D考查made a decision to do sth. 的用法，意为 “决定做某事”，是固定搭配。句意：在 20 世纪 50 年代，中国决定研发核潜艇。根据 decide to do sth. 的结构，这里要用 to develop。 4.B考查连词的用法。when 表示 “当…… 时候”；because 表示 “因为”；unless 表示 “除非”；if 表示 “如果”。句意：这非常困难，因为没有先进的技术和足够的材料。后一句 “没有先进的技术和足够的材料” 是 “这非常困难” 的原因，所以用 because 引导原因状语从句。 5. C 考查stop doing sth. 与 stop to do sth. 的区别。stop doing sth. 表示 “停止正在做的事情”；stop to do sth. 表示 “停下来去做另一件事”。句意：他们甚至停止和家人交谈。这里指为了保密项目，他们停止和家人交谈，所以用 stop talking。 6. A考查“keep + 宾语 + 形容词” 结构，意为 “使…… 保持某种状态”。safe 是形容词 “安全的”；safety 是名词 “安全”；safely 是副词 “安全地”；safer 是 safe 的比较级。句意：使这个项目安全。 根据 keep + 宾语 + 形容词结构，这里用形容词 safe。 7. C考查介词的用法。for + 一段时间，表示动作或状态持续的时间长度；on 用于具体某一天；in 用于年、月、季节等；at 用于具体时刻。句意：黄离开家乡，很长时间没有回去。a long time 是一段时间，所以用 for。 8. D考查few, little, much, many 的用法。few 修饰可数名词复数，表否定 “几乎没有”；little 修饰不可数名词，表否定 “几乎没有”；much 修饰不可数名词，“许多”；many 修饰可数名词复数，“许多”。 句意：这个团队面临许多问题。problems 是可数名词复数，这里表示 “许多问题”，所以用 many。 9.C考查连词的用法。and 表并列 “和”；but 表转折 “但是”；so 表结果 “所以”；or 表选择 “或者”。句意：他们不能向外国专家求助，所以他们使用像算盘和尺子这样简单的工具。前后句是因果关系，前因后果，所以用 so。 10. D 考查thousand 的用法。thousand 前有具体数字时，用单数形式，如 two thousand；thousands of 表示 “成千上万的”。D 句意：他们做了成千上万次实验。这里没有具体数字，所以用 thousands of。 11. B考查other, another, others, the other 的用法。other 后接名词复数，泛指 “其他的”；another 表示 “三者或三者以上中的另一个”；others 相当于 “other + 名词复数”，泛指 “其他的人或物”；the other 表示 “两者中的另一个”。句意：另一个巨大的挑战是使潜艇在水下保持稳定。 这里表示众多挑战中的 “另一个”，所以用 another。 12.D 考查被动语态的用法。句意：20世纪70年代，中国第一艘核潜艇成功建造并进行了测试！这里主语是动作的承受着，故要用被动语态。 13. D考查形容词最高级的用法。形容词最高级前一般要加 the。high 是原级 “高的”；higher 是比较级 “更高的”；highest 是最高级 “最高的”。句意：他继续改进潜艇设计，并在 2019 年获得了最高荣誉 ——“共和国勋章”。“共和国勋章” 是最高荣誉，所以用最高级 the highest。 14.A考查情态动词的用法。should 表示 “应该”，表建议；can 表示 “能，会”；must 表示 “必须”，语气较强；need 表示 “需要”。句意：年轻人应该学习这种精神。这里是一种建议，所以用 should。 15.C考查副词用法。句意：我们年轻人应该肩负这种责任，勇敢面对挑战。这里用副词修饰动词并且没有比较的意思，不用比较级，故答案选C。 二、完形填空（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从16〜25各题所给的A、B、C和D项中选 出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 In a busy international business (商务) meeting, a group of businessmen from different countries came together to discuss possible working partnership.

