For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank. No Filming at Concerts and Movie Theaters on Phones “Please, no flash photography.” Polite requests like this can be found in museums all over the world, but they generally don’t discourage people from taking photos of 1 they feel like. The same goes for concerts, movie theaters and other places 2 people routinely ignore filming restrictions. A new patent from Apple may block that rule-breaking feature—on phones at least. The patent, 3 (award) to Apple today, outlines a system which would allow venues, like concert halls or theaters, to use an infrared emitter (红外发射器) to remotely disable the camera function on smartphones. According to the patent, infrared beams could be picked up by the camera, and interpreted by the smartphone as a command 4 (block) the user from taking any photos or videos. Many musicians and performers have banned cellphones from their shows 5 they object to the free footage circulating around the web. 6 this, images still manage to leak out. Prince’s last concert before he passed away in April was supposed to be cellphone-free—it apparently wasn’t. If Apple’s patent 7 (introduce) into iPhone software, with venues putting infrared emitters around their stage, leaks like this could potentially stop happening. But the patent also raises questions about the sort of power that this technology would be handing over to 8 with more immoral intentions. Given the company’s rigid support of personal privacy when it comes to police requests to break into users’ devices, it’s possible that Apple just 9 (patent) the technology so that no one else will use it. But who knows, if it does intend to introduce this feature to future operating systems, sales of camcorders, or even GoPros, could get a much-needed boost, as people try to avoid 10 (use) the prohibitive software. 【参考答案】 1．what/whatever/something/anything 2．where 3．awarded 4．to block 5．because/as/since 6．Despite 7．is introduced 8．someone/those 9．patented 10．using 【语篇解读】本文是一篇新闻报道。苹果公司刚刚为一个系统申请了专利，该系统将允许音乐厅或剧院等场所使用红外发射器远程禁用智能手机上的摄像头功能。根据该专利，红外光束可以被相机拾取，并被智能手机解读为阻止用户拍摄任何照片或视频的命令。 【详情解析】 1．考查连词或者代词。句意：像这样礼貌的要求在世界各地的博物馆都可以找到，但它们通常不会阻止人们拍摄自己喜欢的东西。分析句子可知，空格处为介词of的宾语。根据句意，此处指物，可译为“东西；事物”，可以用what(ever)连接宾语从句，或者something/anything为先行词，they feel like是省略了关系代词的定语从句。故填what(ever)/something/anything。 2．考查定语从句。句意：音乐会、电影院和其他人们经常忽视拍摄限制的地方也是如此。分析句子可知，此处是限定性定语从句。先行词为places，关系词在定语从句中作地点状语，故用关系副词where引导定语从句。故填where。 3．考查过去分词。句意：在今天授予苹果的这项专利概述了一种系统，该系统将允许音乐厅或剧院等场所使用红外发射器远程禁用智能手机上的摄像头功能。分析句子可知，空格处应填入非谓语动词作定语。被修饰词 The patent与award是逻辑上的动宾关系，故用过去分词。故填awarded。 4．考查动词不定式。句意：根据该专利，红外光束可以被相机拾取，并被智能手机解读为阻止用户拍摄任何照片或视频的命令。分析句子可知，空格处应填入非谓语动词。根据句意，此处是非谓语动词作定语修饰command ，表目的，应用动词不定式。故填to block。 5．考查状语从句。句意：许多音乐家和表演者已经禁止手机参加他们的演出，因为他们反对网络上流传的免费视频。分析句子可知，空格处应填入状语从句的引导词。由句意可知，此处表示原因，应用because/as/since引导原因状语从句。故填because/as/since。 6．考查介词。句意：尽管如此，图像仍然会泄露出去。分析句子可知，空格处应填入介词。根据句意，此处指“虽然；尽管”，应用介词despite，置于句首，首字母应大写。故填Despite。 7．考查动词的时态、语态以及虚拟语气。句意：如果苹果的专利被引入iPhone软件，在舞台周围放置红外发射器，这样的泄漏可能会停止发生。分析句子可知，空格处应填入谓语动词。根据主句内容可知，此处条件状语从句应用一般现在时态。主语Apple’s patent 与动词introduce是逻辑上的动宾关系，故用被动语态。故填is introduced。 8．考查代词。句意：但这项专利也引发了人们的疑问，即这项技术将把什么样的权力交给意图更不道德的人。分析句子可知，空格处应填入代词作宾语。根据句意，此处指人，应使用someone/those作宾语。故填someone/those。 9．考查时态。句意：考虑到该公司在警方要求侵入用户设备时对个人隐私的严格支持，苹果可能只是为这项技术申请了专利，这样其他人就不会使用它。分析句子可知，空格处作谓语。根据上文可知，“苹果为这项技术申请专利”已经发生，故用一般过去时。故填patented。 10．考查动名词。句意：但谁知道呢，如果它真的打算在未来的操作系统中引入这一功能，摄像机甚至GoPros的销售可能会得到急需的提振，因为人们试图避免使用这种令人望而却步的软件。根据空前的 avoid 可知，空格处应填入动名词作宾语。故填using。 Section B Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box.

Therefore, it holds a mysterious 11 for me. In my memory, the valley was quiet and calm, only to see the wheat all over the mountains waving together in rhythm when the wind blew through, like a ballet troupe. The sun rose every morning as usual, sweeping across the valley and ultimately falling behind the peaks. The snow that falls in winter always melts in spring, bringing new hope to this nature where everything was pleasant and beautiful. Led by fate, I have became an environmentalist and had the honor of being invited to address students about my green lifestyle for a long time. The students were surprised at my lifestyle and maybe they thought my lifestyle was no longer suitable for modern life. Fortunately, they were still listened to whole lecture, saluting or 12 me——to some extent the applause implied their encouragement to me. As I began to interact with them under the stage, I was 13 by kids’ lack of knowledge of nature so that they had little knowledge of protecting environment. After the address, I put up a stand in the 14 offering green food, hoping them interested in it to get the 15 experiencing a first-hand feeling of the green lifestyle no one shows any interest in. So I decided to team up with the concert 16 to run a campaign: “anyone who can answer a(n) 17 environmental question is qualified to attend the concert. Soon the music can 18 them coming here”. Since then , I have been considering why kids today do not have the same deep appreciation for nature that I do. One of the significant factors may be that the former rural civilization has been replaced by the urban civilization. In the past, the poor played the 19 role in the nature, so they cleared the wasteland, planted crops and reproduced civilization. With the massive invasion of industrialization and urbanization, people were forced to move away from nature. The struggle between tradition and modernity, the confrontation between humans and nature has led people to believe that they are the masters of the universe. Is this really the case? It is time to think about who 20 us to destroy nature. 【参考答案】 11．D 12．A 13．C 14．E 15．G 16．H 17．B 18．I 19．J 20．K 【语篇解读】本文是夹叙夹议文。表达了作者对自然的深厚感情，对现代人与自然关系变化的思考，以及自己作为环保人士的努力和遭遇。 【详情解析】 11．考查名词。句意：因此，它对我有一种神秘的吸引力。根据句子结构分析，此处应该填入名词。而且结合下文中的景色描写以及 where everything was pleasant and beautiful 可知，此处句意为“因此，它对我有一种神秘的吸引力(fascination)”名词作宾语，故选D。 12．考查动词。句意：幸运的是，他们整个讲座都在听，向我致敬或鼓掌——在某种程度上，掌声暗示着他们对我的鼓励。根据句子结构分析，此处or连接两个动词，应该填入动词的现在分词形式。而且根据下文“to some extent the applause implied their encouragement tome”的提示，可知，此处句意为“幸运的是，他们仍然听了整个讲座，在某种程度上向我致敬或鼓掌(applauding)”，故选A。 13．考查动词。句意：当我开始在台下与他们互动时，我惊讶于孩子们对自然的认识不足，他们对保护环境的知识很少。根据句子结构分析，此处为被动语态，需要填入动词的过去分词形式。而且根据上文可知作者是一个环保主义者，又根据下文“they had little knowledge of protecting environment”提示，此处句意为“被孩子们缺乏保护自然的知识所震惊(be struck by)”，故此处考查的是固定搭配 be struck by意为“被...所侵袭被...所触动；被...所迷惑”，故选 C。 14．考查名词。句意：演讲结束后，我在后座设立了一个展台，希望那些对此感兴趣的人能够亲自体验一下绿色生活方式，但没有人表现出任何兴趣。结合上文可知，作者做了一场关于环保的演讲，而且根据句子结构分析，此处应该填入名词，故可推测，作者是在演讲场地设置的摊位，故此处句意最有可能是“演讲结束后，我在后座 (back-seat) 设立了一个展台”，故选 E。 15．考查名词。句意：演讲结束后，我在后座设立了一个展台，希望那些对此感兴趣的人能够亲自体验一下绿色生活方式，但没有人表现出任何兴趣。结合上文作者设置了一个展台，可知此处讲述的还是同一件事情故可推知，此处句意为“希望对它感兴趣的学生能够在展台(stand)上亲身体验”名词作定语，故选 G。 16．考查名词。