With over 70% of the country blanketed in forest, Bhutan is rich in outdoor activities and charming villages that showcase a distinctive culture found nowhere else on the Earth. Here are our picks for the best places to add to your Bhutan traveling list.
Paro
Less than 10 minutes away from the airport, the historic riverside town of Paro is known for the National Museum, Rinpung Dzong and symbolic Tiger's Nest Monastery. Wander along Paro's streets and the Paro Weekend Market to explore shops and stands offering handmade souvenirs. When you've worked up an appetite, step into any restaurant for fresh, handmade momo dumplings.
Thimphu
In Bhutan's capital city, spend the day creating your own stamps at the Bhutan Postal Museum, touring the massive Thimphu's museums and watching policemen manually direct traffic(there are no traffic lights in the entire city). When the sun sets below the mountains, enjoy yourself at bars like Grey Area, a popular art bar with live music where you can shout "tashi delek!", a Xizang's expression for good luck and health.
Punakha
Beloved for riverside farms where cows eat among rice and pepper fields, Punakha is home to what is its most beautiful temple, which sits along the Punakha River. Punakha's low altitude means it tends to be hotter and sunnier than nearby towns and districts, which means you'll need to take precautions to avoid sunburn.
Khoma
Fashion lovers can expect to visit behind the curtain in Bhutan's textile center, Khoma. In the eastern district of Lhuentse, this village is home to roughly 1,000 residents—and few cars. Khoma's artisans spend their days weaving delicate patterns and designs on traditional Bhutanese looms(织布机), creating colors from the area's minerals and plants.

Ms. McIntyre, 38, worked as a publisher. She suffered brain cancer and her health got worse despite some medical treatment. But she realized that in a way, she was luckier than some other people. She had insurance to help pay for her medical care. But Ms. McIntyre and her husband, Mr. Gregory, knew that many people with cancer face tough decisions because of the costs of medical care and wind up owing far more than they can pay.
Though her health was failing, Ms. McIntyre decided to help pay off the medical debts of as many people as she possibly could. The couple began donating money to a group called RIP Medical Debt, which is committed to working to pay off the unpaid medical debts of others. The group can pay off medical bills for about 100 times less money than they cost. In other words, for every 100donated, the group can pay off 10,000 in unpaid medical bills.
Unfortunately, Ms. McIntyre passed away before long. Mr. Gregory posted a message for Ms. McIntyre on her social media accounts. "If you're reading this, I have passed away," the post began. Then the post explained, "To celebrate my life, I've arranged to buy up others' medical debts and then destroy the debts."
The couple had set up a page on a website to raise money for this purpose. They had hoped to raise about $20,000. Nevertheless, Ms. McIntyre's last post attracted a lot of attention. The donations on her web page quickly passed the total goal. In less than a week, the site had raised 10 times more than expected and the donations are still coming in. By November 22, 2023, Ms. McIntyre's web page had raised over $627,000, or enough money to pay off about $60million in medical debts.
Mr. Gregory planned a special event in December to celebrate Ms. McIntyre's life and to announce how many millions of dollars of medical debts her efforts had paid for.
24.Why did Ms. McIntyre feel luckier than some other people
A.The doctors eventually cured her.
B.Her disease didn't become worse.
C.She had a decent job before being ill.
D.She had security about medical care.
25.How did Ms. McIntyre and her husband help others
A.By paying for their daily debts.
B.By giving away money to them.
C.By ridding them of debts from treatments.
D.By purchasing medical insurance for them.
26.What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A.The public involvement.
B.The couple's commitment.
C.The operation of a website.
D.The increase of medical debts.
27.Which of the following words can best describe Ms. McIntyre
A.Humorous and elegant. B.Influential and understanding.
C.Cautious and promising. D.Enthusiastic and adaptable.

