Maria Onate had not read a book until her son started high school. Her parents ended her education when she was 15 to prepare her for marriage and work.
Decades later, at her son’s new high school, she joined a book club for immigrant parents. Maria’s early hesitation turned into enthusiasm shortly after she attended the book club meetings, where she and 15 other Latina mothers passionately discussed novels.
Principal Torres Flores started the club. She noticed that parents’ involvement directly influenced students’ attitudes toward reading. Initially, like Maria, only a few parents joined the club, doubting their ability to read at a high level. Over time, the group grew to a core of 15 regular members, mostly mothers, who proudly call themselves lifelong learners.
The book club meetings are an extension of the parents’ involvement in their children’s education. The book club often discusses stories that provide a valuable reference for family life. For example, The Diary of a Young Girl inspired perseverance, while Rain of Gold sparked deep discussions about family and tradition.
Beyond reading, the club empowers them to take on leadership roles at school and share their love of books at home. The schedule for the book club is tight, but the mothers still find time to attend. They even organize activities for other parents and contribute to the school’s energetic community.
The positive impact extends to their families. Parents who once spent weekends watching TV now enjoy reading with their children. Research shows that having books at home has a positive effect on children’s studies. For many, the club has inspired them to create personal libraries, fostering a culture of learning.
Torres Flores believes these efforts benefit both parents and students. Parents feel more confident and connected to the school, while students see the value of education.
At the end of a meeting, the group selects a new book to read together, often choosing stories that offer lessons they can apply to their families. For these parents, the book club is more than a reading group; it influences their children and supports their future.
4. Why did Maria hesitate to join the book club initially?
A. Her parents discouraged her. B. She was an immigrant parent.
C. Only a few parents joined it. D. It was beyond her reading ability.
5. What’s the main purpose of Torres starting the book club?
A. To strengthen parents’ modelling influence. B. To develop parents’ communication skills.
C. To have parents teach children how to read. D. To discuss children’s problems with parents.
6. How do students benefit from the book club?
A. They will enjoy powerful family libraries. B. They can achieve greater academic success.
C. They will be invited to manage a school. D. They can learn how to organize activities.
7. What is the main theme of the passage?
A. Many hands make light work. B. Parental influence plays a vital role.
C. Hard work eventually bears fruit. D. Reading is what makes a difference.
【答案】4. D 5. A 6. B 7. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲的是校长Torres Flores创办移民家长读书俱乐部。原本缺乏阅读能力的家长参与其中,收获成长;家长在家养成阅读习惯,进而影响孩子,让孩子受益,实现家校共赢。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Initially, like Maria, only a few parents joined the club, doubting their ability to read at a high level.(起初,和Maria一样,只有少数家长加入俱乐部,他们怀疑自己能否进行高水平阅读。)”可知,玛丽亚最初对加入读书俱乐部感到犹豫的原因是她认为读书俱乐部超出了自己的阅读能力。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Principal Torres Flores started the club. She noticed that parents’ involvement directly influenced students’ attitudes toward reading.(读书俱乐部由校长托雷斯·弗洛雷斯创办。她注意到,家长的参与直接影响学生对阅读的态度。)”可知,托雷斯创办读书俱乐部的主要目的是加强家长的榜样作用。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第三段“Research shows that having books at home has a positive effect on children’s studies.(研究表明,在家中拥有书籍对孩子的学业有积极影响。)”可知,学生从读书俱乐部中能获得的好处是能够取得更大的学业成就。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是最后一段“For these parents, the book club is more than a reading group; it influences their children and supports their future.(对这些家长而言,读书俱乐部远不止是一个阅读团体,它影响着他们的孩子,也支持着他们的未来。)”可知,本文主要讲的是校长Torres Flores创办移民家长读书俱乐部。原本缺乏阅读能力的家长参与其中,收获成长;家长在家养成阅读习惯,进而影响孩子,让孩子受益,实现家校共赢,因此本文的主题是B选项“Parental influence plays a vital role.(家长的影响至关重要。)”。

Recently, OpenAI launched free AI image generation on ChatGPT. The Internet is now flooded with AI pictures imitating the styles of Miyazaki Hayao and other famous artists. Yet AI-generated artworks feel strangely empty to audiences. It is not simply that AI lacks originality; after all, so too does most human art.
