The winners have offered unique, nature-inspired ideas to solve local design challenges. Green Buoy (浮标) Oyster farming in South Korea is an industry that contributes to microplastic pollution in the ocean through the breakdown of buoys. Team Design Matter from Seoul created Green Buoy, which is made from a material that breaks down naturally, removing the risk of microplastic pollution and promoting sustainable marine farming. The team took inspiration from a water plant, mimicking its dome-shaped air pockets to provide buoyancy. They designed the buoy connector modules by studying the way that seahorses use their tails to hold firmly onto coral reefs. The Beenard’s Canopy Access to clean and affordable drinking water is still not a universal reality, particularly in South Sudan. Team A Squared from Beijing designed the Beenard’s Canopy. Inspired by the Namib Beetle, Moloch Lizard, and the Desert Rattlesnake, their device gathers the dew in the air, channels the collected water through a filter (过滤器) , and stores the water in a container for drinking purpose. The idea addresses the problem of lack of access to clean water by providing an economically practical solution. Rain Net In recent years, extreme weather has caused severe flooding in California, and yet, for most of this team’s life, California has been in a drought. Addressing both problems at once, the team designed a rain catchment device, Rain Net. Inspired by how plants move water and the patterns of leaf veins, the Rain Net has got inspiration from the xylem (木质部) in plants, in its design of tubes that guide, collect, and filter rainwater. The invention could be adapted to fit various roofs and the design makes it possible to connect various “nets,” allowing for more than one drainage (排水) system. 1. What problem did Team Design Matter intend to solve? A. Coral reef damage. B. Microplastic pollution. C. Marine diversity loss. D. Low oyster production. 2. What inspired the solution to urban flooding? A. Desert creatures. B. The shapes of leaves. C. Water movement in plants. D. The network of plant roots. 3. What is the purpose of the passage? A. To promote YDC program. B. To introduce the 2024 YDC winners. C. To advertise nature-inspired designs. D. To explain the concept of biomimicry. B Dr. Jane Goodall was only 26 when she traveled to Tanzania to learn about wild chimpanzees in 1960. The world knew very little about the species at the time. Over the course of six decades, her groundbreaking research has transformed the way we see human relationships with chimpanzees and has showed us an entirely new method for wildlife research. Goodall’s research was revolutionary because she integrated herself within the wild chimpanzee communities to learn about their social and familial interactions. She named each animal and formed close bonds with them, learning how very similar they were to us. “Their behavior, with their gestures, kissing, embracing, holding hands,” she said of what she learned about chimpanzees in her research. “In fact, they can use and make tools, the fact they can be violent and can have a kind of war — but they are also loving and selfless.” Goodall said even after all this time, there is still so much to learn from them. “It’s like if you’re watching a group of people. New ideas crop up. New behaviors start. That means an evolving culture.” In addition to her research, she has been a tireless advocate for conservation and animal rights and has been an outspoken climate change activist. She says the coronavirus pandemic has shown us how humans are affecting our global ecosystem. “We brought this pandemic to a large extent on ourselves — we have disrespected the natural world and animals, and we’ve been cutting down forests. Animals are being driven in closer contact with people.” she said. “This creates a fantastic environment where animal-to-human disease can be transmitted.” She warns while we’ve made it through COVID-19, climate change, another result of humans “disrespecting” the earth, will be a tougher opponent. However, she remains hopeful. She urges global collective action and a renewed commitment, which, she believes, can help turn the tide. “It’s cooperation that we need if we’re going to reverse climate change and loss of biodiversity.” she said. 4. What was Goodall’s new method for chimpanzee research? A. Analyzing experimental data. B. Observing and recording their behavior. C. Living among them in the wild. D. Grouping them and making comparisons. 5. What is the groundbreaking finding of Goodall? A. Chimpanzees are endangered species. B. Chimpanzees are ancestors of humans. C. Chimpanzees have their own language. D. Chimpanzees have complex social systems. 6. Why did Goodall mention COVID-19? A. To stress the need of global cooperation. B. To highlight the value of pandemic prevention. C. To show the consequences of disrespecting nature. D. To reveal the impact of COVID-19 on global health. 