From smartphones to smart homes, AI makes our lives easier. But what exactly is AI? Think of it as a super-smart computer that can learn, solve problems, and even understand human languages. Now, let’s explore how AI helps us. AI is like a helpful assistant in daily life. For example, voice assistants like Siri or Alexa can answer questions, set alarms, or control your home lights. They use “natural language processing” to understand what you say. In schools, AI tools help teachers grade homework faster and suggest personalized learning plans. Some apps even correct your spelling and grammar in real time! AI also plays a big role in healthcare and education. In hospitals, AI can analyze X-rays and help doctors find diseases early. It’s also used to develop new medicines. Meanwhile, in education, AI-powered apps like Duolingo teach languages by fitting in with your learning speed. Imagine having a 24/7 tutor (家庭教师) who knows exactly what you need! Although AI can do many things, it’s not perfect. Some people worry that it might take all jobs, like factory work or customer service. However, experts say AI will also create new jobs, like robot repair and AI programming. The key is to use AI wisely. For example, self-driving cars use AI to reduce accidents, but humans still need to monitor them. Remember, AI is a tool—it doesn’t replace humans, but it can make our work smarter. So let’s accept AI with curiosity! By learning to use it responsibly, we can build a better future together. 1. What does the underlined word “They” refer to? A. Voice assistants. B. Home lights. C. Learning plans. D. Some apps. 2. Which of the following can summarize Paragraph Four? A. AI will replace all human jobs. B. AI is helpful in healthcare and education. C. AI is helpful but not perfect and needs wise use. D. AI can build a better future for humans. 3.

Middle school is 1 important stage for students to develop creativity. 2 traditional teaching often focuses on exams, many educators still believe that students’ creative thinking should also be developed. In a middle school in Guangzhou, teachers have designed special courses so far. For example, in art classes, students aren’t limited to drawing on paper. Instead, they are encouraged to use 3 materials like recycled plastic bottles to create works of art. “When we 4 students more freedom, they will show amazing creativity,” said Ms. Chen, an art teacher.

From smartphones to smart homes, AI makes our lives easier. But what exactly is AI? Think of it as a super-smart computer that can learn, solve problems, and even understand human languages. Now, let’s explore how AI helps us. AI is like a helpful assistant in daily life. For example, voice assistants like Siri or Alexa can answer questions, set alarms, or control your home lights. They use “natural language processing” to understand what you say. In schools, AI tools help teachers grade homework faster and suggest personalized learning plans. Some apps even correct your spelling and grammar in real time! AI also plays a big role in healthcare and education. In hospitals, AI can analyze X-rays and help doctors find diseases early. It’s also used to develop new medicines. Meanwhile, in education, AI-powered apps like Duolingo teach languages by fitting in with your learning speed. Imagine having a 24/7 tutor (家庭教师) who knows exactly what you need! Although AI can do many things, it’s not perfect. Some people worry that it might take all jobs, like factory work or customer service. However, experts say AI will also create new jobs, like robot repair and AI programming. The key is to use AI wisely. For example, self-driving cars use AI to reduce accidents, but humans still need to monitor them. Remember, AI is a tool—it doesn’t replace humans, but it can make our work smarter. So let’s accept AI with curiosity! By learning to use it responsibly, we can build a better future together. 1. What does the underlined word “They” refer to? A. Voice assistants. B. Home lights. C. Learning plans. D. Some apps. 2. Which of the following can summarize Paragraph Four? A. AI will replace all human jobs. B. AI is helpful in healthcare and education. C. AI is helpful but not perfect and needs wise use. D. AI can build a better future for humans. 3. What’s the structure of the passage? (P1: Paragraph 1; P2: Paragraph 2...) A. B. C. D. 4. Where can we read the passage? A. In an education newspaper. B. In an entertainment poster. C. In a self-driving car ad. D. In a science magazine. 5. What’s the best title for the passage? A. AI: a powerful tool for our lives B. How to make an AI software C. A tool which may replace humans D. The development history of AI B In Liuhe Senior High School, Jiangsu, teachers often use AI tools like DeepSeek to check homework, study students’ learning information, and make special notebooks for wrong answers. These years, the school has spent more money on smart education. It got new things like smart blackboards. With the “Jike System”, it also made a special platform (平台) called “Smart Brain”. This platform helps with all parts of teaching, making things easier for teachers and students. Since 2018, the school has been using the “Jike System”. The system can quickly turn students’ test papers into e-papers, so teachers can grade them faster. Then, the school set up the “Smart Brain” platform. It saves many learning materials (材料), makes school-made question banks, and designs (设计) homework based on students’ test results. Teachers in the school also use AI to make their classes lively. For example, physics teacher Chang Renfei uses DeepSeek to search for fun teaching materials. He turns boring physics formulas (公式) into interesting stories. This helps students understand better. Using AI in education isn’t just about technology. It also helps students think in new ways. Students like Zhang Hongxuan and his team made a cool robot called “Eco-Messenger”. They used Al to make it dance and follow lines. Their work won a big prize in a competition. The school wants to keep using AI in its education. It hopes to help teachers teach better and make learning more fun and useful for students. 1. What does the “Jike System” help teachers do? A. Quickly turn test papers into e-papers. B.
