Recently, Chengdu Shishi Union Middle School in Sichuan held an activity. It asked students to tell the stories of their family heirlooms (传家宝). So that they can learn more about the past, cherish the present, and look forward to the future. More than 300 students took part. They brought photos of their heirlooms to school and shared their stories.
The 14-year-old Song Zhengchen’s heirloom is a cassette radio (磁带收音机). His grandmother bought the radio in the 1980s and listened to the news on it. His mother then used it to listen to music tapes. When Song was young, his mother often played old poems for him on the radio. “There are now many more cool players. But we still keep this one because it recorded beautiful memories of my family,” said Song.
Xiao Yao, 14, won the first prize in the activity. Her heirlooms are some food coupons (粮票). Her grandma used to tell her stories about food shortages (短缺) when she was a kid. Back then, people could only get so much food each month. Even buying rice needed a special coupon. Xiao was amazed by this. She said, “My grandma wants me to be thankful for what we have today and work hard for a better tomorrow.”
Guo Kexing’s heirloom is a medal from his great-grandfather. He took part in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea (抗美援朝战争). For the 13-year-old, the medal stands as an honor (荣誉) for his family. “Whenever I see my great-grandfather’s medal, I feel very proud. In my heart, my great-grandfather is a hero. I see him as an example and will make my country a better place in his honor,” said Guo.

Back in New York, I am fighting fires as the assistant captain (副队长) of a volunteer fire company.
I still remember my first fire. I was the second volunteer on the scene. The captain was talking with the homeowner, who was surely having one of the worst days of her life. At midnight, she was standing outside in the pouring rain, under an umbrella, barefoot while her house was in flames (在燃烧中).
The other volunteer, who had arrived just before me, was asked to go inside and save the homeowner’s dog. The captain then waved me over. He said, “Bezos, I need you to go upstairs past the fire, and get this woman a pair of shoes.” So, not exactly what I was hoping for, but off I went—up the stairs, down the hall, past the “real” firefighters, who were pretty much done putting out the fire at this point, into the master bedroom to get a pair of shoes.
Now I know what you’re thinking, but I’m no hero. (Laughter) I carried the shoes downstairs where I met the other volunteer with the precious dog. We took our treasures outside to the homeowner, where, not surprisingly, his received much more attention than mine.
A few weeks later, the company received a letter from the homeowner thanking us for saving her home. The act of kindness she noted above all others was that someone had even gotten her a pair of shoes.
Here, I would offer this reminder: don’t wait. Don’t wait until you make your first million to make a difference in somebody’s life. If you have something to give, give it now.
Not every day is going to offer us a chance to save somebody’s life, but every day offers us an opportunity to affect one. So get in the game. Save the shoes.

8. What message does Bezos express from his experience
A. Don’t try to affect anybody until you are rich.

C. Every day presents an opportunity to make great changes.
D. Being a volunteer is more like taking part in a game.
【答案】5. C 6. D 7. A 8. B

