The germs that cause tuberculosis are a type of bacteria. Tuberculosis can spread when a person with the illness coughs, sneezes or sings. This can put tiny droplets with the germs into the air. Another person can then breathe in the droplets, and the germs enter the lungs. Tuberculosis spreads easily where people gather in crowds or where people live in crowded conditions. People with HIV/AIDS and other people with weakened immune systems have a higher risk of catching tuberculosis than people with typical immune systems. Symptoms When TB germs survive and multiply in the lungs, it is called a TB infection. Symptoms of active TB disease in the lungs usually begin gradually and worsen over a few weeks. They may include:  Cough.  Coughing up blood or mucus.  Chest pain.  Pain with breathing.  Fever.  Chills.  Night sweats.  Weight loss.  Not wanting to eat.  Tiredness.  Not feeling well in general. When to see a doctor The symptoms of tuberculosis are similar to symptoms of many different illnesses. See your healthcare professional if you have symptoms that don’t improve with a few days of rest. Get emergency room if you have:  Chest pain.  Sudden, severe headache.  Confusion.  Difficulty breathing. Get urgent care if you:  Cough up blood.  Have blood in your urine or stool.

B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了结核病的传播途径、易感人群、典型症状，并分级说明了就医指引，最后提供了多地预约检查的电话信息。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Overview部分第三段中“Tuberculosis spreads easily where people gather in crowds or where people live in crowded conditions. (结核病容易在人群聚集或居住条件拥挤的地方传播)”可知，生活在人口密集难民营的一群人最有可能感染结核病，需要尽快进行结核病检测。故选C项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据When to see a doctor部分的“Get emergency room if you have (如果有的话赶紧去急诊室)”、“Difficulty breathing. (呼吸困难)”以及“Get urgent care if you (如果你……需要紧急护理)”和“Cough up blood. (咳血)”可知，和咳血相比，呼吸困难属于更危急的指征，需要优先处理，患者应寻求急诊室治疗。故选B项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Appointment部分的“Rochester, Minnesota (明尼苏达州罗切斯特市)”、“Children’s Center (儿童中心)”以及对应的号码“855-629-6543”可知，明尼苏达州罗切斯特市为儿童预约结核病诊疗的人应拨打855-629-6543。故选B项。 B Rohan Mehta was given the Young Achiever award by Kensington and Chelsea Council and recognised with a civic honour by Hammersmith and Fulham Council for his work in helping rough sleepers in London. Two years ago, the 17-year-old student at Latymer Upper School, who was then preparing for his A Level exams, launched a voluntary initiative called “In The Bag”. He handed out free hygiene kits to the homeless using leftover airline toiletry bags. These life-changing kits are stuffed with essentials such as soaps, shampoos, toothbrushes, and toothpaste. Rohan approached several homeless shelters, organizations and charities in his local area and asked them what they needed. The humongous response was for basic toiletries. He said: “It’s very hard for rough sleepers to get their hands on basic toiletries and that’s where the idea started.” He also included pens, socks and ear plugs. The teen said: “I wanted to focus on something with daily hygiene. When you’re homeless, you don’t have access to a lot of these things and when you’re able to stay in a shelter overnight, for example, if you’re able to clean yourself up properly, it makes you feel a lot better.” His efforts have been recognised by two London councils. In March, he was handed the Young Achiever’s Award by the Mayor of Kensington and Chelsea. In April, he was given a civic honour by Hammersmith and Fulham Council for his contributions to building a stronger, safer, kinder borough. Rohan’s mother Sonal said it was incredibly special seeing her son receive two awards in such a short period. She said: “As a parent, you always want your kid to be kind and thoughtful, and to see that actually recognised with two awards felt very special for me because he’s genuinely worked so hard to make a difference in people’s lives and it’s moving to see how committed he is to helping others.” 4. What did Rohan Mehta use to make the free hygiene kits for the homeless? A. Newly bought toiletries from stores. B. Extra toiletry bags from the airlines. C. Donations from homeless shelters. D. Products from his own household. 