The National Gallery has launched a new exhibition called Art on Your Doorstep, taking life-sized versions of some masterpieces to communities around the UK. This project works with organisations across the UK to help share masterpieces from the nation’s collection with communities beyond Trafalgar Square. It will be reaching all four nations of the UK, travelling to a total of 12 partners. The National Gallery offers up to 30 printed reproductions of masterpieces from its collection each time.
The first exhibition started in Stoke-on-Trent on 4 June 2025. Fifteen printed masterpieces were installed in an outdoor exhibition in Bethesda Gardens, opposite The Potteries Museum & Art Gallery, as part of the city’s Centenary celebrations. Right now the free outdoor exhibition is running in Croydon, London.
In each location, the local community has helped choose the paintings to be displayed. Croydon’s exhibition features 30 paintings. Caterina Loriggio, who works on cultural events in Croydon, said that they ran workshops with residents to choose the artworks. The workshops asked questions such as “Which painting reminds you of Croydon?”, and residents chose from different paintings for their answer. Loriggio said, “What was interesting was how many people chose the same things.”
Every year, the National Gallery partners with organisations and audiences across the UK in a range of different and innovative ways. They want to ensure that everyone in the UK can engage with their national collection. Over the past years they have partnered with a number of organisations through a range of projects including their flagship Masterpiece Tour, contemporary Artist-in-Residence programme, National Treasures, Visits tour and Take One Picture programme.
21. Why did The National Gallery start the project?
A. To inspire innovation. B. To seek potential partners.
C. To build community pride. D. To popularize its collection.
22. How were the paintings for Croydon selected?
A. By the painters. B. Through online voting.
C. By art professionals. D. Through local workshops.
23. Where is this text most probably taken from?
A. A museum newsletter. B. A travel handbook.
C. An art research paper. D. A community notice.

For years, Alma has been the Emergency Poet, travelling around British festivals and literary events in an old ambulance, and giving one-to-one consultations. Now she’s gone a step further with The Poetry Pharmacy, her magical shop selling all things poetry-related.
Alma always wanted to be a writer, but ended up with a shadow life instead, living and working around books and literature. She worked as a bookseller, and then at a publishing house for many years. Then, one day, she was walking down the high street in Bishop’s Castle, a few miles away from her home, when she looked into a closed-up shop, saw the dusty and neglected Edwardian shelves and drawers — and fell in love.
Her partner, Jim Sheard, is an academic — and of course a published poet. He is supportive of her work, but it still took a while to convince him that they should buy the building, and live above the shop. The redecoration funded with a successful campaign on Kickstarter. “It was other people’s belief in the idea that tipped the scales into doing it,” Alma says.
There’s a skill to creating spaces where people feel really comfortable, and it’s one Alma seems to possess in abundance. She has a space put aside for the Emergency Poet, styled like Sigmund Freud’s consulting room, with a comfortable chair for her’patients’ to lie on. There are creative writing classes. The shop sells remedies consisting of poems sealed in bottles, poetic greetings cards and of course, lots of books: “I’ve managed to get the stock without going into debt, which has been difficult. But I was resourceful.”
The shop opened on 3 October 2019, which — not uncoincidentally — is also National Poetry Day in the UK. “We’ve only been open for a few months. It’s like having a new baby. You love it, but it completely dominates everything. So I love it, but I also think I’ve created a monster!”
