While Kenya endured a fifth year of drought, Pakistan experienced unprecedented floods. Wildfires in Canada and the US have become a regular summer occurrence, but for islands in the Pacific, like Kiribati, sea level rise threatens their land and freshwater resources. So what is the story that you'd like to tell?( 随着全球气温上升，我们的天气模式发生了变化，导致了热浪、干旱、洪水、飓风等。肯尼亚经历了第五年的干旱，而巴基斯坦则经历了前所未有的洪水。加拿大和美国的野火已经成为夏季的常规事件，但对于基里巴斯等太平洋岛屿来说，海平面上升威胁着他们的土地和淡水资源。那么你想讲的故事是什么呢？)”可知，作者列举了不同地区因气候变化而面临的各种问题，如肯尼亚的干旱、巴基斯坦的洪水、加拿大的野火以及太平洋岛国基里巴斯的海平面上升威胁，这些描述提供了关于全球气候变化影响的具体实例，为随后介绍的“2025 Bow Seat Ocean Awareness Student Contest”提供了背景信息。故选D项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据竞赛规则，参赛者可以提交多种类型作品，包括互动与多媒体(Interactive& Multimedia)和电影(Film)，都与视频(video)相关。故选A项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Eligibility(参赛资格) :中“Students can participate as an individual or as a club, class, or group of any size.(学生可以作为个人或俱乐部、班级或任何规模的团体参加。)”可知, 竞赛对参与者的参赛形式没有设定限制。学生既可以以个人身份参加，也可以作为俱乐部、班级或任何形式的团体参与，这意味着无论是一个人还是团队都可以报名参赛。年龄和费用有具体的要求，主题也限制为气候变化。故选D项。 B At 9: 30 a. m. on a Wednesday morning, I received a notification (通知) that I’d already picked up my phone 30 times that day! “11 left until you go over your goal of 41 pickups,” my screen read. “Put your phone down until 9: 52 a. m. ! Enjoy your time living in the moment.” These updates were sent via Moment, an app that tracks my screen time, created by Kevin Holesh in 2014 to fight his own device addiction. He was working as an independent app developer, spending hours each day staring at screens. After work, Holesh found that he was looking mindlessly online instead of talking to his wife or taking his dogs for a walk. “I wanted a way of seeing how much time I was sinking into my phone,” he said. “So I came up with something that could monitor my screen time.” Holesh found that he was spending 75 minutes on his phone a day. He added a function to the app that informed him whenever his screen time was more than 40 minutes. “My phone would make a sound like a bee, and I’d go and do something else. It was like a little angel on my shoulder pushing me in the right direction,” he said. Holesh figured that if the system worked for him, it would work for others, and later that year he made Moment a free app. To date, it has been downloaded 8 million times. Beside, Moment also has a “coach” function, offering guided programs to help users focus and be more productive, for $ 7. 99 a month. “I am so much happier, I sleep better, I read more, I take better care of myself, and most of all I am present in my day-to-day life,” Jack, a user said. Similar comments on Moment reflect a growing consciousness around “digital wellness”, the name given to lifestyle practices that encourage healthy device use. 4. What does the inspiration of Moment come from? A. The creator’s own experience. B. The sound made by honey bees. C. Complaints from family members. D. The widespread digital addiction. 5. What does Moment do at the expected screen time? A. Monitor the screen and keep a record. B. Make a noise to remind the user. C. Turn off the phone immediately. D. Force the user to take a rest. 6. What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 4? A. Persuade readers to buy the app. B. Provide readers with some advice. C. Recommend a coach to the readers. D. Introduce more information of the app. 7. In which part of a website will you find this text? A. Fashion and Business. B. Sports and Entertainment. C. Health and Lifestyle. D. Art and Design. 【答案】4. A 5. B 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇科普类短文阅读。文章主要介绍了Holesh为了戒掉自己对电子设备的依赖，开发了一款免费应用软件Moment。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“I wanted a way of seeing how much time I was sinking into my phone,” he said. “So I came up with something that could monitor my screen time.” Holesh想知道自己花了多少时间沉迷于手机，所以他想出了一个可以监控屏幕时间的东西，从而可以推断出，他开发Moment的灵感来自于创造者自己的体验。故选A。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段He added a function to the app that informed him whenever his screen time was more than 40 minutes. “My phone would make a sound like a bee, and I’d go and do something else. 当屏幕时间超过设定时间时，该功能就会发出像蜜蜂一样的声音通知他，从而可以推断出，Moment会在设定的屏幕时间发出噪音提醒使用者。故选B。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段Beside, Moment also has a “coach” function, offering guided programs to help users focus and be more productive, for $ 7. 99 a month.可知，本段作者主要向读者介绍Moment的其它功能。故选D。