Whether you are a student or a teacher, running is a great way to keep fit. But it’s important to stay safe, so remember to warm up before running and stretch (拉伸) after running. Try doing these exercises before and after you run! ●Before running: ① Walking 2-5 minutes Start by walking slowly, and gradually walk faster. ② Leg swings 20 swings per leg Swing each leg forward and from side to side. ③ Side shuffles (侧向左右跳步) 20 shuffles per side Keep down and shuffle from side to side. ④ High knees 30 seconds Run in place while raising your knees up toward your chest. ●After running: ①Place your right heel (脚后跟) on a step while keeping your legs straight.

We need to warm up before running and stretch after running to ________. A. help ourselves stay safe B. help ourselves move easily C. help ourselves run fast D. help ourselves feel happy 2. Which kind of warm-up exercise should we do for 30 seconds before running? A. B. C. D. 3. Who is the passage most probably written for? A. Students who want to start a new hobby. B. Runners who want to stay safe while exercising. C. Teachers who want to organize an art festival. D. Make our feel healthy B A New York food bank was offered a large donation of fresh fish last month — but the gift came with a difficulty. LocalCoho,a New York salmon (鲑鱼) farm that was closing, wanted to give 18,100kilograms of salmon to the Food Bank of Central New York. The high-quality meat could feed thousands of families. However, the gift fish were still alive and swimming in the farm’s large pool. The organization needed to find a way to remove about 13,000 salmon from the pool and, later, process them into food. And the food aid group needed to do all this quickly, before the business closed forever at the end of January. Thanks to many volunteers, the group was able to empty the pool in time, place the fish in cold storage and transport them to a processer. Brian McManus is the food bank’s chief operations officer. He said that the short amount of time to complete the operation made activities difficult. But he said, “I knew that we had the will. I knew we had the skill.” Christina Hudson Kohler was among the volunteers who got into the water to collect the fish and put them into the cold storage containers. “It’s a little bit different,” Kohler said during a break. “In the past, my volunteer work with the food bank has been sorting carrots or peppers...” LocalCoho was a new company that had been developing a sustainable (可持续的) salmon farming system. The system uses recycled water. The company had been supplying salmon to buyers, including restaurants, with the goal of building farms across the country. But company officials said they could not raise enough money from investors (投资者) to grow and make money. So, they decided to close the business. The company did not want the fish to go to waste so it sought a way to donate them. The donation is expected to provide more than 26,000 hard-to-reach meals to hungry people. 4. What problem did the New York food bank meet? A. It had no ability to process food. B. It had to turn the live fish into food. C. It lacked a source of food to hand out. D. It had not enough volunteers to help it. 5. What did the chief operations officer stress about the donation? A. Time was tight to deal with the donation. B. He lacked experience in treating live fish. C. There were no funds for processing live fish. D. The donors were generous enough to donate. 6. What was Christina Hudson Kohler’s volunteer work this time? A. Transporting live fish. B. Processing live fish. C. Sorting vegetables. D. Catching live fish. 7. Why did the new company give up their business? A. Food banks needed fish. B. Salmon are not popular. C. It lacked money. D. It wasted too much water. C Britain was once covered with rainforests, known as Celtic rainforests or Atlantic woodland. The temperate (温带的) rainforests only occur in places close to the sea with high rainfall, high humidity (湿度) and low variations in temperature and full of plants and animals. The Celtic rainforests used to spread out all across the wetter areas of the country’s west. But over the centuries the ancient woodlands were later cleared and changed into grasslands for sheep and cattle. By the start of the 20th century, Britain had become the least-wooded country in Europe, with only small parts remaining in western coastal rainforest areas. There’s a new rainforest coming back to Britain right now. A movement is underway across Britain to recover these forgotten ecosystems. And in Devon, the first step towards achieving that has just been completed. With the help of over 100 local volunteers, more than 2,500 native trees have been planted at Devon Wildlife Trust’s Bowden Pillars site, not far from the town of Totnes. It’s hoped that another 4,500 oak, rowan, alder, hazel, birch, willow and holly trees will be planted by the end of this winter and over the coming decades, and that they’ll grow to form a thriving (欣欣向荣的) temperate rainforest. The recovery programme, led by The Wildlife Trusts, is happening across other parts of the country, including Cornwall and Pembrokeshire and has been boosted by a significant £38 million of funding from an insurance company. Claire Inglis, a nature reserve officer at Devon Wildlife Trust, said, “The full grown temperate rainforest will take several decades to become established, but the advantages for nature will be much swifter. The mix of young trees planted among grasslands and hedges (树篱), along with our promise not to use chemicals, will be better for local butterflies and bees, along with local birds such as yellowhammers and barn owls. It will be fascinating to see how it develops.” 