2. As great as history is,it isn't always very fun.As you try to remember dates and who's who,you can get bored.But that's where Horrible Histories comes to the rescue.
As an Englishman,when asked to recommend (推荐) a book about my country's history to young readers,the decision was pretty easy.Horrible Histories has become loved across the country,covering many parts of world history with very British humor and a focus on the bad and ugly.So of course,how they look at their home country is no different.
The Horrible Histories book on England starts right from the beginning of England's earliest people,which it calls "Barmy Britons".The book explains that England got its name from the Angles people,whose land was Angle﹣land,which went on to become England.
The book talks about how England "was said to be the most haunted country in the world" in the chapter "Creepy country".And it also has other great chapters showing strange histories in England with "Batty beliefs and curious customs" and "Cruel criminal".
The "Cruel criminal" chapter talks about the legend of one of England's classic heroes,Robin Hood,who was famous for stealing from the rich and giving to the poor.But it turns out that real﹣life Robin Hood might not have been as heroic as we thought.
One of the great strengths of Horrible Histories is that it gets rid of the legendary side of history by telling the truth.So get a look at the ugly and horrible side of history with Horrible Histories.

A.By raising questions.
B.By telling stories.
C.By listing facts.
(2)Why has Horrible Histories become a hit across the UK? B
A.Because it is a horrible book.

C.Because it talks a lot about the beginning of England's earliest people.
(3)What is the meaning of the underlined word "creepy" in Paragraph Four? A
A.怪异的
B.残忍的
C.有创意的
(4)What is the purpose of the writer in giving us the example of "Robin Hood"? B
A.To tell us Robin Hood is one of England's classic heroes.
B.To show us that there are many sides to the same character.
C.To call on us to steal from the rich and give it to the poor.
【分析】本文主要介绍了《可怕的历史》这本书如何以英式幽默和独特的视角讲述英国历史,让历史学习变得有趣。
【解答】(1)推理判断题。根据第一段 As great as history is,it isn't always very fun.As you try to remember dates and who's who,you can get bored.But that's where Horrible Histories comes to the rescue.(尽管历史很伟大,但并不总是很有趣。当你试图记住日期和谁是谁时,你可能会感到无聊。但这就是可怕的历史来拯救的地方。)可知,引出历史有时枯燥的问题,随后引出《可怕的历史》这本书作为解决方案,因此是通过陈述事实来引出话题的,故选C。
(2)细节理解题。根据第二段中Horrible Histories has become loved across the country,covering many parts of world history with very British humor and a focus on the bad and ugly.(《可怕的历史》在全国范围内广受欢迎,它以非常英式的幽默涵盖了世界历史的许多方面,并专注于糟糕和丑陋的部分。)可知,这本书受欢迎的原因是其英式幽默和对丑陋历史的关注,故选B。
(3)词义猜测题。根据第四段中The book talks about how England "was said to be the most haunted country in the world" in the chapter "Creepy country".(这本书在"……国家"一章中谈到了英国"据说是世界上最闹鬼的国家"。)可知,英国是世界上闹鬼最多的国家,这种描述是怪异的感觉,划线单词"creepy"意思是"怪异的",故选A。
(4)主旨大意题。根据第五段 The "Cruel criminal" chapter talks about the legend of one of England's classic heroes,Robin Hood,who was famous for stealing from the rich and giving to the poor.But it turns out that real﹣life Robin Hood might not have been as heroic as we thought.("残酷的罪犯"一章讲述了英国经典英雄之一罗宾汉的传说,他以偷窃富人、施舍穷人而闻名。但事实证明,现实生活中的罗宾汉可能并不像我们想象的那么英勇。)可知,作者举"罗宾汉"的例子,指出真实的罗宾汉可能并不像传说中那样英勇,以此说明同一个角色可能有多个侧面,历史并非只有传奇的一面,故选B。
【点评】答阅读题时,先弄清楚短文的主旨大意和文章的脉络,然后在文章中找到对应的信息,再和选项作对比,得出正确答案。
3. The rise of AI doctors is not like something from science fiction anymore.It's really happening now.In different parts of China,we can see clearly that artificial intelligence is bringing big changes to the medical field.
In February 2025,Beijing Children's Hospital did something important.They brought in the country's first AI doctor.There was a difficult case.An 8﹣year﹣old boy had sudden and hard﹣to﹣explain seizures (癫痫).Thirteen top experts were trying hard to find the best treatment.At the same time,the AI quickly looked at the boy's medical history and symptoms.It had learned from a lot of data from over 300 pediatric (儿科的) specialists.In just a few minutes,it came up with a treatment plan that was very much like what the human doctors thought.Also,it could quickly find the latest medical research,which really helped make the diagnoses (诊断) faster.
In Shandong,a parent was very worried when their child had a fever.They decided to try DeepSeek.After putting in the blood test results,the AI said it was probably a bacterial infection and suggested some medicine.And guess what?When they went to the hospital,the doctor gave the exact same medicine,and even the amount was the same.
Even in places with not many medical resources,like some community clinics in Wuhan and rural areas in Shandong,AI is helping.In Wuhan,hospitals can now use AI to look at CT scans in less than a minute.Before,it took hours.In rural Shandong,there are AI systems that help patients tell about their symptoms and even make it easier for disabled people to move around in the hospital.
All these real﹣life examples show us two important things AI can do.It can help top doctors make better choices and it can also make healthcare easier for everyone in the country.But,there are still some talks going on.As one doctor said, "AI can give us ideas,but the care and judgment that humans give is something we still need."
(1)What can we know about the AI doctor at Beijing Children's Hospital? B
A.It is slower than human doctors in analyzing medical data.
B.It depends on data from human experts to make decisions.
C.It can work by itself without human help.
(2)Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage? C
A. ①/②③/④⑤
B. ①②/③④/⑤
C. ①/②③④/⑤
(3)What is the doctor's opinion about AI in the medical field? A
A.AI can provide ideas,but human care and judgment are still needed.
B.AI should replace human doctors completely.
C.AI is only useful for research purposes.
(4)What is the main idea of the article? C
A.AI doctors are taking the place of human doctors in China.
B.AI is causing problems in the medical field.
C.AI is changing healthcare and making it more efficient.
【分析】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲述人工智能在我国医疗领域的应用案例,展现其提升医疗效率、优化医疗服务的作用,同时指出人类关怀与判断仍不可或缺。
【解答】(1)细节理解题。根据第②段"It had learned from a lot of data from over 300 pediatric specialists."(它从300多名儿科专家的大量数据中学习。)可知,它从300多名儿科专家的大量数据中学习,所以北京儿童医院的人工智能医生依靠人类专家的数据来做决策,故选B。
(2)篇章结构题。根据文章可知,第①段总起点明人工智能给医疗领域带来巨变,②③④段分述不同的应用案例,第⑤段总结AI的作用并指出人类的关怀和判断仍不可或缺,文章结构为总﹣分﹣总,故选C。
(3)细节理解题。根据第⑤段"As one doctor said, 'AI can give us ideas,but the care and judgment that humans give is something we still need.'"(正如一位医生所说,'AI可以给我们想法,但人类给予的关心和判断是我们仍然需要的。')可知,医生认为人工智能能为我们提供想法,但人类所给予的关怀与判断力仍是我们所需要的,故选A。
(4)主旨大意题。根据第①段"The rise of AI doctors is not like something from science fiction anymore.It's really happening now.In different parts of China,we can see clearly that artificial intelligence is bringing big changes to the medical field."(人工智能医生的兴起不再像是科幻小说中的东西。现在真的发生了。在中国的不同地方,我们可以清楚地看到,人工智能正在给医疗领域带来大的变化。)和全文可知,文章讲述了人工智能给中国医疗领域带来了巨大变革,人工智能正在改变医疗保健并使其更高效,故选C。

