For many teenagers, senior high school is a time when they argue more with their parents. They want to be independent and make their own decisions, while their parents may still see them as children.

However, sometimes they are about more important things like future plans or choosing courses. It is normal to have different opinions, but constant arguing is unhealthy for everyone.
So, what can you do? Communication is the key. Try to explain your feelings and reasons calmly to your parents. Also, listen to their point of view. They have more life experience and their advice is often valuable. You may not always agree, but showing respect can help reduce arguments. Remember, your parents’ final goal is always to protect and help you.

I’m Kate. Like many people in the UK, I grew up with a very narrow understanding of health. If I felt anxious or tired, I just kept going. If I had a headache, I took painkillers. There was very little thought given to why symptoms appeared or how to live in a way that might prevent them from happening. It wasn’t until my early thirties, while working in a high-stress advertising job, that everything caught up with me. I was completely burnt out.
One of the most alarming symptoms I was experiencing at the time was unusual heartbeats — loud uneven throbs (跳动) that shook my chest every few minutes. I went to the hospital and was told doctors could do nothing, except to keep an eye on it in case it caused problems later in life. There was no mention of emotional tension. No questions about how I was dealing with stress. That was the moment I turned to acupuncture (针灸).
I didn’t know much about it, but something about it felt right. And that first treatment marked the beginning of a deep and lasting change. Through acupuncture treatments, I found a kind of calm I hadn’t experienced in years. My mind cleared, my body felt stronger, and those frightening heartbeats became less and less noticeable. I had discovered a whole new way of seeing health and life.
That experience sparked my interest. I began reading everything I could about acupuncture: not just the practical benefits, but the basic philosophy. I discovered that Chinese medicine is more of a way of understanding ourselves and the world. It teaches that our health isn’t something to hand over to someone else to fix. It’s something to respect and tend to every day, through our food, our emotional lives, our ability to respond to stress, and our relationship with nature and the seasons.
8. How did Kate treat health issues early on?
A. Ignoring the root causes. B. Taking painkillers regularly.
C. Stopping work when feeling tired. D. Keeping a healthy lifestyle.
9. What made Kate turn to acupuncture?
A. Her heartbeats becoming more frequent. B. Doctors’ advice to keep an eye on it.
C. Her high-stress advertising job. D. Doctors’ failure to address her stress.
10. What happened to Kate after her first acupuncture?
A. She lost trust in doctors. B. She loved reading acupuncture books.
C. She experienced inner peace. D. Her heartbeats returned to normal.
11. What does Kate think of Chinese medicine?
A. It tries to reveal mental factors. B. It offers a new way to understand life.
C. It works better than Western medicine. D. It requires daily food control.
D
Many educators have been teaching themselves how to use AI. For Jerome Ong, a 5th grade teacher in Ridgewood, New Jersey, AI has changed the way he approaches teaching. He now uses AI tools every week in his classroom. “You have to find what works for your students,” he said. Ong not only teaches his students what AI is, but also where it falls short. “If you keep at it and say, ‘No, you’re wrong, you’re wrong,’ eventually AI will say, ‘I’m sorry, I was wrong.’ Doing that with your class can show you that AI isn’t really as smart as you think it is,” Ong said.
This summer, Microsoft, OpenAI and Anthropic announced a first-of-its-kind plan to train hundreds of thousands of members of the American Federation of Teachers. “I think if we’re going to make AI work for students and kids, we need to listen to teachers,” said Microsoft president Brad Smith. The $23 million investment will go toward virtual and in-person training in New York City.
“The direct connection between a teacher and their kids can never be replaced by new technologies, but if we learn how to use them, set practical guidelines and put teachers in the driver’s seat, teaching and learning can be better,” said AFT President Randi Weingarten.
However, critics cite cheating concerns and Microsoft’s own research, which showed a self-reported reduction in critical thinking skills when AI was not used responsibly. AFT member Lois Weiner thinks teachers would be better served by more support within schools than by a partnership with Silicon Valley. “There is so much boredom in the job, but the answer to that is to improve teachers’ working conditions,” said Weiner, adding that AI does not achieve better work conditions for teachers.
