A. how B. what C. which D. that
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:如今,什么控制着大气中二氧化碳的进出,这是已经得到充分了解的事。本句中it是形式主语,空格处引导的是真正的主语从句,从句中缺少主语且表示“什么”,应用连接代词what引导从句。
3. Many graduates choose to hold on to their dreams ________ all kinds of difficulties and uncertainties.
A. beyond B. despite C. between D. among
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:许多毕业生选择坚持他们的梦想,尽管有各种各样的困难和不确定性。A. beyond超出;B. despite尽管;C. between在……之间;D. among在……之中。句中“choose to hold on to their dreams”与“all kinds of difficulties and uncertainties”之间存在逻辑上的让步转折关系,空格处需要使用表示“尽管”的介词。
4. Once the traditional local culture _________ effectively in public communities, more young people will develop a strong sense of cultural identity.
A. promotes B. is promoted C. will promote D. will be promoted
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考句意:一旦传统的地方文化在公共社区得到有效推广,更多的年轻人将会培养出强烈的文化认同感。Once引导的条件状语从句遵循“主将从现”原则,主句使用了一般将来时(will develop),从句应使用一般现在时表将来。同时,从句主语the traditional local culture与动词promote(推广)之间是被动关系,需使用一般现在时的被动语态。
5. To keep a good learning ________, senior high students should arrange their time reasonably and avoid unnecessary distractions.
A. routine B. principle C. custom D. tradition
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:为了保持良好的学习常规,高中生应该合理安排时间并避免不必要的分心。A. routine常规;B. principle原则;C. custom风俗;D. tradition传统。根据句中“arrange their time reasonably and avoid unnecessary distractions”可知,合理安排时间是为了保持良好的日常学习安排或常规。

A. Integrating B. Integrated
C. To integrate D. Having been integrated
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:通过将实时交通数据与人工智能预测模型相整合,这座城市显著减少了高峰时段的交通拥堵。句中已有谓语动词has reduced,且没有连词,故空格处应填入非谓语动词作状语。主句主语the city与动词integrate之间构成主动关系,因此应用现在分词形式作状语。
7. This new review textbook, ________ contents are closely combined with Tianjin exam outlines, is popular among teachers.
A. whose B. which C. that D. what
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:这本新的复习教材在老师中很受欢迎,它的内容与天津考试大纲紧密结合。分析句子结构可知,空处引导非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词“This new review textbook”。从句中名词“contents”前缺少定语,表示“这本教材的内容”,存在所属关系,因此应用关系代词whose引导该定语从句。
8. Deeply ________ by the touching stories of ordinary people, many teenagers resolved to do what they could to help those in need.
A. moving B. moved C. to move D. being moved
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:被普通人的感人故事深深打动,许多青少年决定尽他们所能去帮助那些需要帮助的人。分析句子结构可知,逗号前为非谓语动词作状语,其逻辑主语是句子的主语many teenagers,teenagers与动词move“感动”之间是被动关系,即“被感动”,且该动作已经发生,故应用过去分词形式moved作原因状语。
9. You will never make steady progress in English ________ you form a good habit of daily accumulation.
A. once B. unless C. if D. though
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:如果你不养成日常积累的好习惯,你就永远无法在英语上取得稳定的进步。A. once一旦;B. unless除非;C. if如果;D. though虽然。 分析句子逻辑可知,主句与从句之间为否定条件关系,即“如果不养成好习惯,就无法取得进步”,unless相当于if...not,符合语境。
10. Over the past few months, a series of online lectures on career planning ________ to help Senior Three students make better future choices.
A. are offered B. were offered C. have been offered D. had been offered
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:过去数月,一系列职业规划线上讲座陆续开展,助力高三学生更好地规划未来方向。句中带有时间状语Over the past few months,该时间状语通常与现在完成时连用。同时,主语a series of online lectures与动词offer之间是被动关系,因此需要使用现在完成时的被动语态have been offered。
11. Facing unexpected challenges, constant reflection helps students adjust their approaches and become more ________ in problem-solving.
