At Country side High School in Clearwater, Fla 16-year-old Sage Waite is already taking a class in cybersecurity, and she’d welcome one that’s in the works on cyber disinformation.
“For the longest time, I didn’t actually know what disinformation was,” said Waite, who’s in the 11th grade “There was always the idea that things could be wrong in what you’re hearing and what you’re being told. But the idea of misinformation and disinformation wasn’t in my day-to-day.” This past year, she says, has been an eye-opener. “My friends and I definitely started looking into stuff more and doing more research after that,” she said.
A new program on “digital literacy,” with a focus on topics like disinformation, is in the pipeline, thanks in part to Mike McConnel, who is now working to fight false information aimed at young people. “We need to understand this so we can appreciate what’s happening to us, and be able to not only understand it, but also to navigate through it,” McConnell said. “That’s what I call digital literacy.”
McConnell is executive director of Cyber Florida, which is based at the University of South Florida in Tampa. The group works with kids throughout the state at universities, high schools, and even those in younger grades. Cyber Florida helped setup the cybersecurity program now being taught at many Florida schools. The new project Cyber Citizenship, is even more ambitious. “We think if we can do this for Florida, we can spread it across the nation,” he said.
The expanded program now in the works aims to make digital literacy something all Florida students get, at several grade levels, before they finish high school.
There’s no date yet for the cyber disinformation classes in Florida, but computer teacher Jason Felt says it can’t come soon enough and he is ready to embrace it.
“The Internet is a wonderful tool. It’s connected us in a way that’s never really been seen before. But it’s a blessing and it’s also a curse.”
Teaching students the difference, he says, is a huge challenge.
24. What can we learn about the class that Sage Waite is taking from the first two paragraphs
A. It receives a cold welcome. B. It aims to form a bond.
C. It focuses on technologies. D. It has a positive impact.
25. What is digital literacy according to Me Connell
A. The specific strategies for protecting privacy.
B. The inborn capacity to track fake information
C. The general skills of maintaining cybersecurity.
D. The overall ability to handle online information
26. What is the vision of Cyber Citizenship
A. To outperform Cybersecuritiy. B. To take the lead in the world.
C. To reach a wider range of students. D. To make a substantial profit.
27. What is Jason Felt’s attitude towards the cyber disinformation classes
A. Welcoming. B. Unclear. C. Opposed. D. Prejudiced.

While many animal populations seem to dwindle, one species that is moving in the opposite direction of such loss is America’s native wildlife—wood stork.
The wood stork is the only stork that breeds in North America. In 1984, it was declared an endangered species after its population decreased sharply to just 5, 000 mating pairs. At the time, scientists predicted that the bird would become completely extinct by 2000.Today, it numbers 10, 000 mating pairs, and the Fish and Wildlife Service is proposing a delisting of the wood stork as an endangered species. So how did the population bounce back
The success is in part down to the resourcefulness of the wood stork. The wood stork’s native home was in the Everglades in Florida, but it migrated north as the Everglades were being destroyed by development of mankind. Wetland preservation and restoration, protection of nesting areas, and management of water flows began with the approval of the wood stork’s first recovery plan in 1986.In the following year, former Savannah Coastal Refuges biologist John Robinette noticed stork nests in Georgia as stork populations moved to safer wetlands.
According to Stephanie Kurose, a senior policy specialist at the Centre for Biological Diversity, the Endangered Species Act is also to thank for this recovery. She said, “The act saved the wood stork and it helped preserve and rebuild vital habitats throughout the southeast, which has improved water quality and benefited countless other species who call the area home.” “The Endangered Species Act has saved 999per cent of the species that were on the list since 1973. A hundred types of plants and-animals have been delisted as their populations becomes table again
If the wood stork is delisted, it will remain protected by other laws and a monitoring plan will be put in place to ensure the population remains stable.
28. What does the underlined word dwindle probably mean
A. Boost. B. Change. C. Explode. D. Decline.
29. What can we learn about the wood stork in paragraph two
A. Its population shows a rising trend B. It has become completely extinct.
C. It is widely distributed worldwide. D. It.is the most endangered species.
30. What threatened the population of the wood stock
A. Climate change of Earth. B. Impact of human activities
C. Popularity of watersports D. Arrival of other wild animals.
31. What is a direct result of the Endangered Species Act
A. People have safer water to drink. B. The wood stock has flown away.
C. The local economy has boomed. D. A list of species have been saved.
D
Aeronautics(航空学)specialists from the University of South Australia spent months studying the dragonfly’s flight, creating 3D models from digital images, to build a winged drone((无人机). Study leader Javaan Chahl believes that winged drones based on the dragonfly’s shape and movement t will simply be more flexible and energy efficient.
Chahl’s team used a special photography; technique to classify the wing shapes of 75 different dragonfly species from museum collections. Their wings are long, light and hard. Plus, their long bodies give them excellent stability and balance, making it possible for winged drones to deliver. awkward loads and undertake long observation missions.
Investigating the way that dragonflies remains table during flight actually reveals the techniques they use to get themselves out of tricky situations. Dragonflies are found to be able to perform upside-down backflip store gain balance and normal flight, when they find themselves upside down mid-air. This special skill can even be performed while dragonflies are unconscious, meaning it is a passive stability mechanism similar in concept to planes that are designed to glide to safety with their engines turned off. Engineers are looking to copy dragonfly wings to create safer drones that can right themselves.
Of course, not all attempts to build dragonfly-like drones are successful. TechJet’s air vehicle was supposed to operate as an aerial camera, observation and security drone, but it failed before production got underway. Similarly, Insectothopter, an American dragonfly spy drone built in the 1970swa deserted.
Yet the principles behind winged drones are solid. In fact, NASA has settled on a nuclear-powered autonomous craft called Dragonfly to explore the surface of Saturn’s moon Titan in 2034. NASA’s project is actually an air vehicle, rather than a winged drone, but engineers are still convinced they can crack the code of nature’s most gifted flying insect and revolutionize unmanned flight along the way.
32. Why did aeronautics specialists spend months studying the dragonfly’s flight
A. To make winged drones modelled after it.
B. To build 3D models from digital images.
C. To clarify the flexibility and efficiency of drones.
D. To display the shape and movement of the dragonfly.
33. The special skill of dragonflies is their ability to .
A. glide to safety B. avoid tricky situations
C. perform observation tasks D. adjust themselves to stay stable
34. Why the author mentions TechJet’s air vehicle and Insectothopter in para.4
A. To showcase the inventions of engineers.
B. To compare dragonfly-like drones with other aircrafts.
C. To illustrate failed attempts of building dragonfly-like drones.
D. To explain the disadvantages of these aircrafts.
35. Which can be a suitable title for the text
A. Winged Drones: Still a Long Way to Go
B. Javaan Chahl: An Innovative Leader of Aeronautics
C. A Dragonfly’s Flying Technique:Perfect for Drones
D. The Code of Nature: A Solution to NASA’s Space Exploration

