When 19-year-old Emily Bhatnagar from Maryland, USA, found out her father had stage four
thyroid(甲状腺) cancer, her response was a little different than you might expect. To honour her father,
who she also describes as her best friend, she decided to start a book drive called For Love and
Buttercup, collecting books for kids with cancer.
“It was very much an overnight idea,” she explains. “I posted a message on an app called
Nextdoor asking my neighbours for used book donations. I was only expecting a few here and there,
but the response was truly incredible, and it was just the push I needed to co-exist with my grief rather
than letting it consume me.
“It was absolutely heartbreaking to watch my dad go through cancer and see him lose a little bit
of himself each day, but the book drive allowed me to develop a newfound sense of purpose combined
with an even greater sense of compassion(同情)to help others in any shape or form. I wanted to help
kids. They’ve always held a soft spot in my heart.”
Using tips she earns from working at her parents’ bread shop, Emily has bought many books out
of her own pocket. In addition, she receives donations through her Amazon wish list, which can be
found in the bio of the book drive’s Instagram account.
Emily and her older brother spent a whole summer driving around town, loading boxes of books
into their car. “It was such an honour knowing people have carried these books all their lives through
generations, and they wanted to gift it to my cause.”
The project has seen huge success, with For Love and Buttercup donating over 15,000 books and
being recognized by The Washington Post, Forbes, The President’s Volunteer Service Award and Lady
Gaga’s Born This Way Foundation.
24. Why did Emily decide to start a book drive
A. To raise money for kids with cancer.
B. To show respect for her sick father.
C. To recycle used books from neighbours.
D. To draw more attention from the media.
25. What can we learn about Emily from Paragraph 3

3M and Discovery Education announced Sean Jiang from Gilman School as one of the top ten
finalists from across the nation for the 2023 3M Young Scientist Challenge. It’s a competition that
encourages students to identify an everyday problem and submit a video showing the science behind
the solution he or she came up with.
14-year-old Jiang decided to help those who can’t see. Blind people had a hard time navigationg
（导航） objects that are medium to far range. So Jiang wanted to design something to give them a
heads-up on obstacles （障碍） that may be incoming.
Jiang’s inspiration came from the powers of the hearing system. “I learned in school that bats and
whales are able to use echolocation （回声定位） to help them navigate and just use their sense of
hearing and I also saw on YouTube some very skilled blind people that use echolocation to help them
walk,” said Jiang.
Jiang started with a virtual reality setting and then made it a reality. His creation uses a depth
camera that can detect how close objects are, thus giving enough time to avoid the obstacles. When a
blind is walking with the device, the sensor of the depth camera gathers the information regarding the
obstacles’ position and distance. Then the AI system in it will turn the distance data into musical
sound guidance. This could significantly increase the walking speed of a blind person as well as
decrease the number of obstacles they hit.
Some other similar programs were alright at finding objects that were in close range, but Jiang
still wanted the blind to experience the world even fuller so they were able to see stuff that was much
further away than their circle of reach.
In October, the top ten finalists will compete in person in Minneapolis for the title of “America’s
Top Young Scientist” and a $25,000 prize.
28．What’s the main purpose of the 2023 3M Young Scientist Challenge
A．It is to encourage students to find problems and build their confidence
B．It is to help schools select talents.
C．It is to develop students’ teamwork and creativity.
D. It is to inspire students to recognize a daily problem and demonstrate the scientific principle
behind the solution.
29．What does the underlined word “heads-up” mean in paragraph 2
A．Advance warning
C．One-on-one match.
B．Brief report.
D．Raising head.

A．He was the champion of the 2023 3M event.
B．He sought to assist the blind in walking smoothly
C．He invented technology to remove road obstacles.
D．He developed a new navigation app for his school.
31．What is Paragraph 3 mainly about
A．How did the device help the blind.
B．The reason Jiang entered the competition
C．The source of inspiration for Sean Jiang’s invention.
D．Jiang’s device’s creation process.

When answering a question, your silence might say more than your words. A new psychology
study has found pausing before replying, even for just a few seconds, can make you seem more
insincere or dishonest. That perception (感知) of dishonesty might not be too inaccurate, either.
Numerous studies suggest people are slower to respond when they are not being truthful, possibly
because it takes more mental work to block a truthful response or fabricate (编造) an alternative.
What’s been less clear is how well our lies have been fooling people. Some studies suggest
delayed answers come across as insincere to the listener. Others find no relationship between the two,
and still more have found the opposite: A bit of hesitation increases our perception of sincerity. These
findings are inconsistent and confusing. They are also mostly based on correlations. Even the few
studies that have actually looked at causal relationships often didn’t consider confusing factors that
could also give away a liar or an insincere speaker.
The new research seeks to improve some of those limitations by examining thousands of people
under a variety of conditions. Together, it involves more than 7, 500 individuals in a total of 14
experiments. On the whole, the authors found an immediate response was perceived as more sincere,
while a delayed response, even a delay as brief as two seconds, was seen as more insincere.
“Evaluating other people’s sincerity is an important part of social interactions.” says consumer
behaviour researcher Ignazio Ziano.
“It would be unfair for the responder, such as a crime suspect, if the response delay was
misattributed to (错误地归因于) thought suppression (抑制) or answer fabrication (谎言) when it
was in fact caused by a different factor, such as simply being distracted or thoughtful.” explains
Ziano.
32. What can we infer from the first paragraph
A. Quicker replies to questions make you seem reliable.
B. Preparing a truthful response needs more mental work.
C. The impression of dishonesty isn’t always accurate.
D. The perception of dishonesty depends on your silence
33. According to paragraph 3, how do researchers carry out their research
A. By studying the findings of several previous research projects.
B. By collecting data from the database from a new research
C. By examining thousands of people in various situations.
D. By analyzing the circumstances of the responses involved.
34. Why does Ziano say it is unfair for the responder in the last paragraph
A. Listeners should ignore the pauses.
B. A real criminal could escape quietly.

