But for many people around the world, especially those in impoverished (贫困的) areas, having dental improvement and their teeth checked simply isn’t possible. A Brazilian dentist Felipe Rossi has devoted himself to helping changing that situation. Growing up in USA, Felipe Rossi had just obtained the Bachelor of Medicine Degree and was about to start a master’s degree in Pediatric Dentistry (儿童口腔学) when a journey to his father’s home — Balsabo in Brazil — converted his initial plan. “All locals didn’t have access to dental care, and consequently, many of them suffered deformed teeth or even loss of teeth, leading to many people not daring to laugh with mouth open.” Felipe Rossi recalled. “A desire was planted in my heart. That is, to use my skills to bring healthy smiles to people suffering from dental problems.” With the support of his parents, Felipe formed an NGO (non-government organization) called Porsorriso to give free oral treatments to individuals with low incomes who require cleaning. fillings, crowns, restoration work and more. His team is composed of approximately 30 registered volunteers who go with him to poor towns and villages in Brazil. Sponsorship is generally provided by two private companies. Individuals may also make donations through the ‘Smile Solidarity’ program, where they can choose monthly amounts to contribute. Porsorriso also holds regular fundraisers to afford the cost of providing free dental services around the country. As noble as its objective is Felipe admits that Porsorriso is “struggling to survive” because of the huge cost of providing dental work and the constant fundraising events they have to hold to keep the NGO in normal functioning. “Challenging as it is, it did bring healthy teeth as well as renewed confidence to the locals. We will continue this transformative act whatever difficulties we will face”. Felipe said with a strong will. 4. How does the author introduce the topic of the text? A. By posing a contrast. B. By reporting an event. C. By assuming a situation. D. By making an appeal. 5. What motivated Felipe to offer dental treatments to Brazilians? A. The support from his parents. B. The passion for dental health. C. The encounter with local s lacking dental care. D The professional skills and knowledge from college. 6. Which of the following can best describe Felipe Rossi? A. Hopeful and diligent. B. Faithful and ambitious. C Intelligent and creative. D. Charitable and dedicated. 7. What do we know about Porsorriso? A. It gives free oral treatments to anyone in need. B. It is cooperated by Felipe Rossi and the local authority. C. It is financially supported by corporations and individuals. D. It holds regular fundraisers to educate people about dental care. (★)C Beneath the quiet surface of a forest lies a busy network scientists call the “Wood Wide Web”. Far from being isolated individuals, trees communicate, share resources, and even send warnings through an underground system of fungi (真菌). The key players in this hidden conversation are mycorrhizal fungi. These thread-like organisms connect tree roots, forming vast networks. Research from the University of British Columbia reveals that up to 90% of land plants depend on these fungi. Through this interdependent relationship, trees exchange nutrients like carbon and nitrogen. Older “mother trees” often act as hubs, sending extra sugars to younger saplings struggling in shaded areas — a phenomenon called “forest family connections”. When under attack, trees release chemical signals. A 2023 study in Nature Ecology & Evolution demonstrates that acacia trees (金合欢树) bitten by giraffes produce ethylene (乙烯) gas. Nearby trees pick up these chemical signals from the air within minutes and increase tannin (鞣酸) production, making their leaves bitter and less tasty. Similarly, pine trees attacked by beetles send out warning signals through fungal networks, pushing neighbors to boost defensive resins (树脂). Not all interactions are cooperative. Some plants, like the ghost orchid, hack the network to steal nutrients from nearby trees without offering anything in return. Other species, such as black walnut trees, release toxins (毒素) to restrain competitors — a strategy called “biological warfare” by ecologists. Understanding this “social network” challenges traditional views of forests. Logging dominant mother trees can collapse entire ecosystems, much like removing servers from the Internet. Scientists now advocate for selective cutting practices that preserve fungal networks, ensuring forests’ resilience (适应力) to climate change. As author Peter Wohlleben notes in The Hidden Life of Trees, “Forests are super-organisms with intelligence we’re just beginning to decode.” This silent dialogue beneath our feet reminds us that nature’s deepest conversations often happen without a single word. 8. What method do acacia trees use to warn nearby trees of giraffe feeding? A. Producing defensive resins in bark. B. Transmitting electrical signals through roots. C. Releasing a warning gas into the air. D. Increasing sugar distribution via fungal networks. 9. What does “biological warfare” refer to in paragraph 4? A. Using chemicals to kill insects. B. Releasing poisons to contain competitors. C. Fighting for sunlight through height. D. Stealing nutrients via underground roots. 10. Why should mother trees be preserved according to scientists? A. They attract diverse wildlife species. B. They offer young trees nutrients. C. They battle against climate change. D. They maintain ecosystem stability. 