A. permanent B. critical C. flexible D. artificial
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:面对意想不到的挑战,不断的反思有助于学生调整他们的方法,并在解决问题时变得更加灵活。A.permanent永久的;B. critical批判的;C. flexible灵活的;D. artificial人造的。根据“adjust their approaches”可知,说明在解决问题时能够变通,变得更加灵活。

13. Some students tend to ________ temporary pleasure rather than long-term learning goals, which holds back their progress.
A. subscribe to B. adapt to C. contribute to D. stick to

B
I have always felt most comfortable in the classroom, and I enjoy the recognition from family and teachers for accomplishing a job well. Although I was a high achiever, I was not a student who joined every club. Throughout my life, I wanted to learn more than I wanted to be in a bunch of extracurricular activities.
My academic journey continued at a community college, where I joined the student newspaper. In the newsroom, I discovered an engaging, fast-paced world that allowed me to never stop learning. It was just what I had expected. Now my transfer to Drake University for a journalism degree was a no-brainer. It was exciting to see my future become clear, but I never pictured the shock waves headed my way.
The campus phenomenon known as “Drake Busy” was completely unexpected. The term describes the idea that constant busyness is the main indicator of college success. Within the first week, I felt heavy pressure to be active in all the ways my peers were. I saw students trying to balance multiple jobs and organizations alongside schoolwork. As a student used to having confidence in the classroom, I felt this new standard threatened my identity and worsened my anxiety. I spent my first term struggling with doubts about my worthiness. My anxious thoughts tricked my mind into believing lies like “You’re not good enough.” A part of my mind realized those thoughts were not true, but that sensible voice was a whisper compared to the shouts of doubt. As a witness to this battle every day, I have learned that sometimes it just takes time to chip away at my mind’s inventions.
In time, I recognized that my experience as a transfer student was different but valuable. The outsider perspective helped me tackle “Drake Busy”. I watched people trying to do too much at the expense of their well-being. I wanted to shake them and say, “Why do this to yourself?”
Instead of fighting the current, I eventually learned to swim in my own lane. The pressure didn’t disappear, but my need to give in to it did. I realized that my worth wasn’t calculated by the number of meetings on my calendar, but by the real satisfaction I felt in my work. On the days I managed to balance my ambition with my peace of mind, I felt most motivated. I discovered that: true success is defined internally, not by the noise around you.
