W: Yes. The summer course operated for the first time last year for a six-week period. We did think about making it longer this year and have a seven-week course, as there’re some schools which finish term a week earlier. In fact, two schools have eight-week holidays. But in the end we decided to keep to the same plan as last year.
M: But, as I understand, last year’s course wasn’t a complete success, was it
W: Well, we were actually very surprised by the number of people interested in the course. We didn’t actually have enough assistants to look after all the children. Besides, there was such a lot of rain that we couldn’t go outside as often as we wanted to.
M: So, what activities can the children look forward to this year
W: Well, once again there’ll be artists and musicians who will lead creative classes. We also considered providing some more exciting adventure sports. But we decided not to, in the end. Instead we’re introducing some fun programs. I think it’ll be good fun for children.

W: Where is the best place for skateboarding
M: Well, for freestyle boarding, which doesn’t need a skate park. Any smooth, flat ground like a basketball court or a square will do. The place I most often go to is the park that goes along the beach.

M: I used to cycle or jog twice a week. That wasn’t keeping me fit enough though. Now I’ve joined the gym to spend time swimming.
W: Do you have any plans for the future

Scott McKenzie and Jeremy Uhrich, two dads from Huntingdon, have transformed their passion for baking into a heartwarming community effort. This journey began when McKenzie, 58, found himself laid off and decided to learn a new skill every week. Baking was one of these new skills, and he was pleasantly surprised by the quality of his first batch of cookies. Proudly, he shared his creation on social media, catching the attention of Uhrich,a longtime friend, who playfully challenged him to a bake-off.
Uhrich, 42, baked with his sons that same day and proposed a competition to McKenzie. The two agreed to let community workers in the community judge the treats as a thank-you for their help during the challenging times. The competition was a success, but McKenzie and Uhrich didn’t stop there. They decided to deliver the rest of the cookies to community workers, sparking an idea that would eventually become Cookies for Caregivers.
The timing couldn’t have been more crucial—the community had recently experienced a terrible earthquake, leaving many homes destroyed and families displaced. As part of the rebuilding efforts, a Facebook group, Cookies for Caregivers was born. McKenzie and Uhrich allowed their neighbors to volunteer to make treats for first responders and business owners who were working tirelessly in the aftermath of the earthquake. Since the disaster struck, more than 100 people have joined the group, baking and delivering more than 15,000 cookies to workers at hospitals, grocery stores, fire departments, and more.
The impact of Cookies for Caregivers has been profound. Uhrich says “they’ve seen a lot of smiles and tears during deliveries”. The project has brought together members of the community who may have never interacted otherwise, all with a common goal of showing gratitude to those on the front lines of the rebuilding efforts after the earthquake. McKenzie says “they plan on continuing the effort because they are immensely grateful for the selfless contributions and want to express their appreciation to as many people as possible”.
24．What happened to Scott McKenzie before he started to bake
A．He was unfortunately out of work. B．He challenged Uhrich on social media.
C．He suffered a lot during the hard times. D．He worked as a judge in the community.
25．What initially led to Cookies for Caregivers
A．Smiles and tears during deliveries. B．A bake-off between McKenzie and Uhrich.
C．Positive responses to the delicious cookies. D．The rebuilding efforts after a terrible earthquake.
26．What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A．A description of a terrible earthquake. B．An introduction to Cookless for Caregivers.
C．The impact of Cookies for Caregivers. D．The effort by responders and business owners.
27．What message is conveyed in the passage
A．It’s never too old to legent.
B．Two heads are holler than one.
C．Small acts of kindness can make a big difference.
