Food festivals are a common occurrence in the UK and take place in all sorts of places and at all sorts of times. Whatever your taste, there’s a food festival to match it — no matter how special.
The Meatopia
This three-day, London-based festival takes place at the end of August or in early September and is a meat lover’s paradise. In addition to a range of legally sourced meat products, from juicy burgers to tender steaks, attendees can listen to live music, watch butchery demonstrations, and attend informal meat-based workshops.
The National Honey Show
If you have a sweet tooth, then it could be that the National Honey Show, which started in 1923, is the place for you. This three-day event attracts many local participants who showcase their sweet golden honey, some of which is sold globally.
The Orange Sauce Festival
Have you heard about a festival that is devoted only to orange sauce Held in Cumbria, this sweet, fragrant festival has been running for many years. What attracts people most is a competition to find the best homemade orange sauce. There are thousands of participants from over 30 different countries across the globe, bringing their local snacks to share here.
The Ginger（姜） and Spice Festival
If you’d prefer something with a little more kick, then you could attend the Ginger and Spice Festival held in Market Drayton. Unlike other food festivals, it celebrates its town’s historic connection to Robert Clive, who returned from India with ginger. Because of this, people here specialize in baking gingerbread, and sell a range of traditional spices from mild ones to hot ones.

In a breathtaking incident in Berlin, a young man narrowly escaped a life-threatening situation where he became trapped beneath a bus.
The 16-year-old found himself unable to move beneath a tyre（轮胎） of the bus when he fell down during an attempt to catch the departing vehicle at a local stop on a Monday afternoon. The quick response of the bus driver, who immediately stopped the vehicle, coupled with the assistance of roughly 40 people, including both passengers and bystanders, led to a remarkable achievement. Together, they managed to lift the right side of the bus sufficiently to free the young man.
Frank Kurze, one of the courageous volunteers who participated in the rescue, recalled the messy scene, stating, “I saw the men trying to lift the bus, and it was clear to me that I also had to help lift the bus and try to pull the young man from underneath.”
Nearby medical professionals from a healthcare center in the Spandau neighborhood of Berlin instantly arrived at the scene to provide vital first aid. Michelle Rueckborn, one of the nurses on duty, shared their response, saying, “We were at work when we heard screams, and our coworker looked out of the window and saw what had happened, and said ‘Grab the doctor’s kit and run.’”
Sandra Grunwald, another nurse present at the scene, added, “He was responsive but understandably confused, unsure of what was unfolding around him.” Despite the frightening circumstances, the young man unbelievably survived with only minor injuries, thanks to the collective effort of around 40 individuals who came together to perform a heroic rescue.
The Berlin police department praised the collective efforts of those involved in the rescue as “heroes” and expressed their gratitude on social media, stating, “Thank you, Spandau. Thank you, Berlin.”
24. What was the accident at the bus stop
A. A teenager got caught under a bus. B. The tyre of a bus suddenly blew out.
C. A young passenger fell from his seat. D. The driver found the bus uncontrollable.
25. What did Frank Kurze do at the rescue scene
A. He recorded the whole event. B. He stepped forward bravely.
C. He turned to medical staff. D. He called more volunteers in.
26. Which of the following best describes the medical professionals
A. Tolerant. B. Creative. C. Patient. D. Decisive.
27. What message does the text try to convey
A. One good turn deserves another. B. Kindness brings mental rewards.
C. Many hands make light work. D. Opportunity is for the prepared.
C
Theo works days, nights, and weekends in the tulip (郁金香) fields in the Netherlands and never complains about tired muscles. How is this possible Theo, named after a retired farmer, is a high-tech robot in the battle to root out disease from the fields.
The robot rolls along rows of yellow and red tulips, checking each plant and, when necessary, killing diseased bulbs (鳞茎) to prevent the spread of the tulip-breaking virus (病毒). The virus weakens the bulb, leaving them unable to flower. The dead bulbs are removed from healthy ones in a sorting center after they have been harvested. There are 45 robots like Theo working in the tulip fields of the Netherlands. Their job becomes important as the winter turns to spring and peak season nears, when people come from around the world to admire the colorful flowers.
