Raised by immigrant parents who often mispronounced words, I was afraid my voice would expose my inadequacies(不足), considering my inability to adopt a so-called “authentic American” accent as a flaw tied to my Asian identity. I quickly fell into the label of most Asian girls, but it was not because of my shyness or liking being quiet. All the beloved female characters on the Disney and Nickelodeon TV shows and all the popular girls at my school made me more silent and invisible. As I grew older, my silence became a habit. I would stay in spaces like a shadow, present but inactive. My mom grew frustrated and confused as to why I was so silent as a shell everywhere. To cope with the spiritual crisis, I took to writing, where I could think through my ideas without the pressure of pronunciation. Writing opened my eyes to the many thoughts and emotions I had been silencing. I began to observe the way my mom spoke, too. She was very vocal, whether it was chatting with her friends or it was defending herself as an ethnic minority. She always stood up for what she believed in—mispronunciations and all. Through writing and observing my mom, I realized that I had been shutting myself down before anyone else could judge me, robbing myself of the chance to be heard. I began to speak up and tell others about my background, though I have only been there several times. In sharing so many of my stories, I began to connect with those who could relate and shine a light on the beauties of living in my own culture. Now, I proudly embrace my voice without considering mispronunciation. By celebrating my ethnic heritage through shared stories, I am taking a step further towards embracing my identity, proving that my voice, filled with richness and authenticity, deserves to be heard. 4. What made the author afraid to use her voice? A. She had to compete with others. B. She was unable to master English. C. She was born too shy to express herself. D. She spoke a different accent from others. 5. What did those popular girls bring to the author? A. Guilt. B. Sympathy. C. Stress. D. Belonging. 6. How can the author’s writing and observing her mom be defined? A. A shortcut to learning English. B. A process of her self-awareness. C. A step towards better writing skills. D. An exploration of cultural differences. 7. What did the author express when concluding her story? A. Satisfaction with her family. B. Acceptance of her identity. C. Evaluation on Asian immigrants. D. Appreciation of the foreign culture. 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. B 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者害怕使用自己的声音，这是因为作者怕暴露出自己的亚洲身份，随后作者变得沉默寡言，为了应对自己的精神危机，作者开始写作，并观察妈妈的说话方式，慢慢地作者接受了自己的身份。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Raised by immigrant parents who often mispronounced words, I was afraid my voice would expose my inadequacies(不足), considering my inability to adopt a so-called “authentic American” accent as a flaw tied to my Asian identity.(我父母是移民，他们经常把单词念错，我害怕自己的声音会暴露出我的不足，认为自己无法接纳所谓“纯的美国”口音是与我的亚洲身份相关的缺陷。)”可知，作者说话的口音与别人的口音不同，这让作者害怕使用她的声音。故选D。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“All the beloved female characters on the Disney and Nickelodeon TV shows and all the popular girls at my school made me more silent and invisible.(迪士尼和尼克电视节目中所有心爱的女性角色以及我学校的所有受欢迎的女孩都使我更加沉默和隐形。)”可知，那些受欢迎的女孩使作者更加沉默和隐形，由此可推知，她们带给作者压力。故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“To cope with the spiritual crisis, I took to writing, where I could think through my ideas without the pressure of pronunciation. Writing opened my eyes to the many thoughts and emotions I had been silencing. I began to observe the way my mom spoke, too. She was very vocal, whether it was chatting with her friends or it was defending herself as an ethnic minority. She always stood up for what she believed in—mispronunciations and all.(为了应对精神危机，我开始写作，在这里我可以不受发音压力的影响来思考我的想法。写作让我看到了我一直在压抑的许多思想情感。我也开始观察我妈妈的说话方式。她非常健谈，无论是和朋友聊天还是作为少数民族为自己辩护。她总是为她所相信的身而出——即使有发音错误。)”可知，作者通过写作和观察她的妈妈使自己看到了自己压抑的情感，由此可推知，这是她自我意识的过程。故选B。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Now, I proudly embrace my voice without considering mispronunciation. By celebrating my ethnic heritage through shared stories, I am taking a step further towards embracing my identity, proving that my voice, filled with richness and authenticity, deserves to be heard.