That is a lot of water! Most of this water is used for showering, flushing the toilet, washing clothes and dishes, and drinking. But there are many places in the world where people do not have enough clean water. In some African countries, people walk for hours every day just to get a small bucket of water. This water is often dirty and causes diseases. Scientists are working on ways to save water. One idea is to collect rainwater. Rainwater can be used for watering plants and washing cars. Another idea is to clean and reuse wastewater from factories and homes. This is called water recycling. As students, we can also help save water. Turn off the tap while brushing your teeth. Fix dripping taps quickly. Take shorter showers. Every drop counts! Let’s work together to protect our water resources for the future. 1．How much water does an average person use every day?

Social media platforms (平台) allow users to share their thoughts, pictures, and videos with others anytime and anywhere. They are so popular. Every day, a large number of people use social media for both work and personal life. ②Social media has many good points. It helps people not only stay connected to their loved ones, but also make new friends. Sam is in the eighth grade. He said,“My best friend moved to another city a year ago, because his father got a new job as a doctor. But thanks to social media, we’re still able to stay in touch every day. I can see what he is doing and share fun moments with him. Social media also lets me meet new people. Recently, I’ve made a friend from the UK, and we’ve learnt something about each other’s culture.” ③However, there are also some downsides. Sometimes, people compare their lives to the perfect-looking lives in posts and feel sad about their own lives. This can lead to low self-esteem and even depression (抑郁). What’s more, spending too much time on social media can make people less active in real life. They might miss out on playing outside or talking to people face-to-face. ④In short, social media can be a great tool if we use it in the right way. It can help us stay connected and learn new things, but we need to be careful not to let it control our lives. 1．What does the underlined word “They” in paragraph 1 refer to? A．The great thoughts.

During childhood, asking questions such as “Why is the sky blue?” or “How do birds fly?” shows a natural desire to explore the world. This curiosity drives learning and shapes their development in amazing ways. First, curiosity improves learning. When children are curious, their brains become active in searching for answers. For example, a child who wonders how plants grow might read books, watch videos, or even plant seeds to observe the process. This hands-on experience helps them remember information better and builds critical thinking skills. Second, curiosity encourages creativity. Curious kids often try new activities or solve problems in unique ways. Imagine a child experimenting with building blocks: they might fail many times, but each attempt teaches them something new. Over time, they learn to think outside the box and develop creative solutions. Also, curiosity helps children face challenges. Life is full of unknowns, but curious minds see challenges as adventures. Students struggling with math might ask questions, seek help, and practice until they succeed. This builds confidence and resilience. To support children’s growth, parents and teachers should encourage questions, provide learning resources, and let them explore safely. Remember, curiosity is not just about finding answers—it’s about enjoying the journey of discovery. By nurturing curiosity, we help kids become lifelong learners and creative thinkers. In short, curiosity lights the path of growth. Let’s protect this precious gift in every child! 1．What is curiosity compared to in the article? A．A treasure map. B．A dark night. C．A magic key. D．A mystery box. 2．Which question does the article mention as an example of children’s curiosity? A．How do birds fly? B．Why do animals have different colors? C．What causes seasons to change? D．When do stars appear? 3．What skill does a child develop by planting seeds to observe plant growth? A．Artistic talent. B．Critical thinking. C．Musical ability. D．Physical strength. 4．How does curiosity help children face challenges according to the article? A．By making them avoid difficulties. B．By teaching them to see challenges as adventures. C．By letting others solve problems for them. D．By memorizing answers quickly. 5．What should parents do to support children’s curiosity? A．Give them more homework. B．Limit their exploration. C．Always give direct answers. D．Encourage questions and provide resources. 四、请通读下面短文，掌握其大意，从每小题所给的选项中选出一个最佳答案。 Digital technology is changing our lives in many good ways.

