“Look where others aren't focusing.” says Vimeo CEO Anjali Sud. Aiming to make Vimeo a leader like Netflix, she's worked tirelessly to transform the company. Vimeo shifted from a media platform investing in content to a tech company empowering creators, fueling rapid growth. Today, over 80 million members share remarkable stories from around the world every millisecond.
How did Anjali Sud change the entire business of Vimeo Let's look at the marketing strategies she adopted for this transition.
Vimeo, a viewing platform purely based on content, found itself entering into various content wars where the market price of original content increased from millions to billions overnight. Anjali decided to bring back Vimeo to its basics. Instead of charging the audience, Vimeo offered paid subscription plans for creators to access advanced tools on the platform. By processing the changes, Anjali Sud redefined Vimeo's vision and values for long-term success.
Anjali Sud believes that businesses can better address their shortcomings through self-awareness. Vimeo demonstrated this when it recognized its lack of knowledge in live streaming, a demanding feature among the creator community. Accepting this shortcoming and looking at an alternative solution helped Vimeo purchase a Livestream company that launched the live video product. This combination of Vimeo and Livestream proved to be a powerful solution in the market for professional live streaming.
Vimeo's mission is to empower creators to tell exceptional stories, focusing on individuals and small to medium-sized businesses for video creation and distribution. In the dynamic environment, what kept Vimeo sustaining and winning were some harsh decisions taken by Anjali Sud, for instance, non-display of advertisements even after 14 years of its existence. This commitment helps simplify the user experience, enabling businesses and professionals to create and distribute video content while keeping costs low.
With all of these marketing tactics, Vimeo is committed to putting creators first in the era of content wars and overload advertisements on different platforms. It is really exciting that technology platforms like Vimeo are enabling everyone to join the creator community and build their own video business.
24. What does the underlined sentence reveal about Vimeo’ s path to success
A. Thinking out of the box. B. Leading with focus.
C. Sticking to safe choices. D. Imitating successful models.
25. How did Anjali Sud redefine Vimeo's vision for long-term success
A. By increasing viewer subscriptions.
B. By focusing on advertising income.
C. By expanding live streaming options.
D. By offering creators subscription plans.
26. What strategy did Vimeo use to address its live streaming limitation
A. Building from scratch. B. Recognizing the gap.
C. Accepting the demand. D. Acquiring a company.
27. Who are Vimeo's target users
A. Streaming services and broadcasters.
B. Individual creators and small companies.
C. Large corporations and media businesses.
D. Exceptional agencies and nonprofit organizations.

For students chasing lasting wealth, the best choice of a college major is less obvious than you might think. Conventional wisdom says computer science and engineering majors have higher earnings than liberal arts graduates. This is true for the first job, but the long-term story is more complicated.
Computer science and engineering majors aged 23 and 25 earned an average of $61,744, according to a recent survey. This was 37 percent higher than the average starting salary of$45,032 earned by history or the social sciences majors. These engineers roughly doubled their starting salaries by age 40, to an average of $124,458. Yet earnings growth is even faster in other majors, and some catch up completely. By age 40, the average salary of all college graduates was $111,870, and social science and history majors earned $131,154— an average that is lifted, in part, by high-paying jobs in management, business and law.
One reason for the narrowing gap is that STEM jobs change rapidly, and workers must constantly learn new skills to keep up. Job ads for software developers and engineers were more likely to ask for skills that didn't exist a decade earlier. We can also see this by looking at changes in college course catalogs. Machine Learning, one of the largest courses in the Stanford computer science department did not exist until 2003. Today, it enrolls more than a thousand students. In contrast, liberal arts majors maintain a more traditional curriculum with fewer changes.
Why do the earnings of poets catch up It's not because poetry suddenly pays the bills. Midcareer salaries are highest in management and business occupations, fields which liberal arts majors are more likely than STEM graduates to enter. A liberal arts education builds a set of foundational skills, such as written communication, problem-solving, and the ability to work in a team, which serve students well in a rapidly changing job market.
