(巴罗萨谷葡萄酒之旅非常适合热衷文化的人，或者只是想测试一下自己的味蕾)”可知，该一日游适合文化爱好者参加，也适合那些单纯想要测试自己味蕾的人，可见，它的受众就是一般读者，不局限于特定群体。故选A。 B I was walking home when a well-dressed man politely stopped me. “Could you tell me which way to Bloor and…” He struggled to get the next word out with a pained look, but I knew better than to finish his sentence for him. “… Bathurst?” he said after several seconds of trying. When I answered, he told me that he didn’t actually need to know. He was practising stuttering (口吃) openly, he explained, hoping to become more confident doing so around strangers. “Are you doing that because it’s National Stuttering Awareness Day?” I asked with excitement, eager to connect with other stutterers. When he asked how I knew that, I said I grew up with a stutter. He nodded, asking hopefully: “So your stutter has magically disappeared?” I paused. I understood why he assumed this — I sounded quite fluent. But even as we spoke, my stutter had influenced my speech, and that’s why I’d misnamed International as National to avoid the tricky front sound that I continue to struggle with. Data shows four percent of all children stutter, while only one percent of them stutter into adulthood-a 75 percent drop. But are the supposed ex-stutters completely free of their stuttering past? Actually, though the severity of my stutter has decreased with age, it has shaped my identity and affected my life tremendously, informing the way that I speak, interact and move around in the world. Some define stutter as a disability because it is as constant and out of control as blindness or other disabilities. There’s no pill, no surgery, no way to get rid of it, no “recovering” from it. But there is recovering from the shame and self-hatred that result from it. Some researchers have begun to argue that treatment for stutter shouldn’t be centered around removing a person’s stutter, but rather on reducing one’s negative thoughts and behaviors surrounding it. As for me, I’d say that my stutter has not “magically disappeared” because I’ve simply found ways to conceal (隐藏) it. But I have a better therapy now-I will grow alongside it, an identity inseparable from the way that I speak. Thinking about this, I decided to tell the man, who was still looking at me hopefully: “______.” 4. The decent man stopped the author because he ______. A. lost his way and asked about the direction B. was very eager to connect with other stutterers C. wanted to be braver when talking to unfamiliar people D. was practising giving speeches fluently in open occasions 5. Why did the author misname the International as National in paragraph 2? A. Because he misremembered the name of this day. B. Because the National version is more familiar to people. C. Because it is quite difficult for him to make the sound “inter”. D. Because as a stutter, he can’t pronounce the word “international”. 6. What might be the author’s answer in the last paragraph? A. Yes. I have got rid of stutter by developing a more positive attitude towards life. B. No. There is no recovering from stutter and I have simply found ways to conceal it. C. Yes. As I grow older, I rarely stutter now and people around me don’t know I stuttered. D. No. I will always live with stutter because it is also apart of me and I gladly accept that. 7. What’s the best title for this passage? A. My stutter, myself B. New definitions for stutter C. Stutter, a life-changing disability D. A special encounter with stutterers 【答案】4. C 5. C 6. D 7. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。讲述了作者遇到一个穿着考究的男人来问路，虽然有口吃，但是男人阻止了作者的接话，因为他想在与陌生人交谈时更勇敢一些。这让作者想到了自己曾经也有口吃，但是作者选择了让口吃成为自己的一部分。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“He was practising stuttering (口吃) openly, he explained, hoping to become more confident doing so around strangers.(他解释说，他正在公开练习口吃，希望能在陌生人面前更自信)”可知，这个体面的男人阻止了作者，因为他想在与陌生人交谈时更勇敢一些。故选C。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“But even as we spoke, my stutter had influenced my speech, and that’s why I’d misnamed International as National to avoid the tricky front sound that I continue to struggle with.(但就在我们说话的时候，我的口吃已经影响了我的发音，这就是为什么我把“国际”误称为“国家”，以避免我一直在努力解决的棘手的前音)”可知，international与national区别在于inter，即，作者在第2段把“国际”误称为“国家”是因为他发“inter”这个音很困难。故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段问题“But are the supposed ex-stutters completely free of their stuttering past? (但是这些所谓的前口吃者是否完全摆脱了口吃的过去呢？)”