Well, I did that when I got into a taxi and slammed (砰地关上) the door. I heard a loud crack. The crack was the sound of my phone’s screen breaking. The phone had been in the pocket of my jacket and my jacket had gotten caught in the taxi’s door. Besides the sound of breaking glass, the other sound I heard was my own voice saying, “Oh, no! What have I done?” But I couldn’t really get angry. The death of my phone was less of a tragedy (悲剧) than a comedy since it was my clumsiness that had killed it. So, for the next day, I had to live without a phone until I was able to buy a new one: no calls, no texts, no social media. And what I discovered was that I really didn’t miss making phone calls, or getting text messages, or reading social media posts. It was actually relaxing. For that whole day, I was able to stop living in a “virtual” world and start living in the “real” world. Smartphones have changed the way we live our lives. They are sources of communication, information and entertainment. All of these things are good, but too much of these things (too much of anything, really) can also be bad. There is a chemical in our brain called dopamine (多巴胺). Activities like scrolling through videos or posts cause our brains to release this chemical. It gives us pleasure. Actually, some of us have even become addicted (沉迷) to dopamine, the “happy hormone (荷尔蒙)”. This is why we may feel upset or anxious when we can’t use them. In order to treat this increasingly common addiction, some places are experimenting with the idea of a “digital detox*”. For example, people in the Indian village of Vadgaon are being forced to turn off their phones and TVs from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. every night. Smartphones are great, but you should be smart about using them. Put them away in your pocket for a while and enjoy the real world… but you should still be careful about getting into taxis. *digital detox：数码排毒，指选择到没有无线网络的地方度假。 1．What happened when the author got into the taxi? A．Someone stole his phone. B．His phone fell on the ground. C．He broke the screen of his phone. D．He accidentally broke the door of the taxi. 2．The author wasn’t angry about the death of his phone because ________. A．the phone was not very expensive B．he himself had caused it to happen C．he could stop living in a virtual world D．he had long wanted to buy a new phone 3．When the author lived without a phone the next day, he felt ________. A．angry B．frightened C．relaxed D．upset 4．According to the article, our brains release dopamine when ________. A．we feel worried B．we are not able to use our phones C．we are making calls on our phones D．we read one social media post after another 5．In Vadgaon, India, people have to live without their phones or TVs for ________ every day. A．half an hour B．an hour C．one and a half hours D．two hours 6．According to the author, how can we be smart about using our smartphones? A．By using the latest models. B．By turning them off at night. C．By not using them all the time. D．By being careful not to break them. 三、请通读下面短文，掌握其大意，从每小题所给的选项中选出一个最佳答案。 With the rapid development of technology, collecting online content is no longer limited by time or space.

This includes the water for growing food, producing clothes and generating (产生) electricity. Everything we use “drinks” some water before it reaches us. It’s important to understand our water footprint because water is a very precious resource—one we must use wisely. There are three main types of water footprints: green, blue, and grey. The green water footprint refers to the rainwater used to grow crops. For example, wheat and rice depend on rainwater to grow. The blue water footprint is the fresh water taken from rivers, lakes or underground sources for production. This includes the water used in factories or to irrigate (灌溉) crops. The grey water footprint is the water needed to clean up pollution. When factories release waste, it often takes a lot of water to clean up the mess. To see how much water we actually use, let’s look at some examples. Producing just one kilogram of beef takes about 15,000 liters of water. This water is used to grow food for the cows and to keep them healthy. By comparison, producing one kilogram of rice requires about 2,500 liters of water. This shows that different foods and products need different amounts of water. We can reduce our water footprint by saving water in our daily lives. Simple actions like turning off the tap while brushing your teeth, using less water when washing dishes and fixing leaks can all go a long way. Eating less meat can also help because producing meat uses a lot of water. Another smart move is to choose products that use less water to make. By understanding our water footprint and making thoughtful choices, we can help protect this important resource for the future. 1．By writing this article, the author mainly wanted to ________. A．show people how to reduce water pollution B．discuss the importance of saving water in daily life C．explain the idea of water footprint and how to reduce it D．compare the amount of water used in different products 2．The “grey water footprint” is the water used for ________. A．growing crops B．drinking and cooking C．cleaning up pollution D．washing clothes at home 3．How much water is needed to produce one kilogram of beef? A．2,500 liters. B．15,000 liters. C．5,000 liters. D．1,000 liters. 4．The examples of beef and rice are given to show that ________. A．people should stop eating beef B．beef is more delicious than rice C．farming cows is easier than growing rice D．different products need different amounts of water 5．Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a way to reduce our water footprint? A．Fixing leaks. B．Eating less meat. C．Taking shorter showers. D．Turning off the tap while brushing teeth. 五、请通读下面短文，掌握其大意，从每小题所给的选项中选出一个最佳答案。 The Internet has become an important part of our daily life. Many people use it for work, study and entertainment. But do you know how the Internet was invented? The Internet was first developed in the 1960s by the US Department of Defense. At that time, it was called ARPANET. It was designed to connect computers at different universities and research centers. The goal was to share information and keep communication possible even if part of the network was destroyed. In the 1970s, scientists developed a way to send data between different networks. This was called TCP/IP. It became the standard for how data is sent over the Internet. In the 1990s, the World Wide Web was invented by Tim Berners-Lee. This made it easier for people to use the Internet. They could use browsers to view web pages with pictures and text. Today, the Internet connects billions of devices around the world. We can do almost anything online—shop, study, work, communicate and more. The Internet has changed the way we live and work. 1．When was the Internet first developed? A．In the 1950s. B．In the 1960s. C．In the 1970s.

