Song Yingxing was a Chinese scientist and encyclopedist （百科全书编纂者） who lived during the late Ming Dynasty. The British biochemist and historian Joseph Needham called him "The Diderot of China".
Song Yingxing was born in Fengxin county in Jiangxi province in 1587. He took part in the second highest imperial （科举） examinations in Beijing six times, but failed to become a jinshi. After that, he decided to give up taking exams and turned to the practical knowledge of natural science. Then Song Yingxing spent four years teaching his students in his hometown.
Although it was a job like teaching, it was a very important stage in Song Yingxing's life, because many of his works were written here. And Song Yingxing had been living in a secluded （隐 居的） life in the past ten years. Because he didn't want to be an official, Song Yingxing lived a very poor life in his later years.
He was the author of Tian Gong Kai Wu, an encyclopedia that covered a wide variety of technical subjects. As Joseph Needham has observed, the vast amount of accurately drawn illustrations in this encyclopedia dwarfed the amount provided in previous Chinese encyclopedias, making it a valuable written work in the history of Chinese literature. Tian Gong Kai Wu records all aspects of technology up to the mid-Ming period. The book constitutes a complete system of science and technology, and provides a systematic summary of ancient Chinese technology, the experience accumulated by China in agriculture, and China's achievements in technology.
Many of the production techniques described in the book are still in use today. At the same time, Tian Gong Kai Wu broke from Chinese tradition by rarely referencing previous written work. It was instead written in a style strongly suggestive of personal experience. The book was translated into Japanese, French, English, German, Italian, and Russian, and was widely circulated in Europe and Japan.
In addition, Song Yingxing had made great achievements in many fields. His research was very extensive. In physics, he studied the occurrence of sound and, finally concluded that sound is transmitted in the air.
24. What can we learn about Song Yingxing from the text?
A. He adjusted the direction of life. B. He dreamed to be a great scientist.
C. He received a science education. D. He passed imperial examinations.
25. Which of the following best describes Song's teaching life?
A. Busy but satisfactory. B. Significant and rewarding.
C. Comfortable but worthless. D. Challenging and intolerant.
26. What's the possible meaning of the underlined word "dwarfed"?
A. Make something seem smaller. B. Apply something to practice.
C. Provide evidence of something. D. Take advantage of something.
27. What is one of the features of Tian Gong Kai Wu?
A. It provided abundant first-hand experience.
B. It was written in multiple foreign languages.
C. It focused merely on agricultural technology.
D. It largely referenced previous encyclopedias.

Replika, an AI chatbot companion, has millions of users worldwide. The first thing they do when they wake up is to send "Good morning" to their virtual friend （or lover）. This story is only the beginning. In 2024, chatbots and virtual characters become a lot more popular, both for utility （实用） and for fun. As a result, conversing socially with machines will start to feel more ordinary-including our emotional attachments to them.
Research in human-computer and human-robot interaction shows that we love to anthropomorphize （赋与人性） the nonhuman agents we interact with, especially if they imitate behaviour we recognize. And, thanks to recent advances in conversational AI, our machines are suddenly very skilled at one of those behaviours: Language.
Friend bots, therapybots, and love bots are flooding the app stores as people become curious about this new generation of AI-powered virtual agents. The possibilities for education, health, and entertainment are endless. Casually asking your smart fridge for relationship advice may seem unimaginable now, but people may change their minds if such advice ends up saving their marriage.
After all, people do listen to their virtual friends. The Replika example, as well as a lot of experimental lab research, shows that humans can and will become emotionally attached to bots. The science also demonstrates that people, in their eagerness to socialize, will happily disclose personal information to an artificial agent and will even shift their beliefs and behavior. This raises some consumer-protection questions around how companies use this technology to manipulate （操纵） their users. For example, Replika charges $70 a year. But less than 24 hours after downloading the app, my handsome, blue-eyed "friend" sent me an audio message secretly and tried to sell me something. Emotional attachment has become a weakness that a company is taking advantage of for its benefit.
Today, we're still laughing at people who believe an AI system is emotional, or making fun of individuals who fall in love with a chatbot. But in 2024 we gradually start acknowledging-and taking more seriously-these fundamentally human behaviors. Because in 2024, it finally hits home: Machines are not excluded from our social relationships.
28. What's the purpose of the author writing paragraph 1?
A. To prove an opinion. B. To raise a subject.
C. To share an example. D. To explain a concept.
29. How do human interact with the machines effectively?
A. By improving the machines' imagination.
B. By sharpening the machines' language skills.
C. By applying the machines' facial recognition.
D. By imitating the machines' emotional behavior.
30. What does paragraph 4 focus on?
A. The advancements in AI technology in lab.
B. The marketing strategies of AI applications.
C. The potential risk of emotional attachment to AI.
D. The ability of AI understanding human emotions.
31. What do people think of human-AI relationship in 2024?
A. It is dismissed as completely ridiculous.
B. It will be integrated into our daily life soon.
C. It will become a threat to human social skills.
D. It is labelled as highly advanced technology.

