People with fixed mindsets believe that: ● Skill, intelligence and talents are natural. ● Failure is shameful and should be avoided. ● Some people are naturally good at things while others not. ● You are not in control of your abilities. have a desire to learn, so tend to: — Embrace challenges. — Persist in the face of setbacks. — See effort as the path to mastery. — Learn from criticism. — Find lessons and inspiration in the success of others. have a desire to look smart, so tend to: — Avoid challenges. — Give up easily. — See effort as fruitless or worse. — Ignore useful negative feedback — Feel threatened by the success of others. As a result, they reach ever-higher levels of achievement. As a result, they may stay at the same level early and achieve less than their full potential. Change can be tough, but I’ve never heard anyone say it wasn’t worth it. Did changing to a growth mindset solve all my problems? No. But I know that I have a different life because of it — a richer one. 1. What is a person with a growth mindset likely to say? A. “If I win, I’ll be somebody; if I lose, I’ll be nobody.” B. “Challenges help me grow and develop new skills.” C. “To be good at math, you need to be naturally gifted.” D. “I don’t need to try because my abilities are set and won’t change.” 2. Which of the following type of people are most likely to have fixed mindsets? A. Adaptable. B. Straightforward. C. Resistant. D. Intelligent. 3 What is the intention of the book “Mindset”? A. To tell readers that two different mindsets lead to different results. B. To persuade people to learn to change to enjoy a more fruitful life. C. To illustrate that people with different mindsets hold different beliefs. D. To help readers believe people act differently when facing challenges. 【答案】1. B 2. C 3. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文，主要介绍了《Mindset》一书，此处阐述了成长型思维（Growth Mindset）与固定型思维（Fixed Mindset）之间的区别，以及它们对个人成长和成就的影响。 【1题详解】 推理判断题。根据左边GROWTH MINDSET一栏中People with growth mindsets believe that:部分的“You have the capacity to learn and grow your skills.(你有能力学习和提高自己的技能。)”和have a desire to learn, so tend to:部分“Embrace challenges.(接受挑战。)”可知，一个拥有成长型思维的人认为可能会说“挑战帮助我成长，培养新技能”。故选B。 【2题详解】 推理判断题。根据右边FIXED MINDSET一栏中People with fixed mindsets believe that:部分“Skill, intelligence and talents are natural.(技巧、智慧和才能是天生的。)”可知，固定型思维的人觉得技巧、智慧和才能是天生的，他们对通过学习而获得这些是抵抗的，再根据倒数第二栏里的“As a result, they may stay at the same level early and achieve less than their full potential.(因此，他们可能会在早期就停滞不前，无法实现自己的全部潜力。)”可知，他们不愿意进步或改变，因此抵抗变化的人可能是固定型思维的人，故选C。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后的“Change can be tough, but I’ve never heard anyone say it wasn’t worth it. Did changing to a growth mindset solve all my problems? No. But I know that I have a different life because of it — a richer one.(改变是艰难的，但我从没听过有人说不值得。转变成长型思维模式解决了我所有的问题吗？没有。但我知道，因为它，我的生活变得不一样了——更丰富了。)”可知，《Mindset》”这本书的目的是说服人们学会改变，才能享受更富有成效的人生。故选B。 B The 2024 Nobel Prize in Physics are awarded to two researchers on Oct. 8, for their foundational discoveries and inventions in the field of artificial neural (神经的) networks. Though artificial neural networks are modeled on biological neural networks, both researchers’ work drew on statistical physics, therefore winning the prize in physics. The physicist John Hopfield used ideas from physics to study a particular type of neural network, now called the Hopfield network (HNN), which explained how neuron systems interact to produce stable memories. During the 1980s, Geoffrey Hinton and his colleagues built on Hopfield’s ideas to create a new class of model. Unlike Hopfield networks that could store patterns and correct errors in patterns, the new model could generate new patterns, thereby planting the seeds of the modern generative AI revolution. Hinton was also part of another breakthrough that happened in the 1980s, which is a key algorithm (算法) that makes it possible to select weights based on the