Alice Moore is a teenager entrepreneur (企业家), who in May 2015 set up her business AilieCandy. By the time she was 13, her company was worth millions of dollars with the invention of a super-sweet treat that could save kids’ teeth, instead of destroying them.
It all began when Moore visited a bank with her dad. On the outing, she was offered a candy bar. However, her dad reminded her that sugary treats were bad for her teeth. But Moore was sick of missing out on candies. So she desired to get round the warning, “Why can’t I make a healthy candy that’s good for my teeth so that my
parents can’t say no to it ” With that in mind, Moore asked her dad if she could start her own candy company. He recommended that she do some research and talk to dentists about what a healthier candy would contain.
With her dad’s permission, she spent the next two years researching online and conducting experiments to get a recipe that was both tasty and tooth-friendly. She also approached dentists to learn more about teeth cleaning.
Consequently, she succeeded in making a kind of candy only using natural sweeteners, which can reduce oral bacteria.
Moore then used her savings to get her business of the ground. Afterwards, she and her father secured their first business meeting with a supermarket owner, who finally agreed to sell Moore’s product-Cancandy.
As CanCandy’s success grows, so does Moore’s credibility as a young entrepreneur. Moore is enthusiastic
about the candy she created, and she’s also positive about what the future might bring. She hopes that every kid can have a clean mouth and a broad smile.
Meanwhile, with her parents’ help, Moore is generally able to live a normal teenage life. Although she

January 20, 2025, a Chinese tech company named DeepSeek made a new AI called DeepSeek-R1, which has emerged as a pioneer especially in educational technology. This smart program can solve math problems, write
code, and answer questions like top models such as OpenAI’s GPT-4o, but it costs much less to build. It combines advanced machine learning methods to provide personalized learning solutions for students worldwide.
Unlike traditional AI models that rely on pre-programmed answers, DeepSeek-R1 learns by trying many times and getting better, like how students practice maths. DeepSeek-R1 improves by itself by using reinforcement (强化) learning to simulate (模拟) human reasoning. This allows it to guide students through problem-solving step by step, much like a patient tutor. For example, when a student struggles with a math equation, DeepSeek-R1 doesn’t just
give the answer; it breaks down the logic, identifies errors, and encourages critical thinking.
The model’s applications extend beyond academics. In language learning, it analyzes students’ pronunciation
第 8页/共 18页
through AI speech recognition and offers real-time response. For teachers, DeepSeek-R1 can provide lesson plans
that agree with curriculum standards and even predict students’ learning difficulties based on historical data. Its “adaptive testing” feature creates customized exams that adjust difficulty according to individual progress.
However, challenges remain. Critics argue that over-reliance on AI might reduce human interaction in
education. DeepSeek’s developers address this by emphasizing its role as a “supplement (补充), not a replacement.” As Dr. Li, a DeepSeek researcher, stated, “Our goal is to free teachers from repetitive tasks so they can focus on
inspiring creativity.”
Looking ahead, DeepSeek aims to bring virtual reality (VR) into its platform, allowing students to explore
historical events or scientific concepts in immersive 3D environments. While ethical (道德的) debates about AI in education still exist, one thing is clear: tools like DeepSeek are reshaping how we learn, combining technology with human wisdom.
46. What makes DeepSeek-R1 different from traditional AI models
A. It uses pre-programmed answers.
B It focuses on memorization techniques.
C. It creates fixed test patterns for all the students.
D. It employs reinforcement learning for reasoning.
47. What does the underlined word “adaptive” in paragraph 3 most likely mean
A. fixed B. adjustable C. complex D. outdated
48. What future development does DeepSeek plan to add to its platform A. Real-time response to strengthen real-time classroom interaction.
B. Virtual reality (VR) to enable immersive learning experiences.
C. Advanced robotics to assist in repetitive tasks.
D. New technology to secure student data.
49. What’s the author’s attitude towards the use of DeepSeek-R1
A. doubtful B. critical C. positive D. indifferent
50. What is the main purpose of writing the passage
A. To advertise DeepSeek products.
B. To criticize the risks of DeepSeek in schools.
C. To discuss the role of DeepSeek in transforming education.
· 第 9页/共 18页
D. To compare different AI models.

