(志愿者的任务每周都不一样。农场的任务可能包括保持田地里没有杂草和岩石，轮流种植新作物，枯萎的花朵，合作灌溉，堆肥和享受肮脏的时光。)”可知，志愿者每周做的事情不同。故选B项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“We welcome volunteers 10 years old and older. Those between 10 and 14 years old are required to have a parent actively volunteering beside them.(我们欢迎10岁及以上的志愿者。10岁至14岁的孩子必须有一位家长积极陪伴)”可知，志愿者的最低年龄可能是10岁。故选B项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“We encourage all volunteers to carpool, bike or ride public transportation; there is a charge for parking on all Stanford property. (我们鼓励所有志愿者拼车、骑自行车或乘坐公共交通工具；在斯坦福大学的所有财产上停车都要收费。”可知，志愿者要避免独自开车。故选A项。 B Le’ Ann Solmonson, a professional counselor (顾问) in Nacogdoches, Texas, has seen families fall into a pattern as children reach adolescence (青春期): The youth want more autonomy and begin to push against their parents’ rules. In response, the parents tighten their control or give punishment, only to have the adolescent push back harder and break more rules. Thus conflicts happen. “Adolescents’ goal is to figure out ‘Who am I? Where do I fit in?’ and begin that separation from their parents. Some of that development leads to trying out new things,” says Solmonson. “These are natural things that can fuel disagreements.” In counseling, Solmonson often asks a teen and his or her parents to name a small conflict they struggle with. She invites the teen to explain his or her views about the disagreement. Then, she encourages the parents to give their views and repeat what their child said. Usually, the parents immediately jump to why the teen’s take is wrong. If this happens, Solmonson will remind them that she wants to hear what they think of their child’s view is, not whether it’s right or wrong. She also gives the adolescent the same assignment: Paraphrase (转述) your parents’ position without giving an opinion on what was said. The aim, she explains, is to develop understanding toward the other party’s viewpoint. Parents often need to work on how they respond t to their teen when what they see as a mistake occurs. Cooperating with the teen to find out what led to the situation and what they need to solve it will prevent them furthering the conflict, Solmonson stresses. Instead of responding in anger, she coaches parents to use supportive statements like “That must have been so stressful. How can we prevent that happening again?” Moreover, Solmonson often stresses that if parents want respect during disagreements with their child, they’ll need to show it themselves. If a teen answers disrespectfully, Solmonson coaches parents to respond by saying, “I’m going to give you a do-over. Do you need a minute to think about how to say that?” rather than blowing up in anger. 4. What do children expect to do when turning adolescents? A. Become more independent. B. Control their anger. C. Prevent parent-child conflicts. D. Set new boundaries. 5. What is parents’ common response to Solmonson’s question in counseling? A. Summarizing their experience. B. Pointing out the child’s risk-taking behaviors. C. Explaining the wrongness of the child’s views. D. Offering their opinions about disagreements. 6. What is Solmonson’s advice for parents when their teen makes a mistake? A. Deal with it on their own. B. Give immediate punishment. C. Ignore it without discussion. D. Work together for its cause. 7. What can we know from the last paragraph? A. It is necessary for parents to blow up angrily. B. Teens often disrespect their parents. C. Parents should model respect for their teens. D. Disagreements are hard to solve. 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。当小孩进人青春期时，容易与父母产生冲突。一位专业咨询师对此提出了一些建议。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“The youth want more autonomy and begin to push against their parents’ rules. (年轻人想要更多的自主权，开始反抗父母的规定。)”和第二段““Adolescents’ goal is to figure out ‘Who am I? Where do I fit in?’ and begin that separation from their parents. Some of that development leads to trying out new things,” says Solmonson.(“青少年的目标是弄清楚‘我是谁？我的位置在哪里？并开始与父母分离。