The students were trying to found a company to improve recycling in Nigeria, but they needed someone who could handle the computer programming and other technical elements. Kola, an electrical engineering and computer science major at the Harvard was greatly inspired and he joined them part time. That start-up, Wecyclers, ended up influencing so many decisions Kola would make later in his career. Like the MIT students, he went on to business school, eventually getting his MBA from Stanford University. After graduating both SEAS and Stanford, Kola worked at Google as a cloud engineer for three years. He was fascinated by the company’s ongoing research into self-driving cars, but noticed that the streets those cars were tested on were of a much higher quality than in his home country. He eventually founded his own company, AMT Technologies. AMT produces an artificial intelligence-based driver safety platform, capable of detecting everything from potential crashes to distracted driving. Kola founded the company to address a major challenge in Africa, which has the highest rate of road deaths of any region in the world, with Kenya among the worst countries. Kola owes those deaths and injuries to a range of factors, from poorly maintained roads to a lack of enforcement of road rules to a high frequency of older cars. “A vehicle that rolls off the Ford production line in 2024 has so many bells and whistles with regards to safety, such as self-braking systems and crash warning,” he said. “But in Kenya, most of the vehicles that are imported tend to be at least seven years old, so they’ll have less complicated safety systems.” Kola said, “I’m always curious about new technologies, always trying to see what’s out there and how it could be applied to Kenya.” 4. How did Wecyclers influence Kola’s career choice? A. It inspired him to work at Google. B. It taught him technical skills. C. It provided him with financial support. D. It motivated him to pursue an MBA. 5. Why did Kola leave Google? A. He disliked the company’s focus on self-driving cars. B. He determined to tackle issues specific to his country. C. He aimed to earn higher pay by starting his own business. D. He wanted to compete with Ford’s vehicle safety systems. 6. What is the main function of AMT’ driver safety platform? A. To maintain roads in poor-condition areas. B. To upgrade outdated vehicle safety systems. C. To design self-braking systems for new vehicles. D. To detect potential crashes and distracted driving. 7. Which can be the best title for the text? A. Wealth and Wisdom: How Education Transforms Lives B. From Harvard to Google: A Journey of Academic Excellence C. Innovation with Purpose: Tech Solutions for Local Challenges D. The Future of Self-Driving Cars: A Kenyan Engineer’s Vision 【答案】4. D 5. B 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了 Jonathan Kola从哈佛学生到科技企业家的成长历程。他在哈佛期间参与初创企业 We cyclers，受MIT学生启发攻读MBA，后入职谷歌研究自动驾驶技术，但最终选择离开并创立AMT Technologies，致力于通过人工智能驾驶安全平台解决非洲(尤其是肯尼亚)的高交通事故率问题。文章强调了他将技术创新与本土社会需求结合的使命感。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Like the MIT students, he went on to business school, eventually getting his MBA from Stanford University. (像麻省理工学院的学生一样，他去了商学院，最终在斯坦福大学获得了MBA学位。)”可知，We cyclers的经历促使 Kola选择与MIT 学生相似的职业路径，即攻读 MBA。故选D。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“He was fascinated by the company’s ongoing research into self-driving cars, but noticed that the streets those cars were tested on were of a much higher quality than in his home country. He eventually founded his own company, AMT Technologies. (他对该公司正在进行的自动驾驶汽车研究非常着迷，但他注意到，这些汽车所测试的街道的质量要比他的祖国高得多。他最终成立了自己的公司AMT Technologies。)”以及第四段“Kola founded the company to address a major challenge in Africa, which has the highest rate of road deaths of any region in the world, with Kenya among the worst countries. (科拉创立这家公司是为了应对非洲面临的一个重大挑战。非洲是世界上交通事故死亡率最高的地区，其中肯尼亚是交通事故最严重的国家之一。)”