8. What was mainly responsible for Britain’s lost Celtic rainforest in the past? A. Low temperature. B. Animal farming. C. Plant variation. D. High humidity. 9. What can we say about the movement across Britain? A. It’s worrying. B. It’s promising. C. It’s unrealistic. D. It’s uncontrollable. 10. What does the underlined word “swifter” in the last paragraph mean? A. Further. B. More unlikely. C. Quicker. D. More costly. 11. Which can be the best title for the text? A. A Story of Destruction About Britain’s Lost Rainforests B. The Challenges of Reviving Celtic Rainforests in Britain C. A Nationwide Effort to Revive Lost Rainforests in Britain D. The Truth of the Disappearance of Britain’s Celtic Rainforests D “Generative AI has transformed education dramatically,” says senior study author Chin-Hsi Lin, an education technology researcher at the University of Hong Kong. Lin and his colleagues recruited postgraduate students from 14 regions who were studying in the U.K. and used AI in their work. The students were asked to come up with and explain a metaphor (隐喻) for the way generative AI impacted their academic writing. By analyzing the responses, the researchers found four categories for how students were using and thinking about AI in their work. The most basic of these was the use of AI to check English grammar or format a reference list. Participants compared AI to aesthetic (美学的) enhancements such as makeup or high heels, or a mechanical tool such as a packaging machine or measuring tape. In the next category, AI was more involved in the writing process itself. Some students used it to organize the logic of their writing; some equated it to Tesla’s Autopilot because it helped them stay on track. In the third category, students used AI to more meaningfully transform their writing process and final product. Here, they called the technology a “bridge” or a “teacher” that could help them overcome cross-cultural boundaries in communication styles — especially important because academic writing is so often done in English. In the fourth category, students’ metaphors highlighted the potential danger of AI. Some of the participants expressed discomfort with the way it enabled a lack of innovation or a lack of deeper understanding (like fast food, convenient but not nutritious). In this category, students most commonly considered it handy. “Metaphors really matter, and they have shaped the public discourse (论述) for all kinds of new technologies,” says Emily Weinstein, a technology researcher. “The comparisons we use to talk about new technology can reveal our assumptions about how they work — and even our blind spots. There’s never only one right metaphor to talk about a new technology. When we try to assign just one metaphor to a new technology, we risk flattening it and overlooking both its benefits and dangers.” 12. What is the primary focus of the study conducted by Lin and his colleagues? A. The moral concerns about AI in education. B. The role of AI in postgraduates’ academic writing. C. The effectiveness of AI in writing academic papers. D. The impact of AI on students’ creativity in research. 13. Which aspect of AI does the third category of metaphors emphasize? A. Its impact on narrowing cultural gaps. B. Its method for enforcing language rules. C. Its effect on simplifying technical language. D. Its function of reducing academic workloads. 14. What concern is raised in the fourth category of metaphors? A. AI’s highly addictive feature. B. AI’s high costs and inaccessibility. C. AI’s lack of creativity and inspiration. D. AI’s ineffectiveness in academic writing. 15. What is Weinstein’s attitude towards using a single metaphor for Al? A Positive. B. Indifferent. C. Unclear. D. Negative. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Choosing new technology for schools can be exciting, but poor planning often leads to wasted time and money. ____16____ Here are three that matter most. Timeline for implementation (实施) We often plan tech adoption on a school-year cycle, starting in August or September. But that timing can backfire. Instead, the best time to begin test cases is during the spring of the year before full implementation. ____17____ Schools should seek companies that support multi-year plans with fair prices, starting early to lower the risk. Professional Learning New contracts often include initial training. But what happens in later years with new teachers, deeper implementation, or refresher needs? ____18____ If two products offer similar features, knowing which one includes long-term professional learning — and which one charges extra — can make or break a decision. Working with