El Calafate, Argentina Every day, groups of buses depart El Calafate for the Perito Moreno glacier — an accessible icy sight, and one of the world’s few advancing glaciers. A series of boardwalks lead to various viewpoints that allow you to be amazed at this shining, blue-white wall of ice. Futaleufú, Chile Imagine it: you and the rest of the rafting crew are waiting for the signal from the rafting guide to row like your life depends on it. Huge river waves are hitting the boat and white-water spray showers you head to foot. You wipe the water out of your eyes and enjoy the sunshine when people in the Northern Hemisphere suffer from the freezing cold, and there are numerous guesthouses where you can base yourself. Cueva de las Manos, Argentina In a hidden canyon, reachable by tour or your own wheels, a boardwalk leads you past a vast overhanging rock face, decorated with ancient rock art. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is one of the most famous rock art sites in South America, with over 800 outlines of human hands and feet of wildlife. Punta Tombo, Argentina You smell the penguins before you see them. The presence of nearly a million Magellanic penguins — some hiding underground, some going fishing in the sea, others standing around — is a powerful effect on your senses. The long, narrow peninsula also attracts gulls, flightless steamer ducks, and black oystercatchers. 1. What can you do in El Calafate, Argentina? A. Carve icy walls. B. Admire glaciers. C. Enjoy bus tours. D. Decorate boardwalks. 2. In which month can you take on the white-water rafting trips? A. January. B. May. C. August. D. October. 3. Where should you go if you are interested in observing live wildlife? A. Futaleufú, Chile B. El Calafate, Argentina C. Punta Tombo, Argentina D. Cueva de las Manos, Argentina 【答案】1. B 2. A 3. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了位于南半球的巴塔哥尼亚地区及其周边几个适合户外探险的地点。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据El Calafate, Argentina部分中“A series of boardwalks lead to various viewpoints that allow you to be amazed at this shining, blue-white wall of ice. ( 一系列的木板路通向不同的视角，让你惊叹于这闪闪发光的蓝白色冰墙。)”可知，你可以在阿根廷的埃尔卡拉法特通过一系列的木板路到达不同的观赏点，欣赏这闪闪发光的蓝白色冰墙。故选B。 【2题详解】 推理判断题。根据Futaleufú, Chile部分中“Huge river waves are hitting the boat and white-water spray showers you head to foot. You wipe the water out of your eyes and enjoy the sunshine when people in the Northern Hemisphere suffer from the freezing cold, and there are numerous guesthouses where you can base yourself. (巨大的河浪打在船上，白色的水花从你的头喷到脚。当北半球的人们在寒冷中受苦时，你可以擦去眼睛里的水，享受阳光，还有无数的宾馆可以让你歇脚。)”可知，当北半球的人们饱受严寒之苦时，你可以在Futaleufú享受阳光，进行漂流。由此可以推断，“白水漂流之旅”应该在南半球的夏季进行，即12月到2月之间。故选A。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Punta Tombo, Argentina部分中“The presence of nearly a million Magellanic penguins — some hiding underground, some going fishing in the sea, others standing around — is a powerful effect on your senses. The long, narrow peninsula also attracts gulls, flightless steamer ducks, and black oystercatchers. ( 近百万只麦哲伦企鹅的存在——有的躲藏在地底下，有的出海捕鱼，还有的四处闲逛——会给你的感官带来强烈的震撼。这个狭长半岛还吸引着海鸥、无法飞翔的船鸭和黑蛎鹬。)”可知，如果你对观察野生生物感兴趣，你应该去Punta Tombo。故选C。 B Brights Zoo in Limestone, Tennessee is celebrating the birth of a very unusual baby reticulated giraffe (网纹长颈鹿). Born perfectly healthy, it just doesn’t have any spots. The zoo is asking for help from the public to name the unique animal. Tall, long-necked giraffes are famous for their spots. The spots are believed to help the animals hide from predators. Just like no two humans have the same fingerprints, each giraffe has its own special pattern of spots. David Bright, who runs the zoo, told Newsweek, “This is beyond rare. The last time this happened was 1972 in Japan.” Currently, the young giraffe is believed to be the only spotless giraffe in the world. A giraffe’s pattern of spots is created when the animal is still growing inside its mother, which means that this giraffe will never have spots. Mr. Bright says that the new giraffe might not have survived if she had been born in the wild. “Being solid colored, she may not be able to hide quite as well,” said Mr. Bright. He also thought it was likely that the giraffe