When I was little, my dad would let me sit beside him on the porch while he painted. He would tell me how the
cow by itself is just a cow, and the meadow by itself is just grass and flowers, and the sun peeking through the trees is
just a beam of light, but put them all together and you’ve got magic.
I understood what he was saying, but I’ve never felt what he was saying until one day when I was up in the
sycamore tree to rescue a kite stuck in the branches. It was a long way up, but I thought I’d give it a shot. I started
climbing. Then I looked down. And suddenly I got dizzy and weak. I was miles off the ground! But the kite was still
beyond my reach. I caught my breath and forced myself to concentrate on the kite as I climbed up.
When I had the kite free, I needed a minute to rest. That’s when the fear of being up so high began to lift, and in
its place came the most amazing feeling that I was flying. Just soaring above the earth, sailing among the clouds.
Then I began to notice how wonderful the breeze smelled. It seemed like sunshine and wild grass and rain! I
couldn’t stop breathing it in, filling my lungs again and again with the sweetest smell I’d ever known.
I never got over the view. I kept thinking of what it felt like to be up so high in that tree. I wanted to see it, to feel
it, again. And again.
It wasn’t long before I wasn’t afraid of being up so high and found the spot that became my spot. I could sit there
for hours, just looking out at the world. Sunsets were amazing. Some days they’d be purple and pink, some days they’d
be a blazing orange, setting fire to clouds across the horizon.
It was on a day like that when my father’s notion (观念) moved from my head to my heart. The view from my
sycamore was more than rooftops and clouds and wind and colors combined.
And I started marveling (惊奇) at how I was feeling both humble and majestic. How was that possible? How
could I be so full of peace and full of wonder?
It was magic.
24. Why did the author climb up the sycamore tree?
A. To play in the tree.
B. To get a trapped kite.
C. To prove her courage.
D. To practice climbing skills.

（新热点）NASA’s spacecraft Dart hit an asteroid (小行星) 11.3 million kilometers away at a speed, changing
the asteroid’s orbit and lowered its cycle period by 15 minutes, the space organization announced on Monday.
Some said the move shows the world might now be able to prevent asteroids—the kind that made the dinosaurs
extinct—from hitting the Earth. The asteroid that was controlled belonged to a double-asteroid system. It had a 160-
meter diameter while the other asteroid’s diameter is over 500 meters. The bigger asteroid can be compared to the one
that ended the dinosaur era 67 million years ago. A hit from an asteroid that size can cause unimaginable destruction.
However, it is too early to assert that the world has gained the ability to prevent asteroids from hitting us. The
asteroid that was controlled was only 160 meters in size. Its cycle period was changed, without changing its orbit
significantly. It is still not clear if the orbit of a much larger asteroid headed toward the Earth can be changed
successfully.
In brief, NASA’s success in changing the course of a harmful asteroid is definitely praiseworthy, but much more
needs to be done before we can say the world’s security from some unpredictable asteroid is guaranteed.
It should be noted that changing the orbit of an asteroid involves more than just sending an object into space and
commanding it to hit the asteroid. While it is hard enough to hit an asteroid, it is even more difficult to lock onto one
in the first place. It means having the ability to observe approaching asteroids, measuring their respective speeds, and
deciding which ones might pose a danger to the Earth.
Therefore, there’s more to Dart hitting the asteroid than meets the eye. And these are key areas where global
scientists need to work harder in the future.
28. What was the latest news about NASA?
A. Its new program failed.
B. Its manned spaceship hit an asteroid.
C. Its spacecraft changed an asteroid’s orbit.
D. Its spacecraft saved the earth from being destroyed.
29. What can we learn about the asteroid that was hit?
A. It was comparatively small in size.
B. Its orbit was changed significantly.
C. It travelled at a higher speed than before.
D. It was powerful enough to end dinosaur era.
30. What is the author’s attitude toward using spacecrafts to change the asteroids orbits?
A. Neutral.
B. Optimistic.
C. Pessimistic.
D. Not mentioned.

