Here are some children’s books about space and the solar system. Mae among the Stars by Stasia Burrington This beautifully illustrated picture book is attractive to young kids. It was inspired by the first African American woman in space, Mae Jemison. It tells the story of Mae as a little girl, who always knew she had big dreams about space. This is a great addition to a young kid’s collection, as a reminder to hold tight to dreams and never give up. Space by Libby Jackson This beautifully illustrated book gives kids a look at 50 women from around the world who were involved in exploring space in some way, from the 19th century to the present day. This is a perfect gift for young kids who want to know more about some of the lesser-known scientific achievements related to space exploration. Chasing Space by Leland Melvin This is Melvin’s story about being a football player-turned-astronaut, along with his recovery from an injury that nearly left him deaf. Kids will love reading his story about how he faced challenges and advanced ahead, and he also includes DIY experiments for kids to try, and a section of full-color photographs. System and Beyond by David A Aguilar The book is full of beautiful illustrations of space, and is perfect for kids of all ages, exploring various planets and the solar system. Unlike other kids’ space book, this is a National Geographic book written and illustrated by an award-winning astronomer and space artist. Aguilar is also the former Director of Science Information and Public Outreach at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics. 1. What do Mae among the Stars and Space have in common? A. They include less-known astronauts. B. They tell about scientists’ childhood. C. They cover women exploring space. D. They are suitable for children of all ages. 2. Whose book attracts children showing interest in experiments? A. Stasia Burrington’s. B. Libby Jackson’s. C. Leland Melvin’s. D. David A. Aguilar’s. 3. What is unique to System and Beyond? A. It has beautiful pictures. B. It tells about space artists. C. It has won many grand awards. D. It was written by an astronomer. B A Texas woman says that she took two kittens (小猫) into her home, only to discover that they were not housecats. Jane Dinscore, her sister and her niece were bitten on the hands while trying to feed them. “I think they started doing a little bit more research and thinking. These don’t look like standard housecats. Maybe we should call somebody. Thankfully, they did. San Antonio Animal Care Services (ACS) spokeswoman Lisa Norwood told local TV station KENS 5 on Monday. But Jane Dinscore has changed her story since the news broke on Monday. Originally, she told the authorities she found the kittens in an alleyway (小巷) in San Antonio. Now she says she received the kittens from her brother, James Dinscore, in rural Atascosa County. However, she maintains that she believed the kittens were pet cats. She says she took the kittens home and called ACS after they began biting her and her relatives. She says she lied at first about their origin in the interest of her brother. ACS and Texas State Parks and Wildlife are working together to determine if the situation deserves any criminal charges for disturbing wildlife, according to USA Today. The animals are now under the care of Wildlife Rescue Rehabilitation in San Antonio. The group hopes to eventually release the bobcats in a safe area. In general, wild animals should be left in the wild. If you suspect a problem with a wild animal or believe you have found one that’s sick, injured or abandoned, call a local wildlife center or animal control organization. And if you believe an animal you’ve found is a lost pet, you may take it to an animal shelter or a rescue group. 4. What happened to Jane Dinscore? A. She was attacked by her kittens. B. She was interviewed by KENS 5. C. She was accused of disturbing wildlife. D. She was forced to live in Atascosa County. 5. Why did Jane Dinscore tell a lie at first? A. She was sure her kittens were housecats. B. She was told to keep everything a secret. C. She was unwilling to cause her brother trouble. D. She was afraid her kittens would be taken away. 6 How will Wildlife Rescue Rehabilitation in San Antonio deal with the bobcats? A. Set them free in the wild. B. Send them to a pet shelter. C. Help them find their mother. D. Raise them until they are adopted. 7. What’s the author’s purpose of writing the last paragraph? A. To arouse curiosity. B. To invite comments. C. To make predictions. D. To provide suggestions. C A challenge of teaching mathematics rather than, say, history is that the homework is a lot harder to come up with. After all, “Was Henry VIII a good king?” is a reasonable question to ask either a classroom of nine-year-olds or a lecture theatre of postgraduates. But “Solve this quadratic equation (二次方程式)” would leave the classroom nonplussed and the lecture theatre unimpressed. Maths is learned by doing and designing a problem that is easy enough to be accessible, yet hard enough to be satisfying, is a big headache in itself. Partly for this reason, books that successfully communicate how mathematicians think, but are aimed at those not already in the field, are both valuable and rare. Now Sir David Spiegelhalter, professor of statistics at the University of Cambridge, has added to the category with The Art of Uncertainty. His new book will appeal to many more than just mathematicians, for its topic is