A
People usually celebrate their traditional festival. The Spring Festival is celebrated not only in China but also in other parts of the world. The traditional festival is the most important to Chinese at home and abroad.
The United Kingdom
Celebrations for Spring Festival in the United Kingdom started in 1980, with the first evening party held in 2002. Every New Year, people get together and have a lot of activities. They sing songs, dance to music, share photos with friends or enjoy films in a cinema.
The United States
Spring Festival is an important time for Chinese living or working in the US. They join in a large evening party to welcome the traditional New Year. It is a good chance for people to feel that they are not alone because they share the same culture.
Australia
On Chinese New Year, many people across Australia come to Sydney’s Chinatown. They enjoy fireworks, lion dances, dragon boat races and many other traditional activities. The celebrations are also a bridge towards better understanding between Chinese and non-Chinese.
Singapore
The family dinner on New Year’s Eve is an important tradition for Chinese. They put traditional food on a table as an act of remembering their past. Then the whole family enjoys their dinner together. They usually have it at home because having it in a restaurant takes away the meaning of the tradition.

Born in the 1970s in Hengyang, Liu Lingli grew up in a working-class family. At age six, a heartfelt meeting with her deaf-mute neighbor, Auntie Wang, who struggled to give her a handmade scarf, planted a seed in her heart: “If only she could speak or write!” This moment inspired Liu to become a student in Nanjing Special Education Normal School at 14, dedicating her life to helping children like Auntie Wang.
In 1991, Liu began teaching at Hengyang Special Education School. Her first class had 14 hearing-loss students, some with intellectual disabilities. Though offered better-paying jobs, she chose this challenging path. “I must walk this road well and far,” she vowed.
Teaching speech required endless patience. She spent hours demonstrating sounds, using learning cards and repetition. Beyond the classroom, she took students to markets and parks to practice communication. “A special education teacher must open doors for these children with both skill and heart,” she said.
Her efforts bore fruit. At the 2023 Asian Para Games, her former student Liu Hanxiang, who once couldn’t speak, performed onstage. “Ms. Liu taught me to speak word by word, even spending weekends coaching me at her home,” Hanxiang recalled. Over 33 years, Liu has helped more than 30 children find their voices.
Her journey wasn’t without personal trials. In 2005, her son was diagnosed (诊断) with congenital (先天性的) hearing loss. Desperate, she nearly quit. But letters from students like Liu Menghan, who wrote, “Don’t give up — your son will have a future too,” gave her bining professional techniques with a mother’s love, she trained her son daily. By age one, he spoke his first words; today, he studies at Xiangtan Institute of Technology.
Now 53, Liu reflects: “Standing on this special education platform for decades is worth every effort.” Her story proves that with persistence and love, even the greatest challenge can be overcome — one word, one child, at a time.
4. What inspired Liu Lingli to work in special education
A. Her own experience of hearing loss.
B. A touching experience with her deaf-mute neighbor.
C. Her working-class family background.
D. The hope to earn money by teaching deaf children.
5. What did Liu Lingli use to help her students learn to speak
A. Hiring private tutors for each student.
B. Being strict and making students repeat a lot.
C. Taking students to markets and parks only.
D. Classroom teaching and communication practice.
6. What can we infer from the paragraph 5
A. Liu’s students helped her restore her strength.
B. Liu Lingli immediately gave up her job
C. Liu’s students didn’t care about her situation.
D. Liu’s son didn’t make progress with her help.
7. Which of the following best describes Liu Lingli
A. Loving and persistent. B. Optimistic and selfish.
C. Unfortunate and desperate. D. Respectful and confident.
C
Artificial intelligence (AI) is showing promise in earthquake prediction, challenging the long-held belief that it is impossible. Researchers at the University of Texas have developed an AI algorithm (算法) that correctly predicted 70% of earthquakes a week in advance during a trial in China and provided accurate strength calculations for the predicted earthquakes.
The research team believes their method succeeded because they stuck with a relatively simple machine learning approach. The AI was provided with a set of statistical features based on the team’s knowledge of earthquake physics, and then instructed to train itself using a five-year database of earth-quake recordings. Once trained, the AI provided its prediction by listening for signs of upcoming earth-quakes within the background rumblings (隆隆声) in the Earth.
This work is clearly a milestone in research for AI-driven earthquake prediction. “You don’t see earthquakes coming,” explains Alexandros, a senior research scientist who leads the Texas Seismological (地震学的) Network Program (Tex Net). “It’s a matter of life and death, and the only thing you can control is how prepared you are. Even with the 70% accuracy, that’s a huge result and could help reduce economic and human losses and has the potential to significantly improve earthquake preparation worldwide.”
While it is unknown whether the same approach will work at other locations, the researchers are confident that their AI algorithm (算法)could produce more accurate predictions if used in areas with reliable earthquake tracking networks. The next step is to test artificial intelligence in Texas, since UT’s Bureau Tex Net has 300 earthquake stations and over six years worth of continuous records, making it an ideal location for these purposes.
Eventually, the authors hope to combine the system with physics-based models. This way could prove especially important where data is poor or lacking. “That may be a long way off, but many advances such as this one, taken together, are what moves science forward,” concludes Scott Tinker, the bureau’s director.
8. How does the AI forecast earthquakes
A. By identifying data from the satellites.
B. By modeling data based on earthquake recordings
C. By analyzing background sounds in the Earth.
D. By monitoring changes in the magnetic (磁) field.
9. What does Alexandros intend to show in paragraph 3
A. The ways to reduce losses in earthquakes.
B. The meaning of developing the AI prediction.
C. The importance of preparing for earthquakes.
D. The limitation of AI in earthquake prediction.
10 What does the follow-up research focus on
A. Conducting tests in different places.
B. Building more earthquake stations in Texas.
C. Applying the AI approach to other fields.
D. Enlarging the database to train the accuracy.
11. Which words can best describe the earthquake-predicting technology
A. Stable but outdated. B. Potential and economical.
C. Effective but costly. D. Pioneering and promising.
D
Why can discounts and deals turn a simple shopping trip into chaos What is it that makes a bargain (优惠) so appealing
A brain-activity study has shown that when we think about money we might spend, brain areas sensitive to pain are activated (激活). When we think about the thing that we want to buy, areas sensitive to pleasure are activated. Our medial prefrontal cortex (前额叶内务侧皮质) evaluates these responses and makes a decision. If it looks like a good deal, we’re more likely to make the purchase and get a lot of dopamine (多巴胺). We get even more dopamine from something that’s unexpected, such as when something is surprisingly cheap. Our brains are keen to reward us for finding bargains and many shops are keen to take advantage of this.
Anchoring is a pricing strategy where we are shown an initial price, and then the current one. Popular items may be positioned next to something much more expensive, or we may see a very high previous price next to the heavily reduced one currently available. Sky-high anchor prices can make unreasonably high actual prices seem fair, and our brains are happy to reward us when we make the purchase. Other strategies include time limits, threatening to prevent us from our dopamine hit if we’re not quick enough, and charm pricing, where we’re much less worried about paying 9.99 than 10.
If we know how our brains work and how sellers might act, what should we do It can be useful to take time to consider what we’re buying, hold on to something and walk around the shop before buying to give ourselves more time to evaluate a potential purchase. It can also be sensible to research prices before shopping, to get a better idea of what represents good value.
12. What happens when we think about the item we want to purchase
A. Areas related to delight start to function.
B. More dopamine will be released.
C. The medial prefrontal cortex shuts down.
D. Areas sensitive to pain become active.
13. What does the underlined word “initial” in Paragraph 3 probably refer to
A. false B. current C. original D. appealing
14. What can be inferred from the passage
A. Researching prices before shopping is useless.
B. Our brains like rewards for discovering bargains.
C. Taking time to consider purchases is inadvisable.
D. Charm pricing makes customers want to pay more.
15. What would be the best title for the passage
A. The Function of Medial Prefrontal Cortex
B. How to Avoid Shopping Chaos Intelligently
C. Why Bargains Are Favored by Customers
D. Sellers’ Strategies and Customers’ Reactions

