2、 In today’s digital age, children are exposed to a number of datafication (数据化) risks, including harmful profiling, micro-targeting and behavioural control.
Digital monitoring-based technologies enable parents to restrict, monitor or track children’s online activities. Popular apps such as Life 360, Google Family Link and Apple Maps, are widespread. However, such approaches have limited effectiveness in keeping children out of the boundaries of the digital space or reducing screen time usage. Meanwhile, the risks associated with these approaches emerge, such as their potential to affect family trust relationships or prevent the development of children’s self-regulation skills. With modern families increasingly struggling with their children’s relationship with digital technologies and lack of effective and clear guidance for them, new approaches are urgently needed.
It is for this reason that Computer Science researchers working on the Oxford Martin Programme on Ethical Web and Data Architectures developed the KOALA Hero Toolkit. It has been co-developed with families and children by Oxford researchers over several years in response to increasing concerns from families about the risks associated with extensive use of the digital technologies.
The toolkit has several key features. By providing families with insights into datafication risks, i. e. how children’s data may be collected and processed, and used to affect what they see online, the toolkit enables families to make informed decisions about their online activities. Through both a digital and physical component, and the provision of interactive activities and discussion sheets, the toolkit facilitates meaningful conversations between children and parents, promoting a deeper understanding of digital privacy and ethics (道德) . By providing worksheets that guide conversations and interactions with the toolkit among family members, with both children and parents involved in the learning process, the toolkit strengthens the family bonds and promotes collective problem-solving.
By assessing the toolkit with 17 families, involving 23 children aged 10-14, we found positive indications for our approach to encouraging active family engagement, instead of focusing on controls and monitoring. We hope to work with a larger sample to make it more adaptable before sharing the toolkit on popular app stores.
【小题1】What do we know about digital monitoring-based technologies
【小题2】What is special about the toolkit
【小题3】What may the researchers do next
【小题4】What may be the best title
3、 As China’s cities grow, they are also sinking. An estimated 16 percent of the country’s major cities are losing more than 10 millimeters of height per year and nearly half are losing more than 3 millimeters per year, according to a new study published in the journal Science.
“Land subsidence (下沉) is a problem that almost exists everywhere,” said Robert Nicholls, a climate scientist and civil engineer at the University of East Anglia who reviewed the paper, “To my knowledge, this study is the first to measure land subsidence across many urban areas using state-of-the-art radar (雷达) data from satellites. I believe the majority of the adaptation strategies that we have, and the plans to fight climate change, are inaccurate, just because they did not include land subsidence. Land subsidence is an unheeded problem. It hasn’t been studied the way, for example, sea level rise has been studied.”
The new study was based on satellite radar measurements of how much the ground surface in 82 major cities, accounting for three-quarters of the urban population, moved up or down between 2015 and 2022. The researchers compared these measurements to data on potential contributing factors. Subsidence in these cities is caused in part by the pure weight of buildings, the study found. Groundwater extraction (开采) underneath the cities also plays a role, as do oil drilling and coal mining. These activities leave empty space underground where soil and rocks can press together or collapse.
Being below sea level doesn’t mean a city is automatically destroyed. Much of the Netherlands is below sea level and sinking, but the country has been extensively engineered to prevent flooding in places and to accommodate it in others. Shanghai is already limiting groundwater extraction and is sinking more slowly than other cities. In Japan, groundwater management over the years has proved successful. “It’s difficult to stop subsidence entirely,” Dr. Nicholls said, “You’ve got to live with what’s left. “
【小题1】What do the figures in paragraph 1 imply
【小题2】Which of the following can replace the underlined word “unheeded” in paragraph 2
【小题3】What may contribute to land subsidence in cities according to the passage
【小题4】What can be inferred from the last paragraph
4、 Our friends Nick and Carol moved to Australia in 2017. My husband and I finally saved up enough money to visit them in Sydney.
From the very first day, I had this feeling that here was a place where I could imagine fitting in. We had left England in the cold and rain, and arrived to find Sydney warm and sunny. We spent our days relaxing on the beach, or going into the city to explore. 【小题1】 Going back home to England after our trip was really hard. That winter felt very long and cold, and all I could think of was the warm sunshine and big open spaces of Australia. In England, we both worked long hours to afford to live in our little house. 【小题2】 When I thought of Nick and Carol’s spacious house in Sydney, and how they both walked to their jobs each morning, I kept thinking to myself, “I want to be there!”