The work produced by machines is, in an important sense, a body without soul. There is no self within the machine, and so there can be no connection or community with the other at the level of being.
Art is a unique human pursuit for everyone. It is more than a beautiful combination of colors, forms, sounds and words. As Hegel puts it, art is a sensitive expression of an idea. It is a spiritual and cultural activity. Its beauty lies in how it affects us — whether it makes us think, feel another’s pain, brings hope, or uplifts spirits. When humans create art, they pour indescribable inner feelings and personal life experiences into their works. As a process, art includes all activities and efforts which express human mentality, perceived through our senses.
This special human touch allows viewers to project their own emotions onto artworks and spiritually communicate with creators beyond the limits of language. The permanent value of art comes from the unique inner traces, feelings and life perspectives of individual creators. Art creation is essentially emotional transference. Creators convey inner true feelings, while audiences are able to understand them and find reflections of their own hidden fears and desires in works. Art bridges the inner gaps between audiences and creators with a shared language.
Machine-generated art loses its most vital power — the ability to connect people. This loss is especially harmful in an increasingly lonely world. The disappearance of such artistic connection damages personal relationships and undermines social and political stability. Our society relies on these emotional bonds. We recognize fundamental shared humanity despite our differences.
8. Why do AI-generated artworks feel empty to audience?
A. They are short of originality. B. They fail to convey messages.
C. They lack a genuine connection. D. They imitate other artists’ styles.
9. What does the true beauty of art lie in?
A. The power to touch the human souls. B. The combination of colors and words.
C. The reflection of artists’ experiences. D. The description of human activities.
10. How does art bridge the inner gaps between human beings?
A. It creates special visual effects. B. Viewers personally talk with artists.
C. It relieves viewers’ hidden fears. D. Viewers have empathy with artists.
11. What is the author’s attitude towards the wave of AI-generated art?
A. Supportive. B. Objective. C. Concerned. D. Uncertain.
【答案】8. C 9. A 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲的是AI生成的艺术品让人觉得空洞。真正的艺术承载着创作者的情感与人生体验,可以实现创作者和观众之间的精神沟通。AI艺术缺少这种人与人之间的情感联结,会对人际关系与社会情感纽带造成损害。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The work produced by machines is, in an important sense, a body without soul. There is no self within the machine, and so there can be no connection or community with the other at the level of being.(从一个重要层面来讲,机器产出的作品只是一具没有灵魂的躯壳。机器没有自我意识,因此无法在存在的层面与他人建立联结、产生精神共鸣。)”可知,AI生成的艺术品让观众感到空洞是因为它们缺少真实的情感联结。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Its beauty lies in how it affects us — whether it makes us think, feel another’s pain, brings hope, or uplifts spirits.(艺术之美在于它对我们产生的影响 —— 能否引发思考、让人感知他人的痛苦、带来希望,或是振奋人心。)”及第四段“Art creation is essentially emotional transference.(艺术创作本质上是一种情感的转移。)”可知,艺术真正的美体现在触动人类灵魂的力量。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“This special human touch allows viewers to project their own emotions onto artworks and spiritually communicate with creators beyond the limits of language.(这种独特的人文温度,能让观者将自身情感投射到作品之上,跨越语言的局限,和创作者进行精神交流。)”和“Creators convey inner true feelings, while audiences are able to understand them and find reflections of their own hidden fears and desires in works. Art bridges the inner gaps between audiences and creators with a shared language.(创作者表达内心真实的感受,而观众能够理解这些情感,并在作品中看到自己潜藏的恐惧与渴望。艺术借助共通的语言,弥合观众与创作者内心的隔阂。)”可知,艺术使观众能够产生共情,与艺术家产生情感联结,以此来消除隔阂。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Machine-generated art loses its most vital power — the ability to connect people. This loss is especially harmful in an increasingly lonely world. The disappearance of such artistic connection damages personal relationships and undermines social and political stability.(机器生成的艺术丧失了它最重要的力量 —— 连接人与人的能力。在这个愈发孤独的世界里,这种缺失尤其具有危害性。这种艺术层面精神联结的消失,会破坏人际关系,动摇社会与政治稳定。)”可知,作者指出 AI 艺术失去最重要的力量,这种缺失有害,会破坏人际关系、动摇社会稳定,因此作者对此表示担忧。

Technically, the airship is all a load of hot air, an aircraft made of a vast balloon filled with nearly weightless lifting gases. If it makes you think of old black-and-white pictures, you are right. Airships were popular at the beginning of the 20th century before airplanes took over. Now, they are making a comeback.