In the past, this work was carried out by knowledgeable farmers. Allan Visser is a third-generation tulip farmer who is using the robot. “You could buy a very nice sports car for the price of the robot,” Visser said. The robot costs 185,000 euros. “It’s a lot slower than a sports car, rolling on caterpillar tracks through fields,” he added. “But I choose the robot because a sports car doesn’t see the sick tulips. Now there are fewer and fewer people who can really do that.”
The robots have been trained to detect sick plants. They have cameras and take thousands of photos of the tulips. Their AI model examines the photos, hunting out signs on sick plants, and decides which ones need to be killed. The engineer explains the robots use GPS to be sure they are destroying the correct tulips. The heart of the machine is the knowledge put into the AI model, which comes from experienced tulip farmers like Theo van der Voort, who gave his name to the robot.
Van der Voort retired after 52 years of looking for sick flowers in his fields. “It’s fantastic,” he said. “It sees just as much as I see.”
28. What does the robot do
A. Plant new tulips. B. Clear troubled bulbs.
C. Kill deadly virus. D. Harvest grown flowers.
29. What can we infer from Visser’s words
A. He dreams of a sports car. B. Tulip fields are low in production.
C. The robot is worth the cost. D. Farmers lack technical knowledge.
30. What is the key to making the robots work effectively
A. GPS systems. B. High-tech cameras.
C. Daily training. D. Human knowledge.
31. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. Theo’s Watch: An Advance in Tulip Farming
B. Al Robots: A Replacement for Aging Farmers
C. Tulip Seasons: An Attraction of the Netherlands
D. Visser’s Practice: A Tradition in Tulip Businesses
D
Parents of teenagers often view their children’s friends with distrust, worrying that their children will be pushed by their peers (同龄人) into doing something foolish or even dangerous. Their worries hold water. In a previous study, psychologist Laurence Steinberg found that a teenage driver with a same-age passenger in the car is at higher risk of traffic accidents than one driving alone or with an adult.
In the following years, Steinberg examined why teens were more likely to take risks in the company of other teenagers. In a later study, by scanning (扫描) the brains of 40 teens and adults, Steinberg found the brains of teenagers, but not adults, showed greater activity in two regions associated with rewards when they were being observed by same-age peers. The reward systems of the brain are activated whenever people experience something rewarding, like eating a nice-tasting food, which make them feel satisfied. In this case, rewards are greater for teens, which motivates them to seek higher-risk experiences.
But Steinberg thought peer pressure might also have its positive side. In the latest study Steinberg’s team used a card game to research how peers affect the way young people gather and apply information. It involved 101 teenage boys who played either alone or with three peers. They chose cards from four decks (牌堆): two decks had “good” cards, and two “bad” ones. Players with peers were more willing to take risks, trying to figure out which decks could help them to win. The results showed that teens playing with their peers engage in more exploratory behavior, learn faster and achieve better performance on the task than those playing alone.
Now some experts are proposing that we should take advantage of the teens’ keen sensitivity (敏感) to the presence of friends to improve education. “Risk taking in an educational context is a vital skill that enables progress and creativity,” wrote Sarah-Jayne Blakemore, a professor at University College London.
32. What do the underlined words “hold water” in paragraph 1 mean
A. Make sense. B. Face doubts.
C. Bring relief. D. Start debates.
33. What is the reason behind teens’ dangerous behavior
A. Inability to tell right from wrong.
B. A sense of satisfaction.
C. Eagerness to follow their friends.
D. Lack of social experience.
34. How does risk-taking affect teens in the latest study
A. It starts fights between them.
B. It inspires them to question.
C. It weakens their independence.
D. It helps them to learn better.
35. What would Blakemore suggest teachers do in the classroom
A. Conduct group discussion.
B. Improve time management.
C. Encourage personal opinions.
D. Develop decision-making skills.

My name is Bronson Layton. I am 23 years old. I am a college student, and I have a story that I feel should be shared with the world.
