When she was six, we flew to the Riviera Maya in Mexico. I was impressed by how cheerfully fearless she was when we swam in cenotes （天然井） or dived along a reef. In Fiji, nine-year-old Maia was attracted by the compassionate （有同情心的） women chiefs we met and decided she wanted to become a leader. During a trip to Sri Lanka when she was 13, she learned how the coin flip of your birth country can affect your opportunities in life.
When we finished up our travels and returned home to Vancouver for her high school education, it shouldn't have come as a surprise to learn that our daughter had other ideas. Maia was thrilled when, after months of interviews, she was awarded a place to finish high school at Waterford Kamhlaba United World College of Southern Africa.
But it was during that first airport goodbye that I realized it was my turn to be left pared to the goofy 17-year-old I'd bid goodbye to, the 21-year-old woman who came home from high school in Africa and, later, from university in France, seemed mature and unfamiliar.

In the past decades, songs have been "losing weight". From 1990 to 2020 or so, the average duration of the top 100 popular songs reduced from over four minutes to about three minutes, reported The Washington Post. In the summer of 2023, Super Shy, a K-pop song by New Jeans, swept TikTok with its uncommonly short duration— two minutes and 34seconds.
What has caused this change The widespread use of TikTok and streaming music media might be the top triggers. It is no exaggeration that these two influences have changed the way hit songs are made and publicized, as well as the way we find music, noted Billboard.
On streaming platforms like Spotify, artists only get paid when their songs are played for 30 seconds or more. The often-skipped songs will be less likely to be recommended by the platform. Therefore, artists try to get their songs played longer to enhance their earnings and visibility （关注度）.
According to research, 25 percent of listeners will skip the song they are listening to in the first five seconds. One theory holds that a concise （简洁的） track is more likely to get more listens. "There's a charm to a short song because the person hits repeat —play it again, play it again, " Mitch Allan, a longtime writer-producer, told Billboard.
On TikTok, however, users prefer even simpler versions of these short songs —snippets（片段）. "To a lot of people, I think the snippet they encounter on TikTok is the song. They rarely have the interest in getting the full picture of the song, not to mention the background or the inspiration behind the song. " said vocal producer Bart Schoudel to Billboard.
This series of changes has also reshaped songwriting. The Guardian reported that research has found lyrics of pop songs are becoming simpler and angrier than ever.
For many, lyrics are a form of literature, weaving imagery and emotion into their content. US songwriter Bob Dylan was even awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature for his lyrics in 2016. With all these changes, will lyrics still be regarded as literature in the future
28．What is the main reason for the songs to "lose weight"
A．People have no time to listen to long songs.
B．Short songs are easier for listeners to understand.
C．Many people have been losing weight nowadays.
D．The TikTok and streaming music media are widely used.
29．Which song is more likely to get more listens according to the passage
A．A song which is simple and short.
B．A song sung by a pop singer.
C．A song often skipped by users.
D．A high-quality song.
30．What is Bart Schoudel's attitude to the snippets on TikTok
A．Supportive. B．Interested. C．Negative. D．Indifferent.
31．Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A．Will Lyrics Be Regarded as Literature
B．Will Music Become Shorter and Shorter
C．The Wide Spread of Streaming Music
D．Pop Songs "Lose Weight" Facing Streaming Media
【答案】28．D
29．A
30．C
31．D

They rarely have the interest in getting the full picture of the song, not to mention the background or the inspiration behind the song. ' said vocal producer Bart Schoudel to Billboard."然而，在TikTok上，用户更喜欢这些短歌曲的更简单版本——片段。"对很多人来说，我认为他们在TikTok上看到的片段就是歌曲。他们很少有兴趣了解歌曲的全貌，更不用说歌曲背后的背景或灵感了。声乐制作人巴特·斯库德尔对《公告牌》说。可知，Bart Schoudel对TikTok上的片段持消极的态度。故选C。
31．考查标题归纳。通读全文可知，本文报道了近年来流行歌曲时长缩短的趋势及其原因，主要归因于TikTok和流媒体平台的影响。歌手为了提高播放率和收益，倾向于制作更短的歌曲。这种变化不仅影响了歌曲的制作和推广方式，还导致歌词变得更为简单和愤怒。文章最后提出了一个问题，即在这些变革下，未来歌词是否还会被视为文学的一部分，可推知，"流行歌曲‘减肥'来面对流媒体"适合作本文标题 。故选D。

When Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield looked at Earth, tears formed in his left eye. Within minutes, using the bridge of his nose like a waterfall, the tears spilled into his right eye, until he couldn't see. Fear should have paralyzed （使……不知所措） Hadfield since he was blind in space. Instead, Hadfield assessed his surroundings, evaluated the risk, trusted his training, and continued his spacewalk. Back in the spacecraft, he realized that an anti-fog solution （防雾液） had stimulated his eyes. Luckily, they were fine after a good cleaning. Hadfield returned to Earth with first-hand experience of space psychology in action.
Space psychology, a vital long-term field of study at NASA （美国宇航局）, which refers to applying psychology to human spaceflight, is gaining special importance as humans prepare for long-distance space travel. Clearly, space psychology matters on the journey to the Moon, Mars and beyond. But it can also help humans greatly as we meet challenges in our lives. According to Hadfield, we can learn from astronauts who practice what goes wrong and right, with the following suggestions.
In the language system used by NASA, attitude refers to a spacecraft's positioning in3D space. To reach a destination, the spacecraft must be pointed in the right direction. They must have the correct "attitude". Hadfield suggests that we view life the way NASA plans missions: with an attitude. Unexpected factors may change your path, but with the proper mindset, they won't change your course.
And, he classifies team members into three groups: Plus-ones （the high-performers）, Zeroes and Minus-ones （Liabilities 惹麻烦的人）. Hadfield encourages people to be Zeroes because they listen, learn, and contribute without conflict. Zeroes help build consensus（共识）in a group and have the potential to be plus-one performers.
Meanwhile, Hadfield said it's important for astronauts to pay attention to even the small things as ignoring them could be dangerous. We can overcome our fears by learning as much as we can about them. So, we should prepare for situations that we know will make us anxious. Hadfield also suggests that we imagine what could go wrong as a way to be better prepared.
32．What's the purpose of mentioning Chris Hadfield's space experience in the first paragraph
A．To explain how astronauts work in space.
B．To bring up the topic of space psychology.
C．To attract readers to know more about spacewalk.
D．To show Hadfield's excellent performance in space.
33．Why does the author think space psychology is important to us
A．Space psychology can greatly help us deal with life challenges.
B．Without space psychology, we couldn't get to the Moon, Mars and beyond.
C．With space psychology, our course won't be changed by unexpected factors.
D．Equipped with space psychology, astronauts can deal with any emergency calmly.
34．What kind of person does the underlined word "Zeroes" refer to in paragraph 4
A．The average-performers.
B．Those who achieve nothing.
C．Capable workers who don't cause problems.
D．Those who are always popular and get along well with others.
35．What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A．It is easy for astronauts to ignore small things.
B．If you know well enough about fears, you will not feel anxious.
C．To get fully prepared, it is the best way to imagine what could go wrong.
D．It's important to focus on the small details and get ready for anxious situations.
【答案】32．B

