Turning soil, pulling weeds, and harvesting cabbage sound like tough work for middle and high school kids. And at first it is, says Abby Jaramillo, who with another teacher started Urban Sprouts, a school garden program at four low-income schools. The program aims to help students develop science skills, environmental awareness, and healthy lifestyles.
Jaramillo’s students live in neighborhoods where fresh food and green space are not easy to find and fast food restaurants outnumber grocery stores. “The kids literally come to school with bags of snacks and large bottles of soft drinks,” she says. “They come to us thinking vegetables are awful, dirt is awful, insects are awful.” Though some are scared of the insects and turned off by the dirt in the beginning, most are eager to try something new.
Urban Sprouts’ classes, at two middle schools and two high schools, include hands-on experiments such as soil testing, flower-and-seed dissection, testing of fresh or dried produce, and work in the garden. Several times a year, students cook the vegetables they grow, and they occasionally make salads for their entire schools.
Program evaluations show that kids eat more vegetables as a result of the classes. “We have students who say they went home and talked to their parents and now they’re eating differently,” Jaramillo says.
She adds that the program’s benefits go beyond nutrition. Some students get so interested in gardening that they bring home seeds to start their own vegetable gardens. Besides, working in the garden seems to have a calming effect on Jaramillo’s special education students, many of whom have emotional control issues. “They get outside,” she says, “and they feel successful.”
29. What do we know about Abby Jaramillo?
A. She used to be a health worker. B. She grew up in a low-income family.
C. She owns a fast food restaurant. D. She is a creator of Urban Sprouts.
30. What was a problem facing Jaramillo at the start of the program?
A. The kids’ parents distrusted her. B. Students had little time for her classes.
C. Some kids disliked garden work. D. There was no space for school gardens.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Saving School Gardens B. Experiencing Country Life
C. Growing Vegetable Lovers D. Changing Local Landscape
【答案】29. D 30. C 31. C
【解析】

Is the rise of AI doctors like something out of science fiction? No, it is truly happening now. In different parts of China, we can clearly see how AI is bringing big changes to the medical field.
In February 2025, Beijing Children’s Hospital introduced China’s first AI children’s doctor. One day, an 8-year-old boy had sudden and unexplained epilepsy (癫痫). Thirteen top doctors tried hard to find out the best treatment. At the same time, the AI quickly looked into the boy’s medical history and symptoms (症状). In just a few minutes, it came up with a plan that was very similar to what the human doctors thought.
In Shandong, a worried couple decided to try an AI tool called DeepSeek when their child felt unwell. After offering the blood test results, DeepSeek suggested that the boy probably had a bad cold and recommended some medicine. Surprisingly when they went to the hospital, the doctor prescribed the exact same medicine.
Even in places that don’t have many medical resources, like some community hospitals in Wuhan and countrysides in Shandong, AI is giving a helping hand. In Wuhan, hospitals can now use AI to study CT in less than a minute. Before, it would take hours. In Shandong countrysides, there are AI systems that help patients describe how they feel and even make it easier for disabled people to get around in the hospitals.
All these real-life examples show us two important things that AI technology can do. It can help top doctors make better decisions and it can also make everyone in the country get health care more easily. However, the discussions are still going on. As one doctor said, “AI technology can give us ideas, but the care and judgment (判断) that humans bring are still needed.”
32. Why does the writer start the passage by asking a question?
A. To make a report. B. To do a survey.
C. To have an interview. D. To introduce the topic.
33. Which is the meaning of the underlined word “prescribe” in Paragraph 3?
A. To advise or order the use of medication.
B. To recommend the use of AI.
C. To set rules or steps that must be followed.
D. To officially tell someone what to do.
34. Which is TRUE according to the passage?
A. In Wuhan community hospitals, it takes AI hours to study CT.
B. In Beijing, an AI children’s doctor helped an 8-year-old boy with a bad cold.
C. In Shandong countryside hospitals, AI can help the disabled get around easily.
D. AI doctors can hardly make everyone in the country get health care more easily.
35. What does the writer think of AI technology?
A. Touching. B. Worrying. C. Harmful. D. Helpful.
【答案】32. D 33. A 34. C 35. D
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了AI如何为医疗领域带来重大变化。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据“Is the rise of AI doctors like something out of science fiction? No, it is truly happening now. In different parts of China, we can clearly see how AI is bringing big changes to the medical field.”可知,文章开篇用问句是为了引出“AI医生”这一话题,引发读者思考。故选D。
【33题详解】
词句猜测题。根据“Surprisingly when they went to the hospital, the doctor prescribed the exact same medicine.”及前文可知,当他们去医院时,医生开了和DeepSeek建议的完全一样的药,因此划线词prescribed意为“给……开药”。故选A。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据“In Shandong countrysides, there are AI systems that help patients describe how they feel and even make it easier for disabled people to get around in the hospitals.”可知,山东乡村的AI系统能帮助残障人士更方便就医。故选C。
【35题详解】
观点态度题。根据“All these real-life examples show us two important things that AI technology can do. It can help top doctors make better decisions and it can also make everyone in the country get health care more easily.”及全文可知,文中列举了AI在医疗方面的积极作用,因此作者读AI的态度是认为它很有帮助。故选D。

