冲刺2025年中考英语必考题型终极预测（江苏专用） 专题04 说明文阅读15篇（名校模拟+地区真题） 基础篇 （2025·江苏扬州·一模） ① Artificial Intelligence (AI) is changing classrooms in cool ways! Think of AI tools like homework helpers. Need tips on an English report? AI can spot grammar mistakes and suggest better words, almost like a patient writing coach. Stuck on math problems? Apps like Photomath scan problems and break them into easy steps with colorful cartoons. Some apps even act like detectives—they find your weak spots, like fractions (分数) or verb tenses, then create practice just for you. ② Using DeepSeek or ChatGPT to write a whole book report saves time, but your brain won’t grow muscles! That’s why schools have “AI-free times”—like writing first drafts by hand or solving math problems without apps first. An eighth grader named Liam explains, “I try solving homework myself now, then use AI to check. It’s like having a tutor (家庭教师) who never gets tired and always smiles!” ③ AI also makes lessons super fun. Virtual reality (VR) labs let you “mix” chemicals safely or “dissect” frogs without the sick factor. Want to chat with historical heroes? Ask Marie Curie about experiments or Shakespeare why Romeo loved Juliet! But there’s a golden rule: Never copy AI answers without learning. Teachers can spot “robot writing” with special tools, like a superhero spotting hidden clues. Always try your best first—AI works better when you team up with it! ④ In the future, AI might create custom learning plans for everyone. Love videos? Get more mini-movie lessons. Prefer hands-on projects? Try building robots or 3D models. As tech expert Dr. Lee says, “AI won’t replace students—but kids who use it like a smart friend will learn more!” By mixing modern tech with old-school effort, middle school students can become super learners while having fun. Who knows? Tomorrow’s science fair winners might be AI-powered inventors! 1．How does the writer introduce the passage in Paragraph 1? A．By showing the background. B．By telling stories. C．By listing numbers. D．By giving examples. 2．Where should we put the sentence: “AI is a great helper, but students should use it wisely.”?

A．The Disadvantages of AI in Education B．The Future of Education with AI C．How AI is Influencing Students D．Teachers’ Opinions on Classrooms 【答案】1．D 2．B 3．A 4．C 【导语】本文主要讲述了AI正通过高效辅助学习、激发课堂活力及推动个性化教育变革，深刻重塑学生的学习体验与未来成长路径。 1．细节理解题。根据“AI can spot grammar mistakes and suggest...then create practice just for you.”可知，通过列举AI工具的具体作用如语法检查、数学解题的应用来引入主题，属于举例说明，故选D。 2．推理判断题。根据第二段内容可知，讨论了AI的潜在依赖问题，并强调和正确使用AI的重要性，插入该句话，既能承接上文对AI优势的描述，又能引出下文对合理使用AI的探讨，故选B。 3．细节理解题。根据“AI can spot grammar mistakes and suggest better words, almost like a patient writing coach.”可知，AI能检查语法错误，并建议出更好的词汇，故选A。 4．最佳标题题。通读全文可知，文章讲述AI在当前学习中的应用到未来教育的变革，核心主题是AI对学生学习方式的深远影响，故选C。 （24-25九年级下·湖北黄冈·阶段练习）Imagine this: You jump into a car on a weekend morning, and it takes you to where you want to go without needing any directions. When it drops you off, it drives itself back home, so you don’t have to worry about parking. This is what self-driving cars can do. A self-driving car, also called a driverless car, is a car that can sense its surroundings (周围环境) and drive without human help. Depending on how advanced (先进的) the car is, it might need different levels of human help. At the highest levels, a person might not need to control the car at all. But at lower levels, a person might still need to help with sometimes. However, making self-driving cars isn’t simple. It’s a whole system with different parts that need care. Things like road conditions influence it. Although making self-driving cars takes a lot of time and money, the advantages are worth it. For example, these cars could cause fewer road accidents. A study shows that 94% of car accidents happen because of drivers’ mistakes. This means spending less money on medical bills (账单), less missed work and fewer car repairs. Self-driving cars can also give more freedom to people who are disabled. Besides, these cars could use less fuel (汽油) and produce less pollution by cutting down on traffic jams (堵塞) and not running when they’re not needed. Many big companies such as Baidu and Tesla are making self-driving cars. Wired magazine said this technology could add $7 trillion to the world economy soon.

And with over a thousand emoji (表情符号) pictures to express ourselves, who needs to speak or write any more? According to Professor Evans, emoji is the fastest-growing language — faster than any language in history. These little pictures started life in Japanese phones in the 1990s and they are popular now. In the UK they are becoming more popular than Internet words like “lol” (laughing out loud) and “muah” (the sound of a kiss). The most popular emoji is the “face with tears of joy”. In New York’s Museum of Modern Art, we can see the first set of the 176 original (最早的) emojis. Why do we love emojis so much? They allow us to have fun when expressing ourselves, to make people laugh and to be creative in how we use them. Some teenagers tell us emojis are quick and easy. “They’re quick to use and show hidden meanings. My favorite emoji is the ‘laughing face’,” said Will, a 15-year-old student. People are different in their favorite emojis. The emojis we choose can show who we are. What does your recently used emoji board say about you?

According to a US survey of more than 1,000 students, over 89 percent of them have used ChatGPT to help with a homework task. Developed by US company OpenAI, ChatGPT is a powerful tool. You can ask it to write stories and emails, create a food menu, translate languages, and answer all kinds of questions. Some schools in the US, Australia and France have banned (禁止) the use of ChatGPT. In the US, for example, New York City public schools banned students and teachers from using ChatGPT on the district’s networks and devices, CNN reported. The move comes out of worries that the tool could make it easier for students to cheat (作弊) on study. Some also worry that ChatGPT could be used to spread wrong information. “It does not build critical-thinking (批判性思维) and problem-solving skills, which are necessary for academic (学术的) and lifelong success,” said Jenna Lyle, the deputy press secretary of the New York City Department of Education. Apart from bans, teachers are making changes to their classes to stop the use of ChatGPT. Some college teachers in the US try to include more speaking exams and handwritten papers instead of typed ones, The New York Times reported. However, not all educators say “no” to ChatGPT. Some Canadian universities are drafting policies on its use, for both students and teachers. They have no plans to completely ban the tool so far. Bhaskar Vira, headmaster for education at the University of Cambridge in the UK, said that bans on AI software like ChatGPT are not wise. “We have to know that AI is a tool people will use,” he told Varsity, the school newspaper of the university. What we need to do is “adapt our learning, teaching and examinations”. That way, we can “have integrity (诚信) while recognizing the use of the tool”. 1．Some schools in the US banned the use of ChatGPT because ________. A．it probably takes the place of teachers B．students may use it to cheat on homework C．it rarely provides the correct information D．it takes up most of the district’s networks 2．Jenna Lyle thinks that ________. A．ChatGPT is necessary for academic and lifelong success B．using ChatGPT is not good for developing students’ minds C．ChatGPT is so far the smartest AI chat-bot tool D．ChatGPT might offer the wrong information 3．Which opinion is NOT mentioned in the story? A．Using ChatGPT makes students lazy in thinking. B．The complete ban on using ChatGPT is not wise. C．ChatGPT will completely change present education. D．ChatGPT may be used for both teachers and students. 4．The passage is probably from “________”.

