Peter loves baseball. Last summer, he helped to coach a school baseball team. When he first watched the team of 12-year-olds play baseball, his first impressions (印象) were not really positive.
Some players often left as soon as they started losing. Other players paid too much attention to all their mistakes during the game or preferred to dig up the grass when they weren’t in the play. A lot of boys threw their baseball bats when they lost the catch.
While their baseball skills improved over time with more practice, there were still problems. The team had a long way to go. For example, some boys were hard on those who made mistakes. Instead of being supportive or encouraging, they blamed (责怪) each other.
Peter started one-on-one talks with each player to discuss things that he had noticed. Some were about skills like holding the bat up higher or opening their eyes when they were making a catch. But most were about staying positive and supporting each other.
Things began to change slowly. The boys began to take the duties for their play instead of blaming others for mistakes. They stayed positive even when losing. The team culture was improving.
Players began encouraging each other, high-fiving and supporting teammates. Peter was especially pleased to see some of the boys taking leadership (领导) roles and having their own one-on-one talks with their teammates.
Peter didn’t think he made huge progress in teaching the boys how to throw catch or hit better, but he was pleased that their conversations around the character led to something positive. Although the team still lost games, their character became stronger. Next season, their character will be tested again.
34. Which is one of the negative behaviors the players showed when Peter first watched them?
A. They gave up when they started losing.
B. They refused to practice baseball skills.
C. They paid no attention to their teammates.
D. They argued with the coach during games.
35. What was the main focus of Peter’s one-on-one talks with the players?
A. Improving baseball techniques.
B. Keeping a positive attitude.
C. Blaming players for their mistakes.
D. Making plans to win more games.
36. How did the players themselves help improve the team culture?
A. By studying other teams’ game videos.
B. By practicing baseball skills every night.
C. By encouraging and supporting each other.
D. By asking Peter to punish players who played poorly.
37. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Team Success: Improved Baseball Skills
B. The Real Progress: Stronger Character
C. Team Culture: Ending Teammate Blame
D. Player Growth: Taking Leadership Roles
【答案】34. A 35. B 36. C 37. B
【解析】

【37题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第四段“Peter started one-on-one talks with each player to discuss things that he had noticed. Some were about skills like holding the bat up higher or opening their eyes when they were making a catch. But most were about staying positive and supporting each other.(彼得开始与每个球员进行一对一的谈话,讨论他注意到的事情。有些是关于技巧,比如把球棒举得更高,或者在接球时睁开眼睛。但大多数都是关于保持积极和相互支持)”和第五段“Things began to change slowly. The boys began to take the duties for their play instead of blaming others for mistakes. They stayed positive even when losing. The team culture was improving.(事情开始慢慢地发生变化。男孩们开始为自己的比赛负起责任,而不是因为错误而责备别人。即使输了,他们也保持乐观。团队文化正在改善)”可知,本文主要讲的是彼得(Peter)去年夏天协助指导一支学校棒球队的经历,核心在于展现他如何通过关注球员的性格品质与心态,而非单纯提升球技,推动球队文化发生积极转变,因此B选项“The Real Progress: Stronger Character(真正的进步:更坚强的性格)”可作为最好的标题,故选B。

