(2024·湖南长沙·中考真题)
The Four Seasons, written by the Italian musician Antonio Vivaldi, was first played about 300 years ago. Since then, it has enjoyed worldwide popularity.
The great musical work includes four parts: “Spring”, “Summer”, “Autumn” and ‘‘Winter”. Each part brings to mind the season it is meant to describe. “Summer”, for example, begins slowly. Listeners can easily picture a hot, lazy summer day when nobody wants to move. When you listen to “Autumn”, a harvest (收获) celebration will readily come to mind.
But now, Hache Costa, a music director in Spain, has decided to give the old work a fresh feel. He says the climate (气候) today is very different from what it was in the 1700s. The Four Seasons would be “a lot dirtier” if it were written now.
Costa has “updated” the musical work to make it match the realities of the modern world. The ‘“updated” musical work has been played in Madrid, Spain. The performance takes place in front of a screen. As the musicians play, a video shows the effects (影响) of climate change, such as forest fires and unusually dry weather.
After enjoying it, people find the new “Summer” now sounds noisier and more powerful. Because of global warming (全球变暖), the other three seasons have become shorter. Costa says he expects people to feel “really sad” after listening to the new Four Seasons.
“I really want more people to become truly aware of (意识到) what is happening to our planet,” says Costa. “And I believe Vivaldi would not be angry with my changes.”
3.What do we know about The Four Seasons?
A.It is still unpopular now.
B.It was written by Hache Costa.
C.It was first played about 300 years ago.
4.What will come to mind when we listen to the old “Autumn” according to the passage?
A.Forest fires and dry weather. B.A harvest celebration. C.A hot lazy day.
5.Which is close to the underlined word “updated” in meaning in Paragraph 4?

(2024·湖南长沙·中考真题)
What should you do when you can’t find the time to do a long workout? Have you heard of exercise snacks (零食式锻炼)?
Exercise snacks are a popular and inventive new way for people to stay fit. Instead of spending hours on the playground, people break that “large meal” into exercise “snacks”. These exercises can last anywhere from 20 seconds to two minutes. Then you can have a rest for 30 minutes to four hours before another snack.
It is reported that exercise snacks can be as useful as traditional exercise methods. Just three exercise snacks a day can benefit (使受益) your physical health. Besides that, there are lots of other benefits. Your concentration (专注力) and creativity get better, and you can become more productive. Also, “snacking” throughout the day stops you from sitting too long.
There are so many acceptable exercise snacks, like doing sit-ups, jumping rope or running up and down some stairs (楼梯). But for those who don’t know where to start, here are some helpful exercise choices:
Exercises such as lifting weights will satisfy the needs. Since most people don’t keep weights at their offices, lift full water bottles.
Squats (深蹲) — moving your body as if to sit down while keeping your back straight. Five to ten of these should make a good snack.
For those who don’t like traditional exercises, simply turn up the music. Pick a lively song and start dancing. It’ll make for a fun workout.
What are you waiting for? Let’s get moving. Your body will thank you for it!
7.How long can an exercise snack last according to the passage?
A.20 seconds to two minutes. B.30 minutes to four hours. C.Five to ten minutes.
8.Which is an acceptable exercise snack mentioned in the passage?
A.Doing math exercises. B.Eating snacks. C.Doing sit-ups.
9.What is the writer’s attitude (态度) to exercise snacks?
A.Doubtful. B.Unclear. C.Supportive.
10.What is the main purpose of the passage?
A.To change traditional eating habits.
B.To introduce an inventive new way to stay fit.
C.To encourage people to do long-time outdoor exercise.