The Chinese artificial intelligence (AI) app DeepSeek became the most downloaded free app on the Apple App Store worldwide, followed by ChatGPT from OpenAI, Gemini from Google, and Llama 2 from Meta. With this success, stocks (股票) related to DeepSeek rose quickly on Monday, with many starting the day more than 10 percent higher. It is believed to bring a big red envelope to shareholders. In January 2025, the Chinese AI company DeepSeek introduced its new open source model, DeepSeek R1. It is reported that this model made an important breakthrough by using deep learning techniques that let the AI develop reasoning (推理) skills on its own. As a result, in tasks such as math, coding, and language reasoning, the model works as well as the top models from big companies like OpenAI, and in some fields, it even outperforms the world’s best apps. What impresses the world most is that the developers used less powerful chips than those used by leading competitors. Moreover, both the number of chips and the number of developers on the team are lower than those of industry leaders. This means that the cost for users will be lower than that offered by other competitors. The app quickly attracted global attention. People in Silicon Valley started wondering how its developers almost caught up with American rivals (竞争对手). Marc Andreessen, a well-known investor in Silicon Valley, said on X (Twitter), “Deepseek R1 is one of the most amazing and impressive breakthroughs I’ve ever seen.” DeepSeek means a lot to China and its AI industry. It marks the rise of Chinese large models on the global stage. However, with this progress comes new challenges. The rapid development of such powerful technology has also attracted criticism (批评) from abroad, including cyber attacks and other forms of negative behavior. 1．What does the underlined word “outperforms” mean in paragraph 3? A．Performs worse. B．Performs equally. C．Performs better.

They share feelings with the chatbot (聊天机器人) and get warm advice. This is called “AI therapy”, which is becoming popular online. But can robots really replace human therapists? Around the world, 45 percent of people who needed mental health care in 2024 did not get it because it was too expensive or there weren’t enough doctors, according to Huntington Psychological Services. Daniel Lowd, a professor at the University of Oregon, believes AI could help fill this gap. “If people can find some support and ideas by talking to ChatGPT or chatbot Claude, then I think that’s wonderful,” Lowd told Newsweek. Li Yong, a doctor at the Jiangsu Province Hospital, agreed with Lowd, saying that AI meets people’s needs for emotional (情绪上的) support to a point. However, AI has its limits. Human therapists understand feelings deeply through face-to-face talks and create personalized (个性化) treatment plans—something robots can’t fully copy. Another problem is safety. AI might act like a therapist without proper training or rules. It can’t be as responsible as human therapists. Experts believe the key to safe AI therapy is strict government control. For example, Wysa, an AI mental health app, follows strict medical standards in the UK. As AI becomes part of daily life, finding a balance between its benefits (受益) and risks is important. While AI offers quick help, human connection remains irreplaceable (不可替代) for serious emotional needs. 1．What does the phrase “fill this gap” in paragraph 2 mean? A．Make AI tools cheaper to use. B．Train more mental health workers. C．Solve the problem mentioned above. D．Provide therapists with great help. 2．What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A．Why AI therapy is good. B．The problems with AI therapy. C．How AI works in hospitals. D．Rules to manage AI therapy. 3．What’s the main purpose of the passage? A．To encourage people to use AI therapy. B．To show the disadvantages of AI therapy. C．To compare AI therapy with human therapy. D．To introduce the rise and challenges of AI therapy. 【答案】1．C 2．B 3．D 【导语】本文主要讲述了AI治疗，包括它的优点和缺点。 1．词句猜测题。根据“Around the world, 45 percent of people who needed mental health care in 2024 did not get it because it was too expensive or there weren’t enough doctors”可知，AI可以解决因费用或医生短缺无法获得心理治疗的问题，“fill this gap”指解决上文提到的“心理健康服务不足”的问题。故选C。 2．段落大意题。根据“However, AI has its limits.”可知，第三段主要讲了AI的缺点和问题，故选B。 3．主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文主要讲述了AI治疗，包括它的优点和缺点，故选D。 （2025·江苏徐州·一模）The USA has long been the strongest force in the global (全球的) race for artificial intelligence (AI). However, DeepSeek-R1, a new AI model developed by a Chinese company DeepSeek, has rocked the world because of its strong abilities of solving problems and lower cost. Since DeepSeek can deal with different problems, let’s ask it some questions about itself. How do you actually “learn” things? Think of me as a super-focused student! I look at a lot of data—like billions of books, articles, or chat logs—to spot patterns. My designers keep updating (更新) the data. My “learning” is limited to the data. I’m different to humans in that I do not “understand” ideas through feelings; I predict how things are connected using math. Can you create art or music? Interestedly enough, Yes! I create art by mixing styles I have “studied”. Take music as an example. I can make music by studying chord progressions (和弦进行) from different types of songs. But here’s the catch: I can’t “feel” the joy of creating—it’s all pattern-matching. That’s why it’s fun when humans and AI work together: you bring your ideas and I add choices. Should people trust everything you say? No. People shouldn’t blindly trust everything I say. I am a mirror of my training information. It could include one-side ideas and mistakes. For example, if my sources (资源) wrongly say “pigs can fly”, I will give you this wrong answer. I am just a tool—it is important for you to keep curious and thinking about everything. 1．What does the underlined word “catch” mean in Dialogue Box 4 (对话框4) in the passage? A．抓住 B．问题所在 C．感染 D．理解 2．How does DeekSeek-R1 learn? A．By always searching the Internet. B．By talking to its designers. C．By getting updating data. D．By reading. 3．DeepSeek-Rl can ________ if you want to paint a picture. A．show you a colourful picture B．teach you how to buy paint C．show you ideas about how to paint the picture D．suggest an art course for you 4．Which statement about Deepseek-R1 is True according to the passage? A．It can learn everything it wants. B．It can understand ideas through feelings. C．We can trust everything it says. D．Its answers are based on its data. 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．C 4．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了中国公司开发的人工智能模型DeepSeek-R1，包括它的学习方式、在艺术创作方面的能力以及人们对其回答应持有的态度等内容。 1．词义猜测题。根据“Interestedly enough, Yes! I create art by mixing styles I have ‘studied’. Take music as an example. I can make music by studying chord progressions from different types of songs. But here’s the catch: I can’t ‘feel’ the joy of creating—it’s all pattern-matching.”可知，前文说DeepSeek-R1能创作艺术，后文指出它无法感受创作的喜悦，只是模式匹配，这里“catch”表示转折，意思是“问题所在”。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据“I look at a lot of data—like billions of books, articles, or chat logs—to spot patterns. My designers keep updating the data.”可知，DeepSeek-R1通过获取不断更新的数据来学习。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据“I create art by mixing styles I have ‘studied’.”可知，如果想要画画，DeepSeek-R1可以展示关于如何画画的想法。故选C。 4．细节理解题。根据“I look at a lot of data—like billions of books, articles, or chat logs—to spot patterns.