Can you name a famous elephant Babar, perhaps Or Dumbo Though these names may be memorable to humans, they sound nothing like the names elephants give each other. "If you're an elephant, your name is something more like a low, rumbling sound(隆隆的声音)," scientists say. Researchers have found that African elephants emit sounds in response to individuals in their social group, and the receivers respond accordingly.
Researchers recorded 527 elephant calls in northern Kenya and 98 calls in southern Kenya. They then distinguished which members were separated from the herd at the time of each call, or which members were close to the herd. Researchers correctly identified the receivers of 20.3% of the 625 recorded calls. This marks a step forward in understanding how these highly intelligent animals communicate.
"There's a contact rumble, an anti-predator rumble and a greeting rumble. If you look at a spectrogram(声谱图)with your eyes, they all look almost exactly the same," said Caitlin O'Connell-Rodwell, an elephant biologist at Harvard Medical School. "That's why artificial intelligence(AI)has been exciting. It allows us to really figure out what the elephants are saying."
As it turned out, the calls were distinct to the receivers. Even calls from different callers to the same receiver were similar. The pattern was less obvious than it was between a single caller and his or her receiver. This may be because rumbles encode(把……编码)multiple messages at the same time, so the AI system in computer model may not have been able to pick out the "name" used in each call. "It just highlights the complexity of what's going on. And we're not skilled enough in these measurements to figure out what's going on," said Caitlin.
However, the research shows how elephants are navigating through a large landscape and can still keep in touch with specific individuals. It allows them to spread out much further and still have very close tabs on individuals, not just the group.
28.What can we infer from paragraph 1
A.Elephants seem to have their own names.
B.Elephants' sounds differ from other species.
C.Elephants' names sound exactly like humans'.
D.Elephants' names sound different from each other.
29.How did the researchers conduct their study
A.By grouping the elephants based on intelligence.
B.By observing the elephants' reactions to the calls.
C.By analyzing the relationship within the elephants.
D.By copying the elephants' voice to call their names.
30.What is the function of AI in the research
A.Simplifying the process. B.Creating a spectrogram.
C.Letting out various rumbles. D.Making out each rumble.
31.What can be the best title for the text
A.How do elephants contact each other
B.Why do elephants make their voice
C.Do elephants name one another
D.Do elephants like to be called

As a saying goes, you're only as old as you feel, but what if different parts of your body aged at different speeds It turns out they do. The study about the age of our bodies shows that different tissues(组织)inside us are effectively different ages. In 2012, Professor Steve Horvath at the University of California, Los Angeles, looked at something new—DNA methylation(甲基化), a naturally occurring process in which DNA is chemically changed over time.
Horvath analyzed the DNA in 8,000 tissue samples from different parts of the body in different people to study these markers. What he found was striking—the amount of methylation in cells from most parts of the body was a good predictor of the person's age. But there were inconsistencies. Breast tissue, for instance, ages rapidly, whereas muscle ages slowly. The rates of ageing are also different in men and women. "There are many medical implications, from cancer to premature ageing diseases," says Horvath. It has already been established that tissue that looks significantly older could be cancerous. Horvath's study found that cancerous tissue has a biological age on average 36 years older than a subject's actual age.
Could this knowledge help us live longer "If the markers relate to a process that causes ageing, then it would be theoretically possible to slow down ageing by carefully targeting DNA methylation," says Horvath. But before scientists got to work on dealing with methylation, they first needed to establish whether these changes were the cause of ageing or just a byproduct of another process. Now, a 2023 study from the University of Michigan has backed up Professor Horvath's findings, which means they can safely make further studies of methylation.
"Our main aim was to see whether biological age acceleration measured from DNA methylation was predictive of health outcomes and death," said research associate professor Jessica Faul. "It turned out that it is largely the case. You can use certain DNA methylation markers to predict age and age-related outcomes quite well."
32.What is the purpose of the first paragraph
A.To lead in the topic of the text.
B.To summarize the whole text.
C.To offer suggestions to readers.
D.To stimulate readers to imagine.
33.What do we know about Horvath's discovery about methylation
A.It helps people live much longer.
B.It doesn't always predict one's age.
C.It exists in some parts of one's body.
D.It causes the different rates of ageing.
34.What does the underlined phrase "backed up" in paragraph 3 most probably mean
A.Consulted. B.Contradicted. C.Approved. D.Predicted.
35.How does Jessica Faul find DNA methylation as a predictor of health
A.Avoidable. B.Unrealistic. C.Risky. D.Potential.

People are always living with technology nowadays. Here comes a smart home, which is controlled by the touch of a button. 36. This acts like a remote control to activate household systems and monitor inside temperatures. If done successfully, a smart home system will be integrated so seamlessly that a household will appear to run itself.
Home automation is designed to introduce efficiency to a home. 37. An efficient smart home uses sensors to prevent over-watering of outdoor gardens and control room temperatures, all of which can reduce expenses. In addition to cost savings, home automation often provides a sense of security to homeowners.

