The Scientist I Admire Most
Dear fellow students,
Today, I’m honored to introduce the scientist I admire most- Yuan Longping.
Known as the “father of hybrid rice”/a pioneer in agriculture, Yuan Longping worked tirelessly and selflessly his entire life in the battle against food poverty, feeding millions of people both at home and abroad.
What impresses me most about Yuan Longping is his dogged determination and profound humility. Faced with technical obstacles and questions from the scientific community, Yuan remained steadfast in his pursuit, successfully developing the first hybrid rice in the world. His innovation brought him great celebrity and money. However, Yuan Longping, despite receiving numerous awards, still considered himself a farmer, bending down to work the land. He even made large donations to support agricultural research.
Needless to say, Yuan Longping’s life serves as an inspiration to us all, reminding us of the power of dedication and the precious virtues of modesty.
Thank you for your listening. That’s all.

The moment Ava walked in, her parents greeted her with a smile. Ava was consumed by guilt, her eyes brimming with tears and her heart racing with anxiety.Taking a deep breath, she mustered up the courage and confessed in a trembling voice, "I lost my phone at the movies."Her parents' smiles faded, replaced by looks of concern and disappointment. "Have you checked everywhere Did you ask the receptionist " Mom inquired tentatively.Seeing Ava blush and duck her head, her parents exchanged a meaningful look and let out a soft sigh."Come on, let's see if we can get your phone back," said her father, patting her shoulder reassuringly.
Then her parents drove Ava back to the cinema. The car was enveloped in a deep silence, the gravity of the situation weighing heavily on Ava. Upon arriving at the theater, they tirelessly searched every corner, inquired with the staff, and checked the lost and found, but in vain. Ava was on the verge of despair when a cleaner at the cinema rang to inform her that she had found the phone. Before Ava could feel overjoyed, her mind raced with concerns that her parents might lose faith in her, withdrawing her phone privileges. So when her father placed the phone into her palm again, she felt not merely forgiveness and trust, but also a profound sense of responsibility.

M: The Ministry of Education released a notice that restricts primary and middle school students from carrying mobile phones to school. The policy aims to improve students’ focus on study and fight addiction to the Internet and games. According to a 2020 report by the China Internet Network Information Center, China had 175 million Internet users under the age of 18. This is worrying, as long-time use of smart phones harms children’s eyesight, cervical vertebrae and even the brain, according to the World Health Organization.
So many schools have taken measures to limit students’ phone use on campus now. Zhou Dandan, an English teacher in Beijing said, “Before the new regulation, many students played games during class. Most students lack self-discipline. Spending too much time on the phone will distract them and prevent them from learning.” And Li Jisen, an 18-year-old student, agreed with the new policy.
However, Liu Yanping, the principal, said, “It’s unwise to take a ‘one size fits all’ approach. You can’t simply cut students off from the Internet in the digital era.” And Kathy Chen, a parent from Shanghai, allowed her daughter to take her phone to school. Chen said it’s more important to cultivate kids’ ability to self-manage and form good habits of phone usage.
As for me, I think all the arguments mentioned above are reasonable. I’m not sure what to say about this policy. If you want to know more about different opinions, please subscribe to our WeChat official account.

Having spent more than a decade on the dance floor, ROME-Niccolo Filippi, a
23-year-old Italian dance performer, recently decided to explore Chinese culture and its
traditional dance forms and believes that this experience will not only boost his career,
but also broaden his horizons beyond the world of dance.
His interest in diversifying his skills grew after he stumbled upon a short video of
traditional Chinese-styled dance on YouTube. “I saw it as an art that combines tradition
and modernity, which was mostly the reason why I liked it,” says Filippi.
Ever since, he has been closely following Chinese dance performers and watching
numerous videos to learn more about the traditional style that he admires. “I prefer the
traditional style because of its light movements. It also reflects my personality with
elegance,” he adds.
Filippi’s chance came when he was invited to perform for a Chinese New Year
celebration in the central Italian city of Florence. He has since fully committed himself
to the art form, learning several pieces and putting his newfound passion into practice.
第 3页,共 10页
“The biggest difference that I found (compared to other disciplines) is the change
of mood and emotional expressions among dances,” says Filippi, adding that he needed
to shift from the dynamic moves of hip-hop to the graceful and fluid movements of
Chinese dance. Despite various obstacles, Filippi’s efforts have not gone unnoticed.
Two of his friends shared videos of his performances on social media, and the response
was overwhelming. One video garnered 500,000 views, while the other received
200,000 views.
Filippi believes that learning about different cultures is priceless, and he sees it as
a means of personal growth. “I like to think of a person as a book,” he says.
“Embracing different traditions and cultures, such as Chinese culture and many others,
is like adding new chapters to my book, making it more diverse and wonderful.”
24. What is the main reason why Filippi falls in love with traditional Chinese dance
A. Its potential to boost his career.
B. Its mix of traditional and modern elements.
C. Its graceful and light movements.
D. Its true reflection of his elegant personality.
25. How does the author illustrate the popularity of Filippi’s videos
A. By listing numbers. B. By giving an example.
C. By sharing a story. D. By making a comparison.
26. What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A. Filippi thinks little of learning from other cultures.
B. People prefer to write down their past experiences.
C. Accepting various cultures boosts personal growth.
D. A book with chapters on traditions is more wonderful.
27. What is the main idea of the passage
A. Chinese-styled dance videos go viral on social media.
B. An Italian’s dance journey towards specialization starts.
C. Filippi’s desire for Chinese culture extends beyond dance.
D. An Italian dancer shows passion for Chinese-styled dance.