performance of the network on a training data set. However, it remained challenging to train artificial neural networks with many layers. In the 2000s, Hinton and his co-workers cleverly discovered an approach, and the deep learning revolution began. The Nobel Prize in Physics shows how ideas from physics contributed to the rise of deep learning. Now deep learning has begun to pay back to physics by enabling accurate and fast simulations (模拟) of systems ranging from molecules and materials all the way to the entire Earth’s climate. By awarding the Nobel Prize in Physics to Hopfield and Hinton, the prize committee has signaled its hope in humanity’s potential to use these advances to promote human well-being and to build a sustainable world. 4. For what were the two scientists awarded the Noble Prize in Physics? A. They invented artificial neural networks. B. They discovered biological neural networks. C. They both are excellent experts in the field of statistical physics. D. They used methods in physics to study artificial neural networks. 5. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A. John Hopfield’s devotion and achievement. B. How modern generative AI revolution began. C. Geoffrey Hinton’s research on neural network. D. The cooperation between John Hopfield and Geoffrey Hinton. 6. What has led to the deep learning revolution according to the passage? A. Finding a key algorithm which could select weights. B. Creating a new model that could generate new patterns. C. Finding a way to train multi-layer artificial neural networks. D. Discovering an approach to training artificial neural networks. 7. According to the passage, what is the influence of awarding the prize to Hopfield and Hinton? A. More people will be inspired to study physics. B. Simulations of systems will be faster and more accurate. C. People will employ the development to benefit the Earth. D. Deep learning will play a more important role in our life. 【答案】4. D 5. B 6. C 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道，主要介绍了两位科学家因为将物理学方法应用于人工神经网络研究取得开创性发现和发明而获得诺贝尔物理学奖。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。 根据文章第一段“The 2024 Nobel Prize in Physics are awarded to two researchers on Oct. 8, for their foundational discoveries and inventions in the field of artificial neural (神经的) networks. Though artificial neural networks are modeled on biological neural networks, both researchers’ work drew on statistical physics, therefore winning the prize in physics.(10月8日，2024年诺贝尔物理学奖被授予两位研究人员，以表彰他们在人工神经网络领域的基础性发现和发明。尽管人工神经网络是以生物神经网络为模型的，但两位研究人员的工作都借鉴了统计物理学，因此获得了物理学奖。)”可知，他们获奖的原因是用物理学的方法研究人工神经网络。故选D。 【5题详解】 主旨大意题。 根据文章第二段“The physicist John Hopfield used ideas from physics to study a particular type of neural network, now called the Hopfield network (HNN), which explained how neuron systems interact to produce stable memories. During the 1980s, Geoffrey Hinton and his colleagues built on Hopfield’s ideas to create a new class of model. Unlike Hopfield networks that could store patterns and correct errors in patterns, the new model could generate new patterns, thereby planting the seeds of the modern generative AI revolution.(物理学家John Hopfield运用物理学理论来研究一种特定的神经网络，现在被称为霍普菲尔德网络（Hopfield Network，HNN），该网络解释了神经元系统如何相互作用以产生稳定的记忆。在20世纪80年代，Geoffrey Hinton及其同事在霍普菲尔德理论的基础上，创建了一类新的模型。与能够存储模式并纠正模式中错误的霍普菲尔德网络不同，新模型能够生成新的模式，从而为现代生成式人工智能（AI）革命埋下了种子。)”可知，本段主要讲述了现代生成式人工智能革命是如何开始的。故选B。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。 根据文章第三段的“However, it remained challenging to train artificial neural networks with many layers. In the 2000s, Hinton and his co-workers cleverly discovered an approach, and the deep learning revolution began.(然而，训练多层人工神经网络仍然具有挑战性。在21世纪，Hinton和他的同事们聪明地发现了一种方法，深度学习革命开始了。)”可知，找到了一种训练多层人工神经网络的方法导致了深度学习革命。故选C。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。 根据文章最后一段“By awarding the Nobel Prize in Physics to Hopfield and Hinton, the prize committee has signaled its hope in humanity’s potential to use these advances to promote human well-being and to build a sustainable world.