Here are four ideas from the literary world that may bring about your own adventures. 1. Louisa May Alcott, Concord, Massachusetts For decades, young readers have been attracted by the adventures detailed in the novel of Little Women. We have the option to visit the home of Louisa May Alcott, the novelist who composed the story around the relationships within her own family. You can take a guided tour and get a view of how the characters’ family lived in the home known as Orchard House. Many of the family’ s treasures remain in the well-preserved structure. 2. Zane Grey’s America Best-selling novelist Zane Grey created strong stories detailing the life and culture of the American West. Through titles like Call of the Canyon, Riders of the Purple Sage and The Thundering Herd, Grey’s tales inspired many to explore a new country. Visit his birthplace in Zanesville, Ohio. You can also visit a copy of his Arizona cottage (the original burned in a 1990 wildfire), which served as his home base while exploring and writing. 3. Where the Wild Things Are Why not use this creative book as the centerpiece of a wild and wonderful weekend with the kids? Read Maurice Sendak’s colourful book, then visit your local park, or walk through a nearby forest and discuss the adventures of young Max, the main character. End the weekend by streaming the Spike Jonze movie of the same name. The whole family will enjoy the mix of real actors and computer cartoons. 4. Jack London, Glen Ellen, California Channel the adventuresome spirit of one of the planet’s most inspired writers with a plan to explore more than 26 miles of hiking, horseback and cycling trails across 1, 400 acres in the Sonoma Valley. Visit the home where London wrote his page-turners. The author of Call of the Wild and White Fang was laid to rest on this landscape that developed his creativity. 1. Which writer created the story based on the writer’s family life? A. Louisa May Alcott. B. Zane Grey C. Maurice Sendak. D. Jack London. 2. What is suggested after reading Where the Wild Things Are? A. Taking a tour to the writer’s childhood home. B. Doing research on the author’s creation process. C. Spending a family weekend of multiple activities. D. Exploring the landscapes of the story setting. 3. What is the purpose of the text? A. To boost the sales of novels. B. To introduce travel journals. C. To inspire literature-related adventures. D. To offer suggestions for story writing. 【答案】1. A 2. C 3. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了四本文学书籍的情况。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“We have the option to visit the home of Louisa May Alcott, the novelist who composed the story around the relationships within her own family.(我们可以选择参观Louisa May Alcott的家，这位小说家围绕着她自己的家庭关系创作了这个故事)”可知，Louisa May Alcott根据自己的家庭生活创作了这个故事。故选A。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Why not use this creative book as the centerpiece of a wild and wonderful weekend with the kids?Read Maurice Sendak’s colourful book, then visit your local park, or walk through a nearby forest and discuss the adventures of young Max, the main character.(为什么不把这本创意书当作一个疯狂而美好的周末与孩子们一起度过的中心呢？阅读莫里斯·森达克色彩丰富的书，然后参观当地的公园，或者在附近的森林里散步，讨论主人公小马克斯的冒险经历)”可知，阅读Where the Wild Things Are后建议度过一个多活动的家庭周末。故选C。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“A good book can transport us to magical places. Here are four ideas from the literary world that may bring about your own adventures.(一本好书可以把我们带到神奇的地方。这里有四个来自文学世界的想法，可能会给你带来自己的冒险)”可知，文章的目的是激发与文学相关的冒险。故选C。 B Sandoval, who comes from Los Angeles, has traveled and filmed in over 50 countries across seven continents and now lives in China. “In 2008, tired of my studio work in the U. S, I came to China, thinking I would be here one or two years, but it has turned out to be 16 years!” he said. He hopes his photographs will inspire others to embark on adventures as well. Sandoval is a professional photographer and learned commercial photography at what was then the Brooks Institute of Photography. With the hope of trying something different for himself, he went to Chengdu in Southwest China to live in October 2008 and has traveled throughout the country since then. In the beginning, he did editorial work for magazines both in and outside Sichuan, such as Vogue. Then he worked with the Sichuan tourism department to produce travel brochures, and also on ad campaigns for destinations for corporate companies. To him, Chengdu is the capital of a laid-back lifestyle. He was delighted to see that residents, dressed stylishly or comfortably, strolled in the streets “as slowly as snails”. Almost