The other day, a new research idea struck me. The conceptual path was clear, but putting it into
practice would require real effort — writing code, training models, and performing statistical
analysis. Just a few years ago, the next step would have been a no-brainer. I would recruit (招收) a
graduate student into my lab and allow him to run the project. This time, an uncomfortable thought
came into my head: Should I just give these tasks to AI rather than take a chance on a student
I thought about the skills I had when I started graduate school more than a decade ago. I had
zero research experience. One professor saw past my ignorance and agreed to take me on. The first
few months were a hard reality check. I worked tirelessly, yet whenever I presented my work, my
adviser would send me back to start from scratch. But she didn’t give up on me. It took a year or so
before I finally produced something we could build on.
Years later, when I became a professor, I watched my own students struggle, just as I once had.
Eventually, the investment paid off, and I experienced the deep satisfaction of watching them
transform into capable junior collaborators.
Now, AI has introduced a new option. It can competently handle a lot of the work I need to
finish immediately. The issue is not whether my students are valuable — in the long run, they are
invaluable. The issue is that their value emerges slowly, whereas AI delivers immediate returns.
Close colleagues are quietly holding back from taking on as many students as they used to. My
immediate thought is to expect any student I recruit to contribute at a much higher level from the
beginning. But to meet those expectations, a student would likely rely heavily on AI tools. The real
danger is that the common assumption that taking on students is part of a professor’s academic
journey will quietly disappear.
Personally, I am seriously tempted (诱惑) not to take a chance on a beginner for my new project
— which means today, I probably wouldn’t recruit my younger self.
4．What would be the author’s reaction to the new research idea a few years ago
A. Using AI for all the work. B. Giving the tasks to a student.
C. Seeking help from friends. D. Asking for his adviser’s opinions.
5．Why does the author mention his own experience as a graduate student
A. To show how difficult research is.
B. To explain why he became a professor.
C. To criticize his former adviser’s methods.
D. To prove the value of patience in teaching.
6．What is the author’s main concern about AI in education
A. It threatens the tradition of teaching.
B. It lengthens students’ academic journey.
C. It takes the place of teachers.
D. It increases professors’ workload greatly.
7．What can be inferred about the author now
A. He hesitates to take new students.
B. He values processes more than results.
C. He refuses to use AI in his projects.
D. He will build a student team soon.
It’s normal to see a little hair come out in the shower, but noticing handfuls of hair pile up in the
pipe opening is a bit alarming. On social media, lots of people are attributing (把……归因于) their
hair loss concerns to one reason in particular: hard water.
Hard water is incredibly mineral-rich. “The higher the calcium and magnesium levels, the
harder the water,” says Gaurav Agnihotri, a clinical associate at UChicago Medicine. There are tests
you can use to measure the hardness of your water, but here’s an easy indicator: “If white chalk
builds up around the taps, the sink, shower heads or even your coffee maker, those could be signs
that you have hard water,” he says.
Showering with hard water isn’t bad for you in itself, but it “can potentially harm the hair
texture, making the hair feel either too dry or even too oily,” Agnihotri says. “Shampooing (洗发)
with hard water can leave mineral buildups on your hair,” added Agnihotri. Over time, this buildup
on the skin on your head can give the appearance of oily hair, even if you’ve freshly washed it.
Alongside this, you might begin to notice your hair become more dull and straw-like, and your hair
more likely to suffer breakage, says Mary Ann Bentz, a doctor at Lawrence and Memorial Hospital
in Connecticut.
Washing your hair with hard water can make your hair drier and more brittle, studies have
shown, but “there’s no direct evidence in the medical literature linking the exposure to hard water
with hair loss,” says Agnihotri. It’s normal to lose around 50 to 100 hairs a day, according to the
American Academy of Dermatology. Anything beyond that, it’s time to head to the doctor’s office,
says Bentz.
To mitigate mineral buildup, experts recommend periodically using something that has EDTA
as an active ingredient. You could also try using a clarifying shampoo once a week, she says.
Whichever product you use, the key is to apply the shampoo directly to your skin and gently massage
— not rub harshly — your hair, says Agnihotri.
8．What is a sign of hard water at home
A. Hair loss becomes increasingly serious.
B. Water pressure in the shower gets lower.
C. Skin feels unusually dry after being washed.
D. White mineral substances form on water facilities.
9．What effect can hard water have, according to paragraph 3
A. It directly causes permanent hair loss.
B. It makes hair look oily and easy to break.
C. It changes the natural color of the hair.
D. It prevents shampoo from working effectively.
10．What can we know from paragraph 4
A. No clear medical proof connects hard water and hair loss.
B. More research is needed to solve the hair loss problem.
C. It’s normal for adults to lose over 100 hairs per day.
D. Hair loss cannot be cured in a short time.
11．What does the underlined word “mitigate” in the last paragraph probably mean
A. Strengthen. B. Highlight. C. Illustrate. D. Relieve.
Are you worried about your data being stolen on public WiFi Concerned about devices being
hacked on public charging points Hesitant about scanning that QR code Don’t be: these are fears
based in myth. Experts have written an open letter to"correct a set of persistent myths about digital
risk to everyday people and small businesses".
Top of the list is to"avoid public WiFi", which many credible sources still say is unsafe. In
October, Google offered advice in a report on text scams—avoid using public WiFi whenever
possible, as these networks can be insecure and easily used by attackers. But the experts say
that"large-scale attacks via public WiFi are exceptionally rare today. Modern products use