(2024·湖南·中考真题)Headphones are helpful. Many kids use them. But headphones can be harmful, too. They can cause hearing loss if the volume (音量) is too loud. Studies show that one out of every ten kids in the United States has some hearing loss. The cause is loud noise.
Do you know how we hear? There are cells (细胞) inside the ears that help us hear. We can’t see them with our eyes. “We call them hair cells,” Jackie Clark said. “They look like hairs standing up.” Clark is a scientist at the University of Texas. She studies noises and ears. Sound cannot be seen, but it can make the hair cells move back and forward. Think of the wind in the leaves.
Loud noises can damage (损伤) these cells. And once the cells are damaged, they don’t grow back. Sometimes there’s tinnitus. “It’s like someone is playing a note on the flute (长笛) for a long time,” Clark says. It shows we’re losing hearing. Tinnitus is not only harmful to our ears, also it can make us feel uneasy. That’s why it’s necessary to protect our ears.
How can we protect our ears? We’d better keep the volume low when we use our headphones. We should be able to hear sounds around us. And other people shouldn’t hear noise from our headphones. “If I can hear what you’re listening to when you’re wearing your headphones,” Clark says, “it’s too loud.” To protect our ears, keep our headphones at about half volume.
14.What can we know about hair cells?
A.They help us hear.
B.They look like hairs lying down.
C.They can be seen clearly with our eyes.
15.What does the underlined word “tinnitus” mean in Paragraph 3?
A.A musical voice.
B.A kind of instrument.
C.Ringing in ears.
16.What’s the main purpose of the last paragraph?
A.To give advice.
B.To show problems.
C.To explain reasons.
17.What’s the main idea of the passage?
A.Before listening to music, choose a good headphone.
B.When using a headphone, keep the volume low.
C.After using a headphone, check your ears.
【答案】14.A 15.C 16.A 17.B
【导语】本文主要介绍了耳机很有用,但是它也会导致听力丧失,所以文章建议我们要合理使用耳机。
14.细节理解题。根据“There are cells (细胞) inside the ears that help us hear. We can’t see them with our eyes. ‘We call them hair cells,’ Jackie Clark said.”可知,毛细胞帮助我们听到声音。故选A。
15.词义猜测题。根据“‘It’s like someone is playing a note on the flute (长笛) for a long time,’ Clark says.”可知,这就像有人在笛子上很长时间吹一个音符,即耳朵有时有耳鸣现象。故推测划线单词应该是“耳鸣”的意思。故选C。
16.推理判断题。根据“How can we protect our ears? We’d better keep the value volume low when we use our headphones.”可知,此段主要给出了使用耳机的建议。故选A。
17.主旨大意题。通读全文,根据“How can we protect our ears? We’d better keep the value volume low when we use our headphones.”可知,本文主要讲了为了保护我们的耳朵,使用耳机时最好把音量调小。故选B。

(2025·湖南娄底·模拟预测)
Were you surprised by the robots performing the Yangko dance at this year’s Spring Festival Gala? Wait for it! Another robot can even do a front flip (前空翻). These days, robots that look like humans seem to be able to do almost anything. But what makes them so smart?
The secret lies in AI. Since 2022, big progress in AI has made robots much better. Companies are creating amazing technologies like large language models (LLMs).
Peter Chen from Covariant said that LLMs, like the ones used in ChatGPT, can help improve robots. LLMs learn from lots of data (数据) and use that knowledge to help robots think. Visual AI helps robots understand what they see in photos and videos. This mix of LLMs and visual AI allows robots to know how things are connected. This makes robots better at moving and doing tasks.
But being smart isn’t enough—robots also need to move well. In the past, even simple tasks like picking up an apple were hard for robots. Now, new technology helps them a lot. Using light materials makes robots strong and able to move freely. Sensors let them see, hear, and feel their environment, while engines help them move easily.
Now, human-like robots are becoming more and more popular. The market for these robots could be worth 276.9 billion yuan by 2035.
21.What has greatly improved robots since 2022?
A.New dancing skill. B.Progress in AI. C.Better appearance.
22.What can help robots understand photos and videos according to the text?
A.ChatGPT. B.LLMs. C.Visual AI
23.What does the underlined word “sensors” mean?
A.Parts to help robots think.
B.Parts to help robots see, hear, and feel.
C.Parts to make robots move easily.
24.What can we learn from the passage about human like robots?
A.There is a growing market for them.
B.They will finally replace human workers.
C.Heavy materials would make them strong.
【答案】21.B 22.C 23.B 24.A

(2025·湖南株洲·一模)In recent years, China has made a big health plan called “Weight Management Year.” It’s a three-year project organized by the National Health Commission (国家卫生健康委员会). Being fit helps you keep your body at a healthy weight, helps stop some sicknesses, makes you feel better in your mind, gives you more energy, and helps you sleep better. Here are some different parts of physical fitness.
Muscle (肌肉) power is how much force a muscle can give. Some kinds of exercise can make your muscles stronger. When your muscles are stronger, you can do everyday things more easily. Some activities and exercises that will build stronger muscles are doing push-ups, running, yoga, and bike riding.
Muscle endurance is different from muscle power. Muscle endurance is how many times or how long a muscle can give a force. Muscle endurance is very important if you play a sport or game that lasts for a long time. Sports such as football, tennis, and cross-country running will help make it better.
Heart health shows how well your heart pumps (输送) blood around the body.When you do activities or exercise that make your heart pump faster, it gets better at doing its job. Anything that makes your heart beat faster and gets you breathing faster will help your heart get better. So go ahead and swim, play basketball, run, skate, or jump rope. Your heart will thank you.

