Problems
Advice
1. I often feel stressed about my studies. My parents expect me to get good grades, but I'm afraid I'll let them down. What should I do?
2. I have a group project at school, but one member never does his part. The rest of us have to do extra work. How can I deal with this? 3. My friend often makes fun of me for being shy. He says I should talk more in class. I feel hurt but don't want to lose our friendship. What can I do? 4. I want to be more confident, but every time I speak in front of the class, my voice shakes and I forget what to say. Any advice?
5. I always feel negative when things go wrong. How can I become a more positive person?
A. Start a small "gratitude journal" before bed. Write down three good things that happened each day. This helps train your brain to notice the positive side of life, even on difficult days.
B. You don't have to be perfect. Talk to your parents honestly about your feelings. They love you and will understand. Then break your study goals into small steps so they feel more achievable.
C. You could offer to help him with his part, but set a clear deadline. If he still doesn't contribute, talk to your teacher together. Teamwork means everyone does their fair share.

B. Multiple Choice(12分)
Read the passage and choose the best answer.
In a small town in England, there lived a teenager named Tom. He was not good at sports and often felt weak compared to his classmates. His greatest fear was the annual school running race because he always came last. Every year, his classmates would laugh at him, and Tom felt more and more disappointed.
One day, Tom's grandfather, a wise old man, saw him crying in the garden. "Why do you let their words hurt you?" the grandfather asked. "Running is not about beating others. It's about beating yourself. Instead of focusing on others, focus on your own progress."
Tom thought about his grandfather's words for a long time. He decided to train for the next race. Every morning, he got up at 5 a.m. and ran around the park. At first, he could only run for five minutes without stopping. But he kept going. After three months, he could run for thirty minutes. After six months, he could run for an hour.
On the day of the race, Tom still didn't win. But this time, he finished in the middle of the group — not first, but not last either. More importantly, he didn't feel disappointed. He felt proud because he had improved a lot. His classmates stopped laughing and started respecting him.
Tom learned an important lesson that day: success is not about being better than others. It's about being better than you were yesterday. As his grandfather said, "The only person you should compete with is yourself."

D. Short Answer Questions(12分)
Read the passage and answer the questions.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming more and more important in our daily lives. From smartphones to self-driving cars, AI is changing the way we live, work, and learn. But how exactly does AI work, and what does it mean for our future?
AI stands for Artificial Intelligence. It is the ability of machines to think and learn like humans. Scientists have been working on AI for many years, but it has developed very quickly in the last ten years. Today, AI can do many things that were once thought impossible. For example, AI can translate languages, recognize faces, play chess, and even write poems.
However, many people are worried about AI. They fear that machines might take away jobs from humans. Some scientists believe that AI could be dangerous if it is not controlled properly. On the other hand, supporters of AI say that it can help us solve many problems, such as climate change and disease. They believe that AI is a tool, not a threat.
In China, AI is being used in many areas. In schools, AI helps teachers design better lessons. In hospitals, AI helps doctors diagnose diseases more accurately. In transportation, AI makes traffic systems more efficient.
So what should we do? The answer is simple: we should learn to work with AI, not against it. By developing our own skills and creativity, we can make sure that AI serves us, not the other way around.
Answer the following questions:
1. Is AI changing the way we live, work, and learn?

2. What can AI do according to the passage?

3. When did AI develop very quickly?

参考范文:
Dear Li Ming,
I'm writing to share something important with you. Last month, I failed my math exam and felt really disappointed. I used to be good at math, but this time I got the worst grade in my class. I was so worried that I didn't know what to do.
However, I remembered what our teacher said about having a strong mind. Instead of giving up, I decided to face this difficulty. I asked my teacher for advice and started to practise every day. I also made a study plan and focused on my weak points.
Now I'm doing much better in math. I learned that failure is not the end — it's a new beginning. Every disappointment brings a new chance. I hope you can also stay strong when facing difficulties.
Yours sincerely,
Zhang Wei
