May be you can get the answer after reading the following passage about a newly-developed US computer program called Smarter Child and the Internet. If you ran into Smarter Child online, you would be surprised at this kid’s huge memory. It can recite many facts. For example, Smarter Child knows every baseball player in every team this season. He knows every word in the dictionary and the weather in every major city areas across the US. However, if you ask Smarter Child other questions, you get strange answers. A question about Smarter Child’s age returns, “One year, 11 days, 16 hours, 7 minutes, and 47 seconds!” Asking where he lives, “In a clean room in a high-tech building in California.” Smarter Child uses the huge information on the World Wide Web as his memory bank. To answer questions about spelling, for instance, Smarter Child goes to American Heritage Dictionary online. For the weather, he visits www.intellicast.com. Some scientists believe that by joining the many systems of the Internet, an artificial being with the combined knowledge of, say, Albert Einstein, Richard Nixon and Britney Spears could be born. However, if Smarter Child wants to think and learn on his own like the boy-computer David in the movie A. I. Artificial Intelligence, he must solve two problems. The first is that computers find it difficult to read web pages because the files are sorted in different ways. That’s why programmers need to tell Smarter Child where to look for the weather. It would be a much more difficult task to let him find it himself. Another problem is that while Smarter Child can deal with information more exactly and faster than any human, he lacks(缺少) common sense—a basic grounding of knowledge that is obvious(明显的) to any young child. 24. Which of the following cannot be done by Smart Child? A. Spelling words. B. Recording facts. C. Knowing players’ names. D. Answering personal questions. 25. What do we know about www.intellicast.com? A. It is designed to help Smarter Child. B. It is about artificial intelligence. C. It helps people find Smarter Child. D. It can forecast the weather. 26. Which of the following is the most difficult for Smart Child? A. Distinguishing right behaviors from wrong ones. B. Telling how the American government is run. C. Providing a famous poem by Shakespeare. D. Dealing with information accurately. 27. What’s the best title of the text? A. Where is artificial intelligence leading us? B. Can Smart Child have critical thinking? C. How intelligent can Smart Child be? D. Does Smart Child have combined knowledge? 【答案】24. B 25. D 26. A 27. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了关于美国新开发的电脑程序“智能孩子”以及它的功能和限制等。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“If you ran into Smarter Child online, you would be surprised at this kid’s huge memory. It can recite many facts. For example, Smarter Child knows every baseball player in every team this season.（如果你在网上运行“智能孩子”，你会惊讶于它的巨大记忆力。它能背诵许多事实。例如，“智能孩子”认识本赛季每支球队的每一位棒球运动员。）”可知C项正确，根据第三段第一二句“He knows every word in the dictionary and the weather in every major city areas across the US. However, if you ask Smarter Child other questions, you get strange answers.（他知道字典里的每一个单词，知道美国每个大城市的天气情况。然而，如果你问“智能孩子”其他问题，你会得到奇怪的答案。）”可知，智能孩子能回答私人问题，D项正确，根据第四段第二句“To answer questions about spelling, for instance, Smarter Child goes to American Heritage Dictionary online.（例如，要回答拼写方面的问题，“智能孩子”会去美国传统在线词典(American Heritage Dictionary)。）”智能孩子会拼写单词，A项正确，因此得出答案，智能孩子不能记录事实，只能背诵事实。故选B项。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句“For the weather, he visits www.intellicast.com. （有关天气信息，他可以访问www.intellicast.com。）”可知，这里是说www.intellicast.com这个网站可以预报天气。故选D项。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Another problem is that while Smarter Child can deal with information more exactly and faster than any human, he lacks(缺少) common sense—a basic grounding of knowledge that is obvious(明显的) to any young child.（另一个问题是，尽管“智能孩子”能比任何人更准确、更快地处理信息，但他缺乏常识——对任何小孩子来说都显而易见的基本知识基础。）”可知，智能孩子判断不出来正确或者错误的行为，因为缺乏常识。故选A项。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。本篇文章是“总-分”结构，文章第一段“How intelligent can a computer be? May be you can get the answer after reading the following passage about a newly-developed US computer program called Smarter Child and the Internet.（计算机能有多智能?读完下面这篇关于美国新开发的电脑程序“智能孩子和互联网”的文章，也许你就能得到答案了。）”可知，文章开头就点名了主题，即“智能孩子有多智能？”。故选C项。 