When I was a boy, I never looked at the stars much. During the summer evenings I preferred reading a book or watching television to being outside. As I got older I began to gaze up into the night sky more often, but we lived in a place with light poles that came on each night so I could only see a few dozen stars at the most. Still I enjoyed seeing their beauty.
One Summer night, however, I was picking up my daughter at a home in the country far off the beaten path. It was a clear sky that night and when I parked my car and got outside, what I saw took my breath away. The entire sky above my head was an ocean of light, a sea of stars. I couldn’t believe the beauty of it. I felt the warm summer breeze blow on my face as I looked up at this indescribable beauty and my whole spirit felt uplifted. I could feel the loving hand that created these billions of stars also touching my heart and my whole being was filled with peace, joy and happiness.
I also felt very small and very large at the same time. I felt tiny when I realized the immensity of the universe. Each of these stars was a sun and each one was millions upon millions of miles away. Yet, I could see the light from them all. But I also felt oneness with them. It was just up to me to live it.
I carry that memory of the night under a sea of stars in a special place in my soul. I feel blessed that I could see that beauty and realize that I too was a part of it. I only hope to live my own life with all the love I can, with all the wisdom I can, with all the joy I can and with all the light I can.

Are you smarter than a ten-year-old Shocking data reveals that a large number of adults in rich countries might not be. The OECD, a club of mostly wealthy nations, released a study last week showing about one-fifth of 16 to 65-year-olds perform no better in maths and reading tests than primary school leavers.
Moreover, adult literacy has declined in many places over the past decade. The OECD’s “Surrey of Adult Skills”, conducted once every ten years, had 160,000 adults from 31 countries and regions take short tests in numeracy (计算能力), literacy and problem-solving. These tests assess whether they can hold jobs, engage in daily life and succeed in the real world, from understanding aspirin packet warnings to calculating wallpaper needs. Finland tops the charts with the highest average scores in all three areas, while the Netherlands, Norway and Japan also fare well. England has climbed the rankings in the past ten years due to young adults’ better performance, but America’s results are worsening. Similarly, Chile, Italy, Poland and Portugal have many below-average scorers; nearly half of Chileans score poorly in maths and reading compared to just 8% of Japanese.
Overall, basic skills are deteriorating. In numeracy, for every country with a rising score, there is another that has seen its score fall. In literacy, more countries’ scores are dropping despite higher secondary school completion and more degrees. The decline is among the least skilled. Migration and ageing populations partly explain it, as non-native speakers struggle in language tests and skills peak around 30. But even accounting for these, many countries’ literacy scores are falling. Andreas Schleicher blames less practice at reading complex texts, perhaps due to TikTok, RedNote or YouTube.
This isn’t the only sign of stalled (停滞的) cognitive skill improvement. The “Flynn effect” saw IQ scores rising in the 20th century, but recently some countries have seen decline. High scorers in OECD tests earn 75% more than low scorers and report better well-being, while low scorers feel lonelier. Clearly, strong cognitive skills bring advantages.
28．How does paragraph 2 support its argument
A．By listing test results. B．By showing statistics.
C．By clarifying the process. D．By explaining the reasons.
29．What does the underlined word “deteriorating” in Paragraph 3 probably mean
A．Improving. B．Peaking. C．Restoring. D．Worsening.
30．What probably makes adult literacy decline according to Andreas Schleicher
A．Increasing aging populations. B．Declining job opportunities.
C．Reduced demanding text reading. D．Decreased social media application.
31．What can be inferred about high scorers in OECD tests
A．They are generally happier and better-off.
B．They are less likely to engage in daily life.
C．They tend to score poorly in literacy and numeracy.
D．They have more chances of experiencing loneliness.
The release of DeepSeek-R1 has sent shockwaves through the AI industry, reshaping assumptions about the cost of high-performance AI. Achieving results comparable to OpenAI’s o1 at just 3-5% of the cost, this open-source model has gained immense popularity, topping downloads on HuggingFace and trending among developers eager to explore its capabilities.
A major innovation behind DeepSeek-R1 is its unconventional training approach. Unlike traditional models that rely heavily on supervised fine-tuning (SFT) for step-by-step learning, DeepSeek-R1 was mainly trained using reinforcement learning (RL). This allowed it to develop independent reasoning abilities, rather than relying on pre-set training data. While some SFT was reintroduced later to address readability and language issues, the success of RL in enhancing reasoning performance marks a breakthrough in AI training methodology.
DeepSeek’s rapid progress also shows its smart use of resources. Operating with far fewer GPUs than OpenAI and Google, it took advantage of open-source projects, such as Meta’s Llama models, and used advanced techniques like mixed-precision training and optimized (优化) GPU communication. Although the exact costs remain uncertain, estimates suggest DeepSeek-R1 was created on a much smaller budget than usual, proving that cutting-edge AI does not necessarily require massive financial investment.