(通过将诺贝尔物理学奖授予Hopfield和Hinton，评奖委员会表达了对人类利用这些进步来促进人类福祉和构建一个可持续世界的潜力的期望。)”可知，将诺贝尔物理学奖授予Hopfield和Hinton可能会产生的影响是希望人们将利用这一发展造福地球。故选C。 C Jackdaws (寒鸦) are the smallest member of the crow family. They often live in a crowd. Indeed, when cold weather comes, they gather in the hundreds (and sometimes thousands) every evening so that they can sleep in the same place. If you’ve ever heard jackdaws during their evening gatherings and morning departures, you’ll know they are not quiet birds. Despite being fairly low-volume during the day, they are really loud on either side of their night-time get-togethers. Why might this be? A team of the Cornish Jackdaw Project set out to determine why jackdaws are so noisy before they depart from their sleeping spot. The team’s theory was that the morning calls might be a jackdaw version of “voting”. The researchers suspected that each individual’s call might count as an “I’m in!”. When a certain amount of “I’m in!”s are called —and so a certain volume of noise is reached -the group might then depart as a unit. To test this idea, the researchers artificially increased the level of calls during the jackdaws’ natural morning calls. Their expectation was that, if jackdaws really are “voting with their voice” to decide when to depart the sleeping site, artificially adding calls would make them leave earlier than they naturally would have done. Subsequent experiments confirmed their expectation. The team therefore showed that jackdaws use their calls as a sort of voting system. You might wonder why this happens. The researchers suggest that individual jackdaws benefit from the voting system because they are less at risk of being killed and they can get more access to social information — such as where to find food. So the loud calls of jackdaws in the morning are therefore not the pure chaos it sounds like. If you are ever being driven mad by the sound in the morning, you can find comfort in the fact that the louder they get, the sooner they will leave you in peace. 8. What aspect of jackdaws confused scientists? A. Their strong team spirit. B. Their preference for noisy habitats. C. Their collective sleeping habit. D. Their unusual calling behavior. 9. What happened to the jackdaws when artificial calls were added? A. They stopped calling together. B. They left their sleeping spot earlier. C. They became noisier and more active. D. They changed their sleeping location. 10. What does the voting system mean to individual jackdaws? A. A signal of seeking food. B. A strategy for better survival. C A way to attract potential partners. D. A method of displaying social skills. 11. What can be the best title for the text? A. Jackdaws are Noise Makers. B. Jackdaws Have a Complex Voting System. C. Jackdaws ‘Vote’ to Make a Group Decision. D. Jackdaws ‘Vote’ to Choose Their Group Leaders. 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了寒鸦在离开睡眠地点前会发出大量的嘎吱声，研究人员认为这是它们用声音投票决定离开的方式。研究还发现，这种投票系统对于寒鸦个体来说有益，它们能更好地避免危险和获取社交信息。因此，寒鸦在早晨的大声叫喊并不是纯粹的混乱，它们的叫声越大，离开的时间就越早。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Despite being fairly low-volume during the day, they are really loud on either side of their night-time get-togethers. Why might this be?(尽管白天的声音很小，但在晚上聚集的时候，它们的声音非常大。为什么会这样呢？)”可知，让科学家们困惑的是它们不寻常的叫声。故选D。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“The researchers suspected that each individual’s call might count as an “I’m in!”. When a certain amount of “I’m in!” s are called —and so a certain volume of noise is reached -the group might then depart as a unit.(研究人员怀疑，每只寒鸦的呼叫都可能被视为“我加入!”当一定量的“我加入!”当噪音达到一定的音量时，这群乌鸦就会作为一个整体离开。)”以及第三段中“To test this idea, the researchers artificially increased the level of calls during the jackdaws’ natural morning calls. (为了验证这一观点，研究人员人为地增加了寒鸦自然鸣叫时的叫声水平)”以及本段中“Their expectation was that, if jackdaws really are “voting with their voice” to decide when to depart the sleeping site, artificially adding calls would make them leave earlier than they naturally would have done. (他们的预期是，如果寒鸦真的“用声音投票”来决定何时离开睡觉的地方，人为地增加叫声会使它们比自然情况下更早离开。)”