Not only was she one of the few women artists of any nationality to succeed professionally in her time, but she was also the only American artist to exhibit with the French Impressionists. After mastering the requirements of academic painting, Cassatt broke away from tradition and joined Edgar Degas, a close friend and guide, in the exhibition of Impressionist artists in 1879. Cassatt embraced the technique of the Impressionists while developing a highly accomplished individual style. Her indirect views, simplified forms, and flat compositions show the impact of Degas’s work, as well as her study of Japanese prints. Cassatt created a personal language out of the grammar of Impressionism. Most often, she painted women like herself out and about in Paris, or at home, taking tea, reading, sewing, writing letters, and engaging in other familiar activities. Cassatt began to explore her distinctive theme — the mother and child — in 1880, and made a specialty of it after 1893. Cassatt was a skilled artist, accomplished in oil painting as well as in making pastels (粉彩) and prints. Initially, Cassatt worked primarily in oil, but by the early 1890s, printmaking and work in pastels had become her central interests, thanks to Degas, who encouraged her experiments in these media. In all her paintings, pastels, and prints, she revealed herself to be a sensitive and honest witness to the lives of women and children at the end of the nineteenth century. Although Cassatt chose to live abroad for most of her adult life, she always considered herself an American. She was a frequent participant in art exhibitions in the United States. Her advice to American supporters of art, such as Louisine and H. O. Havemeyer, Alexander Cassatt, John G. Johnson, and Berthe Honoré Palmer, helped to create some of the most remarkable and distinguished art collections in the world. 24. Which is most likely one of Cassatt’s works? A. A portrait of a man in a business suit. B. A painting of a busy New York street. C. A pastel of a woman reading at home. D. A landscape of the French countryside. 25. In what way did Edgar Degas influence Cassatt’s art? A. He inspired her to explore different media. B. He introduced her to the Impressionist style. C. He taught her academic painting techniques. D. He guided her in painting women and children. 26. What was Cassatt’s major contribution to American art? A. Hosting art exhibitions for artists in the U. S. B. Funding scholarships for American painters. C. Teaching new techniques to American artists. D. Helping collectors in America build up collections. 27. What is the best title for the text? A Mary Cassatt: Founder of Impressionist Art B. Mary Cassatt: Master of Still Life and Portraits C. Mary Cassatt: The First Female Impressionist Artist D. Mary Cassatt: American Impressionist and Innovator C When hearing the word “genius”, many people automatically visualize a person with crazy and messy hair — someone like Albert Einstein, the famous scientist. They imagine the genius to be hurriedly writing calculations on a whiteboard, perhaps speaking to themselves as they work. This is a widespread idea of what a genius is like, but is it accurate? What makes a person a genius? Psychological studies define a genius as being a person with an above-average intelligence, and many researchers believe that an IQ (Intelligence Quotient) of above 140 indicates that a person has a high potential of genius. Research confirms that natural and inherited intellectual ability does play a role in determining genius, and statistics show that genius tendencies are frequently passed down from generation to generation. But is a person’s natural intelligence strongly linked to genius? Many people who score highly on intelligence tests are not successful in everyday life, and they often do not display any above-average abilities. The 19th century British scientist, Sir Francis Galton, believed that the term “genius” could only be applied to someone who had accomplished a significant achievement. What mattered to Galton was not a person’s potential ability, but how much a person could achieve with that ability. He considered characteristics such as passion and capacity to work hard as important to genius as intelligence. Some believe that genius may almost be a type of psychosis. It is a fact that some of the world’s most celebrated intellectual geniuses display very poor social and emotional skills, and these people mirror the conventional image of the “mad scientist” genius. Others believe one can be a genius in one or two areas but not in others. They believe many people can have elements of genius — such as being a confident speaker or an excellent sportsman. At present there is nothing agreed upon definition of genius. However, it does appear that both genetic and environmental factors contribute toward creating a genius. 28. Why is Einstein mentioned in the first paragraph? A. To highlight his scientific breakthroughs. B. To list different definitions of intelligence. C. To illustrate the common image of genius. D. To explain the role of creativity in science. 29. What did Galton believe was important for defining a genius? A. A person’s social skills. B. A person’s natural intelligence. C. A person’s potential ability. D. A person’s major achievements. 30. What does the underlined word “psychosis” probably mean in paragraph 4? A. Heart disease. B. Mental illness. C. Emotional confusion. D. Physical exhaustion. 