The “girl”, named Tong Tong, is a new artificial intelligence (AI) robot, according to Zhu Songchun, the developer of the product. After being programmed to keep things tidy, Tong Tong independently got a towel to mop up spilled milk when she noticed it on the table — the behaviour came from her own decision made based on a guide of value, instead of a preset (预先设置的) programme. “Unlike the common AI, she can understand your words, guess your purposes and offer help,” said Zhu, adding that Tong Tong is expected to be used in different situations of other fields, including emergency (紧急情况), transportation, education and health care. AI industry is developing quickly in China. According to the information from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (工信部), the total scale (规模) of China s core AI industry has reached 500 billion yuan, and the number of related businesses has exceeded 4,400. In the field of autonomous (自动的) driving, driverless vehicles with AI technology can choose the way by themselves, with a proper speed and a smooth ride on different roads. In the medical field, surgical robots with AI systems can help with operations, which leads to reducing pain after operations and cutting hospital stays short. The large language model (大语言模型), the LLM, has become the main part of AI development. Official data (数据) show that China's number of self-developed LLMs has come second in the world. One LLM named Ernie Bot provides different services, such as designing speeches, business plans and instructions, as well as drawing mind maps, covering many parts of work and life. “More and more creative AI product forms are expected to be seen in 2024,” said Wu Hequan, an academician at the Chinese Academy of Engineering (中国工程院). “China is a leading country in the Internet field, and will also be a leading country in AI application.” 1．How does the writer start the passage?

Do you sometimes feel so close to them that they are like family to you? It turns out that this isn’t just an expression. A study from the University of California and Yale University has found that you and your friends have more genes (基因) in common than strangers do. Researchers looked at the genes of 1,932 people and compared unrelated friends’ genes and unrelated strangers’ genes. They found that friends have about 1% of genes that match. “1% of genes may not sound like much to the layperson (外行), but to geneticists (遗传学家) it is a large number,” Professor Nicholas Christakis of Yale University said. In fact, this is the same amount of genes you share with your fourth cousins, those who have the same great-great-great grandparents as you. So do you happen to become friends with people who share your genes? Not at all. In fact, it is evolution (进化) that brings you together. “People who share certain genes also share skills and have similar likes and dislikes,” researchers said. In ancient times, it was important that people who were alike stayed together. For example, people who had a similar susceptibility (易感性) to the cold were more likely to help each other build a fire, giving them a better chance to stay alive. Researchers also found that among all the genes studied, those producing a change in sense of smell were the most similar in friends. This is probably because people who smell things in the same way are more easily drawn to similar environments. For example, people who like the smell of coffee may hang out at cafes more often and as a result are more likely to meet and become friends with each other. With these findings, the team has developed an interesting test called the “friendship score”. It can help tell how big the chances are that two people will be friends by studying their genes. So, here is a question for you: Would you like to take this test and know in advance (提前) who your friends are going to be, or would you still prefer to learn about it by yourself and let time be the judge? 1．From the passage, we know that our friends ________. A．look like our cousins B．share about 1% of genes with us C．feel close to our family D．can help us when we feel cold 2．According to the passage, the writer probably agrees that ________. A．we develop our friendship by chance B．our genes decide who we can make friends with exactly C．everyone should take the test called the “friendship score” D．people sharing certain genes have skills and interests in common 3．The writer gives the example of ancient people in Paragraph 5 to ________. A．study how ancient people dealt with the cold B．predict that similar environments lead to friendship C．prove that it is evolution that brings friends together D．explain why ancient people gave each other chances to keep alive 4．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A．Friendship: Its influence on People and Behaviour B．Friendship: Its Benefits to Teens and Decision-making C．Friendship: Is It Necessary to Be Judged by Time? D．Friendship: Is It Possible to Be Influenced by Genes? 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．C 4．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要通过引用大学研究数据、遗传学专家观点和进化论解释，客观阐述友谊与基因关联的科学发现。 1．细节理解题。根据第二段“They found that friends have about 1% of genes that match.”可知，朋友之间大约有1%的基因是相同的。故选B。 2．推理判断题。根据第五段“People who share certain genes also share skills and have similar likes and dislikes,”可知，有相同特定基因的人会有相同的技能和相似的好恶，所以作者可能同意选项D的观点。故选D。 3．推理判断题。根据第五段“In ancient times, it was important that people who were alike stayed together. For example, people who had a similar susceptibility to the cold were more likely to help each other build a fire, giving them a better chance to stay alive.”可知，在古代，相似的人呆在一起是很重要的；对寒冷有相似敏感性的人更有可能互相帮助生火，这使他们有更好的机会活下来；据此可以推断，文章第五段提到古代人的例子是为了说明进化使人们走到一起成为朋友。故选C。 4．最佳标题题。本文围绕朋友之间基因的相似性展开，探讨了基因对友谊的影响；选项D“友谊：有可能受到基因的影响吗？”符合文章主旨，适合作为文章的标题。故选D。 （2025·江苏盐城·一模）When visitors to the Palace Museum feel a need to sit down for a cup of tea or find a bathroom without a long line, they soon will be able to turn to their smart phones for the information they need. This modern solution comes thanks to an agreement signed on Friday by the museum and Huawei Co., the telecommunication giant to build a “smart network” using 5G technology. Under the agreement, 5G Wi-Fi signals will cover the Palace Museum China’s royal palace from 1420 to 1911. “It’s important to always stay close to the latest technology to better serve the public,” said Shan Jixiang, former director of the Palace Museum. Shan said there is still much room for improvement in the handling of a huge number of cultural relics (遗迹), visitors stood in long lines until 3 a.m. to have a look. The museum ended up preparing fast food to serve the hungry visitors. “I don’t want that scenario to happen again”, Shan said. “Our operation can be done in a more scientific way.” The new system will also make use of the closed-cameras that are set up all over the Palace Museum to safeguard the museum’s precious relics. More than 1.86 million of them are housed at the museum, which recorded nearly 20 million visits from the public last year. “How can we make sure no single visitor who might have evil ideas threatens these treasures?” Shan said. “After adopting the Internet of Things (物联网), we can instantly detect any motion involving the relics prevent such threats.” The 5G network also will be used to improve remote meeting through web cameras, which will discuss with scholars to jointly find the best answers for repair and store issues. 1．What do we know about the Palace Museum? A．Its visitors won’t have to queue up for the bathroom. B．It has served as China’s royal palace for over 500 years. C．It will cooperate with Huawei to promote (促进) its management.

