In Aleksandra's studio in Haikou, the capital of Hainan, an oil painting of St. Basil's Cathedral hangs beside a portrait capturing the grace of a woman from the Li ethnic group, symbolizing two distinct aspects of the artist's life.
Raised in a family of artists, the 24-year-old Russian woman developed a profound love for painting from an early age. Six years ago, she relocated to Hainan and set up her studio there. Her fascination with Chinese culture was bolstered when she was 10 years old. “I picked up the language through the internet, books and TV. I simply adore Chinese culture.” In 2018, driven by her passion, Aleksandra journeyed to Hainan to study, where she was captured by the island's peaceful natural beauty and unhurried pace of life.
“It's an incredibly beautiful place, and the people are kind, charming and authentically simple,” she reflects. “Life unfolds at a leisurely pace, allowing them to harmonize with nature.” Living in Hainan enables her to immerse herself in nature and humanity, two beloved themes in her artwork. The local people and culture have become essential to her life as she and her husband, whom she met on the island, have ventured through its landscapes together.
“We ventured into the heart of Hainan. It was during these journeys that I first encountered the Li people,” she recalls. The Li brocade(织锦)has left a lasting impact on her. This traditional textile of the Li ethnic group in Hainan is regarded as a “living fossil” of the textile industry, boasting a history of over 3,000 years. “When you witness a woman weaving this brocade, she is narrating a tale passed down through generations, such as that of Dalishen, the God of Strength, watching over us. It not only inspires me but also empowers me to create,” she says.
She strives to capture the complicated patterns of the brocade in her paintings, weaving local culture into her creations—a process that has brought her profound satisfaction.
24. What inspired Aleksandra to set up her studio in Haikou
A. Her passion for painting. B. The low cost of living.
C. Her desire for further study. D. The local scenery and lifestyle.
25. What does the underlined word “bolstered” in paragraph 2 probably mean
A. Fueled. B. Recovered. C. Blocked. D. Weakened.
26. What is a feature of Aleksandra's works
A. They tell fairy stories.
B. They reflect Li ethnic culture.
C. They center on weaving techniques.
D. They stress the history of the Li people.
27. What is the purpose of the text
A. To attract people to Haikou.
B. To highlight China's cultural diversity.
C. To advertise an artist's works.
D. To introduce a foreign artist in China.

In 2011, two students from the University of Michigan dreamed of a way to bring the Detroit community together while creating a sustainable food source. That year, Tyson Gersh and Darin McLeskey launched the Michigan Urban Farming Initiative (MUFI), which converted a residential neighborhood in Detroit's North End into an agricultural wonderland, run by the community, for the community.
Now, it's been over 10 years, and MUFI is still running strong. In fact, they have grown to become the first sustainable urban “agrihood” in the United States, The term, coined in 2014, refers to an “agricultural neighborhood” in an urban setting. Today there are 90 such “agrihoods” in the U.S., with another 27 in development.
MUFI's primary focus has been the redevelopment of a three-acre plot, which they call the “center of urban agriculture.” Their mission is to use urban agriculture as a platform to promote education, sustainability, and community in an effort to empower urban communities, solve many social problems facing Detroit, and potentially develop a broader model for redevelopment for other urban communities.
To accomplish this, they have used a variety of creative techniques to transform residential properties into agricultural landscapes. In one video, on the MUFI YouTube channel, they show how they used the basement plot of a destroyed house as a cistern(蓄 水 池). They're also working to turn an old building into a brightly colored community center.
Bringing the community together is the heart of MUFI's mission. All their support and volunteers are sourced from Detroit and their produce goes right back into the community. Since 2011, MUFI has produced 50, 000 pounds of food for the people of Detroit. Once packaged, the food is sent to one of four places: individual households, local markets, restaurants, and food pantries. They note that individual households are provided food on a “pay what you can” model.
The organization has no less than seven community-oriented projects in development. Alongside their agricultural efforts, they have been working to beautify the area with flower gardens, and a covered pavilion(亭子)for community events is in the works. Their efforts also include affordable housing made from shipping containers.
28. What can we learn about MUFI from the first two paragraphs
A. It focuses on research into climate changes.
B. It has changed traditional farming methods.
C. It has gained wide recognition in the country.
D. It was initially launched as a university project.
29. What is MUFI aimed at
A. Uplifting the community. B. Seeking food sources for residents.
C. Redefining unban farming. D. Setting an example to other cities.
30. What does paragraph 4 mainly show us
A. MUFI's primary mission. B. MUFI's agricultural efforts.
C. MUFI's fast development. D. MUFI's technological achievements
31. Why does MUFI adopt a “pay what you can”model
A. To reduce food waste.
B. To make their food affordable
C. To increase the amount of sales.
D. To promote a new sales strategy.