Slowly, we started talking about the idea of moving to Australia. We’d had enough of short, cold, wet days and small houses in England. The crowds and queues of people at home were too much. 【小题3】
Immigration (移民) to Australia is a long process and expensive. It was very exciting when our applications were finally accepted. When we arrived, and flew over the city of Perth, I saw the bright sunshine and the spacious houses and swimming pools below. 【小题4】 The ocean was shining blue. It felt right. It felt like home.
There are things I miss about England of course, but I do enjoy all the space in Australia, and the relaxed outdoors lifestyle. 【小题5】 To visit, definitely — but not to live. Australia feels like home now.

15、 In Singapore, it seems like art is at every turn. Look closely and you’ll discover masterpieces in front of an office building, a walkway, and even on a rooftop garden, where everyone can appreciate them up close. In order to further promote art, festivals are held throughout the year. Here are some of the biggest art draws to come.
ARTWALK When: January
An annual public art festival, Artwalk takes place in the culturally rich neighborhoods of Little India and Katong-Joo Chiat. Visitors can learn about the food, stories and history of two of Singapore’s most distinct communities on guided walking tours. They can even experience art and culture up close with hands-on workshops with local artists, storytellers and cultural experts.
ART SG When: March
During the biggest art fair in Southeast Asia, more than 150 of the world’s best galleries will showcase their collection of more than 1,000 artists. The film section will feature panel discussions, experimental films, and new film-making practices. Some galleries will also present digital technology artworks like AR, VR, and NFTs.
SINGAPORE BIENNALE When; July
The Singapore Biennale is a dynamic event that encourages folks to see art in a new light through interactive installations and exhibitions. The highlights include art tours, air performances, a film installation and various exhibitions.
SINGAPORE NIGHT When: August
During this party-like n night festival, the Bras Basah-Bugis business street lights up for this multi-dimensional art festival with diverse light installations(装置). Building walls provide larger-than-life canvases (画布) for shows; underground tunnels are brilliant with lights. Art and creativity blossom through a passion for experiments.
【小题1】What can visitors do in ARTWALK
【小题2】What can we learn about ART SG
【小题3】When should visitors go to Singapore if they want to enjoy light shows
16、 Growing up as a kid in the UK, I was fascinated by insects. Wanting to protect them, I started building houses for ants, using little pieces of wood and leaves. I then moved on to making little cups and saucers from silver foil (箔纸) for the magical creatures. When seeing my work, my mother told me that the smaller I made things, the bigger my name would become.
As the years went by, my designs became more complicated. Making sculptures isn’t actually enjoyable. I sometimes work for 16 hours a day without breaks, and it takes me up to three months to finish a sculpture. I have to hold my breath during the sculpting process.
One time, a fly landed on a Cinderella carriage sculpture I was working on. The fly’s wings blew it away, and it was lost. I was heartbroken. Another time, I accidentally breathed in a microscopic Alice from Alice in Wonderland. Alice is now in the Wonderland forever. But it did give me the chance to make an even better one the second time around.
My sculptures have taken me to incredible places. In 2012, I met the queen, giving her a crown on the head of a pin. In 2013, I received my first Guinness World Record for creating the smallest sculpture by hand, a 24-carat gold motorbike that fitted inside a hair. In 2017, I beat my record with a sculpture of a human fetus (胎儿) that measured 0.078 mm by 0.053mm.
I was diagnosed with autism (自闭症) as an adult. In school, my teachers had pointed me out as an example of failure; now, I see my autism as a gift. It’s pushed me to be the best I can be. I hold workshops in schools for neurodiverse children, sharing my story and helping them create their own miniature figures.
The microscopic world has always been my happy place. I’ve tried to make bigger sculptures, but small is best for me. We need to appreciate the little things in life. Small things can also be mighty, TOO.
【小题1】What drove the author to make tiny sculpture at the beginning
【小题2】Which of the following can best describe the author’s sculpting process
【小题3】How does the author deal with his autism now
【小题4】What message does the author mainly convey through the text
17、阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
In the primitive old forest area of Hanzhong, Shaanxi, there is a great amount of tough and long rattan (藤), whose outer skin is smooth in the hand and excellent in its 【小题1】 (flexible). It is a good natural weaving material used by the local people, through their hardworking hands and wisdom, 【小题2】 (make) a wide range of beautiful rattan products.
