Unless you’re Justin and Jessica Walker. It was August 2004. Jessica, then a Virginia Commonwealth University student, was waiting outside the campus gym, her ride home nowhere to be seen. Justin walked out and offered a ride and shelter from the increasing downpour. She recognized him from orientation (迎新会) a few days before — they’d just chatted briefly there. “I was like, OK, maybe he’s hitting on me,” Jessica later told WTVR. But it was raining buckets, so she accepted. Buckets turned to barrels as Justin, new to Richmond, made a wrong turn onto Main Street, landing the two in the traffic jam caused by rising floodwaters and abandoned cars. Just when the two thought their luck couldn’t get worse, a wave washed over Justin’s car, flooding the engine and sending rainwater through the air vents (通气孔). Suddenly, the water was up to their laps and rising. It was time to move. Justin grabbed her door handle and rapidly opened Jessica’s door and shoved her out of the car. Battling rushing water, the two made it to the steps of a nearby train station. They spent the next few hours helping others to safety inside the station until Amtrak sent a train to carry the stranded (滞留人员) to higher ground. Shivering in wet clothes, sharing a tiny sandwich and a beer, Justin and Jessica’s connection crackled. “I’m one of those people who needs a sign, and I thought, if God isn’t giving me a sign right now, I’m a fool,” says Jessica. “And I knew: This is the man I’m going to spend the rest of my life with.” If Justin hadn’t made a wrong turn, the two likely would have skirted the flood and may never have spoken again. Instead, four years later, Justin and Jessica were engaged. “I lost a car but gained a fiancee,” says Justin. 4. Why did Jessica accept Justin’s offer of a ride initially? A. She was deeply attracted to Justin. B. Justin insisted despite her refusal. C. She had no other way to escape the heavy rain. D. They were classmates working on a project together. 5. What directly caused Justin to abandon the car? A. A collision with another vehicle. B. The water rising to a critical level. C. Engine failure due to a wave flooding it. D. the car running out of gas in the traffic jam. 6. What does the phrase “their connection crackled” in paragraph 3 imply about Justin and Jessica? A. They argued fiercely during the crisis. B. They discovered they had mutual friends. C. They began to develop romantic feelings. D. Their communication was interrupted by the storm. 7. What is the theme conveyed by the story of Justin and Jessica? A. Courage in emergencies lays the foundation for mutual trust. B. Life’s crucial moments may arise from unpredictable events. C. Shared hardship deepens emotional bonds between strangers. D. Natural disasters force individuals to face up to their weakness. 【答案】4. C 5. B 6. C 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，通过讲述Justin和Jessica在一次洪水中的经历，描述了他们如何相遇、共同面对困境，并最终发展出深厚感情的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段的“But it was raining buckets, so she accepted. (但是雨下得很大，所以她接受了。)”可知，Jessica接受Justin搭车提议的原因是因为雨下得很大，她没有其他方式可以避雨。故选C。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段的“Suddenly, the water was up to their laps and rising. It was time to move. (突然，水涨到了他们的大腿，而且还在上升。是时候离开了。)”可知，当水涨到他们大腿并继续上升时，Justin意识到必须弃车逃生。因此，是水的上涨直接导致了Justin弃车。故选B。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段的“Shivering in wet clothes, sharing a tiny sandwich and a beer, Justin and Jessica’s connection crackled. (他们穿着湿衣服瑟瑟发抖，分享着一个小三明治和一瓶啤酒，Justin和Jessica的……)”可知，此句描述了他们在经历共同困境后的状态，从陌生到分享食物和饮料，可知他们的相处方式有所变化，所以“their connection crackled”暗指他们开始产生浪漫的感情。故选C。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段的“If Justin hadn’t made a wrong turn, the two likely would have skirted the flood and may never have spoken again. Instead, four years later, Justin and Jessica were engaged. (如果Justin没有走错路，他们俩很可能就避开了洪水，也许再也不会说话了。相反，四年后，Justin和Jessica订婚了。)”及全文内容可知，文章描述的是一个意外的错误（走错路）导致了他们相遇并最终订婚，这传达了生活中的关键时刻可能源于不可预测的事件的主题。故选B。 