A Japanese company has developed an artificial intelligence filter(变声器)that can detect angry screams and translate them into calm speech in order to reduce the stress experienced by call center operators.
Large tech companies have long been aware of the stress their call center operators are exposed to every single day, with many customers taking out their anger and frustrations on them. Some of them have even introduced stress management programs that include relaxation techniques, meditation, yoga, or therapy meant to irritability and anxiety. However, one Japanese company may have come up with a much more efficient solution—using AI to completely take screaming and aggressive speech out of the equation. SoftBank claims to have spent three years creating a voice filter that detects screaming and automatically translates it into calm speech.
SoftBank's voice filter consists of two stages, one in which the AI identifies an angry voice and extracts key points of speech, and a second where it uses acoustic(声学)tools to transform it into a more natural, even polite tone. Interestingly, the filter doesn't change any of the words spoken by the person, but significantly softens the intonation. The call center operator will still hear any insults(辱骂)uttered, only in a soft tone, which should help reduce their stress and anxiety.
To train the AI, SoftBank's engineers asked 10 actors to record at least 100 common phrases including screams, accusations, threats, and demands for an apology. In total, more than 10,000 pieces of voice data were used to train the Al filter.
It's unclear when SoftBank plans to apply the new scream-filtering AI in its call centers, but it will be interesting to see how well it works and how it impacts the emotional wellbeing of operators.
32. Why has SoftBank invented the voice filter
A. To translate calm speech.
B. To improve work efficiency.
C. To relieve the operators' pressure.
D. To introduce relaxation techniques.
33. What can be concluded about the Al filter
A. It changes the insult words of customers.
B. It reduces stress by removing any insults.
C. It makes the operators hear the angry words in a soft tone.
D. It transforms key points of speech into a more polite tone.
34. What did the engineers do to train the Al filter
A. They recorded actors' soft voices.
B. They compared different voice data.
C. They analyzed reasons for bad moods.
D. They collected data of angry voices.
35. How does the author feel about the filter's future
A. Hopeful. B. Doubtful. C. Disappointed. D. Confident.

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。
A diet plan is a regulated eating strategy used by people who need special dietary restrictions. Regulating what a person eats can allow for that person to get all of his or her nutritional requirements without eating unnecessary foods. 36
One of the most common reasons for planned eating involves weight loss or changes in body fat. 37 For example, drinking only lemonade as a diet plan will certainly make a person lose weight but it will not support the body's needs for very long. On the other hand, eating special planned meals designed with balanced nutrition and low calories is a sustainable diet plan that can evolve with the needs of the individual over time.
38 Some people, for example, cannot tolerate milk but still need to consume a sufficient amount of calcium(钙). Special dietary changes can accommodate issues like this. More difficult diet plans might address gluten(谷蛋白)intolerance or an inability to eat meat.
A diet plan may be essential to life for people with certain health risks and disorders. People who are diabetic must carefully monitor what they eat in order to stay alive, and planning can help with this problem. For those who suffer from high cholesterol or stomach illnesses, a specific diet plan can be life-saving in the long term. 39
The problem with choosing a diet plan is that there are many different views on what is and is not healthy in a diet. 40 This diet, which includes many foods that most people would consider unhealthy, however, is popular within a culture that emphasizes walking, and slow meals, which results in people who are thinner on average. For this reason, it is important to consider the activities and lifestyle surrounding that diet.
A. However, not every diet will work for every person.
B. One of the most famous examples is the typical French diet.
C. Other types of diet plans address specific allergies or intolerances.
D. There are fitness apps that make it easy to manage your meal plans.
E. Likewise, diet plans can help stay away from problematic diet areas.
F. There are many different diet plans of this type and not all of them are healthy.
G. Even people merely getting older can benefit from a diet plan designed to extend life.

It was a dark and stormy night. Tara Wilson stared out of the service station's wide window at the pouring rain and sighed. Just then, a streak of lightning flashed across the sky and the sound of thunder split the night.
Night duty at a gas station wasn't exactly the exciting job Tara had been dreaming of when she went to journalism school, but unfortunately, she'd had to leave college to support her sick mother. What Tara didn't know was that the dull night was about to become a lot more exciting.
As Tara thought about her life, a weak figure was stumbling(蹒跚)towards her in the dark, almost bent double against the force of the wind. Tara was almost asleep when a gasping(喘息) voice interrupted her. “Please, oh please…”
Tara, who was seated behind the service station's counter, jumped to her feet. In front of her, dripping equal portions of rain and mud was an older woman, whose clothes were covered with oil, dirt, and mud.
“Ma'am ” Tara gasped. “I'm sorry, I didn't hear you come in!” The woman took another stumbling step forward and held on to the counter with desperate hands. “Please,” she gasped again, “I need your help…”
The woman pressed her shaking hands together. “My husband and I had a car accident. He's lying unconscious on the road. My phone is broken… All I ask is that you make a phone call!”
“I'll call 911 for you, Ma'am,” Tara said. She picked up the receiver of the service station's landline(座机)and dialed, but she couldn't get through. She picked up her cell phone then shook her head.
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。
“I'm sorry,” she told the woman.
With the woman's guidance, Tara drove to the scene of the accident.
