Here are four science research competitions designed for high schoolers. Breakthrough Junior Challenge The Breakthrough Junior Challenge tasks students with creating a short two-minute video in which they explain a complex scientific concept and demonstrate how it works in practice. Awards include a $250, 000 college scholarship, and a $50, 000 award to a teacher of the winner’s choosing. Eye on the Future Teen Video Contest Participants are tasked with creating a video between 30 seconds and three minutes long, either on their own or in teams of up to three members. Winners receive a paid trip to the National Institute of Health in Bethesda, Maryland. Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair This competition is the world’s largest international pre-college STEM competition. Students showcase independent research and compete across 22 categories for awards ranging from $500 to $75, 000. This is not a group-based competition — individual students sigh up for local school science fairs before advancing to upper-level competitions. American Academy of Neurology Neuroscience Research Prize This competition challenges students to investigate problems regarding the brain or nervous system. It is only open to individual students — group projects are excluded. Winners receive a monetary prize and the chance to present their projects at the AAN Annual Meeting. 1. What is the aim of the competitions? A. To fuel the passion for scientific research. B. To ensure admission to the dream college. C. To train to be a candidate for ideal colleges. D. To select outstanding talents from high school. 2. What do the first two competitions have in common? A. Winners will receive a paid trip. B. Creation of a video is a must. C. The participants need to pull together. D. The winner’s teacher is also presented an award. 3. Which competition might enable participants to become a doctor? A. Breakthrough Junior Challenge B. Eye on the Future Teen Video Contest C. Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair D. American Academy of Neurology Neuroscience Research Prize B An exhibition of paintings of ancient Chinese characters was held on July 13 in Addis Ababa, the capital of Ethiopia, with the aim of promoting people-to-people and cultural exchanges. Based on the classic I Ching or The Book of Changes (《易经》), the display brought together the art of Ethiopia’s Dawit Muluneh and famous calligrapher Wu Jiuyi, who produced examples of calligraphy on the spot. Speaking at the event, its organizer Gossa Oda said the exhibition was an opportunity to showcase cultural commonalities and shared knowledge between the two countries. “In organizing this exhibition, I wanted to communicate the ancient mystery of I Ching, which helps improve connectivity between Ethiopia and China and promote their shared future. A shared future starts from shared knowledge,” said Oda, who is also the owner of the Medemer Africa Art and Sculpture Space, where the 64 paintings are housed. Oda said such an exhibition would strengthen people-to-people ties and cultural exchanges, stressing the importance of knowledge and civilizations for human development. The paintings describe the 64 divinatory (占卜的) symbols found in I Ching, which represent the day-to-day interaction between man and nature. “They are meant to share knowledge and feelings with visitors, and descriptions are written in Chinese, English and Amharic.” said Muluneh, who painted all 64 paintings in a year. He said the exhibition could be considered as a stepping-stone to promote cultural exchange and create mutual situations for common development between the people of China and Ethiopia. “The backgrounds of the paintings make use of Ethiopian styles and express the ideas of heaven, harvest, and relief, among others,” said Muluneh, who drew similarities and absorbed essential parts from the traditional arts of both countries. In an interview, Wu said that he was taken by surprise when he saw an Ethiopian artist painting Chinese characters. The exhibition attracted members of the Chinese community in Addis Ababa, Ethiopian artists and painters, and school children. 4. The exhibition held in Addis Ababa aims to ______. A. promote Ethiopian art globally B. introduce the skills of Chinese calligraphy C. celebrate the cooperation between Dawit Muluneh and Wu Jiuyi D. enhance cultural communication between Ethiopia and China 5. What is Gossa Oda’s attitude towards the exhibition? A. Supportive. B. Negative. C. Unconcerned. D. Skeptical. 6. What does the underlined word “stepping-stone” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. A cultural symbol of paintings. B. A tool that can assist people in walking. C. An initial effort leading to further progress. D. A special stone used in Ethiopian art history. 