It was a funeral for a pet dog. Lyu came up with the idea of becoming a pet mortician (殡葬师) four years ago when he was preparing to start a business. “At that time, there was only one brick-and-mortar (实体的) business that provided funeral services for pets in Shenzhen. but hundreds of pets die every day in this city.” he said. According to Lyu, many pet owners used to bury the remains of their beloved animals near their homes, which had a harmful impact on the environment and created the risk of spreading disease. He saw a gap in the market for someone able to properly handle the death of pets. “A pet funeral service provides treatment of the bodies that is harm-free, and it is the greatest comfort to pet owners,” Lyu said. He takes good care of the remains of the pets and tidies up their appearance before the funeral. In addition, he prepares funeral addresses and selects suitable tombs for the pets. He also films funerals for owners who cannot attend the ceremonies, and provides paper and pens for those who want to write down their blessings and hang the notes on the wishing tree. Over the past four years, Lyu has bid farewell to more than 2,000 dogs, cats and other kinds of anımals. He also does volunteer work in his spare time to promote responsible dog raising. “The pet funeral service industry is still in its babyhood, and I hope there will be a set of strict standards for people who take on this job and a better environment for the industry,” Lyu said. 4. Why did Lyu start the business on pet funeral service? A. It met the market requirement. B. It would be a unique and challenging business. C. He could earn a lot of money from the business. D. He could help bury the dead pets near their homes. 5. What does Lyu often do as a pet mortician? A. He gives best wishes to the pets’ owners. B. He prepares speeches to mourn the pets. C. He makes films of the pets for their birth. D. He nurses and cares for the pets carefully. 6. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Lyu volunteers to raise pets on his own. B. The pet funeral service has got a big success C. There remains a potential in the pet funeral industry. D. More strict standards should be set for pets’ owners. 7. In which column will you probably find the passage? A. Lifestyle & Leisure. B. Economy & Finance. C. Occupation & Employment. D. Sports & Entertainment. 【答案】4. A 5. B 6. C 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述吕骏创立宠物殡葬服务，填补市场空白，倡导行业规范发展的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“At that time, there was only one brick-and-mortar (实体的) business that provided funeral services for pets in Shenzhen, but hundreds of pets die every day in this city(当时，深圳只有一家提供宠物葬礼服务的实体店。但在这个城市，每天都有数百只宠物死亡)”可知，吕骏发现深圳每天有大量宠物死亡，但正规宠物殡葬服务稀缺，因此他看到了市场需求，做宠物葬礼服务。故选A。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“In addition, he prepares funeral addresses and selects suitable tombs for the pets.(此外，他还要准备葬礼地址，为宠物选择合适的坟墓。)”可知，作为宠物殡葬师，吕骏的工作包括准备悼念宠物的悼词，及为宠物墓地选址。故选B。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The pet funeral service industry is still in its babyhood, and I hope there will be a set of strict standards for people who take on this job and a better environment for the industry(宠物殡葬服务行业还处于起步阶段，我希望对从事这项工作的人有一套严格的标准，给这个行业一个更好的环境)”可知，宠物殡葬服务行业仍处于初期，说明有发展潜力。故选C。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Lyu came up with the idea of becoming a pet mortician (殡葬师) four years ago when he was preparing to start a business. (四年前，当吕准备创业时，他萌生了成为一名宠物殡仪师的想法)”及最后一段“The pet funeral service industry is still in its babyhood, and I hope there will be a set of strict standards for people who take on this job and a better environment for the industry (宠物殡葬服务行业还处于起步阶段，我希望对从事这项工作的人有一套严格的标准，给这个行业一个更好的环境)”全文围绕吕骏的职业，即宠物殡葬师及行业发展展开，由此推断，文章最可能出现在“职业与就业”板块。故选C。 