The root of “courage” is “cor”, the Latin word for heart. Originally, courage meant “to speak one’s mind by telling all one’s heart”. While courage is often associated with heroism nowadays, I believe true courage lies in being open and honest about who we are and how we feel. I recently witnessed an example of true courage. During a mountain-climbing trip with my 15-year-old daughter and some college students, I noticed her struggling to keep up with the group. Despite my suggestions for having a rest, she persisted until she couldn’t breathe properly. Panicked, I called out to the front for help, but there was no response, and we had no cellphone signal. Fortunately, two students just came back to check on us. They offered assistance and calmed us down. As we continued at a slower pace, they shared their own experiences, from starting out as beginners like my daughter to becoming consistently among the first to reach the peak. “You know,” one of them said, looking at my daughter, “I was just like you when I started. But with practice and proper pace, you’ll get there too.” “Yeah, don’t let your lack of experience stop you,” the other added. “It’s okay to admit when you’re struggling or not feeling alright. In fact, it’s important to speak up and ask for help when you need it. That’s how we improve and grow.” Reaching the mountain top was a huge relief for both my daughter and me. However, the two students addressed the celebrating group directly, emphasizing the importance of staying together in tough environments. Their words led the group to apologize to us for overlooking our struggle. I was totally amazed at their bravery, and my daughter learned that it’s okay to be the least experienced in a group. Courage, I’ve come to realize, has a ripple effect. Each time we choose courage, we inspire those around us to be a little braver and make the world a little better. 4. Why does the author mention the original meaning of courage? A. To argue for the true essence of courage. B. To question the common belief of courage. C. To show the changing meaning of courage. D. To clarify different interpretations of courage. 5. What did one of the two students suggest the author’s daughter do? A. Keep a suitable pace. B. Seek professional suggestions. C. Challenge her own limit. D. Stay with experienced climbers. 6. Which behavior shows true courage according to the author? A. The two students stayed with them. B. The author’s daughter tried hard not to fall behind. C. The group celebrated their arrival at the mountain top. D. The two students pointed out the group’s indifference. 7. What does the author intend to tell us? A. Courage means bravery in everything. B. Most people with courage can succeed. C. A beginner has to go through more struggles. D. We don’t have to be a hero without asking for help. 【答案】4. A 5. A 6. D 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者和女儿在登山过程中遇到困难，两位学生的帮助和鼓励，以及他们的勇气对团队产生的影响。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Originally, courage meant “to speak one’s mind by telling all one’s heart”. While courage is often associated with heroism nowadays, I believe true courage lies in being open and honest about who we are and how we feel.(最初，勇气意味着“说出自己的心声”。虽然现在勇气往往与英雄主义联系在一起，但我相信真正的勇气在于对我们是谁以及我们的感受保持开放和诚实)”可推知，作者提到勇气的原始含义是为了论证勇气的真正本质是什么。故选A项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段““You know,” one of them said, looking at my daughter, “I was just like you when I started. But with practice and proper pace, you’ll get there too.”(“你知道吗，”其中一个人看着我的女儿说，“我刚开始的时候和你一样。但只要练习和适当的节奏，你也会到达那里的。”)”可知，其中一位学生建议作者的女儿保持适当的登山速度。故选A项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“However, the two students addressed the celebrating group directly, emphasizing the importance of staying together in tough environments. Their words led the group to apologize to us for overlooking our struggle.(然而，这两名学生直接向庆祝小组发表了讲话，强调了在恶劣环境中保持团结的重要性。他们的话导致该组织向我们道歉，因为他们忽视了我们的挣扎)”可推知，两位学生指出团队忽视作者母女二人登山时的挣扎的冷漠行为，是真正的勇气的体现。故选D项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“While courage is often associated with heroism nowadays, I believe true courage lies in being open and honest about who we are and how we feel.(虽然现在勇气往往与英雄主义联系在一起，但我相信真正的勇气在于对我们是谁以及我们的感受保持开放和诚实)”和第五段“It’s okay to admit when you’re struggling or not feeling alright. In fact, it’s important to speak up and ask for help when you need it. That’s how we improve and grow.(当你挣扎或感觉不舒服时，承认是可以的。事实上，当你需要帮助时，大声说出来并寻求帮助是很重要的。这就是我们改进和成长的方式)”可推知，作者指出了勇气的真正含义就是在需要帮助的时候能勇敢地说出自己的想法和感受，即作者想要告诉我们不一定要成为英雄才能勇敢。故选D项。 