You can have up to 200, 000 people in a single group! (这个应用程序的一个受欢迎的功能是分组。你可以有多达20万人在一个单一的组!)”可知，Telescope的特点是群组通话。故选A。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据题干Text部分的“To make phone calls to non-users, like land line phones. You need to buy or earn redeem able(可兑换的) credits. ( 给非用户打电话，比如固定电话。你需要购买或赚取可兑换的积分。)”可知，Text允许用户赚取积分。故选D。 B In Cedars, Pennsylvania, a cafe is giving disabled people with different abilities and their families a safe and inclusive space to shine. Created in 2022, the cafe was a response to the need in the community for programs that would enable youth with special needs to develop social and professional skills in a safe environment. The cafe was the idea of Pennsylvania mom Maureen Stanko, a teacher, fitness instructor, and musician, who was concerned about her son Nick, who has autism (孤独症) and food allergies, and what he would be able to do after graduation. In Pennsylvania, students with disabilities can stay in school until age 22, but worrying about Nick’s future is what keeps Stanko up at night. Stanko was so worried that she spoke to Nick’s therapist, Tyler Kammerle, who had dreamed about opening a restaurant to employ people with disabilities. The two worked together to make this a reality. Two years later, the So Much To Give Inclusive Cafe was born. It employed 63 people and 80 percent of them have some form of disability. The cafe is more than just a space to work; it’s also a place for people with disabilities and their families to dine. “We’d never even taken Nick to a restaurant before because we wouldn’t spend all this money to eat out to be completely stressed out,” Stanko said. “This cafe has taught Nick how to sit in a restaurant. And now we have a place to go, where if he stands up and starts hopping or clapping, nobody cares.” The inclusive cafe has made a real difference in people’s lives. One of the staff, Lauren Oppelts, who is hearing impaired, said, “If you told me two years ago that I would be a server, I wouldn’t believe you. But now I have gained so much self-confidence. A lot of employees here have changed so much; it’s just mind-blowing.” 4. Why did Stanko and Tyler Kammerle establish the cafe? A. To serve people with various abilities. B. To provide a place for family occasions. C. To instruct graduates in professional skills. D. To offer employment to youth with special needs. 5. What was Stanko’s concern about taking Nick to a restaurant? A. The cost of dining out. B. The noisy customers in restaurants. C. The lack of an inclusive environment. D. The food allergies Nick is suffering from. 6. How has working at the cafe affected Lauren Oppelts? A. She has taken to socializing. B. She has grown more positive. C. She has become experienced in cooking. D. She has recovered from her hearing disability. 7. Which of the following best describes Stanko? A. Caring and responsible. B. Ambitious and devoted. C. Determined and sensitive. D. Tough and reliable. 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. B 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了在宾夕法尼亚州Cedars开设的一家名为“So Much To Give Inclusive Cafe”的咖啡馆，该咖啡馆旨在为具有不同能力和特殊情况的人群及其家庭提供一个包容和支持的空间，帮助他们发展社交和职业技能。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据首段中的“Created in 2022, the cafe was a response to the need in the community for programs that would enable youth with special needs to develop social and professional skills in a safe environment. (该咖啡馆创建于2022年，是对社区项目需求的回应，该项目将使有特殊需求的年轻人在安全的环境中发展社会和专业技能。)”可知，该咖啡馆将使有特殊需求的年轻人在安全的环境中发展社会和专业技能，由此可知，建立该咖啡馆是为有特殊需要的青年提供就业机会。故选D项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的““We’d never even taken Nick to a restaurant before because we wouldn’t spend all this money to eat out to be completely stressed out,” Stanko said. “This cafe has taught Nick how to sit in a restaurant. And now we have a place to go, where if he stands up and starts hopping or clapping, nobody cares.” (Stanko 说：“我们以前甚至从来没有带Nick 去过餐馆，因为我们不会花这么多钱去外面吃饭，让自己完全感到压力。”“这家咖啡馆教会了Nick 如何在餐馆里就座。