7. In which column of a magazine can we read this passage? A. Technology Today. B. Cultural Fusion. C. Language Study. D. Literature Salon. C When it comes to poverty relief efforts in the developing world, small is the new big. Consider Juncao, a group of wild grasses that have become one of China’s most significant contributions to the world’s sustainable development, with multiple uses being shared by people in 105 countries to help tackle food issues and desertification (沙漠化). Juncao, which literally means “the herbal plant for growing edible mushrooms”, has worked miracles for Chinese scientists who are cultivating it as a substrate (培养基) for growing edible and medicinal mushrooms or as food for livestock, as well as using it as green barrier to stop sand hills from advancing. China introduced the grass and its cultivation technology to Papua New Guinea more than 20 years ago to help local farmers raise livestock and grow edible mushrooms. “We hope we will help double the agricultural production capacity and farmers’ incomes in Papua New Guinea. We offer training at home and abroad, send our experts to teach local farmers, and we do serve them heart and soul as our brothers,” said Lin Zhanxi, a 79-year-old professor in Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University and the chief scientist for grass development. It’s been 35 years since Lin selected the grass species to replace wood as a substrate for growing mushrooms in East China’s Fujian Province, and this has saved a vast coverage of natural forest there. Through the years, Lin has developed 45 varieties of Juncao, which can be used to cultivate 55 mushroom species. Despite his age, Lin has often traveled afar to help people in developing countries learn about the benefits of this agricultural technology. “The first time I went to Papua New Guinea in 1997, I realized how people there were struggling with extreme poverty,” Lin said. At that time, a tribe chief knelt down before Lin to thank him for bringing the technique to save them from starvation. To his astonishment, the tribe people celebrated the whole night. Members of the team were so touched that they decided to stay and help the people shake off poverty. In a land without electricity or modern devices, the team members worked there for eight years to teach locals how to cultivate and use the grass. 8. What is the main idea of Paragraph 2? A. When Juncao is discovered. B. What Juncao looks like. C. What Juncao is applied to. D. How Juncao evolves. 9. Why Juncao is introduced to Papua New Guinea? A. To relief its poverty. B. To develop new varieties. C. To tackle the issue of drought. D. To promote corn-growing technology. 10. How did people in Fujian grow mushrooms before Lin brought Juncao there? A. By adding more fertilizer. B. By using the wood as a substrate. C. By covering mushrooms with leaves. D. By taking chopped-up wild grass as a substrate. 11. Which of the following words can best describe Lin Zhanxi? A. Honest and strict. B. Generous and humorous. C. Confident and independent. D. Devoted and helpful. D Jason M. Allen was almost too nervous to enter his first art competition. Now, his award-winning image is stirring debates about whether art can be generated by a computer, and what, exactly, it means to be an artist. In August 2022, Allen, a 39-year-old game designer who lives in Pueblo West, Colorado, won first place in the “digital arts/digitally-operated photography” category at the Colorado State Fair Fine Arts Competition. His winning image, titled Théatre D’opéra Spatial, was made with Midjourney—an artificial intelligence system that can produce detailed images when fed written prompts (提示). Allen’s winning image looks like a bright cross between a classic and modern painting. It’s one of three such images he entered in the competition. Allen posted excitedly about his win on Midjourney’s Discord server on August 25, along with pictures of his three entries; it spread quickly on Twitter days later, with many artists feeling angry about Allen’s win because of his use of AI to create the image. “He just ‘pressed a few buttons to make a digital art piece’,” one Twitter user wrote. “We’re watching the death of art unfold before our eyes.” However, to get the final three images he entered in the competition, Allen said, he took over 80 hours. First, he played around with phrasing that led Midjourney to generate images of women in nice dresses and space helmets. Over time, with slight adjustments to his written prompts, he created 900 repeating processes of what led to his final three images. He gave the final touch to those three images in Photoshop. Then he ran the images through another software program called Gigapixel AI that can improve resolution (分辨率) and had the images printed at a local print shop. Allen is glad that the debate over whether AI can be used to make art is getting so much attention. “Rather than hating the technology or the people behind it, we need to recognize it’s a powerful tool and use it for good so we can all move forward,” Allen said. 12. What do we know about Theatre D’opera Spatial? A. Its beauty is widely accepted. B. Its creation is an easy process. C. It shows the death of traditional art. D. It has caused a lot of arguments. 13. What did Allen do to create his entries? A. He searched for smart written prompts. B. He edited his final images in Photoshop. C. He fed Midjourney with famous paintings. D. He developed the software named Gigapixel. 14. What is Allen’s attitude to the debate over Al-created art? A. Worried. B. Uncaring. C. Positive. D. Annoyed. 15. What might be the best title for the text? A. AI Beats Out Human Artists in the Art Field B AI Won an Art Contest and Artists Are Angry C. An Artist Wins State Fair Art Contest and Laughs D. The Artist From Pueblo West Is Defending His Work. 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。 We never get our childhood and adolescence back once we’re adults!

