Here are some top travel apps for you to use. Yelp When you are in a new location and need a quick recommendation, Yelp comes in handy. It gives insights into the quality of businesses and services, from restaurants to the way in which they work, based on user reviews. The users can certainly make unfair judgements for personal reasons at times, but Yelp often at least lets you get a sense of what to expect. Zomato In China, there is a good chance you have never heard of Zomato. In some countries, however, it is more popular than Yelp, and it covers the same ground. Zomato is a remarkable crowd-sourced review website, mostly for restaurants. In some regions, you can order delivery food through Zomato, too. Happy Cow If you are a person who doesn’t eat meat or fish, or even doesn’t use animal products such as meat, milk or eggs or if you are only looking for a healthy meal option after eating not-so-healthy meals for several days in a row, you are sure to appreciate Happy Cow. The app and web- site help you find restaurants, cafes, health food stores, and other places to get a meat-free meal. Tripadvisor You can read different reviews of hotels, restaurants and even activities, written by members of the Tripadvisor community, as well as see photos they have uploaded so you know what to expect before you arrive. Tripadvisor has relationships with various booking sites, too, which means once you finish researching hotels or restaurants, you can usually reserve them with just a few extra clicks. 21. What do Yelp and Zomato have in common? A. They provide delivery services quickly. B. They expect users to promote their services. C. They only recommend hotels and restaurants. D. They base their recommendations on user reviews. 22. Which app suits the person who doesn’t eat meat? A. Yelp. B. Happy Cow. C. Tripadvisor. D. Zomato. 23. What sets Tripadvisor apart from other travel apps? A. It is offered free of charge. B. It is linked to booking platforms. C. It recommends nearby attractions. D. It gives correct hotel rating information. B The public footpath lay barely 20 meters from where I stood, promising a walk along the river, passing fields and through woodland, well away from any road. Yet there was something in my way — the River Thames, whose water runs very fast. I checked my map to see how to reach the path, but there was no other footpath that would lead me to the island on which it sat. It was only accessible by boat. It was this path that came to mind when, a few weeks later, I decided to try cross-country swimming, which combines water and walking. As I got into the river — its coolness was welcome on the warm August day — the weight of my supplies dissipated. My back was free, and I simply pulled everything I needed in a bag behind me, feeling almost weightless. I relaxed into the water, my hair flowing around my face as I slowly floated alongside dragonflies, a moorhen (黑水鸡) and her chicks-none of which seemed to even acknowledge my presence. The whole experience went by all too quickly and in no time I was drying off and walking back to the station. Though cross-country swimming was invented to provide a challenge, I believed it had given me something much more important — the confidence to try it by myself. So I decided to return to my inaccessible island, the footpath by the Thames. I got into the waterway and swam, exploring the island’s banks for a while. After 5 minutes of searching, the island let me in: I found my entrance point alongside a tree and pulled myself out. Though the Thames loop wasn’t that long a walk, and the swim was not too big a challenge, it represented more than that. It gave me the chance to pioneer a new route never open to me before, the opportunity to reach a picnic spot that otherwise would have been off limits and, when it came to that footpath, the ability to access the previously inaccessible. 24. What initially prevented the author from reaching the public footpath? A Overgrown fields. B. A thick woodland. C. A fast-flowing river. D. A lack of road map. 25. What does the underlined word “dissipated” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Spread. B. Remained. C. Disappeared. D. Increased. 26. Which word best describes the author’s cross-country swimming experience? A. Thrilling. B. Encouraging. C. Embarrassing. D. Disappointing. 27. What does finding the footpath to the island mean to the author? A. An escape from the real world. B. A chance to get close to nature. C. A mental and physical pressure. D. A symbol of personal achievement. C My husband made a little two-story house that mirrored our own in color and design for our Little Free Library, while I carefully selected books from our shelves. The idea struck us immediately-instead of loading boxes into the car for yet another used book sale, we could simply walk them to the roadside. Fifteen or so years later, it’s safe to say that thousands of books, as well as the occasional DVDs, CDs and jigsaw puzzles have been shared through our little library. Located on a busy street just a few blocks from a subway station, our little library sees dozens, perhaps hundreds, of passers-by each day. Many of those who use our library do not hesitate to share their love of this neighborhood resource. One gentleman regularly stops by to pick up books for a nearby retirement home. At other times, we have received cards and gifts, including chocolates and even a personalized sketch (素描) from a local artist. Like the people who use our library, the books that come and go reflect the broad diversity of our city. Arabic, French and Russian books are the large part among the dominant English-language books. I have even collected favorite books of mine in languages I don’t understand, simply for the joy of adding another edition to my collection. Surprisingly, our library hasn’t solved our book storage problem-if anything, we now have more books than ever before. I have heard some complaints that Little Free Libraries do not always serve the purpose of building community and may compete with our public libraries and independent bookstores. This has not been our experience. We continue to buy more books than we need and we are fiercely loyal users of the public system. Our Little Free Library has enhanced our love of reading and has connected us to a community of book lovers in the heart of our busy neighborhood. 