As a scientist studying biomimicry (仿生学), Dr. Elena Reed spent hours in her laboratory, but her greatest inspiration came from outside. One morning, while walking in a park, she noticed a group of swallows flying swiftly through the trees. They never crashed into branches, even when flying at high speed. “How do they do that ” she wondered.
Elena decided to observe the swallows more closely. She set up a small camera near a nest and recorded their flight for weeks. She discovered that the swallows had a special way of seeing. Their eyes could notice tiny movements and judge distances very quickly. This helped them change direction in a flash. Elena realized that this ability could be useful for technology.
Back in her lab, Elena and her team worked hard to create a small sensor that copied the swallow’s vision system. They tested it on a mini-drone. The drone, equipped with the new sensor, could fly through a maze of obstacles without hitting any. It was a success! Elena’s invention, inspired by birds, made drones safer and more efficient. Her story shows how observing nature can lead to amazing scientific advances.
4. What was Dr. Elena Reed’s main interest as a scientist
A. Studying different kinds of birds in the forest.
B. Creating new cameras for recording animals.
C. Learning from nature to develop technology (biomimicry).

In today’s digital world, social media platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and WeChat are a big part of teenagers’ lives. While these platforms help teens connect with friends and learn new things, they also have a deep influence on how teenagers see themselves — their self-identity.
On the positive side, social media allows teenagers to explore different interests and ideas. They can join online groups about music, art, sports, or study, which helps them understand what they like and who they want to be. For example, a shy student might find confidence by sharing his drawings online and receiving encouraging comments. This can strengthen his sense of self.
However, there are negative effects too. Many teenagers feel pressure to look perfect online. They see edited photos and exciting videos of others’ lives, which can make them feel inadequate (不足). They might start comparing their own lives to these highlights, leading to low self-esteem. Some teens even change their behavior or appearance to get more “likes” and followers, which means they are letting others’ opinions shape their identity.
Moreover, the constant feedback on social media — likes, comments, shares — can make teens too focused on online validation. They may start to believe that their value depends on how many people approve of their posts, rather than their real qualities and achievements.
In conclusion, social media is a powerful tool that can both help and harm teenagers’ self-identity. It offers chances for self- discovery but also brings risks of comparison and over-reliance on others’ opinions. The key is for teens to use social media wisely, remember their real worth, and balance online life with offline experiences.
8. What is one positive effect of social media on teenagers’ self-identity mentioned in the passage
A. It always makes them feel confident.
B. It allows them to explore interests and understand themselves better.
C. It helps them get more followers easily.
D. It prevents them from feeling shy.
9. Why might some teenagers feel inadequate when using social media
A. Because they see edited photos and exciting videos of others, leading to comparison.
B. Because they don’t have enough friends online.
C. Because social media platforms are too difficult to use.
D. Because they spend too little time online.
10. The word “validation” in the fourth paragraph most probably means _________.
A. 批评 B. 改变 C. 忽略 D. 认可/认定
11. What is the main purpose of this passage
A. To encourage teenagers to use more social media.
B. To explain how to get more likes on social media.
C. To discuss both the positive and negative influences of social media on teens’ self-identity.
D. To tell a story about a teenager’s success on social media.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is changing our world rapidly. From smart assistants to self-driving cars, AI helps us in many ways. However, as AI becomes more powerful, a crucial skill becomes even more important for us: critical thinking. Critical thinking means the ability to think clearly, analyze information, and make reasoned judgments. In the AI era, teaching critical thinking is not just useful, it is necessary, and we must find effective ways to do it.
Why is critical thinking education so necessary now First, AI provides us with huge amounts of information, but not all of it is true or useful. For example, AI tools can write articles or create videos that look very real, but they might contain mistakes or even false information. Without critical thinking, people, especially students, might believe everything they see online, which can be dangerous. Second, many jobs that involve simple, repetitive tasks are being done by AI. Future jobs will require humans to solve complex problems, make ethical decisions, and create new ideas — all of which need strong critical thinking skills. Simply memorizing facts is no longer enough.
So, how can we teach critical thinking effectively Schools should change their methods. Instead of only asking for correct answers, teachers can encourage students to ask “why” and “how.” For instance, in a science class, after learning a fact from an AI-powered search, students should be guided to check other sources and discuss whether the information is reliable. Classroom debates and group projects on real-world issues, like “Should AI be used to make important decisions ” are excellent ways to practice analyzing different viewpoints and building logical arguments. Parents also play a role. At home, they can discuss news stories with their children, asking questions like, “Who wrote this ” and “What evidence supports this claim ”
In conclusion, AI is a powerful tool, but it is a tool that we must control with our minds. Critical thinking is the key to using AI wisely and safely. By making critical thinking a core part of education, through interactive teaching and daily practice, we can prepare young people not just to live in a future with AI, but to shape that future thoughtfully and responsibly.
12. What is the main argument of the passage
A. AI will soon replace all human jobs.
B. Critical thinking education is essential and should be taught in specific ways in the AI age.
C. Using AI is very dangerous for students.
D. Schools should focus more on teaching students how to use AI tools.
13. According to the passage, why might believing all AI-provided information be dangerous
A. Because AI tools are too expensive.
B. Because AI information is always boring.
C. Because AI-generated content can sometimes have errors or be false.
D. Because AI works too slowly.
14. The author suggests that future jobs will require humans to do all of the following EXCEPT _________.
A. doing simple, repetitive tasks B. solving complex problems
C. making ethical decisions D. creating new ideas
15. In the third paragraph, the word “reliable” most probably means _________.
A. 可靠的 B. 快速的 C. 有趣的 D. 古老的

