Passage 1
（2024·山东青岛·一模）Live streaming (直播) is very popular nowadays. But have you watched live streaming shows given by virtual boss (虚拟主播) They look like real people, but actually they are Just digital (数字的) characters created by AI companies.
Xmov is such an AI company in China. Founded in 2018, It has created many great digital humans. The company is the first in China to create a virtual social media star named Ling, who is always seen in traditional Chinese clothes. In August 2023, the company also used a 3D AI host to present their new products to more than 300 guests at an event, which cawed a heated discussion among people.
Now, many companies are using virtual hosts to sell their products through live streaming. For one thing, it costs much less than building a traditional live streaming room and team.

Passage 2
（2024·宁夏银川·一模）Because of the COVID-19, many people look for fun online. Watching livestreaming shows has become part of their lives. At the same time, traditional culture has found a bigger stage (舞台) online. Many traditional artists are starting to livestream like Douyin and Bilibili. Some of them sing Peking Opera (京剧), some make paper cutting, while others perform Chinese classical music. A growing number of young people are starting to become more interested in traditional culture because of livestreaming.
Li Jun is a Peking Opera performer from the Shanghai Jingju Theater Company. The 59-year-old took up his smart phone and started livestreaming. Unlike performing on a real stage, Li uses common places as his stage, including his office and study room. Except singing, Li also teaches viewers (观众) about Peking Opera. People can ask him questions and get answers directly.
“Livestreaming has brought this traditional art down to earth.” One viewer said, “it gives young people an easier way to learn more about the traditional art.” Li has more than 6,000 fans on Douyin, while one of his videos got 42,000 views on Bilibili.
On March 26th, 2020, Bilibili livestreamed a huafu show on the third China Huafu Day. Performers showed clothes in traditional Chinese styles, including those from Wei, Tang and Ming dynasties.

Passage 4
（2024·安徽滁州·二模）Scientists believe the Earth is 4.6 billion years old. However, the mountains, valleys (山谷), hills, rivers, deserts and forests we see today are much younger than that. For example, Mount Qomolangma is about 60 million years old and the Amazon rainforest is only 10 million years old. The youngest sea in the world is the Baltic Sea, at about 15,000 years old.
The Earth is always changing because of volcanoes (火山), earthquakes and of course, wind and rain. Some of these changes are very slow and others are quick. Water and ice can make very great changes to the planet. For example, glaciers (rivers of ice) can cut through mountains and
make lakes and deep valleys. Many volcanoes are under the oceans and sometimes they become new islands. This is happening in the South Pacific, near Tonga.
It’s normal for our planet to change, but at the moment, scientists think it’s changing faster than usual. Some deserts are growing and many forests are getting smaller. The weather is getting wetter in some places and drier in others, and there are more big storms. According to the research, the sea level will continue to rise in the next hundred years. As a result, many cities will possibly be covered by water and much of the most productive farming areas will be lost. Some island countries are likely to disappear on the map of the world.
These changes will bring great harm to the planet. However, they can be beneficial to some people. For example, as the Arctic is getting warmer, some people in Greenland now own businesses and sell vegetables they grow on their land. That wasn’t possible in the far north 50 years ago. Farmers in Greenland like the warm weather and hope it will continue.
13．How does the writer describe the changes of the Earth in Paragraph 2
A．By giving examples. B．By listing numbers.
C．By telling stories. D．By using sayings.
14．What can we learn from Paragraph 3
A．The age of the Earth. B．Problems for the planet.
C．The life of the farmers. D．Influences on the mountains.
15．What does the underlined word “beneficial” in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A．harmful B．normal C．helpful D．uncomfortable
Passage 5
（2024·湖南长沙·二模）Prince Nallamothula is a nine-year-old inventor. He built a model for a robot that will let people do farm work remotely (远程).
When Prince was a young boy, he didn’t share the same interest as the others. He didn’t have many toys at home and seldom played computer games. However, he was interested in playing with blocks to build things whenever he could.
One day, Prince’s mom said that there was not enough space in their apartment to grow all
her plants, so he started thinking about ways to solve the problem. Then an idea came up, “What if we plant them in a different place from where we live ”
Prince spent about two to three months building his robot. Before drawing out designs, he had to search for a great deal of information on the Internet. In order to build the robot successfully, he went to the market to buy necessary parts. The robot had everything to help it move around. The last step is doing all the coding (编程) to get the robot to be useful and not just a model. His robot was named GrRobot. It had a camera for live video and a basket to plant seeds. It could decide whether to open the sprinkler (喷洒器) according to the soil conditions (土壤情况). All of these will help farmers do farm work and even some difficult work.
