It is common to see most live streamers sitting in front of a desk in a well-decorated room. But Zeng Qinghuan, a 30-year old from Xinhua County in Loudi, Hunan, has turned her whole village into a live streaming set. Her goal is to use e-commerce to help her people live a better life.
Known as “Xiangmei Xinbao” on Douyin, Zeng now has more than 3 million followers. One of her videos about traditional ways of planting and harvesting rice has attracted more than 300,000 followers.
Zeng used to study fashion design and has worked in some big cities before. In 2019 she returned to her village to care for her sick grandmother. She then found that she could build a career there—by being a live streamer with the help of her cousin.
At the beginning, she didn’t make any money. Zeng’s parents didn’t give her any support until she could stand on her own feet and help people sell their products. She has now sold local agricultural products worth tens of millions of yuan, like fermented tofu, preserved pork and dried sweet potatoes.
“I’m a daughter of the great mountains. I can also be a contributor to rural development in these new times,” she said.
Rural revitalization (振兴) is a key part of China’s 14th Five-Year Plan (2021-25). Zeng hopes her experience can encourage more young people to return to their rural hometowns and start their own businesses. In 2021,after she became a deputy (代表) of the Loudi Municipal People’s Congress, she put forward a proposal to ensure that “each village has one product and one live streaming host of its own”. She plans to help cultivate 100 social media influencers from her county within three years, and two villages have taken part in the project, “I believe that the rural areas will become a big stage, and being a farmer will be seen as a respectable job too,” said Zeng.
24. What do we know about Zeng’s live streaming career
A. It was encouraged by her sick grandmother.
B. It brought her a fortune as soon as it was started.
C. It was a great success with the help of her parents.
D. It inspired more local villagers to follow.
25 What is Zeng going to do from the last paragraph
A. Invite more young people to her hometown.
B. Train more social media influencers in her county.
C. Expand her business to make more money.
D. Produce more agricultural products to help the farmers.
26. Which of the following best describes Zeng
A. Down-to-earth and ambitious. B. Responsible and modest.
C. Gifted and faithful. D. Caring and fashionable.

Nearly 700,000 people have taken part in the world’s largest wildlife survey, helping to countthe numbers of wild birds in the UK. The Big Garden Bird watch is organized every year by a charity called the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB). It is a chance for people to record the birds that visit their garden, balcony or local green space. The survey gives the RSPB a snap shot of how different types of birds are doing, and whether their populations are going up ordown.
This year more than 11 million birds were counted. The house sparrow was the most commonly-seen garden bird, with more than 1.7 million recorded sightings. However, despitehitting the top spot, its numbers are lower than in 2021.
There was a rise in greenfinch numbers, which gives hope that the species may be recovering from a big drop in population over the last 30 years, mainly caused by disease. The survey alsoshowed that numbers of jay, a colourful member of the crow family, have increased by 73%compared to 2021.
Almost 60,000 schoolchildren took part in the survey, which involved spending an hour innature counting different types of birds. Wood pigeons were the most commonly spotted by schools,with an average of eight seen by the schools that took part. Blackbirds came a close second.
The Big Garden Birdwatch has been running since 1979, providing valuable information onthe welfare of the UK’s wild birds for the last 43 years. The RSPB’s chief executive officer. Rebecca Speight said, “I’s been brilliant to see so many people taking part this year, taking timeout to watch and reconnect with birds.” she added. “Spring is amazing. Spring sees the return of nature’s biggest music festival, the dawn chorus. Open your back door, a window or simply stepoutside and listen.”
28. The Big Garden Birdwatch is held every year to ________.

