B One sunny morning, Tom went to a big company for a job interview. He was very nervous as he really wanted this job. When he entered the office, he saw many people waiting in line. Tom took a deep breath and joined the line. Finally, it was his turn. He walked into the office and greeted the manager. The manager, a middle-aged man with glasses, told Tom to sit down. Tom sat there, his hands shaking a little. The manager started asking him some questions. “Can you tell me something about yourself?” the manager asked. Tom took a moment to think and then began to introduce himself. He said he was a hard-working student and he had some experience in doing part-time jobs.

A week later, Tom got a call from the company. He was very excited to hear that he got the job. Now, Tom is working in the company. He is very happy and he tries his best to do his job well.

Hospital helpers are new to many people. They can help people do a lot of things. For example, they can get appointments (预约) with a doctor and see the doctor with patients. In these years, there are more and more hospital helpers in big cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. The number of old people is growing fast in these cities. Many of them don’t know how to get appointments with doctors online. And they often get lost in big hospitals when they go there. Also, their children may live far from them and can’t go to the hospital with them. So these old people have the need for hospital helpers. In fact, many young people also use helper service. And they’re usually more open and trusting. With the help of experienced hospital helpers, patients can spend less time finishing medical examinations (健康检查). And thanks to hospital helpers, patients feel warm and relaxed. However, experts say hospital helpers still need to improve their service, so people can trust them much more. Hospital helpers should be friendlier and more careful. They also need to have necessary medical knowledge. 45．What can hospital helpers do according to the passage? A．Help build new hospitals. B．Give medicine to patients. C．Check the patients for doctors. D．Go with patients to see doctors. 46．How does the second paragraph explain the need for hospital helpers?

D．By describing how to use online services. 47．Why do young people use hospital helper services more easily? A．They are always very busy. B．They live far from hospitals.

B．A new job and why it is important. C．How to help old people in cities. D．Why young people trust hospital. D With takeout services, we can have restaurant-cooked food without having to wait for hours in a restaurant. So many people like such services, especially the young. However, how many of you have thought about the dangers that food couriers (送餐员) have to face every day? To deliver (运送) the food on time, food couriers sometimes break traffic rules. They sometimes run red lights and drive on the wrong side of the road—even though they know it is dangerous to do so. However, if food couriers don’t arrive on time, some customers will give them bad reviews (评论) and they have bad influence (影响) on food couriers. Food couriers would still save us a lot of time, wouldn’t they? If we expect food couriers to be faster, we can book our meals ten or twenty minutes earlier. Life is not easy for food couriers. Your understanding may help them give up the thought of breaking traffic rules. 50．Who likes the takeout service most? A．Old people. B．Young people. C．Children.

E A new report shows that “artificial intelligence (AI)” is the hottest field for job seekers! Over half of workers looking to change jobs want to switch to AI-related roles. The report, made by a big job website in China, asked 37,980 people about their future jobs. 57% of workers want AI jobs like AI engineering because they offer higher salaries (薪水), exciting challenges, and good career growth. Searches for AI jobs grew by 200% this year compared to last year! Companies need more AI experts. Top industries workers want to join: 1. AI (49.2%) 2. New Energy (41.7%) 3. High-Tech Factories (36.3%). AI skills are important now! 45% of workers think using AI tools is a must-have skill for office jobs. 12% want to leave their jobs if their company doesn’t teach them AI. But the big problem is that there isn’t enough AI experts! By 2030, China will need 6 million AI workers, but there might be 4 million fewer people than needed. Many AI jobs require a master’s or PhD degree, but not enough students have these yet. What are schools doing? Over 500 universities in China now teach AI majors. Top schools like Tsinghua University are adding more spots for interdisciplinary talents combining AI with other subjects like medicine or design. “The prevalence of DeepSeek has accelerated the penetration of AI technologies across industries. As demand for AI talent rises, companies are increasing recruitment salaries,” Li Qiang, executive vice-president of Zhaopin, told Xinhua News Agency. Data from Zhaopin shows that in February, job openings for algorithm engineers rose 46.8 percent, machine learning specialists 40.1 percent and deep learning professionals 5.1 percent, all year-on-year increases. The average monthly salaries for these positions also increased during the same period, with algorithm engineers earning 23,510 yuan ($3,237), machine learning specialists 21,534 yuan and AI teachers 24,015 yuan, with an average monthly salary of 15,792 yuan. The number of AI teachers surged 112.4 percent in the month after Spring Festival, which had the biggest salary increase in February. Despite rising interest, the gap between market demand and AI talent cultivation persists. Wang Liang, a researcher at the Institute of Automation at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, told Xinhua News Agency that AI needs different types of talent: People who invent new AI technology. People who build real AI products. People who use AI in different industries like healthcare or farming. “In the future, the demand for AI talent will become more specialized across different levels and fields,” Wang said. “Universities should focus on differentiated AI talent cultivation when designing their programs and courses.” 55．What percentage of workers want to change to AI jobs because of better salaries and career growth? A．12.3%. B．45.4%. C．57.2%. D．49.2%. 56．Which job had the BIGGEST salary increase in February? A．AI Teachers. B．Algorithm Engineers. C．Machine Learning Experts. D．Deep Learning Professionals. 57．What does the underlined word “interdisciplinary” mean in the third paragraph? A．Focusing on one skill. B．Mixing different fields of study. C．Working alone. D．Ignoring technology. 58．What is the MAIN problem discussed in the text? A．AI jobs are too easy. B．There isn’t enough AI experts! C．All workers hate their current jobs. D．Schools are closing AI programs. 59．Why are Chinese universities creating new AI programs? A．To reduce salaries for engineers. B．To stop using AI in factories. C．To replace human teachers with robots. D．To prepare more students for high-demand AI jobs. F 阅读短文，从所给选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to choose a job?