(2)细节理解题。根据表格 "Activities:a speech from the headmaster,some wonderful performances like singing and dancing,a chance provided for graduates to thank their teachers and parents." (活动:校长致辞,精彩的歌舞表演,毕业生感谢老师和家长的机会。)可知,活动包括听校长演讲、欣赏精彩表演以及毕业生有机会感谢老师和家长,并没有提到可以收到别人的感谢。故选B。
【点评】在通读全文的基础上,根据全文大意,展开逻辑思维,瞻前顾后,认真观察选项,仔细推敲,确定最佳答案。
5. Human actions are affecting the environment.We will lose more of the natural world if we don't try to change things.Though it is difficult,we can make a difference.Each small change is important,and luckily more individuals(个人) and organizations are working on conservation(保护) projects.
Samson,an African fisherman,has become a voice for the ocean.He and the other fishermen realized they were catching fewer and fewer fish.They were overfishing.Working with the World Wide Fund for Nature(WWF).Samson learned they had to fish more carefully.He realized they shouldn't catch so many young fish because if there are too few of them,there won't be enough adult fish to reproduce.He believes protecting the ocean is everybody's job.As he says,"Take your responsibilities and never think that you are alone.
In Florida,the Sea Turtle Conservancy(STC) noticed there were always plenty of single﹣use plastic items,like bottles and drinking straws(吸管),on the beaches.These items can hurt the ocean wildlife terribly.Straws are especially dangerous for turtles because they can get stuck in turtles' noses and hurt them badly.So,the STC started the project "Where are the straws?"asking local restaurants to stop giving customers straws with their drinks.Now,restaurants will only give straws if customers ask for them,and they only give out paper straws.
Those are just two examples of the many conservation efforts around the world today.They both show us that change is possible and that it can start with small actions.We are part of the problem.It's time to be part of the solution.
(1)What does the underlined word "them" in paragraph 2 refer to? A
A.Young fish.
B.Oceans.
C.Fishermen.
(2)What would happen through STC's efforts? B