old systems New tools don’t work alone. Schools already have systems in place like learning management platforms and student databases. ____19____ Educators and students benefit when systems are connected and simple to use. ____20____ By carefully considering implementation timing, ongoing training needs, and system integration, schools can turn technology investments from potential wastes into lasting educational resources. Thoughtful planning in these three areas ensures new tools truly improve teaching and learning. A. New tools must work well with those already in use. B. Not every new tool needs to interact with existing ones. C. However, poor system integration can waste teachers’ time. D. But problems can arise if certain questions aren’t considered. E. Trying out tools during spring makes full use easier in the fall. F. Some companies are generous at first but later become hard to reach. G. To avoid failure, schools should ask key questions before making a purchase. 第三部分语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Since the start of the industrial revolution, there have been threats that new machines — from mechanised looms to microchips — would usurp (侵占) human jobs. For the most part, the humans have prevailed (获胜，盛行). Now, say some experts, with AI ubiquity on the horizon, the ____21____ is being realised: the robots really are coming for some jobs. A March 2023 report from Goldman Sachs estimated that AI capable of content generation could do a quarter of all the work ____22____ done by humans. Across the European Union and US, the report further notes, 300 million jobs could be lost to ____23____. And that could be dire, says Martin Ford, author of Rule of the Robots: How Artificial Intelligence Will Transform Everything. “It's not just that this would happen to ____24____, but it could be pretty systemic,” he says. “It could happen to a lot of people, potentially quite suddenly, potentially all at the same time. And that has ____25____ not just for those individuals, but for the whole economy.” Thankfully, it’s not all bad news. The experts ____26____ their warnings with a caveat: there are still things AI isn’t capable of — tasks that involve ____27____ human qualities, like emotional intelligence and outside-the-box thinking. And moving into roles that center those skills could help ____28____ the chances of being replaced. “I think there are generally three ____29____ that are going to be relatively insulated (绝缘的，隔热的) in the foreseeable future,” says Ford. “The first would be jobs that are genuinely _____30_____: you’re not doing formulaic work or just rearranging things, but you're genuinely coming up with new ideas and building something new.” The second safe zone, he continues, is jobs that require _____31_____ interpersonal relationships. He points to nurses, business consultants and investigative journalists. These are jobs, he says, “where you need a very deep _____32_____ of people. I think it’ll be a long time before AI has the ability to interact in the kinds of ways that really build relationships”. The third safe zone, says Ford, “are jobs that really require lots of mobility and dexterity and problem-solving ability in _____33_____ environments”. Many trade jobs – think electricians, plumbers, welders and the like – fall under this umbrella. “These are the kinds of jobs where you're dealing with a new situation all the time,” he adds. “They are probably the hardest of anything to automate. In order to automate jobs like this, you would need a science fiction robot. You’d need Star Wars’s C-3PO.” While humans will likely remain in jobs that fall within those categories, that doesn’t mean those professions are totally insulated from the ascent of AI. In fact, says Joanne Song McLaughlin, associate professor of labor economics at the University of Buffalo, US, most jobs, regardless of _____34_____, have aspects that are likely to be automated by the _____35_____. In short, seeking roles in dynamic, shifting environments that include unpredictable tasks is good way to stave off (挡开，避开 ) job loss to AI. At least, for a while. 21. A. issue B. threat C. ambition D. target 22. A. temporarily B. potentially C. currently D. probably 23. A. automation B. revolution C. imagination D. information 24. A. individuals B. white collars C. manual workers D. designers 25. A. benefits B. comments C. fascinations D. implications 26. A. receive B. propose C. issue D. cancel 27. A. indifferently B. distinctly C. deliberately D. collaboratively 28. A. increase B. lessen C. seize D. treasure 29. A. contents B. preferences C. factors D. categories 30. A. traditional B. physical C. creative D. mental 31 A. distant B. foreseeable C. simple D. sophisticated 32. A. administration B. development C. understanding D. misinterpretation 33. A. unpredictable B. dangerous C. controllable D. noisy 34. A. position B. occupation C. income D. industry 35. A. engineer B. technology C. potential D. tendency 第二节(共10小题;每小题1.5分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 The Moomba Festival is a lively celebration that takes over Melbourne each year, brightening the city with its energy and excitement.

