From a young age, I collected role models. In school, as a teenager, I tried to channel Whitney Houston. In the working world, I paid close attention to our female senior managers. By watching and imitating others-especially women of color who looked or sounded like me-I gained confidence in my own abilities.
But when I started my own company, my pool of role models became smaller. Only 2.1% of risk investment goes to women-founded companies. “Who can I look up to?” I wondered. “Who can I learn from?” I decided to create an inspiration wall in my office, with photos of the role models I could see-women like Oprah, Michelle Obama, and Vicky, co-founder of a skincare brand. I never thought I’d meet these women, but their success gave me hope.
Then one day, a couple of years ago, I surprised myself with a thought: what if I did reach out to one of my role models? I feared rejection, but my desire for connection was stronger. I chose Vicky, whose journey had long inspired me. I didn’t have her email address. So I tried a cold Instagram message, and she responded the next day!
That was in 2022. We’ve spoken numerous times since, and the conversations have been invaluable. They’re rare chances to gain guidance from a successful woman. But here’s the most valuable lesson I gained: when Vicky first replied to me, I wasn’t the only one excited. Vicky was excited too-because she’s always looking for ways to support other women. All my life, I’d thought of role models as a one-way relationship: I’d gain strength from someone stronger. But the situation is more than that.
I once sent Vicky a care package from my sunglasses company. She wrote me a thank-you note, and texted a selfie of her and her daughter wearing my products. Today, I keep that letter on my desk next to my keyboard—a reminder that just as I believe in her, she believes in me. We’re all here to help each other grow.
4. How did the author build up her confidence?
A. By cooperating with women of color. B. By observing and copying her models.
C. By making friends with persons like her. D. By starting her own sunglasses company.
5. What is the author’s intention of creating an inspiration wall in her office?
A. To inspire her employees’ creativity. B. To make her workplace more attractive.
C. To encourage herself to achieve success. D. To improve her employees’ work efficiency.
6. Why did the author choose to reach out to Vicky?
A. She was afraid of being rejected. B. She only had Vicky’s email address.
C. Vicky’s story had always motivated her. D. Vicky liked giving guidance to other women.
7. What can be concluded according to the text?
A. Practice makes perfect. B. Strength flows both ways.
C. A good beginning is half done. D. Actions speak louder than words.

