It is a form of funerary art buried with the emperor in 210-209 BC with the purpose of protecting him in his afterlife. The Terracotta Army was discovered in Lintong County, Shaanxi, on 29 March 1974. History The construction of the tomb began in 246 BC, soon after Ying Zheng (then aged 13) succeeded his father as King of Qin, and the project eventually involved 700,000 workers. Sima Qian wrote that Qin Shi Huang was buried with palaces, towers, valuable artifacts and wondrous objects. Terracotta figures The terracotta figures are life-sized, typically ranging from 175 cm to about 200 cm (the officers are typically taller). They vary in height, uniform and hairstyle in accordance with rank. The figures are of these general types: The quantity of infantry warriors (步兵俑) is the most in the three pits of Terracotta Army, around 7,000 pieces unearthed. According to their diverse headwear, dressing styles and shoes, people can recognize their status easily. Each cavalry warrior (骑兵俑) stands in front of its horse. Both of the warriors and horses are life-sized. These vivid cavalry figures and horses are the real reflection of the cavalry image of the Qin Dynasty. The kneeling archers wear long robes covered with armor and squared shoes. Several kneeling archers found in pit 2 are the best-preserved and attract lots of tourists for their incredible colorful appearance with black hair, pink faces, vermilion headbands, powdery green coat armors, sky-blue and pink leg guards. 1. What is specially mentioned about the kneeling archers? A. The colour. B. The number. C. The size. D. The vividness. 2. What can we learn from the passage? A. The Terracotta soldiers were buried with Qin Shi Huang. B. The Terracotta Army simply consists of all kinds of warriors. C. The terracotta figures were presented variously in line with rank. D. The Terracotta Army was constructed to honor the first emperor of China. 3. Where might this text be taken from? A. A tourist brochure. B. A news report. C. A magazine article. D. An advertisement. B Eppie’s cheeks were flushed with distress. “Thank you, sir and madam. But I can’t leave my father.” Eppie went back to Silas’s chair, and put an arm round his neck, brushing the tears from her eyes. Godfrey was extremely annoyed. He wanted to do what he thought was his duty. And adopting Eppie would make him feel much less guilty about his past. “But, Eppie, you must agree,” he cried. “You are my daughter! Silas Marner, you know, Eppie’s mother was my wife and she is my own child.” Eppie’s face went white. Silas, who had been relieved by hearing Eppie’s answer to Godfrey, now answered bitterly, “Then, sir, why didn’t you confess this sixteen years ago, before I began to love her? Why do you come to take her away now, when it’s like taking the heart out of my body? God gave her to me because you abandoned her! And He considers her mine!” “I think, Marner,” he said firmly, “that you should consider what’s best for Eppie. You shouldn’t stand in her way when she could have a better life.” Silas was silent for a moment. He was worried that perhaps Godfrey was right, and that it was selfish of him to keep Eppie. At last he brought out the difficult words. “All right. Speak to the child. I won't prevent her from going.” Godfrey and his wife were relieved to hear this, and thought Eppie would now agree. “Eppie, my dear,” said Godfrey, “although I haven’t been a good father to you so far, I want to do my best for you now.” But Eppie did not come forward this time. She stood by Silas’s side, holding his hand in hers, and spoke almost coldly. “Thank you for your kind offer. But I wouldn’t be happy if I left father. He’d have nobody if I weren’t here. Nobody shall ever come between him and me!” “But you must make sure, Eppie,” said Silas worriedly, “that you won't be sorry, if you decide to stay with poor people. You could have a much better life.” “I’ll never be sorry,” said Eppie firmly. “I don’t want to be rich, if I can’t live with the people I know and love.” 4. Why did Godfrey want to claim Eppie back? A. To please his present wife. B. To repair his public reputation. C. To ease his sense of guilt. D. To make things easier for Silas. 5. How did Silas feel according to paragraph 3? A. Annoyed. B. Relieved. C. Surprised. D. Confused. 6. What made Silas finally let Eppie make her own decision? A. Pressure from Godfrey. B. His deep love for her. C. Fear of legal consequences. D. His desire for moral superiority. 