The zero-waste workshop known as Trash Kitchen gives people hands-on experience in the recycling process. People take plastic waste, then soften it and shape it into something of value directly in front of them within two hours. It aims to recycle waste material into goods for people to buy. Arthur Huang, who started the company that holds the workshop, said: “What we are trying to show in the Trash Kitchen is to let you see, feel, and touch within minutes how this process can actually work without secondary pollution.” Besides, consumers can also take part in the workshop. It allows them to get first-hand experience, so that they would think twice about producing trash and pay more attention to reusable goods. Arthur Huang believes that if everyone can do their best to use less plastic and recycle it, that will make a big difference to the environment. 第二部分 阅读(共两节，满分 50 分) 第一节 (共 15 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 37.5 分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Contrary to popular belief, winter is actually a good time to travel. Below, you’ll find recommendations for the best places to visit in winter in the USA. Sequoia (美洲杉) National Park, California This park is famous for its giant sequoia trees. And though it’s impressive to walk among 250-foot sequoias, snowshoeing or cross-country skiing through Giant Forest Grove when the towering trees are dusted with snow is pure magic. Accommodation: The centrally located Visalia Marriott is just 40 minutes from the park gate. Charleston, South Carolina Start your weekend getaway on a historic carriage ride downtown in cold winter. Clip-clop past the city’s churches, see where they stored all the gunpowder back in the 1700s and learn about Charleston’s past. Accommodation: Located in the city's historic heart, the Charleston Place hotel features plush rooms and excellent dining. Keystone, Colorado Ski report website On the Snow rates it the top resort for families, thanks to free parking; ski-in, ski-out lodgings; a kids-ski-free program; and beginner terrain (地形). Accommodation: Keystone Lodge and Spa has cozy mountain-inspired rooms and lofts, a heated outdoor pool and hot tub. Park City, Utah Located just 40 minutes from Salt Lake City the largest ski resort in the United States is known for its light, dry snow, sunny skies and variety of terrain.

They offer carriage rides at weekends. D. They offer a range of cold-weather fun. 【答案】21. C 22. C 23. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章推荐了几个美国冬季最佳旅游景点。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据Charleston, South Carolina部分的“Start your weekend getaway on a historic carriage ride downtown in cold winter. Clip-clop past the city’s churches, see where they stored all the gunpowder back in the 1700s and learn about Charleston’s past.(在寒冷的冬天乘坐历史悠久的马车开始你的周末之旅。咔嗒咔嗒地经过这座城市的教堂，看看他们在18世纪储存火药的地方，了解查尔斯顿的过去。)”可知，游客在Charleston可以探索这座城市的历史。故选C。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据Keystone, Colorado部分“Ski report website On the Snow rates it the top resort for families, thanks to free parking; ski-in, ski-out lodgings; a kids-ski-free program; and beginner terrain. (滑雪报告网站On the Snow将其评为最适合家庭的度假胜地，这要归功于免费停车；住宿；儿童免费滑雪项目；初学者地形。)”可知，Keystone给孩子一个免费滑雪的机会。故选C。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Contrary to popular belief, winter is actually a good time to travel. Below, you’ll find recommendations for the best places to visit in winter in the USA.(与普遍的看法相反，冬天实际上是旅行的好时机。下面，你会发现美国冬季最佳旅游景点的推荐。)”可推知，这四个地方的共同之处在于它们提供了一系列寒冷天气的乐趣。故选D。 