would be a “key target for poachers” because she’s so unusual. Reticulated giraffes are already struggling. In 2018, they were officially listed as “threatened”. Thirty-five years ago, there were 36,000 reticulated giraffes. Now, only about 16,000 reticulated giraffes remain. Brights Zoo is hoping to use the young spotless giraffe to raise awareness of giraffe protection and donate money for groups like Save Giraffes Now and the Giraffe Conservation Foundation. So far, hundreds of thousands of names have come up. All of the names are in Swahili, a language spoken in parts of Africa. The zoo will announce the winning name on September 4. 4. What can we learn from the first two paragraphs? A. Giraffes are famous for long necks. B. Giraffes have the same spot patterns. C. The baby giraffe gets a special name. D. Brights Zoo welcomes a special baby giraffe. 5. What does David Bright say about the new-born giraffe? A. It’s easy to hide in the wild. B. It will generate spots in the future. C. It may spend its whole life in the zoo. D. It’s the first spotless giraffe in the world. 6. Why did the zoo call on the public to name the new-born giraffe? A. To protect the spotless giraffe. B. To call public attention to the zoo. C. To show the giraffes are going extinct. D. To raise fund for the giraffe protection groups. 7. What is the attitude of the public to the “naming activity”? A. Skeptical. B. Favorable. C. Indifferent. D. Cautious. 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. D 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道，主要讲的是位于田纳西州Limestone的Brights Zoo迎来了一只非常特别的网纹长颈鹿宝宝——它出生时非常健康，但身上没有任何斑点。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Brights Zoo in Limestone, Tennessee is celebrating the birth of a very unusual baby reticulated giraffe (网纹长颈鹿). Born perfectly healthy, it just doesn’t have any spots. (位于田纳西州Limestone的Brights Zoo正在庆祝一只非常特别的网纹长颈鹿宝宝的诞生。这只宝宝出生时非常健康，只是身上没有任何斑点。)”可知，Brights Zoo迎来了一只特别的长颈鹿宝宝。故选D。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Mr. Bright says that the new giraffe might not have survived if she had been born in the wild. “Being solid colored, she may not be able to hide quite as well,” said Mr. Bright. (Mr. Bright说，“如果这只新长颈鹿出生在野外，她可能活不下来。由于她是纯色的，她可能无法隐藏得很好，”Mr. Bright说。)”可知，新生的长颈鹿可能一生都要在动物园里度过。故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Brights Zoo is hoping to use the young spotless giraffe to raise awareness of giraffe protection and donate money for groups like Save Giraffes Now and the Giraffe Conservation Foundation. (Brights Zoo希望用这只一尘不染的小长颈鹿来提高人们保护长颈鹿的意识，并为“Save Giraffes Now”和“Giraffe Conservation Foundation”等组织捐款。)”可知，动物园号召公众为这只新生的长颈鹿命名的目的是为长颈鹿保护组织筹集资金。故选D。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“So far, hundreds of thousands of names have come up. (到目前为止，已经出现了数十万个名字。)”可知，有很多很多人给长颈鹿命名，说明公众对“命名活动”的态度是赞成的。故选B。 C A newly-developed Android phone app is able to remotely estimate pressure in a person’s arteries (动脉) as there heart squeezes, providing potentially life-saving details on individual health without the need for specialized equipment. Rather than having to take a trip to the doctor or use a dedicated device, individuals might one day be able to make use of the phone in their pocket, making the innovation particularly important in underserved populations where access to medical care is limited. Developed by researchers from the University of Pittsburgh, the app works by taking a variety of readings from the accelerometer, camera, and touch sensors built into modern smartphones. What makes the app smart is the way it gets users to change the position of their hands to change blood flow, and apply a number of instructed touches to the phone screen to get the right pulse pressure readings.