B Like many high school students,Dio is a 15-year-old sports and music lover.However,unlike many others his age,Dio has faced-and conquered-unthinkable health challenges over the past year.It's hard to believe he couldn't speak or walk less than a year ago. Dio,then a freshman in high school,went from daily sports practices to being unable to open his right hand.Dio's mother took him to hospital,where they received shocking and frightening news:Dio had a brain tumor ()Within three days,he received a successful 13-hour operation.But while recovering in hospital,Dio had a stroke ()which left him unable to feel or use the right side of his body and unable to communicate."I was faced with a really big mountain to climb,but I was determined to make it through," shares Dio. He stayed in hospital to receive physical,speech and language therapy ()Before his stroke,Dio had taught himself to play both the piano and guitar and listened to music any chance he could.Blake French,Dio's Speech therapist,had read several research studies on the benefits of music for patients.So, once she learned that singing and music were areas of strength for Dio,she regularly applied it to the therapy. Together,Dio and Blake sang familiar songs,one word at a time.Music helped Dio communicate so much better,and helped him recover his confidence.Months later,Dio was allowed to go back to school. Although he cannot play sports anymore now,he still plays the guitar and piano."Music has enabled me to talk normally again.It got me over a really big mountain I was determined to climb,"shares Dio.

U Deep Sea:To Mine Or Not To Mine A robot as large as a truck moves along the bottom of the deep sea.It eats metallic(含金属的)rock and soft mud.They travel up a long pipe to a ship,where workers and machinery separate out the rock and throw the mud back into the ocean.This is a mining operation.The rock contains a mixture of metals, including ones called rare earth metals.People use these materials to make batteries and electronics like computers and phones. Deep-sea mining hasn't happened yet.But it probably will occur within the next decade.No country owns any part of the deep sea,so a UN organization called the International Seabed Authority (ISA)decides who is allowed to mine there.It has allowed 29 organizations to explore the deep sea and make plans for mining,one of which plans to begin mining in the year 2027. Scientists and environmentalists,though,warn that mining could destroy deep-sea ecosystem.In 1989, ecologist Hjalmar Thiel carried out a test.His team searched the seafloor of the Pacific Ocean,in a spot with lots of the metallic rocks that miners wanted.They didn't actually collect any of the rocks.But they disturbed the mud,just as a mining operation would.The cloud of mud fell back down over the ocean floor burying creatures living there.Up to now,the area they disturbed has not recovered.Signs of the search are still there.Deep sea creatures like sponges and corals have not moved back in.That means mining could have detrimental,long-lasting consequences for deep ocean life.Scientists want to understand the deep sea better before disturbing it. Leaving the deep sea alone sounds great,but people need those metals."Mines on land are soon going to run out,"geologist Steven Scolt of the University of Toronto told Smithsonian Magazine."Every electronic device in the world has rare earth metals in it...we need raw resources."New energy technologies including solar and wind power and electric cars rely on these metals as well.We may need to mine them from the sea in order to switch to greener energy sources. 第5页共11页 28.According to the passage,why do people want to carry out deep sea mining? A.To test the mining robot. B.To collect rare earth metals. C.To separate the rock from mud.D.To understand the deep sea better. 29.What can we infer from the test of Hjalmar Thiel in 1989? A.They gathered some metallic rocks the miners wanted. B.They helped the recovery of the disturbed mining areas. C.They discovered the deep-sea mining had affected the ocean ecology. D.They found the rare metallic rocks were harmful to sea creatures. 30.What does the underlined word"detrimental"in Paragraph 3 most probably mean? A.Appealing.B.Harmful. C.Helpful. D.Impressive. 31.What is Steven Scolt's attitude towards deep-sea mining? A.Doubtful.B.Neutral. C.Supportive. D.Disapproving. D Can you think of someone who is an excellent communicator?He must have good skills of speaking confidently in various situations,including presentations,group discussions and activities.Also,he should be good at listening to others,understanding group dynamics,and promoting shared decision-making. Research on classroom-based group work reveals a paradox ()while cooperative learning can be highly effective,merely placing children in groups often proves unproductive.The solution lies in teaching children how to cooperate effectively.Teachers play a crucial role in this process through their interaction with students. To ensure effective group work,teachers must first raise students'awareness of the purpose and value of group activities.More importantly,they need to teach students how to engage in reasoned discussions, known as Exploratory Talk.This involves considering everyone's viewpoints,justifying