24. What did Alma do before starting the Poetry Pharmacy?
A. She taught writing at a college.
B. She ran an emergency clinic full-time.
C. She wrote poems for a magazine.
D. She worked in the book industry for years.
25. What helped Alma with the shop’s redecoration?
A. Money from a Kickstarter campaign.
B. Donations from her partner.
C. Profits from her poetry consultations.
D. Support from a publishing house.
26. What is special about The Poetry Pharmacy?
A. It mainly sells rare antique books on poetry.
B. It has the longest history among UK poetry shops.
C. It provides free medical treatment for poetry lovers.
D. It heals people with words and offers poetry-related services.
27. What does Alma mean by saying “I’ve created a monster” in the last paragraph?
A. The shop brings more trouble.
B. The shop takes up her time and energy.
C. The shop fails to attract customers.
D. The shop receives negative comments.
【答案】24. D 25. A 26. D 27. B
【解析】
【导语】文章主要讲述了Alma从图书行业转型创办诗歌药房的经历与感悟。
【24题详解】

【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“The redecoration funded with a successful campaign on Kickstarter.(装修资金来自Kickstarter上的一次成功筹款活动。)”可知,Kickstarter上的筹款活动为店铺装修提供了资金。

【27题详解】
词句猜测题。根据最后一段中“It’s like having a new baby. You love it, but it completely dominates everything. So I love it, but I also think I’ve created a monster!(这就像有了一个新生儿。满心欢喜热爱不已,却也被它占据了全部生活。我深爱这家小店,可有时也觉得I’ve created a monster!)”可知,Alma这样说,是表示店铺占据了她大量的时间和精力。
C
According to YouGov, 88% of Americans have positive feelings about French fries. In short: People love them. However, this delicious side dish is also clearly not-so-great for you. But hold on, fry lovers — researchers may have found a potential solution.
Instead of asking people to give up fries altogether, some scientists are exploring whether the way they’re cooked could make a meaningful difference. In 2025, researchers from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign published their findings on creating a better-for-you French fry, using a technique called “microwave frying”.
It helps to first understand what happens to fries when they’re prepared the traditional way. As the potato heats up, the water inside it begins to evaporate (蒸发). This, however, leaves behind tiny pockets, which then create a force pulling the oil inside. Think about a straw in a drink. If you suck on the straw, the liquid moves upward. Now, imagine food materials have lots of tiny straws. When there is positive pressure, the oil stays out. But if there is negative pressure, the oil starts moving in.
As much as 90% of the frying process occurs under this negative pressure. But microwaving may be able to assist in this particular part of the process. When we heat something in a conventional oven, the heat moves from outside to inside. But a microwave oven heats from the inside out. The higher pressure in microwaves helps reduce oil penetration (渗透).
But microwaving alone won’t cook the fries the way we know and love. “If you just use microwave frying, your food turns out too soft.” Takhar said. “To obtain crispiness (松脆), you need conventional heating. Therefore, we propose combining the two approaches in the same unit. Conventional heating maintains the crispiness, while microwave heating lowers the oil intake.” The best news is that restaurants may not need new equipment. Existing large commercial fryers can be upgraded with affordable, widely available microwave generators.
28. What are scientists trying to improve about fries?
A. Their taste. B. Their kitchen popularity.
C. Their health effects. D. Their cooking equipment.
29. Which is the correct order of the traditional frying process?
① Oil entry. ② Water loss. ③ Negative pressure. ④ Pocket formation.
A. ① → ③ → ② → ④ B. ② → ④ → ③ → ①
C. ② → ① → ④ → ③ D. ③ → ④ → ② → ①
30. How do microwaves reduce oil intake?
A. By increasing pressure. B. By drying water faster.
C. By creating holes within. D. By heating from outside in.
31. What can be inferred about the new method?
A. It is a two-in-one method. B. It remains hard to test.
C. It needs costly equipment. D. It has been widely used.
【答案】28. C 29. B 30. A 31. A

【导语】文章主要说明了美国人大多喜爱薯条,但传统油炸吸油多不利于健康。研究提出微波 + 传统加热复合炸制工艺,依靠微波升压减吸油、传统加热保酥脆,现有炸锅可低成本改造使用。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“However, this delicious side dish is also clearly not-so-great for you. But hold on, fry lovers — researchers may have found a potential solution.(不过,这道美味的配菜显然对你来说也不太理想。但等等,油炸食品爱好者们——研究人员或许找到了一个潜在的解决方案)”以及第二段“In 2025, researchers from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign published their findings on creating a better-for-you French fry, using a technique called “microwave frying”.(2025年,伊利诺伊大学厄巴纳-香槟分校的研究人员发表了一项研究结果,提出了一种名为“微波油炸”的技术,用于制作更健康的薯条)”可知,科学家们试图改善薯条的健康影响。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“As the potato heats up, the water inside it begins to evaporate (蒸发). This, however, leaves behind tiny pockets, which then create a force pulling the oil inside.(当土豆加热时,内部的水分开始蒸发。然而,这会留下微小的空隙,从而产生一个向内拉扯油分的力量)”可知,顺序为:失水→形成小孔→负压产生→油脂渗入。

Slop is a new way to describe mass-produced, low-quality content. The term comes from artificial intelligence. Developer Simon Willison shared the concept: “Not all AI-generated content is slop. But if it’s mindlessly generated and forced upon someone who didn’t ask for it, slop is the perfect term.” Today slop’s critical tone is increasingly aimed at all things AI, treating it as a cultural pollutant. But by unthinkingly dismissing all of it, we risk missing out on the minority of creations that are keepers.
