Five years ago, when I taught art at a school in Seattle, I used Tinkertoys as a test at the beginning of a term to find out something about my students. I put a small set of Tinkertoys in front of each student, and said:“Make something out of the Tinkertoys. You have 45 minutes today— and 45 minutes each day for the rest of the week.”
A few students hesitated to start. They waited to see what the rest of the class would do. Several others checked the instructions and made something according to one of the model plans provided. Another group built something out of their own imaginations.
Once I had a boy who worked experimentally with Tinkertoys in his free time. His constructions filled a shelf in the art classroom and a good part of his bedroom at home. I was delighted at the presence of such a student. Here was an exceptionally creative mind at work. His presence meant that I had an unexpected teaching assistant in class whose creativity would infect (感染) other students.
Encouraging this kind of thinking has a downside. I ran the risk of losing those students who had a different style of thinking. Without fail one would declare, “But I'm just not creative.”
“Do you dream at night when you' re asleep ”
“Oh, sure.”
“So tell me one of your most interesting dreams.” The student would tell something wildly imaginative. Flying in the sky or in a time machine or growing three heads. “That's pretty creative. Who does that for you ”
“Nobody. I do it.”
“Really— at night, when you' re asleep ”
“Sure.”
“Try doing it in the daytime, in class, okay ”
24. The teacher used Tinkertoys in class in order to .
A. make the lessons more exciting B. know more about the students
C. teach the students about toy design D. raise the students' interest in art
25. What do we know about the boy mentioned in Paragraph 3
A. He was imaginative. B. He preferred to study alone.
C. He liked to help his teacher. D. He was active in class.
26. What does the underlined word“downside” in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A. Drawback. B. Burden. C. Difficulty. D. Mistake.
27. Why did the teacher ask the students to talk about their dreams
A. To find out about their sleeping habits.
B. To find out about their ways of thinking.
C. To help them to improve their memory.
D. To help them to see their creativity.

While facial recognition technology continues to promote many aspects of human life, it's now being applied to aid the protection of giant pandas, Xinhua News Agency reported on 6 January, 2022.
A nature reserve has built an AI-enabled video monitoring system to better protect giant pandas. Equipped with 300 infrared(红外线的) cameras, the monitoring system helps ensure the health and safety of 110 wild giant pandas there. It was put into operation two years ago, and has captured numerous photos and videos of pandas engaged in activities such as eating, resting and fighting for mates. It provides scientific data to help us grasp pandas’ living conditions and establish conservation strategies. More importantly, it achieves real-time monitoring of the reserve so that we can discern the threats to the wildlife as early as possible.
A recent study found the facial recognition system could automatically recognize various wild animals caught in infrared cameras, allowing researchers to collect data on giant pandas while staying indoors. It's shown that by equipping the reserve with the AI-aided system to store the filed photos of giant pandas, we obtain a 98% success rate for species recognition. Its success rate of recognizing other wild animals can top 80%. In 2021 alone, this monitoring system captured 2,896 photos of giant pandas and other rare animals and filmed 3,218 seconds of footage, showcasing the reserve's sound ecological environment as well as a gradual rise in the panda population there.
Head of the reserve's administration, Liu Xingming, said researchers used the system not only to observe the dynamics and health of the giant panda population but also to learn about changes in the natural surroundings of their habitat. "The monitoring system has enabled the systematic, scientific, and intelligent conservation of wildlife, "he added. "However, it is expected to be further improved and optimized in the near future. "
28. What does the underlined word"discern"mean in Paragraph 2
A. Receive. B. Pose. C. Attach. D. Detect.
29. What can be inferred about the new technology from the study
A. It precisely recognizes any species.
B. It makes the panda population rise rapidly.
C. It contributes to species data collection.
D. It understands pandas' facial appearance.
30. What is Liu Xingming's attitude to the facial recognition monitoring system
A. Critical. B. Objective. C. Ambiguous. D. Indifferent.
31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. Panda Facial Recognition Using the Database
B. Functions of Facial Recognition Technology
C. AI Technology for Better Panda Protection
D. A Breakthrough in the Video Monitoring System
D
You’ve heard an old Chinese saying before: Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. You may even be nodding your head in agreement right now. However, we can have a different understanding of it.
When a person is starving, that's not the time to fill their head with knowledge but to first give the person a fish — eradicating their hunger — and only then teach them to fish. Far too often, people ignore this common-sense first step. They see someone who is struggling, and they rush to offer wisdom."Let me tell you what I'd do in your position, "a well-meaning individual might offer.
But few of us understand the anxiety, confusion and uncertainty that come with overwhelming need. People meeting with personal disasters don't have the ability to think straight. Their nerves may be shot. Their confidence may be non- existent. Can you imagine what it would be like to be in that person's situation
Rushing to offer a struggling person long-term advice is a waste of time. Instead, it makes far more sense to help them regain their emotional balance. Once their ears, heart and mind are open, you' ll have an opportunity to teach a new skill.
But how do we know whether a person needs a fish before a fishing lesson Two things: One is the ability to pay attention. We need to know whether the person is open and receptive, or looking at the world through narrowed eyes. You can't just take their words but have to look at how the person acts and what they don't say. The other is empathy(共情). The more successful you are, the harder it is to imagine what it must be like to be the opposite. Try to create a safe environment for emotional acceptance before the fishing lesson.
32. What is the function of the first paragraph
A. To illustrate a concept. B. To bring in a new viewpoint.
C. To introduce the background. D. To put up an example.
33. What does the underlined word"eradicating"mean in Paragraph 2
A. Getting rid of. B. Paying attention to.
C. Making up for. D. Putting up with.
34. What should we do first for those in disasters
A. Get them to think straight. B. Enhance their confidence.
C. Satisfy their primary needs. D. Teach them a new skill.
35. Which does the author probably agree with according to the last paragraph
A. Live and learn. B. Never teach a fish to swim.
C. Put yourself in others' shoes. D. Don't teach an old dog new tricks.