Another key advantage of DeepSeek-R1 is its transparency (透明性). Unlike OpenAI’s models, which hide their reasoning process, DeepSeek-R1 openly displays its thought process, making it easier for developers to find mistakes and improve results. This has fueled interest in using DeepSeek to fine-tune smaller, task-specific AI models, making powerful AI tools more accessible.
However, DeepSeek’s dominance is not guaranteed. Open-source innovation moves quickly and rivals like Meta and Mistral are expected to adopt similar breakthroughs soon. Meanwhile, OpenAI’s massive investments, including its $500 billion Stargate project, face growing inspection as cost-efficient alternatives emerge.
Despite concerns over potential biases in DeepSeek’s model, many developers see these as manageable through fine-tuning. Ultimately, businesses and consumers stand to benefit the most, as the increasing availability of high-quality, low-cost AI tools challenges the industry’s traditional power structure.
32．Why is DeepSeek-R1 so popular
A．It is more convenient. B．It dominates AI industry.
C．It is more cost-effective. D．It can achieve better results.
33．What can we learn about DeepSeek-R1 in paragraph 2
A．Its training datasets. B．Its reasoning abilities.
C．Its training method. D．Its processing language.
34．Why is DeepSeek-R1 considered more transparent than OpenAI’s models
A．It makes all of its training data publicly available.
B．It reveals the full chain of reasoning behind its answers.
C．It is designed to answer any question without restrictions.
D．It can use reinforcement learning methods to improve results.
35．What is the author’s purpose in writing the text
A．To introduce DeepSeek-R1.
B．To call for investments in AI.
C．To warn about the risks of AI.
D．To clarify reinforcement learning.
Commitment (承诺) is the firm determination to pursue a path despite obstacles or uncertainty. In a world of distractions, staying committed often feels challenging, yet it unlocks significant growth and mitment alone doesn’t guarantee success. 36 It transforms intentions into achievements, whether through daily habits like early morning runs, professional projects, or supporting loved ones.
At its core, commitment is a silent promise that drives meaningful pursuits. By dedicating ourselves to goals, we uncover hidden strengths and turn ordinary efforts into extraordinary outcomes. In relationships, personal growth or careers, commitment bridges ambitions and fulfillment, fostering resilience (韧性) to overcome setbacks.
Embracing the unknown is central to commitment. Exploring new and unknown areas—like pursuing a different or unusual path—combines excitement and fear. 37 Committing without knowing the outcome builds resilience, preparing us for life’s unpredictability. Every step forward strengthens resolve, much like innovators who dared to explore the unfamiliar.
38 Break goals into actionable steps, match tasks with long-term visions and celebrate small wins to keep motivation going. Consistency matters: small daily efforts add up over time. Building strong habits helps you handle challenges, while reflecting on progress creates a cycle of improvement—success drives more commitment.
Belief in oneself can change things. 39 Think about how a motivational speaker’s strong belief in their message can inspire millions. This belief comes from constant self-improvement and having a clear goal. By developing this mindset, challenges turn into stepping stones and passions become lifelong pursuits.
Ultimately, commitment is a lifestyle. It shapes character, guiding us through challenges and victories. Each step strengthens the belief that anything is possible with hard work. 40 .
A．However, without it, success is impossible.
B．It discourages us from embracing challenges.
C．To stay committed, practical strategies are key.
D．Yet uncertainty holds opportunities for discovery.
E．It requires consistent action, even when progress feels slow.
F．It can fuel passion during doubt, inspiring us to pursue ambitious goals.
G．Embrace the journey courageously, letting commitment be your compass.

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。
It was a sunny Saturday afternoon when 10-year-old Eric and his little sister Sarah were playing joyfully in the park near their home. While chasing a colorful, flying butterfly that seemed like a dancing fairy, they suddenly heard a faint crying sound coming from behind a thick, leafy bush. Curiosity getting the better of them, they exchanged a look of excitement and caution and carefully approached the bush. To their surprise, they found a small, shivering puppy with a hurt paw, its big, sad eyes pleading for help.
Eric gently picked up the puppy, holding it in his arms. “Poor thing,” he said softly, his eyes filled with deep concern. “We can’t just leave it here.” Sarah nodded vigorously in agreement, her little face showing obvious worry. Without thinking twice, they decided to take the puppy home and nurse it back to health.
When they arrived home, their mother was initially shocked by the unexpected guest in Eric’s arms. But as soon as she saw the helpless, trembling puppy, her heart melted. She quickly fetched the first-aid kit, helped Tom clean the puppy’s wound gently and then bandaged it carefully. Eric and Sarah took turns looking after the puppy day and night. They named the puppy Lucky, sincerely hoping its luck would change for the better.
A few weeks later, Eric and Sarah were strolling along the street, chatting and laughing merrily. Lucky, their lovely pet dog was running around them full of energy, its tail wagging happily. As they passed by a community noticeboard, something bright red caught their eye. It was a dog-lost poster with a photo that looked exactly like Lucky. Eric and Sarah froze, their smiles fading instantly. They stepped closer, only to find the description of the lost dog’s features, habits and even the time it went missing all matched Lucky perfectly.

