The caretakers and teachers in the school are from a specialized team, and the students there are orangutans (猩猩) whose parents have gone missing, making it one of the most unusual schools in the world. The orangutans aged from 2 to 8 years old are divided into five groups according to their skills. They are looked after by the team who feed the babies and teach the older ones to start feeding themselves. There are often problems in the beginning. For example, there was a lesson about how to break open a coconut to drink the milk inside. Several young orangutans couldn’t do that and they got very angry about the whole thing. Of course, as in any social group, the orangutans have to learn to get on with each other. There are the usual arguments over food when one orangutan doesn’t get what he or she wants. However, with the care of the trainers, they gradually learn to accept each other. In one of the lessons, the trainers teach young orangutans to climb trees. This is an important skill they need to learn. Some of the orangutans in particular were really scared. It took them a long time to get the courage to climb up and swing from a branch (树枝), but when they finally did it, they were so satisfied with themselves! The goal of the “education system” is to train the orangutans to be able to live in the wild again and look after themselves. They won’t have to stay at school forever. After the older orangutans are set free into the forest, there is no more connection with the people from the school. They now have to live as wild orangutans again and be accepted by the other orangutans who are already there. The day when they say goodbye is a difficult one. However, the trainers are happy that their job is done. They have successfully taught young orangutans how to live in the wild again—where they belong. 1．Where is the orangutan school? A．In a forest. B．By a lake. C．In a zoo. D．In a laboratory. 2．What do orangutans learn to do in the school? A．Fight to live. B．Be good with each other. C．Make useful tools. D．Feed babies on their own. 3．How did the young orangutans feel after learning to climb trees? A．Surprised. B．Relaxed. C．Tired. D．Happy. 4．Why is the “education system” set up for orangutans? A．To offer them an easy life. B．To train them to be independent. C．To free them from the past. D．To keep them away from humans. 5．What can be a suitable title for the text? A．A Special Forest Team B．Wildlife Schools in the World C．A School with a Difference D．Courses for Smart Orangutans Construction (建筑) is one of the biggest users of energy and one of the biggest polluters. According to AI Magazine, construction is responsible for using 38% of world energy. The building part alone takes up almost 55% of final energy use and 33% of greenhouse gases. It’s also well known that steel produces too much material waste in building construction. Because of this big challenge, the future of sustainable (可持续的) construction may lie with AI. AI is able to study building efficiency (效率) performance by grouping data to find the best chances for sustainable material usage. With a tool like AI, the future of sustainable construction could progress much faster than in the past. Besides, AI helps architects (建筑师) work with new tools and sustainable materials to create our better buildings and cities of the future. For example, construction 3D printing guided by AI can offer better choices for building materials to save money, and map out how construction materials could be recycled. In a professional article, AI is praised as a tool for sustainable construction, “In recent years, AI has become a promising tool for construction. AI can examine a large number of data sets on weather conditions and help to make full use of building systems for energy efficiency, water protection and other goals.” AI can be used to speed up the future of sustainable construction to set standards for the industry, and make construction more efficient and affordable. Like any other computer, AI is a tool that is particularly good at studying data sets, but for the moment it still requires smart and ethical (有道德的) human beings to lead its work. All of that has to be done with respect for humans, so it’s really up to us to make it work. 1．How is paragraph 1 developed? A．By listing numbers. B．By telling stories. C．By expressing feelings. D．By making comparisons. 2．How can AI help architects? A．Produce sustainable steel. B．Draw maps of dream cities. C．Invent recyclable 3D printers. D．Choose sustainable materials. 3．Which best explains the underlined word “promising” in paragraph 3? A．Facing challenges. B．Needing improving. C．Taking years to grow. D．Having a bright future. 4．What does the writer suggest in the last paragraph? A．It’s difficult to develop AI. B．Humans’ future depends on AI. C．It’s humans’ duty to guide AI. D．Humans and AI should work together. 5．What is the text mainly about? A．AI recycles construction wastes. B．AI may take the place of architects. C．AI helps sustainable construction. D．AI speeds sustainable development. In the early 1900s, Austrian scientist Karl Von Frisch discovered the “waggle dance” of honey bees. They dance to communicate where to find food showing an advanced form of communication. His discovery suggested that bees seem to “think” much like humans. Bees can count up to four and even use knowledge learned in one situation in new ones. This amazing ability they have is similar to that of a few mammals (like dolphins, rats, and some monkeys)—metacognition (元认知). Studying bees’ brains is challenging, but scientists have found ways. One such scientist is Clint Perry from Queen Mary University of London. He designed experiments (实验) where bees chose between two spots, one above and one below a black bar. If they landed above, they got a sweet drink below a terrible one. Perry made the test easier or harder by moving the landing spots further from or closer to the black bar. Perry found that bees avoided difficult tests and tried when it was easy, suggesting they can judge (判断) their chances of “passing”. This ability to make decisions according to their chances of success before is similar to how humans choose whether to take a test. However, Perry admits we can’t be sure if bees are truly judging by their own knowledge or just avoiding an unpleasant taste. Although there is much uncertainty, the discovery of metacognition in bees opens up new possibilities. It suggests that bees’ tiny brains may be quite capable (有能力的). It could be that skills such as simple math and navigation take far less actual brainpower than we thought. While bees aren’t as smart as mammals in memory and language, studying their brains could help us understand how our own brains process information. We may also have to rethink how we view the rest of the insect world. There are an awful lot of small insects flying around in the garden and crawling underground. Who knows what those tiny minds might be capable of? 1．Why do bees do the “waggle dance”? A．To count numbers. B．To show their amazing dancing skill. C．To relax themselves. D．To communicate the location of food. 2．What may Clint Perry’s experiments suggest about bees? A．They are more intelligent than monkeys. B．They prefer sweet drinks to terrible ones. C．They can judge their chances of success in a task. D．They have excellent memory and language skills. 3．What is the value of studying bees’ brains? A．It helps us study human brains. B．It reminds us to protect animals. C．It improves our own math abilities. D．It shows bees are our good friends. 4．Why does the writer end the text with a question? A．To add information about bees. B．To get readers interested in insects. C．To show doubts about the research. D．To express opinions about animal testing. 5．What is the text mainly about? A．Bees’ special communication skills. B．How bees process important information. C．The interesting “waggle dance” of bees. D．Bees’ surprising abilities and intelligence. In many cases, you may find yourself or somebody faking (假笑) a smile in photos. Why can one easily discover a fake smile and why does it seem so difficult to give a real smile in photos? Scientists have found that a real smile is featured by two main muscle (肌肉) movements. When we smile, we lift our mouth upwards and cause the skin around our eyes to gather into folds. These muscle movements are usually absent in the case of a forced smile, especially when the smile is small. Our brains are highly skilled at distinguishing the differences in muscle movements. That’s why though trying to fake a real smile can be hard, discovering it on someone else is a piece of cake. One of the most common reasons why you look unnatural in photos is an increased awareness (意识) of your appearance. The worry about posture, hair, and makeup can add to the stress, killing the chances of a real smile. A smile looks best when it comes naturally. Warm and welcoming smiles come along with warm and welcoming body language, but when you’re in front of the camera, trying too hard to perform can make your body language appear stiff (僵硬的) and far from welcoming. Besides, facial expressions are not always understood in the same way. A smile can mean differently in different cultures. For example, a wide smile that seems welcoming to some may appear fake and dishonest. This may also influence how people feel about your smile in photos. However, we shouldn’t let this trouble us too much. So, if you want to smile naturally before the camera, perhaps the simplest trick is to give your brain a real reason to feel happy. Maybe recall a joyful moment or just think back to a funny story you read...that should work! 1．What is a real smile connected with? A．Personal characters. B．Educational backgrounds. C．Muscle movements. D．Professional achievements. 2．What does the underlined word “distinguishing” mean in paragraph 2? A．Clearing. B．Telling. C．Spreading. D．Forgetting. 3．What is a reason for people’s unnatural smiles? A．They fail to hide their feelings. B．They are tired of taking photos. C．They care too much about their looks. D．They are weak in performing tricks. 4．What may help you give a real smile according to the writer? A．Recalling a strange story. B．Practicing smiles in the mirror. C．Improving your expression abilities. D．Thinking of a humorous moment. 5．What can be a suitable title for the text? A．How can we turn the fake into the real? B．How can we fake a real smile? C．Why is it hard to smile naturally in photos? D．What is needed to take good photos? A garden is much more than just creating a beautiful environment. It can be a way to save or even make money and, more than that, it can be a place where you can express yourself. For me, it’s a bit of all these things. I know it may sound strange for a 13-year-old girl to be interested in gardening, but I have always been and I would love to make a career (职业) out of it. I have learned many things these past few years. I have been reading about and doing some gardening. So, here is my top advice about gardening. First, you do not need to spend a lot of money to have a beautiful garden. Some of the gardens that I think are the prettiest are just lines of plants. There aren’t many garden decorations (装饰) and pathways. It’s just beautiful plants with fruits and vegetables. We can also find many useful things for free, from pieces of old wood to old pots and pans. Or, we can build things for free from materials that other people have thrown away. If you just remember that planting what is more than you need will take the stress away of losing some plants, you will save yourself a lot of worry, too. Besides, you need to ask yourself which plants produce enough food to make them worth growing. I actually sat down and did the maths on that one this spring. It amazed me what some plants were worth. A tomato, for example, can produce £50-£150 worth of fruit. It takes up a lot of space but that’s a lot of money coming out of a 50-pence seed (种子)! So if I had known earlier what each plant could save us, I would have told my parents to fill our garden with different plants. And finally, gardening doesn’t have to be all or nothing. But then I guess that’s more of a personality weakness than anything. I struggle with doing things a little at a time. Once I decide to do something, I usually devote every waking hour to it for a little while and then get tired. So it’s okay to just have one tomato plant, and it’s okay to have an off year. It will save you a lot of stress. 