In 2011, the risks became Galeazzi’s reality — he got terribly injured in an explosion where he lost his double legs. “I was a shell of a man,” he said. “Who I was, was gone.” Before his injury, playing the guitar had been a special pastime for Galeazzi. Music had always been important to him. He felt deep sadness because he thought he’d lost his ability to play music. However everything changed when Galeazzi joined MusiCorps, a music rehabilitation (康复) program for severely wounded soldiers who are recovering at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. “We match the injured troops with professional musicians,” said Arthur Bloom, who founded the program in 2007. “They help wounded soldiers play music and recover their lives.” Bloom, a graduate of the Yale School of Music, offers his services to patients at Walter Reed who have an interest in playing an instrument. Program participants practice technique, write and record music. Or they may just get together for a jam session (即兴演奏会). The journey to recovery for many soldiers is a long one. It can require dozens of operations and many years spent in hospitals. There’s so much downtime at Walter Reed, and that’s what they fill up with music. Since 2007, Bloom and his group have helped hundreds of wounded soldiers. For Galeazzi, joining MusiCorps has helped restore his confidence and made him more optimistic about his future. “Something survived that horrible injury in Afghanistan,” Galeazzi said. “Arthur and his program changed my outlook on what is possible.” “I’ve seen guys going through such a hard time with their injuries that they are very withdrawn,” Bloom said. “The music becomes their new way of communicating. It can be just as powerful as the spoken word. By injecting music into this space, we can inject life.” 4. Which of the following is NOT true about Greg Galeazzi? A. He clearly knew the risks he would take of being a soldier. B. He was at one time in total depression about losing his legs. C. Joining MusiCorps started up his enthusiasm in playing music again. D. It was music that played a key role in healing his soul. 5. What does the MusiCorps mainly aim to do according to Arthur? A. To offer the participants professional help on how to produce music. B. To reduce the pain in the participants’ medical treatment. C. To organize music performances by the participants. D. To help the injured soldiers regain confidence in life through music. 6. What is Bloom’s attitude towards music? A. negative B. positive C. indifferent D. neutral 7. What is the best title for the text? A. Music heals the wounded B. Confidence rebuilds one in hopelessness C. He who loses faith, loses all D. Music knows no borders C What is the most shocking about the heatwave affecting the Pacific Northwest is not that it has hit a usually mild area, nor that so many long-standing temperature records are being broken. It is that those records are being broken by such large margins (幅度). In Portland, Oregon, temperature reached 46.6℃(116°F) — making it one of several cities in the region where former records have been beaten by a full 5℃(9°F). At the same time, heatwaves are also hitting central Europe and even Siberia. Heatwaves may become headlines, but less attention is paid to them. In 2018 about 300,000 people over the age of 65 died as a result of extreme heat, mainly in India, a 54% increase since 2000, according to a report in the Lancet, a medical journal. The report also shows that, unlike storms and floods, heat does not lead to dramatic before-and-after pictures or widespread damage to belongings. It is a silent killer. As many as 70,000 people died due to a heatwave in Europe in 2003. Heat also kills by worsening health conditions such as heart problems, so not all the deaths it causes may be directly attributed (归因) to it. Climate change will make heatwaves more common and more extreme. Even if greenhouse-gas emissions (排放) are cut to zero by the middle of this century, temperatures will go on rising for decades. So other measures are needed to protect people against extreme heat. Governments can set up early warning systems to alarm health workers, shut down schools and stop outdoor activities. They can provide the public with forecasts of coming heatwaves, explanations of the dangers and detailed advice on what to do. Improved facilities can also help. This includes providing shaded areas, water parks and “misting stations” to help people cool down, and get to airconditioned “cooling centers” where they can find shelter and sleep if necessary. The world is, undoubtedly, facing a big health challenge right now. There is no excuse for ignoring heatwaves and their effects. 