Many ecnmists predict 2024 will be the time shppers tighten their belts. That desn’t mean peple will stp spending, say retail (零售) analysts. But it will change what they chse t buy. With a slwing jb market, glbal cnsumers are likely t mve away frm mre high-priced purchases and fcus instead n smaller, less expensive treats.
The ecnmic uncertainty means that cnsumers are becming mre discriminating abut their purchases, says Ethan Chermfsky, senir vice president f marketing at intelligence platfrm Placer. ai. “There are the things we decide are necessary, and then there’s anther categry f things that aren’t necessary but that we cnsider affrdable luxuries, he says. This desire fr these “affrdable luxuries” is cmmn in difficult ecnmic times. Sme ecnmists refer t the phenmenn as the “lipstick index”: a small ecnmic increase led by budget-minded cnsumers seeking ut relatively affrdable splurges (挥霍), like small csmetics (化妆品).
Analysts at Delitte say cnsumers will spend n little luxuries like specialty cffees and snacks as well. Additinally, stressed-ut shppers are priritizing small splurge purchases fr wellness and persnal care.
As retailers see shppers turning t little luxuries, they’re ffering mre and mre f them. Target, fr example, has staked a flag in what they refer t as “affrdable jy”, which includes a selectin f self-care and csmetic prducts, alng with wellness-centric beauty prducts. Beynd diversifying their fferings, stres are als bringing in luxury-feeling prducts at lwer price pints t appeal t mre cnsumers.
Ethan says nt every shpper will shift their spending t little luxuries-but even thse wh are still lnging fr the “must-haves” f scial media will als lk t get a deal. They want the feeling f purchasing lwer-priced affrdable treats. T get these gds, shppers are likely t tap int the re-sale market fr designer items at a mre reasnable price. They want things that make them feel gd abut themselves-they just want t d it withut breaking the bank.
4. What can affrdable luxuries be?
A. Inexpensive daily necessities.B. High-end prducts.
C. Reasnably-priced designer items.D. High-priced purchases.
5. What is paragraph 4 mainly abut?
A. The strategies retailers use.B. The jy businesses ffer.
C. The cmpetitin stres face.D. The prducts cnsumers buy.
6. What d mst shppers seek accrding t Ethan?
A. Scial-media deals.B. Wrld-famus brands.
C. Secnd-hand bargains.D. Budget-friendly pleasures.
7. Which f the fllwing is the best title fr the text?
A. Lipstick Index: Where Des It Lead Us?B. Must-have Treats: A Future Spending Trend
C. Affrdable Jy: Will We Fall Int The Trap?D. Little Luxuries: A Driving Frce Behind Cnsumptin
C
The cean is a huge bdy f saltwater that cvers abut 71 percent f Earth’s surface. An estimated 97 percent f the wrld’s water is fund in the cean. Because f this, the cean has a cnsiderable impact n weather, temperature, and the fd supply f humans and ther rganisms. Despite its size and impact n the lives f every rganism n Earth, the cean remains a mystery. Mre than 80 percent f the cean has never been mapped, explred, r even seen by humans. A far greater percentage f the surfaces f the mn and the planet Mars have been mapped and studied than that f ur wn cean flr.
Althugh there is much mre t learn, ceangraphers (海洋学家) have already made sme amazing discveries. Fr example, we knw that the cean cntains twering muntain ranges and deep canyns, knwn as trenches (海沟), just like thse n land. The peak f the wrld’s tallest muntain — Munt Everest in the Himalayas, measuring 8.84 kilmeters (5.49 miles) high — wuld nt even break the surface f the water if it was placed in the Pacific Ocean’s Mariana Trench r Philippine Trench, tw f the deepest parts f the cean. On the ther hand, the Atlantic Ocean is relatively shallw because large parts f its seaflr are made up f cntinental shelves — parts f the cntinents that extend far ut int the cean. The average depth f the entire cean is 3,720 meters (12,200 feet).
It is unknwn hw many different species call the cean their hme. It culd be that mre than 90 percent f the cean’s species are still undiscvered, with sme scientists estimating that there are anywhere between a few hundred thusand and a few millin mre t be discvered. Currently, scientists knw f arund 226,000 cean species. Since the cean is s vast, there is plenty fr future ceangraphers frm all crners f the glbe t explre and discver.
8. Why des the authr mentin the research n the mn and Mars in paragraph 1?
A. T emphasize the wide impact f the cean.
B. T shw hw scientists d space explratin.
C. T prve peple’s deep fascinatin with space.
D. T stress hw little humans knw abut the cean.
9. What des paragraph 2 mainly talk abut?
A. Physical features f the seaflr.
B. Scientists’ discveries abut the cean.
C. Varieties f landfrms n the Earth.
D. Similarities between the land and sea.
10. What can we knw frm the last paragraph?
A Ocean explratin has great ptential.
B. The number f cean species is declining.
C. Ocean pllutin has becme mre serius.
D. Oceangraphers need t d mre t prtect the cean.
11. Which is the best title fr the text?
A. A Big Discvery in the Deep Sea
B. The Ocean: A Mystery t Mankind
C. A Challenging Explratin f the Sea
D. The Ocean: A Vast Hme t Sea Animals

Online learning has changed a lt ver the years. There was a time when learning mstly ccurred when the students and the teachers were in the same place.