As California faces a huge budget shortfall, library card holders may soon lose the ability to check out free passes to more than 200 state parks, including popular destinations near Los Angeles.
The governmental budget for the upcoming year does not include money for what’s known as the California State Library Parks Pass, which was launched two years ago to provide more fair access to the outdoors. “If the program were to end, it would be sad because obviously some of our supporters are really enjoying using the passes,” said Mary Cocking, a clerk at the San Francisco Public Library.
In April 2022, the California State Library and California State Parks launched the three-year pilot program, handing out the passes to all public library branches across the state including mobile libraries. California State Parks said in a statement that it was “very proud” of the program, but did not indicate that a revised budget would add money to extend the program.
With the library program at risk, the CSP Foundation, a large advocacy group, has raised a battle cry to try to save it, writing to the government and launching a campaign that’s got 1,800 signatures. Rachel Norton, executive director of the foundation, said funding for the project was “a drop in the bucket” relative to the state’s proposed $291.5 billion budget.
As of last year, each library branch in California had an average of 24 parking tags, up from an initial four, state officials said. Cocking said San Francisco has 611 passes in circulation, a number that increased significantly last year. Librarians said the passes are especially popular in the spring and summer, when warm weather and vacations draw people to the Golden State’s great outdoors. “It’s like travel books.” Cocking said. “Travel books sit on the shelf a lot of the year, and then as it gets closer to summer, they’re all checked out.”
8. What was the California State Library Parks Pass launched for?
A. Promoting tourism B. Increasing incomes.
C. Reducing library visitors. D. Accessing outdoor spaces.
9. What does the underlined part “a drop in the bucket” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Large and significant amount. B. Very small or insignificant part.
C. Critical investment for the future. D. Wasteful and unnecessary expense.
10. Why does Cocking mention travel books in the last paragraph?
A. To show the similar seasonal popularity.
B. To criticize the low usage of park passes.
C. To note the decreasing demand for travel books.
D. To illustrate the increasing popularity of park passes.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. California faces budget crisis. B. Libraries may lose park passes.
C. California funded for park passes. D. Library program was well-received.
D
A self-driving robot has been introduced recently. This robot is useful because it takes over regular monitoring tasks from police officers. This lets the officers focus on other important jobs related to keeping the community safe. As a live monitoring system, it allows people at the communication center to watch the camera feeds in real time.
The robot has four cameras built into it, and they keep recording all the time. So, wherever the robot goes, it collects all the visual and surrounding information. This makes sure it gathers complete data(数据) when it is being used. Besides, the robot is able to read license plates(车牌号码) by itself so it can recognise and record the cars in parking areas, which helps track cars easily.
Another important part of the robot is an easy-to-use button. If people need help or want to get in touch with the communication center, they can simply press the button. On the other side, security(安全) workers watch the system all the time. They can send messages through the robot to those who pressed the button. If something bad happens, the police can see the situation right away through the robot’s cameras. Then they can come quickly to check what is going on.
The self-driving robot gave a good performance at a conference, which made people think it could be used in parks, since there have been more worries about park safety lately.
The robot moves along a pre-set path, but this path can be changed to meet different needs.For example, it can be adjusted(调整) when there are special events or when the safety needs of the park change. To keep people safe when they are near the robot, the robot is made to stop for a short time if it senses someone getting too close. All the data from the robot, including the video recordings, is saved. If a dangerous event happens, these recordings can be looked at later. This helps work out what happened step by step.
12. What is one function of the robot’s cameras?
A. They record continuously to collect data.
B. They recognise users by their facial features.
C. They send out safety warnings in crowded areas.
D. They allow the public to control the robot’s movement.
13. What is the third paragraph mainly about?
A. The details of the robot’s camera system.
B. The robot’s ability to deal with large amounts of data.
C. The history of robotic development for security purposes.
D. The communication between the public and security workers.
14. Why did people consider using the robot in parks?
A. To attract more visitors. B. To raise safety levels.
C. To take the place of human workers. D. To meet the government’s requirements.
15. Which can be the best title for the text?
A. The Rise of Modern Policing
B. New Technologies Are Changing Lifestyle
C. The Development of Robots in Event Management
D. The Self-Driving Robot Is Improving Public Security

The family had been on the road for nearly six hours. Leo, his wife Elena, and their seven-year-old daughter Mia were driving back from a weekend trip. The GPS showed they still had two hours to go. Eager to get home earlier, Leo decided to take a less traveled country road as a shortcut (捷径).
It was past ten at night. The road was narrow, with thick woods on both sides and no streetlights. Mia had fallen asleep in the back seat, holding her favorite stuffed rabbit tightly. Leo and Elena were chatting about the trip when suddenly — BANG.
The car slid to one side suddenly. Leo struggled to pull over to the road shoulder. “A flat tire (爆胎),” he said, his voice tense. He got out and saw the rear left tire completely broken. “I don’t know how this happened. There’s no spare (备用) — we used it last month and never replaced it.” “Dial 911,” Elena reminded, but both their phones showed zero bars.
Elena’s face turned pale. Trapped on the lonely country road, they had no choice but to look for a garage (修车店) nearby, yet the nearest town with a functional garage was at least fifteen miles away. The night air was cold, and the only sound was the wind. Mia woke up and started crying softly. “Daddy, I’m scared.” “It’s okay, sweetheart. We’ll be fine,” Leo said, but his voice gave away his worry. He turned on the car’s hazard lights (双闪), hoping that someone would pass by and offer them a helping hand.
Twenty minutes passed. Then forty. No cars came. Elena wrapped her arms around Mia, trying to keep her calm. “What if nobody comes?” she whispered to Leo. He didn’t answer. He feared the worst: losing power, and Mia falling ill from the bitter cold on such a cold night.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;

Just as hope began to fade, a pair of headlights (车头灯) appeared.