Mosquitoes carry malaria, which kills thousands of people each year. Now some
researchers are trying to use genetic engineering to make the annoying insects into
partners in the fight against the disease.
For years, public health officials have tried to limit the disease by controlling
mosquito populations. “But that approach is temporary,” says Anthony James, a
professor of biology and genetics at the University of California, Irvine, “Because
mosquitoes are extremely tough little insects, and their populations can quickly
rebound.”
Therefore, James and his colleagues want to try a different approach: making
mosquitoes themselves into malaria - fighting warriors, which is a complete departure
第 4页,共 10页
from traditional ways of controlling malaria.
To understand how it works, it helps to understand the life cycle of malaria. The
malaria pathogen (病原体 ) is a parasite (寄生虫 ) that grows inside humans. It’s
passed via mosquitoes that move from person to person, sucking blood. “If we can
make the mosquitoes difficult for the pathogens to survive, we can wipe out the
disease,” he says. But making mosquitoes uninviting to malaria is a tough job.
To solve the problem, the team used a gene-editing technique called CRISPR.
They started with genes from mice, whose immune systems do fight human malaria,
engineered those genes, and then gave them to the mosquitoes.
It turned out the malaria - fighting antibodies which gene-edited mosquitoes
produced worked very well. They reduced the number of parasites in the mosquito
before they were passed to a human host.
James’ team are now working on planning a field trial, which he hopes could be
conducted on an island or in another isolated location.
But genetically changing wild animals does not sit well with environmentalists.
“There’s no need to engineer a mosquito,” says Dana Perls, senior program manager
for the emerging technology program at the non-profit Friends of the Earth. Perls
points out that naturally occurring methods for reducing malaria appear to be showing
promise, as does a new vaccine (疫苗 ) against the disease. “Why take unnecessary
risks and release a species that can’t be recalled once it’s released into the wild ” she
asks.
28. What can we know from the second and third paragraphs
A. Mosquitoes reproduce quickly.
B. Mosquitoes depart from malaria.
C. Mosquitoes are malaria-fighting warriors.
D. Mosquitoes’ populations are under control.
29. According to the text, which of the following are attractive to the malaria
pathogen
A. Mice. B. Parasites. C. Mosquitoes. D. Gene-edited mosquitoes.
30. What is environmentalists’ attitude toward this new approach
A. Tolerant. B. Favorable. C. Objective. D. Disapproving.
31. What is the best title for the text
A. Limiting Malaria by Controlling Mosquito Populations
B. Controlling Malaria by editing Mosquitoes’ genes
C. Curing Malaria with Gene-edited Mosquitoes
D. Preventing Malaria with a new vaccine

One day I typed into ChatGPT all about my upset feelings and it instantly
responded, offering a list of practical advice. Nowadays millions of people are already
turning to ChatGPT and specialist therapy ( 治 疗 ) chatbots for convenient and
第 5页,共 10页
inexpensive mental health support.
Some experts say this is a boon. After all, Al, undisturbed by embarrassment and
burnout, might be able to express empathy (同理心) more openly and tirelessly than
humans. But others worry about the consequences of people seeking emotional
support from machines that can only pretend to care. Some even wonder if the rise of
so-called empathetic Al might change the way we interact with one another. Indeed,
empathy is one of our species’ defining qualities, developing as it did in pace with
social interaction.
One recent analysis about empathy looked at 52 studies published between 1980
and 2019, which shows that the empathiser must first be able to recognize how the
other person is feeling. They must also be affected by those emotions and differentiate
between themselves and the other person, grasping that the other person's feelings
aren't their own while still being able to imagine their experience.
On the first point, in recent years, Al-powered chatbots have made progress in
their ability to read human emotions, most powered by large language models (LLMs)
that work by predicting which words are most likely to appear together based on
training data. In this way, LLMs like ChatGPT can seemingly identify our feelings
and respond appropriately most of the time. But when it comes to the other criteria, Al
still misses the mark in many ways.
Empathy is interpersonal, with continued feedback helping to perfect the
empathiser’s response, which also requires some degree of intuitive ( 直 觉 的 )
awareness of an individual and their situation.
All of this helps to explain conversations like the ones I had with ChatGPT. At
the end of the day, despite talking to multiple chatbots online, I did what I knew I had
to do all along: I picked up my phone and called a friend.
32. What does the underlined word “boon” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Trap. B. Prize. C. Blessing. D. Challenge.
33. What does the recent analysis show about empathy
A. It calls for clear communication. B. It starts with emotion identification.
C. It rules out individual difference. D. It depends on rich imagination.
34. What can Al do according to paragraph 4
A. Provide data-driven feedback. B. Recognize one’s real desire.
C. Update large language models. D. Predict one’s behavior by intuition.
35. What does the author think of ChatGPT
A. Its development should be sped up.
B. Its intelligence is winning more favor.
C. Its application should be strictly managed.
D. Its artificial kindness is no match for humans’.

