Born in Beijing in 1976, Li grew up in Chengdu. Her life took a dramatic turn when her family moved to America. Initially, the family didn’t speak English, so the burden of translation fell on Li. She credited kind teachers at her new high school for helping her overcome challenges, as she developed language skills and regained her academic excellence. Outside school, she worked tirelessly in low-paying jobs to support her family. During this period, she felt like an outsider with few friends, suffering from isolation (孤独). Despite these hardships, she was accepted into Princeton to study physics. In 1999, Li graduated with honors, before going on to complete her Ph. D. and eventually joining Princeton’s computer science department as an assistant professor. At Princeton, Li began to pioneer ImageNet, a large-scale image database in visual object recognition software. Frustrated by her peers’ inefficient approach of training computers to recognize one image at a time, she introduced computers to a vast number of objects based on children’s visual learning methods. This led to the creation of ImageNet, which involved a massive labeling effort for over three million images. Instead of getting support within the Princeton department, she outsourced (外包) the task to the Internet, using an Amazon’s program to parcel the job out to remote workers around the globe. Before long ImageNet was completed, and it has subsequently had an enormous impact on the development of artificial intelligence. The database has now grown to over fourteen million images, and is a fundamental part of countless AI applications, like self-driving car technology. Beyond her technical contributions, Li is a faithful advocate for moral AI development. She founded the Human-Centered AI Institute to advance AI research that improves the human condition. Moreover, Li’s influence extends to promoting diversity in AI, through initiatives like AI4ALL, which educates historically excluded talents in the field. Her devotion to AI development earns her the name of “the Godmother of AI”. 4. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A. Li’s pursuit of further excellence. B. Li’s struggles in the new life. C. Li’s efforts in balancing studies and work. D. Li’s gratitude to her teachers. 5. What is special about ImageNet? A. It recognizes a single object at a time. B. It produces a huge number of images. C. It automates image-recognition process. D. It features extensive image recognition. 6. Why does the author mention the Human-Centered AI Institute? A. To praise Li’s outstanding technical competence. B. To highlight Li’s status in the AI research field. C. To demonstrate Li’s devotion to moral AI development. D. To emphasize Li’s influence on advancing diversity in AI. 7. Which of the following best describes Li’s character? A. Creative and caring. B. Ambitious and optimistic. C. Cautious and patriotic. D. Conventional and determined. 【答案】4. B 5. D 6. C 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了李飞飞从中国青少年成长为人工智能领军人物的非凡历程，包括她在美生活的艰辛、科研成就以及对道德AI发展和行业多样性的贡献。 【4题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段中“Her life took a dramatic turn when her family moved to America. Initially, the family didn’t speak English, so the burden of translation fell on Li. She credited kind teachers at her new high school for helping her overcome challenges, as she developed language skills and regained her academic excellence. Outside school, she worked tirelessly in low paying jobs to support her family. During this period, she felt like an outsider with few friends, suffering from isolation (孤独). (当她的家人搬到美国时，她的生活发生了巨大的转变。起初，她的家人不会说英语，所以翻译的重担落在了李的身上。她感谢新高中善良的老师帮助她克服挑战，因为她发展了语言技能，重新恢复了学业上的优异表现。校外，她不知疲倦地从事低薪工作来养家。在此期间，她觉得自己像个局外人，朋友很少，饱受孤独之苦)”可知，该段主要讲述了李飞飞在新生活中面临语言、学业、工作和社交等方面的种种困难和挣扎。故选B项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“At Princeton, Li began to pioneer ImageNet, a large scale image database in visual object recognition software. Frustrated by her peers’ inefficient approach of training computers to recognize one image at a time, she introduced computers to a vast number of objects based on children’s visual learning methods. This led to the creation of ImageNet, which involved a massive labeling effort for over three million images. (在普林斯顿大学，李飞飞开始开创ImageNet，这是一个用于视觉目标识别软件的大规模图像数据库。她对同行们一次训练计算机识别一张图像的低效方法感到沮丧，于是她根据儿童的视觉学习方法让计算机接触大量的物体。这促成了ImageNet的创建，该数据库涉及对超过三百万张图像进行大规模的标注工作)”可知，ImageNet的特别之处在于它具有广泛的图像识别功能。故选D项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中“Beyond her technical contributions, Li is a faithful advocate for moral AI development. She founded the Human Centered AI Institute to advance AI research that improves the human condition. (除了技术贡献之外，李飞飞是道德人工智能发展的坚定倡导者。