(现在，我自豪地接受我的声音，而不考虑发音错误。通过分享的故事庆祝我的种族遗产，我正在进一步接受我的身份，证明我的声音充满了丰富性和真实性，值得被听到。)”可知，作者在总结自己的故事时，表达了她已经接受了她的身份。故选B。 C A new study suggests people might like chatbot-produced poems for their simple and straightforward images, emotions and themes. In a recent experiment, the researchers tasked OpenAI’s ChatGPT with generating poems in the styles of famous poets, then presented 1,634 participants with ten poems — five human-written and five chatbot-generated — and assessed how people rated the poems based on 14 qualities, including rhythm and originality. Interestingly, they tended to rate the AI-generated poems higher on average, suggesting a preference for their straightforwardness and clarity. Why readers seem to prefer AI-generated poetry is not entirely clear, but the researchers’ best guess is that the AI poems may be more appealing because they are relatively straightforward and simple to comprehend. “Emily Dickinson sometimes breaks the expected rhyme scheme (韵律) on purpose,” says Brian Porter, a researcher at the University of Pittsburgh, “But the AI-generated poems in her style never did that once.” Besides, modern readers don’t seem to want to bother themselves to read deep to think critically. Instead, they prefer texts giving them instant answers. “When readers say they prefer AI poetry, they would seem to be showing their frustration when faced with writing that does not yield to their attention,” he adds. While the findings raise concerns about AI potentially replacing human artists and putting them out of work one day, Dorothea Lasky, the only living poet whose writings were included in the experiments, says it’s not necessarily a bad thing that readers enjoyed the AI-generated poems. “Poetry will always be necessary,” Lasky says, “If they read AI poems and like that poem better than a human-generated poem, then that, to me, is beautiful. They have a good experience with a poem, and I don’t care who wrote it. I feel there is room for all poets — even robot poets.” This study provided a platform for the intersection of technology and creativity, prompting reflection on the future of poetry and artistic expression. 8. Why did the researchers conduct the experiment? A. To create a technique. B. To clarify a concept. C. To detail an example. D. To confirm a finding. 9. What does the example of Emily Dickinson imply? A Robots are more complicated than humans. B. AI meets modern readers’ reading preference. C. Chatbot is trained to write in creative patterns. D. Classic poetry lacks unique charming features. 10. Which belief does Dorothea Lasky have about poetry? A. All flowers bloom together. B. No dish suits all tastes. C. It’s no use crying over spilt milk. D. Time and tide wait for no man. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Will Poets Be lost in AI Era? B. ChatGPT: a New Advancement C. Fake or Real — a Concern about AI D. ChatGPT or Dickinson, Who is better? 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项新的研究表明，人们可能会喜欢聊天机器人制作的诗歌，因为他们的简单明了的图像，情感和主题，为此科学家进行了一项研究。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“A new study suggests people might like chatbot-produced poems for their simple and straightforward images, emotions and themes.(一项新研究表明，人们可能会喜欢聊天机器人制作的诗歌，因为他们的简单明了的图像，情感和主题。)”和第二段“In a recent experiment, the researchers tasked OpenAI’s ChatGPT with generating poems in the styles of famous poets, then presented 1,634 participants with ten poems — five human-written and five chatbot-generated — and assessed how people rated the poems based on 14 qualities, including rhythm and originality.(在最近的一项实验中，研究人员让OpenAI的ChatGPT以著名诗人的风格生成诗歌，然后向1634名展示了十首诗——五首是人类写的，五首是聊天机器人生成的——并评估了人们对这些诗的14种品质的评分，节奏和原创性。)”可推知，研究人员进行这项实验的目的是确认一个发现——人们可能会喜欢聊天机器人制作的诗歌，故选D。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Why readers seem to prefer AI-generated poetry is not entirely clear, but the researchers’ best guess is that the AI poems may be more appealing because they are relatively straightforward and simple to comprehend. “Emily Dickinson sometimes breaks the expected rhyme scheme (韵律) on purpose,” says Brian Porter, a researcher at the University of Pittsburgh, “But the AI-generated poems in her style never did that once.”(为什么读者似乎更喜欢AI生成的诗歌并不完全清楚，但是研究人员的最佳猜测是，AI诗可能更具吸引力，因为它们相对简单明了，简单地理解。匹兹堡大学的研究员布莱恩·波特（Brian Porter）说：“艾米丽·迪金森有时会故意打破预期的韵律。