traditional smart tourism solutions that focus mainly on online bookings, digital payments or backend data management, these AI robot dogs emphasize the interactive experience of AI in real-world settings.
From China to Singapore, these robot dogs are bringing the warmth of technology to visitors from around the world. Rather than just cold machines or lines of code, they are gradually becoming companions that tourists can touch, communicate with, and even share part of their journeys with.
4. What do Addison Goh’s words show about the AI robot dogs?
A. They are multi-functional. B. They work long hours.
C. They are of cultural value. D. They cause mixed feelings.
5. How are the AI robot dogs different from traditional smart tourism solutions?
A. They evaluate bookings. B. They have advanced codes.
C. They promote innovation. D. They highlight interaction.
6. What is the author’s attitude towards the AI robot dogs?
A. Doubtful. B. Approving. C. Cautious. D. Unclear.
7. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Robot Dogs Become Human Companions
B. Singapore’s Smart Tourism Wins Applause
C. AI Robot Dogs Redefine Tourist Experience
D. A New AI Service Is Launched in Singapore
【答案】4. A 5. D 6. B 7. C
【解析】
【导语】文章介绍新加坡试点AI机器狗文旅服务,其互动优势重塑游客游玩体验。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Addison Goh, divisional director of the Business and Experience Development Division at Sentosa Development Corporation, says, “The robot dogs are probably busier than I am,” adding that every day, they conduct guided tours, perform multiple dance shows, and check the grounds to interact with visitors.(圣淘沙发展局业务与体验发展部部门主管吴加东称:“机器狗可能比我还忙”,并补充它们每日负责导览、多场舞蹈表演、园区巡查以及和游客互动。)”可知,机器狗兼具多种功能。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“Unlike traditional smart tourism solutions that focus mainly on online bookings, digital payments or backend data management, these AI robot dogs emphasize the interactive experience of AI in real-world settings.(传统智慧旅游方案侧重线上预订、数字支付、后台数据管理,而AI机器狗着重线下实景的人工智能互动体验。)”可知,二者区别在于机器狗突出互动。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中“From China to Singapore, these robot dogs are bringing the warmth of technology to visitors from around the world. Rather than just cold machines or lines of code, they are gradually becoming companions that tourists can touch, communicate with, and even share part of their journeys with.(从中国到新加坡,这些机器狗正将科技的温情带给来自世界各地的游客。它们不再只是冰冷的器械或是一串串代码,而是渐渐化作可供游客触摸、互动交流,甚至相伴走过一段旅途的伙伴。)”可知,作者对此持认可、赞同的态度。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是根据第四段中“The Singapore Tourism Board describes the pilot project as “an exciting step toward reimagining visitor experiences through technology and innovation”.(新加坡旅游局称该试点项目是借助科技创新重塑游客体验的令人振奋的一步。)”可知,全文围绕AI机器狗革新旅游体验展开,C选项“AI Robot Dogs Redefine Tourist Experience(AI机器狗重新定义游客体验)”最贴合核心主旨,适合用作标题。

From its frozen surface, Antarctica seems like a place unsuited for life. But just offshore, the depths of the Southern Ocean tell a different story. Hundreds of feet below the surface, there are ice fish guarding their eggs and strange-looking crabs crawling among colorful sea stars. “It blows your mind,” says marine biologist Cristian Lagger. “At the bottom of the sea, Antarctica is a rich continent with many species, colors, and shapes.”
During a recent exploration, Lagger looked into those depths from the control room of the Schmidt Ocean Institute’s research ship, Falkor, as live video from its remotely operated vehicle, SuBastian, streamed on a monitor. His research team had reached a previously undocumented place on the ocean floor, where SuBastian explored a gently sloped area from a depth of more than 3,000 feet to about 1,000 feet. Lagger and his colleagues felt like astronauts exploring a new frontier.
The Southern Ocean plays an outsized role in the health of our planet by absorbing more human-caused carbon dioxide than any other ocean and balancing the climate through its currents and seasonal ice. But as a recent study notes, current carbon sink (碳汇) estimates are limited because “harsh conditions there make collecting good data difficult.” So, little of the seabed has been studied and much remains unknown. By exploring its deep reaches, Lagger and his team hope to discover new species and update carbon storage estimates.
