During the Middle Ages, ice cream was improved by adding milk as a main ingredient (配料). People also put syrup in it to make the dessert sweeter. In the 13th century, a recipe (食谱) for a frozen milk dessert was introduced from China to Italy. People there further improved it by adding other ingredients. Ice cream became more available to the public in the 17th century. The first advertisement (广告) for it appeared in a newspaper in 1777. In the 19th century, the invention of fridge changed the ice cream industry completely. The fridge made it possible to produce plenty of ice cream, so people could easily get it.

It is famous for growing high-quality roses. There are four main reasons for this. Yutian has great weather for roses. It is dry and warm. The county has long sunshine time—about 2,769.5 hours a year. Roses love sunlight, and this helps them grow well. The soil in Yutian County is perfect. The soil is mostly made up of sand. So water can go through it easily. Roses can grow well in this kind of soil. Many roses here grow deep into the ground—some go 3 meters down. There is enough clean water here. The water comes from the snow on the Kunlun Mountains. It is clean and safe for roses. The clean water also stops diseases from hurting the roses. Besides, people use drip irrigation (滴灌) to water the roses. This saves water and helps the roses grow better. The Three-North Shelterbelt Forest System Project (三北防护林体系建设工程) makes the environment safe for roses. Yutian is near the big desert. Strong winds and moving sand used to be detrimental to plants. But now, the project helps stop wind and fix the sand in place, so roses can grow without these problems. Thanks to those four reasons, Yutian’s roses are loved by people all over China. 1．How long is the sunshine time in Yutian every year? A．About 276.95 hours. B．About 2,769.5 hours. C．About 27,695 hours. D．About 276,950 hours. 2．Which of the following is NOT true about natural conditions in Yutian County? A．The soil there is mostly made up of sand. B．The water can go through the soil easily. C．The water comes from the snow on the Tianshan Mountains. D．The clean water can stop diseases from hurting the roses. 3．What does the underlined word “detrimental” in Paragraph 5 probably mean? A．Strong. B．Clean. C．Safe. D．Harmful. 4．How is the passage organized? (①= Paragraph 1, ②= Paragraph 2, …) A． B． C． D． 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．D 4．B 【导语】本文主要介绍了于田县盛产高品质玫瑰的四个主要原因，包括气候日照、土壤条件、水源灌溉以及环保工程。 1．第二段提到：“The county has long sunshine time—about 2,769.5 hours a year.”，这明确指出了于田县每年的日照时间约为2,769.5小时。 2．第四段提到：“The water comes from the snow on the Kunlun Mountains.”，指出水源来自昆仑山而非选项C中的天山。 3．第五段提到：“Strong winds and moving sand used to be detrimental to plants. But now, the project helps stop wind and fix the sand in place…”，根据下文提到工程解决了这些“问题”可知，强风和流沙曾对植物有害，故可推断detrimental意为“有害的”。 4．第一段总起话题并交代有四个原因；第二至五段分别从日照、土壤、水源、防护林工程四个方面进行分述；第六段总结全篇。文章整体呈现总—分—总的结构。 Passage 6 （2026·新疆和田·二模）The 25th Winter Olympics were held in Italy, from February 6th to 22nd, 2026.

It also looks very beautiful with bright colors. Short videos on apps like Douyin made it popular in a short time. However, some people have different opinions about the snack. One stick of milk skin tanghulu costs 15-40 yuan, even up to 98 yuan in some cities. They think it is too expensive, especially compared with the traditional one. Health experts also warn that eating too much may cause acne (痤疮) or other illness because it has too much sugar and fat. Even with these worries, milk skin tanghulu shows how traditional foods can change with the times.

It uses hawthorns or other fruits covered in sugar, which tastes delicious and are very cheap…It mixes traditional tanghulu with Inner Mongolian milk skin. This creative snack has attracted lots of young people.”说明传统糖葫芦是水果裹糖，奶皮子糖葫芦的核心差异是在水果外裹了一层顺滑的奶皮子，这是二者最本质的区别。 2．第一段“Recently, a new snack called ‘milk skin tanghulu’ has become a big hit in China…This creative snack has attracted lots of young people. Many even wait for three hours to try it!”后文提到这款新品吸引了大量年轻人，甚至有人等3小时尝试，说明它非常受欢迎，因此“a big hit”在此处表示“非常受欢迎的事物”。 3．最后一段“Even with these worries, milk skin tanghulu shows how traditional foods can change with the times.

