In January 2023, the zoo penned an obituary for sun bear Lao Ma, thinking back to the 33-year-old animal’s moments at the zoo. (动物园有为去世的某些动物写讣告的习俗。一位网友写道，讣告中的文字简单而真诚，反映了饲养员和动物之间的深厚关系。2023年1月，动物园为33岁的太阳熊老马写了一篇讣告，回忆了它在动物园的时光。)”结合文章主要讲述了一名饲养员为去世的河马手写了一篇详细的讣告，这篇讣告反映了饲养员和动物之间的深厚关系，并提到动物园有为去世的动物写讣告的习俗。可推知，作者想通过这篇文章传达人类与动物园动物之间的紧密联系。故选D。 C Humanoid robots have recently been arranged to patrol (巡逻) the streets alongside human police officers in Shenzhen, Guangdong province, where they were noticed in high-visibility police vests performing duties, drawing widespread public attention as they actively communicate with the public. An online popular video shows the robot walking in formation with police officers and enthusiastically shaking hands with people. It waved to the crowd and carried out voice commands, drawing many onlookers and bringing the city streets to life. These humanoid robots, named as model PM01, were released on December 24, 2024. Standing at 1.38 metres tall and weighing 40kg, they cost 88,000 yuan (US $12,000) each. Despite their compact size, the robots are driven by a powerful advanced learning algorithm (算法) for movement, enabling them to walk naturally and smoothly like humans and to perform complex movements such as front flips. Equipped with powerful chips and various sensors, including a LiDAR system — a device that uses lasers (激光) to measure distance and map their surroundings — these robots can accurately respond to commands and navigate through environments. The PM01 was engineered by EngineAI, a Shenzhen-based startup founded in 2023. The company has already showed several robot models, with the most groundbreaking one, the SE01, capable of performing complex actions such as squatting, jumping, doing push ups, and bringing items back. Although the PM01 is currently in limited use within the Shenzhen police force, they help officers with patrol duties, possibly reducing their workload. The police robot generated significant interest after videos were shared on YouTube. Many Chinese online observers are eager to see more technologies walk into their everyday lives. One person expressed: “Beyond military and law enforcement applications, household service robots have the highest demand and greatest qualities that can be developed among humanoid robots. If they can replace housekeepers at an affordable price, we will enter a new era of humanoid robots.” 28. What was the public’s first reaction to humanoid robots patrolling in Shenzhen? A. The public quickly got tired of the robots. B. The public was interested in the robots’ performance. C. The public feared the tech and avoided robot-patrolled areas. D. The public doubted the robots’ ability to perform the police duties. 29. What does the underlined word “compact” in the third paragraph probably mean? A. huge B. small C. medium D. wrong 30. What do we know about the SE01 robot model? A. It is more expensive than the PM01. B. It is designed to work mainly in households. C. It can perform a wider range of actions than PM01. D. It is now being used by the Shenzhen police in large numbers. 31. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?​ A. The Future of Humanoid Robots B. The High Cost of Humanoid Robots C. The Development of Humanoid Robots D. The Patrol of Humanoid Robots in Shenzhen Streets​ 【答案】28. B 29. B 30. C 31. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。本文讲述了在广东省深圳市的街头，人形机器人PM01与警察一同上街巡逻值勤，从而在网络上引起公众的广泛关注。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Humanoid robots have recently been arranged to patrol (巡逻) the streets alongside human police officers in Shenzhen, Guangdong province, where they were noticed in high-visibility police vests performing duties, drawing widespread public attention as they actively communicate with the public.(近日，在广东省深圳市，人形机器人被安排与人类警察一起巡逻街道，在那里，人们注意到它们穿着高能见度的警察背心执行任务，由于它们积极与公众沟通，引起了公众的广泛关注)”和第二段“It waved to the crowd and carried out voice commands, drawing many onlookers and bringing the city streets to life.(它向人群挥手并执行语音指令，吸引了许多围观者，让城市街道变得热闹起来)”可知，大众对于机器人在深圳巡逻是感兴趣的，故选B。 【29题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“Standing at 1.38 metres tall and weighing 40kg, they cost 88,000 yuan (US $12,000) each.(它们高1.38米，重40公斤，每台售价8.8万元（合1.2万美元）)”，后文“the robots are driven by a powerful advanced learning algorithm (算法) for movement, enabling them to walk naturally and smoothly like humans and to perform complex movements such as front flips(这些机器人由一种强大的先进运动学习算法驱动，使它们能够像人类一样自然而平稳地行走，并执行复杂的动作，如前翻)”结合Despite表示转折关系可知，此处意思是虽然机器人体型小巧，但是却是由强大的学习算法来驱动。故B选项“小的”正确。故选B。