1．What does the writer want to tell us about gardening in paragraph 1? A．The gardeners can make much money. B．It’s just about creating a beautiful place. C．The most important is to express yourself. D．It means different things to different people. 2．How would the writer describe her favorite garden? A．Simple. B．Expensive. C．Magic. D．Creative. 3．What advice does the writer give us about gardening? A．Use what we can find around us. B．Try to make a career out of it. C．Ask other gardeners to give help. D．Spend as much time as we can. 4．What can we learn about the writer’s gardening experience? A．She wants to grow everything. B．She did everything right. C．She has a lot of fun in doing it. D．She needs to work harder. 5．What does the underlined word “devote” mean in the last paragraph? A．Waste. B．Spend. C．Change. D．Count. 【热点话题练习】 In the busy center of Shanghai, near Jing’an Temple, there is a lively canteen (食堂) at noon. The Tongxin Canteen offers over 60 different dishes that change every day for people to enjoy. Such a canteen was created to provide healthy and cheaper meals to the elderly, making sure they receive proper nutrition. The Shanghai government planned to build 200 new community (社区) canteens from 2019 to 2021, bringing the total to 1,608 by the end of the year. A simple meal here, including one meat dish and two plates of vegetables, costs less than 20 yuan, which is much cheaper than other restaurants. All meals are prepared freshly in local restaurants. These community canteens not only benefit (使收益) the elderly but also bring convenience for the young. Chen Luo, who works nearby, used to depend on online food services for lunch, but her parents care about the nutrition and quality. However, she didn’t have time to cook for herself. “I would spend two hours cooking and cleaning up just for a 10-minute meal,” she said. The community canteen is a perfect place for her. The government supports these canteens in different ways, such as offering rent-free (免租) space or cutting down money for water and electricity. The government allows them to offer prices 20% lower than the market rate (利率). While the canteens mainly serve older people during morning and afternoon, it welcomes people of all ages at other times. Such community canteens have become so popular that they are now welcomed on social media like WeChat. 1．What does the underlined word “nutrition” in Paragraph 2 mean? A．low price B．good looks C．short distance D．healthy diet 2．What is the advantage of eating at the canteen compared to other restaurants? A．The food is different and changes every day. B．The meals are freshly prepared. C．The lower price is the main advantage. D．The canteen welcomes people of all ages. 3．What does the underlined word “them” refer to? A．the different ways B．the elderly people C．these canteens D．the market rates 4．From the passage, who is more likely to spread the popularity of a community canteen? A．People who like to order food online. B．People who don’t care about the quality of food. C．People who have never visited a community canteen. D．People who have tried the community canteen and think it’s helpful. 5．What is the best title for the passage? A．The Government Supports for Community Canteens B．Cheaper and Healthy Meals Only for Old People C．A Perfect Solution for the Young Office Workers D．Community Canteens Benefit People of All Ages Surfing is a kind of water sport. Surfers use a surfboard to catch and ride the breaking waves. Surfing started in the Polynesian (波利尼西亚) islands of the Pacific Ocean as well as West Africa and Peru. When Polynesians first went and lived in Hawaii (夏威夷) more than 800 years ago, they brought their love of surfing with them. Surfing was more than a sport to the early Hawaiians. It was an important part of their culture. Hawaiians carved (雕刻) surfboards from the wood of special trees. The first boards were about 3 to 7 meters long and weighed more than 50 kilos. After World War II, plastic foam (塑料泡沫) boards appeared and the shape improved. Today’s surfboard is about 1.5 to 2.7 meters long and 11 to 26 kilos. Surfboards come in many different kinds, including shortboards, longboards, and fun boards. Surfing was brought to the Western world in the early 20th century. In recent years, surfing has become popular among Chinese young sport lovers. China set up its national surfing team in 2018. In March 2024, a 15-year-old girl called Yang Siqi, from Sichuan Province, became China’s first Olympic surfer. Surfing is not only about riding waves but about connecting with the ocean and having fun. It’s a sport that needs physical strength, balance (平衡感) and a love for the water.

A．Art lovers. B．Sports lovers. C．Cooking lovers. D．Book lovers. The biggest influence that technology has on family time is the way it changes how families spend time together. People used to spend more time with their family members before. Nowadays, with children (and the parents, too) spending more time texting, playing video games on smart phones, when will the family find time to bond (培养感情) and create lasting memories together? By the end of a long day at work or school, members of the family want to relax. And now technology use is widespread (普遍的) across the country, normally our “relaxing” is also known as spending time on smart phones. Not only is the amount of family time affected by technology, but also the quality. Technology can affect the quality in different ways. For example, family members can be distracted (分心的) by their phones while having dinner together. If “family time” means everyone sitting in the same room while playing online, what value is there? Personal communication is key to time well spent with loved ones. Families don’t even need to have something special to do while together. If they simply ask each other how their day is and simply have a nice dinner together, family bonds will get better. When technology becomes a focus, quality time for families goes down, which affects everyone’s life. Lack of family communication causes the family’s unity to weaken, and each of the family will be influenced in different ways. Children are more likely to develop unhealthy habits when they fail to communicate with their parents. Meanwhile, parents who put work before family or pay less attention to their children’s growth are more likely to face bad parent-child relationship. Sixty-seven percent of American teens say they want to spend more time with their parents, which is rather sad. Therefore, this passage is meant to show how technology has influenced families badly. 1．What is the biggest influence that technology has on family time? A．It brings families closer easily. B．It provides more choices to play together. C．It changes the way families spend time together. D．It increases the time families spend together. 2．What do members of the family usually do to relax by the end of a day according to Paragraph 2? A．Eat dinner together. B．Listen to radio programs. C．Spend time on smart phones. D．Play a board game together. 3．According to Paragraph 3, we can know that technology ________. A．makes us put work before family B．affects the quality of family time C．brings us convenience and happiness D．brings us more development 4．What’s the main idea of Paragraph 4? A．Simple games are helpful for family bonds. B．Families don’t need to do anything together. C．Personal communication is important for family time. D．Staying in the same room is necessary for family. 5．What’s the writer’s attitude (态度) towards the influence of technology? A．Agreeable. B．Worried. C．Surprised. D．Satisfied. Long ago, in ancient China, there was a story about the invention of silk. People believed that silk was first invented by Leizu, the wife of the Yellow Emperor. Leizu learned how to make cocoons (蚕茧) into soft and strong cloth—silk, and it was called “China’s Gold”. Following kings’ orders, the Chinese kept the secret of making silk for centuries. But something amazing happened. During the Han Dynasty, the brave officer Zhang Qian travelled west as far as Central Asia and brought silk there. As years passed, silk became so important that the trade road from China to Europe got its name—the Silk Road. From China, people sold silk and tea. In return, they received treasures such as spices (香料), gold and silver from the West. At the very beginning, it was mainly about trade; then people began to share ideas, technologies and cultures. For example, Chinese inventions like paper-making were spread to the West, while new ideas about math and science came to China. Most importantly, the Silk Road helped different cultures learn from each other. Art, music and even language were shared along this ancient road. In places like the Dunhuang Grottoes (敦煌石窟) in China, you can see how art pieces combined Eastern and Western styles into something distinctive. It cannot be seen anywhere else. The story of the Silk Road tells us how people from faraway lands could become friends through trade and shared ideas. Today, we remember the Silk Road as one of the greatest examples of cooperation (合作) and exchange in history. It shows us how important it is to learn about and respect each other’s traditions, and that different cultures can work together to create amazing things. 1．Who invented silk in ancient China? A．Leizu. B．The kings. C．Zhang Qian. D．The Yellow Emperor. 2．What was spread from China to the West according to paragraph 3? A．Silk and gold. B．Tea and paper-making.C．Spices and silver. D．New ideas of science. 3．What is the right order of the following facts from the passage? ①Zhang Qian travelled west with silk. ②Art and language were shared along the Silk Road. ③Traders from China and the West exchanged things. ④The Chinese were ordered to keep the secret of making silk. A．①→④→③→②B．①→③→④→② C．④→①→③→② D．④→③→②→① 4．What does the underlined word “distinctive” mean in paragraph 4? A．special. B．public. C．popular. D．strong. 5．What is the story of the Silk Road mainly about? A．The development of world trade. B．The introduction of silk cloth. C．The influence of technology on history. D．The importance of cross-cultural communication. In the age of GenAI (生成式人工智能), teachers everywhere are entering a new world of teaching. It’s exciting that high technology is helping students learn in powerful ways. However, teachers also have worries. For example, how can they guide students to use GenAI tools like Deepseek to learn more deeply, instead of just using them to cheat? Although their influence on education is still unsure, the use of AI in education is not new. Machine Learning, a part of AI, is very good at predicting what students are ready to learn next. For example, in an English class, it can help find out which words students have learned well and which ones they have not. This helps students avoid spending too much time on what they already know well, and it makes learning more personal. During the process, well-trained AI can see patterns in students’ use of educational software (教学软件) and let teachers know about students who may have difficulty in learning. If necessary, teachers can take proper action. GenAI will also make it possible creating intelligent (智能的) tools. Take writing in English, for example. GenAI can understand students’ writing skills as soon as they finish their writing tasks, and provide advice based on (根据) different learning styles. It also helps teachers better understand their students. Although the future with AI is not yet clear, one thing is important to remember that GenAI is another tool to help students do well. 1．