7. What values does Eppie’s decision mirror? A. Putting personal freedom first. B. Living up to family expectations. C. Focusing on material comforts. D. Valuing emotional bonds over wealth. C Lots of factors contribute to how healthy a person is. Some of these are obvious, like the medical care they receive. But some less obvious factors can be even more important! Some examples include access to food, housing, healthcare, social support and education. What good does education do to you? Research shows that education can lengthen your life expectancy! Getting more education leads to better employment, higher income, and access to healthcare. And all of these improve overall health. So, people with more education tend to have higher life expectancies than people with less education. Many studies show more education is associated with longer lives. But no one has calculated exactly how much longer or how much mortality risk goes down with each year of schooling. In other words, how does education lower a person’s risk of death? Of course, everyone still dies, but a lower mortality risk means a higher chance of a long life. We reviewed previous studies that looked at education and mortality, searching seven databases of scientific studies from around the world. We gathered all the studies on this topic published between 1980 and 2023. In total, we identified 603 studies from 59 countries. We analyzed the results from all these studies to measure how education affected mortality risk. Besides, we also looked at differences in the effect of education at different ages. Finally, we checked the effect of education across Socio-Demographic Index levels. We found that getting more education lowers mortality risk. With each year of education, an adult’s risk of death goes down by about 2%. This effect is greater in younger adults than in older ones. But even people over 70 years old benefit from the positive effects of education! When we looked at countries at different stages of social and economic development, we didn’t find different results. This suggests that more years of schooling leads to longer lives in both rich and poor countries. 8. According to the author, education can be . A. a pathway to health B. a measure of success C. a source of stress D. a chance for the rich 9. What does the underlined word “mortality” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Health. B. Death. C. Virtue. D. Survival. 10. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The methods. B. The arguments. C. The findings. D. The suggestions. 11. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. People in poor countries benefit more from education. B. The impact of education on young people is relatively greater. C. Education does affect how long people live in different countries. D. People in rich countries have chances to gain further education easily. D Lots of people are concerned about the ability that artificial intelligence (AI) has to copy their voices. When AI is used to make false recordings of things that a person never said, it is called a “deepfake.” However, more and more stories are coming out about how AI is helping people who can no longer speak, regain a version of their voice. For example, country music singer Randy Travis recently released his first new song in over 10 years with the help of Al technology. Travis suffered a stroke and can no longer sing. The technology is also able to help people like 21-year-old Alexis Bogan from the eastern state of Rhode Island. Bogan used to love singing along with songs by her favorite musicians like Taylor Swift and Zach Bryan. She was a popular singer in her school music group as a teenager. But a surprise diagnosis changed all that. Last August, doctors removed a tumor from the back of her brain. The surgery was a success. But after doctors removed a tube used to help her breathe during the operation, Bogan had trouble speaking. Last month, Bogan got her voice back in a way. Experts created a tool for her using AI. She uses a text-to-voice app to order her favorite coffee at Starbucks. She uses it by writing words in her phone and holding it up at the coffee shop so servers can hear her. The app uses OpenAI’s voice tool. Bogan’s doctors say her case shows why AI can be helpful. Dr. Rohaid Ali is training in neuroscience at Brown University’s medical school. He called Bogan “a trailblazer” He said the technology can help millions of people with brain injuries, throat cancer or other diseases that prevent a person from speaking. Fatima Mirza is another doctor working on the project. She said there is a risk that AI technology can be used by bad people, “but we can’t forget about the patient and the social good.” She said the technology permits Bogan to have something close to her true voice. 12. Why is the story of Alexis Bogan mentioned? A. To show her positive personality. B. To suggest her interest in politics. C. To advertise the function of AI technology. D. To prove the necessity and importance of AI. 13. How is the passage mainly developed? A. By offering data. B. By listing examples. C. By making comparisons. D. By giving explanations. 