她创立了以人为本的人工智能研究所，以推进改善人类状况的人工智能研究)”可知，作者提到以人为本的人工智能研究所是为了证明李飞飞对道德人工智能发展的奉献。故选C项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“Frustrated by her peers’ inefficient approach of training computers to recognize one image at a time, she introduced computers to a vast number of objects based on children’s visual learning methods. This led to the creation of ImageNet (她对同行们一次训练计算机识别一张图像的低效方法感到沮丧，于是她根据儿童的视觉学习方法让计算机接触大量的物体。这促成了ImageNet的创建)”可知，她不局限于传统方法，而是创造性地开创了ImageNet，体现了她的创造性；根据第五段中“She founded the Human Centered AI Institute to advance AI research that improves the human condition. Moreover, Li’s influence extends to promoting diversity in AI, through initiatives like AI4ALL, which educates historically excluded talents in the field. (她创立了以人为本的人工智能研究所，以推进改善人类状况的人工智能研究。此外，李飞飞的影响力还延伸到促进人工智能领域的多样性，通过像AI4ALL这样的倡议，该倡议为该领域历史上被排除在外的人才提供教育)”可知，她关心人类状况和行业人才的多样性，体现了她的爱心。所以她是有创造力且有爱心的。故选A项。 C Our earliest ancestors trapped or hunted what meat they ate. When we learned to domesticate (驯化)animals, we raised them on our land, or we wandered the land with our herds. No matter which tribe we belonged to, our animals were our property. We ate their flesh in small portions, and we ate almost every bit of them, especially the poorest among us. The Industrial Revolution changed meat. In the 19th century, refrigeration enabled meat to be trucked in from far away, or shipped from even further away, which eventually led to the destroying of forests in places like Brazil. Production then became more efficient. By the late 1940s, antibiotics (抗生素) became routine in chicken feed. By the late 1990s, genetically modified (转基因的) corn and soy brought abundant crops of animal feed. Animals were bred to be bigger and faster-growing. In the U.S., government subsidies (补贴) helped: free groundwater, federally backed loans, price guarantees for feed crops. And meat went big. Today the $1 trillion global meat industry is dominated by a handful of companies, including JBS, Cargill, and Tyson. Since 1961, meat production has increased four times, dwarfing the growth in the human population, which merely doubled. Meat went from being special to being an everyday right. The more we developed, the more flesh we ate. China’s meat consumption jumped sharply, from about 6. 6 pounds per person in 1961 to more than 140 pounds in 2024. But the United States became the lions of Planet Carnivore (食肉动物). On average, Americans went from eating around 207 pounds of meat in 1961 to 280 pounds in 2024, and chicken came to dominate. It wasn’t just chicken consumption that changed. Follow a chicken truck to the butchery — continued forest destruction, an alarming rise in antibiotic-resistant bacteria, ever-increasing greenhouse gas emissions — and you realize what a dark shadow we have cast over where we live. 8. How did the Industrial Revolution affect meat? A. It caused a sharp fall in the price of meat. B. It decreased the nutritional value of meat. C. It restricted the use of antibiotics in meat. D. It revolutionized meat production and distribution. 9. What does the underlined word “dwarfing” mean in paragraph 3? A. Making something seem small. B. Greatly expanding something. C. Matching something in number. D. Negatively impacting something. 10. How does the author show the rapid increase in meat consumption? A. By making a comparison. B. By giving explanations. C. By introducing a concept. D. By making a prediction. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Antibiotics Has Transformed Chicken Feed B. Global Companies Dominate Meat Industry C. Our Taste for Flesh Has Exhausted the Earth D. Meat Production Results in Forest Destruction 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了肉类生产从早期到现在的变化，阐述了工业化对肉类生产的影响、肉类消费的增长情况以及由此带来的环境问题。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The Industrial Revolution changed meat. In the 19th century, refrigeration enabled meat to be trucked in from far away, or shipped from even further away, which eventually led to the destroying of forests in places like Brazil. Production then became more efficient. By the late 1940s, antibiotics (抗生素) became routine in chicken feed. By the late 1990s, genetically modified (转基因的) corn and soy brought abundant crops of animal feed. Animals were bred to be bigger and faster-growing.(工业革命改变了肉类。19世纪，制冷技术使肉类可以从遥远的地方用卡车运来，甚至从更远的地方运来，这最终导致了巴西等地森林的破坏。随后生产变得更有效率。到20世纪40年代末，抗生素在鸡饲料中成为常规添加物。到20世纪90年代末，转基因玉米和大豆带来了丰富的动物饲料作物。动物被培育得更大、生长更快)”可知，工业革命在肉类的生产(如培育动物、饲料变化等)和运输(制冷技术使远距离运输成为可能)方面带来了巨大变革。故选D项。