8. What shocks us most about the heatwave in the Pacific Northwest? A. It has stricken a usually mild area. B. It hits central Europe except Siberia. C. Many temperature records are being broken. D. Many records are being broken by large margins. 9. What can we learn from the report in the Lancer? A. People have paid much attention to heatwaves. B. Heat doesn’t cause widespread damage to belongings. C. The damage of heat is as obvious as storms and floods. D. About 300,000 middle-aged people died from extreme heat. 10. What can governments do to protect people against heatwaves? A. Provide some cool places. B. Build nursing homes. C. Organize outdoor activities. D. Shelter the homeless. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Improving Public Facilities B. Taking Heatwaves Seriously C. Preventing Natural Disasters D. Reducing Greenhouse-gas Emission D The development of artificial intelligence is happening rapidly, and two recent events high-light this trend. On May 10th, Google announced its plans to use machine-learning techniques to generate（生成） text in its existing products. Sundar Pichai, the CEO of Google's parent company Alphabet, stated that they are “reimagining all of our core products, including search.” This move is seen as a response to Microsoft's similar functionality on Bing. The use of large language models in AI has been gaining momentum in recent years. These models allow computers to understand human language and generate text that is similar to what a human would write. The potential applications for this technology are vast, from improving search engines to creating more natural-sounding chatbots. However, there are concerns about the ethical implications of AI. Many worry about the possibility for unfair influences in algorithms（算法） and the impact on jobs as automation becomes more popular. There are also fears about the misuse of AI in areas such as monitoring and conflict. Despite these concerns, the race to develop and deploy AI continues. Companies like Google and Microsoft are investing heavily in this technology, and governments around the world are also taking notice. It remains to be seen how AI will shape our future, but it is clear that it will play an increasingly important role in our lives. For English learners, understanding the basics of AI and its potential impact on society is essential knowledge in today's world. As AI continues to evolve, it is likely that more and more aspects of our lives will be affected by this technology. 12. What is Microsoft using large language models to do? A. Understand human language. B. Improve its search engine, Bing. C. Generate text as a human would write. D. Create more natural-sounding chatbots. 13. What does the underlined word “momentum” mean in Paragraph 2? A. Development. B. Worry. C. Challenge. D. Education. 14. What are the third concerns about the ethical implications of AI? A. The possibility for unfair influences B. The misuse of AI in areas. C. The race to develop. D. The impact on jobs. 15. What is the author's attitude towards AI as an English learner? A. Unconcerned. B. Unhappy. C. Doubtful. D. Supportive. 