When Alex was 15 and in middle school, he saw his best friend Lily facing a major challenge-she had a severe learning disability. Reading and understanding complex texts was extremely hard for her, which hurt her grades and made her lose confidence. Determined to support her, Alex made up his mind to find a solution.
One day, while carelessly reading Reader’s Digest, Alex chanced upon an article about the shocking power of artificial intelligence (AI) in education. Deeply inspired by the article, he made up his mind to create an Al-based learning tool that could effectively help students like Lily. Alex spent months learning programming languages and algorithms (算法). He faced numerous tough challenges along the way, such as checking and reorganizing codes (代码) , which mean programming instructions, and searching for relevant data, which mean information having something to do with developing such an app. However, he never thought of giving up. Finally, he developed an app called “ReadEase”, which uses AI to analyze texts and provide simplified explanations, synonyms, and clear audio-readings. It can also track the user’s progress and offer personalized learning plans.
When Alex introduced “ReadEase” to Lily, she was doubtful at first. “But to my surprise, after using it for a few weeks, I noticed a significant improvement in my reading skills. I can finally understand what I'm reading.” Lily said excitedly.
The success of “ReadEase” didn’t stop there. Alex shared his invention with his school’s teachers, who were deeply impressed by its huge potential. They started using the app in their classes to help students with learning difficulties. Now, Alex is working on improving “ReadEase” and hopes to make it available to more students around the world. “I want to use technology to make a positive impact on people’s lives,” he said with great enthusiasm.
24. Why did Alex decide to create “ReadEase”?
A. To win a science fair. B. To help his close friend.
C. To finish a school project. D. To show his knowledge about AI.
25. What challenge did Alex meet while creating the app?
A. Finding similar examples to follow.
B. Lacking time and money.
C. Figuring out suitable programming languages.
D. Coding programming instructions properly.
26. What can we infer from Lily’s words?
A. She is not used to the app. B. The app is of great help to her.
C. The app doesn’t function well. D. She still has difficulty reading.
27. Which of the following best describes Alex according to the text?
A. Creative and determined. B. Out-going and generous.
C. Humorous and earnest. D. Cool-headed and responsible.
C
Diwali, also known as the “Festival of Lights,” is observed in Canada every October or November. People mark the occasion in many ways — schools, businesses, community groups, and cultural associations all join in the festivities. Some companies host special Diwali dinners, while communities organize various events like firework shows, dance performances, street light displays, and theatrical plays.
Many women wear fine jewellery and silk outfits to celebrate Diwali. Some women and girls use Mehendi, a dye decoration which can last a limited time, on their palms, and then they will finally get colourful hand paintings. Many homes that celebrate Diwali have various types of sweets, salty and spiced food as well as Diwali herbs (香草). Various lights, candles and sparklers are lit inside and outside homes, especially in courtyards, on Diwali. Diwali is not a nationwide public holiday in Canada, but it is a prevalent festival celebrated in many towns and cities. There may be traffic jams and parking places may be full in areas where events are held to celebrate Diwali. Some businesses may close early on Diwali.
Diwali is called the “Festival of Lights” and is celebrated to honour Rama, a hero who once fought and won a battle against the demons (恶魔). In the past, people lit their houses to celebrate his victory over demons (light over darkness). At the same time, every household did careful and complete cleaning at home in advance. It is believed that the goddess of happiness and good fortune, Lakshmi, travels around the Earth on this day and enters the house that is pure, clean, and bright.
Diwali celebrations may vary in different communities but its spiritual meaning is generally “the awareness of the inner light”. As the word “Deepavali” means “a row or cluster of light”, the festival symbolises the victory of righteousness and the lifting of spiritual darkness.
28. What can we learn about Diwali from the first two paragraphs?
A. It is celebrated on a fixed day.
B. It centres on various local foods.
C. People stay up late to prepare for it.
D. People from all walks of life enjoy celebrating it.
29. What does the underlined word “prevalent” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Popular. B. Free. C. Serious. D. Funny.
