(2026·河北石家庄教学质量检测)Like a lot of Canadians, Andrew Suboch grew up knowing little about Canada's national game—lacrosse (曲棍球), other than watching some neighbours pass a ball using old wooden sticks.
It was only when his two children started playing the game as part of their training for hockey (冰球) that he took much notice.His son, Jack, went on to excel at lacrosse and he now plays for the Vancouver Warriors of the National Lacrosse League.
Both children came up through the Mimico Minor Lacrosse organization, in the Toronto area, which has been around since 1890.When the number of players in the kids' league began falling in 2014, Mr.Suboch, who is a personal injury lawyer in Toronto, volunteered to step in.He offered to sponsor the “Baby Peanut” program, which introduced children ages 3 and 4 to the game.
Thanks to his sponsorship, more than 100 children play for free each spring for eight weeks.They spend an hour every Saturday learning the game and every player is given a lightweight stick and a shirt.“They are taught to catch, throw, pass and shoot in a noncontact environment,” he said.“You get them running around.Get them away from the screen.It is our national game, so you get them exposed.And sure enough, they caught on.”
To fund the program, Mr.Suboch came up with a novel idea.He started searching his neighbourhood for used appliances, metal and electronic items, such as computers and cellphones.He sorted the material and sold it to a local recycling centre.“Word has gotten out, so people now will give me their used electronics and metal stuff,” he said.The recycling effort raises around $20,000 annually, which covers the cost of the lacrosse program.
Mr.Suboch said watching the kids play has given him a lot of satisfaction and joy.Not only is far less junk going to landfill sites, he said, but “we've also got kids who are not in front of a screen”.

(2026·海南海口仿真考试)Students are already using AI in different ways.A recent report by the Center for Digital Thriving at Harvard Graduate School of Education explores the opinions of teens aged 13-17 on AI.In this report, teens share their opinions and concerns about AI and how the use of AI impacts learning and the world at large.Here's what they think adults should know.
AI should not be a tool for cheating.While some admitted ever using AI to cheat on assignments, homework, or tests, many participants emphasized the positive academic experiences with AI, describing it as “the modern approach to learning”.Teens also expressed a desire for adults to trust them to use AI responsibly, as one teen noted, “to get ideas for writing a paper or to create a personal learning plan.”
AI can serve as a resource for unasked questions.The top two most frequently reported uses of AI are seeking information (53%) and brainstorming (51%).Many noted AI can help them get answers to questions they may be too afraid to ask adults, or give guidance on what to say in conversations.
AI is also a platform for exploration and creativity.One of the most encouraging aspects about AI is its potential to foster creativity and innovation.Numerous participants reported using AI for enjoyment and creative pursuits, such as writing song lyrics and creating digital art.Among the AI users surveyed, 31% say they use it to “create pictures or images”, while 16% report they use it to “make music”, and 15% state they use it to write code.
Some are concerned about the potential AIrelated harms of bullying.“One of my classmates ever used it to take my voice and make it sound like I was saying something I didn't say,” complained a teen.Some expressed concerns about its potential effects on the future job markets, as well as worries regarding privacy violations and the dissemination of misinformation.
[语篇解读] 这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一篇报告的相关内容。这篇报告是关于13~17岁的青少年对人工智能的看法,提到了青少年对人工智能以及人工智能的使用如何影响学习和整个世界的看法和担忧。
5.What does “the modern approach to learning” in paragraph 2 imply?
A.AI should replace traditional learning.
B.AI can improve and enhance one's learning.
C.AI can help a student become more responsible.
D.AI should be banned for the possible use of cheating.