a “walking encyclopedia” of Chengdu, Sandoval covered every corner of Chengdu and recorded Chengduese and their lives with his camera, listening to the sound of mahjong being played and music from traditional stringed instruments. He also goes from place to place with his heavy travel kit. The varied culture and vast, beautiful land has kept him in China much longer than he had planned in the beginning. He remembers a wide range of adventures like exploring a local vineyard and local wine in Yinchuan City, a riding performance by a Mongolian ethnic group in the Shuidonggou Horse Riding Show, and then the totally different experience of visiting the Hainan Free Trade Port in the south. He thinks he has done a lot in “this beautiful and vast country” with his “travel photos”. “I try to show people the beauty of where I go. I try to inspire them to travel and go to places. I’m hoping to do more international work,” he said. 4. Why did Sandoval come to China in 2008? A. He was not good at studio work in the U. S. B. He wanted to seek for something different. C. He had a preference for international work. D. He was attracted by China’s natural scenery. 5. What does the underlined word “laid-back” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A. Leisurely. B. Simple. C. Luxurious. D. Healthy. 6. Sandoval’s experiences around China are mentioned in Paragraph 5 to show _______. A. his diverse hobbies B. his desire for new careers C. his superb photo technique D. his fascination for Chinese culture 7. What is the writing purpose of this passage? A. To call on readers to take up photography as a hobby. B. To facilitate the development of tourism in Chengdu. C. To praise Sandoval for his work of spreading Chinese culture. D. To introduce the experience of a foreign photographer in China. 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了来自美国洛杉矶的专业摄影师Sandoval在中国的经历，包括他来中国的原因、在中国的工作以及他对中国文化的喜爱等。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“With the hope of trying something different for himself, he went to Chengdu in Southwest China to live in October 2008 and has traveled throughout the country since then.( 2008年10月，怀揣着为自己尝试一些不一样的东西的希望，他去了中国西南部的成都生活，并从那时起走遍了全国。)”可知，Sandoval 2008 年来中国是希望尝试一些不同的事情。故选B项。 【5题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第四段中“He was delighted to see that residents, dressed stylishly or comfortably, strolled in the streets “as slowly as snails”.( 他很高兴地看到，穿着时髦或舒适的居民在街上“像蜗牛一样慢”地漫步。)”可知，成都居民穿着时尚或舒适，像蜗牛一样慢慢地在街上闲逛，由此可推断出“laid-back”意思是悠闲的。A选项“Leisurely”（悠闲的；闲适的）符合语境。故选A项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段提到“He remembers a wide range of adventures like exploring a local vineyard and local wine in Yinchuan City, a riding performance by a Mongolian ethnic group in the Shuidonggou Horse Riding Show, and then the totally different experience of visiting the Hainan Free Trade Port in the south.( 他记得各种各样的冒险经历，比如在银川市探索当地的葡萄园和当地的葡萄酒，在水洞沟骑马表演中观看蒙古民族的骑马表演，然后参观南方海南自由贸易港的完全不同的体验。)”可推知，这些经历体现了他对中国不同地方文化的探索和喜爱，说明他对中国文化着迷。故选D项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章大意以及第一段“Sandoval, who comes from Los Angeles, has traveled and filmed in over 50 countries across seven continents and now lives in China. “In 2008, tired of my studio work in the U. S,I came to China, thinking I would be here one or two years, but it has turned out to be 16 years!” he said. He hopes his photographs will inspire others to embark on adventures as well.( Sandoval来自洛杉矶，曾在七大洲的50多个国家旅行和拍摄，现在住在中国。“2008年，我厌倦了在美国的工作室工作，来到中国，本以为只待一两年，结果却待了16年！他说。他希望他的照片能激励其他人也开始冒险。)”可知，文章主要讲述了来自美国的摄影师Sandoval来中国的原因、在中国的工作经历以及他对中国不同地方的探索和感受等。由此可知，这篇文章的写作目的是介绍一位外国摄影师在中国的经历。故选D项。 C Artificial intelligence — or AI — is the computer code (代码) that allows a machine to do something that normally requires a human brain. On TikTok, for instance, AI sorts the posts so that the first ones you see are likely to be those you’d prefer. But before an AI can do any of that, developers must train it. And the training consumes energy. AI training is powered mostly by fossil (化石) fuels, according to one of the largest studies of its kind. Less than 25 percent of AIs use low-carbon energy sources such as hydroelectricity and nuclear power during training. In fact, researchers now worry that training’s appetite for energy could soon become a huge problem. The energy to develop AI comes out of the electrical net. And in most parts of the world, making electricity emits (排放) carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases into the air. Language-processing AI systems learn by devouring (吞食) texts in a particular language. This might include “reading” everything