Hospital helpers are new to many people. They can help people do a lot of things. For example, they can get appointments (预约) with a doctor and see the doctor with patients. In these years, there are more and more hospital helpers in big cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. The number of old people is growing fast in these cities. Many of them don’t know how to get appointments with doctors online. And they often get lost in big hospitals when they go there. Also, their children may live far from them and can’t go to the hospital with them. So these old people have the need for hospital helpers. In fact, many young people also use helper service. And they’re usually more open and trusting. With the help of experienced hospital helpers, patients can spend less time finishing medical examinations (健康检查). And thanks to hospital helpers, patients feel warm and relaxed. However, experts say hospital helpers still need to improve their service, so people can trust them much more. Hospital helpers should be friendlier and more careful. They also need to have necessary medical knowledge. 45．What can hospital helpers do according to the passage? A．Help build new hospitals.

B．A new job and why it is important. C．How to help old people in cities. D．Why young people trust hospital. D With takeout services, we can have restaurant-cooked food without having to wait for hours in a restaurant. So many people like such services, especially the young. However, how many of you have thought about the dangers that food couriers (送餐员) have to face every day? To deliver (运送) the food on time, food couriers sometimes break traffic rules. They sometimes run red lights and drive on the wrong side of the road—even though they know it is dangerous to do so. However, if food couriers don’t arrive on time, some customers will give them bad reviews (评论) and they have bad influence (影响) on food couriers. Food couriers would still save us a lot of time, wouldn’t they? If we expect food couriers to be faster, we can book our meals ten or twenty minutes earlier. Life is not easy for food couriers. Your understanding may help them give up the thought of breaking traffic rules. 50．Who likes the takeout service most? A．Old people. B．Young people. C．Children.

E A new report shows that “artificial intelligence (AI)” is the hottest field for job seekers! Over half of workers looking to change jobs want to switch to AI-related roles. The report, made by a big job website in China, asked 37,980 people about their future jobs. 57% of workers want AI jobs like AI engineering because they offer higher salaries (薪水), exciting challenges, and good career growth. Searches for AI jobs grew by 200% this year compared to last year! Companies need more AI experts. Top industries workers want to join: 1. AI (49.2%) 2. New Energy (41.7%) 3. High-Tech Factories (36.3%). AI skills are important now! 45% of workers think using AI tools is a must-have skill for office jobs. 12% want to leave their jobs if their company doesn’t teach them AI. But the big problem is that there isn’t enough AI experts! By 2030, China will need 6 million AI workers, but there might be 4 million fewer people than needed. Many AI jobs require a master’s or PhD degree, but not enough students have these yet. What are schools doing? Over 500 universities in China now teach AI majors. Top schools like Tsinghua University are adding more spots for interdisciplinary talents combining AI with other subjects like medicine or design. “The prevalence of DeepSeek has accelerated the penetration of AI technologies across industries. As demand for AI talent rises, companies are increasing recruitment salaries,” Li Qiang, executive vice-president of Zhaopin, told Xinhua News Agency. Data from Zhaopin shows that in February, job openings for algorithm engineers rose 46.8 percent, machine learning specialists 40.1 percent and deep learning professionals 5.1 percent, all year-on-year increases. The average monthly salaries for these positions also increased during the same period, with algorithm engineers earning 23,510 yuan ($3,237), machine learning specialists 21,534 yuan and AI teachers 24,015 yuan, with an average monthly salary of 15,792 yuan. The number of AI teachers surged 112.4 percent in the month after Spring Festival, which had the biggest salary increase in February. Despite rising interest, the gap between market demand and AI talent cultivation persists. Wang Liang, a researcher at the Institute of Automation at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, told Xinhua News Agency that AI needs different types of talent: People who invent new AI technology. People who build real AI products. People who use AI in different industries like healthcare or farming. “In the future, the demand for AI talent will become more specialized across different levels and fields,” Wang said. “Universities should focus on differentiated AI talent cultivation when designing their programs and courses.” 55．What percentage of workers want to change to AI jobs because of better salaries and career growth? A．12.3%. B．45.4%. C．57.2%. D．49.2%. 56．Which job had the BIGGEST salary increase in February? A．AI Teachers. B．Algorithm Engineers. C．Machine Learning Experts. D．Deep Learning Professionals. 57．What does the underlined word “interdisciplinary” mean in the third paragraph? A．Focusing on one skill. B．Mixing different fields of study. C．Working alone.
