A group of 75 female volunteers from India’s Odisha state has spent every day of the last 20 years patrolling (巡逻) a 75-hectare forest to protect it from illegal woodcutters.
In 1999, the eastern state of Odisha was hit by a super cyclone (超级飓风). “Our homes and standing crops were destroyed. There was no food or clothing for days,” 52-year-old Charulata Biswal, a volunteer forest protector, told Mongabay-India. “But we realized it was because of the surviving forest that many people in Gundalba, a small village, were still alive. We promised we would protect the forest in return and restore the biodiversity.”
Groups of women patrol the forest at least twice a day. As they walk among the trees, they blow their whistles and bang wooden sticks against tree trunks. “We beat our sticks and patrol in groups of 10,” Biswal said. “We spread out inside the forest and blow whistles. Anyone with the intention to harm the local biodiversity will flee on hearing our whistle and the ringing of our sticks on tree trunks.”
In 2001, over 70 women from Gundalba came together to form the Women’s Forest Protection Committee. Apart from their daily patrols, they also approached neighboring villages that also depend on the forest for firewood about setting up a system for sustainability (可持续性). For example, every village is allowed to gather firewood from the forest on a set day of the month, usually a few days after another settlement has finished the gathering process.
Over the years, they have caught several people cutting trees illegally in the forest. Asked if they have ever been afraid of patrolling the large forest, they said no. “The forest is an extension of our home,” Biswal said. “Won’t it hurt to see your children suffer This is how a mother feels and we are doing something that comes to us naturally.”
Thanks to the women’s efforts, the forest gradually came back to life. Birds started nesting in trees again and the animals returned.
41. What does the author intend to do in paragraph 2
A. To introduce the natural disaster in India.
B. To show what people in Gundalba did to survive.
C. To explain why the women decided to patrol the forest.
D. To describe the poor situation in eastern state of Odisha.
42. Why do the women whistle and bang the sticks
A. To attract more birds and animals.
B. To relax themselves during their work.
C. To make themselves brave to go among the forest.
D. To warn people meaning to damage the forest to leave.
43. What did the Committee do after its foundation
A. They gathered firewood from other forests.
B. They reduced the time for patrolling the forest.
C. They adopted environment-friendly woodcutting methods.
D. They stopped neighboring villages from cutting their trees.

C
In the contemporary era, the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a game-changing force, significantly reshaping the global job market. AI, with its capabilities like machine learning, natural language processing, and computer vision, revolutionizes industries and transforms work and employment.
One of the most obvious impacts of AI on the job market is the automation of routine tasks. In manufacturing, AI-controlled robotic arms can assemble car parts faster and more precisely than human workers. In the financial sector, AI algorithms analyze huge amounts of data, detect fraud, and make investment decisions, reducing the need for manual data analysis jobs. This automation trend causes job displacement, worrying workers in routine — based occupations.
However, AI also creates new job opportunities, mainly in emerging high — tech fields. There is a growing demand for AI specialists, such as machine learning engineers, data scientists, and AI ethicists (伦理学家). Machine learning engineers develop and train AI models, data scientists handle data for AI systems, and AI ethicists deal with ethical issues in AI. These jobs require specialized skills and often advanced degrees.
Moreover, AI spurs the transformation of existing jobs. In healthcare, doctors and nurses now work with AI-enabled diagnostic tools that analyze medical images to help detect diseases early. Healthcare professionals need to adapt and learn to work with AI, enhancing their skills to use AI-provided results. Workers in various industries must upskill or reskill to stay relevant.
Nevertheless, the transition to an AI-driven job market has challenges. The skills gap is a major issue, as the demand for AI-related skills far exceeds the supply. Educational institutions struggle to keep up, resulting in a shortage of trained professionals. This gap not only hinders the growth of AI-related industries but also makes it hard for many workers to get new jobs. Additionally, there are concerns that AI may exacerbate income inequality if only a few can access high — paying AI jobs while many in routine jobs face displacement.
As we move forward in the AI era, policymakers, educational institutions, and businesses should collaborate. Policymakers should make strategies for AI development and address employment impacts. Educational institutions need to update curricula with AI-related courses, and businesses should invest in training their workforce. By working together, we can ensure that AI benefits the job market, creating a harmonious coexistence of humans and AI at work.
46. What is the main idea of the passage
A. AI is only causing job displacement in the market.
B. AI is bringing both opportunities and challenges to the job market.
C. The skills gap is the only problem AI brings to the job market.
D. AI-related jobs are only suitable for those with advanced degrees.
47. Which of the following is an example of job displacement due to AI
A. The creation of new jobs for AI ethicists.
B. Robotic arms assembling car parts instead of human workers.
C. Doctors using AI-enabled diagnostic tools.
D. The demand for machine learning engineers.
48. What new job opportunities does AI create
A. Jobs in traditional manufacturing industries.
B. Jobs for workers with only basic education.
C. Jobs like machine learning engineers and AI ethicists.
D. Jobs that require no specialized skills.
49. What does the transformation of existing jobs due to AI imply
A. Workers don’t need to learn new skills. B. Workers can only wait for new job opportunities.
C. Workers must upskill or reskill to adapt. D. Existing jobs will disappear completely.
50. Why is the skills gap a significant problem
A. It leads to more job creation in the short term.
B. It helps reduce income inequality.
C. It makes it difficult for workers to access new job opportunities.
D. It promotes the rapid development of AI-related industries.
【答案】46. B 47. B 48. C 49. C 50. C

