Kris Bowers, a musician and award-winning film composer, grew up playing the
piano through Los Angeles Unified’s music program. But it was only a few years ago
that he learned about the people who cared for the instruments that brought him —
and so many other students — joy and emotional support over the years.
The documentary The Last Repair Shop, co-directed by Bowers, puts the
spotlight on those technicians who regularly repair more than 130,000 student
instruments for free — work that has been taking place in a downtown L.A.
storehouse since 1959.
For Bowers, making the film was a full circle moment. He learned about the
work of Steve Bagmanyan, a technician who tuned the pianos in Bowers’ primary and
middle schools. “I was able to thank someone who had a hand in my progress as a
musician,” Bowers says.
Besides Bagmanyan, who is one of four workers, each personal story intersects
(交织 ) with a piece of L.A. and maybe even United States history. Dana Atkinson,
who works in the strings division, shares his story. Paty Moreno, the only woman
technician in the shop, talks about her journey moving to the U. S. from Mexico and
raising her children here — her job in the repair shop helped her maintain some
stability, she says. Duane Michaels fixes the woodwind instruments and talks about
his time on tour with the great rock singer Elvis in the past.
Directing the documentary gave Bowers a chance to mix his love for music and
his city. “Having that deep love for this city and having accidentally discovered this
music repair shop and this program make me extremely proud of the city,” Bowers
says.
The film has already brought attention to the repair shop. There is now a $15
million fundraising effort set up by the LAUSD Education Foundation to help keep
the program running and invest in future instrument technicians.
4. What does The Last Repair Shop focus on
A. The development of a repair shop.
B. The stories of instrument technicians.
C. Bowers’ journey to become a musician.
D. Bowers’ struggle to support piano players.
5. Why was Steve Bagmanyan included in the film
A. He instructed Bowers to be a composer.
B. He was skilled at adjusting instruments.
C. He played a role in Bowers’ musical career.
D. He had an influence on Bowers academically.
6. What does Bowers say about directing the documentary
A. It was a challenging task. B. It was a brave decision.
C. It was a rewarding experience. D. It was a painful process.
7. What is the purpose of the text
A. To advertise a repair shop. B. To honor a famous director.
C. To promote a music program. D. To introduce a documentary.

Consumers’ love for avocados (牛油果) in the USA seems to know no bounds.
From 2001 through 2020, consumption of this fruit rich in healthy fats tripled
nationwide, rising to over 8 pounds per person yearly. On average, 90% of those
avocados are grown in the southwest Mexican state of Michoacán. As with other
foods that have become trendy; such as acaiberries, intensive avocado production is
causing significant environmental damage.
Michoacán is the only place on earth that grows avocados year-round, thanks to
its mild climate, abundant rainfall and deep volcanic soils. Even so, however,
monocultures are never environmentally sustainable. Introducing single, high-yielding
plant varieties leads growers to quit native crops. This makes the local ecosystem
easily harmed by threats such as pest attacks and reduces food options. It also
destroys soils and increases use of agrochemicals. Monoculture also can cause
deforestation. Mexican officials estimate that avocado production spurred the
clearance of 2,900 to 24,700 acres of forests per year from 2010 through 2020. And it’
s resource-intensive: Avocado trees consume four to five times more water than
Michoacán's native pines, damaging water resources for human consumption.
Today, avocados are one of the most-regulated exports from Mexico. However,
these rules do little to address the industry’s environmental impacts. Farmers in
Michoacán continue to clear woodlands, spray agrochemicals, and exhaust aquifers
(蓄水层).
U. S. Ambassador promised that the U. S. would block imports of avocados.
However, this won’t restore local ecosystems. As I see it, expecting small-scale
growers to protect the environment puts responsibility in the wrong place. And
refusing to import Mexican avocados likely would simply lead growers to look for
other markets.
In my view, importing avocados from different areas of Mexico and the world to
reduce the single market share may be the most effective environmental protection
strategy. In 2022, the USDA approved imports of avocados grown in the Mexican
state of Jalisco. This is a start, but Jalisco will follow Michoacán’s lead unless the U.
S. finds more sources and develops more avocado sorts.
8. What is a result of monocultures
A. Improvement to soil quality. B. Resistance to pest attacks.
C. Abandoned field of local plants. D. Pollution of water resources.
9. What does the underlined word “spurred” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Drove. B. Held back.
C. Ended. D. Depended on.
10. Which of the following does the author agree with
A. Making stricter rules on avocado exports.
B. Calling on growers to look for other markets.
C. Increasing agrochemical use for higher output.
D. Buying avocados from more areas and countries.
11. What is the best title for the text
A. Avocados: A Green Choice
B. The Benefits of Avocado Exports
C. The Process of Avocado Production
D. Avocado Planting: A Worldwide Trend