5. The underlined word “humongous” in the passage is closest in meaning to ______. A. surprising B. confusing C. overwhelming D. compulsive 6. The main reason Rohan included other things in the hygiene kits is that ______. A. he thought these items were more significant than toiletries B. he wanted to make the kits look more attractive to the homeless C. he realized that these items may also improve the homeless’ life D. he was asked to include these items by the homeless shelters 7. From his mother’s words, we can infer that ______. A. Sonal is very proud of Rohan’s kindness, efforts to helping the homeless B. Sonal thinks actual efforts in helping are more important than the awards C. Sonal expected Rohan to win some awards before he started the work D. Sonal believes the awards are the main reason Rohan’s work is meaningful 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. C 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了17岁学生Rohan Mehta通过“In The Bag”项目用航空公司剩余的洗漱包制作卫生用品包帮助伦敦无家可归者，并因其善举获得表彰。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“He handed out free hygiene kits to the homeless using leftover airline toiletry bags. (他利用航空公司剩余的洗漱包向无家可归者分发免费的卫生用品包)”可知，Rohan Mehta用航空公司多余的洗漱包制作免费卫生用品包给无家可归者。故选B项。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据画线词的下文“It’s very hard for rough sleepers to get their hands on basic toiletries and that’s where the idea started. (露宿者很难得到基本的洗漱用品，这就是这个想法的起源)”可知，露宿者无法得到基本的洗漱用品，因此表示迫切需要这些物品的反馈会很多，画线词指规模或数量的庞大，与overwhelming“巨大的，压倒性的”意思一致。A. surprising令人惊讶的；B. confusing令人困惑的；D. compulsive难以抑制的。故选C项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中Rohan所说的话“I wanted to focus on something with daily hygiene. When you’re homeless, you don’t have access to a lot of these things and when you’re able to stay in a shelter overnight, for example, if you’re able to clean yourself up properly, it makes you feel a lot better. (我想专注于日常卫生问题。当你无家可归时，很难获得这些基本用品。比如，如果你能在庇护所过夜，并好好清洁自己，这会让你感觉好很多)”可知，Rohan在卫生用品包中添加其他物品的主要是因为他认为这些物品也能改善无家可归者的生活。故选C项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中Sonal所说的话“As a parent, you always want your kid to be kind and thoughtful, and to see that actually recognised with two awards felt very special for me because he’s genuinely worked so hard to make a difference in people’s lives and it’s moving to see how committed he is to helping others. (作为父母，你总是希望你的孩子善良体贴，看到他获得两个奖项对我来说感觉很特别，因为他真的很努力地工作，改变了人们的生活，看到他致力于帮助他人，我很感动)”可知，Sonal认为Rohan的善良与付出被奖项认可对她而言具有特殊意义，可推知她为孩子的善举和帮助无家可归者的努力感到骄傲。故选A项。 C Thanks to faulty artificial intelligence, deepfakes, and plain bad actors, children encounter a significant amount of false information online. Aliens live on Neptune (海王星). Ancient pyramids generated electricity. Humans don’t cause climate change. You might assume these claims are believed only by conspiracy theorists, but they could just as easily be endorsed by a curious nine-year-old with an iPad. YouTube frequently recommends AI-generated videos containing such questionable claims to children, often disguised as educational content. While children’s exposure to misleading information online isn’t new, AI has worsened the problem by enabling the fast production of problematic content that moderators struggle to control. Even children who spend limited time online are likely to encounter false or inaccurate information that could mislead them.Interacting directly with AI can be equally risky. Tools like ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, and Google’s Gemini often make errors and invent sources — a fact even Google’s CEO acknowledges. Estimates suggest over half of AI-generated responses contain factual inaccuracies. Despite this, developers design AI chatbots to sound confident and authoritative, even when they’re wrong. This creates a dangerous situation for children, who may trust conversational, natural-sounding content more readily. Yet, children are already using these technologies, and their usage isn’t slowing down. As digital natives, they often spend more time on devices than parents realize — by more than an hour per day, according to some studies. Children are generally more familiar with new platforms like AI chatbots than their parents and may turn to them for sensitive questions they’re afraid to ask adults. Research by my colleagues and me shows that children need adults to actively teach them how to distinguish fact from fiction, even if their screen time seems brief and harmless. 