On Halloween night, while most kids were busy collecting candies from door to door, a group of children in
Woodhaven, Michigan, did something unusual. They decided to share their sweet treats with a hospitalized boy named
Jacob, whose family had unexpectedly canceled their traditional candy giveaway.
Jacob, a 10-year-old who loves dressing up as a superhero every Halloween, had to stay in bed. His mother,
Amy Schmitt, a nurse, explained that they had planned to hand out candies with Jacob, but his condition suddenly
worsened on Tuesday. “We didn’t want to disappoint the kids, so I left a note saying we couldn’t give out candy this
year, ” Amy said, holding back tears.
However, the neighborhood kids noticed the absence of the usual cheerful “Trick or Treat!” from the Schmitts’
house. When 8-year-old Mia Sayen pressed the doorbell and saw no response, she told her dad, “Something feels off.
Mrs. Schmitt always has the best candy!” Curious, Mia checked the doorbell camera footage (录像) and saw Amy’s
note. She realized her worry was true.
Mia decided to do something for Jacob. After collecting candies from her first round of trick-or-treating, she
begged her dad, “Can we go back and give my candy to Jacob?” Her father agreed, and soon, other kids joined in.
By the end of the night, the Schmitts’ doorstep was covered with colorful candies — chocolates, gummies, and
lollipops — left by kids who refused to take any for themselves.
Amy was amazed when she saw the pile. “I couldn’t believe it. These kids didn’t even know Jacob well, but
they cared so much,” she said. “Their parents must have taught them kindness.”
The story quickly spread on social media, with many praising the community’s spirit. “It’s not just about candies

— it’s about humanity,” one neighbor commented. For Jacob, who peeked (快速看) at the candies from his hospital
bed, the act was the best Halloween gift ever.
4. Why was Jacob unable to enjoy Halloween as usual?
A. His family hadn’t planned it.
B. He had to care for his ill mother.
C. A sickness landed him in hospital.
D. The children didn’t visit his house.
5. How did Mia discover Jacob’s situation?
A. She inferred it from a sign.
B. Jacob’s mother phoned her.
C. Neighbors described it to her.
D She came across an online post.
6. Which words can best describe Mia?
A. Polite and determined.
B. Far-sighted and gentle.
C. Quick-eyed and caring.
D. Helpful and responsible.
7. What lesson does the author want to tell through the text?
A. Festivals improve relationships.
B. Kids prefer holidays to daily life.
C. Community events bring children joy.
D. Goodness can light up others’ moments.

Many people now use devices to track their sleep. Annie, observing her sleep each morning with a smartwatch
as countless others do, uses the data to see how well she rests and feels during the day. While sleep tracking is a fast-
growing industry, with products like rings, headbands, and watches all promising better rest, experts warn we must
understand their limitations.
The best way to measure sleep is called polysomnography. In a sleep lab many sensors record brain waves,
eye movements, breathing, heart rate, and blood oxygen. This shows sleep stages, awakening, and the speed of falling
asleep. Wearables do not measure brain waves. Instead, they estimate (评估) sleep from movement, heart rate,
temperature, and oxygen levels. Because of this, their sleep/wake and sleep-stage results are not always correct. What
your arms do may not match what your brain is doing.
第6页/共12页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司
Another challenge is defining “good sleep.” Adults are advised to sleep 7-9 hours, but “sleep quality” is more
complex (复杂的). It includes how continuous sleep is and how much time you spend in each stage. Also, how you
feel can conflict with the data. Some people report poor sleep, yet lab tests look normal. There is even a term,
orthosomnia, for becoming too focused on perfect scores, which can make sleep worse.
Still, trackers can help you learn what affects your rest. One person found evening pilates helped. Another saw
that alcohol raised her sleeping heart rate by about 10%. Continuous, at-home data lets you see patterns over weeks,
not just one lab night. Experts suggest using trackers to support healthy habits: regular sleep times, less caffeine late
in the day, limited alcohol, daily exercise, and a cool, quiet bedroom. Some also watch heart rate or heart rate
variability to notice early signs of illness and rest more.
Finally, consumer trackers are not medical tools. Algorithms (算法) may miss problems in certain groups, and
sleep changes with age. But if trackers start helpful conversations and lead to better habits, they can be a good
thing.
8. What does the example of Annie suggest?
A. Many people experience sleep difficulties.
B. Tracking sleep is now a common practice.
C. Sleep trackers can help people sleep better.
D. Wearables are a source of needless anxiety.
9. How does the author mainly develop paragraph 2?
A. By listing numbers.
B. By describing a process.
C. By giving examples.
D. By making a comparison.
10 What does the underlined phrase “conflict with” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Differ from.
B. Result in.
C. depend on.
D. Go beyond.
11. What is the purpose of the text?
A. To prove the effectiveness of sleep trackers.
B. To highlight the limitations of sleep trackers.
C. To recommend the wise use of sleep trackers.
D. To guide the choice of suitable sleep trackers.
D
Recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI) have led to significant breakthroughs in translation technologies.
AI translation is useful in some situations. For example, helping teachers communicate with parents who speak a
different language, or when travelling. Translation technology may even help protect endangered languages from
disappearing by supporting online collections of literature. With AI-powered technology in these digital libraries,
第7页/共12页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司
more people can appreciate these works.
But while technology can translate messages, it misses an important part of human communication — the
cultural nuances ( 细微差别) behind the words. So, while AI translation can bridge language gaps and make
communication easier, it’s important to be clear about the benefits and challenges it presents. Relying only on
technology to translate between languages will finally lead to misunderstandings and a less rich human experience.
The new technology also comes with limitations. In 2019, workers at an immigration (移民) center in the United
States used AI translation to deal with an asylum (庇护) case. The voice tool could not understand the applicant’s
accent, and the person was kept there for six months without being able to explain clearly. In 2021, a police officer
used Google Translate to ask a Spanish-speaking woman if he could search her car. The app chose a wrong word,
which caused confusion.
Learning additional languages also stands out as one of the best ways to improve ourselves, with benefits for
brain health, social skills, cultural understanding, and career opportunities. A study in 2022 found that people who
speak more than one language have quicker minds and may delay brain aging. It also showed that learning several
languages helps people respect and understand each other better.
While AI-powered translation technology has its uses, a great deal can be lost if we rely only on it to communicate.
The nuances of languages, and what they say about different cultures, are difficult to communicate via translation
tools. And the benefits of being bilingual (双语的) or multilingual — both personally and for the wider society —
risk being lost if we don’t support second language learning.
12. What does paragraph 1 stress about AI translation?
A. Its literary value.
B. Its advanced tools.
C. Its future development.
D. Its practical applications.
13. What can be inferred about AI translation from the examples in paragraph 3?
A. It takes little time to be reliable in daily life.
B. It can make serious errors in important cases.
C. It works better with written texts than speech.
D. It will replace human translators sooner or later.
14. Why is the 2022 study mentioned in the text?
A. To support a point.
B. To stress a problem.
C. To introduce a topic.
D. To question a belief.
15. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. AI Translation: The Technology Develops Fast
B. Relying on Technology: The Costs Are Unseen

