At the University of Chicago, some students lined up for a special experience: the opportunity to borrow an original work of art from the school’s Smart Museum of Art.
The program Art To Live With began nearly 70 years ago, in 1958. It was the brainchild of Joseph R. Shapiro, a famous art collector in Chicago, who thought students would come to appreciate art if they could live with it. So, he gave the university fifty works, mostly by European and American artists, to start a lending program open to all students. It was a very popular thing from the start, and within four years, the collection grew to more than 500 pieces.
In 2017 the Smart Museum of Art took over running the program, providing an online and in-person preview of the works available from the collection. Students have about one week to go through the collection and identify their favorites among the color lithographs by masters such as Joan Miró, Marc Chagall and Yves Tanguy, representative prints by Gordon Parks and Jenny, Holzer, and even a couple of Picassos. Then they lined up outside the Smart Museum, waiting to bring their selections home to hang on dorm room walls.
Rafaela Grieco-Freeman, in her second year of studying mathematics and economics, is a huge art enthusiast and had her eye on a work by one of the old masters, Francisco de Goya. When she first heard about the program as a freshman, her immediate reaction was disbelief. She said, “It’s astonishing to be a part of this and have these like priceless, you know works of art and also like pieces of history… just in a dorm room!”
Vanja Malloy, the Smart’s Director, says her hope is that it provides students with a more in-depth view of art and life. “It encourages them to look closely at an artwork, to learn more about it, to have a curiosity that then develops throughout their lives,” Malloy explains.
4. What do we know about Joseph R. Shapiro?
A. S He is in charge of an art museum. B. He is the initiator of Art To Live With.
C. He favored European and American artists most. D. He gave away his own creations to the university.
5. How can students get information about works available from Smart Museum of Art?
A. By surfing the Internet. B. By consulting masters of art.
C. By discussing with classmates. D. By queuing up outside the museum.
6. Which aspect of the program surprised Rafaela Grieco-Freeman at first?
A. Long history. B. Nice environment.
C. Hardworking staff. D. Invaluable collections.
7 What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Shape Career Prospects B. Rescue Traditional Museums
C. Borrow Original Art for Dorms D. Transform Educational Systems
【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D 7. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了芝加哥大学允许学生将一些原创艺术品借回宿舍,文章说明了这一活动的背景以及人们对此的看法。
【4题详解】

Shapiro, a famous art collector in Chicago, who thought students would come to appreciate art if they could live with it.(《与艺术共存》节目始于近70年前的1958年。这是芝加哥著名艺术收藏家Joseph R. Shapiro的创意,他认为,如果学生们能与艺术共存,他们就会欣赏艺术)”可知,Joseph R. Shapiro是“与艺术共存”的发起人。故选B。

【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“She said, “It’s astonishing to be a part of this and have these like priceless, you know works of art and also like pieces of history… just in a dorm room!”(她说:“能成为其中的一部分,拥有这些无价之宝,你知道的,艺术品,也像历史一样,真是令人惊讶……就在宿舍里!”)”可知,这个项目无价的收藏品一开始让拉菲拉·格里科·弗里曼感到惊讶。故选D。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“At the University of Chicago, some students lined up for a special experience: the opportunity to borrow an original work of art from the school’s Smart Museum of Art.(在芝加哥大学,一些学生排队等候一项特殊体验:有机会从学校的Smart美术馆借阅一件原创艺术品)”结合文章主要说明了芝加哥大学允许学生将一些原创艺术品借回宿舍,以及这一活动的背景和人们对此的看法。可知,C选项“为宿舍借用原创艺术品”最符合文章标题。故选C。

