Robert Taylor talks about his art show
Like all children, I was always getting myself and the kitchen table in a mess when I first took an interest in painting. Unlike many kids, who give up activities like art for other subjects when they go through school, I continued painting throughout my childhood. Now, after years of enjoyment, I’ve finally decided to display some of my works by holding an show at Glebe Street library.
I’ve never had any formal art training. When I was trying to decide what I should study at university, art as a subject never entered my head. I always thought my parents wanted me to follow a subject that would be useful when I was looking for a job, so I ended up taking a business course.
And during my time at university, I seldom painted. It wouldn’t have been easy to paint anyway as I lived in school and had very little space. I kept an interest in art though and visited local exhibitions (展览) whenever I could, but that was about it. It was later in my thirties while I was working that I discovered my love of the activity again. Since then I’ve made a point of spending at least one evening a week painting.
However, my works have only ever been seen by trusted friends. They’ve always given me plenty of support and encouragement. But I’ve always wondered what strangers would think. Maybe they could give me an honest opinion of my ability. The library has offered me a room for the show. They’ve asked me to supply questionnaires about the event and I’ve included a section for visitors’ comments about the works. I’m very much looking forward to reading these opinions.
24. What can we know about the writer from paragraph 1
A. He kept painting in his childhood.
B. He has held several great art shows.
C. He liked cooking when he was a child.
D. He gave up other subjects for art in school.
25. Why did the writer choose a business course instead of art in university
A. He had no formal art training.
B. His parents forced him to do so.
C. The business course helps in job-hunting.
D. Jobs in business were well-paid.
26. What did the writer do about art in university
A. He painted a lot in school. B. He visited art exhibitions.
C. He organized art activities. D. He did part-time jobs about art.
27. Which of the following words best describe the writer
A. Hardworking but shy. B. Creative but unlucky.
C. Positive and warm-hearted. D. Determined and talented.
C
The desert of Abu Dhabi is an extremely dry place with very little water. The plants and animals in the desert must adapt to (适应) this tough condition. It has been found that many plants have special ways to store water or withstand high temperatures.
Recently, researchers in Abu Dhabi’s desert found a plant called the Athel tamarisk. This tree can thrive there and actually grow up to 18 meters tall. The tree seems to use salt crystals (结晶体) on its leaves to pull water from the air.
After a researcher noticed water appearing on these crystals, her team recorded videos of the plants. Later, they found out why the tree can survive in such a dry and salty desert. The tree gets rid of extra salt by producing salt crystals onto its leaves. However, this also helps the plant pull moisture (水分) from the air. This is a useful skill in extremely dry environments. The findings were reported in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
The team examined salt crystals on the plant’s leaves. They found more than 10 different kinds of salt. Most of the larger salt crystals simply fall from the leaves. But they also found small crystals of lithium sulfate (硫酸锂). These small crystals stay on the leaves and take in water from the air. When the team added colored water to salty leaves, the water stuck to the crystals, and then went into the plant’s leaves. This proves that the crystals help the plant collect water.
Hopefully, the discovery could help people in dry places to collect moisture from the air, or even promote rain, the team says.
28. What does the underlined word “thrive” in paragraph 2 probably mean
A. Die out. B. Stand straight. C. Break down. D. Grow well.
29. How does the Athel tamarisk pull water from the air
A. By removing air inside the plant.
B. By producing salt crystals on its leaves.
C. By growing up to 18 meters tall.
D. By changing the shapes of its leaves.
30. Why did the researchers add colored water to salty leaves
A. To compare different kinds of salt.
B. To examine the structure of tree leaves.
C. To prove salt crystals help collect water.
D. To find out how much water the tree takes in.
31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. Water Found in Abu Dhabi’s Desert
B. New Discoveries about the Secrets of Desert
C. A Plant in the Desert Pulls Water from the Air
D. Trees Grow Well in Terrible Weather Conditions
D
Have you ever wondered why some online ads always seem to be targeted at your tastes Websites and apps use various technologies to collect information about what you do online. Advertisers and companies may use Internet-connected devices like your laptop and smartphone to track your activity.
The tracking helps them know your preferences and data, like your username or items you left in your shopping cart. It also allows them to show you personalized content like local weather and stories you’re interested in, or display targeted ads based on your browsing (浏览) history or location.
When a website you visit tracks you, that’s first-party tracking. It involves using personal information that you use to enter it to recognize you even after you leave the site. When the website lets another company track you, that’s third-party tracking. Third-party tracking companies can follow your browsing patterns across most websites and let advertisers serve ads based on your interests and online activity. For example, after visiting a website about running and fitness, you might see ads for running shoes on other websites.
If you don’t want to see these ads, the most direct approach is to clear browsing and search history. Another effective strategy you can follow is to adjust your privacy settings in your browser that limit the information websites collect about you. For instance, you can choose to block websites from seeing your browsing history or choose not to share your location with them.
Besides, ad blockers can keep ads from appearing on your browser. They work by filtering specific content according to the rules set by the program or the user. Most importantly, when you visit a website, pay attention to its notice about how the website uses personal information. The notice may let you choose what type to allow. Those choices often include allowing only some information that is necessary for the site to function or allowing more for advertising and other purposes. Choose the option that best fits your preferences.
32. What is the primary purpose of online tracking
A. To monitor users all the time. B. To help users store historical data.
C. To personalize the user experience. D. To connect people with similar tastes.
33. Which of the following best describes third-party tracking
A. It is not allowed by law.
B. It leads users to certain websites.
C. It is applied for marketing purposes.
D. It allows advertisers to change user data.
34. What would most likely help reduce targeted ads while you are browsing
A. Using new browsers. B. Removing existing data.
C. Turning off your Internet connection. D. Ignoring the website’s privacy notices.
35. What does the text aim to teach readers
A. How to develop ad-blocking strategies.
B. How to stop third-party tracking effectively.
C. How to support personalized content creation.
D. How to understand online tracking and protect privacy.

