B Sound artist Stuart Fowkes has been collecting field recordings for a decade for his Cities and Memory project,which features over 7,000 samples from some 2,000 contributors covering 130 countries.Its latest branch,Sonic Heritage,takes in 270 UNESCO (United Nations Educational,Scientific and Cultural Organization)sites and includes recordings of crickets chirping in Florence and the sounds from within India's Taj Mahal. “Sound is so immersive(沉浸式的)，”said Fowkes.“It can transport you back to somewhere you've visited before,or drop you dramatically into an entirely new space." He explained how the project offers an alternative way of experiencing some of the world's most visited sites that go beyond tourist groups and gift shops."If you think about world heritage sites,all you think of is crowds and camera shutters (and everything being ruined by over-tourism,"he said."Those sounds are interesting in their settings,but what struck me was that a lot of these spaces just sound really amazing and beautiful in their own right..” From this project,people can have everything from sites related to natural heritage-the migratory patterns of whales and birds,for example-to spaces that have been designed to 封 look and sound extraordinary.One of Fowkes'favorite recordings is the sounds of people at work."They remind you that behind the postcards are the people who live there,and this is a part of their daily lives,"he said. He added that one aim of the project was to stoke a debate around preserving the diversity of soundscapes (at popular locations."Do any of these sites have sounds that are valuable as experiences themselves?"he said."The answer is yes-but when we think about the preservation of a site,sound is not often considered. "To achieve that,it's important that people who visit these spaces actually value sound. This project is a first step in that journey,"he said. 线 24.What does Fowkes'Cities and Memory project focus on? A.Preserving historical records of tourists. B.Collecting visual images of heritage sites. C.Selling postcards related to natural heritage. D.Recording sounds of various popular locations. 25.What does Fowkes say about sounds at heritage sites? A.They are destroyed by cameras. B.They are naturally beautiful. C.They are ruined by over-tourism. D.They interrupt visitors'attention. 【高三英语第4页（共10页）】 26.Why does Fowkes prefer the sounds of people at work in natural heritage sites? A.They are part of his project. B.They sound most impressive. C.They reflect the culture preservers. D.They are reminders of postcards. 27.What does the underlined word "stoke"in paragraph 5 mean? A.Bring about. B.Break up. C.Get around. D.Make out C Not all movement is equal.Walking your dog,riding a bike with friends,or joining a dance class tends to feel good.But scrubbing (floors or jogging to make it to work might not.Even if the physical effort is the same,the experience-and its emotional impact- can be very different. To explore this,the researchers from the Mary Frances Early College of Education's 弥 Department of Kinesiology at the University of Georgia,reviewed three kinds of studies: large population surveys,randomized controlled trials (RCTs),and a smaller group of studies focused specifically on context. The large-scale data showed clear patterns:People who engage in regular leisure-time physical activity-things they choose to do for enjoyment-tend to report less depression and anxiety. For example,if a soccer player runs down the field and kicks the game-winning ball, their mental health is fantastic.In contrast,if you do the exact same exercise but miss the goal and people are blaming you,you likely feel very differently.Short stories such as these 封 show how context matters even when people are performing the same amount of exercise.In other words,the same movement can either lift you up or drag you down depending on the situation. While RCTs confirmed that regular exercise can improve mental health-especially for people already dealing with anxiety or depression-most of these studies were short-term and used small,similar groups of people.That limits how much we can apply the findings to the wider public. What's still missing-and possibly the most important piece-is a better understanding of the setting and experience.Who were you with?Was it social or solitary?Did it feel rewarding? 线 "If we're trying to help people's mental health with exercise,then not only do we need to think about the amount and the form,we also need to ask:What is the context?"said Patrick O'Connor,a professor in the Mary Frances Early College of Education's Department of Kinesiology at the University of Georgia. 28.What primarily causes different emotional responses to similar physical efforts? A.The duration of the exercise. B.The context where activity occurs. C.The type of movement involved. D.The intensity of physical activity. 29.How does the author present the result of the research? A.By giving examples. B.By defining a concept. C.By quoting an expert. D.By providing statistics. 【高三英语第5页（共10页）】 30.What is a limitation of RCTs? A.They lacked financial support. B.They failed to meet the expectations. C.Their results could not be popularized. D.They focused only on structured exercise. 