To clarify, I am not suggesting students avoiding STEM majors. But I do think we should be cautious of the impulse to make college curriculums overly technical and career-focused. A four-year degree should prepare students for the next 40 years of working life, and for a future that none of us can imagine.
28. What do the figures in Paragraph 2 reveal
A. Engineers earn less than social scientists.
B. STEM careers guarantee the highest pay.
C. Liberal arts earnings grow to match STEM.
D. Social science majors excel in high-paying fields.
29. What is the reason for the narrowing earnings gap
A. Liberal arts majors' salaries start higher.
B. STEM workers experience skill updates.
C. Liberal arts majors avoid traditional careers.
D. STEM majors maintain a traditional curriculum.
30. What is the author's view on college curriculums
A. Students should avoid STEM majors.
B. Art degrees should be career-oriented.
C. STEM majors must focus on the future.
D. Balance is preferred over technical focus.
31. What is the best title for the passage
A. Engineers Start Faster, but Poets Catch up
B. Constant Skill Updating for STEM Careers
C. Management and Business: Paths to Wealth
D. How to Balance Skills With Lifelong Learning
D
Engineers at Tufts University have developed an imaging method that can see details down to 1.6 nanometers(纳米). This new technique, developed by a team led by Professor Igor Sokolov, goes beyond traditional laboratory microscopes and even atomic force microscopy(AFM), which can only produce rough, black-and-white images that show atoms as surface dots without“color” information on the type of atom or material. By combining AFM with physical measurements and machine learning, this new method provides a high-resolution map of the material.
In this method, the atomic force microscope scans the surface of the sample to identify the type of molecule(分子) underneath. For example, if the material is made of different types of plastics, the technique can create a color map showing how the molecules are arranged and the tiny details of the structure. The measurements include the shape of the surface, the energy lost as the scanner pulls away, and how much the material stretches. A total of twelve different physical measurements are recorded using AFM. The data is then processed by a computer program that creates a map for each type of material in the sample.
This imaging technology has significant potential in various fields. For example, it could speed up the development of plastic materials that degrade smoothly, layer by layer, helping to prevent microplastic pollution, which harms the environment and enters the food chain. Additionally, in healthcare, it could allow detailed studies of tooth surfaces, aiding in the development of protective coatings that better resist damage from virus.
“Imaging at the nanoscale can help shift plastic material development toward a more precise approach,” said Sokolov. “You mix materials and then test them under conditions that resemble real use, aging, and environmental exposure, mainly observing large and small changes in the material. By looking at these tiny changes, we can more quickly predict what might happen to these new materials over time.”
32. What is the main advantage of the new imaging method
A. Producing rough, black-and-white images.
B. Offering clear and colored images of materials.
C. Combining AFM with physical measurements.
D. Showing detailed information on the atom surface.
33. What is the main idea of Paragraph 2
A. Working principle of the technology.
B. Generation of color images by AFM.
C. Data processing through machine learning.
D. Application of the technology in material analysis.
34. What does the underlined word“degrade” mean
A. Wear out. B. Break down. C. Hold up. D. Set off.
35. In what way does nanoscale imaging help material development
A. Instant results and conclusions.
B. Testing under extreme conditions.
C. Observing small material changes.
D. Faster and more accurate predictions.

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。
Her parents named her Cinderella(灰姑娘) for a reason. Well, of course there had to be a reason. One doesn't just choose such a name as one might choose Anne or Linda. No, Cinderella implies a host of meanings.
As she grew up, Cinderella Jones began to wonder about her name. “Mom,” she said one day, “why did you name me Cinderella The kids in school make fun of me. They ask me if I' ve cleaned any fireplaces recently and where my glass slippers(水晶鞋) are. They even ask where my Prince Charming is and when I will go to the ball with him.”
