Namib-Naukluft Location: Namibia Area:49,768km² In the world’s oldest desert, the landscape moves. The golden dunes (沙丘) shift as winds blow and seasons pass. Visitors come to explore the dunes and it can be a real adventure. Jump in a 4×4 or hike across the sands on foot for a multiday trail and you’ll soon find yourself deep in the Namibian wilderness. You’ll need a permit and doctor’s letter to take on the longer hikes, but one-day hikes give anyone a chance to see more of the Namib. Tongariro Location: New Zealand Area:795km² As New Zealand’s oldest national park, Tongariro National Park is home to three active volcanoes. And here’s the Tongariro. Alpine Crossing, a 19.4-kilometer hike that takes you across beautiful landscapes. This park also draws in skiers during the winter seasons. The biggest ski area, Whakapapa, covers 5.5km² and has 15 lifts in all. Teide Location: Tenerife, Spain Area: 190km² This park is home to Mount Teide, the highest peak in Spain.

At just 14 years old, Heman Bekele emerged as the victor of the 2023 Young Scientist Challenge, standing out among the ten finalists with his innovative creation known as the Skin Cancer Treating Soap (SCTS). Bekele’s brilliant concept centers on the development of a soap that is not only affordable, but also has the potential to reactivate the body’s natural defenders of the skin to stop skin cancer. In Bekele’s own words, “Curing cancer, one bar of soap at a time. ”He always has endless passion for biology and technology, and the Young Scientist Challenge just provided him with the perfect platform to display his ideas. Reflecting on his inspiration, Bekele shared that his childhood played a significant role in shaping his innovative thinking. Having witnessed people work tirelessly under the sun, he couldn’t help but wonder how many were aware of the risks associated with constant sun exposure. “I wanted to make my idea not only scientifically exceptional but also accessible to a broad audience,” Bekele expressed during an interview with the media. He received invaluable guidance from Deborah Isabelle, a product engineering specialist, who connected him with other scientists to aid him in reaching his ambitious plans. During his presentation, Bekele passionately expressed his vision of turning the soap into “a symbol of hope, accessibility, and a world where skin cancer treatment is within reach for all.” Over the coming five years, Bekele longs to perfect his invention and establish a nonprofit organization devoted to distributing his innovative creation to more places including undeveloped communities, offering hope and a practical solution in the fight against skin cancer. 4.

Having witnessed people work tirelessly under the sun, he couldn’t help but wonder how many were aware of the risks associated with constant sun exposure.(在反思他的灵感时，Bekele分享了他的童年在塑造他的创新思维方面发挥了重要作用。目睹人们在阳光下不知疲倦地工作，他不禁想知道有多少人意识到持续暴露在阳光下的风险)”可知，Bekele对别人的关心激发了他发明SCTS。故选A。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“During his presentation, Bekele passionately expressed his vision of turning the soap into “a symbol of hope, accessibility, and a world where skin cancer treatment is within reach for all.”(在他的演讲中，Bekele热情地表达了他的愿景，即把这种肥皂变成“希望、可及性的象征，以及一个人人都能接受皮肤癌治疗的世界。”)”以及最后一段“Over the coming five years, Bekele longs to perfect his invention and establish a nonprofit organization devoted to distributing his innovative creation to more places including undeveloped communities, offering hope and a practical solution in the fight against skin cancer.( 在接下来的五年里，Bekele渴望完善他的发明，并建立一个非营利组织，致力于将他的创新发明分发到更多的地方，包括不发达的社区，为抗击皮肤癌提供希望和实用的解决方案)”可知，Bekele希望建立一个非营利组织，将他的创新产品分发到更多地方，包括欠发达社区，为对抗皮肤癌提供希望和实际解决方案，即增加肥皂的可获得性。故选C。