A group of young people in San Antonio is changing plastic bags into sleeping mats (睡垫) for the city’s homeless people. Led by Teens Give Back SATX, these young people are making a real difference for those who need help.
“We often forget how lucky we are to have a bed to sleep in at night after a long day of work or school, and how nice it feels. Homeless people have no shelters (避难所) or even no beds,” said Addie Roberts from Teens Give Back SATX. With this in mind, Roberts and her friends decided to use old grocery bags to make something valuable for San Antonio’s homeless people.
Making these sleeping mats takes time, hard work, and teamwork. Each mat needs about 700 to 900 plastic bags, and it can take 15—20 hours to finish one. Even though the project is a lot of work, the young people are determined to help their community.
“In some weather conditions, these mats can save lives by keeping people off the cold ground,” said Rex Brien, Vice President of Emergency Services for SAMMinistries. Just providing a barrier between people and the weather can really help those who have nowhere else to sleep.
In the past year, Teens Give Back SATX has made around 50 mats, showing how committed (尽心尽力的) they are to helping San Antonio’s homeless people. As the young people keep working to turn trash (垃圾) into treasure, they invite others to join them and make a difference.
4. What is the main goal of Teens Give Back SATX in the text?
A. To teach about trash. B. To help homeless people.
C. To recycle plastic bags. D. To find new ways to learn.
5. What’s the main idea of the third paragraph?
A. Making mats costs more than expected.
B. The young people’s efforts have paid off.
C. The young people make a commitment to their job.
D. The young people help people from all walks of life.
6. What’s one important thing the mats do in bad weather according to Rex Brien?
A. Keep people calm. B. Make a soft bed.
C. Shelter the homeless. D. Block the cold ground.
7. What do the young people want to promote in addition to turning trash into treasure?
A. The sense of belonging. B. Awareness of charity.
C. Public health awareness. D. The sense of satisfaction.
【答案】4. B 5. C 6. D 7. B
【解析】

Even though the project is a lot of work, the young people are determined to help their community.(制作这些睡垫需要时间、艰苦的工作和团队合作。每个垫子大约需要700到900个塑料袋,完成一个需要15到20个小时。尽管这个项目有很多工作要做,但年轻人决心帮助他们的社区)”可知,本段主要讲述这些年轻人对做睡垫工作的付出。故选C。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“In some weather conditions, these mats can save lives by keeping people off the cold ground(在某些天气条件下,这些垫子可以让人们远离寒冷的地面,从而拯救生命)”可知,垫子在恶劣天气下的重要作用是阻挡寒冷的地面。故选D。