C Seagrass meadows(海草床) are wonder plants growing beneath the sea. They feed and shelter sea life and are masterful at storing carbon. Thanks to the assistance of tiger sharks, a huge seagrass meadow in the Bahamas Banks was recently discovered, offering the world a tool to fight climate change. Seagrass has usually been detected by Earth-orbiting satellites that identify darker patches in the blue water. In this study, tiger sharks were selected as research tools due to their highly consistent associations with seagrass ecosystems. They spend 70% of their time in seagrass meadows. The team equipped eight tiger sharks with satellite tags (电子跟踪器), seven sharks with camera tags, and used a 360-degree camera on a shark for the first time ever. The data researchers collected was astonishing. The world’s largest seagrass ecosystem, measuring at least 66,900 square kilometers, has been discovered. This reflects a 41% increase from previous estimates of global seagrass. Seagrass can capture (捕获) huge quantities of carbon by photosynthesis (光合作用) and stores it on the seafloor. In terms of climate change, this is excellent news; seagrass is 35 times faster a removing carbon than tropical rainforests. When referred to global seagrass carbon stock estimates, the study indicates that seagrass in the Bahamas may contain 19.2% to 26.3% of all the carbon stored in seagrass meadows on Earth. Yet seagrass meadows are rapidly disappearing, with over 92% of meadows in the UK gone, according to the World Wildlife Fund. Scientists are collecting seeds and trying to grow new seagrass meadows through restoration projects. This new discovery offers optimism and proves the importance of the ocean for healing. The sharks led us to the seagrass ecosystem in the Bahamas, which we now know is likely the most significant blue carbon sink(蓝色碳汇) on the planet. What this discovery shows us is that ocean exploration and research are essential for a healthy future. The untapped potential of the ocean is limitless. These meadows can be protected and can be replicated (复制,仿制), offering hope for climate change around the globe. 28. Why were tiger sharks chosen as research tools? A. They are more flexible than other sea animals. B. They can quickly adjust themselves to the deep sea. C. They have a strong connection with seagrass ecosystems. D. They can be easily equipped with experimental devices. 29. What are the numbers in paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The decline of global seagrass meadows. B. The impact of climate change on sea life. C. The rapid increase in the amount of carbon on Earth. D. The potential value of the world’s largest seagrass ecosystem. 30. What are scientists doing to protect seagrass? A. Planting more seagrass meadows. B. Developing new technology to collect seeds. C. Mapping the distribution of seagrass meadows. D. Encouraging people to join in restoration projects. 31. Which could be the best title for the text? A. The New Way of Removing Carbon B. The Significance of Ocean Exploration C. A New Discovery: World’s Largest Seagrass Meadow D. Tiger Sharks: Scientists’ Essential Helper to Study Climate 【答案】28. C 29. D 30. A 31. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了海草生态系统可以捕获光合作用产生的大量碳并将其储存在海底，为全球气候变化带来希望。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“In this study, tiger sharks were selected as research tools due to their highly consistent associations with seagrass ecosystems.( 在这项研究中，虎鲨被选为研究工具，因为它们与海草生态系统的联系非常一致)”可知，虎鲨被选为研究工具的原因是它们与海草生态系统有着密切的联系，故选C项。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“The data researchers collected was astonishing. The world’s largest seagrass ecosystem, measuring at least 66,900 square kilometers, has been discovered(研究人员收集的数据令人震惊。世界上最大的海草生态系统已被发现，面积至少为66900平方公里)”以及“When referred to global seagrass carbon stock estimates, the study indicates that seagrass in the Bahamas may contain 19.2% to 26.3% of all the carbon stored in seagrass meadows on Earth.(当提到全球海草碳储量估计时，该研究表明，巴哈马的海草可能含有地球上海草草甸中所有碳储量的19.2%至26.3%)”可知，第三段提到的数字是关于世界上最大的海草生态系统的潜在价值，故选D项。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段第二句“Scientists are collecting seeds and trying to grow new seagrass meadows through restoration projects.(科学家们正在收集种子，并试图通过恢复项目种植新的海草草地)”可知，科学家们打算种植更多的海草草地以保护海草，故选A项。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Thanks to the assistance of tiger sharks, a huge seagrass meadow in the Bahamas Banks was recently discovered, offering the world a tool to fight climate change.(在虎鲨的帮助下，最近在巴哈马群岛发现了一片巨大的海草草地，为世界提供了应对气候变化的工具)”、第三段第一句“The data researchers collected was astonishing. The world’s largest seagrass ecosystem, measuring at least 66,900 square kilometers, has been discovered.(研究人员收集的数据令人震惊。世界上最大的海草生态系统已经被发现，面积至少为66900平方公里)”以及最后一段“What this discovery shows us is that ocean exploration and research are essential for a healthy future.(这一发现向我们表明，海洋探索和研究对健康的未来至关重要)”可知，本文主要介绍了一项发现：世界上最大的海草生态系统，故选C项。 