Throughout history,literature has been a mirror of society,capturing its evolution,revolutions,conflicts,and ambition.As readers,we often find comfort,inspiration,or severe realities through the world of words.Yet,in the21st century,with a sharp rise in digitalization,literature's canvas(画布)has expanded dramatically,leading to both enthusiasm and worry among literary enthusiasts.
Dr.Elizabeth Montgomery,a famous literary critic and professor at the Langford Literary University,set about an extensive study to decipher(破译)the changing landscape of literature in the digital age.“The printed word has a touchable beauty and permanence.Digital platforms,on the other hand,are vast,changing,and developing.This dichotomy(二分法)is interesting but also challenges traditional literary boundaries,”Montgomery reflected.
Montgomery's study lasted over two years,involving a diverse group of 1,200 participants from various age groups and backgrounds.They were divided into three groups:the first experienced literature only through printed books,the second through e-books,and the third through interactive digital stories,which combine text,graphics,and user interaction.
Feedback revealed diverse insights.Printed book fans valued the sensory experience—the feel of pages,the smell of a book—claiming that it deepened their connection to the content.E-book readers appreciated the convenience and portability but missed the touchable experience of traditional books.However,the third group,who engaged with interactive digital stories,expressed excitement at being part of the story,though some felt it weakened the literary essence.
Further,the study found that interactive stories appealed especially to younger readers,suggesting a potential shift in future literary consumption patterns.Montgomery noted,“While traditionalists might find the digital development of literature disturbing,it's undeniable that the boundary between readers and stories is becoming more foggy.The key is to balance innovation with the preservation of literary integrity.”
24.What was the purpose of Dr.Elizabeth Montgomery's study
A.To promote digital platforms over printed books.
B.To explore the impact of digitalization on literature.
C.To present the landscape of the digital literature.
D.To challenge the traditional literary boundary.
25.What can we learn about the participants who read printed books
A.They found it convenient to carry the books around.
B.They believed the books lacked the literary essence.
C.They thought they were happy to be involved in the story.
D.They felt the sensory experience promoted their understanding.
26.What does the study suggest about the future of literature consumption
A.Traditional books may be preferred by elder people.
B.Digital stories will enjoy equal preference of all ages.
C.Interactive stories may see a rise among younger readers.
D.E-books will replace printed books and dominate the market.
27.What is Montgomery's attitude to the digital development of literature
A.Objective. B.Doubtful. C.Excited. D.Unconcerned.
C
Urban agriculture,the practice of farming within the limits of a city,is becoming increasingly popular worldwide and is considered a way to make cities and urban food systems more sustainable.Despite strong evidence of the social and nutritional benefits of urban agriculture,its carbon footprint remains short of research.
Most previously published studies have focused on high-tech,energy-intensive forms of urban agriculture—such as vertical(垂直的)farms and rooftop greenhouses.The new study aimed to fill some of the knowledge gaps by comparing the carbon footprints of food produced at low-tech urban agriculture sites to conventional crops.
The researchers calculated the greenhouse gas emissions(排放)associated with on-farm materials and activities over the lifetime of the farm.The emissions,expressed in kilograms of carbon dioxide equivalents per serving of food,were then compared to foods raised by conventional methods.
Farmers and gardeners at urban agriculture sites across the world were employed to use daily diary entries to takedown inputs—the materials used to construct farms and cultivate crops—and harvests from their food-growing sites throughout the 2019 season.
“By assessing actual inputs and outputs on urban agriculture sites,we were able to determine climate change impacts each serving of produce,”says study co-lead author Benjamin Goldstein,assistant professor in the School for Environment and Sustainability.On average,food produced through urban agriculture released 0.42 kilograms of carbon dioxide equivalents per serving,six times higher than the 0.07 kg CO equivalents per serving of conventionally grown produce.
It's also found that most of the climate impacts at urban farms are driven by the infrastructure(基础设施),such as the raised beds in which food is grown,or pathways between plots.“These farms typically only operate for a few years,so the greenhouse gases used to produce those materials are not used effectively.Conventional agriculture,instead,is very efficient and hard to compete with,”Goldstein says.“For example,conventional farms often grow asingle crop with the help of pesticides and fertilizers,resulting in larger harvests and a reduced carbon footprint when compared to urban farms,”he says.
28.What is a benefit of urban agriculture
A.Sustainable food supply. B.High food output.
C.Effective energy conservation. D.Low carbon footprint.
29.How is the research data collected
A.By accessing online database. B.By examining previous studies.
C.By conducting personal interviews D.By recording information every day.
30.What could be done to reduce carbon footprint according to Goldstein
A.Increase varieties of crops. B.Extend infrastructure lifetimes.
C.Promote rooftop greenhouses. D.Use modern agriculture facilities.
31.What is the passage mainly about
A.The benefits of traditional crops. B.The popularity of urban agriculture.
C.The strategies to fight global warming. D.The carbon footprint of urban farm produce.
D
What's your first memory Whatever it is,you're bound to treasure it.But can we actually trust it Nothing about memory is simple.Memory is malleable.What we remember is not necessarily what happened.A memory is not a recording.It's more like a dramatic reconstruction and one that we can keep changing without realizing it.
