A few Thursdays ago was a wrap. For my brief acting career, that is. One of the benefits of having a writer’s schedule in a city like Paris is the ability to say yes to the random opportunities that pop up. When an announcement flashed across a WhatsApp group that a Hollywood comedy-thriller was looking for extras (群演), I thought why not — and sent in a few headshots.
I had little idea of exactly what to expect. Being an extra often involves a lot of waiting and a movie set is a phone-free space. In our case, when we weren’t actively involved in scenes, but still on set without our phones, what else was there to do but… talk to each other There was an intense awareness of many meetings of many eyes. It was gloriously old school. A glimpse into what life must have been like before everyone’s head was leaning forward and staring at the screen while people wait for whoever they’re waiting for.
Among the people I met were an art student from Quebec, an early career Parisian actor and a Franco-Dutch programme coordinator. We chatted, we read, we played charades, we gossiped. In between takes, personalities seemed to pop out of the surprisingly heavy hitting cast, as well as from fellow extras. During one scene, the programme coordinator and I were wandering around in the background, having a conversation. As the scene was shot, and reshot, and shot again, it couldn’t help but result in a quick friendship.
It struck me that around the time I graduated from college, technology seemed to stop bringing us together. Instead, social media grabbed and then destroyed our attention spans. The process of bringing the world to life on screen brought us to life in a way that we normally ignore. There’s an irony (讽刺) here — playing roles in a faked representation of the world brought us, for a time, back to what is most real. And whether I make it into the final cuts or not, for that alone, the early morning wake-ups and the sometimes endless waiting were far more than worth it.

While we race into a future where we outsource (外包) most of our problem-solving to artificial intelligence, the greatest threat is not super intelligent machinery. It’s mindlessly putting too much trust in Big Tech and not enough trust in the power of our own minds.
A philosophy of artful thinking is a good way to avoid this. To think artfully means to solve problems using not just our brains, but also our hands, eyes, and ears, along with our emotions. This approach employs the cognitive (认知的) resources that are spread throughout our bodies but often go unused.
Changing how we think is hard work. And it starts with a mindfulness practice. Accessing artful intelligence requires being mindful of how we think with our body, how we use our limbs (四肢), organs, and emotions to make sense of the world. Be mindful of all the different messages your body is sending you as well as the different roles and functions your bodily actions can play. For example, gesturing in conversations is not just communicative. These movements often help the speaker to sort out their thought process and assist in getting the words out.
Today, Big Tech is pushing a message of artificial-intelligence craziness and fear. What makes you stuck in it It’s seeing the same things wherever you look. Big Tech gives you screens, hoping that your attention will always be attracted by their devices. If you want to find more freedom in this AI-filled world, improve your ability to mindfully shift your attention between different objects or levels of focus. Remember everything is born of a choice.
Artful thinking demands effortful mindfulness to ensure that what we do, what we hope to achieve by using these technological tools, will not weaken our humanity. As Thich Nhat Hanh said, “Mindful living is an art, and each of us has to train to be an artist.”
8. What can we learn about artful thinking
A．It simplifies problem-solving.
B．It focuses on developing our brains.
C．It prevents us from over-relying on AI.
D．It helps promote high-tech machinery.
9. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A．Benefits of artful intelligence.
B．The approach to artful thinking.
C．Significance of being mindful.
D．The challenges of mindfulness practice.
10. What does the author suggest we do in the AI-filled world
A．Enhance the flexibility of attention.
B．Adapt to the rise of AI.
C．Avoid the interruptions from Big Tech.
D．Improve the levels of focus.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text
A．Artful thinking advances big tech.
B．Too much trust in AI harms our minds.
C．Physical actions better cognitive functions.
D．Mindfulness keeps us human in the age of AI.
D
The places inhabited by many species are shifting due to climate change, and these species are mostly tracked by formal monitoring plans and surveys. However, these traditional methods may struggle to spot rapid changes, and sometimes overlook urban areas.
A new study led by the University of Exeter examined posts about Jersey tiger moths on main social media. The posts reveal that the moths are unexpectedly common in towns and cities. The findings demonstrate how social media can help scientists track animal species as they relocate in response to climate change.
“Wildlife surveys tend to be done in rural areas, so their information doesn’t always reflect the vital importance of towns and cities,” said Nile Stephenson, who led the study.
Urban parks and gardens provide diverse habitats where species like the Jersey tiger moth can grow well. By accounting for biases (偏差) and gaps in the data, researchers have developed a method that could be widely used to track many species — especially those that share urban environments.
“Our study shows that plenty of people in towns and cities are interested in wildlife, which has the potential to increase connectedness to nature,” said Stephenson, now at the University of Cambridge. “We also found some people who are very interested in wildlife and photography tend to post images of a wide range of wildlife they see. This provides a database that scientists can use.”
Stephenson said the public can also help by posting in places such as iNaturalist and iRecord, as information from these is already used in research. The team highlighted limitations of using social media, saying it can only be used to complement — not replace — traditional monitoring.
“Because social media is so subject to trends, we would expect to see bias, such as more sightings of species that are being widely talked about,” said Stephenson. “However, we can turn that into a positive. For example, we could improve monitoring of invasive (入侵的) species by making trends around recording sightings.”
12. What can be learned about traditional animal species monitoring
A．It has some limitations.
B．It isn’t backed by science.
C．It is only used in rural areas.
D．It proves complicated to carry out.
13. What does the study find
A．Most online animal images are unreliable.
B．Urban environments are unsuitable for animals.
C．Wildlife appeals to many people in urban areas.
D．Diverse habitats in the wild are under protection.
14. What does Stephenson stress in the last paragraph
A．It’s tough to monitor invasive species.
B．Social media should be properly used.
C．Traditional monitoring is irreplaceable.
D．He is opposed to employing social media.
15. What is the main idea of the text
A．Traditional wildlife monitoring has fallen out of date.
B．The impact of climate change on wildlife is enormous.
C．Urban areas play a crucial role in wildlife conservation.
D．Social media can help track species as climate changes.

