Artificial Intelligence, or AI, is a type of technology that makes computers and machines act smartly, just like humans. Imagine a robot that can talk to you, play games, or even help you with your homework.
That’s AI in action! AI can do many things, like recognizing (识别) faces, understanding languages, and solving problems.
One of the most amazing things about AI is that it can learn from lots of information. For example, doctors can use AI to help diagnose (诊断) illnesses by looking at medical images. AI can also drive cars safely by understanding the road and traffic rules.
AI is also used in everyday life. You might have seen AI on your phone, like a voice assistant that answers your questions or a music app that suggests songs you might like. Some people even use AI to create art or write stories.
However, AI is not perfect. It needs a lot of data (数据) and programming to work well. It also needs humans to guide it, because AI can’t think or make decisions on its own.
In the future, AI will keep getting smarter and more helpful. It will change the way we live and work, making our lives easier and more interesting.

“You always mess things up.” “What a stupid thing to do!” Have you ever said these things to yourself The inner critic (批评) is that kind of voice inside your head saying you are not good enough—it always judges (评判) you.
Inner critics develop for different kinds of reasons. The most common one is that this voice of self-doubt comes from things we heard as kids. If parents often put themselves or their children down, those hurtful words can stick. For example, if a mom talks about her weight a lot, her daughter might think the same way about her own body. Similarly, if a parent is not satisfied with the child’s grades, that child might end up giving himself up on schoolwork.
Under the inner critic lies vulnerability (脆弱), and our critics often develop as an unusual form of self-protection. Imagine coming home excited about winning a drawing competition, only to be laughed at by your elder brother. The next time you achieve something, you might be unwilling to share it—or worse, not even know your success.
The inner critic makes an effort to protect us from painful experiences. It keeps us small, shy, and always looking for ways to prevent shame and failure. As a part in need of care, the inner critic wants to be heard and befriended.
To heal (愈合) the hurt, it’s important to first realize the inner critic. When you hear a voice in your head suggesting you shouldn’t try because you’ll only fail, face it and say: “Oh, my critic is here!” Indeed, it is part of us and isn’t going away, but doing this can create some space between you and the critic.
Once you can see the inner critic bravely, you will get better from the hurt behind negative (消极的) self-talk. Parenting experts suggest getting down on the child’s level when providing support. This works for the inner critic too. You might say, “It’s okay to feel scared sometimes. There’s no need to run away from it!” or “We all make mistakes though.”
Only by befriending your inner critic can you start to heal from. the pain and fear behind its voice. It takes time and patience, but it’s worth it. Give it a try!

① From social relationships to work difficulties, Chinese people are turning to DeepSeek on different personal matters. They describe their thoughts and receive helpful ideas from the popular chatbot. As a rising choice on social media, AI therapy (疗法) is changing the way people look for mental health support. But can AI truly take the place of a human therapist
② Across the world, 45 percent of people in 2024 did not receive mental health care because of problems like cost and a short of therapists. Daniel Lowd, a professor at the University of Oregon, believes AI could help solve the short of therapy services. “If people can find some support and solutions on mental health by talking to ChatGPT or other chatbots, then I think that’s wonderful,” Lowd told Newsweek.
③ Li Yong, a doctor at the Jiangsu Province Hospital, agreed with Lowd, saying that AI meets people’s needs for mental support in a way. By using simple mental therapy, DeepSeek can help with small mental problems through comforting replies, Li told Shanghai Observer.
④ However, he points out that AI cannot completely take the place of doctors because of the human touch which is important for mental therapy. Therapists develop a deeper understanding of people’s feelings through communications, which allows them to offer more therapy plans.
⑤ The use of AI in mental therapy also raises worries over its reliability (可靠性).”AI chatbots will give answers as therapists, but without any of the training from a human expert or a tested app,” Richard Lachman, a professor at Toronto Metropolitan University, told Newsweek.
⑥ Experts believe the key to believable AI therapy, first of all, lies in proper government regulation (监管). Wysa, for example, is a mental health app that offers therapy replies by working with an AI chatbot. As AI becomes more a part of our lives, understanding its work on humans’ mental feelings means finding a way between what’s helpful and what’s dangerous, Euronews reported.
32．________ is getting popularity among people in China according to Paragraph One.
A．Medicine B．AI mental treatment
C．Health care D．Human therapy
33．What can we infer from the passage
A．The ill failed to get medical treatment because of a short of money.
B．The hospitals may try doctor-AI service to better advise patients.
C．The AI chatbots haven’t gone through trainings or professional tests.
D．The Chinese government will make laws against online Af therapy.
34．Which of the following shows the structure of this article
A． B． C． D．
35．Which of the following may the writer write about in the next paragraph
A．The spread of Wysa app into China after its success in the UK.
B．Disagreements from UK’s professors on spreading Af therapy.
C．Another possible solution to develop believable AI therapy.

