Morning: A Smart Start Alex's morning clock wakes him up and tells him about the weather. At breakfast, a smart table shows what food is good for him, helping him choose healthy food. In Class: Learning Becomes Fun and Exciting In history class, Alex puts on special glasses and “stands” by an old building in Egypt(埃及)! He looks around and even “touches” the stones(石头), making history feel real. In science class, a 3D model(模型) of the sun and planets appears in the classroom. Alex can walk around it to see how planets move. After School: Personalized Practice Homework has also changed. A computer knows what Alex finds easy or hard. It gives him practice questions that are just right for him. If he needs help, an online helper is always there to explain things in a new way. Will school be more fun in the future? For Alex, yes.

According to the scientists, one difference is that in many places it's going to be much hotter and it's going to rain less. Some countries in Africa are going to become very dry all year round, and people can hardly find food and water. In Southern Europe and the United States, it's going to be more difficult for plants to grow. People there are also going to have problems finding food in the future. No one knows how much warmer it is going to be, but scientists say that the change is going to be at least 2 . They say that the ice in the Arctic(北极) is going to melt in the next years and a lot of animals there are going to die. There is also going to be more water in the sea, so cities near the sea are going to disappear. Another difference is that there are going to be more hurricanes and typhoons(飓风和台风).Scientists say they are going to happen all over the world, and many people are going to lose their homes.

C It's . I'm sitting in my room, staring(盯着看) at the TV screen for a long time. A soft sound breaks the silence. It's a new message from Mia, my best friend since childhood. “Hey, have you seen the news? Sea level(海平面) is rising faster than we expected. My family is moving north next week.” I take a deep breath and type back,“Yeah, we're moving too.” A new pop-up(弹出式窗口)suddenly appears on the screen. It's about the people who have to move away from seaside cities. People are leaving for higher ground. A program shows that the sea level is rising and that the sea will cover seaside cities. It's hard to believe that this is the world we live in now. Last weekend, my parents sat me down for a serious talk. We were going to leave our city and move north, away from the seaside. I knew we had to keep living, but leaving everything behind was heartbreaking. But there was something else my dad said. He had a plan for our new home.“We can't just live,”he told me.“We have to become strong and successful. We'll build new neighborhoods that are good for the earth and won't put it in danger.” As we pack our bags, another message comes in from Mia. Her family are also planning how to build their new home. They'll plant trees with the people who live there. That gives me hope.Maybe all the families moving north will build a new future, different from the past. The next few years will be hard, but I'm ready for the challenges. Together, we'll make the future better. 11.What is the relationship between Mia and the writer? A. Sisters. B. Friends. C. Teacher and student. D.

To ask families to help and love each other. 15.Which words can best describe the writer's family? A. Serious and polite. B. Brave and honest. C. Quiet and friendly. D. Kind and helpful. D Animals are people's good friends. Many people hope to talk with their pets in everyday life. This may sound too good to be true, but now scientists are using AI to help make this dream come true. Karen Bakker, a teacher at the University of British Columbia in Canada, believes that AI will bring humans closer to the world of animals and plants in the future.“AI helps humans talk with bats and bees,” Bakker said. How does it work? When bats talk with each other, scientists first record their sounds and input(输入) them into a computer. Then, they use AI to find out what the bats say and try to speak back to them. Humans cannot hear these sounds with their own ears, but AI makes it possible for us to understand and “speak” back to the bats by training a computer to “speak” like a bat. Scientists also found an interesting fact: When baby bats start to learn to “speak”, mother bats often lower (降低) their voices. However, human mothers often raise(提高) their voices during this time. As for bees, scientists use a computer to both listen to and watch them in order to study their language. Scientists now know how bees send messages like “stop”. They even make a robot bee that can talk with other bees. Bakker thinks trying to talk with animals in their languages is better than teaching them to use our sign language. And of course, AI plays an important part along the way. 16.What does the underlined word “This” refer to? A. Keeping pets. B. Talking with pets. C. Using AI to help animals. D. Making friends with animals. 17.What do we know about mother bats? A. They never talk with their babies. B. They are good at looking after babies. C. They act the same way as human mothers do. D. They often talk to their babies in a lower voice. 18.What does the third paragraph mainly talk about? A. How bats talk to each other. B. How people use AI to talk with bats. C. Why people hope to talk with bats. D. Why humans can't talk with their pets. 19.What may Bakker agree with? A. It is impossible for humans to talk to bats. B. AI can do nothing to help humans talk with animals. C. We should teach animals to use the sign language. D. It's a good idea to talk with animals in their languages. 20.Why does the writer write the passage? A. To advise us to use AI to talk with bees and bats. B. To tell us an interesting talk between bees and bats. C. To show us the scientists' care for the bees and bats. D. To show us how scientists use AI to talk with bees and bats. 二、补全对话(5小题,共10分) A:Hi,Chen Fei.Long time no see. B:Long time no see.What are you doing now?