“If you want to make something smarter, teach it to play,” remarks a pioneering oceanographer (海洋学家) in Richard Powers’ Playground. Evelyne Beaulieu is one of several brilliant characters in the novel who eagerly approach their work every day with the excitement of “a baby in Toyland.” During decades exploring the ocean floor and playing “hide-and-seek with octopuses and tag with pygmy seahorses,” the Montreal-born diver feels as if she’s been “set loose in the greatest playground any child had ever seen.” But she is also concerned by the changes she’s witnessed over the years — including the declining reefs and other species.
Where The Overstory, Powers’ 2019 Pulitzer Prize-winner, addressed the destruction of forests, Playground focuses on the threats to oceans, which cover 71% of Earth’s surface and house 99% of the world’s biosphere. Powers makes clear that while we humans have made this planet our amusement park, we have not always taken proper care of our toys.
Throughout a career that spans 40 years and 14 novels Powers has heightened our awareness by creating smart, sympathetic (but by no means perfect) characters, many of them scientists and techies who deal with these serious issues. In Playground, he dives into several relationships in which lifelong friends and lovers struggle movingly to weather the challenges of diverse and conflicting priorities.
Playground joins a welcome increase in recent fiction featuring female scientists, including not just Powers’ Overstory but Martin MacInnes’ In Ascension, Bonnie Garmus’ Lessons in Chemistry, and Francesca Segal’s Welcome to Glorious Tuga, which is also set on a remote island. But the greatest takeaway from the novel, which is filled with love for humanity and the planet, is that while change is unavoidable, the easily destroyed wonders of life — underwater and on land — are worth enjoying and saving.
8. How does Beaulieu feel about her work?
A. Depressed. B. Puzzled. C. Challenged. D. Entertained.
9. What does the phrase “our toys” in paragraph 2 most probably refer to?
A. Human children. B. Amusement parks. C. Ocean life. D. Diving suits.
10. What can be learned about Playground from the last paragraph?
A. It is written by a female scientist.
B. It remains the top-selling fiction for the time being.
C. It has a setting similar to Welcome to Glorious Tuga.
D. It proves that the extinction of some species is unavoidable.
11. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A To clarify ways to enjoy nature wonders.
B. To honor representative environmentalists.
C. To give a brief account of threats to the ocean.
D. To introduce a book on environmental conservation.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. C 11. D
【解析】
【导语】文章为一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了:Richard Powers的小说《Playground》聚焦海洋威胁。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第一段中“Evelyne Beaulieu is one of several brilliant characters in the novel who eagerly approach their work every day with the excitement of “a baby in Toyland.” (Evelyne Beaulieu是小说中几个杰出的人物之一,她每天都像“玩具乐园里的婴儿”一样兴奋地热切地工作。)”可知,Evelyne Beaulieu是小说中几位杰出人物之一,对自己的工作感到愉快。故选D。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。由文章第二段中“Where The Overstory, Powers’ 2019 Pulitzer Prize-winner, addressed the destruction of forests, Playground focuses on the threats to oceans, which cover 71% of Earth’s surface and house 99% of the world’s biosphere. Powers makes clear that while we humans have made this planet our amusement park, we have not always taken proper care of our toys. (在Powers2019年获得普利策奖的小说《The Overstory》中,他探讨了森林的破坏问题,而《Playground》则聚焦于对海洋的威胁,海洋覆盖了地球71%的表面,容纳了世界上99%的生物圈。鲍尔斯明确指出,虽然我们把地球变成了自己的游乐场,但我们并没有总是妥善照顾我们的“玩具”。)”可知,这里的our toys指的是海洋生命。A. Human children人类儿童;B. Amusement parks游乐园;C. Ocean life海洋生物;D. Diving suits潜水服。故选C。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。由文章最后一段中“Playground joins a welcome increase in recent fiction featuring female scientists, including not just Powers’ Overstory but Martin MacInnes’ In Ascension, Bonnie Garmus’ Lessons in Chemistry, and Francesca Segal’s Welcome to Glorious Tuga, which is also set on a remote island. (《Playground》加入了近年来以女性科学家为主角的虚构作品日益增多的行列,其中不仅包括Powers的《Overstory》,还有Martin MacInnes的《In Ascension》、Bonnie Garmus的《Lessons in Chemistry》和Francesca Segal的《Welcome to Glorious Tuga》,后者也将背景设定在一个遥远的岛屿上。)”可知,它的背景类似于《Welcome to Glorious Tuga》。故选C。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是由文章第二段中“Where The Overstory, Powers’ 2019 Pulitzer Prize-winner, addressed the destruction of forests, Playground focuses on the threats to oceans, which cover 71% of Earth’s surface and house 99% of the world’s biosphere. (在Powers2019年获得普利策奖的小说《The Overstory》中,他探讨了森林的破坏问题,而《Playground》则聚焦于对海洋的威胁,海洋覆盖了地球71%的表面,容纳了世界上99%的生物圈。)”和最后一段中“Playground joins a welcome increase in recent fiction featuring female scientists, including not just Powers’ Overstory but Martin MacInnes’ In Ascension, Bonnie Garmus’ Lessons in Chemistry, and Francesca Segal’s Welcome to Glorious Tuga, which is also set on a remote island.

