When I was a girl growing up, I cannot once ever remember either my mum or my grandma wasting food. Anything we didn’t eat at one meal was leftovers (剩菜). I can remember my grandma making a huge pot of potatoes. We would all eat until we were full enough, but there were always about half of the potatoes leftover. A few days later, Grandma would take those potatoes out of the fridge, boil some noodles, add some vegetables and mix them all together. And I also remember when I watched my mum fry bacon for us in the morning, she would always take the oil carefully and pour it into a bottle. Then she would use it later to add flavor to so many other dishes. I was an adult before I realized that potatoes didn’t actually taste like bacon!
I learned their lessons well, and after I grew up, I tried to never waste food myself. I always planned the week’s meals ahead of time and only bought what was on my shopping list so that nothing went to waste. Every meal went into our stomachs and any leftovers were later eaten by either myself, my boys, my husband or, my dogs. To me, throwing food into the bin was just wrong.
However, when it comes to living, there are no leftovers. Life is just like a feast. Each moment that you don’t live is lost forever. Life cannot be saved or stored. Each day is a fresh beginning. Live each moment of your life to the fullest, then.
5. The writer’s grandma used the leftover potatoes to ________.
A. mix with noodles B. boil some vegetables C. fry bacon D. throw away
6. Why did the potatoes cooked by the writer’s mum taste like bacon?
A. Because she mixed the bacon with potatoes.
B. Because she put potatoes into the containers.
C. Because she was good at cooking.
D. Because she poured the bacon oil into potatoes.
7. According to the passage, how did the writer save food in her way?
A. By shopping ahead of time. B. By throwing it into the litter bin.
C. By following her mother’s shopping list. D. By planning the next week’s food.
8. What does the underlined word “feast” in the last paragraph probably mean?
A. Sweet dream. B. Large meal. C. Happy story. D. Beautiful picture.
C
January 20, 2025, a Chinese tech company named DeepSeek made a new AI called DeepSeek-R1. This smart program can solve math problems, write code (代码) and answer questions like top models such as OpenAI’s GPT-4, but it costs much less to build. The team spent only $5.58 million (1/70 of OpenAI’s cost) and used 2,048 computer chips (芯片) for two months to make it. This shows that good ideas can beat big money.
DeepSeek-R1 learns by trying many times and getting better, like how students practice maths. Other AIs need lots of prepared examples, but R1 improves by itself. In a global math test, it got 79.8% right, a little higher than OpenAI’s model. A simple version (版本) of RI can even run on low cost computers, helping schools and small companies.
DeepSeek-R1 is free to use and change. On its first day online, over 19,000 programmers worldwide started projects to study it. A German scientist said experiments with R1 cost 10 instead of $300 with other AIs. Even Meta (a famous U.S. tech company) top scientist said, “This kind of free AI could change the world.”
U.S. tech companies are worried. Meta planned to spend $65 billion more on AI research. Experts said China was catching up fast. A report in Nature magazine called R1 a “big step forward”, confirming (确认) that smart ideas beat expensive tools.
As a DeepSeek engineer said, “We want AI to be a friend, not something only rich people can use. With RI, China shows the world that great things come from new ideas and hard work, not just money.”
9. How much did it cost to build DeepSeek-R1?
A. $5.58 million. B. $65 billion. C. $10. D. $300.
10. What can we learn about DeepSeek-R1 from Paragraph 2?
A. It needs programmers to fix mistakes. B. It becomes better through practice.
C. It copies answers from other AIs. D. It only works with expensive tools.
11. Why did Meta plan to spend more money on AI research?
A. To help Chinese companies. B. To build more computer chips.
C. To compete with DeepSeek-R1. D. To learn from German scientists
12. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. Competition between GPT-4 and DeepSeek-R1
B. Comparison of Chinese and American AI Models
C. Appearance of Chinese AI Model DeepSeek-R1
D. Global Influence of Chinese AI Model DeepSeek-R1
D
Humans have long tried to predict (预测) the weather. From the hunters of ancient times to today’s pilots, predicting rain or shine can shape people’s life and make a difference.
In 650 BC, the Babylonians tried to predict the weather based on the appearance of clouds. Around 340 BC, Aristotle, a famous Greek thinker and scientist, wrote Meteorological. It introduced the types of weather, such as rain, cloud and lightning. Aristotle believed that there was water, air and fire around the Earth. It was almost 2,000 years before the new ideas took the place of his ideas. By 300 BC in China, a calendar divided the year into 24 festivals gradually, each festival related to a type of weather, like the Rain Water (the start of the spring rains), the Waking of Insects (the spring thunder awakens sleeping insects) and so on. That was useful for farmers to plan when to plant and harvest (收获).
People used lots of ways to predict the weather over the centuries. You might have heard the expressions like “Red sky at night sailor’s delight”, which suggests a red sky in the evening is followed by good weather. This has a basis in science, as does telling wind direction through smoke from the fire. On the other hand, some thought that if sheep crowded together, it meant rain. But there isn’t any science behind it.
