Colette Maze has been playing the piano for over a century. She practices four hours a day and her fingers never tire. Music is her spiritual food. The piano, her passion and her friend, instills (注入) a sense of wonder in life each day, making her a source of inspiration to all.
Colette Maze was born in Paris in 1914. She started playing the piano at the age of five. As a young student, she was taught a technique by the legendary piano master Alfred Cortot, which focuses on relaxing the arms and hands when playing. To this day, the manner in which Colette Maze touches the piano while playing the tender music of Robert Schumann and Claude Debussy is still unusual and attractive.
Contrary to the social conventions of the times, Maze decided to pursue music as a career. “She decided she was an artist, a musician, not a housewife, so she married the piano,” said her son Fabrice Maze. Later she became a piano teacher and a single mother with great difficulty. The piano always brings her solace. “Music is an affective language and a poetic language. In music, there is everything—nature, emotion, love, dreams,” Colette Maze said.
Colette Maze’s talent and enthusiasm are priceless, especially during the times of the pandemic. “She helps improve morale (士气). Though at an old age, she is in good form for she has passion and can look after herself. Her sense of humor, her joy, and her love of life make other people smile,” Fabrice Maze said.
Colette Maze explained that life is not about being old or young. “Youth is inside us. Life is all about staying passionate and curious. You can’t let that slip away. If you appreciate what’s beautiful around you, you will find a sense of wonder in it,” she said. Every day she plays the piano, and her fingers lightly touch the keys, embracing life and engaging with the love and tenderness of her music.
4. How did Alfred Cortot influence Colette Maze?
A. He presented her with a special piano. B. He invited famous pianists to train her.
C. He took her to enjoy some piano concerts. D. He taught her a unique way to play the piano.
5. What does the underlined word “solace” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Pity. B. Comfort. C. Glory. D. Trouble.
6. What can we learn from Fabrice Maze’s words in Paragraph 4?
A. Colette has given up a lot for music. B. Colette is highly spoken of by music lovers.
C. Colette inspires others to live with strength. D. Colette feels concerned about other people’s life.
7. What lesson can we take from Colette Maze’s story?