30. According to Paragraph 3, why did people make their houses bright and clean on Diwali?
A. To expect joy and good luck. B. To pray for a good journey.
C. To create a romantic atmosphere. D. To welcome their friends to visit.
31. What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage?
A. To stress the importance of a public holiday.
B. To briefly introduce a traditional festival in Canada.
C. To tell an interesting story about a Canadian festival.
D. To show different holiday celebrations in Western cultures.
D
Role models serve as important examples to look up to, especially for scientists. However, recent studies suggest that scientists recognized for their efforts and hard work inspire others more than those seen as just “naturally gifted.”
In a series of studies, researchers found that young people were more motivated (激励) by scientists whose success was connected with efforts than those whose success was because of natural intelligence, even if that scientist was Albert Einstein.
Danfei Hu, a doctoral student at the Pennsylvania State University, and Janet N.Ann. an assistant professor of Psychology at William Paterson University, said the findings — recently published in Basic and Applied Social Psychology — would help deal with the certain secret about what it takes to succeed in science.
According to the researchers, there is anxiety in the science community about a number of students who run after careers in science during school only to drop out of those career paths once they graduate from college. To help solve the problem, Hu and Ann wanted to research role models, who give the students specific goals, behavior or strategies they can follow.
The researchers performed studies with 176 and 162 participants in each study respectively (分别). In the first study, all participants read the same story about common struggles a scientist met in his science career. However, half were told the story was about Einstein, while half were told it was about Thomas Edison. Although the stories were the same, participants were more likely to believe natural brilliance was the reason for Einstein’s success. In addition, the participants who believe the story was about Edison were more motivated to complete a series of maths problems.
“This proved that people generally seem to view Einstein as a genius, with his success commonly linked to extraordinary talent,” Hu said. “Edison, on the other hand, is known for failing more than 1,000 times when trying to create the light bulb, and his success is linked to his efforts.” Hu added, “Knowing that something great can be achieved through hard work and efforts, more students will step into the science career confidently.”
32. What kind of scientist is more inspiring?
A. Those who were born with a gift. B. Those who made important discoveries.
C. Those who are viewed as great inventors. D. Those who are famous for their hard work.
33. What is the concern in the science community?
A. The students will drop out of school soon.
B. There are fewer role models for students to follow.
C. Fewer students will continue to work on science.
D. Some scientists cannot give students specific goals.
34. Why were some participants motivated to complete a series of maths problems?
A. They knew the problems were given by Edison.
B. They believed they were as intelligent as Einstein.
C. They believed they could solve the problems by working hard.
D. They knew they were to work together with Einstein and Edison.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. Einstein’s Success Story B. How to Be a Great Scientist
C. Edison’s Achievements Are Greater D. Einstein Is Less Encouraging than Edison

77. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Tony and I were in our school basketball team, the Lions. We loved basketball and were both huge fans of the NBA. When we weren’t playing on the court, we were watching a game on TV. My favourite player was LeBron James while Tony’s was Tyrone Bogues.
Bogues was only 1.6 metrest all, which made him the shortest player ever in the NBA. Guess what? Tony was only 1.6metrest all, too! Tony knew that being shorter than other players meant that he had to practise more. During all those hours of doing jump shots on his own, he used Bogues as his inspiration. Tony once said, “If Bogues could make it, why not me?”
But our coach was not so sure. Tony had to tryout many times just for making the team. He was still usually on the bench(场边休息区), being just a replacement. Everyone knew Tony had real skills, and was someone who worked really hard and had a strong desire to play for the team. However, Tony didn’t get a chance.
This week, the Lions were playing our main competitors, the Bears, a team whose record this season had been perfect. They hadn’t lost a single game.
The last quarter began, and my team was behind by 10 points. Suddenly, a player and I crashed into each other. Pain raced through my body. My knee hurt badly. “I don’t think I can play anymore, coach,” I said quietly as the doctor put an icepack on my knee.
“No way,” the coach replied sharply. “We’ve got no more players!”
注意:
1.续写词数应100左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
“What about Tony?” someone suggested.