41. Before entering Drake University, the author _________.
A. adopted a relaxing lifestyle B. longed to become a teacher
C. struggled to choose a major D. performed well academically
42. What is the main function of Paragraph 2?
A. To describe the author’s smooth academic path and satisfying future prospect
B. To offer related background and pave the way for the coming challenge
C. To prove student newspaper is the best choice for journalism lovers
D. To explain why the author gave up further study in a community college
43. How did the author feel within the first week at Drake University?
A. Unaccustomed. B. Relieved. C. Regretful. D. Expectant.
44. Which of the following is true about “Drake Busy”?
A. It advocates students prioritize campus activities over schoolwork.
B. It values academic achievement above everything else.
C. It guides students to live a balanced and healthy life.
D. It regards being constantly busy as a sign of college success
45. What message does the passage deliver?
A. Outsiders rarely win. B. Your own pace matters.
C. Busyness equals worthiness. D. Your anxiety drives you forward.
【答案】41. D 42. B 43. A 44. D 45. B
【解析】
【导语】本文讲述了作者从社区大学转入Drake University后经历心理转变、最终找到自我节奏的成长故事。
【41题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段中的句子“Although I was a high achiever, I was not a student who joined every club. (虽然我成绩优异,但我不是那种参加所有俱乐部的学生。)”以及第二段中的句子“Now my transfer to Drake University for a journalism degree was a no-brainer. (现在,我转学到德雷克大学攻读新闻学学位是理所当然的事。)”可知,在进入Drake University之前,作者学业表现出色。
【42题详解】
推理判断题。第二段叙述了作者在社区大学加入校报、发现新闻世界的魅力,以及转学到Drake University攻读新闻学学位的顺理成章,并提到“It was exciting to see my future become clear, but I never pictured the shock waves headed my way. (看到未来变得清晰令人兴奋,但我从未预料到冲击波正朝我袭来。)”可见该段主要为后文她在Drake遭遇的“Drake Busy”文化冲击做铺垫。
【43题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段中的句子“The campus phenomenon known as “Drake Busy” was completely unexpected. Within the first week, I felt heavy pressure to be active in all the ways my peers were. (被称为“德雷克忙碌”的校园现象完全出乎意料。在第一周内,我感受到了巨大的压力,要像我的同龄人一样积极参与各种活动。)”可推断出,作者在德雷克大学的第一周感到不习惯。
【44题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的句子“The campus phenomenon known as ‘Drake Busy’ was completely unexpected. The term describes the idea that constant busyness is the main indicator of college success. (被称为‘Drake Busy’的校园现象完全出乎意料。这个词描述的是持续忙碌是大学成功主要标志的观念。)”可知,“Drake Busy”将不断忙碌视为大学成功的标志。
【45题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段中的句子“Instead of fighting the current, I eventually learned to swim in my own lane. The pressure didn’t disappear, but my need to give in to it did. I realized that my worth wasn’t calculated by the number of meetings on my calendar, but by the real satisfaction I felt in my work. (我最终学会了不再与潮流对抗,而是按自己的节奏行事。压力并没有消失,但我屈服于压力的需求消失了。我意识到我的价值不是由日历上的会议数量决定的,而是由我在工作中感受到的真正满足感决定的。)”可知,这篇文章传递的信息是:你自己的节奏很重要。

Secret codes once thought impossible to crack now face a challenge from quantum (量子) computers. Luckily, to protect information, physicist s have developed a theoretically reliable system called device-independent quantum key distribution (DI-QKD), which uses entangled (纠缠的) quantum particles (粒子) to fix weak points in existing methods. Now, a team in China has demonstrated the technique in real city conditions, an advance that could clear the way for a secure quantum internet in which trust is taken for granted.
Most traditional cryptography (密码学) works by encrypting (加密) messages with a secret code that requires a special key to decode. The challenge lies in making sure the key can’t be decoded when sent. For instance, the keys in one popular encryption scheme are based on the main factors of large numbers, which take enormous effort to crack. But such calculations could be quick work for the large quantum computers. QKD offers a solution, but it has a weakness: hardware must be perfect.
DI-QKD removes the need for trust in the hardware by employing another feature of quantum mechanics — entanglement — which closely links properties of widely separated quantum particles. If the sender and receiver entangle (纠缠) a pair of particles across the network, they can each perform tests that confirm the particles’ properties are strongly linked, well beyond chance. After this “handshake”, they can be sure they’re the only ones on the channel. Then, other measurements on the entangled particles can establish a key, which can be shared with confidence that nobody can decode it.
In 2022, a UK-based team managed to create and share a DI-QKD key for only about 2 meters. Now, the Chinese team led by Jianwei Pan have extended this to practically useful distances. After collecting data for 26 days, they showed they had the statistics to establish and share a key across 11 kilometers. The researchers also showed that in theory — and given about 23 years for data collection — they could have sent a key across 100 kilometers. Pan’s group now plans to explore ways to perform DI-QKD using satellites in space.
46. What is the function of DI-QKD?
A. To invent new quantum computers. B. To make traditional codes easier to crack.
C. To solve the safety flaws of present encryption. D. To replace the internet with quantum network.
47. How does the author explain the weakness of traditional cryptography?
A. By making a comparison. B. By giving an example.
C. By listing data. D. By analyzing causes.
48. The underlined word “handshake” in Paragraph 3 refers to ________.
A. physical greeting between researchers B. basic test and identity confirmation
C. formal delivery of secret information D. agreement on future research plans
49. What progress has the Chinese team made in DI-QKD?
A. They realized long distance link in real city environment.
B. They invented the theory of quantum entanglement.
C. They built a complete secure quantum internet.
D. They succeeded in sending keys over 100 kilometers.
50. What is the best title for the text?

Artificial intelligence threatens education’s foundations: cheating is easier, focus is declining, and future careers are unpredictable. While some applaud AI-driven education, many tech leaders advise otherwise.