Lagger believes data from this expedition will strengthen the case for designating more marine protected areas around Antarctica. “It is not only about preserving unique and largely untouched ecosystems,” he explains, “but about safeguarding the health of the Southern Ocean and its role in Earth’s systems.” As he points out: “What happens at the frozen edge now will not just stay there.”
8. What does Lagger think of the biodiversity of the Southern Ocean?
A. It’s amazing. B. It’s strange. C. It’s predictable. D. It’s declining.
9. How did Lagger and his team study the depths of the Southern Ocean?
A. By exploring a new frontier. B. By stopping at a sloped area.
C. By playing live video remotely. D. By observing from the ship.
10. Why is the Southern Ocean vital to our planet?
A. It limits carbon sink. B. It stores much carbon.
C. It protects new species. D. It balances seasonal ice.
11. What does Lagger imply in the last paragraph?
A. The frozen edge does not stay in a fixed place.
B. Data from this expedition safeguard Earth’s systems.
C. The health of the Southern Ocean affects our ecosystem.
D. Marine protected areas around Antarctica are strengthened.
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. B 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了科学家团队对南大洋深海区域的探索,阐述了南大洋对地球生态和气候的重要作用,以及此次科考探索的意义与价值。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段““It blows your mind,” says marine biologist Cristian Lagger. “At the bottom of the sea, Antarctica is a rich continent with many species, colors, and shapes.”(海洋生物学家克里斯蒂安・拉格尔说道:“这景象令人震撼不已。在海底,南极洲是一片生机丰饶的大陆,栖息着形形色色的物种,斑斓多姿、形态万千。”)”可知,Lagger认为南大洋的生物多样性令人惊叹。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“During a recent exploration, Lagger looked into those depths from the control room of the Schmidt Ocean Institute’s research ship, Falkor, as live video from its remotely operated vehicle, SuBastian, streamed on a monitor.(在最近的一次探索中,拉格在施密特海洋研究所的“福尔科”号科考船控制室中,通过监视器观看遥控潜水器传回的实时画面,观测深海区域)”可知,Lagger和团队通过在科考船上观测的方式研究南大洋深海。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“The Southern Ocean plays an outsized role in the health of our planet by absorbing more human-caused carbon dioxide than any other ocean and balancing the climate through its currents and seasonal ice.(南大洋对地球的健康至关重要,它吸收的人为产生的二氧化碳比其他任何海洋都多,并通过洋流和季节性冰层调节气候)”可知,南大洋能够储存大量碳,对地球至关重要。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“It is not only about preserving unique and largely untouched ecosystems, but about safeguarding the health of the Southern Ocean and its role in Earth’s systems. What happens at the frozen edge now will not just stay there.(这不仅关乎保护独特且基本未受侵扰的生态系统,更在于守护南大洋的生态健康,维护它在地球各类生态系统中承担的职能。这片冰封海域边缘当下发生的一切,影响绝不会止步于此。)”可知,文章提到保护独特且基本未受破坏的生态系统是为了守护南大洋的健康及其在地球系统中的作用,可推知,南大洋的健康状况会影响整个地球生态系统。

If you’re the parent of a child or teenager, chances are you’ve heard of social psychologist Jonathan Haidt, or his wildly influential book, The Anxious Generation. In sum, the book argues that the rise of smartphones and social media has “rewired” the brains of young people, leading to a mental health crisis. The book has undeniably had a significant impact. Many states in the U.S. are limiting the use of phones in schools by law.
Haidt’s latest work, The Amazing Generation, is a self-described “guide”. The first section of the book gives background information about everything from the rise of different kinds of media to explanations of “the attention economy”. This section also includes lots of alarming visuals, including one of my favorites, “Screen Time Calculator That You Can Use to Freak People Out.” “1 hour per day = 15 full days per year. 2 hours per day = 1 full month per year. Etc.” This is a page I wouldn’t mind seeing hung on classroom walls, including the college classrooms where I teach.
