The three finalists in 2022 are shown below. You can read about our winners in 2021 at rd.com/nicest, where we are collecting suggestions for places we should consider in 2023. Coulterville, California Couterville is a tiny town in Northern California, about 1000 miles from Phoenix. It was named after George Coulter, one of the first whites to come to the gold camp already populated by Chinese and Mexican miners. The Chinese first appeared in 1850, creating a small settlement at the north end of what was to be Coulterville. The entire area is a heaven for rock and mineral collectors. Kingsport, Tennessee Kingsport is a city full of originals. Pal’s Sudden Service was born here, as was the recipe for the Original Long Island Iced Tea. The hand- carved carousel (旋转木马) is a beloved original too, which features 32 beautiful hand-carved wooden animals—each lovingly and painstakingly fashioned by a group of Kingsport workers. In the city of makers, more originals are soon on the way. Buchanan, Michigan Buchanan is a peaceful small town having a historic downtown and beautiful natural resources. When asked, “What’s the best thing about Buchanan? The residents declare, Pears Mill.” Pears Mill, a two-floor brick building fitted with machinery for pounding grain into flour, was constructed in 1857, listed on the Michigan Historical Register in 1987 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2009. 1. Which place best suits people who are interested in the Gold Rush? A. Coulterville. B. Kingsport. C. Buchanan. D. Phoenix. 2. What will visitors most probably do in Kingsport, Tennessee? A. Attend a fashion show. B. Dig up rock and mineral. C. Take a walk in the woods. D. Appreciate creative handiwork. 3. What do the three places have in common? A. They have unique historic building. B. They are being promoted at rd.com/nicest. C. They were named after the first white settlers. D. They are shortlisted for America’s Nicest Places. 【答案】1. A 2. D 3. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了美国三个与众不同的地方。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Coulterville, California部分中“Couterville is a tiny town in Northern California, about 1000 miles from Phoenix. It was named after George Coulter, one of the first whites to come to the gold camp already populated by Chinese and Mexican miners. (库特维尔是加州北部的一个小镇，距离凤凰城约1000英里。它以George Coulter的名字命名，他是第一批来到中国和墨西哥矿工聚居的淘金营地的白人之一。)”可知，此处与淘金有关，因此适合对“淘金热”感兴趣的人参观。故选A。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Kingsport, Tennessee部分中“Kingsport is a city full of originals.(金斯波特是一座充满原创精神的城市。)”以及“The hand- carved carousel (旋转木马) is a beloved original too, which features 32 beautiful hand-carved wooden animals—each lovingly and painstakingly fashioned by a group of Kingsport workers. (手工雕刻的旋转木马也是一个受人喜爱的原创作品，它以32个美丽的手工雕刻的木制动物为特色，每一个都是由一群金斯波特工人精心制作的。)”可知，在此处游客们可以欣赏到原创的手工雕刻制品。故选D。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Over the past six years, our readers have brought some very special locations to our attention in our search for the Nicest Places in America. The three finalists in 2022 are shown below.(在过去的六年里，我们的读者在寻找美国最好的地方的过程中，给我们带来了一些非常特别的地方。2022年的三个最终入选名单如下所示。)”可知，这三个地方的共同之处是都入选为美国最美之地。故选D。 B Growing up on a tobacco farm, Emma Avery was used to hard times. When she was seven, her family’s farmhouse burned to the ground. Her father made a temporary shelter, where eight people had to sleep in two beds. As soon as Emma and her four brothers and two sisters were big enough, they were out in the fields. Emma would find her comfort in school, even as a C student, thanks to one teacher. When she moved on to middle school, Emma was alarmingly far behind her classmates. She kept her head down, trying not to be noticed, struggling to catch up, and feeling like an outsider. Then one day, when Emma was 16, a teacher named Mr. Potts changed everything. Looking his students in the eye, Mr. Potts said, “Being a C student does not mean you do not have a valuable contribution to make. Some of you have to work in the fields in the evening and do not have time to study. But if you do your best, you have a gift to give.” The teacher’s words made Emma believe she could do well, and she worked harder. In the end she won a scholarship to St. Paul’s College, graduated with a degree in elementary education in 1967, and got a job in the public-school system. Then, at George Washington University, she received a master’s in education in 1970, and afterwards in the same year she married Ron Smothers. Over the next six years, Emma taught in public schools in Miami. In 1976, after saving $10,000, she opened her first restaurant in Los Angeles. Eventually Emma stopped teaching, and her business expanded to six restaurants. In gratitude for what she has been able to achieve, Emma donates a lot. She has no idea how much money she’s given away. She says, “Those I want to help are the C students who just need help, direction and confidence.” 