The police have many ways of catching criminals. One way of catching them is by fingerprinting (指纹). Fingerprinting is the study of the patterns on our fingertips. We have known that no two fingerprints are exactly the same for hundreds of years. However, it wasn’t until 1910 that the first criminal in the USA was convicted (被判有罪) using fingerprint evidence.
Early on the morning of September 19, 1910, Hiller’s wife noticed that the light which they usually left on was off. When Hiller went to find out what was happening, he saw a stranger at the top of the stairs. The stranger had broken in and wanted to steal something. Hiller and the stranger started to fight, but the stranger had a gun. He shot Hiller twice and ran away.
Hiller’s wife ran to Hiller when she heard the gunshots but found him dead. So she called the police. Soon after, the police caught Thomas Jennings, not far from the Hillers’ house.
The only problem was that no one saw the criminal. However, the police had started using fingerprinting at that time. According to Hiller’s wife, only several hours before Hiller’s death, he had painted some wood near the kitchen window. Then the police checked the wood completely and found some fingerprints in the wet paint.
During the trial (审判), the police proved that the fingerprints belonged to Jennings, and he was convicted of Hiller’s murder. Since then, fingerprinting has helped in the conviction of hundreds of thousands of criminals.
28．What helped the police convict the murderer of Hiller
A． B． C． D．
29．Which paragraph shows how Hiller was killed
A．Paragraph 1. B．Paragraph 2. C．Paragraph 3. D．Paragraph 4.

A．③→④→①→⑤→⑥→② B．③→④→⑤→①→②→⑥

①Have you heard of mourning (悼念) technology
②Last night is really unusual for me. I couldn’t imagine I could speak to my parents. And for a moment I even forgot I wasn’t really speaking to real them, just their virtual images (虚拟形象). In fact, both of my parents are still alive and well. But the virtual images could help me understand the technology, which is an APP created by a company called Here After AI.
③Mourning technology can let you communicate with the people you have loved but lost. This used to appear in science fiction. But now it has come into our real life. Maybe it sounds some scary, but it’s not difficult to see that more and more people might turn to the virtual images for comfort.
④However, there is still something imperfect. These virtual images are just facades (表象), but in fact they don’t know anything about you. Anyone who talks to them can get almost the same answer. The biggest problem with the technology is that you can’t create a person who is only right for you.
⑤A virtual image that can hold more conversations with you helps make you feel connected to the person you loved but lost. But a sad person needs to know that only a small part of a person can be captured (捕捉) by these images instead of replacing healthy, normal human relationships.
⑥At the same time this also brings other risks when creating a virtual image, such as moral (道德) problems. Some may think that it’s less important to a person who is already dead. But what if the person isn’t actually dead Should he or she have a say, too
⑦If virtual images really come fully into our lives, there’s no doubt that we need new rules about what we leave online. But if we deal with the possibility of misusing virtual images before, rather than after, they are widely used, our lives will be better.
⑧Luckily, I still have the valuable chance to spend more time with my father and mother, face to face, without technology.
32．What does the write think of mourning technology
A．He thinks it has become a perfect technology.
B．He doesn’t think it should be used in our life.
C．He thinks it can meet the needs of some people.
D．He can use it to communicate with his parents better.

B．Value the ones we love when they are still alive.
C．The progress of technology is faster than imagined.
D．We can keep mourning technology safe by making new rules.

35．Which of the following shows the structure of this passage
A． B． C． D．
【答案】32．C 33．B 34．D 35．A
【导语】本文主要介绍了悼念技术，包括其功能、存在的不足、带来的风险以及作者对它的看法。
32．推理判断题。根据“Mourning technology can let you communicate with the people you have loved but lost. Maybe it sounds some scary, but it’s not difficult to see that more and more people might turn to the virtual images for comfort.”可知，作者认为悼念技术能让人与逝去的所爱之人交流，且越来越多的人可能会借助虚拟形象寻求安慰，说明作者觉得它能满足一些人的需求。故选C。
33．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Luckily, I still have the valuable chance to spend more time with my father and mother, face to face, without technology.”可知，作者庆幸自己还有机会在不借助技术的情况下，面对面地与父母相处，由此可推断作者从这次经历中得到的感悟是要珍惜还在世的所爱之人。故选B。
34．细节理解题。根据“it’s not difficult to see that more and more people might turn to the virtual images for comfort.”可知选项A原文中有体现；根据“The biggest problem with the technology is that you can’t create a person who is only right for you.”以及“only a small part of a person can be captured by these images”可知选项B原文中有体现；根据“But what if the person isn’t actually dead Should he or she have a say, too ”可知选项C原文中有体现；文中未提及悼念技术可能会损害在世者的利益，选项D未被提及。故选D。
35．篇章结构题。文章第①段引出悼念技术这一话题；第②③段介绍了悼念技术的功能，即可以让人与逝去的所爱之人交流；第④⑤⑥段指出悼念技术存在的不足和带来的风险；第⑦⑧段是作者对悼念技术的看法和感悟。所以文章结构是①引出话题，②③介绍技术功能，④⑤⑥阐述问题，⑦⑧表达看法，A 选项结构符合。故选A。

In Hechuan District of Chongqing lies Diaoyu City, a special place with a great story, Diaoyu City was built during the Southern Song Dynasty (朝代). It is famous because the people there were very brave and changed history.
There are three rivers around Diaovu City: the Jialing River, the Qujiang River, and the Fujiang River. Diaoyu City is on a high mountain which rises about 400 meters high, and its sides are very steep (陡峭). This made Diaoyu City very strong and hard to attack. Therefore, it was a key military (军事) place which played an important role in historical battles (战斗), especially during the long fighting against the Mongol (蒙古) army from 1243 to 1279.
The Mongols were very strong, but the people of Diaoyu City were brave and united. They fought for 36 years to protect their home and never gave up.

