一、句型转换
1.The shop has repaired my computer very quickly. (转化为被动语态)
2.The government has taken effective measures to protect the endangered animals. (用被动语态改写)
3.The book has been translated into several languages.(改为主动语态)
4.The local government has carried out several environmental protection measures to reduce air pollution over the past three years.(改为被动句)
5.The generous man has donated large amounts of money to the charity organization (改为被动语态)
6.We should use a strong password to keep our property and ourselves safe. (用it作形式主语“it is important to do sth.”及“by+ doing”来改写)
7.We should protect our privacy well. We should use a strong password. (改为不定式短语作目的状语)
【答案】
1.My computer has been repaired in the shop very quickly.
【详解】考查主动语态与被动语态的转换。句意:这家店很快修好了我的电脑。被动语态的结构为“主语 + be + 过去分词 + 其他”,原句主语为“The shop”,谓语为“has repaired”,宾语为“my computer”。转换为被动语态时,宾语“my computer”作主语,原句为现在完成时,被动语态需保持时态一致,结构为“has been + 过去分词”,原句主语the shop转化为地点状语。故填My computer has been repaired in the shop very quickly.
2.Effective measures have been taken to protect the endangered animals by the government.
【详解】考查被动语态。句意:政府已经采取了有效措施来保护濒危动物。由主动语态改为被动语态,需将原句的宾语“effective measures”改为被动句的主语,原句的主语“the government”改为由介词by引出的动作执行者;原句谓语“has taken”是现在完成时的主动语态结构,改为现在完成时的被动语态结构“have/has been +过去分词”,即have/has been taken,主语是复数名词,助动词用复数形式have。故填Effective measures have been taken to protect the endangered animals by the government.
3.People have translated the book into several languages.
【详解】考查动词语态。句意:这本书已被翻译成几种语言。原句中The book是主语,has been translated是谓语,原句用现在完成时的被动语态。要将其改为主动语态,需要引入动作的执行者作为主语,由于原句未明确指出动作的执行者,我们可以用一个泛指的主语,如People。句子用现在完成时的主动形式,谓语动词has been translated变为主动形式have translated,宾语为the book,其余保持不变。故答案为:People have translated the book into several languages.
4.Several environmental protection measures have been carried out by the local government to reduce air pollution over the past three years.
【详解】考查现在完成时的被动语态和主谓一致。句意:在过去的三年里,当地政府已经采取了一些环境保护措施来减少空气污染。原句中的several environmental protection measures 与动词短语carry out 之间为被动关系,且为复数形式,助动词应用have,所以变为被动句后谓语动词为have been carried out,the local government为动作的发出者,所以应用介词by加the local government,其它不变,所以原句变为被动句后为Several environmental protection measures have been carried out by the local government to reduce air pollution over the past three years,故答案为Several environmental protection measures have been carried out by the local government to reduce air pollution over the past three years。
5.Large amounts of money have been donated to the charity organization by the generous man.
【详解】考查被动语态。句意:这个慷慨的人已经向慈善组织捐赠了大量的钱。要将其改为被动语态,我们需要将原句中的宾语“large amounts of money”变为主语,将主语“the generous man”变为由介词“by”引导的宾语;原句中的谓语为“has donated”改为“have/has been done”的形式,主语money有large amounts of修饰,谓语动词使用复数形式。故答案是:Large amounts of money have been donated to the charity organization by the generous man.。
6.It is important to keep our property and ourselves safe by using a strong password.
【详解】考查it作形式主语。句意:使用强密码来保护我们的财产和自身安全是很重要的。分析句子结构可知,本句可以用it作形式主语,真正的主语是动词不定式to keep our property and ourselves safe,即It is important to use a strong password to keep our property and ourselves safe,同时可以用by+doing表示“通过某种方式”,即by using a strong password。故填It is important to keep our property and ourselves safe by using a strong password .
7.We should use a strong password to protect our privacy well.
【详解】考查不定式短语作目的状语。句意:为了很好地保护我们的隐私,我们应该使用一个强密码。分析句子结构可知,句子主干为We should use a strong password,已有谓语动词should use,需用不定式短语to protect our privacy well作目的状语。故填We should use a strong password to protect our privacy well.

一、阅读理解
Can a small group of drones (无人机) guarantee the safety and reliability of railways and, at the same time, help railway operators save billions of euros each year? That is the very likely future of applying today’s “eyes in the sky” technology to making sure that the millions of kilometres of rail tracks and infrastructure (基础设施) worldwide are safe for trains on a 24/7 basis.
