17. What was the passers-by’s attitude toward the speaker’s behavior
A. Puzzled. B. Thankful. C. Supportive.
18. Why did the speaker decide to wash the cars

A. A lot of money. B. A precious medal. C. The joy of helping others.
【答案】17. A 18. B 19. A 20. C
【解析】
【原文】I live in the center of the city, where it rarely rains. So cars parked in open parking lots easily collect pollutants and dust. Together with my friends, I decided it should be a kind gesture to surprise the owners with a car wash. Every once in a while, someone would come by and ask us, seemingly stupid men who told you to wash the cars or, even better, who paid you to wash their cars. We explained we just wanted to do something kind, but our response was often met with an even more confused look. As the afternoon went on, some other friends that came by understood our goal of the voluntary event and started helping out with some of the duties. I wasn’t cleaning cars for money. I was cleaning cars simply because I wanted to offer the car owners kindness. I now realize first hand that there is a special energy created when you choose to think bigger than yourself and act in service of others. And maybe, like me, you’ll find it’s actually the greatest gift you ever get.

If you come in summer, peaches, blackberries, red raspberries and sour cherries are available. Apples are ready in late summer, and fall brings green vegetables, potatoes, and dig-your-own peanuts.

Adding to the achievements of a remarkable year, Taylor Swift has been named Time magazine’s Person of the Year for 2023.
Already a superstar before 2023, Swift’s career has reached new heights thanks to the beginning of her Eras Tour that brought her 3.5-hour performance to 66 shows in 23 cities across North America, Argentina and Brazil. Promoted by her tour, Swift has been named the most-streamed female artist in the history of Spotify and Apple Music. According to Billboard, the tour made about $900 million (about 6.4 billion yuan) in 2023. In addition, the tour’s movie Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour became the biggest concert movie of all time, taking more than $250 million globally.
As she was declared (宣布) a billionaire by Bloomberg in November, a hidden “Taylor Swift economy” also promoted sales for business owners across the US. From soaps to a cruise inspired by her different “eras”, interest in Swift-related products went way up.
Apart from her financial contributions, Swift made a significant cultural impact by taking back control of her music. In 2019, her old record label, Big Machine, sold the master tapes of her first six albums (专辑) to Scooter Braun. The sale meant that she didn’t have the rights to the albums. In response to this, Swift began re-recording her first six albums, tagging (加标签于) them “Taylor’s Version”. This move stressed her belief that artists deserve to own their work. “It’s all in how you deal with loss,” she told Time. “I respond to extreme pain by resisting.”
Heading into 2024, Swift will start the Eras Tour again in Japan and Australia. As USA Today noted, “Her current top has been a long time coming, but it may also be just beginning.”
