Several years ag, I tk a summer vacatin in Lecce in suthern Italy. After climbing up a hill fr a panramic(全景的) view f the blue sea, white buildings and green live trees, I paused t catch my breath and then psitined myself t take the best pht f this panrama.
Unfrtunately, just as I tk ut my camera, a wman apprached frm behind, and planted herself right in frnt f my view. Like me, this wman was here t stp, sigh and appreciate the view.
Patient as I was, after abut 15 minutes, my camera scanning the sun and reviewing the sht I wuld eventually take, I grew frustrated. Was it t much t ask her t mve s I culd take just ne picture f the landscape? Sure, I culd have asked her, but smething prevented me frm ding s. She seemed s satisfied in her bservatin. I didn’t want t mess with that.
Anther 15 minutes passed and I grew bred. The wman was still there. I decided t take the pht anyway. And nw when I lk at it, I think her presence in the pht is what makes the image interesting. The landscape, beautiful n its wn, smehw cmes t life and breathes because this wman is engaging with it.
This pht, with the unique beauty that unflded befre me and that wman wh “ruined” it, nw hangs n a wall in my bedrm. What wuld she think if she knew that her figure is captured(捕捉) and frzen n sme stranger’s bedrm wall? A bedrm, after all, is a very private space, in which sme wman I dn’t even knw has been immrtalized(使……永存). In sme ways, she lives in my huse.
Perhaps we all live in each thers’ spaces. Perhaps this is what phts are fr: t remind us that we all appreciate beauty, that we all share a cmmn desire fr pleasure, fr cnnectin, fr smething that is greater than us.
That pht is a reminder, a captured mment, an unspken cnversatin between tw wmen, separated nly by a thin square f glass.
24. What happened when the authr was abut t take a pht?
A. Her camera stpped wrking.
B. Smene asked her t leave.
C. A friend apprached frm behind.
D. A wman blcked her view.
25. In the authr’s pinin, what makes the pht s alive?
A. The rich clr f the landscape.
B. The perfect psitining f the camera.
C. The wman’s existence in the pht.
D. The sft sunlight that summer day.
26. What des the pht n the bedrm wall enable the authr t better understand ?
A. the shared passin fr beauty
B. the need t be clse t nature
C. the imprtance f private space
D. the jy f the vacatin in Italy
27. The passage can be seen as the authr’s reflectins upn _____.
A. a lst friendshipB. the pleasure f traveling
C. the art f phtgraphy D. a particular life experience
C
Endless queues and lng waits at the ticket inspectin desks at China’s majr train statins were the signature(鲜明特色) f the Spring Festival travel rush .Every year，as the cuntry’s biggest natinal hliday unflded，a huge flw f travelers wuld leave staff at the check-in desks facing a dilemma（进退两难的境地）.
But with the installment(安装)f artificial intelligence(AI)in dzens f train statins，including a facial recgnitin system which is able t prcess passenger identificatin within five secnds and therefre speed up the waiting prcess，busy scenes started t becme smething f the past.
When a passenger appraches the camera inside the facial recgnitin system at the statin，it scans his face and then quickly cmpares it with the phtgraph shwn n his identificatin card in real time.If the infrmatin matches，the barrier gates will pen and allw the passenger t g thrugh.
Such use f facial recgnitin technlgy is in line with discussins heard at the recent tw sessins meeting，a key annual plitical event，which fcused n the widespread applicatin f a security netwrk named Tianwang(“Sky Net”in English)currently being used by China’s public security department.
The netwrk，accrding t reprts by the Peple’s Daily，has the ptential t recgnize the facial features f anyne in the wrld and match them n the spt with phtgraphs n a database f criminal suspects.In fact，it can analyze phtgraphic identity s quickly that it can scan every single Chinese face n the planet in just ne secnd，and it wuld nly take tw secnds t scan every face in the wrld，with an accuracy rate f up t 99.8 percent.
Thse are just tw examples that highlight the develpment f Chinese visual AI technlgy，which industry insiders predict culd cntribute t pwerful grwth in the glbal technlgy sectr this year.
28.What’s the authr’s purpse in writing the first paragraph?