After picking it up curiously, Oliver found a bookstore logo on the surface, which reminded him of his part-time-job experience working at a bookstore during college. In addition, he found a large amount of cash and a business card with a phone number on it. Oliver and his father had been living a poor life all together although his father worked hard each day. Oliver had been struggling with unemployment while actively looking for a new job. “What if I keep the wallet?” he said to himself, the thought of financial relief crossing his mind. “I could use the money to do something.” Yet, a wave of guilt washed over him. “But Father would be annoyed if I…” he thought, holding the wallet tightly. Noticing his hesitation, Oliver’s father asked what was wrong. He told his father about the wallet and his inner struggle. With a gentle but firm voice, his father reminded him of the values, “We shouldn’t keep what isn’t ours, Oliver.” Oliver’s face turned red with a mix of emotions. “We have bills without steady income monthly, and this could be a turning point,” he responded. His father admitted their difficulties but encouraged him to think about the right thing to do, saying, “Returning it could bring you unexpected good luck.” Finally, Oliver decided to call the number on the business card. The owner was an elderly man, who was very grateful to take his wallet back. He explained that the money inside was prepared for his son Noah, which was important for his new business-a bookstore he was planning to open. As Oliver walked away, he felt a sense of fulfillment (成就感) from doing the right thing, but he continued to worry about his own job search and financial situation. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Oliver received an unexpected phone call several weeks later. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Oliver was appointed manager of Noah’s new bookstore soon . ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 商城县2024-2025学年第二学期高一年级期末考试 英语试题 考生注意: 1.答题前,考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号填写在试卷和答题卡上,并将考生号条形码粘贴在答题卡上的指定位置。 2.回答选择题时,选出每小题答案后,用铅笔把答题卡对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动,用橡皮擦干净后,再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时,将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效， 3.考试结束后,将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分听力(共两节，满分30分) 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节(共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的三个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1．Why does Dick want to leave?

LocalCoho,a New York salmon (鲑鱼) farm that was closing, wanted to give 18,100kilograms of salmon to the Food Bank of Central New York. The high-quality meat could feed thousands of families. However, the gift fish were still alive and swimming in the farm’s large pool. The organization needed to find a way to remove about 13,000 salmon from the pool and, later, process them into food. And the food aid group needed to do all this quickly, before the business closed forever at the end of January. Thanks to many volunteers, the group was able to empty the pool in time, place the fish in cold storage and transport them to a processer. Brian McManus is the food bank’s chief operations officer. He said that the short amount of time to complete the operation made activities difficult. But he said, “I knew that we had the will. I knew we had the skill.” Christina Hudson Kohler was among the volunteers who got into the water to collect the fish and put them into the cold storage containers. “It’s a little bit different,” Kohler said during a break. “In the past, my volunteer work with the food bank has been sorting carrots or peppers...” LocalCoho was a new company that had been developing a sustainable (可持续的) salmon farming system. The system uses recycled water. The company had been supplying salmon to buyers, including restaurants, with the goal of building farms across the country. But company officials said they could not raise enough money from investors (投资者) to grow and make money. So, they decided to close the business. The company did not want the fish to go to waste so it sought a way to donate them. The donation is expected to provide more than 26,000 hard-to-reach meals to hungry people. 4. What problem did the New York food bank meet? A. It had no ability to process food. B. It had to turn the live fish into food. C. It lacked a source of food to hand out. D. It had not enough volunteers to help it. 5. What did the chief operations officer stress about the donation? A. Time was tight to deal with the donation. B. He lacked experience in treating live fish. C. There were no funds for processing live fish. D. The donors were generous enough to donate. 6. What was Christina Hudson Kohler’s volunteer work this time? A. Transporting live fish. B. Processing live fish. C. Sorting vegetables. D. Catching live fish. 7. Why did the new company give up their business? A. Food banks needed fish. B. Salmon are not popular. C. It lacked money. D. It wasted too much water. 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了纽约食物银行获赠活鲑鱼及处理过程 。