ever published online in some language, including libraries full of old books that have been digitized. Such data-intensive training uses a lot of energy. To translate between English and Chinese, for example, an AI model may deal with millions or even billions of translated books and articles. In this way, it learns which words and phrases match. Later, when given a new text, it recommends its own translation. In 2019, researchers calculated the impact of developing AI model named Transformer. It released a massive 626, 000 pounds of carbon dioxide. That’s equal to the greenhouse gases that would be poured by five American cars from when they were made to when they were junked. Today, most AI development happens at data centers. These computer-filled buildings account for some 2 percent US electricity use and 1 percent of global energy use. Some AI experts have sounded an alarm about the threat these energy giants pose. 8. What is AI training mainly energized by? A. Fossil fuels. B. Solar energy. C. Nuclear energy. D. Greenhouse gases. 9. What do we know about the language-processing AI systems? A. They process limited texts. B. They will replace translators. C. They seldom read digital books. D. They are energy-consuming. 10 Why does the author mention Transformer in paragraph 4? A. To highlight its significance. B. To speak highly of AI’s power. C. To demonstrate researchers’ creativity. D. To stress its effect on the environment. 11. What does the author imply in the last paragraph? A. AI’s development poses a threat to data centers. B. The energy consumption of AI can’t be ignored. C. AI is effectively transforming the way we learn. D. People should take action to reduce gas emission. 【答案】8. A 9. D 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了人工智能（AI）训练所消耗的能源问题。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“AI training is powered mostly by fossil (化石) fuels, according to one of the largest studies of its kind.(根据同类研究中规模最大的一项，人工智能训练主要由化石燃料提供动力。)”可知，AI训练主要由化石燃料提供能量。故选A。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Language-processing AI systems learn by devouring (吞食) texts in a particular language. This might include “reading” everything ever published online in some language, including libraries full of old books that have been digitized. Such data-intensive training uses a lot of energy.(语言处理人工智能系统通过大量“吞食”（即阅读）特定语言的文本来进行学习。这可能包括“阅读”某种语言下所有曾在网上发布过的内容，以及已被数字化的满载古老书籍的图书馆。这种数据密集型的训练过程消耗了大量的能源。)”可知，语言处理AI系统需要“吞食”大量的文本，这种数据密集型的训练消耗了大量的能量。故选D。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“In 2019, researchers calculated the impact of developing AI model named Transformer. It released a massive 626, 000 pounds of carbon dioxide. That’s equal to the greenhouse gases that would be poured by five American cars from when they were made to when they were junked.(2019年，研究人员计算了开发名为Transformer的人工智能模型的影响。它释放了62.6万磅的二氧化碳。这相当于五辆美国汽车从制造到报废所排放的温室气体总量。)”可知，作者提到Transformer是为了说明开发这个AI模型释放了大量的二氧化碳，即为了强调其对环境的影响。故选D。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Today, most AI development happens at data centers. These computer-filled buildings account for some 2 percent US electricity use and 1 percent of global energy use. Some AI experts have sounded an alarm about the threat these energy giants pose.(如今，大多数人工智能的开发都发生在数据中心。这些布满计算机的建筑约占美国电力消耗的2%和全球能源消耗的1%。一些人工智能专家对这些能源巨头构成的威胁发出了警报。)”可知，作者在最后一段暗示AI的能源消耗不容忽视。故选B。 D When preparing for a test, most students assume it’s best to simply study the material and try to memorize as much of it as possible. Many tests seemingly reward rote (死记硬背) memorization. But what if students trained by testing themselves instead? Usually, studying is considered a safer bet; why risk producing wrong answers when you can just memorize the right one? Yet it turns out making errors early on can be more helpful for remembering information over time. Cognitive psychologists Henry Roddy Roediger and Jeff Karpicke conducted a study where they had hundreds of students memorize passages from a test-preparation book for the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL). One group memorized these passages by reading them repeatedly, while another group read the passages several times and then completed three tests. The results were surprising: the students who repeatedly studied the material initially performed better, but when they were tested again a week later, the students who tested themselves recalled over 60% of what they had learned, compared to only 40% for the group who repeatedly studied. The testing effect has since been confirmed in many studies under a range of conditions. Its value