31. What can we learn about geniuses from the last paragraph? A. Geniuses think alike. B. Geniuses find their own ways. C. Geniuses are born and made. D. Geniuses are found in adversity. D A new study by MIT doctoral student Aidan Toner-Rodgers reveals that artificial intelligence (AI) can significantly boost productivity, challenging the contrasting views of economists Daron Acemoglu and David Autor. Daron Acemoglu, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology professor who recently won the Nobel Prize in economics, worries that artificial intelligence will worsen income inequality and not do all that much for productivity. His friend and colleague David Autor is more hopeful, believing that AI could do just the opposite. Toner-Rodgers’ research, however, offers real-world evidence of AI’s impact on the workforce. Both professors are praising it. “It’s fantastic,” said Acemoglu. “I was floored.” said Autor. The study focused on the introduction of an AI tool to 1, 018 scientists at a materials-science research lab. Historically, material discovery has been a slow, trial-and-error process. AI tools trained on existing materials improved this by generating compound (复合的) recipes based on desired properties. The results were remarkable: researchers discovered 44% more materials, filed 39% more patents, and produced 17% more prototypes (原型). Toner-Rodgers, initially unconvinced, admitted the outcomes exceeded his expectations. However, the study also highlighted differences. Top-performing researchers benefited more from AI, while others saw limited gains, potentially widening income inequality. Acemoglu noted that the lab’s specialized AI tool might not translate broadly, unlike general-purpose models like ChatGPT. Despite productivity gains, 82% of scientists reported reduced job satisfaction, feeling AI took away the part of their jobs — dreaming up new compounds — they enjoyed most. One scientist remarked, “I couldn’t help feeling that much of my education is now worthless.” While the study highlights AI’s potential to speed up innovation, it also raises concerns about uneven benefits and worker dissatisfaction. Autor remains optimistic, arguing that proper training could help workers adapt and reduce inequality. Toner-Rodgers’ research marks a crucial step in understanding AI’s complex impact on productivity and the workforce. 32. What is the main purpose of the first paragraph? A. To explain how AI improves lab productivity. B. To discuss AI’s negative effects on workforce. C. To explain the details of Toner-Rodgers’ study. D. To introduce a new study and contrasting views. 33. What do the percentages in paragraph 4 show? A. A clear advance in AI models. B. A significant boost in productivity. C. A huge improvement in existing materials. D. A striking enhancement in material quality. 34. What made scientists less satisfied about their jobs? A. Limited productivity gains from AI. B. Restricted access to general AI models. C. Reduced involvement in creative design. D. Lower quality of education in scientific fields. 35. What does the author think of Toner-Rodgers’ research? A. It is of significant importance. B. It has some negative impacts. C. It is beneficial to AI’s progress. D. It is complicated to understand. 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。 When we look at a forest, it’s easy to see a collection of trees standing tall and separate, each seemingly independent. ___36___ Under the forest floor lies a hidden network — a web of roots and fungi (真菌) that allow trees to “talk” to each other. This system, often referred to as the “wood wide web”, enables trees to support one another in ways that were once unimaginable. The primary way trees “talk” to each other is through their roots and an underground network called mycorrhizal (菌根) fungi. Attaching to tree roots, these fungi create a vast web that connects multiple trees within a forest. In exchange for sugars produced through photosynthesis (光合作用), the fungi provide trees with essential nutrients. ___37___ Through this underground system, trees share information and send signals. When a tree is attacked by harmful insects, it can release chemical messages through the network. ___38___ Then neighboring trees may strengthen their defenses by producing chemicals in their leaves to protect themselves. ___39___ Rather than managing individual trees, conservation efforts must focus on preserving the forest’s wholeness. Beyond that, reforestation efforts can benefit from understanding tree communication. By planting diverse species and fostering the growth of mycorrhizal fungi, restoration projects can create ecosystems that are more self-sustaining. Understanding this hidden language shows us clearly that all living things on Earth are linked together. ___40___ By protecting these ecosystems, we protect not only trees but the complicated networks that support all life within them. A. Not all trees communicate in the same way. B. These chemical signals can act as warnings. C. But the messages trees send are not easy to find. D. It also reminds us how critical forests are to keep life going. E. However, research reveals that trees are far from being alone. F. The idea of tree communication reshapes how we protect forests. G. This cooperation is the core of the forest’s communication system. 第三部分 语言知识运用（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。 When I turned twelve, my parents bought me a mobile phone. ___41___ , they were against the idea, but I ___42___ them that it would help them stay connected with me and know where I was.

