D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍面向13至17岁青少年的免费救生员培训项目详情。 【1题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“This free summer program offers local youth aged 13 — 17 training in ocean awareness, beach safety, and basic lifeguarding skills Participants will learn ocean swimming, first aid, and rescue skills from National Park Service (NPS) lifeguards and interact with emergency services personnel. (这项免费暑期项目为当地13至17岁青少年提供海洋认知、海滩安全及基础救生技能培训。学员将跟随美国国家公园管理局专业救生员学习海上游泳、急救与救援技能，并与应急服务人员展开互动交流)”可知，全文围绕“免费暑期救生员培训项目”展开，介绍其内容、申请流程、时间安排等，由此推断，文章的主要目的是介绍一个救生员培训项目。故选B。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据APPLICATION & TRYOUTS部分中“ All junior lifeguards must pass a physical fitness screening on June 24th , consisting of a 600-yard ocean swim followed immediately by a one-mile beach run. Attendance to the tryout is compulsory. (所有预备救生员必须通过6月24日的体能筛选测试，内容包括连续完成600码海上游泳及随后1英里沙滩跑，试训出席为强制要求)”可知，体能测试是必须参加的环节。故选C。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据IMPORTANT DATES & CLASS TIMES部分“Ages 15 — 17 Class Times: 10:00 a.m. — 3:00 p.m. (15至17岁学员课程时间：上午10:00至下午3:00)”及“Class Dates: Mondays and Tuesdays (课程日期：每周一、周二)”可知，16岁的孩子在这个项目中上课的时间是星期一和星期二的上午10:00 至下午3:00。故选D。 B Many people assume that siblings naturally grow up to be close, but for me, that wasn’t the case. When I was seven, I moved from London to Florida with my two sisters, while my four brothers stayed behind. We didn’t reunite until I was seventeen. The long separation and lack of communication caused our bond to fade completely. This emotional distance still affects me. I feel grief when I see other families enjoying sibling vacations or holiday jokes. I’ve come to understand that our broken relationships were caused by family changes, poor communication, and favoritism (偏袒) — experiences that are common for many. Therapist (治疗专家) Phebe Brako-Owusu explains that sudden family shifts without explanation or emotional support can seriously hurt children. Favoritism, too, can damage sibling trust and create pressure, even for the so-called “favorite” child. Understanding the causes helped, but healing didn’t begin until I started therapy. Therapy helped me recognize how not having my feelings understood led to bitterness and silence. It also helped me take responsibility for my role in these conflicts and show empathy toward my siblings’ experiences. Experts suggest doing personal work before trying to reconnect with siblings, and if you do choose to talk, use “I” statements and be clear about your purpose — whether it’s trying to make peace or setting boundaries. As a parent now, I reflect on how parents can prevent such issues. Brako-Owusu recommends encouraging open communication, avoiding favoritism, and creating space for siblings to bond. Even if a relationship can’t be repaired now, it doesn’t mean it never will. I hold on to hope that someday my siblings and I may reconnect. 4. What can be inferred about the author from the first paragraph? A. She remained close to her brothers through letters. B. She was excited to live in the U. S. with her sisters. C. She never wanted to be taken away from hometown. D. She was emotionally affected by the move at age seven. 5. Which of the following would Brako-Owusu most likely disapprove of? A. Sharing decision-making. B. Not explaining family change. C Seeking for psychological help. D. Not favoring a certain child. 6. What is advised before trying to reconnect with siblings, according to experts? A. Going through necessary self-reflection. B. Focusing on building new family traditions. C. Waiting for siblings to initiate the conversation. D. Breaking down boundaries without conditions. 7. What is the author’s attitude towards repairing her relationship with her siblings? A. Doubtful. B. Optimistic. C. Indifferent. D. Reserved. 【答案】4. D 5. B 6. A 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章通过作者自身的经历探讨了兄弟姐妹关系疏远的原因，并提出了修复这种关系的建议和希望。