Imagine you can have phone calls with your favorite star． Is it exciting? AI humans might help with it． Today, AI humans are popular at home and abroad ．

After my mother was diagnosed (诊断) with Alzheimer’s (阿尔茨海默病), the plants in our house began to die． In years past, I remember the deep, earthy smell that would rise up in our house after my mother had made her weekly watering rounds． Back then, I never connected it with the caretaking that was at the foundation (基础) of everything she did．

But now, leaves were dropping, some dry and edged with brown, and many of the stems bare (光秃秃的)． It was a mark of how my mother is no longer able to care for all the things to which she lovingly attended． I had been so focused on the increasing demands (要求) of her own care that her beloved plants had escaped my notice．

I began her old rounds, pouring water into the thirsty soil (土壤), and soon they thrived． That’s the thing about houseplants: They demand nothing． They wait quietly, no matter how thirsty they are．

But even after my best attempts, some of the plants could not be revived． My mother’s kind caregivers have since brought new ones to add to her collection, and my father buys fresh flowers every week at the fruit and vegetable market．

Even as Alzheimer’s steals so much of her moment-to-moment memory, her desire to care is still there． I would guide her down the steps to water one of the plants herself with her little white watering can． I watched as her trembling (颤抖的) hands plucked (摘) the leaves that had turned brown． Each time, she smiled up at me with deep satisfaction because being able to care for something is still what brings her the greatest joy．

I look at plants differently these days． I see them as my mother does: quiet reminders of the need for kindness toward all living things． It is clear to me that the things we spend a lifetime cultivating are never truly lost; the love she has planted in me still blooms．

A． By watering them regularly．

B． By plucking the brown leaves．

C． By moving them out of the house．

D． By asking a gardener for help．

3． What brings the greatest joy to the author’s mother?

A． Memories of the past．

B． Her caregivers’ help．

C． Showing her kindness and care．

D． New plants bought by her husband．

4． What message does the author want to convey with the article?

A． We should always care for our family．

B． Alzheimer’s has a huge impact on people．

C． Plants can bring us satisfaction．

Do you know what the body mass index (BMI, 体重指数) is? According to the National Health Service, BMI is a measure (测量方法) that uses your height and weight to work out if you are fit．

Some cities in China have included BMI in the PE test for the high school entrance examination, or zhongkao． For example, Beijing in 2021 announced that BMI officially became a subject of the PE test for the zhongkao． Chengdu and Shanghai have also started similar actions． BMI in cities like Xiamen, although not included in the zhongkao, still plays a role in regular PE tests．

Zhang Yanshu is a grade 8 student from Beijing Chaoyang Foreign Language School． He used to be overweight ． “It was this summer that I decided to work on my BMI,” Zhang said． He started by running with his dad, and soon took a stamina (体能) course which trained him for different things like running, pull-ups and so on． “I think BMI and the events for the exam go well together． When I practice the events, my BMI gets better; when my BMI gets better, I feel more energetic doing the events．”

Zhang also paid much attention to his diet． “I ate brown rice instead of white rice, and chicken for meat most of the time,” he said． “It was for sure sad．” His BMI reached a normal level after four months of effort ． “My health and willpower (意志力) have seen a big improvement．”

Chen Kaifei, 14, also from Beijing said that BMI is also a problem for students who are too thin, and has caused some “figure anxiety (身材焦虑)” among students． “However, mostly I think it has a good influence,” Chen said． “Everyone has a better understanding of their body and health conditions, and I started to care about my diet and lifestyle every day, simply to keep my BMI at a good level．”

F阅读理解

Kao chia-yu (高嘉佑), a 17-year-old student from Taipei Municipal Zhong-zheng Senior High School, Taiwan, and seven music-loving friends held a personal concert in September． Kao showed his talent by performing Henryk Wieniawski’s Polonaise Brillante．

Kao’s journey into music began at the age of 3, and he started violin lessons at 6 and piano at 10． According to Kao, Taiwan doesn’t have graded exams for music education as the mainland does． Instead, children from age 8 can choose government-organized exams, which give access to specialized (专业的) music classes at school．

“I entered the music program in the 3rd grade through the exam． Students from this program have additional coursework related to music theory,” Kao told Teens． In high school, he was still enrolled in the music class, which allowed him to skip other subjects like math to dedicate more hours to music courses．

“This specialized and systematic (成体系的) nature of music education in Taiwan has trained many musical talents, such as Jay Chou and Ouyang Nana． They received strict music training at school,” Kao said．

The most challenging thing for Kao is finding a balance between music and academics． “People say that music keeps kids out of trouble, but we simply don’t have time for mischief (恶作剧),” Kao joked． His days are carefully structured: completing homework during lunchtime or breaks, resting briefly at home after school, and then practicing the violin and piano． On holidays, he doubles his practice hours or seeks guidance from professional teachers． “But the many opportunities to perform on behalf of my school add joy and motivation (动力) into my sometimes boring routine (常规),” Kao said．

After 14 years of music learning, Kao has found that the true essence (本质) of music lies in discovering one’s unique voice, allowing both the musician and listener to immerse (沉浸) themselves in a musical world crafted through personal performance．

This summer, Kao joined the music program at New England Conservatory of Music (新英格兰音乐学院) in the US and performed with students from all over the world． Kao’s passion for music only continues to grow, displaying his technical practice for the craft and lasting love for it as an outlet (表达途径) for personal expression．

1． How did Kao get into the music program?

A． He joined an overseas music program．

B． He passed the government-run exam．

C． He received strict music training at home．

D． He showed his talent at a personal concert．

2． What is the biggest challenge for Kao?

A． Making time for mischief．

B． Seeking professional guidance．

C． Managing music and academics．

D． Representing his school in performances．

3． According to Kao, what is the essence of music?

A． Exploring your individual voice．

B． Creating personal performances．

C． Adding joy into our dull daily lives．

D． Engaging with the musical world．

4． Which of the following options best describes Kao?

A． Modest and funny．

B． Confident and reliable．

C． Hardworking and devoted．

D． Determined and responsible．
