The new study reveals that sentences that are more complex, because of either unusual grammar or unexpected meaning, generate stronger responses in these language processing centers. Sentences that are very straightforward barely engage these regions, and meaningless orders of words don’t do much for them either. In this study, the researchers focused on language-processing regions found in the left hemisphere (半球) of the brain. By collecting a set of 1,000 sentences from various sources, the researchers measured the brain activity of participants using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) while they read the sentences. The same sentences were also fed into a large language model, similar to ChatGPT, to measure the model’s activation patterns. Once the researchers had all of those data, they trained the model to predict how the human language network would respond to any new sentence based on how the artificial language network responded to these 1,000 sentences. The researchers then used the model to determine 500 new sentences that would drive highest brain activity and sentences that would make the brain less active, and their findings were confirmed in subsequent human participants. To understand why certain sentences generate stronger brain responses, the model examined the sentences based on 11 different language characteristics. The analysis revealed that sentences that were more surprising resulted in greater brain activity. Another linguistic (语言的) aspect that correlated with the brain’s language network responses was the complexity of the sentences, which was determined by how well they followed English grammar rules and bow logically they linked with each other. The researchers now plan to see if they can extend these findings in speakers of languages other than English. They also hope to explore what type of stimuli may activate language processing regions in the brain’s right hemisphere. 1．What sentences make our brain work harder? A．Lengthy. B．Logical. C．Straightforward. D．Complicated. 2．What is the function of the AL model in the research? A．To examine language network. B．To reduce language complexity. C．To locate language processing area. D．To identify language characteristics. 3．How did the researchers carry out their study? A．By conducting interviews. B．By collecting questionnaires. C．By analyzing experiment data. D．By reviewing previous studies. 4．Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A．AL Model Stimulates Brain Activities B．AL Model Speeds Up Language Learning C．AL Model Reveals the Secrets of Brain Activation D．AL Model Enhances Brain Processing Capacity （二） （2025届河南省五市高三下学期一模）“Where can I find your disability section?” This was the question that baffled Waterstones staff when asked by Dr Hannah Barham Brown. It should have been a pretty straightforward answer. Hannah was looking for the part of the shop where non-fiction books about disability and by disabled authors were kept, but the question drew a blank. This is because most bookshops don’t have a specific place for non-fiction disabled books. Where there are sections for non-fiction books on important sections of identity such as race, gender and social studies, disability has been forgotten about again. Hannah took to social media to share her disappointment and it resonated(共鸣)with much of the disabled community. After being asked by one Waterstones staff member if she could fill a shelf, she sourced a long list that could take up a whole bookcase. And there is a huge number of them to choose from. There are also some incredible new and upcoming books by disabled voices. And hopefully, in the coming years, my own memoir book will also sit alongside them. From my own experience, the book-writing world is a hard space to access as a disabled woman. We’re constantly told there isn’t a market for our books or cheated off by agents and publishers who say they already have something similar—when often the only similarity is that we’re disabled women. Not having our own section feeds these problems. The response I’ve had to this campaign shows that the demand for these books is there. Growing up I would get swept up in stories of regular girls having adventures—but as someone treated with multiple conditions from the age of nine onwards, I very rarely saw myself in the pages I was pouring over. Growing up I never saw myself in books and it was one of the reasons I struggled to accept my disabilities. Hopefully disabled kids will grow up learning they’re fine just as they are. 5．What does the underlined word “baffled” in paragraph 1 probably mean? A．Amused. B．Moved. C．Confused. D．Angered. 6．What is the problem with books for the disabled in the bookstore? A．Few of them are published. B．No special areas are for them. C．The latest ones are in short supply. D．They are seen as non-fiction books. 7．What can be inferred about the author? A．She is a writer. B．She is a teacher. C．She is a historian. D．She is a librarian. 8．What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A．To donate books to the disabled. B．To promote books from the disabled. C．To support education for the disabled. D．To address reading needs for the disabled. （三） （2025届河南省五市高三下学期一模）What if everything happens for a reason? Burnt toast theory, a modern view on this classic idea, suggests that every little inconvenience we experience in our day-to-day lives happens for a bigger reason. Imagine you accidentally burn your toast before leaving for work. According to burnt toast theory, this tiny inconvenience can cause a domino effect (多米诺效应). Your morning gets delayed by three to five minutes—just enough time to leave the house later than usual and avoid a potential car accident. Or perhaps you catch a later train, missing an awkward encounter with someone you don’t intend to see. You might even meet someone new whom you wouldn’t have otherwise met, leading to a friendship or romantic connection. When we feel like things are outside our control, that can be scary. The burnt toast theory can help some people let go of their need for control and take negative situations more positively. However, while maintaining a positive mindset can be beneficial, over-optimism can lead to “poisonous positivity”. When we only allow ourselves to focus on positive thoughts, we are denying ourselves the chance to properly deal with challenges and difficult situations to better ourselves, focusing on creating a false positive façade (假象) instead. By constantly avoiding negative experiences, we might ignore their real impact on us and fail to acknowledge when we’re struggling. It can make us feel worse about ourselves, and may lead to pushing down negative feelings or experiences, and refusing to acknowledge or deal with them fully. Instead of focusing purely on positive thinking, working towards developing a growth mindset may be more helpful. You don’t always have to look for life’s silver linings, or even the meaning behind a little burnt toast. Sometimes things happen, and they suck. But as long as we take time to acknowledge how these things make us feel, and recognize that we can’t always control everything around us, we can still work towards improving ourselves, and how we handle life’s unexpected challenges—and that’s what really matters. 9．What can be inferred from the burnt toast theory? A．Life is a process, not destination. B．Lost in the east, gained in the west. C．Life is full of endless challenges. D．Lost time will never be found again. 10．Which can be an outcome from “poisonous positivity”? A．Loss of chances to grow. B．Failure to acknowledge others. C．Inability to control emotions. D．Decline in physical health. 11．Which can be seen as a growth mindset mentioned in the last paragraph? A．Finding reasons for failure. B．Avoiding pushing others too hard. C．Accepting life and making it better. D．Keeping a positive mindset and working hard. 12．Which is the best possible title for the text? A．Bum Toast Theory: Find a True Self B．Bum Toast Theory: Lead a Positive Life C．Burn Toast Theory: More than Positivity D．Burn Toast Theory: How to Live Actively （四） （2025届河南省名校联盟高三一模）I talked with a friend recently who is overwhelmed by her workload. She asked me what tips I might have for her around time management. That question surprised me. I’ve never thought of myself as someone with great time management skills, mostly because I tend to avoid rigid productivity systems, believing that they limit creativity. It wasn’t until we parted that it hit me. I don’t focus on time management, but on energy management. Somewhere along the way, I learned that the time something takes is secondary to energy. I would argue that you could work six hours on a task that gives you energy and feel fresh and ready for what’s next. Or, you could spend three hours on a tiring and unfulfilling task and need to check out for the rest of the day. I’m a fan of making lists and getting things crossed off the list. But maturity has taught me that satisfaction comes not from crossing things off the list, but intentionality about what goes on the list. If everything on the list is an energy waste, how will it feel to get those things done? Russ Hudson, a teacher, said something recently that blew the doors open for me on this concept. He spoke about the energy of frustration (懊恼), but it could be applied to any negative emotion. He said that frustration is an addictive emotion because it causes us to be stressed. Hudson said, “Life force gets trapped in frustration.” So that extensive energy I spend being frustrated is trapping life force energy that might go to more useful, productive, creative pursuits. In a world that often focuses on getting the most out of every hour, it’s about time we should change our focus. We should pay attention to how our energy changes throughout the day, and learn how to create, use, and save it. It’s not hard to start thinking this way. We just need to be more aware of ourselves and make careful choices. 13．Why is the author’s friend mentioned in paragraph 1? A．To lead in the topic. B．To clarify a definition. C．To present a common phenomenon. D．To share a personal experience. 14．What is the author’s core argument about productivity? A．Completing tasks quickly guarantees satisfaction. B．Making task lists lays the foundation for achievements. C．Energy management matters more than time management. D．Strict time management systems are essential for success. 15．According to Russ Hudson, why is frustration problematic? A．It wastes time that could be used for work. B．It makes people ignorant of their limitations. C．It leaves people trapped in their comfort zone. D．It stops people pursuing something meaningful in life. 16．What might be talked about following the last paragraph? A．Ways to reduce negative emotions in work. B．The relationship between energy and creativity. C．The disadvantages of focusing on time management. D．Examples of managing energy through awareness and choices. （五） （2025届河南省创新发展联盟高三下学期一模）I was staying on the island of Kos and the friend I have there wanted to show me a nice beach on the island of Telendos. To visit Telendos, we had to take the boat to Kalymnos, drive through the island to the other side and take the boat to Telendos from there. This short drive through Kalymnos was enough for me to appreciate the island’s beauty. Kalymnos is world-famous for its sponge (海绵) divers, so I wanted to meet at least one. I had been told that they were supposed to be difficult-to-reach people. In fact, my experience was out of kilter with this widely-held view. Five minutes after I arrived, I met Antonis, who was selling his sponges on his boat by the harbour. Through a brief exchange, I learned he used to be a sponge diver, but now he has retired. I asked him whether he had a warehouse (货仓) where we could go together. He was surprised and told me that there was not much to see or photograph in his warehouse. He gave me directions to more modern ones. When people say things like that to me, I know that this is the place I will probably be photographing. However, I took the time to go and see the modern warehouses, which I didn’t care for too much, photographically speaking. Just by chance, I saw Antonis wandering around. I asked him again if we could go to his warehouse. It was not far away, so he agreed. As I had expected, his warehouse was a feast for my eyes. It was just what I had in my mind. I wasted no time and asked to take his photo. As I traversed the island, the sight of traditionally clothed women got positive reactions, even from locals not accustomed to such dresses. A voluntary visit to an elderly villager’s home, warmly welcomed, added a close touch to my cultural journey. 17．What does the underlined part “was out of kilter with” mean in paragraph 2? A．Was contrary to. B．Cast light on. C．Was consistent with. D．Had something to do with. 18．How did Antonis react to the author’s request to visit his warehouse at first? A．Excitedly. B．Unwillingly. C．Impatiently. D．Anxiously. 19．Why did the author show little interest in modern warehouses? A．They were not easy to reach. B．He didn’t find them well-equipped. C．They were not appealing for photography. D．He didn’t trust what Antonis had recommended. 20．What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A．To display the natural beauty on Kalymnos. B．To show the daily life of the locals on Kalymnos. C．To share his personal travel experience on Kalymnos. D．To introduce the unique profession of sponge divers on Kalymnos. （六） （2025届山西省高三下学期一模一模）A supermarket in Manchester, UK, has introduced a “quiet hour” to assist autistic (患自闭症的) customers. The ASDA branch in Cheetham Hill, led by manager Simon Lea, has created a special time during which the store becomes much quieter and calmer. During this hour, escalators (手扶电梯) are stopped, in-store music and televisions are turned off, and the usual crowd and noise of the store are minimized. This initiative aims to help people who are sensitive to noise and may find the typical shopping experience intense, especially those with autism. The idea for this project was brought out when Simon witnessed a young boy having lost control of emotions in the store. The boy, who was with his mother, became upset by the loud noises around him. Simon, who saw the boy’s mother looking terribly tired, offered the child a football to calm him down. When the boy started playing with the ball, his mood immediately improved. This moment inspired Simon to think about how the store could better support customers with autism and other sense-related issues. Simon’s goal is to create a more welcoming environment for everyone. He believes that the quiet hour will benefit not only people with autism but also those who suffer from anxiety or other mental health conditions, as he himself has struggled with anxiety in the past. The store also provides a special map for autistic customers, with pictures instead of words, to make it easier to get around. Tom Madders, Head of Campaigns at the National Autistic Society said, “We are very pleased to hear that ASDA are introducing a ‘quiet-hour’ in its Manchester store. This initiative is a great example of an organization taking the trouble to understand how autistic people experience the world and we hope other businesses are inspired to follow their example. ” 21．Why is the “quiet hour” introduced at ASDA? A．To improve the store’s efficiency. B．To attract more customers to the store. C．To help people who are sensitive to noise. D．To offer discounts for special-needs customers. 22．What inspired Simon Lea to launch the initiative? A．His observation of a child with autism struggling. B．His personal experience with dealing with anxiety. C．Complaints from customers about excessive noise. D．Suggestions from a mother of a child with autism. 23．What is Simon Lea’s belief about the “quiet hour”? A．It will primarily benefit people with children. B．It will be successful in attracting new customers. C．It will make the store more efficient and organized. D．It will help those with autism and mental health issues. 24．What is Tom Madders’s reaction to ASDA’s changes? A．Appreciative. B．Doubtful. C．Critical. D．