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“When I was seven, I moved from London to Florida with my two sisters, while my four brothers stayed behind. We didn’t reunite until I was seventeen. The long separation and lack of communication caused our bond to fade completely.(我七岁的时候，和两个姐妹从伦敦搬到了佛罗里达，而我的四个兄弟留在了伦敦。我们直到17岁才团聚。长时间的分离和缺乏沟通使我们的关系完全淡化了)”可知，作者七岁时搬家，与兄弟分离十年，亲情关系淡化，由此可推知，作者在七岁时受到搬家的影响，在情感上受到了影响。故选D项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Therapist (治疗专家) Phebe Brako-Owusu explains that sudden family shifts without explanation or emotional support can seriously hurt children.(治疗专家Phebe Brako-Owusu解释说，突然的家庭变化如果没有解释或情感支持，会严重伤害孩子)”可推知，Brako-Owusu认为突然的家庭变化而没有解释会伤害孩子，所以她最可能不赞成不解释家庭变化。故选B项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Experts suggest doing personal work before trying to reconnect with siblings, and if you do choose to talk, use “I” statements and be clear about your purpose — whether it’s trying to make peace or setting boundaries.(专家建议，在尝试与兄弟姐妹修复关系前先做好自我调整。如果决定沟通，请多用“我”开头的表达方式，并明确自己的目的——无论是为了和解还是设立界限)”可知，专家建议，在试图与兄弟姐妹重新联系之前要先做好自我调整，要明确自己的目的，即先进行必要的自我反省。故选A项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Even if a relationship can’t be repaired now, it doesn’t mean it never will. I hold on to hope that someday my siblings and I may reconnect.(即使现在一段关系无法修复，也不意味着永远不会。我抱着希望，希望有一天我和我的兄弟姐妹能重新联系上)”可知，作者对修复与兄弟姐妹的关系持乐观态度。故选B项。 C Neurodiversity is a term that refers to the natural range of differences in people’s brains. The neurodiversity movement says that the brains that wander from the average within that range shouldn’t be dismissed as insufficient automatically. The term dates back to the autism (自闭症) community in the 1990s, though it’s now applied to all sorts of mental differences. In the past, “autism was widely seen as an individual medical tragedy,” says Robert Chapman, a neurodivergent (脑功能异于常人的) philosopher with autism, “The only hope for autistic people and our families, it was thought, was that we would one day be fixed through behavioral or biomedical intervention.” Neurodiversity challenges that notion. Rather than assuming, for instance, that an autistic person’s struggles to find a job are the result of some internal shortcoming, neurodiversity research considers the existence of external explanations. The barriers to autistic employment emerge from the environment, not only the individual. Studies from 2022 and 2023 have shown that many autistic people are prosocial and skilled at seeing others’ perspectives, while neurodiversity advocates stress it takes two to communicate. Though autistic people may struggle to understand a neurotypical perspective, neurotypical people may struggle to understand an autistic perspective, making it a “double empathy (共情) problem”. This thread of research is already having an impact, helping autism interventions like the “social stories” technique take off. This intervention, which introduces autistic children to common social situations, works by facilitating communication between neurodivergent and neurotypical individuals, with a focus on supporting children, rather than “fixing” them. The technique is consistent with what autistic individuals advocate for themselves. An assessment of the funding of recent autism research revealed the majority was directed toward the biological causes of autism, while the minority was directed toward services, support and education. However, members of the autistic community felt the funding failed to reflect their priorities and wouldn’t have any effect on everyday lives. Crucially, the neurodiversity movement allows neurodivergent people to transform their thinking about themselves. “The dominant medicalized narrative suggested that being autistic made me somehow tragic, broken, and in need of fixing” Chapman writes in his 2023 book. “This was why I found discovering neurodiversity movement, which offered a different analysis, so liberating.” 