The science of weather prediction really took off in the 1830s with the invention of the telegraph. It sent messages over hundreds of thousands of miles, so weather maps were drawn up and storm systems were studied. The next big step came in the 1920s with the invention of the “radiosonde”, a balloon carrying weather instruments high above the ground to collect information. Experts took the information and built a picture of the weather over the following few days.
Today, supercomputers are used to take data (数据) from the world and process it very fast to work out the weather. For example, they once helped predict where Hurricane Lee, which hit the US and Canada, would land nine days in advance (提前).
13. How is the text mainly developed?
A. In the order of place. B. In the order of event
C. In the order of time. D. In the order of importance.
14. What can we infer from the text?
A. The look of the clouds was used to predict the weather long ago.
B. Aristotle’s ideas lasted for almost 3000 years.
C. Each festival of the calendar has no relation with the weather.
D. Every way to predict the weather has science behind it.
15. The science of weather prediction took off in the 1830s because of ________.
A. the invention of the telegraph B. the invention of radiosonde
C. the invention of supercomputers D. the invention of weather maps
16. What’s the writer’s purpose of writing the text?
A. To introduce the development of weather prediction.
B. To compare methods of weather prediction.
C. To show that ancient people did better in weather prediction.
D. To encourage people to study the science of weather prediction.

Qian Xuesen was a pioneer in the development of China’s aerospace (航空航天) science and technology. In 1999, he received the Two Bombs and One Satellite Merit Award. He is called the “father of China’s aerospace” and “king of rockets”.
Qian was born in Shanghai in 1911. He studied engineering at Shanghai Jiao Tong University and then went to further his education in the USA. In 1939, he was awarded a doctorate (博士学位) in Aerospace Engineering and Mathematics. After that, he spent many years teaching and doing research at universities in the USA.
While in the USA, Qian achieved lots of success and he was a well-respected person in his field. However, he decided to return to China when he heard of the founding of the People’s Republic of China. He was eager (急切的) to bring his knowledge and skills to his homeland and began planning his return.
Qian finally got back to China in 1955. Once home, he worked tirelessly to raise the level of China’s science and technology. One of Qian’s greatest achievements was in the field of aerospace engineering. He played a key role in developing China’s first rocket. Thanks to his groundbreaking research, China became one of the few countries in the world to explore space. His influence is still present today in the Long March rocket programme and other space missions.
Qian devoted (献身) himself to his country, and his great work brought honour and success to China. Still, Qian lived a simple life and was not interested in fame or money. He said, “If after I die the public feels I have made some contributions during my life, that approval would be the highest praise of all.”

Humans have long tried to predict (预测) the weather. From the hunters of ancient times to today’s pilots, predicting rain or shine can shape people’s life and make a difference.
In 650 BC, the Babylonians tried to predict the weather based on the appearance of clouds. Around 340 BC, Aristotle, a famous Greek thinker and scientist, wrote Meteorological. It introduced the types of weather, such as rain, cloud and lightning. Aristotle believed that there was water, air and fire around the Earth. It was almost 2,000 years before the new ideas took the place of his ideas. By 300 BC in China, a calendar divided the year into 24 festivals gradually, each festival related to a type of weather, like the Rain Water (the start of the spring rains), the Waking of Insects (the spring thunder awakens sleeping insects) and so on. That was useful for farmers to plan when to plant and harvest (收获).
People used lots of ways to predict the weather over the centuries. You might have heard the expressions like “Red sky at night, sailor’s delight”, which suggests a red sky in the evening is followed by good weather. This has a basis in science, as does telling wind direction through smoke from the fire. On the other hand, some thought that if sheep crowded together, it meant rain. But there isn’t any science behind it.
The science of weather prediction really took off in the 1830s with the invention of the telegraph. It sent messages over hundreds of thousands of miles, so weather maps were drawn up and storm systems were studied. The next big step came in the 1920s with the invention of the “radiosonde”, a balloon carrying weather instruments high above the ground to collect information. Experts took the information and built a picture of the weather over the following few days.
Today, supercomputers are used to take data (数据) from the world and process it very fast to work out the weather. For example, they once helped predict where Hurricane Lee, which hit the US and Canada, would land nine days in advance (提前).
13. How is the text mainly developed?
A. In the order of place. B. In the order of event
C. In the order of time. D. In the order of importance.
14. What can we infer from the text?
A. The look of the clouds was used to predict the weather long ago.
B. Aristotle’s ideas lasted for almost 3000 years.
C. Each festival of the calendar has no relation with the weather.
D. Every way to predict the weather has science behind it.
15. The science of weather prediction took off in the 1830s because of ________.
A. the invention of the telegraph B. the invention of radiosonde
C. the invention of supercomputers D. the invention of weather maps
16. What’s the writer’s purpose of writing the text?
A. To introduce the development of weather prediction.
B. To compare methods of weather prediction.
C. To show that ancient people did better in weather prediction.
D. To encourage people to study the science of weather prediction.
