B Ten years ago, when asked about popular activities for fun, many people would say going to KTV or amusement parks. However, young people now spend their free time at health clubs, or getting tuina (推拿), or even foot massage to experience traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) practices, such as acupuncture (针灸) . A survey in 2023 by China Youth Daily showed that 93. 3% of 1, 000 young people have tried TCM. A TCM doctor named Ma Huifang said that many young people are coming to her for health problems like neck and back pain, and dry eyes, which used to be seniors’ problems. These issues are becoming common in young people because of bad lifestyles and too much stress. When choosing between Western medicine and TCM, young people like TCM better because it works well for their health problems. Some people say TCM is not scientific enough, but Ma thinks TCM is more accurate because it treats people based on their own needs. TCM is becoming a big part of young people’s lives. They are learning TCM skills to help themselves and others. Jin Ying, a 25- year- old student at Minzu University of China, is an enthusiast of TCM. She learned acupuncture and tuina at Beijing University of Chinese Medicine. She even helped her roommate with insomnia (失眠) using ear seeds from a therapy called auricular acupoint therapy. Jin also follows the Five Elements theory in her daily life. In winter, she saves energy by not sweating too much. For her, learning TCM is about living a new way of life and understanding Chinese culture. “TCM helps young people learn about our national heritage and see it as a treasure of our culture, ” Jin says. 24. How has young people changed their free time activity in the past few years? A. They have stopped going to health clubs. B. They only enjoy western medicine for the treatment. C. They now prefer going to KTV and amusement parks. D. They now spend more time joining healthy activities. 25. Why do young people prefer TCM therapies according to Ma Huifang? A. They are useful for treatments. B. They change their bad lifestyles. C. They deal with too much stress. D. They are cheaper than other methods. 26. What does the underlined word “accurate” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Useful. B. Advanced. C. Personalized. D. Special. 27. Why does the writer mention Jin Ying? A. To show Jin Ying’s skills. B. To prove the acceptance of TCM. C. To praise Jin Ying’s kindness. D. To explain the progress of TCM. C “Using AI at work is great, but if we don’t slow down and think, it might make things bad for workers, ” some senior workforce experience leaders talked about AI. They think AI can help people work better and be more creative. But they also worry that if we don’t plan well, it might make work less human. There are many ways to see how good work is done, and leaders in our study focused on the importance of creativity and hard work in creating good work. Nearly 70% of leaders we spoke to believe that AI can help workers be more creative. It gives people new ideas that make their work better. However, 42% worry that if workers depend too much on AI, they might not work as carefully as they should. Being careful means being correct, doing things completely, and having different ways of thinking to make the work really good. Perhaps the biggest worry about AI is its impact on human connection. Over a third of conversations think AI can free up time for us to have better talks and spend more time together. But not everyone is happy about this, with 41% of leaders believing AI will weaken the quality of human connections. These bosses are concerned that we might depend too much on machines, especially for important moments. Until now, what made these moments special was the personal care and understanding that come from people. They think moments without technology have a warmth and feeling that machines might not be able to give. AI is exciting, but we need to be careful and think about how it affects workers. We should focus on making AI work with people, not against them. 28. What can we learn about using AI from the first paragraph? A. It needs no planning in advance. B. It can not improve creativity at work. C. It is the only method to increase work speed. D. It might have bad influences if not carefully used. 29. What do 42% of the leaders concern about workers relying too much on AI? A. Workers will work with less care. B. Workers will become less creative. C. Workers will not complete their studies. D. Workers themselves will stop thinking. 30. How did the use of AI probably influence human connections? A. It will bring personal care and understanding. B. It will take away the warmth of human care. C. It will depend too much on human connections. D. It will strengthen the quality of human connections. 31. Who is the passage probably written for? A. Workers. B. Researchers. C. Leaders. D. Teenagers. D With digital learning gaining popularity, some students choose to learn from home using computers and the internet. They used websites and digital books instead of paper ones. But are they learning as well as they think? Studies show that reading on paper is easier to understand than reading on a screen. Anne Mangen, a literacy professor at the University of Stavanger in Norway, says reading on paper is calm and attracts our attention, unlike the reading on a screen. Experts say that while screens are good for quick news, complex texts are better on paper. They help us remember details better. A study by Lauren Singer Trakhman found that students understood the main ideas whether they read on paper or a screen, but they missed small details on screens. Reading on screens might make us read faster but not as deeply. Our brains might be getting used to quick information from digital media and not thinking carefully about what we read. Some research shows that our brains react differently to paper and screens. Reading on paper can make us feel more and understand the space around us better. So what can we do? We shouldn’t stop using screens, but we should think about what we read on them. Singer Trakhman says she uses her Kindle for fun but turns to paper for serious reading. To remember what we read on screens, we can try writing down the main points by hand. It might help us remember better than typing. And sometimes, turning off our devices and reading a real book can be very nice. 32. What does Anne Mangen think of reading on paper? A. It is better for reading quick news. B. It brings peaceful reading experience. C. It provides a new adventure for readers. D. It helps to improve communication abilities. 33. Why might students miss details when reading on screens? A. Screens make the text harder to read. B. The text on screens is usually less detailed. C. Students tend to read quickly and not think deeply. D. Screens make it difficult to understand the main ideas. 34. What can be inferred from Lauren Singer Trakhman’s reading habits? A. She hardly uses screens in daily reading. B. She likes using Kindle for all types of reading. C. She thinks Kindles are suitable for serious reading. D. She prefers to use paper for challenging literature. 35. Which is the best title for this passage? A. The Advantages Digital Learning Brings B. Reading on Paper vs. Reading on Screens C. How Reading on Paper Shapes Students D. The Importance of Online Learning at Home 第二节（共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Moving from middle to high school is a big step for all kids.
