When she was walking to her dormitory (宿舍) with her friend on 10 March, a man suddenly appeared with a knife in his hand. He tried to stab (刺) Cui’s friend. Without a second thought, Cui pushed her friend away and she herself was stabbed. The man then walked up to Cui’s friend and stabbed her with the knife. Once again, Cui stopped the man with her own body. Both of the girls were taken to the hospital. Cui was badly hurt. Her parents were really sad when they saw their daughter. But Cui later said that she would like to protect others, because she was the daughter of a serviceman (军人). Seeing her parents worrying about her, she said, “It really doesn’t hurt, not at all.” After four years, with the dream of protecting more people, Cui became a policewoman in her hometown, Ningbo, Zhejiang, in September. Cui said, “I want to protect people just like my father.” Cui was the third torchbearer (火炬手) for the Hangzhou Asian Games in Ningbo. She also served for the Games. “I’d like to show the beautiful cities of Zhejiang to the world!” Cui said. 29.What did Cui Yiwen do when the man tried to stab her friend? A.She ran away quickly. B.She shouted for help. C.She stood out for her friend. D.She called the police. 30.What can we learn from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2? A.Cui wanted to show she was in good health. B.Cui wanted to show that she was not afraid. C.Cui wanted to explain how she got badly hurt. D.Cui wanted to make her parents less worried. 31.Why did Cui choose to become a policewoman in her hometown? A.Because she couldn’t find other jobs. B.Because she loved her hometown deeply. C.Because she wanted to protect more people. D.Because she was a daughter of a policeman. 32.Which of the following best describes Cui according to the passage? A.Loving and brave. B.Interesting and helpful. C.Brave but careless. D.Helpful but strict. C ①Today, it is a big problem for young people to get good jobs after they leave universities. There are different kinds of jobs in the world. But how should young people choose the right one? That often worries them. ②“Finding a job” is not the same as “choosing a job”. Many young people can't get right jobs. Here are a few steps to help you think about jobs which you might enjoy doing after you leave school or university. ③First, it is important to know what kind of person you are, what special qualities you have and what you are interested in. There is a difference between an interest and a skill. You like art and enjoy looking at pictures; that is an interest. But you can draw a horse and it looks like a horse not a big dog; that is a skill. ④Then ask yourself a question, “Of the following three skills—skill with people, skill with information and skill with things, which is my best skill?” ⑤After finding out your best skill, the next step is to study carefully. To find out as many different kinds of jobs as possible, go to the library and read books, magazines and newspapers for information. Ask your friends what they think of the work they do. ⑥The last step is to trust your own ideas and your own thinking! It is your own life. Just find the job you really enjoy doing. 33.What does the underlined word “one” in Paragraph 1 refer to? A.School. B.University. C.Problem. D.Job. 34.Which of the following is a skill according to the passage? A.You are good at writing stories. B.You enjoy listening to music. C.You plan to run every morning. D.You choose your favourite books. 35.What’s the structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 36.What’s the best title for this passage? A.How to find out best skills B.How to solve problems C.How to know yourself D.How to choose a suitable job D From social relationships to work challenges, Chinese people are turning to DeepSeek to deal with different personal problems. They share their thoughts and receive helpful responses (回答) from the popular chatbot. As a rising trend on social media, AI therapy (心理治疗) is changing the way people look for mental (精神的) health support. But can AI really replace a human therapist? Around the world, 45 percent of people needed mental health care but did not receive it in 2024, with problems including cost and being short of providers, according to Huntington Psychological (心理的) Services. Daniel Lowd, a professor at the University of Oregon, believes AI could help solve the absence of therapy services. “If people can find some support and thoughts by talking to chatbots, then I think that’s wonderful,” Lowd told Newsweek. Li Yong, a doctor at the Jiangsu Province Hospital, agreed with Lowd, saying that AI meets people’s needs for emotional support. By using basic knowledge of therapy, DeepSeek can help with some mental problems through comforting responses. However, he points out that AI cannot completely replace experts because the human touch is important for therapy services. Therapists develop a deeper understanding of people’s feelings and needs through communication. This allows them to offer more helpful treatment plans. The use of AI in therapy also has made people question if its answers can be trusted. “AI chatbots will respond as therapists if asked, without any of the management (管理), training or responsibility of a human therapist,” Richard Lachman, a professor told Newsweek. Experts believe the key to AI therapy lies in proper government management. Wysa, for example, is a mental health app that offers therapeutic conversations with an AI chatbot. In 2022, it worked with the UK’s National Health Service, following a list of strict standards. As AI becomes a bigger part of our lives, understanding its effects on human psychology means finding a balance between what’s helpful and what’s dangerous, Euronews reported. 