可知，研究人员人为地增加了寒鸦自然鸣叫时的叫声是为了验证之前提出的观点，即当一定量的“我加入!”噪音达到一定的音量时，这群乌鸦就会作为一个整体离开。故当人为地增加了寒鸦自然鸣的叫声时，乌鸦比自然情况下更早离开离开了睡觉的地方。故选B。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“You might wonder why this happens. The researchers suggest that individual jackdaws benefit from the voting system because they are less at risk of being killed and they can get more access to social information — such as where to find food.(你可能想知道为什么会这样。研究人员认为，个别寒鸦从投票系统中受益，因为它们被杀死的风险更小，而且它们可以获得更多的社会信息——比如在哪里可以找到食物。)”可知，个别寒鸦从投票系统中受益，因为它们被杀死的风险更小，即为一个更好生存的策略。故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中“Despite being fairly low-volume during the day, they are really loud on either side of their night-time get-togethers. Why might this be?(尽管白天的声音很小，但在晚上聚集的时候，它们的声音非常大。为什么会这样呢？)”以及通读全文，文章回答了寒鸦在晚上聚会时为什么会发出非常大的声音即寒鸦在离开睡眠地点前会发出大量的嘎吱声，研究人员认为这是它们用声音投票决定离开的方式。C选项“Jackdaws ‘Vote’ to Make a Group Decision.( 寒鸦“投票”做出集体决定。)”概括文章内容，符合文章标题。故选C。 D At the Game Awards (TGA) 2024, Black Myth: Wukong achieved several “breakthrough” in Chinese gaming history. This Chinese hit video game has taken the gaming world by storm, selling more than 10 million copies across all platforms in just three days after its release. The game is inspired by the classic Chinese novel Journey to the West. In it, players take the role of the Destined One, setting off for adventures to collect six Relics that once belonged to Sun Wukong and challenge the Celestial Court. Drawing on a rich heritage of nearly 1,000 years of Chinese culture, the game’s storyline and characters have proven difficult to understand for foreign players. For instance, a player shared on social media that their lack of familiarity with Journey to the West led to them consistently missing hidden treasures, finally resulting in repeated failures during a boss fight in Chapter 2. Meanwhile, some players feel overwhelmed by names like Erlang Shen and Lingxuzi, which can be difficult to pronounce for those unfamiliar with pinyin. To bridge these cultural divides, one enthusiast wrote a 200-page outline detailing Sun Wukong’s abilities across all 100 chapters of Journey to the West. Many others immersed themselves in the story by checking out TV shows, anime and online forums. Through this process, western players have not only improved their gaming skills but also developed a deeper appreciation for Sun Wukong and Journey to the West. “Although many people might compare Sun Wukong to Western superheroes, I believe they are different,” said Patrick from the US. “Sun Wukong has a carefree and independent nature, unlimited by the need to set a good example for others like Spider-Man, who by contrast follows principles like ’with great power comes great responsibility’.” Journey to the West offers a comprehensive narrative that covers a very dangerous journey, numerous encounters and the exploration of various cultures, making it a rich source for diverse storytelling types and cultural backgrounds. Perhaps these are some of the key reasons why Journey to the West has been translated into over a dozen languages, with more than 60 versions available worldwide. 12. What is the Destined One in paragraph 2? A. The fictional main character of the game. B. The nickname of Sun Wukong in the game. C. One of the adventures to collect the six Relics. D. One of the six Relics belonging to the Celestial Court. 13. What does the underlined word “bridge” in paragraph 4 most likely mean? A. Take control of. B. Get rid of. C. Lose track of. D. Take advantage of. 14. What can be learned about the game from the passage? A. It has gradually gained popularity among players worldwide. B. Its original character Sun Wukong is similar to western superheroes. C. It is hard for foreign players due to their unfamiliarity with Chinese culture. D. It has been translated into many languages with numerous versions available worldwide. 