8. According to neurodiversity movement, the main cause of autistic people’s struggle to function in society is ______. A. an imbalance between research funding and public awareness B. a mismatch between their abilities and their surroundings C. the internal shortcomings autistic people are born with D. the barriers from behavioral or biomedical interventions 9. Which of the following statements about the “social stories” technique is TRUE? A. It is aimed at fixing the autistic children’s behavioral problems. B. It focuses on teaching neurotypical individuals about autistic people. C. It is based on the theory that neurodivergent people can be prosocial. D. It works by putting neurodivergent people into common social situations. 10. What can be inferred about Robert Chapman? A. He believes being autistic is a life-long tragedy. B. He has been fixed through bio-medical intervention. C. He is bothered by the negative narrative surrounding autism. D. He thinks autistic people can be liberated from the movement. 11. The main purpose of the article is to ______. A. introduce the effective treatment methods for autism B. explain the history and significance of the neurodiversity movement C. argue for the necessity of promoting the neurodiversity movement D. criticize the wrong focus of research in understanding autism 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了神经多样性这一概念及其对于自闭症等神经差异群体的意义和影响。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Neurodiversity challenges that notion. Rather than assuming, for instance, that an autistic person’s struggles to find a job are the result of some internal shortcoming, neurodiversity research considers the existence of external explanations. The barriers to autistic employment emerge from the environment, not only the individual.(神经多样性挑战了这种观念。例如，神经多样性研究并没有假设自闭症患者找工作的困难是某种内在缺陷的结果，而是考虑了外部解释的存在。自闭症患者就业的障碍来自环境，而不仅仅是个人)”可知，自闭症患者在社会中挣扎的主要原因是他们的能力和周围环境之间的不匹配。故选B项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“This thread of research is already having an impact, helping autism interventions like the “social stories” technique take off. This intervention, which introduces autistic children to common social situations, works by facilitating communication between neurodivergent and neurotypical individuals, with a focus on supporting children, rather than “fixing” them.(这条研究线索已经产生了影响，帮助像“社交故事”技术这样的自闭症干预措施起飞。这种干预将自闭症儿童引入到常见的社会环境中，通过促进神经发散型和神经正常型个体之间的交流来发挥作用，重点是支持儿童，而不是“修复”他们)”可知，“社交故事”技术通过把神经不同个体置于常见的社交情境中起作用。故选D项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Crucially, the neurodiversity movement allows neurodivergent people to transform their thinking about themselves. “The dominant medicalized narrative suggested that being autistic made me somehow tragic, broken, and in need of fixing” Chapman writes in his 2023 book. “This was why I found discovering neurodiversity movement, which offered a different analysis, so liberating.”(至关重要的是，神经多样性运动允许神经发散的人改变他们对自己的看法。Chapman在他2023年出版的书中写道：“主流的医学叙事认为，自闭症让我在某种程度上变得悲惨、破碎，需要修复。”“这就是我发现神经多样性运动如此令人解放的原因，它提供了一种不同的分析视角。”)”可推知，Robert Chapman被自闭症周围的负面叙述所困扰。故选C项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Neurodiversity is a term that refers to the natural range of differences in people’s brains. The neurodiversity movement says that the brains that wander from the average within that range shouldn’t be dismissed as insufficient automatically.(神经多样性是一个术语，指的是人类大脑的自然差异范围。神经多样性运动表示，在这个范围内偏离平均水平的大脑不应该被自动视为不充分)”可知，这句话引出神经多样性这一话题，接下来文章围绕神经多样性运动展开，解释了其历史、意义和影响。由此推知，文章的主要目的是解释神经多样性运动的历史和意义。故选B项。 