D In the coming era of budget(预算) cuts to education, distance learning could become a common thing. The appeal to those in charge of education budgets to trade teachers for technology is so strong that they tend to ignore the disadvantages of distance learning. School facilities are expensive to build and maintain, and teachers are expensive to employ. It’s true that online classes do not require buildings and each class can host hundreds of people, which can result in greater savings, but moving away from a traditional classroom in which a living, breathing human being teaches and interacts with students daily would be a disaster. Physically attending school has hidden benefits: getting up every morning interacting with peers, and building relationships with teachers are important skills to cultivate(培养) in young people. Moreover, schools are more than simple places of traditional learning. They are also places that provide meals, places where students receive mental help and other support. Those policy-makers are often fascinated by the latest technology in education and its potential to transform education overnight. But online education does not allow a teacher to keep a struggling student after class and offer help. Educational videos may deliver academic content, but they are unable to make eye contact or assess a student’s level of engagement. Distance education will never match the personal teaching in a traditional classroom. In their first 18 years of life, American children spend only 9% of their time in school. Yet teachers are expected to prepare them to be responsible citizens, cultivate their social skills, encourage successful time management, and enhance their capacity to compete in a competitive job market. Given these expectations, schools should not become permanently “remote”. The power of the classroom is rooted in the qualities of the people gathered in the same place, at the same time, including their nature, empathy, devotion and so on. Technology, no matter how advanced, should simply be a tool of a good teacher. 32. What is one possible benefit of students attending school physically? A. Forming the habit of getting up early. B. Eating nutritionally well-balanced meals. C. Growing into living and breathing human beings. D. Developing relationships with peers and teachers. 33. What does the author think of the latest technology in education? A. It may reduce face-to-face interaction. B. It may make many teachers jobless. C. It may add to student’s financial burden. D. It may revolutionize classroom teaching. 34. What does the author say teachers are expected to do? A. To enhance student’s leadership capacity. B. To teach students skills in applying for jobs. C. To enable students to adapt to the changes in life. D. To prepare students to be competitive in the future. 35. Why couldn’t technology replace a good teacher? A. It lacks humanity. B. It can’t meet personal needs. C. It is still not advanced. D. It can’t track students’ growth. 【答案】32. D 33. A 34. D 35. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文，作者论述了自己对线上教学和传统课堂的看法，认为线上教学有诸多弊端，传统课堂还是应该成为主流教学。 32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段第一句“Physically attending school has hidden benefits: getting up every morning interacting with peers, and building relationships with teachers are important skills to cultivate(培养) in young people. ”（实际上，上学有隐藏好处：每天早上起床与同龄人互动，与老师建立关系，是培养年轻人的重要技能。）可知，上学可以让学生发展与老师和同龄人之间的关系。故选D项。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“Educational videos may deliver academic content, but they are unable to make eye contact or assess a student’s level of engagement. ”（教育视频可能会传递学术内容，但是它们无法与学生进行眼神交流或者无法评估学生的参与度。）可知，作者认为最新的教育不能与学生眼神交流，推断出作者认为新的教育技术减少了面对面的互动。故选A项。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Yet teachers are expected to prepare them to be responsible citizens, cultivate their social skills, encourage successful time management, and enhance their capacity to compete in a competitive job market.”（但是老师被期盼要为他们做负责任的公民，培养他们的社交技能，鼓励他们成功地管理时间，并且提高他们在竞争激烈的就业市场上竞争能力的准备。）可知，老师要做的都是对孩子未来产生影响的事情，推断出老师要为学生未来在各个领域有竞争力做准备。故选D项。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“The power of the classroom is rooted in the qualities of the people gathered in the same place, at the same time, including their nature, empathy, devotion and so on. Technology, no matter how advanced, should simply be a tool of a good teacher.”（课堂的力量根植于聚集在同一地点同一时间的人们的素质，包括他们的天性，同理心，奉献精神等等。不管多么先进，科技只应该作为好老师手里的工具。）可知，课堂教学能带给人们关于天性，同理心和奉献精神等的关于人性的素质提升，而科技只能作为工具，推断出科技缺少人性。故选A项。