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to treat yourself with kindness Let go of negative thought patterns and beliefs about yourself. Negative thoughts often come from outside people whose opinions we value and from whom we seek love and acceptance. For example, if you forgot to buy litter bags when you got groceries, you might say to yourself, “Ugh! ____16____ How could I forget that?” Instead of calling yourself stupid, you might think, “Oops! I forgot those annoying litter bags. I’ll just pick some up next time I go out -- no big deal.” Accept your shortcomings as part of who you are. Everything you’ve done and everywhere you’ve been is a part of who you are. ____17____ Instead, accept that they’re all parts of the same whole. When you love yourself, you love all of you because you wouldn’t have the good without the bad. ____18____ If you expect yourself to be perfect all the time, you’ll never be pleased with anything you produce. This can lead to low self-esteem (自尊). Instead, make a point to appreciate the work you put into completing a task, rather than looking for faults in what you produced. Practice gratitude for good things rather than focusing on the negative. It’s human nature to see negative things as bigger and more important than positive things, but this also does great damage to your self-esteem. When you find yourself focusing on negative events in your life, immediately try to name 3 to 5 things that you can be grateful for. ____19____ Speak kindly to yourself. For example, if you lose your job, you might think “I’m such a failure. ____20____” Stop. Take a deep breath and be more constructive. Think instead, “I lost my job, but I can learn from this experience to find and keep a new job that suits me better.” A. I’m so stupid! B. I’m careless and awkward. C. I’ll never amount to anything. D. Self-love isn’t about fixing all the “bad” things about yourself. E. Try to come up with just one thing each week to add to the list. F. Look for the positive side even when bad things happen to you. G. Focus on your effort rather than the result to control perfectionism. 第三部分 语言运用（共二节, 满分30分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分, 共15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Many years ago, I worked in a marathon.

She reached up and took another toy, and without asking, threw it in the cart. “Is that for you?” I asked. “No, it is for my friend,” she answered. I was proud of her. Being an only child and an only grandchild, she could have been spoiled (宠坏), but instead she was caring and very giving, almost more than necessary. On the drive home, my daughter was unusually quiet. Finally, she said, “Mommy, if Santa brings all the gifts, why are we buying them?” I quickly tried to think of an answer. Before I could say anything, she shouted, “I know why. We’re Santa’s helpers!” Yes, she took the words right out of my mouth. Yes, that’s exactly what we are. After a few days, she came home from school quite upset, explaining, “Mommy, there’s a girl in my class who’s very mean (吝啬) to me and my friends. She is Lucy. We talk to her anyway, and when we asked her what she was getting for Christmas, she started crying. She said she wasn’t getting anything because her mother is always sick and her father doesn’t have the money to pay for anything, not even food.” I calmed her down, knowing what she was thinking about. One evening before Christmas vacation, my daughter began to wrap (包装) the gifts for her friends. I gave her a roll of wrapping paper, but she came back and asked for more. I thought it was strange, but I was busy then, only telling her to get whatever she needed. On the last day of school I had to leave for work extra early, so I asked my friend to pick up my daughter since she had quite a few gifts to take for the class Christmas party. I never actually saw what my daughter took to school. On Christmas Eve, I went to wrap gifts, but all of them were missing. I looked high and low and couldn’t find them. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 开头已给出。 Finally, I woke my daughter. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Early Christmas morning, a mother and a daughter came to our house. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力1—5 ACBCA 6—10 BABAB 11—15 ABCBA 16—20BBACB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 北大新世纪邹城实验学校2024年第二学期期末考试 英语试题 (考试时间：120分钟 总分：150分) 注意事项： 1. 答卷前，考生务必用黑色字迹的钢笔或签字笔将自己的准考证号、姓名、考场号和座位号填写在答题卡上。用 2B 铅笔在“考场号”和“座位号”栏相应位置填涂自己的考场号和座位号。将条形码粘贴在答题卡“条形码粘贴处”。 2. 作答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用 2B 铅笔把答题卡上对应题目选项的答案信息点涂黑；如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案，答案不能答在试卷上。 3. 非选择题必须用黑色字迹的钢笔或签字笔作答，答案必须写在答题卡各题目指定区域内相应位置上；如需改动，先划掉原来的答案，然后再写上新的答案；不准使用铅笔和涂改液。不按以上要求作答的答案无效。 4. 考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 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.

