Children are arriving at primary school incapable of speaking properly but able to swipe screens on devices,
while older pupils are self-diagnosing Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) because of exposure to
online content, research has found. Head teachers said that primary schools needed help handling wrong theories
because pupils and their parents were getting nearly all their news from social media.
The online world was influencing the behaviour, beliefs and concentration of pupils. Even children in England
are taught how to identify wrong theories and extremist content in media literacy lessons in the recent classes.
There is also growing pressure on the government to ban phones in schools, but even very young children are
being exposed to extreme or age-inappropriate online content at home. Rather than being supportive, parents make
the situation worse. Parents were seen as ill-equipped, often misleading their kids. Ian, a deputy head, said, “It’s
very hard because we have parents who think COVID-19 wasn’t real.”
Teachers added that access to unfiltered information online was having a significant impact on pupils’
behaviour. Other teachers said boys as young as five or six seeing content by Andrew Tate and other prejudiced
influencers tend to abuse their classmates. Teachers said they felt underprepared when it came to addressing
misinformation, fake news and illogical theories.
Another teacher said, “The mental health, particularly with children in Years 5 and 6, is being massively
affected because of what they’re seeing through these algorithms (算法), because they keep diving deeper and
deeper into it.” Amy Braier, director, said, “Teachers are willing to take on this challenge but they need support
from wider society, government and — more importantly — parents.”
4. How do teachers feel about kids’ easy access to the Internet
A. Proud. B. Worried. C. Indifferent. D. Sympathetic.
5. Who is possibly responsible for children’s exposure to wrong information online
A. Their teachers. B. The government. C. Their parents. D. The influencers.
6. How does the information affect students according to the text
A. They can’t concentrate on study. B. They acquire better language skills.
C. They gradually become mentally healthier. D. They form a better relationship with others.
7. What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A. More online time makes kids smarter. B. Teachers hesitate to solve the problem.
C. Society plays a key role in solving the problem. D. Parents should try to guide their kids well at home.
C
“Why launch a project so vast and time-consuming — the first systematic survey of major Chinese textile
(纺织品) collections worldwide ” asks Zhao Feng, former director of the China National Silk Museum situated in
Hangzhou.
Launched in 2022, the cross-border initiative aims to publish 100 scholarly volumes documenting Chinese
silks preserved in museums and research institutions in China and abroad. The 12 volumes published so far include
studies of the Palace Museum in Beijing and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, where Zhao served as
a visiting research fellow from 1997 to 1998.
“This effort not only reshapes our understanding of ancient Chinese silk civilization, but also provides a
foundation for tracing intercultural exchange through textile evidence,” he says.
One example comes from the Shanpula (Sampula) tombs in Hotan, on the southern edge of the Taklimakan
Desert in Xinjiang. The site was historically linked to the Kingdom of Khotan, a major Buddhist and trading center
first recorded in the 2nd century BC — when long-distance commerce along the Silk Road was just beginning.
The kingdom endured until its fall in the early 11th century.
Among the most revealing finds is a crimson silk fragment woven in a warp-faced compound weave and
decorated with jade discs (玉璧) and animal masks. Although unearthed in China’s western frontier, its imagery
clearly reflects the ritual and traditions of the Central Plains — modern-day Henan province. In ancient China,
jade discs were upper class objects placed in burials as symbols of a gateway to heaven — a practice especially
prominent between the 5th and 1st centuries BC. Quite a few similar cases have been found in other places.
“These silent witnesses of history should not remain hidden in museum storerooms,” Zhao says.
8. What is the purpose of writing paragraph 1
A. To doubt the necessity of the project. B. To introduce the topic of the passage.
C. To stress the difficulty of the project. D. To explain the ways of doing research.
9. What can we learn from the passage
A. Zhao Feng opposes textile exhibitions.
B. The jade discs in the tomb held the spiritual power.
C. The Kingdom of Hotan appeared in the 11th century.
D. Zhao Feng is the director of the National Silk Museum.
10. What does the underlined word “prominent” in paragraph 5 mean
A. Widespread. B. Hidden. C. Mysterious. D. Important.
11. What is the main idea of the text
A. Links between west and central plains. B. The influence of National Silk Museum.
C. The significance of global textile collections. D. Zhao Feng’s contributions to the silk museum.
D
It isn’t just humans who can live in the land of pretend messy environment, but if you organise one, you might
find that primates (灵长目动物) have more vivid imaginations than anyone expected.
Researchers from Johns Hopkins University set up a scene similar to a child’s make-believe tea party. Kanzi, a
34-year-old ape, would face a researcher across a table set up with empty jugs, cups, bowls and jars. In one
experiment, the cups and jugs were transparent and the researcher pretended to pour juice into the two cups and
then pretended to pour the imaginary juice out of one of the cups before asking the ape “Where’s the juice ” They
found that he was consistently able to point to the cup filled with imaginary juice. In a second experiment designed
to test whether Kanzi understood the juice to be imaginary, the ape was able to tell between a cup full of real juice
and the cup filled with imaginary juice, showing that he knew the cups in the first experiment were really empty. In
a third experiment, the researcher pretended to take an imaginary grape from a bowl and place it inside one of two
jars, before pretending to empty one jar. Kanzi was able to correctly pick the jar containing the imaginary grape.
The study moved the cups and jugs around.
Christopher, co-author of the study, said: “Imagination has long been seen as a critical element of what it is to
be human but the idea that it may not be exclusive to our species is really transformative. Jane Goodall discovered
that chimps make tools and that led to a change in the definition of what it means to be human and this, too, really
invites us to reconsider what makes us special.”
The study concluded: “Our study offers experimental evidence that a non-human animal can track pretend
objects in pretend play, which is not uniquely human. Our findings suggest that the capacity to form secondary
representations of pretend objects is within the cognitive potential of an ape, likely dating back 6-9 million years, to
our common evolutionary ancestors.”
12. How did Kanzi engage in the experiments
A. By identifying objects. B. By learning sign language.
C. By emptying the juice. D. By moving cups around.
13. What can we learn from the experiments
A. Apes fail to find objects in mess. B. Christopher found apes make tools.
C. Only humans can make simple tools. D. Kanzi can choose jars with imagined grapes.
14. What might Christopher agree with
A. Imagination is unique to humans. B. Only humans can make simple tools.
C. Their finding may be game-changing. D. Apes and humans have different ancestors.
15. Which can be a suitable title for the text
A. Apes: Evolutionary Ancestors B. Apes: Imaginative Creatures
C. Apes: Clever Signal-Readers D. Apes: Skilful Tool Makers

