In 2025， Guangxi faced a serious drought.4 No one in Guangxi ever imagined facing such a terrible drought. It changed our green， rainy home into a dry and dead place. From the beginning of November 2024 to May 2025， there was hardly any heavy rain here.1 Only small rains fell on the ground sometimes. This was the lowest since 1961.
　▲　 A weather event called La Ni a sent strong winds from the north over Guangxi. Also， the high-pressure system kept wet air away， so it was hotter and less rainy.2
The unusual drought affected people’s drinking water and crops. Thousands of people didn’t have enough water to drink， and large areas of crops were dying. Many cities like Nanning and Guilin， along with lots of counties (县)， had drought problems. In Guigang， some small water pools even had no water left.
The government tried the best to help. They dug many new wells (井) for water and did cloud seeding (人工降雨) many times.3A、D The government used a large number of money to solve the problems， such as rebuilding farms， buying water tools3B and sending water. These made sure people had enough water until the rains (雨季) came. In June， it rained a lot， and the land turned green again.
Guangxi’s drought tells a truth： Nature is like a magic box full of surprises. Just when we think we understand it well enough， it suddenly shows us something we didn’t expect. It reminds us that no matter how much we study and prepare， nature always has its own rules and ways of working.
(　　)1.How long did the drought in Guangxi last (持续)
A.For 3 months. B.For 6 months.
C.For 7 months. D.For 9 months.
(　　)2.Which sentence should we put in “　▲　” in Paragraph 2
A.Why did this happen
B.Where can we find more water
C.What can we do during the drought
D.Who had the biggest problems during the drought
C
A
(　　)3.Which way did the government NOT use to fight against the drought
A.Doing cloud seeding.
B.Buying water tools.
C.Building more houses.
D.Digging new wells.
C
(　　)4.What is the best title for the text
A.A Story of La Ni a in Guangxi
B.A Drought in Guangxi
C.The Rainy Season in Guangxi
D.Nature Is like a Magic Box

Since it was sunny in the morning， my parents and I went to Green Hill Park today. We brought snacks and planned to have a picnic. We laughed and took many photos when we climbed the hill.

It was an unforgettable day. I also learnt to stay calm when facing dangers. (共19张PPT)

①On 9th October 2024， Hurricane (飓风) Milton hit the United States. Big storms like this are happening more often and are getting stronger. So， scientists are working hard to predict them. AI is playing an important role in this work.
②For years， scientists use computers to make models (模型) of storms. They use information from planes and satellites (人造卫星). It takes those models hours to create predictions.1
But AI models use lots of information from past storms to find patterns (模式). They can find rules that most humans can’t. And they can do this very quickly. AI models made true predictions about storms in just seconds， sometimes even days before they happened.1
③One AI program called GraphCast predicted that Hurricane Beryl would hit Texas，2 while a traditional model predicted it would hit Mexico. GraphCast was right，2 and the team behind it won an engineering prize.
④In September 2024， another AI program called EC-AIFS predicted that Hurricane Francine would hit Louisiana.2 Because it was so right， Matt Lanza， a scientist in Houston， Texas， told people in Texas that the storm wouldn’t be a problem for them. “It was really amazing，” Lanza said.
⑤Even though AI is helpful and has made significant success， it’s still not good enough. Lanza said that AI models have trouble predicting how strong a storm will be and how much rain will fall. That’s why scientists need to use AI along with other tools.3 “We’re not just letting AI make the weather reports，” he said.
(　　)1.How are AI models different from traditional models according to Paragraph 2
A.AI models are faster at creating predictions.
B.AI models need information only from satellites.
C.AI models need more information to make predictions.
D.It takes longer for AI models to give more true results.
A
(　　)2.What does the underlined word “significant” in Paragraph 5 mean
A.Very funny. B.Very similar.
C. Very common. D.Very important.
D
(　　)3.How will the future use of AI in weather prediction be
A.It won’t get any better than it is now.
B.It will be truer but still need help from humans.
C.It will do all the work and take human scientists’ place.
D.It will only be able to predict hurricanes， not other weather events.

五、阅读理解(每小题2分，共8分)
Can you believe that mice can save people’s lives Now scientists are training mice to help save trapped (受困的) people after earthquakes.
This is a part of a special scientific project (项目) called “HeroRATs”. Donna Kean， a scientist from Scotland， is working on this project.1 She trains mice to wear very small bags with cameras inside. With the help of the mice， it will be
easier for rescue (救援) teams to know what is going on in the disaster area. Also， the teams can talk with trapped people to make them less nervous and afraid.
Mice are good at moving through small spaces. They can live on anything and live in highly dangerous places. As a result， they are perfect for the searching work in earthquake areas. Mice are also intelligent. Scientists trained mice to collect information. To their surprise， it only took seven mice two
weeks to learn those skills.2 So scientists decided to train another 163 mice for other disasters.
But why not dogs Both of them have a good sense of smell but the sense of mice is better than that of dogs.3 Moreover， people can catch， feed and take care of mice much more easily.3 They learn things very fast， and they don’t get bored as easily as dogs.3 They work better and harder.
Kean was glad that the mice could learn the skills so quickly， “They are amazing! I hope they will be able to save lives in the future.”