D Young people in the United States do not have a strong understanding of the world and their place in it. Two US-based groups the Council on Foreign Relations and the National Geographic Society, conducted an online survey. They wanted to know what young people in American colleges knew about geography, US foreign policy, recent international events, and economics. The survey was given to over 1,200 Americans between the ages of 18 and 26. All of them currently attend, or formerly attended, 2-or 4-year college or university. The average test score, out of 75 total possible answers, was 55 percent. The study identifies a few important problems. For example, only 30 percent knew that the only part of the US government that can declare war is Congress. Only 60 percent of those taking the survey could identify Brazil on a world map. Part of the problem, argue the organizers of the survey, is the Internet. They say it is becoming harder to find high-quality information about world events amongst all the fake news and trivia (琐事), which swamp the web. Forty-three percent of those questioned said they read about the news on the Internet. Another problem is that most college courses do not require students to learn about international issues. If such information is not required, Richard Haass from the Council on Foreign Relations said, then the United States could have leaders like Gary Johnson. He was a presidential candidate who did not know about the Syrian city of Aleppo when a reporter asked him about it. The survey results were not all bad. The young people also demonstrated a good understanding of climate change and renewable energy. And the majority of them said that international issues were becoming more important to them. Haass says these findings suggest the need to find ways to get good information to students, both in school and online. To help, the Council on Foreign Relations is creating a new program called CFR Campus, designed to help build knowledge about global issues. 12. What can we learn about the survey? A. All the participants were recent university graduates. B. It was an online survey conducted by two US universities. C. Its aim was to figure out what the young people knew about America. D. It was given to over 1,200 American people aged from 18 to 26. 13. What’s one reason the survey organizers give for young people’s lack of knowledge? A. Young people are unwilling to travel abroad. B. Young people find it harder to get high-quality information on the Internet. C. The US university system is of poor quality. D. Young people lack interest in knowing more about the world. 14. According to the survey, what topic did the young Americans understand best? A. Environmental matters. B. Geographic information. C. Foreign relations. D. Government organizations. 15. In which column of a newspaper could we find this article? A. Economics. B. Entertainment. C. Politics. D. Education. 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. A 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。主要介绍美国两组机构针对年轻人开展的知识调查结果、问题成因及改善措施。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The survey was given to over 1,200 Americans between the ages of 18 and 26.(这项调查面向1200多名年龄在18至26岁之间的美国人)”可知，该调查的调查对象是1200多名18至26岁的美国人。故选D项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“Part of the problem, argue the organizers of the survey, is the Internet. They say it is becoming harder to find high-quality information about world events amongst all the fake news and trivia which swamp the web.(调查组织者认为，部分问题出在互联网上。他们表示，在充斥网络的假新闻和琐事中，越来越难找到关于国际事件的高质量信息)”可知，调查组织者认为年轻人知识匮乏的原因之一是“在互联网上更难获取高质量信息”。故选B项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第七段中的“The survey results were not all bad. The young people also demonstrated a good understanding of climate change and renewable energy.(调查结果并非全是负面的。年轻人对气候变化和可再生能源也表现出了良好的理解。）”可知，美国年轻人对“环境相关议题”理解最好。故选A项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Haass says these findings suggest the need to find ways to get good information to students, both in school and online (Haass说，这些发现表明需要找到好的信息传递给学生的方式，无论是在学校和网络)”可知，主要介绍美国两组机构针对年轻人开展的知识调查结果、问题成因及改善措施。因此最可能在报纸的“教育”专栏看到该文章，故选D项。 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。 How To Be a Bolder, More Confident Person Want to boost your self-confidence, feel more empowered, and take charge of your life? ___16___ By embracing a bold mindset, you will unlock greater confidence, resilience, and control over your life.