14. What is Fatima Mirza’s attitude towards AI technology? A. Unclear. B. Dismissive. C. Doubtful. D. Approving. 15. What can be a suitable title for the passage? A. Bogan: A successful example of using AI. B. Bogan: A lucky girl with an amazing experience. C. AI: A tool capable of helping people to “speak”. D. AI: A tool with advantages outweighing disadvantages. 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。 If you find it hard to say no or struggle to voice your own needs, you might be a people pleaser. ___16___ But therapists warn that people pleasers could be harming their emotional and mental health and it could be so unconscious and automatic, you might not even realise you’re one of them. ___17___ Aside from the common sign of constantly saying yes to other people’s ideas plans and wishes, many people pleasers will never really vocalise their own needs or ideas whether that’s at work, at home, with friends or in relationships. Watch out for whether you say “sorry” more than “no” too. ___18___ They may even excuse other people’s behaviour when there’s no need. What’s the long-term damage? Pleasing others before yourself will continue to embed (嵌入) the internal belief that you’re not worthy or lovable. Meanwhile you are giving people permission to tread on (凌驾) you, but inside you are hurt and feel rejected, resentful and unheard. How to stop people pleasing? Remember that it is not your fault. If your people pleasing behaviour came from a painful place, be proud and grateful to yourself that you found a way to survive and give yourself permission to let that go. Stop asking permission for things you do not have to ask permission for. ___19___ At the same time, if you do need help, ask for it. Put in boundaries. Start to say no to things that feel uncomfortable, or cause you stress or inconvenience. ___20___ Practise being more decisive. It can feel scary at first. This doesn’t mean being aggressive and forceful. A. How many types of people pleasers are there? B. What are the signs that you’re a people pleaser? C. Don’t give in just because other people didn’t like it. D. On the face of it, people pleasing might not sound like a negative trait. E. Realise you do not need other people’s opinion or approval all the time. F. It might be time to put yourself first instead of always prioritizing everyone else. G. “Sorry” is an easy word for people to use while “no” is rarely used in their vocabulary. 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。 I’m a 66-year-old harp (竖琴) student.

As kids of the lab scientists, Mary and Tom often observed the emperor penguins that were studied to understand how they adapted to extreme temperatures, which might aid human survival. “We’re thirteen years old, Tom. It’s time to grow up and stop playing with the lab penguins, ”said Mary as she started cleaning. “They’re research animals, not pets.” “But the birds listen to me!” insisted Tom, his breath forming a cloud in the freezing air. Suddenly, an alarm rang out and red lights flashed, signaling a problem. The kids rushed over to look into it. She checked the habitat monitor and found that the temperature had gone down a lot. “The heater must be broken!” Mary quickly sent a message to their parents’ research team, who were all conducting outdoor studies. “It’s freezing and let’s get out of here!” Mary warned. They ran to the lab’s heavy metal door, only to find the door sealed shut by thick ice. With the adults away and no way to escape, the kids would have to deal with the freezing conditions until help arrived. Time dragged as Mary and Tom anxiously waited. The increasing cold caused them to shake. “I wonder what emperor penguins do in extreme cold, since they stay in the pole all winter instead of going somewhere warmer,” asked Mary. “They huddle (挤作一团),” Tom answered. “They huddle together tightly so that the birds in the middle will be warm enough.” “What about the ones on the edge?” Mary asked. “They push their way towards the center, and then move back out to the edge, and struggle back again. Scientists in the early 21st century recorded it.” He replied as he stared at the large crowd of the penguins in the lab. 注意： 1．所续写短文的词数应为150词左右； 2．续写部分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。 In a flash, Tom had an idea to keep warm. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ About two hours later, their parents rushed into the lab, screaming out the kids’ names. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024～2025学年度第二学期期中考试 高二英语试题 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 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.