11. What’s the main idea of the text? A. The defensive strategies of trees. B. The cooperative interaction between trees. C. The important role of mother trees. D. The hidden communication among trees. (★)D In a stimulating interview with the philosopher Daniel Dennett in Living on Earth, Dennett shared that Charles Darwin and Alan Turing might make the same discovery. Darwin showed how you can get the appearance of purpose and design out of blind processes of natural selection. And Turing said that any computable problem can be computed by a machine without understanding. The host then voiced a concern: as AI advances, machines will come to lord over us. Dennett acknowledges there’s a takeover risk but claims it’s misunderstood. The risk is not that machines will become autonomous rulers but that we will depend too much on machines. The main issue with AI is not intelligence but autonomy. At the end of the day, even the smartest computers are our tools, and their intentions are ours. Or, to the extent that we can speak of their intentions at all—for example, the intention of a self-driving car to avoid an obstacle—we have in mind something it’s designed to do. Our growing dependence on technologies doesn’t mean we are losing our natural autonomy in quite this sense. Our needs remain. But it is a loss of autonomy. Even auto mechanics these days rely on computers and, in the era of self-driving cars, will any of us still know how to drive? Think what would happen if we lost electricity? We’d be thrown back into the 19th century, as Dennett says. But things would be worse, as we lack know-how that made it possible for our ancestors to live well in the olden days. The truth is, we’ve been technological since our dawn as a species. We first found ourselves in the archaeological record where we saw a great exposition of tools, technologies, art-making and language. In a sense, being human means being like a cyborg, which is a technological extension of our natural selves. This suggests that at any time in our development, a large-scale breakdown in the technological system would spell not exactly our doom, but our complete reorganization. Perhaps what makes our current dilemma unprecedented (史无前例的) is the fact that we are so closely networked. When the library of Alexandria burned down, books and knowledge were lost. But in a world where libraries are replaced by their online versions, it isn’t unimaginable that every library could be simply deleted. What happens to us then? 12. Which of the following statements might Dennett most likely agree with? A. AI’s development is bounded. B. AI doesn’t have comprehension. C. AI might be overly relied on. D. AI’s evolution resembles natural selection. 13. Which of the following examples best matches the idea of “know-how” in paragraph 4? A. A farmer crafts a table with ancient tools. B. A nobleman hires servants to do housework. C. A chef prepares a dish with electronic aids. D. A student uses a calculator for math tasks. 14. Why did the author mention libraries in paragraph 6? A. To show the technological stability. B. To emphasize the technological weakness. C. To prove the technological safeguard. D. To illustrate the technological transformation. 15. What would be the best title for the text? A. Is the Concern Artificial Intelligence or Autonomy? B. How will Technology Breakdown Change Our Lives? C. How does the Human-Technology Relationship Develop? D. Will Artificial Autonomy Threaten Humanity’s Existence? 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。 There is a growing trend in medicine: doctors are prescribing time in nature to their patients to address a wide variety of physical and mental health concerns. These “nature prescriptions (处方)” aren’t just feel-good recommendations. ____16____ Scott Kaiser, MD, a director of geriatric cognitive health at the Pacific Neuroscience Institute, is one of these doctors. “Nature has a profound impact on healthy aging and overall well-being,” he explains. “There are several factors in healthy aging—diet, exercise, mindfulness, community, creativity and a sense of purpose. ____17____ I can’t overstate how powerful nature can be as a healer.” Here are some common ways of natural healing. “Sensory walks” are an easy way to get started. Dr. Kaiser advises walking mindfully through nature while focusing on all five senses, paying attention to what you can see, smell, hear, touch and even taste. “Leave your gadgets at home,” he adds, “so you can be undistracted and really experience it all.” Another prescription gaining popularity is cold therapy. ____18____ Immerse yourself in water that feels uncomfortably cold and stay there for 30 seconds to a minute. Most people start with water that’s about 10℃ to 15℃, though some go colder as their tolerance increases. ____19____ Try simply walking for 15 minutes in the early morning. Sunlight exposure boosts vitamin D, crucial for overall health. And getting early morning sunlight in your eyes will help refresh you. Other simple prescriptions include gardening, hiking, biking or swimming. And if active pursuits feel like too much, even just sitting outdoors on a park bench can help, as it may improve your immune system and lower the risk of cancer. ____20____ Nature prescriptions can also lower stress, depression and anxiety while improving cognitive function. A. The benefits extend beyond physical health. B. But doctors suggest that it requires gradual adaptation. C. This practice involves exposing yourself to cold water. D. You’ll immediately be happier, healthier and more productive. E. If that sounds too intense, nature offers gentler alternatives, too. F. Instead, they’re evidence-based interventions backed by science. G. Being outdoors can provide access to all of these at the same time. 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。 The mark of a good fantasy story is that it inspires those who encounter it.