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“The company has already showed several robot models, with the most groundbreaking one, the SE01, capable of performing complex actions such as squatting, jumping, doing push ups, and bringing items back.(该公司已经展示了几种机器人模型，其中最具开创性的是SE01，它能够执行复杂的动作，如下蹲、跳跃、做俯卧撑和把东西拿回来)”可知SE01能执行的复杂动作范围更广，故选C。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Humanoid robots have recently been arranged to patrol (巡逻) the streets alongside human police officers in Shenzhen, Guangdong province, where they were noticed in high-visibility police vests performing duties, drawing widespread public attention as they actively communicate with the public.(近日，在广东省深圳市，人形机器人被安排与人类警察一起巡逻街道，在那里，人们注意到它们穿着高能见度的警察背心执行任务，由于它们积极与公众沟通，引起了公众的广泛关注)”以及文章围绕深圳的人形警察巡逻机器人展开介绍，包括机器人的特点、功能、研发公司等，所以D选项“仿人机器人在深圳街道的巡逻”能准确概括文章内容，是最佳标题。故选D。 D The risk of developing Parkinson’s disease is twice as high in men as in women, and new research points to a possible reason why: a protein (蛋白质) in the brain. PTEN-induced kinase 1 (PINK1) protein is not normally a threat, and is important in controlling cellular energy use in the brain. However, the new research shows that in some Parkinson’s cases, the immune system mistakes PINK1 for an enemy, attacking brain cells that express the protein. According to the study, led by a team from the La Jolla Institute for Immunology in California, the PINK1-related damage done by the immune system’s T cells is much more widespread and aggressive in the brains of men than women. “The sex-based differences in T cell responses were very striking,” says Alessandro Sette, “This immune response may be a component of why we see a sex difference in Parkinson’s disease.” Using blood samples from Parkinson’s patients, the researchers tested the response of the T cells in the blood against a variety of proteins previously linked to Parkinson’s—finding PINK1 stood out. In the male Parkinson’s patients, the team noticed a six-time increase in T cells targeting PINK1-tagged brain cells, compared with healthy brains. In the female Parkinson’s patients, there was only a 0.7-time increase. As is always the case with research of this type, once experts know more about how a disease gets started and how it progresses, that opens up new opportunities for finding ways to stop the damage. “We could possibly develop treatments to block these T cells, now that we know why the cells are targeting in the brain,” says Cecilia Lindestam Arlehamn. Further down the line, being able to discover these PINK1-sensitive T cells in blood samples could lead to Parkinson’s disease being diagnosed at an earlier stage—which again helps with treatment and patient support. While we’re waiting to discover a cure for Parkinson’s disease, constant progress is being made in understanding the risk factors involved in its development, and new approaches to dealing with it. 32. What caused the higher risk of Parkinson’s disease in men? A. Men have less PINK1 protein in their brains. B. T cells in women are more active than those in men. C. The immune system in men attacks PINK1 more aggressively. D. Women’s immune systems don’t recognize PINK1 as an enemy. 33. What can we know about T cells in Parkinson’s patients? A. T cells targeting PINK1-tagged brain cells rise more in male patients. B. T cells in female patients increase six-time compared with healthy brains. C. T cells in male patients increase by 0.7-time compared with healthy brains. D. T cells targeting PINK1-tagged brain cells have equal rise in both sex patients. 34. What is the possible benefit of this new research? A. It can protect our immune system. B. It can certainly help cure Parkinson’s disease. C. It can help Parkinson’s disease be diagnosed earlier. D. It can help reduce the risk of developing Parkinson’s disease. 35. What is the author’s attitude towards the research? A. Hopeful B. Unclear C. Negative D. Unconcerned 【答案】32. C 33. A 34. C 35. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了加利福尼亚垃霍免疫学研究团队的发现，男性患帕金森的风险是女性的两倍，指出大脑中的PINK1蛋白质可能是其原因，有望能开始阻断T细胞的疗法并有可能实现帕金森疾病的早诊断。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“According to the study, led by a team from the La Jolla Institute for Immunology in California, the PINK1-related damage done by the immune system’s T cells is much more widespread and aggressive in the brains of men than women. (根据加利福尼亚州拉霍亚免疫学研究所团队领导的一项研究，免疫系统T细胞对PINK1造成的损害在男性大脑中比女性更为广泛和严重。)”可知，男性免疫系统中攻击PINK1的情况更严重，这导致了男性患帕金森病的风险更高。故选C。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“In the male Parkinson’s patients, the team noticed a six-time increase in T cells targeting PINK1-tagged brain cells, compared with healthy brains. In the female Parkinson’s patients, there was only a 0.7-time increase.