7. In which column of a magazine is this text most likely to appear? A. Pioneer. B. Opinion. C. Wildlife. D. Lifestyle. C When you watch a great film, there’s always a great mix of everything you enjoy: Explosions! Exotic (异国的) locations! Amazing stunts (特技)! And all of it anchored by famous A-list actors. However, all that could soon be changed. Hollywood was rocked recently by an AI program called Sora. All you need to do is type in a description of what you want to watch, and it creates a video up to one minute long. This is possible because the programme has been fed thousands of hours of existing videos, searched through them for patterns, and then used this learning to create new content. As it develops, this technology could allow filmmakers to greatly expand their creativity. Simply give the computer program a script (脚本), tell it what actors you want, and it will create a movie for you. This will make it much cheaper to make films. AI might even help to create films tailored to personal tastes by analyzing viewing history and making a custom movie. Amazing developments in AI could fuel a new era of filmmaking. However, there are concerns. Many argue that AI can’t be truly creative, as humans are. AI expert Bernard Marr writes, “No matter how impressive a piece of computer-created artwork might be, it’s always built from blocks carved out of the data that’s used to train it.” AI actors could lead to a flood of poor quality, cheap films. As AI films copy and remix data from each other, researchers warn that this could lead to a “downward spiral”, where films become more similar and more boring over time. “Human emotion must always come first” says Avatar director James Cameron. AI actors may never recreate the complexity of emotions that humans can. They will probably stay trapped in the “uncanny valley” — the uncomfortable feeling we get when we see something that’s almost — but not quite — human. 8 Why is Sora mentioned in the text? A. To explain the principles of AI filmmaking. B. To highlight AI’s impact on filmmakers’ creativity. C. To show how AI can change traditional filmmaking. D. To introduce an AI program for creating custom films. 9. What is a possible concern about AI films? A. They may cause copyright issues. B. They may be much like each other. C. They may change the way humans enjoy films. D. They may not be as impressive as human-made films. 10. How do people typically feel about AI actors imitating human emotions? A. Awkward. B. Confused. C. Frightened. D. Shocked. 11. What is the best title of the text? A. Sora Is Shaking Hollywood B. Create Your Films with Sora C. Should AI Replace Real Actors? D. Does AI Guarantee Great Films? D Permanent lunar habitation will be one of the most difficult things mankind has ever done, and it poses several immediate questions. For a start, where on the Moon would such a settlement be? Not everywhere on our friendly satellite is equal when it comes to settling there. Thanks to its orbital path, the Moon has a long day-night cycle, with each day or night lasting more than two weeks on Earth. This means that the most likely place for human settlements is near one of the poles, where light is all but permanent, and the variations between temperature extremes are much less severe than in equatorial (赤道) regions. There are also thought to be significant water reserves at the poles. Two specific sites often mentioned are Mount Malapert, near the south pole, and the rim of the Peary Crater, near the north. Experts say that Mount Malapert is probably filled with hydrogen and helium deposits. There’s a broad, smooth landing area, clearly in continuous microwave visibility of Earth (for tracking and communications). And, not far away, are permanently shaded areas to the south, which could be easily reached by a vehicle driven down the south slope of the mountain. But if that doesn’t appeal, advantages of the rim of the Peary Crater include its large, flat landscape, surrounded by four mountainous regions on the rim, which stay bright all lunar day. This light source means a relatively stable temperature and solar power. Having chosen the location, accommodation would also likely take one of two forms: below the surface in underground lava tubes, or on the surface in biodomes (生物圈). Underground has the advantage of greater protection from meteorite strikes and from solar radiation, which is around 200 times more powerful on the Moon than on Earth. But overground offers easier access and transport, not to mention the mental thrill of being “outside”. A mixture of the two is most likely. Lunar buildings could be created with 3D-printing technology, using moon dust as the primary construction material. Like any Earth city, settlements would need supplies of energy and food — so where would they be found? 12. What does “this” in paragraph 3 refer to? A. The Moon’s long day-night cycle. B. The Moon’s path around the Earth. C. Nearly permanent sunlight at the poles. D. Small difference between temperature extremes. 13. What is the unique advantage of the rim of the Peary Crater for lunar settlement? A. Vast water resources. B. Large, flat landing area. C. Consistent light source. D. Mountainous landscapes. 14. What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A. What an ideal lunar accommodation is like. B. What is a must for an ideal lunar accommodation. C What technology is needed for lunar accommodation. D. What the next focus of an ideal lunar accommodation is. 15. What is the author’s attitude to the permanent lunar habitation? A. Neutral about its prospects. B. Concerned about the risks involved. C. Doubtful about its possibility. D. Positive about the potential and benefits. 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Campus loan generally refers to a private loan given to a college student on the campus. Internet lenders, most of whom are loan sharks (高利贷者), offer such loans to students who need the money to meet their college and other expenses. ____16____ But these loans come with high interest and often with collateral security (抵押担保), which has included naked photographs of female students. Not being mature enough to read the trap attached to such loans, many students have fallen prey to the loan sharks. ____17____ In that case, college students should first learn to recognize the dangers.