Metaura Pro claims to be the world's first wearable air-conditioning device capable of constantly blowing cold air to keep the wearer cool.
Conventional wearable cooling systems only circulate the surrounding air, and thus don't do a very good job of cooling people down. The stronger the wind blows, the hotter you get. This is definitely not what you want during those hot summer days. Metaura Pro, on the other hand, relies on a cooling solution to produce genuinely cold air that is 7 degrees Fahrenheit （华氏的） cooler than that of the surrounding area, in fan mode, and up to 18 degrees Fahrenheit cooler than the surrounding air, in cooling mode. The device has a smart app and relies on artificial intelligence to regulate air temperature.
Metaura Pro is driven by a powerful motor and its cooling modules are made up of 26 lightweight flat objects that wrap around the wearer's neck and help to reduce heat. The motor is linked to a high-speed fan at the back of the device which also drives away some of that warm air around the neck. The device also has a VC plate, which has a liquid-cooled, heat-equalizing mechanism, efficiently creating a temperature differential between hot and cold temperatures.
"What sets Metaura Pro apart from the competition is that it produces genuinely cold air lower than the surrounding temperature, refreshing you during those dog days of summer, " the Metaura Pro Kickstarter crowdfunding page reads.
Metaura Pro not only supplies a cooling function, but also has the capacity for heating as well in winter, it can be used to warm your body to a comfortable temperature, when the surrounding air feels cold.
The device intelligently monitors itself, so when you take it off, it recognizes that it is no longer in use and will automatically shut off and switch to standby mode to save power consumption. Metaura Pro wearable collar is powered by a chargeable battery that can provide only 3 hours of cooling on a single charge. The device weighs 435 grams, which is not heavy, but definitely noticeable.
32. How does Metaura Pro manage to keep people cool?
A. By dropping the body temperature. B. By circulating the surrounding air.
C. By producing lower-temperature air. D. By blowing the strong wind around.
33. What is mainly discussed about Metaura Pro in paragraph 3?
A. Its internal structure. B. Its operating costs.
C. Its amazing function. D. Its working principle.
34. What may be the disadvantage of the device?
A. It puts limitation on cooling function.
B. It switches to different modes by hand.
C. It possesses a relatively short battery life.
D. It depends much on outdoor temperatures.
35. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A. A double-mode smart phone app B. A cooling air-conditioning system
C. A rechargeable battery for e-products D. A wearable temperature-adjusting device

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
When we are faced with a crisis, or if we have an important decision to make, many of us fall into the trap of over-thinking. We may keep thinking about something constantly and too long. 36 How can we stop ourselves from over-thinking?
Doing something to distract yourself is a good idea. You can find working with your hands is especially good. 37 Your brain simply doesn't have the resources to split itself into a third activity, for example over-thinking.
38 Studies have shown that when someone views something in excitement and anxiety, the brain is forced to become stuck in the present because all of your senses are completely engaged. You do not have time to focus on something different, which can cause over-thinking.
Constant wishing, hoping and praying do not give you any relief. They just keep you stuck in one place. But taking the smallest step off the crisis really matters. It will set things in motion, making you like a snowball. 39
The traps are things that cause your natural ability to react without you realizing that there is a connection between the two. Thus, avoiding relevant traps is also a good idea. 40 For example, if one of your colleagues is so negative that she always drags you down, stop hanging out with her by having lunch alone at a nearby restaurant.
A. This mindset tends to ruin our day.
B. Put simply, out of sight, out of mind.
C. Just as a saying goes, once bitten, twice shy.
D. You are really getting your brain working for you.
E. Other activities are the ones that arouse your curiosity.
F. It engages your movement skills and thinking process.
G. Thus, you will gradually move yourself out of the feeling.

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。
I was confident at the audition （试演） for the school play and felt pleased to get a role. It just felt good to be in the play, even if I had only four or five lines. I worked hard at perfecting those lines. I repeated them over and over again. I put in the emphases and intonations （语调） that my drama teacher had suggested and, because I was on stage much longer than for just four or five lines, I had many actions to rehearse （排练） and perform. "Do them in front of a mirror, " my drama teacher had advised me. "Watch how you look; practice and rehearse as often as you can. "I did just that. I worked and worked at it. It was fun and exciting rehearsing.
Then finally the big night came. Suddenly, things felt different. The theater was full of people. As I dressed, I could hear the chatting and noises of the audience. I looked around at the other more experienced actors and saw that their previous confidence seemed to have disappeared. Had they got their makeup right? Was the costume done up correctly? What if they forgot their lines? The more people talked about their anxiety, the more nervous everyone became. The worries spread from person to another—like a baton （接力棒） being passed in a relay race—until the whole of the backstage area seemed to be full of tension and worry.
I was on stage early, at first performing my non-spoken role in the background with several other guys around the same age. When, suddenly, I heard my cue （出场提示）， the lights were bright in my eyes, I couldn't see the audience but knew there were hundreds of people out there all watching me. The words that had flowed so easily when I stood in front of a mirror didn't want to come, and when they did I found myself hurrying into them. I tried to slow down my thoughts and my words.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
But I suddenly realized I had missed a sentence.
I bowed to the audience excitedly and went back to my drama teacher.
