Light rain continued to fall as I arrived at the mountain village. With a heavy bag on my back, I was excited to teach at a small school here, but a little 36 . What would these students be like
The school had only 18 students. Most were quiet, 37 they ran and laughed at break. One girl, Wen, always sat alone in the corner, seldom saying anything. On my first day in the classroom, I shared with them a 38 with the words “You are seen” on it and put it up on the wall. Some smiled shyly and some spoke quietly. “That’s why I’m here,” I said. However, Wen didn’t 39 . She was just drawing circles on the desk with her finger.
Days passed quickly. The lessons were 40 planned. The children were kind. But my effort seemed to make little difference. I was not sure if I was doing anything 41 .
One night, a heavy storm caused a power cut, leaving the classroom in darkness. As everyone was frozen, a soft light appeared. It was Wen who was holding a 42 in her hand. “We can still read.” she whispered. That was the first time I heard her voice.
The next day, she sat 43 . In the following days, she began to talk more. In my last class, she came up and gave me the lantern. “So you will always have some 44 ,” she smiled gently.

A
A famous Peking Opera group is on a world tour in London. Jack, a 14-year-old British boy, has become interested in Peking Opera and the Traditional Chinese Culture Club in his school. He has bought a ticket for A River All Red. Here is the ticket and the leaflet he got before the show.
A River All Red
About the plot
A River All Red is a story about a famous General Yue Fei (1103-1142) during the Southern Song Dynasty. When outside enemies attacked, Yue Fei led his army to fight for the country. During battles, Yue Fei always put himself in danger to protect his army. After many successful fights, he refused any prize or reward. He always said, “A general serves his country, not himself.”
However, Official Qin Hui secretly planned with the enemy to destroy Yue Fei. He tried to make the emperor believe that Yue Fei was too powerful and dangerous. Though Yue Fei did nothing wrong, the emperor killed him in the end. Luckily, other generals still followed Yue Fei’s will and continued Yue Fei’s fight. At last they saved the country.
About the actors
Some of China’s leading Peking Opera actors and actresses play the main roles of this opera. For example, Yu Kuizhi plays Yue Fei.
About the Peking Opera faces
Actors in this show wear different colors and patterns on their faces to show the roles’ characters. Red faces mean being brave and faithful. The black face shows someone who is rude and brave, or someone who is fair and selfless. They are always fighting for fairness and bravely punish the powerful who are against the laws (法律). A white face tells us a character is dishonest and good at using tricks to get what he wants. Blue or green faces are for brave soldiers, outlaws or fighters. A silver face shows a character is a god or spirit.

Take a pen and write the number 6174 on a piece of paper. It looks just like any other number, doesn’t it But what if I told you that it was a magic number
Do you think this is a joke Well, let’s see the magic with a quick experiment.
Start with any four-digit (数字) number—just make sure that at least two of the digits are different. You may use, for example, 2024.
Now rearrange (重新安排) the digits to make the smallest possible number: 0224. Then, arrange the digits to make the largest number: 4220. Let’s subtract the smaller number from the larger number: 4220-0224=3996.
Go back to the second step and repeat the process: 9963-3699=6264→6642-2466=4176→7641-1467=6174 Ta-dal. There you have it: 6174!
You can repeat this experiment with another number. What do you end up with Is it 6174
This number is known as Kaprekar’s constant. It is named after the Indian mathematician Dattatreya Ramchandra Kaprekar. He discovered the magic behind this number in 1949 after performing the above process.
Kaprekar had always enjoyed playing with numbers. After finishing college, he spent his life working as a primary school math teacher. The man was known for his sharp mind. Many schools and colleges invited him to solve difficult math problems. But when Kaprekar presented the magic of 6174 at an international mathematics meeting, other mathematicians didn’t roll out the red carpet. They thought it was a useless discovery and made fun of him. Yet to this day, no scientist can fully tell why this magic works.
Would you like to dive deeper Try different numbers and see how many steps you need to get to 6174.
49. How does the writer start the passage
A. By asking questions. B. By giving an example.
C. By telling a story. D. By using sayings.
50. If the number for the experiment is 2198, which of the following is the next step
A. 2198-2981 B. 9281-1928 C. 2198-1289 D. 9821-1289
51. What does the underlined phrase “roll out the red carpet” mean in the passage
A. Show little interest. B. Give a warm welcome.
C. Have a good laugh. D. Disagree with his belief.
52. What’s the purpose of this passage
A. To introduce a magic number 6174 and the story behind its discovery.
B. To show people that Kaprekar was a great mathematician.
C. To teach people how to do math experiments with four-digit numbers.
D. To invite readers to become math teachers like Kaprekar.

