Jesse Blasi farms wheat (小麦) in Pratt, Kansas. He has worked the land for more than 20 years. Jesse and his wife, Sarah, met while they were students at Kansas State University. They have two daughters, Reagan, who is 14 and Avery, who is 12.
As their 20th wedding anniversary (结婚纪念日) got closer, Jesse wanted to do something special. He remembered how another farmer in his area, Lee Wilson, had planted sunflowers for his wife two years before. “I wanted to do something similar,” Jesse said.
Jesse started planning back in October. He used his John Deere air seeder (播种机) and special farming methods to plant two different types of wheat — white and red. Jesse used more than 65 million red wheat seeds to spell out his message.
Keeping this secret was hard work. Other farmers in the area kept calling Jesse to ask about what he was doing in his field. But Jesse kept quiet about his surprise.
When the wheat grew tall enough to show the message, Jesse took Sarah up in a small airplane. From the sky, Sarah could see “Jesse + Sarah 20 Years” written across their field. The message covered half a mile wide and stretched one mile long. Sarah was almost crying when she saw what her husband had done. “That’s Jesse Blasi’s love. That’s a farmer’s love right there,” Sarah said.
The wheat message will stay in the field until harvest (丰收) time this fall. Jesse says it looks best when you see it from 4,000 to 6,000 feet up in the air.
Like this Kansas farmer, we all have unique skills. Maybe we can knit, craft, paint, or sing. When we use them with our whole heart for our loved ones, it speaks louder than any store-bought present ever could.

After 20 years of careful preparation, the Grand Egyptian Museum has finally opened its door to the public. Located just outside Cairo and right next to the famous Giza Pyramids, the $1 billion museum has more than 50,000 valuable ancient Egyptian treasures — that’s a huge number for an ancient history museum.
Building work on the museum started in 2005, with many of its old treasures moved from the century-old Egyptian Museum in downtown Cairo.
In its entrance stands the statue of one of Egypt’s most famous pharaohs (法老), Ramesses the Great. The 3,200-year-old, 11-meter-tall statue used to stand in the center of a roundabout in front of Cairo’s main train station.
From the museum’s entrance, a six-story set of stairs goes up to the main display rooms and a view of the nearby pyramids, which can also be visited by crossing a bridge from the museum.
It opened on November 1, including two new halls for King Tutankhamun’s 5,000-piece collection. It’s the first time all these rare things have been shown together since his tomb was discovered in 1922. The old Egyptian Museum didn’t have enough space to show all the rare things at once.
Egypt’s government hopes the museum will draw more tourists: It welcomed a record 15.7 million visitors in 2024 and hopes for 30 million by 2032. Hassan Allam, the museum’s operator, expects 15,000 to 20,000 daily visitors. “The world has been waiting for this moment… Everyone’s exhilarated,” he said.
8. When did the building work on the Grand Egyptian Museum start
A．In 1922.
B．In 2005.
C．In 2023.
D．In 2024.
9. How are paragraphs 3&4 organized
A．By following space order.
B．By following time order.
C．By making a comparison.
D．By listing numbers.
10. Why did the old museum fail to show all 5,000 Tutankhamun pieces together
A．For its poor lighting.
B．For the lack of money.
C．For security worries.
D．For its limited room.
11. What does the underlined word “exhilarated” mean in the last paragraph
A．Silent.
B．Equal.
C．Excited.
D．Experienced.

When we think about the role of AI-powered robots in our lives, what do we really want them to do Take our jobs or make decisions for us Probably not that either. But what about doing housework OK, now you’re talking! That’s the idea behind LG’s newest creation.
Its human-like CLOiD robot, developed by the South Korean company, aims to make housework “a thing of the past”. It’s part of the company’s plans to move toward a home that requires almost no human labor. This new robot can prepare meals, fold clothes, get things from the fridge and put dishes in the dishwasher. It moves on wheels and works with other LG products in a user’s home.
Some people have simple house robots already, but perhaps not quite like this. It’s got a head, arms, five fingers to grab things, and a body that can tilt (倾斜) to adjust its height between 105 centimeters and 143 centimeters. LG says CLOiD can communicate with humans through spoken language and facial expressions, and learn more about the tasks it needs to finish in the house.
So far, it sounds a lot like the robots we’ve seen in sci-fi movies! But a report points out that while CLOiD might allow you to put your feet up, it might not do anything very quickly. Technology website The Verge says the robot takes 30 seconds to put one item in the washing machine. It takes a long time to fold clothes, too. It’s not clear whether LG is going to begin selling CLOiD anytime soon. Until then, perhaps you’ll just have to ask your children to do housework — or do it yourself!
12. How does the author lead in the topic
A．By mentioning an expert.
B．By giving an explanation.
C．By raising questions.
D．By telling a story.
13. What is the main goal of CLOiD
A．To free humans from housework.
B．To help children with homework.
C．To make decisions for families.
D．To monitor other LG products.
14. What can we know from the report concerning the robot
A．It is highly efficient at doing laundry.
B．Its working speed needs improving.
C．It has been widely used by families.
D．Its height can be adjusted within seconds.
15. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A．How Robots Learn from Humans
B．Why Housework Is a Challenge for Robots
C．A Big Change in the Future Workplace
D．A New Robot Helper for Housework

It was supposed to be the best day ever. My husband, our pet dog Brutus, and I were on vacation in our car. The Wisconsin summer countryside was breathtaking. We sang along to the radio, windows down, laughing. Then everything stopped.
Our car had an oil-pressure problem, but we were confident that we could make it home to California in a week to have it fixed. We were wrong. As we left the scenic Wisconsin Dells, our car shut down and we pulled over, unable to restart the engine.
Accompanied by Brutus, I sat on the roadside worriedly while my husband paced back and forth, trying to contact someone who could help.
At this moment, a local driver in a tow truck (拖车) pulled over. He rolled down his window.
“Need help ” he asked.
“Yes, please!” I almost shouted, relief washing over me. “Our car died.”
The driver got out of his truck. “Don’t worry,” he said kindly. He then walked to check our car with my husband. With Brutus looking at me, I began repeating, “Let’s have the BEST DAY EVER!!”
A few minutes later, I was told that our car needed to be taken to a car repair shop. But we were lucky. The driver knew the owner of a car repair shop that was not far away, and he offered to help us go there.

Can Money Buy Happiness
Our class has heated discussions on whether money can buy happiness. Some students hold the view that enough money can satisfy all our material needs and bring a comfortable life. However, others argue that money cannot buy true friendship, health and inner peace.
As for me, money is just a tool. It can guarantee basic living conditions, but real happiness comes from love, friendship and spiritual satisfaction, which money can never purchase.

The driver hooked up our car, and we all drove to the repair shop. Brutus jumped out of the truck and wandered around the yard. The shop owner came out to greet us. After checking the car carefully, he told us the oil system was badly damaged and needed immediate repair. He apologized that he was busy with another customer’s car at the moment. We felt upset, thinking our wonderful vacation would be ruined.
Then the shop owner made a call to the customer whose car he was repairing. He politely asked if the customer could pick up the car later that day, explaining our difficult situation. To our surprise, the customer agreed generously. The owner started fixing our car right away. After finishing the repair, both the tow truck driver and the shop owner refused to accept any payment. What was supposed to be a terrible day turned into the warmest and most unforgettable experience.