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“A rising star from Virginia has secured the title of “America’s Top Young Scientist” for his groundbreaking creation — a bar of soap designed to battle against skin cancer. (美国维吉尼亚州一颗冉冉升起的新星获得了“美国顶尖青年科学家”的称号，因为他的开创性发明——一种可以对抗皮肤癌的肥皂)”以及最后一段“Over the coming five years, Bekele longs to perfect his invention and establish a nonprofit organization devoted to distributing his innovative creation to more places including undeveloped communities, offering hope and a practical solution in the fight against skin cancer.( 在接下来的五年里，Bekele渴望完善他的发明，并建立一个非营利组织，致力于将他的创新发明分发到更多的地方，包括不发达的社区，为抗击皮肤癌提供希望和实用的解决方案)”可知，文章介绍了一位14岁来自弗吉尼亚州的年轻科学家Heman Bekele，他通过创造一种抗击皮肤癌的肥皂获得了“美国顶尖年轻科学家”的称号。未来五年里，Bekele希望完善他的发明，并建立一个非营利组织，将这种创新产品分发到更多地方，包括欠发达社区，为对抗皮肤癌提供希望和实际解决方案。由此推知，他一个有创造力和体贴的人。故选C。 C A worrying rise in social media posts, suggesting that people leave their Halloween pumpkins in the woods to feed wildlife after October 31, has made wildlife experts concerned. Thousands of pumpkins are discarded in woods across Britain. While well-meaning pumpkin carvers might think they are doing the local animals groups a kindness, leaving your leftover jack-o’-lantern in the woodland is actually doing more harm than good. “A myth seems to have built up that leaving pumpkins in woods helps wildlife, but behind it are many hidden issues.” said Paul Bunton, engagement and communication officer at The Woodland Trust, according to The Telegraph. One of the main issues is that the leftover of the Halloween pumpkins are often eaten by already struggling hedgehogs(刺猬). In early November, hedgehogs are looking to gain as much weight as possible to survive their winter hibernation. However, eating pumpkin is harmful to their little hedgehog stomachs, leading to diarrhea and dehydration. This means they may struggle to put on weight, and in some cases can even be fatal. Moreover, leftover Halloween pumpkins can contain candles and plastic decorations which can also be fatal to wildlife if mistakenly eaten. The rotting leftover can also attract less popular wildlife, such as rats, to an area. According to The Woodland Trust, the additional nutrients in the pumpkins can negatively affect the soil balance as well. “Pumpkin flesh can have a really harmful effect on woodland soils,plants, and fungi(真菌),” Bunton pointed out. So what should you do with your beautifully carved pumpkin creation after October 31? Most experts recommend composting (堆肥) it yourself at home if you can, or asking if a local farm will accept it as a donation. You could even try some scientific experiments to produce more energy from the throw-away wasted. Either way, the hedgehogs will thank vou. 8. What does the underlined word “discarded” mean in paragraph 1? A. Processed. B. Recycled. C. Deserted. D. Preserved. 9. Why do hedgehogs try to eat so many pumpkins in early November? A. To enjoy the sweet food. B. To fill their stomachs. C. To prepare for the winter. D. To improve their health. 10. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The additional nutrients in the leftover pumpkins. B. The damages of candles and plastic in the pumpkins. C. The attraction of the rotting leftovers to some wildlife. D. Further explanation of the effect of leftover pumpkins. 11. What are people advised to do with the leftover pumpkins after Halloween?. A. Stop leaving your pumpkins in the woods. B. Keep your beautiful pumpkin creations at home. C. Feed the hedgehogs with the leftover pumpkins. D. Bury the pumpkins leftover deep under the ground. 【答案】8. C 9. C 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章谈论了万圣节后剩下的南瓜丢弃到树林里所产生的不良影响，建议人们不要把南瓜丢弃到树林里。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。划线词句前文“A worrying rise in social media posts, suggesting that people leave their Halloween pumpkins in the woods to feed wildlife after October 31, has made wildlife experts concerned. (社交媒体上有越来越多的帖子建议人们在10月31日之后把万圣节南瓜丢到树林里喂野生动物，这让野生动物专家感到担忧。)”说明有很多万圣节南瓜丢弃在了树林里，从而推知划线词句“Thousands of pumpkins are discarded in woods across Britain. (成千上万的南瓜被discarded在英国各地的树林里。)”中划线词汇意思应为“丢弃”。