【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章介绍了美国加州因预算短缺,可能终止“加州图书馆公园通行证”项目,该项目为公众提供免费进入州立公园的机会,深受民众欢迎。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The governmental budget for the upcoming year does not include money for what’s known as the California State Library Parks Pass, which was launched two years ago to provide more fair access to the outdoors.(政府明年的预算不包括所谓的“加州州立图书馆公园通行证”,该通行证于两年前推出,旨在提供更公平的户外活动机会)”可知,加州州立图书馆公园通行证旨在提供更公平的户外空间使用权。故选D。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词组所在句“Rachel Norton, executive director of the foundation, said funding for the project was “a drop in the bucket” relative to the state’s proposed $291.5 billion budget.(该基金会的执行董事Rachel Norton表示,与该州提出的2915亿美元预算相比,该项目的资金只是““a drop in the bucket”)”可知,2915亿美元数额巨大,因此推断此处表示相对于整个州预算,该项目的资金微不足道,与very small or insignificant part (很小的或微不足道的部分)意思接近。故选B。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的““It’s like travel books.” Cocking said. “Travel books sit on the shelf a lot of the year, and then as it gets closer to summer, they’re all checked out.”(“就像旅游书一样。”Cocking说。“一年中很多时候,旅行书都被放在书架上,然后随着夏天的临近,它们都被借走了。”)”可知,这与公园通行证在夏季被大量借出的情况相似。由此推知,最后一段提到旅行书是为了说明两者都具有季节性流行的特点。故选A。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“As California faces a huge budget shortfall, library card holders may soon lose the ability to checkout free passes to more than 200 state parks, including popular destinations near Los Angeles.(由于加州面临巨大的预算缺口,图书馆卡持有者可能很快就会失去200多个州立公园的免费通行证,包括洛杉矶附近的热门景点)”及下文内容可知,全文围绕“加州图书馆可能因预算问题失去公园通行证项目”展开。由此可知,B项Libraries may lose park passes(图书馆可能会失去公园通行证)准确概括了文章核心内容,适合作本文标题。故选B。
D
A self-driving robot has been introduced recently. This robot is useful because it takes over regular monitoring tasks from police officers. This lets the officers focus on other important jobs related to keeping the community safe. As a live monitoring system, it allows people at the communication center to watch the camera feeds in real time.
The robot has four cameras built into it, and they keep recording all the time. So, wherever the robot goes, it collects all the visual and surrounding information. This makes sure it gathers complete data(数据) when it is being used. Besides, the robot is able to read license plates(车牌号码) by itself so it can recognise and record the cars in parking areas, which helps track cars easily.
Another important part of the robot is an easy-to-use button. If people need help or want to get in touch with the communication center, they can simply press the button. On the other side, security(安全) workers watch the system all the time. They can send messages through the robot to those who pressed the button. If something bad happens, the police can see the situation right away through the robot’s cameras. Then they can come quickly to check what is going on.
The self-driving robot gave a good performance at a conference, which made people think it could be used in parks, since there have been more worries about park safety lately.
The robot moves along a pre-set path, but this path can be changed to meet different needs.For example, it can be adjusted(调整) when there are special events or when the safety needs of the park change. To keep people safe when they are near the robot, the robot is made to stop for a short time if it senses someone getting too close. All the data from the robot, including the video recordings, is saved. If a dangerous event happens, these recordings can be looked at later. This helps work out what happened step by step.
12. What is one function of the robot’s cameras?
A. They record continuously to collect data.
B. They recognise users by their facial features.
C. They send out safety warnings in crowded areas.
D. They allow the public to control the robot’s movement.
13. What is the third paragraph mainly about?
A. The details of the robot’s camera system.
B. The robot’s ability to deal with large amounts of data.
C. The history of robotic development for security purposes.
D. The communication between the public and security workers.
14. Why did people consider using the robot in parks?
A. To attract more visitors. B. To raise safety levels.
C. To take the place of human workers. D. To meet the government’s requirements.
15. Which can be the best title for the text?
A. The Rise of Modern Policing
B. New Technologies Are Changing Lifestyle
C. The Development of Robots in Event Management
D. The Self-Driving Robot Is Improving Public Security
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. B 15. D
【解析】