8. What is the main idea of the second paragraph? A. Children are the primary victims of deepfakes. B. AI-generated videos are often entertaining for children. C. YouTube is recommending false claims to children. D. Children are exposed to false information due to AI. 9. Why is AI-generated content particularly dangerous for children? A. Because it is always disguised as educational content. B. Because it can be produced rapidly and is hard to ease. C. Because children are more likely to spend time on AI platforms. D. Because AI tools always make factual education errors. 10. What does the author imply about AI chatbots in the passage? A. They are designed to be intentionally misleading. B. They are less reliable than human teachers. C. They are only used by children for entertainment. D Their tone makes them more trustworthy. 11. What does the research mentioned in the last paragraph suggest? A. Parents should limit their children’s screen time strictly. B. Children are naturally good at distinguishing fact from fiction. C. Adults need to play an role in teaching children media literacy. D. AI chatbots should be banned for children under a certain age. 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了人工智能（AI）给儿童带来的信息误导问题。 【8题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“Aliens live on Neptune (海王星). Ancient pyramids generated electricity. Humans don’t cause climate change. You might assume these claims are believed only by conspiracy theorists, but they could just as easily be endorsed by a curious nine-year-old with an iPad. YouTube frequently recommends AI-generated videos containing such questionable claims to children, often disguised as educational content. While children’s exposure to misleading information online isn’t new, AI has worsened the problem by enabling the fast production of problematic content that moderators struggle to control. (外星人住在海王星上。古代金字塔发电。人类不会引起气候变化。你可能会认为这些说法只有阴谋论者才会相信，但它们很容易被一个拿着iPad好奇的9岁孩子所认可。YouTube经常向儿童推荐人工智能生成的视频，这些视频通常伪装成教育内容。虽然儿童在网上接触误导性信息并不是什么新鲜事，但人工智能使问题内容的快速生产变得更加严重，审查员难以控制。)”可知，本段主要讲述AI导致孩子接触虚假信息，故选D。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“While children’s exposure to misleading information online isn’t new, AI has worsened the problem by enabling the fast production of problematic content that moderators struggle to control. (虽然儿童在网上接触误导性信息并不是什么新鲜事，但人工智能使问题内容的快速生产变得更加严重，审查员难以控制。)”可知，AI能快速生成有问题的内容且管理员难以管控，这使得AI生成的内容对孩子特别危险。故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Despite this, developers design AI chatbots to sound confident and authoritative, even when they’re wrong. This creates a dangerous situation for children, who may trust conversational, natural-sounding content more readily. (尽管如此，开发人员将人工智能聊天机器人设计得自信而权威，即使它们是错的。这给孩子们造成了危险的局面，他们可能更容易相信对话式的、听起来自然的内容。)”可推断，AI聊天机器人的语气让它们听起来自信权威，使孩子更容易信任，即使它们是错的。故选D。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Children are generally more familiar with new platforms like AI chatbots than their parents and may turn to them for sensitive questions they’re afraid to ask adults. Research by my colleagues and me shows that children need adults to actively teach them how to distinguish fact from fiction, even if their screen time seems brief and harmless. (孩子们通常比他们的父母更熟悉人工智能聊天机器人等新平台，并且可能会向他们求助于他们不敢问成年人的敏感问题。我和我的同事们的研究表明，孩子们需要成年人积极地教他们如何区分事实和虚构，即使他们的屏幕时间似乎短暂而无害。)” 可知，研究表明孩子需要成年人积极教他们区分事实和虚构，也就是成年人要在教授孩子媒体素养方面发挥作用。故选C。 