C Back in 2018, scientists at Duke University discovered that each time our eyes move, our ears make a squeaking (吱吱声) noise, which is hard or unable to hear. Now, the researchers have developed a method of telling where a person is looking by analyzing those sounds. Although we don’t consciously hear the noises, they can be picked up by a highly sensitive microphone placed in the ear canal. Lead scientist Professor Jennifer Groh believes that they may occur as eye movements trigger the brain to contract either the middle ear muscles or the hair cells — doing the former helps dampen loud noises, while doing the latter amplifies (放大) quiet ones. This arrangement could help us make sense of our surroundings, by automatically adjusting the sensitivity of our hearing based on what we’re looking at. In a recent experiment, Groh’s team and Professor Christopher Shera from the University of Southern California recruited 16 adults, all with good vision and hearing, to take a simple test. The volunteers started by visually tracking the movements of a green dot on a computer screen, without moving their heads. As they did so, an eye-tracking camera recorded the direction of their gaze, while microphones in their ear canals recorded their ear sounds. When the eye video and ear audio recordings were subsequently cross-referenced, it was found that eye movements in specific directions produced specific types of ear noises. The scientists were thus able to tell where a participant’s gaze was focused, simply by identifying what sort of noise “signature” their ears were making. It was also possible to do the opposite — the researchers could accurately tell what sort of sounds the volunteers’ ears were making, by tracking the direction of their gaze. It is hoped that the team’s findings will contribute to a better understanding of human perception (感知), possibly leading to more accurate and informative hearing tests. “If each part of the ear contributes individual rules for the eardrum signal, then they could be used as a type of clinical tool to assess which part of the anatomy in the ear is malfunctioning,” said Stephanie Lovich, one of the lead authors of the paper and a graduate student in psychology& neuroscience at Duke. 8. Why do the ear noises occur according to Professor Jennifer Groh? A. Some noises echo in the ear canal occasionally. B. The head moves too quickly along with the ears. C. A highly sensitive microphone usually causes the noises. D. The brain contracts muscles or hair cells with eye movements. 9. What potential outcome do the researchers anticipate from their findings? A. Creating a new type of hearing aid. B. Enhancing the design of microphones. C. Understanding human perception better. D. Replacing traditional vision tests with new technology. 10. What does Stephanie Lovich think of these findings? A. Complex. B. Promising. C. Faulty. D. Primitive. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. The human perception is complex. B. Eye movements lead to brain responses. C. Scientists know what your eyes talk to your ears. D. The evolution of hearing is discovered by scientists. 【答案】8 D 9. C 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了科学家发现眼睛移动时耳朵会产生声音，并开发出通过分析这些声音来判断人的注视方向的方法，还介绍了相关实验及研究的意义。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Lead scientist Professor Jennifer Groh believes that they may occur as eye movements trigger the brain to contract either the middle ear muscles or the hair cells — doing the former helps dampen loud noises, while doing the latter amplifies quiet ones.(首席科学家Jennifer Groh教授认为，这可能是因为眼球运动触发了大脑收缩中耳肌肉或毛细胞——前者有助于抑制噪音，而后者则放大安静的声音。)”可知，Jennifer Groh教授认为耳音的出现是因为大脑会随着眼睛的运动收缩肌肉或毛细胞。故选D项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“It is hoped that the team’s findings will contribute to a better understanding of human perception (感知), possibly leading to more accurate and informative hearing tests.(希望该小组的研究结果将有助于更好地理解人类感知，可能带来更准确和信息丰富的听力测试。)”可知，研究人员预计他们的发现能更好地理解人类感知。故选C项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“If each part of the ear contributes individual rules for the eardrum signal, then they could be used as a type of clinical tool to assess which part of the anatomy in the ear is malfunctioning,” said Stephanie Lovich, one of the lead authors of the paper and a graduate student in psychology& neuroscience at Duke.(如果耳朵的每个部分都为耳膜信号贡献了单独的规则，那么它们就可以作为一种临床工具来评估耳朵的哪个解剖部位出现了故障，”该论文的主要作者之一、杜克大学心理学和神经科学研究生Stephanie Lovich说”。)”可知，Stephanie Lovich认为这些发现是有希望的。故选B项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Back in 2018, scientists at Duke University discovered that each time our eyes move, our ears make a squeaking noise, which is hard or unable to hear. Now, the researchers have developed a method of telling where a person is looking by analyzing those sounds.(早在2018年，杜克大学的科学家就发现，每次我们的眼睛移动时，耳朵都会发出吱吱声，这种声音很难或无法听到。现在，研究人员已经开发出一种通过分析这些声音来判断一个人在看哪里的方法。)”和下文内动可知，文章主要讲述了科学家发现眼睛移动时耳朵会产生声音，并开发出通过分析这些声音来判断人的注视方向的方法，还介绍了相关实验及研究的意义，所以文章的最佳标题是C项“科学家知道你的眼睛和耳朵在说什么”，故选C项。 