Advanced robot companions are extremely well-suited to tap into our social ___21___ and make us behave as though we’re interacting with something alive. What does it mean to be ___22___ or physically violent toward an artificial agent? People have already started to ___23___. For example, during the mass ___24___ of virtual voice assistants, parents expressed concern that the little speakers in their living rooms were teaching their kids to be rude. Major companies responded by releasing special features that encouraged the use of languages like ‘___25___’ to prevent children from barking commands at the devices. One 2015 research showed that there’s a link between people’s tendencies for sympathy and how they feel toward a robot. But that doesn’t answer the question of whether beating up robots makes people more ___26___. Society has asked similar questions about video games, with some ___27___ results. Just because I play Grand Theft Auto Game doesn’t mean I try to run people over in the car park. Studies show that we behave differently toward embodied robots than characters on a screen, in part because we’re biologically hardwired to ___28___ physical motion. People will ___29___ treat any agent that moves like it’s alive. As robot design gets better, the line between alive and lifelike may continue to ___30___ in our subconscious minds. If so, maybe it would be great for people to take out their aggression and frustration on human-and animal-like robots that mimic pain. ___31___, they aren’t harming a living being. On the other hand, it could be bad if it makes people insensitive to violence in other contexts. Would a child who grows up kicking a robot dog find it ___32___ to kick a real dog? Unfortunately, desensitization (脱敏) remains a difficult thing to study. For now, it seems pretty reasonable to keep robot ___33___ away from little children. But even for the rest of us, maybe it’s just not cool to treat an artificial agent poorly. Yes, it’s much better than ___34___ a living, breathing being, but why do it at all?

Academic involution, characterized by excessive competition, harms students in multiple ways. It leads to long-term stress, sleep disorder, and less creativity, as students focus solely on grades rather than genuine learning. Moreover, it fosters anxiety and weakens social bonds, making school life unhealthy. To address this, students should prioritize balanced growth. Setting realistic goals and managing time efficiently can reduce pressure. Schools should emphasize whole-person education, encouraging extracurricular activities and collaboration over competition. Parents and teachers can also support mental well-being, valuing progress over perfection. Together, we can transform competition into motivation for meaningful development. 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达属于应用文。要求考生以“How to Deal with Academic Involution? ”为题给校刊英文专栏撰稿，分析“内卷”的负面影响并提出解决方法。 【详解】1.词汇积累 过度的：excessive → extreme 导致：lead to → result in 优先考虑：prioritize → give priority to 转变：transform → convert 2.句式拓展 简单句变复合句 原句：Academic involution, characterized by excessive competition, harms students in multiple ways. 拓展句：Academic involution, which is characterized by excessive competition, harms students in multiple ways. 【点睛】[高分句型1] It leads to long-term stress, sleep disorder, and less creativity, as students focus solely on grades rather than genuine learning.

She was a big dog on the Perkinses’ family farm, a woolly creature with floppy ears and paws like bedroom slippers. She protected the ducks and chickens from being eaten by foxes and raccoons (浣熊) . She guarded the children as well, watching over them as closely as she did the chickens and ducks. In winter the dog ran alongside the children as they sledded (滑雪橇) down snowy hills. In summer she swam with them in a nearby river. Bear belonged to a breed (品种) that had long been used by Atlantic fishermen to help with their work, and it had a keen instinct for water rescue. When the children were in the river, the dog would swim in circles around them, barking when she felt they went out too far. She was the perfect farm dog — companion, guardian, protector. The dog’s favorite among the three children was three-year-old little Mike. They often curled up together. Sometimes Bear would doze while Mike pretended to read to her. Often both were sound asleep, a tangle of dark fur, blond hair, small hands and huge paws. At bedtime, Mike saved his last hug