(2025·湖南永州·一模)Are you often angry? What will you do when you’re very angry? Some people may choose to let out their anger by shouting or doing physical activities like running. However, a recent study from Ohio State University found that calming activities are more effective in reducing anger.
The study analyzed (分析) 154 other research papers including over 10,000 people of different ages and backgrounds. It found that some activities like running or boxing, didn’t really help to reduce anger. In fact, some of these activities can exacerbate (加剧) anger by increasing physical responses (反应). For example, they make people’s hearts beat faster. If your heart can’t slow down, your anger will not be let out easily.
On the other hand, some activities that can reduce your physical responses, such as deep breathing, meditation (冥想) and yoga, are more successful in calming anger. These activities make the heart beat slower, helping people to dominate their feelings successfully.
Interestingly, the study also found that while jogging was likely to increase anger, other heart rate increasing activities reduce anger. This suggests that fun and playful activities can help reduce negative feelings. So, if you want to make yourself feel better, some playful activities would be a good choice.
In short, if you’re feeling angry, consider taking a few deep breaths or taking up a fun sport instead of shouting or running. These calming activities may help you reduce your anger.
29.What do some people do to let out their anger according to Paragraph 1?
A.Keep quiet. B.Do physical activities. C.Write down some words.
30.What does the underlined word “dominate” mean in Paragraph 3?
A.Hide. B.Express. C.Control.
31.Which is the structure (结构) of this passage? (①= Paragraph 1...)
A. B. C.
32.Which can be the best title for the passage?
A.Ways to Reduce Anger. B.Choice of Staying Cool. C.Reasons to Reduce Anger.
【答案】29.B 30.C 31.B 32.A
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了俄亥俄州立大学的一项研究成果,即不同活动对减少愤怒情绪的效果不同。

(2025·湖南长沙·一模)DeepSeek, a young Chinese AI company founded in 2023, has quickly risen to become a global leader in artificial intelligence (AI). With only two years of development, its technology has surprised the world by being faster, more efficient (有效率的), and cheaper than many well-known competitors. The company’s founder, Mr. Liang Wenfeng, started his career in financial (金融的) technology. Later, he turned to AI and gathered a team of about 140 talented young people. Most of them graduated from top universities in China.
DeepSeek teaches us important lessons about the future of AI. First, the company believes AI should belong to the whole world, not just one country. It should be used for cooperation, not for competition. Second, DeepSeek helps to close the “AI gap” between countries, companies and even individuals (个体) by using an open-source model (开源模式). It shares its technology freely with the world. Third, by lowering costs, DeepSeek makes AI affordable for more people. So the benefits of AI can reach everyone, not just a few.
Another key idea from DeepSeek is that AI should focus on working with humans rather than replacing them. The team believes creativity and human-AI cooperation are more important than simply building faster machines. For example, their projects aim to help doctors diagnose (诊断) diseases or help teachers create personalized lessons—always keeping humans in control.
AI is developing so fast that countries must work together to make sure it remains safe and helpful. If China, the US, and others compete instead of working together, AI could become uncontrollable and even dangerous. The rise of DeepSeek is “DeepSeek moment”—a chance for the world to unite, share knowledge and make AI a force for global use.
33.Compared with other AI companies, the technology of DeepSeek ________.
A.costs more B.works faster C.is developed by more experts
34.What does the underlined word “cooperation” mean in Paragraph 2?
A.independence B.victory C.teamwork

36.最佳标题题。文章主要介绍了DeepSeek的技术优势、全球合作理念以及对AI未来的看法,强调其在AI领域的创新和全球影响力。“DeepSeek Opens a New AI Age”符合标题要求。故选A。
(2024·湖南长沙·二模)Since 2013, the Clean Your Plate Campaign has been started for 10 years. Although some achievements have been made, there are still some problems. We must not relax and implement this action to the end.
Nowadays, in China, more and more people are ordering their meals online. The number of online food orderers grew to 535 million as of June, which is a lot more than before. But there’s a problem—food waste is becoming a big issue. A study found that every time someone orders food, they waste about 57.5 grams on average.
Why is this happening? Well, sometimes when we order food, we get excited by discounts and end up buying more than we need. This can mean we leave food uneaten. To stop this, China’s government has told food delivery websites to make sure restaurants offer smaller meal sizes and to change how discounts work.
To help with this, these websites are using smart ideas like giving out e-badges to restaurants that offer smaller meals. They also remind customers not to waste food when they pay online.
And it’s not just the websites doing their part; restaurants are too! Some restaurant workers, like Li in Beijing, say that people can now choose how big they want their meal to be when they order. Another restaurant owner, Mao, offers smaller rice portions, which saves customers money and cuts down on waste. Mao’s small portions have become popular, selling about 500 a month.
Leftover food isn’t being thrown away either. Some smart restaurant owners are making “surprise boxes” out of food that wasn’t used. People can buy these boxes without knowing exactly what’s inside, which is fun and helps reduce waste.
China knows food waste is a big deal, so in 2013 they started the “Clear Your Plate” campaign, and in 2021, they made a law to prevent food waste. All these efforts are there to make sure food isn’t wasted and everyone does their part to help!
37.Why are people wasting food when they order online?
A.Because they can’t finish large meal sizes.
B.Due to excitement from discounts and ordering more than needed.
C.Restaurants are giving more food than necessary.
38.What did China’s government insist food delivery websites do?
A.Make restaurants offer smaller meal sizes and adjust discounts.
B.Prevent people from ordering online.
C.Give e-badges to those who order large meals.
39.How are smart restaurant owners helping to reduce food waste?
A.By offering bigger portions.
B.By throwing away uneaten food.
C.By creating “surprise boxes” from unused food.
40.What is the main idea of this article?
A.Online food ordering is increasing in China, but it leads to food waste, prompting action from the government, websites, and restaurants.
B.Food delivery websites in China are giving out e-badges to promote large meal sizes.
C.The Chinese government has banned online food delivery services to prevent food waste.

