Black Myth: Wukong is one of the most highly anticipated Chinese video games ever, a premium title with a blockbuster- worthy budget that emphasizes the country’s push to become a global cultural power. The game’s release is a landmark moment for China’s gaming industry. It is considered China’s first “AAA” title, a big- budget, global game with sophisticated gameplay and advanced visuals.
Within hours of its release, there were more than 1.5million people playing it on Steam, making it the No.1 game on the online platform. Black Myth: Wuhong is adapted from the16th- century Chinese classic novel Journey to the West. The game’s main character is inspired by Sun Wukong, also known as the Monkey King, who battles opponents with a magic iron bar.
China’s video game industry is dominated by titles played on smartphones, not big- budget console (主机游戏) or PC games that are released globally. However, Black Myth: Wukong marks a shift as it is being initially released on Sony’s PlayStation 5 and personal computers. In recent years, the industry in China has faced significant challenges. The government has implemented strict regulations to control gaming due to concerns that children could become addicted and negatively influenced. For example, Beijing has introduced rules that prohibit young people from playing games online on school days and impose strict time limits on gaming during weekends and holidays.
But the game’s launch lit up national pride. One Chinese media outlet noted that the game’s default language is Chinese and added, “It feels so good.” The global interest in the game also highlighted China’s push to exercise its “soft power.” The novel that it is based on is considered one of China’s four great classics. The game also depicts important cultural landmarks throughout China.
“The success of Black Myth: Wukong is not only a victory for the gaming industry, but also an important milestone in the overseas expansion of Chinese culture,” Yangcheng Evening News, a state- owned newspaper, wrote in an article.
24. What do we know about Black Myth: Wukong?
A. It focuses on basic gameplay elements.
B. It shifts China’s gaming towards consoles.
C. It features a world born of pure imagination.
D. It acts as a landmark for adapting Chinese myth.
25. What challenge has China’s gaming industry faced recently?
A. Insufficient budget for game development.
B Increasing popularity of smartphone games.
C. China’s lack of emphasis on cultural soft power.
D. Government measures to restrict youth gaming time.
26. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A The game targets Western audience with its cultural themes.
B. The game is a big step in showing Chinese culture worldwide.
C. The game’s success is a way to boost China’s economic growth.
D. The game strengthens national pride by highlighting Chinese culture.
27. What can be the best title of the text?
A. Black Myth: Wukong as a Cultural Ambassador
B. The Impact of Gaming Industry on China’s Youth
C. The Impact of Gaming Industry on Chinese Culture
D. Black Myth: Wukong’s Influence on Game Mechanics
C
Nearly every weekend this summer, a rising senior and small business owner, Vic Cohen together with his schoolmates could be found with their stand decorated with a variety of handmade chainmail jewelry (链甲珠宝).
Cohen only began making chainmail jewelry in April with no previous experience in jewelry making. Stuck on campus until long past the end of the semester, Cohen found themselves looking for something to keep them occupied, which led to them searching for courses online and on Pinterest after getting initial inspiration from Etsy. “This was the first time I learned how to like an actual craft and like multiple dimensions of it,” Cohen said. “This also lighted my passion for business. This idea originally started out only for my friends. And because I wanted them to get cool jewelry without having to break the bank.”
Cohen began selling their jewelry to friends and on Instagram, and eventually at art markets: around town. These markets have also been Cohen’s entry into Rochester’s dynamic art community attracting University of Rochester students, students on other campuses, and young professionals in the city. This has allowed them to learn from each other and improve on their art by learning different skills and employing different tips and tricks in their pieces. Cohen has connected with Rochester Institute of Technology and Middlesex Community College students, learning that the former institution has a jewelry- making major and meeting students within the major. “They’ve praised my work, which is absolutely crazy,” Cohen said. “This has unintentionally been a great way to make friends.” These connections led to them getting the chance to host a beginner chainmail class themselves. “I know I’m capable of teaching other people and it’s really fun to share my love for this because as a STEM major, I get so wrapped up in it, and being able to find a way out is nice.”
After graduation, Cohen plans to apply to different graduate schools and continue their small business on the side. “I want this to remain something I love,” Cohen said.
