Yunnan Wildlife Park recently launched a unique recruitment (招募) drive for “wild people”, capturing widespread attention on domestic social media. Although the recruitment coincided with the National Day holiday and the Mid-Autumn Festival, the chief purpose was to showcase a harmonious coexistence between people, animals and the natural world, rather than simply boosting ticket sales or introducing new animals.
The announcement, posted by the Chuncheng Evening News ahead of the National Day holiday, invited individuals who felt stressed and desired a connection with nature to apply. It was required that applicants should have a basic understanding of animal behavior to qualify for the role. The selected candidates would engage in various activities, such as feeding animals, leading nature walks, and sharing fun facts about wildlife. On their first day, the newly hired performers, dressed in special clothes, quickly drew large crowds of visitors. Their enthusiastic interactions created a lively and engaging atmosphere, making the park a popular destination during the holiday.
Fifteen candidates were selected through an online written test, followed by an in-person interview at the park. During the interview, candidates interacted with animals as if the animals were the interviewers, adding a unique twist to the selection process. One memorable moment was a performer feeding alpacas (羊驼) special “mooncakes” made from cornmeal, oats, and wild vegetables, free of sugar and oil. Besides, this activity, held to celebrate the upcoming Mid-Autumn Festival, created a festive atmosphere and delighted visitors.
Park officials stated that this initiative was part of their efforts to showcase a harmonious coexistence between people, animals, and nature. The event not only provided a relaxed and engaging experience for visitors but also highlighted the importance of environmental and animal protection. Through these activities, the park aimed to educate the public about the importance of protection and the joy of connecting with nature.

The treating power of music is being greatly changed through combination with AI, creating more exact treatments. It was clearly shown at the AI Conference, where the Shanghai Conservatory of Music presented its new AI music therapy pod (疗愈舱) to worldwide visitors.
The new pod creates a personal healing space through advanced technology. Users wear special checking equipment while resting in specially-made seats. During the session, people can watch their immediate body data while listening to special background music. It includes natural sounds like bird calls and moving water, creating a personal treatment experience that uses both sight and hearing.
At first, the users completed a health question form. Then, the AI system combined the personal information with real-time data to build a fully personalized treatment experience. This smart system continuously changes the treatment plans based on the users’ developing body reactions, making sure of the best treatment results.
After finishing each session, users get a close study of their treatment process together with a personal music plan for continued care. Scientists have found that the system is beneficial in several ways: it enhances attention, promotes healing and relaxation, and stabilizes heart rate. This technology creation represents what developers call “the perfect mixing of technology and art”, building on wide research done since 2017.
The science base includes complex changing of personal brain wave patterns into healing sound through detailed counting methods. AI plays a necessary part in quickly processing special body patterns and creating matching healing sound environments. The system smartly considers both general hearing reactions and personal differences, including complex thinking processes. Scientists plan to use super computing, reaching never-before-seen exactness in music treatment methods.
28. What is the main purpose of the AI music therapy pod?
A. To develop various musical instruments. B. To connect users with scientists.
C. To make personal treatment experiences. D. To replace traditional treatment.

The Whispers of Rock: A Geologist’s Personal and Cultural Thoughts
Reviewed by Josh Trapani
In the book The Whispers of Rock, geologist Anjana Khatwa writes about the strong ties between native cultures and the Earth’s rocks and landscapes. She believes that today’s society needs to find this connection again. The book includes different native stories linked to important places, from Japan’s mountains to New Zealand’s volcano-shaped lands and the Black Hills in North America.
Although the book covers many cultures, its argument is not really new. Sometimes Khatwa’s writing sounds like she is teaching a moral lesson. It creates oversimplified comparison. Native peoples live harmoniously with nature while others only make use of nature. She worries that scientists may not accept views from non-Western cultures, but there is no need to worry.
The best parts of the book are Khatwa’s personal stories. She bravely shares both happy and sad moments from her life. Studying rocks helped her see things clearly and find comfort. Her memory of visiting Kenya is especially touching. At that place, she first became interested in geology as a young girl.
Khatwa sees human life stories in the changes of rocks. Some rocks go through great heat and pressure to become new and stronger, while other rocks are torn from their original places and left in foreign lands. However, reading this book made me think about my own different interest in geology. I am interested in history rather than humans problems. I think the Earth’s history is very long, but human problems are very small. Khatwa’s method feels like teaching at times. But her central idea is very important. It is this: if we connect with the Earth and stay open to various ideas, we can better protect our world and ourselves.
32. How does Josh introduce the book’s content in paragraph one?
A. By listing Khatw’s academic achievements. B. By quoting positive reviews from readers.
C. By comparing it with other geology books. D. By stating its theme and giving examples.
33. What is a shortcoming of the book according to the passage?
A. Ignoring Western scientific views. B. Covering cultures of few places.
C. Lacking creativity in argument. D. Failing to include personal stories.
34. How does the Josh’s view of geology differ from Khatwa’s?
A. He cares more about Earth’s history. B. He thinks rocks ignore human life.
C. He wants geology to save the planet. D. He feels geology is protecting nature.
35. What’s Josh’s attitude toward the book?
A. Objective. B. Critical. C. Unclear. D. Disappointed.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之成为一篇完整的短文。
Sumi was a single mother, and her daughter Anna has always been called “Number 23.” Every time the school released exam results, Anna would end up in 23rd place among the 50 pupils. Always 23, regardless of topic or term. The nickname always filled Sumi with concern.
Sumi ran a service company that planned small events—outdoor trips for staff and their families, or weekend parties. The discussion nearly always turned to their children, since most of her clients were parents. You know how it went - one parent discussed their child’s piano honors, another talked proudly about Math Olympiads or leadership responsibilities. Sumi would simply sit there, softly nodding, feeling uncomfortable. While others were honoring these “great youngsters,” all she could think about was Anna and her Number 23.
At a family get-together, as lunch concluded, someone playfully asked the youngsters what they wanted to be when they grew up. Bold, ambitious answers filled the room: “I want to be a pianist!” “I want to be a famous actor!” “I want to be a politician!” “I’ll start a business and make tons of money!” Adults applauded each declaration, celebrating these impressive dreams.
Anna, however, didn’t answer. She was quietly helping—bringing cups of soup, handing out cookies — content in her own little world. The relative then asked, “Anna, what do you want to be?” Anna paused, then smiled. “Uncle, I want to be a kindergarten teacher. I love tiny kids, dancing, singing, and playing.” The lively room fell silent.
Sumi’s heart sank with embarrassment, fearing the quiet meant adults found Anna’s dream small or unimpressive. Yet, Anna remained calm, her gentle smile unwavering (坚定的), as if she knew a profound truth about her path’s value and joy, a truth the adults, caught in worldly expectations, hadn’t grasped.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题纸相应位置作答。
An elderly aunt broke into warm applause.
Watching Anna’s pure smile, Sumi saw “Number 23” not as a shortcoming.
