Jamil Jan Kochai, the author of 99 Nights in Logar, searched for more than a decade for Susan Lung — the second-grade teacher who had changed his life over 20 years earlier. On Saturday night, the two were finally reunited at one of his book-reading events.
The writer was born in a refugee camp for Afghans in Peshawar, Pakistan, and his family moved to California when he was just a year old. At home, they spoke mostly Pashto and some Farsi, so by the time he reached first grade, he was at a total loss because he could hardly speak English. Then came Mrs. Lung, who quickly realized that Kochai was deeply struggling at Alyce Norman Elementary School.
The two got to work, meeting for one-on-one lessons nearly every day after school. At the end of the school year, Kochai won reading-comprehension competitions.
Lung and Kochai lost touch when Kochai’s father got a job in another city and the boy moved on, with a new love of reading and writing. When he grew older, Kochai’s parents encouraged him to find his former teacher to thank her. But despite his efforts, he failed to track her down.
“I didn’t know her first name. She was always just Mrs. Lung to me, so when I called places to ask about her, they couldn’t find any records of her,” Kochai said.
Then, while promoting his first novel, he wrote an essay for Literary Hub magazine touching on the transformative impact that Lung had on his life. Lung’s doctor happened to read it, and told the now-retired educator about that.
Lung’s husband saw a Facebook post about Kochai’s reading event on Saturday in Davis, California and suggested he drive his wife there.
“I had no idea they were going to be there,” Kochai said. “It was just like a sweet dream. Mrs. Lung was sitting in the front row. She was just the same Mrs. Lung. Just as sweet, kind and warm as ever.”
Kochai and Lung hugged, and Kochai finally got the chance to express to her how much he still thought of her and how much she meant to him.
24．How did Mrs. Lung help Kochai?
A．By dropping by his house regularly.B．By asking him to read more in class.
C．By spending extra time tutoring him.D．By saving him out of a refugee camp.
25．Why did Kochai have difficulty finding Mrs. Lung?
A．There were few records about her. B．His parents provided little support.
C．He was too young to remember her.D．He had limited information about her. 26．How did Kochai feel when seeing Mrs. Lung at his reading event?
A．Surprised and delighted.B．Discouraged and frustrated.
C．Uneasy and curious.D．Alarmed and awe-inspiring. 27．What is the best title for the text?
A．A Distinguished Guest Showed Up at a Reading Event
B．A Writer Was Finally Reunited With His Former Teacher
C．A Famous Teacher Saved a Poor Student’s Whole Life
D．A Book Changed a Celebrity and a Retired Teacher

Cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin and Ethereum, have revolutionized the way we think about money and transactions. These digital assets are based on blockchain technology, a decentralized and transparent system that enables secure peer-to-peer transactions without the need for intermediaries like banks.
The potential applications of cryptocurrencies extend beyond simple transactions. Smart contracts, for instance, are self-executing contracts with terms directly written into code. They automatically execute and enforce the terms of an agreement when specific conditions are met. This technology has implications across various industries, from supply chain management to real estate.
However, the rise of cryptocurrencies has also given rise to challenges. One major concern is their volatility. The value of cryptocurrencies can fluctuate dramatically within short periods, making them risky investment options. Additionally, the pseudonymous nature of transactions has led to debates about the
potential for illicit activities, such as money laundering and tax evasion.
Governments and regulatory bodies worldwide are grappling with how to classify, regulate, and tax cryptocurrencies. The decentralized nature of these digital assets challenges traditional regulatory frameworks. Some countries have embraced cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology, while others have implemented strict regulations or outright bans.
The future of cryptocurrencies is still uncertain. Proponents believe they could reshape the financial system, enabling greater financial inclusion and efficiency. Critics worry about their potential negative impacts and the need for more comprehensive regulations to protect consumers and prevent misuse.
28．How do cryptocurrencies enable secure transactions without intermediaries?
A．They rely on banks to facilitate transactions.
B．They are based on blockchain technology.
C．They require government oversight for security.
D．They use smart contracts for validation.
29．What is a smart contract?
A．A contract executed by banks for digital transactions.
B．A contract written in human-readable language.
C．A contract enforced by intermediaries.
D．A self-executing contract with terms in code
30．What is a major concern regarding the value of cryptocurrencies?
A．Their stable and predictable value.
B．Their potential to replace traditional currency.
C．Their susceptibility to fluctuations.
D．Their resistance to technological advancements.
31．How have governments responded to the rise of cryptocurrencies?
A．Most countries have embraced cryptocurrencies without regulations.
B．Governments have adopted uniform regulations for cryptocurrencies.
C．Governments have struggled to regulate and classify cryptocurrencies.
D．All countries have implemented strict bans on cryptocurrencies.