A new idea has become popular among people who own cats: placing orange peels (果皮) on kitchen tables. The goal is to keep cats from jumping onto these surfaces. But does this method really work? And could orange peels hurt your pet?
Most cat owners have tried things like double-sided tape, or empty bottles filled with coins to stop their cats from climbing where they shouldn’t. Now, many are saying that just laying down — orange peels can do the job and it seems to help.
Why would orange peels plague cats? Dr Nita Vasudevan, a vet (兽医), explained that the oils in orange peels give off very strong smells. These oils, which are called limonene and linalool, are so sharp that a cat’s sensitive nose finds them unpleasant.
But are oranges actually dangerous for cats? Citrus (柑橘类的) fruits generally contain essential oils and psoralens. In a lot of citrus fruits, these can make a cat’s stomach feel bad. And in some cases, they can cause more serious problems, such as weakness or shaking.
Dr Vasudevan said that the peel holds most of the harmful things, while the juicy part of the fruit is much less of a concern. Even so, she advises that it’s best not to give the cats any orange peels, since their bodies aren’t built to do with it, and even a little bit may make them feel a little uncomfortable.
What should you do if your cat does eat part of an orange? Watch for signs like drooling (流口水), vomiting, or appearing uncomfortable. Usually, most of these effects pass quickly on their own and will not worsen. If your cat stays sick or seems very tired, call your vet right away.
38. What is the main purpose of cat owners placing orange peels on kitchen tables?
A. To feed these hungry cats. B. To keep cats off the tables.
C. To make the kitchen beautiful. D. To produce good smell in the room.
39. What does the underlined word “plague” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Excite. B. Control. C. Trouble. D. Attract.
40. Why are oranges dangerous for cats according to the text?
A. They may cause cats not to eat any food.
B. They can bring sickness to cats.
C. They will make cats lose their smell forever.
D. They have harmful things that cause deafness in cats.
41. Which is the most suitable title for the text?
A. How Do People Raise Cats? B. When Will a Cat Realize a Danger?
C. What Should We Do to Feed Cats? D. Why Do Cats hate Orange Peels?
【答案】38. B 39. C 40. B 41. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章说明了橘子皮可能对猫产生的伤害,提醒人们要谨慎使用。
【38题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“The goal is to keep cats from jumping onto these surfaces.(目的是防止猫跳到这些表面上)”可知,猫主人把橘子皮放在厨房桌子上的主要目的是防止猫跳到桌子上。故选B。
【39题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段“These oils, which are called limonene and linalool, are so sharp that a cat’s sensitive nose finds them unpleasant.(这些名为柠檬烯和芳樟醇的油类气味过于刺激,猫咪敏感的鼻子会觉得不适)”以及和第五段“Even so, she advises that it’s best not to give the cats any orange peels, since their bodies aren’t built to do with it, and even a little bit may make them feel a little uncomfortable.(尽管如此,她建议最好不要给猫喂任何橘子皮,因为它们的身体无法处理,即使是一点点也可能让它们感到不适)”可知,橘子皮释放的这些气味让猫感到不适,使它困扰,结合划线词所在句“Why would orange peels plague cats?(为什么橘子皮会plague猫咪?)”可知,划线词plague表示“使困扰”,与Trouble意义相近。故选C。
【40题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Citrus (柑橘类的) fruits generally contain essential oils and psoralens. In a lot of citrus fruits, these can make a cat’s stomach feel bad. And in some cases, they can cause more serious problems, such as weakness or shaking.(柑橘类水果通常含有精油和补骨脂素。在许多柑橘类水果中,这些成分可能导致猫咪胃部不适。在某些情况下,它们还可能引发更严重的问题,例如虚弱或颤抖)”可知,橘子中的成分会导致猫胃部不适,或是引发更严重的疾病,即会给猫带来疾病,所以很危险。故选B。
【41题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“Why would orange peels plague cats?(为什么橘子皮会困扰猫咪?)”和第五段“Even so, she advises that it’s best not to give the cats any orange peels, since their bodies aren’t built to do with it, and even a little bit may make them feel a little uncomfortable.(尽管如此,她建议最好不要给猫喂任何橘子皮,因为它们的身体无法处理,即使是一点点也可能让它们感到不适)”和全文内容可知,本文主要分析说明了橘子皮对猫产生的危害及原因,所以“为什么猫讨厌橘子皮?”适合作为文章标题。故选D。