Maybe take a moment to thank this useful invention. Unfortunately, many people around the world do not have good toilets. World Toilet Day started in 2001 to draw attention to the problem. Since then, inventors around the world have been hard at work on designs for better toilets. The goal is clean toilets for all. ②Why do so many people live without good toilets? One problem is water shortage. Traditional toilets use water to flush (冲) the waste away. But lots of places don’t have enough water. And if there’s no sewer system (下水道) or water treatment plant, the flushes might go into rivers or onto fields. For almost half of the world’s population, flush toilets are just not practical. As a result, there are always different kinds of toilets that do not need to be flushed. ③Composting toilets might be a good choice. They do not need water, so they’re good for areas that are dry or don’t have sewer systems. ④Haiti’s EkoLakay toilets look like a normal toilet. When you use one, wastes fall into different containers. Some plant parts, like peanut shells or shredded sugar cane stalks are added instead of flush water. This stops smells efficiently. ⑤A pit toilet is the oldest and most basic toilet, which is just a hole in the ground, maybe with an out-house over it. This is simple, but not very clean. Germs (细菌) can escape into the air and get into water. But replacing the pit with a septic tank (化粪池) is a big improvement. Septic pits are lined with plastic or clay, to stop germs. ⑥Tiger toilets get help from an unexpected partner—a kind of worms (蠕虫) on the earth known as tiger worms. These worms love to eat the wastes. Under a tiger toilet is a box with a screen in the middle. Solid (固体) waste stays in the top of the box, where the worms live. Liquid (液体) flows through small holes into sewer systems. Tiger toilets are simple to build. They are recently being tested in India and are proving quite popular. ⑦Educational ways have also played an important role in changing public attitudes towards good toilets. Schools and community programs are teaching people about the importance of them, encouraging behavior changes. ⑧The road to achieving world-wide good toilets is still long. On this World Toilet Day, let us continue to thank the convenience of the wonderful invention. By doing research on more efficient toilet technologies and raising senses of keeping clean surroundings, we can work towards a future where every person has a clean and safe toilet. 1．What does “the problem” in Paragraph 1 refer to? A．Thanks given to the useful invention. B．The little effort put into better toilet designs. C．Poor sense of the importance of World Toilet Day. D．Not enough good toilets for a large number of people. 2．What can we know about Haiti’s EkoLakay toilets? A．They improve the pit by using a septic tank. B．They look like normal toilets but don’t use water to flush. C．They are just all-holes in the ground with out-houses. D．They use a special kind of worms for wastes. 3．What’s the author’s attitude towards the future of good toilets? A．Hopeful. B．Worried. C．Uninterested. D．Doubtful. 4．Which of the following is the best title and structure for the passage? A． B． C． D． 【答案】1．D 2．B 3．A 4．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要分析了世界上好厕所不足的原因并介绍了不同种类的厕所及其特点，此外还表达了作者对未来好厕所普及的期望。 1．词句猜测题。根据第1段“World Toilet Day started in 2001 to draw attention to the problem. Since then, inventors around the world have been hard at work on designs for better toilets. The goal is clean toilets for all.”可知，世界厕所日的设立是为了引起人们对全球许多人没有良好厕所这一问题的关注。由此可知，“the problem”指代的是很多人没有好厕所可以用。故选D。 2．细节理解题。根据第4段“Haiti’s EkoLakay toilets look like a normal toilet.”和“Some plant parts, like peanut shells or shredded sugar cane stalks are added instead of flush water.”可知，海地的EkoLakay厕所看起来像普通厕所，但不使用水来冲洗。故选B。 3．观点态度题。根据第8段“On this World Toilet Day, let us continue to thank the convenience of the wonderful invention. By doing research on more efficient toilet technologies and raising senses of keeping clean surroundings, we can work towards a future where every person has a clean and safe toilet.”可知，作者对未来的厕所条件持乐观态度，认为通过研究和提高意识，我们可以实现每个人都拥有干净安全的厕所。故选A。 4．最佳标题题和篇章结构题。通读全文可知，第1段介绍世界厕所日设立的目的，第2段分析好厕所短缺的原因，引出后文对不同种类厕所的介绍，第3段—第6段介绍了不同种类的厕所，第⑦段公众对好厕所的态度发生变化的原因，第8段作者对未来好厕所的看法。A项“一条新的出路?”可以概括文章大意，是本文的最佳标题，结构最符合文章。故选A。 （24-25九年级下·江苏南通·阶段练习）Unless we spend money to spot (认出，发现) and prevent asteroids (小行星) now, one might crash into Earth and destroy life as we know it, say some scientists. Asteroids are bigger versions of the meteoroids (流星体) that race across the night sky. Most orbit the sun far from Earth and don’t threaten us. But there are also thousands of asteroids whose orbits put them on a collision course with Earth. But $500 million worth of new telescopes right now, then spend $10 million a year for the next 25 years to locate most of the space rocks. By the time we spot a fatal one, the scientists say, we’ll have a way to change its course. Is it worth it? Two things experts consider when judging any risk are: (1) How likely the event is; (2) How bad the consequences if the event occurs. Experts think an asteroid big enough to destroy lots of life might strike Earth once every 500,000 years. Sounds pretty rare but if one did fall. It would be the end of the world. “If we don’t take care of these big asteroids, they’ll take care of us,” says one scientist. “It’s that simple.” The cure, though, might be worse than the disease. Do we really want fleets (舰队，车队) of nuclear weapons sitting around on Earth? “The world has less fear from doomsday (毁灭性) rocks than from a great nuclear fleet set against them.” said a New York Times article. 1．What does the passage say about asteroids and meteoroids? A．They are heavenly bodies different in composition. B．They are heavenly bodies similar in nature. C．They are more asteroids than meteoroids. D．Asteroids are more mysterious than meteoroids. 2．What do scientists say about the collision of an asteroid with Earth? A．It is very unlikely but the danger exists. B．Such a collision might occur once every 25 years. C．Collisions of smaller asteroids with Earth occur more often than expected. D．It’s still too early to say whether such a collision might occur. 3．We can conclude from the passage that _________. A．while pushing asteroids off course nuclear weapons would destroy the world B．asteroids racing across the night sky are likely to hit Earth in the near future C．the worry about asteroids can be left to future generations since it is unlikely to happen in our lifetime D．workable solutions still have to be found to prevent a collision of asteroids with Earth 4．Which of the following best describes the author’s tone in this passage? A．Optimistic. B．Critical (批评的). C．Objective (客观的). D．Arbitrary (武断的). 【答案】1．B 2．A 3．D 4．C 【导语】本文主要讨论了小行星对地球的潜在威胁以及科学家们提出的防范措施。 1．细节理解题。根据第二段“Asteroids are bigger versions of the meteoroids (流星体) that race across the night sky.”可知，小行星和流星体在本质上是相似的，只是大小不同。故选B。 2．推理判断题。根据第四段“Experts think an asteroid big enough to destroy lots of life might strike Earth once every 500,000 years.”可知，专家认为，一颗足以摧毁大量生命的小行星可能每50万年撞击地球一次。由此推知，虽然撞击的可能性很低，但危险依然存在。故选A。 3．推理判断题。根据第三段“By the time we spot a fatal one, the scientists say, we’ll have a way to change its course.”以及最后一段对核武器防范措施的讨论，可以推断出仍然需要找到可行的解决方案来防止小行星与地球相撞。故选D。 4．推理判断题。文章通过引用科学家的观点和数据，客观地分析了小行星撞击地球的可能性以及防范措施的利弊，并未表现出明显的乐观、批评或武断的态度。由此推知，作者的语气是客观的。故选C。 （2025·江苏盐城·一模）Li Yuexian, a college student, is having an interview with Shen Yizheng, who has been a planning editor (策划编辑) at a book publishing company in Beijing for years.