You are a member in a full-time school called “life”. Each day here you will have the opportunity to learn lessons. You may like the lessons or hate them, but you have designed them as part of your curriculum.
Why are you here What is your purpose Humans have sought to discover the meaning of life for a very long time. What we and our ancestors have to overlook is that there is no one answer. The meaning of life is different for every individual.
Each person has his own purpose and distinct path, unique and separate from anyone else’s. As you are traveling your life path, you will be presented with numerous lessons you will need to learn in order to achieve that purpose. The lessons you are presented with are specific to you; learning these lessons is the key to discovering and achieving the meaning of your own life.
As you are traveling through your lifetime, you may meet challenging lessons that others don’t have to face, while others spend years struggling with challenges that you don’t need to deal with. You may never know why you are blessed with a wonderful marriage, while your friends suffer painful divorces, just as you cannot be sure why you struggle financially while your peers enjoy abundance. The only thing you can count on is that you will be presented with all the lessons that you specifically need to learn.
The challenge, therefore, is to arrange yourself with your own unique path by learning individual lessons. This is one of the most difficult challenges you will face in your lifetime, as sometimes your path will be different from others. But don’t compare your path with that of people around you and focus on the differences between their lessons and yours. You need to remember that you will only face lessons that you can learn and are specific to your own growth.
Our sense of fairness is the expectation of equality. Life is not, in fact, fair, and you may indeed have a more difficult life path than others around you, deserved or not. Everyone’s circumstances are unique, and everyone needs to handle his or her own circumstances differently.
51. According to the passage how can the meaning of your life be realized
A. Gathering different opinions from others
B. Taking the distinct path from others.
C. Learning the lessons presented to you.
D. Doing the different things from others.
52. From the passage we can conclude .
A. everyone has his own track to follow
B. unexpected things usually happen to the peers
C. a painful divorce must lie in financial problems
D. a wealthy man must have a wonderful marriage
53. In your lifetime, the lessons you are faced with .
A. are beyond your power
B. keep you from growth
C. limit your development
D. help you with your success
54. Which of the following is TRUE
A. All things should be equal and justice to everybody.
B. You should learn to deal with specific problems differently from others.
C. One has to fix his mind on unfairness of circumstances.
D. You can complain life is unfair whenever possible.
55. Life is called a full–time school, because .
A. it is full of all lessons to learn
B. you have plenty of time to learn lessons
C. you meet with specific lessons every day
D. you can learn many things helpful to you
【答案】51. C 52. A 53. D 54. B 55. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇议论文,每个人的生活都不一样,所面临的人生难题也不一样。只有当我们学会了这些人生教训,我们才可以理解生活的意义,取得成功。
【51题详解】