及最后一段“As for me, I’d say that my stutter has not “magically disappeared” because I’ve simply found ways to conceal (隐藏) it. But I have a better therapy now-I will grow alongside it, an identity inseparable from the way that I speak.(至于我，我想说我的口吃并没有“神奇地消失”，因为我只是找到了隐藏它的方法。但我现在有了更好的治疗方法——我将与它一起成长，一种与我说话方式密不可分的身份)”可知，作者在最后一段的答案可能是：没有。我将永远带着口吃生活，因为它也是我的一部分，我很高兴地接受这一点。故选D。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“As for me, I’d say that my stutter has not “magically disappeared” because I’ve simply found ways to conceal (隐藏) it. But I have a better therapy now-I will grow alongside it, an identity inseparable from the way that I speak.(至于我，我想说我的口吃并没有“神奇地消失”，因为我只是找到了隐藏它的方法。但我现在有了更好的治疗方法——我将与它一起成长，一种与我说话方式密不可分的身份)”结合文章讲述了作者遇到一个穿着考究的男人来问路，虽然有口吃，但是男人阻止了作者的接话，因为他想在与陌生人交谈时更勇敢一些。这让作者想到了自己曾经也有口吃，但是作者选择了让口吃成为自己的一部分。可知，A选项“我的口吃——我的一部分”最符合文章标题。故选A。 C The conversational tone of an AI chatbot or voice-based assistant is a good way to learn new concepts, but it may actually make us more willing to believe inaccuracies, compared with information presented in a static (静态的) article. To investigate this issue, Sonja Utz from Germany asked 1,200 participants to engage with one of three formats. The first involved text appearing letter by letter in the style of a large model, similar to ChatGPT; the second provided information through a voice-based device; and the third was a static, text-based copy of content. Participants couldn’t interact with the systems as they might with the real versions, in order to keep the experience consistent across the study. In some cases, participants were given accurate information, while in others, they saw factual errors. Some of these errors were plain wrong, such as naming Sofia as the capital of France, but others involved certain statements that were contradicted elsewhere in the same response. Participants were asked to rate the accuracy of the information on a seven-point scale, where7 is entirely accurate. In the answers where errors were introduced, the information presented in a static format was rated as 4.24 on average. The ChatGPT-like system managed 4.76, while the voice assistant scored 5.29. Participants rated all of the systems higher for answers where no errors were introduced, but the differences were smaller for the voice assistant and chatbot. “People find conversational chat agents more convincing because humans seem to be hardwired to assign credibility to things that seem lifelike,” says Mike Katell from UK. “The way the chatbots and voice agents are programmed to use a friendly and helpful conversational tone also confuses people. Chatbot makers are trying to put users at ease, which is achieved through believable content and inoffensive delivery.” People have learned that these models generate false information sometimes. “But people don’t realize that this interaction mode makes us tend to believe whatever is written there.” Utz says. “That should be in media literacy training.” 8. What was the main focus of Sonja Utz’s study? A. Features of AI chatbots or voice-based assistants. B. People’s preference for information sources. C. Why static articles differ from conversational content. D. How text formats influence information trustworthiness. 9. In paragraph 3, text errors in the study can be summarized as________ A. inevitable and conflicting B. minor and common C. obvious and internally inconsistent D. repetitive and randomly selected 10. According to Mike Katell, which of the following is NOT a reason why people find conversational chat agents more convincing? A. People’s inborn trust in lifelike things. B. Inoffensive delivery of personalized content. C. The chatbot’s use of a gentle conversational tone. D. The makers’ intention to make users feel relaxed. 11. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage? A. Utz suggests people improve media awareness and competence. B. People’s preference for lifelike things may be overstated. C. How information is presented doesn’t affect how much we believe it. D. The research results are uncertain due to the lack of man-system interaction. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了关于人工智能聊天机器人或语音助手的对话式语气可能使人们更愿意相信不准确信息的研究，通过具体的实验数据和专家观点来解释和说明这一现象，旨在提高人们对媒介素养的认识。