但是AI生成的她的风格的诗歌从未那样做过一次（打破预期的韵律）。)”可推知，艾米丽·迪金森（Emily Dickinson）的例子暗示了AI满足现代读者的阅读偏好——人们喜欢简单明了的内容。故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“ “Poetry will always be necessary,” Lasky says, “If they read AI poems and like that poem better than a human-generated poem, then that, to me, is beautiful. They have a good experience with a poem, and I don’t care who wrote it. I feel there is room for all poets— even robot poets.”(“诗歌将永远是必要的，”拉斯基说，“如果他们阅读人工智能的诗，并且比人类创作的诗更喜欢那首诗，那么在我看来，这是美丽的。我不在乎是谁写的，只要他们有一段很好的诗歌体验。我觉得所有的诗人都有空间——即使是机器人诗人。”)”可知，Dorothea Lasky认为无论是机器人还是人写诗，只要写出好的诗歌便是好的，由此可推知，他认为诗歌写作应该是百花齐放，故选A。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“A new study suggests people might like chatbot-produced poems for their simple and straightforward images, emotions and themes.(一项新的研究表明，人们可能会喜欢聊天机器人制作的诗歌，因为他们的简单明了的图像，情感和主题。)”可知，文章主要介绍了一项新的研究表明，人们可能会喜欢聊天机器人制作的诗歌，因为他们的简单明了的图像，情感和主题，为此科学家进行了一项研究，由此可知，文章主要探讨了人工智能作的诗和诗人写出的诗，哪个更受欢迎，D项“Chatgpt或Dickinson，谁更好？”能概括文章内容，故选D。 D New research indicates that our brains divide daily memories not only based on environmental shifts but also on personal experiences and priorities. A Columbia University research, led by Baldassano, a professor of psychology, has shown that we may have more control over our memory organization than previously thought. The study, published in Current Biology on October 3, challenges the idea that memory segmentation (分区) is driven by environmental changes. The team proposed that the boundaries between different scenes are shaped by our past experiences and emotional responses to events. To test their hypothesis, the researchers created 16 short audios, each with four locations and social situations. While participants listened to audios, researchers used fMRI (磁共振) to monitor brain activity, particularly in the mPFC (内侧前额叶皮质), an area associated with perception and interpretation of our surroundings. The scans revealed that mPFC activity increased during key social event changes. However, participants’s egmentation of events could be altered by directing their attention to different details. The study also found that participants’ memory of the audios varied based on what they were asked to focus on. When they were asked to recall the part of the audio they were not asked to pay attention to, they forgot many details. This suggests that our memory is selective and influenced by our attention. “We can choose what we pay attention to and what we remember. This means that, in many ways, we control the memory of our own experiences.” Baldassano noted. The implications of this research are significant for understanding memory-related issues, such as stress disorder, dementia, and normal aging. The study suggests memory-based treatments shouldn’t just focus on any shift to improve long-term memory. Attention should be directed toward key moments to help people better understand and remember what matters most. While it is not clear how allowing people to freely recall their experiences can change the way they frame their memories, this study opens new avenues for understanding how we remember our daily lives. 12. What aspect did Baldassano stress about memory segmentation? A. Personal priorities. B. Environmental changes. C. Emotional treatments. D. Boundaries between scenes. 13. How did the researchers test their theory? A. Interviewing participants’ daily experiences. B. Recording people’s memories of past events. C. Monitoring brain activities about some audios. D. Comparing individuals’ different environments. 14. What happened when participants were guided to some details? A. They intended to collect more details. B. They became confused in brain activities. C. They ignored other details unconsciously. D. They preferred to concentrate on the audios. 15. What does Baldassano suggest about memory-based treatments? A. Improving long-term memory. B. Emphasizing environmental shifts. C. Making use of the flexibility of memory. D. Collecting plenty of specific memory details. 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. C 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。新的研究表明，我们的大脑不仅基于环境转变，而且基于个人经验和优先事项来划分日常记忆。