B When Charlotte Liebling was in college, she volunteered at a store that sold secondhand goods. She observed that people brought items to donate, including stuffed toys (毛绒玩具). Liebling could tell that the toys held great emotional value for their owners. So she felt sad when the toys were sold very cheaply, put in the dog-toy section, or thrown away. One night, when Liebling got home from work, she started doing some research. She realized that it wasn’t happening only in her town. Worldwide, she learned, millions of toys end up in landfills every year. “If we can change the view that the stuffed toys lose their value once they’ve been loved,” she recalls, “then we can show people that they have so much left in them, and give them to others.” That’s how the Loved Before, a toy-adoption agency, began. The process starts when someone donates a soft toy. The original owner writes down the name of the toy and a story about it. Liebling and her team believe that sharing what makes the toy unique helps potential new owners understand its value. Next, the toy is cleaned, photographed, and packaged with its name and story. Every Monday, toys are posted for adoption on the Loved Before website. The company makes a charitable donation of at least half of the profit from the sale of each toy. Since its creation in 2019, Loved Before has sold more than 50,000 stuffed toys. “But the company’s goal is more than just trying to save some toys from landfills,” Liebling says. “We are trying to change people’s views on a really wide level.” She explains that Loved Before hopes to teach kids “about the value of loving secondhand things again, in the hope that it will go far beyond the idea of teddy bears”. Loved Before is writing a new chapter in the life cycle of toys. 24. Why did Liebling feel sad about secondhand stuffed toys as a volunteer? A. They were not appreciated. B. They were priced quite high. C. They had no emotional value. D. Their owners couldn’t find them. 25. What does Liebling think is the key to saving used stuffed toys? A. Encouraging people to claim their lost toys. B. Persuading the original owners to keep them. C. Preventing them from being thrown into landfills. D. Making people realize their value can be passed on. 26. How does Loved Before highlight its toys? A. By offering appealing discounts. B. By including the toys’ history. C. By making up stories for them. D. By changing the toys’ appearance. 27. Which of the following can best describe Liebling? A. Ambitious and critical. B. Intelligent and firm. C. Innovative and caring. D. Adaptable and modest. 【答案】24. A 25. D 26. B 27. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Charlotte Liebling创办了一个名为“Loved Before”的玩具领养机构，旨在改变人们对二手毛绒玩具的看法，并希望它们能够被重新赋予价值并传递给其他人。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“She observed that people brought items to donate, including stuffed toys (毛绒玩具). Liebling could tell that the toys held great emotional value for their owners. So she felt sad when the toys were sold very cheaply, put in the dog-toy section, or thrown away.(她注意到人们会带来一些物品捐赠，包括毛绒玩具。利布林能够看出这些玩具对它们的主人来说有很大的情感价值。因此，当这些玩具被卖得很便宜、放在狗玩具区或被扔掉时，她感到很难过。)”可知，作为志愿者的Liebling对二手填充玩具感到难过是因为它们没有得到赏识。故选A。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段““If we can change the view that the stuffed toys lose their value once they’ve been loved,” she recalls, “then we can show people that they have so much left in them, and give them to others.” That’s how the Loved Before, a toy-adoption agency, began.(她回忆道，“如果我们能改变毛绒玩具一旦被爱过就失去价值的看法，那么我们就可以向人们展示它们还剩下很多价值，并将它们送给别人。” 这就是玩具领养机构“Loved Before”的由来。)”可知，Liebling认为拯救二手毛绒玩具的关键是让人们意识到它们的价值可以传递下去，而不是仅仅停留在被丢弃或填埋的层面。故选D。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Next, the toy is cleaned, photographed, and packaged with its name and story. Every Monday, toys are posted for adoption on the Loved Before website. ( 接下来，玩具会被清洗、拍照，并附上它的名字和故事进行包装。每周一，这些玩具会在“Loved Before”网站上发布供人领养。)”可知， Loved Before通过展示玩具的历史和故事来突出其特色，让潜在的新主人了解这些玩具的独特之处和背后的故事。故选B。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章内容，Charlotte Liebling观察到人们捐赠的物品，包括毛绒玩具，对它们的主人来说有很大的情感价值，但她发现这些玩具被卖得很便宜、放在狗玩具区或被扔掉时，她感到很难过。于是她决定采取行动，创办了Loved Before这个玩具领养机构，致力于改变人们对二手毛绒玩具的看法，并希望它们能够被重新赋予价值并传递给其他人。这表明Liebling是一个有创新精神和关心他人的人，因此C选项“Innovative and caring”最能描述她。故选C。 