24. What do we know about Taylor Swift
A. She broke a new record on her tour.
B. She toured South America before 2023.
C. Her achievements received great recognition.
D. Her performance began with the Apple Music.
25. How did Taylor Swift benefit from her Eras Tour
A. She proved herself to be an artist.
B. She learned to make some products.
C. She got rich and regained album rights.
D. She sold her master tapes to a company.
26. What can we learn about Taylor Swift from the last paragraph
A. She will end her music career.
B. She will continue her Eras Tour.
C. She will reach her top in Japan.
D. She will make a record in Australia.
27. What is the author’s attitude towards Taylor Swift
A. Admirable. B. Uncaring.
C. Doubtful. D. Critical.
【答案】24. C 25. C 26. B 27. A
【解析】

【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Adding to the achievements of a remarkable year, Taylor Swift has been named Time magazine’s Person of the Year for 2023.(泰勒·斯威夫特被《时代》杂志评为2023年年度人物，为这非凡的一年增添了新的成就。)”可知，泰勒·斯威夫特的成就受到了极大的认可。故选C。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“As she was declared (宣布) a billionaire by Bloomberg in November, a hidden “Taylor Swift economy” also promoted sales for business owners across the US. (去年11月，当她被Bloomberg宣布为亿万富翁时，一种隐藏的“泰勒·斯威夫特经济”也促进了全美企业主的销售。)”以及第四段中“Apart from her financial contributions, Swift made a significant cultural impact by taking back control of her music. (除了经济上的贡献，斯威夫特还通过重新掌控自己的音乐产生了重大的文化影响。)”可知，泰勒·斯威夫特获得了两方面的利益，一方面是获得财富变得富有，另一方面是重新掌控自己的音乐即重新获得专辑版权。故选C。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Heading into 2024, Swift will start the Eras Tour again in Japan and Australia. As USA Today noted, “Her current top has been a long time coming, but it may also be just beginning.”(进入2024年，斯威夫特将再次在日本和澳大利亚开始“时代之旅”。正如《今日美国》所指出的那样，“她现在的巅峰经历了很长时间，但也可能只是刚刚开始。”)”可知，2024年，她将再次在日本和澳大利亚开始巡演，即她将继续她的巡演。故选B。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“Adding to the achievements of a remarkable year, Taylor Swift has been named Time magazine’s Person of the Year for 2023.(泰勒·斯威夫特被《时代》杂志评为2023年年度人物，为这非凡的一年增添了新的成就。)”以及第二段中“Already a superstar before 2023, Swift’s career has reached new heights thanks to the beginning of her Eras Tour that brought her 3.5-hour performance to 66 shows in 23 cities across North America, Argentina and Brazil.(在2023年之前，斯威夫特就已经是一个超级巨星了，她的职业生涯达到了新的高度，这要归功于她的时代巡演的开始，她在北美、阿根廷和巴西的23个城市进行了3.5小时的66场演出。)”可知，在作者看来斯威夫特是超级巨星，并且也是被评委2023年年度人物，故作者对其是非常赞赏的。A选项“Admirable.(赞赏的)”符合作者的态度。故选A。
C
Art museums are full of centuries-old paintings with details of plants that today give us clues about evolution and breeding.
Exhibited at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, The Harvesters created in 1565 shows farmers cutting wheat nearly as tall as they are. “Nowadays, if you walk through a wheat field, you basically see that w heat is about knee height. The short wheat is essentially a consequence of breeding from the second half of the 20th century,” said biologist Ive De Smet.
According to De Smet, wheat is just one example of how historical artworks can allow us to track the transformation of crops over time. He has teamed up with art historian David Vergau wen to seek similar kinds of artworks around the world.
As friends since childhood, their interest in plants in artworks began with a visit to a museum in Russia, where they noticed an old-looking watermelon in an early-7th-century painting. A watermelon is usually believed to be red on the inside. However, that one appeared to be pale and white. De Smet assured the painter had done a poor job. But Verguawen had a different idea. “This is one of the best painters ever in that era. So, if he painted it like that, that’s the way it must have looked like.”
Other paintings revealed that there were both red and white watermelons grown in the 17th century. The chemical compound that makes watermelons red is lycopene (番茄红素). “There must have been some sort of mutation (突变) preventing the accumulation of that color. Now, with all the genetic knowledge that we have of various plant species, we can look in more de tail at how something comes about.”
De Smet and Verguawen hope to create an online research database of historical plant artworks. They call for contributions of art enthusiasts around the world via the social media. But they caution, the source paintings need to be realistic. “If you’re going to use, for example, Picasso’s paintings to try and understand what a pear looked like in the early 20th century, you might be misled.” Instead, such an attempt could be fruitless.