The second part of the book is a novel tracking the lives of six young people, their relationships to themselves and one another, and the various technologies that impact those interactions. It’s hard not to feel familiar when you read the part where heavy social media user Alex finally agrees to join his phoneless friend Jax at the skate park. We see Jax trying out different skating moves in the background, and by the end, falling onto the ground after another heroic attempt. Meanwhile, Alex has been scrolling his screen, first searching for skating tips, then watching world championship skating highlights.
What seems especially fascinating about The Amazing Generation is that it can get young people thinking more critically about the products that shape their everyday lives. The message of the book is very straightforward, and it feels like an important antidote to the daily pull and messaging of the online world.
12. What is the argument of The Anxious Generation?
A. Social media improves the brains of young people.
B. The digital use harms children’s mental well-being.
C. Parents ought to read more wildly influential books.
D. States should limit the use of smartphones in school.
13. What does the author’s favorite visual indicate?
A. Calculating screen time is difficult for people.
B. Visuals are suitable for classroom decorations.
C. It informs people of the rise of different media.
D. People unconsciously spend much screen time.
14. Why is the story of Jax and Alex mentioned?
A. To analyze why technology bonds people.
B. To encourage sports activities among friends.
C. To show how smartphones shape interactions.
D. To explain the importance of similar interests.
15. What does the underlined word “antidote” probably mean in the last paragraph?
A. Cure. B. Lesson. C. Role. D. Decision.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. C 15. A
【解析】
【导语】文章主要评述乔纳森·海特新书《了不起的一代》,指出其能帮助青少年反思数字技术对生活的过度影响。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“In sum, the book argues that the rise of smartphones and social media has ‘rewired’ the brains of young people, leading to a mental health crisis.(简而言之,该书主张智能手机和社交媒体的兴起已经‘重塑’了年轻人的大脑,进而引发了心理健康危机)”可知,《焦虑的一代》的核心论点是数字产品的使用损害了儿童的心理健康。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中““Screen Time Calculator That You Can Use to Freak People Out.” “1 hour per day = 15 full days per year. 2 hours per day = 1 full month per year. Etc.” This is a page I wouldn’t mind seeing hung on classroom walls, including the college classrooms where I teach.(“能让人们大吃一惊的屏幕时间计算器”——“每天1小时=每年15整天。每天2小时=每年整整一个月。以此类推。”我很乐意看到这一页被挂在教室墙上,包括我所任教的高校教室里。”)可知,作者最喜欢的这张图表旨在提醒人们不知不觉中耗费了大量屏幕时间。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“The second part of the book is a novel tracking the lives of six young people, their relationships to themselves and one another, and the various technologies that impact those interactions.(书的第二部分是一部小说,追踪六名年轻人的生活、他们与自身及彼此的关系,以及各种影响其互动的技术)”及后文Jax在滑板公园练习而Alex只顾刷屏的对比可知,提及二人的故事是为了展示智能手机如何塑造人际交往。
【15题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段中的“What seems especially fascinating about The Amazing Generation is that it can get young people thinking more critically about the products that shape their everyday lives. The message of the book is very straightforward, and it feels like an important antidote to the daily pull and messaging of the online world.(《了不起的一代》格外吸引人之处在于,它能促使年轻人以更批判的视角审视那些左右其日常生活的数码产品。这本书传递的观点浅显易懂,如同一剂重要的antidote,对抗网络世界日复一日的吸引力与各类信息输出。)”可知,网络世界具有消极诱导作用,而这本书可以矫正、治愈这类负面影响,因此画线单词意为“解药、矫正方式”,与 Cure 含义相符。。

They plan for what’s next. Top students don’t open textbooks the week after exams. ____18____ They might look at next year’s subject guides, and choose summer reading or projects.
They help others. ____19____ Top students, who offer to explain topics to classmates, create study guides for younger students, and share exam tips and reflections with peers, find that these actions reinforce what they’ve learned and build confidence.