Concerned. （七） （2025届山西省高三下学期一模一模）Research reveals that not only brain cells, but also cells from other body parts, can store memories. This discovery offers new insights into memory function and potential treatments for memory-related issues, according to New York University. The research aimed to explore whether non-brain cells contribute to memory by applying the massed-spaced effect — a principle suggesting that information is remembered better when learned over multiple periods rather than through intensive study in a single session. In their study, published in Nature Communications, scientists investigated two types of non-brain human cells in a laboratory setting. These cells were exposed to various chemical signals, similar to how brain cells respond to neurotransmitters (神经递质) during learning. In response, the non-brain cells activated a “memory gene”— the same gene that brain cells use for detecting patterns and restructure their connections to form memories. To monitor this process, the researchers engineered the cells to produce a fluorescent protein, allowing them to track when the memory gene was turned on or off. The results showed that these cells could detect repeated chemical signals, similar to neurotransmitter bursts in the brain, rather than extended ones. This mirrors how brain cells register learning with spaced breaks instead of learning everything all at once. When signals were spaced out, the “memory gene” was activated more strongly and for a longer time than when delivered all at once. “This reflects the massed-spaced effect,” says Kukushkin, a clinical associate professor at NYU. “It shows that repeated learning is a fundamental property of all cells.” “This discovery opens new doors for understanding how memory works and could lead to better ways to enhance learning and treat memory-related issues,” observes Kukushkin. “It also suggests that in the future, we may need to treat our body like the brain, considering how systems such as digestion or cancer cells ‘remember’ patterns to regulate blood sugar or respond to the pattern of cancer treatment. ” 25．What does the massed-spaced effect illustrate? A．The brain stores memory during deep sleep. B．Spacing learning over time improves memory. C．Memory is stored only when repeated continuously. D．Learning everything in one session reduces memory. 26．What does the underlined phrase “fluorescent protein” refer to? A．A neurotransmitter produced by brain cells. B．A type of chemical signal released by cells. C．A protein found only in brain-related research. D．A substance that indicates active memory genes. 27．What can be learned from the research in paragraph 3? A．All cells possess the basic characteristic of repeated learning. B．Cells do not respond to chemical signals during learning. C．Intensive learning is more effective than spaced learning. D．The brain only uses extended bursts of neurotransmitters. 28．What could be a suitable title for this article? A．Exploring Memory Function in the Brain. B．The Role of Non-Brain Cells in Memory Storage. C．How Brain Cells Detect Patterns during Learning. D．The Impact of Chemical Signals on Memory Formation. （八） （2025届陕西省西安市新城区西安中学一模）Elon Musk has offered a prize of $100m for the best carbon capture proposal. I can save his committee a lot of time. The money should go to Peter Wohlleben, whose book The Hidden Life of Trees was the most encouraging blockbuster of 2015. Wohlleben’s idea is this: do nothing about trees. Stop fiddling with them, thinking that we can deal with climate change better than nature. If we fiddle, our Romes will burn. The Hidden Life of Trees argued that trees are social. It shows that they can be our saviors. But it’s terribly hard to let ourselves be saved. We think we can be the authors of our salvation (拯救). Of course, there are things we could and should be doing, but in terms of forestry practice, often what’s billed as part of the solution is part of the problem. Anyone who has planted a tree in their garden knows that it has a far-reaching effect — it makes your garden cooler in summer and warmer in winter. Forests cool by transpiring (蒸发). If there’s no water, there’s no cooling. Drought can kill trees fast, but trees have many ways of dealing with it, and Wohlleben sets them out. As a species, we have survived many climatic changes by changing our behavior — and that’s how trees survive, too. Trees learn from their past harms and produce younger ones programmed with those lessons. They regulate their growth by changing the rate at which they drip (点滴)-feed them with sugar solution through root networks. Deciduous (落叶的) forests in particular remove greenhouse gases effectively as long as they live. Cut them down and burn them and you’re releasing carbon dioxide not just from the wood, but also from the forest floor. Deciduous trees are not “harvest-ready” at 200 years: they are teenagers. We must interrogate comforting expressions such as “renewable energy”, and learn the real cost of our toilet paper. If we don’t learn to do nothing about trees, they will eventually be alone anyway—but without us. Wohlleben brilliantly and readably shows us how urgent and how hard it is to do nothing. 29．What does Wohlleben suggest for carbon capture? A．Fight climate change. B．Leave trees alone. C．Save the earth. D．Change forestry species. 30．How do trees survive the drought? A．They slow their growth. B．They lose all their leaves. C．They stop absorbing water. D．They get help from humans. 31．What can we infer from the text? A．We can cope with climate change successfully. B．Trees can adjust their growth by themselves. C．It is hard to stop releasing carbon dioxide. D．It is urgent to regulate the growth of trees. 32．What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A．To illustrate the carbon capture system. B．To give an account of the survival of trees. C．To clarify a proposal for a reward. D．To recommend a book. （九） （2025届陕西省菁师联盟一模）At the end of 2015, Delhi’s air pollution was so alarming that the high court said it was like “living in a gas chamber”. To tackle the problem, inspired by policies adopted in other countries and regions, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal introduced driving restrictions on private vehicles beginning 1 January 2016: Cars with odd and even number plates would be allowed to run on alternate days. But this created a problem of transportation, to which Akshat Mittal found a solution, a website called odd-even. com. It was a neat carpooling fix for thousands of city workers—odd-numbered car owners were matched with even-numbered ones, based on timings, gender, profession and age. They could book a one-way ride or a return journey, using their cars by turns. Quite simple really, but it took a 13-year-old to figure it out. The website got over 30,000 registrations during the first phase alone. As an unusually focused teenager, Akshat doesn’t see himself as any different from other kids. His favorite subjects are mathematics and physics and he loves playing badminton. But rare at his age, the 10th grader sees himself as a “someone who identifies problems and tries to solve them by making products, using technology”. Encouraged by his father, he has been doing basic web programming. “I always wanted to learn new languages”—but it looks like computing is the language of his choice. Now 15, Akshat has come a long way. He sold his website to the ride-sharing app. Orahi in April 2016. Among the youngest entrepreneurs in the world, he is now working on a project called Change My India, a platform for change-makers to connect and solve societal problems. Akshat’s contributions have not been ignored——apart from extensive media coverage, he has been recognized by The Global Education & Leadership Foundation and invited to speak at TEDx and VCCircle. 33．Why did Akshat Mittal set up odd-even. com website? A．To discuss driving restrictions. B．To raise awareness of air pollution. C．To aid with Delhi’s vehicle registration issue. D．To address a transportation problem for city workers. 34．What’s paragraph 2 mainly about? A．Who are qualified for registration. B．Why car owners are matched randomly. C．How Akshat Mittal’s solution works. D．What is supposed to be done to book a journey. 35．Which of the following best describes Akshat? A．Emotional. B．Creative. C．Inflexible. D．Humorous. 36．What do we know about Akshat’s entrepreneurial journey? A．He has the courage to take risks. B．He will be involved in multiple projects. C．He’s widely honored for his work. D．He intends to buy a ride-sharing app. （十） （2025内蒙古自治区赤峰市一模）A Munich art museum worker has been fired for adding one of his own drawings to the collection without permission, which occurred in February. The Pinakothek der Moderne showcases art by Salvador Dali, Pablo Picasso, Nam June Paik and Max Ernst, among many others. The uninvited artist is not named in news accounts; the managers want to discourage others trying the same thing, unless, of course, they’re Banksy. We know only that the unauthorized artwork was 23 by 47 inches. Museums and galleries have limited space and budgets, and often display what they know people want to see. “Sometimes it can feel like it’s the same 25 artists always being exhibited in museums,” Clara Lieu, a former Rhode Island School of Design professor, told us. “I laughed softly when I saw this story,” she added. “It’s an exhibition opportunity that has never crossed my mind.” Nevertheless, she hopes other artists won’t follow with their own unapproved wall hangings, adding “Today, most of the time we look at artworks is on a phone. That makes museums even more important, to create experiences where we can engage with art more deeply. But all artists have a fundamental desire for their artworks to be seen.” I wonder if museums and galleries might consider having Open Wall nights, the way comedy clubs have Open Mic nights. Let people who paint, sculpt, knit, spray-paint, put their work on a real museum wall or base for a night, with permission. An Open Wall night might open a window through which more artists can be spotted and reminds us, too, that creating something with the power to charm, dazzle, or fascinate is not as easy as just hanging art on a wall. 37．What is mentioned about the worker’s artwork? A．It measured 23 by 47 inches. B．It was stolen from the museum. C．It was inspired by Salvador Dali. D．It was modeled after Banksy’s works. 38．What is Clara Lieu’s attitude to the art incident? A．Amused yet disapproving. B．Critical yet sympathetic. C．Indifferent and uncaring. D．Enthusiastic and supportive. 39．What does the author suggest museums and galleries do? A．Display more works of famous artists. B．Encourage artists to create digital artworks. C．Increase their budgets to collect more artworks. D．Offer more space for artists to show their works. 40．What does the article mainly discuss? A．A worker got fired for stealing artworks. B．Artists are frustrated with few shows. C．An incident starts museum-access talks. D．Museums should focus on digital artworks. （十一） （2025内蒙古自治区赤峰市一模）We all know someone like the ‘know-it-all’, who will enthusiastically lecture you about any topic or area, despite obviously having little to no expertise in what they’re talking about-and often, even though you do. Why would anyone assume superior knowledge to everyone else, about every possible subject matter? There are several quirks of human psychology that help explain this behaviour. One is the phenomenon of ‘naive realism’, which describes how people naturally assume that their perception of the world reflects objective reality. In actuality, everything we perceive and ‘know’ about the world has been filtered through a complex net of cognitive biases (认知偏差), sensory shortcuts and more. Once we encounter people whose understanding of the world is very different to our own, naive realism leads us to assume they are wrong. Another potential cognitive bias at work is ‘The illusion (错觉) of information adequacy’. Put simply, this describes how though many people lack sufficient information to make correct judgements about something, they’ll assume the opposite. It’s logically very hard to recognise and take account of what we don’t know. For example, someone notices their female co-worker running to the bathroom to be sick every morning. Based on just this information, they could conclude “she’s pregnant!” and plan to congratulate her. However, she reveals her sickness is due to chemotherapy (化疗). Since the first person made a conclusion with painfully insufficient evidence, they had the illusion of information adequacy. A combination of illusion of information adequacy and naive realism can make people believe they know more than they actually do. But even then, there’s still clearly more at work. For instance, some psychologists believe that the human brains tend to seek a sense of autonomy also accounts for the ‘know-it-all’ phenomenon. Besides, the pursuit of social status may drive the ‘know-it-all’ people to keep their superiority and dominance as well. Thus, the contradiction emerges: to become a ‘know-it-all’, you have to know far too little. 41．According to the passage, people with “naive realism” likely_____. A．think their perception is always right B．quickly change their world view C．have complex cognitive biases D．respect others’ different views 42．Why does the author mention the example of the female co-worker? A．To show how people make correct judgments. B．To illustrate “illusion of information adequacy”. C．To clarify the link between pregnancy and chemotherapy. D．To explain the importance of having sufficient information. 43．How does the pursuit of social status influence “know-it-all” behavior? A．It has no direct connection. B．It urges theme to learn more. C．It encourages more modesty. D．It forces them to seek authority. 44．What does the author imply by the underlined words? A．People with a lot of knowledge are less likely to be “know-it-all”. B．“Know-it-all” actually have vast amounts of knowledge but don’t show it. C．The more knowledge one has, the more likely they are to be “know-it-all”. D．There is no relationship between knowledge amount and being “know-it-all”. （十二） （2025届内蒙古阿拉善盟高三下学期一模）After 25 years at Mumsnet, the UK’s most popular website for parents, I thought I’d seen it all with big tech, but Google’s push to change UK copyright law for uncompensated content scraping (抓 取) left me stunned. We’ve experienced the direct impact of this, launching the first British legal action against OpenAI for scraping our content — likely for training its large language model (LLM) — without approval, a clear copyright violation (侵权). You might wonder why using online content for AI training is a problem, given Google’s data collection for search purpose since the dawn of the Internet. When websites allow Google to access their data, they receive a clear return on investment: the heightened search traffic that originates from being listed in Google’s search rankings. In contrast, AI training is building models such as ChatGPT to provide the answers to any prospective questions, and that will mean people no longer need to go elsewhere for solutions. And it is building those models with illegally scraped content from the very websites it is ready to replace. Allowing the AI companies to simply steal content isn’t just unfair to publishers who see no reward for the work they put in, or the risks they take, it’s also an existing threat to them and eventually counterproductive. If publishers disappear because the AIs have swept up all their traffic, then who’s left to produce the content to feed the AI models? Mumsnet is fortunate to be in a stronger position than many, as much of our traffic is direct, not search-engine driven. An AI chatbot can give a “Mumsnet-style” answer to a parenting question, but they’ll never be as funny about parking wars, and they’ll never offer the emotional support that helps around 1,000 women leave abusive partners each year. But if these trillion-dollar giants are allowed to exploit content producers, and get away with it, they will destroy many of them, and all the jobs dependent on them. 45．What does the underlined word “traffic” in Paragraph 2 mean?