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“The conversational tone of an AI chatbot or voice-based assistant is a good way to learn new concepts, but it may actually make us more willing to believe inaccuracies, compared with information presented in a static(静态的) article.(人工智能聊天机器人或语音助手的对话式语气是学习新概念的好方法，但与静态文章中呈现的信息相比，它可能会让我们更愿意相信不准确的内容。)”以及第二段“To investigate this issue, Sonja Utz from Germany asked 1,200 participants to engage with one of three formats.(为了研究这个问题，来自德国的Sonja Utz邀请了1200名参与者参与三种不同形式的互动。)”可知，Sonja Utz研究主要关注的是文本格式（如静态文本、ChatGPT式的动态文本和语音助手）如何影响人们对信息的信任度。故选D。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“In some cases, participants were given accurate information, while in others, they saw factual errors. Some of these errors were plain wrong, such as naming Sofia as the capital of France, but others involved certain statements that were contradicted elsewhere in the same response.(在某些情况下，参与者会收到准确的信息，而在其他情况下，他们则会看到事实错误。其中一些错误显然是错误的，比如将索菲亚命名为法国的首都，而其他错误则涉及在同一条回复中的其他位置相互矛盾的陈述。)”可知，第三段提到文本错误的两种类型：一种是明显的错误，如将索菲亚命名为法国的首都；另一种是内部不一致的错误，即在同一回答中的其他位置存在相互矛盾的陈述。也就是说，研究中的文本错误可以总结为明显的和内部不一致的。故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第五段““People find conversational chat agents more convincing because humans seem to be hardwired to assign credibility to things that seem lifelike,” says Mike Katell from UK. “The way the chatbots and voice agents are programmed to use a friendly and helpful conversational tone also confuses people. Chatbot makers are trying to put users at ease, which is achieved through believable content and inoffensive delivery.”(“人们发现对话式聊天代理更具说服力，因为人类似乎天生就会对那些看起来逼真的事物赋予可信度，”来自英国的Mike Katell说道。“聊天机器人和语音助手被编程成使用友好且有帮助的对话语气，这也让人们感到困惑。聊天机器人制造商试图让用户感到轻松，这是通过可信的内容和不带冒犯性的表达方式来实现的。”)”可推测，选项B“Inoffensive delivery of personalized content.(个性化内容的无冒犯性传递。)”在Mike Katell的观点中并未提及。根据Mike Katell的观点，人们认为对话式聊天代理更具说服力的原因中，不包括个性化内容的无冒犯性传递。故选B。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“People have learned that these models generate false information sometimes. “But people don’t realize that this interaction mode makes us tend to believe whatever is written there.” Utz says. “That should be in media literacy training.”(人们已经知道这些模型有时会生成虚假信息。“但人们没有意识到这种交互模式会让我们倾向于相信上面写的任何内容。” Utz说。“这应该纳入媒介素养培训中。”)”可知，Utz建议人们提高媒介素养。故选A。 D Ask most scientists if we’re animals and you’ll get a funny look. Of course, we’re humans! But very commonly, humans are set apart from animals using random division. In 2018, a pair of long-tailed macaques were cloned to be used in biomedical research. A few years earlier, the United Nations stated that cloning people goes against human dignity. That may be a good ruling. But what exactly is dignity, and why do humans have it while intelligent, aware primates(灵长目动物) such as macaques do not? A macaque may not think or talk about dignity, but does that mean it doesn’t possess it? The fact is, biology won’t leap to our assistance here because dignity is a human invention. “Dignity” originates in Enlightenment dualist (二元论者) ideas separating cognition from physicality and instinct, and later a new binary emerged: the human mind and our physical bodies. In this worldview, the impulses and feelings of animal bodies (including our own) are viewed as less important than our mental experiences. Many of our laws and guidelines today create hard borders between humans and other animals on the basis of our supposedly superior mental properties. To maintain a strict boundary between our experiences and those of all other animals, we find ourselves prioritizing what we consider mind-based phenomena when making policies. So we demote experiences of fear and promote the idea that knowing fear — recognizing it, naming it — is what matters morally. We brush under the carpet the fact that these cognitive capacities, if present at all, change throughout our lives without altering our moral status. For example, babies experience fear but can’t conceptualize it. This doesn’t alter our belief in their moral subjecthood. I look at the history of science and psychology research to understand how our discomfort with some aspects of being animals — from moral confusion to mortality — can spur us to tell ourselves that we’re not really animals. I conclude that it’s time for a much-needed change in belief that no longer splits the world into unhelpful and unscientific binaries. The overwhelming