其中一些发展导致尝试新事物，”索尔蒙森说。)”可知，当孩子们进入青春期时，他们想要更多自由, 期望变得更加独立。故选A。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Usually, the parents immediately jump to why the teen’s take is wrong. (通常，父母会立即跳到为什么孩子的想法是错误的。)”可知，在咨询中，当Solmonson让父母表达他们对父母和孩子之间的分歧的想法时，父母常见的反应是解释孩子观点的错误。故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Cooperating with the teen to find out what led to the situation and what they need to solve it will prevent them furthering the conflict, Solmonson stresses. (Solmonson强调，与青少年合作，找出导致这种情况的原因，以及他们需要什么来解决问题，这将防止他们进一步激化冲突。)”可推断，当孩子犯错误时，Solmonson建议父母与孩子一起找出问题的原因。故选D。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Moreover, Solmonson often stresses that if parents want respect during disagreements with their child, they’ll need to show it themselves. (此外，Solmonson经常强调，如果父母希望在与孩子发生分歧时得到尊重，他们需要自己把尊重展现出来。)”可推断，在父母和孩子们之间产生分歧时，父母应该给孩子示范如何尊重人，从而成为树立尊重青少年的榜样。故选C。 C Think of a typical college physics course: notetaking, homework struggles and studying for difficult exams. Now imagine access to a tutor (导师) who answers questions at any hour, never tires and never judges. Might you learn more? The AI-supported tutor is surprisingly more effective. That’s the unexpected conclusion from a Harvard study examining learning outcomes for students in a large physics course. The study was led by lecturer Gregory Kestin and Kelly Miller, who analyzed learning outcomes of 194 students registered in fall 2023 in Kestin’s Physical Sciences 2 course. Before the study, the team created instructions for the AI tutor to follow for each lesson so it’d behave like an experienced instructor. The students were divided into two groups, each of whom experienced two lessons in continual weeks. During the first week, Group 1 participated in an instructor-guided active learning classroom lesson, while Group 2 engaged with an AI-supported lesson at home that followed a research-informed design; conditions were changed oppositely the following week. “We went into the study curious about whether our AI tutor could be as effective as in-person instructors,” Kestin said. “I certainly didn’t expect students to find the AI-powered lesson more engaging. But that’s exactly what happened: Not only did the AI tutor seem to help students learn more materials, the students also self-reported more engagement when working with AI.” The researchers found that learning gains for students in the AI-tutored group were about double those for students in the in-class group. The researchers believe students’ ability to get personalized feedback (反馈) and self pace with the AI tutor are advantages. “In various in-class settings, students with a strong background in the material may be less engaged, and they’re sometimes bored,” Miller said. “Students without the background sometimes struggle to keep up. So the fact that this AI tutor can be supportive of that difference is probably the biggest thing.” “However, AI could also hurt learning if we’ re not careful,” Kestin said. “AI tutors shouldn’t ‘think’ for students, but rather help them build critical thinking skills. AI tutors shouldn’t replace in-person instruction, but help all students better prepare for it.” 8. What were the participants required to do in the study? A. Make a choice between two courses. B. Instruct the AI tutor in learning skills. C. Report their partners’ feelings. D. Study with different tutors in turn. 9. What did Kestin most probably think of their findings? A. Valueless. B. Doubtful. C. Confusing. D. Surprising. 10. What might probably lead to students’ less engagement in class according to the text? A. Inexperienced in-class instructors. B. Knowing the materials well in advance. C. Feeling bored with AI’s questions. D. Their struggles with the teacher. 11. What can we learn from what Kestin said? A. There exists the potential misuse of AI. B. Researchers are more positive about AI. C. AI tutors should develop critical thinking. D. In-person instruction benefits students more. 