D A toxic relationship is one that undermines your well-being — emotionally, psychologically, and sometimes even physically. These relationships can exist in various contexts, from friendships to romantic partnerships, and even within families. It is characterised by behaviours that leave you feeling unsupported, misunderstood, demeaned, or attacked. Basically, it is an interrelationship where the bad consistently outweighs the good, and your overall welfare is threatened. Recognizing toxicity allows you to take steps to protect yourself and seek healthier connections. Physical or verbal abuse is a clear sign of toxicity, but psychological abuse is not as obvious. Alongside persistent criticism and attempts to isolate you from loved ones, constantly being blamed and made to feel guilty about your or somebody else’s actions are behaviours to watch out for. According to many, however, what makes toxicity apparent in a relationship are frequent situations of consistent disrespect, where you don’t feel appreciated or are even insulted. Toxic relationships can have far-reaching consequences on the victim’s well-being on a mental and physical level. Living in these emotionally unhealthy conditions leads to a steady decrease in self-worth and self-esteem. Lacking energy after interactions and experiencing depression, anger, or tiredness are only some of the negative effects that such relationships can have on an individual. Physically, the stress and anxiety stemming from toxic dynamics can lead to a range of health issues, including digestive issues, weakened immune function, and sleep disturbances. The list of toxic behaviours is long. One of these categories is ‘behavioural control’, which includes strategies employed by individuals to influence and dominate others to achieve personal gain. Another category of toxic behaviours is ‘emotional impact’, which is determined by how individuals experience and react to emotional signals, whether they be positive or negative. It refers to the effects of emotional experiences on thoughts, feelings, and behaviour, which can range from positive emotions like happiness to negative ones like sadness or fear. This category is relevant especially for those who deal with past traumas or insecurities. These individuals are considered vulnerable as they may struggle to set limits, express needs, or protect themselves from harm, making them more prone to exploitation by others. Identifying and dealing with your weaknesses is a good starting point to build up your ability to bounce back emotionally. 12. The writer describes a toxic relationship as _______? A. a long-term relationship where the people involved feel unappreciated. B. a connection which is constantly dominated by negative experiences. C. a romantic bond in which each party feels threatened by the other. D. a family that lacks support and understanding between members. 13. According to the writer, one of the most obvious signs of psychological abuse is _______? A. a constant feeling of loneliness and isolation. B. an intense fear of being physically harmed. C. repeated occurrences that show lack of appreciation. D. continuous accusations of being at fault in any situation. 14. Which mental effects of a toxic relationship does the writer mention? A. The inability to have a good night’s sleep. B. The gradual loss of confidence in oneself. C. The lack of financial independence. D. The need to avoid emotional connections.. 15. What is the first thing you should do to develop emotional resilience? A. Recognising and working on the areas that make you vulnerable. B. Becoming more determined about getting what they need and want. C. Identifying what behaviors cause unwanted or unhappy emotions. D. Keeping yourself safe with the help of family and friends. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了有毒关系的特征、影响以及如何识别和处理这种关系，以保护个人身心健康。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Basically, it is an interrelationship where the bad consistently outweighs the good, and your overall welfare is threatened. (基本上，这是一种不良关系，其中坏的一面总是超过好的一面，你的整体福利受到威胁)”可知，作者将有毒的关系描述为一种不断被负面经历主导的关系。故选B项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“According to many, however, what makes toxicity apparent in a relationship are frequent situations of consistent disrespect, where you don’t feel appreciated or are even insulted. (然而，许多人认为，在一段关系中，让毒性显现出来的是频繁出现的持续不尊重的情况，在这种情况下，你感觉不到被欣赏，甚至被侮辱)”可知，根据作者的说法，心理虐待最明显的迹象之一是反复出现的不被欣赏的情况。故选C项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Living in these emotionally unhealthy conditions leads to a steady decrease in self-worth and self-esteem. (生活在这些情绪不健康的环境中会导致自我价值和自尊心的稳步下降)”可知，作者提到有毒关系对心理的影响之一是逐渐失去对自己的信心。故选B项。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Identifying and dealing with your weaknesses is a good starting point to build up your ability to bounce back emotionally. (识别并处理你的弱点是建立你情绪恢复能力的一个很好的起点)”可知，要培养情绪恢复力，首先要做的是认识并处理让你脆弱的方面。