(它是中国汉族和少数民族的传统节日。赏月的习俗可以追溯到古代夏商时期)”可知，赏月是中秋节特有的庆祝形式。故选C。 B When Capt. Greg Galeazzi joined the Army seven years ago, he was well aware of the risks of injuries or even death he would face. In 2011, the risks became Galeazzi’s reality — he got terribly injured in an explosion where he lost his double legs. “I was a shell of a man,” he said. “Who I was, was gone.” Before his injury, playing the guitar had been a special pastime for Galeazzi. Music had always been important to him. He felt deep sadness because he thought he’d lost his ability to play music. However, everything changed when Galeazzi joined MusiCorps, a music rehabilitation (康复) program for severely wounded soldiers who are recovering at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. “We match the injured troops with professional musicians,” said Arthur Bloom, who founded the program in 2007. “They help wounded soldiers play music and recover their lives.” Bloom, a graduate of the Yale School of Music, offers his services to patients at Walter Reed who have an interest in playing an instrument. Program participants practice technique, write and record music. Or they may just get together for a jam session (即兴演奏会). The journey to recovery for many soldiers is a long one. It can require dozens of operations and many years spent in hospitals. There’s so much downtime at Walter Reed, and that’s what they fill up with music. Since 2007, Bloom and his group have helped hundreds of wounded soldiers. For Galeazzi, joining MusiCorps has helped restore his confidence and made him more optimistic about his future. “Something survived that horrible injury in Afghanistan,” Galeazzi said. “Arthur and his program changed my outlook on what is possible.” “I’ve seen guys going through such a hard time with their injuries that they are very withdrawn,” Bloom said. “The music becomes their new way of communicating. It can be just as powerful as the spoken word. By injecting music into this space, we can inject life.” 4. Which of the following is NOT true about Greg Galeazzi? A. He clearly knew the risks he would take of being a soldier. B. He was at one time in total depression about losing his legs. C. Joining MusiCorps started up his enthusiasm in playing music again. D. It was music that played a key role in healing his soul. 5. What does the MusiCorps mainly aim to do according to Arthur? A. To offer the participants professional help on how to produce music. B. To reduce the pain in the participants’ medical treatment. C. To organize music performances by the participants. D. To help the injured soldiers regain confidence in life through music. 6. What is Bloom’s attitude towards music? A. negative B. positive C. indifferent D. neutral 7. What is the best title for the text? A. Music heals the wounded B. Confidence rebuilds one in hopelessness C. He who loses faith, loses all D. Music knows no borders 【答案】4. B 5. D 6. B 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。讲述的是MusiCorps——一个音乐康复项目。该项目旨在通过音乐帮助受伤士兵重拾对生活的信心。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“He felt deep sadness because he thought he’d lost his ability to play music. (他感到非常悲伤，因为他认为他已经失去了演奏音乐的能力。)”可知，他是对自己失去演奏音乐能力而感到悲伤。并不是因为自己失去双腿而感到悲伤，故B选项“他一度因为失去双腿而极度沮丧”描述与原文不符。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“However, everything changed when Galeazzi joined MusiCorps, a music rehabilitation (康复) program for severely wounded soldiers who are recovering at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. “We match the injured troops with professional musicians,” said Arthur Bloom, who founded the program in 2007. “They help wounded soldiers play music and recover their lives.” (然而，当Galeazzi加入MusiCorps后，一切都改变了。MusiCorps是一个音乐康复项目，专门为在沃尔特里德国家军事医疗中心康复的重伤士兵服务。“我们把受伤的士兵和专业音乐家配对，”2007年创立该项目的Arthur Bloom说。“他们帮助受伤的士兵演奏音乐，恢复他们的生活。”)”可知，MusiCorps主要是通过音乐帮助受伤士兵重拾对生活的信心。故选D。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段““I’ve seen guys going through such a hard time with their injuries that they are very withdrawn,” Bloom said. “The music becomes their new way of communicating. It can be just as powerful as the spoken word. By injecting music into this space, we can inject life.” (Bloom说：“我见过很多人因为受伤而经历了一段非常艰难的时期，他们非常内向。