He graduated from the Chongqing Institute of Architecture and Engineering in 1982. Driven by his fearless spirit and artistic enthusiasm, he volunteered to work in Nagqu, Tibet — one of the world’s highest and harshest regions. In 1999, Liu established Jiakun Architects in his hometown of Chengdu. Since then, he has completed over 30 architectural projects across China. Rather than pursuing flashy or showy designs, Liu is known for honoring existing conditions and uplifting the human spirit through his work. One of his most notable projects is the “West Village” in Chengdu, completed in 2015. This five-story courtyard complex integrates cultural, athletic, recreational and commercial spaces. It wraps around an entire city block and features open pathways for cyclists and pedestrians, creating a mini-village that connects people with their environment. Liu’s architectural philosophy emphasizes integration with both social and natural contexts. His design for the Shuijingfang Museum, completed in 2013, exemplifies (例证) this approach. The museum, which showcases the history of Chinese baijiu liquor, carefully preserves the 600-year-old distillery (酿酒厂) site and respects the scale of surrounding low-rise residences. “I want my architecture to coexist with nature while reflecting the character of the local environment,” Liu explained in an interview. When Liu Jiakun was awarded the Pritzker Prize, jury chairman Alejandro Aravena praised him for his thoughtful and consistent approach. “In a world that tends to be dull, he has found a way to build spaces, combining buildings, infrastructure, landscape, and public areas, which are both coherent and inspiring,” Aravena stated. “He approaches each project uniquely, guided by its specific context and requirements, free from aesthetic or stylistic limitations.” Through a body of work marked by sensitivity, integrity, and humanism, Liu Jiakun continues to imagine and shape environments where architecture serves people and place in equal measure. 4. Which of the following words can best describe Liu Jiakun? A. Reliable and persistent. B. Faithful and sympathetic. C. Courageous and talented. D. Generous and innovative. 5. What is Liu Jiakun’s architectural feature? A. Focus on visual effect. B. Pursuit of urbanization. C. Integration with surroundings. D. Combination with foreign styles. 6. What does Aravena mainly talk about? A. Influence of Liu’s designing style. B. Concept of Liu’s distinctive design. C. Journey of Liu’s academic life. D. Overview of Liu’s famous works. 7. Where is this text probably taken from? A. A travel guidebook. B. A biography of an architect. C. A school textbook. D. An architectural magazine. 【答案】4. C 5. C 6. B 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了建筑师刘家琨的经历、作品及建筑理念。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Driven by his fearless spirit and artistic enthusiasm, he volunteered to work in Nagqu, Tibet — one of the world’s highest and harshest regions.(凭借着无畏的精神和艺术热情，他自愿前往西藏那曲工作——这是世界上海拔最高、环境最恶劣的地区之一)”以及第二段中“Rather than pursuing flashy or showy designs, Liu is known for honoring existing conditions and uplifting the human spirit through his work.(刘家琨并不追求花哨惹眼的设计，而是以尊重现有环境、通过作品振奋人心而闻名)”可推知，刘家琨勇敢且才华横溢。故选C。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Liu’s architectural philosophy emphasizes integration with both social and natural contexts.(刘的建筑理念强调要与社会环境和自然环境相融合)”可知，刘家琨的建筑特色是与周围环境融为一体。故选C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“When Liu Jiakun was awarded the Pritzker Prize, jury chairman Alejandro Aravena praised him for his thoughtful and consistent approach. “In a world that tends to be dull, he has found a way to build spaces, combining buildings, infrastructure, landscape, and public areas, which are both coherent and inspiring,” Aravena stated. “He approaches each project uniquely, guided by its specific context and requirements, free from aesthetic or stylistic limitations.”(当刘家琨获得普利兹克奖时，评委会主席亚历杭德罗・阿拉维纳称赞他的设计思路深思熟虑且始终如一。阿拉维纳表示：“在一个趋于单调的世界里，他找到了一种打造空间的方式，将建筑、基础设施、景观和公共区域融为一体，既协调统一又富有启发性。他对待每个项目都独具匠心，以项目的具体环境和需求为导向，不受审美或风格的限制。”)”可知，阿拉维纳主要谈论了刘独特设计的理念。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Liu Jiakun, born in Chengdu in 1956, discovered his passion for architecture through his love of drawing. He graduated from the Chongqing Institute of Architecture and Engineering in1982. Driven by his fearless spirit and artistic enthusiasm, he volunteered to work in Nagqu, Tibet — one of the world’s highest and harshest regions.(刘家琨于1956年出生在成都，他通过热爱绘画的方式发现了自己对建筑的热爱。1982年，他毕业于重庆建筑工程学院。