AI in the Classroom: A 2026 Perspective By early 2026, the debate over AI has evolved from mere adoption to sophisticated mastery. A study 1 (conduct) recently by TIME suggests that personalized AI tutors, 2 implementation was once highly controversial, have improved literacy rates by 15% across several pilot schools. Not until these systems are fully integrated into daily routines 3 their transformative potential be realized. These tools are capable of identifying the exact moment 4 a student’s attention begins to wander, providing instant feedback that no human teacher could manage for thirty students simultaneously. However, many educators remain skeptical, fearing that 5 (allow) students to rely too heavily on algorithms to generate ideas would cause their critical thinking skills to inevitably diminish over time. “The goal of education is to have the cognitive ability 6 (exercise) regularly without digital assistance.” says Dr. Lee, whose expertise lies in cognitive psychology. 7 these persistent concerns, schools are now implementing “Hybrid Learning” rules to balance high-tech automation with human intuition. 8 (produce) original drafts, students under this framework are then allowed to engage with AI-enhanced refinement tools. The question remains 9 we can maintain the human element in an increasingly automated world. Indeed, the essence of education lies not in the mere delivery of facts, but in the spark of inspiration that occurs between a mentor and a learner. Most forward-thinking educators consider 10 essential to nurture students’ emotional intelligence alongside their digital literacy. 【答案】 1．conducted 2．whose 3．will 4．when 5．allowing 6．exercised 7．Despite 8．Having produced 9．whether 10．it 【导语】文章主要讲述了2026年AI在课堂中的应用、争议及平衡策略。 1．考查非谓语动词。句意：《时代》杂志最近进行的一项研究表明，个性化的人工智能导师——其实施曾一度极具争议——已经使几所试点学校的识字率提高了15%。本空在句中作后置定语，修饰名词study，且与study之间是被动关系，用过去分词形式conducted。 2．考查定语从句。句意同上。本空引导非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词personalized AI tutors，且在从句中作定语，修饰名词implementation，表示所属关系，所以用关系代词whose。 3．考查部分倒装。句意：只有当这些系统完全融入日常生活时，它们的变革潜力才能实现。本句为“Not until+状语从句”置于句首，主句要用部分倒装结构，即将助动词/be动词/情态动词置于主语之前，根据语境可知，句子描述的是将来的情况，应用一般将来时，所以用will。 4．考查定语从句。句意：这些工具能够识别出学生注意力开始分散的确切时刻，并提供即时反馈，这是人类教师无法同时为30名学生提供的。本空引导定语从句，修饰先行词moment，且关系词在从句中作时间状语，用关系副词when引导。 5．考查非谓语动词。句意：然而，许多教育工作者仍然持怀疑态度，他们担心允许学生过于依赖算法来产生想法，会导致他们的批判性思维能力随着时间的推移不可避免地下降。本空在句中作主语，表示一般性的动作，用allow的动名词形式allowing。 6．考查非谓语动词。句意：“教育的目标是让认知能力在没有数字辅助的情况下得到定期锻炼，”认知心理学专家李博士说。本空在句中作宾语补足语，have sth. done“让某事被做”，exercise与宾语the cognitive ability之间是被动关系，用过去分词形式exercised。 7．考查介词。句意：尽管存在这些持续的担忧，学校现在正在实施“混合学习”规则，以平衡高科技自动化和人类直觉。此处表让步，后接名词短语，用介词Despite“尽管”。 8．考查非谓语动词。句意：在这个框架下，学生需要先制作原始草稿，然后才能使用人工智能增强细化工具。学生完成原创初稿后，才可使用 AI 优化工具。students与 produce为主动，且动作先于主句动作发生，用现在分词完成式Having produced作状语。 9．考查表语从句。句意：问题仍然在于，在一个日益自动化的世界里，我们能否保持人的因素。本空引导表语从句，表示“是否”，用whether引导。 10．考查it作形式宾语。句意：大多数有远见的教育工作者认为，在培养学生的数字素养的同时，培养他们的情商是至关重要的。本空在句中作形式宾语，真正的宾语为后面的不定式短语to nurture students’ emotional intelligence alongside their digital literacy，用代词it。 Section B Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box.

For as long as historical buildings have been   11 , the Lighthouse of Alexandria is considered to have been one of the top three tallest structures in the world. It is preceded by the two pyramids identified as “Khufu” and “Khafra”. During the years of 956, 1303, and 1323, the immense structure received damage as a result of earthquakes that occurred in the area. The citizens of the time used a mixture of fire and 12 mirror like material in order to provide the lighting needed by ships to discover the port. Claims indicate that the light was so immense that ships as far out to sea as 35 miles could see the   13 light coming from the mysterious lighthouse. There are also legends that the fire emitted from the port was so protective that ships that contained enemies would be 14 at sea so that they would not reach the shores where the lighthouse stood. In the year of 1183, a traveler by the name of Ibn Jubayr observed the Lighthouse of Alexandria and made the following observation: “Description of it falls short, the eyes fail to 15 it, and words are inadequate, so vast is the spectacle...” In the year of 1994, scuba divers that specialize in archaeology searched the water near where the magnificent structure stood. They were able to 16 discover many different pieces of block and other construction materials. It is a mystery as to why the structure finally collapsed into the Mediterranean Sea. It has been 17 that the fall likely occurred in the year of 1326. There are many theories about the final collapse, but many agree that the earthquakes of the area probably resulted in the 18 . There are many other theories that indicate the structure may have been 19 destroyed due to rumors that there were great treasures buried underneath the structure. It is believed that a man identified as the “Caliph at Cairo” was told of a rumor from a neighboring port that extremely valuable treasures were under the building in order to eliminate the port as a   20 system into the area. While this is just a legend, could it have been what led to the fall of the Lighthouse of Alexandria? This remains to be one of the greatest unsolved mysteries of the world. 【答案】 11．C 12．K 13．B 14．E 15．J 16．A 17．D 18．F 19．I 20．G 【导语】本文主要介绍了世界古代七大奇迹之一的亚历山大灯塔的历史、功能、毁坏原因及相关传说。 【详解】11．考查动词。句意：自有历史建筑被建造以来，亚历山大灯塔就被认为是世界上最高的三大建筑之一。根据后文“the Lighthouse of Alexandria is considered to have been one of the top three tallest structures in the world.”可知，自有历史建筑被建造以来。空处在“have been”之后，构成现在完成时的被动语态，应用过去分词。established的过去分词为established，含义为“建立；建造”。 12．考查形容词。句意：当时的市民使用火和一种类似镜子的反光材料的混合物，以便为船只提供发现港口所需的照明。根据后文“mirror like materia”可知，利用一种类似镜子的反光材料。空处修饰名词“mirror like material”，应用形容词作定语。reflective为形容词，含义为“反光的；反射的”，与“mirror like”（像镜子一样的）语义呼应。 13．考查形容词。句意：有说法称，灯光如此强烈，以至于远至35英里外海上的船只都能看到这座神秘灯塔发出的清晰光线。根据前文“the light was so immense”可知，能看到这座神秘灯塔发出的清晰光线。空处修饰名词“light”，应用形容词作定语。distinct为形容词，含义为“清晰的；明显的”，用于描述远处可见的明亮光线。 14．考查动词。