Xie Xiaohua has been working as a special education teacher for the past 26 years. Because of her adherence (坚守) to her work, she has won the heart of hundreds of children in special needs.
“It is my greatest happiness to care for them,” said the 48-year-old Xie, who has been working at a special education school since 1996. Fully aware of the difference between special education and general education, Xie provides specialized care to each student according to their physical conditions and helps them with learning and living. For example, she had taken the responsibility of looking after a student with physical disability for nine years until the student graduated from the school.
In 2013, Xie’s workload became heavier after she was assigned(指派) to work at the school’s rehabilitation (康复) center, which had been built ten years ago. To make sure that every child received suitable training, she worked out specific plans for them. For children with mental disability, Xie patiently taught them to master basic skills. She also spent lots of time training children with hearing and speech problems to work on their pronunciation.
Starting in 2015, the school carried out an activity of offering door-to-door education to students who could not attend school because of severe physical disabilities. Xie was among over 30 teachers tasked with tutoring(辅导) those students. The teachers have walked over 60, 000 kilometers over the past seven years because many villages where the students live are located in mountainous areas.
“Although we do feel tired sometimes, we feel our work is valuable after seeing their progress, even just a little bit.” Xie said.
4. Which statement may the author agree with according to the text
A. Xie’s students have difficulty living a normal life.
B. Xie’s students’ homes are very far away from school.
C. Xie’s students can’t catch up with others in their studies.
D. All Xie’s students can be provided door-to-door education.
5. When was the rehabilitation center in Xie’s school established
A. In 1996. B. In 2003. C. In 2013. D. In 2015.
6. Which of the following can best describe Xie Xiaohua’s work in the school
A. Tiring but meaningful. B. Boring but rewarding.
C. Demanding but well-paid. D. Dangerous but respectable.
7. What is the text mainly about
A. The changes in a special school. B. The students in a special school.
C. The education in a special school. D. A devoted teacher in a special school.

Heavy traffic doesn’t stop big mammals like bears from crossing highways —nor does it keep smaller creatures from being squished (压扁) by cars. In just two years along one highway in Utah, more than 100 animals were killed in traffic accidents. In the United States, there are 21 endangered species whose survival is threatened by traffic accidents.
However, there’s one way to reduce crashes between cars and animals crossing the road: wildlife under and overpasses. Looking much like a regular overpass for cars, but decorated with native plants, they aren’t particularly noticeable unless you know what you’re looking for. The drivers may not be able to see the under crossings. But they’re helping countless species to pass the highways, from gold monkeys in Brazil to water voles in London.
Washington State is one of the latest to join in. Building its first wildlife bridge began in 2015 over Interstate 90(1-90), which runs from Seattle to Boston. Though it’s just a bare set of arches now, with native plants to be planted next year, deer and wolves are already using it. Along with six underpasses built since 2013, these crossings are the first in a set of 20 along a 15-mile stretch of highway on I-90. These passes will allow black bears and mountain lions to pass through what was once an impenetrable road.
These wildlife crossings aren’t just about saving individual animals —they’re about species survival, too. I-90 is an economically important east-west lifeline in the state. But many of the animals mostly want to move from north to south. Those animals on the south of the highway got trapped in an island. Inbreeding (近亲繁殖) became a potential problem. Localized extinction happens if they don’t have genetic variability (变化). The Snoqualmie overpass helps reconnect these isolated (隔绝的) populations. I-90’s underpasses are important in connecting waterways and species.
8. Why does the author talk about the heavy traffic in Paragraph 1
A. To show the results of wildlife protection.
B. To indicate its serious threat of over speeding.
C. To raise people’s awareness of the behavior of wildlife.
D. To introduce the following way to protect wild animals.
9. In order to save wildlife, what is suggested to do according to Paragraph 2
A. Letting drivers see highways. B. Building highway crossing for animals.
C. Decorating busy roads with native plants. D. Noticing under and overpasses while driving.
10. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “impenetrable” in Paragraph 3
A. Unavoidable. B. Untouchable. C. Undesirable. D. Uncrossable.
11. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A. Isolated Wildlife: A Potential Problem
B. Highway Accidents: A Killer of Wild Animals
C. Wildlife Bridges: A Solution to Wildlife Protection
D. Wildlife Crossing: A Regular Overpass for Wildlife
D
To battle the plagiarism (抄袭), some schools in America have responded to ChatGPT by taking action, according to the New York Times.
New York City public schools, for example, recently prevented ChatGPT access on school computers and networks, saying “concerns about negative influence on students learning, and concerns about the safety of content.” Schools in other cities, including Seattle, have also limited its use.
A US’ online course provider Study. com recently asked 1, 000 students over the age of 18 about the use of ChatGPT in the classroom. The responses were surprising. Around 89 percent said they’ve used it on homework. Over 50 percent said they used ChatGPT to write an essay, while 22 percent admitted to having asked ChatGPT for a paper outline.
While the chatbot (聊天机器人) is raising fears of academic cheating on schools, some educators believe introducing the Al-ended tools to the academics could even overturn the traditional education.
“For researchers, finding valuable scientific problems and solving them in creative ways come first, and then writing academic papers. Some AI-enabled writing tools can create words or even write long text based on a few keywords shortly,” said Zhu Wei, a law professor in China. For example, ChatGPT helps writers gather writing materials for their papers, which not only increases the efficiency of the work, but also allows researchers to devote more energy to more creative work.
“Whether to use ChatGPT depends on whether to use it correctly. For those students who just use it to deal with homework or exams,” Zhu said, “this is putting the cart before the horse, which should be limited.” To avoid this problem, Zhu suggested introducing soft wares to help educators. He believes schools should accept ChatGPT as a teaching aid to unlock creativity in students. “The most important part of such tools is not to replace human thinking, but to improve human thinking.” Zhu said.
12. How does the author describe the results of Study. com’s research in Paragraph 3
A By listing figures. B. By conducting tests.
C. By giving examples. D. By referring to other studies.
13. What does Paragraph 5 mainly tell us about AI-ended tools
A. AI-ended tools help increase productivity.
B. AI-ended tools help scientists settle problems.
C. AI-ended tools help people in academic.
D. AI-ended tools help writers collect writing materials.
14. What is the author’s attitude towards the usage of ChatGPT
A. Disagreeable. B. Favorable. C. Objective. D. Unconcerned.
15. What may the author talk about in the following paragraph
A Showing how software is applied in schools.
B. Giving examples of how students use ChatGPT.
C. Listing advantages of using AI-ended tools properly in schools.
D. Introducing ways to use ChatGPT to improve students’ creativity.

