In Beijing, a technology company called DeepSeek has created an AI-powered learming platform(平台) named StudyMate. It helps middle school students with homework, exam preparation, and even stress management. How does it work? StudyMate uses "machine learning" a way for computers to learn from data) to analyze(分析) a student's strengths and weaknesses. For example, if a student often makes mistakes in the same type of math problem, the AI will provide similar exercises and video explanations for him or her. It even tracks(追踪) study time and reminds users to take breaks! Zhang Wei. a 14-year-old user, shared his experience. "Last term, I failed two math tests. My parents bough a StudyMate subscription(订阅). Now, it explains problems step by step, like a real teacher. My grades improved by30%!" However, some teachers worry that AT might replace human communication. Ms, Chen, a science teacher says, "AI tools are helpful, but students stillneed to discuss ideas face-to-face. Machines can't teach teamwork or creativity." DeepSeek's team agrees. "StudyMate isn't meant to replace teachers," says Dr. Liu, the project leader.

AI and teachers can work together effectively C Did you know standing straight for two minutes can make you braver? Scientists cal this "power posing", and it works by changing chemicals in your body. When people feel strong, they stand big-like athletes raising arms after winning. Even people who never saw others do this will stand this way. But when nervous, we make ourselves small-crossing arms or slouching(低头垂肩地站). Studies found that standing in strong poses (like hands on hips) for two minutes increases a confidence hormone激素 by 20% and lowers a stress hormone by 25%. Weak poses Qlike hunching(躬身) over phones) do the opposite(相 反). This simple trick works in real life too. In a job interview experiment, it is easier to be chosen when using strong poses. It wasn't because their answers were better-they just looked calmer and more honest. Another test found that 86% of 'superhero posers" chose to do difficult tasks like trying hard math problems, while only 60% of those who slouched chose to do the same. Amy, a teacher, once felt like a "fake" after a car accident hurt her brain. Doctors said she might never finish school, but she didn't give up. Before every class speech, she stood big in her room for two minutes. Slowly, her confidence grew. A shy student named Maria tried the same method. After practicing strong poses alone for a week, she raised her hand in class for the first time, Her classmates were amazed by her ideas! Why does standing big help? Strong poses send signals(信号) to your brain: "I can do this!" Small actions-like standing big before a test-help you focus on hope, not fear. Before your next challenge-a speech, exam, or meeting-try this: Find a quiet place dlike a bathroom) stand big for two minutes, and breathe. Let your body teach your mind to be brave. C )29.

Quick Ways for Job Interviews: Standing vs. Sitting C. Two Minutes to Courage: The Science of Power Poses D. Maria's Secret: Raising Hands in Class Changed Her Life D ①Giant pandas are among the most lovable animals alive today. Unlike their relatives, such as polar bears pandas do not eat meat. Instead, they depcnd completely on bamboo. But how did these animals change from meat-eaters to plant-lovers? ② Though modern pandas eat no meat, their bodies still show signs of their meat-eating history. Their stomachs and intestines(肠道) are similar to those of meat-eating bears. Every day, a panda eats about 12.5 kg of bamboo, yet only 17% of it. gets properly digested(消化). To survive on such low-energy food, pandas have developed two strategies: eating huge amounts of bamboo and living a lazy life with minimal(极少的) movement to save energy. ③Scientists discovered that pandas' dietary adaption(适应) is related to changes in their genes(基因). A gene called Taslrl, which helps animals taste the proteins(蛋白质) found in meat, stopped working in pandas long ago. This genetic "switch-off" likely pushed them toward a plant-based diet. ④Over time, pandas developed special characteristics to deal with their bamboo-heavy meals. Pandas mus hold long and thin pieces of bamboo shoots. To help with this, they have developed a long "fake-thumb"(伪拇指) So giant pandas have six fingers in each paw which provides better support for them to hold object such as bamboo in one paw quickly. Additionally, while most bears have smooth tongues, pandas' toingues(舌头) have tiny rough bumps(隆起). These bumps act like natural files(钝7J), helping them remove the outer cover of bamboo. Will pandas continue changing their bamboo diet? Could they return to eating meat? Or might they disappear from the wild? While the future remains uncertain, we should treasure sharing our world with these lovely animals while we still can. C )33. Why does the author mention polar bears in the first paragraph? A. To compare their diets with pandas! B. To explain why pandas need more energy C. To prove all bears have similar intestines D. To showpandas-digestive advantage _ 34. What is the relationship between pandas' low digestion rate(率) and their lazy lifestyle? A. The lazy lifestyle causes poor digestion B. Both are results offlow-energy bamboo diet C.