Teachers can use Al t analyze students’ recrds and results and give feedback. Sme universities are even using AI t teach.
When it cmes t educatin technlgy, it is clear that sme technlgical advancements were nt directly created fr educatin but have made learning mre accessible. Fr example, ne may nt cnsider scial media as educatinal technlgy.
Hwever, cnsider hw many peple wh have similar ideas have been cnnected and shared infrmatin ver scial media with thse wh wuld nt have met therwise.
This adaptatin f different technlgical tls frm different fields is helping imprve the quality f educatin fr students everywhere.

After many cntinuus days f steady dwnpur, the sun finally came ut n a Sunday mrning. My friend Allan and I decided t play catch in my yard. We were having fun thrwing the ball back and frth.
“Run! Nice catch!” It had been days since we enjyed urselves. Then, I threw the ball t hard and Allan missed his catch. The ball flew like lightning, crssed the yard and hit my neighbr’s windw. We heard the big sund. Crash! Smash! The windw brke int many pieces.
Allan turned pale, and a lk f panic crssed his face. He frze, t scared t mve an inch. Withut a secnd thught, I grabbed his hand, whispering, “Cme with me!” We ran int my backyard and hid behind a stack f hay. It seemed t be a place f safety. Hwever, my heart was still punding hard, as if it were abut t pp.

Obviusly, he heard the big sund, t. He came ut f his huse, with a ball in his hands. It was exactly ur ball! Did he recgnize wh the ball belnged t? With butterflies in my stmach, I breathed deeply. In the meantime, Mr. Jnes lked arund, trying t see wh threw the ball. Of curse, n ne was utside. He gazed the windw fr a while, and then the ball. Finally, he went back int his huse.
A few days later, I saw that Mr. Jnes had repaired the brken glass. He was sitting utside. When he saw me, he waved at me. I felt ashamed as I waved back at him. I knew what I shuld d, but I was afraid t d it.
Later, my mm and I were talking and she tld me abut the brken windw.

Many ecnmists predict 2024 will be the time shppers tighten their belts. That desn’t mean peple will stp spending, say retail (零售) analysts. But it will change what they chse t buy. With a slwing jb market, glbal cnsumers are likely t mve away frm mre high-priced purchases and fcus instead n smaller, less expensive treats.
The ecnmic uncertainty means that cnsumers are becming mre discriminating abut their purchases, says Ethan Chermfsky, senir vice president f marketing at intelligence platfrm Placer. ai. “There are the things we decide are necessary, and then there’s anther categry f things that aren’t necessary but that we cnsider affrdable luxuries, he says. This desire fr these “affrdable luxuries” is cmmn in difficult ecnmic times. Sme ecnmists refer t the phenmenn as the “lipstick index”: a small ecnmic increase led by budget-minded cnsumers seeking ut relatively affrdable splurges (挥霍), like small csmetics (化妆品).
Analysts at Delitte say cnsumers will spend n little luxuries like specialty cffees and snacks as well. Additinally, stressed-ut shppers are priritizing small splurge purchases fr wellness and persnal care.
As retailers see shppers turning t little luxuries, they’re ffering mre and mre f them. Target, fr example, has staked a flag in what they refer t as “affrdable jy”, which includes a selectin f self-care and csmetic prducts, alng with wellness-centric beauty prducts. Beynd diversifying their fferings, stres are als bringing in luxury-feeling prducts at lwer price pints t appeal t mre cnsumers.
Ethan says nt every shpper will shift their spending t little luxuries-but even thse wh are still lnging fr the “must-haves” f scial media will als lk t get a deal. They want the feeling f purchasing lwer-priced affrdable treats. T get these gds, shppers are likely t tap int the re-sale market fr designer items at a mre reasnable price.

细节理解题。根据第二段“This desire fr these “affrdable luxuries” is cmmn in difficult ecnmic times. Sme ecnmists refer t the phenmenn as the “lipstick index”: a small ecnmic increase led by budget-minded cnsumers seeking ut relatively affrdable splurges (挥霍), like small csmetics (化妆品).(这种对这些“负担得起的奢侈品”的渴望在经济困难时期很常见。一些经济学家将这种现象称为“口红指数”：由精打细算的消费者寻找相对负担得起的奢侈品（比如小化妆品）导致的小幅经济增长)”可知，负担得起的奢侈品是指价格合理的名牌商品。故选C。
【5题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“As retailers see shppers turning t little luxuries, they’re ffering mre and mre f them. Target, fr example, has staked a flag in what they refer t as “affrdable jy”, which includes a select in f self-care and csmetic prducts, alng with wellness-centric beauty prducts.