D Teachers across the country are dealing with whether to view AI tools like ChatGPT as friend or foe in the classroom. My research shows that the answer isn’t always simple. It can be both. Increasingly, students are using AI to help with their schoolwork. Students tend to view AI as having a positive impact on their creativity. In our study, 100% of participants using AI found it helpful for brainstorming. Only 16% of students preferred to brainstorm without AI. The students in this study generated more diverse and detailed ideas when using AI. They found that AI was useful for starting brainstorming sessions. Other research has shown that AI can also serve as a nonjudgmental partner for brainstorming, which can boost a free stream of ideas they might normally withhold in a group setting. The downside of brainstorming with AI was that some students voice d concerns about overreliance on the technology. They feared it might undermine their own thoughts and, consequently, confidence in their creative abilities. Some students reported a “fixation of the mind”, meaning that once they saw the AI’s ideas, they had a hard time coming up with their own. Some students also questioned the originality of ideas generated by AI. The research supported these opinions. We noted that while using ChatGPT improved students’ creative output individually, the AI ideas tended to be repetitive overall. This is likely due to generative AI recycling existing content rather than creating original thought. The study results indicate that allowing students to practice creativity independently first will strengthen their belief in themselves and their abilities. Once they accomplish this, AI can be useful for furthering their learning, much like teaching long division to students before introducing a calculator. As generative AI gains popularity, schools are pressed to set guidelines to ensure these tools are used responsibly. Some states have already developed guidelines for AI in education. Ethical considerations are vital for a positive relationship between creativity and AI. Our team will continue to research the effect of AI on students’ creativity, exploring its impact on agency, confidence and other phases of the creative process. AI in education is not just about the latest technology. It’s about shaping a future where human creativity and technological advancement progress hand in hand. 12. What can AI do when serving as a nonjudgmental partner for brainstorming? A. Inspire the expression of unspoken ideas. B. Provide the group with detailed facts. C. Compare the ideas with each other. D. Evaluate a free stream of ideas. 13. What does the underlined word “undermine” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Promote. B. Weaken. C. Reveal. D. Judge. 14. What is crucial to students when using AI for their schoolwork? A. Ethical considerations. B. Practicing brainstorm consistently. C. Avoiding fixation of the mind. D. Independent and creative thinking. 15. What will the team’s next focus be? A The advantage of AI in education. B. The originality of ideas generated by AI. C. The impact of AI on students’ innovation. D. The ability of AI to communicate with humans. 【答案】12. A 13. B 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。研究发现，人工智能可能有助于学生更好地解决问题，但也会阻碍他们的创造性思维的形成。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Other research has shown that AI can also serve as a nonjudgmental partner for brainstorming, which can boost a free stream of ideas they might normally withhold in a group setting.(其他研究表明，人工智能还可以作为头脑风暴的非评判伙伴，这可以促进他们通常在群体环境中保留的想法的自由流动)”可知，作为头脑风暴的非评判伙伴，人工智能能激发未说出口的想法的表达。故选A。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“The downside of brainstorming with AI was that some students voice d concerns about overreliance on the technology.(与人工智能进行头脑风暴的缺点是，一些学生表达了对过度依赖这项技术的担忧)”以及后文“their own thoughts and, consequently, confidence in their creative abilities(他们自己的想法，从而削弱他们对自己的创造力的信心)”可知，一些学生表达了对过度依赖这项技术的担忧，他们担心这项技术可能会逐渐削弱他们自己的思维，从而削弱他们对自己的创造力的信心。故划线词意思是“削弱”。故选B。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“The study results indicate that allowing students to practice creativity independently first will strengthen their belief in themselves and their abilities. Once they accomplish this, AI can be useful for furthering their learning, much like teaching long division to students before introducing a calculator.(研究结果表明，首先让学生独立实践创造力，可以增强他们对自己的信心和能力。一旦他们做到了这一点，人工智能就可以帮助他们进一步学习，就像在介绍计算器之前教学生长除法一样)”可知，在使用人工智能完成作业时，独立和创造性思维对学生来说至关重要的。故选D。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Our team will continue to research the effect of AI on students’ creativity, exploring its impact on agency, confidence and other phases of the creative process.(我们的团队将继续研究人工智能对学生创造力的影响，探索其对代理、信心和创作过程其他阶段的影响)”可知，团队的下一个重点是人工智能对学生创新的影响。