“Because of gravity, there’s a pressure change in your thumb when you raise your hands up above your heart, and using the phone’s accelerometer, you’re able to convert that into the relative change in pressure,” says biomedical engineer Vishaal Dhamotharan from the University of Pittsburgh. In tests on 24 people and cross-referencing with a larger database, the app method detected pulse pressure to a reasonably accurate level, within around 8 mm HG. As development continues, the app accuracy level will most likely improve on that even further. The researchers admit they’ll need to work on “changing the mindset” around using pulse pressure as a blood pressure indicator — but it’s the best solution we’ve seen yet for taking this crucial reading using a normal smartphone. “Development of a portable blood pressure measurement device that does not require any external calibration (外部校准) is unrealistic — such a device currently does not exist,” says biomedical engineer Sanjeev Shroff, from the University of Pittsburgh. “The research work reported in this publication is an important step in the right direction.” 8. Why is the newly-developed phone app particularly important? A. It’s much easier to access. B. It’s money-saving. C. It’s a specialized facility. D. It’s more accurate. 9. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about the app? A. The special function of it. B. The working principle of it. C. The purpose of developing it. D. The inspiration for developing it. 10. What can we infer about the future of the app in smartphones? A. It will have a bright prospect. B. It will come into the market soon. C. It will be built in every smartphone. D. It will replace the traditional equipment. 11. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To test an app. B. To improve an app. C. To advertise an app. D. To introduce an app. 【答案】8. A 9. B 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是一款新开发的安卓手机应用程序能够通过智能手机远程估算个人动脉在心脏挤压时的压力，从而提供可能挽救生命的个人健康信息，而无需使用专用设备。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Rather than having to take a trip to the doctor or use a dedicated device, individuals might one day be able to make use of the phone in their pocket, making the innovation particularly important in underserved populations where access to medical care is limited.(人们也许有一天就能使用口袋里的手机，而不必跑一趟去看医生或使用专用设备，这使得这项创新在医疗服务匮乏、医疗服务有限的人群中尤为重要)”可知，新开发的手机应用程序特别重要是因为它更容易使用，故选A。 【9题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“Developed by researchers from the University of Pittsburgh, the app works by taking a variety of readings from the accelerometer, camera, and touch sensors built into modern smartphones. What makes the app smart is the way it gets users to change the position of their hands to change blood flow, and apply a number of instructed touches to the phone screen to get the right pulse pressure readings.(这款应用由Pittsburgh大学的研究人员开发，通过从现代智能手机内置的加速度计、摄像头和触摸传感器中获取各种读数来工作。这款应用的智能之处在于，它可以让用户改变双手的位置来改变血液流动，并在手机屏幕上进行一些指示触摸，以获得正确的脉搏压力读数)”可知，第三段主要讲的是这款应用程序的工作原理。故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The researchers admit they’ll need to work on “changing the mindset” around using pulse pressure as a blood pressure indicator — but it’s the best solution we’ve seen yet for taking this crucial reading using a normal smartphone. (研究人员承认，他们需要努力“改变思维模式”，将脉压作为血压指标，但这是我们所见过的使用普通智能手机测量这一关键读数的最佳解决方案)”及“The research work reported in this publication is an important step in the right direction.(这份报告中的研究工作是朝着正确方向迈出的重要一步)”可知，这款应用程序有光明的前景。故选A。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“A newly-developed Android phone app is able to remotely estimate pressure in a person’s arteries (动脉) as there heart squeezes, providing potentially life-saving details on individual health without the need for specialized equipment.(一款新开发的安卓手机应用程序可以在心脏挤压时远程估计一个人的动脉压力，在不需要专门设备的情况下，提供可能挽救生命的个人健康细节)”可知，本文主要讲的是一款新开发的安卓手机应用程序，它能够通过智能手机远程估算个人动脉在心脏挤压时的压力，从而提供可能挽救生命的个人健康信息，而无需使用专用设备，因此本文作者写这篇文章的目的是介绍一个应用程序。故选D。 D Imagine an artificial intelligence model that can watch and understand moving images like you and me. Now, scientists have made this a reality by creating MovieNet: an innovative AI that processes videos much like how our brains interpret real-life scenes. This brain-inspired AI model can perceive moving scenes by simulating how neurons (神经元) make real-time sense of the world. While conventional AI excels at still image recognition, MovieNet is designed to understand complex, dynamic scenes, allowing it to recognize small changes over time. To create MovieNet, Hollis Cline, senior author of the study, examined how animals’ brains process real-world scenes. Specifically, he