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句“Since 1961, meat production has increased four times, dwarfing the growth in the human population, which merely doubled.(自1961年以来，肉类产量增长了四倍，dwarfing人口的增长，而人口仅增长了一倍)”可知，肉类产量增长四倍，而人口只增长一倍，对比之下，人口增长就显得很少了。所以“dwarfing”意思是“使某物显得小”。故选A项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“China’s meat consumption jumped sharply, from about 6.6 pounds per person in 1961 to more than 140 pounds in 2024. But the United States became the lions of Planet Carnivore (食肉动物). On average, Americans went from eating around 207 pounds of meat in 1961 to 280 pounds in 2024, and chicken came to dominate.(中国的肉类消费量急剧上升，从1961年人均约6.6磅增加到2024年的超过140磅。但美国成了地球上的食肉“霸主”。平均而言，美国人从1961年每人约吃207磅肉增加到2024年的280磅，鸡肉占据了主导地位)”可知，作者通过对比不同年份中国和美国的人均肉类消费量，来体现肉类消费的快速增长。故选A项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，结合最后一段中“Follow a chicken truck to the butchery — continued forest destruction, an alarming rise in antibiotic resistant bacteria, ever increasing greenhouse gas emissions — and you realize what a dark shadow we have cast over where we live.(跟着一辆运鸡的卡车到屠宰场——持续的森林破坏、抗抗生素细菌的惊人增加、不断增加的温室气体排放——你就会意识到我们给我们生活的地方投下了多么黑暗的阴影)”可知，文章主要讲述了人类对肉类的大量需求和消费导致了一系列环境问题，地球不堪重负。C选项“Our Taste for Flesh Has Exhausted the Earth(我们对肉类的喜好让地球不堪重负)”能概括文章主旨，适合做标题。故选C项。 D Twins have been rare in human history and for that reason can seem special. Many cultures associate twins with health and energy, while others see them as a reminder of the duality (双重性) of life and death, good and evil, and some famous twins are even credited with the birth of nations. Despite the fact that almost all primates (灵长目动物) today, including humans, usually give birth to just one baby, our most recent common ancient ancestors, who lived about 60 million years ago likely gave birth to twins as the standard, according to the recent research. Researchers have been studying the evolution of litter size — the number of babies born per pregnancy — for years to find out when and why twin pregnancies became uncommon. And the best way to reconstruct the history of litter size is to map the known litter size of as many species as possible across the mammalian family tree and then used mathematical models. But outside of rare events where entire animal families are fossilized together, it is extraordinarily difficult to assess litter size for extinct species from the fossilized skeleton (骨骼) alone. So they instead collected data on as many living mammals as possible, from nearly 1, 000 living mammal species for information about how many babies are commonly born to each species. Based on the study, the switch to single births in many primates, including humans, occurred at least 50 million years ago, leading to the evolution of increasingly larger bodies and brains. This adaptation allowed for the development of large human babies with sizable brains capable of complex learning as babies and young children, and increased their chances of survival. Furthermore, because multiple pregnancy requires more energy from the mother, early primate ancestors who gave birth to just one large baby may have been at a survival advantage. The findings don’t mean that having twins today is a disadvantage. That is quite a different experience from our tiny primate ancestors birthing in the trees 60 million years ago. 12. What do we know about twins in human history? A. Twin birth has been relatively infrequent. B. Twins are viewed as a symbol of harmony. C. Twins are more likely to become nation founders. D. Twin birth has seen a noticeable increase in recent times. 13. Which approach was adopted in the study of litter size evolution? A. Drawing mammalian family trees. B. Employing living mammal data. C. Construct models of extinct species. D. Assessing fossilized skeletons. 14. What led to the shift from twins to single birth according to the study? A. The growing preference for single births among humans. B. The increasing complexity of social structure in primate societies. C. The necessity for mothers to conserve energy during the parenting process. D. The natural process of genetic development of body size and brain capacity. 15. What is the author’s attitude towards twins’ evolution? A. Doubtful. B. Objective. C. Approving. D. Ambiguous. 【答案】12. A 13. B 14. D 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了关于双胞胎在人类历史和灵长目动物进化中的相关研究和发现，探讨了双胞胎出生频率的变化及其背后的进化原因。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Twins have been rare in human history and for that reason can seem special.(在人类历史上，双胞胎一直较为罕见，正因如此，他们似乎显得很特别。)”可知，在人类历史上，双胞胎一直很罕见，即双胞胎的出生相对不常见。