To begin with, before applying for a loan, the students should carefully compare the financial service information and the extra fees different internet lenders charge on loans. ____19____ More important, they should analyze the actual interest and the fine for not paying the interest on time, and properly keep the loan certificate. Also, when the students are threatened with physical violence to repay the loan, they should record the conversation and report it to the police in time. ____20____ Moreover, the students should learn to protect their privacy. And they should avoid the misuse of their personal information by other people to avoid getting involved in financial crimes. A. Campus loan is in essence a private loan. B. Campus loans come with many, hidden legal risks. C. Some internet lenders even promote so-called job-hunting loan. D. Besides, some internet lenders use loan tricks to cheat the students. E.

The produce from their garden was sold at market. This was how they made their living. Ally’s job was to make sure the plants were never too dry. Each day Ally carefully watered any plant that needed water. Ally helped take care of the garden in other ways, too, so the vegetables would be healthy and ready for the market. Ally often pretended the plants were beautiful roses, like Mrs. Smith’s prize flowers. “Foolish girl!” her mother spoke angrily. “Flowers can’t be eaten!” “But Mother, people buy flowers.” “No one in our poor village wastes money so foolishly. Look after the vegetables. That’s our living.” Ally knew her mother was right. The only person in the village who made money selling flowers was Mrs. Smith. She grew roses and sold them to flower shops in Austin. Every year she won first prize at the Austin Rose Festival. Ally envied Mrs. Smith. If she could sell flowers like Mrs. Smith, she would be able to buy things for her mother. But roses were expensive to start, and Ally could only dream about growing them. One day, Ally visited Mrs. Smith to see her flowers again. Mrs. Smith was inspecting her roses when she arrived. The garden of flowers springing up thrilled Ally. How she wished she could grow such flowers! And even win a prize at the festival! Mrs. Smith broke her daydream. “Child, come to see the flowers again? Do you know what’s required to grow such flowers?” She chuckled. “Stick to your vegetables.” Mrs. Smith returned to her gardening, ignoring the sad look on Ally’s face. Then she pulled up what looked like a weed (野草). “What’s that?” Ally asked. “A weak plant. Unworthy of my time.” Mrs. Smith said before throwing it over the fence into the field beside the garden. 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。 Paragraph 1: Ally smiled and had an idea. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: On festival morning, Ally went to greet her own little plant as usual. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力答案：1-5 CBACB 6-10 BCBBB 11-15 ACCAB 16-20 CCCCA 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 高二英语 本试卷共10页。满分150分。考试用时120分钟。考试结束后，将答题卡交回。 注意事项： 1. 答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、座号、考生号等填写在答题卡上。 2. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 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。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.