现在我们有一个地方可以去，如果他站起来开始跳或鼓掌，没有人会在意。”)”可知，Stanko不带Nick去餐馆是因为不愿意让自己完全感受到压力，而在这家咖啡馆里，Nick要是跳或者鼓掌，没有人会在意，由此可推断，Stanko带Nick去餐馆是担心餐馆缺乏包容的环境。故选C项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据尾段中的“One of the staff, Lauren Oppelts, who is hearing impaired, said, “If you told me two years ago that I would be a server, I wouldn’t believe you. But now I have gained so much self-confidence. A lot of employees here have changed so much; it’s just mind-blowing.” (其中一名员工劳伦·奥佩尔茨（Lauren Oppelts）有听力障碍，她说：“如果两年前你告诉我，我会成为一名服务员，我不会相信你。但是现在我获得了如此多的自信。这里的很多员工都发生了很大的变化；这真是令人兴奋。”)”可知，Lauren Oppelts认为自己现在获得了如此多的自信，由此可知，这家咖啡馆使得Lauren Oppelts变得更加积极向上。故选B项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“In Pennsylvania, students with disabilities can stay in school until age 22, but worrying about Nick’s future is what keeps Stanko up at night. (在宾夕法尼亚州，残疾学生可以在学校学习到22岁，但担心Nick的未来是Stanko 夜不能寐的原因。)”可知，Stanko为自己的儿子未来担心，这使得她夜不能寐，结合第三段中的“Stanko was so worried that she spoke to Nick’s therapist, Tyler Kammerle, who had dreamed about opening a restaurant to employ people with disabilities. The two worked together to make this a reality. (斯坦科非常担心，于是她和尼克的治疗师泰勒·卡默勒(Tyler Kammerle)谈了谈，后者一直梦想着开一家餐馆，雇佣残疾人。两人共同努力使这成为现实。)”可知，Stanko咨询了Nick的治疗师后，他的治疗师想要开一家咖啡馆，雇佣残疾人，两人共同开设了一家咖啡馆，综合以上信息可知，Stanko是一个有爱心有责任心的人。故选A项。 C An artificial intelligence (AI) tool of street view could be used to predict the risk of coronary heart disease — a condition where the heart’s arteries (动脉) are blocked, limiting blood flow to the heart by analysing neighbourhood environments, according to research. A study, published in the European Heart Journal, monitored everyday surroundings, including the quality of roads, buildings, and green spaces, and the role they play in determining heart health. Researchers were able to track the link between these environmental elements, including the presence or absence of pollution, and the risk of coronary heart disease. They found that these neighbourhood characteristics could account for 63% of the differences in heart disease risk from one community to another. The discovery stems from analysing more than half a million AI street view images across US cities, using computer vision to identify and interpret details that might go unnoticed by the human eye. The data provides urban planners and public health officials with information to design healthier living spaces and neighbourhoods. “Undoubtedly, there is a vast amount of social, economic and environmental data set,” said one of the study's authors, Prof Sanjay Rajagopalan. “However, there still remain significant gap s in our knowledge regarding unique environmental aspects of data that are currently beyond human comprehension. This is where the use of computer vision approaches may enable unique understanding of the physical and built environment.” By employing AI, researchers have been able to examine the details of neighbourhoods’ environment. The study employed computer vision technology, including applications used in medical imaging and autonomous driving, to identify details and then interpret them to make predictions or decisions. “We are getting to a place in human civilization where traditional approaches that have been used are rather limited and the use of AI to enhance human understanding is going to be critically important at solving complex problems,” Prof Rajagopalan said. 8. What is the finding of the study? A. How people can prevent heart diseases. B. How environments affect heart health. C. How AI can reduce heart disease risks. D. How the heart's arteries are blocked. 9. What can the finding of the study help to do? A. Promote computer technology. B. Reduce air and water pollution. C. Design green neighbourhoods. D. Advertise for an AI company. 10. Why was computer vision used in the study? A. The researchers had no environmental data. B. It had solved some environmental problems. C. People ignored the environment they live in. D. It helped people understand the environment. 11. