What she did not expect to see was an actual superhero at work.But thats exactly what she spotted when a man in a red and blue outfit using a chainsaw to cut a tree that had fallen across her road caught her attention. “I thought, OMG! Spider-Man!” she said. “I was shocked. I couldnt believe what I was seeing.”Hanbury called her family outside to see too, and her husband Alan was able to snap two pictures of the mysterious good Samaritan. “Spider-Man worked the tree, then swung off and jumped in his little black pickup with a friend and flew off,” said Hanbury. “I do not know why he was dressed as Spider-Man, nor do I know the name or identity of the masked man.”Hanburys own two daughters, Ciara, 22, and Skye, 21, are grown, and most of the neighborhood withdrew before the storm, so unfortunately, no children were around to witness the Spider-Man in action. However, Hanbury said he was a welcome surprise and provided a laugh that lifted the spirits of those who experienced the scary storm. “It was a silver lining after waiting a long week for the hurricane to arrive,” she said. “People were terrified and exhausted.”Thankfully, the hurricane wasnt as bad as it was predicted for Hanburys area. “We still have lots of people without power, and my neighbors generators(发电机) are running at the moment. But for the most part, we just have high numbers of trees and power lines down with much debris, but everyone is safe!” she said.Now that her photos are going viral(疯传), Hanbury hopes Spider-Man knows he is cheering the spirits of people in Bradenton and around the world. “To Spider-Man, I would like to say, Thank you!” she said. “Im glad we have real-life heroes.”24.

Children Wish the Spider-Man to Give a Welcome SurpriseCChanging weather pallerns, stronger storms, longer droughts- these are just a few signs that our climate is changing rapidly.Recently, lawmakers in New Zealand signed the Zero Carbon Bill, which lays out a path for the country to reduce its carbon emissions to zero by 2050.Net-zero is the balance between the amount of greenhouse gases a country releases into the atmosphere and how much is removed from the atmosphere.A reasonable way to achieve net-zero is to divide the goal into two parts. To reduce emissions, countries can gradually adapt their economies to be less carbon dependent. This can be done by developing renewable energy, improving transportation and food production, stopping deforestation and restoring lands, reducing food wastage, and consuming less meat.Countries can then address remaining emissions with carbon removal, a process that removes greenhouse gases directly from the atmosphere. This can be done by planting more trees and developing technologies that capture and store carbon.New Zealands Zero Carbon Bill aims to reduce fossil fuel usage and replace it with renewable energy sources. The government has also focused on promoting electric vehicles, public transportation, biking, and walking. Additionally, New Zealand is committed to planting 1 billion trees by 2028.The country wants to include agriculture into its climate solution. The government will tax farmers who do not decrease their carbon emissions by 2022. Currently, agriculture in New Zealand accounts for over half of its greenhouse gas emissions.Methane is a greenhouse gas produced by the decomposition of organic matter from crops and livestock such as sheep and cattle known as biogenic(生物的) methane. New Zealand will reduce biogenic emissions by 10% before 2030 and between 24% to 47% before 2050. Here , the country is being denounced for not doing enough as methane is a much stronger greenhouse gas, even though it does not stay in the atmosphere as long as carbon dioxide.Sixty countries have already committed to net-zero, yet they only make up 11% of global emissions. We need convince our leaders that our planet cannot survive if we dont take action.28. What plan is New Zealand going to carry out?A. To find the causes of climate change.B. To limit its temperature rise to 2 degrees,C. To record the signs of changing climate.D. To make zero amount of carbon emissions.29. Which of the following helps remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere?A. Eating less meat.B. Planting more trees.C. Throwing away less food.D. Walking more to work or school.30. What is probably releasing most greenhouse gases in New Zealand?A. Transportation.B. Tourism.C. Industry.D. Agriculture.31. What does the underlined word “denounced” probably mean?A. Blamed.B. Chosen.C. IgnoredD. Recorded.DWhen it comes to work, workers, and jobs, much of the concern of the modern age boils down to the fear that were witnessing the final stage of the game, and that there will be nowhere for humans to withdraw as machines take over the last few tasks. The most recent example comes from the use of artificial intelligence(AI). Is there no area of human experience that cant be replaced by AI? And if not, what is left for humans to do except the tasks involved in taking care of the machines?At the heart of this concern is our desire for good jobs jobs that make the most of workers natural abilities and where the work provides the worker with motivation and work-life balance. More importantly, good jobs support workers in learning by doing and in so doing, deliver benefits on three levels: to the worker, who gains in personal development and job satisfaction; to the organization, which reforms as staff find new problems to solve and opportunities to pursue; and to the community as a whole, which harvests the economic benefits of hosting positive organizations and workers. This is what makes good jobs productive for the organization, as well as engaging and fulfilling for the worker. Does the ongoing advance of AI threaten to get rid of all the learning, creativity, and meaning that make a job a good job? Certainly, some have blamed technology for just such an outcome. Headlines today often express concern over technological innovation(革新) resulting in bad jobs for humans, or even the complete disappearance of certain professions. Some fear that further technology advancement in the workplace will result in jobs where employees are being asked to work in split times or for longer periods over more days. The problem here isnt the technology; rather, its the way the technology is used and more than that, the way people think about using it.32. What is the passage mainly about?A. The human fears in the age of AI.B. Human experiences were replaced by AI.C. How to take care of the AI machines.D. The relations among work, workers, and jobs.33. What jobs are supposed to be good according to the passage?A. The ones that provide basic benefits.B. The ones that require no economic return.C. Those that dont bring new problems to workers.D. Those that offer chances to progress professionally.34. How do news media respond to the development of AI?A. Supportive.B. Optimistic.C. Negative.D. Ambiguous.35. What will the author probably talk about next?A. The proper attitude towards AI.B. The future jobs humans will do.C. The possible application of AI in the future.D. The approaches to handling the issues of AI.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Ever since the University of Bologna in Haly was founded in 1088 as the first modern university, most people have associated great universities,with major cities. 36 Colleges and universities in the U.S., though, have followed a different pattern. To be sure, leading universities such as the University of Chicago and Columbia University in New York City call major urban centers home. 37 In some cases, the university is, for all practical purposes, the whole town. 38 Many early colleges and universities were founded by religious(宗教的) groups that sought to educate students far from the distractions of city life. When Harvard University was founded in 1636 by Congregationalist Church ministers, Cambridge, where the university is now located, was quite separate from Boston. Moreover, when the U.S. began building a network of public universities in the 1860s to bring agricultural and technical research and know-how to the westward spreading frontier, most were located in small towns. 39 Given the huge diversity of U.S. higher education, the message for international students shopping for a great university is doubled. 40 Dont be put off if you have never heard of the city or town where a school is located. Top-rated colleges and universities located in lesser known places may amaze you in an unimaginable manner with their high quality and a significant number of their international students.A. Bloomington is also a great college town.B. Think the Sorbonne in Paris or Peking University.C. Set your sights beyond the most well-known schools.D. One reason: there were no major cities there at the time.E. There was no better recipe for popularity than small campuses.F. Part of the explanation for this lies in Americas distinctive history.G. But many are located in cities and towns most people have never heard of.第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。What is a true winner?
