13-year-old Ava Dorsey is the founder of Ava’s Pet Palace, a business that sells organic dog and cat treats.“I actually had the idea when I was six with a picture I drew of a palace,”she says.It was a detailed design for dogs and cats and she had serious plans to build it one day.
Unlike most dog treats that you find in stores, dog treats sold by Ava’s Pet Palace are 100% organic, and are non-GMO(非转基因). Ava has set a goal for herself with these dog treats, and she wants every treat to be healthy, tasty, and top-quality. Seriously, some of her treats sound delicious enough for people to eat! “All of my bags now have the USDA organic stamp, and we're very excited to have gotten it because it's something I've wanted for a long time,”she says.“A lot of stores like to see organic products because customers like it, so that was really exciting.”
Ava says the biggest challenge of being a kid in business is when people don't take her seriously, but undoubtedly Ava has proved that her doubters are wrong! When asked how she defines(定义) success, Ava says,“When you hit a bump in the road, you shouldn't give up and you keep trying.”She learned that from her mom, who sounds like a smart lady! Some more things Ava has learned from her years in business: Hard work eventually pays off and there is nothing wrong with asking for help.
As far as the future of the pet treats industry goes, Ava is optimistic——but she’d also like to be an inspiration for change.“There’s not much diversity(多样性) right now, so that’s something I would love to see in the future,”says Ava.“I would also love to see more kids in this industry.There aren't many other teenagers around, and I hope that I can be an inspiration to others who hope to lead the pet industry.”
4. What can we learn about Ava’s Pet Palace from the first two paragraphs?
A. It is a palace for pets. B. It is very popular among kids.
C. It sells organic pet food. D. It designs stamps for customers.
5. What does“hit a bump in the road”in Paragraph 3 probably mean?

C. She intends to be a leading figure in the pet industry.

Have you ever found yourself in a classroom, seen a classmate yawn (打哈欠), and suddenly felt like yawning too? This common phenomenon (现象) lies beyond humans — even babies and animals like dogs and cats experience it. So what causes this behavior?
First, yawning helps our bodies get more oxygen. Our brains need lots of oxygen to work well.
When we’re tired or sit still for a long time (like during a story time), we breathe slowly. Slow breathing means less oxygen goes into our blood. Our brains notice this and say, “We need more air”. Then — yawn! We open our mouths wide, take a big breath, and pull in fresh oxygen. It also pushes out old air that our body doesn’t need. It’s like pressing a “refresh” button for your body.
Also, yawning is highly contagious. That means if you see someone yawn, you might yawn too. Why? Scientists think this might be a way we connect with each other. Long ago, when people lived in groups, yawning could say, “Let’s rest together” or “Wake up — we need to stay safe” . Today, it still makes us feel close to others. If your best friend yawns, your yawning back is like saying, “I’m with you.”
However, unlike popular belief, yawning is not only caused by sleepiness. It can also take place during moments of boredom, such as waiting in line, or surprisingly, when expecting exciting events like a birthday party or an important sports match. In these situations, a yawn may help prepare the body for upcoming changes in activity or stress levels.
So the next time you yawn, don’t feel shy! Recognize it as your body’s smart way to stay healthy. And if you see someone else yawns, go ahead and feel free to join in — it’s a harmless, shared biological experience.
8. How does yawning help our bodies?
A. It helps us communicate with animals.
B. It prevents us from getting bored in class.
C. It makes us feel more sleepy and relaxed.
D. It increases oxygen intake and removes old air.
9. What does the underlined word “contagious” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Healthy. B. Catching. C. Dangerous. D. Natural.
10. According to paragraph 4, in what situation are you most likely to yawn?
A. Running a 100-meter race. B. Taking an important exam.
C. Reading an interesting novel. D. Waiting at a railway station.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Is Yawning Shameful? B. Can You Control Your Yawn?
C. Why Do You Yawn? D. When Will You Yawn?
D
As more and more students use AI to help with schoolwork, we still aren’t sure about the effect it’s having on learning.
To look into this, researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) asked 54 people aged 18 to 39 to write three essays (文章) in 20 minutes. One group wrote all three essays with the help of popular AI chatbot ChatGPT. Another group used only the Internet for help, with AI answers turned off. And a third group used no outside sources at all. The essays were on topics about deep thinking, like whether we need to help others in order to be truly happy, or whether books and movies can truly change people’s lives.
People taking part wore special headsets that recorded their brains’ electrical activity while they wrote. Those using ChatGPT showed the lowest levels of brain connectivity, while those using only the Internet had greater brain connectivity. Those using no outside sources had the most connectivity. After they’d finished, the ChatGPT group was also the least able to repeat sentences from their essays.
Eighteen people were later called back to rewrite one of their essays. This time the groups were changed — those who had used ChatGPT before now had to write with no outside sources and those who had used no outside sources before could now use ChatGPT. It found that all nine people from the no-outside-sources group could remember all the topics they had written about before. But only three of those who had used ChatGPT could remember all of their topics. And those who had used ChatGPT before still showed weaker brain connectivity even now that they were writing without using any outside sources.
The study has not yet been checked by other experts. However, the researchers decided to share their results right away without waiting because of how important the findings may be for children’s education — and they felt the results should be seen as soon as possible.
12. Why did researchers carry out the study?
A. To test Internet’s practical value. B. To improve students’ writing skills.
C. To know AI’s effect on learning. D. To teach students to use ChatGPT.
13. What made the three groups different from each other?
A. The number of essays. B. Sources used for writing.
C. Time for writing essays. D. Topics of their essays.
14. What can be found from the further study according to paragraph 4?
A. ChatGPT users forgot more topics. B. Internet users wrote better essays.
C. No-source users repeated most essays. D. AI users had stronger brain connectivity.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Ways to Use Outside Sources.
B. Why AI Is Less Helpful to Students.
C. AI Might Decrease Learning Effect.
D. How Memory Directly Affects Writing Process.