Due to the high-speed development of economy, families from different backgrounds came here to find a better life. Amanda’s classmate and friend, Rama, was from one of those families. One day after school, Amanda and Rama were chatting and Rama mentioned how much she missed her friends and hometown. “It is hard to leave,” Rama sighed, “but my family needed to be somewhere that is easier to make a living. Holding Rama’s hands, Amanda encouraged her to share more and she knew Rama loved to sing and dance with her friends back in her hometown. After learning about Rama’s story, Amanda started to notice more students like Rama in her school. For the first time she realized that those students looked sad in their eyes. Sometimes because of their different accents, they couldn’t communicate well with others, which made them always sit or stand silently at the back of the classroom. “They are having a hard time we should show them kindness and love!” she told her mother one day. Amanda asked her mother what she could do to help make them feel welcome. Amanda’s mother suggested, “What about using art? Maybe it will be easier to communicate through art.” Amanda thought for a while and nodded. Like her friend Rama, Amanda loved all forms of art, like painting, singing, dancing, and performing, through which she could tell different stories about her family, and her life. The next day, Amanda went to the Activity Center in her school and proposed her plan of an art show. The officer thought it a great idea. Inspired and excited, Amanda set about her plan with several friends. At the Activity Center they filled a room with paper, paint and pencils. They even made a small stage! Everything ready, they invited all the new students in her school and Amanda encouraged them to share something special about their hometown in any art form. To Amanda’s surprise, no one responded. 注意: 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Amazingly, Rama stepped forward to break the ice. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Everything seemed to change after that art show. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 长郡中学2026届高三月考试卷(一) 英语 本试题卷共10页。时量120分钟。满分150分。 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 例：How much is the shirt?

But for many people around the world, especially those in impoverished (贫困的) areas, having dental improvement and their teeth checked simply isn’t possible. A Brazilian dentist Felipe Rossi has devoted himself to helping changing that situation. Growing up in USA, Felipe Rossi had just obtained the Bachelor of Medicine Degree and was about to start a master’s degree in Pediatric Dentistry (儿童口腔学) when a journey to his father’s home — Balsabo in Brazil — converted his initial plan. “All locals didn’t have access to dental care, and consequently, many of them suffered deformed teeth or even loss of teeth, leading to many people not daring to laugh with mouth open.” Felipe Rossi recalled. “A desire was planted in my heart. That is, to use my skills to bring healthy smiles to people suffering from dental problems.” With the support of his parents, Felipe formed an NGO (non-government organization) called Porsorriso to give free oral treatments to individuals with low incomes who require cleaning. fillings, crowns, restoration work and more. His team is composed of approximately 30 registered volunteers who go with him to poor towns and villages in Brazil. Sponsorship is generally provided by two private companies. Individuals may also make donations through the ‘Smile Solidarity’ program, where they can choose monthly amounts to contribute. Porsorriso also holds regular fundraisers to afford the cost of providing free dental services around the country. As noble as its objective is, Felipe admits that Porsorriso is “struggling to survive” because of the huge cost of providing dental work and the constant fundraising events they have to hold to keep the NGO in normal functioning. “Challenging as it is, it did bring healthy teeth as well as renewed confidence to the locals. We will continue this transformative act whatever difficulties we will face”. Felipe said with a strong will. 4. How does the author introduce the topic of the text? A. By posing a contrast. B. By reporting an event. C. By assuming a situation. D. By making an appeal. 5. What motivated Felipe to offer dental treatments to Brazilians? A. The support from his parents. B. The passion for dental health. C. The encounter with local s lacking dental care. D. The professional skills and knowledge from college. 