Since the start of robots, many people have been afraid that robots would take the place of humans in some fields. Now, some scientists say AI robots really are coming for some jobs. A March 2023 report said that AI could do a quarter of all the work that humans could do. In Europe and America, 300 million people may lose jobs because of AI.
But it’s not all bad news. Scientists have pointed out that there are still jobs that AI can’t do. People who get these kinds of jobs have less risk of losing work.
The first would be jobs that are really creative: you need to come up with new ideas and build something new. For example, in science, people whose job is coming up with new ideas may keep their jobs.
The second is jobs with important interpersonal relationships. Doctors and reporters are some of them. These are jobs where you need a very deep understanding of people. It will be a long time before AI has the ability to build relationships with human beings.
The third is jobs that really need lots of ability to solve problems, like welders (焊工). These are the kinds of jobs where you’re dealing with a new situation all the time. They are probably the hardest of anything to be taken place of.
In short, finding a job that needs adapting (适应) to the changing situations is a good way to avoid losing jobs.
13．Who may lose the job easily according to the text
A．A driver. B．A doctor. C．A reporter. D．A scientist.

Have you ever felt you don’t have enough time to learn new things My friend Tony says I am excellent. Because I can do many things, such as playing the piano and speaking four languages. He once asked me for the skills to manage time. I decided to help him. I told him my secret: use fragmented (片断的) time to learn.
Fragmented time is the time that we usually waste. I valued these small pieces of time and used them to learn something new every day. For example, when I was waiting for the bus, I would read a short article. I would like to memorize a few French words when I took a break after class.
Tony was interested in my method (方法) and decided to have a try. When he was taking breaks, he would read some books about history.
After several months, he was surprised by how much he could learn in such a short time. He got better grades in history, and he also felt more confident after he did something meaningful with his time.
He realized he didn’t need to have lots of time to learn new things. He could just use his fragmented time to learn anything he wanted. I was glad to help him, and I hope everyone can learn to use fragmented time.

A．By asking a question. B．By telling a story.
C．By giving an example. D．By comparing two facts.

Dear friends,
I’m Xiaofei on Douyin. Welcome to cook with me. Today I want to show how to make my favourite salad. My dear mum passed down this recipe (食谱). It is called Ambrosia Salad, and it’s also my family’s favourite.
First, choose your favourite fruit. Use fruit in season. Make sure it is fresh. Besides, use fruit of different colours and try to make your fruit salad look as good as it tastes. For example, mixing apples, green pears, purple grapes and oranges together will make the salad look very colourful. I think strawberries are a great addition! I especially like this in spring!
Then, put some salad dressing (调料) and mix the fruit and salad dressing together. If you want to add a special taste to your salad, you can also put in a quarter cup of peanuts (花生) which are cut into pieces. Make the fruit salad just before you are going to eat it. Some of the fruit will quickly turn brown when you leave it in the air for some time.
Don’t wait anymore, and try to do it yourself. If you like this recipe, please give me 5 stars.