Researchers in Japan have created smart kitchenware that relies on electricity to make food saltier and tastier without adding any extra salt.
Salt makes food taste so much better, but it’s also a very dangerous ingredient that, consumed heavily, can cause serious health problems like high blood pressure, heart disease and other diseases. But what if we could make food taste salty without using any salt? That’s what scientists at Meiji University and developer Kirin Holdings have been working on for several years now. Back in April, they developed the first breakthrough creation: A pair of smart chopsticks, but now they have a couple of commercial products ready to hit the shelves.
The smart chopsticks did work well. They made sodium (钠) from the food to the mouth of the user to create a strong sense of saltiness, but they had a big problem as well. Because of their limited surface, the chopsticks needed to be connected to a power source on the user’s forearm. However, the newest inventions designed by the team behind the project suffer from no such limitations.
A smart spoon and bowl recently showcased by the brilliant minds behind the project features enough space for a built-in battery, so you no longer have to worry about connecting them up to a power supply every time you use them.
According to reports, the new smart spoon and bowl can make food taste 1.5 times saltier, which is welcome news to the many people who love salty food but need to watch their salt intake for health reasons. What’s better is that the new smart kitchenware is ready for commercialization and is expected to hit the Japanese market early next year. The new products will be called Erekisoruto and will have built-in batteries. The price is unknown at this time.
8. What can we learn from Paragraph 2?
A. The more salt the better food. B. Too much salt can be harmful to health.
C. Salt is beneficial to the sense of taste. D. Salt is a very poisonous ingredient.
9. What is the disadvantage of smart chopsticks?
A. They are expensive. B. They are too heavy.
C. They are inconvenient. D. They are adjustable.
10. Who will welcome the smart kitchenware most?
A. The businessmen who work in Japan. B. The scientists who work on the smart field.
C. The researchers who like much saltier taste. D. The patients who need to take in less salt.
11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. Saltier Food with No Salt Added B. Why Do People Like Salty Food
C. Magical Kitchenware Hit the Market D. How Much Salt Do People Need Daily
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. D 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。日本的研究人员发明了一种智能厨具，这种厨具依靠电力使食物更咸、更美味，而不需要添加任何额外的盐。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段首句“Salt makes food taste so much better, but it’s also a very dangerous ingredient that, consumed heavily, can cause serious health problems like high blood pressure, heart disease and other diseases. (盐让食物更美味，但它也是一种非常危险的成分，如果摄入过多，会导致严重的健康问题，比如高血压、心脏病和其他疾病。)”可知，盐如果摄入过多，会导致严重的健康问题。故选B。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段第二三句“They made sodium (钠) from the food to the mouth of the user to create a strong sense of saltiness, but they had a big problem as well. Because of their limited surface, the chopsticks needed to be connected to a power source on the user’s forearm. (它们将钠从食物中到使用者的口中，以制造强烈的咸味，但它们也遇到了一个大问题。由于其表面有限，筷子需要与使用者前臂上的电源相连。)”可知，使用智能筷子时，筷子需要与使用者前臂上的电源相连，这会让使用筷子的人觉得很不方便。故选C。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据末段首句“According to reports, the new smart spoon and bowl can make food taste 1.5 times saltier, which is welcome news to the many people who love salty food but need to watch their salt intake for health reasons. (据报道，新的智能勺子和碗可以使食物的味道咸1.5倍，这对许多喜欢吃咸食物但出于健康原因需要注意盐摄入量的人来说是个好消息。)”可知，那些需要少吃盐的病人会欢迎智能勺子和碗。故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据首段“Researchers in Japan have created smart kitchenware that relies on electricity to make food saltier and tastier without adding any extra salt. (日本的研究人员发明了一种智能厨具，这种厨具依靠电力使食物更咸、更美味，而不需要添加任何额外的盐。)”可知，本文主要介绍一种智能厨具，依靠电力使食物更咸、更美味，而不需要添加任何额外的盐。故选A。

To deal with a big environmental problem, chemists in the Czech Republic have been thinking small. They are making microrobots with special capabilities. Each new microrobot is no bigger than the tip of a sharpened pencil. When sunlight hits them, they produce chemical reactions that propel (推动) them through water in a specific direction. When they find a piece of plastic, they start to break it down. When the light goes out, they let go and are free to be used again.
Chemist Martin Pumera led the project. He studies ways to build microrobots. About a decade ago, scientists began developing tiny robots that could move in the water. Then they decided to make them do something useful. Pumera chose to focus on the problem posed by microplastics.
“We have a big plastic pollution problem now. Using less plastic is the most important step. After that, we should do some cleaning. This is where I see a role for Pumera’s robots. They’re a really interesting idea to help with cleanup efforts down the road,” says chemist Sherri Mason.
Pumera’s final goal is to make environmentally friendly robots that can be used anywhere in the world. He supposes that at first they might be the most useful in plants that treat wastewater. There they can remove the plastic before it reaches open water. His group is not there yet. But they are getting close. And they want to make the tiny garbage collectors reusable.
In fact, Pumera says they still have a long way to go. There are many types of plastics. And even these microrobots are unlikely to succeed in degrading (降解) them all. The researchers also have not yet shown how safe this system is for the environment. Blackiston, a biologist who did not work on the project, says, “They’ll need a lot of testing to show that they’re safe in open waterways.” But he thinks one day, microrobots can play a big role in a worldwide cleanup effort.
12. What is the microrobot used for?
A. Cleaning up plastic pollution in water. B. Transforming solar energy into power.
C. Aiding chemists in carrying out experiments. D. Recording the movements of underwater creatures.
13. What is probably Sherri Mason’s attitude towards microrobots?
A. Unclear. B. Doubtful. C. Worried. D. Supportive.
14. What is Pumera’s hope for microrobots?
A. They will replace other cleaning robots. B. They will function normally without light.
C. They will be improved for wider use. D. They will be highly praised for their operating systems.
15. What does the last paragraph mainly imply?
A. Microrobots have reached an advanced level.
B. There are still many challenges concerning microrobots.
C. Microplastics are increasing in various environments.
D. It’s wise to use microrobots in open waterways now.
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. C 15. B
【解析】