C Artificial intelligence models can trick each other into disobeying their creators and providing banned instructions for making drugs, or even building a bomb, suggesting that preventing such AI “jailbreaks” is more difficult than it seems. Many publicly available large language models (LLMs), such as ChatGPT, have hard-coded rules that aim to prevent them from exhibiting racial or sexual discrimination, or answering questions with illegal or problematic answers — things they have learned from humans via training data. But that hasn’t stopped people from finding carefully designed instructions that block these protections, known as “jailbreaks”, making AI models disobey the rules. Now, Arush Tagade at Leap Laboratories and his co-workers have found a process of jailbreaks. They found that they could simply instruct one LLM to convince other models to adopt a persona (角色), which is able to answer questions the base model has been programmed to refuse. This process is called “persona modulation (调节)”. Tagade says this approach works because much of the training data consumed by large models comes from online conversations, and the models learn to act in certain ways in response to different inputs. By having the right conversation with a model, it is possible to make it adopt a particular persona, causing it to act differently. There is also an idea in AI circles, one yet to be proven, that creating lots of rules for an AI to prevent it displaying unwanted behaviour can accidentally create a blueprint for a model to act that way. This potentially leaves the AI easy to be tricked into taking on an evil persona. “If you’re forcing your model to be good persona, it somewhat understands what a bad persona is,” says Tagade. Yinzhen Li at Imperial College London says it is worrying how current models can be misused, but developers need to weigh such risks with the potential benefits of LLMs. “Like drugs, they also have side effects that need to be controlled,” she says. 28. What does the AI jailbreak refer to? A. The technique to break restrictions of AI models. B. The initiative to set hard-coded rules for AI models. C. The capability of AI models improving themselves. D. The process of AI models learning new information. 29. What can we know about the persona modulation? A. It can help AI models understand emotions. B. It prevents AI learning via online conversations. C. It can make AI models adopt a particular persona. D. It forces AI models to follow only good personas. 30. What is Yinzhen Li’s attitude towards LLMs? A. Unclear. B. Cautious. C. Approving. D. Negative. 31. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. LLMs: Illegal Learning Models B. LLMs: The Latest Advancement C. AI Jailbreaks: A New Challenge D. AI Jailbreaks: A Perfect Approach 【答案】28. A 29. C 30. B 31. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了人工智能领域面临的一项新挑战——AI“越狱”。 【28题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段“Artificial intelligence models can trick each other into disobeying their creators and providing banned instructions for making drugs, or even building a bomb, suggesting that preventing such AI “jailbreaks” is more difficult than it seems. (人工智能模型可以欺骗对方不服从其创造者，提供被禁止的制造毒品的指令，甚至制造炸弹，这表明防止这种AI‘jailbreaks’比看起来要困难得多。)”以及第二段“Many publicly available large language models (LLMs), such as ChatGPT, have hard-coded rules that aim to prevent them from exhibiting racial or sexual discrimination, or answering questions with illegal or problematic answers — things they have learned from humans via training data. But that hasn’t stopped people from finding carefully designed instructions that block these protections, known as “jailbreaks”, making AI models disobey the rules. (许多公开可用的大型语言模型（LLMs），如ChatGPT，都有硬编码规则，旨在防止它们表现出种族或性别歧视，或者用非法或有问题的答案回答问题——这些都是它们通过训练数据从人类那里学到的。但这并没有阻止人们找到精心设计的指令，阻止这些保护措施，即所谓的‘jailbreaks’，使人工智能模型不遵守规则。)”可知，许多公开可用的大型语言模型都有硬编码规则阻止非法、歧视等内容，但是人工智能模型可以突破保护限制措施，互相欺骗对方不服从其创造者，提供被禁止的指令；由此可知，AI“jailbreak”指的是打破人工智能模型限制，使人工智能模型违反规则的技术。故选A。