C Cultural globalization helps businesses enter new markets. In order to profit from greater sales, however, it’s increasingly important for companies to be sensitive to the needs and feelings of consumers in different cultures. This isn’t always an easy thing. Brand and product names are a particular challenge that companies face when selling in the global market place. Generally, companies can follow simple guidelines when developing brand names that work across cultures. It’s important to choose a name that’s easy to read and pronounce in all of their target markets. Equally important is to make sure that the name doesn’t sound like a word with a negative meaning in the languages spoken in those markets. The name Kodak, for example, was chosen because it was easy to say and had no negative meanings. In contrast, although the Japanese sports drink Pocari Sweat is easy to say in English, its meaning is somewhat negative to people from English-speaking cultures. Besides following the commonsense guidelines, some companies use a strategy called “foreign branding.” The basic idea is to choose a name that sounds like it comes from a culture that customers feel positive about. For example, the British retail chain Currys sold products under the Matsui brand because that name sounded Japanese, and shoppers had a high opinion of electronic goods from Japan. Foreign branding doesn’t always work out. For instance, an American businesswoman created a fashion brand called Kimono. However, just six days later she announced an alternative name: Skims. Why? A kimono-her original choice — is a traditional item of Japanese clothing. People all criticized her for cultural appropriation: that is, for trying to profit from something important to another culture. A mayor from Japan even wrote to her to explain that kimonos are not a fashion symbol but are a symbol of the “beauty, spirit, and values of the Japanese” people. Cultural globalization is likely to become an even more important phenomenon. Thus, choosing culturally appropriate and globally appealing names is also likely to become more important. 8. Which of the following is a guideline for culturally appropriate brand names? A. Simplicity in meaning and tone. B. Easy pronunciation across all languages. C. Reflecting the company’s home culture. D. Absence of negative meanings in target languages. 9. What does the term “foreign branding” in paragraph 3 refer to? A. Cooperating with international companies. B. Selling products mainly in foreign markets. C. Using names from culturally admired regions. D. Translating brand names into foreign languages. 10. Why was the brand name “Kimono” changed? A. It lacked universal fashion appeal. B. It was targeted at the wrong consumers. C. It had negative meanings in some languages. D. It offended cultural values of the source country. 11. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text? A. The Rise and Risks of Foreign Branding. B. Challenges in Cross-Cultural Brand Naming. C. Cultural Appropriation in Modern Business. D. The Impact of Cultural Globalization on Trade. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章围绕文化全球化下企业品牌命名展开论述，提出观点并通过例子论证，并总结文化适宜的品牌命名的重要性。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“It’s important to choose a name that’s easy to read and pronounce in all of their target markets. Equally important is to make sure that the name doesn’t sound like a word with a negative meaning in the languages spoken in those markets.(首先，选择一个在所有目标市场都易于阅读和发音的名称至关重要。同样重要的是，确保该名称在目标市场的语言中不会与任何负面含义的词汇发音相近。)”可知，跨文化品牌命名的两个核心准则是：易于发音和避免在目标语言中有负面含义。选项D“Absence of negative meanings in target languages.(在目标语言中无负面含义)”是文化上合适的品牌名称的指导方针。故选D。 【9题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线词组“Besides following the commonsense guidelines, some companies use a strategy called “foreign branding.” The basic idea is to choose a name that sounds like it comes from a culture that customers feel positive about.(除了遵循这些常识性准则，一些公司会采用“外国品牌策略”。其核心思路是选择一个听起来源自某种文化的名称，而这种文化能让消费者产生积极联想。)”可知，“foreign branding”的核心是选择一个听起来源自“让消费者产生积极联想的文化”的名称。选项C“Using names from culturally admired regions.(使用来自文化上受推崇地区的名称)”与“选择听起来源自消费者正面评价的文化的名称”相符。