The world knew very little about the species at the time. Over the course of six decades, her groundbreaking research has transformed the way we see human relationships with chimpanzees and has showed us an entirely new method for wildlife research. Goodall’s research was revolutionary because she integrated herself within the wild chimpanzee communities to learn about their social and familial interactions. She named each animal and formed close bonds with them, learning how very similar they were to us. “Their behavior, with their gestures, kissing, embracing, holding hands,” she said of what she learned about chimpanzees in her research. “In fact, they can use and make tools, the fact they can be violent and can have a kind of war — but they are also loving and selfless.” Goodall said even after all this time, there is still so much to learn from them. “It’s like if you’re watching a group of people. New ideas crop up. New behaviors start. That means an evolving culture.” In addition to her research, she has been a tireless advocate for conservation and animal rights and has been an outspoken climate change activist. She says the coronavirus pandemic has shown us how humans are affecting our global ecosystem. “We brought this pandemic to a large extent on ourselves — we have disrespected the natural world and animals, and we’ve been cutting down forests. Animals are being driven in closer contact with people.” she said. “This creates a fantastic environment where animal-to-human disease can be transmitted.” She warns while we’ve made it through COVID-19, climate change, another result of humans “disrespecting” the earth, will be a tougher opponent. However, she remains hopeful. She urges global collective action and a renewed commitment, which, she believes, can help turn the tide. “It’s cooperation that we need if we’re going to reverse climate change and loss of biodiversity.” she said. 4. What was Goodall’s new method for chimpanzee research? A. Analyzing experimental data. B. Observing and recording their behavior. C. Living among them in the wild. D. Grouping them and making comparisons. 5. What is the groundbreaking finding of Goodall? A. Chimpanzees are endangered species. B. Chimpanzees are ancestors of humans. C. Chimpanzees have their own language. D. Chimpanzees have complex social systems. 6. Why did Goodall mention COVID-19? A. To stress the need of global cooperation. B. To highlight the value of pandemic prevention. C. To show the consequences of disrespecting nature. D. To reveal the impact of COVID-19 on global health. 7. In which column of a magazine is this text most likely to appear? A. Pioneer. B. Opinion. C. Wildlife. D. Lifestyle. 【答案】4. C 5. D 6. C 7. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了古道尔对黑猩猩所作研究的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Goodall’s research was revolutionary because she integrated herself within the wild chimpanzee communities to learn about their social and familial interactions.”（古道尔的研究是革命性的，因为她将自己融入了野生黑猩猩群体，以了解它们的社会和家庭互动。）可知，古道尔研究黑猩猩的方法是和他们一起住在野外。故选C项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“In fact, they can use and make tools, the fact they can be violent and can have a kind of war — but they are also loving and selfless.”（事实上，他们可以使用和制造工具，他们可以很暴力，可以有一种战争，但他们也是有爱心和无私的。）可知，古道尔突破性的发现是黑猩猩有复杂的社会关系。故选D项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段“She warns while we’ve made it through COVID-19, climate change, another result of humans ‘disrespecting’ the earth, will be a tougher opponent.”（她警告说，虽然我们已经度过了COVID-19，但气候变化——人类‘不尊重’地球另一个结果——将是一个更强硬的对手。）可知，古道尔提到COVID-19的原因是为了展示不尊重自然的后果。故选C项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Over the course of six decades, her groundbreaking research has transformed the way we see human relationships with chimpanzees and has showed us an entirely new method for wildlife research.”（在过去的60年里，她开创性的研究改变了我们看待人类与黑猩猩关系的方式，并向我们展示了一种全新的野生动物研究方法。）可知，古道尔是一名研究黑猩猩的先锋人物，推断出这篇文章最有可能出现在杂志的先锋栏目中。故选A项。 C When you watch a great film, there’s always a great mix of everything you enjoy: Explosions! Exotic (异国的) locations! Amazing stunts (特技)! And all of it anchored by famous A-list actors. However, all that could soon be changed. Hollywood was rocked recently by an AI program called Sora. All you need to do is type in a description of what you want to watch, and it creates a video up to one minute long. This is possible because the programme has been fed thousands of hours of existing videos, searched through them for patterns, and then used this learning to create new content. As it develops, this technology could allow filmmakers to greatly expand their creativity. Simply give the computer program a script (脚本), tell it what actors you want, and it will create a movie for you. This will make it much cheaper to make films. AI might even help to create films tailored to personal tastes by analyzing viewing history and making a custom movie. Amazing developments in AI could fuel a new era of filmmaking. However, there are concerns. Many argue that AI can’t be truly creative, as humans are. AI expert Bernard Marr writes, “No matter how impressive a piece of computer-created artwork might be, it’s always built from blocks carved out of the data that’s used to train it.” AI actors could lead to a flood of poor quality, cheap films. As AI films copy and remix data from each other, researchers warn that this could lead to a “downward spiral”, where films become more similar and more boring over time. “Human emotion must always come first,” says Avatar director James Cameron. AI actors may never recreate the complexity of emotions that humans can. They will probably stay trapped in the “uncanny valley” — the uncomfortable feeling we get when we see something that’s almost — but not quite — human. 