studied how tadpoles’ (蝌蚪的) neurons respond to moving stimuli. Tadpoles’ neurons process these visual inputs like solving puzzle pieces: each piece alone may not make sense, but together they form a complete image in motion. Different neurons process various “puzzle pieces” of a real-life moving image, which the brain then combines to form a continuous scene. Using this understanding, the researchers trained MovieNet to process video clips by identifying small visual signals, allowing it to distinguish between small changes in scenes. In testing, MovieNet achieved 82.3% accuracy, outperforming trained human observers by 18% and doing much better than existing AI models. Beyond its higher accuracy, MovieNet is more environment-friendly. Conventional AI requires vast amounts of data and energy, but MovieNet compresses (压缩) data like a zipped file, reducing environmental impact. “We’ve also made AI far less demanding,” says Cline. MovieNet could also transform medicine. It might help detect early signs of diseases by tracking small movement changes that are difficult for human eyes to detect. Looking ahead, the team plans to improve MovieNet’s ability to adapt to different environments and enhance its potential applications. “By designing models that think like living organisms (有机体), we can achieve efficiency levels that aren't possible with traditional AI,” says Cline, “Biology is a gold mine.” 12. What does the underlined word “simulating” mean in paragraph 2? A. Copying. B. Inspiring. C. Demonstrating. D. Recognizing. 13. MovieNet is trained ________. A. to integrate dynamic images B. to increase visual inputs C. to feed on information pieces D. to look into tadpoles’ neurons 14. According to paragraph 5, what is an advantage of MovieNet? A. Its powerful data storage. B. Its low energy consumption. C. Its control of medical diseases. D. Its improvement on drug effects. 15. What can be concluded from Cline’s words in the last paragraph? A. Biology brings us financial profits. B. Living organisms can outperform AI. C. AI can assist in biological development. D. Drawing inspiration from biology is promising. 【答案】12. A 13. A 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了科学家开发出的一种新型的人工智能模型——MovieNet，并详细说明其原理、优势以及潜在应用。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线单词的上文“This brain-inspired AI model(这个受大脑启发的人工智能模型)”和下文的内容“how neurons (神经元) make real-time sense of the world(神经元是如何实时感知世界的)”可知，既然这种人工智能模型是受人类大脑启发的，那么它肯定是可以模仿神经元对世界的感知。因此，划线单词simulating的意为“模仿”或“复制”，与动词copying意义一致。故选A项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的句子“Tadpoles’ neurons process these visual inputs like solving puzzle pieces: each piece alone may not make sense, but together they form a complete image in motion. Different neurons process various “puzzle pieces” of a real-life moving image, which the brain then combines to form a continuous scene.(蝌蚪的神经元处理这些视觉输入就像解决拼图一样：每一块单独可能都没有意义，但它们一起形成了一个完整的运动图像。不同的神经元处理现实生活中运动图像的各种“拼图”，然后大脑将它们组合成一个连续的场景。)”和第四段的句子“Using this understanding, the researchers trained MovieNet to process video clips by identifying small visual signals, allowing it to distinguish between small changes in scenes.(利用这种理解，研究人员训练MovieNet通过识别小的视觉信号来处理视频片段，使其能够区分场景中的小变化。)”可知，MovieNet是通过整合动态图像来识别场景中的微小变化的。故选A项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段的句子“Conventional AI requires vast amounts of data and energy, but MovieNet compresses data like a zipped file, reducing environmental impact.(传统的人工智能需要大量的数据和能源，但MovieNet像压缩文件一样压缩数据，减少了对环境的影响。)”可知，MovieNet通过压缩数据减少了对环境的影响，即其能耗较低。故选B项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段的句子“By designing models that think like living organisms, we can achieve efficiency levels that aren’t possible with traditional AI,” says Cline, “Biology is a gold mine.(通过设计像生物体一样思考的模型，我们可以达到传统人工智能无法达到的效率水平，”克莱恩说，“生物学是一座金矿。)”可知，Cline认为通过模仿生物体的思维方式设计模型，可以达到传统AI无法实现的效率水平，并称生物学为“金矿”。因此，可以推断出从生物学中汲取灵感是很有前景的。故选D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。 How to Determine the Best Time to Exercise Any time of the day you can commit to exercising is a good time for getting active. ____16____ Consider your lifestyle and exercise goals to help find the right time for you.

