Passage 2
William Smith, a famous Great Wall expert and conservationist, and his wife Wu Qi have traveled the globe by the back paths, providing their sons with a unique growing environment. Sun hats, backpacks and sneakers (运动鞋) — these are the day-to-day must-haves for the family.
Most of their trips seem far from relaxing — cultural study in the hot and dry desert, a 53-kilometer hiking tour of New Zealand, a one-day climb to three English mountaintops and a six-day train ride from Beijing to Moscow.
Many assume the family must be wealthy and can afford their global travel, but they are not. Smith says they just choose to spend money on travel and eschew pricey hotels and restaurants where possible. Smith mentions the trip to Moscow as an example. Instead of taking a taxi from the railway station to the hotel, they took the subway. “We crossed the city for saving money, communicated with local people, and saw they are people just like us, everywhere. We arrived at our destination feeling comfortable.”
However, their journeys, which can last weeks or months, have sometimes been inconsistent with their children's schooling. Wu remembers once Smith let their elder son ask for leave so that they could go to New York for a 45-day lecture tour. Therefore the son missed his final exam. Things like that bother the family all the time.
Smith attaches great importance to learning out of the classroom, saying that children might score well on school tests, but traveling outside, in distant lands with different languages, cultures, and political structures, is the real test. “You can only get streetwise on the street. You can only get worldly-wise when seeing the world,” he says.
24. How can we describe the Smiths’ trips
A．Dangerous.
B．Conventional.
C．Pleasant.
D．Challenging.
25. What does the underlined word “eschew” in paragraph 3 mean
A．Avoid.
B．Evaluate.
C．Visit.
D．Compare.
26. What problem does the family meet when traveling
A．They are faced with language barriers.
B．They have scheduling conflicts.
C．They hold different educational ideas.
D．They suffer from a tight budget.
27. Which statement may Smith agree with according to the text
A．Actions speak louder than words.
B．Toughness is the best assistant of will.
C．Man who travels far knows more.
D．There is no royal road to learning.

Passage 4
In recent years, new technologies have changed our daily lives quickly. One of the most talked-about developments is AI. AI helps people do many things, from making phone calls to translating languages. It also helps doctors find diseases more correctly and helps drivers avoid traffic jams.
Another important technology is 5G. It is the fifth generation of mobile network. 5G is much faster than 4G. For example, people can download a movie in just a few seconds. 5G also makes it possible to control smart homes from far away. Many cities in China and around the world are building 5G networks now.

In the future, technology will continue to develop. It is important for teenagers to learn about new technologies and use them wisely. Only in this way can we build a better world.

One day, the ballet teacher in her school was late. Left alone with a group of ballet students, Melanie volunteered to keep them orderly. Watching the girls stretch and spin gracefully, her long-buried love for dancing woke up. Before she knew it, she stepped onto the floor and began dancing freely. All her graceful steps flowed naturally, without any hesitation. The students stared in amazement, attracted by her perfect movements.
“What a performance, Melanie! You are a true ballerina!” said the ballet teacher entering the classroom. Melanie froze, a mix of surprise and shyness flooding over her. The teacher told her she had extraordinary talent that day years ago, yet she was too strict to encourage her back then. She sincerely invited Melanie to join their training team. At last, Melanie picked up her childhood dream again and realized that one’s gift would never fade away no matter how long it was hidden.
