Deema Assaf walked slowly through Birgish, one of only a few forests in Jordan, careful not to step on one of the delicate wild orchids. “We once had thick forests,” she said. “There were elephants, rhinos and the Asiatic lion, animals which used to live together with people here.” She looked up at the top of an old oak tree and said, “Discovering that made me see the landscape from a different perspective. It is fascinating to see the potential if human intervention were not affecting ecosystem negatively.”
Assaf is an architect and urban forester. After working as a full-time architect for more than ten years, Assaf left her job to look for something more meaningful. She was inspired by a video about a 2,000-year-old forest in Morocco. In the film, she saw a man-made forest in a dry country, with a high ceiling of foliage and walls of fruit trees. She decided that this was what she wanted to do in her native Jordan.
Her research led her to the Miyawaki method, which creates highly biodiverse multi-layered native forests ten times faster than nature itself does. Her approach goes beyond planting individual trees. It is about establishing a complex and dynamic plant “community”, reconnecting native species that co-evolved together for thousands of years.
Jordan is one of the driest countries in the world, with 75 percent desert and little rainfall. Despite the challenge, Assaf believes it is crucial to act. “It is not drought that causes bare ground, it is bare ground that causes drought,” Assaf said. She claims that “the more we work on greening, the more we give nature the ability to restore itself.”
Assaf started small. Her first site was only 107 square meters. She has gradually built a database for native forest creation in Jordan. So far, she has planted four forests with more than 2,700 native plant seedlings. She also collects seeds for others, including those of endangered species in Jordan.
Assaf always emphasizes it is important to have people participate in growing forests. She often works in collaboration with schools, universities, cities, and companies. “I see it as a kind of citizen-led species recovery intervention, doing what we believe is right and being part of the solution,” Assaf explains.
24. What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 1 refer to
A. The old oak tree. B. The preservation of forests.
C. The effects of human intervention. D. The co-existence between man and wildlife.
25. What did the video motivate Assaf to do
A. Rejuvenate local ecology. B. Quit her job as an architect.
C. Facilitate landscape connectivity. D. Monitor biodiversity conservation.
26. What does Assaf highlight in paragraph 4
A. The importance of greening. B. The causes of desertification.
C. The urgency to conserve nature. D. The difficulty in fighting drought.
27. What does Assaf think is crucial to her mission
A. Site selection. B. Database creation. C. Business expansion. D. Community engagement.
C
As digital communication becomes the primary way many people connect, the language we use in these spaces is constantly evolving. Texting has developed its own dialect, filled with abbreviations like “hru ” (how are you ). While nearly all texters use these shortcuts, the findings suggest that dashing off a swift “hru ” might not appear as genuine as taking the time to spell out: “How are you ”
“While abbreviations can save time and effort, our research suggests that they may also slow down effective communication and negatively influence interpersonal perceptions,” the authors write in Journal of Experimental Psychology.
The findings challenge the common assumption about texting culture. While 99% of people report using abbreviations and 84% believe others don’t mind them, the research shows that abbreviated messages consistently create negative impressions. Perhaps most tellingly, only 15.8% of participants correctly predicted this negative impact, while 80% assumed others would be indifferent to abbreviations.
David Fang at Stanford University and his colleagues ran the studies to explore the impact of abbreviations in different messaging scenarios. They examined over 200,000 conversations from 686 users spanning 37 countries and five continents. Researchers calculated the percentage of abbreviations participants used in their messages. They discovered a clear pattern: conversations containing more abbreviations consistently died out faster.
“Our research reveals that texting abbreviations negatively affect interpersonal communication by decreasing perceived effort, which in turn leads to lower perceived sincerity and responsiveness. Ultimately, our findings highlight the importance of considering the impact of evolving language use in the digital era on the quality of interpersonal communication,” Fang and his colleagues concluded.
Texting abbreviations could contribute to loneliness if people find that social bonds weaken over time because they receive less frequent or positive replies to their texts, Fang said. But he doesn’t believe people should stop using abbreviations altogether.