In the Beijing Winter Olympics, we were treated to incredible displays of athletic talents ascompetitors took to the snow and ice. As a popular sport at the Winter Olympics, ski jumping is oneof the best examples to showcase the “superhuman” power of athletes.
Ski jumpers soar into the air and appear to be almost flying in the sky. How do they achieve this Physics call offer us an explanation of how they make it. It involves the use of the laws of aerodynamics(空气动力学)to fight against gravity and increase lift while reducing drag.
To understand how ski jumping works, we need to consider three elements: gravity, lift and drag. Gravity is the force that pulls us towards an object. Lift occurs when an object is moving through the air—as its surface comes into contact with air particles(微粒), the particles are pushed down and away from the object, allowing it to move up. At the same time, this interaction createsdrag, and slows down an object’s movement.
While there is nothing that the skiers can do about gravity, they can twist their bodies into positions to allow them to achieve greater lift and avoid as much drag as possible. According to the Smithsonian Magazine, “To do this, athletes try their best to make their skis and body nearly parallel to the ground and place their skis in a V-shape just outside the form of the body. This position increases the surface area that produces lift and puts them in the ideal angle that will also maximize(最大化)lift.”
Because of how the sport works, athletes’ equipment is strictly controlled according to weight and height in order to avoid any unfair advantages. This means suits must be tight in order to ensure athletes cannot use them as a way to gain more lift. For athletes, minor day-to-day waterweight changes as little as 300 grams. It can mean that suits will not be tight enough according to their body mass indexes(体重指数).
32. What does the underlined word “It” refer to in the second paragraph
A. Athletic talent. B. Ski jumping.
C. Physical science. D. Superhuman power.
33. What contributes to lift in ski jumping
A. The interaction between force and drag.
B. The interaction between gravity and balance.
C. The interaction between skiers and air particles.
D. The interaction between air particles and gravity.
34 What is required to ensure fair play in ski jumping
A. Standardized equipment. B. Specially made suits.
C. Strict control of athletes’ height. D. Much daily water intake.
35. What’s the main focus of the text
A. The techniques used by ski jumpers.
B. Rules of the ski jumping competition.
C. Excellent performances in ski jumping.
D. The scientific principles behind ski jumping.

China welcomed three heroic astronauts home on April 16. The re-entry module carrying astronauts touched down safely at the Dongfeng Landing Site in Inner Mongolia autonomous region. This ended the Shenzhou XIII astronauts’ six-month space mission. This return marks a major breakthrough for China’s efforts in space. ____36____
Speed record
The mission set a new speed record. The Shenzhou XII return capsule revolved around the Earth 11 times over 24 hours. ____37____ The Shenzhou XIII mission was simplified to only five orbits and was designed to return more efficiently, according to the Chinese Academy of Space Technology.
____38____It also needed more accurate orbital calculations. This meant that when the spacecraft separated, it could quickly target the landing area, calculate the return path, and adjust its altitude, Wang Ya’nan, editor-in-chief of Beijing-based Aerospace Knowledge magazine, told the Global Times.
Temperature control
Another challenge for astronauts returning to Earth is traveling through the atmosphere. After the re-entry capsule enters the atmosphere, there is fierce friction with the air. ____39____ To solve this problem, the researchers designed a heat-resistant coating on the surface of the Shenzhou XIII return capsule. They also laid a layer of a special material that takes away the heat.
Landing
The re-entry capsule landed upright in the right area. Such a landing position is rare in China’s space flight history. ____40____ To achieve this, astronauts must operate and let go of parachute (降落伞) with accurate timing. Landing upright is the ideal way to land, ensuring astronauts have the softest landing, Pang Zhihao, a spaceflight researcher in Beijing, told Science and Technology Daily.
A. We have made great efforts to land successfully for years.
B. Let’s look at some of the technical details of the mission.
C. Some strategies may help you better understand the mission.
D. This approach required more precise control of the spacecraft.
E. The surface temperature of the capsule can reach thousands of degrees.
F. Shenzhou XIII shortened the time to about 9 hours, orbiting Earth five times.
G. So far, only Shenzhou VI and Shenzhou XIII have achieved an upright landing.

On a hot September afternoon, Peter and his friend Isabel were on their way to the library. When they passed by Tubman park, Isabel suggested cutting through it to get to the library. As they entered the park, the sight of the swings (秋千) and the merry-go-round brought back a flood of memories of their childhood spent there. But now everything looked so old, sad, and dirty. Litter lay on the ground next to an overflowing trash bin. There were still young schoolchildren playing there but they had to avoid the trash that littered the playground. A little boy told them that the city took the other trash cans away and the remaining one never got emptied often.
As they headed toward the library, the two high school students wrinkled their forehead. In the library, they encountered Mrs. Evans, their kind-hearted fifth-grade teacher, retired yet still passionate. Mrs. Evans listened as Isabel and Peter eagerly explained what they’d seen. Finally, she recommended them to go to the City Hall to voice their concerns.
The next day, Isabel and Peter went into the building of the City Hall but were met with an impatient officer. They were informed that the city couldn’t help with their problem due to a tight budget. Discouraged, they left and turned to Mrs. Evans for help.
Under her guidance, they decided to ask Go Green, a non-profit organization whose goal is to protect the environment, for help. “This group is good at raising money for projects just like yours, ” said Mrs. Evans. She promised to arrange them to present their ideas to Go Green. Hearing this, their face lit up.
Two main tasks remained ahead: researching ways to clean up the park and preparing a convincing presentation. As Isabel was good at researching while Peter always had a talent for speaking, they cooperated quite well. Isabel learned from a science magazine that a new type of trash bin can squeeze the trash down without being emptied often, which saves time, money, and energy. Based on this, Peter practiced his presentation over and over again.
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。
A week later, Peter stood nervously at the back of the hall where Go Green was meeting.