The doctors told us that with treatment he would be able to walk normally—but would never run very well. The first three years of his life were spent in operations. By the time he was eight, people wouldn’t know he had a problem when they saw him walk.​ The children in our neighborhood ran around as most children do during play, and Joey would jump right in and run and play, too. We never told him that he probably wouldn’t be able to run as well as the other children. So he didn’t know.​ In seventh grade he decided to try out for the cross-country running team. Every day he trained with the team. He worked harder and ran more than any of the others—perhaps he sensed that the abilities that seemed to come naturally to so many others did not come naturally to him. Although the entire team runs, only the top seven runners have the chance to score points for the school. We didn’t tell him that he probably would never make the team, so he didn’t know.​ He continued to run four to five miles a day every day — even the day he had a fever. I was worried, so I went to look for him after school. When I found him running on the track with a flushed face, I knew I had to tell him the truth. I called him over and sat him down on a bench. With a heavy heart, I told him about his condition and that it might be too much for him to keep training and participate in the competition. ​ 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Joey listened quietly, his eyes lowered. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ That day, as Joey stood at the starting line, he looked more determined than ever. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Joey listened quietly, his eyes downcast. After a long silence, he looked up at me. There was a firm look in his eyes. He showed that he knew it was hard, but he really wanted to keep going. The competition meant the world to him as he had been training so hard for it. He wouldn’t give up easily just because of this setback. His determination surprised me. I could see the strong will in him that refused to be defeated by difficulties. That day, as Joey stood at the starting line, he looked more determined than ever. When the whistle blew, he rushed out with all his strength. Despite his physical condition, he ran with great speed and passion. The audience cheered loudly for him. He ignored the pain and the possible failure. He just focused on running towards the finish line. Finally, he crossed it with a big smile on his face. He had proved himself and shown that nothing could stop him from chasing his dreams. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了天生畸形腿的 Joey，在经过治疗后努力克服身体缺陷，坚持训练参加越野跑团队。尽管父母知晓他可能难以成功入选，但并未提前告知真相。后来在他发烧仍坚持训练时，父母告知他实情，而Joey凭借坚定的意志，最终在比赛中成功证明自己，展现了永不言弃的精神。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“Joey垂下眼睛静静地听着。”可知，第一段可描写Joey 面对父母告知的真相，其内心的态度和反应，以及他对于继续坚持训练参加比赛的想法，为后文他参加比赛做铺垫 ②由第二段首句内容“那天，当Joey站在起跑线上时，他看起来比以往任何时候都更加坚定。”可知，第二段可描写作者Joey 站在起跑线上后的比赛过程，包括他在比赛中的表现、状态，以及最终的结果，体现他追逐梦想的成果。 2.续写线索：告知真相 ——Joey 表明决心——站在起跑线——比赛过程——成功冲线证明自己 3.词汇激活 3.行为类 ① 放弃：give up /abandon ② 坚持：keep going /persevere ③ 拒绝：refuse/ decline 情绪类 ① 决心：determination /resolve ② 坚持的：firm /resolute/steadfast 【点睛】【高分句型 1】He showed that he knew it was hard, but he really wanted to keep going.（运用了 that 引导的宾语从句） 【高分句型 2】He had proved himself and shown that nothing could stop him from chasing his dreams.（运用了 that引导的宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$nullAre you going out, andy?

Here’s when and where to see these flowers across the US. The National Cherry Blossom Festival (Washington, D.C., March 20-April 13) Eleven species of flowering cherry tree surround the Tidal Basin fronting the Potomac River in National Capitol Park. Their beautiful flowers attract some 1.5 million people during the four-week celebration, which is in honor of spring and international friendship. Events include a kite festival, parade and fireworks, while across the capital, schools and neighborhoods plant new trees, and everything from buildings to buses are covered with pink. International Cherry Blossom Festival (Macon, Georgia, March 21-30) Georgia’s Macon-Bibb county has the largest concentration of cherry trees in any U.S. county—and boasts nearly one hundred times more than the National Mall in Washington, D.C. The area celebrates its blossoms with plant sales, a parade, concerts, outdoor movies, and markets. The festival ends with hot air balloon rides and fireworks over downtown. Ohio University’s Cherry Blossom Festival (Athens, Ohio, March 31-April 15) Ohio University’s 217 cherry trees line the bike path along the Hocking River beyond campus, living gifts from its sister institution, Chubu University in Japan. Each year, during peak bloom—usually late March to mid-April—the blossoms across from Wren baseball stadium are lit for late-night viewing. The Japanese Student Association hosts a Sakura Festival to celebrate their flowering. 21. What do The National Cherry Blossom Festival and International Cherry Blossom Festival have in common? A. Both of them include a kite festival. B. Both of them include outdoor movies. C. Both of them end with hot air balloon rides. D Both of them include a parade and fireworks. 22.