可推断，Kola离开谷歌是为了解决祖国面临的独特挑战。故选B。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“AMT produces an artificial intelligence-based driver safety platform, capable of detecting everything from potential crashes to distracted driving. (AMT生产了一个基于人工智能的驾驶员安全平台，能够检测从潜在碰撞到分心驾驶的一切。)”可知，AMT驾驶员安全平台的主要功能是检测潜在的撞车事故和分心驾驶。故选D。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“AMT produces an artificial intelligence-based driver safety platform, capable of detecting everything from potential crashes to distracted driving. (AMT生产了一个基于人工智能的驾驶员安全平台，能够检测从潜在碰撞到分心驾驶的一切。)”以及全文围绕 Kola将技术创新应用于解决本土社会问题，如非洲高交通事故率而展开。故C选项“目的性创新：应对当地挑战的技术解决方案”最符合文章标题。故选C。 C To create truly dynamic ecosystems that host a lot of biodiversity, benefit local people, and produce lots of different foods, a forest needs a wide variety of species. Left on their own, some deforested areas can restore surprisingly fast with minimal help from humans. New research from an international team of scientists finds that 830,000 square miles of deforested land in wet tropical regions — an area larger than Mexico — could regrow naturally if left on its own. Brazil, Indonesia, China, Mexico, and Colombia account for 52 percent of the estimated potential regrowth. According to the researchers, that would boost biodiversity and suck up 23.4 gigatons of carbon over the next three decades. A rainforest can spring up in one to three years, while that sort of regrowth isn’t a given, though. First of all, humans would have to stop using the land for intensive agriculture — achieve big yields thanks to fertilizers and other chemicals — or raising herds of cattle, the weight of which makes it hard for new plants to take root. Cows, of course, also tend to prefer young plants. Secondly, it helps for tropical soil to have a high carbon content to provide for plants. Organic carbon really helps the soil to be nutritious in terms of its ability to hold water. Places with soils like that are much more likely to have forests pop up. It’s also beneficial for a degraded area to be near a standing tropical forest. That way, birds can fly across the area, letting out seeds they have eaten in the forest. And once those plants get established, animal species like monkeys can feed on their fruits and spread seeds, too. This starts a self-completing cycle of biodiversity. The more biodiversity, the more a forest can stand shocks. If one species disappears because of disease, for instance, another similar one might fill the void. When biodiversity is built in the system, it tends to be more functional in an ecological sense, and it tends to be more strong. 8. What is the function of paragraph 2? A. To highlight the extent of deforestation globally. B. To discuss the challenges of restoring deforested land. C. To illustrate a damaged rainforest can regrow on its own. D. To emphasize the need for human efforts in forest recovery. 9. Which of the following benefits the regrowth of a rainforest? A. The soil rich in carbon. B. The urban development nearby. C. The presence of large cattle herds. D. The intensive agricultural practices. 10. What does the underlined word mean in the last paragraph? A. Form. B. Gap. C. Detail D. Survey 11. What is the text mainly about? A. The role of humans in forest management. B. The negative impacts of intensive agriculture. C. The importance of biodiversity in ecosystems. D. The potential for natural regrowth of deforested areas. 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章探讨了被砍伐的热带雨林通过自然再生恢复生态系统的潜力，分析了自然恢复的条件，并强调了生物多样性对维持森林稳定和功能的重要性。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“New research from an international team of scientists finds that 830,000 square miles of deforested land in wet tropical regions — an area larger than Mexico — could regrow naturally if left on its own.(一个国际科学家团队的新研究发现，潮湿热带地区83万平方英里的被砍伐土地 —— 面积比墨西哥还大 —— 如果任其发展，可能会自然再生。)”