Passage 1 (15 marks)
Read the following passage and answer Questions 11–15.
近年来，新加坡政府大力推动"智慧国"计划，旨在利用科技改善市民的生活质量。这项计划涵盖了多个领域，包括交通、医疗、教育和城市规划。
在交通方面，政府正在测试自动驾驶巴士，以减少交通拥堵并提高公共交通的效率。在医疗领域，远程医疗技术让患者可以通过视频通话与医生进行咨询，这对于居住在偏远地区或行动不便的老年患者尤其有益。
教育方面，许多学校已经开始使用电子学习平台，学生可以在课后通过网上资源复习功课。此外，政府还推出了"技能创前程"计划，鼓励成年人不断学习新技能，以应对快速变化的就业市场。
然而，智慧国计划也面临一些挑战。首先，老年人和低收入群体可能难以适应新技术，造成"数字鸿沟"。其次，随着越来越多的数据被收集，个人隐私和数据安全的问题也日益突出。政府需要在推动科技发展的同时，确保所有市民都能从中受益，并保护他们的个人信息安全。
11. 根据短文，"智慧国"计划涵盖哪些领域？请列举至少三个。[3]
12. 远程医疗技术对哪类人群特别有益？为什么？[3]
13. "技能创前程"计划的目的是什么？[2]
14. 智慧国计划面临哪些挑战？请从文中找出两点并加以说明。[4]
15. 文中"数字鸿沟"指的是什么？请用自己的话解释。[3]
Passage 2 (15 marks)
Read the following passage and answer Questions 16–20.
社交媒体的兴起改变了人们交流的方式。如今，无论是年轻人还是老年人，都习惯通过微信、Instagram等平台分享生活点滴。这种即时、便捷的沟通方式拉近了人与人之间的距离，但也带来了一些负面影响。
首先，过度使用社交媒体可能导致心理健康问题。研究表明，长时间浏览社交媒体的人更容易感到焦虑和抑郁，因为他们常常将自己与他人精心修饰的生活进行比较。其次，社交媒体上的信息真假难辨，虚假新闻和谣言的传播速度极快，容易误导公众。
此外，社交媒体还影响了青少年的学习和社交能力。许多学生在上课时偷偷查看手机，导致注意力不集中。面对面交流的机会也减少了，一些青少年更愿意通过屏幕与人互动，而不是进行真实的社交活动。
尽管如此，社交媒体也有其积极的一面。它为小型企业和创业者提供了低成本的推广平台，也让人们能够与远方的亲友保持联系。关键在于如何合理使用社交媒体，避免沉迷其中。
16. 根据短文，社交媒体带来了哪些负面影响？请列举两点。[4]
17. 为什么长时间浏览社交媒体的人更容易感到焦虑和抑郁？[3]
18. 社交媒体如何影响青少年的学习？请从文中找出一个具体例子。[2]
19. 文中提到社交媒体的积极方面有哪些？请列举两点。[4]
20. 作者对社交媒体持什么态度？请用文中的内容支持你的看法。[2]

Answer Key & Marking Scheme
Version 1 of 5
Section A: Language Use (语文应用) — 20 marks
Question 1–5: Grammar and Vocabulary (10 marks)
1. Answer: (A) 因而 [1]
Explanation: "因而" means "therefore/as a consequence" and indicates a cause-and-effect relationship. The sentence states that because he exercises every day, his body has gotten better — a clear causal link. "然而" (however) is contrastive, "虽然" (although) is concessive, and "即使" (even if) is hypothetical — none fit the logical flow.
Common mistake: Students may choose (B) 然而 if they misread the sentence as expressing contrast rather than result.
2. Answer: (B) 充分 [1]
Explanation: "充分" means "fully/thoroughly" and is used to modify abstract actions like consideration or preparation. "充足" refers to sufficient quantity (e.g., supplies), "充满" means "filled with," and "充裕" means "abundant/plentiful" (often referring to time or resources). The context requires an adverb meaning "fully" to modify "考虑."