bulk of scientific data from the past few decades points to how essential our animal, physical life is to our actions, feeling and thoughts. A research into child development has shown that significant, measurable advantages in acquiring language and mathematics follow the use of physical movement and gesture. We urgently need to get a handle on what it means to be an animal and move beyond old-fashioned dualism. It’s not just that we’re animals: embodied, physical experiences are richer and more meaningful than we’ve recognized. If that means we need to rethink our relationship to other animals, so be it. 12. What can we know about “dignity” in the passage? A. It is a term which separates humans from animals. B. It is a cognitive standard shared by all primates. C. It is an idea combining human body and mind. D. It is an emotional feature of human being. 13. Why does the author mention the example of babies in Para. 3? A. To prove cognitive ability is needed for moral subjecthood. B. To show the change of cognitive ability in moral development. C. To highlight the importance of cognitive ability in policy making. D. To stress the existence of moral status regardless of level of cognition. 14. What is the writer trying to propose? A. A shift away from dualistic thinking. B. A new method for scientific research. C. Less emphasis on physical experiences. D. More attention to cognitive development. 15. Which is the best title of the article? A. But We Are Animals, Aren’t We? B. Thus We Claim Dignity, Don’t We? C. But We Are Truly Different, Aren’t We? D. So We Prefer Our Animal Nature, Don’t We? 【答案】12. A 13. D 14. A 15. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。本文探讨了人类与动物之间的界限，特别是尊严的概念。文章指出，尊严是人类发明的，将人类与动物区分开来。作者认为，我们需要重新思考与动物的关系，并认识到身体体验比我们想象的更有意义。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Ask most scientists if we’re animals and you’ll get a funny look. Of course, we’re humans! But very commonly, humans are set apart from animals using random division. In 2018, a pair of long-tailed macaques were cloned to be used in biomedical research. A few years earlier, the United Nations stated that cloning people goes against human dignity. That may be a good ruling. But what exactly is dignity, and why do humans have it while intelligent, aware primates(灵长目动物) such as macaques do not?( 如果你问大多数科学家我们是否是动物，你会得到一个有趣的表情。当然，我们是人类！但通常情况下，人类和动物是通过随机划分来区分的。2018年，一对长尾猕猴被克隆用于生物医学研究。几年前，联合国声明克隆人类违背了人类的尊严。这可能是一个很好的裁决。但尊严到底是什么，为什么人类有尊严，而像猕猴这样聪明、有意识的灵长类动物却没有？)”以及第二段中““Dignity” originates in Enlightenment dualist (二元论者) ideas separating cognition from physicality and instinct, and later a new binary emerged: the human mind and our physical bodies.(‘尊严’起源于启蒙运动的二元论思想，将认知与肉体和本能分开，后来出现了一种新的二元观念：人类的心灵和我们的肉体。)”可知，“尊严”这个概念常常被用来区分人类和动物，它源于二元论思想，将人类和动物区分开来。故选A项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“So we demote experiences of fear and promote the idea that knowing fear — recognizing it, naming it — is what matters morally. We brush under the carpet the fact that these cognitive capacities, if present at all, change throughout our lives without altering our moral status. For example, babies experience fear but can’t conceptualize it. This doesn’t alter our belief in their moral subjecthood.( 因此，我们贬低了恐惧的体验，并提倡这样一种观念，即了解恐惧——识别恐惧、指出恐惧——在道德上才是重要的。我们忽略了这样一个事实，即这些认知能力，如果存在的话，会在我们的一生中发生变化，而不会改变我们的道德地位。例如，婴儿会经历恐惧，但无法将其概念化。这并没有改变我们对他们道德主体性的信念。)”可知，作者提到婴儿的例子是为了说明，尽管婴儿能体验到恐惧但不能概念化恐惧，即认知能力有限，但这并不改变我们对他们道德主体性的认知，也就是强调无论认知水平如何，道德地位都是存在的。故选D项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“I conclude that it’s time for a much-needed change in belief that no longer splits the world into unhelpful and unscientific binaries.( 我的结论是，现在是时候改变信念了，不再把世界分成无意义和不科学的二元论。)”以及最后一段中“We urgently need to get a handle on what it means to be an animal and move beyond old-fashioned dualism.( 我们迫切需要弄清楚作为动物意味着什么，并超越老式的二元论。)”可推知，作者认为我们需要改变观念，摆脱那种将世界划分为无意义且不科学的二元论的思维方式。故选A项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及第一段中“Ask most scientists if we’re animals and you’ll get a funny look. Of course, we’re humans! But very commonly, humans are set apart from animals using random division. In 2018, a pair of long-tailed macaques were cloned to be used in biomedical research. A few years earlier, the United Nations stated that cloning people goes against human dignity.( 如果你问大多数科学家我们是否是动物，你会得到一个有趣的表情。