Investor Chamath Palihapitiya states that coding is no longer necessary, predicting the engineer’s role will be managerial, at best, within 18 months. Honeywell’s CIO Roman Vorel argues that the future belongs to leaders with high EQ — those possessing empathy, self-awareness, and connection skills — as AI will make IQ widely available. Daniel Kokotajlo, co-author of “AI 2027”, says, “economic productivity is no longer the primary goal. What still matters is that my kids are good people — and that they have wisdom and virtue.”
It might seem like a demanding task to cultivate attention, empathy, judgment and character: hard to measure and even harder to mass-produce. Surprisingly, liberal education offers an ancient answer. Despite the fact that small liberal arts colleges may admit only a modest 4% of our undergraduates, they are, historically and today, the seed bank for deep humanistic education.
Liberal education engages seriously with foundational texts and discoveries that have shaped our understanding of truth, justice and the nature of the world. Students don’t just absorb information — they dialogue, asking “what is the good life?”, which may sound modest but powerful to develop the skills students most need. Wrestling with challenging texts builds attention. Conversation sharpens careful speaking and listening, and the ability to weigh opposing views. This education cultivates wisdom resistant to AI’s shortcuts. At St. John’s College, for example, you will be lost in class, trying to fake a two-hour conversation about “Don Quixote” (堂吉诃德) after reading an AI summary.
Interestingly, four years largely removed from the influence of technology is one the best ways of preparing for life and work in an increasingly technologized world. Carla Echevarria, a 1996 graduate of St. John’s college and now a senior manager of user experience at Google DeepMind, admits that she would “struggle with complex scientific theories in senior lab and then bang my head against classic philosophical texts for a couple of hours while listening to a powerful piece of classic music. That brings an intellectual fearlessness, which is the greatest gift of the education.”
As we head into a future shaped by powerful and unpredictable machines, the best preparation may not be a new invention, but an old discipline. We don’t need new colleges, but we need existing colleges and universities to embrace a revival of these deeply humanizing educational practices.