“We often tailor the effort we put into conversations to match the significance of the relationship. In some cases, it makes sense to invest less effort, like quickly texting with a delivery driver,” Fang said. “However, our findings are especially relevant when we want to strengthen social ties, such as at the beginning of a relationship or when we need to make a good impression.”
28. What do the findings indicate about texting abbreviations
A. They make senders seem insincere. B. They have evolved over a long time.
C. They reshape digital communication. D. They are a shortcut to learning dialects.
29. What do texters commonly assume about abbreviations
A. They could become trendy. B. They would not bother others.
C. They could ruin communication. D. They would damage social connections.
30. Fang's research reveals that the use of abbreviations is perceived as ________.
A. the evolution of language B. a lower effort from the sender
C. an improved conversational quality D. the preference for a shorter conversation
31. What is Fang's view on using abbreviations
A. It enhances social ties. B. It should be abandoned.
C. It depends on the context. D. It can simplify the content.
D
Ask Google’s AI video tool to create a film of a time-travelling doctor who flies around in a blue British phone booth and the result, unsurprisingly, resembles Doctor Who. And if you ask OpenAI’s technology to do the same, a similar thing happens. What’s wrong with that, you may think The answer could be one of the biggest issues AI chiefs face as their era-defining technology becomes ever more widespread in our lives.
Google and OpenAI’s generative artificial intelligence is supposed to be just that—generative, meaning it develops novel answers to our questions. But how much of that output is original The problem is working out how much AI tools like Sora 2 and Veo 3 rely on someone else’s art to come up with their own inventions. One firm, however, claims to be able to shine a light on the issue.
TraceID by Vermillio can detect the percentage to which AI-generated content is based on copyrighted materials. One of the platform’s abilities is to create neural fingerprints for brands, characters or other IP. These fingerprints act as digital identifiers that map the unique characteristics of a given piece of content. By comparing this fingerprint against AI-generated content, it can determine how much the new content overlaps with the original, offering a percentage-based match.
The research showcases this process in action, using well-known films such as Doctor Who and James Bond as case studies. The findings Sora matched up to 62% with James Bond fingerprint, Google’s Veo 3 matched 80% to Doctor Who fingerprint, implying that they have leaned heavily on copyright-protected work to produce its output.
Many creative professionals demand compensation and an end to unauthorized use of their work until permissions are granted. They argue AI tools build on their work without remuneration, producing competing creations that undercut their industries.
Kathleen Grace, head of Vermillio, said: “We can all win if we just take a beat and figure out a way to share and track content. This would encourage copyright holders to release more data to AI companies and would give AI companies access to more interesting sets of data. Instead of giving all the money to AI companies, there would be this amazing ecosystem.”
32. What issue is presented at the beginning of the passage
A. Generative AI reinvents film production.
B. The capabilities of generative AI are expanding.
C. Generative AI is becoming increasingly widespread.
D. Copyrighted materials are used in AI-generated content.
33. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. Who uses TraceID. B. How TraceID works.
C. Why TraceID is developed. D. Where TraceID is used.
34. What does the underline word “remuneration” in paragraph 5 mean
A. Delay. B. Pay. C. Effort. D. Warning.
35. What message does Kathleen Grace want to convey
A. Limiting data hurts scientific progress. B. Copyright holders should release more data.
C. A fair data-sharing ecosystem benefits all. D. AI firms must disclose copyrighted content use.

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Sharing is an essential part of our daily lives. When you share your experiences with your peers, they are more likely to feel comfortable sharing their own. ___36___ If the thought of sharing your experiences holds you back because you believe that you don’t have big experiences to share, then, you should get over it right away because all experiences are equally valuable. Here are the tips to make your sharing experience more effective.
___37___ Make sure that you go into as much detail as possible. Try to picturise your experience for others so that they can just feel like you do. Share with them what you feel and why you feel that way. Start by sharing when you had the idea for what you are sharing. Then share what happened or what you thought. After that, share why it is important to you or why you think the way you do.