The story began when Jenelle encountered Donald at a pawn (典当) shop in Manchester, where he was unwillingly pawning jewelry to cover his bills. Donald shared with Jenelle the hardships he was facing: His rent had increased, and he was finding it increasingly difficult to make the pot boil while caring for his wife. He feared they might lose their home and that his beloved wife could end up in a care facility due to their financial pressure. Deeply moved by his situation, Jenelle immediately took action. She gathered $1, 300 from her own savings and contributions from friends and family to help the 90-year-old. A video she shared of Donald receiving the money quickly went viral, recording the moment he called Jenelle “a hero”. The outpouring of support didn’t stop there. Jenelle set up a GoFundMe page for Donald, and the response flooded in. Donations poured in from around the world, bringing the total to nearly $400, 000. In an update, Jenelle shared the emotional moment she told Donald about the incredible generosity of strangers. “I told him it meant that everyone in the world was seeing this and stepping forward to donate,” she said. “Even before I told him the amount, he was already extremely emotional and couldn’t believe the kindness of strangers across the world.” Despite the outpouring of support, Donald remained humble, insisting he didn’t deserve it and that he was just an ordinary man. But as Jenelle explained to him, he’s much more than that to the countless people who have been touched by his story. Jenelle plans to keep the fundraiser open until she and Donald can meet with an agent to ensure the money is safely managed. This remarkable act of kindness shows how the generosity of strangers can transform lives, offering hope and security to those who need it most. 49．What is Donald’s difficulty? A．Pawning his jewelry. B．Renting a house. C．Making ends meet. D．Managing his movement. 50．What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A．How Jenelle started the movement. B．Hardships Donald and Jenelle shared. C．What was Donald’s fear in his life. D．Why Donald called Jenelle “a hero”. 51．Which best describes the donation after GoFundMe? A．Limited. B．Massive. C．Occasional. D．Regular. 52．What can be concluded from the text? A．Distant water cannot quench present thirst. B．Many hands make light work. C．A single tree cannot support a forest. D．Good deeds deserve good rewards. （十四） （2025届四川名优校联盟高三下学期一模）It was while touring Mississippi that John Ingall first spotted the plant that would change his life: the hardshell gourd (葫芦), a squash-like fruit with a thick, woody skin. After that, he saw them almost everywhere he went: carved gourds in porches, hanging gourds, gourds reimagined as lanterns and bird boxes. “I developed an interest,” Ingall says. Ingall worked for 45 years as a farmer, but had never seen fruit turned into art before, nor considered himself in the least bit artistic. “I was so involved with farming, I didn’t have time to be. But I thought, ‘I’ll try it.’” When he returned to his farm in Warwickshire, Ingall planted a few among the tomatoes. In no time, the vines had grown to 6ft tall. Walking through the tunnel some weeks later, he parted the foliage and was surprised to see some enormous fruit growing. Ingall grew up in the Kent countryside, and knew from childhood that he wanted to be a farmer. His father was a banker, his mother a housewife. “They were very against me going into farming,” he says. But Ingall was set on the idea: “I had a pretty romantic idea of what it would be like farming and living in the countryside.” Over that period, Ingall’s establishment evolved gradually through 15 years of intensive dairy farming to less intensive beef farming, then organic farming and now, to rewilding. “I don’t really enjoy surprises. I like things to progress steadily.” he says. Yet his gourds have empowered him to surprise himself. “I’d like to introduce gourd art to more people here. It’s a form with great potential.” Ingall started by making lanterns, and now incorporates (包含) stained glass into the shells. He also creates what are known as thunder gourds: “Fix a drum skin to it, and when you shake it, it makes a sound like thunder. People come to our open studio, see a gourd hanging and don’t know what it is. Then I shake it — and jaws drop.” As well as selling gourds through his personal studio, Ingall markets them at art fairs, donating profits to fight the climate crisis. “It’s very fulfilling. Gourds are an entirely sustainable canvas for many types of art.” he says. 53．What did Ingall find during his Mississippi tour? A．A new plant native to the city. B．An innovative farming method. C．The city’s art environments. D．Gourds turned into works of art. 54．What do we know about Ingall as a farmer? A．He became rich by farming. B．He improved the crop variety. C．He liked change in a controlled way. D．He was grateful to his parents’ opposition. 55．What was special about Ingall’s gourd art? A．It can surprise people. B．It is environment-themed. C．It is for personal collection. D．It will be put on the market. 56．What is the passage mainly about? A．A new art gaining global popularity. B．A profitable plant with a potential market. C．A farmer who turned a crop into works of art. D．An artist with an environmental consciousness. （十五） （2025届四川省巴中中学高三下学期一模）“Being overly logical and rational is the wrong way to make important life decisions,” says Michael Puett in his class, after a student asks how to deal with the issues at the crossroads of life. “Decisions are made from the heart. In Chinese, ‘mind’ and ‘heart’ are inseparable. We would make better decisions when we let our rational and emotional sides blend (融合) into one.” Puett is one of the scholars who teach students ancient Chinese philosophy at Harvard University. Puett has seen more students who are feeling pushed onto a very specific path towards very concrete career goals. Thus, he set up the course and helped the college students struggling to find their place in the world figure out how to have a good life and create a good society. His course has gone viral among the Harvard students. One of Puett’s former students, Adam Mitchell, attracted by Chinese philosophy, was once at a loss. During that time, majors related to finance and economics were quite popular. Few students would choose humanities. Adam had intended to major in economics. But after his introduction to the professor’s course, he chose to follow his own heart and study Chinese, and knew what his life goal was. Puett believes we should train ourselves to be ‘spontaneous’ (率性的) in daily life, much like practicing the piano to play effortlessly, instead of relying only on rational decision-making. At the end of each class, Puett challenges his students to put the Chinese philosophy into practice in their everyday lives. “I’m not trying to give my students really big advice. Instead, I just want to give them a sense of what they can do daily to transform how they live.” 57．What is Puett’s suggestion for decision-making? A．Follow rules and guidelines. B．Integrate heart and mind. C．Depend on reason and logic. D．Rely on emotions and feelings. 58．Why does Puett teach students Chinese philosophy? A．To spread Chinese culture. B．To make students more rational. C．To make his course popular. D．To offer guidance for a better life. 59．Why does the author mention Adam Mitechell? A．To show Puett’s influence on students. B．To recommend Puett’s course to others. C．To explain the struggles in philosophy. D．To inspire major changes in students. 60．What does the last paragraph mainly talk about? A．Students’ learning process. B．Practical daily tasks. C．Puett’s teaching approach. D．After-class assignments. （十六） （2025届四川省巴中中学一模）In today’s fast-paced world, joy can often feel hard to find. However, Zadie Smith offers a refreshing perspective on the concept of joy and its significance in our lives, in her essay Joy. Through a blend of personal anecdotes, literary references, and thought-provoking insights, Smith explores the complexities of joy and its relationship to happiness. Smith explores the definition and perception of joy, distinguishing it from happiness, which originates from internal contentment rather than external circumstances. She finds joy in small pleasures of life, such as interactions with a child or observing daily routines. While society often views joy as short-lived or shallow, prioritizing grand achievements and material pursuits, Smith challenges this notion, arguing that joy in simple things significantly enhances our well-being. One of the key aspects of Smith’s essay is her exploration of the role of literature in capturing and conveying joy. She claims that by immersing ourselves in the stories and experiences of others, we can broaden our horizons and find joy in the shared human experience. This insight emphasizes the importance of storytelling and the arts in fostering a sense of joy and connection in society. Smith also digs into how identity shapes our understanding of joy, reflecting on her multicultural background and its influence on her views. She highlights how joy is often rooted in cultural legacy and individual experiences, emphasizing the value of embracing diverse identities. Furthermore, Smith examines the role of community and social connections in fostering joy. She argues that joy is often connected with our relationships and the sense of belonging we get from them. Sharing laughter or celebrating together with others can make our joy stronger and build a sense of community. Zadie Smith’s essay Joy offers an exploration of joy and its significance in our lives and encourages us to reevaluate our understanding of joy and seek its presence in our everyday lives. 61．How does Smith think people can find joy? A．By appreciating ordinary moments of daily life. B．By achieving great success and acquiring wealth. C．By seeking contentment in external circumstances. D．By focusing on personal growth through self-reflection. 62．What role does literature play in pursuing joy? A．It provides entertainment for society. B．It distracts us from problems. C．It promotes understanding of others. D．It helps us find life’s meaning. 63．What influences our view of joy according to Smith? A．Financial status and social recognition. B．Cultural heritage and social relationships. C．Professional success and personal value. D．Physical health and educational background. 64．What’s the text? A．A commentary. B．A news report. C．A book review. D．A personal narrative. （十七） （2025·河南省信阳市固始县高级中学第一中学一模）A few days ago, I watched a video of myself talking in perfect Chinese. I’ve been studying the language on and off for only a few years, and I’m far from fluent. But there I was, pronouncing each character just as a native speaker would. “My favorite food is sushi,” I said — wo zui xihuan de shiwu shi shousi. I’d created the video using software from a Los Angeles-based artificial-intelligence start-up called HeyGen. The technology, which only needs a single selfie and a script to generate deepfake videos of real people “saying” almost anything, is a testament (证明) to the advancements in AI language tools. This got me thinking about the declining interest in language learning with fewer students enrolling in foreign language courses and the decrease of English proficiency among young people in some places. AI translation, integrated into social media and messaging platforms, seems to be everywhere. Even language-learning apps are using AI-generated content in their marketing. However, language translation is an art rather than a science. Something enormous will be lost in exchange for that convenience. As Anne, a Chinese translator said, “Building a ladder between widely different languages, such as Chinese and English, is sometimes as difficult as a doctor building a bridge in a patient’s heart,” Language learning fosters cultural competency, a skill that AI cannot simply copy. Learning a different way to speak, read, and write helps people discover new ways to see the world. No machine can replace such a profoundly human experience. Deborah Cohn, a language professor, emphasizes that language learning is actually about understanding and connecting with different cultures; Instead of abandoning language courses in favor of AI, some educators advocate for emphasizing the intercultural aspects of language learning. Paula Krebs of the MLA points out that even with a “universal translator”, sometimes, the greater meaning of people’s utterance (言辞) remains a mystery. In essence, while AI language tools offer convenience, they lack the depth and cultural insight that comes from human language learning. The challenge and beauty of learning a language are in understanding the cultural tapestry (织锦) that weaves through words, something AI has yet to achieve. 65．Why does the author give the example in paragraph 1? A．To promote the language software. B．To show off his Chinese language skills. C．To prove learning a language is a wasted effort. D．To encourage critical thinking about AI language tools. 66．What can we learn from paragraph 3? A．AI translation deserves more attention. B．Language apps play a key role in marketing. C．Language translation is far beyond technology. D．Learning a different language is an uphill battle. 67．What is the key benefit of learning a language according to the passage? A．Better digital literacy. B．Improved translation skills. C．Deeper cultural confidence. D．Effective intercultural interaction. 68．What does the author imply in the last paragraph? A．AI language tools offer convenience. B．AI facilitates language learning in terms of culture. C．AI is far from perfect in helping language understanding. D．AI has achieved success in the development of language learning tools. 1 / 13 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 专题03 阅读理解（记叙文+新闻报道+议论文+书评） 考查范围：主题、语篇范围 题号 难度 知识点 一、阅读理解 1 较难 科普知识 ,科学技术 ,说明文 2 适中 社会问题与社会现象,夹叙夹议 3 较难 哲理感悟,议论文 4 较难 科普知识 ,夹叙夹议,时间管理 5 适中 旅游观光,记叙文,个人经历 6 适中 新闻报道,善行义举（个人） 7 适中 科普知识 ,新闻报道 8 适中 文学形式与文学作品,说明文 9 适中 日常生活 ,发明与创造 ,记叙文 10 适中 美术与摄影,社会问题与社会现象,新闻报道 11 适中 社会问题与社会现象,说明文 12 适中 社会问题与社会现象,议论文,人工智能 13 较易 记叙文,善行义举（个人） 14 适中 记叙文,生活故事 15 适中 课程,记叙文 16 适中 哲理感悟,议论文 17 较难 语言与文化 ,议论文,人工智能 （一） （2025届河南省信阳市固始县固始县永和高级中学一模）With the help from an artificial language (AL) model, MIT neuroscientists have discovered what kind of sentences are most likely to fire up the brain’s key language processing centers. The new study reveals that sentences that are more complex, because of either unusual grammar or unexpected meaning, generate stronger responses in these language processing centers. Sentences that are very straightforward barely engage these regions, and meaningless orders of words don’t do much for them either. In this study, the researchers focused on language-processing regions found in the left hemisphere (半球) of the brain. By collecting a set of 1,000 sentences from various sources, the researchers measured the brain activity of participants using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) while they read the sentences. The same sentences were also fed into a large language model, similar to ChatGPT, to measure the model’s activation patterns. Once the researchers had all of those data, they trained the model to predict how the human language network would respond to any new sentence based on how the artificial language network responded to these 1,000 sentences. The researchers then used the model to determine 500 new sentences that would drive highest brain activity and sentences that would make the brain less active, and their findings were confirmed in subsequent human participants. To understand why certain sentences generate stronger brain responses, the model examined the sentences based on 11 different language characteristics. The analysis revealed that sentences that were more surprising resulted in greater brain activity. Another linguistic (语言的) aspect that correlated with the brain’s language network responses was the complexity of the sentences, which was determined by how well they followed English grammar rules and bow logically they linked with each other. The researchers now plan to see if they can extend these findings in speakers of languages other than English. They also hope to explore what type of stimuli may activate language processing regions in the brain’s right hemisphere. 1．What sentences make our brain work harder? A．Lengthy. B．Logical. C．Straightforward. D．Complicated. 2．What is the function of the AL model in the research? A．To examine language network. B．To reduce language complexity. C．To locate language processing area. D．To identify language characteristics. 3．How did the researchers carry out their study? A．By conducting interviews. B．By collecting questionnaires. C．By analyzing experiment data. D．By reviewing previous studies. 4．Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A．AL Model Stimulates Brain Activities B．AL Model Speeds Up Language Learning C．AL Model Reveals the Secrets of Brain Activation D．AL Model Enhances Brain Processing Capacity 【答案】1．D 2．D 3．C 4．C 【导语】本文是篇新闻报道。这篇文章详细描述了MIT神经科学家利用人工语言模型进行的一项新研究，揭示了哪种类型的句子最有可能激发大脑关键的语言处理中心。 1．细节理解题。根据第一段“With the help from an artificial language (AL) model, MIT neuroscientists have discovered what kind of sentences are most likely to fire up the brain’s key language processing centers. The new study reveals that sentences that are more complex, because of either unusual grammar or unexpected meaning, generate stronger responses in these language processing centers.(在人工语言(AL)模型的帮助下，麻省理工学院的神经科学家们发现了哪种句子最有可能激活大脑的关键语言处理中心。这项新研究表明，由于语法不同寻常或含义出乎意料，更复杂的句子会在这些语言处理中心产生更强烈的反应)”可知，复杂的句子会让我们的大脑更努力工作。故选D项。 2．推理判断题。根据第二段“The same sentences were also fed into a large language model, similar to ChatGPT, to measure the model’s activation patterns. Once the researchers had all of those data, they trained the model to predict how the human language network would respond to any new sentence based on how the artificial language network responded to these 1,000 sentences.(同样的句子也被输入到一个类似于ChatGPT的大型语言模型中，以测量模型的激活模式。一旦研究人员获得了所有这些数据，他们就会训练模型，根据人工语言网络对这1000个句子的反应，来预测人类语言网络对任何新句子的反应)”以及第三段“The researchers then used the model to determine 500 new sentences that would drive highest brain activity and sentences that would make the brain less active, and their findings were confirmed in subsequent human participants. To understand why certain sentences generate stronger brain responses, the model examined the sentences based on 11 different language characteristics.(然后，研究人员用这个模型确定了500个能激发大脑最高活动的新句子和能让大脑不那么活跃的句子，他们的发现在随后的人类参与者中得到了证实。为了理解为什么某些句子会产生更强烈的大脑反应，该模型根据11种不同的语言特征检查了这些句子)”可知，人工智能模型在本研究中的作用是识别语言特征。故选D项。 3．推理判断题。根据第三段“The researchers then used the model to determine 500 new sentences that would drive highest brain activity and sentences that would make the brain less active, and their findings were confirmed in subsequent human participants.