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. The development of AI for hospitals B. The medical use of a street view tool C. The insight into healthy neighbourhoods D. The link between the heart and environment 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了利用人工智能街景工具分析社区环境，预测冠心病风险的研究，揭示了环境因素对心脏病风险的影响，并强调AI在解决复杂问题中的重要作用。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“Researchers were able to track the link between these environmental elements, including the presence or absence of pollution, and the risk of coronary heart disease. (研究人员能够追踪这些环境因素（包括是否存在污染）与冠心病风险之间的联系。)”可知，该研究能够发现环境因素，如道路、建筑、绿地等的质量以及污染的存在与否，是如何影响心脏健康的，即环境如何影响心脏健康。故选B项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“The data provides urban planners and public health officials with information to design healthier living spaces and neighbourhoods. (这些数据为城市规划者和公共卫生官员提供了设计更健康的生活空间和社区的信息。)”可知，研究发现的数据可以帮助创建更多绿色和健康的社区环境。故选C项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段中的“This is where the use of computer vision approaches may enable unique understanding of the physical and built environment. (这就是使用计算机视觉方法可以对物理和建筑环境进行独特理解的地方。)”可知，计算机视觉方法的使用可以使人们对物理环境和建筑环境有独特的理解。故选D项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段中的“An artificial intelligence (AI) tool of street view could be used to predict the risk of coronary heart disease—a condition where the heart’s arteries (动脉) are blocked, limiting blood flow to the heart by analysing neighbourhood environments, according to research. (根据研究，街道视图的人工智能（AI）工具可用于预测冠心病的风险，冠心病是一种心脏动脉阻塞的疾病，通过分析邻近环境来限制流向心脏的血流。)”可知，文章主要讲述了利用街景人工智能工具预测冠心病风险的研究，并强调了这种工具在医学上的应用。故选B项。 D Forests have been embraced as a natural climate solution, due to their ability to soak up carbon dioxide from the atmosphere as they grow, locking it up in their trunks, branches, leaves, and roots. But a new study confirms widespread doubts about the potential for most forests in the Western US to help control climate change. Published in Earth’s Future, the paper analyzed trends in carbon storage across the American West from 2005 to 2019. Led by Jazlynn Hall, a forest and landscape ecologist at Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies, the team found that throughout most of the region, climate change and fires may be causing forests to store less carbon, not more. “There’s a growing trend to use forests as natural climate solutions,” said Hall. “Many climate mitigation (减轻) pathways rely in part on additional forest carbon storage to keep warming below 1.5℃ this century. We wanted to provide a baseline for how much carbon is currently stored in Western forests, how it’s changing, and how disturbances like fire and drought pose a threat to climate mitigation targets.” The authors warn that many Western forests could see a rapid acceleration of carbon loss in the coming years or decades. “These challenges have the potential to compromise carbon storage capacity and weaken our ability to mitigate climate change, Hah cautions. By providing a fire-new view of threats at landscape and regional levels, Hall and colleagues provide a framework (框架) that could help forest managers adapt site-specific strategies to strengthen forest resilience (复原力). They also identify the remaining areas with the lowest risk and highest potential to store carbon, such as the Pacific Northwest. “Our study develops new methods to carefully estimate forest-carbon storage at a regional level, track it over time, and find out the causes of changes over time,” said Hall. He expects the methods will be useful in monitoring carbon storage levels going forward, as well as assessing the carbon impacts of management efforts such as forest thinning and planned burning. 12. What does the underlined phrase “soak up” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Put down. B. Take in. C. Bring up. D. Give out. 13. Why was the study conducted? A. To find the best forests for carbon storage. B. To promote forests’ carbon storage capacity. C. To assess the current situation of forests. D. To measure the carbon released into forests. 