凭借着无畏的精神和艺术热情，他自愿前往西藏那曲工作——这是世界上海拔最高、环境最恶劣的地区之一)”结合全文内容可知，文章围绕建筑师刘家琨的经历、作品、理念及获奖展开，符合建筑杂志内容特点。故选D。 C Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei said last week that artificial intelligence could wipe out half of all entry-level white-collar jobs within five years, making the unemployment rate as high as 20%. Is that true? Humans have experienced several technological disruptions (扰乱) before, and now we have adapted to meet them. AI won’t be any different. There was a time when the elevators in hotels and office buildings were staffed by human operators. Then in the 1930s, elevator companies began installing “robot elevators” with automatic controls, and eventually elevator operators completely disappeared, with no tide of unemployment. Some people see AI as a job killer. However, research shows that broad adoption of AI could boost the country’s productivity growth by 1.5% per year, resulting in higher salaries, higher profits and more savings. Those people do not realize that the savings from increased productivity is recycled back into the economy. This creates new demand and in turn creates more jobs. Some are entirely new, such as “content creator assistant,” and others are existing jobs that are higher in demand because people have more money to spend — for example, personal trainers. Further, there is a great deal of work that only humans can do. Self-driving school buses will still need an adult to watch the kids. As for police, AI robots won’t be arresting criminals anytime soon. It’s a similar story for CEOs, fashion models and flight attendants. Most occupations involve working with other people, with things or with ideas that are too complex for AI to handle alone. Let’s imagine that Mr. Amodei’s forecast turns out to be accurate. Entry-level white-collar jobs account for less than 15% of the U. S. labor force. Wiping out half of them in five years would mean roughly 2.6 million jobs lost per year. That sounds like a lot, but the fact is that about 20 million U. S. workers are laid off every year. In other words, the supposed AI job loss, even if it occurred, would be the equivalent of only about six weeks of normal labor-market disturbance. 8. Why is “elevator operators” mentioned? A. To justify a job. B. To illustrate a point. C. To introduce a topic. D. To make a prediction. 9. What do people viewing AI as a job killer fail to understand? A. Jobs lost will be lost forever. B. Some jobs will never disappear. C. Application of AI creates jobs. D. Jobs involving AI are in demand. 10. What does the last paragraph focus on? A What effects AI has on the U. S. labor-market. B. What makes Mr. Amodei make the prediction. C. Why Mr. Amodei’s forecast makes little sense. D. Why we should take AI development seriously. 11. What does the author mainly argue for? A. It’s time to get ready for AI’s arrival. B. Humans have adapted to AI advances. C Some jobs are not suitable for AI to do. D. AI is not responsible for unemployment. 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。主要讲述人工智能对就业的影响，作者通过历史技术革新案例、经济学分析和工作特性，反驳AI会导致大规模失业的担忧，作者认为AI不会导致大量失业，因历史技术变革未引发失业潮，且AI可提升生产力、创造新需求及人类专属工作。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Humans have experienced several technological disruptions (扰乱) before, and now we have adapted to meet them. AI won’t be any different. There was a time when the elevators in hotels and office buildings were staffed by human operators. Then in the 1930s, elevator companies began installing “robot elevators” with automatic controls, and eventually elevator operators completely disappeared, with no tide of unemployment.(人类此前经历过多次技术变革，如今我们也已适应并应对了这些变革。人工智能也不例外。曾经有段时间，酒店和办公楼里的电梯都是由人工操作员来操控的。到了20世纪30年代，电梯公司开始安装配备自动控制系统的‘机器人电梯’，最终电梯操作员完全消失不见了，而且也没有出现大规模的失业潮)”可知，提到“电梯操作员”是为了阐明一个观点，技术革新虽取代旧工作但未引发失业，以此支撑AI不会导致失业的核心观点。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Those people do not realize that the savings from increased productivity is recycled back into the economy. This creates new demand and in turn creates more jobs.(这些人没有意识到，由于生产效率的提高所节省下来的资金会重新投入经济之中。这会带来新的需求，进而创造更多的就业机会)”可知，那些将人工智能视为会取代工作岗位的人没有理解到人工智能的应用会创造新的工作岗位。故选C。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Let’s imagine that Mr. Amodei’s forecast turns out to be accurate. Entry-level white-collar jobs account for less than 15% of the U. S. labor force. Wiping out half of them in five years would mean roughly 2.6 million jobs lost per year. That sounds like a lot, but the fact is that about 20 million U. S. workers are laid off every year. In other words, the supposed AI job loss, even if it occurred, would be the equivalent of only about six weeks of normal labor-market disturbance.