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） As the concept of emotional intelligence (EI) has gone global, we’ve watched professionals fail as they try to improve their emotional intelligence because they either don’t know where to focus their efforts or they haven’t understood how to improve these skills on a practical level. In our work consulting with companies and coaching leaders, we have found that if you’re looking to develop particular EI strengths, it helps to consider areas for improvement others have identified along with the goals you want to achieve, and then to actively build habits in those areas rather than simply relying on understanding them conceptually. The first step is to get a sense of how your self-perception (how you see yourself) differs from your reputation (how others see you); ____36____. For example, most of us think that we’re good listeners, but very often that’s really not the case. Without this external reality check, it will be difficult for you to identify the ways that your actions affect your performance. Getting feedback from others can also provide proof of the necessity of shifting our behaviour and motivation to do so. To give you the best sense of where the differences lie between your self-perception and reputation, you should use a 360-degree feedback assessment that takes into account the multiple facets of EI; ____37____. Secondly, when you get your feedback from an assessment, let that inform what you want to improve. But also consider what your goals are. When it comes to cultivating strengths in emotional intelligence, ____38____. Your emotional intelligence is so tied up in your sense of self that being intrinsically motivated to make the effort matters more when changing long-standing habits than it does when simply learning a skill. That means the areas that you choose to actively work on should lie at the crossroads of the feedback you’ve gotten and the areas that are most important to your own aspirations; ____39____as you do the work of strengthening your emotional intelligence. Once you’ve determined which EI skills you want to focus on, identify specific actions that you’ll take. If you’re working on becoming a better listener, for example, you might decide that when you’re conversing with someone you’ll take the time to pause, listen to what they have to say, and check that you understand before you reply. Keep it specific:____40____. By starting to change your routine reactions, you’ll be well on your way to figuring out the old habits that aren’t serving you well and transforming them into new, improved ones that do.

G 37. E 38. A 39. D 40. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要探讨了提高情商的方法：了解自我认知与声誉之间的区别，明确目标，确定改变具体的行动。 【36题详解】 根据上文“The first step is to get a sense of how your self-perception (how you see yourself) differs from your reputation (how others see you);(第一步是弄清楚你的自我认知(你如何看待自己)和你的声誉(别人如何看待你)有何不同)”可知，提高情商第一步得弄清楚你对自己的看法和别人对你的看法有何不同。再结合后句“For example, most of us think that we’re good listeners, but very often that’s really not the case. Without this external reality check, it will be difficult for you to identify the ways that your actions affect your performance.(例如，我们大多数人都认为自己是好的倾听者，但事实往往并非如此。如果没有这种外部的现实检查，你就很难确定你的行为是如何影响你的表现的)”可知，其他人的看法会给我们提供一些好的反馈。G选项“this is true because we can be blind to how we express and read the emotional components of our interactions(这是真的，因为我们可能对我们如何表达和解读互动中的情感成分视而不见)”符合语境，下文是对选项的举例说明。故选G项。 【37题详解】 根据上文“To give you the best sense of where the differences lie between your self-perception and reputation, you should use a 360-degree feedback assessment that takes into account the multiple facets of EI;(为了让你更好地了解你的自我认知和声誉之间的差异，你应该使用考虑到情商的多个方面的360度反馈评估)”可知，了解差异的最佳方式是采用360°反馈评估。且空后内容为方法的第二步，由此推知，空处承接上文陈述在寻找反馈时的注意事项。E选项“the key is to find one that guarantees no personal information of those giving you feedback will be leaked(关键是要找到一个能保证给你反馈的人的个人信息不会泄露的人)”符合语境，故选E项。 【38题详解】 根据后文“Your emotional intelligence is so tied up in your sense of self that being intrinsically motivated to make the effort matters more when changing long-standing habits than it does when simply learning a skill.(你的情商与你的自我意识密切相关，所以在改变长期的习惯时，内在的动力更重要，而不仅仅是学习一项技能)”可知，内在的动力很重要，不能被其他人的言论影响。再结合上文上文“ When it comes to cultivating strengths in emotional intelligence(说到培养情商方面的优势)”可知，当提到培养情商时，如果因为别人的言论而去做一件事，就是处于劣势。A选项“you’re at a huge disadvantage if you’re only interested because others said you should be(如果你只是因为别人说你应该感兴趣，你就会处于极大的劣势)”符合语境。故选A项。 【39题详解】 根据上文“That means the areas that you choose to actively work on should lie at the crossroads of the feedback you’ve gotten and the areas thot are most important to your own aspirations; (这意味着你选择积极努力的领域应该处于你所获得的反馈和对你自己的理想最重要的领域的十字路口)”可知，我们要找准我们应该积极努力的区域。D选项“understanding the impacts of your EI habits relative to your goals will keep you going over the long run(了解你的情商习惯对你的目标的影响会让你在长期的发展中保持下去)”符合语境，故选D项。 【40题详解】 根据上文“If you’re working on becoming a better listener, for example, you might decide that when you’re conversing with someone you’ll take the time to pause, listen to what they have to say, and check that you understand before you reply. Keep it specific:(例如，如果你正在努力成为一个更好的倾听者，你可能会决定当你和别人交谈时，你会花时间停下来，听他们说什么，在回答之前检查你是否理解。具体一点)”可知，我们要花时间停下来认真听别人的话，下文应陈述具体应该怎么做。C选项“you should also take every opportunity to practice the skill you are developing, no matter how small(你也应该珍惜每一个练习你正在培养的技能的机会，无论多么小)”符合语境，故选C项。 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。 When I was a graduate student, I felt too busy to exercise.