Silas Marner, you know, Eppie’s mother was my wife and she is my own child.” Eppie’s face went white. Silas, who had been relieved by hearing Eppie’s answer to Godfrey, now answered bitterly, “Then, sir, why didn’t you confess this sixteen years ago, before I began to love her? Why do you come to take her away now, when it’s like taking the heart out of my body? God gave her to me because you abandoned her! And He considers her mine!” “I think, Marner,” he said firmly, “that you should consider what’s best for Eppie. You shouldn’t stand in her way when she could have a better life.” Silas was silent for a moment. He was worried that perhaps Godfrey was right, and that it was selfish of him to keep Eppie. At last he brought out the difficult words. “All right. Speak to the child. I won't prevent her from going.” Godfrey and his wife were relieved to hear this, and thought Eppie would now agree. “Eppie, my dear,” said Godfrey, “although I haven’t been a good father to you so far, I want to do my best for you now.” But Eppie did not come forward this time. She stood by Silas’s side, holding his hand in hers, and spoke almost coldly. “Thank you for your kind offer. But I wouldn’t be happy if I left father. He’d have nobody if I weren’t here. Nobody shall ever come between him and me!” “But you must make sure, Eppie,” said Silas worriedly, “that you won't be sorry, if you decide to stay with poor people. You could have a much better life.” “I’ll never be sorry,” said Eppie firmly. “I don’t want to be rich, if I can’t live with the people I know and love.” 4. Why did Godfrey want to claim Eppie back? A. To please his present wife. B. To repair his public reputation. C. To ease his sense of guilt. D. To make things easier for Silas. 5. How did Silas feel according to paragraph 3? A. Annoyed. B. Relieved. C. Surprised. D. Confused. 6. What made Silas finally let Eppie make her own decision? A. Pressure from Godfrey. B. His deep love for her. C. Fear of legal consequences. D. His desire for moral superiority. 7. What values does Eppie’s decision mirror? A. Putting personal freedom first. B. Living up to family expectations. C. Focusing on material comforts. D. Valuing emotional bonds over wealth. 【答案】4. C 5. A 6. B 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Godfrey想认回Eppie，但Eppie选择留在养父Silas身边的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“And adopting Eppie would make him feel much less guilty about his past.(收养埃皮会让他对自己的过去少一些内疚感)”可知，Godfrey想要认回Eppie是为了减轻他的内疚感。故选C。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Silas, who had been relieved by hearing Eppie’s answer to Godfrey, now answered bitterly, “Then, sir, why didn’t you confess this sixteen years ago, before I began to love her? Why do you come to take her away now, when it’s like taking the heart out of my body? God gave her to me because you abandoned her! And He considers her mine!”(西拉斯听了埃皮对戈弗雷的回答后松了一口气，现在却愤怒地回答道：“那么，先生，你为什么不在十六年前，在我开始爱她之前承认这一点呢？你为什么现在来把她带走，这就像把我的心从身体里掏出来一样？上帝把她给了我，因为你抛弃了她！上帝认为她是我的！”)”可推知，Silas此时很生气。故选A。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“Silas was silent for a moment. He was worried that perhaps Godfrey was right, and that it was selfish of him to keep Eppie. At last he brought out the difficult words. “All right. Speak to the child. I won't prevent her from going.”(西拉斯沉默了一会儿。他担心也许戈弗雷是对的，他留住埃皮是自私的。最后，他艰难地说出了这些话。“好吧。和孩子谈谈。我不会阻止她离开的。”)”可知，Silas是因为深爱着埃皮，担心自己因为爱她而留住她对Eppie不好，所以才让埃皮自己做决定，是他对埃皮深深的爱让他这样做。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段““I’ll never be sorry,” said Eppie firmly. “I don’t want to be rich, if I can’t live with the people I know and love.”(“我永远不会后悔，”埃皮坚定地说。“如果我不能和我认识和爱的人生活在一起，我就不想变得富有。”)”可推知，Eppie的决定反映了她重视情感联系胜过财富的价值观。故选D。 C Lots of factors contribute to how healthy a person is. Some of these are obvious, like the medical care they receive. But some less obvious factors can be even more important! Some examples include access to food, housing, healthcare, social support and education. What good does education do to you? Research shows that education can lengthen your life expectancy! Getting more education leads to better employment, higher income, and access to healthcare. And all of these improve overall health. So, people with more education tend to have higher life expectancies than people with less education. Many studies show more education is associated with longer lives. But no one has calculated exactly how much longer or how much mortality risk goes down with each year of schooling. In other words, how does education lower a person’s risk of death? Of course, everyone still dies, but a lower mortality risk means a higher chance of a long life. We reviewed previous studies that looked at education and mortality, searching seven databases of scientific studies from around the world. We gathered all the studies on this topic published between 1980 and 2023. In total, we identified 603 studies from 59 countries. We analyzed the results from all these studies to measure how education affected mortality risk. Besides, we also looked at differences in the effect of education at different ages. Finally, we checked the effect of education across Socio-Demographic Index levels. We found that getting more education lowers mortality risk. With each year of education, an adult’s risk of death goes down by about 2%. This effect is greater in younger adults than in older ones. But even people over 70 years old benefit from the positive effects of education! When we looked at countries at different stages of social and economic development, we didn’t find different results. This suggests that more years of schooling leads to longer lives in both rich and poor countries. 