This is a video interview. An AI interviewer is on the screen. It asks: “From your resume (简历), we know you took part in an activity; please talk about the role you played in it. “Unlike real people who would size you up in past interviews, this interviewer’s body movements still have a somewhat mechanical (机械的) feeling, so you’re not as nervous as before.”
As AI technology gradually becomes wide-ranging, more and more companies start using AI to improve recruitment (招聘) efficiency, handling tasks such as job matching, intelligent interviews, etc. Some job seekers can also use AI tools for resume preparing, interview practice, and instant feedback.
In the future, will HR (人力资源) be replaced? In response to the question, CEO Ye Xiangyu believes: “As technology develops, the originally inefficient work of HR will be made more efficient. In the vast field of human resources, after AI handles some tool-type tasks, it can free up time for HR to accomplish more and more important other tasks. Above all else, AI will likely extend the capabilities of HR professionals rather than replacing them entirely.”
Perhaps in the future, this industry will experience a brief period of growing pains, but according to existing research data, the majority of job seekers still value human decision-making in hiring processes.
For companies, seizing the AI opportunity and truly improving efficiency with AI technology has become a test they must face. However, the road for AI to empower the recruitment industry is still very long, with software development and technical advancements continually evolving. AI offers guidelines, and downloading insights from AI systems can enhance decision-making, but human’s judgment remains important.
8. How will you be if you are receiving a video interview by AI according to paragraph 1?
A. Less nervous. B. More confident. C. In low spirits. D. More curious.
9. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “handling” in the second paragraph?
A. bringing up B. speeding up C. dealing with D. getting rid of
10. What does CEO Ye Xiangyu think about AI and HR?
A. AI will make HR jobs useless.
B. AI will allow HR to do more important stuff.
C. HR people will have to do different jobs.
D. AI will do all HR work.
11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. AI: A Long Way to the Future B. AI: The Role in Recruitment
C. AI: The Replacement of Humans D. AI: The End of Human Decision-Making
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. B 11. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文,主要介绍了人工智能在招聘中应用。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Unlike real people who would size you up in past interviews, this interviewer’s body movements still have a somewhat mechanical (机械的) feeling, so you’re not as nervous as before.(不像那些在过去的面试中对你进行评估的人,这位面试官的肢体动作仍然有一些机械的感觉,所以你不像以前那么紧张了)”可知,如果你接受人工智能的视频面试,你会不那么紧张,故选A。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段“As AI technology gradually becomes wide-ranging, more and more companies start using AI to improve recruitment (招聘) efficiency(随着人工智能技术的逐渐普及,越来越多的公司开始使用人工智能来提高招聘效率)”和“such as job matching, intelligent interviews(比如工作匹配,智能面试)”可以推出,划线词所在句子表示“随着人工智能技术的逐渐普及,越来越多的公司开始使用人工智能来提高招聘效率,处理工作匹配、智能面试等任务”,因此“handling”是“处理”的意思,和dealing with意思相近,故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中CEO Ye Xiangyu说的话“As technology develops, the originally inefficient work of HR will be made more efficient. In the vast field of human resources, after AI handles some tool-type tasks, it can free up time for HR to accomplish more and more important other tasks.(随着技术的发展,原本效率低下的人力资源工作将变得更加高效。在广阔的人力资源领域,人工智能在处理了一些工具型的任务后,可以为人力资源部门腾出时间来完成越来越重要的其他任务)”可知,CEO Ye Xiangyu认为人工智能将使得人力资源工作变得更高效,允许人力资源部门做更重要的事情。故选B。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第二段“As AI technology gradually becomes wide-ranging, more and more companies start using AI to improve recruitment (招聘) efficiency, handling tasks such as job matching, intelligent interviews, etc. Some job seekers can also use AI tools for resume preparing, interview practice, and instant feedback.(随着人工智能技术的逐渐普及,越来越多的公司开始使用人工智能来提高招聘效率,处理工作匹配、智能面试等任务。一些求职者也可以使用人工智能工具来准备简历、面试练习和即时反馈)”可知,本文主要介绍了人工智能在招聘中的应用,因此最好的题目是B选项“AI: The Role in Recruitment (AI:招聘中的作用)”。故选B。
D
Celebrities (名人) have all sorts of strange diets. One of the latest diets among celebrities is the “OMAD”. Instead of only fasting on certain days or only eating your meals during a specific time window, people following OMAD eat all their day’s calories in one single, large meal.
One study so far has looked at the effect of OMAD in humans. In this study, participants (参与者) were given the same number of calories to eat each day. For half of the study, participants ate these calories in a single meal, before switching (转换) and eating their daily calories in three meals. Each meal pattern was only followed for an 11-day period-not very long at all. The one meal was taken between 5 p. m. and 7 p. m., ensuring a particular flavour to the timing. Only 11 participants completed the study, suggesting a limited results.
When participants ate just one meal per day, they saw a greater reduction in their body weight, indicating a potential association between OMAD and weight loss. However, participants also experienced greater reductions in bone density (密度) when eating just one meal a day, suggesting a need to vary the diet for health. This could lead to reduced muscle function and greater risk of bone fractures (骨折) if the diet was to be followed for a longer period.
While these results may indicate that OMAD could have benefits for some aspects of health, there’s still a lot we don’t know about it. It will be important for future studies to investigate (调查) the effect of OMAD in a larger number of participants and in other groups of people, as this study only included thin, young adults. It will also be important for studies to look at the effect of OMAD over a longer period of time, and to conduct these trials in a real-life setting.
12. What is the primary characteristic of the OMAD diet according to the text?
A. One large meal per day. B. Low calorie eating.
C. Plain flavour. D. Multiple small meals.
13. According to the study mentioned, what effect did the OMAD diet have on participants?
A. Weight gain. B. Weight loss. C. Increase in fat. D. Increase in height.
14. Which group of people were involved in the study discussed in the text?
A. Elderly people. B. Overweight adults. C. Young people. D. Children.
15. What does the text suggest about future research on the OMAD diet?
A. Stopping unnecessary studies. B. Reducing participants.
C. Exploring long-term effects. D. Testing only in the lab.
【答案】12. A 13. B 14. C 15. C
【解析】