【原文】W: Good evening, bookworms! Welcome to Reading with Susie. I’m Susie Watson, spending this early autumn night with you and the book of this week: Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom. This book is a memoir written by Mitch, and it talks about how he reconnected with his old sociology professor Morrie, who was diagnosed with ALS, a deadly disease which makes the patient eventually unable to breathe. The book records the author’s weekly visits with Morrie, where Morrie shares his unique insights on love and life and gradually became the author’s life mentor for years to come. The time I spent reading this book was mostly emotional but thought-provoking. In my mind, this book is well-written and absolutely worth reading. It is short but full of wisdom. Most importantly, this book will make you reconsider your priorities in life. I also want to recommend a list of books that share similar or relevant topics with Tuesdays with Morrie. If you’re interested in getting the list or giving your thoughts, feedback and comments on this book, you’re welcome to contact me via email at readingwithsusie@mail.com or any social media account of this program.

When Alex was 15 and in middle school, he saw his best friend Lily facing a major challenge-she had a severe learning disability. Reading and understanding complex texts was extremely hard for her, which hurt her grades and made her lose confidence. Determined to support her, Alex made up his mind to find a solution.
One day, while carelessly reading Reader’s Digest, Alex chanced upon an article about the shocking power of artificial intelligence (AI) in education. Deeply inspired by the article, he made up his mind to create an Al-based learning tool that could effectively help students like Lily. Alex spent months learning programming languages and algorithms (算法). He faced numerous tough challenges along the way, such as checking and reorganizing codes (代码) , which mean programming instructions, and searching for relevant data, which mean information having something to do with developing such an app. However, he never thought of giving up. Finally, he developed an app called “ReadEase”, which uses AI to analyze texts and provide simplified explanations, synonyms, and clear audio-readings. It can also track the user’s progress and offer personalized learning plans.
When Alex introduced “ReadEase” to Lily, she was doubtful at first. “But to my surprise, after using it for a few weeks, I noticed a significant improvement in my reading skills. I can finally understand what I'm reading.” Lily said excitedly.
The success of “ReadEase” didn’t stop there. Alex shared his invention with his school’s teachers, who were deeply impressed by its huge potential. They started using the app in their classes to help students with learning difficulties. Now, Alex is working on improving “ReadEase” and hopes to make it available to more students around the world. “I want to use technology to make a positive impact on people’s lives,” he said with great enthusiasm.
24. Why did Alex decide to create “ReadEase”?
A. To win a science fair. B. To help his close friend.
C. To finish a school project. D. To show his knowledge about AI.
25. What challenge did Alex meet while creating the app?
A. Finding similar examples to follow.
B. Lacking time and money.
C. Figuring out suitable programming languages.
D. Coding programming instructions properly.
26. What can we infer from Lily’s words?
A. She is not used to the app. B. The app is of great help to her.
C. The app doesn’t function well. D. She still has difficulty reading.
27. Which of the following best describes Alex according to the text?
A. Creative and determined. B. Out-going and generous.
C. Humorous and earnest. D. Cool-headed and responsible.
【答案】24. B 25. D 26. B 27. A

Diwali, also known as the “Festival of Lights,” is observed in Canada every October or November. People mark the occasion in many ways — schools, businesses, community groups, and cultural associations all join in the festivities. Some companies host special Diwali dinners, while communities organize various events like firework shows, dance performances, street light displays, and theatrical plays.
Many women wear fine jewellery and silk outfits to celebrate Diwali. Some women and girls use Mehendi, a dye decoration which can last a limited time, on their palms, and then they will finally get colourful hand paintings. Many homes that celebrate Diwali have various types of sweets, salty and spiced food as well as Diwali herbs (香草). Various lights, candles and sparklers are lit inside and outside homes, especially in courtyards, on Diwali. Diwali is not a nationwide public holiday in Canada, but it is a prevalent festival celebrated in many towns and cities. There may be traffic jams and parking places may be full in areas where events are held to celebrate Diwali. Some businesses may close early on Diwali.
Diwali is called the “Festival of Lights” and is celebrated to honour Rama, a hero who once fought and won a battle against the demons (恶魔). In the past, people lit their houses to celebrate his victory over demons (light over darkness). At the same time, every household did careful and complete cleaning at home in advance. It is believed that the goddess of happiness and good fortune, Lakshmi, travels around the Earth on this day and enters the house that is pure, clean, and bright.
