阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。
This term, our teacher introduces a fun AI tool to us—it’s called “Little Learning Buddy”, and it becomes my helper for homework and learning. It’s not a toy—it’s a tool that makes studying fun.
First, it helps me with English. When I can’t read a new word, I type it into the AI tool and it reads the word slowly and tells me its meaning. I can also practise English dialogues（对话）with it. I say sentences about “my hobbies”, and it helps with my pronunciation（发音）if I make a mistake. Second, it helps with maths exercises. I pick topics like “time” or “distance（距离）”. If I get a problem wrong, it doesn’t just tell me the answer—it shows me how to solve it step by step, like a patient teacher.
But my favourite part is the “fun fact” time. After finishing 20 minutes of practice, the AI shares a short, interesting fact, like “How does AI recognize（辨认）pictures?” or “What can AI do in daily life?” These facts are short and easy to understand. I always learn something new and I also know that some AI can help with rubbish or even help doctors check simple health problems!
AI can do a lot of work for us. But our teachers tell us not to use AI too often, because it’s just a helper, not a replacement（替代品）for our own thinking.
24. What’s the AI tool’s name?

25. According to the passage, what subjects does the AI tool help with?

26. What is the writer’s favourite part of the AI tool?

27. Why can’t we use AI too often?


28. What do you think of the AI tool?

24.Little Learning Buddy. 根据第一段中的“our teacher introduces a fun AI tool to us—it's called ‘Little Learning Buddy’”可知，这个 AI 工具的名字是 Little Learning Buddy。
25.English and maths. 根据第二段中的“First, it helps me with English.”和“Second, it helps with maths exercises.”可知，AI 工具帮助作者学习英语和数学。
26.The “fun fact” time. 根据第三段中的“But my favourite part is the ‘fun fact’ time.”可知，作者最喜欢的部分是 the “fun fact” time。
27.Because it's just a helper, not a replacement for our own thinking. 根据最后一段中的“But our teachers tell us not to use AI too often, because it's just a helper, not a replacement for our own thinking.”可知，不要过于频繁地使用人工智能，因为它只是个辅助工具，不能取代我们自身的思考能力。
28.Useful and fun./Good./Great./Meaningful. 本题为开放性试题，答案不唯一，言之有理即可。