How can we have fewer things in our house and make it spacious since it is full of never-opened packages and
unnecessary items ____16____
Deal with it in a year
It’s coming to the end of the year and, as I sit surrounded by presents, I feel a desire to get rid of them.
____17____ All of that youthful excitement about making a list, checking it twice, no longer exists. I have friends
so cruel that they start to throw it away the moment they open a present. You can see them writing the description
to sell it on. I don’t approve. It is too cruel. Plus there’s always a risk of being found out. My solution, which may
not be perfect, is to put the presents I am not sure about in a bag and then hide the whole thing in a drawer.
____18____ This week, I’ve just discovered the presents from last Christmas. Now it feels safe to desert them
though I bet I’m not the only one.
____19____
As I was trying to sort out my clothes, surrounded by 8 pairs of black trousers, a thought popped into my head:
I need help. I’d been sorting out things for years yet still had too many clothes and “nothing to wear”. That’s when
I hired Sam, who runs something called Conscious Edit. ____20____ She then returned, with see-through shoe
boxes, slim hangers and a DIY clothes rail. There is no magic solution but when I had to explain out loud to her
why I was keeping something. By the end, my clothes were either hanging, grouped by category or in drawers
neatly folded or rolled. The shoes are in clear boxes in the front closet. It has taken on a new look.
You can surely make your room tidy and clean with these methods.
A. Turn to an expert.
B. Buy less clothes and shoes.
C. I then “discover” it a year later.
D. The following two tips may give you a hint.
E. First she comes to assess, which took a few hours.
F. Most of us look forward to getting presents on holidays.
G. The truth about Christmas, when you get older, is that you need almost nothing.

against the wall of the well, ensuring that his head stayed above the water. “I am ____31____ you,” she told him. “I
won’t let you go.” Ramesan slowly opened his eyes.
Finally, the fire department arrived, and lowered a rescue basket into the well. Padmam helped her husband
into the basket, and he was ____32____ inch by inch. With Ramesan safe, it was her ____33____.