Lighting activation runs on times, which can be a life saver if an oven is left on when someone leaves the home. 38.
Home automation is not just for safety, however. 39. With a centralized control unit, a person does not have to leave the couch to turn down the blinds or even order groceries, which can be automated.
40. Such a home becomes dependent on technology for routine tasks. If something goes wrong with the central automation unit, it is not just one appliance at risk as malfunctions can disrupt systems that are vital to running a home. As a result, for all people, a home can become a place of technical faults that repeatedly require repair.
A. A smart home doesn't apply to all family members.
B. It achieves this by saving homeowners time and money.
C. There are some drawbacks with an automated home system.
D. It can also provide convenience for people living in the home.
E. Home automation depends on furniture and home temperatures.
F. Besides protecting people, it also offers security for expensive items inside a residence.
G. Through home automation, an entire house can be connected via a smart controller.

A Speech Contest About "Health and Sport"

Daniel's mother, Debbie Ashworth struggled to raise her two kids. As the older child at home, Daniel was a good help to his mother, cleaning the room and caring for his younger brother, Tony.
On a cold winter morning, Debbie asked the kids to go to the supermarket for some groceries. A toy panda on the she If caught Tony's eyes. It was so adorable that he could hardly tear himself away from it. Knowing that they couldn't afford it, Daniel told his brother to put it back. But Tony really wanted it and was unwilling to leave. "Please, I can wait until Mom's salary came in on June 15th," Tony said. Daniel hesitated for a while, then took out a pen and wrote a note, which read, "Please keep the toy panda for my little brother until June 15th, when my mother gets her salary to pay for it. Thanks." Placing the note on top of the box, they left the supermarket relieved.
One of the staff spotted the note, who then showed it to the manager. The note melted everyone there and they decided to do something thoughtfully. They put away the toy panda so that it wouldn't be purchased by other shoppers. After that, they tried their best to search for the two boys, but in vain. There was no other clue(线索)on the note to identify them. It appeared that they had no alternative but to wait until June 15th, which was about half a month away.
The big day finally arrived. Unexpectedly, the two boys didn't show up. "Maybe they have forgotten all about the toy," one clerk whispered. "Impossible. A toy animal might not mean much to an adult. But for a child, it could mean the world," the manager said. "We must come up with a way to contact them." They decided to turn to the Internet by posting the note and their phone number online, hoping it could bring a surprise.
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。
The post eventually attracted the attention of Debbie. …… "I lost my job last month," Debbie sighed(叹气).

【知识点】独白
【解析】【听力原文】 W: Hello, everyone. Today I'll talk about how to improve your pronunciation. Language researchers say pronunciation and fluency are the biggest barriers, followed by grammar, in effective spoken English. However, most people don't regard pronunciation as a very important part of communication skills. They're more focused on vocabulary. One reason is that most people are not even aware of their mispronunciations. So it's important to first find out the words you mispronounce. You should listen to experts, by experts. I mean those who are less likely to make pronunciation mistakes. When listening to them, pay attention to words that sound strange—strange because you pronounce the same words differently. When you come across such words, check a dictionary to confirm their exact pronunciations. You can also search for difficult-to-pronounce words and names, and make a list of them. The last suggestion is to read aloud. Now you've got the correct pronunciations of the words. It's time to practice reading them every day.

18.问题:大多数人认为在口头交流中什么非常重要?根据"However, most people don't regard
pronunciation as a very important part of communication skills. They're more focused on
vocabulary. " 然而,大多数人并不认为发音是沟通技巧中非常重要的一部分。他们更关注词汇。 可推知,大部分人认为在口头交流中词汇非常重要,故选C。
19.问题:根据发言人的说法,为什么你应该听专家的意见?根据"So it's important to first find out
the words you mispronounce. You should listen to experts, by experts. I mean those who are less likely to make pronunciation mistakes." 因此,首先找出你发音不准的单词是很重要的。你应该听专家的发音,我说的专家是指那些不太可能发音出错的人 。可推知,根据发言人的说法,听专家意见的原因是可以找出你的发音错误,故选C。