After the meeting, Isabel excitedly told Peter the good news.

【原文】W: So how can you ever know what is going on in cats’ minds
M: Well, if a cat moves its head, that just means it wants to look at you, or at something else.
W: And what about cats who sit with their tails wrapped around them
M: It’s usually a sign of contented cat. And do you know cats often clean themselves with their tongue
W: Really That’s interesting. So what other body language do cats show
Oh there are all sorts of things. If your cat is feeling confident or curious, its ears will point upwards and slightly forward. This will let him hear as much as possible.
W: So, do you think cats can understand anything from our body language
M: I’m sure they can. Unlike dogs, who listen carefully to the tone of your voice, cats actually watch your eyes.

【原文】Hi! Bob Richards here. Short videos are becoming increasingly popular these days. To make videos attracting people, you do need some tips. Here’s my advice to get you started.
Do your research! Find out what kind of videos people are into right now by searching for “popular videos online” and then choose your style. Everyone loves watching animals doing funny things, watching people teaching cooking, but the ones with the most likes are often music videos.
Next, think about how you can make something bigger, better and different, something that you and the people you know would like to watch. Your audience will also want to get to know you and avoid being a joker or a film star, just act like yourself.
Practice making very short high-quality videos First. Tell your friends about your videos and ask them for their opinion. However, aim to upload at least 10 good ones before letting them know about your channel. You’ll need to create a video for this which attracts attention.
Make sure you upload new videos with new information at least twice a week. Choose a day and let the people who follow you know. To increase the number of people watching your videos, your title should be as unusual as you like--as always, try to be a bit different but make sure you have a description, and it’s clear.
Many people give up after two or three months because nobody’s watching, but attracting a large audience takes time, often two or three years. It’s hard work, but definitely worth it!

It is common to see most live streamers sitting in front of a desk in a well-decorated room. But Zeng Qinghuan, a 30-year old from Xinhua County in Loudi, Hunan, has turned her whole village into a live streaming set. Her goal is to use e-commerce to help her people live a better life.
Known as “Xiangmei Xinbao” on Douyin, Zeng now has more than 3 million followers. One of her videos about traditional ways of planting and harvesting rice has attracted more than 300,000 followers.
Zeng used to study fashion design and has worked in some big cities before. In 2019 she returned to her village to care for her sick grandmother. She then found that she could build a career there—by being a live streamer with the help of her cousin.
At the beginning, she didn’t make any money. Zeng’s parents didn’t give her any support until she could stand on her own feet and help people sell their products. She has now sold local agricultural products worth tens of millions of yuan, like fermented tofu, preserved pork and dried sweet potatoes.
“I’m a daughter of the great mountains. I can also be a contributor to rural development in these new times,” she said.
Rural revitalization (振兴) is a key part of China’s 14th Five-Year Plan (2021-25). Zeng hopes her experience can encourage more young people to return to their rural hometowns and start their own businesses. In 2021,after she became a deputy (代表) of the Loudi Municipal People’s Congress, she put forward a proposal to ensure that “each village has one product and one live streaming host of its own”. She plans to help cultivate 100 social media influencers from her county within three years, and two villages have taken part in the project, “I believe that the rural areas will become a big stage, and being a farmer will be seen as a respectable job too,” said Zeng.

Nearly 700,000 people have taken part in the world’s largest wildlife survey, helping to countthe numbers of wild birds in the UK. The Big Garden Bird watch is organized every year by a charity called the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB). It is a chance for people to record the birds that visit their garden, balcony or local green space. The survey gives the RSPB a snap shot of how different types of birds are doing, and whether their populations are going up ordown.
This year more than 11 million birds were counted. The house sparrow was the most commonly-seen garden bird, with more than 1.7 million recorded sightings. However, despitehitting the top spot, its numbers are lower than in 2021.
There was a rise in greenfinch numbers, which gives hope that the species may be recovering from a big drop in population over the last 30 years, mainly caused by disease. The survey alsoshowed that numbers of jay, a colourful member of the crow family, have increased by 73%compared to 2021.
Almost 60,000 schoolchildren took part in the survey, which involved spending an hour innature counting different types of birds. Wood pigeons were the most commonly spotted by schools,with an average of eight seen by the schools that took part. Blackbirds came a close second.

