Bianca Mavrick’s first attempt in the jewellery world was as an enterprising (有创业精神的) 10-year-old, selling seashell earrings at the Cleveland markets.
Now the 28-year-old has her own studio in Moorooka, in Brisbane’s south, and her handmade designs enjoy worldwide popularity among fans. “ It’s amazing to be selling internationally. When you do a creative business, you’re going to have to work hard and it will take a few years to get off the ground, but it’s really growing fast now,” she says.
Bianca opened her online store in 2014. Production happens in her studio, with help from one staff member and sometimes her grandma. “My grandma enjoys sitting with the girls. She acts as a kind of quality controller and helps with packing and putting bar codes (条形码) on things,” Bianca says, Bianca laughs as she recalls looking through her grandmother’s pile of costume jewellery as a child. “She had an amazing collection and 1 was allowed to have some of the broken pieces and fix them up to sell alongside the shell earrings on my stand,” she says. Murn and Dad opened an account for me and put the profits away. Even then I knew I wanted to work with jewellery. All of my hobbies always related back to my jewellery. I’m always looking for inspiration, whether I’m visiting an art gallery or looking at furniture for my apartment.
Next month Bianca will join other talented Queensland artists and designers to show her creations at the MAYO Arts Festival, named after well-known Australian sculptor Daphne Mayo. “It’s really exciting to be a part of it,” she says, “It will enable me to meet my clients, too, which is always great because having an online store I can’t normally get to do that. My clients love the unique nature of my designs, as well as the fact that they are handmade, not mass-produced.”
24. What does Bianca think of her business
A. It had a terrible start. B. It is expanding rapidly.
C. It leaves a lot to be desired. D. It aims at foreign clients.
25. What does Bianca’s grandma do in her studio
A. She designs the bar codes. B. She acts as a spokeswoman.
C. She monitors product quality. D. She helps with sales promotion.
26. What made Bianca devoted to jewellery
A. The childhood hobbies and talent. B. The family’s influence and support.
C. The handsome profits in the industry. D. The inspiration from her surroundings.
27. Why is Bianca excited to attend the festival
A. Her unique designs are likely to become a hit.

C. The festival is to be held by a famous sculptor.
D. She can communicate with her clients in person.

In today’s digital age, children are exposed to a number of datafication (数据化) risks, including harmful profiling, micro-targeting and behavioural control.
Digital monitoring-based technologies enable parents to restrict, monitor or track children’s online activities. Popular apps such as Life 360, Google Family Link and Apple Maps, are widespread. However, such approaches have limited effectiveness in keeping children out of the boundaries of the digital space or reducing screen time usage. Meanwhile, the risks associated with these approaches emerge, such as their potential to affect family trust relationships or prevent the development of children’s self-regulation skills. With modern families increasingly struggling with their children’s relationship with digital technologies and lack of effective and clear guidance lor them, new approaches are urgently needed.
It is for this reason that Computer Science researchers working on the Oxford Marlin Programme on Ethical Web and Data Architectures developed the KOALA Hero Toolkit, It has been co-developed with families and children by Oxford researchers over several years in response to increasing concerns from families about the risks associated with extensive use of the digital technologies.
The toolkit has several key features. By providing families with insights into datafication risks, i. e. how children’s data may collected and processed, and used to affect what they see online, the toolkit enables families to make informed decisions about their online activities. Through both a digital and physical component, and the provision of interactive activities and discussion sheets, the toolkit facilitates meaningful conversations between children and parents, promoting a deeper understanding of digital privacy and ethics (道德). By providing worksheets that guide conversations and interactions with the toolkit among family members, with both children and parents involved in the learning process, the toolkit strengthens the family bonds and promotes collective problem-solving.
By assessing the toolkit with 17 families, involving 23 children aged 10-14, we found positive indications for our approach to encouraging active family engagement, instead of focusing on controls and monitoring. We hope to work with a larger sample to make it more adaptable before sharing the toolkit on popular app stores.
28. What do we know about digital monitoring-based technologies
A. They are unfriendly to parents. B. They need necessary improvement.
C. They strengthen family relationship. D. They offer parents a clear guidance.
29. What is special about the toolkit
A. It safeguards children’s online privacy. B. It promotes parent-child communication.
C. it places strict control on children’s data. D. It enables children to think independently.
30. What may the researchers do next
A. To Better the toolkit. B. To contact app stores.
C. To target the market. D. To seek professional advice.
31. What may be the best title
A. A Popular Digital Monitoring-based App
B. Children’s Exposure Io Datafication Risks
C. Families’ Change in Attitude to Datafication
D. An Innovative Approach to Digital Parenting