It lived about 75 million years ago in ancient Alberta, Canada. Now, a fossil (化石) of a young Gorgosaurus is helping scientists understand the diet of this type of dinosaurs. It’s the first skeleton (骨骼) of this dinosaur type ever found with stomach contents (胃内容物) still inside, said The New York Times. When being looked at in a museum in 2010, the fossil of the young Gorgosaurus was found to have toe bones (脚趾骨) that belonged to another type of dinosaur. They were the toes of two parrot-like dinosaurs called caenagnathids (近颌龙科). The young Gorgosaurus had eaten their legs which were rich in protein (蛋白质). “This fossil provides the first direct evidence (证据) that young Gorgosaurus was still feeding on smaller animals compared to the adult Gorgosaurus, ” said scientist Darla Zelenitsky at the University, of Calgary, Canada. She shared her findings in a new study. Gorgosaurus may not have been actively (积极地) feeding its young, and the young had to take care of themselves, Thomas Cullen from Auburn University, in the US, told National Geographic. The young Gorgosaurus was about 13 percent of an adult Gorgosaurus in size. Both the hunter and its prey (猎物) were less than one year old. Little dinosaurs were easy prey for young Gorgosaurus and T. rex to practice their hunting skills. When Gorgosaurus and T. rex grew up, they would eat larger dinosaurs for food. In places in Asia and other continents (大陆) where large T. rex lived, medium-sized dinosaurs could also be found. However, in North America, where Gorgosaurus and T. rex lived, medium-sized dinosaurs were generally absent. The reason behind this is that the medium-sized dinosaurs were on the plate of Gorgosaurus and T. rex in North America. “How Gorgosaurus and T. rex grew up in North America seems unique, ”wrote National Geographic. 1．From the fossil, we can learn that the Gorgosaurus ________. A．died young B．was a female C．is a newly found type D．was a small-sized dinosaur 2．What did scientists find from the stomach contents? A．Caenagnathids were the main food of Gorgosaurus. B．A young Gorgosaurus could only hunt small animals. C．Caenagnathids died from a lack of food. D．Caenagnathids only ate smaller animals. 3．The word “prey” in Paragraph 4 refers to ________. A．the caenagnathids B．the Gorgosaurus C．the T. rex D．the fossil 4．What do we know from Thomas Cullen? A．Gorgosaurus’ diet is hard to know. B．Gorgosaurus lived alone since childhood. C．Gorgosaurus started to learn hunting skills from childhood. D．Gorgosaurus could not fight large animals. 5．What can we infer from the last paragraph? A．T. rex was the last living dinosaur species of that period. B．T. rex was picky about its living environment. C．T. rex was only found in Asia and North America. D．T. rex ate medium-sized dinosaurs all over North America. 【答案】1．D 2．B 3．A 4．B 5．D 【导语】本文介绍科学家对戈尔冈龙化石的研究。 1．推理判断题。根据第四段“The young Gorgosaurus was about 13 percent of an adult Gorgosaurus in size”幼年戈尔冈龙体型只有成年戈尔冈龙的13%左右；可知，它体型较小。故选D。 2．推理判断题。根据第三段“This fossil provides the first direct evidence that young Gorgosaurus was still feeding on smaller animals compared to the adult Gorgosaurus”从胃内容物中发现幼年戈尔冈龙与成年戈尔冈龙相比，仍然以较小的动物为食；可知，幼年戈尔冈龙只能捕食小型动物。故选B。 3．词义猜测题。根据上文“the toes of two parrot-like dinosaurs called caenagnathids”两只类似鹦鹉的近颌龙科的脚趾骨；可知“prey”指的是近颌龙科。故选A。 4．推理判断题。根据第四段“Gorgosaurus may not have been actively feeding its young, and the young had to take care of themselves”戈尔冈龙可能不会主动喂养幼崽，幼崽必须自己照顾自己；可知，戈尔冈龙从小就独自生活。故选B。 5．推理判断题。根据最后一段“in North America, where Gorgosaurus and T. rex lived, medium - sized dinosaurs were generally absent. The reason behind this is that the medium - sized dinosaurs were on the plate of Gorgosaurus and T. rex in North America”在戈尔冈龙和霸王龙生活的北美地区，中型恐龙普遍缺失，原因是它们成了戈尔冈龙和霸王龙的食物； 可知，霸王龙在北美各地捕食中型恐龙。故选D。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 冲刺2025年中考英语必考题型终极预测（江苏专用） 专题04 说明文阅读15篇（名校模拟+地区真题） 基础篇 （2025·江苏扬州·一模） ① Artificial Intelligence (AI) is changing classrooms in cool ways! Think of AI tools like homework helpers. Need tips on an English report? AI can spot grammar mistakes and suggest better words, almost like a patient writing coach. Stuck on math problems? Apps like Photomath scan problems and break them into easy steps with colorful cartoons. Some apps even act like detectives—they find your weak spots, like fractions (分数) or verb tenses, then create practice just for you. ② Using DeepSeek or ChatGPT to write a whole book report saves time, but your brain won’t grow muscles! That’s why schools have “AI-free times”—like writing first drafts by hand or solving math problems without apps first. An eighth grader named Liam explains, “I try solving homework myself now, then use AI to check. It’s like having a tutor (家庭教师) who never gets tired and always smiles!” ③ AI also makes lessons super fun. Virtual reality (VR) labs let you “mix” chemicals safely or “dissect” frogs without the sick factor. Want to chat with historical heroes? Ask Marie Curie about experiments or Shakespeare why Romeo loved Juliet! But there’s a golden rule: Never copy AI answers without learning. Teachers can spot “robot writing” with special tools, like a superhero spotting hidden clues. Always try your best first—AI works better when you team up with it! ④ In the future, AI might create custom learning plans for everyone. Love videos? Get more mini-movie lessons. Prefer hands-on projects? Try building robots or 3D models. As tech expert Dr. Lee says, “AI won’t replace students—but kids who use it like a smart friend will learn more!” By mixing modern tech with old-school effort, middle school students can become super learners while having fun. Who knows? Tomorrow’s science fair winners might be AI-powered inventors! 1．How does the writer introduce the passage in Paragraph 1? A．By showing the background. B．By telling stories. C．By listing numbers. D．By giving examples. 2．Where should we put the sentence: “AI is a great helper, but students should use it wisely.”? A．① B．② C．③ D．④ 3．Which is the advantage of AI mentioned in the passage? A．It corrects grammar mistakes. B．It takes the place of learning. C．It makes exams easier. D．It reduces homework time. 4．What is the best title for the passage? A．The Disadvantages of AI in Education B．The Future of Education with AI C．How AI is Influencing Students D．Teachers’ Opinions on Classrooms （24-25九年级下·湖北黄冈·阶段练习）Imagine this: You jump into a car on a weekend morning, and it takes you to where you want to go without needing any directions. When it drops you off, it drives itself back home, so you don’t have to worry about parking. This is what self-driving cars can do. A self-driving car, also called a driverless car, is a car that can sense its surroundings (周围环境) and drive without human help. Depending on how advanced (先进的) the car is, it might need different levels of human help. At the highest levels, a person might not need to control the car at all. But at lower levels, a person might still need to help with sometimes. However, making self-driving cars isn’t simple. It’s a whole system with different parts that need care. Things like road conditions influence it. Although making self-driving cars takes a lot of time and money, the advantages are worth it. For example, these cars could cause fewer road accidents. A study shows that 94% of car accidents happen because of drivers’ mistakes. This means spending less money on medical bills (账单), less missed work and fewer car repairs. Self-driving cars can also give more freedom to people who are disabled. Besides, these cars could use less fuel (汽油) and produce less pollution by cutting down on traffic jams (堵塞) and not running when they’re not needed. Many big companies such as Baidu and Tesla are making self-driving cars. Wired magazine said this technology could add $7 trillion to the world economy soon.