His house was not far from ours, and I would visit him often going home after school. No matter how rotten I had been, I could tell Grandpa anything. My secrets were safe. Whenever there was a problem, he gave me the tools to fix it. I knew I would always find the best answer from him. He always understood. He loved me. I remember a time when a bunch of us were playing baseball in the field behind Mrs. Ferguson’s house. I hit one pitch just right and… slam! It was a home run that soared high and away, and ended up breaking Old Lady Ferguson’s kitchen window! We all ran! Walking home, my best friend, Tom, asked, "How will she ever know who did it? She’s blinder than a bat!” He had a point. I was afraid that Mrs. Ferguson would stay mad at me, so I ran. I didn’t know what she would do. I tried to calm down. However, my stomach was in knots. On the way home, I imagined that she was a mean witch (女巫) chasing me, and the further way I ran, the larger she grew… until finally she towered over the whole town, seeing my every move with an evil eye. Thoughts rushed through my mind. Would Mrs. Ferguson stay mad at me? Would she call police? Worse still, would she tell my parents. I couldn’t even imagine the disappointment on Mom and Dad’s face. They were hoping I would act honestly and in a responsible way. I decided to stop by Grandpa’s. I felt ashamed. I wanted to hide. I wanted to knock my head against a tree a thousand times and make the world just go away — as if punishing myself could undo things. But inside me a voice said: “I would tell everything to Grandpa.” “I was wrong,” I told him, with my head down. He must have known something was up by the expression on my face. He knew we had been warned many times about the dangers of playing where we shouldn’t. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Para 1: But he just listened while I continued talking. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Para 2: Hearing the decision, grandpa smiled. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 仁寿一中北校区高2023级第四学期3月月考 英语试卷 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 注意，听力部分答题时请先将答案标在试卷上，听力部分结束前你将有两分钟的时间将答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节(共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。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.

Based on the classic I Ching or The Book of Changes (《易经》), the display brought together the art of Ethiopia’s Dawit Muluneh and famous calligrapher Wu Jiuyi, who produced examples of calligraphy on the spot. Speaking at the event, its organizer Gossa Oda said the exhibition was an opportunity to showcase cultural commonalities and shared knowledge between the two countries. “In organizing this exhibition, I wanted to communicate the ancient mystery of I Ching, which helps improve connectivity between Ethiopia and China and promote their shared future. A shared future starts from shared knowledge,” said Oda, who is also the owner of the Medemer Africa Art and Sculpture Space, where the 64 paintings are housed. Oda said such an exhibition would strengthen people-to-people ties and cultural exchanges, stressing the importance of knowledge and civilizations for human development. The paintings describe the 64 divinatory (占卜的) symbols found in I Ching, which represent the day-to-day interaction between man and nature. “They are meant to share knowledge and feelings with visitors, and descriptions are written in Chinese, English and Amharic.” said Muluneh, who painted all 64 paintings in a year. He said the exhibition could be considered as a stepping-stone to promote cultural exchange and create mutual situations for common development between the people of China and Ethiopia. “The backgrounds of the paintings make use of Ethiopian styles and express the ideas of heaven, harvest, and relief, among others,” said Muluneh, who drew similarities and absorbed essential parts from the traditional arts of both countries. In an interview, Wu said that he was taken by surprise when he saw an Ethiopian artist painting Chinese characters. The exhibition attracted members of the Chinese community in Addis Ababa, Ethiopian artists and painters, and school children. 4. The exhibition held in Addis Ababa aims to ______.

