You might wander leisurely into the Kinder Shop if you happened to be in Carlisle, a city that sits in the county of Cumbria in northwest England. Its windows displayed a range of household items like candles, lamps and chairs. But this shop differs from other shops. Each item in the shop was generously donated by local businesses and priced in terms of volunteer hours that the purchaser would contribute to nearby charities. The suggested number of hours required to purchase each item was clearly displayed on its price tag,
Calling itself the Kinder Shop, this store has transformed the concept of kindness into a practical project that genuinely impacts the lives of locals. The nature of the store lies in its devotion to assisting the county's charitable organizations and community groups, which rely on the invaluable work of volunteers to fulfill their vital missions.
The first customer Sara Talebaoui paid for her purchases, including a table and several chairs set for her garden, by volunteering for a total of 24 hours for several local charities. “This is indeed my lucky day. . I had had no knowledge of this event before and couldn't believe it when I was informed that all these lovely things are being offered in a special way, ” Sara told Cumbria Crack. “I am a bit of a history fan, so working for English Heritage is absolutely a golden opportunity for me. ”
The Kinder Shop has opened doors for people to participate in charitable activities, enabling them to make a practical impact on their community. Bramble House Hair Salon in the nearby town of Keswick was inspired to host a “pay-with-kindness” day. During the activity, individuals who spent 15 minutes collecting trash in the town center received a free haircut as a gesture of appreciation.
“What we thought would be a one-off (一次的) event looks as if it could be the start of something really special,” said Des Moore, CEO of the Cumberland Building Society, “We believe we can take the idea of kindness from Cumbria and spread it all around the UK. ”
24. Which may set the Kinder Shop apart from other stores
A. The various payment methods. B. Long hours of shopping service.
C. A non-monetary exchange system. D. Generous discounts for volunteers.
25. What is the main purpose of the Kinder Shop

