B There is a time in every boy’s life when he wants to go and dig for treasure. And that time came for Tom. So, one hot summer’s day, he went to find Huck... There were holes in the floor, and through them the boys could see into the rooms downstairs. “No,” Tom whispered. “It’s two men. One is the old Spaniard. He came to live in the village last week. I don’t know the other man. Sh! Let’s listen to them.” The two men sat down on the floor. The Spaniard had a green hat and long white hair; the other man was small and dark. He took out a bag and began to open it. “It’s hot here,” the Spaniard said. He took off his green hat and then he took off his long white hair! “Tom!” Huck whispered upstairs. “That’s Injun Joe!” “We took six hundred and fifty dollars when we robbed that house,” said the second man. He took some money out of the bag. “We can take fifty dollars with us now. What are we going to do with the six hundred?” “Leave it here,” said Injun Joe. “We can come back and get it next week. Here, give me the bag.” He walked across the room to the fireplace, moved two big stones from the floor, and began to dig with his knife. Upstairs, the two boys watched excitedly. Treasure! Six hundred dollars of wonderful treasure! Injun Joe stopped digging. “Hello, what’s this?” he said. “There’s something here. It’s an old box.” The two men got the box out and opened it. “It’s money!” said Injun Joe’s friend. Injun Joe put his hand into the box. “There are thousands of dollars here!” he said, and the two men looked at the money with happy smiles. “But who—” began Injun Joe’s friend. “Don’t ask,” Injun Joe said. “It’s our money now.” “We can’t take it with us today,” said his friend. “What can we do with it? Put it back under the floor?” “Yes,” said Injun Joe. (Happy faces upstairs.) “No! (Very unhappy faces upstairs.) Let’s put it under the cross—nobody goes there. We can take it there tonight.” When night came, the two men carried all the money away. The boys wanted very much to find that “cross”, but they were afraid of Injun Joe. —Adapted from The Adventures of Tom Sawyer 29. What does the underlined word “it” in the passage refer to? A.

Some are as tiny as a grain (粒) of rice. These little animals spend most of their lives in the deep, dark parts of the ocean. New research shows that they are very important in protecting our planet against climate change. Scientists from China, the UK, and Canada studied these animals in the Southern Ocean. They focused on three kinds of these animals that eat tiny plants near the ocean’s surface. These plants take in carbon dioxide (CO2), a gas that makes the world warmer. But here is the key finding: in winter, the small animals swim down to about 500 meters below the surface. There, they breathe out the CO2 from the plants they have eaten. This process, like a natural pump (泵), carries the gas down into the deep ocean. Every year, this natural pump carries a lot of carbon-more than 70 million tons-to the deep ocean. It’s so deep that the CO2 cannot return to the air quickly. So it slows down the process of the gas going into the air. Without these animals, the level of CO2 in the air would be much higher. So, these tiny sea animals are true “unknown heroes”. The study points out how crucial it is to protect the Southern Ocean. However, fishing activities there are putting some small sea animals in danger. We must be careful not to harm this natural pump. 33. Why does the writer mention “a grain of rice” in Paragraph 1? A. To describe the animals’ color. B. To show how tiny the animals are. C. To compare the animals’ shape. D. To explain why the animals live in the ocean. 34. What do the tiny sea animals do in winter? A. B. C. D. 35. What does the underlined word “crucial” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Easy. B. Safe. C. Special. D. Important. 36. What is the best title for the passage? A. The Danger to Ocean Animals B. The secrets of the Southern Ocean C. Unknown Heroes in the Ocean D. New Findings on the Southern Ocean D There’s much excitement and argument about Artificial Intelligence(AI). One heated debate is whether robots will replace teachers in classrooms. Some think it’ll happen in the next ten years, while others believe a good teacher’s value, like building a child’s confidence and creativity, can’t be easily replaced. AI is not new for us and is already being used successfully in many fields, such as medicine, science and so on. So what does this mean for our future? In my view, AI will help kids to think more freely and creatively. Can AI possibly cut down the teaching work in the future, too? Of course. Our teachers are always busy preparing materials for their lessons. Just imagine how happy they would be if they don’t have to copy hundreds of papers, but instead, have this task or others done by machines. However, most importantly, I believe AI will not be able to copy the human mental condition totally, especially emotional intelligence(情商). What makes learning unforgettable is shared experience, human interaction(互相作用), and long-lasting positive relationships. For example, experienced teachers can comfort a student if he has suffered a serious loss. But robots may not do this well. I also believe we need to continue to celebrate our kids’ personality and their ability not only to make decisions but also make the right decisions. These are skills that they can get as they get more life experience and are given the space to experiment. In short, AI in education has both advantage and disadvantage. It’s a useful tool. It helps students learn better and reduces teachers’ workload. But it can never replace teachers. Teachers understand students’ feelings, guide them, and help with their overall development. The future of education needs to combine the good points of AI with teachers’ special abilities. This way, we can create a nice and efficient learning environment. 37. How does the writer start the passage? A. By telling stories. B. By comparing views. C. By raising questions. D. By giving suggestions. 38. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about? A. Why teachers can be replaced in classrooms. B. There is argument over Artificial Intelligence. C. AI is only being used successfully in education. D. How helpful AI can be to both students and teachers. 39. What’s the structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 40. What’s the writer’s attitude (态度) towards the use of AI in education? A. AI is useless in education. B. AI will completely replace teachers. C. Teachers should only rely on AI in teaching. D. AI can be helpful but teachers’ role is still important. 第二节： 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺连贯，其中有两项是多余选项。 The Luban Pillow is a special type of pillow that comes from China and has been used for a long time.

The book mainly records Confucius’s thoughts and his conversations with his students. Written by his students after his death, this classic work has influenced Chinese culture for centuries. Confucius lived during a time of social unrest in ancient China. He travelled around different states, sharing his ideas on how to lead a moral life, keep good relationships and govern a country well. Therefore, the book covers a wide range of topics like learning, friendship, good behaviour and how to be a good leader. For example, “To learn and at due times to repeat what one has learned, is that not after all a pleasure?” shows Confucius’advice on studying. “Not doing to others what we do not desire ourselves.” teaches us to treat others with kindness and respect. Over the centuries, The Analects has had a great influence on Chinese society. It helps people understand how to be good citizens, build good relationships and develop a positive attitude towards life. Even today, many schools in China teach The Analects to help students learn traditional Chinese values. This wonderful book truly is a guide that can lead us to a better life. 66.