4. The first paragraph serves to show that Emma ______. A. was poor and had no time to study B. was born on a tobacco farm C. was sad to lose her house D. was kind enough to help support the family 5. From the text we learn that Emma ______. A. won a scholarship to George Washington University B. was unsuccessful as a businesswoman C. was thankful to Mr. Potts D. disliked teaching, and gave up the job 6. From the second paragraph we can infer that Emma was ______. A. unintelligent B. unconfident C. hard-working D. considerate 7. The text mainly wants to tell us ______. A. confidence is the first step to success B. memory of the past is the teacher of the future C. something attempted, something done D nothing is impossible to a willing heart 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. B 7. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。本文讲述了Emma成功的故事。她成功的关键在于老师对她的鼓励，让她有了自信心，能够发挥自己的才干，因此取得了很大的成功。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Growing up on a tobacco farm, Emma Avery was used to hard times. When she was seven, her family’s farmhouse burned to the ground. Her father made a temporary shelter, where eight people had to sleep in two beds. As soon as Emma and her four brothers and two sisters were big enough, they were out in the fields. (出生在种植烟草的农场，Emma Avery习惯了艰苦的日子。当她七岁时，她家的农场小屋被大火夷为平地。她的父亲搭建了一个临时的棚子，在那里8个人挤在两张床上。Emma和她的四个兄弟稍微大一点，就到地里干活。)”和第三段中“Some of you have to work in the fields in the evening and do not have time to study. (你们有些人晚上要在地里干活，没有时间学习。)”可知，第一段主要交代Emma的家庭背景，她出生贫寒，很早就要到地里干活，就是老师说的那些没有时间学习的人。故选A项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段的主要内容，尤其是文章第四段第一句“The teacher’s words made Emma believe she could do well, and she worked harder. (老师的话让Emma相信她可以做好，因此她非常努力地学习。)”可知，Potts老师的鼓励让Emma有了信心，努力学习。由此推测，她对这位老师很感激。故选C项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段的“She kept her head down, trying not to be noticed, struggling to catch up, and feeling like an outsider. (她总是低着头，尽量不被别人注意到，努力赶上他人，并且觉得自己是个局外人。)”可推测，Emma没有自信，很自卑。故选B项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第四段的“The teacher’s words made Emma believe she could do well, and she worked harder. (老师的话让Emma相信她可以做好，因此她非常努力地学习。)”可知，本文讲述了Emma成功的故事。她的成功的关键在于老师对她的鼓励，让她有了自信心，能够发挥自己的才干，因此取得了很大的成功。所以短文主要告诉我们信心是成功的第一步。故选A项。 C A facial expression results from one or more motions of the muscles of the face. These movements convey the emotional nonverbal communication. They are a primary means of conveying social information among humans, but also occur in most other mammals and some other animal species. In the business world, much emphasis is placed on your first words, but it isn’t all about what you say. You only have seconds to make a first impression that can make or break a relationship in business. Since the face is the first thing we notice about a person, it’s vital to use your face to make that important connection. Researchers have shown that 55 percent of non-verbal communication is facial. People generally try to mask negative expressions such as disappointment, fear or envy, but these feelings are often reflected in their eyes, or the downward turn of the mouth. Genuine expressions of anger and surprise can be quite brief, lasting for only a few seconds. If an expression remains longer, it may be a sign of insincerity (不真诚). In general, a genuine expression matches the beginnings of a feeling, so watch for expressions that come after the words. The research conducted last year by a team from Glasgow University, suggested that people from different cultures read facial expressions differently. Not only can that mean confusion in everyday life, but it can lead to confusion when conducting business. The study found that East Asian participants tended to focus on the eyes of the other person, while Western subjects took in the whole face, including the eyes and the mouth. The work, which was published in Current Biology journal challenged the idea that facial expressions are universally understood. In the study, East Asians were more likely than Westerners to read the expression for “fear” as “surprise”, and “disgust” as “anger”. 