Some of them require bravery in the face of danger, others result from a simple act of kindness. Natalie Fernando was taking her 5-year-old autistic (患孤独症的) son Rudy for a seaside walk when the little boy suddenly broke down. “My son loves to walk, but he hates to turn around and walk back. We usually try to walk in a circle to avoid this, but on his favourite walk with the boats we have no choice but to turn back. This will often lead to a breakdown, which I can normally handle, but today was too much for him and me,” Fernando explained on her blog. The walking area at Southend-on-Sea is a very popular walking place in Essex, England. Knowing she and Rudy were drawing attention and that her son’s breakdown might go on for an hour, Fernando was apologetic, but she soon found herself exposed to unfavorable looks and comments of passers-by. That’s when a total stranger named Ian stopped to ask if she was okay. When Fernando explained what was going on, as if it was the most natural thing in the world to do, Ian lay down on the ground close to Rudy and engaged him in conversation. The calming action quickly turned the situation around. After Rudy recovered, Ian walked Rudy and his mom back to their car. “I wish there were more of this man around and I am beyond thankful,” Fernando said. “I will not forget his kindness.” In addition to her gratitude, Fernando hopes Ian’s unselfish behavior might inspire others to look deeper before making social judgments themselves. “It’s said a lot at the moment, ‘In a world where you can be anything, be kind,’” she wrote. “Words are easy, but these actions are not always so easy. This man is living the words and I couldn’t be more grateful.” “We’re all walking our own path and directing the journey the best we can. Sometimes it takes a moment of kindness from a complete stranger to completely change your day.” 29. What was Fernando’s reaction when Rudy broke down? A. She turned back. B. She gave him a hug. C. She felt very sorry. D. She explained to passers-by. 30. What can we learn from the passage? A. A passer-by sat down to talk with Rudy. B. I an drove Rudy and mom home safely. C. Rudy’s sudden behavior lasted for one hour. D. A stranger helped Rudy calm down. 31. Which of the following words can best describe Ian? A. Brave. B. Caring. C. Generous. D. Humorous. 32. What message does Fernando hope to convey through her experience? A. People should avoid taking autistic children to public places. B Simple acts of kindness can have a profound impact on others. C. Strangers are generally untrustworthy in public situations. D. Parents should always be prepared to handle their children’s breakdowns. C Scientists at Purdue University created the world’s whitest paint — a discovery that not only adds yet another choice to the “which white should we paint this wall” dilemma, but also might help the climate crisis. The paint was developed by Purdue mechanical engineering professor Xiulin Ruan and his team. It works through a passive cooling technology that offers great promises to reduce space cooling cost and global warming. “When we started this project seven years ago, we had saving energy and fighting climate change in mind,” Ruan said in a podcast (播客) episode of This Is Purdue. They wanted to create a paint that would reflect sunlight away from a building, dramatically decreasing the need for air conditioning. Heating, cooling, and lighting account for 28 percent of the world’s total greenhouse gas emissions. And overusing air conditioning can overwhelm a city’s power grid and cause blackouts (停电). In a Queens blackout in 2006, 175,000 people were left without power, which lead to 40 deaths. This paint could effectively be an alternative to air conditioners in some places. The paint reflects 98.1%of solar radiation while also giving out infrared (红外线的) heat. Because the paint takes in less heat from the sun than it gives out, a surface coated with this paint is cooled below the surrounding temperature without using power. Covering a roof area of 1,000 square feet with the paint could create 10 kilowatts ofcooling power, the researchers found.“That’s more powerful than the air conditioners used by most houses,”Ruan told This Is Purdue. You can’t buy the paint just yet, but researchers are partnering with a company to put the paint on the market. While individual action to fight elimate change can help save our planet, it’s important to note that the vast majority of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions can be traced back to 100companies. Maybe we can douse(浇) those companies with this white paint, too — it could be worth a shot. 33. What is known about the paint? A It has different colors. B. It doesn’t cost much. C. It uses heating technology. D. It is climate-friendly. 34. What is the Queens blackout mentioned to show? A. The poor management of power. B. The significance of the paint. C. The importance of air conditioning. D. The result of global warming. 35. Which aspect of the paint is talked about in Paragraph 4? A. Its application. B. Its function. C. Its composition. D. Its disadvantage. 