As a single mother, I’ve never doubted my daughter Jane’s dream to be a singer on the stage. At an early age, she was crazy about singing. Whenever she had a chance, she would sing to her heart’s content. Her sweet and charming voice tended to get people around attracted to her songs.
Living in a small city, I took several odd jobs, determined to do everything in my power to support her. Soon after Jane attended school, her music teacher Mary noticed her talent by chance and volunteered to give her some guidance on how to sing. Jane practiced so hard that before long she made great progress in singing.
Unfortunately, one noon a year later, Jane was crossing the street when a careless driver knocked her down. She was rushed to hospital. When I hurried there, the doctor told me that my daughter would probably not stand on her own feet. I froze with shock, feeling as if I had been thrown into a dark world. Weak and dizzy, I was about to fall to the ground when someone took hold of me.
It was Mary, who got the news and raced here. She comforted me, saying firmly, “Grace, Jane needs you. You must stay calm and strong.” I nodded. Having calmed down, I entered the ward with Mary.
That night, Jane recovered her consciousness (知觉) and opened her eyes. Holding her hand, I said, “My dear, everything would be fine.” Mary comforted her gently, “I know you are a strong girl, Jane. Don’t worry. We’ll be standing by you.” I was heartbroken to see tears streaming down Jane’s cheeks.
After two months, we returned home from hospital. Her teachers and friends frequently visited her. Jane eventually accepted the fact that she would have to get around in a wheelchair. Never did she refer to the subject of singing again. I knew she was a nice and understanding girl, who was afraid that talking about her original dream would upset the two of us.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
One day, however, Mary came with good news.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
When the host announced it was Jane’s turn she was wheeled onto the stage.

