These images (形象) include the way we look, the way we act, the way we talk and the way we think. When we find that believing in ourselves is a bit hard, it is time we build positive self-images and learn to have happy lives. Interestingly our self-images are often quite different from the images others hold about us. Unluckily most of these images are more negative (消极的) than they should be. As a result, changing the way we think about ourselves is the key to changing our self-images and our whole world. The best way to destroy a passive (被动的) self-image is to step back and decide to pay attention to our successes. That is, make a list if we need to but write down all of the great things we do every day. Don’t allow doubts (怀疑) to happen to us. It very well might be that we are experiencing negative self-images because we can’t move past the weakness that we see about ourselves. We’ll make a change of it as our primary task. If we think we’re silly because we aren’t good at math, find someone to help us. If we think we’re weak because we can’t run a mile, get more practice. But remember what we think doesn’t mean it’s true. The best way to get rid of a negative self-image is to realize that our images are far from the goals and to actively make ourselves believe that we have positive personalities. Changing the way we think and working on those we need to improve will go a long way to create new positive self-images. When we can pat ourselves on the back we’ll know we’re well on our way. 1．When do we need to build positive self-images? 2．What is the key to changing our self-images? 3．How can we destroy passive self-images? 4．Do you think about yourself in a positive way or a negative way? Please give an example. 【答案】1．When we find that believing in ourselves is a bit hard. 2．Changing the way we think about ourselves. 3．By stepping back and deciding to pay attention to our successes. 4．开放性试题，言之有理即可。参考答案为：故填In a positive way. For example, once I was afraid to give a speech in front of many students. But instead of giving up, I practiced a lot, then finally I made it. 【导语】本文主要探讨了自我形象的概念，指出自我形象常与他人对我们的看法不同且多偏消极，强调改变自我认知是改变自我形象的关键，并提出了消除消极自我形象的方法，即关注成功、正视弱点并积极改变、主动相信自己有积极个性。 1．根据第一段最后一句“When we find that believing in ourselves is a bit hard, it is time we build positive self-images and learn to have happy lives.”可知，当我们发现相信自己有点困难时，就需要建立积极的自我形象了。故填When we find that believing in ourselves is a bit hard. 2．根据第二段最后一句“As a result, changing the way we think about ourselves is the key to changing our self-images and our whole world.”可知，改变我们看待自己的方式是改变我们的自我形象和整个世界的关键。故填Changing the way we think about ourselves. 3．根据第三段第一句“The best way to destroy a passive self-image is to step back and decide to pay attention to our successes.”可知，摧毁消极的自我形象的最好方法是退后一步，决定关注我们的成功。故填By stepping back and deciding to pay attention to our successes. 4．开放性试题，言之有理即可。参考答案为：故填In a positive way.

However, sometimes people may see it differently. Some people may get hurt if there are too many jokes. When you show you can’t accept the jokes, the jokes might get worse. We should consider the relationships when joking. Close friends usually enjoy teasing (开玩笑). Healthy teasing can usually make people relaxed. When both sides know it’s just joking, they can understand each other better. The environment is also important for close relationships. It doesn’t matter when your sister calls your nickname (绰号) at home. However, it’s quite bad when a classmate shouts it out at school. When making a joke, we often see the funny side of it. But others may see it in a different way. Sometimes we forget the other person may not find it funny. People have different life experiences, so they understand jokes differently. For example, imagine someone not swimming at a pool party. Others might tease him or her about being unable to swim. But maybe that person is just afraid of water. Keep in mind that people may have their own reasons for not seeing the funny side. It’s a good way to build good friendships by respecting others. In daily life, we should pay attention to our words when playing jokes. 1．What may happen if there are too many jokes? 2．How do people usually feel about healthy teasing? 3．What is also important for close relationships? 4．Why do people understand jokes differently? 5．How can we build good relationships? 【答案】1．Some people may get hurt. 2．People usually feel relaxed. 3．The environment. 4．Because people have different life experiences. 5．By respecting others. 【导语】本文主要讨论了开玩笑这件事，包括过多玩笑可能带来的问题、健康玩笑给人的感受、亲密关系中开玩笑需注意的环境、人们理解笑话不同的原因以及如何通过尊重他人建立良好关系。 1．根据“Some people may get hurt if there are too many jokes.”可知，如果玩笑太多，有些人可能会受到伤害。故填Some people may get hurt. 2．根据“Healthy teasing can usually make people relaxed”可知，健康的玩笑通常能让人放松。故填People usually feel relaxed. 3．根据“The environment is also important for close relationships.”可知，环境对于亲密关系也很重要。故填The environment. 4．根据“People have different life experiences, so they understand jokes differently.”可知，人们有不同的生活经历，所以他们对笑话的理解不同。故填Because people have different life experiences. 5．根据“It’s a good way to build good friendships by respecting others.”可知，通过尊重他人是建立良好关系的好方法。故填By respecting others.