It should have been a pretty straightforward answer. Hannah was looking for the part of the shop where non-fiction books about disability and by disabled authors were kept, but the question drew a blank. This is because most bookshops don’t have a specific place for non-fiction disabled books. Where there are sections for non-fiction books on important sections of identity such as race, gender and social studies, disability has been forgotten about again. Hannah took to social media to share her disappointment and it resonated(共鸣)with much of the disabled community. After being asked by one Waterstones staff member if she could fill a shelf, she sourced a long list that could take up a whole bookcase. And there is a huge number of them to choose from. There are also some incredible new and upcoming books by disabled voices. And hopefully, in the coming years, my own memoir book will also sit alongside them. From my own experience, the book-writing world is a hard space to access as a disabled woman. We’re constantly told there isn’t a market for our books or cheated off by agents and publishers who say they already have something similar—when often the only similarity is that we’re disabled women. Not having our own section feeds these problems. The response I’ve had to this campaign shows that the demand for these books is there. Growing up I would get swept up in stories of regular girls having adventures—but as someone treated with multiple conditions from the age of nine onwards, I very rarely saw myself in the pages I was pouring over. Growing up I never saw myself in books and it was one of the reasons I struggled to accept my disabilities. Hopefully disabled kids will grow up learning they’re fine just as they are. 5．What does the underlined word “baffled” in paragraph 1 probably mean? A．Amused. B．Moved. C．Confused. D．Angered. 6．What is the problem with books for the disabled in the bookstore? A．Few of them are published. B．No special areas are for them. C．The latest ones are in short supply. D．They are seen as non-fiction books. 7．What can be inferred about the author? A．She is a writer. B．She is a teacher. C．She is a historian. D．She is a librarian. 8．What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A．To donate books to the disabled. B．To promote books from the disabled. C．To support education for the disabled. D．To address reading needs for the disabled. 【答案】5．C 6．B 7．A 8．D 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章讲述了Hannah Barham Brown博士在水石书店询问关于残障方面书籍区位置却未得到答案一事，再结合自己作为残障女性在图书创作领域的艰难经历，探讨了书店缺乏残障类书籍专区所带来的问题。 5．词义猜测题。根据文章第一段““Where can I find your disability section?” This was the question that baffled Waterstones staff when asked by Dr Hannah Barham Brown. It should have been a pretty straightforward answer. Hannah was looking for the part of the shop where non-fiction books about disability and by disabled authors were kept, but the question drew a blank.(“我在哪里可以找到你们书店关于残障方面的书籍区呢？”当Hannah Barham Brown博士向水石书店的工作人员提出这个问题时，他们……。这本该是一个相当简单直接就能回答的问题。Hannah想要找的是书店里陈列关于残障的非虚构类书籍以及残障作者所著书籍的区域，但这个问题却没有得到答案。)”可知，Hannah Barham Brown博士问的问题本应是一个相当简单直接就能回答的问题，然而书店工作人员却对此答不上来。问题答不出来，工作人员应该是感到困惑。所以“baffled”可能的意思是“困惑的”。选项C“confused”，意为“困惑的”，与此相符。故选C。 6．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“This is because most bookshops don’t have a specific place for non-fiction disabled books. Where there are sections for non-fiction books on important sections of identity such as race, gender and social studies, disability has been forgotten about again.(这是因为大多数书店并没有专门用来摆放非虚构类残障书籍的区域。在书店里，有专门的区域陈列关于种族、性别和社会研究等重要身份领域的非虚构类书籍，而残障方面的书籍却又一次被遗忘了。)”可知，大多数书店没有为关于残障的非虚构类书籍设立特定的区域。在书店里有关于种族、性别和社会研究等重要身份领域的非虚构类书籍专区，但残障方面的书籍区域却被遗忘了。所以书店里残障相关书籍存在的问题是没有专门为它们设立的区域。故选B。 7．推理判断题。根据文章第三段“And hopefully, in the coming years, my own memoir book will also sit alongside them.(希望在未来的几年里，我自己的回忆录也能和它们摆在一起。)”以及第四段“From my own experience, the book-writing world is a hard space to access as a disabled woman. We’re constantly told there isn’t a market for our books or cheated off by agents and publishers who say they already have something similar—when often the only similarity is that we’re disabled women.(就我自己的经历而言，作为一名残障女性，想要进入图书创作领域是非常困难的。我们总是被告知，我们的书没有市场，或者被经纪人和出版商欺骗，他们说他们已经有类似的作品了——而通常所谓的相似之处仅仅在于我们都是残障女性。)”可知，作者提到希望自己的回忆录能和其他残障人士创作的书籍摆在一起，还讲述了自己作为残障女性在图书创作领域遇到的困难，如被告知书籍没有市场、被经纪人和出版商欺骗等。由此可推测，作者是一名作家。故选A。 8．推理判断题。根据文章内容可知，文章开篇讲述了Hannah Barham Brown博士在书店找不到残障类书籍专区的经历，接着指出书店普遍缺乏这类专区的现象，然后作者结合自身作为残障女性在图书创作领域的艰难经历，说明残障类书籍有需求却面临诸多困境，最后提到自己成长过程中很少在书中看到与自己相关的内容，希望残障儿童能通过相关书籍认识到自己本来的样子就很好。所以作者写这篇文章的目的是满足残障人士的阅读需求。故选D。 （三） （2025届河南省五市高三下学期一模）What if everything happens for a reason? Burnt toast theory, a modern view on this classic idea, suggests that every little inconvenience we experience in our day-to-day lives happens for a bigger reason. Imagine you accidentally burn your toast before leaving for work. According to burnt toast theory, this tiny inconvenience can cause a domino effect (多米诺效应). Your morning gets delayed by three to five minutes—just enough time to leave the house later than usual and avoid a potential car accident. Or perhaps you catch a later train, missing an awkward encounter with someone you don’t intend to see. You might even meet someone new whom you wouldn’t have otherwise met, leading to a friendship or romantic connection. When we feel like things are outside our control, that can be scary. The burnt toast theory can help some people let go of their need for control and take negative situations more positively. However, while maintaining a positive mindset can be beneficial, over-optimism can lead to “poisonous positivity”. When we only allow ourselves to focus on positive thoughts, we are denying ourselves the chance to properly deal with challenges and difficult situations to better ourselves, focusing on creating a false positive façade (假象) instead. By constantly avoiding negative experiences, we might ignore their real impact on us and fail to acknowledge when we’re struggling. It can make us feel worse about ourselves, and may lead to pushing down negative feelings or experiences, and refusing to acknowledge or deal with them fully. Instead of focusing purely on positive thinking, working towards developing a growth mindset may be more helpful. You don’t always have to look for life’s silver linings, or even the meaning behind a little burnt toast. Sometimes things happen, and they suck. But as long as we take time to acknowledge how these things make us feel, and recognize that we can’t always control everything around us, we can still work towards improving ourselves, and how we handle life’s unexpected challenges—and that’s what really matters. 9．What can be inferred from the burnt toast theory? A．Life is a process, not destination. B．Lost in the east, gained in the west. C．Life is full of endless challenges. D．Lost time will never be found again. 10．Which can be an outcome from “poisonous positivity”? A．Loss of chances to grow. B．Failure to acknowledge others. C．Inability to control emotions. D．Decline in physical health. 11．Which can be seen as a growth mindset mentioned in the last paragraph? A．Finding reasons for failure. B．Avoiding pushing others too hard. C．Accepting life and making it better. D．Keeping a positive mindset and working hard. 12．Which is the best possible title for the text? A．Bum Toast Theory: Find a True Self B．Bum Toast Theory: Lead a Positive Life C．Burn Toast Theory: More than Positivity D．Burn Toast Theory: How to Live Actively 【答案】9．B 10．A 11．C 12．C 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述了烤焦面包理论及其相关思考，指出相较于单纯积极思考，培养成长型思维模式更有益，要正视事情带来的感受，认识到无法掌控一切，努力提升应对意外挑战的能力。 9．推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Imagine you accidentally burn your toast before leaving for work. According to burnt toast theory, this tiny inconvenience can cause a domino effect(多米诺效应). Your morning gets delayed by three to five minutes—just enough time to leave the house later than usual and avoid a potential car accident. Or perhaps you catch a later train, missing an awkward encounter with someone you don’t intend to see. You might even meet someone new whom you wouldn’t have otherwise met, leading to a friendship or romantic connection.(想象一下，在你上班前不小心把面包烤焦了。根据烤焦面包理论，这个小小的不便可能会引发多米诺效应。你的早晨会因此延迟三到五分钟——而这恰好让你比平常晚些出门，从而避开了一场可能发生的车祸。又或者，你会搭乘晚一班的火车，错过与某个你不想见到的人的尴尬碰面。你甚至可能会结识一个原本不会认识的新朋友，进而发展出一段友谊或浪漫的关系。)”可知，根据烤焦面包理论，比如不小心烤焦面包这种看似不好的小事情，可能会引发一系列连锁反应，带来意想不到的好结果，像避开一场潜在的车祸、错过不想见的人或者结识新朋友等。这体现了“失之东隅，收之桑榆”的道理，即虽然在一方面有所损失，却在另一方面有所收获。故选B。 10．推理判断题。根据文章第四段“When we only allow ourselves to focus on positive thoughts, we are denying ourselves the chance to properly deal with challenges and difficult situations to better ourselves, focusing on creating a false positive facade(假象)instead.