After the success of DeepSeek, Manus has made a big splash in the tech world. Monica.im made Manus. It's not just an ordinary chatbot. It's like a "digital worker" that can plan and finish tasks by itself. For example, if you ask it to make a travel guide for Xinjiang, Manus will look for routes on its own, book hotels, and make a detailed PDF with maps and weather tips. DeepSeek is good at solving math problems or writing code, like a "super brain". But Manus is different. It focuses on taking action. It uses things like web browsers and programming software to give you the final results.​ Manus is special because it can think, plan, and act just like a human team. It can break hard tasks into small steps. It can build websites, design 3D animations, or look at stock data（股票数据）. There was a popular demo. Manus made a sci-fi movie scene with planets moving and also made a website about AI history. The website had timelines and filters. People like how useful it is. It can sort job resumes or find cheap housing in New York.​ Manus is working with Alibaba's Qwen model to get better. By using Qwen's open-source technology, Manus can do tasks like looking at medical reports and making educational content better. This teamwork wants to make Manus better for Chinese users and help AI "smart agents" be used more in real life. Even though it's still being tested, more than 2 million people are on the waiting list. This shows that a lot of people around the world are interested.​ Manus means a change from AI that just thinks to AI that takes action. Experts say it closes the gap between ideas and what actually gets done. It makes AI useful in our daily life and in industries like healthcare and education. The U.S. is ahead in AI research, but China is really good at making new ideas into useful tools. Manus, like DeepSeek, shows this. But there are still problems. It needs to be more accurate and cost less. 29.What's the main function of Manus compared with DeepSeek?​ A. Solving hard math problems.​ B. Making creative writing stuff.​ C. Doing real - life tasks by itself.​ D. Giving emotional help to users.​ 30.How is Manus different from DeepSeek in a basic way?​ A. Manus uses closed - source algorithms.​ B. DeepSeek thinks a lot; Manus likes to do things.​ C. Manus always needs people to watch over it.​ D. DeepSeek can't deal with Chinese.​ 31. According to the text, which task is the least suitable for Manus? A. Making a website about AI history that has filters and a timeline. B. Booking hotels by itself for a travel plan. C. Quickly solving difficult calculus equations. D. Making 3D animation for a movie scene. 32.What does the phrase "digital worker" in the text probably mean about Manus?​ A. It can replace human workers totally.​ B. It can copy how a human team works and do tasks.​ C. It can run machines in factories.​ D. It can develop emotional intelligence.​ 【答案】CBCB 【解析】2025 年 3 月中国 AI 产品 Manus 问世，不同于 DeepSeek，它似 “数字工人” 能自主做事。现与 Qwen 合作，有不足但前景受关注。 29.C 根据文章第一段 “DeepSeek is good at solving math problems or writing code, like a ‘super brain’. But Manus is different. It focuses on taking action. It uses things like web browsers and programming software to give you the final results.” 以及第二段 “It can break hard tasks into small steps. It can build websites, design 3D animations, or look at stock data（股票数据）.” 可知，与 DeepSeek 擅长解决数学问题或编写代码不同，Manus 专注于采取行动，能自己完成诸如制定旅行指南、预订酒店、制作网站等现实生活中的任务。A 选项 “解决难的数学问题” 是 DeepSeek 的功能；B 选项 “创作创意写作内容” 文章未提及；D 选项 “给用户提供情感帮助” 文章也未提到。所以 Manus 与 DeepSeek 相比，主要功能是自己完成现实生活中的任务，答案选 C。 30. B从文章第一段 “DeepSeek is good at solving math problems or writing code, like a ‘super brain’. But Manus is different. It focuses on taking action.” 可知，DeepSeek 擅长解决数学问题或编写代码，就像一个 “超级大脑”，更倾向于思考方面；而 Manus 专注于采取行动。A 选项 “Manus 使用闭源算法” 文章未提及，且提到 Manus 使用了 Qwen 的开源技术；C 选项 “Manus 总是需要人来监督它” 文章未提及；D 选项 “DeepSeek 不能处理中文” 文章没有相关内容。所以从基本方面来说，DeepSeek 思考得多，Manus 喜欢做事，答案选 B。 31. C文章中提到 “DeepSeek is good at solving math problems or writing code, like a ‘super brain’.”，说明擅长快速解决困难的微积分方程的是 DeepSeek，而不是 Manus。A 选项 “制作一个有筛选功能和时间轴的关于人工智能历史的网站”，文章第二段提到 “Manus made a sci-fi movie scene with planets moving and also made a website about AI history. The website had timelines and filters.”，Manus 可以做到；B 选项 “为旅行计划自己预订酒店”，第一段举例 “If you ask it to make a travel guide for Xinjiang, Manus will look for routes on its own, book hotels...”，Manus 能完成；D 选项 “为电影场景制作 3D 动画”，第二段提到 “It can build websites, design 3D animations...”，Manus 也可以做。所以最不适合 Manus 的任务是快速解决困难的微积分方程，答案选 C。 32.B根据文章第一段 “It's not just an ordinary chatbot. It's like a ‘digital worker’ that can plan and finish tasks by itself. For example, if you ask it to make a travel guide for Xinjiang, Manus will look for routes on its own, book hotels, and make a detailed PDF with maps and weather tips.” 