TV | FOR LEARNERS
If you are looking for ways to improve your language skills while relaxing on the sofa, the TV series Brooklyn Nine-Nine gives you comedy in uncomplicated English. This police show set in New York City ran from 2013 until 2021 — all episodes are available now on Netflix.
To begin with, you may find the dialect a little hard to understand, but you’ll soon see why the light-hearted adventures of a team of detectives have won so many awards. Its humor often stems from everyday situations and character interactions, making it ideal for mastering natural spoken English. This series is not about complicated plots and dark crimes. It’s fun and funny. So, switch off the subtitles and enjoy some — almost — effortless language lessons.
SERIES | DRAMA
Streaming on Apple TV+, every 30-minute episode of Little America focuses on the life of an immigrant in America. Although these are acted features, all the episodes are based — some more loosely than others — on the lives of real immigrants to the United States.
It’s not just the reality of experience that gives this series authenticity. Beyond the difficulties of everyday life for new arrivals — of permits, of poverty, and of prejudice (歧视) — these are simply modest stories of moderate success. Each story invites viewers to reflect on themes like identity, belonging, and resilience. But they all have one thing in common: the poetry of hope and determination.
Watching Little America is not only a lesson in great storytelling. It’s also, quite wonderfully, an interpretation of the values and sentiments (温情) at the heart of America’s founding documents. Now is a good time to see those values reenacted.
21. Where can viewers watch Brooklyn Nine-Nine
A. On Apple TV+. B. On Netflix.
C. In New York City. D. On various channels.
22. What is Little America based on
A. American founding documents. B. Real immigrants’ life stories.
C. Complicated criminal plots. D. Modern American poetry.
23. What is the main purpose of the passage
A. To compare two popular shows.
B. To analyze TV show artistry.
C. To suggest shows for learning.
D. To introduce new TV series.
B
Britain has some pretty little seaside towns, but the problem is that people won’t leave them alone. It’s Google’s fault — for always providing links to articles about them. Within seconds, Londoners are on their way to buy a second home.
They arrive like the middle-class Vikings, but in Range Rovers rather than longboats. They make it harder for locals to rent and, being seasonal visitors who leave when summer ends, the shops close. A vote in Whitby, Yorkshire, showed people want to stop new houses being sold to second-homers. Maybe we shouldn’t think of them as Vikings, but as Greeks in wooden horses.
Is this too simplistic Pretty little towns do have empty shops, but so do ugly big ones. In non-seaside towns, a butcher’s becomes a betting shop; in seaside towns, it becomes an art gallery. Sea air makes tourists want to hang pictures on their walls.
Londoners know that art likes to fill a vacuum. Tate Modern, the gallery on the south bank of the River Thames, is located in a former power station. It’s so large, you could almost fit a pretty little seaside town inside its entrance hall.
Little towns are also losing banks. Does that matter, now that everyone pays by card It’s not as if artists carry watercolours to pay for shopping. And since they use sunflower oil for paintings, they at least have something to cook with if the card machine fails.
The art world is full of surprises: buildings that were banks become art shops, while walls decorated by Banksy — the anonymous (匿名的) street artist — become artworks themselves. His surprise murals (壁画) are so valuable that they turn building exteriors into galleries.
That way, the inside is free to carry on being an empty shop — unless, of course, the greengrocer has left a banana inside.
24. What causes Londoners to buy seaside homes
A. Articles about pretty little towns. B. Google’s travel recommendations.
C. Cheap housing prices there. D. Better weather conditions.
25. How do second-home owners affect local shops
A. They help shops stay open longer. B. They open more art galleries.
C. They make shops close seasonally. D. They improve shop quality.
26. What is the trend in seaside town shops
A. From betting shops to supermarkets. B. From banks to watercolor stores.
C. From galleries to butcher’s shops. D. From local shops to art galleries.
27. What is the author’s writing style
A. Formal and academic. B. Objective and neutral.
C. Emotional and passionate. D. Humorous and ironic.

When lawyer Cui Can recalled his first pet-related case, his tone turned reflective. In February, a client had left two cats — a mother and her offspring — with a pet sitter found on Xiaohongshu. Just three days later, both cats fell from the 19th floor and died.