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。
The district championship game between Academy and Apache was physical and intense at the Academy of
Classical Christian Studies in Oklahoma City. Apache was the visiting team from another city. The Academy
players were falling behind and struggling, and the coach of the team, King, knew they’d have to try their best if
they wanted to win. Scoring was back and forth until the fourth quarter, when Apache took the lead by 14 points
with four minutes left on the clock.
King called one last timeout (暂停). “If we want to win this game, this is the time to do it,” he told his players.
The captain Sam nodded and promised to go all out.
Academy came out of the timeout with new energy, playing as if they had nothing to lose, scoring shot after
shot to pull within a few points of Apache. Then, with two minutes left to go, the referee blew the whistle, stopping
play because there was a disagreement between scoreboard and scorebook.
The scoreboard showed Academy was losing by 4 points; the scorebook showed that Academy was losing by
2. League rules state that the scorebook is the ultimate result not the scoreboard. The scoreboard was then updated
to 43-41 with Apache leading.
The game went on. Academy freshman Lily Payne hit a 3-point buzzer-beater to top Apache by a point for the
school’s first-ever district championship. The Academy won! The home crowd rushed to the court as players
celebrated with each other. But King walked to the locker room with a sinking feeling.
“I need to know if we won that game or not, just for my peace of mind,” he said.
That night, King sat down at his kitchen table with the game tape. He watched the entire thing through,
counting every point on a notepad. His gut (本能), it turned out, was right. Academy had actually lost the game by
a point. He watched a second time to be sure.
注意：1．续写词数应为 150 个左右；
2．请按如下格式在以下位置作答。
King decided to call players back and told them the bitter truth.

Children are arriving at primary school incapable of speaking properly but able to swipe screens on devices,
while older pupils are self-diagnosing Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) because of exposure to
online content, research has found. Head teachers said that primary schools needed help handling wrong theories
because pupils and their parents were getting nearly all their news from social media.
The online world was influencing the behaviour, beliefs and concentration of pupils. Even children in England
are taught how to identify wrong theories and extremist content in media literacy lessons in the recent classes.
There is also growing pressure on the government to ban phones in schools, but even very young children are
being exposed to extreme or age-inappropriate online content at home. Rather than being supportive, parents make
the situation worse. Parents were seen as ill-equipped, often misleading their kids. Ian, a deputy head, said, “It’s
very hard because we have parents who think COVID-19 wasn’t real.”
Teachers added that access to unfiltered information online was having a significant impact on pupils’
behaviour. Other teachers said boys as young as five or six seeing content by Andrew Tate and other prejudiced
influencers tend to abuse their classmates. Teachers said they felt underprepared when it came to addressing
misinformation, fake news and illogical theories.
Another teacher said, “The mental health, particularly with children in Years 5 and 6, is being massively
affected because of what they’re seeing through these algorithms (算法), because they keep diving deeper and
deeper into it.” Amy Braier, director, said, “Teachers are willing to take on this challenge but they need support
from wider society, government and — more importantly — parents.”
4. How do teachers feel about kids’ easy access to the Internet
A. Proud. B. Worried. C. Indifferent. D. Sympathetic.
5. Who is possibly responsible for children’s exposure to wrong information online
A. Their teachers. B. The government. C. Their parents. D. The influencers.
6. How does the information affect students according to the text
A. They can’t concentrate on study. B. They acquire better language skills.
C. They gradually become mentally healthier. D. They form a better relationship with others.
7. What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A. More online time makes kids smarter. B. Teachers hesitate to solve the problem.
C. Society plays a key role in solving the problem. D. Parents should try to guide their kids well at home.

