NDS XL Air Fryer
Wish you could fit a double air fryer (空气炸锅) in your kitchen, but running low on worktop space Introducing the NDS (Ninja Double Stack) XL Air Fryer.
This double air fryer towers above the rest, with 2 vertical stacked drawers (纵向堆叠抽屉) that do not need as much space on your worktop as traditional side-by-side 2-drawer air fryers. Now — you can mix and match 6 cooking functions, cooking times and temperatures across 2 individually-controlled drawers, and have all your food ready at the same time — even in smaller kitchen spaces!
Already rated the full five stars by users, the air frying device is 30% slimmer compared to other Air Fryer. It might look small in size, but it can be really useful when it comes to mealtime. It can cook four layers of food — thanks to the two large drawers.
As most of the air fryers, it also has six incredible functions to help cook food exactly as you like it — air fry, crisp, roast, bake, reheat, and dehydrate (脱水)— making it one of the most diverse appliances (电器) in your kitchen.
Rally, one five star rater said, “this is perfect if you’re short of worktop space. It replaces my 9-in-1 air fryer and has the same quality.”
Rose described it as the “best in the market,” and added, “love absolutely everything about this model. I’m pleased I waited for the double stack as it takes up less space. I’d highly recommend it.”

Each morning at 6 o’clock, even on weekends, Kamaljeet Singh, 57, is up and out of the house. He starts by spending three hours helping distribute food to nearly two dozen drop-off locations across Delhi, India, and then checks on the many facilities run by the volunteer organization he leads with his brother, Premjit. The organization, Veerji Ka Dera, was founded in 1989 by their father, Trilokchan Singh.
Trilokchan and his helpers began supporting one of India’s most underserved groups: the migrant workers who came to Delhi from rural areas. It started with a free breakfast, and eventually the group was also providing basic first aid for minor, often job-related, injuries. During this time, Trilokchan would begin his days as early as 4 o’clock in the morning, then go to his paid job 5 hours later, and end each day by volunteering in the evenings.
After his death, Kamaljeet and Premjit, inspired by their father’s lifetime of service, took over the organization. “We are continuing his legacy of helping the poorest of the poor,” says Premjit, 61, “Our aim is that no one goes hungry and uncared for in Delhi.”
Veerji Ka Dera now feeds about 2,500 daily wage workers and homeless people a day, in addition to providing basic medical care for as many as 500 people. The group operates a main building in west Delhi, several rented farms - growing crops such as wheat, mustard, millet and rice - an old-age home and clinics. It even operates an animal shelter housing a few hundred rescued cows and buffalo.
It’s all made possible by the roughly 250 families who volunteer their time to cook, drive, nurse, farm and clean. Kamaljeet and his wife, Raminder, juggle their volunteer work with managing their security-camera installation (设备) company, and they get help from their son and daughter-in-law, too. His other adult children, who now live abroad, have volunteered in the past, as have Premjit’s kids.
Despite the size and scope of the organization, the brothers claim it causes them no stress. Kamaljeet says spending time with his brother and the volunteers especially - young people- is “the best”.
4. What can we learn about Kamaljeet from Paragraph 1
A. He routinely helps those in need.
B. He is fond of getting up early.
C. He sets up Veerji Ka Dera.
D. He can have a rest on weekends.

B. To compare his work with his sons’.
C. To show his influence on his sons.
D. To describe his tough living conditions.
6. What does the underlined word “juggle” mean in Paragraph 5
A. Combine. B. Share. C. Connect. D. Balance.
7. What is the text mainly about
A. A caring family tradition.
B. A worthy organization.
C. A mysterious tale.
D. A meaningful experience.