B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了在埃塞俄比亚首都亚的斯亚贝巴举办的一场中国古代文字画展，旨在促进人与人之间的交流和文化交流。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“An exhibition of paintings of ancient Chinese characters was held on July 13 in Addis Ababa, the capital of Ethiopia, with the aim of promoting people-to-people and cultural exchanges.(7月13日，一场中国古文字绘画展在埃塞俄比亚首都亚的斯亚贝巴举行，旨在促进人文交流与文化交往。)”可知，一场中国古文字绘画展在埃塞俄比亚首都亚的斯亚贝巴举行，目的是促进人文交流与文化交往。结合后文可知，这里主要指的是埃塞俄比亚和中国之间的交流。故选D。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段““In organizing this exhibition, I wanted to communicate the ancient mystery of I Ching, which helps improve connectivity between Ethiopia and China and promote their shared future. A shared future starts from shared knowledge,” said Oda, who is also the owner of the Medemer Africa Art and Sculpture Space, where the 64 paintings are housed.( Oda也是梅德默非洲艺术雕塑空间的负责人，这 64幅画作就陈列在该空间内。他说：“在组织这场展览时，我希望传达《易经》的古老奥秘，它有助于加强埃塞俄比亚与中国之间的联系，推动两国的共同未来。共同未来始于共享知识。”)”以及第三段“Oda said such an exhibition would strengthen people-to-people ties and cultural exchanges, stressing the importance of knowledge and civilizations for human development.( Oda表示，这样的展览将加强人文纽带和文化交流，并强调了知识和文明对人类发展的重要性。)”可推测，Oda认为展览能带来诸多积极的作用，对加强两国联系和促进共同未来有帮助，这表明他对展览持支持的态度。故选A。 【6题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线单词所在句“He said the exhibition could be considered as a stepping-stone to promote cultural exchange and create mutual situations for common development between the people of China and Ethiopia.(他还称，此次展览可被视为促进中埃两国人民文化交流、为共同发展创造互利局面的……。)”可知，他说此次展览可被视为促进中埃两国人民文化交流、为共同发展创造互利局面的一个“stepping - stone”。根据语境可知，展览可以作为一个开端，促进中埃文化交流并为共同发展创造有利局面，也就是起到了一个引导进一步发展的初步作用。选项C“An initial effort leading to further progress”意为“通向进一步发展的初步努力”与此相符。故选C。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章内容可知，文章主要讲述了在埃塞俄比亚首都亚的斯亚贝巴举办的一场以中国《易经》为蓝本的中国古文字绘画展，此次展览将埃塞俄比亚艺术家的作品与中国书法家的作品相结合，旨在促进中埃两国的人文交流与文化交往，展示了两国文化的共性和共享知识。文章重点描述了中埃两国通过展览进行文化交流，体现了两国文化的相互结合与交流，符合文化融合的主题，该文章适合出现在“文化融合”栏目。故选B。 C When it comes to poverty relief efforts in the developing world, small is the new big. Consider Juncao, a group of wild grasses that have become one of China’s most significant contributions to the world’s sustainable development, with multiple uses being shared by people in 105 countries to help tackle food issues and desertification (沙漠化). Juncao which literally means “the herbal plant for growing edible mushrooms”, has worked miracles for Chinese scientists who are cultivating it as a substrate (培养基) for growing edible and medicinal mushrooms or as food for livestock, as well as using it as green barrier to stop sand hills from advancing. China introduced the grass and its cultivation technology to Papua New Guinea more than 20 years ago to help local farmers raise livestock and grow edible mushrooms. “We hope we will help double the agricultural production capacity and farmers’ incomes in Papua New Guinea. We offer training at home and abroad, send our experts to teach local farmers, and we do serve them heart and soul as our brothers,” said Lin Zhanxi, a 79-year-old professor in Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University and the chief scientist for grass development. It’s been 35 years since Lin selected the grass species to replace wood as a substrate for growing mushrooms in East China’s Fujian Province, and this has saved a vast coverage of natural forest there. Through the years, Lin has developed 45 varieties of Juncao, which can be used to cultivate 55 mushroom species. Despite his age, Lin has often traveled afar to help people in developing countries learn about the benefits of this agricultural technology. “The first time I went to Papua New Guinea in 1997, I realized how people there were struggling with extreme poverty,” Lin said. At that time, a tribe chief knelt down before Lin to thank him for bringing the technique to save them from starvation. To his astonishment, the tribe people celebrated the whole night. Members of the team were so touched that they decided to stay and help the people shake off poverty. In a land without electricity or modern devices, the team members worked there for eight years to teach locals how to cultivate and use the grass. 