A.
B.
C.
(4)Which can be the best title for the text? C
A.Playing a role in stopping plastic straws.
B.Becoming a voice for saving young fish.
C.Making a difference to the natural world.
【分析】本文通过非洲渔民Samson的渔业保护行动和佛罗里达STC的塑料吸管限制项目,说明人类可以通过小行动改善环境问题。
【解答】(1)代词指代题。根据第二段He realized they shouldn't catch so many young fish because if there are too few of them,there won't be enough adult fish to reproduce. (他意识到他们不应该捕捉那么多幼鱼,因为如果幼鱼太少,就没有足够的成年鱼来繁殖。)可知,下划线的 "them" 指代前文提到的 "young fish"。故选A。
(2)细节理解题。根据第三段So,the STC started the project "Where are the straws?"asking local restaurants to stop giving customers straws with their drinks.Now,restaurants will only give straws if customers ask for them,and they only give out paper straws.(因此,STC启动了"吸管在哪里?",要求当地餐馆停止向顾客提供饮料吸管。现在,餐馆只会在顾客要求时才会提供吸管,而且他们只发放纸质吸管。)可知,STC的努力会减少海滩上的塑料吸管数量。故选B。
(3)篇章结构题。根据第一段Human actions are affecting the environment.We will ﹣lose more of the natural world if we don't try to change things.Though it is difficult,we can make a difference.Each small change is important,and luckily more individuals(个人) and organizations are working on conservation(保护) projects.(人类活动正在影响环境。如果我们不尝试改变,我们将失去更多的自然世界。虽然很难,但我们可以有所作为。每一个小小的改变都很重要,幸运的是,越来越多的个人和组织正在致力于保护项目。)和通读全文,文章第一段提出"人类行为影响环境,每个人的小改变都重要":第二段讲述渔民Samson与WWF合作保护海洋的案例;第三段介绍STC通过减少塑料吸管保护海龟的案例;第四段总结这些努力证明改变可行,呼吁人们参与解决问题。结构为"总一分一总",故选B。
(4)标题归纳题。根据第一段Human actions are affecting the environment.We will ﹣lose more of the natural world if we don't try to change things.Though it is difficult,we can make a difference.Each small change is important,and luckily more individuals(个人) and organizations are working on conservation(保护) projects.(人类活动正在影响环境。如果我们不尝试改变,我们将失去更多的自然世界。虽然很难,但我们可以有所作为。每一个小小的改变都很重要,幸运的是,越来越多的个人和组织正在致力于保护项目。)和通读全文,全文通过渔民和STC的案例,强调个人和小行动对自然保护的积极影响,最贴合标题的是选项C"为自然世界带来改变"。故选C。
【点评】通读全文,理解文章大意,阅读题目后返回原文阅读并找出与题目相对应的内容,仔细核对,选择符合原文原意的答案,完成后再次阅读并检查。
6. Over the past ten years,China has achieved excellent development,and its high﹣speed rail system stands out as a clear proof(证明).On December 29,2025,four new high﹣speed rail lines—Xi'an﹣Yan'an,Shanghai﹣Chongqing﹣Chengdu,Wuhan﹣Yichang and Hangzhou﹣Quzhou—started services.With these new additions,China's total operating high﹣speed rail mileage(里程)has passed 50,000 kilometers,which is more than the total length of all high﹣speed rail lines in the rest of the world.
Today,the high﹣speed rail network covers 97% of Chinese cities with a population of over 500,000,completely changing people's travel experience.Traveling between cities within 500 kilometers takes only one to two hours,and a1,000﹣kilometer journey takes about four hours.An average of 16 million passengers take high﹣speed rail every day.This is a far cry from the past,when buying train tickets during busy seasons was a headache and the average train speed was only 60 kilometers per hour.
High﹣speed rail now connects big cities with medium and small towns,driving tourism and local industries.For example,after the Hangzhou﹣Changsha high﹣speed rail opened in 2014,Jiangxi Province﹣located between the two cities﹣saw a huge increase of 248 million tourists in ten years.Moreover,China has shared its technology and experience with over 40 countries,cooperating on projects.From importing(引进) technology to becoming a global leader,China's high﹣speed rail is a proud symbol of the country's progress,and faster maglev(磁悬浮)trains are being studied for even better development in the future.
(1)When did China's high﹣speed rail mileage reach over 50,000 kilometers? C
A.In 2014.
B.In 2024.
C.In 2025.
(2)Which city is most likely to be covered by China's high﹣speed rail? C
A.A city with 300,000 people.
B.A city with 400,000 people.
C.A city with 600,000 people.
(3)What does the underlined phrase"a far cry"in paragraph 2 probably mean? B
A.非常相似
B.大不相同
C.一模一样
(4)What is the main idea of the passage? C
A.The history of China's high﹣speed rail technology.
B.How to improve high﹣speed rail services in the future.
C.China's high﹣speed rail:achievements and influences.
【分析】短文主要讲述了中国高铁在过去十年取得的显著成就。
【解答】(1)细节理解题。根据文章第一段"On December 29,2025,four new high﹣speed rail lines...started services.With these new additions,China's total operating high﹣speed rail mileage has passed 50,000 kilometers"(2025年12月29日,四条新高铁线路开通运营。随着这些新线路的加入,中国高铁运营总里程突破5万公里)可知,中国高铁里程在2025 年突破5万公里。故选C。
(2)推理判断题。根据文章第二段"Today,the high﹣speed rail network covers 97% of Chinese cities with a population of over 500,000,completely changing people's travel experience."(如今,高铁网络覆盖了中国97%的50万以上人口城市,彻底改变了人们的旅行体验。)可知,高铁网络覆盖了中国97%的50万以上人口城市,因而人口60万的城市最有可能被高铁覆盖。故选C。
(3)词义猜测题。根据文章第二段"Traveling between cities within 500 kilometers takes only one to two hours,and a1,000﹣kilometer journey takes about four hours......This is a far cry from the past,when buying train tickets during busy seasons was a headache and the average train speed was only 60 kilometers per hour."(在500公里以内的城市之间旅行只需要一到两个小时,而1000公里的旅程需要大约4个小时......这与过去.....,过去旺季买票令人头疼,火车平均时速仅60公里)可知,前文描述现在高铁便捷高效,后文描述过去交通不便,前后形成鲜明对比,因此"a far cry"意为 "大不相同"。故选B。
(4)主旨大意题。根据第一段"Over the past ten years,China has achieved excellent development,and its high﹣speed rail system stands out as a clear proof(证明)."(10年来,中国取得了举世瞩目的发展成就,高铁就是明证。)结合全文内容可知,文章主要讲述了中国高铁在过去十年取得的显著成就,C选项"中国高铁:成就与影响"最能概括全文主旨。故选C。
【点评】答阅读题时,先弄清楚短文的主旨大意和文章的脉络,然后在文章中找到对应的信息,再和选项作对比,得出正确答案。

◇Be honest when using AI.
If we use AI for a school task,we should tell our teachers about it.Honesty comes first.
◇Don't give away your privacy (隐私).
Never put your name,ID number or phone number into AI tools.This can put your privacy in danger.

11. Have you ever ordered take﹣out food when you're busy?What about a "take﹣out PE class"?This new service has become a hot trend (趋势) among students during summer vacation,letting students exercise right in their neighborhoods without traveling far.Here's how it works:parents simply order a class on an app (手机软件),and a PE teacher arrives with all the sports equipment (器材) needed.Classes include basic fitness training and games like basketball or tennis.One﹣on﹣one lessons usually cost between 200 and 400 yuan per time. "It's so convenient," said Mrs.Wang,whose child is in the third grade.Before,she spent nearly an hour taking her son to the gym. "Now,instead of having classes at the indoor gym or a training center,the teacher comes to the open area downstairs (在楼下) in our neighborhood,and I can even watch him practice from my balcony (阳台)!" she smiled.
These outdoor classes aren't just convenient—they really help kids improve.Mrs.Wang's son used to trip often while jumping rope,but after three weeks of "take﹣out PE classes",he went from 120 to 160 jumps per minute.Since each training plan is made just for one child,it's more helpful than big group classes.
But there are some problems too.Most classes are held in public spaces like parks or community squares,where the ground can be too hard for safer running.Also,with people walking by and cars passing nearby,safety is a worry.
What's more,many parents who choose these classes are preparing their children for high school entrance exams.This "exam﹣first" thinking may change the real purpose of sports—which is not just to pass tests,but to enjoy exercise and keep healthy.
(1)Where do teachers usually give take﹣out PE classes? C
A.At the indoor gym.
B.At a training center.
C.In the students' neighborhood.
(2)What is Mrs.Wang's attitude (态度) to the take﹣out PE class? B
A.Worried.
B.Supportive.
C.Doubtful.
(3)Which is a possible problem of take﹣out PE classes mentioned in the passage? A
A.Running on the hard ground.
B.Spending much time training.
C.Carrying all sports equipment.
(4)What is the main purpose of the passage? C
A.To show how to order take﹣out food.
B.To remind students to prepare for exams.
C.To introduce a new kind of popular PE class.
【分析】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了"外卖体育课"这一新兴服务模式,分析了其便利性、对学生的帮助以及面临的场地和安全问题。
【解答】(1)细节理解题。根据第一段"This new service has become a hot trend (趋势) among students during summer vacation,letting students exercise right in their neighborhoods without traveling far."(这项新服务在暑假期间成为学生中的热门趋势,让学生不用远行就能在社区内进行锻炼。)可知,老师通常在学生的社区里上"外卖体育课",故选C。
(2)细节理解题。根据第二段"'It's so convenient,' said Mrs.Wang,whose child is in the third grade."("太方便了,"王女士说,她的孩子上三年级。)以及"she smiled"(她笑了)可知,王女士对"外卖体育课"持支持态度,故选B。
(3)细节理解题。根据第三段"Most classes are held in public spaces like parks or community squares,where the ground can be too hard for safer running."(大多数课程在公园或社区广场等公共场所举行,那里的地面可能太硬,不适合安全跑步。)可知,在坚硬的地面上跑步是"外卖体育课"可能存在的问题,故选A。
(4)主旨大意题。文章首先介绍了"外卖体育课"这一新趋势,接着阐述了其运作方式、优点、存在的问题以及家长选择此类课程的原因。整篇文章围绕"外卖体育课"这一新型体育课程展开,旨在介绍这一课程并探讨其相关问题。故选C。

