A
On January 20. 2025, a Chinese technology company made a new AI called DeepSeek-R1. This smart program costs much less to build and it’s free to use. As a result, it’s used not only among adults but teenagers. Recently, we have asked our readers to discuss if students should use AI for their schoolwork.
Andrew, 15
a secondary
school student
We shouldn’t introduce AI into schools. First, some schools wouldn’t be able to afford the latest technology, and that can create an unfair situation for their students. Second, teachers might not know how to make full use of AI programs in their classes. Most importantly, AI just provides us with information while teachers know how to help us take it in.
Lily, 21
a college student
Learning about AI can help prepare for our technology-filled future. Using AI helps students develop critical (批判的) thinking and problem-solving skills. And it`s good for students to know about AI’s advantages and disadvantages early. As long as it’s done well, learning about Al in schools can change society for the better.
Mr Wang, 36
a parent
AI may be good for adults, but it's not wise for kids to depend on it before learning about the basic tasks of education. That’s why schools teach kids handwriting and spelling when most adults type. Kids’ brains need to be exercised to develop, just like their bodies.
Miss Li, 42
a teacher
AI will change the way students learn. Many people fear that it might lead to some trouble, such as cheating (欺骗), but in fact it can guide students through questions instead of directly giving them the answer. It can also work with teachers to create suitable lesson plans so that no students will fall behind in class.
11. Who supports the students in using AI for their schoolwork in the passage?
A. Andrew and Lily B. Andrew and Mr Wang
C. Lily and Miss Li D. Mr Wang and Miss Li
12. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
A. DeepSeek-R1 costs much to build and it's expensive to use.
B. AI is very useful, but it has both advantages and disadvantages.
C. AI provides us with information and knows how to help us take it in.
D. No schools teach kids handwriting and spelling now because of AI programs.
13. Where is the passage most probably taken from?
A. A magazine. B. A travel guide. C. A dictionary. D. An advertisement.
【答案】11 C 12. B 13. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。2025年1月20日一家中国科技公司推出新AI DeepSeek-R1,就学生是否应在学业中使用AI,15岁的Andrew、21岁的Lily、36岁的Mr Wang、42岁的Miss Li分别从不同身份角度表达了支持或反对等观点 。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据Lily的观点“Learning about AI can help prepare for our technology-filled future. Using AI helps students develop critical (批判的) thinking and problem - solving skills.”以及Miss Li的观点“AI will change the way students learn...It can also work with teachers to create suitable lesson plans so that no students will fall behind in class.”可知,Lily和Miss Li支持学生在学业中使用AI。故选C。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据文中对AI讨论,Lily提到“it’s good for students to know about AI’s advantages and disadvantages early” ,可知AI很有用,但有优缺点。A选项错误;C选项与“AI just provides us with information while teachers know how to help us take it in.”不符;D选项与“That’s why schools teach kids handwriting and spelling when most adults type.”不符。故选B。

A recent study from the Chinese Academy of Sciences (中科院) has found a wonderful secret of the natural world: trees in a forest can actually “talk” to each other and work together to help each other stay healthy and grow.
The study explains that trees are connected by a special web under the ground. This web is made of their roots and a kind of fungi (真菌), and often called the “Wood Wide Web”. When a tree is attacked by insects or is short of water, it doesn’t stay in silence. Instead, it sends out special messages to tell other trees about the danger through this web. Nearby trees that receive these messages will quickly start making special things to protect themselves.
What’s more, the help doesn’t stop there. In the forest, there are larger, older trees, called “mother trees”, which play an important role. They are often the most connected centre in the web and will even share valuable nutrients (营养素) and water with younger trees through their roots and the fungi, giving them a better chance to grow better.
This exciting discovery teaches us a very important lesson about nature. It helps us understand why it’s important to protect whole forest ecosystems (生态系统), not just focusing on single trees.
