Clair Hughes first began to research money-saving ideas to get out of her 3,500 student overdraft (透支额). The shopper started surfing the Internet for discount coupons (优惠券) and cut price offers. Revealing how she seldom pays full price for an item, Ms Hughes says, “Discounts are always there; it’s just a matter of being organized. Before starting this, I thought it’d be much work, but now I’m so used to this lifestyle that it’s automatic to me. I must have easily saved over 15,000.”
Ms Hughes first focused on saving money back in 2010, when she moved in with her partner, Shane Byrne, a phone company trainer. After turning to the web for advice, she tried out a few clever money-saving tricks like switching her overdraft to a zero-interest account. Then, several years later, she came across an online community for “couponers” and decided to give it a go.
She started spending hours surfing the web for coupons, printing them all out to take with her whenever she went shopping. Over the years, she has managed to get some impressive catches. Once, two lamps worth 140 cost her just 35.
Two years ago, Ms Hughes also began using cashback apps where you are given money back on items ranging from beers to toiletries. After each shop, she uploads pictures of her receipts, which are then scanned, and money is given back on certain items.
Among her other top money-saving tips, Ms Hughes recommends taking part in paid online surveys, which have earned her hundreds in discount coupons. She says, “I’ve heard a lot about collecting other people’s abandoned receipts from shopping trolleys to check for missed discounts. I can’t believe how much coupons and cashback apps have helped me. The community does benefit me a lot. There will always be someone on hand to explain how it works.”
24. What does saving money mean to Clair Hughes
A. It’s part of her daily life. B. It makes her shop less.
C. It’s a way to leave school. D. It keeps her work organized.
25. What can we know about Clair Hughes
A. She always asks Shane for suggestions.
B. She likes going shopping with her friends.
C. She has bought some goods in low prices.
D. She is good at discussing prices with others.
26. What does the last paragraph mainly show
A. Hughes’ feelings of her life. B. Hughes’ ways to get coupons.
C. Hughes’ appreciation for society. D. Hughes’ difficulty in saving money.
27. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. A Graduate Enjoys Shopping B. A Community Collects Coupons
C. A Woman Focuses on Saving Money D. A Shopper Is Famous for Saving Money

Scientists looking to uncover the mysteries of the underwater world have more valuable information thanks to an international team that has produced a list of species confirmed or expected to produce sounds underwater.
Led by Audrey Looby from the University of Florida, the Global Library of Underwater Biological Sounds working group collaborated with the World Register of Marine Species to document 729 mammals (哺乳动物), fishes, and invertebrates (无脊椎动物) that produce active or passive sounds. In addition, the list includes another 21,911 species that are considered to likely produce sounds.
“With more than 70% of the Earth’s surface covered by water, most of the planet’s habitats are aquatic, and there is a misconception that most aquatic organisms are silent. The newly published comprehensive digital database on what animals are known to make sounds is the first of its kind and can revolutionize marine and aquatic science,” the researchers said.
“Listening to underwater sounds can reveal a lot of information about the species that produce them and is useful for a variety of applications, ranging from fisheries management, invasive species detection to assessing human environmental impacts,” said Looby, who also co-created FishSounds, which offers a collection of fish sound production research records.
The team’s research was published in Scientific Data and involved 19 authors from six countries. “Understanding how marine species interact with their environments is of global importance, and this data being freely available is a major step toward that goal,” said Kieran Cox, a member of the research team.
“Most people are familiar with whale or dolphin sounds but are often surprised to learn that many fishes and invertebrates use sounds to communicate, too,” Looby said. “Our database helps demonstrate how widespread underwater sound production really is across a variety of animals, but we still have a lot to learn.”
28. Why is the data listed in paragraph 2
A. To show the types of biological sounds.
B. To show the sum of documents on animals.
C. To show the species of underwater animals.
D. To show the number of the sound-producing species.
29. What is people’s misunderstanding according to the text
A. Many mammals can live in water. B. Most fishes cannot make sounds.
C. Different species can communicate. D. Ocean animals can’t get onto the land.
30. What is the goal mentioned by Kieran Cox
A. To document ocean animals’ sounds.
B. To set up a free database for scientists.
C. To learn how ocean animals communicate.
D. To publish the team’s research in Scientific Data.
31. What is the main purpose of the text
A. To call on people to protect ocean animals.
B. To introduce the finding of a research team.
C. To list the animals that can produce sounds.
D. To describe the mysterious underwater world.

