Do you ever get to the train station and realize you forgot to bring something to read Yes, we all have our phones, but many of us still like to go old school and read something printed.
Well, there's a kiosk(小亭)for that. In the San Francisco Bay Area, at least.
"You enter the fare gates(检票口)and you'll see a kiosk that is lit up and it tells you can get a one-minute, a three-minute, or a five-minute story," says Alicia Trost, the chief communications officer for the San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit - known as BART. "You choose which length you want and it gives you a receipt-like short story."
It's that simple. Riders have printed nearly 20,000 short stories and poems since the program was launched last March. Some are classic short stories, and some are new original works.
Trost also wants to introduce local writers to local riders. "We wanted to do something where we do a call to artists in the Bay Area to submit stories for a contest," Trost says. "And as of right now, we've received about 120 submissions. The winning stories would go into our kiosk and then you would be a published artist."
Ridership on transit(交通)systems across the country has been down the past half century, so could short stories save transit
Trost thinks so.
"At the end of the day all transit agencies right now are doing everything they can to improve the rider experience. So I absolutely think we will get more riders just because of short stories," she says.
And you'll never be without something to read.
4.Why did BART start the kiosk program
A.To promote the local culture. B.To discourage phone use.
C.To meet passengers' needs. D.To reduce its running costs.
5.How are the stories categorized in the kiosk
A.By popularity. B.By length.
C.By theme. D.By language.
6. What has Trost been doing recently
A.Organizing a story contest.
B.Doing a survey of customers.
C.Choosing a print publisher.
D.Conducting interviews with artists.
7.What is Trost's opinion about BART's future
A.It will close down. B.Its profits will decline.
C.It will expand nationwide. D.Its ridership will increase.
【答案】4.C
5.B
6.A
7.D
【知识点】推理判断题;细节理解题;说明文;社会现象类
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了旧金山湾区的一个快速交通系统(BART)在车站设立了小亭,提供一分钟、三分钟或五分钟长度的短篇故事或诗歌打印服务。自去年三月推出以来,乘客们已打印了近20,000篇短篇故事和诗歌,其中既有经典作品也有新创作。该项目旨在向乘客介绍当地作家,目前已收到约120篇投稿,获奖作品将加入小亭的供应。BART的首席通讯官阿莉西亚·特罗斯特认为,通过改善乘客体验,如提供短篇故事,可以吸引更多乘客使用公共交通工具。
【点评】考查阅读理解。本文涉及细节题和推断题两种常考题型,细节题要注意通过关键词从文中寻找答案;推断题需要对已有信息进行加工处理,推断出需要的信息。
4.推理判断题。根据第一段"Do you ever get to the train station and realize you forgot to bring something to read Yes, we all have our phones, but many of us still like to go old school and read something printed你是否有过这样的经历:到火车站时,你发现自己忘了带东西看 是的,我们都有手机,但我们中的许多人仍然喜欢走老路,阅读印刷的东西"和第二段中的"Well, there's a kiosk(小亭)for that嗯,有一个售货亭",可知BART启动自助亭计划是为了满足顾客需求,故选C。
5.细节理解题。根据第三段中的"you'll see a kiosk that is lit up and it tells you can get a one-minute, a three-minute, or a five-minute story你会看到一个亮着灯的报刊亭,它告诉你可以买一个一分钟、三分钟或五分钟的故事"和"You choose which length you want and it gives you a receipt-like short story你选择你想要的长度,它就会给你一个像收据一样的短篇故事 ",可知小亭中的故事是按照长度分类的,故选B。
6.细节理解题。根据第五段中的"We wanted to do something where we do a call to artists in the Bay Area to submit stories for a contest我们想做一些事情,我们打电话给海湾地区的艺术家,让他们为比赛提交故事",可知Trost最近在准备举办一场比赛,故选A。

(2024·新高考Ⅱ卷) 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
We all know fresh is best when it comes to food. However, most produce at the store went through weeks of travel and covered hundreds of miles before reaching the table. While farmer's markets are a solid choice to reduce the journey, Babylon Micro-Farm(BMF)shortens it even more.
BMF is an indoor garden system. It can be set up for a family. Additionally, it could serve a larger audience such as a hospital, restaurant or school. The innovative design requires little effort to achieve a reliable weekly supply of fresh greens.
Specifically, it's a farm that relies on new technology. By connecting through the Cloud, BMF is remotely monitored. Also, there is a convenient app that provides growing data in real time. Because the system is automated, it significantly reduces the amount of water needed to grow plants. Rather than watering rows of soil, the system provides just the right amount to each plant. After harvest, users simply replace the plants with a new pre-seeded pod(容器)to get the next growth cycle started.
Moreover, having a system in the same building where it's eaten means zero emissions(排放)from transporting plants from soil to salad. In addition, there's no need for pesticides and other chemicals that pollute traditional farms and the surrounding environment.
BMF employees live out sustainability in their everyday lives. About half of them walk or bike to work. Inside the office, they encourage recycling and waste reduction by limiting garbage cans and avoiding single-use plastic. "We are passionate about reducing waste, carbon and chemicals in our environment," said a BMF employee.
8.What can be learned about BMF from paragraph 1
A.It guarantees the variety of food.
B.It requires day-to-day care.
C.It cuts the farm-to-table distance.
D.It relies on farmer's markets.
9.What information does the convenient app offer
A.Real-time weather changes.
B.Current condition of the plants.
C.Chemical pollutants in the soil.
D.Availability of pre-seeded pods.
10.What can be concluded about BMF employees
A.They have a great passion for sports.
B.They are devoted to community service.
C.They are fond of sharing daily experiences.
D.They have a strong environmental awareness.
11.What does the text mainly talk about
A.BMF's major strengths. B.BMF's general management.
C.BMF's global influence. D.BMF's technical standards.
【答案】8.C
9.B

