Pwerlifting, a strength sprt where peple try t lift the mst weight pssible, is ften seen as a sprt fr the yung and athletes. But Faith O’Reilly, an 82-year-ld grandma frm Clrad, is ready t challenge this idea. She’ll sn get t shw her abilities at a natinal cmpetitin.
Brn in St. Luis, O’Reilly mved with her family t Des Mines.

O’Reilly did well, even winning sme state champinships. Hwever, she had t mve t St. Paul, Minnesta fr wrk, which resulted in her having less and less time t practice, finally leading her t drp lifting cmpletely.
After she retired (退休) in 2007, O’Reilly rediscvered her lve fr the sprt. She had visited a small twn called Saguache in Clrad with her granddaughter and lved it. S she decided t live there. With mre free time and green landscapes, she started lifting again. She even set up her wn gym with special safety bars, s she can train anytime she wants. Nw, she is amng great lder lifters like 95-year-ld Catherine Kuehn and 81-year-ld Nra Langdn.
O’Reilly believes lifting is gd fr everyne. “It’s gd fr yur bdy. As yu get lder, yu may have prblems with bne density and lsing muscle tne (肌张力),” she says, “s this helps yu stay fit.”
O’Reilly last cmpeted at the 2024 Summer Shwdwn and Team Cup in Clrad, where she was the ldest cmpetitr. “Besides wrking ut, it gives yu the chance t be part f an athletic adventure. The peple here are very pen and friendly, “O’Reilly says abut cmpeting. “Yu make many friends and get supprt.”

When living r travelling in anther cuntry, we ntice the differences between cultures befre seeing the similarities. At first, sme differences are easy t ntice. Over time, hwever, there are sme surprising similarities between hw peple in the UK and China cmmunicate. Indeed, peple in bth cuntries ften cmplain abut having t read what lcal peple really mean, because it is ften different frm what is said.
In the UK, utsiders ften get cnfused when they realize that a persn saying smething rude is actually shwing lve. In situatins like this, cntext (语境) is everything. In China, utsiders must infer mst meaning frm cntext and frm what is nt said, rather than frm what is said. Yu als need t read between the lines. Otherwise, misunderstandings may happen.
Bth the British and Chinese try t avid cnflict (冲突), which greatly influences hw peple cmmunicate. The British will d everything t avid cnflict. Fr example, they will prbably tell the waiter it was lvely even when they are served with pr quality fd. In business, a British business partner wh is deeply unhappy with yur plan will prbably say “there are just a cuple f small prblems.”
Chinese cmmunicatin shws a very similar way f preventing cnflict. They ften avid talking abut challenges, mistakes, r prblems directly. Instead, peple talk abut wrking twards further gals, rather than directly say that the situatin is far frm satisfactry. Chinese peple like t keep a sense f harmny (和谐) within all envirnments, and s avid pen criticism (批评) f each ther. Fr example, instead f saying a persn is rude, a Chinese persn might say he is “very cnfident”. In this sense, the British and Chinese can understand each ther better because bth value harmny.
38.What des the phrase “read between the lines” mean in Paragraph 2?
A. T read every wrd carefully.
B. T understand the hidden meaning.
C. T write between tw lines f text.

B. They stay silent and say nthing.
C. They express their anger directly.
D. They cmplain t a third persn.
40.What can yu infer when a British business partner says, “There are just a cuple f small prblems in yur plan”?
A. He is very satisfied with the plan.
B. He is unhappy with the whle plan.
C. The plan has tw small prblems.
D. The plan can be carried ut at nce.
41.Which is the best title fr the passage?

Educatin used t be dne nly by humans. Teachers gave lessns, checked students’ grades, and managed classrm envirnments. Hwever, the rise f digital technlgy led t the develpment f nline learning platfrms (平台), digital classrms, and nline curses. And when we add AI (artificial intelligence), educatin can be brught t a cmpletely new level. ①
Every student has their wn learning style, speed, and set f strengths and weaknesses. Traditinal educatin systems ften find it hard t meet each student’s needs because f class size, limited resurces, and the ne-size-fits-all methd. ②AI can change that. With AI-driven learning platfrms, students can learn thrugh materials at their wn speed. Fr example, platfrms like Cursera, Khan Academy, and Duling use AI t see hw the students are ding and then ffer cntent, quizzes, and exercises fr them.
③Traditinally, teachers are ften busy with tasks such as grading, lessn planning, and tracking student prgress. AI can take ver sme f these tasks, giving teachers mre time t wrk directly with students. Fr example, AI tls can grade hmewrk, exams, and quizzes much faster than humans. This is especially valuable fr large classes where grading might take days r even weeks. Mrever, AI can help teachers with lessn planning by reading a lt f materials and suggesting resurces that best match student learning needs.
With AI, students wh have truble with language disabilities have mre chances t receive educatin. AI-pwered tls, such as Ggle Classrm and Micrsft Wrd, are develped t supprt students with learning difficulties such as dyslexia and ADHD．④Text-t-speech, real-time translatin, and sign language identificatin technlgies can help students wh face challenges in traditinal educatinal envirnments.
Lking ahead, AI’s rle in educatin will cntinue t develp. As technlgy imprves, we can expect AI t becme part f learning platfrms, making educatin mre interesting and fun.
42.What is the main idea f paragraph 2?
A. AI can help teachers grade hmewrk faster.
B. Traditinal schls are perfect fr every student.
C. AI allws students t learn at their wn speed.
D. Online platfrms like Cursera are free fr all students.
43.Hw des the writer supprt the idea that AI helps teachers?
A. By giving examples.B. By listing numbers.
C. By telling stries.D. By shwing surveys.
44.Where can we put the fllwing sentence in the passage?Mrever, AI tls are making it easier fr students wh can’t see r hear well.
A. ①B. ②C. ③D. ④
45.What is the purpse f the text?
A. T intrduce famus nline learning platfrms.
B. T explain hw teachers use AI in daily life.
C. T shw the imprtant rle f AI in educatin.
D. T discuss prblems f traditinal educatin.

Snw frests make up abut 30% f the wrld’s ttal frest areas. These wnderful wdlands are nt as famus as the Amazn rainfrests, but they are just as imprtant.

In the US and Canada, as many as five billin birds frm mre than three hundred species live in the snw frests in the breeding (繁殖) seasn.
These wdlands perfrm an imprtant jb: helping t take in harmful gases. The gases are given ff by burning cal, il and gas, which can cause climate change. Hwever, snw frests are facing several prblems.
