In China, some schools have made their break times longer, changing from 10 to 15 minutes.
Before, the short breaks didn’t give kids much time to play outside, especially if their classes were on different floors. Now, they are 15 minutes instead of 10. This is to help kids and teachers get outside more.
Sometimes, schools didn’t let kids go out during breaks because they were worried about safety. But now, with longer breaks, schools in cities like Beijing, Tianjin, and Qingdao want kids to get at least 30 minutes of exercise every day.
In Beijing, the longer breaks didn’t change when kids start or finish school. In some places, like Wuxi in Jiangsu province, kids have to do at least 100 minutes of exercise every day. They can’t start class too early. The goal is to give kids more time to have fun.
A school in Qingdao has fun games like jump rope and hula hoop for the breaks. They make sure every kid gets to play outside. When they checked the kids’ fitness, they found that more kids are doing well in exercise now.
39. How much longer are the break times in the schools mentioned in the article?
A. 5 minutes. B. 10 minutes. C. 15 minutes. D. 30 minutes.
40. What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Kids. B. Breaks. C. Schools. D. Classes.
41. What can we infer from the article?
A. The new break times are good for students’ health.
B. All schools in China have made their break times longer.
C. Schools in Wuxi make sure that children exercise for at least 30 minutes a day.
D. The school in Qingdao only allows students to play jump rope and hula hoop.
42. What does the underlined word “fitness” in the last paragraph probably mean?
A. Talent. B. Health. C. Hobby. D. Weight.
43 What is the best title for the text?
A. Activities in Chinese Schools. B. Chinese Schools Add Break Time.

The Magic of AI
Artificial Intelligence, or AI for short, is becoming more and more popular in our modern world and changes our lives a lot.
Firstly, AI plays an important part in our daily life. For example, smart home devices with AI (智能家居设备) can understand our orders and control (控制) the lights, temperature, and even the TV. If you say “turn on the living room lights”, the lights will be on at once. Voice helpers like Siri and Alexa are also very popular. We can ask them to play our favorite music, tell us the latest news or remind (提醒) us of important events. It makes our life much easier.
Secondly, in schools, AI is helpful, too. There are learning apps that know how we study. They can tell what we’re good at and what we need to work on. Then, they give us special lessons and exercises. This way, we can learn better and get better grades faster.
Even in hospitals, AI is doing great things. It can help doctors find out what’s wrong with patients. By looking at X-ray (X光) pictures and other medical information, AI can find problems easily and correctly.

Maybe it will take the place of people to do all kinds of jobs in the future. By then, what job can people do to make a living (谋生) ? Also, it’s not safe for people to send their personal information. So we should use it carefully.
All in all, AI is like a two-sided coin. It improves our lives in many ways, but we also have to deal with the problems it brings. We should make good use of its advantages (优点) so that it can keep helping us in a right way.
44. What can smart home devices with AI do according to Paragraph 2?
① Help with housework. ② Turn on TV. ③ Create music.
④ Turn on lights. ⑤ Report the latest news.
A. ①③ B. ②③⑤ C. ②④⑤ D. ①②⑤
45. What can AI do in hospitals according to Paragraph 4?
A. It can do what doctors do. B. It can take care of the patients.
C. It can solve all the health problems. D. It can analyze (分析) X-ray pictures.
46. Which of the following will be a problem brought by AI according to the article?
A. Some people face the problem of losing jobs because of AI.
B. People may become lazier because AI can help us in many ways.
C. It’s getting harder and harder for people to make a living because of AI.
D. Students will spend too much time on special lessons and exercises from AI.
47. Which of the following best shows the structure of this article?
A. B. C. D.
48. What does this article mainly talk about?
A. How AI works. B. The future development of AI.
C. Different kinds of AI. D. The advantages and disadvantages of AI.

1. —The food is too hot. You have put too much ________ into it.
—Well, I like hot food.
A. pepper B. yogurt C. honey D. cheese
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:——食物太辣了。你放了太多辣椒进去。——嗯,我喜欢辣的食物。
考查名词辨析。pepper辣椒;yogurt酸奶;honey蜂蜜;cheese奶酪。根据对话中“too hot”和“like hot food”的语境,“hot”在此指辣味,pepper是辛辣调料,符合句意。故选A。
2. —Do you love your parents?

A. Everything B. Nothing C. Something D. Anything
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:——你爱你的父母吗?——是的,当然。在我的生活中没有什么比他们更重要了。
考查不定代词辨析。Everything每件事;Nothing没有什么;Something某事;Anything任何事。根据“Yes, of course.”可知,表达对父母的爱,认为没有什么比父母更重要,所以用Nothing。故选B。
3. — Will Tony take part in the sports meeting?
— Yes, I think he will ________ do so because he likes doing sports very much.
A. safely B. certainly C. hardly D. luckily
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:——托尼会参加运动会吗?——是的,我想他肯定会参加,因为他非常喜欢做运动。
考查副词词义辨析。safely安全地;certainly当然,肯定;hardly几乎不;luckily幸运地。根据句意可知,此处表达的是托尼因为喜欢做运动,所以肯定会参加运动会,因此应该选择表示肯定性的副词。故选B。
4. —How do you like the chair?

