Mercor, one of the Bay Area’s hottest AI startups (初创公司), is hiring like crazy. It seeks experts in many fields, such as astronomers, psychologists, filmmakers and creative writers. The catch You have to be willing to train artificial intelligence to one day do your job as well as you can. In 2025, it hired over 30,000 contractors. These white-collar contractors review the output of the large language models that power chatbots and other AI tools.
When Katie Williams, 30, first saw a Mercor job posting for a video editor, she applied and soon landed an interview. She is now about six months into various projects that have involved watching video clips, writing detailed captions (字幕), and rating the quality of videos created by AI. She has mixed feelings about the work. “I joked with my friends I’m training AI to take my job someday,” she says.
The 61-year-old Peter. Valdes-Dapena, an automotive journalist, now spends 20 to 30 hours a week reviewing news articles written by AI. He finds the work challenging and says it has improved his own writing. The nature of the work does produce some internal conflict. He says journalists will always exist — he thinks people appreciate ideas and writing from humans — but he worries AI could lead to more job losses. “I didn’t invent AI and I’m not going to uninvent it,” he says. “If I were to stop doing this, would that stop it The answer is no.”
“Many of the people we work with already see AI as unavoidable in their field, but that doesn’t mean humans will run out of meaningful work,” a Mercor spokeswoman said. “Many of our experts see it as their responsibility to infuse (注入) their knowledge and expertise into the models to ensure accurate and thoughtful outcomes.”
24. What can we learn about Mercor from paragraph 1
A. It is in great need of AI trainers. B. It leads Bay Area’s AI industry.
C. It is developing its own AI models. D. It aims to replace its contractors with AI.
25. How does Peter feel about his work
A. Curious and excited. B. Favorable but uneasy.
C. Uninterested and bored, D. Tolerant but disappointed.
26. What message does the Mercor spokeswoman convey
A. Human work will lose its meaning.
B. AI will cause mass unemployment.
C. Human workers are essential to guide AI.
D. Experts should limit the development of AI.
27. What is the best title for the text
A. Mercor: A Rising AI Star B. Training AI: Self-Replacement
C. AI Tools: A Blessing for Workers D. Job Seekers: New Hope in AI

