Doctors told her she might never run again. But Sarah refused to accept this. She had always loved running, and the thought of losing it was unbearable. With determination and the support of her family, she began a long and difficult journey to regain her strength. For months, Sarah underwent physical therapy, spending hours each day relearning how to move her legs. Progress was slow, and there were days when she felt like giving up. But her mother always reminded her, “Every step forward, no matter how small, is a victory.” These words became Sarah’s motto, pushing her to keep going. She started by taking a few steps with a walker, then progressed to walking short distances on her own. Each milestone, no matter how small, filled her with hope. By the time she turned 15, Sarah had made significant progress. She could walk short distances without assistance, but running still seemed like a distant dream. That’s when she met Coach Miller, a former marathon runner who believed in her potential. He designed a special training program for Sarah, focusing on building her endurance and confidence. “You have the heart of a runner,” he told her. “Now we just need to train your body to keep up.” The first time Sarah tried to run, she only managed a few steps before collapsing in tears. But Coach Miller was there, encouraging her to try again. “Failure is just a step on the path to success,” he said. Over the next year, Sarah trained tirelessly, gradually increasing her distance and speed. She faced setbacks, including muscle pain and moments of self-doubt, but she never gave up. At 17, Sarah entered her first race — a local 5K. She didn’t win, but she crossed the finish line with a smile on her face. For Sarah, it wasn’t about winning; it was about proving to herself that she could do it. Today, Sarah is a competitive runner and an inspiration to others facing challenges. Her story reminds us that with persistence and support, even the toughest obstacles can be overcome. 34. What was Sarah’s initial reaction to her disease? A. She accepted it immediately. B. She felt relieved to stop running. C. She decided to focus on other hobbies. D. She didn’t believe she couldn’t run again. 35. Which word would best describe Sarah’s mother’s words? A. Imaginative.

C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了12岁被诊断患影响行走疾病、被告知可能无法再跑步的莎拉，在家人支持和教练帮助下，历经艰难训练，17岁参加5K比赛证明了自己，如今成为激励他人的跑步者 。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Doctors told her she might never run again. But Sarah refused to accept this. She had always loved running, and the thought of losing it was unbearable.(医生告诉她，她可能再也不能跑了。但莎拉拒绝接受这一点。她一直很喜欢跑步，一想到要失去它，她就难以忍受)”可知，莎拉最初对自己疾病的反应是她不相信自己不能再跑步了。故选D项。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“But her mother always reminded her, “Every step forward, no matter how small, is a victory.” These words became Sarah’s motto, pushing her to keep going.(但她的母亲总是提醒她，“每一步前进，无论多么小，都是一场胜利。”这些话成为了莎拉的座右铭，激励她继续前进)”可知，莎拉母亲的话激励莎拉继续前进。由此推知，莎拉母亲的话是令人鼓舞的。故选B项。 【36题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“She could walk short distances without assistance, but running still seemed like a distant dream. That’s when she met Coach Miller, a former marathon runner who believed in her potential. He designed a special training program for Sarah, focusing on building her endurance and confidence. “You have the heart of a runner,” he told her. “Now we just need to train your body to keep up.”(她可以在没有帮助的情况下走很短的距离，但跑步似乎仍然是一个遥远的梦想。就在那时，她遇到了米勒教练，这位前马拉松运动员相信她的潜力。他为莎拉设计了一个特殊的训练计划，重点是培养她的耐力和信心。“你有一颗跑步者的心，”他告诉她。“现在我们只需要训练你的身体来跟上。”)”和第四段“But Coach Miller was there, encouraging her to try again. “Failure is just a step on the path to success,” he said. Over the next year, Sarah trained tirelessly, gradually increasing her distance and speed. She faced setbacks, including muscle pain and moments of self-doubt, but she never gave up.(但米勒教练在那里，鼓励她再试一次。他说：“失败只是通往成功之路的一步。”。在接下来的一年里，莎拉不知疲倦地训练，逐渐增加了她的距离和速度。她面临着挫折，包括肌肉疼痛和自我怀疑的时刻，但她从未放弃)”可知，莎拉因为疾病身体上有局限性，在跑步训练中也面临着肌肉疼痛和自我怀疑等心理问题。由此推知，教练米勒的训练计划侧重于耐力和信心是因为莎拉需要克服身体和心理上的障碍。故选A项。 【37题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“At 17, Sarah entered her first race — a local 5K. She didn’t win, but she crossed the finish line with a smile on her face. For Sarah, it wasn’t about winning; it was about proving to herself that she could do it.