C As part of a health initiative, Berkeley is getting ready to become the first city in the US to require large grocery stores to stop allowing the sales of junk food and candy in checkout aisles(过道). The new rule is expected to go into effect in March 2021. The “Healthy Checkout Ordinance(法规)” was approved by Berkeley’s City Council. It requires stores over 2,500 square-feet in size to sell at least 25 square-feet of healthy items within a three-foot radius(半径) of checkout registers. So now instead of candy and soda and other high calorie items, shoppers can expect to see fresh fruit and whole grain alternatives at checkout counters. “Placement of unhealthy snacks near a register increases the likelihood that customers will purchase these foods and drinks when willpower is weak at the end of a long shopping trip,” City Council member Kate Harrison said. The new rule will affect at least 25 retailers(零售商)in Berkeley. These include Whole Foods, CVS, Walgreens and Safeway. “It's not a ban: it's a nudge(推动),” Harrison said. “Stores can still sell candy and soda, just not at your child's eye level in the checkout.” The council said the shift to selling more healthy products at checkouts will still be profitable for stores because data shows customers are looking for more low sugar and low sodium products anyway. They also said retailers in test cases around the country and in California have seen dramatic increases in sales of healthy foods since they changed their checkouts to include more fresh options in displays. The ordinance will make grocery stores a “more neutral and health-friendly space for consumers,” said Ashley Hickson, senior policy associate at the Center for Science in the Public Interest(CSPI). Junk food makers spend a lot to make sure their products are front and center in stores, Hickson said, but some consumers don't like the practice. In a CSPI survey, 76% of shoppers who bought unhealthy food or drink at checkout regretted the purchase, she added. 8. What can we infer from Harrison's words in Paragraph 3? A. Customers tend to ignore the price when tired. B. Items placed near checkouts are most profitable. C. Customers will easily spend a fortune when tired. D. Items placed near checkouts are inviting to customers. 9. Why will the rule bring stores no loss in profit according to the council? A. Alternatives will make up for sales. B. Retailers will get financial support. C. Healthy food will attract more customers. D. Retail prices of other goods will be raised. 10. What do the underlined words “practice” in the last paragraph refer to? A. Spending a lot to promote sales. B. Advertising some unhealthy drinks. C. Placing junk food at checkout aisles. D. Replacing junk food with healthy ones. 11. What's the best title of the text? A. The Negative Influences of Junk Food B. How to Maximize the Profits of Stores C. Berkeley Will Ban Most Junk Food at Checkouts D. Berkeley Pays More Attention to People's Health 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. C 11. C 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇新闻报道。无论超市大小，收银台总摆有琳琅满目的口香糖等小零食。然而这一司空见惯的现象在美国伯克利市予以辙令。这场官方撤除旨在减少垃圾食品购入量，提升该市居民的健康水平。 8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Placement of unhealthy snacks near a register increases the likelihood that customers will purchase these foods and drinks.”(把不健康的零食放在收银台附近会增加顾客购买这些食品和饮料的可能性)可知，放置在收银台附近的商品对顾客具有吸引力。故选D。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“The council said the shift to selling more healthy products at checkouts will still be profitable for stores because data shows customers are looking for more low sugar and low sodium products anyway.” (该委员会表示，在收银台销售更多健康产品的转变对商店来说仍是有利可图的，因为数据显示，消费者正在寻找更多的低糖和低钠产品。)和“They also said retailers in test cases around the country and in California have seen dramatic increases in sales of healthy foods since they changed their checkouts to include more fresh options in displays”(他们还表示，全国各地和加州的零售商在测试案例中发现，自从他们改变收银台，在陈列中加入更多新鲜食品后，健康食品的销量大幅增长).可知，根据该委员会的说法，这一规定不会给商店带来利润损失，因为如此一来，健康食品的销量会大幅增长，这些替代品将弥补销售额。故选A。 【10题详解】 词义猜测题。