(2026·江西南昌联考)These days it's quite easy to strike up a conversation with artificial intelligence (AI).Ask some chatbots a question, and they'll even provide an engaging response verbally.You can chat with them across multiple languages and request a reply in a particular dialect or accent.
It is now even possible to use AIpowered speech cloning tools to imitate the voices of real humans.It raises an interesting question:Is there anything unique about the human voice to help us distinguish it from robospeech?
Jonathan Harrington, a professor of phonetics (语音学) and digital speech processing at the University of Munich, Germany, has spent decades studying the complexity of how humans talk and produce the sounds of words and accents.Even he is impressed by the capabilities of AIpowered voice tools.But he believes there are still some important cues that can help us to tell if we are talking to a human or an Al.“To some extent, computergenerated speech has been quite poor and not very humanlike,” says Harrington.
He further gives the following reasons.Listening for the emphasis words given in a sentence can be a good trick for spotting computergenerated speech.This is because humans use emphasis to give a sentence more meaning.Intonation—the rise and fall of the voice in speaking across a sentence—can also change the same words from being a statement into a question.Phrasing is also an important factor.The way a sentence is broken up can also change its meaning.Together these elements are famous as sentencelevel prosody (韵律学).
There are also moves to make deepfake detection software more readily available to consumers.But in the unavoidable race between AI generation and AI detection, we may find new value in something we have lost in our increasingly virtually connected world—physical interaction.Perhaps in the search to find out if you are speaking to a human, the solution is simple—spending more time meeting in person.
[语篇解读] 这是一篇说明文。主要介绍人工智能语音技术的发展,探讨人类声音与AI语音的区别,以及分辨AI语音的方法和建议。
9.What does the underlined word “imitate” in paragraph 2 mean?
A.Distinguish. B.Adjust.
C.Raise. D.Copy.
解析 词义猜测题。根据第二段中画线词所在句“It is now even possible to use AIpowered speech cloning tools to imitate the voices of real humans.”以及下文“It raises an interesting question:Is there anything unique about the human voice to help us distinguish it from robospeech?”可知,“speech cloning tools”的功能是模仿、复制真人声音,因此“imitate”意为“模仿,复制”。故选D。
答案 D
10.What does Harrington think of human speech?
A.It is poor.
B.It is expressive.
C.It is very computerlike.
D.It is made up of two elements
解析 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“This is because humans use emphasis to give a sentence more meaning...The way a sentence is broken up can also change its meaning.”可知,哈林顿认为人类语言能通过强调、语调、措辞等传递丰富含义,具有很强的表达性。故选B。
答案 B
11.How can people tell AIpowered speech from human voice according to Harrington?
A.By asking questions.
B.By analyzing speech contents.
C.By identifying rhythm patterns.
D.By changing sentence structures.
解析 细节理解题。根据第四段可知,哈林顿认为人们可以通过识别语音中的韵律模式,即强调、语调、措辞等构成的韵律,来区分AI语音和人类声音。故选C。
答案 C
12.What does the author propose doing in the last paragraph?
A.Avoiding physical interaction.
B.Interacting in the virtual world.

Ⅱ.七选五
(2025·四川成都联考)To boost your digital wellness, here are some tips to help you find balance in the digital age.
Reduce online interruption
If you're working on a task and you stop to look at your phone, it takes just two seconds to read a text message—but it may make you twice as likely to make an error on what you're doing.Worse yet, it takes you extra time to get back into the flow of your previous task. 13 .
Build an orderly environment
Having organized, comfortable space—both physical and digital—is important to our mental and physical health.Chaos in your home or work environment invites distraction into your life. 14 .Establish some digital boundaries that work for you and clearly communicate them to family members and work contacts.
15 .
Whether a certain technology enhances or harms our life is often dependent on how we use it.The temptation to endlessly scroll on social media can be high, especially when your brainpower is low.In the morning, take a few minutes to write down first things that you need to complete for the day and plans. 16 , and use your screentime settings to hold yourself to your limits on the Internet.
Prioritize meaningful relationships
17 , particularly when some online contacts may turn out either shallow or insincere.Rather than focusing on the quantity of relationships, concentrate on the quality of your connections online.Unfollow irrelevant people or groups who are not adding value to your life.
A.Depend on social media
B.Regulate daily online time
C.To proactively set yourself up for better management, take action
D.Consider including an intention for how long you want to be online
E.Social media can be the source of much anxiety and social comparison
F.Make efforts to contribute to a positive group in your community nearby
G.So turn off unnecessary notifications to lower distractions and enhance your focus
[语篇解读] 这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了在数字时代改善数字健康的技巧。