remains undoubted, but scientists are still debating why it has such a powerful effect on memory. The simplest explanation is that testing exposes our weaknesses. When we test our memories, we expose the weaknesses of existing neuronal (神经元) connections in a way that ultimately strengthens what’s useful and removes what’s not, making the information we attempt to memorize more lasting and easier to recall. To maximize the benefits of the testing effect, it’s important to return to the same information in shorter sessions over several days instead of cramming (塞进) everything into a single night of intense studying. This allows your brain to consolidate the information and create stronger memories. In conclusion, testing is not just a tool for assessing your knowledge but also a powerful learning tool. By embracing errors and actively testing yourself, you can improve your learning and memory. So, instead of avoiding mistakes, embrace them as opportunities for growth and mastery. 12. What do we know about Henry and Jeff’s study? A. Self-testing works only in tasks of memorizing things. B. Those who repeatedly studied performed better later. C. Rote memorization doesn’t work well in the long run. D. The study focused mainly on how to prepare for TOFEL. 13. What happens to the brain when people test their memories? A. Additional neuronal connections in the brain are created. B. The brain processes new information at a higher speed. C. The weak connections between neurons are removed. D. Weak but useful neuronal connections become stronger. 14. What is an effective way to study according to paragraph 4? A. Avoiding making the same mistakes in tests. B. Studying everything intensely on a single night. C. Reviewing in shorter sessions over several days. D. Focusing on what is most likely to be on the test. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Cramming for Exams: A Safer Bet for Success B. The Testing Effect: Why Practice Makes Perfect C. The Power of Testing: An Effective Approach to Learning D. The Secret of Learning: How Brains Process Information 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. C 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述了测试效应作为一种有效的学习方法，通过自我测试可以提高记忆和学习效果。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The results were surprising: the students who repeatedly studied the material initially performed better, but when they were tested again a week later, the students who tested themselves recalled over 60% of what they had learned, compared to only 40% for the group who repeatedly studied.”（结果是令人惊讶的：那些反复学习材料的学生一开始表现更好，但当他们一周后再次接受测试时，那些自我测试的学生回忆起了60%以上所学的内容，而反复学习的学生只回忆起了40%。）可知，死记硬背从长远来看效果并不好。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的“When we test our memories, we expose the weaknesses of existing neuronal (神经元的) connections in a way that ultimately strengthens what’s useful and removes what’s not, making the information we attempt to memorize more lasting and easier to recall. (当我们测试自己的记忆力时，我们会以一种方式暴露现有神经元连接的弱点，这种方式最终会强化有用的连接，去除无用的连接，从而使我们试图记住的信息更加持久，也更容易回想起来。)”可知，测试记忆时，大脑会暴露并强化有用的神经元连接，同时去除无用的连接，由此可知，弱但有用的神经元连接被暴露并得到加强。故选D。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段的“To maximize the benefits of the testing effect, it’s important to return to the same information in shorter sessions over several days instead of cramming (塞进) everything into a single night of intense studying. (为了最大限度地发挥测试效果的益处，重要的是在几天内分多个较短的时段来复习同样的知识内容，而不是把所有东西都集中在一个晚上进行高强度的学习。)”可知，有效的学习方法是分几天进行短时间复习，而不是一晚上突击学习，由此可推知，在几天内分多次短时段复习材料是有效的学习方法。故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段的“Yet it turns out making errors early on can be more helpful for remembering information over time. (然而，事实证明，早期犯错从长远来看可能更有助于记忆信息。)”以及第三段中的“The testing effect has since been confirmed in many studies under a range of conditions. (测试效应已经在多种条件下通过许多研究得到了证实。)”可知，本文的核心在于探讨测试作为一种有效的学习工具的力量，而且测试对学习和记忆的强大效果，所以“测试的力量：一种有效的学习方法。”概括了全文的主题，是最佳标题。故选C。 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，并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Boundaries are personal guidelines that define what is and is not okay in your interpersonal relationships. As everyone has different needs and comfort levels, they may appear different for each person. Establishing healthy boundaries may provide such benefits, as avoiding burnout, boosting self-esteem and maintaining personal space. Once you’ve set your boundaries, it’s crucial to review them on a regular basis to remain relevant to your life circumstances. ___16___ However, the question arises: how can you establish these boundaries in a healthy way? ___17___ The way you set them