(3)自我测评
(A)There are over 200 kinds of squirrels (松鼠) in the world, including kinds of tree, ground, and flying squirrels. You may have seen the eastern gray squirrels in parks, your backyard or a forest in the eastern half of the United States.
These squirrels eat seeds (种子) and flowers of trees. They play an important role in the environment because they help spread seeds. They hide their food in many places to save it for the winter. But sometimes they forget where it is, and the food like seeds will grow into new plants the next spring.
Eastern gray squirrels have a great sense of smell. They use it to find hidden food and learn about other squirrels. They talk to each other by making sounds and body movements, such as moving their tails. When danger is nearby, they will sound warning calls to let others know.
Mother eastern gray squirrels may start having babies when they’re as young as five and a half months old. They can have babies twice a year, usually two to four babies at a time. They build nests in trees or live in tree holes to keep their babies safe. Newborn eastern gray squirrels don’t have fur (皮毛) and are not able to see. They often weigh as little as half an ounce. They leave the nest when they’re around ten to twelve weeks old. They become fully grown when they’re nine months old.

(B)Have you ever wished you could talk to the “you” from the future? Well, now there’s a new AI project called Future You that’s trying to make that happen.
First, Future You uses AI to ask you questions about who you are, what your life is like now, and what you want to do in the future. Then it collects all the information and creates a picture of you when you’re 60 years old. So you can ask this “future you” questions and get advice for what’s to come.
Future You can even show you a picture of what you might look like at 60. A scientist said, “The system makes the pretend version (虚拟版本) really seem like the real deal. Future You is a lot more detailed (详细的) than just thinking about your future self in your head.”
The website of Future You says it’s meant to help you think more about the long term by making you feel more connected to your future self. If you feel more tied to that future you, you’re more likely to make good choices for your future, like with money, school, or your health. Scientists tested Future You on 344 people. The ones who talked to Future You for 10 to 30 minutes felt less worried and more motivated about the unknown future.
But Future You isn’t perfect. A professor said, “We don’t know if people actually did anything different or changed how they act because they talked to their future self.” Also, the AI can only show one possible future, not different ones. In the end, as an article in Forbes (《福布斯》) said, “It’s all just pretend.” So we can’t believe everything Future You says as if it’s completely true.
49.What does Future You do first?
A.It shows users a picture of their future.
B.It collects users’ information and future plans.
C.It asks users questions about their past experiences.
50.How does the scientist like Future You in Paragraph 3?
A.Realistic. B.Boring. C.Questionable.
51.What does the underlined word “motivated” mean in Paragraph 4?
A.困惑的 B.焦虑的 C.有动力的

C.Future You: A New Way to See the Future
【答案】49.B 50.A 51.C 52.C
【导语】本文介绍了名为Future You的新AI项目,它能通过提问收集用户信息,生成用户60岁时的样子,用户可向“未来的自己”提问获取建议。该项目有一定效果,但也存在不完美之处,如无法确定是否能改变人们行为,且只能展示一种未来可能。
49.细节理解题。根据“First, Future You uses AI to ask you questions about who you are, what your life is like now, and what you want to do in the future. Then it collects all the information...”可知,Future You首先用人工智能询问用户相关问题并收集信息,B选项“它收集用户的信息和未来计划”正确。故选B。