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。 Matilda Browne (1869-1947) was a successful artist in the early 20th century. Unfortunately, few people know her name or her art today. Matilda Browne showed promising artistic talent early in her life. Growing up in Newark, New Jersey, she got an introduction to art by watching her neighbor, painter Thomas Moran. Her parents supported their budding young artist. ___16___And it paid off. Matilda Browne participated in her first major exhibition when she was just twelve years old. Browne loved to paint animals, especially cows and other animals. ___17___ Her bold brushwork gave her paintings a live appearance. Her style is best described as Impressionism. Matilda Browne quickly became a respected and successful artist. Her list of honours opened doors that would have been otherwise inaccessible for a female artist of her time. As an adult, she moved to Connecticut, where she painted in Old Lyme. ___18___She even had the honor of painting a door of their workshop. Some sources say that her good sense of humor helped her fit in with the boys, while others claim that her seriousness is what won them over. ___19___ Browne was a successful artist throughout her life. She won numerous awards and exhibited in many important shows. However, very few people know about her today. This is a more common story for female artists than one might think. So, why has Browne faded into being unknown? ___20___She was American, while books about American Impressionists tend to focus on the male artists. A. She was the only woman accepted into the male artists’ circle there. B. It was her artistic style that hadn’t aroused people’s interest. C. Her impressive skill brought her under everyone’s notice. D. She also painted many flowers in colorful garden landscapes. E. It could result from her double minority — in gender and nationality. F. Her mother took her to Europe for training while she was quite young. G. Either way, her great skill as a painter made these other artists take notice. 【答案】16. F 17. D 18. A 19. G 20. E 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了艺术家Matilda Browne的个人经历以及成就，和她默默无名的原因。 【16题详解】 根据上文“Matilda Browne showed promising artistic talent early in her life. Growing up in Newark, New Jersey, she got an introduction to art by watching her neighbor, painter Thomas Moran. Her parents supported their budding young artist.(玛蒂尔达·布朗早年就表现出了很有前途的艺术才华。她在新泽西州的纽瓦克长大，通过观察她的邻居，画家托马斯·莫兰，她开始接触艺术。她的父母支持他们崭露头角的年轻艺术家)”以及后文“And it paid off. Matilda Browne participated in her first major exhibition when she was just twelve years old.(这样做得到了回报。玛蒂尔达·布朗在12岁的时候参加了她的第一次大型展览)”可知，本段讲述了 Matilda Browne小时候接受的画画方面的启蒙及支持，本句旨在说明哪种行为最后取得了回报。故F选项“她很小的时候，她妈妈就带她去欧洲训练”符合语境，故选F。 【17题详解】 根据上文“Browne loved to paint animals, especially cows and other animals.(布朗喜欢画动物，尤其是牛和其他动物)”可知，这一段介绍她的绘画风格。从D选项中的“also”可知, 这是她风格中的另一个方面。故D选项“她还画了许多在丰富多彩的花园风景中的花”符合语境，故选D。 【18题详解】 根据后文“She even had the honor of painting a door of their workshop. Some sources say that her good sense of humor helped her fit in with the boys, while others claim that her seriousness is what won them over.(她甚至有幸为他们的工作间画了一扇门。有消息称，她的幽默感帮助她与男孩们打成一片，而另一些人则声称，她的认真是赢得男孩们好感的原因)”可知，后文提到她的幽默感帮助她与男孩们打成一片，说明她被男性艺术家圈子接纳了，故A选项“她是那里男性艺术家圈子里唯一被接纳的女性”符合语境，故选A。 【19题详解】 根据上文“Some sources say that her good sense of humor helped her fit in with the boys, while others claim that her seriousness is what won them over.(有消息称，她的幽默感帮助她与男孩们打成一片，而另一些人则声称，她的认真是赢得男孩们好感的原因)”可知，人们对 Matilda Browne 被接纳进入男性艺术家圈子进行两方面原因的猜测，本句为本段最后一句，进行总结：但无论猜测如何，真正使她获得关注的是她的才华。故G选项“不管怎样，她高超的绘画技巧引起了其他艺术家的注意”符合语境，故选G。 【20题详解】 根据上文“So, why has Browne faded into being unknown?(那么，为什么布朗变得默默无闻了呢？)”以及后文“She was American, while books about American Impressionists tend to focus on the male artists.(她是美国人，而关于美国印象派的书往往集中在男性艺术家身上)”可知，此空和后一句分析 Matilda Browne从那个时代的闻名到如今的默默无闻的原因。故E选项“这可能是由于她在性别和国籍上的双重少数群体”符合语境，故选E。 第三部分语言运用(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，从每题所给的A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Maryland couple stranded (滞留) without food in the freezing cold on a Virginia highway.