故选C。 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 When teachers are in tune with their emotions and those of their colleagues, it’s easier to work cooperatively. ____16____ However, when members of these teams display emotional intelligence (EQ) through an increased awareness of their emotions and the emotions or feelings of others, the groups are more productive. The following are some strategies to make use of in order to increase emotional intelligence among staff members within teams. ____17____ Active listening is a very important component of building relationships among all stakeholders within a community. Coaching small groups allows for intimate relationships to be formed among teammates. It’s a great way to have members practice in a small group setting while developing community norms to build trust. Use conversation protocols. Protocols such as “glow and grow” and “3, 2, 1” area great way to help guide conversations. They allow time for introverts (内向的人) to process and communicate while having the outgoing persons monitor how much talk time they have and practice letting others take the floor. Protocols can help teammates build permanent practice on how meetings and conversations are held. ____18____ Hold reflective discussions about individual and team practices. Reflection is one of the most powerful characteristics. It allows for self-reflection and reflecting on the emotions and feelings of others in relation to your actions and feelings. ____19____ It allows for all to take accountability and ownership in their part to play in the development of the team and productivity. Emotional intelligence within schools is at the heart of the interconnectedness of the heart and mind. As educational therapist Anna T. McDonald says, “____20____ In times of crisis, having this type of intelligence allows us to think rationally and temp er our emotions with patience and understanding. We think before we act, practice good decision-making, and foster positive interpersonal relationships.” A. Discussions are common in school. B. High EQ makes conversations easier. C. This practice can promote productivity. D. Conduct small group coaching on active listening. E. At the heart of every successful school are collaborative teams. F. Having high EQ enables us to handle the challenges we might encounter. G. Reflective conversations allow team members to discuss their strengths and areas of growth. 【答案】16. E 17. D 18. C 19. G 20. F 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要提出了一些可以用来提高团队成员情商的策略。 【16题详解】 根据上文“When teachers are in tune with their emotions and those of their colleagues, it’s easier to work cooperatively.(当老师们的情绪和同事们的情绪一致时，合作工作就更容易了)”以及后文“However, when members of these teams display emotional intelligence (EQ) through an increased awareness of their emotions and the emotions or feelings of others, the groups are more productive. The following are some strategies to make use of in order to increase emotional intelligence among staff members within teams.(然而，当这些团队的成员通过提高对自己的情绪和他人的情绪或感受的意识来表现出情商（EQ）时，这个团队的效率会更高。以下是一些可以用来提高团队成员情商的策略)”可知，上文提到了老师们情绪一致让合作工作更加容易，即强调了团队合作的重要性。故E选项“每个成功学校的核心都是合作的团队”符合语境，故选E。 【17题详解】 根据后文“Active listening is a very important component of building relationships among all stakeholders within a community. Coaching small groups allows for intimate relationships to be formed among teammates. It’s a great way to have members practice in a small group setting while developing community norms to build trust.(积极倾听是在社区内所有利益相关者之间建立关系的重要组成部分。指导小团队可以让队友之间形成亲密的关系。这是一个很好的方法，让成员在一个小组环境中练习，同时发展社区规范来建立信任)”可知，本段主要强调了积极倾听的作用，D选项中active listening对应后文Active listening。故D选项“对积极倾听进行小组辅导”符合语境，故选D。 【18题详解】 根据上文“Protocols can help teammates build permanent practice on how meetings and conversations are held.(协议可以帮助团队成员建立关于如何举行会议和对话的永久实践)”可知，后文提到了协议可以有助于团队成员举行会议和对话，本句为本段最后一句，故承接上文，总结这一做法的好处。故C选项“这种做法可以提高生产力”符合语境，故选C。 【19题详解】 根据上文“It allows for self-reflection and reflecting on the emotions and feelings of others in relation to your actions and feelings.(它允许自我反思和反思他人的情绪和感受与你的行为和感受的关系)”可知，上文提到了自我反思和反思他人，G选项中Reflective对应上文self-reflection and reflecting。故G选项“反思式对话允许团队成员讨论他们的优势和成长领域”符合语境，故选G。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Emotional intelligence within schools is at the heart of the interconnectedness of the heart and mind. As educational therapist Anna T. McDonald says (在学校里，情商是心灵和思想相互联系的核心。正如教育治疗师Anna T. McDonald所说……)”以及后文“In times of crisis, having this type of intelligence allows us to think rationally and temp er our emotions with patience and understanding. We think before we act, practice good decision-making, and foster positive interpersonal relationships.(在危机时刻，拥有这种智力可以让我们理性思考，用耐心和理解来缓和我们的情绪。我们三思而后行，练习正确的决策，培养积极的人际关系)”可知，本句主要是Anna T.