Whether it's gas, food, clothing, cars, furniture, water, toys, electronics or other goods, we are all consumers. The key is not to stop consuming, but to start being mindful of our consumption habits and how each purchase or action affects the ecosystem. 　36． 　.
Consume less
Limiting consumption can have a huge impact on the environment. The three "Rs" —reduce, reuse and recycle —get a lot of attention. However, the planet could benefit from some focus on the most important and most underrepresented "R": refuse. When you refuse, you say "no", which is not always easy. 　37． 　 , think about whether it would truly improve your life. If not, it's OK to just say, "No, thanks! "
Walk, bike or carpool
According to the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency （EPA）, a typical passenger vehicle emits about 4. 6 metric tons of carbon dioxide per year. Any amount of that we can cut back on will help. 　38． 　 . If travelling on foot or two wheels isn't feasible （可行的）, try carpooling with a friend, neighbor or coworker to a mutual destination.
　39． 　
Get creative with your useless or unwanted items by upcycling —basically, turning trash into treasure. Creating something new such as artwork, toys or jewelry is both satisfying and one of the best ways to protect the environment. Not only does it keep items out of the trash, it can prevent having to purchase new items, which require lots of resources to produce. Children love making things; so instead of heading to the craft store, check out your recycle bin first and let their imaginations soar!
Use your purchasing power for good
The positive thing about being a consumer is that we have the power to choose where we spend our hard-earned dollars. 　40． 　 . Spend it wisely on goods, services and experiences that leave a smaller carbon footprint. Choose to do business with companies that support sustainability efforts, utilize renewable energy sources and walk the walk when it comes to protecting the environment.
A. Upcycle more
B. Recycle properly
C. If you want to consume less or recycle a used item
D. Here are several ways you can start to protect the environment
E. Think of your money as your voice and your vote for a cleaner planet

Jacob had always admired firefighters. Their bravery and dedication to saving lives inspired him. He dreamed of becoming one himself someday. One evening, as he was walking home from his part-time job at the local grocery store, he noticed smoke billowing（涌出） from a house down the street. Without thinking twice, he ran towards the house.
As he got closer, he could hear the crackling of flames and the faint sound of someone calling for help. Jacob's heart raced. He knew he had to act fast. He pulled out his phone and dialed 911, giving them the address and details. Then, he took a deep breath and decided to go inside.
Jacob pushed the front door and opened it with his shoulder. The thick smoke made it hard to see, but he could make out the shape of a woman at the top of the stairs. "Help! My daughter is upstairs! " she cried.
Jacob covered his mouth with his sleeve as he made his way up the stairs. The heat was intense, and the smoke stung（刺痛） his eyes, but he pressed on. He found the little girl hiding under her bed. "It's okay," he said, "I'm here to help you." He gently pulled her out and carried her down the stairs.
As they reached the bottom, the firefighters arrived. Jacob handed the girl to her mother, who hugged him tightly, tears streaming down her face. "Thank you, you saved my daughter's life."
Jacob stayed with the family until the firefighters declared the house safe. He watched as they worked tirelessly to put out the fire and ensure it didn't spread to neighboring homes. The mother and daughter were taken to the hospital for a check-up, but they would be okay. As Jacob walked home that night, he couldn't shake the feeling of pride and responsibility that had settled over him. He had faced a dangerous situation and had made a difference.
Over the next few days, news of Jacob's bravery spread throughout the community, and even astonished the mayor.

Jacob couldn't believe it; he had only done what he felt was right. On the day of the ceremony, he put on his best clothes and made his way to the hall, feeling both nervous and excited. His family and friends were there to support him, their faces beaming with pride.
Jacob stood proudly in front of his community, receiving the award for bravery. The mayor handed him a medal, and the audience erupted in applause. "Jacob showed us what true courage looks like, " the mayor said. "In the face of danger, he acted selflessly and saved a life. " Jacob's heart swelled with pride and humility.

I tried to tell her that someday she'd understand the appeal of travel. But as my husband, Evan, pulled her off my leg so I could leave, I wondered if my solo trips would be worth the effort of going without her.
Returning home after a few days away, I felt energized and inspired. Mai a was happy to hear about my trip. But this was the age of learning about compromises. As in: "You have to wear a coat, but we'll compromise and you can choose which one. "She told me I could keep going on trips for work— but we'd compromise: she'd come with me.
When she was six, we flew to the Riviera Maya in Mexico. I was impressed by how cheerfully fearless she was when we swam in cenotes （天然井） or dived along a reef. In Fiji, nine-year-old Maia was attracted by the compassionate （有同情心的） women chiefs we met and decided she wanted to become a leader. During a trip to Sri Lanka when she was 13, she learned how the coin flip of your birth country can affect your opportunities in life.
When we finished up our travels and returned home to Vancouver for her high school education, it shouldn't have come as a surprise to learn that our daughter had other ideas. Maia was thrilled when, after months of interviews, she was awarded a place to finish high school at Waterford Kamhlaba United World College of Southern Africa.
But it was during that first airport goodbye that I realized it was my turn to be left pared to the goofy 17-year-old I'd bid goodbye to, the 21-year-old woman who came home from high school in Africa and, later, from university in France, seemed mature and unfamiliar.