My children were getting older and I wanted to show them that age was only a number and anything can be accomplished if you work for it. I come from a family of hard workers. My grandparents were not overly educated but they were successful and smart. My parents are very well-educated and hardworking individuals. Instilling in me a desire to never give up. Both having grown up in the harsh city of Chicago my father went to the army and married my mother after high school. Even though their marriage did not last. I watched how each of them handle adversity and triumphed through it. I remember being told by my father that my daughter while visiting him in Arkansas, she had negotiated a contract signing with my son, in regards to him washing dishes and I knew then that my definite calling was to become an Attorney. Recognizing I could leave my indelible mark on the world for my children to relish. Then enlightened enough to know these marriages nearly shattered my existence. I became less of myself each time. Losing all my self desires and making my life all about my family and their needs. Balancing life and love is often difficult at times. I have come to realize that my time is now. Now that I have raised 2 children and faced adversity head-on throughout my life. No more waiting and wondering what could have been. 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。 This is an important point in my life and this decision could not come at a better time._________ _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I get incredible joy out of challenging what I consider unfair.________ _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 This is an important point in my life and this decision could not come at a better time. I enrolled in night classes while working full-time during the day. It was tough to balance work, family, and studies, but the example of my hard-working family kept me going. My children, now grown, were my biggest supporters. They saw me stay up late studying, yet still manage to be there for their important moments. Sometimes I felt exhausted, but I remembered my father’s words and the desire to set a good example. I wanted to prove that it’s never too late to pursue your dreams. Bit by bit, I made progress in my studies. I get incredible joy out of challenging what I consider unfair. As I studied law, I found my passion for fighting for justice. I took part in legal aid projects, helping those who couldn’t afford expensive lawyers. Seeing the difference I could make in people’s lives was amazing. After years of hard work, I finally earned my Bachelor’s degree and went on to become an attorney. Now, when I look back, I’m proud of what I’ve achieved. My story shows that with determination and the support of family, you can overcome any obstacle. I hope my children will always remember that they can achieve anything they set their minds to, no matter the challenges. 【解析】 【导语】本文以作者的个人经历为线索，讲述了其在中年时期决定重返校园完成学士学位，并通过自身努力最终成为律师的故事。文章展现了作者面对生活挑战时的坚韧态度，以及希望通过自身行为为子女树立榜样的决心。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“这是我生命中的一个重要时刻，这个决定来得再及时不过了”可知，第一段可描写作者为完成学士学位所做的努力，如平衡工作、家庭和学习，家人的支持等。 ②由第二段首句内容“我从挑战我认为不公平的事情中获得了难以置信的快乐”可知，第二段可描写作者在学习法律过程中找到激情，参与法律援助项目，最终实现梦想成为律师，以及从中获得的感悟。 2.续写线索：作者决定学习——平衡各方面——家人支持——学习法律——参与援助——成为律师——个人感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①平衡：balance/keep balance of ②支持：support/back ③参与：take part in/participate in ④取得学位：earn a degree/graduate 情绪类 ①快乐：joy/happiness ②自豪：proud/be proud of 【点睛】【高分句型1】It was tough to balance work, family, and studies, but the example of my hard - working family kept me going.(运用了由but连接的并列句) 【高分句型2】Seeing the difference I could make in people’s lives was amazing.(运用了动名词短语作主语) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 绝密★启用前 2024-2025年上饶中学高二下学期第三次月考 英语试卷 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分 30 分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1分，满分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.

