When he came to New York to study photography five years ago, he found a rich collection of images of life in Africa, past and present, in the city’s libraries, galleries and museums. Here he was thousands of miles from Ghana surrounded by more visual history of Africa than he had ever seen back home. That led to an idea: create a library of photobooks in Ghana, which allows people to learn about their own history and gives them the tools to tell new stories of the continent. This idea has been realized with the creation of the Dikan Center in Accra, Ghana’s capital. Dikan means “take the lead” in the Akan language. To create the center, Ninson travelled around New York City for books to ship to Ghana. He searched secondhand stores on the Lower East Side, engaged in online bidding wars and reached out to publishers and galleries, some of whom donated hundreds of materials. He maxed out his credit cards and lined his apartment walls with books, using Uber and U-Haul trucks to transport the books to storage units he rented across the city. He managed to amass more than 30,000 volumes — mainly about photography filmmaking, but also issues of publications like National Geographic dating back to the early 1940s. Ninson had additional support from his friend and collaborator, Brandon Stanton, who started aGoFundMe that raised over $1. 2 million for the founding of Dikan. In December 2022, the Dikan Center was opened. In a former residence that was renovated(翻新)to house the center, anyone is welcome to sit with the African story as long as they’d like. Michael Itkoff, a supporter of Ninson and the Dikan Center from the start, says photobooks offer a different visual experience in today’s world, which is often focused on the volume and speed of images available online. “The photobook allows for an intimate and more slowed down — and I would say elegant — experience of visuals,” says Itkoff. 4. What is Ninson’s purpose of creating the Dikan Center? A. To bring the African story home. B. To change people’s attitude to Africa. C. To pursue his passion for photography. D. To create a sharing space for book-lovers. 5. What does paragraph 5 mainly focus on? A. Ninson’s good taste in books. B. The assistance Ninson has received. C. Efforts made in creating Dikan Center. D. Wide sources of books in Dikan Center. 6. How would Itkoff describe the experience of reading photobooks? A. An ideal tool for art education. B. An escape from a fast-paced life. C. A dive into the richness of stories. D. A beautiful encounter with visuals. 7. What is the text mainly about? A. The realization of a big dream. B. The influence of a social trend. C. The development of photobooks. D. The growth of a genius photographer. 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. D 7. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。加纳摄影记者Paul Ninson创立Dikan中心，通过收集摄影书籍促进本土历史教育与非洲新叙事，提供深度视觉体验。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“That led to an idea: create a library of photobooks in Ghana, which allows people to learn about their own history and gives them the tools to tell new stories of the continent.(这让我产生了一个想法：在加纳建立一个图片库，让人们了解自己的历史，并为他们提供讲述非洲大陆新故事的工具)”可知，他想在加纳创建一个图书馆，让加纳人了解本土历史并讲述非洲新故事，故选A。 【5题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第五段“To create the center, Ninson travelled around New York City for books to ship to Ghana. He searched secondhand stores on the Lower East Side, engaged in online bidding wars and reached out to publishers and galleries, some of whom donated hundreds of materials. He maxed out his credit cards and lined his apartment walls with books, using Uber and U-Haul trucks to transport the books to storage units he rented across the city.(为了创建这个中心，Ninson走遍了纽约市，将书籍运往加纳。他搜索了下东区的二手店，参与了网上竞价战，并联系了出版商和画廊，其中一些人捐赠了数百件材料。他刷爆了信用卡，在公寓的墙上挂满了书，用优步和U-Haul卡车把书运到他在全城租来的仓库里)”可知，第5段的重点是创建迪坎中心的努力。