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“New research indicates that our brains divide daily memories not only based on environmental shifts but also on personal experiences and priorities. (新的研究表明，我们的大脑不仅根据环境变化，还根据个人经历和优先事项来划分日常记忆)”和第二段“The study, published in Current Biology on October 3, challenges the idea that memory segmentation (分区) is driven by environmental changes. The team proposed that the boundaries between different scenes are shaped by our past experiences and emotional responses to events.(该研究于10月3日发表在《当代生物学》上，挑战了记忆分区是由环境变化驱动的观点。研究团队提出，场景之间的边界是由我们的过去经历和对事件的情感反应塑造的。)”可知，Baldassano的团队认为记忆分区不是由环境区分导致的，还根据个人经历和优先事项来划分日常记忆，它是由我们的过去经历和对事件的情感反应塑造的，由此可知，关于记忆分区，Baldassano强调的是个人优先事项。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“To test their hypothesis, the researchers created 16 short audios, each with four locations and social situations. While participants listened to audios, researchers used fMRI (磁共振) to monitor brain activity, particularly in the mPFC (内侧前额叶皮质), an area associated with perception and interpretation of our surroundings.(为了检验他们的假设，研究人员创建了16段短音频，每段音频都有四个地点和社交场合。当参与者听音频时研究人员使用fMRI来监测大脑活动，特别是在mPFC区域，该区域与我们周围环境的感知和解释有关。)”可知，研究人员通过监视有关某些音频的大脑活动来检验他们的理论，故选C。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“When they were asked to recall the part of the audio they were not asked to pay attention to, they forgot many details. (当他们被要求回忆起没有要求注意的音频部分时，他们忘记了许多细节。)”可知，当参与者被指导一些细节时，他们无意识地忽略了其他细节。故选C。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段““We can choose what we pay attention to and what we remember. This means that, in many ways, we control the memory of our own experiences.” The implications of this research are significant for understanding memory-related issues, such as stress disorder, dementia, and normal aging. The study suggests memory-based treatments shouldn’t just focus on any shift to improve long-term memory. Attention should be directed toward key moments to help people better understand and remember what matters most.(“我们可以选择我们注意的关注和记得的东西。这意味着，在许多方面，我们控制着自己经历的记忆。”这项研究对于理解与记忆相关的问题，如压力障碍、痴呆和正常衰老具有重要意义。研究建议，基于记忆的治疗不应只关注任何改善长期记忆的转变。注意力应集中在关键时刻，以帮助人们更好地理解和记住最重要的事情。)”可知，Baldassano对基于记忆的治疗的建议是不应只关注任何改善长期记忆的转变，而要将注意力应集中在关键时刻，这说明了我们能够控制自己的记忆，由此可推知，Baldassano强调要利用记忆的灵活性，故选C。 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。 Over the years, with more households embracing the joys of pet companionship, we’ve witnessed a remarkable rise in pet ownership. ____16____ As we have entered 2025, this trend has continued.

He always took some extra effort to teach me as much as he could about life on the ranch (牧场), the animals and the outdoors. He had a way of making everything seem like a success, but as I would later learn, sometimes he told little“white lies” to make sure I always felt proud of what I had achieved. I was about six years old when my grandfather asked if I would like to go fishing with him. I jumped at the chance; I had seen other kids and adults fish before, but I was always considered too young to fish myself. When my grandfather offered to take me fishing I knew that I was no longer a baby and I was more than eager to throw my line in the water and take my place amongst the older kids and adults. I was beyond excited. I ran to my grandparents’ old pickup truck and jumped into the front seat. The old man drove us ever so slowly to the large pond about a mile from the house. My grandfather led me to a shaded spot underneath a big tree whose branches hung over the water’s edge. He seemed to enjoy the excitement I was showing and took a great delight in explaining to me about how to bait (上饵) my hook, how much line to leave between the hook and the cork (软木), and the importance of what he called his“secret fisherman’s trick”. After listening to every word he said, I took the pole and dropped my line into the still water, just as he did. We settled back and waited. I began to imagine taking home a big fish and being envied by everyone. Hours passed and no fish appeared. Seeing my sadness, my grandfather suggested we leave our poles and go into the truck for a rest. I left the baited lines in the water and my grandmother gave me a glass of water then put me down for a nap (小睡). I slipped into sleep feeling that my first fishing trip had been a failure. 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。 Suddenly my grandfather shouted, “Oh, boy! Your pole is moving!” _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Years later, my grandmother revealed the truth about that day. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Suddenly my grandfather shouted, “Oh, boy! Your pole is moving!” I awoke, my heart racing with excitement. “Quick, grab your pole!” he urged, and I jumped to my feet, still half-asleep but filled with hopes. As I took hold of the fishing rod, my grandfather guided me, showing me how to make it slowly. “Keep your line tight!” he instructed, his voice steady and encouraging. I finally saw a flash of silver in the water. “That’s it! You’re doing great!” my grandfather cheered. With one final pull, I managed to bring the fish to the shore. Years later, my grandmother revealed the truth about that day. She had seen my grandfather secretly place a fish on the hook of my fishing pole, ensuring that my first fishing experience would be a success. I was so amazed by my grandmother’s words. I knew that my grandfather loved me, but I never knew the extremes he went to in order to make my first fishing experience a good one. My greatest hope is that one day people will remember me like I remember my grandpa. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者六岁时，祖父带他去钓鱼的经历。祖父平时对作者关爱有加，常教他牧场生活等知识，还会用善意的谎言让作者为自己的成就感到自豪。那次钓鱼，作者起初兴奋不已，在祖父指导下准备好鱼竿并等待鱼儿上钩，然而几小时过去毫无收获，他很沮丧。祖父提议休息，作者在卡车上小睡。醒来后祖父喊他，鱼竿动了，作者钓到了鱼。多年后祖母揭示真相，原来是祖父在作者小睡时悄悄在鱼钩上放了鱼，确保他首次钓鱼成功。文章体现了祖父对作者深深的爱。 【详解】 1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“突然，我的祖父大喊：‘哦，孩子！你的杆子在移动！’”可知，第一段可描写祖父教作者如何将鱼钓上来。 ②由第二段首句内容“几年后，我的祖母透露了那天的真相。”可知，第二段可描写祖母告诉作者，那天是祖父秘密地将一条鱼放在作者的钓鱼杆的钩子上，以确保作者的第一次钓鱼经历将是成功的。。 2.续写线索：醒来——祖父引导作者如何拉线——作者将鱼拉倒岸上——祖母告诉作者一个秘密——那天是祖父将一条鱼放到作者的鱼竿上——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①醒来：awake/wake up ②教：instruct/teach ③放置：place/put 情绪类 ①兴奋：with excitement/excitedly ②惊讶的：amazed/surprised 【点睛】 [高分句型1]I awoke, my heart racing with excitement. （运用了独立主格结构） [高分句型2]She had seen my grandfather secretly place a fish on the hook of my fishing pole, ensuring that my first fishing experience would be a success.（运用了现在分词作状语和that引导的宾语从句） [高分句型3]My greatest hope is that one day people will remember me like I remember my grandpa.（由that引导的表语从句） 听力1—5 CCABA 6—10 CCACB 11—15 BABBC 16—20 AACBB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 高三英语试题 2025.1 注意事项： 1.答第Ⅰ卷前考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2.选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号框。 3.全部答案在答题卡上完成，答在试卷上无效。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 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.

B Growing up, I was afraid of using my voice, concerned that sharing my thoughts would differentiate me from my peers. Raised by immigrant parents who often mispronounced words, I was afraid my voice would expose my inadequacies(不足), considering my inability to adopt a so-called “authentic American” accent as a flaw tied to my Asian identity. I quickly fell into the label of most Asian girls, but it was not because of my shyness or liking being quiet. All the beloved female characters on the Disney and Nickelodeon TV shows and all the popular girls at my school made me more silent and invisible. As I grew older, my silence became a habit. I would stay in spaces like a shadow, present but inactive. My mom grew frustrated and confused as to why I was so silent as a shell everywhere. To cope with the spiritual crisis, I took to writing, where I could think through my ideas without the pressure of pronunciation. Writing opened my eyes to the many thoughts and emotions I had been silencing. I began to observe the way my mom spoke, too. She was very vocal, whether it was chatting with her friends or it was defending herself as an ethnic minority. She always stood up for what she believed in—mispronunciations and all. Through writing and observing my mom, I realized that I had been shutting myself down before anyone else could judge me, robbing myself of the chance to be heard. I began to speak up and tell others about my background, though I have only been there several times. In sharing so many of my stories, I began to connect with those who could relate and shine a light on the beauties of living in my own culture. Now, I proudly embrace my voice without considering mispronunciation. By celebrating my ethnic heritage through shared stories, I am taking a step further towards embracing my identity, proving that my voice, filled with richness and authenticity, deserves to be heard. 4.