Smith argued education should be left to teachers: “Those of us in the tech field need to provide the tools and help school boards, districts, and teachers so they decide how to put those tools into practice.”
12. What do the underlined words “falls short” in paragraph 1 mean?
A. Is wrong. B. Has limitations.
C. Is not enough. D. Fails to work.
13. What is the main idea of paragraph 2?
A. Teachers are urged to listen to students. B. Microsoft will invest $23 million in NYC.
C. Tech companies plan to train teachers. D. Three firms aim to promote AI in schools.
14. What can be inferred from Lois Weiner’s comments?
A. AI can help reduce teachers’ boredom. B. Partnership with tech firms benefits teachers.
C. Teachers are smarter than AI. D. Teachers need more support within schools.
15. What is Brad Smith’s attitude towards AI in education?
A. Supportive. B. Critical. C. Doubtful. D. Neutral.
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
The belief in talking to plants has existed for centuries. Ancient civilizations, such as the Greeks and local cultures, believed plants responded to energy, emotion, and sound. In the 1840s, German professor Gustav Fechner suggested plants might have feelings. ___16___
Technically, plants don’t have ears or a nervous system, so they don’t “hear” in the traditional sense. However, studies have shown plants can detect vibrations (振动) in their environment — including sound waves produced by human speech or music. ___17___ For instance, South Korean researchers found certain plant genes (基因) responded positively to classical music and human voice frequencies.
Some studies suggest that plants respond more favorably to female voices than male voices due to differences in pitch (音高) and frequency. Music types like classical or jazz have shown positive results, while loud rock music may stress plants. Ultimately, regularity and loudness may influence the result. ___18___
___19___ However, there are enough facts to suggest that plants are sensitive to their environments — including sound. Whether it’s the vibration from your voice or the regular care that comes from daily contact, your plants just might benefit.
Talking to plants may not be magic, but it does encourage a deeper connection with nature, mindful gardening, and perhaps even a little extra vibrational help. ___20___ Either way, your plant may thank you in its own green way. So go ahead — speak softly some words of encouragement to your favorite leafy green plant.
A. Genes play an important role in plants’ growth.
B. Nobody has observed plants react to external factors.
C. You might rely on science or just care for plants well.
D. We haven’t proven talking to plants directly speeds growth.
E. They can detect and respond to sounds like speech or music.
F. Gentle and calm sounds seem to create vibrations that are more beneficial for plants.
G. That laid the basis for the idea of a psychological connection between humans and nature.

Ever felt like you just can’t stop getting angry at your kids? Me too. And after many years of parenting and coaching ___21___, I’ve realized that we can build up our ___22___, regardless of how rude or annoying our kids act.
Years ago, I found myself home with my kids on the first ___23___ spring day. I was so excited to open the windows. An hour or so later, the kids ___24___ my favorite vase while messing around, and I lost my ___25___, shouting loudly. Remembering the open windows, I ___26___ turned to see a couple of my neighbors looking my ___27___. I did what any person would do — I dropped to the floor, out of sight, ___28___ they hadn’t actually heard me.
While we are ___29___ to remain patient all the time, sometimes our patience runs out. We lose control of our emotions. We say things we ___30___ later. We may even try to ___31___ our impatience from people we know, like our neighbors.
The word “patience” gets thrown around so much that we ___32___ what it means. The dictionary explains patience is “the ability to ___33___ waiting, trouble, or suffering without getting angry or upset.” I also find some books have amazing parenting ___34___. They say patience is more than ___35___ sudden anger; it is also a way to love our kids.

I’m Kate. Like many people in the UK, I grew up with a very narrow understanding of health. If I felt anxious or tired, I just kept going. If I had a headache, I took painkillers. There was very little thought given to why symptoms appeared or how to live in a way that might prevent them from happening. It wasn’t until my early thirties, while working in a high-stress advertising job, that everything caught up with me. I was completely burnt out.