I come from a family that had never had a single record of ancestry with autism (自闭症), until the day I was born. When I was two years old, my parents were still getting used to the lifestyle of raising a normal kid, but what they had noticed was what they considered “out of the ordinary” behavior. Whatever toys I played with, I placed them in a straight line. When I was not satisfied, I got angry easily.
Soon after my parents noticed these signs, they took me to a child expert, who eventually informed them that I was diagnosed (诊断) with a type of autism, a disorder that delays the nervous growth of a child's brain.
My diagnosis was in 1999, a time when autism was still not commonly understood and was still
being observed. At first, my parents were shocked at the news from an expert that I was going to grow up blind, but they(and I) were not prepared for how the following events would completely change our lives forever.
As I got older, I began to change from keeping myself alone to getting with other kids once Ientered public school in first grade. I noticed how the other kids were able to answer questions in class a lot faster than I could understand. Because of my slow thinking, it took me two minutes to come up with an answer. From that year on, I received special accommodations for my studies, such as sitting in front of the class to read the blackboard better, and taking longer time on tests.
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。
Paragraph 1:
My teacher and classmates tried their best to help me.
Paragraph 2:
Thanks to my classmates, I made great changes.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了荷兰郁金香田中使用的高科技机器人Theo的工作情况，包括其如何检测并杀死生病的郁金香鳞茎以防止病毒传播，以及这些机器人在郁金香产业中的重要性。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The robot rolls along rows of yellow and red tulips, checking each plant and, when necessary, killing diseased bulbs(鳞茎)to prevent the spread of the tulip-breaking virus(病毒). The virus weakens the bulb, leaving them unable to flower. The dead bulbs are removed from healthy ones in a sorting center after they have been harvested.(机器人沿着一排排黄色和红色的郁金香滚动，检查每棵植物，必要时，杀死患病的鳞茎，以防止郁金香破裂病毒的传播。病毒削弱了球茎，使它们无法开花。在收获后，死球茎会在分拣中心从健康球茎中取出。)”可知，机器人Theo在郁金香田中滚动，检查每株植物，并在必要时杀死生病的鳞茎以防止郁金香破碎病毒的传播。因此，它的工作是清除有问题的鳞茎。故选B。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Allan Visser is a third-generation tulip farmer who is using the robot. “You could buy a very nice sports car for the price of the robot,” Visser said. The robot costs 185,000 euros. “It’s a lot slower than a sports car, rolling on caterpillar tracks through fields,” he added. “But I choose the robot because a sports car doesn’t see the sick tulips. Now there are fewer and fewer people who can really do that.”(Allan Visser是第三代郁金香种植者，他正在使用这个机器人。“你可以用机器人的价格买一辆非常好的跑车，”Visser说。该机器人售价18.5万欧元。“它比跑车慢得多，在田地里的履带上滚动，”他补充说。“但我选择机器人是因为跑车看不到病态的郁金香。现在真正能做到这一点的人越来越少了。”)”可知，从Visser的话中，我们可以推断出他认为这个机器人是值得这个价格的。他提到虽然机器人的价格相当于一辆很漂亮的跑车，但是跑车并不能看到生病的郁金香，而机器人可以。这暗示了他认为机器人虽然昂贵，但其能够执行的工作和带来的效益使得这个价格是值得的。故选C。