句意：还有传说称，港口发出的火如此具有保护性，以至于载有敌人的船只会在海上被烧毁，以免它们到达灯塔所在的岸边。 根据前文“the fire emitted from the port was so protective”可知，载有敌人的船只会在海上被烧毁。空处与would be构成被动语态，应用过去分词，consume的过去分词为consumed，含义为“烧毁、消耗”。 15．考查动词。句意：描述它显得苍白，眼睛无法理解它，言语亦显不足，景象如此宏伟……，根据后文“words are inadequate”可知，眼睛无法理解它。空处在不定式符号“to”之后，应用动词原形。comprehend为动词原形，含义为“理解、领会”，与”falls short”（显得不足）和“inadequate”（不充分）构成并列语义。 16．考查副词。句意：他们成功地发现了许多不同的石块和其他建筑材料。根据后文“discover many different pieces of block and other construction materials.”可知，发现了许多不同的石块和其他建筑材料。空处修饰动词“discover”，应用副词。successfully为副词，含义为“成功地”，说明考古潜水员的探索取得了成果。 17．考查动词。句意：据估计，倒塌很可能发生在1326年。根据后文“the fall likely”可知，这是在估计。空处在“has been”之后，构成现在完成时的被动语态，应用过去分词。evaluated的过去分词为evaluated，含义为“评估、估计”，常用于It has been evaluated that...（据估计……）的固定句型。 18．考查名词。句意：关于其最终的衰落有诸多说法，但许多人认为，该地区频发的地震很可能引发了一系列复杂问题。空处在定冠词“the”之后，应用名词。complications为名词复数，含义为“并发症、复杂情况、引发的问题”，此处指地震造成的复杂后果最终导致灯塔倒塌。 19．考查副词。句意：还有许多其他理论表明，该建筑可能是被故意摧毁的，因为有传言称建筑下埋藏着巨大的宝藏。 根据后文“there were great treasures buried underneath the structure.”可知，建筑可能是被故意摧毁的。空处修饰动词destroyed，应用副词，purposely为副词，含义为“故意地、蓄意地”。 20．考查名词。人们认为，一位被称作 “开罗哈里发” 的男子听闻了来自邻近港口的一则传闻：该建筑下方藏有价值连城的宝藏，而散播此传闻的目的，是为了废除该港口作为进入这一地区的导航系统。 根据全篇可知，灯塔是港口导航系统的重要组成部分。空处位于不定冠词a之后，应用名词，navigation为名词，含义为“导航、航行”。 II. Reading Comprehension (21 – 35题，每题1分；36 – 50题，每题2分；共45分) Section A Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. We sort ourselves into introverts and extroverts, but the truth is that personality is more plastic than you think, says Claudia. There is a belief in modern therapy culture saying that you shouldn’t try to change — you are perfectly imperfect, and that the right people will accommodate your every unique characteristic. Relatedly, personality has 21 been defined as a pretty stable collection of characteristics. Indeed, you might believe you are controlled by the genetic hand you were dealt at birth when it comes to things like how agreeable or conscientious you are. However, there is plenty of evidence that our personalities are more flexible than we believed, fueling fascination with the 22 of personality change to improve our lives. For example, a 2024 study found that three months of digital coaching reliably 23 personalities like emotional stability and conscientiousness. Other characteristics provide further support for the flexibility of personality. Most people will label themselves 24 as extroverts or introverts. But Carl Jung, who coined these terms, said they are a spectrum (范围) and that there is no such thing as a “ 25 ” introvert or extrovert. Some of us may be more likely to enjoy the role of chief party entertainer, while others tend to prefer 26 responding to their surroundings. However, these preferences are 27 . Who you are on a cold winter Wednesday is likely to be different to who you are on a sunny Saturday. Whatever your 28 , staying socially connected is crucial for well-being. Acting a bit extroverted helps you deal with stress’s physical effects, like higher blood pressure or heart rate. The Harvard Study of Adult Development, an 80-year project tracking the lives of about 700 men in order to understand the core 29 of a happy and healthy life, found that nothing matters more than good social relationships. Even if you regard yourself as a (n) 30 introvert, embracing a more social approach may be easier than you think. Indeed, research from 2022 shows that it is the strength of someone’s 31 as an introvert, more than how highly they score on personalities of introversion, that makes them uncomfortable when asked to act more outgoing. This indicates that a more 32 attitude towards self-image can help to drive deliberate change. Already highly extroverted? Perhaps you would benefit from working to boost your capacity for reflection, a characteristic often found in those who lean towards a quieter life. 33 , enhancing other characteristics linked with well-being-like good emotional regulation or becoming more 34 to new experiences has repeatedly been shown to be possible. Challenging the idea of 35 personality types could make us all happier. But first, you might need to accept a painful truth: maybe trying to change isn’t such a bad idea. 21．A．precisely B．conventionally C．rigidly D．formally 22．A．craft B．core C．creativity D．code 23．A．determined B．increased C．weakened D．managed 24．A．automatically B．effortlessly C．exclusively D．specifically 25．A．reliable B．quick C．pure D．common 26．A．quietly B．actively C．closely D．unnecessarily 27．A．stable B．changeable C．strong D．personal 28．A．limitations B．habits C．symptoms D．tendencies 29．A．meanings B．goals C．drawbacks D．components 30．A．transformed B．confirmed C．devoted D．reversed 31．A．emphasis B．observation C．attitude D．identity 32．A．relaxed B．formal C．positive D．reliable 33．A．Generally B．Additionally C．Consequently D．Similarly 34．A．open B．indifferent C．grateful D．subject 35．A．individual B．fascinating C．fixed D．changeable 【答案】 21．B 22．A 23．B 24．C 25．C 26．A 27．B 28．D 29．D 30．B 31．D 32．A 33．D 34．A 35．C 【导语】这是一篇议论文。论述了人格并非固定不变，而是具有可塑性，结合研究与理论说明人格的灵活性，探讨主动调整人格对生活的积极意义。 21．考查副词词义辨析。句意：与此相关的是，人格通常被定义为一组相当稳定的特质。A. precisely精确地；B. conventionally通常地；C. rigidly严格地；D. formally正式地。根据上文“personality”和下文“defined as a pretty stable collection of characteristics”可知，句中在谈论对人格的定义，这是学术届的共识，是通常的认知，conventionally符合语境。故选B。 22．考查名词词义辨析。句意：然而，有大量证据表明我们的人格比想象中更灵活，这激发了人们对塑造人格以改善生活的兴趣。A. craft技艺；B. core 核心；C. creativity创造力；D. code代码。根据上文“our personalities are more flexible than we believed”及下文“personality change to improve our lives”可知，此处指塑造人格的方式，craft符合语境。故选A。 23．考查动词词义辨析。句意：例如，2024年的一项研究发现，三个月的数字辅导可靠地提升了情绪稳定性、责任心等人格特质。A. determined决定；B. increased提升；C. weakened削弱；D. managed管理。根据上文“personality change to improve our lives”及下文“emotional stability and conscientiousness”可知，此处指提升积极人格特质，increased符合语境。故选B。 24．考查副词词义辨析。句意：大多数人会把自己完全归为外向者或内向者。A. automatically自动地；B. effortlessly轻松地；C. exclusively完全地；D. specifically具体地。根据上文“the flexibility of personality”及下文“they are a spectrum (范围)”可知，人们常完全绝对地划分自己的人格类型，exclusively符合语境。故选C。 25．