Two strings were missing, and the wood had faded, but it still looked elegant. Though her parents often said, “Focus on math and science, not daydreams,” she felt a connection to the instrument. Each night after homework, she secretly cleaned it with a piece of cloth. At school, Clara borrowed library books on violin repair. She learned to replace strings using spare parts from broken guitars. When she needed better tools, she offered to do the cleaning at Mr. Thompson’s music shop every Tuesday. Finally, the violin came back to life. The kind owner taught her how to maintain the violin and how to play it. For months, her fingertips hardened from pressing the strings. Her progress was slow but continuous. Still, she didn’t tell her parents about her secret practice. The turning point came on a rainy April evening. Hearing a beautiful folk tune coming out of her room repeatedly, her mother stopped outside her door. “Why not join the community concert?” she suggested hesitantly. Clara’s heart raced — she got support. On the performance day, her father joked backstage, “Play loud enough for Grandma to hear,” hiding his nerves. Clara’s performance of Amazing Grace began shakily, but as memories of her restoration efforts and Mr. Thompson’s patience surfaced, she became more confident and played the tune more skillfully. Midway, she noticed her grandmother wiping tears, and her parents holding hands. The applause sounded like summer thunder. Now, the repaired violin has above Clara’s desk. Her parents still remind her to study, but they also save concert notices from newspapers. “Maybe music and math aren’t so different.” her father joked recently. “Both need practice and heart.” 4. Why did Clara hide her violin practice at first? A. She feared damaging the instrument. B. She lacked proper training resources. C. Her parents valued study over music. D. Her grandmother disliked loud sounds. 5. When did Clara’s family begin to change their attitude? A. After she replaced the strings. B. After her dad joked backstage. C. After her mom heard her practice. D. After she performed in the concert. 6. What did the audience think of Clara’s performance? A. Shaky. B. Impressive. C. Sad. D. Imaginative. 7. What does the story mainly tell us? A. Music wins. B. Talent wins. C. Memory lasts. D. Effort counts. C Sustainability is no longer a trend—it’s a necessity. As consumers get more eco-conscious, the beverage (饮料) industry is under pressure to reduce its carbon footprint. Among all drinks, tea is the one that leads the way in sustainability. This ancient drink has an eco-friendly consumption model, from sustainable packaging to minimal processing. Sustainable packaging is becoming a big focus in the tea industry. Companies are moving away from traditional plastic-linked tea bags to designing products that break down into harmless natural materials. Some brands are using plant-based wrappers and填补 tins to reduce waste. Loose leaf tea is one of the best ways to reduce packaging waste as it removes the need for individually wrapped tea bags. Water shortage in agriculture is a growing issue, so how to conserve water is key in tea farming. Tea plants are more water-efficient than coffee, which requires lots of irrigation (灌溉). Many tea farms gather rainwater to reduce dependence on fresh water. Some tea herbs like rooibos and chamomile grow in dry conditions and require minimal irrigation, so they are super eco-friendly. In short, choosing tea over other drinks helps with global water conservation. Moreover, tea is lightweight, so transporting it has a lower environmental impact than heavy bottled drinks. Apart from that, many tea varieties can be sun dried or minimally processed, reducing carbon emissions. Supporting sustainable brands encourages the industry to adopt greener practices. But for ordinary people, choosing tea over other drinks may seem to have a more lasting impact. Whether you enjoy green tea, black tea or refreshing iced blends, your choice makes a difference. Tea is more than just a drink—it’s a step toward a healthier planet. 8. What major change have tea companies made in packaging? A. Focusing on sustainable design. B. Turning to advanced materials. C Increasing plastic-linked packaging. D. Using individually wrapped bags. 9. How does the tea industry contribute to water conservation? A. Tea herbs require more water for growing. B. Tea plants absorb rainwater less efficiently. C. Tea companies introduce eco-friendly equipment. D. Tea farms depend on recycled water for irrigation. 10. What is the author’s purpose in writing the last paragraph? A. To support sustainable tea brands. B. To encourage a tea-drinking lifestyle. C. To analyze the impact of choosing tea. D. To praise green practices in tea farming. 