音乐成为了他们新的交流方式。它可以和口头语言一样强大。通过将音乐注入这个空间，我们可以注入生命。”)”可推知，Bloom对音乐是积极态度。故选B。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。主旨大意题。根据第三段“However, everything changed when Galeazzi joined MusiCorps, a music rehabilitation (康复) program for severely wounded soldiers who are recovering at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. “We match the injured troops with professional musicians,” said Arthur Bloom, who founded the program in 2007. “They help wounded soldiers play music and recover their lives.” (然而，当Galeazzi加入MusiCorps后，一切都改变了。MusiCorps是一个音乐康复项目，专门为在沃尔特里德国家军事医疗中心康复的重伤士兵服务。“我们把受伤的士兵和专业音乐家配对，”2007年创立该项目的Arthur Bloom说。“他们帮助受伤的士兵演奏音乐，恢复他们的生活。”)”可知，MusiCorps主要是通过音乐帮助受伤士兵重拾对生活的信心。故该文章的大意讲述的是MusiCorps以音乐为手段，治愈战场上那些受伤的士兵，让他们对生活的重拾信心。A项“音乐治愈伤员”符合文意，最适合作为本文标题。故选A。 C What is the most shocking about the heatwave affecting the Pacific Northwest is not that it has hit a usually mild area, nor that so many long-standing temperature records are being broken. It is that those records are being broken by such large margins (幅度). In Portland, Oregon, temperature reached 46.6℃(116°F) — making it one of several cities in the region where former records have been beaten by a full 5℃(9°F). At the same time, heatwaves are also hitting central Europe and even Siberia. Heatwaves may become headlines, but less attention is paid to them. In 2018 about 300,000 people over the age of 65 died as a result of extreme heat, mainly in India, a 54% increase since 2000, according to a report in the Lancet, a medical journal. The report also shows that, unlike storms and floods, heat does not lead to dramatic before-and-after pictures or widespread damage to belongings. It is a silent killer. As many as 70,000 people died due to a heatwave in Europe in 2003. Heat also kills by worsening health conditions such as heart problems, so not all the deaths it causes may be directly attributed (归因) to it. Climate change will make heatwaves more common and more extreme. Even if greenhouse-gas emissions (排放) are cut to zero by the middle of this century, temperatures will go on rising for decades. So other measures are needed to protect people against extreme heat. Governments can set up early warning systems to alarm health workers, shut down schools and stop outdoor activities. They can provide the public with forecasts of coming heatwaves, explanations of the dangers and detailed advice on what to do. Improved facilities can also help. This includes providing shaded areas, water parks and “misting stations” to help people cool down, and get to airconditioned “cooling centers” where they can find shelter and sleep if necessary. The world is, undoubtedly, facing a big health challenge right now. There is no excuse for ignoring heatwaves and their effects. 8. What shocks us most about the heatwave in the Pacific Northwest? A. It has stricken a usually mild area. B. It hits central Europe except Siberia. C. Many temperature records are being broken. D. Many records are being broken by large margins. 9. What can we learn from the report in the Lancer? A. People have paid much attention to heatwaves. B. Heat doesn’t cause widespread damage to belongings. C. The damage of heat is as obvious as storms and floods. D. About 300,000 middle-aged people died from extreme heat. 10. What can governments do to protect people against heatwaves? A. Provide some cool places. B. Build nursing homes. C. Organize outdoor activities. D. Shelter the homeless. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Improving Public Facilities B. Taking Heatwaves Seriously C. Preventing Natural Disasters D. Reducing Greenhouse-gas Emission 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. A 11. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了极端高温天气带来的影响，并就如何应对极端高温天气提出建议。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。由文第一段第一、二句“What is the most shocking about the heatwave affecting the Pacific Northwest is not that it has hit a usually mild area, nor that so many long-standing temperature records are being broken. It is that those records are being broken by such large margins (幅度).”