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：但创造这些术语的Carl Jung说，它们是一个范围，不存在纯粹的内向者或外向者。A. reliable可靠的；B. quick快速的；C. pure纯粹的；D. common常见的。根据上文“they are a spectrum (范围)”可知，此处指不存在纯粹的单一人格类型，pure符合语境。故选C。 26．考查副词词义辨析。句意：我们中的一些人可能更喜欢扮演派对主娱乐者的角色，而另一些人倾向于安静地回应周围环境。A. quietly安静地；B. actively积极地；C. closely紧密地；D. unnecessarily不必要地。根据上文“introvert or extrovert”、“Some of us may be more likely to enjoy the role of chief party entertainer”、“while others”及下文“those who lean towards a quieter life”可知，这类人(偏内向的人)会安静地回应环境，quietly符合语境。故选A。 27．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：然而，这些偏好是会变化的。A. stable稳定的；B. changeable可变的；C. strong强烈的；D. personal个人的。根据上文“the flexibility of personality”及下文“Who you are on a cold winter Wednesday is likely to be different to who you are on a sunny Saturday”可知，偏好是会变的，changeable符合语境。故选B。 28．考查名词词义辨析。句意：无论你的倾向如何，保持社交联系对幸福感至关重要。A. limitations限制；B. habits习惯；C. symptoms症状；D. tendencies倾向。根据上文“these preferences”可知，此处指人格倾向，tendencies符合语境。故选D。 29．考查名词词义辨析。句意：哈佛成人发展研究是一个为期80年的项目，追踪约700名男性的生活，以了解幸福健康生活的核心组成部分，发现没有什么比良好的社会关系更重要。A. meanings意义；B. goals目标；C. drawbacks缺点；D. components组成部分。根据下文“nothing matters more than good social relationships”可知，此处指幸福生活的要素、组成部分，components符合语境。故选D。 30．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：即使你认为自己是坚定的内向者，采取更社交的方式可能比你想象的更容易。A. transformed转变的；B. confirmed坚定的；C. devoted忠诚的；D. reversed相反的。根据上文“Most people will label themselves __4__ as extroverts or introverts.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. A Geology, the study of the structure and formation of the Earth, is the baby of all the other sciences. Until comparatively recently, scholars paid little attention to rocks and rock formations. Indeed, the word geology only appeared in the English language in 1735 and took another seventy or so years to enter general usage. Geology made its first appearance in the Encyclopaedia Britannica (大英百科全书) in the 1810 edition. Despite this inclusion, the science of geology remained largely ignored until much later in the century. Nowadays the mystery of the Earth and its formation fascinates geologists across the world. However, few people know that the whole modern discipline of geology and the way we look at our world owes its inspiration to a single man with an extraordinary passion for landscape and rocks. That man was William Smith, who was born in 1769 in the small village of Churchill in the south of England. From an early age William showed a strong interest in the world about him and asked questions about the landscape that no one could properly answer. As a young boy William picked up strange-looking stones that lay in the fields around his home and felt that some of the most common patterns in these stones looked like animals found living in the sea. He asked the men of knowledge and science in the district how these stones came to find themselves here. No one, it seemed, had answers to his questions or even thought it remotely interesting to ask the questions in the first place. A chance meeting with a man called Edward Webb led to William being offered a position to work down the mines. He came to realise that different types of rock lay at different levels as he went deeper underground. This led William to suggest that older rocks lay deeper than newer rocks. Armed with his new found insight into the birth of rocks, William walked the length and breadth of Great Britain with the intention of surveying and categorising all the wonderfully different types of rocks that he found. It took William many years of frustration and hardship to draw a huge map of Great Britain by hand. The map, on display today at Burlington House in London, uses beautiful colours to show every layer of rock below in the most precise detail. Unique in its time, William’s map gave birth to every geological survey that we take for granted in the world today. 36．When did the word “geology” start to be commonly used in the English language? A．In 1735. B．In 1810. C．Around 1805. D．Around 1895. 37．What can be learned about the local scholars in William’s district? A．They were very knowledgeable about the landscape. B．They encouraged William to explore his curiosity. C．They were astonished by William’s findings. D．They lacked both knowledge and interest in rocks. 38．What significant discovery did William Smith make while working in the mines? A．Rocks were of the same type underground. B．Underground rocks were in distinct layers. C．Newer rocks lay deeper than older ones. D．The age of rocks had no relation to their depth. 39．What is the purpose of the passage? A．To describe the life and work of William Smith and his impact on modern geology. B．To explain the history of the word “geology” and its development in modern world. C．To discuss the importance of geological surveys in understanding the land we live on. D．To highlight the challenges faced by early geologists in mapping the Earth’s rocks. 【答案】36．C 37．D 38．B 39．A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了地质学的发展历程以及威廉・史密斯对现代地质学的贡献，包括他从小对岩石的兴趣、在矿井中的发现以及绘制地图等经历。 36．细节理解题。根据第一段 “Indeed, the word geology only appeared in the English language in 1735 and took another seventy or so years to enter general usage. (“地质学” 这个词在 1735 年出现在英语中，又过了大约 70 年才被普遍使用。)”可知，1735 年加上 70 年左右，大约是 1805 年，“地质学” 一词开始在英语中普遍使用。故选 C。 37．推理判断题。根据第三段 “He asked the men of knowledge and science in the district how these stones came to find themselves here. No one, it seemed, had answers to his questions or even thought it remotely interesting to ask the questions in the first place. (他问当地有知识和懂科学的人这些石头是怎么到这里来的。似乎没有人能回答他的问题，甚至一开始就没有人觉得这些问题有丝毫有趣之处。)”可知，当地的学者既缺乏关于岩石的知识，也对岩石不感兴趣。故选 D。 38．细节理解题。根据第四段 “He came to realise that different types of rock lay at different levels as he went deeper underground. (当他深入地下时，他意识到不同类型的岩石处于不同的层次。)”可知，威廉・史密斯在矿井工作时发现地下岩石是分层的。故选 B。 39．推理判断题。文章开篇介绍了地质学的发展历史，引出威廉・史密斯，接着讲述了他从小对石头的兴趣，在矿井工作时的发现，以及他绘制英国地图的过程和艰辛，最后提到他的地图对现代地质学的影响。所以文章的目的是描述威廉・史密斯的生活、工作以及他对现代地质学的影响。故选A。 B We are a non-profit organization registered in Shanghai.