I had just dropped off a bag of clothes and a few other items I no longer wanted. When I got the opportunity, I stopped by just to look through the old records. Yes, I called them records, not CDs or MP3s, simply records, those round plastic things from ancient times that had music recorded on them. Anyway, this couple moved slowly around me in search of items they had on a list they held tight in hand. They didn’t say much, but occasionally talked with the other and picked an item up. “No, it’s not suitable for her and she dislikes it,’’ one would say and move on. My curiosity always got the best of me until I satisfied it by asking. “Can I help you find something?” I asked. They stopped, looking at me. Then the man said, “We are looking for old things that look new. Look, every new year in the past we tried to begin the year with new things. It was a goal to surround ourselves with things fresh and new so that we had new direction, new hopes and dreams for the year ahead. More importantly, we can give some gifts to Eva.” “Eva? Who is she?” I asked. “She is a lovely 10-year-old girl we adopted three years ago. Her parents died in a serious traffic accident. She always wants to be a singer,” the man replied. When hearing those words, I felt sad and said, “I’m sorry for the girl. Can you tell me how does your search work out?” The lady sighed and said, “It took a long time for us to find a special gift, but we discovered it was in vain (徒劳的).” I knew it’s difficult for the couple to solve the problem, so I decided to take action immediately. I said to the couplet can do you a favor. Please wait here for me. 注意：1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I turned around and ran out of the store. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When I returned to the store, the couple sat near the counter (柜台). ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】I turned around and ran out of the store. I knew I should go home to find something to help the couple. Then, I took a taxi. On the way home, I was thinking what I could give the girl as a gift. For me, the only hobby was music. So I thought I could give something about music as a gift, maybe a record. After arriving home, I found an old record which was given by my grandparents when I was ten years old. I believed Eva would love it. When I returned to the store, the couple sat near the counter (柜台). Seeing me, they waved to me. I ran to them with the record in my hand. The man was surprised and asked me where I had gone. I gave them the record and told them, “This is a gift from my grandparents, and now it belongs to Eva.” The couple felt happy and showed their appreciation to me. Although the record meant a lot to me, I knew it would light up the girl’s sky. I felt proud of what I had done. 【解析】 【分析】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了一对老夫妇来到一家旧货店为他们收养的女儿Eva寻找看起来像新东西的旧东西作为礼物，他们告诉作者Eva一直想当一名歌手，所以作者决定立即采取行动帮助这对夫妇。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我转身跑出了商店。”可知，第一段可描写作者思考如何帮助这对夫妇的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“当我回到店里时，那对夫妇坐在柜台旁边。”可知，第二段可描写作者把自己珍爱的唱片送给了这对夫妇并感到很骄傲。 2.续写线索：帮助这对夫妇——思考送什么礼物——决定给唱片作为礼物——他们挥手示意——男士感到惊讶——作者告知要送的礼物——他们很高兴并表示感激——作者为自己感到骄傲 3.词汇激活： 行为类 1.帮助：help/assist 2.思考：think/reflect on 3.告诉：tell sb. sth./inform sb. of sth. 情绪类 1.惊讶的：surprised/amazed 2.高兴的：happy/delighted 3.感激：appreciate/be grateful 4.对……骄傲：feel proud of/take pride in 【点睛】[高分句型1] On the way home, I was thinking what I could give the girl as a gift.（what引导宾语从句） [高分句型2] Although the record meant a lot to me, I knew it would light up the girl’s sky.（although引导让步状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 泸县五中2023年春期高一第二学月考试 英语试题 满分120分 考试用时120分钟 注意事项： 1．答题前填写好自己的姓名、班级、考号等信息 2．请将答案正确填写在答题卡上 第I卷（选择题 95分） 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What did the woman do last night?

This year, it is experimenting with Pay What You Decide (PWYD). That is, you can decide to pay for what you want or can afford, after you have attended an event.