当然，我们是人类！但通常情况下，人类和动物是通过随机划分来区分的。2018年，一对长尾猕猴被克隆用于生物医学研究。几年前，联合国声明克隆人类违背了人类的尊严。)”可知，文章开篇提出人类常将自己与动物区分开，以“尊严”为例说明这种区分的不合理性，接着阐述了二元论的观念以及其带来的问题，最后呼吁人们摆脱二元论，认识到人类也是动物，身体体验的重要性。A 选项“But We Are Animals, Aren’t We?”（但我们是动物，不是吗？）符合文章主旨，强调我们应该认识到自己也是动物这一事实，适合作为文章的最佳标题。故选A项。 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。 Tourists walking along Australia’s Sunshine Coast now find an unusual souvenir (纪念品) shop. Instead of plastic toys, shelves are filled with sandcastle kits made from dried seaweed. These earth-friendly molds (模具) create temporary sculptures. ____16____ The “Ocean Shapes” company makes these special kits. Each $15 set includes three toys that break down naturally and are shaped like sea turtles, starfish, and seashells, plus a small digging tool. Their website says: “____17____ Watch them return to the sea. This is how vacation memories should disappear.” Bright green packaging shows children building a sandcastle that slowly disappears with the waves. “Every kit sold funds beach clean-up programs,” says the company’s boss, a former surfing star. Sunshine Coast’s white beaches attract millions yearly. ____18____ Last year, volunteers picked up over 12 tons of rubbish left by visitors just during Christmas. Old plastic beach toys make up 40% of this waste, taking 500 years to break down. Broken tools often hurt sea animals that think they’re food. ____19____ For twenty years, scientists have tried using seaweed instead of plastic. They boil seaweed into thick liquid, and then press it into shapes. Old versions had bad smells, but new methods remove them while keeping the material strong. Mayor Tom Carter likes the idea but says, “We ask visitors to buy local honey or handmade hats. Our surf schools now offer seaweed toys for free to make less waste. If you buy them and they don’t disappear fully, take the pieces away. ____20____” Next summer, his team will add bright yellow seaweed recycling boxes shaped like dolphins on busy beaches. A. The ocean isn’t a rubbish bin. B. Play with nature, not against it. C. Keep the material strong enough for play. D. Seaweed products are not completely new. E. You have to return the seaweed toys in advance. F. They can break down in the ocean within hours, not polluting it. G. Famous for clear water and surfing, this area has growing plastic problems. 【答案】16. F 17. B 18. G 19. D 20. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道，介绍了澳大利亚阳光海岸一家特别的纪念品商店，其售卖的“海洋形状”沙堡工具包由干海藻制成，环保且可自然降解，还介绍了该产品的特点、背后公司的理念以及当地面临的塑料污染问题等相关情况。 【16题详解】 根据前文“These earth-friendly molds (模具) create temporary sculptures.(这些环保模具能制作出临时的雕塑。)”可知，这些环保模具制作的是临时雕塑，而临时存在意味着会自然消失，不会造成污染。F选项“They can break down in the ocean within hours, not polluting it. (它们可以在几小时内在海洋中分解，不会污染海洋。)”进一步说明了这种环保模具的特性，即能快速降解且无污染，与前文的“temporary”和“earth-friendly”相呼应，符合语境。故选F项。 【17题详解】 根据后文“Watch them return to the sea. This is how vacation memories should disappear.(看着它们回归大海。这才是假期记忆应有的消散方式。)”可知，这些工具包会回归大海，以环保的方式让假期记忆消失，体现了与自然和谐相处的理念。B选项“Play with nature, not against it. (与自然共处，而非对抗。)”能够很好地概括这种理念，且与后文内容衔接紧密，符合语境。故选B项。 【18题详解】 根据前文“Sunshine Coast’s white beaches attract millions yearly.(阳光海岸的白色沙滩每年吸引着数百万人前来。)”可知，阳光海岸每年吸引数百万游客，根据后文“Last year, volunteers picked up over 12 tons of rubbish left by visitors just during Christmas. Old plastic beach toys make up 40% of this waste, taking 500 years to break down.(去年圣诞节期间，志愿者仅在这段时间就清理了超过12吨游客留下的垃圾。旧塑料沙滩玩具占这些垃圾的40%，它们需要500年才能降解。)”可知，去年圣诞节期间志愿者就捡了12吨多游客留下的垃圾，其中旧塑料沙滩玩具占40%，这说明该地区存在塑料污染问题。G选项“Famous for clear water and surfing, this area has growing plastic problems. (这个以清澈海水和冲浪闻名的地区，塑料问题日益严重。)”既介绍了该地区的优势，又引出了存在的塑料污染问题，起到了承上启下的作用，符合语境。故选G项。 【19题详解】 根据后文“For twenty years, scientists have tried using seaweed instead of plastic.

(海藻产品并不是全新的。)”能够引出下文，符合语境。故选D项。 【20题详解】 根据前文“Mayor Tom Carter likes the idea but says, “We ask visitors to buy local honey or handmade hats. Our surf schools now offer seaweed toys for free to make less waste. If you buy them and they don’t disappear fully, take the pieces away.(Tom Carter市长认可这个想法，他说：“我们建议游客购买当地的蜂蜜或手工帽子。我们的冲浪学校现在免费提供海藻玩具，以减少废弃物。如果你们购买了这些玩具，而它们没有完全降解，要把碎片带走。”)”可知，市长要求如果购买的海藻玩具没有完全消失，要把碎片带走，其目的是不让海洋成为垃圾桶。A选项“The ocean isn’t a rubbish bin. (海洋不是垃圾桶。)”是对前文要求的进一步强调和解释，符合语境。故选A项。 第三部分 语言运用（共四节，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。 My father’s thrift (节俭) philosophy shaped my youth.