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“So they instead collected data on as many living mammals as possible, from nearly1, 000 living mammal species for information about how many babies are commonly born to each species.(因此，他们转而尽可能多地收集现存哺乳动物的数据，从近 1000种现存的哺乳动物物种中获取有关每个物种通常生育多少幼崽的信息。)”可知，研究人员在研究产仔数量的进化过程中，采用的方法是收集尽可能多的现存哺乳动物的数据。故选B。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Based on the study, the switch to single births in many primates, including humans, occurred at least 50million years ago, leading to the evolution of increasingly larger bodies and brains. This adaptation allowed for the development of large human babies with sizable brains capable of complex learning as babies and young children, and increased their chances of survival. Furthermore, because multiple pregnancy requires more energy from the mother, early primate ancestors who gave birth to just one large baby may have been at a survival advantage.(根据这项研究，包括人类在内的许多灵长目动物向单胎生育的转变至少发生在 5000 万年前，这导致了身体和大脑逐渐进化得越来越大。这种适应性变化使得人类能够生育出大脑发育良好的大型婴儿，这些婴儿和幼儿具备复杂的学习能力，并且增加了他们的生存几率。此外，由于多胎妊娠需要母亲消耗更多的能量，因此早期只生育一个大型婴儿的灵长目动物祖先可能在生存方面具有优势。)”可知，向单胎出生的转变导致了身体和大脑的进化，而生育一个大宝宝的早期灵长类祖先可能具有生存优势，也就是说身体大小和脑容量的遗传发展的自然过程导致了从双胞胎到单胎出生的转变。故选D。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章内容可知，文章中作者先介绍了在人类历史上双胞胎一些情况，如在不同文化中的象征意义，以及双胞胎在历史上较为罕见这一事实。接着详细阐述了关于灵长目动物每胎产仔数量演变的研究过程，包括研究的方法、研究结果。再根据最后一段“The findings don’t mean that having twins today is a disadvantage. That is quite a different experience from our tiny primate ancestors birthing in the trees 60 million years ago.(这些发现并不意味着如今生育双胞胎是不利的。这与我们6000万年前在树上生育后代的小型灵长目动物祖先的经历截然不同。)”可知，作者只是客观地陈述研究发现。故选B。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文中的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 At some point, everyone has faced unkind remarks or actions. Whether it’s teasing from classmates or harsh words from peers, dealing with such situations can be challenging. ____16____ Here are some tips to help you respond effectively and build your confidence. Practice comebacks. Quick, confident replies - known as comebacks - can stop bullies in their tracks. Instead of waiting for the perfect moment, try practicing. Ask a friend or a sympathetic adult to role-play with you. If you don’t feel comfortable with this, you can try it on your own in the mirror. Notice which style of comeback feels most natural to you. For example, if humor doesn’t feel natural, a calm response like “Are you finished?” may be more effective. ____17____ Learn a little about your bully. Bullies are usually very socially intelligent and great people-readers. They can easily see which comments get under people’s skin. You can benefit from building up this same skill, but using it for defense instead of for aggression (like the bully). Watch the bully’s reaction when you deliver your comeback and the reaction of others around him. Did he respond with surprise or walk away? ____18____ Watch for patterns and make note of what worked and what didn’t. ____19____ Sometimes comebacks can lead to more insults and even violence. Keep an eye out for signs that the person is becoming aggressive. The person may touch his head or face and clench (握紧) his fists. The person may remove an article of clothing, and may crouch down slightly. In addition, the person may turn his non-dominant side toward you; so, a left-handed person may turn his right side toward you. If you notice any of these behaviors, do not try to make a comeback and back away from the person. Get help. If someone is bullying you regularly, get help from a teacher or a parent. ____20____ If you can’t solve the problem informally, get someone in a position of authority involved. You shouldn’t have to deal with constant insults from a bully in any situation. A. Come up with safety ideas. B. Watch for physical signals of violence. C. Then the comeback style used was successful. D. Bullies are less likely to pick on you if you aren’t alone. E. You can also get in a lot of trouble for using these kinds of insults. F. While ignoring them sometimes works, a more active approach is often needed. G. Use what works best for you until you can practice and use the other methods effectively. 【答案】16. F 17. G 18. C 19. B 20. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了面对他人不友善言行时，如何有效回应和增强自信的一些建议。 【16题详解】 上文“At some point, everyone has faced unkind remarks or actions. Whether it’s teasing from classmates or harsh words from peers, dealing with such situations can be challenging. (在某个时刻，每个人都曾面对过不友善的言论或行为。无论是来自同学的嘲笑还是同龄人的严厉言辞，应对这类情况都可能颇具挑战性。)”指出人们会遇到不友善情况且应对有挑战，F选项“While ignoring them sometimes works, a more active approach is often needed. (虽然有时忽视它们会起作用，但通常需要更积极的方法。)”既提到了常见的忽视方法，又引出后文要介绍积极应对的建议，与上下文逻辑连贯。故选F项。 