(17岁时，莎拉参加了她的第一场比赛——当地的5公里比赛。她没有赢，但她面带微笑地冲过了终点线。对莎拉来说，这不是赢；这是为了向自己证明她能做到)”可知，莎拉参加5K比赛是为了向自己证明她能做到，展示了她向自己证明能力的愿望。故选C项。 C One thing about AI that worries more people than any other is that it might take their livelihood away. But experts are divided as to whether the technology will bring us a life of leisure or a life of pressure. As ever, the truth probably lies somewhere in the middle. AI won’t take our jobs, but it will change them. Some British economists assumed that robots would take our jobs and our working week would decrease to 15 hours by 2030. In 2013, Michael Osborne at the University of Oxford looked at 702 types of work and ranked them according to how easy it would be to automate them. He found that about under half of all jobs in the US could workably be done by machines within two decades. The list includes jobs such as telemarketers and library technicians. Not far behind were less obviously susceptible jobs, including models and cooks, threatened respectively by digital avatars and robochefs. The least vulnerable included mental health workers and teachers of young children. In general, jobs that performed better required strong social interaction and creative ability. However, others find that list overblown. A paper for the OECD club in 2016 suggested that AI would not be able to do all the tasks associated with all these jobs, particularly those requiring human interaction, and only about 9 percent of jobs are fully automatable. Moreover, past experience shows that jobs tend to evolve (演变，进化) around automation. “Successful innovations are those that complement rather than occupy us,” says Ben Shneiderman, from the University of Maryland. “Technologies are most effective when their designs amplify human abilities. They could help us solve problems, communicate widely or create art,” says Shneiderman. “Robots could be a liberating force by taking away routine work,” says Tom Watson, whose study on AI’s development in employment concludes that AI could create as many jobs as it destroys. He is, however, concerned the increasing of automation has led to the rise in inequality and imbalance in power. “We’ve got to be careful that big corporations and employers don’t accumulate all the benefits while ordinary workers are left to lump the negatives,” he says. How can we adapt? The answer might simply be to update our social frameworks to reflect the new reality of work. Another proposal is an AI tax on companies that are saving money by replacing workers with algorithms. Ultimately we, not AI, are in charge of our own destiny. “There will be unfairness and disruptions,” says Watson. “But the question is: is future human-centered? I say it is.” 38. What does the word “susceptible” underlined in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Workable. B. Predictable. C. Replaceable. D. Reliable 39. What can we learn from Ben Shneiderman’s words? A. Technologies can always promote jobs. B. Successful automation helps evolve our jobs. C. Fully automatable jobs require human interaction. D. Effective innovations are those that can occupy us. 40. What can we learn from AI’s development in employment? A. It can help free labours from routine work. B. It makes big corporations bear most negatives. C. It will finally lead to incredible inequality in jobs. D. It destroys occupations faster than it provides them. 41. What’s the author’s purpose of writing the last paragraph? A. To offer solutions to mentioned problems. B. To note the future of relative researches. C. To reveal limits of existing perspectives. D. To sum up arguments from both sides 【答案】38. C 39. B 40. A 41. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了人工智能对于人类未来工作的影响以及人们对此的看法。 【38题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段“He found that about under half of all jobs in the US could workably be done by machines within two decades. The list includes jobs such as telemarketers and library technicians.(他发现，在美国，不到一半的工作可以在20年内由机器完成。这份名单包括电话推销员和图书馆技术员等工作)”和下文“The least vulnerable included mental health workers and teachers of young children. (最不易受影响的群体包括心理健康工作者和幼儿教师)”可知，上文提到的是容易被取代的职业，下文介绍的不易受影响的职业，由此推知，划线部分所在句子介绍不太容易受影响的职业。结合划线部分下文“including models and cooks(包括模特和厨师)”可知，模特和厨师不是太容易被取代的职业。