Besides this robot, Prince had also invented a game and apps. When asked about the secret to his achievements, he replied, “Seeing people’s life getting better because of my inventions makes me feel great. I’ll do what I can to solve more people’s problems. And the world may be different with my help.”

Passage 7
（2024·山东济南·二模）Scientists in Switzerland have used lasers (激光) to change the path of a lightning strike (雷击的路径). The experiment suggests that in the future, lasers might be useful for protecting large buildings from lightning.
Lightning can be extremely powerful and cause serious problems on the ground. Lightning strike can cause fires, destroy buildings, and even kill people. The damage from lightning costs billions of dollars every year. In the US, lightning strikes killed close to 450 people between 2006 and 2021.
Scientists have been trying to find a way to protect buildings from lightning for a long time. Now the best way is by putting metal rods (金属竿) on the buildings. These rods are connected to the ground. The lightning is attracted to the rods, which safely guide the electricity into the ground. But lightning rods can only protect a small area. Some buildings—such as airports are so large that it’s difficult to protect the whole building using lightning rods.
Another idea is to use lasers to guide lightning. Scientists had been working on the idea for over 20 years. They have successfully guided lightning with lasers inside a lab. But until the summer of 2021, scientists could guide lightning with lasers outside. Using a powerful laser, scientists in Switzerland were able to guide lightning for meters.
The heat from the laser creates a path of air that is less thick than the air around it. The path also has a special charge (电荷). The lightning can follow this path almost as if it were a lightning rod. Scientist Matteo Clerici said, “The fact that we managed to do it in an outdoor environment is a very big step.”
But the laser still didn’t guide the lightning as far as the scientists would like. Besides, the laser is also very expensive. The scientists say it cost about $2 billion. It will probably take 10 or more years before a laser like this is truly able to protect large buildings.
23．What is the laser technology expected to protect
A．High-rise buildings. B．Large buildings.
C．Beautiful buildings. D．Important buildings.
24．To know how powerful lightning can be, which paragraph can we read
A．Paragraph 2. B．Paragraph 3. C．Paragraph 4. D．Paragraph 5.
25．Why are lasers not used widely for changing the path of lightning strike now
A．Putting metal rods on the buildings is the best way.
B．Some buildings are so large that it’s difficult to protect.
C．Lasers are only able to guide lightning for a short distance.
D．Lasers are so expensive that scientists can’t pay for experimenting.
26．What can we learn from what Matteo Clerici said
A．Scientists still need to work harder to achieve a greater success.
B．It is not easy for scientists to guide lightning with lasers outside.
C．Scientists need to change working environment in next experiments.
D．It is a great progress for scientists to guide lightning with lasers outside.
27．What can we infer from the end of the passage
A．Behind bad luck comes good luck.
B．A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
C．There is still a long way to go before a laser can really work.
D．For scientists, working together is better than working alone.
Passage 8
（2024·黑龙江大庆·二模）Robert Swan wanted to be an adventurer (冒险家) when he was 11. He wanted to become the first person to walk to both the North Pole and the South Pole (南极和北极). People told him he was crazy, but he never gave up his dream.

Passage 10
（2024·山东泰安·二模）
Scientists have developed a way to read minds, translating unspoken thoughts into written words. It’s the first time it’s been done without having to put anything into the brain. They used artificial intelligence (AI) (人工智能). It is the name given to a computer system that is able to “think” for itself and carry out tasks that usually require human intelligence.
Scientists used a special scanner (扫描器). The machine can see where blood runs, which shows the parts of the brain that are most active. People taking part in the experiment (实验) listened to the radio for 16 hours as their brains were scanned. The AI tool learned to connect certain brain activity with words they heard. After that, each person was asked to think of a story, and the AI tool managed to pick up these thoughts as they happened.
The results had about a 50% accuracy rate (准确率), although the AI found it hard to work out the meaning of pronouns, such as he or she, her or him. For example, it turned “I don’t have my driver’s license yet” into “She has not even started to learn to drive yet.” It could usually understand the meaning of what someone was thinking rather than the exact words. The AI was personalized, so when it had learned from one person but it was tested on another, it couldn’t understand their thoughts.