Although AI can bring people comfort it still cannot match the full abilities of a human doctor.
From social relationships to work challenges, Chinese people are turning to DeepSeek to solve different personal problems. They describe sharing their thoughts and receiving helpful advice from the popular chatbot. AI is changing the way people find mental (心理的) health support. But can AI truly take the place of a human doctor?
Around the world, 45 percent of people who needed mental treatment (治疗) in 2024 did not receive it, with difficulties including cost and a shortage of doctors, according to Daniel Lowd, a professor at the University of Oregon. He believes AI could help solve the shortage of mental health services. “If people can find some support and opinions by talking to a chatbot, then I think that’s wonderful, ”said Lowd.
Li Yong, a doctor at the Jiangsu Province Hospital, agreed with Lowd, saying that AI meets people’s needs for mental support in some ways. However, he pointed out that AI cannot completely take the place of real doctors because it doesn’t have the human side which is important for treatment. Human doctors develop a deeper understanding of people’s feelings and needs through communication, which allows them to offer more practical treatment plans.
The use of AI in mental health also raises worries over its reliability (可靠性).“AI chatbots will act as doctors if asked, without any of the training or responsibility of human doctors , ”said Richard Lachman , a professor in Canada.
Scientists believe the key to making AI mental treatment safe is proper government control. Wysa , for example, is a mental health app that provides users with conversations through an AI chatbot. In 2022 , it worked with the UK’s National Health Service, following a list of strict standards. As AI becomes more a part of our lives, understanding its effects on human mental health means finding a balance between what’s helpful and what’s dangerous.
42. What is Daniel Lowd’s attitude towards AI mental treatment?
A. Uninterested. B. Positive. C. Concerned. D. Doubtful.
43. Why can’t AI fully replace human doctors according to Li Yong?
A. AI can’t understand feelings deeply.
B. AI treatment attracts little attention.
C. AI costs patients a lot more money.
D. AI performs badly in giving advice .
44. Which of the following is TRUE about AI mental treatment?
A. It can totally function as human doctors.
B. Wysa’s users must meet a list of strict standards.
C. There’s no need to doubt or worry about its effect.
D. Government rules are necessary to ensure its safety.
45. What’s the main idea of the passage?
A. AI can be used to solve all the health problems in daily life.
B. AI cares for people’s mental health in a well-organized way.
C. AI helps mental treatment but should be properly controlled.
D. AI takes responsibility for its patients just like human doctors do.
【答案】42. B 43. A 44. D 45. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。主要探讨AI在心理健康治疗中的辅助作用、无法替代人类医生的原因及需政府规范的必要性。
【42题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“He believes AI could help solve the shortage of mental health services. “If people can find some support and opinions by talking to a chatbot, then I think that’s wonderful, ”said Lowd.(他认为人工智能有助于解决心理健康服务短缺的问题。洛德说:“如果人们能通过与聊天机器人交谈获得一些支持和建议,那我认为这很棒”)”可知,Daniel Lowd认为AI能弥补心理健康服务的不足,对AI心理治疗持积极态度。故选B项。
【43题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“However, he pointed out that AI cannot completely take the place of real doctors because it doesn’t have the human side which is important for treatment. Human doctors develop a deeper understanding of people’s feelings and needs through communication, which allows them to offer more practical treatment plans.(然而,他指出,人工智能不能完全取代真正的医生,因为它缺乏对治疗至关重要的人性化层面。人类医生通过沟通能更深入地理解患者的感受和需求,从而制定更切实的治疗方案。)”可知,Li Yong认为AI无法完全替代人类医生,核心原因是AI不能像人类医生那样深度理解情感。故选A项。
【44题详解】
细节理解题。根据第六段中的“Scientists believe the key to making AI mental treatment safe is proper government control.(科学家认为,确保人工智能心理治疗安全的关键在于适当的政府监管。)”可知,政府监管是保障AI心理治疗安全的必要条件,D项表述正确。故选D项。
【45题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知,第二段指出AI可缓解心理健康服务短缺;第三、四段说明AI因缺乏人性化、可靠性存疑,无法替代人类医生;第五段强调需政府监管以确保AI治疗安全。全文核心是“AI对心理治疗有帮助,但需合理规范”。故选C项。

Many people dream of winning the lottery (彩票). Oh, just think about the things they could do with a million dollars! Perhaps they’d buy a new house, deal in stocks or travel around the world! But there’s a difference between dreaming about such good luck and actually becoming a lottery winner. Such a moment must have been quite unbelievable for single mother Jane Surtees, who has certainly dreamed about what she would do with such big money over the years.
Shortly after hitting a £7.5 million top prize, Jane set out a plan to help orphans (孤儿) in Ethiopia. She traveled to Ethiopia’s capital, Addis Ababa, and headed straight to the Kidane Mehmet Children’s Home, which cares for 120 orphans. Because the Mehmet Children’s Home runs completely on charity, it is crowded and can only feed the kids three small meals per day. Meat is a once-a-week treat and toys and books are almost unheard-of. Jane was surprised by how satisfied the kids seemed to be living in such conditions.
Jane was especially moved by the story of 15-year-old Workeneh Fanetay. After losing his parents when he was just four, Fanctay was responsible for bringing up his two-year-old brother alone. He was one of many homeless children in the city and bought food with money he earned by working in shops and helping neighbors tidy their gardens. Thankfully, his life was altered radically due to Jane’s kindness. He joined the Children’s Home and now lives in a nice house with his brother. They plant vegetables on a piece of ground near their house and both attend school-something that will change both of their lives.
Jane is truly grateful for her good luck to win the lottery and get to know such amazing children. And the children she helped consider her as one example of the view that kindness does exist in this world.
46. What was Jane’s plan after winning the lottery? (no more than 10 words)
______________________________________________________
47. How did the kids in the Kidane Mehmet Children’s Home feel about their living conditions? (no more than 5 words)