【点评】考查阅读理解。细节题、推断题、和主旨题都是常考题型。细节题需要根据关键词从文中找出答案;推断题需要考生根据关键词,结合语境推断出所需要的信息;主旨题则需要考生掌握全文结构和行文脉络,重点关注每段的中心句或首句,利用关键词获取主旨大意。
8.细节理解题。根据第一段中的"While farmer's markets are a solid choice to reduce the journey, Babylon Micro-Farm(BMF)shortens it even more虽然农贸市场是减少旅程的可靠选择,但巴比伦微型农场(BMF)甚至缩短了旅程",可知巴比伦微型农场(BMF)缩短了从农场到餐桌的距离,故选C。
9.细节理解题。根据第三段中的"Also, there is a convenient app that provides growing data in real time. Because the system is automated, it significantly reduces the amount of water needed to grow plants此外,还有一个方便的应用程序,可以实时提供增长数据。由于该系统是自动化的,它大大减少了种植植物所需的水量",可知这块方便的应用程序提供植物的目前状况,故选B。
10.推理判断题。根据最后一段中的"About half of them walk or bike to work. Inside the office, they encourage recycling and waste reduction by limiting garbage cans and avoiding single-use plastic大约一半的人步行或骑自行车上班。在办公室里,他们通过限制垃圾桶和避免使用一次性塑料来鼓励回收和减少废物"和"We are passionate about reducing waste, carbon and chemicals in our environment我们热衷于减少环境中的废物、碳和化学物质",可知巴比伦微型农场(BMF)的员工有着强烈的环保意识,故选D。

(2024·新高考Ⅱ卷) 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
Given the astonishing potential of AI to transform our lives, we all need to take action to deal with our AI-powered future, and this is where AI by Design: A Plan for Living with Artificial Intelligence comes in. This absorbing new book by Catriona Campbell is a practical roadmap addressing the challenges posed by the forthcoming AI revolution(变革).
In the wrong hands, such a book could prove as complicated to process as the computer code(代码)that powers AI but, thankfully, Campbell has more than two decades' professional experience translating the heady into the understandable. She writes from the practical angle of a business person rather than as an academic, making for a guide which is highly accessible and informative and which, by the close, will make you feel almost as smart as AI.
As we soon come to learn from AI by Design, AI is already super-smart and will become more capable, moving from the current generation of "narrow-AI" to Artificial General Intelligence. From there, Campbell says, will come Artificial Dominant Intelligence. This is why Campbell has set out to raise awareness of AI and its future now-several decades before these developments are expected to take place. She says it is essential that we keep control of artificial intelligence, or risk being sidelined and perhaps even worse.
Campbell's point is to wake up those responsible for AI-the technology companies and world leaders-so they are on the same page as all the experts currently developing it. She explains we are at a "tipping point" in history and must act now to prevent an extinction-level event for humanity. We need to consider how we want our future with Al to pan out. Such structured thinking, followed by global regulation, will enable us to achieve greatness rather than our downfall.
AI will affect us all, and if you only read one book on the subject, this is it.
12.What does the phrase "In the wrong hands" in paragraph 2 probably mean
A.If read by someone poorly educated.
B.If reviewed by someone ill-intentioned.
C.If written by someone less competent.
D.If translated by someone unacademic.
13.What is a feature of AI by Design according to the text
A.It is packed with complex codes.
B.It adopts a down-to-earth writing style.
C.It provides step-by-step instructions.
D.It is intended for AI professionals.
14.What does Campbell urge people to do regarding AI development
A.Observe existing regulations on it.
B.Reconsider expert opinions about it.
C.Make joint efforts to keep it under control.
D.Learn from prior experience to slow it down.
15. What is the author's purpose in writing the text
A.To recommend a book on AI.
B.To give a brief account of AI history.
C.To clarify the definition of AI.
D.To honor an outstanding AI expert.
【答案】12.D

