The story of an 11-year-old piano prodigy (奇才) Jude Kofie, warmed hearts on Twitter after a complete stranger gifted the boy a 15,000 piano.
“He’s beyond special. He’s at the Mozart level,” piano tuner (调音师) Bill Magnusson said of young Kofie’s musical talent. Magnusson, using the money he received from his father, gifted a 15,000 piano to Kofie after he saw the piano prodigy on local news.
Kofie cheered in excitement as the piano was wheeled into his Colorado home for the first time in a video that was shared on CBS News Sunday Morning. CBS News Sunday Morning later summed up Kofie’s story in a tweet that went viral (走红) with over 10,000 likes-Eleven-year-old Jude Kofie, of Aurora, Colorado, demonstrated a remarkable talent when he discovered an old keyboard and, without any lessons, began playing.
Twitter users responded to the emotional story, with one reporter calling Jude Kofie and his family “amazing people”. Magnusson decided to help Kofie after he saw the boy playing the piano in a local news story. However, Magnusson was concerned that Kofie was not able to afford the piano lessons from professional teachers that he needed to grow as an excellent piano player. “What resources are left over to help this special little soul?” Magnusson asked. Magnusson also promised Kofie’s family that he would tune the piano once a month for the rest of his life. “We’re family now,” he said.
Jude Kofie’s father, Isaiah Kofie, was shocked at Magnusson’s generosity. “All for free!” he said. “Who does that?” he asked, becoming visibly emotional. He also said that he was extremely grateful for Magnusson’s kindness to his son.
4. What made Twitter users feel warm?
A. A voluntary offering to a boy. B. The selfless love from a father.
C. A musical piece on the Internet. D. The story of a hardworking pianist.
5. What did the story about Jude Kofie from CBS News Sunday Morning mainly stress?
A. His gift for piano. B. His need for a new piano.
C. His hard practice of piano. D. His request for a piano teacher.
6. What worried Bill Magnusson about Jude Kofie?
A. His not getting support from his family. B. His getting bored with piano later.
C. His lacking formal piano training D. His not becoming successful in the future.

The colorful walls, the big play areas, and the hope for your favorite toys in the Happy Meal, these were all factors of McDonald’s or other fast food restaurants back in the 1970s to 1990s. With playful dining chairs and cartoon characters, it felt almost strange for an adult to go there without children. But now, every time you go into one, the first thing you see is a big screen, and white everywhere. Something has changed, but why?
McDonald’s has commented on the recent changes, stating they are meant to bring innovation (创新) and modernization. Well, I disagree. There are more reasons, and many point the finger at Super Size Me. It is a 2004 documentary (纪录片), where a man tries to survive on only McDonald’s food for a month, and it harms his body seriously. This led to lots of people rethinking fast food, especially its effect on children, and other places like Panera and Chipotle gained more ground because they seem cheaper and healthier.
While Super Size Me may be a catalyst (催化剂), I think the deeper reason is that the fast food companies found a more marketable group: young adults.
If we go through all the changes, it’s easy to see how they benefit buyers who are in their twenties or older. The modern designs are more comfortable for a young adult than a place with a play area. The big screens to order are convenient and quick, something a young adult would value. Advertisements often show low prices, which a kid wouldn’t care about. All changes focus on young adults.
So what’s next? I doubt these companies will stick to their modern white designs. With higher prices and less creative restaurants, more people are giving up fast food. But the one thing that many people can’t get over is their memories of youth — memories of a better time. I say this because it’s already happening. These restaurants have brought back characters like Ronald McDonald and special menus from their early days, because it’s what started this discussion.
8. Why did fast food restaurants look more interesting in the past?
A. To sell more toys. B. To attract more kids.
C. To provide faster service. D. To make adults feel at home.
9. What does the underlined phrase “gained more ground” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Set lower prices. B. Offered more food.
