He had already had his first show at a local arts hub, showcasing his series titled Dispositions, charcoal sketches of the human body as a metaphor for his own transformation during adolescence. Yet he wanted more-specifically to start showing his work in a juried exhibition (评审展览), where art experts would evaluate and select pieces in a competitive review process. That’s when he hit an obstacle, discovering that the minimum age for submission was 18. That rejection stimulates his creation. “There was a void in the art world, and I thought it’d be really cool if I could provide the opportunity for more young artists,” says Nalin, now 15. With the support of his parents, Nalin founded in 2023 Little ‘EGG Gallery, a commercial studio specially for underage artists. The gallery, which is now profitable enough to break even, charges a small hanging fee for any displayed work and takes a 15 percent commission fee on sales. In turn, Little EGG helps promote young talents by showcasing their work. Not long after opening, Ontario College of Art and Design University professor and artist David Griffin stumbled upon the gallery while taking a casual walk with his wife in their neighbourhood. An exhibition was being installed at the time, and some of Nalin’s own work was on the walls. Upon meeting Nalin, Griffin says he understood that he was speaking with someone special: “a strong young artist with a really excellent idea, which was to provide a space for showing the local community the easy, natural genius of young people.” A connection was formed, and Nalin asked Griffin to help judge an upcoming competition. The first juried show was last spring, and the top three winners each received a $50 cash prize. Five-year-old Jack Gamble won for his abstract painting titled Pokemon. 4. What mainly drove Nalin to start Little EGG Gallery? A. The support of his parents. B. The desire to create his own studio. C. The wish to offer young artists chances. D. The approval from the local community. 5. What does the underlined phrase “stumbled upon” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Withdrew from. B. Came across. C. Looked around. D. Headed for. 6. Which of the following best describes Nalin Kamat? A. Patient and humble. B. Determined and sympathetic. C. Competitive and cooperative. D. Creative and devoted. 7. What can we learn from David Griffin’s words? A. Nalin’s uniqueness impressed him a lot. B. Nalin’s idea received wide recognition. C. Nalin’s platform boosted young artists’ creativity. D. Nalin’s efforts brought about the neighborhood unity. 【答案】4. C 5. B 6. D 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了Nalin Kamat创立Little EGG Gallery为年轻艺术家提供展示机会的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段““There was a void in the art world, and I thought it’d be really cool if I could provide the opportunity for more young artists,” says Nalin, now 15. (“艺术界存在一个空白，我想如果我能为更多年轻艺术家提供机会，那将非常酷，”现年15岁的Nalin说)”可知，为年轻艺术家提供机会的愿望驱使Nalin创办了Little EGG Gallery。故选C。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段“Not long after opening, Ontario College of Art and Design University professor and artist David Griffin stumbled upon the gallery while taking a casual walk with his wife in their neighbourhood. (开业不久，安大略艺术设计大学教授兼艺术家David Griffin在与妻子在附近散步时stumbled upon这个画廊)”可知，David Griffin和妻子在附近散步，推测他们是偶然发现了这个画廊，划线短语stumbled upon意为“偶然发现”，与Came across意思相近。故选B。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“By the time Nalin Kamat was 13, the Toronto teen was well on his way to becoming a working artist. (当Nalin Kamat 13岁时，这位多伦多少年就已经踏上了成为一名职业艺术家的道路)”以及第三段“With the support of his parents, Nalin founded in 2023 Little ‘EGG Gallery, a commercial studio specially for underage artists.(在父母的支持下，Nalin于2023年创立了Little ‘EGG Gallery，这是一家专门为未成年艺术家打造的商业工作室)”可知，他13岁就踏上了成为一名职业艺术家的道路，并于2023年创办画廊为年轻艺术家提供机会，由此可推知，Nalin Kamat是富有创造力和奉献精神的。故选D。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Upon meeting Nalin, Griffin says he understood that he was speaking with someone special: “a strong young artist with a really excellent idea, which was to provide a space for showing the local community the easy, natural genius of young people.” (在与Nalin会面后，Griffin表示，他明白自己正在与一位特别的人交谈：“一位强大的年轻艺术家，他有一个非常好的想法，那就是为当地社区提供一个展示年轻人轻松、自然天赋的空间。”)”