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。
As a single mother, I' ve never doubted my daughter Jane's dream of being a singer on the stage. At an early age, she was crazy about singing. Whenever she had a chance, she would sing to her heart's content. Her sweet and charming voice tended to get people around attracted to her songs.
Living in a small city, I took several odd jobs, determined to do everything in my power to support her. Soon after Jane attended school, her music teacher Mary noticed her talent by chance and volunteered to give her some guidance on how to sing. Jane practiced so hard that before long she made great progress in singing.
Unfortunately, at noon one day a year later, Jane was crossing the street when a careless driver knocked her down. She was rushed to the hospital. When I hurried there, the doctor told me that my daughter would probably not stand on her own feet. I froze with shock, feeling as if I had been thrown into a dark world. Weak and dizzy, I was about to fall to the ground when someone took hold of me.
It was Mary who got the news and raced here. She comforted me, saying firmly, "Grace, Jane needs you. You must stay calm and strong. "I nodded. Having calmed down, I entered the ward with Mary.
That night, Jane recovered her consciousness(知觉) and opened her eyes. Holding her hand, I said,"My dear, everything would be fine. " Mary comforted her gently, "I know you are a strong girl, Jane. Don't worry. We' ll be standing by you. "I was heartbroken to see tears streaming down Jane's cheeks.
After two months, we returned home from the hospital. Her teachers and friends frequently visited her. Jane eventually accepted the fact that she would have to get around in a wheelchair. Never did she refer to the subject of singing again. I knew she was a nice and understanding girl, who was afraid that talking about her original dream would upset the two of us.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式作答。
One day, however, Mary came with good news.

When the host announced it was Jane's turn, she was wheeled onto the stage.

Dear Mr. Li,
I am Li Hua, a student in our school. I am rather willing to offer you my suggestions for upgrading our library.
Firstly, it benefits us a lot to diversify the books and organize some reading-related lectures, because it enables us to have access to various books and arouses our interest in reading. Secondly, more spacious rooms along with comfortable seats should be designed to provide a better reading experience. Lastly, it' ll also be excellent to donate second-hand books to the children in need, which can greatly reduce the waste of resources.
Hopefully, my suggestions can be taken into consideration.
Yours,
Li Hua

Paragraph 1:
One day, however, Mary came with good news. She told Jane the school music festival was to be held the next month and that her classmates all expected her to sing on behalf of their class. "Really "Jane exclaimed with excitement but immediately lowered her head. She murmured, "I'm afraid I'm not competent in it. "Perceiving her hesitation and lack of confidence, Mary and I said some encouraging words and persuaded her to sign up for it. In the following month, Jane engaged herself wholeheartedly in practicing singing. Under Mary's guidance, she made rapid progress and her confidence was also building up. Finally the big day came when Jane would give her singing performance on the stage.
Paragraph 2:
When the host announced it was Jane's turn, she was wheeled onto the stage. Nervous as she was, she tried to collect herself and stay focused. As she began to sing, the audience got enchanted with her charming voice. Seconds after her performance, all the audience rose with thunderous applause and cheers. No sooner had Jane been wheeled off the stage than she was surrounded by her excited classmates and teachers with bunches of flowers in hands. She was so moved that she uttered in a trembling voice, "Without your support and encouragement, I wouldn't have made it today."With moist eyes, she threw her arms tightly around Mary and couldn't speak anything at that very moment. It was Jane's persistent efforts and strong faith that paved the way for realizing her dream.