Diwali celebrations may vary in different communities but its spiritual meaning is generally “the awareness of the inner light”. As the word “Deepavali” means “a row or cluster of light”, the festival symbolises the victory of righteousness and the lifting of spiritual darkness.

Role models serve as important examples to look up to especially for scientists. However, recent studies suggest that scientists recognized for their efforts and hard work inspire others more than those seen as just “naturally gifted.”
In a series of studies, researchers found that young people were more motivated (激励) by scientists whose success was connected with efforts than those whose success was because of natural intelligence, even if that scientist was Albert Einstein.
Danfei Hu, a doctoral student at the Pennsylvania State University, and Janet N.Ann. an assistant professor of Psychology at William Paterson University, said the findings — recently published in Basic and Applied Social Psychology — would help deal with the certain secret about what it takes to succeed in science.
According to the researchers, there is anxiety in the science community about a number of students who run after careers in science during school only to drop out of those career paths once they graduate from college. To help solve the problem, Hu and Ann wanted to research role models, who give the students specific goals, behavior or strategies they can follow.
The researchers performed studies with 176 and 162 participants in each study respectively (分别). In the first study, all participants read the same story about common struggles a scientist met in his science career. However, half were told the story was about Einstein, while half were told it was about Thomas Edison. Although the stories were the same, participants were more likely to believe natural brilliance was the reason for Einstein’s success. In addition, the participants who believe the story was about Edison were more motivated to complete a series of maths problems.
“This proved that people generally seem to view Einstein as a genius, with his success commonly linked to extraordinary talent,” Hu said. “Edison, on the other hand, is known for failing more than 1,000 times when trying to create the light bulb, and his success is linked to his efforts.” Hu added, “Knowing that something great can be achieved through hard work and efforts, more students will step into the science career confidently.”
32. What kind of scientist is more inspiring?
A. Those who were born with a gift. B. Those who made important discoveries.
C. Those who are viewed as great inventors. D. Those who are famous for their hard work.
33. What is the concern in the science community?
A. The students will drop out of school soon.
B. There are fewer role models for students to follow.
C. Fewer students will continue to work on science.
D. Some scientists cannot give students specific goals.
34. Why were some participants motivated to complete a series of maths problems?
A. They knew the problems were given by Edison.
B. They believed they were as intelligent as Einstein.
C. They believed they could solve the problems by working hard.
D. They knew they were to work together with Einstein and Edison.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. Einstein’s Success Story B. How to Be a Great Scientist
C Edison’s Achievements Are Greater D. Einstein Is Less Encouraging than Edison
【答案】32. D 33. C 34. C 35. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项研究发现,以辛勤工作著称的科学家比被视为天生才华横溢的科学家更鼓舞人心。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Role models serve as important examples to look up to, especially for scientists. However, recent studies suggest that scientists recognized for their efforts and hard work inspire others more than those seen as just “naturally gifted.”(榜样是值得敬仰的重要范例,尤其是对于科学家们来说。然而,最近的研究表明,科学家的努力和比那些被认为是“天生有天赋”的人更能激励别人)”可知,那些以努力工作著名的科学家更鼓舞人心。故选D。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“According to the researchers, there is anxiety in the science community about a number of students who run after careers in science during school only to drop out of those career paths once they graduate from college.(据研究人员称,科学界对一些学生感到焦虑,他们在学校期间追求科学事业,但大学毕业后却退出了这些职业道路)”可知,科学界担心的是更少的学生将从事科学研究。