Four Best Zoos in the US
Saint Louis Zoo
Saint Louis Zoo is devoted to research and conservation. In 2022, it received the Worldwide Conservation Award from the World Association of Zoos and Aquariums for research and work in the Galapagos Islands. The zoo is home to more than 16.000 animals, which are kept in clean and spacious natural habitats （栖息地）. Open year-round and free to visit, Saint Louis Zoo houses Andean bears, polar bears and Sumatran orangutans, to name a few.
Zoo Atlanta
Opened in 1889 and one of the oldest zoos in the US. Zoo Atlanta is one of the top zoos worth visiting in Atlanta. Home to giant pandas.

It’s 4:30 in the morning. Behind a forest, the sun begins to lighten the sky with bright and warm tones. The national bird of Honduras, scarlet macaws （红金刚鹦鹉）, which have colorful feathers, groom （理毛） each other as they wait for Anayda Pantin Lopez who has devoted the last 12 years to protecting them.
Pantin and her husband, Santiago Lacuth Montoya, live in a small village called Mabita, where most of its villagers protect these birds and the rest of the wildlife surrounding them. Twice a day, Pantin prepares food for 40 to 60 scarlet macaws that come to her village for feedings. She also cares for several other birds at a rescue center, or chicks that fall down from their nests, until they can fly freely.
Years ago, Lacuth supported the family by selling macaw eggs and chicks as pets — not realizing it would have a detrimental impact on the bird population. At that time, the hunting and sale of wild species was legal and thousands of sc arlet macaws disappeared.
However, when Lacuth learned the number of scarlet macaws was sharply decreasing, he decided to become a guardian of them. He tried to convince other hunters to follow in his footsteps. Eventually, other Mabita residents joined Lacuth and Pantin’s efforts. “For many years the scarlet macaws helped me provide for my family. Now it was my turn to help them,” Lacuth said.
“The Mabita project is very impressive because of the commitment of Pantin and Lacuth and the entire community,” says LoraKim Joyner. founder of One Earth Conservation. In 2014, additional funds came from the United States Fish and Wildlife Service, and England’s Darwin Foundation stepped in to support the conservation and community engagement efforts.
Since the project began, the scarlet macaw population has grown from 500 to more than 800. “Now we have seen that the number of these birds has increased,” said Pantin. “But that does not change our goal, which is to continue caring for them so that our children and grandchildren can have the opportunity to enjoy everything that nature gives us.”
24．What phenomenon is described in the first paragraph
A．The young birds are waiting for their mother.
B．The trees in the forest grow very well.
C．Scarlet macaws live comfortably and safely.
D．Scarlet macaws are trying to feed themselves.
25．What does the underlined word “detrimental” in paragraph 3 mean
A．Meaningful. B．Harmful. C．Possible. D．Small.
26．Why did Lacuth change his behavior
A．To protect other hunters from harm.
B．To encourage other villagers to live better.
C．To improve the quality of life for his family.
D．To stop the number of scarlet macaws decreasing.
27．What can be inferred about the Mabita project from the last paragraph
A．Its efforts have paid off. B．Its goal has changed.
C．It will attract more volunteers. D．It will continue to build schools for children.
C
People who routinely eat a lot of red meat may be increasing their risk of developing Type 2 diabetes （糖尿病）, according to a new study. Processed red meats, like bacon and hot dogs, are linked to an even higher risk.
Researchers tracked the eating habits of more than 200,000 people engaged in long-term health studies for up to 36 years and found that those who regularly consumed a lot of red meat — more than a serving per day — had a significantly higher risk of developing Type 2 diabetes.
“When we looked at the women and men who consumed the most red meat compared to the least, we found about a 50% increase in risk,” says study author Dr. Walter Willett of the Harvard T. H. Chan School of Public Health. The results were published in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.