28. Why did the author and her husband build the Little Free Library? A. To prepare for used book sales. B. To make friends with book lovers. C. To deal with their unwanted books. D. To make use of community resources. 29. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. People’s care for the elderly. B. The friendship between library users. C. People’s love for the Little Free Library. D. The exploration of the community resources. 30. What does the Little Free Library reflect about the neighborhood? A. Its cultural diversity. B. Its storage problems. C. Readers’ preferences. D. People’s reading habits. 31. How has the Little Free Library impacted the community? A. It has strengthened neighborhood connections. B. It has become a meeting place for local artists. C. It has weakened public libraries to some degree. D. It has promoted the rise of independent bookstores. D Robots doing housework is nothing new with the latest achievements in robotics. Recently, a robot called Mobile Aloha caught the attention of many at the beginning of 2024, with short videos of it cooking at someone’s home becoming popular in January. Developed by a team of researchers at Stanford University in the US, the robot can handle everything for a dish, whether it is cutting vegetables or cracking eggs. It also does well in various household tasks like watering plants, petting cats, cleaning the floor and doing washing. It even knows to shake the pillow (枕头) after putting on a pillowcase. An Internet user joked under one video that as long as this thing doesn’t try to kill him while he is asleep, he is in real need of it. However, a following video posted by one of the researchers, Tony Zhao, and showing Mobile Aloha’s failures proved that the idea of having a robot servant may just be wishful thinking. In the video, Mobile Aloha randomly broke glasses and plates, crashed into cupboards and even burned a pot. It turns out that Mobile Aloha is not a complete self-learning system that can independently deal with new environments. It relies on demonstrations by human operators in its surroundings, meaning that the robot needs to learn from human behavior before completing each task. Also, according to the team, the robot achieves a 95% success rate in removing red wine stains (污渍), 80% in pushing chairs, and a mere 40% in frying shrimp. In short, it’s far from perfect. The behavioral problems of AI robots have been bothering scientists for decades. Although AI robots do pretty well in things requiring high-level reasoning like math, they perform worse than a one-year-old child when it comes to simple tasks demanding abilities of sense, reflexes (本能反应) and mobility, among others. As the team observed, the interaction between the arm and the base of Mobile Aloha would get quite complex if more flexibility is required in a task. Even a slight deviation (偏差) in the base settings might lead to significant drift in the arms’ motions, resulting in failure to complete the task. 32. What can be known about Mobile Aloha according to paragraph 2? A. It sells well among housewives. B. It can help one to do housework. C. It was developed by IT scientists. D. It is badly needed by Internet users. 33. Why is Tony Zhao’s video about Mobile Aloha mentioned? A. To prove its online popularity. B. To display its powerful functions. C. To show it needs further improvement. D. To suggest it should work under one’s help. 34. How can Mobile Aloha best complete a new task? A By operating independently. B. By copying humans’ behavior. C. By learning from previous tasks. D. By turning to programmers for help. 35. Which type of task may AI robots be poor at? A. Deep learning. B. Precise calculation. C. Logical thinking. D. Behavioral flexibility. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Several years ago, I experienced daily severe headaches that made me want to bang my head against a brick wall. I was desperate to find a cure. ___36___ In my hopelessness, my father suggested acupuncture (针灸), a treatment he had experienced in Hong Kong. It had successfully relieved his lower back pain when other treatments and medicines had failed. With limited exposure to traditional Chinese medicine, I decided to give acupuncture a try. With no particular expectations, I found myself in the office of a middle-aged woman, surrounded by Chinese herbal medicines. After explaining my issue, she placed 3 fingers on my wrist to feel my heartbeat. ___37___ Soon, she took out the needles, which made me somewhat uneasy as such objects typically make me uncomfortable. ___38___ To deal with my headaches, the treatment began on the back of my hand, far from my head. As the doctor gently handled the needles, I got the feeling that something was flowing throughout my entire body. The doctor then continued to tap and move more needles across my body. The electricity was turned on, and the doctor left the room. ___39___ Around the 5-minute mark, the doctor returned and adjusted the electricity level. A moment later, before I knew it, she turned off the electricity and removed the needles, marking an end to the 20-minute process. She then gave me some herbal medicine to take for 5 days. I returned to the doctor for a total of 10 sessions, and each time the same routine was repeated and the same herbal medicine was given. The true benefits of the acupuncture treatment became clear: I remained free of headaches for 2 years. ___40___ If you’ve experienced similar conditions, I highly recommend trying it. A. At last, my efforts paid off. B. I now strongly advocate acupuncture. C. I was then guided to a room and told to lie down. D. Despite trying different solutions, nothing worked. E. My initial experience with acupuncture was quite surprising. F. Though it may seem scary, the acupuncture cured my back pain. G.