Mass-produced culture has a long, messy history. One notable slop moment came after Johannes Gutenberg invented the movable-type printing press in Europe. The device — the ChatGPT of the 1450s — allowed the mass production of cheap printed material. Some of this material was nonsense, but much of it entertained and educated the masses. In the early 1700s, a growing reading public created steady demand for text, giving rise to Grub Street — the slop generator of its time. People laughed at Grub Street even as its writers built the first modern freelance (自由职业) economy and mass-print culture. The 20th-century cinema boom followed a similar pattern. Production demands produced a lot of rubbish, but this effort also developed the motion-picture industry’s foundation.
In all of these situations, the point wasn’t to create masterpieces; it was to create rapidly and cheaply. But the production of new types of slop allows more people to participate. The current wave of AI-generated slop raises the risks because the cost for those making slop has collapsed to near zero, while the cost for other people is high in terms of cognitive burden. So we must identify and take advantage of what stands out so that we can better discourage what doesn’t. The word “slop” helps us do that when it is used correctly.
Calling everything worthless is a misguided attempt to dam the flood rather than channel it. If “culture is ordinary,” then the ordinary act of making on a large scale will always include waste. But it’ll also produce the seeds of the next thing we’ll decide to keep.
32. According to paragraph 1, which of the following is an example of “slop”?
A. A novel written by ChatGPT upon request.
B. A historical essay printed by a modern publisher.
C. A low-budget film made by a famous filmmaker.
D. An AI-generated poem that pops up on your phone.
33. What do the examples in paragraph 2 illustrate?
A. History is sometimes unreliable.
B. Mass culture received wide criticism.
C. Mass culture has long been a complex issue.
D. Technological advances underwent a difficult process.
34. What has fueled today’s slop boom?
A. Lower production costs. B. Better digital access.
C. Faster information flow. D. Public demand for AI.
35. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. Slop in AI: A Growing Problem B. Mass Production: Past and Future
C. Slop in History: An Art Phenomenon D. The Slop Cycle: Trash or Treasure
【答案】32. D 33. C 34. A 35. D
【解析】
【导语】文章主要围绕“slop”(低质量、大批量生产的内容)这一概念展开讨论,分析了其在历史上的类似现象以及当今AI时代的特点,最终指出“slop”并非全无价值,其中也可能孕育出值得保留的精华。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段第三、四句“Developer Simon Willison shared the concept: “Not all AI-generated content is slop. But if it’s mindlessly generated and forced upon someone who didn’t ask for it, slop is the perfect term.” (开发者西蒙·威利森分享了这一概念:“并非所有AI生成的内容都是slop。但如果它是被无脑地生成,并强加给一个并未主动索取的人,那么slop就是最贴切的词。”)”可知,构成“slop”需要同时满足两个条件,一是由AI生成,二是未经索取而被强行推送。D选项“An AI-generated poem that pops up on your phone. (手机上弹出来的一首AI生成的诗。)”符合这两个条件,它由AI生成,且以弹出形式强行推送给用户。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段首句“Mass-produced culture has a long, messy history. (大批量生产的文化有着漫长而杂乱的历史。)”可知,本段的核心观点是“批量生产文化”并非新现象,而是由来已久。