They rest — on purpose. Rest isn’t accidental. ____20____ Top students make it active by deleting their exam study apps for a while, spending time with family and friends, and pursuing interests outside of school.
A. They read — not just for school.
B. They organize their notes and materials.
C. But they do begin mapping out what’s ahead.
D. Most students just relax and have a good rest.
E. Recovery isn’t a break from success — it’s part of it.

第二节(满分25分)
47. 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 early May, my first day in my volunteer job as groundskeeper for an old people’s community, a way for me to stay busy during retirement. Besides, I was doing a favor for my son Joshua, who was the manager here. His regular groundskeeper had quit, leaving the place looking like a jungle, and I was grateful to have something to do outdoors.
I’d told him I would help out on one condition: I wouldn’t have to deal with people. Before retiring, I’d been a building inspector, and I’d handled enough complaints to last a lifetime. I’d seen a lot in my 76 years, and there wasn’t much that could surprise me at this point. I was minding my own business, clearing weeds around the trees and bushes when a group of ladies signaled me to stop the motor.
“Stay away from our flower bed,” one woman called out, glaring through her glasses and pointing at a patch of green I’d cut. “Oops,” I said. “I thought those were weeds.” I gave them a nod and went back to work. Not 10 minutes later, she waved at me anxiously from the door of her apartment. I cut the motor again. “What?” I said, maybe a little more sharply than I intended. “Watch out for my roses by the fence,” she told me. “I put signs by them.” Bending down, I spotted the remains of some tender seedlings (幼苗), which I had mistaken for weeds. A few feet away, two paper signs reading “Rose Plant” were almost completely covered by thick overgrown weeds, making them nearly invisible. My heart sank. How was I supposed to see them?
At dinner, I told my wife, Debby, how bad I felt for the woman. “I didn’t mean to damage the flower bed or rose plants. I just wanted to do my job uninterrupted,” I said. She set down her fork and looked at me. “You made a mess of things, dear. And you never even apologized.” she said.
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。
The next morning, I went to the garden with some rose seedlings.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Later, the garden exploded with color and something seemed to change in me too.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】The next morning, I went to the garden with some rose seedlings. I found the lady who had been upset the day before and sincerely apologized to her for damaging her roses. Then, I carefully planted the new seedlings in the cleared flower bed, making sure the signs were now clearly visible. I also spent extra time tidying up the area, removing every weed carefully. To my surprise, the lady softened her attitude. She even offered to help me water the plants later.
Later, the garden exploded with color and something seemed to change in me too. The blooming flowers, together with the laughter of the elderly residents who now stopped to chat with me, filled my heart with warmth. I realized that working without interacting with people had made my life lonely and meaningless. I no longer wanted to avoid them. Instead, I began to look forward to their company, finding joy in helping them and hearing their stories. My retirement suddenly felt full of purpose again.

Transform lives — Become an Ollie Coach!
Despite the very best efforts of our education system, it is struggling to cope with fully supporting the emotional wellbeing of our children. Have you ever felt that you would love to help, but were powerless to act? Well, here’s your opportunity to do something positive. By training to become a coach in the Ollie School, you could be an inspirational force in children’s emotional wellbeing.
Comprehensive training
The Ollie School plans to build an army of coaches who can make the world a better place, one child at a time. Ollie Coaching is a holistic (整体的) approach that leads all our youngsters to a place where they can live well in the chaos of modern living.
Learn with flexibility
So many schools are battling to provide an appropriate mental health environment with limited effect. That’s why Alison Knowles, who was challenged throughout her life with an inability to read, decided to set up the Ollie School. The Ollie approach is all about empowering children to seek solutions and take control of their emotions, rather than being controlled by them. It is also about personalization and identifying which technique will work with each individual child — no one-size-fits-all approach here.
License to help
The Ollie School graduates are awarded a certified qualification in NLP, and a license to work as an Ollie Coach. If helping children and their families to be more emotionally strong appeals to you, contact Ollie School to find out more. Courses are a combination of online and in-person, offering the best of both worlds, with a limited number of trainees to maximize learning potential. Visit ollieandhissuperpowers.com for more!
