and when you do not know a thing, to recognize that you do not know it—that is wisdom. ” 并且, 正如伟大的教
育家孔子所言: “知之为知之, 不知为不知, 是知也。”
在数字时代，科技正以前所未有的速度发展，我们周围的世界也在迅速变化。在这样的背景下，终
身学习变得比以往任何时候都更加重要。让我们来了解一下……
In the digital age, technology is developing at an unprecedented speed, and the world around us is changing
rapidly. In this context, lifelong learning has become more important than ever before. Lifelong learning refers to
the process of acquiring knowledge and skills throughout one’s life, rather than just during formal education
periods such as childhood and adolescence.
One of the main reasons why lifelong learning is essential in the digital age is the rapid update of
knowledge and technology. New technologies such as artificial intelligence, big data, and the Internet of things are
constantly emerging, and the knowledge and skills that were useful yesterday may become obsolete today. For
example, a programmer who learned a certain programming language 10 years ago may find that it is no longer
used in the industry, and he needs to learn new programming languages to keep up with the times. If people stop
learning, they will easily fall behind and lose their competitive advantage in the job market.
Another reason is that lifelong learning can help people adapt to changes in society. The digital age has
brought about great changes in people’s lifestyle and work methods. More and more jobs require people to have
digital literacy and the ability to use new technologies. For instance, many traditional jobs such as cashiers and
bank tellers are being replaced by self-service machines and online services. People who are willing to learn new
skills can find new job opportunities, while those who are unwilling to learn may face unemployment.
In addition, lifelong learning can enrich people’s lives and promote personal growth. Learning new
knowledge and skills can broaden people’s horizons, stimulate their creativity, and help them discover new
interests. For example, an old man who learns to use a smartphone can keep in touch with his children and
grandchildren more easily, and he can also learn about the world through the Internet. A housewife who learns to
bake can not only make delicious food for her family but also start a small baking business if she wants to.
Some people may argue that they are too old or too busy to learn. However, with the development of online
education, lifelong learning has become more convenient. People can learn at any time and anywhere through
online courses, video lectures, and e-books. In fact, age and time are not obstacles to lifelong learning; the real
obstacle is the lack of willingness to learn.
In conclusion, lifelong learning is crucial for individuals to adapt to the digital age, maintain their
competitive edge, and achieve personal growth. It is a necessary way for people to face the challenges and
opportunities brought by the rapid development of technology.
全文翻译
在数字时代，科技正以前所未有的速度发展，我们周围的世界也在迅速变化。在这样的背景下，终
身学习变得比以往任何时候都更加重要。终身学习指的是一个人在一生中不断获取知识和技能的过程，
而不仅仅局限于童年和青少年等正规教育阶段。
终身学习在数字时代至关重要的主要原因之一是知识和技术的快速更新。人工智能、大数据和物联
网等新技术不断涌现，昨天还适用的知识和技能今天可能就过时了。例如，一个10 年前学习了某种编程
语言的程序员可能会发现，该语言在行业中已不再使用，他需要学习新的编程语言以跟上时代的步伐。
如果人们停止学习，就很容易落后，从而在就业市场上失去竞争优势。
另一个原因是终身学习有助于人们适应社会的变化。数字时代给人们的生活方式和工作方式带来了
巨大的改变。越来越多的工作要求人们具备数字素养和使用新技术的能力。例如，许多传统工作，如收
银员和银行柜员，正逐渐被自助服务机和在线服务所取代。愿意学习新技能的人能够找到新的就业机会
而那些不愿意学习的人则可能面临失业。
此外，终身学习可以丰富人们的生活，促进个人成长。学习新知识和技能可以拓宽人们的视野，激
发他们的创造力，帮助他们发现新的兴趣。例如，一位学会使用智能手机的老人可以更方便地与子孙保
持联系，还能通过互联网了解世界。一位学会烘焙的家庭主妇不仅可以为家人制作美味的食物，如果愿
意的话，还可以开办一家小型烘焙店。
有些人可能会说他们年纪太大或太忙，没时间学习。然而，随着在线教育的发展，终身学习变得更
加便捷。人们可以通过在线课程、视频讲座和电子书随时随地学习。事实上，年龄和时间并不是终身学
习的障碍；真正的障碍是缺乏学习的意愿。
总之，终身学习对于个人适应数字时代、保持竞争优势和实现个人成长至关重要。它是人们应对科
技快速发展带来的挑战和机遇的必要途径。
知识拓展
①在线教育发展：近年来，在线教育市场规模持续增长，像Coursera、edX 等平台提供了丰富多样的课程，
涵盖各个领域，满足了不同人群的学习需求。据统计，全球在线教育用户数量不断攀升，为终身学习提
供了有力支持。
②技术更新速度：人工智能、大数据等技术发展日新月异。例如，人工智能领域的算法不断迭代，新的
模型不断涌现，如GPT 系列模型，其强大的语言处理能力引发了全球关注。这也要求人们不断学习以跟
上技术的步伐。
③就业市场变化：随着数字化转型，一些新兴职业如数据分析师、人工智能工程师等需求大增，而传统
职业面临转型或淘汰。据相关报告显示，未来几年，与数字技术相关的职业岗位将持续增加，这凸显了
终身学习对于适应就业市场变化的重要性。
④老年学习群体：越来越多的老年人加入到终身学习的行列中。他们通过学习智能手机使用、摄影、绘
画等技能，丰富了自己的晚年生活，也增强了与社会的联系。一些社区和机构也专门为老年人开设了相
关课程。

(2025 年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试(新课标I 卷)英语真题B)In my ninth - grade writing class last
year, I met a cowboy who saved his town, a strict father who demanded his son earn straight A's, and a modern -
day Juliet who died of heartbreak after her parents rejected the love of her young life. More than once, I found
myself wondering just how my students, who'd created these people, knew their subjects so well.