Did you know most people check their phones over 50 times a day? Many teens feel uneasy when they don’t have their phones nearby. Here’s how to control without giving up your phone. A good way to use your phone less is to pick a special time each day. Choose 30 minutes after school just for phone use. During this time, really focus on what you’re doing, such as watching videos, messaging friends, or playing games on your phone. But when time’s up, put your phone away. Next, fight those phone notifications (通知). Turn off all notices except for important ones. This simple change reduces the brain’s ideas of “check it now”. Without these, you’ll not be pulled to check your phone every minute. Find a place where phones aren’t allowed. Keep your phone out of these three places: the dinner table, your bed and study areas. Try the “Doorway Method”: leave your phone by the front door when you get home, and only check it there when truly needed. Scientists found about 1/3 of phone time is just habit, not because it’s fun. That’s why the methods are mentioned above. By making such small changes, you can save over 2 hours daily to read, play outside, or try a new hobby. 1．What is suggested as a “special time” for phone use in Paragraph 2? A．Half an hour before going to bed. B．During the homework hours. C．Half an hour after school. D．While having dinner with family. 2．Where should you leave your phone when using the “Doorway Method”? A．On the dinner table. B．In your study area. C．By the front door. D．Under your bed. 3．Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． 4．What’s the main purpose of this passage? A．To tell people not to use their phones. B．To help people use phones less. C．To show how to buy a good phone. D．To describe how popular phones are. 【答案】1．C 2．C 3．A 4．B 【导语】本文主要介绍了减少手机使用的实用方法。 1．第二段“A good way to use your phone less is to pick a special time each day. Choose 1 minutes after school just for phone use.”明确提出“放学后的1分钟”作为专门的手机使用时间。 2．第四段“Try the ‘Doorway Method’: leave your phone by the front door when you get home, and only check it there when truly needed.”Doorway Method的要求是把手机放在前门旁。 3．①段：总起，提出“过度用手机有问题，下文将介绍控制方法”；②③④段：分述减少手机使用的具体方法；⑤段：总结，说明这些方法能帮人们节省时间，对应A项。 4．全文围绕“如何在不放弃手机的前提下减少使用”展开，所有方法的核心目的都是帮助人们减少手机使用，对应选项B。 Passage 9 （2026·新疆·一模）We can connect with nature in many ways, like watching clouds or growing flowers. But one of the easiest ways is to sit or lie on the grass and feel the earth under you. This activity, sometimes called “earthing”, can help you feel calm and happy. It may reduce stress and make you feel peaceful. Touching the ground might also help your body stay in balance. If you want to try it, start slowly. First, try just five minutes on dry, soft grass. You can then try a little longer each time, like ten or fifteen minutes. But don’t spend more than an hour each time. If you feel uncomfortable, you should stop or shorten the time. “Earthing” is safe for most people, but not for everyone. People who are allergic to grass or have skin problems should be careful. Also, do not lie on wet or cold ground for too long. To stay safe, remember these tips: • Choose a clean, warm place like a park. • Watch out for insects or sharp things. • Listen to your body. Stop if you feel uncomfortable. Touching the earth is a simple way to feel close to nature, but always think about your health and safety first. 1．What is one of the easiest ways to connect with nature according to the passage? A．Watching clouds.B．Growing flowers. C．Listening to birds. D．Feeling the earth. 2．What may the underlined word “allergic” in Paragraph 3 mean? A．Staying outside for a long time. B．Having the ability to grow plants well. C．Feeling good when touching the grass. D．Having an uncomfortable reaction. 3．What should you do when you try “earthing”? A．Lie on wet ground. B．Do it for one hour. C．Choose a clean place. D．Not care about your body. 4．What is the passage mainly about? A．How to grow plants. B．Tips for outdoor sports. C．A way to feel close to nature. D．How to stay healthy in winter. 【答案】1．D 2．D 3．C 4．C 【导语】本文主要介绍了一种与自然建立联系的简单方式“接地（earthing）”，包括其带来的益处、尝试方法、适用人群及安全注意事项等，强调触摸大地亲近自然时要将健康和安全放在首位。 1．根据文章第一段“But one of the easiest ways is to sit or lie on the grass and feel the earth under you.”可知，与自然建立联系最简单的方法之一是感受大地。 2．第三段提到“People who are allergic to grass or have skin problems should be careful.”，结合常识，对草过敏或者有皮肤问题的人应该小心，“allergic”意思是“过敏的”，即有不舒服的反应。 3．由“Choose a clean, warm place like a park.”可知，尝试“earthing”时应该选择一个干净的地方，C选项“选择一个干净的地方”与此句的语境符合。 4．文章主要介绍了“earthing”这种感受与自然亲近的方式，包括它的好处、注意事项等，C选项“A way to feel close to nature”（一种与自然亲近的方式）符合文章主旨， Passage 10 （2026·新疆乌鲁木齐·一模）Many people waited in line outside a new Mixue (蜜雪) store in New York. It was cold, but they still waited. This shows that Chinese tea drinks are becoming popular in the US. Mixue sells cheap drinks, like a $1.19 ice cream. This is very different from expensive local coffee. But low price is not the only reason for its success. Other Chinese tea shops like HeyTea (喜茶) also have long lines. Their drinks cost about $10. One reason is that young Americans are interested in foods from other countries. For example, HeyTea’s store in Times Square sells over 2,000 cups every day. That is much more than a usual coffee shop. These tea shops are growing fast. HeyTea had only a few stores in the US at the start of this year. Now it has over 30 shops. A worker at HeyTea said, “You might think most customers are Asians, but in fact, we have people from all over the world.” These shops want to be more international. They hire local people so that everyone can talk easily. For Chinese people living in the US, these drinks remind people of home. One customer said, “Seeing Mixue here makes me feel closer to home.” For others, it is about trying new tastes. A student said, “You can try different things like grass jelly (果冻). They are very nice.” These shops also help people from different cultures know one another. As one young customer said, “People get to see a different side of the world.” 1．How much does an ice-cream at Mixue usually cost in the US? A．$1.19. B．$10. C．$20. D．$30. 2．According to Paragraph 2, why are Chinese tea drinks becoming popular in the US? A．Because their drinks are very cheap. B．Because they have many stores in the US. C．Because young Americans like foreign foods. D．Because people can try different things. 3．What does the word “hire” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A．To talk with someone. B．To kick someone off. C．To be friends with someone. D．To give a job to someone. 4．What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A．Chinese tea drinks are only popular among Chinese people. B．These drinks remind people of home and help share cultures. C．American students do not like Chinese tea drinks. D．It is very hard to find Chinese tea shops in the US now. 【答案】1．A 2．C 3．D 4．B 【导语】本文介绍中国茶饮店在美走红，受不同人群喜爱，既慰藉华人乡愁，也促进文化交流。 1．第一段提到：“Mixue sells cheap drinks, like a $1.19 ice cream”，蜜雪冰淇淋的价格是$1.19一个。 2．第二段说明原因：“One reason is that young Americans are interested in foods from other countries”，美国年轻人对外国食物感兴趣。 3．第三段提到：“They hire local people so that everyone can talk easily”，根据“方便大家顺畅交流”可推断，店铺需要雇佣当地人来工作，hire意为“雇佣，给某人提供工作”。 4．最后一段总结：“these drinks remind people of home”和“help people from different cultures know one another”，这些饮品让人想家并促进文化交流。 Passage 11 （2026·新疆喀什·一模）Doubao is a smart AI assistant (助手) developed by ByteDance.