universal: how to analyse chance, uncertainty and risk. If a new virus is running wild and the majority of deaths are among those who have received a newer vaccine (疫苗), is that evidence that the vaccination program is harmful? How much of top football teams’ performance comes down to luck rather than skill? Professor Spiegelhalter’s exploration of such questions is delightful. First, he uses them to illustrate broader ideas about how probability and statistics work. So a discussion of vaccine safety proceeds to Bayes’s theorem, a procedure for improving one’s judgment of probabilities as new evidence comes to light. The joy of Professor Spiegelhalter’s approach is that he reaches this deep truth through nothing more than some intuitive (直觉的) assumptions and very simple maths. Most important, though, is Professor Spiegelhalter’s skill at communicating these ideas. Much of probability and statistics can go against our intuition, and the maths behind it is often fearsome. But this is not a difficult book to read or understand. 8. What does the underlined word “nonplussed” in paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Impressed. B. Inspired. C. Confused. D. Amused. 9. What is the biggest selling point of The Art of Uncertainty according to the author? A. It casts light on math thoughts. B. It covers various topics. C. It makes sense to ordinary people. D. It satisfies maths professionals. 10. Why does the author mention Bayes’s theorem in paragraph 3? A. To prove the reliability of intuition. B. To reveal the book’s academic nature. C. To underline the deep truth of judgement. D. To demonstrate Spiegelhalter’s writing approach. 11. What is the text mainly about? A. A master of math teaching. B. A book on intuitive assumptions. C. A discussion of risk management. D. A guide to understanding probability. D Tesla’s self-driving cars have recently come under investigation as a report on crashes raises questions about their safety. Despite Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s claim that their Autopilot capability makes their cars “ extremely safer,” data suggests otherwise. According to The Washington Post, the number of deaths and serious injuries associated with Tesla’s driver-assistance technology is higher than previously reported. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) recorded 736 crashes since 2019, with at least 17 of them being fatal. These figures include crashes involving both Autopilot, which allows cars to drive on highways without human intervention(干预), and the newer Full Self-Driving feature, which extends automation to city streets. However, these statistics can’t record incidents that were avoided due to the cars’ safety features. Additionally, when compared to the total number of car crashes that occurred last year, the number of crashes involving driver-assistance vehicles appears relatively small, but actually it’s not. Tesla’s safety claims lack context as Autopilot is primarily designed for highways, while most accidents occur in more complex environments with cross-traffic, pedestrians, and cyclists. Moreover, Tesla’s customer base consists mainly of wealthier individuals who live in communities with lower accident rates. Concerns are raised by Tesla’s request to the NHTSA not to reveal whether Autopilot or Full Self-Driving was in use during fatal crashes. This lack of transparency (透明) prevents a comprehensive analysis of the incidents and raises questions about responsibility. Safety exaggerations combined with Tesla’s aggressive marketing have led to accidents caused by drivers relying too heavily on the system. Full Self-Driving does not allow the car to fully drive itself, and drivers are expected to remain attentive and ready to intervene at all times. However, Tesla’s messaging may mislead some users into believing otherwise. While a driverless future has the potential to be safer, it is crucial not to convince the public that underdeveloped capabilities are ready for widespread use. Tesla should address past problems, ensure their automation set can detect(检测) emergency vehicles, and be transparent with the public about the limitations of their technology. 12. What can we learn about Tesla’s driver-assistance-related crashes? A. 736 fatal cases of self-driving are recorded. B. NHTSA focused on the crashes on highways. C. The total number of car crashes is extremely small. D. The incidents avoided are not counted in the crash statistics. 13. What can be inferred about Tesla’s safety claims? A. They are supported by comprehensive data. B. They are based on limited driving environment. C. They are restricted to the experiences of satisfied customers. D. They have been proven to be accurate and reliable by NHTSA． 14. What can we know about Full Self-Driving? A. It is ill-received. B. It is well-developed. C. It needs the driver to stay focused. D. It reduces the accidents greatly. 15. Which title best summarizes the content of this text? A. Concerns and Questions Surrounding Tesla’s “Self-Driving” Cars B Tesla’s Self-Driving Cars: The Safest Option of Driving on the Road C. The Future of Self-Driving Cars: A Closer Look at Tesla’s Technology D. Reconstruction and Revolution of Tesla’s Autopilot and Full Self-Driving 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文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。 Major Snow, the 21st solar term of the year, begins this year on Dec 7 and ends on Dec 20, marking the start of the season.