Thinking of the first 3 digits (数位) of pi(3.14), you can quickly work out ___56___ March 14 was chosen as the date for Pi Day. In 2019, UNESCO set the day as the International Day of Mathematics to celebrate the beauty of math and stress the essential role it plays in all aspects of our lives. Pi Day was first celebrated in the US in 1988 at San Francisco’s Exploratorium, a museum of science and technology which ___57___ (encourage) visitors to be hands-on. During the first celebration, Exploratorium’s employees marched around one of the circular ___58___ (space) of the museum because pi is the rate of a circle’s circumference (周长) to its diameter.

While playing, Anna said to the kids, “I am going to plant something in the garden. Who would like to help me?” “What are you going to plant, Grandma?” asked Julie. “I like pleasant, bright-colored roses.” “But I like lively, big, yellow sunflowers!” said Fred. “Well, I’m going to plant some vegetables so that we can have fresh vegetables to eat when they are ready,” said Anna. “How long does that take?” asked Erik. He liked vegetables sometimes, especially tomatoes. “It will take several months before anything is ready to eat,” answered Anna. The kids were surprised. “Several months? Why would you do all that work and then have to wait so long?” asked Julie. “Why not just go to the store and buy them?” “Patience, my sweeties! Don’t you know food always tastes best when you grow it yourself?” replied Anna. “And if all of you come to help, it won’t be too much work.” “I’ll help you, Grandma,” offered Erik. He put down the basketball and went to look at the gardening tools Anna had laid out. “What should we do first?” Fred and Julie came over to have a look, too. Firstly, Anna taught Erik how to use a travel (小铲子) to dig rows of small holes for the seeds. Next, she showed Julie how to pour the seeds into each hole carefully. And then it was Fred’s job to cover up the holes with soil little by little. Finally, Julie wrote the vegetable names on sticks that Erik pushed into the ground. “This way we can remember which vegetable seeds we have planted,” said Anna. After planting everything, the kids took turns in filling up the watering pot so that Anna could make the soil nice and wet for the seeds to start to grow. “From now on, we just water them a little each day, and with some time and sunshine, we’ll have some delicious things to eat in the summer,” said Anna. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。 Every time the kids came to visit, they would rush into the garden as fast as possible. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Eventually, Anna said, “It was about time for the first harvest.” ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$null 郑州市2024年高中毕业年级第三次质量预测 英语试题卷 本试卷分四部分，考试时间120分钟，满分150分（听力成绩算作参考分）。考生应首先阅读答题卡上的文字信息，然后在答题卡上作答，在试题卷上作答无效。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What is Ava doing now?