D．It has been running in Shanghai for almost 20 years. 41．According to the article, if you want to volunteer to teach at the organization, you must be ______ A．fluent in both Chinese and English B．able to teach independently in class C．available at least four weeks during the summer D．able to teach in person at community centers or migrant schools 42．According to the article, non-teaching volunteers generally ______ than those who volunteer to teach English and digital literacy skills. A．take a more boring job B．show more creative skills C．work longer hours every week D．are able to benefit more from their work 【答案】40．B 41．C 42．C 【导语】这是一篇应用文。本文介绍上海一非营利组织，涵盖其宗旨，以及英语教学、数字技能教学和非教学三类志愿者招募要求与时间安排 。 40．细节理解题。根据第一段“We are a non-profit organization registered in Shanghai. With a mission to improve the welfare of disadvantaged children in China, we have hosted numerous programs focused on children’s education and well-being since 2006. We recruit, train and support about 1,000 volunteers per year to help children and youth discover the joy of learning a foreign language, digital literacy skills, and other subjects critical to their development.(我们是一家在上海注册的非营利组织。自 2006 年以来，我们一直致力于改善中国弱势儿童的福利，举办了许多关注儿童教育和福祉的项目。我们每年招募、培训和支持约 1000 名志愿者，帮助儿童和青少年发现学习外语、数字素养技能以及其他对他们发展至关重要的学科的乐趣。)”可知，是每年招募、培训和支持约1000名志愿者，而不是到目前为止总共培训了约1000名志愿者，所以B选项错误。故选B项。 41．细节理解题。在Teaching English部分提到“Time commitment: A minimum of one school term (3-4 months) or 4-8 weeks during the summer. Available for weekday and weekend classes. Volunteers are expected to commit to 4-5 hours per week(时间投入：至少一个学期（3-4个月）或夏季4-8周。工作日和周末课程都有。志愿者预计每周投入4-5小时)”和在Teaching digital literacy skills部分提到“Time commitment: A minimum of one school term (3-4 months) or 4-6 weeks during the summer. Available for weekday and weekend classes. Volunteers are expected to commit 2-4 hours per week.(时间投入：至少一个学期（3-4 个月）或夏季4-6周。工作日和周末课程都有。志愿者预计每周投入2-4小时。)”可知，如果想在该组织做志愿教学工作，在夏季至少要有4周的时间可用。故选C项。 42．细节理解题。通读全文可知，Teaching English中志愿者预计每周投入4-5小时，Teaching digital literacy skills中志愿者预计每周投入2-4小时，Non-teaching volunteer roles中提到“Time commitment: Depends on the specific responsibility, but generally at least one day (eight hours) per week.(时间投入：取决于具体职责，但一般每周至少一天（八小时）)”可知，非教学志愿者一般每周工作时间比教英语和数字素养技能的志愿者更长。故选C项。 C Lindsay Renwick, the mayor of Deniliquin, a country town in New South Wales, misses the constant whir (嗡嗡声) of the rice mill whose giant fans dried the rice. The Deniliquin mill, the largest rice mill in the Southern Hemisphere, once processed enough grain to meet the needs of 20 million people globally. But six years of drought have had a destructive effect, reducing Australia’s rice crop by 98 percent and leading to the mothballing of the mill last December. Drought affects every agriculture industry based in Australia, not just rice — from sheep farming, the country’s other backbone, to the cultivation of grapes for wine, the fastest-growing crop there, with that expansion often coming at the expense of rice. The drought’s effect on rice has produced the greatest impact on the rest of the world so far. It is one factor contributing to skyrocketing prices, and many scientists believe it is among the earliest signs that a warming planet is starting to affect food production. Researchers are looking for solutions to global rice shortages for example, rice that blooms earlier in the day, when it is cooler, to fight against global warming. Rice plants that happen to bloom on hot days are less likely to produce grains of rice, a difficulty that is already starting to emerge in inland areas of China and other Asian countries as temperatures begin to climb. “There will be problems very soon unless we have new varieties of rice in place,” said Reiner Wassmann, climate change director at the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI). The recent reports on climate change carried a warning that could make the news even worse: that existing models for the effects of climate change on agriculture did not yet include newer findings that global warming could reduce rainfall and make it more variable. Yet the effects of climate change are not uniformly bad for rice. Rising concentrations (浓度) of carbon dioxide, the main greenhouse gas, can actually help rice — although the effect reduces or disappears if the plants face unnecessary heat, inadequate water, severe pollution or other stresses. Still, the flexibility of farmers here has persuaded some climate experts that, particularly in developed countries, the effects of climate change may be relieved, if not completely avoided. “I’m not as negative as most people,” said Will Steffen, director of the Fenner School of Environment and Society at Australian National University. “Farmers are learning how to do things differently.” Meanwhile, changes like the use of water to grow wine grapes instead of rice carry their own costs, as the developing world is discovering. “Rice is an essential food,” said Graeme Haley, the general manager of the town of Deniliquin. “Wine is not.” 43．By “the mothballing of the mill” in Paragraph 1, the author most probably means the mill is ________. A．kept unprocessed B．being entirely restored C．left unused D．being pushed round 44．Which of the following can be learned from the passage? A．Rice plants are fond of higher temperature in the process of growing. B．Rice prices are rising steadily owing to the crop failure in Australia. C．Global warming may contribute to more complicated weather conditions. D．Global warming has shown few signs of influence on agriculture. 45．It can be inferred from the passage that ________. A．Australia is the largest rice producing country around the world B．