【20题详解】
根据上文“Hold on: Hold onto your desk or table with one hand while keeping the other over your neck and head. Be ready to move with the desk or table.(抓住:一只手抓住桌子,另一只手放在脖子和头上。准备好移动书桌或桌子)”可知,本段主要说明了地震的时候抓住物体,不要移动。F项“记住,在震动完全停止之前,不要试图移动”与本段小标题“Hold on”一致,故选F。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了作者吃四川火锅的经历以及对四川火锅的介绍。
【36题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意:令人垂涎欲滴的四川火锅在海外和在中国一样出名,它的辣味足以让一个寒冷的冬夜升温,也足以让一个夏日的下午汗流浃背。由空前enough可知,此处为固定短语enough to do“足够去做某事”,所以此处为动词不定式形式。故填to heat。
【37题详解】
考查固定短语。句意:昨晚我和几个当地的朋友第一次尝试了。固定短语together with“和……一起”,所以此处为介词with。故填with。
【38题详解】
考查代词。句意:当汤在桌子中央的煤气炉上慢慢冒着泡泡时,它的表面覆盖着一层美丽的辣椒、四川辣椒、葱和红油。由空后surface为名词可知,此处为形容词性物主代词作定语修饰该名词。故填its。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:热辣辣的味道使我们的笑声和谈话变得活跃起来,使这顿饭成为与朋友放松的完美方式。该句谓语动词为quickened,此处为非谓语动词作状语,make和逻辑主语前面整句话为主动关系,所以为现在分词形式。故填making。
【40题详解】
考查形容词。句意:四川火锅的诞生地是潮湿多雾的气候,非常适合这里。由空后climate为名词可知,此处为形容词作定语,和空前的形容词damp构成并列结构。故填foggy。
【41题详解】
考查副词。句意:一开始,这道美味的菜肴只是简单地把蔬菜、辣椒和四川辣椒放在水里煮。由副词修饰动词可知,此处为副词simply作状语修饰动词was made。故填simply。
【42题详解】
考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:随着时间的推移,它已经扩展到包括多种选择的汤、蔬菜、肉类和酱料,吸引不同口味的人。此处为谓语动词的填入,根据时间状语Over time可知,此处为现在完成时,主语it为第三人称单数,所以为动词三单形式。故填has expanded。
43题详解】
考查名词复数形式。句意:随着时间的推移,它已经扩展到包括多种选择的汤、蔬菜、肉类和酱料,吸引不同口味的人。由空前different可知,此处为名词复数形式。故填tastes。
【44题详解】
考查冠词。句意:我最喜欢四川火锅的一点是,它们提供了一个很好的与朋友社交的机会,因为一顿饭可以持续几个小时。根据句意以及空后opportunity为单数名词可知,此处为表示泛指“一个机会”,结合great为辅音音素开头的单词,所以为不定冠词a。故填a。
【45题详解】
考查连词。句意:我立刻成为了四川火锅的超级粉丝,我很快就会回来吃更多的!此处为连词and表示“并且、以及”连接两个并列分句。故填and。

Animals Protection, Everyone’s Duty
Dear Friends,
Wild animals are in trouble. They’re losing their homes, facing hunters, and struggling with climate change.
But we can help. We need to do a few things to keep animals safe. We can make more places where they can live without being bothered. We should also stop people from hunting them illegally and selling them. And we can try to use things that don’t hurt animals’ homes. Saving animals isn’t just about keeping cute animals around. It’s about keeping the world in balance. Every animal helps keep things working right. So let’s all do our part to help animals. We can tell others about the problem, help groups that save animals, and make choices that are good for the Earth.
Let’s work together to make sure animals stay safe. Protecting wildlife is something we all need to do.

47. 阅读下面材料,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。
When I was eight years old, my family moved from Japan to Canada. In Japan, I was a lively girl who enjoyed sharing my dolls and jokes and loved making people laugh with my jokes and creating imaginative games to play with my friends. However, when we settled in Canada, I struggled to adapt. I was born shy and wasn’t good at making new friends. During my first days at school I looked at others who were talking in groups happily. How I wish I were one of them!
We settled in a comfortable house with a nice garden where we grew vegetables—my responsibility. While I enjoyed looking after them, I often daydreamed about having a great garden like my classmate Alice’s, with its roses. Despite living in the same neighborhood, Alice and I hardly talked.
It was a hurricane that brought Alice and I closer.
The hurricane struck on an afternoon. The gentle wind turned into a heavy storm, and the sky became dark with thick gray clouds. Gradually, the hurricane took shape. My entire family gathered in the bathroom, seeking shelter from the storm. Frightened, I sat close to my mom, knees in my chest. After the storm had passed, our worries and fears were replaced by relief that we were unharmed and that our house had remained undamaged.
As I stepped outside, I witnessed (见证) the extent of the damage the hurricane had caused to our neighborhood. Across the street, a tall tree had fallen, crushing (严重破坏) Alice’s garden in front of her yellow house. We hurried over to check on it. Fortunately, none of her family was injured. However, her once-beautiful garden was in ruins, with the fallen tree destroying the roses and debris (碎片) spread everywhere. The roses that Alice used to be proud of were gone.