故划线词意思是“被取代的”。故选C。 【39题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段““Successful innovations are those that complement rather than occupy us,” says Ben Shneiderman, from the University of Maryland. “Technologies are most effective when their designs amplify human abilities. They could help us solve problems, communicate widely or create art,” says Shneiderman.(马里兰大学的本·施奈德曼说：“成功的创新是那些补充而不是占据我们的创新。当技术的设计能够放大人类的能力时，它们是最有效的。它们可以帮助我们解决问题，广泛交流或创造艺术，”施奈德曼说)”可知，成功的自动化有助于发展我们的工作。故选B。 【40题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Robots could be a liberating force by taking away routine work(机器人可以取代日常工作，从而成为一股解放力量)”可知，人工智能可以帮助人们从日常工作中解脱出来。故选A。 【41题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“How can we adapt? The answer might simply be to update our social frameworks to reflect the new reality of work. Another proposal is an AI tax on companies that are saving money by replacing workers with algorithms. Ultimately we, not AI, are in charge of our own destiny. “There will be unfairness and disruptions,” says Watson. “But the question is: is future human-centered? I say it is.”(我们该如何适应？答案可能只是更新我们的社会框架，以反映新的工作现实。另一项提议是对那些通过用算法取代人工来节省资金的公司征收人工智能税。最终，我们，而不是人工智能，掌握着我们自己的命运。“会有不公平和混乱，”沃森说。“但问题是：未来以人为中心吗？我说是的。”)”可知，作者写最后一段的目的是为上述问题提供解决方案。故选A。 D For millennia, we have expected dogs to guard our property and protect our family at night. Now they are also asked to be friendly around strangers, rest quietly through the night and keep their feet off sofas. “It’s an evolutionary mismatch”, says Hare, an anthropologist at Duke Unıversity. The good news is that this problem is solvable. Recent studies indicate that selective breeding (繁殖) and careful training can help dogs adapt to indoor life. A “puppy kindergarten” research was set up by Hare’s team to illustrate the heritability of behavioural traits in dogs by observing what service dogs’ behaviour looks like before intensive training begins. Service dogs were selected as the subject for they can always naturally adapt well to the mismatch compared to other kinds. They can pull wheelchairs, operate light switches and interact gently with children. By collecting data from 1,500 dog owners on the behaviour of their pets, which belonged to 36 breeds, Hare’s team discovered that genetics (遗传特征) explained 45 percent of the variation in dogs’ self-control. 16 percent of the variation in reasoning about the physical world and a mere 0.01 percent of the variation in short-term memory, which manifests that some desirable behaviours are heritable to certain degree, and selective breeding for temperament is worthwhile. “Genetics is important, but its relative importance is different for different behavioural traits,” says Gitanjali from Emory University. Besides, Hare’s work also illustrates selective breeding can’t guarantee some highly desirable traits, such as a good memory. So they have devised techniques that owners can use to help train their pets and build better relationships with them. One habit that is especially important in training is making eye contact. “The dog’s gaze may be a causal factor in inducing good feelings in the owner”, says Kikusui at Azabu University in Japan, “and the longer a dog gazes at its owner, the stronger those good feelings become.” Hare also found that pups could solve some “impossible tasks” by appealing to human for help, and the appeal was made through eye contact. So he suggested puppy owners finish “impossible tasks” with their pets every two weeks to strengthen the emotional connection with them. “Doing so can help you learn where your dog’s cognitive strengths lie”, he says. And as the puppy kindergarten project has made clear, dog training as well as selective breeding is crucial to foster those behaviours we would like our pets to exhibit in our homes. 42. What can we learn from Hare’s research? A. Service dogs were observed while accepting training. B. Genetics may explain differences in dogs’ self-control C. Service dogs were chosen for they were trained earlier. D. Selective breeding develops dogs’ most desirable traits. 43. What’s the author’s aim of quoting Gitanjali’s words? A. To reveal that Hare’s research is suspicious. B. To prove the necessity of selective breeding. C. To confirm the value on reforming dogs’ genes. D. To suggest that other factors also need discussing. 