28 What can we infer about wheat from Paragraph 2
A. It became shorter and shorter as it evolved.
B. It was about knee height in the 16th century.
C. It might have had no short varieties before the 1950s.
D. It showed different heights as farmers’ heights changed.
29. What aroused De Smet and Verguswen’s interest in historical plant artworks
A. Their lifelong friendship. B. A white watermelon in a painting.
C. Their professional background. D. An argument over the best painters.
30. Why is Picasso mentioned in the last paragraph
A. To give an example of historical plant artwork.
B. To showcase the contributions of art enthusiasts.
C. To describe the appearance of a pear in the early 20th century.
D. To emphasize the significance of using realistic source paintings.
31. What is the main idea of the text
A. Plant evolution progresses throughout history.
B. Old art provides fascinating insights into agriculture.
C. Ancient art demonstrates the presence of white watermelons.
D. Plants serve as a popular subject in numerous historical artworks.
【答案】28. C 29. B 30. D 31. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文介绍了生物学家Ive De Smet和艺术史学家David Vergauwen如何通过研究历史艺术品中的植物细节，追踪植物的进化和育种过程。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“The short wheat is essentially a consequence of breeding from the second half of the 20th century(矮小麦本质上是20世纪下半叶育种的结果)”可知，矮小麦是20世纪下半叶育种的结果，因此在20世纪50年代之前可能没有矮秆小麦品种。故选C项。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“As friends since childhood, their interest in plants in artworks began with a visit to a museum in Russia, where they noticed an old-looking watermelon in an early-7th-century painting. A watermelon is usually believed to be red on the inside. However, that one appeared to be pale and white.(作为儿时的朋友，他们对艺术品中植物的兴趣始于一次参观俄罗斯的博物馆，在那里他们注意到一幅7世纪早期的画中有一个看起来很老的西瓜。西瓜通常被认为是里面是红色的。然而，那只看起来是淡淡的白色)”可知，画中的白色西瓜激发了德·斯梅特和弗古斯温对历史植物艺术品的兴趣。故选B项。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“But they caution, the source paintings need to be realistic. “If you’re going to use, for example, Picasso’s paintings to try and understand what a pear looked like in the early 20th century, you might be misled.”(但他们警告说，原始画作必须是真实的。“例如，如果你想用毕加索的画来理解20世纪初的梨是什么样子，你可能会被误导。”)”可知，原始画作必须是写实的。而文中提及毕加索画作是为了说明无法通过非写实作品进行研究，强调使用写实原画的重要性。故选D项。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第一段中“Art museums are full of centuries-old paintings with details of plants that today give us clues about evolution and breeding.(艺术博物馆里满是有几百年历史的植物细节画，这些画今天给我们提供了关于进化和繁殖的线索)”及全文内容可知，本文介绍了人们通过艺术博物馆里展出的植物细节画，可以获取植物进化与繁殖细节的线索的事实。故“Old Art Offers Interesting Agricultural Information(古老的艺术提供有趣的农业信息)”是文章主要内容。故选B项。
D
In February, news broke that Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff had taken a “digital detox(脱瘾)”: 10 tech-free days at a French Polynesian resort. For a small group of people, taking a step back from devices is an achievable dream, but for most, it’s an impossibility, especially.
A digital detox requires dismissing technology almost entirely: taking a break from screens, social media and video conferences for multiple days. The goals—reducing stress or anxiety, and reconnecting with the physical world—are well-intentioned. However, experts say a digital detox isn’t practical anymore for most people.
“Technology is very much a part of us now. We bank with an app, read restaurant menus on phones and even sweat with exercise instructors through a screen,” says Seattle-based consultant Emily Cherkin, who specialises in screen-time management. “It’s so embedded(嵌入式的) in our lives, we’re setting ourselves up for failure if we’re going to go phone-free for a week.”
As people become increasingly interdependent on technology, doing a digital detox no longer seems like a reasonable goal. But there may be a more realistic solution that will lessen our tech obsession(着迷), without forcing us to totally disconnect.
Rather than cutting out technology altogether, practice digital mindfulness. Make sure the use of technology is purposeful. Instead of a full detox, digital mindfulness may be more practical for some people: less worry about cutting tech out entirely, and more focus on being intentional with its use.
The goal shouldn’t be to cut off technology or to put a full stop. People still need to send an email, but can do so without getting distracted by the various online contents.
This approach is called “grey detoxing”—you’re not totally immersed(沉浸的) or totally cut off from technology. Instead of causing ourselves more anxiety by attempting to live without our phones for a week, we can approach unavoidable screen time in a way that feels right for our individual lives.