D．A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
【答案】24．A 25．B 26．B 27．C
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了两位父亲将自己对烘焙的热爱转换为了暖心的社区努力，他们发起了“关爱者的饼干”项目，给在地震中努力工作的急救人员和企业主送饼干。
24．细节理解题。根据第一段中“This journey began when McKenzie, 58, found himself laid off and decided to learn a new skill every week. Baking was one of these new skills, and he was pleasantly surprised by the quality of his first batch of cookies.”（这段旅程始于58岁的麦肯齐，他发现自己被解雇了，于是决定每周学习一项新技能。烘焙是其中一项新技能，他对第一批饼干的质量感到惊喜。）可知，斯科特·麦肯齐在开始烘焙之前他不幸失业了。故选A项。
25．细节理解题。根据第二段“Uhrich, 42, baked with his sons that same day and proposed a competition to McKenzie. The two agreed to let community workers in the community judge the treats as a thank-you for their help during the challenging times. The competition was a success, but McKenzie and Uhrich didn’t stop there. They decided to deliver the rest of the cookies to community workers, sparking an idea that would eventually become Cookies for Caregivers.”（同一天，42岁的乌里奇和他的儿子们一起烘焙，并向麦肯齐提出了一项竞赛。两人同意让社区工作人员来评判这些食物，以感谢他们在艰难时期的帮助。比赛取得了成功，但麦肯齐和乌里希并没有就此止步。他们决定把剩下的饼干送给社区工作人员，这激发了一个想法，最终成为了“关爱者的饼干”。）可知，最初麦肯齐和乌里奇之间的烘焙比赛导致了“关爱者的饼干”这个项目。故选B项。
26．主旨大意题。根据第三段“The timing couldn’t have been more crucial—the community had recently experienced a terrible earthquake, leaving many homes destroyed and families displaced. As part of the rebuilding efforts, a Facebook group, Cookies for Caregivers was born. McKenzie and Uhrich allowed their neighbors to volunteer to make treats for first responders and business owners who were working tirelessly in the aftermath of the earthquake. Since the disaster struck, more than 100 people have joined the group, baking and delivering more than 15,000 cookies to workers at hospitals, grocery stores, fire departments, and more.”（这个时机非常关键——这个社区最近经历了一场可怕的地震，许多房屋被毁，许多家庭流离失所。作为重建工作的一部分，Facebook上一个名为“照顾者的饼干”的小组诞生了。麦肯齐和乌里希让他们的邻居自愿为在地震后不知疲倦地工作的急救人员和企业主们做点心。自灾难发生以来，已有100多人
加入了该组织，为医院、杂货店、消防部门等工作人员烘焙并分发了1.5万多块饼干。）可知，第三段主要讲的是介绍“关爱者的饼干”这个项目。故选B项。
27．推理判断题。根据文章大意以及最后一段中“The project has brought together members of the community who may have never interacted otherwise, all with a common goal of showing gratitude to those on the front lines of the rebuilding efforts after the earthquake. McKenzie says “they plan on continuing the effort because they are immensely grateful for the selfless contributions and want to express their appreciation to as many people as possible”.”（该项目将原本从未互动过的社区成员聚集在一起，所有人都有一个共同的目标，即向那些在地震后重建工作的第一线的人表示感谢。麦肯齐说：“他们计划继续努力，因为他们非常感谢无私的贡献，并希望向尽可能多的人表达他们的感激之情。”）可推知，这篇文章传达了小小的善举可以产生很大的影响。故选C项。
C
Remember solar roadways, where solar panels were embedded (嵌入) in roads The idea of the solar roadway seems attractive because the solar resource is everywhere, and someday there will be a lot of electric cars that will need charging. But for me, the idea has little to recommend it. There is another kind of road — the railway — that might be a much better place for solar panels. And that’s what is happening in Germany, where the British company Bankset Energy is installing solar panels between the rails.
As estimated, 100 kilowatts of electricity can be generated per kilometer of railway line. Since the rail network in Germany is over 60,000 kilometers long, the power that can be generated is comparable to the output of five nuclear power plants in total.