Explain the words. ___38___ Would you understand every word of your dialogue if you were from another community If not, consider defining the jargon. As an alternative to saying to your global peers, “I love Kathakali and you should definitely watch it someday.” Say something like: “I love Kathakali, which is a form of folk dance, in which the dancers present a drama wearing unique masks. You should watch it someday.”
Be fearless. While sharing an experience, you do not have to be embarrassed, afraid to open up. ___39___ For example, suppose you are discussing gender equality, and some of your peers support the idea that women can only work in certain professions, and you disagree with them. Then, instead of fearing what people would think if you said something unconventional, just say it.
Now that you have read my tips for sharing, go share your own experiences, ideas, and thoughts with the rest of the world. Remember that no experience is too big or too small. ___40___ Whatever you share would be unique and new to someone who has had different experiences or has different perspectives from you. So, continue to share. A. Share the details.
B. Because it surely does!
C. Make sense of your experiences.
D. All experiences matter in their own way.
E. You have every right to be brave and frank out.
F. Think about this from another person’s perspective.
G. There are no restrictions on sharing what matters to you.

Like most teenagers growing up in the digital age, I relied on my phone for photos—quick snaps that were
___41___ but rarely revisited. My profile on Instagram was a polished collection of such photos intended to ___42___ my peers.
The transition from sharing images to ___43___ memories for myself wasn’t immediate. It began with a simple ___44___: flipping(翻)through family photo albums. I was attracted by the images from my family’s
___45___. They weren’t polished, but they held stories that words often couldn’t ___46___—of birthdays, ceremonies and family portraits. In those photographs, I saw ___47___. I realized that every image was a piece of something ___48___: a history that had been passed down.
It was this ___49___ that led me to pick up my film camera. With just 36 exposures per roll, each photo required ___50___, a slowing down to see the world around me. I now take photos of the things that matter most: friends’ weddings, holidays and small moments of joy. If a picture didn’t turn out as I had hoped, it didn’t matter. The ___51___ became part of the story. They weren’t meant for ___52___ or comments—they were meant for me, for family and friends.
There’s a sense of ___53___ when I finally open an envelope of developed prints. I’m ___54___ back to those moments. And in that sense, my ___55___ to film photography feels like a desire to regain the permanence and closeness that comes with holding a memory in your hands.

For our long-service leave, my husband and I decided to travel around Tasmania with our camper trailer(野营拖车). We were coming all the way across Western Australia to get there — not exactly a “lap of the map”, but still a big trip. We’d packed our bikes, surfboards and our dog.
It was all going beautifully until we got to St Helens in Tasmania. We were looking forward to hitting the bike trails and the beach. But what was meant to be a fun day of mountain biking quickly turned into a stressful, late-night rescue when my husband broke his leg on the trail.
Thanks to the incredible local emergency services, he was located, rescued and airlifted to hospital. As I watched him being flown off the mountain by helicopter, relief flooded through me — and then reality hit. I was now solely responsible for the dog, the vehicle and the camper trailer still set up back at the campsite. Packing up the trailer was a two-person job. My family and friends were 4,000 km away in Western Australia. And my dog needed a walk!
The next day, new neighbours arrived at the campsite. Exhausted and worried, I managed a small smile as a man named Sam said hello and began setting up with his wife. I wondered what they thought—a solo woman with a dog, no partner in sight, and a camper trailer full of gear(齿轮).
Eventually, Sam’s curiosity got the better of him. He asked a few gentle questions and, after two days of silent stress, the whole story poured out.
Sam listened patiently, kindly. He nodded, said little, and returned to his own camp. That evening, he and his wife, Hillary, did something extraordinary. With no hesitation, they told me they’d pack everything up for me. “Tasmania has given us a warm hug,” they said. “Now we want to pass that hug on.”

Deema Assaf walked slowly through Birgish, one of only a few forests in Jordan, careful not to step on one of the delicate wild orchids. “We once had thick forests,” she said. “There were elephants, rhinos and the Asiatic lion, animals which used to live together with people here.” She looked up at the top of an old oak tree and said, “Discovering that made me see the landscape from a different perspective. It is fascinating to see the potential if human intervention were not affecting ecosystem negatively.”