32. Why does the author mention Marc Benioff in paragraph 1
A. To criticize the idea of digital detox. B. To urge readers to take a digital detox.
C. To bring digital detox up for discussion. D. To recommend a French Polynesian resort.
33 Why is a digital detox impossible for most people nowadays
A. They are more stressed and anxious. B. They are deeply influenced by tech.
C. They are unwilling to go phone-free. D. They tend to be more pessimistic.
34. What might be a solution to tech obsession
A. Going on a holiday to Polynesia. B. Avoiding tech altogether.
C. Disconnecting occasionally. D. Using tech purposefully.
35. What does the author think of less screen time in modern society
A. It is achievable. B. It is unreasonable.
C. It is ridiculous. D. It is unrealistic.
【答案】32. C 33. B 34. D 35. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是新闻报道。文章主要介绍“数字脱瘾”这一方式来减少人们的屏幕时间。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“In February, news broke that Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff had taken a “digital detox(脱瘾)”: 10 tech-free days at a French Polynesian resort. For a small group of people, taking a step back from devices is an achievable dream, but for most, it’s an impossibility, especially. (今年2月，有消息称Salesforce首席执行官马克·贝尼奥夫（Marc Benioff）进行了一次“数字脱瘾”：在法属波利尼西亚的一个度假胜地度过了10天的无技术日。对于一小群人来说，从设备上退一步是一个可以实现的梦想，但对大多数人来说，这尤其是不可能的。)”可知，第一段提到马克·贝尼奥夫（Marc Benioff）是为了提出“数字排毒”这一话题。故选C。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段““Technology is very much a part of us now. We bank with an app, read restaurant menus on phones and even sweat with exercise instructors through a screen,” says Seattle-based consultant Emily Cherkin, who specialises in screen-time management. “It’s so embedded(嵌入式的) in our lives, we’re setting ourselves up for failure if we’re going to go phone-free for a week.”(西雅图的顾问艾米丽·切尔金专门研究屏幕时间管理，她说：“技术现在在很大程度上是我们的一部分。我们用应用程序存钱，用手机阅读餐厅菜单，甚至通过屏幕与运动教练一起流汗。它深深植根于我们的生活中，如果我们要在一周内不打电话，我们就注定要失败。”)”可知，现在我们大部分人几乎无法做到“数字脱瘾”是因为我们受数字化影响太大了。故选B。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“Rather than cutting out technology altogether, practice digital mindfulness. Make sure the use of technology is purposeful. Instead of a full detox, digital mindfulness may be more practical for some people: less worry about cutting tech out entirely, and more focus on being intentional with its use. (与其完全放弃技术，不如练习数字正念。确保技术的使用是有目的的。对一些人来说，数字正念可能更实用，而不是完全脱瘾：更少担心完全淘汰技术，更多地关注有意使用技术。)”可知，要想解决科技瘾可以通过有目的的使用来实现。故选D。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“This approach is called “grey detoxing”—you’re not totally immersed(沉浸的) or totally cut off from technology. Instead of causing ourselves more anxiety by attempting to live without our phones for a week, we can approach unavoidable screen time in a way that feels right for our individual lives. (这种方法被称为“灰色脱瘾”——你不会完全沉浸在技术中，也不会完全脱离技术。我们可以以一种适合我们个人生活的方式来处理不可避免的屏幕时间，而不是试图在没有手机的情况下生活一周，从而给自己带来更多的焦虑。)”可知，减少屏幕时间是可以实现的。故选A。

It involves not just hearing words but understanding the differences, emotions and underlying messages.
Use technology
____39____. Whether it’s data analysis, artificial intelligence or project management software, putting technology into your problem-solving toolbox can simplify processes and offer innovative solutions. By embracing technology as an enabler rather than a replacement for human decision-making, individuals can use the power of innovation to address complex challenges effectively.

【40题详解】
根据本段内容“Mistakes are not failures but help you become better. Each misstep provides an opportunity for reflection, learning and refining one’s approach to challenges. Analyse what went wrong, identify areas for improvement and use this knowledge to inform your future problem-solving efforts. Creating a culture that removes mistakes within a team or organization trains an environment where individuals feel comfortable admitting errors.(错误不是失败，而是帮助你变得更好。每一次失误都提供了一个反思、学习和改进自己应对挑战的机会。分析出了什么问题，找出需要改进的地方，并利用这些知识为你未来解决问题的努力提供信息。在团队或组织中创造一种消除错误的文化，培养一种让个人愿意承认错误的环境)”可知，后文提到了“每一次失误都提供了一个反思、学习和改进自己应对挑战的机会”，即从错误中学习，B选项中mistakes对应后文Mistakes。故B选项“从错误中学习”符合语境，故选B。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了中国消费者在即将到来的龙年购买带有龙元素的产品热潮，展示了对中国传统文化的自豪感和信心。这种热潮不仅满足了消费者对具有个性化和独特文化象征的产品的需求，也对促进消费市场的复苏起到了重要作用。