But, why is putting solar panels is a railway better than a roadway Trains generally stay on the rails, so there is no need to have solar panels designed to take any serious load. Although there is a serious amount of vibration, the panels wouldn’t shake apart. Railways usually own their rights of way and restrict access, so they have much better control. They also own the electrical infrastructure, which is right overhead and can directly use the electricity. German railways have been trying to justify hydrogen-powered trains because it was too expensive to electrify many of their lines. Turning their rail beds into power sources might change the economics.
On the other hand, rail rights of way are generally a lot wider than the tracks; it might make more sense to fix the panels next to the tracks, pointing in the right direction instead of lying flat. German Rail is already a huge consumer of solar power from more conventional installations.
28．What does the author think of solar roadways
A．He thinks they are attractive.
B．He shows disapproval of them.
C．He believes they are underused.
D．He figures they are energy-saving.
29．What can we infer from the numbers in paragraph2
A．The solar railway has won wide recognition.
B．Germany is leading the world in rail transportation.
C．Fixing solar panels on railways in better than on roadways.
D．The solar railway has great potential for generating electricity.
30．What is the advantage of solar railways over solar roadways
A．The length of the railway.
B．The lower installation costs.
C．The safety of the solar panels.
D．The wider use of the electricity.
31．Which one could be the best title for the text
A．German roadways start to go downhill.
B．Solar railways are coming down the line.
C．German railway are facing a great challenge.
D．Solar energy becomes a cost-competitive alternative.
【答案】28．B 29．D 30．C 31．B
【导语】本文为一篇说明文，文章以德国太阳能铁路举例，介绍了太阳能铁路比起太阳能公路的众多优点。
28．推理判断题。根据文章第一段“But for me, the idea has little to recommend it. There is another kind of road —the railway—that might be a much better place for solar panels. And that’s what is happening in Germany, where the British company Bankset Energy is installing solar panels between the rails.(但对我来说，这个想法没有什么可取之处。还有另一种道路——铁路——可能是安装太阳能电池板更好的地方。这就是德国正在发生的事情，英国班克赛特能源公司正在铁轨之间安装太阳能电池板)”可知，作者不支持太阳能公路。故选B。
29．推理判断题。根据文章第二段“As estimated, 100 kilowatts of electricity can be generated per kilometer of railway line. Since the rail network in Germany is over 60,000 kilometers long, the power that can be generated is comparable to the output of five nuclear power plants in total.(据估计，每公里铁路线可产生100千瓦的电力。德国的铁路网长度超过6万公里，因此产生的电力相当于5座核电站的总和)”可推知，太阳能铁路具有巨大的发电潜力。故选D。
30．细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Trains generally stay on the rails, so there is no need to have solar panels designed to take any serious load. Although there is a serious amount of vibration, the panels wouldn’t shake apart. Railways usually own their rights of way and restrict access, so they have much better control.(火车通常在轨道上行驶，所以没有必要设计太阳能电池板来承受任何严重的负荷。虽然有很大的震动，但面板不会晃动开来。铁路公司通常拥有路权并限制进
入，所以他们有更好的控制)”可知，太阳能铁路优于太阳能公路的地方在于太阳能电池板的安全性更大。故选C。
31．主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“There is another kind of road —the railway—that might be a much better place for solar panels. And that’s what is happening in Germany, where the British company Bankset Energy is installing solar panels between the rails.(还有另一种道路——铁路——可能是安装太阳能电池板更好的地方。这就是德国正在发生的事情，英国班克赛特能源公司正在铁轨之间安装太阳能电池板)”及全文内容可知，本文用德国太阳能铁路举例，介绍了太阳能铁路的众多优点，B选项“太阳能铁路即将建成”适合作为最佳标题。故选B。
D
Last night, I told my Argentinian friend that I had been using LangAI to practice my Spanish. It can not only correct my errors, I told him, but also give me different regional expressions in the language, including Mexican Spanish, Argentinian Spanish, and Spanglish. And, unlike when I am chatting with him on WhatsApp, I do not have to factor in time zone differences.
