A social media comment. B. A travel brochure. C. A historical book. D. An academic paper B The Maryland Center for History and Culture (MCHC) is currently hosting “The Jim Henson Exhibition: Imagination Unlimited”. The exhibition spotlights Henson’s unique contributions to children’s education, including his creation of the Muppets (布偶). Born in 1936 in Mississippi, Henson grew up in Maryland. His creative talents were evident when he was a student at high school. He loved cartooning and creating sets for school theater productions. While a freshman at university, Henson made puppets for a local TV station. The station’s producers were so impressed that they asked him to produce his own puppet show. Called Sam and Friends, the program started in 1955. Viewers loved Henson’s playful characters, including an early version of Kermit the Frog. While at university, Henson majored in home economics. At the time, it was the only major that offered classes in sewing and textiles (纺织品). Henson not only honed his creative skills at university, but he was also good at marketing and business. “He was an entrepreneur who happened to get into puppetry,” said Deborah Wood, MCHC’s learning manager. In 1959, Henson married Jane Nebel, whom he had met at university. The couple established Muppets Inc. which later became the Jim Henson Company. It was there that Focus Bert, Ernie, Miss Piggy, and other Muppets were created for Sesame Street, a popular children’s television program. Generations of children around the world have grown up watching and laming from the Muppets. Henson, who died in 1990, created not just the Muppets, but also films, TV commercials, variety shows, and more. The exhibition shows every aspect of his career. This includes some lesser-known works, including The Cube, a short experimental film that was nominated (提名) for an Academy Award. Visitors also get a chance to appreciate Henson’s creative process and inventiveness through hands-on displays. They can even make their own Muppets. “For me, I think the really powerful message of this exhibition is the fact that it covers Henson’s whole life and his whole career,” said Chloe Green, public programs manager at the MCHC. 4. What’s paragraph 2 mainly about? A. An interesting exhibition about Henson. B. Viewers’ attitude to Henson’s works. C. Henson’s exceptional talents in creation. D. Characters in Henson’s famous works. 5. What does the underlined word “honed” mean in paragraph 3? A. Improved. B. Changed. C. Found. D. Shared. 6. What can be learned about the exhibition? A. A less well-known experimental film made by Henson is on exhibition. B. The aim of the exhibition is to commemorate an educator. C. The exhibits are composed of every aspect of Henson’s life. D. Opinions vary on this exhibition. 7. What words can best describe Henson? A. Creative and courageous. B. Talented and productive. C. Humorous and passionate. D. Courageous and intelligent. C Most of us don’t eat as much fruit and vegetables as we know we should but that goal might now be a bit more achievable. Scientists in Spain have engineered a new “Golden Lettuce” with 30 times more nutrients than the regular green stuff. Lettuce isn’t the most exciting vegetable, but you’ll often find it in sandwiches, wraps, stews and other meals as a way to cram in extra nutrients. But maybe there’s a way to get more health benefits out of less lettuce. A team from the Research Institute for Plant Molecular and Cellular Biology（IBMCP）has now genetically engineered the humble lettuce to boost its nutrients. Specifically, they increased the levels of an antioxidant (抗氧化剂) called beta-carotene, which your body uses to make vitamin A. This is important for healthy vision, immune (免疫的)function, and cell growth, and is thought to be protective against Alzheimer’ s, heart disease and some kinds of cancer. The levels of beta-carotene in the Golden Lettuce leaves were up to 30 times higher than those of regular lettuce. Not only that, but these antioxidants were more bioaccessible too, meaning our digestive systems can absorb them more easily from our food. Higher amounts of beta-carotene gives the leaves a striking yellow color, hence the nickname Golden Lettuce. Increasing those levels wasn’t completely straightforward, however. Beta-carotene is normally produced in a plant’s chloroplasts (叶绿体), the cellular structures that perform photosynthesis (光合作用) — but if you jam too much in there, it reduces the plant’s ability to gain energy from sunlight. So, the team found a way to move the antioxidant into different parts of the plant cells. “Our work has successfully produced beta-carotene and made it build up in specific parts of cells where it is not normally found by combining biotechnological techniques and treatments with high light intensity,” said Manual Rodríguez Concepción, lead author of the study. This Golden Lettuce could soon join a genetically enhanced salad with more nutritious radishes and peas, and antioxidant-rich purple tomatoes and potatoes. 