wine grape cultivation has threatened the rice production in Australia C．climate changes have simply brought negative effects to people’s lives D．most people look on the bright side of the flexibility of farmers 46．Which of the following best serves as the title of the passage? A．Rice Shortage and Wine Boom. B．Drought, the Enemy of Rice Production. C．Rice Issue, a Focus of the Public Attention D．Rice Crisis and Its Solution. 【答案】43．C 44．C 45．B 46．D 【导语】这篇文章主要介绍了澳大利亚六年严重干旱致水稻减产 98%，南半球最大米厂闲置，推高全球粮价。科学家研发抗高温水稻，改种葡萄也存在隐忧。 43．推理判断题。根据第一段中“But six years of drought have had a destructive effect, reducing Australia’s rice crop by 98 percent and leading to the mothballing of the mill last December.( 但六年的干旱造成了毁灭性的影响，使澳大利亚的稻谷产量减少了 98%，并于去年 12 月导致该碾米厂停产。)”可推知，六年干旱导致澳大利亚水稻减产 98%，稻米加工厂失去了原料来源，由此可知，“关闭工厂”这一表述，作者很可能意在表明工厂处于闲置不用状态。 44．细节理解题。根据第三段中“The recent reports on climate change carried a warning that could make the news even worse: that existing models for the effects of climate change on agriculture did not yet include newer findings that global warming could reduce rainfall and make it more variable.( 最近有关气候变化的报告中包含了一个警告信息，可能会使这一情况变得更糟：现有的气候变化对农业的影响模型尚未纳入全球变暖会减少降雨量并使其更加多变的新发现。)”可知，全球变暖会减少降雨量并使其变得更加不稳定，这意味着天气状况会变得更加复杂多变。 45．推理判断题。根据第二段中“Drought affects every agriculture industry based in Australia, not just rice — from sheep farming, the country’s other backbone, to the cultivation of grapes for wine, the fastest-growing crop there, with that expansion often coming at the expense of rice.( 干旱影响了澳大利亚所有的农业产业，不仅仅是水稻种植业——从该国的另一支柱产业——养羊业，到用于酿酒的葡萄种植业（这是该国增长最快的作物，而这种扩张往往是以牺牲水稻种植为代价的）。)”可知，澳大利亚酿酒葡萄种植的快速扩张是以牺牲水稻种植为代价的，由此可推断葡萄种植已经威胁到了当地的水稻生产。 46．主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章前两段阐述了水稻危机：澳大利亚干旱导致水稻大幅减产，引发全球粮价上涨，且这是全球变暖影响粮食生产的早期迹象；第三、四段介绍了解决方案：研究人员培育抗高温水稻品种，农民通过调整种植方式适应气候变化；第五段补充说明了改种经济作物的代价。由此可知，D选项“稻米危机及其解决方案”全面涵盖了文章的核心内容，适合作为文章的标题。 Section C Directions: Read the following passages. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. Multivitamins (复合维生素) are the most common dietary supplement in the U.S. People take these pills for a variety of health reasons, but the science on what multivitamins may do for your health is mixed, and none of them are approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. 47 . In a randomized clinical trial involving 958 adults aged 60 or older, researchers found that taking a multivitamin-multimineral supplement for two years modestly slowed two molecular signals for aging in the body known as “epigenetic clocks.” In the people who took the supplement, the clocks’ rate of increase slowed by around 1.5 to two months per year, compared with the clocks of those who took a placebo. The findings were published on Monday in Nature Medicine. 48 . While the researchers saw an effect with two epigenetic clocks called PCPhenoAge and PCGrimAge, three other epigenetic clocks included in the study showed no statistically significant change to their speed. One of the study’s strengths is that the researchers carefully matched the characteristics of people in the vitamin group to those in the placebo group, says Zachary Clayton, an assistant professor of medicine at the University of Colorado Anschutz, who was also not involved with the research. “ 49 ,” he says. The study doesn’t take a person’s exact diet or physical activity during the two-year period into account. 50 . Still, in nutrition science, randomized clinical trials of this kind are rare. They aren’t generally required to sell supplements like multivitamins, even if the makers claim specific health benefits. A．Experts who were not involved in the new study urged caution. B．But interestingly, a new study suggests that taking a daily multivitamin could slow biological aging. C．Those factors can’t be ruled out as having an effect on biological aging, he adds. D．However, the magnitude of the observed differences was modest, and their clinical significance remains uncertain. E．In fact, recent surveys show that the popularity of multivitamins has been declining among health-conscious consumers. F．Nevertheless, the magnitude of the observed differences was negligible, and their clinical significance is completely meaningless. 【答案】47．B 48．A 49．D 50．C 【导语】文章主要介绍了美国常见的复合维生素功效尚无定论，一项新研究发现它或可延缓生物衰老，但多位专家指出研究存在局限，呼吁谨慎看待该结论。 47．上文“Multivitamins (复合维生素) are the most common dietary supplement in the U.S. People take these pills for a variety of health reasons, but the science on what multivitamins may do for your health is mixed, and none of them are approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. (复合维生素是美国最常见的膳食补充剂。人们服用这些药片是为了各种健康原因，但关于复合维生素对健康可能产生的作用的科学研究结果并不一致，而且它们均未获得美国食品药品监督管理局的批准。)”铺垫“复合维生素功效缺乏统一科学定论，也未获官方批准”的负面背景，后文“In a randomized clinical trial involving 958 adults aged 60 or older (在一项涉及 958 名 60 岁及以上成年人的随机临床试验中)”直接展开一项关于复合维生素的新临床试验。B选项“But interestingly, a new study suggests that taking a daily multivitamin could slow biological aging. (但有趣的是，一项新的研究表明，每天服用复合维生素可能会减缓生物衰老。)”以But转折，精准引出“每日服用复合维生素或可减缓生物衰老”的核心研究结论，完美衔接背景与下文实验内容。 48．下文“While the researchers saw an effect with two epigenetic clocks called PCPhenoAge and PCGrimAge, three other epigenetic clocks included in the study showed no statistically significant change to their speed. (虽然研究人员在名为 PCPhenoAge 和 PCGrimAge 的两个表观遗传时钟上看到了效果，但研究中包含的另外三个表观遗传时钟在速度上并未显示出统计学上的显著变化。)”讲的是仅两项衰老指标有改善，其余三项均无明显变化，说明研究结果存在局限。A选项“Experts who were not involved in the new study urged caution. (未参与此次新研究的专家们呼吁谨慎对待。)”作为总起观点，先宏观提示理性看待结论，再用后文具体数据佐证“效果有限”，逻辑层级合理。 49．上文“One of the study’s strengths is that the researchers carefully matched the characteristics of people in the vitamin group to those in the placebo group, says Zachary Clayton, an assistant professor of medicine at the University of Colorado Anschutz, who was also not involved with the research. (研究的一个优势在于，研究人员仔细地将服用维生素组人员的特征与服用安慰剂组人员的特征进行了匹配，科罗拉多大学安肖特分校的医学助理教授扎卡里·克莱顿如是说道，他本人并未参与此项研究。)”