12. Iceland is a country in Northern Europe.For a long time,it was famous as one of the few countries in the world with no mosquitoes (蚊子).However,a recent discovery has changed this fact.
The story began on a Thursday in October 2025.Björn,a man who loves studying insects,found a strange insect.He quickly caught it because he thought it might be a mosquito,which was very unusual in Iceland. Astonished by his special find,he continued searching and later discovered two more of the same insects nearby.He carefully collected all of them and sent his findings to a study center.
At the study center,an entomologist (昆虫学家) named Matthias studied the insects.He made sure they were mosquitoes,a special type that can live in very cold winters.This finding was very meaningful.It was the first official record of mosquitoes living outdoors in Iceland.He explained that this type of mosquito is special because it can survive in the cold Icelandic winter.Before this,mosquitoes were only sometimes found on planes arriving in the country,but they never managed to stay alive outside.
The main reason for this change,scientists say,is climate (气候) change.As our planet becomes warmer,insects can move to and live in new areas.Iceland is warming at a speed of four times faster than the average in the Northern Hemisphere (北半球).This rapid warming makes the environment more suitable for mosquitoes.
This discovery ends Iceland's long history of being a mosquito﹣free country.It clearly shows that even a small rise in temperature can bring great changes—it allows animals to live in places where they could not survive before.
(1)What do we know about Iceland? B
A.It is in Southern Europe.
B.It had no mosquitoes for a long time.
C.It is famous for a special kind of mosquito.
(2)What does the underlined word "astonished" in paragraph 2 mean? C
A.悲伤的
B.疲倦的
C.惊讶的
(3)Why is Iceland a more suitable place for mosquitoes now? B
A.Because of people's help.
B.Because of the warmer climate.
C.Because of more plane arrivals.
(4)Which of the following would the writer most probably agree with? C
A.Many hands make light work.
B.The early bird catches the worm.
C.A small change makes a big difference.
【分析】本文说明冰岛曾无蚊子,2025年发现户外存活的特殊蚊子,成因是气候变暖,体现了温度微升的巨大影响。
【解答】(1)细节理解题。根据第一段"For a long time,it was famous as one of the few countries in the world with no mosquitoes"(很长一段时间,它作为世界上少数几个没有蚊子的国家而闻名),这直接说明冰岛长期以来没有蚊子。故选B。
(2)词义猜测题。根据第二段"he thought it might be a mosquito,which was very unusual in Iceland"(他认为可能是蚊子,这在冰岛很少见),结合"astonished by his special find"(对他的特殊发现感到惊讶)可知,在冰岛发现罕见的蚊子这一特殊发现,能推断出"astonished"意为"惊讶的"。故选C。
(3)细节理解题。根据第四段"The main reason for this change,scientists say,is climate (气候) change.As our planet becomes warmer,insects can move to and live in new areas.Iceland is warming at a speed of four times faster than the average in the Northern Hemisphere (北半球).This rapid warming makes the environment more suitable for mosquitoes."(科学家说,这种变化的主要原因是气候的改变。随着我们的星球变得越来越温暖,昆虫可以搬到新的地方生活。冰岛变暖的速度是北半球平均速度的四倍。这种快速变暖使得环境更适合蚊子生存。),说明现在冰岛更适合蚊子生存是因为气候变暖。故选B。
(4)推理判断题。根据最后一段"It clearly shows that even a small rise in temperature can bring great changes"(它清楚地表明,即使气温上升很小,也会带来巨大的变化),这与"小变化带来大不同"的理念一致,因此作者最可能认同"A small change makes a big difference"。故选C。

He fell to the ground and his heart stopped.He needed help at once,or he would die.Doctors say fewer than 12% of people survive if they have a serious heart problem outside a hospital.Pham's only chance was if someone,like a heart doctor,happened to pass by.
Well...Just as Pham hit the ground,Chiu,a heart doctor,was leaving a restaurant a few steps away.Seeing what happened,Dr.Chiu ran to help Pham and called his hospital to get ready.
Minutes later,Pham was rushed to the hospital with Dr.Chiu following in his car.The heart surgery (手术) that Dr.Chiu did was a success,and Pham is alive and well enough to return to the Long Beach Half Marathon to finish the race.
"I'm that person," he told the Long Beach Post. "I'm going back and finishing the last 2 miles."
Pham wouldn't have been able to return to the race without Dr.Chiu's help.After breakfast,Chiu's friend asked him to stay a few minutes so they could take in the beauty of the sea.Dr.Chiu didn't leave the restaurant as planned,so he was there to see Pham fall.