One of the most alarming symptoms I was experiencing at the time was unusual heartbeats — loud uneven throbs (跳动) that shook my chest every few minutes. I went to the hospital and was told doctors could do nothing, except to keep an eye on it in case it caused problems later in life. There was no mention of emotional tension. No questions about how I was dealing with stress. That was the moment I turned to acupuncture (针灸).
I didn’t know much about it, but something about it felt right. And that first treatment marked the beginning of a deep and lasting change. Through acupuncture treatments, I found a kind of calm I hadn’t experienced in years. My mind cleared, my body felt stronger, and those frightening heartbeats became less and less noticeable. I had discovered a whole new way of seeing health and life.
That experience sparked my interest. I began reading everything I could about acupuncture: not just the practical benefits, but the basic philosophy. I discovered that Chinese medicine is more of a way of understanding ourselves and the world. It teaches that our health isn’t something to hand over to someone else to fix. It’s something to respect and tend to every day, through our food, our emotional lives, our ability to respond to stress, and our relationship with nature and the seasons.
8. How did Kate treat health issues early on?
A. Ignoring the root causes. B. Taking painkillers regularly.
C. Stopping work when feeling tired. D. Keeping a healthy lifestyle.
9. What made Kate turn to acupuncture?
A. Her heartbeats becoming more frequent. B. Doctors’ advice to keep an eye on it.
C. Her high-stress advertising job. D. Doctors’ failure to address her stress.
10. What happened to Kate after her first acupuncture?
A. She lost trust in doctors. B. She loved reading acupuncture books.
C. She experienced inner peace. D. Her heartbeats returned to normal.
11. What does Kate think of Chinese medicine?
A. It tries to reveal mental factors. B. It offers a new way to understand life.
C. It works better than Western medicine. D. It requires daily food control.
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. C 11. B

Many educators have been teaching themselves how to use AI. For Jerome Ong, a 5th grade teacher in Ridgewood, New Jersey, AI has changed the way he approaches teaching. He now uses AI tools every week in his classroom. “You have to find what works for your students,” he said. Ong not only teaches his students what AI is, but also where it falls short. “If you keep at it and say, ‘No, you’re wrong, you’re wrong,’ eventually AI will say, ‘I’m sorry, I was wrong.’ Doing that with your class can show you that AI isn’t really as smart as you think it is,” Ong said.
This summer, Microsoft, OpenAI and Anthropic announced a first-of-its-kind plan to train hundreds of thousands of members of the American Federation of Teachers. “I think if we’re going to make AI work for students and kids, we need to listen to teachers,” said Microsoft president Brad Smith. The $23 million investment will go toward virtual and in-person training in New York City.
“The direct connection between a teacher and their kids can never be replaced by new technologies, but if we learn how to use them, set practical guidelines and put teachers in the driver’s seat, teaching and learning can be better,” said AFT President Randi Weingarten.
However, critics cite cheating concerns and Microsoft’s own research, which showed a self-reported reduction in critical thinking skills when AI was not used responsibly. AFT member Lois Weiner thinks teachers would be better served by more support within schools than by a partnership with Silicon Valley. “There is so much boredom in the job, but the answer to that is to improve teachers’ working conditions,” said Weiner, adding that AI does not achieve better work conditions for teachers.
Smith argued education should be left to teachers: “Those of us in the tech field need to provide the tools and help school boards, districts, and teachers so they decide how to put those tools into practice.”