My father and grandfather had all graduated from here. I could still remember how they showed me their notebooks, in which I saw faded pictures of their classes, familiar corners of the school and fascinating stories of their school days. Mrs. Patel added that the best three brochures would be displayed in the school library which was a chance to show the new students how wonderful our school was. I was paired with two classmates: Ansel, who loved photography, and Emma, who had a gift for writing. Working with others could be fun, right? But my enthusiasm was quickly dampened. Our first team meeting was disastrous. As we discussed which campus areas to highlight, Ansel kept switching the conversation toward cameras. I looked hopefully at Emma, who was tapping her pen restlessly on the table. “This whole thing feels pointless,” she muttered. To my disappointment, Ansel chuckled and added, “Yeah, it seems that no one would really read that brochure.” My heart sank as I realized the project might be tougher than expected. At our next meeting, I tried to change the situation. I shared some interesting facts I had researched about the school. However, neither of them seemed interested. They had both promised to do some research. But instead Ansel showed us photos taken on the weekend while Emma hadn’t started her part of the research, claiming she had been too busy. I felt like I was the only one who cared. Back home, I decided to take matters into my own hands. I stayed up late that night, tying to create the brochure by myself. But no matter how hard I tried, the result was far from satisfactory. I was exhausted and disheartened. My mom noticed I was upset. “You can’t do this alone,” she gently reminded me. “Ansel and Emma have talents that can make this project shine. You just need to find a way to get them involved.” 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。 With only three days left, I arranged the third meeting. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On the final day, we presented our brochure in class. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: With only three days left, I arranged the third meeting. With Mom’s words echoing in my mind, I chose to share with them my deep bond with the school. I brought my father’s and grandfather’s notebooks, showing them the faded photos and the fascinating stories. As they flipped through the pages, their eyes sparkled in amazement, a heartfelt pride for the school welling up. Inspired by the proud history spanning three generations, we found the right direction and dove into the project with renewed enthusiasm. This time, tasks were assigned according to everyone’s interest and unique talent. Ansel took charge of capturing photos of the campus from novel angles, while Emma paired them with heartfelt descriptions. As for me, I sought historical photos from the notebooks to add depth and richness to our brochure. The clock was ticking, but our earlier frustration and anxiety entirely melted away, replaced by shared passion and determination. On the final day, we presented our brochure in class. With each turn of the page, Ansel’s spectacular photography and Emma’s elegant writing left everyone in awe. But the most exciting moment came when the images of our school from decades ago were unfolded before the classmates. Leaning forward with wide eyes, they gasped in amazement, deeply captivated. Never in their wildest dreams had they expected that our seemingly ordinary campus could be portrayed so beautifully. Cheers and applause erupted in the classroom from time to time. Without doubt, our brochure won recognition and got displayed in the library. Overwhelmed with a profound sense of pride and achievement, we exclaimed, “We did it!” and hugged together tightly in celebration of our successful collaboration. Reflecting on the journey, I realized that it was the effort to tap into each person’s talent that united us to work as a true team. Just as my mom always says, we need to find a way to get everyone involved. 【解析】 【导语】本文以学校120周年纪念手册设计任务为线索，讲述作者与搭档安塞尔、艾玛在合作中因热情与投入度差异产生矛盾，后在母亲启发下，通过分享家族与学校的历史联结激发团队共鸣，最终三人发挥各自特长完成出色作品并收获认可的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“只剩下三天了，我安排了第三次会议。”可知，第一段可描写作者受母亲启发，在第三次会议上通过展示父亲和祖父的笔记本，唤起安塞尔和艾玛对学校的自豪感，随后三人按特长分工协作，全身心投入手册制作的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“最后一天，我们在课堂上展示了我们的宣传册。”可知，第二段可描写在课堂展示时，手册中安塞尔的摄影、艾玛的文字及学校历史影像深深打动众人，作品最终获得认可并在图书馆展出，三人在合作成功后相拥庆祝，作者也从中领悟到团队协作真谛的故事。 2. 续写线索：只剩三天安排会议 —— 展示家族笔记激发共鸣 —— 按特长分工合作 —— 课堂展示手册获赞 —— 作品入馆展出 —— 团队拥抱庆祝 —— 领悟协作意义 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①展示：show /display ②投入：dove into /throw oneself into ③意识到：realized/be aware 情绪类 ①惊叹：amazement/shock/astonishment ②自豪：pride /proud 【点睛】[高分句型1] As they flipped through the pages, their eyes sparkled in amazement, a heartfelt pride for the school welling up.（运用了as引导的时间状语从句以及独立主格结构） [高分句型2] Never in their wildest dreams had they expected that our seemingly ordinary campus could be portrayed so beautifully.（运用了否定词前置的部分倒装句） [高分句型3] Overwhelmed with a profound sense of pride and achievement, we exclaimed, “We did it!” and hugged together tightly in celebration of our successful collaboration.（运用了过去分词短语作状语） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025-2026学年度高三期初考试模拟测试 英语 2025.9 第一部分 听力（共两节, 满分30分) 做题时, 先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 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，并标在试卷的相应位置。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。 1.

