It was a regular Monday when I received an email from my son's school about a coming science fair. At first, I thought, “Great! I can't wait to see the project of my son, Tim, ” The thought of colorful displays and creative ideas excited me.
However, as I read further, my excitement quickly turned to anxiety. Not only were students required to present their projects, but parents were expected to participate as well! This unexpected change left me feeling upset. “Oh, no. I'm not good at science and I haven't done a project since I was in school. How can I help him? ” I was also worried about how my lack of experience might affect my son and his chance to shine.
That evening, my son came home full of excitement, “Dad, this is going to be wonderful. We should make a volcano that erupts! ” And so, we began our project with some online research and a trip to the store for supplies. I realized that our project might be displayed for everyone to see and any mistake could be embarrassing.
Our first attempt at building the volcano was a disaster. Fast forward to the weekend, and it was time for a practice run at school. I expected the other parents to be as confused as I was. I was wrong! They were so prepared that they could be scientists themselves. The pressure was on.
Over the next few days, we worked hard and our project improved. My son was excited, and I started to enjoy the process, too. The day of the science fair arrived, and my nervousness faded (消退). It turns out that concentrating on having fun with my son was the best way to overcome my worries. Plus, seeing his smile made everything worth it.
Reflecting on the experience, I realized it had brought us closer. It was the first time my son and I had created something together. I now look forward to more projects in the future.
4. How did the author feel shortly after receiving the email?
A. Upset. B. Excited. C. Anxious. D. Embarrassed.
5. What could be inferred about Tim?
A. He took an active part in the project. B. Obviously, he lacked self-confidence.
C. He relied heavily on his father for ideas. D. He found the project too hard to complete.
6. What helped get rid of the author's worries?
A. Good preparations for the science fair. B. Focus on working with his son together.
C. His awareness that effort mattered more. D. Completing the project without mistakes.
7. What did the author realize after the science fair?
A. Three heads are better than one. B. Those who are determined will succeed.
C. The spirit of science is to keep trying. D. The experience strengthened father-son tie.

The Amazon rainforest, is as undisturbed a place as most people can imagine, but even there, the effects of a changing climate are becoming clear. Now, research suggests that many of the region’s most sensitive bird species are starting to evolve (进化) in reaction to warming.
Birds are often considered sentinel (哨兵) species meaning that they indicate the overall health of an ecosystem—so scientists are particularly interested in how they’re reacting to climate change. In general, the news has not been good. For instance, a 2019 report by the National Audubon Society found that more than two-thirds of North America’s bird species will be in danger of extinction by 2100 if warming trends continue on their current course.
For the new study, researchers collected the biggest data set so far on the Amazon’s resident birds, representing 77 non-migratory species and lasting the 40 years from 1979 to 2019. During the study period, the average temperature in the region rose, while the amount of rainfall dropped, making for a hotter, dryer climate overall. According to the report on November 12 in the journal Science Advances, 36 species have lost weight in great amounts, as much as 2 percent of their body weight per decade since 1980. Meanwhile, all the species showed some decrease in average body weight, while a third grew longer wings.
Because of the study’s long time series and large sample sizes, the authors are able to show the significant effects of climate change on local birds. They suppose smaller birds may have an easier time keeping cool. In general, smaller animals have a larger rate of surface area to body size, so they dissipate more heat faster than a bigger animal. However, the researchers themselves are unsure and wonder what advantage the wing length changes give the birds.
8. Why are scientists fond of doing research on birds?
A. They show unique behaviors. B. They are ecological health indicators.
C. They are in danger of extinction. D. They have evolved in reaction to warming.
9. What can we learn from the new study?
A. About 33% species evolved longer wings.
B. 36 species lost 2% of their body weight every year.
C. The climate in the Amazon becomes hotter and wetter.
D The study focused on migratory species in the Amazon.
10. What does the underlined word “dissipate” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Put off. B. Give off. C. Put away. D. Give away.
