With 19:40 on the clock in the first half of the University of Vermont’s match-up against Albany in March, Josh Speidel caught a pass and scored. The crowd went wild, and the coaches and players of both teams hugged Josh. Josh announced, “I did it! I’m a college basketball player!”
Making a single lay-up (单手上篮) would be no big deal for the average player. But five years ago, Josh suffered a brain injury in a car accident only months after signing with the UVM Catamounts. Josh had offers from 15 universities, but playing for UVM had always been his dream.
After the accident he went into a coma (昏迷) and the doctors told his parents that he might remain in a vegetative state or need round the-clock care for the rest of his life. But his parents never lost faith that their son would wake up, and agreed they wouldn’t tell Josh his terrible prognosis when he did.
Four weeks later, Josh proved them right. Not only did he learn to walk and talk again, soon he was even working out. But the goal of playing basketball was a driving force in Josh’s recovery.
Just a year and a half after the accident, he headed off to Burlington, Vermont to start college. With periodic arm tremors and short-term memory loss, Josh knew he would never play for UVM, but he watched every practice from the sideline sand became an important part of the team. UVMs associate head coach Kyle Cieplicki, who’d been Josh’s lead recruiter, said, “He’s shown the whole team how to handle adversity.”
Now 24, Josh will graduate from UVM in May with a 3.4 GPA. He’s majoring in education and social services, and plans to work with kids. Josh tells people who are struggling with their own challenges,” Always have a goal in your head and chase after it as hard as you can. And whenever you need help, ask.”

Growing pains and gains
It’s not easy to grow up. Actually it’s far from easy. Growing up can be a real “pain” for some of us. We are always doing things that someone else makes us do and aren’t allowed to do all the things we like.

As a young girl my parents forced my sisters and me to do so many things that I never liked. They made me learn to play the violin and then the piano. At that time I hated music, just because it was what they wanted me to do. But looking back now, I am so glad that my parents encouraged me to take music lessons. Music has enriched my life in so many ways. I realize that my parents and teachers were always pushing me along. not because they wanted me to suffer(受苦)but because they wanted me to succeed in life. They’ve always wanted me to have a better life than they did themselves.
Every moment of our lives is either living or dying, so live life to its fullest! We are all going to experience growing pains, but they are just small pains in life. They might seem so huge at the time but we must be strong. Think about how we would feel if we had no fear and live life like that. The future is ours!
A little hard work and sweat never hurt anyone! If we realize that these pains are just small bumps(凸块)on our road to success we will realize that our growing pains are actually growing gains!

A. Growing pains are necessary for us to grow up.

【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。当许多教育工作者担心学生会借助ChatGPT写报告或在作业中作弊时,肯塔基州列克星敦的唐尼·皮尔西老师把ChatGPT纳入了课堂,并引导学生总结了使用ChatGPT对他们的写作、学习的影响。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段末“‘As educators, we haven’t worked out the best way to use AI yet,’ he added. ‘But it’s coming, whether we want it to or not.’ (‘作为教育工作者,我们还没有找到使用人工智能的最佳方式,’他补充道。‘但不管我们愿不愿意,它都会到来。’)”可知,Donnie Piercey认为AI的存在是不可避免的,学生们应该做好与人工智能共存的准备。故选C项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一点“After playing ‘Find the Bot’, Piercey asked his class what skills it helped them learn. ‘How to properly summarize and correctly capitalize words and use commas.’ said one student. Another student felt that sentences written by students ‘have a little more feeling...more flavor.’ (在玩完‘Find the Bot’游戏后,Piercey问他的学生这款游戏帮助他们学习了哪些技能。‘如何正确地总结和正确地大写单词和使用逗号。’一个学生说。另一位学生认为学生写的句子‘更有感觉……更多的味道。’)”可知,学生认为在写作中使用ChatGPT可以正确总结本文,正确使用大小写字母,他们的句子更加生动、有趣、有个性,而不是平淡无味或缺乏表达力。故选D项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段末“They can help students who have trouble putting their thoughts into writing. McCormick said students could use it for suggestions, but should not use it to do all the work. ‘You shouldn’t take advantage of it,’ McCormick said. ‘You’re not learning anything if you type in what you want, and then it gives you the answer.’ (他们可以帮助那些在把自己的想法写下来方面有困难的学生。麦考密克说,学生可以用它来提出建议,但不应该用它来做所有的工作。‘你不应该利用它,’麦考密克说,‘如果你输入你想要的东西,然后它就会给你答案,那你什么也学不到。’)”可知,学生在写作表达有困难时可以求助ChatGPT,其他的工作不能求助,否则最终什么也没学到。故ChatGPT不适合于那些完全依赖ChatGPT的学生。故选A项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Many educators fear students will use the artificial intelligence (AI) tool ChatGPT to write their reports or cheat on homework.But other teachers are including it in the classroom. (许多教育工作者担心学生会使用人工智能(AI)工具ChatGPT写报告或在作业中作弊。但其他老师正在把它纳入课堂。)”结合全文可知,本文主要内容是关于人工智能在教育中的运用,属于科学类。故选D项。

