Shared mobility: Making travel easier for all
In major cities across Europe and the US, shared bikes and cars seem to be everywhere. Yet for disabled, elderly, low-income individuals, or those without a smartphone or credit card, these services are practically out of reach. Such services tend to gather in wealthy urban areas, leaving users largely young, wealthy, and able-bodied.
Shared mobility could be a key part of a more sustainable transportation system. But to be most effective, it needs to include everyone. For-profit shared mobility providers have largely failed to deliver on this, but various initiatives and projects are finding creative solutions to reach under-served communities.
●Buffalo’s E-Bike Library: Organizes training, group rides and educational events to familiarize people with cycling culture and safety, with 71% of members being first-time riders.
●Mobitwin’s car-share service: Prioritizes email-and phone-based bookings over apps to extend reach to a wider share of the population lacking digital literacy, helping them access the service more easily.
● U. S. bike-sharing policy: Provides fare reductions for low-income groups, with cash payment options and non-smartphone access as key measures to broaden adoption, which has shown promise in increasing the use of shared bikes while decreasing the use of personal vehicles.
●Graz’s car-share initiatives: Add wheelchair-accessible vehicles, child seats, and station-based booking to suit diverse users’ trip-chaining needs, such as mid-route pickups and multi-destination trips.
The future of shared mobility relies on making inclusive design a top priority. As Esen K se, project manager at Mpact, puts it, “It’s about starting with people’s needs.”
21. What is the percentage gap between lower and higher income users in Barrier 1
A.3%. B.16%. C.26%. D.71%.
22. Which solution targets Barrier 2
A.Buffalo’s E-Bike Library. B.Graz’s car-share initiatives.
C.U. S. bike-sharing policy. D.Mobitwin’s car-share service.
23. What will shape the future of shared mobility according to Esen K se
A.Tech-based priority. B.Charity-run initiatives.
C.Profit-driven providers. D.User-centered accessibility.

We thought we had everything we could ask for—a lovely home, three healthy kids, two vehicles—and we cherished it all. We spent money as if it would never run out. But then the market took a downturn, and my husband lost his job at the construction firm. The company filed for failure and shut its doors permanently.
We both began searching for jobs immediately, yet there were none available. As each day went by, our anxiety grew, but we kept working as a team to get our family through the tough time. The more we joined forces, the stronger our bond became.
Watching my husband take the blame for our current dilemma was truly painful. I knew full well he couldn’t control the economy, but he kept putting himself down—each bitter word he said dragged his spirits further down. I kept telling him to quit it, yet he appeared determined to punish himself for being jobless.
At last, one afternoon I pulled him aside and said, “We have healthy children and each other. That’s what matters. That makes you a rich man.”
“But what if we lose the house They’ll hate me—you'll hate me,” he replied.
“If we live in a cardboard box on the empty lot across the street, I will be happy—as long as I have you.” I wasn’t just saying it. I meant business. I could see the sense of relief spread over him as his shoulders and neck loosened, and the tightness drained from his body. He pulled me close, and for the first time in a long while, we were able to talk, make plans, and share dreams together. It marked a pivotal moment for both of us as a couple and our family.
We are still struggling financially, but I count us fortunate because we have something that money can’t buy and no one can take away from us.
24. What caused the family’s problem
A.Overspending on daily needs. B.The husband’s unemployment.
C.High costs of raising children. D.A sudden rise in house prices.
25. How did the husband feel about their situation
A.Guilty. B.Confused. C.Hopeful. D.Annoyed.
26. What does the underlined phrase “meant business” in paragraph 6 mean
A.Told a lie. B.Removed a doubt. C.Took it seriously. D.Lived with it.
27. Why does the author consider her family well-off
A.They’ve regained financial stability. B.They’ve preserved belongings.
C.They’ve strengthened family bonds. D.They’ve resolved mental conflicts.
C
The European wood bison population has grown so much as to no longer be considered "Vulnerable" according to the global authority on conservation,the International Union for Conservation of Nature(IUCN),in their latest Red List update.
A century ago,only 50 European bison remained on Earth,and they were mostly restricted to nature reserves.
“The conservation successes provide living proof that the world can set,and meet, ambitious biodiversity targets,” said Dr. Jane Smart,Global Director of IUCN' s Biodiversity Conservation Group in a statement.
Eight of the 47 bison herds have special genes for long-term survival, so scientists need to move animals in and out of herds in order to make healthy genes continue. Establishing greater numbers of separate herds will also help prevent possible losses due to things like diseases or natural disasters.