可知，第二段通过具体数据说明被砍伐的土地具备自然再生的潜力，呼应第一段“部分被砍伐地区可在最少人类帮助下快速恢复”的观点。故选C项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Secondly, it helps for tropical soil to have a high carbon content to provide for plants. Organic carbon really helps the soil to be nutritious in terms of its ability to hold water.(其次，热带土壤具有高碳含量对植物生长有帮助。有机碳确实有助于土壤保持水分，使其具有营养。)”可知，富碳土壤能为植物提供养分并保持水分，有利于雨林再生。故选A项。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据最后一段“If one species disappears because of disease, for instance, another similar one might fill the void.(例如，如果一个物种因疾病消失，另一个类似的物种可能会填补这个void。)”以及结合语境可知，void指物种消失后留下的“空缺”。故选B项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，第一段提出“部分林地可自然恢复”，第二段用研究数据支持这一结论，第三、四段分析再生条件（如停止农业活动、富碳土壤、邻近森林），最后一段强调生物多样性的重要性。全文主旨为：被砍伐的热带林地具备自然再生潜力。故选D项。 D In an era when the average person checks their smartphone nearly 144 times a day, devoting oneself to a lengthy novel or complex piece of literature has become a rarity. The digital revolution, while bringing easy access to information, has degraded our capacity for deep reading. Deep reading is more than just processing words on a page; it’s an experience that involves critical thinking, empathy (共情) , and knowledge exploration. This form of reading allows individuals to engage with complex ideas and connect emotionally with texts. Historically, deep reading has been instrumental in education and personal development, cultivating a person capable of critical thought and innovation. In a digital age, the way we consume information has dramatically changed. For instance, social media platforms are designed to catch our attention through endless browsing and bite-sized content. This design can weaken our patience for longer, more demanding texts. A study from Microsoft Corp. suggested that the human attention span has decreased from 12 seconds in 2000 to about 8 seconds today, highlighting how digital media affects our ability to concentrate. In the digital landscape, attention has become what companies compete for, often employing strategies that disturb our attention spans. Notices, advertisements, and big data-based content make it difficult for readers to find the uninterrupted time necessary for deep reading. Our brains are remarkably adaptable, and the way we process information can change with our habits. Neuroscientists have found that regular Internet use can rewire neural pathways, favoring quick decision-making and surface processing over deep thinking. Nicholas Carr argues that the Internet encourages rapid, distracted sampling of small bits of information from many sources—a mode of thinking that is contrary to deep reading. The decline in deep reading doesn’t just affect individual cognition (认知) ; it has broader societal consequences. In education, students accustomed to surface-level reading may struggle with texts that require analysis and critical thinking. This trend can lead to a workforce less prepared for jobs that demand deep understanding and problem-solving skills. Given the challenges, how can we preserve and promote deep reading in the digital age? 12. Why is deep reading important? A. It promotes the use of social media. B. It boosts readers` innovative ability. C. It allows for faster decision-making. D. It enables quick scanning of information. 13. How do the Internet and digital media affect deep reading? A. They improve reading efficiency. B. They increase access to diverse resources. C. They contributes to divided attention habits. D. They provide new ideas for better understanding. 14. What message does the author mainly convey in para 5? A. The human brain has a strong adaptability. B. The internet has a positive impact on our brains. C. The way we process information changes with our habits. D. The internet disfavors deep reading despite its advantages. 