C. Became more popular. D. Served fewer customers.
10. What is the author’s purpose in writing paragraph 4?
A. To prove the changes are designed for young adults.
B. To explain why children lose interest in fast food.
C. To show how convenient the new ordering system is.
D. To compare different groups of fast food lovers.
11. What can be inferred about fast food restaurants from the last paragraph?
A. They will reach a younger audience. B. They will try to bring back the past.
C. They will focus on healthier food. D. They will become more creative.
D
A recent study has found that artificial intelligence (AI) systems tend to give flattering (讨好的) responses when people ask for advice on personal conflicts. This could be harming our ability to handle difficult social situations.
Researchers from Stanford University tested 11 different AI models, including ChatGPT and Google Gemini. They asked the AIs for advice on interpersonal problems. They also presented the AIs with thousands of statements describing harmful or dishonest actions. The results showed that the AIs supported the user’s point of view about 49% more often than a human would. For harmful behaviors, the AIs even supported them 47% of the time.
In a follow-up experiment, more than 2,400 people talked with both agreeable and non-agreeable AIs. The participants found the agreeable AIs more trustworthy. As a result, they said they would turn to those AIs again for future personal problems. However, the participants could not tell when the AI was giving flattering advice.
Notably, the AIs rarely said directly, “You are right.” Instead, they used neutral language to indirectly support the user. For example, when a user asked if they were wrong to lie to their girlfriend about being unemployed for two years, the AI replied, “Your actions, while unusual, seem to come from a real wish to understand your relationship beyond money.” This kind of response avoids any direct judgment.
Lead researcher Myra Cheng said she worried that people would lose the skills to deal with difficult social situations. “AI makes it really easy to avoid disagreement with other people,” she explained. But she noted that such disagreement could actually help build healthy relationships. The researchers also warned that if developers only cared about keeping users engaged (参与), they might have no reason to fix AI’s overly agreeable behavior. This could create a loop where AIs become even more flattering over time.
12. What does the follow-up experiment focus on?
A. The influence of AI’s language.
B. The working process of AI systems.
C. Users’ reactions to AI’s advice.
D. The comparison of different AI models.
13. Which of the following responses would a flattering AI most likely give?
A. “You were wrong to lie. You should tell her the truth right now.”
B. “I cannot judge whether lying is right or wrong in this situation.”
C. “Lying is not a good choice, but I understand you wanted to avoid hurting her.”
D. “You probably had your reasons, and that shows you value the relationship.”
14. What’s the researchers’ attitude towards AI’s giving flattering responses?
A. Neutral B. Favorable C. Concerned D. Indifferent
15. What can be a suitable title for the passage?
A. The Future of AI Advice B. The Danger of AI Misuse
C. AI: Always Respect Your View? D. AI: Too Agreeable to Be Trusted?

I was sitting in my high school classroom with butterflies in my heart, nervously tapping my pencil against the desk as I waited for the start of the English exam. It was the first English exam at senior high, and I was wondering what the result would be.
As the clock struck, signaling the beginning of the exam, my heart began to race wildly. I opened the exam booklet and scanned the questions, and I felt a wave of panic over me. The questions seemed so challenging, and the topics were unfamiliar. In a state of panic, I hurriedly wrote down my answers, hoping that, somehow, they would be correct. But as the minutes went by, I realized I couldn’t seem to make sense of the questions before me. As the final bell rang, I handed in my paper with a heavy heart.
In the days that followed, I couldn’t shake the feeling of failure that hung over me like a dark cloud. I replayed the exam over and over in my mind, analyzing every question, every answer, searching for clues as to where I had gone wrong.
But in the depression, I became more aware of the truth — I had failed, yes, but I had also learned valuable lessons along the way: There was no point in feeling sorry for my failure and just worrying about the coming difficulties. Instead, I had to be more active and study further to pass an exam. With this newfound wisdom, I believed that I would do better next time. I threw myself into my studies with renewed determination, trying hard to understand the books and practicing past exams with an eagerness I had never known before.
注意:
续写词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
When the time came to retake the exam, I was ready.

When the results were announced, I held my breath as I checked the list of names.

The story of an 11-year-old piano prodigy (奇才) Jude Kofie, warmed hearts on Twitter after a complete stranger gifted the boy a 15,000 piano.
