For its 2024 Global AI Student Survey the Digital Education Group gathered 3,839 responses from undergraduate, graduate, PhD students across 16 countries. The students represented many fields of study.
On average, surveyed students use 2.1 AI tools for their courses. ChatGPT remains the most common tool used, mentioned by 66% of respondents, followed by Grammarly and Microsoft Copilot (each 25%). Here are most common use cases:
Despite their wide use of AI tools, students were not confident about their AI knowledge, the survey found. Fifty-eight percent of students reported feeling that they do not have enough AI knowledge and skills, and 48% felt poorly prepared for AI-related work. Notably, 80% of surveyed students said their university’s adoption of AI tools does not fully meet their needs.
Students’ top AI needs included:
● Universities should provide training for both teachers and students on the effective use of AI tools (said by 73% of teachers and 72% of students);
●Universities should offer more courses on AI knowledge (72%);
●Universities should include students in choosing which AI tools to use (71%);
●Universities should increase the use of AI in teaching and learning (59%).
“With AI being used more widely, universities must now treat it as a basic part of education, not just a tool,” said Alessandro Di Lullo, head of the Digital Education Group and an AI expert at The University of Hong Kong. At the same time, he said, “universities need to consider how to effectively improve AI skills to equip both students and academics with the skills to succeed in an AI-driven world.”

I used to believe courtesy was a thing of the past. Very seldom have I met a courteous human being in this modern era of the so-called Generation X.
Recently, I had to change my thinking, when I came face to face with just such a human being. I had gone to a fashionable coffee place, with two of my grown-up daughters. The place was crowded with the usual loud crowd and we had to climb a steep flight of stairs in order to find an empty table. After enjoying coffee and snacks, we were walking down the steep stairs, where the narrow space made climbing down only possible in a single file, with hardly any space for another person to either climb up or come down.
Just as I was in the middle of the staircase, a gentleman entered the main entrance of the restaurant which was right in front of the staircase. I was sure I would be pushed roughly by this man who would want to go up in a hurry. I kept coming down as fast as I could, holding on to the banister (扶手), in spite of my advanced years. My daughters were already down, looking up at me worriedly, hoping I would reach them before the stranger started up the stairs, knowing I was a nervous sort.
Nearly reaching them, I noticed the man still standing near the door. I reached my daughters and passed the stranger at the entrance door which he kept holding open. I looked back thinking he was still at the door, deciding whether to go in or find another less crowded place. I saw him going up the stairs, two at a time. I told my daughters about it and all three of us felt bad that we did not even thank the courteous gentleman who was actually holding the door open for us ladies to pass through.
We admired his kindness for both, waiting for us to come down before going up himself and also holding the main entrance door open for us to go out. To date, I still remember this gentleman and pray to God to make more human beings like him.
4. Before she met the man in the restaurant, the author had thought ________.
A. she didn’t belong to the Generation X
B. there were few polite people in the modern society
C. having coffee in a fancy café was not her cup of tea
D. human beings were born courteous
5. In paragraph 2, the underlined phrase “in a single file” means that ________.
A. walking one after another in a line B. moving slowly to avoid slipping
C. walking carefully with a file in hand D. moving in pairs down the staircase
6. What can we infer from the passage
A. The author was a lady in her early thirties.
B. The author tended to feel nervous in some stressful situations.
C. The man probably knew one of the author’s daughters.
D. The man was unsure whether to go in the café or not.
7. Which of the following might be the best title for this passage
A. Strange encounter at a fancy coffee shop B. A narrow Escape on the Stairs
C. A Man of Mystery and Manners D. An Unexpected Lesson in courtesy
C
Researchers from Northwestern University and the Chicago Botanic Garden will study the carbon capture (碳捕获) effects of soil additives on agricultural fields.
For the world to meet the global average temperature goals set forth in the 2015 Paris Agreement, we need to actively decrease carbon emissions (排放). Earth and planetary sciences professor Andy Jacobson suggests Earth science can help it and that one possible way is to capture atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) and lock it away for a few thousand years.
The chemical weathering of rocks is a natural phenomenon that transforms atmospheric CO2 into a stable mineral form. When CO2 dissolves in water, it creates a substance that can break down rocks. This transformation releases elements from certain rocks and changes CO2 into a stable form. Over time, these elements combine to form minerals that are the building blocks of many natural structures and rocks. This transformation helps to lock carbon in a solid form, which plays an important part in stabilizing Earth’s climate over the long term.