【知识点】推理判断题;词义猜测题;细节理解题;说明文;学习教育类
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,文章介绍Catriona Campbell撰写的《AI by Design》,是关于如何应对AI革命挑战的实用指南。它强调了对AI控制的重要性,并呼吁现在采取行动,避免潜在的风险。该书建议全球监管和结构化思考,以实现AI带来的益处。
【点评】考查阅读理解。本文涉及细节题、推理判断题和词义猜测题两种常考题型,细节题要注意通过关键词从文中寻找答案;推断题需要考生根据关键词,结合语境推断出所需要的信息;词义猜测题需要对已有信息进行加工处理,利用上下文、表示转折、并列或因果的词、定语从句等信息推断出词的意思。
12.词义猜测题。根据划线词后的"such a book could prove as complicated to process as the computer code(代码)that powers AI but, thankfully, Campbell has more than two decades' professional experience translating the heady into the understandable这样一本书可能会像驱动人工智能的计算机代码一样复杂,但谢天谢地,坎贝尔有20多年的专业经验,可以将令人兴奋的内容转化为可理解的内容",结合选项,可知"In the wrong hands"应是与选项D"If translated by someone unacademic如果是由非学术人士翻译的"意思相近,故选D。
13.细节理解题。根据第二段中的"She writes from the practical angle of a business person rather than as an academic, making for a guide which is highly accessible and informative and which, by the close, will make you feel almost as smart as AI她从一个商业人士(而非学者)的实际角度出发,撰写了一本非常通俗易懂、内容丰富的指南,读完后会让你觉得自己几乎和人工智能一样聪明",可知AI by Design采用了一种接地气的写作风格,故选B。
14.细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句话"She says it is essential that we keep control of artificial intelligence, or risk being sidelined and perhaps even worse她说,我们必须保持对人工智能的控制,否则就有可能被边缘化,甚至更糟"和第四段中的"Campbell's point is to wake up those responsible for AI-the technology companies and world leaders-so they are on the same page as all the experts currently developing it坎贝尔的观点是唤醒那些对人工智能负责的人——科技公司和世界领导人——这样他们就能与目前所有开发人工智能的专家站在同一条战线上",可知关于人工智能的发展,坎贝尔敦促人们共同努力使AI处于控制中,故选C。
15.推理判断题。根据第一段"Given the astonishing potential of AI to transform our lives, we all need to take action to deal with our AI-powered future, and this is where AI by Design: A Plan for Living withArtificial Intelligence comes in.

Overtourism Is For Real: How Can You Help
Travel promotes understanding, expands our minds, makes us better people, and boosts local economies and communities, but the rapid growth of travel has led to overtourism in certain regions and destinations.  16.  Certainly not. The loss of what travel offers would be unacceptable in today's world. Here are some tips on making wise decisions to minimize pressure on the places we visit and improve our experience.
●Choose mindfully. Overvisited destinations are that way for a reason: they're special. With so many online posts featuring the same places, it's easy to feel like you're missing out. Go somewhere only when the landscape, culture or food deeply draws you.  17.  
●Get creative. The best way to ease pressure on over-touristed destinations is to go somewhere else. Though overtourism is described as a problem affecting the entire world, it's actually concentrated to a small number of extremely popular spots. That means you have tons of less-visited options to choose from.  18.  Why not try a regional alternative or check out a popular destination's lesser-known sights
●  19.  Minimize impact and maximize experience by skipping major holidays or rush hour. You'll compete with fewer tourists, save money, experience a different side of a popular place, and boost the economy when tourism is traditionally slower.
Visiting a place that others call home is a privilege(荣幸). Do your part to preserve what makes a destination special in the first place.  20.  You may be amazed how much closer you'll feel to the people there.
A. Visit during off-peak times.
B. So, should we stop traveling
C. Travel for you and no one else.
D. Can overtourism be avoided then
E. You can still find relatively undiscovered places.
F. You'll find yourself virtually alone, or close to it.
G. Consider giving back to the communities you're visiting.
【答案】16.B;17.C;18.E;19.A;20.G
【知识点】七选五;旅游观光类;议论文
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文, 本文讨论了过度旅游(overtourism)的现实问题,并提出了几个负责任旅行的建议。 建议游客明智选择目的地,避开高峰时段,探索未过度开发地区,以减轻对目的地的压力,提升旅游体验。
A. 在非高峰时间访问。
B. 那么,我们应该停止旅行吗?
C. 旅行是为了你自己,不是为了别人。
D. 那么过度旅游可以避免吗?
E. 你仍然可以找到相对未被发现的地方。
F. 你会发现自己实际上是孤独的,或者接近孤独。
G. 考虑回馈你所访问的社区。
【点评】七选五的答案选项较少,并且给出的都是句子,因此,我们可以通过句子的完整性或者句子后面的标点符合来判断该句在文章中的位置。另外,通过阅读选项,有可能找出其他选项表达完全同意思的句子,这样的话就可以直接将该选项排除。
16.根据空格后的"Certainly not. The loss of what travel offers would be unacceptable in today's world当然不是。在当今世界,失去旅游所提供的东西是不可接受的",可知空格处应是提到了停止旅行,这与选项B"So, should we stop traveling 那么,我们应该停止旅行吗"意思相符,故选B。
17.空格前的"Go somewhere only when the landscape, culture or food deeply draws you只有当一个地方的风景、文化或食物深深吸引着你的时候才去"与选项C" Travel for you and no one else旅行是为了你自己,不是为了别人 "意思连贯,故选C。
18.空格前句"That means you have tons of less-visited options to choose from这意味着你有很多不太受欢迎的选择"中的"less-visited options不太受欢迎的选择"与选项E"You can still find relatively undiscovered places你仍然可以找到相对未被发现的地方"中的"relatively undiscovered places相对未被发现的地方"构成词义复现,故选E。
19.段落小标题位置。标题下段落第一句话"Minimize impact and maximize experience by skipping major holidays or rush hour尽量减少影响,最大化体验,避开主要节假日或高峰时间"中的"by skipping major holidays or rush hour避开主要节假日或高峰时间"与选项A" Visit during off-peak times在非高峰时间访问"中的off-peak times意思相同,故选A。
20.空格前句"Do your part to preserve what makes a destination special in the first place你要尽自己的一份力量来保护这个地方的特色"中的"preserve what makes a destination special要保护这个地方的特色"与选项G"Consider giving back to the communities you're visiting考虑回馈你所访问的社区"中的"giving back to the communities回馈社区"意思相同,且上下文意思连贯,故选G。