Robots are playing an important part in our life. They can help people do lots of boring and dangerous work. They’re useful because they never get tired and bored and can’t feel any pain (疼痛). But these days, some scientists believe it’s a good idea to make robots feel pain.     Scientists from Germany are working on teaching robots how to feel pain. “Pain is a system that protects us humans,” said Johannes Kuehn, one of the scientists. “When we stay away from the thing that could make us feel pain, we’ll not get hurt.” How dangerous it would be if we couldn’t feel pain. Although pain hurts, it helps us keep away from dangerous things. The same will be true for robots. As a greater number of people work closely with robots, robots need to be smarter to protect themselves. Johannes believes that if humans protect robots, robots will protect humans as well. Some Japanese scientists have made a robot which can see pain on human faces. Robots will be very useful in everyday life if they can see pain on human faces. For example, if robots can see pain on human faces, they’ll be able to care for old people. It’s clear that robots are more and more like humans. Maybe in the future, robots will think and talk like humans. Do you agree? 1．What can people use robots to do? 2．What are scientists from Germany doing? 3．How would it be if we couldn’t feel pain? 4．What kind of robots have some Japanese scientist made? 5．Do you think we should make robots feel pain? Why or why not? 【答案】1．Lots of boring and dangerous work. 2．(They are) working on teaching robots how to feel pain. 3．(It would be) dangerous. (How dangerous it would be if we couldn’t feel pain.) 4．A robot which can see pain on human faces. 5．Yes, I do. If robots can feel pain, they’ll be able to protect themselves and humans. 【导语】本文讲述了科学家们正在研究如何让机器人感觉到疼痛，这样它们就能够保护自己，也可以保护人类。 1．根据第一段“They can help people do lots of boring and dangerous work.”可知，人们可以用机器人做很多无聊和危险的工作。故填Lots of boring and dangerous work. 2．根据第二段“Scientists from Germany are working on teaching robots how to feel pain.”可知，德国科学家正在研究教机器人如何感知疼痛。故填(They are) working on teaching robots how to feel pain. 3．根据第三段“How dangerous it would be if we couldn’t feel pain.”可知，如果我们不能感觉疼，将会是危险的。故填(It would be) dangerous. (How dangerous it would be if we couldn’t feel pain.) 4．根据第四段“Some Japanese scientists have made a robot which can see pain on human faces. ”可知，一些日本科学家已经制造出一种机器人，它可以看到人类脸上的痛苦。故填A robot which can see pain on human faces. 5．此题答案不唯一，根据第三段“As a greater number of people work closely with robots, robots need to be smarter to protect themselves. Johannes believes that if humans protect robots, robots will protect humans as well.”可知，我们应该让机器人感觉疼痛，因为那样他们就能保护他们自己或人类。故填Yes, I do. If robots can feel pain, they’ll be able to protect themselves and humans. 阅读下面短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 It will be fantastic if you don’t have to use your hands to brush your teeth. Someday, a robotic tooth-cleaner might do it for you! It is a kind of tooth-cleaner with a lot of nanoparticles (纳米粒子). The nanoparticles are very small ball balls. They can move in a person’s mouth. Also, you can change them into any shape you want. The nanoparticles can also kill bacteria (细菌) just like toothpaste or mouthwash. At the very beginning Koo and Steager study in different fields. Steager builds very small robots. Koo tries to find new ways to work out the problems about teeth. Both of them were using the same nanoparticles but they didn’t know each other at first. One day, a friend learned about both of their ideas and he told them they should meet. They met each other in a quiet library on a cold afternoon and they found that they could  work together. Though Steager worked with these nanoparticles, he never thought that they might be useful in this way. “It was an amazing moment.” he says. “We hope to see that the new way to clean teeth could help some ill people who can’t brush teeth easily.” Koo says. The scientists have tested the robotic tooth-cleaner in their own lab again and again. But it isn’t yet ready for people to use. The robotic tooth-cleaner will need to practice more comfortably and safely inside a person’s mouth. Koo and Steager are working hard on it. If their hard work can make the tooth-cleaner better, a lot of sick people can brush teeth easily and happily with the help of the tooth-cleaner. 1．What is a robotic tooth-cleaner? 2．