随后作者列举了三个历史例子:15世纪古腾堡印刷机带来的廉价印刷品、18世纪格拉布街催生的大众文本生产、20世纪的电影繁荣。作者在描述每个例子时都指出,这些现象既产生了大量“垃圾”,也推动了相关产业的发展。这表明批量生产文化一直是“复杂议题”,既有弊端也有贡献。C选项“Mass culture has long been a complex issue. (大众文化长期以来都是一个复杂议题。)”准确概括了本段例子的共同主旨。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段第三句“The current wave of AI-generated slop raises the risks because the cost for those making slop has collapsed to near zero, while the cost for other people is high in terms of cognitive burden. (当前这波AI生成的slop加大了风险,因为制造slop的人的成本已骤降至接近于零,而对其他人来说,其认知负担方面的成本却很高。)”可知,当前slop激增的直接原因是制造slop的成本大幅降低。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。文章第一段引入“slop”概念并指出一概否定会让我们错过其中的精华;第二段通过历史例证说明大批量生产文化中“糟粕与精华并存”是长期存在的现象;第三段分析AI时代slop成本趋零的新特点,但强调要识别并利用其中脱颖而出的内容;第四段总结批量制造必然包含废弃物,但也可能产生值得保留的种子。全文的核心观点始终围绕“slop究竟是垃圾还是宝藏”这一辩证关系展开,既承认其消极面,又提示其中可能蕴含积极价值。D选项“The Slop Cycle: Trash or Treasure? (Slop循环:垃圾还是宝藏?)”准确概括了这一核心议题。

【解析】
【导语】这篇文章主要介绍了如何通过关注健康监测、调整营养饮食、安排适宜运动以及重视情感陪伴这四个方面,为老年犬提供全面而细致的关怀。
【36题详解】
前文“Sharing life with a dog is a journey of love that deepens with every passing year. As our companions enter their golden years, what they need for their continued comfort and happiness will change. (与狗狗共度生活是一段充满爱的旅程,这份爱会随着岁月的流逝而愈发深厚。当我们的伙伴步入老年之时,它们对于持续的舒适与快乐的需求也会发生变化。)”提到老年犬对舒适和快乐的需求会变化,后文“It involves a comprehensive (全面的) approach that covers their changing health, mobility, and emotional well-being. (这需要采取一种全面的方法,涵盖它们健康状况的变化、行动能力以及情绪健康等方面。)”指出满足其需求需要全面的方法,因此G项“Taking care of your senior dog goes beyond regular walks and meals. (照顾你的老年犬,远不止常规的散步和喂食。)”符合语境,指出照顾老年犬有更高的要求,既承接前文的需求改变,又引出后文的方法,其中的Taking care of your senior dog是后文It指代的对象。
【37题详解】
前文“Remember to keep a close eye on their behavior. (记得要密切留意它们的行为表现。)”提醒关注老年犬的行为表现,因此D项“Any small relevant shifts are often the first clues. (任何微小的相关变化通常是第一线索。)”符合语境,解释为何要关注其行为,承接前文。
【38题详解】
前文“As your dog ages, their nutritional needs will change, too. It’s essential to change their diet and monitor their weight to prevent any obesity-related health issues. (随着狗狗年龄的增长,它们的营养需求也会发生变化。需要调整其饮食并监测体重,以预防任何与肥胖相关的健康问题。)”建议调整老年犬的饮食并监控体重,后文“Also consider giving supplements (补充) such as a multivitamin which includes joint-supporting ingredients, as well as healthy fats which help improve brain function and support healthy skin. (还可以考虑给老年犬喂食一些补充剂,比如含有促进关节健康的成分的复合维生素,以及有助于提升大脑功能和维护皮肤健康的健康脂肪。)”进一步说明调整饮食的具体方法,因此A项“Choose high-quality senior dog food. (选择高品质的老年犬粮。)”符合语境,是调整饮食的首要具体方法,承接前文,和后文是递进关系。
【39题详解】
前文“Your dog might not be as lively as they once were, so adjusting their exercise routine makes sense. (你的狗狗可能不像以前那样精力充沛了,所以调整一下它们的运动计划是合理的。)”建议调整老年犬的运动,后文“Activities like swimming are great, too, as they provide all-round exercise to maintain muscle mass and joint flexibility without putting stress on their old bones. (像游泳这样的活动也很棒,因为它们提供全面的锻炼,以保持肌肉量和关节灵活性,而且不会给年迈的骨骼带来压力。)”进一步举例游泳这种锻炼方式,因此E项“Think gentle walks instead of demanding physical activities. (考虑温和的散步,而非要求高的体育活动。)”符合语境,举例散步这一锻炼方式,承接前文,和后文游泳的例子并列。
【40题详解】
后文“Spend quality time with your senior dog, doing some activities they love. Your companionship is invaluable to them. (和你的老年犬一起度过美好时光,做一些它们喜欢的活动。你的陪伴对它们来说是无价之宝。)”建议陪伴老年犬,满足其情感需求,因此C项“Emotional well-being should not be ignored. (情感健康不应被忽视。)”符合语境,指出情感健康的重要性,作为段首句统领后文。

【答案】
What Makes a Scientist
Hello everyone.