I’ve had the pleasure to see a lot more of the world than anyone my age could reasonably hope to. A few years ago on a vacation trip, for the first time, I made a video of myself dancing wildly in foreign places. I put it on the Internet. Some friends started passing it around and soon millions of people watched it. I was offered money to continue my travels. And since then, I’ve made two more videos that include seventy countries all over the world. A lot of people wanted to dance along with me. So I started inviting them to join in everywhere I went. Here’s what I can report back. People want to feel connected to each other. They want to be heard and seen, and they’re curious to hear and see others from places far away. I share that idea. It’s exactly what drives me to travel. When I dance with people, I see them smile and laugh. It makes me truly excited. 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A With the development of technology, life is made much easier when you travel around. Here are some top travel apps for you to use. Yelp When you are in a new location and need a quick recommendation, Yelp comes in handy. It gives insights into the quality of businesses and services, from restaurants to the way in which they work, based on user reviews. The users can certainly make unfair judgements for personal reasons at times, but Yelp often at least lets you get a sense of what to expect. Zomato In China, there is a good chance you have never heard of Zomato. In some countries, however, it is more popular than Yelp, and it covers the same ground. Zomato is a remarkable crowd-sourced review website, mostly for restaurants. In some regions, you can order delivery food through Zomato, too. Happy Cow If you are a person who doesn’t eat meat or fish, or even doesn’t use animal products such as meat, milk or eggs or if you are only looking for a healthy meal option after eating not-so-healthy meals for several days in a row, you are sure to appreciate Happy Cow. The app and web- site help you find restaurants, cafes, health food stores, and other places to get a meat-free meal. Tripadvisor You can read different reviews of hotels, restaurants and even activities, written by members of the Tripadvisor community, as well as see photos they have uploaded so you know what to expect before you arrive. Tripadvisor has relationships with various booking sites, too, which means once you finish researching hotels or restaurants, you can usually reserve them with just a few extra clicks. 21. What do Yelp and Zomato have in common? A. They provide delivery services quickly. B. They expect users to promote their services. C. They only recommend hotels and restaurants. D. They base their recommendations on user reviews. 22. Which app suits the person who doesn’t eat meat? A. Yelp. B. Happy Cow. C. Tripadvisor. D. Zomato. 23. What sets Tripadvisor apart from other travel apps? A. It is offered free of charge. B. It is linked to booking platforms. C. It recommends nearby attractions. D. It gives correct hotel rating information. 【答案】21. D 22. B 23. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章推荐了一些顶级的旅游应用程序。 【21题详解】 推理判断题。根据Yelp部分中的“It gives insights into the quality of businesses and services, from restaurants to the way in which they work, based on user reviews.(根据用户评论，它可以洞察企业和服务的质量，从餐馆到他们的工作方式。)”和Zomato部分中的“Zomato is a remarkable crowd-sourced review website, mostly for restaurants.(Zomato是一个了不起的众包评论网站，主要针对餐馆。)”可知，Yelp和Zomato的共同之处是他们的推荐都基于用户评论。故选D。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据Happy Cow部分中的“If you are a person who doesn’t eat meat or fish, or even doesn’t use animal products such as meat, milk or eggs or if you are only looking for a healthy meal option after eating not-so-healthy meals for several days in a row, you are sure to appreciate Happy Cow.(如果你是一个不吃肉或鱼的人，甚至不使用动物产品，如肉，牛奶或鸡蛋，或者如果你只是在连续几天吃不太健康的食物后寻找健康的膳食选择，你一定会喜欢“开心牛”。)”可知，“开心牛”软件适合不吃肉食的人。故选B。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据Tripadvisor部分中的“Tripadvisor has relationships with various booking sites, too, which means once you finish researching hotels or restaurants, you can usually reserve them with just a few extra clicks.(Tripadvisor也与许多预订网站建立了合作关系，这意味着一旦你搜索完酒店或餐馆，你通常只需再点击几下就可以预订它们。)”可知，Tripadvisor与其它旅行软件的不同之处是它与预订平台链接。故选B。 