A. expensive B. terrible C. comfortable D. dirty
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——你觉得这把椅子怎么样?——我认为它很棒。它坐起来很舒适,而且你坐在上面时可以移动。
考查形容词辨析。expensive昂贵的;terrible糟糕的;comfortable舒适的;dirty脏的。根据回答中“it is great”和“you can move around”的描述,可知椅子舒适且灵活,选项需为积极意义的形容词。故选C。
5. —How often do you ________ your e-friend in Germany?
—I get his e-mail twice a month.
A. look after B. hear from C. take up D. talk about
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:——你多久会收到一次来自德国网友的来信?——我每个月收到两次他的电子邮件。
考查动词短语辨析。look after照顾;hear from收到来信;take up开始从事;talk about谈论。根据答语“I get his e-mail twice a month”可知,问句询问的是收到网友来信的频率。故选B。
6. —How about going there by bus?
—We’d better not. If we take the bus, we ________ there one more day later.
A. get B. got C. will get D. gets
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——坐公交车去那里怎么样?——我们最好不要。如果我们坐公交车,我们将要再晚一天到达那里。
考查条件句的用法。在真实条件句中,if从句使用一般现在时表示假设,主句需用一般将来时(will+动词原形)表示可能的结果。此处,if从句“If we take the bus”为一般现在时,因此主句空处应填入将来时形式“will get”。故选C。
7. —Do you think I should buy the dress?
—Yeah. ________ it is expensive, it is very beautiful and special.
A. Although B. But C. Because D. So
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:——你认为我应该买这条裙子吗?——是的。虽然它很贵,但它非常漂亮和特别。
考查连词辨析。Although虽然;But但是;Because因为;So所以。根据语境,前半句“it is expensive”表示让步(尽管贵),后半句“it is very beautiful and special”是转折后的主要观点(但很漂亮),需用让步连词“Although”引导状语从句。故选A。
8. — Paul plays the violin really wonderfully!
— Of course. He is ________ in our class.
A. more outgoing B. the most outgoing C. more talented D. the most talented
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:——保罗拉小提琴拉得真棒!——当然。他是我们班上最有才华的。

In China, some schools have made their break times longer, changing from 10 to 15 minutes.
Before, the short breaks didn’t give kids much time to play outside, especially if their classes were on different floors. Now, they are 15 minutes instead of 10. This is to help kids and teachers get outside more.
Sometimes, schools didn’t let kids go out during breaks because they were worried about safety. But now, with longer breaks, schools in cities like Beijing, Tianjin, and Qingdao want kids to get at least 30 minutes of exercise every day.
In Beijing, the longer breaks didn’t change when kids start or finish school. In some places, like Wuxi in Jiangsu province, kids have to do at least 100 minutes of exercise every day. They can’t start class too early. The goal is to give kids more time to have fun.
A school in Qingdao has fun games like jump rope and hula hoop for the breaks. They make sure every kid gets to play outside. When they checked the kids’ fitness, they found that more kids are doing well in exercise now.

C. Schools in Wuxi make sure that children exercise for at least 30 minutes a day.
D. The school in Qingdao only allows students to play jump rope and hula hoop.

A. Talent. B. Health. C. Hobby. D. Weight.

【答案】39. A 40. C 41. A 42. B 43. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲的是中国一些学校延长了课间休息时间。
【39题详解】

【40题详解】
词句猜测题。根据“Sometimes, schools didn’t let kids go out during breaks because they were worried about safety.”可知,有时学校因为担心安全,不让孩子们在课间出去,所以“they”指代的是“schools”。故选C。
【41题详解】
推理判断题。根据“When they checked the kids’ fitness, they found that more kids are doing well in exercise now.”可知,当检查孩子们的体能时,发现现在更多的孩子在锻炼方面表现良好,由此可推断出新的课间休息时间对学生的健康有好处。故选A。

例文
Is AI for Homework a Good Idea?
With the development of modern science and technology, AI is playing a big role in our daily life. Some students think AI has advantages. It makes homework easier and saves a lot of time. For example, it helps us find answers quickly. However, others believe it has disadvantages. They worry we may over-rely on AI and lose problem-solving abilities. If we always use AI, we might stop thinking by ourselves.
In my opinion, AI is useful but we must use it properly. We can use it to check answers or learn new methods, but we should try to solve problems ourselves first. This way, AI becomes a tool, not a replacement.