For Sara’s family, decorating the yard was always a celebration for the New year. This year it was Sara’s father’s turn to hang colorful lights all round their roof according to family tradition.
On New Year’s Eve, light enveloped the whole house. Everything seemed to be going fine until misfortune happened: Sara’s father passed away suddenly. Sara was very sad. However, seeing the hanging lights, she was in a state of feeling happy, gaining a tiny thread of relief.
The lights reminded her of her beloved father. Taking them down meant the final connection with her father would disappear, which she wasn’t ready to accept. So she kept them. One day in March, Sara received a typed note in the mail. “Take your New Year’s lights down!” The letter read, which made Sara angry. She couldn’t hold back her anger, and shared it with her story online. Messages of support flooded into Sara’s inbox quickly. Besides, one day, Sara was driving back home and surprised to find that New Year’s decorations reappeared on houses in her neighborhood —her neighbors had made a collective(共同的) decision to hang their lights back up in honor of her father!
She never learned the sender’s identity. But for her, that hurtful deed was far less important than so many acts of kindness. A few weeks later, Sara eventually took down the decorations. “It was hard. But due to all the support and love, it was not as hard as I thought.”

Xie Xiaohua has been working as a special education teacher for the past 26 years. Because of her adherence (坚守) to her work, she has won the heart of hundreds of children in special needs.
“It is my greatest happiness to care for them,” said the 48-year-old Xie, who has been working at a special education school since 1996. Fully aware of the difference between special education and general education, Xie provides specialized care to each student according to their physical conditions and helps them with learning and living.

C
Heavy traffic doesn’t stop big mammals like bears from crossing highways —nor does it keep smaller creatures from being squished (压扁) by cars. In just two years along one highway in Utah, more than 100 animals were killed in traffic accidents. In the United States, there are 21 endangered species whose survival is threatened by traffic accidents.
However, there’s one way to reduce crashes between cars and animals crossing the road: wildlife under and overpasses. Looking much like a regular overpass for cars, but decorated with native plants, they aren’t particularly noticeable unless you know what you’re looking for. The drivers may not be able to see the under crossings. But they’re helping countless species to pass the highways, from gold monkeys in Brazil to water voles in London.
Washington State is one of the latest to join in. Building its first wildlife bridge began in 2015 over Interstate 90(1-90), which runs from Seattle to Boston. Though it’s just a bare set of arches now, with native plants to be planted next year, deer and wolves are already using it. Along with six underpasses built since 2013, these crossings are the first in a set of 20 along a 15-mile stretch of highway on I-90. These passes will allow black bears and mountain lions to pass through what was once an impenetrable road.
These wildlife crossings aren’t just about saving individual animals —they’re about species survival, too. I-90 is an economically important east-west lifeline in the state. But many of the animals mostly want to move from north to south. Those animals on the south of the highway got trapped in an island. Inbreeding (近亲繁殖) became a potential problem. Localized extinction happens if they don’t have genetic variability (变化). The Snoqualmie overpass helps reconnect these isolated (隔绝的) populations. I-90’s underpasses are important in connecting waterways and species.
8. Why does the author talk about the heavy traffic in Paragraph 1
A. To show the results of wildlife protection.
B. To indicate its serious threat of over speeding.
C. To raise people’s awareness of the behavior of wildlife.
D. To introduce the following way to protect wild animals.
9. In order to save wildlife, what is suggested to do according to Paragraph 2
A. Letting drivers see highways. B. Building highway crossing for animals.
C. Decorating busy roads with native plants. D. Noticing under and overpasses while driving.
10. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “impenetrable” in Paragraph 3
A. Unavoidable. B. Untouchable. C. Undesirable. D. Uncrossable.
11. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text