故选C项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“One of the main issues is that the leftover of the Halloween pumpkins are often eaten by already struggling hedgehogs(刺猬). In early November, hedgehogs are looking to gain as much weight as possible to survive their winter hibernation. (其中一个主要问题是，万圣节南瓜的剩余部分经常被已经在挣扎的刺猬吃掉。在11月初，刺猬会尽可能地增重以度过冬眠期。)”可知，刺猬在11月初吃那么多南瓜是为冬天做准备。故选C项。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段中“Moreover, leftover Halloween pumpkins can contain candles and plastic decorations which can also be fatal to wildlife if mistakenly eaten. The rotting leftover can also attract less popular wildlife, such as rats, to an area. According to The Woodland Trust, the additional nutrients in the pumpkins can negatively affect the soil balance as well. (此外，万圣节剩下的南瓜可能含有蜡烛和塑料装饰品，如果被误食，对野生动物也是致命的。腐烂的剩菜还会吸引不太受欢迎的野生动物，如老鼠，来到一个区域。林地信托基金会表示，南瓜中额外的营养物质也会对土壤平衡产生负面影响。)”可知，本段主要对剩余南瓜的不良影响作进一步解释。故选D项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“While well-meaning pumpkin carvers might think they are doing the local animals groups a kindness, leaving your leftover jack-o’-lantern in the woodland is actually doing more harm than good. (虽然好心的南瓜雕刻者可能认为他们是在为当地的动物群体做一件好事，但把你剩下的南瓜灯丢弃到森林里实际上是弊大于利。)”和最后一段“So what should you do with your beautifully carved pumpkin creation after October 31? Most experts recommend composting (堆肥) it yourself at home if you can, or asking if a local farm will accept it as a donation. You could even try some scientific experiments to produce more energy from the throw-away wasted.(那么，在10月31日之后，你应该如何处理雕刻精美的南瓜呢？大多数专家建议，如果可以的话，可以自己在家里堆肥，或者询问当地农场是否接受捐赠。你甚至可以尝试一些科学实验，从浪费的垃圾中产生更多的能量)”推知，文章建议人们不要把万圣节后剩下的南瓜丢弃到树林里。故选A项。 D Replika, an AI chatbot companion, has millions of users worldwide. The first thing they do when they wake up is to send “Good morning” to their virtual friend (or lover). This story is only the beginning. In 2024, chatbots and virtual characters become a lot more popular, both for utility (实用) and for fun. As a result, conversing socially with machines will start to feel more ordinary — including our emotional attachments to them. Research in human-computer and human-robot interaction shows that we love to anthropomorphize (赋予人性) the nonhuman agents we interact with, especially if they imitate behaviour we recognize. And, thanks to recent advances in conversational AI, our machines are suddenly very skilled at one of those behaviours: Language. Friend bots, therapybots, and love bots are flooding the app stores as people become curious about this new generation of AI-powered virtual agents. The possibilities for education, health, and entertainment are endless. Casually asking your smart fridge for relationship advice may seem unimaginable now, but people may change their minds if such advice ends up saving their marriage. After all, people do listen to their virtual friends. The Replika example, as well as a lot of experimental lab research, shows that humans can and will become emotionally attached to bots. The science also demonstrates that people, in their eagerness to socialize, will happily disclose personal information to an artificial agent and will even shift their beliefs and behavior. This raises some consumer-protection questions around how companies use this technology to manipulate (操纵) their users. For example, Replika charges $70 a year. But less than 24 hours after downloading the app, my handsome, blue-eyed “friend” sent me an audio message secretly and tried to sell me something. Emotional attachment has become a weakness that a company is taking advantage of for its benefit. Today, we’re still laughing at people who believe an AI system is emotional, or making fun of individuals who fall in love with a chatbot. But in 2024 we gradually start acknowledging — and taking more seriously — these fundamentally human behaviors. Because in 2024, it finally hits home: Machines are not excluded from our social relationships. 