8. What does the underlined phrase “cram in” in paragraph 2 mean? A Forcefully push. B. Gradually reduce. C. Carefully measure. D. Casually ignore. 9. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. How beta-carotene is created. B. How beta-carotene is absorbed. C. Why Golden Lettuce looks yellow. D. Why Golden Lettuce is more nutritious. 10. Why did the team move beta-carotene out of chloroplasts? A. To store it better at other parts of cells. B. To make beta-carotene easier to be produced. C. To protect the plant’s solar energy harvesting. D. To increase the plant’s ability to perform photosynthesis. 11. What does the author imply in the last paragraph? A. People prefer salads with the Golden Lettuce over others. B. People will soon be able to buy the Golden Lettuce in the market. C There will be more genetically engineered vegetables in the future. D. Golden Lettuce are more nutritious than purple tomatoes and potatoes. D Last fall, I happened to overhear a student telling the others he had decided not to sign up for an introductory philosophy course. The demands of his major, he said seriously, meant he needed to take “practical” courses, and “enlightenment (启蒙)” would simply have to wait. For now, employability was the most important. The students’ conversation fits into a larger alarming narrative about the role of the humanities in higher education. In a time of technological achievement and of scientific innovation, sceptics (怀疑者) of the humanities may question the usefulness of studying Aristotle, the Italian Renaissance or Chinese fiction. Actually I regret not interrupting that student to argue for taking that introductory philosophy course. I would have started by reminding him that, for much of America’s history, college graduates were not considered truly educated unless they had mastered philosophy, literature, political theory and history. The key role of higher education was to invite students into the conversations about matters like what it means to be alive and the definition of justice. Fostering (鼓励) engagement with these subjects is still an essential part of the university’s function in society. I would have also mentioned to the student that he was misinformed about the job market. It is true that many employers are looking for graduates with specialized technical skills, but they also look for other capabilities. As the world is transformed by artificial intelligence, machine learning and automation, the unique human qualities of creativity, imagination and moral reasoning will be the ultimate coin of the realm. All these skills are developed in humanities courses. Further, I would have argued that while a degree in the sciences is an important precondition for many jobs, it is not the only route. Recent studies show that those with humanities degrees are successful in the workplace, experiencing low rates of unemployment and reporting high levels of job satisfaction. The case for the humanities can also be understood as a foundational preparation for a life well lived. A humanities education plays a vital role in encouraging citizens to lead an examined life. It fosters critical thinking, self-reflection, empathy and tolerance, the usefulness of which only becomes more apparent as one navigates (导航) life’s challenges. By all means, students should take courses they think practical and follow their interests, but if they also make a point of studying the literature of the Renaissance, or researching into modern poetry, or even taking introductory philosophy, we will all benefit. 12. What do the students’ conversation show? A. Students feel employment difficult. B. Students think philosophy less important. C. Students find scientific innovation amazing. D. Students consider university courses satisfying. 13. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Equally applied. B. Highly valued. C. Strictly assessed. D. Greatly improved. 14. The author may agree that humanities ______. A. provide great insights into life B. prepare students for graduation C. discover students’ artistic ability D. raise awareness of social celebrity 15. What can be learned from the passage? A. College education should focus on practical courses. B. Humanities are essential to both individuals and society. C. Technical skills can guarantee successful careers. D. Higher education carries people through difficult times. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 With all the new findings on the effects of bad lifestyles, it is no wonder that so many people are eager to start changing their lifestyles for the better. ___16___ Once you get into the habit of maintaining a healthy routine, you will be able to experience the benefits of a healthy lifestyle.

One day when I was sitting on the porch, he came walking by. I was about 12 years old and thought it would make me feel grown up to tease him like some adults did in the town.