47. 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。
It was late and raining heavily one night. A young woman was waiting for her flight at an airport. She was leaving for London because she got a new job there. It was said that her new boss was a typical English gentleman — polite, modest, humorous and considerate. She was excited as well as a little nervous about her new life.
With several long hours before her flight the woman hunted for a book in the airport shop, bought a packet of cookies and found a place to sit. She took out the book and started to read. Although she was absorbed in her book, she happened to see that the man sitting beside her, as bold as he could be, took a cookie or two from the bag in between. Educated to be well mannered，she tried to ignore it to avoid an argument. But to show that she was the owner, she started to take cookies from that bag too. Unfortunately，the man didn’t get that hint (暗示)，since he didn’t stop grabbing the cookies.
How annoying! As the greedy cookie thief kept eating, the woman munched (大声咀嚼) some cookies and watched the clock.
She was getting angrier as the minutes went by, thinking, “If I weren’t so nice, I would blacken his eyes.” With each cookie she took，he took one, too. When only one was left, she wondered what he would do.
With a smile on his face, and a nervous laugh, he took the last cookie and broke it in half. He offered her a half, and ate the other. She took it from him, glared at him and thought, “Oh brother! This guy has some nerve and he is so rude! Why didn’t he even show any gratefulness ”
She had never known when she had been so angry and sighed in relief when her flight was called. She gathered her belongings and headed to the gate quickly, refusing to look back at the rude thief. She boarded the plane, sank in her seat, and looked for her book, which was almost complete.
As she reached inside her baggage, she gasped with surprise.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Surprisingly she found the man sitting just behind her.

As she reached inside her baggage, she gasped with surprise. At that moment, in her sight came the packet of cookies, which had been just bought by her, unopened at all. Ashamed and feeling like a thief, she finally realized that the cookies were not hers but belonged to the man sitting next to her, who had calmly offered to share his last cookie with her. A sudden rush of shy blood filling the face, she instinctively looked around in the hope of finding the very man to make an apology.
Surprisingly she found the man sitting just behind her. He was just looking up and met her eyes, also with a smile on his face. The woman was at an absolute loss but gave the man a nervous smile in return. With a quite open mouth, she was unable to say any apology to him, murmuring “Sorry, sorry... It was I myself who was the real cookie thief.” After a while, she fell asleep in her seat with the plane flying steadily. The next day, when she arrived at her new company, the biggest surprise was waiting for her — the man was just her new boss.