故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The photobook allows for an intimate and more slowed down — and I would say elegant — experience of visuals(摄影书提供了一种亲密的、更慢的——我想说是优雅的——视觉体验)”可知，Itkoff觉得这是与视觉书的一个美好邂逅，故选D。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“That led to an idea: create a library of photobooks in Ghana, which allows people to learn about their own history and gives them the tools to tell new stories of the continent.(这让我产生了一个想法：在加纳建立一个图片库，让人们了解自己的历史，并为他们提供讲述非洲大陆新故事的工具)”以及倒数第二段“In December 2022, the Dikan Center was opened. (2022年12月，迪坎中心开业)”等内容可知，文章围绕Ninson实现梦想的过程展开，从最初的想法到实际建立Dikan Center的全过程，突出的是他如何将一个大胆的梦想变成现实，故选A。 C At 6 a.m. in an English village, hundreds of pinkish white sows are waking up for breakfast. But first, they have to get their pictures taken. As each pig squeezes into her feeding area, a tiny camera snaps a photo of her face. And in less than 1 second, an artificial intelligence system identifies her based on facial features. Armed with that information, the AIorders a customized meal to shoot into the trough (食槽). Meanwhile, the system continues to analyze her photo, looking for negative signs in her facial expression that she might be in pain, sick, or in emotional distress. If it finds any, it sends an immediate alert to the farmer — the guy enjoying a morning coffee over in the next room. These hungry piggies are the testers of Intellipig, a system being developed by scientists to deal with a fundamental problem in animal welfare: we human beings are just not the best at understanding how animals are feeling. Tools like Intellipig could usher in (开启) a new era of caring for animals that gives higher priority to their health, welfare, and protection, says Melvyn Smith, an engineer leading the design of the Intellipig system. There are indications that they could go even further. Eventually, AI might even outshine humans in interpreting a range of more complex emotions like happiness, frustration, or fear, he says — feelings that are equally important to understand if we are to give animals the best possible lives. But like most scientists considering the powers of AI, animal behavior researchers worry about putting too much stock in machines, especially when animal welfare is at risk. “Maybe a machine will end up being better than us; I don’t know,” says Emma Baxter, an animal behavior scientist. “I hope there’s room for experts, to make sure that the AI is actually doing what it says it is.” 8. What can the Intellipig system do automatically? A. Monitor pigs’ well-being. B. Clean pigs’ living spaces. C. Deliver medical services to pigs. D. Provide standardized diets for pigs. 9. What is Melvyn Smith’s attitude towards AI’s role in animal care? A. Concerned. B. Positive. C. Cautious. D. Skeptical. 10. What approach does Emma Baxter support when it comes to AI and animal care? A. Banning the use of AI. B. Restricting AI to basic tasks. C. Keeping professionals involved. D. Minimizing human intervention. 11 What is the best title for the text? A. Intellipig: AI Provides 24/7 Animal Care B. Intellipig: AI Can Understand Animal Speech C. Intellipig: AI Replaces Farmers in Animal Care D. Intellipig: AI Assists in Detecting Animal Emotions 【答案】8. A 9. B 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要说明了Intellipig通过面部识别技术对猪食物和情绪方面的全面照顾。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Meanwhile, the system continues to analyze her photo, looking for negative signs in her facial expression that she might be in pain, sick, or in emotional distress. If it finds any, it sends an immediate alert to the farmer — the guy enjoying a morning coffee over in the next room.(与此同时，该系统会继续分析它的照片，寻找其面部表情中可能表明它正处于疼痛、生病或情绪困扰状态的负面迹象。如果发现了任何此类迹象，系统会立即向农民发出警报——而此时这位农民正在隔壁房间里惬意地喝着晨间咖啡)”可知，Intellipig系统能够自动监测猪的健康状况，包括身体和情绪方面，故选A。