The map, yellowed with age, described a mysterious island that had the legendary(传说的) Silver Falcon, a statue that was said to award its finder enormous wisdom and fortune. As typical eighth graders with the excitement of discovery and dreams of greatness, they decided they would be the ones to discover this hidden treasure. They agreed to start this search during the up-and-coming spring break, keeping their plans a secret from the adults who would undoubtedly discourage such a dangerous adventure. The days that followed were filled with preparation. They read books on survival, learned about the stars for navigation, and tested their courage in smaller woods. The boys were united by their unshakable resolve and the promise of an adventure that could change their lives forever. As spring break began, they set out just as the sun painted the sky with colors of orange and gold. They felt a mixture of excitement and slight nervousness. They carried backpacks filled with supplies and the ancient map that they hoped would lead them to glory. The beginning of their journey was full of laughter and songs around the campfire, but as days passed, the trip's reality set in. The path grew more dangerous, and the maps guided them through thick woods and muddy wetlands. They learned to work together as their friendship was tested by constant challenges. Slowly, the island drew nearer. A conflict arose when they reached the foot of Mount Veritas, the final barrier before reaching the island. Lucas twisted his ankle, and the slightest movement sent sharp pains shooting through his leg. With time running out, Jack and Simon had to make a choice: should they push on and risk Lucas’ well-being or turn back after coming so far? 注意: 1.续写词数应为150左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 At crossroads, Jack and Simon exchanged knowing glances. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When reaching the Silver Falcon, the three boys found no fortune there at all. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 乐山一中高2026届高二（下）3月月考英语测试卷 (卷面分数150分 考试用时120分钟) 第一部分：听力(共两节，满分30分) 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节(共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

It tells the story of Mae as a little girl, who always knew she had big dreams about space. (它的灵感来自第一位进入太空的非裔美国女性梅·杰米森。它讲述了梅作为一个小女孩的故事，她一直知道她对太空有很大的梦想。)”，而Space by Libby Jackson的第一句“This beautifully illustrated book gives kids a look at 50 women from around the world who were involved in exploring space in some way, from the 19th century to the present day. (这本精美的插图书让孩子们看到了从19世纪到现在，来自世界各地的50位女性，她们以某种方式参与了太空探索。)”可知，《星际漫游》和《太空漫游》的共同之处是：它们都涉及到那些探索太空的女性。故选C项。 【2题详解】 推理判断题。根据Chasing Space by Leland Melvin的“Kids will love reading his story about how he faced challenges and advanced ahead, and he also includes DIY experiments for kids to try, and a section of full-color photographs. (孩子们会喜欢读他关于他如何面对挑战和前进的故事，他还包括DIY实验供孩子们尝试，以及一组全彩照片。)”可知，对实验感兴趣的孩子会被Leland Melvin的书吸引。故选C项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据System and Beyond by David A. Aguilar的“Unlike other kids’ space book, this is a National Geographic book written and illustrated by an award-winning astronomer and space artist. Aguilar is also the former Director of Science Information and Public Outreach at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics. (与其他儿童太空书不同，这是一本由获奖的天文学家和太空艺术家撰写和插图的国家地理书。阿吉拉尔还是哈佛-史密森天体物理中心的前科学信息和公共宣传主任。)”可知，这本《系统及其他》与其他读物的不同之处是作者本人的身份是天文学家，能为读者提供专家的观点和对主题的见解。故选D项。 B A Texas woman says that she took two kittens (小猫) into her home, only to discover that they were not housecats. Jane Dinscore, her sister and her niece were bitten on the hands while trying to feed them. “I think they started doing a little bit more research and thinking. These don’t look like standard housecats. Maybe we should call somebody. Thankfully, they did. San Antonio Animal Care Services (ACS) spokeswoman Lisa Norwood told local TV station KENS 5 on Monday. But Jane Dinscore has changed her story since the news broke on Monday. Originally, she told the authorities she found the kittens in an alleyway (小巷) in San Antonio. Now she says she received the kittens from her brother, James Dinscore, in rural