The lawn at her home near Christchurch, New Zealand, is patchy (斑驳的) and has been sunburned in different parts. Elliott doesn’t look after her lawn. “Mother Nature does the watering here,” she says. Her lawn has now won the World’s Ugliest Lawn Competition, which began in 2023 in Gotland, Sweden, a year after the success of the competition “Gotland’s Ugliest Lawn”. Gotland is very short of water, and water shortage is a growing problem around the world. According to UNESCO (联合国教科文组织), as many as 2.4 billion people could be influenced by this problem by 2050. The competition was created as a way to encourage people to save water and have a green lawn. “Her lawn may not win beauty competitions, but it wins hearts because it teaches us to care for nature,” the organizers said of Elliott’s lawn. The town Elliott lives in doesn’t get much rain, but she says that when it rains, her lawn changes a lot. She adds that a lot of birds and other animals visit her lawn, drinking and cleaning themselves in its rainwater pool. Mimmi Gibson, who helps organize the competition, says it was difficult to pick a winner this year: “I mean, they’re all so bad,” she says. She hopes the competition will help people think differently about the small things they can do to save water. “It’s not just a fun thing. It’s actually saving water. I think people like that” she says. 6. Why is Leisa Elliott’s lawn the “ugliest”? A. It grows too fast. B. It has no grass at all. C. It is too small in size. D. It looks patchy and dry. 7.

C It might be a radio song or one you heard someone else singing, and you can’t get it out of your head. This is known as an earworm (耳虫), a tune that is hard to forget. Most of us experience them all the time. It can be very annoying, but there are some ways that might help us stop thinking about that tune. One is to listen to the whole song that you have in your head. Elizabeth from a music website said that if you’ve just got a small part of the song keeping playing in your head, listening to the whole song might help to get out of that earworm. Others suggest listening to a different song, or even just trying to think about a different song. “It’s almost impossible to have two songs in your head at the same time,” music expert Kelly Jakubowski said, “because it’s just too much for our brains!” Writing on Harvard’s Health Blog, Srini Pillay says you shouldn’t try too hard to get it out of your head because this could actually make things worse. Just quietly accept that you have an earworm and that it will soon be gone. If those things don’t work, Jakubowski, from Durham University, says you could chew gum (嚼口香糖). This keeps your mouth busy and may “kill” the earworm. However, Jakubowski adds that you shouldn’t try to chew to the beat of the song because you might end up having an even harder time trying to get it out of your head! 11. What is an earworm? A. A person who loves singing. B. A real animal that lives in your ear. C. A loud noise that can hurt your ears. D. A song that you can’t stop thinking about. 12. How can listening to the whole song help to end an earworm? A. It makes you enjoy the song. B. It helps you forget the song. C. It stops the small part in your head. D. It makes the earworm quieter. 13. What happens if you fight an earworm too hard? A. The earworm keeps longer. B. Your ears feel less tired. C. The song goes away faster. D. You have more earworms. 14. Why does chewing gum may kill earworms? A. It relaxes your mouth. B. It changes the song’s beat. C. It makes your mouth busy. D. It makes you become hungry. 15. What is the writing purpose of the passage? A. To tell which things are earworms. B. To introduce how to stop earworms. C. To show where earworms come from. D. To explain why earworms are bad for us. D Whether it’s fighting with brothers and sisters or being shouted at, family arguments aren’t nice. However, families arguing is common and finding ways to work it out is important. Psychologist (心理学家) Dr. Emma Morris says that most families argue sometimes. “It’s quite normal,” she explains. “You may argue more with your family than with other people because you feel safe to show your emotions, and they will still love you.” Parents and carers are often the ones who set rules, which can cause disagreements. Brothers and sisters might fight over what is fair. Sometimes adults argue too, which can be upset. Families argue for many reasons. Maybe it’s something small, like losing a game or feeling stressed about friendships or schoolwork. Adults might shout angrily because they’re worrying about a problem at work or a family member who gets ill. “Sometimes these pressures make us have more arguments than usual.” Dr Morris says. Hearing people you love get angry with each other can be difficult but there are ways to look after yourself. The mental health organization, Young Minds, suggests taking a break when an argument starts. You can leave the room or get out for some fresh air. When you come back, you may see things differently. Write your feelings in a diary to help you understand an argument or speak to someone you trust. Talking it through can make you feel better. “Like anything, it needs practice to be good at dealing with arguments,” Morris says. Remember, it is not your mistake if other people argue. If you find it upset and don’t know what to do, you can ask someone you trust for help. 16. What does Dr. Emma Morris say about arguing with family? A. It is a sign of a bad relationship. B. It should never happen in a family. C. It is normal and shows you feel safe. D. It means your family doesn’t love you. 17. Which is a possible reason of family arguments according to the passage? A. Not having enough toys. B. Watching too much TV. C. Playing many computer games. D. Worrying about school or work. 18. What do we know about stress and family arguments? A. Stress has no relation to family arguments. B Stress helps families solve arguments faster. C. Stress makes families argue more than usual. D. Stress makes families argue less than usual. 19. What does Young Minds suggest people do first when meeting an argument? A. Shout back loudly. B. Stay in the room and listen. C. Take a break and leave. D. Join the argument quickly. 20. What does the writer want to tell us in the last paragraph? A. You should never talk about your feelings. B. It takes time to learn how to work arguments out. C. Children should always take no notice of arguments. D. Only adults need to work on dealing with arguments. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。选项中有一项为多余选项。 In children’s books, endings are usually happy.

