It was she was filling in for another bus driver that day that it turned out she was in the right place at the right time. Radford-Baker was about to drop off students at Seagoville North Elementary School when something went wrong - all of it caught on surveillance video (监控录像). Video from inside the bus showed 7-year-old Preston Bell put something in his mouth. Moments later, he dropped down between the seats before heading toward his bus driver. “He mentioned something about a penny and I immediately said, Penny? I just grabbed him, ran down the stairs with him. On my way to the sidewalk, I was actually performing the Heimlich maneuver,” Radford-Baker explained. “The whole entire time I’m saying, ‘Baby, breathe. I got you. Breathe,’” she continued. He was limp and blue in the face. That is when Radford-Baker spotted a parent and asked her to call 911. Radford-Baker said she had never performed the Heimlich before, but in that moment — her training kicked in. “I was nervous at the time. But I couldn’t panic,” she said. “All I said to myself was, ‘God, help me. Help me save this baby.’” She didn’t even realize when a quarter flew out of Preston’s mouth. “The lady said, ‘Ma’am, there’s a quarter there,’ and I’m still in shock because I’m still trying to work with him and he stepped to the side and said, ‘I’m OK. I can breathe,’” Radford-Baker recalled. “It was a powerful relief for me because I can’t believe that I just reversed this whole thing that could have really gone wrong.” She doesn’t know how she got the courage to do what she did that day, but she knows, “I feel like God placed me there for a reason... I mean, if I wasn’t there, I don’t know what the other driver may have done.” 4. Why did Preston Bell walk toward the driver? A. Because he tripped over the seats. B. Because he choked on a coin. C. Because he suddenly fell unconscious. D. Because he ruined the video device. 5 What did Radford-Baker do while performing the Heimlich maneuver? A. She comforted the student. B. She tried to spot the student’s parent. C. She called 911 for immediate assistance. D. She gave the student mouth-to-mouth breathing. 6. What does the underlined phrase “kicked in” mean in Para. 4? A. Passed down. B. Popped up. C. Came into being. D. Did the trick. 7. Which of the following can best describe Radford-Baker? A. Earnest and sympathetic. B. Adventurous and competent. C. Courageous and composed. D. Approachable and considerate. 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了公交车司机Radford-Baker在紧急情况下救助被硬币噎住的学生Preston Bell的故事。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Video from inside the bus showed 7-year-old Preston Bell put something in his mouth. Moments later, he dropped down between the seats before heading toward his bus driver.(公交车内的监控录像显示，7岁的Preston Bell把某样东西放进了嘴里。片刻之后，他倒在座位之间，然后走向司机)”和文章第三段“He mentioned something about a penny…(他提到了硬币...)”可知，Preston Bell在吃了某样东西后突然倒下，并走向司机，同时提到了硬币。结合后文Radford-Baker的描述，可以推断Preston Bell是因为被硬币噎住而走向司机求助。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段““On my way to the sidewalk, I was actually performing the Heimlich maneuver,” Radford-Baker explained. “The whole entire time I’m saying, ‘Baby, breathe. I got you. Breathe,’”(在走向人行道的路上，我其实正在执行海姆立克急救法，”Radford-Baker解释道。“我一直在说，‘宝贝，呼吸。我在这里。呼吸，’”)”可知，Radford-Baker在执行海姆立克急救法时，一直在安慰和鼓励学生呼吸。故选A。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。根据上文“Radford-Baker said she had never performed the Heimlich before, but…(Radford-Baker说她之前从未执行过海姆立克急救法，但……)”可知，Radford-Baker虽然之前没有执行过海姆立克急救法，但在紧急情况下，她的训练发挥了作用。这里的“kicked in”意思是“开始起作用，奏效”。因此，选项D“Did the trick(奏效，起作用)”是正确的。故选D。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段““He mentioned something about a penny and I immediately said, Penny? I just grabbed him, ran down the stairs with him. On my way to the sidewalk, I was actually performing the Heimlich maneuver,” Radford-Baker explained. “The whole entire time I’m saying, ‘Baby, breathe. I got you. Breathe,’” she continued. He was limp and blue in the face.(“他提到了硬币，”Radford-Baker解释道，“我立刻问，‘是硬币吗？’然后我就抓住他，和他一起跑下楼梯。在去人行道的路上，我其实正在给他做海姆立克急救法。”“我一直对他说，‘宝贝，呼吸。我在这里，呼吸，’”她继续说道。他当时身体绵软，脸色发青)”可推知，Radford-Baker在紧急情况下表现出极大的勇气和冷静。她不仅迅速反应执行急救法，还一直安慰学生并寻求帮助。这些行为展示了她的勇敢和镇定。因此，选项C“Courageous and composed(勇敢且镇定)”最能描述Radford-Baker。故选C。 