【答案】参考范文
I was imagining how heartbroken Alice must feel seeing this when she appeared in the garden. Alice stood there, her eyes filled with tears as she surveyed the garden. Without hesitation, I rushed to her side, offering a comforting hug. “I’m so sorry, Alice,” I murmured, unsure of what else to say. She looked at me, her expression a mix of sadness and gratitude. Together, we began clearing the debris, restoring what we could from the destruction. After a while, our parents also joined us. We formed a team, uniting our efforts to rebuild what the hurricane had destroyed. As we worked side by side, laughter and conversation filled the air, easing the weight of the tragedy that had fallen on us.
Looking at the restored garden, we could imagine attractive roses next spring. Alice expressed her gratitude, her eyes shining with tears of appreciation as she hugged me tightly. In that moment, I felt a warmth spreading through me, knowing that our friendship had deepened through shared adversity. The restored garden was not just a witness to our hard work, but also a reminder of the bond that had blossomed between us. As we stood side by side, surveying our handiwork, I realized that sometimes, it takes a storm to reveal the true beauty of friendship.

A group of young people in San Antonio is changing plastic bags into sleeping mats (睡垫) for the city’s homeless people. Led by Teens Give Back SATX, these young people are making a real difference for those who need help.
“We often forget how lucky we are to have a bed to sleep in at night after a long day of work or school, and how nice it feels. Homeless people have no shelters (避难所) or even no beds,” said Addie Roberts from Teens Give Back SATX. With this in mind, Roberts and her friends decided to use old grocery bags to make something valuable for San Antonio’s homeless people.
Making these sleeping mats takes time, hard work, and teamwork. Each mat needs about 700 to 900 plastic bags, and it can take 15—20 hours to finish one. Even though the project is a lot of work, the young people are determined to help their community.
“In some weather conditions, these mats can save lives by keeping people off the cold ground,” said Rex Brien, Vice President of Emergency Services for SAMMinistries. Just providing a barrier between people and the weather can really help those who have nowhere else to sleep.
In the past year, Teens Give Back SATX has made around 50 mats, showing how committed (尽心尽力的) they are to helping San Antonio’s homeless people. As the young people keep working to turn trash (垃圾) into treasure, they invite others to join them and make a difference.
4. What is the main goal of Teens Give Back SATX in the text?
A. To teach about trash. B. To help homeless people.
C. To recycle plastic bags. D. To find new ways to learn.
5. What’s the main idea of the third paragraph?
A. Making mats costs more than expected.
B. The young people’s efforts have paid off.
C. The young people make a commitment to their job.
D. The young people help people from all walks of life.
6. What’s one important thing the mats do in bad weather according to Rex Brien?
A. Keep people calm. B. Make a soft bed.
C. Shelter the homeless. D. Block the cold ground.
7. What do the young people want to promote in addition to turning trash into treasure?
A. The sense of belonging. B. Awareness of charity.
C. Public health awareness. D. The sense of satisfaction.
C
This is a video interview. An AI interviewer is on the screen. It asks: “From your resume (简历), we know you took part in an activity; please talk about the role you played in it. “Unlike real people who would size you up in past interviews, this interviewer’s body movements still have a somewhat mechanical (机械的) feeling, so you’re not as nervous as before.”
As AI technology gradually becomes wide-ranging, more and more companies start using AI to improve recruitment (招聘) efficiency, handling tasks such as job matching, intelligent interviews, etc. Some job seekers can also use AI tools for resume preparing, interview practice, and instant feedback.
In the future, will HR (人力资源) be replaced? In response to the question, CEO Ye Xiangyu believes: “As technology develops, the originally inefficient work of HR will be made more efficient. In the vast field of human resources, after AI handles some tool-type tasks, it can free up time for HR to accomplish more and more important other tasks. Above all else, AI will likely extend the capabilities of HR professionals rather than replacing them entirely.”
Perhaps in the future, this industry will experience a brief period of growing pains, but according to existing research data, the majority of job seekers still value human decision-making in hiring processes.
For companies, seizing the AI opportunity and truly improving efficiency with AI technology has become a test they must face. However, the road for AI to empower the recruitment industry is still very long, with software development and technical advancements continually evolving. AI offers guidelines, and downloading insights from AI systems can enhance decision-making, but human’s judgment remains important.
8. How will you be if you are receiving a video interview by AI according to paragraph 1?
A. Less nervous. B. More confident. C. In low spirits. D. More curious.
9. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “handling” in the second paragraph?
A. bringing up B. speeding up C. dealing with D. getting rid of
10. What does CEO Ye Xiangyu think about AI and HR?
A. AI will make HR jobs useless.
B. AI will allow HR to do more important stuff.
C. HR people will have to do different jobs.
D. AI will do all HR work.
11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. AI: A Long Way to the Future B. AI: The Role in Recruitment
C. AI: The Replacement of Humans D. AI: The End of Human Decision-Making
D
Celebrities (名人) have all sorts of strange diets. One of the latest diets among celebrities is the “OMAD”. Instead of only fasting on certain days or only eating your meals during a specific time window, people following OMAD eat all their day’s calories in one single, large meal.
One study so far has looked at the effect of OMAD in humans. In this study, participants (参与者) were given the same number of calories to eat each day. For half of the study, participants ate these calories in a single meal, before switching (转换) and eating their daily calories in three meals. Each meal pattern was only followed for an 11-day period-not very long at all. The one meal was taken between 5 p. m. and 7 p. m., ensuring a particular flavour to the timing. Only 11 participants completed the study, suggesting a limited results.
When participants ate just one meal per day, they saw a greater reduction in their body weight, indicating a potential association between OMAD and weight loss. However, participants also experienced greater reductions in bone density (密度) when eating just one meal a day, suggesting a need to vary the diet for health. This could lead to reduced muscle function and greater risk of bone fractures (骨折) if the diet was to be followed for a longer period.
While these results may indicate that OMAD could have benefits for some aspects of health, there’s still a lot we don’t know about it. It will be important for future studies to investigate (调查) the effect of OMAD in a larger number of participants and in other groups of people, as this study only included thin, young adults. It will also be important for studies to look at the effect of OMAD over a longer period of time, and to conduct these trials in a real-life setting.
12. What is the primary characteristic of the OMAD diet according to the text?
A. One large meal per day. B. Low calorie eating.
C. Plain flavour. D. Multiple small meals.
13. According to the study mentioned, what effect did the OMAD diet have on participants?
A. Weight gain. B. Weight loss. C. Increase in fat. D. Increase in height.
14. Which group of people were involved in the study discussed in the text?
A. Elderly people. B. Overweight adults. C. Young people. D. Children.
15 What does the text suggest about future research on the OMAD diet?
A. Stopping unnecessary studies. B. Reducing participants.
C. Exploring long-term effects. D. Testing only in the lab.