以及第二段 “Manus is special because it can think, plan, and act just like a human team.” 可知，Manus 这个 “数字工人” 可以像人类团队一样思考、计划和行动，自己完成任务。A 选项 “它可以完全取代人类工人” 过于绝对；C 选项 “它可以在工厂运行机器” 文章未提及；D 选项 “它可以发展情商” 文章也没有相关内容。所以 “数字工人” 的意思是它可以模仿人类团队的工作方式并完成任务，答案选 B。 C Once upon a time, in a deep forest lived a hard-working and kind-hearted squirrel named Sammy. Sammy was known for his kind and helpful nature. He was always ready to give a hand to anyone in need. One sunny morning, Sammy was busy collecting nuts for the winter. Suddenly, he heard a strange noise coming from a nearby bush. Hoping to find out what was happening, he got near the bush and looked inside. There, he found a little bird with a broken wing, struggling to fly. Sammy felt sorry for the bird and quickly chose to help. He carefully carried the bird back to his comfortable tree hole and tried to cure its wing with leaves and soft grass. Day after day, Sammy gave the bird food and cared for it until its wing got better. As the weeks passed, the bird’s wing grew stronger, and it was finally able to fly again. The bird thanked Sammy cheerfully and promised to help him in return whenever he needed it. Not long after, a terrible storm attacked the forest, and Sammy’s tree hole was blocked by fallen branches. Sammy was caught and he didn’t know what to do. Just then, the bird flew by and saw Sammy’s predicament. It quickly flew to the nearby animals and asked for help. It took the animals quite a long time to, together, clear the branches and free Sammy from the hole. Sammy felt so thankful and found that his kindness had come back to him in the most surprising way. From that day on, Sammy has continued to help others, and the forest animals have learned the value of kindness and helping each other. They live happily, knowing that together, they can overcome any challenge. 33. What was Sammy famous for in the forest? A. His ability to collect nuts. B. His skill of making tree holes. C.

These changes happened because AI tools were used.  By using AI to create personalized (个性化的) exercises and exams, teachers at the school can adjust their teaching methods to suit each student’s needs and abilities. After students finish studying a unit, teachers use AI to pick different questions from an online database (数据库) that includes various extracurricular (课外的) materials. This helps create a customized (定制的) set of exercises for the unit, helping students strengthen their knowledge. These exercises are then printed on paper. “With this special learning material created by AI, we don’t need to carry all the heavy exercise books any more,” said the 14-year-old He Liyan. Students answer the exercise questions on answer sheets. Teachers collect these sheets, scan (扫描) them into an AI system for grading. The AI creates numbers and graphics (图形) that help teachers understand each student’s performance as well as how the whole class is doing overall. “Our teacher no longer explains all the questions one by one. Instead, she looks at the common mistakes and provides one-on-one help for every one of us,” said the 15-year-old Wang Dinghan. What’s more, students can get special error log (错题日志) or homework created by AI depending on their performance in previous (之前的) exams.   “The homework is all about what I got wrong before, so I don’t need to practice over and over again what I already understand,” said He. “I used to have a notebook copying my mistakes so that I can study them,” said Yu Zifu, 15. “But now, AI has done this for me!” 37. What is the main purpose of using AI in the school, according to the text? A. To make teaching more enjoyable for teachers. B. To make students’ exercise books lighter. C. To improve learning with personalized education. D. To reduce the amount of homework for students. 38. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A. What challenges teachers met when using AI. B. Why teachers built an online database for students. C. How AI helps teachers create customized exercises for students. D. How teachers organized after-class activities with AI. 39. According to the text, what benefit do students like Wang Dinghan find in the AI-assisted system? A. Teachers explain questions more carefully. B. Teachers offer one-on-one help to students. C. Students can practice as many times as they need. D. Students can copy their mistakes more clearly. 40. What is the main message of the passage? A. AI creates a learning trend. B. AI frees students from homework. C. AI helps students learn better. D. AI changes the teacher-student relationship. 【答案】CCBC 【解析】文章大意：江苏扬州北京新东方外国语学校本学期用AI，为师生带来变化，助教学与学习个性化。 37.C 根据文章 “By using AI to create personalized (个性化的) exercises and exams, teachers at the school can adjust their teaching methods to suit each student’s needs and abilities.” 可知，学校使用人工智能的主要目的是通过个性化教育来提高学习效果。所以选 C。 38.

