In Massachusetts, food waste is a serious issue. When thrown into landfills(垃圾填埋场), it produces methane, a harmful greenhouse gas. To tackle this, the state has a rule: Large food businesses must keep food waste out of the trash. Helping them follow this rule is Heather Billings, a 63-year-old waste reduction consultant.
One cold morning, Ms. Billings visited the Port Tavern, a sports bar in Newburyport. Abbie Hannan, the co-owner, had invited her to examine how the restaurant dealt with its waste. In the kitchen, Ms. Billings noticed a simple but common mistake: Food scraps(下脚料) like tomato tops were being thrown into a large trash can. Then, at the dumpster, she checked for compostable(可用作堆肥的) items.
As a state-hired consultant, Ms. Billings took notes and gave practical suggestions. She recommended using smaller buckets inside trash bins to collect food scraps, and she connected the restaurant with composting services and food donation programs. “Our biggest challenge is getting the staff to follow the rules,” Ms. Hannan said. Ms. Billings responded by showing clear signs that could be posted in the kitchen as reminders.
The state’s regulation applies to places producing over half a ton of waste per week. While businesses that ignore the rule can be penalized, the authorities rarely step in. Still, many restaurants are trying. Some even donate extra food to charities, as hunger remains a problem in many communities.
Massachusetts has made more progress than other states with similar laws. Environmental groups hope to go further, encouraging residents to compost at home. Meanwhile, the law has also helped new composting companies grow.
For Ms. Billings, this work is more than a job. She sees it as a way to protect the environment. At Port Tavern, the biggest challenge was that four restaurants shared the only one dumpster. “It’s complicated,” Ms. Hannan admitted. “Not impossible,” Ms. Billings said with a smile.
24．What does the state rule require large food businesses in Massachusetts to do
A．Limit the amount of food waste. B．Record the daily food waste.
C．separate food waste from trash. D．Donate food scraps to charities.
25．What did Ms. Billings suggest Ms. Hannan do for her staff
A．Post the relevant instructions. B．Provide basic training.
C．Replace trash containers. D．Make stricter rules.
26．What does the underlined word “penalized” in paragraph 4 mean
A．Revised. B．Punished. C．Inspected. D．Recognized.
27．What can be inferred about the regulation’s impact
A．It’s rarely followed in practice.
B．It strengthens business cooperation.
C．It helps solve the public health issue.
D．It promotes environmental improvement.
C
If someone created a flying machine capable of tracking you down by listening for your voice, you might be terrified. But what if you were trapped in ruins after a natural disaster and first responders couldn’t locate you Maybe then a human-seeking drone(无人机) wouldn’t be such a terrible idea. That concept is the focus for engineers at Germany’s Fraunhofer FKIE Institute, who’ve built a drone to find people by detecting(探测) human screams.
“The human-seeking drone would be ideal for post-disaster situations,” said Macarena Varela, one of the lead engineers. “They could hover over an area that rescue crews have difficulty getting to and locate exactly where people may be trapped.” An auditory(听觉的) system would need to distinguish human cries from sounds that often happen in nature, such as animal calls and wind. It might also need to recognize patterns associated with kicking, clapping or other ways people try to get the attention of rescue teams.
Engineers took those situations into account when building out their concept drone. They recorded themselves screaming, tapping and creating other noises that might be a sign of people in trouble. Then, they analyzed each sound frequency to find common signatures and used those to train artificial intelligence software. They also worked to remove the noise created by the drone and other environmental sounds.
Once the software part was complete, the team placed tiny digital microphones under the drone and used signal processing techniques that enabled them to track where human noises are coming from. The microphones also enhanced the volume and clarity of the speech. So far, they have conducted successful open field experiments, finding that the drone can estimate a victim’s location within a few seconds of picking up sound.
Next, they would like to add a higher frequency microphone to a drone to acquire more audio sound signals.
28．What is the advantage of the human-seeking drone
A．Its high speed of flying. B．Its long working hours.
C．Its quick response to screams. D．Its easy access to disaster scene.
29．What can the auditory system do
A．Make out human cries. B．Pick up sounds from far away.
C．Send victim’s location data to a tablet. D．Improve the quality of human screams.
30．What does the underlined word “signatures” in paragraph 3 refer to
A．Effects. B．Symbols. C．Situations. D．Features.
31．Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A．AI Enables Drones to Give Better Performance.
B．Engineers Teach Drones to Hunt Human Screams.
C．Human-seeking Drones Replace Rescue Crews.
D．Rescuers Use Drones to Locate Disaster Survivors.
D
Financial education is not often taught to students in school, so the responsibility falls to the parents. However, many families believe that involving their children in how the family’s finances are handled is taboo. Financial planners, however, believe that involving children in financial matters is actually the best way to begin educating them.
“By keeping children away from financial discussions, you are really denying them an education,” says Joseph Oakley, host of the Enjoy More 30s podcast (播客) and a certified financial planner. “You’re denying them a framework to build upon.”
Oakley notes that children will finally develop their own financial mindset, which could be influenced by what they see on television, social media, or through their friends. When they get their first job, they’ll likely lack experience in handling finances because they don’t know enough about managing their money. According to Oakley, it is up to parents to teach them how to develop those skills.
Learning financial responsibility doesn’t have to be formal, Oakley says. Instead, it can be about showing children how to handle everyday money tasks, like paying bills online or using credit cards wisely. Another example is teaching them about spending now or saving for later, such as saving money for a vacation.
While childhood financial education is crucial, Oakley reveals a systemic imbalance: Over 80% of financial resources serve people preparing for retirement because that’s where most of the assets (资产) are. He stresses the importance of working with a financial planner when you are a young adult because waiting to speak to someone when you’re close to retirement could affect your financial plans. He says it is easier for younger people to make life-changing decisions and adjust their paths.