This led to the creation of a project called “Wilder Blean" where Blean Woods in Kent, England,will receive Dutch and Polish bison to create the first wild herd on the island for 6,000 years.
English conservationists and wildlife managers are interested in the effects bison have on the landscape. As large grass-eating animals, the constant foraging, digging and breaking they do on the forest floor have been assumed to have positive effects on the ecosystem.
Bison kill weak or dead trees by eating their bark or rubbing against them to remove their thick winter fur. This turns the tree into food and habitat for insects, which in turn provide food for birds.
In this way they act like forestry experts, and the Kent Wildlife Trust hopes that this significant species will maintain declining populations of plants, birds, insects, and mammals by way of their unique habits.
28. What has made the European wood bison grow in large numbers
A.Being restricted to nature reserves. B.Being updated on the latest Red List.
C.Being kept under effective conservation. D.Being born with long-term survival genes.
29. What does the underlined word “This” in Paragraph 5 refer to
A.Providing living proof. B.Preventing natural disasters.
C.Establishing nature reserves. D.Setting up more separate herds.
30. What is the attitude of Kent Wildlife Trust towards the project “Wilder Blean”?
A.Supportive. B.Conservative. C.Skeptical. D.Objective.
31. What is the purpose of this text
A.To introduce the various actions of European wood bison.
B.To highlight the importance of setting and meeting targets.
C.To report the conservation successes for European wood bison.
D.To praise Dr. Jane Smart for his contributions to conservation.

Artificial intelligence (AI) models have long surpassed (超过) just creating text responses and images. Now, with only one sentence, OpenAI’s latest text-to-video model, Sora, can turn your words into video with good visual quality while faithfully following your content instructions.
Sora is said to outperform many other existing models with similar functions. The AI model can create videos at suitable aspect ratios (屏幕高宽比) for different devices, such as both widescreen videos and vertical (竖的) videos that we usually see on social media. This allows it to offer diverse products. It also lets users quickly test out content in lower quality before making the high-quality version, which helps speed up output.
Aside from this, its ability to present videos in a realistic and smooth manner is astonishing. Sora can create detailed scenes with several characters, specific types of motion, and accurate subject and background details while generating multiple shots within a single video. Beyond the user’s requests, it also understands how these elements exist in the real world. For example, reflections in the water change as a woman walks by a lake.
Sora’s amazing performance wouldn’t be possible without its helpful assistant, ChatGPT, which transforms simple sentences into detailed descriptions, improving the accuracy of output according to the user’s prompts (提示语).
However, the current model isn’t perfect. It may have trouble accurately showing how things move in a complicated scene and might not get how one action leads to another. For example, if someone eats part of a cookie in a Sora-made video, the cookie might not look like it’s been bitten into. The model might mix up directions like left and right, and find it hard to describe events in the right order. One possible reason is that Sora learns each basic unit of a video, known as a spacetime patch (时空补丁), independently, according to an online post by the Institute of Physics, the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
As of February, Sora is still in the testing stage of development. OpenAI is now inviting cybersecurity professionals to make random attacks on Sora’s system, aiming to test the model’s possible weaknesses and risks. Sora has also been open to some visual artists, designers and filmmakers. Their feedback will assist OpenAI in enhancing the model to better serve creative professionals.
32. What is the main focus of paragraphs 2-3
A.Sora’s evolution. B.Sora’s diversity. C.Sora’s strengths. D.Sora’s techniques.
33. How does ChatGPT contribute to Sora’s capabilities
A.By specifying user input. B.By providing verbal feedback.
C.By analyzing sample videos. D.By enhancing video quality.
34. Why does the author provide the example in paragraph 5
A.To highlight Sora’s potential safety risks.
B.To illustrate Sora’s existing limitations.
C.To showcase Sora’s flawless performance.
D.To explain the concept of a spacetime patch.
35. What can we know about Sora up to now
A.It has been made available to various industries.
B.Its commercial release has been called off.
C.It has exposed alarming security issues.
D.It is undergoing testing and improvement.
七选五
Are you as good at things as you think you are While knowing how competent one is helps make important decisions, research suggests that people are not very good at evaluating themselves accurately. ____36____ Researchers have a term for this phenomenon, the Dunning-Kruger effect.
____37____ They judge themselves as better than others to a degree that violates the laws of math. When software engineers were asked to rate their performance, 42% put themselves in the top 5%. This is not an isolated finding. On average, people tend to rate themselves better than most in health, leadership skills, and beyond. What’s particularly interesting is that those with the least ability often overrate their skills to the greatest extent.