My mother had purchased a bar of it, and somehow, I couldn’t get it out of my mind. I was assisting my father on the farm. Just then, an idea struck me. I could cut off a chunk (厚块) of the chocolate. My mother would surely notice it, but before she discovered who had done it, I could admit that I had taken it. Probably, I might not even receive a spanking (打屁股). I waited until my mother went out to feed the chickens. Then, I told my father that I would go inside for some water. I took down the bar and was about to cut it when I heard my mother coming back. I reacted swiftly, slipping the chocolate into my pocket and running out. Before returning to help my father, I went to the barn and hid the chocolate there. On my way out, I calmed down a bit and could think more clearly. I told myself that I hadn’t actually stolen the entire bar of chocolate because I only intended to take a small piece. If I put the whole bar back, I wouldn’t have done anything wrong. I almost decided to put it all back. But just thinking about that chocolate made my tongue almost taste its smooth bitterness. I started thinking that if I sliced about half an inch off the end with a sharp knife, my mother might never notice it. Suddenly, I remembered what my father had said once — some of the family money was mine because I had helped earn it. Why wouldn’t it be okay to think that the bar of chocolate had been bought with my own money? That seemed to fix everything. 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。 That night I couldn’t sleep, wondering how I could make it secretly. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ By moonlight, just as I was about to cut it, my father said. “Son!” ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Paragraph 1: That night I couldn’t sleep, wondering how I could make it secretly. Scared as I was, I still got up and slipped out into the yard secretly with a knife in my pocket. Then I worked up the courage to move into the barn and couldn’t wait to take out the chocolate immediately, with excitement in my eyes and nervousness. By the light of the moon, I cautiously opened the packing paper, the delicious smell entirely attracted me in it without noticing my father entering behind. Paragraph 2: By moonlight, just as I was about to cut it, my father said, “Son!” Afraid to be beaten out of breath, I grabbed up the bar of chocolate and hid it in my pocket before I turned around. I stood there motionlessly, head down in shame, wondering a spanking was probably unavoidable. Great to my surprise, my father came up to me, tapped my shoulder and said, “You could have had it if you’d asked for it.” A strong sense of guilt taking hold of me, I looked up in his eyes and nodded with agreement.

El Calafate, Argentina Every day, groups of buses depart El Calafate for the Perito Moreno glacier — an accessible icy sight, and one of the world’s few advancing glaciers. A series of boardwalks lead to various viewpoints that allow you to be amazed at this shining, blue-white wall of ice. Futaleufú, Chile Imagine it: you and the rest of the rafting crew are waiting for the signal from the rafting guide to row like your life depends on it. Huge river waves are hitting the boat and white-water spray showers you head to foot. You wipe the water out of your eyes and enjoy the sunshine when people in the Northern Hemisphere suffer from the freezing cold, and there are numerous guesthouses where you can base yourself. Cueva de las Manos, Argentina In a hidden canyon, reachable by tour or your own wheels, a boardwalk leads you past a vast overhanging rock face, decorated with ancient rock art. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is one of the most famous rock art sites in South America, with over 800 outlines of human hands and feet of wildlife. Punta Tombo, Argentina You smell the penguins before you see them. The presence of nearly a million Magellanic penguins — some hiding underground, some going fishing in the sea, others standing around — is a powerful effect on your senses. The long, narrow peninsula also attracts gulls, flightless steamer ducks, and black oystercatchers. 1. What can you do in El Calafate, Argentina? A. Carve icy walls. B. Admire glaciers. C. Enjoy bus tours. D. Decorate boardwalks. 2. In which month can you take on the white-water rafting trips? A. January. B. May. C. August. D. October. 3.