1. Why does the author write the passage?
A. To train coaches. B. To introduce a trend.
C. To comfort parents. D. To advertise a school.
2. What is an advantage of the Ollie approach?
A. It empowers school graduates. B. It controls children’s emotions.
C. It offers personalized techniques. D. It seeks the most common treatments.
3. Which section of a website is the text taken from?
A. Health. B. Science. C. Lifestyle. D. Opinion.

As evening falls, crowds begin gathering at Sensoryscape, a tourist site on the island resort of Sentosa in Singapore. With music filling the air, five AI-powered robot dogs dance to the rhythm. They wave, jump, and roll on the ground. After the performance, they interact and “chat” with visitors. Children excitedly run around them, while adults use their phones to capture photos and videos.
From April 18 to May 17, the Singapore Tourism Board and the Chinese travel platform Mafengwo jointly launched a pilot AI robot dog service at Sentosa Wildlife Reserve in Singapore. Addison Goh, divisional director of the Business and Experience Development Division at Sentosa Development Corporation, says, “The robot dogs are probably busier than I am,” adding that every day, they conduct guided tours, perform multiple dance shows, and check the grounds to interact with visitors.
More importantly, the robot dogs are powered by AI models. Visitors can not only ask them for directions, but also receive personalized recommendations. Families may be guided to family-friendly restaurants, while younger visitors are offered suggestions for photography attractions and social media-worthy spots.
The Singapore Tourism Board describes the pilot project as “an exciting step toward reimagining visitor experiences through technology and innovation”. In recent years, Singapore has been actively promoting its “Smart Nation” initiative, and the tourism sector has become a major testing ground for AI applications. Unlike traditional smart tourism solutions that focus mainly on online bookings, digital payments or backend data management, these AI robot dogs emphasize the interactive experience of AI in real-world settings.
From China to Singapore, these robot dogs are bringing the warmth of technology to visitors from around the world. Rather than just cold machines or lines of code, they are gradually becoming companions that tourists can touch, communicate with, and even share part of their journeys with.
4. What do Addison Goh’s words show about the AI robot dogs?
A. They are multi-functional. B. They work long hours.
C. They are of cultural value. D. They cause mixed feelings.
5. How are the AI robot dogs different from traditional smart tourism solutions?
A. They evaluate bookings. B. They have advanced codes.
C. They promote innovation. D. They highlight interaction.
6. What is the author’s attitude towards the AI robot dogs?
A. Doubtful. B. Approving. C. Cautious. D. Unclear.
7. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Robot Dogs Become Human Companions
B. Singapore’s Smart Tourism Wins Applause
C. AI Robot Dogs Redefine Tourist Experience
D. A New AI Service Is Launched in Singapore

From its frozen surface, Antarctica seems like a place unsuited for life. But just offshore, the depths of the Southern Ocean tell a different story. Hundreds of feet below the surface, there are ice fish guarding their eggs and strange-looking crabs crawling among colorful sea stars. “It blows your mind,” says marine biologist Cristian Lagger. “At the bottom of the sea, Antarctica is a rich continent with many species, colors, and shapes.”
During a recent exploration, Lagger looked into those depths from the control room of the Schmidt Ocean Institute’s research ship, Falkor, as live video from its remotely operated vehicle, SuBastian, streamed on a monitor. His research team had reached a previously undocumented place on the ocean floor, where SuBastian explored a gently sloped area from a depth of more than 3,000 feet to about 1,000 feet. Lagger and his colleagues felt like astronauts exploring a new frontier.
The Southern Ocean plays an outsized role in the health of our planet by absorbing more human-caused carbon dioxide than any other ocean and balancing the climate through its currents and seasonal ice. But as a recent study notes, current carbon sink (碳汇) estimates are limited because “harsh conditions there make collecting good data difficult.” So, little of the seabed has been studied and much remains unknown. By exploring its deep reaches, Lagger and his team hope to discover new species and update carbon storage estimates.