8. According to the text, in the business world ________. A. people focus more on your words than your facial expressions B. people usually have no time to make a first impression C. the relationship between people is very sensitive D. facial expressions are very important in creating business connections 9. From the fourth paragraph, we can learn that ________. A. genuine expressions usually last for a short time B. the expressions that come after the words are not genuine C. 55 percent of people use facial expressions as non-verbal communication D. negative expressions are very easy to hide 10. Which of the following is TRUE according to the text? A. The result of the study makes it difficult to do business. B. Only humans can convey through facial expressions. C. Negative emotions are easily reflected in the eyes. D. Current Biology financially supports the study. 11. The text is mainly about _______. A. facial expressions in business B. how to convey negative expressions C. facial expressions and social skills D. how to increase cross-cultural understanding 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了面部表情形成及其传达情感等信息的功能，指出在商业世界中面部表情对建立关系很重要，而不同文化的人解读表情的方式存在差异且这种差异会影响商业交流。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“In the business world, much emphasis is placed on your first words, but it isn’t all about what you say. You only have seconds to make a first impression that can make or break a relationship in business. Since the face is the first thing we notice about a person, it’s vital to use your face to make that important connection. (在商业世界里，你的第一句话是很重要的，但并不是你说的全部。你只有几秒钟的时间给人留下第一印象，这可能会成就或破坏一段商业关系。因为脸是我们注意到一个人的第一件事，所以用你的脸来建立重要的联系是至关重要的)”可知，在商业世界中，面部表情对于建立商业联系非常重要。故选D项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Genuine expressions of anger and surprise can be quite brief, lasting for only a few seconds. (真正的愤怒和惊讶的表达可能非常短暂，只持续几秒钟)”可知，真诚的表情通常持续很短的时间。故选A项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“People generally try to mask negative expressions such as disappointment, fear or envy, but these feelings are often reflected in their eyes, or the downward turn of the mouth. (人们通常会试图掩饰失望、恐惧或嫉妒等消极的表情，但这些情绪往往会反映在他们的眼睛里，或者向下的嘴角中)”可知，消极情绪很容易反映在眼睛里。故选C项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章开篇介绍了面部表情的形成及其传达情感等信息的功能；然后重点阐述在商业世界中，面部表情有着关键作用，接着提到面部表情在非言语交流中的占比，以及不同面部表情的特征；最后指出不同文化对表情解读存在差异，这在商业交流中会造成困惑。由此可知，这篇文章主要是关于商业中的面部表情。故选A项。 D AI, or artificial intelligence, has become increasingly popular in everyday life. Programmers code and “train” computers to perform tasks that normally require human intelligence, such as visual recognition, artificial speech, and problem solving. AI algorithms (人工智能算法) work behind the scenes to customize ads and content online, and natural language processors interact and respond with users in a conversational manner. AI chatbots are now widely available and can be used for a variety of purposes . One example of an AI that may help protect individuals is “Take It Down”, a program developed by Meta to help teenagers remove unauthorized photos from the internet. While there are concerns about AI programs collecting data and invading privacy, AI automation can save time and improve efficiency in many areas, including this task that would otherwise take hours to perform manually. The current generation of AI chatbots still face limitations in fully simulating human emotions and attending to subtle variations of language cues in human conversations. The problems result from AI developers’ preference of language choices. They must continue to work on improving AI processing and linguistics for a more humanized approach. AI may also change how we approach education and tutoring. AI tutoring programs and AI-assisted mental health services could provide 24/7 accessibility for students and personalized assessments for academic, behavioral, and mental health issues. However, concerns remain over the potential misuse of AI technology for cheating and plagiarism in academic settings. Despite concerns about privacy and the sci-fi idea of AI robots taking over, AI will continue to open up new discoveries in all aspects of life. This technology carries both risks and benefits, but if used with care, it can bring positive developments while avoiding risks to livelihoods and privacy. 12. What is the main purpose of “Take It Down”? A. To perform tasks automatically. B. To protect individuals’ privacy. C. To improve work efficiency. D. To collect personal information. 13. AI technology can do the following EXCEPT A. providing mental health services. B. customizing ads and content online. C. fully simulating human emotions. D. assessing academic achievements. 