Today, the kale she grows tastes different. "It's sweet, crisp, juicy and has a pleasant smell," Wang said in early March in her greenhouse, picking a few leaves to eat right away. "I eat a few leaves every day," she added. At 56, Wang is full of energy. She starts her day at 5 am and works tirelessly in her fields until evening, watering, weeding (除草), and taking care of the kale. "It's all thanks to eating kale," she laughed.
Why does kale become so tasty? Wang explains the change is all because of bio-organic fertilizers(有机肥料),which help the kale grow better and taste much sweeter. What makes Wang feel proud is that the kale is safe enough for babies to eat.

Its creator, Zou Qi, is a fourth-generation heir to the time-honored Yuanyuan Sword Workshop. Also, she's one of the few women who make swords.
Born into a family deeply rooted in the art of sword-making, she didn't want to take up this job at first. As time went by, seeing her father aging, she felt a sense of responsibility to carry on her family's tradition. With e-commerce(电商) growing, in 2021, she quit her job and returned to her hometown to learn the sword-making. However, her dad, Zou Jianming, a master swordsmith(铸剑师) with over 40 years of experience, showed great worries about her.
Making a Longquan sword is really difficult, which includes over 2o0 steps. To women, it is a great challenge. ▲ But Zou Qi kept it up. She got burned and her hands got calluses. Still, she was proud when she made her first sword.
Determined to promote the traditional sword-making culture, Zou Qi wants swords to be not only displayed in museums but also integrated (融人) into people's lives as special decorations. She tried putting phoenix(凤凰) patterns on a sword and named it "Phoenix Rebirth". She thinks the phoenix means being strong and starting over. In an interview, she said, "People usually think only men can make swords. But women can add new ideas and pay more attention to details."

Over time, prices are likely to fall enough for the home market, changing how we live and eat. Convenience can come at a great cost, so it's important to look ahead at the possible changes Al kitchens will bring.
②Undoubtedly, AI kitchens will bring great benefits. For example, it can take over boring tasks like peeling potatoes, letting people focus on creating new dishes. With AI kitchens, busy families will gain free time to spend together or finish important work. What's more, it can help people eat more healthily, like cutting down on sugar.
③However, cooking is more than just making food. It helps us feel grateful, creative, and connected. For example, when parents and kids cook together, they share stories and learn from each other. Without this, mealtimes might be less meaningful. Children will also miss out on learning science and math through cooking—like measuring the ingredients (食材) or watching bread rise.
④While AI can help with creativity, there are risks to culture. If robots only use popular ingredients, unique (独特的) local dishes may disappear. Also, can you imagine AI kitchens quietly erase the joy of sharing home-cooked meals with neighbors?
⑤What worries us most is that these smart machines sometimes are not so smart. We're not sure if they can find out the food that has gone bad to avoid accidents. What if a robot serves rotten fruit because it can't smell? Who would be responsible if a robot makes someone sick or gets hacked? These questions are as unclear as with self-driving cars.
⑥The kitchen is a special place in homes, neighborhoods and cultures. We should use robots wisely-—having them do boring and challenging jobs rather than allowing them to take the lead. This way, we can enjoy progress without losing the traditional cultures.
(1)、Why does the author mention "Convenience can come at a great cost" in Paragraph D?A、To lead in the topic. B、To teach readers a lesson. C、To offer a suggestion. D、To attract readers' attention.(2)、What are the advantages of AI kitchens according to the passage?①They can do boring tasks such as peeling potatoes.
②They allow busy families to have free time.
③They help people eat healthier food.
④They can help people cook faster.
A、①②③ B、①③④ C、②③④ D、①②④(3)、How did the writer show that cooking is not just about making food?A、By listing numbers. B、By sharing personal experiences. C、By providing examples. D、By making comparisons.(4)、What is the structure of the passage?A、B、
C、
D、