I had him fooled so completely that every time he asked me a question, I would make the situation seem worse and worse. I knew he made a meager (贫困的) living doing odd jobs, so it seemed funny when he asked me if we needed anything. I told him that we didn’t know if we would have enough to eat. He replied, “You poor thing. I will pray for you. “ That night I heard the door rattle (沙沙响) softly. I thought it was the wind beating against the door. So I didn’t pay much attention to it.

Exploring its remarkably preserved ruins offers a glimpse into daily life during Roman times, making it an incredible historical destination. (被火山灰掩埋了几个世纪的庞贝古城是一个非凡的考古遗址。探索其保存完好的遗迹，可以一瞥罗马时代的日常生活，使其成为一个令人难以置信的历史目的地)”可知，游客在庞贝可以看到保存完好的城市遗址。故选B。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据The Colosseum部分中的“Rome’s most famous landmark, the Colosseum, is an ancient stadium that was once used for exciting fights and shows. (罗马最著名的地标是罗马斗兽场，这是一座古老的体育场，曾经用于激动人心的战斗和表演)”可知，罗马斗兽场的特色是进行过惊险战斗的舞台。故选D。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Italy, a country steeped in history and beauty, is home to numerous iconic landmarks that attract millions of visitors each year. Let’s start our journey to discover its most renowned attractions. (意大利是一个充满历史和美丽的国家，拥有众多标志性建筑，每年吸引数百万游客。让我们开始我们的旅程，发现最著名的景点)”可知，文章介绍了四个意大利最著名的景点。由此推知，这篇文章很可能摘自一本旅游小册子。故选B。 B The Maryland Center for History and Culture (MCHC) is currently hosting “The Jim Henson Exhibition: Imagination Unlimited”.

Called Sam and Friends, the program started in 1955. Viewers loved Henson’s playful characters, including an early version of Kermit the Frog. While at university, Henson majored in home economics. At the time, it was the only major that offered classes in sewing and textiles (纺织品). Henson not only honed his creative skills at university, but he was also good at marketing and business. “He was an entrepreneur who happened to get into puppetry,” said Deborah Wood, MCHC’s learning manager. In 1959, Henson married Jane Nebel, whom he had met at university. The couple established Muppets Inc. which later became the Jim Henson Company. It was there that Focus Bert, Ernie, Miss Piggy, and other Muppets were created for Sesame Street, a popular children’s television program. Generations of children around the world have grown up watching and laming from the Muppets. Henson, who died in 1990, created not just the Muppets, but also films, TV commercials, variety shows, and more. The exhibition shows every aspect of his career. This includes some lesser-known works, including The Cube, a short experimental film that was nominated (提名) for an Academy Award. Visitors also get a chance to appreciate Henson’s creative process and inventiveness through hands-on displays. They can even make their own Muppets. “For me, I think the really powerful message of this exhibition is the fact that it covers Henson’s whole life and his whole career,” said Chloe Green, public programs manager at the MCHC. 4. What’s paragraph 2 mainly about? A. An interesting exhibition about Henson. B. Viewers’ attitude to Henson’s works. C. Henson’s exceptional talents in creation. D.