encryption (加密) technologies to protect your traffic even on open networks and operating systems,
and browsers now warn users about untrusted connections".
They also break the myth of avoiding QR codes—"there is no evidence of widespread crime
originating from QR-code scanning itself"—and the myth of turning off Bluetooth and contactless
capability—"wireless attacks in the wild are extraordinarily rare and typically require specialized
hardware and physical nearness."
If you regularly change your password or clear cookies(缓存 ), then don’t bother, the experts
add. Deleti ng cookies"doesn’t meaningfully improve security or stop modern tracking. Changing
your password often leads to weaker passwords and reuse across accounts, which are security"no-
nos".
The letter is the brainchild of Bob Lord, former security chief for Yahoo and Twitter, who has
been annoyed by"hacklore"for some time. He said someone sent him an article that talked about
public WiFi, QR codes, USB charging stations and a few other things. And he said,"I need to turn
my eye-rolling into something productive and to share it with the world."Lord emphasized that the
advice in the letter was aimed at the public but high-risk individuals such as activists and officials
would need tailored protections. The protections that do matter for everyone, according to the letter,
are: keeping your devices and apps updated; enabling multi-factor identity confirmation on sensitive
accounts; starting to use passkeys, a new sign-in technology that is replacing passwords.
12．What is the main purpose of the experts’ open letter
A. To warn of digital threats.
B. To correct wrong ideas about online risks.
C. To advise against using the public network.
D. To introduce advanced security technology.
13．What do experts say about public WiFi today
A. It should be avoided by all means.
B. It is safe for sending important messages.
C. Serious attacks through it are very uncommon.
D. Its risks have increased due to modern technology.
14．What is considered really important for online safety
A. Changing passwords very often.
B. Turning off all wireless functions.
C. Upgrading software and using passkeys.
D. Following the advice for high-risk groups.
15．Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. Public WiFi: A Common Danger
B. How to Protect Our Data in Public
C. Are Some Common Online Fears Myths
D. Security: A Top Priority in the Digital Age
二、七选五
16．In today’s fast-paced, screen-filled world, boredom is often viewed as something to be
avoided.①____________ When used correctly, it helps students think more thoroughly, absorb
information better, and develop creativity, all skills that make tutoring sessions and study time far
more effective.
Boredom isn’t a sign that learning isn’t happening. On the contrary, it creates the mental space
where deep thinking, understanding, and creativity can flourish. Why will students benefit from
boredom
②____________
When students rush through assignments or tutoring sessions, they often miss the chance to
internalize the information. Brief moments of pause allow the brain to organize ideas and make sense
of new knowledge, improving long-term memory.
Their creativity and problem-solving ability will be enhanced.
Boredom encourages imagination. When students aren’t constantly entertained, their minds
begin to explore possibilities.③____________
Their focus and concentration will be improved.
By learning to sit with boredom, students strengthen their ability to focus. This makes study
sessions, homework, and tutoring more effective and reduces the need for constant guidance.
They will achieve greater emotional resilience (韧性).
Learning isn’t always easy, and students need to tolerate small struggles. Moments of boredom
teach patience and resilience, preparing students to face challenges in school and beyond.
Next time you feel bored, embrace it. Ask yourself: What do I already understand What am I
curious about ④____________ These moments of reflection can lead to breakthroughs in
understanding, boost creativity, and make learning feel more meaningful.
By incorporating structured reflection and “thinking time” into learning, students can turn
boredom into a powerful learning tool and transform spare moments into opportunities for growth.
They can improve focus, creativity, and confidence along the way.⑤____________ It’s a little bit
of boredom.
A. What if I finally figure it out
B. They will gain better understanding.
C. How could I explore this topic differently
D. Boredom is an immediate indicator of failure in learning.
E. Sometimes, the most effective tool for learning isn’t a textbook or even a teacher.
F. However, for students, boredom can actually be a powerful tool that boosts learning.
G. This can inspire innovative solutions and help students develop independent thinking skills.
三、完形填空（15 空）
Her name was Edith Borngeeser. It is a name I will never forget. She drove me to school from
the time I was in kindergarten until I was old enough to 1 busy Newbridge Road in North
Bellmore and ride my bicycle to Martin Avenue School. Mrs. Borngeeser loved to 2 songs
while driving to school. I remember one of her favorites was "The Dummy". I usually joined in
the 3 .
Though it was 4 to be driven by Mrs. Borngeeser, she did not 5 any bad behavior.
No silly behavior was acted, and she was always treated with respect. She could keep you in check
with a backward glance if you didn’t obey the rules or by 6 ending a song in progress and
beginning again only when order was 7
Mrs. Borngeeser was not a family friend or a member of a shared carpool. She was my school
bus driver. She drove me and probably 30 to 40 other children to school every day, in all kinds of
weather. I remember her 8 parents warmly at each stop along the way. We always arrived
safely at our 9 .
Now, decades later, I wonder if my own child, or my grandson who recently began driving
himself to high school, in a car not on a bicycle, had any 10 like mine. Were there any Mrs.
Borngeesers at the 11 on their trips to school, keeping passengers 12 and well-
behaved by leading them in song
A school bus driver is surely one of the noble and unsung 13 in our country. Each day,
parents take an enormous leap of faith and entrust(委托) the 14 of their children to school bus
drivers. After all, what could be more 15 than the well-being of our children
17．A. cross B. check C. avoid D. mark