The Wonders of Urban Gardening
Urban gardening has been on the rise in recent years, and it’s not just a passing trend. In the concrete jungles of big cities, people are discovering the joy and benefits of growing their own plants right in their backyards, roofs, or even small balconies.
Take my neighbor Mr. Smith, for example. He used to have a small, barren patch of land in his backyard. A couple of years ago, he decided to turn it into a mini-garden. He started with some easy-to-grow vegetables like tomatoes and cucumbers. At first, it was a bit of a struggle. The soil wasn’t in the best condition, and he had to learn how to deal with pests without using harmful chemicals. But as time went by, his garden flourished. Now, his backyard is a vibrant oasis filled with green leaves and colorful blossoms. He not only has fresh, organic produce for his family but also shares the surplus with neighbors.
Urban gardening also has a significant environmental impact. Plants absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen, improving the air quality in the city. Gardens can help reduce the urban heat island effect by providing shade and evaporative cooling. Additionally, by growing their own food, people can cut down on the carbon emissions associated with transporting food from farms to cities.
For many city dwellers, urban gardening is also a great way to relieve stress. Spending time in the garden, digging in the soil, and watching plants grow can be incredibly therapeutic. It allows people to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of city life and connect with nature. Moreover, it can be a fun family activity. Children can learn about where food comes from, the life cycle of plants, and the importance of taking care of the environment.
However, urban gardening does face some challenges. Space is often limited, so gardeners need to be creative in using vertical gardening techniques or small-scale containers. Also, dealing with limited sunlight in some urban areas and ensuring proper water supply can be tricky. But with a bit of knowledge and perseverance, these obstacles can be overcome.
56. How did Mr. Smith’s backyard change (10 words)
______________________________________________________________________________
57. What environmental benefits does urban gardening bring (List two, 15 words)
______________________________________________________________________________
58. Why is urban gardening good for relieving stress (10 words)

59. What does the underlined word “barren” mean (One word)
______________________________________________________________________________
60. If you lived in a city, would you like to try urban gardening Why (No more than 20 words)
______________________________________________________________________________
【答案】56. It turns into a vibrant garden.
57. It improves urban air quality; it reduces urban heat.
58. Because it’s therapeutic and connects people with nature.
59. Infertile/Unproductive.
60. Yes, for fresh, organic food and stress relief.

【59题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段中画线词的下文“At first, it was a bit of a struggle. The soil wasn’t in the best condition (起初,这并非易事。土壤状况并不理想)”可知,史密斯先生后院的土壤状况不好,土地一开始是贫瘠的,画线词意为“贫瘠的”。故答案为:Infertile/Unproductive.
【60题详解】
开放性试题。本题结合文章内容和生活实际言之有理即可。例如,根据第二段中“He not only has fresh, organic produce for his family but also shares the surplus with neighbors. (他不仅能为家人提供新鲜有机的农产品,还能将富余的收成与邻居分享)”和第四段中“For many city dwellers, urban gardening is also a great way to relieve stress. (对许多城市居民来说,都市园艺也是缓解压力的绝佳方式)”可知,城市园艺可以让人收获新鲜、有机的食物,并且缓解压力,值得尝试。故答案为:Yes, for fresh, organic food and stress relief.