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Tagade says this approach works because much of the training data consumed by large models comes from online conversations, and the models learn to act in certain ways in response to different inputs. By having the right conversation with a model, it is possible to make it adopt a particular persona, causing it to act differently. (Tagade表示，这种方法之所以有效，是因为大型模型消耗的大部分训练数据来自在线对话，模型学会以特定的方式响应不同的输入。通过与模型进行正确的对话，可以使其采用特定的角色，从而使其采取不同的行动。)”可知，“角色调节（the persona modulation）”可以通过与人工智能模型进行正确的对话让其采用特定的角色，采取不同的行动。故选C。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Yinzhen Li at Imperial College London says it is worrying how current models can be misused, but developers need to weigh such risks with the potential benefits of LLMs. “Like drugs, they also have side effects that need to be controlled,” she says. (伦敦帝国理工学院的Yinzhen Li表示，目前的模型可能会被滥用，这令人担忧，但开发者需要权衡这些风险与LLM的潜在好处。‘就像药物一样，它们也有需要控制的副作用，’她说。)”可知，Yinzhen Li认为，目前的模型可能会被滥用，但是开发者需要权衡这些风险与LLMs的潜在好处，由此可知，Yinzhen Li对LLMs持谨慎的态度。故选B。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Artificial intelligence models can trick each other into disobeying their creators and providing banned instructions for making drugs, or even building a bomb, suggesting that preventing such AI “jailbreaks” is more difficult than it seems. (人工智能模型可以欺骗对方不服从其创造者，提供被禁止的制造毒品的指令，甚至制造炸弹，这表明防止这种人工智能“越狱”比看起来更困难。)”以及下文内容可知本文介绍了人工智能“越狱”、研究者们发现的一个“越狱”过程——“角色调节”以及专家对其态度；由此可知，本文主要阐述人工智能发展面临的人工智能“越狱”这一新的挑战；C选项“AI Jailbreaks: A New Challenge (AI越狱：一个新的挑战)”能够概括文章主旨，适合作为最佳标题。故选C。 D There’s a popular saying that if only one voice is allowed to exist; then that one voice must be a lie. This quote couldn’t be more relevant now, as many businesses and platforms are using shady practices to silence negative feedback and ensure only those voices benefiting them remain. This practice is so-called “artificial review boosting”, and has been influencing objectivity in reviews ever since. Its origin dates back to the 20th century when businesses would hand out free samples to obtain a better reputation. However, the practice rises to a new extreme with the emergence of e-commerce platforms. Many online businesses do whatever it takes to ensure high-rating scores, either through giving bonuses and rewards to customers who leave a good review or through bothering and threatening those who leave a negative one. This behavior is not only morally corrupt but also illegal, and it is absurd that many consumers feel they can’t leave negative feedback out of fear that businesses will cause trouble. It’s apparent that this problem is getting out of hand, but how can we fix it? Regulator intervention would certainly help. There should be a tougher crackdown on illegal practices, and e-commerce platforms should be required to protect the privacy of their users. Nevertheless, this is just a small part of the changes needed, as the rating system as a whole needs restructuring. That’s because this system rewards dishonest sellers rather than those selling quality products, and e-commerce platforms, with their profits unaffected, turn a blind eye to its faults. Against all odds, honest feedback has persisted and people who voice their true opinions still exist, but they are becoming rarer. There’s an old saying that if you put a frog in boiling water, it will leap out, but if you cook the frog slowly in warm water, it won’t notice being cooked alive. We consumers are just like frogs — it’s easy for us to fight together against terrible acts robbing our freedom, but we often ignore when the same freedom is gradually taken from us. There will be no grand coup de grace (致命一击) that ends honest feedback. Companies will just let it fade away slowly but we mustn’t allow that to happen because consumers play a more important role in keeping honest feedback. 32. What is the main issue discussed in the text? A. The illegal practices of consumers. B. The history of e-commerce platforms. C. The benefits of free samples for businesses. D. The decline of honest feedback due to artificial review boosting. 