根据最后一段划线词所在句的上文“Junk food makers spend a lot to make sure their products are front and center in stores,…”( 垃圾食品制造商花了很多钱来确保他们的产品在商店的前排和中心位置。)和下文“In a CSPI survey, 76% of shoppers who bought unhealthy food or drink at checkout regretted the purchase, she added.”( 她补充说，CSPI的一项调查显示，76%在收银台购买不健康食品或饮料的购物者后悔购买了它们。)可知，有些消费者不喜欢 “这种做法”，即“把垃圾食品放在结账通道”，选项C符合语境，故选C。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。本文为新闻报道，根据第一段“As part of a health initiative, Berkeley is getting ready to become the first city in the US to require large grocery stores to stop allowing the sales of junk food and candy in checkout aisles”(过道).(作为一项健康倡议的一部分，伯克利正准备成为美国第一个要求大型杂货店停止允许在收银台销售垃圾食品和糖果的城市。)可知本文主要讲述伯克利将成为美国第一个禁止垃圾食品和糖果进入杂货店收银台的城市，故选C。 D The emergence of de-inking printers represents an advancement of printing technology and paper recycling, addressing one of the most pressing environmental challenges of our time. For decades, conventional printing processes have been linked to substantial paper waste, with millions of tons of paper being consumed annually — often used just once before being thrown away The innovative de-inking printer operates through a combination of advanced technologies. Using an advanced sensor system, it first identifies the presence of ink on the surface of the paper. Subsequently, a high-intensity laser is precisely directed to target and vaporize (汽化) ink effectively, removing them without causing any damage to the paper fibers. One of the most remarkable advantages of this technology lies in its potential to reduce overall paper consumption. By enabling the reuse of printed materials through effective ink removal it significantly reduces the demand for newly produced paper. This shift not only preserves natural resources but also plays a crucial role in reducing carbon emissions associated with the paper production. From an economic perspective, the adoption of de-inking printers presents long-term financial advantages. Although the initial investment in purchasing and installing the printer may be relatively high, the long-term savings from reduced paper and ink purchases can be substantial. However, the widespread adoption of de-inking printers is not without its challenges. The technology requires further improvements to enhance de-inking efficiency and ensure that the quality of recycled paper meets industry standards. Additionally, there exists a significant barrier in terms of user acceptance: many individuals and organizations remain accustomed to using new paper and may be reluctant to adopt recycled alternatives even when they are of comparable quality. In conclusion, the de-inking printer stands as a ray of hope for achieving a more sustainable future within the printing industry. With continued technological advancements and growing environmental awareness, this technology has the potential to transform the industry, contributing to a more eco-friendly and resource-efficient world. 12. What is the de-inking printer aimed at? A. Recycling the used ink. B. Producing recyclable paper. C. Improving the printing speed. D. Reducing the waste or resources. 13. How does the de-inking printer remove ink from paper? A. By combining sensors and lasers. B. By adding chemicals into the ink. C. By converting paper into new materials. D. By using laser to burn letters on the paper. 14. What blocks the broad application of de-inking printer? A. It can only be used with special ink. B. Users find it complex to understand. C. It is too large to be used in most offices. D. People are unwilling to use recycled paper. 15. What is the author’s attitude towards de-inking printer? A. Neutral. B. Skeptical. C. Optimistic. D. Negative. 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍去墨打印机在环保、经济方面的优势及面临的挑战，表明其对印刷行业可持续发展的重要意义和潜力。