①Climate change is happening. It is having a strong effect on areas of the world.
②Other than causing terrible storms in some places or periods of no rain for months at a time in other places, climate change has influenced the temperature of the sea near land. When the temperature of the sea changes, this influences sea animals. People who make their living in some way from the sea will have a hard time as the sea animals begin to die off. On top of this, higher temperatures are causing ice mountains to melt, which is causing sea levels around the world to rise.
③Rising sea levels are a big problem. As areas of land beside the sea go under the water, the animals that used to live in these areas are forced to find new homes. Freshwater lakes located near the seas also become filled with salt water. In addition to these lakes, certain lands that are normally wet but still above sea level become flooded. These lands are necessary for the environment because they can help take out some kinds of poisons (毒物) from water. They can also slow down or stop flooding of dry land above them. Because of the rising sea levels, some places that did not experience floods before, like farms far from the sea, now get flooded.
④Rising sea levels also have a big effect on how people live. For example, when the sea level rises and the salt water moves higher up on the land, it can go into the ground and get into areas where people get the fresh water they drink. Water from the sea is bad for cars, trucks, and boats. Bridges and roads can also be hurt by water from the sea. The walls people build to keep water out of cities and towns are in trouble, too.
8. How does the rising temperature influence sea animals?
A. It makes them disappear. B. It makes them change their colors
C. It makes them change their shapes D. It makes them find their new homes.
9. What can help keep the water clean according to the text?
A. Salt. B. Wet lands. C. Sea animals. D. Farms far from the sea.
10. What does the underlined word “it” refer to in Paragraph 4?
A. The rain. B. The sea level. C. The salt water. D. The fresh water.
11. What is the structure of the text? (P=Paragraph)
A. B. C. D.
D
We know that AI is not a real human. However, it seems many of us can’t help treating it like one. In a survey of 2000 people in the US. 48 percent believed we should have good manners when talking to AI, said The New York Post.
Scientists at the Imperial College London in the UK have made a similar discovery recently. They found that humans tend (往往会) to treat AI as human beings, showing sympathy (同情) toward them and even protecting them, Science Daily reported.
In their experiment, the scientists invited 244 volunteers to play an online ball game with an AI bot. A make-believe volunteer also took part, and sometimes left out the AI on purpose by passing the ball only to human players. As the scientists watched the game, they discovered that most of the time the volunteers tried to fix the unfairness (不公平) toward the bot by giving it the ball more often.
The finding is in line with the ideas of Media Equation Theory, the scientists said in their papers. Developed in the 1990s by scientists at Stanford University in the US, the theory suggests we often reply to media and technology like we do to real people and places, rather than just seeing them as tools.
An example is Replika, an AI chatbot created in 2017. It has about 2 million users worldwide. “Your Replika will always be your side no matter what you are up to,” reads its official website. But the AI’s support turned dangerous when it encouraged Jaswant Singh Chail, a young man in the UK, to carry out his plan to kill the Queen of England. Chail tried to do so in December 2021, but he was stopped in time. However, he was still put in prison.
Companies should avoid making AI too human-like in their design, advised the scientists at Imperial College London. This can help people tell the difference between virtual and real communication.
12. Which of the following is TRUE based on Media Equation Theory?
A. Humans always treat AI as tools. B. Humans often reply to AI as to real people.
C. Humans should make AI less human-like. D. Humans tried to fix unfairness in the game.
13. What does the author want to tell us by mentioning “Replika” in the article?
A. AI has educational advantages. B. AI can influence humans in some ways.
C. AI is designed for some purposes. D. AI can’t be used in social communication.
14. What can be inferred (推断) from the article?
A. AI always has bad influence on humans.
B. Nearly half people in the US treat AI politely.
C. Treating AI more carefully is a must for humans.
D. Companies won’t make AI as friends any more.
15. The following sentence can best be put at the end of ________.
While this could make humans and AI work better as a team, it also has risks, especially when AI bots are designed to act like “friends” to people.
A. Paragraph 2 B. Paragraph 3 C. Paragraph 4 D. Paragraph 5
第二节 任务型阅读(共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读下面材料,从文后所给的A—E五个选项中选出正确选项 (其中一项是多余选项),并回答第5小题。
Every country and family across the world has their own special customs for celebrating special days such as birthdays. Maybe your family visit a favorite restaurant each birthday, or wake up to a big breakfast of pancakes. 1 Let’s take a look at some cool birthday traditions from around the world.
Pull ears in Spain
As well as cakes, singing, and presents, birthdays in Spain come with a fun custom: ear pulling. 2 The birthday person gets their earlobe (耳垂) softly pulled once for each year of their age. Though we’re not sure where this strange habit started, some believe that since ears are one part of the body that never stops growing, pulling ears may mean a longer life.

