Formal education was frowned upon, and Tara spent her childhood working alongside her parents mixing herbs with her mother and helping her father in his scrapyard(废料场). Books were rare in their home, and Tara's learning was limited to what her parents chose to teach.As Tara grew older, she became aware of the world beyond her family's isolated home. Her curiosity about education deepened. At the age of 16, she decided to change her life and pursue formal learning, a decision that created tension within her family. With no formal schooling, Tara taught herself basic subjects, often studying late into the night. When she finally gained admission to college, she faced enormous challenges: she struggled to keep up with classmates and often doubted her ability to succeed.College life was not easy. With no formal schooling background, she had to teach herself everything from basic math to history, it was a journey filled with obstacles and moments of self-doubt, The idea of sitting in a college classroom seemed almost impossible. Yet, she persevered, driven by a desire to understand and grow.Entering college, Tara faced not only academic challenges but deep-seated fears from her upbringing. Every classroom discussion seemed overwhelming, every historical fact she hadn’t learned made her feel out of place. But Tara found teachers who believed in her potential. They guided her, and she started to see herself as more than her past. Over time, Tara's endurance paid off. She earned a doctorate at Cambridge, transforming her life and redefining what was possible.Looking back, Tara realized her journey was not just about gaining knowledge it was about facing challenges bravely and having the courage to redefine who she really was.27.What prevented Tara from formal education during her childhood A.Her young age.

Meet Friend: a new wearable AI companion that you wear around your neck. The small device records your every word and interaction and responds accordingly by text. They cost $99 and are expected to ship out in early 2025.The device comes at a time when loneliness and social isolation (孤独) are at record highs. Studies indicate that 61% of young people in the U.S. suffer from serious loneliness, a statistic that reveals a growing mental health crisis. While AI reshapes all the ways we interact in jobs, healthcare and entertainment — more and more people report feeling socially isolated, Schiffmann, Meet Friend’s founder, sees it differently: the device isn’t a replacement for human relationships but rather a way to fill the gaps when human companionship is hard to come by.AI companionship is controversial (有争议的). While some people, like Schiffmann, argue that it can help people feel less isolated, others worry that AI relationships might displace real human connections, and thus make people feel more lonely. If you are someone who already struggles with human interactions, the thinking goes, why would you continue to subject yourself to them when you have an AI friend who's fun and uncomplicated, and doesn’t come with all the baggage of another person But so far, the research doesn’t seem to support this fear. Drake-Maples at Stanford University surveyed more than 1,000 students who used the AI chatbot Replika, and investigated their feelings of loneliness and perceived social support. Roughly half of these users reported decreased anxiety, and a feeling of social support. Nearly a quarter of those surveyed said they are more able to handle stress in their current relationship because of Replika’s advice.It is still a new field though, and Drake-Maples says there needs to be guidelines. “I strongly believe that you do need to have ethical guidelines around AI companions pushing people back when appropriate, towards human relationships,” she says. These could be gentle reminders like “Hey, you should go chat with somebody about that” or “Go practice this now with a real human.”31.What is Meet Friend aimed at A.Replacing human relationships.B.Boosting the productivity at work.C.Offering a new approach to connection.D.Detecting early symptoms of mental illness.32.What does the underlined part “the thinking” in paragraph 3 refer to A.AI helps avoid life’s stress.B.AI worsens feelings of loneliness.C.Human relationships are hard to keep.D.It's easy to communicate with an AI friend.33.What is Drake-Maples’ attitude towards AI companionship A.Cautious. B.Unclear.C.Supportive. D.Disapproving.34.Which of the following is the best title for the text A.Can we trust an AI friend B.Will AI change human nature C.Can an AI friend make us less lonely D.Will AI redefine mental health crisis Stan Lee lived an extraordinary life without the need for superpowers. He was the creative force behind Marvel Comics. His stories brought new life to the comic book industry, transforming it from a small special interest into a worldwide hit that connected with adults and achieved a success no one had expected before.Growing up in poverty in Manhattan, Stanley Leiber had found comfort in literature. His love for the written word fueled his eagerness to write the Great American Novel — an idea every American writer had long been lost in figuring out the essence of America. However, his path led him to comic books, where he initially met with disrespect from the contemporary writers. Little did they know that when he penned his first comic script as “Stan Lee” in 1941, he was putting on his own superhero costume.His characters broke new ground by weaving everyday human struggles into superhuman abilities, creating a unique mix of recognizable emotions and extraordinary power. Reed Richards could stretch beyond limits when facing Doctor Doom, Peter Parker’s life was a mix of teenage. worries and Spider-Man’s heroics, and Ben Grimm’s tough appearance as the “Thing” hid a heart full of courage.Despite his success, Stan Lee encountered challenges. Key cooperatives like Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko felt overlooked, and Marvel faced financial hardships during the 1980s and 1990s. His attempts at television were mostly unsuccessful, but Hollywood eventually held out its olive branch, particularly to the Spider-Man and X-Men series, giving him praise and wealth.Yet financial success was bittersweet. Stan Lee received no extra money for his creations and had to fight to be recognized and paid fairly. In 2001, he founded POW! Entertainment to gain more control over his work. Legal battles marked his final years as he sought to claim his rightful share of the world he helped build.Stan Lee’s legacy extends beyond his stories. He made short appearances in very popular films based on his characters, being a modest figure in the exciting events he had a part in creating. His life turned an ordinary man into a legend.35.What did Stan Lee dream of originally A.Developing the comic book industry. B.Shaking off poverty for the family.C.Becoming a superhero on the film scene. D.Claiming a place in the fiction world.36.What’s the difference between Stan Lee’s characters and those that came before him A.Their final missions were to rescue the real world.B.Their abilities were super and more extraordinary.C.They combined normal humans with superpowers.D.They mainly focused on solving humans’ problems.37.What’s the turning point of weathering the storm for Marvel A.Hollywood’s embrace. B.The attempts of television show.C.Key cooperatives’ withdrawal. D.The Spider-Man and X-Men series’ success.38.Which of the following can best describe Stan Lee A.Imaginative and innovative. B.Conservative and goal-driven.C.Clever and performance-loving. D.Generous and cooperative.High school can be a busy and stressful time, with numerous assignments, extracurricular activities, and social events to juggle.