He loved cartooning and creating sets for school theater productions. While a freshman at university, Henson made puppets for a local TV station. The station’s producers were so impressed that they asked him to produce his own puppet show.(他的创造才能在高中时就显露出来了。他喜欢画漫画，喜欢为学校的戏剧创造背景。在大一时，Henson为当地一家电视台制作木偶。电视台的制片人对他印象深刻，请他制作自己的木偶剧。)”可知，本段主要描写了Jim Henson的创作天赋，他在高中时就已经崭露头角，大一时为当地电视台制作的木偶让制片人印象深刻并邀请他制作自己的木偶节目。故选C。 【5题详解】 词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句中的“but he was also good at marketing and business”可知，Henson在大学还擅长市场营销和商业，尤其可知，这里是说他在大学里提升了创作技能。hone意为“磨练”，和improve相近。故选A。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“The exhibition shows every aspect of his career. This includes some lesser-known works, including The Cube, a short experimental film that was nominated(提名) for an Academy Award.(展览展示了他职业生涯的方方面面。其中包括一些鲜为人知的作品，包括获得奥斯卡奖提名的实验短片《魔方》。)”可知，这次展览包括他制作的一部鲜为人知的实验短片——《魔方》。故选A。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“It was there that Focus Bert, Ernie, Miss Piggy, and other Muppets were created for Sesame Street, a popular children’s television program.(正是在那里，为受欢迎的儿童电视节目《芝麻街》创作了Focus Bert、Ernie、Miss Piggy和其他布偶。)”和第五段中的“Henson, who died in 1990, created not just the Muppets, but also films, TV commercials, variety shows, and more.(Henson于1990年去世，他不仅创作了布偶，还创作了电影、电视广告、综艺节目等等。)”可知，他为《芝麻街》创作了诸多布偶角色，而且除了布偶，他还创作了电影、电视广告、综艺节目等，由此可推测出，他非常有才华，而且很高产。故选B。 C Most of us don’t eat as much fruit and vegetables as we know we should, but that goal might now be a bit more achievable. Scientists in Spain have engineered a new “Golden Lettuce” with 30 times more nutrients than the regular green stuff. Lettuce isn’t the most exciting vegetable, but you’ll often find it in sandwiches, wraps, stews and other meals as a way to cram in extra nutrients. But maybe there’s a way to get more health benefits out of less lettuce. A team from the Research Institute for Plant Molecular and Cellular Biology（IBMCP）has now genetically engineered the humble lettuce to boost its nutrients. Specifically, they increased the levels of an antioxidant (抗氧化剂) called beta-carotene, which your body uses to make vitamin A. This is important for healthy vision, immune (免疫的)function, and cell growth, and is thought to be protective against Alzheimer’ s, heart disease and some kinds of cancer. The levels of beta-carotene in the Golden Lettuce leaves were up to 30 times higher than those of regular lettuce. Not only that, but these antioxidants were more bioaccessible too, meaning our digestive systems can absorb them more easily from our food. Higher amounts of beta-carotene gives the leaves a striking yellow color, hence the nickname Golden Lettuce. Increasing those levels wasn’t completely straightforward, however. Beta-carotene is normally produced in a plant’s chloroplasts (叶绿体), the cellular structures that perform photosynthesis (光合作用) — but if you jam too much in there, it reduces the plant’s ability to gain energy from sunlight. So, the team found a way to move the antioxidant into different parts of the plant cells. “Our work has successfully produced beta-carotene and made it build up in specific parts of cells where it is not normally found by combining biotechnological techniques and treatments with high light intensity,” said Manual Rodríguez Concepción, lead author of the study. This Golden Lettuce could soon join a genetically enhanced salad with more nutritious radishes and peas, and antioxidant-rich purple tomatoes and potatoes. 8. What does the underlined phrase “cram in” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Forcefully push. B. Gradually reduce. C. Carefully measure. D. Casually ignore. 9. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. How beta-carotene is created. B. How beta-carotene is absorbed. C. Why Golden Lettuce looks yellow. D. Why Golden Lettuce is more nutritious. 10. Why did the team move beta-carotene out of chloroplasts? A. To store it better at other parts of cells. B. To make beta-carotene easier to be produced. C. To protect the plant’s solar energy harvesting. D. To increase the plant’s ability to perform photosynthesis. 