故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“For instance, an American businesswoman created a fashion brand called Kimono. However, just six days later she announced an alternative name: Skims. Why? A kimono-her original choice — is a traditional item of Japanese clothing. People all criticized her for cultural appropriation: that is, for trying to profit from something important to another culture. A mayor from Japan even wrote to her to explain that kimonos are not a fashion symbol but are a symbol of the “beauty, spirit, and values of the Japanese” people.(例如，一位美国女商人创立了一个名为“Kimono”的时尚品牌，但六天后她就宣布改用新名称“Skims”。原因何在？她最初选择的“Kimono”是日本传统服饰，人们批评她挪用文化——即试图从属于其他文化的重要事物中获利。一位日本市长甚至写信给她解释，和服不是时尚符号，而是日本人“美丽、精神和价值观”的象征。)”可知，“Kimono”被更换的直接原因是该名称被指责为“文化挪用”，冒犯了日本文化中和服的象征意义和价值观。故选D。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知，文章围绕文化全球化背景下企业品牌命名的挑战展开论述，首先提出文化全球化对企业进入新市场的影响，接着讨论企业在品牌命名时需要遵循的跨文化原则，包括名称的易读性、易发音性以及避免负面含义等，并通过具体例子加以说明。然后，文章介绍了“外国品牌化”策略，并通过Currys的例子展示了该策略的应用。接着，文章也指出了外国品牌化策略可能存在的问题，通过Kimono的例子说明了文化挪用的问题。最后，文章总结了文化全球化趋势下，选择文化适宜且具有全球吸引力的品牌名称的重要性。选项B“Challenges in Cross-Cultural Brand Naming(跨文化品牌命名的挑战)”精准概括全文核心——企业在不同文化中制定品牌名称时需应对的难题，全面且贴合文意。故选B。 D Though you don’t worry that artificial intelligence (AI) will destroy the human race, you might worry that its fearsome appetite for electricity will destroy the environment. Asking ChatGPT a question means using ten times more energy than an old-fashioned search query. Google’s greenhouse-gas emissions rose by nearly half between 2019 and 2023, as the Al boom took off. With huge investments in new data centres, more rises seem baked in. But such concerns are misplaced. In absolute terms, AI may be less energy-hungry than people assume. Better still, AI can help de-carbonise the industries that have proved hardest to clean up. Consider AI’s appetite for energy first. The International Energy Agency expects that electricity consumption by data centres could triple in the next five years. Even if energy usage soars, though, the base is still low. Data centres today account for about 1.5% of the world’s electricity consumption — and the vast majority of that is due to streaming, social media and online shopping, not AI. Moreover, some of AI’s electricity use will help green the economy. AI excels at identifying complex patterns, processing giant data sets and optimising systems, all of which can help cut emissions. AI is already helping improve the efficiency of electrical grids (网格), cut fuel use in shipping and spot otherwise invisible leaks of methane, a greenhouse gas. The task is to maximise such benefits while minimising the climate impacts. The most elegant solution would be for governments to impose (强加) a proper price on carbon and leave the market to do its work. But because a global carbon price remains a distant dream, it is more realistic to focus on other measures. The first is to require AI developers to report their energy use in detail. Second, modernizing data centres to shift workloads between different data centres at different times could reduce pressure and help balance energy grids. Third, tech firms should keep their own environmental promises and apply their market power to fund clean energy projects. Doubling down on such approaches would help transform AI from climate suspect to climate hero. 12. What does the underlined phrase “baked in” in paragraph 1 most likely mean? A. Impossible to avoid. B. Reasonable to adjust. C. Carefully calculated. D. Gradually decreasing. 13. What do we know about energy consumption from paragraph 2? A. AI’s absolute energy demand is relatively low. B. AI uses less energy than traditional industries. C. Data centres are becoming more energy-efficient. D. Data centres are to blame for the rise of energy use. 14. How does AI contribute to reducing emissions? A. By replacing fuel consumption with electricity. B. By detecting and removing greenhouse gas leaks. C. By improving systems and analyzing various data. D. By reducing the need for online streaming and shopping. 15. What does the author suggest as a practical solution to managing AI’s climate impact? A. Imposing a global carbon price. B. Developing more flexible data centres. C. Focusing on advanced market strategies. D. Reducing requirements for AI developers. 【答案】12. A 13. A 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了虽然人工智能（AI）的发展引发了对其能源消耗和环境影响的担忧，但这种担忧可能被夸大了。AI在优化系统、处理数据和识别排放方面具有巨大潜力，可以帮助减少温室气体排放。