Have you ever lost yourself in doing something so that you forget the time? Everything around you—from the ringing of phones to the people passing by—seemed to be away.
Most of us have had this experience at one time or another. This special state (状态) of mind is called “flow”. When it happens, we completely pay attention to what we are doing. We feel energetic, even excited about what we are doing. For example, when you are drawing, you might forget to eat dinner because you lose yourself in it. ①
The idea of flow was introduced and first studied by psychologist (心理学家) Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi. According to his discovery, whether flow happens depends on the difficulty of the challenge and our skill levels. For example, if the task is low challenging and doesn’t require a lot of skills, we probably feel bored towards it. But facing a challenging task without the required skills could easily cause worry. He finally drew the conclusion that when the challenge is difficult and we believe we have enough skills, flow happens. ②
What advantages does flow bring? During flow, people can work faster and better. For example, artists said that they could produce more works easily “without putting in much effort” in the flow state. Flow can also make people more curious and creative because they have to look for new challenges and information to keep the state. ③
Flow often happens during creative activities and sports activities. But flow states aren’t just something experienced by artists, writers or sports persons. Flow can happen anytime a person is deeply lost in a task, including during learning activities. Many people want to achieve flow more often in their daily lives. While doing a task, having clear plans, adding something challengeable and giving and receiving feedback (反馈) in time can help achieve flow. It’s more difficult to achieve flow if people’s attention are distracted (分散), so it’s necessary that smartphones, TV and other distractions get turned off. ④
36. When people are in flow, they CAN’T ________.
A. forget the time B. hear the ringing of phones
C. give full attention to their tasks D. feel excited about what they do
37. According to Csikszentmihalyi’s study, which diagram (示意图) shows the flow state?
A. B.
C. D.
38. Where can the sentence “With flow, people have greater levels of happiness and satisfaction in their activities.” be put in the passage?
A. ① B. ② C. ③ D. ④
39. Who can most probably achieve flow according to the passage?
A. A runner who wants to win the first prize in an important race.
B. An artist who is drawing an apple for his 10—year—old daughter
C. A chess player who doesn’t know what to do before competitions.
D. A student who is taking an exam when having a headache.
40. What is the passage mainly about?
A. The early study on flow. B. The advantages of flow.
C. The requirements for flow. D. The introduction to flow.
【答案】36. B 37. A 38. C 39. A 40. D
【解析】