Around the world, people are developing creative methods to save water in homes, farms, and cities. One interesting innovation is “smart showers”. These showers have sensors that turn off the water when you step away, saving up to 50% of water used in a normal shower. Another invention is “greywater recycling systems”, which reuse water from sinks and washing machines to flush toilets or water gardens. Farmers are also using new technology to reduce water waste. Drones with infrared (红外线的) cameras can detect which parts of a field need more water, helping farmers water only where necessary. Some places even use “fog nets”—large mesh (网状的) screens that collect water from fog in dry areas. Cities are making changes too. In Singapore, “NEWater” is purified wastewater that is safe to drink. Meanwhile, some schools teach students to track water use with digital meters, encouraging them to save water every day. Small actions matter too. Fixing leaks, using a bucket instead of a hose to wash cars, and planting drought-resistant plants can all help. If we combine new technology with good habits, we can protect our water for the future. 1．What do “smart showers” do to save water? A．Play music while working. B．Turn off water when not in use. C．Heat water faster. D．Make showers longer. 2．How do drones help farmers save water? A．By watering all crops equally. B．By detecting which areas need water. C．By scaring away birds. D．By planting seeds automatically. 3．What is “greywater recycling”? A．Throwing away dirty water. B．Reusing water from sinks or washing machines for toilets or gardens. C．Drinking seawater. D．Collecting rainwater in barrels. 4．What is special about Singapore’s “NEWater”? A．It comes from melted icebergs. B．It is purified wastewater. C．It is only for washing clothes. D．It tastes like fruit juice. 5．What is one simple way people can save water at home? A．Leaving the tap running while brushing teeth. B．Using a bucket instead of a hose to wash cars.

Have you ever dreamed of using AI to help with your studies? Well, don’t just dream about it. The “AI-powered study rooms” that are popping up all over the country promise to do just that. Once you sign up, you’ll get a tablet (平板电脑) with “AI apps”. These apps will “create personalised study plans” and “tailor exercises based on your progress” to help you learn more effectively. These study rooms also claim (声称) that their services are more affordable (价格合理的) than traditional tutors (家教). The tablet, along with the first month of tutoring, usually costs 5,000 yuan. After that, it’s about 2,000 yuan per month. Don’t these promises sound tempting? But hold your horses! You’d better finish reading this article before asking your parents to pay the money. Many parents who have signed their children up for these “AI-powered study rooms” are far from impressed. The “AI apps” don’t live up to their promises. They just spot mistakes and offer repetitive exercises. On top of that, students basically follow pre-recorded lessons. “These so-called ‘AI-powered study rooms’ are more of a scam than a real display of new technologies,” some parents complain. Don’t feel discouraged, though. Your dream of learning with AI is still alive. There is just no need for you to spend a fortune on a paid “study room” to jump on the AI bandwagon. From Moonshot AI to DeepSeek, many companies offer their AI chatbots for free. You can use them to help with your studies right at home. The key is to learn how to use them wisely. Asking AI to do all the exercises in the school assignments for you simply isn’t the way to go! Instead, you could ask for clearer and more detailed explanations if you’re confused about something in class.

That is a lot of water! Most of this water is used for showering, flushing the toilet, washing clothes and dishes, and drinking. But there are many places in the world where people do not have enough clean water. In some African countries, people walk for hours every day just to get a small bucket of water. This water is often dirty and causes diseases. Scientists are working on ways to save water. One idea is to collect rainwater. Rainwater can be used for watering plants and washing cars. Another idea is to clean and reuse wastewater from factories and homes. This is called water recycling. As students, we can also help save water. Turn off the tap while brushing your teeth. Fix dripping taps quickly. Take shorter showers. Every drop counts! Let’s work together to protect our water resources for the future. 1．How much water does an average person use every day?

