When a heavy rain hit Beijing one afternoon in May, for many the first thing to do was to rush for cover. For photographer（摄影师） Yang Dong, however, his first thought was to take his camera. The next morning, Yang got up at 2:30 am and drove to the Great Wall. Arriving at the foot of the mountain an hour and a half later, Yang started to climb with all his photography equipment. Before sunrise, Yang had already set up his camera, hoping to catch an impressive moment when the Great Wall would be partly hidden in the clouds. With a large amount of patience, he got what he came for.
“After heavy rain or snow, the next morning is the best time to find a sea of clouds around the Great Wall,” Yang says in a phone interview. The 28-year-old became popular on the Internet sharing the stories behind his photographs of the Great Wall over the past five years, with his stories being viewed more than 150 million times. One Internet user comments: “Only repeatedly measuring the Great Wall step by step can he know which angle (角度) is the most beautiful. I have never met such a professional photographer like him.”
He is known as the Great Wall photographer, and his stories are well-known among the fans. What’s more, he was invited to play a lead role in the documentary (纪录片) Loving the Great Wall issued in January, and was also the spokesman for the 2019 China Great Wall International Photo Week.

Three Americans, including one teenager from New York City, were among the 20 Legacy (遗产) Award recipients at Thursday’s 2024 Diana Awards, named in memory of the late（已故的） Diana Spencer, Princess of Wales.
The Legacy Award specifically, launched in 2017, aims to celebrate the achievements of 20 outstanding young leaders, visionaries and role models from across the world.
16-year-old native New Yorker Hailey Richman was recognized for her work as the founder and CEO of Kid Caregivers, a nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering and supporting young people who serve as caregivers, and to enriching the lives of adults affected by Alzheimer’s. Richman launched the organization when she was just 8—four years after her own grandmother was diagnosed with the disease.
Richman, who was previously honored at the age of 12 as a 2019 Empower Player by DoSomething. org, said she hopes the award will “spread awareness but also inspire other young people around the world to do something to make a change.”
Among the other American nominees (被提名者) was 18-year-old Olivia Zhang, born in McLean, Virginia, who was recognized for creating Cancer Kids First, the world’s largest youth-led organization, which works towards lessening the challenges that patients of pediatric cancer face.
Meanwhile, University of Michigan School of Business alum Sikander “Sonny” Khan, 26, founded the Paani Project and has since raised over $ 6.1 million to tackle Pakistan’s lack of secure access to clean water. The organization has built over 17,000 wells and served more than 2. 5 million meals to villagers across the Southeast Asian country.
Diana’s oldest son, Prince William, was on hand at London’s Science Museum on Thursday to give a speech and present this year’s Legacy Awards.
“I know that she would have been honored to see a charity in her name doing such inspirational work to uplift young people from all corners of the globe,” he said, regarding his late mother, who died in 1997. “She taught me that everyone has the potential to give something back, that everyone in need deserves a supporting hand in life.”
28. What do we know about the Legacy Award
A. It was just awarded to outstanding young Americans.
B. It is launched in 2024 in memory of the late Princess Diana.
C. It was established by Princess Diana during her lifetime.
D. It is awarded to 20 outstanding young people from across the world.
29. What inspired Hailey Richman to launch Kid Caregivers
A. The adults were affected by Alzheimer’s.
B. Her own grandmother was diagnosed with Alzheimer.
C. She was honored at the age of 12 as a 2019 Empower Player.
D. She wants to become the founder and CEO of this organization.
30. What qualities do the three American nominees share
A. Being generous and thankful.
B. Being ambitious（有抱负的，有雄心的） and capable.
C. Being creative and thoughtful（周到的，体贴的）.
D. Being determined and humorous.
31. What can we infer from the last two paragraphs
A Princess Diana was a person with a heart of love.
B. Princess Diana would like to see a charity in her name.
C. Prince William presented this year’s award at a Science Museum.
D. Prince William was taught by his mother to help and support those in need.