I had never been there before and was eagerly anticipating the magical experience it promised. There was another reason why this trip was special. My father was a person who worked long hours. I longed to spend time with him. I wanted to sit down with my father, whom I loved more than life, and just talk. It always seemed like there was never time. The day finally arrived when I was allowed to pack. I chose only my favourite clothes and my Disney autograph (签名) book. I set my suitcase down on my bed and smiled. I was ready. I did not get any sleep that night. I lay in my bed and stared out the window. I knew that my father’s work was going to be left at home, finally. After an early breakfast, we hit the open road. For the first two hours, it was all smooth sailing, until I unexpectedly felt a sharp jerk (震动). We pulled over to the side of the road, and my father said something about the engine being shot. He decided that the easiest thing to do would be to flag someone down and get a ride to town. An hour later, my father was still waving his hands at each and every passing car but it was not doing any good. Not a single soul would stop to assist my helpless family. Finally, my father gave up and wanted to walk into town. I was certain it was a very long distance. He just said that he would not let anything ruin this trip for me. I begged him to stay and try again. After thinking it over, he decided to stay by our car and keep waving for help. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 After what felt like forever, a truck finally pulled over. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On our way home, while stopping for gas, I saw a familiar figure. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 吉安市2025届高三模拟考试 英语试卷 说明：1. 全卷满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 2. 全卷分为试题卷和答题卡，答案要求写在答题卡上，不得在试题卷上作答，否则不给分。 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。 例: How much is the shirt?

Welcome to our train journey through the high desert. This train, built in 1933, is a historic gem. It’s old but very comfortable! Our trip will last one-and-a-half hours, traveling at about 15 miles per hour. We’ll climb uphill for 45 minutes before descending to Oldsville. In the 20th century, oil was discovered here, leading to an important industry. Today, tourism is the main attraction. The town has lots to see. During the ride, you won’t see animals in the daytime — it’s too hot. But look out for beautiful desert plants next to the track. There are no trees at this height. We’ll cross an old wooden bridge. It’s noisy but very safe. Under it, you’ll see colorful rocks instead of a river. There are no stops on this trip. The route is maintained by locals who cherish the railway’s history. At the end of the coach, there’s a small store with unique souvenirs. We also sell drinks and snacks. The machine is broken, so I’ll walk down the coach with a basket. Just stop me if you need anything. Enjoy the ride! 第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2. 5分，满分37. 5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Pokémon Fun Run 2025 ~ Saturday. 8 November 2025 ~ Flag-off time: 9: 00 am Venue: Marina Barrage Plaza Come and experience this exciting Pokémon adventure on 8 November 2025!