Being Authoritative (权威的) Parents
Phrases like “tiger mom” and “helicopter parent” have made their way into everyday language.
Many of us find ourselves drawn to the idea that with just a bit more parental hard work and effort, we might turn out children with bright futures. But is there anything wrong with a kind of “overparenting style”
Parental involvement has a long history of being studied. Many of the studies, carried out by Diana Baumrind, a famous psychologist at the University of California, Berkeley, have found that a good parent is the one who is involved and reacts to her child in a positive way, who sets high expectations but gives her child independence. These “authoritative parents” appear to hit the sweet spot of parental involvement and generally raise children who do better academically, psychologically and socially than children whose parents are not strict and less involved, or controlling and more involved. Why is this parenting style so successful
Authoritative parents actually help improve motivation in their children. Carol Dweck, a social psychologist at Stanford University, has done research that shows why authoritative parents raise more motivated children. In a typical experiment, Dr. Dweck takes young children into a room and asks them to solve a simple puzzle. Most do so with little difficulty. But then Dr. Dweck tells some, but not all, of the kids how clever they are. As it turns out, the children who are not told they’re smart are more motivated to solve increasingly difficult puzzles. They also show higher levels of confidence and show greater progress in puzzle-solving.
As the experiment suggests, praising children’s talents and abilities seems to shake their confidence. Dealing with more difficult puzzles carries the risk of losing one’s status as “smart”. Dr. Dweck’s work strongly supports that of Dr. Baumrind, who also found that reasonably supporting a child’s independence and limiting interference (干涉) causes better academic (学术的) and emotional results.
The central task of growing up is to develop a sense of self that is independent and confident. If you treat your young child who is just learning to walk as if she can’t walk, you reduce her confidence. Allowing children to make mistakes is one of the greatest challenges of parenting. It is easier when they are young. The potential mistakes carry greater risks, and part of being a parent is reducing risk for our children.
58．According to the passage, a “tiger mom” ______.
A．helps her children realize their dreams
B．pays close attention to her children’s experiences
C．places reasonable expectations on her children
D．speaks her children’s everyday language
59．The example of the children doing the puzzles suggests that ______.
A．a good game plays a big role in training young minds
B．bright children usually show less confidence in difficult games
C．puzzle-solving can give children the motivation they need
D．overpraising makes children less motivated and confident
60．The last paragraph tells us that ______.
A．children should not be given much freedom
B．parents should not increase the risk of challenging
C．children should correct mistakes with the help of their parents
D．parents should allow their children to learn from mistakes

Since the start of robots, many people have been afraid that robots would take the place of humans in some fields. Now, some scientists say AI robots really are coming for some jobs. A March 2023 report said that AI could do a quarter of all the work that humans could do. In Europe and America, 300 million people may lose jobs because of AI.
But it’s not all bad news. Scientists have pointed out that there are still jobs that AI can’t do. People who get these kinds of jobs have less risk of losing work.
The first would be jobs that are really creative: you need to come up with new ideas and build something new. For example, in science, people whose job is coming up with new ideas may keep their jobs.
The second is jobs with important interpersonal relationships. Doctors and reporters are some of them. These are jobs where you need a very deep understanding of people. It will be a long time before AI has the ability to build relationships with human beings.
The third is jobs that really need lots of ability to solve problems, like welders (焊工). These are the kinds of jobs where you’re dealing with a new situation all the time. They are probably the hardest of anything to be taken place of.
In short, finding a job that needs adapting (适应) to the changing situations is a good way to avoid losing jobs.
13．Who may lose the job easily according to the text
A．A driver. B．A doctor. C．A reporter. D．A scientist.
14．What does the underlined word “They” refer to
A．Jobs with important interpersonal relationships.
B．Jobs that are really creative and enjoyable.
C．Jobs that really need lots of ability to solve problems.
D．Jobs that you can do over and over again.
15．What’s the best title of the text
A．Reasons that AI will develop quickly.
B．Jobs that need ability to solve problems.
C．Jobs that AI won’t take the place of.
D．Ways that we can use to avoid losing jobs.

Have you ever felt you don’t have enough time to learn new things My friend Tony says I am excellent. Because I can do many things, such as playing the piano and speaking four languages. He once asked me for the skills to manage time. I decided to help him. I told him my secret: use fragmented (片断的) time to learn.
Fragmented time is the time that we usually waste. I valued these small pieces of time and used them to learn something new every day. For example, when I was waiting for the bus, I would read a short article. I would like to memorize a few French words when I took a break after class.
Tony was interested in my method (方法) and decided to have a try. When he was taking breaks, he would read some books about history.
After several months, he was surprised by how much he could learn in such a short time. He got better grades in history, and he also felt more confident after he did something meaningful with his time.
He realized he didn’t need to have lots of time to learn new things. He could just use his fragmented time to learn anything he wanted. I was glad to help him, and I hope everyone can learn to use fragmented time.

There are many introverts in the world. Introverts are people who are more interested in their own thoughts and feelings than in spending time with other people. Many people think that it is hard for introverts to find jobs. However, most people, including introverts, can find suitable jobs according to their personalities.