【答案】8. D 9. D 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要通过介绍哈佛大学的一项研究，探讨了人工智能导师在物理课程教学中的效果和优势，同时也指出了潜在的注意事项。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“The students were divided into two groups, each of whom experienced two lessons in continual weeks. During the first week, Group 1 participated in an instructor-guided active learning classroom lesson, while Group 2 engaged with an AI-supported lesson at home that followed a research-informed design; conditions were changed oppositely the following week.(学生们被分为两组，每组连续两周上两堂课。在第一周，第一组参与了由讲师指导的主动学习课堂，而第二组则在家中参与了遵循研究设计的人工智能支持的课程；第二周的情况则相反。)”可知，学生们被要求轮流体验两种不同的教学方式，即轮流与不同的导师（人类讲师和AI导师）学习。故选D。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“That’s the unexpected conclusion from a Harvard study examining learning outcomes for students in a large physics course.(这是哈佛大学一项研究得出的意外结论，该研究考察了一门大型物理课程中学生的学习成果。)”以及第四段““I certainly didn’t expect students to find the AI-powered lesson more engaging. But that’s exactly what happened: Not only did the AI tutor seem to help students learn more materials, the students also self-reported more engagement when working with AI.”(“我当然没想到学生会觉得人工智能授课更吸引人。但事实正是如此：AI导师不仅似乎帮助学生学习了更多材料，学生在与AI互动时也自我报告了更高的参与度。”)”可知，Kestin对他们的发现表示了惊讶，认为AI导师的效果超出了他的预期。故选D。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第五段““In various in-class settings, students with a strong background in the material may be less engaged, and they’re sometimes bored,” Miller said. “Students without the background sometimes struggle to keep up. So the fact that this AI tutor can be supportive of that difference is probably the biggest thing.”(“在各种课堂环境中，对材料有扎实背景的学生可能参与度较低，有时甚至感到无聊，”Miller说。“而没有背景的学生有时则难以跟上。因此，这个AI导师能够支持这种差异，可能是它最大的特点。”)”可知，提前了解材料的学生对课堂的参与度较低。故选B。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段““However, AI could also hurt learning if we’ re not careful,” Kestin said. “AI tutors shouldn’t ‘think’ for students, but rather help them build critical thinking skills. AI tutors shouldn’t replace in-person instruction, but help all students better prepare for it.”(“然而，如果我们不小心，AI也可能会损害学习，”Kestin说。“AI导师不应该‘代替’学生思考，而应该帮助他们培养批判性思维能力。AI导师不应该取代面对面授课，而应该帮助所有学生为面对面授课做好更充分的准备。”)”可知，Kestin指出了AI在教育领域应用时可能存在的风险，即如果不谨慎使用，AI可能会对学习产生负面影响。这暗示了存在滥用AI的潜在风险。故选A。 D Children are taught that the polite thing to do is always say “please”. Today’s babies are even taught it using sign language. But how often do you really say “please” in everyday conversations? A new research published in Social Psychology Quarterly found people used the word “please” when making a request only 7% of the time. “We definitely were surprised by the results,” says Tanya Stivers, a professor of sociology at University of California at Los Angeles and one of the authors of the study. “Having such a low number feels counterintuitive.” Using conversation analysis, the study investigated when and where people use “please” in everyday requests. Not only do people use “please” less than 10% of the time when making requests, but they also tend to use it most when they expect a “no” response is forthcoming. Most interestingly, requests phrased with “please” are no more likely to work than other polite requests. Why? Because the word “please” is being used as a way to convince the other person into agreeing with a request they might otherwise be unwilling to do. This small talk can leave the person being asked feeling uncomfortable. “We found that using ‘please’ often indicates that you’re requesting something you shouldn’t be,” Stivers says. According to the study, people are most likely to use “please” when asking someone to stop doing what they’ re doing and do what the asker wants instead, or when making a request they think the other person isn’t going to like. “What people are really trying to say by saying ‘please’ often is that they’ re polite people,” Stivers says. “Sometimes, it doesn’t mean you’ re not being polite just because you’ re not saying ‘please’. There’ re many other phrases we use when making requests to show politeness.” These include things like, “Would you mind...?”, “Would it be OK...?” and “How about...?” It is so funny that we socialize children to do this thing we adults don’t do, but teaching kids to say “please” isn’t bad. Just ensure you’re also including other polite phrases. “If someone is trying to be more polite, I’d recommend adding other polite phrases first, before adding in more ‘please’,” says Stivers. 