Growing up in Southern California, where earthquakes often happen, this 18-year-old girl has spent lots of time hiding under her school desk during earthquake drills. Although these ground tremors are slightly shaking, they are often unpredictable. Earthquake early warning systems do exist. One is the ShakeAlert system on the U. S. West Coast. Earthquake monitoring stations in the Shake Alert network detect ground shaking when a quake strikes. Those stations then alert people that the ground under them may soon start to shake. But it’s hard to predict how much the ground will shake at any given place. And people closest to an earthquake’s source are out of luck. They’ll feel the shaking before they can get an alert. Therefore, Vivien built an at-home earthquake sensor. Called the Qube, this device uses a motion sensor called a geophone (地震检波器) to feel tremors that may mark the beginning of a bigger quake. Then, it can warn users by sounding the alarm or sending text alerts. To build it, Vivien bought a machine and watched YouTube videos to learn how to use it. Then she went to work in a spare bathroom . During nine months of testing, Vivien’s Qube detected all earthquakes over magnitude 3 around Los Angeles. The motion data captured by her Qube also matched those from a nearby seismometer (地震仪) in the Southern California Seismic Network. Vivien is now building up a network of Qubes around Los Angeles. “I have eight devices in different homes,” she says. A widespread Qube network could serve as a role similar to that of Shake Alert seismic stations. When one Qube starts to shake, it could alert users across town to an oncoming quake. But unlike earthquake monitoring stations, Qubes are tiny and inexpensive. About the size of a Rubik’s cube, one Qube costs less than $100 to make. So, many more of them could be installed around a city. 36. What does the underlined word “tremors” mean in English? A. Small earthquakes. B. Big earthquakes. C. Huge seismometers. D. Mini geophones. 37. What can we learn about Vivien He when she was little? A. She used to like playing hide and seek in school. B. She was often at risk of experiencing an earthquake. C. She once got injured severely in an earthquake drill. D. She showed no interest in studying natural disasters. 38. Why does the author mention the ShakeAlert system? A. To prove the necessity of early earthquake monitoring stations. B. To compare ShakeAlert with Vivien’s Qube in terms of accuracy. C. To highlight the technological advancements in earthquake detection. D. To show the drawback of existing earthquake early warning systems. 39. What’s the main function of Vivien He’s device? A. Monitoring tremors and sending alarms. B. Collecting data about minor earthquakes. C. Predicting the center of an earthquake. D. Assessing the sizes of earthquakes. 40. What’s implied about the network of Qubes? A. It’s very challenging to build it. B. It has limitations in large cities. C. It can be easily applied at a low cost. D. It just requires eight devices in each place. 【答案】36. A 37. B 38. D 39. A 40. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了美国一名高中女生Vivien He自制的一种地震感应器，它可以感应到一些可能引起更大地震的小地震，从而发出警报来警示用户。 【36题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线词所在句“Although these ground tremors are slightly shaking, they are often unpredictable.(尽管这些地面tremors震动幅度不大，但它们往往难以预测。)”中的“are slightly shaking”可知，这些地震震动幅度比较小，所以应该是一些小地震，tremors表示“小地震”。故选A。 【37题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Growing up in Southern California, where earthquakes often happen, this 18-year-old girl has spent lots of time hiding under her school desk during earthquake drills.(这个 18 岁的女孩在南加州长大，那里经常会发生地震。因此，在地震演练时，她总是会躲到学校的课桌下面。)”