It turned out that the participants in the study who consumed high amounts of red meat also had higher body weight. They consumed more calories （热量） and were less physically active compared with those who consumed the least red meat.
Given that, in the US, only about 4% of people are identified as vegetarians and only 1%vegans, it’s not realistic to think that people will give up red meat altogether. So how much red meat is OK to consume US dietary guidelines don't clearly state an amount, but a recent review of observational studies suggests it’s reasonable to limit daily consumption of unprocessed red meat to 50 to 100 grams to prevent high blood pressure and heart diseases. Willett’s recommendation goes even further. “A limit of one serving per week of red meat would be reasonable for people wishing to improve health and well-being,” Willett says.
Given the large body of evidence that links too much red meat consumption to increased risks of heart disease and cancer, Christopher Gardner, a food scientist at Stanford University, points out that recommendations to limit the consumption of red meat, particularly processed red meat, have been made by many national and global health organizations.
28．How did the researchers draw their conclusion
A．By asking questions. B．By referring to former studies.
C．By making comparisons. D．By carrying out experiments.
29．Which word may best describe someone who eats lots of red meat according to the study
A．Healthy. B．Active. C．Crazy. D．Fat.
30．Which of the following is Willett’s advice
A．Eating red meat only once a week.
B．Replacing red meat with vegetables.
C．Consuming much unprocessed red meat.
D．Eating a small amount of red meat every day.
31．What is the best title for the text
A．Healthy Diets Are a Must B．Too Much Red Meat May Cause Illness
C．A Good Habit Is the Key to Living Well D．Red Meat Is Beneficial to Our Health
D
Smart and highly sensitive （灵敏的）, a new soft sensor developed by UBC (University of British Columbia) and Honda researchers opens the door to a wide range of applications in robotics and prosthetics （假肢）.
When applied to the surface of prosthetic or robotic arms, the sensor skin provides touch sensitivity and flexibility, making it possible for difficult tasks to be completed by machines, such as picking up a piece of soft fruit. The sensor is also soft to the touch, like human skin. which helps make human interactions safer and more lifelike.
“Our sensor uses weak electric fields to sense objects, even at a distance, much as touchscreens do. But unlike touchscreens, this sensor is soft and can detect forces into and along its surface,” explained Dr. John Madden, senior study author and a professor of electrical and computer engineering who leads the Advanced Materials and Process Engineering Laboratory at UBC.
The UBC team developed the technology in cooperation with Frontier Robotics, Honda’s research institute. Honda has been innovating in humanoid robotics since the 1980s, and developed the well-known ASIMO (Advanced Step in Innovative Mobility) robot. It has also developed devices to assist walking and the emerging Honda Avatar Robot.
“Dr. Madden’s lab has significant expertise in flexible sensors and we’re happy to cooperate with this team in developing touch sensors that can be applied to robots,” said Mr. Ishizaki Ryusuke, one of the study’s lead authors and chief engineer at Frontier Robotics.
Dr. Madden said, “Human skin has a hundred times more sensing points on a fingertip than our technology does, making it easier to light a match or sew. As sensors continue to develop to be more skin-like, and can also detect temperature and even damage, there is a need for robots to be smarter about which sensors to pay attention to and how to respond. Developments in sensors and artificial intelligence will need to go hand in hand.”
32．What do we know about the new sensor
A．Its surface feels soft. B．It is far from sensitive.
C．Its interaction with humans seems unsafe. D．It is unable to pick up a piece of fruit.
33．What does paragraph 3 mainly tell us about the new sensor
A．Its types. B．Its structures.
C．Its advantages. D．Its directions for use.
34．What is Mr. Ishizaki Ryusuke’s attitude toward the UBC team
A．Doubtful. B．Positive. C．Unconcerned. D．Unclear.
35．What can be learned from the last paragraph
A．Human skin is easily hurt. B．A fingertip has few sensing points.
C．Sensors can light matches easily. D．Robots need further improvement.

