I'm no exception. Looking back on last year, I felt I could do more to improve myself—so I've made three main resolutions for this year, and I plan to stick to them with hard work and clear plans. First, I want to improve my English. My biggest weakness is listening comprehension, so I will listen to English songs during morning walks and watch 10 - minute English short videos every evening. I also plan to join the school English club, where I can talk more with classmates in English and practice pronunciation. Second, I decide to keep fit. I'm not good at sports, but I know regular exercise is important. So I will run to school every morning instead of taking the bus, and play basketball with friends after class twice a week. I'll also keep a fitness journal to track my progress. Finally, I hope to be more responsible at home. My parents are always busy with work, so I will help them do housework like cleaning my room, washing dishes, and taking out the rubbish every weekend. Making resolutions is easy, but keeping them needs courage and persistence. I will write down my progress every month and ask my family to remind me when I feel lazy. I also plan to reward myself with a small gift after achieving a mini - goal. I believe with these efforts, I can achieve my resolutions and have a meaningful year. 41. What is the writer's first resolution for the new year? A. To learn a new hobby B. To improve English C. To help parents more D. To travel more often 42. How will the writer keep fit? A. By going to the gym every day B. By running to school and playing basketball C. By eating only vegetables D. By sleeping eight hours a day 43. What will the writer do to make sure he keeps his resolutions? A. Write down progress and ask family for reminders B. Forget the resolutions when he feels tired C. Change resolutions every month D. Tell no one about his resolutions B Technology is developing faster than ever, AI (Artificial Intelligence) and robots are going to shape our future in ways we can not imagine. At home, smart robots will become our most reliable helpers. They won't just clean the house or cook simple meals—they will learn our habits and preferences. For example, a robot cook will remember your favorite flavors and adjust recipes accordingly; a care robot will remind the elderly to take medicine on time and monitor their health conditions. AI will make our homes "smarter" too. You can control the lights, temperature, and even household appliances with just a voice command. If you forget to turn off the oven when going out, AI will send you an alert and turn it off automatically. In the workplace, AI and robots will take over some boring and dangerous tasks. Factory robots will make products with higher efficiency, while AI will help doctors analyze medical data to make more treatment methods. Teachers will use AI tools to create personalized learning plans for students based on their strengths and weaknesses. However, this doesn't mean humans will lose jobs—instead, we will need to learn new skills to work with AI. When it comes to transportation, self - driving cars guided by AI will be common on the roads. There will be fewer traffic accidents and the commuting(通勤) will be more efficient. You can work or relax in the car while AI handles the driving. Moreover, AI - powered public transport systems will adjust routes in real time according to passenger flow, saving people time. Of course, the development of AI and robots also brings challenges, like data security. But as long as we use these technologies wisely, they will bring more convenience and happiness to our lives. The future is coming, and it's up to us to embrace it and make the most of it. 44. What can a smart robot cook do in the future? A. Teach people how to program B. Remember the owners' favorite flavors and adjust recipes C. Drive self - driving cars D. Cure diseases with AI 45. How will AI help teachers in the workplace? A. Take over all teaching tasks completely B. Create personalized learning plans for students C. Clean classrooms every day D. Replace doctors in hospitals 46. What advantage will self - driving cars bring? A. Increase traffic accidents caused by human error B. Make commuting less efficient C. Allow passengers to work or relax during the trip D. Need constant manual control C China and Pakistan recently made a big step in space Cooperation (合作).They signed an agreement for Pakistani astronauts to visit China's Tiangong space station. This is the first time that China will help a foreign country pick and train astronauts for Tiangong. And it's the first time that Tiangong will have a non-Chinese visitor. The agreement was signed in Islamabad. Pakistani Prime Minister (总理) Shahbaz Sharif was there. The two sides will spend about a year choosing Pakistani astronaut candidates(候选人). Then, these candidates will come to China for hard and special training. After training, one Pakistani will fly to Tiangong with Chinese astronauts and stay there for a short time. This cooperation is a great example of South-South cooperation, which will boost Pakistan's space development. Since Tiangong's first part was launched (发射) in 2021, China has planned to have foreign astronauts on the station. Chinese space leaders said China is open to international cooperation. Many countries, including Pakistan, are interested. Pakistani trainees will face hard training. They must learn Chinese because it's the language used in Tiangong. They also need to get their bodies and minds ready for space. They have to learn how to live in micro gravity (微重力). After reaching Tiangong, the Pakistani astronaut will do scientific experiments(实验) made by Pakistani researchers. (     )47. What does the underlined word "boost" in the second paragraph probably mean? A. stop B. slow down C. improve D.break (     )48. Which of the following can we put in " " in the passage? A. It can encourage more countries to work together in space exploration. B. It has to send some of them to China's Tiangong space station. C. Some Pakistani astronauts can speak Chinese very well. D. China is willing to help develop Pakistan's space industry. (     )49. What can we infer from the passage? A. Pakistani astronauts will stay in Tiangong for a long time. B. Only Pakistan is interested in sending astronauts to Tiangong. C. Learning Chinese is not necessary for Pakistani trainees. D. This cooperation will have a positive influence on Pakistan's space field. (     )50. In this passage, what does the writer use to show the importance of China and Pakistan's space cooperation?

So what's going to happen then? It's pretty possible that robots and AI will change the world a lot. Also, self - driving and flying cars will come into our daily lives. However, scientists have even bigger ideas. In the video called Forward to the Future, scientists predicted what the world would be like in 2045. Dr Justin Sanchez believes we will be able to control (控制) things simply by using our mind. "Think about a world where you just use your mind to control your environment," Justin said. Scientists are working hard to make some progress. "The future has more than just that. Many other exciting things could change the buildings and other things around us," said Stefanie Tompkins. "We'll be able to build things that are very strong but not heavy," she predicted. Pam Melroy believes we're going to find that we have a very different relationship with the machines around us. "I think we'll be able to control a machine just by saying some simple words," she said. For example, to land a plane, in Pam's words, a pilot may just need to say the words "prepare for landing". Then the computer knows the steps it needs to take. Or maybe a pilot won't even be necessary. 76. What will change the world a lot in 2045? __________ will change the world a lot in 2045. 77. What's the name of the video? It's ________. 78. How many scientists gave their predictions in the video? ________ scientists gave their predictions in the video. 79.