But sometimes AI may provide information that isn’t real. We call it “AI hallucination (幻觉)”. Often, AI hallucinations are just strange. For example, journalist Satyen K Bordoloi once asked AI to tell him the world record for crossing the English Channel (英吉利海峡) “on foot”—something impossible. But AI replied that someone set the record in 2020, with a time of 14 hours and 51 minutes. However, some AI hallucinations can cause real problems. In 2023, two lawyers were fined (罚款) $5,000, because they used AI to write a legal paper. The lawyers didn’t check if the cases were real. They just trusted the AI, and that was a big mistake. So why does this happen? Two information science students, Anna Choi and Katelyn, explain that AI works by reading a lot of information and it tries to find rules in that information. How AI answers questions just depends on these rules. When it doesn’t have an answer or fails to know what to do—or doesn’t understand the question—it will try to use data (数据) from similar situations to make up some information, so sometimes the final answer isn’t real or true. AI can be helpful for research, especially when you’re looking for ideas for starting a topic. However, it’s important to check what it tells you. For example, ask where the information came from. Remember: we should use our own thinking and not just believe AI is always right! AI Hallucination: When AI Makes Up Facts Introduction Sometimes the ____51____ from AI may be not true. Examples and problems Satyen K Bordoloi: AI made up an unreal world ____52____. Two lawyers: AI made up false cases. ____53____ AI ____54____ a lot of information and finds rules in the information. AI depends on these rules to answer the questions. Advice We must examine the information AI tells us. We should think by ____55____, instead of only trusting AI is always right. 第四部分 写作（满分25分） 56. 假设你是李华，请阅读这封来自于笔友Mark的邮件，并根据邮件内容给予回复。 Dear Li Hua, How’s it going?

This is known as an earworm (耳虫), a tune that is hard to forget. Most of us experience them all the time. It can be very annoying, but there are some ways that might help us stop thinking about that tune. One is to listen to the whole song that you have in your head. Elizabeth from a music website said that if you’ve just got a small part of the song keeping playing in your head, listening to the whole song might help to get out of that earworm. Others suggest listening to a different song, or even just trying to think about a different song. “It’s almost impossible to have two songs in your head at the same time,” music expert Kelly Jakubowski said, “because it’s just too much for our brains!” Writing on Harvard’s Health Blog, Srini Pillay says you shouldn’t try too hard to get it out of your head because this could actually make things worse. Just quietly accept that you have an earworm and that it will soon be gone. If those things don’t work, Jakubowski, from Durham University, says you could chew gum (嚼口香糖). This keeps your mouth busy and may “kill” the earworm. However, Jakubowski adds that you shouldn’t try to chew to the beat of the song because you might end up having an even harder time trying to get it out of your head! 11. What is an earworm? A. A person who loves singing. B. A real animal that lives in your ear. C. A loud noise that can hurt your ears. D. A song that you can’t stop thinking about. 12. How can listening to the whole song help to end an earworm? A. It makes you enjoy the song. B. It helps you forget the song. C. It stops the small part in your head. D. It makes the earworm quieter. 13. What happens if you fight an earworm too hard? A. The earworm keeps longer. B. Your ears feel less tired. C. The song goes away faster. D. You have more earworms. 14. Why does chewing gum may kill earworms? A. It relaxes your mouth. B. It changes the song’s beat. C. It makes your mouth busy. D. It makes you become hungry. 15. What is the writing purpose of the passage? A. To tell which things are earworms. B. To introduce how to stop earworms. C. To show where earworms come from. D. To explain why earworms are bad for us. 【答案】11. D 12. C 13. A 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了一个常见的心理现象——“耳虫”，即脑中反复出现的旋律或歌曲。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据“This is known as an earworm (耳虫), a tune that is hard to forget.”