可知，Vivien从小就经常经历过地震的危险。故选B。 【38题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“One is the Shake Alert system on the U. S. West Coast. (其中之一是美国西海岸的ShakeAlert系统。)”、“But it’s hard to predict how much the ground will shake at any given place. And people closest to an earthquake’s source are out of luck. They’ll feel the shaking before they can get an alert.(但很难预测在任何特定地点地震的震感会有多强烈。而距离地震震源最近的人们则会倒霉了，因为他们会在接收到警报之前就已经感受到震动了。)”以及第三段中“Therefore, Vivien built an at-home earthquake sensor. Called the Qube, this device uses a motion sensor called a geophone (地震检波器) to feel tremors that may mark the beginning of a bigger quake. (因此，维维安建造了一个家用地震传感器。这种装置被称为Qube，它使用一种称为检波器的运动传感器来感知可能标志着更大地震开始的微小震动。)”对Vivien自制的地震感应器的介绍可知，作者提到ShakeAlert这个震动警报系统是为了展示现有的地震预报系统的缺点和不足之处。故选D。 【39题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Called the Qube, this device uses a motion sensor called a geophone(地震检波器) to feel tremors that may mark the beginning of a bigger quake. Then, it can warn users by sounding the alarm or sending text alerts.(这款名为‘Qube’的设备利用一种名为‘地震检波器’的运动传感器来感知可能预示更大地震发生的微小震动，随后，它会通过发出警报或发送短信通知等方式向用户发出警告。)”可知，Vivien He的设备的主要功能是监测小的地震，并向用户发出警报。故选A。 【40题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“But unlike earthquake monitoring stations, Qubes are tiny and inexpensive. About the size of a Rubik’s cube, one Qube costs less than $100 to make. So, many more of them could be installed around a city.(但与地震监测站不同的是，Qubes体积小巧且成本低廉，其大小约相当于一个魔方，制作一个Qubes的成本还不到100美元，因此，可以在城市周边安装更多的此类探测器。)”可知，Qubes可以很容易地以低成本应用。故选C。 C Because of busy lifestyles and work stress, more Chinese people are now turning to AI tools like DeepSeek to talk about their problems. They share feelings with the chatbot and receive warm advice. This practice, known as “AI therapy(疗愈),” is becoming popular online. But can robots really replace human therapists? Around the world, 45 percent of people who needed mental health care in 2024 did not get it because it was too expensive or there weren't enough doctors, according to Huntington Psychological Services. Daniel Lowd, an associate professor at the University of Oregon, believes AI could help fill this gap. “If people can find some support and ideas by talking to ChatGPT or chatbot, then I think that's wonderful,” Lowd told Newsweek. Li Yong, a doctor at the Jiangsu Province Hospital, agreed with Lowd, saying that AI meets people’ s basic needs for emotional support to a point. However, AI has its limits(限制). Human therapists understand feelings deeply through face-to-face talks and create suitable treatment plans— something robots can't fully copy. Dr. LiuYang, a Beijing-based psychologist(心理学家), notes “An AI might recognize keywords like ‘divorce’ or ‘layoff’, but it cannot find out small emotional shifts in tone or body language”. This point becomes important when dealing with a series of situations, where misunderstandings could be dangerous. Another problem is safety. AI might act like a therapist without proper training or rules. It cannot match the level of responsibility that human therapists have. Experts believe the key to safe AI therapy is strict government control. For example, Wysa, an AI mental health app, follows strict medical standards in the UK. Data privacy appears as another large concern (担忧). Users usually share personal details on AI platforms, yet few companies clearly state how this information is stored or used. In 2024, a major Chinese mental health app faced criticism when users found their chats were being analyzed for advertising algorithms (算法). As AI becomes part of daily life, finding a balance between its benefits and risks is important. While AI offers quick help, human connection remains irreplaceable for serious emotional needs. 