31.What can be a suitable title for the text? A.Where Is The Best Exercise Place? B.Which Exercise Improves Mood More? C.Why Does Exercise Boost Mental Health? D.How Does Activity Context Shape Emotions? D With long waitlists and limited success from traditional talk therapy ()many kids are still falling through the cracks.For some,sitting in a therapist's office just doesn't work. But therapy sessions held outdoors,with horses as part of the team,are starting to make a real difference.A recent study from the University of South Australia shows that equine- assisted(马术辅助的)therapy is shifting the way social workers support children. Equine-assisted intervention (EAI)is a form of therapy that brings children and horses together in natural,outdoor settings.The sessions are led by trained mental health professionals working alongside experienced equine practitioners.And the results,according to those involved,can be life-changing. The study found that children often connect more easily in this environment than they do in traditional therapy rooms.The calm of nature,the presence of horses,and the physical space to move and breathe-these all contribute to a sense of safety and openness. The connection doesn't happen by chance.Horses are naturally sensitive to human emotions and body language.The horses reflect the feelings of the child standing next to them.This mirroring effect can help children understand and manage their emotions in ways they haven't before. Therapists working in these settings don't just use the horses-they also use the land. Sessions might include walking barefoot in sand,noticing animal tracks,or standing quietly with a horse.These simple activities help children feel grounded and present. "The benefits go beyond mental health,"said Stacy,a graduate from the University of South Australia who led the study."Children often gain confidence,improve communication skills,and build stronger emotional resilience(复原力).” "But this kind of therapy isn't widely available,"Stacy added."It costs a lot to care for horses and maintain rural therapy spaces.Without funding support-from programs like the NDIS (National Disability Insurance Scheme)or child protection services-many families just can't afford it.” 32.What can we say about talk therapy? A.It doesn't work. B.It doesn't suit kids. C.It's quite successful. D.It isn't a cure for all. 【高三英语第6页（共10页）】 33.How may kids feel when participating in EAI sessions? A.Scared and breathless. B.Excited and fulfilled. C.Secure and open. D.Nervous but pleased. 34.How do horses aid children in managing emotions during therapy? A.By mirroring children's emotions. B.By controlling children's stress. C.By providing companionship. D.By teaching kids horse-riding skills. 35.What is Stacy's attitude towards the equine-assisted therapy? A.Skeptical. B.Objective. C.Unclear. D.Opposed. 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。 In many modern hiring processes,candidates don't speak to a human right away. Instead,they're asked to record responses on cameras while artificial intelligence (AI) analyzes their performance.36 They also interpret facial expressions,voice tone, posture,and choice of vocabulary.Here are some tips for you to improve your success rate. Practice with a camera,not a mirror.Practicing in front of a mirror can help with small visual cues.37A recorded video gives you a full picture-posture,tone of voice,pacing, and eye contact included.Watching yourself on playback helps you notice behaviors you might not be aware of:sitting lazily,chatting aimlessly,or making tense twitching movements like touching your face.It also lets you test lighting,background,and audio quality. 38 Speaking too quickly can come off as rushed or anxious,while speaking too slowly may seem like you're struggling to articulate your thoughts.AI programs may evaluate pacing as a sign of emotional state or communication skills.Aim for 115-130 words per minute-a range that's been shown to be ideal for clarity and confidence. Maintain open and upright posture.39 An upright posture with relaxed shoulders, uncrossed arms,and steady breathing communicates openness and confidence.Studies have shown that "power posing"-holding expansive positions-can make people feel more self- assured,which is helpful before high-stress situations. Dress in a way that reflects the role.Even though you're not meeting someone in person, appearance still matters.Clean,professional attire signals that you take the opportunity seriously.AI systems may evaluate visual presentation as part of a general impression score, and recruiters reviewing the footage also take note.40 A.Keep a medium speaking pace. B.Familiarize yourself with the plan. C.These AI systems assess more than just your words. D.But it doesn't accurately reflect how others will perceive you on screen. E.Body language influences both your own mindset and how others perceive you. F.AI systems may interpret facial expression data to assess emotional intelligence. G.Avoid overly bright colors that might take attention away from your face and words. 【高三英语第7页（共10页）】 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： As a woman born in a small tribal village hidden in the hills of Chhindwara district, India,I knew life here wasn't about dreaming of distant mountains.It was 41 in simplicity.But the steep slopes (of my village perhaps gave me an early taste of the 42 my life would later reach.