15. What is expected to be talked about next? A. Strategies to promote deep reading. B. The future application of digital media. C The benefits of digital reading materials. D. Historical examples of deep reading practices. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。数字时代人们深度阅读能力下降，深度阅读对培养批判性思维和创新力重要，需应对数字媒体带来的挑战。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Historically, deep reading has been instrumental in education and personal development, cultivating a person capable of critical thought and innovation.(从历史上看，深度阅读在教育和个人发展中至关重要，它培养一个人具备批判性思维和创新能力。)”可知，深度阅读能提升读者的创新能力。故选B项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“A study from Microsoft Corp. suggested that the human attention span has decreased from 12 seconds in 2000 to about 8 seconds today, highlighting how digital media affects our ability to concentrate.(微软公司一项研究表明，人类的注意力持续时间从2000年的12秒下降到如今的约8秒，突显了数字媒体对我们集中注意力能力的影响。)”可知，数字媒体导致人们注意力分散，形成分心的习惯。故选C项。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第五段“Our brains are remarkably adaptable, and the way we process information can change with our habits. Neuroscientists have found that regular Internet use can rewire neural pathways, favoring quick decision-making and surface processing over deep thinking. Nicholas Carr argues that the Internet encourages rapid, distracted sampling of small bits of information from many sources—a mode of thinking that is contrary to deep reading.(我们的大脑具有极强的适应性，我们处理信息的方式会随着我们的习惯而改变。神经科学家发现，经常使用互联网可以重新连接神经通路，有利于快速决策和表面处理，而不是深度思考。Nicholas Carr认为，互联网鼓励从许多来源快速、分散注意力地提取少量信息，这是一种与深度阅读相反的思维方式。)”可知，作者强调互联网虽有适应性优势，但本质上不利于深度阅读。故选D项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Given the challenges, how can we preserve and promote deep reading in the digital age?(鉴于这些挑战，我们如何在数字时代保留和促进深度阅读？)”可知，作者在提出问题后，下文逻辑应为探讨解决策略。故选A项。 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。 Creative Thinking Creative thinking is coming up with ideas or solutions to problems that other people can’t. It is letting imagination run free thinking out of the box, forgetting what is expected and looking for the unexpected or a way to do the impossible. ____16____ For children, creative thinking comes so easily. ____17____ Yet, for others, they struggle along, wishing they could be more imaginative, but afraid to try. ____18____ Ignore the fear and make the effort. Let go of the restrictions you have placed on your thoughts that are creating a cautious approach to life. Now is the time to turn all that stored creativity into a power for leading a happier and more productive life. The second step is to open your mind to all ideas and opinions. Being open minded is a willingness to look at every situation from more than one perspective, and acknowledging that others’ perspectives may be smarter than your own. Being open to discovery, learning, and giving yourself permission to explore all possibilities is the key to creative thinking. ____19____ So if you have become one of those who are unwilling to listen to anyone, it’s time to change. Look beyond the obvious. Creative thinkers look for the not-so-obvious answers rather than get stuck on the obvious solutions. ____20____ They are not afraid of sounding silly or being laughed at about their wild suggestions. Then, from the list they create — including everything from the obvious to the impossible, they find a solution that works. A. The first step is to stop being afraid. B. Even for some adults it appears to be a natural “talent.” C. You don’t have to agree with everyone; just follow your heart. D. Plus, different perspectives can be a stimulus for new ideas. E. They will brainstorm and quickly come up with multiple ideas. F. It can be used in every aspect of life-personal and professional. G. Incredible opportunities are missed because of lazy thinking patterns. 【答案】16. F 17. B 18. A 19. D 20.

