Text, Email, App, or Paper Note?
How Teachers Like to Communicate With Parents
These days, teachers have a wide range of communication options for reaching parents — newsletters, emails, messaging apps, phone calls, and the classic flyer or paper notice.
Modern apps and platforms have allowed teachers to share videos and images, show parents student progress, and provide live updates and announcements to all the families in their class. Still, experts say teachers should be strategic about how they use tech tools to communicate with parents. For instance, they should be mindful of the fact that not every family has access to smartphones with internet access. And teachers should be clear with their expectations and boundaries for using the tools, so parents don’t always expect immediate responses after working hours.
Educators voted in an informal poll (调查) about how technology has affected their communication with parents. Half of the 510 respondents said technology has helped, while 5% said it hurts their communication. Forty-five percent said it has pros and cons. Here are some of their responses.
“Proof of documentation sent. If they choose not to read it or respond, not my problem. There is no more, ‘he said, she said’.”
Elle M.
“No more miscommunication. All papers are saved for parents, students, admin, and teachers. Yes, we had homework. Yes, they were given due dates well in advance. Work was submitted? [Show] me on your computer.”
Phil K.
“I think parents pay more attention when I hand their child a piece of paper. I can send so many reminders electronically and still have parents not pay attention. We have alarms and calendars on our phones, and we avoid using them.”
Christina W.
“Parents still don’t read emails and still only read and respond to text messages. It’s amazing that we haven’t figured this out.”
Shawn R.
1. What do experts suggest teachers do when using tech tools to communicate with parents?
A. Make instant responses.
B. Set communication rules.
C. Provide personalized visuals.
D. Recommend smartphone apps.
2. What do both Elle M. and Phil K. value most about digital communication with parents?
A. Higher efficiency.
B. Reduced paper use.
C. Improved accountability.
D. Greater parent engagement.
3. Which form of communication does Cristina W. find most effective?
A. Phone calls.
B. Text messages.
C. Paper notes.
D. Email reminders.

Steve Jobs may not be the most obvious style icon (偶像) for Generation Z (Gen Z), but his habit of wearing the same set of clothes every day has left an influence on young professionals like me. Unlike fashion-conscious millennials (千禧一代), many of my generation have abandoned creative office dressing, instead it had become common to find one fixed dress code and stick to it. That could be smart or casual, but whatever it is, we’re not varying it.
My first job experience perfectly illustrates this shift. After weeks of interview preparation, I weighed up my first-day outfit. But when I arrived, I couldn’t have been more confused. A senior workmate wore jeans and red glasses, while another stuck strictly to suits. A week later, I realized that there simply were no rules. So I created my own uniform — two pairs of casual trousers from Uniqlo and basic tops.
I’m not alone: a media industry friend repeats modest tops and trousers for interviews; my boyfriend has four gray formal shirts; a roommate’s plain sweaters mirror classic consultant style. A designer friend even sews her name into identical cotton shirts to avoid decision tiredness, joking that her’ work uniform” has become her professional signature.
Why are we doing this? The reality warns us: being taken seriously is a worry. In an unstable job market with a high cost of living, standing out through clothes feels risky. A recent survey reveals that 75% of companies are dissatisfied with recent graduates labeled as lazy people. Uniform dressing helps us avoid attention and focus on competence. Dressing plainly means one less thing to worry about.
Moreover, sustainable fashion isn’t cheap, and tracking trends is both expensive and time-consuming. A Gen Z workmate once wore zebra-print trousers and suffered such judgment that she said, “I’ve now lost my personality.” For many of us, the thrill of striking fashion is no longer worth the price. Safe black trousers it is.
4. Why did the author create her own “uniform” for work?
A. She wanted to copy Steve Jobs’ style.
B.She couldn’t afford fashionable clothes.
C. She was advised by her workmates to dress simply.
D. She found everyone was free to dress as they pleased.
5. What can we learn from the examples of her friends?
A. Creative dressing is preferred in most industries.
B. Gen Z professionals have lost interest in fashion.
C. Many Gen Z professionals wear a uniform to work.
D. Sustainable fashion is becoming popular among Gen Z.
6. Why does Gen Z choose to dress plainly?
A. They are pressured by senior workmates.
B. Companies prefer employees to dress simply.
C. They are unwilling to be the focus in the office.
D. Recent graduates are asked to follow strict rules.
7. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?
