A
We often spend lots of time judging others, but few of us take time to know ourselves well. Knowing yourself does not mean finding your weak points only. It means seeing both your strengths and weaknesses clearly, and accepting who you truly are.
Lily, a Grade Nine student, used to think she was not good enough. She admired her classmates who were outgoing and quick at answering questions in class. She kept comparing herself with others and felt upset every time she got a lower mark. Later, her head teacher had a long talk with her. The teacher told her that everyone has different personalities and talents. Some people are good at public speech, while quiet people are careful and patient.
Lily began to change. She stopped comparing herself blindly. She found she was good at planning things and listening to friends’ problems. She also realized that it was OK to make mistakes. Mistakes could help her find what she needed to improve. Slowly, she built up confidence.
Knowing yourself is a lifelong journey. When you truly understand your own personality, you can make proper plans for your life and make better decisions. You do not need to copy others’ path. The best competition is the one between you and your old self.

Nowadays, many teenagers are troubled by the conflict between heavy schoolwork and personal hobbies. High expectations from parents bring lots of pressure, and it is hard for some young people to find a proper balance between study and their interests.
Leo is a Grade Nine student who has such a problem. He has loved painting since he was seven. For Leo, painting is more than a hobby. It is the best way to clear his mind and release pressure after long hours of schoolwork. When he holds the paintbrush, he can forget his tiredness and regain energy.
Leo’s parents think differently. They hope Leo can get excellent grades for his future development. So they made a strict study plan. Most of his spare time is filled with revision and exercises. They believe painting wastes study time and are afraid that Leo will fall behind his classmates.
Leo has tried several times to communicate with his parents. He told them painting helps him stay in a good mood for study. However, they failed to reach an agreement. Now Leo often stays up late to finish homework. He feels tired and worried every day. He does not want to argue, but he wishes his parents could understand him.
This is a common teenage problem. When disagreements appear, teenagers can talk calmly with parents and make a reasonable plan. In this way, they can keep a balance between study and hobbies.
6. What is Leo’s problem?
A. He is poor at all his school subjects.
B. His parents disagree with his hobby of painting.
C. He often fights with his classmates at school.
D. He has no time to sleep because of painting.
7. Why does Leo love painting?
A. It can help him relax and reduce stress. B. It can help him get better grades.
C. His teacher asks him to practise painting. D. He wants to become a famous painter.
8. Put the following sentences in the correct order.
① Leo often stays up late and feels worried.
② Leo tries to talk with his parents many times.
③ Leo’s parents make a strict study timetable for him.
④ Leo likes painting to relax himself after study.
A. ③④①② B. ④②③① C. ④③②① D. ③②④①
9. Which word can best describe Leo’s feeling now?
A. relaxed B. satisfied C. worried D. proud
10. What suggestion does the writer give for this kind of teenage problem?
A. Stop painting and follow his parents’ plan. B. Never talk with his parents any more.
C. Keep silent and do whatever he likes. D. Try to communicate and keep balance.
C
Now AI tools are widely popular among teenagers. Many students use AI tools to search for information, organize writing ideas and solve difficult study tasks. AI brings great convenience for learning, but it also brings some new problems we cannot ignore.
Some students depend too much on AI. When they meet difficult exercises or composition tasks, they simply copy ready‑made answers directly from AI without independent thinking. They skip the process of thinking and trying. As a result, they lose the valuable chance to practise their thinking and problem‑solving skills. They may get high marks on homework finished with AI’s help, but they cannot work out similar problems on their own during real exams.
AI is a useful tool, just like a dictionary. A dictionary can help you learn new words and phrases, but it can never replace your own reading and thinking. We can use AI to collect materials and get useful advice for our study. However, we should not let AI finish all the work instead of us. We still need to think carefully, check the information and form our own ideas.
Learning is a long process of thinking and practising. No digital tools can take the place of our own hard work. If we use AI in a proper way, it will become a helpful helper on our road of growth.
11. What is the advantage of AI for students?
A. It can do all the thinking for them. B. It offers convenience for study.
C. It can take exams instead of them. D. It can improve grades without effort.
12. What problem comes from over‑depending on AI?
A. Students have less time to read books. B. Students lose chances to practise thinking.
C. Students can’t use dictionaries any more. D. Students can’t find information online.
13. The writer compares AI to ______.
A. a dictionary B. a teacher C. a textbook D. a classmate
14. Which of the following is the right way to use AI?
A. Copy AI’s answers for homework. B. Let AI finish all writing tasks.
C. Use it to collect materials and get advice. D. Believe all the answers from AI.
15. What is the writer’s opinion?
A. AI is useless for teenagers. B. AI can replace hard work.
C. We should use AI properly. D. Students must not use AI at all.
四、信息还原(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Life is full of difficulties and unexpected failures. Whenever we meet hard problems, many of us may feel upset and want to stop trying. 1. ______ The spirit of never giving up does not mean we have to keep working in the same way blindly. It means we are willing to adjust our methods and keep moving forward until we find a way out.
Many great people did not achieve success right away. They failed many times before they finally made it. Some of them spent years practising and trying different plans. Every failure offered them new information and helped them stay away from the same mistakes next time. 2. ______ They chose to learn from failures instead of letting failures beat them.
When you are facing trouble, it is normal to feel tired or hopeless. You can take a short break to relax yourself. 3. ______ A proper rest helps you clear your mind and get back your energy. However, a break is not the same as giving up. You should set a time limit and make a plan to start again.
Another important point is to set small goals. A big dream may seem too hard to reach at first. If you cut the big task into several small steps, things will become much easier. Each small win can build your confidence little by little. 4. ______ Slowly these small achievements will lead you closer to your final dream.
Never expect everything to go smoothly. Difficulties are part of the journey. The real victory lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall. 5. ______

阅读下面短文,根据短文内容回答问题,每小题答案不超过10个单词。
Blue light exists all around us in daily life. It is a part of visible light. It comes from many sources, including sunlight, mobile phones, computer screens and indoor LED lights. People often believe all blue light is harmful to our body, but this is not the truth. Natural blue light from the sun plays an active role. It helps keep us awake in the daytime, controls our body clock, lifts our spirits and improves our concentration for study and work.
However, man‑made blue light from electronic screens becomes a hidden trouble when we use devices late at night. Our brain makes melatonin, a special chemical. It tells our body it is time to rest and fall asleep. Screen blue light will slow down the production of melatonin. If we keep looking at screens before bed, we will feel less sleepy. Poor sleep influences teenagers greatly. It makes it difficult for them to concentrate in class and weakens their immune system. Teens may easily feel tired or catch a cold.
Luckily, we can take simple steps to reduce its bad influence. Cut down screen time at least one hour before bedtime. Use warm yellow lights instead of cool white LED lights at night. When you have to use screens, turn on the night mode. Experts remind us that we do not need to avoid blue light completely. What really matters is to manage our screen time wisely.
1. Where does natural blue light come from?
____________________________________________________
2. What is the use of melatonin for our body?
____________________________________________________
3. Why is screen blue light harmful at night?
____________________________________________________
4. What problem will poor sleep bring to teenagers?
____________________________________________________
5. What is the key to deal with blue light?
____________________________________________________