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段Similar comments on Moment reflect a growing consciousness around “digital wellness”, the name given to lifestyle practices that encourage及全文内容可知，文章与鼓励健康使用电子设备的生活方式有关，故可以推断出文章选自于网站中的“健康与生活方式”部分。故选C。 C Computer-generated (产生) writers…writing computer-generated stories? Sports Illustrated is the latest media company to see its good name damaged—if not totally dishonest—about who or what is writing its stories at the beginning of the artificial intelligence (AI) age. The once-powerful media company said it was firing a company that produced articles for its website written by writers who clearly don’t exist. This week, the Futurism website reported that Sports Illustrated used stories written by writers it could not identify. Upon questioning Sports Illustrated, Futurism said all of the writers with Al-generated photos disappeared from the magazine’s website. No explanation was offered. Futurism quoted (引用) an unnamed person at the magazine who said AI was used in the creation of some content as well—“no matter how much they say that it’s not.” Sports Illustrated said the articles in question were created by a third-party company, AdVon Commerce, which made the magazine believe that they were written and edited by humans. AdVon had its writers use a pen name, “actions we don’t agree on,” Sports Illustrated said. Earlier this year, experiments with AI went wrong at media companies. Many companies are testing the new technology at a time when human workers fear it could cost jobs. But it doesn’t work in journalism, which builds and markets its values-based products on truth. “Although there’s nothing wrong in media companies’ experimenting with AI, the mistake is in trying to hide it,” said Tom Rosenstiel, a University of Maryland professor who teaches journalism ethnics (新闻道德). “If you want to be in the truth-telling business, you shouldn’t tell lies,” Rosenstiel said, “A secret is a form of lying.” 8. What can we learn about Sports Illustrated according to Paragraph 2? A. It was an honest media company. B. AI might do harm to its good name. C. It fired a company started at an AI Age. D. Al made it the latest technology company. 9. Why did the Futurism question Sports Illustrated? A. Because Sports Illustrated used the same writers to create stories. B. Because AI-generated stories were used on the magazine’s website. C. Because Sports Illustrated quoted an unnamed person at the magazine. D. Because AI-generated photos disappeared from the magazine’s website. 10. Which “cost” below is in the closet meaning to the “cost” in the last paragraph? A. This dictionary cost him 10 dollars. B. The house cost my aunt an arm and a leg. C. Such behaviour could cost you your place in the team. D. I didn’t get my dream sports shoes because they cost a lot. 11. What might be the best title for the text? A. Media Companies that Use AI Tool. B. Writing Computer-generated Stories. C. Al Writing Ruining Media Company’s Fame. D. Firing Companies that Produce Al-written Stories. 【答案】8. B 9. B 10. C 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了《体育画报》利用人工智能撰写文章从而使自己的声誉受损的事情。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Sports Illustrated is the latest media company to see its good name damaged—if not totally dishonest—about who or what is writing its stories at the beginning of the artificial intelligence （AI）age.”（《体育画报》是最新一家因在人工智能时代之初，谁或什么在撰写其报道而名声受损（如果不是完全不诚实的话）的媒体公司。）可知，《体育画报》的人工智能可能会损坏它的好名声。故选B项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“This week, the Futurism website reported that Sports Illustrated used stories written by writers it could not identify. Upon questioning Sports Illustrated, Futurism said all of the writers with Al-generated photos disappeared from the magazine’s website.”（本周，《未来主义》网站报道，《体育画报》使用了它无法识别的作者所写的故事。在询问《体育画报》后，《未来主义》表示，所有使用人工智能生成照片的作者都从该杂志的网站上消失了。）可知，未来派质疑《体育画报》因为该杂志的网站上使用了人工智能生成的故事。故选B项。 【10题详解】 词义猜测题。根据最后一段“Many companies are testing the new technology at a time when human workers fear it could cost jobs.”（许多公司正在测试这项新技术，而人类工人担心它可能会导致cost工作。）可知人类担心因新技术的测试使他们失去工作，推断出划线单词意为“使失去”，和C项“这样的行为会使你失去在团队中的地位”中的cost意思一致。故选C项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据第二段“Sports Illustrated is the latest media company to see its good name damaged—if not totally dishonest—about who or what is writing its stories at the beginning of the artificial intelligence （AI）age. The once-powerful media company said it was firing a company that produced articles for its website written by writers who clearly don’t exist.”（《体育画报》是最新一家因在人工智能时代之初，谁或什么在撰写其报道而名声受损(如果不是完全不诚实的话)的媒体公司。