There are lots of tests in school, like English tests, math tests and running tests. Have you ever heard about a bicycle riding test? Some students in China are having this new test.
To make students safe on the roads, some schools are holding bicycle riding tests for students over 12 years old. The schools also give classes about traffic rules. Students can learn to ride a bicycle with the help of their teachers. The test includes (包括) riding skills, such as the moves of getting on and off, making 90 degrees (度) turn, passing through a narrow (窄的) road, riding on the path in the shape of S and stopping suddenly.
Once they pass the test, they will get a “riding license”. Many students ride to school in China. Most students and parents welcome this new test.
Schools in Shanghai first asked their students over 12 to take a “riding license” about 10 years ago. Students can’t go to school by bicycle without a license.

①Can you imagine a doctor performing a surgery (手术) on a patient thousands of kilometers away? A recent surgery was done by doctors in Chengdu in reality. Using a robotic technology, the doctors saved a patient in Lhasa (拉萨). With the development of AI-powered remote surgery, modern healthcare has changed in a big way.
②AI played an important part in this surgery. By studying tons of medical data (数据), AI helps doctors plan the surgery, predict problems that could happen, and find the solutions.
③During the surgery, AI also tells the doctors the patient's necessary information, like heart rate, blood pressure and oxygen levels. If anything of the patient goes wrong, it can warn the medical team and suggest changes to the surgery plan.
④Another key role in this surgery was supercomputing technology. Remote surgeries need fast data transmission (传送), as even small delays (延迟) can be dangerous. Supercomputing can quickly deal with a lot of data, making sure that the surgery pictures are clear and that the doctors' orders are followed at once.
⑤The robot used in this surgery does an excellent job. It has one arm and one hole, which makes the cut smaller, making less pain and speeding up the process for the patient to get better. It also increases the chances of a successful surgery and lowers the risk of accidents.
⑥This kind of surgery is a huge excitement, especially for people in remote areas. It means that patients don't have to travel far for good medical care, saving time and being treated in time.
⑦And for places with fewer doctors, this kind of surgery also brings good news as doctors from bigger cities can help with surgeries and train local doctors. This kind of surgery is important for improving healthcare everywhere.
9. How does the writer lead into AI-powered remote surgery?
A. By giving reasons. B. By telling a story.
C. By listing numbers. D. By giving an example.
10. Which of the following questions is answered in Paragraph 4?
A. Why does the surgery need the help of supercomputer?
B. Where was the AI-powered remote surgery performed?
C. How's the normal computer different from the supercomputer?
D. When is the best time for the supercomputer to deal with the data?
11. What is the main advantage of the surgical robot mentioned in Paragraph 5?
A. It can work without any internet connection.
B. It is cheaper than traditional surgical methods.
C. It can perform surgeries without any human doctors.
D. It makes smaller cuts, reduces pain, and speeds up recovery.
12. What can we infer about AI-powered remote surgery from the passage?
A. No matter how far the place is, this kind of surgery can reach.
B. AI can warn the doctors if anything goes wrong with the patient.
C. The doctors in Lhasa might improve their skills through this kind of surgery.
D. The patient in Lhasa may get better a little slower through this kind of surgery.
D
Schools around the world are finding new ways to make class breaks both fun and healthy.
In the state of Maine, USA, many schools are building nature-based playgrounds. Instead of metal and plastic, these playgrounds are built of rocks, wood, plants, and water. Here, students can watch bees, grow vegetables and learn from nature. Meanwhile, in Finland, a school has introduced an “iWall”—an exercise gaming wall that offers active games like dancing, football, and ski jumping. Since the iWall was set up, students have used it more than 18,000 times and spent over 300 hours on it.
Chinese schools are also bringing new ideas to class breaks. In some schools in Shenyang, Liaoning Province, class-break activities are now powered by AI technology. Students use facial recognition to record their activities and play VR sports games. Another example is Shanghai Baoshan No. 2 Central Primary School. There, students design their dream playground with LEGO bricks (积木), which helps encourage students’ creativity and imagination. To let students fully enjoy the space they have created, the school has even made break time 5 to 20 minutes longer.
Education experts point out that active and enough breaks help students return to class with better focus, which is important for children’s growth in body, mind, and social skills.
13. What are the school playgrounds in Maine made of?
A. Natural materials. B. Recycled waste. C. Special vegetables. D. Metal and plastic.
14. What do the numbers in paragraph 2 show?
A. The games are easy to play. B. The iWall is popular.
C. Many schools have an iWall. D. The iWall is expensive.
15. How are the class-break activities in Shenyang, Liaoning Province?
A. Traditional. B. Green C. Smart. D. Free.
16. Why is the LEGO playground built?
A. To make the playground brighter. B. To improve students’ sports skills.
C. To help develop students’ creativity. D. To teach students how to design toys.

四、阅读与表达(共4小题,41-43小题,每小题2分,44题4分;满分10分)
阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。
We do everything in a hurry—finishing our meals, completing our tasks, running to the gyms... We choose fast living because we think we have no control of time. We try to do as much as we can each day, checking off tasks on our to-do lists. Living in a rush feels like we are always pressed for time.
Our way of thinking that is focused on speed values doing more over doing things well. For a long time, we believe that speed means being productive and successful, and therefore, we keep rushing here and there in doing everything. Yet from time to time, we find ourselves in a predicament (困境) that no matter how fast we go, we never seem to be quick enough to catch up with our endless tasks and goals.
The Slow Movement thinks that the answer to our predicament is not to live faster, but to learn how to live slower. The movement began with the Slow Food Program, which was set up in 1986. It believed that we should fight against fast-food restaurants, protect traditional cooking, and encourage people to enjoy preparing and eating food.
The belief finally spread from the Slow Food Program to other parts of life. In 1999, it helped create Cittaslow—a group focused on slowing down life in cities. This belief about slowing down quickly began to influence areas like work, travel, fashion, and living in general.
The main idea of the Slow Movement is to value quality over quantity (数量) . Slow living is a lifestyle based on the Slow Movement. Its goal is to free us from endless rush that stops us from enjoying moments of rest. Slow living encourages us to live each moment whole-heartedly and give everything the time it needs, rather than try to do as many things as possible in every minute of our lives. Today, more people are drawn to the idea of the Slow Movement, thanks to social media sharing the many benefits of living slowly.
41. Why do people choose fast living?
_____________________________
42. What is the answer to our predicament, according to the Slow Movement?
_____________________________
43. What is the main idea of the Slow Movement?
_____________________________
44. Which lifestyle do you prefer, fast living or slow living? Why? (Please give two reasons.)
_____________________________