When I walk in the halls at school, I have to squeeze in between the bigger kids to get by. At the playground, sometimes even little kids try to boss me around. Mia, my best friend, is so tall that when she walks, I have to jog to keep up with her.I used to try to make myself taller whenever I could, but I was the same height every time. Frustrating! “Don’t worry,” Mum always said. “Being small has its advantages.” “Really I could never notice any.”One day, Mrs. Alvarez announced to the class that we’d be putting on a spring play. I practiced all the lines. But at the audition, when I walked up to the stage, Mrs. Alvarez cried, “You’ll be perfect as the elf! You’re just the right size for the costume.” I never even got a chance to deliver the lines I’d practiced. Back home I grumbled (咕哝) to Mum that I had been made an elf. But she bet I would be the best elf. To please her, I went to rehearsals, though I only had two lines.Mia got the lead role — a girl wandering through a magical fairy forest in search of her lost dog. In the last scene, she finds a box under a giant mushroom, and when she opens it, her dog jumps out. Mrs. Alvarez’s dog, Prince, played the dog role. She brought him to all the rehearsals, and when he wasn’t onstage, we got to play with him, but he seemed to like me best.The night of the show, my first line came early. Since my only other line was toward the end, I waited offstage, playing with Prince. Finally, the grand end came, and Prince was brought onstage inside the box. But the box was found empty. Mrs. Alvarez said, “A burst of noise frightened him away. I see him under the stage!”注意:1.续写词数应为150字左右;2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。“How can we get Prince out from beneath the stage ” Mrs. Alvarez asked.____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Having no other ideas, Mrs. Alvarez nodded to me.____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________参考答案1.【答案】C【听力材料】W: Hi, Michael.

My name’s David Johnson. I started the school and I’m the school’s chief instructor. I learned my survival skills while I was in the army, and before starting the Hillside Survival School, I worked at various camping sites. So, let me tell you about what happens on some of our courses. The most popular course is our basic survival course which lasts a weekend and takes place throughout the year. This course teaches you the basic skills that you need to survive in the wilderness and costs two hundred dollars per person. Come and join us! Imagine how much more fun you’ll have on a sunny weekend here than you just lie on the sofa at home. If you want an even bigger challenge, our extreme survival course takes place between November and February when the conditions are more difficult. These courses cost two hundred and twenty pounds per person. If you come with a group of more than ten people, each of you will get a 10% discount. The extreme survival course teaches you to survive in a wet and cold environment. No tents, no gas cookers; just you and the wilderness. You learn to find food and cook it over an open fire. You learn to build a shelter and then you actually sleep in it. You will probably be surprised how well you can work under difficult conditions through this course.【听力材料】M: Good evening and thank you for coming to find out about the Hillside Survival School.

So, let me tell you about what happens on some of our courses. The most popular course is our basic survival course which lasts a weekend and takes place throughout the year. This course teaches you the basic skills that you need to survive in the wilderness and costs two hundred dollars per person. Come and join us! Imagine how much more fun you’ll have on a sunny weekend here than you just lie on the sofa at home. If you want an even bigger challenge, our extreme survival course takes place between November and February when the conditions are more difficult. These courses cost two hundred and twenty pounds per person. If you come with a group of more than ten people, each of you will get a 10% discount. The extreme survival course teaches you to survive in a wet and cold environment. No tents, no gas cookers; just you and the wilderness. You learn to find food and cook it over an open fire. You learn to build a shelter and then you actually sleep in it. You will probably be surprised how well you can work under difficult conditions through this course.【答案】21.A 22.D 23.B【答案】27.C 28.B 29.B 30.D【答案】31.C 32.B 33.A 34.C【答案】35.D 36.C 37.A 38.A【答案】39.E 40.D 41.B 42.F 43.C【答案】44.B 45.A 46.C 47.B 48.A 49.B 50.B 51.A 52.C 53.C 54.A 55.A 56.D 57.B 58.B【答案】59.have formed 60.a 61.impression/impressions 62.was established 63.twice 64.extremely 65.traditional 66.about 67.believing 68.that/who69.【答案】Dear Michael, Glad to share how AI benefits our classes. Teachers use AI-powered platforms to assign customized tasks, like grammar drills or reading comprehension tailored to each student’s level. Interactive tools analyze our performance instantly, highlighting weak points. Students also leverage AI translation apps during language learning and virtual labs for science experiments. I believe AI makes learning efficient and personalized. It saves teachers’ time on repetitive tasks, allowing them to focus on guiding us. However, we must use it wisely to avoid over-dependence. What’s AI’s role in your school Looking forward to your reply.Yours,Li Hua 展开更多...... 收起↑ 资源预览