15. In December 2025,a concert in Chengdu surprised everyone when six robots danced on stage (舞台) with a singer.They followed the music and copied the human dancers,surprising the crowd of 18,000 people.
The robot dancers are called Unitree G1 and are made by a Chinese company,Unitree Robotics.Each one is about 1.3 metres tall (almost as tall as a 10﹣year﹣old pupil) and weighs 35 kilograms.Though not very big,they are strong and fast.Their human﹣like shape—with a head,arms,legs,and body—helps them move easily on stage.At the concert,they even wore shiny clothes to look like the human dancers.
The robots can dance because of the smart technology inside them.Each robot has 23 joints (关节) that help their bodies move,just like human shoulders and knees.The robots use sensors (感应器) to stay balanced (平衡的).These sensors tell them if they are standing straight or about to fall.A fast computer inside each robot works like a brain,reading this information thousands of times every second.All the dance moves were carefully planned and programmed before the concert.This allowed the robots to dance perfectly.
The robot dance in Chengdu shows us a small picture of the future.Robots may one day be seen in schools,hospitals,factories,and shows.As technology gets better,robots will become more helpful and safer.This concert shows us that the future is not "humans vs robots".It is humans and robots working together to create something better.

17. For most people,Chinese characters seem like symbols which look really hard to understand.However,Lena,a 20﹣year﹣old American college student,sees them in a special way.To her,each character tells a story.Shepictures"ren"(person)as a cat's face,and "ceng"(once) as an angry robot.
Lena got popular after she spent 30 minutes drawing"ceng""and put it on rednote.Surprisingly,this simple drawing got 40,000 likes overnight.Now,her creative artworks raise discussions about language,art,and culture.
Lena grew up around many Asian families.She was always interested in different languages and cultures."When I was little,I had Chinese friends.I loved their names on lunch boxes.The writing was so new and different to me,"Lena remembered.That childhood interest came back in college when she took a course about US﹣China relations.It made her more interested in modern Chinese culture.
While on rednote,Lena noticed more characters that looked like everyday objects.She said she was full of imagination and often saw small details(细节) that others missed.
Besides drawing,Lena translated all her posts into Chinese to show respect to her followers.This helped her make Chinese friends online.They talked about daily life and food.Some followers said Lena understood the beauty of Chinese characters better than many Chinese people."It's because you're used to them,"Lena said.For example,she learned from Chinese friends that "orz" looks like a person who is so dejected(沮丧的) that he falls to his knees.But in English,it is just three letters."It's something I never thought of.That's what happens when a foreigner looks at unfamiliar characters,"she said.
Lena plans to share more character art on rednote.Her story shows that language is more than words.It's about making connections and seeing the world through someone else's eyes.

A.Pictures.
B.Symbols.
C.English letters.
(2)What deepened Lena's interest in modern Chinese culture? C

18. If you want to praise frogs(青蛙),here's one new fact:they may be able to tell when an earthquake is coming.A scientific study found that frogs leave a place right before a quake hits.
The study followed a group of frogs in Italy.It seems that a few years ago,they suddenly left their home five days before an earthquake hit.No one knows for sure how frogs sense the danger,but 96 percent of the frogs ran away.They returned a day after the danger passed.
Dr.Rachel Grant couldn't believe her eyes when she found this.She wasn't studying earthquakes—she was studying how the moon influences frogs.Now she believes frogs may pick up on small signs and use them as an early warning for earthquakes.
Frogs are not the only animal with this unusual power.In 2004,elephants in Thailand made loud noises before the tsunami(海啸) hit.At the same time,bats in Sri Lanka flew around nervously before the disaster(灾难).
Most of the time,people don't notice these warnings.But sometimes they do.In 1975,scientists in Haicheng,China saw dogs and cats acting strangely.They asked everyone to get out of the city because they thought something big was coming.Five and a half hours later,an earthquake hit.Around 2,000 people died.Without the animals' warning,150,000 more could have been killed.
"Some sounds are simply inaudible to humans.But many animals can hear them.Fish and sharks use electroreception(电感知能力) to 'see' around them,while dolphins(海豚) and bats use sonar(声纳) to find their way around,"says Professor Daniel Mills,an expert in animal behavior at Lincoln University.
(1)How did Dr.Rachel Grant feel when she found the frogs' unusual behavior? B
A.Worried.
B.Surprised.
C.Disappointed.
(2)Why does the writer talk about elephants and bats? B
A.To tell people they can make loud noises.
B.To show other animals also sense danger.
C.To suggest they are more powerful than frogs.
(3)What does the underlined word "inaudible" mean in Paragraph 6? A
A.听不见的
B.看不到的
C.尝不出的
(4)What is the main idea of the passage? C
A.Frogs are interesting animals.
B.Earthquakes are very dangerous.
C.Animals may help tell disasters.
【分析】短文指出研究发现青蛙可能在地震来临前感知危险并提前逃离,科学家认为它们能捕捉细微迹象作为地震预警。除青蛙外,大象、蝙蝠等动物在海啸等灾难前也有异常表现。动物的这些预警信号常被人类忽视,但合理利用能有效减少灾害伤亡,这源于动物拥有人类不具备的特殊感知能力。
【解答】(1)细节理解题。根据第三段"Dr.Rachel Grant couldn't believe her eyes when she found this."(雷切尔・格兰特博士发现这一现象时,简直不敢相信自己的眼睛。)可知,她感到非常惊讶。故选B。

(3)词义猜测题。根据第六段 "Some sounds are simply inaudible to humans.But many animals can hear them."(有些声音对人类来说完全是听不见的,但许多动物能听到。)可知,此处表转折,有些声音许多动物能听到,但对人类来说完全是"听不见的","inaudible"意为"听不见的"。故选A。
(4)主旨大意题。根据倒数第二段"Around 2,000 people died.Without the animals' warning,150,000 more could have been killed."(大约2000人死亡。如果没有动物的警告,可能会有15万多人被杀。)结合全文内容可知,文章通过青蛙、大象、蝙蝠、猫狗等动物在灾难前的异常表现,说明动物可能帮助人类预判灾难。故选C。

21. When you meet someone for the first time,you will get a quick idea in your mind of that person in the first moment.Your feelings about other people,however,are really just show the way that you look at yourself.
So you can allow others to be the mirror (镜子) to see your own feelings of self﹣worth more clearly.And,you can see the people you don't like as mirrors to show you what you are not accepting about yourself.
To live peacefully with others,you will need to learn patience.A big challenge is to let your judgment (评判) of others be a lifelong research of yourself.Your task is to consider all the judgments you make onto others carefully and to begin to see whether you can use them to help yourself to become better.
Several days ago,I had a business lunch with a man who showed objectionable table manners.My first feeling was that he was impolite.When I noticed that I was judging him,I stopped and asked myself what I was feeling.I discovered that I was nervous to be seen with someone who was eating with his mouth open.I was very surprised to find how much I cared about how the other people in the restaurant judged me.
Remember that your judgment of someone will not stop you from becoming like him.Although I think my lunch partner impolite,it does not prevent me from looking or acting like him.In the same way,my patience to him would not make me eat food with my mouth open.
When you get close to life in this way,those whom you hate and those whom you love can be seen as mirrors,guiding you to discover parts of yourself that you dislike and to accept your greatest person abilities you are proud of.