opinions with reasons,and making collective decisions.In Exploratory Talk,participants engage critically but constructively with each other's ideas,invite contributions,and seek further explanations. Successful cooperation requires a reasoned discussion,which can be facilitated by establishing a set of "Ground Rules"for Exploratory Talk.These rules guide behaviours such as asking for information,seeking and providing reasons,and evaluating proposals.Ground Rules help children work towards joint conclusions,respect opinions,and develop their ideas.For instance,children learn to ask,"What do you think?Why?"and listen attentively to each other's responses,reaching reasoned conclusions. Exploratory Talk enhances group activities as a powerful learning tool.Certain activities,like Talking Points,are particularly effective in stimulating such discussions.Talking Points are inspiring statements 第6页共11页 designed to encourage children to share their knowledge and ideas on a specific topic.Research indicates that Talking Points bring about more imaginative and extensive responses than traditional questions.They help children focus on the topic and compare their viewpoints with others'.As they discuss,children realize that their ideas can develop with new evidence and that classmates are valuable resources for new thinking. With proper guidance,the students will soon begin to see their ideas flowing.And gradually they will learn to participate fully not only in education but also in life as well. 32.What may help solve the group work paradox? A.Active interaction among teachers.B.Group learning among students. C.Teachers'effective guidance.D.Students'deep engagement. 33.Why should Ground Rules be set for the students? A.To popularize group activities.B.To build up their individuality. C.To stimulate more proposals.D.To encourage reasoning in talks. 34.What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A.Students should be challenged with uncertainties. B.Traditional questions should be avoided in class. C.Well-designed brainstorming matters in group activities. D.Idea exchanges between the students deserve top priority. 35.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A.The Paradox of Cooperative Learning and Its Solution B.Impact of Effective Communicators in Group Discussion C.Teaching Children to Cooperate in Classroom Group Work D.Exploratory Talk as a Powerful Learning Tool in Group Work 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。 The Olympics are entering a new age,with artificial intelligence set to reshape every respect of the Games._ 36 Here's how: Perfecting talent Every four years,countries pour millions into identifying and training the best athletes in hopes of gaining more medals than their competitors.37 With increasing wearable technology accessible to more youth athletes,the previous problem of not having enough data is rapidly going away.Training plans are also totally changed by Al,with more automatic training equipment put into application. Judging upgrades 第7页共11页 38 Machine judging is perhaps the most visible in professional baseball,where machines measure athletes'performance instantly to contribute to fair judgement.Garrett Beaty,a sports performance expert,predicts AI judging will outperform humans within 5-10 years.After all,AI technology ensures decisions are emotion-free and fact-based.39 Organizing the Olympics is a demanding task.One of the biggest difficulties is that host cities have to sort out a wide range of information to prepare for such a big event.Over the seven-year cycle,cities are expected to build up a small army of committee members who organize the competitions,stadiums, transportation,communication and so on.AI might help analyse data and address problems,reducing the preparation efforts. As AI continues to change daily life,we may see these advances of the Olympics.With the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics approaching,AI is likely to be the game changer.40 A.Improving equipment performance. B.Simplifying the process of preparation. C.Now,AI is bringing much convenience. D.AI can predict athletes'injuries,allowing early medical treatment. E.Its application will definitely make the Games more smooth and successful. F.Human judges suffer from tiredness and previous opinions,while Al offers fairness. G.From athlete training to event management,AI promises to bring significant changes. 第二部分语言运用（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。 Kamau is an experienced Uber driver.On a sunny day in Alabama he picked up AlexTisdale,who is nineteen years old for a 15-minute 41 to John Hawkins Parkway in Hoover.During the journey,Alex couldn't 42 his excitement and pride.His eyes 43 as he shared the achievements that he made recently,like winning a significant academic 44.He talked about how his father had praised him,saying, "He said something that made me feel really special."

For young Dakota Wollan,the prom night was not something he couldn't wait for.In fact,he had no idea who to ask to go with him to the special event.When Dakota told his parents that he didn't have anyone in mind,his dad had an idea.He figured,since Dakota's great-grandma Madeline had never been to a prom, it would be fun to share this experience with her great-grandson.