四、短文填空
32．Picture a city where every airport lounge, subway station, and even the bank lobby (大厅)

commuters pause to read, not just hang around. Imagine the scene when taking a high-speed train,
passengers put away their mobile phones and use a book to entertain②_____________________
(they) during the journey. This is not an imaginary vision,③______________ a future that China’s
new Regulations (法规) on the Promotion of Nationwide Reading aims④___________________
(bring) within reach.
Approved by the Executive Meeting of the State Council on Thursday, this regulation marks a
leap for reading in China.⑤_______________ was once a cultural campaign has become a matter of
public law.
The regulation promises to ensure the right to read, expand access⑥_____________ quality
content, and create a more inclusive reading environment for all — from curious children to lifelong
learners. The significance of this regulation cannot be overstated. For years, “national reading”
⑦___________________ (be) a slogan, a campaign, and a hope voiced by educators and cultural
advocates.
A⑧__________________ (various) of actions are being taken across the country to promote
reading for all. For instance, Wuhan, Hubei Province, has integrated the city’s literary spirit into its
transportation network in recent years,⑨_____________________ (introduce) subway self-service
libraries and offering digital reading resources.
Yet, regulation alone cannot build a nation of readers. Regulation is a catalyst (催化剂), but

habits, and personal motivation are also important engines of a reading culture.

六、读后续写
34．Recently, I was in downtown Chicago, visiting from Michigan. I spent a few hours in
Millennium Park, enjoying the lively atmosphere and casually observing the tourists and locals
passing by. On the way back to my car, as I reached for my keys, I realized my purse was missing. I
was seized by panic. My purse held my ID, credit cards, medications and hundreds of dollars in cash.
I started to feel anxiety, first in my legs, then in my gut and then right on top of my chest. I couldn’t
think straight. My mind was racing with the worst possibilities as I anxiously retraced my steps.
After about an hour, I stopped in front of a Millennium Park gift shop and walked in, just to see
if maybe someone had turned in my purse. I went up to the cashier and asked if anyone had brought
in a black purse. The woman’s eyes widened; she said someone had. At that moment, all of the tears
and sobs came out. I was overwhelmed with a wave of relief as she said that about half an hour
earlier, two women had come into the gift shop with a black purse. It turned out that they had spotted
the purse on a park bench near the store, but noticed a man going through it. They immediately
became suspicious.
“They walked up to the man and asked if it was his. He mumbled that his wife had lost it. And
they just didn’t believe him,” the cashier told me. The women pretended the purse was theirs, and
wrestled it from his hands. Purse in hand, the women hurried to the gift shop and went inside. They
waited for about half an hour to see if the owner would return, but no one appeared. They left the
purse with a security guard. Five minutes later, I walked in.
注意：
1.续写词数应为 150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I rushed to the security guard.

33．答案：Dear Harry,
I’m delighted to join this cross-cultural exam preparation exchange and share our study with
each other.
Recently, I have made full preparations for my coming exams. I stick to reviewing key
knowledge every day, finishing targeted exercises and sorting out error logs regularly. Meanwhile, I
arrange my time reasonably to avoid burnout and keep a positive state.
Knowing you are preparing for the A-Level exams, I’m wondering how your preparation is
going. Could you share your effective revision methods Besides, I’d like to know how you relieve
study pressure.
Hope we can learn from each other and make progress together.
Yours,

34．答案：I rushed to the security guard. My hands trembling, I explained my situation and
showed my ID to prove the purse was mine. He smiled warmly and handed me the black purse,
saying, “Those two women were really quick-witted and brave. They wouldn’t let that thief get away
with it.” I checked every item carefully — my ID, credit cards, cash and medications were all there,
untouched. Tears of relief welled up in my eyes as I imagined the women standing up to the stranger
for me.
However, the two women didn’t leave any of their information. I asked the cashier and the
security guard repeatedly, hoping to get their names or contact details to thank them properly, but
they had just hurried off after handing over the purse. I stood there for a long time, feeling both
grateful and regretful that I couldn’t thank them face-to-face. Even so, their kindness has stayed with
me ever since. They taught me that courage and goodness are always around us, and I promised
myself I would pass on this warmth to others whenever I could.