（新题材）Researchers from the University of Buenos Aires have successfully used a robotic tutor to teach the
male chingolo, a kind of small bird in South America, a song that was once part of the species’ culture but had been
lost for more than half a century.
Male chingolos learn their unique, two-second melody from adult males. “It is a distinctive song — like a
fingerprint, but learned,” says one of the researchers. “It serves to attract females and protect territory. It is the bird’s
way of saying, “This is me, and here I am.” However, urbanization and habitat loss have broken this learning chain,
causing local song “dialects” to disappear.
Driven by this problem, researchers took on a pioneering task: bringing back a song that had disappeared from
the wild — known only from a musical record made in the 1960s — to a population of chingolos.
Using physics-based modeling of the bird’s vocal tract (声道) , the team first created an accurate artificial version
of the lost song. They then engineered this model into a physical device designed to broadcast the forgotten melody
— a “robotic tutor.” This artificial song was introduced to the chingolos in the park during their critical learning period
from October to February. The sessions took place during peak singing hours and were limited to a maximum of eight
hours. There were random pauses (停顿) in between so that the birds interpreted the playback from the three devices
placed in the area as a real exchange, as if these devices were responding to each other. This stimulated the birds’ vocal
responses.
The results were impressive. Young chingolos learned and adopted the song, though they added their own
population’s “accent” to the final trill (颤音) , which showed that their singing is shaped by learned behaviors and
inborn characteristics.
“This is about preserving not just genetic, but cultural biodiversity,” says another researcher. The team is now
developing AI systems to automatically identify individual bird songs and planning to study cultural spread in bird
populations to ensure that bird culture is not lost again.
31. Why did the researchers teach the birds the song?
A. To save an endangered species.
B. To study the birds’ brain structure.
C. To develop new robotic devices.
D. To preserve the birds’ cultural heritage.

（新题材）
Brand New You
We’re always told that no one likes a show-off, but a little bit of boasting (夸耀) does us all the world of good.
Once a year I teach a class on building personal brand to a group of women in the creative industries. At the start
I ask each of the attendees how they feel about the phrase “personal brand”. ____35___. Most of them will tell me it
feels too much like boasting. By the end of the session, however, there’s a change in mood and it always comes down
to one key point that I think everyone should know. So I’m sharing it here!
It’s really quite simple: acknowledging your strengths does not mean you boast yourself. ____36____. But then
we do an exercise that proves my point. I put the women in pairs and give them five minutes each to talk about things
they love and are good at. When I give the instructions I am greeted by looks of horror. Five minutes?! Only talking
about themselves?! What if the other person thinks they’re boasting?
____37____. So is sharing it with others. And yet it’s so lovely to hear someone else share their passion. The
room is filled with connection, laughter and joy. And so I tell them, and now you, if you only take one thing away
from this workshop let it be this: sharing what you love and are good at-your passion-with someone else, never comes
across as boasting.____38____.
And if you want to feel really great today, ask someone to share what they love and are good at with you. If they
only talk about what they love, encourage them to tell you why they’re good at it. ____39____. Maybe we’ll all feel
better for it.
A. It is a form of connection and a gift
B. Almost everyone feels uneasy about it
C. Many people are impressed by your passion
D. Boast your strengths by building your personal brand
E. Try to create a “boasting culture” in our pride-avoidant society
F. When I say this in the workshop, there are always raised eyebrows
G. Owning what we are good at is an unfamiliar concept in our culture

（新题材）A man taking his mother to a surprise party tells her they’re going to the mall. A woman fibs that the
store was out of her overweight boyfriend’s favorite junk food. A tutor assures his student that her spotty resumé looks
fine.
Even benevolent forms of deception come in shades of acceptability, and people who learn that they have been
misled don’t always see it the way deceivers do. A lie that’s meant to inflate someone’s confidence or discourage a
bad habit, for example, often involves making a judgment about what’s best for that person. That presumption can
backfire.
In recent experiments, participants playing an economic game on a computer received a tip that led them to one
of two possible payoffs. Some learned that the sender of the tip had lied to them to secure them a particular option. If
the best option had been debatable rather than obvious—such as receiving $10 right away rather than $30 after three
months—participants judged that person as less moral for lying and were less satisfied with the outcome, on average,
even if it was the one they had previously said they preferred. “People seem to feel they have a right to the truth, and
that by taking that away, you diminish their ability to act freely,” says study co-author Matthew Lupoli, a Ph.D.
candidate at the University of California, San Diego.
Making up falsehoods isn’t the only way to kindly deceive, though: You might also simply leave out unpleasant
facts. Recent studies by University of Chicago researcher Emma Levine and colleagues examined both types of lie in
hypothetical patient-doctor talks and other contexts.
People in the role of deceiver tended to view the omission of potentially harmful details (such as a poor prognosis)
as comparable to or more acceptable than offering a comforting fiction (that a patient’s outlook was favorable). But
those in the role of the deceived often considered false-but-supportive statements more tolerable than lies of omission.
For deceivers, actively committing a lie feels more intentional and might provoke more guilt than omission, Levine
says. But the targets of deception “aren’t likely to be sensitive to these differences because they just experience the

In general honesty is probably still the best policy. A lie that provides some emotional benefits and has little
downside could be the closest second.