14. What does the underlined word “plagiarism” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Writing. B. Copying. C. Improving. D. Protecting. 15. What is the author’s attitude to the popularization of artificial intelligence? A. Neutral. B. Tolerant. C. Negative. D. Favorable. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了人工智能机器人在生活的各个方面的作用。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“One example of an AI that may help protect individuals is “Take It Down”, a program developed by Meta to help teenagers remove unauthorized photos from the internet.(可能有助于保护个人的人工智能的一个例子是“Take It Down”，这是Meta开发的一个程序，旨在帮助青少年从互联网上删除未经授权的照片。)”可知，“Take It Down”这个程序的作用是保护个人隐私。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“The current generation of AI chatbots still face limitations in fully simulating human emotions and attending to subtle variations of language cues in human conversations.(当前一代的人工智能聊天机器人在完全模拟人类情感和关注人类对话中语言线索的微妙变化方面仍然面临局限性。)”可知 ，目前的人工智能聊天机器人并不能完全模拟人类情感。由此可知，选项C“fully simulating human emotions(完全模拟人类情感)”并不是目前的AI技术所能实现的。故选C。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线单词前的“However, concerns remain over the potential misuse of AI technology for cheating(然而，人们仍然担心人工智能技术可能被滥用于作弊)”可推测，划线单词和and前的“cheating(作弊)”意思相似，指的都是学术环境中的抄袭行为。选项A“Writing (写)”；选项B“Copying (抄袭)”；选项C“Improving (提高)”；选项D“Protecting (保护)”。故选B。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Despite concerns about privacy and the sci-fi idea of AI robots taking over, AI will continue to open up new discoveries in all aspects of life. This technology carries both risks and benefits, but if used with care, it can bring positive developments while avoiding risks to livelihoods and privacy.(尽管对隐私和人工智能机器人接管的科幻想法感到担忧，但人工智能将继续在生活的各个方面开辟新的发现。这项技术有利有弊，但如果谨慎使用，它可以带来积极的发展，同时避免对生计和隐私的风险。)”可推断，作者对于人工智能的普及抱有支持的态度。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。 It is the beginning of a new school year, but for many, it may be their last.

Over the years, the little boy had gone through a total of five corrective surgeries. Justin could no longer walk and was limited to a wheelchair. But this did not stop him from living a normal life thanks to his mother’ S love and others’ help. After entering high school, Justin got interested in playing the trumpet (小号) and joined the school’s band. He served as one of the band’s trumpeters and developed a strong friendship with his partner Tom. As Thanksgiving Day approached, the band intended to perform in the Thanksgiving Day Parade and every member had the chance to join in, including Justin. However, there was one obvious problem. Justin could not control his wheelchair and play the trumpet at the same time. The band director put forward an idea of one student pushing Justin during his marches. Tom immediately volunteered even though it meant he had to give up the opportunity to play his own instrument during the parade.“I do it just to make sure Justin knows that he always has a place in the band, and he always will,“ Tom said to their director secretly. From then on, the two practiced together, one playing the instrument and the other pushing the wheelchair with the rhythm of the music. To help Justin, Tom sacrificed (牺牲) far beyond expectation. Apart from losing the chance to perform, he needed to spare more time to take care of Justin and even missed his football training several times. All of these were seen by Justin and the burden of guilt weighed heavily on his mind.“I can’t meet my own needs at the sacrifice of Tom’s chance. It is time to find a solution.” Justin thought to himself as his mother pushed him on the way home. His mother lowered her head and said,“Justin, play me your new tune.” Justin took out his trumpet and was about to play when an excellent idea came to him. 注意: 1.续写司数立カ150左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相座位置作答。 He turned around to ask his mother for help. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Thanksgiving finally came, as did Justin and mom’s performance. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Possible version He turned around to ask his mother for help. “Mom, could you please push me in the Thanksgiving Day Parade instead of Tom? He gave up his chance of performing to assist me.” Justin looked up at his mother, eagerly awaiting her reply. “Sure, my dear!” Mom bent and kissed his forehead. “I’m happy to join you and witness every moment of your growth.” Justin grinned from ear to ear with the huge load off his mind. With Mom’s participation, the practice went smoothly and joyfully, every member, Justin and Tom included, having a place in the performance and playing their part intently in preparation for the big day. Thanksgiving finally came, as did Justin and mom’s performance. Dressed in the same performing suit, mom pushed Justin proudly with a bright smile on her face as Justin threw himself heart and soul into the performance. Joyful music floating in the air, the mother and son were indeed a perfect match in the parade, which soon became the center of attention. The entire audience broke into thunderous applause, not only for the whole band’s performance, but also for the love between Justin and his mother. Sometimes one person may not walk, but love and assistance can help go anywhere. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了贾斯汀从小得了疾病，必须做轮椅，有一次他想参加感恩节的游行演奏，但是他没办法一边演奏一边控制轮椅，他的朋友汤姆愿意放弃自己演奏的机会来帮助贾斯汀，但是贾斯汀觉得汤姆为自己牺牲太多，最后他请母亲帮他推轮椅，这样最后贾斯汀和汤姆都能参加游行演奏。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“他转身向母亲求助。”可知，第一段可描写贾斯汀向母亲求助，请他帮自己推轮椅，母亲欣然答应。 ②由第二段首句内容“感恩节终于来了，贾斯汀和妈妈的表演也来了。”可知，第二段可描写贾斯汀和妈妈的配合很完美，赢得大家的赞美。 2. 续写线索：贾斯汀从小坐轮椅——感恩节游行演奏即将到来——汤姆牺牲自己成全贾斯汀——贾斯汀感到内疚——请求妈妈帮助——完美演出 3 词汇激活 行为类 ①帮助：assist/help/support ②放弃：give up/abandon ③见证：witness/see/observe ④变成：become/turn into/develop into 情绪类 ①热切地：eagerly/ardently/fervently ②高兴：happy/glad/pleasant 【点睛】[高分句型1]Dressed in the same performing suit, mom pushed Justin proudly with a bright smile on her face as Justin threw himself heart and soul into the performance.

The three finalists in 2022 are shown below. You can read about our winners in 2021 at rd.com/nicest, where we are collecting suggestions for places we should consider in 2023. Coulterville, California Couterville is a tiny town in Northern California, about 1000 miles from Phoenix. It was named after George Coulter, one of the first whites to come to the gold camp already populated by Chinese and Mexican miners. The Chinese first appeared in 1850, creating a small settlement at the north end of what was to be Coulterville. The entire area is a heaven for rock and mineral collectors. Kingsport, Tennessee Kingsport is a city full of originals. Pal’s Sudden Service was born here, as was the recipe for the Original Long Island Iced Tea. The hand- carved carousel (旋转木马) is a beloved original too, which features 32 beautiful hand-carved wooden animals—each lovingly and painstakingly fashioned by a group of Kingsport workers. In the city of makers, more originals are soon on the way. Buchanan, Michigan Buchanan is a peaceful small town having a historic downtown and beautiful natural resources. When asked, “What’s the best thing about Buchanan? The residents declare, Pears Mill.” Pears Mill, a two-floor brick building fitted with machinery for pounding grain into flour, was constructed in 1857, listed on the Michigan Historical Register in 1987 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2009. 1. Which place best suits people who are interested in the Gold Rush? A. Coulterville. B. Kingsport. C. Buchanan. D. Phoenix. 2. What will visitors most probably do in Kingsport, Tennessee? A. Attend a fashion show. B. Dig up rock and mineral. C. Take a walk in the woods. D. Appreciate creative handiwork. 3. What do the three places have in common? A. They have unique historic building. B. They are being promoted at rd.com/nicest. C. They were named after the first white settlers. D. They are shortlisted for America’s Nicest Places. B Growing up on a tobacco farm, Emma Avery was used to hard times. When she was seven, her family’s farmhouse burned to the ground. Her father made a temporary shelter, where eight people had to sleep in two beds. As soon as Emma and her four brothers and two sisters were big enough, they were out in the fields. Emma would find her comfort in school, even as a C student, thanks to one teacher. When she moved on to middle school, Emma was alarmingly far behind her classmates. She kept her head down, trying not to be noticed, struggling to catch up, and feeling like an outsider. Then one day, when Emma was 16, a teacher named Mr. Potts changed everything. Looking his students in the eye, Mr. Potts said, “Being a C student does not mean you do not have a valuable contribution to make. Some of you have to work in the fields in the evening and do not have time to study. But if you do your best, you have a gift to give.” The teacher’s words made Emma believe she could do well, and she worked harder. In the end she won a scholarship to St. Paul’s College, graduated with a degree in elementary education in 1967, and got a job in the public-school system. Then, at George Washington University, she received a master’s in education in 1970, and afterwards in the same year she married Ron Smothers. Over the next six years, Emma taught in public schools in Miami. In 1976, after saving $10,000, she opened her first restaurant in Los Angeles. Eventually Emma stopped teaching, and her business expanded to six restaurants. In gratitude for what she has been able to achieve, Emma donates a lot. She has no idea how much money she’s given away. She says, “Those I want to help are the C students who just need help, direction and confidence.” 