这家一度强大的媒体公司表示，将解雇一家为其网站撰写文章的公司，这些文章的作者显然是不存在的。）可知，文章主要介绍了《体育画报》利用人工智能写文章使自己的声誉受损并遭到质疑，所以C项“人工智能写作毁了媒体公司的声誉”符合题意。故选C项。 D Like many people over the past few years, I have found myself turning to audiobooks as my main means of reading literature. I find it far more comfortable to “read with my ears” while my eyes are resting. My consumption of new books has doubled as a result-but a recent paper makes me wonder if this will come at the price of my comprehension. The study comes from Boaz Keysar and Janet Geipel, both at the University of Chicago, and it draws from the “dual process model” of mental processing. According to this view, we have two ways of assessing information. System 1 is intuitive (直觉的) , relying on natural ability and feeling. It is quick, but likely exposed to misinformation. System 2 is analytical, involving the use of logic reasoning. It is mentally demanding. When it is engaged, we think through the material step by step. For decades, psychologists have designed various tests to determine which of these two systems a person is using. Imagine you’re helping prepare for a small dinner party and are tasked with arranging the dining settings for seven guests. Instinctively, you lay out seven complete sets of cutlery (餐具) . However, your friend mentions that among the guests is a very young child, leading you to rethink your initial set-up. Realizing the child won’t need a standard set of cutlery as the adult, you opt to replace it with a child-friendly spoon. That is the kind of analytical process. Keysar and Geipel’s brilliant idea was to investigate whether the sensory form — seeing vs. Hearing — of the information would make a difference. They found that it did: when answering these kinds of simple questions, participants were more likely to make errors when the sentences were spoken out loud, rather than written, A greater reliance on our feelings could be a problem if we are consuming information that needs logical study. For this reason, I will return to reading non-fiction with my eyes rather than my ears. But I won’t stop listening to novels. I am quite happy to go with the flow of my emotions while my critical mind takes a break. 12. What does the author think of listening to audiobooks? A. It is relaxing. B. It is demanding. C. It is economical. D. It is time-consuming. 13. Which of the following best describes System 2 model? A. Question-centered. B. Fully automatic. C. Fairly reliable. D. Emotion-involved. 14. Why is the dining setting task mentioned in Paragraph 3? A. To present a fact. B. To draw a conclusion. C. To introduce a topic. D. To illustrate a view. 15. What does the author intend to tell us? A. Critical thinking is a must in reading. B. Ways of processing information differ. C. Listening to books comes at a price. D. Reading non-fiction books benefits. 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇议论文。文章主要围绕作者使用有声书作为阅读方式的经历和体验展开，并引入了一项关于信息处理方式的研究，以此为基础探讨了有声书对阅读理解可能产生的影响。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Like many people over the past few years, I have found myself turning to audiobooks as my main means of reading literature. I find it far more comfortable to “read with my ears” while my eyes are resting.(像许多人一样，在过去的几年里，我发现自己把有声读物作为阅读文学作品的主要手段。我发现在眼睛休息的时候“用耳朵阅读”要舒服得多)”以及最后一段“But I won’t stop listening to novels. I am quite happy to go with the flow of my emotions while my critical mind takes a break.(但我不会停止听小说。当我的批判性思维得到休息时，我很高兴随自己的情绪流动而去)”可知，作者认为听有声读物会让人放松。故选A。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“System 2 is analytical, involving the use of logic reasoning. It is mentally demanding. When it is engaged, we think through the material step by step.(系统2是分析性的，涉及逻辑推理的使用。这是精神上的要求。当它参与时，我们一步一步地思考材料)”可知，System 2涉及使用逻辑推理进行信息处理，它要求精神上的努力，通过一步一步地思考材料来得出结论。因此，System 2的结果相对可靠得多。故选C。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“For decades, psychologists have designed various tests to determine which of these two systems a person is using. Imagine you’re helping prepare for a small dinner party and are tasked with arranging the dining settings for seven guests. Instinctively, you lay out seven complete sets of cutlery (餐具) . However, your friend mentions that among the guests is a very young child, leading you to rethink your initial set-up. Realizing the child won’t need a standard set of cutlery as the adult, you opt to replace it with a child-friendly spoon. That is the kind of analytical process.(几十年来，心理学家设计了各种各样的测试来确定一个人在使用这两种系统中的哪一种。想象一下，你正在帮助准备一个小型晚宴，并负责为7位客人安排用餐环境。