【56题详解】
考查名词。句意：随着龙年临近，在各大电商平台上，龙元素产品的销量呈现爆发式增长。分析句子，此处需要用名词来作宾语，growth“增长”不可数。故填growth。
【57题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：龙被认为是中国传统文化的重要象征，被认为能带来好运和财富。分析句子，句中谓语动词为 is believed，因此空格处应考虑填非谓语动词，其逻辑主语为Dragon与consider之间是被动关系，故使用过去分词。故填considered。
【58题详解】
考查动词的时态。句意：自1月以来，服装、日用品和黄金珠宝等以龙为主题的产品受到了欢迎。空格处作谓语，根据时间状语Since可知，应用现在完成时，主语products为名词的复数形式，助动词用have。故填have gained。
【59题详解】
考查代词。句意：为中国龙年设计的红包、手机壳等物品也受到了消费者的青睐，去年的销量超过了兔年。分析句子，此处名词sales前用形容词性物主代词修饰。故填their。
60题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：购买龙主题商品的中国消费者希望在新的一年里过上更好的生活，并表现出强烈的民族自豪感和对中国文化的信心。hope to do“希望做某事”固定搭配，不定式作宾语。故填to live。
【61题详解】
考查介词。句意同上。a sense of为固定短语，意为“……感”。故填of。
【62题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：龙所承载的丰富的文化内涵和美好的祝愿，不仅激发了人们的购买热情，也满足了人们对具有独特文化符号的个性化和创意产品日益增长的需求。分析句子，设空处引导的是定语从句，修饰指物的先行词The rich cultural meanings and the good wishes，引导词在从句中作carries的宾语，应用关系代词which/that。故用that/which。
【63题详解】
考查形容词。句意同上。分析句子，设空处使用create的形容词creative作定语，与前文的personalized构成并列关系。故填creative。
【64题详解】
考查冠词。句意：春节是中国人最重视的传统节日，也是一个消费旺季。句中的peak season为可数名词，此处表示泛指，故使用不定冠词，同时修饰词peak首字母为辅音音素。故填a。
【65题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：春节前对与龙相关的产品的购买热潮对促进消费市场的复苏至关重要。因为在介词for后，故要用动名词作宾语。故填promoting。

67. 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。约150词。
It was a bright and sunny day. Daniel woke up and jumped out of bed, ready for a full day outside. He ran down the stairs and sat down at the kitchen table. His mom was making pancakes: Daniel’s favorite. She made pancakes every Saturday morning.
“What do you want to do today ” she asked Daniel.
“I think I’m going to go exploring in our backyard,” he told her. “It’s so nice outside!” Daniel quickly ate up his pancakes and rushed upstairs to get dressed. He put on a red T-shirt and jeans.
“Alright, Mom, I’ll be back later!”
“Don’t go too far!” she told him.
When he opened the door, Daniel felt a rush of warm air. He smiled at the sun. Perfect hiking weather, he thought. Daniel loved his backyard. There were plenty of tall trees. If he walked far enough, he would reach a lake. When it was really warm outside, he could walk in the water to cool off. The water was always cold.
The leaves were just beginning to grow on the trees after the cold winter. Daniel wandered for a bit. He picked up a long stick and used it to clear a way through the forest.
Suddenly, Daniel saw something in the distance that wasn’t a rock or a leaf. When he got closer, he knelt down to investigate. He found a small injured bird between the fallen leaves. He looked around and saw a bird’s nest sitting on a branch. He carefully climbed up the trunk of the tree with the nest to get a closer look. The nest was empty, and he didn’t see any birds around. Then, he ran back to his house.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
“Mom, I found a bird that’s hurt!” He told her as he ran through the door.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
They took the bird to the animal hospital.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 “Mom, I found a bird that’s hurt!” He told her as he ran through the door. His mom was about to do some housework when she heard Daniel yelling. Seeing his nervous look, she rushed out of the house. She was in shock when she saw the injured bird. “Oh, this poor thing! It looks like it might have a broken wing.” she said, carefully picking up the bird. “We should send it to the animal hospital at once.” Daniel and his mom carefully placed the bird into a box and got into their car.
