Have you ever noticed how differently people from different countries deal with rainy days
When the sky turns gray and drops its silver threads (线), people can see a sea of colorful dots dancing under the raindrops. Yep! Many umbrellas come out! In China, people love umbrellas not only because they keep them dry but also because they add a touch of color to such days.

It is considered polite to offer an umbrella to someone in need during rainy days.
Whether to take an umbrella or not is more about cultural habits and lifestyle choices. It’s all about how we choose to enjoy life.

This year, 20 students at David Game College in London are being taught by AI instead of human teachers. Pupils have lessons designed for them based on their individual needs (个人需求). There are just AI programs on pupils’ computers and virtual reality headsets (虚拟现实头盔) with human learning coaches in classrooms to lend a hand if needed.
Online learning using AI isn’t new. For example, a world-famous language learning app uses it to create lessons. A digital AI teacher called Will has taught primary school children in New Zealand, and millions of students in China use AI to support their learning.
However, some people think using AI to teach pupils is a step too far and that students need human interaction (互动) in their lessons.
Are AI teachers a good idea What do you think
Group Yes●AI teachers can focus on pupils’ individual needs and help them understand subjects they have difficulty with. This is hard for human teachers in a large classroom with lots of children. ●AI technology is already used in lesson planning, so why not use it for teaching too—it would save schools money. ●There is a shortage of secondary school teachers in the UK—AI teachers could be used to fill this gap (缺口). Group No●AI is only as good as the information it learns. It can’t replace a human teacher—especially not when it comes to creative subjects like art or drama. ●However clever AI is, it can’t connect with pupils or encourage children to work hard and reach their goals. ●Teachers don’t just teach, they manage emotions (情绪) and deal with bullying. Pupils could lose focus or get upset if real teachers aren’t around.
36．Why is David Game College mentioned in Paragraph 1
A．To show the student numbers. B．To lead into the discussion.
C．To describe the advantage of AI. D．To show the popularity of AI.
37．What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 1 refer to (指代)
A．The pupils B．The AI programs.
C．The human teachers. D．The lesson coaches.
38．Where does the AI teacher Will work
A．In England. B．In New Zealand. C．In China. D．In America.
39．Which of the following does Group Yes most agree with
A．AI could cause money shortage.
B．AI would help save some schools.
C．AI is too smart to encourage creative ideas.
D．AI is good at meeting different students’ needs.
40．What might the writer continue talking about
A．The use of AI technology. B．The shortage of human teachers.
C．The opinions of AI tools. D．The ways of mood management.

How does your birth order drive your personality and behavior Here is what we discovered.
Only children are special, being the first, the last and the only boy or girl. If you’re an only child, you’re more likely to have your parents’ undivided attention, which means that you’ll possibly have excellent language skills and be independent. Single children form treasured friendships which they often take very seriously. And without siblings (兄弟姐妹) to boss around, they can be a bit less organized than first-borns.
First-borns can be a little more anxious and cautious than their younger siblings, mainly because of overprotective first-time moms and dads. They’re also likely to be hard-working, responsible and have a strong drive to succeed which comes from trying to regain the love they feel they’ve lost when a brother or sister has come along.
Middle children are well balanced. If you’re an in-betweener, you may find it easy to communicate and make friends with older and younger children. You might think you’re in a lose-lose situation because you have no privileges (特权) of your older and younger siblings, but your birth order will be very useful for your future adult life. It’s likely you’ll form some true friendships and will look to these for the attention you feel you’re missing at home. Middle children are people-pleasers, which means they can sometimes spread themselves too thinly or find it difficult to say no. If you recognize this as one of your traits (特征), step back and remember that the most important thing in life is to be true to yourself.
Last-borns tend to have more freedom than their siblings because their parents have, in effect, taken their foot off the parenting pedal. Youngest children will be creative, outgoing, seemingly confident—although their position as the baby of the family can sometimes leave them less secure than they appear—and unafraid to take risks.
41．The text leads into the topic by________.
A．showing a fact B．raising a question
C．listing some numbers D．making a conclusion
42．What does the underlined word “they” refer to
A．Single children. B．The siblings.
C．Treasured friendships. D．Excellent language skills.
43．First-borns have strong drives to succeed because ________.
A．they are overprotected by their first-time parents
B．they are more responsible than their younger siblings
C．they are trying to regain the love they feel they’ve lost
D．they are trying to show love for their first-time parents
44．Which of the following is one of the traits of middle children
A．Unbalanced. B．Confident. C．Privileged. D．Easy-going.
45．The author advises middle children to ________.
A．be true to themselves B．say no to other people
C．look for attention at home D．make friends with other children

Whenever you are invited to a Western family for dinner, to know some knowledge of Western manners is very important. 46
Be on time.
To be a polite guest, be sure to get there on time. Being late as well as being too early is impolite. If you can’t get there on time, make a call as early as possible.
47
People in different countries have different ways of greeting each other. In Britain and the United States, people are supposed to shake hands when they meet for the first time. For friends, they may choose a hug. In France, greeting with a kiss is very common.
Mind table manners.
When having dinner, you should behave properly. For example, putting your spoon in the soup bowl is considered impolite. 48 Be careful not to make much noise when cutting things with your knife.
Keep a proper talking distance.
Generally, one meter between each other is perfect in Britain. 49 People will feel uncomfortable when they are too close to each other or too far from each other.
50
Some flowers or a bottle of wine is enough. If there are children, some chocolate will be nice.

五、短文填空
阅读下面短文，根据语境或所给单词的提示，在每个空格内填入一个恰当的词，要求所填的词意义准确、形式正确，使短文意思完整、行文连贯。
There are many interesting and useful Chinese idioms. For example, we have been 61 (use) “wanku zidi” (纨绔子弟) to describe playboys from rich families for centuries. But do you know what “wanku” means
62 Chinese, we often use clothing-related words to refer to certain people. For example, jinguo, a kind of 63 (woman) headdress, is used to refer to women. We use “Paoze” (袍泽), a term originally referring to soldiers’ robes, to refer to comrades-in-arms. Like these phrases, wanku is also related to clothes.
Wan is 64 kind of fine cloth. It is 65 (make) of silk and is closely woven (编织). Ku, just like today’s ku, means trousers or pants. Wanku was a type of expensive pants in the past, 66 silk was very rare (少见的) at that time. Only rich people could afford it.
Gradually, people started to use wanku to refer to playboys from wealthy 67 (family). This type of clothing showed 68 luxurious (奢侈的) and wasteful their lives were. The richer they were, the 69 (good) clothes they wore.
Unlike rich people, common people could 70 (simple) wear plain cotton clothes. That’s why they were called buyi.

The School Activity I Will Never Forget
Last spring, our school held the annual sports meeting on the playground. I joined the 4×100-meter relay race with three close classmates who were not the fastest runners in our grade. We trained every afternoon for weeks, even when the wind was very cold. On race day, my hands shook, but my teammates kept cheering me on. When I passed the baton, we were two steps behind, but the last runner ran like the wind and caught up. We only got third place, but I deeply learned teamwork’s true meaning, which I will remember forever.