可知，耳虫是一种难以忘记的曲调。故选D。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据“if you’ve just got a small part of the song keeping playing in your head, listening to the whole song might help to get out of that earworm”可知，如果只是在脑中循环小片段，听完整首歌能帮助停止这个片段的反复。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据“you shouldn’t try too hard to get it out of your head because this could actually make things worse”可知，不要太努力试图摆脱耳虫，否则可能让耳虫持续时间更长。故选A。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据“…you could chew gum (嚼口香糖). This keeps your mouth busy and may ‘kill’ the earworm.”可知，嘴巴忙于嚼口香糖会分散注意力，减轻耳虫的困扰。故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据“It can be very annoying, but there are some ways that might help us stop thinking about that tune.”并通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了什么是耳虫及如何停止耳虫，重点在于解决办法的介绍。故选B。 D Whether it’s fighting with brothers and sisters or being shouted at, family arguments aren’t nice. However, families arguing is common and finding ways to work it out is important. Psychologist (心理学家) Dr. Emma Morris says that most families argue sometimes. “It’s quite normal,” she explains. “You may argue more with your family than with other people because you feel safe to show your emotions, and they will still love you.” Parents and carers are often the ones who set rules, which can cause disagreements. Brothers and sisters might fight over what is fair. Sometimes adults argue too, which can be upset. Families argue for many reasons. Maybe it’s something small, like losing a game or feeling stressed about friendships or schoolwork. Adults might shout angrily because they’re worrying about a problem at work or a family member who gets ill. “Sometimes these pressures make us have more arguments than usual.” Dr Morris says. Hearing people you love get angry with each other can be difficult but there are ways to look after yourself. The mental health organization, Young Minds, suggests taking a break when an argument starts. You can leave the room or get out for some fresh air. When you come back, you may see things differently. Write your feelings in a diary to help you understand an argument or speak to someone you trust. Talking it through can make you feel better. “Like anything, it needs practice to be good at dealing with arguments,” Morris says. Remember, it is not your mistake if other people argue. If you find it upset and don’t know what to do, you can ask someone you trust for help. 16. What does Dr. Emma Morris say about arguing with family? A. It is a sign of a bad relationship. B. It should never happen in a family. C. It is normal and shows you feel safe. D. It means your family doesn’t love you. 17. Which is a possible reason of family arguments according to the passage? A. Not having enough toys. B. Watching too much TV. C. Playing many computer games. D. Worrying about school or work. 18. What do we know about stress and family arguments? A. Stress has no relation to family arguments. B. Stress helps families solve arguments faster. C. Stress makes families argue more than usual. D. Stress makes families argue less than usual. 19. What does Young Minds suggest people do first when meeting an argument? A. Shout back loudly. B. Stay in the room and listen. C. Take a break and leave. D. Join the argument quickly. 20. What does the writer want to tell us in the last paragraph? A. You should never talk about your feelings. B. It takes time to learn how to work arguments out. C. Children should always take no notice of arguments. D. Only adults need to work on dealing with arguments. 【答案】16. C 17. D 18. C 19. C 20. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讨论了家庭争吵的普遍性、原因及应对方法。 【16题详解】 细节理解题。根据“‘It’s quite normal,’ she explains. ‘You may argue more with your family than with other people because you feel safe to show your emotions,’”可知，Dr. Emma Morris认为争吵很正常且情感安全。故选C。 【17题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Maybe it’s something small, like losing a game or feeling stressed about friendships or schoolwork.”及“Adults might shout angrily because they’re worrying about a problem at work or a family member who gets ill.”可知，家庭吵架的原因可能是担心学校或工作。故选D。 【18题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Sometimes these pressures make us have more arguments than usual.”可知，压力会让我们比平时有更多的争论。故选C。 