On a stormy day last August, Tim heard some shouting. Looking out to the sea, he saw a couple of kids in a rowboat were being pulled out to sea.
Two boys, Christian and Jack, rowed (划船) out a boat to search for a football. Once they’d rowed beyond the calm waters, a beach umbrella tied to the boat caught the wind and pulled the boat into open water. The boys were worried and tried to row back to the beach. But they could not fight against it and the boat was out of control.
Tim knew it would soon be swallowed by the waves.
Tim took off his clothes and jumped into the water. Every 500 yards or so, he raised his head to judge his progress. “At one point, I considered turning back,” he says. “I wondered if I was putting my life at risk.” After 30 minutes of struggling, he was close enough to call to the boys, “Take down the umbrella! Let’s aim for the pier (码头),” Jack said. Tim turned the boat toward it. Soon, waves crashed over the boat, and it began to sink. “Can you guys swim?” he cried. “A little bit,” the boys said.
Once they were in the water, Tim decided it would be safer and faster for him to pull the boys toward the pier. Christian and Jack were wearing life jackets and floated on their backs. Tim swam toward land as water washed over the boys’ faces. “Are we almost there?” they asked again and again. “Yes,” Tim told them each time. After 30 minutes, they reached the pier.
(1) Why did the two boys go to the sea?
A. To go boat rowing. B. To get back their football.
C. To swim in the open water. D. To test the umbrella as a sail.
(2)What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. The wind. B. The water. C. The boat. D. The beach.
(3)Why did Tim raise his head regularly?
A. To take in enough fresh air.
B. To consider turning back or not.
C. To check how far he was from the boys.
D. To ask the boys to take down the umbrella.
(4)Which can be used to describe Tim according to the story?
A. Naughty but clever. B. Helpful and brave. C. Strong and creative. D. Responsible and honest.

“I am not an American,” Mark Twain (1835—1910) once said. “I am the American.”
He had good reason to say so. A Nobel winner in literature, US playwright Eugene O'Neill called him “the true father of American literature”. “Mark Twain is all of our grandfather,” agreed William Faulkner, another Nobel winner.
Twain is someone Americans are taught to love. Older relatives, English teachers and the media often praise him. But when you actually take the time to read The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, which was first published 140 years ago, you will find that his work is more wonderful than you could ever have imagined.
The novel describes a young boy named Tom Sawyer growing up in a small town along the Mississippi River. He explores the countryside on a riverboat with his friends, falls in love with girls, starts secret clubs and searches for treasure. Twain’s idea of childhood is magical—a time of imagination, wonder and, of course, adventure.
Most importantly, through the eyes of Tom Sawyer, Twain cleverly makes fun of the US culture. For example, Tom hates going to church, and Twain uses Tom to make fun of its old traditions.
Twain’s writing is full of these kinds of critical points about the culture and the society of the US at the time. That’s why he is so beloved in the US—he wasn’t afraid to express his opinions, and he did so clearly.
For instance, Twain didn’t like US wars abroad, and he wrote openly about it in a newspaper article in 1900. He also believed strongly in women’s right to vote in elections and gave a famous speech on the subject, called “Votes for Women”, in 1901.
“Tom was a glittering hero once more—the pet of the old, the envy of the young,” Twain wrote in The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. But he could just as well have been describing himself.
(1) Why are two Nobel winners mentioned at the beginning?
A. To show they were as successful as Mark Twain.
B. To show their close relationship with Mark Twain.
C. To show how American literature developed.
D. To show Mark Twain’s influence.
(2)What is most special about the novel The Adventures of Tom Sawyer?
A. It describes how a young boy grows up.
B. It introduces the famous Mississippi River.
C. It presents a magical idea of childhood.
D. It cleverly criticizes the US culture.
(3)How does the writer show Twain was fearless to voice his opinions?
A. By giving a speech. B. By showing numbers.
C. By giving examples. D. By using sentences from his book.
(4)What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. Mark Twain was very much like Tom.
B. Mark Twain was a hero in American literature.
C. Mark Twain should be more confident in himself.
D. Mark Twain made a wonderful description of Tom.