Tom Crawford. 23. What do the four events have in common? A. Family-based. B. Science-themed. C. Picked by children. D. Filled with adventures. B How intelligent can a computer be? May be you can get the answer after reading the following passage about a newly-developed US computer program called Smarter Child and the Internet. If you ran into Smarter Child online, you would be surprised at this kid’s huge memory. It can recite many facts. For example, Smarter Child knows every baseball player in every team this season. He knows every word in the dictionary and the weather in every major city areas across the US. However, if you ask Smarter Child other questions, you get strange answers. A question about Smarter Child’s age returns, “One year, 11 days, 16 hours, 7 minutes, and 47 seconds!” Asking where he lives, “In a clean room in a high-tech building in California.” Smarter Child uses the huge information on the World Wide Web as his memory bank. To answer questions about spelling, for instance, Smarter Child goes to American Heritage Dictionary online. For the weather, he visits www.intellicast.com. Some scientists believe that by joining the many systems of the Internet, an artificial being with the combined knowledge of, say, Albert Einstein, Richard Nixon and Britney Spears could be born. However, if Smarter Child wants to think and learn on his own like the boy-computer David in the movie A. I. Artificial Intelligence, he must solve two problems. The first is that computers find it difficult to read web pages because the files are sorted in different ways. That’s why programmers need to tell Smarter Child where to look for the weather. It would be a much more difficult task to let him find it himself. Another problem is that while Smarter Child can deal with information more exactly and faster than any human, he lacks(缺少) common sense—a basic grounding of knowledge that is obvious(明显) to any young child. 24. Which of the following cannot be done by Smart Child? A. Spelling words. B. Recording facts. C. Knowing players’ names. D. Answering personal questions. 25. What do we know about www.intellicast.com? A. It is designed to help Smarter Child. B. It is about artificial intelligence. C. It helps people find Smarter Child. D. It can forecast the weather. 26. Which of the following is the most difficult for Smart Child? A. Distinguishing right behaviors from wrong ones. B. Telling how the American government is run. C. Providing a famous poem by Shakespeare. D. Dealing with information accurately. 27. What’s the best title of the text? A. Where is artificial intelligence leading us? B. Can Smart Child have critical thinking? C. How intelligent can Smart Child be? D. Does Smart Child have combined knowledge? C Seagrass meadows(海草床) are wonder plants growing beneath the sea. They feed and shelter sea life and are masterful at storing carbon. Thanks to the assistance of tiger sharks, a huge seagrass meadow in the Bahamas Banks was recently discovered, offering the world a tool to fight climate change. Seagrass has usually been detected by Earth-orbiting satellites that identify darker patches in the blue water. In this study, tiger sharks were selected as research tools due to their highly consistent associations with seagrass ecosystems. They spend 70% of their time in seagrass meadows. The team equipped eight tiger sharks with satellite tags (电子跟踪器), seven sharks with camera tags, and used a 360-degree camera on a shark for the first time ever. The data researchers collected was astonishing. The world’s largest seagrass ecosystem, measuring at least 66,900 square kilometers, has been discovered. This reflects a 41% increase from previous estimates of global seagrass. Seagrass can capture (捕获) huge quantities of carbon by photosynthesis (光合作用) and stores it on the seafloor. In terms of climate change, this is excellent news; seagrass is 35 times faster a removing carbon than tropical rainforests. When referred to global seagrass carbon stock estimates, the study indicates that seagrass in the Bahamas may contain 19.2% to 26.3% of all the carbon stored in seagrass meadows on Earth. Yet seagrass meadows are rapidly disappearing, with over 92% of meadows in the UK gone, according to the World Wildlife Fund. Scientists are collecting seeds and trying to grow new seagrass meadows through restoration projects. This new discovery offers optimism and proves the importance of the ocean for healing. The sharks led us to the seagrass ecosystem in the Bahamas, which we now know is likely the most significant blue carbon sink(蓝色碳汇) on the planet. What this discovery shows us is that ocean exploration and research are essential for a healthy future. The untapped potential of the ocean is limitless. These meadows can be protected and can be replicated (复制,仿制), offering hope for climate change around the globe. 