Wildlife conservation programs are a great way to get involved in the preservation of endangered species, as well as learn how you can help protect them. If you are a wildlife lover, here are some programs you can choose.
Animal Rescue Project, South Africa
You will be working with experienced conservationists in Cape Town. A significant challenge is to find new homes for homeless dogs and cats. The project comprises two sections: a fully equipped animal hospital and an adoption center focusing on securing new homes. Due to limited funding, the center can only afford a small number of permanent staff, relying heavily on wildlife lovers to assist with daily tasks and provide hands-on care for these animals.
Sea Turtle Conservation Project, Sri Lanka
Recent years have witnessed a significant decline in the sea turtle’s numbers due to numerous commercial fishing. As a wildlife lover, your role extends to supporting hatcheries(孵化场) in their conservation efforts. Additionally, your involvement helps these hatcheries with funds, as we provide a placement fee for each wildlife lover, enabling them to generate additional income.
Wildlife Conservation Program, Australia
You will be engaged in activities such as animal feeding, cleaning, maintenance, and enrichment. This program provides an incredible opportunity to gain firsthand international work experience. For you, this program is an excellent choice. Not only will you contribute to a noble cause, but it also offers a fantastic opportunity to meet people from around the world.
Marine Conservation Program, Bali
You will be working in Tianyar, where the reef is now in a worsening state. The project was initiated to restore and conserve Tianyar’s coral reef, not only to protect its remarkable and delicate ecosystems but also to secure a sustainable future for the residents.
21. What problem does the adoption center meet with
A. Insufficient equipment. B. Insecure surroundings.
C. Shortage of shelters. D. Lack of hands.
22.Which program will offer financial assistance
A. Animal Rescue Project, South Africa.
B. Sea Turtle Conservation Project, Sri Lanka.
C. Wildlife Conservation Program, Australia.
D. Marine Conservation Program, Bali.
23. What is the main purpose of the text
A. To promote program cooperation.
B. To advocate restoring ecosystems.
C. To introduce endangered species protection.
D. To encourage engagement in wildlife preservation.

