“Are we alone in the universe That’s the key question we’re trying to answer here,” Meenakshi Wadhwa, a planetary scientist, tells her class. As she explains, one student takes notes while another holds up an iPhone to take a photo of the slides. In many ways this lecture hall at Arizona State University is like any other. A group of enthusiastic women sit attentively in the front row; the men are spread out in the back. But the hearing aids suggest how unusual this class is.
Mirabella, a 20-storey “university retirement community” on ASU’s campus, is home to over 300 retired people. When it was opened in 2020, the senior-living facility was nearly fully subscribed. Most residents are having a ball. They can attend the same classes and cultural events as students, but with the distinct benefit of not having to take exams. In their dorms, facilities include an art studio, a pool and gym, and a games room. Only the second floor feels institutional, with a memory-care centre and rooms for residents who need round-the-clock attention.
This is part of a wider trend. An estimated 85 colleges in America are now connected to senior living communities. With more than 10,000 baby boomers(生育高峰期出生的人) in America turning 65 every day, the opportunity for alternative forms of retirement is pared with previous generations, boomers are wealthy, educated and picky. They want to remain active and not locked away. These wishes can all be met on a university campus.
For universities, welcoming pensioners(领退休金者) can make sense too. Nationally, undergraduate enrolment(入学) dropped from over 18m in 2010 to below 16m in 2022. As for what to do with the extra space, the smartest ones, Andrew Carle at Georgetown University says, provide a continuum of care—including for the very last stage of life. “The charity is the icing on the cake,” he says of the potential that residents will include universities in their wills.
24. How does the writer introduce the topic
A. By raising a question. B. By making a comparison.
C. By offering an explanation. D. By giving a description.
25. Why are university retirement communities well-received
A. They provide free medical car
B. They have various research facilities.
C. They allow students to take exams flexibly.
D. They help seniors live an active and engaging life.
26. How can universities benefit from integrating senior living communities
A. It improves university teaching programs.
B. It addresses the university enrolment decline.
C. It draws public attention to university education.
D. It earns universities the fame for caring for seniors.
27. What is the text mainly about
A. Different forms of retirement.
B. The education welfare of pensioners.
C. The trend of retiring on college campuses.
D. A new way for universities to make profits.

For many, travel isn’t just about the destination-it’s about making the most of the journey. However, for a lot of people, the journey is often ruined by an uncomfortable experience often accompanied by vomiting, known as motion sickness. If you’ve ever felt the unwelcome urge to vomit while reading or using your device in a moving vehicle, you’re not alone. Recognizing this common issue, Apple has stepped up to offer a revolutionary solution: the Vehicle Motion Cues feature for iPhones and iPads.
Motion sickness occurs when there is a disconnect between what your eyes see and what your body feels. When you’re in a moving vehicle, your body senses motion through its vestibular system (the inner ear), but if your eyes are focused on a still screen that doesn’t reflect this movement, the brain receives mixed signals. This sensory conflict can lead to dizziness, nausea, and overall discomfort-symptoms all too familiar to motion sickness sufferers.
Apple’s new Vehicle Motion Cues feature is designed to bridge this gap and bring relief to those likely to experience motion sickness. This revolutionary feature works by displaying animated dots, around the edges of your screen, which move at the same time and speed as the motion of your vehicle. These moving cues help keep the motion your body feels in line with what your eyes see, effectively reducing the sensory mismatch that causes motion sickness.
The magic lies in the simplicity and effectiveness. The animated dots move in consistency with the vehicle’s motion, providing a visual representation of the movement your body is experiencing. By matching the visual input with the physical sensations of motion, your brain is less likely to experience the confusion that leads to sickness. Early reports and user feedback indicate that Vehicle Motion Cues is receiving high praise for its effectiveness. So next time you embark on a journey, whether short or long, remember that Apple’s got your back-or rather, your brain-helping you make the most of every mile with ease and comfort.
28. Which type of people can be interested in Vehicle Motion Cues
A. Frequent travelers. B. Book lovers.
C. Vehicle operators. D. Sport scientists.
29. What is paragraph 2 mainly about
A. The principle of Apple’s new design. B. The cause of motion sickness.
C. The functions of Apple’s new design. D. The symptoms of motion sickness.
30. By displaying animated dots around the screen, Apple’s Vehicle Motion Cues is able to
A. ease sensory conflicts in the brain
B. tell the mismatched physical sensations
C. balance the movement of our eyes and body
D. increase the effectiveness of vehicle motion
31. Which can be the best title of the passage
A. Make the Most of Your Journey: Apple Bridges the Gap
B. Find the Magic of a Moving Vehicle: Apple’s Got Your Back
C. Enjoy Your Reading: Apple Offers a Revolutionary Solution
D. Say Goodbye to Motion Sickness: Apple Introduces Its New Design