Social media platforms (平台) allow users to share their thoughts, pictures, and videos with others anytime and anywhere. They are so popular. Every day, a large number of people use social media for both work and personal life. ②Social media has many good points. It helps people not only stay connected to their loved ones, but also make new friends. Sam is in the eighth grade. He said,“My best friend moved to another city a year ago, because his father got a new job as a doctor. But thanks to social media, we’re still able to stay in touch every day. I can see what he is doing and share fun moments with him. Social media also lets me meet new people. Recently, I’ve made a friend from the UK, and we’ve learnt something about each other’s culture.” ③However, there are also some downsides. Sometimes, people compare their lives to the perfect-looking lives in posts and feel sad about their own lives. This can lead to low self-esteem and even depression (抑郁). What’s more, spending too much time on social media can make people less active in real life. They might miss out on playing outside or talking to people face-to-face. ④In short, social media can be a great tool if we use it in the right way. It can help us stay connected and learn new things, but we need to be careful not to let it control our lives. 1．What does the underlined word “They” in paragraph 1 refer to? A．The great thoughts.

During childhood, asking questions such as “Why is the sky blue?” or “How do birds fly?” shows a natural desire to explore the world. This curiosity drives learning and shapes their development in amazing ways. First, curiosity improves learning. When children are curious, their brains become active in searching for answers. For example, a child who wonders how plants grow might read books, watch videos, or even plant seeds to observe the process. This hands-on experience helps them remember information better and builds critical thinking skills. Second, curiosity encourages creativity. Curious kids often try new activities or solve problems in unique ways. Imagine a child experimenting with building blocks: they might fail many times, but each attempt teaches them something new. Over time, they learn to think outside the box and develop creative solutions. Also, curiosity helps children face challenges. Life is full of unknowns, but curious minds see challenges as adventures. Students struggling with math might ask questions, seek help, and practice until they succeed. This builds confidence and resilience. To support children’s growth, parents and teachers should encourage questions, provide learning resources, and let them explore safely. Remember, curiosity is not just about finding answers—it’s about enjoying the journey of discovery. By nurturing curiosity, we help kids become lifelong learners and creative thinkers. In short, curiosity lights the path of growth. Let’s protect this precious gift in every child! 1．What is curiosity compared to in the article? A．A treasure map. B．A dark night. C．A magic key.

Well, I did that when I got into a taxi and slammed (砰地关上) the door. I heard a loud crack. The crack was the sound of my phone’s screen breaking. The phone had been in the pocket of my jacket and my jacket had gotten caught in the taxi’s door. Besides the sound of breaking glass, the other sound I heard was my own voice saying, “Oh, no! What have I done?” But I couldn’t really get angry. The death of my phone was less of a tragedy (悲剧) than a comedy since it was my clumsiness that had killed it. So, for the next day, I had to live without a phone until I was able to buy a new one: no calls, no texts, no social media. And what I discovered was that I really didn’t miss making phone calls, or getting text messages, or reading social media posts. It was actually relaxing. For that whole day, I was able to stop living in a “virtual” world and start living in the “real” world. Smartphones have changed the way we live our lives. They are sources of communication, information and entertainment. All of these things are good, but too much of these things (too much of anything, really) can also be bad. There is a chemical in our brain called dopamine (多巴胺). Activities like scrolling through videos or posts cause our brains to release this chemical. It gives us pleasure. Actually, some of us have even become addicted (沉迷) to dopamine, the “happy hormone (荷尔蒙)”. This is why we may feel upset or anxious when we can’t use them. In order to treat this increasingly common addiction, some places are experimenting with the idea of a “digital detox*”. For example, people in the Indian village of Vadgaon are being forced to turn off their phones and TVs from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. every night. Smartphones are great, but you should be smart about using them. Put them away in your pocket for a while and enjoy the real world… but you should still be careful about getting into taxis. *digital detox：数码排毒，指选择到没有无线网络的地方度假。 1．What happened when the author got into the taxi?

