二、阅读理解
As the new term begins, let’s take a look at some interesting school publications (刊物).
Columbus is a magazine, whose name shows the place where our school lies. It helps students develop creative writing skills and is published twice yearly. Many of its excellent contributors (撰稿人) have also been honored as Scholastic Writing Awards winners.
Diversion is our language publication. Published once a year, it impresses readers with student works presented in Chinese, French, and Spanish. Working with advisors who teach these languages, student editors (编辑) help in presenting their classmates’ works, such as poems, short stories and art. Language teachers often use Diversion in their classrooms as well.
The Bruner is a yearbook. It serves the whole school and documents various aspects of our campus life. Editorial positions are named in May, giving student editors the chance to attend a two-day summer meeting at NYU. This meeting allows these editors to develop their ability to work on the yearbook before the start of the school year. Work on the yearbook begins shortly thereafter, as students work to create an impressive K-12 publication under the guidance of teachers.
The Trinity Times is the upper school newspaper. Students write, edit, photograph, and produce it as an after-school activity. Its contents include Arts and Innovation, Campus Life, NY Culture, Science, Opinion and Editorial, and Sports.
21．How often is Columbus published
A．Once a year. B．Once a month. C．Twice a year. D．Twice a month.
22．What is the main purpose of the two-day summer meeting at NYU
A．To answer readers’ questions. B．To train the student editors.
C．To praise excellent students. D．To develop a close friendship.
23．Which of the following is completely run by students
A．Columbus. B．Diversion. C．The Bruner. D．The Trinity Times.
I was born in Mexico City, and raised in Monterrey. I started learning how to cook by watching my mother and my grandmothers. My passion (酷爱) for cooking started at the age of 14 in Monterrey. Then, at age 17, I was contracted to work in New Orleans and cooked for three years. After that, I moved to Houston in 1990, where I fell in love and then had my first two beautiful children. We moved to Richmond in 1995 due to the unemployment of work in Houston.
Living in Richmond, I saw many opportunities come up. I was one of the first ones in Richmond to open a food trailer (活动房屋) business on Jefferson Davis Highway in 2000. We were at this location for about two years, and then we decided to open a restaurant nearby on the same road towards the market. Our business was going very well until my husband died, which forced us to close our restaurant.
After sadly closing the business, I worked at Tio Pablo as the head cook. I was there for about 3 — 4 years, and then headed to Rancho T. I later started working a second job with Commercial Taphouse. After being with Taphouse from 2018, I worked until it closed in 2022. I then saw the opportunity to open my business again. I said to myself, “It’s time to reopen my business back up after so long.”
So now you can find me cooking seven days a week inside my own food truck, El Taconazo, parked at 3227 Broad Rock Blvd. I do my work with passion. I give my 100% to ensure that my customers are happy and come back and visit us. My business may be small, but what makes it big is my happy customers returning.