Though an airship, which typically flies at around 100-130km/h, won’t ever reach the speeds of a jet plane, they are being talked about as a form of slow travel like ships and night trains, where the experience makes up for the speed. The large balloon could run on electric engines, making it a zero-carbon emitting form of air transport. “Airships can stay in the air for a long time, and their ability to fly vertically (垂直) up,” said leading aviation expert Thomas Thessen.
The world’s largest aircraft, the LTA Pathfinder 1, is being tested in Silicon Valley, California. LTA is one of a handful of airship manufacturers worldwide that is ready to enter the aviation market. It believes that next generation airships can reduce the carbon footprint of aviation by using the helium (氦气) inside the balloon to do the lifting, rather than a carbon-emitting jet engine. Applications for their airship include more efficient cargo transport from port to port, and humanitarian aid, where the airship can support relief efforts by delivering supplies even if runways, roads and ports are damaged.
French company Flying Whales is also currently developing airships for cargo use, aiming to reduce the environmental impact of cargo transport, while British firm HAV is focused on how a hybrid airship, using electric engines as well as helium, can unshackle a zero-emission form of air travel.
While sustainable aviation still has a long way to go to be a mass travel solution, it all adds up to a mini revolution in the skies. Along with sustainable aviation fuel and electric planes, the new generation of airships is offering an alternative to our carbon-heavy flying.