44. What’s the best title for the passage? A. Service Dogs: Acquiring Desirable Traits through Breeding B. Smart Dogs: Adapting Well to Indoor Life through Training C. Modern Dogs: Training Desirable Dogs through Eye Contact D. Good Dogs: Evolving through Selective Breeding and Training 【答案】42. B 43. D 44. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了研究发现进化上的不匹配导致了狗能力的差异，指出导致这种差异的原因以及建议。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“By collecting data from 1,500 dog owners on the behaviour of their pets, which belonged to 36 breeds, Hare’s team discovered that genetics (遗传特征) explained 45 percent of the variation in dogs’ self-control, 16 percent of the variation in reasoning about the physical world and a mere 0.01 percent of the variation in short-term memory, which manifests that some desirable behaviours are heritable to certain degree, and selective breeding for temperament is worthwhile.(通过收集1500名狗主人的36个品种的宠物行为数据，Hare的研究小组发现，基因可以解释45%的狗的自控能力差异，16%的物理世界推理变异和0.01%的短期记忆变异，这表明一些令人满意的行为在一定程度上是可遗传的，对气质的选择性培育是值得的)”可知，基因可以解释狗在自控能力上的差异。故选B。 【43题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段““Genetics is important, but its relative importance is different for different behavioural traits,” says Gitanjali from Emory University.( 来自埃默里大学的Gitanjali说：“基因很重要，但它的相对重要性对于不同的行为特征是不同的。”)”可推知，作者引用Gitanjali的话的目的是暗示其他因素也需要讨论。故选D。 【44题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“The good news is that this problem is solvable. Recent studies indicate that selective breeding (繁殖) and careful training can help dogs adapt to indoor life.(最近的研究表明，选择性繁育和精心训练可以帮助狗适应室内生活)”可知，文章主要说明了研究发现进化上的不匹配导致了狗能力的差异，指出导致这种差异的原因以及建议。由此可知，D选项“好狗：通过选择性繁殖和训练进化”最符合文章标题。故选D。 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Daydreaming, often dismissed as a waste of time, is increasingly recognized as a vital cognitive process. Far from being a sign of laziness, daydreaming allows the brain to explore ideas, solve problems and foster creativity. Recent studies in neuroscience have revealed the complex mechanisms behind this mental activity. When we daydream, the brain enters a state known as the “default mode network” (DMN). ___45___ This network becomes active when we are not focused on the outside world, enabling the brain to process information, consolidate memories and generate new ideas. For example, many breakthroughs in science and art have emerged from moments of spontaneous daydreaming. Contrary to popular belief, daydreaming is not a passive activity. It requires significant mental energy and involves complex neural activity. Research shows that during daydreaming, the brain engages in high-level cognitive processes, such as planning, self-reflection and emotional regulation. ___46___ Moreover, daydreaming can enhance problem-solving abilities. By exploring in the daydream, many people can find ways to tackle the problems. ___47___ By allowing the mind to wander, we can approach challenges from new perspectives and uncover innovative solutions. Studies have found that individuals who daydream regularly tend to perform better on tasks requiring creative thinking. ___48___ Negative daydreaming patterns can interfere with mental health and daily functioning. Excessive or negative daydreaming, often linked to meditation, can lead to anxiety and reduced productivity. The key is to strike a balance between focused work and intentional daydreaming. To harness the benefits of daydreaming, it’s important to create opportunities for it. ___49___ For instance, taking short breaks during work or engaging in activities like walking can stimulate the DMN and promote productive daydreaming. A. However, not all daydreaming is beneficial. B. The DMN is a network of brain regions that activate during restful states. C. These activities are essential for long-term goal setting and personal growth. D. Daydreaming is most effective when combined with periods of intense focus. E. The brain’s ability to switch between focused attention and daydreaming is crucial. F. It also can improve emotional toughness by helping us process difficult experiences. G. Structured daydreaming, such as guided visualization, can enhance its positive effects. 【答案】45. B 46. C 47. F 48. A 49.