11. Where is the text most probably taken from? A. A scientific report. B. An environmental blog. C. A tea-making magazine. D. An agricultural guidebook. D Limited by fixed schedules and the same materials, traditional classrooms often struggle to address individual learning styles and frequently fail to satisfy different needs for learning. Now, educational tools powered by AI help analyze students’ strengths and weaknesses in real time, enabling educators to offer more personalized guidance. A 2023 UNESCO report revealed that schools adopting AI instructors saw a 34% improvement in math scores globally, signaling the possibility of the technology to bridge educational gaps and offer better learning resources. Initial research in the countryside of India showed a 40% reduction in dropout rates, with teachers reporting improved ability to address individual struggles. Researchers at Stanford University worked on a project and developed an AI system that tracks eye movements and response time during online learning. By studying data from 50,000 students, the AI system identifies the confusion invisible to human teachers. For instance, it discovers students’ brief hesitation in solving equations (方程), and offers targeted instruction. “It’s not about replacing teachers but giving them superhuman insight,” said the project leader, Dr. Emily Zhou. Meanwhile, a 2024 Cambridge study explored generative (生成的) AI’s role in lesson planning. Teachers input teaching goals, and the AI produces content — calibrating vocabulary for non-native speakers or creating personalized physics exercises. In a survey, 78% of educators reported saving five or more hours weekly. However, 62% expressed concerns about overdependence on AI-generated materials that lack sensitivity culturally. Researchers are now training models to recognize regional languages and traditions, aiming to balance educational gaps within different cultures. Experts predict AI could complete 30% of administrative (行政的) tasks by 2026, freeing teachers for teaching and guiding students. Challenges include data privacy and equal access to technology. As Dr. Zhou noted, “The goal isn’t perfect algorithms (算法) or replacing humans but improving human potential through thoughtful tech partnerships.” 12. What was a key-finding of the Stanford University study? A. AI could track students’ response time. B. AI could reduce students’ dropout rates. C. AI could recognize students’ confusion. D. AI could improve students’ math scores. 13. What does the underlined word “calibrating” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. Adjusting accurately. B. Selecting accidentally. C. Replacing completely. D. Memorizing carefully. 14. Why are many people worried about AI-generated materials? A. They lack true emotions. B. They rely on former models. C. They contain regional dialects. D. They ignore cultural differences. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. The Development of AI Technology B. The Risks of AI in Modern Education C. What Challenges AI Brings to Humans D. How AI Changes Teaching and Learning 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。 How to Stop Replaying the Awkward Moment in Your Mind Awkward moments are a common part of life.

Finally, the violin came back to life. The kind owner taught her how to maintain the violin and how to play it. For months, her fingertips hardened from pressing the strings. Her progress was slow but continuous. Still, she didn’t tell her parents about her secret practice. The turning point came on a rainy April evening. Hearing a beautiful folk tune coming out of her room repeatedly, her mother stopped outside her door. “Why not join the community concert?” she suggested hesitantly. Clara’s heart raced — she got support. On the performance day, her father joked backstage, “Play loud enough for Grandma to hear,” hiding his nerves. Clara’s performance of Amazing Grace began shakily, but as memories of her restoration efforts and Mr. Thompson’s patience surfaced, she became more confident and played the tune more skillfully. Midway, she noticed her grandmother wiping tears, and her parents holding hands. The applause sounded like summer thunder. Now, the repaired violin has above Clara’s desk. Her parents still remind her to study, but they also save concert notices from newspapers. “Maybe music and math aren’t so different.” her father joked recently. “Both need practice and heart.” 4. Why did Clara hide her violin practice at first? A She feared damaging the instrument. B. She lacked proper training resources. C. Her parents valued study over music. D. Her grandmother disliked loud sounds. 5. When did Clara’s family begin to change their attitude? A. After she replaced the strings. B. After her dad joked backstage. C.