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。 根据第二段“However, the gift fish were still alive and swimming in the farm’s large pool. The organization needed to find a way to remove about 13,000 salmon from the pool and, later, process them into food.(然而，这些捐赠的鱼还活着，在农场的大水池里游来游去。该组织需要找到一种方法，从水池中捞出约13,000条鲑鱼，随后将它们加工成食物)”可知，纽约食物银行遇到的问题是它必须把活鱼变成食物。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。 根据第四段“Brian McManus is the food bank’s chief operations officer. He said that the short amount of time to complete the operation made activities difficult.(布莱恩·麦克马纳斯是这家食物银行的首席运营官。他表示，完成这项操作的时间紧迫，使得各项活动开展起来困难重重)”可知，首席运营官强调处理捐赠的时间很紧。 故选A。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。 根据第五段“Christina Hudson Kohler was among the volunteers who got into the water to collect the fish and put them into the cold storage containers.(克里斯蒂娜·哈德森·科勒是众多志愿者中的一员，她下水捕捞这些鱼，并将它们放入冷藏容器中)”可知，Christina Hudson Kohler这次的志愿者工作是抓活鱼。 故选D。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。 根据第六段“But company officials said they could not raise enough money from investors (投资者) to grow and make money. So, they decided to close the business.(但公司管理人员表示，他们无法从投资者那里筹集到足够的资金来扩大规模并实现盈利，因此决定关闭公司)”可知，这家新公司放弃业务是因为它缺乏资金。 故选C。 C Britain was once covered with rainforests, known as Celtic rainforests or Atlantic woodland. The temperate (温带的) rainforests only occur in places close to the sea with high rainfall, high humidity (湿度) and low variations in temperature and full of plants and animals. The Celtic rainforests used to spread out all across the wetter areas of the country’s west. But over the centuries the ancient woodlands were later cleared and changed into grasslands for sheep and cattle. By the start of the 20th century, Britain had become the least-wooded country in Europe, with only small parts remaining in western coastal rainforest areas. There’s a new rainforest coming back to Britain right now. A movement is underway across Britain to recover these forgotten ecosystems. And in Devon, the first step towards achieving that has just been completed. With the help of over 100 local volunteers, more than 2,500 native trees have been planted at Devon Wildlife Trust’s Bowden Pillars site, not far from the town of Totnes. It’s hoped that another 4,500 oak, rowan, alder, hazel, birch, willow and holly trees will be planted by the end of this winter and over the coming decades, and that they’ll grow to form a thriving (欣欣向荣的) temperate rainforest. The recovery programme, led by The Wildlife Trusts, is happening across other parts of the country, including Cornwall and Pembrokeshire and has been boosted by a significant £38 million of funding from an insurance company. Claire Inglis, a nature reserve officer at Devon Wildlife Trust, said, “The full grown temperate rainforest will take several decades to become established, but the advantages for nature will be much swifter. The mix of young trees planted among grasslands and hedges (树篱), along with our promise not to use chemicals, will be better for local butterflies and bees, along with local birds such as yellowhammers and barn owls. It will be fascinating to see how it develops.” 8. What was mainly responsible for Britain’s lost Celtic rainforest in the past? A. Low temperature. B. Animal farming. C. Plant variation. D. High humidity. 9. What can we say about the movement across Britain? A. It’s worrying. B. It’s promising. C. It’s unrealistic. D. It’s uncontrollable. 10. What does the underlined word “swifter” in the last paragraph mean? A. Further. B. More unlikely. C. Quicker. D. More costly. 11. Which can be the best title for the text? A. A Story of Destruction About Britain’s Lost Rainforests B. The Challenges of Reviving Celtic Rainforests in Britain C. A Nationwide Effort to Revive Lost Rainforests in Britain D. The Truth of the Disappearance of Britain’s Celtic Rainforests 【答案】8. B 9. B 10. C 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了英国曾经覆盖着被称为凯尔特雨林或大西洋林地的热带雨林，后来因放牧被砍伐，如今英国正开展一项全国性的运动来恢复这些被遗忘的生态系统，并介绍了该运动的进展、资金支持及带来的好处等。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“But over the centuries the ancient woodlands were later cleared and changed into grasslands for sheep and cattle. (但几个世纪以来，这些古老林地后来被清理并变成了放牧牛羊的草地)”可知，英国凯尔特雨林消失的主要原因是畜牧业的发展。故选B项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“A movement is underway across Britain to recover these forgotten ecosystems. (一场恢复这些被遗忘的生态系统的运动正在英国各地展开)”以及后文提到的植树计划和资金支持，可以看出这一运动充满希望。故选B项。 【10题详解】 词义猜测题。根据最后一段“The full grown temperate rainforest will take several decades to become established, but the advantages for nature will be much swifter. (成熟的温带雨林需要几十年的时间才能形成，但是对自然的好处会更swifter)”，由but可知，前后形成转折，前面说需要的时间长，后面应表示好处来得快，所以“swifter”意为“更快的”。故选C项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“The Celtic rainforests used to spread out all across the wetter areas of the country’s west. But over the centuries the ancient woodlands were later cleared and changed into grasslands for sheep and cattle. (凯尔特雨林曾一度遍布英国西部较为湿润的地区。但在过去的几个世纪里，这些古老的林地逐渐被砍伐清理，转而变成了用于放牧牛羊的牧场)”以及结合全文内容可知，文章开篇提到英国凯尔特雨林的消失，随后重点介绍了当前全国范围内恢复雨林的努力，包括植树计划、资金支持以及预期的生态效益，因此，最佳标题应涵盖“恢复雨林”这一核心内容。