reflects your attitude to taking responsibility in life. Taking the time to think about your wants and needs in different situations will help you understand how your values influence boundary-setting. Once you have made the list of your values, needs, and wants, you should use knowledge to establish clear boundaries that respect yourself and those around you. Also, when you have identified your boundaries, it is important to communicate them effectively. ___18___ Express your ideas in an open and straightforward manner and speak up for yourself so that others can hear, understand and respect your needs. If tensions arise during a conversation about setting boundaries, you’d better take a step back. Before restarting the conversation, allow yourself or the other person to cool down. ___19___ In addition to the points mentioned above, learning how to say “no” is essential. Saying “yes” to everything can result in stress, burnout, and frustration. Furthermore, it’s vital to evaluate what is acceptable and unacceptable.___20___ If the situation persists, remove yourself from it respectfully. You deserve more than surrounding yourself with people who don’t value your values. A. Initially, identify your personal boundaries. B. Honesty and respect play an essential key role in the process. C. When you feel that someone has crossed your boundaries, remind them. D. Consequently, setting healthy boundaries is essential in social interactions. E. This contributes to finding possible solutions to issues regarding boundary-setting. F. Pick up the conversation unless there appears another argument needed to be settled. G. Keeping saying “no” to things you disapprove of helps to understand yourself better. 【答案】16. D 17. A 18. B 19. E 20. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要讨论了个人界限的重要性、如何设定健康界限、有效沟通界限的方法、学会说“不”以及在界限被侵犯时的应对策略。 【16题详解】 根据上文“Boundaries are personal guidelines that define what is and is not okay in your interpersonal relationships. As everyone has different needs and comfort levels, they may appear different for each person. Establishing healthy boundaries may provide such benefits, as avoiding burnout, boosting self-esteem and maintaining personal space. Once you’ve set your boundaries, it’s crucial to review them on a regular basis to remain relevant to your life circumstances.(界限是个人的准则，它定义了在人际关系中什么是可以的，什么是不可以的。由于每个人都有不同的需求和舒适程度，它们可能对每个人来说都是不同的。建立健康的界限可能会带来这样的好处，比如避免倦怠、增强自尊和保持个人空间。一旦你设定了你的界限，定期回顾它们以保持与你的生活环境相关是至关重要的)”可知，建立健康的界限是非常必要的。故D选项“因此，在社会交往中设定健康的界限是必不可少的”符合语境，故选D。 【17题详解】 由下文“The way you set them reflects your attitude to taking responsibility in life. Taking the time to think about your wants and needs in different situations will help you understand how your values influence boundary-setting. Once you have made the list of your values, needs, and wants, you should use knowledge to establish clear boundaries that respect yourself and those around you.(你设定目标的方式反映了你对生活负责的态度。花点时间想想自己在不同情况下的需求，这将有助于你理解你的价值观是如何影响边界设置的。一旦你列出了你的价值观、需求和愿望，你就应该用知识来建立清晰的界限，尊重你自己和你周围的人)”可知，下文开始讲述确定界限的方法，例如识别和列出自我的价值观、需求和愿望，因此本空应讲述与“确定界限”有关话题。因此，A选项“首先，你应该确定你的个人界限”提出了设定界限的第一步是自我认知，能概括本段主旨，符合题意。故选A。 【18题详解】 由上文“Also, when you have identified your boundaries, it is important to communicate them effectively.(此外，当你确定了自己的界限后，有效地与他们沟通是很重要的)”和下文“Express your ideas in an open and straightforward manner and speak up for yourself so that others can hear, understand and respect your needs.(以开放和直接的方式表达你的想法，说出自己的想法，这样别人就能听到、理解和尊重你的需求)”可知，上文强调有效沟通界限的重要性，下文则提到了具体沟通时的建议，如开放直接地表达、维护自己等，所以本空表达与“沟通技巧”有关话题。B选项“在这个过程中，诚实和尊重起着关键作用”既强调了沟通中的重要态度，也自然过渡到具体的沟通技巧描述，能承上启下，符合题意。故选B。 【19题详解】 由上文“Before restarting the conversation, allow yourself or the other person to cool down.(在重新开始谈话之前，让自己或对方冷静下来)”可知，提到了在对话中出现紧张时应先冷静下来再继续谈话，本空应解释这样做的原因，E选项“这有助于找到关于界限设定问题的可能解决方案”说明了为何需要冷静后再继续对话——为了更有效地解决问题，能承接上文，符合题意。故选E。 【20题详解】 由上文“In addition to the points mentioned above, learning how to say “no” is essential. Saying “yes” to everything can result in stress, burnout, and frustration. Furthermore, it’s vital to evaluate what is acceptable and unacceptable.(除了上面提到的几点，学会如何说“不”也很重要。对所有事情都说“是”会导致压力、倦怠和沮丧。此外，评估什么是可接受的，什么是不可接受的是至关重要的)”和下文“If the situation persists, remove yourself from it respectfully. You deserve more than surrounding yourself with people who don’t value your values.(如果这种情况持续存在，恭敬地离开它。你应该得到更多，而不是让你周围的人不重视你的价值观)”可知，上文提及学会说“不”的重要性，下文则提到了当有人越界时的应对措施及最终可能需要远离不尊重你界限的人，因此本空应表达与“说‘不’的方法”相关话题。因此，C选项“当你觉得有人越界了，提醒他们”作为处理界限被侵犯情况的第一步，与后文的进一步行动相衔接，能承上启下，符合题意。故选C。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。 When the couple had to close their business, they ____21____ almost everything.