Life on Mars is even harder than I imagined. But I don't mind the (26) . I'm the first member of my family and the first Chinese to live on Mars! You're (27) thinking why I live on Mars. Now let me explain. My story began when the Mars Colony team (28) my school. I was ten years old and I was ready to give a speech(演讲)about Mars to the special (29) . I had spent weeks preparing, excited to share my love for space. Everyone knows that Mars is cold and far from the sun, making it seem (30) to live there. However, I had a different opinion. I loved watching videos about the Mars Colony team and (31) being part of the first human community there. They wanted people with creativity to (32) cool homes and find ways to live on Mars. After my speech, the special guests came over and said,“We'd like to (33) you to join the colony when you're old enough, if it's OK with your parents.” I agreed right away, (34) I worried about telling my parents. They were going to miss me a lot! “Liu Tao! Wake up! You'll be (35) !”I open my eyes, realizing the red light is just the sun. But today is the day the Mars Colony team comes to school.

To work out (36) problem, a new care centre for older people in Tianjin shows us what China's future elderly care (37) (be) like. It uses AI and the community together to give older people (38) (healthy) and happier lives. The centre uses technology to change older (39) (people) daily routines. For example, they rest on smart beds that can monitor the heart rate(监测心率). This can make (40) (prediction) about health risks and help with medical care. Wu,the (41) (direct) of the centre, says robots are another solution. A robot named Xiaoxin helps the older people with daily (42) (task). It can order meals (43) plan community activities as long as the older people call out “Xiaoxin”. There's also “One-Stop Butler(管家) Service”. Grandma Cai is seriously sick, making it hard for her to care for herself. (44) the butler's help, she even plays her favourite old songs. “Smart tools reduce the need for older people (45) (depend) on others,”Wu adds.“They also help workers save time, making care better than before.” 五、任务型阅读(5小题,共10分) AI in Daily Life Artificial intelligence(AI) is now part of our daily lives. Many people use AI tools like voice assistants(e.g. Siri or Xiaoyi) to set alarms, play music, or control home devices. In hospitals, AI helps doctors check medical information quickly. Some schools even use AI robots to teach students languages or maths. However, people have different opinions about AI. Supporters say AI makes life easier. For example, cars that drive themselves could reduce traffic accidents caused by human mistakes. AI also does boring jobs like factory work so humans can focus on creative work. Also, AI can work 24 hours a day, such as answering customers' questions online. Critics worry about AI's problems. They think robots might take jobs like cashiers or drivers, leading to people losing jobs. Others fear AI could become too powerful and make decisions without humans. Privacy(隐私) is another worry-AI collects personal data, which might be stolen or used in wrong ways. What will the future of AI look like? Only time will tell. 46.What can AI help doctors do in hospitals? _ 47.What does AI do instead of humans in factories? _ 48.What example of AI working 24 hours a day does the passage give? _ 49.How many worries do critics have about AI in Paragraph 3? 50.Do you think AI will make our lives better or worse? Why? 六、书面表达(1小题,共20分) 在科技日新月异的今天,我们的生活时刻发生着变化。若干年后,我们的生活将会是什么样子呢?你校团委计划下周举办以“Life in the future”为题的演讲比赛,假如你是李华,你将代表你班参赛,请你根据要求,结合自身实际,用英语写一篇演讲稿。 Life in the future Weather warm all year round Work more robots;robots do lots of work Traffic a plane in every family 要求: (1)文中须包括所给内容提示,可适当发挥; (2)文中不得出现考生的真实姓名和学校名称; (3)词数80左右(开头已给出,不计入总词数)。 Life in the future What will life be like in the future? 答案 一、1~5.A、C、D、B、D 6~10.B、A、D、D、A 11~15.B、D、B、C、D 16~20.B、D、B、D、D 二、21~25.E、G、A、F、C 三、26~35.C、D、B、A、D、B、C、A、B、D 四、36.the 37.will be 38.healthier 39.people's 40.predictions 41.director 42.tasks 43.or/and 44.With 45.to depend 五、46.AI can help doctors check medical information quickly. 47.Boring jobs. 48.Answering customers' questions online. 49.Three./. 50.I think AI will make our lives better.