4. The first paragraph serves to show that Emma ______. A was poor and had no time to study B. was born on a tobacco farm C. was sad to lose her house D. was kind enough to help support the family 5. From the text we learn that Emma ______. A. won a scholarship to George Washington University B. was unsuccessful as a businesswoman C. was thankful to Mr. Potts D. disliked teaching, and gave up the job 6. From the second paragraph we can infer that Emma was ______. A. unintelligent B. unconfident C. hard-working D. considerate 7. The text mainly wants to tell us ______. A. confidence is the first step to success B. memory of the past is the teacher of the future C. something attempted, something done D. nothing is impossible to a willing heart C A facial expression results from one or more motions of the muscles of the face. These movements convey the emotional nonverbal communication. They are a primary means of conveying social information among humans, but also occur in most other mammals and some other animal species. In the business world, much emphasis is placed on your first words, but it isn’t all about what you say. You only have seconds to make a first impression that can make or break a relationship in business. Since the face is the first thing we notice about a person, it’s vital to use your face to make that important connection. Researchers have shown that 55 percent of non-verbal communication is facial. People generally try to mask negative expressions such as disappointment, fear or envy, but these feelings are often reflected in their eyes, or the downward turn of the mouth. Genuine expressions of anger and surprise can be quite brief, lasting for only a few seconds. If an expression remains longer, it may be a sign of insincerity (不真诚). In general, a genuine expression matches the beginnings of a feeling, so watch for expressions that come after the words. The research conducted last year by a team from Glasgow University, suggested that people from different cultures read facial expressions differently. Not only can that mean confusion in everyday life, but it can lead to confusion when conducting business. The study found that East Asian participants tended to focus on the eyes of the other person, while Western subjects took in the whole face, including the eyes and the mouth. The work, which was published in Current Biology journal challenged the idea that facial expressions are universally understood. In the study, East Asians were more likely than Westerners to read the expression for “fear” as “surprise”, and “disgust” as “anger”. 8. According to the text, in the business world ________. A. people focus more on your words than your facial expressions B. people usually have no time to make a first impression C. the relationship between people is very sensitive D. facial expressions are very important in creating business connections 9. From the fourth paragraph, we can learn that ________. A. genuine expressions usually last for a short time B. the expressions that come after the words are not genuine C 55 percent of people use facial expressions as non-verbal communication D. negative expressions are very easy to hide 10. Which of the following is TRUE according to the text? A. The result of the study makes it difficult to do business. B. Only humans can convey through facial expressions. C. Negative emotions are easily reflected in the eyes. D. Current Biology financially supports the study. 