8 What is the main idea of Paragraph 2? A. When Juncao is discovered. B. What Juncao looks like. C. What Juncao is applied to. D. How Juncao evolves. 9. Why Juncao is introduced to Papua New Guinea? A. To relief its poverty. B. To develop new varieties. C. To tackle the issue of drought. D. To promote corn-growing technology. 10. How did people in Fujian grow mushrooms before Lin brought Juncao there? A. By adding more fertilizer. B. By using the wood as a substrate. C. By covering mushrooms with leaves. D. By taking chopped-up wild grass as a substrate. 11. Which of the following words can best describe Lin Zhanxi? A. Honest and strict. B. Generous and humorous. C. Confident and independent. D. Devoted and helpful. 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了菌草对于沙漠化，食物温饱等方面有十分明显的重要作用，文章还介绍了林占熺去Papua New Guinea，帮助当地人改进农业技术。 【8题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“Juncao, which literally means “the herbal plant for growing edible mushrooms”, has worked miracles for Chinese scientists who are cultivating it as a substrate (培养基) for growing edible and medicinal mushrooms or as food for livestock, as well as using it as green barrier to stop sand hills from advancing.(菌草，字面意思是“种植食用菌的草本植物”，为中国科学家创造了奇迹，他们将其作为种植食用菌和药用蘑菇的基质或牲畜的食物，并将其用作阻止沙丘前进的绿色屏障)”可知，第二段主要讲述了菌草的用途。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“We hope we will help double the agricultural production capacity and farmers’ incomes in Papua New Guinea.(我们希望我们能帮助巴布亚新几内亚将农业生产能力和农民收入提高一倍)”可知，引进菌草主要目的是缓解农民的贫困。故选A。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“It’s been 35 years since Lin selected the grass species to replace wood as a substrate for growing mushrooms in East China’s Fujian Province, and this has saved a vast coverage of natural forest there.(35年前，林在中国东部的福建省选择了草种来代替木材作为种植蘑菇的基质，这挽救了那里大片的天然林)”可知，在福建，曾经的农民是用木材作为种植蘑菇的基材的。故选B。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段““We hope we will help double the agricultural production capacity and farmers’ incomes in Papua New Guinea. We offer training at home and abroad, send our experts to teach local farmers, and we do serve them heart and soul as our brothers,” said Lin Zhanxi, a 79-year-old professor in Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University and the chief scientist for grass development.(“我们希望我们将帮助巴布亚新几内亚的农业生产能力和农民收入翻一番。我们在国内和国外提供培训，派我们的专家去教当地农民，我们全心全意地为他们服务，就像我们的兄弟一样，”福建农林大学79岁的教授、草业发展首席科学家林占熺说)”以及最后一段“Despite his age, Lin has often traveled afar to help people in developing countries learn about the benefits of this agricultural technology.(尽管年事已高，林还是经常远道而来，帮助发展中国家的人们了解这种农业技术的好处)”可知，林占熺有奉献精神且乐于助人。故选D。 D Jason M. Allen was almost too nervous to enter his first art competition. Now, his award-winning image is stirring debates about whether art can be generated by a computer, and what, exactly, it means to be an artist. In August 2022, Allen, a 39-year-old game designer who lives in Pueblo West, Colorado, won first place in the “digital arts/digitally-operated photography” category at the Colorado State Fair Fine Arts Competition. His winning image, titled Théatre D’opéra Spatial, was made with Midjourney—an artificial intelligence system that can produce detailed images when fed written prompts (提示). Allen’s winning image looks like a bright cross between a classic and modern painting. It’s one of three such images he entered in the competition. Allen posted excitedly about his win on Midjourney’s Discord server on August 25, along with pictures of his three entries; it spread