15. What does the text mainly talk about? A. A Chinese hit video game and its original novel Journey to the West. B. Reasons behind the success of Chinese video game Black Myth: Wukong. C. The benefits Black Myth: Wukong brings to the spread of Chinese culture. D. The cultural impact and western players’ reception of a Chinese hit video game. 【答案】12. A 13. B 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了中国热门视频游戏《黑神话：悟空》的文化影响及西方玩家的反响。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第二段中“In it, players take the role of the Destined One, setting off for adventures to collect six Relics that once belonged to Sun Wukong and challenge the Celestial Court. (在游戏中，玩家扮演Destined One，踏上冒险之旅，收集曾属于孙悟空的六件法宝，并向天庭发起挑战)”可知，Destined One指的是游戏中的虚构主角。故选A。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。由文章第三段中“Drawing on a rich heritage of nearly 1,000 years of Chinese culture, the game’s storyline and characters have proven difficult to understand for foreign players. (这款游戏的故事情节和角色根植于近1000年的中国丰富文化遗产，对于外国玩家来说理解起来颇具难度)”和第四段中“To bridge these cultural divides, one enthusiast wrote a 200-page outline detailing Sun Wukong’s abilities across all 100 chapters of Journey to the West. Many others immersed themselves in the story by checking out TV shows, anime and online forums. (为了bridge这些文化鸿沟，一位爱好者撰写了一份200页的大纲，详细阐述了孙悟空在《西游记》100章中的能力。许多其他人则通过观看电视剧、动漫和参与在线论坛来沉浸于这个故事)”可知，游戏的故事情节和人物对外国玩家来说很难理解。一位爱好者撰写了一份200页的大纲，详细阐述了孙悟空在《西游记》100章中的能力，是为了弥合文化鸿沟，消除文化障碍。bridge在此处意为“消除（文化障碍）”，与选项B“Get rid of (除去)”意思相符。故选B。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第三段中“Drawing on a rich heritage of nearly 1,000 years of Chinese culture, the game’s storyline and characters have proven difficult to understand for foreign players. (这款游戏的故事情节和角色根植于近1000年的中国丰富文化遗产，对于外国玩家来说理解起来颇具难度)”可知，这款游戏因为外国玩家对中国文化的不熟悉而对他们来说很难。故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是由文章第一段“At the Game Awards (TGA) 2024, Black Myth: Wukong achieved several “breakthrough” in Chinese gaming history.

His mother was very poor. Although she worked hard, she could only manage both ends meet. He had a little sister about two years old. He wanted to help his mother, for she could not always earn enough to buy food for her little family. And as the only man of the family, he had been preparing himself to take his responsibility. He once wanted to quit school to find some kind of job to lessen his mother’s burden, but was seriously refused. One day, on the way home after school, Henry spotted a wallet lying under a pile of leaves. He opened it carefully, finding it was full of money! But it was dark now, and the empty street in the cold winter saw on one around. Henry might have kept all the money, for no one saw him when he found it. But his mother had taught him to be honest, and never to keep what did not belong to him. So he decided to wait in the freezing wind. After what seemed a century later, there finally came back the worried and hurrying owner . The man was more than delighted to get back the lost wallet. “It was such a surprise!” the man said, “ I held no hope for it at all. Well, boy, that’s what you deserve for your good deed.” The man gave him a dollar as thanks and a praise for his honesty. How to deal with the money? The candy? A new pair of pants? Or other things he was longing for so much? Wait, next month was mother’s birthday…Yes, Henry got the idea and knew what he should do and he would do it secretly. 注意： 1.文章开头已给出，不计入总词数; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 With the dollar he bought a box, three brushes, and some blacking(鞋油). ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ He smiled and handed the money to his mother. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】With the dollar he bought a box, three brushes and some blacking(鞋油).