Who made Koo and Steager know each other? 3．Where did Koo and Steager meet? 4．Can people use the robotic tooth-cleaner now? 5．How do you like the new tooth-cleaner? 【答案】1．A robotic tooth-cleaner is a device with a lot of nanoparticles. 2．A friend. 3．In a quiet library. 4．No. 5．I think the new tooth-cleaner is innovative and helpful, especially for sick people who can’t brush their teeth easily. 【导语】本文介绍了一种新的机器人牙齿清洁器，它包含纳米粒子，可以在口腔内切换形状来清洁牙齿并杀菌。 1．根据“It is a kind of tooth-cleaner with a lot of nanoparticles”可知，机器人牙齿清洁器是一种含有大量纳米粒子的牙齿清洁器。故填A robotic tooth-cleaner is a device with a lot of nanoparticles. 2．根据“One day, a friend learned about both of their ideas and he told them they should meet.”可知，是一位朋友让Koo和Steager认识了对方。故填A friend. 3．根据“They met each other in a quiet library on a cold afternoon”可知，他们在一个安静的图书馆见面。故填In a quiet library. 4．根据“But it isn’t yet ready for people to use”可知，现在人们还不能使用这款机器人牙齿清洁器。故填No. 5．开放性试题，言之有理皆可。参考答案为I think the new tooth-cleaner is innovative and helpful, especially for sick people who can’t brush their teeth easily. Read the passage and answer the questions. Have you ever imagined two tigers reading e-books or dolphins playing soccer underwater? With Sora, these funny ideas can become videos in seconds! Sora is a powerful AI video tool created by OpenAI, the same company behind ChatGPT. Sora wasn’t open to the public at first, but OpenAI invited some experts and artists to test it for problems. Now we can use Sora to turn text descriptions into videos. If you type some key words like “robots dancing on Mars,” Sora will create a lively video about it. Unlike older AI models, Sora’s videos are more creative and longer. In 2024, the videos lasted only one to two minutes. This year, they may be as long as five minutes. However, Sora isn’t perfect yet. Sora can’t tell left or right. In a video on the OpenAI website, a man is running on the playground in the opposite direction. What’s worse, Sora’s videos look so real that some people might misuse (误用) them, so some experts say, “Always double-check AI videos—they are creative but not always true.” At the same time, some people are worried that wrong information in the videos is the biggest risk the world faces. To solve this, OpenAI is adding watermarks to Sora’s videos, helping users of Sora find out whether the information is true or not. In a word, as Sora improves, we get to know that Sora is a tool, not the answer to everything. We need proper rules and correct ways to use it. The future of Sora is exciting, but it’s up to us to shape it. 1．Who tested Sora for problems at first? 2．What can Sora change into videos? 3．Why do some people misuse Sora’s videos? 4．How can OpenAI help users of Sora find out the true information? 5．What video do you want to make with Sora? Why? 【答案】1．Some experts and artists./Some experts and artists tested Sora/it. 2．Text descriptions. / It can change text descriptions into videos. 3．Because they look so real. 4．By adding watermarks to Sora’s videos. / It is adding watermarks to Sora’s videos. 5．I want to make a video about endangered animals living happily in their natural habitats. Because it can make more people pay attention to the living conditions of endangered animals and arouse everyone’s awareness of protecting them.（回答合理即可。） 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了OpenAI开发的Sora AI工具。 1． 根据“Sora wasn’t open to the public at first, but OpenAI invited some experts and artists to test it for problems.”可知，起初是一些专家和艺术家为Sora测试问题。故填Some experts and artists./Some experts and artists tested Sora/it. 2．根据“Now we can use Sora to turn text descriptions into videos.”可知，Sora可以把文字描述变成视频。故填Text descriptions. / It can change text descriptions into videos. 3． 根据“What’s worse, Sora’s videos look so real that some people might miss (误用) them”可知，人们误用Sora的视频是因为它们看起来太真实了。故填Because they look so real. 4．根据“To solve this, OpenAI is adding watermarks to Sora’s videos, helping users of Sora find out whether the information is true or not.”可知，OpenAI通过给Sora的视频添加水印来帮助用户辨别信息的真实性。故填By adding watermarks to Sora’s videos. / It is adding watermarks to Sora’s videos. 5．开放性试题，回答合理即可。示例：我想用Sora制作一个关于濒危动物在自然栖息地快乐生活的视频。因为这能让更多人关注濒危动物的生存状况，激发大家保护它们的意识。故填I want to make a video about endangered animals living happily in their natural habitats. Because it can make more people pay attention to the living conditions of endangered animals and arouse everyone’s awareness of protecting them.