28. What inspired Cohen to start the business?
A. His previous experience. B. The thought of getting busy.
C. His passion for jewelry making. D. The inspiration from online courses.
29. What can we know about Cohen’s chainmail jewelry?
A. It is reasonably priced. B. It was initially sold online.
C. It is professionally designed. D. It was first intended for credits.
30. What can people do in Rochester’s art community?
A. Attend courses of jewelry making. B. Raise their skills in making jewelry.
C. Gain admission to the jewelry major. D. Achieve a goal of gaining treasure.
31. Why did Cohen teach other people to make jewelry?
A. To show the love for art. B. To share a way of relief.
C. To realize his dream of helping others. D. To display his talent in making jewelry.
D
Superhuman artificial intelligence has played a role in our life. When it comes to playing games like chess, or solving difficult scientific challenges like predicting protein structures, computers are well ahead of humans. But we have one superpower they aren’t close to mastering: mind reading.
We are blessed with a mysterious ability to reason the goals, desires and beliefs of others, a crucial skill that means we can anticipate other people’s actions and the consequences of our own. If AIs are to become truly useful in everyday life — to cooperate effectively with us or to understand that a child might run into the road after a bouncing ball — we have to give them this gift that evolution has given us to read other people's minds.
In psychology, the ability to infer another’s mental state is referred to as theory of mind. In humans, this capacity develops at a very young age. How to reproduce the capability in machines is far from clear, though. One of the main challenges is context. For instance, if someone asks whether you are going for a run and you reply “it’s raining”, they can quickly conclude the answer is no. But this requires huge amounts of background knowledge about running, weather and human preferences.
Besides, whether humans or AI, the theory of mind is supposed to emerge naturally from one’s own learning process. Building prior knowledge into AI makes it reliant on our imperfect understanding of theory of mind. In addition, AI may be capable of developing approaches we could never imagine. There can be many forms of theory of mind that we don’t know about simply because we live in a human body that has certain types of senses and a certain ability to think.
But we might still want AI to have a more human-like form of theory of mind. Humans can clearly explain their goals to each other using common language and ideas. While letting AI form the theory of mind in their learning process is likely to lead to developing more powerful AI, plainly building in shared ways to represent knowledge may be crucial for humans to trust and communicate with AI.
It is important to remember, though, that the pursuit of machines with theory of mind is about more than just building more useful robots. It is also a stepping stone on the path towards a deeper goal for AI and robotics research: building truly self-aware machines. Whether we will ever get there remains to be seen. But along the way thinking about other people and other agents, we are on the path to learning to think about ourselves.
32. According to the passage,which of the following contexts can AI understand well?
A. When asked where an object is, a naughty kid points in the wrong direction.
B. When a teacher asks for a boy’s homework, he answers “my dog ate it”.
C. When you are treated with a hotpot for dinner, you reply “a sore throat”.
D. When a mom tells her kid milk is good for health, the kid drinks it up.
33. Which statement will the author agree with most about theory of mind?
A. Humans’ theory of mind is far from perfect.
B. Humans limit AI’s theory of mind to an extent.
C. AI’s theory of mind development has been totally decoded.
D. Shared forms of theory of mind result in more powerful AI.
34. What is the author’s attitude toward truly self-aware machines?
A. Ambiguous. B. Conservative.
C. Skeptical. D. Approving.
35. Which would be the best title for the passage?
A. AI’s Theory of Mind Will Define Our Future
B. AI with Its Own Theory of Mind Is Expected
C. AI’s Theory of Mind — a Blessing or Suffering to Humans
D. Theory of Mind Bridges the Gap Between Humans and AI

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
They say scuba diving opens up a world of possibilities, from learning new skills to exploring places beyond your imagination. A few years ago, I was lucky enough to experience all these on a reef dive at the Gili Islands in Indonesia.
After my first dive, I realized that it has far more in common with yoga than it does with extreme sports. On land, switching off your brain can be a struggle. Breathing is something that just happens without thinking. When you’re diving, it’s a totally different ball game.___36___You’re suddenly aware of how your movements connect with each intake of breath.
It’s hard to feel distracted (分神的) when diving. Nature is putting on such a show-stopping performance that your attention is fully absorbed. You’re right there on the stage, in the moment. ___37___
Something I hadn’t really considered before my first scuba dive was just how human-centric our lives are on land. Everything seems to go around the human experience. But when you dive, it’s a different story entirely. ___38___ A guest in someone else’s home.