13-year-old Ava Dorsey is the founder of Ava’s Pet Palace, a business that sells organic dog and cat treats.“I actually had the idea when I was six with a picture I drew of a palace,”she says.It was a detailed design for dogs and cats and she had serious plans to build it one day.
Unlike most dog treats that you find in stores, dog treats sold by Ava’s Pet Palace are 100% organic, and are non-GMO(非转基因). Ava has set a goal for herself with these dog treats, and she wants every treat to be healthy, tasty, and top-quality. Seriously, some of her treats sound delicious enough for people to eat! “All of my bags now have the USDA organic stamp, and we're very excited to have gotten it because it's something I've wanted for a long time,”she says.“A lot of stores like to see organic products because customers like it, so that was really exciting.”
Ava says the biggest challenge of being a kid in business is when people don't take her seriously, but undoubtedly Ava has proved that her doubters are wrong! When asked how she defines(定义) success, Ava says,“When you hit a bump in the road, you shouldn't give up and you keep trying.”She learned that from her mom, who sounds like a smart lady! Some more things Ava has learned from her years in business: Hard work eventually pays off and there is nothing wrong with asking for help.
As far as the future of the pet treats industry goes, Ava is optimistic——but she’d also like to be an inspiration for change.“There’s not much diversity(多样性) right now, so that’s something I would love to see in the future,”says Ava.“I would also love to see more kids in this industry.There aren't many other teenagers around, and I hope that I can be an inspiration to others who hope to lead the pet industry.”

【5题详解】
词义猜测题。根据文章第三段第二句“ When asked how she defines(定义) success, Ava says,‘’When you hit a bump in the road, you shouldn't give up and you keep trying.”(当被问及她如何定义成功时,艾娃说:“当你在路上遇到坎坷时,你不应该放弃,你应该继续努力。”)”和第四句话“ Some more things Ava has learned from her years in business: Hard work eventually pays off and there is nothing wrong with asking for help.(艾娃从多年的商业生涯中还学到了一些东西:努力工作最终会得到回报,寻求帮助并没有错。)”可知,Ava Dorsey 认为成功意味着面对困难时不放弃,并且学到了努力终会有回报,以及寻求帮助并不是一件坏事。“hit a bump in the road”这个短语指的是面对有挑战的情况,故选C。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段前两句话“As far as the future of the pet treats industry goes, Ava is optimistic——but she’d also like to be an inspiration for change.“There’s not much diversity(多样性) right now, so that’s something I would love to see in the future,”says Ava.(就宠物零食行业的未来而言,Ava 很乐观,但她也希望成为变革的灵感。“现在没有太多多样性,所以这是我很乐意看到的未来,”Ava 说。)”可得知,Ava Dorsey 看好宠物零食行业的未来,希望自己能给行业变化带来灵感与启示,期待行业内更多的多样性。由此可推断她希望在宠物零食行业开辟新领域使该行业呈现多样性。 故选D。