41. What makes people turn to “AI therapy”? A. AI therapy is warmer. B. AI tools are free. C. People feel much pressure. D. DeepSeek is popular. 42. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 2 refer to? A. Mental health care. B. The AI tool. C. The medical standard. D. The government control. 43. What is the main idea of paragraph 3? A. AI therapy is nicer and cheaper than human therapists. B. AI robots will soon replace human therapists in hospitals. C. AI can perfectly copy human therapists’ skills and methods. D. AI has limits in understanding deep emotions and safety risks. 44. Why does the writer mention the Wysa app? A. To give an example of safe AI under rules. B. To prove robots can deal with emergencies. C. To show AI is cheaper than human doctors. D. To explain why China needs more therapists. 45. What can we infer from the passage? A. AI therapy will completely replace human therapists. B. AI is useful for basic support but not for serious cases. C. AI can create specialized treatment plans for people. D. Government control is really unnecessary for AI apps. 【答案】41. C 42. A 43. D 44. A 45. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，探讨了AI疗法在心理健康领域的应用，包括其现状、作用、局限性以及面临的问题和解决办法。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Because of busy lifestyles and work stress, more Chinese people are now turning to AI tools like DeepSeek to talk about their problems. (由于忙碌的生活方式和工作压力，现在越来越多的中国人转向像 DeepSeek 这样的人工智能工具来谈论他们的问题)”可知，是人们感受到的巨大压力使得他们求助于 “人工智能疗法”。故选C。 【42题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段“Around the world, 45 percent of people who needed mental health care in 2024 did not get it because it was too expensive or there weren't enough doctors, according to Huntington Psychological Services.(根据亨廷顿心理服务机构的数据，在 2024 年，全世界有 45% 需要心理健康护理的人没有得到护理，因为费用太高或者没有足够的医生)”可知，“it” 指代的是前文提到的 “mental health care”。故选A。 【43题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“However, AI has its limits(限制). Human therapists understand feelings deeply through face-to-face talks and create suitable treatment plans— something robots can't fully copy. Dr. LiuYang, a Beijing-based psychologist( 心理学家), notes “An AI might recognize keywords like ‘divorce’ or ‘layoff’, but it cannot find out small emotional shifts in tone or body language”. This point becomes important when dealing with a series of situations, where misunderstandings could be dangerous.(然而，人工智能有其局限性。人类治疗师通过面对面的交谈深入理解情感，并制定合适的治疗计划，这是机器人无法完全复制的。北京的心理学家刘阳博士指出：“人工智能可能会识别像‘离婚’或‘裁员’这样的关键词，但它无法发现语气或肢体语言中细微的情感变化。” 在处理一系列情况时，这一点变得很重要，因为在这些情况下误解可能是危险的)”可知，第三段主要介绍了人工智能在理解深层情感方面存在局限性，并且存在一定风险。故选D。 【44题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Another problem is safety. AI might act like a therapist without proper training or rules. It cannot match the level of responsibility that human therapists have. Experts believe the key to safe AI therapy is strict government control. For example, Wysa, an AI mental health app, follows strict medical standards in the UK.(另一个问题是安全。人工智能可能在没有适当培训或规则的情况下扮演治疗师的角色。它无法达到人类治疗师所具有的责任水平。专家认为，安全的人工智能疗法的关键是严格的政府控制。例如，英国的人工智能心理健康应用程序 Wysa 遵循严格的医疗标准)”可推知，作者提到 Wysa 应用程序是为了举一个在规则下安全使用的人工智能的例子。故选A。 【45题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“As AI becomes part of daily life, finding a balance between its benefits and risks is important. While AI offers quick help, human connection remains irreplaceable for serious emotional needs.(随着人工智能成为日常生活的一部分，在其好处和风险之间找到平衡很重要。虽然人工智能提供了快速的帮助，但对于严重的情感需求，人与人之间的联系仍然是不可替代的)”可知，人工智能对于基本的情感支持是有用的，但对于严重的情况是不够的，无法替代人类。故选B。 