专家先客观肯定研究的优点（两组受试者特征匹配严谨）；空格处在专家的直接引语（引号内）中，需要用However转折，说出专家“呼吁谨慎”的具体理由：观测到的效果幅度很小，其临床意义尚不明确。D选项“However, the magnitude of the observed differences was modest, and their clinical significance remains uncertain. (然而，观察到的差异的幅度不大，其临床意义仍不确定。)”语气客观辩证，承接专家评价，先扬后抑，符合科普文严谨表达。 50．上文“The study doesn’t take a person’s exact diet or physical activity during the two-year period into account. (该研究并未考虑参与者在两年期间的具体饮食或身体活动情况。)”指出研究的缺陷“未考虑研究期间的饮食和运动情况”。C选项“Those factors can’t be ruled out as having an effect on biological aging, he adds. (他补充道，这些因素不能被排除，认为它们会对生物衰老产生影响。)”中Those factors精准指代前文的“饮食和身体活动”，he adds与前文he says形成连贯的专家发言，逻辑闭环。 III. Summary Writing (10分) 51．Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible. Light the Cities of the Future A previously unlit cycle path in the Netherlands has recently drawn our attention. It has been resurfaced with a material that consists of thousands of shining stones in order to create a well-lit route. The Van Gogh Path, so called after the artist who lived in the town of Nuenen in 1883, combines the traditional with the contemporary in a gesture that acknowledge ledges Van Gingh’ masterpiece The Starry Night, but also shows the way ahead for city lighting. The Van Gogh Path is not a single case; it is not difficult to foresee a time when natural materials could help light the cities of the future. Why should we care about city lighting? What’s wrong with current electrical city lighting anyway? Well, the problem that it causes is two-fold. First, of course, electrical lighting in most cities comes from non-renewable resources. According to the International Energy Agency, almost 20% of global electricity is consumed for lighting, which is responsible for high levels of carbon emissions. But there’s also the belief that electrical light itself is a form of pollution by destroying our view of the night sky. From the above reasons, then, it seems wise to investigate other approaches. The city of Glasgow is attempting to use intelligent street lighting to monitor how citizens interact with the urban landscape and minimize electrical consumption and thus emissions. This “Smart City approach” is seen by many as the way of the future, but some designers aren’t convinced. They are pioneering the altogether more original approach of using materials from the natural world in order to replace electrical light entirely. They believe that this new “technology” can one day completely replace microchips and digital systems as we find better ways of making use of the light-producing mechanisms (制) that already exist in the natural world. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】The passage discusses the innovation in city lighting by introducing the Van Gogh Path in the Netherlands, which uses luminous stones for illumination. It highlights the environmental and aesthetic issues with current electrical lighting and explores alternatives such as intelligent street lighting and natural materials to create a more sustainable and visually appealing urban environment. 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章首先介绍了荷兰一条新铺设的发光自行车道——梵高之路，它使用了数千颗发光石来照明，以此引出城市照明的未来趋势。接着，文章讨论了当前城市照明存在的问题，包括能源消耗和光污染，并提出了智能街道照明和利用自然材料作为替代方案。最后，文章展望了这些新技术可能完全取代现有微芯片和数字系统的未来。 【详解】1 要点摘录 ①The Van Gogh Path in the Netherlands has been resurfaced with luminous stones to create a well-lit route. ②Electrical lighting in most cities comes from non-renewable resources and contributes to high levels of carbon emissions. ③Electrical light is considered a form of pollution that destroys our view of the night sky. ④Alternatives such as intelligent street lighting and natural materials are being explored to create a more sustainable urban environment. 2. 缜密构思 将第①要点作为引入，第②和第③要点整合讨论现有城市照明的问题，第④要点作为解决方案和未来展望。 3. 遣词造句 The Van Gogh Path, a luminous cycle path in the Netherlands, represents an innovative approach to city lighting.

AI in the Classroom: A 2026 Perspective By early 2026, the debate over AI has evolved from mere adoption to sophisticated mastery. A study 1 (conduct) recently by TIME suggests that personalized AI tutors, 2 implementation was once highly controversial, have improved literacy rates by 15% across several pilot schools. Not until these systems are fully integrated into daily routines 3 their transformative potential be realized. These tools are capable of identifying the exact moment 4 a student’s attention begins to wander, providing instant feedback that no human teacher could manage for thirty students simultaneously. However, many educators remain skeptical, fearing that 5 (allow) students to rely too heavily on algorithms to generate ideas would cause their critical thinking skills to inevitably diminish over time. “The goal of education is to have the cognitive ability 6 (exercise) regularly without digital assistance.” says Dr. Lee, whose expertise lies in cognitive psychology. 7 these persistent concerns, schools are now implementing “Hybrid Learning” rules to balance high-tech automation with human intuition. 8 (produce) original drafts, students under this framework are then allowed to engage with AI-enhanced refinement tools. The question remains 9 we can maintain the human element in an increasingly automated world. Indeed, the essence of education lies not in the mere delivery of facts, but in the spark of inspiration that occurs between a mentor and a learner. Most forward-thinking educators consider 10 essential to nurture students’ emotional intelligence alongside their digital literacy.