Cueva de las Manos, Argentina B Brights Zoo in Limestone Tennessee is celebrating the birth of a very unusual baby reticulated giraffe (网纹长颈鹿). Born perfectly healthy, it just doesn’t have any spots. The zoo is asking for help from the public to name the unique animal. Tall, long-necked giraffes are famous for their spots. The spots are believed to help the animals hide from predators. Just like no two humans have the same fingerprints, each giraffe has its own special pattern of spots. David Bright, who runs the zoo, told Newsweek, “This is beyond rare. The last time this happened was 1972 in Japan.” Currently, the young giraffe is believed to be the only spotless giraffe in the world. A giraffe’s pattern of spots is created when the animal is still growing inside its mother, which means that this giraffe will never have spots. Mr. Bright says that the new giraffe might not have survived if she had been born in the wild. “Being solid colored, she may not be able to hide quite as well,” said Mr. Bright. He also thought it was likely that the giraffe would be a “key target for poachers” because she’s so unusual. Reticulated giraffes are already struggling. In 2018, they were officially listed as “threatened”. Thirty-five years ago, there were 36,000 reticulated giraffes. Now, only about 16,000 reticulated giraffes remain. Brights Zoo is hoping to use the young spotless giraffe to raise awareness of giraffe protection and donate money for groups like Save Giraffes Now and the Giraffe Conservation Foundation. So far, hundreds of thousands of names have come up. All of the names are in Swahili, a language spoken in parts of Africa. The zoo will announce the winning name on September 4. 4. What can we learn from the first two paragraphs? A. Giraffes are famous for long necks. B. Giraffes have the same spot patterns. C. The baby giraffe gets a special name. D. Brights Zoo welcomes a special baby giraffe. 5. What does David Bright say about the new-born giraffe? A. It’s easy to hide in the wild. B. It will generate spots in the future. C. It may spend its whole life in the zoo. D. It’s the first spotless giraffe in the world. 6. Why did the zoo call on the public to name the new-born giraffe? A. To protect the spotless giraffe. B. To call public attention to the zoo. C. To show the giraffes are going extinct. D. To raise fund for the giraffe protection groups. 7. What is the attitude of the public to the “naming activity”? A. Skeptical. B. Favorable. C. Indifferent. D. Cautious. C A newly-developed Android phone app is able to remotely estimate pressure in a person’s arteries (动脉) as there heart squeezes, providing potentially life-saving details on individual health without the need for specialized equipment. Rather than having to take a trip to the doctor or use a dedicated device, individuals might one day be able to make use of the phone in their pocket, making the innovation particularly important in underserved populations where access to medical care is limited. Developed by researchers from the University of Pittsburgh, the app works by taking a variety of readings from the accelerometer, camera, and touch sensors built into modern smartphones. What makes the app smart is the way it gets users to change the position of their hands to change blood flow, and apply a number of instructed touches to the phone screen to get the right pulse pressure readings.“Because of gravity, there’s a pressure change in your thumb when you raise your hands up above your heart, and using the phone’s accelerometer, you’re able to convert that into the relative change in pressure,” says biomedical engineer Vishaal Dhamotharan from the University of Pittsburgh. In tests on 24 people and cross-referencing with a larger database, the app method detected pulse pressure to a reasonably accurate level, within around 8 mm HG. As development continues, the app accuracy level will most likely improve on that even further. The researchers admit they’ll need to work on “changing the mindset” around using pulse pressure as a blood pressure indicator — but it’s the best solution we’ve seen yet for taking this crucial reading using a normal smartphone. “Development of a portable blood pressure measurement device that does not require any external calibration (外部校准) is unrealistic — such a device currently does not exist,” says biomedical engineer Sanjeev Shroff, from the University of Pittsburgh. “The research work reported in this publication is an important step in the right direction.” 8. Why is the newly-developed phone app particularly important? A. It’s much easier to access. B. It’s money-saving. C. It’s a specialized facility. D. It’s more accurate. 9. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about the app? A. The special function of it. B. The working principle of it. C. The purpose of developing it. D. The inspiration for developing it. 10. What can we infer about the future of the app in smartphones? A. It will have a bright prospect. B. It will come into the market soon. C. It will be built in every smartphone. D. It will replace the traditional equipment. 11. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To test an app. B. To improve an app. C. To advertise an app. D. To introduce an app. D Imagine an artificial intelligence model that can watch and understand moving images like you and me. Now, scientists have made this a reality by creating MovieNet: an innovative AI that processes videos much like how our brains interpret real-life scenes. This brain-inspired AI model can perceive moving scenes by simulating how neurons (神经元) make real-time sense of the world. While conventional AI excels at still image recognition, MovieNet is designed to understand complex, dynamic scenes, allowing it to recognize small changes over time. To create MovieNet, Hollis Cline, senior author of the study, examined how animals’ brains process real-world scenes. Specifically, he studied how tadpoles’ (蝌蚪) neurons respond to moving stimuli. Tadpoles’ neurons process these visual inputs like solving puzzle pieces: each piece alone may not make sense, but together they form a complete image in motion. Different neurons process various “puzzle pieces” of a real-life moving image, which the brain then combines to form a continuous scene. Using this understanding, the researchers trained MovieNet to process video clips by identifying small visual signals, allowing it to distinguish between small changes in scenes. In testing, MovieNet achieved 82.3% accuracy, outperforming trained human observers by 18% and doing much better than existing AI models. Beyond its higher accuracy, MovieNet is more environment-friendly. Conventional AI requires vast amounts of data and energy, but MovieNet compresses (压缩) data like a zipped file, reducing environmental impact. “We’ve also made AI far less demanding,” says Cline. MovieNet could also transform medicine. It might help detect early signs of diseases by tracking small movement changes that are difficult for human eyes to detect. Looking ahead, the team plans to improve MovieNet’s ability to adapt to different environments and enhance its potential applications. “By designing models that think like living organisms (有机体), we can achieve efficiency levels that aren't possible with traditional AI,” says Cline, “Biology is a gold mine.” 12. What does the underlined word “simulating” mean in paragraph 2? A. Copying. B. Inspiring. C. Demonstrating. D. Recognizing. 13. MovieNet is trained ________. A. to integrate dynamic images B. to increase visual inputs C. to feed on information pieces D. to look into tadpoles’ neurons 14. According to paragraph 5, what is an advantage of MovieNet? A. Its powerful data storage. B. Its low energy consumption. C. Its control of medical diseases. D. Its improvement on drug effects. 15. What can be concluded from Cline’s words in the last paragraph? A. Biology brings us financial profits. B. Living organisms can outperform AI. C. AI can assist in biological development. D. Drawing inspiration from biology is promising. 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 Determine the Best Time to Exercise Any time of the day you can commit to exercising is a good time for getting active. ____16____ Consider your lifestyle and exercise goals to help find the right time for you.

My mother had purchased a bar of it, and somehow, I couldn’t get it out of my mind. I was assisting my father on the farm. Just then, an idea struck me. I could cut off a chunk (厚块) of the chocolate. My mother would surely notice it, but before she discovered who had done it, I could admit that I had taken it. Probably, I might not even receive a spanking (打屁股). I waited until my mother went out to feed the chickens. Then, I told my father that I would go inside for some water. I took down the bar and was about to cut it when I heard my mother coming back. I reacted swiftly, slipping the chocolate into my pocket and running out. Before returning to help my father, I went to the barn and hid the chocolate there. On my way out, I calmed down a bit and could think more clearly. I told myself that I hadn’t actually stolen the entire bar of chocolate because I only intended to take a small piece. If I put the whole bar back, I wouldn’t have done anything wrong. I almost decided to put it all back. But just thinking about that chocolate made my tongue almost taste its smooth bitterness. I started thinking that if I sliced about half an inch off the end with a sharp knife, my mother might never notice it. Suddenly, I remembered what my father had said once — some of the family money was mine because I had helped earn it. Why wouldn’t it be okay to think that the bar of chocolate had been bought with my own money? That seemed to fix everything. 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。 That night I couldn’t sleep, wondering how I could make it secretly. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ By moonlight, just as I was about to cut it, my father said. “Son!” ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