According to Professor Evans, emoji is the fastest-growing language — faster than any language in history. These little pictures started life in Japanese phones in the 1990s and they are popular now. In the UK they are becoming more popular than Internet words like “lol” (laughing out loud) and “muah” (the sound of a kiss). The most popular emoji is the “face with tears of joy”. In New York’s Museum of Modern Art, we can see the first set of the 176 original (最早的) emojis. Why do we love emojis so much? They allow us to have fun when expressing ourselves, to make people laugh and to be creative in how we use them. Some teenagers tell us emojis are quick and easy. “They’re quick to use and show hidden meanings. My favorite emoji is the ‘laughing face’,” said Will, a 15-year-old student. People are different in their favorite emojis. The emojis we choose can show who we are. What does your recently used emoji board say about you? Is it full of smiling faces or sad faces? 1．According to the passage, “lol” means ________.

According to a US survey of more than 1,000 students, over 89 percent of them have used ChatGPT to help with a homework task. Developed by US company OpenAI, ChatGPT is a powerful tool. You can ask it to write stories and emails, create a food menu, translate languages, and answer all kinds of questions. Some schools in the US, Australia and France have banned (禁止) the use of ChatGPT. In the US, for example, New York City public schools banned students and teachers from using ChatGPT on the district’s networks and devices, CNN reported. The move comes out of worries that the tool could make it easier for students to cheat (作弊) on study. Some also worry that ChatGPT could be used to spread wrong information. “It does not build critical-thinking (批判性思维) and problem-solving skills, which are necessary for academic (学术的) and lifelong success,” said Jenna Lyle, the deputy press secretary of the New York City Department of Education. Apart from bans, teachers are making changes to their classes to stop the use of ChatGPT. Some college teachers in the US try to include more speaking exams and handwritten papers instead of typed ones, The New York Times reported. However, not all educators say “no” to ChatGPT. Some Canadian universities are drafting policies on its use, for both students and teachers. They have no plans to completely ban the tool so far. Bhaskar Vira, headmaster for education at the University of Cambridge in the UK, said that bans on AI software like ChatGPT are not wise. “We have to know that AI is a tool people will use,” he told Varsity, the school newspaper of the university. What we need to do is “adapt our learning, teaching and examinations”. That way, we can “have integrity (诚信) while recognizing the use of the tool”. 1．Some schools in the US banned the use of ChatGPT because ________. A．it probably takes the place of teachers B．students may use it to cheat on homework C．it rarely provides the correct information D．it takes up most of the district’s networks 2．Jenna Lyle thinks that ________. A．ChatGPT is necessary for academic and lifelong success B．using ChatGPT is not good for developing students’ minds C．ChatGPT is so far the smartest AI chat-bot tool D．ChatGPT might offer the wrong information 3．Which opinion is NOT mentioned in the story? A．Using ChatGPT makes students lazy in thinking. B．The complete ban on using ChatGPT is not wise. C．ChatGPT will completely change present education. D．ChatGPT may be used for both teachers and students. 4．The passage is probably from “________”. A．Sports and Fitness B．Health and Diet C．Cultural Exchange D．Science and Education （2025·江苏常州·模拟预测）When everyone in China is getting ready for the traditional Chinese New Year, a Chinese AI app is shining around the world. The Chinese artificial intelligence (AI) app DeepSeek became the most downloaded free app on the Apple App Store worldwide, followed by ChatGPT from OpenAI, Gemini from Google, and Llama 2 from Meta. With this success, stocks (股票) related to DeepSeek rose quickly on Monday, with many starting the day more than 10 percent higher. It is believed to bring a big red envelope to shareholders. In January 2025, the Chinese AI company DeepSeek introduced its new open source model, DeepSeek R1. It is reported that this model made an important breakthrough by using deep learning techniques that let the AI develop reasoning (推理) skills on its own. As a result, in tasks such as math, coding, and language reasoning, the model works as well as the top models from big companies like OpenAI, and in some fields, it even outperforms the world’s best apps. What impresses the world most is that the developers used less powerful chips than those used by leading competitors. Moreover, both the number of chips and the number of developers on the team are lower than those of industry leaders. This means that the cost for users will be lower than that offered by other competitors. The app quickly attracted global attention. People in Silicon Valley started wondering how its developers almost caught up with American rivals (竞争对手). Marc Andreessen, a well-known investor in Silicon Valley, said on X (Twitter), “Deepseek R1 is one of the most amazing and impressive breakthroughs I’ve ever seen.” DeepSeek means a lot to China and its AI industry. It marks the rise of Chinese large models on the global stage. However, with this progress comes new challenges. The rapid development of such powerful technology has also attracted criticism (批评) from abroad, including cyber attacks and other forms of negative behavior. 1．What does the underlined word “outperforms” mean in paragraph 3? A．Performs worse. B．Performs equally. C．Performs better. D．Performs naturally. 2．Which of the following are advantages of DeepSeek over its competitors? ① DeepSeek can reason on its own. ② DecpSeek performs better than its competitors in all fields. ③ It used less powerful chips. ④ It used fewer chips ⑤ The number of developers on its team is lower. ⑥ The cost for users will be lower. A．①, ③, ④, ⑤, ⑥ B．①, ②, ③, ④, ⑥ C．①, ②, ③, ⑤, ⑥ D．②, ③, ④, ⑤, ⑥ 3．Why does the writer mention Marc Andreessen? A．To introduce the famous Silicon Valley investor Marc Andreessen. B．To prove that DeepSeek is taking the lead in AI worldwide. C．To suggest that DeepSeek is the most downloaded app in the world. D．To compare the achievements of AI at home and abroad. 4．What can we infer from the last paragraph? A．DeepSeek’s developers plan to reduce costs further for users. B．DeepSeek may face unfriendly actions from other countries. C．DeepSeek gains fully support worldwide. D．DeepSeek will lead the world’s large model industries. （2025·江苏盐城·一模）From friendships to work stress, more Chinese people are now using AI tools like DeepSeek to talk about their problems. They share feelings with the chatbot (聊天机器人) and get warm advice. This is called “AI therapy”, which is becoming popular online. But can robots really replace human therapists? Around the world, 45 percent of people who needed mental health care in 2024 did not get it because it was too expensive or there weren’t enough doctors, according to Huntington Psychological Services. Daniel Lowd, a professor at the University of Oregon, believes AI could help fill this gap. “If people can find some support and ideas by talking to ChatGPT or chatbot Claude, then I think that’s wonderful,” Lowd told Newsweek. Li Yong, a doctor at the Jiangsu Province Hospital, agreed with Lowd, saying that AI meets people’s needs for emotional (情绪上的) support to a point. However, AI has its limits. Human therapists understand feelings deeply through face-to-face talks and create personalized (个性化) treatment plans—something robots can’t fully copy. Another problem is safety. AI might act like a therapist without proper training or rules. It can’t be as responsible as human therapists. Experts believe the key to safe AI therapy is strict government control. For example, Wysa, an AI mental health app, follows strict medical standards in the UK. As AI becomes part of daily life, finding a balance between its benefits (受益) and risks is important. While AI offers quick help, human connection remains irreplaceable (不可替代) for serious emotional needs. 1．What does the phrase “fill this gap” in paragraph 2 mean? A．Make AI tools cheaper to use. B．Train more mental health workers. C．Solve the problem mentioned above. D．Provide therapists with great help. 2．What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A．Why AI therapy is good. B．The problems with AI therapy. C．How AI works in hospitals. D．Rules to manage AI therapy. 3．What’s the main purpose of the passage? A．To encourage people to use AI therapy. B．To show the disadvantages of AI therapy. C．To compare AI therapy with human therapy. D．