8. According to the author, education can be . A. a pathway to health B. a measure of success C. a source of stress D. a chance for the rich 9. What does the underlined word “mortality” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Health. B. Death. C. Virtue. D. Survival. 10. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The methods. B. The arguments. C. The findings. D. The suggestions. 11. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. People in poor countries benefit more from education. B. The impact of education on young people is relatively greater. C. Education does affect how long people live in different countries. D. People in rich countries have chances to gain further education easily. 【答案】8. A 9. B 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要探讨了教育与健康的关系。研究表明教育可延长寿命、降低死亡风险，文章通过分析大量研究阐述其影响机制及在不同人群和国家的共性表现。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“What good does education do to you? Research shows that education can lengthen your life expectancy! Getting more education leads to better employment, higher income, and access to healthcare. And all of these improve overall health. So, people with more education tend to have higher life expectancies than people with less education. (教育对你有什么好处？研究表明，教育可以延长你的预期寿命！接受更多的教育会带来更好的就业机会、更高的收入以及获得医疗保健的机会。而所有这些都能改善整体健康状况)”可知，教育可以是通向健康的一条途径。故选A项。 【9题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第三段最后一句“Of course, everyone still dies, but a lower mortality risk means a higher chance of a long life. (当然，每个人最终还是会死去，但较低的死亡风险意味着长寿的几率更高。)”可知，人人都会死去，但较低的“mortality”风险意味着长寿的机会更高，因此“mortality”应该是与死亡相关。故选B项。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“We reviewed previous studies that looked at education and mortality, searching seven databases of scientific studies from around the world. We gathered all the studies on this topic published between 1980 and 2023. In total, we identified 603 studies from 59 countries. We analyzed the results from all these studies to measure how education affected mortality risk. Besides, we also looked at differences in the effect of education at different ages. Finally, we checked the effect of education across Socio-Demographic Index levels. (我们回顾了以往关于教育与死亡率的研究，检索了来自全球的七个科学研究数据库。我们收集了1980年至2023年间发表的关于这个主题的所有研究。总共确定了来自59个国家的603项研究。我们分析了所有这些研究的结果，以衡量教育如何影响死亡风险。此外，我们还研究了不同年龄段教育影响的差异。最后，我们检查了不同社会人口指数水平下教育的影响。)”可知，该段主要讲述了研究人员回顾以前关于教育和死亡率的研究，分析这些研究结果以衡量教育对死亡风险的影响，还研究了教育在不同年龄的影响差异以及在不同社会人口指数水平下的影响，这些都是在阐述研究的方法和过程。故选A项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“We found that getting more education lowers mortality risk. With each year of education, an adult's risk of death goes down by about 2%. This effect is greater in younger adults than in older ones. But even people over 70 years old benefit from the positive effects of education! When we looked at countries at different stages of social and economic development, we didn't find different results. This suggests that more years of schooling leads to longer lives in both rich and poor countries. (我们发现，接受更多的教育可以降低死亡风险。对于成年人来说，每接受一年的教育，死亡风险就会降低约2%。这种影响在年轻人中比在老年人中更大。但即使是70岁以上的人也能从教育的积极影响中受益！当我们观察处于不同社会和经济发展阶段的国家时，我们没有发现不同的结果。这表明，在富裕国家和贫穷国家，接受更多年的学校教育都能使人更长寿。)”可知，接受更多教育能降低死亡风险，每多接受一年教育，成年人的死亡风险下降约2%，这种影响在年轻人中比在老年人中更大，而且在不同社会经济发展阶段的国家都发现更多的受教育年限会带来更长的寿命，所以可以推断出教育确实会影响不同国家人们的寿命长短。故选C项。 D Lots of people are concerned about the ability that artificial intelligence (AI) has to copy their voices. When AI is used to make false recordings of things that a person never said, it is called a “deepfake.” However, more and more stories are coming out about how AI is helping people who can no longer speak, regain a version of their voice. For example, country music singer Randy Travis recently released his first new song in over 10 years with the help of Al technology. Travis suffered a stroke and can no longer sing. The technology is also able to help people like 21-year-old Alexis Bogan from the eastern state of Rhode Island. Bogan used to love singing along with songs by her favorite musicians like Taylor Swift and Zach Bryan. She was a popular singer in her school music group as a teenager. But a surprise diagnosis changed all that. Last August, doctors removed a tumor from the back of her brain. The surgery