The rise of AI doctors is not like something from science fiction anymore.It's really happening now.In different parts of China,we can see clearly that artificial intelligence is bringing big changes to the medical field.
In February 2025,Beijing Children's Hospital did something important.They brought in the country's first AI doctor.There was a difficult case.An 8﹣year﹣old boy had sudden and hard﹣to﹣explain seizures (癫痫).Thirteen top experts were trying hard to find the best treatment.At the same time,the AI quickly looked at the boy's medical history and symptoms.It had learned from a lot of data from over 300 pediatric (儿科的) specialists.In just a few minutes,it came up with a treatment plan that was very much like what the human doctors thought.Also,it could quickly find the latest medical research,which really helped make the diagnoses (诊断) faster.
In Shandong,a parent was very worried when their child had a fever.They decided to try DeepSeek.After putting in the blood test results,the AI said it was probably a bacterial infection and suggested some medicine.And guess what?When they went to the hospital,the doctor gave the exact same medicine,and even the amount was the same.
Even in places with not many medical resources,like some community clinics in Wuhan and rural areas in Shandong,AI is helping.In Wuhan,hospitals can now use AI to look at CT scans in less than a minute.Before,it took hours.In rural Shandong,there are AI systems that help patients tell about their symptoms and even make it easier for disabled people to move around in the hospital.
All these real﹣life examples show us two important things AI can do.It can help top doctors make better choices and it can also make healthcare easier for everyone in the country.But,there are still some talks going on.As one doctor said, "AI can give us ideas,but the care and judgment that humans give is something we still need."
(1)What can we know about the AI doctor at Beijing Children's Hospital?
A.It is slower than human doctors in analyzing medical data.
B.It depends on data from human experts to make decisions.
C.It can work by itself without human help.
(2)Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?
A. ①/②③/④⑤
B. ①②/③④/⑤
C. ①/②③④/⑤
(3)What is the doctor's opinion about AI in the medical field?
A.AI can provide ideas,but human care and judgment are still needed.
B.AI should replace human doctors completely.
C.AI is only useful for research purposes.
(4)What is the main idea of the article?
A.AI doctors are taking the place of human doctors in China.
B.AI is causing problems in the medical field.
C.AI is changing healthcare and making it more efficient.

Human actions are affecting the environment.We will lose more of the natural world if we don't try to change things.Though it is difficult,we can make a difference.Each small change is important,and luckily more individuals(个人) and organizations are working on conservation(保护) projects.
Samson,an African fisherman,has become a voice for the ocean.He and the other fishermen realized they were catching fewer and fewer fish.They were overfishing.Working with the World Wide Fund for Nature(WWF).Samson learned they had to fish more carefully.He realized they shouldn't catch so many young fish because if there are too few of them,there won't be enough adult fish to reproduce.He believes protecting the ocean is everybody's job.As he says,"Take your responsibilities and never think that you are alone.
In Florida,the Sea Turtle Conservancy(STC) noticed there were always plenty of single﹣use plastic items,like bottles and drinking straws(吸管),on the beaches.These items can hurt the ocean wildlife terribly.Straws are especially dangerous for turtles because they can get stuck in turtles' noses and hurt them badly.So,the STC started the project "Where are the straws?"asking local restaurants to stop giving customers straws with their drinks.Now,restaurants will only give straws if customers ask for them,and they only give out paper straws.
Those are just two examples of the many conservation efforts around the world today.They both show us that change is possible and that it can start with small actions.We are part of the problem.It's time to be part of the solution.
(1)What does the underlined word "them" in paragraph 2 refer to?
A.Young fish.
B.Oceans.
C.Fishermen.
(2)What would happen through STC's efforts?
A.More and more tourists would relax on the beaches.
B.There would be fewer plastic straws on the beaches。
C.Customers would buy more drinks from restaurants.
(3)What is the structure of the text?(P=paragraph)
A. B. C.
(4)Which can be the best title for the text?
A.Playing a role in stopping plastic straws.
B.Becoming a voice for saving young fish.
C.Making a difference to the natural world.

Over the past ten years,China has achieved excellent development,and its high﹣speed rail system stands out as a clear proof(证明).On December 29,2025,four new high﹣speed rail lines—Xi'an﹣Yan'an,Shanghai﹣Chongqing﹣Chengdu,Wuhan﹣Yichang and Hangzhou﹣Quzhou—started services.With these new additions,China's total operating high﹣speed rail mileage(里程)has passed 50,000 kilometers,which is more than the total length of all high﹣speed rail lines in the rest of the world.
Today,the high﹣speed rail network covers 97% of Chinese cities with a population of over 500,000,completely changing people's travel experience.Traveling between cities within 500 kilometers takes only one to two hours,and a1,000﹣kilometer journey takes about four hours.An average of 16 million passengers take high﹣speed rail every day.This is a far cry from the past,when buying train tickets during busy seasons was a headache and the average train speed was only 60 kilometers per hour.
High﹣speed rail now connects big cities with medium and small towns,driving tourism and local industries.For example,after the Hangzhou﹣Changsha high﹣speed rail opened in 2014,Jiangxi Province﹣located between the two cities﹣saw a huge increase of 248 million tourists in ten years.Moreover,China has shared its technology and experience with over 40 countries,cooperating on projects.From importing(引进) technology to becoming a global leader,China's high﹣speed rail is a proud symbol of the country's progress,and faster maglev(磁悬浮)trains are being studied for even better development in the future.