Have you ever stared at the stars as a child, endlessly asking “why”? That innocent curiosity is where every great journey begins — including the journey to become a scientist. So, what makes a true scientist? It’s not just knowledge, but certain qualities. First, a scientist must possess curiosity — always asking questions. Second, perseverance is essential — because the path of discovery is paved with setbacks and failures. And third, integrity matters greatly —a scientist should be honest and work efficiently with others.
We have a lot of scientists with such qualities around. Take for example, Deng Jiaxian, a key figure in China’s “Two Bombs, One Satellite” program, worked in secret for decades with great patriotism and perseverance. In our new era, Tu Youyou and her team kept trying through years of trials and finally found artemisinin, saving millions of lives. They show us that real scientists serve the people both heart and soul and never give up.
So let’s start now. Be curious in class, ask why, learn from mistakes, and help each other. Science is about making the world better — and each of us can be part of that great mission. Thank you.

第二节(满分25分)
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。
Chocolates, lollipops, and toys were the items picked by Babloo while his Mom was busy selecting the provisions (供给) for the month from a departmental store. They both completed their selection of items and entered the billing counter. Seetha was surprised to see the bill which amounted to Rs.1000, which was more than the budget that she had. She wanted to return some of the items picked up by Babloo, but she did not want to disappoint her only son.
That evening, Ramesh dragged himself through the door, looking extremely tired. Seetha asked, “How was your day today?” Ramesh said with a dull face, “It was very tough... I must be very aggressive to save my job. We need to save at least a little more amount per month, Seetha”. “So, what was the bill amount for this month?” asked Ramesh with curiosity. When Seetha quietly mentioned the grocery bill in the kitchen, he murmured, “Every child deserves these small joys”, forcing a smile.
However, Babloo overheard his parents’ conversation. Peeking (偷瞥) through the doorway, Babloo saw his father sitting at the table, head in hands — a sight that sent a sharp pang (痛苦) through the boy’s heart. The next morning, he noticed the deep worry lines on his father’s face that even a forced smile couldn’t conceal (掩藏).
In the following weeks, a quiet determination settled over Babloo. He began spending evenings writing something, with his English dictionary constantly at his side. When his mother urged him to sleep, he’d simply say, “It’s for a school assignment,” though his eyes held a secret. Ramesh, noticing the light under his son’s door late at night, felt a mixture of pride and concern, unaware that his son’s efforts were all for him.
One evening, Babloo rushed to meet his father, face glowing with triumph. “Papa, this is for you!” he exclaimed, holding out a Rs.8000 note. Ramesh’s face darkened instantly. “Where did you get this? Did you steal it?” he demanded, his voice sharp with fear. Babloo’s radiant smile soon vanished, tears springing to his eyes as he looked at the father.
注意:
(1)续写词数应在150左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1: Seetha immediately stepped between them, asking Babloo softly, “Tell us, dear.”