Emotions run deep from sadness and hopelessness to hope and optimism. Whether the change is considered good or not-so-good, students are increasingly faced with the chaos, uncertainty and complexity of living in today’s world, which aren’t easy. Helping students learn and apply evidence-based skills, which improve their resilience, is at the core of preparing students for an uncertain world and helping them transform challenges into something better. Student resilience is the ability to recover from a challenge or great disaster. Being able to build this capability is complex and nuanced, but there are many science-backed ideas and strategies that help students increase their current level of resiliency. Supportive relationships are considered the number one sign of childhood resilience. The key active core ingredient for resilience is the relationships the kids have to others who care about them. Every student needs healthy and supportive relationships, especially in times of trouble or challenges, so they can feel supported and capable of beginning again, regardless of whether the problem is getting cut from their basketball team or having their school or family home burn down. Researchers concluded that transforming challenges into something positive also helps people have better control of their emotions and more positive outcomes, which lead to more resilience. Subjects who didn’t transform challenges and perceived events as negative demonstrated less emotional control and resilience in the face of challenges. Of course, there are tragedies, which are hard to transform, but most of the time, we can find something positive or constructive from a challenging situation. Say your daughter had her wisdom teeth out, and you asked her, “Is there anything good from this?” She may say, “Yes. I get two days off from school, and all the ice cream I can eat!” This is more resilient than her saying, “No. It’s terrible.” That’s not a wrong answer, but she can, little by little, learn how to transform her challenges and build that skill for her resiliency toolbox. 65. According to the passage, what’s student resilience? ______________________________________________ 66. What’s the most important sign to develop the childhood resilience? ______________________________________________ 67. Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why. People who transform challenges into something positive are likely to be less resilient. ______________________________________________ 68. Please share one of your own experiences about the application of resilience to your daily life.(In about 40 words) ______________________________________________ 【答案】65. Student resilience is the ability to recover from a challenge or great disaster. 66. Supportive relationships. 67. People who transform challenges into something positive are likely to be less resilient. According to the passage, transforming challenges into something positive helps people have better control of their emotions and more positive outcomes, which lead to more resilience. 68. When facing a sudden job loss, I built a routine to upskill and network daily; resilience helped me pivot into a better role within months. 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了什么是适应力以及适应力的好处。 【65题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第三段“Student resilience is the ability to recover from a challenge or great disaster. (学生适应力是指从挑战或重大灾难中恢复的能力。)”可知，学生的适应力是指从挑战或重大灾难中恢复的能力。故答案为Student resilience is the ability to recover from a challenge or great disaster. 【66题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第四段“Supportive relationships are considered the number one sign of childhood resilience. (支持性关系被认为是儿童适应力的首要标志。)”可知，培养儿童适应力最重要的标志是支持的关系。故答案为Supportive relationships. 【67题详解】 考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段“Researchers concluded that transforming challenges into something positive also helps people have better control of their emotions and more positive outcomes, which lead to more resilience. (研究人员得出结论，将挑战转化为积极的东西还能帮助人们更好地控制自己的情绪，获得更多积极的结果，从而增强适应力。)”可知，错误部分为are likely to be less resilient，根据这篇文章，将挑战转化为积极的东西可以帮助人们更好地控制自己的情绪，获得更多积极的结果，从而提高适应力。故答案为People who transform challenges into something positive are likely to be less resilient. According to the passage, transforming challenges into something positive helps people have better control of their emotions and more positive outcomes, which lead to more resilience. 【68题详解】 考查开放题。根据“请分享一个你自己在日常生活中运用韧性的经验”可回答：当面临突然失业时，我建立了一个日常计划来提高技能和人际关系；适应力帮助我在几个月内找到了更好的工作。故答案为When facing a sudden job loss, I built a routine to upskill and network daily; resilience helped me pivot into a better role within months. 第二节（20分） 69. 假设你是红星中学高三学生李华。你的外国好友Jim因使用AI工具完成写作作业而受到批评。他写信询问你对这件事的看法，请你用英文给他回复，内容包括： 1 你的看法； 2.你的建议和理由。 注意：1. 词数100左右； 2.开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 Dear Jim, ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】Dear Jim, I’m truly sorry to hear about your experience. It’s understandable to feel upset when your efforts are questioned, but let’s try to see this from another perspective. First, sincerely apologize to your teacher and clarify your intentions, which shows maturity and helps rebuild trust. Explain that you aimed to save time but now realize the importance of independent practice.