Not only was she one of the few women artists of any nationality to succeed professionally in her time, but she was also the only American artist to exhibit with the French Impressionists. After mastering the requirements of academic painting, Cassatt broke away from tradition and joined Edgar Degas, a close friend and guide, in the exhibition of Impressionist artists in 1879. Cassatt embraced the technique of the Impressionists while developing a highly accomplished individual style. Her indirect views, simplified forms, and flat compositions show the impact of Degas’s work, as well as her study of Japanese prints. Cassatt created a personal language out of the grammar of Impressionism. Most often, she painted women like herself out and about in Paris, or at home, taking tea, reading, sewing, writing letters, and engaging in other familiar activities. Cassatt began to explore her distinctive theme — the mother and child — in 1880, and made a specialty of it after 1893. Cassatt was a skilled artist, accomplished in oil painting as well as in making pastels (粉彩) and prints. Initially, Cassatt worked primarily in oil, but by the early 1890s, printmaking and work in pastels had become her central interests, thanks to Degas, who encouraged her experiments in these media. In all her paintings, pastels, and prints, she revealed herself to be a sensitive and honest witness to the lives of women and children at the end of the nineteenth century. Although Cassatt chose to live abroad for most of her adult life, she always considered herself an American. She was a frequent participant in art exhibitions in the United States. Her advice to American supporters of art, such as Louisine and H. O. Havemeyer, Alexander Cassatt, John G. Johnson, and Berthe Honoré Palmer, helped to create some of the most remarkable and distinguished art collections in the world. 24. Which is most likely one of Cassatt’s works? A. A portrait of a man in a business suit. B. A painting of a busy New York street. C. A pastel of a woman reading at home. D. A landscape of the French countryside. 25. In what way did Edgar Degas influence Cassatt’s art? A. He inspired her to explore different media. B. He introduced her to the Impressionist style. C. He taught her academic painting techniques. D. He guided her in painting women and children. 26. What was Cassatt’s major contribution to American art? A. Hosting art exhibitions for artists in the U. S. B. Funding scholarships for American painters. C. Teaching new techniques to American artists. D. Helping collectors in America build up collections. 27. What is the best title for the text? A. Mary Cassatt: Founder of Impressionist Art B. Mary Cassatt: Master of Still Life and Portraits C. Mary Cassatt: The First Female Impressionist Artist D. Mary Cassatt: American Impressionist and Innovator 【答案】24. C 25. A 26. D 27. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了美国印象派画家玛丽·卡萨特的艺术成就及贡献。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Most often, she painted women like herself out and about in Paris, or at home, taking tea, reading, sewing, writing letters, and engaging in other familiar activities.(卡萨特经常画像她一样在巴黎外出或在家的女性，喝茶、阅读、缝纫、写信和从事其他熟悉的活动)”和第三段“Cassatt was a skilled artist, accomplished in oil painting as well as in making pastels (粉彩) and prints.(卡萨特是一位技艺精湛的艺术家，擅长油画以及粉彩和版画)”可知，C选项“一幅描绘女性在家读书的粉彩画”符合她的绘画内容特点，最有可能是她的作品。故选C。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Initially, Cassatt worked primarily in oil, but by the early 1890s, printmaking and work in pastels had become her central interests, thanks to Degas, who encouraged her experiments in these media.(最初卡萨特主要画油画，但到了19世纪90年代初，多亏了德加鼓励她在版画和粉彩画这些媒介上进行尝试，版画制作和粉彩画创作成了她的主要兴趣)”可知，德加启发了她探索不同的媒介。故选A。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Her advice to American supporters of art, such as Louisine and H. O. Havemeyer, Alexander Cassatt, John G. Johnson, and Berthe Honoré Palmer, helped to create some of the most remarkable and distinguished art collections in the world.(她给美国艺术支持者的建议，如Louisine和H.O.Havemeyer、Alexander Cassatt、John G.Johnson和Berthe HonoréPalmer，帮助创造了世界上一些最非凡和杰出的艺术收藏)”可知，她对美国艺术的主要贡献是帮助美国的收藏家们建立收藏。故选D。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了美国印象派画家玛丽·卡萨特的艺术成就与贡献，她不仅成功地在专业上取得了成就，还发展出了自己独特的风格，并对美国艺术收藏产生了重要影响。因此，D选项“玛丽·卡萨特：美国印象派与创新者”适合作为文章的标题。故选D。 