Researchers have found that African elephants emit sounds in response to individuals in their social group, and the receivers respond accordingly.(科学家说:"如果你是一头大象,你的名字更像是一种低沉的隆隆声。"研究人员发现,非洲大象会发出声音来回应它们社会群体中的个体,而接受者也会做出相应的反应)"可推知,大象似乎有自己的名字。故选A。
29.细节理解题。根据第二段"Researchers recorded 527 elephant calls in northern Kenya and 98 calls in southern Kenya. They then distinguished which members were separated from the herd at the time of each call, or which members were close to the herd. Researchers correctly identified the receivers of 20.3% of the 625 recorded calls. (研究人员在肯尼亚北部记录了527次大象的叫声,在肯尼亚南部记录了98次。然后,他们区分出在每次鸣叫时,哪些成员离开了鹿群,哪些成员离鹿群很近。在625个呼叫记录中,研究人员正确识别了20.3%的接收者)"可知,研究人员通过观察大象对叫声的反应进行他们的研究。故选B。
30.细节理解题。根据倒数第二段"This may be because rumbles encode multiple messages at the same time, so the AI system in computer model may not have been able to pick out the "name" used in each call.(这可能是因为隆隆声同时编码了多个信息,所以计算机模型中的人工智能系统可能无法挑选出每个呼叫中使用的"名称")"可知,人工智能在研究中的作用是辨认每一次隆隆声。故选D。

32.推理判断题。根据第一段"As a saying goes, you're only as old as you feel, but what if different parts of your body aged at different speeds It turns out they do. The study about the age of our bodies shows that different tissues inside us are effectively different ages. In 2012, Professor Steve Horvath at the University of California, Los Angeles, looked at something new—DNA methylation (甲基化), a naturally occurring process in which DNA is chemically changed over time.(俗话说,你的年龄取决于你的感觉,但如果你身体的不同部位以不同的速度衰老呢?事实证明确实如此。关于我们身体年龄的研究表明,我们体内不同的组织实际上代表着不同的年龄。2012年,加州大学洛杉矶分校的史蒂夫·霍瓦特教授研究了一些新的现象——DNA甲基化,这是一种自然发生的过程,DNA随着时间的推移发生化学变化)"可知,第一段的目的是引出文章主题。故选A。
33.细节理解题。根据第二段"But there were inconsistencies. Breast tissue, for instance, ages rapidly, whereas muscle ages slowly. The rates of ageing are also different in men and women.(但也有不一致之处。例如,乳房组织衰老得很快,而肌肉衰老得很慢。男性和女性的老龄化速度也不同)"可知,霍瓦特关于甲基化的发现并不总是能预测一个人的年龄。故选B。
34.词义猜测题。根据划线词后文"which means they can safely make further studies of methylation"可知,现在,密歇根大学2023年的一项研究意味着他们可以安全地对甲基化进行进一步的研究,说明这项研究支持了霍瓦特教授的发现,故划线词意思是"支持"。故选C。
35.推理判断题。根据最后一段""Our main aim was to see whether biological age acceleration measured from DNA methylation was predictive of health outcomes and death," said research associate professor Jessica Faul. "It turned out that it is largely the case. You can use certain DNA methylation markers to predict age and age-related outcomes quite well."(研究副教授杰西卡·福尔说:"我们的主要目的是看看通过DNA甲基化测量的生物年龄加速是否能预测健康状况和死亡。""事实证明,情况基本上是这样的。你可以使用某些DNA甲基化标记来很好地预测年龄和与年龄相关的结果。")"可知,杰西卡·福尔认为DNA甲基化作为健康的一个预测因素是很有潜力的。故选D。