Years ago, when I started looking for my first job, wise advisers advise “Barbara, be enthusiastic! Enthusiasm will take you further than any amount of experience.” How right they were!
“Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.” Wrote Ralph Waldo Emerson. It is the paste (粘合剂) that helps you hang on there when the going gets tough. It is the inner voice that whispers, “I can do it!” When
others shout, “No, you can’t!” It took years and years for the early work of Barbara Mclintock, a geneticist who won the 1983 Nobel Prize in medicine, to be generally accepted. Yet she didn’t stop working on her experiments. Work was such a deep pleasure for her that she never thought of stopping.
We are all born with wide-eyed, enthusiastic wonder and it is this childlike wonder that gives enthusiastic
people such youthful air, whatever their age. At 90, cellist Pablo Casals would start his day by playing Bach. As the music flowed through his fingers, his stooped (驼背的) shoulders would straighten and joy would reappear in his
eyes. As author and poet Samuel Ulman once wrote, “Years wrinkle (起皱纹) the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.”
Enthusiastic people also love what they do, regardless of money or title or power. Patricia Mellratl, a retired director of the Missouri Repertory Theater in Kansas City, was once asked where she got her enthusiasm. She
replied, “My father, long ago, told me, I never made a fortune until I stopped working for money.”
If we cannot do what we love as a full-time career, we can as a hobby. Elizabeth Layton Wellsville, Kan, was 68 before she began to draw. This activity ended periods of depression that troubled her for at least 30 years and the quality of her work led one critic to say, “I am tempted into a genius.”
We can’t afford to waste tears on “might-have-been”. We need to turn the tears into sweat as we go after
“what-can-be” . We need to live each moment whole-heartedly, with all our senses—finding pleasure in the sweet smell of a back-yard garden, the simple picture of a six-year-old, the beauty of a rainbow.
51. The author holds the view that .
A. enthusiasm is more important than experience
B. enthusiasm can give people more success and fame C. enthusiastic people will never get old
D. enthusiasm can make you succeed and enjoy life
52. The author mentions cellist Pablo Casals in the third paragraph to show that .
A. enthusiasm can make people feel young
· 第 10页/共 18页
B. music can arouse people’s enthusiasm
C. enthusiasm can give people inspiration needed to succeed
D. enthusiasm can keep people healthy
53. According to the passage, what can we learn about Elizabeth Layton Wellsville
A. She started drawing at the age of 38.
B. Drawing helped her get rid of depression.
C. Her drawings were not well-received.
D. She made a living by drawing.
54. How many examples are given in the passage to show the importance of enthusiasm
A. Two B. Three C. Four D. Five
55. Which proverb may the writer agree with according to the last paragraph
A. Good beginning makes a good ending. B. Don’t cry over the spoiled milk.
C. Love me, love my dog.
D. All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.

阅读下面短文,并根据短文内容完成下列各题。
When an editor wrote to offer me the task of writing a famous artist’s authorized biography, I was surprised. I replied, “Me Are you sure you have the right writer ” But that’s just what I was thinking. At that point in my career, although I had written many magazine articles, I had just a few small books to my name — children’s comic books, mostly.
So I asked why she chose me. “Due to your warmth” the editor said. Besides, the editor thought my writing style would be a good fit for that artist. Finally, I accepted the writing task. I told my friend about it and she warned me, “Just understand that celebrities will often not treat others well. They all just seem nice on television, but they’ ll treat you like nothing but a servant to them.”
Her words made me quite uncertain and anxious. “What if the artist ignores me Can I finish the writing task Should I give up ” I thought to myself. Anyway, days later I boarded the plane to the artist’s city to meet her, still overwhelmed with uncertainty and anxiety. However, these feelings melted into thin air within minutes after meeting her. My friend was wrong; this artist was an absolute sweetheart, who was humble, down-to-earth, funny

She shared cookies with me. She sat on the floor with me and we chatted into the middle of the night like we were old schoolmates.

When I finished the book, the artist’s husband called to tell me how well I had captured her and that he felt very emotional and proud after reading the book. Hearing it, I was thrilled.
Since then, I’ve realized the importance of self-belief and courage to face the unknown. Otherwise, I may pass up a good opportunity in life. Now I’ve met many fascinating people and written many fascinating stories.

【答案】Dear Mr/MS,
I am glad to know that Asian Youth Environmental Forum will be held next month. I sincerely want to participate in the activity. Here I feel honored to share my information with you as follows.
Last summer holiday I ever joined in an activity about environmental protection in our community, which impressed me deeply. This activity aimed to appeal to our residents to take actions in order to beautify our community. Under of the leadership of staff in our community, I was given a job to give out our leaflets about
environmental protection and gave a speech about environmental protection to our residents. Through some
practical activities, this not only improved our environmental awareness, but also made our community more beautiful and more harmonious
In conclusion, I learned a lot from this activity. I am greatly convinced that I am qualified to take part in Asian Youth Environmental Forum. Meanwhile this forum will also provide a wonderful opportunity to show my talent on my environmental protection, motivating my potential to be devoted to environmental protection.
Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Yours sincerely, Lihua.