C When hearing the word “genius”, many people automatically visualize a person with crazy and messy hair — someone like Albert Einstein, the famous scientist. They imagine the genius to be hurriedly writing calculations on a whiteboard, perhaps speaking to themselves as they work. This is a widespread idea of what a genius is like, but is it accurate? What makes a person a genius? Psychological studies define a genius as being a person with an above-average intelligence, and many researchers believe that an IQ (Intelligence Quotient) of above 140 indicates that a person has a high potential of genius. Research confirms that natural and inherited intellectual ability does play a role in determining genius, and statistics show that genius tendencies are frequently passed down from generation to generation. But is a person’s natural intelligence strongly linked to genius? Many people who score highly on intelligence tests are not successful in everyday life, and they often do not display any above-average abilities. The 19th century British scientist, Sir Francis Galton, believed that the term “genius” could only be applied to someone who had accomplished a significant achievement. What mattered to Galton was not a person’s potential ability, but how much a person could achieve with that ability. He considered characteristics such as passion and capacity to work hard as important to genius as intelligence. Some believe that genius may almost be a type of psychosis. It is a fact that some of the world’s most celebrated intellectual geniuses display very poor social and emotional skills, and these people mirror the conventional image of the “mad scientist” genius. Others believe one can be a genius in one or two areas but not in others. They believe many people can have elements of genius — such as being a confident speaker or an excellent sportsman. At present there is nothing agreed upon definition of genius. However, it does appear that both genetic and environmental factors contribute toward creating a genius. 28. Why is Einstein mentioned in the first paragraph? A. To highlight his scientific breakthroughs. B. To list different definitions of intelligence. C. To illustrate the common image of genius. D. To explain the role of creativity in science. 29. What did Galton believe was important for defining a genius? A. A person’s social skills. B. A person’s natural intelligence. C. A person’s potential ability. D. A person’s major achievements. 30. What does the underlined word “psychosis” probably mean in paragraph 4? A. Heart disease. B. Mental illness. C. Emotional confusion. D. Physical exhaustion. 31. What can we learn about geniuses from the last paragraph? A. Geniuses think alike. B. Geniuses find their own ways. C. Geniuses are born and made. D. Geniuses are found in adversity. 【答案】28. C 29. D 30. B 31. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要探讨了天才的定义，以及智力、遗传和环境因素对成为天才的影响。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“When hearing the word “genius”, many people automatically visualize a person with crazy and messy hair — someone like Albert Einstein, the famous scientist. They imagine the genius to be hurriedly writing calculations on a whiteboard, perhaps speaking to themselves as they work. This is a widespread idea of what a genius is like...(当听到“天才”这个词时，许多人会自动想象出一个头发疯狂凌乱的人——比如著名科学家阿尔伯特・爱因斯坦。他们想象天才在白板上匆忙地写着计算过程，也许在工作时还会自言自语。这是一种关于天才是什么样的普遍想法)”可知，提到爱因斯坦是为了说明人们对于天才的普遍印象。故选C。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The 19th century British scientist, Sir Francis Galton, believed that the term “genius” could only be applied to someone who had accomplished a significant achievement. What mattered to Galton was not a person’s potential ability, but how much a person could achieve with that ability.(19世纪的英国科学家弗朗西斯・高尔顿爵士认为，“天才”这个词只能用于那些取得了重大成就的人。对高尔顿来说，重要的不是一个人的潜在能力，而是一个人能用这种能力取得多少成就)”可知，高尔顿认为对于定义一个天才来说，一个人的主要成就很重要。故选D。 【30题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段划线词后“It is a fact that some of the world’s most celebrated intellectual geniuses display very poor social and emotional skills, and these people mirror the conventional image of the “mad scientist” genius.(事实上，世界上一些最著名的智力天才表现出非常差的社交和情感技能，而这些人反映了“疯狂科学家”天才的传统形象)”可推知，某些天才表现出类似精神疾病的特征，故划线词psychosis与B项Mental illness“精神疾病”意义相近。故选B。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“At present there is nothing agreed upon definition of genius. However, it does appear that both genetic and environmental factors contribute toward creating a genius.