How do teachers feel about GenAI? A．Happy but worried.B．Surprised but moved.C．Sad and afraid. D．Excited but tired. 2．What does the underlined word “their” in Para 2 refer to (指代)? A．Students’. B．Teachers’. C．GenAI tools’. D．Powerful ways’. 3．Why does the writer mention students’ learning English words? A．To point out some problems in AI. B．To introduce different kinds of AI tools. C．To explain the importance of AI to students. D．To give an example of how AI helps in personal learning. 4．How can GenAI help teachers according to the passage? A．It helps them work together. B．It saves their time in preparing lessons. C．It improves their communication with parents. D．It gives them a better understanding of students’ learning. 5．Who can get the most help from this passage? A．AI developers. B．English teachers. C．Language beginners. D．School students. What is the best language for learning math? Hint (提示): You are not reading it. Chinese, Japanese and Korean all have simpler number words. They express math concepts (概念) more clearly than English. The language gap has drawn lots of attention. Several recent studies have linked weaker math abilities in English-speaking children to English number words. Chinese, for example, has just ten basic number words. English, however, has more than two dozen. The trouble starts at “11”. English has a word (“eleven”) for that number. Chinese, Japanese and Korean have words that can be translated as “ten-one”—spoken with the “ten” first. That makes it easier for children to understand the place value (位值). Students can easily see the number system is based on units of 10. English number words over 10 don’t make the place value clear. Words for numbers 13 to 19 change the order of the ones and tens. Children are more likely to confuse 17 with 71. Therefore, children working with English number words have a harder time doing complex calculations. They make more mistakes. It also feels more natural for Chinese speakers than for English speakers to use the “make-a-ten” method. When adding two numbers, Chinese students often break down the numbers into parts and regroup them into tens and ones. For example, 9 plus 5 becomes 9 plus 1 plus 4. This method greatly helps students work out math problems. Many teachers in America are teaching their students the “make-a-ten” method. However, they are having a hard time because of the confusing English number words. Now, you should feel lucky that you are learning math in China. Thanks to your mother language, all the math problems have become less difficult and less confusing. 1．According to the article, several recent studies have found a relationship between English number words and ________. A．weaker math abilities in young learners of English B．stronger math abilities in young learners of English C．weaker math abilities in English-speaking children D．stronger math abilities in English-speaking children 2．According to the article, how many basic number words are there in English? A．Ten. B．Eleven. C．More than a dozen. D．More than two dozen. 3．We can learn from the first three paragraphs that ________. A．Chinese is the world’s best language for learning math B．English is the world’s worst language for learning math C．Chinese number words over 10 make the place value clear D．Japanese is a better language for learning math than Korean 4．According to the article, if you use the “make-a-ten” method to work out math problems, 8 plus 7 will become ________. A．6+2+7 B．7+1+7 C．8+1+6 D．8+2+5 5．Which of the following can take the place of the underlined expression “thanks to” (in the last paragraph)? A．Instead of. B．Because of. C．According to. D．In addition to. Parents are important in shaping their children’s lives. They make decisions and plans for their children. However, in my opinion, teenagers over the age of 15 should be allowed to make their own decisions. To begin with, teenagers over 15 have the ability to make independent decisions. With the rapid development of information and technology, today’s teenagers have a better understanding of the world. Compared with their parents, they are knowledgeable (有见识的) at an early age. So they can make independent decisions. Making decisions helps teenagers feel confident. When teenagers are allowed to make decisions, they feel more confident in their ability to deal with problems. This can help them develop a stronger feeling of control over their lives. By making decisions, teenagers learn to be independent. If parents make decisions for their children all the time, they will never learn to be responsible for themselves. They will just depend on their parents for every choice in their lives, no matter how big or small it is. When teenagers are allowed to make decisions, they may make mistakes. But it doesn’t matter. That’s because they can learn from their mistakes and will do better next time. During the process, teenagers can develop critical (批判性的) thinking skills and problem-solving abilities. Allowing teenagers to make decisions can improve relationships between children and parents. By giving children respect, parents can show that they trust their children to make good choices. With trust and respect, children will have more communication with their parents. All in all, teenagers over 15 should be given the chance to make decisions. They have the ability to do so and that is good for them and even their parents. 1．Today’s teenagers have a better understanding of the world because of ________. A．their parents B．their school education C．the communication between friends D．the rapid development of information and technology 2．What does making decisions let teenagers become? A．Active and dependent. B．Active and worried. C．Confident and independent. D．Confident and excellent. 3．What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 5 refer to? A．Making decisions. B．Making mistakes. C．Learning from mistakes. D．Developing critical thinking skills. 4．Which of the following shows the structure of the passage? A．①②/③④/⑤⑥⑦ B．①/②③④⑤/⑥⑦ C．①/②③④⑤⑥/⑦ D．①②③/④⑤⑥/⑦ 5．What is the best title of this passage? A．Making Good Decisions B．Letting Teenagers Make Decisions C．Developing Critical Thinking Skills D．Improving Parent-Teenager Relationships On October 13, 2025, China’s mobile industry entered a new time. The three main telecom companies—China Mobile, China Unicom, and China Telecom—got official permission (许可) to test a new phone service across the country. This technology, called Embedded-SIM (eSIM), is an important step toward a future without physical SIM cards. People were happy about it. On the first day, almost 100,000 people signed up with China Unicom online. China Mobile had more than 150,000 sign-ups in only four hours. Now, users need to go to a store with a phone that works with eSIM to try the service; they can’t activate (激活) it online yet. An eSIM is a very small chip inside the phone. It’s different from the plastic SIM card you put in your phone. Both let you make calls, send messages and use the internet. But with a traditional SIM, you have to change the card by hand to use a different provider. An eSIM can be turned on from far away—usually by scanning a QR code—and you can switch providers online. eSIM has many advantages. It’s more convenient: no small cards to take care of, and you can add a local data plan when abroad without a new SIM. For phone makers, taking out the SIM tray (卡槽) saves space. This lets them make phones thinner, put in better batteries and protect phones better from water. It’s also safer (not easy to lose) and better for the environment (less plastic waste). Before, eSIM was used in smartwatches. Now, it works with phones like Apple, Huawei and OPPO. It will bring more convenience to millions of Chinese users. 1．How many people signed up for China Mobile’s eSIM service in four hours? A．Nearly 100,000. B．Over 150,000. C．About 200,000. D．More than 250,000. 2．What do users need to do to try the eSIM service now? A．Activate it online directly. B．Buy a new plastic SIM card first. C．Go to a store with an eSIM phone. D．Call the telecom company for help. 3．What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A．Batteries. B．Providers. C．Phone makers. D．Small cards. 4．What can we learn from the passage? A．Only China Unicom offers the eSIM service. B．Physical SIM cards will disappear immediately. C．eSIM was first used in mobile phones in China. D．eSIM is working with some popular phone brands. 5．What is the main idea of the passage? A．How to activate eSIM service in China. B．The differences between eSIM and traditional SIM. C．The history of China’s three main telecom companies. D．The start of eSIM phone service in China and its advantages. Climate change has caused serious health problems around the world. More and more people have paid attention to the problems caused by climate change. Extreme weather events such as high temperatures, floods, and wildfires usually happen around the world. For example, there was heavy rain in Liaoning in 2024 and long hot days in the south that year. These disasters broke houses, ruined crops and made people move. In 2024, floods alone affected over 53 million Chinese people and brought big losses, which are bad for people’s lives and health. Another big problem is air pollution. It’s getting worse because of wildfires and the use of oil and coal. What’s more, climate change makes Beijing’s pollen (花粉) seasons longer and worse. The spring pollen season in Beijing in 2024 probably started on March 15th. Its 2025 spring pollen came 4 to 7 days earlier than in 2024. When thunderstorms come, they break pollen into very small pieces. These small pieces easily get into people’s noses and throats, which causes breathing problems. All these changes are especially bad for children and old people. The World Health Organization (WHO) has worked with countries. They want to build healthy systems that are good for the environment. This includes training doctors, providing good medical machines and making low-carbon projects. For example, some countries are using renewable energy like solar power to supply electricity to hospitals so as to cut pollution. Nowadays, countries around the world are making efforts for this. By joining efforts in energy, environmental protection and public health, the world can be better. 1．The number of Chinese people affected by floods in Paragraph 2 is mentioned to ________? A．show that people hate living in flood areas B．show floods’ great harm to people C．compare the numbers between 2024 and 2025 D．show that China has more floods than other countries 2．Why has air pollution become more serious? A．Because floods break houses. B．Because air pollution changes the season. C．Because wildfires happen and oil and coal are used. D．Because polluted air leads to lung disease. 3．When did Beijing’s 2025 spring pollen season most likely start? A．On March 10th.B．On March 15th. C．On March 25th. D．On April 5th. 4．What does the underlined word “renewable” in Paragraph 4 mean? A．Relative. B．New. C．Expensive. D．Green. 5．What is the best title for the passage? A．Climate Change and Health Problems. B．How to Stop Extreme Weather. C．How to Deal with Air Pollution. D．The World Health Organization.