___39___ Almost everything in front of you is alive and part of a delicate ecosystem of life. Here, clownfish weave among the anemones (海葵) and parrotfish feed on their favorite coral (珊瑚). ___40___ Nothing is ours to take or touch. Suddenly, your own world feels rather tiny and you realize you’re just part of the world.
A. All of a sudden, you’re the outsider.
B. Everything here has its place and purpose.
C. This is what living in the present feels like.
D. Rarely do you take the time to stop and just “be”.
E. Exploring the undersea world is a humbling experience.
F. Your breathing becomes slow, purposeful and rhythmic.
G. Your heart races, your breath quickens and logical thinking goes out.

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。
After finishing my first marathon, I felt I could conquer(征服) anything. As I rested my aching legs, I read a friend’s article about a 70.3 triathlon (铁人三项)she had completed. She described the race as fun. Her story inspired me — should I attempt a triathlon myself?
I liked running, but cycling and swimming weren’t my strengths I had always categorized the triathlon as one of those things I’ll never do. However, encouraged by my marathon success, I found a 70.3 triathlon and registered.
I told my coach that my goal was to finish the race within 7 hours. She thought I might make it if I followed a training plan. Training, however, was tough. Every day, I had a big workout that left me exhausted. Many times I considered quitting. But I wanted to push myself and try something challenging. So I persevered with the training plan.
Finally, the race day arrived. I stood on the beach in the early morning. Three triathlon races were being held that day, and I had signed up for the longest — the 70.3 triathlon: a 1.2- mile swim, a 56- mile bike ride, and a 13.1- mile run.
People around me wore fancy triathlon suits and waterproof watches. “Are you doing the 70.3 triathlon?” I asked. To my surprise, they were all competing in the shorter races. I started panicking Everyone looked younger and fitter than I was.
I walked through the crowds until I found another 70.3 competitor —a strong man who was young enough to be my son. My anxiety increased, and I was consumed with doubt as to whether I could even complete the race.
I heard thunder as rain started hitting the beach, hoping the race would get canceled. But an announcer declared the weather was improving and the race would soon begin. With no choice but to proceed, I made my way to the starting line. As I swam, I repeated to myself, “Don’t drown.” I was behind a woman who seemed to be going the same speed, so I followed her lead. Eventually, I was out of the water.
The rain stopped, and the swim was over. My day was looking up. Cheerfully, I started the bike ride.
Paragraph 1:
Unfortunately, minutes later, it was pouring again with strong winds.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
I quickly put on dry socks, shoes, and the outfit before starting the 13.1- mile run.

My interest in the language was due to the passion of our eric lectur, and as the course progressed, my interest in the culture also grew. With that, I considered studying in the middle east, but ultimately decided on caro due to its energetic cultural scene. However, in the city, we faced some chAllenges, including difficulties finding a hotel and accommodation as we were a group of unmarried individuals. Once settled, the culture shock was intense for some of us. One member of our group returned home within the first week. Luckily, I became accustom to the life in caro. Gradually, the biggest chAllenge of learning arabic is the disconnection between the written and the spoken forms. Despite these chAllenges, learning arabic has been a rewarding experience, including absorbing my self in the culture and getting to know the locals, and even negotiating at a local market. Highlights were being invited to a traditional arabic c meal at one of the locals home and being able to confidently communicate. Overall, this experience was outside of my comfort zone and allowed me to learn and grow in interesting ways I encourage others to consider involving themselves in new cultures and languages. Thanks for listening. Good evening, everyone. I recently learned arabic c in caro.

Black Myth: Wukong is one of the most highly anticipated Chinese video games ever, a premium title with a blockbuster- worthy budget that emphasizes the country’s push to become a global cultural power. The game’s release is a landmark moment for China’s gaming industry. It is considered China’s first “AAA” title, a big- budget, global game with sophisticated gameplay and advanced visuals.
Within hours of its release, there were more than 1.5million people playing it on Steam, making it the No.1 game on the online platform. Black Myth: Wuhong is adapted from the16th- century Chinese classic novel Journey to the West. The game’s main character is inspired by Sun Wukong, also known as the Monkey King, who battles opponents with a magic iron bar.
China’s video game industry is dominated by titles played on smartphones, not big- budget console (主机游戏) or PC games that are released globally. However, Black Myth: Wukong marks a shift as it is being initially released on Sony’s PlayStation 5 and personal computers. In recent years, the industry in China has faced significant challenges. The government has implemented strict regulations to control gaming due to concerns that children could become addicted and negatively influenced. For example, Beijing has introduced rules that prohibit young people from playing games online on school days and impose strict time limits on gaming during weekends and holidays.