The research team leader, Dr. Wang, shared his thoughts on the bigger lesson: “This teaches us a lesson about working together and community. Just like trees that support each other unconditionally (无条件地), we humans should also work together to protect our environment. Every tree matters in a forest, just as every person matters in our society.“
14. How do trees mainly “talk” to each other according to the study?
A. By wind and air.
B. By sending messages through the air.
C. By changing the color of their leaves.
D. Through their roots and a special web under the ground.
15. What do “mother trees” do to help younger trees?
A. Give them more sunlight. B. Share nutrients through their roots.
C. Protect them from strong winds. D. Help them fight the insects.
16. What does Dr. Wang mainly want to tell us?
A. Trees are as important as people.
B. Older people are always wiser than young people.
C. Humans should learn from trees and work together.
D. Cutting down trees is important for making cities bigger.
17. Which of the following best describes the purpose of the passage?
A. To explain how fungi help trees grow.
B. To encourage people to protect plants.
C. To describe the dangers forests are facing.
D. To tell us about a scientific discovery and its lesson on working together.
【答案】14. D 15. B 16. C 17. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了中科院一项研究发现:森林中的树木能够通过地下的特殊网络进行交流并合作,帮助彼此保持健康和生长。文章还阐述了“母树”对幼树的帮助,以及这一发现对人类社会的启示。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The study explains that trees are connected by a special web under the ground. This web is made of their roots and a kind of fungi (真菌), and often called the ‘Wood Wide Web’. When a tree is attacked by insects or is short of water, it doesn’t stay in silence. Instead, it sends out special messages to tell other trees about the danger through this web.”可知,树木主要通过地下的根和特殊网络进行交流。故选D。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“In the forest, there are larger, older trees, called ‘mother trees’, which play an important role. They are often the most connected centre in the web and will even share valuable nutrients (营养素) and water with younger trees through their roots and the fungi, giving them a better chance to grow better.”可知,“母树”通过根和真菌与幼树分享营养素和水。故选B。
【16题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“The research team leader, Dr. Wang, shared his thoughts on the bigger lesson: ‘This teaches us a lesson about working together and community. Just like trees that support each other unconditionally (无条件地), we humans should also work together to protect our environment. Every tree matters in a forest, just as every person matters in our society.’”可知,王博士主要想告诉我们人类应该像树木一样无条件地相互支持,共同合作保护环境。故选C。
【17题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“A recent study from the Chinese Academy of Sciences (中科院) has found a wonderful secret of the natural world: trees in a forest can actually ‘talk’ to each other and work together to help each other stay healthy and grow.”以及全文内容可知,文章主要介绍了中科院的一项科学发现,即树木能够通过地下的特殊网络进行交流并合作,以及这一发现对人类社会的启示,即人类应该学会像树木一样合作。故选D。

句意:制作一套宫灯通常需要冯和他的妻子至少一个月的时间。根据“usually”可知,此处描述的是经常性、习惯性的动作,因此用一般现在时,且主语“It”为第三人称单数,因此动词“take”用第三人称单数形式“takes”。故填takes。
【42题详解】
句意:冯对他的宫灯做了一些改变,使它们更接近现代生活。根据“much”和“to modern life”可知,此处表示比较级,因此用“close”的比较级形式“closer”,表示“更接近”。故填closer。
【43题详解】
句意:它们在庆祝活动和节日期间非常受欢迎,特别是在春节期间。根据“during celebrations and festivals”和“during the Spring Festival”可知,此处表示在庆祝活动和节日期间,特别是在春节期间,因此用副词“especially”表示“特别地”。故填especially。
【44题详解】
句意:例如,今年春节,冯卖了大约七套灯笼,每套价格约1万元。根据“this Spring Festival”可知,此处描述的是过去发生的事情,因此用一般过去时,动词“sell”的过去式为“sold”。故填sold。
【45题详解】
句意:因为像冯这样的工匠,我们的文化才能得以延续。根据“the craftsmen (手艺人) like Feng”和“our culture can be kept alive”可知,前后句为因果关系,且“Because of”后接名词或名词短语,因此用“because of”表示“因为”。故填of。
【46题详解】
句意:自从几年前,他就一直在考虑将这门手艺传给更多的人。根据“Since several years ago”可知,此处描述的是从过去某一时间点开始一直持续到现在的动作,因此用现在完成进行时“has been considering”,表示“一直在考虑”。故填has been considering。

Dear Anna,
How is everything going? I’m writing to tell you something about my school trip. Last Friday, we visited the Wild Animal Park. We saw many animals, like lions, tigers, and monkeys.