Let’s travel back 3,000 years and follow one simple character: 马. About 3,000 years ago, during the Shang Dynasty, people wrote characters on turtle shells and animal bones. The earliest “horse” looked like a simple drawing of a real horse—you could clearly see its head, four legs, and tail. When the Zhou Dynasty began, people started writing characters on bronze vessels (容器). This style, called “metal script”, made the “horse” character rounder and more decorative. In 221 BCE, Emperor Qin Shi Huang standardized the writing system. He called it zhuanshu, or “seal script”. The “horse” character became simpler, but still a bit like a real horse. Around 300 BC, the government created lishu, or “clerical script”. The “horse” character became flatter and wider. Its four legs turned into four short strokes (笔画). The tail became a simple line. During the Tang Dynasty, kaishu or “regular script” became the standard. The “horse” character got its modern form. Every stroke had a clear start and finish. Calligraphy (书法) masters spent years perfecting this style. In the 1950s, the government made characters simpler to help people read and write. The traditional “馬” became “马”—with only three strokes. 1．How does the writer start the passage? A．By telling a story. B．By listing numbers. C．By explaining a fact. D．By asking a question. 2．Which is the correct order of changes for the “horse” character? ① Seal Script ② Metal Script ③ Clerical Script ④ Regular Script ⑤ Simplified Script A．①→②→③→④→⑤ B．①→④→③→②→⑤ C．②→①→③→④→⑤ D．②→①→④→③→⑤ 3．Which of the following characters is written in regular script? A． B． C． D． 4．Why did the Chinese government introduce simplified characters in the 1950s? A．To help more people learn to read and write. B．To follow the international trend of writing. C．To make the characters more artistic. D．To make the writing system more difficult. 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．C 4．A 【导语】本文主要介绍了汉字“马”从商朝至今的演变过程，包括不同历史时期的书写风格变化。 1．文章开篇以问句“Have you ever wondered where Chinese characters come from?”引出话题，因此是通过提问来开篇的。 2．根据文章内容，约3000年前商朝时是“Metal Script”（金文）；公元前221年秦朝时是“Seal Script”（篆书）；约公元前300年政府创造了“Clerical Script”（隶书）；唐朝时“Regular Script”（楷书）成为标准；20世纪50年代政府推行了“Simplified Script”（简体字）。所以“马”字变化的正确顺序是②→①→③→④→⑤。 3．第六段指出楷书在唐代成为标准字体，“马”形成了规整清晰的繁体形态，笔画方正分明，对应选项C的字形；A选项字形线条偏弯曲；B选项是“隶”字，不是“马”；D是现代简化后的“马”，属于简化字，不是楷书阶段的字体。 4．最后一段明确指出：“In the 1950s, the government made characters simpler to help people read and write”，说明简化汉字是为了帮助更多人学习读写。 Passage 13 （2026·新疆·一模）Have you ever imagined robots doing Chinese Kung Fu? At the 2026 CCTV Spring Festival Gala (春晚), a program called “Wu Bot” made this dream come true. On the stage (舞台), the high-tech robots acted just like real Kung Fu masters. They showed amazing moves, such as kicking and jumping. Most importantly, they finished every action on their own. Soon, many people talked about the show online: How could these robots learn so many difficult skills? In fact, the great show depends on two new technologies. One lets the robots move fast and change positions without any mistakes. The other gives the robots a virtual (虚拟的) environment to practice thousands of times before going on stage. The success of “Wu Bot” clearly shows how fast China’s robot industry is developing. As we feel proud of our great progress, we keep wondering: In the near future, what other human skills can robots learn? Will they surprise us again at next year’s Spring Festival Gala? Only time will tell, but one thing is for sure—the time of smart robots has really come. 1．How does the writer start the passage? A．By asking a question. B．By giving an example. C．By doing a survey. D．By telling a story. 2．What could the robots do on the stage? A．They could sing songs. B．They could tell stories. C．They could kick and jump. D．They could draw pictures. 3．What can we infer from Paragraph 3? A．The show was very easy to prepare. B．The robots learned Kung Fu by themselves. C．The show only depended on one technology. D．The robots practiced many times before the show. 4．What does the writer think of robots in the future? A．They can’t learn new skills. B．They may bring more surprises. C．They won’t appear at the gala D．They can do everything for people. 【答案】1．A 2．C 3．D 4．B 【导语】本文主要讲述了在2026年央视春晚中，名为“Wu Bot”的节目展示了高科技机器人表演中国功夫的情况，进而介绍了该节目背后的两项新技术，以及通过这个节目反映出中国机器人产业的快速发展，并对未来机器人还能学习哪些人类技能进行了展望。 1．文章开篇第一句“Have you ever imagined robots doing Chinese Kung Fu?”是一个疑问句，所以作者是通过提问的方式开始这篇文章的， 2．根据文章第二段“On the stage (舞台), the high-tech robots acted just like real Kung Fu masters. They showed amazing moves, such as kicking and jumping.”可知，机器人在舞台上能够做出踢腿和跳跃等动作。 3．文章第三段提到“The other gives the robots a virtual (虚拟的) environment to practice thousands of times before going on stage.”，这表明机器人在表演之前在虚拟环境中练习了数千次。 4．根据文章最后一段“As we feel proud of our great progress, we keep wondering: In the near future, what other human skills can robots learn? Will they surprise us again at next year’s Spring Festival Gala? Only time will tell, but one thing is for sure—the time of smart robots has really come.”可知，作者认为在不久的将来，机器人可能会学习更多人类技能，可能会再次给我们带来惊喜。 Passage 14 （2026·新疆昌吉·一模）根据短文内容，从A、B、C、D四个选项中选择一个正确答案。 Have you ever seen lions dancing in the streets? The lions dance to the beat of a drum. Of course, they are not real lions. They are dancers in Lion costumes. Lion dancing first started in China centuries ago. It is meant to bring good luck in the coming year. Usually, a lion is made up of two dancers. One dancer controls the head. The other controls the tail. “I think of it as a sport,” says Anthony Huang, aged 16. He is a member of the New York Chinese Freemasons Athletic Club. Anthony performs as the lion’s head. It can weigh 20 pounds. Lion dancing is important to Anthony. “This tradition really lifts me up,” he says. In the past, lion dancing was performed mostly by men. But it is different today. Lion Dance Me is a lion dancing group in San Francisco, California. There are boys and girls on its team. They dance together. “Anyone can take up lion dancing. You have to believe that you can do it,”  says Ananda Tang-Lec, a 17-year-old girl. Lion dancing will continue to evolve. But a team’s sense of community will never change. “We call it a family,” Ananda says. “It’s really great because we always have each other’s backs.” 1．Why do people perform lion dancing? A．To wish for a lucky new year. B．To sell lion-dancing costumes. C．To protect the lions in the wild. D．To show skills of playing the drums. 2．Which role does Anthony play in lion dancing? A．The dresser. B．The drummer. C．The lion’s tail. D．The lion’s head. 3．What does the underlined word “evolve” mean? A．延期 B．模仿 C．举办 D．演变 4．What can we infer (推断) from Ananda’s words “We call it a family”? A．They live together in a big family. B．They bring happiness to the family. C．They call lion dancing a family game. D．They support each other like a family. 【答案】1．A 2．D 3．D 4．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了舞狮这一传统活动，介绍了舞狮的起源、舞狮的构成、不同人对舞狮的看法、如今舞狮人员的变化以及舞狮的未来发展和舞狮团队间的关系等。 1．第一段指出“Lion dancing first started in China centuries ago. It is meant to bring good luck in the coming year.”，这直接说明人们表演舞狮是为了祈求新的一年好运。 2．第三段提到“Anthony performs as the lion’s head.”，说明Anthony在舞狮中扮演狮子的头这一角色。 3．最后一段提到“Lion dancing will continue to evolve. But a team’s sense of community will never change.”，结合语境可知舞狮会持续发展变化，也就是会“演变”，团队间的社区意识不会改变。所以“evolve”意思是“演变”。 4．最后一段提到“We call it a family,” Ananda says. “It’s really great because we always have each other’s backs.”，从“我们总是互相支持”可以推断出他们像家人一样互相支持。 Passage 15 （2026·新疆昌吉·一模）根据短文内容，从A、B、C、D四个选项中选择一个正确答案。 Tai Chi (太极拳) is a special kind of exercise that helps people lower their blood pressure. A study found that it works better than running or riding a bike. Tai Chi is 52% better at reducing high blood pressure than regular exercises like running or swimming.