But the game’s launch lit up national pride. One Chinese media outlet noted that the game’s default language is Chinese and added, “It feels so good.” The global interest in the game also highlighted China’s push to exercise its “soft power.” The novel that it is based on is considered one of China’s four great classics. The game also depicts important cultural landmarks throughout China.
“The success of Black Myth: Wukong is not only a victory for the gaming industry, but also an important milestone in the overseas expansion of Chinese culture,” Yangcheng Evening News, a state- owned newspaper, wrote in an article.
24. What do we know about Black Myth: Wukong?
A. It focuses on basic gameplay elements.
B. It shifts China’s gaming towards consoles.
C. It features a world born of pure imagination.
D. It acts as a landmark for adapting Chinese myth.
25. What challenge has China’s gaming industry faced recently?
A. Insufficient budget for game development.
B. Increasing popularity of smartphone games.
C. China’s lack of emphasis on cultural soft power.
D. Government measures to restrict youth gaming time.
26. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. The game targets Western audience with its cultural themes.
B. The game is a big step in showing Chinese culture worldwide.
C. The game’s success is a way to boost China’s economic growth.
D. The game strengthens national pride by highlighting Chinese culture.
27. What can be the best title of the text?
A. Black Myth: Wukong as a Cultural Ambassador
B. The Impact of Gaming Industry on China’s Youth
C. The Impact of Gaming Industry on Chinese Culture
D. Black Myth: Wukong’s Influence on Game Mechanics
【答案】24. B 25. D 26. B 27. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了主机游戏《黑神话:悟空》以及该游戏和中国文化之间的关系。
【24题详解】

However, Black Myth: Wukong marks a shift as it is being initially released on Sony’s PlayStation 5 and personal computers.(中国的电子游戏行业主要是在智能手机上玩的游戏,而不是在全球发行的大预算游戏机或PC游戏。然而,《黑神话:悟空》标志着一个转变,因为它最初是在索尼的PlayStation 5和个人电脑上发布的。)”可知,《黑神话:悟空》改变了中国的游戏平台。故选B项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的句子“In recent years, the industry in China has faced significant challenges. The government has implemented strict regulations to control gaming due to concerns that children could become addicted and negatively influenced. For example, Beijing has introduced rules that prohibit young people from playing games online on school days and impose strict time limits on gaming during weekends and holidays.(近年来,中国的这个行业面临着巨大的挑战。政府已经实施了严格的规定来控制游戏,因为担心孩子们可能会上瘾并产生负面影响。例如,北京出台了规定,禁止年轻人在上学期间玩网络游戏,并对周末和节假日的游戏时间进行了严格限制。)”可知,中国游戏产业最近面临的挑战是政府限制青少年玩游戏的时间。故选D项。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““The success of Black Myth: Wukong is not only a victory for the gaming industry, but also an important milestone in the overseas expansion of Chinese culture,” Yangcheng Evening News, a state- owned newspaper, wrote in an article.(“《黑神话:悟空》的成功不仅是游戏行业的胜利,也是中国文化海外扩张的一个重要里程碑,”国有报纸《羊城晚报》在一篇文章中写道。)”可知,这个游戏是向世界展示中国文化的一大步。故选B项。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知,本文主要介绍了主机游戏《黑神话:悟空》以及该游戏和中国文化之间的关系,所以用A项“Black Myth: Wukong as a Cultural Ambassador(文化大使——《黑神话:悟空》)。”作为本文的题目,与文章主题相符合。故选A项。

Nearly every weekend this summer, a rising senior and small business owner, Vic Cohen together with his schoolmates could be found with their stand decorated with a variety of handmade chainmail jewelry (链甲珠宝).
Cohen only began making chainmail jewelry in April with no previous experience in jewelry making. Stuck on campus until long past the end of the semester, Cohen found themselves looking for something to keep them occupied, which led to them searching for courses online and on Pinterest after getting initial inspiration from Etsy. “This was the first time I learned how to like an actual craft and like multiple dimensions of it,” Cohen said. “This also lighted my passion for business. This idea originally started out only for my friends. And because I wanted them to get cool jewelry without having to break the bank.”