For as long as historical buildings have been   11 , the Lighthouse of Alexandria is considered to have been one of the top three tallest structures in the world. It is preceded by the two pyramids identified as “Khufu” and “Khafra”. During the years of 956, 1303, and 1323, the immense structure received damage as a result of earthquakes that occurred in the area. The citizens of the time used a mixture of fire and 12 mirror like material in order to provide the lighting needed by ships to discover the port. Claims indicate that the light was so immense that ships as far out to sea as 35 miles could see the   13 light coming from the mysterious lighthouse. There are also legends that the fire emitted from the port was so protective that ships that contained enemies would be 14 at sea so that they would not reach the shores where the lighthouse stood. In the year of 1183, a traveler by the name of Ibn Jubayr observed the Lighthouse of Alexandria and made the following observation: “Description of it falls short, the eyes fail to 15 it, and words are inadequate, so vast is the spectacle...” In the year of 1994, scuba divers that specialize in archaeology searched the water near where the magnificent structure stood. They were able to 16 discover many different pieces of block and other construction materials. It is a mystery as to why the structure finally collapsed into the Mediterranean Sea. It has been 17 that the fall likely occurred in the year of 1326. There are many theories about the final collapse, but many agree that the earthquakes of the area probably resulted in the 18 . There are many other theories that indicate the structure may have been 19 destroyed due to rumors that there were great treasures buried underneath the structure. It is believed that a man identified as the “Caliph at Cairo” was told of a rumor from a neighboring port that extremely valuable treasures were under the building in order to eliminate the port as a   20 system into the area. While this is just a legend, could it have been what led to the fall of the Lighthouse of Alexandria? This remains to be one of the greatest unsolved mysteries of the world. II.

We sort ourselves into introverts and extroverts, but the truth is that personality is more plastic than you think, says Claudia. There is a belief in modern therapy culture saying that you shouldn’t try to change — you are perfectly imperfect, and that the right people will accommodate your every unique characteristic. Relatedly, personality has 21 been defined as a pretty stable collection of characteristics. Indeed, you might believe you are controlled by the genetic hand you were dealt at birth when it comes to things like how agreeable or conscientious you are. However, there is plenty of evidence that our personalities are more flexible than we believed, fueling fascination with the 22 of personality change to improve our lives. For example, a 2024 study found that three months of digital coaching reliably 23 personalities like emotional stability and conscientiousness. Other characteristics provide further support for the flexibility of personality. Most people will label themselves 24 as extroverts or introverts. But Carl Jung, who coined these terms, said they are a spectrum (范围) and that there is no such thing as a “ 25 ” introvert or extrovert. Some of us may be more likely to enjoy the role of chief party entertainer, while others tend to prefer 26 responding to their surroundings. However, these preferences are 27 . Who you are on a cold winter Wednesday is likely to be different to who you are on a sunny Saturday. Whatever your 28 , staying socially connected is crucial for well-being. Acting a bit extroverted helps you deal with stress’s physical effects, like higher blood pressure or heart rate. The Harvard Study of Adult Development, an 80-year project tracking the lives of about 700 men in order to understand the core 29 of a happy and healthy life, found that nothing matters more than good social relationships. Even if you regard yourself as a (n) 30 introvert, embracing a more social approach may be easier than you think. Indeed, research from 2022 shows that it is the strength of someone’s 31 as an introvert, more than how highly they score on personalities of introversion, that makes them uncomfortable when asked to act more outgoing. This indicates that a more 32 attitude towards self-image can help to drive deliberate change. Already highly extroverted? Perhaps you would benefit from working to boost your capacity for reflection, a characteristic often found in those who lean towards a quieter life. 33 , enhancing other characteristics linked with well-being-like good emotional regulation or becoming more 34 to new experiences has repeatedly been shown to be possible. Challenging the idea of 35 personality types could make us all happier. But first, you might need to accept a painful truth: maybe trying to change isn’t such a bad idea. 21．A．precisely B．conventionally C．rigidly D．formally 22．A．craft B．core C．creativity D．code 23．A．determined B．increased C．weakened D．managed 24．A．automatically B．effortlessly C．exclusively D．specifically 25．A．reliable B．quick C．pure D．common 26．A．quietly B．actively C．closely D．unnecessarily 27．A．stable B．changeable C．strong D．personal 28．A．limitations B．habits C．symptoms D．tendencies 29．A．meanings B．goals C．drawbacks D．components 30．A．transformed B．confirmed C．devoted D．reversed 31．A．emphasis B．observation C．attitude D．identity 32．A．relaxed B．formal C．positive D．reliable 33．A．Generally B．Additionally C．Consequently D．Similarly 34．A．open B．indifferent C．grateful D．subject 35．A．individual B．fascinating C．fixed D．changeable Section B Directions: Read the following three passages.

A Geology, the study of the structure and formation of the Earth, is the baby of all the other sciences. Until comparatively recently, scholars paid little attention to rocks and rock formations. Indeed, the word geology only appeared in the English language in 1735 and took another seventy or so years to enter general usage. Geology made its first appearance in the Encyclopaedia Britannica (大英百科全书) in the 1810 edition. Despite this inclusion, the science of geology remained largely ignored until much later in the century. Nowadays the mystery of the Earth and its formation fascinates geologists across the world. However, few people know that the whole modern discipline of geology and the way we look at our world owes its inspiration to a single man with an extraordinary passion for landscape and rocks. That man was William Smith, who was born in 1769 in the small village of Churchill in the south of England. From an early age William showed a strong interest in the world about him and asked questions about the landscape that no one could properly answer. As a young boy William picked up strange-looking stones that lay in the fields around his home and felt that some of the most common patterns in these stones looked like animals found living in the sea. He asked the men of knowledge and science in the district how these stones came to find themselves here. No one, it seemed, had answers to his questions or even thought it remotely interesting to ask the questions in the first place. A chance meeting with a man called Edward Webb led to William being offered a position to work down the mines. He came to realise that different types of rock lay at different levels as he went deeper underground. This led William to suggest that older rocks lay deeper than newer rocks. Armed with his new found insight into the birth of rocks, William walked the length and breadth of Great Britain with the intention of surveying and categorising all the wonderfully different types of rocks that he found. It took William many years of frustration and hardship to draw a huge map of Great Britain by hand. The map, on display today at Burlington House in London, uses beautiful colours to show every layer of rock below in the most precise detail. Unique in its time, William’s map gave birth to every geological survey that we take for granted in the world today. 36．When did the word “geology” start to be commonly used in the English language? A．In 1735. B．In 1810. C．Around 1805. D．Around 1895. 37．What can be learned about the local scholars in William’s district? A．They were very knowledgeable about the landscape. B．They encouraged William to explore his curiosity. C．They were astonished by William’s findings. D．They lacked both knowledge and interest in rocks. 38．What significant discovery did William Smith make while working in the mines? A．Rocks were of the same type underground.

