【参考范文】
“Her professional career as an athlete was over，” the doctor broke the news to me．Just then，my mind went blank．The doctor kept talking about some immediate surgery，but I was lost in enormous guilt．“It's alright，Mom．We can get through this，” Becky seemed to read my mind．The surgery went smoothly，and the news that physical therapy might bring her back to the track was a delight．Three days a week，Kenny and I drove her to the hospital for therapy．My heart cried out every time Becky struggled through a stretch or an exercise．
Following the hard fought recovery，I watched her running with a new attitude．As usual，I was standing on the sidelines．But this time I conducted myself like a mom cheerleading for her daughter rather than a demanding coach．Becky only took baby steps toward regaining her speed and strength．But neither of us worried that she would never be able to pursue a championship．I realized that perhaps Becky was after all not destined for winning medals on the track，but a wholesome life that really counted．

My 10 year old son and his two friends attended a 2 hour fantastic basketball camp on Martin Luther King Jr．Day．A few minutes before the session ended，there was a shooting contest．Only a few kids were chosen to compete，and my son was not one of them．The contest winners received prizes and recognition，as did a few kids chosen as “all stars” for effort，skill and participation．Again，my son was not selected．
My son was struggling to deal with his disappointment．
At the camp，he played a basketball game with kids he had never met，guarded them fiercely and took shots easily against them．As his mom，I was thrilled that he spent the day without his tablet．All in all，the day felt wonderful．The last thing I wanted was for these awards to ruin the experience．
I decided to simplify it for him．I did the math and figured out the shooting contest and awards were about 6% of the total camp．The rest of the camp，the parts that he enjoyed，were 94% of the day．Even though the kid loves math，it was hard for him to see the contests and awards as a small part of his day．
My son once told me about a negative situation that played out at recess (课间休息)．The way he explained it felt like the disagreement lasted hours，but it turns out it was only the last few minutes of the recess．
Now is the time for me as the parent to help my kids think more positively．If my son leaves a half day camp and most of the day is great—that's a win．If our family is able to go to Florida over winter break and enjoy time together，away from the everyday headaches，that's also a win．We can acknowledge the aspects that disappoint us，as long as we are willing to then focus on the bigger picture．
It starts with me and my husband．Our kids will model the behavior we show．They need to see us thinking positively and not hyper focusing on the negative 6%．

[B]He missed out on a basketball contest．
[C]His mother didn't turn up in a contest．

[A]To help her son to think positively．
[B]To arouse her son's interest in math．

[C]Start a project． [D]Learn from other parents．
7．What can be concluded from the text according to the author
[A]Practice makes perfect．
[B]Every coin has two sides．
[C]The bigger picture matters．
[D]Adversity makes a wise man．
C篇
Our species' incredible capacity to quickly acquire words from 300 by age 2 to over 1，000 by age 4 isn't fully understood．Some cognitive scientists and linguists have theorized that people are born with built in expectations and logical constraints (约束) that make this possible．Now，however，machine learning research is showing that preprogrammed assumptions aren't necessary to swiftly pick up word meanings from minimal data．
A team of scientists has successfully trained a basic artificial intelligence model to match images to words using just 61 hours of naturalistic footage (镜头) and sound previously collected from a child named Sam in 2013 and 2014．Although it's a small slice of a child's life，it was apparently enough to prompt the AI to figure out what certain words mean．
The findings suggest that language acquisition could be simpler than previously thought．Maybe children “don't need a custom built，high class language specific mechanism” to efficiently grasp word meanings，says Jessica Sullivan，an associate professor of psychology at Skidmore College．“This is a really beautiful study，” she says，because it offers evidence that simple information from a child's world view is rich enough to kick start pattern recognition and word comprehension．
The new study also demonstrates that it's possible for machines to learn similarly to the way that humans do．Large language models are trained on enormous amounts of data that can include billions and sometimes trillions of word combinations．Humans get by on orders of magnitude less information，says the paper's lead author Wai Keen Vong．With the right type of data，that gap between machine and human learning could narrow dramatically．
Yet additional study is necessary in certain aspects of the new research．For one，the scientists acknowledge that their findings don't prove how children acquire words．Moreover，the study only focused on recognizing the words for physical objects．
Still，it's a step toward a deeper understanding of our own mind，which can ultimately help us improve human education，says Eva Portelance，a computational linguistics researcher．She notes that AI research can also bring clarity to long unanswered questions about ourselves．“We can use these models in a good way，to benefit science and society，” Portelance adds．
8．What is a significant finding of machine learning research
[A]Vocabulary increases gradually with age．
[B]Vocabulary can be acquired from minimal data．
[C]Language acquisition is tied to built in expectations．
[D]Language acquisition is as complex as formerly assumed．
9．What does the underlined word “prompt” in paragraph 2 mean
[A]Facilitate． [B]Persuade．
[C]Advise． [D]Expect．
10．What is discussed about the new research in paragraph 5
[A]Its limitations． [B]Its strengths．
[C]Its uniqueness． [D]Its process．
11．What is Eva Portelance's attitude to the AI research
[A]Doubtful． [B]Cautious．
[C]Dismissive． [D]Positive．