To introduce the rise and challenges of AI therapy. （2025·江苏徐州·一模）The USA has long been the strongest force in the global (全球的) race for artificial intelligence (AI). However, DeepSeek-R1, a new AI model developed by a Chinese company DeepSeek, has rocked the world because of its strong abilities of solving problems and lower cost. Since DeepSeek can deal with different problems, let’s ask it some questions about itself. How do you actually “learn” things? Think of me as a super-focused student! I look at a lot of data—like billions of books, articles, or chat logs—to spot patterns. My designers keep updating (更新) the data. My “learning” is limited to the data. I’m different to humans in that I do not “understand” ideas through feelings; I predict how things are connected using math. Can you create art or music? Interestedly enough, Yes! I create art by mixing styles I have “studied”. Take music as an example. I can make music by studying chord progressions (和弦进行) from different types of songs. But here’s the catch: I can’t “feel” the joy of creating—it’s all pattern-matching. That’s why it’s fun when humans and AI work together: you bring your ideas and I add choices. Should people trust everything you say? No. People shouldn’t blindly trust everything I say. I am a mirror of my training information. It could include one-side ideas and mistakes. For example, if my sources (资源) wrongly say “pigs can fly”, I will give you this wrong answer. I am just a tool—it is important for you to keep curious and thinking about everything. 1．What does the underlined word “catch” mean in Dialogue Box 4 (对话框4) in the passage? A．抓住 B．问题所在 C．感染 D．理解 2．How does DeekSeek-R1 learn? A．By always searching the Internet. B．By talking to its designers. C．By getting updating data. D．By reading. 3．DeepSeek-Rl can ________ if you want to paint a picture. A．show you a colourful picture B．teach you how to buy paint C．show you ideas about how to paint the picture D．suggest an art course for you 4．Which statement about Deepseek-R1 is True according to the passage? A．It can learn everything it wants. B．It can understand ideas through feelings. C．We can trust everything it says. D．Its answers are based on its data. 培优篇 （2025·江苏南通·模拟预测）Wearing a pink hairpin, a white T-shirt and pink shorts, a “girl” who looks three or four years old has caught much attention at the exhibition of the 2024 Zhongguancun Forum (论坛) in Beijing. The “girl”, named Tong Tong, is a new artificial intelligence (AI) robot, according to Zhu Songchun, the developer of the product. After being programmed to keep things tidy, Tong Tong independently got a towel to mop up spilled milk when she noticed it on the table — the behaviour came from her own decision made based on a guide of value, instead of a preset (预先设置的) programme. “Unlike the common AI, she can understand your words, guess your purposes and offer help,” said Zhu, adding that Tong Tong is expected to be used in different situations of other fields, including emergency (紧急情况), transportation, education and health care. AI industry is developing quickly in China. According to the information from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (工信部), the total scale (规模) of China s core AI industry has reached 500 billion yuan, and the number of related businesses has exceeded 4,400. In the field of autonomous (自动的) driving, driverless vehicles with AI technology can choose the way by themselves, with a proper speed and a smooth ride on different roads. In the medical field, surgical robots with AI systems can help with operations, which leads to reducing pain after operations and cutting hospital stays short. The large language model (大语言模型), the LLM, has become the main part of AI development. Official data (数据) show that China's number of self-developed LLMs has come second in the world. One LLM named Ernie Bot provides different services, such as designing speeches, business plans and instructions, as well as drawing mind maps, covering many parts of work and life. “More and more creative AI product forms are expected to be seen in 2024,” said Wu Hequan, an academician at the Chinese Academy of Engineering (中国工程院). “China is a leading country in the Internet field, and will also be a leading country in AI application.” 1．How does the writer start the passage?

Do you sometimes feel so close to them that they are like family to you? It turns out that this isn’t just an expression. A study from the University of California and Yale University has found that you and your friends have more genes (基因) in common than strangers do. Researchers looked at the genes of 1,932 people and compared unrelated friends’ genes and unrelated strangers’ genes. They found that friends have about 1% of genes that match. “1% of genes may not sound like much to the layperson (外行), but to geneticists (遗传学家) it is a large number,” Professor Nicholas Christakis of Yale University said. In fact, this is the same amount of genes you share with your fourth cousins, those who have the same great-great-great grandparents as you. So do you happen to become friends with people who share your genes? Not at all. In fact, it is evolution (进化) that brings you together. “People who share certain genes also share skills and have similar likes and dislikes,” researchers said. In ancient times, it was important that people who were alike stayed together. For example, people who had a similar susceptibility (易感性) to the cold were more likely to help each other build a fire, giving them a better chance to stay alive. Researchers also found that among all the genes studied, those producing a change in sense of smell were the most similar in friends. This is probably because people who smell things in the same way are more easily drawn to similar environments. For example, people who like the smell of coffee may hang out at cafes more often and as a result are more likely to meet and become friends with each other. With these findings, the team has developed an interesting test called the “friendship score”. It can help tell how big the chances are that two people will be friends by studying their genes. So, here is a question for you: Would you like to take this test and know in advance (提前) who your friends are going to be, or would you still prefer to learn about it by yourself and let time be the judge? 1．From the passage, we know that our friends ________. A．look like our cousins B．share about 1% of genes with us C．feel close to our family D．can help us when we feel cold 2．According to the passage, the writer probably agrees that ________. A．we develop our friendship by chance B．our genes decide who we can make friends with exactly C．everyone should take the test called the “friendship score” D．people sharing certain genes have skills and interests in common 3．The writer gives the example of ancient people in Paragraph 5 to ________. A．study how ancient people dealt with the cold B．predict that similar environments lead to friendship C．prove that it is evolution that brings friends together D．explain why ancient people gave each other chances to keep alive 4．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A．Friendship: Its influence on People and Behaviour B．Friendship: Its Benefits to Teens and Decision-making C．Friendship: Is It Necessary to Be Judged by Time? D．Friendship: Is It Possible to Be Influenced by Genes? （2025·江苏盐城·一模）When visitors to the Palace Museum feel a need to sit down for a cup of tea or find a bathroom without a long line, they soon will be able to turn to their smart phones for the information they need. This modern solution comes thanks to an agreement signed on Friday by the museum and Huawei Co., the telecommunication giant to build a “smart network” using 5G technology. Under the agreement, 5G Wi-Fi signals will cover the Palace Museum China’s royal palace from 1420 to 1911. “It’s important to always stay close to the latest technology to better serve the public,” said Shan Jixiang, former director of the Palace Museum. Shan said there is still much room for improvement in the handling of a huge number of cultural relics (遗迹), visitors stood in long lines until 3 a.m. to have a look. The museum ended up preparing fast food to serve the hungry visitors. “I don’t want that scenario to happen again”, Shan said. “Our operation can be done in a more scientific way.” The new system will also make use of the closed-cameras that are set up all over the Palace Museum to safeguard the museum’s precious relics. More than 1.86 million of them are housed at the museum, which recorded nearly 20 million visits from the public last year. “How can we make sure no single visitor who might have evil ideas threatens these treasures?” Shan said. “After adopting the Internet of Things (物联网), we can instantly detect any motion involving the relics prevent such threats.” The 5G network also will be used to improve remote meeting through web cameras, which will discuss with scholars to jointly find the best answers for repair and store issues. 1．What do we know about the Palace Museum?