The cub’s leg was badly hurt, and its golden eyes shone with fear under the pale winter sun. Though her father had repeatedly warned her about the dangers of wild animals, Mia couldn’t bear to leave the suffering creature. Carefully, she used her woolen scarf to open the trap, freeing the cub. She named it Amber and placed dried meat from her lunch bag nearby, hoping to give it strength. To her amazement, Amber returned the next morning, limping (跛的) but alive, its eyes now filled with cautious curiosity. Over the following weeks, Amber began appearing during Mia’ s daily walks in the pine forests. At first, the cub kept a safe distance. Slowly, trust grew between them. Mia shared her sandwiches, while Amber guided her to secret paths leading to clear streams and sheltered caves. Their bond deepened — Amber would rub its head against Mia’ s leg like a pet cat, and Mia learned to recognize the cub’s different calls. However, everything changed one evening at sunset. Mia’ s father discovered Amber near their sheep fences. “That wild beast will kill our sheep!” he shouted angrily, grabbing a thick wooden stick. Mia screamed, “She’s my friend! Please don’t hurt her!” Sensing danger, Amber ran into the shadowy forest, leaving Mia standing frozen with tears. Heartbroken, Mia searched the mountains tirelessly. Every morning before school, she left meat near their favorite meeting spot — a flat rock beneath a giant pine tree. Every afternoon, she wandered through icy valleys calling Amber’s name. Weeks passed, but the cub never reappeared. The mountains felt emptier, their silence broken only by the lonely wind. Mia’ s doubts grew heavier — had her kindness driven Amber into greater danger? Was it possible for humans and wild animals to truly trust each other? Snow began to fall again, covering the paths. The wilderness offered no answers, only the rushing wind. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 One stormy night, Mia heard a weak cry coming from the edge of the forest. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When spring arrived, a familiar shadow appeared under the giant pine tree. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 One stormy night, Mia heard a weak cry coming from the edge of the forest. Ignoring the coldness, she followed the sound and found Amber, her injured leg bloody. Without hesitation, Mia carried the poor cub home. Her father stood at the doorway, his angry expression softening as he saw the dying cub and the anxiety in his daughter’ s eyes. Together, they cleaned the injury and fed her warm milk. For days, Amber rested by the fireplace until her strength returned. One dawn, Mia opened the door. Amber glanced back and then disappeared into the forest. When spring arrived, a familiar shadow appeared under the giant pine tree. Amber stood there, healthy and tall, with sunlight shining on her body. She approached Mia, rubbing its head against Mia’ s leg gently — a gesture unchanged since their first meeting. Mia’ s father watched from afar, his earlier anger replaced by quiet awe. “She remembers,” he murmured. As Amber walked away, Mia smiled. She realized that true kindness involves care and respect. Humans and nature aren’t masters and servants, but neighbors sharing one precious world. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。Mia在山间救助受伤雪豹幼崽Amber，彼此建立信任。父亲发现后驱赶Amber，它躲进森林。Mia苦寻无果，陷入人类与野生动物能否真正信任思考。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段句首内容“一个风雨交加的夜晚，Mia听到森林边缘传来一声微弱的哭声。”可知，第一段可描写暴风雨夜Mia听到Amber的哭声，不顾寒冷救助受伤的它，父亲看到奄奄一息的幼崽态度软化，父女俩共同照料Amber直至其康复离开。 ②由第二段句首内容“春天来了，一个熟悉的影子出现在巨大的松树下。”可知，第二段可描写春天Amber健康回归，与Mia亲昵互动，父亲从愤怒转为敬畏，Mia从中领悟到人类与自然应彼此尊重、和谐共处的真谛。 续写线索：Mia救助受伤Amber—— 父亲态度转变 ——父女照料Amber——Amber康复离去 —— 春日Amber 回归 —— 领悟人自然和谐相处 行为类 ① 跟随声音：follow the sound/track the sound ②带……回家：carry...home/bring...back home ③ 走近：approach/get close to 情绪类 ① 愤怒：angry/irritated ② 焦虑：anxiety/worry 【点睛】【高分句型1】Her father stood at the doorway, his angry expression softening as he saw the dying cub and the anxiety in his daughter’ s eyes.