12. What does the underlined word “counterintuitive” in paragraph 2 mean? A. The same as the fact. B. Contrary to common sense. C. Reasonable to accept. D. Difficult to disagree with. 13. Why does “please” probably fail to work as effectively as expected? A. It makes one feel forced. B. It is said in a rude manner. C. It leaves the asker stressed. D. It gives one a sense of mistrust. 14. What is probably Tanya Stivers’s opinion about being polite? A. It asks people to make requests. B. It means saying “please” more. C. It ought to be done smartly. D. It is a result of societal change. 15. What might be the best title for the text? A. Polite Phrases Now Have Got New Meanings. B. Polite Phrases Are Used More Often in Daily Life. C. Many Other Polite Phrases Are Replacing “Please”. D. “Please” May Soon Become a Thing of the Past. 【答案】12 B 13. A 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了一项关于“please”在日常请求中使用情况的研究，介绍了研究结果、原因以及专家对此的看法和建议。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。结合第一段中关于人们使用“please”一词的频率的研究数据和第二段中“We definitely were surprised by the results(我们对结果感到惊讶)”以及“Having such a low number feels counterintuitive. (有这么低的数字感觉是_____。)”可知，人们对“please”在日常请求中的使用频率之低感到惊讶，这与人们的普遍预期或直觉是相反的。故划线词counterintuitive意为“与直觉相反的，违反常理的”，与B项Contrary to common sense(与常识相反)意思相近。故选B项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Most interestingly, requests phrased with “please” are no more likely to work than other polite requests. Why? Because the word ‘please’ is being used as a way to convince the other person into agreeing with a request they might otherwise be unwilling to do. This small talk can leave the person being asked feeling uncomfortable. (最有趣的是，用“please”表达的请求并不比其他礼貌的请求更有效。为什么？因为“please”这个词被用来说服对方同意他们可能不愿意做的请求。这种闲聊会让被问者感到不舒服)”可知，“please”可能无法像预期那样有效地起作用，因为它让对方感觉被强迫。故选A项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中“Sometimes, it doesn’t mean you’ re not being polite just because you’ re not saying ‘please’. There’ re many other phrases we use when making requests to show politeness. (有时候，仅仅因为你不说“please”，并不意味着你不礼貌。我们在提出请求时还会使用很多其他短语来表示礼貌)”以及“‘If someone is trying to be more polite, I’d recommend adding other polite phrases first, before adding in more ‘please’,” says Stivers. (如果有人想更有礼貌，我建议先添加其他礼貌的短语，然后再添加更多的‘please’)”可知，Tanya Stivers认为礼貌不仅仅是说“please”，还可以通过其他礼貌的短语来表达，即礼貌应该巧妙地表达。故选C项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，特别是根据第一段中“A new research published in Social Psychology Quarterly found people used the word ‘please’ when making a request only 7% of the time. (《社会心理学季刊》上发表的一项新研究发现，人们在提出请求时只有7%的时间会使用“please”这个词)”以及全文对“please”在日常请求中使用情况的研究介绍可知，文章主要讲的是“please”在日常交流中的使用频率越来越低，可能会被其他礼貌短语所取代，故“‘Please’ May Soon Become a Thing of the Past(‘please’可能很快就会成为过去式)”是最佳标题。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。 At first glance (扫视), a name seems a basic part of one’s identity; yet its power in shaping identity is undeniable. “____16____ So it serves as the very basis of one’s self-conception, especially in relation to others,” said Professor David Zhu from Arizona State University. It carries more weight than imagined, from how we relate to the world around us to our personal development. ____17____ In one example, the names Elizabeth and Misty were studied. Those called Elizabeth came across as warm and competent, while Mistys were seen as low on both of these traits (特性). Such viewpoints may lead to real-world consequences, potentially affecting everything from job applications to dating. Interestingly, names may also shape our personalities. ____18____ Zhu’s research found that CEOs with unique names often pursued more distinctive business