If you feel more tied to that future you, you’re more likely to make good choices for your future, like with money, school, or your health.”可知,前文提到与“未来的自己”交流能让人对未来感觉不那么担忧,可推测motivated意思是 “有动力的”,即对未知的未来更有动力。故选C。
52.最佳标题题。通读原文可知,文章主要围绕Future You这个AI项目展开,介绍其功能、效果及不足,C选项“Future You:一种展望未来的新方式”能准确概括文章内容。故选C。
(C)Nowadays in many Chinese cities, schools have made class breaks longer. They used to be 10 minutes, but now they are 15 minutes. This change is to help students and teachers go outside and play more.
Before, the short breaks didn’t give students much time to play outside, especially if they were in big buildings with many floors. Sometimes, schools didn’t let students leave their rooms during breaks because they were worried about safety.
Now, with longer class breaks, schools want to make sure students can play and exercise for at least 30 minutes every day. Cities like Beijing, Tianjin, and Qingdao have started doing this. In Beijing, they made the breaks longer by taking time from the longer breaks in the middle of the day. This didn’t change when students start and finish school.
In Wuxi, a city in Jiangsu Province, schools have 15-minute breaks and make sure students have one gym class each day. In order to help students play outside and talk with their friends, schools ask students to exercise for at least 100 minutes every day. The people in charge of schools there said they want to give the break time back to the students.
In Qingdao, a school started playing different games outside, like jump rope and hula hoop (呼啦圈), and also had puzzles to play inside during the longer breaks. They organize the students by the floor they are on so everyone can play outside. A check in May showed that more students in Qingdao are getting good scores on their health tests.
53.In which places have students started having class breaks for at least 30 minutes at school?
A.Beijing and Qingdao. B.Tianjin and Wuxi. C.Wu xi and Qingdao.
54.How long are the class breaks in the schools in Wuxi, Jiangsu Province?
A.10 minutes. B.15 minutes. C.30 minutes.
55.Which is not the reason about schools these days have made class breaks longer in China?
A.To make students go outside and play more.
B.To make students become healthier.
C.To make students study harder.
56.What is the article mainly about?

The Four Seasons, written by the Italian musician Antonio Vivaldi, was first played about 300 years ago. Since then, it has enjoyed worldwide popularity.
The great musical work includes four parts: “Spring”, “Summer”, “Autumn” and ‘‘Winter”. Each part brings to mind the season it is meant to describe. “Summer”, for example, begins slowly. Listeners can easily picture a hot, lazy summer day when nobody wants to move. When you listen to “Autumn”, a harvest (收获) celebration will readily come to mind.
But now, Hache Costa, a music director in Spain, has decided to give the old work a fresh feel. He says the climate (气候) today is very different from what it was in the 1700s. The Four Seasons would be “a lot dirtier” if it were written now.
Costa has “updated” the musical work to make it match the realities of the modern world. The ‘“updated” musical work has been played in Madrid, Spain. The performance takes place in front of a screen. As the musicians play, a video shows the effects (影响) of climate change, such as forest fires and unusually dry weather.
After enjoying it, people find the new “Summer” now sounds noisier and more powerful. Because of global warming (全球变暖), the other three seasons have become shorter. Costa says he expects people to feel “really sad” after listening to the new Four Seasons.
“I really want more people to become truly aware of (意识到) what is happening to our planet,” says Costa. “And I believe Vivaldi would not be angry with my changes.”
3.What do we know about The Four Seasons?
A.It is still unpopular now.
B.It was written by Hache Costa.
C.It was first played about 300 years ago.
4.What will come to mind when we listen to the old “Autumn” according to the passage?
A.Forest fires and dry weather. B.A harvest celebration. C.A hot lazy day.
5.Which is close to the underlined word “updated” in meaning in Paragraph 4?
A.提上日程 B.追根溯源 C.赋予新意
6.Why did Hache Costa give the old work a fresh feel?
A.To call on more people to love music.
B.To raise public awareness of climate change.
C.To present the story of Antonio Vivaldi’s colorful life.
(2024·湖南长沙·中考真题)
What should you do when you can’t find the time to do a long workout? Have you heard of exercise snacks (零食式锻炼)?
Exercise snacks are a popular and inventive new way for people to stay fit. Instead of spending hours on the playground, people break that “large meal” into exercise “snacks”. These exercises can last anywhere from 20 seconds to two minutes. Then you can have a rest for 30 minutes to four hours before another snack.
It is reported that exercise snacks can be as useful as traditional exercise methods. Just three exercise snacks a day can benefit (使受益) your physical health. Besides that, there are lots of other benefits. Your concentration (专注力) and creativity get better, and you can become more productive. Also, “snacking” throughout the day stops you from sitting too long.
There are so many acceptable exercise snacks, like doing sit-ups, jumping rope or running up and down some stairs (楼梯). But for those who don’t know where to start, here are some helpful exercise choices:
Exercises such as lifting weights will satisfy the needs. Since most people don’t keep weights at their offices, lift full water bottles.
Squats (深蹲) — moving your body as if to sit down while keeping your back straight. Five to ten of these should make a good snack.
For those who don’t like traditional exercises, simply turn up the music. Pick a lively song and start dancing. It’ll make for a fun workout.
What are you waiting for? Let’s get moving. Your body will thank you for it!
7.How long can an exercise snack last according to the passage?
A.20 seconds to two minutes. B.30 minutes to four hours. C.Five to ten minutes.
8.Which is an acceptable exercise snack mentioned in the passage?
A.Doing math exercises. B.Eating snacks. C.Doing sit-ups.
9.What is the writer’s attitude (态度) to exercise snacks?
A.Doubtful. B.Unclear. C.Supportive.
10.What is the main purpose of the passage?
A.To change traditional eating habits.
B.To introduce an inventive new way to stay fit.
C.To encourage people to do long-time outdoor exercise.

