It was nt until phtgrapher Rita Nannini left New Yrk that she grew fascinated by the city’s;s subways. While living in Manhattan fr sme 15 years in the 1980s and early 1990s, Nannini nly cmmuted(通勤）n the ne train-given the subway system's bad reputatin.But after relcating t New Jersey fr several years where subway is nt an ptin, Nannini fund that absence did make the heart grw fnder- maybe even fr pizza rats. During her visit back t New Yrk, Nannini ndded, nticing imprvements in the subway's facilities.
While Nannini was waiting fr a train, a bench n the platfrm ppsite caught her attentin due t the ever changing faces and characters. They were peple f different accents, clrs and beliefs. They were frm all walks f life, a diverse mix f New Yrkers all there fr their wn different reasns. Having learned the teenagers’; ppular "End f the Line" challenge-barding trains at randm and riding them until their final destinatin, Nannini decided t visit every first and last stp acrss the NY subway's lines with her belved camera.
Nannini's "End f the Line" experience saw her traveling sme 665 miles acrss 26 rutes in New Yrk city. She tk ver 8,000 phts f the final statins, as well as the cmmunities they served. In many cases, she rde the rutes tw r three times ver t ensure she gt" the sht"." The prject really shws me hw imprtant the subway is, and hw sustainable it makes ur lives," she said.
"It’s ften said that my phts shw the end f the lines-the last stps,"she said."But the end f the line is indeed the start fr s many peple. That made me think abut wh the peple and the cmmunities that live at the tw ends are and what it is that the subway means t them."Nannini was prud f her set f images directly challenging the traditins f stry telling, which eched bth the bredm and excitement f travel n tracks.
Nannini enjyed taking her time, starting her challenge in 2013 and nly shting the final phts last year. Her first mngraph n the terminal stps f the NY subway was released in April 2023.
" When yu drive in the suburbs, yu dn't have thse encunters," she cntinued." Peple enter yur life n the subway. That's what strikes me mst n my jurney n tracks."24. Hw did Nannini find the New Yrk subway during her revisit?
A. It turned ut fine.
B. It was depressing.
C. It still held the same bad reputatin.
D. It wuld be her nly cmmuting ptin.

A. The diversity f New Yrkers' daily life.
B. The inspiratin fr Nannini's subway shts.
C. The ppularity f "End f the Line" challenge.
D. The challenges f Nannini's jb as a phtgrapher.
26. What can we infer frm Nannini's "End f the Line" experience?
A. Her way f telling stries is traditinal.
B. She expressed sympathy fr the subway riders.
C. Her phtgraphy is highly expected by the encunters.
D. She fund life n tracks was mre interesting than life n wheels.

