The Chinese idiom"mò shǒu chéng guī"，which means "sticking to old rules，"has a cool story behind it.Long ago，during the Warring States Period，there lived a very smart man named Mozi.He was great at making tools and knew a lot about keeping cities safe from attacks.
At the same time，there was another talented man called Gongshu Ban.He was famous for making strong war machines.One day，Gongshu Ban made new and powerful machines to attack a city.He thought he would be certain to win with these amazing tools.
Mozi didn't want the war to happen.So，he went to see Gongshu Ban and said，"Let's do a simulation on a table.You pretend（假装） to attack with your machines，and I'll try to stop you."In this test，Mozi used simple things and his clever mind.No matter how many times Gongshu Ban attacked，Mozi always found ways to protect the"city."Gongshu Ban tried nine different attacks，yet Mozi blocked each one successfully.
After failing again and again，He realized that no matter how powerful his war machines were，Mozi's wisdom was unbeatable.Finally，he had to give up his plan to attack the city.Over time，people started using "Mozi's defense"to describe those who strictly followed old methods and refused to accept new ideas，just like someone who only counts on old rules and never tries new ways.That's how the idiom was born.

In 2025，the Jiangsu Super League（SuChao）became a nationwide hit，and Changzhou's team wrote one of the most touching stories in this grassroots football event.What made their journey special was not just the final breakthrough，but the city's teamwork，the players' efforts，and the joy beyond wins and losses.
Changzhou's team faced a tough start：they lost seven of eight opening games without scoring a single goal，landing at the bottom of the league.People online jokingly called them"Ling Zhou"（Zero City） by changing the Chinese character"Chang".Instead of feeling down，the team and the city took the humor positively，naming each match a"Stroke Protection Battle"and fighting on.
The players were all ordinary people—physical education teachers，bank managers，and even high school students.With an average age of 28，they were the oldest team in SuChao.They had to balance work and training：some trained late at night after finishing their day jobs，while others adjusted their schedules with the support of their employers.Even when facing repeated failures，they never gave up.Once，an assistant（助理） coach knelt on the wet field on the rain，feeling disappointed after a missed chance，and the players always bowed to say sorry to the fans after losses.
The city of Changzhou stood firmly behind the team.On SuChao's99th day，Zhao Lianping scored in the 86th minute of the ninth round，ending a98-day period without any goals.After the victory，the city held a series of celebrations，including free public transport for two days and free parking spaces.
Foreign media praised the team's never-give-up spirit and the city's unity.Beyond the game，SuChao brought great changes to Changzhou：tourist numbers increased by 27%，and local consumption（消费） went up by over 1.5 billion yuan.More importantly，the league turned football into a bridge connecting people，making the city's spirit of perseverance known to the whole country.

For the past 50 years，the highest-paying jobs have paid attention to knowledge work-especially in science and technology.But the rapid rise of AI is beginning to change panies are already considering taking the place of certain white-collar roles with AI.This change raises an important question：Will the future economy still need as many human workers？
The shock influences not only future workers but also teachers and parents.For years，schools have focused on getting students learn some knowledge.Now，with AI's development，we need to decide which skills students truly need.
In the past，machines took over simple physical tasks.But now，AI can write，create code，and process information in ways that seem human.As a result，some beginner-level knowledge jobs may reduce.However，AI still struggles with tasks that require deep reasoning，or dealing with new situations.It cannot truly understand human feelings.
That's why"soft skills"will become more important than ever.Cooperation，emotional awareness and creative problem-solving are difficult for AI to learn.The good news is that these skills can be taught in schools together with traditional subjects such as maths and reading.
For example，teachers can use thinking exercises to help students realize their own feelings.Tasks like "Write about a time you helped someone today"or"Describe how you solved a hard problem."encourage self-awareness.
Students can also practice solving open-ended，real-world problems such as designing a social activity or discussing historical decisions.These activities help develop creative thinking and teamwork-skills that AI cannot copy.
A new challenge is that students may depend on AI to complete tasks，ignore（忽视） the learning process.But true understanding requires effort.Teachers should stress the value of slower learning-through handwriting and hands-on projects-so that students can learn key skills before using AI tools.
No one knows exactly how AI will change jobs in the future.But the most important thing schools can teach is this：Don't take time-savers instead of really learning.Skills like working with others to solve hard problems will always be important.
37.What is special about AI compared with earlier machine work？ ______
A. It can replace all human workers.
B. It can do some knowledge jobs.
C. It can finish work independently.D It can understand human feelings.
38.Why are soft skills becoming more important？ ______
A. Because they are easier to measure and test.
B. Because they can help companies save costs.
C. Because humans with them can't be replaced.
D. Because AI think it difficult to learn them.
39.According to the passage，which task would NOT encourage students' self-awareness well？ ______
A. Write down the steps to solve a hard math problem.
B. Describe how you comfort a friend who is unhappy.
C. Write about how you feel when a friend help you.
D. Retell some dialogues and texts you have learned.
40.How does the writer feel about the future of human workers？ ______
A. Worried. B. Doubtful. C. Hopeful. D. Surprised.