When talking about new technology, you will probably think of artificial intelligence (AI). But have you heard of AI chips (芯片) Companies around the world that develop AI need this kind of chip, making it very important in the technology field.
To learn about AI chips, we first need to talk about graphics cards (显卡). They are a kind of computer chip that
makes images (图像) look better and clearer. The main part of a graphics card is the GPU, or graphics processing unit (图形处理器). It was developed by NVIDIA in the late 1990s. Although it was first made for video games, it has amazing computing power (计算能力).
For traditional computers, their CPU (central processing unit) processes one piece of data at a time. But a GPU can process many pieces of data at once. This is why gamers buy GPUs to have a better video game experience.
However, as technology developed, GPU’s real superpower turned out to be its use in training AI models. So, AI chips were built based on GPUs. AI companies such as OpenAI and Google use AI chips to speed up and improve the way their AI “learns” things. These chips are especially useful for making large language models perform better, such as the well-known ChatGPT. With their excellent ability to deal with a lot of data at once, there’s no telling how far they’ll go.
For us, if we have AI chips in our smartphones , data processing can happen on the phone rather than in the cloud. This makes phones work faster, keep information safer, and use less energy.
9. How is GPU different from CPU
A. It can do computing better.
B. It can show images to viewers.
C. It can process data one piece at a time.
D. It can work for video games.
10. Which of the following statements about AI chips is correct
A. AI chips are mainly used to improve the performance of graphics cards in smartphones.
B. AI chips are only used by Google and OpenAI.
C. The development of AI chips led to the creation of GPUs.
D. Using AI chips can improve the data processing speed of smart devices.
11. What is the last paragraph mainly about
A. Which smartphones perform better.
B. How smartphones process data.
C. Good things about AI chips in smartphones.
D. The future development of smartphones.
12.What is the main focus of the article
A. The development history of AI chips
B. The business development of NVIDIA
C. The future trends in mobile phone development
D. The influence of AI chips on AI model training
【答案】ADCD
【解析】文章介绍AI芯片，特别是基于GPU的AI芯片如何改进和加速AI模型的训练过程。
9.A 文章中提到，传统的CPU一次处理一个数据，而GPU可以同时处理许多数据。这表明GPU在处理大量数据方面具有优势，因此选项A 正确。
10.D文章最后一段提到，如果我们的智能手机中有AI芯片，数据处理可以在手机上进行，而不是在云端，这使得手机工作更快，信息更安全，能耗更低。这表明使用AI芯片可以提高智能设备的数据处理速度，因此选项D正确。
11.C.最后一段主要讨论了如果我们的智能手机中有AI芯片，它们将如何使手机工作更快、更安全、更节能。这表明这一段主要关注AI芯片在智能手机中的好处，因此选项C正确。
12.D.文章主要讨论了AI芯片的用途，特别是它们如何基于GPU构建，并且如何被AI公司用来加速和改善AI模型的训练。文章还提到了AI芯片在智能手机中的应用，但主要焦点是AI芯片如何影响AI模型的训练，因此选项D正确。

We usually learn new things for amusement and professional development. No matter what the purpose of learning is, you should take effort to learn something new every day. Only a few of us are lifelong learners, but most people are busy with their habitual everyday routines (日常工作) and activities. However, learning something new daily offers great benefits (好处) and possibilities. You can find learning chances everywhere since people are overwhelmed with free sources of knowledge these days. Incorporate (吸收) a habit of learning something new into your daily routine and enrich your life with fresh ideas, new people and inspiration.
New information promotes (促进) self-improvement and personal growth. Successful people say that personal growth is the key to their achievements, that’s why they are never satisfied with what they’ve already learned. When we learn something new, we get new experience and skills. It means we deepen our understanding of the world and unleash (释放) our hidden talent. Moreover, learning new things will make you proud and increase your self-confidence.
I was always too busy to add an additional point to my daily schedule. That’s the main reason why I never had enough time to read and learn new things for my hobbies. However, I’ve learnt that having one more task on my to-do list is the best way to structure my daily routine and improve my time perception (观念). I’ve realized I should manage time wisely. Stop complaining that you don’t have free time to read. Learn to use your time more
efficiently so that you can do things you want to do.
I realize that I’ve met most of my friends while learning new things and obtaining new experiences. When you join an organization or a club, you are surrounded with like-minded people and just uncommon characters. Chances are you’ll find close friends among them.
Develop a habit of learning something new each day and you’ll be sorry you didn’t. It can improve the quality of your life and helped you both professionally and personally. Do you think learning something new daily is important

14. 词义猜测题。根据“When we learn something new, we get new experience and skills. It means we deepen our understanding of the world and unleash (释放) our hidden talent.”可知，我们学习到的新的经验和技能能够让我们加深对世界的理解以及释放隐藏的天赋，此处it代指上句中的“get new experience and skills”。故选B。
15. 推理判断题。根据“I was always too busy to add an additional point to my daily schedule. That’s the main reason why I never had enough time to read”以及“I’ve learnt that having one more task on my to-do list is the best way to structure my daily routine and improve my time perception (观念).