Holidays abroad are easier than ever thanks to smartphones. With the autumn
weather fast approaching, it’s the perfect time of year to jet off and get away from
hustles and bustles. 36 Here are some top tips to make sure you’re not caught
out on your break abroad.
Treat yourself to a power bank
The batteries inside our phones are typically designed to last for around a day of
moderate usage. 37 So you’re going to want some extra support so you don’t
end up going AWOL (absent without leave) when your phone dies. That’s why I
recommend picking up a USB power bank, which will give you a little bit of extra
juice to keep you connected to the rest of the world.
Enable Data roaming (漫游)
38 The good news is that it is easier than ever to stay connected to the net
when abroad. Make sure you check with your network provider what your roaming
plan is. In many countries it is straightforward to buy a SIM card for a local network,
with a much more generous data allowance. 39 If you’ve got a newer phone, it
will probably support “eSIM”—where you can simply use an app like Holafly or
Airalo while connected to wifi to set yourself up on a new network temporarily.

And finally, you need to get your apps in order. Once you reach your destination
you’ll need a mapping app, and maybe even a translation app—Apple and Google
make their own version of both. And modern translation apps are particularly exciting.
40 Then you get a clear translation. Make sure that all of the critical data is
downloaded so that apps work offline and you can travel the world like a local. Bon
voyage!

Jianbing is one of China’s most popular street breakfasts. Every neighborhood
has its own Jianbing vendor (摊贩 ) serving breakfast 56 dawn through
mid-morning, satisfying hungry 57 (local) on their way to work.
Contrary to 58 you might think, Jianbing is no grab-and-go street breakfast.
To preserve the crispness (酥脆) of the pancake, the vendors never cook Jianbing in
advance, so waiting in a line is part of the culture. But 59 (basic), Jianbing is a
breakfast worth waiting for.

Jianbing has a longer history than almost any other Chinese street food. It is
thought to have originated in Shandong Province during the Three Kingdoms
Period, 60 military strategist Zhuge Liang had his soldiers cook food on shields
(盾) 61 (hold) over the fire.
Of course, if Jianbing were that easy to make, it would have taken the world by
storm long before now. Part of 62 challenge of copying the dish is that the
recipe for a Jianbing differs from region to region, and even from vendor to vendor.
Many consider it 63 (possible) to make your own Jianbing without months of
practice and tuition from a master. Yet a few committed foreigners have made it,
who 64 (inspire) to bring Jianbing to a hungry audience after their first taste in
China back in the 1980s. In the UK, twins Melissa and Oliver Fu, owners of Mei
Mei’s Street Cart are bringing the joys of Jianbing first to London and now
Manchester despite all the difficulty they have in 65 (perfect) their technique.

Ava, a fifth-grader, longed for a cell phone like her peers but had to wait until she
was thirteen. To persuade her parents, she penned an essay, demonstrating she was
mature enough for a cell phone. Her parents, impressed, gave her an old phone.
“Ava,” her dad said seriously, “a cell phone isn’t just for fun and games. It’s a
significant responsibility. You must keep your phone secure. You must silence it in
public spaces. You must…” He listed all of the ways that she had to be responsible
with her phone. But Ava, too busy with choosing the perfect wallpaper, downloading
apps, and chatting with her best friend Sarah, only half-listened.
Over the weekend, Sarah’s mom took the girls to a movie. Normally Ava avoided
horror films, but Sarah’s pleading words with funny memes (表情包) had somehow
convinced Ava that the movie might actually be enjoyable. Before the movie started,

Sarah’s mom instructed the girls to silence their phones out of respect for others. As
the movie’s tension built, Ava found herself growing increasingly uncomfortable. “I
need to go to the bathroom,” Ava whispered to Sarah.
After the movie, while waiting for Sarah’s mom to fetch the car, Ava felt a
sinking feeling. “I can’t find my phone!” she shrieked, patting down all of her pockets.
Panic-stricken, Ava searched her bag, yet her phone seemed to have disappeared. Ava
got into the car, her stomach in knots.
“Are you going to tell your parents ” Sarah whispered to Ava on their ride back.
Ava was silent, her mind racing with the consequences. She could envision her
parents’ disappointed faces and harsh words. She feared that this incident might lead
to her parents taking away the privilege of having a phone altogether.
As they arrived, Ava climbed out of the car and trudged home, her heart heavy
with what had happened.