11. What would probably the researchers further study?
A. The impact of climate change on birds.
B. The reason for the loss of bird’s weight.
C. The reason for smaller animals to keep cool.
D. The advantage of the change in birds’ wing length.
D
When visiting a doctor in the future, you can expect to be accompanied by a virtual version of yourself. This so-called digital twin will be a working model of your body that can be shown onto a physician’s computer screen. Updated with your latest vital signs, it will help the doctor make an accurate diagnosis (诊断) and provide personalized treatments for the patients.
No matter how unreal this might seem, the researchers at Queen Mary University of London (QMUL) already use computer simulations (模拟) of the hearts of patients to test different treatments for a heart disorder. It would be far too dangerous to experiment this way on someone’s real heart.
Digital twins are starting to be seen everywhere. They can not only monitor the health of jet engines on airliners, but also help carmakers spend fewer years on the development of new models by simulating test drives and crashes. All this is being powered by recent progress in artificial intelligence (AI), which gives twins the ability to make predictions about their physical counterparts (对应的事物), and adjust themselves based on new information..
Digital twins make it easier for humans to solve challenging problems, allowing people to have a look into the future. For businesses, this should mean better designs and operations. For society, the promise is also fascinating: personalized health care, and ways to prevent the earth from environmental disasters.
Could these virtual twins go out of control? They might if they are programmed badly, or hacked into. Digital twins will take in mountains of data, some of it wrong and much of it raising concerns about privacy. Yet those risks are a natural part of technological progress. The appearance of the digital mirror world will raise new questions, but its potential benefits are already easy to see.
12. Which of the following best describes a digital twin?
A. A virtual copy. B. A video game. C. A toy model. D. A medical database.
13. Why do researchers at QMUL use computer simulatıons of hearts?
A. To reduce the time of the heart operation.
B. To use real hearts much more conveniently.
C. To help increase the patients’ recovery rates.
D. To avoid the danger of experimenting on real hearts.
14. How does AI contribute to the development of digital twins?
A. It increases the efficiency of simulations through data analysis.
B. It creates accurate digital copies for medical and industrial use.
C. It enables digital twins to predict results and adapt on their own.
D. It improves virtual models by adding real-time monitoring features.
15. Which of the following is the most suitable title for the passage?
A. Digital Twins: A Potential Threat to Privacy
B. Digital Twins: The Future of Problem-Solving
C. Digital Twins: A New Age of Medical Treatment
D. Digital Twins: A Double-Edged Sword of Technology

One weekend in July, Jane and her husband, Tom, drove three hours to camp overnight by a lake in the forest. Unfortunately, on the way an unpleasant subject came up and they started to quarrel. By the time they reached the lake, Jane was so angry that she said to Tom, “I’m going to find a better spot for us to camp” and walked away.
With no path to follow, Jane just walked on for quite a long time. After she had climbed to a high place, she turned around, hoping to see the lake. To her surprise, she saw nothing but forest and, far beyond, a snow-capped mountain top. She suddenly realized that she was lost.
“Tom!” she cried. “Help!”
No reply. If only she had not left her mobile phone in that bag with Tom. Jane kept moving, but the farther she walked, the more confused she became. As night was beginning to fall, Jane was so tired that she had to stop for the night. Lying awake in the dark, Jane wanted very much to be with Tom and her family. She wanted to hold him and tell him how much she loved him.
Jane rose at the break of day, hungry and thirsty. She could hear water trickling (滴落) somewhere at a distance. Quickly she followed the sound to a stream. To her great joy, she also saw some berry bushes. She drank and ate a few berries. Never in her life had she tasted anything better. Feeling stronger now, Jane began to walk along the stream and hope it would lead her to the lake.
As she picked her way carefully along the stream, Jane heard a helicopter. Is that for me? Unfortunately, the trees made it impossible for people to see her from above. A few minutes later, another helicopter flew overhead. Jane took off her yellow blouse, thinking that she should go to an open area and flag them if they came back again.

