Standing n the shre f a lake, I can’t help but marvel at the tens r hundreds f thusands f small rcks that surrund my bts. They were all created frm hard surfaces, their edges sftening ver time.
And I wnder, can we learn frm a pile f rcks?
Even the tallest muntains have wrn dwn; nne are as tall as they were 1,000 years ag. And much like a rck, I’ve fund my attitude has sftened and my desire t better understand thers has expanded with each trip arund the sun.
Once I t was a sharp rck cvered in pinty edges. Tday, after decades f the waters f life cursing ver me, my edges are sfter and mre understanding. I’m less likely t judge and mre interested in learning hw we can exist tgether.
But I’m nt a rck. I’m a human being filled with all the drama built int my DNA.
Tw years ag, while traveling in the Pacific Nrthwest, I watched a restaurant wner ask a guy t leave fr nt falling in line with the rules. Nt frceful and nt rude. On the dr read a sign: “Please wear a mask befre entering ur restaurant. We dn’t like it either, but let’s all d what we can.” But the guy tried t argue abut the nte.
I sat watching, understanding bth sides. I’ve been this guy befre, using my yuthful edges t chip away at the wrld. What I lst, hwever, was the ability t grw by lking thrugh thers’ eyes, and thus the pssibility f finding cntent and success.
Yu can fit mre runded rcks in a jar than thse with sharp edges. The frmer lk fr ways t adjust and make rm fr thers; the latter never give an inch t accmmdate thers. Time, like the waters rlling against nce sharp stnes, changes us by washing away ur resistance t seeing the wrld frm anther’s pint f view.
I placed a runded stne int my pcket. Mther Nature is hlding class again.
24. What des the authr cmpare the rcks t?

25. What caused the argument in the restaurant?

B. The wner’s inapprpriate attitude.

D. The guy’s failing t bey the rules.
26. Which best describes the authr’s attitude tward the wrld when he was yung?
A. Respectful. B. Aggressive. C. Ambiguus. D. Tlerant.
27. What des the authr try t cnvey thrugh this text?