It can make us feel worse about ourselves, and may lead to pushing down negative feelings or experiences, and refusing to acknowledge or deal with them fully.(当我们只允许自己关注积极的想法时，我们其实是在剥夺自己妥善应对挑战和困境、让自己变得更好的机会，取而代之的是专注于营造一种虚假的积极表象。通过不断地回避负面经历，我们可能会忽视它们对我们产生的真正影响，并且在自己陷入挣扎时也无法察觉。这会让我们对自己感觉更糟糕，还可能导致我们压抑负面情绪或经历，拒绝全面地认识和处理它们。)”可知，当陷入“有毒的积极心态”时，我们只关注积极想法，会剥夺自己妥善应对挑战和困境、让自己变得更好的机会，专注于营造一种虚假的积极表象。由此可知，“有毒的积极心态”可能导致的结果是失去成长的机会。故选A。 11．推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Instead of focusing purely on positive thinking, working towards developing a growth mindset may be more helpful. You don’t always have to look for life’s silver linings, or even the meaning behind a little burnt toast. Sometimes things happen, and they suck. But as long as we take time to acknowledge how these things make us feel, and recognize that we can’t always control everything around us, we can still work towards improving ourselves, and how we handle life’s unexpected challenges—and that’s what really matters.(与其单纯地专注于积极思考，努力培养一种成长型思维模式或许会更有帮助。你并非总是需要去寻找生活中的一线希望，甚至是一片烤焦面包背后的意义。有时候事情就是发生了，而且很糟糕。但只要我们花时间去正视这些事情给我们带来的感受，并且认识到我们无法总是掌控身边的一切，我们仍然能够努力提升自己，改进我们应对生活中意外挑战的方式——而这才是真正重要的。)”可知，培养成长型思维模式不是单纯地专注于积极思考，不必总是去寻找生活中的积极面，当事情糟糕时，我们要正视这些事情带给我们的感受，认识到我们无法控制周围的一切，并且努力提升自己以及处理生活中意外挑战的能力。由此可知，最后一段提到的成长型思维模式的是接受生活并让它变得更好。故选C。 12．主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知，文章开篇引入烤焦面包理论，即生活中的小不便背后有更大原因，接着阐述该理论能帮助人们以更积极的态度看待负面情况，随后指出过度乐观导致的 “有毒的积极心态” 的危害，强调不能单纯专注于积极思考，最后提出培养成长型思维模式更有益，要正视生活中的各种情况并努力提升应对能力。选项C“Burn Toast Theory: More than Positivity(烤焦面包理论：不仅仅是积极心态)”既包含了烤焦面包理论能带来积极看待事情的一面，又指出了不能仅仅局限于积极心态，还需要应对生活中的各种情况，培养成长型思维，全面地概括了文章的主旨。故选C。 （四） （2025届河南省名校联盟高三一模）I talked with a friend recently who is overwhelmed by her workload. She asked me what tips I might have for her around time management. That question surprised me. I’ve never thought of myself as someone with great time management skills, mostly because I tend to avoid rigid productivity systems, believing that they limit creativity. It wasn’t until we parted that it hit me. I don’t focus on time management, but on energy management. Somewhere along the way, I learned that the time something takes is secondary to energy. I would argue that you could work six hours on a task that gives you energy and feel fresh and ready for what’s next. Or, you could spend three hours on a tiring and unfulfilling task and need to check out for the rest of the day. I’m a fan of making lists and getting things crossed off the list. But maturity has taught me that satisfaction comes not from crossing things off the list, but intentionality about what goes on the list. If everything on the list is an energy waste, how will it feel to get those things done? Russ Hudson, a teacher, said something recently that blew the doors open for me on this concept. He spoke about the energy of frustration (懊恼), but it could be applied to any negative emotion. He said that frustration is an addictive emotion because it causes us to be stressed. Hudson said, “Life force gets trapped in frustration.” So that extensive energy I spend being frustrated is trapping life force energy that might go to more useful, productive, creative pursuits. In a world that often focuses on getting the most out of every hour, it’s about time we should change our focus. We should pay attention to how our energy changes throughout the day, and learn how to create, use, and save it. It’s not hard to start thinking this way. We just need to be more aware of ourselves and make careful choices. 13．Why is the author’s friend mentioned in paragraph 1? A．To lead in the topic. B．To clarify a definition. C．To present a common phenomenon. D．To share a personal experience. 14．What is the author’s core argument about productivity? A．Completing tasks quickly guarantees satisfaction. B．Making task lists lays the foundation for achievements. C．Energy management matters more than time management. D．Strict time management systems are essential for success. 15．According to Russ Hudson, why is frustration problematic? A．It wastes time that could be used for work. B．It makes people ignorant of their limitations. C．It leaves people trapped in their comfort zone. D．It stops people pursuing something meaningful in life. 16．What might be talked about following the last paragraph? A．Ways to reduce negative emotions in work. B．The relationship between energy and creativity. C．The disadvantages of focusing on time management. D．Examples of managing energy through awareness and choices. 【答案】13．A 14．C 15．D 16．D 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章由朋友咨询时间管理技巧引出话题，论述了精力管理比时间管理更重要，并强调要关注和合理管理精力。 13．推理判断题。根据第一段“I talked with a friend recently who is overwhelmed by her workload. She asked me what tips I might have for her around time management. That question surprised me. I’ve never thought of myself as someone with great time management skills, mostly because I tend to avoid rigid productivity systems, believing that they limit creativity.(我最近和一位被工作压得喘不过气来的朋友聊了聊。她问我关于时间管理有什么建议。这个问题让我很惊讶。我从来没觉得自己是个有出色时间管理能力的人，主要是因为我倾向于避免严格的效率体系，认为它们会限制创造力)”可知，作者先提及朋友咨询时间管理技巧，随后引出自己对精力管理的看法，所以提及朋友是为了引出文章主题。故选A项。 14．细节理解题。根据第二段中“It wasn’t until we parted that it hit me. I don’t focus on time management, but on energy management. Somewhere along the way, I learned that the time something takes is secondary to energy.(直到我们分开我才意识到。我不关注时间管理，而是关注精力管理。在某个时候，我了解到做一件事所花费的时间相对于精力来说是次要的)”可知，作者认为精力管理比时间管理更重要。故选C项。 15．推理判断题。根据第四段中“He said that frustration is an addictive emotion because it causes us to be stressed. Hudson said, ‘Life force gets trapped in frustration.’ So that extensive energy I spend being frustrated is trapping life force energy that might go to more useful, productive, creative pursuits.(他说懊恼是一种容易让人上瘾的情绪，因为它会让我们感到压力。哈德森说：‘生命力被困在了懊恼之中。’所以我在懊恼上花费的大量精力，正困住本可以用于更有用、更有成效、更有创造性追求的生命力)”可知，懊恼会困住本可以用于更有用、更有成效、更有创造性追求的生命力，会阻止人们追求生活中有意义的事情。故选D项。 16．推理判断题。根据最后一段“We should pay attention to how our energy changes throughout the day, and learn how to create, use, and save it. It’s not hard to start thinking this way. We just need to be more aware of ourselves and make careful choices.(我们应该注意我们的精力在一天中是如何变化的，并学习如何创造、使用和保存它。开始这样思考并不难。我们只需要更加了解自己并谨慎做出选择)”可推知，接下来可能会举例说明如何通过自我认知和选择来管理精力。故选D项。 （五） （2025届河南省创新发展联盟高三下学期一模）I was staying on the island of Kos and the friend I have there wanted to show me a nice beach on the island of Telendos. To visit Telendos, we had to take the boat to Kalymnos, drive through the island to the other side and take the boat to Telendos from there. This short drive through Kalymnos was enough for me to appreciate the island’s beauty. Kalymnos is world-famous for its sponge (海绵) divers, so I wanted to meet at least one. I had been told that they were supposed to be difficult-to-reach people. In fact, my experience was out of kilter with this widely-held view. Five minutes after I arrived, I met Antonis, who was selling his sponges on his boat by the harbour. Through a brief exchange, I learned he used to be a sponge diver, but now he has retired. I asked him whether he had a warehouse (货仓) where we could go together. He was surprised and told me that there was not much to see or photograph in his warehouse. He gave me directions to more modern ones. When people say things like that to me, I know that this is the place I will probably be photographing. However, I took the time to go and see the modern warehouses, which I didn’t care for too much, photographically speaking. Just by chance, I saw Antonis wandering around. I asked him again if we could go to his warehouse. It was not far away, so he agreed. As I had expected, his warehouse was a feast for my eyes. It was just what I had in my mind. I wasted no time and asked to take his photo. As I traversed the island, the sight of traditionally clothed women got positive reactions, even from locals not accustomed to such dresses. A voluntary visit to an elderly villager’s home, warmly welcomed, added a close touch to my cultural journey. 17．What does the underlined part “was out of kilter with” mean in paragraph 2? A．Was contrary to. B．Cast light on. C．Was consistent with. D．Had something to do with. 18．How did Antonis react to the author’s request to visit his warehouse at first? A．Excitedly. B．Unwillingly. C．Impatiently. D．Anxiously. 19．Why did the author show little interest in modern warehouses? A．They were not easy to reach. B．He didn’t find them well-equipped. C．They were not appealing for photography. D．He didn’t trust what Antonis had recommended. 20．What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A．To display the natural beauty on Kalymnos. B．To show the daily life of the locals on Kalymnos. C．To share his personal travel experience on Kalymnos. D．To introduce the unique profession of sponge divers on Kalymnos. 【答案】17．A 18．B 19．C 20．C 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者前往卡里姆诺斯岛，在岛上遇到了当地的居民，了解了他们的生活。 17．词句猜测题。根据第二段前文“I had been told that they were supposed to be difficult-to-reach people.(我被告知他们应该是难以接触的人)”以及后文“Five minutes after I arrived, I met Antonis, who was selling his sponges on his boat by the harbour. Through a brief exchange, I learned he used to be a sponge diver, but now he has retired.(我到达五分钟后，就遇到了安东尼斯，他正在港口边的船上卖海绵。通过简短的交流，我了解到他曾经是一名海绵潜水员，但现在他已经退休了)”可知，作者一开始被告知海绵潜水员难以接触，但是接着就很快了解了安东尼斯的情况，推测作者的经历与上文提到的“他们应该是难以接触的人”这种观点相反。故划线词意思是“与……相反”。故选A。 18．推理判断题。根据第三段“He was surprised and told me that there was not much to see or photograph in his warehouse.(他很惊讶，告诉我他的仓库里没有什么可看或可拍的东西)”可知，作者要求参观安东尼斯的仓库，安东尼斯最初不情愿。故选B。 19．细节理解题。根据第三段“However, I took the time to go and see the modern warehouses, which I didn’t care for too much, photographically speaking.(不过，我还是花时间去看了看现代化的仓库，从摄影角度来说，我不太喜欢这些仓库)”可知，作者对现代仓库不感兴趣因为它们对摄影没有吸引力。故选C。 20．推理判断题。根据第一段“This short drive through Kalymnos was enough for me to appreciate the island’s beauty.(这段在卡里姆诺斯岛的短暂车程足以让我欣赏到这座岛屿的美丽)”结合文章主要讲述了作者前往卡里姆诺斯岛，在岛上遇到了当地的居民，了解了他们的生活。可知，作者写这篇文章的目的是分享他在卡里姆诺斯岛的个人旅行经历。故选C。 （六） （2025届山西省高三下学期一模一模）A supermarket in Manchester, UK, has introduced a “quiet hour” to assist autistic (患自闭症的) customers. The ASDA branch in Cheetham Hill, led by manager Simon Lea, has created a special time during which the store becomes much quieter and calmer. During this hour, escalators (手扶电梯) are stopped, in-store music and televisions are turned off, and the usual crowd and noise of the store are minimized. This initiative aims to help people who are sensitive to noise and may find the typical shopping experience intense, especially those with autism. The idea for this project was brought out when Simon witnessed a young boy having lost control of emotions in the store. The boy, who was with his mother, became upset by the loud noises around him. Simon, who saw the boy’s mother looking terribly tired, offered the child a football to calm him down. When the boy started playing with the ball, his mood immediately improved. This moment inspired Simon to think about how the store could better support customers with autism and other sense-related issues. Simon’s goal is to create a more welcoming environment for everyone. He believes that the quiet hour will benefit not only people with autism but also those who suffer from anxiety or other mental health conditions, as he himself has struggled with anxiety in the past. The store also provides a special map for autistic customers, with pictures instead of words, to make it easier to get around. Tom Madders, Head of Campaigns at the National Autistic Society said, “We are very pleased to hear that ASDA are introducing a ‘quiet-hour’ in its Manchester store. This initiative is a great example of an organization taking the trouble to understand how autistic people experience the world and we hope other businesses are inspired to follow their example. ” 21．Why is the “quiet hour” introduced at ASDA? A．To improve the store’s efficiency. B．To attract more customers to the store. C．To help people who are sensitive to noise. D．To offer discounts for special-needs customers. 22．What inspired Simon Lea to launch the initiative? A．His observation of a child with autism struggling. B．His personal experience with dealing with anxiety. C．Complaints from customers about excessive noise. D．Suggestions from a mother of a child with autism. 23．What is Simon Lea’s belief about the “quiet hour”? A．It will primarily benefit people with children. B．It will be successful in attracting new customers. C．It will make the store more efficient and organized. D．It will help those with autism and mental health issues. 24．What is Tom Madders’s reaction to ASDA’s changes? A．Appreciative. B．Doubtful. C．Critical. D．Concerned. 【答案】21．C 22．A 23．D 24．A 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了英国曼彻斯特一家超市为了协助自闭症顾客而推出的“安静时间”活动，详细介绍了该活动的实施方式、目的、起源以及对其他顾客的潜在益处，并引用了国家自闭症协会一位负责人的评论来表达对这一举措的认可。 21．细节理解题。根据文章第一段“This initiative aims to help people who are sensitive to noise and may find the typical shopping experience intense, especially those with autism.(这一举措旨在帮助那些对噪音敏感、可能觉得平常的购物体验过于刺激的人，尤其是自闭症患者。)”可知，阿斯达超市推出“安静小时”是为了帮助对噪音敏感的人，尤其是自闭症患者，让他们能更舒适地购物。故选C。 22．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The idea for this project was brought out when Simon witnessed a young boy having lost control of emotions in the store.

