“How many languages do you speak ” It seems like a simple question, but it's a tough one for me to answer. I' ve studied six, but I don't speak six. I can't count each language I' ve tried to learn as one, because my competence in each is different. The simplest answer is two.Eagle-eyed readers will notice I'm writing this in English, but I could have composed it inFrench.
English is like sitting, and French is like walking. I'm really good at both but obviously sitting is easier. I took Italian in college, and to continue this analogy(类比), Italian is like jogging. I can jo g for a decent distance, but not as far as I could go if I were walking. When Ijog, I have to focus on not slowing down to a walk. But I also can't speed up and start running.And by running, of course, I mean speaking Spanish. In fact, Spanish isn't just running for me; it's running in a race. The whole time, I am totally focused on that finish line, and whenI get there, I'm spent. I might even need to be carried off the track.
Now, Norwegian is also like running a race, but this time with hurdles (跨栏). The level of difficulty is much higher —— as are the chances of me falling flat on my face. And then there'sGreek. Well, here's what Greek is to me: It's running a race, with hurdles, while being hunted by a lion. I keep up or get swallowed up.
Clearly‘six’ isn’ t the right answer, just like‘two’ doesn’ t paint the full picture. I feel cheap taking credit for English—— it's effortless. But I am proud of the other five and of all those racesI' ve run, whether I was going for distance or speed, or just trying to make it out alive.
24. Why is it hard for the author to answer the question
A. She does not figure out which is a spoken language.
B. She isn't aware of the definition of“studying a language”
C. She understands that studying and speaking vary greatly.
D. She mainly applies English and French in her daily life.
25. Which is most probably the author's native language
A. Spanish. B. French. C. Italian. D. English.
26. How does the author find speaking Greek
A. Hopeless. B. Frightening. C. Effortless. D. Discouraging.
27. What is the author's attitude towards her learning multiple languages
A. She takes pride in her success. B. Her efforts are really worthwhile.
C. Learning languages is a necessity. D. It calls for patience and speed.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is being applied to help save the UK's endangered red squirrels(松鼠). The groundbreaking technology, known as Squirrel Agent, has been trained to spot the difference between red and grey squirrels in order to manage feeders meant for red squirrels and ultimately, control populations.
The UK's only native squirrel, reds have been under threat since the introduction of greys from North America in the late 19th century. Today, greys are thought to number some 2.7million VS only a few hundred thousand reds. This is largely because greys are bigger,outcompeting reds for food and territory, and carry squirrelpox, a disease deadly to reds.Collectively, these pressures have pushed red squirrels to the edge of extinction.
Squirrel Agent, which claims a 97 per cent accuracy rate, recognises reds by their size,shape and weight, and features such as tails, faces and ears. Feeders are then remotely opened for reds or, for greys, kept closed, instead opening traps or encouraging them to consume pills aimed at birth control.
“It's a real showcase of what AI can do —— it's working in real time to do a task that we don't have enough human volunteers for,” says Emma McClenaghan, co-founder of GenysysEngine, which developed the system.
Project Red Haven, as the programme is known, is being tested by five wildlife charities,including the Scottish Wildlife Trust and Ulster Wildlife. But this is just the beginning. It's hoped that the tool's tech will evolve (发展) sufficiently to not only identify different species,but also individuals.
“Whiskers (触须) are like human fingerprints,” says McClenaghan. By distinguishing squirrels through their whiskers, AI will build data over time to help conservationists track family lines.
28. What is the function of the second paragraph
A. To give a specific example.
B. To provide background context.
C. To tell of red squirrels' extinction.
D. To clarify the species of squirrels.
29. How does Squirrel Agent respond to a grey squirrel approaching a feeder
A. It shuts the feeder and may activate a trap.
B. It releases birth control medicine first.
C. It keeps the grey away from the feeder.
D. It sends an alarm to the human volunteers.
30. What do we know about Project Red Haven
A. It has been fully applied by wildlife charities.
B. It was created by the Scottish Wildlife Trust.
C. It is likely to have a more promising future.
D. It can accurately identify individual animals.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. How Grey Squirrels Outcompete Red Squirrels
B. AI Controls Grey Squirrels by Spreading Squirrelpox
C. Wildlife Charities Test New Feeder Designs for Squirrels
D. New Tech“Squirrel Agent” Can Target Greys at Feeders
D
Before you open an app for a“hit”, it could be helpful to ask yourself, “What's my reason for wanting to use the app right now ”
Short videos reshape how the human brain processes information, warns a new study published in NeuroImage. Oxford University Press named“brain rot” its 2024 Word of the Year——a term to describe the mental fog and cognitive (认知的) decline tied to endless video watching, which is actually changing how our brains work: it dulls focus, weakens memory,and severely disturbs decision-making.
The research, which combined behavioral analysis, brain imaging, and computational decision-making models, uncovered two critical ways short video addiction alters the brain.First, short video consumption affects you by hurting your sensitivity to loss. This is the tendency to feel the pain of losing something more strongly than the pleasure of gaining something of equal value. In decision-making, this comparison acts like a protective filter(过滤器) that helps you avoid risks. It makes you think twice before making choices that could lead to negative outcomes. However, if the sensitivity to loss is reduced, you' re more likely to make risky decisions without fully considering the consequences. Second, it slows information processing. Researchers found heavy users had significantly lower drift rates, the speed at which the brain gathers and analyzes evidence before deciding, meaning their brains worked slower to process information, requiring more mental effort even for simple choices. Notably,these issues are not due to poor willpower, but the brain adapting to the rapid pace of short-form content.
If you' ve been feeling mentally foggy, troubled by everyday decisions, or find it hard to focus, it could be your brain adapting to the speed of the content you consume. This might be your sign to give your mind the space it needs to exist without constant stimulation.
The fix isn't quitting videos entirely, but intentional engagement: pause to ask, “Why use this app now ” Meanwhile, we can appreciate moments of meaningless time. We can make a habit of letting ourselves be intentionally bored, and find ways to be away from the screen.
32. What does“brain rot” refer to in paragraph 2
A. Physical damage to the brain.
B. Addiction to short videos.
C. Brains’ critical working method.
D. Reduction in mental abilities.
33. Why are heavy short-video users more likely to make risky decisions
A. They tend to seek more risks.
B. They weigh gain and loss well.
C. Their awareness of loss weakens.
D. Their decision-making speed quickens.
34. What is the author's view regarding short-video consumption
A. Purposeful involvement in short videos will be helpful.
B. Short videos should be banned to protect brain function.
C. The harm of short videos is overstated by researchers.
D. You should adapt to the speed of the content you consume.
35. Which of the following best describes the structure of the passage
A. Define a term → criticize a behavior→predict its consequences.
B. Present a study→ analyze findings→ offer practical advice.
C. Introduce an idea → explain its origin→ propose solutions.
D. Compare effects→ introduce methods→draw conclusions.

