It was a typical day and 18-year-old Lilly Baker was on her way to meet friends. She was
crossing the railway when she noticed a frightening sight—an elderly woman in a wheelchair was

When Mammola and Ficetola went to an ecology conference in 2021, they met a scientist with an
unusual complaint. Jennifer Anderson, an expert in aquatic fungi (水生真菌), said that the subject of
her research was not available in emoji (表情符号) form. “If you are doing the important work of
trying to save whales, you can use pictures or images to help you communicate this,” said Anderson.
“If you are looking to save the aquatic fungi, you first must let people know that they exist, and then
describe in words what they look like.”
Struck by their conversation with Anderson and alarmed at how unusual species were ignored, the
Italian scientists set out to find out how well species were represented in the emoji library. The answer
wasn't satisfactory at all: animals were well represented by available emojis but plants,fungi,
microorganisms (微生物)and many other species were not. “Our findings confirm a typical prejudice
in biodiversity(生物多样性) research and a feature of human psychology,” said Mammola. “We
usually feel more caring and sympathetic towards animals because they are genetically closer to us.”
“A good representation of species on social media can arouse interest in unfamiliar organisms,
greatly help publicize the message that biodiversity is much more than just cats, dogs, lions and pandas,
and indirectly help conservation efforts,” said Mammola. “There are an impressive number of
organisms, and all of them play a fundamental role on our planet, even the ones we know less
about.”
Some scientists have taken steps to describe their research on their phone keyboards with images
instead of words. However, according to Mammola, the number of animal species represented rose
from 45 in 2015 to 92 in 2022, yet the number of plants, fungi and microorganisms represented barely
increased.
Anderson said she wanted emojis for organisms like aquatic fungi as reflections of increased
public awareness and indicators of their ecological value. “Having an emoji indicates that an organism
is valued or important enough to be part of daily conversation,” she said.
28.What did Anderson complain about?
A. Difficulty in describing aquatic fungi in words.
B. People's disinterest in studying aquatic fungi.
C. People's unwillingness to save aquatic fungi.
D. Lack of available emojis for aquatic fungi.
29.Why are animal species better represented by available emojis than other species?
A. They are more common species. B. They encourage human sympathy.
C. They matter more to biodiversity. D. They help remove human prejudice.
30.What is the benefit of a good representation of species on social media?
A. Facilitating communication between scientists.
B. Making biodiversity research more satisfactory.
C. Helping people grasp complex concepts of science.
D. Deepening people's understanding of biodiversity.
31.What is Mammola's attitude toward the progress of emoji biodiversity?

Autonomous systems like self-driving cars and robots are becoming more common, and their
integration promises to transform industries by increasing efficiency and safety. However, they often
fail to see and work well in different environments — like rainy days, low light, or complex
backgrounds, because in these cases their sensors are affected. Interestingly, nature may have already
shown how to deal with that.
Now, taking inspirations from cats, scientists have designed a new vision system for robots,
enhancing object detection and recognition. The cat's eye caught their attention due to cats' excellent
vision in both light and darkness. During the day, a cat's pupil(瞳孔) is a vertical slit - like (垂直狭缝
状的) shape that reduces bright unpleasant lights to help focus. At night, the pupil widens to let in
more light, with a surface enhancing the cat's vision by reflecting visible light back. Similarly, the new
system includes a slit - like opening design that helps block out unnecessary light and single out key
objects in bright conditions, and then uses a surface similar to that of cats' eyes to improve visibility in
low-light conditions.
Robotic cameras often have difficulty in spotting objects in busy or complex backgrounds,
especially with changing lighting. The new design successfully makes background objects blurred. It
allows robots to ignore unnecessary details and focus on targets. Scientists also use a brain-like
learning network to help the system better identify important objects. The vision system is more energy
efficient as it relies on a specialized instrument rather than substantial computer processing.
This groundbreaking technology unlocks exciting possibilities for real-world applications,
transforming robotic vision and letting autonomous systems skillfully navigate (有效应对) complex
environments and undertake tasks with great accuracy. From search and rescue operations to industrial
monitoring, these cutting-edge robotic eyes stand ready to complement or even replace human efforts
in a variety of critical scenes.
32. What can be known about autonomous systems in paragraph 1?
A. Their sensor plays the most vital part. B. They keep changing based on nature.
C. Their efficiency needs improvement. D. They perform poorly in bad conditions.
33. How does the new system enhance visibility at night?
A. By absorbing surrounding light.
B. By adopting a reflective device.
C. By narrowing the slit-like opening.
D. By integrating computer processing.
34. What does the underlined word “blurred” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Complex. B. Notable. C. Regular. D. Unclear.
35. Which can be the best title for the text?
A. Cat-inspired solution to robot vision problem.
B. Nature-based technology for nighttime use.

