The first light pushed thrugh the blinds as Elena slipped n her shes. The city was still quiet. Tday was Saturday — but nt a day fr rest. She had signed up t help at Rsie’s Free Kitchen, a lcal nnprfit that made ht meals fr peple in need.
She arrived early. The kitchen was already busy. At a crner table an lder man named Mr. Daniels was already cutting carrts. He gave her a nd and said, “Thanks fr cming.” She smiled, thugh her hands were a bit shaky.
Elena’s task was simple: wash and prepare vegetables fr sup. She watched vlunteers mve arund her — sme stirring big pts, thers puring the sup int the bwls, still mre packaging meals. It was indeed a quiet dance f service.
Twenty minutes in, smene shk the drs. A yung mther walked in with her little kid. Their eyes were cautius. Elena’s heart suddenly tightened. She served them a warm bwl f sup and watched as the child pressed his face int the bwl’s steam. The mther’s eyes met Elena’s. A silent “thank yu” hung between them, heavier than wrds.
At midday, the line grew lnger — but s did the smiles. An lder wman whispered, “Yu didn’t have t d this.” Elena shk her head. “Yes, I did.” The wman tuched her hand and said, “I really appreciate it.” The wrds were simple, but they eched in Elena’s mind.
After cleanup — mpping flrs, putting away plates, wiping tables — the kitchen fell silent. As Elena walked hme, her shes dusty, her shirt smelling slightly f garlic, she felt full in a way she hadn’t befre. Service, she realized, was nt a burden — it was a bridge. A bridge cnnecting different lives thrugh shared humanity. A bridge she felt hnred t help build, ne bwl at a time.
4. Hw did Elena feel when she started her wrk at the kitchen?

A. Kitchen: A Scene f LabrB. Saturday: A Day f Duty

If the sund f a baby crying gets yu red in the face, yu’re nt just imagining things. A new study has fund that a baby’s cries — particularly thse that signal pain — really d cause a ht redness in adults’ faces, perhaps as a way f launching us int actin.
Withut language, crying is a baby’s best sht at getting the help they need frm their caregivers. But nt every cry is the same. Cries that cme frm serius pain are much mre disrdered than the cries f lw-level discmfrt. Scientists call these “nnlinear phenmena” r NLPs.
Caregivers can usually differentiate between cries f rdinary discmfrt and thse NLPs, but it’s unclear exactly hw ur bdies arrive at this higher-rder cnclusin. A team led by Dr. Laurent Mreau frm Jean Mnnet University wanted t knw hw these sunds affect adults’ nervus systems and the bdily effects they cause.
They tested the reactins f 41 participants(21 men, 20 wmen, aged 35 years ld n average)t the sunds f babies crying. These adults listened t a selectin f 23 audi (音频) tracks, recrded frm 16 different babies while they were either experiencing the discmfrt f a bath, r the pain f a vaccinatin sht (接种疫苗) at the dctr. As the participants listened, a heat camera tracked changes t their face temperature. An increase in heat frm this part f the bdy is a respnse frm the nervus system, which manages uncntrllable bdily functins such as heart rate and breathing.
The results shwed that a cry with a higher level f NLP caused a strnger redness respnse frm listeners’ faces, suggesting that these messy sunds are much mre effective at getting the attentin f adults, n a bdily level, than cries with little r n NLP.
“While ur results sund interesting and new, this study remains rather basic and raises a number f questins abut the methds used in the experiment.” Dr. Mreau ntes.
8. Which f the fllwing is an NLP in babies’ cries?
A. Cries ut f the pain f a dg bite.B. Cries ut f bredm with tys.
C. Cries frm restlessness when held.D. Cries frm unwillingness t drink milk.
9. Why did Dr. Mreau’s team cnduct the research?
A. T test if pain makes cries lnger.B. T learn why adults can recgnize cries.
C. T see hw cries affect the adults’ nerves.D. T cmpare men’s and wmen’s respnses.
10. Hw was the research carried ut?
A. By bserving babies’ discmfrt behavirs.B. By having participants describe feelings.
C. By measuring heart rate and recrding breathing.D. By playing audis and tracking face temperature.
11. What may the study team fcus n next?
A. Studying mre baby cries.B. Imprving the study methds.
C. Explring adults’ nervus systems.D. Managing participants’ bdily functins.
D
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is increasingly seen nt just as a tl, but as a ptential methd in envirnmental prtectin. AI can help reduce glbal warming, imprve resurce use, and develp ur ability t deal with envirnmental prblems. Yet with great pwer cmes respnsibility. A recent study discvers that if it is nt carefully designed and cntrlled, the very technlgies fr helping may create the envirnmental harms that have never been faced.
After studying five key areas where AI can be especially effective, the study shws that in the areas respnsible fr nearly half f glbal emissins (排放), AI applicatins culd help t lwer greenhuse gas emissins. But there are trade-ffs. Accrding t the study, a lt f harms have appeared: training large mdels uses a lt f electricity and water; setting them widely increases energy needs; and carrying necessary hardware adds envirnmental ftprint. The study reprt warns these csts might reduce benefits unless actively managed.
While AI fr envirnmental prtectin is a prmising directin, its success depends n gvernance and values. T achieve that gal, several practices are necessary: setting envirnmental impact assessment (评价); building energy-efficient architectures; using renewable energy; ensuring that cmmunities likely t be affected have a vice; and widening scial framewrks t cntain mre-than-human cncerns. Furthermre, the scial impact must be taken seriusly. Different frm the previus discvery, the reprt argues that AI has s far verlked the impact n ecsystems, animals, plants and climate. It suggests using mre reasnable methds t ensure a balance between harms and benefits, wise decisin-making, and the effect f nn-human factrs in management.
In cnclusin, AI has the ptential t be valuable fr prtecting the envirnment — but nly if we cnsider respnsible designs and regulatins that g beynd human-nly cncerns. If we d, AI can strengthen human effrts, nt weaken them.
12. What is the pssible effect f AI accrding t the study?
A. Affecting glbal climate.B. Wasting valuable resurces.
C. Weakening human ability.D. Causing envirnmental prblems.
13. Which f the fllwing has a similar meaning t “But there are trade-ffs.”?
A. Well begun is half dne.B. Every cin has tw sides.
C. Rme wasn’t built in ne day.D. Every clud has a silver lining.
14. What can be inferred frm Paragraph 3?
A. Energy saving shuld be stressed.B. All cmmunities can have a vice.
C. Prper managements are essential.D. Human-nly factrs need cnsidering.
15. What is the writer’s attitude twards AI in prtecting envirnment?
A. Cautius.B. Psitive.C. Negative.D. Indifferent.