A few days ago, I watched a video of myself talking in perfect Chinese. I’ve been studying the language on and off for only a few years, and I’m far from fluent. But there I was, pronouncing each character just as a native speaker would, “My favorite food is sushi,” I said-wo zui xihuan de shiwu shi shousi.
I’d created the video using software from a Los Angeles-based artificial-intelligence start-up called HeyGen, The technology, which only needs a single selfie and a script to generate deepfake videos of real people “saying almost anything, is a testament(证明) to the advancements in AI language tools. This got me thinking about the declining interest in language learning with fewer students enrolling in foreign language courses and the decrease of English proficiency among young people in some places.
AI translation, integrated into social media and messaging platforms, seems to be everywhere. Even language-learning apps are using AI-generated content in their marketing. However, language translation is an art rather than a science. Something enormous will be lost in exchange for that convenience, As Anne, a Chinese translator said, “Building a ladder between widely different languages, such as Chinese and English, is sometimes as difficult as a doctor building a bridge in a patient’s heart.”
Language learning fosters cultural competency, a skill that AI cannot simply copy. Learning a different way to speak, read, and write helps people discover new ways to see the world. No machine can replace such a profoundly human experience. Deborah Cohn, a language professor, emphasizes that language learning is actually about understanding and connecting with different cultures: Instead of abandoning language courses in favor of AI, some educators advocate for emphasizing the intercultural aspects of language learning, Paula Krebs of the MLA points out that even with a “universal translator, sometimes, the greater meaning of people’s utterance(言辞) remains a mystery.
In essence, while AI language tools offer convenience, they lack the depth and cultural insight that comes from human language learning. The challenge and beauty of learning a language are in understanding the cultural tapestry(织锦) that weaves through words, something AI has yet to achieve.
32. Why does the author give the example in paragraph 1
A. To promote the language software.
B. To show off his Chinese language skills.
C. To prove learning a language is a wasted effort.
D. To encourage critical thinking about AI language tools.
33. What can we learn from paragraph 3
A. Al translation deserves more attention.
B. Language apps play a key role in marketing.
C. Language translation is far beyond technology.
D. Learning a different language is an uphill battle.
34. What is the key benefit of learning a language according to the passage
A. Better digital literacy. B. Improved translation skills.
C. Deeper cultural confidence. D. Effective intercultural interaction.
35. What does the author imply in the last paragraph
A. AI language tools offer convenience.
B. Al facilitates language learning in terms of culture.
C. AI is far from perfect in helping language understanding.
D. Al has achieved success in the development of language learning tools

How Loneliness Is Killing Us
Loneliness is absolutely an epidemic(流行病) in our society, but it’s been growing for decades. Loneliness is the sense that “I am less connected to other people than I want to be.” 36 And that makes it different from isolation(独处). I can deliberately isolate myself and feel great about that, but only you can tell if you’re lonely.
37 In some studies, as many as.60% of people will say that they feel lonely much of the time. Young adults aged 16 to 24 are, the loneliest age, group. There are many factors that are responsible for that, Loneliness was on the rise from the 1950s in part because of the rise of private cars. We’ve become a much more mobile society where the networks of family and friends get loose as people move for jobs and other kinds of opportunities like education.
38 But then it tears us away from the communities we are born into and spend much of our lives creating. When television came into the American home, there was more of a decline in investing in our communities. And that was made worse as the digital revolution gave us more and more screens to look at.
Research finds loneliness is dangerous to our health. 39 In addition, people who are lonely in late life have more rapid brain decline.
The choice we can make to keep us on a good path of well-being is to invest in our relationships with other people. 40 You belong. You matter. You’re connected.
A. It’s a very subjective experience.
B. All of that is good on the one hand.
C. You may feel lost and may have low confidence.
D. Stress coming from loneliness causes physical breakdown,
E. Since the 1950s, people have been less and less invested in other people.
F. People go to faraway colleges and only get in touch with families on screen.
G. A good way is to find an activity around other people where you are comfortable.

The terms “high-con text culture” and “low-context culture” 56 (introduce) by Edward Hall in the 1970s as part of his research on intercultural communication and understanding.
“High-context culture” countries rely on indirect communication and silent 57 (signal) such as facial expressions and body munication is built on relationships, shared experiences and emotions to make decisions, and avoiding 58 (open) expressing disagreements.
“Low-con text culture” countries like Australia and Germany rely on direct communication and 59 (write) rules to convey meaning. They rely less on shared assumptions of the group and the context of the situation, 60 results in the need for being more precise.
Understanding “high-context and low-context cultures” is a huge advantage for global businesses, as it has an impact 61 communication, negotiation, and more. Even websites can differ, with “high-con text culture” websites often 62 (feature) more animation(动画), and “low-context culture” websites highlighting textual information.
Besides cultural context, 63 (person) experiences and preferences also shape communication, so it’s important 64 (note) that every person, country, companies, and groups have 65 mix of both—so understanding, listening, and observing will always outweigh theories. But they are great tools to better perceive the world around us.

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。
Frank Daily stared down at the frozen ground. He kicked chunks of snow with his new Nike shoes. He only pretended to listen to the chat of his friends Norm and Ed, as they all got on the number 10 bus after school.
Frank and his friends sat down at the back of the bus along with several other high school boys, some from other schools. The bus headed west on Blue Mound Road. He still remembered another cold, gray day just a month ago in November when his world crashed down around him, as he read the team list, searching desperately for his name. It wasn’t there.
The bus braked suddenly, and Frank naturally pressed his Nikes against the floor. “It must have been my size,” he thought, “Five-feet-four. Since I’m new at Marquette High, the coach must have taken one look at me and my shoes and decided I was too small to join the basketball team.” He had been a star athlete in all the sports in primary school. Now, it seemed he was a nothing.
The bus stopped at the County Institutions grounds. Frank glanced up at the driver, who had a nickname “Kojak” because of his bald head.
An elderly woman hung onto the handrail and slowly pulled herself onto the bus. As she sank into the seat behind the bus driver, her feet kicked up, and Frank saw that she was barefoot.
As Kojak got the bus back into traffic, he yelled over his shoulder, “Where are your shoes, lady It was below 10 degrees out there.” “I can’t afford shoes,” the woman answered. She pulled her worn-out coat collar around her neck. Some of the boys at the back exchanged glances and laughed.
“I got on the bus just to get my feet warm,” the woman continued. “If you don’t mind, I’ll just ride around with you for a bit.”
Kojak scratched his bald head and shouted, “Now just tell me how come you can’t afford shoes ”
“My husband is badly ill in the hospital, so we only have money for food and necessities,” the woman said in a low voice.
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。
Frank looked down at his new Nike basketball shoes.
Then Frank hurried to the door and was about to step down.