“Why launch a project so vast and time-consuming — the first systematic survey of major Chinese textile
(纺织品) collections worldwide ” asks Zhao Feng, former director of the China National Silk Museum situated in
Hangzhou.
Launched in 2022, the cross-border initiative aims to publish 100 scholarly volumes documenting Chinese
silks preserved in museums and research institutions in China and abroad. The 12 volumes published so far include
studies of the Palace Museum in Beijing and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, where Zhao served as
a visiting research fellow from 1997 to 1998.
“This effort not only reshapes our understanding of ancient Chinese silk civilization, but also provides a
foundation for tracing intercultural exchange through textile evidence,” he says.
One example comes from the Shanpula (Sampula) tombs in Hotan, on the southern edge of the Taklimakan
Desert in Xinjiang. The site was historically linked to the Kingdom of Khotan, a major Buddhist and trading center
first recorded in the 2nd century BC — when long-distance commerce along the Silk Road was just beginning.
The kingdom endured until its fall in the early 11th century.
Among the most revealing finds is a crimson silk fragment woven in a warp-faced compound weave and
decorated with jade discs (玉璧) and animal masks. Although unearthed in China’s western frontier, its imagery
clearly reflects the ritual and traditions of the Central Plains — modern-day Henan province. In ancient China,
jade discs were upper class objects placed in burials as symbols of a gateway to heaven — a practice especially
prominent between the 5th and 1st centuries BC. Quite a few similar cases have been found in other places.
“These silent witnesses of history should not remain hidden in museum storerooms,” Zhao says.
8. What is the purpose of writing paragraph 1
A. To doubt the necessity of the project. B. To introduce the topic of the passage.
C. To stress the difficulty of the project. D. To explain the ways of doing research.
9. What can we learn from the passage
A. Zhao Feng opposes textile exhibitions.
B. The jade discs in the tomb held the spiritual power.
C. The Kingdom of Hotan appeared in the 11th century.
D. Zhao Feng is the director of the National Silk Museum.
10. What does the underlined word “prominent” in paragraph 5 mean
A. Widespread. B. Hidden. C. Mysterious. D. Important.
11. What is the main idea of the text
A. Links between west and central plains. B. The influence of National Silk Museum.
C. The significance of global textile collections. D. Zhao Feng’s contributions to the silk museum.

It isn’t just humans who can live in the land of pretend messy environment, but if you organise one, you might
find that primates (灵长目动物) have more vivid imaginations than anyone expected.
Researchers from Johns Hopkins University set up a scene similar to a child’s make-believe tea party. Kanzi, a
34-year-old ape, would face a researcher across a table set up with empty jugs, cups, bowls and jars. In one
experiment, the cups and jugs were transparent and the researcher pretended to pour juice into the two cups and
then pretended to pour the imaginary juice out of one of the cups before asking the ape “Where’s the juice ” They
found that he was consistently able to point to the cup filled with imaginary juice. In a second experiment designed
to test whether Kanzi understood the juice to be imaginary, the ape was able to tell between a cup full of real juice
and the cup filled with imaginary juice, showing that he knew the cups in the first experiment were really empty. In
a third experiment, the researcher pretended to take an imaginary grape from a bowl and place it inside one of two
jars, before pretending to empty one jar. Kanzi was able to correctly pick the jar containing the imaginary grape.
The study moved the cups and jugs around.
Christopher, co-author of the study, said: “Imagination has long been seen as a critical element of what it is to
be human but the idea that it may not be exclusive to our species is really transformative. Jane Goodall discovered
that chimps make tools and that led to a change in the definition of what it means to be human and this, too, really
invites us to reconsider what makes us special.”
The study concluded: “Our study offers experimental evidence that a non-human animal can track pretend
objects in pretend play, which is not uniquely human. Our findings suggest that the capacity to form secondary
representations of pretend objects is within the cognitive potential of an ape, likely dating back 6-9 million years, to
our common evolutionary ancestors.”
12. How did Kanzi engage in the experiments
A. By identifying objects. B. By learning sign language.
C. By emptying the juice. D. By moving cups around.
13. What can we learn from the experiments
A. Apes fail to find objects in mess. B. Christopher found apes make tools.
C. Only humans can make simple tools. D. Kanzi can choose jars with imagined grapes.
14. What might Christopher agree with
A. Imagination is unique to humans. B. Only humans can make simple tools.
C. Their finding may be game-changing. D. Apes and humans have different ancestors.
15. Which can be a suitable title for the text
A. Apes: Evolutionary Ancestors B. Apes: Imaginative Creatures
C. Apes: Clever Signal-Readers D. Apes: Skilful Tool Makers

