What’s the cure for a broken heart What about for sadness, anxiety or loneliness For those visiting the Poetry Pharmacy (药店) — customers or patients, depending on how you see them — these are the questions on their minds. This bookshop on Oxford Street offers special medicine to those sorts of emotional wounds. Calm, comfort, inspiration: whatever you’ re searching for, there’s a book of poetry to help you find it.
From philosophical poems to romantic ones, poetry has long had the power to speak to the deepest parts of our soul. When other literary forms fail, it’s often poetry that has the answer, says Poetry Pharmacy founder Deb Alma. “At weddings and funerals (葬礼), it’s a poem that’s read,” she points out. “It’s the art that people in states of intense emotion turn to.”
With its expansive library of brightly coloured books, the pharmacy is every poetry fan’s dream. Alma knows that poetry alone won’t cure anyone of life’s greatest pain. Instead, this store serves as a representation of the idea that words cure all. The centrepiece is a rich red-brown cupboard containing small glass bottles labeled with various emotions: “love”, “boost” and “pride”. Some are more playful. There are pills for “hesitation” and “existential anxiety”, while a glass bottle at op reads: “Calm: Keep out of reach of children.”
It’s artistically pleasing jokes like these that have made this store a huge hit on social media. In the two months since its opening, the place has been consistently lively, with customers dropping in to buy gifts, sitting with a coffee from the pharmacy to read and reflect, and many documenting the experience for social media.
When asked why so many young people are interested in poetry again, Alma said, “In the absence of faith, we are all searching for meaning, for a deeper bond with each other.” The Poetry Pharmacy offers that. People sit down for a coffee and end up reading the poems attached to the tables, covering the walls, aloud. For those lacking closeness in their lives, the poems, like the pharmacy, provide “even in a small way, a little community”.
4. What do we know about customers entering the Poetry Pharmacy
A. They suffer from emotional pain. B. They are fond of reading books.
C. They are good at creating poems. D. They search for clinical treatment.
5. Why does Deb Alma mention weddings and funerals in paragraph 2
A. To argue the importance of art. B. To stress the significance of poetry.
C. To illustrate the necessity of literature. D. To promote the reputation of the shop.
6. What makes Poetry Pharmacy popular on social media
A. Well-arranged cupboards. B. Carefully-selected books.
C. A balance between life and leisure. D. A combination of wisdom and humor.
7. What does Alma think of young people’s enthusiasm in poetry
A. It causes their lack of spiritual faith.
B. It shows their urge to follow the crowd.
C. It builds meaningful connections among them.
D. It reflects their taste of literary appreciation.
C
In the journey through high school, students are often faced with academic challenges, social dramas, and multiple pressures. That is why the concept of mental resilience stands out. It is the superpower that lets you bounce back from setbacks and cope with the ups and downs in life.
Professor Lynn Warren, director of the Adolescent Development Research Institute(ADRl) , has conducted numerous studies on the psychological well-being of teenagers. In order to uncover how resilience impacts students’ academic journey, her research team carried out a comprehensive survey to gather representative samples and provide insightful data.
The study has revealed a strong positive correlation between resilience and academic engagement. Resilient students are found to be more deeply involved in class discussions, to take on leadership roles in school communities, and to seek out additional learning opportunities. Moreover, these students demonstrate superior academic performance and better understanding of complex subject matters. Mr. Thompson, a mathematics teacher at Evergreen High School, exemplifies the findings of the study through his teaching practices. He has made it his mission not only to teach math but also to inject a sense of resilience in his students. He employs a variety of methods to cheer students up. Over time, Mr. Thompson’s efforts began to bear fruit. His students’ attitudes towards math shifted from fear to fascination. They started to look ahead , and more importantly, this process helped them develop a growth mindset.
Professor Warren, based on her research, recommends creating an encouraging atmosphere where teens can freely discuss their challenges and receive helpful feedback. She also stresses the value of building a supportive network. Whether it’s a teacher, a coach, or a peer, having someone who can give you a boost when you need it can make all the difference. So, the next time you face a challenge, remember, it’s not about avoiding them, but about learning to bounce back from them.
8. What does the underlined word “resilience” in paragraph 1 refer to
A. Toughness. B. Challenge. C. Conflict. D. Setback.
9. How has mental resilience affected students’ academic performance
A. Unchanged academic behaviors. B. Additional roles in class discussions.
C. Improved engagement and performance. D. More opportunities in choosing subjects.
10. What can we infer about Mr. Thompson from the text
A. His attitude towards teaching has shifted. B. He inspires students to be mentally resilient.
C. His efforts to promote resilience are in vain. D. He wants to challenge the findings of the study.
11. What does Professor Warren mainly talk about in the last paragraph
A. Suggestions on building resilience. B. Discussions of academic challenges.
C. Importance of a supportive network. D. Recommendations on future studies
D
Large Language Models (LLMs)are artificial intelligence systems designed to process and generate natural language. Trained on large datasets, they can perform tasks like translation, summarization, and academic writing. However, their use comes with challenges and risks.
One major issue with LLMs is “hallucination”, where the model produces summaries that sound convincing but are based on unreliable or incorrect data. For instance, in 2023, researcher sat the University of California used an LLM to assist with a drug research review. However, the model cited journals and articles that appeared credible but were entirely fabricated, leading there searchers to withdraw their paper during the peer review(同行评审) process.
David Leslie, a professor at Queen Mary University of London, highlights another significant challenge: “The LLM operates like a black box, with its internal workings hidden, making it hard to understand how outputs are generated, raising concerns about its reliability-even when results seem accurate.” Without insight into how the LLM reaches its conclusions, users cannot be sure whether the outputs are based on solid data, increasing the potential for errors or unintended consequences.
Another problem with LLMs is their reliance on historical data, which can lead to biases(偏见). For example, in IT hiring, if the model is trained on data where most employees were male, it may unintentionally favor male candidates. The model simply learns from past patterns without understanding why they exist or questioning whether they are reasonable, potentially deepening outdated trends and overlooking factors like diversity goals or current qualifications. This can result in unfair outcomes for women and other underrepresented groups.
While LLMs can process data and generate responses, they lack the ability to analyze, evaluate, and make independent decisions. In contrast, humans can use logic, context, and experience to solve complex problems and make informed choices. Therefore, LLMs should be seen as an enhancement, not a replacement for human judgment.
12. Why did researchers at the University of California withdraw their paper
A. They cited non-existent data. B. They made up research results.
C. They presented over-simplified research. D. They put forward miscalculated statistics.
13. Why does David Leslie describe the LLM as a black box
A. Its decision-making is invisible. B. Its reasoning process is data-based.
C. It can process complicated datasets. D. It may generate incorrect information.
14 Which aspect of LLMs does paragraph 4 mainly focus on
A. Its dependence on IT experts. B. Its lack of critical assessment
C. Its inability to learn from history D. Its preference for professional candidates.
15. What could be the best title for the text
A. LLMs: Reliable or Risky B. LLMs: The Future or a Passing Trend
C. LLMs for Researchers: Friends or Enemies D. LLMs in Science: Enhancement or Decline