Who grows our food This seemingly simple question is getting harder to answer in a world where our food crosses borders to get to our plate. Today, only one in seven countries are food self-sufficient across key food groups, so researchers need a global view to understand who farms our food.
The contribution of small and industrial-scale farming to global food supply has attracted much attention and debate. Many believe industrial farming is the foundation of global security. But when we lift the lid on our globalized food system, the story is very different.
By studying production and trade patterns of 198 countries, researchers have found that it’s small-scale farms (typically smaller than 20 hectares), not huge industrial operations, that support people’s daily diets. Small-scale farmers contribute a third of the food consumed in high-income nations such as the UK and the US. Despite small-scale farms making up less than 1 percent of Australian farms, they supply around 15 percent of their food needs. They also make up the majority of the food supply in 46 of the countries studied by the research, meeting the bulk of food needs for 5 billion people every day.
But farmers of small farms often find themselves facing unstable land rights, climate risks, unequal trade terms, and unfair global trade rules. The research, published in the latest State of Food and Agriculture report from the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization, shows that such risks are not only contained to domestic food systems but will cross borders. Food and land insecurity for small-scale farmers means food insecurity for us all.
Safeguarding production from smallholders relies not only on domestic efforts to protect farmer livelihoods but transboundary measures to secure their land rights and access to markets, such as land titles, small loans and living wages. Now that we know who grows our food, we must give farmers equal priority in national farming policy, within and beyond our borders.
28. What does the underlined phrase “lift the lid on” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Uncover. B. Protect. C. Suspect. D. Ignore.
29. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A. The features of industrial-scale farming in US.
B. Small-scale farms’ key role in global food supply.
C. The introduction of small-scale farms in Australia.
D. The specific data on food supply from the research.
30. What can we learn about small-scale farmers from paragraph 4
A. Their land rights are secured globally.
B. They receive fair treatment in world trade.
C. They mainly provide food for local markets.
D. Their sufferings may affect global food security.
31. What is the author’s main purpose in writing the text
A. To explain global food insecurity.
B. To compare two farming models.
C. To explain how to increase food production.
D. To appeal for more attention to small-scale farms.
D
As the world’s appetite for electronic devices grows ever bigger, e-waste is raising alarms. According to a UN report, 62 million tons of e-waste was generated in 2022, enough to fill 1.5 million trucks. Most of it ended up in landfills or was burnt. There is also a shocking economic loss, as an estimated 62 billion US dollars’ worth of reusable resources — including rare earth elements — are lost in the process. Currently, just 1% of the world’s demand for these elements is met by e-waste recycling.
With e-waste rising five times faster than recycling rates, new solutions to the problem are urgent. Aquafade could be one — a new type of plastic that could be used to cover electronics such as keyboards and dissolves (溶解) completely in water in about six hours when the device is no longer needed, making it easier to recycle the most valuable components.
The inspiration for Aquafade came from dishwasher pods (凝珠). To explore further, Wangsaputra and co-inventor Joon Sang Lee teamed up with two material scientists at Imperial College London. They identified a food-safe, biodegradable material — PVOH. But PVOH alone was not sufficient to solve the problem. The main challenge was to make a material that can dissolve in water but is also waterproof (防水). After a series of attempts, they made a special biodegradable coating applied to the PVOH outer shell. This new material — PVOH with the special waterproof coating — is exactly Aquafade. Its dissolving process is simple; once you take off just one screw from the product, that creates a leak, and when you put it in water, it will dissolve after five to six hours, leaving behind milky water and the most valuable electronic parts of the product.
For now, Aquafade is double the cost of regular plastic. But Wangsaputra said that mass production will make it cheaper. Peter Edwards, professor at the University of Oxford, who’s not involved with Aquafade, called it “an interesting development,” but wondered whether the dissolved plastic will persist in the environment and ultimately end up as microplastic.
32. What do we know about e-waste from paragraph 1
A. It has been effectively recycled worldwide.
B. Its annual production has reduced sharply.
C. Most of rare earth elements in it are recycled.
D. The way to deal with it causes great economic loss.
33. What is an advantage of Aquafade
A. It dissolves in water to help recycling.
B. It makes devices work more efficiently.
C. It helps produce cheaper electronic products.
D. It prevents plastic from entering the environment.
34. What is mainly presented in paragraph 3
A. The limitations of PVOH. B. The creation of Aquafade.
C. The benefits of the waterproof coating. D. The comparison of two materials.
35. What can be inferred about the future application of Aquafade
A. It will soon take the place of regular plastic.
B. Its production cost will stay high in the future.
C. It has potential but still faces uncertainties.
D It has gained wide recognition from experts.

阅读下而短文，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。
Ordinary and universal, the act of writing changes the brain. Writing can transform your mental state from feeling desperate and overwhelmed to calm and clear. ____36____
In the 1980s, psychologist James Pennebaker developed a method called expressive writing to help patients process suffering and psychological challenges. ____37____ It turns pain into a metaphorical book on a shelf, ready to be reopened with intention. It signals to the brain, “You don’t need to carry this anymore.”
The state of presence that writing can bring about is not merely an abstract feeling; it reflects complex activity in the nervous system. Studies show that putting feelings into words helps regulate emotions. ____38____ It calms the amygdala, a group of nerve cells that senses danger and causes the feeling of fear. It also engages the prefrontal cortex, a part of the brain that supports goal setting and problem-solving.
____39____ Studies show that writing helps people gain a sense of control and purpose in life. Researchers have long documented how writing is a cognitive activity — one people use to communicate, yes, but also to understand the human experience. As many in the field of writing studies recognize, writing is a form of thinking — a practice people never stop learning. With that, writing has the potential to continually reshape the mind.
Ultimately, resilience (韧性) may be as ordinary as the emails people exchange, the task lists they create— even the essays students write for professors. ____40____
A. Labeling emotions has multiple benefits.
B. This shift is a reflection of mental resilience.
C. Choosing to write is choosing to make meaning.
D. This method creates mental distance from painful feelings.
E. Writing down emotions and thoughts is a complex mental task.
F. Expressing negative feelings by writing brings more harm than good.
G. Such simple acts of writing can build up people’s mental resilience over time.