The caretakers and teachers in the school are from a specialized team, and the students there are orangutans (猩猩) whose parents have gone missing, making it one of the most unusual schools in the world. The orangutans aged from 2 to 8 years old are divided into five groups according to their skills. They are looked after by the team who feed the babies and teach the older ones to start feeding themselves. There are often problems in the beginning. For example, there was a lesson about how to break open a coconut to drink the milk inside. Several young orangutans couldn’t do that and they got very angry about the whole thing. Of course, as in any social group, the orangutans have to learn to get on with each other. There are the usual arguments over food when one orangutan doesn’t get what he or she wants. However, with the care of the trainers, they gradually learn to accept each other. In one of the lessons, the trainers teach young orangutans to climb trees. This is an important skill they need to learn. Some of the orangutans in particular were really scared. It took them a long time to get the courage to climb up and swing from a branch (树枝), but when they finally did it, they were so satisfied with themselves! The goal of the “education system” is to train the orangutans to be able to live in the wild again and look after themselves. They won’t have to stay at school forever. After the older orangutans are set free into the forest, there is no more connection with the people from the school. They now have to live as wild orangutans again and be accepted by the other orangutans who are already there. The day when they say goodbye is a difficult one. However, the trainers are happy that their job is done. They have successfully taught young orangutans how to live in the wild again—where they belong. 1．Where is the orangutan school? A．In a forest. B．By a lake. C．In a zoo. D．In a laboratory. 2．What do orangutans learn to do in the school? A．Fight to live. B．Be good with each other. C．Make useful tools. D．Feed babies on their own. 3．How did the young orangutans feel after learning to climb trees? A．Surprised. B．Relaxed. C．Tired. D．Happy. 4．Why is the “education system” set up for orangutans? A．To offer them an easy life. B．To train them to be independent. C．To free them from the past. D．To keep them away from humans. 5．What can be a suitable title for the text? A．A Special Forest Team B．Wildlife Schools in the World C．A School with a Difference D．Courses for Smart Orangutans 【答案】1．A 2．B 3．D 4．B 5．C 【导语】本文主要介绍一所特殊的学校——猩猩学校。 1．细节理解题。根据“a big riverside school in the forest of Borneo comes to life”可知，是位于婆罗洲森林里的一所大型河畔学校，故选A。 2．细节理解题。根据“Of course, as in any social group, the orangutans have to learn to get on with each other.”可知，就像在任何社会群体中一样，这些猩猩也必须学会彼此相处。故选B。 3．细节理解题。根据“It took them a long time to get the courage to climb up and swing from a branch (树枝), but when they finally did it, they were so satisfied with themselves!”可知，这些年轻的猩猩在学会爬树之后对自己感到非常满意。故选D。 4．细节理解题。根据“The goal of the ‘education system’ is to train the orangutans to be able to live in the wild again and look after themselves.”可知，“教育系统”的目标是训练这些猩猩能够重新回归自然环境，并能够独立生存。故选B。 5．最佳标题题。全文围绕猩猩学校的特殊性展开，选项C“一所与众不同的学校”符合主题，故选C。 Construction (建筑) is one of the biggest users of energy and one of the biggest polluters. According to AI Magazine, construction is responsible for using 38% of world energy. The building part alone takes up almost 55% of final energy use and 33% of greenhouse gases. It’s also well known that steel produces too much material waste in building construction. Because of this big challenge, the future of sustainable (可持续的) construction may lie with AI. AI is able to study building efficiency (效率) performance by grouping data to find the best chances for sustainable material usage. With a tool like AI, the future of sustainable construction could progress much faster than in the past. Besides, AI helps architects (建筑师) work with new tools and sustainable materials to create our better buildings and cities of the future. For example, construction 3D printing guided by AI can offer better choices for building materials to save money, and map out how construction materials could be recycled. In a professional article, AI is praised as a tool for sustainable construction, “In recent years, AI has become a promising tool for construction. AI can examine a large number of data sets on weather conditions and help to make full use of building systems for energy efficiency, water protection and other goals.” AI can be used to speed up the future of sustainable construction to set standards for the industry, and make construction more efficient and affordable. Like any other computer, AI is a tool that is particularly good at studying data sets, but for the moment it still requires smart and ethical (有道德的) human beings to lead its work. All of that has to be done with respect for humans, so it’s really up to us to make it work. 1．How is paragraph 1 developed? A．By listing numbers. B．By telling stories. C．By expressing feelings. D．By making comparisons. 2．How can AI help architects? A．Produce sustainable steel. B．Draw maps of dream cities. C．Invent recyclable 3D printers. D．Choose sustainable materials. 3．Which best explains the underlined word “promising” in paragraph 3? A．Facing challenges. B．Needing improving. C．Taking years to grow. D．Having a bright future. 4．What does the writer suggest in the last paragraph? A．It’s difficult to develop AI. B．Humans’ future depends on AI. C．It’s humans’ duty to guide AI. D．Humans and AI should work together. 5．What is the text mainly about? A．AI recycles construction wastes. B．AI may take the place of architects. C．AI helps sustainable construction. D．AI speeds sustainable development. 【答案】1．A 2．D 3．D 4．C 5．C 【导语】本文主要介绍人工智能在建筑业的应用。 1．细节理解题。根据“According to AI Magazine, construction is responsible for using 38% of world energy. The building part alone takes up almost 55% of final energy use and 33% of greenhouse gases.”可知，第一段通过具体数据（如38%、55%、33%）说明建筑业在能源消耗和污染方面的严重性，故选A。 2．细节理解题。根据“AI is able to study building efficiency (效率) performance by grouping data to find the best chances for sustainable material usage.”可知，人工智能能够通过对数据进行分类分析来研究建筑的能效表现，从而找到最有利于可持续材料使用的最佳方案。故选D。 3．词句猜测题。根据“In recent years, AI has become a promising tool for construction. AI can examine a large number of data sets on weather conditions and help to make full use of building systems for energy efficiency, water protection and other goals.”可知，人工智能能够分析大量有关天气状况的数据，并有助于充分利用建筑系统以实现节能、节水等目标。所以是极具前景，故选D。 4．推理判断题。根据“Like any other computer, AI is a tool that is particularly good at studying data sets, but for the moment it still requires smart and ethical (有道德的) human beings to lead its work. All of that has to be done with respect for humans, so it’s really up to us to make it work.”可知，就像其他任何计算机一样，人工智能也是一种特别擅长处理数据集的工具，但目前它仍需要聪明且有道德意识的人类来引领其工作。所有这些工作都必须以尊重人类为前提，所以实际上要让其发挥作用，还得靠我们自己。由此可知，作者认为引导人工智能是人类的职责所在。故选C。 5．主旨大意题。本文主要介绍人工智能在建筑业的应用，选项C“人工智能助力可持续建筑”符合主题，故选C。 