The scientists, who have been working on the technology for 15 years, say they understand the risks of it being used badly. Scientist Jerry Tang told a newspaper, “We want to make sure people only use these types of technologies when they want to, and that it helps them.”The scientists hope it will help people with certain medical conditions, who are still awake but have lost the ability to speak, to communicate once again.
36．What is the main purpose of paragraph 2
A．To describe the process of the experiment. B．To explain the results of the experiment.
C．To offer some opinions about the experiment. D．To list the difficulties with the experiment.
37．What does the example in paragraph 3 show
A．The AI is much cleverer than people.
B．The AI didn’t start the work as it was ordered.
C．The AI couldn’t understand the exact words of what people thought.
D．The AI will be well developed according to people’s special needs.
38．What can we learn from the text
A．It is not difficult to take AI under control.
B．AI will not be used in a proper way in the future.
C．AI is so wise that it can treat people with medical problems.
D．It’s expected that AI will help those speechless exchange ideas.
39．What can be the best title for the text
A．High Risks of Using AI B．Mind-Reading Development
C．Importance of Human Brain D．Ways of Improving Technology
Passage 11
（2024·黑龙江大庆·二模）The Internet is very popular with young people nowadays. They think that the Internet has brought them a number of advantages. In my opinion, the Internet affects young people not only in a positive way, but also in a negative way.
There is no doubt that the Internet has a good effect on widening young people’s knowledge. It keeps everyone knowledgeable. In just a few minutes each day people can get the most recent news. Moreover, more and more young people are using the Internet to look for information to help them in their work or studies. They can also learn a lot about culture and history on the Internet.
On the other hand, the Internet also has negative influences on young people. Firstly, the overuse of computers can bring in bad physical side-effects. It will do harm to people’s eyes to sit in front of a computer for a long time without a break. Other health problems, such as stomachache, headache and back pain, also happen quite easily to those who spend too much time on computers. Furthermore, the Internet seems to separate young people from the real world. Although they are usually familiar with the current affairs, their face-to-face communication skills are very poor. They communicate with other people through Yahoo, My space and MSN instead of going out with their family or meeting friends. Therefore, young people can show a lack of common sense in relationships or have difficulty communicating in the real world. In addition, a lot of websites are not good for teenagers. For example, some websites include unhealthy videos that should be deleted.
In conclusion, besides helping young people to increase their knowledge, the Internet may also bring in some bad results. While the benefits seem to fill all the need, the disadvantages also
need the same attention. The young really need guidance on how to use the Internet.
40．The passage is probably taken from ________.
A．a history book B．a magazine C．a novel D．a dictionary
41．What is the right structure of the passage
A．B． C． D．
42．What can we infer according to the passage
A．The use of the Internet among teenagers should be stopped.
B．The Internet has more disadvantages than advantages.
C．More attention should be paid to the bad effects of the Internet.
D．All the information on the Internet is good for students.
43．What’s the best title for the passage
A．The Internet Affects People Positively
B．The Negative Effects of the Internet
C．The Influence of the Internet on the Young
D．The Internet as the Most Effective Communication Means
Passage 12
（2024·山西忻州·二模）Simple relationships; enjoying personal space; “self-love”—these are among the new trends (趋势) reshaping young Chinese nowadays. A survey of more than 3,800 people, mostly between the ages of 18 and 27, offers us an understanding of the changing choices of young people in a technology-driven world. Nowadays, here are some of the trends likely to shape the social, shopping and lifestyle choices of young Chinese.
The first trend is zero-sugar networking. This term, also known as dazi, means a kind of simple relationship without any emotional burdens (情感负担). It is a friendship between people who have common interests. For example, if people don’t want to eat alone, they will go out with their “meal friends”. The young prefer this kind of relationship today because it doesn’t need much time and emotion, and they can spend more time on other important things.
The second one is to have a close connection with chatbots (聊天机器人). AI technology is
creating new lifestyles, increasingly influencing the social lives of young Chinese. More and more young people bond (建立紧密联系) with bots. This has been driven by the feeling of loneliness. With the development of technology, more AI technologies are likely to become more popular in 2024.
The last one is to love yourself. Though it is quite against the traditional Chinese value of prioritizing the needs of others, this reflects the change in the opinions of young Chinese. It shows that young Chinese are taking control of their own lives, putting themselves first, looking after their bodies and encouraging themselves to accept their weaknesses.