【知识点】说明文;社会文化类
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了纪念"亚洲的莎士比亚"汤显祖的文化元素增强了莎士比亚故乡斯特拉特福德的国际色彩。尽管汤显祖与莎士比亚未曾见面,但他们的作品有共通主题。为纪念他们,在莎士比亚故居附近竖立了雕像和亭子。这些元素提高了斯特拉特福德的国际知名度,并吸引了游客对两位伟大作家之间联系的关注。
【点评】考查语法填空。本题考点涉及定语从句、名词、谓语动词、介词、非谓语动词、连词等知识点的考查。要求考生在理解细节信息的基础上,进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系,并结合相关语法知识,进行分析推理,从而写出正确的单词形式。
36.句意:有"亚洲莎士比亚"之称的汤显祖的中国文化元素,为莎士比亚的故乡——埃文河畔斯特拉特福镇增添了一抹国际化色彩。分析句子结构,可知此处是非限制性定语从句;定语从句中缺少主语,应使用关系代词,先行词Tang Xianzu(汤显祖)指人,故填who。
37.句意:莎士比亚出生地信托基金会的研究主管保罗·埃德蒙森说,尽管他们可能从未见过面,但他们的作品中有一些共同的主题。there be句型中,be动词的单复数与主语保持一致;句中系动词用的是are,所以主语应使用 复数形式,故填themes。
38.句意:汤所写的一些事情也是莎士比亚所关心的。分析句子结构,可知空格处缺少主句的谓语动词;根据定语从句中的谓语动词was writing,可知句子描述的是发生在过去的事情,依据时态一直原则,所以空格处应使用一般过去时态;主句主语Some of the things是复数,所以谓语动词应使用be动词一般过去时态的复数形式,故填were。
39.句意:我碰巧知道汤的话剧《牡丹亭》在某些方面与《罗密欧与朱丽叶》相似。be similar to 是固定短语,意"与……相似",句中意"与《罗密欧与朱丽叶》相似",故填to。
40.句意:两年后,一座以《牡丹亭》为灵感的六米高的亭子在第一花园建成,距离莎士比亚的出生地只有十分钟的步行路程。分析句子结构,可知此处是非谓语动词短语" 5 (inspire)by The Peony Pavilion"作状语,与句子主语"a six-meter-tall pavilion一座六米高的亭子"构成被动关系,所以应使用过去分词,故填inspired。
41.句意:两年后,一座以《牡丹亭》为灵感的六米高的亭子在第一花园建成,距离莎士比亚的出生地只有十分钟的步行路程。分析句子结构,可知此处是句子的谓语动词;根据句意,句子描述发生在过去的事情,应使用一般过去时态;谓语动词build与主语 a six-meter-tall pavilion构成被动关系,应使用被动语态。故填was built。
42.句意:埃德蒙森说,这些文化元素提高了斯特拉特福德的国际知名度。他还说,当游客走过出生地花园时,常常会惊讶地发现这两位伟大作家之间的联系。根据常见结构"形容词性物主代词+形容词+名词",可知空格处应使用名词;visible的名词visibility(意"可见性")是不可数名词,故填visibility。
43.句意:埃德蒙森说,这些文化元素提高了斯特拉特福德的国际知名度。他还说,当游客走过出生地花园时,常常会惊讶地发现这两位伟大作家之间的联系。be amazed to do sth是固定短语,意"惊讶的做某事",故填to find。
44.句意:埃德蒙森回忆起在上海观看莎士比亚戏剧《理查德Ⅲ》的中国歌剧版本,以及几年前来到斯特拉特福德表演《牡丹亭》部分内容的中国演员,他说:"听到中文,看到唐的戏剧是如何被表演的,这是非常令人兴奋的。"非谓语动词短语" 9 (recall)watching a Chinese opera version of Shakespeare's play RichardⅢ in Shanghai "作状语,与句子主语Edmondson构成主动关系,即"Edmondson回忆起在上海观看莎士比亚戏剧《理查德Ⅲ》的中国歌剧版本",应使用V-ing形式,故填Recalling。
45.句意:埃德蒙森回忆起在上海观看莎士比亚戏剧《理查德Ⅲ》的中国歌剧版本,以及几年前来到斯特拉特福德表演《牡丹亭》部分内容的中国演员,他说:"听到中文,看到唐的戏剧是如何被表演的,这是非常令人兴奋的。"根据句意,可知空格后的动词see与空格前的hear是并列关系,共同与之前的to构成动词不定式,在句中作真实主语,故填and。