Chinese architect Liu Jiakun, 68, was awarded the 2025 Pritzker Architecture Prize on March 4. becoming the second winner from China to receive the highest honor in the field of architecture. Based in Chengdu, Liu’s career covers four decades and more than 30 projects. He founded Jiakun Architects in 1999 and has built a diverse body of work, ranging from small, beautifully designed museums and monuments (纪念碑) to large commercial buildings and master plans for cities.
The Pritzker Architecture Prize
Rather than following a distinct style, Liu’s projects include local elements and rely on “low-tech” simplicity to achieve beauty, The Spaces reported. “He has developed a strategy that never bases on a recurring (反复出现的) method but rather on evaluating the specific characteristics and requirements of each project differently,” the jury (评审团) said in its citation announcing the award.
One of Liu’s most well-known projects around the world was the so-called “rebirth bricks” he created after the terrible Wenchuan earthquake in 2008. To aid in reconstruction, Liu made bricks using local wheat fiber, cement (水泥) and rubble (瓦砾) from collapsed buildings. More than just recycling, these bricks were “a poetic metaphor”, for the rebirth of the material and “the spiritual rebirth of the community at a time of national mourning”, reported The Guardian, These bricks were later used in several of his projects, including the Shuijingfang Museum in Chengdu and the Novartis pharmaceutical (制药) company in Shanghai.
Liu’s design also focuses on ordinary people. This is reflected in his largest project, West Village, a five-story urban complex completed in 2015 in Chengdu, The complex includes a soccer field, a market, and pathways for cyclists and pedestrians (行人). With grass growing through holes in the bricks, the project celebrates “the liveliness of ‘everyday life’,” wrote critic Austin Williams in 2017. It has become a popular destination for people from home and abroad to spend their leisure time.
“Architecture serves to create a beautiful, just and dignified (有尊严的) living environment. People’s real lives, happiness and dignity are what we strive for,” Liu told China Daily.

The program aims to help students develop science skills, environmental awareness, and healthy lifestyles.
Jaramillo’s students live in neighborhoods where fresh food and green space are not easy to find and fast food restaurants outnumber grocery stores. “The kids literally come to school with bags of snacks and large bottles of soft drinks,” she says. “They come to us thinking vegetables are awful, dirt is awful, insects are awful.” Though some are scared of the insects and turned off by the dirt in the beginning, most are eager to try something new.
Urban Sprouts’ classes, at two middle schools and two high schools, include hands-on experiments such as soil testing, flower-and-seed dissection, testing of fresh or dried produce, and work in the garden. Several times a year, students cook the vegetables they grow, and they occasionally make salads for their entire schools.
Program evaluations show that kids eat more vegetables as a result of the classes. “We have students who say they went home and talked to their parents and now they’re eating differently,” Jaramillo says.
She adds that the program’s benefits go beyond nutrition. Some students get so interested in gardening that they bring home seeds to start their own vegetable gardens. Besides, working in the garden seems to have a calming effect on Jaramillo’s special education students, many of whom have emotional control issues. “They get outside,” she says, “and they feel successful.”

Is the rise of AI doctors like something out of science fiction? No it is truly happening now. In different parts of China, we can clearly see how AI is bringing big changes to the medical field.
In February 2025, Beijing Children’s Hospital introduced China’s first AI children’s doctor. One day, an 8-year-old boy had sudden and unexplained epilepsy (癫痫). Thirteen top doctors tried hard to find out the best treatment. At the same time, the AI quickly looked into the boy’s medical history and symptoms (症状). In just a few minutes, it came up with a plan that was very similar to what the human doctors thought.
In Shandong, a worried couple decided to try an AI tool called DeepSeek when their child felt unwell. After offering the blood test results, DeepSeek suggested that the boy probably had a bad cold and recommended some medicine. Surprisingly when they went to the hospital, the doctor prescribed the exact same medicine.
Even in places that don’t have many medical resources, like some community hospitals in Wuhan and countrysides in Shandong, AI is giving a helping hand. In Wuhan, hospitals can now use AI to study CT in less than a minute. Before, it would take hours. In Shandong countrysides, there are AI systems that help patients describe how they feel and even make it easier for disabled people to get around in the hospitals.
All these real-life examples show us two important things that AI technology can do. It can help top doctors make better decisions and it can also make everyone in the country get health care more easily. However, the discussions are still going on. As one doctor said, “AI technology can give us ideas, but the care and judgment (判断) that humans bring are still needed.”
32. Why does the writer start the passage by asking a question?

B. In Beijing, an AI children’s doctor helped an 8-year-old boy with a bad cold.
C. In Shandong countryside hospitals, AI can help the disabled get around easily.
D. AI doctors can hardly make everyone in the country get health care more easily.