Paragraph 2: Then, Babloo proposed, “We can use it to buy the provisions.”
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】参考范文:
Seetha immediately stepped between them, asking Babloo softly, “Tell us, dear.” “It’s my prize,” Babloo said as he pulled the award certificate and his winning essay from his schoolbag. Wiping away his tears, he began explaining in a trembling voice how he had noticed his dad’s weariness and mom’s worried looks over their financial struggles. He recalled the moment he decided to enter the essay competition, murmuring, “I thought if I won, I could help.” As Ramesh’s rough fingers gently traced the words on the certificate, his initial anger melted away, replaced by a surge of affection mixed with self-reproach.
Then, Babloo proposed, “We can use it to buy the provisions.” Seetha and Ramesh exchanged a deeply touched glance, seeing the pure love behind their son’s gesture. They embraced him tightly, their voices thick with emotion. After a thoughtful discussion, Ramesh suggested, “Let’s set aside most of it for your education.” But seeing the earnest look in Babloo’s eyes, he added, “We can use a small portion to ease our situation right now.” A genuine smile finally returned to Babloo’s face, brighter than any they had seen in months. The money would provide temporary relief, but they all understood that the real treasure lay in the strengthened bonds of their family and their newfound mutual understanding.

The National Gallery has launched a new exhibition called Art on Your Doorstep, taking life-sized versions of some masterpieces to communities around the UK. This project works with organisations across the UK to help share masterpieces from the nation’s collection with communities beyond Trafalgar Square. It will be reaching all four nations of the UK, travelling to a total of 12 partners. The National Gallery offers up to 30 printed reproductions of masterpieces from its collection each time.
The first exhibition started in Stoke-on-Trent on 4 June 2025. Fifteen printed masterpieces were installed in an outdoor exhibition in Bethesda Gardens, opposite The Potteries Museum & Art Gallery, as part of the city’s Centenary celebrations. Right now the free outdoor exhibition is running in Croydon, London.
In each location, the local community has helped choose the paintings to be displayed. Croydon’s exhibition features 30 paintings. Caterina Loriggio, who works on cultural events in Croydon, said that they ran workshops with residents to choose the artworks. The workshops asked questions such as “Which painting reminds you of Croydon?”, and residents chose from different paintings for their answer. Loriggio said, “What was interesting was how many people chose the same things.”
Every year, the National Gallery partners with organisations and audiences across the UK in a range of different and innovative ways. They want to ensure that everyone in the UK can engage with their national collection. Over the past years they have partnered with a number of organisations through a range of projects including their flagship Masterpiece Tour, contemporary Artist-in-Residence programme, National Treasures, Visits tour and Take One Picture programme.
21. Why did The National Gallery start the project?
A. To inspire innovation. B. To seek potential partners.
C. To build community pride. D. To popularize its collection.
22. How were the paintings for Croydon selected?
A. By the painters. B. Through online voting.
C. By art professionals. D. Through local workshops.
23. Where is this text most probably taken from?
A. A museum newsletter. B. A travel handbook.
C. An art research paper. D. A community notice.

For years, Alma has been the Emergency Poet, travelling around British festivals and literary events in an old ambulance, and giving one-to-one consultations. Now she’s gone a step further with The Poetry Pharmacy, her magical shop selling all things poetry-related.
Alma always wanted to be a writer, but ended up with a shadow life instead, living and working around books and literature. She worked as a bookseller, and then at a publishing house for many years. Then, one day, she was walking down the high street in Bishop’s Castle, a few miles away from her home, when she looked into a closed-up shop, saw the dusty and neglected Edwardian shelves and drawers — and fell in love.
Her partner, Jim Sheard, is an academic — and of course a published poet. He is supportive of her work, but it still took a while to convince him that they should buy the building, and live above the shop. The redecoration funded with a successful campaign on Kickstarter. “It was other people’s belief in the idea that tipped the scales into doing it,” Alma says.