第二节：阅读短文，从文后所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一个多余选项。
In high schools, as subjects increase, maybe you can’t fully understand what you are learning. 17 This process is called self-reflection (反省).
Self-reflection begins with slowing down and calming yourself, including calming your mind. Then you can give your brain a chance to think about what it has already received. Some people prefer to do self-reflection only in their minds. 18 Either of the methods works. It depends on your own personal learning ability.
How do you learn to do self-reflection 19 First, choose a proper time to do it. Every night before going to bed, you can do self-reflection over what you have learned in the daytime. When you complete a unit of study, you can do self-reflection by drawing a mind map. Secondly, find a quiet place and take out your reflection diary. Write down some notes on the new things that you have just learned. And connect them with the previous (以前的) knowledge. As a result, you can understand them better. 20 This will help you remember to look for answers when you are working on the same topic next time.
Successful students always know self-reflection is important. If you have never taken the time to do it, try it now!
A. Others tend (倾向) to keep diaries or take notes.
B. You can take the following steps.
C. So it is necessary to stop yourself to think about what you have been learning.
D. At last, think about the questions you are not sure of and write them down.

Our teacher, Angie, singled me out to keep practicing while everyone else got to relax. I felt ashamed (羞愧的) as my teammates watched me fail so many times. Finally I got so tired of practicing that I didn’t care about doing it right.
“Are you giving up on me, Steve ” Angie asked.
“Yes, I am,” I shouted. Angie sent me inside the music room where I cried out. Then she came in and said. “Don’t be sad. I believe you can make it!” She told me never to give up. She left me alone and I realized Angie was right—by giving up, I was also giving up on the team and myself.
With her comfort, I decided to go on practicing. However, I still couldn’t play well. Knowing my difficulties, my teammates gave me a hand. They spent three more hours practicing with me every week. Thanks to their support and help, I began to keep pace with them. Later, we performed wonderfully in an important show.
In the whole process, I was taught that although we each had our own job to do in a show, it would take all of us working together to make the show great. I felt accepted and made great progress. I love everyone in the band. I can’t imagine what my school life would be like without them.
41．What did Steve think of playing the drum one month after he joined the band
42．Why did Steve want to give up playing the drum
43．How did Steve make great progress in playing the drum
44．What do you think is the most important when we work as a team Why (at least 30 words)
【答案】41．It got difficult. 42．Because he got tired of practicing. 43．With the support and help of his teammates. 44．I think the most important thing for a team is cohesion. Because a team without cohesion is like a scattered sand, everyone must have a common goal, constantly moving forward for the team’s goals, and always having a team spirit in mind.
【解析】本文是一篇记叙文，主要介绍了作者加入了乐队当鼓手，中途差点放弃，最后在队友的鼓励下坚持下来了。
41．根据“At first it was easy, but a month later, it got difficult.”可知，Steve在加入乐队一个月后感觉打鼓变得困难了，故填It got difficult.
42．根据“Finally I got so tired of practicing that I didn’t care about doing it right.”可知，Steve想放弃是因为厌倦了练习，故填Because he got tired of practicing.
43．根据“Knowing my difficulties, my teammates gave me a hand. They spent three more hours practicing with me every week. Thanks to their support and help, I began to keep pace with them.”可推知，Steve得到了队友的支持和帮助，所以取得了巨大进步，故填With the support and help of his teammates.
44．开放性作答，言之有理即可。参考答案为I think the most important thing for a team is cohesion. Because a team without cohesion is like a scattered sand, everyone must have a common goal, constantly moving forward for the team’s goals, and always having a team spirit in mind.

例文
Helping Each Other Makes the World Wonderful
In our life, we often help others, and also get help from others. When we help our classmates, we will develop our friendship. When we help some old people, we will feel happy. I think giving is better than receiving. And I think helping others is helping ourselves.
I still remember my teacher asked me to help Mike with his math months ago. At first, I felt a little nervous because I was not so good at math. So, before helping him, I went over the textbook over and over again and did lots of exercises. To my surprise, some difficult problems that I couldn’t understand before were worked out by myself. With my help, Mike made great progress in math, too. Then, I realize that helping others also does good to ourselves. Helping each other makes the world wonderful.
In a word, I hope everyone can take an active part in helping others. Let’s make our world filled with love together.2024年中考模拟考试卷（辽宁）