This includes the water for growing food, producing clothes and generating (产生) electricity. Everything we use “drinks” some water before it reaches us. It’s important to understand our water footprint because water is a very precious resource—one we must use wisely. There are three main types of water footprints: green, blue, and grey. The green water footprint refers to the rainwater used to grow crops. For example, wheat and rice depend on rainwater to grow. The blue water footprint is the fresh water taken from rivers, lakes or underground sources for production. This includes the water used in factories or to irrigate (灌溉) crops. The grey water footprint is the water needed to clean up pollution. When factories release waste, it often takes a lot of water to clean up the mess. To see how much water we actually use, let’s look at some examples. Producing just one kilogram of beef takes about 15,000 liters of water. This water is used to grow food for the cows and to keep them healthy. By comparison, producing one kilogram of rice requires about 2,500 liters of water. This shows that different foods and products need different amounts of water. We can reduce our water footprint by saving water in our daily lives. Simple actions like turning off the tap while brushing your teeth, using less water when washing dishes and fixing leaks can all go a long way. Eating less meat can also help because producing meat uses a lot of water. Another smart move is to choose products that use less water to make. By understanding our water footprint and making thoughtful choices, we can help protect this important resource for the future. 1．By writing this article, the author mainly wanted to ________. A．show people how to reduce water pollution B．discuss the importance of saving water in daily life C．explain the idea of water footprint and how to reduce it D．compare the amount of water used in different products 2．The “grey water footprint” is the water used for ________. A．growing crops B．drinking and cooking C．cleaning up pollution D．washing clothes at home 3．How much water is needed to produce one kilogram of beef? A．2,500 liters. B．15,000 liters. C．5,000 liters. D．1,000 liters. 4．The examples of beef and rice are given to show that ________.

Around the world, people are developing creative methods to save water in homes, farms, and cities. One interesting innovation is “smart showers”. These showers have sensors that turn off the water when you step away, saving up to 50% of water used in a normal shower. Another invention is “greywater recycling systems”, which reuse water from sinks and washing machines to flush toilets or water gardens. Farmers are also using new technology to reduce water waste. Drones with infrared (红外线的) cameras can detect which parts of a field need more water, helping farmers water only where necessary. Some places even use “fog nets”—large mesh (网状的) screens that collect water from fog in dry areas. Cities are making changes too. In Singapore, “NEWater” is purified wastewater that is safe to drink. Meanwhile, some schools teach students to track water use with digital meters, encouraging them to save water every day. Small actions matter too. Fixing leaks, using a bucket instead of a hose to wash cars, and planting drought-resistant plants can all help. If we combine new technology with good habits, we can protect our water for the future. 1．What do “smart showers” do to save water? A．Play music while working. B．Turn off water when not in use. C．Heat water faster. D．Make showers longer. 2．How do drones help farmers save water? A．By watering all crops equally. B．By detecting which areas need water. C．By scaring away birds. D．By planting seeds automatically. 3．What is “greywater recycling”? A．Throwing away dirty water. B．Reusing water from sinks or washing machines for toilets or gardens. C．Drinking seawater. D．Collecting rainwater in barrels. 4．What is special about Singapore’s “NEWater”? A．It comes from melted icebergs. B．It is purified wastewater. C．It is only for washing clothes. D．It tastes like fruit juice. 5．What is one simple way people can save water at home? A．Leaving the tap running while brushing teeth. B．Using a bucket instead of a hose to wash cars. C．Taking baths every day. D．Watering plants at noon. 【答案】1．B 2．B 3．B 4．B 5．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述为了应对人口增长和气候变化，世界各地的人们在家庭、农场和城市中开发了各种创意节水方法，包括智能淋浴、灰水回收系统、农业无人机、雾网、新加坡的新生水以及一些家庭节水小行动等。 【详解】 1．细节理解题。根据第二段“These showers have sensors that turn off the water when you step away, saving up to 50% of water used in a normal shower.”可知，“智能淋浴”在不用时会关闭水来节水。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据第三段“Drones with infrared cameras can detect which parts of a field need more water, helping farmers water only where necessary.”可知，无人机通过检测哪些区域需要水来帮助农民节水。故选B。 3．细节理解题。根据第二段“Another invention is ‘greywater recycling systems’, which reuse water from sinks and washing machines to flush toilets or water gardens.”可知，灰水回收是指重复利用水槽和洗衣机的水来冲厕所或浇灌花园。故选B。 4．细节理解题。根据第四段“In Singapore, ‘NEWater’ is purified wastewater that is safe to drink.”可知，新加坡的“新生水”是净化后的废水。故选B。 5．细节理解题。根据最后一段“Fixing leaks, using a bucket instead of a hose to wash cars, and planting drought-resistant plants can all help.”可知，在家节水的简单方法之一是用桶而不是水管洗车。故选B。 三、请通读下面短文，掌握其大意，从每小题所给的选项中选出一个最佳答案。 Steven 1: 46 p. m. , Aug. 28, 2025 I just got a new computer.