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Tools like Intellipig could usher in (开启) a new era of caring for animals that gives higher priority to their health, welfare, and protection, says Melvyn Smith, an engineer leading the design of the Intellipig system. There are indications that they could go even further. Eventually, AI might even outshine humans in interpreting a range of more complex emotions like happiness, frustration, or fear, he says — feelings that are equally important to understand if we are to give animals the best possible lives.(负责设计Intellipig系统的工程师梅尔文・史密斯表示，像Intellipig这样的工具能够开启一个关爱动物的新时代，在这个时代里，动物的健康、福利和保护被置于更高的优先地位。有迹象表明，这些工具还能发挥更大的作用。他说，最终，人工智能在解读诸如快乐、沮丧或恐惧等一系列更为复杂的情绪方面，甚至可能会超越人类——如果我们想要给予动物尽可能好的生活，理解这些情绪同样至关重要)”可推知，Melvyn Smith对人工智能在动物护理方面持积极乐观态度，故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中Emma Baxter所说的话“I hope there’s room for experts, to make sure that the AI is actually doing what it says it is.(我希望有专家参与的空间，以确保人工智能确实在做它所说的事情)”可推知，她希望专业人士仍然参与其中，以确保AI系统发挥应有作用，故选C。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“Meanwhile, the system continues to analyze her photo, looking for negative signs in her facial expression that she might be in pain, sick, or in emotional distress. If it finds any, it sends an immediate alert to the farmer — the guy enjoying a morning coffee over in the next room.(与此同时，该系统会继续分析它的照片，寻找其面部表情中可能表明它正处于疼痛、生病或情绪困扰状态的负面迹象。如果发现了任何此类迹象，系统会立即向农民发出警报——而此时这位农民正在隔壁房间里惬意地喝着晨间咖啡)”以及文章重点介绍了AI如何通过识别动物面部特征来判断情绪和健康状态，而不是提供全天候照料或替代农场主，D选项“Intellipig：人工智能协助检测动物情绪”准确概括了文章的主要内容，是文章最佳标题。故选D。 D When it comes to problem-solving, virtually everyone can use either insightful or analytical methods, but many people tend to use one rather than the other. Mathematician Roger Penrose, for example, can obviously think analytically but seems to be naturally insightful. “I do most of my thinking in visual terms rather than writing down equations (方程式),” he once said in an interview. In the 2010s Brian Erickson, then a doctoral student at Drexel University, and his colleagues demonstrated that people’s tendency toward insightful or analytical thinking is evident during “resting-state” brain activity—while a person relaxes with no task to perform or expectation about what is to come. Erickson recorded people’s resting-state EEGs (脑电图) and then, weeks later, tasked the same participants with solving a series of puzzles. The astonishing result: a few minutes of EEG predicted, up to seven weeks in advance, whether a person would solve the puzzles mostly insightfully or analytically. Our dominant thinking style is stable over time. The subjects who relied mostly on insight had greater resting-state activity at the back of the brain, whereas the analytical subjects had greater activity in frontal areas. The frontal areas, where a person’s executive processes are centered, organize activity in the rest of the brain. These executive processes enable people to think in a focused and strategic way, but they can also restrict creativity by limiting thought to straightforward plans, just as a horse’s blinders block out distractions that would lead it to wander from its path. When activity in this region is relatively low, as it was for the insightful subjects, posterior (后部) areas can “go rogue,” sometimes resulting in aha! moments. Although individuals may tend toward more analytical or insightful thinking, we aren’t locked into one or the other. Our thinking style can shift, at least temporarily, to the other strategy. This flexibility is key to making the best possible use of both creativity and logic in our decision-making. By using the right strategy at the right time, we can address challenges more effectively, enhancing our ability to think critically and innovatively. 12. What does the example of Roger Penrose illustrate? A. Visual images help solve a problem. B. Scientists favor an insightful solution. C. Note-taking negatively affects thinking. D. People have a preferred way of thinking. 