（回答合理即可。） On January 20, 2025, a Chinese company named DeepSeek made a new AI called DeepSeek-R1. This AI can do math problems, write computer codes, and answer questions like the best AIs in the world. But it costs much less money to build. The team used only $5.58 million (much cheaper than other AIs) and 2,048 computer parts for two months. This shows that smart ideas are better than just spending a lot of money. DeepSeek-R1 is free to use for individuals (个人), and people can even change it. On its first day, more than 19,000 computer experts around the world started using it. A German scientist said, “Using R1 experiments costs only $10, but other AIs need $300.”Even a top scientist from Meta (a big U. S. company) said, “This free AI could change the world.” U.S. companies are now worried. They say China is becoming a leader in AI very fast. Meta plans to spend $65 billion (十亿) more on AI research. A report in Nature (a famous science magazine) called R1 a “big success”, showing that good ideas are more important than expensive tools. A DeepSeek engineer said, “We want AI to help everyone, not just rich people.” Not only DeepSeek-R1,now we have KimiAI, DJI drone, Unitree Robotics and so on. With R1 and other high-technology products, China shows to the world that great things come from new ideas and hard work, not just money. 1．How many computer experts around the world started using DeepSeek-R1 on its first day? 2．What can DeepSeek-R1 do? 3．Why are U.S. companies worried about DeepSeek-R1? 4．What does China show to the world with R1 and other high-technology products? 5．Do you think AIs will change the way people work or study? Why or why not? 【答案】1．More than 19,000 (computer experts). 2．It can do math problems, write computer codes, and answer questions. 3．Because China is becoming a leader in AI very fast. 4．Great things come from new ideas and hard work, not just money. 5．Yes, I think AIs will change the way people work or study.

Wherever we go, no matter how old we are, we must follow safety rules. Though many people might not see the purpose of stopping at a stop sign or driving at the speed limit, rules keep us safe. People start to learn about the importance of rules when they are children. There are many rules that teach children how to keep themselves and their friends safe. For example, children learn safety rules when they walk in the hallway at school. They are told not to run because they may hurt themselves or run into another student. In the lunch room, children are taught to sit nicely while they are eating to avoid being choked (噎住). In the playground, they are told to use the equipment (设备) properly. For example, they should not go down the slide backward or climb up the slide when someone is going down because there can be an accident. High school students will also be given safety rules but at a different level than younger children. High school students may be taught, for example, safety rules in the science lab. Lab safety is very important because if one thing is done wrong, it can result in a fire or a bad accident. 1．Why must we follow the safety rules? 2．What is told when the children walk in the hallway at school? 3．What should the children do in the playground? 4．Are there safety rules for high school students? 5．What safety rules do you know in your school? (至少回答两条) 【答案】1．Because safety rules keep us safe. 2．They are told not to run. 3．They should use the equipment properly. 4．Yes, there are. 5．We shouldn’t run into the classroom. We mustn’t ride a bike in school. 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了安全规则的重要性，及孩子们从小就要了解这些规则，高中生也要学习安全规则。 1．根据文中“rules keep us safe”可知，遵守安全规则是为了保证安全。故填Because safety rules keep us safe. 2．根据文中“They are told not to run because they may hurt themselves or run into another student.”可知，孩子们被告知不要跑，以免伤到自己或撞到其他学生。故填They are told not to run. 3．根据文中“In the playground, they are told to use the equipment (设备) properly.”可知，孩子们应该正确使用设备。故填They should use the equipment properly. 4．根据文中“High school students will also be given safety rules...for example, safety rules in the science lab.”可知，高中生的安全规则与小学生不同，例如实验室安全规则，因此要对一般疑问句作出肯定回答。故填Yes, there are. 5．主观发挥题，答案合理即可。故填We shouldn’t run into the classroom. We mustn’t ride a bike in school. 