11．My parents influenced us with the concepts of family，faith and patriotism when I was young．Even though we struggled to make ends meet，they stressed how fortunate we were to live in a great country with limitless opportunities．
I got my first real job when I was ten．My dad，Benjamin，injured his back working in a cardboard - box factory and was retrained as a hairstylist．He rented space in a little mall and gave his shop the fancy name of Mr．Ben's Coiffure．
The owner of the shopping center gave Dad a discount on his rent for cleaning the parking lot three nights a week，which meant getting up at 3 a．m．．To pick up trash，Dad used a little machine that looked like a lawn mower．Mom and I emptied garbage cans and picked up litter by hand．It took two to three hours to clean the lot．I'd sleep in the car on the way home．I did this for two years，but the lessons I learned have lasted a lifetime，I acquired discipline and a strong work morality，and learned at an early age the importance of balancing life's competing interests---in my case，school，homework and a job．This really helped during my senior year of high school，when I worked 40 hours a week flipping hamburgers，at a fast - food joint while taking a full load of college - prep courses． The hard work paid off．I attended the U．S．Military Academy and went on to receive graduate degree in law and business from Harvard．Later，I joined a big Los Agnates law firm and was elected to the California state assembly．In these jobs and in everything else I've done，I have never forgotten those nights in the parking lot．The experience taught me that there is dignity in all work and that if people are working to provide for themselves and their families，that is something we should honor．
（1）In order to get a discount on rent，．
A．his father had to work as a hairstylist
B．his father had to work in a cardboard - box factory

B．He took a college - prep courses at high school．
C．He took a part-time job during his senior year．

（3）What does the underlined sentence "The hard work paid off" mean？
A．The author got a high pay by working hard．
B．The author compounded of the hard work．
C．The effort which he made had no affection．
D．The hard work was worthwhile for the author．
（4）We can learn from the text that．
A．it is unimaginable for a child to help his family

D．the harder the work is，the more interest one shows组卷：6引用：1难度：0.5 -
12． Only a "cloud" away is how residents at the Dzilam reserve in Mexico think of the distance between Latin America and China，despite their geographical remoteness.
The "cloud" isn't the one hanging up in the sky.What the residents refer to is in fact cloud technology，which has been applied to wildlife conservation in this Mexican reserve.
In recent years，with cloud technology，technicians and ecologists from China and its trans-Pacific partners have been able to work hand in hand under the Belt and Road Initiative to protect endangered species and their habitats in Mexico.
Home to many endangered species in Mexico，the Dzilam reserve，known for its biodiversity-rich habitats，has started to witness ecosystem degradation （衰退） over the years due to human activities and climate change.In 2002，the jaguar，the only big cat left in the reserve，was listed as "Near Threatened" on the IUCN Red List.
Local communities and environmentalists have tried to track the habitat of jaguars，but have found it rather difficult：These animals are often hidden in vast forests，rarely leaving obvious traces，making it hard to observe them under natural conditions.
To better protect wild animals and biodiversity，the Tech4 Nature Mexico project was launched in the Dzilam reserve.The project collects video data from cameras recording 24 hours a day in the Dzilam reserve to monitor the biodiversity of the area and uses acoustic （声学的） technology to understand the existence of species and the health of ecosystems.The research team would use Huawei's Al model to identify the areas where the big cat appeared by identifying sounds，studying their living habits and developing management plans to protect the species.In addition，when a threat is detected，the system immediately sends a real-time alarm with the location to local forest guards through an app for rapid intervention.
From September 2022 to May 2023，local experts，with the help of Huawei Cloud，have identified 119 species in the Dzilam reserve，including 88 species of birds，22 species of mammals，five species of reptiles and four species of amphibians，of which 34 species are on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.They have also spotted at least five jaguars in the reserve.
Omelia Trejo，a resident of the Dzilam community，said their dream is "protecting jaguars for a lifetime，" but they worried that in the future，children might only see jaguars in photos. "Thanks to this project，our dream has come true."
（1）What does the underlined word "cloud" in paragraph 1 refer to？
A．A typical weather phenomenon.
B．A networked computing technology.
C．The cloud above the Dzilam reserve.
D．The distance from Mexico to China.
（2）What makes it difficult to track jaguars in the Dzilam reserve？
A．Lack of local community's support.
B．Disapproval from environmentalists.
C．A few clearly recognizable tracks.
D．Challenges in natural observation.
（3）What does the writer intend to convey in paragraph 7？
A．The urgent need for conservation.
B．The challenges of species protection.
C．The success of Tech4 Nature Mexico project.
D．The diversity of species in the Dzilam reserve.
（4）What is the resident's attitude towards the Tech4 Nature Mexico project？
A．Positive.
B．Doubtful.
C．Unconcerned.
D．Neutral.组卷：2引用：1难度：0.5 -