In a recent experiment, the researchers tasked OpenAI’s ChatGPT with generating poems in the styles of famous poets, then presented 1,634 participants with ten poems — five human-written and five chatbot-generated — and assessed how people rated the poems based on 14 qualities, including rhythm and originality. Interestingly, they tended to rate the AI-generated poems higher on average, suggesting a preference for their straightforwardness and clarity. Why readers seem to prefer AI-generated poetry is not entirely clear, but the researchers’ best guess is that the AI poems may be more appealing because they are relatively straightforward and simple to comprehend. “Emily Dickinson sometimes breaks the expected rhyme scheme (韵律) on purpose,” says Brian Porter, a researcher at the University of Pittsburgh, “But the AI-generated poems in her style never did that once.” Besides, modern readers don’t seem to want to bother themselves to read deep to think critically. Instead, they prefer texts giving them instant answers. “When readers say they prefer AI poetry, they would seem to be showing their frustration when faced with writing that does not yield to their attention,” he adds. While the findings raise concerns about AI potentially replacing human artists and putting them out of work one day, Dorothea Lasky, the only living poet whose writings were included in the experiments, says it’s not necessarily a bad thing that readers enjoyed the AI-generated poems. “Poetry will always be necessary,” Lasky says, “If they read AI poems and like that poem better than a human-generated poem, then that, to me, is beautiful. They have a good experience with a poem, and I don’t care who wrote it. I feel there is room for all poets — even robot poets.” This study provided a platform for the intersection of technology and creativity, prompting reflection on the future of poetry and artistic expression. 8. Why did the researchers conduct the experiment? A. To create a technique. B. To clarify a concept. C. To detail an example. D. To confirm a finding. 9. What does the example of Emily Dickinson imply? A. Robots are more complicated than humans. B. AI meets modern readers’ reading preference. C. Chatbot is trained to write in creative patterns. D. Classic poetry lacks unique charming features. 10. Which belief does Dorothea Lasky have about poetry? A. All flowers bloom together. B. No dish suits all tastes. C. It’s no use crying over spilt milk. D. Time and tide wait for no man. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Will Poets Be lost in AI Era? B. ChatGPT: a New Advancement C. Fake or Real — a Concern about AI D. ChatGPT or Dickinson, Who is better? D New research indicates that our brains divide daily memories not only based on environmental shifts but also on personal experiences and priorities. A Columbia University research, led by Baldassano, a professor of psychology, has shown that we may have more control over our memory organization than previously thought. The study, published in Current Biology on October 3, challenges the idea that memory segmentation (分区) is driven by environmental changes. The team proposed that the boundaries between different scenes are shaped by our past experiences and emotional responses to events. To test their hypothesis, the researchers created 16 short audios, each with four locations and social situations. While participants listened to audios, researchers used fMRI (磁共振) to monitor brain activity, particularly in the mPFC (内侧前额叶皮质), an area associated with perception and interpretation of our surroundings. The scans revealed that mPFC activity increased during key social event changes. However, participants’s egmentation of events could be altered by directing their attention to different details. The study also found that participants’ memory of the audios varied based on what they were asked to focus on. When they were asked to recall the part of the audio they were not asked to pay attention to, they forgot many details. This suggests that our memory is selective and influenced by our attention. “We can choose what we pay attention to and what we remember. This means that, in many ways, we control the memory of our own experiences.” Baldassano noted. The implications of this research are significant for understanding memory-related issues, such as stress disorder, dementia, and normal aging. The study suggests memory-based treatments shouldn’t just focus on any shift to improve long-term memory. Attention should be directed toward key moments to help people better understand and remember what matters most. While it is not clear how allowing people to freely recall their experiences can change the way they frame their memories, this study opens new avenues for understanding how we remember our daily lives. 12.

He always took some extra effort to teach me as much as he could about life on the ranch (牧场), the animals and the outdoors. He had a way of making everything seem like a success, but as I would later learn, sometimes he told little“white lies” to make sure I always felt proud of what I had achieved. I was about six years old when my grandfather asked if I would like to go fishing with him. I jumped at the chance; I had seen other kids and adults fish before, but I was always considered too young to fish myself. When my grandfather offered to take me fishing I knew that I was no longer a baby and I was more than eager to throw my line in the water and take my place amongst the older kids and adults. I was beyond excited. I ran to my grandparents’ old pickup truck and jumped into the front seat. The old man drove us ever so slowly to the large pond about a mile from the house. My grandfather led me to a shaded spot underneath a big tree whose branches hung over the water’s edge. He seemed to enjoy the excitement I was showing and took a great delight in explaining to me about how to bait (上饵) my hook, how much line to leave between the hook and the cork (软木), and the importance of what he called his“secret fisherman’s trick”. After listening to every word he said, I took the pole and dropped my line into the still water, just as he did. We settled back and waited. I began to imagine taking home a big fish and being envied by everyone. Hours passed and no fish appeared. Seeing my sadness, my grandfather suggested we leave our poles and go into the truck for a rest. I left the baited lines in the water and my grandmother gave me a glass of water then put me down for a nap (小睡). I slipped into sleep feeling that my first fishing trip had been a failure. 注意： 1.续写词数应 150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Suddenly my grandfather shouted, “Oh, boy! Your pole is moving!” _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Years later, my grandmother revealed the truth about that day. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力1—5 CCABA 6—10 CCACB 11—15 BABBC 16—20 AACBB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