B When Sarah was 12 years old, she was diagnosed with a rare condition that affected her ability to walk. Doctors told her she might never run again. But Sarah refused to accept this. She had always loved running, and the thought of losing it was unbearable. With determination and the support of her family, she began a long and difficult journey to regain her strength. For months, Sarah underwent physical therapy, spending hours each day relearning how to move her legs. Progress was slow, and there were days when she felt like giving up. But her mother always reminded her, “Every step forward, no matter how small, is a victory.” These words became Sarah’s motto, pushing her to keep going. She started by taking a few steps with a walker, then progressed to walking short distances on her own. Each milestone, no matter how small, filled her with hope. By the time she turned 15, Sarah had made significant progress. She could walk short distances without assistance, but running still seemed like a distant dream. That’s when she met Coach Miller, a former marathon runner who believed in her potential. He designed a special training program for Sarah, focusing on building her endurance and confidence. “You have the heart of a runner,” he told her. “Now we just need to train your body to keep up.” The first time Sarah tried to run, she only managed a few steps before collapsing in tears. But Coach Miller was there, encouraging her to try again. “Failure is just a step on the path to success,” he said. Over the next year, Sarah trained tirelessly, gradually increasing her distance and speed. She faced setbacks, including muscle pain and moments of self-doubt, but she never gave up. At 17, Sarah entered her first race — a local 5K. She didn’t win, but she crossed the finish line with a smile on her face. For Sarah, it wasn’t about winning; it was about proving to herself that she could do it. Today, Sarah is a competitive runner and an inspiration to others facing challenges. Her story reminds us that with persistence and support, even the toughest obstacles can be overcome. 34. What was Sarah’s initial reaction to her disease? A. She accepted it immediately. B. She felt relieved to stop running. C. She decided to focus on other hobbies. D. She didn’t believe she couldn’t run again. 35. Which word would best describe Sarah’s mother’s words? A. Imaginative. B. Encouraging. C. Constructive. D. Entertaining. 36. Why did Coach Miller’s training program focus on endurance and confidence? A. Because Sarah needed to overcome physical and mental barriers. B. Because Sarah had little potential in running long distances. C. Because Sarah wanted to win races quickly. D. Because Sarah suffered from muscle pain. 37. What did Sarah’s participation in the 5K race show? A. Her need to impress others. B. Her determination to win at all costs. C. Her desire to prove her ability to herself. D. Her acceptance of her physical limitations. C One thing about AI that worries more people than any other is that it might take their livelihood away. But experts are divided as to whether the technology will bring us a life of leisure or a life of pressure. As ever, the truth probably lies somewhere in the middle. AI won’t take our jobs, but it will change them. Some British economists assumed that robots would take our jobs and our working week would decrease to 15 hours by 2030. In 2013, Michael Osborne at the University of Oxford looked at 702 types of work and ranked them according to how easy it would be to automate them. He found that about under half of all jobs in the US could workably be done by machines within two decades. The list includes jobs such as telemarketers and library technicians. Not far behind were less obviously susceptible jobs, including models and cooks, threatened respectively by digital avatars and robochefs. The least vulnerable included mental health workers and teachers of young children. In general, jobs that performed better required strong social interaction and creative ability. However, others find that list overblown. A paper for the OECD club in 2016 suggested that AI would not be able to do all the tasks associated with all these jobs, particularly those requiring human interaction, and only about 9 percent of jobs are fully automatable. Moreover, past experience shows that jobs tend to evolve (演变，进化) around automation. “Successful innovations are those that complement rather than occupy us,” says Ben Shneiderman, from the University of Maryland. “Technologies are most effective when their designs amplify human abilities. They could help us solve problems, communicate widely or create art,” says Shneiderman. “Robots could be a liberating force by taking away routine work,” says Tom Watson, whose study on AI’s development in employment concludes that AI could create as many jobs as it destroys. He is, however, concerned the increasing of automation has led to the rise in inequality and imbalance in power. “We’ve got to be careful that big corporations and employers don’t accumulate all the benefits while ordinary workers are left to lump the negatives,” he says. How can we adapt? The answer might