13. What did Brian Erickson’s study reveal about resting-state brain activity? A. It predicts our future growth. B. It reflects our thinking ability. C. It indicates our dominant thinking style. D. It determines our problem-solving speed. 14 What does the underlined expression “go rogue” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Get stuck. B. Run wild. C. Grow mature. D. Become inactive. 15. What advice does the author give in the last paragraph? A. Follow your natural thinking style. B. Adjust your thinking style as needed. C. Reflect on your thinking style regularly. D. Limit your analytical thinking to stay creative. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. B 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了人们在解决问题时，会倾向于使用洞察力或分析方法，并介绍了相关研究结果，同时指出人们可以调整自己的思维方式。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“When it comes to problem-solving, virtually everyone can use either insightful or analytical methods, but many people tend to use one rather than the other. Mathematician Roger Penrose, for example, can obviously think analytically but seems to be naturally insightful. “I do most of my thinking in visual terms rather than writing down equations(方程式),” he once said in an interview. (当涉及到解决问题时，几乎每个人都可以使用有洞察力的或分析的方法，但许多人倾向于使用一种而不是另一种。例如，数学家罗杰·彭罗斯显然可以进行分析性思考，但似乎天生就很有洞察力。“我大部分的思考都是用视觉的方式，而不是写下方程式，”他曾在一次采访中说)”可知，作者通过罗杰·彭罗斯的例子说明人们有自己偏好的思维方式。故选D。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“In the 2010s Brian Erickson, then a doctoral student at Drexel University, and his colleagues demonstrated that people’s tendency toward insightful or analytical thinking is evident during “resting-state” brain activity—while a person relaxes with no task to perform or expectation about what is to come. Erickson recorded people’s resting-state EEGs(脑电图)and then, weeks later, tasked the same participants with solving a series of puzzles. The astonishing result: a few minutes of EEG predicted, up to seven weeks in advance, whether a person would solve the puzzles mostly insightfully or analytically. Our dominant thinking style is stable over time. (在21世纪10年代，当时还是德雷塞尔大学博士生的布莱恩·埃里克森和他的同事证明，人们在“静息状态”大脑活动期间，即一个人在没有任务要执行或对即将发生的事情没有期望的情况下放松时，倾向于有洞察力或分析性的思考。埃里克森记录了人们的静息状态脑电图，然后在几周后，让同样的参与者解决一系列谜题。惊人的结果是：几分钟的脑电图预测，最多提前七周，一个人是否会以洞察力或分析的方式解决谜题。我们占主导地位的思维方式会随着时间的推移而保持稳定)”可知，布莱恩·埃里克森的研究揭示了静息状态下的脑电图可以预测人们占主导地位的思维方式。故选C。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“The frontal areas, where a person’s executive processes are centered, organize activity in the rest of the brain. These executive processes enable people to think in a focused and strategic way, but they can also restrict creativity by limiting thought to straightforward plans, just as a horse’s blinders block out distractions that would lead it to wander from its path. When activity in this region is relatively low, as it was for the insightful subjects, posterior(后部)areas can “go rogue,” sometimes resulting in aha! moments. (前额叶区域是一个人执行过程的中心，它组织着大脑其他部分的活动。这些执行过程使人们能够以专注和战略性的方式思考，但它们也可以通过将思维限制在直接的计划中来限制创造力，就像马匹的眼罩阻挡了导致它偏离道路的干扰一样。当这个区域的活动相对较低时，就像有洞察力的受试者一样，后部区域可能会“go rogue”，有时会产生顿悟时刻)”可知，当大脑前额叶区域的活动相对较低时，后部区域可能会“失控，自我发挥”，有时会产生顿悟时刻。由此可知，画线短语“go rogue”意为“失控，自由发挥”。A. Get stuck陷入困境/停滞不前；B. Run wild肆意妄为/失去控制；C. Grow mature变得成熟；D. Become inactive变得不活跃。 故选B。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“By using the right strategy at the right time, we can address challenges more effectively, enhancing our ability to think critically and innovatively. (通过在正确的时间使用正确的策略，我们可以更有效地应对挑战，提高我们批判性和创新性思维的能力)”可知，作者在最后一段建议人们根据需要调整思维方式。故选B。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Emotional blackmail (胁迫) isn’t something to take lightly.