句意：所以我决定和音乐会的发起人合作发起一项活动：“任何能回答一个入门级环境问题的人都有资格参加音乐会。”根据文章分析，此处应该是音乐会的相关负责人与作者一起举办了活动，故可推知此处句意为“作者决定与音乐会发起人(promoter) 合作开展一项活动”，名词作宾语。故选 H。 17．考查形容词。句意：所以我决定和音乐会的发起人合作发起一项活动：“任何能回答一个入门级环境问题的人都有资格参加音乐会。”根据句子结构分析，此处应该填入修饰词，及对环境问题的修饰词,故此处句意为“任何能回答入门级(entry-level) 环境问题的人都有资格参加音乐会”名词作定语，故选B。 18．考查动词。句意：很快音乐就能吸引他们来这里。据句子结构分析，此处缺少动词，而且根据上文提及的音乐会活动可知，此处句意为“很快音乐就把他们吸引(hook) 到这里来了”，故选I。 19．考查形容词。句意：在过去，穷人在自然中起着主导作用，他们清理荒地，种植庄稼，繁衍文明。根据固定搭配可知，此处应填入一个形容词,而且根据上一句“The once rural civilization has been replaced by the urban civilization”可知，此处想要表达的是“在过去，穷人在大自然中起着主导 (dominant)作用”，故选J。 20．考查动词。句意：是时候想想是谁赋予我们破坏自然的权力了。根据句子结构分析可知，此处为定语从句，定语从句中缺少谓语动，而且结合上文作者提及的工业化和城市化带来的变化，可推知，此处句意“是时候想想是谁赋予了 (empowered)我们破坏自然的力量了”，故选K。 II.Reading Comprehension (共45分。 41-55每题1分；56-70每题2分) Section A Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. My father decided to start learning French when he was 57. On the surface, his retirement hobby seems a little random — our family has no connection to French-speaking countries — but his 21 ran deeper than a passion for cakes. My grandmother developed signs of Alzheimer’s disease (阿尔兹海默症) in her early 70s, and studies suggest that being bilingual, that is, being able to speak two languages equally well, can 22 the start of the condition by up to five years. Drawn by that 23 benefit, many people have attempted to pick up a new language in adulthood. Lots of activities are linked to better brain health in old age, like getting more education when you’re younger and physical activity. Experts say regularly speaking multiple languages may be especially 24 though. “We use language in all aspects of daily life, so a bilingual brain is 25 working,” said Mark Antoniou, a professor at Western Sydney University who specializes in bilingualism. The age at which you learn another language appears to be less important than how 26 you speak it. The cognitive (认知的) benefit is from having to 27 your mother tongue, which your brain is forced to do if you’re trying to recall the right words in another language. So if the second language is used a lot, you’re getting that cognitive 28 . That process is called cognitive inhibition. In theory, by improving these types of processes, the brain becomes stronger to the 29 caused by diseases like dementia. The stronger your mental power, the thinking goes, the longer you can function normally, even if your brain health starts to 30 . However, evidence for the benefits of learning a second language as a hobby in your 60s is 31 . Research by Dr. Antoniou and colleagues found that while Chinese adults 60 and up improved on cognition tests after a six-month language learning program, people who played games like Sudoku did as well. Two more recent studies on the topic found virtually no 32 in cognitive performance after people took part in language-learning programs. The scientists who conducted those studies offered a few potential 33 . One is that the participants were highly motivated volunteers, who may have already been at peak performance for their age, making it hard to see any 34 . Another is that the language interventions were perhaps too short. The handful of studies looking into the issue have used language lessons that were very different in their 35 and frequency. Some studies taught participants for eight months, others for just one very intense week. 21．A．affection B．contribution C．motivation D．struggle 22．A．delay B．prevent C．signal D．stimulate 23．A．additional B．educational C．lasting D．potential 24．A．beneficial B．common C．impractical D．rare 25．A．carelessly B．constantly C．creatively D．delicately 26．A．long B．often C．soon D．well 27．A．command B．practice C．restrict D．spread 28．A．function B．psychology C．system D．training 29．A．damages B．operations C．pains D．signs 30．A．decline B．improve C．matter D．restore 31．A．available B．mounting C．stronger D．weaker 32．A．difference B．involvement C．point D．reduction 33．A．applications B．explanations C．findings D．suggestions 34．A．diversities B．improvements C．outcomes D．possibilities 35．A．content B．intention C．length D．requirement 【参考答案】 21． C 22．A 23．D 24．A 25．B 26．B 27．C 28．D 29．A 30．A 31．D 32．A 33．B 34．B 35．C 【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了能说两种语言，可以将痴呆症发病时间推迟至多5年，由于这种潜在的好处，许多人试图在成年后学习一门新的语言。专家表示，经常说多种语言可能特别有益。 【详情解析】 21．考查名词词义辨析。句意：从表面上看，他的退休爱好似乎有点随意——我们家与法语国家没有任何联系——但他的动机比对蛋糕的热爱更深层次。A. affection喜爱；B. contribution贡献；C. motivation动机；D. struggle努力。根据上文“My father decided to start learning French when he was 57.(我父亲在57岁时决定开始学习法语)”可知，此处指父亲学习法语的动机比对蛋糕的热爱更深层次。故选C。 22．考查动词词义辨析。句意：我的祖母在70岁出头时出现了阿尔茨海默氏症的迹象，研究表明，会说双语，也就是能说两种语言，可以将这种疾病的发病时间推迟至多5年。A. delay推迟；B. prevent阻止；C. signal示意；D. stimulate激励。根据后文“benefit, many people have attempted to pick up a new language in adulthood”可知，此处指研究表明，会说双语，也就是能说两种语言，可以将这种疾病的发病时间推迟至多5年。故选A。 23．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：由于这种潜在的好处，许多人试图在成年后学习一门新的语言。A. additional附加的；B. educational教育的；C. lasting持久的；D. potential潜在的。结合上文提到研究表明，会说双语，也就是能说两种语言，可以将痴呆症的发病时间推迟至多5年，所以是潜在的好处，故选D。 24．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：专家表示，经常说多种语言可能特别有益。A. beneficial有益的；B. common共同的；C. impractical不明智的；D. rare罕见的。根据上文“Lots of activities are linked to better brain health in old age, like getting more education when you’re younger and physical activity.(许多活动都与老年时更好的大脑健康有关，比如年轻时接受更多的教育和体育锻炼)”提到了许多活动都与老年时更好的大脑健康有关，比如年轻时接受更多的教育和体育锻炼，而专家表示经常说多种语言可能特别有益。故选A。 25．考查副词词义辨析。句意：西悉尼大学专门研究双语的教授马克·安东尼奥说：“我们在日常生活的各个方面都使用语言，所以双语大脑一直在工作。”A. carelessly马虎地；B. constantly不断地；C. creatively创造性地；D. delicately微妙地。根据上文“We use language in all aspects of daily life, so a bilingual brain is”指会说双语的大脑一直在工作。故选B。 26．考查副词词义辨析。句意：你学习另一门语言的年龄似乎没有你说这门语言的频率重要。A. long长地；B. often经常；C. soon很快；D. well好地。根据上文“regularly speaking”可知，学习另一门语言的年龄似乎没有你说这门语言的频率重要。故选B。 27．考查动词词义辨析。句意：认知上的好处是必须限制你的母语，如果你试图用另一种语言回忆正确的单词，你的大脑就会被迫这样做。A. command命令；B. practice练习；C. restrict限制；D. spread传播。根据后文“your mother tongue, which your brain is forced to do if you’re trying to recall the right words in another language”可知，如果你试图用另一种语言回忆正确的单词，你的大脑就会被迫限制说你的母语。故选C。 28．考查名词词义辨析。句意：所以如果经常使用第二语言，你就会得到认知训练。A. function功能；B. psychology心理学；C. system系统；D. training训练。根据上文“if the second language is used a lot, you’re getting that cognitive”可知，如果经常使用第二语言，你就会得到认知训练。故选D。 29．考查名词词义辨析。句意：从理论上讲，通过改善这些类型的过程，大脑会变得更强大，以抵御痴呆症等疾病造成的损害。A. damages破坏；B. operations运作；C. pains痛苦；D. signs迹象。根据后文“caused by diseases like dementia”指痴呆症等疾病造成的损害。故选A。 30．考查动词词义辨析。句意：这种想法认为，你的精神力量越强大，即使你的大脑健康状况开始下降，你也能正常工作的时间越长。A. decline下降；B. improve改善；C. matter重要；D. restore恢复。根据后文“The stronger your mental power, the thinking goes, the longer you can function normally, even if your brain health starts to”中even if表示让步，可知你的精神力量越强大，即使你的大脑健康状况开始下降，你也能正常工作的时间越长。故选A。 31．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：然而，对于60多岁的人来说，将学习第二语言作为一种爱好有好处的证据并不明显。