可知，David Griffin认为Nalin是特别的，是强大的年轻艺术家，并且有很好的想法，为年轻艺术家提供展示的机会，由此可推知，Nalin的独特性给David Griffin留下了深刻印象。故选A。 C To find food in the darkness, deep-diving toothed whales rely on their built-in sonar, which bounces soundwaves off potential prey to reveal their location. But to these whales, plastic junk floating in the ocean may also “sound” just like a delicious squid. A new study suggests plastic debris (碎片) like shopping bags bear remarkably similar “echoes” to those of squid-likely due to some combination of their shape, size, degree of weathering, and chemical composition, the authors write. As it spreads in marine environments, it is also showing up in the guts of marine mammals across hundreds of reported cases, damaging their stomach tissues and causing infection, choking, and malnutrition to the point of starvation. Matthew Savoca, a marine biologist at Stanford University says, “They’re in pain, they’re starving, but they think they’re eating.” For the study, published in Marine Pollution Bulletin, Merrill and his colleagues gathered nine plastic items: bags, balloons, and other common trash found in whales from North Carolina beaches. The research team hit the items with sound waves at frequencies that toothed whales use to hunt. They repeated the process on five dead squid bodies provided by the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, as well as five squid beaks taken from a dead sperm whale’s stomach. All plastic items tested, the team found, returned echoes as strong as or stronger than those from the squid. It’s unknown whether deep-diving toothed whales use any means other than echo strength to distinguish food from not-food-but experts doubt it. Mouthfeel certainly doesn’t factor in. “They don’t really chew and taste like us. it’s more like suction,” says Laura Redaelli, a Ph.D student in marine biology. All three experts agree on the need to reduce plastic production in the first place. The ideal approach, Savoca and Merrill say, involves policy changes and redirecting waste streams from the ocean, especially targeting unnecessary single-use items. “Maybe we can hope that, at some point, whales will learn the difference between plastic and prey”, Redaelli says. But until then, “the more plastic we keep putting in, the more animals are going to die.” 8. How do deep-diving toothed whales find food? A. By producing soundwaves to attract prey. B. By using built-in sonar to locate prey in the dark. C. By telling food from not-food through mouthfeel. D. By identifying echoes weaker than those from squids. 9. What is the impact of plastic debris on toothed whales? A. It may damage their built-in sonar. B. It may reduce their adaptive ability. C. It may result in their starving to death. D. It may lead to various infectious diseases. 10. What should be done for marine mammals according to the experts? A. Forbid the production of single-use items. B. Encourage the use of eco-friendly plastics. C. Establish the policy against whale hunting. D. Prevent waste from flowing into the ocean. 11. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text? A. Toothed Whales Are Eating More Plastic Bags B. Marine Life Is Facing An Alarming Death Rate C. Polluted Marine Environment Needs More Care D. Plastic Sounds Like Dinner for Toothed Whales 【答案】8 B 9. C 10. D 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了深海齿鲸靠内置声纳反射声波定位猎物，新研究发现海洋塑料垃圾因形状、大小等因素产生的“回声”与鱿鱼相似，致使齿鲸可能误食。大量案例显示塑料碎片进入海洋哺乳动物肠道，致其胃部受损、感染、窒息、营养不良甚至饿死。文章还提到了一些可能的解决方案。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段中“To find food in the darkness, deep - diving toothed whales rely on their built - in sonar, which bounces soundwaves off potential prey to reveal their location.( 为了在黑暗中寻找食物，深潜齿鲸依靠它们内置的声纳，它可以反射潜在猎物的声波来显示它们的位置。)”可知，深海齿鲸通过其内置的声纳在黑暗中定位猎物来寻找食物。故选B项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段中“As it spreads in marine environments, it is also showing up in the guts of marine mammals across hundreds of reported cases, damaging their stomach tissues and causing infection, choking, and malnutrition to the point of starvation.( 当它在海洋环境中传播时，它也出现在海洋哺乳动物的肠道中，数百例报告的病例损害了它们的胃组织，导致感染、窒息和营养不良直至饥饿的地步。)”可知，塑料碎片在海洋环境中传播，会进入海洋哺乳动物的肠道，导致它们胃部组织受损，引发感染、窒息和营养不良，甚至饿死。故选C项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“The ideal approach, Savoca and Merrill say, involves policy changes and redirecting waste streams from the ocean, especially targeting unnecessary single - use items.