33. How do businesses ensure high-rating scores according to the text? A. By improving product quality. B. By cooperating with regulators. C. By restructuring the rating system. D. By rewarding positive reviews and threatening negative reviewers. 34. What does the frog analogy imply about consumers? A. They are as adaptable as frogs in hot water. B. They are easily frightened by sudden threats. C. They fail to notice the gradual loss of their freedom. D. They should fight against terrible acts immediately. 35. What does the author suggest about the current rating system? A. It effectively promotes honest sellers. B. It prioritizes dishonest sellers over honest ones. C. It has been improved by e-commerce platforms. D. It is unaffected by consumer feedback and product quality. 【答案】32. D 33. D 34. C 35. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章讨论了电商平台通过“人工评价助推”手段操控评论，导致真实反馈逐渐消失的问题，并呼吁消费者和监管机构采取行动。 【32题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中“There’s a popular saying that if only one voice is allowed to exist; then that one voice must be a lie. This quote couldn’t be more relevant now, as many businesses and platforms are using shady practices to silence negative feedback and ensure only those voices benefiting them remain.(有句流行的话说，如果只允许一种声音存在，那么这种声音一定是谎言。这句话现在再合适不过了，因为许多企业和平台都在使用不正当手段来压制负面反馈，只保留那些对他们有利的声音)”和第二段中“This behavior is not only morally corrupt but also illegal, and it is absurd that many consumers feel they can’t leave negative feedback out of fear that businesses will cause trouble. (这种行为不仅在道德上腐败，而且是非法的，荒谬的是许多消费者因为害怕企业会找麻烦而不敢留下负面反馈)”以及下文对“人工评价助推”现象的阐述可知，文章主要讨论的是由于“人工评价助推”导致真实反馈的减少。故选D项。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Many online businesses do whatever it takes to ensure high rating scores, either through giving bonuses and rewards to customers who leave a good review or through bothering and threatening those who leave a negative one.(许多在线企业会不惜一切代价确保高评分，要么给留下好评顾客发放奖金和奖励，要么骚扰和威胁留下差评的顾客)”可知，企业通过奖励好评和威胁差评者来确保高评分。故选D项。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“There’s an old saying that if you put a frog in boiling water, it will leap out, but if you cook the frog slowly in warm water, it won’t notice being cooked alive. We consumers are just like frogs — it’s easy for us to fight together against terrible acts robbing our freedom, but we often ignore when the same freedom is gradually taken from us.(有句老话说，如果你把一只青蛙放进沸水里，它会跳出来，但如果你把青蛙放在温水中慢慢煮，它不会注意到自己正在被活活煮死。我们消费者就像青蛙一样——我们很容易团结起来对抗剥夺我们自由的可怕行为，但当同样的自由被逐渐剥夺时，我们往往会忽视)”可知，青蛙的类比暗示了和温水煮青蛙一样，消费者没有注意到他们的自由在逐渐丧失。故选C项。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“That’s because this system rewards dishonest sellers rather than those selling quality products, and e commerce platforms, with their profits unaffected, turn a blind eye to its faults.(这是因为这个系统奖励的是不诚实的卖家，而不是那些销售优质产品的卖家，而且电子商务平台在利润不受影响的情况下，对其缺陷视而不见)”可知，作者认为当前的评分系统优先考虑不诚实的卖家而非诚实的卖家。故选B项。 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。 The importance of self-improvement often goes unnoticed. Truth is — you can’t run away from yourself. The idea should be to focus on continuous self-development at every stage of life.____36____ Increase self-awareness The first step of self-improvement asks you to become more self-aware. Self-awareness is an ongoing journey. As life goes on, you meet with different experiences and challenges. ____37____. To be on the path of self-improvement, it’s important to never lose touch with yourself. Improve strengths (优点) Self-improvement lets you identify your personal strengths. ____38____. It gives you a better understanding of what you are seeking and where you are likely to thrive (繁荣兴旺). It helps you set life goals and make them happen. Step out of the comfort zone Choosing to work on improving yourself requires you to step out of your comfort zone. It lets you face your fears, try new things, and challenge yourself. There will be times when you’ll discover a new side of your personality. ____39____. Don’t let failures get you frustrated.