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段“Their AI model examines the photos, hunting out signs on sick plants, and decides which ones need to be killed. The engineer explains the robots use GPS to be sure they are destroying the correct tulips. The heart of the machine is the knowledge put into the AI model, which comes from experienced tulip farmers like Theo van der Voort, who gave his name to the robot.(他们的人工智能模型检查照片，寻找生病植物上的迹象，并决定哪些需要杀死。这位工程师解释说，机器人使用GPS来确保它们摧毁的是正确的郁金香。这台机器的核心是输入人工智能模型的知识，这些知识来自于经验丰富的郁金香种植者，比如Theo van der Voort，他给这台机器人取了名字。)”可知，机器人的核心是AI模型中的知识，这些知识来自于像Theo van der Voort这样有经验的郁金香农民。这表明，使机器人有效工作的关键是人类的知识和经验，它们被输入到AI模型中，以便机器人能够准确地检测和处理生病的郁金香。故选D。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Theo works days, nights, and weekends in the tulip(郁金香)fields in the Netherlands and never complains about tired muscles. How is this possible Theo, named after a retired farmer, is a high-tech robot in the battle to root out disease from the fields.( Theo不分昼夜，连周末都在荷兰的郁金香地里工作，从不抱怨肌肉疲劳。这怎么可能呢？Theo是以一位退休农民的名字命名的，他是一个高科技机器人，在田地里消灭疾病。)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要介绍了机器人Theo在荷兰郁金香田中的应用和其在提高生产效率、预防病毒传播方面的重要性。选项A“Theo’s Watch: An Advance in Tulip Farming (Theo的守望：郁金香农业的进步)”既突出了主角机器人Theo，又表明了它所带来的农业进步，最能概括文章的主旨。故选A。
【答案】32. A 33. B 34. D 35. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了青少年与同龄人在一起时更容易冒险的原因，并通过实验表明同龄人的影响也会促使青少年在学习方面取得更好的表现，专家建议利用青少年对朋友的敏感来促进教育。
【32题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线词所在句“Parents of teenagers often view their children’s friends with distrust, worrying that their children will be pushed by their peers into doing something foolish or even dangerous. Their worries hold water.”（青少年的父母往往不信任他们孩子的朋友，担心他们的孩子会被同龄人怂恿去做一些愚蠢甚至危险的事情。他们的担忧hold water。）和下文“In a previous study, psychologist Laurence Steinberg found that a teenage driver with a same-age passenger in the car is at higher risk of traffic accidents than one driving alone or with an adult.”（在之前的一项研究中，心理学家劳伦斯·斯坦伯格发现，与单独驾驶或与成年人驾驶相比，与同龄乘客一起驾驶的青少年司机发生交通事故的风险更高。）可知，下文用一项研究结论来说明青少年与同龄人在一起时，做一些愚蠢甚至危险的事情，发生意外的可能性确实更高，所以“父母的担心是有道理的”，hold water与make sense意思相近，意为“有道理”。故选A项。

细节理解题。根据第二段中“The reward systems of the brain are activated whenever people experience something rewarding, like eating a nice-tasting food, which make them feel satisfied. In this case, rewards are greater for teens, which motivates them to seek higher-risk experiences.”（当人们体验到一些有益的东西时，大脑的奖励系统就会被激活，比如吃到美味的食物，这会让他们感到满足。在这种情况下，青少年获得的奖励更大，这促使他们寻求更高风险的体验。）可知，青少年之所以会有危险行为，是因为他们寻求奖励，寻求满足感，所以获得满足感是青少年危险行为背后的原因。故选B项。

细节理解题。根据第三段中“Players with peers were more willing to take risks, trying to figure out which decks could help them to win. The results showed that teens playing with their peers engage in more exploratory behavior, learn faster and achieve better performance on the task than those playing alone.”（有同伴的玩家更愿意冒险，试图找出哪些牌组可以帮助他们获胜。结果表明，与同龄人一起玩的青少年比单独玩的青少年更有探索行为，学习速度更快，在任务中表现更好。）可知，在最新的研究中，有同伴的玩家更愿意冒险，而这种冒险可以帮助青少年学得更快，表现更好。故选D项。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Now some experts are proposing that we should take advantage of the teens’ keen sensitivity (敏感) to the presence of friends to improve education.”（现在，一些专家建议，我们应该利用青少年对朋友在场的敏锐感知来改善教育。）和Blakemore的话“Risk taking in an educational context is a vital skill that enables progress and creativity,”（在教育背景下，冒险是一项重要的技能，它能够促进进步和创造力的发展。）可推知，Blakemore会建议教师在课堂上进行小组讨论等活动，利用青少年对朋友在场的敏锐感知来提高他们的冒险精神和创造力。故选A项。