(假设阿莫迪先生的预测是准确的。美国的初级白领工作岗位仅占劳动力总数的不到15%。在五年内将其削减一半意味着每年将有大约260万个工作岗位消失。这听起来确实很多，但事实是，美国每年约有 2000 万工人失业。换句话说，即便所谓的‘人工智能导致的失业’情况真的发生了，那也只是相当于正常劳动力市场波动的约六周时间)”可知，最后一段的重点是为什么阿莫迪先生的预测毫无意义。故选C。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，根据第二段中“Humans have experienced several technological disruptions (扰乱) before, and now we have adapted to meet them. AI won’t be any different.(人类之前经历过几次技术颠覆，现在我们已经适应了它们。AI不会有什么不同。)”、第三段中“Some people see AI as a job killer. However, research shows that broad adoption of AI could boost the country’s productivity growth by 1.5% per year, resulting in higher salaries, higher profits and more savings. (有些人将人工智能视为工作杀手。然而，研究表明，广泛采用人工智能可以使该国的生产率每年增长1.5%，从而带来更高的工资、更高的利润和更多的储蓄。)”以及第四段中“Further, there is a great deal of work that only humans can do. (此外，有很多工作只有人类才能做。)”可知，作者认为人类能够适应AI进步，AI的应用反而可能创造新工作机会，且有些工作AI无法替代，由此可知，作者主要论证AI不是失业的责任源头，并非造成失业的原因。故选D。 D How should water flow through fields? What directions and widths are appropriate for ridge (田埂) planting? Where should more fertilizer be applied, and where should less be applied? These once-general farming questions have now become precise, science-guided considerations in China's efforts to protect its valuable farmland. The black soil in the northeastern provinces is often called the “giant panda of cultivated land” due to its scarcity (稀缺) and fertility. Over the years, it has suffered varying degrees of degradation, mainly due to over-exploitation (过度开发) and climate change. Scientists are now developing tailored cultivation techniques and conservation measures to safeguard food security and ecological balance there. To address this, the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), in collaboration with other relevant authorities, launched the “Black Soil Granary” program in 2021. The initiative aims to provide scientific and technological support to control soil degradation and promote modern agricultural practices. So far, scientists have created a comprehensive solution that enables a systematic understanding of the black soil. This includes detailed diagnostics, customized recommendations, and technical treatments. Integrating remote sensing, satellite positioning, and artificial intelligence, researchers have even developed an advanced mobile app that connects with smart agricultural machinery. This app provides farmers with real-time information on soil composition, weather conditions, crop growth, natural disasters, and yield forecasts. It also offers precise farming guidance, including how to fertilize, irrigate, sow seeds, and spray pesticides. The app can generate detailed fertilization maps and transmit them directly to intelligent machines, which then adjust fertilizer quantities on the go, enhancing efficiency while reducing environmental impact. The results have been significant. Fertilizer use has dropped by 5 to 15 percent, while yields have risen by 5.48 to 14.2 percent. On nine pilot farms, grain production has increased by 5 to 22 percent, and soil erosion has been reduced by 70 percent. 12. Why is the black soil called the “giant panda of cultivated land”? A. Because it is vital and dear. B. Because it is rare and fertile. C. Because it is rich and abundant. D. Because it is fragile and endangered. 13. What does the underlined word “degradation” probably mean? A. Lessening. B. Worsening. C. Desertification. D. Pollution. 14. What does the author try to illustrate by listing the figures in the last paragraph? A. Effective guidance. B. Successful preservation. C. Impressive improvements. D. Remarkable policies. 15. What would be the best title for the text? A. Sci-tech methods tailored for black soil B. Natural forces causing black soil decline C. Smart farming apps designed for black soil D. Protection measures boosting black soil yield 【答案】12. B 13. B 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要讲述科学家及有关部门启动“黑土粮仓”计划，用科技保护东北的黑土地。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The black soil in the northeastern provinces is often called the ‘giant panda of cultivated land’ due to its scarcity (稀缺) and fertility.(东北省份的黑土因其稀缺性和肥力，常被称为‘耕地中的大熊猫’)”可知，东北省份的黑土因其稀缺性和肥力而被称为“耕地中的大熊猫”，故选B。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后“mainly due to over-exploitation (过度开发) and climate change(主要是由于过度开发和气候变化)”可知，土地因过度开发和气候变化应是会遭到破坏，degradation意为“毁坏，恶化”，故选B。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The results have been significant. Fertilizer use has dropped by 5 to 15 percent, while yields have risen by 5.48 to 14.2 percent. On nine pilot farms, grain production has increased by 5 to 22 percent, and soil erosion has been reduced by 70 percent.