The round shape often brings us the idea of things in nature, like the Sun, flowers, raindrops and so on. 42 All these things make us feel happy and warm. This is why so many cartoon characters bodies — heroes, kids, good people — are round in shape, because circles mean goodness, happiness and friendliness. Squares show something man-made or old-fashioned. In the cartoon called Up (飞屋环游记), Carl, an elderly man, has a square face and wears square glasses, while Russell, an 8-year-old boy with a round face, always wears round medals. 43 Carl is stubborn (执拗的) and lonely while Russell is cute and full of energy. The angriest shape is the triangle. Look at the bad guys in cartoons. 44 Because triangles don’t easily fall down, characters designed in this way are usually difficult to deal with. 45 So, next time you see a film, pay attention to the shapes and you will know what the characters are like.

We can also connect circles with beautiful eyes and babies’ round faces. E. In fact, in other kinds of films, different shapes are used for the same purpose. 【答案】41. B 42. D 43. A 44. C 45. E 【解析】本文主要介绍了常见的三个形状与卡通人物性格的关系。 41. 根据下文“Much like colors, different shapes can tell us something about the characters.”，可知这是在说“形状”就像颜色一样，不同的形状可以告诉我们一些关于人物的事情，可推知空处应与“形状的意义”有关，选项B“但是你想过它们在漫画中的意义吗?”，符合语境。故选B。 42. 根据上文“The round shape often brings us the idea of things in nature, like the Sun, flowers, raindrops and so on.”，可知这是在举例说明“圆形”能给我们带来何种自然界事物的概念，可推知空处与“圆形”有关，选项D“我们还可以将圆圈与美丽的眼睛和婴儿的圆脸联系起来。”，符合语境。故选D。 43. 根据上文“…Carl, an elderly man, has a square face and wears square glasses, while Russell, an 8-year-old boy with a round face, always wears round medals”和下文“Carl is stubborn (执拗的) and lonely while Russell is cute and full of energy.”，可知这是用《飞屋环游记》中的“方脸爷爷”和“圆脸小男孩”的人物形象说明“不同的形状有不同的人物性格含义”，选项A“这些形状显示了人物之间的差异。”，符合语境。故选A。 44. 根据上文“Look at the bad guys in cartoons.”，可知空处应与“卡通片里的坏人”有关，选项C“他们都被画了很多点，就像《哪吒》里的申公豹。”，符合语境。故选C。 45. 根据下文“So, next time you see a film, pay attention to the shapes and you will know what the characters are like.”，可知这是在说看电影的时候，注意一下形状，你就会知道里面的人物是什么样的了，选项E“事实上，在其他类型的电影中，不同的形状被用于相同的目的。”，符合语境。故选E。 四、写作 (共三节，满分30分) 第一节 语篇填词 (共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分) 阅读短文，根据上下文和所给的首字母写出所缺单词。注意使用正确形式，每空限填一词。答卷时，要求写出完整单词。 One evening, it was raining heavily outside.

After the success of DeepSeek, Manus has made a big splash in the tech world. Monica.im made Manus. It's not just an ordinary chatbot. It's like a "digital worker" that can plan and finish tasks by itself. For example, if you ask it to make a travel guide for Xinjiang, Manus will look for routes on its own, book hotels, and make a detailed PDF with maps and weather tips. DeepSeek is good at solving math problems or writing code, like a "super brain". But Manus is different. It focuses on taking action. It uses things like web browsers and programming software to give you the final results.​ Manus is special because it can think, plan, and act just like a human team. It can break hard tasks into small steps. It can build websites, design 3D animations, or look at stock data（股票数据）. There was a popular demo. Manus made a sci-fi movie scene with planets moving and also made a website about AI history. The website had timelines and filters. People like how useful it is.

This teamwork wants to make Manus better for Chinese users and help AI "smart agents" be used more in real life. Even though it's still being tested, more than 2 million people are on the waiting list. This shows that a lot of people around the world are interested.​ Manus means a change from AI that just thinks to AI that takes action. Experts say it closes the gap between ideas and what actually gets done. It makes AI useful in our daily life and in industries like healthcare and education. The U.S. is ahead in AI research, but China is really good at making new ideas into useful tools. Manus, like DeepSeek, shows this. But there are still problems.

