Ⅲ．Cloze Test（10小题，每小题1分，共10分） Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become a powerful helper for teenagers’ learning in 2026. It brings new changes to how we study and makes learning more 31 and efficient. Unlike traditional learning tools, AI can understand each student’s learning habits and 32 personalized study plans. For example, when a student has trouble with English grammar, AI can provide specific exercises and explain mistakes in simple language. It can also work as a “24-hour tutor” — whenever you feel puzzled, you can ask AI for help 33 waiting for teachers or parents. This helps students build confidence and learn at their own 34 . However, AI is not a “magic tool” that can replace hard work. Some students may 35 too much on AI and stop thinking independently. To use AI well, we need to remember that it is just a helper, not a 36 . We should use it to solve difficult problems and improve our skills, not to finish homework 37 . Schools and teachers are also working to help students use AI properly. They organize activities to teach students how to 38 useful information from AI and how to avoid its shortcomings. With the right use of AI, teenagers can learn smarter, not just 39 . In the future, AI will continue to develop and bring more surprises to our learning. It is important for us to keep an open mind and 40 this new technology wisely. ( ) 31. A. boring B. interesting C. difficult D. tiring ( ) 32. A. create B. change C. check D. copy ( ) 33.

A. carefully B. slowly C. carelessly D. happily ( ) 38. A. hide B. collect C. waste D. forget ( ) 39. A. harder B. quieter C. clearer D. earlier ( ) 40. A. refuse B. avoid C. use D. sell Ⅳ．Reading Comprehension（A-D每小题1分，共20分） A Do you know potatoes can be turned into rice? In Yunnan, China, a factory makes special rice from potatoes. The factory uses new technology to change potatoes into small rice-like pieces. China is one of the largest potato producers in the world. Potatoes, as well as wheat, rice and corn, are among the most important crops in China. However, potatoes have much water inside. If the correct ways can’t be found to keep them, they will go bad easily. It leads to tons of waste. Potato rice technology can help keep potatoes longer and reduce waste. There are many advantages of potato rice. First, it keeps 90% of potato nutrition (营养) and has 27% more protein (蛋白质) than normal rice. Second, it hardly raises blood sugar. Speaking of buying rice, it is usually the first choice for people who want to control their blood sugar. What’s more, it’s easy to cook because there is no need to wash it. When people cook it, they can use less water. Potato rice cooks faster than normal rice. However, every coin has two sides. Although potato rice has entered the market, it still has a long way to go. Potato rice is much more expensive than normal rice because the factory needs 2.5 tons of potatoes to produce 1 ton of potato rice. It costs 33 yuan every kilo, but normal rice costs only 4-6 yuan every kilo. Experts say that future research will pay more attention to reducing the costs and improving the taste. ( ) 41. What is the special rice made from? A. Wheat. B. Potatoes. C. Tomatoes. D. Corn. ( ) 42. Who will most probably buy potato rice according to the passage? A. People who are losing weight. B. People with high blood sugar. C. People who like eating potatoes. D. People with good cooking skills. ( ) 43. How is potato rice different from normal rice? A. It is cheaper. B. It needn’t be washed. C. It has 90% more protein. D. It needs more water when cooking. ( ) 44. What will future research pay attention to? A. The sugar. B. The protein. C. The cooking time. D. The costs and taste. ( ) 45. What is the main purpose of this passage? A. To learn about a factory in Yunnan. B. To talk about the price of potato rice. C. To introduce a new kind of healthy food. D. To teach people how to cook potato rice. B Zhang Xue: The Speed King In Portugal, at the Algarve International Circuit on March 28-29, 2026, a big thing happened. A Chinese motorcycle brand ZXMOTO won two races at the World Superbike Championship (WSBK). Its rider beat big brands like Ducati and Yamaha by nearly 4 seconds because ZXMOTO’s excellent engines and the team’s hard work made the bike fast and stable (稳定的). This success belongs to Zhang Xue, the 38-year-old founder of ZXMOTO. Zhang was born in a poor village in Hunan. His parents separated when he was young. At the age of 14, he left school and became a motorcycle repair learner. He was so crazy about engines that he could fix them even with his eyes closed. At 19, he rode 100 kilometers in heavy rain just to show his riding skills. In 2024, he started ZXMOTO in Chongqing. He invested (投资) all his money to build a powerful engine. People laughed at him, saying a small mechanic could never defeat big companies. But Zhang worked day and night. In less than two years, ZXMOTO shocked the whole world.

