Christmas time with kids is filled with warm traditions: Listening to Christmas music while
decorating the tree, going to look at Christmas lights with hot chocolate in hand, and taking the kids
tovisit SantaClaus.Well,delete that last one.At least formyfamily.
Parents think about how fun it will be at first to take their kids to see Santa, or tell them gifts
are on their way from Santa, but this comes with a series of annoying questions about Mr. Claus like
how he makes it to all the houses in one night, as well as the broken trust after revealing the truth. I
didn’t want that.
You may think that our Christmases were rigid, stuffy, and without any warmth or magic. I
don’t think so. Part of that is due to what I taught my kids about Christmas. Instead of telling them
Santa is real, I told them it most likely has its origins in St. Nicholas, a man who was kind and
generous to children in need. Netflix’s 2021 movie “A Boy Called Christmas” is a useful tool for
helping kids connect Christmas myths and traditions with reality while keeping the spirit of
generosityalive.
The monthofDecember is filled with movieandgame nights, plays and concerts.These family
traditions have added flavor tomy kids’entire childhood. Hopefully,theyknow nowthat it’s thetime
with family, doingspecial things together, that creates the magic and that my love for them goes well
beyond just one day — and that magic, wonder and awe can happen any time with family, especially
ifweremain generous and grateful.
My kids are older now, and they’re glad they didn’t believe the myth of Santa. It was one fewer
bad memory for them, onefewer blowto theirinnocent childhood.

After eight years of planning, a cost of more than 500m kronor (£39m) and an early morning
blessing, Kiruna Kyrka began a slow 5km journey on Tuesday to make way for the expansion of
Europe’s biggest underground mine. The 672-tonne wooden Swedish Lutheran church, dating from
1912,is to beslowly rolled to its new home overtwo days, at apace of half-a-kilometre an hour.The
move is part of a huge multi-decade operation to relocate the whole Arctic town as the state-owned
LKAB iron mineweakens the ground,threatening to swallow thetown.
Designed by Gustaf Wickman, the church is one of Sweden’s most-loved older buildings. More
than 10, 000 people, including the Swedish king, Carl XV6 Gustaf, are expected to line the streets to
seethe moveofthered wooden building.
The expansion has attracted criticism, including from the Sámi community, who fear that the
division of the land would make reindeer herding hard, threatening the local biodiversity. Karin K
Niia, a reindeer owner, warned the move was “a big show” to distract from the destruction mining
causes to the town and its native culture. She accused the company of “land-grabbing” the grassland
territory needed to support Sámi culture. Fredriksson, who hosted a podcast on local Kiruna news,
was happy, at least, that the church had been saved, and hadn’t ended up “as woodchips like the rest
ofKiruna.”
LKAB said the move was necessary for the church to continue to exist and stressed it sought
“constructive solutions” when mining affected reindeer herding;the company’s chief executive, Jan
Moström, said the relocation work had cost more than half a billion kronor and that if the mine is to
remain,the city center mustmove.
The church is expected to reopen at its new location at the end of next year, but the city’s
relocation isnot scheduled to finish until2035.
28.Whatdowe knowabout the KirunaKyrka church?

Scientists at Finland’sAalto University have found that using artificial intelligence (AI) almost
removes and reverses (逆转)the Dunning-Kruger effect, a phenomenon that people who aren’t very
good at a given task are overconfident, while people with high ability tend to underestimate their
skills. Their research showed that when using common chatbots to solve problems, everyone
(regardless of their skill level) tended to put too much faith in the quality of the answers, with the
mostexperiencedAIusers doingso themost.
In the study, scientists gave 500 subjects logical reasoning tasks, with half allowed to use
ChatGPT. Both groups were later quizzed on both their AI literacy and how well they thought they
performed, and promised extrarewards ifthey assessed their own performance accurately.
The reasons behind the findings are varied. Because AI users were usually satisfied with their
answer after only one question or prompt (提示), accepting the answer without further checking or
confirmation, they can be said to have engaged in what Robin Welsch, anAalto University computer
scientist, calls “cognitive (认知) offloading” — exploring the question with reduced reflection, and
approaching it ina more“shallow” way.
Such less engagement in our own reasoning means we bypass (避开) the usual feedback
process of critical thinking, which reduces our ability to assess our performance accurately. Even
more revealing was the fact that we all overestimate our abilities when using AI, regardless of our
intelligence, with the gap between high-and low-skill users reducing. The study owed this to the fact
that large language models (LLMs) help everyone perform better to some degree. Meanwhile, the
Aalto team warned of several potential impacts asAIbecomes more widespread.
Firstly, metacognitive accuracy overall might suffer. Without reflecting on results, error
学科网（北京）股份有限公司 7checking or deeper reasoning, we risk weakening our ability to source information reliably, the
scientists said inthe study.What’s more, the flattening of the Dunning-Kruger Effect will mean we’ll
all continue to overestimate our abilities while usingAI, with the moreAI-literate among us doing so
even more — leading to an increased climate of miscalculated decision-making and a drop in their
skills.
32.What didAalto University researchers discover aboutAI chatbot use?
A.Low-ability users becameless confident.
B.It strengthened theDunning-KrugerEffect.
C.Users generally over-trusted thechatbot’s answers.
D.Only beginners often thought highly oftheirabilities.
33.Which aspect ofthe research is paragraph 2mainly about?
A.The purpose. B.The process. C.Thesubjects. D.The findings.
34.Whydothe users often overestimatetheir abilities?
A.LLMs’aidimproves users’task performance.
B.Users often skip theprocess ofcritical thinking.
C.AI toolscontribute tousers’metacognitiveaccuracy.
D.The gapbetween high-and low-skillAIusers is bridged.
35.What willbe probably talked about inthefollowing paragraph?
A.Regulations for narrowingAI users’skillgap.
B.Guidelines for sourcing information reliably.
C.Methods forpreventing users’cognitivedecline.
D.Tips for improvingthesubjects’performance.