（热浪侵袭太平洋西北部造成的最严重的影响不仅在于它对一贯被划定为温带的地区造成了冲击，也不仅在于它正在打破许多长期以来的高温记录。而在于它正在以非常大的差距打破这些记录。）可知，最令人震惊的是许多温度记录正在被大幅度打破，故选D项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。由文第二段第三句“In 2018 about 300,000 people over the age of 65 died as a result of extreme heat, mainly in India, a 54% increase since 2000, according to a report in the Lancet, a medical journal. The report also shows that, unlike storms and floods, heat does not lead to dramatic before-and-after pictures or widespread damage to belongings.”（根据医学杂志《柳叶刀》的一份报告，2018年，约有30万65岁以上的人死于极端高温，主要在印度，自2000年以来增加了54%。报告还显示，与风暴和洪水不同，高温不会导致巨大的前后对比，也不会对财物造成大范围的破坏。）可知，高温不会对物品造成大面积损坏，故选B项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。由文第四段后部分“Improved facilities can also help. This includes providing shaded areas, water parks and “misting stations” to help people cool down, and get to airconditioned “cooling centers” where they can find shelter and sleep if necessary.”（改善设施也会有所帮助。这包括提供阴凉区、水上公园和“喷雾站”，帮助人们降温，并在必要时前往有空调的“冷却中心”，在那里他们可以找到住所并睡觉。）可知，政府可以为人们提供降温设施和场地，故选A项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文并结合末段末句“The world is, undoubtedly, facing a big health challenge right now. There is no excuse for ignoring heatwaves and their effects.”（毫无疑问，世界现在正面临着巨大的健康挑战。没有理由忽视热浪及其影响。）可知，本文介绍了极端高温天气带来的影响并呼吁人们重视热浪问题，所以“重视热浪”是文章最佳标题，故选B项。 D The development of artificial intelligence is happening rapidly, and two recent events high-light this trend. On May 10th, Google announced its plans to use machine-learning techniques to generate（生成） text in its existing products. Sundar Pichai, the CEO of Google's parent company Alphabet, stated that they are “reimagining all of our core products, including search.” This move is seen as a response to Microsoft's similar functionality on Bing. The use of large language models in AI has been gaining momentum in recent years. These models allow computers to understand human language and generate text that is similar to what a human would write. The potential applications for this technology are vast, from improving search engines to creating more natural-sounding chatbots. However, there are concerns about the ethical implications of AI. Many worry about the possibility for unfair influences in algorithms（算法） and the impact on jobs as automation becomes more popular. There are also fears about the misuse of AI in areas such as monitoring and conflict. Despite these concerns the race to develop and deploy AI continues. Companies like Google and Microsoft are investing heavily in this technology, and governments around the world are also taking notice. It remains to be seen how AI will shape our future, but it is clear that it will play an increasingly important role in our lives. For English learners, understanding the basics of AI and its potential impact on society is essential knowledge in today's world. As AI continues to evolve, it is likely that more and more aspects of our lives will be affected by this technology. 12. What is Microsoft using large language models to do? A. Understand human language. B. Improve its search engine, Bing. C. Generate text as a human would write. D. Create more natural-sounding chatbots. 13. What does the underlined word “momentum” mean in Paragraph 2? A. Development. B. Worry. C. Challenge. D. Education. 14. What are the third concerns about the ethical implications of AI? A. The possibility for unfair influences B. The misuse of AI in areas. C. The race to develop. D. The impact on jobs. 15. What is the author's attitude towards AI as an English learner? A. Unconcerned. B. Unhappy. C. Doubtful. D. Supportive. 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。这篇文章主要讨论了人工智能的快速发展以及最近发生的两个事件。谷歌宣布计划在其现有产品中使用机器学习技术来生成文本，这被视为对微软在必应上类似功能的回应。同时，文章也提到了人们对人工智能的伦理问题和潜在影响的担忧，包括算法中的不公平影响、自动化对就业的影响以及在监控和冲突等领域滥用人工智能的担忧。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The potential applications for this technology are vast, from improving search engines to creating more natural-sounding chatbots.(这项技术的潜在应用是巨大的，从改进搜索引擎到创造更自然的聊天机器人。)”可知，微软使用大型语言模型是为了改进搜索引擎。故选B。 【13题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线词后面的内容“These models allow computers to understand human language and generate text that is similar to what a human would write. (这些模型使计算机能够理解人类语言，并生成与人类写作相似的文本。)”