A group of 75 female volunteers from India’s Odisha state has spent every day of the last 20 years patrolling (巡逻) a 75-hectare forest to protect it from illegal woodcutters.
In 1999, the eastern state of Odisha was hit by a super cyclone (超级飓风). “Our homes and standing crops were destroyed. There was no food or clothing for days,” 52-year-old Charulata Biswal, a volunteer forest protector, told Mongabay-India. “But we realized it was because of the surviving forest that many people in Gundalba, a small village, were still alive. We promised we would protect the forest in return and restore the biodiversity.”
Groups of women patrol the forest at least twice a day. As they walk among the trees, they blow their whistles and bang wooden sticks against tree trunks. “We beat our sticks and patrol in groups of 10,” Biswal said. “We spread out inside the forest and blow whistles. Anyone with the intention to harm the local biodiversity will flee on hearing our whistle and the ringing of our sticks on tree trunks.”
In 2001, over 70 women from Gundalba came together to form the Women’s Forest Protection Committee. Apart from their daily patrols, they also approached neighboring villages that also depend on the forest for firewood about setting up a system for sustainability (可持续性). For example, every village is allowed to gather firewood from the forest on a set day of the month, usually a few days after another settlement has finished the gathering process.
Over the years, they have caught several people cutting trees illegally in the forest. Asked if they have ever been afraid of patrolling the large forest, they said no. “The forest is an extension of our home,” Biswal said. “Won’t it hurt to see your children suffer This is how a mother feels and we are doing something that comes to us naturally.”
Thanks to the women’s efforts, the forest gradually came back to life. Birds started nesting in trees again and the animals returned.
41. What does the author intend to do in paragraph 2
A. To introduce the natural disaster in India.
B. To show what people in Gundalba did to survive.
C. To explain why the women decided to patrol the forest.
D. To describe the poor situation in eastern state of Odisha.
42. Why do the women whistle and bang the sticks
A. To attract more birds and animals.
B. To relax themselves during their work.
C. To make themselves brave to go among the forest.
D. To warn people meaning to damage the forest to leave.
43. What did the Committee do after its foundation
A. They gathered firewood from other forests.
B. They reduced the time for patrolling the forest.
C They adopted environment-friendly woodcutting methods.
D. They stopped neighboring villages from cutting their trees.
44. How does Charulata Biswal feel about the forest
A. It is like her family. B. It will take long to recover.
C. It has lost some natural functions. D. It suffers a lot from illegal cutting.
45. What does the last paragraph show
A. The forest will be everlasting. B. The women’s efforts paid off.
C. More animals are raised in Odisha. D. No birds lived in the forest in the past.

In the contemporary era, the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a game-changing force, significantly reshaping the global job market. AI, with its capabilities like machine learning, natural language processing, and computer vision, revolutionizes industries and transforms work and employment.
One of the most obvious impacts of AI on the job market is the automation of routine tasks. In manufacturing, AI-controlled robotic arms can assemble car parts faster and more precisely than human workers. In the financial sector, AI algorithms analyze huge amounts of data, detect fraud, and make investment decisions, reducing the need for manual data analysis jobs. This automation trend causes job displacement, worrying workers in routine — based occupations.
However, AI also creates new job opportunities, mainly in emerging high — tech fields. There is a growing demand for AI specialists, such as machine learning engineers, data scientists, and AI ethicists (伦理学家). Machine learning engineers develop and train AI models, data scientists handle data for AI systems, and AI ethicists deal with ethical issues in AI. These jobs require specialized skills and often advanced degrees.
Moreover, AI spurs the transformation of existing jobs. In healthcare, doctors and nurses now work with AI-enabled diagnostic tools that analyze medical images to help detect diseases early. Healthcare professionals need to adapt and learn to work with AI, enhancing their skills to use AI-provided results. Workers in various industries must upskill or reskill to stay relevant.
Nevertheless, the transition to an AI-driven job market has challenges. The skills gap is a major issue, as the demand for AI-related skills far exceeds the supply. Educational institutions struggle to keep up, resulting in a shortage of trained professionals. This gap not only hinders the growth of AI-related industries but also makes it hard for many workers to get new jobs. Additionally, there are concerns that AI may exacerbate income inequality if only a few can access high — paying AI jobs while many in routine jobs face displacement.
As we move forward in the AI era, policymakers, educational institutions, and businesses should collaborate. Policymakers should make strategies for AI development and address employment impacts. Educational institutions need to update curricula with AI-related courses, and businesses should invest in training their workforce. By working together, we can ensure that AI benefits the job market, creating a harmonious coexistence of humans and AI at work.
46. What is the main idea of the passage
A. AI is only causing job displacement in the market.
B. AI is bringing both opportunities and challenges to the job market.
C. The skills gap is the only problem AI brings to the job market.
D. AI-related jobs are only suitable for those with advanced degrees.
47. Which of the following is an example of job displacement due to AI
A. The creation of new jobs for AI ethicists.
B. Robotic arms assembling car parts instead of human workers.
C. Doctors using AI-enabled diagnostic tools.
D. The demand for machine learning engineers.
48. What new job opportunities does AI create
A Jobs in traditional manufacturing industries.
B. Jobs for workers with only basic education.
C. Jobs like machine learning engineers and AI ethicists.
D. Jobs that require no specialized skills.
49. What does the transformation of existing jobs due to AI imply
A. Workers don’t need to learn new skills. B. Workers can only wait for new job opportunities.
C. Workers must upskill or reskill to adapt. D. Existing jobs will disappear completely.
50. Why is the skills gap a significant problem
A. It leads to more job creation in the short term.
B. It helps reduce income inequality.
C. It makes it difficult for workers to access new job opportunities.
D. It promotes the rapid development of AI-related industries.

