Thanks to a generous and kind soul, this winter is not cold any more. A Stockton teen will make sure seniors are staying warm and unforgotten during the holiday season, because dozens of elders across the nation are getting socks for Christmas — they couldn’t be happier about it.
Elle Gianelli, 17, is a student in high school, but most of her friends are elders. She has been making colored socks with silly designs for years, sending them to seniors in nursing and care homes to brighten up their day.
It all started from the closer-than-close friendship she has with her grandmother, which taught the value of spending time with elders. “I’m a grandma’s girl, I love love love my nana,” Gianelli said. On putting forward the idea, she was supported by her family and friends. Later, she was encouraged by her teachers who started the project Socks for Seniors when she was in her 7th grade, and she has so far lighted up 92 care homes in 48 states.
But as Christmas approaches, she’s making efforts to prepare her surprise in order to send boxes of silly socks to elders in all 50 states in time for the big day. “I know most people have toys for babies and things for kids but they always seem to forget about elders,” Gianelli told CBS. “Maybe they don’t have family or maybe they live super far away and they’re only getting something like a postcard.” To make sure that elders’ toes and hearts remain warm this holiday season, Gianelli is hoping to raise $10,000 through GoFundMe for a big sock drive. So far, with still 19 days to go before Christmas, she has received 95% of her total in donations.
4．What’s elders’ feeling on getting the socks
A．Overjoyed. B．Embarrassed. C．Confused. D．Frightened.
5．What inspired Gianelli’s kind action
A．Teachers’ guidance. B．Christmas project.
C．Love for her grandma. D．Encouragement from friends.
6．What can we learn about Gianelli’s Christmas surprise
A．She also has toys and things for kids. B．She will send socks to seniors in 48 states.
C．She still has 19 days to prepare the surprise. D．She has raised $10,000 through GoFundMe.

A．Warm Gifts From a Teen. B．The Wishes of the Elders.
C．A Special Relationship. D．A Wonderful School Project.

When it comes to medical care, many patients and doctors believe “more is better”. But what they do not realize is that over-treatment-too many scans too many blood tests too many procedures (步骤) -may bring harm.
Terrence Power, for example, complained that after his wife learned she had Wegener’s disease, they found it difficult to refuse testing suggested by her doctor. The doctor insisted on office visits every three weeks, even when she was feeling well. He frequently ordered blood tests and X-rays, and repeatedly referred her to specialists for even minor complaints (疾病). Even when tests came back negative, more were ordered and she was hospitalized as prevention when she developed a cold. She had as many as 25 doctor visits during one six-month period. The couple was spending about $30, 000 a year for her care.
After several years of physical suffering and near financial ruin from the medical costs, the couple began questioning the treatment after discussing with other patients in online support groups. “It’s a really hard thing to determine when they’ve crossed the line,” Mr. Power said. “You think she’s getting the best care in the world, but after a while you start to wonder: What is the purpose ” Mr. Power then spoke with his own main care doctor who advised him to find a new specialist to oversee (监视) Mrs. Power’s care. Under the new doctor’s care, the regular testing stopped and Mrs. Power’s condition became stable.
Now she sees the doctor only four or five times a year.
8．What do many patients and doctors believe
A．Less is better. B．More is better. C．More may not be better.
9．How often did the doctor ask Mrs Power to visit him
A．Every week. B．Every two weeks. C．Every three weeks
10．What does “hospitalized” in the second paragraph mean
A．Be sent to a hospital.
B．Be sent to home
C．Be sent to a church.
11．When did the couple begin questioning the treatment
A．After knowing about other patients treatment.
B．After having many doctor visits during one six-month period.
C．After discussing with other patients in online support groups.
D
ChatGPT has quickly become popular around the world because of its advanced conversational abilities. It can answer questions, do translations, give the main idea of articles and even write codes (代码) for a computer program. It is as good as a human inside a computer.
ChatGPT is making life very convenient. A time might come when people hand it some articles and it makes a well-made report. That could, however, mean job losses. After all, if a computer program can write codes, then it would make a programmer lose his job.
That may be a worry, but it is still too early to worry about that. ChatGPT has more advanced learning features, but it still follows the same technological way. Its biggest advantage lies in the ability to turn words into a language from an ocean of data, but it's still not that creative. AI can quickly draw a picture, but that picture will be based on pictures that it has seen. It can also write books about the future, but the books will be based on articles about the future that it has read.
In comparison, a human brain imagines the future and then tries hard to realize it. AI can imagine a future with faster spaceships, but it can't imagine a world of space as humans can.
So there is no need to worry too much. By being creative there will be plenty of chances for humans to win over AI.
12．What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 1 refer to
A．The world. B．ChatGPT. C．A computer. D．A program.
13．How is the fourth paragraph developed
A．By telling stories. B．By giving examples.
C．By listing numbers. D．By making comparisons.
14．Which is the biggest advantage of ChatGPT according to the passage
A．It has its own creativity.
B．It has conversational abilities.
C．It has more advanced learning features.
D．It has the ability to turn words into a language.
15．In which part can you find the passage in a newspaper
A．Sports. B．Science. C．Education. D．Business.