strategies. “CEOs with a unique name tend to develop a self-conception of being different from peers (同辈), motivating them to pursue untraditional strategies,” Zhu explained. Names may also lead to life choices. People with unique names were viewed as better suited to creative jobs, according to Psychology Today. They discovered Chinese film directors with distinctive names received higher ratings for their work. This suggests that accepting the uniqueness of names could potentially unlock creative potential. ____19____ People with more common names may experience greater social acceptance and likability in the short term. As both unique names and common names have their advantages, perhaps finding the middle road is a solution when naming a child. ____20____ But meanwhile, also call the child by a special and unique nickname. Anyway, your name is your story — make it a great one! A. Names may influence how others view us. B. Actually, common names also have their advantages. C. Choosing the best name is of importance, according to Zhu. D. People with unique names might develop a stronger sense of individuality. E. A name is used to identify an individual and communicate with the individual. F. Zhu recommends giving a child a more common name to get social acceptance. G. Whether your name is common or rare, it is an important part of your identity. 【答案】16. E 17. A 18. D 19. B 20. F 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了名字对人的身份的影响，并分享了取名的建议。 【16题详解】 前文“At first glance (扫视), a name seems a basic part of one’s identity; yet its power in shaping identity is undeniable. (乍一看，名字似乎是一个人身份的基本组成部分；然而，它塑造身份的力量是不可否认的)”指出名字具有强大的塑造身份的力量，后文““So it serves as the very basis of one’s self-conception, especially in relation to others,” said Professor David Zhu from Arizona State University. (亚利桑那州立大学的David Zhu教授说：“因此，它是一个人自我概念的基础，尤其是在与他人的关系中。”)”用David Zhu教授所说的话表明名字的作用在于奠定自我概念，强调了这在人际关系中的重要性，空处也是Zhu的观点，应该与名字在个人身份和与人交流的作用相关，因此E项“A name is used to identify an individual and communicate with the individual. (名字用于识别个人并与个人进行交流)”符合语境，承前启后。故选E。 【17题详解】 后文“In one example, the names Elizabeth and Misty were studied. Those called Elizabeth came across as warm and competent, while Mistys were seen as low on both of these traits (特性). Such viewpoints may lead to real-world consequences, potentially affecting everything from job applications to dating. (在一个例子中，Elizabeth和Misty两个名字被研究了。那些叫Elizabeth的人给人的印象是热情和能干，而Misty们则被认为在这两方面都很差劲。这样的观点可能会导致现实世界的后果，潜在地影响到从求职到约会的方方面面)”给出一项研究，表明不同的名字给人不同的印象，从而影响生活的方方面面，空处位于段首，是段落主旨句，应该会总的指出名字会影响他人对自己的看法，因此A项“Names may influence how others view us. (名字可能会影响别人对我们的看法)”符合语境，契合后文内容。故选A。 【18题详解】 前文“Interestingly, names may also shape our personalities. (有趣的是，名字也可能塑造我们的个性)”总的指出名字会影响人的个性，后文“Zhu’s research found that CEOs with unique names often pursued more distinctive business strategies. (Zhu的研究发现，拥有独特名字的首席执行官往往追求更独特的商业战略)”用Zhu的研究说明名字独特的人往往行事也很独特，空处应起到过渡的作用，指出名字独特和个性鲜明之间的关系，因此D项“People with unique names might develop a stronger sense of individuality. (名字独特的人可能会有更强烈的个性)”符合语境，承前启后。故选D。 【19题详解】 前文“This suggests that accepting the uniqueness of names could potentially unlock creative potential. (这表明，接受名字的独特性可能会潜在地释放创造力)”具体介绍名字独特的好处，后文“People with more common names may experience greater social acceptance and likability in the short term. (名字更普通的人可能会在短期内获得更大的社会认可和好感)”具体介绍名字普通的好处，空处应该将话题转移到名字普通上，指出其也有优点，因此B项“Actually, common names also have their advantages. (实际上，通用名字也有其优点)”符合语境，承前启后。故选B。 【20题详解】 前文“As both unique names and common names have their advantages, perhaps finding the middle road is a solution when naming a child. (独特的名字和普通的名字都有各自的优点，也许在给孩子取名时找到一条中间道路是一个解决方案)”建议取名时要采用折中的策略，后文“But meanwhile, also call the child by a special and unique nickname. (但同时，也要给孩子起一个特殊而独特的昵称)”包含转折，建议孩子有一个独特的昵称，空处应该是建议名字取得普通些，因此F项“Zhu recommends giving a child a more common name to get social acceptance. (Zhu建议给孩子取一个更普通的名字，以获得社会认可)”符合语境，承接前文，和后文构成转折。故选F。 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入空白处的最佳选项。 I’d driven at least three laps around the building.