阅读下面短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 Singapore: Where Rules Rule Singapore is a small island country and it’s famous for its strict (严格的) rules. Visitors are often surprised to see many signs. They tell visitors what they mustn’t do. But these rules also mean that Singapore is a very clean and safe place. Here are some of Singapore’s most famous rules. Don’t Litter Singapore tries hard to keep the country clean. Everyone must throw litter in a bin, not on the ground. If someone litters, they might have to pay a fine. Don’t Take Durians on Public Transportation Another interesting rule in Singapore is about a fruit called durian (榴莲). Durians have a very strong smell, and many people don’t like them. Also, the smell can stay for a long time even when the durian is gone. Because of this, people must not take durians on buses or trains. Don’t chew Gum (嚼口香糖) In Singapore, people can’t buy or sell chewing gum. This is because chewing gum is very sticky (黏的) when people throw it on the ground. To stop this problem, Singapore decided to make a new law that said people mustn’t chew gum in 1992. Cross the Road Safely If you visit Singapore, be careful where you cross the road. Look for a pedestrian crossing—a safe place to cross. If you cross the road in any other place, you will get a $50 fine. All in all, Singapore’s rules make it a clean and safe place. When everyone follows the rules, it makes the country a better place for everyone. Maybe Singapore can be a good example for other places around the world. 1．Where must everyone throw the rubbish? 2．What’s the main reason (原因) that people mustn’t take durians on public transport? 3．When did Singapore decide to make a law against chewing gum? 4．What should you do if you want to cross the road in Singapore? 5．Are strict rules good for a country?

Because they make the country a clean and safe place and a better place for everyone. It can be very dangerous if there is a flood. It can happen with no notice and can usually wash trees and cars away, even break buildings. What should you do when the flood comes? Please read carefully the following information. ●Stay away from rivers and bridges, because floods can cause rivers to move quickly and bridges to fall down. ●Listen to emergency broadcasts for further information. If it asks you to move somewhere else, do so. ●If you are staying inside a car, get out when the water begins to flood the car itself. Then move to the top of it. ●If you have to stay in a building at the time of a flood, move to the highest floor. Only move to the roof if necessary. Once there, ask for help and let others know where you are (such as drawing SOS on the roof). ●Don’t touch power lines (电线), because they might be broken during strong storms and floods. A fallen power line can cause water nearby to become dangerous. If someone touches it, he will die. 1．Why is it dangerous if there is a flood? 2．How many pieces of information does the passage mention? 3．When might power lines become broken? 4．What should you do if there is a flood and why? Choose two points from the passage and give reasons separately. 【答案】1．Because it can happen with no notice and can usually wash trees and cars away, even break buildings. 2．5./There are 5 pieces of information. 3．During strong storms and floods. 4．First, we should stay away from rivers and bridges, because floods can cause rivers to move quickly and bridges to fall down. Staying away from them can stop us from falling into the rivers and make us safer. Second, we should listen to emergency broadcasts for further information, because if it asks us to move somewhere else, we should do so to find a safer place. 【导语】文章主要介绍了洪水的危险性，并详细说明了洪水来临时的避险方法，包括远离河流和桥梁、听从应急广播、车内和建筑物内的自救措施以及远离电线等。 1．根据“It can happen with no notice and can usually wash trees and cars away, even break buildings.”可知，洪水可能毫无征兆地突然发生，而且通常会将树木和汽车冲走，甚至会损坏建筑物，所以是很危险的。故填Because it can happen with no notice and can usually wash trees and cars away, even break buildings. 2．根据“●Stay away from rivers and bridges…●Listen to emergency broadcasts for further information…●If you are staying inside a car…●If you have to stay in a building at the time of a flood…●Don’t touch power lines (电线)…”可知，文章介绍了五条信息。故填5./There are 5 pieces of information. 3．根据“Don’t touch power lines (电线), because they might be broken during strong storms and floods.”可知，在强风暴和洪水期间，电线可能会断裂。故填During strong storms and floods. 4．本题为开放性题目，言之有理即可，答案包括“两种具体做法”和“对应的原因”两部分。参考答案为First, we should stay away from rivers and bridges, because floods can cause rivers to move quickly and bridges to fall down.