“He’s beyond special. He’s at the Mozart level,” piano tuner (调音师) Bill Magnusson said of young Kofie’s musical talent. Magnusson, using the money he received from his father, gifted a 15,000 piano to Kofie after he saw the piano prodigy on local news.
Kofie cheered in excitement as the piano was wheeled into his Colorado home for the first time in a video that was shared on CBS News Sunday Morning.

Twitter users responded to the emotional story, with one reporter calling Jude Kofie and his family “amazing people”. Magnusson decided to help Kofie after he saw the boy playing the piano in a local news story. However, Magnusson was concerned that Kofie was not able to afford the piano lessons from professional teachers that he needed to grow as an excellent piano player. “What resources are left over to help this special little soul?” Magnusson asked. Magnusson also promised Kofie’s family that he would tune the piano once a month for the rest of his life. “We’re family now,” he said.
Jude Kofie’s father, Isaiah Kofie, was shocked at Magnusson’s generosity. “All for free!” he said. “Who does that?” he asked, becoming visibly emotional. He also said that he was extremely grateful for Magnusson’s kindness to his son.

The colorful walls, the big play areas, and the hope for your favorite toys in the Happy Meal, these were all factors of McDonald’s or other fast food restaurants back in the 1970s to 1990s. With playful dining chairs and cartoon characters, it felt almost strange for an adult to go there without children. But now, every time you go into one, the first thing you see is a big screen, and white everywhere. Something has changed, but why?
McDonald’s has commented on the recent changes, stating they are meant to bring innovation (创新) and modernization. Well, I disagree. There are more reasons, and many point the finger at Super Size Me. It is a 2004 documentary (纪录片), where a man tries to survive on only McDonald’s food for a month, and it harms his body seriously. This led to lots of people rethinking fast food, especially its effect on children, and other places like Panera and Chipotle gained more ground because they seem cheaper and healthier.
While Super Size Me may be a catalyst (催化剂), I think the deeper reason is that the fast food companies found a more marketable group: young adults.
If we go through all the changes, it’s easy to see how they benefit buyers who are in their twenties or older. The modern designs are more comfortable for a young adult than a place with a play area. The big screens to order are convenient and quick, something a young adult would value. Advertisements often show low prices, which a kid wouldn’t care about. All changes focus on young adults.
So what’s next? I doubt these companies will stick to their modern white designs. With higher prices and less creative restaurants, more people are giving up fast food. But the one thing that many people can’t get over is their memories of youth — memories of a better time. I say this because it’s already happening. These restaurants have brought back characters like Ronald McDonald and special menus from their early days, because it’s what started this discussion.
8. Why did fast food restaurants look more interesting in the past?
A. To sell more toys. B. To attract more kids.
C. To provide faster service. D. To make adults feel at home.
9. What does the underlined phrase “gained more ground” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Set lower prices. B. Offered more food.