The Amazon rainforest, is as undisturbed a place as most people can imagine, but even there, the effects of a changing climate are becoming clear. Now, research suggests that many of the region’s most sensitive bird species are starting to evolve (进化) in reaction to warming.
Birds are often considered sentinel (哨兵) species meaning that they indicate the overall health of an ecosystem—so scientists are particularly interested in how they’re reacting to climate change. In general, the news has not been good. For instance, a 2019 report by the National Audubon Society found that more than two-thirds of North America’s bird species will be in danger of extinction by 2100 if warming trends continue on their current course.
For the new study, researchers collected the biggest data set so far on the Amazon’s resident birds, representing 77 non-migratory species and lasting the 40 years from 1979 to 2019. During the study period, the average temperature in the region rose, while the amount of rainfall dropped, making for a hotter, dryer climate overall. According to the report on November 12 in the journal Science Advances, 36 species have lost weight in great amounts, as much as 2 percent of their body weight per decade since 1980. Meanwhile, all the species showed some decrease in average body weight, while a third grew longer wings.
Because of the study’s long time series and large sample sizes, the authors are able to show the significant effects of climate change on local birds. They suppose smaller birds may have an easier time keeping cool. In general, smaller animals have a larger rate of surface area to body size, so they dissipate more heat faster than a bigger animal. However, the researchers themselves are unsure and wonder what advantage the wing length changes give the birds.
8. Why are scientists fond of doing research on birds?
A. They show unique behaviors. B. They are ecological health indicators.
C. They are in danger of extinction. D. They have evolved in reaction to warming.
9. What can we learn from the new study?
A. About 33% species evolved longer wings.
B. 36 species lost 2% of their body weight every year.
C. The climate in the Amazon becomes hotter and wetter.
D. The study focused on migratory species in the Amazon.
10. What does the underlined word “dissipate” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Put off. B. Give off. C. Put away. D. Give away.
11. What would probably the researchers further study?
A. The impact of climate change on birds.
B. The reason for the loss of bird’s weight.
C. The reason for smaller animals to keep cool.
D. The advantage of the change in birds’ wing length.
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. B 11. D
【解析】

【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Birds are often considered sentinel (哨兵) species meaning that they indicate the overall health of an ecosystem—so scientists are particularly interested in how they’re reacting to climate change.(鸟类通常被认为是哨兵物种,这意味着它们表明了生态系统的整体健康状况,因此科学家们对它们如何应对气候变化特别感兴趣。)”可知,科学家喜欢研究鸟是因为鸟是生态平衡的指标。故选B。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Meanwhile, all the species showed some decrease in average body weight, while a third grew longer wings.(同时,所有物种的平均体重都有所下降,而三分之一的物种的翅膀变长了。)”可知,约33%的物种长出更长的翅膀来应对气候变化,故选A。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线词前“They suppose smaller birds may have an easier time keeping cool. In general, smaller animals have a larger rate of surface area to body size(他们认为,体型较小的鸟类或许更容易保持凉爽。一般来说,体型较小的动物,其体表面积与身体大小的比率更大。)”可知,较小动物散发热量更快,dissipate的意思是“散发”,与give off(散发)的词义一致 。故选B。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“However, the researchers themselves are unsure and wonder what advantage the wing length changes give the birds.(然而,研究人员自己也不确定,他们想知道翅膀长度的变化给鸟类带来了什么好处。)”可知,研究人员可能会进一步研究鸟类翅膀长度变化的好处。故选D。

When visiting a doctor in the future, you can expect to be accompanied by a virtual version of yourself. This so-called digital twin will be a working model of your body that can be shown onto a physician’s computer screen. Updated with your latest vital signs, it will help the doctor make an accurate diagnosis (诊断) and provide personalized treatments for the patients.
No matter how unreal this might seem, the researchers at Queen Mary University of London (QMUL) already use computer simulations (模拟) of the hearts of patients to test different treatments for a heart disorder. It would be far too dangerous to experiment this way on someone’s real heart.
