For centuries, the “Big Four” diamonds, red stones, green stones and blue stones—ruled the gem (珠宝) world. When tanzanite first appeared in 1967, it became a hit. Unlike those other stones, which are mined all over the world, tanzanite can be found in only one place on Earth: in the remote Merelani Hills in the shadow of Mt. Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, Africa.
Gem of the century meets deal of the century. With its remarkable rarity and unique gemstone qualities, it’s no wonder that experts have called it “the gemstone of the 20th century”. In recent years, top-quality tanzanite gems have fetched higher prices at auction (拍卖会) than the Big Four! But because we buy direct and use our own designers, we are able to offer you this rare beauty for ONLY $59!
What makes tanzanite so irresistible to gem experts Part of its appeal is the beautiful violet blue color. Tanzanite is also trichroic— which means that three different colors are visible when the stone is viewed from different angles. A gemstone found in only one place on earth means supply is extremely limited. Get your hands on the Karatu Tanzanite Ring before they’re gone!
Your satisfaction is 100% guaranteed. Experience the rare beauty of the Karatu Tanzanite Ring for two months. If you’re not completely impressed, simply send it back within 60 days for a complete return of the sale price. We want you to feel like you got the deal of the century!

A. A ring brand. B. A kind of stone.

Repositioning the light for the third time, Reilly leaned (倾斜) the phone at an angle she thought would make her face look skinny. She prepared herself for her best smile in3,2, 1!
Finally! A picture she can work with. Everyone else in school had a social media account and nobody knows how hard she tried to eventually get mom’s permission. She had been sitting up her account for days, and the picture of herself was the final touch.
She had worked cautiously creating her profile. Her hometown was boring, so she filled in a more exciting one several towns over. Her job was nonexistent since she was only 14, but she filled in “Accountant”. Why not Seemed like a cool job. And she was getting good at making a perfect account here, so “accountant” was fitting.
She wrote her first post. Then deleted it. She wanted to avoid sounding like she just started an account. She thought of something brilliant. 江苏省海安高级中学 景苏华QQ:771515126
“Hey new account here, had to. You know, locked out of my other one. Add me here!”
Now people would think she had to start this one because an old one got hacked (非法入侵)，and they just didn’t know she had none before. Then the “friend spread” would happen. The website would start suggesting her page to friends of friends until she grew her list to a respectable size.
It was starting already! Friend requests on her list. A comment! “Gorgeous (漂亮的) girl!” It was from Amy, in her science class. Reilly felt gorgeous.
At school, Reilly looked around wondering who saw her new profile.
“Hey. Saw your new account,” Nora, her best friend, said from somewhere behind her.
“How does it look ” Reilly asked.
“It looks pretty cool. But, I almost didn’t know it was you, Reilly,” Nora smiled. “And just in case you forget, you are good enough as you are.”
24. What was Reilly busy doing these days
A. Looking for a cool jot
B. Chatting with friends online.