There are so many foods that are served at birthday parties in Australia. These are typically simple, sweet treats. The most popular of all is one called “fairy bread”. It’s a kind of white bread, with thick butter on it, and it is covered with sprinkles (着色珠子糖). These sprinkles are really pretty and make the bread look magical, and that’s why it’s called “fairy bread”.
Show your love through cake in Brazil
In Brazil, it’s a tradition to share the first piece of your birthday cake with the person you love the most. 4 Some families break it down even more with specific (特有的) traditions and honors special to them.
A. Enjoy fairy bread in Australia
B. Food plays an important role on birthdays
C. This might be a parent, cousin, or grandparent.
D. This tradition is known as “los tirones de oreja”
E. But have you ever wondered what people from other countries do on their birthdays?
16. ________
17 ________
18. ________
19 ________
20. What do you think of these birthday customs? Why? (Answer with no more than 20 words)

①Climate change is happening. It is having a strong effect on areas of the world.
②Other than causing terrible storms in some places or periods of no rain for months at a time in other places, climate change has influenced the temperature of the sea near land. When the temperature of the sea changes, this influences sea animals. People who make their living in some way from the sea will have a hard time as the sea animals begin to die off. On top of this, higher temperatures are causing ice mountains to melt, which is causing sea levels around the world to rise.
③Rising sea levels are a big problem. As areas of land beside the sea go under the water, the animals that used to live in these areas are forced to find new homes. Freshwater lakes located near the seas also become filled with salt water. In addition to these lakes, certain lands that are normally wet but still above sea level become flooded. These lands are necessary for the environment because they can help take out some kinds of poisons (毒物) from water. They can also slow down or stop flooding of dry land above them. Because of the rising sea levels, some places that did not experience floods before, like farms far from the sea, now get flooded.
④Rising sea levels also have a big effect on how people live. For example, when the sea level rises and the salt water moves higher up on the land, it can go into the ground and get into areas where people get the fresh water they drink. Water from the sea is bad for cars, trucks, and boats. Bridges and roads can also be hurt by water from the sea. The walls people build to keep water out of cities and towns are in trouble, too.
8. How does the rising temperature influence sea animals?
A. It makes them disappear. B. It makes them change their colors
C. It makes them change their shapes D. It makes them find their new homes.
9. What can help keep the water clean according to the text?
A. Salt. B. Wet lands. C. Sea animals. D. Farms far from the sea.
10. What does the underlined word “it” refer to in Paragraph 4?
A. The rain. B. The sea level. C. The salt water. D. The fresh water.
11. What is the structure of the text? (P=Paragraph)
A. B. C. D.
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. C 11. A

【导语】本文主要介绍了气候变化导致了海平面的上升,从而对人类和动物的生存环境造成了影响。

We know that AI is not a real human. However, it seems many of us can’t help treating it like one. In a survey of 2000 people in the US. 48 percent believed we should have good manners when talking to AI, said The New York Post.
Scientists at the Imperial College London in the UK have made a similar discovery recently. They found that humans tend (往往会) to treat AI as human beings, showing sympathy (同情) toward them and even protecting them, Science Daily reported.
In their experiment, the scientists invited 244 volunteers to play an online ball game with an AI bot. A make-believe volunteer also took part, and sometimes left out the AI on purpose by passing the ball only to human players. As the scientists watched the game, they discovered that most of the time the volunteers tried to fix the unfairness (不公平) toward the bot by giving it the ball more often.
The finding is in line with the ideas of Media Equation Theory, the scientists said in their papers. Developed in the 1990s by scientists at Stanford University in the US, the theory suggests we often reply to media and technology like we do to real people and places, rather than just seeing them as tools.
An example is Replika, an AI chatbot created in 2017. It has about 2 million users worldwide. “Your Replika will always be your side no matter what you are up to,” reads its official website. But the AI’s support turned dangerous when it encouraged Jaswant Singh Chail, a young man in the UK, to carry out his plan to kill the Queen of England. Chail tried to do so in December 2021, but he was stopped in time. However, he was still put in prison.
Companies should avoid making AI too human-like in their design, advised the scientists at Imperial College London. This can help people tell the difference between virtual and real communication.
12. Which of the following is TRUE based on Media Equation Theory?
A. Humans always treat AI as tools. B. Humans often reply to AI as to real people.
C. Humans should make AI less human-like. D. Humans tried to fix unfairness in the game.
13. What does the author want to tell us by mentioning “Replika” in the article?
A. AI has educational advantages. B. AI can influence humans in some ways.
C. AI is designed for some purposes. D. AI can’t be used in social communication.
14. What can be inferred (推断) from the article?
A. AI always has bad influence on humans.
B. Nearly half people in the US treat AI politely.
C Treating AI more carefully is a must for humans.
D. Companies won’t make AI as friends any more.
15. The following sentence can best be put at the end of ________.
While this could make humans and AI work better as a team, it also has risks, especially when AI bots are designed to act like “friends” to people.
A. Paragraph 2 B. Paragraph 3 C. Paragraph 4 D. Paragraph 5
【答案】12. B 13. B 14. C 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲了人们会像对待真人一样对待AI,并且通过一个实验来证明了这一点,并且介绍了AI的优点,同时也存在一些风险。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据“the theory suggests we often reply to media and technology like we do to real people and places, rather than just seeing them as tools.”可知,人们常以对待真实人类的方式回应媒体和技术,而非仅视为工具。故选B。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据“An example is Replika, an AI chatbot…But the AI’s support turned dangerous when it encouraged Jaswant Singh Chail, a young man in the UK, to carry out his plan to kill the Queen of England.”可知,Replika的例子说明AI的支持导致用户犯罪,说明AI可能对人类行为产生负面影响。故选B。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据“This can help people tell the difference between virtual and real communication.”可知,人们应该更仔细认真地对待AI。故选C。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。题干句子强调“AI被设计为朋友”的风险,与第四段“该理论由美国斯坦福大学的科学家于20世纪90年代提出,认为我们对待媒体和技术的态度,往往就像对待真实的人和地方一样,而不仅仅是将其视为工具。”逻辑衔接紧密,故应置于第四段段尾。故选C。

Pull ears in Spain
As well as cakes, singing, and presents, birthdays in Spain come with a fun custom: ear pulling. 2 The birthday person gets their earlobe (耳垂) softly pulled once for each year of their age.