(目前还没有对天才的一致定义。然而，似乎遗传和环境因素都有助于造就一个天才)”可知，天才是天生的因素（遗传）和后天的因素（环境）共同作用的结果，即天才是天生的也是后天培养的。故选C。 D A new study by MIT doctoral student Aidan Toner-Rodgers reveals that artificial intelligence (AI) can significantly boost productivity, challenging the contrasting views of economists Daron Acemoglu and David Autor. Daron Acemoglu, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology professor who recently won the Nobel Prize in economics, worries that artificial intelligence will worsen income inequality and not do all that much for productivity. His friend and colleague David Autor is more hopeful, believing that AI could do just the opposite. Toner-Rodgers’ research, however, offers real-world evidence of AI’s impact on the workforce. Both professors are praising it. “It’s fantastic,” said Acemoglu. “I was floored.” said Autor. The study focused on the introduction of an AI tool to 1, 018 scientists at a materials-science research lab. Historically, material discovery has been a slow, trial-and-error process. AI tools trained on existing materials improved this by generating compound (复合的) recipes based on desired properties. The results were remarkable: researchers discovered 44% more materials, filed 39% more patents, and produced 17% more prototypes (原型). Toner-Rodgers, initially unconvinced, admitted the outcomes exceeded his expectations. However, the study also highlighted differences. Top-performing researchers benefited more from AI, while others saw limited gains, potentially widening income inequality. Acemoglu noted that the lab’s specialized AI tool might not translate broadly, unlike general-purpose models like ChatGPT. Despite productivity gains, 82% of scientists reported reduced job satisfaction, feeling AI took away the part of their jobs — dreaming up new compounds — they enjoyed most. One scientist remarked, “I couldn’t help feeling that much of my education is now worthless.” While the study highlights AI’s potential to speed up innovation, it also raises concerns about uneven benefits and worker dissatisfaction. Autor remains optimistic, arguing that proper training could help workers adapt and reduce inequality. Toner-Rodgers’ research marks a crucial step in understanding AI’s complex impact on productivity and the workforce. 32. What is the main purpose of the first paragraph? A. To explain how AI improves lab productivity. B. To discuss AI’s negative effects on workforce. C. To explain the details of Toner-Rodgers’ study. D. To introduce a new study and contrasting views. 33. What do the percentages in paragraph 4 show? A. A clear advance in AI models. B. A significant boost in productivity. C. A huge improvement in existing materials. D. A striking enhancement in material quality. 34. What made scientists less satisfied about their jobs? A. Limited productivity gains from AI. B. Restricted access to general AI models. C. Reduced involvement in creative design. D. Lower quality of education in scientific fields. 35. What does the author think of Toner-Rodgers’ research? A. It is of significant importance. B. It has some negative impacts. C. It is beneficial to AI’s progress. D. It is complicated to understand. 【答案】32. D 33. B 34. C 35. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了AI可提升生产力新研究及带来的影响。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“A new study by MIT doctoral student Aidan Toner-Rodgers reveals that artificial intelligence (AI) can significantly boost productivity, challenging the contrasting views of economists Daron Acemoglu and David Autor.(麻省理工学院博士生Aidan Toner-Rodgers的一项新研究表明，人工智能（AI）可以显著提高生产力，这挑战了经济学家达龙・阿西莫格鲁和大卫・奥托尔的不同观点)”可知，第一段主要是介绍了一项新研究以及与之相对的观点。故选D。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“AI tools trained on existing materials improved this by generating compound recipes based on desired properties. The results were remarkable: researchers discovered 44% more materials, filed 39% more patents, and produced 17% more prototypes.(基于现有材料进行训练的人工智能工具通过根据所需属性生成复合配方改进了这一过程。结果非常显著：研究人员发现的材料多了44%，申请的专利多了39%，生产的原型多了17%)”可知，这些百分比显示了生产力得到了显著提升。故选B。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Despite productivity gains, 82% of scientists reported reduced job satisfaction, feeling AI took away the part of their jobs — dreaming up new compounds — they enjoyed most.