____16____. Being a target can impact your mental health. You may feel confused, ashamed, depressed, doubtful, or even question your own judgement. Below are 4 actionable ways to help you. Highlight the unacceptable conduct Manipulators (操控者) tend to “play the fool” when you call out their bad behavior. ____17____. With this in mind, carefully point out what they have been doing wrong and hold them accountable. For example, you could say, “I am usually on the receiving end of threats and conditions when you’d like to get something. I will no longer accept this or similar behavior.” Calm honesty often works best. ____18____ Manipulators are always looking for the weaknesses in others to take advantage of. While expressing your concerns, be careful not to demonstrate anger or emotional pain. Don’t beg, don’t cry. Otherwise, they will find a way to use it against you later on. Quit people-pleasing If you are a people-pleaser, you are an easy target for emotional blackmailers. ____19____. You can overcome this tendency to help or please by learning the power of saying, “No.” The one-word response limits what blackmailers get — nothing in this case. Distance yourself from the unpleasant situation ____20____. That’s okay. You can simply walk away, disconnect, or tune out. You are in self-preservation since you are aware emotional blackmailers only care about themselves. We can’t control people, but we can establish boundaries to protect ourselves from those who are unreasonable and manipulative. A. Keep your emotions in check B. Allow your feelings to guide you C. Actually, blackmailers just want attention D. People-pleasers often struggle to refuse requests E. Getting blackmailed means you’re experiencing emotional abuse F. They are also ready to quickly shift the blame to you or someone else G. Even with the best actionable steps, things may not turn out as expected 【答案】16. E 17. F 18. A 19. D 20. G 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了情感胁迫的危害及自我保护方法。 【16题详解】 根据上文“Emotional blackmail isn’t something to take lightly.(情感胁迫不可轻视)” 以及后文“Being a target can impact your mental health.(成为目标会影响你的心理健康)”可知，本句为过渡句，阐释为什么情感胁迫不可轻视。E选项“被情感胁迫等同于遭受情感虐待”解释了情感胁迫的严重性，与上下文逻辑一致，故选E。 【17题详解】 根据上文“Manipulators (操控者) tend to “play the fool” when you call out their bad behavior.(操控者在你指出其不良行为时会“装傻”)”以及后文“With this in mind, carefully point out what they have been doing wrong and hold them accountable.(记住这一点，仔细指出他们做错了什么，让他们承担责任)”可知，本句主要列举操控者的典型行为，与“play the fool”形成并列。故F选项“他们也准备好迅速将责任推给你或别人”符合语境，故选 F。 【18题详解】 根据本段内容“Manipulators are always looking for the weaknesses in others to take advantage of. While expressing your concerns, be careful not to demonstrate anger or emotional pain. Don’t beg, don’t cry. Otherwise, they will find a way to use it against you later on.(操纵者总是在寻找他人的弱点并加以利用。在表达你的担忧时，注意不要表现出愤怒或情感上的痛苦。不要乞求，不要哭泣。否则，他们以后会找到办法利用它来对付你)”可知本段讲的是“操控者会利用你的情绪弱点”，并建议“不要表现出愤怒或痛苦”。A选项“控制好你的情绪”概括了本段主旨，是最佳标题，故选A。 【19题详解】 根据上文“If you are a people-pleaser, you are an easy target for emotional blackmailers.(如果你是一个讨人喜欢的人，你很容易成为情感勒索者的目标)”前文指出讨好型人格的人是情感胁迫的目标，下文则提出应对建议：“You can overcome this tendency to help or please by learning the power of saying, “No.”(你可以通过学习说“不”的力量来克服这种帮助或取悦的倾向)”，由此可知，本句解释people-pleasers的典型行为特征。选项D“取悦他人的人常常很难拒绝别人的要求”准确指出讨好型人格难以拒绝他人请求，正是他们被操控的根源，也为后一句提供了解决方向。D选项在逻辑与内容上都起到承上启下的作用，衔接自然，因此为最佳答案，故选D。 【20题详解】 根据后文“That’s okay. You can simply walk away, disconnect, or tune out. You are in self-preservation since you are aware emotional blackmailers only care about themselves. We can’t control people, but we can establish boundaries to protect ourselves from those who are unreasonable and manipulative.(那也没关系。你可以简单地走开，断开连接，或者忽略它。你在自我保护，因为你知道情感勒索者只关心他们自己。我们不能控制别人，但我们可以建立界限，保护自己不受无理取闹和控制欲强的人的伤害)”可知，这一段的主题是：即使你已经尽力应对情感胁迫，结果可能依然不如预期，但没关系——你可以选择走开、切断联系、不理睬。因此，G选项“即使采取了最可行的措施，事情也可能不会如预期般发展”能够自然引出“那也没关系(That’s okay)”这个承接句，故选G。 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Most days, I believe my seventeen-month-old is doing just fine.