(2024·湖南·中考真题)Headphones are helpful. Many kids use them. But headphones can be harmful, too. They can cause hearing loss if the volume (音量) is too loud. Studies show that one out of every ten kids in the United States has some hearing loss. The cause is loud noise.
Do you know how we hear? There are cells (细胞) inside the ears that help us hear. We can’t see them with our eyes. “We call them hair cells,” Jackie Clark said. “They look like hairs standing up.” Clark is a scientist at the University of Texas. She studies noises and ears. Sound cannot be seen, but it can make the hair cells move back and forward. Think of the wind in the leaves.
Loud noises can damage (损伤) these cells. And once the cells are damaged, they don’t grow back. Sometimes there’s tinnitus. “It’s like someone is playing a note on the flute (长笛) for a long time,” Clark says. It shows we’re losing hearing. Tinnitus is not only harmful to our ears, also it can make us feel uneasy. That’s why it’s necessary to protect our ears.
How can we protect our ears? We’d better keep the volume low when we use our headphones. We should be able to hear sounds around us. And other people shouldn’t hear noise from our headphones. “If I can hear what you’re listening to when you’re wearing your headphones,” Clark says, “it’s too loud.” To protect our ears, keep our headphones at about half volume.
14.What can we know about hair cells?
A.They help us hear.
B.They look like hairs lying down.
C.They can be seen clearly with our eyes.