Assaf is an architect and urban forester. After working as a full-time architect for more than ten years, Assaf left her job to look for something more meaningful. She was inspired by a video about a 2,000-year-old forest in Morocco. In the film, she saw a man-made forest in a dry country, with a high ceiling of foliage and walls of fruit trees. She decided that this was what she wanted to do in her native Jordan.
Her research led her to the Miyawaki method, which creates highly biodiverse multi-layered native forests ten times faster than nature itself does. Her approach goes beyond planting individual trees. It is about establishing a complex and dynamic plant “community”, reconnecting native species that co-evolved together for thousands of years.
Jordan is one of the driest countries in the world, with 75 percent desert and little rainfall. Despite the challenge, Assaf believes it is crucial to act. “It is not drought that causes bare ground, it is bare ground that causes drought,” Assaf said. She claims that “the more we work on greening, the more we give nature the ability to restore itself.”
Assaf started small. Her first site was only 107 square meters. She has gradually built a database for native forest creation in Jordan. So far, she has planted four forests with more than 2,700 native plant seedlings. She also collects seeds for others, including those of endangered species in Jordan.
Assaf always emphasizes it is important to have people participate in growing forests. She often works in collaboration with schools, universities, cities, and companies. “I see it as a kind of citizen-led species recovery intervention, doing what we believe is right and being part of the solution,” Assaf explains.
24. What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 1 refer to
A. The old oak tree. B. The preservation of forests.
C. The effects of human intervention. D. The co-existence between man and wildlife.
25. What did the video motivate Assaf to do
A. Rejuvenate local ecology. B. Quit her job as an architect.
C. Facilitate landscape connectivity. D. Monitor biodiversity conservation.
26. What does Assaf highlight in paragraph 4
A. The importance of greening. B. The causes of desertification.
C. The urgency to conserve nature. D. The difficulty in fighting drought.
27. What does Assaf think is crucial to her mission
A. Site selection. B. Database creation. C. Business expansion. D. Community engagement.
【答案】24. D 25. A 26. A 27. D
【解析】
【导语】新闻报道(记叙为主)。文章报道了迪玛·阿萨夫在约旦采用宫胁造林法，通过复层混交林快速重建原生森林，以恢复生态并应对干旱。她强调绿化的重要性和社区参与，与学校、企业等多方合作，促进公民主导的物种恢复行动。
24. 词义猜测题(代词的指代)。划线词“that”为代词，需指代前文就近的核心信息。根据第一段中Assaf的话语 “There were elephants, rhinos and the Asiatic lion, animals which used to live together with people here.” 可知，她提到约旦境内曾有大象、犀牛、亚洲狮等野生动物与人类共同生活，随后说 “Discovering that made me see the landscape from a different perspective.”，由此可知，划线词 that 具体指代约旦境内野生动物与人类曾经共存的历史景象，故选D。
25. 细节理解题。根据第二段内容，Assaf看了一段关于摩洛哥2000年人造森林的视频，视频中干旱的国家里有繁茂的人造森林，这一画面激励了她；且她决定在自己的祖国约旦做同样的事，结合后文她在约旦培育本土森林、恢复生态的行为可知，这段视频激励她去恢复当地的生态环境，故选A。
26. 细节理解题。第四段中 Assaf 指出，并非干旱导致土地荒芜，而是土地荒芜引发干旱，还强调“the more we work on greening, the more we give nature the ability to restore itself”(我们越致力于绿化，就越能赋予大自然自我修复的能力)。整段内容围绕绿化的作用展开，核心是突出开展绿化工作的重要性，而非沙漠化的原因、保护自然的紧迫性或对抗干旱的难度，故选A。
27. 细节理解题。根据最后一段第一句“Assaf always emphasizes it is important to have people participate in growing forests.”以及她与学校、大学、城市和企业合作，将其视为“公民主导的物种恢复行动”的表述可知，Assaf 认为她的使命中至关重要的一点是让社区民众参与进来，故选D。
C
As digital communication becomes the primary way many people connect, the language we use in these spaces is constantly evolving. Texting has developed its own dialect, filled with abbreviations like “hru ” (how are you ). While nearly all texters use these shortcuts, the findings suggest that dashing off a swift “hru ” might not appear as genuine as taking the time to spell out: “How are you ”
“While abbreviations can save time and effort, our research suggests that they may also slow down effective communication and negatively influence interpersonal perceptions,” the authors write in Journal of Experimental Psychology.