The 14-year-old Song Zhengchen’s heirloom is a cassette radio (磁带收音机). His grandmother bought the radio in the 1980s and listened to the news on it. His mother then used it to listen to music tapes. When Song was young, his mother often played old poems for him on the radio. “There are now many more cool players. But we still keep this one because it recorded beautiful memories of my family,” said Song.
Xiao Yao, 14, won the first prize in the activity. Her heirlooms are some food coupons (粮票). Her grandma used to tell her stories about food shortages (短缺) when she was a kid. Back then, people could only get so much food each month. Even buying rice needed a special coupon. Xiao was amazed by this. She said, “My grandma wants me to be thankful for what we have today and work hard for a better tomorrow.”
Guo Kexing’s heirloom is a medal from his great-grandfather. He took part in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea (抗美援朝战争). For the 13-year-old, the medal stands as an honor (荣誉) for his family. “Whenever I see my great-grandfather’s medal, I feel very proud. In my heart, my great-grandfather is a hero. I see him as an example and will make my country a better place in his honor,” said Guo.

Back in New York, I am fighting fires as the assistant captain (副队长) of a volunteer fire company.
I still remember my first fire. I was the second volunteer on the scene. The captain was talking with the homeowner, who was surely having one of the worst days of her life. At midnight, she was standing outside in the pouring rain, under an umbrella, barefoot while her house was in flames (在燃烧中).
The other volunteer, who had arrived just before me, was asked to go inside and save the homeowner’s dog. The captain then waved me over. He said, “Bezos, I need you to go upstairs past the fire, and get this woman a pair of
shoes.” So, not exactly what I was hoping for, but off I went—up the stairs, down the hall, past the “real” firefighters, who were pretty much done putting out the fire at this point, into the master bedroom to get a pair of shoes.
Now I know what you’re thinking, but I’m no hero. (Laughter) I carried the shoes downstairs where I met the other volunteer with the precious dog. We took our treasures outside to the homeowner, where, not surprisingly, his received much more attention than mine.
A few weeks later, the company received a letter from the homeowner thanking us for saving her home. The act of kindness she noted above all others was that someone had even gotten her a pair of shoes.
Here, I would offer this reminder: don’t wait. Don’t wait until you make your first million to make a difference in somebody’s life. If you have something to give, give it now.
Not every day is going to offer us a chance to save somebody’s life, but every day offers us an opportunity to affect one. So get in the game. Save the shoes.
5. What was the woman’s situation like as the volunteers arrived
A. She was wet in the rain. B. She didn’t have many clothes on.
C. She stood outside her house without shoes. D. She was caught in her burning house.
6. What did the captain ask Bezos to do during his first fire
A. Put out the fire. B. Save a dog.
C. Talk to the homeowner. D. Get a pair of shoes.
7. What can we learn from the text

B. Bezos considers himself a real hero after the fire.
C. Bezos got more attention than the dog as they came back.
D. Bezos disagrees with saving tiny things from fires.
8. What message does Bezos express from his experience