B. Did you make friends
C. Do you enjoy the present time
D. You enjoy remembering your past
E. Many people dreamed to be teachers
F. The most important thing is to feel good at present
G. Future people are usually more successful in work
【答案】16. C 17. D 18. F 19. A 20. G
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了过去、现在和将来三种类型的人的特点。
【16题详解】
根据空前“你考虑过去吗?”及空后“或者你担心未来吗?”可推知,空处也是一个问句,与上下文句式保持一致,再结合“the past”“the future”可知,C项“你享受现在的时光吗?”切题,符合时间顺序。故选C项。
【17题详解】
本段主题句是“Past types.(过去类型)”,根据空前“你有时候想念‘过去美好的时光’”可知,D项“你喜欢回忆你的过去”切题,也是说回忆过去,且D项中“past”与主题句中“Past”呼应,故选D项。
18题详解】
本段主题句是“Present types.(现在类型)”,所以空处是讲述现在类型的人的特点,根据空后“你喜欢和有趣的人做有趣的事。你没有一个健康的生活方式。你避免做困难或者无聊的事”可知,F项“最重要的事就是享受现在”切题,且F项中“at present”与主题句中“Present”呼应。故选F项。
【19题详解】
空处是段落主题句,上文讲到过去类型、现在类型,且本段第一句中提到“for a better future”,所以本段应是讲述“将来类型”的人,A项“将来类型”切题。故选A项。
【20题详解】
根据空后“但是他们不会享受空闲时间,因为他们忙着考虑接下来的事情”可知,空处与空后是转折关系,所以空处应是讲述将来类型的人的积极方面,G项“将来类型的人通常在工作中更成功”切题,且G项中“Future people”与本段主题句呼应。故选G项。

【答案】How to Learn English Efficiently
Nowadays, some students find it easy to learn English, but more students have difficulty learning it, including pronunciation, grammar, word memorization and so on. How do we learn English efficiently
In my opinion, we should make good use of different periods of time to learn English. In English classes, we should follow teachers and actively participate in classroom activities. After class, we should use short periods of time. We can memorize new words before eating and going to bed. Besides, we should focus on reading English articles, listening to English tapes and doing some exercises.
I hope we can find effective ways and seize every opportunity to grasp English knowledge and form our ability to use English.

My sister, Mary, and I were quite different. In my eyes, Mary was quiet and, maybe, cold.
My parents ran a chicken farm. Since my parents were busy with other farm work, I offered to clean the chicken house, on the weekend and each school day after I returned home. It surely wasn’t fun for me, but I was happy to lend a hand. More importantly, the 20 dollars my parents promised me for the job meant much to me, with which I could afford my favorite books and CDs.
Cleaning the dirty chicken house was really a challenge for a 12-year-old like me. For several times, when I stopped by Mary’s room, I knocked at her door and asked whether she would help clean the chicken house However, I got “No” each time. She was indeed cold, I said to myself.
One Saturday, I came back home late due to a class outing. I was anxious and I hated to see the tired and disappointed look on Dad’s face! Luckily, Dad hadn’t come back yet.
注意:

I should help our parents do more work. They are too busy and tired. Dad was so busy that he didn’t have breakfast this morning. I promise I’ll help our parents together with you.” Hearing this, I felt warm and happy. Mary was not cold at all. She was so thoughtful and understanding.