“Your father and I thought that if we named you Cinderella, you would have a charmed life.” her mom answered. Cinderella was lost in thought. The original Cinderella didn't exactly have a charmed life. She was cleaning the fireplace and dealt with cinders, so that's how she got her name. And she had two evil stepsisters. So for a long time she was pretty miserable.
“No, I'm only fifteen, I don't want to live a miserable life. I' ll take this silly name and turn it into something productive.” she said to herself. So she created a very small business for herself in the summer: Cinderella’ s Fireplace Cleaning.
Before long, every house on her street had a very clean fireplace. Cinderella knew that by the following summer she would again be called on to clean fireplaces, if the citizens on her street in Ashleyville, Ohio did with their fireplaces what they were supposed to do in wintertime: use them.
However, one can earn only a small amount of money by cleaning neighborhood fireplaces once a year. The constant ridicule(嘲笑) of her classmates remained, “Where are your glass slippers Did they break Are your feet too big for them ” Such annoying classmates, she thought. What to do Then she had another great idea.
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。
Taking out a piece of paper and a pencil, Cinderella started to draw a shoe that was totally clear.
The next week, Cinderella started her small business: Cinderella’ s Glass Slippers online.

37. E 根据后文的“For ticket holders”以及“For event planners”可知,此空应该是该段的主题句, E选项符合题意。
38. D 该段讲述的是如何利用倒计时来激励人们购买早鸟票，D选项“使用我们的倒计时钟为你的活动创造一种紧迫感”符合题意。
39. F 根据后文的“不管奖励是什么，一定要像对待皇室一样对待这些早起的买家”可知，该空应该是说奖励的具体内容是什么，因此选 F。
40. A 后文说“最成功的促销者会在活动前的几个月里多次提供限时销售窗口”，可以得知第三条建议应该是要多次提供购买早鸟票的机会，因此A选项“只有一次机会的早鸟票体验是一个神话”符合题意。
完形填空
41. C 根据上下文，作者哪怕是看到蛇的图像或玩具模型都会感到恐惧，因此这里的“sight”(看到、目睹)符合题意。
42. A 作者提到这种恐惧会让她陷入极度害怕的状态，故“freeze”(僵住)最符合句意。其他选项如“catch”(抓住)“engage”(吸引)和“excite”(激发)与表达恐惧的情绪不符。
43. B “take on the role”是一个固定短语，意为“承担”或“接受”某个角色。在这里，作者描述她成为辅导员，这是一种责任的承担。其他选项“reflect on”(反思)“focus on”(专注于)和“insist on”(坚持)不符合句意。
44. D 后文中提到在动物站“面对一条活蛇”，因此“live”(活的)是正确答案，是原词复现。其他选项如“dangerous”(危险的)“harmless”(无害的)和“wild”(野生的)都不如“live”贴切,因为未强调蛇的危险性或野生属性。
45. C 句意显示工作人员热情地向作者宣告可以接触活蛇，最合适的动词是“declared”(宣称、宣布)。相比之下, “continued”(继续)“mentioned”(提到)和“screamed”(尖叫)均不够准确或不符合语境。
46. A 作者虽然害怕蛇，但不想放弃或抛下孩子们，因此“abandon”(放弃、抛下)最为适合。
47. B 根据后文，工作人员解释这条蛇的特性是遇到威胁时会装死，暗示它其实“无害”。因此，“harmless”(无害的)符合语境。其他选项如“risky”(有风险的)“aggressive”(攻击性的)和“curious”(好奇的)不符合蛇的性格描述。
48. D 蛇遇到威胁时会装死,这是一种“play dead”(装死)的行为。因此“play”最为准确。
49. C 根据上下文，作者即使在害怕的情况下，也在孩子们的鼓励下决定触摸蛇。虽然她鼓起了勇气，但仍然带着勉强的心情。因此，“unwillingly”(不情愿地)更符合作者当时的心理。
50. A 此句描述蛇在作者手臂上的状态，表达的是一种“摆放”或“放置”的感觉。 因此，“positioned”(摆放，安放)最符合蛇在她手臂上的姿态。
51. D 作者逐渐意识到她的“恐惧”源于误解，因此“fear”是最符合的选项。
52. B 这句话的意思是勇敢并非指“没有恐惧”，所以“absence”(缺失、没有)最贴切。
53. A 虽然克服了对蛇的恐惧，但作者仍然对蛇保持“谨慎”态度，因此“cautious”(谨慎的)最合适。
54. C 勇气在于克服恐惧而非“回避”恐惧,因此“avoiding”(回避)最符合文意。其他选项如“suffering”(遭受)“surviving”(存活)和“acknowledging”(承认)不符合题意。
55. D 最后一句引用了名言,即真正的勇敢是“克服”恐惧。因此“conquers”(克服)是最佳选项。“hides”(隐藏)“encounters”(遇到)和“values”(珍视)均不符合题意。
语法填空
56. harmoniously 考查词形转换。