In the early 1900s, Austrian scientist Karl Von Frisch discovered the “waggle dance” of honey bees. They dance to communicate where to find food showing an advanced form of communication. His discovery suggested that bees seem to “think” much like humans. Bees can count up to four and even use knowledge learned in one situation in new ones. This amazing ability they have is similar to that of a few mammals (like dolphins, rats, and some monkeys)—metacognition (元认知). Studying bees’ brains is challenging, but scientists have found ways. One such scientist is Clint Perry from Queen Mary University of London. He designed experiments (实验) where bees chose between two spots, one above and one below a black bar. If they landed above, they got a sweet drink below a terrible one. Perry made the test easier or harder by moving the landing spots further from or closer to the black bar. Perry found that bees avoided difficult tests and tried when it was easy, suggesting they can judge (判断) their chances of “passing”. This ability to make decisions according to their chances of success before is similar to how humans choose whether to take a test. However, Perry admits we can’t be sure if bees are truly judging by their own knowledge or just avoiding an unpleasant taste. Although there is much uncertainty, the discovery of metacognition in bees opens up new possibilities. It suggests that bees’ tiny brains may be quite capable (有能力的). It could be that skills such as simple math and navigation take far less actual brainpower than we thought. While bees aren’t as smart as mammals in memory and language, studying their brains could help us understand how our own brains process information. We may also have to rethink how we view the rest of the insect world. There are an awful lot of small insects flying around in the garden and crawling underground. Who knows what those tiny minds might be capable of? 1．Why do bees do the “waggle dance”? A．To count numbers. B．To show their amazing dancing skill. C．To relax themselves. D．To communicate the location of food. 2．What may Clint Perry’s experiments suggest about bees? A．They are more intelligent than monkeys. B．They prefer sweet drinks to terrible ones. C．They can judge their chances of success in a task. D．They have excellent memory and language skills. 3．What is the value of studying bees’ brains? A．It helps us study human brains. B．It reminds us to protect animals. C．It improves our own math abilities. D．It shows bees are our good friends. 4．Why does the writer end the text with a question? A．To add information about bees. B．To get readers interested in insects. C．To show doubts about the research. D．To express opinions about animal testing. 5．What is the text mainly about? A．Bees’ special communication skills. B．How bees process important information. C．The interesting “waggle dance” of bees. D．Bees’ surprising abilities and intelligence. 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．A 4．B 5．D 【导语】本文主要介绍了蜜蜂令人惊奇的能力。 1．细节理解题。根据“They dance to communicate where to find food showing an advanced form of communication”可知蜜蜂跳舞是为了交流在哪里可以找到食物。故选D。 2．细节理解题。根据“Perry found that bees avoided difficult tests and tried when it was easy, suggesting they can judge (判断) their chances of ‘passing’.”可知他发现，蜜蜂会避开困难的测试，在容易的时候尝试，这表明它们可以判断自己“通过”的机会，即它们可以判断自己在任务中成功的机会。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据“studying their brains could help us understand how our own brains process information.”可知研究它们的大脑可以帮助我们了解我们自己的大脑是如何处理信息的。故选A。 4．推理判断题。根据“Who knows what those tiny minds might be capable of?”可知谁知道这些昆虫的脑袋能做什么，通过这个问题让读者对昆虫感兴趣。故选B。 5．主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了蜜蜂令人惊奇的能力。故选D。 In many cases, you may find yourself or somebody faking (假笑) a smile in photos. Why can one easily discover a fake smile and why does it seem so difficult to give a real smile in photos? Scientists have found that a real smile is featured by two main muscle (肌肉) movements. When we smile, we lift our mouth upwards and cause the skin around our eyes to gather into folds. These muscle movements are usually absent in the case of a forced smile, especially when the smile is small. Our brains are highly skilled at distinguishing the differences in muscle movements. That’s why though trying to fake a real smile can be hard, discovering it on someone else is a piece of cake. One of the most common reasons why you look unnatural in photos is an increased awareness (意识) of your appearance. The worry about posture, hair, and makeup can add to the stress, killing the chances of a real smile. A smile looks best when it comes naturally. Warm and welcoming smiles come along with warm and welcoming body language, but when you’re in front of the camera, trying too hard to perform can make your body language appear stiff (僵硬的) and far from welcoming. Besides, facial expressions are not always understood in the same way. A smile can mean differently in different cultures. For example, a wide smile that seems welcoming to some may appear fake and dishonest. This may also influence how people feel about your smile in photos. However, we shouldn’t let this trouble us too much. So, if you want to smile naturally before the camera, perhaps the simplest trick is to give your brain a real reason to feel happy. Maybe recall a joyful moment or just think back to a funny story you read...that should work! 1．What is a real smile connected with? A．Personal characters. B．Educational backgrounds. C．Muscle movements. D．Professional achievements. 2．What does the underlined word “distinguishing” mean in paragraph 2? A．Clearing. B．Telling. C．Spreading. D．Forgetting. 3．What is a reason for people’s unnatural smiles? A．They fail to hide their feelings. B．They are tired of taking photos. C．They care too much about their looks. D．They are weak in performing tricks. 4．What may help you give a real smile according to the writer? A．Recalling a strange story. B．Practicing smiles in the mirror. C．Improving your expression abilities. D．Thinking of a humorous moment. 5．What can be a suitable title for the text? A．How can we turn the fake into the real? B．How can we fake a real smile? C．Why is it hard to smile naturally in photos? D．What is needed to take good photos? 【答案】1．C 2．B 3．C 4．D 5．C 【导语】本文主要介绍了为什么在照片中给人一个真正的微笑看起来如此困难。 1．细节理解题。根据“Scientists have found that a real smile is featured by two main muscle (肌肉) movements.”可知真正的微笑有两个主要的肌肉运动。故选C。 2．词义猜测题。根据“Our brains are highly skilled at distinguishing the differences in muscle movements”可知我们的大脑非常善于区分肌肉运动的差异，故此处划线部分意为“区分”，和telling意义相近。故选B。 3．细节理解题。根据“One of the most common reasons why you look unnatural in photos is an increased awareness (意识) of your appearance”可知在照片中看起来不自然的最常见原因之一是对自己外表的认识提高了。故选C。 4．细节理解题。根据“if you want to smile naturally before the camera, perhaps the simplest trick is to give your brain a real reason to feel happy. Maybe recall a joyful moment or just think back to a funny story you read”可知如果你想在镜头前自然地微笑，也许最简单的技巧就是给你的大脑一个真正的快乐理由，也许回忆起一个快乐的时刻，或者只是回想一下你读过的一个有趣的故事。故选D。 5．最佳标题题。本文主要介绍了为什么在照片中给人一个真正的微笑看起来如此困难，以选项C“为什么在照片中很难自然地微笑”为标题最合适。故选C。 A garden is much more than just creating a beautiful environment. It can be a way to save or even make money and, more than that, it can be a place where you can express yourself. For me, it’s a bit of all these things. I know it may sound strange for a 13-year-old girl to be interested in gardening, but I have always been and I would love to make a career (职业) out of it. I have learned many things these past few years. I have been reading about and doing some gardening. So, here is my top advice about gardening. First, you do not need to spend a lot of money to have a beautiful garden. Some of the gardens that I think are the prettiest are just lines of plants. There aren’t many garden decorations (装饰) and pathways. It’s just beautiful plants with fruits and vegetables. We can also find many useful things for free, from pieces of old wood to old pots and pans. Or, we can build things for free from materials that other people have thrown away. If you just remember that planting what is more than you need will take the stress away of losing some plants, you will save yourself a lot of worry, too. Besides, you need to ask yourself which plants produce enough food to make them worth growing. I actually sat down and did the maths on that one this spring. It amazed me what some plants were worth. A tomato, for example, can produce £50-£150 worth of fruit. It takes up a lot of space but that’s a lot of money coming out of a 50-pence seed (种子)! So if I had known earlier what each plant could save us, I would have told my parents to fill our garden with different plants. And finally, gardening doesn’t have to be all or nothing. But then I guess that’s more of a personality weakness than anything. I struggle with doing things a little at a time. Once I decide to do something, I usually devote every waking hour to it for a little while and then get tired. So it’s okay to just have one tomato plant, and it’s okay to have an off year. It will save you a lot of stress. 