6. Which of the following can best describe Felipe Rossi? A. Hopeful and diligent. B. Faithful and ambitious. C. Intelligent and creative. D. Charitable and dedicated. 7. What do we know about Porsorriso? A. It gives free oral treatments to anyone in need. B. It is cooperated by Felipe Rossi and the local authority. C. It is financially supported by corporations and individuals. D. It holds regular fundraisers to educate people about dental care. 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了巴西牙医Felipe Rossi创建了非政府组织Porsorriso，致力于为贫困地区的低收入人群提供免费的口腔治疗服务。尽管面临资金和运营挑战，Rossi及其团队仍坚持帮助需要的人，传递健康微笑，增强当地民众的自信。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“For some of us, going to the dentist for routine check-ups is a thing of the ordinary. But for many people around the world, especially those in impoverished (贫困的) areas, having dental improvement and their teeth checked simply isn’t possible. A Brazilian dentist Felipe Rossi has devoted himself to helping changing that situation.(对我们中的一些人来说，去牙医那里做例行检查是一件很平常的事情。但对世界上许多人来说，尤其是那些生活在贫困地区的人来说，改善牙齿和检查牙齿根本是不可能的。巴西牙医费利佩·罗西致力于帮助改变这种状况)”可知，文章开头通过对比一些人定期去牙医处进行常规检查，而世界上很多人尤其是贫困地区的人们无法进行牙科治疗和牙齿检查的情况，引出了文章的主题，即巴西牙医Felip e Rossi致力于帮助改变这种情况。因此，作者通过提出对比来引入文章的主题。故选A项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段““All locals didn’t have access to dental care, and consequently, many of them suffered deformed teeth or even loss of teeth, leading to many people not daring to laugh with mouth open.” Felipe Rossi recalled. “A desire was planted in my heart. That is, to use my skills to bring healthy smiles to people suffering from dental problems.”(‘并不是所有的当地人都能得到牙科护理，因此，很多人的牙齿都变形了，甚至掉了牙，导致很多人不敢张嘴笑。’Felipe Rossi回忆道。‘一种渴望在我心中扎根。也就是说，用我的技能给患有牙病的人带来健康的微笑。’)”可知，Felipe Rossi在巴西的Balsabo地区看到当地人没有机会接受牙科治疗，很多人因此牙齿变形或甚至失去牙齿，这激发了他提供牙科治疗的决心；由此可知，是当地人缺乏牙科护理的情况促使Felipe为巴西人提供牙科治疗。故选C项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段““All locals didn’t have access to dental care, and consequently, many of them suffered deformed teeth or even loss of teeth, leading to many people not daring to laugh with mouth open.” Felipe Rossi recalled. “A desire was planted in my heart. That is, to use my skills to bring healthy smiles to people suffering from dental problems.”(‘并不是所有的当地人都能得到牙科护理，因此，很多人的牙齿都变形了，甚至掉了牙，导致很多人不敢张嘴笑。’Felipe Rossi回忆道。‘一种渴望在我心中扎根。也就是说，用我的技能给患有牙病的人带来健康的微笑。’)”可知，Felipe Rossi想要利用自己的技能为遭受牙科问题的人们带来健康的笑容，这表明他具有慈善精神。在最后一段中“As noble as its objective is, Felipe admits that Porsorriso is “struggling to survive” because of the huge cost of providing dental work and the constant fundraising events they have to hold to keep the NGO in normal functioning. “Challenging as it is, it did bring healthy teeth as well as renewed confidence to the locals. We will continue this transformative act whatever difficulties we will face”. Felipe said with a strong will.(尽管目标崇高，Felipe承认Porsorriso正在‘挣扎着生存’，因为提供牙科治疗的巨大成本和他们必须举行的持续筹款活动以保持非政府组织的正常运作。‘虽然这很有挑战性，但它确实给当地人带来了健康的牙齿，并重新树立了信心。无论我们面临什么困难，我们都将继续这一变革行动。’斐利贝带着强烈的意志说)”可知，他承认Porsorriso的生存很困难，但他们将继续进行这项改变性的行动，无论他们将面临什么困难，这表明他具有奉献精神。故选D项。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Sponsorship is generally provided by two private companies. Individuals may also make donations through the ‘Smile Solidarity’ program, where they can choose monthly amounts to contribute. Porsorriso also holds regular fundraisers to afford the cost of providing free dental services around the country.(赞助通常由两家私人公司提供。个人也可以通过‘微笑团结’计划捐款，他们可以选择每月的捐款数额。Porsorriso还定期举行筹款活动，为全国各地提供免费牙科服务)”可知，Porsorriso是由企业和个人提供经济支持。故选C项。 (★)C Beneath the quiet surface of a forest lies a busy network scientists call the “Wood Wide Web”. Far from being isolated individuals, trees communicate, share resources, and even send warnings through an underground system of fungi (真菌). The key players in this hidden conversation are mycorrhizal fungi. These thread-like organisms connect tree roots, forming vast networks. Research from the University of British Columbia reveals that up to 90% of land plants depend on these fungi. Through this interdependent relationship, trees exchange nutrients like carbon and nitrogen. Older “mother trees” often act as hubs, sending extra sugars to younger saplings struggling in shaded areas — a phenomenon called “forest family connections”. When under attack, trees release chemical signals. A 2023 study in Nature Ecology & Evolution demonstrates that acacia trees (金合欢树) bitten by giraffes produce ethylene (乙烯) gas. Nearby trees pick up these chemical signals from the air within minutes and increase tannin (鞣酸) production, making their leaves bitter and less tasty. Similarly, pine trees attacked by beetles send out warning signals through fungal networks, pushing