Drones are already being used to examine high-tension electrical lines. They could do precisely the same thing to inspect railway lines and other vital aspects of rail infrastructure such as the correct position of railway tracks and switching points. The more regularly they can be inspected, the more railway safety, reliability and on-time performance will be improved. Costs would be cut and operations would be more efficient (高效) across the board.
That includes huge savings in maintenance (维护) costs and better protection of railway personnel safety. It is calculated that European railways alone spend approximately 20 billion euros a year on maintenance, including sending maintenance staff, often at night, to inspect and repair the rail infrastructure. That can be dangerous work that could be avoided with drones assisting the crews’ efforts.
By using the latest technologies, drones could also start providing higher-value services for railways, detecting faults in the rail or switches, before they can cause any safety problems. To perform these tasks, drones for rail don’t need to be flying overhead. Engineers are now working on a new concept: the rail drones of the future. They will be moving on the track ahead of the train, and programmed to run autonomously. Very small drones with advanced sensors and AI and travelling ahead of the train could guide it like a co-pilot. With their ability to see ahead, they could signal any problem, so that fast-moving trains would be able to react in time.
1.What is the main purpose of using drones in railway inspection?
A.To reduce the cost of railway construction.
B.To improve railway safety and efficiency.
C.To replace railway maintenance staff entirely.
D.To provide passengers with better services.
2.What does the underlined word “That” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A.Sending staff to inspect and repair railways at night.
B.The high cost of maintaining railway infrastructure.
C.The use of drones in examining high-tension lines.
D.Improving the on-time performance of trains.
3.What can be inferred about the future rail drones?
A.They will fly overhead to detect railway faults.
B.They will work autonomously ahead of the train.
C.They will replace the train drivers gradually.
D.They will signal problems after the train passes.
4.What does the author think of applying drones to railways?
A.It is costly but effective. B.It has a promising future.
C.It requires more technologies. D.It is too dangerous to implement.
5.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A.Drones: The Future of Railway Safety
B.European Railways: A Case Study
C.Railway Infrastructure: Maintenance and Costs
D.High-Tech Co-pilots: Revolutionizing Trains

French scientists from France’s Atomic Energy Commission (CEA) have announced their experiment — carried out on February 12 — has set a new record of 1,337 seconds for keeping or maintaining hydrogen atoms in a state called plasma (等离子体), 25 percent longer than the previous one, which was set in China last month.
The team said their work marks an important step in the search for nuclear fusion (核聚变) methods that could produce clean, safe and almost limitless energy. The aim of fusion research is to create the same kind of nuclear reaction as happens in the center of the sun. In a fusion reaction, the centers of two atoms fuse, or join together, to form a new atom with a heavier nucleus, or center, releasing large amounts of energy.
However, because fusion happens at very high temperatures, it is difficult to control. The scientists in France used a machine — a circular ring with strong walls to resist intense heat — called a tokamak to do their research. Inside the ring, hydrogen atoms are heated to temperatures up to about 50 million degrees Celsius, creating plasma that is held together by powerful magnets.
Anne-Isabelle Etienvre, CEA’s head of fundamental research, told the French news agency AFP the new record for making plasma shows “that we control its production, but also its maintenance.” However, Etienvre noted that there are still many “technological barriers” to overcome before fusion can “produce more energy than it consumes”.
Scientists say that for nuclear fusion to succeed, hydrogen atoms will need to be heated up to more than 100 million degrees Celsius. But at this extreme temperature, plasma can become unstable and difficult to control, which can lead to energy loss and limit how well a possible future nuclear fusion reactor could work.
In the coming months, the research team will look to increase the time they can keep the atoms in a plasma state, hoping to bring the total time “up to several hours combined”. The CEA noted that in future experiments, scientists will also aim to heat the plasma to higher temperatures and examine the effects the hot plasma has on their testing machine.
Teams from multiple countries are working together in southern France to build the world’s largest tokamak and fusion research center, called ITER, hoping the current research on maintaining plasma will be useful for future projects at ITER. However, AFP reports that repeated delays and increasing costs have postponed operations at ITER until at least 2033.
1.What is the main achievement reported by French scientists?
A.They created a new type of tokamak machine.
B.They achieved nuclear fusion at 100 million degrees Celsius.
C.They broke China’s record for plasma maintenance time by 25%.
D.They sustained plasma for 1,337 seconds, setting a new world record.
2.According to the text, what remains a major challenge for nuclear fusion?
A.Building larger tokamak machines.
B.Reducing experiment costs.
C.Maintaining plasma stability at over 100 million degrees Celsius.
D.Finding alternative energy sources.
3.What will the scientists mainly try to do in the next step?
A.To heat the plasma to 100 million degrees Celsius.
B.To keep hydrogen atoms in a plasma state longer.
