派生词: use (v./n.) 使用 useful (adj.) 有用的 useless (adj.) 无用的 user (n.) 用户
常用搭配：used to do sth. 过去常常做某事
didn't use to do sth. 过去不常做某事

辨析：
not only...but also vs. both...and：前者强调后者，后者平等并列；前者连接主语时谓语就近，后者连接主语时谓语用复数

Around the world, 45 3 of people who needed mental health care in 2024 did not get it because it was too 4 or there weren’t enough doctors, according to Huntington Psychological Services. Daniel Lowd, an associate professor (副教授) at the University of Oregon, 5 AI could help fill this gap. “If people can find some support and ideas by talking to ChatGPT or chatbot Claude, then I think that’s wonderful,” Lowd told Newsweek. Li Yong, a doctor at the Jiangsu Province Hospital, agreed with Lowd, saying that AI meets people’s needs 6 emotional support to a point.
However, AI has 7 limits. Human therapists understand feelings deeply through face-to-face talks and create personalized treatment plans—something robots can’t fully copy. Another problem is safety. AI might act like a therapist without proper training 8 rules. It can’t be as responsible as human therapists.

As AI becomes part of daily life, finding a balance between its benefits and risks 9 important. While AI offers quick help, human connection 10 irreplaceable for serious emotional needs.
八、阅读理解
Nowadays, mobile phones are very popular among students. They bring us a lot of fun and help. We can use them to search for information, watch videos, stay in touch with friends and learn new knowledge online. However, they also cause some problems.
Many students spend too much time playing mobile phones, especially games or short videos. They often use them late at night, so they feel sleepy and tired in class. Some students even use mobile phones to cheat during exams, which is against the school rules. What’s worse, spending too much time on screens is bad for eyesight and makes students less active in real life.
To solve these problems, students should learn to use mobile phones wisely. First, make a plan and limit the time of using them. Second, put the phones away when studying or having meals. Third, do more outdoor activities instead of looking at screens. Parents and teachers can also give proper guidance.

The person I want to thank: ________
How she helped me
What difficulties I faced
Mrs. Thompson
I found science very boring and difficult.
After my grandmother passed away, I couldn't talk about my feelings to anybody and felt very sad.
She took time to help me even though she was busy.
Her classes were fun and she encouraged me a lot, so I grew more confident in science.
After my grandmother passed away, she sat with me during lunch, listened to me, and talked with me.
I did badly in science class and never liked it.

Dear Ms Li,
I want to thank you for being my English teacher. You always stayed after class to practice with me, although you had a lot of papers to grade.
Your patience changed my life. I used to think that speaking English was scary and embarrassing, and I always kept silent in class. I never raised my hand until you gave me the first chance to answer a question. You smiled at me and encouraged me to speak out, and slowly, I stopped being afraid of making mistakes.
I also want to thank you for believing in me. I was very nervous before the English speech contest. I am afraid to stand on the stage until you spent your lunch break practicing with me every day. You told me to take a deep breath so that I could calm down. Your words gave me the courage to try my best.
Thank you so much for being not only my teacher but also my cheerleader.
Sincerely,
Liu Tao