【点评】考查任务型阅读(七选五)。解题时,要求考生注意通读整篇文章,把握整段脉络,理出文章的中心,分析段落之间和段落内部的层次。选项与前后句之间的逻辑关系是确定答案的主要依据。可以从意思、关键词、关联词来分析段落之间以及段落内部的逻辑关系。七选五解题的一些实用技巧如下。第一,快速浏览全文,把握文章主旨。在开始解题前,快速浏览全文,了解文章的大致内容和主题,有助于更好地理解和判断每个选项的合适性。第二,注意段首句和段尾句。段首句往往是对整段的概括或引入,而段尾句则常常是对该段的总结或结论。因此,关注这些句子有助于我们快速了解段落的主旨,从而更好地选择答案。第三,利用上下文语境和逻辑关系进行推断。在选择答案时,要仔细阅读上下文,寻找与选项相关的线索和信息,如关联词、同义词、反义词等。同时,也要根据逻辑关系进行推断,如因果、转折、并列等,从而确定正确答案。第四,排除法也是一种有效的解题方法。当面对多个选项时,可以先排除与文章主旨或上下文不符的选项,然后再根据剩余选项的内容进行比较和选择。
36.根据上文"People are always living with technology nowadays. Here comes a smart home, which is controlled by the touch of a button.(现在人们总是和科技生活在一起。智能家居问世了,只要按一下按钮就可以控制)"以及后文"This acts like a remote control to activate household systems and monitor inside temperatures. If done successfully, a smart home system will be integrated so seamlessly that a household will appear to run itself.(它就像一个遥控器,可以激活家用系统并监控室内温度。如果成功的话,一个智能家居系统将被无缝集成,以至于一个家庭似乎可以自己运行)"可知,后文提到了一个智能家居系统将被无缝集成,推测本句是在说明家庭自动化将房子连接起来的方式。故G选项"通过家庭自动化,整个房子可以通过智能控制器连接起来"符合语境,故选G。
37.根据上文"Home automation is designed to introduce efficiency to a home.(家庭自动化的目的是提高家庭的效率)"以及后文"An efficient smart home uses sensors to prevent over watering of outdoor gardens and control room temperatures, all of which can reduce expenses. In addition to cost savings, home automation often provides a sense of security to homeowners.(高效的智能家居使用传感器来防止室外花园浇水过多和控制室内温度,所有这些都可以减少费用。除了节省成本外,家庭自动化还经常为房主提供安全感)"可知,后文提到了节省成本,推测本句启示后文,是在说明家庭自动化可以省钱,故B选项"它通过节省房主的时间和金钱来实现这一点"符合语境,故选B。
38.根据上文"Families with children or elderly adults in the home may be reassured by some safeguards in smart home security, like fire alarms that alert the appropriate agencies in the event of a problem. Lighting activation runs on timers, which can be a life saver if an oven is left on when someone leaves the home.(家里有小孩或老人的家庭可以通过智能家居安全的一些保障措施来放心,比如火灾报警器,当出现问题时,它会向有关机构发出警报。当有人离开家时,如果烤箱还开着,那么照明激活就可以通过计时器来实现)"可知,本段的主旨是家庭自动化可以保护人们的安全,上文提到了出现火灾等情况,本句为本段最后一句,故说明其他可以保护方面。故F选项"除了保护人们,它还为住宅内的贵重物品提供安全保护"符合语境,故选F。
39.根据上文"Home automation is not just for safety, however.(然而,家庭自动化不仅仅是为了安全)"以及后文"With a centralized control unit, a person does not have to leave the couch to turn down the blinds or even order groceries, which can be automated.(有了一个集中控制单元,一个人不必离开沙发就可以拉下百叶窗,甚至可以自动订购杂货)"可知,本句承接上文,继续说明家庭自动化的其他好处,结合后文的例子可知,家庭自动化提供了方便。故D选项"它也可以为生活在家里的人提供方便"符合语境,故选D。
40.根据后文"Such a home becomes dependent on technology for routine tasks. If something goes wrong with the central automation unit, it is not just one appliance at risk as malfunctions can disrupt systems that are vital to running a home. As a result, for all people, a home can become a place of technical faults that repeatedly require repair.(这样的家庭变得依赖于技术来完成日常任务。如果中央自动化单元出现问题,就不仅仅是一台设备有风险,因为故障可能会破坏对家庭运行至关重要的系统。因此,对所有人来说,家都可能成为一个不断出现技术故障、需要修理的地方)"可知,本段提到智能家居可能存在故障,让家成为一个不断出现技术故障、需要修理的地方,即存在缺点。故C选项"自动化家庭系统有一些缺点"符合语境,故选C。