本能地，你摆出七套完整的餐具。然而，你的朋友提到客人中有一个非常小的孩子，这让你重新考虑你最初的设置。意识到孩子长大后不需要一套标准的餐具，你选择用一个适合孩子的勺子代替它。这是一种分析过程)”可知，第三段通过“安排餐具”的例子，具体说明System 2的逻辑分析过程如何运作，目的是为了支撑前文提出的“双过程模型”理论，即通过实例阐明观点。故选D。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“A greater reliance on our feelings could be a problem if we are consuming information that needs logical study. For this reason, I will return to reading non-fiction with my eyes rather than my ears.(如果我们在消费需要逻辑研究的信息时，更依赖于我们的感觉可能是一个问题。因此，我将重新用眼睛而不是耳朵来阅读非小说类书籍)”以及第二段“According to this view, we have two ways of assessing information. System 1 is intuitive (直觉的) , relying on natural ability and feeling. It is quick, but likely exposed to misinformation. System 2 is analytical, involving the use of logic reasoning. It is mentally demanding. When it is engaged, we think through the material step by step.(根据这种观点，我们有两种评估信息的方法。系统1是直觉的，依靠自然的能力和感觉。这是快速的，但很可能受到错误信息的影响。系统2是分析性的，涉及逻辑推理的使用。这是精神上的要求。当它参与时，我们一步一步地思考材料)”可知，尽管听书让作者增加了阅读量，但研究结果显示，听书在处理某些信息时可能不如阅读书面材料准确。特别是对于那些需要逻辑研究的信息，听书可能导致更多的错误。因此，作者认为听书是有代价的，特别是在理解方面。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可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 If you are trying to assess a person’s character, make sure you do not rely too heavily on factors that can be misleading. Instead, observe the individual’s ability to tell the truth and to commit. ___16___ You can tell a lot about a person’s character by observing how he treats other people. ___17___ It may be difficult to determine how he treats different types of people if you only encounter him in a single environment, such as the workplace. It is often possible, however, to get some idea of his manner of interaction with different types of people through conversation with him. Whether or not a person is honest says a lot about his character. The attitude a person has about honesty can also indicate what type of person he is. ___18___ To some degree the types of lies he may tell and his motives for doing so matter. ___19___ The word “commitment” often causes people to instantly think of close relationships. Whether a person can respect the vows (誓约) and agreements is usually an indication of character. A person’s character is affected by his attitude. ___20___ Attitude can affect many aspects of a person’s life including how hard he works and his ability to be supportive of others. When you are trying to assess someone’s character, remember that it consists of qualities and habits that form his identity. A. More importantly, it’s necessary to continue his inner struggle. B. There are many other things in life that may require commitment. C. This includes both people he knows and people he does not know. D. The level of commitment indicates the type of character he has. E. Observe the person’s conversations and try to determine how often he tells lies. F. Also, pay attention to his attitude and try to distinguish how it impacts his life. G. Some people generally have a negative outlook while others may try to be positive even in difficult situations. 【答案】16. F 17. C 18. E 19. D 20. G 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述了如何评估一个人的性格，介绍了几个相关的方法。 【16题详解】 根据前文“If you are trying to assess a person’s character, make sure you do not rely too heavily on factors that can be misleading. Instead, observe the individual’s ability to tell the truth and to commit. (如果你试图评估一个人的性格，确保你不要过于依赖可能会误导人的因素。相反，观察一个人说真话和承诺的能力。)”可知，在评估一个人性格时不要过于依赖可能误导的因素，而是要观察其说真话和守信的能力，F选项“Also, pay attention to his attitude and try to distinguish how it impacts his life.(同时，注意他的态度，并试着区分它是如何影响他的生活的)”与上文形成递进关系，进一步指出除了观察说真话和守信的能力外，还要注意态度对生活的影响，因此F选项符合题意。故选F。 【17题详解】 根据前文“You can tell a lot about a person’s character by observing how he treats other people.(你可以通过观察一个人如何对待别人来了解他的性格。)”可知，通过观察一个人如何对待他人可以了解他的性格，C选项“This includes both people he knows and people he does not know.(这包括他认识的人和不认识的人)”对上文的“他人”进行了具体说明，即无论是否认识，都是观察的对象，因此C选项符合题意。故选C。 【18题详解】 根据前文“Whether or not a person is honest says a lot about his character. The attitude a person has about honesty can also indicate what type of person he is. (一个人是否诚实在很大程度上反映了他的性格。一个人对诚实的态度也可以表明他是什么类型的人。)”可知，诚实与否能反映一个人的性格，态度也能表明一个人的类型，E选项“Observe the person’s conversations and try to determine how often he tells lies.(观察他的谈话，试着判断他说谎的频率)”与上文形成衔接，指出通过观察谈话来判断诚实程度，是评估性格的一个重要方面，因此E选项符合题意。故选E。 【19题详解】 根据下文“The word ‘commitment’ often causes people to instantly think of close relationships. Whether a person can respect the vows (誓约) and agreements is usually an indication of character.(“守信”通常让人们立刻想到亲密关系，并指出一个人能否尊重誓言和协议通常是性格的体现)”可知，此处强调守信通常让人们立刻想到亲密关系。D选项“The level of commitment indicates the type of character he has.(守信的程度表明了他有什么样的性格)”与下文相呼应，强调了守信程度与性格的紧密关系。因此，D选项符合题意，能够很好地引出下文。故选D。 【20题详解】 根据上文“A person’s character is affected by his attitude. (一个人的态度影响他的性格。)”可知，一个人的性格受到态度的影响，G选项“Some people generally have a negative outlook while others may try to be positive even in difficult situations.(有些人通常持悲观态度，而另一些人即使在困难情况下也可能试图保持乐观)”对“态度”进行了具体说明，即不同的人有不同的态度，这些态度会影响他们的性格，因此G选项符合题意。故选G。 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。 I’m proud to say that I finished my dissertation (学位论文) successfully.