Finally, a historic turning point came in 1259 when M ngke Khan, the Mongol leader, died during the battle outside Diaoyu City. Because of this, the Mongol army had to go back.
The people of Diaoyu City showed that even a small place can do great things if people work together and never give up. And the winning of Diaoyu City also helped stop the Mongols from attacking more places around the world, which had a great influence on the world. Today, visitors come to see the ancient walls, gates, and buildings and admire the bravery of the people that changed the course of history.

When I got to the party, I saw lots of other ghosts. It was like a sea of white sheets (床单). I felt a little less nervous when I saw that. I could hide among them easily.
We played games like bobbing (快速地上下移动) for apples and pin the tail on the donkey. I was really good at bobbing for apples. I won three times in a row! “Well done, August!” Everyone cheered for me, and I felt like I was just like everyone else.
We also played a game to guess who was who under the costumes. It was so much fun! I guessed a few people right, and they guessed me too. It was cool to see how well we all knew each other, even with our faces hidden.
But the best part was the costume competition. I thought I would win because my ghost costume was so simple and clever. But then I saw Jack Will dressed as a robot. His costume was amazing! It had flashing lights and everything. I knew I didn’t stand a chance.
Jack won the competition. Everyone clapped and cheered for him. I felt a little disappointed, but Jack came over and said, “You did great too, August. Your ghost costume was really cool.” I smiled and thanked him.

①In the story Snow White, the queen decides to kill Snow White with an apple with deadly poison (毒药). Thanks to some helpful dwarfs and a handsome prince, Snow White recovers, and everyone lives happily ever after.
②But the queen didn’t need to go to all that trouble. In fact, apples—along with many common fruits we eat—are already poisonous!
③Apple trees belong to a plant family. This group also includes peaches and cherries. The seeds (种子) and pits (核) of all these fruits have a chemical called amygdalin (苦杏仁苷). Inside an animal’s stomach, amygdalin turns into a strong poison called cyanide (氰化物). Cyanide can make people and animals very sick, or even kill them.
④However, don’t worry if you eat a few apple seeds by chance. Each seed has only a little poison. You’d have to eat a large bowl of seeds to feel any effect. Bes des, you’d need to chew (咀嚼) them well—the hard, shiny coating of apple seeds keeps the poison locked inside.
⑤Uneaten seeds usually pass right through and come out whole in your waste. But cows and other animals often chew them up along with the fruit, so they can get sick from eating apples and peaches that fall to the ground.
⑥Why would a tree make poisoned seeds To stop animals from eating the seeds, amygdalin tastes terrible. It’s also found in leaves and other parts of fruit trees. If a cow chews on apple leaves, it experiences an awful taste and an upset stomach. So animals soon learn to leave those trees alone. Thanks, amygdalin!
⑦Want to try it You can bite (咬) into an apple seed, and you’ll notice an awful taste. That’s the amygdalin. The apple tree doesn’t want you to chew up its seeds. It wants you to spit (吐) them out, so they can grow into new trees.
⑧Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who’s the cleverest fruit of all
32．Why does the author mention the story of Snow White in Paragraph 1
A．To compare fairy tales with science facts. B．To question the queen’s actions.
C．To catch readers’ interest and introduce the topic. D．To explain why apples are special.
33．Which of the following can match the information in Paragraph 3
A． B．
C． D．
34．What does the underlined word “them” refer to
A．Fruits. B．Apples. C．Leaves. D．Apple seeds.

34．词意猜测题。根据后文句子“The hard, shiny coating of apple seeds keeps the poison locked inside.”苹果种子坚硬、光滑的外壳将毒素锁在内部。得出人类必须咀嚼苹果种子才会中毒，因此这里的“them”指代的是“apple seeds”，即苹果种子。故选D。
35．篇章结构题。第1段：通过故事引入苹果种子的毒性话题，可概括为story start。第2-5段都与苹果种子毒性事实相关，其中第二段为总述，涵盖3，4，5段；3段原理单独成一个层次，4，5段分类讨论，可以并列成一个层次。可以概括为poison facts。6，7段都与产生毒素原因相关，可以合在一起概括为trees’ purpose。第8段：以《白雪公主》中的魔镜台词结束，暗示苹果可能是最聪明的水果，可以概括为humorous ending。故选B。

①The drum has existed in Chinese culture for thousands of years and has a deep meaning which is more than a kind of musical instrument.
②The drum was mentioned in Chinese history in the Pottery Age (陶器时代). The Zhou Dynasty set up the drum music organization that was responsible for the management of officers known as “drum men” and developed a complete drum music system. From then on, drums came to be used in ancient Chinese practices.
③In ancient China, agriculture (农业) was the main form of production and drums were considered important for a good harvest. Since the sound of drums echoes that of thunder (雷), it was believed that playing drums could attract rain. So the instrument was used to ask for good weather and to “communicate” with them.
④Drums also played a part in the war. The drum’s sound could go very far while increasing fear in the heart of the enemies. So the drum was used as a military inspiration for a long time.
⑤In the Tang and Song Dynasties, the society was developing fast and drums were widely used. The national band, drama, folk art, song and dance, boat racing, lion dance, festival gathering and labor competition were all together with the beats of drums. The sound of drums means celebrations, filling hearts with joy.
⑥Different types of Chinese drums exist today. For example, “Taiping Drum” is used to express hope for peace and prosperity (繁荣) while “Ansai Waist Drum” is meant to show the spirit and the heroic character of farmers in Northwest China.
⑦In a word, drum culture reflects the development of Chinese society. For thousands of years, Chinese people have always been expecting peace and satisfaction.