It gives people a special right: if they don’t like the film they are watching, they can get some money back. People are calling it “the right to feel sorry” about a movie choice. The service lasts for two months. Zhou Minghui works at the cinema. She said the way to get money back is very easy. If people watch a film for less than 20 minutes and don’t think it is good, they can tell the workers in the cinema. They just need to show their tickets and don’t have to give a long reason. The cinema will give back 40% of what they paid. Why only 40% and not all the money? The cinema said there is a rule in the film business. About 60% of the ticket money belongs to the film makers and other cinema groups. This money pays for making the film, sending it to cinemas, and running the cinemas. The cinema itself can only decide what to do with a small part of the money. So they can’t give back all of it. The cinema also told people they must ask for the money back before they leave. If they walk out of the cinema, this rule won’t work. This idea brings back a big discussion. In 2018, a film group made a rule about returning tickets. But that rule was mostly for before the film started. After a film begins, can people still get their money back? Some people say yes. They think a film is like other things you buy. If it is not good, you should be able to return it. But other people say it is hard to do. Everyone has different ideas about what makes a good film. So, what’s your idea? 1．How long does the new service last? A．For one month. B．For two months. C．For three months. D．For four months. 2．What is the correct order to get money back according to the passage? ①Show the ticket to workers. ②Get 40% of the money back. ③Buy a ticket. ④Watch for less than 20 minutes. A．③④①② B．①④③② C．③①④② D．④③②① 3．If you buy a ticket for 50 yuan and ask for money back, how much can you get? A．10 yuan. B．20 yuan. C．30 yuan. D．40 yuan. 4．When can’t people ask for the money back? A．Before the film starts. B．One day after watching. C．Before they leave the cinema. D．After they leave the cinema. 【答案】1．B 2．A 3．B 4．D 【导语】本文介绍了杭州一家电影院推出的“观影后悔权”新服务，说明了该服务的内容、申请流程、退款规则以及引发的社会讨论。 1．文中提到“The service lasts for two months”，说明这项新服务持续两个月。 2．根据原文流程，申请退款的正确顺序是：先买票（③Buy a ticket），观影不满20分钟（④Watch for less than 20 minutes），向工作人员出示票（①Show the ticket to workers），最后拿到40%退款（②Get 40% of the money back），即③④①②。 3．文中提到影院会退还支付金额的40%，票价为50元时，可退款金额为：50×40%=20。 4．文中提到“they must ask for the money back before they leave. If they walk out of the cinema, this rule won’t work”，说明离开电影院后就无法申请退款了。 Passage 3 （2026·新疆吐鲁番·二模）阅读下面短文，从题中所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出正确选项。 At present, AI is so popular in our daily life. It can help us a lot, but it still can’t do many things. A senior school teacher in Shenzhen gave her students an interesting Chinese class. She asked a question, “If you had to use one word to prove you are not an AI, what word would you choose?” The students gave 54 different answers. Their words were surprising and full of heart. Many students chose the word “mother”. Their reason is that a robot doesn’t have a mother. Others chose “I” or “emotion (情感)”. These words are about being a person. Other interesting words were “rush”, “slow”, and “hate”. One student said “rush” because an AI does not understand why people feel nervous waiting for a hospital report. Another said “slow” because people will stop to watch a cloud or sunlight, even if it is not the fast way. A student picked “hate” because this strong, difficult feeling is something an AI cannot have. Words like “regret”, “pity”, “pain” also appeared often. These words come from life experience, not just computer logic. People make mistakes, feel sad, stop for a beautiful sunset, or feel their heart jump when someone says “thank you for staying with me.” The teacher said maybe our most important thing is not being perfect or having all the answers, but always being “unfinished”—always learning and feeling. In a time when computer-made things are everywhere, these young people use one word to remind us: real people have weaknesses, have feelings, miss others, and have a kind of slow, deep love that no computer programs can copy. So, what word would you like to choose? 1．Why did many students choose the word “mother”? A．Because they love their mothers very much. B．Because robots don’t have mothers. C．Because mother is the first word people learn. D．Because AI cannot say the word “mother”. 2．Why did a student choose the word “slow”? A．Because AI is always slow. B．Because the student doesn’t like fast things. C．Because learning a language is slow. D．Because people sometimes stop to enjoy beautiful things. 3．The passage mentions all the following words EXCEPT ______. A．hate B．regret C．joy D．pain 4．What is the writer’s attitude (态度) towards humans compared to AI? A．Humans are perfect and have all answers. B．Humans are weak but have deep feelings. C．AI is better than humans. D．AI will soon have feelings like humans. 5．From the passage, we can infer that ______. A．AI can feel pain and regret B．AI can learn from life experience C．humans have feelings that AI cannot have D．all students chose the same word 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．C 4．B 5．C 【导语】本文讲述了深圳一位高中老师在语文课上，让学生用一个词证明自己不是AI的故事，通过学生们选择的不同词语，探讨了人类与AI的本质区别——情感、生命体验与人性的温度。 1．文中提到“Many students chose the word ‘mother’. Their reason is that a robot doesn’t have a mother.”，说明学生选择mother的原因是机器人没有母亲。 2．文中提到“Another said ‘slow’ because people will stop to watch a cloud or sunlight, even if it is not the fast way.”，说明学生选择slow是因为人会停下脚步欣赏美好事物，而AI无法理解这种行为。 3．文中提到的词语包括“hate”“regret”“pain”，但没有提到“joy”。 4．