The prize was a shiny gold medal, and every year, students from all the grades would gather in the gym to see who the winners were. I didn’t think too much about how to make it happen — I just wanted to win. However, there was a problem. I didn’t really have an idea for my project. I wasn’t sure what would be impressive enough to win, so I came up with a quick solution: I’d build a rocket. Rockets seemed cool, and I assumed if I made one that looked awesome, that should be enough. So, I went to the store with my mom and grabbed a bunch of supplies: cardboard tubes, glue, markers, and glitter (闪光装饰物). My plan was simple — make the rocket look amazing, and everyone would be impressed. I didn’t bother learning how rockets worked, and I didn’t think about running tests. I figured if it looked good, that would be all I needed to win. For the next few days, I worked hard on making my rocket shine. I glued the cardboard together, added fins to the sides, and covered the whole thing in glitter. It sparkled under the light, and I thought to myself, “This has to be enough.” But at the back of my mind, I knew, the Science Fair was supposed to be about learning and showing something scientific. Still, I ignored that feeling. As the Science Fair approached, I spent all my time on my rocket’s look. I didn’t do any research, didn’t learn about thrust or fuel, and definitely didn’t test anything. I convinced myself that would be enough. The big day finally arrived. I walked into the gym, proudly carrying my glitter-covered rocket. I set it up on the display table and watched as the judges made their way around the room. When they stopped at my project, my heart raced. This was my moment. 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。 One of the judges asked softly, “Can you explain how your rocket works?” ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When the awards were announced, my name wasn’t called. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文 One of the judges asked softly, “Can you explain how your rocket works?” I froze. My stomach dropped. I hadn’t prepared for that question. “Uh…well, it’s a rocket,” I stammered. “It looks really cool and, um, shiny.” The judges raised their eyebrows. One of them asked, “Did you test it to see if it could fly? Did you research how rockets are built?” I felt my face turn red. “No,” I admitted. “I didn’t test it, and I didn’t really learn about rockets.” The judges nodded politely and moved on. My heart sank. Deep down, I knew I hadn’t really tried. When the awards were announced my name wasn’t called. I didn’t win anything. My rocket, with all its glitter and shine, wasn’t enough. It wasn’t about how good it looked; it was about the effort and care that went into the project. I realized then that nothing’s enough if you don’t care enough to do it well. The next year, when the Science Fair came around again, I made sure my project wasn’t just cool to look at. I researched, I tested, and I cared about what I was doing. I didn’t win the gold medal, but I knew I had done my best. And that felt like a victory all on its own. 【解析】 【导语】本文以“我”参加学校科学展览的梦想为线索展开，讲述了“我”为了赢得金牌而制作了一个外表华丽的火箭，却因缺乏科学性和实用性而在展览上遭遇尴尬，最终未能获奖的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“其中一位评委轻声问道：‘你能解释一下你的火箭是如何工作的吗?’”可知，第一段可描写“我”面对评委提问时的尴尬与无奈，承认自己没有进行任何科学研究或测试。 ②由第二段首句内容“当奖项公布时，我的名字没有被叫到。”可知，第二段可描写“我”未能获奖后的反思与成长，以及第二年科学展览时“我”的改变和收获。 2续写线索：评委提问——我尴尬回答——评委失望离开——我未能获奖——我反思成长——第二年科学展览——我认真准备——我虽未获奖但感到满足 3.词汇激活： 行为类： ①研究：research/study ②测试：test/try out ③来临：come around/approach/arrive 情绪类： ①口吃：stammer/stutter ②礼貌地：politely/with courtesy 【点睛】[高分句型1] I realized then that nothing’s enough if you don’t care enough to do it well.