The germs that cause tuberculosis are a type of bacteria. Tuberculosis can spread when a person with the illness coughs, sneezes or sings. This can put tiny droplets with the germs into the air. Another person can then breathe in the droplets, and the germs enter the lungs. Tuberculosis spreads easily where people gather in crowds or where people live in crowded conditions. People with HIV/AIDS and other people with weakened immune systems have a higher risk of catching tuberculosis than people with typical immune systems. Symptoms When TB germs survive and multiply in the lungs, it is called a TB infection. Symptoms of active TB disease in the lungs usually begin gradually and worsen over a few weeks. They may include:  Cough.  Coughing up blood or mucus.  Chest pain.  Pain with breathing.  Fever.  Chills.  Night sweats.  Weight loss.  Not wanting to eat.  Tiredness.  Not feeling well in general. When to see a doctor The symptoms of tuberculosis are similar to symptoms of many different illnesses. See your healthcare professional if you have symptoms that don’t improve with a few days of rest.

B Rohan Mehta was given the Young Achiever award by Kensington and Chelsea Council and recognised with a civic honour by Hammersmith and Fulham Council for his work in helping rough sleepers in London. Two years ago, the 17-year-old student at Latymer Upper School, who was then preparing for his A Level exams, launched a voluntary initiative called “In The Bag”. He handed out free hygiene kits to the homeless using leftover airline toiletry bags. These life-changing kits are stuffed with essentials such as soaps, shampoos, toothbrushes, and toothpaste. Rohan approached several homeless shelters, organizations and charities in his local area and asked them what they needed. The humongous response was for basic toiletries. He said: “It’s very hard for rough sleepers to get their hands on basic toiletries and that’s where the idea started.” He also included pens, socks and ear plugs. The teen said: “I wanted to focus on something with daily hygiene. When you’re homeless, you don’t have access to a lot of these things and when you’re able to stay in a shelter overnight, for example, if you’re able to clean yourself up properly, it makes you feel a lot better.” His efforts have been recognised by two London councils. In March, he was handed the Young Achiever’s Award by the Mayor of Kensington and Chelsea. In April, he was given a civic honour by Hammersmith and Fulham Council for his contributions to building a stronger, safer, kinder borough. Rohan’s mother Sonal said it was incredibly special seeing her son receive two awards in such a short period. She said: “As a parent, you always want your kid to be kind and thoughtful, and to see that actually recognised with two awards felt very special for me because he’s genuinely worked so hard to make a difference in people’s lives and it’s moving to see how committed he is to helping others.” 4. What did Rohan Mehta use to make the free hygiene kits for the homeless? A. Newly bought toiletries from stores. B. Extra toiletry bags from the airlines. C. Donations from homeless shelters. D. Products from his own household. 5. The underlined word “humongous” in the passage is closest in meaning to ______. A. surprising B. confusing C. overwhelming D. compulsive 6. The main reason Rohan included other things in the hygiene kits is that ______. A. he thought these items were more significant than toiletries B. he wanted to make the kits look more attractive to the homeless C. he realized that these items may also improve the homeless’ life D. he was asked to include these items by the homeless shelters 7. From his mother’s words, we can infer that ______. A. Sonal is very proud of Rohan’s kindness, efforts to helping the homeless B. Sonal thinks actual efforts in helping are more important than the awards C. Sonal expected Rohan to win some awards before he started the work D. Sonal believes the awards are the main reason Rohan’s work is meaningful C Thanks to faulty artificial intelligence, deepfakes, and plain bad actors, children encounter a significant amount of false information online. Aliens live on Neptune (海王星). Ancient pyramids generated electricity. Humans don’t cause climate change. You might assume these claims are believed only by conspiracy theorists, but they could just as easily be endorsed by a curious nine-year-old with an iPad. YouTube frequently recommends AI-generated videos containing such questionable claims to children, often disguised as educational content. While children’s exposure to misleading information online isn’t new, AI has