The findings challenge the common assumption about texting culture. While 99% of people report using abbreviations and 84% believe others don’t mind them, the research shows that abbreviated messages consistently create negative impressions. Perhaps most tellingly, only 15.8% of participants correctly predicted this negative impact, while 80% assumed others would be indifferent to abbreviations.
David Fang at Stanford University and his colleagues ran the studies to explore the impact of abbreviations in different messaging scenarios. They examined over 200,000 conversations from 686 users spanning 37 countries and five continents. Researchers calculated the percentage of abbreviations participants used in their messages. They discovered a clear pattern: conversations containing more abbreviations consistently died out faster.
“Our research reveals that texting abbreviations negatively affect interpersonal communication by decreasing perceived effort, which in turn leads to lower perceived sincerity and responsiveness. Ultimately, our findings highlight the importance of considering the impact of evolving language use in the digital era on the quality of interpersonal communication,” Fang and his colleagues concluded.
Texting abbreviations could contribute to loneliness if people find that social bonds weaken over time because they receive less frequent or positive replies to their texts, Fang said. But he doesn’t believe people should stop using abbreviations altogether.
“We often tailor the effort we put into conversations to match the significance of the relationship. In some cases, it makes sense to invest less effort, like quickly texting with a delivery driver,” Fang said. “However, our findings are especially relevant when we want to strengthen social ties, such as at the beginning of a relationship or when we need to make a good impression.”
28. What do the findings indicate about texting abbreviations
A. They make senders seem insincere. B. They have evolved over a long time.
C. They reshape digital communication. D. They are a shortcut to learning dialects.
29. What do texters commonly assume about abbreviations
A. They could become trendy. B. They would not bother others.
C. They could ruin communication. D. They would damage social connections.
30. Fang's research reveals that the use of abbreviations is perceived as ________.
A. the evolution of language B. a lower effort from the sender
C. an improved conversational quality D. the preference for a shorter conversation
31. What is Fang's view on using abbreviations
A. It enhances social ties. B. It should be abandoned.
C. It depends on the context. D. It can simplify the content.
【答案】28. A 29. B 30. B 31. C
【解析】
【导语】说明文。短文介绍了斯坦福大学David Fang团队的一项研究发现：数字沟通中使用的短信缩写虽能节省时间，却会给人留下负面印象，降低沟通的有效性，还可能影响人际关系。同时研究人员也指出缩写的使用可根据沟通场景灵活调整。
28. 细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“dashing off a swift ‘hru ’ might not appear as genuine as taking the time to spell out: ‘How are you ’”以及第五段中“texting abbreviations negatively affect interpersonal
communication by decreasing perceived effort, which in turn leads to lower perceived sincerity and
responsiveness”可知，研究发现短信缩写会让接收方觉得发送方付出的努力更少，进而认为其缺乏真诚，即缩写会让发送者看起来不真诚，故选A。
29. 细节理解题。根据第三段中“While 99% of people report using abbreviations and 84% believe others don’t mind them”以及“80% assumed others would be indifferent to abbreviations”可知，使用短信缩写的人普遍认为，这些缩写形式并不会给别人带来困扰，别人对此是不在意的，故选B。
30. 细节理解题。根据第五段中Fang团队的研究结论“Our research reveals that texting abbreviations negatively affect interpersonal communication by decreasing perceived effort”可知，这项研究发现，使用短信缩写会让人们认为，信息发送者在沟通中付出的努力更少，这也是其影响人际沟通的核心原因，故选B。
31. 推理判断题。根据最后两段内容可知，Fang并不认为人们应该完全停止使用缩写，他提出人们会根据人际关系的重要性调整沟通中的投入，比如和配送员沟通时可随意使用缩写，而在想要巩固社交关系、留下好印象的场景中则需注意；由此可推知，Fang认为短信缩写的使用要依据具体的沟通语境来定，故选C。

Ask Google’s AI video tool to create a film of a time-travelling doctor who flies around in a blue British phone booth and the result, unsurprisingly, resembles Doctor Who. And if you ask OpenAI’s technology to do the same, a similar thing happens. What’s wrong with that, you may think The answer could be one of the biggest issues AI chiefs face as their era-defining technology becomes ever more widespread in our lives.