This discovery offers new insights into memory function and potential treatments for memory-related issues, according to New York University. The research aimed to explore whether non-brain cells contribute to memory by applying the massed-spaced effect — a principle suggesting that information is remembered better when learned over multiple periods rather than through intensive study in a single session. In their study, published in Nature Communications, scientists investigated two types of non-brain human cells in a laboratory setting. These cells were exposed to various chemical signals, similar to how brain cells respond to neurotransmitters (神经递质) during learning. In response, the non-brain cells activated a “memory gene”— the same gene that brain cells use for detecting patterns and restructure their connections to form memories. To monitor this process, the researchers engineered the cells to produce a fluorescent protein, allowing them to track when the memory gene was turned on or off. The results showed that these cells could detect repeated chemical signals, similar to neurotransmitter bursts in the brain, rather than extended ones. This mirrors how brain cells register learning with spaced breaks instead of learning everything all at once. When signals were spaced out, the “memory gene” was activated more strongly and for a longer time than when delivered all at once. “This reflects the massed-spaced effect,” says Kukushkin, a clinical associate professor at NYU. “It shows that repeated learning is a fundamental property of all cells.” “This discovery opens new doors for understanding how memory works and could lead to better ways to enhance learning and treat memory-related issues,” observes Kukushkin. “It also suggests that in the future, we may need to treat our body like the brain, considering how systems such as digestion or cancer cells ‘remember’ patterns to regulate blood sugar or respond to the pattern of cancer treatment. ” 25．What does the massed-spaced effect illustrate? A．The brain stores memory during deep sleep. B．Spacing learning over time improves memory. C．Memory is stored only when repeated continuously. D．Learning everything in one session reduces memory. 26．What does the underlined phrase “fluorescent protein” refer to? A．A neurotransmitter produced by brain cells. B．A type of chemical signal released by cells. C．A protein found only in brain-related research. D．A substance that indicates active memory genes. 27．What can be learned from the research in paragraph 3? A．All cells possess the basic characteristic of repeated learning. B．Cells do not respond to chemical signals during learning. C．Intensive learning is more effective than spaced learning. D．The brain only uses extended bursts of neurotransmitters. 28．What could be a suitable title for this article? A．Exploring Memory Function in the Brain. B．The Role of Non-Brain Cells in Memory Storage. C．How Brain Cells Detect Patterns during Learning. D．The Impact of Chemical Signals on Memory Formation. 【答案】25．B 26．D 27．A 28．B 【导语】本文是一篇科学报道。文章讲述了纽约大学的研究发现，不仅脑细胞，身体其他部位的细胞也能存储记忆。这一发现为理解记忆功能以及治疗记忆相关疾病提供了新的视角。 25．细节理解题。根据第一段中的“The research aimed to explore whether non-brain cells contribute to memory by applying the massed-spaced effect — a principle suggesting that information is remembered better when learned over multiple periods rather than through intensive study in a single session.(该研究旨在探索非脑细胞是否通过应用密集间隔效应（mass -spaced effect）来促进记忆——这一原理表明，多期学习比单次集中学习能更好地记住信息)”可知，密集间隔效应说明，信息在分多次学习时比在单次集中学习时更容易被记住。由此可知，随着时间的推移，间隔学习可以提高记忆力。故选B。 26．词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句“To monitor this process, the researchers engineered the cells to produce a fluorescent protein, allowing them to track when the memory gene was turned on or off.( 为了监测这一过程，研究人员对细胞进行了改造，使其产生一种fluorescent protein，从而使它们能够跟踪记忆基因何时开启或关闭)”可知，fluorescent protein是一种用于追踪记忆基因激活或关闭状态的物质。故选D。 27．细节理解题。根据第三段中的““This reflects the massed-spaced effect,” says Kukushkin, a clinical associate professor at NYU. “It shows that repeated learning is a fundamental property of all cells.”(“这反映了密集间隔效应，”纽约大学临床副教授库库什金说。“这表明重复学习是所有细胞的基本特性。”)”可知，重复学习是所有细胞的基本特性。故选A。 28．主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“Research reveals that not only brain cells, but also cells from other body parts, can store memories.(研究表明，不仅脑细胞，身体其他部位的细胞也能储存记忆)”及全文内容可知，文章讲述了纽约大学的研究发现，不仅脑细胞，身体其他部位的细胞也能存储记忆，这一发现为理解记忆功能以及治疗记忆相关疾病提供了新的视角。由此可知，The Role of Non-Brain Cells in Memory Storage(非脑细胞在记忆储存中的作用)适合作本文最佳标题。故选B。 （八） （2025届陕西省西安市新城区西安中学一模）Elon Musk has offered a prize of $100m for the best carbon capture proposal. I can save his committee a lot of time. The money should go to Peter Wohlleben, whose book The Hidden Life of Trees was the most encouraging blockbuster of 2015. Wohlleben’s idea is this: do nothing about trees. Stop fiddling with them, thinking that we can deal with climate change better than nature. If we fiddle, our Romes will burn. The Hidden Life of Trees argued that trees are social. It shows that they can be our saviors. But it’s terribly hard to let ourselves be saved. We think we can be the authors of our salvation (拯救). Of course, there are things we could and should be doing, but in terms of forestry practice, often what’s billed as part of the solution is part of the problem. Anyone who has planted a tree in their garden knows that it has a far-reaching effect — it makes your garden cooler in summer and warmer in winter. Forests cool by transpiring (蒸发). If there’s no water, there’s no cooling. Drought can kill trees fast, but trees have many ways of dealing with it, and Wohlleben sets them out. As a species, we have survived many climatic changes by changing our behavior — and that’s how trees survive, too. Trees learn from their past harms and produce younger ones programmed with those lessons. They regulate their growth by changing the rate at which they drip (点滴)-feed them with sugar solution through root networks. Deciduous (落叶的) forests in particular remove greenhouse gases effectively as long as they live. Cut them down and burn them and you’re releasing carbon dioxide not just from the wood, but also from the forest floor. Deciduous trees are not “harvest-ready” at 200 years: they are teenagers. We must interrogate comforting expressions such as “renewable energy”, and learn the real cost of our toilet paper. If we don’t learn to do nothing about trees, they will eventually be alone anyway—but without us. Wohlleben brilliantly and readably shows us how urgent and how hard it is to do nothing. 29．What does Wohlleben suggest for carbon capture? A．Fight climate change. B．Leave trees alone. C．Save the earth. D．Change forestry species. 30．How do trees survive the drought? A．They slow their growth. B．They lose all their leaves. C．They stop absorbing water. D．They get help from humans. 31．What can we infer from the text? A．We can cope with climate change successfully. B．Trees can adjust their growth by themselves. C．It is hard to stop releasing carbon dioxide. D．It is urgent to regulate the growth of trees. 32．What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A．To illustrate the carbon capture system. B．To give an account of the survival of trees. C．To clarify a proposal for a reward. D．To recommend a book. 【答案】29．B 30．A 31．B 32．D 【导语】本文是一篇书评。作者评论了彼得·沃勒本的书《树的隐秘生活》。 29．细节理解题。根据第一段“Elon Musk has offered a prize of $100m for the best carbon capture proposal.( 埃隆·马斯克为最佳碳捕获方案提供了1亿美元的奖金)”；“The money should go to Peter Wohlleben(钱应该给彼得·沃勒本)”和“Wohlleben’s idea is this: do nothing about trees.( Wohlleben的想法是：只有树木)”可知，对与碳捕获，Wohlleben建议仅留下树木。故选B。 30．细节理解题。根据第三段“As a species, we have survived many climatic changes by changing our behaviour — and that’s how trees survive, too.(作为一个物种，我们通过改变我们的行为在许多气候变化中幸存下来——这也是树木生存的方式)”和“They regulate their growth by changing the rate at which they drip (点滴)-feed them with sugar solution through root networks.(它们通过改变滴水的速度来调节自己的生长——通过根部网络给它们喂食糖溶液)”可知，树木通过减慢生长速度度过干旱时期。故选A。 31．推理判断题。根据第三段“Trees learn from their past harms and produce younger ones programmed with those lessons. They regulate their growth by changing the rate at which they drip (点滴)-feed them with sugar solution through root networks.(树木从过去的伤害中吸取教训，并根据这些教训生出更年轻的树。它们通过改变滴水的速度来调节自己的生长——通过根部网络给它们喂食糖溶液)”可知，树木可以自己调节生长。故选B。 32．推理判断题。根据第一段“The money should go to Peter Wohlleben, whose book The Hidden Life of Trees was the most encouraging blockbuster (一鸣惊人) of 2015.(奖金应该颁给彼得·沃勒本，他的书《树的隐秘生活》是2015年最令人鼓舞的大片)”和第二段“The Hidden Life of Trees argued that trees are social. It shows that they can be our saviours.(《树的隐秘生活》认为树是社会性的。这表明他们可以成为我们的救世主)”以及下文内容可知，本文评论了彼得·沃勒本的书《树的隐秘生活》，是为了推荐这本书。故选D。 （九） （2025届陕西省菁师联盟一模）At the end of 2015, Delhi’s air pollution was so alarming that the high court said it was like “living in a gas chamber”. To tackle the problem, inspired by policies adopted in other countries and regions, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal introduced driving restrictions on private vehicles beginning 1 January 2016: Cars with odd and even number plates would be allowed to run on alternate days. But this created a problem of transportation, to which Akshat Mittal found a solution, a website called odd-even. com. It was a neat carpooling fix for thousands of city workers—odd-numbered car owners were matched with even-numbered ones, based on timings, gender, profession and age. They could book a one-way ride or a return journey, using their cars by turns. Quite simple really, but it took a 13-year-old to figure it out. The website got over 30,000 registrations during the first phase alone. As an unusually focused teenager, Akshat doesn’t see himself as any different from other kids. His favorite subjects are mathematics and physics and he loves playing badminton. But rare at his age, the 10th grader sees himself as a “someone who identifies problems and tries to solve them by making products, using technology”. Encouraged by his father, he has been doing basic web programming. “I always wanted to learn new languages”—but it looks like computing is the language of his choice. Now 15, Akshat has come a long way. He sold his website to the ride-sharing app. Orahi in April 2016. Among the youngest entrepreneurs in the world, he is now working on a project called Change My India, a platform for change-makers to connect and solve societal problems. Akshat’s contributions have not been ignored——apart from extensive media coverage, he has been recognized by The Global Education & Leadership Foundation and invited to speak at TEDx and VCCircle. 33．Why did Akshat Mittal set up odd-even. com website? A．To discuss driving restrictions. B．To raise awareness of air pollution. C．To aid with Delhi’s vehicle registration issue. D．To address a transportation problem for city workers. 34．What’s paragraph 2 mainly about? A．Who are qualified for registration. B．Why car owners are matched randomly.

They could book a one-way ride or a return journey, using their cars by turns (这是一个巧妙的拼车解决方案，数千名城市工作者——奇数车牌的车主与偶数车牌的车主根据时间、性别、职业和年龄进行匹配。他们可以预订单程或往返行程，轮流使用车辆)”可推知，本段主要介绍了Akshat的解决方案如何运作。故选C。 35．推理判断题。根据文章第三段“But rare at his age, the 10th grader sees himself as a “someone who identifies problems and tries to solve them by making products, using technology”.(但在他这个年龄，这位十年级学生将自己视为“一个通过技术制造产品来识别问题并尝试解决问题的人”)”可推知，Akshat具有创造性。故选B。 36．推理判断题。根据文章第五段“Akshat’s contributions have not been ignored——apart from extensive media coverage, he has been recognized by The Global Education & Leadership Foundation and invited to speak at TEDx and VCCircle.(Akshat的贡献并未被忽视——除了广泛的媒体报道外，他还获得了全球教育与领导力基金会的认可，并受邀在TEDx和VCCircle上发表演讲) ”可推知，Akshat因其工作而广受赞誉。故选C。 （十） （2025内蒙古自治区赤峰市一模）A Munich art museum worker has been fired for adding one of his own drawings to the collection without permission, which occurred in February. The Pinakothek der Moderne showcases art by Salvador Dali, Pablo Picasso, Nam June Paik and Max Ernst, among many others. The uninvited artist is not named in news accounts; the managers want to discourage others trying the same thing, unless, of course, they’re Banksy. We know only that the unauthorized artwork was 23 by 47 inches. Museums and galleries have limited space and budgets, and often display what they know people want to see. “Sometimes it can feel like it’s the same 25 artists always being exhibited in museums,” Clara Lieu, a former Rhode Island School of Design professor, told us. “I laughed softly when I saw this story,” she added. “It’s an exhibition opportunity that has never crossed my mind.” Nevertheless, she hopes other artists won’t follow with their own unapproved wall hangings, adding “Today, most of the time we look at artworks is on a phone. That makes museums even more important, to create experiences where we can engage with art more deeply. But all artists have a fundamental desire for their artworks to be seen.” I wonder if museums and galleries might consider having Open Wall nights, the way comedy clubs have Open Mic nights. Let people who paint, sculpt, knit, spray-paint, put their work on a real museum wall or base for a night, with permission. An Open Wall night might open a window through which more artists can be spotted and reminds us, too, that creating something with the power to charm, dazzle, or fascinate is not as easy as just hanging art on a wall. 37．What is mentioned about the worker’s artwork? A．It measured 23 by 47 inches. B．It was stolen from the museum. C．It was inspired by Salvador Dali. D．It was modeled after Banksy’s works. 38．What is Clara Lieu’s attitude to the art incident? A．Amused yet disapproving. B．Critical yet sympathetic. C．Indifferent and uncaring. D．Enthusiastic and supportive. 39．What does the author suggest museums and galleries do? A．Display more works of famous artists. B．Encourage artists to create digital artworks. C．Increase their budgets to collect more artworks. D．Offer more space for artists to show their works. 40．What does the article mainly discuss? A．A worker got fired for stealing artworks. B．Artists are frustrated with few shows. C．An incident starts museum-access talks. D．Museums should focus on digital artworks. 【答案】37．A 38．A 39．D 40．C 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了一名工人因未经许可将自己的作品加入慕尼黑现代艺术博物馆收藏而被解雇的事件，并由此引发了对博物馆如何为更多艺术家提供展示机会的讨论，作者建议通过“开放墙之夜”为艺术家创造更多展示空间。 37．细节理解题。根据第二段中“We know only that the unauthorized artwork was 23 by 47 inches. (我们只知道未经授权的艺术品是23英寸×47英寸)”可知，该艺术品尺寸为23英寸×47英寸。故选A项。 38．推理判断题。根据第三段中““I laughed softly when I saw this story,” she added. “It’s an exhibition opportunity that has never crossed my mind.” (“当我看到这个故事时，我轻轻地笑了起来，”她补充说。“这是一个我从未想过的展览机会。”)”第四段中“Nevertheless, she hopes other artists won’t follow with their own unapproved wall hangings (尽管如此，她希望其他艺术家不要效仿，未经批准就将自己的作品挂在墙上)”可知，Clara Lieu因为这个故事而笑起来，但她同时希望其他艺术家不要效仿。由此可知，她觉得这一事件很有趣，但不赞同这种行为。故选A项。 39．细节理解题。根据第五段“I wonder if museums and galleries might consider having Open Wall nights, the way comedy clubs have Open Mic nights. Let people who paint, sculpt, knit, spray-paint, put their work on a real museum wall or base for a night, with permission. (我在想，博物馆和画廊是否可以考虑举办“开放墙之夜”，就像喜剧俱乐部有“开放麦之夜”一样。让那些绘画、雕塑、编织、喷绘的人，在获得许可的情况下，将他们的作品放在博物馆的墙上或底座上展示一晚)”可知，作者建议博物馆和画廊为艺术家提供更多展示空间。故选D项。 40．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“A Munich art museum worker has been fired for adding one of his own drawings to the collection without permission, which occurred in February.