A. To analyze Gen Z’s dressing code.
B. To criticize Gen Z’s lack of fashion creativity.
C. To compare fast fashion and quality uniforms.
D. To explain why Gen Z values financial stability.
C
A new study has found that breathing does more than just move air in and out of your lungs — it could even be used to identify who you are. Scientists at Israel’s Weizmann Institute of Science discovered that each person has a distinct breathing pattern, known as a nasal (鼻的) breathing “fingerprint”, a unique pattern that reveals clues about a person’s physical and mental health. Notably, brain scientist Timna Soroka shared, “We were able to identify differences between less depressed and non-depressed individuals.”
The researchers originally set out to better understand how our sense of smell works. In humans, the brain processes smell during inhalation (吸入), and this close connection between the brain and breathing led the team to wonder: could our breathing patterns reflect the way our brains are wired — and be unique to each of us? To explore this question, they developed a lightweight, wearable device that tracks nasal airflow continuously for 24 hours.
The study, published in the journal Current Biology, tested 100 healthy young adults as they went about their regular routines — running, studying, resting, and more. The results showed breathing patterns can identify individuals with 96.8 percent accuracy. “I thought it would be really hard to identify someone because everyone is doing different things,” said Soroka. “But it turns out their breathing patterns were remarkably distinct!”
Beyond individual identification, the study also found clear links between breathing patterns and body mass index (BMI), sleep-wake cycles, and mental health traits such as anxiety and depression. For example, people who scored higher on anxiety tests tended to have shorter inhalation periods. Importantly, the researchers noted that they only know there is an association between breathing and mood, but they don’t know the cause-and-effect direction — whether feeling anxious changes breathing, or a certain breathing pattern causes anxiety. If the latter is true, changing how we breathe could potentially improve mood.
However, the current device has drawbacks: it uses soft tubes under the nose that can be uncomfortable to wear and may slip during sleep, and it doesn’t track mouth breathing. The team is working on improving the device and further exploring the breathing-mood connection to unlock more practical applications.
8. Why is breathing “fingerprint” mentioned?
A. To explain how the brain processes smell.
B. To introduce a newly-invented tracking device.
C. To show a link between breathing and depression.
D. To stress the uniqueness of personal breathing pattern.
9. What does the underlined word mean?
A. Connected.
B. Powered.
C. Controlled.
D. Trained.
10. What can we infer about the relationship between breathing and mood?
A. Changes in breath cure anxiety.
B. Anxiety always causes abnormal breathing.
C. Their exact relationship remains unclear.
D. Breathing is responsible for negative mood.
11. What is the main finding of this research?
A. Our fingerprints tell a lot about our health.
B. Breathing patterns link to identity and health.
C. A groundbreaking device reveals mental health.
D. Anxiety levels link to shorter inhalation periods.
D
For the past year, I’ve managed CRM (Customer Relationship Management) with a workmate who never sleeps, never rests, and has read more than I could in 100 lifetimes. In daily meetings, I ask it to analyze competitors, improve speeches, or find hidden strategic blind spots. This workmate is my AI agent, and we work together constantly.
We are entering the agentic age, the biggest transformation in work history. For the first time, machines can perform not only repetitive tasks but also mental work once reserved for humans. These AI agents — able to think, adapt, and act on their own — are already changing thousands of companies and will ultimately affect every job and person.
As a tech company CEO, I believe this technology can bring huge economic growth and new businesses. It can also improve healthcare, education, and daily life. Yet some experts predict AI will soon reach “artificial general intelligence (AGI)”, matching or being smarter than humans and making people’s skills useless. There I disagree. AI like large language models (LLMs) is powerful but has limits. The biggest advances will come from AI agents that use LLMs and data to understand businesses and drive outcomes.
However, there will always be frontiers only humans can cross. AI has no childhood, no heart. It does not love or feel loss. Because of that, it’s incapable of expressing true empathy or understanding human connection. Those are our superpowers; the forces that spark great inventions, that inspire artistic masterpieces, and that enable us to read a room, earn trust, and build lasting bonds.
The critical question for leaders is not just what AI can do, but what role we choose for it.
At CRM, we’ve made our choice. We are building a new operating system for businesses. It is designed for humans and AI to work together effectively. This is fundamentally changing the way we work. Since the end of last year, for example, customer-service agents managed by our employees have carried out more than 1.3 million conversations, resolving 86% of incoming queries. That’s giving our teams more time to deepen relationships with customers to ensure they’re getting the most from our products.
This is what it means to weave AI into the fabric of business. It’s not about overlaying a new technology on old workflows. It’s about empowering people, restoring time and energy for what matters most.