A．take a more boring job B．show more creative skills C．work longer hours every week D．are able to benefit more from their work C Lindsay Renwick, the mayor of Deniliquin, a country town in New South Wales, misses the constant whir (嗡嗡声) of the rice mill whose giant fans dried the rice. The Deniliquin mill, the largest rice mill in the Southern Hemisphere, once processed enough grain to meet the needs of 20 million people globally. But six years of drought have had a destructive effect, reducing Australia’s rice crop by 98 percent and leading to the mothballing of the mill last December. Drought affects every agriculture industry based in Australia, not just rice — from sheep farming, the country’s other backbone, to the cultivation of grapes for wine, the fastest-growing crop there, with that expansion often coming at the expense of rice. The drought’s effect on rice has produced the greatest impact on the rest of the world so far. It is one factor contributing to skyrocketing prices, and many scientists believe it is among the earliest signs that a warming planet is starting to affect food production. Researchers are looking for solutions to global rice shortages for example, rice that blooms earlier in the day, when it is cooler, to fight against global warming. Rice plants that happen to bloom on hot days are less likely to produce grains of rice, a difficulty that is already starting to emerge in inland areas of China and other Asian countries as temperatures begin to climb. “There will be problems very soon unless we have new varieties of rice in place,” said Reiner Wassmann, climate change director at the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI). The recent reports on climate change carried a warning that could make the news even worse: that existing models for the effects of climate change on agriculture did not yet include newer findings that global warming could reduce rainfall and make it more variable. Yet the effects of climate change are not uniformly bad for rice. Rising concentrations (浓度) of carbon dioxide, the main greenhouse gas, can actually help rice — although the effect reduces or disappears if the plants face unnecessary heat, inadequate water, severe pollution or other stresses. Still, the flexibility of farmers here has persuaded some climate experts that, particularly in developed countries, the effects of climate change may be relieved, if not completely avoided. “I’m not as negative as most people,” said Will Steffen, director of the Fenner School of Environment and Society at Australian National University. “Farmers are learning how to do things differently.” Meanwhile, changes like the use of water to grow wine grapes instead of rice carry their own costs, as the developing world is discovering. “Rice is an essential food,” said Graeme Haley, the general manager of the town of Deniliquin. “Wine is not.” 43．By “the mothballing of the mill” in Paragraph 1, the author most probably means the mill is ________. A．kept unprocessed B．being entirely restored C．left unused D．being pushed round 44．Which of the following can be learned from the passage? A．Rice plants are fond of higher temperature in the process of growing. B．Rice prices are rising steadily owing to the crop failure in Australia. C．Global warming may contribute to more complicated weather conditions. D．Global warming has shown few signs of influence on agriculture. 45．It can be inferred from the passage that ________. A．Australia is the largest rice producing country around the world B．wine grape cultivation has threatened the rice production in Australia C．climate changes have simply brought negative effects to people’s lives D．most people look on the bright side of the flexibility of farmers 46．Which of the following best serves as the title of the passage? A．Rice Shortage and Wine Boom. B．Drought, the Enemy of Rice Production. C．Rice Issue, a Focus of the Public Attention D．Rice Crisis and Its Solution. Section C Directions: Read the following passages. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. Multivitamins (复合维生素) are the most common dietary supplement in the U.S. People take these pills for a variety of health reasons, but the science on what multivitamins may do for your health is mixed, and none of them are approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. 47 . In a randomized clinical trial involving 958 adults aged 60 or older, researchers found that taking a multivitamin-multimineral supplement for two years modestly slowed two molecular signals for aging in the body known as “epigenetic clocks.” In the people who took the supplement, the clocks’ rate of increase slowed by around 1.5 to two months per year, compared with the clocks of those who took a placebo. The findings were published on Monday in Nature Medicine. 48 . While the researchers saw an effect with two epigenetic clocks called PCPhenoAge and PCGrimAge, three other epigenetic clocks included in the study showed no statistically significant change to their speed. One of the study’s strengths is that the researchers carefully matched the characteristics of people in the vitamin group to those in the placebo group, says Zachary Clayton, an assistant professor of medicine at the University of Colorado Anschutz, who was also not involved with the research. “ 49 ,” he says. The study doesn’t take a person’s exact diet or physical activity during the two-year period into account. 50 . Still, in nutrition science, randomized clinical trials of this kind are rare. They aren’t generally required to sell supplements like multivitamins, even if the makers claim specific health benefits. A．Experts who were not involved in the new study urged caution. B．But interestingly, a new study suggests that taking a daily multivitamin could slow biological aging. C．Those factors can’t be ruled out as having an effect on biological aging, he adds. D．However, the magnitude of the observed differences was modest, and their clinical significance remains uncertain. E．In fact, recent surveys show that the popularity of multivitamins has been declining among health-conscious consumers. F．Nevertheless, the magnitude of the observed differences was negligible, and their clinical significance is completely meaningless. III.

Light the Cities of the Future A previously unlit cycle path in the Netherlands has recently drawn our attention. It has been resurfaced with a material that consists of thousands of shining stones in order to create a well-lit route. The Van Gogh Path, so called after the artist who lived in the town of Nuenen in 1883, combines the traditional with the contemporary in a gesture that acknowledge ledges Van Gingh’ masterpiece The Starry Night, but also shows the way ahead for city lighting. The Van Gogh Path is not a single case; it is not difficult to foresee a time when natural materials could help light the cities of the future. Why should we care about city lighting? What’s wrong with current electrical city lighting anyway? Well, the problem that it causes is two-fold. First, of course, electrical lighting in most cities comes from non-renewable resources. According to the International Energy Agency, almost 20% of global electricity is consumed for lighting, which is responsible for high levels of carbon emissions. But there’s also the belief that electrical light itself is a form of pollution by destroying our view of the night sky. From the above reasons, then, it seems wise to investigate other approaches. The city of Glasgow is attempting to use intelligent street lighting to monitor how citizens interact with the urban landscape and minimize electrical consumption and thus emissions. This “Smart City approach” is seen by many as the way of the future, but some designers aren’t convinced. They are pioneering the altogether more original approach of using materials from the natural world in order to replace electrical light entirely. They believe that this new “technology” can one day completely replace microchips and digital systems as we find better ways of making use of the light-producing mechanisms (制) that already exist in the natural world. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ IV.