51. The author cites statements from technology leaders to _________.
A. stress the falling need for coding skills B. blame the fast growth of AI technologies
C. show the urge to reshape present education D. call for technical skills to be included in education
52. What can be inferred about humanistic qualities in Paragraph 3?
A. They are more valued in modern education than academic performance.
B. They are not easily measurable through conventional methods.
C. They can only be developed through liberal arts education.
D. They have become less important in the AI-dominated era.
53. What is the main idea of Paragraph 4?
A. Classic works like Don Quixote are key to liberal education.
B. Liberal education builds human qualities through deep reading.
C. AI summaries cannot replace real text engagement.
D. Liberal education focuses on exploring life questions.
54. What does the author intend to show through the example of Carla Echevarria?
A. Classic texts offer information beyond AI’s reach.
B. Traditional learning is becoming outdated due to AI.
C. Small colleges should expand to spread liberal education.
D. Liberal education fosters intellectual courage and adaptability.
55. What would be the best title for the passage?

C. Liberal Education: A Battlefield for Colleges D. Future Education: Overcoming AI with EQ
【答案】51. C 52. B 53. B 54. D 55. A
【解析】
【导语】文章主要讨论了人工智能(AI)对教育基础构成的威胁(如作弊更容易、专注力下降、未来职业不可预测),并引用多位科技领袖的观点,指出在AI时代,以培养情商、智慧、美德和人文素养为核心的文科教育(liberal education)反而可能是应对挑战、为未来做准备的最佳方式。
【51题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Investor Chamath Palihapitiya states that coding is no longer necessary, predicting the engineer’s role will be managerial, at best, within 18 months. Honeywell’s CIO Roman Vorel argues that the future belongs to leaders with high EQ — those possessing empathy, self-awareness, and connection skills — as AI will make IQ widely available. Daniel Kokotajlo, co-author of “AI 2027”, says, “economic productivity is no longer the primary goal. What still matters is that my kids are good people — and that they have wisdom and virtue.”(投资者查马斯·帕里哈皮蒂亚指出,编程不再必要,并预测工程师的角色在18个月内最多将转变为管理性质。霍尼韦尔的首席信息官罗曼·沃雷尔认为,未来属于高情商的领导者——那些具备同理心、自我意识和连接技能的人——因为AI将使高智商变得普遍可得。《AI2027》的合著者丹尼尔·科科塔伊洛说:“经济生产力不再是首要目标。重要的是我的孩子们是好人——并且拥有智慧和美德。”)”可推知,作者引用这些陈述是为了具体阐明在AI背景下,教育的目标和内容需要根本性转变,以应对新的社会需求。
【52题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“It might seem like a demanding task to cultivate attention, empathy, judgment and character: hard to measure and even harder to mass-produce. Surprisingly, liberal education offers an ancient answer. Despite the fact that small liberal arts colleges may admit only a modest 4% of our undergraduates, they are, historically and today, the seed bank for deep humanistic education.(培养专注力、同理心、判断力和品格似乎是一项艰巨的任务:难以衡量,更难以大规模推广。令人惊讶的是,文科教育提供了一个古老的解决方案。尽管规模较小的文科学院每年仅招收我们学生总数的4%左右,但从历史到当下,它们都是深度人文教育的种子库)”可知,人文素养无法通过常规方法轻易衡量出来。
【53题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“Liberal education engages seriously with foundational texts and discoveries that have shaped our understanding of truth, justice and the nature of the world. Students don’t just absorb information — they dialogue, asking “what is the good life?”, which may sound modest but powerful to develop the skills students most need. Wrestling with challenging texts builds attention. Conversation sharpens careful speaking and listening, and the ability to weigh opposing views. This education cultivates wisdom resistant to AI’s shortcuts. At St. John’s College, for example, you will be lost in class, trying to fake a two-hour conversation about “Don Quixote” (堂吉诃德) after reading an AI summary.(文科教育会认真研读那些对人类对真理、正义以及世界本质的理解产生深远影响的基础性著作和发现。学生们并非只是单纯地吸收信息——他们会进行交流,思考“什么是美好的生活?”这种想法看似朴实却极具力量,能够培养学生们最需要的技能。与具有挑战性的文本进行探讨能够培养专注力。对话能提高清晰的表达和倾听能力,以及权衡不同观点的能力。这种教育培养出不受人工智能捷径影响的智慧。例如,在圣约翰学院,你在课堂上可能会感到束手无策,只能硬着头皮假装自己能参加一场两个小时的《堂吉诃德》讨论)”可知,第四段的主要观点是现代教育通过深度阅读来培养人的品质。
【54题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Carla Echevarria, a 1996 graduate of St. John’s college and now a senior manager of user experience at Google DeepMind, admits that she would “struggle with complex scientific theories in senior lab and then bang my head against classic philosophical texts for a couple of hours while listening to a powerful piece of classic music. That brings an intellectual fearlessness, which is the greatest gift of the education.”(卡拉·埃切瓦里亚于1996年毕业于圣约翰学院,如今她是谷歌深思公司用户体验部门的高级经理。她坦言,在大学实验室中面对复杂的科学理论时,自己会感到“束手无策”,而之后在聆听一段极具感染力的经典音乐的同时,还会花上几个小时钻研经典的哲学著作。这种经历带来了思维上的无畏精神,这是教育给予我们的最宝贵礼物)”可知,文科教育培养的“对话、思辨能力”能帮助应对AI时代的不确定性,体现“智力勇气和适应性”。
【55题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“As we head into a future shaped by powerful and unpredictable machines, the best preparation may not be a new invention, but an old discipline.(当我们步入一个由强大且不可预测的机器所塑造的未来时,最好的准备可能不是一项新发明,而是一门古老的学问)”可推知,文章主张用文科教育这一“古老的学问”来应对和导航AI时代,A选项“文科教育:AI时代的指南针”中,“指南针”的比喻生动贴切地概括了文科教育在技术主导的时代为人的发展和价值判断提供方向的核心作用,准确涵盖了全文主旨。

阅读短文,按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
Recently divorced and jobless, I needed work. I picked up a newspaper, flipped to the want ads, and found: Waitress Wanted-Day Shift. “Why not?” I giggled.