There’s a skill to creating spaces where people feel really comfortable, and it’s one Alma seems to possess in abundance. She has a space put aside for the Emergency Poet, styled like Sigmund Freud’s consulting room, with a comfortable chair for her’patients’ to lie on. There are creative writing classes. The shop sells remedies consisting of poems sealed in bottles, poetic greetings cards and of course, lots of books: “I’ve managed to get the stock without going into debt, which has been difficult. But I was resourceful.”
The shop opened on 3 October 2019, which — not uncoincidentally — is also National Poetry Day in the UK. “We’ve only been open for a few months. It’s like having a new baby. You love it, but it completely dominates everything. So I love it, but I also think I’ve created a monster!”
24. What did Alma do before starting the Poetry Pharmacy?
A. She taught writing at a college.
B. She ran an emergency clinic full-time.
C. She wrote poems for a magazine.
D. She worked in the book industry for years.
25. What helped Alma with the shop’s redecoration?
A. Money from a Kickstarter campaign.
B. Donations from her partner.
C. Profits from her poetry consultations.
D. Support from a publishing house.
26. What is special about The Poetry Pharmacy?
A. It mainly sells rare antique books on poetry.
B. It has the longest history among UK poetry shops.
C. It provides free medical treatment for poetry lovers.
D. It heals people with words and offers poetry-related services.
27. What does Alma mean by saying “I’ve created a monster” in the last paragraph?
A. The shop brings more trouble.
B. The shop takes up her time and energy.
C. The shop fails to attract customers.
D. The shop receives negative comments.
C
According to YouGov, 88% of Americans have positive feelings about French fries. In short: People love them. However, this delicious side dish is also clearly not-so-great for you. But hold on, fry lovers — researchers may have found a potential solution.
Instead of asking people to give up fries altogether, some scientists are exploring whether the way they’re cooked could make a meaningful difference. In 2025, researchers from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign published their findings on creating a better-for-you French fry, using a technique called “microwave frying”.
It helps to first understand what happens to fries when they’re prepared the traditional way. As the potato heats up, the water inside it begins to evaporate (蒸发). This, however, leaves behind tiny pockets, which then create a force pulling the oil inside. Think about a straw in a drink. If you suck on the straw, the liquid moves upward. Now, imagine food materials have lots of tiny straws. When there is positive pressure, the oil stays out. But if there is negative pressure, the oil starts moving in.
As much as 90% of the frying process occurs under this negative pressure. But microwaving may be able to assist in this particular part of the process. When we heat something in a conventional oven, the heat moves from outside to inside. But a microwave oven heats from the inside out. The higher pressure in microwaves helps reduce oil penetration (渗透).
But microwaving alone won’t cook the fries the way we know and love. “If you just use microwave frying, your food turns out too soft.” Takhar said. “To obtain crispiness (松脆), you need conventional heating. Therefore, we propose combining the two approaches in the same unit. Conventional heating maintains the crispiness, while microwave heating lowers the oil intake.” The best news is that restaurants may not need new equipment. Existing large commercial fryers can be upgraded with affordable, widely available microwave generators.
28. What are scientists trying to improve about fries?
A. Their taste. B. Their kitchen popularity.
C. Their health effects. D. Their cooking equipment.
29. Which is the correct order of the traditional frying process?
① Oil entry. ② Water loss. ③ Negative pressure. ④ Pocket formation.
A. ① → ③ → ② → ④ B. ② → ④ → ③ → ①
C. ② → ① → ④ → ③ D. ③ → ④ → ② → ①
30. How do microwaves reduce oil intake?
A. By increasing pressure. B. By drying water faster.
C. By creating holes within. D. By heating from outside in.
31. What can be inferred about the new method?
A. It is a two-in-one method. B. It remains hard to test.
C. It needs costly equipment. D. It has been widely used.
D
Slop is a new way to describe mass-produced, low-quality content. The term comes from artificial intelligence. Developer Simon Willison shared the concept: “Not all AI-generated content is slop. But if it’s mindlessly generated and forced upon someone who didn’t ask for it, slop is the perfect term.” Today slop’s critical tone is increasingly aimed at all things AI, treating it as a cultural pollutant. But by unthinkingly dismissing all of it, we risk missing out on the minority of creations that are keepers.