11. The text is mainly about _______. A. facial expressions in business B. how to convey negative expressions C. facial expressions and social skills D. how to increase cross-cultural understanding D AI, or artificial intelligence, has become increasingly popular in everyday life. Programmers code and “train” computers to perform tasks that normally require human intelligence, such as visual recognition, artificial speech, and problem solving. AI algorithms (人工智能算法) work behind the scenes to customize ads and content online, and natural language processors interact and respond with users in a conversational manner. AI chatbots are now widely available and can be used for a variety of purposes . One example of an AI that may help protect individuals is “Take It Down”, a program developed by Meta to help teenagers remove unauthorized photos from the internet. While there are concerns about AI programs collecting data and invading privacy, AI automation can save time and improve efficiency in many areas, including this task that would otherwise take hours to perform manually. The current generation of AI chatbots still face limitations in fully simulating human emotions and attending to subtle variations of language cues in human conversations. The problems result from AI developers’ preference of language choices. They must continue to work on improving AI processing and linguistics for a more humanized approach. AI may also change how we approach education and tutoring. AI tutoring programs and AI-assisted mental health services could provide 24/7 accessibility for students and personalized assessments for academic, behavioral, and mental health issues. However, concerns remain over the potential misuse of AI technology for cheating and plagiarism in academic settings. Despite concerns about privacy and the sci-fi idea of AI robots taking over, AI will continue to open up new discoveries in all aspects of life. This technology carries both risks and benefits, but if used with care, it can bring positive developments while avoiding risks to livelihoods and privacy. 12. What is the main purpose of “Take It Down”? A. To perform tasks automatically. B. To protect individuals’ privacy. C. To improve work efficiency. D. To collect personal information. 13. AI technology can do the following EXCEPT A. providing mental health services. B. customizing ads and content online. C. fully simulating human emotions. D. assessing academic achievements. 14. What does the underlined word “plagiarism” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Writing. B. Copying. C. Improving. D. Protecting. 15. What is the author’s attitude to the popularization of artificial intelligence? A. Neutral. B. Tolerant. C. Negative. D. Favorable. 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。 It is the beginning of a new school year, but for many, it may be their last.

Over the years, the little boy had gone through a total of five corrective surgeries. Justin could no longer walk and was limited to a wheelchair. But this did not stop him from living a normal life thanks to his mother’ S love and others’ help. After entering high school, Justin got interested in playing the trumpet (小号) and joined the school’s band. He served as one of the band’s trumpeters and developed a strong friendship with his partner Tom. As Thanksgiving Day approached, the band intended to perform in the Thanksgiving Day Parade and every member had the chance to join in, including Justin. However, there was one obvious problem. Justin could not control his wheelchair and play the trumpet at the same time. The band director put forward an idea of one student pushing Justin during his marches. Tom immediately volunteered even though it meant he had to give up the opportunity to play his own instrument during the parade.“I do it just to make sure Justin knows that he always has a place in the band, and he always will,“ Tom said to their director secretly. From then on, the two practiced together, one playing the instrument and the other pushing the wheelchair with the rhythm of the music. To help Justin Tom sacrificed (牺牲) far beyond expectation. Apart from losing the chance to perform, he needed to spare more time to take care of Justin and even missed his football training several times. All of these were seen by Justin and the burden of guilt weighed heavily on his mind.“I can’t meet my own needs at the sacrifice of Tom’s chance. It is time to find a solution.” Justin thought to himself as his mother pushed him on the way home. His mother lowered her head and said,“Justin, play me your new tune.” Justin took out his trumpet and was about to play when an excellent idea came to him. 注意: 1.续写司数立カ150左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相座位置作答。 He turned around to ask his mother for help. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Thanksgiving finally came, as did Justin and mom’s performance. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力1-5 CBCAC 6-10 ACBAB 11-15 AABBC 16-20 BCAAC 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