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。
I started working out with my personal trainer, Teresa. Months later, my weight didn’t reduce. I wasn’t feeling very motivated.
“Let’s start with something different today,” Teresa said. I thought she was going to show me a new exercise. Instead, she took something small and green out of her pocket. A rubber band (橡皮筋). Teresa took my right arm and pulled the band onto my wrist, a determined look on her face. “This will solve your problem,” she assured me. “Your weight is not your biggest problem,” Teresa said. “What’s really holding you back is you’re always putting yourself down.”
I had grown up constantly comparing myself to others, and I fell short every time. The other kids at my high school were brighter, more interesting and definitely better looking. I explained all that to Teresa while I warmed up on the treadmill. “I know I don’t have a lot of confidence,” I admitted. “But put myself down No! I’m just being honest with myself.”
Teresa didn’t see it that way.” Your negative thinking is a bad habit, and it’s time to break it,” she declared.
The plan was simple. Every time I thought or said something that put me down, I was supposed to pull the rubber band hard and let myself out of that mindset. “Pay attention to how many times you have a negative thought about yourself,” Teresa said as we moved on to the leg press machine. “I think you’ll be surprised at how often you do it.”
Could she be right I knew Teresa really wanted to help me, so even though I thought her plan was kind of silly, I agreed to try Operation Rubber Band. I left the gym and drove home with the green band around my wrist.
A pile of mail was waiting. There was an official-looking letter from my bank. This can’t be good, I thought. I tore open the envelope. One of my checks had been returned because I’d been late transferring money to the account. My cheeks burned when I saw it was the birthday check I had sent to my niece. You really messed up now! How could you be so stupid
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。
I couldn’t stop feeling bad about myself when I saw the returned check.

Seven days later, I went to the gym for my appointment with my trainer.

47 续写范文
I couldn’t stop feeling bad about myself when I saw the returned check. The negative words crowded into my mind again. Suddenly I remembered Teresa’s rubber band rule. I pulled the green band hard on my wrist, and the sharp pain pulled me out of self-blame. I told myself everyone makes mistakes and I could transfer money right away to fix the problem. That night I caught myself thinking poorly of myself several times, and each time the rubber band reminded me to change my thought.
Seven days later, I went to the gym for my appointment with my trainer. I told Teresa how many times I’d pulled the band that week. I realized I used to criticize myself dozens of times every day without noticing. Now I could stop negative thoughts immediately. Teresa smiled and said the rubber band worked as a helpful reminder. I finally understood that true confidence comes from stopping self-denial and learning to treat myself kindly.
