Dear Younger Me,
It's hard to believe we' re nearing our senior years. While I hope we have 20 or 30 good years ahead, it's time to think about some choices we regret.
I can't hold you responsible for decisions made before we turned 18. Our brains weren't fully developed, and being the youngest child in the family made it hard to find independence.We went against our parents. We got close to friends, but then again pushed them back. Yes,there were secrets and lies, but that's part of growing up.
However, I think you should apologize for how you started our career(事业). You had always dreamed of being a reporter, but settled for editing work only because it was the easiest thing to do in your field. Over time, you felt you didn't learn much, even though the pay was good and working hours were pretty flexible. It wasn't until we changed to marketing that we found a more satisfying path and met the love of our life.
We bought a lovely home in the city centre. But starting a family brought new challenges.The responsibilities of parenting took over our job goals as we got caught up in our kids' activities. And when the kids went to college, we faced an empty home and had to rediscover who we were besides parents. It felt like a new stage of youth, where we were re-learning about life without focusing on our kids. We found part-time jobs and meaningful volunteer work,trying to stay connected while finding our own space.
Now, as we approach senior years, life feels peaceful. We' ve had ups and downs, from losing our mom to watching our kids grow. So, younger me, let's pardon ourselves for past mistakes. We can't move forward until we make peace with our past. Hopefully, our best days are still ahead.
The Senior Me

25. What makes“my” growth so challenging before“I” turned 18

C. Dealing with relationships with others. D. Wanting to stay dependent on parents.
26. Why was“I” disappointed with the first job
A. It didn't pay much. B. It didn't match my major.
C. It required long working hours. D. It offered me little job growth.

C
Sports fans use their clothes and colors to show how much they love their team. “This behavior has much to do with honour,” said Jonathan Jensen, professor at the University of North Carolina. He and his colleagues found if a student's football team won a game, it doubled the chance of the student wearing the team's clothes, while a loss greatly reduced the possibility of wearing team clothes by more than half.
Winning or losing not only changes how fans dress, but also how they talk about their connection with the team to show whose side they are on. Andrew Billings, director at the University of Alabama, used machine learning to analyze (分析) more than 7,000 social media posts during a major sporting event. They found that fans increased the use of first-person pronouns, saying how“we” won the day when their team scored or won. By comparison, the fans talked about how“they” did not perform well when their team was behind or lost.
This behavior of fans shows how strongly they feel connected to their teams. Taking part in these shared experiences provides them with more opportunities to socialize, which can strengthen their relationships with others. As Jensen said, “When you interact (互动) with people, you feel more connected with them, and you also benefit from better mental health and are more likely to stay involved (投入).”
However, there are potential drawbacks of becoming too involved in a sports team,especially when your connection with the team becomes stronger than the people around you.“We' ve heard cases where people have missed their son's or daughter's wedding because it was happening during an Alabama football game,” Billings said. “Sometimes when you put too many eggs in the sports basket, you are leaving your mood up to athletes or teams that you have no control over.”
28. What may a student post online for his team's success according to paragraph 2
A. They are all the best! B. Look at our cute players.
C. She could have done better! D. He is definitely a handsome guy.
29. What can we learn about being sports fans according to paragraph 3
A. It harms their mental health. B. It strengthens their sports skills.
C. It influences their family relationships. D. It encourages their social connection.
30. What does the underlined word“drawbacks” in paragraph 4 mean
A. Differences. B. Benefits. C. Disadvantages. D. Responsibilities.
31. What is Billings's attitude to over-involvement in a sports team
A. Negative. B. Confused. C. Supportive. D. Uncertain.
D
Whale communication has long been a puzzle for scientists, with their underwater sound—“click... click... click” — remaining largely unexplained. However, thanks to the surprising abilities of artificial intelligence (AI), researchers from a program can interpret the sounds of these amazing sea animals.
The program is called the Whale Translation Project (WTP), whose meaning is to know what whales are saying. Its goal is clear but very difficult to achieve. Understanding the communication of whales and other animals could inspire conservation (保护) efforts. For example, the discovery that humpback whales sing to each other in the 1960s led to successful conservation activities and laws.
The WTP started when Gruber, a biologist at Harvard University, turned to a computer scientist for help about dealing with a large amount of data on whale sounds. They thought of applying machine learning, used for improving human language translations, to whales. The sound of click, similar to a binary code(二进制), is easy for AI to analyze.
Scientists once presented the sounds of a whale using a series of lines to show the number of clicks per second. Now, with the help of AI, Gruber can quickly turn the thousands of whale sounds from hours of recordings into a new kind of pictures that look like musical notes. This method helps to find tiny differences in the sounds. Gruber can use AI to analyze the differences and the specific context, like the behavior of moving to the surface and hunting for food, and thus understand the meaning of the whale sound easily. He can also discover how whales interact, getting 99% right in predicting(预测) the next click.
This kind of work isn't limited to whales. Suresh Neethirajan, a computer science and agriculture professor, studies how farmers can use real-time observation to explain animal behaviors. He collects data, such as body temperature, paired with recorded sounds and videos,to understand whether animals are comfortable or not. With AI, he can recognise sick animals quickly, improving their well-being.
32. What is the purpose of mentioning the discovery in the 1960s
A. To show the success of protecting the environment.
B. To explain the difficulty of saving humpback whales.
C. To stress the value of studying animal communication.
D. To introduce the challenge of understanding whale language.
33. How can AI help according to paragraph 4
A. It records whale sound quickly. B. It processes sound data effectively.
C. It reads musical notes correctly. D. It promotes whale interactions directly.
34. What can we learn about AI according to the last paragraph
A. It cures diseases of animals. B. It improves farmers' well-being.
C. It aims to change animal behavior. D. It helps to understand animals' needs.
35. What is the main idea of the passage
A. Scientists develop machine learning. B. Scientists discover a new whale sound.
C. AI creates a unique type of musical note. D. AI unlocks the secrets of animal language.