14．At some time in your life you may have a strong desire to do something strange or terrible．However，chances are that you don't act on your impulse （冲动），but let it pass instead You know that to commit the action is wrong in some way and that other people will not accept your behavior．
One of the newest taboos in American society is the topic of fat．Unlike many other taboos，fat is a topic that Americans talk about constantly．It's not taboo to talk about fat；it's taboo to be fat．The "in" look is thin，not fat．In the work world，most companies prefer youthful-looking executives to sell their image as well as their products to the public．The thin look is associated with youth，vigor and success．The fat person，on the other hand，is thought of as lazy and lacking in energy，self-discipline and self-respect．In an image-conscious society like the US，thin is "in" but fat is "out"．
It's not surprising that millions of Americans have become crazy about staying slim and "in shape"．The pursuit of a youthful physical appearance is not，however，the only reason for America's fascination with diet and exercise．Recent research has shown the importance of diet and exercise for personal health．As in most technologically developed nations，the life style of North Americans has changed dramatically during the course of the last century．Modern machines do all the physical labor that people were once forced to do by hand．Cars and buses transport us quickly from point to point．As a result of inactivity，people's bodies can easily become weak and vulnerable （易受攻击的）to disease．In an effort to avoid such a fate，millions of Americans are spending more of their time exercising．

A．thin is "lazy" but fat is "kind"
B．thin is "old" but fat is "youthful"
C．thin is "unsuccessful" but fat is "successful"
D．thin is "popular" but fat is "unpopular"
（4）Why are so many Americans exercising more？
A．To keep strong and free from disease．
B．To find good jobs in the companies．

15．The Power in Accepting Your Errors
It pays to be kind to yourself.A new study shows that being compassionate（同情的）with yourself when you make mistakes can reduce depression.
It is generally good to hold yourself to high standards and strive to do your best.But sometimes people have unrealistic views of what they should achieve.（1）Then when they make a mistake，they may be too unforgiving of that error.It is an unhealthy form of perfectionism.This is when a person views anything imperfect as unacceptable.（2）
However，self-compassion can help protect people from such negative impacts，a new study finds.（3）" It 's often easy to say kind and supportive things to our friends when things go wrong for them，"says Madeleine Ferrari.She's a psychologist at Australian Catholic University in Sydney."If we can say these things to ourselves，we will still reach our goals but will have better mental health，"she says.
（4）Ferrari's team wanted to see if self-compassion might weaken that link.The researchers surveyed 541 teenagers and 515 adults.They asked these people to fill out a set of three questionnaires and asked the participants to rate their levels of perfectionism，depression and self-compassion.
In both groups，people who were kinder to themselves were less likely to experience sadness and depression，the researchers found. （5）And that could be especially true for perfectionists.
A.They set standards that are too high.
B.Even the most intelligent and productive people make mistakes.
C.This is a good example of improving and changing based on a mistake.
D.Self-compassion is treating yourself the way you would treat a good friend.
E.Such feelings can increase stress and lead to symptoms（症状） of depression.
F.So learning self-compassion could improve treatment for those with depression.
G.Previous research has shown that people who are perfectionists are more likely to become depressed.组卷：14引用：4难度：0.5

18． Like millions of parents，we all hope that our children can be both physically and mentally healthy.We want them to study hard to achieve what the whole society is struggling for.We want them to obey what it thought to be right.However，what is really going on in the teenager's mind is always confusing，which will always challenge your bottom line.
When my son was a little boy？I was once a very happy motjye.air.He was adorable，willing to do anything I asked him to do.He was smart，always finishing the task ahead of scjye.aidule.He was kind，attending to me when I wasn't feeling myself.I felt how lucky I was to be his mother.To tell the truth，I didn't expect parenting a teenager to be this hard.
However，everything changed when he entered the middle school.We seemed to become totally strangers.In the recent days，my son and I battled every corner.About schoolwork.About his attitude.About his friends.About screen time.So on and so much.It seemed as if everything I had said was just met with an eye roll or "why".I didn't know whether it was so-called "the eye-roll stage".
On a recent drive home，after picking up my son from school，we went for a grocery pickup.As soon as the food was put into the grocery cart，he grabbed from the shelf a box of snack cakes，a processed food I'd allowed.As he stuffed yellow cakes and frosted coating into his mouth，I couldn't help wondering if this decision would come back to punish me with a teenage stomachache later in the evening.
But before we had even exited the parking lot，he asked me to pull over.I just wanted to get it done quickly.But then my son surprised me.