12. How does the author account for airships’ return?
A. By listing various advantages. B. By doing scientific researches.
C. By showing outdated pictures. D. By providing enough statistics.
13. What is mainly talked about in paragraph 3?
A. A research on the LTA Pathfinder 1. B. The important status of Silicon Valley.
C. The positive outlook for future airships. D. A comparison between airships and planes.
14. Which has the closest meaning to the underlined word “unshackle” in paragraph 4?
A. Unpack. B. Unlock. C. Unload. D. Untie.
15. What does the author want to convey in the last paragraph?
A. Airships consume sustainable fuel. B. Airships see large-scale application.
C. Airships have underlying limitation. D. Airships are valuable to some extent.
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述飞艇重新回归大众视野。新一代飞艇环保低碳,具备多种实用用途;多国公司正在研发相关产品。虽然暂时无法大规模普及,但它为高碳飞行提供替代方案,是航空业的一次小型革新。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Though an airship, which typically flies at around 100-130km/h, won’t ever reach the speeds of a jet plane, they are being talked about as a form of slow travel like ships and night trains, where the experience makes up for the speed. The large balloon could run on electric engines, making it a zero-carbon emitting form of air transport.(尽管飞艇的常规飞行速度约为每小时 100 至 130 千米,永远达不到喷气式飞机的速度,但人们将它视作一种慢速旅行方式,就像轮船和夜间列车一样,独体验弥补了速度上的不足。巨大的气囊可由电力引擎驱动,使之成为一种零碳排放的航空交通工具。)”可知,作者通过列举各种优势来解释飞艇的回归。
【13题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“It believes that next generation airships can reduce the carbon footprint of aviation by using the helium (氦气) inside the balloon to do the lifting, rather than a carbon-emitting jet engine. Applications for their airship include more efficient cargo transport from port to port, and humanitarian aid, where the airship can support relief efforts by delivering supplies even if runways, roads and ports are damaged.(该公司认为,新一代飞艇依靠气囊内的氦气提供升力,而非依靠会产生碳排放的喷气发动机,能够降低航空业的碳足迹。飞艇的应用场景包括更高效的港口间货物运输以及人道主义援助 —— 即便跑道、公路和港口遭到损毁,飞艇仍可以运送物资,支援救援工作。)”可知,第三段以 LTA 公司的飞艇为例,介绍新一代飞艇可以降低航空碳足迹,可用于港口货运、人道主义物资援助,讲述飞艇广阔的用途与发展潜力,是对飞艇未来前景的乐观描述。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据倒数第二段“British firm HAV is focused on how a hybrid airship, using electric engines as well as helium(英国公司HAV专注于一种混合动力飞艇的设计,该飞艇同时使用电动发动机和氦气)”和“a zero-emission form of air travel(零排放的航空旅行方式)”可知,句中HAV公司的目标是通过混合动力飞艇,解锁一种零排放的航空旅行方式,unshackle在这里表示“开启、释放、实现”的含义,和unlock(解锁、开辟)语义最贴近
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Along with sustainable aviation fuel and electric planes, the new generation of airships is offering an alternative to our carbon-heavy flying.(新一代飞艇,连同可持续航空燃料与电动飞机一起,为我们这种高碳排放的飞行方式提供了一种替代方案。)”可知,作者在最后一段想传达的信息是飞艇在某种程度上具有价值。

【16题详解】
空前“Finding a career as a teenager can be a frightening task, but it’s an important step in preparing you for the future.(青少年时期找到一份职业可能令人感到畏惧,但这却是为未来做好准备的重要一步。)”说青少年找工作是令人畏惧但重要的,空后“It’s a long-term professional path that allows you to use your skills and hobbies to earn a living and make a huge contribution to your country.(这是一条长期的职业发展道路,让你能够运用自己的技能和爱好来谋生,并为国家作出巨大贡献。)”把职业说成比普通工作更深的东西。B项“A career is more than just a good job.(事业不仅仅是一份好工作。)”正好承上,先纠正“职业=好工作”的浅层理解,再引出后文对职业的重新定义,因此符合语境。
【17题详解】
空前“If you want to try different careers, there are countless career paths to choose from.(如果你想尝试不同的职业,有无数种职业路径可供选择。)”说职业路径多,空后“You should step out of your comfort zone and research different industries and job titles to get opportunities.(你应该走出舒适区,研究不同行业和职位,以获取机会。)”说要走出舒适区。G项“It’s important to keep an open mind as you explore your options.(在探索各种选择时,保持开放的心态非常重要。)”中的open mind与后文step out of comfort zone同义推进,且options回指前文countless career paths,因此符合语境。
【18题详解】
空前“This can involve taking relevant classes, participating in training sessions and volunteering in your community.(这包括参加相关课程、参与培训活动以及在社区中做志愿者。)”说可以去上课、参加培训、做志愿活动,空后“You should build relationships with people who have firsthand experience in the fields. Consider joining professional workshops, attending career fairs and connecting with consultants who can offer advice.(你还应与那些在相关领域拥有亲身经验的人建立联系。可以考虑参加专业工作坊、出席招聘会,或与提供职业建议的顾问取得联系。)”又说要建立联系、找有经验的人、参加工作坊。D项“Besides, getting guidance will also be rewarding.(此外,获得指导也会带来收获。)”用Besides把“技能积累”和“他人指导”并列,guidance精准对应后文consultants/people who have firsthand experience。