Electrical devices (电子仪器) could soon use power made by human energy. Scientists say they have developed an experimental device that produces electricity from the physical movement of a person walking.
British scientist Max Donelan and other scientists in Canada and the United States developed the device. The device connects to a person’s knee. As the person walks, the device captures (捕捉) energy each time the person slows down. To do this, the device helps with the slowing down movement of the leg. The movements of the walking person push parts of a small machine that produces electricity. Using the device, an adult walking quickly could produce thirteen watts of electricity in just a minute. Donelan says walking at that speed could produce enough power to operate a laptop computer for 6 minutes.
▲ Developers say it could help people who work in areas without electricity to operate small computers. The device could also be used in hospitals to operate heart pacemakers (起搏器) . It could even be used to assist in the movement of robotic arms and legs.
The experimental version (版本) of the device weighs about 1.5 kilograms, but it is too costly for most people to buy. But the researchers hope to make a lighter, less expensive version. An improved version should be ready in one year. The developers hope the device will one day help developing countries. Nearly 25 percent of people around the world live without electric power.
32．With the device, an adult walking fast could produce ________ watts of electricity in just one minute.

Artificial Intelligence, or AI, is a type of technology that makes computers and machines act smartly, just like humans. Imagine a robot that can talk to you, play games, or even help you with your homework.
That’s AI in action! AI can do many things, like recognizing (识别) faces, understanding languages, and solving problems.
One of the most amazing things about AI is that it can learn from lots of information. For example, doctors can use AI to help diagnose (诊断) illnesses by looking at medical images. AI can also drive cars safely by understanding the road and traffic rules.
AI is also used in everyday life. You might have seen AI on your phone, like a voice assistant that answers your questions or a music app that suggests songs you might like. Some people even use AI to create art or write stories.
However, AI is not perfect. It needs a lot of data (数据) and programming to work well. It also needs humans to guide it, because AI can’t think or make decisions on its own.
In the future, AI will keep getting smarter and more helpful. It will change the way we live and work, making our lives easier and more interesting.
24．What does AI stand for
A．Advanced Information. B．Automatic Interaction. C．Artificial Intelligence. D．Artificial Invention.

When do you become an adult (成年人) The answers are different from country to country. In modern China, adulthood for both boys and girls starts at the age of 18. By the time most people reach 18, they have finished high school and are ready for university. So a person’s 18th birthday often means a celebration of both adulthood and the start of college life.
Did children in ancient China become adults at 18 In fact, boys in ancient China became adults at 20 and girls at 15. And there was a ceremony to celebrate this time. After the ceremony, a young person could be called an “adult”.
For girls, the ceremony was called Ji Li. “Ji” is a kind of hairpin (发夹). In ancient times, only girls from rich families could have this ceremony. It was simple and didn’t take much time. Before the ceremony, a girl would tie her hair on the top of her head. At the ceremony, a woman in the family would put a hairpin on a girl’s hair. It meant she was now an adult. After the ceremony, she needed to learn a lot, like the right way to speak and dress.
For boys, the ceremony was called Guan Li. ▲ Before the ceremony, a boy’s family often chose a lucky day and invited many guests. On that day, the boy needed to dress up. The father would wash hands and put three hats on the boy’s head, one by one. Then the boy would change into another set of clothes to go with the color of the hats.

“How strange!” he thought. “How did it get in my throat ”
When he got home, he told his wife about it. His wife agreed that this was very strange. She also promised she wouldn’t say a word. Or her husband would be the talk in the town!
When she went outside, their neighbour waved, “Have you heard any news today ”
“My husband was walking home and…you won’t believe it…some heron feathers came out of his mouth! But you must promise not to tell anyone!” replied the teacher’s wife.
The neighbour then went to the shop to buy some vegetables. He told the shopkeeper who loved to gossip (说三道四) all about what was going on in the town.
“You know what,” said the neighbour, “Ravi the schoolteacher was giving a lesson today…and a whole heron suddenly came out of his mouth. ▲ ”
Then the cook came into the shop. “Did you hear about that ” the shopkeeper said in a low voice, “Ravi the schoolteacher was buying pencils in the village shop—and suddenly a lot of herons flew out of his mouth! Ssh, don’t tell others!”
The shopkeeper’s little boy heard this. He ran outside to tell his friends. Soon, the rumors (谣言) had spread throughout the town!
When Ravi walked into the classroom the next morning, all his pupils were looking at him quietly—it was very unusual! Even more strangely, their parents were looking at him through the windows too.
“Why are you all looking at me like that ” he asked.
“We heard that yesterday a heron flew out of your mouth, and some other kinds of birds too. And a river of water with fish of all kinds in it! We want to see you do it again!” A boy spoke up.