These images (形象) include the way we look, the way we act, the way we talk and the way we think. When we find that believing in ourselves is a bit hard, it is time we build positive self-images and learn to have happy lives. Interestingly our self-images are often quite different from the images others hold about us. Unluckily most of these images are more negative (消极的) than they should be. As a result, changing the way we think about ourselves is the key to changing our self-images and our whole world. The best way to destroy a passive (被动的) self-image is to step back and decide to pay attention to our successes. That is, make a list if we need to but write down all of the great things we do every day. Don’t allow doubts (怀疑) to happen to us. It very well might be that we are experiencing negative self-images because we can’t move past the weakness that we see about ourselves. We’ll make a change of it as our primary task. If we think we’re silly because we aren’t good at math, find someone to help us. If we think we’re weak because we can’t run a mile, get more practice. But remember what we think doesn’t mean it’s true. The best way to get rid of a negative self-image is to realize that our images are far from the goals and to actively make ourselves believe that we have positive personalities. Changing the way we think and working on those we need to improve will go a long way to create new positive self-images. When we can pat ourselves on the back we’ll know we’re well on our way. 1．When do we need to build positive self-images? 2．What is the key to changing our self-images? 3．How can we destroy passive self-images? 4．Do you think about yourself in a positive way or a negative way? Please give an example. Confidence（自信）is very important in daily life. A study shows that the people who are more confident are much happier. They can have more chance to make themselves win. But how to be more confident? Here are some suggestions: Speak loud. When you are not confident, you can’t do well what you want to do. You speak in a voice so low that other people can not hear you. Try to speak loud enough so that people can hear you better. The high voice can help you become more confident. Play sports.  Physical exercise makes you tired but completely relaxed. A strong body helps you be full of confidence. Encourage yourself. Write down a list of things you did during the day to see how many things you have done well. Did you finish your homework? Did you tell a joke that made everybody laugh? Give yourself praise for the good things you’ve done. Get rid of（消除）fear（恐惧）. Fear comes along with failure. But it’s easy to overcome（克服）if you know that failure is part of your life. Don’t hide your head just because you said something stupid last time. When you fail, you can try to start again and believe you can do better. It can help you to get ride of fear. Do something you like. If you like singing, sing as much as you can. And it will make you happy and confident. 根据短文内容，回答问题。 1．Is confidence important in daily life? 2．How many suggestions can help you to be more confident? 3．When you fail, what can you do to get rid of fear? 4．Which of these suggestions would you like to choose to be more confident? Why? 阅读短文，根据短文内容用完整的句子回答下列问题，答案写在答题卡指定的位置。 Joking can be a cheerful thing. However, sometimes people may see it differently. Some people may get hurt if there are too many jokes. When you show you can’t accept the jokes, the jokes might get worse. We should consider the relationships when joking. Close friends usually enjoy teasing (开玩笑). Healthy teasing can usually make people relaxed. When both sides know it’s just joking, they can understand each other better. The environment is also important for close relationships. It doesn’t matter when your sister calls your nickname (绰号) at home. However, it’s quite bad when a classmate shouts it out at school. When making a joke, we often see the funny side of it. But others may see it in a different way. Sometimes we forget the other person may not find it funny. People have different life experiences, so they understand jokes differently. For example, imagine someone not swimming at a pool party. Others might tease him or her about being unable to swim. But maybe that person is just afraid of water. Keep in mind that people may have their own reasons for not seeing the funny side. It’s a good way to build good friendships by respecting others. In daily life, we should pay attention to our words when playing jokes. 1．What may happen if there are too many jokes? 2．How do people usually feel about healthy teasing? 3．What is also important for close relationships? 4．Why do people understand jokes differently? 5．How can we build good relationships?