I might have been nine years old. The sun shone through my curtains, gently waking me up. Then I heard my mom’s voice from downstairs. “Emily! Breakfast is ready!” I quickly got dressed and raced down the stairs, the smell of pancakes guiding me to the kitchen. My little brother, Tommy, was already at the table, staring at the pancakes. “Morning, sleepyhead,” Dad said with a smile as I sat down. As we ate, Mom mentioned, “Your Aunt Sarah is coming over later. She’s bringing some old photo albums (相册).” I sighed secretly. Photo albums meant hours of sitting still when the adults recalled the good old days, talking about grandmothers and grandfathers. But little did I know this Sunday would be different. After breakfast, I determined to make the most of my free time before Aunt Sarah arrived. I headed to the backyard, where our tree house stood tall and was inviting. As I climbed up, I noticed something odd—a small key hanging from one of the branches. Out of curiosity, I called out to Tommy. He climbed up the ladder, his eyes widening at the sight of the key. “Whoa! Where did that come from?” “I don’t know,” I replied, carefully taking it down. “But I think we should investigate.” For the next hour, we searched the backyard, looking for anything the key might open. We checked old toy boxes, the garden shed and even the loose boards on the fence. Nothing seemed to fit. Just as we were about to give up, we heard Aunt Sarah’s car pull into the driveway. Disappointed but still interested, we headed inside. “There are my favorite niece and nephew!” Aunt Sarah cheered, enveloping us with a warm hug. She set down a large, dusty box on the coffee table. To our surprise, the box wasn’t filled with photo albums, but with all sorts of trinkets (小饰品). 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， As Aunt Sarah began to explain each item, I couldn’t help but notice an old, wooden box at the bottom. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Aunt Sarah’s jaw dropped as I put the key into the lock. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】As Aunt Sarah began to explain each item, I couldn’t help but notice an old, wooden box at the bottom. “Aunt Sarah,” I interrupted, my heart racing. “What’s that box?” She smiled, a twinkle in her eye. “Oh, that old thing? It belonged to your grandmother, who always said it held a special secret, but none of us could ever open it. The key was lost years ago.” Tommy and I exchanged excited glances. Could it be? I pulled out the key we’d found earlier that morning. “Would this work?” I wondered, starting trying inserting the key into the lock. Aunt Sarah’s jaw dropped as I put the key into the lock. With a satisfying click, the box opened, revealing a collection of handwritten letters. As we read through the letters-love notes between our grandparents, we learned about their journey, their struggles and their love for each other and their family. Tears welled up in Aunt Sarah’s eyes as she hugged us tightly. “You two have uncovered a family treasure,” she said, her voice filled with emotion. That Sunday morning taught me the value of curiosity, family history, and the unexpected adventures that could arise from the most ordinary days. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了一个九岁小女孩Emily在一个周日的早晨，与她的弟弟Tommy在后院发现了一把神秘的小钥匙，并试图找出它能打开什么锁的故事。在寻找的过程中，他们的Aunt Sarah来访，原本以为会带来旧相册，结果却带来了一箱小饰品。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“当Aunt Sarah开始解释每一件物品时，我不禁注意到底部有一个旧的木制盒子。”可知，第一段可描写Emily发现旧木盒并与Aunt Sarah关于木盒的对话及随后的激动心情。 ②由第二段首句内容“当我把钥匙插进锁里时，Aunt Sarah惊讶得合不拢嘴。”可知，第二段可描写Emily成功用钥匙打开旧木盒后的发现以及所引起的反应。 2.续写线索：交换眼色——拿出钥匙——插入钥匙——发现情书——阅读情书——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①交换：exchange/swap ②插入：insert into/put into ③发现：uncover/discover 情绪类 ①兴奋的：excited/thrilled ②激动：emotion/excitement 【点睛】[高分句型1] It belonged to your grandmother, who always said it held a special secret, but none of us could ever open it.

B Le’ Ann Solmonson, a professional counselor (顾问) in Nacogdoches, Texas, has seen families fall into a pattern as children reach adolescence (青春期): The youth want more autonomy and begin to push against their parents’ rules. In response, the parents tighten their control or give punishment, only to have the adolescent push back harder and break more rules. Thus conflicts happen. “Adolescents’ goal is to figure out ‘Who am I? Where do I fit in?’ and begin that separation from their parents. Some of that development leads to trying out new things,” says Solmonson. “These are natural things that can fuel disagreements.” In counseling Solmonson often asks a teen and his or her parents to name a small conflict they struggle with. She invites the teen to explain his or her views about the disagreement. Then, she encourages the parents to give their views and repeat what their child said. Usually, the parents immediately jump to why the teen’s take is wrong. If this happens, Solmonson will remind them that she wants to hear what they think of their child’s view is, not whether it’s right or wrong. She also gives the adolescent the same assignment: Paraphrase (转述) your parents’ position without giving an opinion on what was said. The aim, she explains, is to develop understanding toward the other party’s viewpoint. Parents often need to work on how they respond t to their teen when what they see as a mistake occurs. Cooperating with the teen to find out what led to the situation and what they need to solve it will prevent them furthering the conflict, Solmonson stresses. Instead of responding in anger, she coaches parents to use supportive statements like “That must have been so stressful. How can we prevent that happening again?” Moreover, Solmonson often stresses that if parents want respect during disagreements with their child, they’ll need to show it themselves. If a teen answers disrespectfully, Solmonson coaches parents to respond by saying, “I’m going to give you a do-over. Do you need a minute to think about how to say that?” rather than blowing up in anger. 