A. available可用的；B. mounting上升的；C. stronger更强壮的；D. weaker较弱的。根据后文“Research by Dr. Antoniou and colleagues found that while Chinese adults 60 and up improved on cognition tests after a six-month language learning program, people who played games like Sudoku did as well.(安东尼奥博士及其同事的研究发现，虽然60岁及以上的中国成年人在接受了六个月的语言学习项目后，在认知测试中有所提高，但玩数独等游戏的人也有同样的表现)”可知，研究表明对于60多岁的人来说，将学习第二语言作为一种爱好有好处的证据并不明显。故选D。 32．考查名词词义辨析。句意：最近关于这个话题的两项研究发现，参加语言学习项目后，人们的认知表现几乎没有什么不同。A. difference差异；B. involvement参与；C. point要点；D. reduction减少。上文提到对于60多岁的人来说，将学习第二语言作为一种爱好有好处的证据并不明显，即人们的认知表现几乎没有什么不同。故选A。 33．考查名词词义辨析。句意：进行这些研究的科学家提供了一些可能的解释。A. applications应用；B. explanations解释；C. findings发现；D. suggestions建议。后文“Another is that the language interventions were perhaps too short.(另一个原因是语言干预可能太短了)”主要给出了这一现象的两种解释。故选B。 34．考查名词词义辨析。句意：一是参与者都是非常积极的志愿者，他们的表现可能已经达到了同龄人的最高水平，因此很难看到任何改善。A. diversities多样性；B. improvements改善；C. outcomes结果；D. possibilities可能性。根据上文“the participants were highly motivated volunteers, who may have already been at peak performance for their age”可知，参与者都是非常积极的志愿者，他们的表现可能已经达到了同龄人的最高水平，因此很难看到任何改善。故选B。 35．考查名词词义辨析。句意：调查这个问题的少数研究使用了在长度和频率上都大不相同的语言课程。A. content内容；B. intention意图；C. length长度；D. requirement要求。根据上文“Another is that the language interventions were perhaps too short.(另一个原因是语言干预可能太短了)”可知，此处指使用在长度和频率上都大不相同的语言课程。故选C。 Section B Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. A Attempts to genetically engineer the American chestnut tree (Darling 58) have failed, exposing the risks of rushed solutions to complex problems. In December 2023, the American Chestnut Foundation (TACF) announced it was ending its years-long effort to create a blight-resistant chestnut. These trees grew poorly, failed to resist disease, and often died. The American chestnut, once abundant in Eastern U.S. forests, was destroyed by blight in the early 1900s. Some surviving trees sprouted from stumps or resisted the disease naturally. Efforts to restore the species have divided scientists into two camps: one advocating for natural restoration and the other for genetic engineering (GE). The GE approach started in 1989, led by researchers at SUNY-ESF with backing from industry players like Duke Energy, and Monsanto. In 2020, researchers sought USDA approval to deregulate Darling 58. The tree was engineered with a wheat gene to combat the acid produced by chestnut blight. However, critics argued the testing period was too short to predict the tree’s long-term impact. The proposed plan to spread GE traits through wild forests sparked fears of ecological harm. By 2023, it was revealed that years of research had mistakenly used the wrong tree variety (Darling 54). TACF withdrew support, citing poor results, reduced survival rates, and commercial conflicts involving a for-profit company. Despite setbacks, SUNY-ESF continues to push for USDA approval, claiming the trees are safe. Meanwhile, organizations like the American Chestnut Cooperators Foundation focus on natural methods, breeding pure chestnuts with blight resistance. Hybridization with Chinese chestnuts is another method under development. The Darling 58 debacle highlights the risks of genetic engineering and commercial motives behind GE trees. Critics argue that GE is less about forest health and more about profits from faster-growing or industrially modified trees. As the debate continues, the lesson remains clear: science must proceed cautiously, especially when dealing with long-living species like trees. 36．The primary purpose of this passage is to ________. A．criticize the use of genetic engineering on chestnut trees in forest restoration. B．describe the main history of the American chestnut tree’s decline since the 1900s. C．explain the controversy surrounding the restoration of the American chestnut tree. D．promote natural breeding as the best solution for chestnut tree restoration. 37．Why did the USDA petition for Darling 58 face criticism? A．The testing period was not long enough to predict long-term effects. B．The genetically engineered trees were not resistant to blight. C．The USDA was accused of favoring genetic engineering companies. D．The petition did not include input from environmental scientists. 38．According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE? A．Darling 58 chestnut trees were approved for widespread planting in 2023. B．Natural methods of restoring the American chestnut show no promise. C．Critics believe the genetic engineering is profit-driven rather than ecological. D．TACF fully supports SUNY-ESF’s efforts with Darling 58 chestnut trees. 39．What can be inferred about releasing genetically engineered trees into the wild? A．It may lead to deregulation and commercialization of GE trees. B．It will rapidly restore ecosystems with minimal risks. C．It proves corporate interests align with environmental goals. D．It shows GE is more reliable than natural restoration. 【参考答案】36．C 37．A 38．C 39．A 【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了美洲栗树进行基因工程达林58宣告失败，暴露了其中存在的一些问题和争议。 【详情解析】 36．推理判断题。根据第一段“Attempts to genetically engineer the American chestnut tree (Darling 58) have failed, exposing the risks of rushed solutions to complex problems. In December 2023, the American Chestnut Foundation (TACF) announced it was ending its years-long effort to create a blight-resistant chestnut. These trees grew poorly, failed to resist disease, and often died.(对美洲栗树进行基因工程改造的尝试（达林58）失败了，这暴露了匆忙解决复杂问题的风险。2023年12月，美国栗子基金会（TACF）宣布，它将结束长达数年的抗枯萎栗子培育工作。这些树长得不好，不能抵抗疾病，经常死亡)”结合文章主要说明了美洲栗树进行基因工程达林58宣告失败，暴露了其中存在的一些问题和争议。可知，这篇文章的主要目的是解释围绕恢复美洲栗树的争议。故选C。 37．细节理解题。根据第三段“However, critics argued the testing period was too short to predict the tree’s long-term impact.(然而，批评人士认为，测试期太短，无法预测这棵树的长期影响)”可知，美国农业部对达林58号的请愿书面临批评因为测试期不够长，无法预测长期影响。故选A。 38．细节理解题。根据最后一段“The Darling 58 debacle highlights the risks of genetic engineering and commercial motives behind GE trees. Critics argue that GE is less about forest health and more about profits from faster-growing or industrially modified trees.(达令58的失败凸显了基因工程的风险和转基因树背后的商业动机。批评人士认为，通用电气不太关心森林的健康，而更关心从快速生长或工业化改造的树木中获利)”可知，C选项“批评者认为基因工程是利润驱动的，而不是生态驱动的”正确。故选C。 39．推理判断题。根据第三段“In 2020, researchers sought USDA approval to deregulate Darling 58.(2020年，研究人员寻求美国农业部批准解除对达令58的监管)”以及最后一段“The Darling 58 debacle highlights the risks of genetic engineering and commercial motives behind GE trees. Critics argue that GE is less about forest health and more about profits from faster-growing or industrially modified trees.(达令58的失败凸显了基因工程的风险和转基因树背后的商业动机。批评人士认为，通用电气不太关心森林的健康，而更关心从快速生长或工业化改造的树木中获利)”可知，将基因改造过的树木释放到野外可能会导致放松管制和转基因树的商业化。故选A。 B Workplace injuries still happen, In a statistical report produced by Safe Work Australia, there were a total of 104, 770 personal injury claims for a work-related incident last year alone.