【答案】Dear Chris,
I'm writing to share an extraordinary experience from last Friday when our class had an art lesson in the park. You cannot imagine how meaningful and interesting it was!
We were tasked to draw or paint something that impressed us most. Inspired by the fantastic scenery, I decided to create a watercolor painting of the small bridge over the park's pond, surrounded by blooming flowers.
The entire experience was incredibly refreshing. Being surrounded by nature not only sparked my creativity but also offered a much-needed break from the usual hustle and bustle of school life. I felt a deep sense of peace as I painted.
In a word, it was not just an art class; it was a moment of connection with nature that I truly cherished. How have your classes been lately I would love to hear about them. Take care and write back soon
Best regards,
Li Hua

I met Gunter on a cold, wet and unforgettable evening in September. I had planned to fly to Vienna and take a bus to Prague for a conference. Due to a big storm, my flight had been delayed by an hour and a half. I touched down in Vienna just30 minutes before the departure of the last bus to Prague. The moment I got off the plane, I ran like crazy through the airport building and jumped into the first taxi on the rank without a second thought.
That was when I met Gunter. I told him where I was going, but he said he hadn't heard of the bus station. I thought my pronunciation was the problem, so I explained again more slowly, but he still looked confused. When I was about to give up, Gunter fished out his little phone and rang up a friend. After a heated discussion that lasted for what seemed like a century, Gunter put his phone down and started the car
Finally, with just two minutes to spare we rolled into the bus station. Thankfully, there was along queue(队列)still waiting to board the bus. Gunter parked the taxi behind the bus, tuned around, and looked at me with a big smile on his face. "We made it, "he said.
Just then I realised that I had zero cash in my wallet. I flashed him an apologetic smile as I pulled out my Portuguese bankcard. He tried it several times, but the card machine just did not play along. A feeling of helplessness washed over me as I saw the bus queue thinning out. At this moment, Gunter pointed towards the waiting hall of the bus station. There, at the entrance, was a cash machine. I jumped out of the car, made a mad run for the machine, and popped my card in, only to read the message:"Out of order. Sorry. "

I ran back to Gunter and told him the bad news.
Four days later, when I was back in Vienna, I called Gunter as promised.
【答案】Para 1
I ran back to Gunter and told him the bad news. He looked at me in disbelief, asking me what to do. Flashing him another apologetic smile, I begged him for a delayed payment. "If I miss this last bus to Prague, I'll be late for the conference which is so important that I can't afford to miss it" I explained. "May I have your phone number I will call you and return the money I owe you. I promise I will keep my word or you keep my watch!" I added, handing him my watch as well as my business card. Gunter accepted my business card but rejected my watch. He wrote down his phone number and gave it to me. "Just keep your promise, Sir." A feeling of gratitude washed over me as I heard his words. Giving him a firm handshake, I jumped out of the car, made a mad run for the bus, and jumped onto it just before its departure.
Para 2
Four days later, when I was back in Vienna, I called Gunter as promised, He picked me up at the bus station where he had dropped me off four days before. Beaming a warm smile at him, I gave him a big hug the moment I saw him. We chatted happily on the way to the airport. I told him that thanks to his generosity and timely help, everything had gone smoothly. When he stopped his taxi outside the airport, I paid him for the "double car ride", back and forth from the airport to the bus station, together with a generous tip that he turned down. I had no choice but to give him an attractive souvenir I had bought at Prague, which he accepted with delight. In this way, we became good friends and kept in touch with each other regularly. I felt blessed to have such a warm-hearted friend like Gunter who has a heart of gold.
【知识点】文字式记叙文;读后续写
【解析】【分析】本篇书面表达是读后续写。通过阅读可知,文章主要讲述了作者赶着去坐大巴参加一个会议,花了很长时间打车去大巴地点,终于抵达后发现钱包里没现金,无法支付给出租车司机。作者去提款机取钱,但是机器出故障了,于是就跟司机约定过几天再给他。最终,作者如期赴约还钱。段落续写:①由第一段首句内容"我跑回到Gunter那里,告诉了他这个坏消息"可知,第一段描写作者无法正常给Gunter支付车费,并与之达成后期支付车费的口头协议;②由第二段首句内容"四天后,我回到Vienna,如约给Gunter打了电话"可知,第二段可描写作者信守承诺,给Gunter支付了车费并表达了自己的感激之情,并与 Gunter 成为了好朋友。写作时注意准确运用时态,上下文意思连贯,符合逻辑关系,尽量使用自己熟悉的单词句式,同时也要注意使用高级词汇和高级句型是文章显得更有档次。