47. 阅读下面材料,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。
When I was eight years old, my family moved from Japan to Canada. In Japan, I was a lively girl who enjoyed sharing my dolls and jokes and loved making people laugh with my jokes and creating imaginative games to play with my friends. However, when we settled in Canada, I struggled to adapt. I was born shy and wasn’t good at making new friends. During my first days at school I looked at others who were talking in groups happily. How I wish I were one of them!
We settled in a comfortable house with a nice garden where we grew vegetables—my responsibility. While I enjoyed looking after them, I often daydreamed about having a great garden like my classmate Alice’s, with its roses. Despite living in the same neighborhood, Alice and I hardly talked.
It was a hurricane that brought Alice and I closer.
The hurricane struck on an afternoon. The gentle wind turned into a heavy storm, and the sky became dark with thick gray clouds. Gradually, the hurricane took shape. My entire family gathered in the bathroom, seeking shelter from the storm. Frightened, I sat close to my mom, knees in my chest. After the storm had passed, our worries and fears were replaced by relief that we were unharmed and that our house had remained undamaged.
As I stepped outside, I witnessed (见证) the extent of the damage the hurricane had caused to our neighborhood. Across the street, a tall tree had fallen, crushing (严重破坏) Alice’s garden in front of her yellow house. We hurried over to check on it. Fortunately, none of her family was injured. However, her once-beautiful garden was in ruins, with the fallen tree destroying the roses and debris (碎片) spread everywhere. The roses that Alice used to be proud of were gone.
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。
I was imagining how heartbroken Alice must feel seeing this when she appeared in the garden.

Looking at the restored garden, we could imagine attractive roses next spring.