(结果是显著的。化肥使用量下降了5%至15%，而产量却上升了5.48%至14.2%。在9个试点农场，粮食产量增加了5%至22%，土壤侵蚀减少了70%)”可知，第一句提到结果是显著的，接着下文通过列举数据说明显著的效果，故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，结合第二段中“Scientists are now developing tailored cultivation techniques and conservation measures to safeguard food security and ecological balance there.(科学家们现在正在开发量身定制的种植技术和保护措施，以保障那里的粮食安全和生态平衡)”可知，文章主要讲述科学家及有关部门启动“黑土粮仓”计划，用科技保护东北的黑土地，A项“为黑土量身定制的科技方法”最适合作为标题，故选A。 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。 Remember the last time you bought a new tech gadget (小型产品) say, a smart phone? You likely bought it because you heard good things about it from friends. It makes sense. Decades of research have shown how positive word-of-mouth can lead consumers to buy a product. ___16___ We found that the more people had heard others talking about their new product, the more worried and anxious they felt about using it. What’s more, the more worried and anxious they felt, the more cautious they were in using their new product. ___17___ Thus these less satisfied consumers were more likely to spread negative word-of-mouth. ___18___ It all comes down to social pressure. As consumers hear more “This app is awesome!!” from others about a new product, it makes them both more likely to buy and more likely to worry that they won’t be able to use the app as well as other people. ___19___ This worry and caution makes them less likely to fully explore and learn the app, making their experience with the app less positive overall. So how can companies maintain the benefits of positive word-of-mouth but avoid the downsides we observe? One possible answer is to avoid emphasizing performance and competence in their advertising. ___20___ Also sharing stories about learning and exploring while using a new product, and even about temporary failures, could lessen the pressure to perform, and help consumers successfully and happily use their new products. A. The caution led to lower levels of satisfaction. B. This will make consumers order more cautiously. C. How will word-of-mouth influence future purchase? D. Will they be able to experience its full awesomeness? E. However, our study identified some potential downsides. F. Why does hearing positive word-of-mouth have downsides? G. Encourage consumers spreading word-of-mouth to do the same. 【答案】16. E 17. A 18. F 19. D 20. G 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章讲述了正面口碑的负面影响，以及如何在保持正面口碑好处的同时避免负面影响。 【16题详解】 上文“Decades of research have shown how positive word-of-mouth can lead consumers to buy a product.(几十年的研究表明，正面的口碑是如何引导消费者购买产品的)”提到正面口碑的作用，下一段首句“We found that the more people had heard others talking about their new product, the more worried and anxious they felt about using it.(我们发现，人们听到别人谈论他们的新产品越多，他们对使用它就越担心和焦虑)”描述了其负面影响，故空处应是出现转折，引出下文内容，E项“然而，我们的研究发现了一些潜在的缺点”符合语境，故选E。 【17题详解】 上文“We found that the more people had heard others talking about their new product, the more worried and anxious they felt about using it. What’s more, the more worried and anxious they felt, the more cautious they were in using their new product.(我们发现，人们听到别人谈论他们的新产品越多，他们对使用它就越担心和焦虑。更重要的是，他们越是感到担心和焦虑，他们在使用新产品时就越谨慎)”提到产品的正面口碑会导致人们产生负面情绪，从而使用新产品时会更加谨慎，下文“Thus these less satisfied consumers were more likely to spread negative word-of-mouth.(因此，这些不太满意的消费者更有可能传播负面的口碑)”提到“这些不太满意的消费者”，所以空处应是提到人们产生的负面情绪以及谨慎会导致他们不满意，A项“这会导致满意度降低”符合语境，故选A。 【18题详解】 根据下文“It all comes down to social pressure. As consumers hear more ‘This app is awesome!!’ from others about a new product, it makes them both more likely to buy and more likely to worry that they won’t be able to use the app as well as other people.(这一切都归结于社会压力。当消费者听到更多‘这个应用太棒了！！’，这会让他们更有可能购买，也更有可能担心自己不能像其他人一样使用该应用程序)”可知，本段是说正面的口碑更有可能让人产生担忧，F项“为什么听到正面的口碑会有负面影响？”适合作为本段主旨句，下文是回答该问题，故选F。 【19题详解】 根据上文“As consumers hear more ‘This app is awesome!!’ from others about a new product, it makes them both more likely to buy and more likely to worry that they won’t be able to use the app as well as other people.(当消费者听到更多‘这个应用太棒了！！’，这会让他们更有可能购买，也更有可能担心自己不能像其他人一样使用该应用程序)”和下文“This worry and caution makes them less likely to fully explore and learn the app(这种担心和谨慎使他们不太可能充分探索和学习应用)”可知，正面的口碑会使人们担心自己不能像其他人一样充分使用该应用程序，D项“他们能体验到它的全部精彩吗？”符合语境，故选D。 【20题详解】 上文“One possible answer is to avoid emphasizing performance and competence in their advertising.(一个可能的答案是避免在广告中强调性能和能力)”提到公司应该避免在广告中强调性能和能力，G项“鼓励通过口碑传播的消费者也这样做”强调消费者的正确做法，G项中“to do the same”呼应上文“to avoid emphasizing performance and competence in their advertising.”，故选G。 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） Two years ago, while packing up her mother’s possessions after the funeral, Blumberg found three knit sweaters in various stages of construction.