57. attracts 考查主谓一致,主语为“a new copper screen”,现在时强调屏幕的持续吸引力。
58. warmth 考查词形转换。
59. themes 考查名词复数。
60. drawing 考查现在分词作方式状语,与前面的“by broadening the themes…”是并列结构。
61. developed 考查过去分词作后置定语。
62. at 考查介词的固定搭配, “at… temperature”。
63. to advance 考查动词不定式在抽象名词后作后置定语。
64. the 考查冠词的固定搭配。
65. and 考查并列连词，连接两个并列动词。

Dear Mr. Martin,
I hope you are doing well. As our Taiji class comes to an end, I want to take this opportunity to share my feedback about the course.
I would like to express my gratitude for your deep appreciation of Chinese culture. Your insights into Taiji have greatly impressed me and enhanced my understanding of its significance. Physically, I have improved my balance and flexibility, and I feel more relaxed and focused. Culturally, I have gained a richer appreciation for the values of this art form.
For improvement, I suggest incorporating more interactive discussions about the history of Taiji and possibly organizing a small showcase for students to demonstrate what we' ve learned. Thank you for a wonderful semester!
Best regards,
Li Hua

Possible version
Taking out a piece of paper and a pencil, Cinderella started to draw a shoe that was totally clear. Her vision was sharp and her fingers moved with determination as she sketched, adding curves and elegant details to the design. “If my classmates want to see glass slippers, I' ll give them glass slippers.” she muttered. After finishing the sketch, she spent hours researching materials online and decided on a durable, clear plastic that could resemble glass. Confident and inspired, she realized these shoes could be both fashionable and durable,a creation no one had ever seen before. With excitement, Cinderella decided to turn her idea into a real product.
The next week, Cinderella started her small business: Cinderella’ s Glass Slippers online. She created a simple website, posted photos of her first pair, and spread the word among her classmates and their families. Orders quickly poured in from people curious to see if her creations lived up to their name. Her classmates, who once teased her, now admired her work. As each new pair was delivered, Cinderella felt her confidence grow. The once—— painful nickname became a badge of pride. With each sale, she realized she didn't need a fairy godmother to create magic— she was capable of it all on her own.

M: My doctor said my cough is fine and there's nothing to worry about. But I think I need more treatment.(1)
W: Maybe you should have a second opinion. Why don't you make an appointment with my doctor
Text 2
W: Oh, that's sad. The last time I visited this town, there were flowers everywhere. Now there are none.
M: I' ve been here twice before, and both times there were flowers. Maybe this is the wrong time of year.(2)
W: Yes, you could be right.
Text 3
M: Hi. I'm new here. I was wondering if you knew how to turn on the coffee machine in the break room.
W: Normally you just press the power button, but it's not been working for over a week. You can use the one near the manager's office. (3)
Text 4
M: Remember to clean your teeth after you eat that biscuit.