You may feel your backbreaking and low-paid: part-time summer job isn’t worth you effort. 36 Here are some you can enjoy.
When landing a job, you’ll put yourself into unfamiliar territory and learn how to survive and develop there. 37 Whether it’s learning a new skill or dealing with a tough boss, you must rely on yourself for solutions, through which you can buildup yourself-belief.
Hanging around all summer is a great way to relax, but it won’t contribute to your time management skill. 38 This skill helps you decide what should be accomplished in a day and learn how to handle those things to make it happen, which involves prioritizing, planning and judging how much you can realistically finish. The best way to develop this skill is through practice. With loads of free time, you’ll likely not have to flex your time-management muscles.
39 Take it easy. Most people change their minds many times before settling on their long-term career. Getting out into the workforce as a waiter at a cafe may not help you see what it’ll be like as a doctor but you’ll figure out whether you like to work with people or whether you can work efficiently under pressure. A summer job helps zero in on your likes and dislikes to evaluate your strengths and resolve your weaknesses
Chances are that your social circle is comprised of people in your age group. However, in a job, you’ll work with diverse groups of people, from whom you’ll learn varying viewpoints and experiences. 40

“Oh, no!” Jack shouted while looking at the likes and comments on his recent TikTok video.
“Why aren’t people reacting to my content as they used to ”
Jack was a 19-year-old strong and muscular man addicted to the gym. He loved recording exercise videos and posting them on his TikTok account. Initially, his video logs (vlogs) were popular, but his posts’ reach soon decreased.
Jack wondered why people had stopped sharing and liking his videos, “Maybe my audience is tired of watching me workout in the gym,” he thought, determined to change the location of his videos.
The following day, Jack went to the neighborhood park and began filming while walking on the track. “Hi, guys! How about we shake things up a little I’m to work out in the park today!” he said excitedly, looking into the camera lens (镜头).
“Les look for a good spot to warm up,” he said a she walked towards a bench(长椅), on which sat an elderly lady. Jack thought the bench was the perfect place to film his video because of the light
He put his tripod stand(三脚架) on the bench and set the camera, but he felt like he needed the full bench. He wanted to place his camera where the lady sat, so he gestured to her to move, but the woman didn’t seem to understand.
“Get out of my way!” he yelled. “Can’t you see I’m filming a video You old fool!” Looking him up and down in surprise, the old lady didn’t argue over his disrespectful attitude and quietly walked towards another bench.
Jack set his camera up, pressed the record button and waved at his followers, ready to demonstrate exercises. Suddenly, he tripped on a loose stone, lost balance and fell down, his head striking the bench and bleeding heavily.
Crying in pain, Jack tried to get up, but he didn’t have the strength to rise. He collapsed on the ground, screaming desperately for help.
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。