Have you ever found yourself in a classroom, seen a classmate yawn (打哈欠), and suddenly felt like yawning too? This common phenomenon (现象) lies beyond humans — even babies and animals like dogs and cats experience it. So what causes this behavior?
First, yawning helps our bodies get more oxygen. Our brains need lots of oxygen to work well.
When we’re tired or sit still for a long time (like during a story time), we breathe slowly. Slow breathing means less oxygen goes into our blood. Our brains notice this and say, “We need more air”. Then — yawn! We open our mouths wide, take a big breath, and pull in fresh oxygen. It also pushes out old air that our body doesn’t need. It’s like pressing a “refresh” button for your body.
Also, yawning is highly contagious. That means if you see someone yawn, you might yawn too. Why? Scientists think this might be a way we connect with each other. Long ago, when people lived in groups, yawning could say, “Let’s rest together” or “Wake up — we need to stay safe” . Today, it still makes us feel close to others. If your best friend yawns, your yawning back is like saying, “I’m with you.”
However, unlike popular belief, yawning is not only caused by sleepiness. It can also take place during moments of boredom, such as waiting in line, or surprisingly, when expecting exciting events like a birthday party or an important sports match. In these situations, a yawn may help prepare the body for upcoming changes in activity or stress levels.
So the next time you yawn, don’t feel shy! Recognize it as your body’s smart way to stay healthy. And if you see someone else yawns, go ahead and feel free to join in — it’s a harmless, shared biological experience.
8. How does yawning help our bodies?
A. It helps us communicate with animals.
B. It prevents us from getting bored in class.
C. It makes us feel more sleepy and relaxed.
D. It increases oxygen intake and removes old air.
9. What does the underlined word “contagious” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Healthy. B. Catching. C. Dangerous. D. Natural.
10. According to paragraph 4, in what situation are you most likely to yawn?
A. Running a 100-meter race. B. Taking an important exam.
C. Reading an interesting novel. D. Waiting at a railway station.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Is Yawning Shameful? B. Can You Control Your Yawn?
C. Why Do You Yawn? D. When Will You Yawn?
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了打哈欠这一普遍现象,分析了其补充氧气、排出废气的生理作用,解释了打哈欠具有传染性的原因,纠正了“打哈欠仅因困倦”的常见认知,并说明其在无聊或期待场景中也可能出现。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“We open our mouths wide, take a big breath, and pull in fresh oxygen. It also pushes out old air that our body doesn’t need. (我们张大嘴巴,深吸一口气,吸入新鲜氧气。它还能排出身体不需要的废气。)”可知,打哈欠能增加氧气摄入并排出废气。故选D。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段划线词后文“That means if you see someone yawn, you might yawn too. (这意味着如果你看到有人打哈欠,你可能也会打哈欠。)”可知,看到有人打哈欠,你可能也会打哈欠,说明“contagious”指的是“具有传染性的、会传染的”,与catching同义。故选B。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“It can also take place during moments of boredom, such as waiting in line, or surprisingly, when expecting exciting events like a birthday party or an important sports match. (它也可能发生在无聊的时刻,比如排队时,或者令人惊讶的是,在期待生日派对或重要体育比赛等令人兴奋的事件时。)”可知,在火车站等待(属于无聊场景)时最有可能打哈欠。故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。文章围绕打哈欠展开,先后介绍了打哈欠的生理作用、传染性原因以及不同触发场景,核心是解答“人们为什么会打哈欠”这一问题。选项C“你为什么会打哈欠?”准确概括了文章主旨,适合用作标题。故选C。

As more and more students use AI to help with schoolwork, we still aren’t sure about the effect it’s having on learning.
To look into this, researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) asked 54 people aged 18 to 39 to write three essays (文章) in 20 minutes. One group wrote all three essays with the help of popular AI chatbot ChatGPT. Another group used only the Internet for help, with AI answers turned off. And a third group used no outside sources at all. The essays were on topics about deep thinking, like whether we need to help others in order to be truly happy, or whether books and movies can truly change people’s lives.
People taking part wore special headsets that recorded their brains’ electrical activity while they wrote. Those using ChatGPT showed the lowest levels of brain connectivity, while those using only the Internet had greater brain connectivity. Those using no outside sources had the most connectivity. After they’d finished, the ChatGPT group was also the least able to repeat sentences from their essays.
Eighteen people were later called back to rewrite one of their essays. This time the groups were changed — those who had used ChatGPT before now had to write with no outside sources, and those who had used no outside sources before could now use ChatGPT. It found that all nine people from the no-outside-sources group could remember all the topics they had written about before. But only three of those who had used ChatGPT could remember all of their topics. And those who had used ChatGPT before still showed weaker brain connectivity even now that they were writing without using any outside sources.
The study has not yet been checked by other experts. However, the researchers decided to share their results right away without waiting because of how important the findings may be for children’s education — and they felt the results should be seen as soon as possible.
12. Why did researchers carry out the study?
A. To test Internet’s practical value. B. To improve students’ writing skills.
C. To know AI’s effect on learning. D. To teach students to use ChatGPT.
13. What made the three groups different from each other?
A. The number of essays. B. Sources used for writing.
C. Time for writing essays. D. Topics of their essays.
14. What can be found from the further study according to paragraph 4?
A. ChatGPT users forgot more topics. B. Internet users wrote better essays.
C. No-source users repeated most essays. D. AI users had stronger brain connectivity.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Ways to Use Outside Sources.
B. Why AI Is Less Helpful to Students.
C. AI Might Decrease Learning Effect.
D. How Memory Directly Affects Writing Process.
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. A 15. C