D
As the war in Gaza dragged on for a hundred days, I found it more difficult to cope with the news. Struggling to hold back tears after reading another story of human tragedy, I turned to ChatGPT. The AI offered practical advice: limit media exposure, focus on the positive, and practice self-care. While I acknowledged the value of these suggestions, I didn’t feel any better.
Millions of people are now turning to chatbots like ChatGPT for mental health support, which is convenient and inexpensive. Some experts praise this development, arguing that AI, free from embarrassment and burnout, can express empathy (共情) more openly and tirelessly than humans. However, others question whether AI can truly experience empathy and worry about the consequences of seeking emotional support from machines that only pretend to care.
AI-powered chatbots have advanced greatly in reading human emotions, powered by large language models (LLMs ) that predict which words are most likely to appear together based on training data. However, AI still falls short in other criteria for empathy. It lacks the natural awareness and understanding of an individual and their situation. Consider someone who cries while telling a doctor she is pregnant. If we know her history of trying for years to have a baby, we can imagine that her tears mean something different than, say, if she didn’t want to have kids.
Moreover, AI can’t feel for the person they’re interacting with. “We have no reason to think AI can experience empathy,” says bioethicist Jodi Halpern. “It can produce language that sounds like empathy, but it doesn’t have empathy.”
Also, empathy is a two-way process, and its effectiveness depends on how we perceive and emotionally connect to the other person or machine. When people know they’re interacting with AI, they feel less supported and understood. Therefore, as we turn to AI empathy more and more we should be aware of its limitations and not neglect the importance of developing genuine human connections.
12. Why did the author turn to ChatGPT after learning the news about Gaza?
A. To test the function of AI. B. To seek for emotional support.
C. To reduce his media exposure. D. To find ways to cease the war.
13. What do tears imply for the pregnant woman in paragraph 3?
A. Excitement. B. Depression. C. Confusion. D. Unwillingness.
14. What is Halpern’s opinion about AI?
A. It lacks real empathy. B. It needs to be regulated.
C. It offers practical advice. D. It is welcomed by healthy workers.
15. What does the text mainly talk about?
A. Machine learning. B. Artificial kindness.
C. Disease treatment. D. Interpersonal relationship.
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了人们现在越来越倾向于使用ChatGPT和专业的治疗机器人来获取方便且低成本的心理支持。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“As the war in Gaza dragged on for a hundred days, I found it more difficult to cope with the news. Struggling to hold back tears after reading another story of human tragedy, I turned to ChatGPT.(随着加沙战争持续了百日,我发现越来越难以应对这些新闻。在读到又一起人间悲剧的故事后,我努力抑制着眼泪,随后转向了ChatGPT)”可知,作者在读到一个悲剧的故事后,转向ChatGPT是为了寻求情感支持。故选B项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“onsider someone who cries while telling a doctor she is pregnant. If we know her history of trying for years to have a baby, we can imagine that her tears mean something different than, say, if she didn’t want to have kids.(考虑一个女性在告诉医生她怀孕时流下了眼泪。如果我们知道她有着多年尝试怀孕的历史,我们可以想象,她的眼泪所表达的意义与那些并不想要孩子的人是不同的)”由此可推知,第三段中孕妇的眼泪意味着兴奋和高兴。故选A项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中““We have no reason to think AI can experience empathy,” says bioethicist Jodi Halpern. “It can produce language that sounds like empathy, but it doesn’t have empathy.”(“我们没有理由认为人工智能会有同理心,”生物伦理学家Jodi Halpern说。“它可以产生听起来像同理心的语言,但它没有同理心。”)”可知,Halpern认为人工智能缺乏真正的同理心。故选A项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据全文内容以及第二段中“Millions of people are now turning to chatbots like ChatGPT for mental health support, which is convenient and inexpensive. Some experts praise this development, arguing that AI, free from embarrassment and burnout, can express empathy (共情) more openly and tirelessly than humans.( 数以百万计的人现在转向像ChatGPT这样的聊天机器人寻求心理健康支持,这既方便又便宜。一些专家对这一发展表示赞赏,认为人工智能没有尴尬和倦怠,可以比人类更公开、更不知疲倦地表达同理心)”及最后一段中“Therefore, as we turn to AI empathy more and more we should be aware of its limitations and not neglect the importance of developing genuine human connections.(因此,当我们越来越多地转向AI共情时,我们应该意识到其局限性,而不应忽视培养真实的人际关系的重要性)”可知,可知,本文主要讲的是随着人工智能的发展,很多人转向人工智能寻求情感支持,但人工智能缺乏真正的共情,因此我们要意识到它的局限性,不要忽视发展真正的人际关系。所以本文主要是关于“人工善意”的。故选B项。
第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)