For her 85th birthday, I gave my mother Susan an iPad. She’d never used a computer. She had a trying relationship with her TV remote control and a painful experience with her mobile phone. However, this time she was dying to learn about the iPad. She believed that if she didn’t keep up with technology, she would find herself in a computerized kitchen, “unable to open a can of soup”.
Our first task was email. She quickly learned the basic rules but couldn’t understand why she has to email others when she could phone or visit in person.
Next, we dealt with Netflix, the widely-used video website. Mom is a movie lover and she was surprised by the number of crime movies that Netflix can offer. One Saturday, she called me because she was having trouble logging onto (登录) Netflix. I suggested it might require an update. “They probably have fewer people working as it’s a long weekend,” she told me.
Later, she taught herself to learn FaceTime and started her experiments with podcasts, and even started emailing her grandchildren.
As she became more familiar, she began wondering about all the icons (图标), so we set up a weekly lecture, which takes place on the phone, each of us with our iPads. One day, I tried for 45 minutes to help her find the search bar. “It looks like a magnifying glass (放大镜),” I kept saying. Finally, she asked: “You mean the frying pan ”
Unexpectedly, she made great progress. Now she becomes interested in E-books and even check them out in the middle of the night. She watches TV series and knows what’s popular. It’s great to see how much her confidence has grown. Yesterday, she FaceTimed me. “I’ve made a decision,” she said. “I’m going to learn how to operate every piece of technology in the apartment — including the TV remote.” However, I still can’t wait for the day when we can sit down in person and surf the Internet together.
53. Why did Susan decide to learn to use an iPad
A. To keep up with the times. B. To connect with her family.
C. To better control her kitchen. D. To keep in touch with her friends.
54. Which of the following shows the correct order of Susan’s experience
a. She began emailing her grandchildren.
b. She asked the author about the search bar.
c. She received an iPad as a birthday present.
d. She met difficulties in logging onto the video website.
e. She decided to learn about the technologies in the apartment.
A. c-d-a-b-e B. c-e-d-a-b C. e-c-d-a-b D. e-a-d-b-c
55. Which word best describes Susan
A. Honest. B. Independent. C. Curious. D. Humorous.
56. What is the author’s writing purpose

C. To show the importance of learning new technologies.
D. To share her mother’s interesting learning experiences.

Imagine you are in an autonomous vehicle (AV，自动驾驶车辆) and face this terrible choice: The car must either turn left and hit an 8-year-old girl, or turn right and hit many walkers. On top of this “moral dilemma (道德困境)”, if the car doesn’t turn, you could be in danger. What decision would you want the car to make
When AVs face dangerous situations, should they save people in the car first or walkers Should they put the greater good above one person’s safety These questions have been under discussion for years, but there is no perfect answer.
“A moral dilemma is a dilemma; it has no clear answer,” wrote Derek Leben, a professor at the Tepper School of Business, US, in his paper.
Iyad Radhwan, an MIT scientist studied these questions. He found out that people often think about their own safety first. “People buying these cars, they want cars that protect the passengers. But they want other people’s cars to protect walkers instead.”
AVs bring not only moral dilemmas but also problems with rules. If there is an accident, who should be responsible
In July, 2024, a self-driving taxi by Baidu hit a walker in Wuhan, Hubei, who ran a red light. Baidu worked with the police and took the walker to the hospital. In another accident in Seattle, US. in April, 2024, it was decided that the “driver” should be responsible because he was on his phone while in the full self-driving mode (模式).
The situations of different accidents caused by AVs are so complex (复杂的) that “now there are no very clear laws about it”, said Ji Xuehong, a researcher from North China University of technology.
57. How does the writer introduce the topic of moral dilemmas faced by AVs
A. By giving an example of a hard decision.
B. By explaining what moral dilemmas mean.
C. By describing how self-driving cars work.
D. By introducing the rules for self-driving cars.
58. What does Derek Leben think about the moral dilemma
A. It won’t happen in real life.
B. It is easy to make a choice.
C. There is no perfect answer.
D. Drivers should protect themselves.
59. What is Paragraph 6 mainly about
A. Real-life examples of AV accidents in China.
B. The best ways to deal with the moral dilemma.
C. Rules of driving AVs in big cities like Seattle.
D. Different situations of accidents caused by AVs.
60. What might be Ji Xuehong’s opinion in the last paragraph
A. AVs are hard to drive. B. We need better laws for AVs.
C. AVs can cause a lot of trouble. D. There will be no need for drivers soon.

I Find Myself Really Good
Our school did a survey among 3,500 students on the topic of "I Find Myself Really Good". Here are the results. One fourth of the students think they are willing to help others. 15% like to share ideas. Only 7% are good at keeping things tidy. And almost half of them believe they are positive and never give up easily.
As for me, I find myself really good at being positive and never giving up easily. Last term, I had a hard time with my math. I couldn’t understand some difficult problems no matter how hard I tried. But I didn’t give up. I kept asking my teacher for help and doing extra exercises. Day by day, my math improved a lot. Finally, I got a good grade in the math exam.
This positive attitude helps me a lot in life. When I face difficulties, I always tell myself to keep going. It makes me more confident and helps me achieve my goals.