As China’s cities grow, they are also sinking. An estimated 16 percent of the country’s major cities are losing more than 10 millimeters of height per year and nearly half are losing more than 3 millimeters per year, according to a new study published in the journal Science.
“Land subsidence (下沉) is a problem that almost exists everywhere,” said Robert Nicholls, a climate scientist and civil engineer at the University of East Anglia who reviewed the paper, “To my knowledge, this study is the first to measure land subsidence across many urban areas using state-of-the-art radar (雷达) data from satellites. I believe the majority of the adaptation strategies that we have, and the plans to fight climate change, are inaccurate, just because they did not include land subsidence. Land subsidence is an unheeded problem. It hasn’t been studied the way, for example, sea level rise has been studied.”
The new study was based on satellite radar measurements of how much the ground surface in 82 major cities, accounting for three-quarters of the urban population, moved up or down between 2015 and 2022. The researchers compared these measurements to data on potential contributing factors. Subsidence in these cities is caused in part by the pure weight of buildings, the study found. Groundwater extraction (开采) underneath the cities also plays a role, as do oil drilling and coal mining. These activities leave empty space underground where soil and rocks can press together or collapse.
Being below sea level doesn’t mean a city is automatically destroyed. Much of the Netherlands is below sea level and sinking, but the country has been extensively engineered to prevent flooding in places and to accommodate it in others. Shanghai is already limiting ground water extraction and is sinking more slowly than other cities. In Japan, groundwater management over the years has proved successful. “It’s difficult to slop subsidence entirely,” Dr. Nicholls said, “You’ve got to live with what’s left.”
32. What do the figures in paragraph 1 imply
A. Cities grow at an alarming speed. B. Cities face fierce climate change.
C. Land subsidence is under control. D. Land subsidence is an urgent issue.
33. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “unheeded’’ in paragraph 2
A. Ignored. B. Identified. C. Undefined. D. Overestimated.
34. Whal may contribute to land subsidence in cities according to the passage
A. Energy extraction. B. Overuse of farmland.
C. Population expansion. D. Uneven distribution of water.
35. What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A. City planning calls for joint efforts. B. Groundwater is to blame for land sinking,
C. Measures can be taken to ease subsidence. D. Flooding prevention deserves further research.

Our friends Nick and Carol moved Io Australia in 2017. My husband and I finally saved up enough money to visit them in Sydney.
From the very first day, I had this feeling that here was a place where I could imagine fitting in. We had left England in the cold and rain, and arrived to find Sydney warm and sunny. We spent our days relaxing on the beach, or going into the city to explore. 36
Going back home to England after our trip was really hard. That winter fell very long and cold, and all I could think of was the warm sunshine and big open spaces of Australia. In England we both worked long hours to afford to live in our little house. 37 When I thought of Nick and Carol’s spacious house in Sydney, and how they both walked lo their jobs each morning, I kept thinking to myself, “I want to be there!”
Slowly, we started talking about the idea of moving to Australia. We’d had enough of short, cold, wet days and small houses in England. The crowds and queues of people at home were too much. 38
Immigration (移民) to Australia is a long process and expensive. It was very exciting when our applications were finally accepted. When we arrived, and flew over the city of Perth, I saw the bright sunshine and the spacious houses and swimming pools below. 39 The ocean was shining blue. It fell right. It felt like home.
There are things I miss about England of course, but I do enjoy all the space in Australia, and the relaxed outdoors lifestyle. 40 To visit, definitely — but not to live, Australia feels like home now.
A. It was time for a change.
B. I saw forests and countryside, too.
C. Will we be going back to England
D. We had hour-long journeys by car to get to work.
E. We would just step outside into the garden and swim in the pool.
F. In the evening, we’d have a barbecue in Nick and Carol’s garden.
G. The only thing I was concerned about was missing English culture.

Emma’s love for knitting was deeply influenced by her mother, who possessed a skilled and creative touch with needles. Her mother’s passion for knitting and generous spirit of helping others always inspired Emma to follow in her footsteps and take up knitting as a meaningful hobby.
Emma was really good at knitting. She liked to make scarves, gloves, hats and mini bags for her friends as well as her relatives. Her hats were created in a variety of styles and colors, each one unique and full of personality. Whether it was a mini bag or a classic scarf, each knitting work was a carefully crafted masterpiece and a unique gift full of love and warmth. With beauty and practicality, Emma’s creations never failed to impress.
One freezing morning in the peak of winter, the city had just been blanketed by a snowstorm that had left many, particularly the homeless, in desperate situation. As Emma made her way to school, she noticed a shaking figure under the bridge near her school. It was a homeless man she often saw on her route, but today he looked particularly miserable (可怜的). His face was half-hidden under a piece of worn cloth that hardly served as protection against the cold. Touched by the sight, Emma decided to present her scarf to the homeless man. She approached, handing the scarf to him.
“For me ” the man asked, his eyes widened with surprise.
“Yes! I thought it might help with the cold,” Emma said, her breath visible in the cold air.