My mother was suffering from a rare disease and had to take treatment in London. The day before we boarded the ship, Father sent his five-year-old red heeler (Australian cattle dog), Spider, who was loved by us all, to his friend Sandy, as Sandy was to be his guardian while we were overseas. We didn’t know how long my mother’s treatment would take or how long we would be away. Six weeks later, an airletter arrived from Sandy, giving my father the news that Spider had run away just two weeks after we had sailed. I will always remember my father’s face as he read this news. My mother and I tried to comfort him, knowing in our hearts how useless this was. Sandy had advertised constantly on the media. Despite many “sightings”, the dog was never found. It seemed Spider just kept running and searching for us. My father worried he would be shot or dead from starvation. But our family thought that Father held a secret hope that Spider was still alive. We sailed back to Australia two years later and my father immediately began his own search for Spider. He repeated calls to the people who had said they had seen his dog, but it turned out to be clueless. One cold winter’s Saturday morning, eight months after our return, my father had a call from Gin Gin, 375 kilometers from Toowoomba. An elderly lady living on her own was putting food out “for a very old yellow dog”. This had been going on for a few weeks. Immediately we set off. Five and a half hours later, we found the old house beside the bush (灌木丛). Sadly, the lady told my father that the dog hadn’t been around for a few days. My father had an upset look in his eyes. He put two fingers to his mouth and did his special whistle for Spider. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Suddenly there was a sound in the bush. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Once home we gently cleaned him up. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Suddenly there was a sound in the bush. My father’s eyes lit up immediately. We all looked in the direction of the sound and saw a yellow dog emerge from the bush. It was Spider! He ran towards my father, wagging his tail excitedly. My father kneeled down and hugged him tightly, tears streaming down his face. It was a heartwarming reunion. Once home we gently cleaned him up. He was thin and tired, but still recognized us. We gave him a warm bath and fed him a delicious meal. Spider lay on the floor, looking happy and content. My father sat beside him, stroking his fur and telling him how much he had missed him. It was as if nothing had changed between them. From then on, Spider became a part of our family again, bringing us endless joy and companionship. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者一家从搬家、母亲生病、送走爱犬，到爱犬失踪、父亲和全家人寻找爱犬，并最终重逢的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“突然，灌木丛中传来了声音。”以及第二段首句内容“回到家后，我们轻轻地把他清理干净。”可知，第一段可描写作者他们循声而去找到了爱犬。 ②由第二段首句内容“回到家后，我们轻轻地把他清理干净。”可知，第二段可描写作者一家和爱犬重逢后更加珍惜彼此的陪伴。 2.续写线索：作者八岁时，一家人不得不搬去英国为母亲治病——作者一家不得不将爱犬送给朋友代为照顾——不幸的是，不久后朋友来信告知作者的父亲爱犬跑丢了——朋友一直寻找，可是总也找不到小狗——作者一家后来回到了故乡——他们一直没有放弃寻找小狗——一天，一个老妇人打来电话，说看到了一只黄狗——作者一家前去辨认——到了之后，作者的父亲吹响了特殊的口哨声，灌木丛中立刻传来了声音——作者一家循声寻找，发现那正是他家的爱犬——一家人将小狗带回去，更加珍惜彼此的陪伴 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①看见：see/catch sight of ②拥抱：hug/embrace ③流下：stream down/roll down 情绪类 ①兴奋地：excitedly/with excitement ②高兴的：happy/delighted 【点睛】【高分句型1】My father kneeled down and hugged him tightly, tears streaming down his face. （运用了独立主格结构） 【高分句型2】It was as if nothing had changed between them.（运用了as if引导的表语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 决胜高考——2025届高三年级大联考 英语 注意事项 考生在答题前请认真阅读本注意事项及各题答题要求： 1.本试卷包括选择题和非选择题两部分。选择题从第1页至第10页，非选择题从第10页至第12页。考生答题全部答在答题纸上，答在本试卷上无效。本次考试时间为120分钟，满分150分。考试结束后，请将答题纸交监考老师。 2.答题前，请务必将自己的姓名、学校、班级、座位号、考试证号用0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔填写在答题纸的相应位置，并用2B铅笔将答题纸上考试证号相应的数字涂黑。 3.答选择题必须用2B铅笔把答题纸上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，请用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案。答非选择题必须用0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔写在答题纸上的指定位置，在其它位置答题一律无效。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。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.

Here are four ideas from the literary world that may bring about your own adventures. 1. Louisa May Alcott, Concord, Massachusetts For decades, young readers have been attracted by the adventures detailed in the novel of Little Women. We have the option to visit the home of Louisa May Alcott, the novelist who composed the story around the relationships within her own family. You can take a guided tour and get a view of how the characters’ family lived in the home known as Orchard House. Many of the family’ s treasures remain in the well-preserved structure. 2. Zane Grey’s America Best-selling novelist Zane Grey created strong stories detailing the life and culture of the American West. Through titles like Call of the Canyon, Riders of the Purple Sage and The Thundering Herd, Grey’s tales inspired many to explore a new country. Visit his birthplace in Zanesville, Ohio. You can also visit a copy of his Arizona cottage (the original burned in a 1990 wildfire), which served as his home base while exploring and writing. 3. Where the Wild Things Are Why not use this creative book as the centerpiece of a wild and wonderful weekend with the kids? Read Maurice Sendak’s colourful book, then visit your local park, or walk through a nearby forest and discuss the adventures of young Max, the main character. End the weekend by streaming the Spike Jonze movie of the same name. The whole family will enjoy the mix of real actors and computer cartoons. 4. Jack London, Glen Ellen, California Channel the adventuresome spirit of one of the planet’s most inspired writers with a plan to explore more than 26 miles of hiking, horseback and cycling trails across 1, 400 acres in the Sonoma Valley. Visit the home where London wrote his page-turners. The author of Call of the Wild and White Fang was laid to rest on this landscape that developed his creativity. 1. Which writer created the story based on the writer’s family life? A. Louisa May Alcott. B. Zane Grey C. Maurice Sendak. D. Jack London. 