Google and OpenAI’s generative artificial intelligence is supposed to be just that—generative, meaning it develops novel answers to our questions. But how much of that output is original The problem is working out how much AI tools like Sora 2 and Veo 3 rely on someone else’s art to come up with their own inventions. One firm, however, claims to be able to shine a light on the issue.
TraceID by Vermillio can detect the percentage to which AI-generated content is based on copyrighted materials. One of the platform’s abilities is to create neural fingerprints for brands, characters or other IP. These fingerprints act as digital identifiers that map the unique characteristics of a given piece of content. By comparing this fingerprint against AI-generated content, it can determine how much the new content overlaps with the original, offering a percentage-based match.
The research showcases this process in action, using well-known films such as Doctor Who and James Bond as case studies. The findings Sora matched up to 62% with James Bond fingerprint, Google’s Veo 3 matched 80% to Doctor Who fingerprint, implying that they have leaned heavily on copyright-protected work to produce its output.
Many creative professionals demand compensation and an end to unauthorized use of their work until permissions are granted. They argue AI tools build on their work without remuneration, producing competing creations that undercut their industries.
Kathleen Grace, head of Vermillio, said: “We can all win if we just take a beat and figure out a way to share and track content. This would encourage copyright holders to release more data to AI companies and would give AI companies access to more interesting sets of data. Instead of giving all the money to AI companies, there would be this amazing ecosystem.”
32. What issue is presented at the beginning of the passage
A. Generative AI reinvents film production.
B. The capabilities of generative AI are expanding.
C. Generative AI is becoming increasingly widespread.
D. Copyrighted materials are used in AI-generated content.
33. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. Who uses TraceID. B. How TraceID works.
C. Why TraceID is developed. D. Where TraceID is used.
34. What does the underline word “remuneration” in paragraph 5 mean
A. Delay. B. Pay. C. Effort. D. Warning.
35. What message does Kathleen Grace want to convey
A. Limiting data hurts scientific progress. B. Copyright holders should release more data.
C. A fair data-sharing ecosystem benefits all. D. AI firms must disclose copyrighted content use.
【答案】32. D 33. B 34. B 35. C
【解析】
【导语】说明文。谷歌与 OpenAI 的生成式 AI 虽能创作新内容，但其原创性存疑，大量依赖受版权保护的作品。Vermillio 公司的 TraceID 技术可检测 AI 内容对版权材料的依赖比例，研究显示 Sora 和 Veo 3 高度依赖版权内容。创作者要求获得补偿，Grace 则倡导公平的数据共享生态。
32. 推理判断题。文章开头以谷歌和 OpenAI 的 AI 工具生成类似《神秘博士》的视频为例，直接提出核心问题：生成式 AI 本应创作原创内容，但其产出却高度相似于受版权保护的经典作品，本质是AI 生成内容中存在使用受版权保护材料的现象，这是作者在开头直接呈现的核心议题，故选D。
33. 主旨大意题。第三段先介绍 Vermillio公司的TraceID工具能检测AI生成内容基于版权素材的占比，随后具体说明该工具的工作流程：为品牌、角色等知识产权生成“神经指纹”，这些指纹作为映射内容独特特征的数字标识符，再通过将该指纹与AI生成内容对比，确定新内容与原作的重叠度并给出百分比匹配结果。整段内容围绕TraceID工具的工作原理展开，故选B。
34. 词义猜测题。根据第五段内容，众多创意从业者要求获得补偿，并要求在获得许可前停止未经授权使用他们的作品，后接定语从句“他们认为 AI 工具在没有____的情况下以他们的作品为基础进行创作，产出的竞品还会冲击他们的行业”，结合前文“要求获得补偿”的诉求可推知，此处指AI工具使用了他们的作品却没有给予相应的报酬，因此“remuneration”的含义为“报酬、酬劳”，与 Pay 同义，故选B。