Have you ever lost yourself in doing something so that you forget the time? Everything around you—from the ringing of phones to the people passing by—seemed to be away.
Most of us have had this experience at one time or another. This special state (状态) of mind is called “flow”. When it happens, we completely pay attention to what we are doing. We feel energetic, even excited about what we are doing. For example, when you are drawing, you might forget to eat dinner because you lose yourself in it. ①
The idea of flow was introduced and first studied by psychologist (心理学家) Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi. According to his discovery, whether flow happens depends on the difficulty of the challenge and our skill levels. For example, if the task is low challenging and doesn’t require a lot of skills, we probably feel bored towards it. But facing a challenging task without the required skills could easily cause worry. He finally drew the conclusion that when the challenge is difficult and we believe we have enough skills, flow happens. ②
What advantages does flow bring? During flow, people can work faster and better. For example, artists said that they could produce more works easily “without putting in much effort” in the flow state. Flow can also make people more curious and creative because they have to look for new challenges and information to keep the state. ③
Flow often happens during creative activities and sports activities. But flow states aren’t just something experienced by artists, writers or sports persons. Flow can happen anytime a person is deeply lost in a task, including during learning activities. Many people want to achieve flow more often in their daily lives. While doing a task, having clear plans, adding something challengeable and giving and receiving feedback (反馈) in time can help achieve flow. It’s more difficult to achieve flow if people’s attention are distracted (分散), so it’s necessary that smartphones, TV and other distractions get turned off. ④
36. When people are in flow, they CAN’T ________.
A. forget the time B. hear the ringing of phones
C. give full attention to their tasks D. feel excited about what they do
37. According to Csikszentmihalyi’s study, which diagram (示意图) shows the flow state?
A. B.
C. D.
38. Where can the sentence “With flow, people have greater levels of happiness and satisfaction in their activities.” be put in the passage?
A. ① B. ② C. ③ D. ④
39. Who can most probably achieve flow according to the passage?
A. A runner who wants to win the first prize in an important race.
B. An artist who is drawing an apple for his 10—year—old daughter
C. A chess player who doesn’t know what to do before competitions.
D. A student who is taking an exam when having a headache.
40. What is the passage mainly about?
A. The early study on flow. B. The advantages of flow.
C. The requirements for flow. D. The introduction to flow.

Chinese architect Liu Jiakun, 68, was awarded the 2025 Pritzker Architecture Prize on March 4. becoming the second winner from China to receive the highest honor in the field of architecture. Based in Chengdu, Liu’s career covers four decades and more than 30 projects. He founded Jiakun Architects in 1999 and has built a diverse body of work, ranging from small, beautifully designed museums and monuments (纪念碑) to large commercial buildings and master plans for cities.
The Pritzker Architecture Prize
Rather than following a distinct style, Liu’s projects include local elements and rely on “low-tech” simplicity to achieve beauty, The Spaces reported. “He has developed a strategy that never bases on a recurring (反复出现的) method but rather on evaluating the specific characteristics and requirements of each project differently,” the jury (评审团) said in its citation announcing the award.
One of Liu’s most well-known projects around the world was the so-called “rebirth bricks” he created after the terrible Wenchuan earthquake in 2008. To aid in reconstruction, Liu made bricks using local wheat fiber, cement (水泥) and rubble (瓦砾) from collapsed buildings. More than just recycling, these bricks were “a poetic metaphor”, for the rebirth of the material and “the spiritual rebirth of the community at a time of national mourning”, reported The Guardian, These bricks were later used in several of his projects, including the Shuijingfang Museum in Chengdu and the Novartis pharmaceutical (制药) company in Shanghai.
Liu’s design also focuses on ordinary people. This is reflected in his largest project, West Village, a five-story urban complex completed in 2015 in Chengdu, The complex includes a soccer field, a market, and pathways for cyclists and pedestrians (行人). With grass growing through holes in the bricks, the project celebrates “the liveliness of ‘everyday life’,” wrote critic Austin Williams in 2017. It has become a popular destination for people from home and abroad to spend their leisure time.
“Architecture serves to create a beautiful, just and dignified (有尊严的) living environment. People’s real lives, happiness and dignity are what we strive for,” Liu told China Daily.