(尽管生产力有所提高，但82%的科学家报告称工作满意度下降，他们觉得人工智能夺走了他们工作中最喜欢的部分——构思新化合物)”可知，减少了他们在创造性设计方面的参与度使得科学家们对工作不太满意。故选C。 35题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Toner-Rodgers’ research marks a crucial step in understanding AI’s complex impact on productivity and the workforce.(Toner-Rodgers的研究标志着在理解人工智能对生产力和劳动力的复杂影响方面迈出了关键一步)”可知，作者认为Toner-Rodgers的研究具有重要意义。故选A。 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。 When we look at a forest, it’s easy to see a collection of trees standing tall and separate, each seemingly independent. ___36___ Under the forest floor lies a hidden network — a web of roots and fungi (真菌) that allow trees to “talk” to each other. This system, often referred to as the “wood wide web”, enables trees to support one another in ways that were once unimaginable. The primary way trees “talk” to each other is through their roots and an underground network called mycorrhizal (菌根) fungi. Attaching to tree roots, these fungi create a vast web that connects multiple trees within a forest. In exchange for sugars produced through photosynthesis (光合作用), the fungi provide trees with essential nutrients. ___37___ Through this underground system, trees share information and send signals. When a tree is attacked by harmful insects, it can release chemical messages through the network. ___38___ Then neighboring trees may strengthen their defenses by producing chemicals in their leaves to protect themselves. ___39___ Rather than managing individual trees, conservation efforts must focus on preserving the forest’s wholeness. Beyond that, reforestation efforts can benefit from understanding tree communication. By planting diverse species and fostering the growth of mycorrhizal fungi, restoration projects can create ecosystems that are more self-sustaining. Understanding this hidden language shows us clearly that all living things on Earth are linked together. ___40___ By protecting these ecosystems, we protect not only trees but the complicated networks that support all life within them. A. Not all trees communicate in the same way. B. These chemical signals can act as warnings. C. But the messages trees send are not easy to find. D. It also reminds us how critical forests are to keep life going. E. However, research reveals that trees are far from being alone. F. The idea of tree communication reshapes how we protect forests. G. This cooperation is the core of the forest’s communication system. 【答案】36. E 37. G 38. B 39. F 40. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了树木之间通过地下菌根真菌网络进行交流与合作，揭示了森林生态系统中树木之间复杂而微妙的联系，并强调了保护森林对于维持地球生命网络的重要性。 【36题详解】 上文“When we look at a forest, it’s easy to see a collection of trees standing tall and separate, each seemingly independent.(当我们看到一片森林时，很容易看到一群树木高耸而独立，每一棵似乎都是独立的)”描述树木看似独立，下文“Under the forest floor lies a hidden network — a web of roots and fungi that allow trees to “talk” to each other.(在森林的地表下隐藏着一个网络——一个由根和真菌组成的网络，它使树木能够相互“交谈”)”说明树木之间并不是独立的，它们之间有联系，E选项“然而，研究表明树木远非孤立存在”承上启下，选项中的However与上文形成转折关系，且trees are far from being alone与下文中的a hidden network相呼应，说明树木之间有联系，并不是独立的，符合语境。故选E。 【37题详解】 上文“In exchange for sugars produced through photosynthesis, the fungi provide trees with essential nutrients.(作为通过光合作用产生的糖的交换，真菌为树木提供必需的营养物质)”说明真菌和树木之间是互利的关系，G选项“这种合作是森林交流系统的核心”说明这种互利关系的重要性，选项中的This cooperation指代上文这句话，符合语境。故选G。 【38题详解】 上文“When a tree is attacked by harmful insects, it can release chemical messages through the network.(当一棵树受到有害昆虫的攻击时，它可以通过网络释放化学信息)”说明树木会释放化学信息，B选项“这些化学信号可以起到警告作用”说明这种化学信息的作用，承接上文，选项中的These chemical signals指代上文中的chemical messages，符合语境。故选B。 【39题详解】 下文“Rather than managing individual trees, conservation efforts must focus on preserving the forest’s wholeness. Beyond that, reforestation efforts can benefit from understanding tree communication.(保护工作必须侧重于保护森林的完整性，而不是管理每棵树。除此之外，重新造林的努力可以从了解树木的交流中受益)”说明保护森林的两个方法，F选项“树木交流的想法重塑了我们保护森林的方式”引出下文关于保护森林方式的内容，概括本段内容，符合语境。故选F。 【40题详解】 上文“Understanding this hidden language shows us clearly that all living things on Earth are linked together.(理解这种隐藏的语言让我们清楚地看到，地球上所有的生物都是相互联系的)”说明理解树木之间的交流让我们看到了地球上所有生物之间的联系，D选项“这也提醒我们森林对维持生命的重要性”说明这种联系的重要性，选项中的It also reminds us与上文中的shows us clearly相呼应，符合语境。故选D。 第三部分 语言知识运用（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。 When I turned twelve, my parents bought me a mobile phone. ___41___ , they were against the idea, but I ___42___ them that it would help them stay connected with me and know where I was.

