Lying in the Mexican state of Oaxaca, the fishing village Huatulco is home to nine bays, 36 beaches and thousands of baby turtles that apparently needed me. I had three open days on my calendar, and a desire to save some turtles. And so, away I went to Huatulco with Wildcoast, a group of champions-for-change who were protecting coastal and marine ecosystem in the U. S. and Mexico.
I was taken to La Escobilla to experience Wildcoast in action. Just one hour north of Huatulco, this protected beach is where mass turtle nesting happens. This natural phenomenon lasts just four days during rainy season, hundreds of thousands of female sea turtles swinging their way ashore to lay their eggs.
Between threats of dogs, crabs, development and oil spills, the little creatures have the whole world against them. As recently as 2002, turtles hunting was not only a common practice, but an important part of the culture and diet in the Oaxaca communities. Luckily, Wild coast rescues turtle eggs and recreates habitats by monitoring temperatures and humidity. Thanks to their efforts, the sea turtles have made a major comeback, with now over 72 million turtles being born on the beaches that Wildcoast protects.
I got to hold 50 of the tiny creatures in a bowl. Despite an average laying of 100 eggs, just one in 1,000 baby turtles will make it to adulthood. Gazing into the bowl, I so badly wanted them to taste the sea and find shelter somewhere deep in the ocean. Finally, it was time to liberate those little creatures. Out spilled the creatures, some moving full steam ahead while others barely paddled in place. Literally, hundreds of them began to spread out across the beach.
With each set of waves, we witnessed the survival of the fittest, some pushing past the white wash while others crashed back to shore. Their fight for life made my eyes wet. A flock of birds were ready to dive into the sea for their moving targets. “One in 1,000.” Nature was cruel and compassionate at the same time. After 30 long minutes, the last creature made his way to the sea.
24. The baby turtles are threatened by various factors EXCEPT ______.
A. the cruel hunters B. the rapid development
C. the extreme weather D. the oil-polluted ocean
25. What do the underlined words “full steam ahead” in paragraph 4 mean
A. With slow pace and fear. B. With all energy and enthusiasm.
C. With full caution and curiosity. D. With great satisfaction and responsibility.
26. What does the author indicate by mentioning “One in 1,000” in the last paragraph
A. One baby turtle in 1,000 can make his way to the sea.
B. Thousands of baby turtles were crashed back to shore.
C. The struggle of baby turtles for life touched the author.
D. Baby turtles can hardly survive the tough living conditions.
27. What can we learn from the author’s experience in saving baby turtles
A. Think twice before you leap. B. God helps those who help themselves.
C. Cease to struggle and you cease to live. D. When the buying stops, the killing can too.
C
Reunions offer a chance to reflect on how much has changed. One happened in Hollywood when Here premiered (首映), bringing together the actors, director and writer behind Forrest Gump 40 years later for a new film. The stars were “de-aged” using new AI tools, making them more youthful in some scenes and enabling the filmmakers to see the transformation in real time while shooting.
With the use of generative AI in film making come things worth watching. The first is how AI will be used to tell new types of stories, as storytelling becomes more personalised and interactive. No one is quite sure how the nature of storytelling will change, but it is sure to. David Thomson, a film historian, compares generative AI to the advent (问世) of sound. When movies were no longer silent, it changed the way plot points were made and how deeply viewers could connect with characters. Cristóbal Valenzuela, who runs a company providing AI-enhanced software, says AI is like a “new kind of camera”, offering a fresh “opportunity to reimagine what stories are like”. Both are right.
Another big development to watch is how AI will be used as a time-saving tool. Generative AI will automate and simplify complex tasks like film-editing and special effects. For a glimpse of the future, watch Everything Everywhere All at Once, which won the Academy Award for Best Picture in 2023. It featured a scene that used a “rotoscoping” tool to edit out the green-screen background and make a talking rock more believable. It shortened into hours what might have otherwise taken days of video-editing.
What is also noticeable is more dramatic conflicts between creators and those running AI platforms. This year is likely to bring floods of lawsuits (诉讼) from authors, musicians and actors about how their works have been used to train AI systems without permission or payment. Perhaps they can agree on some sort of licensing arrangement, in which AI companies start paying copyright-holders.
It will probably be a few years before a full-length film is produced entirely by AI, but it is just a matter of time.
28. What can we learn about the film Here
A. It relates a story about youth. B. The theme of the film is reunion.
C. AI tools are employed in the film. D. It is adapted from Forrest Gump.
29. What does David think of AI’s application in film making
A. Transformative. B. Destructive. C. Representative. D. Irreplaceable.
30. Why does the author mention the film Everything Everywhere All at Once
A. To show the high efficiency of AI tools. B. To analyse a novel way of video-editing.
C. To demonstrate the influence of the film. D. To praise the hard work behind the scenes.
31. What is the article mainly about
A. Conflicts between man and machine. B. AI’s huge effects on film production.
C. Drawbacks of dependence on AI tools. D. Hot debate on the use of technology.
D
Turning around corners, weaving through traffic, every second matters. It is neither a street race nor a 007 chase, but the risky journey of a sushi roll.
The streets of China are filled with delivery drivers racing noodles, sandwiches and soups across cities. While the everyday consumer may find these services convenient, most do not realize the true cost of their delivery. How much is that late-night snack really worth
Strict time limits are the main concern for delivery drivers. The Chinese delivery app Meituan decreased the maximum time allowance from 50 minutes to 30 or even 20. Time literally means money: Surpassing the limit can result in fines, which are paid to the firm rather than to the consumers. Yet, beyond fines, there is often a greater cost. According to Pandaily News, one delivery worker is injured or killed in accidents every 2.5 days in Shanghai and, sadly, companies seldom provide insurance claims when their time limits lead to these consequences. Drivers are pushed to break traffic rules and risk their lives so your sushi is not a minute late.
Furthermore, low wages and extensive working hours exacerbate these issues. Some companies in China take advantage of the economic inequalities between China’s large cities and less developed interior to offer extremely low pay to migrant delivery drivers while demanding long hours. Yet these long hours and low pay are common throughout the global delivery industry. In the United States, advertised earnings of $22 per hour are largely exaggerated while workers complain that food delivery apps rarely give them all their tips.
What is the solution First, consumers should recognize what is behind their impossibly cheap and fast delivery: exploitation. We should expect more from the delivery app companies and less from their drivers. That is, we should pay more and wait longer while only ordering from companies who offer their drivers fair wages, insurance and a safe working environment. In the end, your sushi is just not worth it.
32. Who will be paid the fines for a delayed delivery
A. The delivery firm. B. The delivery worker.
C. The sushi restaurant. D. The ordinary consumer.
33. What does the underlined word “exacerbate” in paragraph 4 mean
A. Integrate. B. Comprise. C. Worsen. D. Ease.
34. Why does the author mention the “earnings of $22 per hour” in the US
A. To indicate that delivery drivers shouldn’t expect much.
B. To emphasize that delivery companies should provide insurance.
C. To prove that the pay and working environment are better in the US.
D. To show that low pay and overwork are common issues in the industry.
35. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. The Harm of Delivery Services B. The True Cost of Convenient Deliveries
C. The Overrated Popularity of Sushi D. The Benefits and Problems of Delivery Apps

