Holding the key to a car, 40-year-old Jessica Rader couldn’t help but weep. “It’s not just about the car,” she whispered, her voice trembling with emotion. “It’s about community.”
The vehicle was more than a gift; it was a masterpiece of kindness crafted by students at Louisa County High School. For several months, these teenagers had labored in their automotive workshop to repair the car specifically for Rader, a single mother of three. “Kids who never met me cared enough to ensure my family’s safety,” Rader remarked, still breathless from the encounter.
This heartwarming scene was part of a partnership between the school and Giving Words, a local nonprofit founded by Eddie Brown. Having struggled as single parents themselves, Brown and his wife understood the stakes (利害关系). “A broken-down car can mean losing a job or missing vital appointments,” Brown explained. Since 2018, they have donated over 60 cars to single mothers, with high schoolers renewing about half of them.
In the school’s garage, the connection of education and real life becomes visible. Under the guidance of teacher Shane Robertson, about 20 students per car handle everything from brake repairs to battery testing. For 16-year-old Holden Pekary, the experience is deeply rewarding. He recalled a recent presentation where the class raised the garage doors and clapped as a mother with a baby received her keys. “I put the license plate on for her,” Holden said proudly. “It was nice.”
For Rader, the car was a conduit to a new life. Within three months of connecting with the program, her world shifted. “Because of this vehicle, I moved from a part-time job to a full-time career and started school,” she said. Beyond the car, Giving Words also gave her free oil changes, as well as diapers (尿布) and clothing for her sons. A little mechanical help can drive a soul toward a brighter future.
4. What did Rader value most
A．The car’s excellent performance.
B．The collective care of the community.
C．The car’s extraordinary function.
D．The academic credits students earned.
5. Why did Eddie Brown start the vehicle donation program
A．To reduce the unemployment rate locally.
B．To provide technical training for teenagers.
C．To share his own successful parenting tips.
D．To assist single parents in hard times.
6. How did the car program change Rader’s life
A．It encouraged her to become a mechanic.
B．It improved her academic performance.
C．It secured her a more stable livelihood.
D．It helped her get rid of financial crisis.
7. Which word can replace the underlined word “conduit” in the last paragraph
A．Bridge.
B．Street.
C．Position.
D．Stone.