【听力材料】
M: Think for a moment of the last test paper you got back from a teacher. What do you remember most about it Was it the score, the questions you got right or those you got wrong Chances are what you got wrong sticks with you and now you’ll always remember the right answer. It’s the same when learning a language. Before we start speaking poorly and call it good learning, we need to understand how to speak well. A proven way to know how things should be said is to listen. For example, movies, music, TV and short videos can help improve your listening and pronunciation. For lower level learners, try reading children’s books. You can build up sentence structures and basic vocabulary quickly. This will help you move on to harder materials such as newspaper articles. Lastly, remember that making mistakes is a key part of learning. Just like those wrong answers on a test, use your mistakes as fuel to help you improve. Keep practicing and learning from your errors and you will end up making fewer of them. During my years of medical experience in a foreign country, clear and effective communication with patients is crucial. I hope these tips can help you make progress in your language learning journey.

Lastly, remember that making mistakes is a key part of learning. Just like those wrong answers on a test, use your mistakes as fuel to help you improve. Keep practicing and learning from your errors and you will end up making fewer of them. During my years of medical experience in a foreign country, clear and effective communication with patients is crucial. I hope these tips can help you make progress in your language learning journey.

25．细节理解题。根据第二段“It was a clear sky that night and when I parked my car and got outside, what I saw took my breath away. The entire sky above my head was an ocean of light, a sea of stars. I couldn’t believe the beauty of it. I felt the warm summer breeze blow on my face as I looked up at this indescribable beauty and my whole spirit felt uplifted.(那天晚上天空晴朗，当我把车停好走到外面时，我看到的景象让我屏住了呼吸。我头顶上的整个天空是光的海洋，是星星的海洋。我简直不敢相信它的美丽。当我抬头看着这难以形容的美景时，我感到温暖的夏日微风吹在我的脸上，我的整个精神都感到振奋)”可知，作者接女儿的时候被夜空的美丽惊呆了。故选D。
26．推理判断题。根据最后一段“I feel blessed that I could see that beauty and realize that I too was a part of it.