1．What does the writer want to tell us about gardening in paragraph 1? A．The gardeners can make much money. B．It’s just about creating a beautiful place. C．The most important is to express yourself. D．It means different things to different people. 2．How would the writer describe her favorite garden? A．Simple. B．Expensive. C．Magic. D．Creative. 3．What advice does the writer give us about gardening? A．Use what we can find around us. B．Try to make a career out of it. C．Ask other gardeners to give help. D．Spend as much time as we can. 4．What can we learn about the writer’s gardening experience? A．She wants to grow everything. B．She did everything right. C．She has a lot of fun in doing it. D．She needs to work harder. 5．What does the underlined word “devote” mean in the last paragraph? A．Waste. B．Spend. C．Change. D．Count. 【答案】1．D 2．A 3．A 4．C 5．B 【导语】本文介绍了作者对园艺的看法，作者也对园艺提供了一些建议。 1．推理判断题。根据“For me, it’s a bit of all these things. I know it may sound strange for a 13-year-old girl to be interested in gardening, but I have always been and I would love to make a career (职业) out of it.”可知，园艺对作者来说，有着重要的意义。故可推知，作者在第一段告诉我们园艺对不同的人意味着不同的东西。故选D。 2．推理判断题。根据“Some of the gardens that I think are the prettiest are just lines of plants. There aren’t many garden decorations (装饰) and pathways. It’s just beautiful plants with fruits and vegetables.”可推知，作者描述的最喜欢的花园是简单的。故选A。 3．推理判断题。根据“We can also find many useful things for free, from pieces of old wood to old pots and pans. Or, we can build things for free from materials that other people have thrown away.”可推知，作者建议利用周围能找到的东西。故选A。 4．推理判断题。根据“I know it may sound strange for a 13-year-old girl to be interested in gardening, but I have always been and I would love to make a career (职业) out of it.”以及“It will save you a lot of stress.”可推知，她做这件事很开心。故选C。 5．词句猜测题。根据“Once I decide to do something, I usually devote every waking hour to it for a little while and then get tired.”可知，一旦作者决定做某件事，通常会很投入，然后就会感到疲倦。因此“devote”与“Spend”语义相近。故选B。 【热点话题练习】 In the busy center of Shanghai, near Jing’an Temple, there is a lively canteen (食堂) at noon. The Tongxin Canteen offers over 60 different dishes that change every day for people to enjoy. Such a canteen was created to provide healthy and cheaper meals to the elderly, making sure they receive proper nutrition. The Shanghai government planned to build 200 new community (社区) canteens from 2019 to 2021, bringing the total to 1,608 by the end of the year. A simple meal here, including one meat dish and two plates of vegetables, costs less than 20 yuan, which is much cheaper than other restaurants. All meals are prepared freshly in local restaurants. These community canteens not only benefit (使收益) the elderly but also bring convenience for the young. Chen Luo, who works nearby, used to depend on online food services for lunch, but her parents care about the nutrition and quality. However, she didn’t have time to cook for herself. “I would spend two hours cooking and cleaning up just for a 10-minute meal,” she said. The community canteen is a perfect place for her. The government supports these canteens in different ways, such as offering rent-free (免租) space or cutting down money for water and electricity. The government allows them to offer prices 20% lower than the market rate (利率). While the canteens mainly serve older people during morning and afternoon, it welcomes people of all ages at other times. Such community canteens have become so popular that they are now welcomed on social media like WeChat. 1．What does the underlined word “nutrition” in Paragraph 2 mean? A．low price B．good looks C．short distance D．healthy diet 2．What is the advantage of eating at the canteen compared to other restaurants? A．The food is different and changes every day. B．The meals are freshly prepared. C．The lower price is the main advantage. D．The canteen welcomes people of all ages. 3．What does the underlined word “them” refer to? A．the different ways B．the elderly people C．these canteens D．the market rates 4．From the passage, who is more likely to spread the popularity of a community canteen? A．People who like to order food online. B．People who don’t care about the quality of food. C．People who have never visited a community canteen. D．People who have tried the community canteen and think it’s helpful. 5．What is the best title for the passage? A．The Government Supports for Community Canteens B．Cheaper and Healthy Meals Only for Old People C．A Perfect Solution for the Young Office Workers D．Community Canteens Benefit People of All Ages 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．C 4．D 5．D 【导语】本文介绍了上海的社区食堂，这些食堂不仅为老年人提供健康且价格低廉的餐食，还为年轻人带来了便利，受到了社会各界的欢迎。 1．词句猜测题。根据文章第二段“Such a canteen was created to provide healthy and cheaper meals to the elderly, making sure they receive proper nutrition.”可知，这样的食堂是为了给老年人提供健康且价格低廉的餐食，确保他们得到适当的营养，由此推断“nutrition”意为“健康饮食”。故选D。 2．细节理解题。根据文章第三段“A simple meal here, including one meat dish and two plates of vegetables, costs less than 20 yuan, which is much cheaper than other restaurants.”可知，与其它餐馆相比，在食堂吃饭的价格优势更明显。故选C。 3．词句猜测题。根据文章第五段“The government supports these canteens in different ways, such as offering rent-free space or cutting down money for water and electricity. The government allows them to offer prices 20% lower than the market rate.”可知，政府以不同的方式支持这些食堂，如提供免租空间或减少水电费，政府允许它们以低于市场价20%的价格提供餐食，由此推断“them”指代的是“these canteens”。故选C。 4．推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Such community canteens have become so popular that they are now welcomed on social media like WeChat.”可知，这样的社区食堂在社交媒体上很受欢迎，由此推断尝试过社区食堂并认为它有帮助的人更有可能传播社区食堂的受欢迎程度。故选D。 5．最佳标题题。文章主要介绍了上海的社区食堂，这些食堂不仅为老年人提供健康且价格低廉的餐食，还为年轻人带来了便利，受到了社会各界的欢迎，因此最佳标题为“社区食堂惠及各年龄段的人”。故选D。 Surfing is a kind of water sport. Surfers use a surfboard to catch and ride the breaking waves. Surfing started in the Polynesian (波利尼西亚) islands of the Pacific Ocean as well as West Africa and Peru. When Polynesians first went and lived in Hawaii (夏威夷) more than 800 years ago, they brought their love of surfing with them. Surfing was more than a sport to the early Hawaiians. It was an important part of their culture. Hawaiians carved (雕刻) surfboards from the wood of special trees. The first boards were about 3 to 7 meters long and weighed more than 50 kilos. After World War II, plastic foam (塑料泡沫) boards appeared and the shape improved. Today’s surfboard is about 1.5 to 2.7 meters long and 11 to 26 kilos. Surfboards come in many different kinds, including shortboards, longboards, and fun boards. Surfing was brought to the Western world in the early 20th century. In recent years, surfing has become popular among Chinese young sport lovers. China set up its national surfing team in 2018. In March 2024, a 15-year-old girl called Yang Siqi, from Sichuan Province, became China’s first Olympic surfer. Surfing is not only about riding waves but about connecting with the ocean and having fun. It’s a sport that needs physical strength, balance (平衡感) and a love for the water. So, if you ever get the chance, give it a try! 1．Surfing started in ________. ①Peru    ②West Africa    ③the Polynesian islands of the Pacific Ocean A．①② B．①③ C．②③ D．①②③ 2．The first boards are ________ and ________ than today’s. A．longer, wider B．wider; heavier C．longer, heavier D．thicker, longer 3．What is true about paragraph 4? A．Chinese are all interested in surfing now. B．China has set up its national surfing team for 10 years. C．Surfing didn't become popular in Western world until the 19th century. D．Yang Siqi was 15 years old when she became China's first Olympic surfer. 4．Which of the following best shows the structure (结构) of the text? A．B． C． D． 5．Who is the text mainly written for?