In the Beijing Winter Olympics, we were treated to incredible displays of athletic talents ascompetitors took to the snow and ice. As a popular sport at the Winter Olympics, ski jumping is oneof the best examples to showcase the “superhuman” power of athletes.
Ski jumpers soar into the air and appear to be almost flying in the sky. How do they achieve this Physics call offer us an explanation of how they make it. It involves the use of the laws of aerodynamics(空气动力学)to fight against gravity and increase lift while reducing drag.
To understand how ski jumping works, we need to consider three elements: gravity, lift and drag. Gravity is the force that pulls us towards an object. Lift occurs when an object is moving through the air—as its surface comes into contact with air particles(微粒), the particles are pushed down and away from the object, allowing it to move up. At the same time, this interaction createsdrag, and slows down an object’s movement.
While there is nothing that the skiers can do about gravity, they can twist their bodies into positions to allow them to achieve greater lift and avoid as much drag as possible. According to the Smithsonian Magazine, “To do this, athletes try their best to make their skis and body nearly parallel to the ground and place their skis in a V-shape just outside the form of the body. This position increases the surface area that produces lift and puts them in the ideal angle that will also maximize(最大化)lift.”
Because of how the sport works, athletes’ equipment is strictly controlled according to weight and height in order to avoid any unfair advantages. This means suits must be tight in order to ensure athletes cannot use them as a way to gain more lift. For athletes, minor day-to-day waterweight changes as little as 300 grams. It can mean that suits will not be tight enough according to their body mass indexes(体重指数).
32. What does the underlined word “It” refer to in the second paragraph
A. Athletic talent. B. Ski jumping.
C. Physical science. D. Superhuman power.
33. What contributes to lift in ski jumping
A The interaction between force and drag.
B. The interaction between gravity and balance.
C. The interaction between skiers and air particles.
D. The interaction between air particles and gravity.
34. What is required to ensure fair play in ski jumping
A. Standardized equipment. B. Specially made suits.
C. Strict control of athletes’ height. D. Much daily water intake.
35. What’s the main focus of the text
A. The techniques used by ski jumpers.
B. Rules of the ski jumping competition.
C. Excellent performances in ski jumping.
D. The scientific principles behind ski jumping.
【答案】32. B 33. C 34. A 35. D

China welcomed three heroic astronauts home on April 16. The re-entry module carrying astronauts touched down safely at the Dongfeng Landing Site in Inner Mongolia autonomous region. This ended the Shenzhou XIII astronauts’ six-month space mission. This return marks a major breakthrough for China’s efforts in space. ____36____
Speed record
The mission set a new speed record. The Shenzhou XII return capsule revolved around the Earth 11 times over 24 hours. ____37____ The Shenzhou XIII mission was simplified to only five orbits and was designed to return more efficiently, according to the Chinese Academy of Space Technology.
____38____It also needed more accurate orbital calculations. This meant that when the spacecraft separated, it could quickly target the landing area, calculate the return path, and adjust its altitude, Wang Ya’nan, editor-in-chief of Beijing-based Aerospace Knowledge magazine, told the Global Times.
Temperature control
Another challenge for astronauts returning to Earth is traveling through the atmosphere. After the re-entry capsule enters the atmosphere, there is fierce friction with the air. ____39____ To solve this problem, the researchers designed a heat-resistant coating on the surface of the Shenzhou XIII return capsule. They also laid a layer of a special material that takes away the heat.
Landing
The re-entry capsule landed upright in the right area. Such a landing position is rare in China’s space flight history. ____40____ To achieve this, astronauts must operate and let go of parachute (降落伞) with accurate timing. Landing upright is the ideal way to land, ensuring astronauts have the softest landing, Pang Zhihao, a spaceflight researcher in Beijing, told Science and Technology Daily.
A. We have made great efforts to land successfully for years.
B. Let’s look at some of the technical details of the mission.
C. Some strategies may help you better understand the mission.