Standing up to peer pressure will save you the trouble of getting pressured again because it sends a clear message that you’ re not interested.(最基本的方法就是说“不”。勇敢地面对同伴的压力会让你省去再次承受压力的麻烦,因为这传递了一个明确的信息,那就是你不感兴趣。)”以及后文“This shows that you’re not willing to give in. There are lots of ways to say ‘no’. For example, say, “No, thanks, I’ll pass.”(这表明你不愿意让步。说“不”的方式有很多种。比如,你可以说:“不,谢谢,我不去了。”)”可知,本句主要说明“表明你不愿意让步”的具体做法,故C选项“要坚定,要有眼神交流”符合语境,故选C。
【17题详解】
根据本段内容“This is a great option if you’re feeling shy, or if you don’t want to come off as being rude. Come up with some sort of an excuse, apologize, and get away as soon as you can. For example, you could say “Oh, I just forgot, I have to study for the math exam.”(如果你感到害羞,或者你不想给人粗鲁的印象,这是一个很好的选择。找个借口,道歉,然后尽快离开。例如,你可以说“哦,我刚刚忘记了,我要为数学考试学习。”)”可知,本段提到了找借口来拒绝,B选项excuse对应后文excuse。故B选项“找一个可信的借口”符合语境,故选B。
【18题详解】
根据后文“When your phone rings, pick it up, talk for a bit, then say you have to leave.(当你的手机响了,拿起它,聊一会儿,然后说你要走了。)”可知,后文提到了接打电话,推测本句与拨打电话有关,故E选项“如果对方很坚决,发短信给你的朋友或父母,让他们给你打电话”符合语境,故选E。
【19题详解】
根据后文“Your friends should accept you for who you are without wanting to change you. If your friends don’t make bad decisions, you’re less likely to make them, too. Choose friends because you like them, not because they’re “cool”. They should like you and care about you.(你的朋友应该接受真实的你,而不是想要改变你。如果你的朋友不做出错误的决定,你也不太可能做出错误的决定。选择朋友是因为你喜欢他们,而不是因为他们“酷”。他们应该喜欢你,关心你。)”可知,后文提到你的朋友应该接受真实的你,而不是想要改变你,说明选择朋友要选择能够接受真实的你的朋友,故G选项“应对同辈压力,从选择不会强迫你做事的朋友开始”符合语境,故选G。
【20题详解】
根据上文“Your parents generally want to support you and help you succeed. If you’re struggling with peer pressure, turn to them. They might have some ideas for how to handle it. If nothing else, ask them to listen and understand your experience.(你的父母通常会支持你,帮助你成功。如果你正与同伴压力作斗争,求助于他们。他们可能有办法处理。如果没有别的,请他们倾听并理解你的经历。)”可知,上文提到了求助于父母,本句为本段最后一句,承接上文,说明父母对于减压的作用,D选项中They 指代上文parents 。故D选项“他们至少可以给你一个拥抱,告诉你他们爱你”符合语境,故选D。

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Lily had always been a frail and sickly girl since her childhood. She was constantly in and out of hospitals battling various minor illnesses. Her weak physical condition made her feel like an outsider among her peers who were always full of energy and vitality in and out of school.
One day, when Lily heard about the school cross-country race would be held soon, an thought came into her mind suddenly. She decided that this was her chance to prove to herself and everyone else that she was more than just a sickly girl. Without the slightest hesitation, she decided to enter for the greatest ever race for herself. Considering her poor strength, her parents and friends tried to persuade her to give it up. However, Lily didn’t change her mind and started to train for the race from then on.
At first, every step was a struggle. She would get out of breath quickly and her legs would ache after just a short distance. But Lily was bound and determined to challenge herself. She started with short walks, gradually increasing the distance each day. She would push herself a little further each time, ignoring the pain and tiredness. As the days passed, Lily’s strength began to grow little by little. She could run for longer periods without stopping and her endurance (忍耐力) improved significantly.
The day of the big cross-country run arrived at last. Lily stood at the starting line and her heart beat quickly and loudly with excitement and a touch of nervousness. As the starting gun fired, Lily took off with other runners. The course was really tough, with hills and rough terrain, but Lily didn’t draw back. She kept pushing forward, remembering every detail of the training she had put great efforts into. As she ran, she focused on her breathing and her pace, without realizing the tiredness was slowly beginning to occur.
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。
About halfway through the race, Lily began to struggle.