Body language can reflect our confidence level. 36 and another way when we’re nervous. At a glance （看一眼）, most people can tell if we’re confident or not. So we should learn some tips to show confidence through body language so that we always appear confident and ready.
37
The first tip to show confidence with body language is to keep your hands out of your pockets. We often put our hands in our pockets when we’re unsure of ourselves. And that’s how other people will view us.
Keep your eyes forward
38 , it often feels natural to lower your head slightly and watch your step. However, this gesture communicates to others that you don’t want to interact. And if you're not careful. you might get into the habit of doing it all the time. So keep your head up and your eyes forward. even when you’re walking down the street by yourself.
Smile
Try this as an experiment: Smile at someone as you pass by them on the street or walk around the office. 39 . Now wouldn’t you like to have that effect on people all the time
Firm handshakes
There are few things worse than reaching out your hand during an introduction and getting a handshake which is not firm enough. Don’t be that guy. Instead, hold the other person’s hand firmly and confidently. Of course, a handshake is not a contest. 40 .
A．Take wide steps
B．Avoid your pockets
C．It’s very likely that they’ll smile back
D．When you’re walking anywhere by yourself
E．Don’t try to hold the other person’s hand too long
F．If you want to show confidence with body language
G．We stand and walk a certain way when we’re confident

Emoji s are widely used in our daily lives and have become 56 important way of communication. The first emojis were created in 1999 by Japanese designer Shigetaka Kurita, 57 worked on a mobile Internet platform 58 (call) i-mode. Kurita attempted todevelop a simple way for people 59 (express) emotions in short text messages.
As emoji s gained 60 (popular), they faced a significant technical hurdle （障碍）: early emoji s could not 61 (send) across different mobile platforms, since there was no standardized encoding （编码）. This issue was resolved in 2010 by the Unicode Consortium, an organization responsible 62 maintaining a standardized encoding of text and symbols across platforms. This allowed for cross-platform communication and continued expansion in emoji usage worldwide.
Given 63 (they) origins in Japan, many early emoji characters were reflective of Japanese culture. As they've spread 64 (global), new characters have been added to account for cultural differences and provide a more universal means of communication. Users must also consider cultural sensitivities when 65 (communicate) via emojis, as certain symbols can have hugely different meanings across different cultures.

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。
It was a beautiful May morning. As usual, I started my day by sitting outside breathing the fresh air as I read my book and drank my coffee. Afterwards, there were two things I was determined to do. First, make sure my husband got our small Christmas trees down from the attic （阁楼） and, second, take several bags of clothes, blankets and comforters to the donation center. I had been faithful in doing that every year, but for whatever reason. I had delayed this year and the bags were now piling up and overflowing.
After reading for a while, I went into the bedroom to ask my husband to bring the trees down. He was asleep so I figured I’d surprise him and get them down by myself.
I went to the garage to access the attic storage and moved our tall metal ladder into place. I had to move the bags of clothing and blankets out of the way, determined once again to get those to the donation center.
I climbed the ladder, and two steps from the top I was able to reach up and push open the attic door. Then, with my feet on the very last step and part of my upper body in the attic. I saw my trees. I awkwardly raised my leg to climb onto the attic floor. Looking down. and then looking up again. I decided that this was actually too much for me. I should wait for my husband to get them.
As I stepped down, my foot missed the shaky ladder’s step. With one foot swinging and the other on the top step, I grabbed （抓住） the attic floorboard and called my husband. Unfortunately, he couldn't hear me. As I went to take another step down, the ladder suddenly came out from under me, loudly crashing onto the concrete garage floor, leaving me hanging from the at tic with sweaty hands. In that second, which seemed like a century, I prayed and then called my husband.
注意：1．续写词数应为150个左右；

With my body swinging in midair and my hands slowly sliding closer to the edge, I fell.

第一节
One possible version:
Dear Bob,
Nothing makes me happier than welcoming you to my hometown to celebrate the harvest. I’d like to recommend to you Yangqu Modern Agriculture Demonstration Zone in Shanxi Province.
For one thing, with the development of science and technology, you can see more advanced equipment being used here, which promotes crop growth and makes agriculture more efficient. For another, the standardized operation of equipment by workers in uniform will leave a deep impression on you.
I sincerely hope my recommendation can be of help to you. Wish you a good trip here!
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节
One possible version:
With my body swinging in midair and my hands slowly sliding closer to the edge, I fell. My entire body except my left foot landed on the bags of clothes and comforters that I had just moved! As my foot slammed into the concrete floor, I heard it crack as pain shot through my leg. Lying on the bags, I weakly yelled, “Help me!” My husband rushed in, picking me up and taking me to the hospital. As he drove, he said with tears in his eyes, “Thank God you fell on those bags. It’s a blessing that they were even out there!”
Arriving at the emergency center, I anxiously waited to see the doctor. The doctor was surprised about what had happened to me and called me his miracle patient. Having carefully examined me, the doctor told me that I just broke my foot and it would take me several weeks to recover. He said it was lucky that I wasn't injured more than I was. It was those bags that saved me from severe disaster or even death. Hearing the doctor's words, my husband hugged me with gratitude. What a coincidence it was!
