About 200 American high school students were in Shenzhen for cultural exchanges with Chinese teens. It’s part of the “2025 China-U.S. Youth Marching Band People-to-People Exchange China Tour”. It aimed at building bridges of understanding through music and increasing connections between the two peoples.
The tour, themed “Marching Together to a Wonderful Future,” included stops in Beijing and Shenzhen from Oct. 9 to 18. It’s part of a plan to invite 50,000 young Americans to China over five years. The U.S. students came from three schools and had a busy schedule in Shenzhen. They visited a robot company, and went to local schools, a science museum and an old town.
For many of the American teens, this is their first visit to China, and the experience has been extremely positive. “It’s really exciting. It’s so nice exploring different cultures,” said Celina Castro, a student from Clarksburg High School. “I’m really fascinated with everyone in China. Everyone is so nice.”
Her schoolmate, Bennett Goldberg, was particularly impressed after dancing with robots. “It’s really exciting, and not many people can say they dance with robots,” he said. “It makes you really hopeful about the future... I think it’s been a really unique experience.”
Goldberg also expressed his admiration for the city. “I really like the buildings. The food here is amazing.”
Looking ahead to the rest of the trip, which includes the performances with Shenzhen teenagers, Goldberg said, “I really look forward to the cultural exchanges. And I really like all the friends I’ve met while I’ve been here.”

Five years ago, Jiang Songning lost his right forearm in an accident. The boy, only 17 then, thought the music of his life had stopped.
But this year, Jiang could sit again before black and white keys. A thin, silver “hand” covered his right arm. It was a bionic (仿生的) hand. When Jiang’s mind said “move,” the fingers moved. The song was clear and sweet, and the listeners clapped with joy. Jiang said the bionic hand is almost as flexible as his left hand, with each finger able to move freely.
Traditional prosthetics (假肢) can only do certain moves, but this bionic hand can do 80 percent of what a real hand can do. And it costs only one-fifth of similar foreign products. The disabled people can try it and improve their lives.
There are many such stories. A man from Henan couldn’t walk for years. This year, he tried an exoskeleton (外骨骼). After thirty minutes of practice, he was able to walk slowly. “When I want to go forward, it gives me power. I feel I am walking by myself,” he said excitedly.
This exoskeleton not only helps people with disabilities, but is also fit for situations such as long-distance walking and mountain climbing. It is now widely used in fields including emergency rescue, forest firefighting and so on. It can greatly help people carry more, walk longer and feel less tired.
Besides the bionic hand and the exoskeleton, there are more and more AI products showing how technology can warm our daily life, especially the life of the disabled.
21. Why did Jiang think the music of his life had stopped?
A. He was too poor to buy a piano. B. He became disabled five years ago.
C. He was too old to play the piano. D. He lost interest in playing the piano.
22. What does the underlined word “flexible” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Hard to break. B. Quick to learn. C. Easy to move. D. Slow to change.
23. How is the bionic hand compared to traditional prosthetics?
A. It is much heavier. B. It can only do easy moves.
C. It costs more money. D. It can help do most things.
24. What does paragraph 5 mainly talk about?
A. The use of the exoskeleton. B. The future of the exoskeleton.
C. The price of the exoskeleton. D. The challenge of the exoskeleton.
25. What can be the best title of the passage?
A. AI products help do hard work B. The great development of China
C. Cheaper Chinese smart products D. Smart technologies warm our life
第二节 (共5小题,每小题2分)
请阅读下面的短文,并从下列的六个句子中选择五个还原到原文中,使原文的意思完整、连贯。
When you see the word “ataraxia” in a test, does your mind go empty? You’ve seen it before, but you can’t recall (想起) it. Why does this happen? ____26____
Let’s understand how memory works first. ____27____ Interestingly, a little stress can help with the first two steps. When you feel a bit stressed, your body produces some stress hormones (荷尔蒙). These help your brain save memories better.
____28____ When you feel very stressed during a test, your brain acts like it’s in danger. As a result, the thinking part of your brain slows down. This makes it hard for you to recall things.
So what can you do to turn stress to your advantage? ____29____ This way, you will feel more relaxed during the real test. Then, make yourself feel less worried by doing exercise. Exercise also improves sleep, which is important before a test. Moreover, take deep breaths on the actual test day. ____30____
Next time you find your mind empty, take a few deep breaths. With a clearer mind, you may soon remember that “ataraxia” means a state of calmness.
A. However, too much stress can have a negative effect.
B. This simple method can help calm you down quickly.
C. For example, you could try listening to music to relax.
D. First, try preparing in an environment similar to the test.
E. It mainly includes three steps: learning, saving, and recalling.
F. The answer lies in the relationship between stress and memory.

【46题答案】
【答案】例文1
Comparing e-books with paper books, I like paper books as they provide a better reading experience for three reasons.
First I love collecting books. Seeing them on my shelf brings me joy. For example, my favorite book was a gift from my best friend. Every time I see it, I think of our friendship. Second, they help me remember the content better. Third, paper books are more eye-friendly because they reflect natural light softly, so I can’t feel tired.
In short, paper books make reading more enjoyable and valuable. That’s why I often choose them.
例文2
Comparing e-books with paper books, I like e-books for daily use.
There are three reasons. Firstly, e-books are very convenient. I can take all my books anywhere without carrying heavy bags. Secondly, they help me learn English better. What’s more, they save money and protect the environment. E-books usually cost less than paper books, and they don’t use paper, which helps save trees.
I believe e-books are the better choice for students today. They make reading and learning easier and more efficient.