For any experience to be remembered,it has to be encoded(编码).This encoding is not any kind of direct translation,though.It's a rich and complex process that creates associations and meanings.We might be remembering something very similar,but slightly changed and colored by our own sets of associations.
Psychologist Elizabeth Loftus produced groundbreaking research on eyewitness testimony(证据).Her work showed that memories can easily be influenced,even after they've been created.For example,if two eyewitnesses talk with each other,their memories of events often change,absorbing what they've heard from the other one—but they won't realize this has happened.Similarly,witnesses who are shown an image of an innocent person,can sometimes stick it onto their memory of the actual event—a process known as unconscious transference(无意识的转移).It is estimated that around 70%of wrongful convictions(定罪),later overturned by DNA evidence,are due to mistaken eyewitness testimony.
In some cases,memories can even be deliberately created and implanted.The Lost in the Mall experiment took a test group of subjects and talked to them in depth about key childhood memories while also adding an invented one—the experience of having been lost in a shopping center.It was found that between a quarter and a third of subjects not only accepted this new memory as a genuine one but enriched it with specific details.
Most of us have certain key memories of being a very young child.But research suggests that they're highly unlikely to be actual memories due to the way memory is stored in the baby brain.Your precious first memory may well not be a real memory,and we're all perhaps living in our imaginations more than we realize.
32.What does the underlined word“malleable”in Paragraph 1 mean
A.Trustworthy. B.False. C.Easily changed. D.Deeply impressive.
33.Which will influence the memory of eyewitnesses
A.Powerful DNA evidence. B.Pictures stuck in their memory
C.Reduced accuracy of convictions. D.Exchanged information between them.
34.What can we learn about“The Lost in the Mall”experiment
A.It was designed to investigate mistaken eyewitness testimony.
B.Its subjects could recall specific details of a shopping center.
C.Its subjects made believe that they had been lost in a shopping center.
D.It demonstrated that invented experiences could be fixed in one's memory.
35.What can be a suitable title for the text
A.The Unreliable Nature of Memory B.Revised Eyewitness Testimony
C.Reflection on Sweet Childhood D.An Exploration of Truth and Fiction

Many people desire stronger,more authentic friendships as adults.36.How do you skip the awkward chit-chat phase and hit the fast-forward button on a potential friendship I’ve learned a few things.
Give yourself permission to bore people
We all know the safe topics to broach(引入)when you first meet someone.But this tendency to play it safe can delay knowing whether you are compatible(志趣相投的)with a potential friend.37.“What do you think is the best television finale of all time ”This is a great conversation starter as long as it interests you.And if the other person slowly backs away,then you've just saved yourself hours of chatting.
38
Often our friendships feel superficial because they are based on gossip.It's human nature to focus on a third person when we are anxious.We share spicy updates about former classmates with our high school friends,or grab a drink with colleagues and complain about the boss.But a friendship built on gossip can leave both people feeling exhausted and depressed after they hang out.
If a friend starts to give you updates on other people you know,it can be helpful to say,“I want to hear about what's going on with you.”Or you can ask yourself,“What would I share about myself if I were with my best friend right now ”39.
Be curious about who people are,and who they want to be
40.They are also able to share their struggles without fear of judgment.A great way to deepen a friendship is to ask someone“What has been challenging for you since the last year ”or“What's a belief you have that has changed over the course of your life ”These are questions we rarely ask each other,but they reveal so much about who we are,and who we're trying to be.
A.Focus on the gossip
B.Cut back on the gossip
C.Then jump to the heart of things
D.Rather than sticking with superficial chatter,go straight to what excites you
E.True friends strive to know each other's thinking about difficult subjects
F.But the process of building these relationships can prove slow and frustrating
G.Ask yourself what's worth sharing about yourself and knowing about others

第二节(满分25分)
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。
Every Sunday,the competition started.The three of us would set our alarm clocks to wake up earlier than anyone else.I had set my alarm clock to six in the morning,hoping that my brothers wouldn't start before me.Beep.Beep.Beep.Groaning,I reached over to my nightstand and slapped the top of my alarm clock.“Too early on this cold winter day,”I murmured.I curled back into my warm blanket and fell asleep again.
My eyes blinked open to the whirring sound of the vacuum cleaner.“They chose their chores first!”I thought with despair.I jumped up from my bed and rushed to the bathroom,where I started the only chore that was left for me.I would definitely be shoveling(铲)the driveway while they built an igloo(冰屋),I thought cheerlessly,rubbing and wiping madly at the toilet bowl.
When I finished cleaning the toilet and sink,my brothers came into the bathroom to watch me clean the bathtub as they mocked me about how I'd overslept and got stuck with the longest chore.“Whoever finishes last has to shovel the driveway,remember ”my older brother reminded me with a triumphant(胜利的)smile when we put on our big coats and snow pants to go outside.
The three of us stepped outside into the knee-deep snow and shielded our eyes from the brightness.My brothers wasted no time and dashed off to play in the yard,leaving me behind to tackle the frustrating task of shoveling the driveway.With a heavy sigh,I inched through the thick snow to the driveway,my boots sinking with each step.I grunted(嘟哝)with effort as my brothers yelled with joy.Sunday would never be my day,I sighed.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Suddenly,I heard the sound of a shovel rubbing against the driveway concrete.
After we finished,we sat inside the igloo,laughing about our morning adventures.