44．Who was most likely to take part in the survey
A．A 16-year-old boy. B．A 20-year-old student. C．A 29-year-old woman.
45．Why do young people prefer zero-sugar networking
A．Because they enjoy having meals with some new friends.
B．Because this kind of relationship is developed by their common interests.
C．Because it can help them save time to pay attention to other important things.
46．What can we infer (推断) from Paragraph 3
A．More and more young people feel lonely.
B．Most of young people like to use AI technologies.
C．Young people’s lifestyles are completely changed by AI.
47．What does the underlined word “prioritizing” mean in Chinese
A．反馈 B．优先 C．关注
48．What does the passage mainly talk about
A．The reason why these new trends happen nowadays.
B．The advantages of having these new trends for young people.
C．New trends that are changing the way young people live and think.
Passage 13
（2024·山东济南·二模）Human activity is changing the surface and temperature of our planet. But new research shows that it is also changing the sound of the earth’s oceans and seas. Scientists say these changes influence many sea animals—from very small fish to huge whales.
Sound travels very far underwater. For fish, sound is probably a better way to sense their environment than light. They use sounds to communicate with each other. Sounds also help some
ocean animals to find food and avoid their hunters (猎人). Many ocean animals use sounds to find good places to give birth. Sounds help fish and other sea animals survive (生存).
However, increased noise from humans is making it harder for these animals to hear each other. The noise comes from shipping traffic, underwater oil and gas exploration (爆炸), and other noisy human activity. For many sea animals, their efforts to communicate are being masked (被掩盖) by sounds that humans have introduced. Experts explain the word “masking”, which happens when one or more noises in the water block (阻截) sound important to an ocean animal’s life.
The Red Sea is one of the world’s most important shipping passages (航道). It is full of large ships traveling to Asia, Europe, and Africa. Some fish and other animals now avoid the noisiest areas. Also, the total number of sea animals has gone down by about half since 1970. In some parts of the ocean, scientists now record fewer animals singing and calling than in the past.
Experts say that influence of noise on sea animals are not well understood. However, some studies suggest that noise may cause hearing loss (丧失). The stress from human noise might also influence the immune (免疫) system—an animal’s natural defense system. Many sea animals are showing higher levels of stress because of noise.
When people think of threats (威胁) facing the ocean, we often think of climate (气候) change, plastics, and overfishing. But noise pollution is another necessary thing we need to be monitoring. When it comes to something humans can do for the ocean, we need to think about how to make it quieter. Sound pollution may be easier to deal with than other ocean threats. You can reduce or turn off sound right away. It’s not like plastics or climate change, which are much harder to undo.
49．According to the text, sounds can help sea animals in many ways except ________.
A．communicating with each other B．searching for something to eat
C．getting away from their hunters D．blocking the sunshine outside
50．Why is the Red Sea mentioned in the text
A．To introduce an important shipping passages.
B．To explain why there are so many large ships.
C．To report the total number of sea animals alive.
D．To give an example of the influence of human noise.
51．What can you know from the text
A．Noise may cause the hearing loss of humans.
B．Noise does more harm to sea animals than we realize.
C．Plastic pollution is the biggest threat facing oceans and seas.
D．Fish sense their environment better through light than sound.
52．What does the underlined word “undo” mean in the last paragraph
A．Put in the effort. B．Promise the result.
C．Forget the influence. D．Cancel the influence.
53．Which of the following would be the best title (标题)
A．Why Are Ocean Animals So Noisy B．Helpful Ways to Save Ocean Animals.
C．Humans Are Making Oceans Too Noisy. D．Which Threat to Oceans Is the Biggest
Passage 14
（2024·甘肃武威·三模）Zhu Yanjun is a migrant worker from northwest China’s Gansu Province. Recently the 50-year-old took part in the 2023 Chinese Poem Competition and won second place in the final.
Zhu was born in a family of farmers. As a young boy, Zhu would help his father do farm work after finishing classes. In 1983, as a first-grader in primary school, he met poetry for the first time in a Chinese class. Since then, he has been in love with poems. After noticing Zhu’s interest, his father spared some money from the family’s living costs to buy him poetry collections. During junior high school, some of his classmates dropped out of school and moved to other cities to look for jobs. Zhu listened to them talking about the outside world during holidays. “I also wanted to leave my hometown to see the world.” he said.
After graduating from junior high school in 1992, Zhu stopped his schooling. He began to work as a migrant worker. But he did not stop reading poems.