Young Chinese travelers are discovering a clever way to save money on overseas trips.
36 . For example, one traveler took a high-speed train from Beijing to Datong and then caught
adirect flight to Bangkok.The total cost was much lower than a direct flight from Beijing.
37 This new travel style is possible thanks to newly opened international routes from
smaller city airports. This makes the overall journey surprisingly affordable. The airports in these
smaller cities offer another advantage: efficiency. With shorter walking distances and fewer crowds,
学科网（北京）股份有限公司 8they providea relaxed start to thetrip compared to theoften busymajor hubs.
But for these young people, it’s not just about saving money. 38 They prefer to spend
their budget on better food and experiences at their destination. An expert points out this reflects an
upgrade in cultural consumption, not simply cheapertravel.
How can these tickets be so cheap? 39 To encourage local tourism and economic
growth, local governments often provide support for these new flight routes. This reduces airline
costs, allowing them tooffer lowticket prices.
This trend is growing across China. More small and medium-sized cities are launching budget
international flights. 40
A.The mainreason involvesgovernment support and market operations.
B.Therefore, thequality oftheirtravel experience has significantly improved.
C.They combine ashort train rideto a nearby city with aflight from its airport.
D.Instead, itrepresents asmarter choice aimed at gaining greater value.
E.These flights are often 30-50%cheaper than those from big cities.
F.Consequently,thishas led to adecrease in international travel overall.
G.Asa result, young travelers now have moreattractiveand cheaper flight options.

The qipao, a key Chinese fashion symbol, has evolved through history, shaped by diverse
cultures. However, in its transformation 56 modern styles, the Shanghai-style qipao played a
crucial role. As 57 (describe) in The History of Chinese Qipao Culture: “Modern qipao (in the
narrow sense) are essentially Shanghai-style, as most associate ‘qipao’with 1930s — 40s Shanghai
designs.”
In the 1920s, Shanghai female students started a fashion revolution in qipao, marking 58
学科网（北京）股份有限公司 10break from traditional norms. The early Shanghai qipao was simple, loose, similar to Han men’s
robes, 59 was inspired by male clothingand acted as a “battle robe” for women. “It was a call
for sex 60 (equal), expressing hopes through appearance — a symbol of female independence,”
aprofessor said.
Later,theShanghai qipao set 61 (it) apart withits mixof traditional Chinese 62
(element) and Western designs. Influenced by European fashion, its slim cut moved from loose robes,
63 (highlight) women’s curves. The richness and variety of Shanghai qipao made Shanghai
“Oriental Paris” in the 1930s. The fashion quickly 64 (sweep) through the city and spread
nationwide. Today, designers draw inspiration from this style 65 (create) new pieces blending

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。
Jason had a reputation as the messiest kid at Greenwood High School. His room was like a
junkyard, with clothes tossed everywhere, empty chip bags on the floor, and half-finished sodas
scattered across his desk. His mom, Susan, had stopped nagging (唠叨) him to clean up, hoping he
学科网（北京）股份有限公司 11himselfwould eventually get thehint. But instead, themess justgot worse.
Greenwood High School was famous for its creative projects, so when the headmaster, Mr.
Thompson declared a new “Labor Education” project, noone was toosurprised. Theidea was simple:
teach students about hard work through real tasks. Jason wasn’t excited — he would rather play
video games all day —but theproject was amust; hehad nochoice.
Finally, the day of the project came. It was gray and overcast, matching Jason’s mood as he
dragged himself into the school’s lecture hall with his classmates, yawning and complaining. Mr.
Thompson stood on stage with a speaker. “Today, we’re going to learn the importance of labor!” he
exclaimed. Jason rolled his eyes when he was assigned to the gardening group with his best friend,
Mike. Their job was to clear out the school’s overgrown front lawn and plant new flowers. They
shared alookthat said it all —thiswas going to be along day.
As they started weeding, Jason quickly discovered how hard physical labor could be. The
weeds were stubborn, and the leaves seemed to multiply every time he raked (耙) them. His back
ached, his arms felt like jelly, and his hands blistered (起泡). While stretching, eager to sneak in a
break, he spotted Mr. Thompson standing afar with a big smile from across the yard, giving him a
bigthumbs-up.
After lunch, the group moved to build simple things like birdhouses for the garden in the
school’s maintenance house. Jason had two left hands at first — his hammering was a mess — but
he slowly got better. By the end of the session, he managed to make a crooked but decent- looking
birdhouse. Carrying his newly-made birdhouse around, Jason proudly showed it off to his
classmates.
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。
The lasttask ofthedaywas to plant newflowers.
As theday ended, Jason walked back to his room.