Liao Wenting,who grew up in a small town in Gansu Province,is now wearing the head﹣mounted display (头戴式显示器) in a modern classroom.The classroom is newly built in her school.Covering 137 square metres,the classroom has multimedia (多媒体的) teaching systems,VR headsets,3 D printers and other high﹣tech equipment.
The high﹣tech equipment was given away by Tencent.This is the first classroom of its kind in Gansu.The company also offered free training services to the school's IT teachers and organized scientific and technological competitions to encourage students to continue exploring the field of technology.
Ma Feiya,a student at the school,used a 3 D printer to create a pencil box with her own design. "It was an amazing experience to see my model come to life," she says. "I am eager (渴望) to explore more possibilities in this field in the classroom."
In 2020,Tencent started the project named Future Classrooms with the goal of improving the learning environment for students in poor areas.By the end of August 2024,48 such "classrooms" had been built and put into use in many cities,and over 1.15 million students had benefited (受益).
Yu Jinghui,a student from a mountainous county in Shaoguan,is one of them.After learning programming for 4 months,he designed a game for his little sister.The game also won him first prize in a provincial competition.He says, "Programming has helped me realize my dream that I could not achieve in real life,which brings me a strong sense of achievement."

Guide for Students on Using Generative AI (生成式人工智能)Generative AI has developed rapidly since 2022,and many students now use it to help with their study.It can make learning easier,but improper use may bring problems.To solve this,the official Guide for Students on Using Generative AI came out in May 2025.Here are some important rules from it.
◇Use it as a helper,not a doer.
We must not copy AI's answers as our homework or exam results.This stops us from thinking independently(独立地).We should finish tasks on our own first.
◇Ask for adults' help.
As junior high students,we should use AI with the help of our teachers or parents.It can help us with our study—for example,we can use it to check our homework.But we shouldn't depend on it too much.
◇Be honest when using AI.
If we use AI for a school task,we should tell our teachers about it.Honesty comes first.
◇Don't give away your privacy (隐私).
Never put your name,ID number or phone number into AI tools.This can put your privacy in danger.

Have you ever ordered take﹣out food when you're busy?What about a "take﹣out PE class"?This new service has become a hot trend (趋势) among students during summer vacation,letting students exercise right in their neighborhoods without traveling far.Here's how it works:parents simply order a class on an app (手机软件),and a PE teacher arrives with all the sports equipment (器材) needed.Classes include basic fitness training and games like basketball or tennis.One﹣on﹣one lessons usually cost between 200 and 400 yuan per time. "It's so convenient," said Mrs.Wang,whose child is in the third grade.Before,she spent nearly an hour taking her son to the gym. "Now,instead of having classes at the indoor gym or a training center,the teacher comes to the open area downstairs (在楼下) in our neighborhood,and I can even watch him practice from my balcony (阳台)!" she smiled.
These outdoor classes aren't just convenient—they really help kids improve.Mrs.Wang's son used to trip often while jumping rope,but after three weeks of "take﹣out PE classes",he went from 120 to 160 jumps per minute.Since each training plan is made just for one child,it's more helpful than big group classes.
But there are some problems too.Most classes are held in public spaces like parks or community squares,where the ground can be too hard for safer running.Also,with people walking by and cars passing nearby,safety is a worry.
What's more,many parents who choose these classes are preparing their children for high school entrance exams.This "exam﹣first" thinking may change the real purpose of sports—which is not just to pass tests,but to enjoy exercise and keep healthy.
(1)Where do teachers usually give take﹣out PE classes?

Iceland is a country in Northern Europe.For a long time,it was famous as one of the few countries in the world with no mosquitoes (蚊子).However,a recent discovery has changed this fact.
The story began on a Thursday in October 2025.Björn,a man who loves studying insects,found a strange insect.He quickly caught it because he thought it might be a mosquito,which was very unusual in Iceland. Astonished by his special find,he continued searching and later discovered two more of the same insects nearby.He carefully collected all of them and sent his findings to a study center.
At the study center,an entomologist (昆虫学家) named Matthias studied the insects.He made sure they were mosquitoes,a special type that can live in very cold winters.This finding was very meaningful.It was the first official record of mosquitoes living outdoors in Iceland.He explained that this type of mosquito is special because it can survive in the cold Icelandic winter.Before this,mosquitoes were only sometimes found on planes arriving in the country,but they never managed to stay alive outside.
The main reason for this change,scientists say,is climate (气候) change.As our planet becomes warmer,insects can move to and live in new areas.Iceland is warming at a speed of four times faster than the average in the Northern Hemisphere (北半球).This rapid warming makes the environment more suitable for mosquitoes.
This discovery ends Iceland's long history of being a mosquito﹣free country.It clearly shows that even a small rise in temperature can bring great changes—it allows animals to live in places where they could not survive before.
(1)What do we know about Iceland?
A.It is in Southern Europe. B.It had no mosquitoes for a long time.
C.It is famous for a special kind of mosquito.
(2)What does the underlined word "astonished" in paragraph 2 mean?

C.惊讶的
(3)Why is Iceland a more suitable place for mosquitoes now?
A.Because of people's help. B.Because of the warmer climate.
C.Because of more plane arrivals.
(4)Which of the following would the writer most probably agree with?

In December 2025,a concert in Chengdu surprised everyone when six robots danced on stage (舞台) with a singer.They followed the music and copied the human dancers,surprising the crowd of 18,000 people.
The robot dancers are called Unitree G1 and are made by a Chinese company,Unitree Robotics.Each one is about 1.3 metres tall (almost as tall as a 10﹣year﹣old pupil) and weighs 35 kilograms.Though not very big,they are strong and fast.Their human﹣like shape—with a head,arms,legs,and body—helps them move easily on stage.At the concert,they even wore shiny clothes to look like the human dancers.
The robots can dance because of the smart technology inside them.Each robot has 23 joints (关节) that help their bodies move,just like human shoulders and knees.The robots use sensors (感应器) to stay balanced (平衡的).These sensors tell them if they are standing straight or about to fall.A fast computer inside each robot works like a brain,reading this information thousands of times every second.All the dance moves were carefully planned and programmed before the concert.This allowed the robots to dance perfectly.
The robot dance in Chengdu shows us a small picture of the future.Robots may one day be seen in schools,hospitals,factories,and shows.As technology gets better,robots will become more helpful and safer.This concert shows us that the future is not "humans vs robots".It is humans and robots working together to create something better.