He brought all the money home little by little, hiding it in a pocket under the bed. Day after day, the pocket became heavier and heavier and Henry can’t help wondering what a surprise his mother would get. He smiled and handed the money to his mother. Too shocked, she could hardly spoke a word. “Where did you get the money?” She was so angry, “I told you to be honest.” “Mom, I earned it myself.”Then Henry told his mother what he did after school the whole month. On hearing this, she was deeply touched and hugged Henry tightly, dropping a tear of joy. “Happy birthday!” the little girl came ,waving hands towards them happily. All of them burst into a laughter, which was such a warm scene! 【解析】 【导语】文章以人物为线索展开，讲述了Henry这个善良、有责任感的男孩，在家庭经济困难的情况下，依然坚守诚实品质的故事。Henry的父亲因病去世，家庭经济陷入困境，母亲努力工作也只能勉强维持生计。作为家中唯一的男性，Henry想要帮助母亲减轻负担，但辍学参加工作的提议被母亲拒绝。一天，Henry在回家的路上发现了一个装满钱的钱包，虽然当时无人看见，但他选择等待失主归来，展现了高度的诚实和责任感。最终，失主找回钱包，对Henry的诚实表示赞赏，并给了他一美元作为感谢。Henry决定了如何使用这笔钱。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段首句内容“他用一美元买了一盒鞋油、三把刷子和一些黑色鞋油。”可知，第一段可描写Henry买了这些东西做了什么。 ②由第二段首句内容“他微笑着把钱递给妈妈。”可知，第二段可描写妈妈的反应以及Henry的解释。 2.续写线索：擦鞋油赚钱——期待妈妈的反应——感到惊讶——解释——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 注意到：notice/pay attention to 得到：get/obtain 拥抱：hug/embrace 情绪类 生气的：angry/furious 感动的：touched/moved 【点睛】[高分句型1] He was so polite that people soon began to notice him, and to let him black their boots.（运用了so…that…引导结果状语从句） [高分句型2] Then Henry told his mother what he did after school the whole month.（运用了what引导宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 绵阳中学2024级高一上期选拔测试 英语试题 考试时间：120分 试卷满分：150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二个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷相应位置。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟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.

People with fixed mindsets believe that: ● Skill, intelligence and talents are natural. ● Failure is shameful and should be avoided. ● Some people are naturally good at things while others not. ● You are not in control of your abilities have a desire to learn, so tend to: — Embrace challenges. — Persist in the face of setbacks. — See effort as the path to mastery. — Learn from criticism. — Find lessons and inspiration in the success of others have a desire to look smart, so tend to: — Avoid challenges. — Give up easily. — See effort as fruitless or worse. — Ignore useful negative feedback — Feel threatened by the success of others. As a result, they reach ever-higher levels of achievement. As a result, they may stay at the same level early and achieve less than their full potential. Change can be tough, but I’ve never heard anyone say it wasn’t worth it. Did changing to a growth mindset solve all my problems? No. But I know that I have a different life because of it — a richer one. 1. What is a person with a growth mindset likely to say? A. “If I win, I’ll be somebody; if I lose, I’ll be nobody.” B. “Challenges help me grow and develop new skills.” C. “To be good at math, you need to be naturally gifted.” D. “I don’t need to try because my abilities are set and won’t change.” 2. Which of the following type of people are most likely to have fixed mindsets? A. Adaptable. B. Straightforward. C. Resistant. D. Intelligent. 3. What is the intention of the book “Mindset”? A.

