AI can do things like solving problems and making choices. For students, AI is also changing their learning.AI can help students to have special lessons. Every student learns at a different speed. With AI, each of them can get different exercises to do. So they can do better in learning.AI can give students quick feedback (反馈) too. If a student makes a mistake in homework, AI can show what causes the problem and teach him or her how to make it right. This helps students understand their mistakes and learn from them fast.AI can also help students after school. For example, some AI apps can help students with homework. If a student feels it hard to work out a problem, he or she can ask AI for help. AI can also help students practise things like maths or spelling at any time they want. It offers them a helpful way to learn by themselves after school.AI may keep changing the way we learn and help us learn better. But some things will never change, like our own hard work and creativity. These are still important, no matter how much AI helps us.59. (　)What does “them” refer to (指的是) in Paragraph 3?A．Classes.

D.CLibraries in China have changed from their traditional role of storing books to offering users space for quiet thinking and self­improvement.The main reason people visit libraries is changing with the times. Shi Yunxuan, a worker at a library in Shenzhen, said, “In the past, people went to a library mainly to borrow books and get information. Now, libraries have gotten popular among a growing number of young people. They want to improve themselves.”In recent years, libraries have made a lot of improvements. For example, they provide air conditioners, modern desks and so on. Shi said, “Libraries are now more comfortable and the new reading areas offer more seats. With a more comfortable environment, users believe that they can learn more efficiently (高效地) in the library at the same time.” By the end of 2021, China had 3，215 public libraries and they recorded 103 million readers. Tang Zixuan, a student at a Beijing university, said the library was the only place where she could put her mind and heart fully into her studies.Tang said, “I'm afraid of falling behind and this makes me under heavy pressure. I cannot truly enjoy my spare time because I feel the need to be doing things all the time. So how can I find time to relax？” She believes the library is the only place where she can find peace while improving her studies.62. (　)What does Paragraph 2 tell us?A．Libraries are not places to borrow books any more.B．The conditions of libraries have improved a lot.C．People visit libraries for more reasons.D．You can get more information in libraries now.63.

It lies in the north of Hebei Province. Saihanba means “beautiful and high mountains”．Around the 10th century, the rulers of the Liao Dynasty made it a royal (皇家的) hunting place because it was home to beautiful forests, green grasslands, clear lakes and different kinds of wild animals. Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty liked Saihanba so much that he made hunting there a royal festival. The royal festival finally stopped in the 19th century for lack of money and the place had to be open to the public. After that, the cutting down of trees and wildfires changed green Saihanba into grey deserts. By the 1950s, the beauty of Saihanba had completely disappeared (消失) with only one tree left. The tree is now famous as the “Tree of Honour”．On seeing the tree, Chinese scientists made up their minds and dreamed of restoring Saihanba. In February 1962, the plans were made and more than 120 foresters joined 242 local people in Saihanba to begin rebuilding it. Over the next 55 years, those first tree­planters fought against many difficulties to plant trees. After they died, their children and relatives followed them and went on with their hard work of planting trees.Today, the scientists' dream has come true and there is beautiful grassland and flowers again around the “Tree of Honour”. Chinese people successfully changed Saihanba in the past half­century.69.

They are very important for people who can't see. Yu Guanbin, a blind man from Shenzhen, showed us the new changes to the sidewalks for the blind in his city.Yu unluckily became blind over 10 years ago. At that time, it was not easy for him to go outside, as there were few sidewalks for the blind in many places across the city. So Yu easily got lost. He had to stay at home as much as possible. “However, things have changed a lot recently. Most roads in the city now have sidewalks for the blind. I go to work on foot every day，” said Yu.What's more, the new sidewalks are more user­friendly. For example, the sidewalks are 30 centimetres to 50 centimetres away from the green plants along the roads. “On my way to the office, a new manhole cover (井盖) is also put into use. The sidewalk can lie over the manhole cover so we don't need to make a turn like before，” Yu said. Now, most roads have sidewalks for the blind. ____ Some people misuse (滥用) the sidewalks by leaving their cars there. Also, blind people need something to make sound at traffic lights when they cross the roads. Yu hopes to see more great changes in the future.73. Why did Yu Guanbin hardly go out over 10 years ago？(不超过15个词)_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________74.

When he is free, he likes making videos about his trips to villages near Hohhot. He shared more than 10 such videos on YouTube.McArdle saw the big changes in those villages during his trips. The broken roads in the villages have become much better now. He added that Hohhot had opened two metro lines in the last few years.“Now you can easily spend a day in a village. You can go to a restaurant to buy some food. I used to fill my bag with all kinds of food before travelling to the villages. You can go to a small village in the middle of nowhere and pay for everything through WeChat or Alipay. There is always 5G, so I can use the map on my phone to get back to the city，” says McArdle. In some villages, people told him that they could sell local products easily thanks to a growing number of visitors brought in with the help of convenient transport.McArdle thinks China's efforts at poverty alleviation (扶贫) have made these changes take place. He hopes to go on making videos to show real China to the world and do something to help develop the country.In the pastNowGetting informationnewspapers, radio, TVsmartphones, computersCommunicationletters, postcardsemails, WeChat, QQShoppinggo to nearby shopsshop online