C The grandmother of a one-year-old girl allowed two angry co-passengers to take her granddaughter to the restroom for disciplining as she was crying continuously during a flight. They even filmed the incident and posted it on social networking sites, sparking widespread and heated discussion. In the video, the little girl is seen squeezed inside a narrow restroom with the two female passengers, crying as they repeatedly tell her she can’t leave until she stops crying. A number of parents who watched the video lost their cool, feeling that society has become too strict, even child-averse. They recalled how travelling with their kids was an anxious and unsettled experience, always fearing that any noise might annoy others. A netizen shared online that she has been repeatedly instructed by train or flight attendants to “keep her child under control”, leading her to feel discriminated against as a mother. Liu Minghui, a lawyer with the Dao Rong Law Firm in Beijing, said this action is inappropriate and if the child falls ill as a result, it infringes (侵害) on her right to health. Liu also emphasized that guardians should never allow strangers to take their children away, as the risks are simply too unpredictable. Qiao Xinsheng, a professor of law from Zhongnan University, said parents’ permissiveness was making children undisciplined, and having strangers step in might be an effective approach, so long as done with the guardian’s agreement and presence. In 2011, Germany, known for its strict noise control, changed its law to allow noise exemption (豁免) rights to children under six, recognizing that their sounds are natural and harmless to the environment. While children are mindful of others from an early age, the public should offer more patience and understanding. Don’t be hard on them. 8. Why was the little girl taken to the restroom on the plane? A. To bear blame. B. To relieve herself. C. To film the incident. D. To cry out alone. 9. How did many parents feel at sight of the video? A. Angry and shocked B. Indifferent and speechless C. Desperate and depressed D. Embarrassed and guilty 10. What can be inferred based on different people’s views? A. Children disciplined by strangers can be resilient. B. Two strangers may take potential consequences caused. C. Permissive parenting can erase discipline problems. D. The guardian’s presence frees strangers’ responsibility 11. What does the author mainly convey? A. Be cautious of strangers. B. Don’t be angry to the person in tears. C. Be tolerant of ignorant children. D. Don’t blame the child for any fault. 【答案】8. A 9. A 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章讲述飞机上小女孩被陌生人管教这一事件以及引发的广泛讨论，探讨在公共场合对待儿童哭闹等情况应持有的态度。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“The grandmother of a one-year-old girl allowed two angry co-passengers to take her granddaughter to the restroom for disciplining as she was crying continuously during a flight. (一名一岁女孩的祖母允许两名愤怒的同机乘客带她的孙女去洗手间进行管教，因为在飞行途中女孩一直在不停地哭泣)”可知，小女孩在飞机上一直哭，两名愤怒的同机乘客要带她去洗手间管教她，也就是让她去承担被管教的责任。故选A项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“A number of parents who watched the video lost their cool, feeling that society has become too strict, even child-averse. (不少观看影片的家长失去了冷静，觉得社会变得太严格了，甚至厌恶孩子)”可知，很多看过视频的父母都很生气，觉得社会变得太严格，甚至厌恶孩子了。由此可知，他们是既生气又震惊的。故选A项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Liu Minghui, a lawyer with the Dao Rong Law Firm in Beijing, said this action is inappropriate and if the child falls ill as a result, it infringes (侵害) on her right to health. Liu also emphasized that guardians should never allow strangers to take their children away, as the risks are simply too unpredictable. (北京道荣律师事务所的律师刘明辉说，这种行为是不恰当的，如果孩子因此生病，就侵犯了她的健康权。刘还强调，监护人绝不能允许陌生人带走他们的孩子，因为风险实在是太不可预测了)”可知，律师刘明辉认为这种行为不合适，两名陌生人这样做可能会带来潜在的后果。故选B项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“The grandmother of a one-year-old girl allowed two angry co-passengers to take her granddaughter to the restroom for disciplining as she was crying continuously during a flight. They even filmed the incident and posted it on social networking sites, sparking widespread and heated discussion. (一名一岁女孩的祖母允许两名愤怒的副乘客带她的孙女去洗手间管教，因为孙女在飞行过程中不断哭泣。他们甚至将事件拍摄下来并发布到社交网站上，引发了广泛而激烈的讨论)”及最后一段“In 2011, Germany, known for its strict noise control, changed its law to allow noise exemption (豁免) rights to children under six, recognizing that their sounds are natural and harmless to the environment. While children are mindful of others from an early age, the public should offer more patience and understanding. Don’t be hard on them. (2011年，以严格噪音控制而闻名的德国修改了法律，允许6岁以下儿童享有噪音豁免权利，承认他们的声音是自然的，对环境无害。虽然孩子们从小就关心他人，但公众应该提供更多的耐心和理解。不要对他们太苛刻)”可推知，作者主要是想传达公众应该对孩子多一些耐心和理解，不要对他们太苛刻，也就是要宽容无知的孩子。故选C项。 