But things were different for their first essay, which was about the question: “Why is writing important?”
Most of the essays filled less than one page, and few contained a sentence that could be interpreted as a thesis(论
点) statement. I was shocked. Then I realized that the problem was the question itself. They could have written
pages on the necessity of computers, but writing, in and of itself, simply didn't strike them as important. This
would have to change.
As a new unit started, I asked everyone to write a persuasive piece on a health - related topic of their choice.
This time they found the exercise much more interesting. For the next two assignments, a personal - narrative unit
followed by a creative - writing workshop, I only required that the piece meet the specifications of its genre(体裁)
and that it contain a thesis. The results were staggering. The students took on diverse topics and turned in stories,
10 to 20 pages each, with characters that broadened my view and touched my heart.
I walked into class believing that writing is important as a means of communication. However, my students
demonstrated something more important to me. When the final bell rang in June, I walked away with a yearbook
full of messages about writing's most powerful significance — the ability to connect people, to put us in another's
skin, to teach us what it means to be human.
24. Who are the people mentioned at the beginning of paragraph 1?
A. Ninth graders.
B. Students' parents. C. Modern writers.
D. Fictional characters.
25. Why did the students perform poorly in writing their first essay?
A. They were not given enough time.
B. They had a very limited vocabulary.
C. They misunderstood the question.
D. They had little interest in the topic.
26. What does the underlined word “staggering” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Mixed.
B. Amazing
C. Similar.
D. Disturbing.
27. What does the author's experience show?
A. Teaching is learning. B. Still waters run deep. C. Knowledge is power. D. Practice makes perfect.

Passage 1
【人工智能】
(2026 年广东广州市普通高中毕业班综合测试（一）
Survey data shows that most freshmen regularly use generative AI, often treating it as “an intellectual
partner”, Professor John Hampson reported at a faculty ( 全体教师) meeting in Elite Technology University
(ETU). Students most commonly use it to understand difficult concepts, search, generate study materials, and edit
writing. Interestingly, the lowest reported use is for generating text.
Meanwhile, students are using faculty office hours and the speaking and writing centers less. In last year’s
computer science courses, scores on problem sets increased, yet exam scores declined. “This is concerning,” noted
Hampson. “If they were using AI as a study pal, they weren’t absorbing as much as they might think.”
Students want clearer AI policies, and Hampson advised faculty to carefully consider and share what level
of use they permit, the reasoning behind it, how to cite use of AI, and examples of what’s permissible. He also
encouraged department-wide discussions to best prepare students for a workplace where they will need to know
how to write or code with its assistance. “I also believe that students need to learn to write and code unaided, to
develop critical thinking skills, their agency as citizens, and also meaning — making the ideas that help them
understand their own lives,” he added.
Some professors expressed concerns about how AI use is impacting students’ mental health and learning.
Professor George Wilson noted that students are often highly competitive, and “it’s important to create rules so
that competition leads to healthy behaviors that make them better educated people.” While some suggested more
one-on-one time with students, others noted that budget restrictions would make that difficult.
Professor Poly Burnett observed that lecture attendance is also down. She urged faculty to make lectures
something students genuinely want to attend. She also noted that many teachers are making small changes, in
hopes of continuing teaching as they’ve previously taught. “We actually have to see this less as a problem and
more as an opportunity,” Burnett suggested. “How can ETU lead in rethinking how we teach, how we learn... and
have our students be benefiting and being at the leading edge of that?”
1．What does the author imply about the survey findings by using “interestingly” in paragraph 1?
A．They indicate a promising trend.
B．They contradict a common assumption.
C．They capture the faculty’s interest.
D．They require further investigation.