【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据首段首句“To deal with a big environmental problem, chemists in the Czech Republic have been thinking small. (为了应对一个重大的环境问题，捷克共和国的化学家们一直在从小事做起。)”以及第四五句“When sunlight hits them, they produce chemical reactions that propel (推动) them through water in a specific direction. When they find a piece of plastic, they start to break it down. (当阳光照射到它们身上时，它们会产生化学反应，推动它们沿着特定的方向穿过水中。当他们找到一块塑料时，他们就开始分解它。)”可知，为了解决环境问题，微型机器人被用来在水中分解塑料。故选A。
【13题详解】

【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段首句“Pumera’s final goal is to make environmentally friendly robots that can be used anywhere in the world. (Pumera的最终目标是制造可以在世界任何地方使用的环保机器人。)”可知，Pumera希望微型机器人可以在世界任何地方使用，有更广泛的使用。故选C。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据末段前四句“In fact, Pumera says they still have a long way to go. There are many types of plastics. And even these microrobots are unlikely to succeed in degrading (降解) them all. The researchers also have not yet shown how safe this system is for the environment. (事实上，Pumera说他们还有很长的路要走。塑料有很多种。即使是这些微型机器人也不太可能成功地将它们全部降解。研究人员还没有证明这个系统对环境有多安全。)”可知，微型机器人分解塑料这条路还有很长要走，面临着塑料分类繁多以及机器人对环境来说是否安全等挑战。故选B。

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。
Many years ago, at Christmas time, I parked my car in the town centre on my way to the post office to post my Christmas cards. It was the last posting day for Christmas cards if they were to be received before Christmas.
As I came out of the car park, I saw a young boy probably about 12 years of age on the other side of the road. He was alone and as he was walking, he was crying and holding his right hand side. I thought some bigger boys had perhaps bullied him and he was in pain. I had to go to his aid and see if I could help him.
He told me that his big sister who was a nurse had bought him a combined birthday/Christmas present. It was an Alpha Egg Dictionary. He had been allowed to use it and only had it days when he dropped it and broke the screen!
The little guy was upset, tears rolling down his face as he told all this to me. My heart ached for him. It was clear he valued his present and knew that this was a lot of money for his sister to spend on him. He’d been to an electronic dictionary repair shop and they’d told him it would be £80 to get a new screen.
I had to help. But it was very close to Christmas and I had no cash with me. I once made contact with guys in an e-dictionary repair shop so I took him there, I knew the guys would have helped me out and my intention was to get the screen on the dictionary fixed and I would pay for it the following week. I knew they would trust me on this. I brought him with me. However, the shop was closed! I had one of the guys mobile numbers but I couldn’t get in contact with him. What next? What could I do now?

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】范文
I brought him to an ATM machine (自动取款机). The moment the boy saw the cash machine, he thought curiously and his face showed surprise. I told him softly, “You wait here for me!” I slowly reached into my pocket, pulled out my bank card, and took out all the money in my account. I gave him my only £20 and made some excuses as to why I could just give him so little.
The next day, I received a call from the boy’s father. He thanked me profusely for helping his son in such a difficult time. He expressed his gratitude and said he was deeply touched by my kindness. He explained that their family was going through a tough financial situation, and my act of generosity had made a significant difference in their lives. Looking back, that encounter with the boy at the ATM was not just a random act of kindness; it was a life-changing experience for both the boy and me. It taught me the value of empathy and the impact a single act of kindness can have on someone's life.