In the past decades, songs have been "losing weight". From 1990 to 2020 or so, the average duration of the top 100 popular songs reduced from over four minutes to about three minutes, reported The Washington Post. In the summer of 2023, Super Shy, a K-pop song by New Jeans, swept TikTok with its uncommonly short duration— two minutes and 34seconds.
What has caused this change The widespread use of TikTok and streaming music media might be the top triggers. It is no exaggeration that these two influences have changed the way hit songs are made and publicized, as well as the way we find music, noted Billboard.
On streaming platforms like Spotify, artists only get paid when their songs are played for 30 seconds or more. The often-skipped songs will be less likely to be recommended by the platform. Therefore, artists try to get their songs played longer to enhance their earnings and visibility （关注度）.
According to research, 25 percent of listeners will skip the song they are listening to in the first five seconds. One theory holds that a concise （简洁的） track is more likely to get more listens. "There's a charm to a short song because the person hits repeat —play it again, play it again, " Mitch Allan, a longtime writer-producer, told Billboard.
On TikTok, however, users prefer even simpler versions of these short songs —snippets（片段）. "To a lot of people, I think the snippet they encounter on TikTok is the song. They rarely have the interest in getting the full picture of the song, not to mention the background or the inspiration behind the song. " said vocal producer Bart Schoudel to Billboard.
This series of changes has also reshaped songwriting. The Guardian reported that research has found lyrics of pop songs are becoming simpler and angrier than ever.
For many, lyrics are a form of literature, weaving imagery and emotion into their content. US songwriter Bob Dylan was even awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature for his lyrics in 2016. With all these changes, will lyrics still be regarded as literature in the future
28．What is the main reason for the songs to "lose weight"
A．People have no time to listen to long songs.
B．Short songs are easier for listeners to understand.
C．Many people have been losing weight nowadays.
D．The TikTok and streaming music media are widely used.
29．Which song is more likely to get more listens according to the passage
A．A song which is simple and short.
B．A song sung by a pop singer.
C．A song often skipped by users.
D．A high-quality song.
30．What is Bart Schoudel's attitude to the snippets on TikTok
A．Supportive. B．Interested. C．Negative. D．Indifferent.
31．Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A．Will Lyrics Be Regarded as Literature
B．Will Music Become Shorter and Shorter
C．The Wide Spread of Streaming Music
D．Pop Songs "Lose Weight" Facing Streaming Media

When Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield looked at Earth, tears formed in his left eye. Within minutes, using the bridge of his nose like a waterfall, the tears spilled into his right eye, until he couldn't see. Fear should have paralyzed （使……不知所措） Hadfield since he was blind in space. Instead, Hadfield assessed his surroundings, evaluated the risk, trusted his training, and continued his spacewalk. Back in the spacecraft, he realized that an anti-fog solution （防雾液） had stimulated his eyes. Luckily, they were fine after a good cleaning. Hadfield returned to Earth with first-hand experience of space psychology in action.
Space psychology, a vital long-term field of study at NASA （美国宇航局）, which refers to applying psychology to human spaceflight, is gaining special importance as humans prepare for long-distance space travel. Clearly, space psychology matters on the journey to the Moon, Mars and beyond. But it can also help humans greatly as we meet challenges in our lives. According to Hadfield, we can learn from astronauts who practice what goes wrong and right, with the following suggestions.
In the language system used by NASA, attitude refers to a spacecraft's positioning in3D space. To reach a destination, the spacecraft must be pointed in the right direction. They must have the correct "attitude". Hadfield suggests that we view life the way NASA plans missions: with an attitude. Unexpected factors may change your path, but with the proper mindset, they won't change your course.
And, he classifies team members into three groups: Plus-ones （the high-performers）, Zeroes and Minus-ones （Liabilities 惹麻烦的人）. Hadfield encourages people to be Zeroes because they listen, learn, and contribute without conflict. Zeroes help build consensus（共识）in a group and have the potential to be plus-one performers.
Meanwhile, Hadfield said it's important for astronauts to pay attention to even the small things as ignoring them could be dangerous. We can overcome our fears by learning as much as we can about them. So, we should prepare for situations that we know will make us anxious. Hadfield also suggests that we imagine what could go wrong as a way to be better prepared.
32．What's the purpose of mentioning Chris Hadfield's space experience in the first paragraph
A．To explain how astronauts work in space.
B．To bring up the topic of space psychology.
C．To attract readers to know more about spacewalk.
D．To show Hadfield's excellent performance in space.
33．Why does the author think space psychology is important to us
A．Space psychology can greatly help us deal with life challenges.
B．Without space psychology, we couldn't get to the Moon, Mars and beyond.
C．With space psychology, our course won't be changed by unexpected factors.
D．Equipped with space psychology, astronauts can deal with any emergency calmly.
34．What kind of person does the underlined word "Zeroes" refer to in paragraph 4
A．The average-performers.
B．Those who achieve nothing.
C．Capable workers who don't cause problems.
D．Those who are always popular and get along well with others.
35．What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A．It is easy for astronauts to ignore small things.
B．If you know well enough about fears, you will not feel anxious.
C．To get fully prepared, it is the best way to imagine what could go wrong.
D．It's important to focus on the small details and get ready for anxious situations.