Digital twins are starting to be seen everywhere. They can not only monitor the health of jet engines on airliners, but also help carmakers spend fewer years on the development of new models by simulating test drives and crashes. All this is being powered by recent progress in artificial intelligence (AI), which gives twins the ability to make predictions about their physical counterparts (对应的事物), and adjust themselves based on new information..
Digital twins make it easier for humans to solve challenging problems, allowing people to have a look into the future. For businesses, this should mean better designs and operations. For society, the promise is also fascinating: personalized health care, and ways to prevent the earth from environmental disasters.
Could these virtual twins go out of control? They might if they are programmed badly, or hacked into. Digital twins will take in mountains of data, some of it wrong and much of it raising concerns about privacy. Yet those risks are a natural part of technological progress. The appearance of the digital mirror world will raise new questions, but its potential benefits are already easy to see.
12 Which of the following best describes a digital twin?
A. A virtual copy. B. A video game. C. A toy model. D. A medical database.
13. Why do researchers at QMUL use computer simulatıons of hearts?
A. To reduce the time of the heart operation.
B. To use real hearts much more conveniently.
C. To help increase the patients’ recovery rates.
D. To avoid the danger of experimenting on real hearts.
14. How does AI contribute to the development of digital twins?
A. It increases the efficiency of simulations through data analysis.
B. It creates accurate digital copies for medical and industrial use.
C. It enables digital twins to predict results and adapt on their own.
D. It improves virtual models by adding real-time monitoring features.
15. Which of the following is the most suitable title for the passage?
A. Digital Twins: A Potential Threat to Privacy
B. Digital Twins: The Future of Problem-Solving
C. Digital Twins: A New Age of Medical Treatment
D. Digital Twins: A Double-Edged Sword of Technology
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. C 15. B

【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:袁隆平,被誉为“杂交水稻之父”,是中国最著名的科学家之一。短语be known as表示“被称为”,此处过去分词作定语修饰Yuan Longping。故填known。
【37题详解】
考查名词。句意:他意识到农民们常常收成不佳,有时甚至会面临食物短缺的问题,于是他决定学习农业知识,并在西南农业学院接受了教育。短语a shortage of表示“缺乏”。故填shortage。

【42题详解】
考查形容词。句意:尽管袁的杂交水稻使他变得非常富有,但他对金钱却并不怎么在意。作宾补,表示“富有的”用形容词wealthy。故填wealthy。

任务型阅读
One weekend in July, Jane and her husband, Tom, drove three hours to camp overnight by a lake in the forest. Unfortunately, on the way an unpleasant subject came up and they started to quarrel. By the time they reached the lake, Jane was so angry that she said to Tom, “I’m going to find a better spot for us to camp” and walked away.
With no path to follow, Jane just walked on for quite a long time. After she had climbed to a high place, she turned around, hoping to see the lake. To her surprise, she saw nothing but forest and, far beyond, a snow-capped mountain top. She suddenly realized that she was lost.
“Tom!” she cried. “Help!”
No reply. If only she had not left her mobile phone in that bag with Tom. Jane kept moving, but the farther she walked, the more confused she became. As night was beginning to fall, Jane was so tired that she had to stop for the night. Lying awake in the dark, Jane wanted very much to be with Tom and her family. She wanted to hold him and tell him how much she loved him.
Jane rose at the break of day, hungry and thirsty. She could hear water trickling (滴落) somewhere at a distance. Quickly she followed the sound to a stream. To her great joy, she also saw some berry bushes. She drank and ate a few berries. Never in her life had she tasted anything better. Feeling stronger now, Jane began to walk along the stream and hope it would lead her to the lake.
