In 2017, besides a full-time jb, I als cached tw basketball teams. I remember the days when we had a quick meal in the car after wrk and tried t figure ut which sccer game, basketball game, r family event we were driving twards. We just intentinally created family time t cnnect with each ther.
One day when I finished a playhuse fr the kids, three-year-ld Matthew came and asked t help. “Srry, kid, but I’m all dne,” I replied. “Oh n. . .”, cried Matthew. Nw, any three-year-ld crying after missing a prject with their dad wuld be sweet. Crying Matthew lked like a newbrn cat, melting a heart f stne. But what culd I d? I had finished the prject and nw I had t disappint the little by. Suddenly I realized, “he just wants t d any prject with me. Just make ne up!”
I caught tw pieces f useless wd, “Yu see this wd here? I need these tw pieces f wd t be held tgether really tight. Can yu help me?”
A slight smile was n his face, “Yes!”
The result was a pleased little by whse heart was full. What I saw was tw pieces f junk wd. What he saw was the cnnectin with his father. He saw cmpaninship, pririty, wrth and a place t belng t.
Parents always think, “I’ll create family time next Saturday.” But yu dn’t always have t d big things t fill children’s hearts. In fact, the simple act f being present means the wrld t little hearts. Lk at that face! Thse are the eyes f a little ne wh received nthing. And everything.

I am an eclgist frm Zimbabwe, but I’ve been based at the Natinal University f Lesth in Maseru fr mre than 13 years. Lesth is a muntainus inland kingdm in suthern Africa. Its high-altitude (高海拔的) wetlands supprt the Lesth Highlands Water Prject, which delivers water t the Vaal River System in Suth Africa, generating bth incme and electricity fr Lesth.
I study the eclgical balance that keeps thse areas functining prperly: The wetlands t rap water when it rains and release it gradually during dry perids. An imprtant part f this is t map the plants, animals and general envirnmental cnditins, and hw they change ver time.
One f ur team prjects mnitrs the sundscapes f thse areas t identify the animals that live there. We put sensitive recrding equipment in the field fr weeks at a time. This is f great help because, althugh that site is just 180 kilmeters frm my university in the capital f Lesth, it can take up t fur hurs t drive there.
The data we gather are huge, and althugh we d listen t the recrdings, we mainly use sftware t help us analyze the data. We want t cmpare ur recrdings between seasns, between dawn and dusk (晨昏) and between day and night, t understand the rhythms f the ecsystem. We als cmpare ur recrdings frm different wetland types. High-altitude areas are easier t be affected by climate change and, in my view, it is the greatest threat thse prtected wetlands face.
Listening t the recrdings makes me happy because I enjy hearing a variety f sunds, especially the singing f different birds. In a small cuntry like Lesth, there are s many knwledge gaps t fill — it’s ne f the benefits f being a researcher there. I hpe that in the future sme f yu in this classrm will cntribute t this as well.
28．What des the underlined wrd “this” in paragraph 2 refer t?
A．Cllecting water n rainy days.B．Harvesting electric pwer.
C．Studying the eclgical balance.D．Surviving during dry perids.
29．Why is it helpful t leave the recrding equipment in the field fr weeks?
A．It can attract mre animal lvers.B．It can save time n traveling there.
C．It can ffer directins t new drivers.D．It can test the quality f the equipment.
30．What is paragraph 4 mainly abut?
A．What t d with the recrdings.B．Why climate change is a threat.
C．Hw t recrd sunds in the wild.D．When natural sunds are recrded.
31．Where can yu mst prbably find the text?
A．In a news reprt.B．In a speech.
C．In a research paper.D．In a travel guide.
Last year scientists reprted using a neural implant (神经植入物) in a man’s brain t restre his ability t cmmunicate. The man has been partially paralyzed and unable t prduce cmprehensible speech since suffering a severe strke. It is the latest advance in the explding field f brain-cmputer interfaces (接口), r BCIs, which allw cmputers t read infrmatin ut f a living brain.