for Bear, his “best friend”. On a cold winter day, when their parents went out to send a parcel, eight-year-old Martha, seven-year-old Sara and Mike, went to slide on the frozen pond of their farm. Shouting happily, they slid back and forth, their boots gliding easily across the ice. They laughed as they watched Bear’s attempts to stop suddenly, which would instead send her skidding beyond them. Then, tired, the three sat down on the ice, with Bear beside them. Suddenly the ice gave way under their combined weight. As Bear jumped for shore, the three children fell into the freezing cold water. Screaming, Martha and Sarah struggled to find footing on rocks underwater. Branches from a tree nearby provided handholds, and using every bit of their strength, the two girls pulled themselves to shore. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卷的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: Looking back, they saw little Mike holding on to a broken chunk (大块) of ice, unable to crawl onto it. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Seeing that, Bear let out a series of woofs and jumped into the water, heading straight for Mike. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Looking back, they saw little Mike holding on to a broken chunk of ice, unable to crawl onto it. Panic slammed into Martha and Sara like a hammer; their breaths came in harsh clouds as the wind howled across the pond. “Mike, keep your arms up — don’t let go!” Martha shouted, her voice cracking with fear. The boy’s lips were turning a frightening shade of blue, and water sloshed over his boots each time the ice tilted. The sisters clung to a low branch, but the thought of re-entering the frigid hole was unbearable. With no adults in sight and daylight fading, the brittle silence of the farm suddenly felt enormous. Seeing that, Bear let out a series of woofs and jumped into the water, heading straight for Mike. Powerful strokes sliced the surface as spray flew from her coat. When she reached him, she circled once, nudging his armpit with her nose until Mike’s arms slid over her broad shoulders. Instinct took over. Gripping his jacket between her teeth, she turned toward shore and began towing her passenger. Martha and Sara lay flat on the ice, stretching a long branch. The moment Bear’s paws scraped frozen ground, the girls hauled the boy and the dog together, collapsing in a trembling heap of relief. 【解析】 【导语】本文以小狗Bear为线索展开，讲述了它保护着鸭子、鸡和孩子们。在一个寒冷冬日，三个孩子在农场池塘滑冰时冰面破裂，Martha和Sara上岸后发现Mike被困在冰上。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“回头看，他们看到小Mike紧紧抓住一块破碎的冰，无法爬上去。”可知，第一段可描写Martha和Sara的惊慌失措以及Mike的危险处境，同时强调当时的寒冷和无助。 ②由第二段首句内容“看到这一幕，Bear发出一连串的叫声，跳进水里，径直向Mike游去。”可知，第二段可描写Bear如何成功营救Mike，以及Martha和Sara在岸边的协助，最后大家都松了一口气。 2. 续写线索：冰面破裂——Mike被困——Bear营救——成功上岸 3. 词汇激活： 行为类 ①大喊：shout/yell ②紧紧抓住：cling to/grasp/hold fast to ③到达：reach/get to 情绪类 ①惊慌：panic/fright/terror ②恐惧：fear/terror/alarm 【点睛】【高分句型1】Panic slammed into Martha and Sara like a hammer; their breaths came in harsh clouds as the wind howled across the pond.

When I was seven, I moved from London to Florida with my two sisters, while my four brothers stayed behind. We didn’t reunite until I was seventeen. The long separation and lack of communication caused our bond to fade completely. This emotional distance still affects me. I feel grief when I see other families enjoying sibling vacations or holiday jokes. I’ve come to understand that our broken relationships were caused by family changes, poor communication, and favoritism (偏袒) — experiences that are common for many. Therapist (治疗专家) Phebe Brako-Owusu explains that sudden family shifts without explanation or emotional support can seriously hurt children. Favoritism, too, can damage sibling trust and create pressure, even for the so-called “favorite” child. Understanding the causes helped but healing didn’t begin until I started therapy. Therapy helped me recognize how not having my feelings understood led to bitterness and silence. It also helped me take responsibility for my role in these conflicts and show empathy toward my siblings’ experiences. Experts suggest doing personal work before trying to reconnect with siblings, and if you do choose to talk, use “I” statements and be clear about your purpose — whether it’s trying to make peace or setting boundaries. As a parent now, I reflect on how parents can prevent such issues. Brako-Owusu recommends encouraging open communication, avoiding favoritism, and creating space for siblings to bond. Even if a relationship can’t be repaired now, it doesn’t mean it never will. I hold on to hope that someday my siblings and I may reconnect. 