Researchers at the University f Exeter in England have crafted a device that emplys artificial intelligence (AI) t detect Asian wasps (黄蜂). AI refers t the capability f cmputers t learn frm experiences and execute tasks swiftly that wuld typically require a significant time investment frm humans.
Asian wasps are cnsidered an invasive species, indicating that they are nt native t the UK and can disrupt ur ecsystem – the envirnment and its living rganisms. These wasps feed n lcal insects and pse a significant threat t hney bees, with a single wasp capable f killing up t 50 hney bees in a day.
The innvative system, named VeI, uses a spnge clth saked with a liquid that attracts wasps. Once the wasps are drawn in, an autmatic camera takes pictures f them. The AI then analyzes the phts t determine whether the insect is an Asian wasp r a Eurpean wasp, which is a native species.
If an Asian wasp is sptted, a ntificatin is sent right away t the researcher’s phne r cmputer. VeI acts as an early-warning system, allwing fr the detectin f any Asian wasps that may have entered a new area f the UK. Its high precisin helps authrities respnd quickly t fllw the wasps, find their nests, and get rid f them befre they can reprduce.
There is grwing cncern amng experts that Asian wasps may have made a lasting hme in the UK, rather than being merely transient r accidental arrivals. Currently, the UK’s way f dealing with Asian wasps depends n peple seeing them, recgnizing them, and reprting them. Hwever, many f these reprts turn ut t be ther kinds f insects, which is nt a very effective way t handle the situatin.
Dr. Thmas O’Shea-Wheller, wh wrked n VeI, said this new system wn’t mistake ther insects fr Asian wasps r miss them when they cme arund. VeI has been tested n the island f Jersey and will be tried in ther places this year.
28. What des paragraph 3 mainly fcus n?
A. VeI’s design and peratin.
B. The effectiveness f wasp traps.
C. VeI’s influence n ecsystem.
D. Traditinal wasp detecting methds.
29. What des the underlined wrd “transient” mean in paragraph 5?
A. Widespread.B. Temprary. C. Frequent. D. Dangerus.
30. Which statement wuld Dr. Thmas prbably agree with?
A. VeI will help manage wasp invasins.
B. VeI requires cnstant human inspectin.
C. The current reprting system is highly effective.
D. The current methds fail t identify Asian wasps.
31. What can be a suitable title fr the text?
A. AI Disrupts the Survival f Insects
B. The Threat f Asian Wasps t Bees
C. AI Technlgy Bsts Wasp Detectin
D. The Impact f AI n Insect Identificatin
D
The bk has a unique status as a symbl f human culture and civilizatin. It is a vehicle fr sharing stries, spreading knwledge, examining the nature f ur extrardinary species and imagining what lies beynd ur familiar wrld. As Carlyle suggests, bks ultimately prvide an invaluable and cmprehensive recrd f what it means t be human.
This vlume (选集) takes a list f fifty f the mst influential bks f all time, putting each int its histrical cntext. Frm ancient game-changers like The Epic f Gilgamesh and The Iliad, thrugh sacred texts and wrks f philsphical reflectin by the likes f Cnfucius and Plat, via scientific essays, histric ‘firsts’ and cultural wrks f enduring impact, these are vlumes that are at nce bth prducts f their scieties and vital texts in influencing thse same civilizatins.
What this selectin isn’t is a celebratin f the literary cann (精品), a reaffirmatin f the ‘best’ bks frm the past. Yu will find n Austen r Dickens here, nr Dstyevsky r Garcia Marquez. There is Shakespeare and Cervantes and Tlsty, but nt because they are smehw ‘better’ than thse thers. Rather, this cllectin aims t select bks that reflect the passage f human histry. Mst nt nly reflect, thugh, but themselves changed hw we think and live. By definitin, they are ‘imprtant’ wrks and, in brad critical terms, ‘great’ wrks t. But this bk is nt cncerned with which wrks are the greatest f all – there are plenty f ther vlumes that try t figure that ut, and gd luck t them.
Unavidably, making a selectin such as this is highly subjective. In selecting fifty titles, we can nly hpe t dip ur te int the vast pl f literature frm ages gne by. In ding s, it is flish t make any claim fr definiteness (确定性). Instead, we are playing a literary game. Which f the fifty chices are undeniable? Which are taking a place better deserved by sme ther wrks? Everyne will have their wn ideas. In the end, it matters little that we all agree. Mre imprtant is that by turning ur minds t the questin in the first place, we might meet sme unfamiliar wrks, revisit sme ld favrites, and gain sme insight and pleasure in the prcess.
32. What is the first paragraph mainly abut?
A. Criteria fr selecting imprtant bks.
B. The types f bks included in the list.
C. The rle f influential bks in histry.
D. Bks as a recrd f human civilizatin.
33. What accunts fr the 50 bks being selected fr the vlume?
A. Their high literary quality and awards.
B. Their ppularity and widespread influence.
C. Their reflectin f human histry and impact.
D. Their inclusin in traditinal literary cllectins.
34. What can be inferred frm paragraph 4?
A. The appreciatin f literature is a game fr us.
B. Literature is t cmplicated fr us t explre.
C. The selecting prcess is subjective and flexible.
D. Literary wrks selectin is based n definite claims.
35. What is the ultimate gal f presenting the list f 50 bks?
A. T seek agreement n literature.
B. T encurage literary explratin.
C. T determine the mst influential bks.
D. T bserve a specific literary traditin.

