Eleven-year-old Ruby has a unique hobby—making wishes come true for nursing home residents in Harrison, Arkansas. Inspired by her mother's work as a nurse, Ruby accompanied her mother to the nursing homes during the summer and has developed a close bond with the elderly residents.
One day, Ruby noticed a resident named Pearl looking sad while staring out of a window. When she asked what was wrong, Pearl explained that she had seen her dog being taken away, and she didn't know when she would see her beloved pet again. It broke Ruby's heart, and she decided to take action. She began asking the residents what three things they wanted most in the world. To her surprise, their requests were simple—chocolate bars, McDonald's fries, and pants that fit properly.
Ruby and her mother used their own money to achieve the wishes of around 100 residents within three months. Soon, they started receiving donations from the kind-hearted people of Harrison. Encouraged by the overwhelming response, they set up a GoFundMe page called "Three Wishes for Ruby's Residents" to collect $5,000. They reached their goal within a month.
When GoFundMe recognized Ruby as a Kid Hero and shared her story worldwide, donations poured in. In just 24 hours, they raised $20,000, and within five months, the total surpassed $250,000. With these funds, they were able to grant(准予)more creative wishes, such as creating a man cave for one resident with a Walkman and snacks, and providing financial assistance for another resident to attend an out-of-state wedding.
Motivated by their success, Three Wishes for Ruby's Residents became a nonprofit organization and expanded nationwide. Their new goal is to set up a shared laptop in at least one nursing home in each state. Ruby's passion for kindness drives her to continue her efforts, and her acts of kindness serve as a reminder that even small gestures can make a big difference in someone's life.
24. What inspired Ruby to achieve nursing home residents' wishes
A. Her affection for dogs. B. Her enthusiasm for fundraising.
C. Pearl's request for three wishes. D. Pearl's story about her pet dog.
25. How did Ruby and her mother firstly get the money to satisfy the residents' desires
A. They got the fund.
B. They sold their belongings.
C. They used their personal money.
D. They got donations from the nursing home.
26. What was one of the creative wishes granted by the project
A. Building a new nursing home.
B. Providing financial assistance for weddings
C. Setting up shared laptops in nursing homes across the country.
D. Establishing a comfortable room for a resident with a music player and snacks.
27. Which word can best describe Ruby's behavior
A. Creative. B. Caring. C. Confusing. D. Courageous.
C
A group of researchers has come up with a way to make it easier to drive in the snow: by designing tyres(轮胎)based on polar bear paws.
"We had an ongoing project for many years focused on ice," said Ali Dhinojwala, who took part in the research. "We were looking at the friction(摩擦力)of materials because our national partners need to develop tyres with a strong grip on the road in ice and snow conditions." The team turned to nature for inspiration, thinking that evolution might have already solved the problem in a way that could be copied with technology. The obvious place to look was polar bears—specifically the tiny bumps(凸块)on the surface of their paw pads—to find out what effect they have on the animals' ability to move quickly across icy and snowy area.
To do this, the team gathered samples(样本)of polar bear paw pads, as well as samples from brown bears and American black bears(two species closely related to polar bears)and sun bears(a distantly related species, typically found in Asia).
The team imaged the samples using a scanning electron microscope, produced 3D-printed copies and then tested them in snow in the lab. They found that the tiny structures on the polar bear paw pads were taller, which gave them better friction on the snow, even though polar bears have smaller pads compared to other bears.
The team now wants to look into other factors that may have an effect, such as the patterns and shapes of the tiny structures. "If you look at snow tyres you'll see that they do have some deeper treads(外胎花纹), but this research could also show various ways to design them that could have a larger impact," said Dhinojwala.
28. What does the underlined word "they" in paragraph 2 refer to
A. Polar bears. B. Tiny bumps.
C. Paw pads. D. Snowy roads.
29. What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A. The background of the research. B. The finding of the research.
C. The differences of samples in the lab. D. The comparison of different bear pads.
30. What can we infer from Dhinojwala's words in the last paragraph
A. Different treads might be designed on the snow tyres.
B. Snow tyres that have deeper treads can be safe enough.
C. The design of snow tyres requires no further improvement.
D. The researchers should have turned to other bears for inspiration.
31. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage
A. An easier way to drive in the snow B. An ongoing project focused on ice
C. Snow tyres based on polar bear paws D. A new research on polar bear paw pads
D
Everywhere you go, it seems like people are using something to reduce the noise in their lives. They wear over-ear headphones on public transportation, during long flights, or in open-plan offices, or use colored earplugs(耳塞)at concerts. Silence is now big business, with the global market for noise-cancelling headphones bringing $13.1 billion in 2021. Experts predict that this figure will triple by 2031. While these market-based solutions are becoming popular, they raise a question: Are there physical and social effects to shutting out the world around us
Noise-cancelling technology was first developed in the 1950s to reduce cockpit noise for pilots. The headphones today use technology known as active noise control. However, too much of a good thing also has its downsides. Many studies have shown that constant earplug wearing, day and night, over just one week can lead to a condition known as tinnitus(耳鸣). "When you stop listening to outside sounds, your brain starts to turn up its "internal volume" so that it can still pick up on things." McAlpine says. "If you stop the sound going into your ears, it's like messing with how your brain is supposed to work naturally.”
When it comes to distraction(干扰), the type of noise may matter as much as volume. Moderate(适中的)background noise, around 70dB, has been found to advance performance on creative tasks, for example. "Some people can work really effectively in buzzy cafes and even airports, and yet they can't focus in the same way in an office. Even if it isn't as noisy," McAlpine says. "Your brain in the office is automatically paying attention to all those other conversations—because they might be about something you need to know."
How, then, can we deal with all the loud distractions in our modern lives An over-dependence on noise-cancelling technology is not necessarily the solution, says McAlpine. "We have given more control to outside sources over our sound environment compared to our visual environment," he says. If people started wearing AR/VR goggles and living in their own virtual worlds instead of focusing on improving the physical environment, "…that's problematic.”
32. What is the purpose of noise-cancelling headphones
A. To pick up the sounds.
B. To reduce the rate of tinnitus.
C. To improve performance on creative tasks.
D. To create a sense of silence in noisy environments.
33. Which statement is TRUE according to the article
A. Wearing noise-cancelling headphones has no physical or social costs.
B. Creative task performance can be improved by the moderate background noise.
C. Noise-cancelling technology was first developed in the 1950s for concertgoers.
D. The global market for noise-cancelling headphones is believed to drop by 2031.
34. What does the underlined word "buzzy" mean in the fourth paragraph
A. Lively. B. Advanced. C. Interesting. D. Quiet.
35. What attitude does McAlpine hold towards the over-dependence on the technology
A. Negative. B. Objective. C. Optimistic. D. Indifferent.

W: I'm Dr. Petersen, and this is Dr. Thompson. We' re happy to be today's guest speakers at the Tinham's School for Girls.
M: Dr. Petersen and I work with young women like you by offering support and advice.
W: For previous generations, there were many issues with crime and drugs. But now, although society is safer, there's much more pressure for young people. (13)
M: Especially girls. Judging others' physical appearance online is very common. We've found that these pressures have led to decreased confidence and issues with eating.
W: That's right. Some regional studies show that around 8% of girls have eating issues due to the fear of gaining weight. That's why we' re here to help.
M: So, we encourage everyone to receive our e-mail newsletters about new programs. (14)Plus, for anyone currently needing help, we will support you.
W: I saw my own daughter go through these problems, and then I gave the rest of my life to help young girls. (15)At our doctor's office, we provide free plans for health, diet, and exercise, as well as community meetings. (16)