To battle the plagiarism (抄袭), some schools in America have responded to ChatGPT by taking action, according to the New York Times.
New York City public schools, for example, recently prevented ChatGPT access on school computers and networks, saying “concerns about negative influence on students learning, and concerns about the safety of content.” Schools in other cities, including Seattle, have also limited its use.
A US’ online course provider Study. com recently asked 1 000 students over the age of 18 about the use of ChatGPT in the classroom. The responses were surprising. Around 89 percent said they’ve used it on homework. Over 50 percent said they used ChatGPT to write an essay, while 22 percent admitted to having asked ChatGPT for a paper outline.
While the chatbot (聊天机器人) is raising fears of academic cheating on schools, some educators believe introducing the Al-ended tools to the academics could even overturn the traditional education.
“For researchers, finding valuable scientific problems and solving them in creative ways come first, and then writing academic papers. Some AI-enabled writing tools can create words or even write long text based on a few keywords shortly,” said Zhu Wei, a law professor in China. For example, ChatGPT helps writers gather writing materials for their papers, which not only increases the efficiency of the work, but also allows researchers to devote more energy to more creative work.
“Whether to use ChatGPT depends on whether to use it correctly. For those students who just use it to deal with homework or exams,” Zhu said, “this is putting the cart before the horse, which should be limited.” To avoid this problem, Zhu suggested introducing soft wares to help educators. He believes schools should accept ChatGPT as a teaching aid to unlock creativity in students. “The most important part of such tools is not to replace human thinking, but to improve human thinking.” Zhu said.
12. How does the author describe the results of Study. com’s research in Paragraph 3
A. By listing figures. B. By conducting tests.
C. By giving examples. D. By referring to other studies.
13. What does Paragraph 5 mainly tell us about AI-ended tools
A. AI-ended tools help increase productivity.
B. AI-ended tools help scientists settle problems.
C. AI-ended tools help people in academic.
D. AI-ended tools help writers collect writing materials.
14. What is the author’s attitude towards the usage of ChatGPT
A. Disagreeable. B. Favorable. C. Objective. D. Unconcerned.
15. What may the author talk about in the following paragraph
A. Showing how software is applied in schools.
B. Giving examples of how students use ChatGPT.
C. Listing advantages of using AI-ended tools properly in schools.
D. Introducing ways to use ChatGPT to improve students’ creativity.

第四部分 任务型阅读(共两节，满分20分)
For Sara’s family, decorating the yard was always a celebration for the New year. This year it was Sara’s father’s turn to hang colorful lights all round their roof according to family tradition.
On New Year’s Eve, light enveloped the whole house. Everything seemed to be going fine until misfortune happened: Sara’s father passed away suddenly. Sara was very sad. However, seeing the hanging lights, she was in a state of feeling happy, gaining a tiny thread of relief.
The lights reminded her of her beloved father. Taking them down meant the final connection with her father would disappear, which she wasn’t ready to accept. So she kept them. One day in March, Sara received a typed note in the mail. “Take your New Year’s lights down!” The letter read, which made Sara angry. She couldn’t hold back her anger, and shared it with her story online. Messages of support flooded into Sara’s inbox quickly. Besides, one day, Sara was driving back home and surprised to find that New Year’s decorations reappeared on houses in her neighborhood —her neighbors had made a collective(共同的) decision to hang their lights back up in honor of her father!
She never learned the sender’s identity. But for her, that hurtful deed was far less important than so many acts of kindness. A few weeks later, Sara eventually took down the decorations. “It was hard. But due to all the support and love, it was not as hard as I thought.”