(“开放墙之夜”或许可以打开一扇窗，让更多艺术家被发现，同时也提醒我们，创作出具有魅力、惊艳或吸引力的作品，并不像把艺术品挂在墙上那么简单)”可知，文章主要报道了一名工人因未经许可将自己的作品加入博物馆收藏而被解雇的事件，并由此引发了对博物馆如何为更多艺术家提供展示机会的讨论。故选C项。 （十一） （2025内蒙古自治区赤峰市一模）We all know someone like the ‘know-it-all’, who will enthusiastically lecture you about any topic or area, despite obviously having little to no expertise in what they’re talking about-and often, even though you do. Why would anyone assume superior knowledge to everyone else, about every possible subject matter? There are several quirks of human psychology that help explain this behaviour. One is the phenomenon of ‘naive realism’, which describes how people naturally assume that their perception of the world reflects objective reality. In actuality, everything we perceive and ‘know’ about the world has been filtered through a complex net of cognitive biases (认知偏差), sensory shortcuts and more. Once we encounter people whose understanding of the world is very different to our own, naive realism leads us to assume they are wrong. Another potential cognitive bias at work is ‘The illusion (错觉) of information adequacy’. Put simply, this describes how though many people lack sufficient information to make correct judgements about something, they’ll assume the opposite. It’s logically very hard to recognise and take account of what we don’t know. For example, someone notices their female co-worker running to the bathroom to be sick every morning. Based on just this information, they could conclude “she’s pregnant!” and plan to congratulate her. However, she reveals her sickness is due to chemotherapy (化疗). Since the first person made a conclusion with painfully insufficient evidence, they had the illusion of information adequacy. A combination of illusion of information adequacy and naive realism can make people believe they know more than they actually do. But even then, there’s still clearly more at work. For instance, some psychologists believe that the human brains tend to seek a sense of autonomy also accounts for the ‘know-it-all’ phenomenon. Besides, the pursuit of social status may drive the ‘know-it-all’ people to keep their superiority and dominance as well. Thus, the contradiction emerges: to become a ‘know-it-all’, you have to know far too little. 41．According to the passage, people with “naive realism” likely_____. A．think their perception is always right B．quickly change their world view C．have complex cognitive biases D．respect others’ different views 42．Why does the author mention the example of the female co-worker? A．To show how people make correct judgments. B．To illustrate “illusion of information adequacy”. C．To clarify the link between pregnancy and chemotherapy. D．To explain the importance of having sufficient information. 43．How does the pursuit of social status influence “know-it-all” behavior? A．It has no direct connection. B．It urges theme to learn more. C．It encourages more modesty. D．It forces them to seek authority. 44．What does the author imply by the underlined words? A．People with a lot of knowledge are less likely to be “know-it-all”. B．“Know-it-all” actually have vast amounts of knowledge but don’t show it. C．The more knowledge one has, the more likely they are to be “know-it-all”. D．There is no relationship between knowledge amount and being “know-it-all”. 【答案】41．A 42．B 43．D 44．A 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了“万事通”现象背后的心理机制，特别是“朴素现实主义”和“信息充足错觉”等认知偏差如何导致人们错误地认为自己无所不知。 41．细节理解题。根据第二段“One is the phenomenon of ‘naive realism’, which describes how people naturally assume that their perception of the world reflects objective reality.(“朴素现实主义”描述的是人们如何自然地认为自己对世界的感知反映了客观现实)”可知，拥有“朴素现实主义”的人倾向于认为自己的感知总是正确的。故选A。 42．推理判断题。根据第四段“For example, someone notices their female co-worker running to the bathroom to be sick every morning. Based on just this information, they could conclude “she’s pregnant!” and plan to congratulate her. However, she reveals her sickness is due to chemotherapy (化疗).(例如，有人注意到他们的女同事每天早上都跑去卫生间呕吐。仅凭这一信息，他们可能会得出结论“她怀孕了!”并计划祝贺她。然而，她透露她的呕吐是由于化疗)”可推知，作者提到这个例子是为了说明“信息充足错觉”。故选B。 43．细节理解题。根据第五段“Besides, the pursuit of social status may drive the ‘know-it-all’ people to keep their superiority and dominance as well.(此外，追求社会地位可能也会驱使“万事通”们保持他们的优越感和支配地位)”可推知，追求社会地位会迫使“万事通”们寻求权威。故选D。 44．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Thus, the contradiction emerges: to become a ‘know-it-all’, you have to know far too little.”(因此，矛盾出现了：要成为“万事通”，你必须知道得太少)”可推知，作者暗示拥有大量知识的人不太可能成为“万事通”。故选A。 （十二） （2025届内蒙古阿拉善盟高三下学期一模）After 25 years at Mumsnet, the UK’s most popular website for parents, I thought I’d seen it all with big tech, but Google’s push to change UK copyright law for uncompensated content scraping (抓 取) left me stunned. We’ve experienced the direct impact of this, launching the first British legal action against OpenAI for scraping our content — likely for training its large language model (LLM) — without approval, a clear copyright violation (侵权). You might wonder why using online content for AI training is a problem, given Google’s data collection for search purpose since the dawn of the Internet. When websites allow Google to access their data, they receive a clear return on investment: the heightened search traffic that originates from being listed in Google’s search rankings. In contrast, AI training is building models such as ChatGPT to provide the answers to any prospective questions, and that will mean people no longer need to go elsewhere for solutions. And it is building those models with illegally scraped content from the very websites it is ready to replace. Allowing the AI companies to simply steal content isn’t just unfair to publishers who see no reward for the work they put in, or the risks they take, it’s also an existing threat to them and eventually counterproductive. If publishers disappear because the AIs have swept up all their traffic, then who’s left to produce the content to feed the AI models? Mumsnet is fortunate to be in a stronger position than many, as much of our traffic is direct, not search-engine driven. An AI chatbot can give a “Mumsnet-style” answer to a parenting question, but they’ll never be as funny about parking wars, and they’ll never offer the emotional support that helps around 1,000 women leave abusive partners each year. But if these trillion-dollar giants are allowed to exploit content producers, and get away with it, they will destroy many of them, and all the jobs dependent on them. 45．What does the underlined word “traffic” in Paragraph 2 mean? A．Flow of information. B．Engine of websites. C．Function of chatbot. D．Model of AI training. 46．What’s the ultimate effect of using unpaid content? A．Innovation in language models. B．Rejection of AI-generated data. C．Decline of content supply. D．Wider accessibility to websites. 47．What gives Mumsnet an advantage over AI chatbots? A．It boasts strong search function. B．It covers a wide range of human concerns. C．It features humanized interaction. D．It has a distinctive question-and-answer style. 48．What’s the purpose of the text? A．To explore AI’s role in future content creation. B．To advocate the acceptance of content scraping. C．To voice worries over tech giant’s misuse of content. D．To discuss the cooperation of tech giants and publishers. 【答案】45．A 46．C 47．C 48．C 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述了作者对科技巨头未经许可抓取内容用于AI训练的担忧。 45．词句猜测题。由文章第二段中“When websites allow Google to access their data, they receive a clear return on investment: the heightened search traffic that originates from being listed in Google’s search rankings. (当网站允许谷歌访问其数据时，它们能获得明确的投资回报：因在谷歌搜索排名中被列出而带来的traffic)”可知，当网站允许谷歌访问其数据时，它们会获得明确的投资回报：由于被列入谷歌搜索排名而带来的搜索流量增加。因此，traffic在此处的意思是“流量”，即网站访问者的数量或信息流动的量，Flow of information“信息流”意思相符。故选A。 46．细节理解题。由文章第三段中“Allowing the AI companies to simply steal content isn’t just unfair to publishers who see no reward for the work they put in, or the risks they take, it’s also an existing threat to them and eventually counterproductive.  If publishers disappear because the AIs have swept up all their traffic, then who’s left to produce the content to feed the AI models? (允许人工智能公司简单地窃取内容不仅对出版商不公平，因为他们认为自己投入的工作没有回报，或者他们承担的风险，这对他们来说也是一种现有的威胁，最终会适得其反。如果出版商因为人工智能席卷了他们所有的流量而消失，那么谁还会为人工智能模型提供内容呢？)”可知，最终的效果是内容供应的减少。故选C。 47．细节理解题。由文章第四段中“An AI chatbot can give a “Mumsnet-style” answer to a parenting question, but they’ll never be as funny about parking wars, and they’ll never offer the emotional support that helps around 1,000 women leave abusive partners each year. (人工智能聊天机器人可以给出一个“Mumsnet风格”的育儿问题答案，但它们永远不会像我们的用户那样，对停车纠纷吐槽得那么有趣，也永远无法提供那种每年帮助约1000名女性摆脱虐待性伴侣的情感支持)”可知，Mumsnet相对于AI聊天机器人的优势在于它提供了人性化的互动和情感支持。故选C。 48．推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是由文章倒数第二段“Allowing the AI companies to simply steal content isn’t just unfair to publishers who see no reward for the work they put in, or the risks they take, it’s also an existing threat to them and eventually counterproductive. If publishers disappear because the AIs have swept up all their traffic, then who’s left to produce the content to feed the AI models? (允许人工智能公司肆意窃取内容，这不仅对那些投入了精力、承担了风险却没有得到任何回报的内容发布商不公平，而且对他们来说，这是一个切实存在的威胁，最终还会适得其反。如果内容发布商因为人工智能抢走了他们所有的流量而消失，那么还有谁来创作内容，为人工智能模型提供数据呢？)”可知，文章主要讲述了作者对于科技巨头未经许可抓取内容用于AI训练的担忧，认为这种行为对内容生产者不公平，且最终会导致内容供应的减少。因此，文章的目的是表达对于科技巨头滥用内容的担忧。故选C。 （十三） （2025届青海省西宁市大通县一模）A New Hampshire woman has raised nearly $400, 000 for an elderly disabled man named Donald, who has been battling to keep up with bills while caring for his wife. The story began when Jenelle encountered Donald at a pawn (典当) shop in Manchester, where he was unwillingly pawning jewelry to cover his bills. Donald shared with Jenelle the hardships he was facing: His rent had increased, and he was finding it increasingly difficult to make the pot boil while caring for his wife. He feared they might lose their home and that his beloved wife could end up in a care facility due to their financial pressure. Deeply moved by his situation, Jenelle immediately took action. She gathered $1, 300 from her own savings and contributions from friends and family to help the 90-year-old. A video she shared of Donald receiving the money quickly went viral, recording the moment he called Jenelle “a hero”. The outpouring of support didn’t stop there. Jenelle set up a GoFundMe page for Donald, and the response flooded in. Donations poured in from around the world, bringing the total to nearly $400, 000. In an update, Jenelle shared the emotional moment she told Donald about the incredible generosity of strangers. “I told him it meant that everyone in the world was seeing this and stepping forward to donate,” she said. “Even before I told him the amount, he was already extremely emotional and couldn’t believe the kindness of strangers across the world.” Despite the outpouring of support, Donald remained humble, insisting he didn’t deserve it and that he was just an ordinary man. But as Jenelle explained to him, he’s much more than that to the countless people who have been touched by his story. Jenelle plans to keep the fundraiser open until she and Donald can meet with an agent to ensure the money is safely managed. This remarkable act of kindness shows how the generosity of strangers can transform lives, offering hope and security to those who need it most. 49．What is Donald’s difficulty? A．Pawning his jewelry. B．Renting a house. C．Making ends meet. D．Managing his movement. 50．What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A．How Jenelle started the movement. B．Hardships Donald and Jenelle shared.