C
The cean is a huge bdy f saltwater that cvers abut 71 percent f Earth’s surface. An estimated 97 percent f the wrld’s water is fund in the cean. Because f this, the cean has a cnsiderable impact n weather, temperature, and the fd supply f humans and ther rganisms. Despite its size and impact n the lives f every rganism n Earth, the cean remains a mystery. Mre than 80 percent f the cean has never been mapped, explred, r even seen by humans. A far greater percentage f the surfaces f the mn and the planet Mars have been mapped and studied than that f ur wn cean flr.
Althugh there is much mre t learn, ceangraphers (海洋学家) have already made sme amazing discveries. Fr example, we knw that the cean cntains twering muntain ranges and deep canyns, knwn as trenches (海沟), just like thse n land. The peak f the wrld’s tallest muntain — Munt Everest in the Himalayas, measuring 8.84 kilmeters (5.49 miles) high — wuld nt even break the surface f the water if it was placed in the Pacific Ocean’s Mariana Trench r Philippine Trench, tw f the deepest parts f the cean. On the ther hand, the Atlantic Ocean is relatively shallw because large parts f its seaflr are made up f cntinental shelves — parts f the cntinents that extend far ut int the cean. The average depth f the entire cean is 3,720 meters (12,200 feet).
It is unknwn hw many different species call the cean their hme. It culd be that mre than 90 percent f the cean’s species are still undiscvered, with sme scientists estimating that there are anywhere between a few hundred thusand and a few millin mre t be discvered. Currently, scientists knw f arund 226,000 cean species. Since the cean is s vast, there is plenty fr future ceangraphers frm all crners f the glbe t explre and discver.
8. Why des the authr mentin the research n the mn and Mars in paragraph 1?
A. T emphasize the wide impact f the cean.
B. T shw hw scientists d space explratin.
C. T prve peple’s deep fascinatin with space.
D. T stress hw little humans knw abut the cean.
9. What des paragraph 2 mainly talk abut?
A. Physical features f the seaflr.
B. Scientists’ discveries abut the cean.
C. Varieties f landfrms n the Earth.
D. Similarities between the land and sea.
10. What can we knw frm the last paragraph?
A. Ocean explratin has great ptential.
B. The number f cean species is declining.
C. Ocean pllutin has becme mre serius.
D. Oceangraphers need t d mre t prtect the cean.

【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Despite its size and impact n the lives f every rganism n Earth, the cean remains a mystery. Mre than 80 percent f the cean has never been mapped, explred, r even seen by humans. A far greater percentage f the surfaces f the mn and the planet Mars have been mapped and studied than that f ur wn cean flr.(尽管海洋的大小和对地球上每一种生物的生活都有影响，但它仍然是一个谜。超过80%的海洋从未被人类绘制过地图、探索过，甚至从未被人类看到过。月球和火星表面的测绘和研究比例远远高于我们自己的海底)”可知，作者在第一段提到对月球和火星的探索，是为了突出人类对海洋的研究和认识很少。故选D项。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“Althugh there is much mre t learn, ceangraphers (海洋学家) have already made sme amazing discveries. Fr example, we knw that the cean cntains twering muntain ranges and deep canyns, knwn as trenches (海沟), just like thse n land.

The average depth f the entire cean is 3,720 meters (12,200 feet).(尽管还有很多东西需要学习，但海洋学家已经做出了一些惊人的发现。例如，我们知道海洋中有高耸的山脉和深深的峡谷，就像陆地上的峡谷一样，被称为海沟。世界上最高的山峰——喜马拉雅山脉的珠穆朗玛峰，高8.84千米（5.49英里），如果它被放置在太平洋的马里亚纳海沟或菲律宾海沟这两个海洋最深的部分，它甚至不会打破水面。另一方面，大西洋相对较浅，因为其海底的大部分由大陆架组成，大陆架是延伸到海洋深处的部分大陆。整个海洋的平均深度为3720米（12200英尺）)”可知，本段主要介绍了海洋学家对海洋的探索和发现。故选B项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“It is unknwn hw many different species call the cean their hme. It culd be that mre than 90 percent f the cean’s species are still undiscvered, with sme scientists estimating that there are anywhere between a few hundred thusand and a few millin mre t be discvered.

(目前还不知道有多少不同的物种以海洋为家。可能有90%以上的海洋物种仍未被发现，一些科学家估计还有几十万到几百万的物种有待发现。目前，科学家们知道大约226000种海洋物种。由于海洋如此广阔，未来来自世界各地的海洋学家有很多东西可以探索和发现)”可知，仍然有很多海洋物种没有被科学家发现，海洋勘探具有巨大的潜力。故选A项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Despite its size and impact n the lives f every rganism n Earth, the cean remains a mystery. Mre than 80 percent f the cean has never been mapped, explred, r even seen by humans.(尽管海洋的大小和对地球上每一种生物的生活都有影响，但它仍然是一个谜。超过80%的海洋从未被人类绘制过地图、探索过，甚至从未被人类看到过)”以及文章内容可知，本文主要介绍了人类对海洋知之甚少，海洋的众多奥秘仍需要科学家去探索研究，所以“海洋：对人类而言是个谜”适合作为文章标题。故选B项。