【19题详解】
空格处是本段主旨句,由空后“Finding a career that fits your interests and values may not happen overnight. It may take time, patience and effort to obtain the perfect job. If you stay focused and keep an open mind, you will increase your chances of finding a rewarding career.(找到符合你兴趣和价值观的职业可能不会一蹴而就。获得理想的工作需要时间、耐心和努力。如果你保持专注并保持开放的心态,就更有可能找到一份令人满意的职业。)”可知,本段主要讲的是找工作需要耐心,要有开放的心态,也就需要坚持不懈和积极的心态,A选项“Be persistent and stay positive.(坚持不懈,保持积极乐观。)”概括了本段内容,可作为主旨句。
【20题详解】
空前“By taking the time to understand your interests, developing your competence, and seeking direction from others, you can set yourself up for success.(通过花时间了解自己的兴趣、提升能力,并向他人寻求方向,你就能为自己铺平通往成功的道路。)”说明了解兴趣,提升能力并向他人寻求方向就可以为自己铺平通往成功的道路,E选项“In time, you’ll find a career that truly makes you satisfied.(假以时日,你终将找到一份真正令自己满意的职业。)”说明按前文的方法做的话你就会获得一份满意的职业,总结全文,交代一个结果,因此符合语境。

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。
Alan McKenzie was coming down a mountain bike trail on a Sunday morning when he became aware of an ache in the middle of his chest. At the time, he was working as a specialist anaesthetist (麻醉师) with years of experience, so he immediately recognized the significance of the sensation. He was having a heart attack — halfway down a mountain, somewhere an ambulance would not be able to reach him.
He knew that to have any chance of making it out alive, he had to get himself down to the car park. So he coasted on his bike to the bottom of the trail, every bump in the path sending waves of central chest pain through his body. He made it to his car, pulled out his phone with trembling fingers, and called for an ambulance. The dispatcher (调度员) told him to stay where he was and keep still.
Quickly starting to feel worse, Alan lay down on the ground next to his car so that the paramedics (急救人员) would be able to spot him when they arrived. The world around him continued as if nothing had changed. He could hear the wheels of other mountain bikes skidding past him in the car park as people headed home or off to new trails. One bike passed. Then another. Then a third. Nobody stopped. Feeling increasingly faint, Alan wondered if anyone would notice him at all before the ambulance arrived.
Then, through the haze of pain, he heard a voice. “Hey, are you OK?” A cyclist had stopped and was standing over him, a concerned face Alan could barely make out. Alan managed to say that he thought he was having a heart attack, but that the ambulance was on its way. The stranger crouched down beside him and said simply, “We will wait with you until it gets here.”
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 Soon, Alan heard ambulance sirens rapidly getting closer. The stranger stood up and waved wildly to guide the ambulance to their position. Paramedics rushed over, quickly carrying out emergency checks and giving Alan first aid. While the medical staff worked, the cyclist comforted Alan, telling him everything would be fine. Alan, weak but relieved, tried to ask for his name. However, the stranger just smiled and said he only did what anyone should do, then quietly left before Alan could get more information.
Eventually back home, Alan found his bike parked against the wall. The painful memory of the heart attack and the cold indifference of other passing cyclists flooded into his mind, yet the thought of that warm stranger brightened his heart. He felt grateful for the unknown cyclist who stayed with him in his darkest moment. Alan decided to pass on this kindness. Whenever he meets someone in trouble outdoors, he will stop and offer help, just like that mysterious cyclist did for him.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了麻醉师Alan在骑山地自行车下山途中突发心脏病,他拼尽全力挪到停车场,拨打急救电话。许多骑行者从他身旁经过却无人驻足,就在他愈发虚弱时,一位陌生骑行者停下脚步,陪伴他等待救护车到来的故事。

Maria Onate had not read a book until her son started high school. Her parents ended her education when she was 15 to prepare her for marriage and work.
Decades later, at her son’s new high school, she joined a book club for immigrant parents. Maria’s early hesitation turned into enthusiasm shortly after she attended the book club meetings, where she and 15 other Latina mothers passionately discussed novels.