听力原文：W: Last Christmas, I was invited to Canada by my aunt Judy. I have never been to other countries. So I was so excited about the trip that I didn’t sleep well for several nights. On the day of leaving, my father thought that I might be caught in the traffic jam if I took a bus to the airport, so he drove me there. But our car broke down on the way. As the time went by, I began to worry about missing the flight. I decided to stop a car to take me to the airport. Many cars went past me with high speed before a white Bora stopped by my side. Thanks to the driver, I arrived at the airport just in time at 1:50 p.m. to catch my plane which would leave ten minutes later. It was my first flight and I was a bit nervous. When the plane was taking off, my ears felt funny. I was really sick. Luckily it was all over after a while. On my window seat, I could enjoy the bird’s-eye view of beautiful cities, land, grass, forests and blue sea. Sometimes our plane flew right over the white clouds. Unluckily I didn’t see any hills. Maybe I missed them. What a wonderful view!

Robert Taylor talks about his art show
Like all children, I was always getting myself and the kitchen table in a mess when I first took an interest in painting. Unlike many kids, who give up activities like art for other subjects when they go through school, I continued painting throughout my childhood. Now, after years of enjoyment, I’ve finally decided to display some of my works by holding an show at Glebe Street library.
I’ve never had any formal art training. When I was trying to decide what I should study at university, art as a subject never entered my head. I always thought my parents wanted me to follow a subject that would be useful when I was looking for a job, so I ended up taking a business course.
And during my time at university, I seldom painted. It wouldn’t have been easy to paint anyway as I lived in school and had very little space. I kept an interest in art though and visited local exhibitions (展览) whenever I could, but that was about it. It was later in my thirties while I was working that I discovered my love of the activity again. Since then I’ve made a point of spending at least one evening a week painting.
However, my works have only ever been seen by trusted friends. They’ve always given me plenty of support and encouragement. But I’ve always wondered what strangers would think. Maybe they could give me an honest opinion of my ability. The library has offered me a room for the show. They’ve asked me to supply questionnaires about the event and I’ve included a section for visitors’ comments about the works. I’m very much looking forward to reading these opinions.