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Do you ever feel stuck when facing a difficult task, thinking, “I’m just not good at this” This is a sign of a fixed mindset. ____16____ A growth mindset means believing your abilities can improve with effort and learning. Developing this mindset can make you more resilient and successful. Here are some practical ways to build it.
First, pay attention to your self-talk. The words you say to yourself matter. When you make a mistake, instead of thinking “I failed,” try thinking, “This is a chance to learn.” ____17____ For example, if you get a low score on a math test, a fixed mindset would say, “I’m bad at math.” A growth mindset would say, “I need to find a better way to study this topic.”

Start with small challenges and gradually take on bigger ones. Each time you push through, you prove to yourself that effort leads to improvement.
Another key is to value the process over the result. ____19____ Praise yourself for the hard work you put in, not just for a perfect outcome. Did you practice piano for an hour every day That’s worth celebrating, even if the recital wasn’t flawless. This shift in focus makes you more willing to keep trying.
Finally, learn from others. ____20____ Talk to people who have overcome obstacles. Read stories about famous scientists or artists who failed many times before succeeding. Their journeys remind us that struggle is a normal part of the path to mastery.
Remember, developing a growth mindset is a journey itself. It won’t happen overnight. But by practicing these steps, you can train your brain to see possibilities instead of limitations.
A. This simple change in language can shift your perspective.
B. However, you can choose to develop a different way of thinking.
C. Therefore, you should always ask for help immediately.
D. Second, see challenges as opportunities.
E. For instance, watching others succeed can make you feel jealous.

Understanding Empathy
Last summer, our school organized a community service program. I was assigned to visit Mr. Clark, an elderly man who lived alone. I felt a mix of excitement and nervousness as I walked to his small house. When I knocked on the door, a thin man with gentle eyes opened it. I introduced myself, but he just nodded and gestured for me to come in. The house was tidy but very quiet. I tried to start a ___21___ but he responded with short answers or silence. I felt awkward and unsure. Maybe this was a ___22___ idea.
The next week, I visited again. This time, I noticed some old gardening tools in the corner and ___23___ that he might like plants. So, on my third visit, I brought a small pot of sunflowers. His eyes lit up slightly. He pointed to the backyard, where I saw a few dry rose bushes. “I used to… but my hands…” he said slowly, looking at his ___24___ fingers. I finally understood— he loved gardening but couldn’t do it any more.

On my last visit, he gave me a handmade wooden birdhouse. “For your ___30___ , ” he said. I was moved. Through this experience, I learned what empathy truly means. It’s not about pity. It’s about ___31___ someone’s situation, being patient, and ___32___ a connection through understanding.
___33___ I was young and he was old, we found common ground. His backyard was no longer a ___34___ place, but a space where we built ___35___ . This experience taught me that empathy is a bridge built with kindness and attention, not just words.