Lagger believes data from this expedition will strengthen the case for designating more marine protected areas around Antarctica. “It is not only about preserving unique and largely untouched ecosystems,” he explains, “but about safeguarding the health of the Southern Ocean and its role in Earth’s systems.” As he points out: “What happens at the frozen edge now will not just stay there.”
8. What does Lagger think of the biodiversity of the Southern Ocean?
A. It’s amazing. B. It’s strange. C. It’s predictable. D. It’s declining.
9. How did Lagger and his team study the depths of the Southern Ocean?
A. By exploring a new frontier. B. By stopping at a sloped area.
C. By playing live video remotely. D. By observing from the ship.
10. Why is the Southern Ocean vital to our planet?
A. It limits carbon sink. B. It stores much carbon.
C. It protects new species. D. It balances seasonal ice.
11. What does Lagger imply in the last paragraph?
A. The frozen edge does not stay in a fixed place.
B. Data from this expedition safeguard Earth’s systems.
C. The health of the Southern Ocean affects our ecosystem.
D. Marine protected areas around Antarctica are strengthened.

If you’re the parent of a child or teenager, chances are you’ve heard of social psychologist Jonathan Haidt, or his wildly influential book, The Anxious Generation. In sum, the book argues that the rise of smartphones and social media has “rewired” the brains of young people, leading to a mental health crisis. The book has undeniably had a significant impact. Many states in the U.S. are limiting the use of phones in schools by law.
Haidt’s latest work, The Amazing Generation, is a self-described “guide”. The first section of the book gives background information about everything from the rise of different kinds of media to explanations of “the attention economy”. This section also includes lots of alarming visuals, including one of my favorites, “Screen Time Calculator That You Can Use to Freak People Out.” “1 hour per day = 15 full days per year. 2 hours per day = 1 full month per year. Etc.” This is a page I wouldn’t mind seeing hung on classroom walls, including the college classrooms where I teach.
The second part of the book is a novel tracking the lives of six young people, their relationships to themselves and one another, and the various technologies that impact those interactions. It’s hard not to feel familiar when you read the part where heavy social media user Alex finally agrees to join his phoneless friend Jax at the skate park. We see Jax trying out different skating moves in the background, and by the end, falling onto the ground after another heroic attempt. Meanwhile, Alex has been scrolling his screen, first searching for skating tips, then watching world championship skating highlights.

47. 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 early May, my first day in my volunteer job as groundskeeper for an old people’s community, a way for me to stay busy during retirement. Besides, I was doing a favor for my son Joshua, who was the manager here. His regular groundskeeper had quit, leaving the place looking like a jungle, and I was grateful to have something to do outdoors.
I’d told him I would help out on one condition: I wouldn’t have to deal with people. Before retiring, I’d been a building inspector, and I’d handled enough complaints to last a lifetime. I’d seen a lot in my 76 years, and there wasn’t much that could surprise me at this point. I was minding my own business, clearing weeds around the trees and bushes when a group of ladies signaled me to stop the motor.
“Stay away from our flower bed,” one woman called out, glaring through her glasses and pointing at a patch of green I’d cut. “Oops,” I said. “I thought those were weeds.” I gave them a nod and went back to work. Not 10 minutes later, she waved at me anxiously from the door of her apartment. I cut the motor again. “What?” I said, maybe a little more sharply than I intended. “Watch out for my roses by the fence,” she told me. “I put signs by them.” Bending down, I spotted the remains of some tender seedlings (幼苗), which I had mistaken for weeds. A few feet away, two paper signs reading “Rose Plant” were almost completely covered by thick overgrown weeds, making them nearly invisible. My heart sank. How was I supposed to see them?
At dinner, I told my wife, Debby, how bad I felt for the woman. “I didn’t mean to damage the flower bed or rose plants. I just wanted to do my job uninterrupted,” I said. She set down her fork and looked at me. “You made a mess of things, dear. And you never even apologized.” she said.
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。
The next morning, I went to the garden with some rose seedlings.

Later, the garden exploded with color and something seemed to change in me too.