In the past years, Zhu has worked in seven cities in China. Whenever he arrives in a city, he first visits the bookstores and libraries there.

Passage 18
（2024·安徽池州·三模）Are you looking forward to next year’s Olympic Games Paris
2024 promises to be “green”. Its government has found a new way of going green: In some of the stadiums in Denis, about 11,000 seats are made from recycled plastic.
The seats were produced by recycling company Lemon Tri. They collected plastic waste and turned it into small pieces. These pieces were then mixed together and heated. After that, they were produced into black or white plastic. These plastic were then cut and made into seats.
Are these seats of good quality A number of tests have been carried out on them. The result satisfied everyone. People will be able to sit safely in the chairs and enjoy the excitement of the game!
The seats were made from about 100 tons of plastic waste. About 80 percent of the plastic came from local recycling cans. Local schools also collected about 5,000,000 colored cola bottles and they were used in the making of the seats.
Augustin Jaclin, the CEO of Lemon Tri, said, “Our kids put their bottles into the rubbish cans. Next year, they will sit on the seats made from these bottles. This will tell them to recycle more in the future!”

Passage 19
（2024·北京·一模）Many people have taken part into lots of virtual (虚拟的) meetings these years. Some research shows this might not impact workplace productivity to any great degree. A new study, though, suggests otherwise.
In the study, 602 participants were paired and asked to come up with creative uses for a product. They were also selected to work together either in person or virtually. The pairs were
then ranked by their total number of ideas, as well as those ideas’ degree of creativity, virtual pairs came up with significantly fewer ideas, while face-to-face interaction gave more creative ideas. The findings could stiffen employers’ determination to urge or require their employees to come back to the office.
“We ran this experiment based on feedback from companies that it was harder to innovate (创新) with remote workers,” said lead researcher Melanie Brucks. “Unlike other forms of virtual communication, videoconferencing copies the in-person experience quite well, so I was surprised when we found meaningful differences between in-person and video interaction for idea generation.”
When some objects were placed in both the virtual and physical rooms, the virtual pairs of participants spent more time looking directly at each other rather than looking around the room and taking in the entire scene. Eyeing one’s whole environment and noticing the objects were closely connected with increased idea generation. On platforms, the screen occupies our interactions. We don’t see around. “Looking away might come across as rude, so we have to look at the screen because that is the defined context of the interaction, the same way we wouldn’t walk to another room while talking to someone in person.”
Like most educators, Brucks has taught virtually in the past three years, and she did notice some benefits of the approach as well. Her students were more likely to take turns speaking and her shyer students spoke up more often, for her students felt “freer” and more creative when asked to do so. And this may be sound advice for the workplace.
Virtual teamwork can’t replace face-to-face teamwork. Idea selection proficiency (能力) is only valuable if you have strong options to select from, and face-to-face teams are the best means to generate winning options. Perhaps the workplace will find a sweet spot in the middle that balances working from both home and office.
73．What does the underlined word “stiffen” in Paragraph 2 most probably mean
A．Shake. B．Reconsider.
C．Challenge. D．Strengthen.
74．At first, lead researcher Melanie Brucks might think that ________.
A．videoconferencing can’t compare with in-person communication
B．participants should make eye contact in an online meeting
C．the feedback from companies seems questionable
D．creative ideas may emerge from casual thoughts
75．What can we learn about Brucks’ class
A．Her students have less anxiety by speaking up.
B．Her students progressed in focusing attention.
C．Her students took advantage of virtual learning.
D．Her students showed their talent for public speaking.
76．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage
A．Interacting Virtually Impacts Working Participation
B．Maintaining Teamwork Improves Idea Generation
C．Grouping Properly Increases Productivity
D．Brainstorming Online Limits Creativity
Passage 20
（2024·河北承德·二模）The Earth we live in is facing a big challenge. The air and water have been polluted seriously. Resources (资源), specially water resources are also gradually becoming less and less. Therefore, let’s take action together to protect the beautiful blue planet.
What is World Water Day
People, animals and plants all depend on water. This day is about encouraging people to take action to fight the world water crisis (危机). The main focus of this day is to help achieve the goal of having clean water for everyone by 2030.
The water crisis situation
Although over 70% of the Earth’s surface is covered by water, the freshwater resurces for human use are not abundant.

education. Many children have to walk far every day just to collect water for their family. Without water, people can’t keep clean, so diseases spread.
How can we help