14. What can we say about the future trend of Western forests? A. Carbon loss will speed up. B. They will become more resilient. C. They will store more carbon. D. They will have no impact on climate. 15. What is the primary function of Hall’s framework for forest management? A. Predicting future forest growth rates. B. Identifying high- risk areas for protection. C. Mapping all the forests in the Western US. D. Helping managers adapt strategies to forests. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. A 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是新闻报道。文章报道了一项新的科学研究，内容关于美国西部森林的碳储存能力及其与气候变化的关系。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据后文“locking it up in their trunks, branches, leaves, and roots.(并将其锁在树干、树枝、树叶和树根中。)”可推知，应是从大气中吸收二氧化碳，才能将其锁在树干、树枝、树叶和树根中，所以soak up应是“吸收”之意，和B项意思相近。故选B项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段““There’s a growing trend to use forests as natural climate solutions,” said Hall. “Many climate mitigation (减轻) pathways rely in part on additional forest carbon storage to keep warming below 1.5℃ this century. We wanted to provide a baseline for how much carbon is currently stored in Western forests, how it’s changing, and how disturbances like fire and drought pose a threat to climate mitigation targets.”(霍尔说：“利用森林作为自然气候解决方案的趋势越来越大。”“许多减缓气候变化的途径在一定程度上依赖于额外的森林碳储量，以将本世纪的气温保持在1.5℃以下。我们希望提供一个基线，了解目前西部森林中储存了多少碳，它是如何变化的，以及火灾和干旱等干扰如何对气候减缓目标构成威胁。”)”可知，进行这项研究是为了评估森林的现状。故选C项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“The authors warn that many Western forests could see a rapid acceleration of carbon loss in the coming years or decades.(作者警告说，在未来几年或几十年里，许多西部森林的碳损失可能会迅速加速。)”可知，西部森林的未来趋势是碳的流失将会加速。故选A项。 【15题详解】 细节理解题，根据倒数第二段“By providing a fire-new view of threats at landscape and regional levels, Hall and colleagues provide a framework (框架) that could help forest managers adapt site-specific strategies to strengthen forest resilience (复原力).(通过对景观和区域层面的威胁提供全新的看法，Hall及其同事提供了一个框架，可以帮助森林管理者适应特定地点的战略，以加强森林的恢复力。)”可知，霍尔森林管理框架的主要功能是帮助管理者调整战略以适应森林环境。故选D项。 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. I am often struck by the thought that there is this huge life enhancing potential available to everyone on the planet that maybe we don’t always take great advantage of. ___16___ Through it, we help ourselves and others by sharing the things we have learned. ___17___ I have been teaching and preaching from the time when it occurred to me that I had some really great stuff to share. But, strangely, it took me a long time to really identify what it was that I was doing, at least enough to put it into words. So, I’d like to share with you my thoughts on why teaching and sharing your knowledge can be so important to you as well as to the people around you. ___18___ See whether it profoundly enhanced so many parts of your life, even in the areas you’re already super successful in. Here is what makes teaching so great for the person doing the teaching. Any goal, habit, human quality, or desire that you start preaching, teaching, or pontificating about will automatically, and almost without effort, push you to do more of it yourself. ___19___ It pushes you to do what you are encouraging and teaching others to do. I am totally convinced this will, and does, work that way for everyone. What knowledge do you have, or have you learned that you want to be reminded and pushed to improve in your life? If you want to do better at it, there will be plenty of others that will want to do better at it too. ___20___ A. It’s our ability to teach other people. B. We just need to talk and teach others about it. C. Doing this has been changing and helping my life for years now. D. Please, think deeply about this and then put it into practice in any way you can. E. Be sure to write down your goals and objectives as well so you can stay on track. F. The knowledge you share, whether spoken or written, is like a truth drug for the mind. G. So, why not teach and share what you know and help yourself do better and better at these things? 