Atascosa County. However, she maintains that she believed the kittens were pet cats. She says she took the kittens home and called ACS after they began biting her and her relatives. She says she lied at first about their origin in the interest of her brother. ACS and Texas State Parks and Wildlife are working together to determine if the situation deserves any criminal charges for disturbing wildlife, according to USA Today. The animals are now under the care of Wildlife Rescue Rehabilitation in San Antonio. The group hopes to eventually release the bobcats in a safe area. In general, wild animals should be left in the wild. If you suspect a problem with a wild animal or believe you have found one that’s sick, injured or abandoned, call a local wildlife center or animal control organization. And if you believe an animal you’ve found is a lost pet, you may take it to an animal shelter or a rescue group. 4. What happened to Jane Dinscore? A. She was attacked by her kittens. B. She was interviewed by KENS 5. C. She was accused of disturbing wildlife. D. She was forced to live in Atascosa County. 5. Why did Jane Dinscore tell a lie at first? A. She was sure her kittens were housecats. B. She was told to keep everything a secret. C. She was unwilling to cause her brother trouble. D. She was afraid her kittens would be taken away. 6. How will Wildlife Rescue Rehabilitation in San Antonio deal with the bobcats? A. Set them free in the wild. B. Send them to a pet shelter. C. Help them find their mother. D. Raise them until they are adopted. 7. What’s the author’s purpose of writing the last paragraph? A. To arouse curiosity. B. To invite comments. C. To make predictions. D. To provide suggestions. 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. A 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了德克萨斯州的一名妇女说她把两只小猫带回家，却发现它们是山猫，最终山猫被野生动物救援康复中心接收，照顾，计划放归野外。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Jane Dinscore, her sister and her niece were bitten on the hands while trying to feed them.(简·丁斯克，她的妹妹和侄女在试图喂他们的时候被咬伤了手)”可知，在喂“猫”的时候Jane Dinscore被咬伤了手，即被猫攻击了。故选A。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“She says she lied at first about their origin in the interest of her brother.(她说，为了她哥哥，她一开始对它们的来历撒了谎)”可知，她刚开始的时候撒谎，是考虑到哥哥的利益，也就是不想给她哥哥找麻烦。故选C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段最后一句“The group hopes to eventually release the bobcats in a safe area.(该组织希望最终将山猫释放到一个安全的区域)”可知，这个组织希望最后将山猫放归至安全的地方，即放归野外。故选A。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“In general, wild animals should be left in the wild. If you suspect a problem with a wild animal or believe you have found one that’s sick, injured or abandoned, call a local wildlife center or animal control organization. And if you believe an animal, you’ve found is a lost pet, you may take it to an animal shelter or a rescue group.(一般来说，野生动物应该留在野外。如果你怀疑野生动物有问题，或者你认为你发现了一只生病、受伤或被遗弃的动物，打电话给当地的野生动物中心或动物控制组织。如果你相信你找到的动物是一只走失的宠物，你可以把它带到动物收容所或救援组织)”可知，最后主要是告诉人们野生动物应该生存在野外不被打扰，并告诉人们遇到了野生动物或宠物该如何处理，所以最后一段的目的是提供建议。故选D。 C A challenge of teaching mathematics rather than, say, history is that the homework is a lot harder to come up with. After all, “Was Henry VIII a good king?” is a reasonable question to ask either a classroom of nine-year-olds or a lecture theatre of postgraduates. But “Solve this quadratic equation (二次方程式)” would leave the classroom nonplussed and the lecture theatre unimpressed. Maths is learned by doing and designing a problem that is easy enough to be accessible, yet hard enough to be satisfying, is a big headache in itself. Partly for this reason, books that successfully communicate how mathematicians think, but are aimed at those not already in the field, are both valuable and rare. Now Sir David Spiegelhalter, professor of statistics at the University of Cambridge, has added to the category with The Art of Uncertainty. His new book will appeal to many more than just mathematicians, for its topic is universal: how to analyse chance, uncertainty and risk. If a new virus is running wild and the majority of deaths are among those who have received a newer vaccine (疫苗), is that evidence that the vaccination program is harmful? How much of top football teams’ performance comes down to luck rather than skill? Professor Spiegelhalter’s exploration of such questions is delightful. First, he uses them to illustrate broader ideas about how probability and statistics work. So a discussion of vaccine safety proceeds to Bayes’s theorem, a procedure for improving one’s judgment of probabilities as new evidence comes to light. The joy of Professor Spiegelhalter’s approach is that he reaches this deep truth through nothing more than some intuitive (直觉的) assumptions and very simple maths. Most important, though, is Professor Spiegelhalter’s skill at communicating these ideas. Much of probability and statistics can go against our intuition, and the maths behind it is often fearsome. But this is not a difficult book to read or understand. 8. What does the underlined word “nonplussed” in paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Impressed. B. Inspired. C. Confused. D. Amused. 9. What is the biggest selling point of The Art of Uncertainty according to the author? A. It casts light on math thoughts. B. It covers various topics. C. It makes sense to ordinary people. D. It satisfies maths professionals. 10. Why does the author mention Bayes’s theorem in paragraph 3? A. To prove the reliability of intuition. B. To reveal the book’s academic nature. C. To underline the deep truth of judgement. D. To demonstrate Spiegelhalter’s writing approach. 11. What is the text mainly about? A. A master of math teaching. B. A book on intuitive assumptions. C A discussion of risk management. D. A guide to understanding probability. 【答案】8. C 9. C 10. D 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了一本名为《不确定性的艺术》的新书，该书通过直观假设和简单数学阐述了深刻真理，且文字通俗易懂，适合广大读者阅读。 【8题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第一段中的“But ‘Solve this quadratic equation (二次方程式)’ would leave the classroom nonplussed and the lecture theatre unimpressed.(但是“解这个二次方程”会让教室里的学生感到……，让讲堂里的听众不感兴趣)”可知，and后并列的信息为“讲堂里的听众不感兴趣”，因此划线词信息应该与其保持一致，即对于让学生“解这个二次方程”的反应应该是感到困惑不解。因此，划线词意为“困惑的，不知所措的”与C选项“Confused.(感到困惑的)”为同义词。故选C项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“His new book will appeal to many more than just mathematicians, for its topic is universal: how to analyse chance, uncertainty and risk.(他的新书将吸引更多的人，而不仅仅是数学家，因为它的主题是普遍的：如何分析机会，不确定性和风险。)”可知，因为该书主题的普遍性，他的新书不仅仅会吸引数学家，还会吸引更多人。由此可知，《不确定性的艺术》这本书最大的卖点是它对普通人来说很有意义。故选C项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“First, he uses them to illustrate broader ideas about how probability and statistics work. So a discussion of vaccine safety proceeds to Bayes’s theorem, a procedure for improving one’s judgment of probabilities as new evidence comes to light. (首先，斯皮格尔哈尔特教授用这些问题来阐述关于概率和统计如何工作的更广泛的思想。因此，关于疫苗安全性的讨论就涉及到了贝叶斯定理，这是一个随着新证据的出现而改进人们对概率判断的程序。)”以及“The joy of Professor Spiegelhalter’s approach is that he reaches this deep truth through nothing more than some intuitive (直觉的) assumptions and very simple maths.( 斯皮格尔哈尔特教授的方法的乐趣在于，他只是通过一些直觉假设和非常简单的数学就得出了这个深刻的真理。)”可知，作者在第三段中提到贝叶斯定理是为了证明斯皮格尔哈尔特的写作方法，即通过简单的直觉假设和数学得出深刻的真理。故选D项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第二段中的“Now Sir David Spiegelhalter, professor of statistics at the University of Cambridge, has added to the category with The Art of Uncertainty. His new book will appeal to many more than just mathematicians, for its topic is universal: how to analyse chance, uncertainty and risk.( 现在，剑桥大学统计学教授大卫•斯皮格尔哈尔特(David Spiegelhalter)用《不确定性的艺术》(The Art of Uncertainty)一书为这个类别增添了新的内容。他的新书将吸引更多非数学家的人群，因为它的主题是普遍的：如何分析机会、不确定性和风险。)”可知，本文主要介绍了大卫•斯皮格尔哈尔特教授的新书《不确定性的艺术》，这本书的主题是关于如何分析机会、不确定性和风险的，即本文主要讲的是一本关于理解概率的指南。D选项“A guide to understanding probability.(理解概率的指南。)”符合文章主旨。故选D项。 D Tesla’s self-driving cars have recently come under investigation as a report on crashes raises questions about their safety. Despite Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s claim that their Autopilot capability makes their cars “ extremely safer,” data suggests otherwise. According to The Washington Post, the number of deaths and serious injuries associated with Tesla’s driver-assistance technology is higher than previously reported. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) recorded 736 crashes since 2019, with at least 17 of them being fatal. These figures include crashes involving both Autopilot, which allows cars to drive on highways without human intervention(干预), and the newer Full Self-Driving feature, which extends automation to city streets. However, these statistics can’t record incidents that were avoided due to the cars’ safety features. Additionally, when compared to the total number of car crashes that occurred last year, the number of crashes involving driver-assistance vehicles appears relatively small, but actually it’s not. Tesla’s safety claims lack context as Autopilot is primarily designed for highways, while most accidents occur in more complex environments with cross-traffic, pedestrians, and cyclists. Moreover, Tesla’s customer base consists mainly of wealthier individuals who live in communities with lower accident rates. Concerns are raised by Tesla’s request to the NHTSA not to reveal whether Autopilot or Full Self-Driving was in use during fatal crashes. This lack of transparency (透明) prevents a comprehensive analysis of the incidents and raises questions about responsibility. Safety exaggerations combined with Tesla’s aggressive marketing have led to accidents caused by drivers relying too heavily on the system. Full Self-Driving does not allow the car to fully drive itself, and drivers are expected to remain attentive and ready to intervene at all times. However, Tesla’s messaging may mislead some users into believing otherwise. While a driverless future has the potential to be safer, it is crucial not to convince the public that underdeveloped capabilities are ready for widespread use. Tesla should address past problems, ensure their automation set can detect(检测) emergency vehicles, and be transparent with the public about the limitations of their technology. 12. What can we learn about Tesla’s driver-assistance-related crashes? A. 736 fatal cases of self-driving are recorded. B. NHTSA focused on the crashes on highways. C. The total number of car crashes is extremely small. D. The incidents avoided are not counted in the crash statistics. 13. What can be inferred about Tesla’s safety claims? A. They are supported by comprehensive data. B. They are based on limited driving environment. C. They are restricted to the experiences of satisfied customers. D. They have been proven to be accurate and reliable by NHTSA． 14. What can we know about Full Self-Driving? A. It is ill-received. B. It is well-developed. C. It needs the driver to stay focused. D. It reduces the accidents greatly. 15. Which title best summarizes the content of this text? A. Concerns and Questions Surrounding Tesla’s “Self-Driving” Cars B. Tesla’s Self-Driving Cars: The Safest Option of Driving on the Road C. The Future of Self-Driving Cars: A Closer Look at Tesla’s Technology D. Reconstruction and Revolution of Tesla’s Autopilot and Full Self-Driving 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了围绕特斯拉“自动驾驶”汽车的担忧和质疑。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“However, these statistics can’t record incidents that were avoided due to the cars’ safety features. (然而，这些统计数据并不能记录由于汽车的安全特性而避免的事故。)”可知，避免的事故没有被计入撞车统计。故选D项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Tesla’s safety claims lack context as Autopilot is primarily designed for highways, while most accidents occur in more complex environments with cross-traffic, pedestrians, and cyclists. (特斯拉的安全声明缺乏背景，因为自动驾驶仪主要是为高速公路设计的，而大多数事故发生在更复杂的环境中，有交叉交通、行人和骑自行车的人。)”可知，特斯拉的安全声明是基于有限的驾驶环境的。故选B项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“Full Self-Driving does not allow the car to fully drive itself, and drivers are expected to remain attentive and ready to intervene at all times. (全自动驾驶不允许汽车完全自动驾驶，司机需要保持注意力，随时准备干预。)”可知，全自动驾驶需要司机保持专注。故选C项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中“Tesla’s self-driving cars have recently come under investigation as a report on crashes raises questions about their safety. (特斯拉的自动驾驶汽车最近受到调查，因为一份关于车祸的报告引发了对其安全性的质疑。)”可知，本文主要讲述了围绕特斯拉“自动驾驶”汽车的担忧和质疑。故选A项。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文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。 Major Snow, the 21st solar term of the year, begins this year on Dec 7 and ends on Dec 20, marking the start of the season.