Do you ever get to the train station and realize you forgot to bring something to read Yes, we all have our phones, but many of us still like to go old school and read something printed.
Well, there's a kiosk(小亭)for that. In the San Francisco Bay Area, at least.
"You enter the fare gates(检票口)and you'll see a kiosk that is lit up and it tells you can get a one-minute, a three-minute, or a five-minute story," says Alicia Trost, the chief communications officer for the San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit - known as BART. "You choose which length you want and it gives you a receipt-like short story."
It's that simple. Riders have printed nearly 20,000 short stories and poems since the program was launched last March. Some are classic short stories, and some are new original works.
Trost also wants to introduce local writers to local riders. "We wanted to do something where we do a call to artists in the Bay Area to submit stories for a contest," Trost says. "And as of right now, we've received about 120 submissions. The winning stories would go into our kiosk and then you would be a published artist."
Ridership on transit(交通)systems across the country has been down the past half century, so could short stories save transit
Trost thinks so.
"At the end of the day all transit agencies right now are doing everything they can to improve the rider experience. So I absolutely think we will get more riders just because of short stories," she says.
And you'll never be without something to read.
4.Why did BART start the kiosk program
A.To promote the local culture. B.To discourage phone use.
C.To meet passengers' needs. D.To reduce its running costs.
5.How are the stories categorized in the kiosk
A.By popularity. B.By length.
C.By theme. D.By language.
6. What has Trost been doing recently
A.Organizing a story contest.
B.Doing a survey of customers.
C.Choosing a print publisher.
D.Conducting interviews with artists.
7.What is Trost's opinion about BART's future
A.It will close down. B.Its profits will decline.
C.It will expand nationwide. D.Its ridership will increase.

We all know fresh is best when it comes to food. However, most produce at the store went through weeks of travel and covered hundreds of miles before reaching the table. While farmer's markets are a solid choice to reduce the journey, Babylon Micro-Farm(BMF)shortens it even more.
BMF is an indoor garden system. It can be set up for a family. Additionally, it could serve a larger audience such as a hospital, restaurant or school. The innovative design requires little effort to achieve a reliable weekly supply of fresh greens.
Specifically, it's a farm that relies on new technology. By connecting through the Cloud, BMF is remotely monitored. Also, there is a convenient app that provides growing data in real time. Because the system is automated, it significantly reduces the amount of water needed to grow plants. Rather than watering rows of soil, the system provides just the right amount to each plant. After harvest, users simply replace the plants with a new pre-seeded pod(容器)to get the next growth cycle started.
Moreover, having a system in the same building where it's eaten means zero emissions(排放)from transporting plants from soil to salad. In addition, there's no need for pesticides and other chemicals that pollute traditional farms and the surrounding environment.
BMF employees live out sustainability in their everyday lives. About half of them walk or bike to work. Inside the office, they encourage recycling and waste reduction by limiting garbage cans and avoiding single-use plastic. "We are passionate about reducing waste, carbon and chemicals in our environment," said a BMF employee.
8.What can be learned about BMF from paragraph 1
A.It guarantees the variety of food.
B.It requires day-to-day care.
C.It cuts the farm-to-table distance.
D.It relies on farmer's markets.
9.What information does the convenient app offer
A.Real-time weather changes.
B.Current condition of the plants.
C.Chemical pollutants in the soil.
D.Availability of pre-seeded pods.
10.What can be concluded about BMF employees
A.They have a great passion for sports.
B.They are devoted to community service.
C.They are fond of sharing daily experiences.
D.They have a strong environmental awareness.
11.What does the text mainly talk about
A.BMF's major strengths. B.BMF's general management.
C.BMF's global influence. D.BMF's technical standards.

Given the astonishing potential of AI to transform our lives, we all need to take action to deal with our AI-powered future, and this is where AI by Design: A Plan for Living with Artificial Intelligence comes in. This absorbing new book by Catriona Campbell is a practical roadmap addressing the challenges posed by the forthcoming AI revolution(变革).
In the wrong hands, such a book could prove as complicated to process as the computer code(代码)that powers AI but, thankfully, Campbell has more than two decades' professional experience translating the heady into the understandable. She writes from the practical angle of a business person rather than as an academic, making for a guide which is highly accessible and informative and which, by the close, will make you feel almost as smart as AI.
As we soon come to learn from AI by Design, AI is already super-smart and will become more capable, moving from the current generation of "narrow-AI" to Artificial General Intelligence. From there, Campbell says, will come Artificial Dominant Intelligence. This is why Campbell has set out to raise awareness of AI and its future now-several decades before these developments are expected to take place. She says it is essential that we keep control of artificial intelligence, or risk being sidelined and perhaps even worse.
Campbell's point is to wake up those responsible for AI-the technology companies and world leaders-so they are on the same page as all the experts currently developing it. She explains we are at a "tipping point" in history and must act now to prevent an extinction-level event for humanity. We need to consider how we want our future with Al to pan out. Such structured thinking, followed by global regulation, will enable us to achieve greatness rather than our downfall.
AI will affect us all, and if you only read one book on the subject, this is it.
12.What does the phrase "In the wrong hands" in paragraph 2 probably mean
A.If read by someone poorly educated.
B.If reviewed by someone ill-intentioned.
C.If written by someone less competent.
D.If translated by someone unacademic.
13.What is a feature of AI by Design according to the text
A.It is packed with complex codes.
B.It adopts a down-to-earth writing style.
C.It provides step-by-step instructions.
D.It is intended for AI professionals.
14.What does Campbell urge people to do regarding AI development
A.Observe existing regulations on it.
B.Reconsider expert opinions about it.