( 萨沃卡和梅里尔说，理想的方法包括改变政策，改变海洋废物流的方向，特别是针对不必要的一次性物品。)”可知，专家认为应该通过政策改变，阻止废物流入海洋，尤其是针对不必要的一次性物品。故选D项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及第一段“To find food in the darkness, deep-diving toothed whales rely on their built-in sonar, which bounces soundwaves off potential prey to reveal their location. But to these whales, plastic junk floating in the ocean may also “sound” just like a delicious squid.( 为了在黑暗中寻找食物，深潜齿鲸依靠它们内置的声纳，它可以反射潜在猎物的声波来显示它们的位置。但对这些鲸鱼来说，漂浮在海洋中的塑料垃圾也可能“听起来”就像美味的鱿鱼。)”可知，文章主要讲述了研究发现塑料碎片对深海齿鲸来说，回声与它们的猎物相似，导致它们可能会误食塑料，就像把塑料当成了美味的晚餐，D 选项“塑料听起来像是齿鲸的晚餐”符合文章主旨，适合作为文章的标题。故选D项。 D Nursing homes have increasingly turned to robots to complete a variety of care tasks. A new study from a University of Notre Dame expert on the future of work finds that robot use is associated with increased employment and employee retention (留住), improved productivity and a higher quality of care. The research has important implications for the workplace and the long-term care industry. Yong Suk Lee, associate professor of technology, economy and global affairs, was the lead author for the study. “Our research focused on Japan because it is a super-aging society that provides a good example of what the future could entail elsewhere-a declining population, a growing share of senior citizens and a declining share of working-age people,” Lee said. “We need to be ready for this new reality.” In a future where there are more senior citizens requiring care, using robots in a targeted fashion could benefit workers and patients alike, Lee said. The study analyzed three types of robots that are increasingly used in assisted living facilities: Transfer robots, which nurses use to lift, move and rotate patients in beds and around rooms. Mobility robots, which patients use to move around and to bathe. Monitoring and communication robots, which include technologies such as computer vision and bed sensors that can record and examine patient data such as movement and share it with care providers. “We found that robot adoption aids care workers by reducing quit rates. This is important because employee turnover is a big concern in nursing homes. Workers typically experience a great deal of physical pain, particularly in their knees and back. The work is hard and the pay is low. So robot use was associated with employee retention.” Lee said, “Robots can improve productivity by shifting the tasks performed by care workers to those involving human touch, empathy and dexterity (灵活性). Ultimately, robots can help workers provide a higher level of patient care.” “This research provides critical insights into how societies can successfully navigate the challenges of caring for aging populations,” Lee said. 12. Why did Yong Suk Lee focus his research on Japan? A. It encourages the elderly care industry. B. It has a sound foundation for robot nursing. C. Its super-aging society well reflects the trend. D. It owns the most advanced robots in the world. 13 How do the nursing robots improve patient care? A. They offer full-time chat service. B. They monitor patients’ real-time data. C. They provide specific treatment plans. D. They move medical equipment freely. 14 Why does robot adoption reduce workers’ quit rates? A. It solves the issue of low pay. B. It eases their heavy working burden. C. It helps to treat their occupational injuries. D. It switches their focus from human touch to technology. 15. What’s the passage mainly about? A. Japan’s exploration exemplifies the care industry. B. High quality care for the elderly should be advocated. C. Nursing robots benefit staff retention and patient care. D. Robot adoption in nursing requires critical examination. 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了护理机器人对养老院员工留存率和患者护理质量的积极影响。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段““Our research focused on Japan because it is a super-aging society that provides a good example of what the future could entail elsewhere-a declining population, a growing share of senior citizens and a declining share of working-age people,” Lee said. (‘我们的研究集中在日本，因为它是一个超老龄化社会，为其他地方未来可能面临的情况提供了一个很好的例子——人口减少，老年人口比例增加，劳动年龄人口比例下降，’李说)”可知，Yong Suk Lee将研究集中在日本是因为其超老龄化社会很好地反映了趋势。