B The public footpath lay barely 20 meters from where I stood, promising a walk along the river, passing fields and through woodland, well away from any road. Yet there was something in my way — the River Thames, whose water runs very fast. I checked my map to see how to reach the path, but there was no other footpath that would lead me to the island on which it sat. It was only accessible by boat. It was this path that came to mind when, a few weeks later, I decided to try cross-country swimming, which combines water and walking. As I got into the river — its coolness was welcome on the warm August day — the weight of my supplies dissipated. My back was free, and I simply pulled everything I needed in a bag behind me, feeling almost weightless. I relaxed into the water, my hair flowing around my face as I slowly floated alongside dragonflies, a moorhen (黑水鸡) and her chicks-none of which seemed to even acknowledge my presence. The whole experience went by all too quickly and in no time I was drying off and walking back to the station. Though cross-country swimming was invented to provide a challenge, I believed it had given me something much more important — the confidence to try it by myself. So I decided to return to my inaccessible island, the footpath by the Thames. I got into the waterway and swam, exploring the island’s banks for a while. After 5 minutes of searching, the island let me in: I found my entrance point alongside a tree and pulled myself out. Though the Thames loop wasn’t that long a walk, and the swim was not too big a challenge, it represented more than that. It gave me the chance to pioneer a new route never open to me before, the opportunity to reach a picnic spot that otherwise would have been off limits and, when it came to that footpath, the ability to access the previously inaccessible. 24. What initially prevented the author from reaching the public footpath? A. Overgrown fields. B. A thick woodland. C. A fast-flowing river. D. A lack of road map. 25. What does the underlined word “dissipated” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Spread. B. Remained. C. Disappeared. D. Increased. 26. Which word best describes the author’s cross-country swimming experience? A. Thrilling. B. Encouraging. C. Embarrassing. D. Disappointing. 27. What does finding the footpath to the island mean to the author? A. An escape from the real world. B. A chance to get close to nature. C. A mental and physical pressure. D. A symbol of personal achievement. 【答案】24. C 25. C 26. B 27. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者的一次越野游泳经历，这次经历带给了作者自信心，找到了个人的成就感。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“Yet there was something in my way — the River Thames, whose water runs very fast.(然而有一样东西挡住了我的去路——泰晤士河，它的水流得很快。)”可知，最初是湍急的河流阻碍了作者到达公共人行道。故选C。 【25题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段第二句“My back was free, and I simply pulled everything I needed in a bag behind me, feeling almost weightless.(我的背部是自由的，我只是把我需要的东西放在我身后的一个袋子里，感觉几乎没有重量。)”可知，此处是指补给的重量消失了，所以dissipated意为“消失”。故选C。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段最后一句“Though cross-country swimming was invented to provide a challenge, I believed it had given me something much more important — the confidence to try it by myself.(虽然发明越野游泳是为了提供挑战，但我相信它给了我更重要的东西——自己尝试的信心。)”可知，作者的越野游泳经历是很激励人心的。故选B。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段第二句“It gave me the chance to pioneer a new route never open to me before, the opportunity to reach a picnic spot that otherwise would have been off limits and, when it came to that footpath, the ability to access the previously inaccessible.(它让我有机会开拓一条以前从未向我开放的新路线，让我有机会到达一个野餐的地方，否则这将是禁区，当它来到那条小径时，我有能力进入以前无法进入的地方。)”可知，找到通往小岛的小径对作者来说意味着个人的成就。故选D。 C My husband made a little two-story house that mirrored our own in color and design for our Little Free Library, while I carefully selected books from our shelves. The idea struck us immediately-instead of loading boxes into the car for yet another used book sale, we could simply walk them to the roadside. Fifteen or so years later, it’s safe to say that thousands of books, as well as the occasional DVDs, CDs and jigsaw puzzles have been shared through our little library. Located on a busy street just a few blocks from a subway station, our little library sees dozens, perhaps hundreds, of passers-by each day. Many of those who use our library do not hesitate to share their love of this neighborhood resource. One gentleman regularly stops by to pick up books for a nearby retirement home. At other times, we have received cards and gifts, including chocolates and even a personalized sketch (素描) from a local artist. Like the people who use our library, the books that come and go reflect the broad diversity of our city. Arabic, French and Russian books are the large part among the dominant English-language books. I have even collected favorite books of mine in languages I don’t understand, simply for the joy of adding another edition to my collection. Surprisingly, our library hasn’t solved our book storage problem-if anything, we now have more books than ever before. I have heard some complaints that Little Free Libraries do not always serve the purpose of building community and may compete with our public libraries and independent bookstores. This has not been our experience. We continue to buy more books than we need and we are fiercely loyal users of the public system. Our Little Free Library has enhanced our love of reading and has connected us to a community of book lovers in the heart of our busy neighborhood. 