worsened the problem by enabling the fast production of problematic content that moderators struggle to control. Even children who spend limited time online are likely to encounter false or inaccurate information that could mislead them.Interacting directly with AI can be equally risky. Tools like ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, and Google’s Gemini often make errors and invent sources — a fact even Google’s CEO acknowledges. Estimates suggest over half of AI-generated responses contain factual inaccuracies. Despite this, developers design AI chatbots to sound confident and authoritative, even when they’re wrong. This creates a dangerous situation for children, who may trust conversational, natural-sounding content more readily. Yet, children are already using these technologies, and their usage isn’t slowing down. As digital natives, they often spend more time on devices than parents realize — by more than an hour per day, according to some studies. Children are generally more familiar with new platforms like AI chatbots than their parents and may turn to them for sensitive questions they’re afraid to ask adults. Research by my colleagues and me shows that children need adults to actively teach them how to distinguish fact from fiction, even if their screen time seems brief and harmless. 8. What is the main idea of the second paragraph? A. Children are the primary victims of deepfakes. B AI-generated videos are often entertaining for children. C. YouTube is recommending false claims to children. D. Children are exposed to false information due to AI. 9. Why is AI-generated content particularly dangerous for children? A. Because it is always disguised as educational content. B. Because it can be produced rapidly and is hard to ease. C. Because children are more likely to spend time on AI platforms. D. Because AI tools always make factual education errors. 10. What does the author imply about AI chatbots in the passage? A. They are designed to be intentionally misleading. B. They are less reliable than human teachers. C. They are only used by children for entertainment. D. Their tone makes them more trustworthy. 11. What does the research mentioned in the last paragraph suggest? A. Parents should limit their children’s screen time strictly. B. Children are naturally good at distinguishing fact from fiction. C. Adults need to play an role in teaching children media literacy. D. AI chatbots should be banned for children under a certain age. D A toxic relationship is one that undermines your well-being — emotionally, psychologically, and sometimes even physically. These relationships can exist in various contexts, from friendships to romantic partnerships, and even within families. It is characterised by behaviours that leave you feeling unsupported, misunderstood, demeaned, or attacked. Basically, it is an interrelationship where the bad consistently outweighs the good, and your overall welfare is threatened. Recognizing toxicity allows you to take steps to protect yourself and seek healthier connections. Physical or verbal abuse is a clear sign of toxicity, but psychological abuse is not as obvious. Alongside persistent criticism and attempts to isolate you from loved ones, constantly being blamed and made to feel guilty about your or somebody else’s actions are behaviours to watch out for. According to many, however, what makes toxicity apparent in a relationship are frequent situations of consistent disrespect, where you don’t feel appreciated or are even insulted. Toxic relationships can have far-reaching consequences on the victim’s well-being on a mental and physical level. Living in these emotionally unhealthy conditions leads to a steady decrease in self-worth and self-esteem. Lacking energy after interactions and experiencing depression, anger, or tiredness are only some of the negative effects that such relationships can have on an individual. Physically, the stress and anxiety stemming from toxic dynamics can lead to a range of health issues, including digestive issues, weakened immune function, and sleep disturbances. The list of toxic behaviours is long. One of these categories is ‘behavioural control’, which includes strategies employed by individuals to influence and dominate others to achieve personal gain. Another category of toxic behaviours is ‘emotional impact’, which is determined by how individuals experience and react to emotional signals, whether they be positive or negative. It refers to the effects of emotional experiences on thoughts, feelings, and behaviour, which can range from positive emotions like happiness to negative ones like sadness or fear.