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章画线短语前的内容“Google’s greenhouse-gas emissions rose by nearly half between 2019 and 2023, as the Al boom took off. (随着人工智能热潮的兴起，2019年至2023年间，Google的温室气体排放量增加了近一半。)”可知，画线短语前文提到随着AI的兴起，Google的温室气体的排放量增加了近一半，前文举例证明，人工智能的兴起会导致温室气体的排放量增加，故此处画线短语与A项“Impossible to avoid(不可能避免的)”意思相近，意为“随着对新数据中心的投资，更多的排放量似乎是不可避免的”，故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Even if energy usage soars, though, the base is still low. Data centres today account for about 1.5% of the world’s electricity consumption — and the vast majority of that is due to streaming, social media and online shopping, not AI.(即使能源使用量激增，其基数仍然很低。如今数据中心约占全球电力消耗的1.5%，其中绝大多数是由于流媒体、社交媒体和在线购物，而非人工智能。)”可知，人工智能的绝对能源需求相对较低，故选A。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“AI excels at identifying complex patterns, processing giant data sets and optimising systems, all of which can help cut emissions.(人工智能擅长识别复杂模式、处理大型数据集和优化系统，所有这些都有助于减少排放。)”可知，人工智能通过优化系统、识别复杂模式、处理大型数据集来减少排放，因此是通过改进系统和分析各种数据，故选C。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Second, modernizing data centres to shift workloads between different data centres at different times could reduce pressure and help balance energy grids.(其次，通过现代化数据中心，在不同时间将工作负载转移到不同的数据中心，可以减轻压力并帮助平衡电网。)”可知，作者在最后一段提出了实际解决方案，将数据中心现代化，在不同的时间将工作负载转移到不同的数据中心，即开发更灵活的数据中心，故选B。 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。 The Path To Empowerment: Strategies To Overcome Self-Doubt There are some people out there that mistake self-doubt for something else. Self-doubt is when you are unsure about one or more aspects of yourself. ____16____ It limits potential and kills your confidence levels. Here are some strategies that you can use to overcome self-doubt. Never Compare Yourself With Others Comparing yourself is an unhealthy act and it falls under self-sabotage. Why would you compare yourself with a family member, a friend, or even your colleague when each of your lives is different? You should focus on yourself and only your achievements. ____17____ Reflect Back To Your Past Achievements ____18____ Self-reflection is one of the best tools to remove self-doubt. It makes you remember that you once achieved something great, and it makes you believe that you can achieve that level of success again through concentrated efforts. Never live in the past but learn to strive in the present! Always Be In The Company Of Supportive People “You are known by the company you keep”, is one of the best sayings to explain this strategy. We should be surrounded by people that support and love us, not people that constantly make us doubt ourselves. Being around negative people is very bad for our mental health. When you are in the company of good people, they will always encourage you to be better. ____19____ By embracing these strategies, you can gradually build confidence and overcome self-doubt. The journey to empowerment won’t be smooth, ____20____ Hang in there, give it some time and keep working at it. You can achieve your full potential. A. Self-doubt isn’t something you are born with. B. Living with self-doubt can be very damaging. C. Always cherish past memories while working for the future. D. This will allow you to fulfill your goals without any worries. E. You’ll encounter obstacles and feel disheartened along the way. F. Remember the time when you achieved something remarkable. G. They will also help you recover from negative and stressful situations. 【答案】16. B 17. D 18. F 19. G 20. E 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何克服自我怀疑。 【16题详解】 根据下文“It limits potential and kills your confidence levels.(它限制了你的潜力，扼杀了你的自信。)”可知，本句是在说明自我怀疑的危害，B选项中“damaging”对应下文中“limits potential and kills your confidence levels”。故B选项“生活在自我怀疑中是非常有害的”符合语境，故选B。 【17题详解】 根据上文“You should focus on yourself and only your achievements.(你应该专注于自己，只专注于自己的成就。)”可知，上文提到要专注于自己和自己的成就，本句为本段最后一句，应承接上文说明这一做法的作用：让你毫无顾虑地实现目标。故D选项“这将让你毫无顾虑地实现目标”符合语境，故选D。 【18题详解】 根据小标题“Reflect Back To Your Past Achievements(回顾你过去的成就。)”以及下文“Self-reflection is one of the best tools to remove self-doubt. It makes you remember that you once achieved something great, and it makes you believe that you can achieve that level of success again through concentrated efforts.