If you’ve ever been pleasant to a rude customer while waiting tables, or
smilingly received a truly ugly sweater as a gift, you’ve participated in a display rule.
This is hiding a negative emotion usually to promote harmony between two
individuals. However, they can have negative consequences for the person
suppressing a negative emotion or opinion.
As daily interactions become increasingly virtual, display rules are changing. A
group of researchers from the University of Tokyo in Japan set out to answer the
questions of how emojis are used to reflect emotions in different contexts, if the same
display rules apply to emojis, and how they affect a person’s well being.
The study observed 1,289 participants who use Simeji, the most-downloaded
emoji keyboard in Japan, and how the emojis were used to either express an emotion
or mask it. The participants answered questions about their subjective well being, and
rated how often they use emojis. They were also given messages with different social
contexts and asked to respond to them as they would normally, and then rated the
intensity of the expression of their emotions.
The study found that texters chose to express more emotions via emoji with
people in a private context or with a close friend. The respondents expressed the least
amount of emotion with higher-status individuals. The most intense expressions of
emotion came with matching emojis, unless the respondents felt the need to mask
their true feelings, such as using a smiling emoji to mask sadness. Only when negative
feelings were very strongly felt did the respondents use a negative emoji. Additionally,
using emojis to express emotions was associated with higher subjective well being
compared to masking emotions.
The researchers would like to expand this study with a larger and more varied
sample, including more males since the Simeji keyboard is more popular among
young women and from different cultural backgrounds.
“First, the highly gender-imbalanced sample may have led to stronger results.
Future research should explore potential gender differences in emoji display rules,”
said a researcher. “Second, Japanese culture’s emphasis on interpersonal harmony and
concealment (隐瞒) of negative emotions may have influenced the results.”
12. Why do people apply display rules
A. To keep the peace. B. To make more friends.
C. To avoid being hurt. D. To create a good impression.
13. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The research findings. B. The research process.
C. The research subjects. D. The research purpose.
14. What did the study find about the participants’ use of emojis
A. It was influenced by different contexts.
B. It promoted interpersonal relationships.
C. It improved their subjective well being.
D. It was a way of masking their true feelings.
15. Why do the researchers want to expand the study
A. To make it known to more people.
B. To achieve more convincing results.
C. To benefit people from different cultures.
D. To explore gender differences in emoji use.

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。
Regardless of the weather or the distance, Paul Wilson would make sure
low-income students in his neighborhood arrived at their college classes on time.
A retired engineer、76-year-old Wilson had been offering free rides to college
students for the past eight years. Since no first had started volunteering his car to the
young people. Wilson had covered an astonishing 64,000 miles, and had countless
pleasant and often humorous conversation with the students he transported to and
from school. The students who he'd driven had gone on to become physicians,
teachers and engineers, but what they'd also got out of their time in school was
finding a role model and a friend in Wilson. Some students even called him
“Grandpa”.
Tina Stern received rides from Wilson for all her four years in college, and the
trips meant much more to her than just free transportation. “It's not just a ride; you're
not just sitting there in awkward silence or with your headphones on.” Stern said. “He
asks you questions and actually remembers the answers, so the next time you ride
with him, he'll check on those things.”
Wilson often went beyond to ensure the welfare and safety of the students. If
they had problems with registration, Wilson was there to assist them. If they ran out of
certain daily necessities, Wilson would drive to the nearest store and purchase what
was needed. For many students, riding with Wilson had allowed them to complete
their education—but according to Wilson, he benefited just as much from the
experience. “I just love driving, and I love these kids,” Wilson said. “It's such a
privilege to be a part of these kids' lives, getting to know them-and hearing their
stories."
One day, Stern came across Wilson and his wife in the hospital, where she knew
Wilson was diagnosed with Alzheimer's Disease(阿尔兹海默症).
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。
“He isn't what he used to be,” his wife told Stem.
Stern and other students volunteered to help Wilson.

46. Dear fellow students,
I have noticed that many of us have developed a habit of relying on AI to solve
problems. While AI can be helpful, it’s important to remember that it cannot replace
critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
I suggest that we use AI as a tool, but let’s make sure we understand and analyze
the information ourselves. We should also encourage each other to discuss and
brainstorm solutions in study groups, which not only enhances our understanding but
also improves our communication and teamwork skills.
Let’s take control of our learning process and not become overly dependent on AI.
The Students Union
47. “He isn't what he used to be,” his wife told Stern. "He's still the same kind
and caring man, but the disease has taken a toll on his memory." Stern felt a deep
sense of sadness and gratitude mingling within her. She couldn't imagine the man who
had been such a constant and supportive presence in her life struggling with his own.
“I wish there was something I could do,” she said, her voice filled with emotion.
Stern and other students volunteered to help Wilson. They organized a schedule
to visit him regularly, bringing him homemade meals, reading to him, and sharing
stories of their lives since college. They also helped with his medical appointments
and errands, ensuring that he and his wife were not alone during this challenging time.
It was their way of giving back to the man who had given so much to them. "We're
here for you, Grandpa," they would say, echoing the warmth and care he had once
shown them. The bond between Wilson and his "adopted" students had become a
two-way street of love and support, a testament to the enduring impact of his selfless
acts.