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Monitoring and communication robots, which include technologies such as computer vision and bed sensors that can record and examine patient data such as movement and share it with care providers. (监测和通信机器人，包括计算机视觉和床传感器等技术，可以记录和检查患者的运动等数据，并与护理提供者共享)”可知，护理机器人通过监测患者的实时数据来改善患者护理。故选B。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Workers typically experience a great deal of physical pain, particularly in their knees and back. The work is hard and the pay is low. So robot use was associated with employee retention. (工作人员通常会经历很多身体疼痛，尤其是膝盖和背部。工作很辛苦，工资也很低。因此，机器人的使用与员工留存率有关)”可知，机器人的使用降低了工人离职率是因为机器人减轻了工作人员的繁重工作负担。故选B。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“A new study from a University of Notre Dame expert on the future of work finds that robot use is associated with increased employment and employee retention (留住), improved productivity and a higher quality of care. (圣母大学一位研究未来工作的专家的一项新研究发现，机器人的使用与就业增加、员工留存率提高、生产力提高和护理质量提高有关)”以及文章内容可知，全文围绕机器人如何通过提升员工留存率和患者护理质量来应对老龄化社会，重点强调其对这两方面的积极影响。选项C“护理机器人有利于员工保留和患者护理”全面概括主题。故选C。 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Every challenge you face is an opportunity for growth.

Mr. Adams was well-loved by his pupils. He taught music, something he was passionate about ever since he was a child. Not all students were fond of playing musical instruments and singing, but because of Mr. Adams’ fun and easy lessons, he instantly became every pupil’s favorite teacher. He would teach them how to play instruments and have jamming sessions (即兴演奏) with them where they performed the students’ favorite songs. “You know, the key to making the kids love your lessons is to make it relatable to them,” he told his fellow teachers. “Once you catch their attention, it’ll be easier for them to absorb what you’re trying to teach them.” Mr. Adams taught Grade 11 and 12 high school students. Thanks to his fun nature, his students respected him as a teacher but treated him like a friend. They went to him for advice and would hang out with him outside of class to play music and exchange stories. One day, his students scheduled a day to spend time with him to make the playlist of their upcoming prom. It was such a formal dance that they would spend a lot buying dresses and suits. He was glad to help them and scheduled their session for Friday that week. However, that Friday, Mr. Adams didn’t show up to class for the first time. “I wonder if he’s okay,” one student said, worried. “He’s never been absent before!” The students waited inside the music room patiently. After a couple of minutes, though, the school director entered the room and said that Mr. Adams would not be returning any time soon. “I know how much you all love Mr. Adams, so I’m disclosing this information. Last night, a forest fire burned down his house, and he was devastated. He worked hard to put up that house, but he couldn’t save it. He was only able to retrieve a few items, but other than that, everything he owned is gone,” she revealed. The news saddened Mr. Adams’ students. 注意： (1) 续写词数应为150左右： (2) 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: “We have to help him!” the student council president said. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: When Mr. Adams finally made it to the prom, he was surprised to see everyone in casual wear instead of the formal clothes. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 “We have to help him!” the student council president said. The students immediately sprang into action. They organized a fundraising campaign, setting up donation boxes around the school. Everyone was eager to contribute. Some students gave up their weekly allowances, while others sold handmade crafts to raise more money. They also planned a charity concert, where they performed all the songs Mr. Adams had taught them. The whole school came together, and in a short time, they had collected a substantial amount. They used part of the money to buy essential items for Mr. Adams and saved the rest to help him rebuild his house. When Mr. Adams finally made it to the prom, he was surprised to see everyone in casual wear instead of the formal clothes. The student council president stepped forward and explained, “Mr. Adams, we knew you lost so much in the fire. We decided to cancel the formal part of the prom and use the money we would have spent on fancy dresses and suits to help you. This is our small way of showing how much we care.” Mr. Adams was deeply touched. Tears welled up in his eyes as he looked at his kind - hearted students. He realized that the love and support he had given them were reciprocated in the most beautiful way. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了旧金山一所高中的音乐老师亚当斯先生因有趣轻松的授课方式深受学生喜爱，学生将其当朋友，常交流互动。他本要和学生为毕业舞会制作播放列表却首次缺席，校长告知其房子被森林大火烧毁，损失巨大。学生们在学生会主席提议下积极行动，组织募捐、卖手工艺品、举办慈善音乐会来筹钱，用于为他购置必需品和重建房屋。毕业舞会上，亚当斯先生发现学生穿便装，得知为帮他取消了正式环节、用买礼服的钱助他，深受感动，感受到自己给予学生的爱与支持得到了美好回应。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容““我们必须帮助他！”学生会主席说。”可知，第一段可描写学生们开展一系列的活动为亚当斯先生筹款的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“当亚当斯先生最终到达舞会时，他惊讶地看到每个人都穿着休闲装而不是正装。”可知，第二段可描写学生会主席解释其原因以及亚当斯先生的内心感受。 2.续写线索：必须帮助他——开展筹款活动——为亚当斯买了必需品——亚当斯到达舞会——学生会主席解释其原因——内心感受 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①购买：buy /purchase ②决定做某事：decide to do/ be determined to do ③意识到：realize /be aware of 情绪类 ①渴望做某事：be eager to do/desire to do ②感动，打动：touched/ moved 【点睛】[高分句型1] They organized a fundraising campaign, setting up donation boxes around the school.（运用了非谓语动词中的现在分词作状语。） [高分句型2] They also planned a charity concert, where they performed all the songs Mr. Adams had taught them.（运用了where引导的非限制性定语从句。） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 绝密☆启用前 浙江省高考科目考试2025年4月绍兴市适应性试卷 英语学科试题卷 2025年4月 第一部分 听力 （共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上，录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节 （共5小题：每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

By the time Nalin Kamat was 13, the Toronto teen was well on his way to becoming a working artist. He had already had his first show at a local arts hub, showcasing his series titled Dispositions, charcoal sketches of the human body as a metaphor for his own transformation during adolescence. Yet he wanted more-specifically to start showing his work in a juried exhibition (评审展览), where art experts would evaluate and select pieces in a competitive review process. That’s when he hit an obstacle, discovering that the minimum age for submission was 18. That rejection stimulates his creation. “There was a void in the art world, and I thought it’d be really cool if I could provide the opportunity for more young artists,” says Nalin, now 15. With the support of his parents, Nalin founded in 2023 Little ‘EGG Gallery, a commercial studio specially for underage artists. The gallery, which is now profitable enough to break even, charges a small hanging fee for any displayed work and takes a 15 percent commission fee on sales. In turn, Little EGG helps promote young talents by showcasing their work. Not long after opening, Ontario College of Art and Design University professor and artist David Griffin stumbled upon the gallery while taking a casual walk with his wife in their neighbourhood. An exhibition was being installed at the time, and some of Nalin’s own work was on the walls. Upon meeting Nalin, Griffin says he understood that he was speaking with someone special: “a strong young artist with a really excellent idea, which was to provide a space for showing the local community the easy, natural genius of young people.” A connection was formed, and Nalin asked Griffin to help judge an upcoming competition. The first juried show was last spring, and the top three winners each received a $50 cash prize. Five-year-old Jack Gamble won for his abstract painting titled Pokemon. 4. What mainly drove Nalin to start Little EGG Gallery? A. The support of his parents. B. The desire to create his own studio. C. The wish to offer young artists chances. D. The approval from the local community. 5 What does the underlined phrase “stumbled upon” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Withdrew from. B. Came across. C. Looked around. D. Headed for. 6. Which of the following best describes Nalin Kamat? A. Patient and humble. B. Determined and sympathetic. C. Competitive and cooperative. D. Creative and devoted. 