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
When applying to college, most students’ goal is to “stand out.” Some believe a beautifully-written essay will make them so, while others think a long activity list will give them an advantage. 36 But one of the best ways is to show how you are a person that can make impact inside and outside of the classroom.
Don't know where to start 37 Take part in group discussions, ask and answer questions, and turn to your teachers for help if you need it. By being a thoughtful and curious student, you can help shape an in-class environment which other students are excited to join in.
And for off-class activities, start by recognising your interest. 38 Joining a club,volunteering, or taking part in other activities of your interest is the first step towards making an impact. On top of that, take action. 39 And don't be afraid to seek out solutions. For example, if you feel some club policies could be improved, find the right way to share your thoughts and offer useful suggestions to achieve the results you desire.
A soldier who does not want to be a general (将军) is not considered a good soldier. 40 Taking on a leadership role in after-class activities is one of the most effective ways to create that impact. By becoming a leader in a club, you not only show your organizational skills and personal charm to college admission officers, but also build meaningful connections, inspiring your members to work toward a better future.
A. Do speak up if you notice a problem.
B. Truly, these are all important elements.
C. Otherwise, others might get a head start.
D. Find the things you love and get involved.
E. Fit into the environment in a low-key way.
F. Look no further and be present in the classroom.
G. And the same can be said about making an impact.

My interest in marathon(马拉松) reflects my 41 — my life must have purpose,and I want to see success in everything I join in. For every race, I aim to 42 . And for a long time, I stuck to this idea. Even when life was hard and I could hardly breathe, Ipushed on, 43 to settle for less.
But last summer,I tore a ligament(韧带) in my knee. The recovery was a real 44 and out of reach. The doctor told me that coming back to long-distance running was unlikely, but that didn't stop me. I wouldn't let the injury(伤病) 45 me. After months of hard work,I felt ready to race again, and that drive to win kept 46 me.
I stood on the course once again, but as soon as I crossed the start line, I sensed something was wrong. My legs felt 47 , and the pressure in my body made it hard to breathe. I tried to 48 my strength, but this time, it quickly became clear that achieving my expected time would be 49 .
By the eighth mile,I changed my attitude and decided to follow where my heart led me. As I looked around at the thousands of runners, I felt a wave of 50 , for having recovered from my injury, being back on the course, and once again sharing this amazing experience with so many of them. Instead of focusing on winning,I chose to 51 the joy of the moment and turned the 52 into a fun run.
Truly, running has changed me. While I still want to 53 myself, I no longer feel the need to 54 anything to myself or anyone else. Even though I didn't get first place,I' ve grown stronger, gained more 55 , and become kinder to myself.

Dear Chris,
I’m writing to share with you the exhibition of intangible cultural heritage of Guangdong. It was really a fascinating show of our region’s rich traditions.
The exhibition was like a big box filled with many wonderful examples of our culture, such as opera, festive culture,local cuisine, and the art of tea-making. I was particularly attracted by the costumes and tunes of the Cantonese opera, which brought our ancestors’ stories to life. With the aroma of traditional cuisine filling the air, I sampled some delicious dim sum and sweet rice dumplings. The tea ceremony was a relaxing experience, with tea artists demonstrating the art of serving Chinese tea. Appreciating the depth and diversity of our heritage, I left with a newfound respect for the artisans who keep these traditions alive and a desire to learn more about my cultural roots.
This memorable exhibition was really rewarding and I will share more when we meet. Wishing you well.
Yours,
Li Hua