There are many reasons why people like them, such as being relaxing and easy to make. But this activity also has negative sides. The most common and unpleasant mistake is knocking over the bead board. Besides knocking them over, burning the beads is also common. If the temperature is not right, the beads will melt (熔化)too much and stick together. If you don’t iron them long enough, they will fall apart easily when you touch them. People will feel angry and disappointed with themselves. So how to deal with this situation? There are some tips for you. Stop and take a deep breath When you feel angry or frustrated (受挫的), stop at once. Take three slow, deep breaths. Breathing calmly can help you calm down quickly and stop your feelings from getting out of control. ▲ Tell yourself: “Mistakes happen to everyone.” Even the best craftsman mess up. It’s not the end of the world. A failed perler bead project is just a small problem, not a big matter. Talk kindly to yourself Don’t say bad things to yourself like “I’m so stupid.” Instead, encourage yourself: “It’s OK. I can try again. I’ll do better next time.” Kind words make you feel stronger. Take a short break If you feel too bad, step away for 5-10 minutes. Drink some water, listen to a song, or look out the window. When you come back, you’ll feel much clearer and not so upset. Clean up and start over slowly Once you calm down, clean the mess gently. Don’t rush. Starting over is not a shame — it shows you are patient and brave. You will make a better work this time. Remember: The goal is to enjoy the fun, not to be perfect. When you can control your feelings, you will feel proud of yourself. ( ) 51.Which sentence can put in ▲ ? A.

D ①It’s impossible to list all Chinese customs in one article, but we bring you three Chinese customs that you may not know. Here we go! ②Asians usually do not show their feelings openly, also avoid any unnecessary physical contact. The Chinese consider it bad that people kiss each other on the cheeks even if they are women. In fact, shaking hands was also frowned upon in the past. For them it was enough to make a small nod when greeting. With Western influences, handshakes are now widely accepted. ③There are many Chinese customs at lunchtime. Washing hands before eating is a must, and food manners are also very important. You should never serve yourself a drink. It should be served by someone else. At table, you should use chopsticks and a short-handled spoon. Never stick chopsticks into food, and eat with your mouth closed to the plate. ④You may know the Chinese custom of not opening gifts in public, but that’s not the only important thing to know when giving something to a Chinese person. For example, the Chinese will always refuse your gift up to three times. But in the end, they’re willing to accept it. And remember to receive the gift with both hands. ( ) 56.

However, if people on your team are not good at 81 (communicate), you may often feel terrible. To create a great team, good expression is 82 most necessary part for both the leader and the team members. The following are some helpful suggestions. Listen to other people actively. When someone is speaking to you, you should listen to him actively. 83 you’re not certain about something, you should ask him about it. In this way, you can get your answers to some 84 (question) before moving on. Think about other 85 (people) ideas carefully. When someone tells you about his ideas, you should think about them carefully, no matter how silly they may seem. This shows you 86 (attract) by his ideas and makes him feel good. Share your ideas with other people. When you have a new idea, talk about it with your team members. This helps to get better ideas. Besides this, it also helps to improve your relationships 87 you and your team members. Don’t criticise (批评) other people. When someone on your team does 88 (anything) wrong, don’t be too hard on him. You can help him to find out reasons and then help him to deal with the problem 89 (effect).

Tickets for popular singers or bands often sell out in a few minutes. But why is there such a concert boom (热潮)? Is it only about the music, or does it show something more about today’s young people? There are several reasons why young people take an interest in live concerts so much. First, many young people can truly be themselves at concerts. In daily life, they are workers, sons or daughters and always play certain roles. But at the concert hall, when they stay with thousands of strangers who enjoy the same music, they can get a strong sense of belonging. As a 25-year-old fan said, “For two hours, I’m not anyone’s child or teammate. I’m just myself.” Second, live concerts offer young people a way to relax from stress. Today’s young people face much pressure from work, high requirements and the fast-developing digital world. At a concert, loud music and bright lights help them let out their worries. Many people think this experience is like emotional medicine. Third, young people can do many great things at concerts. They dress up carefully, make new friends, sing with their idols and take videos. These things bring them happiness and sweet memories. However, not everyone agrees with concert culture. It has become more commercial (商业的) than before. Some young people spend too much money they can’t afford. To meet their favorite stars face to face, some even stop working, travel across cities and wait for a long time. In my opinion, live concerts are just a kind of relaxation. The real value of music is to bring warmth and energy. Young people should be wise and keep a balance between their hobbies and work. They shouldn’t lose themselves in blind chasing (追逐). Only in this way can they really enjoy the beauty of music. 91. Nowadays, going to live concerts ______ ______with Chinese young people. 92. There are several reasons why young people ______ ______in live concerts. 93. Second, live concerts ______ young people ______ a way to deal with stress. 94. Young people aren’t ______ ______ lose themselves in blind chasing. 95. What is the true value of music? __________________________________________________________________ Ⅸ．Writing（共10分） 成长中总会遇到压力，学会调节很重要。请你结合表格中的信息，以“Dealing with Pressure”为题，写一篇短文，谈谈你遇到的压力，并分享调节的方法。 注意：1．短文须包含表格中所有信息，可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯； 2．词数：90词左右，开头已给出，不计入总词数。 Growing Up Problems: too much homework; peer pressure … Experiences: staying up late; feeling nervous before exams … Suggestions: making a study plan; doing sports to relax … Dealing with Pressure As a student, I often feel stressed in my daily life.________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