2．Which of the following changes is mentioned in paragraph 2?
A．Students are interacting more with others.
B．AI use has led to better learning outcomes.
C．Exam scores rose while homework scores fell.
D．Students are using off-line academic services less.
3．Why does Hampson emphasize students writing and coding without AI?
A．To clarify acceptable uses of AI in coursework.
B．To prepare students for future workplace demands.
C．To ensure students develop essential human capacities.
D．To improve students’ long-term academic performance.
4．What is Burnett’s suggestion to the faculty?
A．Make lectures more entertaining.
B．Let students take the leading role.
C．Take the chance to reform education.
D．Adjust teaching slightly to AI challenges.
Passage 2
【信息技术】
(2026 年广东湛江市普通高考测试(二)
I’m Kim. Despite all its weaknesses, Java has served me well. But I’ve never had strong feelings about Java
itself. I liked some things about it, and I hated others. For many years my perspective was simple: I didn’t have to
love Java, or whatever programming language, to finish my tasks well. That all changed a few months ago when I
wrote my first Kotlin class.
It was a pop-up adapter in just 86 lines, 17 of which were package and import statements, and I couldn’t get
over how brief and readable it was. I could barely comprehend how little I wrote to get something to work. It took
me a few passes, but all of a sudden, I sensed the difference. This wasn’t just about language features or what the
FAQ (frequently asked questions) said the language was capable of. This was about how I felt.
It was genuinely fun. I’d read code over and over and couldn’t believe how much I was accomplishing in so
few lines. I couldn’t believe the clarity of the writing. Over the next few days, I wrote more and more Kotlin. I
wrote my first extension. Then I rewrote an existing helper class and I wanted to write more. With just a few hours
of effort, I cut 94 lines without breaking a sweat. I was amazed, excited, and having a ton of fun. I was also
slightly amazed at this fresh experience brought on by a programming language.
Over the next couple of weeks, that pleasant feeling just grew and grew. Whenever I’d have to work with
Java, it was painful. I’d find myself rushing through it and making stupid mistakes because I had more important
Kotlin files to attend to. But when I opened the Kotlin files, I felt at home, relaxed. The code was beautiful and
expressive. It was brief but powerful. I kept finding new ways to write more clearly, more directly. And I was
happy.
5．What did Kim initially think of Java?
A．It was rather boring.
B．It was very complex.
C．It was a bit unstable.
D．It was just workable.
6．What struck Kim most about Kotlin?
A．Its loose structure.
B．Its high efficiency.
C．Its official introduction.
D．Its numerous functions.
7．Why did Kim rewrite the helper class?
A．To satisfy his interest.
B．To check and correct it.
C．To test new coding skills.
D．To fix its technical errors.
8．How did Kotlin impact Kim?
A．It broadened his career vision.
B．It improved his logical thinking.
C．It transformed his coding style.
D．It helped express his true character.

Passage 3
(2025-2026 学年山西太原市小店区山西大学附属中学校高三下学期4 月阶段检测)
The hot topics of 2025 have naturally become part of their concerns as senior three students approach the
college entrance examination and look toward their future. Among the most concerned ones are the integration of
AI into education and the change of workplace landscape.
For most seniors, the rapid development of AI represented by models like DeepSeek has already left traces
in their study lives.
1
Many “double first-class” ( 双一流) universities have employed localized
versions of such AI tools, which will soon become part of campus life for college students. This technological
change is not about replacing human learning but about improving the educational experience.
2
It can
help sort out learning materials, analyze weak points, and provide personalized learning suggestions, allowing
students to focus more on critical thinking and creative exploration.
3
Young people today pay more attention to work-life balance, and emerging forms of
employment such as “digital nomads” have sparked widespread discussions. Students should take action to adapt
instead of passively accepting changes. The key to responding to these changes lies in cultivating core
competencies that AI cannot replace.
4
These abilities will enable them to adapt to the evolving job
market and even leverage AI to create new opportunities.
As the 2026 college entrance examination draws near, every effort made today is laying the foundation for
a better tomorrow. Whether it is understanding technological trends or clarifying career directions, staying
informed about hot topics helps students better tackle upcoming challenges.
5
The youth should
embrace changes with an open mind, meet challenges with a positive attitude, and write their own wonderful
stories in the new era.
A．They may think about the role of AI in education.
B．AI has become an essential tool in modern education.
C．Moreover, the widespread use of AI is reshaping the job market.
D．It is important for seniors to balance study and rest during this period.
E．The move towards digital education is reshaping how students acquire knowledge.
F．After all, being prepared is the most effective strategy for facing an uncertain future.
G．Among them are critical thinking, emotional intelligence, and the ability to innovate.
Passage 4
【学习方法策略】
(2026 届陕西渭南市杜桥中学高三年级下学期第一次质量检测英语试题)
Having a goal is one thing; achieving it is another.