36. What can be learned from the last paragraph? A. The quality of the paint needs improving. B. The paint will bring profits to the 100 companies. C. Researchers want to see the paint in commercial use. D. Individual efforts matter in creating the whitest paint. D AI Art and Copyright (版权)：A New Era or a Threat to Human Artists? The art world has been thrown into a heated debate following Christie’s New York’s announcement of its Augmented Intelligence (增强智能) auction (拍卖). This event, which will showcase art pieces generated with AI technology, has not only been a big moment for the famous auction house but also brought up worries about the moral issues of AI in art creation. Artificial Intelligence is increasingly entering the art field. Tools such as Midjourney, Stable Diffusion, and DALL-E can generate visually amazing art by processing extensive image datasets and applying complex algorithms (算法). The Christie’s auction, set to feature a range of artworks including those by well-known digital artists, is a proof of AI’s growing influence. However, the art community has strongly opposed this. An open letter, signed by over 4,000 artists and advocates, criticized Christie’s promotion of AI art. The core of their concern is that AI models powering generative tools are trained using copyrighted material without getting permission. They accuse AI companies of stealing intellectual property and claim that Christie’s should be blamed for damaging traditional artists’ livelihoods. At the heart of the controversy (争议) lies the question of whether AI-generated works are “real” art. Some believe art must be the product of human expression, while others view AI as just another artistic medium. Artists in the Augmented Intelligence auction insist that AI chances their creativity. Another major issue is the legality of using copyrighted works to train AI models. This has led to lawsuits, with AI companies defending their actions under fair use laws, stating that their use changes the original works. Christie’s has defended the auction, highlighting that the participating artists are established figures using AI to explore art boundaries. As AI continues to shape the art world, copyright laws struggle to keep pace. The US Copyright Office has made rulings, but the integration of AI into the creative process remains complex. In conclusion, while AI-generated art offers exciting creative possibilities, it also raises significant concerns about copyright and the authenticity (真实性) of digital art. All the people involved — artists, auction houses, and technology companies — need to find common ground in this evolving digital landscape. 37. What can we learn from Paragraph 4 and 5? A. AI tools enhance artists’ creativity by creating wholly new works. B. AI art controversy partly lies in the understanding of real art. C. Christie’s auction promotes technological innovation in the art market. D AI companies refuse to address the legality issues of training AI models. 38. What is the author’s way to develop this passage? A. Cause→Effect→Proposal B. Problem→Solution→Evaluation C. Comparison→Contrast→Summary D. Phenomenon→Controversy→ Analysis 39. What is the author’s attitude towards AI-generated art? A. critical. B. indifferent. C. objective. D. supportive. 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。 How to Keep Your Phone Charged and Useful in a Natural Disaster A smartphone can be a lifeline in a natural disaster. ____40____ Unfortunately, many natural disasters take out the exact things phones rely on to do that work: electricity and cell services.

From a young age, Jessica was drawn to the sea. Growing up on the Sunshine Coast of Australia, she spent hours sailing with her family, developing a deep connection with the ocean. By the age of 14, she set her sights on an ambitious goal: to sail around the world alone. Despite doubts from critics who questioned her ability and age, Jessica remained firm in her belief that she could accomplish the impossible. In an interview with The Los Angeles Times, Jessica explained her motivation: “I wanted to challenge myself and achieve something to be proud of.” Jessica faced one of her greatest challenges in the Southern Ocean, where towering waves and fierce winds tested her endurance. Each storm pushed her to her limits, but she adapted, improving her skills to navigate (航行) the dangerous waters. Sleep deprivation (睡眠剥夺) was another constant battle for Jessica. Sailing solo meant that she had to be on constant alert, taking short naps throughout the day and night to ensure her safety. Despite the challenges she faced, Jessica also experienced moments of amazement. The sight of jumping whales, breathtaking sunsets, and the sheer vastness of the open ocean filled her with a sense of wonder and gratitude. These moments of peace and beauty served as a reminder of why she started this incredible journey in the first place. Being alone also provided Jessica with the opportunity for self-reflection and personal growth. Away from the distractions of modern life, she dug into her thoughts and discovered a newfound purpose. Navigating the open ocean also taught Jessica invaluable lessons about adaptability and problem-solving. She encountered numerous mechanical failures and had to rely on her resourcefulness to fix them. Through trial and error, Jessica learned to think on her feet and find creative solutions to the challenges that arose. So, let Jessica Watson’s journey be a rallying cry (集结口号) for all those who dare to dream big. Let her story be a reminder that the greatest adventures often begin with a single step, or in Jessica’s case, a single sail. 45.

The festival was organized to help us students learn more about our rich cultural heritage and foster a sense of pride in our traditions. During the festival, there were various activities, such as calligraphy exhibitions, traditional music performances, and handicraft workshops. I particularly enjoyed the paper-cutting workshop, where I learned to create beautiful patterns with just a piece of paper and scissors. It was an amazing experience that deepened my appreciation for Chinese traditional arts. I hope this gives you a good idea of what the festival was like. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask! Yours, Li Hua 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