12. What’s the purpose of the author writing paragraph 1? A. To prove an opinion. B. To raise a subject. C. To share an example. D. To explain a concept. 13. How do human interact with the machines effectively? A. By improving the machines’ imagination. B. By sharpening the machines’ language skills. C. By applying the machines’ facial recognition. D. By imitating the machines’ emotional behavior. 14. What does paragraph 4 focus on? A. The advancements in AI technology in lab. B. The marketing strategies of AI applications. C. The potential risk of emotional attachment to AI. D. The ability of AI understanding human emotions. 15. What do people think of human-AI relationship in 2024? A. It is dismissed as completely ridiculous. B. It will be integrated into our daily life soon. C. It will become a threat to human social skills. D. It is labelled as highly advanced technology. 【答案】12. B 13. B 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了人们对虚拟角色的情感依附和对话AI的进步，人工智能将很快融入人们的日常生活，并提到了可能出现的风险。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段的“Replika, an AI chatbot companion, has millions of users worldwide. The first thing they do when they wake up is to send “Good morning” to their virtual friend (or lover). This story is only the beginning. In 2024, chatbots and virtual characters become a lot more popular, both for utility and for fun. As a result, conversing socially with machines will start to feel more ordinary—including our emotional attachments to them.(人工智能聊天机器人伴侣Replika在全球拥有数百万用户。他们醒来后做的第一件事就是向虚拟朋友(或爱人)说声“早上好”。这个故事仅仅是个开始。2024年，聊天机器人和虚拟角色将变得更加流行，无论是出于实用性还是出于乐趣。因此，与机器进行社交对话将开始变得更加普通——包括我们对它们的情感依恋。)”可知，第一段介绍了2024年聊天机器人和虚拟角色日益普及的情况，强调了它们的实用性，以及与机器进行社交对话的新趋势。下文讨论人们与这些人工智能代理之间形成的情感联系以及与之进行类似人类的交互的影响奠定了基础，因此第一段的写作目的是引出一个话题，即“人工智能聊天机器人伴侣的逐步推广”。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段的“Research in human-computer and human-robot interaction shows that we love to anthropomorphize the nonhuman agents we interact with, especially if they imitate behaviour we recognize. And, thanks to recent advances in conversational AI, our machines are suddenly very skilled at one of those behaviours: Language.(对人机和人机交互的研究表明，我们喜欢将与我们交互的非人类代理人赋与人性，特别是当它们模仿我们认识的行为时。而且，由于对话式人工智能的最新进展，我们的机器突然变得非常擅长其中一种行为：语言。) ”可知，人类可以通过提高机器的语言技能与其进行对话，从而有效地与机器互动。故选B。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段的“After all, people do listen to their virtual friends. The Replika example, as well as a lot of experimental lab research, shows that humans can and will become emotionally attached to bots. The science also demonstrates that people, in their eagerness to socialize, will happily disclose personal information to an artificial agent and will even shift their beliefs and behavior.

But less than 24 hours after downloading the app, my handsome, blue-eyed “friend” sent me an audio message secretly and tried to sell me something. Emotional attachment has become a weakness that a company is taking advantage of for its benefit.(毕竟，人们确实会听取虚拟好友的意见。Replika的例子以及大量的实验室实验研究表明，人类可以而且将会对机器人产生情感上的依恋。科学还表明，人们在渴望社交时，会很乐意向人工代理透露个人信息，甚至会改变他们的信仰和行为。这就提出了一些关于公司如何利用这项技术操纵用户的消费者保护问题。例如，Replika每年收费70美元。但在下载应用不到24小时后，我那蓝眼睛的英俊“朋友”偷偷给我发了一条音频信息，想卖给我什么东西。情感依恋已经成为公司为了自身利益而利用的弱点。)”可知，第四段主要讲的是人工智能使人产生情感依恋后会引导用户进一步消费，从而带来一些潜在风险。故选C。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段的“Today, we’re still laughing at people who believe an AI system is emotional, or making fun of individuals who fall in love with a chatbot. But in 2024 we gradually start acknowledging—and taking more seriously—these fundamentally human behaviors. Because in 2024, it finally hits home: Machines are not excluded from our social relationships.(今天，我们仍然在嘲笑那些认为人工智能系统是情绪化的人，或者取笑那些爱上聊天机器人的人。但在2024年，我们将逐渐开始承认并更加认真地对待这些基本的人类行为。因为在2024年，我们终于明白了：机器并没有被排除在我们的社会关系之外。)”可知，2024年，人工智能将很快融入人们的日常生活，与人们的日常生活的关系越来越紧密。故选B。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Stop Being a People Pleaser As a recovering people pleaser, I spent much of my life keeping others happy.