Every day, people share more than 2 billion photos on the Internet. While visual content provides a fun and expressive way for people to communicate online, consuming and creating it poses challenges for people who are blind or severely visually impaired (受损的). With more than 39 million people who are blind, and over 246 million who have a severe visual impairment, many people may feel excluded from the conversation around photos on the Internet. The researchers from Harvard University want to build technology that helps the blind community appreciate photos in the same way others enjoy them.
Automatic alternative text is a new development that generates a description of a photo using advancements in object recognition technology. People using screen readers on digital devices will hear a list of items a photo may contain as they click photos on the Internet. Before today, people using screen readers would only hear the name of the person who shared the photo, followed by the term “photo” when they came upon an image. Now they can offer a richer description of what’s in a photo thanks to automatic alternative text. For instance, someone could now hear “an image containing three people, smiling, outdoors”.
This is possible because of Harvard University’s object recognition technology, which is based on a network that has billions of parameters and is trained with millions of examples. Each advancement in object recognition technology means that the researchers will be able to make technology even more accessible to more people. When people are connected, they can achieve extraordinary things as individuals and as a community, and when everyone is connected, we all benefit from it.
They are launching automatic alternative text first on cellphone screen readers set to English, but they plan to add this functionality for other languages and platforms soon. While this technology is still nascent, using its current capabilities to describe photos is an important step toward providing our visually impaired community with the same benefits and enjoyment that everyone else gets from photos.
32. Why is the technology launched
A. There are so many photos on the Internet.
B. There are many people suffering from blindness.
C. Some digital devices are in need of the technology.
D. People with vision problems fail to enjoy photos online.
33. What is the advantage of the technology over the previous one
A. It can offer more photos to blind people.
B. It can describe more about online photos.
C. It can recognize the person who shares photos.
D. It can satisfy the common needs of blind people.
34. What is the key to promoting the technology
A. The photos on the Internet. B. People’s care for blind people.
C. People’s connections to each other. D. The object recognition technology.
35. Which can best explain the underlined word “nascent” in the last paragraph
A. Emerging. B. Reliable. C. Powerful. D. Conventional.

第二节(满分25分)
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。
William grew up in Miami in a rough area. William’s father ran a fish business in the Florida Keys, and William helped with it. Fishing was a huge part of their life. His father always said, “Fishing is so peaceful, and it is like an escape.”
Inspired by his father. William founded a nonprofit fishing organization in Lakeland, Florida, which took many kids on fishing trips. Its purpose was to instruct poor kids without their fathers’ company through the sport of fishing.
During the weekdays, William worked as a tire salesman. On weekends, he and a few other volunteers, mostly people from his workshop, took about 20 kids out to fish in the nearby river at a time. To make the kids enjoy fishing safely and happily, he previously led his staff in professional training in fishing and boating.
William went to local homes himself to invite the kids to go fishing. Many had never been fishing or even on a boat, so William. or Big Will, as the kids call him, started by teaching the basics. Then came the life lessons that fishing offered: patience, teamwork and the simple joy of relaxing outdoors. The fishing organization took more than 600 fishing trips with almost 2,000 kids who lacked their fathers’ company in their lives.
Of course, William’s great kindness was widely recognized in society. When William explained his mission to Captain Jack, who was in charge of a boat in Clearwater, Captain Jack offered him a great deal. Then the nonprofit fishing organization paid less money to spend weekends on the boat. The kids were inspired to release little fish. On a recent trip with kids from a group home, William kept some big fish and enjoyed delicious fish soup with the kids at dinner.
William kept searching the neighborhood for kids in need and sharing his love of fishing with the kids. He said, “I just want to show them that I care about them and that I’m there for them.” Many kids went on multiple trips, so William was able to build relationships with them.
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。
One day, William noticed his eight-year-old neighbor, Camron, sitting sadly in front of his door.Big Will’s reputation was growing, and the nonprofit fishing organization attracted more sponsors besides Captain Jack.

第一节:
参考范文:
An Experience During the May Day
During the May Day, I actively participated in the labor organized by our community. The project was focused on cleaning and beautifying our local park.
The process involved several tasks, including cleaning up litter, planting new flowers and painting benches. We started early in the morning, equipped with gloves, trash bags and gardening tools. We worked cooperatively according to the assignment. The most challenging part was digging and planting, which required physical strength. It was not until dusk that we finished our task and went home.
The experience made me appreciate the value of community and the impact of collective effort. I felt a sense of accomplishment and pride in contributing to the environmental improvement of our shared space.
第二节:
参考范文:
One day, William noticed his eight-year-old neighbor, Camron, sitting sadly in front of his door. William approached Camron and they started a conversation. Camron said, “My father will work out of town, and there will be no one to accompany me to go fishing.” William replied, “Your father worked hard so that you could live a happier life. Cheer up! I’ll be there for you when you go fishing.” After that day, they fished together several times a month, and William saw positive changes in Camron’s behavior. Camron also called William Big Will and regarded him as a father figure.
Big Will’s reputation was growing, and the nonprofit fishing organization attracted more sponsors besides Captain Jack. They donated many items including rods, reels and fishing clothing. William welcomed donations from individuals, too. The nonprofit fishing organization had a huge impact on the kids’ state of mind. William wanted to help more kids by introducing them to fishing or another hobby they enjoyed. Now he is also teaching kids from other neighborhoods to fish. Now that it begins, he wishes it can snowball fast and benefit more kids with the help of kind donations.