非选择题 (满分25分) 第四部分：写作(共两节，满分25分) 第一节：阅读表达 (共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读短文，用英语回答问题 As a little boy, there was nothing I liked beer than Sunday afternoons at my grandfathers farm, surrounded by miles of winding (蜿蜒) stonewalls in western Pennsylvania, which provided a lot of fun for a city kid like me. I can still remember my first visit to the farm. I'd wanted to be allowed to climb the stonewalls. But my parents would never approve, because the walls were old, and some stones were missing. I was still eager to climb it, so I asked for their permission. “Can I climb the stonewalls?” I asked nervously. At this moment, my parents sill didn't agree. Before I left the room sadly, my grandfather said, “Let the boy climb the stonewalls. He has to learn to do things for himself.” It took me about two hours to climb those stonewalls. Later I met with my grandfather to tell him about my adventure. I’ll never forget what he said. “Mike, you made this day a special day just by being yourself. Always remember, there's only one person in this whole world like you, and I like you exactly as you are.” Today I host the television program Mister Roger’s Neighborhood, which is liked by millions of children throughout America. There have been changes over the years, but one thing remains the same: my message to children at the end of every visit, “There's only one person in this whole world like you, and people can like you exactly as you are.” 46. Where is Mike’s grandfather's farm? (no more than 5 words) 47. What does the underlined word “approve” in Paragraph 2 mean in English? (no more than 1 word) 48. How long did the author spend climbing the stonewalls? (no more than 5 words) 49. According to the passage, who would like to watch the author's program? (no more than 10words) 50. What does the author want to tell us through this story? (no more than 20 words) 【答案】46. In western Pennsylvania. 47. Agree. 48. About two hours. 49. Millions of children throughout America. 50. There's only one person in this whole world like you, and people can like you exactly as you are. 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要记叙了作者第一次去爷爷家农场想要爬石墙，但是父母不允许，在爷爷的劝说下，父母允许作者爬石墙。通过爬石墙这件事，爷爷告诉作者要做自己。如今，作者正主持儿童节目，深受孩子喜欢，作者在每回节目结束前都告诉孩子做自己。 【46题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“there was nothing I liked beer than Sunday afternoons at my grandfathers farm, surrounded by miles of winding (蜿蜒) stonewalls in western Pennsylvania”(没有什么事情比得上在周日下午在爷爷家农场喝啤酒。爷爷家农场在宾夕法尼亚西部被几英里的蜿蜒的石墙围着。)可知，爷爷家农场在宾夕法尼亚西部，故填In western Pennsylvania。 【47题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“I was still eager to climb it, so I asked for their permission.”(我仍然想去爬石墙，因此我请求父母允许。)可知，父母不同意作者爬石墙，所以“But my parents would never approve,”表示我的父母决不允许，故横线单词表示“同意”，故填Agree。 【48题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“It took me about two hours to climb those stonewalls.”(爬这些石墙花费我大约两个小时。)可知，爬石墙花费作者大约两个小时，故填About two hours。 【49题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Today I host the television program Mister Roger’s Neighborhood, which is liked by millions of children throughout America.”(如今，我主持一档电视节目叫做Mister Roger’s Neighborhood，这个节目被成千上百万美国孩子喜欢。)可知，成千上百万美国孩子喜欢作者的节目，故填Millions of children throughout America。 【50题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“Always remember, there's only one person in this whole world like you, and I like you exactly as you are.”(要记住，在这个世界上只有一个人像你，我喜欢你是因为你就是你。)和最后一段“There's only one person in this whole world like you, and people can like you exactly as you are.”(在这个世界上只有一个人像你，人们喜欢你是因为你就是你。)可知，作者通过爬石墙这件事，从爷爷那得到的启示就是做自己，并把这样一个道理告诉自己的观众，所以作者通过这个事情想告诉我们要做自己，故填There's only one person in this whole world like you, and people can like you exactly as you are。 第二节：书面表达 (满分15分) 51. 假设你是李津。市图书馆将于下周举办一场中国书画展，你想邀请正在天津交流学习的美国朋友 Chris周六上午十点一起去参观。请按以下提示写一封电子邮件： Activity go to Chinese painting and calligraphy exhibition Time 10 a. m.

