In 1985, with two young daughters, Roxanne Swentzell, a Native American artist, returned from her studies in Portland to her Santa Clara Pueblo community in New Mexico. Her art was years away from producing real income, so she turned to the land to sustain her family.
“I had this dry patch（一小块地） in the high desert,” recalls Swentzell. "I started making it into a homesite, a farm I could grow crops on to feed my family." To grow corn, beans, berries and grains, Swentzell tapped into the ancient, dry-farming traditions of her people in the southwestern U.S., where sunshine is plentiful and rainfall is limited. These proven techniques-applicable to many other dry regions affected by climate change-are becoming popular again among Native communities.
Initially, Swentzell's use of ancient, high-desert farming was focused on the health of her own family. On her small plot of land, she dug waffle（华夫饼）gardens-grid-like（网格状的）sunken beds with earthen walls that look like a waffle-to keep moisture（水分）and avoid runoff when the occasional rains did come. Terracing on hillsides serves a similar purpose in dry farming; composting（施堆肥）helps enrich the soil.
Swentzell also identified microclimates on her land. A large, well-placed rock would slow the flow of water and provide shade and cooling. The fruit trees she planted and took care of did the same. She watched the sun as it moved around her house, making sure her berry bushes and seeds were planted where they could grow well. “Every place on your land has a microclimate,” she tells Mongabay.
As her passion for desert farming and seed saving grew, Swentzell's desire to inspire her community of 7,000became stronger as well. Swentzell sees the need for such ancient agricultural wisdom to spread further. “This is something the whole world needs at this time," she says. "So, we're waking up to the fact that we need to do something. We know that what we're doing now has worked for centuries before us. And it can work well into the future.”
24. Why did Swentzell return to the land to sustain her family
A. She couldn't make a living by her art.
B. She determined to be with her daughters.
C. She lost her interest in arts.
D. She intended to improve local people's life.
25. What does the underlined word "runoff" in paragraph 3 refer to
A. Trees being washed away.
B. Water flowing out.
C. Houses being flooded up.
D. Walls falling apart.
26. What can we learn about the microclimates on Swentzell's land
A. They were caused by global warming.
B. They were changed by water and plants.
C. They were discovered accidentally.
D. They were used to support plant growth.
27. What does Swentzell suggest people do
A. Expand local community impact.
B. Deepen the study of agricultural history.
C. Popularize traditional farming essence.
D. Abandon modern agricultural knowledge.
C
Robert Campbell, a 68-year-old retired teacher from Glasgow, has lived with type 2 diabetes（糖尿病）for a decade. Recently, worrying blurriness in his vision prompted him to seek a screening for diabetic retinopathy-a diabetes-related eye disease that causes blindness. Traditionally, he would have faced a long wait for a specialist appointment within Scotland's National Health Service.
His local clinic, however, was part of a new pilot program at an AI-powered platform for eye disease called “RetinaScan AI”. The process was simple: a staff member took a photograph of Robert's retina（视网膜）. Within minutes, the system provided an automated assessment, detecting subtle signs of the disease with remarkable accuracy. This initiative effectively skipped the traditional bottleneck, bringing expert-level screening directly to the community.
The technology is built on deep learning. The AI was trained on hundreds of thousands of retinal images previously labeled by eye doctors. Through this process, it learned to identify critical indicators of diabetic eye disease with a consistency unaffected by human tiredness. Its primary role is screening: efficiently identifying healthy patients and flagging those, like Robert, who require urgent specialist care.
“Platforms like RetinaScan AI are game-changers,” explains Dr. Eleanor Reed, a consultant eye doctor. “They don't replace our expertise; they enhance it. By handling the massive initial screening workload, they ensure that human specialists can focus their skills on complex diagnoses and treatment planning, ultimately preventing preventable vision loss.”
The Glasgow pilot has already yielded promising results. In its first six months, the program successfully screened over 5,000 patients, cutting average wait times for screening from 12 weeks to just days. More importantly, it has accurately flagged hundreds of at-risk individuals, like Robert, for early intervention, demonstrating a meaningful impact on patient outcomes.
Robert Campbell's story is just the first chapter. This pilot program paves the way for AI technology to expand globally, reaching millions who need these vital screenings.