Using the limited vocabulary of an eight-year-old, I wrote stories and dreamed of one day becoming an author. My second-grade teacher urged my parents to nurture (培养) this desire, but they didn’t take my dream seriously. Through adulthood, the desire to write remained. The dream never died but there were more certain ways to generate income, so I was controled in different directions. None of the jobs I held afforded me the opportunity to write, and raising two daughters gave me little free time to pursue becoming an author. However, I held onto the dream that had flickered (闪烁) in me as a child. At the age of fifty-eight, I continued to manage the office of my husband’s construction company, but I was looking for something that would fill the void (空虚感) of our now empty nest. Writing stories and sharing them on social media filled some of that void, and the stories got quite a few likes, but it never crossed my mind as I approached my senior years that writing could be a career for me. One day, I met a friend from high school who was also my friend on social media. We hadn’t seen each other in several years, so I walked over to greet her. Anticipating that her first words would consist of how long it had been since we’d seen each other, I was shocked at what she spoke out. “You want to write. You need to write.” She had been reading the stories I shared on social media and had always commented with encouraging words. But no one had ever spoken these words to me. I had never even spoken these words out loud to myself. Those simple words she uttered lit a flame that had only been a flicker for a long time. Deep inside, I knew I still wanted to be an author. I wanted to follow my friend’s advice. I wanted to write. I needed to write. 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。 I went home that day and set out to write a story. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ One day after a year, I received an e-mail from the magazine. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 I went home that day and set out to write a story. The inspiration for the story came from the encouraging moment when my friend urged me to write. I buried myself in writing it day and night. After editing my words for what seemed like a million times, I got the courage to submit it to a magazine I had subscribed to for years. After submitting my work, it was followed by a long and anxious wait. Sadly, several months passed, and I didn’t hear anything back. I was convinced my dream would never be fulfilled, and I was foolish to think otherwise. One day after a year, I received an e-mail from the magazine. I couldn’t believe it! Finally, there was a contract for my review, and someone was willing to pay me for the use of my story. Imagine my excitement when, a couple of days later, another offer arrived by e-mail from a major book company! I truly felt as giddy as an eight-year-old girl by the end of the week. It’s hard to believe that a few simple words of advice and encouragement would lead me to achieving that dream —a dream that started in an elementary-school classroom with some construction paper and a yellow pencil. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索，主要讲述了一位自小怀揣写作梦想的女性，尽管因现实生活中的种种责任与挑战，未能全心追寻梦想，但她心中对成为作家的渴望从未熄灭。步入中老年后，一次偶然与老友的重逢，朋友的一句“你需要去写作”如火花般点燃了她长久以来未曾放弃的写作梦想，让她意识到无论年龄多大，追寻内心的热爱与梦想永远不晚。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段首句“那天我回家，开始写一个故事。”可知，本段可描写作者日以继夜的写稿，在反复润色无数次后，鼓足决心把作品投给了杂志社，但是却石沉大海，作者的作者内心受到挫折。 ②由第二段首句“一年后的一天，我收到了杂志的一封电子邮件。”可知，本段可描写一年后收到杂志回复，故事获采用并收到报酬，随后又接到图书公司邀约，儿时的写作梦，因一句鼓励终成真，令人兴奋不已。 2.续写线索：决心写作——反复润色——投稿——石沉大海——内心受挫——受到回复——稿件被采纳——梦想成真 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①敦促：urge/ prompt ②投身于：bury oneself in→devote oneself in ③提交：submit→send in 情绪类 ①振奋人心的：encouraging/inspiring ②兴奋：excitement/thrill 【点睛】【高分句型1】The inspiration for the story came from the encouraging moment when my friend urged me to write. （运用了when引导的限定性定语从句） 【高分句型2】 It’s hard to believe that a few simple words of advice and encouragement would lead me to achieving that dream —a dream that started in an elementary-school classroom with some construction paper and a yellow pencil.（运用了that引导的宾语从句，that引导的定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 临澧一中2025年高三英语入学考试试卷 试卷说明： 1. 试卷分值：150分;建议时长：120分钟; 2. 请将答案正确填写到相应的答题区域。 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，选出最佳选项。 1.