文中提到“real people have weaknesses, have feelings, miss others, and have a kind of slow, deep love that no computer programs can copy”，说明作者认为人类虽然有弱点，但拥有AI无法复制的深刻情感。 5．文中多次提到，学生选择的词语（如“mother”“hate”“slow”“regret”等）都源于人类的情感和生命体验，而这些是AI无法拥有的。 Passage 4 （2026·新疆·一模）Have you ever wondered why a rubber duck floats in the bathtub but a stone sinks to the bottom? The answer lies in a physical force called buoyancy (浮力). This force, discovered by the ancient Greek scientist Archimedes, explains why some objects stay on the water’s surface while others sink. Archimedes’ principle tells us: When an object is put into a fluid, it receives an upward buoyant force equal to the weight of the fluid it displaces. In simpler words, if an object pushes aside enough fluid to match its own weight, it will float. For example, a large ship floats (漂浮) because it displaces a huge amount of water—even though the ship is made of heavy metal, the weight of the displaced water is greater than the ship’s weight. Different objects react differently to water based on their density (密度). Density is how much mass is packed into a certain volume, calculated by the formula: Density = Mass÷ Volume. Objects with higher density than water (like stones) sink, while those with lower density (like rubber ducks) float. Some materials, such as wood, float because their density is less than water, even if they are large. Buoyancy is everywhere in our daily life. Hot air balloons rise because the hot air inside is less dense than the cool air outside, creating upward buoyant force. Swimmers wear life jackets to increase their volume, which displaces more water and makes them more buoyant. Even fish use buoyancy—they have a special organ called a swim bladder (鱼鳔) that fills with gas to help them move up and down in the water. 1．What is buoyancy according to the passage? A．A force that makes objects sink in fluids. B．A force that pushes objects upward in fluids. C．A force that changes the density of objects. D．A force that increases the weight of fluids. 2．The underlined word “displaces” in Paragraph 2 probably means “______”. A．takes the place of B．mixes with C．cleans up D．heats up 3．Why does a large metal ship float on water? A．Because metal is less dense than water. B．Because the ship’s volume is smaller than water. C．Because the weight of displaced water is greater than the ship’s weight. D．Because the ship’s mass is less than the mass of water. 4．What is the main purpose of the passage? A．To introduce Archimedes’ life story. B．To explain how buoyancy works and its applications. C．To teach students how to calculate density. D．To compare floating and sinking objects. 【答案】1．B 2．A 3．C 4．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，以“橡皮鸭漂浮、石头下沉”为切入点，介绍了浮力的概念、阿基米德原理、密度与浮沉的关系，并列举了浮力在生活中的应用。 1．第二段：“When an object is put into a fluid, it receives an upward buoyant force equal to the weight of the fluid it displaces.”，解释了浮力是在流体中向上推物体的力。 2．第二段：“In simpler words, if an object pushes aside enough fluid to match its own weight, it will float. For example, a large ship floats (漂浮) because it displaces a huge amount of water”可知，物体放入水中会占据原本水的空间，displaces在这里意为“排开，取代（水的位置）”，和takes the place of含义一致。 3．第二段指出：“a large ship floats (漂浮) because it displaces a huge amount of water—even though the ship is made of heavy metal, the weight of the displaced water is greater than the ship’s weight.”，大型金属船能漂浮，是因为排开的水的重量大于船自身的重量。 4．文章先介绍了浮力的定义和阿基米德原理，解释了物体浮沉与密度的关系，最后列举了热气球、救生衣、鱼鳔等浮力在生活中的应用，核心目的是解释浮力的原理及其应用。 Passage 5 （2026·新疆克拉玛依·一模）Nowadays, many people, especially teenagers, spend hours each day watching short videos on apps like TikTok or YouTube Shorts. These videos are fun and easy to watch. Teenagers look through funny clips (片段), dances, and games non-stop during meals, before sleep, and even in class. Studies show that many teenagers watch these videos for more than 2 hours daily. This habit causes serious problems for teenagers. First, watching too many short videos makes it hard for them to focus on schoolwork. Videos change every 15-30 seconds and this trains the brain to want more excitement, so students find it difficult to read books or pay attention in class. Second, their reading skills may get worse. Short videos always use simple language, so teenagers might forget how to understand longer passages. Third, too much screen time causes less sleep and fewer face-to-face conversations, which hurts both physical and mental health of teenagers. There are good ways to solve this problem. Parents can set “no phone” times during meals and homework. Schools should teach students about healthy screen time limits (限制). Teenagers should find offline hobbies like sports or art to cut down screen time. Short videos aren’t all bad, but using them wisely is important. With good habits, teenagers can enjoy technology without hurting their health or studies. 1．According to Paragraph 1, why do teenagers like watching short videos? A．They are fun and easy to watch. B．They are long and educational. C．They help improve study efficiency. D．They are only available on TikTok. 2．What problem will watching too many short videos bring to teenagers’ study? A．They will have better reading skills. B．They will pay more attention in class. C．They will find it hard to focus on schoolwork. D．They will get higher scores in exams. 3．What can we infer (推断) from the passage? A．Teens who watch short videos for 1 hour a day will have no problems. B．Using short videos properly won’t hurt teens’ studies or health. C．Short videos can’t influence teens’ reading skills. D．Offline hobbies are not helpful for cutting down screen time. 4．What is the main idea of the passage? A．Short videos are completely bad for teenagers.