neighbors to boost defensive resins (树脂). Not all interactions are cooperative. Some plants, like the ghost orchid, hack the network to steal nutrients from nearby trees without offering anything in return. Other species, such as black walnut trees, release toxins (毒素) to restrain competitors — a strategy called “biological warfare” by ecologists. Understanding this “social network” challenges traditional views of forests. Logging dominant mother trees can collapse entire ecosystems, much like removing servers from the Internet. Scientists now advocate for selective cutting practices that preserve fungal networks, ensuring forests’ resilience (适应力) to climate change. As author Peter Wohlleben notes in The Hidden Life of Trees, “Forests are super-organisms with intelligence we’re just beginning to decode.” This silent dialogue beneath our feet reminds us that nature’s deepest conversations often happen without a single word. 8. What method do acacia trees use to warn nearby trees of giraffe feeding? A. Producing defensive resins in bark. B. Transmitting electrical signals through roots. C. Releasing a warning gas into the air. D. Increasing sugar distribution via fungal networks. 9. What does “biological warfare” refer to in paragraph 4? A. Using chemicals to kill insects. B. Releasing poisons to contain competitors. C. Fighting for sunlight through height. D. Stealing nutrients via underground roots. 10. Why should mother trees be preserved according to scientists? A. They attract diverse wildlife species. B. They offer young trees nutrients. C. They battle against climate change. D. They maintain ecosystem stability. 11. What’s the main idea of the text? A. The defensive strategies of trees. B. The cooperative interaction between trees. C. The important role of mother trees. D. The hidden communication among trees. 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，主要介绍了森林中被科学家称为“树木网络”的地下真菌网络系统。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“A 2023 study in Nature Ecology & Evolution demonstrates that acacia trees (金合欢树) bitten by giraffes produce ethylene (乙烯) gas. Nearby trees pick up these chemical signals from the air within minutes and increase tannin (鞣酸) production, making their leaves bitter and less tasty. (2023年《自然•生态与进化》上的一项研究表明，被长颈鹿啃食的金合欢树会产生乙烯气体。附近的树木会在几分钟内从空气中接收到这些化学信号，并增加鞣酸的产生，使它们的叶子变得更苦且口感变差。)”可知，金合欢树是通过向空气中释放乙烯这种警告气体来提醒附近树木有长颈鹿在进食。故选C项。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段中的“Not all interactions are cooperative. Some plants, like the ghost orchid, hack the network to steal nutrients from nearby trees without offering anything in return. Other species, such as black walnut trees, release toxins (毒素) to restrain competitors (并非所有的互动都是合作性的。有些植物，比如幽灵兰花，会利用网络从附近的树木中窃取养分，却不给予任何回报。其他物种，如黑胡桃树，则会释放毒素来抑制竞争对手)”可推理出，biological warfare指的是释放毒素来抑制竞争对手。故选B项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“Logging dominant mother trees can collapse entire ecosystems, much like removing servers from the Internet. (砍伐占主导地位的母树可能会使整个生态系统崩溃，这就好比从互联网中移除服务器一样。)”可知，科学家认为应该保护母树是因为它们能维持生态系统的稳定。故选D项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Beneath the quiet surface of a forest lies a busy network scientists call the ‘Wood Wide Web’. Far from being isolated individuals, trees communicate, share resources, and even send warnings through an underground system of fungi (真菌). (在安静的森林表面下，隐藏着一个繁忙的网络，科学家称之为“森林万维网”。树木不是孤立的个体，而是通过真菌的地下系统交流、共享资源，甚至发出警告。)”和最后一段中的“This silent dialogue beneath our feet reminds us that nature’s deepest conversations often happen without a single word. (我们脚下的这种无声对话提醒我们，自然界最深刻的交流往往无需一言半语。)”可知，文章开篇就提到森林中存在被称为“树木网络”的地下真菌网络，树木通过它进行无声交流、共享资源。由此可知，这篇文章的主旨是树木之间隐藏的交流。故选D项。 (★)D In a stimulating interview with the philosopher Daniel Dennett in Living on Earth, Dennett shared that Charles Darwin and Alan Turing might make the same discovery. Darwin showed how you can get the appearance of purpose and design out of blind processes of natural selection. And Turing said that any computable problem can be computed by a machine without understanding. The host then voiced a concern: as AI advances, machines will come to lord over us. Dennett acknowledges there’s a takeover risk but claims it’s misunderstood. The risk is not that machines will become autonomous rulers but that we will depend too much on machines. The main issue with AI is not intelligence but autonomy. At the end of the day, even the smartest computers are our tools, and their intentions are ours. Or, to the extent that we can speak of their intentions at all—for example, the intention of a self-driving car to avoid an obstacle—we have in mind something