32．What do many parents think of involving children in family financial matters
A．It is a good way to educate children. B．It is something that should be avoided.
C．It is an important life skill to develop. D．It is schools that shall take full responsibility.
33．What’s the impact on children if they are kept out of financial discussions according to Oakley
A．Developing a good financial mindset. B．Lacking necessary life-planning skills.
C．Tending to be financially inexperienced. D．Getting well-prepared for their first job.
34．What is Oakley’s advice on parents' educating children about finances
A．Figure out schools’ duties.
B．Make financial plans for children.
C．Attach importance to formal instructions.
D．Offer real-life examples for informal education.
35．What is the purpose of mentioning the podcast K12 On Learning
A．To promote a new book by Joseph Oakley.
B．To discuss the guidelines of financial goal-setting.
C．To criticize existing financial education podcasts.
D．To allow listeners easy access to Oakley’s advice.

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Dad is a busy mechanic. Every Saturday he puts on his apron and produces delicious bread. 36
I’ve been feeling stressed out myself as I found out I didn’t qualify for the swim team. Now I’ll have to wait a whole year to try out again. I think Dad knew how I felt, so this Saturday he invited me to help him bake.
Dad first got out everything needed, and then told me to mix the ingredients (配料) with a spoon. After that he showed me how to knead the dough (揉面团). 37 It took only ten minutes but a surprising amount of energy to complete.
Next came the most difficult part — doing nothing. 38 Then punched (捶打) it down and waited for it to rise again. Dad said the waiting is always the hardest part as you have to resist the thought of putting the dough directly into the oven.
39 Silence is like the dough that rises and fills a room with emptiness unless you punch it down with words. It felt good to listen and share our thoughts. 40 The dough would rise at its own pace. We could do nothing to make it rise faster.
I learned how to bake, and I also learned to appreciate the slowly ticking rhythm of time, to relax and let the bread rise.
A．I think he bakes to relax.
B．While we waited, we sat and talked.
C．We waited for the dough to slowly swell up.
D．It was a simple task but required some strength.
E．I was so eager to taste the bread we made together.
F．Dad always enjoys sharing his baking skills with me.
G．As the flour dust quietly settled, time seemed to slow down.

“Today's test score will decide who has topped the class, so be ready,” announced Miss Natasha in the classroom.
Miss Natasha got everyone's test papers, cleared her throat to announce the results and distributed the test papers among the students. Everyone was nervous about their scores that would be announced soon.
Ali and Bob have been competitors since class one and each year either one of the two came first in the class. This year, there was tough competition between both of them, and they eagerly awaited the results.
“Peter, 18,”announced Miss Natasha as she handed him his paper,“Eric, 16, Ali, 20, Bob, 19 ... and lastly Alia, 15.”
When Miss Natasha had distributed the test papers in class, everyone found out that Ali beat Bob by one mark and topped the class. Everyone congratulated him and Ali was happy as he accepted everyone's congratulations.
As Ali was about to put his paper in his bag, he noticed that by mistake Miss Natasha had given him two marks for an incorrect answer. He was shocked. He rechecked his answers and realized that all his answers were correct except for that one. Now if he informed Miss Natasha about it, he would not only lose two marks but also his first position.
Considering the situation, he remained quiet and went home. But all day he kept thinking about it. Should he or shouldn't he tell Miss Natasha about it He thought that it had been already done, and no one would notice if he didn't tell anyone, but then another thought crossed his mind. If he didn't tell the teacher about it and stayed the position-holder in class, he wouldn't rightfully take the position as it clearly belonged to Bob.
This situation put Ali in a hard position. His parents always taught him to do the right thing, but doing the right thing here meant he would lose his first position. He remembered how everyone cheered for him and congratulated him in class.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150 左右；
2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
He knew that by informing the teacher about it, he would lose it all.

第一节：
Dear Jenny,
After thinking about your choice, I strongly recommend you pick “Yugong Moves Mountains” for the “Stories of China” speech contest.
Firstly, its theme of perseverance in the face of huge challenges is universally inspiring. Unlike “Kong Rong Shares Pears” which focuses more on family etiquette, Yugong’s story shows a bold Chinese spirit that foreign audiences can easily connect with. Secondly, the story has vivid details — like Yugong arguing with the wise man and his family working together, which will make your speech livelier and engaging. Finally, it perfectly fits the contest’s goal: telling a story that reflects the core strength of Chinese culture.
I’m sure you’ll shine on the stage with this choice!
Yours,
Li Hua

He knew that by informing the teacher about it, he would lose it all. As he fought with his thoughts, his mum asked him,“What's the matter ”“Mum, what if doing the right thing would mean you would lose something ”he asked in reply.“Son, if it is the right thing to do, then I am sure you will be rewarded for it. A wrong thing may seem attractive at first, but if it is wrong, it will hurt us someday,” his mum said.
“My son, you are a brave and honest boy so just do what you think is right,”his mum continued. The next day in class, Miss Natasha announced,“Today Ali has done what only a few of us would have the courage to do. He came to me and told me that I had mistakenly given him two marks and he was right about it, so the first position goes to Bob, not Ali.” Everyone, even Bob, was surprised by this development. After the class, Bob asked Ali,“Why did you do that ”Ali simply replied,“Because it was the right thing to do.