35. 推理判断题。根据最后一段 Kathleen Grace 的表述，她认为只要花时间找到共享和追踪内容的方法，所有人都能受益；这一方式会鼓励版权方向AI公司开放更多数据，也能让AI公司获取更丰富的数据集，最终形成一个良好的生态系统，而非让所有收益都归AI公司所有。由此可推知，Kathleen Grace想要传达的信息是一个公平的数共享生态系统对所有人都有益，故选C。

Sharing is an essential part of our daily lives. When you share your experiences with your peers, they are more likely to feel comfortable sharing their own. ___36___ If the thought of sharing your experiences holds you back because you believe that you don’t have big experiences to share, then, you should get over it right away because all experiences are equally valuable. Here are the tips to make your sharing experience more effective.
___37___ Make sure that you go into as much detail as possible. Try to picturise your experience for others so that they can just feel like you do. Share with them what you feel and why you feel that way. Start by sharing when you had the idea for what you are sharing. Then share what happened or what you thought. After that, share why it is important to you or why you think the way you do.
Explain the words. ___38___ Would you understand every word of your dialogue if you were from another community If not, consider defining the jargon. As an alternative to saying to your global peers, “I love Kathakali and you should definitely watch it someday.” Say something like: “I love Kathakali, which is a form of folk dance, in which the dancers present a drama wearing unique masks. You should watch it someday.”
Be fearless. While sharing an experience, you do not have to be embarrassed, afraid to open up. ___39___ For example, suppose you are discussing gender equality, and some of your peers support the idea that women can only work in certain professions, and you disagree with them. Then, instead of fearing what people would think if you said something unconventional, just say it.
Now that you have read my tips for sharing, go share your own experiences, ideas, and thoughts with the rest of the world. Remember that no experience is too big or too small. ___40___ Whatever you share would be unique and new to someone who has had different experiences or has different perspectives from you.

56. 考查冠词。句意：与其他三个不同，麦积山石窟是一系列开凿在麦积山山体一侧的洞窟。a series of 为固定搭配，意为“一系列；一连串”，故填 a。
57. 考查副词。句意：这些洞窟无疑是一座大型的雕塑博物馆。此处修饰整个系表结构 is a large sculpture museum，需用副词作状语，undoubted 的副词形式为 undoubtedly，意为“无疑；肯定地”，故填 undoubtedly。

59. 考查非谓语动词。句意：少数由岩石雕刻而成的雕塑是从其他地方运来的。本句已有谓语have been brought in，且无连词，此处为非谓语动词作定语，sculptures与create之间为被动关系，需用过去分词形式，故填created。
60. 考查非谓语动词。句意：从雕像的造型和服饰来看，大部分都体现了汉族的特色。judging from为固定独立主格结构，意为“根据……判断；从……来看”，无论主句主语是什么，该结构都用judging 形式，句首单词首字母大写，故填Judging。
61. 考查时态和语态。句意：这些石窟从公元 384 年开始，历经1500年的时间开凿，一直持续到20世纪初。本句描述的是过去发生的动作，时态用一般过去时；主语The grottoes与动词carve之间为被动关系，需用一般过去时的被动语态，主语为复数，be动词用were，故填were carved。
62. 考查名词。句意：这些洞窟不易到达，因此在历史上的动荡时期躲过了大部分破坏。此处作动词 escaping 的宾语，且前面有 much of the 修饰，需用名词形式，destroy 的名词形式为 destruction，意为“破坏；毁坏”，为不可数名词，故填destruction。
63. 考查介词。句意：通往石窟并环绕石窟的楼梯最初是木制的，出于安全考虑，这些楼梯已逐步被金属支架取代。for safety reasons 为固定搭配，意为“出于安全考虑”，故填for。

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。
For our long-service leave, my husband and I decided to travel around Tasmania with our camper trailer(野营拖车). We were coming all the way across Western Australia to get there — not exactly a “lap of the map”, but still a big trip. We’d packed our bikes, surfboards and our dog.