【知识点】独白
【解析】【听力原文】 W: Hello, everyone. Today I'll talk about how to improve your pronunciation. Language researchers say pronunciation and fluency are the biggest barriers, followed by grammar, in effective spoken English. However, most people don't regard pronunciation as a very important part of communication skills. They're more focused on vocabulary. One reason is that most people are not even aware of their mispronunciations. So it's important to first find out the words you mispronounce. You should listen to experts, by experts. I mean those who are less likely to make pronunciation mistakes. When listening to them, pay attention to words that sound strange—strange because you pronounce the same words differently. When you come across such words, check a dictionary to confirm their exact pronunciations. You can also search for difficult-to-pronounce words and names, and make a list of them. The last suggestion is to read aloud. Now you've got the correct pronunciations of the words. It's time to practice reading them every day.
【分析】本段独白主要围绕如何改善发音这一话题展开谈论。
【点评】考查独白理解。注意关注首尾句及段落主题,听力独白的开头和结尾通常包含重要的信息,如主题、背景或结论。同样,每个段落的开头和结尾也往往能揭示该段落的主题或要点。因此,考生在听录音时,要特别注意这些位置,以便更好地把握整体内容和结构。注意边听边记重要细节,由于听力独白通常较长,考生很难完全记住所有内容。因此,建议考生在听录音时,边听边记重要细节。可以使用简洁的符号或缩写来记录关键信息,以便在回答问题时能够迅速回忆起相关内容。注意借助上下文推测信息,在听力独白中,有些信息可能并不直接给出,但考生可以通过上下文进行推测。例如,根据前文提到的内容或语境,可以推断出某些未明确表述的信息或意图。
18.问题:大多数人认为在口头交流中什么非常重要?根据"However, most people don't regard
pronunciation as a very important part of communication skills. They're more focused on
vocabulary. " 然而,大多数人并不认为发音是沟通技巧中非常重要的一部分。他们更关注词汇。 可推知,大部分人认为在口头交流中词汇非常重要,故选C。
19.问题:根据发言人的说法,为什么你应该听专家的意见?根据"So it's important to first find out
the words you mispronounce. You should listen to experts, by experts. I mean those who are less likely to make pronunciation mistakes." 因此,首先找出你发音不准的单词是很重要的。你应该听专家的发音,我说的专家是指那些不太可能发音出错的人 。可推知,根据发言人的说法,听专家意见的原因是可以找出你的发音错误,故选C。

With over 70% of the country blanketed in forest, Bhutan is rich in outdoor activities and charming villages that showcase a distinctive culture found nowhere else on the Earth. Here are our picks for the best places to add to your Bhutan traveling list.
Paro
Less than 10 minutes away from the airport, the historic riverside town of Paro is known for the National Museum, Rinpung Dzong and symbolic Tiger's Nest Monastery. Wander along Paro's streets and the Paro Weekend Market to explore shops and stands offering handmade souvenirs. When you've worked up an appetite, step into any restaurant for fresh, handmade momo dumplings.
Thimphu
In Bhutan's capital city, spend the day creating your own stamps at the Bhutan Postal Museum, touring the massive Thimphu's museums and watching policemen manually direct traffic(there are no traffic lights in the entire city). When the sun sets below the mountains, enjoy yourself at bars like Grey Area, a popular art bar with live music where you can shout "tashi delek!", a Xizang's expression for good luck and health.
Punakha
Beloved for riverside farms where cows eat among rice and pepper fields, Punakha is home to what is its most beautiful temple, which sits along the Punakha River. Punakha's low altitude means it tends to be hotter and sunnier than nearby towns and districts, which means you'll need to take precautions to avoid sunburn.
Khoma
Fashion lovers can expect to visit behind the curtain in Bhutan's textile center, Khoma. In the eastern district of Lhuentse, this village is home to roughly 1,000 residents—and few cars. Khoma's artisans spend their days weaving delicate patterns and designs on traditional Bhutanese looms(织布机), creating colors from the area's minerals and plants.

Ms. McIntyre, 38, worked as a publisher. She suffered brain cancer and her health got worse despite some medical treatment. But she realized that in a way, she was luckier than some other people. She had insurance to help pay for her medical care. But Ms. McIntyre and her husband, Mr. Gregory, knew that many people with cancer face tough decisions because of the costs of medical care and wind up owing far more than they can pay.
Though her health was failing, Ms. McIntyre decided to help pay off the medical debts of as many people as she possibly could. The couple began donating money to a group called RIP Medical Debt, which is committed to working to pay off the unpaid medical debts of others. The group can pay off medical bills for about 100 times less money than they cost. In other words, for every 100donated, the group can pay off 10,000 in unpaid medical bills.
Unfortunately, Ms. McIntyre passed away before long. Mr. Gregory posted a message for Ms. McIntyre on her social media accounts. "If you're reading this, I have passed away," the post began. Then the post explained, "To celebrate my life, I've arranged to buy up others' medical debts and then destroy the debts."
The couple had set up a page on a website to raise money for this purpose. They had hoped to raise about $20,000. Nevertheless, Ms. McIntyre's last post attracted a lot of attention. The donations on her web page quickly passed the total goal. In less than a week, the site had raised 10 times more than expected and the donations are still coming in. By November 22, 2023, Ms. McIntyre's web page had raised over $627,000, or enough money to pay off about $60million in medical debts.
Mr. Gregory planned a special event in December to celebrate Ms. McIntyre's life and to announce how many millions of dollars of medical debts her efforts had paid for.
24.Why did Ms. McIntyre feel luckier than some other people
A.The doctors eventually cured her.
B.Her disease didn't become worse.
C.She had a decent job before being ill.
D.She had security about medical care.
25.How did Ms. McIntyre and her husband help others
A.By paying for their daily debts.
B.By giving away money to them.
C.By ridding them of debts from treatments.
D.By purchasing medical insurance for them.
26.What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A.The public involvement.
B.The couple's commitment.
C.The operation of a website.
D.The increase of medical debts.
27.Which of the following words can best describe Ms. McIntyre

