B Recently, new AI tools like ChatGPT and DeepSeek have become very popular. They can do many things, like telling stories and answering questions. Some people started to wonder: Is reading still necessary now that AI can do everything for us? A math teacher from Wuhan gave a smart answer. “Reading isn’t just about facts. It’s about growing smarter along the way. Just like Tang Sanzang in the novel Journey to the West, what made him wise wasn’t the Buddhist books he got, but the journey he took to get them.” DeepSeek also expressed the view, “Reading helps us think clearly and wisely. We don’t say no to AI. We read to stay smart in the age of AI.” Meng Man, a history teacher from Minzu University of China, said reading is very important for young people. She shared an old saying, “Read ten thousand books, and travel ten thousand miles.” She believes reading is like opening a door to the world. Through books, we can learn about different people, places, and ideas. This helps us understand the world much better. Meng Man also said that it’s OK if we can’t remember everything we read. It’s just like eating meals. We don’t remember every meal, but all those meals help us grow. Reading helps our minds grow too. Huang Zhijian, a leader in publishing, wants everyone to spend less time on screens and more time with books to learn, think, and grow. Wu Qin, another expert, encourages young people to read the classics. “Classic works, whether ancient or modern, Chinese or foreign, open windows for the young,” he said. Even with smart AI, reading is still .... Let’s keep turning pages — for the joy, understanding, and growth that only reading brings. ( ) 26. What does the math teacher think makes Tang Sanzang wise? A. The books he got. B. The facts in the books. C. The helpers around him. D. The journey to get the books. ( ) 27. What does Meng Man want to say by the old saying? A. Young people should travel a lot. B. Traveling helps us enjoy life more. C. Reading is as difficult as traveling. D. Reading helps us know about the world. ( ) 28. What does the writer mean by “every meal”? A. Everything we read. B. Every travel we have. C. Necessary things in life. D. Important things in books. ( ) 29. Which is probably the missing word in the sentence “Even with smart AI, reading is still ...”? A. Popular. B. Important. C. Interesting. D. Possible. ( ) 30. What is the proper title for the text? A. How to Make Reading Easier? B. What Can AI Help People Do? C. Why Read When AI Can Do It All? D. Why Do AI Tools Become Popular? C ①Some people say Classic of Mountains and Seas is just a book of myths (神话). It talks about strange creatures, like a bird with three legs and a horse with a human face. These sound too odd (古怪的) to be real, so many think they’re made-up stories to entertain or teach lessons. ②But others believe it has historical roots. The book describes mountains, rivers, and tribes (部落) in detail. Some places it mentions, like the Yellow River, still exist today. This makes people wonder if the writers recorded what they saw, even if they exaggerated (夸张) a little. ③Interesting links to modern discoveries make the argument popular. Take the Sanxingdui as an example: a bronze (青铜) tree with nine branches (树枝) was unearthed, which matches a tree mentioned in Classic of Mountains and Seas. Such similarities make us question if the book holds memories of lost prehistoric cultures. ④It’s also possible that time changes how we see it. Long ago, people explained unknown things with stories. A rare (罕见的) animal might become a “monster” (妖怪) in their words. So what feels like myth now could have been their way of writing history. ⑤Maybe we don’t need to choose. Classic of Mountains and Seas could be both: a collection of ancient stories that also holds clues to the past. It shows how people thought and lived, which is a kind of history too. ⑥In the end, whether myth or history, it matters because it connects us to our roots—especially as new finds like Sanxingdui build a bridge between its pages and reality. ( ) 31. What do we know about Classic of Mountains and Seas according to the text? A. The book was written 100 years ago. B. Some places in the book still exist today. C. Everyone thinks Classic of Mountains and Seas is just myths. D. Sanxingdui’s bronze tree shows things in it are real. ( ) 32. Why is Sanxingdui mentioned in the text? A. To prove the book is completely historical. B. To say the book was written by ancient scientists. C. To show a modern discovery that links to the book. D. To explain what the creatures in the book look like. ( ) 33. Which of the following best shows the author’s opinion? A. The book is just myths. B. It’s not worth reading today. C. The book is 100% historical fact. D. It could be both myth and history. ( ) 34. If we divide the text into the three parts below, which is the best? Part 1. Presenting different views. Part 2. Analyzing reasons and connections to reality. Part 3. Stating the author’s opinion and conclusion. A. ①/②③④⑤/⑥ B. ①②/③④/⑤⑥ C. ①②③/④⑤/⑥ D. ①②/③/④⑤⑥ ( ) 35. Which is the best title for the text? A. Sanxingdui: A Lost Civilization B. Classic of Mountains and Seas: Myth or History? C. How Ancient Books Were Written D. Strange Creatures in Old Stories 四、任务型阅读(共5小题，每小题2分，共10分) Chinese and English are very different. They grew in their own ways, with different writing systems (系统) and pronunciation rules. But here’s a fact: Both are the most widely spoken languages. Chinese started around 1,000 BC. It has many different forms, and Putonghua is the most widely used one. English started in Britain around 450 AD. It came from mixing local languages, Old German, Latin and other European languages. That’s why English words often sound easy to understand for people who speak other European languages. Chinese uses characters (汉字). Each character stands for a sound, a word or an idea. Learning to read Chinese needs a good memory. Writing it needs much practice. You have to learn each character’s shape, meaning and pronunciation one by one. English uses letters. When you put letters together, you get a word. Each letter or a group of letters has its own sound, like “ph” sounds like “f”. Once you learn the pronunciation rules of the words or groups of letters, you can usually read new words correctly. Tones (声调) also work differently. Chinese has four tones, and each tone changes a character’s meaning. For example, the sound “tang” can mean soup (tāng), sugar (táng), to lie down (tǎng), or very hot (tàng)—all depending on the tone. In English, the tone only shows stress (重音) or the speaker’s feeling. Learning them is valuable. Besides, it can help us understand different cultures and open up a new world. 36. Why can people who speak other European languages understand English words easily? _____________________________________________ 37. What does learning to read and write Chinese need? _____________________________________________ 38. How can you usually read new English words correctly? _____________________________________________ 39. What does the tone in English show? _____________________________________________ 40. What language do you prefer, Chinese or English? Why? _____________________________________________ 五、词语运用(共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) A)用所给词的适当形式填空 41.We need a (practice) way to solve the problem. 42.Good (transport) makes trade much faster. 43.More people do (business) on the Internet. 44.She (water) the vegetables in the farmland. 45.Her (touch) words warmed everyone’s heart. B)根据汉语意思，完成下列句子。 46.我把这首诗背熟了。 I learn this poem . 47.许多老人依旧喜欢现金付款。 Many old people still like to . 48.我们应当远离不良网游。 We should bad online games. 49.我离开时，请帮我照看一下包。 Please my bag while I’m away. 50.尽力把握你得到的每一次机会。 Try to every chance you get. 六、补全对话(共5小题，每小题2分，共10分) A: Hi, Helen! 51. _______________?