In recent years, advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) have brought both excitement and concerns to various fields. One area where AI is making a profound impact is the medical field, particularly in the domain of diagnostics.
Al-powered diagnostic systems leverage deep learning algorithms to analyze medical images, such as X-rays, MRIs, and CT scans. These algorithms can detect subtle patterns and anomalies that might be missed by human radiologists, potentially leading to earlier and more accurate diagnoses.
However, the integration of AI in medical diagnostics raises complex ethical questions. For instance, who should be held responsible if an AI system misdiagnoses a patient’s condition? Should AI algorithms be treated as medical professionals, with legal and liability implications? These questions become even more intricate when considering that AI systems learn from vast datasets of medical information, which might contain biases or inaccuracies.
Furthermore, the adoption of AI diagnostics could impact the role of healthcare professionals. Some argue that AI could enhance doctors’ capabilities by providing them with additional insights, while others fear that it might replace human expertise, leading to job losses and a potential decrease in the quality of patient care. Despite these challenges, proponents of AI diagnostics emphasize its potential to improve healthcare accessibility, especially in underserved regions where there is a shortage of skilled medical professionals. Al-powered diagnostics could provide preliminary assessments and recommendations, helping to bridge the gap between patients and healthcare providers.
32．What is the primary advantage of AI-powered diagnostic systems in the medical field?
A．They provide additional insights to doctors.
B．They replace the need for human radiologists.
C．They analyze medical images using deep learning algorithms.
D．They focus on detecting visible patterns in medical images.
33．What is a potential ethical concern regarding AI in medical diagnostics?
A．The potential for AI algorithms to replace human doctors.
B．The reliability of AI algorithms in analyzing medical images.
C．The legal responsibility for misdiagnoses made by AI systems.
D．The biased data used for training AI algorithms.
34．How might the integration of AI diagnostics impact healthcare professionals?
A．AI could enhance doctors’ expertise and skills.
B．AI could lead to job losses in the medical field.
C．AI could decrease the quality of patient care.
D．AI could replace human doctors completely.
35．What potential benefit of AI diagnostics is highlighted in the text?
A．AI diagnostics could decrease the quality of patient care.
B.AI diagnostics could primarily serve regions with sufficient medical
professionals.
C．AI diagnostics could bridge the gap in healthcare accessibility.
D．AI diagnostics could replace the need for skilled radiologists.

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。

Jeff and I had many conversations during the year, but I will always remember the time he told me about his family. His father, a successful physician, was cold and
strict in Jeffs words. His father had even paved the way for Jeff to attend the same college from which he had graduated.
Jeff was twenty-seven and a successful business planner at a company — without a degree. His passion was skiing. When he graduated from high school, he decided to decline his father’s offer and, instead, to work with a ski patrol (滑雪巡逻队). With pain in his eyes, Jeff told me he still remembered the day when he told his father he was going to give up college and take a job at a ski resort.
Hearing Jeffs decision, his father looked off into the distance. Then came the words that still echoed in Jeff’s mind: “You lazy kid. No son of mine is going to work with a ski patrol and does not attend college. I should have known you’d never amount to anything!” The two had not spoken since that conversation.
Later, he was back in the area near where he grew up and he certainly did not want his father to know he was attending college. He was doing this for himself, not for his father. He said it over and over again. Jeff’s sister had always remained supportive of Jeffs decisions. She stayed in contact with their father, but Jeff had made her promise that she would not share any information about his life with him.
The day when the graduation ceremony came, I walked around talking to people before it started. I noticed a man with a confused expression.
“Excuse me,” he said as he politely approached me. “What is happening here today?”
“It’s graduation day,” I replied, smiling. “Well, that’s odd,” he said, “my daughter asked me to meet her at this address.” His eyes sparkled and he smiled. “Maybe she completed her associate’s degree and wanted to surprise me!”
I helped him find a seat.