The researchers have developed a strontium optical lattice clock (锶原子光晶格钟). It would lose or get less than one second over around 30,000,000,000 years. The clock is considered as the most precise (精确的) timekeeping tool now. It shows that China has become one of the world’s top countries in the field of time measurements (测量). The optical clock is not only used for timekeeping. It can also be used to provide precise time information for satellite navigation systems (卫星导航系统), far-away communications and precise measurements. The new tool also gives scientists a way to test important ideas in physics. The new scientific achievement offers a possible way to go on developing the optical clock. It can be easy-to-carry and used in space.

Yutian has great weather for roses. It is dry and warm. The county has long sunshine time—about 2,769.5 hours a year. Roses love sunlight, and this helps them grow well. The soil in Yutian County is perfect. The soil is mostly made up of sand. So water can go through it easily. Roses can grow well in this kind of soil. Many roses here grow deep into the ground—some go 3 meters down. There is enough clean water here. The water comes from the snow on the Kunlun Mountains. It is clean and safe for roses. The clean water also stops diseases from hurting the roses. Besides, people use drip irrigation (滴灌) to water the roses. This saves water and helps the roses grow better. The Three-North Shelterbelt Forest System Project (三北防护林体系建设工程) makes the environment safe for roses. Yutian is near the big desert. Strong winds and moving sand used to be detrimental to plants. But now, the project helps stop wind and fix the sand in place, so roses can grow without these problems.

It uses hawthorns (山楂) or other fruits covered in sugar, which tastes delicious and is very cheap. Recently, a new snack called “milk skin (奶皮子) tanghulu” has become a big hit in China. It mixes traditional tanghulu with Inner Mongolian milk skin. This creative snack has attracted lots of young people. Many even wait for three hours to try it! This new kind is made by putting some fruits like strawberries and grapes on a stick and is covered with a smooth layer of milk skin. The milk skin makes it crispy and sweeter with a creamy taste. It also looks very beautiful with bright colors. Short videos on apps like Douyin made it popular in a short time. However, some people have different opinions about the snack. One stick of milk skin tanghulu costs 15-40 yuan, even up to 98 yuan in some cities. They think it is too expensive, especially compared with the traditional one. Health experts also warn that eating too much may cause acne (痤疮) or other illness because it has too much sugar and fat.

Did you know most people check their phones over 50 times a day? Many teens feel uneasy when they don’t have their phones nearby. Here’s how to control without giving up your phone. A good way to use your phone less is to pick a special time each day. Choose 30 minutes after school just for phone use. During this time, really focus on what you’re doing, such as watching videos, messaging friends, or playing games on your phone. But when time’s up, put your phone away. Next, fight those phone notifications (通知). Turn off all notices except for important ones. This simple change reduces the brain’s ideas of “check it now”. Without these, you’ll not be pulled to check your phone every minute. Find a place where phones aren’t allowed. Keep your phone out of these three places: the dinner table, your bed and study areas. Try the “Doorway Method”: leave your phone by the front door when you get home, and only check it there when truly needed. Scientists found about 1/3 of phone time is just habit, not because it’s fun. That’s why the methods are mentioned above. By making such small changes, you can save over 2 hours daily to read, play outside, or try a new hobby. 1．What is suggested as a “special time” for phone use in Paragraph 2? A．Half an hour before going to bed. B．During the homework hours. C．Half an hour after school. D．While having dinner with family. 2．Where should you leave your phone when using the “Doorway Method”? A．On the dinner table. B．In your study area. C．By the front door. D．Under your bed. 3．Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． 4．What’s the main purpose of this passage? A．To tell people not to use their phones. B．To help people use phones less. C．To show how to buy a good phone. D．To describe how popular phones are. Passage 9 （2026·新疆·一模）We can connect with nature in many ways, like watching clouds or growing flowers. But one of the easiest ways is to sit or lie on the grass and feel the earth under you. This activity, sometimes called “earthing”, can help you feel calm and happy. It may reduce stress and make you feel peaceful. Touching the ground might also help your body stay in balance. If you want to try it, start slowly. First, try just five minutes on dry, soft grass. You can then try a little longer each time, like ten or fifteen minutes. But don’t spend more than an hour each time. If you feel uncomfortable, you should stop or shorten the time. “Earthing” is safe for most people, but not for everyone. People who are allergic to grass or have skin problems should be careful. Also, do not lie on wet or cold ground for too long. To stay safe, remember these tips: • Choose a clean, warm place like a park. • Watch out for insects or sharp things. • Listen to your body. Stop if you feel uncomfortable. Touching the earth is a simple way to feel close to nature, but always think about your health and safety first. 1．What is one of the easiest ways to connect with nature according to the passage?

D．How to stay healthy in winter. Passage 10 （2026·新疆乌鲁木齐·一模）Many people waited in line outside a new Mixue (蜜雪) store in New York. It was cold, but they still waited. This shows that Chinese tea drinks are becoming popular in the US. Mixue sells cheap drinks, like a $1.19 ice cream. This is very different from expensive local coffee. But low price is not the only reason for its success. Other Chinese tea shops like HeyTea (喜茶) also have long lines. Their drinks cost about $10. One reason is that young Americans are interested in foods from other countries. For example, HeyTea’s store in Times Square sells over 2,000 cups every day. That is much more than a usual coffee shop. These tea shops are growing fast. HeyTea had only a few stores in the US at the start of this year. Now it has over 30 shops. A worker at HeyTea said, “You might think most customers are Asians, but in fact, we have people from all over the world.” These shops want to be more international. They hire local people so that everyone can talk easily. For Chinese people living in the US, these drinks remind people of home. One customer said, “Seeing Mixue here makes me feel closer to home.” For others, it is about trying new tastes. A student said, “You can try different things like grass jelly (果冻). They are very nice.” These shops also help people from different cultures know one another. As one young customer said, “People get to see a different side of the world.” 1．How much does an ice-cream at Mixue usually cost in the US? A．$1.19. B．$10. C．$20.

C．To be friends with someone. D．To give a job to someone. 4．What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A．Chinese tea drinks are only popular among Chinese people. B．These drinks remind people of home and help share cultures. C．American students do not like Chinese tea drinks. D．It is very hard to find Chinese tea shops in the US now.

