B On a clear sunny day on the Georgia coast,ecotour guide Rene Heidt leads her guests on her boat through a narrow waterway.Unbroken grasses reach overhead,and there's no building,power line,or cell tower in sight. It's a perfect location for visitors to view a nearby mudflat ()where roughly 300,000 shorebirds,including the roseate spoonbill and the whimbrel,come to eat,rest,and nest every year. Heidt has had a 15-year career as an ecotour guide and much of what she shares on the tours comes from her experiences.But more recently,the University of Georgia's Coastal Awareness and Responsible Ecotourism (CARE)certification (program has been designed to support ecotour guides like Heidt,helping improve the information they share with tourists. The program offers up-to-date educational material and training to ecotour guides and provides certification that confirms their devotion to preserving the habitats. While providing knowledge about Georgia's natural resources,the CARE program also discusses how to visit some sensitive areas responsibly. Now,when Heidt gives boating tours,she rows with a light touch,moving almost silently across the water.When she shares facts about wildlife with her guests,she doesn't speak louder than whispers.Actually,it's a skill Heidt must have perfected in her previous career."The program changes the way I give tours.It helps me be more mindful of a boat's influence on the very thing we are trying to teach people about,"she recalled. Getting trained through the CARE program also benefits Heidt's business.According to Heidt,the program allows her to learn more about this environment.And that's knowledge she passes along to her guests."It's a 卷14答案D33Q英语 fantastic coast,she says."And it's important to share its beauty with others to help them realize that it is worth protecting." 24.Why was the CARE program launched?

Stop the eye-rolling because yeah,we know electronic payments are quicker to make,authorize and complete,and they're easier to track and report.They save paper and are good for the environment.They're more secure,efficient and cost less.They can be made and approved from anywhere,A growing number of businesses not only prefer electronic payments,but are requiring customers to do this.Even Microsoft recently announced that it would no longer accept paper cheques from its partners. But still...I'm going to miss the paper cheque.I've always enjoyed the circumstance of the biweekly cheque run and the grandest part is the final approval evidenced by the ultimate proof of authority:the signature.Some of my clients take delight in the opportunity to examine and sign every cheque because there's no better example of power than this.Paper cheques are not only a written form of contracts favored by firms throughout history but also a form of marketing where companies can proudly display their logos.They are clear evidence of stability and reliability. Unfortunately,the writing is on the wall for the paper cheque.And that makes me sad.According to the Small Business Administration,the majority of small business owners are over the age of 50.We grew up with Swanson TV Dinners,hockey without helmets (and appointed smoking sections in airplanes.We'll retire and younger generations will bury us along with our chequebooks.

D For decades,"simpler is better"has been accepted as a universal truth in marketing.Nick Light,assistant professor of marketing at the UO Lundquist College of Business,has tested that assumption.He found that most consumers prefer offerings that appear to be easy to use and understand.However,pushing simplicity can have a hidden,costly downside. "Simplicity is not a silver bullet,"Light said.This method might work for established companies with track records to back up their claims.But it can be risky for a start-up with no history or a company in a complicated market category where failures or breakdowns are more common. Light's earlier experience stimulated his interest in the study.He was a marketing manager at a direct-to-consumer mattress (company.With the catchword "one perfect mattress",the company offered only one mattress model shipped directly to the consumer's door,dramatically simplifying the mattress-buying process."Some customers calling with even minor problems such as a slight discoloration in the material,would get really angry,"Light said."They would say things like,'I don't understand what's so difficult about this,'even when producing and shipping mattresses are quite complex.These customers were getting overly upset because the product and process had been labeled as simple. The study also showed that consumers judged the complexity of brands or products based on their mental connections.For example,when study participants viewed advertisements for two different companies,they formed mental pictures of the simplicity or complexity of the brand depending on how plain or busy the art was and the details provided in each ad. Light also looked into product quality and customer opinions and found that consumers are less likely to recommend simpler brands after failures compared to more complex brands.Therefore,the lesson for marketers is to be more careful about building branding and advertising strategies around simplicity,because they could easily backfire if the product or service fails to deliver. 32.What does the underlined words "a silver bullet"in paragraph 2 mean? A.A risky investment. B.A business strategy. C.A quick-fix method. D.A cure-all solution. 33.What did the use of simplicity in the mattress business lead to? A.Rising customer dissatisfaction. B.Reduced expenses for producers C.Longer transport time for goods. D.More comments from customers. 34.What might mainly influence consumers'views on a brand according to the study? A.The company's historical background. B.The impressions shaped by ad design. C.The advertising reviews on its website. D.The richness of color in its packaging. 35.What advice does the author give to marketers? A.Advertise after-sale customer service. B.Be cautious about simplicity-themed efforts. C.Stress product quality over simplicity. D.Improve brand presence through social media. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选 项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 When I was in primary school,,reading index cards(索引卡)under the guidance of our librarian was how my classmates and I located the books we wanted and entered the world of ideas.It was amazing.36 Then the same librarian explained that book-locating information was also available on a website.We could select books without even leaving our chairs. 37 The librarian was not confident that the new technology would last.So,as kids,we kept one foot planted in each world,learning the digital landscape while also physically exploring libraries. Throughout educational history,new tools have been accepted, rejected,or ignored.Digital card catalogues (are an example of tools that facilitate learning,leading many schools to adopt a generally friendly attitude toward new technologies.38 Some tools negatively affect our learning,the most recent example being ChatGPT. ChatGPT is an artificial intelligence (Al)chatbot that can respond to the questions one asks,drawing on stores of information and its interactions with other users.Where ChatGPT impacts education is in completing tasks assigned to students.Students can quit thinking-allowing ChatGPT to digest difficult readings on their behalf.39 But learning to write is learning to think.Thinking is something we need to grow and progress as human beings.40 ChatGPT and related technologies destroy this important task.I recommend that students resist employing them in the context of reading and writing if they wish to be transformed by their learning. A.Sure,AI can do these tasks for us. B.Education is meant to shape a person. C.But not all tools are equally constructive. D.They can also ask it to construct essays assigned by professors. E.If allowed to have access to AI-based tools,no one would ever think. F.However,this whole process seemed disappointing the very next day.