But Lily kept ging. She thught nly abut the next branch and then the next, ignring the pain in her arms and her racing heart. Halfway up, she felt the treetps waving at her.

The first light pushed thrugh the blinds as Elena slipped n her shes. The city was still quiet. Tday was Saturday — but nt a day fr rest. She had signed up t help at Rsie’s Free Kitchen, a lcal nnprfit that made ht meals fr peple in need.
She arrived early. The kitchen was already busy. At a crner table an lder man named Mr. Daniels was already cutting carrts. He gave her a nd and said, “Thanks fr cming.” She smiled, thugh her hands were a bit shaky.
Elena’s task was simple: wash and prepare vegetables fr sup. She watched vlunteers mve arund her — sme stirring big pts, thers puring the sup int the bwls, still mre packaging meals. It was indeed a quiet dance f service.
Twenty minutes in, smene shk the drs. A yung mther walked in with her little kid. Their eyes were cautius. Elena’s heart suddenly tightened. She served them a warm bwl f sup and watched as the child pressed his face int the bwl’s steam. The mther’s eyes met Elena’s. A silent “thank yu” hung between them, heavier than wrds.
At midday, the line grew lnger — but s did the smiles. An lder wman whispered, “Yu didn’t have t d this.” Elena shk her head. “Yes, I did.” The wman tuched her hand and said, “I really appreciate it.” The wrds were simple, but they eched in Elena’s mind.
After cleanup — mpping flrs, putting away plates, wiping tables — the kitchen fell silent. As Elena walked hme, her shes dusty, her shirt smelling slightly f garlic, she felt full in a way she hadn’t befre. Service, she realized, was nt a burden — it was a bridge. A bridge cnnecting different lives thrugh shared humanity. A bridge she felt hnred t help build, ne bwl at a time.
4. Hw did Elena feel when she started her wrk at the kitchen?