A.T explain the dilemma f the staff.
B.T describe the Spring Festival.
C.T infrm readers f the develpment f China.
D.T intrduce the fllwing tpic f the passage.
29.What’s the slutin t the Spring Festival travel rush?
A.Using artificial intelligence.
B.Opening mre barrier gates.
C.Limiting the number f passengers.
D.Increasing mre staff at the check-in desks.
30.What can we knw abut facial recgnitin technlgy?
A.Its applicatin leads t a heated discussin.
B.Its accuracy rate is very high.
C.Its perating speed is nt yet high enugh.
D.Its applicatin is useless t plicemen.
31.What’s the authr’s attitude twards Chinese visual AI technlgy?
A.Depressed. B.Dubtful.
C. Psitive.D.Indifferent.

Perhaps yu think yu culd easily add t yur happiness with mre mney. Strange as it may seem, if yu’re unsatisfied, the issue is nt a lack f means t meet yur desires but a lack f desires—nt that yu cannt satisfy yur tastes but that yu dn’t have enugh tastes.
Real riches cnsist f well-develped and hearty capacities (能力) t enjy life. Mst peple are already swamped(淹没) with things. They eat, wear, g and talk t much. They live in t big a huse with t many rms, yet their huse f life is a hut.
Yur huse f life ught t be a mansin (豪宅) , a ryal palace. Every new taste, every additinal interest, every fresh enthusiasm adds a rm. Here are several rms yur huse f life shuld have.
Art shuld be a desire fr yu t develp simply because the wrld is full f beautiful things. If yu nly understd hw t enjy them and feed yur spirit n them, they wuld make yu as happy as t find plenty f ham and eggs when yu’re hungry.
Literature, classic literature, is a beautiful, richly furnished rm where yu might find many an hur f rest and refreshment. T gain that lve wuld g tward making yu a rich persn, fr a rich persn is nt smene wh has a library but wh likes a library.
Music like Mzart’s and Bach’s shuldn’t be absent. Real riches are f the spirit. And when yu’ve brught that spirit up t where classical music feeds it and makes yu a little drunk, yu have increased yur thrills and bettered them. And life is a matter f thrills.
Sprts, withut which yu remain pr, mean a lt in life. N matter wh yu are, yu wuld be mre human, and yur huse f life wuld be better supprted against the bad days, if yu culd, and did play a bit.
Whatever rms yu might add t yur huse f life, the secret f enjying life is t keep adding.

Evaluating Surces(来源) f Health Infrmatin
Making gd chices abut yur wn health requires reasnable evaluatin. A key first step in bettering yur evaluatin ability is t lk carefully at yur surces f health infrmatin. Reasnable evaluatin includes knwing where and hw t find relevant infrmatin, hw t separate fact frm pinins, hw t recgnize pr reasning, and hw t analyze infrmatin and the reliability f surces. 36
G t the riginal surce. Media reprts ften simplify the results f medical research. Find ut fr yurself what a study really reprted, and determine whether it was based n gd science. Think abut the type f study. 37
Watch fr misleading language. Sme studies will find that a behavir ＂cntributes t＂ r is ＂assciated with＂ an utcme; this des nt mean that a certain curse must lead t a certain result.
38 Carefully read r listen t infrmatin in rder t fully understand it.Use yur cmmn sense. If a reprt seems t gd t be true, prbably it is. Be especially careful f infrmatin cntained in advertisements. 39 Evaluate ＂scientific＂ statements carefully, and be aware f quackery(江湖骗术).
40 Friends and family members can be a great surce f ideas and inspiratin, but each f us needs t find a healthy lifestyle that wrks fr us.
Develping the ability t evaluate reasnably and independently abut the health prblems will serve yu well thrughut yur life.
Make chices that are right fr yu.
B.The fllwing suggestins can help yu srt thrugh the health infrmatin yu receive frm cmmn surces.
C. And examine the findings f the riginal research.
D. The gal f an ad is t sell yu smething.
E. Distinguish between research reprts and public health advice.
F. Be aware that infrmatin may als be incrrectly explained by an authr’s pint f view.
G. Be sure t wrk thrugh the critical questins.