As a girl of shy and reserved nature, I had to take a fresh start to fit into the sophisticated city life. One sunny day, my school announced an exciting event, a talent show for the local food bank. Students were encouraged to showcase their unique talents in front of the public in the city hall on National Day. A buzz of excitement fed the school as everyone began preparing for the big day. Deep down, I felt a spark of curiosity and a desire to participate. However, my self-doubt held me back, “I don’t have any special skills to share.” Days turned into weeks, and the talent show drew closer. I couldn’t shake the upsetting feeling until one day, Emma, one of the most popular girls in my class, came to me while I was helping in the grocery store after class. “How about singing together in the talent show?” She grinned, “I heard you singing a tune, along the way back home. I can’t help following you here.” Gosh, I couldn’t believe my ears. Emma, with personality and popularity, acknowledged my little talent. Since Emma had the world’s prettiest voice, I felt like being favoured by fortune. “You two? The talent show for the food bank?” My mum bent towards us and her face lit up. “A big occasion.” Then a light bulb seemed to go in her head. “Why not practise right now upstairs? I bet you’ll be a perfect match.” Winking at us, she seemed to know we were thinking alike. Emma and I embarked on rehearsing almost every single day after school. We brainstormed, exchanged ideas and rehearsed the scene. As the days rolled by, I was feeling pretty good about our act. But the day before the performance, Emma called that she had an acute stomachache and was not in any shape to perform. 注意： 1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: I was completely knocked out by the news. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Finally came the big moment. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】I was completely knocked out by the news. What should I do? Having prepared for such a long time, I didn’t think of that coming up. Feeling at a loss, I was brainstorming as hard as I could to think of a solution, when a gentle touch on my back brought me back to reality. It was my mum, who looked at me with care and concern. “You have prepared for it enough. You can do it by yourself.” She said after my stumbled explanation. I looked back at her eyes, and a sense of confidence and warmness swelled up in my heart. Yes, I could do it myself. Finally came the big moment. Looking around the audience, I stepped onto the stage, with butterflies in my stomach. My voice trembled at first, but with the melodies flew around, the nervousness was gone with the wind. Emotions filled in my song, I performed as naturally as I spoke every day. I saw my mum, who was looking at me with reassurance and care. It turned out to be a good performance, which helped me conquer my fears and turned me into a new person. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇读后续写。文章讲述了作者自小性格内向，不爱交际。偶然一次机会，学校组织学生参加才艺表演，同学Emma盛情邀请作者一同参加，这使得作者备受鼓舞。然而在演出前夕，Emma却因急性胃疼不能上台，面对紧急情况，作者只能自己独立完成表演。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①根据第一段首句“我被这个消息所震惊了。”可知，作者在收到Emma不能参演的消息时一时手足无措，再根据第四段妈妈的表现可知，此时妈妈一定会及时出现，安慰作者并给作者勇气，让作者能独立完成表演。 ②根据第二段首句“重大时刻终于到来了。”可知，作者坚持独立上台表演了。可想而知作者刚登上舞台还是会紧张，但是作者天生有副好嗓子，随着表演深入，这种紧张感会消失，并且精彩的完成表演。 2. 续写线索：手足无措——妈妈安慰并打气——决定独立上台——克服紧张，表演完成——升华 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ① 表演：perform/make a performance/show one’s talents ② 做准备：prepare for/make preparations for ③ 参加：participate in/join in/take part in/be involved in ④ 笑：grin/smile/laugh/giggle/chuckle 情绪类 ① 害羞内向的：shy/reserved/introverted ② 好奇的：curious/be full of curiosity ③ 开心的：delighted/overjoyed/content ④ 担忧的：concerned/worried/butterflies in one’s stomach 【点睛】[高分句型1] Having prepared for such a long time, I didn’t think of that coming up.（运用了现在分词作时间状语） [高分句型2] Emotions filled in my song, I performed as naturally as I spoke every day.（运用了独立主格结构） [高分句型3] I saw my mum, who was looking at me with reassurance and care.（运用了who引导的定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 厦泉五校2024-2025学年高二年级第二学期期末联考 英语科试卷 （考试时间：120分钟 满分：150分） 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 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。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. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What does the man usually order?

Clip-clop past the city’s churches, see where they stored all the gunpowder back in the 1700s and learn about Charleston’s past. Accommodation: Located in the city's historic heart, the Charleston Place hotel features plush rooms and excellent dining. Keystone, Colorado Ski report website On the Snow rates it the top resort for families, thanks to free parking; ski-in, ski-out lodgings; a kids-ski-free program; and beginner terrain (地形). Accommodation: Keystone Lodge and Spa has cozy mountain-inspired rooms and lofts, a heated outdoor pool and hot tub.