Common mistake: Students may confuse 充分 (fully, for abstract actions) with 充足 (sufficient in quantity).
3. Answer: (A) 尽管 [1]
Explanation: "尽管" means "despite/although" and introduces a concessive clause. The sentence says that despite the bad weather, the sports event was still held as usual. "既然" (since), "因为" (because), and "假如" (if/suppose) do not express concession.
Common mistake: Students may choose (C) 因为 if they interpret the sentence as causal rather than concessive.
4. Answer: (C) 审视 [1]
Explanation: "审视" means "to examine carefully/scrutinize," which fits the context of reviewing a company's annual report in detail. "观察" means "to observe," "检查" means "to check/inspect" (more routine), and "考察" means "to investigate/inspect" (often on-site). "审视" best conveys careful, detailed review of a document.
Common mistake: Students may choose (B) 检查, which is plausible but less precise for a thorough review of a report.
5. Answer: (A) 解决 [1]
Explanation: "解决" means "to solve/resolve" and collocates naturally with "问题" (problem). "解除" means "to remove/lift" (e.g., a ban), "解答" means "to answer/explain" (e.g., a question), and "解放" means "to liberate." Only "解决" correctly pairs with "环境污染的问题."
Common mistake: Students may choose (B) 解除 if they confuse "solve a problem" with "remove a restriction."
Question 6–10: Cloze Passage (10 marks)
6. Answer: 渗透 (shèntòu — to permeate/penetrate) [1]
Explanation: "渗透" means "to permeate" and is the most appropriate word to describe how AI has spread into every aspect of life. Alternatives like "进入" (enter) are possible but less idiomatic in this context.
Marking note: Accept 进入 or other reasonable synonyms. Award 1 mark for a word that fits the context logically.
7. Answer: 广泛 (guǎngfàn — widespread/extensive) [1]
Explanation: "广泛" means "widespread" and describes the expanding range of AI applications. The sentence structure "越来越 + adjective" requires an adjective, and "广泛" fits naturally.
Marking note: Accept 普遍 or other suitable adjectives. Award 1 mark for a contextually appropriate word.
8. Answer: 担忧 (dānyōu — concern/worry) [1]
Explanation: "担忧" means "worry/concern" and fits the context of people expressing apprehension about AI development. The phrase "表示担忧" is a common collocation.
Marking note: Accept 担心 or 忧虑. Award 1 mark for a word expressing concern or worry.
9. Answer: 取代 (qǔdài — to replace/substitute) [1]
Explanation: "取代" means "to replace" and fits the context of AI taking over repetitive tasks. The sentence discusses AI's ability to replace certain types of work.
Marking note: Accept 代替 or 替代. Award 1 mark for a word meaning "to replace."
10. Answer: 替代 (tìdài — to substitute/replace) or 取代 [1]
Explanation: The sentence states that human creativity and emotions are things machines cannot replace. "替代" or "取代" both work here. The key idea is that machines cannot replicate human qualities.
Marking note: Accept 代替, 取代, or 替代. Award 1 mark for a word meaning "to replace/substitute."
Section B: Reading Comprehension (阅读理解) — 30 marks
Passage 1 (15 marks)
11. Answer: [3]
The passage mentions the following areas covered by the "Smart Nation" plan:
- 交通 (transport) — testing autonomous buses
- 医疗 (healthcare) — telemedicine technology
- 教育 (education) — e-learning platforms in schools
- 城市规划 (urban planning) — mentioned as one of the covered areas
Marking scheme:
- 1 mark for each correct area, up to 3 marks.
- Students need to list at least three areas from the passage.
12. Answer: [3]
Remote medical technology is especially beneficial for:
- 老年患者 (elderly patients) — who have difficulty travelling to clinics
- 居住在偏远地区的人 (people living in remote areas) — who may not have easy access to healthcare facilities
- 行动不便的人 (people with mobility issues) — who find it physically difficult to visit doctors
Why: Because they can consult doctors via video calls without having to travel, saving time and effort.