“The emotional toll on the owner was immense. He had raised them since they were kittens and was heartbroken,” Cui said. The case never went to court. Instead, Cui helped negotiate a settlement worth a few thousand yuan, paid in monthly installments (付款) by the sitter, a recent graduate who claimed financial hardship.
“In many pet disputes, litigation (诉讼) is impractical — emotional and financial costs often outweigh the compensation,” Cui explained. “My role is usually to mediate (调解) outcomes that acknowledge the loss, not just monetarily.”
Earlier this year, Cui decided to specialize in pet-related disputes, a niche few Chinese lawyers have entered. Since then, he has handled cases involving medical errors, sales fraud, custody battles, and wrongful death. He enjoys being called a “pet lawyer.”
One of the most heartbreaking cases came from Xi’an: a young man’s dog died during a dental procedure because the clinic skipped pre-anesthesia (麻醉) assessments. The owner, who had raised the dog since high school, developed severe depression afterward.
Such tragedies are set against a rapidly growing pet population. A Goldman Sachs report from February 2024 noted that China’s pet numbers surpassed children under four for the first time, and by 2030, pets are projected to outnumber young children by nearly two to one.
As pet ownership booms, related disputes are increasing, yet the legal system has been slow to adapt. Still, Cui remains hopeful: “Pets aren’t just property — they’re family. The law should reflect that.”
28. How was Cui Can’s first pet-related case resolved
A. A formal court trial. B. A full negligence ruling.
C. A settlement with monthly payments. D. A full insurance payment.
29. What does the Goldman Sachs report indicate
A. Pet numbers will soon exceed adults. B. Pet ownership is replacing parenting.
C. Pet care costs are rising rapidly. D. Pet population growth is significant.
30. What can be inferred about China’s pet industry
A. Its legal system is well developed. B. Its growth brings new legal challenges.
C. Its disputes mainly involve sales fraud. D. Its service quality meets expectations.
31. Which title best summarizes the passage
A. Young Lawyer opts to Defend Pet Friends B. Rising Pet Injuries in Modern Society
C. Legal Reforms for Animal Protection D. Economic Trends in Pet Industry
D
Inclusive education ensures all students learn alongside their same-age peers in regular classrooms, regardless of ability or disability. Its core philosophy is simple: every child can learn in their own way, belongs in mainstream education, and benefits from this shared experience.
A defining feature is that students of all abilities learn together for most of the day. Simply housing children with disabilities in the same building but keeping them segregated does not count as inclusion. The curriculum should assume competence and set high standards while adapting to each child’s abilities.
We must shift from asking how best to educate children with disabilities to how best to educate all students together in meaningful ways. Inclusion considers the whole child — academic development, emotional intelligence, social skills — and finds ways to include everyone. The entire school environment matters, from physical spaces to teacher training and curriculum design.
Despite its strong philosophical foundation, a persistent question about inclusive education remains: “Does it actually work ”
Research spanning over 30 years confirms its effectiveness. A common concern is that inclusion might hinder non-disabled peers’ progress, but studies disprove this. A 2013 study showed no significant difference in achievement between inclusive and non-inclusive settings. Earlier research found most non-disabled students experienced no negative effects or even positive ones. For students with disabilities, effects were overwhelmingly positive. A U.S. study tracking 11,000 students linked more time in general education to better attendance, fewer behavioral issues, and improved post-school outcomes.
Beyond academics, inclusive education fosters social skills, problem-solving abilities, and respect for diversity, preparing all children for life in an inclusive society.
Ultimately, if schools aim to prepare children for adult life, inclusive education becomes essential. It affirms disabled individuals as valued members of society and demonstrates that when every person is supported to reach their potential, the entire community benefits.