The town square was filled with stalls featuring homemade goods, crafts, and an array of local produce. Brightly colored leaves adorned the trees and lamp posts, and the smell of pumpkin pie and apple cider filled the air. Children ran about playing hide-and-seek and laughing, while their parents sat together, sharing stories and enjoying the festive atmosphere. One of the main attractions at the festival was the pie-baking contest, which always drew a large crowd. This year, the competition was fierce, with more participants than ever. Among the contestants was Mrs Ellen Baker, a retired schoolteacher and a famous baker in Greendale. Her apple pies were famous for their flaky crust and perfectly spiced filling. As she placed her entry on the judges’ table, she noticed the nervous faces of the other contestants, especially young Tommy, a first-timer who had entered his grandmother’s cherry pie recipe. Tommy had spent weeks practicing, determined to honor his grandmother’s legacy (遗产). The pie looked beautiful, but as he watched the judges sampling different entries, his confidence began to decrease. Mrs Baker, noticing his anxiety, gave him a reassuring smile. She remembered her first competition, the nerves, and the excitement. And she knew just how much courage it took to put one’s baking skills on display. The judges made their rounds, tasting, noting, and occasionally nodding in approval. The crowd waited eagerly, whispering predictions and cheering for their favorite bakers. As the announcement time drew near, Tommy’s hands trembled slightly — this moment could be a turning point for him. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右; (2)请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Tommy watched as the judges discussed among themselves, occasionally glancing at his pie. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Finally, the judge stepped forward to announce the winners. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Tommy watched as the judges discussed among themselves, occasionally glancing at his pie. He tried to read their expressions, searching for any sign of approval, his mind racing with possibilities. His heart raced as he saw them nod appreciatively while discussing his entry, their nods and murmurs of agreement a promising sign. Mrs Baker caught his eye and winked, her confidence in him unspoken but clearly conveyed, a warm smile spreading across her face. Tommy felt a wave of hope; maybe, just maybe, his grandmother’s recipe had impressed them, and he would finally receive the recognition he deserved. Finally, the judge stepped forward to announce the winners. The crowd quieted, eager to hear the results. “Third place goes to Tommy for his outstanding cherry pie!” The audience erupted in applause as Tommy’s face lit up with a proud smile. He accepted his ribbon, feeling grateful and proud of his achievement. His hard work and his grandmother’s beloved recipe had paid off, earning recognition and praise from the judges and the crowd. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了汤米参加了镇上的馅饼烘焙比赛，决心纪念祖母的遗产。参赛者中有埃伦·贝克夫人，她是一名退休教师，也是格林德尔著名的面包师。汤米在等待评委们评判的时候十分紧张，是贝克夫人给了他认可，最终他的馅饼取得了第三名。他的努力和祖母心爱的食谱得到了回报，赢得了评委和观众的认可和赞扬。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“汤米看着评委们互相讨论，偶尔瞥一眼他的馅饼”可知，第一段可描写汤米在等待评委们评判的时候十分紧张，是贝克夫人给了他认可。 ②由第二段首句内容“最后，裁判走上前来宣布获胜者”可知，第二段可描写裁判宣布汤米取得了第三名，他的努力和祖母心爱的食谱得到了回报，赢得了评委和观众的认可和赞扬。 2.续写线索：等待评委讨论——感到紧张——贝克夫人认可——宣布获胜者——取得第三名——汤米感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①点亮：light up/brighten ②表达：convey/express ③取得回报：pay off/gain payback 情绪类 ①感激：grateful/thankful ②自豪：feel proud of/take pride in 【点睛】[高分句型1] He tried to read their expressions, searching for any sign of approval, his mind racing with possibilities.