【答案】16. A 17. C 18. D 19. F 20. G 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。文章讲述了分享知识，教授他人的益处，并提议大家学习分享教授自己的知识。 【16题详解】 根据前文“I am often struck by the thought that there is this huge life enhancing potential available to everyone on the planet that maybe we don’t always take great advantage of. (我经常被这样一个想法所震撼，这个星球上的每个人都有巨大的提升生命的潜力，也许我们并不总是能很好地利用它。)”和后文“Through it, we help ourselves and others by sharing the things we have learned. (通过它，我们通过分享我们所学到的东西来帮助自己和他人。)”可知，此处提到了一种巨大的潜力，下文提到巨大潜力的作用，因此推断空处解释这种潜力是什么。A项“它是我们教导他人的能力。”符合语境，指出这种潜力是我们教导他人的能力。通过这种能力我们可以分享我们所学到的东西，故选A。 【17题详解】 根据后文“I have been teaching and preaching from the time when it occurred to me that I had some really great stuff to share. But, strangely, it took me a long time to really identify what it was that I was doing, at least enough to put it into words. ( 我一直在教导和讲道，这时候我想到我有一些真正伟大的东西要分享的时候。但是，奇怪的是，我花了很长时间才真正确定我在做什么，至少足以用语言表达出来。)”可知，本段讲述作者运用这种能力影响他人以及自己获得感悟。因此推断C项“多年来，这样做一直在改变和帮助我的生活。”符合语境，说明这种能力对作者的生活产生了积极影响。故选C。 【18题详解】 根据前文“So, I’d like to share with you my thoughts on why teaching and sharing your knowledge can be so important to you as well as to the people around you. ( 所以，我想和你分享我的想法，为什么教学和分享你的知识对你和你周围的人都是如此重要。)”可知，此处讲述作者想分享为什么教学和分享知识对自己和他人都很重要，接下来应该是让读者思考并实践。D项“请深入思考这个问题，然后尽你所能地把它付诸实践”符合语境，呼应前文并引导读者思考和实践。承接下文“See whether it profoundly enhanced so many parts of your life, even in the areas you’re already super successful in. (看看它是否深刻地改善了你生活的许多方面，即使是在你已经非常成功的领域。)”故选D。 【19题详解】 根据前文“Any goal, habit, human quality, or desire that you start preaching, teaching, or pontificating about will automatically, and almost without effort, push you to do more of it yourself. (任何目标、习惯、人性或欲望，只要你开始说教、教导或自以为是，就会自动地、几乎毫不费力地推动你自己去做更多的事情。)”可知，这里提到教授会推动自己去做更多的事情，接下来应该是进一步解释这种推动力。F项“你分享的知识，无论是口头的还是书面的，都像一剂心灵的真理药。”符合语境，说明分享的知识对心灵的影响。故选F。 【20题详解】 根据前文“What knowledge do you have, or have you learned that you want to be reminded and pushed to improve in your life? If you want to do better at it, there will be plenty of others that will want to do better at it too. (你拥有什么知识，或者你学到了你想要被提醒和推动改进你的生活吗？?如果你想做得更好，就会有很多人也想做得更好。)”可知，这里提到如果你想在某方面做得更好，其他人也会有同样的愿望，接下来应该是鼓励读者去教导和分享。因此推断G项“所以，为什么不传授和分享你所知道的，帮助自己在这些事情上做得越来越好呢?”符合语境，故选G。 第三部分 语言运用(共两节, 满分30分) 第一节(共15小题; 每小题1分, 满分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人空白处的最佳选项.

Liza was a young girl with bright eyes and a hopeful smile. She was sitting on her bed with her laptop. She scrolled through an online store, her eyes lighting up at the sight of a beautiful dress. It was a designer gown(女礼服), shining with sequins(亮片)But it was way out of her budget. She sighed and looked over at her mother, who was reading a book in the armchair by the window. “Mom, can I please get this dress for my prom(正式舞会)? It’s perfect!” Liza pleaded, showing the screen to her mother. Her mother glanced at the price and shook her head. “Liza, that’s too expensive. We can’t afford to spend that much on a dress you’ll wear once.” “But, Mom. Everyone at school is talking about their designer dresses. I don’t want to be the only one without one,” Liz a argued, her voice rising with frustration. Her mother sighed, trying to stay calm. “Honey, I understand, but spending that much money on a dress isn’t practical. Besides, someone has a surprise for you today. You might not need to buy a dress.” Liza lit up. “A surprise? What kind of surprise?” Her mother smiled mysteriously. “You’ll see. Just be patient.” Liza’s grandmother, palm, entered the house, holding a package wrapped neatly in gift paper. Pam’s eyes twinkled as she approached Liza. “Hello, dear! I brought you something special,” palm said warmly, handing the package to Liza. Liza’s curiosity got the better of her, and she eagerly tore open the package. Inside was a beautiful dress, hand crafted with fine details and care. “Liza, try it on. It was made by your grandmother, though not a designer, but it is a sign of love from her,” her mother said.