______________________________________________________
50. What will you do if you win a million dollars in the lottery? Please explain. (no more than 25 words)

【答案】46. She planned to help orphans in Ethiopia./ To help orphans in Ethiopia. /Jane set out a plan to help orphans in Ethiopia
47. They seemed to be satisfied./Satisfied.
48. Because he had to earn money to buy food (for his brother and himself). /To earn money to buy food (for his brother and himself). /To earn money. /To buy food.

Peter loves baseball. Last summer, he helped to coach a school baseball team. When he first watched the team of 12-year-olds play baseball, his first impressions (印象) were not really positive.
Some players often left as soon as they started losing. Other players paid too much attention to all their mistakes during the game or preferred to dig up the grass when they weren’t in the play. A lot of boys threw their baseball bats when they lost the catch.
While their baseball skills improved over time with more practice, there were still problems. The team had a long way to go. For example, some boys were hard on those who made mistakes. Instead of being supportive or encouraging, they blamed (责怪) each other.
Peter started one-on-one talks with each player to discuss things that he had noticed. Some were about skills like holding the bat up higher or opening their eyes when they were making a catch. But most were about staying positive and supporting each other.
Things began to change slowly. The boys began to take the duties for their play instead of blaming others for mistakes. They stayed positive even when losing. The team culture was improving.
Players began encouraging each other, high-fiving and supporting teammates. Peter was especially pleased to see some of the boys taking leadership (领导) roles and having their own one-on-one talks with their teammates.
Peter didn’t think he made huge progress in teaching the boys how to throw, catch or hit better, but he was pleased that their conversations around the character led to something positive. Although the team still lost games, their character became stronger. Next season, their character will be tested again.
34. Which is one of the negative behaviors the players showed when Peter first watched them?
A. They gave up when they started losing.
B. They refused to practice baseball skills.
C. They paid no attention to their teammates.

A new idea has become popular among people who own cats: placing orange peels (果皮) on kitchen tables. The goal is to keep cats from jumping onto these surfaces. But does this method really work? And could orange peels hurt your pet?
Most cat owners have tried things like double-sided tape, or empty bottles filled with coins to stop their cats from climbing where they shouldn’t. Now, many are saying that just laying down — orange peels can do the job and it seems to help.
Why would orange peels plague cats? Dr Nita Vasudevan, a vet (兽医), explained that the oils in orange peels give off very strong smells. These oils, which are called limonene and linalool, are so sharp that a cat’s sensitive nose finds them unpleasant.
But are oranges actually dangerous for cats? Citrus (柑橘类的) fruits generally contain essential oils and psoralens. In a lot of citrus fruits, these can make a cat’s stomach feel bad. And in some cases, they can cause more serious problems, such as weakness or shaking.
Dr Vasudevan said that the peel holds most of the harmful things, while the juicy part of the fruit is much less of a concern. Even so, she advises that it’s best not to give the cats any orange peels, since their bodies aren’t built to do with it, and even a little bit may make them feel a little uncomfortable.
What should you do if your cat does eat part of an orange? Watch for signs like drooling (流口水), vomiting, or appearing uncomfortable. Usually, most of these effects pass quickly on their own and will not worsen. If your cat stays sick or seems very tired, call your vet right away.
38. What is the main purpose of cat owners placing orange peels on kitchen tables?
A. To feed these hungry cats. B. To keep cats off the tables.
C. To make the kitchen beautiful. D. To produce good smell in the room.
39. What does the underlined word “plague” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Excite. B. Control. C. Trouble. D. Attract.
40 Why are oranges dangerous for cats according to the text?
A. They may cause cats not to eat any food.
B. They can bring sickness to cats.
C. They will make cats lose their smell forever.
D. They have harmful things that cause deafness in cats.