Marking scheme:
- 1 mark for identifying the target group(s)
- 1 mark for explaining the reason (convenience/accessibility)
- 1 mark for clear, coherent expression
13. Answer: [2]
The "Skills Future" (技能创前程) programme aims to encourage adults to continuously learn new skills in order to cope with the rapidly changing job market.
Marking scheme:
- 1 mark for identifying the purpose (encouraging adults to learn new skills)
- 1 mark for mentioning the reason (to adapt to the changing job market)
14. Answer: [4]
Two challenges mentioned in the passage:
Challenge 1: Digital divide (数字鸿沟)
- The elderly and low-income groups may struggle to adapt to new technology, creating a gap between those who can use technology and those who cannot.
Challenge 2: Data privacy and security (个人隐私和数据安全)
- As more data is collected, issues of personal privacy and data security become increasingly prominent.
Marking scheme:
- 1 mark for identifying each challenge (2 marks total)
- 1 mark for explaining each challenge with reference to the passage (2 marks total)
15. Answer: [3]
"数字鸿沟" (digital divide) refers to the gap between people who have access to and can effectively use modern technology and those who cannot. In the context of this passage, it specifically refers to how the elderly and low-income groups may be left behind as society becomes increasingly digitalised, because they lack the skills, resources, or access needed to keep up with technological changes.
Marking scheme:
- 1 mark for defining "digital divide" in general terms
- 1 mark for relating it to the specific context of the passage (elderly/low-income groups)
- 1 mark for clear, coherent explanation in the student's own words
Passage 2 (15 marks)
16. Answer: [4]
Two negative impacts of social media mentioned in the passage:
Negative impact 1: Mental health issues
- Excessive use of social media can lead to anxiety and depression, as people constantly compare their lives with the curated, idealised versions others post online.
Negative impact 2: Spread of misinformation
- Fake news and rumours spread rapidly on social media, making it difficult for users to distinguish truth from falsehood, which can mislead the public.
Marking scheme:
- 1 mark for identifying each negative impact (2 marks total)
- 1 mark for explaining each with reference to the passage (2 marks total)
17. Answer: [3]
People who spend long periods browsing social media are more prone to anxiety and depression because they constantly compare their own lives with the carefully curated, idealised versions of life that others post online. This comparison creates feelings of inadequacy, envy, and dissatisfaction with their own lives.
Marking scheme:
- 1 mark for identifying the comparison mechanism
- 1 mark for explaining the psychological effect (anxiety/depression)
- 1 mark for clear, coherent expression
18. Answer: [2]
Social media affects students' learning because many students secretly check their phones during class, leading to a lack of concentration. This distracts them from lessons and reduces their ability to absorb and retain information.
Marking scheme:
- 1 mark for identifying the specific example from the passage (checking phones in class)
- 1 mark for explaining the consequence (loss of concentration)
19. Answer: [4]
Two positive aspects of social media mentioned in the passage:
Positive aspect 1: Low-cost promotion platform
- Social media provides small businesses and entrepreneurs with a low-cost platform to promote their products and services.
Positive aspect 2: Maintaining long-distance relationships
- Social media allows people to stay connected with friends and family who live far away.
Marking scheme:
- 1 mark for identifying each positive aspect (2 marks total)
- 1 mark for explaining each with reference to the passage (2 marks total)
20. Answer: [2]
The author holds a balanced/objective attitude toward social media. The author acknowledges both the negative impacts (mental health issues, spread of misinformation, effects on students) and the positive aspects (low-cost promotion, staying connected with loved ones). The concluding sentence — "关键在于如何合理使用社交媒体，避免沉迷其中" (The key is to use social media wisely and avoid becoming addicted) — shows that the author believes social media itself is neither entirely good nor bad; it depends on how people use it.
Marking scheme:
- 1 mark for identifying the balanced/objective attitude
- 1 mark for supporting the answer with evidence from the passage