To illustrate that people with different mindsets hold different beliefs. D. To help readers believe people act differently when facing challenges. B The 2024 Nobel Prize in Physics are awarded to two researchers on Oct. 8, for their foundational discoveries and inventions in the field of artificial neural (神经的) networks. Though artificial neural networks are modeled on biological neural networks, both researchers’ work drew on statistical physics, therefore winning the prize in physics. The physicist John Hopfield used ideas from physics to study a particular type of neural network, now called the Hopfield network (HNN), which explained how neuron systems interact to produce stable memories. During the 1980s, Geoffrey Hinton and his colleagues built on Hopfield’s ideas to create a new class of model. Unlike Hopfield networks that could store patterns and correct errors in patterns, the new model could generate new patterns, thereby planting the seeds of the modern generative AI revolution. Hinton was also part of another breakthrough that happened in the 1980s, which is a key algorithm (算法) that makes it possible to select weights based on the performance of the network on a training data set. However, it remained challenging to train artificial neural networks with many layers. In the 2000s, Hinton and his co-workers cleverly discovered an approach, and the deep learning revolution began. The Nobel Prize in Physics shows how ideas from physics contributed to the rise of deep learning. Now deep learning has begun to pay back to physics by enabling accurate and fast simulations (模拟) of systems ranging from molecules and materials all the way to the entire Earth’s climate. By awarding the Nobel Prize in Physics to Hopfield and Hinton, the prize committee has signaled its hope in humanity’s potential to use these advances to promote human well-being and to build a sustainable world. 4. For what were the two scientists awarded the Noble Prize in Physics? A. They invented artificial neural networks. B. They discovered biological neural networks. C. They both are excellent experts in the field of statistical physics. D. They used methods in physics to study artificial neural networks. 5. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A. John Hopfield’s devotion and achievement. B. How modern generative AI revolution began. C. Geoffrey Hinton’s research on neural network. D. The cooperation between John Hopfield and Geoffrey Hinton. 6. What has led to the deep learning revolution according to the passage? A. Finding a key algorithm which could select weights. B. Creating a new model that could generate new patterns. C. Finding a way to train multi-layer artificial neural networks. D. Discovering an approach to training artificial neural networks. 7. According to the passage, what is the influence of awarding the prize to Hopfield and Hinton? A. More people will be inspired to study physics. B. Simulations of systems will be faster and more accurate. C. People will employ the development to benefit the Earth. D. Deep learning will play a more important role in our life. C Jackdaws (寒鸦) are the smallest member of the crow family. They often live in a crowd. Indeed, when cold weather comes, they gather in the hundreds (and sometimes thousands) every evening so that they can sleep in the same place. If you’ve ever heard jackdaws during their evening gatherings and morning departures, you’ll know they are not quiet birds. Despite being fairly low-volume during the day, they are really loud on either side of their night-time get-togethers. Why might this be? A team of the Cornish Jackdaw Project set out to determine why jackdaws are so noisy before they depart from their sleeping spot. The team’s theory was that the morning calls might be a jackdaw version of “voting”. The researchers suspected that each individual’s call might count as an “I’m in!”. When a certain amount of “I’m in!”s are called —and so a certain volume of noise is reached -the group might then depart as a unit. To test this idea, the researchers artificially increased the level of calls during the jackdaws’ natural morning calls. Their expectation was that, if jackdaws really are “voting with their voice” to decide when to depart the sleeping site, artificially adding calls would make them leave earlier than they naturally would have done. Subsequent experiments confirmed their expectation. The team therefore showed that jackdaws use their calls as a sort of voting system. You might wonder why this happens. The researchers suggest that individual jackdaws benefit from the voting system because they are less at risk of being killed and they can get more access to social information — such as where to find food. So the loud calls of jackdaws in the morning are therefore not the pure chaos it sounds like. If you are ever being driven mad by the sound in the morning, you can find comfort in the fact that the louder they get, the sooner they will leave you in peace. 