We all know fresh is best when it comes to food. However, most produce at the store went through weeks of travel and covered hundreds of miles before reaching the table. While farmer’s markets are a solid choice to reduce the journey, Babylon Micro-Farm (BMF) shortens it even more.
BMF is an indoor garden system. It can be set up for a family. Additionally, it could serve a larger audience such as a hospital, restaurant or school. The innovative design requires little effort to achieve a reliable weekly supply of fresh greens.
Specifically, it’s a farm that relies on new technology. By connecting through the Cloud, BMF is remotely monitored. Also, there is a convenient app that provides growing data in real time. Because the system is automated, it significantly reduces the amount of water needed to grow plants. Rather than watering rows of soil, the system provides just the right amount to each plant. After harvest, users simply replace the plants with a new pre-seeded pod (容器) to get the next growth cycle started.
Moreover, having a system in the same building where it’s eaten means zero emissions (排放) from transporting plants from soil to salad. In addition, there’s no need for pesticides and other chemicals that pollute traditional farms and the surrounding environment.
BMF employees live out sustainability in their everyday lives. About half of them walk or bike to work. Inside the office, they encourage recycling and waste reduction by limiting garbage cans and avoiding single-use plastic. “We are passionate about reducing waste, carbon and chemicals in our environment,” said a BMF employee.
8. What can be learned about BMF from paragraph 1
A. It guarantees the variety of food. B. It requires day-to-day care.
C. It cuts the farm-to-table distance. D. It relies on farmer’s markets.
9. What information does the convenient app offer
A. Real-time weather changes. B. Current condition of the plants.
C. Chemical pollutants in the soil. D. Availability of pre-seeded pods.
10. What can be concluded about BMF employees
A. They have a great passion for sports.
B. They are devoted to community service.
C. They are fond of sharing daily experiences.
D. They have a strong environmental awareness.
11. What does the text mainly talk about
A. BMF’s major strengths. B. BMF’s general management.
C. BMF’s global influence. D. BMF’s technical standards.
D
Placed before you are two pots. Each contains 100 balls. You are given a clear description of the first pot’s contents, in which there are 50 red balls and 50 black balls. The economist running the experiment is tight-lipped about the second, saying only that there are 100 balls divided between red and black in some percentage. Then you are offered a choice. Pick a red ball from a pot and you will get a million dollars. Which pot would you like to pull from Now try again, but select a black ball. Which pot this time Most people choose the first pot both times, despite such a choice implying that there are both more and fewer red balls than in the second pot.
This fact is known as the Ellsberg paradox after Daniel Ellsberg, who called the behaviour hate uncertainty. It reveals a deeper problem facing the world as it struggles with climate change.
Ignorance of the future carries a cost today: uncertainty makes risks uninsurable, or at the very least expensive. The less insurers know about risks, the more capital they need to protect their balance-sheets against possible losses.
Insurance is a tool of climate adaptation. Indeed, insurance calculators have as big a role to play as activists in the fight against climate change. Without insurance, those whose homes burn in a wildfire or are destroyed by a flood will lose everything. Insurance can also be a motive for corrective action. Higher insurance expenses, which accurately reflect risk, stimulate people to adapt sooner, whether by discouraging building in risky areas or encouraging people to move away from high fire risk land. If prices are wrong, society will be more hurt by a hotter world than otherwise would be the case. Politicians considering financial aid for home insurance on flood plains ought to note.
12. The experiment of the two pots shows that ___________.
A. instinct sometimes works better than reasoning B. most people prefer predictability to uncertainty
C. people are willing to take risks to get a reward D. it is impossible to always make the right decision
13. What’s the functions of insurance
A. It raises people’s awareness of climate change. B. It prevents people from taking risks.
C. It motivates people to adapt to risky environment. D. It helps climate refugees to relocate.
14. What’s author’s attitude towards financial aids for home insurance
A. Opposing B. Supportive C. Uncertain D. Ambiguous
15. Which of the following could be the best title for the text
A. Prevention is better than remedy B. Improving forecast can reduce uncertainty
C. Uncertainty pushes up the price of insurance D. Speedy action is urgently needed for climate change

Emily was a shy girl who often preferred the comfort of her own company. She found it challenging to express herself and lacked confidence in her abilities. However, her best friend Ada always believed in her and encouraged her to step out of her comfort zone.
One day, as Emily sat in her art class, her teacher, Mrs. Anderson, announced an upcoming art competition. The competition showcased the talents of students from various schools in the city. The room buzzed with excitement. Her mind flashed back to her bedroom where impressive art work was displayed on the walls, each piece seemingly more attractive than the last. Emily’s heart skipped a beat at the thought of participating, but her shyness held her back. Self-doubt crept in, whispering that her work wouldn’t measure up to the talent surrounding her. Emily wondered if she had made a mistake by even considering entering.
Ada, noticing Emily’s excitement and fear, whispered, “Emily, you should totally enter the competition! Your art is fantastic, and this could be a great opportunity for you to showcase your talent.”
Emily hesitated for a moment contemplating (思忖) Ada’s words. A gentle breeze wafted through the open windows, carrying the distant sounds of laughter and chatter from outside. Emily closed her eyes, trying to calm her racing thoughts. She reminded herself of the countless hours she had spent honing (磨炼) her craft, the late nights and early mornings dedicated to perfecting her technique. She had poured her heart and soul into her art, and this competition was a chance to showcase her passion to a wider audience.
With a deep breath, she finally gathered the courage to approach Mrs. Anderson after class. “Mrs. Anderson, I’m interested in participating in the art design competition,” Emily said, her voice slightly trembling. Mrs. Anderson smiled warmly, recognizing Emily’s potential. “That’s wonderful, Emily! I think it’s about time you should share your incredible talent with the world. I’ll provide you with all the guidance and support you need.”
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。
Over the following weeks, Emily dedicated herself to creating her masterpiece.

【46题答案】
【答案】Possible version 1:
Dear Ryan,
I am Li Hua from Grade 2, a participant in the last continuation writing competition. Having scored only 14 for my continuation writing, I felt it unfair, so I am writing to you to state my reasons.
For my writing, I felt it totally meets the requirements put forward in the contest. To begin with, the structure of my composition is definitely clear and the plot develops reasonably, no prolixity at all. Additionally, the words and sentences used are colorful, without repeatedly using the same word. I even wrote some compound sentences to update my writing, such as attributive clause, the emphatic pattern, inverted sentence and so on. Finally, a well-known saying is used to end my article, which I think is a perfect highlight of the passage.
In a word, with the merits mentioned above, I wonder why I got such a low score. If it is convenient for you, please give me an explanation.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
Possible version 2:
Dear Ryan,
I am Li Hua from Grade 2, a participant in the last continuation writing competition. I received a score of 14 out of 25, and I believe this score is unreasonably low.
Firstly, I carefully followed the guidelines and requirements of the competition. I made sure to address the given topic and structure my writing appropriately. Secondly, I also paid attention to grammar, vocabulary, and coherence in my composition. Therefore, I believe my writing should have been evaluated more favorably.
In conclusion, I feel that my score of 14 does not accurately represent my writing abilities. I kindly request you to reconsider my score and provide me with a fair evaluation.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