Now they’re about brains, but in the future, they’ll be about the heart. – Minouche Shafik, the president of Columbia University LinkedIn researchers recently looked at which skills any given job requires and then identified over 500 likely to be affected by generative A．I. technologies. They then estimated that 96 percent of a software engineer’s current skills — mainly in programming languages — can eventually be possessed by A．I. Skills associated with jobs like legal associates and finance officers will also be highly exposed. In fact, given the broad impact A．I. is set to have, it is quite likely to affect all of our work to some degree or another. Circling around this research is the big question emerging across so many conversations about A．I. and work, namely: What are our core capabilities as humans? If we answer this question from a place of fear about what’s left for people in the age of A．I., we can end up admitting a diminished view of human capability. Instead, it’s critical for us all to start from a place that imagines what’s possible for humans in the age of A．I. When we do that, we find ourselves focusing quickly on people skills that allow us to cooperate and innovate in ways technology can intensify but never replace. A recent Jobs for the Future survey found that 78 percent of the 10 top-employing occupations classified uniquely human skills and tasks as “important” or “very important.” These, commonly referred to as soft skills, include building interpersonal relationships, negotiating between parties and guiding and motivating teams. Now is the time for leaders, across departments, to develop new ways for students to learn that are more directly tied to where our economy is going, not where it has been. Critically, that involves bringing the same level of preciseness to training around people skills that we have brought to technical skills. Ultimately, for our society, this comes down to whether we believe in the potential of humans with as much belief as we believe in the potential of A．I. If we do, it is entirely possible to build a world of work that not only is more human but also is a place where all people are valued for the unique skills we have, enabling us to deliver new levels of human achievement across so many areas that affect all of our lives. 43．According to LinkedIn’s recent research, __________. A．soft engineers are required to identify 500 languages B．A．I. will replace humans in jobs requiring certain skills C．we humans underestimate the impact A．I. is set to have D．A．I. technologies are to influence research to some degree 44．Which of the following is “a diminished view of human capability” (paragraph 3)? A．Humans are losing control of the world. B．Technology intensifies humans’ cooperation. C．Humans outsmart A．I in terms of critical thinking. D．A．I. and humans are similar in their ability to innovate. 45．Leaders in different departments are advised to __________. A．teach students unique technical skills B．develop students’ soft skills for their future C．remind students where our economy is going D．build healthy interpersonal relationships with students 46．According to the writer, what is the core factor of human development? A．Practical value set on skills. B．Firm belief about A．I. technologies. C．Decisive effects brought by A．I. D．Confidence in our potential. 【参考答案】43．B 44．A 45．B 46．D 【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。根据领英最近的研究，人工智能将在需要某些技能的工作中取代人类，围绕这项研究的一个大问题出现在许多关于人工智能和工作的对话中，即：我们作为人类的核心能力是什么？ 【详情解析】 43．细节理解题。根据第一段“They then estimated that 96 percent of a software engineer’s current skills — mainly in programming languages — can eventually be possessed by A.I. Skills associated with jobs like legal associates and finance officers will also be highly exposed.(然后他们估计，软件工程师目前96%的技能——主要是编程语言——最终都可以被人工智能所掌握。与法律助理和财务官等工作相关的技能也将高度曝光)”可知，根据领英最近的研究，人工智能将在需要某些技能的工作中取代人类。故选B。 44．细节理解题。根据第三段“Instead, it’s critical for us all to start from a place that imagines what’s possible for humans in the age of A.I. When we do that, we find ourselves focusing quickly on people skills that allow us to cooperate and innovate in ways technology can intensify but never replace.(相反，对我们所有人来说，从想象人工智能时代人类的可能性开始是至关重要的。当我们这样做时，我们会发现自己很快就把注意力集中在人际交往技能上，这些技能使我们能够以技术可以加强但永远不会取代的方式进行合作和创新)”可知，人类正在失去对世界的控制是“对人类能力的低估”。故选A。 45．细节理解题。根据倒数第三段“These, commonly referred to as soft skills, include building interpersonal relationships, negotiating between parties and guiding and motivating teams.(这些通常被称为软技能，包括建立人际关系，在各方之间进行谈判以及指导和激励团队)”可知，建议不同部门的领导为学生的未来培养软技能。故选B。 46．细节理解题。根据最后一段“Ultimately, for our society, this comes down to whether we believe in the potential of humans with as much belief as we believe in the potential of A.I. If we do, it is entirely possible to build a world of work that not only is more human but also is a place where all people are valued for the unique skills we have, enabling us to deliver new levels of human achievement across so many areas that affect all of our lives.(归根结底，对于我们的社会来说，这取决于我们是否像相信人工智能的潜力一样相信人类的潜力。如果我们相信，就完全有可能建立一个不仅更加人性化，而且所有人的独特技能都受到重视的工作世界，使我们能够在影响我们所有人生活的众多领域取得新的人类成就)”可知，对我们潜力的信心是人类发展的核心因素。故选D。 Section C Directions: Read the following passages. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. The complex relationship between music and memory is profound. Music acts as a strong trigger for emotions and memories, transporting individuals back to specific moments in the past. Long-term memory splits into explicit and implicit types. Explicit one involves conscious recall, like academic learning and personal experiences. Implicit memory works automatically, like playing instruments or remembering lyrics. 47 It often lasts a lifetime even without practice. Diseases like Alzheimer’s mainly affect explicit memory systems. 48 This leads to a liking for familiar pieces due to the mere exposure effect. Major record labels use it through frequent airplay to boost record sales. Implicit memory works like classical conditioning, where an event, emotion, and song become linked. Elton John’s “Candle in the Wind” is strongly connected with Princess Diana as he performed it at her funeral. Music-triggered memories often come from important life stages, especially between the ages of 10 and 30, known as the “reminiscence bump.” Music from this time is more likely to be linked with vivid memories compared to other periods. The teenage years and twenties are crucial for forming music preferences. 49 It helps them recall vivid memories from their youth. Despite severe memory loss, people with dementia often remember music well. Research shows self-chosen music can bring back positive memories that might otherwise be hard to recall. Music helps unlock non-musical memories and improves communication among older adults with Alzheimer’s disease, a sort of disease concerning one’s long-term memory. Listening to music from important life events, like weddings or funerals, can bring about deeply nostalgic and emotional experiences. 50 A．It is now widely used to cure lots of severe diseases. B．This emotional connection allows individuals to recall details of their past. C．Music’s ability to reach the minds of Alzheimer’s patients is remarkable. D．Explicit memory fades without active recall, but implicit memory is durable. E．Implicit memory can form through passive listening to background music. F．Remembering things is often hard, but music helps bring back memories linked to a song. 【参考答案】47．D 48．E 49．F 50．B 【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了音乐与记忆之间复杂而深刻的关系，特别是音乐如何触发情感和记忆，以及不同类型的记忆（明确记忆和隐含记忆）如何与音乐相关联。 【详情解析】 47．根据上文“Long-term memory splits into explicit and implicit types. Explicit one involves conscious recall, like academic learning and personal experiences. Implicit memory works automatically, like playing instruments or remembering lyrics.(长期记忆分为明确记忆和隐含记忆两种类型。明确记忆涉及有意识的回忆，如学术学习和个人经历。隐含记忆则是自动的，比如演奏乐器或记住歌词。)”可知，本段主要介绍了明确记忆和隐含记忆这两种记忆，所以接下来应该介绍这两种记忆的特点。