Brain-cmputer interfaces are pssible because f tw facts. The first is that yur brain cntains hundreds f tiny maps. Each represents specific features f yur physical feelings and intended actins. And crucially, the basic set f brain maps and their lcatins within the brain are very similar acrss individuals.
Thanks t their specialized functins and universal lcatins, brain maps are ideal entry pints fr BCI technlgies. Picking up signals frm a brain map is nly the first step in making a useful BCI. Althugh the lcatin f a brain map is the same acrss individuals, the details — what patterns f activity within the map mean — differ frm persn t persn. In a sense, the unique features f yur specific brain maps serve as a kind f encryptin (加密), safeguarding yur specific thughts and feelings frm wuld-be spies.
That brings us t the secnd fact that makes BCIs pssible. Thanks t advances in machine learning, scientists have develped prgrams that can learn t recgnize key patterns in a vast sea f numbers. They train these prgrams t decde (解码) brain signals by feeding them tns f examples. Researchers develping BCIs ften create such examples by instructing an individual t think specific thughts at specific times, creating a neural curriculum fr the prgram t learn frm.
While the universal features and lcatins f brain maps make them bvius entrances fr BCIs, the unique features f yur brain maps tend t prtect them frm spying eyes. In cases where BCIs have successfully read specific thughts r intentins frm a brain, it has been with the permissin f the individual whse brain was being read. But there are surreptitius ways t train decders n yur brain withut yur knwledge. This can happen if yur neural data falls int the hands f cmpanies with detailed infrmatin abut yur activities.
Like all technlgies, brain-cmputer interfaces are nt necessarily gd r bad. Yet while harvesting the benefits f BCIs, we need t ensure that we have the means t prtect urselves frm crpratins with every mtive t take advantage f this technlgy fr their financial gain.
32．What can we learn abut brain maps?
A．They carry unique messages.
B．They can prcess encrypted signals.
C．Their functins vary frm persn t persn.
D．Their lcatins reveal human thinking patterns.
33．What can we infer frm the passage?
A．BCIs can bst brain signals dramatically.
B．BCIs culd help recver frm brain injuries.
C．Machine learning enables BCIs t read mind.
D．The decding f brain may be affected by BCIs.
34．What des the underlined wrd “surreptitius” in Paragraph 5 prbably mean?
A．Secure.B．Stable.
C．Standard.D．Secret.
35．What des the passage mainly talk abut?
A．The future trend f BCIs.B．The ptential risks f BCIs.
C．The wrking principle f BCIs.D．The general applicatins f BCIs.

Eric, my husband, and I are enthusiastic hikers. We are attracted by the challenge and beauty f muntain trails (小路), especially thse that lead t sites f histrical and cultural significance. Our lve fr hiking began shrtly after we were married, and it has been a passin f urs fr many years.
Last mnth, we visited a natinal park with the intentin f hiking t a lcatin knwn fr its stne text. After many difficulties, we fund nly ne site within the park was pen t visitrs. T enjy the stne text in the muntains, we needed t finish a 2.5-mile path, which started frm the museum f the park. 2.5 miles didn’t sund like a very lng hike. We were bth just in ur seventies but fairly fit, and we thught we culd easily d 2.5 miles. Hwever, the wrker in the museum warned us that the first mile f the path was steep (陡峭的) and rcky and that it culd be very challenging. But we ignred her warning and made up ur minds t g.
“2.5 miles is nt a big deal. Surely, we culd d it if we wear prper bts and start early tmrrw mrning,” I whispered t my husband lightheartedly.
The next mrning, my husband and I gt up early. Befre starting ur hike, we first reached a place that served breakfast. There, we fund a family f three, a yung man named Walter, his wife and sister. They wuld als take the path t watch the stne text. They were warm and friendly and we chatted happily fr a while. Befre they set ff, Walter said that he wuld see us at the stairs, and we thught n mre abut it. Twenty minutes later, we als started hiking.
The trail started well and it was pretty much dwnhill all the way. Then it became mre and mre challenging. The path became extremely steep and was blcked here and there by huge slippery (湿滑的) rcks, which made each step frward an adventure.
注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
As we pushed n, the hike became even tugher.