37.How does the writer develop the first paragraph? A.By giving an example. B.By telling a story. C.By comparing two facts. D.By listing numbers. 38.How can AI help in mental health care according to Daniel Lowd? A.By offering more medical costs. B.By solving the absence of therapy services. C.By training professional doctors. D.By replacing all human therapists. 39.Why doesn’t Li Yong believe AI can fully replace human therapists? A.Because AI chatbots are short of basic knowledge of therapy. B.Because AI chatbots cannot provide comforting responses. C.Because human therapists better understand feelings and needs. D.Because human therapists can follow strict government rules well. 40.What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A.The importance of the management for AI therapy. B.The effects of AI chatbots in human psychology. C.The introduction to a popular mental health app. D.The differences between AI and human therapists. E When I was a kid, adults often asked, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” I really didn’t like it. 41 People seemed unhappy when I didn’t do many things. 42 In college, I realized I didn’t want just one job. I wanted to dream of being something great like a scientist or an astronaut. I think asking kids such a question is bad. First, asking this question makes kids define (下定义) themselves by work. People don’t think “a father” or “a person of kindness” is a right answer. 43 Second, asking this question means that there’s a special job for everyone. 44 And many career dreams may not be practical. As Chris Rock said, “Not all kids can be anything they want. Some need to learn practical skills.” 45 Looking for the dream job can make college seniors worried and unhappy. So having low expectations (期望) can be better. I think we should encourage kids to have big dreams, but not just about jobs. Let them think about what kind of person they want to be and the different things they might want to do. After all, making dreams come true is more meaningful than just having a job. A.Parents say caring for others is important, but it can often make students feel difficult. B.I never had a good answer. But looking for it makes students feel difficult. C.Instead, they often think success is the top value. D.Third, careers usually don’t meet childhood dreams. E.I experienced different careers after graduation. F.I don’t think having a job is difficult. 四.选词填空(10分) 从方框中选择合适的单词并用其适当形式填空。 paint   even  job   prepare   though   feel   ancient   understand   strong   cultural We all know Yang Guifei was a great beauty during the Tang Dynasty in ancient times.

Here are a few steps to help you think about jobs which you might enjoy doing after you leave school or university. ③First, it is important to know what kind of person you are, what special qualities you have and what you are interested in. There is a difference between an interest and a skill. You like art and enjoy looking at pictures; that is an interest. But you can draw a horse and it looks like a horse not a big dog; that is a skill. ④Then ask yourself a question, “Of the following three skills—skill with people, skill with information and skill with things, which is my best skill?” ⑤After finding out your best skill, the next step is to study carefully. To find out as many different kinds of jobs as possible, go to the library and read books, magazines and newspapers for information. Ask your friends what they think of the work they do. ⑥The last step is to trust your own ideas and your own thinking! It is your own life. Just find the job you really enjoy doing. 33.What does the underlined word “one” in Paragraph 1 refer to? A.School. B.University. C.Problem. D.Job. 34.Which of the following is a skill according to the passage? A.You are good at writing stories. B.You enjoy listening to music. C.You plan to run every morning. D.You choose your favourite books. 35.What’s the structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 36.What’s the best title for this passage? A.How to find out best skills B.How to solve problems C.How to know yourself D.How to choose a suitable job D From social relationships to work challenges, Chinese people are turning to DeepSeek to deal with different personal problems. They share their thoughts and receive helpful responses (回答) from the popular chatbot. As a rising trend on social media, AI therapy (心理治疗) is changing the way people look for mental (精神的) health support. But can AI really replace a human therapist? Around the world, 45 percent of people needed mental health care but did not receive it in 2024, with problems including cost and being short of providers, according to Huntington Psychological (心理的) Services. Daniel Lowd, a professor at the University of Oregon, believes AI could help solve the absence of therapy services. “If people can find some support and thoughts by talking to chatbots, then I think that’s wonderful,” Lowd told Newsweek. Li Yong, a doctor at the Jiangsu Province Hospital, agreed with Lowd, saying that AI meets people’s needs for emotional support. By using basic knowledge of therapy, DeepSeek can help with some mental problems through comforting responses. However, he points out that AI cannot completely replace experts because the human touch is important for therapy services. Therapists develop a deeper understanding of people’s feelings and needs through communication. This allows them to offer more helpful treatment plans. The use of AI in therapy also has made people question if its answers can be trusted. “AI chatbots will respond as therapists if asked, without any of the management (管理), training or responsibility of a human therapist,” Richard Lachman, a professor told Newsweek. Experts believe the key to AI therapy lies in proper government management. Wysa, for example, is a mental health app that offers therapeutic conversations with an AI chatbot. In 2022, it worked with the UK’s National Health Service, following a list of strict standards. As AI becomes a bigger part of our lives, understanding its effects on human psychology means finding a balance between what’s helpful and what’s dangerous, Euronews reported. 