was a success. But after doctors removed a tube used to help her breathe during the operation, Bogan had trouble speaking. Last month, Bogan got her voice back in a way. Experts created a tool for her using AI. She uses a text-to-voice app to order her favorite coffee at Starbucks. She uses it by writing words in her phone and holding it up at the coffee shop so servers can hear her. The app uses OpenAI’s voice tool. Bogan’s doctors say her case shows why AI can be helpful. Dr. Rohaid Ali is training in neuroscience at Brown University’s medical school. He called Bogan “a trailblazer” He said the technology can help millions of people with brain injuries, throat cancer or other diseases that prevent a person from speaking. Fatima Mirza is another doctor working on the project. She said there is a risk that AI technology can be used by bad people, “but we can’t forget about the patient and the social good.” She said the technology permits Bogan to have something close to her true voice. 12. Why is the story of Alexis Bogan mentioned? A To show her positive personality. B. To suggest her interest in politics. C. To advertise the function of AI technology. D. To prove the necessity and importance of AI. 13. How is the passage mainly developed? A. By offering data. B. By listing examples. C. By making comparisons. D. By giving explanations. 14. What is Fatima Mirza’s attitude towards AI technology? A. Unclear. B. Dismissive. C. Doubtful. D. Approving. 15. What can be a suitable title for the passage? A. Bogan: A successful example of using AI. B. Bogan: A lucky girl with an amazing experience. C. AI: A tool capable of helping people to “speak”. D. AI: A tool with advantages outweighing disadvantages. 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了人工智能能帮助失语者重新“发声”的情况。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“However, more and more stories are coming out about how AI is helping people who can no longer speak, regain a version of their voice.(然而，越来越多关于人工智能如何帮助那些无法再说话的人重新找回某种程度上属于他们自己声音的故事涌现出来)”以及第六段“Bogan’s doctors say her case shows why AI can be helpful.(博根的医生说，她的病例说明了人工智能为何会有所帮助)”可推知，提到Alexis Bogan 的故事是为了证明人工智能在帮助失语者方面的必要性和重要性。故选D。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“For example, country music singer Randy Travis recently released his first new song in over 10 years with the help of Al technology.(例如，乡村音乐歌手兰迪·特拉维斯最近在人工智能技术的帮助下发布了10多年来的第一首新歌)”以及第三段“The technology is also able to help people like 21-year-old Alexis Bogan from the eastern state of Rhode Island.(这项技术还能够帮助来自罗得岛东部的21岁的亚历克西斯·博根这样的人)”可推知，文章主要是通过列举例子来展开的。故选B。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“She said there is a risk that AI technology can be used by bad people, ‘but we can’t forget about the patient and the social good.’ She said the technology permits Bogan to have something close to her true voice.(她说，人工智能技术有可能被坏人利用，“但我们不能忘记病人和社会利益。”她说，这项技术让博根能够拥有接近她真实声音的东西)”可知，Fatima Mirza对AI技术的态度是支持的。故选D。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“However, more and more stories are coming out about how AI is helping people who can no longer speak, regain a version of their voice.(然而，越来越多的故事浮出水面，讲述人工智能如何帮助那些无法说话的人重新获得他们的声音)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要讲述了人工智能能够帮助像Randy Travis和Alexis Bogan这样不能说话的人重新获得 “声音”，因此C选项“AI: A tool capable of helping people to “speak”.(AI：一种能够帮助人们“说话”的工具)”是本文的最佳标题。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可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 If you find it hard to say no or struggle to voice your own needs, you might be a people pleaser. ___16___ But therapists warn that people pleasers could be harming their emotional and mental health and it could be so unconscious and automatic, you might not even realise you’re one of them. ___17___ Aside from the common sign of constantly saying yes to other people’s ideas, plans and wishes, many people pleasers will never really vocalise their own needs or ideas whether that’s at work, at home, with friends or in relationships. Watch out for whether you say “sorry” more than “no” too. ___18___ They may even excuse other people’s behaviour when there’s no need. What’s the long-term damage? Pleasing others before yourself will continue to embed (嵌入) the internal belief that you’re not worthy or lovable. Meanwhile you are giving people permission to tread on (凌驾) you, but inside you are hurt and feel rejected, resentful and unheard. How to stop people pleasing? Remember that it is not your fault. If your people pleasing behaviour came from a painful place, be proud and grateful to yourself that you found a way to survive and give yourself permission to let that go. Stop asking permission for things you do not have to ask permission for. ___19___ At the same time, if you do need help, ask for it. Put in boundaries. Start to say no to things that feel uncomfortable, or cause you stress or inconvenience. ___20___ Practise being more decisive It can feel scary at first.