(自我反省是消除自我怀疑的最好工具之一。它让你记住你曾经取得过伟大的成就，它让你相信你可以通过集中精力再次取得那种程度的成功。)”可知，本段主要说明的是要回顾过去的成就，F选项中“achieved something remarkable”对应标题中“Past Achievements”。故F选项“记住你取得显著成就的时刻”符合语境，故选F。 【19题详解】 根据上文When you are in the company of good people, they will always encourage you to be better.(当你和优秀的人在一起时，他们总是鼓励你变得更好。)”可知，上文提到和优秀的人在一起，他们总是鼓励你变得更好，本句为本段最后一句，应承接上文说明优秀的人的其他作用：帮助你从消极和紧张的情况中恢复过来。故G选项“他们也会帮助你从消极和紧张的情况中恢复过来”符合语境，故选G。 【20题详解】 根据上文“The journey to empowerment won’t be smooth(赋予权力的旅程不会一帆风顺)”以及下文“Hang in there, give it some time and keep working at it. You can achieve your full potential.(坚持下去，给它一些时间，继续努力。你可以充分发挥你的潜力。)”可知，上文提到赋予权力的旅程不会一帆风顺，下文则提到坚持下去，可推测本句是在说明这条路上的困难。故E选项“你会遇到障碍，一路上感到沮丧”符合语境，故选E。 第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分30分) 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Tom Perry was determined to win the rocket competition.

It was one of the most surprising and tiring games I’ve ever had. When Mike first phoned and suggested we play, I laughed quietly, figuring on an easy victory. After all, Mike’s idea of exercise has always been nothing more effort-making than lifting a fork to his mouth. As long as I can remember, Mike’s been the least physically fit member in the family, and strangely proud of himself. His big stomach has always ballooned out between his T-shirt and trousers. Although the family often joked about that, Mike refused to buy a larger T-shirt or to lose weight. So when Mike arrived for our game not only with the bottom of his shirt gathered inside his trousers but also with a stomach you could hardly notice, I was so surprised that I was speechless. My cousin must have made an effort to get himself into shape. As we walked into the dimly lit racquetball court, the smell of sweat and rubber soles filled the air. Mike, with a newfound spring in his step, pulled a smooth and shiny black racquet from his bag. “Ready to lose?” he grinned, his eyes sparkling with confidence. I snorted(哼), my usual pre-game anxiety replaced by a strange mix of curiosity and unease. The first few points were fast-paced. Mike moved with flexibility I’d never seen before, diving for shots and smashing returns that barely touched the wall. His serve — once a weak, predictable lob(高球)— was now a powerful underhand slice that caught me off guard. By the time the scoreboard flickered to 5-3 in his favor, beads of sweat were already trickling down my neck. “How?” I panted between points, watching him wipe his forehead with the back of his hand. Mike just smiled, his cheeks flushed but his breathing steady. “Started jogging every morning,” he said casually, as if transforming his build was no big deal. “And cut out the midnight snacks.” 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。 When the score was tied at 16-16, my legs were as heavy as stone. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Just as Mike leaped for a final kill to win the match, he slipped. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】When the score was tied at 16-16, my legs were as heavy as stone. Every breath burned my lungs, and my arms trembled with exhaustion. Yet Mike kept charging forward, his movements sharp and relentless. He sprang for a low shot, his racquet barely grazing the ball, but somehow it bounced off the front wall at an impossible angle, I stumbled, my muscles screaming, and missed the return. The score tipped to 16-17 — Ed needed just one more point to win. My chest tightened; one mistake now, and everything I’d fought for would slip away. Just as Mike leaped for a final kill to win the match, he slipped. His foot caught on the edge of the court, sending him crashing onto the floor. The ball rolled away, and with a desperate tap, I sent it back, scoring the tying point. Out of breath, Mike sat up, clutching his elbow, but then laughed. “Guess I got too excited,” he admitted, shaking his head. We finished the match with a clumsy rally, and 1 managed a narrow 19-17 victory. But as we shook hands, 1 saw no bitterness in Mike’s eyes — just pride. I realized how much effort he had put into this game and into changing himself. In a way, I think we both won: I the game, but Mike my respect. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者与堂兄Mike之间的一场美式壁球比赛的经历，生动地展现了比赛的紧张氛围和作者的感受。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“当比分战成16-16平时，我的腿像灌了铅一样沉重。”以及第二段首句内容“就在Mike跃起准备最后一击以赢得比赛时，他滑倒了。”可知，第一段可描写作者已经非常疲倦，但是看到Mike的努力，作者还是非常紧张。 ②由第二段首句内容“就在Mike跃起准备最后一击以赢得比赛时，他滑倒了。”可知，第二段可描写Mike的失误让他输掉了比赛，然而作者却对Mike充满了尊重。 2.续写线索：当比分战平的时候，作者已经非常疲倦了——然而Mike却仍然在向前冲锋，动作很犀利——作者踉跄了一下，Mike没能接住球，比分变成了16-17——作者变得紧张起来——然而，就在此时，Mike的脚卡在了球场边缘，摔倒了——而作者也趁机扳平了比分——最后，作者以微弱的优势赢得了比赛，然而Mike的表现却赢得了作者的尊重 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①颤抖：tremble/ shake ②为……而努力：fight for/strive for ③明白：realize/ come to know 情绪类 ①兴奋的：excited/ thrilled ②悲痛：bitterness/ sadness 【点睛】【高分句型1】My chest tightened; one mistake now, and everything I’d fought for would slip away.（运用了省略关系代词that的定语从句） 【高分句型2】But as we shook hands, 1 saw no bitterness in Mike’s eyes — just pride.（运用了as引导的状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 重庆市巴蜀中学教育集团高2026届高二(下)期中考试 英语试卷 注意事项: 1. 答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号、班级、学校在答题卡上填写清楚。 2. 每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑，如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。在试卷上作答无效。 3.考试结束后，请将答题卡交回，试卷自行保存。满分150分，考试用时120分钟。 第一部分听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

Unless you’re Justin and Jessica Walker. It was August 2004. Jessica, then a Virginia Commonwealth University student, was waiting outside the campus gym, her ride home nowhere to be seen. Justin walked out and offered a ride and shelter from the increasing downpour. She recognized him from orientation (迎新会) a few days before — they’d just chatted briefly there. “I was like, OK, maybe he’s hitting on me,” Jessica later told WTVR. But it was raining buckets, so she accepted. Buckets turned to barrels as Justin, new to Richmond, made a wrong turn onto Main Street, landing the two in the traffic jam caused by rising floodwaters and abandoned cars. Just when the two thought their luck couldn’t get worse, a wave washed over Justin’s car, flooding the engine and sending rainwater through the air vents (通气孔). Suddenly, the water was up to their laps and rising. It was time to move. Justin grabbed her door handle and rapidly opened Jessica’s door and shoved her out of the car. Battling rushing water, the two made it to the steps of a nearby train station. They spent the next few hours helping others to safety inside the station until Amtrak sent a train to carry the stranded (滞留人员) to higher ground. Shivering in wet clothes, sharing a tiny sandwich and a beer, Justin and Jessica’s connection crackled. “I’m one of those people who needs a sign, and I thought, if God isn’t giving me a sign right now, I’m a fool,” says Jessica. “And I knew: This is the man I’m going to spend the rest of my life with.” If Justin hadn’t made a wrong turn, the two likely would have skirted the flood and may never have spoken again. Instead, four years later, Justin and Jessica were engaged. “I lost a car but gained a fiancee,” says Justin. 4. Why did Jessica accept Justin’s offer of a ride initially? A. She was deeply attracted to Justin. B. Justin insisted despite her refusal. C. She had no other way to escape the heavy rain. D. They were classmates working on a project together. 5 What directly caused Justin to abandon the car? A. A collision with another vehicle. B. The water rising to a critical level. C. Engine failure due to a wave flooding it. D. the car running out of gas in the traffic jam. 6. What does the phrase “their connection crackled” in paragraph 3 imply about Justin and Jessica? A. They argued fiercely during the crisis. B. They discovered they had mutual friends. C. They began to develop romantic feelings. D. Their communication was interrupted by the storm. 