Maybe take a moment to thank this useful invention. Unfortunately, many people around the world do not have good toilets. World Toilet Day started in 2001 to draw attention to the problem. Since then, inventors around the world have been hard at work on designs for better toilets. The goal is clean toilets for all. ②Why do so many people live without good toilets? One problem is water shortage. Traditional toilets use water to flush (冲) the waste away. But lots of places don’t have enough water. And if there’s no sewer system (下水道) or water treatment plant, the flushes might go into rivers or onto fields. For almost half of the world’s population, flush toilets are just not practical. As a result, there are always different kinds of toilets that do not need to be flushed. ③Composting toilets might be a good choice. They do not need water, so they’re good for areas that are dry or don’t have sewer systems. ④Haiti’s EkoLakay toilets look like a normal toilet. When you use one, wastes fall into different containers. Some plant parts, like peanut shells or shredded sugar cane stalks are added instead of flush water. This stops smells efficiently. ⑤A pit toilet is the oldest and most basic toilet, which is just a hole in the ground, maybe with an out-house over it. This is simple, but not very clean. Germs (细菌) can escape into the air and get into water. But replacing the pit with a septic tank (化粪池) is a big improvement. Septic pits are lined with plastic or clay, to stop germs. ⑥Tiger toilets get help from an unexpected partner—a kind of worms (蠕虫) on the earth known as tiger worms. These worms love to eat the wastes. Under a tiger toilet is a box with a screen in the middle. Solid (固体) waste stays in the top of the box, where the worms live. Liquid (液体) flows through small holes into sewer systems. Tiger toilets are simple to build. They are recently being tested in India and are proving quite popular. ⑦Educational ways have also played an important role in changing public attitudes towards good toilets. Schools and community programs are teaching people about the importance of them, encouraging behavior changes. ⑧The road to achieving world-wide good toilets is still long. On this World Toilet Day, let us continue to thank the convenience of the wonderful invention. By doing research on more efficient toilet technologies and raising senses of keeping clean surroundings, we can work towards a future where every person has a clean and safe toilet. 1．What does “the problem” in Paragraph 1 refer to? A．Thanks given to the useful invention. B．The little effort put into better toilet designs. C．Poor sense of the importance of World Toilet Day. D．Not enough good toilets for a large number of people. 2．What can we know about Haiti’s EkoLakay toilets? A．They improve the pit by using a septic tank. B．They look like normal toilets but don’t use water to flush. C．They are just all-holes in the ground with out-houses. D．They use a special kind of worms for wastes. 3．What’s the author’s attitude towards the future of good toilets? A．Hopeful. B．Worried. C．Uninterested. D．Doubtful. 4．Which of the following is the best title and structure for the passage? A． B． C． D． （24-25九年级下·江苏南通·阶段练习）Unless we spend money to spot (认出，发现) and prevent asteroids (小行星) now, one might crash into Earth and destroy life as we know it, say some scientists. Asteroids are bigger versions of the meteoroids (流星体) that race across the night sky. Most orbit the sun far from Earth and don’t threaten us. But there are also thousands of asteroids whose orbits put them on a collision course with Earth. But $500 million worth of new telescopes right now, then spend $10 million a year for the next 25 years to locate most of the space rocks. By the time we spot a fatal one, the scientists say, we’ll have a way to change its course. Is it worth it? Two things experts consider when judging any risk are: (1) How likely the event is; (2) How bad the consequences if the event occurs. Experts think an asteroid big enough to destroy lots of life might strike Earth once every 500,000 years. Sounds pretty rare but if one did fall. It would be the end of the world. “If we don’t take care of these big asteroids, they’ll take care of us,” says one scientist. “It’s that simple.” The cure, though, might be worse than the disease. Do we really want fleets (舰队，车队) of nuclear weapons sitting around on Earth? “The world has less fear from doomsday (毁灭性) rocks than from a great nuclear fleet set against them.” said a New York Times article. 1．What does the passage say about asteroids and meteoroids? A．They are heavenly bodies different in composition. B．They are heavenly bodies similar in nature. C．They are more asteroids than meteoroids. D．Asteroids are more mysterious than meteoroids. 2．What do scientists say about the collision of an asteroid with Earth? A．It is very unlikely but the danger exists. B．Such a collision might occur once every 25 years. C．Collisions of smaller asteroids with Earth occur more often than expected. D．It’s still too early to say whether such a collision might occur. 3．We can conclude from the passage that _________. A．while pushing asteroids off course nuclear weapons would destroy the world B．asteroids racing across the night sky are likely to hit Earth in the near future C．the worry about asteroids can be left to future generations since it is unlikely to happen in our lifetime D．workable solutions still have to be found to prevent a collision of asteroids with Earth 4．Which of the following best describes the author’s tone in this passage? A．Optimistic. B．Critical (批评的). C．Objective (客观的). D．Arbitrary (武断的). （2025·江苏盐城·一模）Li Yuexian, a college student, is having an interview with Shen Yizheng, who has been a planning editor (策划编辑) at a book publishing company in Beijing for years.

Now, a fossil (化石) of a young Gorgosaurus is helping scientists understand the diet of this type of dinosaurs. It’s the first skeleton (骨骼) of this dinosaur type ever found with stomach contents (胃内容物) still inside, said The New York Times. When being looked at in a museum in 2010, the fossil of the young Gorgosaurus was found to have toe bones (脚趾骨) that belonged to another type of dinosaur. They were the toes of two parrot-like dinosaurs called caenagnathids (近颌龙科). The young Gorgosaurus had eaten their legs which were rich in protein (蛋白质). “This fossil provides the first direct evidence (证据) that young Gorgosaurus was still feeding on smaller animals compared to the adult Gorgosaurus, ” said scientist Darla Zelenitsky at the University, of Calgary, Canada. She shared her findings in a new study. Gorgosaurus may not have been actively (积极地) feeding its young, and the young had to take care of themselves, Thomas Cullen from Auburn University, in the US, told National Geographic. The young Gorgosaurus was about 13 percent of an adult Gorgosaurus in size. Both the hunter and its prey (猎物) were less than one year old. Little dinosaurs were easy prey for young Gorgosaurus and T. rex to practice their hunting skills. When Gorgosaurus and T. rex grew up, they would eat larger dinosaurs for food. In places in Asia and other continents (大陆) where large T. rex lived, medium-sized dinosaurs could also be found. However, in North America, where Gorgosaurus and T. rex lived, medium-sized dinosaurs were generally absent. The reason behind this is that the medium-sized dinosaurs were on the plate of Gorgosaurus and T. rex in North America. “How Gorgosaurus and T. rex grew up in North America seems unique, ”wrote National Geographic. 1．From the fossil, we can learn that the Gorgosaurus ________.