28. Why did the author and her husband build the Little Free Library? A. To prepare for used book sales. B. To make friends with book lovers. C. To deal with their unwanted books. D. To make use of community resources. 29. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. People’s care for the elderly. B. The friendship between library users. C. People’s love for the Little Free Library. D. The exploration of the community resources. 30. What does the Little Free Library reflect about the neighborhood? A. Its cultural diversity. B. Its storage problems. C. Readers’ preferences. D. People’s reading habits. 31. How has the Little Free Library impacted the community? A. It has strengthened neighborhood connections. B. It has become a meeting place for local artists. C. It has weakened public libraries to some degree. D. It has promoted the rise of independent bookstores. 【答案】28. C 29. C 30. A 31. A 【解析】 【导语】本文的为一篇记叙文。文章通过叙述作者和她丈夫建立小型免费图书馆的经历，以及这个图书馆如何成为社区中人们分享图书、增强邻里联系的平台，展现了社区文化生活和人际互动的一个温馨场景。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第一段中的“My husband made a little two-story house that mirrored our own in color and design for our Little Free Library, while I carefully selected books from our shelves. The idea struck us immediately-instead of loading boxes into the car for yet another used book sale, we could simply walk them to the roadside. (我丈夫为我们的免费小图书馆做了一座两层的小房子，颜色和设计都和我们的一样，而我则仔细地从书架上挑选书籍。我们立刻想到了一个主意——与其把箱子装进车里去卖旧书，不如直接把它们送到路边。)”可知，作者和她的丈夫建立这个小型免费图书馆是为了处理他们不再需要的书籍。故选C。 【29题详解】 主旨大意题。由文章第三段“Many of those who use our library do not hesitate to share their love of this neighborhood resource. One gentleman regularly stops by to pick up books for a nearby retirement home. At other times, we have received cards and gifts, including chocolates and even a personalized sketch (素描) from a local artist. (许多使用我们图书馆的人毫不犹豫地分享他们对这个社区资源的热爱。一位绅士经常路过，为附近的养老院取书。在其他时候，我们收到卡片和礼物，包括巧克力，甚至是当地艺术家的个性化素描。)”可知，第三段主要描述了人们对于这个小型免费图书馆的喜爱之情。故选C。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。由第四段中的“Like the people who use our library, the books that come and go reflect the broad diversity of our city. (就像使用我们图书馆的人一样，来来往往的书反映了我们城市的广泛多样性。)”可知，这个小型免费图书馆反映了社区的文化多样性。故选A。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。由最后一段中的“Our Little Free Library has enhanced our love of reading and has connected us to a community of book lovers in the heart of our busy neighborhood. (我们的免费小图书馆增强了我们对阅读的热爱，并将我们与繁忙社区中心的图书爱好者社区联系起来。)”可知，这个小型免费图书馆增强了社区的联系，让邻里之间的书友联系在了一起。故选A。 D Robots doing housework is nothing new with the latest achievements in robotics. Recently, a robot called Mobile Aloha caught the attention of many at the beginning of 2024, with short videos of it cooking at someone’s home becoming popular in January. Developed by a team of researchers at Stanford University in the US, the robot can handle everything for a dish, whether it is cutting vegetables or cracking eggs. It also does well in various household tasks like watering plants, petting cats, cleaning the floor and doing washing. It even knows to shake the pillow (枕头) after putting on a pillowcase. An Internet user joked under one video that as long as this thing doesn’t try to kill him while he is asleep, he is in real need of it. However a following video posted by one of the researchers, Tony Zhao, and showing Mobile Aloha’s failures proved that the idea of having a robot servant may just be wishful thinking. In the video, Mobile Aloha randomly broke glasses and plates, crashed into cupboards and even burned a pot. It turns out that Mobile Aloha is not a complete self-learning system that can independently deal with new environments. It relies on demonstrations by human operators in its surroundings, meaning that the robot needs to learn from human behavior before completing each task. Also, according to the team, the robot achieves a 95% success rate in removing red wine stains (污渍), 80% in pushing chairs, and a mere 40% in frying shrimp. In short, it’s far from perfect. The behavioral problems of AI robots have been bothering scientists for decades. Although AI robots do pretty well in things requiring high-level reasoning like math, they perform worse than a one-year-old child when it comes to simple tasks demanding abilities of sense, reflexes (本能反应) and mobility, among others. As the team observed, the interaction between the arm and the base of Mobile Aloha would get quite complex if more flexibility is required in a task. Even a slight deviation (偏差) in the base settings might lead to significant drift in the arms’ motions, resulting in failure to complete the task. 32. What can be known about Mobile Aloha according to paragraph 2? A. It sells well among housewives. B. It can help one to do housework. C. It was developed by IT scientists. D. It is badly needed by Internet users. 