7. What is the theme conveyed by the story of Justin and Jessica? A. Courage in emergencies lays the foundation for mutual trust. B. Life’s crucial moments may arise from unpredictable events. C Shared hardship deepens emotional bonds between strangers. D. Natural disasters force individuals to face up to their weakness. C Cultural globalization helps businesses enter new markets. In order to profit from greater sales, however, it’s increasingly important for companies to be sensitive to the needs and feelings of consumers in different cultures. This isn’t always an easy thing. Brand and product names are a particular challenge that companies face when selling in the global market place. Generally, companies can follow simple guidelines when developing brand names that work across cultures. It’s important to choose a name that’s easy to read and pronounce in all of their target markets. Equally important is to make sure that the name doesn’t sound like a word with a negative meaning in the languages spoken in those markets. The name Kodak, for example, was chosen because it was easy to say and had no negative meanings. In contrast, although the Japanese sports drink Pocari Sweat is easy to say in English, its meaning is somewhat negative to people from English-speaking cultures. Besides following the commonsense guidelines, some companies use a strategy called “foreign branding.” The basic idea is to choose a name that sounds like it comes from a culture that customers feel positive about. For example, the British retail chain Currys sold products under the Matsui brand because that name sounded Japanese, and shoppers had a high opinion of electronic goods from Japan. Foreign branding doesn’t always work out. For instance, an American businesswoman created a fashion brand called Kimono. However, just six days later she announced an alternative name: Skims. Why? A kimono-her original choice — is a traditional item of Japanese clothing. People all criticized her for cultural appropriation: that is, for trying to profit from something important to another culture. A mayor from Japan even wrote to her to explain that kimonos are not a fashion symbol but are a symbol of the “beauty, spirit, and values of the Japanese” people. Cultural globalization is likely to become an even more important phenomenon. Thus, choosing culturally appropriate and globally appealing names is also likely to become more important. 8. Which of the following is a guideline for culturally appropriate brand names? A. Simplicity in meaning and tone. B. Easy pronunciation across all languages. C. Reflecting the company’s home culture. D. Absence of negative meanings in target languages. 9. What does the term “foreign branding” in paragraph 3 refer to? A. Cooperating with international companies. B Selling products mainly in foreign markets. C. Using names from culturally admired regions. D. Translating brand names into foreign languages. 10. Why was the brand name “Kimono” changed? A. It lacked universal fashion appeal. B. It was targeted at the wrong consumers. C. It had negative meanings in some languages. D. It offended cultural values of the source country. 11. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text? A. The Rise and Risks of Foreign Branding. B. Challenges in Cross-Cultural Brand Naming. C. Cultural Appropriation in Modern Business. D. The Impact of Cultural Globalization on Trade. D Though you don’t worry that artificial intelligence (AI) will destroy the human race, you might worry that its fearsome appetite for electricity will destroy the environment. Asking ChatGPT a question means using ten times more energy than an old-fashioned search query. Google’s greenhouse-gas emissions rose by nearly half between 2019 and 2023, as the Al boom took off. With huge investments in new data centres, more rises seem baked in. But such concerns are misplaced. In absolute terms, AI may be less energy-hungry than people assume. Better still, AI can help de-carbonise the industries that have proved hardest to clean up. Consider AI’s appetite for energy first. The International Energy Agency expects that electricity consumption by data centres could triple in the next five years. Even if energy usage soars, though, the base is still low. Data centres today account for about 1.5% of the world’s electricity consumption — and the vast majority of that is due to streaming, social media and online shopping, not AI. Moreover, some of AI’s electricity use will help green the economy. AI excels at identifying complex patterns, processing giant data sets and optimising systems, all of which can help cut emissions. AI