B. The Rad Hme: Rita Nannini's Recrd f her Subway Ride
C. Last Stp t New Start: A Phtgrapher's Rediscvery f NY Subways

Pick up any packaged prcessed fd, and there's a decent chance that ne f its listed ingredients will be "natural flavr". The ingredient sunds gd, particularly in cntrast t"artificial flavr". But what exactly des natural flavr mean? It refers t extracts(提取物） gt frm natural surces like plants, meat r seafd. When cnsumers see "natural flavr" n a label, they are unlikely t assume that smene is squeezing the juice frm ranges int their bttle. They knw even thugh natural flavr must cme frm natural surces, it needn't all cme frm the plant r meat. Fr example, range flavr might cntain nt nly range extract, but als extracts frm bark and grass. Nr is the cmmn belief true that ingredients extracted frm nature are necessarily safer than smething artificially made.
S if flavrs like range are needed, why nt just use ranges? The answer cmes dwn t"availability, cst and sustainability", accrding t flavr chemist Gary Reineccius f the University f Minnesta. "If yu're ging t use all yur grapes n grape sda," Reineccius says, "yu dn't have any grapes fr wine making; the prducts are ging t be exrbitant; besides, what d yu d with the by-prducts yu create after yu've squeezed all the juice ut f the grape?"Actually, while chemists make natural flavrs by extracting chemicals frm natural ingredients, artificial flavrs are made by creating the same chemicals artificially. The reasn why cmpanies bther t use natural flavrs rather than artificial flavrs is simple: marketing. "Many f these prducts have health titles," says Platkin, prfessr frm Hunter Cllege. "Cnsumers may be talked t believe prducts with natural flavrs are healthier, thugh they're nutritinally n different frm thse with artificial flavrs. Natural flavrs may invlve mre frest clear-cutting and carbn emissins frm transprt than flavrs created in the lab."
Platkin suggests getting mre transparent labeling n packaging that describes exactly what the natural r artificial flavrs are, s cnsumers are nt misled int buying ne prduct ver anther because f "natural flavrs". Reineccius als ffers sme simple guidance: "Dn't buy anything because it says 'natural flavrs'. Buy it because yu like it."
28. Which is a misunderstanding abut the "natural flavr" juice accrding t paragraph 1?
A. It cmes frm 100% riginal fruit.
B. It is nthing but advertising tricks.
C. It certainly cntains extracts made in the lab.
D. It is abslutely safer than juice with artificial flavrs.
29. What des the underlined wrd "exrbitant" in paragraph 2 prbably mean?
A. Ppular.
B. Expensive.
C. Durable.
D. Innvative.
30. Why d cmpanies use natural flavrs in their prducts?
A. T cut the csts.
B. T prmte the sales.
C. T advcate a healthy diet.
D. T avid fd safety issues.
31. What can we cnclude frm the text?
A. Gary and Platkin hld ppsite perspectives.
B. Natural flavrs are mre envirnmentally-friendly.
C. Custmers are misled fr ignring labels n packaging.
D. Natural and artificial flavrs are mre alike than yu think.
Influenced by factrs like schl funding, sprts facilities, teacher resurces and safety cncerns, traditinal physical educatin was limited t static(静态的） scenes and clsed gyms and playgrunds, which lacked interactin and feedback functins. PE curriculum was als restricted t basic sprts like ball games, track and field and gymnastics. Hwever, the emergence and applicatin f new technlgies like virtual reality (VR), 3D technlgy, greatly expand and innvate sprts scenes, prviding pssibilities fr the cnstructin f a flexible "n-site, n-campus, nline" integrated new sprts wrld.
IT can build nline virtual learning envirnments fr students, creating teaching scenes hard t achieve in physical wrld. Many schls have already partnered with technlgy cmpanies t create different teaching scenes using digital sprts prducts. The University f Suth Flrida has cperated with the VR sprts training cmpany Sense Arena, allwing students t practice tennis n its glbally pineering VR tennis training platfrm. Students use the Meta Quest 2 headset and VR tuching racket(球拍） which imitates the weight and feel f a real tennis racket. The platfrm features 35 training mdes imitating varius scenes in real-life tennis matches, including crwd nise, dazzling sunlight, shadws and wind. Athletes can engage in varius frms f training, such as skill practice, technical analysis and match imitatin. Such virtual sprts teaching space further enhances the experience f PE learning.
Technlgy-based physical educatin nt nly serves rdinary students' physical health but als addresses the needs f special grups in sprts, especially students wh cannt participate in regular PE classes due t physical, psychlgical r scial adaptatin issues. Many schls ffer specialized sprts prgrams t disabled students, like the "Pathways t Inclusin" prgram launched by the University f Queensland, which tailrs varius sprts activities t different disabilities,such as blind ftball and wheelchair hckey. This is made pssible with the supprt f sprts technlgy, as different symptms require the use f different sprts equipment.
Thrugh scientific, healthy and jyful educatinal cncepts, technlgy-empwered PE classes cnvey the values f creating and enjying a persnalized experience, develping a sprts educatin where everyne participates and benefits.
32. Hw d new technlgies change traditinal PE class accrding t paragraph 1?
A. By investing mre in basic sprts.
B. By cmbining it with academic study.
C. By making dynamic PE class pssible.
D. By replacing PE teachers with AI teachers.
33. Which f the fllwing services can Sense Arena prvide?
A. Real-life tennis matches.
B.Virtual headsets and rackets.
C. Imitative distracting cnditins.
D. Sufficient sprts space n campus.
34. What des "Pathways t Inclusin" prgram feature?
A. Prfessinal knwledge abut psychlgy.
B. Technlgy-assisted sprts fr the disabled.
C. Interactive activities with rdinary students.
D. Persnalized medical treatment fr disabilities.
35. What is the authr's writing purpse f the text?
A. T advertise a new VR prduct.
B. T raise public awareness f physical educatin.
C. T stress the imprtance f equality amng students.
D.T intrduce a new applicatin f technlgy in PE class.

The very first speech I had given changed my life mre than I culd ever have imagined. I was a third-grader when I chse Susan B. Anthny t be the tpic. When I gt the assignment, I went t the library and began researching the Wmen's Fight fr the Right t Vte. I never really thught abut a time when wmen had n vting rights and that their pinins didn't cunt. I learned that Susan B. Anthny led the fight t give wmen a say in ur sciety. She vercame a lt f bstacles in rder t d that.
Abut a week after giving my schl speech, my mm read a newspaper article abut a statue hnring Susan B. Anthny. The prblem was that few peple ever gt t see the statue. It was dedicated(落成）in 1921, but within twenty-fur hurs it was taken dwn t the basement and stred where it had remained fr nearly eighty years.
When I read that article, I was getting angry! This statue belnged in a place f hnr. I felt that it shuld be in the Rtunda, alng with the statues f Abraham Lincln, Martin Luther King Jr. and Gerge Washingtn.
The article asked fr dnatins because it wuld take $74,000 t mve the thirteen-tn statue ut f the basement. I decided t write a letter with a self-addressed envelpe asking my relatives and friends t send a Susan B. Anthny cin r a $1 bill t me t cntribute t the Wmen’s Vting Statue Campaign. Every day I ran t the mailbx after schl. But a mnth later, my piggy bank was still far frm full.
S every night, after my hmewrk, I wrte mre letters at the kitchen table. Pretty sn the whle family gt invlved in the prject. My seven-year-ld brther, David, prepared stamps and envelpes. My mther and grandmther fund addresses fr peple I wanted t cntact and my dad drve me arund and gave me tns f encuragement when I spke t big grups.

The piggy bank grew heavier with each passing day, filled with cins, bills and the cllective spirit f a cmmunity cming tgether fr a nble cause. It wasn't lng befre I raised $ 2,000. With a gd start, I began t visualize that statue up in the Rtunda next t the greatest Americans in histry.My speech has captured the widespread attentin since a TV statin reached ut t me.