From this week, the UK has introduced strict rules to protect children from junk food advertising. Ads for 13 categories of processed foods and drinks, such as sugary soft drinks, crisps, and chocolates, are banned online and can only air on TV after 9 p.m.
The reason is rising childhood obesity (肥胖). Our exclusive report last week highlighted doctors’ calls for routine blood pressure testing in children, emphasizing the dangers of obesity and the case for preventing it. The longer-term trend, both nationally and internationally, is widely recognised as alarming. Since the UK’s child measurement programme began 20 years ago, obesity rates among primary-age children in England have climbed from 17.5% to 22.1%.
Obesity deepens social inequality, with rates in poverty-stricken areas twice as likely to be obese as those in wealthy ones. The resulting health risks — type 2 diabetes, stroke, and cardiovascular diseases — add to the hardships of the disadvantaged. This concentration of harm is a key reason to welcome the advertising restrictions. Like gambling (赌博) or smoking, the uneven impact of unhealthy processed foods on already-struggling households is among their most damaging effects.
Children often lack the knowledge and maturity to make decisions about fat, sugar, and salt intake. For the UK government, narrowing the gaps that restrict the life chances of disadvantaged children must always be a priority.
Public debate on obesity has increasingly focused on new weight-loss drugs, yet in the UK, these are available only to a small group of severely obese children. This highlights the need to prioritize prevention and public health initiatives around food, as a healthy lifestyle involves exercise and nutrition, not just body weight.
Charities like Sustain have criticized the concessions (让步) made to industry giants, such as allowing brand advertising as long as specific junk foods are not displayed. Their caution is justified: last year saw record snack food sales, and billboard advertising — less controlled by rules — has rocketed. But while the new rules will not end childhood obesity and should have been in place sooner, as with other half measures, they are much better than none at all.
8. What is the main purpose of the new UK rules
A．To protect children from obesity risks.
B．To encourage people to break bad habits.
C．To limit junk food sales to evenings.
D．To enforce blood pressure testing in schools.
9. Why does the author mention gambling and smoking in paragraph 3
A．To explain the causes of poverty.
B．To show they are addictive.
C．To stress junk foods’ harm to the poor.
D．To list common bad habits for children.
10. What is mainly talked about in paragraph 5
A．Weight-loss drugs are too expensive for ordinary families.
B．A healthy lifestyle includes exercise and balanced nutrition.
C．Prevention is more important than medicine for obesity.
D．Public attention has been paid to new weight-loss drugs.
11. What is the best title for the passage
A．Childhood Obesity: The Growing Crisis
B．Health Inequality: The Widening Divide
C．Stricter rules: The Call for Action
D．Handling Obesity: UK’s New Ad Rules
D
A major policy challenge with AI is just how skillful it’s become at role-playing as humans. Users now regularly turn to AI chatbots for life advice, mental health support, and even guidance on relationship issues. Safety advocates (提倡者) in the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) recently announced that it’s launching a formal inquiry into seven major companies, focusing on whether their AI chatbots have enough safety preparations to prevent risks like misinformation or improper emotional control. Yet there’s another way to see AI as a policy issue: Could AI one day be worthy of legal rights
Some leading tech firms are taking this question seriously. Last year, AI company Anthropic hired its first “AI welfare researcher”, tasked with studying whether advanced AI systems might deserve reasonable treatment, which includes preventing unnecessary “stress” from overwork so that they can function well or reducing harmful data inputs for overall safer use. Former Southern District of New York judge Katherine B. Forrest, who specializes in AI policy, notes that there may never be widespread agreement on exactly when AI qualifies for moral standing, but as public belief in AI’s capacity grows, courts will eventually have to face this brand-new challenge.
Extending rights to AI also forces a fundamental rethink of what should count as the harm to AI. “If it has balanced emotions like humans, then suffering would certainly be counted,” said Forrest. Traditional law, for instance, focuses on compensating (赔偿) humans for financial losses, physical injuries, or emotional pains. But if future AI has needs and desires entirely different from humans, legal systems must adapt.
Some scholars, like law professor Peter Salib from the University of Houston, argue for giving rights to advanced AI — specifically artificial general intelligence. Salib has written in his work of scholarship that giving AI rights to contracts, property and tort claims would allow it to participate in the economic system and could even benefit humans.
12. Why does the FTC launch the inquiry
A．To identify AI firms’ challenges.
B．To check AI chatbots’ functions.
C．To know AI firms’ security measures.
D．To advocate for AI chatbots’ rights.
13. What can be the reasonable treatment of AI systems
A．Upgrading human orders.
B．Avoiding heavy workload.
C．Allowing data collection.
D．Drafting privacy policies.
14. What encourages Peter Salib to advocate giving AI rights
A．AI’s participation in research.
B．AI’s potential in the economy.
C．AI’s need for legal protection.
D．AI’s difficulty of advancement.
15. What’s the author’s attitude to AI rights
A．Doubtful.
B．Disapproving.
C．Objective.
D．Supportive.

Last month, during my trip to a unique nature reserve in the deep mountains, I had an unforgettable experience that changed my view of wildlife. The sun was setting, casting long shadows across the valley. While I was walking slowly along a quiet, narrow path, a sudden, sharp sound from the thick, tall grass attracted my attention. Curiously, I approached the bushes quietly and was shocked to find a small deer trapped in a discarded plastic net. Its leg was bleeding, and it looked frightened, its eyes filled with terror.
The deer struggled in panic, trying to break free from the “plastic trap” but only making the net tighter. I knew I couldn’t just leave it there in such a dangerous situation, as night was falling and predators might be nearby. Driven by a strong sense of responsibility, I insisted on helping the poor creature, despite the risk of being kicked by its powerful legs. Without hesitation, I knelt down, took out a small knife from my pocket, and began to cut the net with great concentration.
My guide, Tashi, a knowledgeable ranger (护林员)who had worked in the forest for years, hurried over to help. He gently covered the deer’s eyes with his jacket and helped me hold its head to keep it calm. During the whole tiring process, I felt extremely concerned, fearing that the wound might be too deep for the deer to survive on its own.
Fortunately, after we carefully cleaned and tied the wound, the deer finally stood up, shaking its body. It looked at us for a second, then turned around and disappeared into the deep, green woods. I stood there for a long time, watching the empty path where it had just been. At that moment, the forest was quiet and peaceful again. I looked at the sunset and began to think about the relationship between humans and the wild…
47. What happened to the small deer
____________________________________________________________________
48. How did the author and the ranger help the deer
____________________________________________________________________
49. What did the author realize after this experience
____________________________________________________________________

五、书信写作参考范文
Dear Jason,
I’m sorry to hear you were criticized for relying totally on AI to finish homework. I totally understand your upset feeling.
AI is just a helpful tool instead of a replacement for independent thinking. If you always copy answers from AI, you can’t master knowledge and will fall behind. Here are my suggestions. First, finish exercises on your own first. When you meet difficult problems, use AI to explain knowledge points rather than get direct answers. Besides, review the key points AI shows you after class.
Only by thinking independently can you make real progress in study.
I am looking forward to your reply!
Yours,
Li Hua