How to Stay Safe During a Typhoon
When a typhoon strikes, the world outside can change from calm to dangerous in just a few minutes. The sky
darkens, the wind grows wild, and heavy rain begins to fall with great force. ____16____ But staying calm and
taking the right actions can make a big difference.
Stay indoors and keep away from windows
During a typhoon, the safest place is always indoors. Once the storm begins, do not go outside, not even for a
short look. Close all windows and doors tightly, and stay away from glass, which may break when hit by strong wind
or flying objects. ____17____ Waiting indoors may feel long and boring, but it protects you from real danger
outside.
Be mindful of electricity and stay alert (警觉的)
____18____ If water begins to enter your home, turn off the main power in no time. Avoid touching wet plugs,
wires, or electrical devices. Listen carefully to what’s happening around you. Sometimes a strange sound or sudden
silence can mean trouble is near. During a typhoon, attention saves more than strength does.
Follow official warnings and remain patient
A typhoon can change direction or strength at any time. Follow the advice of local governments, even if the
weather seems calmer for a moment. If the sky suddenly becomes calm, don’t be fooled — it is the “eye” of the
typhoon that passes by. ____19____ So you should stay patient and wait for official news.
Stay calm and support each other
No one can stop the storm, but you can control how you face it. Take deep breaths, speak gently, and try to calm
those around you. Help children, the elderly, or neighbors who might be alone. Courage grows when people care for
each other. ____20____
A. The worst of the storm may be over.
B. It is normal to feel fear at such a moment.
C. Kindness stands even in the strongest wind.
D. The wind can return even harder than before.
E. You need to learn to fix the electricity by yourself.
F. If you live high up, this rule is especially important.

surprise, and their dad’s face ____34____ as he saw them. The boys, who had spent the whole trip wide-eyed and

47. 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。
It was a quiet Sunday afternoon. I was watering the flowers in my yard when I noticed a man standing near the
Smiths’ house across the street. He walked slowly along the fence and kept looking at the windows. Sometimes he
stopped and stared for a long time. Since the Smiths were not home, his strange behavior made me feel uneasy.
After watching him for several minutes, I decided to walk over. “Excuse me,” I said carefully, “can I help
you?”
The man turned around quickly. He looked tired, and his clothes seemed old. “I used to live in this house,” he
said in a low voice. “I sold it last year after my business failed. I didn’t come to cause trouble. I just wanted to look
at it again.”
His voice sounded honest, but I still felt unsure. He kept looking down at the ground, and his hands were
shaking a little. I didn’t want anything dangerous to happen, so I stepped back and quietly called the police.
A few minutes later, a police car arrived. The officers asked him several questions. Even though he repeated the
same story, the officers still looked suspicious (怀疑的). One of them said, “There were break-ins in this area recently.
We need to take you to the station and ask more questions.” The man looked helpless but did not resist (反抗). The
police took him away.
The street became quiet. I stood there, wondering if I had made the right choice.
About an hour later, Mr. and Mrs. Smith returned from work. As soon as I saw them, I went over and explained
everything — the strange man, what he said, and how the police took him away. “We bought this house last year,”
Mrs. Smith said. “The previous owner was a middle-aged man. He looked very upset when we moved in. He didn’t
even want to walk around the house for the last time.”

should check.”