“You always mess things up.” “What a stupid thing to do!” Have you ever said these things to yourself The inner critic (批评) is that kind of voice inside your head saying you are not good enough—it always judges (评判) you.
Inner critics develop for different kinds of reasons. The most common one is that this voice of self-doubt comes from things we heard as kids. If parents often put themselves or their children down, those hurtful words can stick. For example, if a mom talks about her weight a lot, her daughter might think the same way about her own body. Similarly, if a parent is not satisfied with the child’s grades, that child might end up giving himself up on schoolwork.
Under the inner critic lies vulnerability (脆弱), and our critics often develop as an unusual form of self-protection. Imagine coming home excited about winning a drawing competition, only to be laughed at by your elder brother. The next time you achieve something, you might be unwilling to share it—or worse, not even know your success.
The inner critic makes an effort to protect us from painful experiences. It keeps us small, shy, and always looking for ways to prevent shame and failure. As a part in need of care, the inner critic wants to be heard and befriended.
To heal (愈合) the hurt, it’s important to first realize the inner critic. When you hear a voice in your head suggesting you shouldn’t try because you’ll only fail, face it and say: “Oh, my critic is here!” Indeed, it is part of us and isn’t going away, but doing this can create some space between you and the critic.
Once you can see the inner critic bravely, you will get better from the hurt behind negative (消极的) self-talk. Parenting experts suggest getting down on the child’s level when providing support. This works for the inner critic too. You might say, “It’s okay to feel scared sometimes. There’s no need to run away from it!” or “We all make mistakes though.”
Only by befriending your inner critic can you start to heal from. the pain and fear behind its voice. It takes time and patience, but it’s worth it. Give it a try!

B．The inner critic actually looks for understanding and support.

① From social relationships to work difficulties, Chinese people are turning to DeepSeek on different personal matters. They describe their thoughts and receive helpful ideas from the popular chatbot. As a rising choice on social media, AI therapy (疗法) is changing the way people look for mental health support. But can AI truly take the place of a human therapist
② Across the world, 45 percent of people in 2024 did not receive mental health care because of problems like cost and a short of therapists. Daniel Lowd, a professor at the University of Oregon, believes AI could help solve the short of therapy services. “If people can find some support and solutions on mental health by talking to ChatGPT or other chatbots, then I think that’s wonderful,” Lowd told Newsweek.
③ Li Yong, a doctor at the Jiangsu Province Hospital, agreed with Lowd, saying that AI meets people’s needs for mental support in a way. By using simple mental therapy, DeepSeek can help with small mental problems through comforting replies, Li told Shanghai Observer.
④ However, he points out that AI cannot completely take the place of doctors because of the human touch which is important for mental therapy. Therapists develop a deeper understanding of people’s feelings through communications, which allows them to offer more therapy plans.
⑤ The use of AI in mental therapy also raises worries over its reliability (可靠性).”AI chatbots will give answers as therapists, but without any of the training from a human expert or a tested app,” Richard Lachman, a professor at Toronto Metropolitan University, told Newsweek.
⑥ Experts believe the key to believable AI therapy, first of all, lies in proper government regulation (监管). Wysa, for example, is a mental health app that offers therapy replies by working with an AI chatbot. As AI becomes more a part of our lives, understanding its work on humans’ mental feelings means finding a way between what’s helpful and what’s dangerous, Euronews reported.
32．________ is getting popularity among people in China according to Paragraph One.
A．Medicine B．AI mental treatment
C．Health care D．Human therapy
33．What can we infer from the passage
A．The ill failed to get medical treatment because of a short of money.
B．The hospitals may try doctor-AI service to better advise patients.
C．The AI chatbots haven’t gone through trainings or professional tests.
D．The Chinese government will make laws against online Af therapy.
34．Which of the following shows the structure of this article
A． B． C． D．
35．Which of the following may the writer write about in the next paragraph
A．The spread of Wysa app into China after its success in the UK.
B．Disagreements from UK’s professors on spreading Af therapy.
C．Another possible solution to develop believable AI therapy.
D．Projects from AI-chatbot producers against government punishments.

The police have many ways of catching criminals. One way of catching them is by fingerprinting (指纹). Fingerprinting is the study of the patterns on our fingertips. We have known that no two fingerprints are exactly the same for hundreds of years. However, it wasn’t until 1910 that the first criminal in the USA was convicted (被判有罪) using fingerprint evidence.
Early on the morning of September 19, 1910, Hiller’s wife noticed that the light which they usually left on was off. When Hiller went to find out what was happening, he saw a stranger at the top of the stairs. The stranger had broken in and wanted to steal something. Hiller and the stranger started to fight, but the stranger had a gun. He shot Hiller twice and ran away.
Hiller’s wife ran to Hiller when she heard the gunshots but found him dead. So she called the police. Soon after, the police caught Thomas Jennings, not far from the Hillers’ house.
The only problem was that no one saw the criminal. However, the police had started using fingerprinting at that time. According to Hiller’s wife, only several hours before Hiller’s death, he had painted some wood near the kitchen window. Then the police checked the wood completely and found some fingerprints in the wet paint.
During the trial (审判), the police proved that the fingerprints belonged to Jennings, and he was convicted of Hiller’s murder. Since then, fingerprinting has helped in the conviction of hundreds of thousands of criminals.