My wife Carolyn and I (both sixty-eight) are on our way to check out Tellico Village, a retirement community south of Knoxville. I am worried. I’m fine with our plans to move from our home in Florida. That’s not the problem. The problem is that we booked two nights in a private home through one of those Internet home-sharing services. When Carolyn first mentioned the idea a month ago, I questioned why we couldn’t just stay at a motel like usual. She explained that this place was located right in Tellico Village, and we’d be staying with someone who could give us an insider’s view. I expressed concern about staying with a stranger, but Carolyn assured me our host Jo Ann had great reviews. I tried arguing about cost, but she countered that this was actually cheaper. When she suggested it would be nice to try something different, I diplomatically chose not to respond, knowing I’d already lost the argument. Our GPS leads us more efficiently than I would have liked to the front door of our host’s home. If I could drag my feet outside the car to slow us down, I would. But here we are in a neighborhood of beautiful homes. Jo Ann has a lovely single-story house, well landscaped and with two large white rocking chairs waiting on a porch (门廊) decorated with flowers. The house is dark inside. It is 4: 00 p. m., the exact time we said we would arrive. “So where is she?” I ask. I have a hint of “I told you so” in my voice. “Didn’t she confirm our arrival time?” “Yes,” says Carolyn. She rings the doorbell. No answer. 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。 I dial Jo Ann’ number, thinking this wouldn’t have happened if we had booked a motel. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ At 10: 00 p. m., I hear a key turn in the door and Jo Ann is back. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 I dial Jo Ann’s number, thinking this wouldn’t have happened if we had booked a motel. Jo Ann answers. She apologizes for not being here to greet us. She says she has been trying to reach us to let us know she is attending a charity sale this evening. She tells me to look under the cushion of one of the rocking chairs on the porch for the house key. “Just make yourselves at home,” she says. “Feel free to use the living room, television, and back porch.” I am relieved. For the next several hours, we have a home away from home. The house is gorgeous, modern and tastefully furnished. At 10: 00 p.m., I hear a key turn in the door and Jo Ann is back. She is a gracious and welcoming host. She apologizes again for not meeting us when we arrived. We have a long conversation about how she came to the village and her experience selecting and building her house. She even offers to put us in touch with a neighbor who is a Realtor if we decide to build or rent a home. We learn things about the Tellico Village from her that we would never have learned had we stayed at a motel. What little anxiety I have left vanishes. If I hadn’t endured the anxiety of “trying something different for a change,” we would still be staying at impersonal motels. And we may not have moved to Tellico Village, where we are now living, pleased with our decision. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者和妻子卡洛琳通过一家互联网家庭共享服务公司在一家私人住宅预订了两晚，妻子保证房东乔安的评价很好，但作者担忧。虽然一开始房东因为有事耽搁没能来迎接作者他们，但是乔安的态度逐渐让作者消除了担忧。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我拨了乔安的电话，心想如果我们订了汽车旅馆就不会发生这种事了”可知，第一段可描写乔安解释没能来迎接作者他们的原因。 ②由第二段首句内容“晚上10点，我听到钥匙在门上转动，乔安回来了”可知，第二段可描写乔安回来以后和作者他们交谈以及作者的担忧消失。 2.续写线索：拨打电话——乔安道歉——乔安解释原因——参观房子——乔安回家——和乔安交谈——担忧消失 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①道歉：apologize/make an apology ②联系：reach /get in touch with ③参加：attend/take part in 情绪类 ①有礼貌的：gracious/polite ②高兴：pleased/glad 【点睛】[高分句型1] She apologizes again for not meeting us when we arrived.（由when引导时间状语从句） [高分句型2] What little anxiety I have left vanishes.（由what引导主语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025届重庆市巴蜀中学高三二模 英语试卷 注意事项： 1.答题前，考生务必用黑色碳素笔将自己的姓名、准考证号、考场号、座位号在答题卡上填写清楚。 2.每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。在试题卷上作答无效。 3.考试结束后，请将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。满分150分，考试用时120分钟。 第一部分 听力 (共两节，满分30分) 注意，听力部分答题时，请先将答案标在试卷上。听力部分结束前，你将有两分钟的时间将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.