选项D“明确记忆如果不主动回忆就会消退，但隐含记忆是持久的”符合语境。故选D。 48．根据下文“This leads to a liking for familiar pieces due to the mere exposure effect. Major record labels use it through frequent airplay to boost record sales.(这导致了对熟悉曲目的喜爱，仅仅因为暴露效应。主要唱片公司通过频繁的电台播放来利用这一点，以提高唱片销量。)”可知，本段主要讲述了一种会导致人们喜欢熟悉曲目的记忆，再结合下文提到的“唱片公司通过频繁的电台播放来利用这一点”，可推测出这种记忆应该是通过被动听背景音乐形成的，选项E“通过被动听背景音乐可以形成隐含记忆”符合语境。下文中的“it”指代的就是选项E中的“implicit memory”。故选E。 49．根据上文“Music from this time is more likely to be linked with vivid memories compared to other periods. The teenage years and twenties are crucial for forming music preferences.(与其他时期相比，这一时期的音乐更有可能与生动的记忆联系在一起。十几岁和二十几岁的时候是形成音乐偏好的关键时期。)”和下文“It helps them recall vivid memories from their youth.(它帮助他们回忆起年轻时的生动记忆。)”可知，本段主要讲述了某一事物有助于人们回忆年轻时的记忆，再结合上文提到的“这一时期的音乐更有可能与生动的记忆联系在一起”，可推测出这个事物指的就是“音乐”，选项F“记忆事情往往很难，但音乐有助于带回与歌曲相关的记忆”符合语境，选项中的“bring back memories linked to a song”与下文的“recall vivid memories from their youth”相呼应。故选F。 50．根据上文“Listening to music from important life events, like weddings or funerals, can bring about deeply nostalgic and emotional experiences.(听来自重要生活事件的音乐，比如婚礼或葬礼，可以带来深深的怀旧和情感体验。)”可知，本段主要讲述了音乐可以带来深深的情感体验，所以接下来应该讲述这种情感体验的作用，选项B“这种情感联系使人们能够回忆起他们过去的细节”符合语境。故选B。 III. Summary Writing(共10分） Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible. What We Should Know about Honey The process that produces honey may have helped form humans too. Scientists believe that wild hives full of honey provided the calories that early humans such as Homo erectus (直立人), walking in Africa , needed to develop their brains into those of modern humans. That puts honey in a class with fire, tool use, and hunting as a key ingredient in the evolution of human beings. With time, those evolved brains learned to domesticate bees to produce honey in a farmed setting. Today’s beekeepers support large-scale industrial farms, which would be unable to grow their crops without hiring traveling groups of bees to come pollinate (授粉) their vast, single-species fields. The bees will endlessly fill the towers of combs put onto their hives by the beekeeper, who then collects the extra honey for human consumption while still leaving the bees all they need to eat. Today, the average American consumes nearly a pound and a half of honey every year, in tea, on toast, and beyond. Honey is a timeless treasure. Literally—it never goes bad. Samples nearly 3,000 years old found in the Egyptian pyramids are as eatable as the day they were entombed. Its anti-microbial nature also makes honey an excellent cure for wounds, keeping infection out while holding in the moisture that skin needs to heal. However, bees’ good health is not guaranteed. U.S. beekeepers lose about 40 percent of their hives annually to colony collapse disorder. The problem lies in the growth of industrial agriculture and pesticide use, as well as changes in weather patterns, all of which reduce the number of flowers bees have to visit. If bees continue to die, apples and peaches (along with any crop that relies on their pollination) will become scarcer and pricier. As will honey. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【参考答案】 Honey played an important role in human evolution, providing energy that humans needed to develop their brains. Then evolved humans set up bee farms to cultivate bees, thus collecting honey. Honey is a treasure with long shelf life and excellent curing effects. But bee population is decreasing due to industrialization and weather changes, making honey become rarer and more expensive. 【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了蜂蜜在人类进化史中的作用、蜜蜂养殖的发展、蜂蜜的独特性质及其对健康的益处，以及由于工业化和气候变化导致的蜜蜂数量下降对蜂蜜供应的影响。 【详情解析】要点摘录 ① Honey may have helped form humans by providing the necessary calories for brain development. ② Humans learned to domesticate bees for honey production in farmed settings. ③ Honey is a timeless treasure with long shelf life and healing properties. ④ Bees' health is threatened by industrial agriculture, pesticide use, and weather changes, leading to reduced honey supply. 缜密构思 将第①、②两个要点进行合并，强调蜂蜜在人类历史中的重要性和人类对蜜蜂的驯化；将第③、④两个要点分别阐述蜂蜜的特性和面临的挑战。 遣词造句 Honey played a crucial role in human evolution, serving as a source of energy for brain development. As humans evolved, they domesticated bees to establish honey farms. Honey possesses a unique quality of longevity and serves as an effective remedy for wounds. However, the bee population faces threats from modern agriculture and climate change, resulting in a dwindling honey supply and increased prices. 【点睛】[高分句型1] Honey played a crucial role in human evolution, serving as a source of energy for brain development. 使用了现在分词短语作状语。 [高分句型2] But bee population is decreasing due to industrialization and weather changes, making honey become rarer and more expensive.使用了介词短语作状语、现在分词短语作状语。 IV.Translation (共15分。第1小题和第2小题,每题3分;第3题4分;第4题5分。) Directions: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets. 52．尽管市场上饮料品种丰富，但我还是深深着迷于中国传统的茶文化。(although) （汉译英） 【答案】Although there are various beverages in/on the market, I am still deeply fascinated by traditional Chinese tea culture. 【详解】考查时态、让步状语从句、固定短语、副词、形容词和名词。表示“尽管”用although，引导让步状语从句，位于句首，首字母大写；从句中：表示“有”用there be句型，本句陈述事实，故时态用一般现在时，且结合“饮料品种丰富”可知，be动词用are；表示“各种各样的”用形容词various，作定语，修饰“饮料”beverage，饮料不止一种，应用名词复数形式，作主语；表示“市场上”用固定短语in/on the market。主句中：表示“我”用I，作主语；表示“着迷于”用be fascinated by，be动词用am；表示“还是，仍然”用副词still；表示“深深地”用副词deeply，作状语；表示“传统的”用形容词traditional，作定语，修饰“中国茶文化”Chinese tea culture。故翻译为Although there are various beverages in/on the market, I am still deeply fascinated by traditional Chinese tea culture. 53．我们历时三年时间，开发了一款体育器材，既强身健体，又促进心理健康。(commit) （汉译英） 【答案】We have committed three years to developing / manufacturing a sports device / a kind of sports equipment that strengthens body / enhances physical health and boosts mental well-being. 【详解】考查定语从句。表示“我们”应用代词we作主句的主语；表示“历时”应用动词commit，根据句意应用现在完成时have committed，作主句的谓语；表示“三年时间”应用three years，作主句的宾语；表示“开发了一款体育器材”应用不定式短语 to developing / manufacturing a sports device / a kind of sports equipment，作状语；表示“既强身健体，又促进心理健康”应用定语从句that strengthens body / enhances physical health and boosts mental well-being修饰先行词equipment，其中关系代词that在从句中作主语指代先行词equipment，表示“强身健体，又促进心理健康”应用动词短语strengthens body / enhances physical health and boosts mental well-being，作并列的谓语和宾语。故翻译为：We have committed three years to developing / manufacturing a sports device / a kind of sports equipment that strengthens body / enhances physical health and boosts mental well-being. 54．网络红包的乐趣在于它的未知性，因为收到红包的人只有打开它时才知道自己到底抢到了多少钱。(until) (汉译英) 【答案】The joy of online red packet lies in its unpredictability, for the one receiving it will never know how much he has grabbed until he opens it. 【详解】考查固定搭配、非谓语动词、并列句、宾语从句和状语从句。根据汉语中的“因为……”可知，这里可用for引出表示原因的句子，for表示“因为”；根据汉语中的“只有……才……”可知，这里应用not/never until(直到……才)表示。“网络红包”可表示为online red packet；“……的乐趣”可表示为the joy of；“在于”可表示为lie in，为固定搭配；“未知性”可表示为unpredictability；“收到”可表示为receive，“红包”在前面已经提及，这里可用it代指，根据句中的“收到红包的人”可知，这里特指收到红包的那个人，应用the one表示，且“收到红包”作定语修饰the one，receive和the one之间是主谓关系，应用现在分词作后置定语，即the one receiving it；“打开”可表示为open；“知道”可表示为know；“抢到了多少钱”作“知道”的宾语，可用how much引导的宾语从句how much he has grabbed表示。故本句可翻译为：The joy of online red packet lies in its unpredictability, for the one receiving it will never know how much he has grabbed until he opens it. 55．配备了高水平的智能系统，这款最新一代的机器人可以即时理解人类意图，并对人类互动做出反应。(equip) (汉译英) 【答案】Equipped with a high level of intelligent systems, this latest generation of robot can instantly understand human intentions and react to human interactions. 【详解】考查名词短语、动词（短语）、形容词、副词和非谓语动词。“配备了高水平的智能系统”可理解为是对主语“这款最新一代的机器人”的补充说明，作状语，用意为“配备”的过去分词短语equipped with和意为“高水平的智能系统”的名词短语a high level of intelligent systems搭配；主语“这款最新一代的机器人”可用名词短语this latest generation of robot，“可以”应用情态动词can，“即时”可用副词instantly作状语，“理解人类意图”可用动词understand和名词短语human intentions搭配，“并”应用并列连词and，“对人类互动做出反应”可用动词短语react to和名词短语human interactions搭配。故可译为：Equipped with a high level of intelligent systems, this latest generation of robot can instantly understand human intentions and react to human interactions.