7. What can we learn from David Griffin’s words? A. Nalin’s uniqueness impressed him a lot. B. Nalin’s idea received wide recognition. C. Nalin’s platform boosted young artists’ creativity. D. Nalin’s efforts brought about the neighborhood unity. C To find food in the darkness, deep-diving toothed whales rely on their built-in sonar, which bounces soundwaves off potential prey to reveal their location. But to these whales, plastic junk floating in the ocean may also “sound” just like a delicious squid. A new study suggests plastic debris (碎片) like shopping bags bear remarkably similar “echoes” to those of squid-likely due to some combination of their shape size, degree of weathering, and chemical composition, the authors write. As it spreads in marine environments, it is also showing up in the guts of marine mammals across hundreds of reported cases, damaging their stomach tissues and causing infection, choking, and malnutrition to the point of starvation. Matthew Savoca, a marine biologist at Stanford University says, “They’re in pain, they’re starving, but they think they’re eating.” For the study, published in Marine Pollution Bulletin, Merrill and his colleagues gathered nine plastic items: bags, balloons, and other common trash found in whales from North Carolina beaches. The research team hit the items with sound waves at frequencies that toothed whales use to hunt. They repeated the process on five dead squid bodies provided by the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, as well as five squid beaks taken from a dead sperm whale’s stomach. All plastic items tested, the team found, returned echoes as strong as or stronger than those from the squid. It’s unknown whether deep-diving toothed whales use any means other than echo strength to distinguish food from not-food-but experts doubt it. Mouthfeel certainly doesn’t factor in. “They don’t really chew and taste like us. it’s more like suction,” says Laura Redaelli, a Ph.D student in marine biology. All three experts agree on the need to reduce plastic production in the first place. The ideal approach, Savoca and Merrill say, involves policy changes and redirecting waste streams from the ocean, especially targeting unnecessary single-use items. “Maybe we can hope that, at some point, whales will learn the difference between plastic and prey”, Redaelli says. But until then, “the more plastic we keep putting in, the more animals are going to die.” 8. How do deep-diving toothed whales find food? A. By producing soundwaves to attract prey. B. By using built-in sonar to locate prey in the dark. C. By telling food from not-food through mouthfeel. D. By identifying echoes weaker than those from squids. 9. What is the impact of plastic debris on toothed whales? A. It may damage their built-in sonar. B. It may reduce their adaptive ability. C. It may result in their starving to death. D. It may lead to various infectious diseases. 10. What should be done for marine mammals according to the experts? A. Forbid the production of single-use items. B. Encourage the use of eco-friendly plastics. C. Establish the policy against whale hunting. D. Prevent waste from flowing into the ocean. 11. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text? A. Toothed Whales Are Eating More Plastic Bags B. Marine Life Is Facing An Alarming Death Rate C. Polluted Marine Environment Needs More Care D. Plastic Sounds Like Dinner for Toothed Whales D Nursing homes have increasingly turned to robots to complete a variety of care tasks. A new study from a University of Notre Dame expert on the future of work finds that robot use is associated with increased employment and employee retention (留住), improved productivity and a higher quality of care. The research has important implications for the workplace and the long-term care industry. Yong Suk Lee, associate professor of technology, economy and global affairs, was the lead author for the study. “Our research focused on Japan because it is a super-aging society that provides a good example of what the future could entail elsewhere-a declining population, a growing share of senior citizens and a declining share of working-age people,” Lee said. “We need to be ready for this new reality.” In a future where there are more senior citizens requiring care, using robots in a targeted fashion could benefit workers and patients alike, Lee said. The study analyzed three types of robots that are increasingly used in assisted living facilities: Transfer robots, which nurses use to lift, move and rotate patients in beds