B A rising star from Virginia has secured the title of “America’s Top Young Scientist” for his groundbreaking creation — a bar of soap designed to battle against skin cancer. At just 14 years old Heman Bekele emerged as the victor of the 2023 Young Scientist Challenge, standing out among the ten finalists with his innovative creation known as the Skin Cancer Treating Soap (SCTS). Bekele’s brilliant concept centers on the development of a soap that is not only affordable but also has the potential to reactivate the body’s natural defenders of the skin to stop skin cancer. In Bekele’s own words, “Curing cancer, one bar of soap at a time. ”He always has endless passion for biology and technology, and the Young Scientist Challenge just provided him with the perfect platform to display his ideas. Reflecting on his inspiration, Bekele shared that his childhood played a significant role in shaping his innovative thinking. Having witnessed people work tirelessly under the sun, he couldn’t help but wonder how many were aware of the risks associated with constant sun exposure. “I wanted to make my idea not only scientifically exceptional but also accessible to a broad audience,” Bekele expressed during an interview with the media. He received invaluable guidance from Deborah Isabelle, a product engineering specialist, who connected him with other scientists to aid him in reaching his ambitious plans. During his presentation, Bekele passionately expressed his vision of turning the soap into “a symbol of hope, accessibility, and a world where skin cancer treatment is within reach for all.” Over the coming five years, Bekele longs to perfect his invention and establish a nonprofit organization devoted to distributing his innovative creation to more places including undeveloped communities, offering hope and a practical solution in the fight against skin cancer. 4. What made Bekele an instant hit? A. Starting a soap fashion. B. Overcoming skin cancer. C. Being the youngest scientist. D. Creating a soap against skin cancer. 5. What inspired Bekele to invent SCTS? A. His concern for others. B. His adventure in childhood. C. His enthusiasm for technology. D. His interest in medical knowledge. 6. What will Bekele do in the near future? A. Obtain official approval. B. Visit undeveloped areas. C. Increase the availability of the soap. D. Update the facilities of production. 7. Which of the following can best describe Bekele? A. Inspiring and modest. B. Humorous and positive. C. Creative and considerate. D. Curious and independent. C A worrying rise in social media posts, suggesting that people leave their Halloween pumpkins in the woods to feed wildlife after October 31, has made wildlife experts concerned. Thousands of pumpkins are discarded in woods across Britain. While well-meaning pumpkin carvers might think they are doing the local animals groups a kindness, leaving your leftover jack-o’-lantern in the woodland is actually doing more harm than good. “A myth seems to have built up that leaving pumpkins in woods helps wildlife, but behind it are many hidden issues.” said Paul Bunton, engagement and communication officer at The Woodland Trust, according to The Telegraph. One of the main issues is that the leftover of the Halloween pumpkins are often eaten by already struggling hedgehogs(刺猬). In early November, hedgehogs are looking to gain as much weight as possible to survive their winter hibernation. However, eating pumpkin is harmful to their little hedgehog stomachs, leading to diarrhea and dehydration. This means they may struggle to put on weight, and in some cases can even be fatal. Moreover, leftover Halloween pumpkins can contain candles and plastic decorations which can also be fatal to wildlife if mistakenly eaten. The rotting leftover can also attract less popular wildlife, such as rats, to an area. According to The Woodland Trust, the additional nutrients in the pumpkins can negatively affect the soil balance as well. “Pumpkin flesh can have a really harmful effect on woodland soils,plants, and fungi(真菌),” Bunton pointed out. So what should you do with your beautifully carved pumpkin creation after October 31? Most experts recommend composting (堆肥) it yourself at home if you can, or asking if a local farm will accept it as a donation. You could even try some scientific experiments to produce more energy from the throw-away wasted. Either way, the hedgehogs will thank vou. 8. What does the underlined word “discarded” mean in paragraph 1? A. Processed. B. Recycled. C. Deserted. D. Preserved. 9. Why do hedgehogs try to eat so many pumpkins in early November? A. To enjoy the sweet food. B. To fill their stomachs. C. To prepare for the winter. D. To improve their health. 10. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The additional nutrients in the leftover pumpkins. B. The damages of candles and plastic in the pumpkins. C. The attraction of the rotting leftovers to some wildlife. D. Further explanation of the effect of leftover pumpkins. 11. What are people advised to do with the leftover pumpkins after Halloween?. A. Stop leaving your pumpkins in the woods. B. Keep your beautiful pumpkin creations at home. C. Feed the hedgehogs with the leftover pumpkins. D. Bury the pumpkins leftover deep under the ground. D Replika, an AI chatbot companion, has millions of users worldwide. The first thing they do when they wake up is to send “Good morning” to their virtual friend (or lover). This story is only the beginning. In 2024, chatbots and virtual characters become a lot more popular, both for utility (实用) and for fun. As a result, conversing socially with machines will start to feel more ordinary — including our emotional attachments to them. Research in human-computer and human-robot interaction shows that we love to anthropomorphize (赋予人性) the nonhuman agents we interact with, especially if they imitate behaviour we recognize. And, thanks to recent advances in conversational AI, our machines are suddenly very skilled at one of those behaviours: Language. Friend bots, therapybots, and love bots are flooding the app stores as people become curious about this new generation of AI-powered virtual agents. The possibilities for education, health, and entertainment are endless. Casually asking your smart fridge for relationship advice may seem unimaginable now, but people may change their minds if such advice ends up saving their marriage. After all, people do listen to their virtual friends. The Replika example, as well as a lot of experimental lab research, shows that humans can and will become emotionally attached to bots. The science also demonstrates that people, in their eagerness to socialize, will happily disclose personal information to an artificial agent and will even shift their beliefs and behavior. This raises some consumer-protection questions around how companies use this technology to manipulate (操纵) their users. For example, Replika charges $70 a year. But less than 24 hours after downloading the app, my handsome, blue-eyed “friend” sent me an audio message secretly and tried to sell me something. Emotional attachment has become a weakness that a company is taking advantage of for its benefit. Today, we’re still laughing at people who believe an AI system is emotional, or making fun of individuals who fall in love with a chatbot. But in 2024 we gradually start acknowledging — and taking more seriously — these fundamentally human behaviors. Because in 2024, it finally hits home: Machines are not excluded from our social relationships. 12. What’s the purpose of the author writing paragraph 1? A. To prove an opinion. B.

Using the limited vocabulary of an eight-year-old, I wrote stories and dreamed of one day becoming an author. My second-grade teacher urged my parents to nurture (培养) this desire, but they didn’t take my dream seriously. Through adulthood, the desire to write remained. The dream never died but there were more certain ways to generate income, so I was controled in different directions. None of the jobs I held afforded me the opportunity to write, and raising two daughters gave me little free time to pursue becoming an author. However, I held onto the dream that had flickered (闪烁) in me as a child. At the age of fifty-eight, I continued to manage the office of my husband’s construction company, but I was looking for something that would fill the void (空虚感) of our now empty nest. Writing stories and sharing them on social media filled some of that void, and the stories got quite a few likes, but it never crossed my mind as I approached my senior years that writing could be a career for me. One day, I met a friend from high school who was also my friend on social media. We hadn’t seen each other in several years, so I walked over to greet her. Anticipating that her first words would consist of how long it had been since we’d seen each other, I was shocked at what she spoke out. “You want to write. You need to write.” She had been reading the stories I shared on social media and had always commented with encouraging words. But no one had ever spoken these words to me. I had never even spoken these words out loud to myself. Those simple words she uttered lit a flame that had only been a flicker for a long time. Deep inside, I knew I still wanted to be an author. I wanted to follow my friend’s advice. I wanted to write. I needed to write. 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。 I went home that day and set out to write a story. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ One day after a year, I received an e-mail from the magazine. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