Education B A handwritten obituary (讣告) for a hippo by a zookeeper in East China’s Nanjing has spread quickly as it detailed the hippo’s life, moving both zoo visitors and netizens alike. “On January 18, hippo Fei Fei passed away due to a lung infection (感染) caused by asthma, leaving his wife Jin Jin at the exhibition zone,” read the notice handwritten by an animal keeper in Hongshan Forest Zoo. According to the obituary, Fei Fei was born in 1997 and had lived in the zoo since it opened in 1998. Fei Fei, who never got sick, was found to dive shorter and was diagnosed with asthma in March 2021. His condition kept worsening despite regular medical care, the notice said. “The skin on his legs began to rot...Fearing infection, I changed his water daily and carefully applied medicine to each wound. However, he still left, taking away my three years of hopes,” read the notice. “We will not forget the great contributions Fei Fei made to the hippo population and we value the 27 years he spent with us,” read the obituary. The zoo has started to design and will soon build a new exhibition zone with a large hippo house, a powerful filtration system, a simulated African ecological environment, alongside other African animals for companionship, the obituary added. It is customary for the zoo to write obituaries for certain animals that pass away. The words in the obituary are simple and sincere, reflecting the deep relationship between the keeper and the animal, one netizen wrote. In January 2023, the zoo penned an obituary for sun bear Lao Ma, thinking back to the 33-year-old animal’s moments at the zoo. 24. Why has the handwritten obituary for Fei Fei spread quickly? A.

The close connection between humans and zoo animals. C Humanoid robots have recently been arranged to patrol (巡逻) the streets alongside human police officers in Shenzhen, Guangdong province, where they were noticed in high-visibility police vests performing duties, drawing widespread public attention as they actively communicate with the public. An online popular video shows the robot walking in formation with police officers and enthusiastically shaking hands with people. It waved to the crowd and carried out voice commands, drawing many onlookers and bringing the city streets to life. These humanoid robots, named as model PM01, were released on December 24, 2024. Standing at 1.38 metres tall and weighing 40kg, they cost 88,000 yuan (US $12,000) each. Despite their compact size, the robots are driven by a powerful advanced learning algorithm (算法) for movement, enabling them to walk naturally and smoothly like humans and to perform complex movements such as front flips. Equipped with powerful chips and various sensors, including a LiDAR system — a device that uses lasers (激光) to measure distance and map their surroundings — these robots can accurately respond to commands and navigate through environments. The PM01 was engineered by EngineAI, a Shenzhen-based startup founded in 2023. The company has already showed several robot models, with the most groundbreaking one, the SE01, capable of performing complex actions such as squatting, jumping, doing push ups, and bringing items back. Although the PM01 is currently in limited use within the Shenzhen police force, they help officers with patrol duties, possibly reducing their workload. The police robot generated significant interest after videos were shared on YouTube. Many Chinese online observers are eager to see more technologies walk into their everyday lives. One person expressed: “Beyond military and law enforcement applications, household service robots have the highest demand and greatest qualities that can be developed among humanoid robots. If they can replace housekeepers at an affordable price, we will enter a new era of humanoid robots.” 28. What was the public’s first reaction to humanoid robots patrolling in Shenzhen? A. The public quickly got tired of the robots. B. The public was interested in the robots’ performance. C. The public feared the tech and avoided robot-patrolled areas. D. The public doubted the robots’ ability to perform the police duties. 29. What does the underlined word “compact” in the third paragraph probably mean? A. huge B. small C. medium D. wrong 30. What do we know about the SE01 robot model? A. It is more expensive than the PM01. B. It is designed to work mainly in households. C. It can perform a wider range of actions than PM01. D. It is now being used by the Shenzhen police in large numbers. 31. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?​ A. The Future of Humanoid Robots B. The High Cost of Humanoid Robots C. The Development of Humanoid Robots D. The Patrol of Humanoid Robots in Shenzhen Streets​ D The risk of developing Parkinson’s disease is twice as high in men as in women, and new research points to a possible reason why: a protein (蛋白质) in the brain. PTEN-induced kinase 1 (PINK1) protein is not normally a threat, and is important in controlling cellular energy use in the brain. However, the new research shows that in some Parkinson’s cases, the immune system mistakes PINK1 for an enemy, attacking brain cells that express the protein. According to the study, led by a team from the La Jolla Institute for Immunology in California, the PINK1-related damage done by the immune system’s T cells is much more widespread and aggressive in the brains of men than women. “The