4. What can be inferred about the author from the first paragraph? A. She remained close to her brothers through letters. B. She was excited to live in the U. S. with her sisters. C. She never wanted to be taken away from hometown. D. She was emotionally affected by the move at age seven. 5. Which of the following would Brako-Owusu most likely disapprove of? A. Sharing decision-making. B. Not explaining family change. C. Seeking for psychological help. D. Not favoring a certain child. 6. What is advised before trying to reconnect with siblings, according to experts? A. Going through necessary self-reflection. B. Focusing on building new family traditions. C. Waiting for siblings to initiate the conversation. D. Breaking down boundaries without conditions. 7. What is the author’s attitude towards repairing her relationship with her siblings? A. Doubtful. B. Optimistic. C. Indifferent. D. Reserved. C Neurodiversity is a term that refers to the natural range of differences in people’s brains. The neurodiversity movement says that the brains that wander from the average within that range shouldn’t be dismissed as insufficient automatically. The term dates back to the autism (自闭症) community in the 1990s, though it’s now applied to all sorts of mental differences. In the past, “autism was widely seen as an individual medical tragedy,” says Robert Chapman, a neurodivergent (脑功能异于常人的) philosopher with autism, “The only hope for autistic people and our families, it was thought, was that we would one day be fixed through behavioral or biomedical intervention.” Neurodiversity challenges that notion. Rather than assuming, for instance, that an autistic person’s struggles to find a job are the result of some internal shortcoming, neurodiversity research considers the existence of external explanations. The barriers to autistic employment emerge from the environment, not only the individual. Studies from 2022 and 2023 have shown that many autistic people are prosocial and skilled at seeing others’ perspectives, while neurodiversity advocates stress it takes two to communicate. Though autistic people may struggle to understand a neurotypical perspective, neurotypical people may struggle to understand an autistic perspective, making it a “double empathy (共情) problem”. This thread of research is already having an impact, helping autism interventions like the “social stories” technique take off. This intervention, which introduces autistic children to common social situations, works by facilitating communication between neurodivergent and neurotypical individuals, with a focus on supporting children, rather than “fixing” them. The technique is consistent with what autistic individuals advocate for themselves. An assessment of the funding of recent autism research revealed the majority was directed toward the biological causes of autism, while the minority was directed toward services, support and education. However, members of the autistic community felt the funding failed to reflect their priorities and wouldn’t have any effect on everyday lives. Crucially, the neurodiversity movement allows neurodivergent people to transform their thinking about themselves. “The dominant medicalized narrative suggested that being autistic made me somehow tragic, broken, and in need of fixing” Chapman writes in his 2023 book. “This was why I found discovering neurodiversity movement, which offered a different analysis, so liberating.” 8. According to neurodiversity movement, the main cause of autistic people’s struggle to function in society is ______. A. an imbalance between research funding and public awareness B. a mismatch between their abilities and their surroundings C. the internal shortcomings autistic people are born with D. the barriers from behavioral or biomedical interventions 9. Which of the following statements about the “social stories” technique is TRUE? A. It is aimed at fixing the autistic children’s behavioral problems. B. It focuses on teaching neurotypical individuals about autistic people. C. It is based on the theory that neurodivergent people can be prosocial. D. It works by putting neurodivergent people into common social situations. 10. What can be inferred about Robert Chapman? A. He believes being autistic is a life-long tragedy. B.

