In university I had a part-time job at a shop that sold doughnuts and coffee. Situated on a block where several buses stopped, it served the people who had a few minutes to wait for their bus.
Every afternoon around four o'clock, a group of schoolchildren would burst into the shop, and business would come to a stop. Adults would glance in, see the crowd and pass on. But I didn't mind if the children waited for their bus inside. Sometimes I would hand out a bus fare when a ticket went missing ——always repaid the next day. On snowy days I would give away some doughnuts. I would lock the door at closing time, and we waited in the warm shop until their bus finally arrived.
I enjoyed my young friends, but it never occurred to me that I played an important role in their lives --- until one afternoon when a man came and asked if l was the girl working on weekends around four o'clock. He identified himself as the father of two of my favorites.
"I want you to know I appreciate what you do for my children. I worry about them taking two buses to get home. It means a lot that they can wait here and you keep an eye on them. When they are with the doughnut lady, I know they are safe," I told him it wasn't a big deal, and that I enjoyed the kids.
So I was the Doughnut Lady. I not only received a title, but became a landmark.
Now I think about all the people who keep an eye on my own children. They become, well, Doughnut Ladies. Like the men at the skating rink(滑冰场) who let my boys ring home, Ur the bus driver who drove my daughter to her stop at the end of the route at night but wouldn't leave until I arrived to pick her up, Or that nice police officer who took pity on my boys walking home in the rain when I was at work ---even though the phone rang all the next day with calls from curious neighbors.* Was that a police car I saw at your house last night "
I ha t wasn't a police car. That was a Doughnut Lady.
24. According to the passage, the author sometimes .
A. Sold bus tickets to the children.
B. Did business with the children's help.

A. She hadn't done anything very significant.
B. She hadn't made a lot of money from the children.
C. She hadn't spent plenty of time with the children.
D. She hadn't found it hard to get along with the children.

Jace Tunnell, the founder of Nurdle I troll and Reserve Director at the University of Texas Marine Science Institute, is listening to the same question often.
I hear every day, somebody says, ‘What is a nurdle ’" he said.
Tunnell explained nurdles are tiny balls of plastic that are typically used to make almost every plastic item we use. so they're everywhere! He said nurdles are usually spilled(溢出) during transport from cargo ships or railroad cars. “These things would be out here for hundreds of years if we're not picking them up,' Tunnell said while on a recent Nurdle Patrol cleanup along Galveston Bay.
Since 2018, Nurdle Patrol has grown to thousands of volunteers worldwide. Many people -volunteer with Nurdle Patrol and work for the Galveston Bay Foundation. Nurdle Patrol groups upload their findings to the nonprofit's website map. It’s marked in colors to show where the highest concentration of nurdles is found.
“They look natural, and birds think that they're food," Tunnel l said. ·Birds, fish, sea turtles and other sea animals can eat nurdles and finally die from hunger because of a false sensation of fullness and lack of nutrition.”
I ended up finding 123 nurdles in 10 minutes. That's high concentration,” Tunnell said about a recent cleanup. “I plan to take those to an elected official and say, 'Look, these are what I found on our beaches here. We need to do something about this.). So, it kind of puts in motion change that can happen."

A recent survey found children would rather be online influencers than astronauts. It made headlines and led to plenty of complaints about “kids these days”. Is influencing a promising career path The lifestyles we see advertised on social media are enticing, but under the shining appearance lie uncertain income, pay inequality, disability and mental health issues.
Successful influencers will be the first to claim that anyone can make it in the industry. However, social media economy experts uncovered a huge income gap between successful influencers and everyone else. For most people trying to become an influencer, their passion projects of content creation often become free work for brands.
Most influencers are self-employed, often experiencing inconsistent income and a lack of protection that comes with long-term employment. The risks of self-employment are increased in the influencer industry by an absence of industry standards and little pay transparency(透明度) Influencers are often forced to assess their own value and determine fees for their work. As a result, content creators often undervalue their own creative labour, and many end up working for free.
influencers are also often at the mercy of algorithms(任由算法摆布) =-- the behind-the-scenes computer programs that determine which posts are shown, in which order, to users. Platforms share little detail about their algorithms, yet they finally determine who and what gains visibility(可见性) and influence on social media. The threat of invisibility is a constant source of insecurity for influencers, who are under constant pressure to feed platforms with content. If they don't, they may be “punished by the biorhythm ---having posts hidden or displayed lower down on search results.
Constant online presence leads to an e of the most common issues in the influence r industry: mental health concerns. Influencers can connect to their platform workspaces and audience at any time of day or night, which can lead to them overworking. Coupled with the fear of online criticism, it contributes to mental and physical health issues.
Although becoming an influence r may look appealing to more and more people, the industry's dark underside needs to be made visible and improved through enhanced employment regulation(管理) and industry-led cultural change.
32. What does the underlined word “enticing” in paragraph 1 mean
A. Imaginative. B. Similar. C. Traditional. D. Attractive.
33. What might lead to many influencers undervaluing their creative work
A. Their belief in winning through quantity.
B. Money paid by the industry is often hidden.
C. Their eagerness to make their work visible online.
D. There're few employment opportunities in the industry.
34. Why do. the influencers feel stressed according to paragraph 4
A. They are often punished by platforms.
B. They have little knowledge of platform algorithm.
C. They find it difficult to create new content constantly.
D. They have to work out the order of posts to be displayed.
35. What is the author's purpose in writing this text
A. To describe the life of self-employed content creators.
B. To stress the importance of visibility in the online world.
C. To reveal relationships between platforms and influencers.
D. To show the dark side of working as an online content creator.

Dear Tom,
How is everything going on with you More than delighted to hear that a Chinese song: appreciation activity will kick off in your school and you are in charge of the Chinese part, I'm writing to put forward some practical suggestions.
First of all, when it comes to songs with Chinese elements, classical music is bound to be highly recommended, which is always accompanied with traditional musical instruments to immerse audience in the charm of it. In addition, it will be a wise choice to introduce some representative Chinese singers like Jay Chou who do well in China style composition and can have audience arrested. Last but not least, it is also advisable to add some background information of the chosen songs and singers, which is of great significance to students' thorough understanding of Chinese music.
It would be better if you could take my proposal into due consideration. I do hope your culture festival will go smoothly and be warmly welcome by all the participants!