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“One of the most remarkable advantages of this technology lies in its potential to reduce overall paper consumption. By enabling the reuse of printed materials through effective ink removal it significantly reduces the demand for newly produced paper. This shift not only preserves natural resources but also plays a crucial role in reducing carbon emissions associated with the paper production.(这项技术最显著的优点之一在于它有可能减少纸张的总消耗量。通过有效地去除油墨，使印刷材料能够重复使用，从而大大减少了对新生产纸张的需求。这种转变不仅保护了自然资源，而且在减少与纸张生产相关的碳排放方面发挥了至关重要的作用。)”可知，去墨打印机可以减少纸张消耗，保护自然资源，也就是减少资源浪费。故选D。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Using an advanced sensor system, it first identifies the presence of ink on the surface of the paper. Subsequently, a high-intensity laser is precisely directed to target and vaporize (汽化) ink effectively, removing them without causing any damage to the paper fibers.(使用先进的传感器系统，它首先识别纸张表面是否存在油墨。随后，高强度激光被精确定向，有效地蒸发油墨，在不损坏纸纤维的情况下去除它们。)”可知，去墨打印机先通过传感器识别墨水，再用激光汽化墨水，所以是传感器和激光结合去除纸上的墨水的。故选A。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“Additionally, there exists a significant barrier in terms of user acceptance: many individuals and organizations remain accustomed to using new paper and may be reluctant to adopt recycled alternatives even when they are of comparable quality.(此外，在用户接受度方面存在一个重大障碍：许多个人和组织仍然习惯于使用新纸，可能不愿意使用可回收的替代品，即使它们具有相当的质量。)”可知，人们习惯用新纸，不愿意用再生纸，这是阻碍其广泛应用的一个因素。故选D。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“In conclusion, the de-inking printer stands as a ray of hope for achieving a more sustainable future within the printing industry. With continued technological advancements and growing environmental awareness, this technology has the potential to transform the industry, contributing to a more eco-friendly and resource-efficient world.(总之，去墨打印机是实现印刷业更可持续未来的希望之光。随着技术的不断进步和环保意识的增强，这项技术有可能改变整个行业，为一个更环保、更节约资源的世界做出贡献。)”可知，作者认为它是实现可持续未来的希望，有改变行业的潜力，所以推断态度是乐观的。故选C。 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。 Artificial Intelligence (AI) is becoming increasingly popular in children’s lives, from voice-activated assistants like Alexa to AI-powered homework help tools. ___16___ To help children balance the benefits of AI without nurturing dependency, here are some practical strategies: Frame AI as a supportive partner, not a solution. ___17___ If they’re working on an assignment, ask them to first attempt it independently. Once they’ve done their best, they can use AI to check their work or get additional insights. This way, they see AI as an aid in refining their ideas rather than as a replacement for their effort. ___18___ Mindful technology use involves curiosity about where information comes from. Encourage your child to ask questions like, “How did this answer come to me?” or “Is this information proven?” This not only builds critical thinking but also teaches them to assess AI-generated content with a healthy level of skepticism. Encourage creativity over convenience. When kids are working on creative projects, such as writing or artwork, suggest they use AI as a brainstorming tool. ___19___ However, they need to shape those ideas in their unique style. This approach helps them see AI as a springboard for their creativity, not a substitute for their own ideas. Set boundaries on AI use. Just as you set limits on screen time, establish boundaries for AI use. For example, decide that AI can be used for initial research. ___20___ These guidelines highlight that while AI is a valuable tool, it should not replace the learning process or independent thinking. By encouraging your children to view AI as a helpful resource rather than a crutch (依靠), you’ll promote their independence, creativity and critical thinking. A. Model responsible AI use. B. Teach them to question the source. C. However, do not use it to complete assignments. D. Encourage kids to view AI as a helper, not a shortcut. E. AI can be a great educational tool if used responsibly. F. For example, if they’re writing a story, they can ask AI for topic ideas. G. While these technologies can be incredibly useful, over-reliance can lead to problems. 【答案】16. G 17. D 18. B 19. F 20.