You are a member in a full-time school called “life”. Each day here you will have the opportunity to learn lessons. You may like the lessons or hate them, but you have designed them as part of your curriculum.
Why are you here What is your purpose Humans have sought to discover the meaning of life for a very long time. What we and our ancestors have to overlook is that there is no one answer. The meaning of life is different for every individual.
Each person has his own purpose and distinct path, unique and separate from anyone else’s. As you are traveling your life path, you will be presented with numerous lessons you will need to learn in order to achieve that purpose. The lessons you are presented with are specific to you; learning these lessons is the key to discovering and achieving the meaning of your own life.
As you are traveling through your lifetime, you may meet challenging lessons that others don’t have to face, while others spend years struggling with challenges that you don’t need to deal with. You may never know why you are blessed with a wonderful marriage, while your friends suffer painful divorces, just as you cannot be sure why you struggle financially while your peers enjoy abundance. The only thing you can count on is that you will be presented with all the lessons that you specifically need to learn.
The challenge, therefore, is to arrange yourself with your own unique path by learning individual lessons. This is one of the most difficult challenges you will face in your lifetime, as sometimes your path will be different from others. But don’t compare your path with that of people around you and focus on the differences between their lessons and yours. You need to remember that you will only face lessons that you can learn and are specific to your own growth.
Our sense of fairness is the expectation of equality. Life is not, in fact, fair, and you may indeed have a more difficult life path than others around you, deserved or not. Everyone’s circumstances are unique, and everyone needs to handle his or her own circumstances differently.
51. According to the passage, how can the meaning of your life be realized

The Wonders of Urban Gardening
Urban gardening has been on the rise in recent years, and it’s not just a passing trend. In the concrete jungles of big cities, people are discovering the joy and benefits of growing their own plants right in their backyards, roofs, or even small balconies.
Take my neighbor, Mr. Smith, for example. He used to have a small, barren patch of land in his backyard. A couple of years ago, he decided to turn it into a mini-garden. He started with some easy-to-grow vegetables like tomatoes and cucumbers. At first, it was a bit of a struggle. The soil wasn’t in the best condition, and he had to learn how to deal with pests without using harmful chemicals. But as time went by, his garden flourished. Now, his backyard is a vibrant oasis filled with green leaves and colorful blossoms. He not only has fresh, organic produce for his family but also shares the surplus with neighbors.
Urban gardening also has a significant environmental impact. Plants absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen, improving the air quality in the city. Gardens can help reduce the urban heat island effect by providing shade and evaporative cooling. Additionally, by growing their own food, people can cut down on the carbon emissions associated with transporting food from farms to cities.
For many city dwellers, urban gardening is also a great way to relieve stress. Spending time in the garden, digging in the soil, and watching plants grow can be incredibly therapeutic. It allows people to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of city life and connect with nature. Moreover, it can be a fun family activity. Children can learn about where food comes from, the life cycle of plants, and the importance of taking care of the environment.
However, urban gardening does face some challenges. Space is often limited, so gardeners need to be creative in using vertical gardening techniques or small-scale containers. Also, dealing with limited sunlight in some urban areas and ensuring proper water supply can be tricky. But with a bit of knowledge and perseverance, these obstacles can be overcome.