11. What does the author imply in the last paragraph? A. People prefer salads with the Golden Lettuce over others. B. People will soon be able to buy the Golden Lettuce in the market. C. There will be more genetically engineered vegetables in the future. D. Golden Lettuce are more nutritious than purple tomatoes and potatoes. 【答案】8. A 9. D 10. C 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了西班牙科学家通过基因工程培育出了一种 “黄金生菜”，其营养成分比普通生菜高 30 倍，以及这种生菜的相关特性和培育过程。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段“Lettuce isn’t the most exciting vegetable, but you’ll often find it in sandwiches, wraps, stews and other meals as a way to cram in extra nutrients. (生菜不是最令人兴奋的蔬菜，但你会经常在三明治、卷饼、炖菜和其他食物中发现它，作为一种cram in额外营养的方式。)” 可知，人们把生菜加入到其他食物中是为了增加营养，“cram in” 意思是 “强行塞入”。故选A。 【9题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段 “A team from the Research Institute for Plant Molecular and Cellular Biology (IBMCP) has now genetically engineered the humble lettuce to boost its nutrients. Specifically, they increased the levels of an antioxidant (抗氧化剂) called beta-carotene, which your body uses to make vitamin A. This is important for healthy vision, immune (免疫的) function, and cell growth, and is thought to be protective against Alzheimer’ s, heart disease and some kinds of cancer. The levels of beta-carotene in the Golden Lettuce leaves were up to 30 times higher than those of regular lettuce. Not only that, but these antioxidants were more bioaccessible too, meaning our digestive systems can absorb them more easily from our food. Higher amounts of beta-carotene gives the leaves a striking yellow color, hence the nickname Golden Lettuce. (来自植物分子和细胞生物学研究所（IBMCP）的一个研究小组现在已经对不起眼的生菜进行了基因改造，以增加其营养成分。具体来说，它们增加了一种叫做β -胡萝卜素的抗氧化剂的水平，这种抗氧化剂是你的身体用来制造维生素a的。这对健康的视力、免疫功能和细胞生长很重要，而且被认为可以预防老年痴呆症、心脏病和某些癌症。黄金生菜中β -胡萝卜素的含量是普通生菜的30倍。不仅如此，这些抗氧化剂也更容易被生物吸收，这意味着我们的消化系统可以更容易地从食物中吸收它们。大量的β -胡萝卜素使叶子呈醒目的黄色，因此被称为黄金生菜。)可推知，第三段主要讲了金色生菜更有营养的原因。故选D。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Beta-carotene is normally produced in a plant’s chloroplasts (叶绿体), the cellular structures that perform photosynthesis (光合作用) — but if you jam too much in there, it reduces the plant’s ability to gain energy from sunlight. So, the team found a way to move the antioxidant into different parts of the plant cells. (β-胡萝卜素通常在植物的叶绿体中产生，叶绿体是进行光合作用的细胞结构 —— 但如果你在那里塞入太多，就会降低植物从阳光中获取能量的能力。所以，研究小组找到了一种方法，将这种抗氧化剂转移到植物细胞的不同部分。）” 可知，将 β- 胡萝卜素从叶绿体中转移出来是为了保护植物获取太阳能的能力。故选C。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“This Golden Lettuce could soon join a genetically enhanced salad with more nutritious radishes and peas, and antioxidant - rich purple tomatoes and potatoes. (这种黄金生菜可能很快就会加入到一种基因改良的沙拉中，这种沙拉还包括更有营养的萝卜和豌豆，以及富含抗氧化剂的紫色西红柿和土豆。)” 可推知，未来将会有更多的基因工程蔬菜。故选C。 D Last fall, I happened to overhear a student telling the others he had decided not to sign up for an introductory philosophy course. The demands of his major, he said seriously, meant he needed to take “practical” courses, and “enlightenment (启蒙)” would simply have to wait. For now, employability was the most important. The students’ conversation fits into a larger alarming narrative about the role of the humanities in higher education. In a time of technological achievement and of scientific innovation, sceptics (怀疑者) of the humanities may question the usefulness of studying Aristotle, the Italian Renaissance or Chinese fiction. Actually I regret not interrupting that student to argue for taking that introductory philosophy course. I would have started by reminding him that, for much of America’s history, college graduates were not considered truly educated unless they had mastered philosophy, literature, political theory and history. The key role of higher education was to invite students into the conversations about matters like what it means to be alive and the definition of justice. Fostering (鼓励) engagement with these subjects is still an essential part of the university’s function in society. I would have also mentioned to the student that he was misinformed about the job market. It is true that many employers are looking for graduates with specialized technical skills, but they also look for other capabilities. As the world is transformed by artificial intelligence, machine learning and automation, the unique human qualities of creativity, imagination and moral reasoning