They took the bird to the animal hospital. The doctor examined the bird and said it had a broken wing. “We’ll need to set the wing and keep it here for a few weeks until it’s fully recovered,” he said. Daniel and his mom were relieved to know that the bird would be taken care of. On their way home, Daniel’s mom turned to him and said, “Daniel, I’m so proud of you for rescuing that bird today. You have a big heart.” Daniel smiled and felt a sense of accomplishment wash over him. He knew that even though he had planned to explore that day, helping the bird had been even more important.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。讲述Daniel本来打算在外面待一天，不料他碰到了一只受伤的小鸟，于是和妈妈一起把小鸟送到了医院进行救治。妈妈对Daniel的行为感到骄傲，Daniel也觉得虽然自己那天的计划被打乱了，但他做了一件更有意义的事情。
【详解】1. 续写线索：
由续写第一段首句“‘妈妈，我发现一只鸟受伤了！’他一边跑进门一边告诉她。”和第二段首句“他们把这只鸟送到动物医院。”可知，第一段可以描写妈妈出去后看到小鸟的翅膀受伤了，于是他们把小鸟送去动物医院。
由续写第二段首句“他们把这只鸟送到动物医院。”可知，第二段可以描写动物医院的医生给小鸟做了检查，并把它留下来照顾，Daniel妈妈表扬了他的行为，Daniel自己也觉得自己做了一件更重要的事情。
2. 段落续写：Daniel跑进屋告诉妈妈——妈妈出来后检查了小鸟的伤势——二人把小鸟送到动物医院——医生检查并提出治疗方案——妈妈为Daniel感到骄傲——Daniel为自己做了一件重要的事情而有了成就感

Adding to the achievements of a remarkable year, Taylor Swift has been named Time magazine’s Person of the Year for 2023.
Already a superstar before 2023, Swift’s career has reached new heights thanks to the beginning of her Eras Tour that brought her 3.5-hour performance to 66 shows in 23 cities across North America, Argentina and Brazil. Promoted by her tour, Swift has been named the most-streamed female artist in the history of Spotify and Apple Music. According to Billboard, the tour made about $900 million (about 6.4 billion yuan) in 2023. In addition, the tour’s movie Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour became the biggest concert movie of all time, taking more than $250 million globally.
As she was declared (宣布) a billionaire by Bloomberg in November, a hidden “Taylor Swift economy” also promoted sales for business owners across the US. From soaps to a cruise inspired by her different “eras”, interest in Swift-related products went way up.
Apart from her financial contributions, Swift made a significant cultural impact by taking back control of her music. In 2019, her old record label, Big Machine, sold the master tapes of her first six albums (专辑) to Scooter Braun. The sale meant that she didn’t have the rights to the albums. In response to this, Swift began re-recording her first six albums, tagging (加标签于) them “Taylor’s Version”. This move stressed her belief that artists deserve to own their work. “It’s all in how you deal with loss,” she told Time. “I respond to extreme pain by resisting.”
Heading into 2024, Swift will start the Eras Tour again in Japan and Australia. As USA Today noted, “Her current top has been a long time coming, but it may also be just beginning.”
24. What do we know about Taylor Swift

D. Her performance began with the Apple Music.
25. How did Taylor Swift benefit from her Eras Tour

Art museums are full of centuries-old paintings with details of plants that today give us clues about evolution and breeding.
Exhibited at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, The Harvesters created in 1565 shows farmers cutting wheat nearly as tall as they are. “Nowadays, if you walk through a wheat field, you basically see that w heat is about knee height. The short wheat is essentially a consequence of breeding from the second half of the 20th century,” said biologist Ive De Smet.
According to De Smet, wheat is just one example of how historical artworks can allow us to track the transformation of crops over time. He has teamed up with art historian David Vergau wen to seek similar kinds of artworks around the world.
As friends since childhood, their interest in plants in artworks began with a visit to a museum in Russia, where they noticed an old-looking watermelon in an early-7th-century painting. A watermelon is usually believed to be red on the inside. However, that one appeared to be pale and white. De Smet assured the painter had done a poor job. But Verguawen had a different idea. “This is one of the best painters ever in that era. So, if he painted it like that, that’s the way it must have looked like.”
Other paintings revealed that there were both red and white watermelons grown in the 17th century. The chemical compound that makes watermelons red is lycopene (番茄红素). “There must have been some sort of mutation (突变) preventing the accumulation of that color. Now, with all the genetic knowledge that we have of various plant species, we can look in more de tail at how something comes about.”
De Smet and Verguawen hope to create an online research database of historical plant artworks. They call for contributions of art enthusiasts around the world via the social media. But they caution, the source paintings need to be realistic. “If you’re going to use, for example, Picasso’s paintings to try and understand what a pear looked like in the early 20th century, you might be misled.” Instead, such an attempt could be fruitless.