B Ghanaian photojournalist Paul Ninson was thrilled — and surprised. When he came to New York to study photography five years ago, he found a rich collection of images of life in Africa, past and present, in the city’s libraries, galleries and museums. Here he was thousands of miles from Ghana surrounded by more visual history of Africa than he had ever seen back home. That led to an idea: create a library of photobooks in Ghana, which allows people to learn about their own history and gives them the tools to tell new stories of the continent. This idea has been realized with the creation of the Dikan Center in Accra, Ghana’s capital. Dikan means “take the lead” in the Akan language. To create the center, Ninson travelled around New York City for books to ship to Ghana. He searched secondhand stores on the Lower East Side, engaged in online bidding wars and reached out to publishers and galleries, some of whom donated hundreds of materials. He maxed out his credit cards and lined his apartment walls with books, using Uber and U-Haul trucks to transport the books to storage units he rented across the city. He managed to amass more than 30,000 volumes — mainly about photography filmmaking, but also issues of publications like National Geographic dating back to the early 1940s. Ninson had additional support from his friend and collaborator, Brandon Stanton, who started aGoFundMe that raised over $1. 2 million for the founding of Dikan. In December 2022, the Dikan Center was opened. In a former residence that was renovated(翻新)to house the center, anyone is welcome to sit with the African story as long as they’d like. Michael Itkoff, a supporter of Ninson and the Dikan Center from the start, says photobooks offer a different visual experience in today’s world, which is often focused on the volume and speed of images available online. “The photobook allows for an intimate and more slowed down — and I would say elegant — experience of visuals,” says Itkoff. 4. What is Ninson’s purpose of creating the Dikan Center? A. To bring the African story home. B. To change people’s attitude to Africa. C. To pursue his passion for photography. D. To create a sharing space for book-lovers. 5. What does paragraph 5 mainly focus on? A. Ninson’s good taste in books. B. The assistance Ninson has received. C. Efforts made in creating Dikan Center. D. Wide sources of books in Dikan Center. 6. How would Itkoff describe the experience of reading photobooks? A. An ideal tool for art education. B. An escape from a fast-paced life. C. A dive into the richness of stories. D. A beautiful encounter with visuals. 7. What is the text mainly about? A. The realization of a big dream. B. The influence of a social trend. C. The development of photobooks. D. The growth of a genius photographer. C At 6 a.m. in an English village, hundreds of pinkish white sows are waking up for breakfast. But first, they have to get their pictures taken. As each pig squeezes into her feeding area, a tiny camera snaps a photo of her face. And in less than 1 second, an artificial intelligence system identifies her based on facial features. Armed with that information, the AIorders a customized meal to shoot into the trough (食槽). Meanwhile, the system continues to analyze her photo, looking for negative signs in her facial expression that she might be in pain, sick, or in emotional distress. If it finds any, it sends an immediate alert to the farmer — the guy enjoying a morning coffee over in the next room. These hungry piggies are the testers of Intellipig, a system being developed by scientists to deal with a fundamental problem in animal welfare: we human beings are just not the best at understanding how animals are feeling. Tools like Intellipig could usher in (开启) a new era of caring for animals that gives higher priority to their health, welfare, and protection, says Melvyn Smith, an engineer leading the design of the Intellipig system. There are indications that they could go even further. Eventually, AI might even outshine humans in interpreting a range of more complex emotions like happiness, frustration, or fear, he says — feelings that are equally important to understand if we are to give animals the best possible lives. But like most scientists considering the powers of AI, animal behavior researchers worry about putting too much stock in machines, especially when animal welfare is at risk. “Maybe a machine will end up being better than us; I don’t know,” says Emma Baxter, an animal behavior scientist. “I hope there’s room for experts, to make sure that the AI is actually doing what it says it is.” 8. What can the Intellipig system do automatically? A. Monitor pigs’ well-being. B. Clean pigs’ living spaces. C. Deliver medical services to pigs. D. Provide standardized diets for pigs. 9.