D Scientists have created a virtual brain network that can predict the behavior of individual neurons (神经元) in a living brain. The model is based on a fruit fly’s visual system, which offers scientists a way to quickly test ideas on a computer before investing weeks in experiments involving actual flies or other lab animals. The approach, described in the journal Nature, also suggests that power-hungry artificial intelligence systems like ChatGPT might consume much less energy if they used some of the computation strategies (计算策略) found in a living brain. A fruit fly brain is “small and energy efficient,” says Jakob Macke, a professor at the University of Tubingen and an author of the study. “It’s able to do so many computations. It’s able to fly, it’s able to walk, it’s able to detect predators, it’s able to survive-using just 100,000 neurons.” In contrast, AI systems typically require computers with billions of transistors (晶体管) Worldwide, they consume as much power as a small country. When scientists think about AI right now, the leading charge is to make these AI systems more power efficient. Borrowing strategies from the fruit fly brain might be one way to make that happen, he says. The virtual brain network was made possible by intense research on the composition and structure of the fruit fly brain. Much of this work was done by the team which has maps that show every neuron and every connection in the insect’s brain. These maps help create a computer model that can behave much like the fruit fly’s visual system. This system accounts for most of the animal’s brain. “Brains are so complex that I think the only way we are ever able to understand them is by building accurate models,” Macke says. Ultimately, the team produced a model that could predict how every neuron in the artificial network would respond to a particular video. Remarkably, the model also predicted the response of neurons in actual fruit flies that had seen the same videos in earlier studies. Future versions of the model are expected to extend beyond the visual system. and to include tasks beyond detecting motion. “We now have a plan for how to build whole-brain models of brains that do interesting computations,” Macke says. 12. What can a virtual brain network get scientists to guess? A. How the fly brain works after an experimental test. B. How neurons in animals’ brain function individually. C. How a fruit fly’s visual system comes into being. D. How scientists’ prediction can be passed quickly. 13. What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Lowering AI systems’ energy consumption. B. Knowing strategies from the fruit fly brain C. Measuring ChatGPT’ computing accuracy. D. Evaluating the quantity of AI’s transistors. 14. How can building models help scientists know complex brains? A. Precisely and statistically. B. Ambiguously and abstractly. C. Accurately and theoretically. D. Directly and universally. 15. What is future versions of the model expected to be? A. AI-assisted Tools for whole-brain science. B. Complex systems for detecting motion. C. Wonderful videos recording neurons’ responses D. Multi-functional artificial networks. 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。介绍科学家创建的虚拟大脑网络这一科研成果，包括其基于果蝇视觉系统的创建原理、能够预测活体大脑中单个神经元行为的功能，以及阐述该成果对人工智能系统能耗问题的启发，最后还提及了该模型未来版本的拓展方向及其潜在影响。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Scientists have created a virtual brain network that can predict the behavior of individual neurons in a living brain. (科学家创造了一个虚拟大脑网络，该网络能够预测活体大脑中单个神经元的行为。)”可知，虚拟大脑网络能让科学家预测活体大脑中单个神经元的行为，也就是动物大脑中的神经元是如何单独发挥作用的，故选B项。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中“When scientists think about AI right now, the leading charge is to make these AI systems more power efficient. Borrowing strategies from the fruit fly brain might be one way to make that happen, he says. (当科学家们现在想到人工智能时，首要任务是使这些人工智能系统更加节能。他说，借鉴果蝇大脑的策略可能是实现这一目标的一种方法。)”可知，that指代的是降低人工智能系统的能源消耗，故选A项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“These maps help create a computer model that can behave much like the fruit fly’s visual system. This system accounts for most of the animal’s brain. (这些地图有助于创建一个计算机模型，该模型的行为与果蝇的视觉系统非常相似。这个系统可以解释大部分的动物大脑。)”可知，该模型与果蝇的视觉系统非常相似，而且可以解释大部分的动物大脑行为，说明该模型可以直接地帮助科学家了解普遍动物的复杂的大脑行为。故选D项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Future versions of the model are expected to extend beyond the visual system. and to include tasks beyond detecting motion. ‘We now have a plan for how to build whole-brain models of brains that do interesting computations,’ Macke says (该模型的未来版本有望超越视觉系统。并包括探测运动以外的任务。“我们现在有一个计划，如何构建可以进行有趣计算的大脑全脑模型，”Macke说)”可知，该模型的未来版本有望超越视觉系统，并且包括除检测运动之外的其他任务，即成为全脑科学人工智能辅助工具。故选A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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The Impact of Extracurricular Activities on Student Development Extracurricular activities significantly contribute to personal and social development, preparing students for future challenges.