Principal Torres Flores started the club. She noticed that parents’ involvement directly influenced students’ attitudes toward reading. Initially, like Maria, only a few parents joined the club, doubting their ability to read at a high level. Over time, the group grew to a core of 15 regular members, mostly mothers, who proudly call themselves lifelong learners.
The book club meetings are an extension of the parents’ involvement in their children’s education. The book club often discusses stories that provide a valuable reference for family life. For example, The Diary of a Young Girl inspired perseverance, while Rain of Gold sparked deep discussions about family and tradition.
Beyond reading, the club empowers them to take on leadership roles at school and share their love of books at home. The schedule for the book club is tight, but the mothers still find time to attend. They even organize activities for other parents and contribute to the school’s energetic community.
The positive impact extends to their families. Parents who once spent weekends watching TV now enjoy reading with their children. Research shows that having books at home has a positive effect on children’s studies. For many, the club has inspired them to create personal libraries, fostering a culture of learning.
Torres Flores believes these efforts benefit both parents and students. Parents feel more confident and connected to the school, while students see the value of education.
At the end of a meeting, the group selects a new book to read together, often choosing stories that offer lessons they can apply to their families. For these parents, the book club is more than a reading group; it influences their children and supports their future.
4. Why did Maria hesitate to join the book club initially?
A. Her parents discouraged her. B. She was an immigrant parent.
C. Only a few parents joined it. D. It was beyond her reading ability.
5. What’s the main purpose of Torres starting the book club?
A. To strengthen parents’ modelling influence. B. To develop parents’ communication skills.
C. To have parents teach children how to read. D. To discuss children’s problems with parents.
6. How do students benefit from the book club?
A. They will enjoy powerful family libraries. B. They can achieve greater academic success.
C. They will be invited to manage a school. D. They can learn how to organize activities.
7. What is the main theme of the passage?
A. Many hands make light work. B. Parental influence plays a vital role.
C. Hard work eventually bears fruit. D. Reading is what makes a difference.

Recently, OpenAI launched free AI image generation on ChatGPT. The Internet is now flooded with AI pictures imitating the styles of Miyazaki Hayao and other famous artists. Yet AI-generated artworks feel strangely empty to audiences. It is not simply that AI lacks originality; after all, so too does most human art.
The work produced by machines is, in an important sense, a body without soul. There is no self within the machine, and so there can be no connection or community with the other at the level of being.
Art is a unique human pursuit for everyone. It is more than a beautiful combination of colors, forms, sounds and words. As Hegel puts it, art is a sensitive expression of an idea. It is a spiritual and cultural activity. Its beauty lies in how it affects us — whether it makes us think, feel another’s pain, brings hope, or uplifts spirits. When humans create art, they pour indescribable inner feelings and personal life experiences into their works. As a process, art includes all activities and efforts which express human mentality, perceived through our senses.
This special human touch allows viewers to project their own emotions onto artworks and spiritually communicate with creators beyond the limits of language. The permanent value of art comes from the unique inner traces, feelings and life perspectives of individual creators. Art creation is essentially emotional transference. Creators convey inner true feelings, while audiences are able to understand them and find reflections of their own hidden fears and desires in works. Art bridges the inner gaps between audiences and creators with a shared language.
Machine-generated art loses its most vital power — the ability to connect people. This loss is especially harmful in an increasingly lonely world. The disappearance of such artistic connection damages personal relationships and undermines social and political stability. Our society relies on these emotional bonds. We recognize fundamental shared humanity despite our differences.