8. Why is Sora mentioned in the text? A. To explain the principles of AI filmmaking. B. To highlight AI’s impact on filmmakers’ creativity. C. To show how AI can change traditional filmmaking. D. To introduce an AI program for creating custom films. 9. What is a possible concern about AI films? A. They may cause copyright issues. B. They may be much like each other. C. They may change the way humans enjoy films. D. They may not be as impressive as human-made films. 10. How do people typically feel about AI actors imitating human emotions? A. Awkward. B. Confused. C. Frightened. D. Shocked. 11. What is the best title of the text? A. Sora Is Shaking Hollywood B. Create Your Films with Sora C. Should AI Replace Real Actors? D. Does AI Guarantee Great Films? 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要探讨了人工智能在电影制作中的应用、潜力和挑战，以及人类情感在电影中的不可替代性。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“All you need to do is type in a description of what you want to watch, and it creates a video up to one minute long. This is possible because the programme has been fed thousands of hours of existing videos, searched through them for patterns, and then used this learning to create new content.(你所需要做的就是输入你想看的内容的描述，它就会创建一个长达一分钟的视频。这是可能的，因为该程序已经输入了数千小时的现有视频，在其中搜索模式，然后利用这种学习来创建新内容。)”可知，提到Sora的目的是展示人工智能如何改变传统的电影制作。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“As AI films copy and remix data from each other, researchers warn that this could lead to a “downward spiral”, where films become more similar and more boring over time.(研究人员警告说，随着人工智能电影相互复制和混合数据，这可能会导致“恶性循环”，随着时间的推移，电影变得越来越相似，越来越无聊。)”可知，人们对人工智能电影的担忧是它们可能非常相似。故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“AI actors may never recreate the complexity of emotions that humans can. They will probably stay trapped in the “uncanny valley” — the uncomfortable feeling we get when we see something that’s almost — but not quite — human.(人工智能演员可能永远无法重现人类所能重现的复杂情感。他们可能会一直被困在“神秘谷”中——当我们看到一些几乎但不完全是人类的东西时，我们会感到不舒服。)”可知，人们通常对人工智能演员模仿人类情绪的感觉是感到尴尬，故选A。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段“Simply give the computer program a script (脚本), tell it what actors you want, and it will create a movie for you. This will make it much cheaper to make films. AI might even help to create films tailored to personal tastes by analyzing viewing history and making a custom movie.(只要给电脑程序一个剧本，告诉它你想要的演员，它就会为你制作一部电影。这将大大降低制作电影的成本。人工智能甚至可以通过分析观看历史和制作定制电影来帮助制作适合个人口味的电影。)”，倒数第二段“AI actors could lead to a flood of poor quality, cheap films.(人工智能演员可能会导致大量劣质廉价电影的出现。)”和最后一段“AI actors may never recreate the complexity of emotions that humans can.(人工智能演员可能永远无法重现人类所能重现的复杂情感。)”可知，本文主要探讨了人工智能在电影制作中的应用、潜力和挑战，以及人类情感在电影中的不可替代性，因此最好的题目是C选项“Should AI Replace Real Actors?(人工智能应该取代真人演员吗？)”。故选C。 D Permanent lunar habitation will be one of the most difficult things mankind has ever done, and it poses several immediate questions. For a start, where on the Moon would such a settlement be? Not everywhere on our friendly satellite is equal when it comes to settling there. Thanks to its orbital path, the Moon has a long day-night cycle, with each day or night lasting more than two weeks on Earth. This means that the most likely place for human settlements is near one of the poles, where light is all but permanent, and the variations between temperature extremes are much less severe than in equatorial (赤道) regions. There are also thought to be significant water reserves at the poles. Two specific sites often mentioned are Mount Malapert, near the south pole, and the rim of the Peary Crater, near the north. Experts say that Mount Malapert is probably filled with hydrogen and helium deposits. There’s a broad, smooth landing area, clearly in continuous microwave visibility of Earth (for tracking and communications). And, not far away, are permanently shaded areas to the south, which could be easily reached by a vehicle driven down the south slope of the mountain. But if that doesn’t appeal, advantages of the rim of the Peary Crater include its large, flat landscape, surrounded by four mountainous regions on the rim, which stay bright all lunar day. This light source means a relatively stable temperature and solar power. Having chosen the location, accommodation would also likely take one of two forms: below the surface in underground lava tubes, or on the surface in biodomes (生物圈). Underground has the advantage of greater protection from meteorite strikes and from solar radiation, which is around 200 times more powerful on the Moon than on Earth. But overground offers easier access and transport, not to mention the mental thrill of being “outside”. A mixture of the two is most likely. Lunar buildings could be created with 3D-printing technology, using moon dust as the primary construction material. Like any Earth city, settlements would need supplies of energy and food — so where would they be found? 