in the farm. We are passionate about farming in balance with nature and regenerating the environment in which we
are able to grow the most nutritious food, from our farm to your table!
At Ololo, we prepare set menus for the day based on what is fresh and seasonal in our farm. All chicken and
duck meat is grown at Ololo as well as our fresh flavoured eggs. A day visit includes a 2-course lunch, a guided

As a boy, I watched spacecraft launches, and when looking up at all the stars in the night sky, I wondered
whether I could go to space. I wish I could tell that boy that his dreams would come true and that he would grow up
to pilot spaceships.
When I first arrived in space, I travelled eight and a half minutes on an extremely wild ride on a rocket ship.
However, it was short enough that it was more like driving a car at maximum performance on a very rough (颠簸的)
road. As soon as I got to weightlessness my body was in a completely different environment, which brought about
throwing-up and exhaustion. Travel sickness medicine helped my body adapt to it.
It's extremely mind-expanding to get the true reality of our world from space, from glancing at the entire
length of the Himalayas to seeing the wildfires of Australia. And perhaps the most impactful is to see something
rare. One dawn, I looked down the world with my camera trying to steal every moment I could. It was just the right
angle between the sun behind the horizon and the right rare collection of ice crystals(冰晶), high in the atmosphere.
There was an unearthly light, almost like a surreal rainbow. I felt like the world had just shown me a secret.
One night, I saw a shooting star, an enormous, random (随机的) rock from the universe trapped by the Earth's
gravity. You can't help but think that rock just went by us. It did make my blood run cold when I thought it could
have just as easily come through our spaceship and made a significant hole, which probably would have killed all
of us. I know how to repair holes in the ship, but if the chance event is large enough, you're dead. It is dangerous,
risk-filled, but fascinatingly beautiful and rewarding.
24. What can we learn about the author in paragraph 1
A. He was fond of travelling. B. He longed to be an astronaut.
C. He had an enquiring mind. D. He desired to own a spaceship.
25. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 2 refer to
A. The long space journey. B. The poor car performance.
C. The sudden speed change. D. The weightless environment.
26. What impressed the author most when he saw the earth from space
A. The hard-to-see light. B. The shiny ice crystals.
C. The dream-like rainbow. D. The accidental wildfires.
27 Which word best describes the author according to the text
A. Adventurous. B. Hardworking. C. Innovative. D. Responsible.
C
Who among us hasn’t weighed up the value of attending an event that required a long commute (通勤), or
found themselves in a bad mood due to being stuck in traffic But while it’s obvious that some activities will bring
us joy and others only frustration, translating this understanding into data that can help guide policy decisions has
historically proved difficult.
It’s what Dr. Christian Krekel and Dr. George MacKerron have been exploring. They propose a new method
for estimating the Value of Time (VOT) and calculate (计算), for the first time, VOTs for a wide range of common
activities such as walking, commuting and socialising. Through an app called Mappiness, they can ask people about
their happiness randomly throughout the day and record how they are actually feeling in that moment while doing
something or being somewhere. With data from over 30,000 people around the UK, the researchers were able to
identify how people felt when carrying out 42 daily activities and calculate a monetary (货币的) value for each
activity.
Interestingly, “waiting or queuing” was found to have a strong and significant negative impact on happiness,
ranking as the third least enjoyable activity. The VOT shows that spending 60 minutes waiting is found to be worth
12.20 per hour; commuting 8.40 per hour; and waiting during commuting, a huge 17.20 per hour. These high
costs suggest that respondents would be better off spending their time doing something else. Or, as Dr. Krekel says,
“Someone who is waiting for 60 minutes would need to be paid 12.20 to achieve the same level of happiness if
they were not waiting.”
This new method of calculating VOT allows researchers to measure the benefits of funding time-saving
facilities, helping policymakers to make informed decisions over where best to spend money. By showing how
impactful waiting and commuting are on the population, the research makes a strong case for funding projects that
would reduce the time people spend doing these activities and promote the wellbeing of all who stand to benefit.
28. Why does the author mention two situations in paragraph 1
A To present a fact. B. To introduce the topic.
C. To explain the issue. D. To compare the differences.
29. The researchers estimated the VOTs through ________.
A. random surveys B. calculated case studies
C. on-site observations D. face-to-face interviews
30. Which of the following might have the highest VOT according to the research
A. Commuting to school on a bus for thirty minutes.
B. Waiting for a coffee for nearly one hour at a café.
C. Spending two hours shopping with a friend at a mall.
D. Being stuck in traffic for an hour on the way to work.
31. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about
A. The appeal for future studies. B. The challenges of the project.
C. The application of the research. D. The improvement of the method.
D
At the crack of dawn in California’s Central Valley, birds sing their morning songs and some of them dive
down from the branches of a tree that has stood its ground for centuries. A few feet above the tree's base is a white
ring, indicating how high the San Joaquin River once rose. Dos Rios is supposed to flood — it’s a floodplain,
recently transformed into California’s newest state park.
Just 15 years ago, this area looked quite different. In the summer months, the River flowed lazily around the
edges of this park, but in the spring, when snow melted, the river took on a forceful character, sweeping through
this land, which caused damage to crops and homes nearby.
Therefore, in 2008, Rentner, president of the nonprofit organization River Partners, began the process of
buying the land from a farming family. Since then, her team has been transforming the land into what it naturally
was. Reengineering involves cutting holes into levees (防洪堤) to release floodwaters, sparing nearby communities.
The solution is designed to work with nature instead of against it, making Dos Rios a new place for people to enjoy
nature.
For indigenous (土著的) people who were forced to leave their homes, this new park also means a lot. With
the construction of a 3-acre Native Use Garden, indigenous people plan to plant native plants that would be
beneficial not only to the habitat, but also for indigenous herbs and cultural practices.
Now, the land, just like a time machine, looks more like it did hundreds of years ago, before farms and towns
cropped up. Though holding great promise, the 2. 5-square-mile area is a small part of a vast agricultural region,
and even restoring (修复) that much land has been no easy task. However, Rentner is optimistic, “We are thinking
about doing 10 more Dos Rioses just in the next decade. Maybe more.”
32. What was Dos Rios like before becoming a state park
A. A plain threatened by floods. B. A valley covered with trees.
C. A natural reserve rich in water. D. A city park famous for birds.
33. What is the working principle of River Partners
A. Boosting the yields in the local fields. B. Making the most of natural resources.
C. Putting the safety of local communities first. D. Operating in harmony with the natural world.
34. What is a consequence of the restoration of Dos Rios according to the text
A. Introduction of foreign plant species. B. Loss of indigenous cultural practices.
C. Increased efforts in restoration projects. D. Further damage to the local environment.
35. Which can be a suitable title for the text
A. Dos Rios in California: A Secret Wonderland
B. California’s Newest State Park: A Time Machine
C Indigenous People in Central Valley: A Living Legend
D. Nonprofit Organization River Partners: A Green Pioneer

