Orangutans (猩猩)live in rainforests. They want to live in peace, but people are cutting down the trees for
wood and farming. This is a big problem because the trees are the orangutan’s homes. They are very difficult to
find and study because they are shy animals. They are also our cousins!
There isn’t enough bamboo for pandas to eat because man has cut down nearly half the bamboo forests.
Research has shown that there are only about 600 pandas left in the wild in the world. Most of them live in China.

January 20, 2025, a Chinese tech-company named DeepSeek made a new AI called DeepSeek-R1. This
smart program can solve math problems, write code, and answer questions like top models such as OpenAI’s
GPT-40, but it costs much less to build. The team spent only $5.58 million (1/70 of OpenAI’s cost) and used 2,048
computer chips for two months. This shows that good ideas can beat big money.
DeepSeek-R1 learns by trying many times and getting better, like how students practice maths. Other AIs
need lots of prepared examples, but RI improves by itself. For example, in a global math test, it got 79.8% right,
slightly higher than OpenAI’s model. A simple version of R1 can even run on low cost computers, helping schools
and small companies.
DeepSeek-R1 is free to use and change. On its first day online, over 19,000 programmers worldwide started
projects to study it. A German scientist said experiments with R1 cost $10 instead of $300 with other AIs. Even
Meta (a famous U.S. tech company) top scientist said, “This kind of free AI could change the world.”
U.S. tech-companies are worried. Meta plans to spend $65 billion more on AI research. Experts say China
is catching up fast. A report in Nature magazine called R1 a “big step forward”, proving that smart ideas beat
expensive tools.
As a DeepSeek engineer said, “We want AI to be a friend, not something only rich people can use.” With
R1, China shows the world that great things come from new ideas and hard work, not just money.
9．What is the main purpose of the article?
A．To compare Chinese and American AI technologies.
B．To introduce a low-cost AI model from China.
C．To explain how computer chips work.
D．To encourage students to become programmers.
10．How much did it cost to train DeepSeek-R1?
A．$5.58 million. B．$65 billion. C．$10. D．$300.
11．What does the writer think is the most important for success?A．Having enough money. B．Creativity and hard work.
C．Using the latest computer chips. D．Copying other countries’ ideas.
12．Why does the engineer say, “We want AI to be a friend, not something only rich people can use”?
A．To criticize expensive AI models. B．To explain why R1 is free.
C．To compare RI with Meta’s AI. D．To encourage students to study math.

On a cold winter night, two beagles, Pepper and Cooper, walked along a snowy road in Bethel, Ohio. They
had no home and needed a safe, warm place to rest. Pepper, the female dog, was pregnant, and Cooper stayed
close to protect her.

collars with name tags. Gus stopped his truck and gently approached them. The dogs didn’t try to run away. He
read their names and tried calling the number on their tags, but the snow made it hard to use his phone.
Gus decided to take the dogs into his truck to keep them warm. He called the number again, but the owner
said he didn’t want the dogs anymore. Realizing they were abandoned, Gus called his wife, Katie. She told him to
bring them home because they couldn’t leave the dogs outside in the storm.

days after Christmas, the shelter told her Pepper and Cooper had been adopted as a pair by a loving family. In the