The students were trying to found a company to improve recycling in Nigeria, but they needed someone who could handle the computer programming and other technical elements. Kola, an electrical engineering and computer science major at the Harvard was greatly inspired and he joined them part time. That start-up, Wecyclers, ended up influencing so many decisions Kola would make later in his career. Like the MIT students, he went on to business school, eventually getting his MBA from Stanford University. After graduating both SEAS and Stanford, Kola worked at Google as a cloud engineer for three years. He was fascinated by the company’s ongoing research into self-driving cars, but noticed that the streets those cars were tested on were of a much higher quality than in his home country. He eventually founded his own company, AMT Technologies. AMT produces an artificial intelligence-based driver safety platform, capable of detecting everything from potential crashes to distracted driving. Kola founded the company to address a major challenge in Africa, which has the highest rate of road deaths of any region in the world, with Kenya among the worst countries. Kola owes those deaths and injuries to a range of factors, from poorly maintained roads to a lack of enforcement of road rules to a high frequency of older cars. “A vehicle that rolls off the Ford production line in 2024 has so many bells and whistles with regards to safety, such as self-braking systems and crash warning,” he said. “But in Kenya, most of the vehicles that are imported tend to be at least seven years old, so they’ll have less complicated safety systems.” Kola said, “I’m always curious about new technologies, always trying to see what’s out there and how it could be applied to Kenya.” 4. How did Wecyclers influence Kola’s career choice? A. It inspired him to work at Google. B. It taught him technical skills. C. It provided him with financial support. D. It motivated him to pursue an MBA. 5. Why did Kola leave Google? A He disliked the company’s focus on self-driving cars. B. He determined to tackle issues specific to his country. C. He aimed to earn higher pay by starting his own business. D. He wanted to compete with Ford’s vehicle safety systems. 6. What is the main function of AMT’ driver safety platform? A. To maintain roads in poor-condition areas. B. To upgrade outdated vehicle safety systems. C. To design self-braking systems for new vehicles. D. To detect potential crashes and distracted driving. 7. Which can be the best title for the text? A. Wealth and Wisdom: How Education Transforms Lives B. From Harvard to Google: A Journey of Academic Excellence C. Innovation with Purpose: Tech Solutions for Local Challenges D. The Future of Self-Driving Cars: A Kenyan Engineer’s Vision C To create truly dynamic ecosystems that host a lot of biodiversity, benefit local people, and produce lots of different foods, a forest needs a wide variety of species. Left on their own, some deforested areas can restore surprisingly fast with minimal help from humans. New research from an international team of scientists finds that 830,000 square miles of deforested land in wet tropical regions — an area larger than Mexico — could regrow naturally if left on its own. Brazil, Indonesia, China, Mexico, and Colombia account for 52 percent of the estimated potential regrowth. According to the researchers, that would boost biodiversity and suck up 23.4 gigatons of carbon over the next three decades. A rainforest can spring up in one to three years, while that sort of regrowth isn’t a given, though. First of all, humans would have to stop using the land for intensive agriculture — achieve big yields thanks to fertilizers and other chemicals — or raising herds of cattle, the weight of which makes it hard for new plants to take root. Cows, of course, also tend to prefer young plants. Secondly, it helps for tropical soil to have a high carbon content to provide for plants. Organic carbon really helps the soil to be nutritious in terms of its ability to hold water. Places with soils like that are much more likely to have forests pop up. It’s also beneficial for a degraded area to be near a standing tropical forest. That way, birds can fly across the area, letting out seeds they have eaten in the forest. And once those plants get established, animal species like monkeys can feed on their fruits and spread seeds, too. This starts a self-completing cycle of biodiversity. The more biodiversity, the more a forest can stand shocks. If one species disappears because of disease, for instance, another similar one might fill the void. When biodiversity is built in the system, it tends to be more functional in an ecological sense, and it tends to be more strong. 8. What is the function of paragraph 2? A. To highlight the extent of deforestation globally. B. To discuss the challenges of restoring deforested land. C. To illustrate a damaged rainforest can regrow on its own. D. To emphasize the need for human efforts in forest recovery. 9. Which of the following benefits the regrowth of a rainforest? A. The soil rich in carbon. B. The urban development nearby. C. The presence of large cattle herds. D. The intensive agricultural practices. 