Were you surprised by the robots performing the Yangko dance at this year’s Spring Festival Gala? Wait for it! Another robot can even do a front flip (前空翻). These days, robots that look like humans seem to be able to do almost anything. But what makes them so smart?
The secret lies in AI. Since 2022, big progress in AI has made robots much better. Companies are creating amazing technologies like large language models (LLMs).
Peter Chen from Covariant said that LLMs, like the ones used in ChatGPT, can help improve robots. LLMs learn from lots of data (数据) and use that knowledge to help robots think. Visual AI helps robots understand what they see in photos and videos. This mix of LLMs and visual AI allows robots to know how things are connected. This makes robots better at moving and doing tasks.
But being smart isn’t enough—robots also need to move well. In the past, even simple tasks like picking up an apple were hard for robots. Now, new technology helps them a lot. Using light materials makes robots strong and able to move freely. Sensors let them see, hear, and feel their environment, while engines help them move easily.
Now, human-like robots are becoming more and more popular. The market for these robots could be worth 276.9 billion yuan by 2035.
21.What has greatly improved robots since 2022?
A.New dancing skill. B.Progress in AI. C.Better appearance.
22.What can help robots understand photos and videos according to the text?
A.ChatGPT. B.LLMs. C.Visual AI
23.What does the underlined word “sensors” mean?
A.Parts to help robots think.
B.Parts to help robots see, hear, and feel.
C.Parts to make robots move easily.
24.What can we learn from the passage about human like robots?
A.There is a growing market for them.
B.They will finally replace human workers.
C.Heavy materials would make them strong.
(2025·湖南株洲·一模)In recent years, China has made a big health plan called “Weight Management Year.” It’s a three-year project organized by the National Health Commission (国家卫生健康委员会). Being fit helps you keep your body at a healthy weight, helps stop some sicknesses, makes you feel better in your mind, gives you more energy, and helps you sleep better. Here are some different parts of physical fitness.
Muscle (肌肉) power is how much force a muscle can give. Some kinds of exercise can make your muscles stronger. When your muscles are stronger, you can do everyday things more easily. Some activities and exercises that will build stronger muscles are doing push-ups, running, yoga, and bike riding.
Muscle endurance is different from muscle power. Muscle endurance is how many times or how long a muscle can give a force. Muscle endurance is very important if you play a sport or game that lasts for a long time. Sports such as football, tennis, and cross-country running will help make it better.
Heart health shows how well your heart pumps (输送) blood around the body.When you do activities or exercise that make your heart pump faster, it gets better at doing its job. Anything that makes your heart beat faster and gets you breathing faster will help your heart get better. So go ahead and swim, play basketball, run, skate, or jump rope. Your heart will thank you.
25.How many parts of physical fitness are mentioned in the passage?
A.3. B.4. C.5.
26.What does the underlined word “endurance” mean in paragraph 3?
A.A force how long muscle can give.
B.A force how much muscle can give.
C.A force how freely your arms and legs move.
27.What’s the main purpose of the last paragraph?
A.To show heart health problems.
B.To explain how the heart works.
C.To encourage activities for heart health.
28.What can be the best title of the passage?
A.Build up the body. B.Manage weight well. C.Improve the muscles.
(2025·湖南永州·一模)Are you often angry? What will you do when you’re very angry? Some people may choose to let out their anger by shouting or doing physical activities like running. However, a recent study from Ohio State University found that calming activities are more effective in reducing anger.
The study analyzed (分析) 154 other research papers including over 10,000 people of different ages and backgrounds. It found that some activities like running or boxing, didn’t really help to reduce anger. In fact, some of these activities can exacerbate (加剧) anger by increasing physical responses (反应). For example, they make people’s hearts beat faster. If your heart can’t slow down, your anger will not be let out easily.
On the other hand, some activities that can reduce your physical responses, such as deep breathing, meditation (冥想) and yoga, are more successful in calming anger. These activities make the heart beat slower, helping people to dominate their feelings successfully.
Interestingly, the study also found that while jogging was likely to increase anger, other heart rate increasing activities reduce anger. This suggests that fun and playful activities can help reduce negative feelings. So, if you want to make yourself feel better, some playful activities would be a good choice.
In short, if you’re feeling angry, consider taking a few deep breaths or taking up a fun sport instead of shouting or running. These calming activities may help you reduce your anger.
29.What do some people do to let out their anger according to Paragraph 1?
A.Keep quiet. B.Do physical activities. C.Write down some words.
30.What does the underlined word “dominate” mean in Paragraph 3?
A.Hide. B.Express. C.Control.
31.Which is the structure (结构) of this passage? (①= Paragraph 1...)
A. B. C.
32.Which can be the best title for the passage?
A.Ways to Reduce Anger. B.Choice of Staying Cool. C.Reasons to Reduce Anger.
(2025·湖南长沙·一模)DeepSeek, a young Chinese AI company founded in 2023, has quickly risen to become a global leader in artificial intelligence (AI). With only two years of development, its technology has surprised the world by being faster, more efficient (有效率的), and cheaper than many well-known competitors. The company’s founder, Mr. Liang Wenfeng, started his career in financial (金融的) technology. Later, he turned to AI and gathered a team of about 140 talented young people. Most of them graduated from top universities in China.
DeepSeek teaches us important lessons about the future of AI. First, the company believes AI should belong to the whole world, not just one country. It should be used for cooperation, not for competition. Second, DeepSeek helps to close the “AI gap” between countries, companies and even individuals (个体) by using an open-source model (开源模式). It shares its technology freely with the world. Third, by lowering costs, DeepSeek makes AI affordable for more people. So the benefits of AI can reach everyone, not just a few.
Another key idea from DeepSeek is that AI should focus on working with humans rather than replacing them. The team believes creativity and human-AI cooperation are more important than simply building faster machines. For example, their projects aim to help doctors diagnose (诊断) diseases or help teachers create personalized lessons—always keeping humans in control.
AI is developing so fast that countries must work together to make sure it remains safe and helpful. If China, the US, and others compete instead of working together, AI could become uncontrollable and even dangerous. The rise of DeepSeek is “DeepSeek moment”—a chance for the world to unite, share knowledge and make AI a force for global use.
33.Compared with other AI companies, the technology of DeepSeek ________.
A.costs more B.works faster C.is developed by more experts
34.What does the underlined word “cooperation” mean in Paragraph 2?
A.independence B.victory C.teamwork
35.Which statement about the relationship between AI and humans is TRUE?
A.AI development aims to speed up human’s lives.
B.AI should act as a supportive tool for humans.
C.AI is designed to replace humans in teaching field.
36.Which can be the best title for this passage?
A.DeepSeek Opens a New AI Age
B.Why DeepSeek is Controlled by One Country
C.The History of A New AI Company: DeepSeek
(2024·湖南长沙·二模)Since 2013, the Clean Your Plate Campaign has been started for 10 years. Although some achievements have been made, there are still some problems. We must not relax and implement this action to the end.
Nowadays, in China, more and more people are ordering their meals online. The number of online food orderers grew to 535 million as of June, which is a lot more than before. But there’s a problem—food waste is becoming a big issue. A study found that every time someone orders food, they waste about 57.5 grams on average.
Why is this happening? Well, sometimes when we order food, we get excited by discounts and end up buying more than we need. This can mean we leave food uneaten. To stop this, China’s government has told food delivery websites to make sure restaurants offer smaller meal sizes and to change how discounts work.
To help with this, these websites are using smart ideas like giving out e-badges to restaurants that offer smaller meals. They also remind customers not to waste food when they pay online.
And it’s not just the websites doing their part; restaurants are too! Some restaurant workers, like Li in Beijing, say that people can now choose how big they want their meal to be when they order. Another restaurant owner, Mao, offers smaller rice portions, which saves customers money and cuts down on waste. Mao’s small portions have become popular, selling about 500 a month.
Leftover food isn’t being thrown away either. Some smart restaurant owners are making “surprise boxes” out of food that wasn’t used. People can buy these boxes without knowing exactly what’s inside, which is fun and helps reduce waste.
China knows food waste is a big deal, so in 2013 they started the “Clear Your Plate” campaign, and in 2021, they made a law to prevent food waste. All these efforts are there to make sure food isn’t wasted and everyone does their part to help!
37.Why are people wasting food when they order online?
A.Because they can’t finish large meal sizes.
B.Due to excitement from discounts and ordering more than needed.
C.Restaurants are giving more food than necessary.
38.What did China’s government insist food delivery websites do?