A
On January 20. 2025, a Chinese technology company made a new AI called DeepSeek-R1. This smart program costs much less to build and it’s free to use. As a result, it’s used not only among adults but teenagers. Recently, we have asked our readers to discuss if students should use AI for their schoolwork.
Andrew, 15
a secondary
school student
We shouldn’t introduce AI into schools. First, some schools wouldn’t be able to afford the latest technology, and that can create an unfair situation for their students. Second, teachers might not know how to make full use of AI programs in their classes. Most importantly, AI just provides us with information while teachers know how to help us take it in.
Lily, 21
a college student
Learning about AI can help prepare for our technology-filled future. Using AI helps students develop critical (批判的) thinking and problem-solving skills. And it`s good for students to know about AI’s advantages and disadvantages early. As long as it’s done well, learning about Al in schools can change society for the better.
Mr Wang, 36
a parent
AI may be good for adults, but it's not wise for kids to depend on it before learning about the basic tasks of education. That’s why schools teach kids handwriting and spelling when most adults type. Kids’ brains need to be exercised to develop, just like their bodies.
Miss Li, 42
a teacher
AI will change the way students learn. Many people fear that it might lead to some trouble, such as cheating (欺骗), but in fact it can guide students through questions instead of directly giving them the answer. It can also work with teachers to create suitable lesson plans so that no students will fall behind in class.
11. Who supports the students in using AI for their schoolwork in the passage?
A Andrew and Lily B. Andrew and Mr Wang
C. Lily and Miss Li D. Mr Wang and Miss Li
12. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
A. DeepSeek-R1 costs much to build and it's expensive to use.
B. AI is very useful, but it has both advantages and disadvantages.
C. AI provides us with information and knows how to help us take it in.
D. No schools teach kids handwriting and spelling now because of AI programs.
13. Where is the passage most probably taken from?
A. A magazine. B. A travel guide. C. A dictionary. D. An advertisement.
B
A recent study from the Chinese Academy of Sciences (中科院) has found a wonderful secret of the natural world: trees in a forest can actually “talk” to each other and work together to help each other stay healthy and grow.
The study explains that trees are connected by a special web under the ground. This web is made of their roots and a kind of fungi (真菌) and often called the “Wood Wide Web”. When a tree is attacked by insects or is short of water, it doesn’t stay in silence. Instead, it sends out special messages to tell other trees about the danger through this web. Nearby trees that receive these messages will quickly start making special things to protect themselves.
What’s more, the help doesn’t stop there. In the forest, there are larger, older trees, called “mother trees”, which play an important role. They are often the most connected centre in the web and will even share valuable nutrients (营养素) and water with younger trees through their roots and the fungi, giving them a better chance to grow better.
This exciting discovery teaches us a very important lesson about nature. It helps us understand why it’s important to protect whole forest ecosystems (生态系统), not just focusing on single trees.
The research team leader, Dr. Wang, shared his thoughts on the bigger lesson: “This teaches us a lesson about working together and community. Just like trees that support each other unconditionally (无条件地), we humans should also work together to protect our environment. Every tree matters in a forest, just as every person matters in our society.“
14. How do trees mainly “talk” to each other according to the study?
A. By wind and air.
B. By sending messages through the air.
C. By changing the color of their leaves.
D. Through their roots and a special web under the ground.
15. What do “mother trees” do to help younger trees?
A. Give them more sunlight. B. Share nutrients through their roots.
C. Protect them from strong winds. D. Help them fight the insects.
16. What does Dr. Wang mainly want to tell us?
A. Trees are as important as people.
B. Older people are always wiser than young people.
C Humans should learn from trees and work together.
D. Cutting down trees is important for making cities bigger.
17. Which of the following best describes the purpose of the passage?
A. To explain how fungi help trees grow.
B. To encourage people to protect plants.
C. To describe the dangers forests are facing.
D. To tell us about a scientific discovery and its lesson on working together.