Users of Google Gemini, the tech giant’s artificial-intelligence model, recently noticed that asking it to create images of Vikings, or German soldiers from 1943 produced surprising results: hardly any of the people depicted were white. Other image-generation tools have been criticized because they tend to show white men when asked for images of entrepreneurs or doctors. Google wanted Gemini to avoid this trap; instead, it fell into another one, depicting George Washington as black. Now attention has moved on to the chatbot’s text responses, which turned out to be just as surprising.
Gemini happily provided arguments in favor of positive action in higher education, but refused to provide arguments against. It declined to write a job ad for a fossil-fuel lobby group (游说团体), because fossil fuels are bad and lobby groups prioritize “the interests of corporations over public well-being”. Asked if Hamas is a terrorist organization, it replied that the conflict in Gaza is “complex”; asked if Elon Musk’s tweeting of memes had done more harm than Hitler, it said it was “difficult to say”. You do not have to be a critic to perceive its progressive bias.
Inadequate testing may be partly to blame. Google lags behind OpenAI, maker of the better-known ChatGPT. As it races to catch up, Google may have cut corners. Other chatbots have also had controversial launches. Releasing chatbots and letting users uncover odd behaviors, which can be swiftly addressed, lets firms move faster, provided they are prepared to weather (经受住) the potential risks and bad publicity, observes Eth an Mollick, a professor at Wharton Business School.
But Gemini has clearly been deliberately adjusted, or “fine-tuned”, to produce these responses. This raises questions about Google’s culture. Is the firm so financially secure, with vast profits from internet advertising, that it feels free to try its hand at social engineering Do some employees think it has not just an opportunity, but a responsibility, to use its reach and power to promote a particular agenda All eyes are now on Google’s boss, Sundar Pichai. He says Gemini is being fixed. But does
Google need fixing too
24．What do the words “this trap” underlined in the first paragraph refer to
A．Having a racial bias. B．Responding to wrong texts.
C．Criticizing political figures. D．Going against historical facts.
25．What is Paragraph 2 mainly about
A．Gemini’s refusal to make progress. B．Gemini’s failure to give definite answers.
C．Gemini’s prejudice in text responses. D．Gemini’s avoidance of political conflicts.
26．What does Eth an Mollick think of Gemini’s early launch
A．Creative. B．Promising. C．Illegal. D．Controversial.
27．What can we infer about Google from the last paragraph
A．Its security is doubted. B．It lacks financial support.
C．It needs further improvement. D．Its employees are irresponsible.
C
We go through life assuming we’re in charge of our own minds —until temptation (诱惑) strikes. Few things better illustrate how little control we really have. You can know exactly what you should do (decline the second slice of cake or the third cocktail), but that hardly seems to matter when the urge arises. More self-discipline is rarely the answer, though. Instead, if you can understand what’s going on inside your head when temptation comes, you’ll be far better placed to make a healthier choice.
Sometimes, you need to push yourself, the idea behind which, in psychology, is to make the better choice the easier choice. (School pupils eat more healthily, it’s been shown, when the salads are within easier reach than the chips.) So, instead of relying on willpower, stop keeping ice creams in your freezer! Use StayFocused or similar apps to block distracting websites. Change your environment, and temptation will be a non-issue.
For every person, behind every bad habit, there's a reasonable desire: some people eat or drink too much because they're lonely, or smoke to get a break from a busy schedule. Once you’ve uncovered this underlying need, find a different way to meet it: call a friend; take a coffee break instead of a cigarette break. There’s nothing wrong with the need—only with the way you’re currently meeting it.
It’s a strange truth that we’ll break all sorts of promises to ourselves— yet most of us would
never fail to show up at a prearranged meeting with a friend. Involve others in your temptation-resistance efforts, whether it's asking someone to check in weekly to see if you’re sticking to your plan, or never going shopping alone if you’re subject to impulse purchases. Best of all, launch a joint plan, in which two of you decide to give up a bad habit. That turns a challenge into a fun game.
28．What does “that” mean in paragraph 1
A．Temptation. B．Self-awareness.
C．Choice. D．Self-motivation.
29．Which should be a good choice if you feel worn out from a packed timetable
A．Exercise strong willpower over it.
B．Keep ice creams within easy reach.
C．Use StayFocused to refresh yourself.
D．Chat with a friend over a cup of coffee.
30．What does the author suggest you do according to paragraph 4
A．Seek partners’ support. B．Leave challenges behind.
C．Keep your promises. D．Say no to playing games.
31．What is the text mainly about
A．What causes temptation. B．How to keep temptation at bay.
C．Why urges set in. D．How to keep life under control.
D
China successfully launched the Chang’e-6 spacecraft on Friday A Long March-5rocket lifted it off from the Wenchang Space Launch Site in Hainan. This was a huge success and a remarkable achievement for China’s space exploration program. The launch not only shows China’s advanced technological abilities but also makes scientists and space lovers around the world excited.
Collecting samples from the far side of the moon is a new thing for humanity. We have very little knowledge about this mysterious side. If the Chang’e-6 mission is successful, it will give scientists important and direct facts to know more about the far side’s environment, geological features, and material make-up. This will be an important step forward in our exploration of the moon and the universe as a whole.
The Chang’e-6 spacecraft has an orbiter, a lander, an ascender (上升器), and a returner. When it reaches the moon, it will land carefully on the far side. Within 48 hours after landing, a robot arm will carefully collect rocks and soil from the lunar surface. Also, a drill will go into the ground to take samples from deeper layers. At the same time, a series of complex scientific tests and analyses will be done to get valuable data.
The far side of the moon is very different from the side we can see. The Apollo basin in the South PoleAitken Basin is chosen as the landing and sampling place for the Chang’e-6 mission. This area is thought to have precious clues about the moon’s formation and development, giving possible ideas about the early history of our celestial (天体) neighbor.
This mission has many technical difficulties and needs the latest technologies. It also gets help from international cooperation, showing the spirit of working together in the global search for space exploration. The exploration of the far side of the moon may provide valuable scientific data and open up new possibilities for future space activities, such as setting up long- term lunar bases and using lunar resources.
The success of the Chang’e-6 mission has the possibility to make more international cooperation in space exploration. It shows China’s strong wish to add to the growth of global knowledge about the universe and encourages other countries to work together to find out the secrets of the universe.
32. What is the main purpose of the Chang’e-6 mission
A. To build a base on the far side of the moon.
B. To study how the moon moves around.
C. To collect and bring back samples from the far side of the moon.
D. To look for water on the moon.
33. Which of the following is true about the far side of the moon
A. It’s different from the side we can see. B. It’s the same as the side we can see.
C. We know a lot about it. D. It has no rocks or soil.
34. What might the exploration of the far side of the moon lead to
A. No change in the future. B. New chances for space activities.
C. Fewer friends for China in space. D. No new technologies.
35. What could be a suitable title for this passage
A. “The Mystery of the Moon”
B. “The Far Side of the Moon: Unknown Territory”
C. “Space Exploration and Challenges”
D. “China’s Chang’e-6 Mission: Unveiling the Secrets of the Moon’s Far Side”

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
There are many customary differences between the West and the East, of which are some of China’s eating habits, which many Westerners would find quite hard to understand. ___36___
Not eating food dropped on a table
I’ve seen the disgust (恶心) in people’s faces here when I’ve dropped food on the table only to then pick it up and eat it. ___37___ Our thought is, “A tabletop has had nothing but food on it. No one walks on it, sits on it or throws garbage on it. Why is it considered so dirty ” We don’t get it.
___38___
Westerners don’t want their food near the floor. Dust, germs, etc. are far more likely to get into the rice. I’ve been in several restaurants and nearly everyone I’ve seen puts their rice cookers on the floor.
Eating dessert before a meal
Every Western child’s dream would be to live in China for the purpose that he/she could eat the dessert before they eat their main meal. I’m not sure about this Western tradition of eating dessert last. In China, it doesn’t matter. ___39___ Westerners would find that very strange.
Drinking hot water with your meal
Often, it has been my experience that many. Chinese will not have a drink (water, tea, etc. ) with a meal. But, when they do, it is usually hot water. ___40___ However, we westerners like cold water or cold drinks.
A. Putting rice cookers on the floor.
B. The following are just some of them
C. Having noodles or rice every day.
D. Americans do eat a lot of hamburgers.
E. You can have ice cream before your meal.