Younger generations of Chinese citizens have developed new methods to relieve stress, which include raising unconventional “pets”, hugging trees, watching stress relief videos and so on.
On social media platforms, a new toy called “mango dog” recently emerged. 36 In the eyes of some netizens, the “mango dog” has special meanings. “Every time I see it, it heals me,” “It’s fluffy (毛茸茸) and cute.” 37 For example, college students have shared online their experiences of raising stones and paper box “dogs”. These “pets” share similar characteristics — they don’t cry, make noise or get sick.
Tree hugging has also become a new stress relief for young people. “You may think you are hugging the tree, but in fact, the tree is embracing you,” this is a feeling shared by a netizen. Many netizens with such experiences have expressed that their anxiety has been reduced, and they feel a sense of communication with nature. 38
“I came across the idea online. I tried it and felt truly relaxed,” said a young office worker. “In those brief seconds, it felt like the tree released a lot of pressure and stress from me.” 39 “I especially enjoy watching stress relief videos, like washing blankets and cutting soap. After watching them, I feel like the stress of the day is relieved and it’s easier to fall asleep.”
40 According to public data, there are currently more than 800 companies in China with names, business scopes, products, services or trademarks containing the term “stress relief”. In 2023 alone, more than 70 new registered companies with this focus were added.
A. Various “pets” are made to cater to different people.
B. It is claimed to bring a sense of calmness and give a healing effect.
C. This is not the first time that young people have raised novel “pets”.
D. A young media worker also finds the relief in watching short videos.
E. In some cities people have even organized “tree hugging interest groups”.
F. Other toys such as squeeze balls have also gained popularity as a way to relieve stress.
G. The popularity of these methods reflects an increasing need to release people’s pressure.

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。
Edun did not want to go on a hike. She especially did not want to go on a long hike in the mountains that led to a tiny cabin with no electricity and no running water. She wanted to stay home reading a book instead while wrapped in a warm blanket.
“Ready ” Mom asked cheerfully after breakfast. Edun looked out of the window and only saw rain, lots of it. “We should go another day,” Edun suggested. “Maybe a hundred years from now.” She worried she would get tired on the hike. She worried about getting bored at the dark cabin. Mom said it was time to stop worrying and get into the car.
Edun’s brother, Will, was waiting in the garage, who wore a camera around his neck. Will was four years older than Edun and had climbed many more mountains. He’d started hiking when he was two and loved it.
Because it was raining, Edun had to wear her rain pants, her rain hat, her rain jacket, and her waterproof boots. Her jacket had a rough material on the inside. She didn’t like how it felt against her skin.
After about half an hour’s drive, they parked at a trail head (登山口). The rain had stopped but the ground was still dripping wet. “We’ll be there by afternoon!” Mom promised. The afternoon sounded far away.
Will identified a bird sitting on a nearby branch — “Fox sparrow!” — then he raced down the trail and was soon out of sight.
Edun rested under a pine tree. “You can’t force me to walk,” Edun said. “You’re right,” said her mom smilingly, standing under the tree, too, “But you will never know what may lie ahead and amaze us.”

参考范文：
Paragraph 1
Thinking Mom was right, Edun followed her down the trail. As they walked along the way, she noticed the beauty of the forest around her. The rain had brought out vibrant colors in the leaves and flowers, and freshness in the air. Edun listened to the sound of the birds singing and the leaves rustling as the gentle breeze blew through the trees. She felt a sense of peace she had never experienced before, and her worries about other things faded away.
Paragraph 2
Twenty minutes later, they saw the cabin. Nestled among the trees, it looked cosy and welcoming. To her surprise, Edun felt content and excited as they approached the tiny wooden structure. Once inside, they found Will already there, whose camera was filled with photos of the stunning scenery they’d encountered along the way. Although the cabin was dark and had no modern facilities, she found herself feeling more connected to nature and her family than ever before. The rain, the hike, and the cabin together created an unforgettable experience.