Blanking on English words The setback can make your study difficult. But the good news is there are multiple proven strategies for boosting memory.
Strategy 1: 36
Best for: Remembering any new information.
The brain links new details to information already stored away. So the easiest way to remember anything is to make it meaningful. Meaningful information is easier to remember than random, unconnected facts.
37 . This is the idea behind memorization techniques —— acronyms (首字母缩略),rhymes, or songs that create associations between new information and existing knowledge or visual imagery.
Strategy 2: Space out your study sessions —— and let yourself struggle
Best for: Studying for a test, learning a new language, remembering facts in detail.
Spaced repetition involves revisiting information at increasing intervals (间隔). 38 .Consolidating (巩固) this into long-term memory takes time and happens“offline” during rest periods. Another way to successfully commit something to memory is to test yourself and let yourself struggle to remember. For example, rather than rereading your textbook, test yourself first. It can help solidify information in your brain.
Strategy 3: Employ visual and spatial memory
Human brains are particularly good at remembering visual and spatial information, by linking information to familiar locations.
Strategy 4: Prioritize sleep
Adequate sleep is particularly important. 39 . Exercise and healthy eating also help.
Strategy 5: Emotional connections
Memories associated with strong emotions are easier to form and maintain. 40 .
Strategy 6: Active recall
It's more effective than passive reading. Regularly test yourself rather than just rereading materials. This struggle actually helps strengthen memories.
A. Make meaningful connections
B. Spend 30 minutes focusing on memory
C. Write down new words repeatedly until you can recall them immediately
D. For information without built-in meaning, creating artificial meaning helps
E. Try linking information you want to remember to personal experiences or emotions
F. The brain uses this time to review what you' ve learned and store it in long-term memory
G. This works because when you initially learn something, you store it in short-term memory

Last month, my friend Ollie and I saw a poster in the park for Waste to Treasure Day. It said“We’ re having a recycled-sculpture contest here this weekend. The grand prize is a gift certificate to the skate shop!”
Ollie looked down at his trusty old skateboard. “I could probably do with an upgrade.”
“We could both use new boards,” I said. “Let's team up and share the prize when we win!”
If we wanted a real shot at winning, we should probably plan what we were going to make before we got there.
“How about a robot ” said Ollie.
“Possibly,” I said. “Or some kind of tree ”
“Maybe.” Ollie hopped back on his board. “I have to get to soccer practice. Can we decide tomorrow ”
I called to him as he skated away, “Don't practice too hard. You' re going to need lots of energy for the contest!”
That night, I lay awake trying to think of the perfect sculpture idea. When I finally fell asleep, I had a wild dream. Ollie and I were working on a sculpture of a fire-breathing dragon.It was so fantastic that we ended up winning first place. But just as the judge was handing us the prize, our dragon came to life and flew away.
After breakfast, when I told Ollie about the dream, he said, “Yeah! A dragon’ s perfect!”
Since dragons are undeniably awesome, I agreed and spent the rest of the day researching.On contest day, I was prepared with the perfect dragon picture to use as our guide.
When we got there, we saw piles of recycled stuff, including cardboard, containers and lids, used toys, and trinkets (小玩意儿). Each workstation had tape, scissors, glue, paint,and markers.
“Welcome, artists, to our very first Waste to Treasure Day!” announced a woman wearing a plastic flamingo (火烈鸟) hat. “Please use anything you find here, and feel free to work by yourself, with a partner, or in a group. Judging and cake will be at three o’ clock. Now, find an open workstation, and go create!”
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;

Ollie and I found a spot, and then we got off to a slow start. We laughed as we stuck random items, and soon, a unique creature took shape.

M: Hello, everyone. Today technology has evolved to a point where everyone has a technological tool that serves as a communication device. What impact do social media have on young people This is the main topic of our discussion today.
A study carried out in England interviewed over 150 thousand young people aged between14 and 24 years old. It evaluated the impact of various online platforms, such as YouTube,Facebook, Instagram and Twitter on the mental health of the participants. The researchers found that YouTube had been evaluated by communication scholars, and was designed to encourage knowledge-sharing among peers and build communities of creativity and communication. However, the other media were reported to have a negative impact. Instagram and Snapchat were the two social media platforms having the worst impact on teenagers' mental health.
As parents, we should do something to prevent this addiction. The first and most important piece of advice is that we should try to use electronics less to set a good example. Second, we should set a time limit for children's using social media. Besides, we should be present and communicate with our children in person more. That's all for today's program. Thank you.