2. What is suggested after reading Where the Wild Things Are? A. Taking a tour to the writer’s childhood home. B. Doing research on the author’s creation process. C. Spending a family weekend of multiple activities. D. Exploring the landscapes of the story setting. 3. What is the purpose of the text? A. To boost the sales of novels. B. To introduce travel journals. C. To inspire literature-related adventures. D. To offer suggestions for story writing. B Sandoval, who comes from Los Angeles, has traveled and filmed in over 50 countries across seven continents and now lives in China. “In 2008, tired of my studio work in the U. S, I came to China, thinking I would be here one or two years, but it has turned out to be 16 years!” he said. He hopes his photographs will inspire others to embark on adventures as well. Sandoval is a professional photographer and learned commercial photography at what was then the Brooks Institute of Photography. With the hope of trying something different for himself, he went to Chengdu in Southwest China to live in October 2008 and has traveled throughout the country since then. In the beginning, he did editorial work for magazines both in and outside Sichuan, such as Vogue. Then he worked with the Sichuan tourism department to produce travel brochures, and also on ad campaigns for destinations for corporate companies. To him, Chengdu is the capital of a laid-back lifestyle. He was delighted to see that residents, dressed stylishly or comfortably, strolled in the streets “as slowly as snails”. Almost a “walking encyclopedia” of Chengdu, Sandoval covered every corner of Chengdu and recorded Chengduese and their lives with his camera, listening to the sound of mahjong being played and music from traditional stringed instruments. He also goes from place to place with his heavy travel kit. The varied culture and vast, beautiful land has kept him in China much longer than he had planned in the beginning. He remembers a wide range of adventures like exploring a local vineyard and local wine in Yinchuan City, a riding performance by a Mongolian ethnic group in the Shuidonggou Horse Riding Show, and then the totally different experience of visiting the Hainan Free Trade Port in the south. He thinks he has done a lot in “this beautiful and vast country” with his “travel photos”. “I try to show people the beauty of where I go. I try to inspire them to travel and go to places. I’m hoping to do more international work,” he said. 4. Why did Sandoval come to China in 2008? A. He was not good at studio work in the U. S. B. He wanted to seek for something different. C. He had a preference for international work. D. He was attracted by China’s natural scenery. 5. What does the underlined word “laid-back” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A. Leisurely. B. Simple. C. Luxurious. D. Healthy. 6. Sandoval’s experiences around China are mentioned in Paragraph 5 to show _______. A. his diverse hobbies B. his desire for new careers C. his superb photo technique D. his fascination for Chinese culture 7. What is the writing purpose of this passage? A. To call on readers to take up photography as a hobby. B. To facilitate the development of tourism in Chengdu. C To praise Sandoval for his work of spreading Chinese culture. D. To introduce the experience of a foreign photographer in China. C Artificial intelligence — or AI — is the computer code (代码) that allows a machine to do something that normally requires a human brain. On TikTok, for instance, AI sorts the posts so that the first ones you see are likely to be those you’d prefer. But before an AI can do any of that, developers must train it. And the training consumes energy. AI training is powered mostly by fossil (化石) fuels, according to one of the largest studies of its kind. Less than 25 percent of AIs use low-carbon energy sources such as hydroelectricity and nuclear power during training. In fact, researchers now worry that training’s appetite for energy could soon become a huge problem. The energy to develop AI comes out of the electrical net. And in most parts of the world, making electricity emits (排放) carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases into the air. Language-processing AI systems learn by devouring (吞食) texts in a particular language. This might include “reading” everything ever published online in some language, including libraries full of old books that have been digitized. Such data-intensive training uses a lot of energy. To translate between English and Chinese, for example, an AI model may deal with millions or even billions of translated books and articles. In this way, it learns which words and phrases match. Later, when given a new text, it recommends its own translation. In 2019, researchers calculated the impact of developing AI model named Transformer. It released a massive 626, 000 pounds of carbon dioxide. That’s equal to the greenhouse gases that would be poured by five American cars from when they were made to when they were junked. Today, most AI development happens at data centers. These computer-filled buildings account for some 2 percent US electricity use and 1 percent of global energy use. Some AI experts have sounded an alarm about the threat these energy giants pose. 8. What is AI training mainly energized by? A. Fossil fuels. B. Solar energy. C. Nuclear energy. D. Greenhouse gases. 9. What do we know about the language-processing AI systems? A. They process limited texts. B. They will replace translators. C. They seldom read digital books. D. They are energy-consuming. 10. Why does the author mention Transformer in paragraph 4? A. To highlight its significance. B. To speak highly of AI’s power. C. To demonstrate researchers’ creativity. D. To stress its effect on the environment. 