A new network of dedicated antennas (天线) in Africa will lend insight into the damage that storms of charged particles (粒子) from the sun make on satellite and radio communications. Zambia set up its first such sensor in March—one of eight multifrequency receivers being stationed around Africa, in addition to four already operating in South Africa. Kenya and Nigeria will set up their receivers by the end of the year. 江苏省海安高级中学 景苏华QQ:771515126
The Space Weather network that extends over Africa will provide real-time data on how solar storms distort (扭曲) the ionosphere, the charged outer layer of Earth's atmosphere. This distortion can have dangerous consequences, says Mpho Tshisaphungo, a space weather researcher at the South African National Space Agency (SANSA). Signals between crucial satellites and the ground pass through this region, where charged particles can cause interference (干扰). Also, high-frequency radio signals (often used in defense and emergency services communications) have to bounce off the ionosphere; Tshisaphungo notes that when solar storms change the layer, “the radio signal may either be weakened, delayed or absorbed by the ionosphere.”
“While there are data available from international space weather programs, if you want to look at what’s happening on the African continent, then you need to take measurements in Africa,” says John Habarulema, a space scientist at SANSA. Habarulema’s team developed a model last year that maps electron density (电子密度) in the ionosphere and fills in measurement gaps. The new local receivers will boost this model's accuracy and let it describe fluctuations (波动) over the full continent. “We need to have the global perspective and put that data into our global models,” says Terry Onsager, a U.S. physicist. “But at the same time, space weather disturbances can vary enormously from location to location.” And it is becoming increasingly important to model the ionosphere’s behavior, he says, because “we’re getting more and more reliant on techmologies that are reliant on space weather.”
28. What is the function of the newly-set antennas in Africa
A. To prevent possible distortion of the ionosphere.
B. To analyse the weather changing records of the region.
C. To improve internet connectivity in African rural areas.
D. To monitor solar storms’ effects on radio communications.
29. Which of the following is a “dangerous consequence” according to paragraph 2
A. Satellites may be destroyed.
B. Crucial signals may be blocked.
C. Bad weather may strike the earth.
D. Charged particles may be weakened.
30. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The development of global weather models.
B. The factors of accurate space measurement.
C. The importance of collecting global climate data.
D. The necessity of building multifrequency receivers in Africa.
31. What is the best title for the text
A. The sun takes people on earth by storm
B. Joint efforts in need to deal with solar storms
C. New space weather network extends over Africa
D. Africa on board to protect radio communications
D
How could anyone dislike giving and receiving gifts A good gift can be totally life changing. Gifts are so meaningful that some people identify “receiving gifts” as their primary “love language”. Indeed, on the surface, gift-giving occasions seem like wonderful opportunities to experience and create delight. But according to a 2023 survey, gift-giving and receiving is actually the least popular love language overall.
The problem is that occasions that involve gift giving are full of uncertainty. If it’s an occasion like Christmas, where people are shopping for each other at the same time, people might still be nervous about whether the gift they give will be in the same category as the gift they will also receive. For instance, you don’t want to give someone a gag (恶作剧) gift when they're giving you a sincere, heartfelt gift. Mismatched approaches to gift-giving are a common recipe for awkwardness.
There can also be enormous uncertainty around how your gift will be experienced by the receiver. Imagine that a close friend is showing some signs of seasonal affective disorder, and you’re giving him a therapy (疔法) lamp as a gift. True, he may very well be appreciative, indicating that this is “just what he needed.” But what if he interprets the gift as an unwelcome piece of commentary on his affective state One could imagine a reaction along the lines of “Gosh, I’m sorry I’ve been so unpleasant to be around,” The message we send is not necessarily the same as the message received. 江苏省海安高级中学 景苏华QQ:771515126
Worst of all, there’s the anxiety that comes with receiving gifts. If you are like me, you may have found yourself in a setting where you expect a lot of well-meaning but disappointing gifts are headed your way. There can be some fear that comes with knowing that you'll soon need to perform joy and appreciation. Even worse, you might worry that the gift-giver will detect your insincerity, wounding them in the process.
It's not all bad, of course. When done carefully, gift-giving can be a wonderful way to draw people closer together, in a lasting way.
32. Gift giving is full of uncertainty because ______.
A. people prepare insincere gifts for others
B. the gifts they give are of the same category
C. people shop for gifts for different occasions
D. mismatched gift- giving frequently happens
33. An example of the therapy lamp is used to illustrate ______.
A. trust can be earned through gift-giving
B. misunderstanding can arise from gift-giving
C. harmony can be achieved through gift-giving
D. depression can be a byproduct of gift-giving
34. What makes a gift-receiver most anxious
A. Expressing disappointment over the gifts.
B. Having pretended delight at the gifts uncovered.
C. Expecting well-intentioned gifts from friends.
D. Fearing to extend appreciation for the gifts.
35. What is the author’s attitude towards gift giving
A. Supportive. B. Opposed. C. Objective. D. Unclear.

