Grwing up in a least develped cuntry, I was aware f the challenges facing my cmmunity and natin-pverty, inequality, and limited access t educatin and healthcare. These challenges fueled my determinatin t cntribute t psitive changes and reduce the suffering f thers.
In 2018, I came t China t study and actively participated in public welfare activities. During these events, lcal peple ften called me “Yang Lei Feng”, meaning “freign Lei Feng”. Curius, I lked him up nline and discvered a yung sldier knwn fr his selflessness and dedicatin t helping thers. The mre I read, the mre I saw hw his values were cnsistent with the principles I held.
He nce said, “I will devte my finite (有限的) life t the infinite cause f serving the peple.“ Inspired by his belief, I established the Lei Feng Internatinal Vlunteer Assciatin n Lei Feng Day in 2021. Its missin is t supprt children with special needs, assist the elderly, prmte envirnmental awareness, empwer thrugh educatin, and prmte crss-cultural understanding.
In the mdern wrld ften fcused n individual success, I believe Lei Feng’s philsphy f selflessness and cmmunity service feels mre relevant than ever. His life was nt abut grand gestures but rather a series f small acts f kindness that, when multiplied, can create a better wrld.
On Lei Feng Day in 2023, I tk a brave step t spread his spirit beynd China by launching the glbal “Learn frm Lei Feng” initiative. We celebrated the day in five cuntries thrugh discussins n his bigraphy, charity prgrams, and cmmunity service activities.
What began as a visin t prmte Lei Feng’s values internatinally has since grwn int a glbal mvement, nw cvering 15 cuntries. Our effrts nt nly strengthen crss-cultural bnds but als cntribute t building a mre service-riented wrld.

We're familiar with the trappings f nscreen science fictin (sci-fi), many f which generusly expand the pssibilities f real science. But it is nt just a place fr imaginatin: it hlds an imprtant psitin in cntemprary culture, and its influence can be seen in the directin f sme real scientific and technlgical advances.
Onscreen sci-fi is extremely ppular, taking up fur f the current tp five bx ffice hits. It's als central t the histry f film: the mve t narrative film making, which defined cinema as we knw it tday, is widely assciated with the film 4 Trip t the Mn, made by Meliès wh saw the ptential fr creating special effects. A film schlar includes this film amng the “32 mst significant mments in the histry f film”, stating it changed the way mvies were prduced.
Science fictin serves as an inspiratin fr real life. Many cmmn devices were imagined in sci-fi befre entering the real wrld. The classic series Star Trek features several everyday technlgies that seemed unbelievable in the 1960s: vide calls, autmatic sliding drs, and flip phnes (翻盖手机). Amng them, flip phnes are already becming a thing f the past, but the rise f fldable smartphnes evkes the flding screens fund in ther ppular science fictin such as Minrity Reprt r Westwrld.
The influence f particular wrks f science fictin extends beynd technlgy 'and can even shape scientific investigatins. In making the successful sci-fi mvie Interstellar, Franklin, the visual effects supervisr, wrked with a physicist, Thrne, t create better black hle images. This was n small task fr either f them, s they wrked tirelessly tgether. The result prvided new insights n gravitatinal lensing (透镜效应)arund black hles, which was published in tw technical papers after the film's release.
S, the influence f niscreen sci-fi is nt reserved fr bx-ffice takings, but can inspire real changes in science and sciety. Althugh we are nt sure what inventins may emerge frm the screen in future years, we anticipate that they cntinue t prvide fantastic develpment fr ur life.
8．Why was A Trip t the Mn mentined?
A．T define the feature f current sci-fi films.
B．T highlight talents f a sci-fi film directr.
C．T display the ptential f film special effects.
D．T shw sci-fi films' rle in film develpment.
9．What des the underlined wrd “evkes" mean in paragraph 3?
A．Recalls.B．Inspires,C．Abandns.D．Updates.

A．The discvery f a universal thery,B．The better pictures f black hles.
C．The publicatin f scientific articles.D．The cmmercial success f a film.
11．What is the authr's attitude twards sci-fi films?
A．Psitive.B．UnclearC．ObjectiveD．Negative.
A strange sund named “bitwang” was first heard buncing arund the Mariana Islands 10 years ag, and scientists have finally figured ut where it cmes frm.
Cnfirming which creature makes a particular unusual nise isn’t easy: it requires a persn t see and identify the surce at exactly the same time the sund is heard. That’s hw Allen, an cean scientist, and her team finally slved the bitwang mystery. While surveying whales ff the Mariana Islands, researchers saw a Bryde’s whale 10 times. These rarely bserved whales have a vast range acrss much f the cean, making them hard t study. On nine f the ccasins when Bryde’s whales turned up, the researchers als heard the bitwang. “Once, it’s a cincidence,” Allen says. “Twice is happenstance (偶然). Nine times, it’s definitely a Bryde’s whale.”
After identifying the surce, the scientists reviewed years’ wrth f audi (音频) data t figure ut where this specific whale sund had previusly been heard. But the database had mre than 200,000 hurs f such recrdings, making it simply impssible t analyze. Then Allen turned t data scientists wh adpted AI tls t speed up the analysis by transfrming audi data int an image and then training algrithms (算法) t lk fr certain frequencies using image recgnitin. The data suggest that as climate change wrsens, the lcatin f the whales’ fd shifts. S these whales have t travel farther and wrk harder t find fd.
The data-prcessing technlgy isn’t perfect as these algrithms can nly search fr a frequency while whale sunds change ver time. But because the tls are pen surce, ther scientists can use them t discver mre abut whale language. “We seem t be s distant frm, r have n access t, this amazing underwater wrld f sund,” Allen says. “I think it’s abut time that we changed that.”
12．Hw did Allen’s team figure ut the surce f the bitwang?
A．By analyzing ppulatin statistics.
B．By bserving species and habitats.
C．By expanding the range f surveys.
D．By matching sightings and sunds.
13．Why were AI tls applied t the research?
A．T predict results.B．T bst efficiency.
C．T develp systems.D．T transfrm images.
14．What will imprve ur knwledge f underwater sunds accrding t the last paragraph?
A．Accessible creature.B．Shrtened distance,
C．Scientific cperatin.D．Perfect technlgy.
15．What is the text mainly abut?
A．The slutin f a sund mystery.B．The rle f AI in marine sund study.
C．The discvery f a marine species.D．The strange wrld f underwater sunds.