Overtourism Is For Real: How Can You Help
Travel promotes understanding, expands our minds, makes us better people, and boosts local economies and communities, but the rapid growth of travel has led to overtourism in certain regions and destinations.  16.  Certainly not. The loss of what travel offers would be unacceptable in today's world. Here are some tips on making wise decisions to minimize pressure on the places we visit and improve our experience.
●Choose mindfully. Overvisited destinations are that way for a reason: they're special. With so many online posts featuring the same places, it's easy to feel like you're missing out. Go somewhere only when the landscape, culture or food deeply draws you.  17.  
●Get creative. The best way to ease pressure on over-touristed destinations is to go somewhere else. Though overtourism is described as a problem affecting the entire world, it's actually concentrated to a small number of extremely popular spots. That means you have tons of less-visited options to choose from.  18.  Why not try a regional alternative or check out a popular destination's lesser-known sights
●  19.  Minimize impact and maximize experience by skipping major holidays or rush hour. You'll compete with fewer tourists, save money, experience a different side of a popular place, and boost the economy when tourism is traditionally slower.
Visiting a place that others call home is a privilege(荣幸). Do your part to preserve what makes a destination special in the first place.  20.  You may be amazed how much closer you'll feel to the people there.
A. Visit during off-peak times.
B. So, should we stop traveling
C. Travel for you and no one else.
D. Can overtourism be avoided then
E. You can still find relatively undiscovered places.
F. You'll find yourself virtually alone, or close to it.
G. Consider giving back to the communities you're visiting.

I met Gunter on a cold, wet and unforgettable evening in September. I had planned to fly to Vienna and take a bus to Prague for a conference. Due to a big storm, my flight had been delayed by an hour and a half. I touched down in Vienna just30 minutes before the departure of the last bus to Prague. The moment I got off the plane, I ran like crazy through the airport building and jumped into the first taxi on the rank without a second thought.
That was when I met Gunter. I told him where I was going, but he said he hadn't heard of the bus station. I thought my pronunciation was the problem, so I explained again more slowly, but he still looked confused. When I was about to give up, Gunter fished out his little phone and rang up a friend. After a heated discussion that lasted for what seemed like a century, Gunter put his phone down and started the car
Finally, with just two minutes to spare we rolled into the bus station. Thankfully, there was along queue(队列)still waiting to board the bus. Gunter parked the taxi behind the bus, tuned around, and looked at me with a big smile on his face. "We made it, "he said.
Just then I realised that I had zero cash in my wallet. I flashed him an apologetic smile as I pulled out my Portuguese bankcard. He tried it several times, but the card machine just did not play along. A feeling of helplessness washed over me as I saw the bus queue thinning out. At this moment, Gunter pointed towards the waiting hall of the bus station. There, at the entrance, was a cash machine. I jumped out of the car, made a mad run for the machine, and popped my card in, only to read the message:"Out of order. Sorry. "