B Courage is a huge theme in my life, a quality I constantly seek, appreciate, and analyze. The root of “courage” is “cor”, the Latin word for heart. Originally, courage meant “to speak one’s mind by telling all one’s heart”. While courage is often associated with heroism nowadays, I believe true courage lies in being open and honest about who we are and how we feel. I recently witnessed an example of true courage. During a mountain-climbing trip with my 15-year-old daughter and some college students, I noticed her struggling to keep up with the group. Despite my suggestions for having a rest, she persisted until she couldn’t breathe properly. Panicked, I called out to the front for help, but there was no response, and we had no cellphone signal. Fortunately, two students just came back to check on us. They offered assistance and calmed us down. As we continued at a slower pace, they shared their own experiences, from starting out as beginners like my daughter to becoming consistently among the first to reach the peak. “You know,” one of them said, looking at my daughter, “I was just like you when I started. But with practice and proper pace, you’ll get there too.” “Yeah, don’t let your lack of experience stop you,” the other added. “It’s okay to admit when you’re struggling or not feeling alright. In fact, it’s important to speak up and ask for help when you need it. That’s how we improve and grow.” Reaching the mountain top was a huge relief for both my daughter and me. However, the two students addressed the celebrating group directly, emphasizing the importance of staying together in tough environments. Their words led the group to apologize to us for overlooking our struggle. I was totally amazed at their bravery, and my daughter learned that it’s okay to be the least experienced in a group. Courage, I’ve come to realize, has a ripple effect. Each time we choose courage, we inspire those around us to be a little braver and make the world a little better. 4. Why does the author mention the original meaning of courage? A. To argue for the true essence of courage. B. To question the common belief of courage. C. To show the changing meaning of courage. D. To clarify different interpretations of courage. 5. What did one of the two students suggest the author’s daughter do? A. Keep a suitable pace. B. Seek professional suggestions. C. Challenge her own limit. D. Stay with experienced climbers. 6. Which behavior shows true courage according to the author? A. The two students stayed with them. B. The author’s daughter tried hard not to fall behind. C. The group celebrated their arrival at the mountain top. D. The two students pointed out the group’s indifference. 7. What does the author intend to tell us? A. Courage means bravery in everything. B. Most people with courage can succeed. C. A beginner has to go through more struggles. D. We don’t have to be a hero without asking for help. C Back in 2018, scientists at Duke University discovered that each time our eyes move, our ears make a squeaking (吱吱声) noise, which is hard or unable to hear. Now, the researchers have developed a method of telling where a person is looking by analyzing those sounds. Although we don’t consciously hear the noises, they can be picked up by a highly sensitive microphone placed in the ear canal. Lead scientist Professor Jennifer Groh believes that they may occur as eye movements trigger the brain to contract either the middle ear muscles or the hair cells — doing the former helps dampen loud noises, while doing the latter amplifies (放大) quiet ones. This arrangement could help us make sense of our surroundings, by automatically adjusting the sensitivity of our hearing based on what we’re looking at. In a recent experiment, Groh’s team and Professor Christopher Shera from the University of Southern California recruited 16 adults, all with good vision and hearing, to take a simple test. The volunteers started by visually tracking the movements of a green dot on a computer screen, without moving their heads. As they did so, an eye-tracking camera recorded the direction of their gaze, while microphones in their ear canals recorded their ear sounds. When the eye video and ear audio recordings were subsequently cross-referenced, it was found that eye movements in specific directions produced specific types of ear noises. The scientists were thus able to tell where a participant’s gaze was focused, simply by identifying what sort of noise “signature” their ears were making. It was also possible to do the opposite — the researchers could accurately tell what sort of sounds the volunteers’ ears were making, by tracking the direction of their gaze. It is hoped that the team’s findings will contribute to a better understanding of human perception (感知), possibly leading to more accurate and informative hearing tests. “If each part of the ear contributes individual rules for the eardrum signal, then they could be used as a type of clinical tool to assess which part of the anatomy in the ear is malfunctioning,” said Stephanie Lovich, one of the lead authors of the paper and a graduate student in psychology& neuroscience at Duke. 8. Why do the ear noises occur according to Professor Jennifer Groh? A. Some noises echo in the ear canal occasionally. B The head moves too quickly along with the ears. C. A highly sensitive microphone usually causes the noises. D. The brain contracts muscles or hair cells with eye movements. 