The colorblind don’t just suffer limited career choices (pilot is out), they also miss some of life’s biggest pleasures—brilliant sunsets, the ability to determine if a tomato is ripe. “ 36 ” says University of Washington ophthalmology professor Jay Neitz, who has devoted his career to studying color deficiency (缺陷).“Color makes us happy.” 江苏省海安高级中学 景苏华QQ:771515126
Cells in the retina (视网膜) normally help the brain translate light waves into what we perceive as colors. When those cells lack red or green photo pigments (光色素)，it causes the most common colorblind disorder, troubling 1-in- 12 men and 1-in-230 women. It’s the most common single-gene disadvantage in the population. So far, there's no cure. 37
Neitz and his wife, Maureen, with other scientists, have successfully tested a gene treatment on male squirrel monkeys, all of which are colorblind. First, they packed a normal human photo pigment gene into a harmless virus, then surgically put it through needle under the monkeys retinas. Five months later, the moneys passed a color test. 38 This test gave the team a shot in the arm.
39 Among other things, it could cause blindness. So the Neizes are working on a safer gene-delivery method, a shot that is delivered int the vitreous (玻璃体). One problem, though: There’s no certainty that genes introduced into the vitreous will get where they need to go. “The virus itself will have to go through the retina to get to the cells,” says Neitz. “ 40 ”To our relief, a new company, En Chroma, is making glasses that enhance color perception, and that buys us some time.”
A. Soon that may change.
B. Neither is there much hope.
C. Human clinical trials are far from safe.
D. We don’t have that working perfectly yet.
E. Nobody chooses a black-and-white TV over color.
F. They were awarded treats for picking colors on a computer.
G. Sticking a needle deep in a human eye, however, is risky.

Standing in the line to pay, Sally Litte hid her face when she saw the young man standing nearby. She couldn’t chance his recognizing her. She had no doubt who he was, though she hadn’t seen him for over a decade. The panic attacks had finally faded, but she’d never forgotten Creech.
Now, the frightening figure stood almost within reach of her. There was no mistaking his large build, and the same brown hair. Who else could it be
His size wasn’t what disturbed her. A bully (霸凌者)，he’d scared the children in her town. And he singled her out, threatening that she shall pay the price for what she did.
Sally became famous at her school, at thirteen years of age. She saw Creech beating a defenseless kid. A circle of kids watched until Sally stopped the fight by courageously smashing (摔) her ice cream all over his face.
She could still remember Creech's shocked face as he ran away.
Later, her family moved to another town, and Sally never saw him again. Until now.
Sally considered leaving the line. But the ice cream she'd ordered was almost ready. She could feel him behind her. The cashier moved toward the register with her ice cream. As Sally moved to pay, Creech stepped up and handed the cashier a five-dollar bill.
He said, “I’ll get that, miss. Keep the change. Thanks.” He took the ice cream.
“That’s mine. What are you doing ” 江苏省海安高级中学 景苏华QQ:771515126
“My treat. If you don't mind." Towering over her, he offered her the ice cream.
“I do mind.”
“Aren’t you Sally Sally Little Lincoln Middle School ”
She felt trapped. Sally took the ice cream and followed Creech toward an open table. He pulled out a chair for her and smiled, “I just want to say hello, and cancel an old debt.”
She was confused, “you don’t owe me anything.”
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
He smiled, “Sally, you changed my life.” Sally’s gaze fell upon the ice cream in her hand when the past came to mind.

Helping out with housework
Our newspaper has conducted research on how high school students help their parents with housework. Here are the results.
The bar chart shows that 68% of the students help tidy up bedrooms and 45% wash the dishes. Surprisingly, those doing the cooking and the laundry only take up 5% and 9% respectively. The survey indicates that students have preference for simple housework, while household chores requiring more skills and physical effort are not equally favored. 江苏省海安高级中学 景苏华QQ:771515126
It is high time that students dedicated time to mastering various domestic skills, which can greatly develop our all-round abilities. (95 words)

He smiled, “Sally, you changed my life” It took quite a while for his words to set in. Confused, Sally decided to hear him out. “was a bully, remember ” Creech’s admission surprised her. Despite years spent forgetting, Sally instantly recalled the day she embarrassed Creech in public, when Creech threatened her and left. “I know nothing could justify the harm I brought to others, but you were the first ever to stand up and stop me before it was too late.” He searched for words, revealing his side of the story. (85 words) 江苏省海安高级中学 景苏华QQ:771515126
Sally’s gaze fell upon the ice cream in her hand when the past came to mind. How could Sally imagine the ice cream incident should have made such a difference to Creech’s life. She joked, “I remembered you stormed away like a giant, red-haired unicorn.” Creech shrugged, “I was a fool. That’s why I bought you ice cream today to pay you back for that one you ‘gave’ me.” They both laughed. Holding up her cone, Sally sighed with a newfound faith that no matter how scary it may be to do the right thing, in the end, it’s worth it. (85 words)