As the saying goes, “Never too old to learn.” In a rapidly changing world it is vital to remain lifelong learners. Lifelong learning enables us to fuel endless curiosity, unlock new possibilities and equip us with skills to adapt to new challenges. Without it, we risk being left behind in this fast-paced world. As for me, I integrate lifelong learning into my daily life. To begin with, I make it a daily habit to read books on various topics, ranging from literature to science, which can sharpen my critical thinking and affect my character shaping. Additionally, joining clubs allows me to gain hands-on skills such as gardening, bridging theory with practice. Moreover, field trips, like visits to museums, offer me an immersive learning experience and bring abstract knowledge to life. What’s equally worth mentioning is that I also subscribe to e-learning courses to expand knowledge beyond the school curriculum. In conclusion, in a world of constant changes, we should never cease to learn. Only by refreshing our knowledge and updating our skills continuously can we stay adaptable and competitive.

Every summer, the two families held backyard barbecues together, with Mark bringing homemade dumplings and Daniel’s wife preparing her famous cakes. During holidays, they exchanged small but thoughtful gifts. One June, Mark began building a new garden shed to store his tools. He hired a construction team that worked quickly but not carefully. Large wooden boards and sharp nails were piled dangerously close to Daniel’s fence. Daniel noticed that and warned the workers to be more careful, but the warning was brushed off. Then it happened. A sudden summer storm hit the town. Strong winds knocked over the pile of wood. The damage to Daniel’s garden was awful—his wife’s prized rose bushes, which she had been nurturing (培育) for over fifteen years, were crushed and destroyed. She was heartbroken. Failing to comfort her, Daniel stormed over to Mark’s house, demanding an apology and help with the repairs. But Mark, who had just returned from work and was tired and stressed, felt wrongly accused. “It’s not on purpose,” he said sharply. “You can’t blame me for the weather.” “But it wouldn’t have happened if your workers had listened!” Daniel argued. Voices were raised, fingers pointed, and neither side was willing to back down. That day, a long-standing friendship cracked under pressure. From then on, they stopped greeting each other and even avoided eye contact. Days passed. Seasons changed. But the cold silence remained. Winter came. One day, Daniel caught a glimpse of Mark and noticed he was in a wheelchair with a cast (石膏) on his leg. Daniel hesitated about going over but his feet remained. A heavy snowstorm quietly arrived that night, blanketing the neighborhood in thick, icy snow. When morning came, driveways were buried, and doors were nearly frozen shut. Men came out of their houses to clear the driveways. By the window Mark looked at his broken leg and sighed, “My responsibility! But now there’s no chance for me to make it.” At noon, Daniel noticed Mark’s driveway was still covered with thick snow. 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。 Daniel decided to help. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ A snow-cleared driveway appeared before Mark and his family. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Daniel decided to help. He dressed warmly, picked up his snow shovel, and stepped into the cold. Without a word, he walked to Mark’s driveway and began to clear the heavy snow. Soon, the sound of scraping echoed through the quiet neighborhood. Inside, Mark’s wife noticed and quickly joined Daniel with a broom, brushing the steps and path. Mark watched from the window, emotion tightening his chest. The sight of Daniel working steadily, despite the past, made something shift inside him. A snow-cleared driveway appeared before Mark and his family. Mark rolled to the door, the cold air rushing in as he looked at the giant figure in the snow. “Thank you,” he said simply, his voice uncertain but sincere. Daniel gave a quiet nod, eyes soft but steady. Mark paused, then added, “I was wrong that day…tired or not, I shouldn’t have yelled. I’m truly sorry about the roses, and everything.” Daniel’s gaze softened further. That evening, Mark’s wife brought over dumplings; Daniel’s wife returned the gesture with slices of cake. The snow kept falling, but between the two homes, warmth had quietly returned—built not by words, but by forgiveness and shared kindness. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了马克和丹尼尔是关系亲密的邻居，然而，马克建新花园棚屋时，施工队将材料危险地堆放在丹尼尔家附近，丹尼尔提醒无果。一场夏日风暴将木材吹倒，毁坏了丹尼尔妻子的玫瑰花丛，双方发生激烈争吵，友谊出现裂痕。直到冬天，丹尼尔看到马克坐轮椅且腿部打石膏，当晚又下起大雪，次日马克因腿伤无法清理车道，而丹尼尔注意到他家车道仍被积雪覆盖。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“丹尼尔决定帮忙。”可知，第一段可描写丹尼尔决定帮助马克清理车道上的积雪后的一系列行动，以及这一行动引发的反应和带来的影响。 ②由第二段首句内容“马克和他的家人面前出现了一条积雪清理过的车道。”可知，第二段可描写丹尼尔帮马克家清理完车道积雪后，两人之间矛盾化解、重归于好，以及两家关系恢复温暖的过程 2.续写线索：帮忙扫雪——马克的妻子加入——马克看见丹尼尔扫雪——马克道谢——马克道歉——重归于好 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①开始打扫：begin to clear/start to clean ②看：watch/look ③带来：bring over/bring along 情绪类 ①真诚的：sincere/genuine ②抱歉的：sorry/apologetic 【点睛】[高分句型1] Inside, Mark’s wife noticed and quickly joined Daniel with a broom, brushing the steps and path.

B Liu Jiakun, born in Chengdu in 1956, discovered his passion for architecture through his love of drawing. He graduated from the Chongqing Institute of Architecture and Engineering in 1982. Driven by his fearless spirit and artistic enthusiasm, he volunteered to work in Nagqu, Tibet — one of the world’s highest and harshest regions. In 1999, Liu established Jiakun Architects in his hometown of Chengdu. Since then, he has completed over 30 architectural projects across China. Rather than pursuing flashy or showy designs, Liu is known for honoring existing conditions and uplifting the human spirit through his work. One of his most notable projects is the “West Village” in Chengdu, completed in 2015. This five-story courtyard complex integrates cultural, athletic, recreational and commercial spaces. It wraps around an entire city block and features open pathways for cyclists and pedestrians, creating a mini-village that connects people with their environment. Liu’s architectural philosophy emphasizes integration with both social and natural contexts. His design for the Shuijingfang Museum, completed in 2013, exemplifies (例证) this approach. The museum, which showcases the history of Chinese baijiu liquor, carefully preserves the 600-year-old distillery (酿酒厂) site and respects the scale of surrounding low-rise residences. “I want my architecture to coexist with nature while reflecting the character of the local environment,” Liu explained in an interview. When Liu Jiakun was awarded the Pritzker Prize, jury chairman Alejandro Aravena praised him for his thoughtful and consistent approach. “In a world that tends to be dull, he has found a way to build spaces, combining buildings, infrastructure, landscape, and public areas, which are both coherent and inspiring,” Aravena stated. “He approaches each project uniquely, guided by its specific context and requirements, free from aesthetic or stylistic limitations.” Through a body of work marked by sensitivity, integrity, and humanism, Liu Jiakun continues to imagine and shape environments where architecture serves people and place in equal measure. 4. Which of the following words can best describe Liu Jiakun? A. Reliable and persistent. B. Faithful and sympathetic. C. Courageous and talented. D. Generous and innovative. 5. What is Liu Jiakun’s architectural feature? A. Focus on visual effect. B. Pursuit of urbanization. C. Integration with surroundings. D. Combination with foreign styles. 6. What does Aravena mainly talk about? A. Influence of Liu’s designing style. B. Concept of Liu’s distinctive design. C. Journey of Liu’s academic life. D. Overview of Liu’s famous works. 7. Where is this text probably taken from? A. A travel guidebook. B. A biography of an architect. C. A school textbook. D. An architectural magazine. C Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei said last week that artificial intelligence could wipe out half of all entry-level white-collar jobs within five years, making the unemployment rate as high as 20%. Is that true? Humans have experienced several technological disruptions (扰乱) before, and now we have adapted to meet them. AI won’t be any different. There was a time when the elevators in hotels and office buildings were staffed by human operators. Then in the 1930s, elevator companies began installing “robot elevators” with automatic controls, and eventually elevator operators completely disappeared, with no tide of unemployment. Some people see AI as a job killer. However, research shows that broad adoption of AI could boost the country’s productivity growth by 1.5% per year, resulting in higher salaries, higher profits and more savings. Those people do not realize that the savings from increased productivity is recycled back