Artificial Intelligence (AI) is making education better and more fun. In the past, students learned mostly from books and teachers. Now, AI tools help them learn faster and make learning more enjoyable.
AI helps students improve in languages like English. For example, New Oriental’s Word Camp uses AI to teach 4,000 key English words. These words are divided into four levels, ranging(排序) from easy to difficult. A virtual(虚拟的) teacher works all day to fix mistakes, explain words simply, and change lessons to fit each student’s needs. It also uses smart ways to help students retain words for a long time.
Another tool, New Oriental’s Reading Camp, gives students new stories and news every week. The reading materials start easy and gradually become difficult. A virtual reading helper breaks down each sentence, just like a real teacher.
▲ AI grading tools save teachers’ time. Tools like DeepSeek’s math helper can quickly find the mistakes in the homework and provide clear explanations, making it easier to correct mistakes step by step. Smart learning systems answer teachers’ questions right away and give more examples. If they need more help, the system will give them more practice.
However, some people think students might use AI too much and then they will not try to solve problems on their own. So what we should be doing is using AI as a helper, not letting it do all the work. AI makes learning easier and more interesting. If we use it wisely, AI can benefit both students and teachers. As AI grows, education will keep improving!
1. How does New Oriental’s Word Camp organize the 4,000 English words?
A. According to students’ preferences.
B. By ranging them from A to Z order.
C. Based on how common the words are.
D. By ranging them from easy to difficult levels.
2. What does the underlined word “retain” mean in Paragraph 2?
A. Forget. B. Share. C. Remember. D. Create.
3. Which of the following can be put in “ ▲ ” in Paragraph 4?
A. AI helps teachers too. B. AI makes students forget.
C. AI can do homework now. D. AI changes classrooms every day.
4. What is people’s worry about AI in education?
A. Teachers will lose their jobs. B. It may cost too much money.
C. It could make lessons too difficult. D. Students might become less independent.
5. What is the best title for this passage?
A. The History of AI in Schools B. How AI is Changing Education
C. Why Teachers Are Still Important D. The Dangers of Using AI in Learning