Can you name a famous elephant Babar, perhaps Or Dumbo Though these names may be memorable to humans, they sound nothing like the names elephants give each other. "If you're an elephant, your name is something more like a low, rumbling sound(隆隆的声音)," scientists say. Researchers have found that African elephants emit sounds in response to individuals in their social group, and the receivers respond accordingly.
Researchers recorded 527 elephant calls in northern Kenya and 98 calls in southern Kenya. They then distinguished which members were separated from the herd at the time of each call, or which members were close to the herd. Researchers correctly identified the receivers of 20.3% of the 625 recorded calls. This marks a step forward in understanding how these highly intelligent animals communicate.
"There's a contact rumble, an anti-predator rumble and a greeting rumble. If you look at a spectrogram(声谱图)with your eyes, they all look almost exactly the same," said Caitlin O'Connell-Rodwell, an elephant biologist at Harvard Medical School. "That's why artificial intelligence(AI)has been exciting. It allows us to really figure out what the elephants are saying."
As it turned out, the calls were distinct to the receivers. Even calls from different callers to the same receiver were similar. The pattern was less obvious than it was between a single caller and his or her receiver. This may be because rumbles encode(把……编码)multiple messages at the same time, so the AI system in computer model may not have been able to pick out the "name" used in each call. "It just highlights the complexity of what's going on. And we're not skilled enough in these measurements to figure out what's going on," said Caitlin.
However, the research shows how elephants are navigating through a large landscape and can still keep in touch with specific individuals. It allows them to spread out much further and still have very close tabs on individuals, not just the group.
28.What can we infer from paragraph 1
A.Elephants seem to have their own names.
B.Elephants' sounds differ from other species.
C.Elephants' names sound exactly like humans'.
D.Elephants' names sound different from each other.
29.How did the researchers conduct their study
A.By grouping the elephants based on intelligence.
B.By observing the elephants' reactions to the calls.
C.By analyzing the relationship within the elephants.
D.By copying the elephants' voice to call their names.
30.What is the function of AI in the research
A.Simplifying the process. B.Creating a spectrogram.
C.Letting out various rumbles. D.Making out each rumble.
31.What can be the best title for the text
A.How do elephants contact each other
B.Why do elephants make their voice
C.Do elephants name one another
D.Do elephants like to be called

As a saying goes, you're only as old as you feel, but what if different parts of your body aged at different speeds It turns out they do. The study about the age of our bodies shows that different tissues(组织)inside us are effectively different ages. In 2012, Professor Steve Horvath at the University of California, Los Angeles, looked at something new—DNA methylation(甲基化), a naturally occurring process in which DNA is chemically changed over time.
Horvath analyzed the DNA in 8,000 tissue samples from different parts of the body in different people to study these markers. What he found was striking—the amount of methylation in cells from most parts of the body was a good predictor of the person's age. But there were inconsistencies. Breast tissue, for instance, ages rapidly, whereas muscle ages slowly. The rates of ageing are also different in men and women. "There are many medical implications, from cancer to premature ageing diseases," says Horvath. It has already been established that tissue that looks significantly older could be cancerous. Horvath's study found that cancerous tissue has a biological age on average 36 years older than a subject's actual age.
Could this knowledge help us live longer "If the markers relate to a process that causes ageing, then it would be theoretically possible to slow down ageing by carefully targeting DNA methylation," says Horvath. But before scientists got to work on dealing with methylation, they first needed to establish whether these changes were the cause of ageing or just a byproduct of another process. Now, a 2023 study from the University of Michigan has backed up Professor Horvath's findings, which means they can safely make further studies of methylation.
"Our main aim was to see whether biological age acceleration measured from DNA methylation was predictive of health outcomes and death," said research associate professor Jessica Faul. "It turned out that it is largely the case. You can use certain DNA methylation markers to predict age and age-related outcomes quite well."