Although AI can bring people comfort, it still cannot match the full abilities of a human doctor.
From social relationships to work challenges, Chinese people are turning to DeepSeek to solve different personal problems. They describe sharing their thoughts and receiving helpful advice from the popular chatbot. AI is changing the way people find mental (心理的) health support. But can AI truly take the place of a human doctor?
Around the world, 45 percent of people who needed mental treatment (治疗) in 2024 did not receive it, with difficulties including cost and a shortage of doctors, according to Daniel Lowd, a professor at the University of Oregon. He believes AI could help solve the shortage of mental health services. “If people can find some support and opinions by talking to a chatbot, then I think that’s wonderful, ”said Lowd.
Li Yong, a doctor at the Jiangsu Province Hospital, agreed with Lowd, saying that AI meets people’s needs for mental support in some ways. However, he pointed out that AI cannot completely take the place of real doctors because it doesn’t have the human side which is important for treatment. Human doctors develop a deeper understanding of people’s feelings and needs through communication, which allows them to offer more practical treatment plans.
The use of AI in mental health also raises worries over its reliability (可靠性).“AI chatbots will act as doctors if asked, without any of the training or responsibility of human doctors , ”said Richard Lachman , a professor in Canada.
Scientists believe the key to making AI mental treatment safe is proper government control. Wysa , for example, is a mental health app that provides users with conversations through an AI chatbot. In 2022 , it worked with the UK’s National Health Service, following a list of strict standards. As AI becomes more a part of our lives, understanding its effects on human mental health means finding a balance between what’s helpful and what’s dangerous.
42. What is Daniel Lowd’s attitude towards AI mental treatment?
A. Uninterested. B. Positive. C. Concerned. D. Doubtful.
43. Why can’t AI fully replace human doctors according to Li Yong?
A. AI can’t understand feelings deeply.
B. AI treatment attracts little attention.
C. AI costs patients a lot more money.
D. AI performs badly in giving advice .
44. Which of the following is TRUE about AI mental treatment?
A. It can totally function as human doctors.
B. Wysa’s users must meet a list of strict standards.
C. There’s no need to doubt or worry about its effect.
D. Government rules are necessary to ensure its safety.
45. What’s the main idea of the passage?
A. AI can be used to solve all the health problems in daily life.
B. AI cares for people’s mental health in a well-organized way.
C. AI helps mental treatment but should be properly controlled.
D. AI takes responsibility for its patients just like human doctors do.

Many people dream of winning the lottery (彩票). Oh, just think about the things they could do with a million dollars! Perhaps they’d buy a new house, deal in stocks or travel around the world! But there’s a difference between dreaming about such good luck and actually becoming a lottery winner. Such a moment must have been quite unbelievable for single mother Jane Surtees, who has certainly dreamed about what she would do with such big money over the years.
Shortly after hitting a £7.5 million top prize, Jane set out a plan to help orphans (孤儿) in Ethiopia. She traveled to Ethiopia’s capital, Addis Ababa, and headed straight to the Kidane Mehmet Children’s Home, which cares for 120 orphans. Because the Mehmet Children’s Home runs completely on charity, it is crowded and can only feed the kids three small meals per day. Meat is a once-a-week treat and toys and books are almost unheard-of. Jane was surprised by how satisfied the kids seemed to be living in such conditions.
Jane was especially moved by the story of 15-year-old Workeneh Fanetay. After losing his parents when he was just four, Fanctay was responsible for bringing up his two-year-old brother alone. He was one of many homeless children in the city and bought food with money he earned by working in shops and helping neighbors tidy their gardens. Thankfully, his life was altered radically due to Jane’s kindness. He joined the Children’s Home and now lives in a nice house with his brother. They plant vegetables on a piece of ground near their house and both attend school-something that will change both of their lives.
Jane is truly grateful for her good luck to win the lottery and get to know such amazing children. And the children she helped consider her as one example of the view that kindness does exist in this world.