Each time this kind of thing happened, I was helpless because most of people didn’t offer their help. Once, I was on the side of the road for approximately’ two hours with my car. I put signs on the road, big signs that said NEED A JACK (千斤顶). Luck didn’t fall on me. As I was about to give up, a family in a small truck pulled over, and the father approached to me. It made me surprised. I thought I was a lucky dog. He figured out the situation and called for his daughter, who spoke English. He conveyed through her that he had a jack but that it was too small for my car, so we would need something to support it. Then he got a saw (锯子) from the truck and cut a section out of a big log on the side of the road. We rolled it over and put his jack on top, and we were in business. I started taking the wheel off, and then, if you can believe it, I broke his tire iron. No worries: He handed it to his wife, and she was gone in a flash down the road to buy a new tire iron. She was back in 15 minutes. We finished the job, and I was so moved. We were dirty and sweaty. His wife prepared water for us. We were so thirsty that we drank it up. I tried to give some money to the man, but he didn’t accept it, so instead I went up to the truck and gave it to his wife as quietly as I could. I express my appreciation to them. They told me they live in a farm nearby. They are glad to help me out of trouble. 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。 Paragraph 1: When I was about to say goodbye, they asked if I’d had lunch. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: I got into my Jeep and open the paper bag which they gave me. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Paragraph 1: When I was about to say goodbye, they asked if I’d had lunch.

It was she was filling in for another bus driver that day that it turned out she was in the right place at the right time. Radford-Baker was about to drop off students at Seagoville North Elementary School when something went wrong - all of it caught on surveillance video (监控录像). Video from inside the bus showed 7-year-old Preston Bell put something in his mouth. Moments later, he dropped down between the seats before heading toward his bus driver. “He mentioned something about a penny and I immediately said, Penny? I just grabbed him, ran down the stairs with him. On my way to the sidewalk, I was actually performing the Heimlich maneuver,” Radford-Baker explained. “The whole entire time I’m saying, ‘Baby, breathe. I got you. Breathe,’” she continued. He was limp and blue in the face. That is when Radford-Baker spotted a parent and asked her to call 911. Radford-Baker said she had never performed the Heimlich before, but in that moment — her training kicked in. “I was nervous at the time. But I couldn’t panic,” she said. “All I said to myself was, ‘God, help me. Help me save this baby.’” She didn’t even realize when a quarter flew out of Preston’s mouth. “The lady said, ‘Ma’am, there’s a quarter there,’ and I’m still in shock because I’m still trying to work with him and he stepped to the side and said, ‘I’m OK. I can breathe,’” Radford-Baker recalled. “It was a powerful relief for me because I can’t believe that I just reversed this whole thing that could have really gone wrong.” She doesn’t know how she got the courage to do what she did that day, but she knows, “I feel like God placed me there for a reason... I mean, if I wasn’t there, I don’t know what the other driver may have done.” 4. Why did Preston Bell walk toward the driver? A. Because he tripped over the seats. B. Because he choked on a coin. C. Because he suddenly fell unconscious. D. Because he ruined the video device. 5. What did Radford-Baker do while performing the Heimlich maneuver? A. She comforted the student. B. She tried to spot the student’s parent. C. She called 911 for immediate assistance. D. She gave the student mouth-to-mouth breathing. 6. What does the underlined phrase “kicked in” mean in Para. 4? A. Passed down. B. Popped up. C. Came into being. D. Did the trick. 7. Which of the following can best describe Radford-Baker? A. Earnest and sympathetic. B. Adventurous and competent. C. Courageous and composed. D. Approachable and considerate. C The grandmother of a one-year-old girl allowed two angry co-passengers to take her granddaughter to the restroom for disciplining as she was crying continuously during a flight. They even filmed the incident and posted it on social networking sites, sparking widespread and heated discussion. In the video, the little girl is seen squeezed inside a narrow restroom with the two female passengers, crying as they repeatedly tell her she can’t leave until she stops crying. A number of parents who watched the video lost their cool, feeling that society has become too strict, even child-averse. They recalled how travelling with their kids was an anxious and unsettled experience, always fearing that any noise might annoy others. A netizen shared online that she has been repeatedly instructed by train or flight attendants to “keep her child under control”, leading her to feel discriminated against as a mother. Liu Minghui, a lawyer with the Dao Rong Law Firm in Beijing, said this action is inappropriate and if the child