12. What does “this” in paragraph 3 refer to? A. The Moon’s long day-night cycle. B. The Moon’s path around the Earth. C. Nearly permanent sunlight at the poles. D. Small difference between temperature extremes. 13. What is the unique advantage of the rim of the Peary Crater for lunar settlement? A. Vast water resources. B. Large, flat landing area. C. Consistent light source. D. Mountainous landscapes. 14. What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A. What an ideal lunar accommodation is like. B. What is a must for an ideal lunar accommodation. C. What technology is needed for lunar accommodation. D. What the next focus of an ideal lunar accommodation is. 15. What is the author’s attitude to the permanent lunar habitation? A. Neutral about its prospects. B. Concerned about the risks involved. C. Doubtful about its possibility. D. Positive about the potential and benefits. 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. A 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讨论了在月球上永久定居所面临的挑战以及可能的解决方案。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段“Thanks to its orbital path, the Moon has a long day-night cycle, with each day or night lasting more than two weeks on Earth.(由于它的轨道路径，月球有一个漫长的昼夜周期，在地球上的每一天或每一夜持续两周以上。)”和第三段“This means that the most likely place for human settlements is near one of the poles, where light is all but permanent, and the variations between temperature extremes are much less severe than in equatorial (赤道) regions.(这意味着人类最可能定居的地方是靠近两极的地方，那里的光线几乎是永久的，极端温度之间的变化远没有赤道地区严重。)”可知，第3段中的“this”指的是月球漫长的昼夜循环。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“But if that doesn’t appeal, advantages of the rim of the Peary Crater include its large, flat landscape, surrounded by four mountainous regions on the rim, which stay bright all lunar day.(但如果这些都不吸引人，Peary Crater边缘的优势包括它广阔而平坦的景观，四周环绕着四个山区，在月球上全天都是明亮的。)”可知，Peary Crater边缘在作为月球上定居点的独特优势是恒定的光源，故选C。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Having chosen the location, accommodation would also likely take one of two forms: below the surface in underground lava tubes, or on the surface in biodomes (生物圈).(在选择了地点之后，住处也可能采取两种形式中的一种：在地下熔岩管中，或者在地表的生物圈中。)”可知，最后一段的主旨是理想的月球住处是什么样的。故选A。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“For a start, where on the Moon would such a settlement be?(首先，这样的定居点在月球的什么地方？)”、第三段中“This means that the most likely place for human settlements is near one of the poles(这意味着人类最可能定居的地方是靠近两极的地方)”以及最后一段中“Having chosen the location, accommodation would also likely take one of two forms: below the surface in underground lava tubes, or on the surface in biodomes (生物圈).(在选择了地点之后，住处也可能采取两种形式中的一种：在地下熔岩管中，或者在地表的生物圈中。)”和“Like any Earth city, settlements would need supplies of energy and food — so where would they be found?(像任何地球城市一样，定居点也需要能源和食物的供应——那么在哪里可以找到它们呢？)”可知，作者对于在月球上永久定居所面临的困难以及解决方案进行了客观分析，故作者对在月球上永久定居的前景持中立态度。故选A。 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Campus loan generally refers to a private loan given to a college student on the campus. Internet lenders, most of whom are loan sharks (高利贷者), offer such loans to students who need the money to meet their college and other expenses. ____16____ But these loans come with high interest and often with collateral security (抵押担保), which has included naked photographs of female students. Not being mature enough to read the trap attached to such loans, many students have fallen prey to the loan sharks. ____17____ In that case, college students should first learn to recognize the dangers. They should realize that by applying for an “internet loan”, they themselves are leaking their personal information, including their national ID and student ID card numbers and bank details. ____18____ For example, they may trick them into signing a contract (合同) for a huge loan, but lending them only a small amount. In order to avoid the dangers, the students should limit their consumption to what they really need, increase their financial knowledge and learn how to protect themselves using legal means. To begin with, before applying for a loan, the students should carefully compare the financial service information and the extra fees different internet lenders charge on loans. ____19____ More important, they should analyze the actual interest and the fine for not paying the interest on time, and properly keep the loan certificate. Also, when the students are threatened with physical violence to repay the loan, they should record the conversation and report it to the police in time. ____20____ Moreover, the students should learn to protect their privacy. And they should avoid the misuse of their personal information by other people to avoid getting involved in financial crimes. A. Campus loan is in essence a private loan. B. Campus loans come with many, hidden legal risks. C. Some internet lenders even promote so-called job-hunting loan. D. Besides, some internet lenders use loan tricks to cheat the students. E. These loans are popular due to their easy application and approval. F. This way, those issuing such threats can be held responsible for their actions. G.