B In Cedars, Pennsylvania, a cafe is giving disabled people with different abilities and their families a safe and inclusive space to shine. Created in 2022, the cafe was a response to the need in the community for programs that would enable youth with special needs to develop social and professional skills in a safe environment. The cafe was the idea of Pennsylvania mom Maureen Stanko, a teacher, fitness instructor, and musician, who was concerned about her son Nick, who has autism (孤独症) and food allergies, and what he would be able to do after graduation. In Pennsylvania, students with disabilities can stay in school until age 22, but worrying about Nick’s future is what keeps Stanko up at night. Stanko was so worried that she spoke to Nick’s therapist, Tyler Kammerle, who had dreamed about opening a restaurant to employ people with disabilities. The two worked together to make this a reality. Two years later, the So Much To Give Inclusive Cafe was born. It employed 63 people and 80 percent of them have some form of disability. The cafe is more than just a space to work; it’s also a place for people with disabilities and their families to dine. “We’d never even taken Nick to a restaurant before because we wouldn’t spend all this money to eat out to be completely stressed out,” Stanko said. “This cafe has taught Nick how to sit in a restaurant. And now we have a place to go, where if he stands up and starts hopping or clapping, nobody cares.” The inclusive cafe has made a real difference in people’s lives. One of the staff, Lauren Oppelts, who is hearing impaired, said, “If you told me two years ago that I would be a server, I wouldn’t believe you. But now I have gained so much self-confidence. A lot of employees here have changed so much; it’s just mind-blowing.” 4. Why did Stanko and Tyler Kammerle establish the cafe? A. To serve people with various abilities. B. To provide a place for family occasions. C. To instruct graduates in professional skills. D. To offer employment to youth with special needs. 5. What was Stanko’s concern about taking Nick to a restaurant? A. The cost of dining out. B. The noisy customers in restaurants. C. The lack of an inclusive environment. D. The food allergies Nick is suffering from. 6. How has working at the cafe affected Lauren Oppelts? A. She has taken to socializing. B. She has grown more positive. C. She has become experienced in cooking. D. She has recovered from her hearing disability. 7. Which of the following best describes Stanko? A. Caring and responsible. B. Ambitious and devoted. C. Determined and sensitive. D. Tough and reliable. C An artificial intelligence (AI) tool of street view could be used to predict the risk of coronary heart disease — a condition where the heart’s arteries (动脉) are blocked, limiting blood flow to the heart by analysing neighbourhood environments, according to research. A study, published in the European Heart Journal, monitored everyday surroundings, including the quality of roads, buildings, and green spaces, and the role they play in determining heart health. Researchers were able to track the link between these environmental elements, including the presence or absence of pollution, and the risk of coronary heart disease. They found that these neighbourhood characteristics could account for 63% of the differences in heart disease risk from one community to another. The discovery stems from analysing more than half a million AI street view images across US cities, using computer vision to identify and interpret details that might go unnoticed by the human eye. The data provides urban planners and public health officials with information to design healthier living spaces and neighbourhoods. “Undoubtedly, there is a vast amount of social, economic and environmental data set,” said one of the study's authors, Prof Sanjay Rajagopalan. “However, there still remain significant gap s in our knowledge regarding unique environmental aspects of data that are currently beyond human comprehension. This is where the use of computer vision approaches may enable unique understanding of the physical and built environment.” By employing AI, researchers have been able to examine the details of neighbourhoods’ environment. The study employed computer vision technology, including applications used in medical imaging and autonomous driving, to identify details and then interpret them to make predictions or decisions. “We are getting to a place in human civilization where traditional approaches that have been used are rather limited and the use of AI to enhance human understanding is going to be critically important at solving complex problems,” Prof Rajagopalan said. 8. What is the finding of the study? A. How people can prevent heart diseases. B. How environments affect heart health. C. How AI can reduce heart disease risks. D. How the heart's arteries are blocked. 9. What can the finding of the study help to do? A. Promote computer technology. B. Reduce air and water pollution. C Design green neighbourhoods. D. Advertise for an AI company. 10. Why was computer vision used in the study? A. The researchers had no environmental data. B. It had solved some environmental problems. C. People ignored the environment they live in. D. It helped people understand the environment. 11. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. The development of AI for hospitals B. The medical use of a street view tool C. The insight into healthy neighbourhoods D. The link between the heart and environment D Forests have been embraced as a natural climate solution, due to their ability to soak up carbon dioxide from the atmosphere as they grow, locking it up in their trunks, branches, leaves, and roots. But a new study confirms widespread doubts about the potential for most forests in the Western US to help control climate change. Published in Earth’s Future, the paper analyzed trends in carbon storage across the American West from 2005 to 2019. Led by Jazlynn Hall, a forest and landscape ecologist at Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies, the team found that throughout most of the region, climate change and fires may be causing forests to store less carbon, not more. “There’s a growing trend to use forests as natural climate solutions,” said Hall. “Many climate mitigation (减轻) pathways rely in part on additional forest carbon storage to keep warming below 1.5℃ this century. We wanted to provide a baseline for how much carbon is currently stored in Western forests, how it’s changing, and how disturbances like fire and drought pose a threat to climate mitigation targets.” The authors warn that many Western forests could see a rapid acceleration of carbon loss in the coming years or decades. “These challenges have the potential to compromise carbon storage capacity and weaken our ability to mitigate climate change, Hah cautions. By providing a fire-new view of threats at landscape and regional levels, Hall and colleagues provide a framework (框架) that could help forest managers adapt site-specific strategies to strengthen forest resilience (复原力). They also identify the remaining areas with the lowest risk and highest potential to store carbon, such as the Pacific Northwest. “Our study develops new methods to carefully estimate forest-carbon storage at a regional level, track it over time, and find out the causes of changes over time,” said Hall. He expects the methods will be useful in monitoring carbon storage levels going forward, as well as assessing the carbon impacts of management efforts such as forest thinning and planned burning. 12. What does the underlined phrase “soak up” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Put down. B. Take in. C. Bring up. D. Give out. 13. Why was the study conducted? A. To find the best forests for carbon storage. B. To promote forests’ carbon storage capacity. C. To assess the current situation of forests. D. To measure the carbon released into forests. 14. What can we say about the future trend of Western forests? A. Carbon loss will speed up. B. They will become more resilient. C. They will store more carbon. D. They will have no impact on climate. 15. What is the primary function of Hall’s framework for forest management? A. Predicting future forest growth rates. B. Identifying high- risk areas for protection. C. Mapping all the forests in the Western US. D. Helping managers adapt strategies to forests. 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.

Liza was a young girl with bright eyes and a hopeful smile. She was sitting on her bed with her laptop. She scrolled through an online store, her eyes lighting up at the sight of a beautiful dress. It was a designer gown(女礼服), shining with sequins(亮片)But it was way out of her budget. She sighed and looked over at her mother, who was reading a book in the armchair by the window. “Mom, can I please get this dress for my prom(正式舞会)? It’s perfect!” Liza pleaded, showing the screen to her mother. Her mother glanced at the price and shook her head. “Liza, that’s too expensive. We can’t afford to spend that much on a dress you’ll wear once.” “But, Mom. Everyone at school is talking about their designer dresses. I don’t want to be the only one without one,” Liz a argued, her voice rising with frustration. Her mother sighed, trying to stay calm. “Honey, I understand, but spending that much money on a dress isn’t practical. Besides, someone has a surprise for you today. You might not need to buy a dress.” Liza lit up. “A surprise? What kind of surprise?” Her mother smiled mysteriously. “You’ll see. Just be patient.” Liza’s grandmother, palm, entered the house, holding a package wrapped neatly in gift paper. Pam’s eyes twinkled as she approached Liza. “Hello, dear! I brought you something special,” palm said warmly, handing the package to Liza. Liza’s curiosity got the better of her, and she eagerly tore open the package. Inside was a beautiful dress, hand crafted with fine details and care. “Liza, try it on. It was made by your grandmother, though not a designer, but it is a sign of love from her,” her mother said. Liza put on the dress and stood in front of the mirror, with a happy smile on her face. “I will go to the prom in this! My classmate’s will be envious of me!” 注意:1. 续写词数应为150个左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答. In the evening, Liza merrily walked into the hall with the dress, accompanied by her grandmother. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Hearing what her classmate said, Liza proudly took her grandmother’s hand and introduced her to them. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1-5ABACC 6-10 ABCCA 11-15C ABBC 16-20 CAABB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