Which part of a website is the passage probably chosen from? A. Education. B. Art. C. Business. D. Literature. B Vivien He is a senior at a high school in Rolling Hills Estates. Growing up in Southern California, where earthquakes often happen, this 18-year-old girl has spent lots of time hiding under her school desk during earthquake drills. Although these ground tremors are slightly shaking, they are often unpredictable. Earthquake early warning systems do exist. One is the ShakeAlert system on the U. S. West Coast. Earthquake monitoring stations in the Shake Alert network detect ground shaking when a quake strikes. Those stations then alert people that the ground under them may soon start to shake. But it’s hard to predict how much the ground will shake at any given place. And people closest to an earthquake’s source are out of luck. They’ll feel the shaking before they can get an alert. Therefore, Vivien built an at-home earthquake sensor. Called the Qube, this device uses a motion sensor called a geophone (地震检波器) to feel tremors that may mark the beginning of a bigger quake. Then, it can warn users by sounding the alarm or sending text alerts. To build it, Vivien bought a machine and watched YouTube videos to learn how to use it. Then she went to work in a spare bathroom . During nine months of testing, Vivien’s Qube detected all earthquakes over magnitude 3 around Los Angeles. The motion data captured by her Qube also matched those from a nearby seismometer (地震仪) in the Southern California Seismic Network. Vivien is now building up a network of Qubes around Los Angeles. “I have eight devices in different homes,” she says. A widespread Qube network could serve as a role similar to that of Shake Alert seismic stations. When one Qube starts to shake, it could alert users across town to an oncoming quake. But unlike earthquake monitoring stations, Qubes are tiny and inexpensive. About the size of a Rubik’s cube, one Qube costs less than $100 to make. So, many more of them could be installed around a city. 36. What does the underlined word “tremors” mean in English? A. Small earthquakes. B. Big earthquakes. C. Huge seismometers. D. Mini geophones. 37. What can we learn about Vivien He when she was little? A. She used to like playing hide and seek in school. B. She was often at risk of experiencing an earthquake. C. She once got injured severely in an earthquake drill. D. She showed no interest in studying natural disasters. 38. Why does the author mention the ShakeAlert system? A. To prove the necessity of early earthquake monitoring stations. B. To compare ShakeAlert with Vivien’s Qube in terms of accuracy. C. To highlight the technological advancements in earthquake detection. D. To show the drawback of existing earthquake early warning systems. 39 What’s the main function of Vivien He’s device? A. Monitoring tremors and sending alarms. B. Collecting data about minor earthquakes. C. Predicting the center of an earthquake. D. Assessing the sizes of earthquakes. 40. What’s implied about the network of Qubes? A. It’s very challenging to build it. B. It has limitations in large cities. C. It can be easily applied at a low cost. D. It just requires eight devices in each place. C Because of busy lifestyles and work stress, more Chinese people are now turning to AI tools like DeepSeek to talk about their problems. They share feelings with the chatbot and receive warm advice. This practice, known as “AI therapy(疗愈),” is becoming popular online. But can robots really replace human therapists? Around the world, 45 percent of people who needed mental health care in 2024 did not get it because it was too expensive or there weren't enough doctors, according to Huntington Psychological Services. Daniel Lowd, an associate professor at the University of Oregon, believes AI could help fill this gap. “If people can find some support and ideas by talking to ChatGPT or chatbot, then I think that's wonderful,” Lowd told Newsweek. Li Yong, a doctor at the Jiangsu Province Hospital, agreed with Lowd, saying that AI meets people’ s basic needs for emotional support to a point. However, AI has its limits(限制).

Dr. LiuYang, a Beijing-based psychologist(心理学家), notes “An AI might recognize keywords like ‘divorce’ or ‘layoff’, but it cannot find out small emotional shifts in tone or body language”. This point becomes important when dealing with a series of situations, where misunderstandings could be dangerous. Another problem is safety.

As AI becomes part of daily life, finding a balance between its benefits and risks is important. While AI offers quick help, human connection remains irreplaceable for serious emotional needs. 41. What makes people turn to “AI therapy”? A. AI therapy is warmer. B. AI tools are free. C. People feel much pressure. D. DeepSeek is popular. 42. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 2 refer to? A. Mental health care. B. The AI tool. C. The medical standard. D. The government control. 43. What is the main idea of paragraph 3? A. AI therapy is nicer and cheaper than human therapists. B. AI robots will soon replace human therapists in hospitals. C. AI can perfectly copy human therapists’ skills and methods. D. AI has limits in understanding deep emotions and safety risks. 44. Why does the writer mention the Wysa app? A. To give an example of safe AI under rules. B. To prove robots can deal with emergencies. C. To show AI is cheaper than human doctors. D. To explain why China needs more therapists. 45. What can we infer from the passage? A. AI therapy will completely replace human therapists. B. AI is useful for basic support but not for serious cases. C. AI can create specialized treatment plans for people. D. Government control is really unnecessary for AI apps. 非选择题 (满分25分) 第四部分：写作(共两节，满分25分) 第一节：阅读表达 (共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读短文，用英语回答问题 As a little boy, there was nothing I liked beer than Sunday afternoons at my grandfathers farm, surrounded by miles of winding (蜿蜒) stonewalls in western Pennsylvania, which provided a lot of fun for a city kid like me.