37.How does the writer develop the first paragraph? A.By giving an example. B.By telling a story. C.By comparing two facts. D.By listing numbers. 38.How can AI help in mental health care according to Daniel Lowd? A.By offering more medical costs. B.By solving the absence of therapy services. C.By training professional doctors. D.By replacing all human therapists. 39.Why doesn’t Li Yong believe AI can fully replace human therapists? A.Because AI chatbots are short of basic knowledge of therapy. B.Because AI chatbots cannot provide comforting responses. C.Because human therapists better understand feelings and needs. D.Because human therapists can follow strict government rules well. 40.What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A.The importance of the management for AI therapy. B.The effects of AI chatbots in human psychology. C.The introduction to a popular mental health app. D.The differences between AI and human therapists. E When I was a kid, adults often asked, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” I really didn’t like it. 41 People seemed unhappy when I didn’t do many things. 42 In college, I realized I didn’t want just one job. I wanted to dream of being something great like a scientist or an astronaut. I think asking kids such a question is bad. First, asking this question makes kids define (下定义) themselves by work. People don’t think “a father” or “a person of kindness” is a right answer. 43 Second, asking this question means that there’s a special job for everyone. 44 And many career dreams may not be practical. As Chris Rock said, “Not all kids can be anything they want. Some need to learn practical skills.” 45 Looking for the dream job can make college seniors worried and unhappy. So having low expectations (期望) can be better. I think we should encourage kids to have big dreams, but not just about jobs. Let them think about what kind of person they want to be and the different things they might want to do. After all, making dreams come true is more meaningful than just having a job. A.Parents say caring for others is important, but it can often make students feel difficult. B.I never had a good answer. But looking for it makes students feel difficult. C.Instead, they often think success is the top value. D.Third, careers usually don’t meet childhood dreams. E.I experienced different careers after graduation. F.I don’t think having a job is difficult. 四.选词填空(10分) 从方框中选择合适的单词并用其适当形式填空。 paint   even  job   prepare   though   feel   ancient   understand   strong   cultural We all know Yang Guifei was a great beauty during the Tang Dynasty in ancient times.

There are different kinds of jobs in the world. But how should young people choose the right one? That often worries them. ②“Finding a job” is not the same as “choosing a job”. Many young people can't get right jobs. Here are a few steps to help you think about jobs which you might enjoy doing after you leave school or university. ③First, it is important to know what kind of person you are, what special qualities you have and what you are interested in. There is a difference between an interest and a skill. You like art and enjoy looking at pictures; that is an interest. But you can draw a horse and it looks like a horse not a big dog; that is a skill. ④Then ask yourself a question, “Of the following three skills—skill with people, skill with information and skill with things, which is my best skill?” ⑤After finding out your best skill, the next step is to study carefully. To find out as many different kinds of jobs as possible, go to the library and read books, magazines and newspapers for information. Ask your friends what they think of the work they do. ⑥The last step is to trust your own ideas and your own thinking! It is your own life.

They share their thoughts and receive helpful responses (回答) from the popular chatbot. As a rising trend on social media, AI therapy (心理治疗) is changing the way people look for mental (精神的) health support. But can AI really replace a human therapist? Around the world, 45 percent of people needed mental health care but did not receive it in 2024, with problems including cost and being short of providers, according to Huntington Psychological (心理的) Services. Daniel Lowd, a professor at the University of Oregon, believes AI could help solve the absence of therapy services. “If people can find some support and thoughts by talking to chatbots, then I think that’s wonderful,” Lowd told Newsweek. Li Yong, a doctor at the Jiangsu Province Hospital, agreed with Lowd, saying that AI meets people’s needs for emotional support. By using basic knowledge of therapy, DeepSeek can help with some mental problems through comforting responses. However, he points out that AI cannot completely replace experts because the human touch is important for therapy services. Therapists develop a deeper understanding of people’s feelings and needs through communication. This allows them to offer more helpful treatment plans. The use of AI in therapy also has made people question if its answers can be trusted. “AI chatbots will respond as therapists if asked, without any of the management (管理), training or responsibility of a human therapist,” Richard Lachman, a professor told Newsweek. Experts believe the key to AI therapy lies in proper government management. Wysa, for example, is a mental health app that offers therapeutic conversations with an AI chatbot. In 2022, it worked with the UK’s National Health Service, following a list of strict standards. As AI becomes a bigger part of our lives, understanding its effects on human psychology means finding a balance between what’s helpful and what’s dangerous, Euronews reported. 