Intellipig: AI Assists in Detecting Animal Emotions D When it comes to problem-solving virtually everyone can use either insightful or analytical methods, but many people tend to use one rather than the other. Mathematician Roger Penrose, for example, can obviously think analytically but seems to be naturally insightful. “I do most of my thinking in visual terms rather than writing down equations (方程式),” he once said in an interview. In the 2010s Brian Erickson, then a doctoral student at Drexel University, and his colleagues demonstrated that people’s tendency toward insightful or analytical thinking is evident during “resting-state” brain activity—while a person relaxes with no task to perform or expectation about what is to come. Erickson recorded people’s resting-state EEGs (脑电图) and then, weeks later, tasked the same participants with solving a series of puzzles. The astonishing result: a few minutes of EEG predicted, up to seven weeks in advance, whether a person would solve the puzzles mostly insightfully or analytically. Our dominant thinking style is stable over time. The subjects who relied mostly on insight had greater resting-state activity at the back of the brain, whereas the analytical subjects had greater activity in frontal areas. The frontal areas, where a person’s executive processes are centered, organize activity in the rest of the brain. These executive processes enable people to think in a focused and strategic way, but they can also restrict creativity by limiting thought to straightforward plans, just as a horse’s blinders block out distractions that would lead it to wander from its path. When activity in this region is relatively low, as it was for the insightful subjects, posterior (后部) areas can “go rogue,” sometimes resulting in aha! moments. Although individuals may tend toward more analytical or insightful thinking, we aren’t locked into one or the other. Our thinking style can shift, at least temporarily, to the other strategy. This flexibility is key to making the best possible use of both creativity and logic in our decision-making. By using the right strategy at the right time, we can address challenges more effectively, enhancing our ability to think critically and innovatively. 12. What does the example of Roger Penrose illustrate? A. Visual images help solve a problem. B. Scientists favor an insightful solution. C. Note-taking negatively affects thinking. D. People have a preferred way of thinking. 13. What did Brian Erickson’s study reveal about resting-state brain activity? A. It predicts our future growth. B. It reflects our thinking ability. C. It indicates our dominant thinking style. D. It determines our problem-solving speed. 14. What does the underlined expression “go rogue” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Get stuck. B. Run wild. C. Grow mature. D. Become inactive. 15. What advice does the author give in the last paragraph? A. Follow your natural thinking style. B. Adjust your thinking style as needed. C. Reflect on your thinking style regularly. D Limit your analytical thinking to stay creative. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Emotional blackmail (胁迫) isn’t something to take lightly.____16____.

My wife Carolyn and I (both sixty-eight) are on our way to check out Tellico Village, a retirement community south of Knoxville. I am worried. I’m fine with our plans to move from our home in Florida. That’s not the problem. The problem is that we booked two nights in a private home through one of those Internet home-sharing services. When Carolyn first mentioned the idea a month ago, I questioned why we couldn’t just stay at a motel like usual. She explained that this place was located right in Tellico Village, and we’d be staying with someone who could give us an insider’s view. I expressed concern about staying with a stranger, but Carolyn assured me our host Jo Ann had great reviews. I tried arguing about cost, but she countered that this was actually cheaper. When she suggested it would be nice to try something different, I diplomatically chose not to respond, knowing I’d already lost the argument. Our GPS leads us more efficiently than I would have liked to the front door of our host’s home. If I could drag my feet outside the car to slow us down, I would. But here we are in a neighborhood of beautiful homes. Jo Ann has a lovely single-story house, well landscaped and with two large white rocking chairs waiting on a porch (门廊) decorated with flowers. The house is dark inside. It is 4: 00 p. m., the exact time we said we would arrive. “So where is she?” I ask. I have a hint of “I told you so” in my voice. “Didn’t she confirm our arrival time?” “Yes,” says Carolyn. She rings the doorbell. No answer. 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。 I dial Jo Ann’ number, thinking this wouldn’t have happened if we had booked a motel. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ At 10: 00 p. m.