falls ill as a result, it infringes (侵害) on her right to health. Liu also emphasized that guardians should never allow strangers to take their children away, as the risks are simply too unpredictable. Qiao Xinsheng, a professor of law from Zhongnan University, said parents’ permissiveness was making children undisciplined, and having strangers step in might be an effective approach, so long as done with the guardian’s agreement and presence. In 2011, Germany, known for its strict noise control, changed its law to allow noise exemption (豁免) rights to children under six, recognizing that their sounds are natural and harmless to the environment. While children are mindful of others from an early age, the public should offer more patience and understanding. Don’t be hard on them. 8 Why was the little girl taken to the restroom on the plane? A. To bear blame. B. To relieve herself. C. To film the incident. D. To cry out alone. 9. How did many parents feel at sight of the video? A. Angry and shocked B. Indifferent and speechless C. Desperate and depressed D. Embarrassed and guilty 10. What can be inferred based on different people’s views? A. Children disciplined by strangers can be resilient. B. Two strangers may take potential consequences caused. C. Permissive parenting can erase discipline problems. D. The guardian’s presence frees strangers’ responsibility 11 What does the author mainly convey? A. Be cautious of strangers. B. Don’t be angry to the person in tears. C. Be tolerant of ignorant children. D. Don’t blame the child for any fault. D Scientists have created a virtual brain network that can predict the behavior of individual neurons (神经元) in a living brain. The model is based on a fruit fly’s visual system, which offers scientists a way to quickly test ideas on a computer before investing weeks in experiments involving actual flies or other lab animals. The approach, described in the journal Nature, also suggests that power-hungry artificial intelligence systems like ChatGPT might consume much less energy if they used some of the computation strategies (计算策略) found in a living brain. A fruit fly brain is “small and energy efficient,” says Jakob Macke, a professor at the University of Tubingen and an author of the study. “It’s able to do so many computations. It’s able to fly, it’s able to walk, it’s able to detect predators, it’s able to survive-using just 100,000 neurons.” In contrast, AI systems typically require computers with billions of transistors (晶体管) Worldwide, they consume as much power as a small country. When scientists think about AI right now, the leading charge is to make these AI systems more power efficient. Borrowing strategies from the fruit fly brain might be one way to make that happen, he says. The virtual brain network was made possible by intense research on the composition and structure of the fruit fly brain. Much of this work was done by the team which has maps that show every neuron and every connection in the insect’s brain. These maps help create a computer model that can behave much like the fruit fly’s visual system. This system accounts for most of the animal’s brain. “Brains are so complex that I think the only way we are ever able to understand them is by building accurate models,” Macke says. Ultimately, the team produced a model that could predict how every neuron in the artificial network would respond to a particular video. Remarkably, the model also predicted the response of neurons in actual fruit flies that had seen the same videos in earlier studies.

Each time this kind of thing happened, I was helpless because most of people didn’t offer their help. Once, I was on the side of the road for approximately’ two hours with my car. I put signs on the road, big signs that said NEED A JACK (千斤顶). Luck didn’t fall on me. As I was about to give up, a family in a small truck pulled over, and the father approached to me. It made me surprised. I thought I was a lucky dog. He figured out the situation and called for his daughter, who spoke English. He conveyed through her that he had a jack but that it was too small for my car, so we would need something to support it. Then he got a saw (锯子) from the truck and cut a section out of a big log on the side of the road. We rolled it over and put his jack on top, and we were in business. I started taking the wheel off, and then, if you can believe it, I broke his tire iron. No worries: He handed it to his wife, and she was gone in a flash down the road to buy a new tire iron. She was back in 15 minutes. We finished the job, and I was so moved. We were dirty and sweaty. His wife prepared water for us. We were so thirsty that we drank it up. I tried to give some money to the man, but he didn’t accept it, so instead I went up to the truck and gave it to his wife as quietly as I could. I express my appreciation to them. They told me they live in a farm nearby. They are glad to help me out of trouble. 注意：1. 续写词数应150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: When I was about to say goodbye, they asked if I’d had lunch. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: I got into my Jeep and open the paper bag which they gave me. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