28. What can we infer about wheat from Paragraph 2
A. It became shorter and shorter as it evolved.
B. It was about knee height in the 16th century.
C. It might have had no short varieties before the 1950s.
D. It showed different heights as farmers’ heights changed.
29. What aroused De Smet and Verguswen’s interest in historical plant artworks
A. Their lifelong friendship. B. A white watermelon in a painting.
C. Their professional background. D. An argument over the best painters.
30. Why is Picasso mentioned in the last paragraph
A. To give an example of historical plant artwork.
B. To showcase the contributions of art enthusiasts.
C. To describe the appearance of a pear in the early 20th century.
D To emphasize the significance of using realistic source paintings.
31. What is the main idea of the text
A. Plant evolution progresses throughout history.
B. Old art provides fascinating insights into agriculture.
C. Ancient art demonstrates the presence of white watermelons.
D. Plants serve as a popular subject in numerous historical artworks.

In February, news broke that Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff had taken a “digital detox(脱瘾)”: 10 tech-free days at a French Polynesian resort. For a small group of people, taking a step back from devices is an achievable dream, but for most, it’s an impossibility, especially.
A digital detox requires dismissing technology almost entirely: taking a break from screens, social media and video conferences for multiple days. The goals—reducing stress or anxiety, and reconnecting with the physical world—are well-intentioned. However, experts say a digital detox isn’t practical anymore for most people.
“Technology is very much a part of us now. We bank with an app, read restaurant menus on phones and even sweat with exercise instructors through a screen,” says Seattle-based consultant Emily Cherkin, who specialises in screen-time management. “It’s so embedded(嵌入式的) in our lives, we’re setting ourselves up for failure if we’re going to go phone-free for a week.”
As people become increasingly interdependent on technology, doing a digital detox no longer seems like a reasonable goal. But there may be a more realistic solution that will lessen our tech obsession(着迷), without forcing us to totally disconnect.
Rather than cutting out technology altogether, practice digital mindfulness. Make sure the use of technology is purposeful. Instead of a full detox, digital mindfulness may be more practical for some people: less worry about cutting tech out entirely, and more focus on being intentional with its use.
The goal shouldn’t be to cut off technology or to put a full stop. People still need to send an email, but can do so without getting distracted by the various online contents.
This approach is called “grey detoxing”—you’re not totally immersed(沉浸的) or totally cut off from technology. Instead of causing ourselves more anxiety by attempting to live without our phones for a week, we can approach unavoidable screen time in a way that feels right for our individual lives.
32. Why does the author mention Marc Benioff in paragraph 1
A. To criticize the idea of digital detox. B. To urge readers to take a digital detox.
C. To bring digital detox up for discussion. D. To recommend a French Polynesian resort.
33. Why is a digital detox impossible for most people nowadays
A. They are more stressed and anxious. B. They are deeply influenced by tech.
C. They are unwilling to go phone-free. D. They tend to be more pessimistic.
34. What might be a solution to tech obsession
A. Going on a holiday to Polynesia. B. Avoiding tech altogether.
C. Disconnecting occasionally. D. Using tech purposefully.
35. What does the author think of less screen time in modern society
A. It is achievable. B. It is unreasonable.
C. It is ridiculous. D. It is unrealistic.

It was a bright and sunny day. Daniel woke up and jumped out of bed, ready for a full day outside. He ran down the stairs and sat down at the kitchen table. His mom was making pancakes: Daniel’s favorite. She made pancakes every Saturday morning.
“What do you want to do today ” she asked Daniel.
“I think I’m going to go exploring in our backyard,” he told her. “It’s so nice outside!” Daniel quickly ate up his pancakes and rushed upstairs to get dressed. He put on a red T-shirt and jeans.
“Alright, Mom, I’ll be back later!”
“Don’t go too far!” she told him.
When he opened the door, Daniel felt a rush of warm air. He smiled at the sun. Perfect hiking weather, he thought. Daniel loved his backyard. There were plenty of tall trees. If he walked far enough, he would reach a lake. When it was really warm outside, he could walk in the water to cool off. The water was always cold.
The leaves were just beginning to grow on the trees after the cold winter. Daniel wandered for a bit. He picked up a long stick and used it to clear a way through the forest.
Suddenly, Daniel saw something in the distance that wasn’t a rock or a leaf. When he got closer, he knelt down to investigate. He found a small injured bird between the fallen leaves. He looked around and saw a bird’s nest sitting on a branch. He carefully climbed up the trunk of the tree with the nest to get a closer look. The nest was empty, and he didn’t see any birds around. Then, he ran back to his house.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