【17题详解】 上文“Notice which style of comeback feels most natural to you. For example, if humor doesn’t feel natural, a calm response like ‘Are you finished?’ may be more effective. (注意哪种回应方式对你来说最自然。例如，如果幽默对你来说不自然，像‘你说完了吗?’这样冷静的回应可能更有效。)”强调要找到适合自己的回应方式，G选项“Use what works best for you until you can practice and use the other methods effectively. (使用最适合你的方法，直到你能有效练习并使用其他方法。)”承接上文，进一步说明先使用适合自己的方式，符合逻辑。故选G项。 【18题详解】 上文“Watch the bully’s reaction when you deliver your comeback and the reaction of others around him. Did he respond with surprise or walk away? (当你做出回应时，观察欺负者的反应以及他周围其他人的反应。他是惊讶地回应还是走开了?)”提出要观察欺负者的反应，C选项“Then the comeback style used was successful. (那么所使用的回应方式就是成功的。)”根据上文提到的欺负者的反应，得出回应方式成功的结论，逻辑合理。故选C项。 【19题详解】 下文“Sometimes comebacks can lead to more insults and even violence. Keep an eye out for signs that the person is becoming aggressive. (有时回应可能会导致更多的侮辱甚至暴力。留意那个人变得有攻击性的迹象。)”主要围绕留意暴力的身体信号展开，B选项“Watch for physical signals of violence. (留意暴力的身体信号。)”与下文内容一致，起到了总领段落的作用。故选B项。 【20题详解】 上文“If someone is bullying you regularly, get help from a teacher or a parent .(如果有人经常欺负你，向老师或家长寻求帮助。)”建议向他人寻求帮助，D选项“Bullies are less likely to pick on you if you aren’t alone. (如果你不是独自一人，欺负者就不太可能找你麻烦。)”说明寻求帮助后有人陪伴，欺负者就不敢轻易欺负你，与上文寻求帮助的内容相呼应。故选D项。 第三部分 语言运用(共两小节，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。 A couple’s love for animals and each other inspired a heartwarming 40th birthday gesture.

But a shift in educational policies (政策), with an emphasis on academics, had reduced my choir to a mere 32 students. My lead singers had graduated or been forced to drop music classes, leaving me with inexperienced kids who couldn’t read music and could sing only a simple melody (曲子). This year’s singing contest would be held in seven months. Compared to other school choirs, the Madison choir with 75 members, King School with 125 students and etc., ours was little in size. One day, a student asked eagerly, “What will we be singing for contest this year?” I feared this moment. “Maybe we’ll skip the contest,” I suggested. “No! We can make it!” the kids screamed. “I’ll have to think about it,” I said, hoping their enthusiasm would die off soon. But that didn’t happen. Every day they begged and insisted. However, I couldn’t tell them they weren’t good enough as I had to protect their self-esteem (自尊). My efforts to discourage their eagerness, by showing them a difficult piece of music from the contest list, simply ended with, “It’s okay, Mrs. Pliszka, we’ll get it.” I struggled to make a decision. If I destroyed their hope, would I destroy their spirit? I wasn’t afraid of hard work, and I enjoyed a challenge. But I wasn’t a miracle (奇迹) worker. So I considered this dilemma. Finally, one morning I stomped into class. “From now on, be in your seats with your music folders on the desk when the bell rings, and sit at attention, ready for warm-ups the instant I’m ready to begin. When I’m working with one section, there will be no talking from the others. You will listen, and you will learn. You will work harder. If all these rules are obeyed, we will be entering the contest. To achieve our big dream, …” The rest of my sentence was lost in shouts of delight and applause. I was certain they would fail to keep this promise, and no one would have to be embarrassed. 注意： 1. 所写短文的词数应为150 左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 As the weeks progressed, the kids remained focused. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When the contest day finally arrived, the kids felt ready to take on the world! ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文1 As the weeks progressed, the kids remained focused. They followed the rules with no complaints and seemed to thrive on the discipline demanded of them. Each morning they sat attention, ready for warm-ups, learned, practiced, rehearsed and went over and over the songs to be sung in the contest. I was amazed at the driving force that kept pushing them on. The courage they had shown from day one overwhelmed me, changing something within myself. No more did I hesitate, but make every effort to teach them. With the passage of time, the kids were making steady and remarkable improvements, which was beyond my expectations. (90w) When the contest day finally arrived, the kids felt ready to take on the world! They mounted the stairs, smiles of confidence spreading on their faces. Their singing sounded good. The entire audience broke into loud applause the instant they finished their songs. My heart swelled with pride for this little group. After what seemed a century, the results were posted. There was our name at the very top! All around kids were squealing and embracing. Warm tears wet my cheeks. And I was surrounded by kids who had a dream—kids who refused to give up—kids who taught me to never doubt the possibility of success for any student or any class ever again.