simply be to update our social frameworks to reflect the new reality of work. Another proposal is an AI tax on companies that are saving money by replacing workers with algorithms. Ultimately we, not AI, are in charge of our own destiny. “There will be unfairness and disruptions,” says Watson. “But the question is: is future human-centered? I say it is.” 38. What does the word “susceptible” underlined in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Workable. B. Predictable. C. Replaceable. D. Reliable 39. What can we learn from Ben Shneiderman’s words? A. Technologies can always promote jobs. B. Successful automation helps evolve our jobs. C. Fully automatable jobs require human interaction. D. Effective innovations are those that can occupy us. 40. What can we learn from AI’s development in employment? A. It can help free labours from routine work. B. It makes big corporations bear most negatives. C. It will finally lead to incredible inequality in jobs. D. It destroys occupations faster than it provides them. 41. What’s the author’s purpose of writing the last paragraph? A. To offer solutions to mentioned problems. B. To note the future of relative researches. C. To reveal limits of existing perspectives. D. To sum up arguments from both sides D For millennia, we have expected dogs to guard our property and protect our family at night. Now they are also asked to be friendly around strangers, rest quietly through the night and keep their feet off sofas. “It’s an evolutionary mismatch”, says Hare, an anthropologist at Duke Unıversity. The good news is that this problem is solvable. Recent studies indicate that selective breeding (繁殖) and careful training can help dogs adapt to indoor life. A “puppy kindergarten” research was set up by Hare’s team to illustrate the heritability of behavioural traits in dogs by observing what service dogs’ behaviour looks like before intensive training begins. Service dogs were selected as the subject for they can always naturally adapt well to the mismatch compared to other kinds. They can pull wheelchairs, operate light switches and interact gently with children. By collecting data from 1,500 dog owners on the behaviour of their pets, which belonged to 36 breeds, Hare’s team discovered that genetics (遗传特征) explained 45 percent of the variation in dogs’ self-control. 16 percent of the variation in reasoning about the physical world and a mere 0.01 percent of the variation in short-term memory, which manifests that some desirable behaviours are heritable to certain degree, and selective breeding for temperament is worthwhile. “Genetics is important, but its relative importance is different for different behavioural traits,” says Gitanjali from Emory University. Besides, Hare’s work also illustrates selective breeding can’t guarantee some highly desirable traits, such as a good memory. So they have devised techniques that owners can use to help train their pets and build better relationships with them. One habit that is especially important in training is making eye contact. “The dog’s gaze may be a causal factor in inducing good feelings in the owner”, says Kikusui at Azabu University in Japan, “and the longer a dog gazes at its owner, the stronger those good feelings become.” Hare also found that pups could solve some “impossible tasks” by appealing to human for help, and the appeal was made through eye contact. So he suggested puppy owners finish “impossible tasks” with their pets every two weeks to strengthen the emotional connection with them. “Doing so can help you learn where your dog’s cognitive strengths lie”, he says. And as the puppy kindergarten project has made clear, dog training as well as selective breeding is crucial to foster those behaviours we would like our pets to exhibit in our homes. 42. What can we learn from Hare’s research? A. Service dogs were observed while accepting training. B. Genetics may explain differences in dogs’ self-control C. Service dogs were chosen for they were trained earlier. D. Selective breeding develops dogs’ most desirable traits. 43. What’s the author’s aim of quoting Gitanjali’s words? A. To reveal that Hare’s research is suspicious. B. To prove the necessity of selective breeding. C. To confirm the value on reforming dogs’ genes. D. To suggest that other factors also need discussing. 44. What’s the best title for the passage? A. Service Dogs: Acquiring Desirable Traits through Breeding B. Smart Dogs: Adapting Well to Indoor Life through Training C. Modern Dogs: Training Desirable Dogs through Eye Contact D. Good Dogs: Evolving through Selective Breeding and Training 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Daydreaming, often dismissed as a waste of time, is increasingly recognized as a vital cognitive process. Far from being a sign of laziness, daydreaming allows the brain to explore ideas, solve problems and foster creativity. Recent studies in neuroscience have revealed the complex mechanisms behind this mental activity. When we daydream, the brain enters a state known as the “default mode network” (DMN). ___45___ This network becomes active when we are not focused on the outside world, enabling