12. Why is the agentic age the biggest transformation in work history?
A. AI becomes smarter than humans.
B. AI has replaced most human workers.
C. AI can now handle physical tasks efficiently.
D. AI is performing once human-only mental tasks.
13. What can be inferred from the fourth paragraph?
A. AI will eventually develop the ability to feel empathy as humans do.
B. Human connection and empathy are key advantages that AI cannot replace.
C. Great inventions and artistic works are mostly created by AI now.
D.AI’s lack of childhood experience makes it better at logical tasks.
14. What is the primary function of the example provided in Paragraph 6?
A. To predict the future of the company.
B. To illustrate the effect of human-AI cooperation.
C. To highlight the challenges in trying new technology.
D. To explain the technical process of building an AI system.
15. Which of the following best serves as the title for the passage?
A. The AI Agent: A Growing Threat
B. The AI Agent: A Powerful Workforce
C. The Agentic Age: A Future Run by AI
D. The Agentic Age: A Human-AI Partnership

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
A trip to the supermarket has now become more than a simple shopping experience. In fact, it is now carefully designed psychological persuasion. Shopkeepers know how to create an environment that makes customers buy more than they planned. For example, the smell of freshly baked bread can make customers feel hungry and unconsciously increase their desire to buy food.
____16____
Now researchers are investigating how the way people are influenced in their buying decisions can be explained by swarm intelligence. ____17____ If a certain item seems popular, customers naturally believe it is worth buying.
With the help of modern technology, some supermarkets now provide real-time purchasing information.As customers walk past shelves, a small screen may tell them how many other shoppers have chosen a certain product. ____18____ This model, known as a “swarm move”, increases sales without offering discounts simply because it makes customers feel confident about choosing what everyone else buys.
____19____ When they are at home, shoppers still tend to follow the crowd online. Websites like Amazon show rankings, recommendations, and“most purchased” tags. Even being alone, they think they are shopping independently, and they are still influenced by others’ choices.
All these strategies show that modern consumers are often guided by subtle psychological cues rather than rational decision-making. ____20____
A. The idea behind this approach is simple.
B. Thus, it encourages them to put more food into their basket.
C. The same psychological strategies also apply to platforms online.
D. This method reassures shoppers that they are making the“right” choice.
E. People may not notice, but they are constantly being guided while shopping.
F. As a result, these items sell more quickly than cheaper, less visible products.
G. That is, how bees or any social animal, including humans, behaves in a crowd.

47. 阅读下列文章，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。
The Garden Project That Bonded Us
When Dad announced we would transform the overgrown backyard into a vegetable garden, I rolled my eyes while Tom, my 12-year-old little brother, cheered. “It’s a waste of time,” I complained, scrolling through my phone. “We could just buy vegetables from the supermarket.” Tom, however, had always dreamed of growing his own tomatoes—especially since Mom’s birthday was only three months away, and he’d been talking about picking fresh tomatoes to make her favorite pasta sauce. Dad smiled, handing us a list, “Lily, you’ll handle planning the layout (布局) and buying seedlings (幼苗). Tom, you’ re in charge of clearing the weeds and digging the soil. Teamwork makes the dream work” He paused, glancing at the calendar on the wall where Mom’s birthday was circled in red. “Three months is quite enough for those potato seedlings to bear fruit—perfect timing if we get started now.”
The first weekend, conflict erupted. I spent hours researching online but forgot to buy the seedlings, comforting myself “too busy with homework.” Tom was pulling weeds for hours, sweating profusely. Several days later, he marched into the garden expecting to find rows of seedlings, only to be met with empty yard, and then exploded with anger, shouting “You didn’t even do your basic job I’m doing all the hard work while you’re sitting on the couch Look！ My gloves are worn out” I fired back, “Digging is easy My part requires intelligence, not just brute force” We refused to speak to each other, leaving the half-cleared yard in chaos. Dad didn’t intervene immediately; instead, he left a note on the kitchen table, “Labor teaches us responsibility, and teamwork means supporting each other, not blaming.”
That night, I couldn’t sleep, remembering how Tom had helped me fix my bike last year, even though he’d had a fever. Meanwhile, Tom lay in his room staring at the layout paper I threw to him earlier that week, recalling the way I’d lingered over the layout drawings many times, saying, “Mom will definitely love it.”
The next morning, I woke up at dawn, grabbed my wallet, and raced to the store. I came back with not just tomato seedlings but also a new pair of gardening gloves for Tom.
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。
Para. 1: Tom was already in the backyard when I arrived.