As she rounded the last bend, she could see the finishing line just ahead.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
About halfway through the race, Lily began to struggle. Her legs felt like lead, and every breath seemed harder than the last. Doubts crept into her mind, whispering that she should just stop and walk. However, she remembered the countless hours of training, the pain she had endured, and the determination that had driven her to this moment. Encouraged by the cheers of her classmates, she willed herself to keep going, pushing through the discomfort and reminding herself that she was capable of more than she had ever believed.
As she rounded the last bend, she could see the finishing line just ahead. A surge of adrenaline coursed through her body, and she found a reserve of strength she didn’t know she had. With a renewed sense of purpose, Lily sprinted toward the finish line, her heart racing with exhilaration. As she crossed it, a wave of joy washed over her, and she realized that this moment was not just about finishing the race; it was about overcoming her limitations and proving to herself that she could achieve anything she set her mind to.
【解析】

At the University of Chicago, some students lined up for a special experience: the opportunity to borrow an original work of art from the school’s Smart Museum of Art.
The program Art To Live With began nearly 70 years ago, in 1958. It was the brainchild of Joseph R. Shapiro, a famous art collector in Chicago, who thought students would come to appreciate art if they could live with it. So, he gave the university fifty works, mostly by European and American artists, to start a lending program open to all students. It was a very popular thing from the start, and within four years, the collection grew to more than 500 pieces.
In 2017, the Smart Museum of Art took over running the program, providing an online and in-person preview of the works available from the collection. Students have about one week to go through the collection and identify their favorites among the color lithographs by masters such as Joan Miró, Marc Chagall and Yves Tanguy, representative prints by Gordon Parks and Jenny, Holzer, and even a couple of Picassos. Then they lined up outside the Smart Museum, waiting to bring their selections home to hang on dorm room walls.
Rafaela Grieco-Freeman, in her second year of studying mathematics and economics, is a huge art enthusiast and had her eye on a work by one of the old masters, Francisco de Goya. When she first heard about the program as a freshman, her immediate reaction was disbelief. She said, “It’s astonishing to be a part of this and have these like priceless, you know works of art and also like pieces of history… just in a dorm room!”
Vanja Malloy, the Smart’s Director, says her hope is that it provides students with a more in-depth view of art and life. “It encourages them to look closely at an artwork, to learn more about it, to have a curiosity that then develops throughout their lives,” Malloy explains.
4. What do we know about Joseph R. Shapiro?