37.How does the writer develop the first paragraph? A.By giving an example. B.By telling a story. C.By comparing two facts. D.By listing numbers. 38.How can AI help in mental health care according to Daniel Lowd? A.By offering more medical costs. B.By solving the absence of therapy services. C.By training professional doctors. D.By replacing all human therapists. 39.Why doesn’t Li Yong believe AI can fully replace human therapists? A.Because AI chatbots are short of basic knowledge of therapy. B.Because AI chatbots cannot provide comforting responses. C.Because human therapists better understand feelings and needs. D.Because human therapists can follow strict government rules well. 40.What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A.The importance of the management for AI therapy. B.The effects of AI chatbots in human psychology. C.The introduction to a popular mental health app. D.The differences between AI and human therapists. 【答案】37.A 38.B 39.C 40.A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文,讲述了随着人工智能在心理治疗领域的兴起,人们开始探讨其是否能取代人类治疗师。文章通过专家观点、实例及管理要求等方面,分析了人工智能在心理治疗中的优势与局限性,强调了政府管理的重要性。 37.推理判断题。根据文章第一段“From social relationships to work challenges, Chinese people are turning to DeepSeek to deal with different personal problems. They share their thoughts and receive helpful responses (回答) from the popular chatbot.”可知,作者通过给出中国人使用DeepSeek处理个人问题的例子来展开第一段。故选A。 38.细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Daniel Lowd, a professor at the University of Oregon, believes AI could help solve the absence of therapy services. ‘If people can find some support and thoughts by talking to chatbots, then I think that's wonderful,’ Lowd told Newsweek.”可知,Daniel Lowd认为人工智能可以帮助解决心理治疗服务缺失的问题。故选B。 39.细节理解题。根据文章第三段“However, he points out that AI cannot completely replace experts because the human touch is important for therapy services. Therapists develop a deeper understanding of people's feelings and needs through communication. This allows them to offer more helpful treatment plans.”可知,李勇认为人工智能不能完全取代人类治疗师,因为人类治疗师通过交流能更好地理解人们的感受和需求。故选C。 40.主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段“Experts believe the key to AI therapy lies in proper government management. Wysa, for example, is a mental health app that offers therapeutic conversations with an AI chatbot. In 2022, it worked with the UK's National Health Service, following a list of strict standards. As AI becomes a bigger part of our lives, understanding its effects on human psychology means finding a balance between what's helpful and what's dangerous, Euronews reported.”可知,最后一段主要讲述了政府管理对于人工智能心理治疗的重要性。故选A。 E When I was a kid, adults often asked, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” I really didn’t like it. 41 People seemed unhappy when I didn’t do many things. 42 In college, I realized I didn’t want just one job. I wanted to dream of being something great like a scientist or an astronaut. I think asking kids such a question is bad. First, asking this question makes kids define (下定义) themselves by work. People don’t think “a father” or “a person of kindness” is a right answer. 43 Second, asking this question means that there’s a special job for everyone. 44 And many career dreams may not be practical. As Chris Rock said, “Not all kids can be anything they want. Some need to learn practical skills.” 45 Looking for the dream job can make college seniors worried and unhappy. So having low expectations (期望) can be better. I think we should encourage kids to have big dreams, but not just about jobs. Let them think about what kind of person they want to be and the different things they might want to do. After all, making dreams come true is more meaningful than just having a job. A.Parents say caring for others is important, but it can often make students feel difficult. B.I never had a good answer. But looking for it makes students feel difficult. C.Instead, they often think success is the top value. D.Third, careers usually don’t meet childhood dreams. E.I experienced different careers after graduation. F.I don’t think having a job is difficult. 【答案】41.B 42.C 43.A 44.D 45.F 【导语】本文围绕“长大后想做什么”这个问题的弊端展开,分析了该问题对孩子的负面影响,并提出了更积极的引导方向。 41.根据“I really didn’t like it”和“People seemed unhappy when I didn’t do many things”可知,空格处应承接“不喜欢这个问题”的原因。选项B“我从来没有一个好答案,而且寻找答案会让学生感到困难。”符合语境。故选B。 42.根据“People seem unhappy when I didn’t do many things”可知空格处应解释这种反应背后的价值观。选项C“相反,他们通常认为成功是最重要的。”符合语境。故选C。 43.根据“People don’t think ‘a father’ or ‘a person of kindness’ is a right answer.”可知,空格处应说明这种矛盾的引导对学生的影响。选项A“父母说关心他人很重要,但这往往会让学生感到很难。”符合语境。故选A。 44.根据“Second, asking this question means that there’s a special job for everyone.”和“And many career dreams may not be practical.”可知,空格处应承接“问题的弊端”的分点论述。选项D“第三,职业通常无法满足童年的梦想。”符合语境。故选D。 45.根据“Looking for the dream job can make college seniors worried and unhappy.”可知,空格处应与后文形成对比,引出“寻找理想工作才让人焦虑”的观点。选项F“我不认为拥有一份工作很难。”符合语境。故选F。 四.选词填空(10分) 从方框中选择合适的单词并用其适当形式填空。 paint   even  job   prepare   though   feel   ancient   understand   strong   cultural We all know Yang Guifei was a great beauty during the Tang Dynasty in ancient times.