I dressed up in a dark blue pencil skirt and white blouse and said to the mirror, “I can do this.” At the restaurant, the owner asked, “Have you had any experience?” “Oh, yes,” I smiled, listing places I’d worked as a teenager. It wasn’t entirely true — well, maybe a little.
On my first day, the owner placed me in a back room. I busied myself filling salt shakers. Then I looked up to see a “herd” of ten men coming to my station. Panic set in. I picked up menus, my hands shaking. “I can do this,” I repeated.
“Hi, y’all. My name’s Flo. I’m new, so please order the fish special to make it easy on me.” I have no idea why I put on a silly accent, but all the men laughed and ordered the fish.
When the food came, I confidently placed three plates on one arm. Plate one came off nicely. Plate two, the same. Plate three, however, toppled over. Fish, fries and coleslaw fell directly onto the arm of the man in seat three.
I apologized repeatedly and helped clean it, even the kitchen staff joining in. The man complained a bit, my face turning bright red. When I was back to the kitchen, I leaned against the wall, crying. And then I told myself again, “I can do this.” After composing myself, I calmly returned to the table, apologized and offered to pay for the cleaning bill. I brought out the rest of the food without incident.
Feeling my awkwardness, the man softened and they talked in a low voice as if trying not to disturb me. Before leaving, they left on every plate a napkin with a smiley face and a twenty-dollar tip, a silent way to comfort and encourage me. “Yep,” I said to myself warmly, “I can do this.”

【答案】Dear Chris,
Hope you are doing well. I’m writing to share with you the Science and Technology Festival held in our school last month, with the theme “Technology Lights Up Youth”.
During the festival, I took part in a small creative invention competition, which benefited me most. Working with my group members, we designed a simple intelligent device to save electricity in daily life. In the process, we searched for materials, analyzed problems and improved our design again and again. Finally, our work was displayed in the school exhibition.
This experience has brought me new thinking. Technology is not merely advanced knowledge in books, but a powerful tool to change and improve our life. It also teaches me that innovation comes from practice and teamwork.
I’m wondering if your school holds similar activities. I would love it if you could share your interesting experiences with me.
Yours,
Li Hua

I have always felt most comfortable in the classroom, and I enjoy the recognition from family and teachers for accomplishing a job well. Although I was a high achiever, I was not a student who joined every club. Throughout my life, I wanted to learn more than I wanted to be in a bunch of extracurricular activities.
My academic journey continued at a community college, where I joined the student newspaper. In the newsroom, I discovered an engaging, fast-paced world that allowed me to never stop learning. It was just what I had expected. Now my transfer to Drake University for a journalism degree was a no-brainer. It was exciting to see my future become clear, but I never pictured the shock waves headed my way.
The campus phenomenon known as “Drake Busy” was completely unexpected. The term describes the idea that constant busyness is the main indicator of college success. Within the first week, I felt heavy pressure to be active in all the ways my peers were. I saw students trying to balance multiple jobs and organizations alongside schoolwork. As a student used to having confidence in the classroom, I felt this new standard threatened my identity and worsened my anxiety. I spent my first term struggling with doubts about my worthiness. My anxious thoughts tricked my mind into believing lies like “You’re not good enough.” A part of my mind realized those thoughts were not true, but that sensible voice was a whisper compared to the shouts of doubt. As a witness to this battle every day, I have learned that sometimes it just takes time to chip away at my mind’s inventions.
In time, I recognized that my experience as a transfer student was different but valuable. The outsider perspective helped me tackle “Drake Busy”. I watched people trying to do too much at the expense of their well-being. I wanted to shake them and say, “Why do this to yourself?”