into the economy. This creates new demand and in turn creates more jobs. Some are entirely new, such as “content creator assistant,” and others are existing jobs that are higher in demand because people have more money to spend — for example, personal trainers. Further, there is a great deal of work that only humans can do. Self-driving school buses will still need an adult to watch the kids. As for police, AI robots won’t be arresting criminals anytime soon. It’s a similar story for CEOs, fashion models and flight attendants. Most occupations involve working with other people, with things or with ideas that are too complex for AI to handle alone. Let’s imagine that Mr. Amodei’s forecast turns out to be accurate. Entry-level white-collar jobs account for less than 15% of the U. S. labor force. Wiping out half of them in five years would mean roughly 2.6 million jobs lost per year. That sounds like a lot, but the fact is that about 20 million U. S. workers are laid off every year. In other words, the supposed AI job loss, even if it occurred, would be the equivalent of only about six weeks of normal labor-market disturbance. 8. Why is “elevator operators” mentioned? A. To justify a job. B. To illustrate a point. C. To introduce a topic. D. To make a prediction. 9. What do people viewing AI as a job killer fail to understand? A. Jobs lost will be lost forever. B. Some jobs will never disappear. C. Application of AI creates jobs. D. Jobs involving AI are in demand. 10. What does the last paragraph focus on? A. What effects AI has on the U. S. labor-market. B. What makes Mr. Amodei make the prediction. C. Why Mr. Amodei’s forecast makes little sense. D. Why we should take AI development seriously. 11. What does the author mainly argue for? A It’s time to get ready for AI’s arrival. B. Humans have adapted to AI advances. C. Some jobs are not suitable for AI to do. D. AI is not responsible for unemployment. D How should water flow through fields? What directions and widths are appropriate for ridge (田埂) planting? Where should more fertilizer be applied, and where should less be applied? These once-general farming questions have now become precise, science-guided considerations in China's efforts to protect its valuable farmland. The black soil in the northeastern provinces is often called the “giant panda of cultivated land” due to its scarcity (稀缺) and fertility. Over the years, it has suffered varying degrees of degradation, mainly due to over-exploitation (过度开发) and climate change. Scientists are now developing tailored cultivation techniques and conservation measures to safeguard food security and ecological balance there. To address this, the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), in collaboration with other relevant authorities, launched the “Black Soil Granary” program in 2021. The initiative aims to provide scientific and technological support to control soil degradation and promote modern agricultural practices. So far, scientists have created a comprehensive solution that enables a systematic understanding of the black soil. This includes detailed diagnostics, customized recommendations, and technical treatments. Integrating remote sensing, satellite positioning, and artificial intelligence, researchers have even developed an advanced mobile app that connects with smart agricultural machinery. This app provides farmers with real-time information on soil composition, weather conditions, crop growth, natural disasters, and yield forecasts. It also offers precise farming guidance, including how to fertilize, irrigate, sow seeds, and spray pesticides. The app can generate detailed fertilization maps and transmit them directly to intelligent machines, which then adjust fertilizer quantities on the go, enhancing efficiency while reducing environmental impact. The results have been significant. Fertilizer use has dropped by 5 to 15 percent, while yields have risen by 5.48 to 14.2 percent. On nine pilot farms, grain production has increased by 5 to 22 percent, and soil erosion has been reduced by 70 percent. 12. Why is the black soil called the “giant panda of cultivated land”? A. Because it is vital and dear. B. Because it is rare and fertile. C. Because it is rich and abundant. D. Because it is fragile and endangered. 13. What does the underlined word “degradation” probably mean? A. Lessening. B. Worsening. C. Desertification. D. Pollution. 14. What does the author try to illustrate by listing the figures in the last paragraph? A. Effective guidance. B. Successful preservation. C. Impressive improvements. D. Remarkable policies. 