____38____ When psychologists Dunning and Kruger first described the effect in 1999, they argued that poor performers lack the very expertise needed to recognize how badly they’re doing. The Dunning-Kruger effect isn’t a question of ego (自尊) blinding us to our weaknesses. People usually do admit their deficits once they can spot them. That may be why people with a medium amount of expertise often have less confidence in their abilities. ____39____
Meanwhile, experts tend to be aware of just how knowledgeable they are. But they often assume that everyone else is knowledgeable, too. ____40____ When they’re unskilled, they can’t see their own faults. When they’re exceptionally competent, they don’t perceive how unusual their abilities are.
So what can we do First, ask for feedback from other people, even if it’s hard to hear. Second, keep learning. The more knowledgeable we become, the less likely we are to have invisible holes in our competence.
A.But why
B.Do people know how badly they are doing
C.People in various fields tend to be overconfident.
D.In fact, they frequently overestimate their own abilities.
E.They know enough to know that there’s a lot they don’t know.
F.The result is, one way or another, people are caught in an inaccurate self-perception.
G.This effect explains why over 100 studies show people display imaginary superiority.

67. 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。
Bear was not a bear. She was a big dog on the Perkinses’ family farm, a woolly creature with floppy ears and paws like bedroom slippers. She protected the ducks and chickens from being eaten by foxes and raccoons (浣熊) .
She guarded the children as well, watching over them as closely as she did the chickens and ducks. In winter the dog ran alongside the children as they sledded (滑雪橇) down snowy hills. In summer she swam with them in a nearby river.
Bear belonged to a breed (品种) that had long been used by Atlantic fishermen to help with their work, and it had a keen instinct for water rescue. When the children were in the river, the dog would swim in circles around them, barking when she felt they went out too far. She was the perfect farm dog — companion, guardian, protector.
The dog’s favorite among the three children was three-year-old little Mike. They often curled up together. Sometimes Bear would doze while Mike pretended to read to her. Often both were sound asleep, a tangle of dark fur, blond hair, small hands and huge paws. At bedtime, Mike saved his last hug for Bear, his “best friend”.
On a cold winter day, when their parents went out to send a parcel, eight-year-old Martha, seven-year-old Sara and Mike, went to slide on the frozen pond of their farm. Shouting happily, they slid back and forth, their boots gliding easily across the ice. They laughed as they watched Bear’s attempts to stop suddenly, which would instead send her skidding beyond them. Then, tired, the three sat down on the ice, with Bear beside them. Suddenly the ice gave way under their combined weight.
As Bear jumped for shore, the three children fell into the freezing cold water. Screaming, Martha and Sarah struggled to find footing on rocks underwater. Branches from a tree nearby provided handholds, and using every bit of their strength, the two girls pulled themselves to shore.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右;2. 请按如下格式在答题卷的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1: Looking back, they saw little Mike holding on to a broken chunk (大块) of ice, unable to crawl onto it.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2: Seeing that, Bear let out a series of woofs and jumped into the water, heading straight for Mike.

Dear Ryan,
I prefer the three-minute presentation activity rather than the spelling bee.
First, short presentations help us integrate vocabulary, grammar and oral expression, improving our comprehensive English ability. Besides, we can share interesting stories or opinions, offering a great chance to communicate with classmates. Spelling tests only focus on words and lack interaction.
I believe presentations will make our English class more lively and meaningful.
Yours,
Li Hua
六、读后续写范文
Paragraph 1: Looking back, they saw little Mike holding on to a broken chunk of ice, unable to crawl onto it. The ice piece was shrinking little by little in the cold water. Mike cried helplessly, his small body trembling badly. Martha and Sara shouted loudly to comfort him but dared not step onto the thin ice for fear of falling in again. They waved wildly, hoping someone nearby could come to help, yet there was nobody around. Desperate and worried, they suddenly remembered Bear’s special talent for water rescue.
Paragraph 2: Seeing that, Bear let out a series of woofs and jumped into the water, heading straight for Mike. She swam fast through the icy water and gently pushed the ice block toward the bank with her body. She stayed beside Mike all the time to keep the chunk steady. After great efforts, Mike was safely pulled onto the shore. The two girls wrapped Mike up tightly and hugged Bear gratefully. Thanks to the loyal brave dog, Mike escaped the danger unhurt.