Cohen began selling their jewelry to friends and on Instagram, and eventually at art markets: around town. These markets have also been Cohen’s entry into Rochester’s dynamic art community attracting University of Rochester students, students on other campuses, and young professionals in the city. This has allowed them to learn from each other and improve on their art by learning different skills and employing different tips and tricks in their pieces. Cohen has connected with Rochester Institute of Technology and Middlesex Community College students, learning that the former institution has a jewelry- making major and meeting students within the major. “They’ve praised my work, which is absolutely crazy,” Cohen said. “This has unintentionally been a great way to make friends.” These connections led to them getting the chance to host a beginner chainmail class themselves. “I know I’m capable of teaching other people and it’s really fun to share my love for this because as a STEM major, I get so wrapped up in it, and being able to find a way out is nice.”
After graduation, Cohen plans to apply to different graduate schools and continue their small business on the side. “I want this to remain something I love,” Cohen said.
28. What inspired Cohen to start the business?
A. His previous experience. B. The thought of getting busy.
C. His passion for jewelry making. D. The inspiration from online courses.
29. What can we know about Cohen’s chainmail jewelry?
A. It is reasonably priced. B. It was initially sold online.
C. It is professionally designed. D. It was first intended for credits.
30. What can people do in Rochester’s art community?
A. Attend courses of jewelry making. B. Raise their skills in making jewelry.
C. Gain admission to the jewelry major. D. Achieve a goal of gaining treasure.
31. Why did Cohen teach other people to make jewelry?
A. To show the love for art. B. To share a way of relief.
C. To realize his dream of helping others. D. To display his talent in making jewelry.
【答案】28. D 29. A 30. B 31. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文,文章主要讲述STEM专业的学生Vic Cohen开创自己的链甲珠宝生意的故事。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Cohen found themselves looking for something to keep them occupied, which led to them searching for courses online and on Pinterest after getting initial inspiration from Etsy. “This was the first time I learned how to like an actual craft and like multiple dimensions of it,” Cohen said. “This also lighted my passion for business. (Cohen发现自己在寻找一些让自己有事可做的事情,这导致他们在Etsy上获得最初的灵感后,在网上和Pinterest上搜索课程。Cohen说:‘这是我第一次学会如何喜欢一艘真正的飞船,以及它的多个维度。’这也点燃了我对商业的热情)”可知,Cohen在网上课程获得的灵感鼓舞他开始了他的珠宝生意,故选D。
【29题详解】

Superhuman artificial intelligence has played a role in our life. When it comes to playing games like chess, or solving difficult scientific challenges like predicting protein structures, computers are well ahead of humans. But we have one superpower they aren’t close to mastering: mind reading.
We are blessed with a mysterious ability to reason the goals, desires and beliefs of others, a crucial skill that means we can anticipate other people’s actions and the consequences of our own. If AIs are to become truly useful in everyday life — to cooperate effectively with us or to understand that a child might run into the road after a bouncing ball — we have to give them this gift that evolution has given us to read other people's minds.
In psychology, the ability to infer another’s mental state is referred to as theory of mind. In humans, this capacity develops at a very young age. How to reproduce the capability in machines is far from clear, though. One of the main challenges is context. For instance, if someone asks whether you are going for a run and you reply “it’s raining”, they can quickly conclude the answer is no. But this requires huge amounts of background knowledge about running, weather and human preferences.
Besides, whether humans or AI, the theory of mind is supposed to emerge naturally from one’s own learning process. Building prior knowledge into AI makes it reliant on our imperfect understanding of theory of mind. In addition, AI may be capable of developing approaches we could never imagine. There can be many forms of theory of mind that we don’t know about simply because we live in a human body that has certain types of senses and a certain ability to think.
But we might still want AI to have a more human-like form of theory of mind. Humans can clearly explain their goals to each other using common language and ideas. While letting AI form the theory of mind in their learning process is likely to lead to developing more powerful AI, plainly building in shared ways to represent knowledge may be crucial for humans to trust and communicate with AI.
It is important to remember, though, that the pursuit of machines with theory of mind is about more than just building more useful robots. It is also a stepping stone on the path towards a deeper goal for AI and robotics research: building truly self-aware machines. Whether we will ever get there remains to be seen. But along the way thinking about other people and other agents, we are on the path to learning to think about ourselves.