33. Why is Tony Zhao’s video about Mobile Aloha mentioned? A. To prove its online popularity. B. To display its powerful functions. C. To show it needs further improvement. D. To suggest it should work under one’s help. 34. How can Mobile Aloha best complete a new task? A. By operating independently. B. By copying humans’ behavior. C. By learning from previous tasks. D. By turning to programmers for help. 35. Which type of task may AI robots be poor at? A. Deep learning. B. Precise calculation. C. Logical thinking. D. Behavioral flexibility. 【答案】32. B 33. C 34. B 35. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。最近，一个名为Mobile Aloha的机器人在2024年初引起了许多人的注意，它在某人家里做饭的短视频在1月份变得流行起来。文章对这款智能机器人进行了详细介绍。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段前三句“Developed by a team of researchers at Stanford University in the US, the robot can handle everything for a dish, whether it is cutting vegetables or cracking eggs. It also does well in various household tasks like watering plants, petting cats, cleaning the floor and doing washing. It even knows to shake the pillow (枕头) after putting on a pillowcase.(这款机器人由美国斯坦福大学的一组研究人员开发，它可以处理一道菜的所有事情，无论是切蔬菜还是打鸡蛋。它也可以胜任各种家务，比如给植物浇水、抚摸猫、打扫地板和洗衣服。它甚至会在套上枕套后摇晃枕头。)”可知，Mobile Aloha可以帮忙做家务。故选B。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段第一句“However, a following video posted by one of the researchers, Tony Zhao, and showing Mobile Aloha’s failures proved that the idea of having a robot servant may just be wishful thinking.(然而，研究人员Tony Zhao发布的一段视频显示，Mobile Aloha的失败证明，拥有机器人仆人的想法可能只是一厢情愿。)”可知，提到Tony Zhao关于Mobile Aloha的视频是为了表明它仍然需要改进。故选C。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段前两句“It turns out that Mobile Aloha is not a complete self-learning system that can independently deal with new environments. It relies on demonstrations by human operators in its surroundings, meaning that the robot needs to learn from human behavior before completing each task.(事实证明，Mobile Aloha并不是一个能够独立应对新环境的完整的自学习系统。它依赖于人类操作员在其周围的演示，这意味着机器人在完成每项任务之前需要从人类的行为中学习。)”可知，Mobile Aloha需要模仿人类的行为才能最好地完成新任务。故选B。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段第一句“As the team observed, the interaction between the arm and the base of Mobile Aloha would get quite complex if more flexibility is required in a task.(正如研究小组所观察到的那样，如果在一项任务中需要更大的灵活性，那么手臂和Mobile Aloha基座之间的相互作用将变得相当复杂。)”可知，人工智能机器人可能不擅长行为灵活性任务。故选D。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Several years ago, I experienced daily severe headaches that made me want to bang my head against a brick wall. I was desperate to find a cure. ___36___ In my hopelessness, my father suggested acupuncture (针灸), a treatment he had experienced in Hong Kong. It had successfully relieved his lower back pain when other treatments and medicines had failed. With limited exposure to traditional Chinese medicine, I decided to give acupuncture a try. With no particular expectations, I found myself in the office of a middle-aged woman, surrounded by Chinese herbal medicines. After explaining my issue, she placed 3 fingers on my wrist to feel my heartbeat. ___37___ Soon, she took out the needles, which made me somewhat uneasy as such objects typically make me uncomfortable. ___38___ To deal with my headaches, the treatment began on the back of my hand, far from my head. As the doctor gently handled the needles, I got the feeling that something was flowing throughout my entire body. The doctor then continued to tap and move more needles across my body. The electricity was turned on, and the doctor left the room. ___39___ Around the 5-minute mark, the doctor returned and adjusted the electricity level. A moment later, before I knew it, she turned off the electricity and removed the needles, marking an end to the 20-minute process. She then gave me some herbal medicine to take for 5 days. I returned to the doctor for a total of 10 sessions, and each time the same routine was repeated and the same herbal medicine was given. The true benefits of the acupuncture treatment became clear: I remained free of headaches for 2 years. ___40___ If you’ve experienced similar conditions, I highly recommend trying it. A. At last, my efforts paid off. B. I now strongly advocate acupuncture. C. I was then guided to a room and told to lie down. D. Despite trying different solutions, nothing worked. E. My initial experience with acupuncture was quite surprising. F. Though it may seem scary, the acupuncture cured my back pain. G. Lying still, I could sense the electricity flowing throughout my body. 【答案】36. D 37. C 38. E 39. G 40. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了作者因长期遭受严重头痛困扰而尝试针灸治疗的经历。文中详细描述了从接受针灸建议、初次诊疗过程、治疗中的感受，到最终症状缓解并推荐他人尝试的过程。 【36题详解】 由上文“Several years ago, I experienced daily severe headaches that made me want to bang my head against a brick wall.