Were you surprised by the humanoid robots performing the Yangko dance at this year’s Spring Festival Gala? And that’s not all! Another humanoid robot can even do a front flip. These days, humanoid robots seem to be able to do almost anything. But what makes them so smart?
The secret lies in Artificial Intelligence (AI). Since 2022, great progress in AI has pushed humanoid robots to the next level. Companies are developing amazing technologies like Large Language Models (LLMs).
An expert said that LLMs, which power ChatGPT, can be used to improve robotics. LLMs learn from tons of data and use that knowledge to help robots think. Visual AI helps robots understand what they see in photos and videos. This mix of LLMs and visual AI enables robots to know how things connect, improving their ability to move and complete tasks.
But being smart isn’t enough—robots also need to move smoothly. In the past, even simple tasks like picking up an apple were hard for robots. These days, new technology makes robots do those things more easily. It helps robots in different ways. For example, using special materials makes robots strong and flexible. While sensors let them see, hear and “feel” their environment, motors help them move easily. Take the Unitree Robotics’ H1 humanoid robot as an example. It has a 3D LIDAR Sensor, a depth camera and a powerful M107 joint motor that helps the robot move its arms and legs smoothly.
Humanoid robots are on the rise. The market for these robots could be worth about 276.9 billion yuan by 2035. They are not just fun to watch—they are changing the future!
(1) Why have humanoid robots already moved to the next level nowadays?
A. Because of a 3D LIDAR Sensor
B. Because of the high speed of 5G
C. Because of the development of AI
D. Because of the special materials
(2)How do LLMs and visual AI work together to help robots?
A. They help robots do front flips
B. They teach robots to dance the Yangko
C. They make robots stronger and more flexible
D. They allow robots to think and understand images
(3)Why does the writer mention the number in the last paragraph?
A. To explain that China leads the robot market
B. To show that the robot market is promising
C. To tell us that AI controls our daily lives
D. To express that robots’ prices will rise
(4)What does the passage mainly tell us?
A. The ways to improve robots
B. The future market of robots
C. Robots are becoming smarter
D. Robots in the Spring Festival Gala

One dark stormy night, an elderly couple hurried into a hotel and asked whether they could be put up for the night. “I’m sorry,” the clerk on night duty said politely, “All the rooms are taken tonight, but I can’t send a nice couple like you out in the rain. Would you be willing to stay in my room? It’s not exactly a hotel room but it will make you comfortable. As I’m on duty, I’ll be staying up in the office anyway.” The elderly couple accepted his offer thankfully.
The next day, when the old gentleman went to pay his bill, the clerk behind the reception desk was that same helpful young man. “The room you and your wife stayed in is not a proper guestrooms o you don’t need to pay,” said the clerk with the same friendly smile. The old gentleman nodded with a smile, “You’re an employee (雇员) that every boss in the hotel business would dream of. Perhaps someday I’ll build a hotel for you.” The clerk was amazed but he decided that the guest must have been joking. He gave no more thoughts to what the old man said.

The gentleman pointed to a great new building and said, “Look, that is the hotel I promised to build for you. I hope you’ll manage it for me.” The young man was shocked, “Sir, why do you choose me and who are you?” “My name is William Aster. Like I told you before, you are the best employee I could ever dream of.”
This building was the Waldorf Astoria Hotel. This hotel has been a symbol in the city of New York and the No.1 choice for visiting leaders from different countries. The young man who became its first manager was George Bolt. He turned Waldorf into one of the most famous hotels in the world.