quickly on Twitter days later, with many artists feeling angry about Allen’s win because of his use of AI to create the image. “He just ‘pressed a few buttons to make a digital art piece’,” one Twitter user wrote. “We’re watching the death of art unfold before our eyes.” However, to get the final three images he entered in the competition, Allen said, he took over 80 hours. First, he played around with phrasing that led Midjourney to generate images of women in nice dresses and space helmets. Over time, with slight adjustments to his written prompts, he created 900 repeating processes of what led to his final three images. He gave the final touch to those three images in Photoshop. Then he ran the images through another software program called Gigapixel AI that can improve resolution (分辨率) and had the images printed at a local print shop. Allen is glad that the debate over whether AI can be used to make art is getting so much attention. “Rather than hating the technology or the people behind it, we need to recognize it’s a powerful tool and use it for good so we can all move forward,” Allen said. 12. What do we know about Theatre D’opera Spatial? A. Its beauty is widely accepted. B. Its creation is an easy process. C It shows the death of traditional art. D. It has caused a lot of arguments. 13. What did Allen do to create his entries? A. He searched for smart written prompts. B. He edited his final images in Photoshop. C. He fed Midjourney with famous paintings. D. He developed the software named Gigapixel. 14. What is Allen’s attitude to the debate over Al-created art? A. Worried. B. Uncaring. C. Positive. D. Annoyed. 15. What might be the best title for the text? A. AI Beats Out Human Artists in the Art Field B. AI Won an Art Contest and Artists Are Angry C. An Artist Wins State Fair Art Contest and Laughs D. The Artist From Pueblo West Is Defending His Work. 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了美国科罗拉多州博览会艺术比赛中，AI画作拿一等奖惹怒人类艺术家，并引发热议。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“it spread quickly on Twitter days later, with many artists feeling angry about Allen’s win because of his use of AI to create the image. “He just ‘pressed a few buttons to make a digital art piece’,” one Twitter user wrote. “We’re watching the death of art unfold before our eyes.”(几天后，这张照片在推特上迅速传播，许多艺术家对艾伦的获奖感到愤怒，因为他使用了人工智能来创作这张图像。一位推特用户写道：“他只是‘按了几个按钮就做成了一件数字艺术品’。”“我们正在目睹艺术的死亡在我们眼前展开。”)”可推断，《太空歌剧院》这部AI作品引起了许多争论。故选D。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“He gave the final touch to those three images in Photoshop. (他在Photoshop中对这三张图片进行了最后的润色。)”可知，艾伦创作他的参赛作品时，用Photoshop编辑他的最终图像。故选B。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Allen is glad that the debate over whether AI can be used to make art is getting so much attention. “Rather than hating the technology or the people behind it, we need to recognize it’s a powerful tool and use it for good so we can all move forward,” Allen said. (艾伦很高兴关于人工智能能否用于艺术创作的争论得到了如此多的关注。艾伦说：“我们不应该憎恨这项技术或它背后的人，我们需要认识到它是一个强大的工具，并把它用于善，这样我们就可以向前迈进。”)”可推断，艾伦对关于他创作的艺术的争论持积极的态度。故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段的“In August 2022, Allen, a 39-year-old game designer who lives in Pueblo West, Colorado, won first place in the “digital arts/digitally-operated photography” category at the Colorado State Fair Fine Arts Competition.(2022年8月，生活在科罗拉多州普韦布洛西部的39岁游戏设计师艾伦在科罗拉多州博览会美术比赛中获得了“数字艺术/数字操作摄影”类别的第一名)”和第三段“it spread quickly on Twitter days later, with many artists feeling angry about Allen’s win because of his use of AI to create the image. (几天后，这张照片在推特上迅速传播，许多艺术家对艾伦的获奖感到愤怒，因为他使用了人工智能来创作这张图像。)”及全文可知，文章主要介绍了美国科罗拉多州博览会艺术比赛中，AI画作拿一等奖惹怒人类艺术家，并引发热议。所以“AI Won an Art Contest and Artists Are Angry(AI赢得了艺术比赛，惹怒人类艺术家)”作为文章标题最为合适。故选B。 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。 We never get our childhood and adolescence back once we’re adults!

