You shouldn’t need a PowerPoint presentation to explain why getting a cat is a great idea, but Shana, a little girl, wasn’t taking any chances. She really, really wanted her parents to adopt a kitty, and she was willing to go to great lengths to convince them! So, she put together a very professional and educational slideshow (幻灯片) with all the related facts. Her arguments were pretty solid!
For example, Shana explained that she wasn’t the only one in the family who would benefit from getting a kitty. All her brothers and sisters wanted one, too! Another point was her claim that “It would be so cute, please.” Additionally, she reminded her parents that they still owed her one. “Please, seriously you promised me a hamster (仓鼠) five years ago but that never happened, just let me have this,” the child wrote. She also noted that pets can help relieve stress, which was a crucially persuasive point.
Throughout the PowerPoint, the little girl made several promises to take full responsibility for the cat’s health and well-being. She assured her parents that she had done her homework on animal care, and she understood what she was signing up for.
Dad Christopher Doyle thought that his daughter’s PowerPoint on adopting a cat was pretty clever. In fact, he thought that the little girl’s determination was so cute, he just had to post her presentation on social media.
Would this PowerPoint be enough to earn the girl a cat In case you’re wondering, it worked! Dad shared in a later post that the family was filling out adoption paperwork in order to bring home a kitty. Of course, this was bound to happen. After all, who could refuse such a well-researched PowerPoint The family ended up adopting a rescue kitty, whom the kids named Oliver.
4. What do the underlined words “go to great lengths” mean in paragraph 1
A. Spare no effort. B. Go to extremes.
C. Waste a lot of time. D. Change her mind.
5. Which is the key point used by Shana to persuade her parents
A. She has learned enough about animal care.
B. All the family members are dying for a cat.
C. Raising pets like cats helps reduce pressure.
D. Her parents did owe her one pet in the past.
6. How did Doyle feel about his daughter’s slideshow
A Awkward. B. Appreciative. C. Surprised. D. Curious.
7. What can we learn from Shana’s story

In the 19th century, the harp (竖琴) was Ireland’s main musical instrument, but it was overshadowed quickly by the piano, which was stylish and easier to play. The harp’s popularity faded rapidly, highlighting how new technologies often replace old ones without much reflection. The idea is explored in Christine Rosen’s book, “The Extinction of Experience”.
Rosen, a historian, warns about social consequences of technological advancements. She inspires readers to consider both the gains and losses when embracing new technologies. Rosen acknowledges the benefits of the internet but criticizes how old ways of doing things are dying without proper acknowledgment.
Being human involves physical interaction and complex actions, but modern technologies, like screens, require little movement and end human contact. Tasks like taking pictures can now be done with a finger touch. Rosen argues that each activity lost takes away a small part of our experience, leading to engineered, homogenized (同质化) behaviors. She also notes that social media, while connecting people, can also isolate them, leading to mass loneliness. She praises the importance of activities like spending time with others, chatting with strangers, and daydreaming, which are becoming less common.
Picking up a smartphone has an opportunity cost; it loses various activities, interactions, and interests. Trading momentary boredom for screen-based pleasure can result in missed insights or recollections that could enrich one’s life. Avoiding social interactions can lead to a loss of social skills.
Rosen is particularly concerned about the shift from handwriting to typing on keyboards. Many people who learned handwriting as children find it tough to write by hand, and younger generations can’t read or write it at all. This shift also means losing aesthetic pleasures and the benefits of small muscular movements that aid in reading and remembering information. Rosen sees the decline of handwriting as a symbol of how thoughtlessly we transition between old and new technologies.
8. What is the case of the harp used to prove
A. Ireland has abandoned its cultural traditions.
B. Tech brings about totally different experience.
C. People’s tastes in musical instruments change quickly.
D. Humans tend to embrace new tech without deep thought.
9. How does Rosen find social media
A They can lift people’s spirits. B. They personalize human experience.