8. Why do AI-generated artworks feel empty to audience?
A. They are short of originality. B. They fail to convey messages.
C. They lack a genuine connection. D. They imitate other artists’ styles.
9. What does the true beauty of art lie in?
A. The power to touch the human souls. B. The combination of colors and words.
C. The reflection of artists’ experiences. D. The description of human activities.
10. How does art bridge the inner gaps between human beings?
A. It creates special visual effects. B. Viewers personally talk with artists.
C. It relieves viewers’ hidden fears. D. Viewers have empathy with artists.
11. What is the author’s attitude towards the wave of AI-generated art?
A. Supportive. B. Objective. C. Concerned. D. Uncertain.
D
Technically, the airship is all a load of hot air, an aircraft made of a vast balloon filled with nearly weightless lifting gases. If it makes you think of old black-and-white pictures, you are right. Airships were popular at the beginning of the 20th century before airplanes took over. Now, they are making a comeback.
Though an airship, which typically flies at around 100-130km/h, won’t ever reach the speeds of a jet plane, they are being talked about as a form of slow travel like ships and night trains, where the experience makes up for the speed. The large balloon could run on electric engines, making it a zero-carbon emitting form of air transport. “Airships can stay in the air for a long time, and their ability to fly vertically (垂直) up,” said leading aviation expert Thomas Thessen.
The world’s largest aircraft, the LTA Pathfinder 1, is being tested in Silicon Valley, California. LTA is one of a handful of airship manufacturers worldwide that is ready to enter the aviation market. It believes that next generation airships can reduce the carbon footprint of aviation by using the helium (氦气) inside the balloon to do the lifting, rather than a carbon-emitting jet engine. Applications for their airship include more efficient cargo transport from port to port, and humanitarian aid, where the airship can support relief efforts by delivering supplies even if runways, roads and ports are damaged.
French company Flying Whales is also currently developing airships for cargo use, aiming to reduce the environmental impact of cargo transport, while British firm HAV is focused on how a hybrid airship, using electric engines as well as helium, can unshackle a zero-emission form of air travel.
While sustainable aviation still has a long way to go to be a mass travel solution, it all adds up to a mini revolution in the skies. Along with sustainable aviation fuel and electric planes, the new generation of airships is offering an alternative to our carbon-heavy flying.
12. How does the author account for airships’ return?
A. By listing various advantages. B. By doing scientific researches.
C. By showing outdated pictures. D. By providing enough statistics.
13. What is mainly talked about in paragraph 3?
A. A research on the LTA Pathfinder 1. B. The important status of Silicon Valley.
C. The positive outlook for future airships. D. A comparison between airships and planes.
14. Which has the closest meaning to the underlined word “unshackle” in paragraph 4?
A. Unpack. B. Unlock. C. Unload. D. Untie.
15. What does the author want to convey in the last paragraph?

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。
Alan McKenzie was coming down a mountain bike trail on a Sunday morning when he became aware of an ache in the middle of his chest. At the time, he was working as a specialist anaesthetist (麻醉师) with years of experience, so he immediately recognized the significance of the sensation. He was having a heart attack — halfway down a mountain, somewhere an ambulance would not be able to reach him.
He knew that to have any chance of making it out alive, he had to get himself down to the car park. So he coasted on his bike to the bottom of the trail, every bump in the path sending waves of central chest pain through his body. He made it to his car, pulled out his phone with trembling fingers, and called for an ambulance. The dispatcher (调度员) told him to stay where he was and keep still.
Quickly starting to feel worse, Alan lay down on the ground next to his car so that the paramedics (急救人员) would be able to spot him when they arrived. The world around him continued as if nothing had changed. He could hear the wheels of other mountain bikes skidding past him in the car park as people headed home or off to new trails. One bike passed. Then another. Then a third. Nobody stopped. Feeling increasingly faint, Alan wondered if anyone would notice him at all before the ambulance arrived.
Then, through the haze of pain, he heard a voice. “Hey, are you OK?” A cyclist had stopped and was standing over him, a concerned face Alan could barely make out. Alan managed to say that he thought he was having a heart attack, but that the ambulance was on its way. The stranger crouched down beside him and said simply, “We will wait with you until it gets here.”
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。
Soon, Alan heard ambulance sirens rapidly getting closer.

Eventually back home, Alan found his bike parked against the wall.