The map, yellowed with age, described a mysterious island that had the legendary(传说的) Silver Falcon, a statue that was said to award its finder enormous wisdom and fortune. As typical eighth graders with the excitement of discovery and dreams of greatness, they decided they would be the ones to discover this hidden treasure. They agreed to start this search during the up-and-coming spring break, keeping their plans a secret from the adults who would undoubtedly discourage such a dangerous adventure. The days that followed were filled with preparation. They read books on survival, learned about the stars for navigation, and tested their courage in smaller woods. The boys were united by their unshakable resolve and the promise of an adventure that could change their lives forever. As spring break began, they set out just as the sun painted the sky with colors of orange and gold. They felt a mixture of excitement and slight nervousness. They carried backpacks filled with supplies and the ancient map that they hoped would lead them to glory. The beginning of their journey was full of laughter and songs around the campfire, but as days passed, the trip's reality set in. The path grew more dangerous, and the maps guided them through thick woods and muddy wetlands. They learned to work together as their friendship was tested by constant challenges. Slowly, the island drew nearer. A conflict arose when they reached the foot of Mount Veritas, the final barrier before reaching the island. Lucas twisted his ankle, and the slightest movement sent sharp pains shooting through his leg. With time running out, Jack and Simon had to make a choice: should they push on and risk Lucas’ well-being or turn back after coming so far? 注意: 1.续写词数应为150左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 At crossroads, Jack and Simon exchanged knowing glances. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When reaching the Silver Falcon, the three boys found no fortune there at all. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 At crossroads, Jack and Simon exchanged knowing glances. They realized they couldn’t leave Lucas behind and that the statue could wait, but their friendship could not. With great determination and strengthened bonds, they constructed a makeshift stretcher and carried Lucas through the last leg of their journey. As they reached the top of the last hill, the island revealed itself in all its glory. It was more impressive than they could have ever imagined. The Silver Falcon stood in the center, its wings shining in the sunlight. When reaching the Silver Falcon, the three boys found no fortune there at all. At that time, they realized the true treasure of their journey. It wasn't about the wisdom or fortune the Silver Falcon could bring—it was about the memories they had created together and the lessons they learned along the way. In an unexpected turn, the Silver Falcon seemed to acknowledge their growth. As they stood before it, its eyes shone brightly, and the forest around them came alive with the songs of birds and rustling leaves. A soft voice filled the clearing, congratulating them on their bravery and unity. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了在格林菲尔德镇，杰克、西蒙和卢卡斯这三个爱冒险的人在杰克祖父的房子里发现了一张古老的地图。于是他们在春假的时候前往地图上的岛屿进行冒险，在上岛的过程中卢卡斯扭伤了脚踝，杰克和西蒙不得不做出选择，最后他们扛着卢卡斯走完最后一段旅程，也经受住了友谊的考验。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“在十字路口，杰克和西蒙交换了会意的目光”可知，第一段可描写杰克和西蒙选择带着卢卡斯走完最后一段旅程。 ②由第二段首句内容“当他们到达‘银隼’号时，三个男孩没有发现任何财富”可知，第二段可描写男孩意识到真正的财富是什么以及感悟。 2.续写线索：决定带上卢卡斯——到达山顶——意识到旅行的真正价值——认可成长——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①到达：reach/arrive at ②建造：construct/build ③认可：acknowledge/recognize 情绪类 ①勇敢：bravery /courage ②意外：unexpected/ surprising 【点睛】[高分句型1] As they reached the top of the last hill, the island revealed itself in all its glory.