It was all going beautifully until we got to St Helens in Tasmania. We were looking forward to hitting the bike trails and the beach. But what was meant to be a fun day of mountain biking quickly turned into a stressful, late-night rescue when my husband broke his leg on the trail.
Thanks to the incredible local emergency services, he was located, rescued and airlifted to hospital. As I watched him being flown off the mountain by helicopter, relief flooded through me — and then reality hit. I was now solely responsible for the dog, the vehicle and the camper trailer still set up back at the campsite. Packing up the trailer was a two-person job. My family and friends were 4,000 km away in Western Australia. And my dog needed a walk!
The next day, new neighbours arrived at the campsite. Exhausted and worried, I managed a small smile as a man named Sam said hello and began setting up with his wife. I wondered what they thought—a solo woman with a dog, no partner in sight, and a camper trailer full of gear(齿轮).
Eventually, Sam’s curiosity got the better of him. He asked a few gentle questions and, after two days of silent stress, the whole story poured out.
Sam listened patiently, kindly. He nodded, said little, and returned to his own camp. That evening, he and his wife, Hillary, did something extraordinary. With no hesitation, they told me they’d pack everything up for me. “Tasmania has given us a warm hug,” they said. “Now we want to pass that hug on.”

【语篇导读】本文以旅行遭遇意外为线索展开，讲述了作者和丈夫带着露营装备、宠物狗环游塔斯马尼亚时，丈夫骑行受伤被送往医院，作者独自面对收拾露营拖车、照顾宠物等难题，陷入孤立无援的困境，此时新邻居Sam和Hillary主动伸出援手，帮助作者渡过难关的温暖故事，凸显了陌生人之间善举的力量。
【详解】
1. 段落续写
①由第一段首句“The next morning, true to their word, they arrived ready to help.”可知，第一段可描写Sam和Hillary兑现承诺前来帮忙的具体场景：收拾露营拖车的难度(呼应前文“Packing up the trailer was a two-person job”)、两人的分工配合、作者的感受，可结合丈夫电话指导的细节，突出帮忙过程的不易和两人的细心，体现他们的真诚善意。
②由第二段首句“But their kindness didn’t stop there.”可知，第二段需续写两人进一步的帮助：不仅帮忙收拾拖车，还在情感上给予作者关怀(如邀请共进晚餐、陪伴谈心等)，描写作者在陌生人的善意中获得慰藉的心理变化，呼应原文“Tasmania has given us a warm hug, now we want to pass that hug on”，升华善意传递的主题。
2. 续写线索：邻居履约帮忙——分工协作收拾拖车(丈夫电话指导)——完成收拾，作者获救——善意延续(邀请陪伴、分享温暖)——作者感受慰藉——铭记这份善意，凸显主题

The next morning, true to their word, they arrived ready to help. And what followed was no small task. My husband, still in a hospital bed, talked us through the process over the phone. It was complex and physically demanding. Piece by piece, with calm and methodical care, Sam worked it all out, while Hillary offered encouragement, guidance and good humour. After two hours, the camper was ready to go. It would have taken
me days on my own and, even then, I’m not sure I could have done it.
But their kindness didn't stop there. They invited me to join them for dinner and a seat at their campfire, sharing their food, their warmth and their company. I hadn’t realized how much I needed that simple kindness. It felt like the first deep breath I’d taken in days. I will never forget that holiday. Not just because of the accident, or the brilliance of the emergency services, but because of Sam and Hillary. They gave me a warm Tasmanian hug–just when I needed it most.
