T'm so sorry,”said Tara.“I thought you saw it coming.” Abby rubbed her jaw."It's OK.My mouth is going to be hurting like crazy soon anyway.” "How come?"Tara asked. "I have to get braces next week,"Abby said,"I'm so worried.I can't concentrate on anything else.” "What's stressing you out about getting braces?"Tara asked. 初二英语阶段测评第4页共10页 "EVER YTHIN(!"Abby exclaimed.

Then Abby had the world's best idea."Tlow about turning my worry list into a survey? We can ask kids with braces if they've experienced the things on my list." During breaks the next day,they did the survey,and everyone seemed excited to participate.Here's the survey result. 10 out of 10 kids agreed that it took only a few days to get used to their new look. Being made fun of wasn't a problem for anyone.Everyone agrced that it docs feel kind of strange and uncomfortable at first,but it's really not that big of a deal.The only thing that no one could agree on was the best color for rubber bands on braces.

C AI Is Cool,But Don't Get Fooled Everyone is talking about artificial intelligence (AI)these days.Have you ever dreamed of using AI to help with your studies? Well,don't just dream about it.The "AI-powered study rooms"that are popping up all over the country promise to do just that. Once you sign up,.you'll get a tablet(平板电脑)with“AI apps.”These apps will “create personalized study plans''and“tailor(传门制作)exercises based on your progress'” to help you learn more effectively.These study rooms also claim that their services are more affordable than traditional tutors ()The tablet,along with the first month of tutoring,usually costs 5,000 yuan.After that,it's about 2,000 yuan per month. Don't these promises sound attractive?But hold your horses!You'd better finish reading this article before asking your parents to pay the money. Many parents who have signed their children up for these "Al-powered study rooms" are far from satisfied.The"AI apps"don't live up to their promises.They just spot mistakes and offer repetitive exercises.On top of that,students are basically following pre-recorded lessons."These so-called AI-powered study rooms'are more of a trick than a real show of new technologies,"some parents complain. Don't feel discouraged,though.Your dream of leaming with AI is still alive.There is just no need for you to spend a lot of money on a paid"study room"to follow the fashion. From Moonshot AI to DeepSeek,many companies offer their AI chatbots for free.You can use them to help with your studies right at home.The key is to learn how to use them wisely.Asking Al to do all the exercises for you simply isn't the way to go!Instead,you could ask for clearer and more detailed explanations if you're confused about something in class.You could also share some English sentences or a composition with an AI chatbot and ask it to point out any mistakes.It could even give you some exercises to help you improve. 初二英语阶段测评第6页共10页 It will take some time and practice to become a smart AI user,but the effort will serve you better than just sitting in an "Al-powered study room". 25.“Al-powered study rooms'”promise to A.replace schoolteachers B.offer free online courses C.help students learn better D.show students how to use Al 26.Why do some parents complain about"Al-powered study rooms"? A.Because their services are too expensive. B.Because they don't really offer personalized tutoring. C.Because students are actually taught by human teachers. D.Because their"AI apps"provide only very basic lessons. 27.The writer suggests students A.study using their own tablets B.find a traditional human tutor C.study with free AI chatbots at home D.forget about their dream of studying with Al D Have you agreed to help someone when you don't really want to?Trying to please others because you're afraid to say no isn't the same thing as being kind. Doing a good deed like helping your friend with their homework or sharing a snack can make you feel happy.Studies show that kindness is good for your well-being.However, if you often agree to do things you don't want to do,or feel sorry about saying no,you could be falling into a people-pleasing trap.It's not always easy to tell when this happens but one sign (is that it's difficult to stop.Pleasing other people may feel good for a short while but the feeling doesn't last.This is why it's a good idea to set limits()on what you'll do for others.These are called "boundaries". Spending too much energy (on someone else can stop you doing things you want or need to do.Research has found that trying to please others can leave us feeling anxious and uncomfortable.We can also feel angry and frustrated with ourselves and our friends."There's nothing wrong with being kind to other people,"says Dr.Toru Sato,a 初二英语阶段测评第7页共10页 writer and expert in thoughts and feelings,but we need to be sure we're doing it out of kindness,not because we're worried about what other people think. Taking on so much that you end up letting yourself down doesn't make you a better friend.Boundaries include taking time alone when you need it and being able to explain your needs.When someone asks you to do something,give yourself time to think about it before answering.Put time aside every day just for you and spend it doing something you enjoy like reading a book or listening to music.If saying no feels hard,practise with small things,like if someone offers a candy in a restaurant.This can help you feel more confident, Thinking about how to say no also helps you to communicate what you want clearly and calmly.Remember,you don't need an excuse to say no;you don't need to give anyone an explanation.The good people in your life will respect()this boundary. 28.The underlined word "trap"is closest in meaning to A.terrible mistake B.difficult situation C.surprising result D.special attention 29.What can we learn from the passage? A.We can get lasting satisfaction from pleasing others. B.We'd better give an excuse when we refuse someone. C.We should save some time for our own pleasure every day. D.We should answer immediately when someone asks for help. 30.What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage? A.To lead people to build better boundaries. B.To encourage people to try to be kind to others. C.To help people to communicate with others well. D.To make people see the true meaning of people-pleasing. 第二部分（主观题） 本部分共9题，共23分。根据题目要求，完成相应任务。 四、阅读回答问题。（共9分，31-33每题2分，34题3分） 初二英语阶段测评第8页共10页 Working Out through Online Videos Physical exercise is good for our mind,body and spirit.Today.working out through online videos is becoming very popular.Since the Internet is widely used,it's very easy for us to do so.That means we can work out anytime anywhere.