15. What would be the best title for the text? A. Sci-tech methods tailored for black soil B. Natural forces causing black soil decline C. Smart farming apps designed for black soil D. Protection measures boosting black soil yield 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。 Remember the last time you bought a new tech gadget (小型产品) say, a smart phone? You likely bought it because you heard good things about it from friends. It makes sense. Decades of research have shown how positive word-of-mouth can lead consumers to buy a product. ___16___ We found that the more people had heard others talking about their new product, the more worried and anxious they felt about using it. What’s more, the more worried and anxious they felt, the more cautious they were in using their new product. ___17___ Thus these less satisfied consumers were more likely to spread negative word-of-mouth. ___18___ It all comes down to social pressure. As consumers hear more “This app is awesome!!” from others about a new product, it makes them both more likely to buy and more likely to worry that they won’t be able to use the app as well as other people. ___19___ This worry and caution makes them less likely to fully explore and learn the app, making their experience with the app less positive overall. So how can companies maintain the benefits of positive word-of-mouth but avoid the downsides we observe? One possible answer is to avoid emphasizing performance and competence in their advertising. ___20___ Also sharing stories about learning and exploring while using a new product, and even about temporary failures, could lessen the pressure to perform, and help consumers successfully and happily use their new products. A. The caution led to lower levels of satisfaction. B. This will make consumers order more cautiously. C. How will word-of-mouth influence future purchase? D. Will they be able to experience its full awesomeness? E. However, our study identified some potential downsides. F. Why does hearing positive word-of-mouth have downsides? G. Encourage consumers spreading word-of-mouth to do the same. 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） Two years ago while packing up her mother’s possessions after the funeral, Blumberg found three knit sweaters in various stages of construction.

Every summer, the two families held backyard barbecues together, with Mark bringing homemade dumplings and Daniel’s wife preparing her famous cakes. During holidays, they exchanged small but thoughtful gifts. One June, Mark began building a new garden shed to store his tools. He hired a construction team that worked quickly but not carefully. Large wooden boards and sharp nails were piled dangerously close to Daniel’s fence. Daniel noticed that and warned the workers to be more careful, but the warning was brushed off. Then it happened. A sudden summer storm hit the town. Strong winds knocked over the pile of wood. The damage to Daniel’s garden was awful—his wife’s prized rose bushes, which she had been nurturing (培育) for over fifteen years, were crushed and destroyed. She was heartbroken. Failing to comfort her, Daniel stormed over to Mark’s house, demanding an apology and help with the repairs. But Mark, who had just returned from work and was tired and stressed, felt wrongly accused. “It’s not on purpose,” he said sharply. “You can’t blame me for the weather.” “But it wouldn’t have happened if your workers had listened!” Daniel argued Voices were raised, fingers pointed, and neither side was willing to back down. That day, a long-standing friendship cracked under pressure. From then on, they stopped greeting each other and even avoided eye contact. Days passed. Seasons changed. But the cold silence remained. Winter came. One day, Daniel caught a glimpse of Mark and noticed he was in a wheelchair with a cast (石膏) on his leg. Daniel hesitated about going over but his feet remained. A heavy snowstorm quietly arrived that night, blanketing the neighborhood in thick, icy snow. When morning came, driveways were buried, and doors were nearly frozen shut. Men came out of their houses to clear the driveways. By the window Mark looked at his broken leg and sighed, “My responsibility! But now there’s no chance for me to make it.” At noon, Daniel noticed Mark’s driveway was still covered with thick snow. 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。 Daniel decided to help. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ A snow-cleared driveway appeared before Mark and his family. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
