B I was bom missing my left hand,yet I learned to adapt.One of my earliest memories is my father trying to teach me to tie my shoes.I gently pushed him aside and figured out a way to do it with one hand.My parents tried to make me feel ordinary,but the reality was inescapable. When I was 13,an age when kids are already very self-conscious,I remembered getting on the bus and one of the other kids stared just a little too long at my left arm.I felt a sudden urge to hide my hand.I had decided that if people knew about my missing hand,they would not want to be around me anymore. Making friends was challenging enough,but finding love was particularly discouraging.As I started dating,I made efforts to hide my difference.Eventually we'd reach a point in the relationship where I knew I had to tell the truth.I'd think over the "big reveal"and build it up in my mind for days.When I had gathered the courage,I let out my secret over the phone and hung up in a panic.Even when I received a call,I couldn't face discussing it,relying on the answering machine. Everyone I shared this with-friend,co-worker or boyfriend-said kind things like,"You shouldn't hide it."or "It's no big deal."But their words didn't matter to me.The only words that really mattered were the ones I was telling myself,that story of how I was unworthy of love. At 28,tired of hiding,I met someone special.For the first time,I allowed someone to really hold, look at,take pictures of,touch and love my limb-love me. That relationship ended after ten years,but I kept the self-love and compassion I learned from it. From that point on,I saw my difference as something unique and beautiful about me,something that should be shown,not hidden. 英语第2页（共8页） 24.How did the author tie her shoes? A.By expecting quick success. B.By escaping from tying tries. C.By finding her own method. D.By benefiting from father's aid. 25.How did the author feel after sharing her difference? A.Relieved. B.Unmoved. C.Unclear. D.Delighted. 26.What's the author like after the ten-year relationship ended? A.She had a positive attitude. B.She hid her difference again. C.She became more dependent. D.She stopped making friends. 27.Which is the best title for the text? A.Dealing with Self-Consciousness B.The Role of Courage in Life C.Overcoming Social Prejudice D.The Acceptance of Uniqueness C Thirty years ago,while working on a right whale research project in the Bay of Fundy,Canada,I witnessed a remarkable sight.A male right whale with mud on its head,indicating it had been feeding at the bottom,came up to breathe and rest.Just before diving again,it let out a huge mass of poop( )The water was filled with poop that looked like red floating bricks and had a strong,unpleasant smell.If it got on your clothes,you'd have to discard them as it couldn't be washed out. This initial encounter later inspired me to conduct global search for whale poop,taking me from Iceland to Mexico,Alaska,and Hawaii.Right whale poop has a particularly strong and awful smell,but I've come to appreciate it.Whale poop provides valuable insights.It shows what whales eat,their hormones,if they're ready to reproduce,how stressed they are,what's in their gut(),and their family tree.It also helps us assess the level of mercury and pollution in the ocean. This experience set the path for my research career.Two years after seeing whale poop for the first time,I took an ocean ecology class and learned about the biological pump.Phytoplankton() grows near the ocean surface and through the food chain,nutrients can sink to the deep sea.However,I realized that right whales,which feed at depth and poop at the surface,likely bring nutrients like iron and so on back up.This led to the concept of the "whale pump",which does the opposite of the biological pump by pumping nutrients back to the surface.These nutrients can be absorbed by phytoplankton and flow through the ocean food chain.This is important because some people in Japan, Norway,and Iceland think whales eat "our fish"and cause fish numbers to drop.The whale pump shows that the relationship is more complex and that whales might actually increase fish populations. Whale poop not only helps us understand the present ocean but also gives us a look into the past when there were more whales.Restoring whales and their nutrient pathways could help make the ocean more diverse. 28.What does the underlined word "discard"in paragraph 1 mean? A.Abandon. ·B.Wash. C.Keep. D.Appreciate. 益语第3页（共8页） 29.Why does the author appreciate whale poop? A.It provides a remarkable sight. B.It makes the author travel a lot. C.It looks like red floating bricks. D.It makes precious insights available. 30.What is the effect of the "whale pump"? A.Nutrients float to the surface. B.Fisheries experience a decline. C.The ocean food chain is threatened. D.The environment is polluted severely. 31.What is the purpose of the text? A.To describe the abnormal behavior of right whales. B.To explain the ecological importance of whale poop. C.To argue against the idea that whales harm fisheries. D.To discuss how we can understand the present ocean. D A Queensland University of Technology(QUT)research team has taken inspiration from the brains at of insects and animals for more energy-efficient robotic navigation. 