【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“The robot has four cameras built into it, and they keep recording all the time. So, wherever the robot goes, it collects all the visual and surrounding information.( 这个机器人内置了四个摄像头,它们一直在记录。所以,无论机器人走到哪里,它都会收集所有的视觉和周围信息。)”可知,机器人摄像头的一个功能是它们不停地记录以收集数据。故选A项。
【13题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“Another important part of the robot is an easy-to-use button. If people need help or want to get in touch with the communication center, they can simply press the button. On the other side, security workers watch the system all the time. They can send messages through the robot to those who pressed the button. If something bad happens, the police can see the situation right away through the robot’s cameras. Then they can come quickly to check what is going on.( 机器人的另一个重要部分是一个易于使用的按钮。如果人们需要帮助或想与通讯中心取得联系,他们只需按下按钮。另一方面,保安人员一直在监视系统。他们可以通过机器人向按下按钮的人发送信息。如果发生了不好的事情,警察可以通过机器人的摄像头立即看到情况。然后他们可以很快地来检查发生了什么。)”可知,第三段主要讲的是公众与安保人员的沟通方式。故选D项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“The self-driving robot gave a good performance at a conference, which made people think it could be used in parks, since there have been more worries about park safety lately.( 自动驾驶机器人在一次会议上表现出色,这让人们认为它可以在公园里使用,因为最近对公园安全的担忧越来越多。)”可知,人们会考虑在公园里使用机器人是为了提升安全水平。故选B项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及第一段“A self-driving robot has been introduced recently. This robot is useful because it takes over regular monitoring tasks from police officers. This lets the officers focus on other important jobs related to keeping the community safe. As a live monitoring system, it allows people at the communication center to watch the camera feeds in real time.( 最近推出了自动驾驶机器人。这个机器人很有用,因为它接替了警察的日常监视任务。这使得警察可以专注于其他与维护社区安全有关的重要工作。作为一个实时监控系统,它可以让通信中心的人们实时观看摄像头的画面。)”可知,文章围绕“自动驾驶机器人”展开,先后介绍其功能(替代警察监控、实时传数据、车牌识别、便捷沟通)、在公园的应用设想及安全设计,核心是“机器人对公共安全的提升作用”。故文章最佳的标题是“自动驾驶机器人正在改善公共安全”。故选D项。

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。
The family had been on the road for nearly six hours. Leo, his wife Elena, and their seven-year-old daughter Mia were driving back from a weekend trip. The GPS showed they still had two hours to go. Eager to get home earlier, Leo decided to take a less traveled country road as a shortcut (捷径).
It was past ten at night. The road was narrow, with thick woods on both sides and no streetlights. Mia had fallen asleep in the back seat, holding her favorite stuffed rabbit tightly. Leo and Elena were chatting about the trip when suddenly — BANG.
The car slid to one side suddenly. Leo struggled to pull over to the road shoulder. “A flat tire (爆胎),” he said, his voice tense. He got out and saw the rear left tire completely broken. “I don’t know how this happened. There’s no spare (备用) — we used it last month and never replaced it.” “Dial 911,” Elena reminded, but both their phones showed zero bars.
Elena’s face turned pale. Trapped on the lonely country road, they had no choice but to look for a garage (修车店) nearby, yet the nearest town with a functional garage was at least fifteen miles away. The night air was cold, and the only sound was the wind. Mia woke up and started crying softly. “Daddy, I’m scared.” “It’s okay, sweetheart. We’ll be fine,” Leo said, but his voice gave away his worry. He turned on the car’s hazard lights (双闪), hoping that someone would pass by and offer them a helping hand.
Twenty minutes passed. Then forty. No cars came. Elena wrapped her arms around Mia, trying to keep her calm. “What if nobody comes?” she whispered to Leo. He didn’t answer. He feared the worst: losing power, and Mia falling ill from the bitter cold on such a cold night.

【答案】
Just as hope began to fade, a pair of headlights (车头灯) appeared. A wave of excitement flooded over Leo when he caught sight of a truck approaching in the distance. He waved wildly at the approaching truck to stop it. The truck pulled over, and a middle-aged man stepped out. Learning about their trouble, the driver said, “Don’t worry. I’ll take you to the garage in town and tow your car there.” Elena helped Mia into the warm cab, and the driver shared his blanket with the little girl. As the truck started towing their broken car, Leo breathed a sigh of relief.
Towing the broken car, they finally arrived at the garage with the truck driver’s help. The mechanic, though sleepy, replaced the damaged tire with a new one. While waiting, the driver bought Mia a hot chocolate, and her smile finally returned. Leo offered him money, but he refused, saying, “Helping each other is what we do on the road.” After paying for the tire, Leo thanked him sincerely again. With the car fixed, they drove home as dawn approached. Looking at his sleeping daughter, Leo felt warm inside — a shortcut brought trouble, but kindness lit up the darkest night.