W: I will. To be honest, I shouldn't really be having this biscuit right before bedtime.(4)
M: Exactly. You should have eaten it in the morning, or with your afternoon snack, like I did.
Text 5
M: Look, I just dug up this bowl!
W: Wow! It's beautiful, and that pale green paint makes me wonder if it could be from the Song Dynasty.(5)
M: Maybe. It was found very close to where we discovered that cup of unique shape in Song Dynasty.
Text 6
M: Today, we' ll be talking about the effects of global warming on animals. What do you think, Jane
W: Well, sir, if the Earth keeps getting hotter, I worry about how animals will survive in the future. However, my dad thinks life will always find a way. Although it will be very bad for some animals, others might adapt.
M: In what way
W: They may change their diet or change where they live to get used to the new conditions.
M: I see. What about those animals that cannot adapt
W: Sadly, the future isn't very bright for them. They will be dying out.

W: Okay, remember you don't need to take any cash as it's all paid online. And take the food only after the waiters pack it up and figure out the address on the bags.
M: Okay, that's not a problem. But where shall I put the food on my bike (8)
W: You' ve got a special box that keeps the food warm.
M: What if the food still goes cold
W: That depends on the customers. Some will want it for free. In most cases, you can get to their homes in good time. But you must ride very carefully. Keep that in mind— at any time, put your own safety first.(9)
M: Okay.
W: Here's your first order. It's for a house across town. Good luck, and ride safely!
Text 8
W: This is a really good meal. Now let's pay the bill. My meal cost $18 in total. How much did you spend
M: My food was $12, and my drink was $4.
W: Okay, let me just add that up.(10)
M: On your phone (10) You can't do it in your head
W: I could, but it's quicker this way.(10)
M: I'm sure smartphones are making us stupider! (11)
W: That's not true. Maybe people today aren't as good at mental math as people in the past. But that's because we don't have to be.
M: Perhaps phones just train us to be lazy, then.(11)
W: You' re looking at it pretty negatively. It's true that technology often takes over jobs that humans used to do, which leads to a loss of certain skills. But it frees up space in our minds for other things, to come up with the next great invention maybe! (12)
M: Hmm... that's a good point! (12)
Text 9
M: Thank you for coming in today for an interview. What made you want to apply to our company (13)
W: Well, I want to work for the best, and my friend told me that your company got a well-respected name in the technology industry. So I applied.(13)
M: And which technology of ours interests you the most (14)
W: Well, I imagine most people would say your phones, as they are the best-selling products in your company. But I am a big fan of all the design of your VR glasses. (14)
M: How about our electric cars (15)
W: I don't drive, so while I find it interesting, it doesn't affect me personally.(15)
M: So how would you travel to work if you got the job
W: I take the subway, or on days when the weather is nice, I'd ride my electric bike.
M: I see. Would you describe yourself as a green person
W: Yes, although I don't really like the color green! I no longer buy products in plastic bottles and I volunteer to plant trees.
M: Good. The big focuses for our future are on green energy and recycling our products.(16)
W: That's great to hear.

I' ll never forget the first time I discovered the Rubik's Cube.(17) During a summer vacation, I was sent to my grandmother's house as my parents were busy with their work. One day when I was looking through my grandmother's items, I found this colorful toy, which was made up of smaller blocks that could be turned and moved around. My grandmother encouraged me to try to mix the colors and then put them back in order.(17)I had never enjoyed math. (19) But I loved all sorts of hands-on activities, especially when I found a solution for the problem. So I immediately loved it.(18)I even contacted my math teacher to get some tips on how to solve the cube quickly. It's said that Rubik's Cube makes people more intelligent, which I had no answer for. But surprisingly I found the art of math.(19)I shared this toy with as many people as possible.
After graduating with a degree in business, I started my own company making new and creative versions of this toy. And I hope we can sell Rubik’ s Cubes to different countries, so that children around the world can enjoy the fun of them.(20)