It was a rainy Saturday afternoon. Lily, a shy 14-year-old girl, was organizing her grandfather’s attic (阁楼) when she discovered an old, leather-bound diary hidden inside a wooden chest. The cover was faded, but the lock was broken. Curious, she opened it and found the first entry dated 1944. The diary belonged to a young soldier named Thomas. As she turned the pages, she read about his fears, hopes, and a promise he made to his best friend, Jack, to return a silver pocket watch to his family if he didn’t survive the war. The last entry was unfinished, ending with, “Tomorrow we march into the forest. I have a bad feeling, but I must keep my promise…”
Lily’s heart raced. She remembered her grandfather mentioning a great-uncle named Jack who never returned from World War II. Could this be the same Jack She rushed downstairs with the diary, her hands trembling. Her grandfather was drinking tea in the living room. “Grandpa,” she said breathlessly, “did you know someone named Thomas ” Her grandfather’s eyes widened. He took the diary gently, his fingers tracing the worn pages. “Where did you find this ” he whispered. “Thomas was my father’s brother. He disappeared during the war. We never knew what happened to him.” Lily felt a mix of excitement and sadness. She knew she had to find out the rest of the story — and perhaps fulfill a long-lost promise.

In today’s digital world, social media platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and WeChat are a big part of teenagers’ lives. While these platforms help teens connect with friends and learn new things, they also have a deep influence on how teenagers see themselves — their self-identity.
On the positive side, social media allows teenagers to explore different interests and ideas. They can join online groups about music, art, sports, or study, which helps them understand what they like and who they want to be. For example, a shy student might find confidence by sharing his drawings online and receiving encouraging comments. This can strengthen his sense of self.
However, there are negative effects too. Many teenagers feel pressure to look perfect online. They see edited photos and exciting videos of others’ lives, which can make them feel inadequate (不足). They might start comparing their own lives to these highlights, leading to low self-esteem. Some teens even change their behavior or appearance to get more “likes” and followers, which means they are letting others’ opinions shape their identity.
Moreover, the constant feedback on social media — likes, comments, shares — can make teens too focused on online validation. They may start to believe that their value depends on how many people approve of their posts, rather than their real qualities and achievements.
In conclusion, social media is a powerful tool that can both help and harm teenagers’ self-identity. It offers chances for self- discovery but also brings risks of comparison and over-reliance on others’ opinions. The key is for teens to use social media wisely, remember their real worth, and balance online life with offline experiences.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is changing our world rapidly. From smart assistants to self-driving cars, AI helps us in many ways. However, as AI becomes more powerful, a crucial skill becomes even more important for us: critical thinking. Critical thinking means the ability to think clearly, analyze information, and make reasoned judgments. In the AI era, teaching critical thinking is not just useful, it is necessary, and we must find effective ways to do it.
Why is critical thinking education so necessary now First, AI provides us with huge amounts of information, but not all of it is true or useful. For example, AI tools can write articles or create videos that look very real, but they might contain mistakes or even false information. Without critical thinking, people, especially students, might believe everything they see online, which can be dangerous. Second, many jobs that involve simple, repetitive tasks are being done by AI. Future jobs will require humans to solve complex problems, make ethical decisions, and create new ideas — all of which need strong critical thinking skills. Simply memorizing facts is no longer enough.
So, how can we teach critical thinking effectively Schools should change their methods. Instead of only asking for correct answers, teachers can encourage students to ask “why” and “how.” For instance, in a science class, after learning a fact from an AI-powered search, students should be guided to check other sources and discuss whether the information is reliable. Classroom debates and group projects on real-world issues, like “Should AI be used to make important decisions ” are excellent ways to practice analyzing different viewpoints and building logical arguments.

In conclusion, AI is a powerful tool, but it is a tool that we must control with our minds. Critical thinking is the key to using AI wisely and safely. By making critical thinking a core part of education, through interactive teaching and daily practice, we can prepare young people not just to live in a future with AI, but to shape that future thoughtfully and responsibly.
12. What is the main argument of the passage
A. AI will soon replace all human jobs.
B. Critical thinking education is essential and should be taught in specific ways in the AI age.
C. Using AI is very dangerous for students.
D. Schools should focus more on teaching students how to use AI tools.