My friend seemed less excited. “So, you’ve replaced me ” he joked. I haven’t, of course. The convenience and width of an AI chatbot can’t compete with the pleasures of chatting with someone whose personality I have learned over the course of years. It is, however, a useful supplement.
LangAI, one specific language-learning chatbot, was launched in March by Federico Ruiz Cassarino. He drew on his own experiences of learning English after moving from Uruguay to Britain.
Many people get self-conscious about making mistakes in a language they barely speak, even to a tutor, Ruiz Cassarino notes. But a chatbot won’t judge you. And the new wave of generative AI is so advanced that rather than stick to boring pre-scripted（照本宣科的） role-plays, “you can speak about things that are interesting to you, which makes it feel like not as much of a chore to learn.” To this end, the team customized LangAI’s interface to match users’ vocabulary levels, added the ability to make corrections during a conversation, and enabled the conversion of speech to text.
AI-powered language learning apps have weaknesses. Users are reporting that chatbots are quite competent in widely spoken European languages, but the quality substantially worsens for languages that are less represented online or that have different writing systems. Even in common languages, the chatbots make errors, sometimes inventing words. This may not bother advanced learners much, but with these chatbots delivering text so confidently, it would be easy for a relatively new learner to take what they say as correct.
32．What advantages does AI have over my friend
A．Fix every error in conversations. B．Display differences in languages.
C．Provide enjoyable conversations. D．Offer round-the-clock assistance.
33．What does the underlined word “It” in paragraph 2 refer to
A．The course of years. B．Practices on LangAI.
C．Chats on WhatsApp. D．The pleasures of chatting.
34．Why is Cassarino’s language learning experience mentioned
A．To highlight the inspiration behind LangAI’s creation.
B．To illustrate the challenges faced by language learners.
C．To compare the differences between different languages.
D．To show LangAI’s emphasis on personalized experiences
35．What can LangAI do to support language learners
A．Scoring users’ performance in conversations.
B．Generating speech according to the given text.
C．Creating new words by the rules of word formation.
D．Providing dialogues based on users’ language proficiency.
【答案】32．D 33．B 34．A 35．D
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章通过讲述LangAI的使用情况，说明了使用LangAI练习语言的优点和不足。
32．细节理解题。根据第一段中“And, unlike when I am chatting with him on WhatsApp, I do not have to factor in time zone differences.(而且，与我在WhatsApp上与他聊天时不同，我不需要考虑时区差异的因素。)”可知，AI的优势是可以提供全天候帮助。故选D项。
33．词句猜测题。划线词句前文“The convenience and width of an AI chatbot can’t compete with the pleasures of chatting with someone whose personality I have learned over the course of years. (人工智能聊天机器人的便利性和广度无法和与我多年来了解的人聊天的乐趣相比。)”描述了使用人工智能聊天机器人练习语言的特点，从而推知划线词句“It is, however, a useful supplement. (然而，It是一种有用的补充。)”其中划线代词指代的是“使用LangAI练习语言”。故选B项。
34．推理判断题。根据第三段“LangAI, one specific language-learning chatbot, was launched in March by Federico Ruiz Cassarino. He drew on his own experiences of learning English after moving from Uruguay to Britain. (今年3月，Federico Ruiz Cassarino推出了一款专门学习语言的聊天机器人LangAI。他借鉴了自己从乌拉圭搬到英国后学习英语的经历。)”可知，提到Cassarino的语言学习经历是为了突出LangAI创作背后的灵感。故选A项。
35．细节理解题。根据第四段中“To this end, the team customized LangAI’s interface to match users’ vocabulary levels, added the ability to make corrections during a conversation, and enabled the conversion of speech to text. (为此，该团队定制了LangAI的界面，以匹配用户的词汇量水平，增加了在对话中进行更正的能力，并实现了语音到文本的转换。)”可知，LangAI能
根据用户的语言水平提供对话来支持语言学习者。故选D项。

就学会了游泳，你也可以考虑报名参加游泳班）”讲即使会游泳，也可以报名参加游泳班，与上文构成递进关系，且下文“You can learn how to more effectively work out in the pool with just a few lessons.（你只需几节课即可学习如何更有效地在游泳池中锻炼）”中“more effectively work out”与G项中“if you learned to swim as a child”相照应,，说明会游泳还要参加游泳班的原因，上下文语意连贯。故选G项。

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。
注意：续写词数应为150字左右。
In the classroom of Class 7, Grade 8, students were excited about an upcoming event. The school had organized a speech competition titled “Ways to Become Successful,” and many students were eager to showcase their public speaking skills. Among them was 13-year-old Zora, who, had already won two speech contests and was full of confidence that she could win again.