They used to pretend that they were travelers exploring a new country with lush vegetation (茂盛的草木) and bright yellow daffodils (水仙花) dotting the field, and would drop leaves on the road that they might find their way back again. Everything seemed amazing and appealing. When the ice was thick and firm, they went across the pond. But their mother did not like to have them do this unless someone was with them. “Don’t go across the pond today children,” she said, as she kissed them and bade them goodbye one morning. “It is beginning to melt. It can be dangerous.” “All right, mother,” said David, though not very good-naturedly, for he was very fond of running and sliding on the ice. When they came to the pond, the ice looked hard and safe. “There,” said he to his sister, “I knew it hadn’t melted any. Mother is always afraid we shall be drowned. Come along, and we will have a good time sliding. The school bell will not ring for an hour at least.” “But you promised mother,” said Susan. “No, I didn’t. I only said ‘All right,’ and it is all right,” said David, holding his head high. “Oh, well, I didn’t say anything; so I can do as I like,” said Susan. So, they stepped on the ice without any delay, and started to go across the pond merrily. They had not gone far before the ice gave way, and they fell into the chilly water all at once. “Help! Help!” they both cried for help in panic. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: A man who was at work near the shore heard the screams of the children. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: David and Susan went home almost frozen. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 A man who was at work near the shore heard the screams of the children. Sensing something urgent, he turned to the direction where the screams came，only to find the two kids struggling in the water. Without any hesitation, the man dashed to the scene, dived into the freezing pond, swam towards the two kids like an arrow, and managed to reach them in the nick of time. Hardly had the man seized David and Susan when he began to alleviate their panic and dragged them all the way to the shore. Thanks to his timely help, the two children narrowly escaped drowning. Totally worn-out and speechless with shock, they lay on the shore, shivering with coldness for quite a while. Consciousness regained, David and Susan expressed their gratitude to the man for saving their lives and headed back home. David and Susan went home almost frozen. At the sight of the two kids’ awful appearance, their mother knew the story at once. Much to their astonishment, she showed no sign of anger but a concerned look, asking them to change the wet clothes quickly and then wrapping them into her arms tightly to keep them warm. Pale faces turning red gradually, the two kids got back in form. David realizing his action almost killed himself and his sister, regretful tears rolled down his cheeks. “Had it not been for my recklessness, we wouldn’t have suffered the accident. I’m sorry to have put you in danger, Susan.” “No, it is also my fault. I’m terribly sorry, mum. We didn’t mean to worry you." Their mother patted them on their shoulder and forgave them for their courage to admit all the faults. Snowflakes still dancing outside, a ripple of warmth surged through them, though, giving them a blossoming spring! 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了大卫和苏珊不听妈妈的话，在冰融化的时候过河，结果掉进了冰冷的水中。幸亏一个在岸边工作的人听到了孩子们的尖叫声，及时救起了他们，他们也认识到了自己的错误，向妈妈道了歉。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“一个在岸边工作的人听到了孩子们的尖叫声”可知，第一段可描写孩子们得救的经过和表示感谢。 ②由第二段首句内容“大卫和苏珊回到家时几乎冻僵了”可知，第二段可描写大卫和苏珊向妈妈为自己的行为道歉，感到后悔。 2.续写线索：听到尖叫声——施救——得救——感谢——回家——母亲得知——道歉——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①抓住：seize/grasp ②开始：begin/start ③缓解：alleviate/relieve 情绪类 ①感激：gratitude/thankfulness ②愤怒：anger/ rage 【点睛】[高分句型1] Hardly had the man seized David and Susan when he began to alleviate their panic and dragged them all the way to the shore.