“Over much shorter human timescales, this stable form of CO2 acts as a sink for atmospheric CO2,” says Jacobson. Can we speed up the weathering process and actively remove carbon from the atmosphere at rates fast enough to help reduce the impact of modern climate change
Enhanced rock weathering was proposed as a strategy of decreasing carbon emissions decades ago but only recently gained interest. An article in a 2020 magazine estimated that enhanced weathering could remove up to 2 billion tons of CO2 annually from the atmosphere by 2050.
Jacobson is leading a team of researchers to investigate this negative emissions technology. In a series of experimental systems that simulate natural conditions at the garden, researchers will test the effects from adding different types of rock to soils used to grow various crops. The soil additives will include a volcanic rock that chemically weathers faster than other rocks and minerals, potentially speeding up CO2 capture and storage.
8 What does Jacobson stress about Earth science in paragraph 2
A. Its scientific origin as a principle. B. Its present limitations in carbon capture.
C. Its potential role in achieving climate goals. D. Its logical accuracy in temperature prediction.
9. What is mainly discussed in paragraph 3 concerning rocks
A. Their natural structures. B. The reasons for their formation.
C. The process of their weathering. D. Their stable chemical composition.
10. What is the main function of the question in paragraph 4
A. To introduce the following solution. B. To doubt the content of a magazine.
C To summarize the previous paragraph. D. To show the fast rate of climate change.
11. What is the best title for the text
A. Is Farming the Key to Carbon Capture
B. Can Humans Stabilize the Climate of Earth
C. What Is the Chemical Weathering of rocks
D. How Do Carbon Emissions Speed up Global Warming
D
Satellites are increasingly a global-communications lifeline, allowing people in remote areas to make phone calls and get online. Services such as SpaceX’s Starlink, by far the largest of the networks of telecommunications satellites in low Earth orbit, have been increasing rapidly during the past decade.
This success comes at a cost. As things stand, most satellites are single-use products with lifetime of 15 years or less. Moreover, space debris (垃圾), which may cause damage to spacecraft, is a growing problem. The rapid increase in satellites raises key questions about whether humanity could or should litter the environment around Earth.
Astronomers are raising their voice in this debate. Researchers pointing their telescopes at stars are increasingly finding their observations ruined by light streaks (光条纹) from satellites flying overhead. In the past five years, some astronomers and satellite operators have cooperated to preserve “dark and quiet skies”. This could involve changing a satellite’s design to make it less bright or organizing activities so that astronomers can point their telescopes to regions where satellites aren’t flying at any given moment.
Beyond conflicts with astronomers’ observations, discussions about the future of satellites need to include voices of Indigenous (本土的) peoples, many of whom have important connection to the night sky but have long been excluded from decision-making and economic power in outer space. International discussions need to recognize the rights of Indigenous peoples in space as well as on Earth, says astronomer Hilding Neilson.
The skies are a global resource, shared by all humanity, and it is crucial that decisions about its use consider the needs of all affected parties. Satellite connectivity remains essential for many people, including Indigenous communities in remote and under-served areas. This is why the conversation about astronomy and satellites cannot be reduced to“satellites are bad and we must save the night skies for astronomy”.
12. What is the public’s major concern about the growing number of satellites
A. They may pose a threat to the environment.
B. They could increase global competition.
C. They are too difficult to maintain.
D. Their operational lifespan is too short.
13. Why did some astronomers and satellite operators choose to cooperate
A. To provide clear views for telescopes.
B. To develop new advanced telescopes.
C. To identify safer orbits for satellite operation.
D. To boost the global satellite communication network.
14. What is Neilson’s suggestion concerning Indigenous peoples
A. Protect their traditional culture from disappearing.
B. Expand their understanding of space.
C. Involve them in space decisions.
D. Improve their access to satellite services.
15. What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A. Satellite development needs more support.
B. Satellite connectivity’s benefits remain to be seen.
C. There is an urgent need to explore space resources.
D. Satellites and astronomy must find ways to co-exist.
第二节（共5小题, 每小题2. 5分, 共12. 5分）
阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
When I was a kid, my siblings (兄弟姐妹) and I were not allowed to say “I’m bored.” ___16___ I always assumed my parents made this rule to spare themselves from hearing us complain, but now I wonder if it had deeper historical roots.
___17___ For a long time, it has been viewed as an unpleasant, even wrong feeling. In ancient times, if someone showed the signs of boredom, they were wrong of “acedia,” a feeling of being apart that was seen as rude to the world and its creator. The growth of factories and time-saving devices only strengthened our wish to use time well. ___18___ Many parents try to keep their children from getting bored, either to stop complaints or because they think boredom wastes a chance to get ahead.