Her progress was slow but continuous.(在学校，克拉拉借了图书馆关于小提琴修理的书。她学会了用坏吉他的零件更换琴弦。当她需要更好的工具时，她主动提出每周二去汤普森先生的音乐商店打扫卫生。最后，小提琴复活了。好心的主人教她如何保养小提琴，如何演奏。几个月来，她的指尖因按琴弦而变硬了。她的进步缓慢而持续)”以及最后一段““Maybe music and math aren’t so different.” her father joked recently. “Both need practice and heart.”(“也许音乐和数学并没有太大的不同。她父亲最近开玩笑说。“两者都需要练习和用心。”)”可知，这个故事主要告诉我们努力才有回报。故选D。 C Sustainability is no longer a trend—it’s a necessity. As consumers get more eco-conscious, the beverage (饮料) industry is under pressure to reduce its carbon footprint. Among all drinks, tea is the one that leads the way in sustainability. This ancient drink has an eco-friendly consumption model, from sustainable packaging to minimal processing. Sustainable packaging is becoming a big focus in the tea industry. Companies are moving away from traditional plastic-linked tea bags to designing products that break down into harmless natural materials. Some brands are using plant-based wrappers and填补 tins to reduce waste. Loose leaf tea is one of the best ways to reduce packaging waste as it removes the need for individually wrapped tea bags. Water shortage in agriculture is a growing issue, so how to conserve water is key in tea farming. Tea plants are more water-efficient than coffee, which requires lots of irrigation (灌溉). Many tea farms gather rainwater to reduce dependence on fresh water. Some tea herbs like rooibos and chamomile grow in dry conditions and require minimal irrigation, so they are super eco-friendly. In short, choosing tea over other drinks helps with global water conservation. Moreover, tea is lightweight, so transporting it has a lower environmental impact than heavy bottled drinks. Apart from that, many tea varieties can be sun dried or minimally processed, reducing carbon emissions. Supporting sustainable brands encourages the industry to adopt greener practices. But for ordinary people, choosing tea over other drinks may seem to have a more lasting impact. Whether you enjoy green tea, black tea or refreshing iced blends, your choice makes a difference. Tea is more than just a drink—it’s a step toward a healthier planet. 8. What major change have tea companies made in packaging? A. Focusing on sustainable design. B. Turning to advanced materials. C. Increasing plastic-linked packaging. D. Using individually wrapped bags. 9. How does the tea industry contribute to water conservation? A. Tea herbs require more water for growing. B. Tea plants absorb rainwater less efficiently. C. Tea companies introduce eco-friendly equipment. D. Tea farms depend on recycled water for irrigation. 10. What is the author’s purpose in writing the last paragraph? A. To support sustainable tea brands. B. To encourage a tea-drinking lifestyle. C. To analyze the impact of choosing tea. D. To praise green practices in tea farming. 11. Where is the text most probably taken from? A. A scientific report. B. An environmental blog. C. A tea-making magazine. D. An agricultural guidebook. 【答案】8. A 9. D 10. B 11.

Now, educational tools powered by AI help analyze students’ strengths and weaknesses in real time, enabling educators to offer more personalized guidance. A 2023 UNESCO report revealed that schools adopting AI instructors saw a 34% improvement in math scores globally signaling the possibility of the technology to bridge educational gaps and offer better learning resources. Initial research in the countryside of India showed a 40% reduction in dropout rates, with teachers reporting improved ability to address individual struggles. Researchers at Stanford University worked on a project and developed an AI system that tracks eye movements and response time during online learning. By studying data from 50,000 students, the AI system identifies the confusion invisible to human teachers. For instance, it discovers students’ brief hesitation in solving equations (方程), and offers targeted instruction. “It’s not about replacing teachers but giving them superhuman insight,” said the project leader, Dr. Emily Zhou. Meanwhile, a 2024 Cambridge study explored generative (生成的) AI’s role in lesson planning. Teachers input teaching goals, and the AI produces content — calibrating vocabulary for non-native speakers or creating personalized physics exercises. In a survey, 78% of educators reported saving five or more hours weekly. However, 62% expressed concerns about overdependence on AI-generated materials that lack sensitivity culturally. Researchers are now training models to recognize regional languages and traditions, aiming to balance educational gaps within different cultures. Experts predict AI could complete 30% of administrative (行政的) tasks by 2026, freeing teachers for teaching and guiding students. Challenges include data privacy and equal access to technology. As Dr. Zhou noted, “The goal isn’t perfect algorithms (算法) or replacing humans but improving human potential through thoughtful tech partnerships.” 12. What was a key-finding of the Stanford University study? A. AI could track students’ response time. B. AI could reduce students’ dropout rates. C. AI could recognize students’ confusion. D. AI could improve students’ math scores. 13. What does the underlined word “calibrating” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. Adjusting accurately. B. Selecting accidentally. C. Replacing completely. D. Memorizing carefully. 14. Why are many people worried about AI-generated materials? A. They lack true emotions. B. They rely on former models. C. They contain regional dialects. D. They ignore cultural differences. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. The Development of AI Technology B. The Risks of AI in Modern Education C. What Challenges AI Brings to Humans D. How AI Changes Teaching and Learning 【答案】12. C 13. A 14. D 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了人工智能如何改变教学与学习。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“By studying data from 50,000 students, the AI system identifies the confusion invisible to human teachers.(通过研究5万名学生的数据，这个人工智能系统能够识别出人类教师难以察觉的困惑)”可知，斯坦福大学这项研究的关键发现是人工智能能够识别学生的困惑情绪。故选C。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“Teachers input teaching goals, and the AI produces content(教师输入教学目标，然后人工智能生成相关内容)”以及后文“vocabulary for non-native speakers or creating personalized physics exercises.(为非母语者……词汇量或创建个性化的物理练习)”可知，人工智能根据教学目标生成相关内容，其中需要为非母语者仔细调整词汇量，故划线词意思是“仔细调整”。故选A。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Researchers are now training models to recognize regional languages and traditions, aiming to balance educational gaps within different cultures.(研究人员现在正在训练模型识别地区语言和传统，旨在平衡不同文化中的教育差距)”可知，许多人会对人工智能生成的内容感到担忧是因为他们忽视了文化差异。故选D。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“A 2023 UNESCO report revealed that schools adopting AI instructors saw a 34% improvement in math scores globally, signaling the possibility of the technology to bridge educational gaps and offer better learning resources. Initial research in the countryside of India showed a 40% reduction in dropout rates, with teachers reporting improved ability to address individual struggles.(2023年联合国教科文组织的一份报告指出，采用人工智能教师的学校在全球范围内数学成绩提高了34%，这表明该技术有可能缩小教育差距并提供更优质的教育资源。在印度农村地区的初步研究显示，辍学率降低了40%，教师们也表示能够更好地解决学生的个人困难)”结合文章主要说明了AI驱动的教育工具可实时分析学生情况，提供个性化指导，提升成绩、降低辍学率等，虽有挑战，但目标是通过技术协作提升潜力。可知，D选项“人工智能如何改变教学与学习”最符合文章标题。故选D。 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。 How to Stop Replaying the Awkward Moment in Your Mind Awkward moments are a common part of life.