【19题详解】 细节理解题。根据“The mental health organization, Young Minds, suggests taking a break when an argument starts. You can leave the room or get out for some fresh air.”可知，心理健康组织YoungMinds建议在争吵开始时休息一下然后离开房间。故选C。 【20题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Like anything, it needs practice to be good at dealing with arguments,”可知，说明需要时间去处理家庭争吵。故选B。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。选项中有一项为多余选项。 In children’s books, endings are usually happy. Although people in the books often face dangers or challenges, everything always ends well. ____21____ Some people think children’s books should have happy endings. ____22____ And we can read happy stories to get away from the real world, which may be sad and hard to understand. If someone starts to enjoy reading but feels unhappy at the end of a book, they might not want to read more. If your first reading experiences are full of happy feelings, you’ll want to keep reading. ____23____ The story can still be interesting and exciting even if you know it will end well. But there’s another point. Sad endings can help us get used to real life. Happy endings are usually too simple, and life isn’t always happy—it has both good and hard times. ____24____ This helps us deal with such feelings in real life. Some experts also say feeling sad in stories can make us better understanding others’ emotions, which is called “empathy”(同情). ____25____ Also, happy endings might miss the thrill of not knowing what will happen. Sad stories can be more exciting because you wonder how things will end! What’s your opinion? Should children’s books always end happily? A. It will make us help our friends who are feeling sad. B.

But sometimes AI may provide information that isn’t real. We call it “AI hallucination (幻觉)”. Often, AI hallucinations are just strange. For example, journalist Satyen K Bordoloi once asked AI to tell him the world record for crossing the English Channel (英吉利海峡) “on foot”—something impossible. But AI replied that someone set the record in 2020, with a time of 14 hours and 51 minutes. However, some AI hallucinations can cause real problems. In 2023, two lawyers were fined (罚款) $5,000, because they used AI to write a legal paper. The lawyers didn’t check if the cases were real. They just trusted the AI, and that was a big mistake. So why does this happen? Two information science students, Anna Choi and Katelyn, explain that AI works by reading a lot of information and it tries to find rules in that information. How AI answers questions just depends on these rules. When it doesn’t have an answer or fails to know what to do—or doesn’t understand the question—it will try to use data (数据) from similar situations to make up some information, so sometimes the final answer isn’t real or true. AI can be helpful for research, especially when you’re looking for ideas for starting a topic. However, it’s important to check what it tells you. For example, ask where the information came from. Remember: we should use our own thinking and not just believe AI is always right! AI Hallucination: When AI Makes Up Facts Introduction Sometimes the ____51____ from AI may be not true Examples and problems Satyen K Bordoloi: AI made up an unreal world ____52____. Two lawyers: AI made up false cases. ____53____ AI ____54____ a lot of information and finds rules in the information. AI depends on these rules to answer the questions. Advice We must examine the information AI tells us. We should think by ____55____, instead of only trusting AI is always right. 【答案】51. information 52. record 53. Reasons##Causes 54. reads 55. ourselves 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了人工智能幻觉现象及其产生原因，并给出了使用建议。 【51题详解】 根据“Sometimes AI may provide information that isn’t real.”可知，AI提供的信息可能不真实。故填information。 【52题详解】 根据“AI replied that someone set the record in 2020”可知，AI编造了一个不真实的纪录。故填record。 【53题详解】 根据“So why does this happen?”及后文对AI工作原理的解释可知，此处是在解释AI产生幻觉（提供不实信息）的原因。故填Reasons/Causes。 【54题详解】 根据“AI works by reading a lot of information”可知，AI通过“阅读”大量信息并寻找规律来工作，句子时态为一般现在时，主语AI是第三人称单数，谓语动词用三单形式reads，故填reads。 【55题详解】 根据“Remember: we should use our own thinking and not just believe AI is always right!”可知，我们应该独立思考，by ourselves“靠我们自己”，而不是只信任AI。故填ourselves。 第四部分 写作（满分25分） 56. 假设你是李华，请阅读这封来自于笔友Mark的邮件，并根据邮件内容给予回复。 Dear Li Hua, How’s it going?