“If you want to make something smarter, teach it to play,” remarks a pioneering oceanographer (海洋学家) in Richard Powers’ Playground. Evelyne Beaulieu is one of several brilliant characters in the novel who eagerly approach their work every day with the excitement of “a baby in Toyland.” During decades exploring the ocean floor and playing “hide-and-seek with octopuses and tag with pygmy seahorses,” the Montreal-born diver feels as if she’s been “set loose in the greatest playground any child had ever seen.” But she is also concerned by the changes she’s witnessed over the years — including the declining reefs and other species.
Where The Overstory, Powers’ 2019 Pulitzer Prize-winner, addressed the destruction of forests, Playground focuses on the threats to oceans, which cover 71% of Earth’s surface and house 99% of the world’s biosphere. Powers makes clear that while we humans have made this planet our amusement park, we have not always taken proper care of our toys.
Throughout a career that spans 40 years and 14 novels, Powers has heightened our awareness by creating smart, sympathetic (but by no means perfect) characters, many of them scientists and techies who deal with these serious issues. In Playground, he dives into several relationships in which lifelong friends and lovers struggle movingly to weather the challenges of diverse and conflicting priorities.
Playground joins a welcome increase in recent fiction featuring female scientists, including not just Powers’ Overstory but Martin MacInnes’ In Ascension, Bonnie Garmus’ Lessons in Chemistry, and Francesca Segal’s Welcome to Glorious Tuga, which is also set on a remote island. But the greatest takeaway from the novel, which is filled with love for humanity and the planet, is that while change is unavoidable, the easily destroyed wonders of life — underwater and on land — are worth enjoying and saving.
8. How does Beaulieu feel about her work?
A. Depressed. B. Puzzled. C. Challenged. D. Entertained.
9. What does the phrase “our toys” in paragraph 2 most probably refer to?
A. Human children. B. Amusement parks. C. Ocean life. D. Diving suits.
10. What can be learned about Playground from the last paragraph?
A. It is written by a female scientist.
B. It remains the top-selling fiction for the time being.
C. It has a setting similar to Welcome to Glorious Tuga.
D. It proves that the extinction of some species is unavoidable.
11. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To clarify ways to enjoy nature wonders.
B. To honor representative environmentalists.
C. To give a brief account of threats to the ocean.
D. To introduce a book on environmental conservation.
D
As the war in Gaza dragged on for a hundred days, I found it more difficult to cope with the news. Struggling to hold back tears after reading another story of human tragedy, I turned to ChatGPT. The AI offered practical advice: limit media exposure, focus on the positive, and practice self-care. While I acknowledged the value of these suggestions, I didn’t feel any better.
Millions of people are now turning to chatbots like ChatGPT for mental health support, which is convenient and inexpensive. Some experts praise this development, arguing that AI, free from embarrassment and burnout, can express empathy (共情) more openly and tirelessly than humans. However, others question whether AI can truly experience empathy and worry about the consequences of seeking emotional support from machines that only pretend to care.
AI-powered chatbots have advanced greatly in reading human emotions, powered by large language models (LLMs ) that predict which words are most likely to appear together based on training data. However, AI still falls short in other criteria for empathy. It lacks the natural awareness and understanding of an individual and their situation. Consider someone who cries while telling a doctor she is pregnant. If we know her history of trying for years to have a baby, we can imagine that her tears mean something different than, say, if she didn’t want to have kids.
Moreover, AI can’t feel for the person they’re interacting with. “We have no reason to think AI can experience empathy,” says bioethicist Jodi Halpern. “It can produce language that sounds like empathy, but it doesn’t have empathy.”
Also, empathy is a two-way process, and its effectiveness depends on how we perceive and emotionally connect to the other person or machine. When people know they’re interacting with AI, they feel less supported and understood. Therefore, as we turn to AI empathy more and more we should be aware of its limitations and not neglect the importance of developing genuine human connections.
12. Why did the author turn to ChatGPT after learning the news about Gaza?
A. To test the function of AI. B. To seek for emotional support.
C. To reduce his media exposure. D. To find ways to cease the war.
13. What do tears imply for the pregnant woman in paragraph 3?
A. Excitement. B. Depression. C. Confusion. D. Unwillingness.
14. What is Halpern’s opinion about AI?
A. It lacks real empathy. B. It needs to be regulated.
C. It offers practical advice. D. It is welcomed by healthy workers.
15. What does the text mainly talk about?
A. Machine learning. B. Artificial kindness.
C. Disease treatment. D. Interpersonal relationship.

Lily had always been a frail and sickly girl since her childhood. She was constantly in and out of hospitals, battling various minor illnesses. Her weak physical condition made her feel like an outsider among her peers who were always full of energy and vitality in and out of school.
One day, when Lily heard about the school cross-country race would be held soon, an thought came into her mind suddenly. She decided that this was her chance to prove to herself and everyone else that she was more than just a sickly girl. Without the slightest hesitation, she decided to enter for the greatest ever race for herself. Considering her poor strength, her parents and friends tried to persuade her to give it up. However, Lily didn’t change her mind and started to train for the race from then on.
At first, every step was a struggle. She would get out of breath quickly and her legs would ache after just a short distance. But Lily was bound and determined to challenge herself. She started with short walks, gradually increasing the distance each day. She would push herself a little further each time, ignoring the pain and tiredness. As the days passed, Lily’s strength began to grow little by little. She could run for longer periods without stopping and her endurance (忍耐力) improved significantly.
The day of the big cross-country run arrived at last. Lily stood at the starting line and her heart beat quickly and loudly with excitement and a touch of nervousness. As the starting gun fired, Lily took off with other runners. The course was really tough, with hills and rough terrain, but Lily didn’t draw back. She kept pushing forward, remembering every detail of the training she had put great efforts into. As she ran, she focused on her breathing and her pace, without realizing the tiredness was slowly beginning to occur.
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。
About halfway through the race, Lily began to struggle.

As she rounded the last bend she could see the finishing line just ahead.