装 The research,led by Dr Hussaini,along with Professor Milford and Dr Fischer from the QUT t Centre for Robotics,was published in IEEE Transactions on Robotics.They came up with a novel place recognition algorithm()using Spiking Neural Networks(SNNs). n "SNNs are artificial neural networks that imitate how biological brains process information using t brief,separate signals,much like how neurons()in animal brains communicate,"Dr Hussaini r said."These networks are particularly well-suited for neuromorphic hardware-specialized computer ir hardware that copies biological neural system-enabling faster processing and significantly reduced energy consumption. st Modem robots still struggle to navigate and operate in complex,unknown environments.They also ) often rely on AI-based navigation systems that need a lot of computing power and energy for training. I Dr Fischer said,"Animals are really good at getting around in large,dynamic environments.They n do it efficiently and reliably."He thinks this research is a step closer to making navigation systems e inspired by biology.These systems might one day be better than today's conventional approaches. y The system developed by the QUT team uses small neural network parts to recognize specific places from images.These parts were put together to make a group of spiking networks to create a navigation system that can learn to move around in large environments. "Using a series of images instead of single pictures enabled an improvement of 41 percent in place st recognition accuracy,allowing the system to adapt to appearance changes over time and across different n seasons and weather conditions,"Professor Milford said. "This research can help make more efficient and reliable navigation systems for autonomous robots in energy-limited environments.It's especially good for things like space exploration and disaster recovery,where using energy well and being quick to respond are critical,Dr Hussaini said. 英语第4页（共8页） 32.What does the QUT research focus on? A.Testing artificial intelligence systems. B.Imitating AI-based navigation systems. C.Managing existing robotic navigation systems. D.Creating bio-inspired robotic navigation systems. 33.What is a key advantage of SNNs? A.Requiring low energy. B.Conducting object detection. C.Producing suitable hardware. D.Processing separate information. 34.What can be inferred about neural network parts? A.They analyze environmental sounds. B.They assess conventional approaches. C.They enable accurate place recognition. D.They measure different weather conditions. 35.What's the last paragraph mainly about? A.The significance of the research. B.The advantage of the system. C.The efficiency of the navigation. D.The performance of the application. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Progress in life is all about reinvention.Whenever you want to change,reinvention is what allows you to continue exploring new parts of yourself.36 See yourself outside yourself. Imagine you are a sculptor.A sculptor looks at his or her piece of stone and endlessly questions new ways to shape it.And if he or she thinks of something to change,there is no emotional attachment. 37 This is how you need to see yourself-as a work of art,always in progress. Practice every day,no matter what. Change is not something you do some days and then take a break from other days.38 It requires daily devotion,to the point where that new habit takes the place of an old one and no longer requires conscious effort. Surround yourself with people who will tell you the truth. If everyone around you is telling you "yes",then you have a serious problem.You need people who are going to challenge and question you.39 Feedback is essential for personal growth. 40 You will never become the person you want to be by continuing to be the person you currently are. Growth's only request is that you step out of your comfort zone.That's it.Unless you are willing to take that risk and to take that uncomfortable step into the unknown,you will forever stay exactly where you are. A.They just do it. B.Be what you are. C.It is a shift in lifestyle. D.Be ready to take risks. E.Instead,like an artist,just get to work. F.You need to look for a way to reinvent yourself. G.You need people who won't be afraid to tell you the truth. 英语第5页（共8页） 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，从短文后各题所给的A,BC和D四个选项中，选出可以填人空白处的最佳选项。 A high school friend can be a life-long friend.On Dec.14,1973,several women gathered to celebrate an early 41.But that wasn't the 42 of the friend group.By the evening's end,they decided they should meet again the following December.And the next one.And the next one.

The event was just around the corner when they received unexpected news-a competitive group, the Nature Conservation Club whose leader was John,was hosting a similar event on the same day in a nearby park.Concem arose among the Green Earth Society members as they realized this could split the attendees and reduce the impact of both initiatives. "We can't change the date now,"expressed Sarah,a dedicated member known for her creative solutions."But we can't let our causes suffer either."Mary,a thoughtful soul in the group,weighed silently,recognizing the importance of unity in such situations.Driven by her determination to make a difference,Mary tried hard to find a solution.She spent hours researching ways to cooperate with the Nature Conservation Club,understanding that together they could achieve far more than apart. The following day,Mary presented her proposal to the Green Earth Society."What if we combine our events?"she suggested."By combining our efforts,we can increase our messages,attract more participants,and ensure both environmental causes receive the support they deserve."The members exchanged uncertain looks,unsure of how the opponent club would respond."It's a challenging move, Mary,but how will we convince them?"questioned Mark,a doubtful member.Mary,with a firm resolve,replied,"I'll speak with their leader and illustrate the advantages of a cooperative event." Despite the challenges that lay ahead,Mary's belief in the power of cooperation never changed.She was determined to bridge the gap,unite the two groups,and create a stronger front for environmental advocacy in their community. 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。 The members approved of letting Mary lead this effort.