Born in Beijing in 1976 Li grew up in Chengdu. Her life took a dramatic turn when her family moved to America. Initially, the family didn’t speak English, so the burden of translation fell on Li. She credited kind teachers at her new high school for helping her overcome challenges, as she developed language skills and regained her academic excellence. Outside school, she worked tirelessly in low-paying jobs to support her family. During this period, she felt like an outsider with few friends, suffering from isolation (孤独). Despite these hardships, she was accepted into Princeton to study physics. In 1999, Li graduated with honors, before going on to complete her Ph. D. and eventually joining Princeton’s computer science department as an assistant professor. At Princeton, Li began to pioneer ImageNet, a large-scale image database in visual object recognition software. Frustrated by her peers’ inefficient approach of training computers to recognize one image at a time, she introduced computers to a vast number of objects based on children’s visual learning methods. This led to the creation of ImageNet, which involved a massive labeling effort for over three million images. Instead of getting support within the Princeton department, she outsourced (外包) the task to the Internet, using an Amazon’s program to parcel the job out to remote workers around the globe. Before long ImageNet was completed, and it has subsequently had an enormous impact on the development of artificial intelligence. The database has now grown to over fourteen million images, and is a fundamental part of countless AI applications, like self-driving car technology. Beyond her technical contributions, Li is a faithful advocate for moral AI development. She founded the Human-Centered AI Institute to advance AI research that improves the human condition. Moreover, Li’s influence extends to promoting diversity in AI, through initiatives like AI4ALL, which educates historically excluded talents in the field. Her devotion to AI development earns her the name of “the Godmother of AI”. 4. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A. Li’s pursuit of further excellence. B. Li’s struggles in the new life. C. Li’s efforts in balancing studies and work. D. Li’s gratitude to her teachers. 5. What is special about ImageNet? A. It recognizes a single object at a time. B. It produces a huge number of images. C. It automates image-recognition process. D. It features extensive image recognition. 6. Why does the author mention the Human-Centered AI Institute? A. To praise Li’s outstanding technical competence. B. To highlight Li’s status in the AI research field. C. To demonstrate Li’s devotion to moral AI development. D. To emphasize Li’s influence on advancing diversity in AI. 7. Which of the following best describes Li’s character? A. Creative and caring. B. Ambitious and optimistic. C. Cautious and patriotic. D. Conventional and determined. C Our earliest ancestors trapped or hunted what meat they ate. When we learned to domesticate (驯化)animals, we raised them on our land, or we wandered the land with our herds. No matter which tribe we belonged to, our animals were our property. We ate their flesh in small portions, and we ate almost every bit of them, especially the poorest among us. The Industrial Revolution changed meat. In the 19th century, refrigeration enabled meat to be trucked in from far away, or shipped from even further away, which eventually led to the destroying of forests in places like Brazil. Production then became more efficient. By the late 1940s, antibiotics (抗生素) became routine in chicken feed. By the late 1990s, genetically modified (转基因的) corn and soy brought abundant crops of animal feed. Animals were bred to be bigger and faster-growing. In the U.S., government subsidies (补贴) helped: free groundwater, federally backed loans, price guarantees for feed crops. And meat went big. Today the $1 trillion global meat industry is dominated by a handful of companies, including JBS, Cargill, and Tyson. Since 1961, meat production has increased four times, dwarfing the growth in the human population, which merely doubled. Meat went from being special to being an everyday right. The more we developed, the more flesh we ate. China’s meat consumption jumped sharply, from about 6. 