B With paper flowers and music hanging around in the air, Lyu Jun was hosting a small farewell ceremony at an industrial zone in Shenzhen, Guangdong Province. It was a funeral for a pet dog. Lyu came up with the idea of becoming a pet mortician (殡葬师) four years ago when he was preparing to start a business. “At that time, there was only one brick-and-mortar (实体的) business that provided funeral services for pets in Shenzhen. but hundreds of pets die every day in this city.” he said. According to Lyu, many pet owners used to bury the remains of their beloved animals near their homes, which had a harmful impact on the environment and created the risk of spreading disease. He saw a gap in the market for someone able to properly handle the death of pets. “A pet funeral service provides treatment of the bodies that is harm-free, and it is the greatest comfort to pet owners,” Lyu said. He takes good care of the remains of the pets and tidies up their appearance before the funeral. In addition, he prepares funeral addresses and selects suitable tombs for the pets. He also films funerals for owners who cannot attend the ceremonies, and provides paper and pens for those who want to write down their blessings and hang the notes on the wishing tree. Over the past four years, Lyu has bid farewell to more than 2,000 dogs, cats and other kinds of anımals. He also does volunteer work in his spare time to promote responsible dog raising. “The pet funeral service industry is still in its babyhood, and I hope there will be a set of strict standards for people who take on this job and a better environment for the industry,” Lyu said. 4. Why did Lyu start the business on pet funeral service? A. It met the market requirement. B. It would be a unique and challenging business. C. He could earn a lot of money from the business. D. He could help bury the dead pets near their homes. 5. What does Lyu often do as a pet mortician? A. He gives best wishes to the pets’ owners. B. He prepares speeches to mourn the pets. C. He makes films of the pets for their birth. D. He nurses and cares for the pets carefully. 6. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Lyu volunteers to raise pets on his own. B. The pet funeral service has got a big success C. There remains a potential in the pet funeral industry. D. More strict standards should be set for pets’ owners. 7. In which column will you probably find the passage? A. Lifestyle & Leisure. B. Economy & Finance. C. Occupation & Employment. D. Sports & Entertainment. C As part of a health initiative, Berkeley is getting ready to become the first city in the US to require large grocery stores to stop allowing the sales of junk food and candy in checkout aisles(过道). The new rule is expected to go into effect in March 2021. The “Healthy Checkout Ordinance(法规)” was approved by Berkeley’s City Council. It requires stores over 2,500 square-feet in size to sell at least 25 square-feet of healthy items within a three-foot radius(半径) of checkout registers. So now instead of candy and soda and other high calorie items, shoppers can expect to see fresh fruit and whole grain alternatives at checkout counters. “Placement of unhealthy snacks near a register increases the likelihood that customers will purchase these foods and drinks when willpower is weak at the end of a long shopping trip,” City Council member Kate Harrison said. The new rule will affect at least 25 retailers(零售商)in Berkeley. These include Whole Foods, CVS, Walgreens and Safeway. “It's not a ban: it's a nudge(推动),” Harrison said. “Stores can still sell candy and soda, just not at your child's eye level in the checkout.” The council said the shift to selling more healthy products at checkouts will still be profitable for stores because data shows customers are looking for more low sugar and low sodium products anyway. They also said retailers in test cases around the country and in California have seen dramatic increases in sales of healthy foods since they changed their checkouts to include more fresh options in displays. The ordinance will make grocery stores a “more neutral and health-friendly space for consumers,” said Ashley Hickson, senior policy associate at the Center for Science in the Public Interest(CSPI). Junk food makers spend a lot to make sure their products are front and center in stores, Hickson said, but some consumers don't like the practice. In a CSPI survey, 76% of shoppers who bought unhealthy food or drink at checkout regretted the purchase, she added. 8. What can we infer from Harrison's words in Paragraph 3? A. Customers tend to ignore the price when tired. B. Items placed near checkouts are most profitable. C. Customers will easily spend a fortune when tired. D. Items placed near checkouts are inviting to customers. 9. Why will the rule bring stores no loss in profit according to the council? A. Alternatives will make up for sales. B Retailers will get financial support. C. Healthy food will attract more customers. D. Retail prices of other goods will be raised. 