Instead of fighting the current, I eventually learned to swim in my own lane. The pressure didn’t disappear, but my need to give in to it did. I realized that my worth wasn’t calculated by the number of meetings on my calendar, but by the real satisfaction I felt in my work. On the days I managed to balance my ambition with my peace of mind, I felt most motivated. I discovered that: true success is defined internally, not by the noise around you.

Secret codes once thought impossible to crack now face a challenge from quantum (量子) computers. Luckily, to protect information, physicist s have developed a theoretically reliable system called device-independent quantum key distribution (DI-QKD), which uses entangled (纠缠的) quantum particles (粒子) to fix weak points in existing methods. Now, a team in China has demonstrated the technique in real city conditions, an advance that could clear the way for a secure quantum internet in which trust is taken for granted.
Most traditional cryptography (密码学) works by encrypting (加密) messages with a secret code that requires a special key to decode. The challenge lies in making sure the key can’t be decoded when sent. For instance, the keys in one popular encryption scheme are based on the main factors of large numbers, which take enormous effort to crack. But such calculations could be quick work for the large quantum computers. QKD offers a solution, but it has a weakness: hardware must be perfect.
DI-QKD removes the need for trust in the hardware by employing another feature of quantum mechanics — entanglement — which closely links properties of widely separated quantum particles. If the sender and receiver entangle (纠缠) a pair of particles across the network, they can each perform tests that confirm the particles’ properties are strongly linked, well beyond chance. After this “handshake”, they can be sure they’re the only ones on the channel. Then, other measurements on the entangled particles can establish a key, which can be shared with confidence that nobody can decode it.
In 2022, a UK-based team managed to create and share a DI-QKD key for only about 2 meters. Now, the Chinese team led by Jianwei Pan have extended this to practically useful distances. After collecting data for 26 days, they showed they had the statistics to establish and share a key across 11 kilometers. The researchers also showed that in theory — and given about 23 years for data collection — they could have sent a key across 100 kilometers. Pan’s group now plans to explore ways to perform DI-QKD using satellites in space.
46. What is the function of DI-QKD?
A. To invent new quantum computers. B. To make traditional codes easier to crack.
C. To solve the safety flaws of present encryption. D. To replace the internet with quantum network.
47. How does the author explain the weakness of traditional cryptography?
A. By making a comparison. B. By giving an example.
C. By listing data. D. By analyzing causes.
48. The underlined word “handshake” in Paragraph 3 refers to ________.
A. physical greeting between researchers B. basic test and identity confirmation
C. formal delivery of secret information D. agreement on future research plans
49. What progress has the Chinese team made in DI-QKD?
A. They realized long distance link in real city environment.
B. They invented the theory of quantum entanglement.
C. They built a complete secure quantum internet.
D. They succeeded in sending keys over 100 kilometers.
50. What is the best title for the text?
A. Quantum Computers: A Threat to Modern Technology
B. Entanglement: The Key to Future Communication
C. DI-QKD: A New Defense Against Quantum Hacking
D. The Development of Global Quantum Internet

Artificial intelligence threatens education’s foundations: cheating is easier, focus is declining, and future careers are unpredictable. While some applaud AI-driven education, many tech leaders advise otherwise.
Investor Chamath Palihapitiya states that coding is no longer necessary, predicting the engineer’s role will be managerial, at best, within 18 months. Honeywell’s CIO Roman Vorel argues that the future belongs to leaders with high EQ — those possessing empathy, self-awareness, and connection skills — as AI will make IQ widely available. Daniel Kokotajlo, co-author of “AI 2027”, says, “economic productivity is no longer the primary goal. What still matters is that my kids are good people — and that they have wisdom and virtue.”
It might seem like a demanding task to cultivate attention, empathy, judgment and character: hard to measure and even harder to mass-produce. Surprisingly, liberal education offers an ancient answer. Despite the fact that small liberal arts colleges may admit only a modest 4% of our undergraduates, they are, historically and today, the seed bank for deep humanistic education.