28. Why were tiger sharks chosen as research tools? A. They are more flexible than other sea animals. B. They can quickly adjust themselves to the deep sea. C. They have a strong connection with seagrass ecosystems. D. They can be easily equipped with experimental devices. 29. What are the numbers in paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The decline of global seagrass meadows. B. The impact of climate change on sea life. C. The rapid increase in the amount of carbon on Earth. D. The potential value of the world’s largest seagrass ecosystem. 30. What are scientists doing to protect seagrass? A. Planting more seagrass meadows. B. Developing new technology to collect seeds. C. Mapping the distribution of seagrass meadows. D. Encouraging people to join in restoration projects. 31. Which could be the best title for the text? A. The New Way of Removing Carbon B. The Significance of Ocean Exploration C. A New Discovery: World’s Largest Seagrass Meadow D. Tiger Sharks: Scientists’ Essential Helper to Study Climate D In the coming era of budget(预算) cuts to education, distance learning could become a common thing. The appeal to those in charge of education budgets to trade teachers for technology is so strong that they tend to ignore the disadvantages of distance learning. School facilities are expensive to build and maintain, and teachers are expensive to employ. It’s true that online classes do not require buildings and each class can host hundreds of people, which can result in greater savings, but moving away from a traditional classroom in which a living, breathing human being teaches and interacts with students daily would be a disaster. Physically attending school has hidden benefits: getting up every morning interacting with peers, and building relationships with teachers are important skills to cultivate(培养) in young people. Moreover, schools are more than simple places of traditional learning. They are also places that provide meals, places where students receive mental help and other support. Those policy-makers are often fascinated by the latest technology in education and its potential to transform education overnight. But online education does not allow a teacher to keep a struggling student after class and offer help. Educational videos may deliver academic content, but they are unable to make eye contact or assess a student’s level of engagement. Distance education will never match the personal teaching in a traditional classroom. In their first 18 years of life, American children spend only 9% of their time in school. Yet teachers are expected to prepare them to be responsible citizens, cultivate their social skills, encourage successful time management, and enhance their capacity to compete in a competitive job market. Given these expectations, schools should not become permanently “remote”. The power of the classroom is rooted in the qualities of the people gathered in the same place, at the same time, including their nature, empathy, devotion and so on. Technology, no matter how advanced, should simply be a tool of a good teacher. 32. What is one possible benefit of students attending school physically? A. Forming the habit of getting up early. B. Eating nutritionally well-balanced meals. C. Growing into living and breathing human beings. D. Developing relationships with peers and teachers. 33. What does the author think of the latest technology in education? A. It may reduce face-to-face interaction. B. It may make many teachers jobless. C It may add to student’s financial burden. D. It may revolutionize classroom teaching. 34. What does the author say teachers are expected to do? A. To enhance student’s leadership capacity. B. To teach students skills in applying for jobs. C. To enable students to adapt to the changes in life. D. To prepare students to be competitive in the future. 35. Why couldn’t technology replace a good teacher? A. It lacks humanity. B. It can’t meet personal needs. C. It is still not advanced. D. It can’t track students’ growth. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） As the concept of emotional intelligence (EI) has gone global, we’ve watched professionals fail as they try to improve their emotional intelligence because they either don’t know where to focus their efforts or they haven’t understood how to improve these skills on a practical level. In our work consulting with companies and coaching leaders, we have found that if you’re looking to develop particular EI strengths, it helps to consider areas for improvement others have identified along with the goals you want to achieve, and then to actively build habits in those areas rather than simply relying on understanding them conceptually. The first step is to get a sense of how your self-perception (how you see yourself) differs from your reputation (how others see you); ____36____. For example, most of us think that we’re good listeners, but very often that’s really not the case. Without this external reality check, it will be difficult for you to identify the ways that your actions affect your performance. Getting feedback from others can also provide proof of the necessity of shifting our behaviour and motivation to do so. To give you the best sense of where the differences lie between your self-perception and reputation, you should use a 360-degree feedback assessment that takes into account the multiple facets of EI; ____37____. Secondly, when you get your feedback from an assessment, let that inform what you want to improve. But also consider what your goals are. When it comes to cultivating strengths in emotional intelligence, ____38____. Your emotional intelligence is so tied up in your sense of self that being intrinsically motivated to make the effort matters more when changing long-standing habits than it does when simply learning a skill. That means the areas that you choose to actively work on should lie at the crossroads of the feedback you’ve gotten and the areas that are most important to your own aspirations; ____39____as you do the work of strengthening your emotional intelligence. Once you’ve determined which EI skills you want to focus on, identify specific actions that you’ll take. If you’re working on becoming a better listener, for example, you might decide that when you’re conversing with someone you’ll take the time to pause, listen to what they have to say, and check that you understand before you reply. Keep it specific:____40____. By starting to change your routine reactions, you’ll be well on your way to figuring out the old habits that aren’t serving you well and transforming them into new, improved ones that do. A. you’re at a huge disadvantage if you’re only interested because others said you should be B. bearing your goals in mind is so helpful to improve the positive impact of your current EI habits C. you should also take every opportunity to practice the skill you are developing, no matter how small D. understanding the impacts of your EI habits relative to your goals will keep you going over the long run E. the key is to find one that guarantees no personal information of those giving you feedback will be leaked F. how others see you will to some extent decide how you see others and help you become a good listener G. this is true because we can be blind to how we express and read the emotional components of our interactions 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。 When I was a graduate student, I felt too busy to exercise.

I had just dropped off a bag of clothes and a few other items I no longer wanted. When I got the opportunity, I stopped by just to look through the old records. Yes, I called them records, not CDs or MP3s, simply records, those round plastic things from ancient times that had music recorded on them. Anyway, this couple moved slowly around me in search of items they had on a list they held tight in hand. They didn’t say much, but occasionally talked with the other and picked an item up. “No, it’s not suitable for her and she dislikes it,’’ one would say and move on. My curiosity always got the best of me until I satisfied it by asking. “Can I help you find something?” I asked. They stopped, looking at me. Then the man said, “We are looking for old things that look new. Look, every new year in the past we tried to begin the year with new things. It was a goal to surround ourselves with things fresh and new so that we had new direction, new hopes and dreams for the year ahead. More importantly, we can give some gifts to Eva.” “Eva? Who is she?” I asked. “She is a lovely 10-year-old girl we adopted three years ago. Her parents died in a serious traffic accident. She always wants to be a singer,” the man replied. When hearing those words, I felt sad and said, “I’m sorry for the girl. Can you tell me how does your search work out?” The lady sighed and said, “It took a long time for us to find a special gift, but we discovered it was in vain (徒劳的).” I knew it’s difficult for the couple to solve the problem, so I decided to take action immediately. I said to the couplet can do you a favor. Please wait here for me. 注意：1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I turned around and ran out of the store. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When I returned to the store, the couple sat near the counter (柜台). ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