His house was not far from ours, and I would visit him often going home after school. No matter how rotten I had been, I could tell Grandpa anything. My secrets were safe. Whenever there was a problem, he gave me the tools to fix it. I knew I would always find the best answer from him. He always understood. He loved me. I remember a time when a bunch of us were playing baseball in the field behind Mrs. Ferguson’s house. I hit one pitch just right and… slam! It was a home run that soared high and away, and ended up breaking Old Lady Ferguson’s kitchen window! We all ran! Walking home, my best friend, Tom, asked, "How will she ever know who did it? She’s blinder than a bat!” He had a point. I was afraid that Mrs. Ferguson would stay mad at me, so I ran. I didn’t know what she would do. I tried to calm down. However, my stomach was in knots. On the way home, I imagined that she was a mean witch (女巫) chasing me, and the further way I ran, the larger she grew… until finally she towered over the whole town, seeing my every move with an evil eye. Thoughts rushed through my mind. Would Mrs. Ferguson stay mad at me? Would she call police? Worse still, would she tell my parents. I couldn’t even imagine the disappointment on Mom and Dad’s face. They were hoping I would act honestly and in a responsible way. I decided to stop by Grandpa’s. I felt ashamed. I wanted to hide. I wanted to knock my head against a tree a thousand times and make the world just go away — as if punishing myself could undo things. But inside me a voice said: “I would tell everything to Grandpa.” “I was wrong,” I told him, with my head down. He must have known something was up by the expression on my face. He knew we had been warned many times about the dangers of playing where we shouldn’t. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Para 1: But he just listened while I continued talking. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Para 2: Hearing the decision, grandpa smiled. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 But he just listened while I continued talking. “I was wrong. I hate myself for what I did”, I told him, with my head down. I didn’t know what to do to make things right. I had been afraid that Mrs. Ferguson would stay mad at me. Finally my grandpa said, “What would you do if you were her?”After a while, I replied, “One solution is to tell her that I am sorry and offer to fix her window.” Hearing the decision, grandpa smiled. “Doing what is right is not always easy,” he said, handing me the phone, “I am proud of you.” He did not make me do it. It was always my choice. As it turned out, Mrs. Ferguson was very kind and we even became really close friends. “Admitting what you are not proud of is the hardest thing,” said Grandpa. “Choosing to be honest makes others trust and respect you.” 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了作者在打碎了Mrs. Ferguson的厨房玻璃后，心理挣扎着要不要向她道歉，随后向自己的祖父需求帮助，祖父给了作者非常诚恳和耐心的指引和建议。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“但是，在我继续描述着事情的时候，他只是在听着”可知，该段落可以描写作者在做错事之后的内心挣扎和祖父引导作者做正确的事。 ②由第二段首句内容“听到这个决定，爷爷笑了。”可知，该段落可以描写在祖父的引导下，作者决定做正确的事。 2. 续写线索：向祖父诉说——内心挣扎——祖父的引导——作者决定做正确的事——向Mrs. Ferguson道歉 3. 词汇激活 行为类： 修理：fix/repair 承认：admit/acknowledge 信任：trust/believe in 情绪类： 害怕的：afraid/worried/scared 生气的：mad/angry 友善的：kind/friendly 【点睛】【高分句型1】I had been afraid that Mrs. Ferguson would stay mad at me.