4. What do children expect to do when turning adolescents? A. Become more independent. B. Control their anger. C. Prevent parent-child conflicts. D. Set new boundaries. 5. What is parents’ common response to Solmonson’s question in counseling? A. Summarizing their experience. B. Pointing out the child’s risk-taking behaviors. C. Explaining the wrongness of the child’s views. D. Offering their opinions about disagreements. 6. What is Solmonson’s advice for parents when their teen makes a mistake? A. Deal with it on their own. B. Give immediate punishment. C. Ignore it without discussion. D. Work together for its cause. 7. What can we know from the last paragraph? A. It is necessary for parents to blow up angrily. B. Teens often disrespect their parents. C. Parents should model respect for their teens. D. Disagreements are hard to solve. C Think of a typical college physics course: notetaking, homework struggles and studying for difficult exams. Now imagine access to a tutor (导师) who answers questions at any hour, never tires and never judges. Might you learn more? The AI-supported tutor is surprisingly more effective. That’s the unexpected conclusion from a Harvard study examining learning outcomes for students in a large physics course. The study was led by lecturer Gregory Kestin and Kelly Miller, who analyzed learning outcomes of 194 students registered in fall 2023 in Kestin’s Physical Sciences 2 course. Before the study, the team created instructions for the AI tutor to follow for each lesson so it’d behave like an experienced instructor. The students were divided into two groups, each of whom experienced two lessons in continual weeks. During the first week, Group 1 participated in an instructor-guided active learning classroom lesson, while Group 2 engaged with an AI-supported lesson at home that followed a research-informed design; conditions were changed oppositely the following week. “We went into the study curious about whether our AI tutor could be as effective as in-person instructors,” Kestin said. “I certainly didn’t expect students to find the AI-powered lesson more engaging. But that’s exactly what happened: Not only did the AI tutor seem to help students learn more materials, the students also self-reported more engagement when working with AI.” The researchers found that learning gains for students in the AI-tutored group were about double those for students in the in-class group. The researchers believe students’ ability to get personalized feedback (反馈) and self pace with the AI tutor are advantages. “In various in-class settings, students with a strong background in the material may be less engaged, and they’re sometimes bored,” Miller said. “Students without the background sometimes struggle to keep up. So the fact that this AI tutor can be supportive of that difference is probably the biggest thing.” “However, AI could also hurt learning if we’ re not careful,” Kestin said. “AI tutors shouldn’t ‘think’ for students, but rather help them build critical thinking skills.

D Children are taught that the polite thing to do is always say “please”. Today’s babies are even taught it using sign language. But how often do you really say “please” in everyday conversations? A new research published in Social Psychology Quarterly found people used the word “please” when making a request only 7% of the time. “We definitely were surprised by the results,” says Tanya Stivers, a professor of sociology at University of California at Los Angeles and one of the authors of the study. “Having such a low number feels counterintuitive.” Using conversation analysis, the study investigated when and where people use “please” in everyday requests. Not only do people use “please” less than 10% of the time when making requests, but they also tend to use it most when they expect a “no” response is forthcoming. Most interestingly, requests phrased with “please” are no more likely to work than other polite requests. Why? Because the word “please” is being used as a way to convince the other person into agreeing with a request they might otherwise be unwilling to do. This small talk can leave the person being asked feeling uncomfortable. “We found that using ‘please’ often indicates that you’re requesting something you shouldn’t be,” Stivers says. According to the study, people are most likely to use “please” when asking someone to stop doing what they’ re doing and do what the asker wants instead, or when making a request they think the other person isn’t going to like. “What people are really trying to say by saying ‘please’ often is that they’ re polite people,” Stivers says. “Sometimes, it doesn’t mean you’ re not being polite just because you’ re not saying ‘please’. There’ re many other phrases we use when making requests to show politeness.” These include things like, “Would you mind...?”, “Would it be OK...?” and “How about...?” It is so funny that we socialize children to do this thing we adults don’t do, but teaching kids to say “please” isn’t bad. Just ensure you’re also including other polite phrases. “If someone is trying to be more polite, I’d recommend adding other polite phrases first, before adding in more ‘please’,” says Stivers. 