Have you ever heard of and seen Canadian geese Do you know that they ___41___ fresh grass and seeds
Canadian geese have a good ___42___ for their politeness. They always bow down to you whenever you walk by. However, I have recently found that they can sometimes be ___43___ to their peers, especially on occasions when they quarrel for food——yes, these ___44___ gentlemen do quarrel, just for something to eat
Yesterday I witnessed two Canadian Geese arguing ___45___ for a clump(草丛) of beautiful fresh grass. The clump was ___46___ right in the middle of them, while the two were shouting noisily, stretching their necks as long as they could to look aggressively at each other. It’s ___47___ to witness the “impolite” side of Canadian geese. Hence, I couldn’t help ___48___ my morning walk, standing still to watch these “gentlemen” quarreling. Interestingly, after a short while, a truck roared past their feast, disturbing their ___49___ conversation. The two geese were equally ___50___ by the massive “monster”, thus giving up their conversation.
Would they start quarreling again I stood still, ___51___ the ridiculous question and waited. Beyond my expectation, right after the truck’s passing by, the two geese immediately lost their ___52___for quarreling as if they had forgotten all about what had happened. Even the two turned around and left the ___53___ in opposite directions as if nothing had happened. They left only me there, imagining what might have happened without the ___54___.
They got along harmoniously again. Sometimes it’s not that bad to be ___55___.

阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或所给单词的正确形式。
Electric vehicles are currently a part of the car market, which 56 (occupy) mostly by gas-powered cars. But more electric car models will come out in the next few years. Governments, 57 (particular) in European countries and China, are pushing this change 58 (reduce) carbon emissions and fight global warming.
Keeping electric motors charged is cheaper than 59 (buy) gas. But how long does it take to charge an electric vehicle There are several ways to charge electric vehicles and times range from minutes 60 half a day. The slowest way to charge is on a standard 120-volt (伏特) charger, 61 adds just a few miles of range per hour. For trips that involve hundreds of miles in a single day, drivers typically rely on DC fast chargers. These chargers are much more expensive to install, and thus 62 (rare). For would-be buyers, the lengthy charge times can sound alarming. And convincing them to try their first electric vehicle 63 (be) a challenge for the auto industry.
Going electric is not only an eco-friendly goal 64 also a business reality, according to industry analysts. But even if the general path ahead is widely agreed on, 65 speed of the
change is far from clear.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Hearing that one neighbor had just welcomed a new litter, Allen, a 9- year- old boy, rushed to see the newborn cats. However, during his visit, Allen noticed one of the cats wasn’t moving due to disability on its hind (后面的) legs. So while the other little cats were exploring their surroundings, this one stayed behind.
Allen was significantly affected by the scene of this lonesome cat. He returned home and started to wonder whether he could do anything to help. When the boy told his mother about that, the mother recalled a video about pet wheelchairs.
They finally found the video on YouTube, in which an animal lover, Addy, shared a heartwarming and innovative project: building a wheelchair for a pet cat with mobility issues due to a hind- leg injury. As a caring pet owner, Addy took viewers through the DIY process of making a custom wheelchair to aid her cat’s movement and improve its quality of life. She began by measuring the cat and based on the measurements, cut the plastic pipes to make a frame (支架). Then she connected the pipes and attached the wheels to the back end of the frame. Finally, she
added a harness (保护带) to ensure it was fit and comfortable for the cat.
Seeing the cat in the wheelchair moving around happily with the support, Allen thought that would be the best option for the little cat.
But the wheelchair in the video seemed too big and too heavy for a newborn cat. Where could he find the suitable materials
His mother unearthed an old bag from the cupboard, whose belt was just fine for the the harness. As for the frame, they searched the storage room in their house and found an old umbrella, whose frame provided enough thin iron bars that were durable and light. But they were difficult for him to cut off. Allen thought his father could help. However, where could they find the small wheels (320 words)

67. Allen suddenly spotted a familiar item in the corner of the storage room. That was his toy car. There were four small wheels on it! So pleased was Allen that he grasped it immediately. He carefully took off the wheels from the toy car which had accompanied him through his childhood. Now its wheels would aid him to give a helping hand to a poor cat. Allen got all the necessary materials for the wheelchair ready. Then he went to the neighbor’s to measure the cat and came back with the data. His father helped to cut the umbrella frame into several bars and assisted Allen in connecting the components. (97 words)
Together, they built a tiny wheelchair for the little cat. The caring boy was excited and proud when he looked at the wheelchair. It was a joint effort. Holding the little wheelchair, Allen rushed to the neighbor’s. Witnessing the little cat placed in the small wheelchair, Allen was looking forward to the moment that it would move around by itself. As he had expected, the little cat rose to its feet with the support for the hind legs. It did move, though slowly! Seeing this, Allen couldn’t help clapping and jumping with joy. His kindness and creation did make a difference to the little creature.