Let’s travel back 3,000 years and follow one simple character: 马. About 3,000 years ago, during the Shang Dynasty, people wrote characters on turtle shells and animal bones. The earliest “horse” looked like a simple drawing of a real horse—you could clearly see its head, four legs, and tail. When the Zhou Dynasty began, people started writing characters on bronze vessels (容器). This style, called “metal script”, made the “horse” character rounder and more decorative. In 221 BCE, Emperor Qin Shi Huang standardized the writing system. He called it zhuanshu, or “seal script”. The “horse” character became simpler, but still a bit like a real horse. Around 300 BC, the government created lishu, or “clerical script”. The “horse” character became flatter and wider. Its four legs turned into four short strokes (笔画). The tail became a simple line. During the Tang Dynasty, kaishu or “regular script” became the standard. The “horse” character got its modern form. Every stroke had a clear start and finish. Calligraphy (书法) masters spent years perfecting this style. In the 1950s, the government made characters simpler to help people read and write. The traditional “馬” became “马”—with only three strokes. 1．How does the writer start the passage? A．By telling a story. B．By listing numbers. C．By explaining a fact. D．By asking a question. 2．Which is the correct order of changes for the “horse” character? ① Seal Script ② Metal Script ③ Clerical Script ④ Regular Script ⑤ Simplified Script A．①→②→③→④→⑤ B．①→④→③→②→⑤ C．②→①→③→④→⑤ D．②→①→④→③→⑤ 3．Which of the following characters is written in regular script? A． B． C． D． 4．Why did the Chinese government introduce simplified characters in the 1950s? A．To help more people learn to read and write. B．To follow the international trend of writing. C．To make the characters more artistic. D．To make the writing system more difficult. Passage 13 （2026·新疆·一模）Have you ever imagined robots doing Chinese Kung Fu? At the 2026 CCTV Spring Festival Gala (春晚), a program called “Wu Bot” made this dream come true. On the stage (舞台), the high-tech robots acted just like real Kung Fu masters. They showed amazing moves, such as kicking and jumping. Most importantly, they finished every action on their own. Soon, many people talked about the show online: How could these robots learn so many difficult skills? In fact, the great show depends on two new technologies. One lets the robots move fast and change positions without any mistakes. The other gives the robots a virtual (虚拟的) environment to practice thousands of times before going on stage. The success of “Wu Bot” clearly shows how fast China’s robot industry is developing. As we feel proud of our great progress, we keep wondering: In the near future, what other human skills can robots learn? Will they surprise us again at next year’s Spring Festival Gala? Only time will tell, but one thing is for sure—the time of smart robots has really come. 1．How does the writer start the passage? A．By asking a question. B．By giving an example. C．By doing a survey.

C．They won’t appear at the gala D．They can do everything for people. Passage 14 （2026·新疆昌吉·一模）根据短文内容，从A、B、C、D四个选项中选择一个正确答案。 Have you ever seen lions dancing in the streets? The lions dance to the beat of a drum. Of course, they are not real lions. They are dancers in Lion costumes. Lion dancing first started in China centuries ago. It is meant to bring good luck in the coming year. Usually, a lion is made up of two dancers. One dancer controls the head. The other controls the tail. “I think of it as a sport,” says Anthony Huang, aged 16. He is a member of the New York Chinese Freemasons Athletic Club. Anthony performs as the lion’s head. It can weigh 20 pounds. Lion dancing is important to Anthony. “This tradition really lifts me up,” he says. In the past, lion dancing was performed mostly by men. But it is different today. Lion Dance Me is a lion dancing group in San Francisco, California. There are boys and girls on its team. They dance together. “Anyone can take up lion dancing. You have to believe that you can do it,”  says Ananda Tang-Lec, a 17-year-old girl. Lion dancing will continue to evolve. But a team’s sense of community will never change. “We call it a family,” Ananda says. “It’s really great because we always have each other’s backs.” 1．Why do people perform lion dancing?

Passage 15 （2026·新疆昌吉·一模）根据短文内容，从A、B、C、D四个选项中选择一个正确答案。 Tai Chi (太极拳) is a special kind of exercise that helps people lower their blood pressure. A study found that it works better than running or riding a bike. Tai Chi is 52% better at reducing high blood pressure than regular exercises like running or swimming. Scientists from the China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences looked at 324 people who had slightly (轻微的) high blood pressure. They divided them into two groups. One group did Tai Chi for one hour, four times a week. The other group ran, rode bikes, or swam for the same amount of time. After a year, the scientists saw that the people doing Tai Chi lowered their blood pressure by 10%. The people who exercised in other ways only lowered theirs by 6%. People all over the world practice Tai Chi. They do it for many reasons. It can not only keep their bodies healthy but also relax their minds.