Have you ever dreamed of using AI to help with your studies? Well, don’t just dream about it. The “AI-powered study rooms” that are popping up all over the country promise to do just that. Once you sign up, you’ll get a tablet (平板电脑) with “AI apps”. These apps will “create personalised study plans” and “tailor exercises based on your progress” to help you learn more effectively. These study rooms also claim (声称) that their services are more affordable (价格合理的) than traditional tutors (家教). The tablet, along with the first month of tutoring, usually costs 5,000 yuan. After that, it’s about 2,000 yuan per month. Don’t these promises sound tempting? But hold your horses! You’d better finish reading this article before asking your parents to pay the money. Many parents who have signed their children up for these “AI-powered study rooms” are far from impressed. The “AI apps” don’t live up to their promises. They just spot mistakes and offer repetitive exercises. On top of that, students basically follow pre-recorded lessons. “These so-called ‘AI-powered study rooms’ are more of a scam than a real display of new technologies,” some parents complain. Don’t feel discouraged, though. Your dream of learning with AI is still alive. There is just no need for you to spend a fortune on a paid “study room” to jump on the AI bandwagon. From Moonshot AI to DeepSeek, many companies offer their AI chatbots for free. You can use them to help with your studies right at home. The key is to learn how to use them wisely. Asking AI to do all the exercises in the school assignments for you simply isn’t the way to go! Instead, you could ask for clearer and more detailed explanations if you’re confused about something in class. You could also share some English sentences or compositions with an AI chatbot and ask it to point out any mistakes. It could even give you some exercises to help you improve. It will take some time and practice to become a smart AI user, but that effort will serve you better than just sitting in an “AI-powered study room”. 1．“AI-powered study rooms” promise to ________. A．replace schoolteachers B．offer free online courses C．help students learn better D．show students how to use AI 2．Mr. Yang would like to sign his son up for an “AI-powered study room”. He should prepare ________ yuan for the first six months of service. A．12,000 B．13,000 C．15,000 D．17,000 3．Why do some parents complain about “AI-powered study rooms”? A．Because their services are too expensive. B．Because they don’t really offer personalised tutoring. C．Because students are actually taught by human teachers. D．Because their “AI apps” provide only very basic lessons. 4．The author suggests students ________. A．study using their own tablets B．hire a traditional human tutor C．study with free AI chatbots at home D．forget about their dream of studying with AI 5．Students should avoid asking AI chatbots to ________. A．explain difficult topics B．correct their compositions C．offer targeted exercises D．complete their homework 【答案】1．C 2．C 3．B 4．C 5．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍AI学习机房的宣传、存在的弊端以及作者建议学生免费在家使用AI聊天工具学习。 【详解】 1．根据第三段中“These apps will ‘create personalised study plans’ and ‘tailor exercises based on your progress’ to help you learn more effectively.”可知，AI学习机房承诺帮助学生学得更好。 2．根据第三段中“The tablet, along with the first month of tutoring, usually costs 5,000 yuan. After that, it’s about 2,000 yuan per month.”可知，首月5000元，后面每个月2000元，6个月总费用：5000+2000×5=15000元。 3．根据第五段中“The ‘AI apps’ don’t live up to their promises. They just spot mistakes and offer repetitive exercises…students basically follow pre‑recorded lessons.”可知，家长抱怨的原因是它并没有真正提供个性化辅导。 4．根据第七段中“many companies offer their AI chatbots for free. You can use them to help with your studies right at home.”可知，作者建议学生在家使用免费的AI聊天机器人学习。 5．根据第七段中“Asking AI to do all the exercises in the school assignments for you simply isn’t the way to go!”可知，学生应当避免让AI聊天机器人完成家庭作业。 试卷第22页（共28页） 试卷第23页（共28页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
