I have been looking forward to outdoor fun for a long time. 36 , I was really excited when Aunt Jen invited us to her yearly spring farm party. I decided to make the day special, so I baked cupcakes for the party and decorated them to look like soft sheep by using some 37 . “Yummy!” My sister Indi said with a naughty laugh, quietly and quickly 38 a candy. “That’s enough, Indi! I need those for my sheep!” “Do real sheep eat these?” “They’re just for making the cupcakes look cute!” I 39 too. Soon, Indi and my brother Tex joined in. They added so many candies that their cupcakes looked more like strange animals than my sheep. “Time to go now,” Dad announced (宣布). But things didn’t go 40 as usual. First, Tex couldn’t find his shoes. Then Mom realized she’d 41 her wallet at home. Halfway to Aunt Jen’s, Indi suddenly needed a bathroom. We had to take a long way to find one. Dad then 42 a new back road, but it only led us farther away. As we were in the middle of nowhere, our car started making a strange noise and 43 . “Help won’t come for at least an hour,” Mom said, sounding 44 . “Now we’ll 45 the whole party!” Tex complained (抱怨). Dad smiled and pointed to a field full of colorful flowers. “Why not have our own picnic here?” At first, we weren’t 46 about it, but as we spread out the blanket (毯子) and started eating, something amazing happened. A huge butterfly gently landed on Indi’s knee. Nearby, two small rabbits jumped across the grass, happily eating. Suddenly, we heard something, and hundreds of birds 47 from the trees, flying into the sky in huge circles above us. “Wow!” I cried. “It’s like 48 !” “Migration (迁徙) season,” Dad said. “These birds travel through California every spring — millions of them!” We never made it to Aunt Jen’s farm, 49 that didn’t matter.

However, a Polish study showed that 70-80% of children naturally say “please” to robots, which made me reflect deeply. When I started thanking our smart speaker, the machine felt nothing, yet I noticed myself becoming more respectful toward my parents and teachers. I realize politeness is not only for machines or strangers. It’s the best way to show care for the people who love me. (Ming, Nanjing) AI lacks (缺乏) emotions. It never feels hurt when you skip “please”. Sometimes, being less polite means being more honest and saying exactly what you mean. Too many polite words can confuse AI. Someone might use AI to correct a paragraph with lots of mistakes. But if they say, “Could you please correct it?”, it might make only tiny changes. In this example, being too polite hides how big the problems are. The AI won’t do what you really want it to. (Cindy, London) ★ Although I often say “please” to AI, I know it makes no difference to the machine — yet it reminds me that politeness reflects my own values, not the listener’s identity (身份). However, we should never force everyone to follow this practice, nor treat AI as a human. It remains a tool. Be polite if it helps you grow. Be direct if efficiency matters. Just never lose yourself in technology. (Tim, Hong Kong) 51. In which part of an online newspaper would you most likely find this material? A. YOUR VOICES B. SCIENCE NEWS C. FUTURE TALK D. DAILY LIFE 52. What does Ming’s story mainly tell us? A. We must speak politely to AI. B. AI changes people’s daily life. C. Politeness to tech may help shape us. D. AI needs our respect just like humans. 53. Cindy uses the example of correcting a paragraph to show that _________. A. polite words help AI work better B. AI is not smart enough for some tasks C. AI can help with writing articles D. too much politeness hides real problems 54. Tim expresses his idea in ★ . Which sentence can be put here? A. I hold a balanced view. B. We should be polite to AI. C. We should make good use of AI. D. There’s no need to be polite to AI. 55. Which BIG QUESTION do Ming, Cindy and Tim answer? A. How do we talk with AI politely? B. Why does AI become popular today? C. Should people be polite to AI? D. How does AI change our life? B Turning soil (翻土), pulling grass, and picking cabbages sound like hard work for middle and high school students. And at first it is, says Abby Jaramillo, who with another teacher set up Urban Sprouts, a school garden program in four poor schools. The program wants to help students improve science skills, care more about the environment and develop healthy eating habits. Jaramillo’s students live in neighborhoods where fresh food and green space are hard to find. There are lots of fast-food restaurants nearby. “Students always come