A new study published in the journal Science Advances finds that AI enhances creativity by increasing the novelty (新奇性) of story ideas as well as the “usefulness” of stories—their ability to engage the target audience and potential for publication. It finds that AI “professionalizes” stories, making them more enjoyable, more likely to have plot twists; better written and less boring.
The researchers assigned the 300 study participants to three groups: The first group was allowed no AI help, the second group could use ChatGPT to provide a single three-sentence starting idea, and writers in the third group could choose from up to five AI-generated ideas for their inspiration.
They then organized 600 people to judge how good the stories were, assessing them for novelty—whether the stories did something new or unexpected—and “usefulness”—how appropriate they were for the target audience, and whether the ideas could be developed and potentially published.
They found that writers with the most access to AI experienced the greatest gains in their creativity, their stories scoring 9% higher for novelty compared with stories written without AI. Writers who used up to five AI-generated ideas also scored higher for emotional characteristics, producing stories that were better written, more enjoyable, less boring and funnier.
The researchers evaluated the writers creativity using a Divergent Association Task (DAT) and found that more creative writers—those with the highest DAT scores—benefited least from generative AI ideas. On the contrary, less creative writers saw a greater increase in creativity.
The researchers also calculated how similar the stories were to each other. They found a10. 7% increase in similarity between writers whose stories used one generative AI-idea, compared with the group that didn't use AI.
Anil Doshi, Assistant Professor at the UCL School of Management said, “While these results point to an increase in individual creativity, there is a risk of losing collective novelty. If the publishing industry were to embrace more generative AI-inspired stories, our findings suggest that the stories would become less unique and more similar to each other. ”
28. What is the first paragraph mainly about as for using AI to help write stories
A. Its limitation. B. Its background. C. Its principles. D. Its advantages.
29. How did the participants in the first group create their stories
A. By turning to AI for the beginning. B. By depending on their own imagination.
C. By telling AI to give them some new ideas. D. By asking some professionals in real life for help.
30. Why was the Divergent Association Task (DAT) used
A. To figure out how creative the writers were. B. To find out how logical the writers' stories were.
C. To figure out how knowledgeable the writers were. D. To find out how appealing the writers' stories were.
31. What can we infer from the last paragraph
A. AI-inspired stories can ruin individual creativity.
B. AI-inspired stories may benefit collective novelty.
C. AI-inspired stories can be more varied and diverse.
D. AI-inspired stories may have a likeness to each other.
D
The South-North Water Diversion Project has in the past decade diverted (使转向) 76. 7 billion cubic meters of water from the Yangtze River basin to the country's drought-prone (易干旱的) northern regions, benefiting 185 million people, according to the Ministry of Water Resources.
Initiated in the 1950s, the water diversion project is composed of three routes. The volume of diverted water is over 5, 000 times the water in the well-known West Lake in Zhejiang provincial capital, Hangzhou, which has a surface area of more than 6 square kilometers, and is more than 19 times the annual average water consumption in Beijing.
After sustainable expansion of areas covered by the project, it now supplies water to 45medium and large-sized cities, Wang Daoxi, vice-minister of water resources, said on Thursday at a news conference marking the 10th anniversary of the operation of the project's middle route. The news conference was organized by the State Council Information Office.
“The project's positive influence has progressively extended beyond medium and large cities to rural areas, leading to an increasing number of individuals getting benefits from it year after another, ” he said.
The Yongding River, which dried up in 1996, for example, witnessed continuous water flow along its 865-kilometer course in August 2021. Over the last three years, the mother river of Beijing has maintained a year-round flow along its entire length.
The vice-minister stressed that by capitalizing on the abundance of water resources in the south, the project has successfully cultivated economic collaboration between the northern and southern regions, driving development in the north.
Without water from the south, those key economic development zones, major grain-producing areas and energy bases in the north would not have been able to produce that large amount of commodities, grains and energy and then transport them to regions all across the country, he noted. The water diverted by the project has supported a GDP growth of over16 trillion yuan ($2. 2 trillion) in the northern region, he added.
As the most important and well-known of the three routes—due to its role in bringing water to Beijing— the first phase (阶段) of the middle route takes water from the Danjiangkou Reservoir, which spans Hubei and Henan provinces, and also benefits Henan and Hebei provinces and Tianjin along its route.
The first phase of the eastern route, which serves Jiangsu and Shandong provinces, began operation in November 2013. The western route remains in the planning stage.
32. Why is the West Lake spoken of in the second paragraph
A. To show it is one of the most famous scenic spots worldwide.
B. To show how much water has been diverted by the project.
C. To show the annual average water consumption in Beijing.
D. To show how large the surface area of the lake is.
33. Which can replace the underlined phrase “capitalizing on” in paragraph 6
A. Taking advantage of. B. Throwing light on.
C. Figuring out. D. Appealing to.
34. Which region might be unrelated to the first phase of the middle route
A. Henan. B. Tianjin. C. Shandong. D. Hubei.
35. Which can serve as the best title for the news report
A. Northern regions benefit from water diversion project
B. South-North Water Diversion Project consists of three routes
C. Sustainable expansion of areas covered by water diversion project
D. First phase of middle route takes water from Danjiangkou Reservoir

