第二部分 阅读理解（共两节, 满分50分）
第一节 （共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Once a mnth, I vlunteer at a meal center t help serve fd t peple wh are in need. Despite the many ther things that I need t d, I really lk frward t meeting and serving these peple, even if nly briefly. Althugh my mtivatin begins with wanting t help thers and be grateful fr what have been given, it is jy that helps bring me back when I am very busy. I first nticed this sme time ag: at the end f ur shift (轮班), after the kitchen and dining rm have been cleaned up, I wuld experience a lightness f being.
A few years ag, as I was researching hw kindness affected health, I came t learn that vlunteerism was assciated with a markedly lwer risk f dying. One recent and large Eurpean study fund that self-reprted health scres were apparently better in vlunteers than nn-vlunteers. Depending n the study, the decrease in death rates ranged between 20 t 60 percent r s.
Hw culd vlunteering decrease the risk f death? There are several factrs at play. The first, and mst primary, is decreased symptms f stress and uplifted md. Secndly, peple wh vlunteer regularly als make mre effrt t take care f themselves. Finally, peple wh vlunteer may be mre physically active. Vlunteers have an bvius increase in walking each day cmpared t thse wh did nt vlunteer.
T try t tie this tgether, vlunteering likely exerts (施加) its psitive health effects by cnnecting peple t thers and t an activity that they find meaningful. Achieving cnnectin, purpse and meaning is critical t reducing stresses f life-particularly lneliness. Since stress is a majr cause f disease, especially heart disease, the ability t satisfy the need fr cnnectin, purpse, and meaning can bring abut beneficial changes fr peple. And when there is purpse and we are cnnected t thers, we take care f urselves.
21. Hw des the authr feel abut ding a vlunteer jb?

C. Vlunteerism's psitive effect n vlunteers' health.
D. A study n vlunteerism in sme Eurpean cuntries.
23. What des the underlined wrd "critical" in the last paragraph mean?
A. Negative.B. Different.C. Cntrary.D. Imprtant.

"We fund that size was nt nly shrinking fr thse sensitive species-it was declining fr everyne, "said researcher Vitek Jirinec f Luisiana State University. Jirinec's findingsare cntained in a new study published in the jurnal Science Advances last Friday.
The study examined 77 species ver a 40-year perid, during which time the rainfrest had becme warmer. It fund they were rapidly evlving perhaps because smaller birds remve heat mre efficiently as they have mre surface area in relatin t vlume. Brian Weeks f the University f Michigan explained it this way: "Yu culd imagine lts f little ice cubes in a glass f water, as ppsed t ne big ice cube, and the little ice cubes melt faster because smaller things have larger surface area-t-vlume ratis(比),s they exchange heat mre quickly. "Weeks didn't wrk n this particular study, but he did research the size f mre than50 species f migratry (迁徙的) birds in Nrth America a few years back.

The tw studies strengthen the idea that birds all ver the planet, migratry r nt, may be changing shape due t a warming climate. Weeks said these srts f changes shuld cncern all f us.

In the Hllywd industry, mst f the studis are using AI t make mvies fr varius reasns such as getting the actrs ut f danger, replacing the actrs in different scenes, frming appealing atmsphere t enhance (增强) the views, etc.
Directrs and prducers are using VFX (Visual effects), animatins and AI t make a mdel that lks like the actr and replaces the actr's place.