Body Language in the Virtual World
As social beings, we naturally interpret body language as an expression of mood or intention in real life.
___36___ Here are four body language considerations that will result in your bigger digital impact in video calls.
Make a positive and lasting impression. The way you hold yourself affects how others perceive you. ___37___
Similarly, slumping on the sofa conveys unwillingness to take the task seriously. Maintaining a proper posture by
sitting up straight is the key to making a positive impression from the beginning.
___38___ In video calls, you need to be aware that less is more. Too many hand movements can be
distracting in a small screen — people need time to take in what they are hearing. And when you are listening to
others, glancing at your palms and drumming your fingers could also indicate to others that you are either bored or
frustrated.
Guard against “resting bored face” syndrome (综合征). Our facial expressions are visible on screen, so
demonstrating an objective response to whatever you see and hear is a must-have. But communicating that you are
mindful at all times is challenging during a video meeting when “resting bored face” syndrome can set in — a
facial expression that others register as boredom. ___39___
Be present and active — don’t multitask. Don’t check your email or tackle other work tasks when you join a
video call. ___40___ While you may be confident that you can successfully do two or more things at once, and not
lose track of what’s being discussed, the non-verbal clues you are sending other participants will say otherwise.
A. Master the art of employing gestures.
B. Use fewer hand movements to avoid conflicts.
C. Even if you are silent, others can see what you are up to.
D. For instance, crossed arms can imply defensiveness or annoyance.
E. This also applies to our virtual workplace with common video calls.
F. To avoid this, remember to nod, smile and lean forward occasionally.
G. Therefore, it’s effective to straighten up to leave a positive impression.

67. 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。
Mom drank stories with her morning coffee, a warm soup of words mixed with paragraphs, commas (逗号),
and periods. They came in various flavors and were all appetizing. Whenever I attempted to read aloud like Mom,
however, no words dared to climb out. My world was silent, without a voice to call my own.
That silence invited jeers (嘲笑), tears, and many heartbreaks. I couldn't remember how many times I had
switched schools and how many times I had run home crying, signing desperately to Mom, “I'm done with school.”
My fingers were the voice I couldn't find and the only way I could cry out. Everything changed, however, when I
met Ms. Park.
It was a lovely day. Mom drove me to my new school and I felt calm until the car stopped in front of a large
white building. The moment I got off, Ms. Park, my new English teacher, came up. “Nice to meet you,” she signed.
How could she know sign language! I signed back while pretending to be distracted by the posters on the walls.
“Interested in our writing contest ” she asked. I looked up, noticing the huge black-and-white words on one poster.
“Try it! Just hand in a story to me next week,” Ms. Park smiled. The thought of entering fascinated me. It was my
chance to speak without actually speaking.
At home, I sat with a blank sheet of paper in front of me. Closing my eyes, I heard Mom's honey-like stories,
so tasty that anyone who listened begged for more. She always told me that satisfying stories came from the heart.
Then, I had it. What story could be closer to my heart than my own So after a week of intense writing, I let my
story flow through my pen and drip onto the paper and handed it to Ms. Park.
Then, one day, when walking through a crowded hall, I saw Ms. Park signing from afar, “You've made the cut
(入选)!” Her dancing fingers were too good to be true and I began waiting for the day of the upcoming awards
ceremony.

（1）续写词数应为 150 个左右；

66.【答案】Dear David,
I’m thrilled to share with you our recent information technology class where we delved into AI learning. We
explored various features, including language translation and problem-solving. It was fascinating to see how AI can
comprehend different languages and provide instant solutions to complex problems. Experiencing these functions
first-hand has widened my perspective on the potential of AI in education. I feel excited and curious about what
more we can achieve with AI.
67.【答案】That day, however, I learnt all winners should read stories on stage. Panic gripped me immediately. How could I, without a voice of my own, read aloud to an audience My heart raced as I imagined the crowd waiting for words that wouldn’t come. Ms. Park noticed my distress and signed reassuringly, “We’ll find a way together.” Though fear lingered, her words comforted me somewhat. Together, we rehearsed tirelessly, combining my signs with her clear voice, until the story felt like a joint performance we were ready to deliver.
A story began streaming from my fingers, along with Ms. Park’s voice. As her voice rang out, matched perfectly with my signs, I felt a surge of confidence. The audience’s eyes shifted between Ms. Park and me, understanding each word and gesture. For the first time, I felt heard without actually speaking. My silence had found a voice, shared through a partnership that transcended spoken language. When we finished, the applause roared through the hall, and my heart soared, knowing I had finally told my story. I felt the joy of being understood and accepted.