B At 9: 30 a. m. on a Wednesday morning, I received a notification (通知) that I’d already picked up my phone 30 times that day! “11 left until you go over your goal of 41 pickups,” my screen read. “Put your phone down until 9: 52 a. m. ! Enjoy your time living in the moment.” These updates were sent via Moment, an app that tracks my screen time, created by Kevin Holesh in 2014 to fight his own device addiction. He was working as an independent app developer, spending hours each day staring at screens. After work, Holesh found that he was looking mindlessly online instead of talking to his wife or taking his dogs for a walk. “I wanted a way of seeing how much time I was sinking into my phone,” he said. “So I came up with something that could monitor my screen time.” Holesh found that he was spending 75 minutes on his phone a day. He added a function to the app that informed him whenever his screen time was more than 40 minutes. “My phone would make a sound like a bee, and I’d go and do something else. It was like a little angel on my shoulder pushing me in the right direction,” he said. Holesh figured that if the system worked for him, it would work for others, and later that year he made Moment a free app. To date, it has been downloaded 8 million times. Beside, Moment also has a “coach” function, offering guided programs to help users focus and be more productive, for $ 7. 99 a month. “I am so much happier, I sleep better, I read more, I take better care of myself, and most of all I am present in my day-to-day life,” Jack, a user said. Similar comments on Moment reflect a growing consciousness around “digital wellness”, the name given to lifestyle practices that encourage healthy device use. 4. What does the inspiration of Moment come from? A. The creator’s own experience. B. The sound made by honey bees. C. Complaints from family members. D. The widespread digital addiction. 5. What does Moment do at the expected screen time? A. Monitor the screen and keep a record. B. Make a noise to remind the user. C. Turn off the phone immediately. D. Force the user to take a rest. 6. What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 4? A. Persuade readers to buy the app. B. Provide readers with some advice. C. Recommend a coach to the readers. D. Introduce more information of the app. 7. In which part of a website will you find this text? A. Fashion and Business. B. Sports and Entertainment. C. Health and Lifestyle. D. Art and Design. C Computer-generated (产生) writers…writing computer-generated stories? Sports Illustrated is the latest media company to see its good name damaged—if not totally dishonest—about who or what is writing its stories at the beginning of the artificial intelligence (AI) age. The once-powerful media company said it was firing a company that produced articles for its website written by writers who clearly don’t exist. This week, the Futurism website reported that Sports Illustrated used stories written by writers it could not identify. Upon questioning Sports Illustrated, Futurism said all of the writers with Al-generated photos disappeared from the magazine’s website. No explanation was offered. Futurism quoted (引用) an unnamed person at the magazine who said AI was used in the creation of some content as well—“no matter how much they say that it’s not.” Sports Illustrated said the articles in question were created by a third-party company, AdVon Commerce, which made the magazine believe that they were written and edited by humans. AdVon had its writers use a pen name, “actions we don’t agree on,” Sports Illustrated said. Earlier this year, experiments with AI went wrong at media companies. Many companies are testing the new technology at a time when human workers fear it could cost jobs. But it doesn’t work in journalism, which builds and markets its values-based products on truth. “Although there’s nothing wrong in media companies’ experimenting with AI, the mistake is in trying to hide it,” said Tom Rosenstiel, a University of Maryland professor who teaches journalism ethnics (新闻道德). “If you want to be in the truth-telling business, you shouldn’t tell lies,” Rosenstiel said, “A secret is a form of lying.” 8 What can we learn about Sports Illustrated according to Paragraph 2? A. It was an honest media company. B. AI might do harm to its good name. C. It fired a company started at an AI Age. D. Al made it the latest technology company. 9. Why did the Futurism question Sports Illustrated? A. Because Sports Illustrated used the same writers to create stories. B. Because AI-generated stories were used on the magazine’s website. C. Because Sports Illustrated quoted an unnamed person at the magazine. D. Because AI-generated photos disappeared from the magazine’s website. 