可知，这些模型的使用能够理解人类的语言以及生成人类写作相似的文本，由此体现出这些模型是在不断发展的。故划线词与A选项为同义词，意为“发展”。故选A。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第三段中“There are also fears about the misuse of AI in areas such as monitoring and conflict.(还有人担心人工智能在监控和冲突等领域被滥用。)”可知，关于人工智能伦理影响的第三个担忧是人工智能在监控和冲突等领域被滥用。故选B。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“For English learners, understanding the basics of AI and its potential impact on society is essential knowledge in today's world.(对于英语学习者来说，了解人工智能的基础知识及其对社会的潜在影响是当今世界的基本知识。)”可知，对于英语学习者来说，了解人工智能是当今世界中的基本知识。故作为一个英语学习者，作者对人工智能的态度是积极的，支持的。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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to treat yourself with kindness Let go of negative thought patterns and beliefs about yourself. Negative thoughts often come from outside people whose opinions we value and from whom we seek love and acceptance. For example, if you forgot to buy litter bags when you got groceries, you might say to yourself, “Ugh! ____16____ How could I forget that?” Instead of calling yourself stupid, you might think, “Oops! I forgot those annoying litter bags. I’ll just pick some up next time I go out -- no big deal.” Accept your shortcomings as part of who you are. Everything you’ve done and everywhere you’ve been is a part of who you are. ____17____ Instead, accept that they’re all parts of the same whole. When you love yourself, you love all of you because you wouldn’t have the good without the bad. ____18____ If you expect yourself to be perfect all the time, you’ll never be pleased with anything you produce. This can lead to low self-esteem (自尊). Instead, make a point to appreciate the work you put into completing a task, rather than looking for faults in what you produced. Practice gratitude for good things rather than focusing on the negative. It’s human nature to see negative things as bigger and more important than positive things, but this also does great damage to your self-esteem. When you find yourself focusing on negative events in your life, immediately try to name 3 to 5 things that you can be grateful for. ____19____ Speak kindly to yourself. For example, if you lose your job, you might think “I’m such a failure. ____20____” Stop. Take a deep breath and be more constructive. Think instead, “I lost my job, but I can learn from this experience to find and keep a new job that suits me better.” A. I’m so stupid! B. I’m careless and awkward. C. I’ll never amount to anything. D. Self-love isn’t about fixing all the “bad” things about yourself. E. Try to come up with just one thing each week to add to the list. F. Look for the positive side even when bad things happen to you. G. Focus on your effort rather than the result to control perfectionism. 【答案】16. A 17. D 18. G 19. F 20. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是善待自己的几种方式。 【16题详解】 空前说“For example, if you forgot to buy litter bags when you got groceries, you might say to yourself(例如，如果你在买杂货的时候忘了买垃圾袋，你可能会对自己说)”，再根据常识可知，发现自己忘了买东西时往往会觉得自己很笨，A选项“I’m so stupid!(我真笨！)”说的是“我真笨”，和空前忘了买垃圾袋的语境相符合，故选A。 【17题详解】 空前说“Accept your shortcomings as part of who you are. Everything you’ve done and everywhere you’ve been is a part of who you are.(接受你的缺点作为你自己的一部分。你所做的每一件事，你去过的每一个地方都是你的一部分。)”，所以说要接受自己，不要觉得自己很不好，D选项“Self-love isn’t about fixing all the “bad” things about yourself.(自爱并不是要纠正自己所有的“坏”。)”说明了要自爱就不要纠正自己所有的不好，和空后的“Instead, accept that they’re all parts of the same whole.(相反，接受它们都是同一个整体的一部分。)”所说的接受那些不好相一致，因此D选项承上启下，符合语境，故选D。 【18题详解】 空格处是本段主题句，由空后的“Instead, make a point to appreciate the work you put into completing a task, rather than looking for faults in what you produced.(相反，你应该感谢你为完成一项任务所付出的努力，而不是在你所做的事情中寻找错误。)”可知，本段主要讲的是要感谢自己的努力，G选项“Focus on your effort rather than the result to control perfectionism.(关注你的努力而不是结果来控制完美主义。)”说明了要关注自己的努力，概括了本段主要内容，可作为主题句，故选G。 19题详解】 空前说“When you find yourself focusing on negative events in your life, immediately try to name 3 to 5 things that you can be grateful for.(当你发现自己专注于生活中的消极事件时，立即试着说出3到5件你可以感激的事情。)”，这说明不要关注消极的东西，要关注积极的东西，F选项“Look for the positive side even when bad things happen to you.(即使不好的事情发生在你身上，也要看到积极的一面。)”说明了要看到积极的东西，因此承接上文，符合语境，故选F。 【20题详解】 空前说“I’m such a failure.(我真是个失败者。)”，空格处也应该是类似于这样的否定自己的话，空后说“Think instead, “I lost my job, but I can learn from this experience to find and keep a new job that suits me better.”(相反，你可以这样想：“我丢了工作，但我可以从这次经历中学习，找到并留住一份更适合我的新工作。”)”，这说明空格处是在丢了工作时会说的否定自己的话，应该类似于“我会一事无成”之类的，C选项“I’ll never amount to anything.(我将一事无成。)”符合语境，故选C。 第三部分 语言运用（共二节, 满分30分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分, 共15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Many years ago, I worked in a marathon.