Olympic medals are amng the mst respected hnrs in the sprting wrld, symblizing nt nly athletic victry, but als the rich histry, fine craftsmanship, and lngstanding traditins f the Games. 36 Are they made entirely f gld, silver, and brnze? And what makes the Paris 2024 Olympic medals special?
Originally, Olympic winners in 776 BCE were hnred with live wreaths (橄榄花环) rather than medals. The cncept f medals as we knw them tday first emerged at the 1896 Athens Games. Hwever, slid gld medals were n lnger awarded after 1912. 37 As a result, the Internatinal Olympic Cmmittee later updated the regulatins regarding medal cmpsitin and design.
Mdern gld medals are primarily cmpsed f 92.5% silver with a six-gram gld plating fr appearance. 38 They cntain at least 92.5% pure silver, and brnze medals cnsist f 95% cpper and 5% zinc (锌). This mixture ensures the medals’ lngevity and makes them cheaper. An Olympic gld medal may be wrth ver £500, but its value t athletes ges beynd its financial wrth.
39 Fr instance, the 2012 Lndn Olympics medals featured the River Thames and Lndn skyline. Ri 2016 fcused n sustainability by using leftver mirrrs and X-ray plates. Tky 2020 medals, made frm recycled electrnics, emphasized technlgical innvatin.
Fr the Paris 2024 Olympics, the medals are particularly distinctive. Each features a hexagn (六边形) with the Paris 2024 lg n ne side and Nike, the Greek gddess f victry, in frnt f the Eiffel Twer n the ther. 40 As Thierry Rebul, creative directr f Paris 2024, stated, “These medals ffer athletes a physical piece f Paris t take hme.”
A. Pure gld is sft and easily damaged.
B. When were these medals first intrduced?
C. Wh is respnsible fr designing the medals?
D. Silver medals, by cntrast, live up t their names.
E. With these symbls, they hnr the histry f the Olympics.
F. Unique t this year, the medals use metal frm the Eiffel Twer.
G. The design f medals reflects the hst city’s distinct style and values.

When I was just ten years ld, I learned that trusting can be risky, especially with water and my father. On ht summer days, we wuld play in the pl. My father culd stand tall, but I was nly able t keep my head abve the water. He wanted me t learn t swim and wuld say, “Put yur head under. It’s nt scary.” But I was always afraid f what was hiding in the deep water. One day, while I was lking at a bird, my father quickly put my head under the water. It was scary at first, but it was ver in a flash, and I was back up, breathing again. It was a memry I never frgt.
When I turned eleven, we went t Miami fr a family vacatin. At the htel, there was a big water slide that lked really fun with fancy twists and turns but als a bit scary because it was s high. My father said we culd try it tgether, and if I didn’t like it, we culd cme back dwn. I was still remembering the time when he surprised me in the pl, s I was a bit wrried. But what I didn’t expect was my father’s light push n my back, and I slid dwn, splashing int the water. It was a big adventure!
I suppsed I wuld never believe my father any mre. Hwever, tw years later, my family went snrkeling (浮潜) in Bermuda, where we gt necessary training and sailed int the midst f the Atlantic Ocean with a lcal cach n a small bat. When we were ready t start snrkeling, my father held nt me at first. I lked dwn and saw crals nearby, but he began t let me dwn int the water slwly. Gradually the water cvered my ankles and I culd feel the cld water. Sn, I culdn’t feel his hands and I was alne in the pen cean. All f a sudden, I cmpletely frgt hw t perate my snrkel, breathe, and swim.

Struggling in the water, I felt a wave f relief when my father swam twards me. He steadied me and instructed me t stay calm and breathe slwly thrugh the snrkel. With his reassuring presence, I gradually regained cntrl and started t explre the underwater wrld, fascinated by the vibrant marine life arund me. Hwever, as we swam back nt the bat, a strng current swirled me suddenly and I was kind f lsing my cnsciusness. At the sight f my struggling, my father tk my hand firmly, trying t lift me t the bat. When I came t myself, I was tld that my father’s knee was cut bleeding by smething sharp and I felt my thrat tightened.
Years later, whenever I’m at hme, I still see the scar n my father’s knee. It's a reminder f the time he dve ff the bat t rescue me when I was caught in a strng current while snrkeling. His selfless act nt nly saved me that day but als reinfrced the depth f his lve and the imprtance f trusting thse wh truly care fr us. The scar is a testament t the bnd we share and a lessn in the pwer f trust and curag