Today’s surfboard is about 1.5 to 2.7 meters long and 11 to 26 kilos.”可知，最初的冲浪板长约3到7米，重50多公斤，而现在的冲浪板长约1.5到2.7米，重11到26公斤。所以最初的冲浪板比现在的更长、更重，故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据文章第四段“In March 2024, a 15-year-old girl called Yang Siqi, from Sichuan Province, became China’s first Olympic surfer.”可知，2024年3月，来自四川的15岁女孩杨思琪成为中国首位奥运冲浪选手，D选项表述正确。故选D。 4．篇章结构题。文章第一段总述冲浪是一种水上运动；第二、三、四段分别介绍了冲浪的起源、冲浪板的发展、冲浪在中国的流行情况；第五段总结冲浪不仅是骑浪，还与海洋有关且很有趣，是一项需要体力、平衡感和对水的热爱的运动。所以文章结构为总分总的结构，P1为总述，P2、P3、P4为分述，P5为总结，故选A。 5．推理判断题。文章主要介绍了冲浪这项水上运动，包括其起源、冲浪板的发展、在中国的流行情况以及运动特点等，所以这篇文章主要是写给体育爱好者的，故选B。 The biggest influence that technology has on family time is the way it changes how families spend time together. People used to spend more time with their family members before. Nowadays, with children (and the parents, too) spending more time texting, playing video games on smart phones, when will the family find time to bond (培养感情) and create lasting memories together? By the end of a long day at work or school, members of the family want to relax. And now technology use is widespread (普遍的) across the country, normally our “relaxing” is also known as spending time on smart phones. Not only is the amount of family time affected by technology, but also the quality. Technology can affect the quality in different ways. For example, family members can be distracted (分心的) by their phones while having dinner together. If “family time” means everyone sitting in the same room while playing online, what value is there? Personal communication is key to time well spent with loved ones. Families don’t even need to have something special to do while together. If they simply ask each other how their day is and simply have a nice dinner together, family bonds will get better. When technology becomes a focus, quality time for families goes down, which affects everyone’s life. Lack of family communication causes the family’s unity to weaken, and each of the family will be influenced in different ways. Children are more likely to develop unhealthy habits when they fail to communicate with their parents. Meanwhile, parents who put work before family or pay less attention to their children’s growth are more likely to face bad parent-child relationship. Sixty-seven percent of American teens say they want to spend more time with their parents, which is rather sad. Therefore, this passage is meant to show how technology has influenced families badly. 1．What is the biggest influence that technology has on family time? A．It brings families closer easily. B．It provides more choices to play together. C．It changes the way families spend time together. D．It increases the time families spend together. 2．What do members of the family usually do to relax by the end of a day according to Paragraph 2? A．Eat dinner together. B．Listen to radio programs. C．Spend time on smart phones. D．Play a board game together. 3．According to Paragraph 3, we can know that technology ________. A．makes us put work before family B．affects the quality of family time C．brings us convenience and happiness D．brings us more development 4．What’s the main idea of Paragraph 4? A．Simple games are helpful for family bonds. B．Families don’t need to do anything together. C．Personal communication is important for family time. D．Staying in the same room is necessary for family. 5．What’s the writer’s attitude (态度) towards the influence of technology? A．Agreeable. B．Worried. C．Surprised. D．Satisfied. 【答案】1．C 2．C 3．B 4．C 5．B 【导语】本文主要介绍了科技对家庭相处时间产生的不良影响，分析了其带来的变化以及对家庭关系的负面影响。 1．细节理解题。根据“The biggest influence that technology has on family time is the way it changes how families spend time together.”可知，科技对家庭时间最大的影响在于它改变了家庭成员共同度过时间的方式。故选C。 2．细节理解题。根据“By the end of a long day at work or school, members of the family want to relax. And now technology use is widespread across the country, normally our ‘relaxing’ is also known as spending time on smart phones.”可知，通常我们的“放松”就是花时间在智能手机上。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据“Not only is the amount of family time affected by technology, but also the quality. Technology can affect the quality in different ways.”可知，科技不仅影响家庭时间的时长，还影响其质量。故选B。 4．主旨大意题。根据“Personal communication is key to time well spent with loved ones.”可知，个人交流是与亲人共度美好时光的关键。故选C。 5．观点态度题。根据“Therefore, this passage is meant to show how technology has influenced families badly.”可知，这篇文章旨在展示科技对家庭的不良影响。可推知作者是持担忧态度的。故选B。 Long ago, in ancient China, there was a story about the invention of silk. People believed that silk was first invented by Leizu, the wife of the Yellow Emperor. Leizu learned how to make cocoons (蚕茧) into soft and strong cloth—silk, and it was called “China’s Gold”. Following kings’ orders, the Chinese kept the secret of making silk for centuries. But something amazing happened. During the Han Dynasty, the brave officer Zhang Qian travelled west as far as Central Asia and brought silk there. As years passed, silk became so important that the trade road from China to Europe got its name—the Silk Road. From China, people sold silk and tea. In return, they received treasures such as spices (香料), gold and silver from the West. At the very beginning, it was mainly about trade; then people began to share ideas, technologies and cultures. For example, Chinese inventions like paper-making were spread to the West, while new ideas about math and science came to China. Most importantly, the Silk Road helped different cultures learn from each other. Art, music and even language were shared along this ancient road. In places like the Dunhuang Grottoes (敦煌石窟) in China, you can see how art pieces combined Eastern and Western styles into something distinctive. It cannot be seen anywhere else. The story of the Silk Road tells us how people from faraway lands could become friends through trade and shared ideas. Today, we remember the Silk Road as one of the greatest examples of cooperation (合作) and exchange in history. It shows us how important it is to learn about and respect each other’s traditions, and that different cultures can work together to create amazing things. 1．Who invented silk in ancient China?

It’s exciting that high technology is helping students learn in powerful ways. However, teachers also have worries. For example, how can they guide students to use GenAI tools like Deepseek to learn more deeply, instead of just using them to cheat? Although their influence on education is still unsure, the use of AI in education is not new. Machine Learning, a part of AI, is very good at predicting what students are ready to learn next. For example, in an English class, it can help find out which words students have learned well and which ones they have not. This helps students avoid spending too much time on what they already know well, and it makes learning more personal. During the process, well-trained AI can see patterns in students’ use of educational software (教学软件) and let teachers know about students who may have difficulty in learning. If necessary, teachers can take proper action. GenAI will also make it possible creating intelligent (智能的) tools. Take writing in English, for example. GenAI can understand students’ writing skills as soon as they finish their writing tasks, and provide advice based on (根据) different learning styles. It also helps teachers better understand their students. Although the future with AI is not yet clear, one thing is important to remember that GenAI is another tool to help students do well. 1．How do teachers feel about GenAI?

However, teachers also have worries.”可知，高科技帮助学生以强大的方式学习，这令人兴奋，然而，教师也有担忧。因此教师对于GenAI的感受是既高兴又担忧。故选A。 2．词句猜测题。根据第一段“For example, how can they guide students to use GenAI tools like Deepseek to learn more deeply, instead of just using them to cheat?”可知，他们如何引导学生更深入地使用像Deepseek这样的GenAI工具来学习，而不是仅仅用它们来作弊呢？再根据第二段“Although their influence on education is still unsure, the use of AI in education is not new.”可知，虽然它们对教育的影响尚不确定，但人工智能在教育中的应用并不新鲜。由此可推测their指代的是上文提到的GenAI tools。故选C。 3．推理判断题。根据第三段“Machine Learning, a part of AI, is very good at predicting what students are ready to learn next. For example, in an English class, it can help find out which words students have learned well and which ones they have not. This helps students avoid spending too much time on what they already know well, and it makes learning more personal.”可知，机器学习是人工智能的一部分，它非常擅长预测学生接下来准备学习什么，例如，在英语课上，它可以帮助学生找出哪些单词学得好，哪些单词学得不好，这有助于学生避免在已经掌握的知识上花费太多时间，使学习更加个性化。由此可推测作者提到学生学习英语单词是为了举例说明人工智能如何帮助个性化学习。故选D。 4．细节理解题。根据第五段“GenAI can understand students’ writing skills as soon as they finish their writing tasks, and provide advice based on different learning styles. It also helps teachers better understand their students.”可知，GenAI可以在学生完成写作任务后立即了解他们的写作技能，并根据不同的学习风格提供建议，它还帮助教师更好地了解他们的学生。因此GenAI可以帮助教师更好地了解学生的学习情况。故选D。 5．推理判断题。根据第一段“For example, how can they guide students to use GenAI tools like Deepseek to learn more deeply, instead of just using them to cheat?”以及全文内容可知，文章主要讨论了GenAI在教育中的应用，特别是对教师如何引导学生使用GenAI工具进行深入学习，而不是仅仅用来作弊的担忧，因此英语教师可以从这篇文章中获得最多的帮助。故选B。 What is the best language for learning math? Hint (提示): You are not reading it. Chinese, Japanese and Korean all have simpler number words. They express math concepts (概念) more clearly than English. The language gap has drawn lots of attention. Several recent studies have linked weaker math abilities in English-speaking children to English number words. Chinese, for example, has just ten basic number words. English, however, has more than two dozen. The trouble starts at “11”. English has a word (“eleven”) for that number. Chinese, Japanese and Korean have words that can be translated as “ten-one”—spoken with the “ten” first. That makes it easier for children to understand the place value (位值). Students can easily see the number system is based on units of 10. English number words over 10 don’t make the place value clear. Words for numbers 13 to 19 change the order of the ones and tens. Children are more likely to confuse 17 with 71. Therefore, children working with English number words have a harder time doing complex calculations. They make more mistakes. It also feels more natural for Chinese speakers than for English speakers to use the “make-a-ten” method. When adding two numbers, Chinese students often break down the numbers into parts and regroup them into tens and ones. For example, 9 plus 5 becomes 9 plus 1 plus 4. This method greatly helps students work out math problems. Many teachers in America are teaching their students the “make-a-ten” method. However, they are having a hard time because of the confusing English number words. Now, you should feel lucky that you are learning math in China. Thanks to your mother language, all the math problems have become less difficult and less confusing. 