While playing, Anna said to the kids, “I am going to plant something in the garden. Who would like to help me?” “What are you going to plant, Grandma?” asked Julie. “I like pleasant, bright-colored roses.” “But I like lively, big, yellow sunflowers!” said Fred. “Well, I’m going to plant some vegetables so that we can have fresh vegetables to eat when they are ready,” said Anna. “How long does that take?” asked Erik. He liked vegetables sometimes, especially tomatoes. “It will take several months before anything is ready to eat,” answered Anna. The kids were surprised. “Several months? Why would you do all that work and then have to wait so long?” asked Julie. “Why not just go to the store and buy them?” “Patience, my sweeties! Don’t you know food always tastes best when you grow it yourself?” replied Anna. “And if all of you come to help, it won’t be too much work.” “I’ll help you, Grandma,” offered Erik. He put down the basketball and went to look at the gardening tools Anna had laid out. “What should we do first?” Fred and Julie came over to have a look, too. Firstly, Anna taught Erik how to use a travel (小铲子) to dig rows of small holes for the seeds. Next, she showed Julie how to pour the seeds into each hole carefully. And then it was Fred’s job to cover up the holes with soil little by little. Finally, Julie wrote the vegetable names on sticks that Erik pushed into the ground. “This way we can remember which vegetable seeds we have planted,” said Anna. After planting everything, the kids took turns in filling up the watering pot so that Anna could make the soil nice and wet for the seeds to start to grow. “From now on we just water them a little each day, and with some time and sunshine, we’ll have some delicious things to eat in the summer,” said Anna. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Every time the kids came to visit, they would rush into the garden as fast as possible. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Eventually, Anna said, “It was about time for the first harvest.” ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 Every time the kids came to visit, they would dash into the garden as fast as possible. Not surprisingly, they were going to see how the garden was growing. After watering the vegetables, they would remove the weeds that popped up around the plants and apply organic fertilizer under Nana’s instruction if necessary. As time went by, the plants were growing taller and stronger. When they noticed the vegetables flowering and producing fruits, their eyes were sparkling like diamonds. Never had they looked forward to summer like this before. But they clearly knew that it’s worthwhile to wait for the inviting results. Eventually, Anna said, “It was about time for the first harvest.” Hearing that, the children all jumped into the air and cheers filled the whole garden. Nana gave them each baskets and, together they gathered some of the cucumbers, carrots and tomatoes, which we’re turned into delicacies. “Who wants to help eat this fresh salad?” Nana asked. “Me!” everyone responded loudly. Tasting the salad, they thought nothing could be more delicious, because it was they who grew these vegetables. They all learned that many hands make light work and patience really pays off. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了在一个阳光明媚的早春早晨，安娜和她的孙子朱莉、弗雷德和埃里克在后院快乐地玩耍。他们决定种植一些蔬菜，并且耐心照顾这些蔬菜，最后获得了丰收。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“每次孩子们来拜访，他们都会尽可能快地冲进花园。”可知，第一段可描写孩子们照顾蔬菜的经过以及期待夏天到来。 ②由第二段首句内容“最后，安娜说：‘到了第一次收获的时候了。’”可知，第二段可描写孩子们收获时的表现以及感悟。 2.续写线索：孩子们冲进花园——照顾蔬菜——期待结果——收获——欢呼高兴——孩子们感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①查看：see/examine ②去除：remove/wipe out ③注意到：notice/take notice of 情绪类 ①值得：worthwhile/worthy ②清楚：clearly/ fully aware of 【点睛】[高分句型1] After watering the vegetables, they would remove the weeds that popped up around the plants and apply organic fertilizer under Nana’s instruction if necessary.