6
The key is to break down the journey and
use effective strategies to stay on track. Here are several proven strategies and frameworks for defining and
reaching your long-term goals.
Make your goals specific and challenging. Start by clearly defining what you want to achieve. A vague (模
糊的) goal like “I want to be successful” isn’t very helpful. Instead, make it specific: for example, “I want to
become a certified project manager within the next 5 years.” Research shows that specific and challenging goals
boost performance far more than easy or vague goals.
7
Break down big goals into milestones. A long-term goal can feel depressing if you look at it as one giant
leap. The strategy is to slice it into smaller, manageable pieces.
8
It’s like running a marathon — you
focus on reaching the next mile marker rather than obsessing (困扰) about the finish line from the start.
9
A goal set and forgotten is just a dream. Studies suggest that simply writing down your goals —
and sharing updates with a friend — can dramatically increase your chances of success, because it turns your
intentions into a concrete commitment.
Be flexible and adjust as needed: Long-term planning does not mean rigidly sticking to a script. Over the
course of years, industries change, and you will grow and learn. It’s important to review and adjust your long-term
goals periodically.
10
Stay committed to the purpose of your goal, but be flexible in the path you take to
get there.
A．Track progress and stay devoted.
B．Set a realistic goal appropriate for yourself.
C．If one road is closed, you find an alternative path.
D．Long-term goals often involve many steps and years of work.
E．So, make sure your goal stretches you beyond your comfort zone.
F．You may be surprised by what you can achieve along the journey.
G．This approach creates checkpoint victories that keep you motivated.

(2026 届陕西西安高新一中沣东中学等校下学期4 月模拟预测)
When I started my advanced chemistry class, I was paired with Leo, a quiet guy who rarely spoke. I was
ambitious and obsessed with getting the top 1 . Leo, however, seemed only interested in the pure 2
of the experiments.
Our first major project was a complex synthesis (合成). I carefully planned every 3 step, trying
to predict the outcome. Leo simply watched the liquids, adjusting the heat or adding drops with 4 that
felt almost unconscious. I kept telling him we needed to 5 the instructions perfectly.
“You’re chasing the grade,” he finally said. “I’m chasing the 6 . The chemicals don’t care about
the textbook; they only 7 the truth of the reaction.”
One day, an unexpected side reaction turned our beaker (烧杯) a bright, strange purple. I wanted to 8
and start over, fearing the 9 failure. Leo, instead of panicking, leaned closer, his eyes bright with
curiosity. He quickly 10 the composition and realized the impurity had created a rare, beautiful
compound.
He taught me that in science, and in life, the best discoveries often come from the 11 . He showed
me that true learning meant escaping the controlled environment of the lab and 12 the chaos.
We didn’t 13 the project goal, but our unexpected purple compound earned us the highest mark. I
realized Leo hadn’t just been my partner; he had been my 14 . He showed me that 15 isn’t
about avoiding mistakes, but about learning from the beautiful accidents they create.

Passage 8
(2025-2026 学年安徽六安市上学期高三期末学业水平检测)
It was the final semester of senior high, and the atmosphere in the classroom was heavy with pressure.
Emma felt like she was drowning in an ocean of endless tests and fierce competition. Ranked just outside the top
ten in her class, she stuck to her dream of getting into her ideal university to study medicine. But with only four
months left before the Gaokao, every day seemed like a battle against time and anxiety.
Every morning without fail, Emma dragged herself out of bed at 5:30 a.m. The dormitory was still silent as
she sat at her desk, reciting English words under the weak light of her desk lamp long before the sun had risen.
Buried in textbooks all day, she stayed in the classroom until the last minute before lights-outs and sacrificed
every break in her effort to improve. However, despite her hard work, her math scores refused to go up. The red
marks on her paper filled her with deep self- doubt and frustration.
One afternoon, after a particularly disappointing math exam where she forgot a key formula(公式), Emma
could no longer hold back her tears. She ran out of the noisy classroom and hid under the old maple tree in the
schoolyard. Sitting alone on the cool ground, tears blurred her eyes as she looked at the fallen leaves. “Maybe I'm
just not smart enough for this,” she whispered, her voice trembling with exhaustion and despair.
Just then, her best friend Lily found her, holding two cans of iced tea. “You’ve come so far already,” Lily
said gently, sitting down beside her. “Remember how you used to panic during quizzes last year? Now you face
them calmly.” Emma shook her head. “But I keep making silly mistakes.” Lily smiled and patted her shoulder.
“Growth isn’t a straight line. Look at this tree. It looks quiet now, but it's storing energy for spring. Your mistakes
are just the proof that you are trying to grow.”
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。
Then Lily handed Emma a mistake notebook.