It was my first day at a new high school and the very day of soccer tryouts (选拔赛). Soccer is my life, played soccer, went to soccer games, and watched soccer on television with Mom and Dad. They even got me a magazine about soccer. We left very early in the morning, planning to be at our new home before classes began. If everything had gone perfectly, there would have been time for me to find my new classes, meet people, and even warm up before the tryouts. However, while we were driving to my new home, our car suddenly stopped working on the highway under the hot sun. We waited anxiously for two hours for a rescue, only to spend another two hours arranging for a rental car. The whole time, my heart was pounding with worry, afraid that I would miss the tryouts. Finally, we arrived at the new school. The moment I got out of the cat, I rushed towards the headmaster’s office to report, out of breath. “Oh, Tina I think you’re too late for the tryouts. Coach Turner said they’d end at 3 pm,” said Headmaster Morgan. She glanced up at the clock and shook her head, “They’re almost finished.” Feeling defeated, I bit my lower lip and held back tears. All of a sudden, I saw the latest soccer magazine in my backpack. At that moment, my favorite words from the magazine rang in my head good player never gives up, even when the game seems lost.” 注意： 1. 续写字数应为150词左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 “I’m so sorry, but our car broke down,” I explained to the headmaster. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “Three minutes,” Coach Turner said, rolling a soccer ball toward me. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version： “I m so sorry, but our car broke down”, I explained to the headmaster. I know I’m late, but I’ve been playing soccer my whole life. “This means everything to me. Please give me a chance to show what I can do.” I stared at the headmaster and begged, holding onto a tiny hope. Headmaster Morgan looked hesitant at first, her brows furrowed. But seeing the determination in my eyes, she let out a sigh and picked up the phone. “Coach Turner? There’s a determined girl here.” My heart raced as Headmaster Morgan finally pointed outside. “Go to the field quickly!” “Three minutes,” Coach Turner said, rolling a soccer ball toward me. Without hesitation, I sprang into action. The wind rushed past my ears, and I could only hear the intense beating of my own heart. Sweat dripped down my neck as three defenders charged. I passed right, moved left, and then shot with my left foot. Finally, the ball flew over the goalkeeper’s hands, and went into the net. The coach’s eyes widened in surprise. I held my breath, waiting for his decision. “Welcome to the team,” Coach Turner announced, and I couldn’t help breaking into a huge smile. I knew it was my love for soccer that kept me from giving up. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者一家从圣路易斯搬来，开学日恰逢足球选拔赛。因车在高速抛锚，她迟到险些错过。向校长恳求后获得机会，三分钟内凭实力进球，成功加入球队，她明白是对足球的热爱让自己坚持到底。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“‘很抱歉，我们的车坏了。’我向校长解释道”可知，第一段可描写作者向校长解释并且恳求后获得机会。 ②由第二段首句内容“‘三分钟，’特纳教练边说边把一个足球滚向我”可知，第二段可描写作者三分钟内凭实力进球，成功加入球队，她明白是对足球的热爱让自己坚持到底。 2.续写线索：解释原因——恳求机会——给予机会——进球——拒绝——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①看到：see/catch sight of ②放弃：give up/quit ③展示：show/display 情绪类 ①犹豫的：hesitant/ halting ②惊讶：surprise/amazement 【点睛】[高分句型1] “This means everything to me.