①Have you heard of mourning (悼念) technology
②Last night is really unusual for me. I couldn’t imagine I could speak to my parents. And for a moment I even forgot I wasn’t really speaking to real them, just their virtual images (虚拟形象). In fact, both of my parents are still alive and well. But the virtual images could help me understand the technology, which is an APP created by a company called Here After AI.
③Mourning technology can let you communicate with the people you have loved but lost. This used to appear in science fiction. But now it has come into our real life. Maybe it sounds some scary, but it’s not difficult to see that more and more people might turn to the virtual images for comfort.
④However, there is still something imperfect. These virtual images are just facades (表象), but in fact they don’t know anything about you. Anyone who talks to them can get almost the same answer. The biggest problem with the technology is that you can’t create a person who is only right for you.
⑤A virtual image that can hold more conversations with you helps make you feel connected to the person you loved but lost. But a sad person needs to know that only a small part of a person can be captured (捕捉) by these images instead of replacing healthy, normal human relationships.
⑥At the same time this also brings other risks when creating a virtual image, such as moral (道德) problems. Some may think that it’s less important to a person who is already dead. But what if the person isn’t actually dead Should he or she have a say, too
⑦If virtual images really come fully into our lives, there’s no doubt that we need new rules about what we leave online. But if we deal with the possibility of misusing virtual images before, rather than after, they are widely used, our lives will be better.
⑧Luckily, I still have the valuable chance to spend more time with my father and mother, face to face, without technology.

In Hechuan District of Chongqing lies Diaoyu City, a special place with a great story, Diaoyu City was built during the Southern Song Dynasty (朝代). It is famous because the people there were very brave and changed history.
There are three rivers around Diaovu City: the Jialing River, the Qujiang River, and the Fujiang River. Diaoyu City is on a high mountain which rises about 400 meters high, and its sides are very steep (陡峭). This made Diaoyu City very strong and hard to attack. Therefore, it was a key military (军事) place which played an important role in historical battles (战斗), especially during the long fighting against the Mongol (蒙古) army from 1243 to 1279.
The Mongols were very strong, but the people of Diaoyu City were brave and united. They fought for 36 years to protect their home and never gave up. In one important battle, Wang Jian, the general, led 4,600 soldiers to fight against 30,000 Mongol enemies successfully. And the local people of Diaoyu City worked tirelessly to attend to the wounded soldiers. Their close care saved hundreds of lives. Finally, a historic turning point came in 1259 when M ngke Khan, the Mongol leader, died during the battle outside Diaoyu City. Because of this, the Mongol army had to go back.
The people of Diaoyu City showed that even a small place can do great things if people work together and never give up. And the winning of Diaoyu City also helped stop the Mongols from attacking more places around the world, which had a great influence on the world. Today, visitors come to see the ancient walls, gates, and buildings and admire the bravery of the people that changed the course of history.

I had been looking forward to the school Halloween party for weeks. I spent a lot of time thinking about what to be. I finally decided on a ghost (幽灵). It was the perfect costume (服装) because it covered my whole face, and I didn’t have to worry about people staring at me.
When I got to the party, I saw lots of other ghosts. It was like a sea of white sheets (床单). I felt a little less nervous when I saw that. I could hide among them easily.
We played games like bobbing (快速地上下移动) for apples and pin the tail on the donkey. I was really good at bobbing for apples. I won three times in a row! “Well done, August!” Everyone cheered for me, and I felt like I was just like everyone else.
We also played a game to guess who was who under the costumes. It was so much fun! I guessed a few people right, and they guessed me too. It was cool to see how well we all knew each other, even with our faces hidden.
But the best part was the costume competition. I thought I would win because my ghost costume was so simple and clever. But then I saw Jack Will dressed as a robot. His costume was amazing! It had flashing lights and everything. I knew I didn’t stand a chance.
Jack won the competition. Everyone clapped and cheered for him. I felt a little disappointed, but Jack came over and said, “You did great too, August. Your ghost costume was really cool.” I smiled and thanked him.

①In the story Snow White, the queen decides to kill Snow White with an apple with deadly poison (毒药). Thanks to some helpful dwarfs and a handsome prince, Snow White recovers, and everyone lives happily ever after.
②But the queen didn’t need to go to all that trouble. In fact, apples—along with many common fruits we eat—are already poisonous!
③Apple trees belong to a plant family. This group also includes peaches and cherries. The seeds (种子) and pits (核) of all these fruits have a chemical called amygdalin (苦杏仁苷). Inside an animal’s stomach, amygdalin turns into a strong poison called cyanide (氰化物). Cyanide can make people and animals very sick, or even kill them.
④However, don’t worry if you eat a few apple seeds by chance. Each seed has only a little poison. You’d have to eat a large bowl of seeds to feel any effect. Bes des, you’d need to chew (咀嚼) them well—the hard, shiny coating of apple seeds keeps the poison locked inside.
⑤Uneaten seeds usually pass right through and come out whole in your waste. But cows and other animals often chew them up along with the fruit, so they can get sick from eating apples and peaches that fall to the ground.
⑥Why would a tree make poisoned seeds To stop animals from eating the seeds, amygdalin tastes terrible. It’s also found in leaves and other parts of fruit trees. If a cow chews on apple leaves, it experiences an awful taste and an upset stomach. So animals soon learn to leave those trees alone. Thanks, amygdalin!
⑦Want to try it You can bite (咬) into an apple seed, and you’ll notice an awful taste. That’s the amygdalin. The apple tree doesn’t want you to chew up its seeds. It wants you to spit (吐) them out, so they can grow into new trees.
⑧Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who’s the cleverest fruit of all
32．Why does the author mention the story of Snow White in Paragraph 1
A．To compare fairy tales with science facts. B．To question the queen’s actions.