it’s designed to do. Our growing dependence on technologies doesn’t mean we are losing our natural autonomy in quite this sense. Our needs remain. But it is a loss of autonomy. Even auto mechanics these days rely on computers and, in the era of self-driving cars, will any of us still know how to drive? Think what would happen if we lost electricity? We’d be thrown back into the 19th century, as Dennett says. But things would be worse, as we lack know-how that made it possible for our ancestors to live well in the olden days. The truth is, we’ve been technological since our dawn as a species. We first found ourselves in the archaeological record where we saw a great exposition of tools, technologies, art-making and language. In a sense, being human means being like a cyborg, which is a technological extension of our natural selves. This suggests that at any time in our development, a large-scale breakdown in the technological system would spell not exactly our doom, but our complete reorganization. Perhaps what makes our current dilemma unprecedented (史无前例的) is the fact that we are so closely networked. When the library of Alexandria burned down, books and knowledge were lost. But in a world where libraries are replaced by their online versions, it isn’t unimaginable that every library could be simply deleted. What happens to us then? 12. Which of the following statements might Dennett most likely agree with? A. AI’s development is bounded. B. AI doesn’t have comprehension. C. AI might be overly relied on. D. AI’s evolution resembles natural selection. 13. Which of the following examples best matches the idea of “know-how” in paragraph 4? A. A farmer crafts a table with ancient tools. B. A nobleman hires servants to do housework. C. A chef prepares a dish with electronic aids. D. A student uses a calculator for math tasks. 14. Why did the author mention libraries in paragraph 6? A. To show the technological stability. B. To emphasize the technological weakness. C. To prove the technological safeguard. D. To illustrate the technological transformation. 15. What would be the best title for the text? A. Is the Concern Artificial Intelligence or Autonomy? B. How will Technology Breakdown Change Our Lives? C. How does the Human-Technology Relationship Develop? D. Will Artificial Autonomy Threaten Humanity’s Existence? 【答案】12. C 13. A 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文，主要探讨了AI和人类自主性的关系、人类对技术的依赖、人类的技术本质以及当前网络化社会面临的特殊困境。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Dennett acknowledges there’s a takeover risk but claims it’s misunderstood. The risk is not that machines will become autonomous rulers but that we will depend too much on machines.(Dennett承认存在被替代的风险，但他认为这种风险被误解了。风险不在于机器会成为自主统治者，而在于我们会过度依赖机器。)”可知，Dennett最有可能同意的说法是人工智能可能会被过度依赖。故选C项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Think what would happen if we lost electricity? We’d be thrown back into the 19th century, as Dennett says. But things would be worse, as we lack know-how that made it possible for our ancestors to live well in the olden days.(想想如果我们断电会发生什么?正如Dennett所说，我们会被抛回19世纪。但事情会变得更糟，因为我们缺乏使我们的祖先在过去的日子里生活得很好的技术。)”可知，符合“know-how”的概念的是一位农民用古老的工具制作一张桌子。故选A项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段中的“Perhaps what makes our current dilemma unprecedented (史无前例的) is the fact that we are so closely networked.(也许我们目前的困境之所以前所未有，是因为我们是如此紧密地联系在一起。)”和“But in a world where libraries are replaced by their online versions, it isn’t unimaginable that every library could be simply deleted.(但在一个图书馆被其在线版本所取代的世界里，所有的图书馆都可能被轻易删除，这并不是不可想象的。)”可推知，作者在第六段提到图书馆是为了强调技术上的弱点。故选B项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段中的“The host then voiced a concern: as AI advances, machines will come to lord over us.(主持人随后表达了担忧：随着人工智能的发展，机器将主宰我们。)”和第三段中的“The main issue with AI is not intelligence but autonomy.(人工智能的主要问题不是智能，而是自主性。)”可知，本文主要探讨了AI和人类自主性的关系、人类对技术的依赖、人类的技术本质以及当前网络化社会面临的特殊困境，因此最好的题目是A选项“Is the Concern Artificial Intelligence or Autonomy?(人们担忧的是人工智能还是自主性?)”。