32. What does the underlined word “segregated” in the second paragraph mean？
A. Cared for properly. B. Taught specially. C. Treated equally. D. Separated from others.
33. How does the author counter the concern about academic progress
A. By redefining educational goals. B. By citing research findings.
C. By improving classroom support. D. By comparing test scores.
34. What is the fundamental basis for implementing inclusive education
A. Shared learning experiences. B. Standardized testing results.
C. Specialized classroom settings. D. Individual learning targets.
35. How does inclusive education benefit society as a whole
A. By offering separate learning tracks.
B. By promoting individual competition.
C. By developing socially cohesive communities.
D. By tailoring instruction to each child’s abilities.

There’s a new AI bot in town: ChatGPT, and even if you’re not into artificial intelligence, you’d better pay attention. 36 The system shows off and tests what a very large, powerful AI system can accomplish. You can ask it countless questions and will often get a useful answer.
For example, you can ask it encyclopedic questions like, “Explain Newton’s laws of motion.” You can tell it, “Write me a poem,” and when it does, say, “Now make it more exciting.”
37 You can tell it to show you all the different ways you can arrange the letters of a word.
38 It’s an AI that’s trained to recognize patterns in a vast range of text harvested from the Internet, then further trained with human assistance to deliver more useful, better dialogues. The answers you get may sound credible and even authoritative, but they might well be entirely wrong, as OpenAI warns.
39 At the same time, the pursuit has captivated AI researchers, who see them as a pathway to tackling the Turing Test. That’s the famous “Imitation Game” that computer scientist Alan Turing proposed in 1950 as a way to judge intelligence: Can a human conversing with a human and with a computer tell which is which
But a study of 1,700 Americans, sponsored by Ujet (a company that provides customer contact technology), found that 72% of people found little value in chatbots. 40
A. You can ask it to write a computer program.
B. That means they can be just a waste of time.
C. AI chatbot technology is evolving at lightning speed.
D. ChatGPT is an AI chatbot system released by OpenAI.
E. Therefore, chatbots must take on social responsibility.
F. Chatbots have long been explored as a tool for customer service.
G. The key limitation is that ChatGPT doesn’t exactly know anything.

A Heartwarming Moment at the Autumn Sports Meet
第二节（满分25分）
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之成为一篇完整的短文。
Finding my center on the stage, I prepared for my dance performance with a confident smile. This was the day I’d perform the routine I had practiced for a year, attempting a challenging series of fouetté turns (挥鞭转). My friend Leo yelled, “You can do it, Lena!” My other friends had their fingers crossed. My dance teacher Ms. Evans whispered, “You look beautiful!”
As the music started, I was fully prepared. With graceful leaps and spins, I began my performance. Everything progressed smoothly until I reached the crucial fouetté sequence. Though I could execute (完成) it perfectly during rehearsals (排练), I’d only completed the full sequence successfully on stage a handful of times.
I began the turns but lost my balance after just a few rotations (旋转) — well short of the required sixteen. I heard my friends sigh and saw my teacher raise an eyebrow.
Determined, I attempted the fouettés again later in the routine, but failed once more. I tried repeatedly, failing again and again, which threw off my timing and left me struggling on stage. When my performance ended, my costume was damp with sweat and I was far behind the music. The silence was deafening. As I walked offstage, I felt the weight of everyone’s stare.
On my way to my teacher, I heard the crowd cheering for Mia, a charming eight-year-old who gracefully danced past me. I felt with a crushing certainty that my dance career was over.
My teacher handed me my dance bag and asked if I had improvised (即兴表演) my routine. I didn’t know how to reply. My friends avoided making eye contact, embarrassed for me. They seemed to be discussing me — all except for Leo, who brought me water and apologized before heading on stage for his own performance.
注意：
（1）续写词数应为150左右；
（2）请按如下格式在答题纸相应位置作答。
I felt a strong urge to go home, but my teacher insisted that we wait for the results. Full of doubt, I returned to the studio the next morning.参考答案及解析（含听力原文）