Understanding Empathy
Last summer, our school organized a community service program. I was assigned to visit Mr. Clark, an elderly man who lived alone. I felt a mix of excitement and nervousness as I walked to his small house. When I knocked on the door, a thin man with gentle eyes opened it. I introduced myself, but he just nodded and gestured for me to come in. The house was tidy but very quiet. I tried to start a ___21___ but he responded with short answers or silence. I felt awkward and unsure. Maybe this was a ___22___ idea.
The next week, I visited again. This time, I noticed some old gardening tools in the corner and ___23___ that he might like plants. So, on my third visit, I brought a small pot of sunflowers. His eyes lit up slightly. He pointed to the backyard, where I saw a few dry rose bushes. “I used to… but my hands…” he said slowly, looking at his ___24___ fingers. I finally understood— he loved gardening but couldn’t do it any more.
From then on, our ___25___ changed. Instead of trying to talk, I started to ___26___ . I would water the plants, and he would sit nearby, giving short instructions. One hot afternoon, after we finished, I was sweating. He ___27___ inside and came back with a glass of cold lemonade. “For you,” he said with a small smile. That simple act ___28___ me deeply.
One day, he pointed to an old photo album. We spent the whole afternoon looking at pictures. His voice was filled with ___29___ as he told stories. I just listened. At that moment, I felt a strong connection. I wasn’t just a volunteer; I was a friend sharing his memories.
On my last visit, he gave me a handmade wooden birdhouse. “For your ___30___ , ” he said. I was moved. Through this experience, I learned what empathy truly means. It’s not about pity. It’s about ___31___ someone’s situation, being patient, and ___32___ a connection through understanding.
___33___ I was young and he was old, we found common ground. His backyard was no longer a ___34___ place, but a space where we built ___35___ . This experience taught me that empathy is a bridge built with kindness and attention, not just words.

The Importance of Reading Aloud in the Morning

范文一
The Importance of Reading Aloud in the Morning
This is Li Hua, a reporter from the school English newspaper. Recently, I observed our morning reading sessions and found a common scene: the classroom is often too quiet. Many students just read silently or in very low voices.
Reading aloud in the morning is vitally important. Firstly, it greatly improves our pronunciation and fluency. Secondly, it boosts our confidence in using English publicly. Moreover, by hearing our own voice, we can memorize words and sentence patterns more effectively, which lays a solid foundation for the whole day’s learning.
I earnestly hope that every one of us can realize the value of this practice. Let’s fill our morning with clear and confident English voices, creating a more dynamic and productive learning environment together.
范文二
The Importance of Reading Aloud in the Morning
As Li Hua, a reporter for our school English newspaper, I conducted interviews about morning reading. The current situation is concerning: during the allocated time, most students remain silent or merely whisper, missing the core purpose of the activity.
The importance of reading aloud cannot be overstated. It directly improves our pronunciation and fluency by training our mouth muscles. Simultaneously, it significantly boosts our confidence in speaking English. Most importantly, the combination of seeing, saying, and hearing helps us remember vocabulary and grammar structures much more effectively than silent reading does.
My expectation is clear. I hope teachers and class monitors will encourage and organize loud reading every morning. I also hope every student will actively participate, turning this simple habit into a powerful tool for English mastery.

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。
It was a rainy Saturday afternoon. Lily, a shy 14-year-old girl, was organizing her grandfather’s attic (阁楼) when she discovered an old, leather-bound diary hidden inside a wooden chest. The cover was faded, but the lock was broken. Curious, she opened it and found the first entry dated 1944. The diary belonged to a young soldier named Thomas. As she turned the pages, she read about his fears, hopes, and a promise he made to his best friend, Jack, to return a silver pocket watch to his family if he didn’t survive the war. The last entry was unfinished, ending with, “Tomorrow we march into the forest. I have a bad feeling, but I must keep my promise…”
Lily’s heart raced. She remembered her grandfather mentioning a great-uncle named Jack who never returned from World War II. Could this be the same Jack She rushed downstairs with the diary, her hands trembling. Her grandfather was drinking tea in the living room. “Grandpa,” she said breathlessly, “did you know someone named Thomas ” Her grandfather’s eyes widened. He took the diary gently, his fingers tracing the worn pages. “Where did you find this ” he whispered. “Thomas was my father’s brother. He disappeared during the war. We never knew what happened to him.” Lily felt a mix of excitement and sadness. She knew she had to find out the rest of the story — and perhaps fulfill a long-lost promise.

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
Lily decided to search for more clues about Thomas and the pocket watch. She and her grandfather visited the local history museum, where a curator suggested checking wartime donation records. They discovered that Thomas’s personal belongings, including a small metal box, had been donated anonymously years ago. After tracking down the donor’s family, they learned the box was stored in a basement. With permission, Lily opened it and found the silver pocket watch, still ticking, along with a photo of Thomas and Jack smiling in uniform. Attached was a note: “To Jack’s family — keep this with pride.”
Months later, a surprising letter arrived at Lily’s house. It was from a historian specializing in wartime stories, who had heard about Lily’s find online. He offered to help organize a small exhibition at the museum to honor Thomas and Jack’s friendship. The exhibition featured the diary, the watch, and their story, attracting many visitors. Lily, once shy, even gave a short speech about the importance of keeping promises. The experience not only solved a family mystery but also taught Lily that history is alive through memories and acts of kindness.