8. What aspect of jackdaws confused scientists? A. Their strong team spirit. B. Their preference for noisy habitats. C. Their collective sleeping habit. D. Their unusual calling behavior. 9. What happened to the jackdaws when artificial calls were added? A. They stopped calling together. B. They left their sleeping spot earlier. C. They became noisier and more active. D. They changed their sleeping location. 10. What does the voting system mean to individual jackdaws? A. A signal of seeking food. B. A strategy for better survival. C. A way to attract potential partners. D. A method of displaying social skills. 11. What can be the best title for the text? A. Jackdaws are Noise Makers. B. Jackdaws Have a Complex Voting System. C. Jackdaws ‘Vote’ to Make a Group Decision. D. Jackdaws ‘Vote’ to Choose Their Group Leaders. D At the Game Awards (TGA) 2024, Black Myth: Wukong achieved several “breakthrough” in Chinese gaming history. This Chinese hit video game has taken the gaming world by storm, selling more than 10 million copies across all platforms in just three days after its release. The game is inspired by the classic Chinese novel Journey to the West. In it, players take the role of the Destined One, setting off for adventures to collect six Relics that once belonged to Sun Wukong and challenge the Celestial Court. Drawing on a rich heritage of nearly 1,000 years of Chinese culture, the game’s storyline and characters have proven difficult to understand for foreign players. For instance, a player shared on social media that their lack of familiarity with Journey to the West led to them consistently missing hidden treasures, finally resulting in repeated failures during a boss fight in Chapter 2. Meanwhile, some players feel overwhelmed by names like Erlang Shen and Lingxuzi, which can be difficult to pronounce for those unfamiliar with pinyin. To bridge these cultural divides, one enthusiast wrote a 200-page outline detailing Sun Wukong’s abilities across all 100 chapters of Journey to the West. Many others immersed themselves in the story by checking out TV shows, anime and online forums. Through this process, western players have not only improved their gaming skills but also developed a deeper appreciation for Sun Wukong and Journey to the West. “Although many people might compare Sun Wukong to Western superheroes, I believe they are different,” said Patrick from the US. “Sun Wukong has a carefree and independent nature, unlimited by the need to set a good example for others like Spider-Man, who by contrast follows principles like ’with great power comes great responsibility’.” Journey to the West offers a comprehensive narrative that covers a very dangerous journey, numerous encounters and the exploration of various cultures, making it a rich source for diverse storytelling types and cultural backgrounds. Perhaps these are some of the key reasons why Journey to the West has been translated into over a dozen languages, with more than 60 versions available worldwide. 12. What is the Destined One in paragraph 2? A. The fictional main character of the game. B. The nickname of Sun Wukong in the game. C One of the adventures to collect the six Relics. D. One of the six Relics belonging to the Celestial Court. 13. What does the underlined word “bridge” in paragraph 4 most likely mean? A. Take control of. B. Get rid of. C. Lose track of. D. Take advantage of. 14. What can be learned about the game from the passage? A. It has gradually gained popularity among players worldwide. B. Its original character Sun Wukong is similar to western superheroes. C. It is hard for foreign players due to their unfamiliarity with Chinese culture. D. It has been translated into many languages with numerous versions available worldwide. 15. What does the text mainly talk about? A. A Chinese hit video game and its original novel Journey to the West. B. Reasons behind the success of Chinese video game Black Myth: Wukong. C. The benefits Black Myth: Wukong brings to the spread of Chinese culture. D. The cultural impact and western players’ reception of a Chinese hit video game. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Whether they are a friend, family member, coworker, or romantic partner, dealing with someone who is insecure can be exhausting.____16____Here are some practical suggestions to make your relationship more relaxing and enjoyable.