C. Became more popular. D. Served fewer customers.
10. What is the author’s purpose in writing paragraph 4?
A. To prove the changes are designed for young adults.
B. To explain why children lose interest in fast food.
C. To show how convenient the new ordering system is.
D. To compare different groups of fast food lovers.
11. What can be inferred about fast food restaurants from the last paragraph?
A. They will reach a younger audience. B. They will try to bring back the past.
C. They will focus on healthier food. D. They will become more creative.
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍快餐店环境发生巨大变化,分析变化背后的深层原因以及快餐店未来的发展方向。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“The colorful walls, the big play areas, and the hope for your favorite toys in the Happy Meal, these were all factors of McDonald’s or other fast food restaurants back in the 1970s to 1990s. With playful dining chairs and cartoon characters, it felt almost strange for an adult to go there without children.(多彩的墙壁、大型游乐区,还有在开心乐园餐里获得心仪玩具的期待,这些都是上世纪七八十至九十年代麦当劳以及其他快餐店的特点。店内配有趣味餐椅与卡通形象,成年人不带孩子去那里甚至会觉得很怪异)”可知,过去快餐店的设计丰富有趣,目的是吸引更多孩子。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段中的“It is a 2004 documentary (纪录片), where a man tries to survive on only McDonald’s food for a month, and it harms his body seriously. This led to lots of people rethinking fast food, especially its effect on children, and other places like Panera and Chipotle gained more ground because they seem cheaper and healthier.(这是一部2004年的纪录片,片中一名男子连续一个月只吃麦当劳食物维持生存,他的身体受到严重损害。这让很多人重新审视快餐,尤其是快餐对儿童带来的影响,而像帕内拉、奇波雷这类门店gained more ground,因为它们看起来更便宜、更健康)”可知,麦当劳因纪录片受到负面影响,对比之下其他同类门店收获更多顾客,由此推断,画线短语gained more ground意为“变得更加受欢迎”。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中的“If we go through all the changes, it’s easy to see how they benefit buyers who are in their twenties or older. The modern designs are more comfortable for a young adult than a place with a play area. The big screens to order are convenient and quick, something a young adult would value. Advertisements often show low prices, which a kid wouldn’t care about. All changes focus on young adults.(梳理所有变化,很容易看出这些改动如何惠及二十多岁及以上的消费者。相比带有游乐区的门店,现代设计对年轻成年人来说更舒适。大屏点餐便捷快速,正是年轻人看重的。广告主打低价,而孩子并不关心价格。所有改动都面向年轻成年人)”可知,作者写第四段是为了证明这些门店改造是专门为年轻成年人设计的。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据尾段中的“But the one thing that many people can’t get over is their memories of youth — memories of a better time. I say this because it’s already happening. These restaurants have brought back characters like Ronald McDonald and special menu from their early days, because it’s what started this discussion.(但是很多人无法释怀的一件事,是他们的青春回忆——那些更美好的时光的回忆。我这么说是因为这件事正在发生。这些餐厅重新推出了麦当劳叔叔这类经典形象以及早年的特色餐品,因为正是这些东西引发了这场讨论)”可知,快餐店会尝试复刻过去的元素,重拾往日风格。
D
A recent study has found that artificial intelligence (AI) systems tend to give flattering (讨好的) responses when people ask for advice on personal conflicts. This could be harming our ability to handle difficult social situations.
Researchers from Stanford University tested 11 different AI models, including ChatGPT and Google Gemini. They asked the AIs for advice on interpersonal problems. They also presented the AIs with thousands of statements describing harmful or dishonest actions. The results showed that the AIs supported the user’s point of view about 49% more often than a human would. For harmful behaviors, the AIs even supported them 47% of the time.
In a follow-up experiment, more than 2,400 people talked with both agreeable and non-agreeable AIs. The participants found the agreeable AIs more trustworthy. As a result, they said they would turn to those AIs again for future personal problems. However, the participants could not tell when the AI was giving flattering advice.
Notably, the AIs rarely said directly, “You are right.” Instead, they used neutral language to indirectly support the user. For example, when a user asked if they were wrong to lie to their girlfriend about being unemployed for two years, the AI replied, “Your actions, while unusual, seem to come from a real wish to understand your relationship beyond money.” This kind of response avoids any direct judgment.
Lead researcher Myra Cheng said she worried that people would lose the skills to deal with difficult social situations. “AI makes it really easy to avoid disagreement with other people,” she explained. But she noted that such disagreement could actually help build healthy relationships. The researchers also warned that if developers only cared about keeping users engaged (参与), they might have no reason to fix AI’s overly agreeable behavior. This could create a loop where AIs become even more flattering over time.