C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了如何避免成为讨好者。 【16题详解】 根据上文“If you find it hard to say no or struggle to voice your own needs, you might be a people pleaser.(如果你发现很难说“不”或者很难表达自己的需求，你可能是一个讨人喜欢的人)”以及后文“But therapists warn that people pleasers could be harming their emotional and mental health and it could be so unconscious and automatic, you might not even realise you’re one of them.(但治疗师警告说，取悦他人的人可能会损害他们的情绪和心理健康，这可能是无意识和自动的，你甚至可能没有意识到你是其中之一)”可知，后文与本句构成转折关系，推测本句是在说明讨人喜欢的人的正面特点。故D选项“从表面上看，讨人喜欢可能听起来不像一个负面的特质”符合语境，故选D。 【17题详解】 根据本段内容“Aside from the common sign of constantly saying yes to other people’s ideas, plans and wishes, many people pleasers will never really vocalise their own needs or ideas whether that’s at work, at home, with friends or in relationships.(除了经常对别人的想法、计划和愿望说“是”这一常见迹象外，无论是在工作中、在家里、在朋友面前还是在恋爱中，许多讨好者都不会真正说出自己的需求或想法)”可知，本段主要列举了讨好者的一些特点。故B选项“有什么迹象表明你是一个讨人喜欢的人？”符合语境，适合做小标题，故选B。 【18题详解】 根据上文“Watch out for whether you say “sorry” more than “no” too.(注意你说“对不起”的次数是否多于说“不”)”以及后文“They may even excuse other people’s behaviour when there’s no need.(他们甚至会在没有必要的时候原谅别人的行为)”可知，本句承接上文，说明说“对不起”和“不”分别体现了什么。故G选项“‘对不起’对人们来说是一个容易使用的词，而‘不’在他们的词汇中很少使用”符合语境，故选G。 【19题详解】 根据上文“Stop asking permission for things you do not have to ask permission for.(不要再为你不需要许可的事情请求许可)”可知，上文建议“不要再为你不需要许可的事情请求许可”，E选项approval对应上文permission。故E选项“意识到你并不总是需要别人的意见或认可”符合语境，故选E。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Put in boundaries. Start to say no to things that feel uncomfortable, or cause you stress or inconvenience.(设定界限。开始对那些让你感到不舒服，或给你带来压力或不便的事情说不)”可知，本地建议设定界限，对让自己不舒服的事情说不，即尊重自己的内心感受，不要过于在意别人的喜好。故C选项“不要因为别人不喜欢就放弃”符合语境，故选C。 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。 I’m a 66-year-old harp (竖琴) student.

Organized by our teachers, we were divided into groups to compete to collect as much waste as possible. While jogging, we picked up litter along the paths. By the end, we’d filled multiple bags and left the park sparkling clean. It was really a “clean” exercise and incredibly rewarding! Not only did we exercise, but we also contributed to the environment. I’ve realized how small efforts can make a big difference. Have you tried anything similar? Looking forward to hearing from you!