10. Which “cost” below is in the closet meaning to the “cost” in the last paragraph? A. This dictionary cost him 10 dollars. B. The house cost my aunt an arm and a leg. C. Such behaviour could cost you your place in the team. D I didn’t get my dream sports shoes because they cost a lot. 11. What might be the best title for the text? A. Media Companies that Use AI Tool. B. Writing Computer-generated Stories. C. Al Writing Ruining Media Company’s Fame. D. Firing Companies that Produce Al-written Stories. D Like many people over the past few years, I have found myself turning to audiobooks as my main means of reading literature. I find it far more comfortable to “read with my ears” while my eyes are resting. My consumption of new books has doubled as a result-but a recent paper makes me wonder if this will come at the price of my comprehension. The study comes from Boaz Keysar and Janet Geipel, both at the University of Chicago, and it draws from the “dual process model” of mental processing. According to this view, we have two ways of assessing information. System 1 is intuitive (直觉的) , relying on natural ability and feeling. It is quick, but likely exposed to misinformation. System 2 is analytical, involving the use of logic reasoning. It is mentally demanding. When it is engaged, we think through the material step by step. For decades, psychologists have designed various tests to determine which of these two systems a person is using. Imagine you’re helping prepare for a small dinner party and are tasked with arranging the dining settings for seven guests. Instinctively, you lay out seven complete sets of cutlery (餐具) . However, your friend mentions that among the guests is a very young child, leading you to rethink your initial set-up. Realizing the child won’t need a standard set of cutlery as the adult, you opt to replace it with a child-friendly spoon. That is the kind of analytical process. Keysar and Geipel’s brilliant idea was to investigate whether the sensory form — seeing vs. Hearing — of the information would make a difference. They found that it did: when answering these kinds of simple questions, participants were more likely to make errors when the sentences were spoken out loud, rather than written, A greater reliance on our feelings could be a problem if we are consuming information that needs logical study. For this reason, I will return to reading non-fiction with my eyes rather than my ears. But I won’t stop listening to novels.

The prize was a shiny gold medal, and every year, students from all the grades would gather in the gym to see who the winners were. I didn’t think too much about how to make it happen — I just wanted to win. However, there was a problem. I didn’t really have an idea for my project. I wasn’t sure what would be impressive enough to win, so I came up with a quick solution: I’d build a rocket. Rockets seemed cool, and I assumed if I made one that looked awesome, that should be enough. So, I went to the store with my mom and grabbed a bunch of supplies: cardboard tubes, glue, markers, and glitter (闪光装饰物). My plan was simple — make the rocket look amazing, and everyone would be impressed. I didn’t bother learning how rockets worked, and I didn’t think about running tests. I figured if it looked good, that would be all I needed to win. For the next few days, I worked hard on making my rocket shine. I glued the cardboard together, added fins to the sides, and covered the whole thing in glitter. It sparkled under the light, and I thought to myself, “This has to be enough.” But at the back of my mind, I knew, the Science Fair was supposed to be about learning and showing something scientific. Still, I ignored that feeling. As the Science Fair approached, I spent all my time on my rocket’s look. I didn’t do any research, didn’t learn about thrust or fuel, and definitely didn’t test anything. I convinced myself that would be enough. The big day finally arrived. I walked into the gym, proudly carrying my glitter-covered rocket. I set it up on the display table and watched as the judges made their way around the room. When they stopped at my project, my heart raced. This was my moment. 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。 One of the judges asked softly, “Can you explain how your rocket works?” ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When the awards were announced, my name wasn’t called. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