For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank. No Filming at Concerts and Movie Theaters on Phones “Please, no flash photography.” Polite requests like this can be found in museums all over the world, but they generally don’t discourage people from taking photos of 1 they feel like. The same goes for concerts, movie theaters and other places 2 people routinely ignore filming restrictions. A new patent from Apple may block that rule-breaking feature—on phones at least. The patent, 3 (award) to Apple today, outlines a system which would allow venues, like concert halls or theaters, to use an infrared emitter (红外发射器) to remotely disable the camera function on smartphones. According to the patent, infrared beams could be picked up by the camera, and interpreted by the smartphone as a command 4 (block) the user from taking any photos or videos. Many musicians and performers have banned cellphones from their shows 5 they object to the free footage circulating around the web. 6 this, images still manage to leak out. Prince’s last concert before he passed away in April was supposed to be cellphone-free—it apparently wasn’t. If Apple’s patent 7 (introduce) into iPhone software, with venues putting infrared emitters around their stage, leaks like this could potentially stop happening. But the patent also raises questions about the sort of power that this technology would be handing over to 8 with more immoral intentions. Given the company’s rigid support of personal privacy when it comes to police requests to break into users’ devices, it’s possible that Apple just 9 (patent) the technology so that no one else will use it. But who knows, if it does intend to introduce this feature to future operating systems, sales of camcorders, or even GoPros, could get a much-needed boost, as people try to avoid 10 (use) the prohibitive software. Section B Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need. A．applauding   B．entry-level   C． struck    D．fascination    E. back-seal      F. stuck G. stand       H. promoter      I. hook       J. dominant        K. empowered The nature is part of us. Therefore, it holds a mysterious 11 for me. In my memory, the valley was quiet and calm, only to see the wheat all over the mountains waving together in rhythm when the wind blew through, like a ballet troupe. The sun rose every morning as usual, sweeping across the valley and ultimately falling behind the peaks. The snow that falls in winter always melts in spring, bringing new hope to this nature where everything was pleasant and beautiful. Led by fate, I have became an environmentalist and had the honor of being invited to address students about my green lifestyle for a long time. The students were surprised at my lifestyle and maybe they thought my lifestyle was no longer suitable for modern life. Fortunately, they were still listened to whole lecture, saluting or 12 me——to some extent the applause implied their encouragement to me. As I began to interact with them under the stage, I was 13 by kids’ lack of knowledge of nature so that they had little knowledge of protecting environment. After the address, I put up a stand in the 14 offering green food, hoping them interested in it to get the 15 experiencing a first-hand feeling of the green lifestyle no one shows any interest in. So I decided to team up with the concert 16 to run a campaign: “anyone who can answer a(n) 17 environmental question is qualified to attend the concert. Soon the music can 18 them coming here”. Since then , I have been considering why kids today do not have the same deep appreciation for nature that I do. One of the significant factors may be that the former rural civilization has been replaced by the urban civilization. In the past, the poor played the 19 role in the nature, so they cleared the wasteland, planted crops and reproduced civilization. With the massive invasion of industrialization and urbanization, people were forced to move away from nature. The struggle between tradition and modernity, the confrontation between humans and nature has led people to believe that they are the masters of the universe. Is this really the case? It is time to think about who 20 us to destroy nature.

Experts say regularly speaking multiple languages may be especially 24 though. “We use language in all aspects of daily life, so a bilingual brain is 25 working,” said Mark Antoniou, a professor at Western Sydney University who specializes in bilingualism. The age at which you learn another language appears to be less important than how 26 you speak it. The cognitive (认知的) benefit is from having to 27 your mother tongue, which your brain is forced to do if you’re trying to recall the right words in another language.

However, evidence for the benefits of learning a second language as a hobby in your 60s is 31 . Research by Dr. Antoniou and colleagues found that while Chinese adults 60 and up improved on cognition tests after a six-month language learning program, people who played games like Sudoku did as well.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. A Attempts to genetically engineer the American chestnut tree (Darling 58) have failed, exposing the risks of rushed solutions to complex problems. In December 2023, the American Chestnut Foundation (TACF) announced it was ending its years-long effort to create a blight-resistant chestnut. These trees grew poorly, failed to resist disease, and often died. The American chestnut, once abundant in Eastern U.S. forests, was destroyed by blight in the early 1900s. Some surviving trees sprouted from stumps or resisted the disease naturally. Efforts to restore the species have divided scientists into two camps: one advocating for natural restoration and the other for genetic engineering (GE). The GE approach started in 1989, led by researchers at SUNY-ESF with backing from industry players like Duke Energy, and Monsanto. In 2020, researchers sought USDA approval to deregulate Darling 58. The tree was engineered with a wheat gene to combat the acid produced by chestnut blight. However, critics argued the testing period was too short to predict the tree’s long-term impact. The proposed plan to spread GE traits through wild forests sparked fears of ecological harm. By 2023, it was revealed that years of research had mistakenly used the wrong tree variety (Darling 54). TACF withdrew support, citing poor results, reduced survival rates, and commercial conflicts involving a for-profit company. Despite setbacks, SUNY-ESF continues to push for USDA approval, claiming the trees are safe. Meanwhile, organizations like the American Chestnut Cooperators Foundation focus on natural methods, breeding pure chestnuts with blight resistance. Hybridization with Chinese chestnuts is another method under development. The Darling 58 debacle highlights the risks of genetic engineering and commercial motives behind GE trees. Critics argue that GE is less about forest health and more about profits from faster-growing or industrially modified trees. As the debate continues, the lesson remains clear: science must proceed cautiously, especially when dealing with long-living species like trees. 36．The primary purpose of this passage is to ________. A．criticize the use of genetic engineering on chestnut trees in forest restoration. B．describe the main history of the American chestnut tree’s decline since the 1900s. C．explain the controversy surrounding the restoration of the American chestnut tree. D．promote natural breeding as the best solution for chestnut tree restoration. 37．Why did the USDA petition for Darling 58 face criticism? A．The testing period was not long enough to predict long-term effects. B．The genetically engineered trees were not resistant to blight. C．The USDA was accused of favoring genetic engineering companies. D．The petition did not include input from environmental scientists. 38．According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE? A．Darling 58 chestnut trees were approved for widespread planting in 2023. B．Natural methods of restoring the American chestnut show no promise. C．Critics believe the genetic engineering is profit-driven rather than ecological. D．TACF fully supports SUNY-ESF’s efforts with Darling 58 chestnut trees. 39．What can be inferred about releasing genetically engineered trees into the wild? A．It may lead to deregulation and commercialization of GE trees. B．It will rapidly restore ecosystems with minimal risks. C．It proves corporate interests align with environmental goals. D．It shows GE is more reliable than natural restoration. B Workplace injuries still happen, In a statistical report produced by Safe Work Australia, there were a total of 104, 770 personal injury claims for a work-related incident last year alone. The most typical type is related to repetitive body movements, followed by unexpected falls and contact with moving equipment. Prioritizing health and safety is essential in creating a positive and productive working environment. 40．According to the info chart, workplace injuries may lead to ________. A．long leave of absence at work B．tax avoidance for companies C．nationwide salary reduction D．increased mental alertness 41．Which group of percentages best fits the blanks numbered 1, 2 and 3? A．①17%;②24%;③38% B．①26%;②43%; ③ 18% C．①78%;②23%;③30% D．①39%; ②25%;③17% 42．To ensure safety in the workplace, it is suggested that one should ________. A．make themselves clean before working B．wear safety equipment when necessary C．stretch arms and legs before lifting objects D．receive proper training on taking breaks C In the past, jobs were about muscles. Now they’re about brains, but in the future, they’ll be about the heart. – Minouche Shafik, the president of Columbia University LinkedIn researchers recently looked at which skills any given job requires and then identified over 500 likely to be affected by generative A．I. technologies. They then estimated that 96 percent of a software engineer’s current skills — mainly in programming languages — can eventually be possessed by A．