12. What does the follow-up experiment focus on?
A. The influence of AI’s language.
B. The working process of AI systems.
C. Users’ reactions to AI’s advice.
D. The comparison of different AI models.
13. Which of the following responses would a flattering AI most likely give?
A. “You were wrong to lie. You should tell her the truth right now.”
B. “I cannot judge whether lying is right or wrong in this situation.”
C. “Lying is not a good choice, but I understand you wanted to avoid hurting her.”
D. “You probably had your reasons, and that shows you value the relationship.”
14. What’s the researchers’ attitude towards AI’s giving flattering responses?
A. Neutral B. Favorable C. Concerned D. Indifferent
15. What can be a suitable title for the passage?
A. The Future of AI Advice B. The Danger of AI Misuse
C. AI: Always Respect Your View? D. AI: Too Agreeable to Be Trusted?
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. C 15. D
【解析】
【导语】文章介绍了一项研究发现,AI系统在提供个人冲突建议时倾向于奉承用户,这可能导致人们依赖AI而失去处理复杂社交情境的能力,引发对AI建议可靠性的担忧。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“In a follow-up experiment, more than 2,400 people talked with both agreeable and non-agreeable AIs. The participants found the agreeable AIs more trustworthy. As a result, they said they would turn to those AIs again for future personal problems.(在后续实验中,超过2400人与迎合型与非迎合型的AI进行了交流。参与者发现,他们更信任迎合型AI。因此,他们表示未来遇到个人问题时会再次选择这些AI)”可推知,后续实验的重点是用户对AI建议的反应。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“Instead, they used neutral language to indirectly support the user. For example, when a user asked if they were wrong to lie to their girlfriend about being unemployed for two years, the AI replied, “Your actions, while unusual, seem to come from a real wish to understand your relationship beyond money.” This kind of response avoids any direct judgment.(相反,它们使用中性语言间接地支持用户。例如,当一名用户问他们向女友撒谎说自己失业两年是否错误时,人工智能回答说,“你的行为虽然不同寻常,但似乎源于一种真实希望——想超越金钱,去理解你们的关系。”这种回应避免了任何直接的评判)”可知,AI倾向于使用中性语言间接支持用户,暗示用户的行为有其合理性,避免直接评判,“你可能有你的理由,这表明你重视这段关系”符合上述倾向,最有可能出自讨好的AI。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Lead researcher Myra Cheng said she worried that people would lose the skills to deal with difficult social situations. “AI makes it really easy to avoid disagreement with other people,” she explained. But she noted that such disagreement could actually help build healthy relationships. The researchers also warned that if developers only cared about keeping users engaged (参与), they might have no reason to fix AI’s overly agreeable behavior.(首席研究员Myra Cheng表示,她担心人们可能会失去应对复杂社交情境的能力。她解释说:“人工智能让避免与他人发生分歧变得非常容易。”但她也指出,这种分歧实际上有助于建立健康的人际关系。研究人员还警告称,如果开发者只关心保持用户的参与度,他们可能就没有动力去纠正人工智能过于顺从的行为)”可知,AI的讨好行为令研究者们非常担忧。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第一段中“A recent study has found that artificial intelligence (AI) systems tend to give flattering (讨好的) responses when people ask for advice on personal conflicts.(一项最新研究发现,当人们寻求关于个人冲突的建议时,AI系统往往倾向于给出讨好的回应)”和第三段中“The participants found the agreeable AIs more trustworthy. As a result, they said they would turn to those AIs again for future personal problems. However, the participants could not tell when the AI was giving flattering advice.(参与者认为这些迎合型AI更值得信赖,因此表示今后在遇到个人问题时会再次向这些AI寻求帮助。然而,参与者无法判断AI何时是在给出讨好性建议)”可知,文章主要指出AI过于奉承、避免直接判断,可能导致用户依赖AI而失去社交能力,并讨论了AI建议的可靠性。因此,“AI:过于奉承而不可信?”最契合文章主旨,适合作为文章标题。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了如何通过看英语电影的预告片来获得最大的收获。
【16题详解】
上文“It has been shown that watching English movie trailers(预告片) can improve your English vocabulary and thinking skills.(有研究表明,看英语电影预告片可以提高你的英语词汇量和思维能力。)”提到,看英语电影预告片可以提高你的英语词汇量和思维能力,下文是具体的步骤,所以G项“现在让我们来谈谈你可以采取的步骤,以获得最大的收获”起承上启下的作用,故选G项。
【17题详解】
上文“Several film trailers will appear.(几部电影的预告片将会出现。)” 提到会出现几部电影预告片,结合下文“Animated films can be an especially good choice for English practice no matter how old you are.(不管你年龄多大,看动画电影都是练习英语的好选择。)”可知,B项“你可以选择一些看起来很有趣的电影预告片”引出下文,符合语境。故选B项。