An Unforgettable Thanksgiving
We were living in Jakarta, Indonesia. However, our family of six had to experience a holiday without my wife, Esther, who was in Singapore. This meant that I was in charge of our four children. It was a struggle, putting in part-time at the union mission office, then coming home to manage the children.
Shortly after arriving in Indonesia, I made friends with some of the employees at the United States embassy, where a number of United States marines (海军陆战队) were stationed, and I had great conversations with them. I checked out films from the United States Information Service office on the embassy to show to our children and neighbors.
With Thanksgiving week upon us I thought what we would do to celebrate Many thoughts ran through my mind. The film about the National Football League game of the week could be checked out for a few days.
The Sunday before Thanksgiving, the quiet of our house was disrupted by the sound of a jeep. We heard it drive up and stop in our driveway. Before we could determine who had come to visit us, a big muscular man was knocking at our door. It was Willie, one marine guard stationed at the United States Embassy. He held a big box in his arms, leaving me instructions: “Pastor Jones, let’s have a real nice Thanksgiving dinner together, OK ” Then out the door he went, “I’ll bring four other marine guards”. I immediately investigated the contents of the box: a frozen turkey and a half-gallon container of Magnolia ice cream — Singapore’s best brand.
The next day I walked from our union mission office to our home. I came across one of my newly-made friends, Tim. He was walking along, depressed and downhearted. I greeted him and asked, “What’s the matter, Tim ”
“Pastor Jones,” he said, “this is our first Thanksgiving away from home, and my wife and I are in the dumps. We went shopping for a turkey for Thanksgiving, and all we could find was a lot of skinny chickens. No turkeys anywhere. Thanksgiving will be no perfect despite my wife’s excellent cooking skills.”
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。
No turkey First Thanksgiving away from home I made a deal with Tim on the spot.

At the appointed time we heard the jeep from the embassy at the gate of our house.

In conclusion, “The Lion King” is a must-watch for anyone who loves animation, adventure, and heartfelt stories. I highly recommend it to all my fellow students!

【52题答案】
【答案】One possible version:
No turkey First Thanksgiving away from home I made a deal with Tim on the spot. If he would ask his wife to prepare the turkey, they could take part of it for themselves and let the marines from the U. S. embassy eat the rest of it. “Yes!” he responded quickly, as if to seal the deal before I could change my mind. “She’ll be glad to do that.” Later that day Tim was at my home to get the big frozen turkey. A day later he returned the “marine” portion of the cooked bird with many words of appreciation. When Thanksgiving Day came, we five Joneses were ready. We had the National Football League game of the week to watch after dinner. We had the “marine” part of the turkey on a platter with all the trimmings.
At the appointed time we heard the jeep from the embassy at the gate of our house. The hungry marines all wearing civilian clothes, got out of the jeep and eagerly entered our house, where the aroma of food filled the air. What a dinner that was and how unusual—five marines, four children and me! When the meal was finished, they wanted to go outside and shoot basketball on our little court. My children enjoyed watching them shoot baskets and laugh at one another. It was truly a fun time! Returning to the house, we served the pie and ice cream, watched the football game, and finally said goodbye. The food was abundant and delicious, the fellowship was superb, the recreation was relaxing. An unforgettable Thanksgiving!