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Should we focus on our goal, or on the process
What happened to Brenda Martinez, a US Olympic runner, may provide us with the answer. She lost her balance in the 800-meter run and failed to qualify for the Olympics. 36 . “I just quickly let go of what happened in the 800m and got back to my routine, focusing on all the little things I could do that would give me the best chance of running well later in the week, ” she told New York Magazine. She said it was this mindset that led to her winning third place in the 1, 500-meter race about a week later to qualify for the Olympics. Instead of attaching herself to the goal of making the Olympic team, she concentrated on the process.
37 . Researchers from Harvard, the University of Pennsylvania and Northwestern found that overemphasizing goals based on measurable outcomes often leads to risk-taking, unethical (不道德的) behavior and reduced motivation. Their results were published in a Harvard Business School report titled Goals Gone Wild: The Systematic Side Effects of Over-Prescribing Goal Setting.
When you become overly focused on achieving the goal, you may lose sight of your original purpose for accomplishing the goal in the first place. 38 . For example, some marathon runners experience what's called the “post-race blues”. In addition, achieving your goal may cause you to drop the good habits that got you there in the first place. Dieters often experience this in what's called “yo-yo dieting (体重循环) ” when they drop down to a desired weight. 39 .
“After you set a goal, it's best to shift your focus from the goal itself to the process that gives you the best chance of achieving it and to judge yourself based on how well you complete that process, ” columnist Brad Stulberg wrote on the website The Cut.
Ultimately, changing your attention from the goal to the process will cause you to achieve little victories on your way to accomplishing long-term goals. Amy Cuddy, a Harvard Business School psychology professor, wrote, “ 40 , regardless of the measurable outcome. ”.
A. There are some problems! if you concentrate on goals
B. They showed that opportunity favored the prepared mind.
C. We can accept that it is not normal to feel down after a failure
D. Instead of focusing on her failure, she prepared to win the next race.
E. But then they gain all the weight back when they begin their bad habits again
F. Focusing on this process leaves you with a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment
G. Another danger is actually completing the goal without setting a plan for what's next

I asked if he preferred people using cards over cash.

W: You get to interact with dogs and cats, while cleaning their cages. You get to give them love and attention, and they will give you far more of both than you give to them.
M: Is there anything you regret about volunteering at a shelter
W: Only that I am unable to adopt every animal. I learned a lot and enjoyed it.
M: Thank you for the advice. I will look into helping a shelter near me.

M: If you're anything like me, then your favorite foods are the sweet ones. But do you know that these foods have a culture as rich as their tastes In ancient civilizations, sweets were special because they were only given to the most important people. Dried fruits and honey were among the first things used to sweeten meals. The sweet foods were not able to spread around until the sugar cane began to be developed in India. Once people found a way to transport sugar easily, they were able to bring it to other countries. Macedonia received this type of sugar in 300 BC, and then over 1, 000 years later, it spread to China. It wasn't until the12th century that its uses spread to Europe. However, even after sugar became well known, it was still too expensive for most people to buy on special occasions. Some of the desserts that we still eat and love today were designed hundreds of years ago. The first recorded recipe of an apple pie was published in 1381. The first cupcake recipe happened nearly 450 years later. Due to the expensive materials needed to cook desserts, most people didn't try to experiment with new techniques. In the present, open trade and access to information and resources has brought us the world's knowledge of desserts. Sweet foods, candies and desserts can be found almost anywhere.

第一节
One possible version:
Dear Sir or Madam,
I am Li Hua, a Chinese boy who paid a visit to a bookstore and bought a book on Chinese historic artefacts the other day. The book was published by your press. I am writing to express my complaint about the mistakes in your book introducing the historic artefacts.
It comes as a shock that some obvious errors in the introduction of Chinese historic artefacts are found in the book. The symbolic significance differs between Chinese and western dragons, but there exist incorrect interpretations of them in a Chinese painting. Worse still, the authors and dates marked on some artefacts are at odds with (与……不相符) the facts, which will definitely ruin the reputation of your press. It is preferable to organize experts to review this book and correct the mistakes in the book. I hope you can take my appeal into consideration.
Looking forward to your favorable reply!
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

Mrs. Johnson, a composed (镇定的) neighbor, followed Alisa without delay, immediately recognizing the urgency of the situation. Upon entering Ella's home, Mrs. Johnson found Ella on the floor, her body seizing up. “Call 911, Alisa, and stay on the line, ”she instructed, her voice steady as she began first aid. Alisa, though scared, managed to relay the emergency to the operator, her mother's lifeline.
Within fifteen minutes, an ambulance got to Ella's house. Ella was rushed to a hospital and she was treated there well. Ella finally came to herself in the hospital. She felt quite comfortable in the hospital. As she regained consciousness, she saw Alisa's tearful face and Mrs. Johnson's comforting presence. Apparently, there was relief on their faces. Ella knew her quick-thinking daughter and reliable neighbor had saved her life, reinforcing the bond of their little families and the people in the community that supported them.