At first glance, there is nothing unusual about BingoBox’s convenience store–shelves packed with snacks line the walls, attracting passers-by through the glass windows. But upon closer look, BingoBox is no ordinary store. The door unlocks only after customers scan (扫描) a QR code to enter, and there is no cashier — just a lone checkout counter (柜台) in a corner. The Shanghai-based company is one of many unmanned store operators (运营者) opening outlets all over China, hoping to improve slim profit by reducing staff costs.
“If staff costs rise quickly, that puts greater pressure on low-profit businesses like convenience stores and supermarkets,” said Andrew Song, an analyst at Guotai Junan Securities. “In China, manpower costs have been rising relatively quickly.”
However, the future vision of shopping without a check-out person is still a work in progress. A Post reporter who visited a BingoBox store in Shanghai was briefly locked in when trying to exit without buying anything. Although a sign near the exit stated that empty-handed customers can leave by scanning a QR code, no QR code was to be found. Repeated calls to the customer service hotline went unanswered.
The idea of unmanned stores first caught the world’s attention in December last year. Equipped with technology such as RFID tags, mobile payment systems and facial and movement recognition, such stores collect large amounts of data that give operators a better idea of consumer preferences and buying habits, which can then be used to optimize (使最优化) operations and make more efficient inventory decisions. For companies like BingoBox, lower operating costs also mean it can afford to expand its reach to areas with less foot traffic or fewer people, according to its founder and chief executive Chen Zilin.
32. What makes BingoBox store look like an ordinary convenience store
A. No cashier to check out. B. A lone checkout counter.
C. Shelves packed with goods. D. Entering by scanning a QR code.
33. Why are unmanned stores popular with operators
A. The customers prefer mobile payment systems.
B. The unmanned stores help improve profit with lower labor costs.
C. The employees focus on consumer preferences and buying habits.
D. The operators care more about operations and inventory decisions.
34. Why is the reporter’s case mentioned in the passage
A. To show his anger and dissatisfaction.
B. To warn people not to go to a BingoBox store.
C. To explain unmanned stores still have a long way to go.
D. To complain that QR code service is not convenient at all..
35. What can we infer from the chief executive Chen Zilin
A. Nowadays all stores should be equipped with advanced technology.
B. The operators collect data about consumer preferences and buying habits.
C. BingoBox made wiser decisions based on the data collected in those unmanned stores.
D. The operators can open unmanned supermarkets in more distant places with low cost.

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。
Anna took her first baby-sitting job in Peter Smith’s and played games with Peter’s three children until the bedtime. Mr. Smith praised her for the great work. After Mrs. Smith had pressed the money into her hand, Anna didn’t even look at the money and then walked out of the house. She’d expected ten dollars. Now she saw that it was a one-hundred-dollar bill!
Anna imagined her parents’ faces when she handed them the one hundred dollars.
Things hadn’t been easy for Anna’s family since Anna’s dad had lost his engineering job a year ago. There had been no new clothes or movies in the last year. They no longer went out to eat on Fridays. Anna didn’t really mind, as long as her family was together. But now she could help. One hundred dollars! That was enough to fill the car with gas or to buy a bag of groceries.
Her excitement faded as she wondered if Mrs. Smith realized how much money she had given her. Could she have made a mistake Anna felt bad as she remembered that Mrs. Smith had simply pulled the money from her purse （钱包）without looking at it.
Anna thought, “Maybe Mrs. Smith meant to give me the one-hundred-dollar bill. Baby-sitting three children is a lot of work.” Soon Anna remembered that the Smiths didn’t seem to have much money, either. But, she silently argued with herself. “They gave me the money. I didn’t steal it.”
She found her parents in the living room. Anna took a deep breath and told them what had happened. “I wanted to give the money to you to help out the family, but I think Mrs. Smith made a mistake.” She continued. “I’m going to give it back to her.”
Dad settled his big hand on her shoulder. “You just gave us the best gift, Anna.” Mom kissed her. “We’re proud of you, sweetheart.”
注意:1. 续写词数应为 150 左右:
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The next morning, Anna went to Mrs. Smith’s house again.