He was always ready to give a hand to anyone in need. One sunny morning, Sammy was busy collecting nuts for the winter. Suddenly, he heard a strange noise coming from a nearby bush. Hoping to find out what was happening, he got near the bush and looked inside. There, he found a little bird with a broken wing, struggling to fly. Sammy felt sorry for the bird and quickly chose to help. He carefully carried the bird back to his comfortable tree hole and tried to cure its wing with leaves and soft grass. Day after day, Sammy gave the bird food and cared for it until its wing got better. As the weeks passed, the bird’s wing grew stronger, and it was finally able to fly again. The bird thanked Sammy cheerfully and promised to help him in return whenever he needed it. Not long after, a terrible storm attacked the forest, and Sammy’s tree hole was blocked by fallen branches. Sammy was caught and he didn’t know what to do. Just then, the bird flew by and saw Sammy’s predicament. It quickly flew to the nearby animals and asked for help. It took the animals quite a long time to, together, clear the branches and free Sammy from the hole. Sammy felt so thankful and found that his kindness had come back to him in the most surprising way. From that day on, Sammy has continued to help others, and the forest animals have learned the value of kindness and helping each other. They live happily, knowing that together, they can overcome any challenge. 33. What was Sammy famous for in the forest? A. His ability to collect nuts. B. His skill of making tree holes. C.

These changes happened because AI tools were used.  By using AI to create personalized (个性化的) exercises and exams, teachers at the school can adjust their teaching methods to suit each student’s needs and abilities. After students finish studying a unit, teachers use AI to pick different questions from an online database (数据库) that includes various extracurricular (课外的) materials. This helps create a customized (定制的) set of exercises for the unit, helping students strengthen their knowledge. These exercises are then printed on paper. “With this special learning material created by AI, we don’t need to carry all the heavy exercise books any more,” said the 14-year-old He Liyan. Students answer the exercise questions on answer sheets. Teachers collect these sheets, scan (扫描) them into an AI system for grading. The AI creates numbers and graphics (图形) that help teachers understand each student’s performance as well as how the whole class is doing overall. “Our teacher no longer explains all the questions one by one. Instead, she looks at the common mistakes and provides one-on-one help for every one of us,” said the 15-year-old Wang Dinghan. What’s more, students can get special error log (错题日志) or homework created by AI depending on their performance in previous (之前的) exams.   “The homework is all about what I got wrong before, so I don’t need to practice over and over again what I already understand,” said He. “I used to have a notebook copying my mistakes so that I can study them,” said Yu Zifu, 15. “But now, AI has done this for me!” 37. What is the main purpose of using AI in the school, according to the text? A. To make teaching more enjoyable for teachers. B. To make students’ exercise books lighter. C. To improve learning with personalized education. D. To reduce the amount of homework for students. 38. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A. What challenges teachers met when using AI. B. Why teachers built an online database for students. C. How AI helps teachers create customized exercises for students. D. How teachers organized after-class activities with AI. 39. According to the text, what benefit do students like Wang Dinghan find in the AI-assisted system? A. Teachers explain questions more carefully. B. Teachers offer one-on-one help to students. C. Students can practice as many times as they need. D. Students can copy their mistakes more clearly. 40. What is the main message of the passage? A. AI creates a learning trend. B. AI frees students from homework. C. AI helps students learn better. D. AI changes the teacher-student relationship. 第二节 阅读填空 (共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分) 阅读短文及文后A~E选项，选出可以填入41~45各题空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 We can see circles, squares and triangles (三角形) everywhere in our daily life. 41 Much like colors, different shapes can tell us something about the characters. The round shape often brings us the idea of things in nature, like the Sun, flowers, raindrops and so on. 42 All these things make us feel happy and warm. This is why so many cartoon characters bodies — heroes, kids, good people — are round in shape, because circles mean goodness, happiness and friendliness. Squares show something man-made or old-fashioned. In the cartoon called Up (飞屋环游记), Carl, an elderly man, has a square face and wears square glasses, while Russell, an 8-year-old boy with a round face, always wears round medals. 43 Carl is stubborn (执拗的) and lonely while Russell is cute and full of energy. The angriest shape is the triangle. Look at the bad guys in cartoons. 44 Because triangles don’t easily fall down, characters designed in this way are usually difficult to deal with. 45 So, next time you see a film, pay attention to the shapes and you will know what the characters are like. A. These shapes show differences between the characters. B. But have you thought about their meanings in cartoons? C. They are all drawn with plenty of points, like Shen Gongbao in Ne Zha. D. We can also connect circles with beautiful eyes and babies’ round faces. E. In fact, in other kinds of films, different shapes are used for the same purpose. 四、写作 (共三节，满分30分) 第一节 语篇填词 (共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分) 阅读短文，根据上下文和所给的首字母写出所缺单词。注意使用正确形式，每空限填一词。答卷时，要求写出完整单词。 One evening, it was raining heavily outside.