32. According to the passage,which of the following contexts can AI understand well?
A. When asked where an object is, a naughty kid points in the wrong direction.
B. When a teacher asks for a boy’s homework, he answers “my dog ate it”.
C. When you are treated with a hotpot for dinner, you reply “a sore throat”.
D. When a mom tells her kid milk is good for health, the kid drinks it up.
33. Which statement will the author agree with most about theory of mind?
A. Humans’ theory of mind is far from perfect.
B. Humans limit AI’s theory of mind to an extent.
C. AI’s theory of mind development has been totally decoded.
D. Shared forms of theory of mind result in more powerful AI.
34. What is the author’s attitude toward truly self-aware machines?
A. Ambiguous. B. Conservative.
C. Skeptical. D. Approving.
35. Which would be the best title for the passage?
A. AI’s Theory of Mind Will Define Our Future
B. AI with Its Own Theory of Mind Is Expected
C AI’s Theory of Mind — a Blessing or Suffering to Humans
D. Theory of Mind Bridges the Gap Between Humans and AI
【答案】32. D 33. B 34. D 35. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了AI在心智理论发展中的挑战及其对人类沟通信任的影响。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“We are blessed with a mysterious ability to reason the goals,desires and beliefs of others,a crucial skill that means we can anticipate other people’s actions and the consequences of our own. If AIs are to become truly useful in everyday life — to cooperate effectively with us or to understand that a child might run into the road after a bouncing ball — we have to give them this gift that evolution has given us to read other people’s minds.(我们拥有着一种神秘的能力,可以推理出他人的目标、欲望和信念,这是一种至关重要的技能,使我们能够预判他人的行动以及我们自身行为的后果。如果要让人工智能在日常生活中真正发挥作用——与我们有效协作,或是理解孩子可能会因为追一个弹跳的球而跑到马路上——我们必须赋予它们这种通过进化赐予我们的、解读他人想法的能力)”可知,AI不具备人类推理出他人的目标、欲望和信念的能力。由此可推知,“当妈妈告诉孩子牛奶对健康有益时,孩子就把它喝光了”不涉及推理,AI可以轻松理解。故选D。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段的“Building prior knowledge into AI makes it reliant on our imperfect understanding of theory of mind. In addition, AI may be capable of developing approaches we could never imagine. There can be many forms of theory of mind that we don’t know about simply because we live in a human body that has certain types of senses and a certain ability to think.(将先验知识植入人工智能会使它依赖于我们对心智理论这种不完美的理解。此外,人工智能或许能够发展出我们完全无法想象的方法。可能存在许多形式的心智理论,而我们之所以不了解它们,仅仅是因为我们生而为人,具有特定类型的感官和特定的思考能力)”可知,人类在一定程度上限制了AI的思维理论,作者最有可能同意这个观点。故选B。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的“But we might still want AI to have a more human-like form of theory of mind.(但我们可能仍然希望人工智能有一种更像人类的心理理论形式)”以及最后一段的“It is also a stepping stone on the path towards a deeper goal for AI and robotics research: building truly self-aware machines.Whether we will ever get there remains to be seen.But along the way thinking about other people and other agents,we are on the path to learning to think about ourselves.(这也是通往人工智能和机器人研究更深目标的垫脚石:建造真正具备自我意识的机器。我们是否能够最终达到这一目标还有待观察。但在这一过程中,通过思考其他人和其他主体,我们正走在学会反思自我的道路上)”可推知,作者支持开发具有心智理论的AI, 期待建造真正有自我意识的机器。故选D。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第一段的“Superhuman artificial intelligence has played a role in our life.When it comes to playing games like chess,or solving difficult scientific challenges like predicting protein structures,computers are well ahead of humans.But we have one superpower they aren't close to mastering:mind reading.(超人级别的人工智能已经在我们的生活中发挥了作用。无论是下棋游戏,还是解决像预测蛋白质结构这样复杂的科学挑战,计算机的表现都远远超过了人类。但我们拥有一种它们尚未接近掌握的超能力:读心术)”以及最后一段的“It is also a stepping stone on the path towards a deeper goal for AI and robotics research: building truly self-aware machines.Whether we will ever get there remains to be seen.But along the way thinking about other people and other agents,we are on the path to learning to think about ourselves.(这也是通往人工智能和机器人研究更深目标的垫脚石:建造真正具备自我意识的机器。我们是否能够最终达到这一目标还有待观察。但在这一过程中,通过思考其他人和其他主体,我们正走在学会反思自我的道路上)可知,文章主要探讨了超人人工智能虽在特定任务上超越人类,但在“读心术”(理解他人意图)方面仍显不足,强调了为AI赋予类似人类的“心智理论”能力的重要性及其挑战。所以“人工智能有望拥有自己的心智理论”适合作本文的标题。故选B。

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
They say scuba diving opens up a world of possibilities, from learning new skills to exploring places beyond your imagination. A few years ago, I was lucky enough to experience all these on a reef dive at the Gili Islands in Indonesia.