One evening, Helen was sitting around in the garden when she heard a loud noise. At first, she thought something had fallen from her newly repaired house. But as she walked to the front, she saw a small crowd gathered on the sidewalk outside.
When she walked towards the crowd, she saw a man lying in a pool of blood near a broken motorbike. His leg was almost cut off at the knee. Luckily, when Helen asked how he was doing, the young man could still talk, even though he was in great pain. Helen knew some knowledge about first aid and had taken a first aid course with the British Red Cross. She used her skills to quickly check the situation. Then she ran back to her house to get some thick towels to stop the bleeding (流血).
When Helen came back with the towels, someone in the crowd had called an ambulance, but the young man was still bleeding heavily. “When I returned, I noticed that others were afraid to come to the front to help. I tried my best to use the towel to press on the wound until the ambulance arrived.” Helen recalled. Then she managed to stop the bleeding and comforted the young man while they waited for help to arrive. Soon, the ambulance team showed up.
Unluckily, the doctors couldn’t save the man’s leg, but they did save his life and Helen’s actions played a key role. Without the simple but effective first aid skills Helen used, the outcome of the accident could have been far worse.
“Knowing first aid gave me the confidence to assess the situation, stay calm, and most importantly, to step in and help in an emergency situation when others wouldn’t. I feel so glad that my first aid knowledge helped me save a stranger’s life,” Helen said.
1.What did Helen notice when she returned with the towels?
A.The ambulance had already arrived. B.The young man had stopped bleeding.
C.Nobody came forward to help the young man. D.Some doctors were saving the young man’s life.
2.Which of the following can best describe Helen?
A.She is a professional doctor.
B.She knew little about first aid knowledge.
C.She was too afraid to help the injured young man.

Huang Xuhua, an excellent Chinese scientist, passed away on February 6th, 2025. But his amazing achievements and strong spirit will always be remembered and will guide China’s future.
Born in Guangdong Province in 1926, Huang saw his country suffer from foreign attacks during his childhood. Because of these bad memories and experiences, he made up his mind to study hard and use his knowledge to make his country stronger. In the 1950s, China began the challenging task of building nuclear submarines (核潜艇). Huang Xuhua bravely joined this project. At that time, there wasn’t much advanced technology or resources, this task was like climbing a very high mountain.
Huang and his team faced many challenges while keeping the project a secret. They mustn’t share their work with anyone outside their group, not even their families. So Huang was away from home for years. As they worked on designing the submarines, they faced significant problems. For example, building a nuclear reactor was very difficult, and they couldn’t ask foreign experts for help. Instead, they had to depend on their own research and used simple tools like abacuses and slide rules to make calculations and conduct experiments. Another major challenge was ensuring the submarine could remain stable underwater. After many tests, they gradually found solutions to these problems.
Finally, in the 1970s, China successfully built and tested its first nuclear submarine. This made China one of the few countries that could do this. Huang didn’t stop there. He continued to improve submarine technology and received many awards for his hard work, including the “Medal of the Republic” in 2019.
As we remember Huang Xuhua, we realize his life inspires us all. Young people, in particular, should learn from his courage, bravery and determination. By facing challenges and working hard, we can help make China stronger and keep his legacy alive.