They can help people do lots of boring and dangerous work. They’re useful because they never get tired and bored and can’t feel any pain (疼痛). But these days, some scientists believe it’s a good idea to make robots feel pain.     Scientists from Germany are working on teaching robots how to feel pain. “Pain is a system that protects us humans,” said Johannes Kuehn, one of the scientists. “When we stay away from the thing that could make us feel pain, we’ll not get hurt.” How dangerous it would be if we couldn’t feel pain. Although pain hurts, it helps us keep away from dangerous things. The same will be true for robots. As a greater number of people work closely with robots, robots need to be smarter to protect themselves. Johannes believes that if humans protect robots, robots will protect humans as well. Some Japanese scientists have made a robot which can see pain on human faces. Robots will be very useful in everyday life if they can see pain on human faces. For example, if robots can see pain on human faces, they’ll be able to care for old people. It’s clear that robots are more and more like humans. Maybe in the future, robots will think and talk like humans. Do you agree? 1．What can people use robots to do? 2．What are scientists from Germany doing? 3．How would it be if we couldn’t feel pain? 4．What kind of robots have some Japanese scientist made? 5．Do you think we should make robots feel pain? Why or why not? 阅读下面短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 It will be fantastic if you don’t have to use your hands to brush your teeth. Someday, a robotic tooth-cleaner might do it for you! It is a kind of tooth-cleaner with a lot of nanoparticles (纳米粒子). The nanoparticles are very small ball balls. They can move in a person’s mouth. Also, you can change them into any shape you want. The nanoparticles can also kill bacteria (细菌) just like toothpaste or mouthwash. At the very beginning Koo and Steager study in different fields. Steager builds very small robots. Koo tries to find new ways to work out the problems about teeth. Both of them were using the same nanoparticles but they didn’t know each other at first. One day, a friend learned about both of their ideas and he told them they should meet. They met each other in a quiet library on a cold afternoon and they found that they could  work together. Though Steager worked with these nanoparticles, he never thought that they might be useful in this way. “It was an amazing moment.” he says. “We hope to see that the new way to clean teeth could help some ill people who can’t brush teeth easily.” Koo says. The scientists have tested the robotic tooth-cleaner in their own lab again and again. But it isn’t yet ready for people to use. The robotic tooth-cleaner will need to practice more comfortably and safely inside a person’s mouth. Koo and Steager are working hard on it. If their hard work can make the tooth-cleaner better, a lot of sick people can brush teeth easily and happily with the help of the tooth-cleaner. 1．What is a robotic tooth-cleaner? 2．Who made Koo and Steager know each other? 3．Where did Koo and Steager meet? 4．Can people use the robotic tooth-cleaner now? 5．How do you like the new tooth-cleaner? Read the passage and answer the questions. Have you ever imagined two tigers reading e-books or dolphins playing soccer underwater? With Sora, these funny ideas can become videos in seconds! Sora is a powerful AI video tool created by OpenAI, the same company behind ChatGPT. Sora wasn’t open to the public at first, but OpenAI invited some experts and artists to test it for problems. Now we can use Sora to turn text descriptions into videos. If you type some key words like “robots dancing on Mars,” Sora will create a lively video about it. Unlike older AI models, Sora’s videos are more creative and longer. In 2024, the videos lasted only one to two minutes. This year, they may be as long as five minutes. However, Sora isn’t perfect yet. Sora can’t tell left or right. In a video on the OpenAI website, a man is running on the playground in the opposite direction. What’s worse, Sora’s videos look so real that some people might misuse (误用) them, so some experts say, “Always double-check AI videos—they are creative but not always true.” At the same time, some people are worried that wrong information in the videos is the biggest risk the world faces. To solve this, OpenAI is adding watermarks to Sora’s videos, helping users of Sora find out whether the information is true or not. In a word, as Sora improves, we get to know that Sora is a tool, not the answer to everything. We need proper rules and correct ways to use it. The future of Sora is exciting, but it’s up to us to shape it. 1．Who tested Sora for problems at first? 2．What can Sora change into videos? 3．Why do some people misuse Sora’s videos? 4．How can OpenAI help users of Sora find out the true information? 5．