will be the ultimate coin of the realm. All these skills are developed in humanities courses. Further, I would have argued that while a degree in the sciences is an important precondition for many jobs, it is not the only route. Recent studies show that those with humanities degrees are successful in the workplace, experiencing low rates of unemployment and reporting high levels of job satisfaction. The case for the humanities can also be understood as a foundational preparation for a life well lived. A humanities education plays a vital role in encouraging citizens to lead an examined life. It fosters critical thinking, self-reflection, empathy and tolerance, the usefulness of which only becomes more apparent as one navigates (导航) life’s challenges. By all means, students should take courses they think practical and follow their interests, but if they also make a point of studying the literature of the Renaissance, or researching into modern poetry, or even taking introductory philosophy, we will all benefit. 12. What do the students’ conversation show? A. Students feel employment difficult. B. Students think philosophy less important. C. Students find scientific innovation amazing. D. Students consider university courses satisfying. 13. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Equally applied. B. Highly valued. C. Strictly assessed. D. Greatly improved. 14. The author may agree that humanities ______. A. provide great insights into life B. prepare students for graduation C. discover students’ artistic ability D. raise awareness of social celebrity 15. What can be learned from the passage? A. College education should focus on practical courses. B. Humanities are essential to both individuals and society. C. Technical skills can guarantee successful careers. D. Higher education carries people through difficult times. 【答案】12. B 13. B 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文通过学生因“实用主义”放弃哲学课程事例，探讨人文学科在高等教育中的重要性，强调其对个人成长与社会发展的双重价值，呼吁重视人文学习。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Last fall, I happened to overhear a student telling the others he had decided not to sign up for an introductory philosophy course. The demands of his major, he said seriously, meant he needed to take “practical” courses, and “enlightenment (启蒙)” would simply have to wait. For now, employability was the most important.(去年秋天，我偶然听到一个学生对其他人说，他决定不报名参加哲学入门课程。他严肃地说，自己的专业要求意味着他需要学习“实用”课程，而“启蒙”只能暂且搁置。目前来说，就业能力才是最重要的。)”可知，学生们的对话显示出学生认为哲学不那么重要。故选B项。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线短语句中“As the world is transformed by artificial intelligence, machine learning and automation, the unique human qualities of creativity, imagination and moral reasoning will be…(随着世界被人工智能、机器学习和自动化所改变，人类独特的创造力、想象力和道德推理能力将成为……。)”以及下一句“All these skills are developed in humanities courses.(所有这些技能都是在人文课程中培养出来的。)”可知，人类独特的创造力、想象力和道德推理能力都是在人文学科课程中培养出来的，这些才是真正有价值的。划线部分“the ultimate coin of the realm”与B选项“Highly valued(很有价值的)相符。故选B项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“It fosters critical thinking, self-reflection, empathy and tolerance, the usefulness of which only becomes more apparent as one navigates (导航) life’s challenges.(它培养了批判性思维、自我反省、同理心和宽容，只有当一个人面对生活的挑战时，这些东西的用处才会变得更加明显。)”可推知，作者可能会同意人文科学提供对生活的深刻见解这一观点。故选A项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据全文内容以及倒数第二段“The case for the humanities can also be understood as a foundational preparation for a life well lived. A humanities education plays a vital role in encouraging citizens to lead an examined life. It fosters critical thinking, self-reflection, empathy and tolerance, the usefulness of which only becomes more apparent as one navigates(导航)life’s challenges.(人文学科的案例也可以被理解为一个良好生活的基础准备。人文教育在鼓励公民过严谨的生活方面起着至关重要的作用。它培养了批判性思维、自我反省、同理心和宽容，只有当一个人面对生活的挑战时，这些东西的用处才会变得更加明显。)”可知，文章通过多个角度论证了人文学科的重要性，包括其对个人发展（如思维方式、道德判断）和社会价值（如促进理解与包容）的贡献，由此推断，从文章中我们可以了解到人文学科对个人和社会都是必不可少的。故选B项。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 With all the new findings on the effects of bad lifestyles, it is no wonder that so many people are eager to start changing their lifestyles for the better. ___16___ Once you get into the habit of maintaining a healthy routine, you will be able to experience the benefits of a healthy lifestyle.