6 pounds per person in 1961 to more than 140 pounds in 2024. But the United States became the lions of Planet Carnivore (食肉动物). On average, Americans went from eating around 207 pounds of meat in 1961 to 280 pounds in 2024, and chicken came to dominate. It wasn’t just chicken consumption that changed. Follow a chicken truck to the butchery — continued forest destruction, an alarming rise in antibiotic-resistant bacteria, ever-increasing greenhouse gas emissions — and you realize what a dark shadow we have cast over where we live. 8. How did the Industrial Revolution affect meat? A. It caused a sharp fall in the price of meat. B. It decreased the nutritional value of meat. C. It restricted the use of antibiotics in meat. D. It revolutionized meat production and distribution. 9. What does the underlined word “dwarfing” mean in paragraph 3? A. Making something seem small. B. Greatly expanding something. C. Matching something in number. D. Negatively impacting something. 10. How does the author show the rapid increase in meat consumption? A. By making a comparison. B. By giving explanations. C. By introducing a concept. D. By making a prediction. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Antibiotics Has Transformed Chicken Feed B. Global Companies Dominate Meat Industry C. Our Taste for Flesh Has Exhausted the Earth D. Meat Production Results in Forest Destruction D Twins have been rare in human history and for that reason can seem special. Many cultures associate twins with health and energy, while others see them as a reminder of the duality (双重性) of life and death, good and evil, and some famous twins are even credited with the birth of nations. Despite the fact that almost all primates (灵长目动物) today, including humans, usually give birth to just one baby, our most recent common ancient ancestors, who lived about 60 million years ago likely gave birth to twins as the standard, according to the recent research. Researchers have been studying the evolution of litter size — the number of babies born per pregnancy — for years to find out when and why twin pregnancies became uncommon. And the best way to reconstruct the history of litter size is to map the known litter size of as many species as possible across the mammalian family tree and then used mathematical models. But outside of rare events where entire animal families are fossilized together, it is extraordinarily difficult to assess litter size for extinct species from the fossilized skeleton (骨骼) alone. So they instead collected data on as many living mammals as possible, from nearly 1, 000 living mammal species for information about how many babies are commonly born to each species. Based on the study, the switch to single births in many primates, including humans, occurred at least 50 million years ago, leading to the evolution of increasingly larger bodies and brains. This adaptation allowed for the development of large human babies with sizable brains capable of complex learning as babies and young children, and increased their chances of survival. Furthermore, because multiple pregnancy requires more energy from the mother, early primate ancestors who gave birth to just one large baby may have been at a survival advantage. The findings don’t mean that having twins today is a disadvantage. That is quite a different experience from our tiny primate ancestors birthing in the trees 60 million years ago. 12. What do we know about twins in human history? A. Twin birth has been relatively infrequent. B. Twins are viewed as a symbol of harmony. C. Twins are more likely to become nation founders. D. Twin birth has seen a noticeable increase in recent times. 13. Which approach was adopted in the study of litter size evolution? A. Drawing mammalian family trees. B. Employing living mammal data. C. Construct models of extinct species. D. Assessing fossilized skeletons. 14 What led to the shift from twins to single birth according to the study? A. The growing preference for single births among humans. B. The increasing complexity of social structure in primate societies. C. The necessity for mothers to conserve energy during the parenting process. D. The natural process of genetic development of body size and brain capacity. 15. What is the author’s attitude towards twins’ evolution? A. Doubtful. B. Objective. C. Approving. D. Ambiguous. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文中的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 At some point, everyone has faced unkind remarks or actions. Whether it’s teasing from classmates or harsh words from peers, dealing with such situations can be challenging. ____16____ Here are some tips to help you respond effectively and build your confidence. Practice comebacks. Quick, confident replies - known as comebacks - can stop bullies in their tracks. Instead of waiting for the perfect moment, try practicing. Ask a friend or a sympathetic adult to role-play with you. If you don’t feel comfortable with this, you can try it on your own in the mirror. Notice which style of comeback feels most natural to you. For example, if humor doesn’t feel natural, a calm response like “Are you finished?” may be more effective. ____17____ Learn a little about your bully. Bullies are usually very socially intelligent and great people-readers. They can easily see which comments get under people’s skin. You can benefit from building up this same skill, but using it for defense instead of for aggression (like the bully). Watch the bully’s reaction when you deliver your comeback and the reaction of others around him. Did he respond with surprise or walk away? ____18____ Watch for patterns and make note of what worked and what didn’t. ____19____ Sometimes comebacks can lead to more insults and even violence. Keep an eye out for signs that the person is becoming aggressive. The person may touch his head or face and clench (握紧) his fists. The person may remove an article of clothing, and may crouch down slightly. In addition, the person may turn his non-dominant side toward you; so, a left-handed person may turn his right side toward you. If you notice any of these behaviors, do not try to make a comeback and back away from the person. Get help. If someone is bullying you regularly, get help from a teacher or a parent. ____20____ If you can’t solve the problem informally, get someone in a position of authority involved. You shouldn’t have to deal with constant insults from a bully in any situation. A. Come up with safety ideas. B. Watch for physical signals of violence. C. Then the comeback style used was successful. D. Bullies are less likely to pick on you if you aren’t alone. E. You can also get in a lot of trouble for using these kinds of insults. F. While ignoring them sometimes works, a more active approach is often needed. G. Use what works best for you until you can practice and use the other methods effectively. 第三部分 语言运用(共两小节，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。 A couple’s love for animals and each other inspired a heartwarming 40th birthday gesture.

But a shift in educational policies (政策), with an emphasis on academics, had reduced my choir to a mere 32 students. My lead singers had graduated or been forced to drop music classes, leaving me with inexperienced kids who couldn’t read music and could sing only a simple melody (曲子). This year’s singing contest would be held in seven months. Compared to other school choirs, the Madison choir with 75 members, King School with 125 students and etc., ours was little in size. One day, a student asked eagerly, “What will we be singing for contest this year?” I feared this moment. “Maybe we’ll skip the contest,” I suggested. “No! We can make it!” the kids screamed. “I’ll have to think about it,” I said, hoping their enthusiasm would die off soon. But that didn’t happen. Every day they begged and insisted. However, I couldn’t tell them they weren’t good enough as I had to protect their self-esteem (自尊). My efforts to discourage their eagerness, by showing them a difficult piece of music from the contest list, simply ended with, “It’s okay, Mrs. Pliszka, we’ll get it.” I struggled to make a decision. If I destroyed their hope, would I destroy their spirit? I wasn’t afraid of hard work, and I enjoyed a challenge. But I wasn’t a miracle (奇迹) worker. So I considered this dilemma. Finally, one morning I stomped into class. “From now on, be in your seats with your music folders on the desk when the bell rings, and sit at attention, ready for warm-ups the instant I’m ready to begin. When I’m working with one section, there will be no talking from the others. You will listen, and you will learn. You will work harder. If all these rules are obeyed, we will be entering the contest. To achieve our big dream, …” The rest of my sentence was lost in shouts of delight and applause. I was certain they would fail to keep this promise, and no one would have to be embarrassed. 注意： 1. 所写短文的词数应为150 左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 As the weeks progressed the kids remained focused. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When the contest day finally arrived, the kids felt ready to take on the world! ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1-5 BAACC 6-10 CABAB 11-15 CACBC 16-20 CACBB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