故选C。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“In addition, the participants who believe the story was about Edison were more motivated to complete a series of maths problems.(此外,相信故事是关于爱迪生的参与者更有动力完成一系列数学问题)”和最后一段中“Knowing that something great can be achieved through hard work and efforts, more students will step into the science career confidently.(知道通过辛勤工作和努力可以取得伟大的成就,更多的学生将满怀信心地步入科学事业)”可知,实验表明,相信故事是关于爱迪生的参与者更有动力完成一系列数学问题,因为通过爱迪生的故事,他们知道通过辛勤工作和努力可以取得伟大的成就,这让他们满怀信心地步入科学事业。由此推知,一些参与者有动力完成一系列数学问题,因为他们相信通过努力工作就能解决问题。故选C。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据倒数第二段“However, half were told the story was about Einstein, while half were told it was about Thomas Edison. Although the stories were the same, participants were more likely to believe natural brilliance was the reason for Einstein’s success. In addition, the participants who believe the story was about Edison were more motivated to complete a series of maths problems.(然而,一半的人被告知这个故事是关于爱因斯坦的,一半的人被告知这个故事是关于托马斯·爱迪生的。虽然故事是一样的,但参与者更倾向于相信天才是爱因斯坦成功的原因。此外,相信这个故事是关于爱迪生的参与者更有动力去完成一系列的数学问题)”可知,文章主要介绍了一项研究发现,以辛勤工作著称的科学家比被视为天生才华横溢的科学家更令人鼓舞,并列举了研究人员关于爱因斯坦和爱迪生的例子。D选项“爱因斯坦不如爱迪生令人鼓舞”能够概括文章主要内容,适合作本文最佳标题。故选D。

【56题详解】
考查动词时态。句意:在过去的几年里,它已经展示出了彻底改变我们生活的能力。根据时间状语During the past few years可知,show“展示”这一动作开始于过去,持续到现在,句子时态应用现在完成时,主语it是第三人称单数,助动词用has。故填has shown。
【57题详解】
考查形容词。句意:现在,增强现实(AR)应用程序和设备可以作为教育辅助工具使用,让学生以一种互动且引人入胜的方式学习。本空作表语,应用形容词形式accessible“可到达的,可使用的”。故填accessible。
【58题详解】

考查名词。句意:教育中增强现实(AR)技术的支持者们也强调它在偏远地区的实用性,在那些地方,学生们不容易找到博物馆或科学展览。本空作主语,且谓语动词stress是原形,故主语用supporter“支持者”的复数形式。故填Supporters。
【61题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:教育中增强现实(AR)技术的支持者们也强调它在偏远地区的实用性,在那些地方,学生们不容易找到博物馆或科学展览。本空引导定语从句,先行词是remote locations,关系词代替先行词在定语从句中作地点状语,所以用关系副词where引导。故填where。
【62题详解】
考查介词。句意:尽管在教育中使用增强现实(AR)技术有众多优点,但并不是每个人都相信这是一种积极的发展。前后句之间是让步关系,且空后是名词词组,故用介词despite“尽管”。故填Despite。

77. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Tony and I were in our school basketball team, the Lions. We loved basketball and were both huge fans of the NBA. When we weren’t playing on the court, we were watching a game on TV. My favourite player was LeBron James while Tony’s was Tyrone Bogues.
Bogues was only 1.6 metrest all, which made him the shortest player ever in the NBA. Guess what? Tony was only 1.6metrest all, too! Tony knew that being shorter than other players meant that he had to practise more. During all those hours of doing jump shots on his own, he used Bogues as his inspiration. Tony once said, “If Bogues could make it, why not me?”
But our coach was not so sure. Tony had to tryout many times just for making the team. He was still usually on the bench(场边休息区), being just a replacement. Everyone knew Tony had real skills, and was someone who worked really hard and had a strong desire to play for the team. However, Tony didn’t get a chance.
This week, the Lions were playing our main competitors, the Bears, a team whose record this season had been perfect. They hadn’t lost a single game.
The last quarter began, and my team was behind by 10 points. Suddenly, a player and I crashed into each other. Pain raced through my body. My knee hurt badly. “I don’t think I can play anymore, coach,” I said quietly as the doctor put an icepack on my knee.
“No way,” the coach replied sharply. “We’ve got no more players!”
注意:
1.续写词数应为100左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
“What about Tony?” someone suggested.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】“What about Tony?” someone suggested. But the coach shook his head. I also suggested letting Tony have a try. Then, Tony himself asked the coach to let him try and promised that he wouldn’t let the coach down. Finally, the coach agreed. Tony jumped up and rushed onto the court. And clearly, all the extra hours that he’d spent practicing alone paid off. The other team just couldn't keep up with his energy and speed. He made shot after shot, and the crowd couldn’t stop clapping and cheering. When the game ended, our team had won by two points. A great sense of joy welled up in everyone’s heart. Surprised at Tony’s performance, the coach hit Tony on the shoulder and said that he’ d just earned his place on the team.