Zora volunteered to represent her class in the competition, and after a round of voting, she was chosen as the class representative. Although there were only seven days left until the big day, Zora felt a sense of ease about the competition. After all, she had been here before and knew what it took to win.
At home, Zora’s father congratulated her on her achievement, while her mother reminded her to take the competition seriously. Despite her parents’ advice, Zora was convinced that her past successes meant this would be a walk in the park. Her teacher also urged her to prepare diligently, but Zora only sought help once to revise her initial draft.
As the days went by, Zora did not put in the necessary effort to refine her speech. When the day of the competition arrived, she was hit with a sudden wave of panic. She couldn’t remember the content of her speech, and as she stepped onto the stage, her anxiety only grew. After delivering the opening lines, she froze, unable to continue. The supportive applause from the audience only added to her confusion, leaving no room for her to recall her prepared words.
Zora struggled through the rest of her speech, finishing it in a state of embarrassment and shame. As she walked off the stage, she saw the disappointment in her teacher’s eyes and felt the letdown from her classmates. It was a heavy burden to bear.
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。
Back at home, Zora could no longer hold back her tears.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The next day, Zora went to school and apologized to her class.
_______________________________________________________________________________
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
Back at home, Zora could no longer hold back her tears. She felt the weight of her actions and the missed opportunity deeply. Sensing her depression, her father approached her with a comforting presence. Zora told her failure to her father, after which her father gently explained that acknowledging one’s mistakes was an important part of personal growth. He emphasized that true success wasn’t about never failing, but learning from those failures. He also proposed that Zora deliver a new speech in front of her class, reflecting on the authentic journey to success.
The next day, Zora went to school and apologized to her class. She then asked her teacher and classmates if she could give another speech in her class. They responded to her with warm applause. After careful preparation, Zora delivered a heartfelt speech about the importance of hard work and perseverance. Her classmates and teacher listened carefully, and showed their support and understanding with gentle nods. Through this experience, Zora learned a valuable lesson. Success is not just about talent or past achievements; it requires continuous effort and preparation.
【导语】本文以时间为线索展开，主要讲述了13岁的Zora已经赢得过两次演讲比赛，因此对自己再次获胜充满信心。她自愿代表班级参加比赛，并在投票中被选为班级代表。离比赛只剩下7天时，她却表现的过于轻松，认为自己知道怎样才能赢。尽管家人和老师多次提醒她认真对待比赛并付出努力，但Zora仍坚持认为以前的成功意味着一切会很顺利，只请老师帮忙修改过一次演讲稿。在比赛当天，Zora突然感到恐慌，甚至忘记了演讲的内容。上台后，她表现地很僵硬，最终在尴尬和羞愧中结束了演讲。走下舞台时，她感受到了老师和同学的失望，这给她带来沉重的负担。
【详解】1. 段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“回到家里，Zora再也忍不住流下了眼泪”可知，第一段可描写Zora得到父母的安慰，以及他们建议她从这次的失败中吸取教训，并重新练习做一次演讲。
②由第二段首句内容“第二天，Zora去学校向她的同学道歉”可知，第二段可描写Zora在同学面前认真地做了新的演讲，他们给予她理解和支持，以及Zora从整个经历中获得的感悟。
2. 续写线索：回家后Zora流泪——父母安慰——父母给出建议——Zora向同学道歉——Zora重新做演讲——感悟

Scott McKenzie and Jeremy Uhrich, two dads from Huntingdon, have transformed their passion for baking into a heartwarming community effort. This journey began when McKenzie, 58, found himself laid off and decided to learn a new skill every week. Baking was one of these new skills, and he was pleasantly surprised by the quality of his first batch of cookies. Proudly, he shared his creation on social media, catching the attention of Uhrich,a longtime friend, who playfully challenged him to a bake-off.