【知识点】说明文;社会文化类
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了纪念"亚洲的莎士比亚"汤显祖的文化元素增强了莎士比亚故乡斯特拉特福德的国际色彩。尽管汤显祖与莎士比亚未曾见面,但他们的作品有共通主题。为纪念他们,在莎士比亚故居附近竖立了雕像和亭子。这些元素提高了斯特拉特福德的国际知名度,并吸引了游客对两位伟大作家之间联系的关注。
【点评】考查语法填空。本题考点涉及定语从句、名词、谓语动词、介词、非谓语动词、连词等知识点的考查。要求考生在理解细节信息的基础上,进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系,并结合相关语法知识,进行分析推理,从而写出正确的单词形式。
36.句意:有"亚洲莎士比亚"之称的汤显祖的中国文化元素,为莎士比亚的故乡——埃文河畔斯特拉特福镇增添了一抹国际化色彩。分析句子结构,可知此处是非限制性定语从句;定语从句中缺少主语,应使用关系代词,先行词Tang Xianzu(汤显祖)指人,故填who。
37.句意:莎士比亚出生地信托基金会的研究主管保罗·埃德蒙森说,尽管他们可能从未见过面,但他们的作品中有一些共同的主题。there be句型中,be动词的单复数与主语保持一致;句中系动词用的是are,所以主语应使用 复数形式,故填themes。
38.句意:汤所写的一些事情也是莎士比亚所关心的。分析句子结构,可知空格处缺少主句的谓语动词;根据定语从句中的谓语动词was writing,可知句子描述的是发生在过去的事情,依据时态一直原则,所以空格处应使用一般过去时态;主句主语Some of the things是复数,所以谓语动词应使用be动词一般过去时态的复数形式,故填were。
39.句意:我碰巧知道汤的话剧《牡丹亭》在某些方面与《罗密欧与朱丽叶》相似。be similar to 是固定短语,意"与……相似",句中意"与《罗密欧与朱丽叶》相似",故填to。
40.句意:两年后,一座以《牡丹亭》为灵感的六米高的亭子在第一花园建成,距离莎士比亚的出生地只有十分钟的步行路程。分析句子结构,可知此处是非谓语动词短语" 5 (inspire)by The Peony Pavilion"作状语,与句子主语"a six-meter-tall pavilion一座六米高的亭子"构成被动关系,所以应使用过去分词,故填inspired。
41.句意:两年后,一座以《牡丹亭》为灵感的六米高的亭子在第一花园建成,距离莎士比亚的出生地只有十分钟的步行路程。分析句子结构,可知此处是句子的谓语动词;根据句意,句子描述发生在过去的事情,应使用一般过去时态;谓语动词build与主语 a six-meter-tall pavilion构成被动关系,应使用被动语态。故填was built。
42.句意:埃德蒙森说,这些文化元素提高了斯特拉特福德的国际知名度。他还说,当游客走过出生地花园时,常常会惊讶地发现这两位伟大作家之间的联系。根据常见结构"形容词性物主代词+形容词+名词",可知空格处应使用名词;visible的名词visibility(意"可见性")是不可数名词,故填visibility。
43.句意:埃德蒙森说,这些文化元素提高了斯特拉特福德的国际知名度。他还说,当游客走过出生地花园时,常常会惊讶地发现这两位伟大作家之间的联系。be amazed to do sth是固定短语,意"惊讶的做某事",故填to find。
44.句意:埃德蒙森回忆起在上海观看莎士比亚戏剧《理查德Ⅲ》的中国歌剧版本,以及几年前来到斯特拉特福德表演《牡丹亭》部分内容的中国演员,他说:"听到中文,看到唐的戏剧是如何被表演的,这是非常令人兴奋的。"非谓语动词短语" 9 (recall)watching a Chinese opera version of Shakespeare's play RichardⅢ in Shanghai "作状语,与句子主语Edmondson构成主动关系,即"Edmondson回忆起在上海观看莎士比亚戏剧《理查德Ⅲ》的中国歌剧版本",应使用V-ing形式,故填Recalling。
45.句意:埃德蒙森回忆起在上海观看莎士比亚戏剧《理查德Ⅲ》的中国歌剧版本,以及几年前来到斯特拉特福德表演《牡丹亭》部分内容的中国演员,他说:"听到中文,看到唐的戏剧是如何被表演的,这是非常令人兴奋的。"根据句意,可知空格后的动词see与空格前的hear是并列关系,共同与之前的to构成动词不定式,在句中作真实主语,故填and。
46.【答案】Dear Chris,
I'm writing to share an extraordinary experience from last Friday when our class had an art lesson in the park. You cannot imagine how meaningful and interesting it was!
We were tasked to draw or paint something that impressed us most. Inspired by the fantastic scenery, I decided to create a watercolor painting of the small bridge over the park's pond, surrounded by blooming flowers.
The entire experience was incredibly refreshing. Being surrounded by nature not only sparked my creativity but also offered a much-needed break from the usual hustle and bustle of school life. I felt a deep sense of peace as I painted.
In a word, it was not just an art class; it was a moment of connection with nature that I truly cherished. How have your classes been lately I would love to hear about them. Take care and write back soon
Best regards,
Li Hua

47.【答案】Para 1
I ran back to Gunter and told him the bad news. He looked at me in disbelief, asking me what to do. Flashing him another apologetic smile, I begged him for a delayed payment. "If I miss this last bus to Prague, I'll be late for the conference which is so important that I can't afford to miss it" I explained. "May I have your phone number I will call you and return the money I owe you. I promise I will keep my word or you keep my watch!" I added, handing him my watch as well as my business card. Gunter accepted my business card but rejected my watch. He wrote down his phone number and gave it to me. "Just keep your promise, Sir." A feeling of gratitude washed over me as I heard his words. Giving him a firm handshake, I jumped out of the car, made a mad run for the bus, and jumped onto it just before its departure.
Para 2
Four days later, when I was back in Vienna, I called Gunter as promised, He picked me up at the bus station where he had dropped me off four days before. Beaming a warm smile at him, I gave him a big hug the moment I saw him. We chatted happily on the way to the airport. I told him that thanks to his generosity and timely help, everything had gone smoothly. When he stopped his taxi outside the airport, I paid him for the "double car ride", back and forth from the airport to the bus station, together with a generous tip that he turned down. I had no choice but to give him an attractive souvenir I had bought at Prague, which he accepted with delight. In this way, we became good friends and kept in touch with each other regularly. I felt blessed to have such a warm-hearted friend like Gunter who has a heart of gold.
【知识点】文字式记叙文;读后续写