How to Grow Taller
As we all know, your height is mostly determined by your genetics. Once your growth plates
（生长板）are joined together, you will stop growing taller, which usually happens between 14 and 20.
36 Of course, there are many ways you can find on the Internet to help, such as, good nutrition, a
healthy lifestyle and exercise. But today, we’re just going to focus on nutrition.
Add more protein into your diet.
Protein helps your body build healthy body mass, like muscles. 37
Not only eat protein
at every meal, but also include it in your snacks. For instance, you might eat yogurt at breakfast, tuna
fish for lunch, chicken at dinner, and string cheese as a snack.
Eat an egg every day if you’re not allergic to them.
Kindergarten teachers have observed something typical and interesting. Young children who eat a
whole egg daily may grow taller than kids who don’t. And this has been proved clinically. Eggs
contain protein and vitamins that support healthy growth and they’re also quite affordable. Eat an egg
for one meal every day to potentially help you get taller. But here is a tip for you. 38
Take calcium and vitamin supplements.
39
However, your daily meals can’t supply enough for your growth. Supplements may
help you grow taller by meeting your nutritional needs. Calcium and vitamins A and D are especially
important because they support strong bones. Talk to your doctor to find out if supplements are right
for you. Keep in mind that vitamins won’t make you grow taller than your genetics allow.
40
Dairy contains protein, calcium, and vitamins to nourish your body. While milk is a great choice,
yogurt and cheese are also great sources of dairy. Include 1 serving of your favorite dairy product into
your daily diet.
A. Keep a balanced diet.
B. This can help you be your tallest.
C. Consume a serving of dairy each day.
D. Please ask your doctor if it’s safe for you to do so.
E. Minerals and nutrients play a key role in growing higher.
F. Luckily, taking good care of your body may still help you grow taller.
G. You might increase your height by about1.3 to 5.1 cm by stretching out your spine daily.

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。
The library was typically so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. But on this Wednesday
afternoon, there was a roar of laughter that spread through the halls. It was coming from a table in the
back. Books were piled so high that one could barely see the source of all the noise. Brian and Josie
were hiding behind the mountain of history texts, their faces bright red from laughing.
Mrs Cane, the librarian, followed the laughter and then approached the table. As she cleared her
throat and looked over the piles of books, Brian and Josie looked up to meet her gaze. Mrs Cane
looked at the books, then at the kids. “And what is it you two are supposed to be working on ”
Brian hesitated a moment, and then answered, “We’re working on a paper for our history class.”
“I see,” Mrs Cane said harshly. “Perhaps one of the private reading rooms would be a better
place for you to concentrate and study. Quietly.”
The kids collected their books and their backpacks and followed Mrs Cane down a long hallway
until they got to a dark row of doors. Mrs Cane pulled out a ring of keys from her pocket and
unlocked a door. She turned on the light, which shone brightly overhead. The kids placed their books
on the dusty table and reluctantly(不情愿地) climbed into the chairs. Brian and Josie shrugged(耸肩)
and opened their books, finally focusing on the project at hand.
Time was ticking away. After what seemed like hours, Brian and Josie decided to take a break
and when Josie opened the door of the room, Brian’s eyes opened wide. The library was completely
dark. Looking at his watch, he let out a gasp. “It’s 9:30! The library closed an hour ago!”
Paragraph 1:
Brian looked through his backpack for his cellphone. ___________________________________

Sample:
Dear friends,
In order to raise students’ awareness of protecting the environment, I’m writing to call on everyone to take part in “building a greener campus”.
As we all know, climate change and pollution have seriously affected our life. Therefore, everyone of us should take the responsibility of protecting the environment. To start with, saving energy is protecting the environment. Turning off taps and lights immediately is the first step. What’s more, waste sorting is of great significance to protecting the environment. Last but not least, the key to protecting the environment is to plant trees. This is because trees can absorb carbon dioxide, helping reduce the greenhouse effect.
Only by protecting the environment in our daily life, will our planet have a bright future.
With best wishes,
Li Hua
Paragraph 1:
Brian looked through his backpack for his cellphone. Unfortunately, there was no cellphone inside. “I left my phone at home so we cannot call anyone for help!” Brian cried out, and looked at Josie anxiously. Josie turned back, “Calm down, Brian. I remember seeing a telephone at the entrance to the library, maybe we can reach Mrs Cane on the telephone.” Then, in a hurry, Brian put the books into his backpack and left the room with Josie. It was dark outside, and the two kids tried to figure out where they should go. Slowly, they were inching towards the entrance, comforting each other.
Paragraph 2:
They heard a noise that sounded like a telephone ringing. They felt their way in the darkness toward the sound, and found a telephone on the wall. Trembling with excitement, Brian answered the phone, and heard Mrs Cane’s voice on the line: “Sorry, Brian. I forgot you and Josie were in the library. Now I’m coming to get you guys out.” Hanging up the phone, Brian breathed a sigh of relief. Just in a second, Mrs Cane arrived. Excited and overjoyed, Mrs Cane rushed forward and hugged the kids tightly, praising their calmness. It was through this accidental experience that Brian and Josie learned there is always a way out when a problem arises.