12. What do the underlined words “falls short” in paragraph 1 mean?
A. Is wrong. B. Has limitations.
C. Is not enough. D. Fails to work.
13. What is the main idea of paragraph 2?
A. Teachers are urged to listen to students. B. Microsoft will invest $23 million in NYC.
C. Tech companies plan to train teachers. D. Three firms aim to promote AI in schools.
14. What can be inferred from Lois Weiner’s comments?
A. AI can help reduce teachers’ boredom. B. Partnership with tech firms benefits teachers.
C. Teachers are smarter than AI. D. Teachers need more support within schools.
15. What is Brad Smith’s attitude towards AI in education?
A. Supportive. B. Critical. C. Doubtful. D. Neutral.
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了科技公司助力教师掌握AI技术及其引发的讨论。
【12题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段中“Ong not only teaches his students what AI is, but also where it falls short. “If you keep at it and say, ‘No, you’re wrong, you’re wrong,’ eventually AI will say, ‘I’m sorry, I was wrong.’ Doing that with your class can show you that AI isn’t really as smart as you think it is,” Ong said.(Ong不仅教他的学生什么是人工智能,还教它falls short。“如果你一直坚持说,‘不,你错了,你错了,’最终人工智能会说,‘对不起,我错了。’在课堂上这样做可以让你知道,人工智能并不像你想象的那么聪明,”Ong说。)”可知,Ong不仅教他的学生什么是人工智能,还教它的局限性,此处falls short“有局限性”。故选B。
【13题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段中“This summer, Microsoft, OpenAI and Anthropic announced a first-of-its-kind plan to train hundreds of thousands of members of the American Federation of Teachers.(今年夏天,微软、OpenAI和Anthropic宣布了一项前所未有的计划,将培训美国教师联合会的数十万名成员。)”可知,第二段主要讲述了科技公司计划培训教师。故选C。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“AFT member Lois Weiner thinks teachers would be better served by more support within schools than by a partnership with Silicon Valley.(美国教师联合会成员Lois Weiner认为,与硅谷的合作相比,学校内部给予教师更多的支持对教师更有利。)”可知,从Lois Weiner的评论中可以推断出教师需要学校内部更多的支持。故选D。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Smith argued education should be left to teachers: “Those of us in the tech field need to provide the tools and help school boards, districts, and teachers so they decide how to put those tools into practice.”(Smith认为教育应该留给教师:“我们这些科技领域的人需要提供工具,帮助学校董事会、学区和教师,让他们决定如何将这些工具付诸实践。”)”可知,Brad Smith认为科技领域的人需要提供工具,帮助学校和教师,让他们决定如何使用这些工具,由此可推知,Brad Smith对人工智能在教育中的应用持支持态度。故选A。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
The belief in talking to plants has existed for centuries. Ancient civilizations, such as the Greeks and local cultures, believed plants responded to energy, emotion, and sound. In the 1840s, German professor Gustav Fechner suggested plants might have feelings. ___16___
Technically, plants don’t have ears or a nervous system, so they don’t “hear” in the traditional sense. However, studies have shown plants can detect vibrations (振动) in their environment — including sound waves produced by human speech or music. ___17___ For instance, South Korean researchers found certain plant genes (基因) responded positively to classical music and human voice frequencies.
Some studies suggest that plants respond more favorably to female voices than male voices due to differences in pitch (音高) and frequency. Music types like classical or jazz have shown positive results, while loud rock music may stress plants. Ultimately, regularity and loudness may influence the result. ___18___
___19___ However, there are enough facts to suggest that plants are sensitive to their environments — including sound. Whether it’s the vibration from your voice or the regular care that comes from daily contact, your plants just might benefit.
Talking to plants may not be magic, but it does encourage a deeper connection with nature, mindful gardening, and perhaps even a little extra vibrational help. ___20___ Either way, your plant may thank you in its own green way. So go ahead — speak softly some words of encouragement to your favorite leafy green plant.