9. What potential outcome do the researchers anticipate from their findings? A Creating a new type of hearing aid. B. Enhancing the design of microphones. C. Understanding human perception better. D. Replacing traditional vision tests with new technology. 10. What does Stephanie Lovich think of these findings? A. Complex. B. Promising. C. Faulty. D. Primitive. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. The human perception is complex. B. Eye movements lead to brain responses. C. Scientists know what your eyes talk to your ears. D. The evolution of hearing is discovered by scientists. D Teachers across the country are dealing with whether to view AI tools like ChatGPT as friend or foe in the classroom. My research shows that the answer isn’t always simple. It can be both. Increasingly, students are using AI to help with their schoolwork. Students tend to view AI as having a positive impact on their creativity. In our study, 100% of participants using AI found it helpful for brainstorming. Only 16% of students preferred to brainstorm without AI. The students in this study generated more diverse and detailed ideas when using AI. They found that AI was useful for starting brainstorming sessions. Other research has shown that AI can also serve as a nonjudgmental partner for brainstorming, which can boost a free stream of ideas they might normally withhold in a group setting. The downside of brainstorming with AI was that some students voice d concerns about overreliance on the technology. They feared it might undermine their own thoughts and consequently, confidence in their creative abilities. Some students reported a “fixation of the mind”, meaning that once they saw the AI’s ideas, they had a hard time coming up with their own. Some students also questioned the originality of ideas generated by AI. The research supported these opinions. We noted that while using ChatGPT improved students’ creative output individually, the AI ideas tended to be repetitive overall. This is likely due to generative AI recycling existing content rather than creating original thought. The study results indicate that allowing students to practice creativity independently first will strengthen their belief in themselves and their abilities. Once they accomplish this, AI can be useful for furthering their learning, much like teaching long division to students before introducing a calculator. As generative AI gains popularity, schools are pressed to set guidelines to ensure these tools are used responsibly. Some states have already developed guidelines for AI in education. Ethical considerations are vital for a positive relationship between creativity and AI. Our team will continue to research the effect of AI on students’ creativity, exploring its impact on agency, confidence and other phases of the creative process. AI in education is not just about the latest technology. It’s about shaping a future where human creativity and technological advancement progress hand in hand. 12. What can AI do when serving as a nonjudgmental partner for brainstorming? A. Inspire the expression of unspoken ideas. B. Provide the group with detailed facts. C. Compare the ideas with each other. D. Evaluate a free stream of ideas. 13. What does the underlined word “undermine” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Promote. B. Weaken. C. Reveal. D. Judge. 14. What is crucial to students when using AI for their schoolwork? A. Ethical considerations. B. Practicing brainstorm consistently. C. Avoiding fixation of the mind. D.

The town square was filled with stalls featuring homemade goods, crafts, and an array of local produce. Brightly colored leaves adorned the trees and lamp posts, and the smell of pumpkin pie and apple cider filled the air. Children ran about playing hide-and-seek and laughing, while their parents sat together, sharing stories and enjoying the festive atmosphere. One of the main attractions at the festival was the pie-baking contest, which always drew a large crowd. This year, the competition was fierce, with more participants than ever. Among the contestants was Mrs Ellen Baker, a retired schoolteacher and a famous baker in Greendale. Her apple pies were famous for their flaky crust and perfectly spiced filling. As she placed her entry on the judges’ table, she noticed the nervous faces of the other contestants, especially young Tommy, a first-timer who had entered his grandmother’s cherry pie recipe. Tommy had spent weeks practicing, determined to honor his grandmother’s legacy (遗产). The pie looked beautiful, but as he watched the judges sampling different entries, his confidence began to decrease. Mrs Baker, noticing his anxiety, gave him a reassuring smile. She remembered her first competition, the nerves, and the excitement. And she knew just how much courage it took to put one’s baking skills on display. The judges made their rounds, tasting, noting, and occasionally nodding in approval. The crowd waited eagerly, whispering predictions and cheering for their favorite bakers. As the announcement time drew near, Tommy’s hands trembled slightly — this moment could be a turning point for him. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右; (2)请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Tommy watched as the judges discussed among themselves, occasionally glancing at his pie. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Finally, the judge stepped forward to announce the winners. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