故选C项。 D “Generative AI has transformed education dramatically,” says senior study author Chin-Hsi Lin, an education technology researcher at the University of Hong Kong. Lin and his colleagues recruited postgraduate students from 14 regions who were studying in the U.K. and used AI in their work. The students were asked to come up with and explain a metaphor (隐喻) for the way generative AI impacted their academic writing. By analyzing the responses, the researchers found four categories for how students were using and thinking about AI in their work. The most basic of these was the use of AI to check English grammar or format a reference list. Participants compared AI to aesthetic (美学的) enhancements such as makeup or high heels, or a mechanical tool such as a packaging machine or measuring tape. In the next category, AI was more involved in the writing process itself. Some students used it to organize the logic of their writing; some equated it to Tesla’s Autopilot because it helped them stay on track. In the third category, students used AI to more meaningfully transform their writing process and final product. Here, they called the technology a “bridge” or a “teacher” that could help them overcome cross-cultural boundaries in communication styles — especially important because academic writing is so often done in English. In the fourth category, students’ metaphors highlighted the potential danger of AI. Some of the participants expressed discomfort with the way it enabled a lack of innovation or a lack of deeper understanding (like fast food, convenient but not nutritious). In this category, students most commonly considered it handy. “Metaphors really matter, and they have shaped the public discourse (论述) for all kinds of new technologies,” says Emily Weinstein, a technology researcher. “The comparisons we use to talk about new technology can reveal our assumptions about how they work — and even our blind spots. There’s never only one right metaphor to talk about a new technology. When we try to assign just one metaphor to a new technology, we risk flattening it and overlooking both its benefits and dangers.” 12. What is the primary focus of the study conducted by Lin and his colleagues? A. The moral concerns about AI in education. B. The role of AI in postgraduates’ academic writing. C. The effectiveness of AI in writing academic papers. D. The impact of AI on students’ creativity in research. 13. Which aspect of AI does the third category of metaphors emphasize? A. Its impact on narrowing cultural gaps. B. Its method for enforcing language rules. C. Its effect on simplifying technical language. D. Its function of reducing academic workloads. 14. What concern is raised in the fourth category of metaphors? A. AI’s highly addictive feature. B. AI’s high costs and inaccessibility. C. AI’s lack of creativity and inspiration. D AI’s ineffectiveness in academic writing. 15. What is Weinstein’s attitude towards using a single metaphor for Al? A. Positive. B. Indifferent. C. Unclear. D. Negative. 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲香港大学研究发现研究生用四类隐喻看待生成式 AI 对学术写作的影响，涵盖工具性到潜在风险。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“The students were asked to come up with and explain a metaphor (隐喻) for the way generative AI impacted their academic writing. (学生们被要求为生成式 AI 对其学术写作的影响想出并解释一个隐喻。)”可知，研究的核心是AI在研究生学术写作中的角色。故选B项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Here, they called the technology a ‘bridge’ or a ‘teacher’ that could help them overcome cross-cultural boundaries in communication styles — especially important because academic writing is so often done in English. (在这里，他们称该技术为‘桥梁’或‘老师’，可以帮助他们克服沟通风格中的跨文化边界——尤其重要，因为学术写作经常用英语完成。)”可知，第三类隐喻强调 AI 在缩小文化差距方面的作用。故选A项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段第二句“Some of the participants expressed discomfort with the way it enabled a lack of innovation or a lack of deeper understanding (like fast food, convenient but not nutritious). (一些参与者对其导致缺乏创新或缺乏深入理解的方式表示不满（如快餐，方便但无营养）。)”可知，第四类隐喻关注AI导致的创造力和灵感缺失。故选C项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段Weinstein的表述“When we try to assign just one metaphor to a new technology, we risk flattening it and overlooking both its benefits and dangers. (当我们试图为一项新技术仅赋予一个隐喻时，就有可能简化它并忽视其利弊。)”可推知，Weinstein对单一隐喻持否定态度。故选D项。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Choosing new technology for schools can be exciting, but poor planning often leads to wasted time and money. ____16____ Here are three that matter most. Timeline for implementation (实施) We often plan tech adoption on a school-year cycle, starting in August or September. But that timing can backfire. Instead, the best time to begin test cases is during the spring of the year before full implementation. ____17____ Schools should seek companies that support multi-year plans with fair prices, starting early to lower the risk. Professional Learning New contracts often include initial training. But what happens in later years with new teachers, deeper implementation, or refresher needs? ____18____ If two products offer similar features, knowing which one includes long-term