She observed that people brought items to donate, including stuffed toys (毛绒玩具). Liebling could tell that the toys held great emotional value for their owners. So she felt sad when the toys were sold very cheaply, put in the dog-toy section, or thrown away. One night, when Liebling got home from work, she started doing some research. She realized that it wasn’t happening only in her town. Worldwide, she learned, millions of toys end up in landfills every year. “If we can change the view that the stuffed toys lose their value once they’ve been loved,” she recalls, “then we can show people that they have so much left in them, and give them to others.” That’s how the Loved Before, a toy-adoption agency, began. The process starts when someone donates a soft toy. The original owner writes down the name of the toy and a story about it. Liebling and her team believe that sharing what makes the toy unique helps potential new owners understand its value. Next, the toy is cleaned, photographed, and packaged with its name and story. Every Monday, toys are posted for adoption on the Loved Before website. The company makes a charitable donation of at least half of the profit from the sale of each toy. Since its creation in 2019, Loved Before has sold more than 50,000 stuffed toys. “But the company’s goal is more than just trying to save some toys from landfills,” Liebling says. “We are trying to change people’s views on a really wide level.” She explains that Loved Before hopes to teach kids “about the value of loving secondhand things again, in the hope that it will go far beyond the idea of teddy bears”. Loved Before is writing a new chapter in the life cycle of toys. 24. Why did Liebling feel sad about secondhand stuffed toys as a volunteer? A. They were not appreciated. B. They were priced quite high. C. They had no emotional value. D. Their owners couldn’t find them. 25. What does Liebling think is the key to saving used stuffed toys? A. Encouraging people to claim their lost toys. B. Persuading the original owners to keep them. C. Preventing them from being thrown into landfills. D. Making people realize their value can be passed on. 26. How does Loved Before highlight its toys? A. By offering appealing discounts. B. By including the toys’ history. C By making up stories for them. D. By changing the toys’ appearance. 27. Which of the following can best describe Liebling? A. Ambitious and critical. B. Intelligent and firm. C. Innovative and caring. D. Adaptable and modest. C Artificial intelligence models can trick each other into disobeying their creators and providing banned instructions for making drugs, or even building a bomb, suggesting that preventing such AI “jailbreaks” is more difficult than it seems. Many publicly available large language models (LLMs), such as ChatGPT, have hard-coded rules that aim to prevent them from exhibiting racial or sexual discrimination, or answering questions with illegal or problematic answers — things they have learned from humans via training data. But that hasn’t stopped people from finding carefully designed instructions that block these protections, known as “jailbreaks”, making AI models disobey the rules. Now Arush Tagade at Leap Laboratories and his co-workers have found a process of jailbreaks. They found that they could simply instruct one LLM to convince other models to adopt a persona (角色), which is able to answer questions the base model has been programmed to refuse. This process is called “persona modulation (调节)”. Tagade says this approach works because much of the training data consumed by large models comes from online conversations, and the models learn to act in certain ways in response to different inputs. By having the right conversation with a model, it is possible to make it adopt a particular persona, causing it to act differently. There is also an idea in AI circles, one yet to be proven, that creating lots of rules for an AI to prevent it displaying unwanted behaviour can accidentally create a blueprint for a model to act that way. This potentially leaves the AI easy to be tricked into taking on an evil persona. “If you’re forcing your model to be good persona, it somewhat understands what a bad persona is,” says Tagade. Yinzhen Li at Imperial College London says it is worrying how current models can be misused, but developers need to weigh such risks with the potential benefits of LLMs. “Like drugs, they also have side effects that need to be controlled,” she says. 28. What does the AI jailbreak refer to? A. The technique to break restrictions of AI models. B. The initiative to set hard-coded rules for AI models. C. The capability of AI models improving themselves. D. The process of AI models learning new information. 29. What can we know about the persona modulation? A. It can help AI models understand emotions. B. It prevents AI learning via online conversations. C. It can make AI models adopt a particular persona. D. It forces AI models to follow only good personas. 30. What is Yinzhen Li’s attitude towards LLMs? A. Unclear. B. Cautious. C. Approving. D. Negative. 31. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A LLMs: Illegal Learning Models B. LLMs: The Latest Advancement C. AI Jailbreaks: A New Challenge D. AI Jailbreaks: A Perfect Approach D There’s a popular saying that if only one voice is allowed to exist; then that one voice must be a lie. This quote couldn’t be more relevant now, as many businesses and platforms are using shady practices to silence negative feedback and ensure only those voices benefiting them remain. This practice is so-called “artificial review boosting”, and has been influencing objectivity in reviews ever since. Its origin dates back to the 20th century when businesses would hand out free samples to obtain a better reputation. However, the practice rises to a new extreme with the emergence of e-commerce platforms. Many online businesses do whatever it takes to ensure high-rating scores, either through giving bonuses and rewards to customers who leave a good review or through bothering and threatening those who leave a negative one. This behavior is not only morally corrupt but also illegal, and it is absurd that many consumers feel they can’t leave negative feedback out of fear that businesses will cause trouble. It’s apparent that this problem is getting out of hand, but how can we fix it? Regulator intervention would certainly help. There should be a tougher crackdown on illegal practices, and e-commerce platforms should be required to protect the privacy of their users. Nevertheless, this is just a small part of the changes needed, as the rating system as a whole needs restructuring. That’s because this system rewards dishonest sellers rather than those selling quality products, and e-commerce platforms, with their profits unaffected, turn a blind eye to its faults. Against all odds, honest feedback has persisted and people who voice their true opinions still exist, but they are becoming rarer. There’s an old saying that if you put a frog in boiling water, it will leap out, but if you cook the frog slowly in warm water, it won’t notice being cooked alive. We consumers are just like frogs — it’s easy for us to fight together against terrible acts robbing our freedom, but we often ignore when the same freedom is gradually taken from us. There will be no grand coup de grace (致命一击) that ends honest feedback. Companies will just let it fade away slowly but we mustn’t allow that to happen because consumers play a more important role in keeping honest feedback. 32. What is the main issue discussed in the text? A. The illegal practices of consumers. B. The history of e-commerce platforms. C The benefits of free samples for businesses. D. The decline of honest feedback due to artificial review boosting. 33. How do businesses ensure high-rating scores according to the text? A. By improving product quality. B. By cooperating with regulators. C. By restructuring the rating system. D. By rewarding positive reviews and threatening negative reviewers. 34. What does the frog analogy imply about consumers? A. They are as adaptable as frogs in hot water. B. They are easily frightened by sudden threats. C. They fail to notice the gradual loss of their freedom. D. They should fight against terrible acts immediately. 35. What does the author suggest about the current rating system? A. It effectively promotes honest sellers. B. It prioritizes dishonest sellers over honest ones. C. It has been improved by e-commerce platforms. D. It is unaffected by consumer feedback and product quality. 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。 The importance of self-improvement often goes unnoticed.

As a girl of shy and reserved nature, I had to take a fresh start to fit into the sophisticated city life. One sunny day, my school announced an exciting event, a talent show for the local food bank. Students were encouraged to showcase their unique talents in front of the public in the city hall on National Day. A buzz of excitement fed the school as everyone began preparing for the big day. Deep down, I felt a spark of curiosity and a desire to participate. However, my self-doubt held me back, “I don’t have any special skills to share.” Days turned into weeks, and the talent show drew closer. I couldn’t shake the upsetting feeling until one day, Emma, one of the most popular girls in my class, came to me while I was helping in the grocery store after class. “How about singing together in the talent show?” She grinned, “I heard you singing a tune, along the way back home. I can’t help following you here.” Gosh, I couldn’t believe my ears. Emma, with personality and popularity, acknowledged my little talent. Since Emma had the world’s prettiest voice, I felt like being favoured by fortune. “You two? The talent show for the food bank?” My mum bent towards us and her face lit up. “A big occasion.” Then a light bulb seemed to go in her head. “Why not practise right now upstairs? I bet you’ll be a perfect match.” Winking at us, she seemed to know we were thinking alike. Emma and I embarked on rehearsing almost every single day after school. We brainstormed, exchanged ideas and rehearsed the scene. As the days rolled by, I was feeling pretty good about our act. But the day before the performance, Emma called that she had an acute stomachache and was not in any shape to perform. 注意： 1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: I was completely knocked out by the news. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Finally came the big moment. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$null