28. What problem did Robert Campbell face before the AI program was introduced
A. He was found to have a rare diabetic eye disease.
B. He had to wait long for a specialist appointment.
C. His local clinic lacked the necessary equipment.
D. His eye disease was too advanced to be treated.
29. What is the main advantage of “RetinaScan AI” according to the text
A. It replaces the need for human doctors.
B. It provides immediate treatment for patients.
C. It is cheaper than traditional screening methods.
D. It offers quick and accurate screening in communities.
30. Why does Dr Eleanor Reed call AI platforms “game-changers”
A. They finally avoid vision loss.
B. They treat complex diseases.
C. They manage initial screenings.
D. They work without specialists.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. How is AI Transforming Eye Care
B. Is AI the Doctor's Newest Assistant
C. What Could AI Contribute to Humans
D. Can AI Systems See More Than Doctors
D
These days, institutions and companies love to announce what they're doing to tackle the climate crisis. But in reality, the claims are not always accompanied by real, effective action-a shady practice known as greenwashing. But at the same time, other companies are not communicating their sustainability actions. This phenomenon is known as “greenhushing” and it could be just as dangerous as greenwashing. When organizations tone down their efforts, the broader sustainability conversation can be weakened-and the opportunity for businesses to be drivers of social change could be lost. But why would companies deliberately hide things that they are doing well
Our research has investigated how and why organizations take part in greenhushing. We focused particularly on how this occurs in service organizations. First, we examined the communication strategies of 300 UK hotels engaged in environmentally friendly practices across three channels: hotel websites, profiles（简介）on travel site , and social media platforms. We found that 62% of UK hotel websites do not include sustainability information, with only 2% of social media posts referring to it. Although booking platforms signal the sustainability of hotels that have third-party certifications, hotel websites often don't provide much explanation in this regard.
Next, we uncovered three main reasons for the tendency towards not communicating-or even hiding-sustainability actions. First, managers spoke of reputational risks, highlighting their fear of being accused of greenwashing. Second, managers said they lacked confidence about the effectiveness of their sustainability practices. Finally, many service managers highlighted that instead of communicating good practice, they relied on sustainability certifications provided by third-party institutions to do the talking for them. But consumers don't always understand all these certifications.
To build trust, it would be better for organizations to provide clear and comprehensive information about their specific sustainability actions. The sustainability dialogue needs to be promoted so that businesses have the opportunity to act as genuine drivers of social change.
32. What does the author think of greenhushing in paragraph 1
A. It is a new form of greenwashing.
B. It slows down sustainability progress.
C. It urges organizations to make efforts.
D. It is more harmful than greenwashing.
33. What do the statistics presented in paragraph 2 indicate
A.A rise in the quality of environmental posts.
B. A gap between green actions and communication.
C. A drop in the communication effectiveness of hotels.
D.A contrast between hotel websites and other channels.
34. What may cause companies to avoid communicating their sustainability efforts
A. Fear of unfair criticism.
B. Consumers' low demands.
C. Lack of third-party certifications.
D. Managers' dependence on laws.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Greenhushing: Businesses Understating Sustainable Practices
B. Greenhushing: Businesses Discouraging Environmental Efforts
C. Greenwashing: Businesses Promoting Sustainable Development
D. Greenwashing: Businesses Showing Environmental Commitments

The Right Choice
I had wanted to win the “Student of the Month" award for a long time. My teacher, Mr Clark, said the award wasn't just about good grades, but for students who showed great character, like being honest, responsible, and kind to others, even when no one was watching.
My mom had a good reputation for her honesty in the community, and she always shared the stories behind it. She once said to me, “Good grades could open doors, but strong morals and virtues will guide you through them." So, I took all her words to heart. I worked very hard. I helped my classmates with their homework, and I always followed the school rules.
When Mr Clark announced my name, I was so happy. My best friend, Sarah, gave me a big smile. I couldn't wait to tell my mom.
The award was a small, shiny badge（徽章）. I pinned it to my schoolbag with pride. For a whole week, I felt like I was on top of the world. My mom said she was proud of me. However, something happened. I was looking for my English book in my schoolbag when I found something that made my heart stop. It was Sarah's math competition medal. She was looking for it everywhere last week, even crying because she thought she had lost it forever.
I felt terrible. I remembered that last week, I had borrowed her math book, and the medal must have fallen into my bag accidentally. But if I told everyone the truth, what would they think Would they say I was a thief My parents would be disappointed, and my friends might laugh at me. I thought about just putting the medal in Sarah's desk secretly. No one would know, and I could keep my perfect image. It seemed like the easiest way out.
注意：续写词数应为150左右；按格式作答
Paragraph 1: Not knowing what to do, I found my parents and poured out my story.
Paragraph 2: Influenced by my mom's story, I went to school with a clear purpose.

Dear David,
I’d prefer our weekly podcast to focus on Emotional Outlets.
Nowadays many teenagers face pressure from study and daily life, lacking proper ways to release negative feelings. The podcast can invite students to share troubles and offer practical advice. Besides, sharing feelings in English helps us improve oral expression naturally.
I believe this theme will attract most students and make our podcast popular.
Yours,
Li Hua
读后续写范文
Not knowing what to do, I found my parents and poured out my story. After hearing my trouble, my mom told me honesty mattered more than a perfect award or image. She said hiding the medal would eat away my peace and friendship. Inspired by her words, I made up my mind to return the medal and admit my mistake bravely, no matter what result awaited me.
Influenced by my mom's story, I went to school with a clear purpose. I found Sarah and handed back her medal, apologizing sincerely for my carelessness. To my surprise, Sarah forgave me gladly. Later I told Mr Clark the whole truth. Instead of taking back my badge, the teacher praised my honesty, proving true virtue was the core of the award.