Writer

Writers can write short stories, poems, plays and blogs. The opportunities for a writing career are endless.
Artist
Most introverts are also quite creative and have an artistic mind. They can work as an artist like a designer, architect, poster maker, painter and much more. A designer doesn’t necessarily need to have good painting skills. These days, imagination is enough. Online tools can help create designs, layouts, pictures and so on.
Programmer (程序员)
Being a programmer is also a suitable choice for introverts. This career needs good mathematical knowledge and critical thinking ability.

Dear friends,
I’m Xiaofei on Douyin. Welcome to cook with me. Today I want to show how to make my favourite salad. My dear mum passed down this recipe (食谱). It is called Ambrosia Salad, and it’s also my family’s favourite.
First, choose your favourite fruit. Use fruit in season. Make sure it is fresh. Besides, use fruit of different colours and try to make your fruit salad look as good as it tastes. For example, mixing apples, green pears, purple grapes and oranges together will make the salad look very colourful. I think strawberries are a great addition! I especially like this in spring!
Then, put some salad dressing (调料) and mix the fruit and salad dressing together. If you want to add a special taste to your salad, you can also put in a quarter cup of peanuts (花生) which are cut into pieces. Make the fruit salad just before you are going to eat it. Some of the fruit will quickly turn brown when you leave it in the air for some time.
Don’t wait anymore, and try to do it yourself. If you like this recipe, please give me 5 stars.

Being Authoritative (权威的) Parents
Phrases like “tiger mom” and “helicopter parent” have made their way into everyday language.
Many of us find ourselves drawn to the idea that with just a bit more parental hard work and effort, we might turn out children with bright futures. But is there anything wrong with a kind of “overparenting style”
Parental involvement has a long history of being studied. Many of the studies, carried out by Diana Baumrind, a famous psychologist at the University of California, Berkeley, have found that a good parent is the one who is involved and reacts to her child in a positive way, who sets high expectations but gives her child independence. These “authoritative parents” appear to hit the sweet spot of parental involvement and generally raise children who do better academically, psychologically and socially than children whose parents are not strict and less involved, or controlling and more involved. Why is this parenting style so successful
Authoritative parents actually help improve motivation in their children. Carol Dweck, a social psychologist at Stanford University, has done research that shows why authoritative parents raise more motivated children. In a typical experiment, Dr. Dweck takes young children into a room and asks them to solve a simple puzzle. Most do so with little difficulty. But then Dr. Dweck tells some, but not all, of the kids how clever they are. As it turns out, the children who are not told they’re smart are more motivated to solve increasingly difficult puzzles. They also show higher levels of confidence and show greater progress in puzzle-solving.
As the experiment suggests, praising children’s talents and abilities seems to shake their confidence. Dealing with more difficult puzzles carries the risk of losing one’s status as “smart”. Dr. Dweck’s work strongly supports that of Dr. Baumrind, who also found that reasonably supporting a child’s independence and limiting interference (干涉) causes better academic (学术的) and emotional results.
The central task of growing up is to develop a sense of self that is independent and confident. If you treat your young child who is just learning to walk as if she can’t walk, you reduce her confidence. Allowing children to make mistakes is one of the greatest challenges of parenting. It is easier when they are young. The potential mistakes carry greater risks, and part of being a parent is reducing risk for our children.
58．According to the passage, a “tiger mom” ______.
A．helps her children realize their dreams
B．pays close attention to her children’s experiences
C．places reasonable expectations on her children
D．speaks her children’s everyday language
59．The example of the children doing the puzzles suggests that ______.
A．a good game plays a big role in training young minds
B．bright children usually show less confidence in difficult games
C．puzzle-solving can give children the motivation they need
D．overpraising makes children less motivated and confident
60．The last paragraph tells us that ______.
A．children should not be given much freedom
B．parents should not increase the risk of challenging
C．children should correct mistakes with the help of their parents
D．parents should allow their children to learn from mistakes