Uhrich, 42, baked with his sons that same day and proposed a competition to McKenzie. The two agreed to let community workers in the community judge the treats as a thank-you for their help during the challenging times. The competition was a success, but McKenzie and Uhrich didn’t stop there. They decided to deliver the rest of the cookies to community workers, sparking an idea that would eventually become Cookies for Caregivers.
The timing couldn’t have been more crucial—the community had recently experienced a terrible earthquake, leaving many homes destroyed and families displaced. As part of the rebuilding efforts, a Facebook group, Cookies for Caregivers was born. McKenzie and Uhrich allowed their neighbors to volunteer to make treats for first responders and business owners who were working tirelessly in the aftermath of the earthquake. Since the disaster struck, more than 100 people have joined the group, baking and delivering more than 15,000 cookies to workers at hospitals, grocery stores, fire departments, and more.
The impact of Cookies for Caregivers has been profound. Uhrich says “they’ve seen a lot of smiles and tears during deliveries”. The project has brought together members of the community who may have never interacted otherwise, all with a common goal of showing gratitude to those on the front lines of the rebuilding efforts after the earthquake. McKenzie says “they plan on continuing the effort because they are immensely grateful for the selfless contributions and want to express their appreciation to as many people as possible”.

Remember solar roadways, where solar panels were embedded (嵌入) in roads The idea of the solar roadway seems attractive because the solar resource is everywhere, and someday there will be a lot of electric cars that will need charging. But for me, the idea has little to recommend it. There is another kind of road — the railway — that might be a much better place for solar panels. And that’s what is happening in Germany, where the British company Bankset Energy is installing solar panels between the rails.
As estimated, 100 kilowatts of electricity can be generated per kilometer of railway line. Since the rail network in Germany is over 60,000 kilometers long, the power that can be generated is comparable to the output of five nuclear power plants in total.
But, why is putting solar panels is a railway better than a roadway Trains generally stay on the rails, so there is no need to have solar panels designed to take any serious load. Although there is a serious amount of vibration, the panels wouldn’t shake apart. Railways usually own their rights of way and restrict access, so they have much better control. They also own the electrical infrastructure, which is right overhead and can directly use the electricity. German railways have been trying to justify hydrogen-powered trains because it was too expensive to electrify many of their lines. Turning their rail beds into power sources might change the economics.
On the other hand, rail rights of way are generally a lot wider than the tracks; it might make more sense to fix the panels next to the tracks, pointing in the right direction instead of lying flat. German Rail is already a huge consumer of solar power from more conventional installations.
28．What does the author think of solar roadways
A．He thinks they are attractive.
B．He shows disapproval of them.
C．He believes they are underused.
D．He figures they are energy-saving.
29．What can we infer from the numbers in paragraph2
A．The solar railway has won wide recognition.
B．Germany is leading the world in rail transportation.
C．Fixing solar panels on railways in better than on roadways.
D．The solar railway has great potential for generating electricity.
30．What is the advantage of solar railways over solar roadways
A．The length of the railway.
B．The lower installation costs.
C．The safety of the solar panels.
D．The wider use of the electricity.
31．Which one could be the best title for the text
A．German roadways start to go downhill.