11. What does the author imply in the last paragraph? A. AI’s development poses a threat to data centers. B. The energy consumption of AI can’t be ignored. C. AI is effectively transforming the way we learn. D. People should take action to reduce gas emission. D When preparing for a test, most students assume it’s best to simply study the material and try to memorize as much of it as possible. Many tests seemingly reward rote (死记硬背) memorization. But what if students trained by testing themselves instead? Usually, studying is considered a safer bet; why risk producing wrong answers when you can just memorize the right one? Yet it turns out making errors early on can be more helpful for remembering information over time. Cognitive psychologists Henry Roddy Roediger and Jeff Karpicke conducted a study where they had hundreds of students memorize passages from a test-preparation book for the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL). One group memorized these passages by reading them repeatedly, while another group read the passages several times and then completed three tests. The results were surprising: the students who repeatedly studied the material initially performed better, but when they were tested again a week later, the students who tested themselves recalled over 60% of what they had learned, compared to only 40% for the group who repeatedly studied. The testing effect has since been confirmed in many studies under a range of conditions. Its value remains undoubted, but scientists are still debating why it has such a powerful effect on memory. The simplest explanation is that testing exposes our weaknesses. When we test our memories, we expose the weaknesses of existing neuronal (神经元的) connections in a way that ultimately strengthens what’s useful and removes what’s not, making the information we attempt to memorize more lasting and easier to recall. To maximize the benefits of the testing effect, it’s important to return to the same information in shorter sessions over several days instead of cramming (塞进) everything into a single night of intense studying. This allows your brain to consolidate the information and create stronger memories. In conclusion, testing is not just a tool for assessing your knowledge but also a powerful learning tool. By embracing errors and actively testing yourself, you can improve your learning and memory. So, instead of avoiding mistakes, embrace them as opportunities for growth and mastery. 12. What do we know about Henry and Jeff’s study? A. Self-testing works only in tasks of memorizing things. B. Those who repeatedly studied performed better later. C. Rote memorization doesn’t work well in the long run. D. The study focused mainly on how to prepare for TOFEL. 13. What happens to the brain when people test their memories? A. Additional neuronal connections in the brain are created. B. The brain processes new information at a higher speed. C. The weak connections between neurons are removed. D. Weak but useful neuronal connections become stronger. 14. What is an effective way to study according to paragraph 4? A. Avoiding making the same mistakes in tests. B. Studying everything intensely on a single night. C. Reviewing in shorter sessions over several days. D. Focusing on what is most likely to be on the test. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Cramming for Exams: A Safer Bet for Success B. The Testing Effect: Why Practice Makes Perfect C. The Power of Testing: An Effective Approach to Learning D.

As everyone has different needs and comfort levels, they may appear different for each person. Establishing healthy boundaries may provide such benefits, as avoiding burnout, boosting self-esteem and maintaining personal space. Once you’ve set your boundaries, it’s crucial to review them on a regular basis to remain relevant to your life circumstances. ___16___ However, the question arises: how can you establish these boundaries in a healthy way? ___17___ The way you set them reflects your attitude to taking responsibility in life. Taking the time to think about your wants and needs in different situations will help you understand how your values influence boundary-setting. Once you have made the list of your values, needs, and wants, you should use knowledge to establish clear boundaries that respect yourself and those around you. Also, when you have identified your boundaries, it is important to communicate them effectively. ___18___ Express your ideas in an open and straightforward manner and speak up for yourself so that others can hear, understand and respect your needs. If tensions arise during a conversation about setting boundaries, you’d better take a step back. Before restarting the conversation, allow yourself or the other person to cool down. ___19___ In addition to the points mentioned above, learning how to say “no” is essential.

My mother was suffering from a rare disease and had to take treatment in London. The day before we boarded the ship, Father sent his five-year-old red heeler (Australian cattle dog), Spider, who was loved by us all, to his friend Sandy, as Sandy was to be his guardian while we were overseas. We didn’t know how long my mother’s treatment would take or how long we would be away. Six weeks later, an airletter arrived from Sandy, giving my father the news that Spider had run away just two weeks after we had sailed. I will always remember my father’s face as he read this news. My mother and I tried to comfort him, knowing in our hearts how useless this was. Sandy had advertised constantly on the media. Despite many “sightings”, the dog was never found. It seemed Spider just kept running and searching for us. My father worried he would be shot or dead from starvation. But our family thought that Father held a secret hope that Spider was still alive. We sailed back to Australia two years later and my father immediately began his own search for Spider. He repeated calls to the people who had said they had seen his dog, but it turned out to be clueless. One cold winter’s Saturday morning, eight months after our return, my father had a call from Gin Gin, 375 kilometers from Toowoomba. An elderly lady living on her own was putting food out “for a very old yellow dog”. This had been going on for a few weeks. Immediately we set off. Five and a half hours later, we found the old house beside the bush (灌木丛). Sadly, the lady told my father that the dog hadn’t been around for a few days. My father had an upset look in his eyes. He put two fingers to his mouth and did his special whistle for Spider. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Suddenly there was a sound in the bush. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Once home we gently cleaned him up. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