【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“One group wrote all three essays with the help of popular AI chatbot ChatGPT. Another group used only the Internet for help, with AI answers turned off. And a third group used no outside sources at all. (一组在流行的AI聊天机器人ChatGPT的帮助下写了全部三篇文章。另一组只使用互联网寻求帮助,关闭AI的回答。第三组则完全不使用任何外部资源。)”可知,这三组的不同之处在于写作时所使用的资料来源。故选B。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“It found that all nine people from the no-outside-sources group could remember all the topics they had written about before. But only three of those who had used ChatGPT could remember all of their topics. (研究发现,来自无外部资源组的所有九个人都能记住他们之前写过的所有主题。但在那些使用过ChatGPT的人中,只有三人能记住他们所有的主题。)”可知,从进一步的研究中可以发现,ChatGPT用户忘记了更多的主题。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是根据文章第一段“As more and more students use AI to help with schoolwork, we still aren’t sure about the effect it’s having on learning. (随着越来越多的学生使用AI 来帮助完成作业,我们仍然不确定它对学习的影响。)”,第三段“Those using ChatGPT showed the lowest levels of brain connectivity (使用ChatGPT的人表现出最低水平的大脑连接)”和第四段“those who had used ChatGPT before still showed weaker brain connectivity even now that they were writing without using any outside sources. (那些之前使用过ChatGPT的人,即使现在在没有使用任何外部资源的情况下写作,仍然表现出较弱的大脑连接。)”可知,文章围绕“AI对学习的影响”展开,通过研究,发现使用AI(如ChatGPT)可能会降低学习效果,影响大脑活动和记忆力。C项“AI可能会降低学习效果”准确概括了这一核心内容。故选C。

57. 阅读下而材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
As a single mother, I’ve never doubted my daughter Jane’s dream to be a singer on the stage. At an early age, she was crazy about singing. Whenever she had a chance, she would sing to her heart’s content. Her sweet and charming voice tended to get people around attracted to her songs.
Living in a small city, I took several odd jobs, determined to do everything in my power to support her. Soon after Jane attended school, her music teacher Mary noticed her talent by chance and volunteered to give her some guidance on how to sing. Jane practiced so hard that before long she made great progress in singing.
Unfortunately, one noon a year later, Jane was crossing the street when a careless driver knocked her down. She was rushed to hospital. When I hurried there, the doctor told me that my daughter would probably not stand on her own feet. I froze with shock, feeling as if I had been thrown into a dark world. Weak and dizzy, I was about to fall to the ground when someone took hold of me.
It was Mary, who got the news and raced here. She comforted me, saying firmly, “Grace, Jane needs you. You must stay calm and strong.” I nodded. Having calmed down, I entered the ward with Mary.
That night, Jane recovered her consciousness (知觉) and opened her eyes. Holding her hand, I said, “My dear, everything would be fine.” Mary comforted her gently, “I know you are a strong girl, Jane. Don’t worry. We’ll be standing by you.” I was heartbroken to see tears streaming down Jane’s cheeks.
After two months, we returned home from hospital. Her teachers and friends frequently visited her. Jane eventually accepted the fact that she would have to get around in a wheelchair. Never did she refer to the subject of singing again. I knew she was a nice and understanding girl, who was afraid that talking about her original dream would upset the two of us.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
One day, however, Mary came with good news.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
When the host announced it was Jane’s turn, she was wheeled onto the stage.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 One day, however, Mary came with good news. She told Jane the school music festival was to be held the next month and that her classmates all expected her to sing on behalf of her class. Jane’s eyes sparkled but responded doubtfully, “Can I...?” Mary and I immediately assured her that she could make it. In the following month, with the help of Mary, Jane kept on practicing singing. Beautiful songs echoed in our house again and smiles began to appear on her face. Finally the big day came when she could present herself.
When the host announced it was Jane’s turn, she was wheeled onto the stage. Jane was greeted with warm applause. As she began to sing, the audience got absorbed in her beautiful voice. Seconds after her performance, all the audience rose with thunderous cheers. When wheeled off stage, Jane received praise and bunches of flowers from her teachers and classmates. Jane was moved to tears. The kindness and encouragement from her teachers and classmates stimulated Jane’s enthusiasm for life, making her regain confidence in pursuing her original dream, which I will support wholeheartedly.