Liberal education engages seriously with foundational texts and discoveries that have shaped our understanding of truth, justice and the nature of the world. Students don’t just absorb information — they dialogue, asking “what is the good life?”, which may sound modest but powerful to develop the skills students most need. Wrestling with challenging texts builds attention. Conversation sharpens careful speaking and listening, and the ability to weigh opposing views. This education cultivates wisdom resistant to AI’s shortcuts. At St. John’s College, for example, you will be lost in class, trying to fake a two-hour conversation about “Don Quixote” (堂吉诃德) after reading an AI summary.
Interestingly, four years largely removed from the influence of technology is one the best ways of preparing for life and work in an increasingly technologized world. Carla Echevarria, a 1996 graduate of St. John’s college and now a senior manager of user experience at Google DeepMind, admits that she would “struggle with complex scientific theories in senior lab and then bang my head against classic philosophical texts for a couple of hours while listening to a powerful piece of classic music. That brings an intellectual fearlessness, which is the greatest gift of the education.”
As we head into a future shaped by powerful and unpredictable machines, the best preparation may not be a new invention, but an old discipline. We don’t need new colleges, but we need existing colleges and universities to embrace a revival of these deeply humanizing educational practices.
51. The author cites statements from technology leaders to _________.
A. stress the falling need for coding skills B. blame the fast growth of AI technologies
C. show the urge to reshape present education D. call for technical skills to be included in education
52. What can be inferred about humanistic qualities in Paragraph 3?
A. They are more valued in modern education than academic performance.
B. They are not easily measurable through conventional methods.
C. They can only be developed through liberal arts education.
D. They have become less important in the AI-dominated era.
53. What is the main idea of Paragraph 4?
A. Classic works like Don Quixote are key to liberal education.
B. Liberal education builds human qualities through deep reading.
C. AI summaries cannot replace real text engagement.
D. Liberal education focuses on exploring life questions.
54. What does the author intend to show through the example of Carla Echevarria?
A. Classic texts offer information beyond AI’s reach.
B. Traditional learning is becoming outdated due to AI.
C. Small colleges should expand to spread liberal education.
D. Liberal education fosters intellectual courage and adaptability.
55. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. Liberal Education: An AI Age Compass B. Future Education: Embracing AI Offerings
C. Liberal Education: A Battlefield for Colleges D. Future Education: Overcoming AI with EQ

Recently divorced and jobless, I needed work. I picked up a newspaper, flipped to the want ads, and found: Waitress Wanted-Day Shift. “Why not?” I giggled.
I dressed up in a dark blue pencil skirt and white blouse and said to the mirror, “I can do this.” At the restaurant, the owner asked, “Have you had any experience?” “Oh, yes,” I smiled, listing places I’d worked as a teenager. It wasn’t entirely true — well, maybe a little.
On my first day, the owner placed me in a back room. I busied myself filling salt shakers. Then I looked up to see a “herd” of ten men coming to my station. Panic set in. I picked up menus, my hands shaking. “I can do this,” I repeated.
“Hi, y’all. My name’s Flo. I’m new, so please order the fish special to make it easy on me.” I have no idea why I put on a silly accent, but all the men laughed and ordered the fish.
When the food came, I confidently placed three plates on one arm. Plate one came off nicely. Plate two, the same. Plate three, however, toppled over. Fish, fries and coleslaw fell directly onto the arm of the man in seat three.
I apologized repeatedly and helped clean it, even the kitchen staff joining in. The man complained a bit, my face turning bright red. When I was back to the kitchen, I leaned against the wall, crying. And then I told myself again, “I can do this.” After composing myself, I calmly returned to the table, apologized and offered to pay for the cleaning bill. I brought out the rest of the food without incident.
Feeling my awkwardness, the man softened and they talked in a low voice as if trying not to disturb me. Before leaving, they left on every plate a napkin with a smiley face and a twenty-dollar tip, a silent way to comfort and encourage me. “Yep,” I said to myself warmly, “I can do this.”