Recently, I’ve noticed many peers overusing AI for homework or entertainment, which not only fuels mental passivity, declines academic performance, and weakens social bonds but also hinders long-term personal growth. Here are my suggestions. Firstly, treat AI as a tool. Prioritize independent thinking and use it to aid English learning. Secondly, AI can be helpful if used to search for study resources. Last but not least, set strict limits on AI entertainment and balance it with activities like sports and social interactions.

There was a man in town that everyone seemed to know. We all called him Bob. Bob was uneducated. It seemed that because he was good-natured and not very smart everyone teased (戏弄) him. One day when I was sitting on the porch, he came walking by. I was about 12 years old and thought it would make me feel grown up to tease him like some adults did in the town. He asked how I was doing. I told him that my father had lost his job, and that we were short of money. I could see my friends laughing in the background so I went on with the lie. I had him fooled so completely that every time he asked me a question, I would make the situation seem worse and worse. I knew he made a meager (贫困的) living doing odd jobs, so it seemed funny when he asked me if we needed anything. I told him that we didn’t know if we would have enough to eat. He replied, “You poor thing. I will pray for you. “ That night I heard the door rattle (沙沙响) softly. I thought it was the wind beating against the door. So I didn’t pay much attention to it. Later when I opened the door to go outside I realized it wasn’t wind. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150左右； (2)开头已给出； (3)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: On the doorstep, I found a box of food with a note beside it. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: The next evening, with a big apple pie made by myself, I stood at the doorstep of Bob’s house. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】On the doorstep, I found a box of food with a note beside it. Upon seeing the food, I knew who had sent it. My face burning with shame, I took the box inside with care. Packed in the box were some sandwiches, a bottle of milk and some fruit. I picked up the note, on which some words were carefully written, “Sorry, I can only get you these. Hope you like them. I will always pray for you.” The moment I finished reading the note, tears rolled down my face. How could I lie to a person with such a gentle heart? I knew it was time to make up for my mistake. The next evening, with a big apple pie made by myself, I stood at the doorstep of Bob’s house. Having gathered up my courage, I knocked on the door. Bob seemed to be a little surprised when he saw me outside. He explained that it was no big deal and that I needn’t have come to thank him. I lowered my head, apologizing to him for my silly behavior. To my surprise, he just smiled and patted me on the shoulder, saying, “It’s OK. Now shall we take a bite of this delicious apple pie?” I raised my head and nodded with tears of joy. Thanks to Bob, I have learned the magic power of kindness. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了 “我” 在 12 岁时，为了像镇上一些成年人那样显示自己成熟，向善良且不太聪明的鲍勃撒谎说家里因父亲失业而缺衣少食，鲍勃信以为真并在当晚悄悄送来食物，“我” 为此感到羞愧并决定弥补过错的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“在门阶上，我发现了一盒食物，旁边有一张纸条。”可知，第一段可描写“我” 发现鲍勃送来的食物和纸条后，看到纸条上的内容，内心充满羞愧，意识到自己的错误，决定弥补。 ②由第二段首句内容“第二天晚上，我拿着自己做的大苹果派站在鲍勃家的台阶上。”可知，第二段可描写第二天晚上，我拿着自己做的大苹果派去向鲍勃道歉，鲍勃原谅了我，一起吃苹果派。 2.续写线索：发现食物和纸条——阅读纸条内容——内心充满羞愧——制作苹果派去鲍勃家——向鲍勃道歉——鲍勃原谅——感受到善良的力量。 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①喜欢：like/fall in love with ②拿起：pick up/take up ③敲门：knock on the door/rap at the door 情绪类 ①惊讶的：surprised/astonished ②喜悦：joy/delight 【点睛】【高分句型 1】My face burning with shame, I took the box inside with care.（运用了独立主格结构） 【高分句型 2】The moment I finished reading the note, tears rolled down my face.（运用了the moment引导时间状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