She reached up and took another toy, and without asking, threw it in the cart. “Is that for you?” I asked. “No, it is for my friend,” she answered. I was proud of her. Being an only child and an only grandchild, she could have been spoiled (宠坏), but instead she was caring and very giving, almost more than necessary. On the drive home, my daughter was unusually quiet. Finally, she said, “Mommy, if Santa brings all the gifts, why are we buying them?” I quickly tried to think of an answer. Before I could say anything, she shouted, “I know why. We’re Santa’s helpers!” Yes, she took the words right out of my mouth. Yes, that’s exactly what we are. After a few days, she came home from school quite upset, explaining, “Mommy, there’s a girl in my class who’s very mean (吝啬) to me and my friends. She is Lucy. We talk to her anyway, and when we asked her what she was getting for Christmas, she started crying. She said she wasn’t getting anything because her mother is always sick and her father doesn’t have the money to pay for anything, not even food.” I calmed her down, knowing what she was thinking about. One evening before Christmas vacation, my daughter began to wrap (包装) the gifts for her friends. I gave her a roll of wrapping paper, but she came back and asked for more. I thought it was strange, but I was busy then, only telling her to get whatever she needed. On the last day of school, I had to leave for work extra early, so I asked my friend to pick up my daughter since she had quite a few gifts to take for the class Christmas party. I never actually saw what my daughter took to school. On Christmas Eve, I went to wrap gifts, but all of them were missing. I looked high and low and couldn’t find them. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 开头已给出。 Finally, I woke my daughter. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Early Christmas morning, a mother and a daughter came to our house. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Finally, I woke my daughter. I frantically searched for the missing gifts but was unable to find them anywhere. My daughter looked at me with concern in her eyes. Sensing my distress, she gently took my hand and said, “Mommy, don’t worry. Everything will be okay. Maybe our missing gifts weren't meant for us. Maybe they were meant for someone who needed them more.” Her words struck a chord within me. Early Christmas morning, a mother and a daughter came to our house. A knock on the door interrupted our thoughts. Standing before me was Lucy and her mother, holding a beautifully wrapped gift. Tears welled up in my eyes as I realized that my daughter’s intuition had led her to do something extraordinary. Lucy’s mother explained that my daughter had secretly packed the missing gifts and brought them to school for Lucy. In a selfless act of kindness, she had brightened Lucy’s Christmas and touched the hearts of everyone in her class. Hearing this, my heart swelled with pride as I saw the pure joy on my daughter’s face. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了在购物时，女儿自发地为朋友拿了一个玩具放进购物车，展现了她关心他人和乐于施予的特质。她同时也引发了关于圣诞节礼物的问题，最终意识到他们作为圣诞老人的助手应该帮助他人，而不仅仅是接受礼物。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“终于，我叫醒了女儿。”可知第一段可描写作者要找丢失的礼物，女儿安慰作者并说出了自己的想法。 ②由第二段首句内容“圣诞节的清晨，一对母女来到我们家。”可知第二段可描写丢失礼物的真相，女儿的善举让作者很感动。 2.续写线索：叫醒女儿——找礼物——女儿安慰——敲门声——精美的礼物——感动 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①找到：find/get/seek/search ②打断：interrupted/break/disrupted ③意识到：realized/aware/conscious/noticed 情绪类 ①担心：worry/fear/concerned/ ②喜悦：delight/happiness/pleasure/gladness 【点睛】[高分句型1].Lucy’s mother explained that my daughter had secretly packed the missing gifts and brought them to school for Lucy.