If the sund f a baby crying gets yu red in the face, yu’re nt just imagining things. A new study has fund that a baby’s cries — particularly thse that signal pain — really d cause a ht redness in adults’ faces, perhaps as a way f launching us int actin.
Withut language, crying is a baby’s best sht at getting the help they need frm their caregivers. But nt every cry is the same. Cries that cme frm serius pain are much mre disrdered than the cries f lw-level discmfrt. Scientists call these “nnlinear phenmena” r NLPs.
Caregivers can usually differentiate between cries f rdinary discmfrt and thse NLPs, but it’s unclear exactly hw ur bdies arrive at this higher-rder cnclusin. A team led by Dr. Laurent Mreau frm Jean Mnnet University wanted t knw hw these sunds affect adults’ nervus systems and the bdily effects they cause.
They tested the reactins f 41 participants(21 men, 20 wmen, aged 35 years ld n average)t the sunds f babies crying. These adults listened t a selectin f 23 audi (音频) tracks, recrded frm 16 different babies while they were either experiencing the discmfrt f a bath, r the pain f a vaccinatin sht (接种疫苗) at the dctr. As the participants listened, a heat camera tracked changes t their face temperature. An increase in heat frm this part f the bdy is a respnse frm the nervus system, which manages uncntrllable bdily functins such as heart rate and breathing.
The results shwed that a cry with a higher level f NLP caused a strnger redness respnse frm listeners’ faces, suggesting that these messy sunds are much mre effective at getting the attentin f adults, n a bdily level, than cries with little r n NLP.
“While ur results sund interesting and new, this study remains rather basic and raises a number f questins abut the methds used in the experiment.” Dr. Mreau ntes.
8. Which f the fllwing is an NLP in babies’ cries?
A. Cries ut f the pain f a dg bite.B. Cries ut f bredm with tys.
C. Cries frm restlessness when held.D. Cries frm unwillingness t drink milk.
9. Why did Dr. Mreau’s team cnduct the research?
A. T test if pain makes cries lnger.B. T learn why adults can recgnize cries.
C. T see hw cries affect the adults’ nerves.D. T cmpare men’s and wmen’s respnses.
10. Hw was the research carried ut?
A. By bserving babies’ discmfrt behavirs.B. By having participants describe feelings.
C. By measuring heart rate and recrding breathing.D. By playing audis and tracking face temperature.
11. What may the study team fcus n next?
A. Studying mre baby cries.B. Imprving the study methds.
C. Explring adults’ nervus systems.D. Managing participants’ bdily functins.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is increasingly seen nt just as a tl, but as a ptential methd in envirnmental prtectin. AI can help reduce glbal warming, imprve resurce use, and develp ur ability t deal with envirnmental prblems. Yet with great pwer cmes respnsibility. A recent study discvers that if it is nt carefully designed and cntrlled, the very technlgies fr helping may create the envirnmental harms that have never been faced.
After studying five key areas where AI can be especially effective, the study shws that in the areas respnsible fr nearly half f glbal emissins (排放), AI applicatins culd help t lwer greenhuse gas emissins. But there are trade-ffs. Accrding t the study, a lt f harms have appeared: training large mdels uses a lt f electricity and water; setting them widely increases energy needs; and carrying necessary hardware adds envirnmental ftprint. The study reprt warns these csts might reduce benefits unless actively managed.
While AI fr envirnmental prtectin is a prmising directin, its success depends n gvernance and values. T achieve that gal, several practices are necessary: setting envirnmental impact assessment (评价); building energy-efficient architectures; using renewable energy; ensuring that cmmunities likely t be affected have a vice; and widening scial framewrks t cntain mre-than-human cncerns. Furthermre, the scial impact must be taken seriusly. Different frm the previus discvery, the reprt argues that AI has s far verlked the impact n ecsystems, animals, plants and climate. It suggests using mre reasnable methds t ensure a balance between harms and benefits, wise decisin-making, and the effect f nn-human factrs in management.
In cnclusin, AI has the ptential t be valuable fr prtecting the envirnment — but nly if we cnsider respnsible designs and regulatins that g beynd human-nly cncerns. If we d, AI can strengthen human effrts, nt weaken them.
12. What is the pssible effect f AI accrding t the study?
A. Affecting glbal climate.B. Wasting valuable resurces.
C. Weakening human ability.D. Causing envirnmental prblems.
13. Which f the fllwing has a similar meaning t “But there are trade-ffs.”?
A. Well begun is half dne.B. Every cin has tw sides.
C. Rme wasn’t built in ne day.D. Every clud has a silver lining.
14. What can be inferred frm Paragraph 3?
A. Energy saving shuld be stressed.B. All cmmunities can have a vice.
C. Prper managements are essential.D. Human-nly factrs need cnsidering.
15. What is the writer’s attitude twards AI in prtecting envirnment?
A. Cautius.B. Psitive.C. Negative.D. Indifferent.

In the quiet twn f Willwbrk, where autumn leaves turned the streets gld, lived a yung girl named Lily. At furteen, she was neither the tallest nr the mst athletic girl in her class, but her spirit burned brighter than any campfire under the starry sky. Lily had a dream — a dream t climb the ancient ak tree in her grandmther’s garden, a tree s tall that it seemed t tuch the heavens. This tree, knwn as the “Guardian (守护者) f Willwbrk”, had std fr centuries. Its branches were a silent witness t cuntless stries f victry and defeat.
Lily’s great interest in the tree began when she was just a little girl. She wuld sit beneath its large base, staring up at the astnishing heights, imagining resting amng the leaves, feeling the wind tell secrets in her ear. But every time she tried t climb, fear wuld hld her heart fast, and she wuld draw back, prmising herself she’d try again tmrrw.
One cld mrning in early Octber, Lily decided that tmrrw had finally arrived. She determined nt t let anything anny her. Her best friend, Max, a by with a talent fr adventure and a heart as brave as a lin, accmpanied her. Max had climbed the Guardian cuntless times, but he was never tired f watching thers vercme their fears.
“Ready?” Max asked, as they std at the base f the tree.
Lily ndded, her knees shaking slightly. She tk a deep breath, reached fr the first big branch, and pulled herself up. The tree was rugh against her hands, and her muscles hurt with every mve. But Lily kept ging. She thught nly abut the next branch and then the next, ignring the pain in her arms and her racing heart. Halfway up, she felt the treetps waving at her.