What video do you want to make with Sora? Why? On January 20, 2025, a Chinese company named DeepSeek made a new AI called DeepSeek-R1. This AI can do math problems, write computer codes, and answer questions like the best AIs in the world. But it costs much less money to build. The team used only $5.58 million (much cheaper than other AIs) and 2,048 computer parts for two months. This shows that smart ideas are better than just spending a lot of money. DeepSeek-R1 is free to use for individuals (个人), and people can even change it. On its first day, more than 19,000 computer experts around the world started using it. A German scientist said, “Using R1 experiments costs only $10, but other AIs need $300.”Even a top scientist from Meta (a big U. S. company) said, “This free AI could change the world.” U.S. companies are now worried. They say China is becoming a leader in AI very fast. Meta plans to spend $65 billion (十亿) more on AI research. A report in Nature (a famous science magazine) called R1 a “big success”, showing that good ideas are more important than expensive tools. A DeepSeek engineer said, “We want AI to help everyone, not just rich people.” Not only DeepSeek-R1,now we have KimiAI, DJI drone, Unitree Robotics and so on. With R1 and other high-technology products, China shows to the world that great things come from new ideas and hard work, not just money. 1．How many computer experts around the world started using DeepSeek-R1 on its first day? 2．What can DeepSeek-R1 do? 3．Why are U.S. companies worried about DeepSeek-R1? 4．What does China show to the world with R1 and other high-technology products? 5．Do you think AIs will change the way people work or study? Why or why not? Wherever we go, no matter how old we are, we must follow safety rules. Though many people might not see the purpose of stopping at a stop sign or driving at the speed limit, rules keep us safe. People start to learn about the importance of rules when they are children. There are many rules that teach children how to keep themselves and their friends safe. For example, children learn safety rules when they walk in the hallway at school. They are told not to run because they may hurt themselves or run into another student. In the lunch room, children are taught to sit nicely while they are eating to avoid being choked (噎住). In the playground, they are told to use the equipment (设备) properly. For example, they should not go down the slide backward or climb up the slide when someone is going down because there can be an accident. High school students will also be given safety rules but at a different level than younger children. High school students may be taught, for example, safety rules in the science lab. Lab safety is very important because if one thing is done wrong, it can result in a fire or a bad accident. 1．Why must we follow the safety rules? 2．What is told when the children walk in the hallway at school? 3．What should the children do in the playground? 4．Are there safety rules for high school students? 5．What safety rules do you know in your school?

They tell visitors what they mustn’t do. But these rules also mean that Singapore is a very clean and safe place. Here are some of Singapore’s most famous rules. Don’t Litter Singapore tries hard to keep the country clean. Everyone must throw litter in a bin, not on the ground. If someone litters, they might have to pay a fine. Don’t Take Durians on Public Transportation Another interesting rule in Singapore is about a fruit called durian (榴莲). Durians have a very strong smell, and many people don’t like them. Also, the smell can stay for a long time even when the durian is gone. Because of this, people must not take durians on buses or trains. Don’t chew Gum (嚼口香糖) In Singapore, people can’t buy or sell chewing gum. This is because chewing gum is very sticky (黏的) when people throw it on the ground. To stop this problem, Singapore decided to make a new law that said people mustn’t chew gum in 1992. Cross the Road Safely If you visit Singapore, be careful where you cross the road. Look for a pedestrian crossing—a safe place to cross. If you cross the road in any other place, you will get a $50 fine. All in all, Singapore’s rules make it a clean and safe place. When everyone follows the rules, it makes the country a better place for everyone. Maybe Singapore can be a good example for other places around the world. 1．Where must everyone throw the rubbish? 2．What’s the main reason (原因) that people mustn’t take durians on public transport? 3．When did Singapore decide to make a law against chewing gum? 4．What should you do if you want to cross the road in Singapore? 5．Are strict rules good for a country? Why? It can be very dangerous if there is a flood. It can happen with no notice and can usually wash trees and cars away, even break buildings. What should you do when the flood comes? Please read carefully the following information. ●Stay away from rivers and bridges, because floods can cause rivers to move quickly and bridges to fall down. ●Listen to emergency broadcasts for further information. If it asks you to move somewhere else, do so. ●If you are staying inside a car, get out when the water begins to flood the car itself. Then move to the top of it. ●If you have to stay in a building at the time of a flood, move to the highest floor. Only move to the roof if necessary. Once there, ask for help and let others know where you are (such as drawing SOS on the roof). ●Don’t touch power lines (电线), because they might be broken during strong storms and floods. A fallen power line can cause water nearby to become dangerous. If someone touches it, he will die. 1．Why is it dangerous if there is a flood? 2．How many pieces of information does the passage mention? 3．When might power lines become broken? 4．What should you do if there is a flood and why?