故选A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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 There is a growing trend in medicine: doctors are prescribing time in nature to their patients to address a wide variety of physical and mental health concerns. These “nature prescriptions (处方)” aren’t just feel-good recommendations. ____16____ Scott Kaiser, MD, a director of geriatric cognitive health at the Pacific Neuroscience Institute, is one of these doctors. “Nature has a profound impact on healthy aging and overall well-being,” he explains. “There are several factors in healthy aging—diet, exercise, mindfulness, community, creativity and a sense of purpose. ____17____ I can’t overstate how powerful nature can be as a healer.” Here are some common ways of natural healing. “Sensory walks” are an easy way to get started. Dr. Kaiser advises walking mindfully through nature while focusing on all five senses, paying attention to what you can see, smell, hear, touch and even taste. “Leave your gadgets at home,” he adds, “so you can be undistracted and really experience it all.” Another prescription gaining popularity is cold therapy. ____18____ Immerse yourself in water that feels uncomfortably cold and stay there for 30 seconds to a minute. Most people start with water that’s about 10℃ to 15℃, though some go colder as their tolerance increases. ____19____ Try simply walking for 15 minutes in the early morning. Sunlight exposure boosts vitamin D, crucial for overall health. And getting early morning sunlight in your eyes will help refresh you. Other simple prescriptions include gardening, hiking, biking or swimming. And if active pursuits feel like too much, even just sitting outdoors on a park bench can help, as it may improve your immune system and lower the risk of cancer. ____20____ Nature prescriptions can also lower stress, depression and anxiety while improving cognitive function. A. The benefits extend beyond physical health. B. But doctors suggest that it requires gradual adaptation. C. This practice involves exposing yourself to cold water. D. You’ll immediately be happier, healthier and more productive. E. If that sounds too intense, nature offers gentler alternatives, too. F. Instead, they’re evidence-based interventions backed by science. G Being outdoors can provide access to all of these at the same time. 【答案】16. F 17. G 18. C 19. E 20. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。医学中自然处方成趋势，有科学依据，能应对多种健康问题，文章主要介绍了感官散步、冷疗等方式，益处远超生理健康。 【16题详解】 根据前文“These “nature prescriptions (处方)” aren’t just feel-good recommendations.( 这些“自然处方”不仅仅是让人感觉良好的建议。)”F选项“Instead, they’re evidence - based interventions backed by science.”（相反，它们是有科学依据的循证干预措施）与前文形成对比转折关系，进一步说明自然处方是有科学依据的，符合语境。故选F项。 【17题详解】 根据前文“There are several factors in healthy aging—diet, exercise, mindfulness, community, creativity and a sense of purpose.( 健康老龄化有几个因素 —— 饮食、运动、正念、归属感、创造力和目标感。)”提到健康老龄化有几个因素，G选项“Being outdoors can provide access to all of these at the same time.( 在户外可以同时获得所有这些。)”这里的“all of these”指代前面提到的健康老龄化的几个因素，说明户外对健康老龄化的作用，符合语境。故选G项。 【18题详解】 根据前文“Another prescription gaining popularity is cold therapy.( 另一种越来越受欢迎的处方是冷疗法。)”提到冷疗法。C选项“This practice involves exposing yourself to cold water.( 这种做法包括让自己暴露在冷水中。)”“This practice”指代冷疗法，具体说明了冷疗法是让自己接触冷水，符合语境。故选C项。 【19题详解】 根据前文“Most people start with water that’s about 10℃ to 15℃, though some go colder as their tolerance increases.( 大多数人从10到15摄氏度的水开始，尽管有些人随着耐受性的增加而变得更冷。)”介绍了冷疗法这种相对较强烈的方式，后面提到“Try simply walking for 15 minutes in the early morning.( 试试在清晨简单地步行 15 分钟。)”这是比较温和的方式，E 选项“If that sounds too intense, nature offers gentler alternatives, too.( 如果那听起来太强烈了，大自然也提供了更温和的选择。)”起到承上启下的作用，符合语境。故选E项。 【20题详解】 根据后文“Nature prescriptions can also lower stress, depression and anxiety while improving cognitive function.( 自然处方还可以减轻压力、抑郁和焦虑，同时提高认知功能。)”这是在说自然处方对心理健康方面的好处，A 选项“The benefits extend beyond physical health.( 好处不仅仅局限于身体健康。)”说明自然处方的好处不仅在身体方面，还延伸到心理等其他方面，符合语境。故选A项。 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。 The mark of a good fantasy story is that it inspires those who encounter it.

What 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍的是成都杜甫草堂的相关情况。 【36题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：成都杜甫草堂位于成都市浣花溪畔，是中国唐代大诗人杜甫的故居。分析句子可知，此处为非谓语动词作后置定语修饰Chengdu Du Fu Thatched Cottage，Chengdu Du Fu Thatched Cottage和locate为被动关系，所以为过去分词形式。故填located。 【37题详解】 考查冠词。句意：成都杜甫草堂位于成都市浣花溪畔，是中国唐代大诗人杜甫的故居。根据句意可知，“a great poet”表示“一位伟大的诗人”，是泛指概念，且“great”是发音以辅音音素开头的单词，所以用不定冠词a。故填a。 【38题详解】 考查动词时态。句意：公元759年冬天，为了躲避安史之乱，杜甫和他的家人逃往成都。根据时间状语“In the winter of AD 759”可知，句子描述的是过去发生的事情，所以要用一般过去时，“flee”的过去式是“fled”。故填fled。 【39题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：在美丽的浣花溪畔，他建造了一座茅草屋，取名为“成都草堂”，在那里住了近4年。分析句子可知，设空处引导非限制性定语从句，先行词是“Chengdu Thatched Cottage”，关系词在定语从句“he lived for nearly 4 years”中作地点状语，即“他在这个地方住了将近四年”，所以用关系副词where引导定语从句。故填where。 【40题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：这些不朽诗歌赋予了草堂深厚的文化意义，使其成为中国文学史上的一块圣地。分析句子可知，此处为非谓语动词作结果状语，make和逻辑主语前面整句话为主动关系，所以为现在分词形式。故填making。 【41题详解】 考查形容词的最高级。句意：草堂占地19万平方米，是中国最大、保存最完整、最具特色的杜甫纪念遗迹。根据前面的“the biggest, best preserved”可知要用最高级形式。“distinctive”是多音节词，其最高级是在前面加the most，且因前文已有定冠词the，所以填most distinctive。故填most distinctive。 【42题详解】 考查动词时态和语态。句意：一尊由我国著名雕塑家刘开渠雕刻的杜甫铜像放置在大厅的中央。