After my first dive, I realized that it has far more in common with yoga than it does with extreme sports. On land, switching off your brain can be a struggle. Breathing is something that just happens without thinking. When you’re diving, it’s a totally different ball game.___36___You’re suddenly aware of how your movements connect with each intake of breath.
It’s hard to feel distracted (分神的) when diving. Nature is putting on such a show-stopping performance that your attention is fully absorbed. You’re right there on the stage, in the moment. ___37___
Something I hadn’t really considered before my first scuba dive was just how human-centric our lives are on land. Everything seems to go around the human experience. But when you dive, it’s a different story entirely. ___38___ A guest in someone else’s home.
___39___ Almost everything in front of you is alive and part of a delicate ecosystem of life. Here, clownfish weave among the anemones (海葵) and parrotfish feed on their favorite coral (珊瑚). ___40___ Nothing is ours to take or touch. Suddenly, your own world feels rather tiny and you realize you’re just part of the world.
A. All of a sudden, you’re the outsider.
B. Everything here has its place and purpose.
C. This is what living in the present feels like.
D. Rarely do you take the time to stop and just “be”.
E. Exploring the undersea world is a humbling experience.
F. Your breathing becomes slow, purposeful and rhythmic.
G. Your heart races, your breath quickens and logical thinking goes out.
【答案】36. F 37. C 38. A 39. E 40. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者在印度尼西亚吉利群岛潜水时一些感悟,包括潜水与瑜伽的相似之处、潜水时专注的感受、潜水让人意识到自己只是世界的一部分等。
【36题详解】
上文“On land, switching off your brain can be a struggle. Breathing is something that just happens without thinking. When you’re diving, it’s a totally different ball game.(在陆地上,让大脑停止运转可能是一件难事。呼吸却是自然而然发生的事情,无需思考。但当你潜水时,情况就完全不同了)”指出潜水时呼吸与陆地上不同,空后“You’re suddenly aware of how your movements connect with each intake of breath.(你会突然意识到,自己的每一个动作都与每一次呼吸紧密相连。)”接 “突然意识到动作与每次吸气的关联”,因此推断F项“你的呼吸变得缓慢、有目的、有节奏。”是衔接 “呼吸模式改变” 的核心,自然引出后续对呼吸与动作关联的感知。故选F项。
【37题详解】
上文“It’s hard to feel distracted (分神的) when diving. Nature is putting on such a show-stopping performance that your attention is fully absorbed. You’re right there on the stage, in the moment. (潜水时很难分心。大自然正在上演如此精彩的表演,以至于你的注意力完全被吸收了。此刻你就在舞台上)”说明潜水时犹如置身于一个正在上演精彩表演的舞台,人的注意力完全集中在当下。C选项“This is what living in the present feels like.(这就是活在当下的感觉)”进一步解释这种感觉,与上文语意连贯。故选C项。
【38题详解】
下文“A guest in someone else’s home.(在别人家里的客人)”与A选项“All of a sudden, you’re the outsider.(突然间,你成了局外人)”语意一致,说明潜水与陆地上的体验不同,在海里,自己成了局外人,成了别人家里的客人,上下文语意连贯。故选A项。
【39题详解】
下文“Almost everything in front of you is alive and part of a delicate ecosystem of life. Here, clownfish weave among the anemones (海葵) and parrotfish feed on their favorite coral (珊瑚).(你面前几乎所有的东西都是有生命的,是生命脆弱生态系统的一部分。在这里,小丑鱼在海葵之间穿梭,鹦嘴鱼在它们最喜欢的珊瑚上觅食。)”和“Nothing is ours to take or touch. Suddenly, your own world feels rather tiny and you realize you’re just part of the world.(没有什么是我们可以拿走或触摸的。突然,你自己的世界变得相当渺小,你意识到你只是世界的一部分)”提到潜水时看到的生物都是生态系统的一部分,是独特的海洋世界,你自己的世界变得相当渺小,你意识到你只是世界的一部分,E选项“Exploring the undersea world is a humbling experience.(探索海底世界是一种让人谦逊的体验)”总领下文,说明潜水让人意识到自己只是自然的一部分,是渺小的,会让人谦逊。故选E项。
【40题详解】
前文“Here, clownfish weave among the anemones (海葵) and parrotfish feed on their favorite coral (珊瑚).(在这里,小丑鱼在海葵之间穿梭,鹦嘴鱼在它们最喜欢的珊瑚上觅食。)”说到海底世界的独特,B选项“Everything here has its place and purpose.(这里的一切都有其位置和意义)”的进一步阐述和说明。说明潜水时看到的生物都是生态系统的一部分,它们在整个生态系统中都有其存在的位置和意义,上下文语意连贯。故选B项。

【63题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:有些盲盒里装的是基于商店晚间前销售情况预先包装好的餐食,而另一些则允许顾客在关店前后从商店剩余的食物中选择。这里考查非谓语,meals与base之间为被动关系,再由语境可知,应用过去分词作后置定语。故填based。