As she picked her way carefully along the stream, Jane heard a helicopter. Is that for me? Unfortunately, the trees made it impossible for people to see her from above. A few minutes later, another helicopter flew overhead. Jane took off her yellow blouse, thinking that she should go to an open area and flag them if they came back again.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了简和丈夫汤姆在露营途中发生争吵,简生气离开后迷路,在森林中经历了一系列困难,最终看到直升机并想办法求救的故事。
【46题详解】
①根据第一段中“One weekend in July, Jane and her husband, Tom, drove three hours to camp overnight by a lake in the forest. Unfortunately, on the way an unpleasant subject came up and they started to quarrel. (七月的一个周末,简和她的丈夫汤姆驱车三个小时,在森林里的一个湖边露营过夜。不幸的是,在路上,一个不愉快的话题出现了,他们开始吵架)”可知,简和丈夫汤姆在去湖边露营的路上吵架,空处应用动词quarrel,文段描述过去的一般情况,应用一般过去时,动词应用过去式形式。故填quarreled/quarrelled。
②根据第一段中“By the time they reached the lake, Jane was so angry that she said to Tom, “I’m going to find a better spot for us to camp” and walked away. (当他们到达湖边时,简非常生气,她对汤姆说:“我要找个更好的地方露营”,然后走开了)”可知,简感觉生气,所以一时冲动,走开去找一个更好的露营地,空处应用名词anger的形容词形式angry,作表语。故填angry。
③根据第二段中“After she had climbed to a high place, she turned around, hoping to see the lake. To her surprise, she saw nothing but forest and, far beyond, a snow-capped mountain top. She suddenly realized that she was lost. (爬到高处后,她转过身来,希望能看到湖。令她惊讶的是,她只看到了森林,远远地,一座白雪皑皑的山顶。她突然意识到自己迷路了)”可知,简爬到高处时,意识到自己迷路了,空处应用动词realize,句中已有谓语found,realize应用非谓语动词形式,因其与逻辑主语she之间是主动关系,所以应用现在分词形式作状语。故填realizing。
④根据第三段““Tom!” she cried. “Help!” (“汤姆!”她喊道,“救命!”)”以及第四段中“If only she had not left her mobile phone in that bag with Tom. Jane kept moving, but the farther she walked, the more confused she became. (要是她没把手机和汤姆的东西一起落在那个包里就好了。简继续走着,但她越走越迷茫)”可知,简无法联系到汤姆,也找不到回去的路,她感到无助和困惑,空处应用形容词confused作表语。故填confused。
⑤根据第四段中“Lying awake in the dark, Jane wanted very much to be with Tom and her family. (简在黑暗中辗转反侧,难以入眠,她非常渴望能和汤姆以及家人在一起)”可知,简在黑暗中醒着躺着,空处应用形容词awake作表语。故填awake。
⑥根据第四段中“She wanted to hold him and tell him how much she loved him. (她想抱住他,告诉他自己有多爱他)”可知,简感到后悔,想告诉丈夫她有多爱他并向他说抱歉,空处应用形容词regretful作表语。故填regretful。
⑦根据第五段中“Jane rose at the break of day, hungry and thirsty. (简天一亮就起床了,又饿又渴)”以及“To her great joy, she also saw some berry bushes. She drank and ate a few berries. (令她非常高兴的是,她还看到了一些浆果丛。她喝了些水,吃了几颗浆果)”可知,简找到了小溪和一些浆果,解决了她的饥饿和口渴问题,空处与thirst并列,应用名词hunger。故填hunger。
⑧根据第五段中“Never in her life had she tasted anything better. Feeling stronger now, Jane began to walk along the stream and hope it would lead her to the lake. (她这辈子从来没尝过比这更好吃的东西。简感觉自己现在有力气了些,便开始沿着小溪走,希望它能把自己带到湖边)”可知,简感觉比以前更强壮了,空处应用形容词strong的比较级stronger作表语。故填stronger。
⑨根据最后一段中“Unfortunately, the trees made it impossible for people to see her from above. (不幸是,树木使得人们无法从上方看到她)”可知,树木遮住了简,使上面的人看不到她,空处应用动词cover,根据语境可知,此处描述过去发生的事情,应用一般过去时。故填covered。
⑩根据最后一段中“A few minutes later, another helicopter flew overhead. Jane took off her yellow blouse, thinking that she should go to an open area and flag them if they came back again. (几分钟后,又一架直升机从头顶飞过。简脱掉黄色衬衫,想着如果直升机再飞回来,她就去开阔地带向他们挥舞示意)”可知,直升机成为了简的希望之光,所以她决定去开阔地带,空处应用名词light。故填light。