is already helping improve the efficiency of electrical grids (网格), cut fuel use in shipping and spot otherwise invisible leaks of methane, a greenhouse gas. The task is to maximise such benefits while minimising the climate impacts. The most elegant solution would be for governments to impose (强加) a proper price on carbon and leave the market to do its work. But because a global carbon price remains a distant dream, it is more realistic to focus on other measures. The first is to require AI developers to report their energy use in detail. Second, modernizing data centres to shift workloads between different data centres at different times could reduce pressure and help balance energy grids. Third, tech firms should keep their own environmental promises and apply their market power to fund clean energy projects. Doubling down on such approaches would help transform AI from climate suspect to climate hero. 12. What does the underlined phrase “baked in” in paragraph 1 most likely mean? A. Impossible to avoid. B. Reasonable to adjust. C. Carefully calculated. D. Gradually decreasing. 13. What do we know about energy consumption from paragraph 2? A. AI’s absolute energy demand is relatively low. B. AI uses less energy than traditional industries. C. Data centres are becoming more energy-efficient. D. Data centres are to blame for the rise of energy use. 14. How does AI contribute to reducing emissions? A. By replacing fuel consumption with electricity. B. By detecting and removing greenhouse gas leaks. C. By improving systems and analyzing various data. D. By reducing the need for online streaming and shopping. 15. What does the author suggest as a practical solution to managing AI’s climate impact? A. Imposing a global carbon price. B. Developing more flexible data centres. C. Focusing on advanced market strategies. D. Reducing requirements for AI developers. 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。 The Path To Empowerment: Strategies To Overcome Self-Doubt There are some people out there that mistake self-doubt for something else.

It was one of the most surprising and tiring games I’ve ever had. When Mike first phoned and suggested we play, I laughed quietly, figuring on an easy victory. After all, Mike’s idea of exercise has always been nothing more effort-making than lifting a fork to his mouth. As long as I can remember, Mike’s been the least physically fit member in the family, and strangely proud of himself. His big stomach has always ballooned out between his T-shirt and trousers. Although the family often joked about that, Mike refused to buy a larger T-shirt or to lose weight. So when Mike arrived for our game not only with the bottom of his shirt gathered inside his trousers but also with a stomach you could hardly notice, I was so surprised that I was speechless. My cousin must have made an effort to get himself into shape. As we walked into the dimly lit racquetball court, the smell of sweat and rubber soles filled the air. Mike, with a newfound spring in his step, pulled a smooth and shiny black racquet from his bag. “Ready to lose?” he grinned, his eyes sparkling with confidence. I snorted(哼), my usual pre-game anxiety replaced by a strange mix of curiosity and unease. The first few points were fast-paced. Mike moved with flexibility I’d never seen before, diving for shots and smashing returns that barely touched the wall. His serve — once a weak, predictable lob(高球)— was now a powerful underhand slice that caught me off guard. By the time the scoreboard flickered to 5-3 in his favor, beads of sweat were already trickling down my neck. “How?” I panted between points, watching him wipe his forehead with the back of his hand. Mike just smiled, his cheeks flushed but his breathing steady. “Started jogging every morning,” he said casually, as if transforming his build was no big deal. “And cut out the midnight snacks.” 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。 When the score was tied at 16-16, my legs were as heavy as stone. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Just as Mike leaped for a final kill to win the match, he slipped. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