Mass-produced culture has a long, messy history. One notable slop moment came after Johannes Gutenberg invented the movable-type printing press in Europe. The device — the ChatGPT of the 1450s — allowed the mass production of cheap printed material. Some of this material was nonsense, but much of it entertained and educated the masses. In the early 1700s, a growing reading public created steady demand for text, giving rise to Grub Street — the slop generator of its time. People laughed at Grub Street even as its writers built the first modern freelance (自由职业) economy and mass-print culture. The 20th-century cinema boom followed a similar pattern. Production demands produced a lot of rubbish, but this effort also developed the motion-picture industry’s foundation.
In all of these situations, the point wasn’t to create masterpieces; it was to create rapidly and cheaply. But the production of new types of slop allows more people to participate. The current wave of AI-generated slop raises the risks because the cost for those making slop has collapsed to near zero, while the cost for other people is high in terms of cognitive burden. So we must identify and take advantage of what stands out so that we can better discourage what doesn’t. The word “slop” helps us do that when it is used correctly.
Calling everything worthless is a misguided attempt to dam the flood rather than channel it. If “culture is ordinary,” then the ordinary act of making on a large scale will always include waste. But it’ll also produce the seeds of the next thing we’ll decide to keep.
32. According to paragraph 1, which of the following is an example of “slop”?
A. A novel written by ChatGPT upon request.
B. A historical essay printed by a modern publisher.
C. A low-budget film made by a famous filmmaker.
D. An AI-generated poem that pops up on your phone.
33. What do the examples in paragraph 2 illustrate?
A. History is sometimes unreliable.
B. Mass culture received wide criticism.
C. Mass culture has long been a complex issue.
D. Technological advances underwent a difficult process.
34. What has fueled today’s slop boom?
A. Lower production costs. B. Better digital access.
C. Faster information flow. D. Public demand for AI.
35. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. Slop in AI: A Growing Problem B. Mass Production: Past and Future
C. Slop in History: An Art Phenomenon D. The Slop Cycle: Trash or Treasure

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。
Chocolates, lollipops, and toys were the items picked by Babloo while his Mom was busy selecting the provisions (供给) for the month from a departmental store. They both completed their selection of items and entered the billing counter. Seetha was surprised to see the bill which amounted to Rs.1000, which was more than the budget that she had. She wanted to return some of the items picked up by Babloo, but she did not want to disappoint her only son.
That evening, Ramesh dragged himself through the door, looking extremely tired. Seetha asked, “How was your day today?” Ramesh said with a dull face, “It was very tough... I must be very aggressive to save my job. We need to save at least a little more amount per month, Seetha”. “So, what was the bill amount for this month?” asked Ramesh with curiosity. When Seetha quietly mentioned the grocery bill in the kitchen, he murmured, “Every child deserves these small joys”, forcing a smile.
However, Babloo overheard his parents’ conversation. Peeking (偷瞥) through the doorway, Babloo saw his father sitting at the table, head in hands — a sight that sent a sharp pang (痛苦) through the boy’s heart. The next morning, he noticed the deep worry lines on his father’s face that even a forced smile couldn’t conceal (掩藏).
In the following weeks, a quiet determination settled over Babloo. He began spending evenings writing something, with his English dictionary constantly at his side. When his mother urged him to sleep, he’d simply say, “It’s for a school assignment,” though his eyes held a secret. Ramesh, noticing the light under his son’s door late at night, felt a mixture of pride and concern, unaware that his son’s efforts were all for him.
One evening, Babloo rushed to meet his father, face glowing with triumph. “Papa, this is for you!” he exclaimed, holding out a Rs.8000 note. Ramesh’s face darkened instantly. “Where did you get this? Did you steal it?” he demanded, his voice sharp with fear. Babloo’s radiant smile soon vanished, tears springing to his eyes as he looked at the father.
注意:
(1)续写词数应在150左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1: Seetha immediately stepped between them, asking Babloo softly, “Tell us, dear.”
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2: Then, Babloo proposed, “We can use it to buy the provisions.”