to school with many snacks and soft drinks,” she says: “They come to us thinking vegetables are awful, dirty soil is awful and insects are awful.” Some students are scared of insects and hate dirty soil at first, but most want to try something new. Urban Sprouts’ classes, in two middle schools and two high schools, include colorful activities like testing soil, studying plants, and working in the garden. Several times a year, students cook the vegetables they grow, and sometimes they also make salads for their schools. It turns out that students eat more vegetables after taking the classes. “Some students say they talk with their parents at home, and their families start to eat healthily as well,” Jaramillo says. She adds that the program also brings many other good changes. Some students get so interested in gardening that they take seeds home to start their own vegetable gardens. Also, garden work can make some special students who have problems controlling their feelings calm down. “They work outdoors,” she says, “and they feel successful.” 56. What do we know about Abby Jaramillo? A. She grew up in a poor family. B. She helped create Urban Sprouts. C. She used to be a gardener. D. She runs a fast-food restaurant. 57. What problem did Jaramillo face at the start of the program? A. Some students disliked garden work. B. Some students’ parents didn’t trust her. C. Students had little time for her classes. D. There was no space for school garden. 58. The activities in Urban Sprouts’ classes are mainly ______. A. outdoor games B. farm work C. hands-on practice D. group work 59. What are the last two paragraphs mainly about? A. Students’ love for gardening. B. Nice results of the program. C. Changes in students’ hobbies. D. Improvements in lifestyle. 60. What would be the BEST title for this article? A. More Than a Garden B. Changing Eating Habits C. Experiencing Country Life D. How to Start a School Garden C Imagine a piece of ice at-4℃. You raise the temperature to-3℃, then-2℃, yet nothing changes. Even at-1℃, it is still ice. All your efforts seem useless. Only at 0℃ does it finally begin to melt (融化). This is just like when you keep trying for weeks but see no progress. This experience is so common that it even has a name — the Ice Cube Theory (冰块理论), from Atomic Habits by James Clear. So where does the heat go before melting begins? Those early efforts aren’t wasted — they are building up. This time of unseen progress is called the Plateau of Latent Potential (潜力高原期), a time when your hard work stays as stored energy, waiting to reach a certain point. We can see this everywhere. Think about how bamboo grows. It spends its first five years building large root (根) systems under the ground, and shoots 90 feet into the air in just six weeks. In our minds, we often expect fast progress, but real growth often appears later than we expect. When our hopes don’t match the real results, we may feel disappointed and doubt ourselves. Many of us give up just before our breakthrough (突破). However, once we pass the key point, we can get a breakthrough, and big changes may come almost overnight. To reach that moment, you need more than just effort. You also need to change your way of thinking. Trust the process, focus on your daily plans and celebrate small wins. Above all, keep trying even if you don’t see results. Next time you feel no progress, remember the ice cube: your breakthrough may be just one degree away. 61. Which picture best describes “the Ice Cube Theory”? A. B. C. D. 62. Which sentence uses “build up” with the same meaning as the underlined phrase? build up v. ① 逐步建立/发展，壮大 ② 逐步增强 ③ 积累 ④ 建造 A. The workers are building up a new hotel. B. My life experience builds up day by day. C. Leo’s business has built up over the years. D. Luna keeps on running to build up health. 63. Why does the writer mention bamboo in Paragraph 2? A. To compare different plants. B. To encourage short-time efforts. C. To describe bamboo growth. D. To explain hidden progress. 64. According to the writer, many people fail to get breakthroughs because ______. A. they don’t work hard. B. they doubt their potential. C. they give up too early. D. troubles like to follow them. 65. Which of the following best matches the main idea of the passage? A. Rome was not built in a day. B. Failure is the mother of success. C. Time waits for no man. D. Every coin has its two sides. 第II卷（非选择题 共40分） 五、用所给词的正确形式填空（共5小题，每小题1分，满分5分） （注意：可能不止填写一个词。） My favourite book is The Old Man and the Sea by the American 66 (write) Ernest Hemingway.