根据句意可知，主语“A bronze statue of Du Fu”和动词“place”之间是被动关系，即“雕像被放置”，且句子描述的是现在的情况，所以用一般现在时的被动语态。故填is placed。 【43题详解】 考查固定搭配。句意：中国宋代的评论家称杜甫为“诗史家”。“refer to…as…”表示“把……称作……”，是固定短语。故填as。 【44题详解】 考查名词。句意：普通百姓仍然生活在贫困中，而皇帝和他的高级官员却享受着奢侈的生活。“live in+名词”表示“生活在……状态中”，“poor”是形容词，其名词形式是“poverty”，“live in poverty”表示“生活在贫困中”，所以填poverty。故填poverty。 【45题详解】 考查主语从句。句意：他在诗中表达的是对政府的不满和对老百姓的怜悯。分析句子可知，“______ he expressed in his poems”是句子的主语从句，从句中的“expressed”缺少宾语，所以用what引导主语从句，在从句中作宾语，表示“他在诗中所表达的内容”，句首单词首字母大写。故填What。 第四部分 写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节(满分15分) 46. 上周末，你参加了社区组织的“防蚊灭蚊，守护健康”活动。请为校英文报写一篇报道，内容包括： (1)活动的过程; (2)收获与感想。 注意： (1)写作词数应为80个左右; (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Fighting Mosquitoes, Protecting Health ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Fighting Mosquitoes, Protecting Health Last weekend, I took part in the “Fighting Mosquitoes, Protecting Health” activity organized by our community.

Due to the high-speed development of economy, families from different backgrounds came here to find a better life. Amanda’s classmate and friend, Rama, was from one of those families. One day after school, Amanda and Rama were chatting and Rama mentioned how much she missed her friends and hometown. “It is hard to leave,” Rama sighed, “but my family needed to be somewhere that is easier to make a living. Holding Rama’s hands, Amanda encouraged her to share more and she knew Rama loved to sing and dance with her friends back in her hometown. After learning about Rama’s story, Amanda started to notice more students like Rama in her school. For the first time she realized that those students looked sad in their eyes. Sometimes because of their different accents, they couldn’t communicate well with others, which made them always sit or stand silently at the back of the classroom. “They are having a hard time, we should show them kindness and love!” she told her mother one day. Amanda asked her mother what she could do to help make them feel welcome. Amanda’s mother suggested, “What about using art? Maybe it will be easier to communicate through art.” Amanda thought for a while and nodded. Like her friend Rama, Amanda loved all forms of art, like painting, singing, dancing, and performing, through which she could tell different stories about her family, and her life. The next day, Amanda went to the Activity Center in her school and proposed her plan of an art show. The officer thought it a great idea. Inspired and excited, Amanda set about her plan with several friends. At the Activity Center they filled a room with paper, paint and pencils. They even made a small stage! Everything ready, they invited all the new students in her school and Amanda encouraged them to share something special about their hometown in any art form.

She introduced herself to all of us formally on the stage, including her name, her hometown, her interests and so on. Following is her beautiful and amazing dance. As she was dancing, another student called Mike, began to play the violin as her background music. Such a shy and silent boy is he that they never know he is good at playing the violin. Students off the stage clapped their hands loudly as the final note ended. And then, they began to come to the stage and share their stories one by one. The art show lasted for two hours that day and everyone enjoyed it so much. Everything seemed to change after that art show. They began to communicate with others and make new friends. Besides, they took part in the class and school activities actively, which made them integrate into the new class and school better. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Amanda通过和朋友Rama聊天，了解到班上很多新同学都来自各个不同地方，他们无法很好地与同学沟通，只能孤独地坐在教室后面，Amanda想帮助他们，但又不得其法，最后通过艺术来帮助他们融入班级的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段首句内容“令人惊讶的是，拉玛站出来打破了僵局。”可知，第一段可描述Rama站出来打破僵局后发生的故事。 ②由第二段首句内容“艺术展览之后一切都变了。”可知，第二段可描述艺术展览之后同学们发生的变化。 2.续写线索：打破僵局——分享故事——踊跃上台——发生变化——积极参与班级活动 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①鼓掌：clap the hands / applaud ②参加活动：take part in activities / participate in activities 情绪类 ①令人惊讶的：amazing / surprising / astonishing ②害羞的：shy / bashful 【点睛】【高分句型1】As she was dancing, another student called Mike, began to play the violin as her background music.(运用了as引导的时间状语从句) 【高分句型2】Such a shy and silent boy is he that they never know he is good at playing the violin.(运用了such…that…引导的结果状语从句和部分倒装) 【高分句型3】Besides, they took part in the class and school activities actively, which made them integrate into the new class and school better.(运用了which引导的非限制性定语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