She gathered $1, 300 from her own savings and contributions from friends and family to help the 90-year-old. A video she shared of Donald receiving the money quickly went viral, recording the moment he called Jenelle “a hero”.(杰内尔被他的处境深深打动，立即采取了行动。她从自己的积蓄和朋友家人的捐款中筹集了1300美元来帮助这位90岁的老人。她分享的一段唐纳德收到钱的视频迅速走红，记录下了他称杰内尔为“英雄”的那一刻)”可知，第二段主要讲的是杰内尔是如何发起这场筹集善款运动的。故选A。 51．推理判断题。根据第三段“Jenelle set up a GoFundMe page for Donald, and the response flooded in. Donations poured in from around the world, bringing the total to nearly $400, 000.(杰内尔为唐纳德设立了一个GoFundMe页面，响应如潮。来自世界各地的捐款纷至沓来，总额达到近40万美元)”可知，建立GoFundMe之后的捐款是大量的。故选B。 52．推理判断题。根据第三段“Donations poured in from around the world, bringing the total to nearly $400, 000.(来自世界各地的捐款纷至沓来，总额达到近40万美元)”和最后一段“This remarkable act of kindness shows how the generosity of strangers can transform lives, offering hope and security to those who need it most.(这一非凡的善举表明，陌生人的慷慨如何改变生活，为最需要的人带来希望和安全)”可知，来自世界各地的很多人都为唐纳德捐了款，大家的共同努力筹集了巨额善款，帮助了唐纳德，这说明众人拾柴火焰高。故选B。 （十四） （2025届四川名优校联盟高三下学期一模）It was while touring Mississippi that John Ingall first spotted the plant that would change his life: the hardshell gourd (葫芦), a squash-like fruit with a thick, woody skin. After that, he saw them almost everywhere he went: carved gourds in porches, hanging gourds, gourds reimagined as lanterns and bird boxes. “I developed an interest,” Ingall says. Ingall worked for 45 years as a farmer, but had never seen fruit turned into art before, nor considered himself in the least bit artistic. “I was so involved with farming, I didn’t have time to be. But I thought, ‘I’ll try it.’” When he returned to his farm in Warwickshire, Ingall planted a few among the tomatoes. In no time, the vines had grown to 6ft tall. Walking through the tunnel some weeks later, he parted the foliage and was surprised to see some enormous fruit growing. Ingall grew up in the Kent countryside, and knew from childhood that he wanted to be a farmer. His father was a banker, his mother a housewife. “They were very against me going into farming,” he says. But Ingall was set on the idea: “I had a pretty romantic idea of what it would be like farming and living in the countryside.” Over that period, Ingall’s establishment evolved gradually through 15 years of intensive dairy farming to less intensive beef farming, then organic farming and now, to rewilding. “I don’t really enjoy surprises. I like things to progress steadily.” he says. Yet his gourds have empowered him to surprise himself. “I’d like to introduce gourd art to more people here. It’s a form with great potential.” Ingall started by making lanterns, and now incorporates (包含) stained glass into the shells. He also creates what are known as thunder gourds: “Fix a drum skin to it, and when you shake it, it makes a sound like thunder. People come to our open studio, see a gourd hanging and don’t know what it is. Then I shake it — and jaws drop.” As well as selling gourds through his personal studio, Ingall markets them at art fairs, donating profits to fight the climate crisis. “It’s very fulfilling. Gourds are an entirely sustainable canvas for many types of art.” he says. 53．What did Ingall find during his Mississippi tour? A．A new plant native to the city. B．An innovative farming method. C．The city’s art environments. D．Gourds turned into works of art. 54．What do we know about Ingall as a farmer? A．He became rich by farming. B．He improved the crop variety. C．He liked change in a controlled way. D．He was grateful to his parents’ opposition. 55．What was special about Ingall’s gourd art? A．It can surprise people. B．It is environment-themed. C．It is for personal collection. D．It will be put on the market. 56．What is the passage mainly about? A．A new art gaining global popularity. B．A profitable plant with a potential market. C．A farmer who turned a crop into works of art. D．An artist with an environmental consciousness. 【答案】53．D 54．C 55．A 56．C 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了农民John Ingall如何将硬壳葫芦转化为艺术品，并发展出独特的艺术形式的故事。 53．细节理解题。根据文章第1段的“After that, he saw them almost everywhere he went: carved gourds in porches, hanging gourds, gourds reimagined as lanterns and bird boxes.(从那以后，他所到之处几乎都能看到它们：门廊上雕刻的葫芦、悬挂的葫芦、被改造成灯笼和鸟箱的葫芦。)”可推知，Ingall在密西西比州旅行时发现了被制成艺术品的葫芦。故选D。 54．推理判断题。根据文章第5段““I don’t really enjoy surprises. I like things to progress steadily.” he says.(“我真的不喜欢惊喜。我喜欢事情稳步发展。”他说。)”以及他对农业经营方式的逐步调整（从乳制品养殖到有机农业再到生态恢复）可推知，他喜欢在可控范围内进行改变。故选C。 55．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的“Then I shake it — and jaws drop(然后我摇晃它——人们会惊讶得张大嘴巴)”以及倒数第三段提到的“Yet his gourds have empowered him to surprise himself.(然而，他的葫芦赋予了他惊喜。)”让自己感到惊喜可推知，他的葫芦艺术具有令人惊喜的特点。故选A。 56．主旨大意题。根据文章第1段“It was while touring Mississippi that John Ingall first spotted the plant that would change his life: the hardshell gourd (葫芦), a squash-like fruit with a thick, woody skin.(在密西西比州旅行时，约翰·英格尔第一次发现了改变他生活的植物：硬壳葫芦，一种南瓜状的水果，有厚厚的木质表皮。)”以及后续对其艺术创作的详细描述可推知，全文围绕Ingall如何将硬壳葫芦从普通农作物转变为艺术品展开，重点描述了他的创作过程、艺术形式的变化以及推广方式。因此推断本文主要讲述一位农民将农作物转化为艺术品的故事。故选C。 （十五） （2025届四川省巴中中学高三下学期一模）“Being overly logical and rational is the wrong way to make important life decisions,” says Michael Puett in his class, after a student asks how to deal with the issues at the crossroads of life. “Decisions are made from the heart. In Chinese, ‘mind’ and ‘heart’ are inseparable. We would make better decisions when we let our rational and emotional sides blend (融合) into one.” Puett is one of the scholars who teach students ancient Chinese philosophy at Harvard University. Puett has seen more students who are feeling pushed onto a very specific path towards very concrete career goals. Thus, he set up the course and helped the college students struggling to find their place in the world figure out how to have a good life and create a good society. His course has gone viral among the Harvard students. One of Puett’s former students, Adam Mitchell, attracted by Chinese philosophy, was once at a loss. During that time, majors related to finance and economics were quite popular. Few students would choose humanities. Adam had intended to major in economics. But after his introduction to the professor’s course, he chose to follow his own heart and study Chinese, and knew what his life goal was. Puett believes we should train ourselves to be ‘spontaneous’ (率性的) in daily life, much like practicing the piano to play effortlessly, instead of relying only on rational decision-making. At the end of each class, Puett challenges his students to put the Chinese philosophy into practice in their everyday lives. “I’m not trying to give my students really big advice. Instead, I just want to give them a sense of what they can do daily to transform how they live.” 57．What is Puett’s suggestion for decision-making? A．Follow rules and guidelines. B．Integrate heart and mind. C．Depend on reason and logic. D．Rely on emotions and feelings. 58．Why does Puett teach students Chinese philosophy? A．To spread Chinese culture. B．To make students more rational. C．To make his course popular. D．To offer guidance for a better life. 59．Why does the author mention Adam Mitechell? A．To show Puett’s influence on students. B．To recommend Puett’s course to others. C．To explain the struggles in philosophy. D．To inspire major changes in students. 60．What does the last paragraph mainly talk about? A．Students’ learning process. B．Practical daily tasks. C．Puett’s teaching approach. D．After-class assignments. 【答案】57．B 58．D 59．A 60．C 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，介绍了哈佛教授 Michael Puett 如何通过教授中国哲学帮助学生做出更好的决定，并通过学生 Adam Mitchell 的故事展示其影响力。 57．细节理解题。根据第一段“Decisions are made from the heart. In Chinese, ‘mind’ and ‘heart’ are inseparable.(决定是发自内心的。在汉语中，“脑”和“心”是不可分割的)”可知，Puett强调在决策时要将理性和情感结合，即“心智合一”。故选B。 58．细节理解题。根据第二段“Thus, he set up the course and helped the college students struggling to find their place in the world figure out how to have a good life and create a good society.(因此，他开设了这门课程，帮助那些努力寻找自己在世界上的位置的大学生们了解如何过上美好的生活，创造一个美好的社会)” 可知，Puett教授中国哲学是为了帮助学生找到更好的生活方向，故选D。 59．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“One of Puett’s former students, Adam Mitchell, attracted by Chinese philosophy, was once at a loss. During that time, majors related to finance and economics were quite popular. Few students would choose humanities. Adam had intended to major in economics. But after his introduction to the professor’s course, he chose to follow his own heart and study Chinese, and knew what his life goal was.(皮特以前的学生Adam Mitchell被中国哲学所吸引，一度不知所措。在那个时候，与金融和经济相关的专业非常受欢迎。很少有学生会选择人文学科。亚当本打算主修经济学。但在教授的课程介绍之后，他选择了跟随自己的心，学习中文，并且知道了自己的人生目标是什么)”可知，文章通过 Adam Mitchell 的经历，说明他因 Puett 的课程改变了专业选择，说明Puett对学生的影响。故选A。 60．主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Puett believes we should train ourselves to be ‘spontaneous’ (率性的) in daily life, much like practicing the piano to play effortlessly, instead of relying only on rational decision-making. At the end of each class, Puett challenges his students to put the Chinese philosophy into practice in their everyday lives. “I’m not trying to give my students really big advice. Instead, I just want to give them a sense of what they can do daily to transform how they live.”(Puett认为，我们应该在日常生活中训练自己“顺其自然”，就像练习钢琴一样毫不费力地演奏，而不是仅仅依靠理性的决策。在每节课结束时，Puett都会挑战他的学生，让他们在日常生活中实践中国哲学。“我并不是想给我的学生什么大建议。相反，我只是想让他们知道，他们每天可以做些什么来改变他们的生活方式。”)” 可知，这一段介绍了 Puett 的教学方法，即让学生在日常生活中实践哲学。故选C。 （十六） （2025届四川省巴中中学一模）In today’s fast-paced world, joy can often feel hard to find. However, Zadie Smith offers a refreshing perspective on the concept of joy and its significance in our lives, in her essay Joy. Through a blend of personal anecdotes, literary references, and thought-provoking insights, Smith explores the complexities of joy and its relationship to happiness. Smith explores the definition and perception of joy, distinguishing it from happiness, which originates from internal contentment rather than external circumstances. She finds joy in small pleasures of life, such as interactions with a child or observing daily routines. While society often views joy as short-lived or shallow, prioritizing grand achievements and material pursuits, Smith challenges this notion, arguing that joy in simple things significantly enhances our well-being. One of the key aspects of Smith’s essay is her exploration of the role of literature in capturing and conveying joy. She claims that by immersing ourselves in the stories and experiences of others, we can broaden our horizons and find joy in the shared human experience. This insight emphasizes the importance of storytelling and the arts in fostering a sense of joy and connection in society. Smith also digs into how identity shapes our understanding of joy, reflecting on her multicultural background and its influence on her views. She highlights how joy is often rooted in cultural legacy and individual experiences, emphasizing the value of embracing diverse identities. Furthermore, Smith examines the role of community and social connections in fostering joy. She argues that joy is often connected with our relationships and the sense of belonging we get from them. Sharing laughter or celebrating together with others can make our joy stronger and build a sense of community.

I’ve been studying the language on and off for only a few years, and I’m far from fluent. But there I was, pronouncing each character just as a native speaker would. “My favorite food is sushi,” I said — wo zui xihuan de shiwu shi shousi. I’d created the video using software from a Los Angeles-based artificial-intelligence start-up called HeyGen. The technology, which only needs a single selfie and a script to generate deepfake videos of real people “saying” almost anything, is a testament (证明) to the advancements in AI language tools. This got me thinking about the declining interest in language learning with fewer students enrolling in foreign language courses and the decrease of English proficiency among young people in some places. AI translation, integrated into social media and messaging platforms, seems to be everywhere. Even language-learning apps are using AI-generated content in their marketing. However, language translation is an art rather than a science. Something enormous will be lost in exchange for that convenience. As Anne, a Chinese translator said, “Building a ladder between widely different languages, such as Chinese and English, is sometimes as difficult as a doctor building a bridge in a patient’s heart,” Language learning fosters cultural competency, a skill that AI cannot simply copy. Learning a different way to speak, read, and write helps people discover new ways to see the world. No machine can replace such a profoundly human experience. Deborah Cohn, a language professor, emphasizes that language learning is actually about understanding and connecting with different cultures; Instead of abandoning language courses in favor of AI, some educators advocate for emphasizing the intercultural aspects of language learning. Paula Krebs of the MLA points out that even with a “universal translator”, sometimes, the greater meaning of people’s utterance (言辞) remains a mystery. In essence, while AI language tools offer convenience, they lack the depth and cultural insight that comes from human language learning. The challenge and beauty of learning a language are in understanding the cultural tapestry (织锦) that weaves through words, something AI has yet to achieve. 65．Why does the author give the example in paragraph 1? A．To promote the language software. B．To show off his Chinese language skills. C．To prove learning a language is a wasted effort. D．To encourage critical thinking about AI language tools. 66．What can we learn from paragraph 3? A．AI translation deserves more attention. B．Language apps play a key role in marketing. C．Language translation is far beyond technology. D．Learning a different language is an uphill battle. 67．What is the key benefit of learning a language according to the passage? A．Better digital literacy. B．Improved translation skills. C．Deeper cultural confidence. D．Effective intercultural interaction. 68．What does the author imply in the last paragraph? A．AI language tools offer convenience. B．AI facilitates language learning in terms of culture. C．AI is far from perfect in helping language understanding. D．AI has achieved success in the development of language learning tools. 【答案】65．D 66．C 67．D 68．C 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了人工智能语言工具的便利性与语言学习的文化深度之间的差异，作者引导我们对人工智能语言工具进行批判性思考然后得出结论：人工智能在帮助语言理解方面远非完美。 65．推理判断题。由文章第一段“A few days ago, I watched a video of myself talking in perfect Chinese. I’ve been studying the language on and off for only a few years, and I’m far from fluent. But there I was, pronouncing each character just as a native speaker would. ‘My favorite food is sushi,’ I said — wo zui xihuan de shiwu shi shousi.(几天前，我看了一段我自己说一口流利汉语的视频。我断断续续地学习这门语言才几年，还远谈不上流利。但我就这样，每个字的发音就像母语人士一样。‘我最喜欢的食物是寿司，’我说——我最喜欢吃寿司。)”以及下文，尤其是最后一段中“In essence, while AI language tools offer convenience, they lack the depth and cultural insight that comes from human language learning.(从本质上讲，虽然人工智能语言工具提供了便利，但它们缺乏人类语言学习所带来的深度和文化洞察力。)”可知，文章第一段以作者自己的体验引出AI语言工具，然后鼓励对AI语言工具进行批判性思考。故选D项。 66．推理判断题。由文章第三段中“However, language translation is an art rather than a science. Something enormous will be lost in exchange for that convenience.(然而，语言翻译是一门艺术，而不是一门科学。为了换取这种便利，将失去一些巨大的东西。)”以及“Building a ladder between widely different languages, such as Chinese and English, is sometimes as difficult as a doctor building a bridge in a patient’s heart,(在广泛不同的语言（如中文和英文）之间建立一个阶梯，有时就像医生在病人心中架起一座桥梁一样困难，)”可知，语言翻译并不是技术能解决的问题，它远远超出了技术范畴。故选C项。 67．细节理解题。由文章第四段中“Deborah Cohn, a language professor, emphasizes that language learning is actually about understanding and connecting with different cultures; Instead of abandoning language courses in favor of Al, some educators advocate for emphasizing the intercultural aspects of language learning. (语言教授黛博拉·科恩强调，语言学习实际上是关于理解和联系不同的文化；一些教育工作者主张强调语言学习的跨文化方面，而不是放弃语言课程而选择人工智能。)”可知，学习语言的主要好处是有效的跨文化互动。故选D项。 68．推理判断题。由文章最后一段“In essence, while AI language tools offer convenience, they lack the depth and cultural insight that comes from human language learning. The challenge and beauty of learning a language are in understanding the cultural tapestry(织锦)that weaves through words, something AI has yet to achieve.(本质上，虽然人工智能语言工具提供了便利，但它们缺乏人类语言学习的深度和文化洞察力。学习一门语言的挑战和美妙之处在于理解通过单词编织的文化挂毯，这是人工智能尚未实现的。)”可知，作者在最后一段表明人工智能在帮助语言理解方面远非完美，因为人工智能语言工具缺乏人类语言学习的深度和文化洞察力。故选C项。 1 / 37 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