I. Skills associated with jobs like legal associates and finance officers will also be highly exposed. In fact, given the broad impact A．I. is set to have, it is quite likely to affect all of our work to some degree or another. Circling around this research is the big question emerging across so many conversations about A．I. and work, namely: What are our core capabilities as humans? If we answer this question from a place of fear about what’s left for people in the age of A．I., we can end up admitting a diminished view of human capability. Instead, it’s critical for us all to start from a place that imagines what’s possible for humans in the age of A．I. When we do that, we find ourselves focusing quickly on people skills that allow us to cooperate and innovate in ways technology can intensify but never replace. A recent Jobs for the Future survey found that 78 percent of the 10 top-employing occupations classified uniquely human skills and tasks as “important” or “very important.” These, commonly referred to as soft skills, include building interpersonal relationships, negotiating between parties and guiding and motivating teams. Now is the time for leaders, across departments, to develop new ways for students to learn that are more directly tied to where our economy is going, not where it has been. Critically, that involves bringing the same level of preciseness to training around people skills that we have brought to technical skills. Ultimately, for our society, this comes down to whether we believe in the potential of humans with as much belief as we believe in the potential of A．I. If we do, it is entirely possible to build a world of work that not only is more human but also is a place where all people are valued for the unique skills we have, enabling us to deliver new levels of human achievement across so many areas that affect all of our lives. 43．According to LinkedIn’s recent research, __________. A．soft engineers are required to identify 500 languages B．A．I. will replace humans in jobs requiring certain skills C．we humans underestimate the impact A．I. is set to have D．A．I. technologies are to influence research to some degree 44．Which of the following is “a diminished view of human capability” (paragraph 3)? A．Humans are losing control of the world. B．Technology intensifies humans’ cooperation. C．Humans outsmart A．I in terms of critical thinking. D．A．I. and humans are similar in their ability to innovate. 45．Leaders in different departments are advised to __________. A．teach students unique technical skills B．develop students’ soft skills for their future C．remind students where our economy is going D．build healthy interpersonal relationships with students 46．According to the writer, what is the core factor of human development? A．Practical value set on skills. B．Firm belief about A．I. technologies. C．Decisive effects brought by A．I. D．Confidence in our potential. Section C Directions: Read the following passages. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. The complex relationship between music and memory is profound. Music acts as a strong trigger for emotions and memories, transporting individuals back to specific moments in the past. Long-term memory splits into explicit and implicit types. Explicit one involves conscious recall, like academic learning and personal experiences. Implicit memory works automatically, like playing instruments or remembering lyrics. 47 It often lasts a lifetime even without practice. Diseases like Alzheimer’s mainly affect explicit memory systems. 48 This leads to a liking for familiar pieces due to the mere exposure effect. Major record labels use it through frequent airplay to boost record sales. Implicit memory works like classical conditioning, where an event, emotion, and song become linked. Elton John’s “Candle in the Wind” is strongly connected with Princess Diana as he performed it at her funeral. Music-triggered memories often come from important life stages, especially between the ages of 10 and 30, known as the “reminiscence bump.” Music from this time is more likely to be linked with vivid memories compared to other periods. The teenage years and twenties are crucial for forming music preferences. 49 It helps them recall vivid memories from their youth. Despite severe memory loss, people with dementia often remember music well. Research shows self-chosen music can bring back positive memories that might otherwise be hard to recall. Music helps unlock non-musical memories and improves communication among older adults with Alzheimer’s disease, a sort of disease concerning one’s long-term memory. Listening to music from important life events, like weddings or funerals, can bring about deeply nostalgic and emotional experiences. 50 A．It is now widely used to cure lots of severe diseases. B．This emotional connection allows individuals to recall details of their past. C．Music’s ability to reach the minds of Alzheimer’s patients is remarkable. D．Explicit memory fades without active recall, but implicit memory is durable. E．Implicit memory can form through passive listening to background music. F．Remembering things is often hard, but music helps bring back memories linked to a song. III. Summary Writing(共10分） Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible. What We Should Know about Honey The process that produces honey may have helped form humans too. Scientists believe that wild hives full of honey provided the calories that early humans such as Homo erectus (直立人), walking in Africa , needed to develop their brains into those of modern humans. That puts honey in a class with fire, tool use, and hunting as a key ingredient in the evolution of human beings. With time, those evolved brains learned to domesticate bees to produce honey in a farmed setting. Today’s beekeepers support large-scale industrial farms, which would be unable to grow their crops without hiring traveling groups of bees to come pollinate (授粉) their vast, single-species fields. The bees will endlessly fill the towers of combs put onto their hives by the beekeeper, who then collects the extra honey for human consumption while still leaving the bees all they need to eat. Today, the average American consumes nearly a pound and a half of honey every year, in tea, on toast, and beyond. Honey is a timeless treasure. Literally—it never goes bad. Samples nearly 3,000 years old found in the Egyptian pyramids are as eatable as the day they were entombed. Its anti-microbial nature also makes honey an excellent cure for wounds, keeping infection out while holding in the moisture that skin needs to heal. However, bees’ good health is not guaranteed. U.S. beekeepers lose about 40 percent of their hives annually to colony collapse disorder. The problem lies in the growth of industrial agriculture and pesticide use, as well as changes in weather patterns, all of which reduce the number of flowers bees have to visit. If bees continue to die, apples and peaches (along with any crop that relies on their pollination) will become scarcer and pricier. As will honey. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ IV.Translation (共15分。第1小题和第2小题,每题3分;第3题4分;第4题5分。) Directions: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets. 52．尽管市场上饮料品种丰富，但我还是深深着迷于中国传统的茶文化。(although) （汉译英） 53．我们历时三年时间，开发了一款体育器材，既强身健体，又促进心理健康。(commit) （汉译英） 54．网络红包的乐趣在于它的未知性，因为收到红包的人只有打开它时才知道自己到底抢到了多少钱。(until) (汉译英) 55．配备了高水平的智能系统，这款最新一代的机器人可以即时理解人类意图，并对人类互动做出反应。(equip) (汉译英) V.Guided Writing(共25分) Directions: Write an English composition in 120-150 words according to the instructions given below in Chinese. 假如你是明启中学的吴磊，高考结束之后，你的学校组织校友活动，请即将毕业的高三学生进班给高一高二的学弟学妹们传授经验，请结合自身经历写一篇发言稿。你的发言稿须： 1. 描述你在高中三年最大的收获； 2. 就如何过好高中生活，给出你的建议。 Dear fellow students, _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试题 第3页（共12页） 试题 第4页（共12页） 试题 第1页（共12页） 试题 第2页（共12页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2025年高考第三次模拟考试（上海卷）02 英语 （考试时间：100分钟 试卷满分：115分） 注意事项： 1. 答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 3. 考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 I.Grammar and Vocabulary（每题1分；共20分） Section A Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct.

No Filming at Concerts and Movie Theaters on Phones “Please, no flash photography.” Polite requests like this can be found in museums all over the world, but they generally don’t discourage people from taking photos of 1 they feel like. The same goes for concerts, movie theaters and other places 2 people routinely ignore filming restrictions. A new patent from Apple may block that rule-breaking feature—on phones at least. The patent, 3 (award) to Apple today, outlines a system which would allow venues, like concert halls or theaters, to use an infrared emitter (红外发射器) to remotely disable the camera function on smartphones. According to the patent, infrared beams could be picked up by the camera, and interpreted by the smartphone as a command 4 (block) the user from taking any photos or videos. Many musicians and performers have banned cellphones from their shows 5 they object to the free footage circulating around the web. 6 this, images still manage to leak out. Prince’s last concert before he passed away in April was supposed to be cellphone-free—it apparently wasn’t. If Apple’s patent 7 (introduce) into iPhone software, with venues putting infrared emitters around their stage, leaks like this could potentially stop happening. But the patent also raises questions about the sort of power that this technology would be handing over to 8 with more immoral intentions. Given the company’s rigid support of personal privacy when it comes to police requests to break into users’ devices, it’s possible that Apple just 9 (patent) the technology so that no one else will use it. But who knows, if it does intend to introduce this feature to future operating systems, sales of camcorders, or even GoPros, could get a much-needed boost, as people try to avoid 10 (use) the prohibitive software.