and around rooms. Mobility robots, which patients use to move around and to bathe. Monitoring and communication robots, which include technologies such as computer vision and bed sensors that can record and examine patient data such as movement and share it with care providers. “We found that robot adoption aids care workers by reducing quit rates. This is important because employee turnover is a big concern in nursing homes. Workers typically experience a great deal of physical pain, particularly in their knees and back. The work is hard and the pay is low. So robot use was associated with employee retention.” Lee said, “Robots can improve productivity by shifting the tasks performed by care workers to those involving human touch, empathy and dexterity (灵活性). Ultimately, robots can help workers provide a higher level of patient care.” “This research provides critical insights into how societies can successfully navigate the challenges of caring for aging populations,” Lee said. 12. Why did Yong Suk Lee focus his research on Japan? A. It encourages the elderly care industry. B. It has a sound foundation for robot nursing. C. Its super-aging society well reflects the trend. D. It owns the most advanced robots in the world. 13. How do the nursing robots improve patient care? A. They offer full-time chat service. B. They monitor patients’ real-time data. C. They provide specific treatment plans. D. They move medical equipment freely. 14. Why does robot adoption reduce workers’ quit rates? A. It solves the issue of low pay. B. It eases their heavy working burden. C. It helps to treat their occupational injuries. D. It switches their focus from human touch to technology. 15. What’s the passage mainly about? A. Japan’s exploration exemplifies the care industry. B. High quality care for the elderly should be advocated. C. Nursing robots benefit staff retention and patient care. D. Robot adoption in nursing requires critical examination. 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Every challenge you face is an opportunity for growth.

Mr. Adams was well-loved by his pupils. He taught music, something he was passionate about ever since he was a child. Not all students were fond of playing musical instruments and singing, but because of Mr. Adams’ fun and easy lessons, he instantly became every pupil’s favorite teacher. He would teach them how to play instruments and have jamming sessions (即兴演奏) with them where they performed the students’ favorite songs. “You know, the key to making the kids love your lessons is to make it relatable to them,” he told his fellow teachers. “Once you catch their attention, it’ll be easier for them to absorb what you’re trying to teach them.” Mr. Adams taught Grade 11 and 12 high school students. Thanks to his fun nature, his students respected him as a teacher but treated him like a friend. They went to him for advice and would hang out with him outside of class to play music and exchange stories. One day, his students scheduled a day to spend time with him to make the playlist of their upcoming prom. It was such a formal dance that they would spend a lot buying dresses and suits. He was glad to help them and scheduled their session for Friday that week. However, that Friday, Mr. Adams didn’t show up to class for the first time. “I wonder if he’s okay,” one student said, worried. “He’s never been absent before!” The students waited inside the music room patiently. After a couple of minutes, though, the school director entered the room and said that Mr. Adams would not be returning any time soon. “I know how much you all love Mr. Adams, so I’m disclosing this information. Last night, a forest fire burned down his house, and he was devastated. He worked hard to put up that house, but he couldn’t save it. He was only able to retrieve a few items, but other than that, everything he owned is gone,” she revealed. The news saddened Mr. Adams’ students. 注意： (1) 续写词数应为150左右： (2) 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: “We have to help him!” the student council president said. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: When Mr. Adams finally made it to the prom, he was surprised to see everyone in casual wear instead of the formal clothes. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