【47题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第一段中“By the time they reached the lake, Jane was so angry that she said to Tom, “I’m going to find a better spot for us to camp” and walked away. (当他们到达湖边时,简非常生气,她对汤姆说:“我要找个更好的地方露营”,然后走开了)”以及第二段“With no path to follow, Jane just walked on for quite a long time. After she had climbed to a high place, she turned around, hoping to see the lake. To her surprise, she saw nothing but forest and, far beyond, a snow-capped mountain top. She suddenly realized that she was lost. (没有路可走,简只是走了很长一段时间。爬到高处后,她转过身来,希望能看到湖。令她惊讶的是,她只看到了森林,远远地,一座白雪皑皑的山顶。她突然意识到自己迷路了)”可知,简陷入麻烦,是因为她和丈夫吵架了,冲动地走进森林,没有注意方向。故答案为Jane got into trouble because she quarreled with her husband and walked away into the forest on an impulse without paying attention to the direction.
【48题详解】
考查细节理解。根据最后一段“As she picked her way carefully along the stream, Jane heard a helicopter. Is that for me? Unfortunately, the trees made it impossible for people to see her from above. A few minutes later, another helicopter flew overhead. Jane took off her yellow blouse, thinking that she should go to an open area and flag them if they came back again. (当简小心翼翼地沿着小溪走时,她听到了直升机的声音。那是给我的吗?不幸的是,树木使人们无法从上面看到她。几分钟后,另一架直升机飞过头顶。简脱下黄色上衣,心想如果他们再回来,她应该去一个开阔的地方给他们发出信号)”可知,如果直升机返回,简可能会像她计划的那样,脱下黄色上衣,从开阔地带向直升机发出信号,最终得救。故答案为Jane might be spotted by signaling to a helicopter from an open area when it returned, waving her yellow blouse.
【49题详解】
考查推理判断。根据第一段中“By the time they reached the lake, Jane was so angry that she said to Tom, “I’m going to find a better spot for us to camp” and walked away. (当他们到达湖边时,简非常生气,她对汤姆说:“我要找个更好的地方露营”,然后走开了)”以及第二段“With no path to follow, Jane just walked on for quite a long time. After she had climbed to a high place, she turned around, hoping to see the lake. To her surprise, she saw nothing but forest and, far beyond, a snow-capped mountain top. She suddenly realized that she was lost. (没有路可走,简只是走了很长一段时间。爬到高处后,她转过身来,希望能看到湖。令她惊讶的是,她只看到了森林,远远地,一座白雪皑皑的山顶。她突然意识到自己迷路了)”可知,由于没能在与丈夫汤姆的分歧中保持冷静,简没有做任何准备就离开,导致迷路,由此可推知,从这次经历中,简可能会学到在分歧中保持冷静的重要性,以及在陌生环境中做好准备和谨慎的必要性。故答案为Jane might learn the importance of staying calm during disagreements and the necessity of being cautious and prepared in unfamiliar environments.

I am looking forward to your reply!

【答案】Dear Jason,
I’m sorry to learn about your current trouble regarding the use of Al tools for your assignment. I can fully understand how you feel because I once also had the urge to rely on AI to handle my heavy academic tasks.
However, I firmly believe that AI should never take the place of our own thinking and hard work. Even though AI can indeed offer help in some aspects, but depending too much on it not only goes against the true meaning of learning but also damages academic honesty.
So, here are my suggestions. First, try to do your assignments more independently. You can use Al as a reference, but make sure to think and analyze by yourself. Second, have an honest talk with your teacher. Explain your situation and show that you’re willing to learn sincerely from now on.
Hope these ideas can be of some help to you. All the best.
I am looking forward to your reply!
Yours,
Li Hua