Therefore, it holds a mysterious 11 for me. In my memory, the valley was quiet and calm, only to see the wheat all over the mountains waving together in rhythm when the wind blew through, like a ballet troupe. The sun rose every morning as usual, sweeping across the valley and ultimately falling behind the peaks. The snow that falls in winter always melts in spring, bringing new hope to this nature where everything was pleasant and beautiful. Led by fate, I have became an environmentalist and had the honor of being invited to address students about my green lifestyle for a long time. The students were surprised at my lifestyle and maybe they thought my lifestyle was no longer suitable for modern life. Fortunately, they were still listened to whole lecture, saluting or 12 me——to some extent the applause implied their encouragement to me. As I began to interact with them under the stage, I was 13 by kids’ lack of knowledge of nature so that they had little knowledge of protecting environment. After the address, I put up a stand in the 14 offering green food, hoping them interested in it to get the 15 experiencing a first-hand feeling of the green lifestyle no one shows any interest in. So I decided to team up with the concert 16 to run a campaign: “anyone who can answer a(n) 17 environmental question is qualified to attend the concert. Soon the music can 18 them coming here”. Since then , I have been considering why kids today do not have the same deep appreciation for nature that I do. One of the significant factors may be that the former rural civilization has been replaced by the urban civilization. In the past, the poor played the 19 role in the nature, so they cleared the wasteland, planted crops and reproduced civilization. With the massive invasion of industrialization and urbanization, people were forced to move away from nature. The struggle between tradition and modernity, the confrontation between humans and nature has led people to believe that they are the masters of the universe. Is this really the case? It is time to think about who 20 us to destroy nature.

Major record labels use it through frequent airplay to boost record sales. Implicit memory works like classical conditioning, where an event, emotion, and song become linked. Elton John’s “Candle in the Wind” is strongly connected with Princess Diana as he performed it at her funeral. Music-triggered memories often come from important life stages, especially between the ages of 10 and 30, known as the “reminiscence bump.” Music from this time is more likely to be linked with vivid memories compared to other periods. The teenage years and twenties are crucial for forming music preferences. 49 It helps them recall vivid memories from their youth. Despite severe memory loss, people with dementia often remember music well. Research shows self-chosen music can bring back positive memories that might otherwise be hard to recall. Music helps unlock non-musical memories and improves communication among older adults with Alzheimer’s disease, a sort of disease concerning one’s long-term memory. Listening to music from important life events, like weddings or funerals, can bring about deeply nostalgic and emotional experiences. 50 A．It is now widely used to cure lots of severe diseases. B．This emotional connection allows individuals to recall details of their past. C．Music’s ability to reach the minds of Alzheimer’s patients is remarkable. D．Explicit memory fades without active recall, but implicit memory is durable. E．Implicit memory can form through passive listening to background music. F．Remembering things is often hard, but music helps bring back memories linked to a song. III. Summary Writing(共10分） Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible. What We Should Know about Honey The process that produces honey may have helped form humans too. Scientists believe that wild hives full of honey provided the calories that early humans such as Homo erectus (直立人), walking in Africa , needed to develop their brains into those of modern humans. That puts honey in a class with fire, tool use, and hunting as a key ingredient in the evolution of human beings. With time, those evolved brains learned to domesticate bees to produce honey in a farmed setting. Today’s beekeepers support large-scale industrial farms, which would be unable to grow their crops without hiring traveling groups of bees to come pollinate (授粉) their vast, single-species fields. The bees will endlessly fill the towers of combs put onto their hives by the beekeeper, who then collects the extra honey for human consumption while still leaving the bees all they need to eat. Today, the average American consumes nearly a pound and a half of honey every year, in tea, on toast, and beyond. Honey is a timeless treasure. Literally—it never goes bad. Samples nearly 3,000 years old found in the Egyptian pyramids are as eatable as the day they were entombed. Its anti-microbial nature also makes honey an excellent cure for wounds, keeping infection out while holding in the moisture that skin needs to heal. However, bees’ good health is not guaranteed. U.S. beekeepers lose about 40 percent of their hives annually to colony collapse disorder. The problem lies in the growth of industrial agriculture and pesticide use, as well as changes in weather patterns, all of which reduce the number of flowers bees have to visit. If bees continue to die, apples and peaches (along with any crop that relies on their pollination) will become scarcer and pricier. As will honey. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ IV.Translation (共15分。第1小题和第2小题,每题3分;第3题4分;第4题5分。) Directions: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets. 52．尽管市场上饮料品种丰富，但我还是深深着迷于中国传统的茶文化。(although) （汉译英） 53．我们历时三年时间，开发了一款体育器材，既强身健体，又促进心理健康。(commit) （汉译英） 54．网络红包的乐趣在于它的未知性，因为收到红包的人只有打开它时才知道自己到底抢到了多少钱。(until) (汉译英) 55．配备了高水平的智能系统，这款最新一代的机器人可以即时理解人类意图，并对人类互动做出反应。(equip) (汉译英) V.Guided Writing(共25分) Directions: Write an English composition in 120-150 words according to the instructions given below in Chinese. 假如你是明启中学的吴磊，高考结束之后，你的学校组织校友活动，请即将毕业的高三学生进班给高一高二的学弟学妹们传授经验，请结合自身经历写一篇发言稿。你的发言稿须： 1. 描述你在高中三年最大的收获； 2. 就如何过好高中生活，给出你的建议。 Dear fellow students, _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试卷第1页，共3页 1 / 12 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$■■■ 2025年高考第三次模拟考试（上海卷）02 英语·答题卡 姓 名： 缺考 贴条形码区 准考证号 标记 a 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 注意事项 郑 2 1.答题前，考生先将自己的姓名、准考证号码填写清楚，并 23456789 23456789 23456789 3 4 23456789 234 234 123 认真检查监考员所粘贴的条形码： 2345678 3 4 4 2.选择题必须使用2B铅笔填涂；非选择题必须用0.5m 5 5 黑色字迹的签字笔填写，字体工整。 5 6 3.请按题号顺序在各题的答题区内作答，超出答题区域范围 6 6 6 的答案无效，在草纸、试卷上作答无效。 789 78 5678 7 4.保持卡面清洁，不要折叠、不要弄破、弄皱，不准使用涂 8 78 改液、刮纸刀。 9 9 9 9 5.正确填涂 选择题 (请用2B铅笔填涂) 21 IAJIBIICHD] 26 IAJIBIICHD] 31 [AJIBJICID] 36【A1IB]ICID1 2 IAlBIICIDI 27【A1IB1ICID] 32 [A]IBJICID] 37 [AJ[BJICIID] 想 23 IAJIBIICIDI 28 IAJIB]ICID] 33 IAI[B][CIID] 38 [AJIBIICID] 24 IAIIBIICHD] 29「AJIBIICHD1 39 IA]IB]ICHID] 30 IA]IB]ICIID] 35 IAJBIICIDI 40 [AJIB]ICID] 41【A1 IB]ICIID] 1AJIB]ICI[DJ[EI[F] 42【AIBIICIID1 [AJIBJ[CI[DJIEJ[FI [AJIB]ICI[D] 8【A1 BJIC1 [DIIE1IF1 三 44 [AJIBJICI[D] IAIIB][CI[DIIEJIF] 45 IAJIB]IC]ID] So IAJIBJICHIDIIEJ[FI 非选择题（请在各试题的答题区内作答） Ⅱ、Grammar and Vocabulary Section A 3 6 10 请在各题目的答题区域内作答，超出黑色矩形边框限定区域的答案无效！ 英语第1页（共2页） 请在各题目的答题区域内作答，超出黑色矩形边框限定区域的答案无效！ Section B 11 12 13. 14 15. 16 17. 18. 19. 20.