(A)There are over 200 kinds of squirrels (松鼠) in the world, including kinds of tree, ground, and flying squirrels. You may have seen the eastern gray squirrels in parks, your backyard or a forest in the eastern half of the United States.
These squirrels eat seeds (种子) and flowers of trees. They play an important role in the environment because they help spread seeds. They hide their food in many places to save it for the winter. But sometimes they forget where it is, and the food like seeds will grow into new plants the next spring.
Eastern gray squirrels have a great sense of smell. They use it to find hidden food and learn about other squirrels. They talk to each other by making sounds and body movements, such as moving their tails. When danger is nearby, they will sound warning calls to let others know.
Mother eastern gray squirrels may start having babies when they’re as young as five and a half months old. They can have babies twice a year, usually two to four babies at a time. They build nests in trees or live in tree holes to keep their babies safe. Newborn eastern gray squirrels don’t have fur (皮毛) and are not able to see. They often weigh as little as half an ounce. They leave the nest when they’re around ten to twelve weeks old. They become fully grown when they’re nine months old.

(B)Have you ever wished you could talk to the “you” from the future? Well, now there’s a new AI project called Future You that’s trying to make that happen.
First, Future You uses AI to ask you questions about who you are, what your life is like now, and what you want to do in the future. Then it collects all the information and creates a picture of you when you’re 60 years old. So you can ask this “future you” questions and get advice for what’s to come.
Future You can even show you a picture of what you might look like at 60. A scientist said, “The system makes the pretend version (虚拟版本) really seem like the real deal. Future You is a lot more detailed (详细的) than just thinking about your future self in your head.”
The website of Future You says it’s meant to help you think more about the long term by making you feel more connected to your future self. If you feel more tied to that future you, you’re more likely to make good choices for your future, like with money, school, or your health. Scientists tested Future You on 344 people. The ones who talked to Future You for 10 to 30 minutes felt less worried and more motivated about the unknown future.
But Future You isn’t perfect. A professor said, “We don’t know if people actually did anything different or changed how they act because they talked to their future self.” Also, the AI can only show one possible future, not different ones. In the end, as an article in Forbes (《福布斯》) said, “It’s all just pretend.” So we can’t believe everything Future You says as if it’s completely true.

(C)Nowadays in many Chinese cities, schools have made class breaks longer. They used to be 10 minutes, but now they are 15 minutes. This change is to help students and teachers go outside and play more.
Before, the short breaks didn’t give students much time to play outside, especially if they were in big buildings with many floors. Sometimes, schools didn’t let students leave their rooms during breaks because they were worried about safety.
Now, with longer class breaks, schools want to make sure students can play and exercise for at least 30 minutes every day. Cities like Beijing, Tianjin, and Qingdao have started doing this. In Beijing, they made the breaks longer by taking time from the longer breaks in the middle of the day. This didn’t change when students start and finish school.
In Wuxi, a city in Jiangsu Province, schools have 15-minute breaks and make sure students have one gym class each day. In order to help students play outside and talk with their friends, schools ask students to exercise for at least 100 minutes every day. The people in charge of schools there said they want to give the break time back to the students.
In Qingdao, a school started playing different games outside, like jump rope and hula hoop (呼啦圈), and also had puzzles to play inside during the longer breaks. They organize the students by the floor they are on so everyone can play outside. A check in May showed that more students in Qingdao are getting good scores on their health tests.

(D)A live-streaming app that monitors (监视) students in classrooms in some middle schools has raised a lot of online discussion. It was reported that any user of the app Shuidi could see inside classrooms. Some parents have praised the app for giving them the chance to monitor their children, while others worry about privacy problems. Do you think the app is a good idea?
Zhang Xiaoru:
I strongly support this app. Nowadays, children play an important role in the whole family, and parents always want to care for their children, wherever they are. This app helps parents see what their children are doing in class. It’s also a good way to make students behave themselves in school.
Du Yina:
I’m a supporter of this app if parents get their children’s permission first. The app could help parents focus on children’s bad habits. It could also be used as a tool to prevent bullying (霸凌). However, parents should get their permission first to protect their privacy.
Zhao Xuehan:
I think this app is a bad idea. Schools should be a pleasant and relaxing place for students to study and play. But we will feel uncomfortable if cameras are watching us all the time. We should pay attention to our privacy. Our lives shouldn’t be watched by the public.
Zhang Liliang:
Any form of privacy invasion (侵犯) shouldn’t be allowed. Although some parents want to know more about their children, they should do it in a better way. Being under the eye of strangers is too dangerous.