1．According to the article, several recent studies have found a relationship between English number words and ________. A．weaker math abilities in young learners of English B．stronger math abilities in young learners of English C．weaker math abilities in English-speaking children D．stronger math abilities in English-speaking children 2．According to the article, how many basic number words are there in English? A．Ten. B．Eleven. C．More than a dozen. D．More than two dozen. 3．We can learn from the first three paragraphs that ________. A．Chinese is the world’s best language for learning math B．English is the world’s worst language for learning math C．Chinese number words over 10 make the place value clear D．Japanese is a better language for learning math than Korean 4．According to the article, if you use the “make-a-ten” method to work out math problems, 8 plus 7 will become ________. A．6+2+7 B．7+1+7 C．8+1+6 D．8+2+5 5．Which of the following can take the place of the underlined expression “thanks to” (in the last paragraph)? A．Instead of. B．Because of. C．According to. D．In addition to. 【答案】1．C 2．D 3．C 4．D 5．B 【导语】本文介绍了与英文相比，中文等语言的数字表达方式有利于数学的学习。 1．细节理解题。根据“Several recent studies have linked weaker math abilities in English-speaking children to English number words.”可知，最近的几项研究发现，英语数字词汇与英语母语儿童数学能力较弱存在关联。故选C。 2．细节理解题。根据“Chinese, for example, has just ten basic number words. English, however, has more than two dozen.”可知，英语有二十多个基本数字词汇。故选D。 3．推理判断题。根据“Chinese, Japanese and Korean have words that can be translated as ‘ten-one’—spoken with the ‘ten’ first. That makes it easier for children to understand the place value (位值).” 可知，中文、日文和韩文都有表示“十一”的词汇，其发音顺序是“十”在前，这种表达方式有助于儿童理解数位的位值概念。因此，中文中超过十的数字词汇能清晰地体现位值概念。故选C。 4．推理判断题。根据“use the ‘make-a-ten’ method...For example, 9 plus 5 becomes 9 plus 1 plus 4.”可知，利用“凑十法”可以把9+5转化为9+1+4。因此，用“凑十法”解决8+7，可以将其转化为8+2+5。故选D。 5．词句猜测题。根据“you should feel lucky that you are learning math in China. Thanks to your mother language, all the math problems have become less difficult and less confusing.”可推知，所有的数学题都变得不那么难了，也不那么令人困惑了，是因为你的母语是中文。因此because of “因为”可以替代thanks to。故选B。 Parents are important in shaping their children’s lives. They make decisions and plans for their children. However, in my opinion, teenagers over the age of 15 should be allowed to make their own decisions. To begin with, teenagers over 15 have the ability to make independent decisions. With the rapid development of information and technology, today’s teenagers have a better understanding of the world. Compared with their parents, they are knowledgeable (有见识的) at an early age. So they can make independent decisions. Making decisions helps teenagers feel confident. When teenagers are allowed to make decisions, they feel more confident in their ability to deal with problems. This can help them develop a stronger feeling of control over their lives. By making decisions, teenagers learn to be independent. If parents make decisions for their children all the time, they will never learn to be responsible for themselves. They will just depend on their parents for every choice in their lives, no matter how big or small it is. When teenagers are allowed to make decisions, they may make mistakes. But it doesn’t matter. That’s because they can learn from their mistakes and will do better next time. During the process, teenagers can develop critical (批判性的) thinking skills and problem-solving abilities. Allowing teenagers to make decisions can improve relationships between children and parents. By giving children respect, parents can show that they trust their children to make good choices. With trust and respect, children will have more communication with their parents. All in all, teenagers over 15 should be given the chance to make decisions. They have the ability to do so and that is good for them and even their parents. 1．Today’s teenagers have a better understanding of the world because of ________. A．their parents B．their school education C．the communication between friends D．the rapid development of information and technology 2．What does making decisions let teenagers become? A．Active and dependent. B．Active and worried. C．Confident and independent. D．Confident and excellent. 3．What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 5 refer to? A．Making decisions. B．Making mistakes. C．Learning from mistakes. D．Developing critical thinking skills. 4．Which of the following shows the structure of the passage? A．①②/③④/⑤⑥⑦ B．①/②③④⑤/⑥⑦ C．①/②③④⑤⑥/⑦ D．①②③/④⑤⑥/⑦ 5．What is the best title of this passage? A．Making Good Decisions B．Letting Teenagers Make Decisions C．Developing Critical Thinking Skills D．Improving Parent-Teenager Relationships 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．B 4．C 5．B 【导语】本文主要介绍了父母应该让青少年自己做决定的原因和青少年自己做决定的益处。 1．细节理解题。根据“With the rapid development of information and technology, today’s teenagers have a better understanding of the world.”可知，由于信息技术的快速发展，今天的青少年对世界有更好的理解。故选D。 2．细节理解题。根据“Making decisions helps teenagers feel confident.”以及“By making decisions, teenagers learn to be independent.”可知，做决定使青少年变得自信和独立。故选C。 3．词句猜测题。根据划线词前一句“When teenagers are allowed to make decisions, they may make mistakes.”可知，前文提到了当青少年被允许做决定时，他们可能会犯错误，it指代前一句的“making mistakes”，故选B。 4．篇章结构题。通读全文可知，第一段引入主题，提出观点；第二至六段列出五个支持理由；第七段总结全文，重申观点。故选C。 5．最佳标题题。通读全文可知，本文主张让15岁以上青少年自己做决定，并从能力、自信、独立等多个角度论证，因此选项B“让青少年做决定”适合作为文章标题。故选B。 On October 13, 2025, China’s mobile industry entered a new time. The three main telecom companies—China Mobile, China Unicom, and China Telecom—got official permission (许可) to test a new phone service across the country. This technology, called Embedded-SIM (eSIM), is an important step toward a future without physical SIM cards. People were happy about it. On the first day, almost 100,000 people signed up with China Unicom online. China Mobile had more than 150,000 sign-ups in only four hours. Now, users need to go to a store with a phone that works with eSIM to try the service; they can’t activate (激活) it online yet. An eSIM is a very small chip inside the phone. It’s different from the plastic SIM card you put in your phone. Both let you make calls, send messages and use the internet. But with a traditional SIM, you have to change the card by hand to use a different provider. An eSIM can be turned on from far away—usually by scanning a QR code—and you can switch providers online. eSIM has many advantages. It’s more convenient: no small cards to take care of, and you can add a local data plan when abroad without a new SIM. For phone makers, taking out the SIM tray (卡槽) saves space. This lets them make phones thinner, put in better batteries and protect phones better from water. It’s also safer (not easy to lose) and better for the environment (less plastic waste). Before, eSIM was used in smartwatches. Now, it works with phones like Apple, Huawei and OPPO. It will bring more convenience to millions of Chinese users. 1．How many people signed up for China Mobile’s eSIM service in four hours? A．Nearly 100,000. B．Over 150,000. C．About 200,000. D．More than 250,000. 2．What do users need to do to try the eSIM service now? A．Activate it online directly. B．Buy a new plastic SIM card first. C．Go to a store with an eSIM phone. D．Call the telecom company for help. 3．What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A．Batteries. B．Providers. C．Phone makers. D．Small cards. 4．What can we learn from the passage? A．Only China Unicom offers the eSIM service. B．Physical SIM cards will disappear immediately. C．eSIM was first used in mobile phones in China. D．eSIM is working with some popular phone brands. 5．What is the main idea of the passage? A．How to activate eSIM service in China. B．The differences between eSIM and traditional SIM. C．The history of China’s three main telecom companies. D．The start of eSIM phone service in China and its advantages. 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．C 4．D 5．D 【导语】本文主要介绍了2025年10月13日中国三大电信运营商获得eSIM手机业务测试许可，同时阐述了eSIM与传统实体SIM卡的区别、自身所具备的优势以及当前的使用情况等内容。 1．细节理解题。根据“China Mobile had more than 150,000 sign-ups in only four hours.”可知，中国移动的eSIM服务在四小时内注册人数超15万。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据“Now, users need to go to a store with a phone that works with eSIM to try the service; they can’t activate (激活) it online yet.”可知，用户现在需携带支持eSIM的手机去营业厅办理该业务。故选C。 3．词句猜测题。根据“For phone makers, taking out the SIM tray (卡槽) saves space.”可知， 对于手机制造商来说，去掉卡槽可以节省空间。这能让手机制造商制造出更薄的手机、配备更好的电池，还能更好地实现手机防水。“them”指代前文提到的手机制造商。故选C。 4．细节理解题。根据“Now, it works with phones like Apple, Huawei and OPPO.”可知，eSIM可适配一些热门手机品牌。故选D。 5．主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了中国三大电信运营商获得eSIM手机业务测试许可，同时阐述了eSIM与传统实体SIM卡的区别、自身所具备的优势以及当前的使用情况等内容。即文章主要围绕中国eSIM手机业务的启动及其优势展开。故选D。 Climate change has caused serious health problems around the world. More and more people have paid attention to the problems caused by climate change. Extreme weather events such as high temperatures, floods, and wildfires usually happen around the world. For example, there was heavy rain in Liaoning in 2024 and long hot days in the south that year. These disasters broke houses, ruined crops and made people move. In 2024, floods alone affected over 53 million Chinese people and brought big losses, which are bad for people’s lives and health. Another big problem is air pollution. It’s getting worse because of wildfires and the use of oil and coal. What’s more, climate change makes Beijing’s pollen (花粉) seasons longer and worse. The spring pollen season in Beijing in 2024 probably started on March 15th. Its 2025 spring pollen came 4 to 7 days earlier than in 2024. When thunderstorms come, they break pollen into very small pieces. These small pieces easily get into people’s noses and throats, which causes breathing problems. All these changes are especially bad for children and old people. The World Health Organization (WHO) has worked with countries. They want to build healthy systems that are good for the environment. This includes training doctors, providing good medical machines and making low-carbon projects. For example, some countries are using renewable energy like solar power to supply electricity to hospitals so as to cut pollution. Nowadays, countries around the world are making efforts for this. By joining efforts in energy, environmental protection and public health, the world can be better. 1．The number of Chinese people affected by floods in Paragraph 2 is mentioned to ________? A．show that people hate living in flood areas B．show floods’ great harm to people C．compare the numbers between 2024 and 2025 D．show that China has more floods than other countries 2．Why has air pollution become more serious?