What comes to mind when you think about chocolate A candy bar at Halloween Ice cream on a hot day
For Ibrahim, a 12-year-old boy from the West African country of Ghana, chocolate is not about sweet treats; it is about bitter work. 16 But if they did, we would learn that Ibrahim spends his days growing and harvesting cocoa beans, from which chocolate is made. We would also learn that he is just one of more than two million children who perform this difficult labour instead of attending school.
To change the harmful practices like this, some farms use an approach called Fairtrade. 17 It aims to create a different relationship between buyers (chocolate companies) and sellers (cocoa farmers) by encouraging farmers to join together to form a shared business called a cooperative. Because farmers work together instead of competing with each other, they can demand a higher price from the buyers. 18
Consumers like you can play a role as well. You can buy Fairtrade chocolate if possible, pressure candy companies to change their labour practices, or ask local stores to sell Fairtrade products. 19 It is a programme recognizing schools that provide Fairtrade products in cafeterias or include related lessons in curriculum (课程).
Chocolate has a hidden story that affects children like Ibrahim-children who want a happy future just like you do. 20 By enjoying Fairtrade products or simply spreading the word, you can make chocolate as sweet for all children as it is for you.
A．You have the power to change the story.
B．The labels on chocolate do not tell his story.
C．Fairtrade is a way of doing business that prohibits child labour.
D．You can also take action through the Fairtrade Schools network.
E．On many farms, children like Ibrahim perform difficult farming tasks.
F．Cocoa trees grow in the tropical climates of Africa, Latin America and South-East Asia.
G．With more income, farmers can pay adult workers and can send their children to school.

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
One day two years ago, my mother came home from work and announced that she had found a pet for the family. My father, little sister, and I eyed her in doubt.
My sister asked what kind of dog it was. My mother said it was a poodle (贵宾犬) named Pepe. I couldn’t believe she wanted a poodle — especially one with such an ordinary name. But she had made up her mind. “Actually, I’m doing a co-worker a favor,” she said. “The woman who owns Pepe says he hates to be alone and needs children to play with him.”
Pepe arrived the next night. His short tail shook happily. I didn’t get very close to him, thinking he should have stayed with his previous owner. My little sister played with him until bedtime, and he would come to me and begged for more attention. I always ignored him. But no matter how I treated him, he’d always like to be with me. He has always been waiting for me at the front door at the end of the day, smiling happily. He seems to know that I will be coming home from school at that time. Every day, he asks me with his eyes to play with him or take him somewhere. At night, he will wait until I fall asleep, leave his bed by the wall heater, walk down the hall and jump onto the end of my bed.
One night, while everyone was sleeping, I was in a half dream state. My throat hurt, my eyes pained, and some animal was crying in my ear. I opened my eyes and saw fog in my room. I wondered who left the window open. Pepe cried and bit my pajama sleeve (睡衣袖). Then I woke up and realized that it wasn’t fog in my room — it was smoke.

46．I Love Sports
Sports have always been an important part of my life. I love playing sports and take part in different kinds of them, such as soccer, basketball, running, swimming and so on. Among all these sports, I like soccer best. I have been playing soccer since I was a little kid.
These activities help me stay in shape and keep my energy level up. Furthermore, they also provide a great way for me to connect with others and teach me the importance of setting goals and striving to achieve them.
47．Standing up, I couldn’t breathe. I got down on the floor and moved beneath the smoke. Pepe followed every move of mine, his curly-haired belly dragging on the ground. If I hadn’t been so scared, I would have laughed. We finally arrived in the kitchen, where the smoke was very thick. I coughed heavily, but went forward. Pepe went with me. I covered my face with my pajama top and stood up, only to find that my mother had left a pot, with some oil still in it, on a burner that was still on.
I turned off the burner with Pepe around me. I moved on the floor to open the back door. Smoke went into the backyard quickly. Pepe ran out, but returned to follow me as I moved back to wake my family. They had their doors shut, and hadn’t smelled the smoke. My parents and sister woke up finally and we aired out the house, and then gathered in the kitchen to thank Pepe. He saved our lives and earned my respect forever. To this day, I’ve never seen a finer example of unconditional love than a poodle named Pepe.