C. They bond people but causing loneliness. D. They speed meaningful human interactions.
10. What can be inferred about handwriting from paragraph 5
A. Typing has more advantages over it. B. Young generations no longer write it.
C. It boosts abilities via physical movements. D. It is being abandoned due to its complexity.
11. What is probably the best title for the text
A. Handwriting Decline in Digital Era B. Loss of Human Experience in Tech Age
C. The Change of Music: From Harps to Pianos D. The Rise of Innovation: Embracing a New Era
D
Many people miss the sweet, rich taste of the tomatoes they ate in childhood and wonder why store-bought ones today have little flavor. The main reason is that modern farming has focused more on producing large amounts than on improving taste. But Chinese scientists have recently made an important discovery that may soon change this.
A team led by Professor Hang Sanwen from the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences has found a way to bring back the delicious flavor of tomatoes without lowering production. They discovered how to genetically “release the sugar brake” in tomatoes, making them much sweeter while still keeping high production. This breakthrough solves a long-standing problem in farming — how to achieve both good quantity and good quality.
The study began with taste tests of more than 100 types of tomatoes. Scientists identified 33 key compounds (化合物) that create flavor. They then examined these compounds in 400 tomato varieties from around the world and carried out detailed genetic research. In the process, they found 49 genes linked to tomato flavor, including two that control sugar levels.
The key discovery is that turning off these two genes could raise sugar levels by up to 30%. More importantly, this change does not affect the tomatoes’ size, look, or production. “This result shows the possibility of using the great genetic diversity found in wild species, which has been partly lost in affected varieties, to improve modern ones,” said Christophe Rothan, a fruit biologist at the French National Institute of Agricultural Research.
The study comes at the right time, as more people are asking for better-tasting vegetables. Thanks to this research, suppliers may be able to offer sweeter tomatoes without worrying about a drop in fruit weight or production. The team hopes that these improved tomatoes will hit the market in the near future, according to the study published in Nature.
12. What can we learn about modern tomatoes according to paragraph 1
A. Their quality has declined in terms of taste. B. They are cheaper owing to mass production.
C. Their popularity increases for their large size. D. They are grown in traditional farming methods.
13 What was the core finding for the scientists
A. Conducting massive taste tests. B. Identifying 33 key flavor compounds.
C. Analyzing global genetic variations. D. Revealing two sugar-controlling genes.
14. Which statement may Christophe Rothan agree with
A. Modern varieties are difficult to improve. B. Genetic diversity in tomatoes is decreasing.
C. Cultivated tomatoes are better than wild ones. D. Wild species offer valuable genetic resources.
15. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text
A. To advertise a new type of tomato. B. To criticize current farming practices.
C. To introduce an advance in agriculture. D. To explain the genetic makeup of tomatoes.

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 a bright Saturday in early March. Dad had recently promised he would “live healthier,” so Mum took him out for a walk in the park every weekend. After a slow, easy morning, Mum came downstairs and found the children glued to a cartoon. She turned off the TV and lowered her voice. “Listen,” she said, “I’m going to do something really special for Dad. If you hear anything, you must keep it secret.”
Lucy nodded at once, but her brother Max frowned (皱眉). “Dad’s birthday isn’t until late April,” he said. “Isn’t it a bit early to make a plan ” Mum paused, then explained that this year mattered more than usual — Dad was going to turn forty. “Forty ” Max said without thinking. “That’s... properly old!” Lucy tried not to laugh, but Mum even didn’t smile. She said she wanted to plan ahead, because she hoped to invite some of Dad’s old friends to give him a big surprise and make him feel truly celebrated.
That afternoon, Mum called Aunt May, whose small café had enough space for a gathering. Aunt May agreed happily. She also said she would bake a big cake and drop by to take some old photos for decorations in the next few days. Mum reminded the kids that Dad hated “troubling other people,” and that was exactly why the surprise needed to be gentle and well prepared.
For the next few days, Mum whispered on the phone, wrote lists, and hid shopping bags in the wardrobe (衣橱). The children tried hard to act normal. But one evening at dinner. Dad suddenly put down his chopsticks, rubbed his temple (太阳穴), and sighed. “I just remembered,” he said quietly. “I’m turning forty in April. Let’s not do anything. I’d rather pretend it isn’t happening.” Mum froze for a second, and the children exchanged worried looks. At that moment, saving them from having to reply, the doorbell rang. Mum rushed to open the door.
注意：
1．续写词数应为 150 左右；
2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Seeing Aunt May at the door, Mum’s eyes widened in alarm.