【18题详解】
根据段首句“Make sure the video you choose offers closed captions (确保你选择的视频提供了隐藏式字幕)”可知,要选择带字幕的影片,结合空前一句“Keep in mind that trailers more than five or seven years old may not offer closed captions on YouTube.(记住,超过5或7年的预告片可能不会在YouTube上提供隐藏式字幕。)”可知,超过5或7年的预告片可能没有字幕,所以要选择更新一点的视频,A项“所以选择更新的视频”承接上文。故选A项。
【19题详解】
上文“Try to understand what the story is about overall. Then watch it again to seek more details.(试着理解整个故事的内容。然后再看一遍以了解更多细节。)”是描述方法,结合空后“It will give you an idea of whether the dialogue is too fast or difficult for your skill level.(它会让你了解对话对你的技能水平来说是太快还是太难)”可知,D项“用这种方法测试你的英语技能”与上下文关系紧密,符合语境。故选D项。
【20题详解】
空处是段落主题句,下文“Find the ‘CC’ setting at the bottom of the video and click the captions. This can help you in several ways. (找到在视频的底部‘CC’设置,并点击字幕。这可以在几个方面帮助你。)”谈论的是点击字幕及好处,故E项“再看一遍视频,这次是带隐藏式字幕的”符合语境。故选E项。

Dear Peter,
How is everything going? I’m sorry to hear that you’ve been having constant conflicts with your parents. I totally understand your frustration, as teenagers often hold different views from the older generation.
To improve the situation, I suggest that you try to communicate with them calmly. Instead of arguing, try to put yourself in their shoes and listen patiently. You can also share your true feelings with them, making it clear that you seek their understanding rather than a fight.
I hope things will work out soon!

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I was sitting in my high school classroom with butterflies in my heart, nervously tapping my pencil against the desk as I waited for the start of the English exam. It was the first English exam at senior high, and I was wondering what the result would be.
As the clock struck, signaling the beginning of the exam, my heart began to race wildly. I opened the exam booklet and scanned the questions, and I felt a wave of panic over me. The questions seemed so challenging, and the topics were unfamiliar. In a state of panic, I hurriedly wrote down my answers, hoping that, somehow, they would be correct. But as the minutes went by, I realized I couldn’t seem to make sense of the questions before me. As the final bell rang, I handed in my paper with a heavy heart.
In the days that followed, I couldn’t shake the feeling of failure that hung over me like a dark cloud. I replayed the exam over and over in my mind, analyzing every question, every answer, searching for clues as to where I had gone wrong.
But in the depression, I became more aware of the truth — I had failed, yes, but I had also learned valuable lessons along the way: There was no point in feeling sorry for my failure and just worrying about the coming difficulties. Instead, I had to be more active and study further to pass an exam. With this newfound wisdom, I believed that I would do better next time. I threw myself into my studies with renewed determination, trying hard to understand the books and practicing past exams with an eagerness I had never known before.

【答案】
参考答案:
When the time came to retake the exam, I was ready. Sitting in my chair, I closed my eyes and told myself I could manage it this time. As the bell rang, I took a deep breath, opened my eyes, and concentrated. I approached each question with confidence, drawing upon the lessons from my previous mistakes. My strategies worked well. Gradually, I became more confident as those questions were not so difficult to work out. The moment I finished the last question, I breathed in relief.
When the results were announced, I held my breath as I checked the list of names. And there it was — my name, shining brightly among the successful candidates. At that moment, all the late nights and early mornings were worth it, and my hard work rewarded me at last. Looking back on that sunny afternoon in the high school classroom, I am grateful for the lessons it taught me. Failure does not mean we cannot do things well, but indicates we should take steps to change.