B．Solar railways are coming down the line.
C．German railway are facing a great challenge.
D．Solar energy becomes a cost-competitive alternative.

Last night, I told my Argentinian friend that I had been using LangAI to practice my Spanish. It can not only correct my errors, I told him, but also give me different regional expressions in the language, including Mexican Spanish, Argentinian Spanish, and Spanglish. And, unlike when I am chatting with him on WhatsApp, I do not have to factor in time zone differences.
My friend seemed less excited. “So, you’ve replaced me ” he joked. I haven’t, of course. The convenience and width of an AI chatbot can’t compete with the pleasures of chatting with someone whose personality I have learned over the course of years. It is, however, a useful supplement.
LangAI, one specific language-learning chatbot, was launched in March by Federico Ruiz Cassarino. He drew on his own experiences of learning English after moving from Uruguay to Britain.
Many people get self-conscious about making mistakes in a language they barely speak, even to a tutor, Ruiz Cassarino notes. But a chatbot won’t judge you. And the new wave of generative AI is so advanced that rather than stick to boring pre-scripted（照本宣科的） role-plays, “you can speak about things that are interesting to you, which makes it feel like not as much of a chore to learn.” To this end, the team customized LangAI’s interface to match users’ vocabulary levels, added the ability to make corrections during a conversation, and enabled the conversion of speech to text.
AI-powered language learning apps have weaknesses. Users are reporting that chatbots are quite competent in widely spoken European languages, but the quality substantially worsens for
languages that are less represented online or that have different writing systems. Even in common languages, the chatbots make errors, sometimes inventing words. This may not bother advanced learners much, but with these chatbots delivering text so confidently, it would be easy for a relatively new learner to take what they say as correct.
32．What advantages does AI have over my friend
A．Fix every error in conversations. B．Display differences in languages.
C．Provide enjoyable conversations. D．Offer round-the-clock assistance.
33．What does the underlined word “It” in paragraph 2 refer to
A．The course of years. B．Practices on LangAI.
C．Chats on WhatsApp. D．The pleasures of chatting.
34．Why is Cassarino’s language learning experience mentioned
A．To highlight the inspiration behind LangAI’s creation.
B．To illustrate the challenges faced by language learners.
C．To compare the differences between different languages.
D．To show LangAI’s emphasis on personalized experiences
35．What can LangAI do to support language learners
A．Scoring users’ performance in conversations.
B．Generating speech according to the given text.
C．Creating new words by the rules of word formation.
D．Providing dialogues based on users’ language proficiency.

In the classroom of Class 7, Grade 8, students were excited about an upcoming event. The school had organized a speech competition titled “Ways to Become Successful,” and many students were eager to showcase their public speaking skills. Among them was 13-year-old Zora, who, had already won two speech contests and was full of confidence that she could win again.
Zora volunteered to represent her class in the competition, and after a round of voting, she was chosen as the class representative. Although there were only seven days left until the big day, Zora felt a sense of ease about the competition. After all, she had been here before and knew what it took to win.
At home, Zora’s father congratulated her on her achievement, while her mother reminded her to take the competition seriously. Despite her parents’ advice, Zora was convinced that her past successes meant this would be a walk in the park. Her teacher also urged her to prepare diligently, but Zora only sought help once to revise her initial draft.
As the days went by, Zora did not put in the necessary effort to refine her speech. When the day of the competition arrived, she was hit with a sudden wave of panic. She couldn’t remember the content of her speech, and as she stepped onto the stage, her anxiety only grew. After delivering the opening lines, she froze, unable to continue. The supportive applause from the audience only added to her confusion, leaving no room for her to recall her prepared words.
Zora struggled through the rest of her speech, finishing it in a state of embarrassment and shame. As she walked off the stage, she saw the disappointment in her teacher’s eyes and felt the letdown from her classmates. It was a heavy burden to bear.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