①The drum has existed in Chinese culture for thousands of years and has a deep meaning which is more than a kind of musical instrument.
②The drum was mentioned in Chinese history in the Pottery Age (陶器时代). The Zhou Dynasty set up the drum music organization that was responsible for the management of officers known as “drum men” and developed a complete drum music system. From then on, drums came to be used in ancient Chinese practices.
③In ancient China, agriculture (农业) was the main form of production and drums were considered important for a good harvest. Since the sound of drums echoes that of thunder (雷), it was believed that playing drums could attract rain. So the instrument was used to ask for good weather and to “communicate” with them.
④Drums also played a part in the war. The drum’s sound could go very far while increasing fear in the heart of the enemies. So the drum was used as a military inspiration for a long time.
⑤In the Tang and Song Dynasties, the society was developing fast and drums were widely used. The national band, drama, folk art, song and dance, boat racing, lion dance, festival gathering and labor competition were all together with the beats of drums. The sound of drums means celebrations, filling hearts with joy.
⑥Different types of Chinese drums exist today. For example, “Taiping Drum” is used to express hope for peace and prosperity (繁荣) while “Ansai Waist Drum” is meant to show the spirit and the heroic character of farmers in Northwest China.
⑦In a word, drum culture reflects the development of Chinese society. For thousands of years, Chinese people have always been expecting peace and satisfaction.

Electrical devices (电子仪器) could soon use power made by human energy. Scientists say they have developed an experimental device that produces electricity from the physical movement of a person walking.
British scientist Max Donelan and other scientists in Canada and the United States developed the device. The device connects to a person’s knee. As the person walks, the device captures (捕捉) energy each time the person slows down. To do this, the device helps with the slowing down movement of the leg. The movements of the walking person push parts of a small machine that produces electricity. Using the device, an adult walking quickly could produce thirteen watts of electricity in just a minute. Donelan says walking at that speed could produce enough power to operate a laptop computer for 6 minutes.
▲ Developers say it could help people who work in areas without electricity to operate small computers. The device could also be used in hospitals to operate heart pacemakers (起搏器) . It could even be used to assist in the movement of robotic arms and legs.
The experimental version (版本) of the device weighs about 1.5 kilograms, but it is too costly for most people to buy. But the researchers hope to make a lighter, less expensive version. An improved version should be ready in one year. The developers hope the device will one day help developing countries. Nearly 25 percent of people around the world live without electric power.
32．With the device, an adult walking fast could produce ________ watts of electricity in just one minute.
A．6 B．13 C．25 D．30
33．Which of the following can be put in the ▲
A．There are several possible uses for the device.
B．There still aren’t several possible uses for the device.
C．There are similar devices in the world.
D．Where can we find these devices
34．According to the passage, we can infer (推断) that ________.
A．the knee device is less expensive but lighter
B．the device will surely help developing countries one day
C．Chinese scientists are also doing similar researches
D．scientist will do more research on such devices
35．Which of the following can be the best title for the passage
A．A New Way To Operate Heart Pacemakers B．Human Energy Will Rule The World Power
C．Device Powered By Walking Is On The Way D．A New Meaning To the Power Walking
①Have you ever thought about what’s more important, looking fashionable or feeling comfortable You might have noticed many people choosing style over comfort and some even go to extremes（极端）to follow fashion. But we should remember: being fashionable isn’t everything. It’s more important to be healthy.
②Some people believe that they need to be a certain size to look good. So, they start extreme diets（日常饮食）that are not good for their health. They might not eat meals or eat too little, which can make them feel sick. Is it a healthy way to live
③Also, many girls wear shoes with very high heels. They might think high heels make them look taller. But these shoes can actually hurt their feet and make it hard to walk comfortably, and it can increase risks of falls. Some even wear tight（紧的）clothes that influence blood circulation（循环）making it hard to breathe. Should we put fashion over comfort and physical health
④Besides, some boys and girls spend a lot of time and money changing their hair color. The material they use is usually harmful to their health. To make their hair straight or curly, they also use tools that are hot enough to burn their hair. But using these tools too often or at very high temperatures can make the hair dry or even burnt. Is it really worth it to risk our health, spending so much time and money
⑤So, let’s rethink what’s really important. Is it fashion or is it our well-being Clothes or hairstyles don’t tell us anything about a person’s character. Instead of spending a lot of time choosing clothes, we could use that time to do fun things with friends. And instead of following extreme diets, let’s eat properly and exercise regularly. Remember, your worth is not decided by your appearance, but by who you are as a person.

After a terrible disaster called the “Heavenly Tribulation (天劫),” Ne Zha and Ao Bing lost their physical (肉体的) bodies. Their souls were in great danger until Taiyi Zhenren (太乙真人), a wise old man from Chinese myth story (神话故事), saved them using a magical seven-colored lotus (莲花). However, peace did not last long.