As kids of the lab scientists Mary and Tom often observed the emperor penguins that were studied to understand how they adapted to extreme temperatures, which might aid human survival. “We’re thirteen years old, Tom. It’s time to grow up and stop playing with the lab penguins, ”said Mary as she started cleaning. “They’re research animals, not pets.” “But the birds listen to me!” insisted Tom, his breath forming a cloud in the freezing air. Suddenly, an alarm rang out and red lights flashed, signaling a problem. The kids rushed over to look into it. She checked the habitat monitor and found that the temperature had gone down a lot. “The heater must be broken!” Mary quickly sent a message to their parents’ research team, who were all conducting outdoor studies. “It’s freezing and let’s get out of here!” Mary warned. They ran to the lab’s heavy metal door, only to find the door sealed shut by thick ice. With the adults away and no way to escape, the kids would have to deal with the freezing conditions until help arrived. Time dragged as Mary and Tom anxiously waited. The increasing cold caused them to shake. “I wonder what emperor penguins do in extreme cold, since they stay in the pole all winter instead of going somewhere warmer,” asked Mary. “They huddle (挤作一团),” Tom answered. “They huddle together tightly so that the birds in the middle will be warm enough.” “What about the ones on the edge?” Mary asked. “They push their way towards the center, and then move back out to the edge, and struggle back again. Scientists in the early 21st century recorded it.” He replied as he stared at the large crowd of the penguins in the lab. 注意： 1．所续写短文的词数应为150词左右； 2．续写部分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。 In a flash, Tom had an idea to keep warm. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ About two hours later, their parents rushed into the lab, screaming out the kids’ names. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Possible version : In a flash, Tom had an idea to keep warm. He shouted with joy, “Let’s copy the penguins and join them!” Mary hesitated with concern that the birds wouldn’t accept them. Tom smiled with confidence while approaching the birds which had already crowded together due to the temperature. Slowly and gently, he reached out his hands and stroke them with great affection. Though alarmed at first, the penguins recognized him and allowed him into their huddle. Mary quickly followed his lead. The two kids squeezed their way from the edge of the crowd to the center and returned to the edge with the flow just as the birds did. As warmth spread through their bodies, they grew confident they could survive until rescue came. About two hours later, their parents rushed into the lab, screaming out the kids’ names. Before Tom and Mary could make any response, their parents were amazed to find the kids tightly surrounded by a huge group of penguins, safe and sound. Their mother check for any signs of frostbite or injury and their father asked in surprise, “You were using the penguins’ way to keep warm?” The two kids exchanged a glance and Tom proudly told their parents that they learned from the penguins. As the room warmed up, the penguins slowly walked away. The parents looked at each other proudly — their children didn’t just wait for help, but found a smart way to survive by working with nature. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了Mary和Tom在南极企鹅研究实验室遭遇意外，被困在寒冷的环境中，他们通过观察企鹅的保暖方式，模仿企鹅挤作一团来保持体温，最终成功坚持到救援到来的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“刹那间，汤姆想到了一个保暖的办法。”可知，第一段可描写Tom想到的保持温暖的办法，即模仿企鹅挤在企鹅群中取暖，以及具体实施这个办法的过程和他们在这个过程中的感受。 ②由第二段首句内容 “大约两个小时后，他们的父母冲进实验室，大声喊出孩子们的名字。”可知，第二段可描写父母冲进实验室后看到孩子和企鹅的状态的反应，以及孩子们向父母解释他们的做法，最后父母对孩子的表现感到骄傲。 2.续写线索：实验室遇困境——Tom 想到模仿企鹅取暖的办法——实施办法挤入企鹅群取暖——父母冲进实验室——父母惊讶并询问——孩子解释并获父母认可 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①模仿企鹅：copy the penguins/imitate the penguins ②伸出某人的手：reached out one’s hands/stretched out one’s hands/extended one’s hands ③接近：approach/come close to/get near 情绪类 ①担心：concern/worry ②吃惊的：amazed/surprised 【点睛】【高分句型1】Tom smiled with confidence while approaching the birds which had already crowded together due to the temperature.（运用了which引导的限定性定语从句） 【高分句型2】Before Tom and Mary could make any response, their parents were amazed to find the kids tightly surrounded by a huge group of penguins, safe and sound.（运用了before引导的时间状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