EARTHQUAKEOn March 29th in 2025, a strong earthquake with a magnitude of 7.9 shook Southeast Asia. The epicenter was in Mandalay, the second-largest city in Myanmar. The earthquake destroyed many buildings and resulted in more than 1,000 deaths. Even Bangkok, which is 600 miles away, felt the shaking and saw damage, including a skyscraper that fell down. How did the earthquake happen?
The movements of different plates on Earth create stress and cause earthquakes. The following Earthquake Diagram explains how earthquakes happen.
The earthquake in Myanmar comes from the ongoing crashing between the Indian Ocean Plate and the Eurasian Plate. Myanmar lies where these two big plates meet. That’s why Myanmar often feels the effects of these powerful natural events. The Earthquake Diagram
①The fault line (the place where two tectonic plates meet)
②The tectonic plates (two tectonic plates moving sideways)
③The epicenter (It is on the ground above the focus. This is where the earthquake shakes the most and makes the biggest impact.)
④The focus (It is where the pressure builds up.)
⑤Shock waves (vibrations, spread out in all directions)
What should we do if earthquake happens? If You Are Indoors:
* Stay Calm: The first thing to do is to stay calm. Don’t panic.
* Find Shelter: Quickly move under a table or desk. Hold on to the legs of the furniture to protect your head and body from falling objects. Stay away from windows and glass doors.
* Stay Put: If you are in a small room like a bathroom or closet, stay there until the shaking stops.
* Avoid lift: Do not use the lift during an earthquake. Use the stairs to get to a safe place.
If You Are Outdoors:
Quickly move to an open space like a park or a playground. Stay away from dangerous objects such as walls, fences, trees or bridges,
After the Earthquake:
* Be Prepared for Aftershocks: There might be smaller earthquakes. Stay alert and be prepared to take cover again.
* Check for Injuries: Help others if you can, but be careful not to put yourself in danger.
1.According to the Earthquake Diagram, where is Mandalay exactly located?
A.① B.② C.③ D.④
2.Why does Myanmar often suffer from strong earthquakes?
A.Because it is on the epicenter. B.Because it lies on the fault line.
C.Because it is on the Indian Ocean Plate. D.Because it is 600 miles away from Bangkok.
3.Suppose Li Hua is in the classroom on the fifth floor when an earthquake happens. What should he do first?
A.Help others and check their injuries. B.Take the lift to go downstairs.
C.Hide next to the window. D.Stay under the desk.
4.Where may this passage come from?
A.A safety guide about earthquake. B.A travel guide of Mandalay, Myanmar.
C.A geography text book for students. D.A scientific research paper on earthquakes.

On January 20, 2025, DeepSeek launched its R1 LLM, which quickly became popular, even surpassing Open AI’s Chat GPT in the Apple App Store. This large number of users created a big buzz in the tech world and even affected the stock prices of many AI companies.
One of the best features of DeepSeek is that it is open-source, which means it is free to use, and anyone can change its code. This makes it much cheaper—20 to 50 times less expensive—than Open AI’s GPT-3 model. Unlike other AIs that need many examples to learn, R1 can improve on its own. In a global math test, DeepSeek R1 scored 79.8%, which is slightly better than Open AI’s model. This is another advantage of Deep Seek.
DeepSeek is easy to use, even on basic computers. A simpler version of R1 can run on low-cost computers, making it helpful for schools and small businesses. Many schools in China now use DeepSeek to create quizzes and study materials. For students, DeepSeek is like a 24/7 study partner! Its AI models can solve math problems step-by-step, explain tricky science concepts, and check grammar mistakes in English essays. Imagine asking, “How do I calculate the area of a triangle?” and getting the answer at once with clear examples.
While it can be helpful, students might start to rely too much on it for answers, which could make it harder for them to think critically and solve problems on their own. This raises concerns about whether AI can help students truly understand and arouse their interests in learning.
At a recent forum on March 22nd, a professor shared a poem written by DeepSeek. He said, “The poem is well written. Technology can copy style and tone. But...you know, as the Chinese saying goes, it is easy to draw a dragon, but rather difficult to put in the life-giving eyes.”
In conclusion, as technology like DeepSeek benefits students a lot, it also presents challenges for teachers. Educators need to help students balance its use with regular study methods. Guide them to think carefully about the information that AI tools provide.
1.What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?
A.How DeepSeek R1 performs in math test.
B.Why DeepSeek R1 is cheaper than GPT-3.
C.Why DeepSeek R1 is better than other AIs.
D.How DeepSeek R1 improves its performance.
2.Which best summarizes the role of DeepSeek for students?
A.A professional math teacher. B.An all-day study partner.
C.An English grammar helper. D.A science concepts assistant.
3.What can we infer about the poem mentioned in Paragraph 5?
A.It was short of real feelings or depth.
B.It was better than other famous poems.
C.It was praised by everyone for its creativity.
D.It showed that AI can write as well as humans.
4.What is the writer’s opinion towards the use of AI in education?
A.AI is much better than teachers.
B.AI brings both benefits and challenges.
C.AI benefits students more than teachers.
D.AI can solve all the problems for teachers and students.