Passage 2 （2026·新疆吐鲁番·二模）阅读下面短文，从题中所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出正确选项。 Recently, a cinema in Hangzhou started a new service. It gives people a special right: if they don’t like the film they are watching, they can get some money back. People are calling it “the right to feel sorry” about a movie choice. The service lasts for two months. Zhou Minghui works at the cinema. She said the way to get money back is very easy. If people watch a film for less than 20 minutes and don’t think it is good, they can tell the workers in the cinema. They just need to show their tickets and don’t have to give a long reason. The cinema will give back 40% of what they paid. Why only 40% and not all the money? The cinema said there is a rule in the film business. About 60% of the ticket money belongs to the film makers and other cinema groups. This money pays for making the film, sending it to cinemas, and running the cinemas. The cinema itself can only decide what to do with a small part of the money. So they can’t give back all of it. The cinema also told people they must ask for the money back before they leave. If they walk out of the cinema, this rule won’t work. This idea brings back a big discussion. In 2018, a film group made a rule about returning tickets. But that rule was mostly for before the film started. After a film begins, can people still get their money back? Some people say yes. They think a film is like other things you buy. If it is not good, you should be able to return it. But other people say it is hard to do. Everyone has different ideas about what makes a good film. So, what’s your idea? 1．How long does the new service last? A．For one month. B．For two months. C．For three months. D．For four months. 2．What is the correct order to get money back according to the passage? ①Show the ticket to workers. ②Get 40% of the money back. ③Buy a ticket. ④Watch for less than 20 minutes. A．③④①② B．①④③② C．③①④② D．④③②① 3．If you buy a ticket for 50 yuan and ask for money back, how much can you get? A．10 yuan. B．20 yuan. C．30 yuan. D．40 yuan. 4．When can’t people ask for the money back? A．Before the film starts. B．One day after watching. C．Before they leave the cinema. D．After they leave the cinema. Passage 3 （2026·新疆吐鲁番·二模）阅读下面短文，从题中所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出正确选项。 At present, AI is so popular in our daily life. It can help us a lot, but it still can’t do many things. A senior school teacher in Shenzhen gave her students an interesting Chinese class. She asked a question, “If you had to use one word to prove you are not an AI, what word would you choose?” The students gave 54 different answers. Their words were surprising and full of heart. Many students chose the word “mother”. Their reason is that a robot doesn’t have a mother. Others chose “I” or “emotion (情感)”. These words are about being a person. Other interesting words were “rush”, “slow”, and “hate”. One student said “rush” because an AI does not understand why people feel nervous waiting for a hospital report. Another said “slow” because people will stop to watch a cloud or sunlight, even if it is not the fast way. A student picked “hate” because this strong, difficult feeling is something an AI cannot have. Words like “regret”, “pity”, “pain” also appeared often. These words come from life experience, not just computer logic. People make mistakes, feel sad, stop for a beautiful sunset, or feel their heart jump when someone says “thank you for staying with me.” The teacher said maybe our most important thing is not being perfect or having all the answers, but always being “unfinished”—always learning and feeling. In a time when computer-made things are everywhere, these young people use one word to remind us: real people have weaknesses, have feelings, miss others, and have a kind of slow, deep love that no computer programs can copy. So, what word would you like to choose? 1．Why did many students choose the word “mother”? A．Because they love their mothers very much. B．Because robots don’t have mothers. C．Because mother is the first word people learn. D．Because AI cannot say the word “mother”. 2．Why did a student choose the word “slow”? A．Because AI is always slow. B．Because the student doesn’t like fast things. C．Because learning a language is slow. D．Because people sometimes stop to enjoy beautiful things. 3．The passage mentions all the following words EXCEPT ______. A．hate B．regret C．joy D．pain 4．What is the writer’s attitude (态度) towards humans compared to AI? A．Humans are perfect and have all answers. B．Humans are weak but have deep feelings. C．AI is better than humans. D．AI will soon have feelings like humans. 5．From the passage, we can infer that ______. A．AI can feel pain and regret B．AI can learn from life experience C．humans have feelings that AI cannot have D．all students chose the same word Passage 4 （2026·新疆·一模）Have you ever wondered why a rubber duck floats in the bathtub but a stone sinks to the bottom? The answer lies in a physical force called buoyancy (浮力). This force, discovered by the ancient Greek scientist Archimedes, explains why some objects stay on the water’s surface while others sink. Archimedes’ principle tells us: When an object is put into a fluid, it receives an upward buoyant force equal to the weight of the fluid it displaces. In simpler words, if an object pushes aside enough fluid to match its own weight, it will float. For example, a large ship floats (漂浮) because it displaces a huge amount of water—even though the ship is made of heavy metal, the weight of the displaced water is greater than the ship’s weight. Different objects react differently to water based on their density (密度). Density is how much mass is packed into a certain volume, calculated by the formula: Density = Mass÷ Volume. Objects with higher density than water (like stones) sink, while those with lower density (like rubber ducks) float. Some materials, such as wood, float because their density is less than water, even if they are large. Buoyancy is everywhere in our daily life. Hot air balloons rise because the hot air inside is less dense than the cool air outside, creating upward buoyant force. Swimmers wear life jackets to increase their volume, which displaces more water and makes them more buoyant. Even fish use buoyancy—they have a special organ called a swim bladder (鱼鳔) that fills with gas to help them move up and down in the water. 1．What is buoyancy according to the passage? A．A force that makes objects sink in fluids. B．A force that pushes objects upward in fluids. C．A force that changes the density of objects. D．A force that increases the weight of fluids. 2．The underlined word “displaces” in Paragraph 2 probably means “______”. A．takes the place of B．mixes with C．cleans up D．heats up 3．Why does a large metal ship float on water? A．Because metal is less dense than water. B．Because the ship’s volume is smaller than water. C．Because the weight of displaced water is greater than the ship’s weight. D．Because the ship’s mass is less than the mass of water. 4．What is the main purpose of the passage? A．To introduce Archimedes’ life story. B．To explain how buoyancy works and its applications. C．To teach students how to calculate density. D．To compare floating and sinking objects. Passage 5 （2026·新疆克拉玛依·一模）Nowadays, many people, especially teenagers, spend hours each day watching short videos on apps like TikTok or YouTube Shorts. These videos are fun and easy to watch. Teenagers look through funny clips (片段), dances, and games non-stop during meals, before sleep, and even in class. Studies show that many teenagers watch these videos for more than 2 hours daily. This habit causes serious problems for teenagers. First, watching too many short videos makes it hard for them to focus on schoolwork. Videos change every 15-30 seconds and this trains the brain to want more excitement, so students find it difficult to read books or pay attention in class. Second, their reading skills may get worse. Short videos always use simple language, so teenagers might forget how to understand longer passages. Third, too much screen time causes less sleep and fewer face-to-face conversations, which hurts both physical and mental health of teenagers. There are good ways to solve this problem. Parents can set “no phone” times during meals and homework. Schools should teach students about healthy screen time limits (限制). Teenagers should find offline hobbies like sports or art to cut down screen time. Short videos aren’t all bad, but using them wisely is important. With good habits, teenagers can enjoy technology without hurting their health or studies. 1．According to Paragraph 1, why do teenagers like watching short videos? A．They are fun and easy to watch. B．They are long and educational. C．They help improve study efficiency. D．They are only available on TikTok. 2．What problem will watching too many short videos bring to teenagers’ study? A．They will have better reading skills. B．They will pay more attention in class. C．They will find it hard to focus on schoolwork. D．They will get higher scores in exams. 3．What can we infer (推断) from the passage? A．Teens who watch short videos for 1 hour a day will have no problems. B．Using short videos properly won’t hurt teens’ studies or health. C．Short videos can’t influence teens’ reading skills. D．Offline hobbies are not helpful for cutting down screen time. 4．What is the main idea of the passage? A．Short videos are completely bad for teenagers. B．Teenagers spend too much time watching short videos. C．Only parents can help teenagers cut down screen time. D．Short videos bring problems to teenagers, but we can solve them with good habits. / 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