C. Every day presents an opportunity to make great changes.

When talking about new technology, you will probably think of artificial intelligence (AI). But have you heard of AI chips (芯片) Companies around the world that develop AI need this kind of chip, making it very important in
the technology field.
To learn about AI chips, we first need to talk about graphics cards (显卡). They are a kind of computer chip that makes images (图像) look better and clearer. The main part of a graphics card is the GPU, or graphics processing unit (图形处理器). It was developed by NVIDIA in the late 1990s. Although it was first made for video games, it has amazing computing power (计算能力).
For traditional computers, their CPU (central processing unit) processes one piece of data at a time. But a GPU can process many pieces of data at once. This is why gamers buy GPUs to have a better video game experience.
However, as technology developed, GPU’s real superpower turned out to be its use in training AI models. So, AI chips were built based on GPUs. AI companies such as OpenAI and Google use AI chips to speed up and improve the way their AI “learns” things. These chips are especially useful for making large language models perform better, such as the well-known ChatGPT. With their excellent ability to deal with a lot of data at once, there’s no telling how far they’ll go.
For us, if we have AI chips in our smartphones , data processing can happen on the phone rather than in the cloud. This makes phones work faster, keep information safer, and use less energy.
9. How is GPU different from CPU
A. It can do computing better.
B. It can show images to viewers.
C. It can process data one piece at a time.
D. It can work for video games.
10. Which of the following statements about AI chips is correct
A. AI chips are mainly used to improve the performance of graphics cards in smartphones.
B. AI chips are only used by Google and OpenAI.
C. The development of AI chips led to the creation of GPUs.
D. Using AI chips can improve the data processing speed of smart devices.
11. What is the last paragraph mainly about
A. Which smartphones perform better.
B. How smartphones process data.
C. Good things about AI chips in smartphones.
D. The future development of smartphones.
12.What is the main focus of the article
A. The development history of AI chips
B. The business development of NVIDIA
C. The future trends in mobile phone development
D. The influence of AI chips on AI model training.
D
We usually learn new things for amusement and professional development. No matter what the purpose of learning is, you should take effort to learn something new every day. Only a few of us are lifelong learners, but most people are busy with their habitual everyday routines (日常工作) and activities. However, learning something new daily offers great benefits (好处) and possibilities. You can find learning chances everywhere since people are overwhelmed with free sources of knowledge these days. Incorporate (吸收) a habit of learning something new into your daily routine and enrich your life with fresh ideas, new people and inspiration.
New information promotes (促进) self-improvement and personal growth. Successful people say that personal growth is the key to their achievements, that’s why they are never satisfied with what they’ve already learned. When we learn something new, we get new experience and skills. It means we deepen our understanding of the world and unleash (释放) our hidden talent. Moreover, learning new things will make you proud and increase your self-confidence.
I was always too busy to add an additional point to my daily schedule. That’s the main reason why I never had enough time to read and learn new things for my hobbies. However, I’ve learnt that having one more task on my to-do list is the best way to structure my daily routine and improve my time perception (观念). I’ve realized I should manage time wisely. Stop complaining that you don’t have free time to read. Learn to use your time more efficiently so that you can do things you want to do.
I realize that I’ve met most of my friends while learning new things and obtaining new experiences. When you join an organization or a club, you are surrounded with like-minded people and just uncommon characters. Chances are you’ll find close friends among them.
Develop a habit of learning something new each day and you’ll be sorry you didn’t. It can improve the quality of your life and helped you both professionally and personally. Do you think learning something new daily is important

第二节：阅读短文，从文后所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一个多余选项。
In high schools, as subjects increase, maybe you can’t fully understand what you are learning. 17 This process is called self-reflection (反省).
Self-reflection begins with slowing down and calming yourself, including calming your mind. Then you can give your brain a chance to think about what it has already received. Some people prefer to do self-reflection only in their minds. 18 Either of the methods works. It depends on your own personal learning ability.
How do you learn to do self-reflection 19 First, choose a proper time to do it. Every night before going to bed, you can do self-reflection over what you have learned in the daytime. When you complete a unit of study, you can do self-reflection by drawing a mind map. Secondly, find a quiet place and take out your reflection diary. Write down some notes on the new things that you have just learned. And connect them with the previous (以前的) knowledge. As a result, you can understand them better. 20 This will help you remember to look for answers when you are working on the same topic next time.
Successful students always know self-reflection is important. If you have never taken the time to do it, try it now!
A. Others tend (倾向) to keep diaries or take notes.
B. You can take the following steps.
C. So it is necessary to stop yourself to think about what you have been learning.
D. At last, think about the questions you are not sure of and write them down.
E. Self-reflection works at the proper time.

I joined a band (乐队) as a drummer in my middle school. I thought it would be fun playing the drum and meeting new friends. At first it was easy, but a month later, it got difficult. I was the only one who couldn’t keep pace (节奏) with the other players.
Our teacher, Angie, singled me out to keep practicing while everyone else got to relax. I felt ashamed (羞愧的) as my teammates watched me fail so many times. Finally I got so tired of practicing that I didn’t care about doing it
right.
“Are you giving up on me, Steve ” Angie asked.
“Yes, I am,” I shouted. Angie sent me inside the music room where I cried out. Then she came in and said. “Don’t be sad. I believe you can make it!” She told me never to give up. She left me alone and I realized Angie was right—by giving up, I was also giving up on the team and myself.
With her comfort, I decided to go on practicing. However, I still couldn’t play well. Knowing my difficulties, my teammates gave me a hand. They spent three more hours practicing with me every week. Thanks to their support and help, I began to keep pace with them. Later, we performed wonderfully in an important show.
In the whole process, I was taught that although we each had our own job to do in a show, it would take all of us working together to make the show great. I felt accepted and made great progress. I love everyone in the band. I can’t imagine what my school life would be like without them.
