Soll is a village in the mountains in western Austria. And the Hotel Post, opened by a local family, is clean and cheap. Have a good trip to Thailand! When you visit Bangkok in Thailand, don't miss the early morning river boat trip to the Floating（漂浮的） Market. There you will find many kinds of fruits and vegetables, and you can pay for them when you sit in your boat. Welcome to Guangzhou! Guangzhou is a wonderful place for travelling.

What about bees and butterflies? They can't wear masks. A study led by Dr Ryall may give us the answer. His study finds that air pollution is bad for pollinators（传花粉者） like bees, butterflies and other insects. They can't smell flowers because of the pollution. Pollinators are important. They spread pollen（花粉） among plants with flowers. This helps the flower produce seeds（种子） and fruits. Without pollinators, farms cannot make food. To do their study, Dr Ryall's team built some new areas. They sent some bad gas there. In these areas, they found that only 30% of the pollinators flew in. Once they were there, they didn't hang around. “The results were much severer than we thought, ” said Dr Ryall. “The pollution was so serious that it would be bad for the growth of flowers. ” Scientists explained that bad gas can break down the smells of flowers. This makes it hard for pollinators to find their food. Shannon, a scientist in India, pointed out if we do nothing to solve the problem of air pollution, pollinators will become fewer and fewer. 49. Pollinators may _________ because of air pollution. A. eat more food B. spread less pollen C. find other food D. smell flowers easily 50. What happened to pollinators in the areas with bad gas? A. They didn't hang around. B. They found food more easily. C. They couldn't find each other. D. Most of them flew in the areas. 51. What does the underlined word “severer” mean in Chinese? A. 更有益的 B. 更不同的 C. 更严重的 D. 更有影响力的 52. Where's the article probably from? A. A novel B A science magazine C. A play D. A letter 【C】 Nowadays, artificial intelligence （AI） tools like DeepSeek are becoming very popular. They bring big changes to our life, especially in learning and working. DeepSeek has great technology. For example, its language models can answer lots of different questions well. In learning, students can use it to get more knowledge. When they have difficult problems in subjects like History, Maths or Science, they can ask DeepSeek for help. At work, it makes employees better at analyzing data Marketers can use it to guess what will happen in the market, and writers can find ideas from it to write better things. But, while DeepSeek gives us so much convenience, there are also problems. Some students depend too much on it and just copy the answers it gives. This is really wrong. In fact, with the growth of AI, we need to focus more on making our creativity better. In the future, jobs that need people to do the same thing over and over again will be taken by AI. Only those who are really creative can do well. For example, in art design, designers should use their own ideas to make great works instead of just using what AI makes. In science, researchers need to think of new ideas to find out things we don't know. So, we should see AI as a useful tool, not something that does our thinking for us. We must work on growing our creativity by keeping learning and practicing to get ready for the future. 53. How does DeepSeek help employees at work? A. It helps them copy the answers. B. It helps them solve the problems. C. It helps them guess what to happen next. D. It helps them analyze data better. 54. What's the wrong way some students use DeepSeek? A. Ask for help. B. Learn to write. C. Copy the answers. D. Answer difficult answers. 55. Which sentence is NOT right according to the passage? A. AI is a useful tool, not something that does our thinking for us. B. Designers should use their own ideas instead of just using what AI makes. C. AI can do some things that need people to do over and over again. D. In the future, all the jobs will be taken by AI. 56. What's the structure of this passage? A. B. C. D. 【D】 I was becoming thinner and thinner. When my master noticed this, he thought I would not live much longer. But it was clear that he wanted to make as much money out of me as he could. While he was thinking how to do this, he was asked to bring me to the palace. The Queen and her ladies had heard about me and wanted to see me. When we arrived in front of the Queen, I fell/ on my knees. But she kindly held out her hand to me. “Would you enjoy living here in the palace? ” “Great queen, ” I answered, “I must do what my master wants, but if I were free, I would want to spend my whole life following your orders. ” She bought me from my master at once. He was happy to receive a good price for me, especially as he felt sure I would not live longer than a month. “Why didn't you say goodbye to him? And why did you look at him so coldly? ” the Queen said to me. “Madam, I must tell you, ” I replied, “since he found me, my master has used me as an easy way of making money for himself. He's made me work so hard that I feel tired and ill. That caused my weight loss. He's sold me to you only because he thinks I'm going to die soon.