【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章通过引用经合组织（OECD）的研究数据，阐述了富裕国家中大量成年人在数学和阅读测试中的表现不如小学生，以及成人识字率在过去十年中在许多地方有所下降的现象。
【解析】28．推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Finland tops the charts with the highest average scores in all three areas, while the Netherlands, Norway and Japan also fare well. England has climbed the rankings in the past ten years due to young adults’ better performance, but America’s results are worsening. Similarly, Chile, Italy, Poland and Portugal have many below-average scorers; nearly half of Chileans score poorly in maths and reading compared to just 8% of Japanese.(芬兰在这三个领域的平均得分均最高，位居榜首，而荷兰、挪威和日本的表现也不错。在过去十年里，由于年轻人表现更佳，英国在排名中有所上升，但美国的测试结果却在变差。同样，智利、意大利、波兰和葡萄牙也有许多得分低于平均水平的人；与只有8%的日本人相比，近一半的智利人在数学和阅读方面得分较低。)”可知，作者通过列举芬兰、荷兰、挪威、日本、英国、美国、智利、意大利、波兰、葡萄牙等国家在经合组织“成人技能调查”中的不同测试结果，来支持“在许多地方成年人识字率下降以及不同国家成年人技能水平存在差异”这一论点。故选A。
29．词义猜测题。根据划线单词下文“In numeracy, for every country with a rising score, there is another that has seen its score fall. In literacy, more countries’ scores are dropping despite higher secondary school completion and more degrees.(在计算能力方面，每个得分上升的国家，都有另一个国家得分下降。在识字能力方面，尽管中学毕业率更高，获得学位的人也更多，但更多国家的得分却在下降。)”可知，在计算能力方面，一个国家分数上升的同时就有另一个国家分数下降；在识字能力方面，尽管中学毕业率更高且获得学位的人更多，但更多国家的分数却在下降。由此可以推断出，整体的基本技能是在变差的。所以，划线单词的意思和“变糟”相似。选项D“Worsening”，意为“变得更糟”，与此相符。故选D。
30．细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Andreas Schleicher blames less practice at reading complex texts, perhaps due to TikTok, RedNote or YouTube.(Andreas Schleicher认为，这是因为人们对复杂文本的阅读练习减少了，这或许是 TikTok、小红书或 YouTube 等平台导致的。)”可知，Andreas Schleicher认为可能是由于 TikTok、小红书或 YouTube 等，人们对复杂文本的阅读练习减少了，这导致了成人识字率下降。故选C。
31．推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“High scorers in OECD tests earn 75% more than low scorers and report better well-being, while low scorers feel lonelier. Clearly, strong cognitive skills bring advantages.(经合组织测试中得分高的人比得分低的人收入高75%，并且报告的幸福感更强，而得分低的人则感觉更孤独。显然，强大的认知技能会带来诸多优势。)”可知，经合组织测试中的高分者比低分者收入高75%，并且报告的幸福感更强，也就是他们通常更快乐且经济状况更好。故选A。
【答案】32．C 33．C 34．B 35．A
【分析】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章围绕DeepSeek-R1这一开源AI模型的发布及其影响进行了详细报道和评论。
【解析】32．细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Achieving results comparable to OpenAI’s o1 at just 3-5% of the cost, this open-source model has gained immense popularity, topping downloads on HuggingFace and trending among developers eager to explore its capabilities.(这款开源模型仅以相当于 OpenAI的o1模型3%到5%的成本，就取得了与之相当的成果，因此大受欢迎，在 HuggingFace平台上的下载量位居榜首，并且在渴望探索其能力的开发者中成为热门话题。)”可知，DeepSeek-R1仅以OpenAI的o1模型3%到5%的成本，就取得了与之相当的成果，所以它很受欢迎，这体现了它更具成本效益。故选C。
33．主旨大意题。根据文章第二段“A major innovation behind DeepSeek-R1 is its unconventional training approach. Unlike traditional models that rely heavily on supervised fine-tuning (SFT) for step-by-step learning, DeepSeek-R1 was mainly trained using reinforcement learning (RL).(DeepSeek-R1背后的一项重大创新在于其非传统的训练方法。与那些严重依赖监督微调（SFT）来进行逐步学习的传统模型不同，DeepSeek-R1主要采用强化学习（RL）进行训练。)”可知，该段主要介绍了 DeepSeek-R1不同于传统模型的非传统训练方法，即主要使用强化学习（RL）进行训练，所以该段主要讲的是它的训练方法。故选C。
34．细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Unlike OpenAI’s models, which hide their reasoning process, DeepSeek-R1 openly displays its thought process, making it easier for developers to find mistakes and improve results.(与OpenAI那些隐藏推理过程的模型不同，DeepSeek-R1公开展示其思维过程，这使得开发者更容易发现错误并改进结果。)”可知，OpenAI的模型隐藏推理过程，而DeepSeek-R1公开显示其思维过程，也就是揭示了答案背后的完整推理过程，这使得它更具透明性。因此，DeepSeek-R1被认为比OpenAI的模型更透明是因为它揭示了其答案背后的完整推理过程。故选B。
35．推理判断题。根据文章内容可知，文章开篇点明DeepSeek-R1的发布在人工智能行业引起震动，接着从它的成本效益、训练方法、资源利用、透明性等方面详细介绍了该模型，还提到了它面临的竞争以及对行业的影响等，所以作者的目的是介绍DeepSeek-R1。故选A。

This belief comes from constant self-improvement and having a clear goal. By developing this mindset, challenges turn into stepping stones and passions become lifelong pursuits.(想想一个励志演说家对自己所传达的信息的坚定信念是如何激励数百万人的。这种信念来自于不断的自我提升和有一个明确的目标。通过培养这种心态，挑战变成了垫脚石，激情变成了终身追求)”可知，这里强调相信自己的信念的作用。F选项It can fuel passion during doubt, inspiring us to pursue ambitious goals.(它可以在怀疑时激发激情，激励我们追求远大的目标)符合语境，It 指代前文的Belief in oneself，fuel passion和inspiring us to pursue ambitious goals与后文的激励他人、将挑战变为垫脚石等内容相呼应，进一步阐述了相信自己的信念的作用。故选F。
40．根据前文“Ultimately, commitment is a lifestyle. It shapes character, guiding us through challenges and victories. Each step strengthens the belief that anything is possible with hard work.(最终，承诺是一种生活方式。它塑造性格，引导我们度过挑战和胜利。每一步都强化了这样一种信念，即通过努力工作，一切皆有可能)”可知，这里强调了承诺的重要性以及其对人的影响。G选项Embrace the journey courageously, letting commitment be your compass.(勇敢地拥抱这段旅程，让承诺成为你的指南针)符合语境，总结了前文关于承诺的内容，鼓励人们以承诺为指引，勇敢面对生活，Embrace the journey对应前文的经历挑战和胜利，letting commitment be your compass体现了承诺的指引作用。故选G。