People are always living with technology nowadays. Here comes a smart home, which is controlled by the touch of a button. 36. This acts like a remote control to activate household systems and monitor inside temperatures. If done successfully, a smart home system will be integrated so seamlessly that a household will appear to run itself.
Home automation is designed to introduce efficiency to a home. 37. An efficient smart home uses sensors to prevent over-watering of outdoor gardens and control room temperatures, all of which can reduce expenses. In addition to cost savings, home automation often provides a sense of security to homeowners.
Families with children or elderly adults in the home may be reassured by some safeguards in smart home security, like fire alarms that alert the appropriate agencies in the event of a problem. Lighting activation runs on times, which can be a life saver if an oven is left on when someone leaves the home. 38.
Home automation is not just for safety, however. 39. With a centralized control unit, a person does not have to leave the couch to turn down the blinds or even order groceries, which can be automated.
40. Such a home becomes dependent on technology for routine tasks. If something goes wrong with the central automation unit, it is not just one appliance at risk as malfunctions can disrupt systems that are vital to running a home. As a result, for all people, a home can become a place of technical faults that repeatedly require repair.

Daniel's mother, Debbie Ashworth struggled to raise her two kids. As the older child at home, Daniel was a good help to his mother, cleaning the room and caring for his younger brother, Tony.
On a cold winter morning, Debbie asked the kids to go to the supermarket for some groceries. A toy panda on the she If caught Tony's eyes. It was so adorable that he could hardly tear himself away from it. Knowing that they couldn't afford it, Daniel told his brother to put it back. But Tony really wanted it and was unwilling to leave. "Please, I can wait until Mom's salary came in on June 15th," Tony said. Daniel hesitated for a while, then took out a pen and wrote a note, which read, "Please keep the toy panda for my little brother until June 15th, when my mother gets her salary to pay for it. Thanks." Placing the note on top of the box, they left the supermarket relieved.
One of the staff spotted the note, who then showed it to the manager. The note melted everyone there and they decided to do something thoughtfully. They put away the toy panda so that it wouldn't be purchased by other shoppers. After that, they tried their best to search for the two boys, but in vain. There was no other clue(线索)on the note to identify them. It appeared that they had no alternative but to wait until June 15th, which was about half a month away.
The big day finally arrived. Unexpectedly, the two boys didn't show up. "Maybe they have forgotten all about the toy," one clerk whispered. "Impossible. A toy animal might not mean much to an adult. But for a child, it could mean the world," the manager said. "We must come up with a way to contact them." They decided to turn to the Internet by posting the note and their phone number online, hoping it could bring a surprise.

"But why didn't you come for the toy on June 15th " the manager asked the two boys in a gentle voice. Hearing this, both of them lowered their heads.
"I lost my job last month," Debbie sighed(叹气). She explained that knowing the news, the boys decided to keep the toy as a secret. So she had no idea about the case until she spotted the post online. Hearing this, everyone present was deeply moved. Turning to Debbie, the manager said, "I wonder if you are willing to work here as an assistant " Hearing this, tears of gratitude welled up in Debbie's eyes, and she held the manager's hands, saying, "I couldn't thank you enough." Due to their help, the whole family felt warmth in the cold weather and believed that there was kindness in every corner of the world.

2. 读后续写步骤如下
(1)精读文章,确定文章线索。每篇文章都有各自独特的写作思路,通过精读文章,找到该篇文章的写作线索,比如是以时间为线索还是以空间为线索等,这样有利于考生"顺藤摸瓜"。
(2)仔细审题,明确续写要求。一般短文后面的"注意"都有对此短文续写的具体要求,如字数限制、使用几处下划线关键词语、续写段落的首句提示,这样考生能做到"心中有数"。
(3)回扣原文,揣摩续写思路。根据文章后面的要求,再次快速回读短文,抓住文章的思路,结合段首的提示语,最终确定续写段落的思路,同时结合文章划线词语提示,确定续写段落的内容。
(4)拟写草稿,修改错词病句。在确定了思路和内容之后,最关键的就是结合提示语或者文中划线的关键词语拟写草稿。拟写时,注意句子结构的多样性、语言的丰富性,并通过句与句之间连接词的正确使用,使上下文连贯。
(5)标出续写部分中使用到的原材料中标有下划线的关键