professional learning — and which one charges extra — can make or break a decision. Working with old systems New tools don’t work alone. Schools already have systems in place, like learning management platforms and student databases. ____19____ Educators and students benefit when systems are connected and simple to use. ____20____ By carefully considering implementation timing, ongoing training needs, and system integration, schools can turn technology investments from potential wastes into lasting educational resources. Thoughtful planning in these three areas ensures new tools truly improve teaching and learning. A. New tools must work well with those already in use. B. Not every new tool needs to interact with existing ones. C. However, poor system integration can waste teachers’ time. D. But problems can arise if certain questions aren’t considered. E. Trying out tools during spring makes full use easier in the fall. F. Some companies are generous at first but later become hard to reach. G. To avoid failure, schools should ask key questions before making a purchase. 【答案】16. G 17. E 18. F 19. A 20. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是学校在选择新技术时应重点考虑的三大关键因素。 【16题详解】 空格后的句子是“Here are three that matter most.(以下是最重要的三个问题)”，这表明空格处应引出对“关键问题”的强调。G选项“To avoid failure, schools should ask key questions before making a purchase.(为避免失败，学校在采购前应提出关键问题)”与后文自然衔接，符合语境，故选G。 【17题详解】 空格前一句“Instead, the best time to begin test cases is during the spring of the year before full implementation.(相反，开始测试案例的最佳时间是在完全实现之前的春季)”提到“春季是开始试用的最佳时机”；空格处应该解释为什么春季是开始试用的最佳时机，E选项“Trying out tools during spring makes full use easier in the fall.(在春季试用工具，能更轻松地在秋季充分发挥其效用)”解释了为什么春季是最佳时机，与前后文逻辑一致，符合语境，故选E。 【18题详解】 空前“New contracts often include initial training. But what happens in later years with new teachers, deeper implementation, or refresher needs?(新合同通常包括初始培训。但是在后来的几年里，如果有新的老师，更深入的实施，或者需要复习，会发生什么呢？)”提出后来会发生什么的问题，空格处应该回答后来会发生什么，F选项“Some companies are generous at first but later become hard to reach.(有些公司一开始态度慷慨，但后来就变得难以联系)”说明了后来有的公司变得难以联系，承接上文，符合语境，故选F。 【19题详解】 空前“New tools don’t work alone.

For the most part, the humans have prevailed (获胜，盛行). Now, say some experts, with AI ubiquity on the horizon, the ____21____ is being realised: the robots really are coming for some jobs. A March 2023 report from Goldman Sachs estimated that AI capable of content generation could do a quarter of all the work ____22____ done by humans. Across the European Union and US, the report further notes, 300 million jobs could be lost to ____23____. And that could be dire, says Martin Ford, author of Rule of the Robots: How Artificial Intelligence Will Transform Everything. “It's not just that this would happen to ____24____, but it could be pretty systemic,” he says. “It could happen to a lot of people, potentially quite suddenly, potentially all at the same time. And that has ____25____ not just for those individuals, but for the whole economy.” Thankfully, it’s not all bad news. The experts ____26____ their warnings with a caveat: there are still things AI isn’t capable of — tasks that involve ____27____ human qualities, like emotional intelligence and outside-the-box thinking. And moving into roles that center those skills could help ____28____ the chances of being replaced. “I think there are generally three ____29____ that are going to be relatively insulated (绝缘的，隔热的) in the foreseeable future,” says Ford. “The first would be jobs that are genuinely _____30_____: you’re not doing formulaic work or just rearranging things, but you're genuinely coming up with new ideas and building something new.” The second safe zone, he continues, is jobs that require _____31_____ interpersonal relationships. He points to nurses, business consultants and investigative journalists. These are jobs, he says, “where you need a very deep _____32_____ of people. I think it’ll be a long time before AI has the ability to interact in the kinds of ways that really build relationships”. The third safe zone, says Ford, “are jobs that really require lots of mobility and dexterity and problem-solving ability in _____33_____ environments”. Many trade jobs – think electricians, plumbers, welders and the like – fall under this umbrella. “These are the kinds of jobs where you're dealing with a new situation all the time,” he adds. “They are probably the hardest of anything to automate. In order to automate jobs like this, you would need a science fiction robot. You’d need Star Wars’s C-3PO.” While humans will likely remain in jobs that fall within those categories, that doesn’t mean those professions are totally insulated from the ascent of AI. In fact, says Joanne Song McLaughlin, associate professor of labor economics at the University of Buffalo, US, most jobs, regardless of _____34_____, have aspects that are likely to be automated by the _____35_____. In short, seeking roles in dynamic, shifting environments that include unpredictable tasks is good way to stave off (挡开，避开 ) job loss to AI. At least, for a while. 21. A. issue B. threat C. ambition D. target 22. A. temporarily B. potentially C. currently D. probably 23.