In modern society, getting along with others is like a delicate dance that requires skill, patience
and sincerity. Harmonious relationships not only bring inner peace but also help build a society full of
love and understanding. So, how can we get along well with others?
Respect is the foundation of harmonious relationships. 36 . Learning to respect others’
differences and avoiding conflicts caused by prejudice or misunderstanding are key. As an old saying
goes, “Do not do to others what you do not want done to yourself.” When we respect others, we also
gain their respect.
37 . Many times, misunderstandings and conflicts arise from poor communication.
Learning to listen to others’ thoughts and feelings and expressing your own views in a careful manner
are important. By understanding others' positions with an open mind and expressing your needs gently,
you can avoid unnecessary arguments and enhance mutual understanding.
Tolerance is the lubricant(润滑剂) of harmonious relationships. Nobody is perfect. Everyone has
flaws and shortcomings. When we encounter others’ mistakes, we should not rush to blame but rather
view them with a tolerant mindset. Tolerance is not indulgence(纵容) but a form of understanding and
acceptance. 38 .
Sincerity is the core of harmonious relationships. Be sincere with others, avoid being fake or
pretentious, and treat everyone with a true heart. 39 . Only when we treat others with sincerity
can we achieve true harmony and beauty.
Getting along well with others is an art that requires continuous learning and practice in life.
Through respect, communication, tolerance and sincerity, we can build good relationships with
others. 40 .
A. It can make relationships friendlier.
B. We should treat others like they treat us.
C. Communication may cause a lot of problems.
D. Everyone has their own personality, values, and ways of life.
E. Communication is the bridge to resolving conflicts.

阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
Writing was my passion. I had always been the best writer in my class. But then, the balance of
my little universe shifted — Ethan transferred (转学) to our school.
Ethan was quiet. He seemed lost in his own world, and the other students didn't know how to
approach him. He was often alone, and it was clear that he felt out of place. I didn't pay much attention
at first. But then came the day that changed everything.
It was a writing class like any other, until our teacher assigned us a creative essay. I dove into my
work, confident as always. When it was time to share, I listened politely as my classmates read their
essays, but my mind was already racing ahead to the praise I knew would come my way. Then, Ethan's
turn arrived. He stood up, his voice soft but steady, and began to read. His words painted a picture of
an old, forgotten library, where time stood still and the pages of ancient books whispered stories of
forgotten worlds.
When he finished, the room fell silent. Then, thunderous applause spread across the class. Our
teacher's eyes shone with delight. “Ethan,” she said, “you have a rare gift. With your talent, you're
bound to win the upcoming writing competition.”
The words hung in the air like a challenge. I had always been the star of our literary world, but
now, it seemed, a new light had appeared —— one that threatened to outshine mine.
That evening, I had a talk with my father. When I finished, he sighed softly and said, “Jealousy is
a thief that steals our joy. It's easy to see Ethan as a rival (对手), but perhaps he's just a fellow traveler
on the same journey. Instead of pushing him away, why not reach out? You might discover that his
light doesn't dim (使黯淡) yours —— it only makes the world brighter.” At that moment, I seemed
to realize something.
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。
The next day, I approached Ethan during lunch.