the brain to process information, consolidate memories and generate new ideas. For example, many breakthroughs in science and art have emerged from moments of spontaneous daydreaming. Contrary to popular belief, daydreaming is not a passive activity. It requires significant mental energy and involves complex neural activity. Research shows that during daydreaming, the brain engages in high-level cognitive processes, such as planning, self-reflection and emotional regulation. ___46___ Moreover, daydreaming can enhance problem-solving abilities. By exploring in the daydream, many people can find ways to tackle the problems. ___47___ By allowing the mind to wander, we can approach challenges from new perspectives and uncover innovative solutions. Studies have found that individuals who daydream regularly tend to perform better on tasks requiring creative thinking. ___48___ Negative daydreaming patterns can interfere with mental health and daily functioning. Excessive or negative daydreaming, often linked to meditation, can lead to anxiety and reduced productivity. The key is to strike a balance between focused work and intentional daydreaming. To harness the benefits of daydreaming, it’s important to create opportunities for it. ___49___ For instance, taking short breaks during work or engaging in activities like walking can stimulate the DMN and promote productive daydreaming. A. However, not all daydreaming is beneficial. B. The DMN is a network of brain regions that activate during restful states. C. These activities are essential for long-term goal setting and personal growth. D. Daydreaming is most effective when combined with periods of intense focus. E. The brain’s ability to switch between focused attention and daydreaming is crucial. F. It also can improve emotional toughness by helping us process difficult experiences. G. Structured daydreaming, such as guided visualization, can enhance its positive effects. 第II 卷（共57分） I. 选词填空 （共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 选词填空 drama, determine, advertise, qualify, suit 50.

III. 书面表达（共两节，32分） 第一节 （共4小题；第65、66题各2分，第67题3分，第68题5分，共12分） 阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题卡指定区域作答。 Sudden changes and gradual changes affect students differently. Emotions run deep from sadness and hopelessness to hope and optimism. Whether the change is considered good or not-so-good, students are increasingly faced with the chaos, uncertainty and complexity of living in today’s world, which aren’t easy. Helping students learn and apply evidence-based skills, which improve their resilience, is at the core of preparing students for an uncertain world and helping them transform challenges into something better. Student resilience is the ability to recover from a challenge or great disaster. Being able to build this capability is complex and nuanced, but there are many science-backed ideas and strategies that help students increase their current level of resiliency. Supportive relationships are considered the number one sign of childhood resilience. The key active core ingredient for resilience is the relationships the kids have to others who care about them. Every student needs healthy and supportive relationships, especially in times of trouble or challenges, so they can feel supported and capable of beginning again, regardless of whether the problem is getting cut from their basketball team or having their school or family home burn down. Researchers concluded that transforming challenges into something positive also helps people have better control of their emotions and more positive outcomes, which lead to more resilience. Subjects who didn’t transform challenges and perceived events as negative demonstrated less emotional control and resilience in the face of challenges. Of course, there are tragedies, which are hard to transform, but most of the time, we can find something positive or constructive from a challenging situation. Say your daughter had her wisdom teeth out, and you asked her, “Is there anything good from this?” She may say, “Yes. I get two days off from school, and all the ice cream I can eat!” This is more resilient than her saying, “No. It’s terrible.” That’s not a wrong answer, but she can, little by little, learn how to transform her challenges and build that skill for her resiliency toolbox. 65. According to the passage, what’s student resilience? ______________________________________________ 66. What’s the most important sign to develop the childhood resilience? ______________________________________________ 67. Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why. People who transform challenges into something positive are likely to be less resilient. ______________________________________________ 68. Please share one of your own experiences about the application of resilience to your daily life.(In about 40 words) ______________________________________________ 第二节（20分） 69. 假设你是红星中学高三学生李华。你的外国好友Jim因使用AI工具完成写作作业而受到批评。他写信询问你对这件事的看法，请你用英文给他回复，内容包括： 1 你的看法； 2.你的建议和理由。 注意：1. 词数100左右； 2.开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 Dear Jim, ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