D. He gave up other subjects for art in school.

The desert of Abu Dhabi is an extremely dry place with very little water. The plants and animals in the desert must adapt to (适应) this tough condition. It has been found that many plants have special ways to store water or withstand high temperatures.
Recently, researchers in Abu Dhabi’s desert found a plant called the Athel tamarisk. This tree can thrive there and actually grow up to 18 meters tall. The tree seems to use salt crystals (结晶体) on its leaves to pull water from the air.
After a researcher noticed water appearing on these crystals, her team recorded videos of the plants. Later, they found out why the tree can survive in such a dry and salty desert. The tree gets rid of extra salt by producing salt crystals onto its leaves. However, this also helps the plant pull moisture (水分) from the air. This is a useful skill in extremely dry environments. The findings were reported in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
The team examined salt crystals on the plant’s leaves. They found more than 10 different kinds of salt. Most of the larger salt crystals simply fall from the leaves. But they also found small crystals of lithium sulfate (硫酸锂). These small crystals stay on the leaves and take in water from the air. When the team added colored water to salty leaves, the water stuck to the crystals, and then went into the plant’s leaves. This proves that the crystals help the plant collect water.
Hopefully, the discovery could help people in dry places to collect moisture from the air, or even promote rain, the team says.
28. What does the underlined word “thrive” in paragraph 2 probably mean
A. Die out. B. Stand straight. C. Break down. D. Grow well.
29. How does the Athel tamarisk pull water from the air
A. By removing air inside the plant.
B. By producing salt crystals on its leaves.
C. By growing up to 18 meters tall.
D. By changing the shapes of its leaves.
30. Why did the researchers add colored water to salty leaves
A. To compare different kinds of salt.
B. To examine the structure of tree leaves.
C. To prove salt crystals help collect water.
D. To find out how much water the tree takes in.
31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. Water Found in Abu Dhabi’s Desert
B. New Discoveries about the Secrets of Desert
C. A Plant in the Desert Pulls Water from the Air
D. Trees Grow Well in Terrible Weather Conditions

Have you ever wondered why some online ads always seem to be targeted at your tastes Websites and apps use various technologies to collect information about what you do online. Advertisers and companies may use Internet-connected devices like your laptop and smartphone to track your activity.
The tracking helps them know your preferences and data, like your username or items you left in your shopping cart. It also allows them to show you personalized content like local weather and stories you’re interested in, or display targeted ads based on your browsing (浏览) history or location.
When a website you visit tracks you, that’s first-party tracking. It involves using personal information that you use to enter it to recognize you even after you leave the site. When the website lets another company track you, that’s third-party tracking. Third-party tracking companies can follow your browsing patterns across most websites and let advertisers serve ads based on your interests and online activity. For example, after visiting a website about running and fitness, you might see ads for running shoes on other websites.
If you don’t want to see these ads, the most direct approach is to clear browsing and search history. Another effective strategy you can follow is to adjust your privacy settings in your browser that limit the information websites collect about you. For instance, you can choose to block websites from seeing your browsing history or choose not to share your location with them.
Besides, ad blockers can keep ads from appearing on your browser. They work by filtering specific content according to the rules set by the program or the user. Most importantly, when you visit a website, pay attention to its notice about how the website uses personal information. The notice may let you choose what type to allow. Those choices often include allowing only some information that is necessary for the site to function or allowing more for advertising and other purposes. Choose the option that best fits your preferences.
32. What is the primary purpose of online tracking
A. To monitor users all the time. B. To help users store historical data.
C. To personalize the user experience. D. To connect people with similar tastes.
33. Which of the following best describes third-party tracking
A. It is not allowed by law.
B. It leads users to certain websites.
C. It is applied for marketing purposes.
D. It allows advertisers to change user data.
34. What would most likely help reduce targeted ads while you are browsing
A. Using new browsers. B. Removing existing data.
C. Turning off your Internet connection. D. Ignoring the website’s privacy notices.
35. What does the text aim to teach readers
A. How to develop ad-blocking strategies.
B. How to stop third-party tracking effectively.
C. How to support personalized content creation.
D. How to understand online tracking and protect privacy.