sex-based differences in T cell responses were very striking,” says Alessandro Sette, “This immune response may be a component of why we see a sex difference in Parkinson’s disease.” Using blood samples from Parkinson’s patients, the researchers tested the response of the T cells in the blood against a variety of proteins previously linked to Parkinson’s—finding PINK1 stood out. In the male Parkinson’s patients, the team noticed a six-time increase in T cells targeting PINK1-tagged brain cells, compared with healthy brains. In the female Parkinson’s patients, there was only a 0.7-time increase. As is always the case with research of this type, once experts know more about how a disease gets started and how it progresses, that opens up new opportunities for finding ways to stop the damage. “We could possibly develop treatments to block these T cells, now that we know why the cells are targeting in the brain,” says Cecilia Lindestam Arlehamn. Further down the line, being able to discover these PINK1-sensitive T cells in blood samples could lead to Parkinson’s disease being diagnosed at an earlier stage—which again helps with treatment and patient support. While we’re waiting to discover a cure for Parkinson’s disease, constant progress is being made in understanding the risk factors involved in its development, and new approaches to dealing with it. 32. What caused the higher risk of Parkinson’s disease in men? A. Men have less PINK1 protein in their brains. B. T cells in women are more active than those in men. C. The immune system in men attacks PINK1 more aggressively. D. Women’s immune systems don’t recognize PINK1 as an enemy. 33. What can we know about T cells in Parkinson’s patients? A. T cells targeting PINK1-tagged brain cells rise more in male patients. B. T cells in female patients increase six-time compared with healthy brains. C. T cells in male patients increase by 0.7-time compared with healthy brains. D. T cells targeting PINK1-tagged brain cells have equal rise in both sex patients. 34. What is the possible benefit of this new research? A. It can protect our immune system. B. It can certainly help cure Parkinson’s disease. C. It can help Parkinson’s disease be diagnosed earlier. D. It can help reduce the risk of developing Parkinson’s disease. 35. What is the author’s attitude towards the research? A. Hopeful B. Unclear C. Negative D. Unconcerned 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。 In our daily life，we will often have a bottle of water with us when we go anywhere and most of the time we will drink everything. ___36___ We usually throw water bottles into the trash because we know nothing special about plastic bottles.

The doctors told us that with treatment he would be able to walk normally—but would never run very well. The first three years of his life were spent in operations. By the time he was eight, people wouldn’t know he had a problem when they saw him walk.​ The children in our neighborhood ran around as most children do during play, and Joey would jump right in and run and play, too. We never told him that he probably wouldn’t be able to run as well as the other children. So he didn’t know.​ In seventh grade he decided to try out for the cross-country running team. Every day he trained with the team. He worked harder and ran more than any of the others—perhaps he sensed that the abilities that seemed to come naturally to so many others did not come naturally to him. Although the entire team runs, only the top seven runners have the chance to score points for the school. We didn’t tell him that he probably would never make the team, so he didn’t know.​ He continued to run four to five miles a day, every day — even the day he had a fever. I was worried, so I went to look for him after school. When I found him running on the track with a flushed face, I knew I had to tell him the truth. I called him over and sat him down on a bench. With a heavy heart, I told him about his condition and that it might be too much for him to keep training and participate in the competition. ​ 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Joey listened quietly, his eyes lowered. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ That day, as Joey stood at the starting line, he looked more determined than ever. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$IT was raining last saturday morning when the sky became clear. In the afternoon, I decided to go to a small park near my home for a walk. While I was walking around there, I noticed a call for a park cleanup volunteer group at the state park just ten miles from my home. They were getting park lovers together to do annual cleaning so the entire community can enjoy the Green space. This spring, the clean up would take place. The following day, I wanted to help. After I returned home, I told my parents about my plan. They were both very supportive. Since my mother works at a hospital and had an Operation to perform the next day, SHE couldn't go with me, but my father, who teaches at a school, decided to go with me. We went to the state park in my father's car. When we got there, there were already dozens of people. We started to work at nine thirty AM. We cleared fAllen branches and dead trees of natural trails and walking paths. We added a fresh layer of soil to flower beds. We also picked up garbage and leaves. We all enjoyed ourselves there.