What time is it on the moon
Since the dawn of the space age，the answer has been: It depends．For decades，lunar missions have operated on the time of the country that launched them．But with several lunar explorations heading for the launch pad (发射台)，the European Space Agency (ESA) has believed that the current system is unsustainable and is considering giving the moon its very own time zone．
The main objective of establishing a universal timekeeping system for the moon is to streamline contact among the various countries and entities，public and private，which are coordinating trips to and around the moon．
The M1 lunar lander built by the Japanese company iSpace arrived on the moon in April，2023．In 2022，China completed construction of its own space station and previously suggested that Chinese astronauts would be on the moon by 2030．These missions will not only be on or around the moon at the same time，but they will often be interacting as well．For all those interactions to happen smoothly，the missions will need to operate on a standardized time．
At the same time，the international team looking at establishing a lunar time zone is debating whether a single organization should set and keep time on the moon．Clocks run faster on the moon than on Earth，gaining about 56 microseconds each day．The exact difference depends on the position of the clock and whether it is in orbit or on the lunar surface．
Anyhow，efforts are being made to develop a base and support human habitation on the moon．The goal of setting a universal timekeeping system is to improve cooperation across all space agencies．The effort is part of a larger project to create a complete communication and navigation system for the moon．The international space agencies will need to be prepared to settle on a time zone before the proper time zone can be identified，and a thorough research study is required for this．
12．Why is the ESA considering giving the moon its own time zone
[A]The present time system is regarded as ineffective．
[B]The time on the moon is changing with the space age．
[C]The M1 lunar lander arrived on the moon in April．
[D]Lunar missions have operated on the moon's own time zone．
13．How does the writer develop paragraph 4
[A]By quoting experts．
[B]By giving examples．
[C]By listing statistics．
[D]By making comparisons．
14．What is presented about setting a time zone in paragraph 5
[A]The plan． [B]The cause．
[C]The future． [D]The challenges．
15．What is the probable attitude of the author towards setting a standardized time zone
[A]Indifferent． [B]Doubtful．
[C]Objective． [D]Critical．

For many of us，the closest place we get to wild animals is at a zoo．These places let us see amazing animals from big cats to tiny lizards，and what they are like．It's an enjoyable and educational experience for us，but is it the best environment for these animals
16 Later on，live animals were captured by explorers，brought home and put on show to the public in menageries (野生动物园)． 17 Modern zoos，however，have transformed the living environments for animals，making bigger enclosures，removing bars，and to some extent，copying their natural habitats．
Some people have questioned the cruelty of keeping animals captive (圈养的) for entertainment，but zoos are keen to show that they help wildlife by educating us about conservation．In the UK，the introduction of the Zoo Licensing Act of 1981 required zoos to educate the public． 18
Probably the biggest claim from zoos today is that they help protect species in the wild that are under threat due to climate change．Robert Young，chair in Wildlife Conservation at Salford University，said，“There are quite a lot of different species around the planet which we wouldn't have today if it wasn't for zoos．” 19 A famous American actor once praised Chester Zoo in the UK for its conservation work．It brought “a rare fish species back from the dead” after breeding and releasing a school of golden skiffia fish back into their native river．
20 For instance，a virtual reality zoo enables the public to see rare animals and have amazing interactions．Jon Coe，a zoo designer，told the news media，“Taking a walk through a herd of elephants in Serengeti National Park in Africa，I think，is going to be possible pretty soon．”
A．Animal welfare was not a priority．
B．Animal protection is becoming a global issue．
C．What we should do next is not to disturb wildlife．
D．New opportunities to meet wildlife are being explored．
E．Some zoos have programs to preserve the future of endangered species．
F．Long ago，people could only see wild animals as dead exhibits in a museum．
G．Since then，more zoos have been involved in raising people's awareness of wildlife conservation．
16．[A] [B] [C] [D] [E] [F] [G]

My husband Kenny and I grew up playing sports．We both worked in the field of physical education and coached youth high school track and field．So，Kenny and I weren't surprised when our daughter，Becky，showed early athletic promise．
Watching her outrun other kids on the playground，I knew she was destined for winning medals on the track．Slowly but surely，track took over our lives．Weekends were devoted to training．We stopped taking vacations so the girl wouldn't miss any practice．We missed her birthdays and family outings．I even restricted the time she could spend hanging out with her friends，which would consume the energy she needed for the competition．
We didn't really ask Becky if that was what she wanted．Of course she did! Who wouldn't want to use a God given talent to the fullest Occasionally，Becky would open up after a loss，“I wish you were the same even if I have a bad day on the track．I feel like you don't accept me just for who I am．”
Honestly，that hurt．In my heart，I knew what she said was true．I could behave more like a coach than a mom on the sidelines．But I didn't mind．Ensuring her winning on the track was my only goal．I probably cared more about the medals than she did．By the time Becky started middle school，our family life had revolved around (以……为中心) practices and competitions．I had visions of college scholarships，maybe even the Olympics．
One day，at a Regional Junior Olympics qualifying event，she twisted her leg and ended up in a heavy fall，screaming in pain．This was not supposed to happen．Kenny and I pushed her too hard the day before and she attempted to break the record which was clearly beyond her reach．
We rushed her to hospital right away．Never did I imagine sitting in a doctor's office，staring at the X ray result as the doctor calmly explained that Becky's posterior cruciate ligament (后十字韧带)—the thick tissue stabilizing the back of her knee—was torn．