Children love making things; so instead of heading to the craft store, check out your recycle bin first and let their imaginations soar!
Use your purchasing power for good
The positive thing about being a consumer is that we have the power to choose where we spend our hard-earned dollars. 　40． 　 . Spend it wisely on goods, services and experiences that leave a smaller carbon footprint.

Jacob had always admired firefighters. Their bravery and dedication to saving lives inspired him. He dreamed of becoming one himself someday. One evening, as he was walking home from his part-time job at the local grocery store, he noticed smoke billowing（涌出） from a house down the street. Without thinking twice, he ran towards the house.
As he got closer, he could hear the crackling of flames and the faint sound of someone calling for help. Jacob's heart raced. He knew he had to act fast. He pulled out his phone and dialed 911, giving them the address and details. Then, he took a deep breath and decided to go inside.
Jacob pushed the front door and opened it with his shoulder. The thick smoke made it hard to see, but he could make out the shape of a woman at the top of the stairs. "Help! My daughter is upstairs! " she cried.
Jacob covered his mouth with his sleeve as he made his way up the stairs. The heat was intense, and the smoke stung（刺痛） his eyes, but he pressed on. He found the little girl hiding under her bed. "It's okay," he said, "I'm here to help you." He gently pulled her out and carried her down the stairs.
As they reached the bottom, the firefighters arrived. Jacob handed the girl to her mother, who hugged him tightly, tears streaming down her face. "Thank you, you saved my daughter's life."
Jacob stayed with the family until the firefighters declared the house safe. He watched as they worked tirelessly to put out the fire and ensure it didn't spread to neighboring homes. The mother and daughter were taken to the hospital for a check-up, but they would be okay. As Jacob walked home that night, he couldn't shake the feeling of pride and responsibility that had settled over him. He had faced a dangerous situation and had made a difference.

【解析】【听力原文】 Water pollution has been a serious global problem that affects not only oceans but also lakes and rivers. The River Thames in England has been no exception. Recently, a new device has been used to address the problem. On 14th March ahead of Global Recycling Day on 18thMarch, a robotic shark called the WasteShark was launched in the River Thames, where it collected around 500 kg of plastic waste in one day. It was developed by a company based in the Netherlands. Richard Hardiman, creator of the WasteShark, said the idea came about after he saw two men struggle to catch rubbish from their boat in his home city of Cape Town, South Africa. He thought there might be a more effective way and invented the WasteShark. This device can travel for eight hours on a single charge. It produces no carbon, noise, or light pollution as it travels. The waste that is collected is brought back to land to be sorted and then recycled or disposed of. Richard's final goal is to have millions of WasteSharks in water across the world. "I am not against plastic. It's all about how to recycle plastic even better. " He said.