【64题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:有些盲盒里装的是基于商店晚间前销售情况预先包装好的餐食,而另一些则允许顾客在关店前后从商店剩余的食物中选择。customer为可数名词,此处表示泛指,应用复数形式customers。故填customers。
【65题详解】
考查冠词。句意:盲盒里的内容通常只有在打开时才会揭晓,这为用餐体验增添了一份惊喜。element为可数名词单数,此处表示泛指应用不定冠词,且element以元音音素开头,应用不定冠词an。故填an。

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。
After finishing my first marathon, I felt I could conquer(征服) anything. As I rested my aching legs, I read a friend’s article about a 70.3 triathlon (铁人三项)she had completed. She described the race as fun. Her story inspired me — should I attempt a triathlon myself?
I liked running, but cycling and swimming weren’t my strengths I had always categorized the triathlon as one of those things I’ll never do. However, encouraged by my marathon success, I found a 70.3 triathlon and registered.
I told my coach that my goal was to finish the race within 7 hours. She thought I might make it if I followed a training plan. Training, however, was tough. Every day, I had a big workout that left me exhausted. Many times I considered quitting. But I wanted to push myself and try something challenging. So I persevered with the training plan.
Finally, the race day arrived. I stood on the beach in the early morning. Three triathlon races were being held that day, and I had signed up for the longest — the 70.3 triathlon: a 1.2- mile swim, a 56- mile bike ride, and a 13.1- mile run.
People around me wore fancy triathlon suits and waterproof watches. “Are you doing the 70.3 triathlon?” I asked. To my surprise, they were all competing in the shorter races. I started panicking Everyone looked younger and fitter than I was.
I walked through the crowds until I found another 70.3 competitor —a strong man who was young enough to be my son. My anxiety increased, and I was consumed with doubt as to whether I could even complete the race.
I heard thunder as rain started hitting the beach, hoping the race would get canceled. But an announcer declared the weather was improving and the race would soon begin. With no choice but to proceed, I made my way to the starting line. As I swam, I repeated to myself, “Don’t drown.” I was behind a woman who seemed to be going the same speed, so I followed her lead. Eventually, I was out of the water.
The rain stopped, and the swim was over. My day was looking up. Cheerfully, I started the bike ride.
Paragraph 1:
Unfortunately, minutes later, it was pouring again with strong winds.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
I quickly put on dry socks, shoes, and the outfit before starting the 13.1- mile run.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Unfortunately, minutes later, it was pouring again with strong winds. The rain lashed at my face, and the wind made it difficult to keep my balance on the bike. I struggled to see through the sheets of rain, my heart sinking. My spirits were dampened as I pedaled on, feeling the cold seep into my bones. Doubts crept back in. Would I be able to finish this race? But then I thought of all the training I had put in and the determination that had brought me this far. I gritted my teeth and continued to battle against the elements.
I quickly put on dry socks, shoes, and the outfit before starting the 13.1-mile run. As I began to run, my legs felt heavy and tired from the previous events. But I pushed on, one step at a time. The crowd cheered me on, and their energy gave me a boost. With every step, I grew more confident. Despite the challenges I had faced throughout the day, I was determined to cross that finish line. As I neared the end, a sense of accomplishment washed over me. I had done it. I had completed the triathlon.