What subject do you worry about the most at school Many students worry about math. Some students can’t sleep well the day before a math exam. Others may feel very nervous during the exam itself. But there might be a way to make the subject less stressful.
“For students who are worried about math, posture (姿势) makes a big difference,” Erik Peper, a researcher from a university told Daily Mail. That’s right—sitting up straight can help you do better in math exams.
Researchers tested 125 college students. They asked them to do a math exam while sitting in a slumped-over (趴倒的) position, or sitting up straight. After the test, 56% of the students said the exam was easier to do if they were sitting up straight.
Slumping over is a defensive (防备的) posture. It can bring out negative (消极的) memories in the body and brain. This can stop you from thinking clearly, Peper said.
Students who were not nervous about taking the math exam didn’t necessarily benefit (受益) from better posture. But they did find that doing math in a slumped-over position was more difficult, Science Daily reported.
Good posture isn’t just helpful for taking math exams. Musicians, sports players and public speakers can all benefit from it. When you feel stressed out, you can also try to sit up straight or stand tall. It can help you feel more positive (积极的) and focus better.
58．According to the passage, how do many students feel when they face math
A．Calm. B．Sleepy. C．Stressed. D．Relaxed.
59．How many students found it easier to do the math exam when sitting up straight

60．What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 6 refer to
A．Good posture. B．Taking math exams. C．Defensive posture. D．Science Daily.
61．What is the passage mainly about
A．The benefits of positive posture. B．A good way to relax in an exam.

Recently, a fashion industry event has kicked off in Beijing. The China Fashion Week A/W 2024, running from March 23 to 31, brings together more than 170 designers and brands, showing the cream of the country’s fashion talent. The designer Zhang Xiaoqi, who presented a wedding dress collection inspired (赋予灵感) by Miao culture,opened the event.
Showing the beauty of traditional Chinese wedding customs and traditional aesthetics (美学), the idea comes from the legend of “Mother Butterfly” among the Miao people.
“I learned the legend of Mother Butterfly when I was collecting materials in Guizhou and Hunan Provinces. The story is so beautiful. And I was also impressed (给……留下深刻印象) by the rich culture of the Miao people, as well as their natural talent for singing and dancing. Therefore, I decided to use these parts in my designs,” said the designer.
In fact, traditional and modern parts can work together. For this collection, Zhang has combined traditional Chinese parts with the modern fashion to show the special beauty of traditional Chinese culture. He also used traditional methods like embroidery (刺绣) to create fine patterns. Undoubtedly, using traditional parts in modern designs adds a new period to his career and sets high standards in the fashion world.

① AI (artificial intelligence 人工智能) and machine learning refer to the ability of machines to learn and act intelligently. It means they can make decisions, finish tasks, and even tell the possible future results based on what they learn from data (数据).
②AI and machine learning already play a bigger role in everyday life than you might imagine. Health care, banking, video games, every search on the Internet you make ..., all are driven by AI.
③AI is going to change almost every field of modern life. Stephen Hawking said, “Success in creating AI would be the biggest event in human history.” And Hawking added at once, “Unluckily, it might also be the last, unless we learn how to avoid the risks.”
④____▲____, especially when you consider some countries are racing to develop AI-enabled autonomous weapons (人工智能自主武器). It is also going to change and take the place of many human jobs. The same worries also come from the public. According to the survey result from Centre for the Governance of AI, 91% of the people (tend to and totally) agree that “AI is a technology that requires careful management” in Europe.
⑤But rather than agreeing with an idea of a helpless future where all human jobs are given over to robots, some people believe AI will make our working lives better. It will improve the work of humans, and new jobs will appear to take the place of the old ones.
⑥ What’s more, machines become more intelligent and they are able to finish more human tasks. Things which only belong to humans like creativity and critical (批判性的) thinking will become even more valuable in the future.
⑦Like it or not, AI is here. Maybe changing ourselves and managing it well are the best way out. Just as Benjamin Franklin once said, “When you’re finished changing, you’re finished.”

Nowadays, being famous and successful is changing quickly. Social media has become a new way for young people to become known as online influencers (网红). A recent survey showed that children would rather be online influencers than astronauts.
But is being an online influencer a good job The lifestyles we see on social media seem enticing, but under the shining appearance lie problems like not having a certain pay, the control of algorithms (算法), physical and mental health problems. Let’s take a deeper look into it.
Successful influencers may tell you that anyone can succeed in this industry. However, an expert says, “There’s a huge income gap between successful influencers and everyone else. For most people who want to be an influencer, the creative work they love to do usually ends up being unpaid work for companies.”
__________ Influencers are often controlled by computer programs called algorithms. They decide which post is shown to users and in what order. Social media platforms (平台) don’t share much information about these algorithms, but they are the one to decide who and what becomes popular on social media. This lasting fear of not being seen makes influencers feel uncertain. They are always under pressure to create new content for these platforms. If they don’t, the algorithm might “punish” them by hiding their posts or making them less visible in search results. Always being online is a big problem for influencers because it can cause mental health problems. They have to work and talk to their fans at any time of a day or night. In addition, they are scared of being judged online, which leads to mental and physical health.
Even though being an influencer seems attractive to many people, the challenges and downsides of the job are usually hidden and not easy to see to the outside world.

C．Without doubt, algorithms is a powerful technology to lead us into the future.
D．Influencers are surely more creative and better at many things than algorithms.

① Mark Zuckerberg wears a pink coat and walks the runway (伸展台). In another picture, he can be seen wearing a bright yellow colored sweater on the street. These pictures have recently gone viral (疯传的) online. They have one thing in common——they are fake (假的) but look like they are real.