10. What does the underlined word mean in the last paragraph? A. Form. B. Gap. C. Detail D. Survey 11 What is the text mainly about? A. The role of humans in forest management. B. The negative impacts of intensive agriculture. C. The importance of biodiversity in ecosystems. D. The potential for natural regrowth of deforested areas. D In an era when the average person checks their smartphone nearly 144 times a day, devoting oneself to a lengthy novel or complex piece of literature has become a rarity. The digital revolution, while bringing easy access to information, has degraded our capacity for deep reading. Deep reading is more than just processing words on a page; it’s an experience that involves critical thinking, empathy (共情) , and knowledge exploration. This form of reading allows individuals to engage with complex ideas and connect emotionally with texts. Historically, deep reading has been instrumental in education and personal development, cultivating a person capable of critical thought and innovation. In a digital age the way we consume information has dramatically changed. For instance, social media platforms are designed to catch our attention through endless browsing and bite-sized content. This design can weaken our patience for longer, more demanding texts. A study from Microsoft Corp. suggested that the human attention span has decreased from 12 seconds in 2000 to about 8 seconds today, highlighting how digital media affects our ability to concentrate. In the digital landscape, attention has become what companies compete for, often employing strategies that disturb our attention spans. Notices, advertisements, and big data-based content make it difficult for readers to find the uninterrupted time necessary for deep reading. Our brains are remarkably adaptable, and the way we process information can change with our habits. Neuroscientists have found that regular Internet use can rewire neural pathways, favoring quick decision-making and surface processing over deep thinking. Nicholas Carr argues that the Internet encourages rapid, distracted sampling of small bits of information from many sources—a mode of thinking that is contrary to deep reading. The decline in deep reading doesn’t just affect individual cognition (认知) ; it has broader societal consequences. In education, students accustomed to surface-level reading may struggle with texts that require analysis and critical thinking. This trend can lead to a workforce less prepared for jobs that demand deep understanding and problem-solving skills. Given the challenges, how can we preserve and promote deep reading in the digital age? 12. Why is deep reading important? A. It promotes the use of social media. B. It boosts readers` innovative ability. C. It allows for faster decision-making. D. It enables quick scanning of information. 13. How do the Internet and digital media affect deep reading? A. They improve reading efficiency. B. They increase access to diverse resources. C. They contributes to divided attention habits. D. They provide new ideas for better understanding. 14. What message does the author mainly convey in para 5? A. The human brain has a strong adaptability. B. The internet has a positive impact on our brains. C. The way we process information changes with our habits. D. The internet disfavors deep reading despite its advantages. 15. What is expected to be talked about next? A. Strategies to promote deep reading. B. The future application of digital media. C. The benefits of digital reading materials. D. Historical examples of deep reading practices. 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。 Creative Thinking Creative thinking is coming up with ideas or solutions to problems that other people can’t.

The cub’s leg was badly hurt, and its golden eyes shone with fear under the pale winter sun. Though her father had repeatedly warned her about the dangers of wild animals, Mia couldn’t bear to leave the suffering creature. Carefully, she used her woolen scarf to open the trap, freeing the cub. She named it Amber and placed dried meat from her lunch bag nearby, hoping to give it strength. To her amazement, Amber returned the next morning, limping (跛的) but alive, its eyes now filled with cautious curiosity. Over the following weeks, Amber began appearing during Mia’ s daily walks in the pine forests. At first, the cub kept a safe distance. Slowly, trust grew between them. Mia shared her sandwiches, while Amber guided her to secret paths leading to clear streams and sheltered caves. Their bond deepened — Amber would rub its head against Mia’ s leg like a pet cat, and Mia learned to recognize the cub’s different calls. However, everything changed one evening at sunset. Mia’ s father discovered Amber near their sheep fences. “That wild beast will kill our sheep!” he shouted angrily, grabbing a thick wooden stick. Mia screamed, “She’s my friend! Please don’t hurt her!” Sensing danger, Amber ran into the shadowy forest, leaving Mia standing frozen with tears. Heartbroken, Mia searched the mountains tirelessly. Every morning before school, she left meat near their favorite meeting spot — a flat rock beneath a giant pine tree. Every afternoon, she wandered through icy valleys calling Amber’s name. Weeks passed, but the cub never reappeared. The mountains felt emptier, their silence broken only by the lonely wind. Mia’ s doubts grew heavier — had her kindness driven Amber into greater danger? Was it possible for humans and wild animals to truly trust each other? Snow began to fall again, covering the paths. The wilderness offered no answers, only the rushing wind. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 One stormy night, Mia heard a weak cry coming from the edge of the forest. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When spring arrived, a familiar shadow appeared under the giant pine tree. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