12. What does the underlined word “counterintuitive” in paragraph 2 mean? A. The same as the fact. B. Contrary to common sense. C. Reasonable to accept. D. Difficult to disagree with. 13. Why does “please” probably fail to work as effectively as expected? A. It makes one feel forced. B. It is said in a rude manner. C. It leaves the asker stressed. D. It gives one a sense of mistrust. 14. What is probably Tanya Stivers’s opinion about being polite? A. It asks people to make requests. B. It means saying “please” more. C. It ought to be done smartly. D. It is a result of societal change. 15. What might be the best title for the text? A. Polite Phrases Now Have Got New Meanings. B. Polite Phrases Are Used More Often in Daily Life. C. Many Other Polite Phrases Are Replacing “Please”. D. “Please” May Soon Become a Thing of the Past. 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。 At first glance (扫视), a name seems a basic part of one’s identity; yet its power in shaping identity is undeniable. “____16____ So it serves as the very basis of one’s self-conception, especially in relation to others,” said Professor David Zhu from Arizona State University. It carries more weight than imagined, from how we relate to the world around us to our personal development. ____17____ In one example, the names Elizabeth and Misty were studied. Those called Elizabeth came across as warm and competent, while Mistys were seen as low on both of these traits (特性). Such viewpoints may lead to real-world consequences, potentially affecting everything from job applications to dating. Interestingly, names may also shape our personalities. ____18____ Zhu’s research found that CEOs with unique names often pursued more distinctive business strategies. “CEOs with a unique name tend to develop a self-conception of being different from peers (同辈), motivating them to pursue untraditional strategies,” Zhu explained. Names may also lead to life choices. People with unique names were viewed as better suited to creative jobs, according to Psychology Today. They discovered Chinese film directors with distinctive names received higher ratings for their work. This suggests that accepting the uniqueness of names could potentially unlock creative potential. ____19____ People with more common names may experience greater social acceptance and likability in the short term. As both unique names and common names have their advantages perhaps finding the middle road is a solution when naming a child. ____20____ But meanwhile, also call the child by a special and unique nickname. Anyway, your name is your story — make it a great one! A. Names may influence how others view us. B. Actually, common names also have their advantages. C. Choosing the best name is of importance, according to Zhu. D. People with unique names might develop a stronger sense of individuality. E. A name is used to identify an individual and communicate with the individual. F. Zhu recommends giving a child a more common name to get social acceptance. G. Whether your name is common or rare, it is an important part of your identity. 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入空白处的最佳选项。 I’d driven at least three laps around the building.

I might have been nine years old. The sun shone through my curtains, gently waking me up. Then I heard my mom’s voice from downstairs. “Emily! Breakfast is ready!” I quickly got dressed and raced down the stairs, the smell of pancakes guiding me to the kitchen. My little brother, Tommy, was already at the table, staring at the pancakes. “Morning, sleepyhead,” Dad said with a smile as I sat down. As we ate, Mom mentioned, “Your Aunt Sarah is coming over later. She’s bringing some old photo albums (相册).” I sighed secretly. Photo albums meant hours of sitting still when the adults recalled the good old days, talking about grandmothers and grandfathers. But little did I know this Sunday would be different. After breakfast, I determined to make the most of my free time before Aunt Sarah arrived. I headed to the backyard, where our tree house stood tall and was inviting. As I climbed up, I noticed something odd—a small key hanging from one of the branches. Out of curiosity, I called out to Tommy. He climbed up the ladder, his eyes widening at the sight of the key. “Whoa! Where did that come from?” “I don’t know,” I replied, carefully taking it down. “But I think we should investigate.” For the next hour, we searched the backyard, looking for anything the key might open. We checked old toy boxes, the garden shed and even the loose boards on the fence. Nothing seemed to fit. Just as we were about to give up, we heard Aunt Sarah’s car pull into the driveway. Disappointed but still interested, we headed inside. “There are my favorite niece and nephew!” Aunt Sarah cheered, enveloping us with a warm hug. She set down a large, dusty box on the coffee table. To our surprise, the box wasn’t filled with photo albums, but with all sorts of trinkets (小饰品). 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， As Aunt Sarah began to explain each item, I couldn’t help but notice an old, wooden box at the bottom. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Aunt Sarah’s jaw dropped as I put the key into the lock. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力1~5 BBCAC 6~10 ABACC 11~15 BACBA 16~20 CAABC 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