After a long teaching day, I saw someone searching for a lost key between the seats on a crowded train. Strangely, my first thought was to ask ChatGPT. This surprised me and made me wonder: What did I think of AI Could it really help
Since ChatGPT appeared, teachers have different views. At first, I found it very useful. It offered me lesson ideas and saved me time. Students used it to understand difficult topics and get writing tips.
But I noticed problems. One student couldn’t remember facts ChatGPT gave him. Another used it to make his writing sound smarter, but lost his own style. Using AI for work meant students missed chances to improve their own ideas by revising. I told them: Use AI to help improve your writing, not to do it for you.
I also started using pen and paper more for lesson planning. It was slower, but my ideas felt more real and truly mine. This reminded me that the process of thinking is often more important than just the final result. And as a result, I’d managed to think more clearly.
In a world increasingly led by speed, I learned the best ideas often need time and focus. I’m not against AI, but I need to adjust (调节) its role in my life. My goal is to keep what’s important in teaching: curiosity, critical thinking, and solving problems without always taking shortcuts. I hope my students will, too.
28．What was the author’s first thought upon seeing someone looking for a key on the train
A．Turning to ChatGPT for help. B．Joining in the search for it.
C．Turning a blind eye to it. D．Reporting it to the police.
29．Why does the author mention his students in paragraph 3
A．To tell them they are smart. B．To tell how AI helps them.
C．To show the problems AI brings. D．To prove his teaching job successful.
30．What did the author think of planning his lessons by using pen and paper more
A．It wasted too much of his time. B．It was good for his thinking.
C．It allowed him to get answers quickly. D．It led to losing good teaching methods.
31．What is the author’s attitude towards using AI
A．Carefree. B．Hopeless. C．Unclear. D．Careful.
Many parents have experienced moments when their child’s behavior makes them feel annoyed and helpless. However, new research suggests that a different solution works better.
A recent study from King’s College London found that responding (回应) to a child’s behavior with warmth and praise can not only improve their behavior but also change how their brain works. The research shows that parenting programs, which focus on positive (积极的) behavior, can lead to real changes in brain activity in children with behavioral problems.
Researchers studied 78 boys with behavioral problems, aged 5 to 10. These boys, along with a control group of 35 other children, completed a reward (奖励) -learning task while having a brain scan. At the beginning, the boys showed less brain activity in the insula, a part of the brain responsible for expecting rewards, compared to other children.
The families of these boys with behavioral problems then attended a 10-12-week parenting program aimed at encouraging warm parenting. After completing the program, the boys were tested again.
The results were striking. Most of the boys showed more brain activity in the insula and other areas responsible for decision-making and learning. They were called “improvers”. The study also found that the parenting program changed how the boys with improved behavior learned from their experiences. They were able to make better decisions and became slower to change their expectations after a good or bad experience. They also became more practical and more aware of the difference between rewards and punishments.
This research highlights the strong influence of positive parenting on children’s behavior and brain development, showing that warmth and patience can create long-term changes in both behavior and the brain.
32．What are the families of the boys with behavioral problems asked to do in the study
A．Perform warm parenting. B．Go for a medical check-up.
C．Give rewards to researchers. D．Clean up the lab every day.
33．What does the underlined word “striking” in paragraph 5 mean
A．Endless. B．Different. C．Noticeable. D．Alarming.
34．Which is a change that happened to the “improvers”
A．They learned to work hard at school. B．They left a bad impression on the scientists.
C．They managed to keep their promise. D．They could make well-considered choices.
35．What can be inferred about positive parenting according to the research
A．It offers a hopeful message to doctors. B．It is a challenging task for every family.
C．It requires teachers to act as a role model. D．It produces a lasting influence on children.
Why Change Is Good for You
We all know that change is hard because people like to do the same things every day. 36 . Here are four reasons:
37 .
Change lets you try exciting things. When you think about your life, the best memories come from new experiences. Trips, new friends, or trying something different teach you a lot.
Change pushes you out of your comfort zone.
Staying in your “comfort zone” (doing what you know) is easy. But change makes you try new ways. 38 .
Change makes you stronger.
Change helps you become more flexible. At first, new things may feel strange, but soon you will feel OK. 39 . This makes you handle difficult situations better.
Change brings more fun.
40 . You get more chances to enjoy life. You also meet new people. Life becomes more interesting!
Even if change is difficult at first, the results are worth it. You grow and become a better person.
A．But change can also be good
B．Change happens, good or bad
C．Change helps you try new things
D．Later, you will feel more confident
E．New experiences are waiting for you
F．When you accept change, you say “yes” to more fun
G．You learn more when you step out of your usual habits

67．阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
David always took a window seat on the school bus. The wind felt cool on his face as he thought about that day’s soccer game. His teammates said he played well. One even said that he would become a famous player one day. That was David’s dream — to play for his country and make his mother proud.
He was deep in thought when Guillermo, David’s friend and fan at school, sat next to him. Guillermo often watched his hero David play soccer. He admired David because David was popular, good at soccer, and had nice shoes. Guillermo felt shy about his own old shoes. They were dirty and had holes. Each time he sat next to David, he tried to hide his shoes under the seat and David didn’t notice it.
Another day on the bus, David happily told Guillermo that he had saved enough money for new shoes and planned to buy them as soon as he got off the bus. At this moment, the bus suddenly hit something on the road. One of Guillermo’s shoes slipped out (滑出) from under the seat. Everyone could see how old and broken it was. Guillermo was so embarrassed (尴尬的) that he covered his face with his hands. David felt sorry for him. They didn’t talk for the rest of the ride. But when they got off, David asked Guillermo to go to the shoe store together.
注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Though Guillermo felt surprised at David’s invitation, he followed David to the shoe store.

【原文】M: Good evening, everyone. It’s Green Life again. In today’s program, I’ll give you some tips on how to help the environment.
First, ask your parents to leave their car at home. I know some of you like coming to school in your parents’ car. It’s time to make a change. Ask your parents to walk or cycle instead if they’re going somewhere close. Riding a bike helps not only the earth, but also our health. Riding a bike at 6 miles per hour, you can burn 240 or more calories an hour.
Do you like buying bottled water Well, I used to do that. But now I no longer drink bottled water. It’s a waste of money. Also it harms the environment. Prepare a bottle that you can use again and again and drink from it.
Where do your parents usually buy fruits and vegetables Fruits and vegetables are often shipped hundreds of miles from other states before they reach your supermarket. Pollution is caused in this way. So why not buy them from a local farmer

67．One possible version:
Though Guillermo felt surprised at David’s invitation, he followed David to the shoe store. There, the shopkeeper brought out the orange soccer shoes David dreamed to buy. But David pointed to another pair and said, “A smaller size, please. They’re for my friend.” Guillermo’s face turned red. He tried to speak, but David stopped him. “You always say I’m your hero. Today, let me be one.” The shopkeeper helped Guillermo try on the new shoes. They fit perfectly.
As David went to pay for Guillermo’s shoes, the shopkeeper refused and instead showed him his favourite shoes. “These are for you,” he said. “A true hero deserves a reward.” The two boys were both surprised and filled with gratitude at the shopkeeper’s words. Touched deeply, David realized that his mother would be prouder of this day’s act of kindness than any soccer goal. David had not only gained a new pair of shoes but also the satisfaction of making a real difference.