Two US-based groups, the Council on Foreign Relations and the National Geographic Society, conducted an online survey. They wanted to know what young people in American colleges knew about geography, US foreign policy, recent international events, and economics. The survey was given to over 1,200 Americans between the ages of 18 and 26. All of them currently attend, or formerly attended, 2-or 4-year college or university. The average test score, out of 75 total possible answers, was 55 percent. The study identifies a few important problems. For example, only 30 percent knew that the only part of the US government that can declare war is Congress. Only 60 percent of those taking the survey could identify Brazil on a world map. Part of the problem, argue the organizers of the survey, is the Internet. They say it is becoming harder to find high-quality information about world events amongst all the fake news and trivia (琐事), which swamp the web. Forty-three percent of those questioned said they read about the news on the Internet. Another problem is that most college courses do not require students to learn about international issues. If such information is not required, Richard Haass from the Council on Foreign Relations said, then the United States could have leaders like Gary Johnson. He was a presidential candidate who did not know about the Syrian city of Aleppo when a reporter asked him about it. The survey results were not all bad. The young people also demonstrated a good understanding of climate change and renewable energy. And the majority of them said that international issues were becoming more important to them. Haass says these findings suggest the need to find ways to get good information to students, both in school and online. To help, the Council on Foreign Relations is creating a new program called CFR Campus, designed to help build knowledge about global issues. 12. What can we learn about the survey? A. All the participants were recent university graduates. B. It was an online survey conducted by two US universities. C. Its aim was to figure out what the young people knew about America. D. It was given to over 1,200 American people aged from 18 to 26. 13. What’s one reason the survey organizers give for young people’s lack of knowledge? A. Young people are unwilling to travel abroad. B. Young people find it harder to get high-quality information on the Internet. C. The US university system is of poor quality. D. Young people lack interest in knowing more about the world. 14. According to the survey, what topic did the young Americans understand best? A. Environmental matters. B. Geographic information. C. Foreign relations. D. Government organizations. 15. In which column of a newspaper could we find this article? A Economics. B. Entertainment. C. Politics. D. Education. 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。 How To Be a Bolder, More Confident Person Want to boost your self-confidence feel more empowered, and take charge of your life? ___16___ By embracing a bold mindset, you will unlock greater confidence, resilience, and control over your life.

Advanced robot companions are extremely well-suited to tap into our social ___21___ and make us behave as though we’re interacting with something alive. What does it mean to be ___22___ or physically violent toward an artificial agent? People have already started to ___23___.

She was a big dog on the Perkinses’ family farm, a woolly creature with floppy ears and paws like bedroom slippers. She protected the ducks and chickens from being eaten by foxes and raccoons (浣熊) . She guarded the children as well, watching over them as closely as she did the chickens and ducks. In winter the dog ran alongside the children as they sledded (滑雪橇) down snowy hills. In summer she swam with them in a nearby river. Bear belonged to a breed (品种) that had long been used by Atlantic fishermen to help with their work, and it had a keen instinct for water rescue. When the children were in the river, the dog would swim in circles around them, barking when she felt they went out too far. She was the perfect farm dog — companion, guardian, protector. The dog’s favorite among the three children was three-year-old little Mike. They often curled up together. Sometimes Bear would doze while Mike pretended to read to her. Often both were sound asleep, a tangle of dark fur, blond hair, small hands and huge paws. At bedtime, Mike saved his last hug for Bear, his “best friend”. On a cold winter day, when their parents went out to send a parcel, eight-year-old Martha, seven-year-old Sara and Mike, went to slide on the frozen pond of their farm. Shouting happily, they slid back and forth, their boots gliding easily across the ice. They laughed as they watched Bear’s attempts to stop suddenly, which would instead send her skidding beyond them. Then, tired, the three sat down on the ice, with Bear beside them. Suddenly the ice gave way under their combined weight. As Bear jumped for shore, the three children fell into the freezing cold water. Screaming, Martha and Sarah struggled to find footing on rocks underwater. Branches from a tree nearby provided handholds, and using every bit of their strength, the two girls pulled themselves to shore. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卷的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: Looking back, they saw little Mike holding on to a broken chunk (大块) of ice, unable to crawl onto it. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Seeing that, Bear let out a series of woofs and jumped into the water, heading straight for Mike. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