10. What do the underlined words “practice” in the last paragraph refer to? A. Spending a lot to promote sales. B. Advertising some unhealthy drinks. C. Placing junk food at checkout aisles. D. Replacing junk food with healthy ones. 11. What's the best title of the text? A. The Negative Influences of Junk Food B. How to Maximize the Profits of Stores C. Berkeley Will Ban Most Junk Food at Checkouts D. Berkeley Pays More Attention to People's Health D The emergence of de-inking printers represents an advancement of printing technology and paper recycling, addressing one of the most pressing environmental challenges of our time. For decades, conventional printing processes have been linked to substantial paper waste, with millions of tons of paper being consumed annually — often used just once before being thrown away The innovative de-inking printer operates through a combination of advanced technologies. Using an advanced sensor system, it first identifies the presence of ink on the surface of the paper. Subsequently, a high-intensity laser is precisely directed to target and vaporize (汽化) ink effectively, removing them without causing any damage to the paper fibers. One of the most remarkable advantages of this technology lies in its potential to reduce overall paper consumption. By enabling the reuse of printed materials through effective ink removal it significantly reduces the demand for newly produced paper. This shift not only preserves natural resources but also plays a crucial role in reducing carbon emissions associated with the paper production. From an economic perspective, the adoption of de-inking printers presents long-term financial advantages. Although the initial investment in purchasing and installing the printer may be relatively high, the long-term savings from reduced paper and ink purchases can be substantial. However, the widespread adoption of de-inking printers is not without its challenges. The technology requires further improvements to enhance de-inking efficiency and ensure that the quality of recycled paper meets industry standards. Additionally, there exists a significant barrier in terms of user acceptance: many individuals and organizations remain accustomed to using new paper and may be reluctant to adopt recycled alternatives even when they are of comparable quality. In conclusion, the de-inking printer stands as a ray of hope for achieving a more sustainable future within the printing industry. With continued technological advancements and growing environmental awareness, this technology has the potential to transform the industry, contributing to a more eco-friendly and resource-efficient world. 12.

Once they’ve done their best, they can use AI to check their work or get additional insights. This way, they see AI as an aid in refining their ideas rather than as a replacement for their effort. ___18___ Mindful technology use involves curiosity about where information comes from. Encourage your child to ask questions like, “How did this answer come to me?” or “Is this information proven?” This not only builds critical thinking but also teaches them to assess AI-generated content with a healthy level of skepticism. Encourage creativity over convenience. When kids are working on creative projects, such as writing or artwork, suggest they use AI as a brainstorming tool. ___19___ However, they need to shape those ideas in their unique style. This approach helps them see AI as a springboard for their creativity, not a substitute for their own ideas. Set boundaries on AI use. Just as you set limits on screen time, establish boundaries for AI use. For example, decide that AI can be used for initial research. ___20___ These guidelines highlight that while AI is a valuable tool, it should not replace the learning process or independent thinking.

They used to pretend that they were travelers exploring a new country with lush vegetation (茂盛的草木) and bright yellow daffodils (水仙花) dotting the field, and would drop leaves on the road that they might find their way back again. Everything seemed amazing and appealing. When the ice was thick and firm, they went across the pond. But their mother did not like to have them do this unless someone was with them. “Don’t go across the pond today, children,” she said, as she kissed them and bade them goodbye one morning. “It is beginning to melt. It can be dangerous.” “All right, mother,” said David, though not very good-naturedly, for he was very fond of running and sliding on the ice. When they came to the pond, the ice looked hard and safe. “There,” said he to his sister, “I knew it hadn’t melted any. Mother is always afraid we shall be drowned. Come along, and we will have a good time sliding. The school bell will not ring for an hour at least.” “But you promised mother,” said Susan. “No, I didn’t. I only said ‘All right,’ and it is all right,” said David, holding his head high. “Oh, well, I didn’t say anything; so I can do as I like,” said Susan. So, they stepped on the ice without any delay, and started to go across the pond merrily. They had not gone far before the ice gave way, and they fell into the chilly water all at once. “Help! Help!” they both cried for help in panic. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: A man who was at work near the shore heard the screams of the children. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: David and Susan went home almost frozen. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