None of these attitudes toward boredom strike me as healthy or beneficial. We need to move past our fear of boredom and start to see it as an unavoidable, necessary, and even advantageous experience. ___19___ It is a very unpleasant (and short) state that often pushes us to try new ideas. When we take away children’s boredom by giving them instant and shallow activities, we greatly lower their chances of learning new and challenging things well.
___20___ Instead, we should trust that children will find ways to amuse themselves — and maybe even learn to accept boredom as a gift, a chance to think, to create, to discover. As we learn to sit with boredom, we may find that it is not our enemy but our helper, something we need for a life of meaning and invention.
A. Boredom, at its best, brings creativity.
B. As a culture, we have a bad relationship with boredom.
C. Today, we continue to view boredom with strong dislike.
D. Schools should add more creative classes to prevent boredom.
E. We should not fill every minute of our kids’ days with activities.
F. If we were, we were instantly given a task, so we learned to avoid it.
G. Modern technology has made boredom a rare experience for children.

One day in a relay race, we were ____23____ until I fumbled the baton pass (接棒失误). We lost. I felt ____24____. My coach handed me the baton, saying it’s not just about speed but precision, ____25____, and knowing ____26____ when to give and take. “Sometimes, the most powerful move isn’t running faster, but ____27____ smarter,” he added.
I ____28____ my individual strength means nothing if I cannot run in line with others.
I ____29____ this to my marriage, adoption decision, and business. I now sometimes coach entrepreneurs. In many entrepreneurs, I’ve seen a ____30____ of my past self: individually oriented, viewing solo hard work as a badge (徽章) of honor. So I tell them passing the baton is a strategic skill, not ____31____.
I once ____32____ a founder struggling to increase sales. He passed growth strategy to my agency, a foreign company, while ____33____ the strengths and control of development by virtue of his team’s own capabilities. Within half a year, they saw a 120% increase in quarterly revenue.
I still keep that baton as a ____34____. My greatest successes come from knowing when my energy, and hands-on involvement are needed, and when to pass it on — a lesson I love ____35____.

47. 阅读下列材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之成为一篇完整的知文。
Lily was a high school student who loved complaining herself with others. She always cared about the latest clothes, expensive phones, and designer bags. Whenever someone showed off a new item, she would feel jealous (妒忌的) and want to buy something better. Her parents often told her, “True value isn’t in what you own,” but she never listened.
One day, Lily noticed a girl from another class, whose name was Mary. Mary’s family was wealthy, but she always wore simple clothes and carried an old schoolbag. Unlike Lily, Mary never joined in the students’ discussions about brands or prices. Instead, she spent her time helping classmates with math problems or volunteering in the school library. Her grades were always at the top of the class, and everyone respected (尊重) her.
Lily couldn’t understand why Mary didn’t care about material things. One afternoon, Lily saw Mary sitting alone under a tree, reading a book. She decided to talk to her. “Why don’t you buy nicer things ” Lily asked. “Your family has enough money.” Mary looked up with a smile.“I’d rather spend money on things that matter,” she said. “Like helping others or buying books.”
That night, Lily thought about Mary’s words. She realized that she had been looking for things that didn’t bring real happiness. The next day, she made a decision: she would stop comparing herself with others and start focusing on what truly mattered.

【答案】Dear Mr. Smith,
Thank you for proposing the two wonderful ideas for English Week. I would recommend the English Song Competition for the following reasons.
First, singing English songs is a fun way to improve pronunciation and vocabulary naturally. Many students enjoy music, so participation would be high. Second, this activity allows creative performances-solo, duets, or even group acts，making it more engaging than a traditional contest. Lastly, we can invite judges to give feedback on both language skills and stage presence, adding educational value.
I’m sure this event will be both fun and educational for everyone. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.
Yours,
Li Hua
【答案】
The following week, Lily began to learn from Mary. She stopped begging her parents for expensive items and instead used her pocket money to buy a few second-hand books, which she shared with classmates who couldn’t afford new ones. When she saw someone struggling with homework, she would sit down patiently and help, just like Mary did. During lunch breaks, instead of talking about brand-new sneakers or phones, she joined Mary in the library, organizing books and helping younger students find what they needed. At first, she felt a little shy, but seeing the smiles on others’ faces warmed her heart.
Months later, teachers and classmates all praised Lily. Her grades had jumped from average to top 10, and she organized a weekly study group that helped half the class improve. At the school’s volunteer day, she led a team to clean the community park, laughing as she picked up litter with classmates. “Lily’s heart is as bright as her smile now,” her math teacher said in class. Her parents, seeing her donate old clothes to charity, hugged her tightly. Lily finally understood: true value lies not in what you have, but in what you give.