After picking it up curiously, Oliver found a bookstore logo on the surface, which reminded him of his part-time-job experience working at a bookstore during college. In addition, he found a large amount of cash and a business card with a phone number on it. Oliver and his father had been living a poor life all together although his father worked hard each day. Oliver had been struggling with unemployment while actively looking for a new job. “What if I keep the wallet?” he said to himself, the thought of financial relief crossing his mind. “I could use the money to do something.” Yet, a wave of guilt washed over him. “But Father would be annoyed if I…” he thought, holding the wallet tightly. Noticing his hesitation, Oliver’s father asked what was wrong. He told his father about the wallet and his inner struggle. With a gentle but firm voice, his father reminded him of the values, “We shouldn’t keep what isn’t ours, Oliver.” Oliver’s face turned red with a mix of emotions. “We have bills without steady income monthly, and this could be a turning point,” he responded. His father admitted their difficulties but encouraged him to think about the right thing to do, saying, “Returning it could bring you unexpected good luck.” Finally, Oliver decided to call the number on the business card. The owner was an elderly man, who was very grateful to take his wallet back. He explained that the money inside was prepared for his son Noah, which was important for his new business-a bookstore he was planning to open. As Oliver walked away, he felt a sense of fulfillment (成就感) from doing the right thing, but he continued to worry about his own job search and financial situation. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Oliver received an unexpected phone call several weeks later. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Oliver was appointed manager of Noah’s new bookstore soon . ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】示例： Oliver received an unexpected phone call several weeks later. It was from Noah, the elderly man’s son, who spoke in a happy and warm tone. “Your honesty really touched my father,” he said. “We are opening a bookstore next month and need someone we can trust to help run it.” Oliver’s heart beat fast — this was the chance he had been waiting for. When he said he didn’t have much experience, Noah laughed softly and replied, “Being a good person is more important.” Oliver felt very excited and agreed to meet for an interview. After hanging up, he remembered his father’s words about “good luck coming from doing the right thing”. Maybe life did reward those who made honest choices, even when it was difficult. Oliver was appointed manager of Noah’s new bookstore soon. The job not only helped with his money problems but also made him love books again. Noah, who admired Oliver’s hard work, even offered him a share of the store’s profits. As Oliver watched customers look through the books he had carefully chosen, he realized how one honest decision had changed his future. His father, both proud and playful, would say, “I told you it would work out.” Years later, when Oliver talked to a young worker who was having a hard time, he shared Noah’s lesson: “Good character opens doors that skills alone cannot.” The wallet he had once thought about keeping had, in the end, given him more than he had ever expected. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了奥利弗在超市捡到内有大量现金和名片的钱包，虽生活困苦想占有，但在父亲劝说下归还。几周后他接到诺亚电话，获邀帮忙经营书店。成为经理后他解决经济问题，还因工作出色获利润分成，意识到诚实决定改变未来并将教诲分享给他人。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“几周后，奥利弗接到了一个意外的电话。”可知，第一段可描写奥利弗接到诺亚电话，得知对方因他的诚实邀请他帮忙经营书店，奥利弗很激动并同意面试。 ②由第二段首句内容“奥利弗很快被任命为诺亚新书店的经理。”可知，第二段可描写奥利弗成为书店经理后解决了经济问题，还因工作出色获得利润分成，他意识到诚实决定改变未来，并将诺亚的教诲分享给他人。 2.续写线索：接到电话——得知邀请——激动同意——成为经理——解决经济问题——获得利润分成——分享教诲 3.词汇激活： 行为类： ① 信任：trust/believe in ② 帮助：help/assist ③ 提供：offer/provide 情绪类： ① 高兴的：happy/pleased ② 激动的：excited/thrilled 【点睛】【高分句型1】Maybe life did reward those who made honest choices, even when it was difficult.(运用了who引导的定语从句，when引导的时间状语从句) 【高分句型2】As Oliver watched customers look through the books he had carefully chosen, he realized how one honest decision had changed his future.(运用了As引导的时间状语从句，省略关系代词that/which的定语从句修饰先行词books，how引导的宾语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