Rattan weaving has the characteristics of natural materials, various techniques and visual comfort. 【小题3】 greatly meets the needs of modern people for a new lifestyle.
In recent years, more and more rattan furniture and rattan crafts 【小题4】 (enter) people’s daily life, adding a lively touch to life and 【小题5】 (bring) people a relaxed visual experience.
The formation of the regional characteristics of traditional Shaanxi rattan weaving is not an accidental artistic phenomenon, 【小题6】 an artistic expression after thousands of years of continuity, development and change, with deep-rooted national customs, culture, economy and even aesthetics(美学). It is 【小题7】 important cultural heritage of China.
【小题8】 a traditional craft rich in culture and art, Hanzhong rattan weaving represents the 【小题9】 (collect) wisdom of the working people, mirrors the essence (本质) of simple northwest customs and folk traditions and 【小题10】 (hold) high value for folk custom research.

19、Pumpkin (南瓜) carving at Halloween is a family tradition. We visit a local farm every October. In the pumpkin field, I compete with my three brothers and sister to seek out the biggest pumpkin. My dad has a rule that we have to carry our pumpkins back home, and as the eldest child I have an advantage — I carried an 85-pounder (85磅重的南瓜) back last year.
This year, it was hard to tell whether my prize or the one chosen by my 14-year-old brother, Jason, was the winner. Unfortunately we forgot to weigh them before taking out their insides, but I was determined to prove my point. All of us were hard at work at the kitchen table, with my mom filming the annual event. I’m unsure now why I thought forcing my head inside the pumpkin would settle the matter, but it seemed to make perfect sense at the time.
With the pumpkin resting on the table, hole uppermost (向上), I bent over and pressed my head against the opening. At first I got jammed (塞住) just above my eyes and then, as I went on with my task, unwilling to quit, my nose briefly prevented entry. Finally I managed to put my whole head into it, like a cork (软木塞) forced into a bottle. I was able to straighten up with the huge pumpkin resting on my shoulders.
My excitement was short-lived. The pumpkin was heavy. “I’m going to set it down, now,” I said, and with Jason helping to support its weight, I bent back over the table to give it somewhere to rest. It was only when I tried to remove my head that I realized getting out was going to be less straightforward than getting in. When I pulled hard, my nose got in the way. I got into a panic as I pressed firmly against the table and moved my head around trying to find the right angle, but it was no use. “I can’t get it out!” I shouted, my voice sounding unnaturally loud in the enclosed (封闭的) space.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;2.请如下格式在相应位置作答。
It was five or six minutes though it felt much longer.

18 、【答案】 Dear Chris,
How is everything going I’m writing to share with you an exciting experience I had last Friday.
Our school held the textbook drama competition, and I participated in it with my classmates. We acted out a scene from William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. I played the role of Romeo, and it was a challenging but rewarding experience. We spent several weeks preparing for the competition, practicing our lines. On the day of the competition, we were all nervous but also excited to perform. Despite some nerves, I think we did a great job and received a lot of positive feedback from the audience. Participating in the competition was a great opportunity for me to improve my acting skills and confidence. It also allowed me to work with my classmates and develop our teamwork skills. I learned a lot from the competition, and I’m grateful for the experience. What have you been up to lately I hope you’re having a great time.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

19 、【答案】 It was five or six minutes though it felt much longer. Dad was summoned-less, it seemed, in expectation of practical help than to make sure he didn’t miss out on the spectacle. I heard him propose calling the fire department. “Stay tuned,” said Mom; she’d mentioned she was going to upload the video to Facebook, but it was only then that I realized she’d been filming the whole time. The video cuts before my rescue — Dad got me to push my head farther into the pumpkin so Mom could reach in and undo the rubber band round my ponytail. I emerged with squash-conditioned hair, a sore chin and my nose plugged with pulp. The video was posted the Monday before Halloween. By the end of that day, it had over 1, 000 views. People asked Mom to put it on Youtube, and by Wednesday morning we were getting 5: 00 am call from TV breakfast shows and then the international media-the video started racking up hundreds of thousands of views. When I went on a youth camp, I was recognized by children I’d never met. The pumpkin also became a minor celebrity. Passersby and trick-or-treaters would knock and ask, “Which is Rachel’s pumpkin ” before taking selfies with it.