Okay, none of that actually happened. But that ____43____ would play out in my mind, and it was visualizing my championship moment that ____44____ me from a benchwarmer (替补队员) into a key player.
A little ____45____ is probably needed. As a 14-year-old ____46____ the school volleyball team, I struggled mightily. That first season, I couldn’t serve (发球) the ball over the net, my spikes (扣球) were weak and ____47____ blocked, and I spent most of the game on the ____48____.
“Volleyball is about intentional ____49____ and believing in yourself,” said Coach Miller. “____50____ yourself serving the game-winning point. See the ball ____51____ perfectly in the corner, hear the crowd cheering, feel the ____52____. If you can see it in your mind, you can make it happen in real life.”
From that day on rain or shine, I ____53____ the gym. I practiced serving 100 times a day, worked on my spiking technique, and visualized myself succeeding in ____54____ moments. Eventually, that visualization started to become reality.

I’ve loved watercolor since childhood — my desk covered in paint tubes and sketchbooks. On weekends, I’d paint lake sunsets or backyard flowers. Last year, winning first prize in a school competition strengthened my passion, so I joined the art club.
But the first meeting surprised me. Our new teacher, Ms. Hayes, a famous artist, was as strict as a ruler. Unlike my old teacher who praised every effort, she focused only on perfection. Her first assignment: paint fresh strawberries with real texture (纹理) and color. I spent three nights on it, pouring my energy into each stroke (笔触). Proud, I couldn’t wait to show her.
At the next meeting, everyone laid out their paintings. Ms. Hayes scanned each work. Seeing mine, she frowned and pulled me aside.
“Your painting has no heart,” she said, pointing at the lifeless strawberries, “You mix colors like a rainbow, but you paint what you think they look like, not how they make you feel. Watercolor is about pouring emotion onto paper — that’s what I want you to remember.”
I stood speechless, face reddening. Her words hurt but woke me up — I’d focused on winning instead of loving art. I nodded, and she turned away. I didn’t rush to leave. I looked at other students’ emotional paintings and realized I’d been so proud of my perfect strokes that I forgot my heart.
I took my painting home, tears blurring my vision as grandma’s strawberries flashed in my mind. I had wasted my love for art on empty perfection. Holding my brush tightly, I made up my mind to paint again — not for skill, not for praise, but for the warm love hidden in those berries. Yet a flood of doubt washed over me: would I finally put my heart into it Would Ms. Hayes ever see my true feelings
注意：(1)续写词数应为150个左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
That night, I painted strawberries with the love of Grandma.

It displays student-designed posters covering cyber security, cultural protection and more, with creative visuals conveying national security’s importance.
The exhibition left a deep impression. It transforms abstract concepts into vivid art, reminding us that national security is closely tied to every individual, a vivid lesson beyond textbooks.
I strongly recommend all teachers and students to visit before April 15th. It will broaden your horizons and inspire your sense of responsibility to safeguard our nation.
【答案】
That night, I painted strawberries with all my love of Grandma. Tears blurred my vision, yet I let go of my obsession with perfect strokes and poured my true feelings onto the paper. I mixed soft red and gentle pink, adding tiny spots just like the strawberries we had picked together in Grandma’s garden. Every brushstroke was filled with warm memories: her soft voice, sweet smile, and those joyful afternoons we spent side by side. No longer chasing cold, rigid perfection, I let my heart guide my brush. By midnight, my strawberry painting was finished, brimming with sincere love for Grandma. I submitted it to the school painting competition, no longer merely eager to win first prize.
Weeks later, our paintings were exhibited in the school hall. I stood quietly beside my work, my hands slightly sweaty when Ms. Hayes walked over. The moment she saw my strawberries, her strict face softened into a gentle smile. “This is exactly what I meant — you’ve put your heart into it,” she said softly. Many students stopped to admire it, commenting that the painting felt warm and alive. At that moment, I realized that art is not about skills or perfection, but about sharing genuine feelings. I had come for a prize, but I left with something far more precious — love that lasts a lifetime.