B I was walking home when a well-dressed man politely stopped me. “Could you tell me which way to Bloor and…” He struggled to get the next word out with a pained look, but I knew better than to finish his sentence for him. “… Bathurst?” he said after several seconds of trying. When I answered, he told me that he didn’t actually need to know. He was practising stuttering (口吃) openly, he explained, hoping to become more confident doing so around strangers. “Are you doing that because it’s National Stuttering Awareness Day?” I asked with excitement, eager to connect with other stutterers. When he asked how I knew that, I said I grew up with a stutter. He nodded, asking hopefully: “So your stutter has magically disappeared?” I paused. I understood why he assumed this — I sounded quite fluent. But even as we spoke, my stutter had influenced my speech, and that’s why I’d misnamed International as National to avoid the tricky front sound that I continue to struggle with. Data shows four percent of all children stutter, while only one percent of them stutter into adulthood-a 75 percent drop. But are the supposed ex-stutters completely free of their stuttering past? Actually, though the severity of my stutter has decreased with age, it has shaped my identity and affected my life tremendously, informing the way that I speak, interact and move around in the world. Some define stutter as a disability because it is as constant and out of control as blindness or other disabilities. There’s no pill, no surgery, no way to get rid of it, no “recovering” from it. But there is recovering from the shame and self-hatred that result from it. Some researchers have begun to argue that treatment for stutter shouldn’t be centered around removing a person’s stutter, but rather on reducing one’s negative thoughts and behaviors surrounding it. As for me, I’d say that my stutter has not “magically disappeared” because I’ve simply found ways to conceal (隐藏) it. But I have a better therapy now-I will grow alongside it, an identity inseparable from the way that I speak. Thinking about this, I decided to tell the man, who was still looking at me hopefully: “______.” 4. The decent man stopped the author because he ______. A. lost his way and asked about the direction B. was very eager to connect with other stutterers C. wanted to be braver when talking to unfamiliar people D. was practising giving speeches fluently in open occasions 5. Why did the author misname the International as National in paragraph 2? A. Because he misremembered the name of this day. B. Because the National version is more familiar to people. C. Because it is quite difficult for him to make the sound “inter”. D. Because as a stutter, he can’t pronounce the word “international”. 6. What might be the author’s answer in the last paragraph? A. Yes. I have got rid of stutter by developing a more positive attitude towards life. B. No. There is no recovering from stutter and I have simply found ways to conceal it. C. Yes. As I grow older, I rarely stutter now and people around me don’t know I stuttered. D. No. I will always live with stutter because it is also apart of me and I gladly accept that. 7. What’s the best title for this passage? A. My stutter, myself B. New definitions for stutter C. Stutter, a life-changing disability D. A special encounter with stutterers C The conversational tone of an AI chatbot or voice-based assistant is a good way to learn new concepts, but it may actually make us more willing to believe inaccuracies, compared with information presented in a static (静态的) article. To investigate this issue, Sonja Utz from Germany asked 1,200 participants to engage with one of three formats. The first involved text appearing letter by letter in the style of a large model, similar to ChatGPT; the second provided information through a voice-based device; and the third was a static, text-based copy of content. Participants couldn’t interact with the systems as they might with the real versions, in order to keep the experience consistent across the study. In some cases, participants were given accurate information, while in others, they saw factual errors. Some of these errors were plain wrong, such as naming Sofia as the capital of France, but others involved certain statements that were contradicted elsewhere in the same response. Participants were asked to rate the accuracy of the information on a seven-point scale, where7 is entirely accurate. In the answers where errors were introduced, the information presented in a static format was rated as 4.24 on average. The ChatGPT-like system managed 4.76, while the voice assistant scored 5.29. Participants rated all of the systems higher for answers where no errors were introduced, but the differences were smaller for the voice assistant and chatbot. “People find conversational chat agents more convincing because humans seem to be hardwired to assign credibility to things that seem lifelike,” says Mike Katell from UK. “The way the chatbots and voice agents are programmed to use a friendly and helpful conversational tone also confuses people. Chatbot makers are trying to put users at ease, which is achieved through believable content and inoffensive delivery.” People have learned that these models generate false information sometimes. “But people don’t realize that this interaction mode makes us tend to believe whatever is written there.” Utz says. “That should be in media literacy training.” 8. What was the main focus of Sonja Utz’s study? A. Features of AI chatbots or voice-based assistants. B. People’s preference for information sources. C. Why static articles differ from conversational content. D. How text formats influence information trustworthiness. 9. In paragraph 3, text errors in the study can be summarized as________ A. inevitable and conflicting B. minor and common C. obvious and internally inconsistent D. repetitive and randomly selected 10. According to Mike Katell, which of the following is NOT a reason why people find conversational chat agents more convincing? A. People’s inborn trust in lifelike things. B. Inoffensive delivery of personalized content. C. The chatbot’s use of a gentle conversational tone. D. The makers’ intention to make users feel relaxed. 11. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage? A. Utz suggests people improve media awareness and competence. B. People’s preference for lifelike things may be overstated. C. How information is presented doesn’t affect how much we believe it. D. The research results are uncertain due to the lack of man-system interaction. D Ask most scientists if we’re animals and you’ll get a funny look. Of course, we’re humans! But very commonly, humans are set apart from animals using random division. In 2018, a pair of long-tailed macaques were cloned to be used in biomedical research. A few years earlier, the United Nations stated that cloning people goes against human dignity. That may be a good ruling. But what exactly is dignity, and why do humans have it while intelligent, aware primates(灵长目动物) such as macaques do not? A macaque may not think or talk about dignity, but does that mean it doesn’t possess it? The fact is, biology won’t leap to our assistance here because dignity is a human invention. “Dignity” originates in Enlightenment dualist (二元论者) ideas separating cognition from physicality and instinct, and later a new binary emerged: the human mind and our physical bodies. In this worldview, the impulses and feelings of animal bodies (including our own) are viewed as less important than our mental experiences. Many of our laws and guidelines today create hard borders between humans and other animals on the basis of our supposedly superior mental properties. To maintain a strict boundary between our experiences and those of all other animals, we find ourselves prioritizing what we consider mind-based phenomena when making policies. So we demote experiences of fear and promote the idea that knowing fear — recognizing it, naming it — is what matters morally. We brush under the carpet the fact that these cognitive capacities, if present at all, change throughout our lives without altering our moral status. For example, babies experience fear but can’t conceptualize it. This doesn’t alter our belief in their moral subjecthood. I look at the history of science and psychology research to understand how our discomfort with some aspects of being animals — from moral confusion to mortality — can spur us to tell ourselves that we’re not really animals. I conclude that it’s time for a much-needed change in belief that no longer splits the world into unhelpful and unscientific binaries. The overwhelming bulk of scientific data from the past few decades points to how essential our animal, physical life is to our actions, feeling and thoughts. A research into child development has shown that significant, measurable advantages in acquiring language and mathematics follow the use of physical movement and gesture. We urgently need to get a handle on what it means to be an animal and move beyond old-fashioned dualism. It’s not just that we’re animals: embodied, physical experiences are richer and more meaningful than we’ve recognized. If that means we need to rethink our relationship to other animals, so be it. 12. What can we know about “dignity” in the passage? A. It is a term which separates humans from animals. B. It is a cognitive standard shared by all primates. C. It is an idea combining human body and mind. D. It is an emotional feature of human being. 13. Why does the author mention the example of babies in Para. 3? A. To prove cognitive ability is needed for moral subjecthood. B. To show the change of cognitive ability in moral development. C. To highlight the importance of cognitive ability in policy making. D To stress the existence of moral status regardless of level of cognition. 14 What is the writer trying to propose? A. A shift away from dualistic thinking. B. A new method for scientific research. C. Less emphasis on physical experiences. D. More attention to cognitive development. 15. Which is the best title of the article? A. But We Are Animals, Aren’t We? B. Thus We Claim Dignity, Don’t We? C. But We Are Truly Different, Aren’t We? D. So We Prefer Our Animal Nature, Don’t We? 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。 Tourists walking along Australia’s Sunshine Coast now find an unusual souvenir (纪念品) shop. Instead of plastic toys, shelves are filled with sandcastle kits made from dried seaweed. These earth-friendly molds (模具) create temporary sculptures. ____16____ The “Ocean Shapes” company makes these special kits.

My father and grandfather had all graduated from here. I could still remember how they showed me their notebooks, in which I saw faded pictures of their classes, familiar corners of the school and fascinating stories of their school days. Mrs. Patel added that the best three brochures would be displayed in the school library which was a chance to show the new students how wonderful our school was. I was paired with two classmates: Ansel, who loved photography, and Emma, who had a gift for writing. Working with others could be fun, right? But my enthusiasm was quickly dampened. Our first team meeting was disastrous. As we discussed which campus areas to highlight Ansel kept switching the conversation toward cameras. I looked hopefully at Emma, who was tapping her pen restlessly on the table. “This whole thing feels pointless,” she muttered. To my disappointment, Ansel chuckled and added, “Yeah, it seems that no one would really read that brochure.” My heart sank as I realized the project might be tougher than expected. At our next meeting, I tried to change the situation. I shared some interesting facts I had researched about the school. However, neither of them seemed interested. They had both promised to do some research. But instead Ansel showed us photos taken on the weekend while Emma hadn’t started her part of the research, claiming she had been too busy. I felt like I was the only one who cared. Back home, I decided to take matters into my own hands. I stayed up late that night, tying to create the brochure by myself. But no matter how hard I tried, the result was far from satisfactory. I was exhausted and disheartened. My mom noticed I was upset. “You can’t do this alone,” she gently reminded me. “Ansel and Emma have talents that can make this project shine. You just need to find a way to get them involved.” 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。 With only three days left, I arranged the third meeting. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On the final day, we presented our brochure in class. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