My Views on Using AI Properly
Dear classmates,
Recently, some of us have been turning to AI while studying. It is true that AI can help us save much time and
improve our efficiency. However, this trend makes us worried. Some students frequently rely on AI for answers
instead of thinking on their own, which will surely lead to laziness and the loss of creative and critical thinking
abilities.
In my view, every coin has two sides, and AI is no exception. I suggest that we should try to figure out
problems by ourselves instead of depending too much on AI.
Let’s learn to use AI wisely and become the master of our learning!

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。
The district championship game between Academy and Apache was physical and intense at the Academy of
Classical Christian Studies in Oklahoma City. Apache was the visiting team from another city. The Academy
players were falling behind and struggling, and the coach of the team, King, knew they’d have to try their best if
they wanted to win. Scoring was back and forth until the fourth quarter, when Apache took the lead by 14 points
with four minutes left on the clock.
King called one last timeout (暂停). “If we want to win this game, this is the time to do it,” he told his players.
The captain Sam nodded and promised to go all out.
Academy came out of the timeout with new energy, playing as if they had nothing to lose, scoring shot after
shot to pull within a few points of Apache. Then, with two minutes left to go, the referee blew the whistle, stopping
play because there was a disagreement between scoreboard and scorebook.
The scoreboard showed Academy was losing by 4 points; the scorebook showed that Academy was losing by
2. League rules state that the scorebook is the ultimate result not the scoreboard. The scoreboard was then updated
to 43-41 with Apache leading.
The game went on. Academy freshman Lily Payne hit a 3-point buzzer-beater to top Apache by a point for the
school’s first-ever district championship. The Academy won! The home crowd rushed to the court as players
celebrated with each other. But King walked to the locker room with a sinking feeling.
“I need to know if we won that game or not, just for my peace of mind,” he said.
That night, King sat down at his kitchen table with the game tape. He watched the entire thing through,
counting every point on a notepad. His gut (本能), it turned out, was right. Academy had actually lost the game by
a point. He watched a second time to be sure.
注意：1．续写词数应为 150 个左右；
2．请按如下格式在以下位置作答。
King decided to call players back and told them the bitter truth.
____________________________________________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________________________________________

With his team’s support, King decided to deliver the trophy to the Apache players.

【答案】参考范文
King decided to call players back and told them the bitter truth. The truth was that the real score was 43-42
and the championship rightfully belonged to Apache. On hearing the bad news, everyone was shocked. King
patiently told them the detail of the mistake. An Academy shot went up and rolled around the rim. The crowd went
wild, sure that it was bound to drop into the basket, but then it didn’t. So the score was miscounted. Players fell into
silence. Captain Sam nodded, admitting that the Apache team had worked just as hard and deserved the win. Lily
added firmly that the trophy must go to its true owner.
With his team’s support, King decided to deliver the trophy to the Apache players. Before setting off for the
destination, King thought highly of players’ decision for the fair play spirit, adding that he was so proud of them for
their performance and devotion. Returning the trophy couldn’t take away their glory. After 90 minutes’ drive, King
and Captain Sam returned the trophy to the coach and players of Apache. The Apache team was deeply moved,
never expecting such honesty. At that moment, everyone truly understood that honesty is the best policy.