I had never been there before and was eagerly anticipating the magical experience it promised. There was another reason why this trip was special. My father was a person who worked long hours. I longed to spend time with him. I wanted to sit down with my father, whom I loved more than life, and just talk. It always seemed like there was never time. The day finally arrived when I was allowed to pack. I chose only my favourite clothes and my Disney autograph (签名) book. I set my suitcase down on my bed and smiled. I was ready. I did not get any sleep that night. I lay in my bed and stared out the window. I knew that my father’s work was going to be left at home, finally. After an early breakfast, we hit the open road. For the first two hours, it was all smooth sailing, until I unexpectedly felt a sharp jerk (震动). We pulled over to the side of the road, and my father said something about the engine being shot. He decided that the easiest thing to do would be to flag someone down and get a ride to town. An hour later, my father was still waving his hands at each and every passing car but it was not doing any good. Not a single soul would stop to assist my helpless family. Finally, my father gave up and wanted to walk into town. I was certain it was a very long distance. He just said that he would not let anything ruin this trip for me. I begged him to stay and try again. After thinking it over, he decided to stay by our car and keep waving for help. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 After what felt like forever, a truck finally pulled over. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On our way home, while stopping for gas, I saw a familiar figure. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 After what felt like forever, a truck finally pulled over. The driver, a middle-aged man with a warm smile, offered to help us fix the car. This man did not even know us, and he did not expect anything in return. What I felt at that moment was indescribable. As we waited, for the first time in years, my father didn’t check his phone. Instead, he asked me about school, my friends, and even my little autograph book. By noon, the car had been fixed, and we continued our journey, finally arriving at Disneyland, where we spent the rest of the day filled with laughter and unforgettable memories. On our way home, while stopping for gas, I saw a familiar figure. It was the man who had rescued us this morning. My father, usually reserved, walked over and shook his hand firmly. “Thank you for saving our trip,” he said. The man simply nodded, “Glad to help.” As we drove off, I glanced at my father. His eyes were softer, and his shoulders were relaxed. The vacation hadn’t gone as planned, but it gave me something even better. None of this would have been possible without that man’s act of kindness. 【解析】 【导语】本文以作者和父亲的迪士尼之旅为线索展开，主要讲述了作者渴望与工作繁忙的父亲共度时光，终于等到去迪士尼度假的机会，却在途中汽车抛锚，历经艰难等待救援的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“在感觉仿佛过了永远那么久之后，一辆卡车终于停了下来。”可知，第一段可描写卡车司机帮忙修车，在等待过程中作者和父亲进行了交流，之后修好车继续旅程并在迪士尼度过愉快时光。 ②由第二段首句内容“在我们回家的路上，停车加油时，我看到了一个熟悉的身影。”可知，第二段可描写看到帮忙的卡车司机，父亲表达感谢，这次经历让作者和父亲关系更亲近且意识到善良的重要性。 2. 续写线索：卡车停下——司机帮忙修车——作者和父亲交流——修好车去迪士尼——回家途中遇司机——父亲感谢司机——作者感悟 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①修理：fix/repair ②到达：arrive at/reach ③充满：filled with/full of 情绪类 ①难忘的：unforgettable/memorable ②高兴的：glad/delighted 【点睛】【高分句型1】As we waited, for the first time in years, my father didn’t check his phone.