Authenticity matters greatly in professional settings. An original photo reflects honesty and qualities that employers value when they assess candidates. An edited photo, while it may make you look better, runs the risk of misleading employers. They might get the wrong idea or even judge you unfairly based on your looks. So, it’s a better choice to use an original photo, which can keep people focused on what you can do professionally. Our qualifications speak louder than any digital touch-up. 范例2： Regarding the topic of “Original Photo or Edited Photo for Resume” I prefer an edited photo for a resume. An edited photo allows us to present our best selves, enhancing our professional image. Minor adjustments, such as improving lighting or background, can make a significant difference without altering one’s true appearance. In a competitive job market, first impressions are crucial, and a polished photo can convey professionalism and attention to detail. However, it’s important to avoid over-editing, ensuring the photo remains a true representation of oneself. Striking this balance can help candidates make a positive impact on potential employers. 范例3： Regarding the topic of “Original Photo or Edited Photo for Resume”, I prefer using edited photos in resumes. Carefully edited photos can enhance your appearance and showcase your attention to detail, potentially giving recruiters a more favorable first impression and improving your chances of securing an interview. However, it’s crucial to strike the right balance — excessive editing can make the photo seem inauthentic, which may raise doubts about your integrity. If you’re unsure about the appropriate level of editing, it’s best to consult a professional to avoid any issues. Ultimately, thoughtfully edited photos can be an asset, but you must ensure they remain genuine representations. 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达属于议论文，要求考生写一篇短文，发表对于“Original Photo or Edited Photo for Resume (简历)?”的观点。 【详解】1.词汇积累 反映：reflect→mirror 评估：assess→evaluate 选择：choice→option 集中于：focus on→concentrate on 2.句式拓展 简单句变复合句 原句：Our qualifications speak louder than any digital touch-up. 拓展句：Our qualifications are what speak louder than any digital touch-up. 【点睛】[高分句型1] An original photo reflects honesty and qualities that employers value when they assess candidates.

The produce from their garden was sold at market. This was how they made their living. Ally’s job was to make sure the plants were never too dry. Each day Ally carefully watered any plant that needed water. Ally helped take care of the garden in other ways, too, so the vegetables would be healthy and ready for the market. Ally often pretended the plants were beautiful roses, like Mrs. Smith’s prize flowers. “Foolish girl!” her mother spoke angrily. “Flowers can’t be eaten!” “But Mother, people buy flowers.” “No one in our poor village wastes money so foolishly. Look after the vegetables. That’s our living.” Ally knew her mother was right. The only person in the village who made money selling flowers was Mrs. Smith. She grew roses and sold them to flower shops in Austin. Every year she won first prize at the Austin Rose Festival. Ally envied Mrs. Smith. If she could sell flowers like Mrs. Smith, she would be able to buy things for her mother. But roses were expensive to start, and Ally could only dream about growing them. One day, Ally visited Mrs. Smith to see her flowers again. Mrs. Smith was inspecting her roses when she arrived. The garden of flowers springing up thrilled Ally. How she wished she could grow such flowers! And even win a prize at the festival! Mrs. Smith broke her daydream. “Child, come to see the flowers again? Do you know what’s required to grow such flowers?” She chuckled. “Stick to your vegetables.” Mrs. Smith returned to her gardening, ignoring the sad look on Ally’s face. Then she pulled up what looked like a weed (野草). “What’s that?” Ally asked. “A weak plant. Unworthy of my time.” Mrs. Smith said before throwing it over the fence into the field beside the garden. 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。 Paragraph 1: Ally smiled and had an idea. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: On festival morning, Ally went to greet her own little plant as usual. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范例1： Ally smiled and had an idea. She rushed over to the field and carefully picked up the discarded plant. It was delicate, with tiny roots that seemed like they might not survive. Ally took the plant home and found a small, sunny spot in the garden where it wouldn’t be disturbed. She planted it there, promising herself to give it the best care she could. Each day, after watering the vegetables, she tended to her little plant, talking to it and dreaming about what it could become. With time, the plant began to grow stronger, and Ally’s hopes grew with it. On festival morning, Ally went to greet her own little plant as usual. She was astonished to find it had bloomed into a beautiful rose. So excited she was that she decided to invite Mrs. Smith to have a look. Mrs Smith was just about to leave for the contest. At the sight of beautiful rose, her eyes widened in surprise. “Where did you get that rose?” Mrs. Smith asked. Ally proudly explained how she had nurtured the discarded plant. Mrs. Smith smiled warmly, saying, “You are a great gardener. Perhaps next year, you can grow your own roses and enter the festival.” Ally’s heart swelled with pride and joy. She knew she was one step closer to making her dreams come true and providing a better life for her mother. 范例2： Ally smiled and had an idea. She looked at the discarded plant Mrs. Smith had thrown away. Maybe this wasn’t a weed at all. With a spark in her eye, Ally carefully retrieved the plant and brought it back to her own garden. She nurtured it with great love and care, watering it daily and ensuring it got plenty of sunlight. As the days passed, the plant began to bloom, revealing its true identity: a beautiful red rose plant with buds! On festival morning, Ally went to greet her own little plant as usual. She was amazed to see a stunning cluster of roses in bloom. Her heart was filled with joy as she took it to Mrs. Smith. Mrs. Smith got stunned at the wonderful roses and offered to take Ally to the festival. To Ally’s surprise, she won the first prize! She had grown her own roses! Flowers could indeed be a valuable addition to their livelihood, even for a poor village girl like her. 范例3： Ally smiled and has an idea. After saying goodbye to Mrs. Smith, she went out of the garden gate. Ally bent over, took the tired plant and rushed home. She transplanted it at a quiet spot behind their cottage, which was secret and a perfect place for it to grow. She tendered it every morning and evening, watering and even talking to it. To her pleasure, each time Ally visited her little plant, it looked greener and taller. On festival morning, Ally went to greet her own little plant as usual. At the sight of her little flower, she slammed to a stop, and almost tripped her own feet. It was in full blossom, dwarfing Mrs. Smith’s grandest flowers! Ally screamed with delight. Hearing that, her mother came rushing to see what had happened and gasped at its beauty as well. Ally persuaded her mother to take the flower to the festival. To her great joy, her plant won the first prize! The prize money Ally won was used to buy the starter plants for her garden. She knew that devotion is the secret to realizing dreams. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Ally和她母亲在菜园里辛勤劳作，通过出售农产品来维持生计，然而，Ally对史密斯太太种植的玫瑰产生了浓厚的兴趣和羡慕，她梦想着能够像史密斯太太那样种植并出售玫瑰，通过与史密斯太太的互动，Ally看到了种植玫瑰所需的辛勤和专注，史密斯太太以幽默的方式提醒Ally，无论是种植蔬菜还是玫瑰，都需要付出努力和耐心，后来史密斯太太拔掉了一株看似无用的植物，这启发了Ally的行动。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“Ally笑了笑，有了一个主意。”可知，第一段可描写Ally对史密斯太太丢弃的那株脆弱植物产生了新的想法和行动。 ②由第二段首句内容“在节日的早晨，Ally像往常一样去看望她自己的小植物。”可知，第二段可描写Ally在节日的早晨发现她细心照料的小植物已经开成了一朵美丽的玫瑰，并因此产生的激动心情以及她与史密斯太太之间的互动。 2.续写线索：捡起植物——带回家种下——照料植物——植物生长——发现植物开花——邀请史密斯太太来看花——史密斯太太惊讶——Ally解释——Ally感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①种植：plant/cultivate ②照顾：tend to/take care of ③开花：bloom/blossom 情绪类 ①惊讶：astonished/shocked ②兴奋：excited/thrilled 【点睛】[高分句型1] Ally took the plant home and found a small, sunny spot in the garden where it wouldn’t be disturbed.