A. Genes play an important role in plants’ growth.
B. Nobody has observed plants react to external factors.
C. You might rely on science or just care for plants well.
D. We haven’t proven talking to plants directly speeds growth.
E. They can detect and respond to sounds like speech or music.
F. Gentle and calm sounds seem to create vibrations that are more beneficial for plants.
G. That laid the basis for the idea of a psychological connection between humans and nature.
【答案】16. G 17. E 18. F 19. D 20. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章探讨了与植物交谈的古老信念,并从科学角度解释了植物如何探测和响应声音振动,同时指出这种活动可能带来的益处。
【16题详解】
空前“In the 1840s, German professor Gustav Fechner suggested plants might have feelings.(在19世纪40年代,德国教授古斯塔夫·费希纳提出植物可能具有情感。)”提到植物可能具有情感这一理论,空白处需要填入与此相关的结论或延伸。G项“That laid the basis for the idea of a psychological connection between humans and nature.(这为人类与自然之间存在心理联系的观点奠定了基础。)”中的“That”指代前文Fechner的观点,说明其历史意义,与上文衔接自然,且能结束本段论述。故选G。
【17题详解】
空前“However, studies have shown plants can detect vibrations (振动) in their environment — including sound waves produced by human speech or music.(不过,研究显示植物能够感知其所处环境中的振动——包括人类说话或演奏音乐所产生的声波。 例如,韩国研究人员发现某些植物基因对古典音乐和人类声音的频率会有积极的反应。)”指出“研究表明植物能探测环境中的振动,包括人声或音乐产生的声音波”,空后以“例如”引出具体研究。空白处需要填入一个承上启下的句子,进一步说明植物对声音的反应。E项“They can detect and respond to sounds like speech or music.(它们能够感知并响应诸如说话或音乐之类的声音。)”直接承接前句的“探测”,并引出“响应”的概念,为后文的例子做铺垫。故选E。
【18题详解】
空处位于第三段末尾。空前“Some studies suggest that plants respond more favorably to female voices than male voices due to differences in pitch (音高) and frequency. Music types like classical or jazz have shown positive results, while loud rock music may stress plants. Ultimately, regularity and loudness may influence the result.(一些研究表明,植物对女性声音的反应比对男性声音的反应更为积极,这是因为声音的音调和频率存在差异。像古典音乐或爵士乐这类音乐类型显示出积极的效果,而响亮的摇滚音乐可能会对植物产生压力。最终,规律性和音量大小可能会对结果产生影响。)”讨论了植物对不同声音(如女声与男声、古典乐与摇滚乐)的反应差异,并指出规律性和音量可能影响结果。空白处需要填入一个能概括或总结本段大意的句子。F项“Gentle and calm sounds seem to create vibrations that are more beneficial for plants.(轻柔而平静的声音似乎能产生更有益于植物的振动。)”精准概括了本段关于有益声音特征的论述,作为段末结论句恰当。故选F。
【19题详解】
空处位于第四段开头。后文“However, there are enough facts to suggest that plants are sensitive to their environments — including sound.(然而,有足够多的事实表明,植物对它们所处的环境(包括声音)是敏感的。)”以“However”转折,引出“有足够事实表明植物对环境敏感”。因此,空白处应填入一个与后文构成转折关系的否定陈述。D项“We haven’t proven talking to plants directly speeds growth.(我们尚未证明直接与植物对话能加快其生长速度。)”是一个否定事实,与后文的肯定性论述形成鲜明对比,逻辑通顺。故选D。
【20题详解】
空前“Talking to plants may not be magic, but it does encourage a deeper connection with nature, mindful gardening, and perhaps even a little extra vibrational help.(与植物交流或许并非什么神奇之举,但它确实能增进人与自然的紧密联系、促进有意识的园艺活动,甚至可能带来些许额外的“能量”助力。)”提到与植物交谈的好处,空后“Either way, your plant may thank you in its own green way.(不管怎样,你的植物或许会以自己独特的绿色方式来感谢你。)”说“无论哪种方式,你的植物可能会感谢你”。空白处需要填入一个能引出“两种方式”的句子。C项“You might rely on science or just care for plants well.(你可以依靠科学知识,也可以精心照料植物。)”提出了两种可能的态度或做法,与后文“Either way”直接呼应,衔接紧密。故选C。
