15、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。
Mrs. Thompson often reminded her daughter, Amy, that helping with housework was not only a responsibility, but also a way of showing care for the family. But to Amy, household chores were a tiresome burden and a waste of her precious time. Every time her mother asked her to wash the dishes after dinner, Amy would protest, "It's unfair! Why should I have to do the dishes?" Usually, Mrs. Thompson would sigh and do it herself.
One Monday evening, as Amy got up from the table, Mrs. Thompson began coughing violently and her face grew very pale. "I'm not feeling well," she said and went to her bedroom without even mentioning the dishes.
Amy was about to leave the dirty plates in the sink as usual, but something stopped her. She remembered her mother's tired eyes and weak voice, and it struck her how tired her mother had looked lately — doing a demanding job and taking care of the household all by herself.
Quietly, Amy walked her mother to her room, and then returned to the kitchen. She stared at the mountain of dishes, took a deep breath, and rolled up her sleeves. Just as she was drying the last plate, she heard a gentle voice from behind.
"Amy?" Mrs. Thompson, who was standing in the doorway, her eyes wide with surprise and warmth, said very gently.
Amy turned around and, feeling a little embarrassed, she mumbled, "Well... Since you're not feeling well, I thought I'd help out tonight."
"Thank you, sweetheart," Mrs. Thompson said very gently. "That means a lot to me." That night, as Amy lay in bed, she couldn't stop thinking about the gentleness in her mother's voice.
"Maybe, Mom was right," Amy thought. "Doing housework isn't just a chore. It is a way to show love."

17、阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
China's Huawei Technologies said at an annual customer event on Thursday that it would roll out the world's most powerful AI computing architectures in late 2026 and late 2027. The new architectures, are called "superpods", can combine the power of thousands of chips.
"This is significant breakthrough. It signals that Huawei can rely less powerful China-made chips to keep pace with the global leaders such as Open AI and Google without access to the world's most powerful chips, (notable) those from America's market-leading Nvidia," said Charlie Dai, an analyst at the research firm Forrester Research.
In the fast (develop) field of artificial intelligence, the(compete) between America and China is very hot. The American government has been restricting what can (sell) to China, including (it) most advanced chips. To meet the long-term demand for computing power, one of the (strategy) is to use many more chips and develop new architectures (make) them work well together.

18、In Alaska, many villages have no roads connecting them with hospitals in the cities. People depend on local1 and primary care doctors. I2 one young physician, Dr. Adam McMahan, on his weekly visit to the clinic in the village of Klukwan where he has been3 medicine for three years. Klukwan is4 by fewer than 100 people in all, with a few hundred more in the5 area.
McMahan can trace (追溯) his6 to become a physician back to a series of7 he saw in a magazine when he was a teenager. His grandfather was a doctor and had an issue of Life magazine on a shelf in his office. The photo story by Eugene Smith, Country Doctor, showed a devoted doctor8 his patients in rural Colorado.
"Those pictures were really9," McMahan says. "The doctor's work is10 to what we do now here in Alaska."
The Klukwan clinic has two exam rooms, a dental suite and a small11 for basic tests. It is open on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
"I am trying my best to help the patients with12 resources," McMahan says. "I can't get a CT scan done in 10 minutes."
The13 of regular primary care like this is to keep people out of the emergency room. But in such a small, remote town,14 injured or ill patients have to be sent to the nearest hospital by a helicopter.
"In part because of the15 transportation, Alaska has the highest health care costs in the country," McMahan adds.

19、In a fast-paced modern world, stress builds up quickly. It doesn't just affect your mood, but also harms your health. Here are the things you can do right now — and the science behind why they work.
Take deep breaths.. Studies show that deep breaths can lower blood pressure and slow heart rate. It also reduces the stress hormone associated with a range of issues, including poor sleep and brain fog. Controlled breathing has even been linked to better emotional regulation and memory.
Hug it out — or hold a hand.. Even a quick hug or a gentle touch can increase the release of a chemical that helps reduce stress and foster feelings of connection. In one study, couples who hugged for 20 seconds before a stressful task had lower heart rates and blood pressure than those who didn't.
. Research shows that self-touch — such as placing a hand over your chest, rubbing your arms, or gently touching your face — also works equally well.
Take a 5-minute walk. This simple movement brings more blood flow and oxygen to the part of the brain responsible for focus, planning, and decision-making. At the same time, it activates the neural network in our brain that is strongly linked to daydreaming and creative insight.
Step outside for sunlight and fresh air. Just a few minutes in natural light can improve heart rate variability and boost mood. One review found that the most dramatic improvements in both mood and heart rate variability happen within the first two minutes outdoors.? Actually, any green space will do!
A. No parks nearby
B. Feeling very stressed
C. Touch matters for human beings
D. Deep breathing is a proven tool for clearer thinking
E. But we don't need another person to get similar benefits
F. Few things affect the nerve system as immediately — or as powerfully — as deep breathing
G. So short walks are really effective to reduce your stress when you are doing such activities

20、Director Ken Burns is a great explainer, whose documentaries usually explore the story of America from fresh angles, so that we can appreciate it on a deeper level. Now, he is telling the story again through the soundtrack of country music in his new documentary Country Music.
You may think it would be a relatively easy project: Beyond the common wisdom that Hank Williams was country music's first great songwriter, there's a lot the average citizen doesn't know about the other performers. So it would be good enough to include as many clips (片段) of their performances as possible.
Indeed, there are many such entertaining moments in Burns' Country Music, including a clip in which Dolly Parton explains how her 1974 hit I Will Always Love You was inspired by her break with Porter Wagoner, the singing partner who launched her career.
Burns' Country Music begins in the 1920s, with pioneering producer Ralph Peer recording country artists for the first time, and continues on, in eight two-hour parts, up through the 1990s. (Burns seems to have thrown up his hands before entering the 21st century. Perhaps he feels that it is almost impossible to explain "bro country" or the rise of Taylor Swift.) The production also includes many interviews of country music stars who keep praising each other. Pretty soon, all the back-scratching becomes tiresome.
There are also times when some of Burns' best ideas aren't well-presented. The film's second hour has a promising section about the comedian Minnie Pearl, a woman too often ignored in surveys. Yet, after showing her as a college-educated humorist, the documentary just gives her a bit of audio. I was really shocked. In general, Burns presents what used to be called the "Great Man" theory of history: The biggest stars and the most obvious ideas are the ones considered most worthy.
In short, Burns goes wide, not deep in Country Music. It's rare for any musical clip to last more than 20 seconds, making it impossible for a singer to make an impression on viewers who are unfamiliar with the singer's work.
(1)、What can we know about Hank Williams?A、He was largely ignored by music critics. B、He helped Dolly Parton launch her career. C、He is a pioneering country music songwriter. D、He recorded country artists for the first time.(2)、Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word "back-scratching" in paragraph 4?A、Short clips. B、Rare soundtracks. C、Joint efforts. D、Favorable remarks.(3)、What message does the author really want to convey in paragraph 5?A、Minnie Pearl was treated unfairly by critics. B、He is dissatisfied with the documentary. C、He dislikes the "Great Man" theory of history. D、The most famous stars should be the focus.(4)、What is the best title for the text?A、Ken Burns Goes Wide, but Not Deep, in His Country Music B、Plenty but Rare Musical Clips Can Be Seen in Country Music C、Country Music Explores the Story of America From Fresh Angles D、Musician Minnie Pearl Eventually Gets a Fair Review in Country Music