For most people,Chinese characters seem like symbols which look really hard to understand.However,Lena,a 20﹣year﹣old American college student,sees them in a special way.To her,each character tells a story.Shepictures"ren"(person)as a cat's face,and "ceng"(once) as an angry robot.
Lena got popular after she spent 30 minutes drawing"ceng""and put it on rednote.Surprisingly,this simple drawing got 40,000 likes overnight.Now,her creative artworks raise discussions about language,art,and culture.
Lena grew up around many Asian families.She was always interested in different languages and cultures."When I was little,I had Chinese friends.I loved their names on lunch boxes.The writing was so new and different to me,"Lena remembered.That childhood interest came back in college when she took a course about US﹣China relations.It made her more interested in modern Chinese culture.
While on rednote,Lena noticed more characters that looked like everyday objects.She said she was full of imagination and often saw small details(细节) that others missed.
Besides drawing,Lena translated all her posts into Chinese to show respect to her followers.This helped her make Chinese friends online.They talked about daily life and food.Some followers said Lena understood the beauty of Chinese characters better than many Chinese people."It's because you're used to them,"Lena said.For example,she learned from Chinese friends that "orz" looks like a person who is so dejected(沮丧的) that he falls to his knees.But in English,it is just three letters."It's something I never thought of.That's what happens when a foreigner looks at unfamiliar characters,"she said.
Lena plans to share more character art on rednote.Her story shows that language is more than words.It's about making connections and seeing the world through someone else's eyes.

If you want to praise frogs(青蛙),here's one new fact:they may be able to tell when an earthquake is coming.A scientific study found that frogs leave a place right before a quake hits.
The study followed a group of frogs in Italy.It seems that a few years ago,they suddenly left their home five days before an earthquake hit.No one knows for sure how frogs sense the danger,but 96 percent of the frogs ran away.They returned a day after the danger passed.
Dr.Rachel Grant couldn't believe her eyes when she found this.She wasn't studying earthquakes—she was studying how the moon influences frogs.Now she believes frogs may pick up on small signs and use them as an early warning for earthquakes.
Frogs are not the only animal with this unusual power.In 2004,elephants in Thailand made loud noises before the tsunami(海啸) hit.At the same time,bats in Sri Lanka flew around nervously before the disaster(灾难).
Most of the time,people don't notice these warnings.But sometimes they do.In 1975,scientists in Haicheng,China saw dogs and cats acting strangely.They asked everyone to get out of the city because they thought something big was coming.Five and a half hours later,an earthquake hit.Around 2,000 people died.Without the animals' warning,150,000 more could have been killed.
"Some sounds are simply inaudible to humans.But many animals can hear them.Fish and sharks use electroreception(电感知能力) to 'see' around them,while dolphins(海豚) and bats use sonar(声纳) to find their way around,"says Professor Daniel Mills,an expert in animal behavior at Lincoln University.

When you meet someone for the first time,you will get a quick idea in your mind of that person in the first moment.Your feelings about other people,however,are really just show the way that you look at yourself.
So you can allow others to be the mirror (镜子) to see your own feelings of self﹣worth more clearly.And,you can see the people you don't like as mirrors to show you what you are not accepting about yourself.
To live peacefully with others,you will need to learn patience.A big challenge is to let your judgment (评判) of others be a lifelong research of yourself.Your task is to consider all the judgments you make onto others carefully and to begin to see whether you can use them to help yourself to become better.
Several days ago,I had a business lunch with a man who showed objectionable table manners.My first feeling was that he was impolite.When I noticed that I was judging him,I stopped and asked myself what I was feeling.I discovered that I was nervous to be seen with someone who was eating with his mouth open.I was very surprised to find how much I cared about how the other people in the restaurant judged me.
Remember that your judgment of someone will not stop you from becoming like him.Although I think my lunch partner impolite,it does not prevent me from looking or acting like him.In the same way,my patience to him would not make me eat food with my mouth open.

Fubao,a lovely cat with serious back problems,was once told she would never walk again.But Guo Mengxuan,an animal doctor in Chengdu,decided to try a special treatment—acupuncture(针灸) to help her.
Guo gave Fubao acupuncture three times a week.After three months,something amazing happened:Fubao could stand up,walk and even control her body better.The magic of traditional Chinese veterinary medicine(TCVM)(中兽医学) really worked.
Guo wasn't trained in TCVM at first."I didn't even know there was such a thing,"she said.But now,she treats many animals using both modern and traditional ways.As many as 60 to 70 pets visit her hospital every day.And around 1/10 of them get TCVM care,such as acupuncture,herbs and massage(草药和按摩).On her busiest day,she gave 17 pets acupuncture.
These days,more animal doctors are turning to TCVM,especially for problems like paralysis(瘫痪).Some kinds of dogs,such as French bulldogs,are born with back problems and have a higher risk of becoming paralyzed.Western medicine may offer little hope now,but TCVM can improve their blood movement to help them walk again.
TCVM also helps older pets live more comfortably.Some pets live into their twenties.When they get a serious illness,acupuncture and herbs can help them live better and longer.

This café,No.30 Coffee Lounge,in the heart of Brandon,Suffolk,the UK,has become famous suddenly because of new technology.It has introduced a new AI robot waiter(服务员) named Alphonso.And Alphonso has won the interest and hearts of many customers.
Alphonso is created for cafés and restaurants.With a shiny metal body and good navigation systems(导航系统),it moves smoothly around the small space of No.30 Coffee Lounge.It uses AI to avoid running into things and keep customers safe.Alphonso shows how robots can be great helpers for human waiters,without making the human connection less important.
Alphonso brings something fun and new to the café experience.It does simple jobs,like carrying plates and cleaning tables.This gives human waiters more time to talk to customers and do some important tasks.It not only makes human waiters' work easier,but also turns everyday tasks into fun experiences for visitors,increasing customer satisfaction.
Sometimes,technology makes different age groups feel far from each other.But Alphonso does the opposite—it connects them.From children to old people,everyone likes watching this wonderful robot work.This shows technology can create shared fun that all ages can enjoy.
Now the value of robots is getting more attention—they improve customer service and make work more efficient(高效的).For example,they can take orders quickly and serve food right away,so restaurants don't keep customers waiting long.The change is clear in the UK:more restaurants there are using robots like Alphonso.Globally,the need for service robots is growing,too.And with better AI and robotics,the worldwide market for them may hit £30 billion by 2030.