C.To test how the hot plasma affects the testing machine.
D.To research how nuclear fusion happens.
4.Which would be the best title for the passage?
A.Plasma — a state of hydrogen atoms
B.Nuclear fusion — a technology to improve human life
C.A great breakthrough — scientists made in nuclear fusion
D.Hydrogen atoms — the fuel of nuclear fusion
【答案】1.D 2.C 3.B 4.C

(法国原子能委员会 (CEA) 的科学家宣布,他们在2月12日进行的实验创造了将氢原子保持在等离子体状态1337秒的新纪录,比上个月在中国创造的纪录长25%。)”可知,法国科学家的主要成就是将等离子体维持了1337秒,创造了新的世界纪录。故选D。
2.细节理解题。根据第五段“Scientists say that for nuclear fusion to succeed, hydrogen atoms will need to be heated up to more than 100 million degrees Celsius. But at this extreme temperature, plasma can become unstable and difficult to control, which can lead to energy loss and limit how well a possible future nuclear fusion reactor could work. (科学家表示,要使核聚变成功,氢原子需要被加热到1亿摄氏度以上。但在这种极端温度下,等离子体可能变得不稳定且难以控制,这可能导致能量损失,并限制未来可能的核聚变反应堆的工作效果。)”可知,核聚变面临的主要挑战是在超过1亿摄氏度下维持等离子体的稳定性。故选C。
3.细节理解题。根据第六段中“In the coming months, the research team will look to increase the time they can keep the atoms in a plasma state, hoping to bring the total time “up to several hours combined”. (在接下来的几个月里,研究团队将寻求延长将原子保持在等离子体状态的时间,希望总时间“达到数小时”。)”可知,科学家下一步的主要目标是延长氢原子在等离子体状态下的时间。故选B。
4.主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是根据第一段“French scientists from France’s Atomic Energy Commission (CEA) have announced their experiment — carried out on February 12 — has set a new record of 1,337 seconds for keeping or maintaining hydrogen atoms in a state called plasma (等离子体), 25 percent longer than the previous one, which was set in China last month. (法国原子能委员会(CEA)的科学家宣布,他们在2月12日进行的实验创造了将氢原子保持在等离子体状态1337秒的新纪录,比上个月在中国创造的纪录长25%。)”可知,本文主要介绍了法国科学家在核聚变研究方面取得的突破,包括创造了新的等离子体维持时间的新纪录,并讨论了核聚变的挑战和未来计划。因此,C选项“A great breakthrough — scientists made in nuclear fusion (科学家在核聚变方面取得的重大突破)”符合文意,最适合作为本文标题。故选C。

一、阅读理解
Can a small group of drones (无人机) guarantee the safety and reliability of railways and, at the same time, help railway operators save billions of euros each year? That is the very likely future of applying today’s “eyes in the sky” technology to making sure that the millions of kilometres of rail tracks and infrastructure (基础设施) worldwide are safe for trains on a 24/7 basis.
Drones are already being used to examine high-tension electrical lines. They could do precisely the same thing to inspect railway lines and other vital aspects of rail infrastructure such as the correct position of railway tracks and switching points. The more regularly they can be inspected, the more railway safety, reliability and on-time performance will be improved. Costs would be cut and operations would be more efficient (高效) across the board.
That includes huge savings in maintenance (维护) costs and better protection of railway personnel safety. It is calculated that European railways alone spend approximately 20 billion euros a year on maintenance, including sending maintenance staff, often at night, to inspect and repair the rail infrastructure. That can be dangerous work that could be avoided with drones assisting the crews’ efforts.
By using the latest technologies, drones could also start providing higher-value services for railways, detecting faults in the rail or switches, before they can cause any safety problems. To perform these tasks, drones for rail don’t need to be flying overhead. Engineers are now working on a new concept: the rail drones of the future. They will be moving on the track ahead of the train, and programmed to run autonomously. Very small drones with advanced sensors and AI and travelling ahead of the train could guide it like a co-pilot. With their ability to see ahead, they could signal any problem, so that fast-moving trains would be able to react in time.
1.What is the main purpose of using drones in railway inspection?
A.To reduce the cost of railway construction.
B.To improve railway safety and efficiency.
C.To replace railway maintenance staff entirely.
D.To provide passengers with better services.
2.What does the underlined word “That” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A.Sending staff to inspect and repair railways at night.
B.The high cost of maintaining railway infrastructure.
C.The use of drones in examining high-tension lines.
D.Improving the on-time performance of trains.
3.What can be inferred about the future rail drones?
A.They will fly overhead to detect railway faults.
B.They will work autonomously ahead of the train.
C.They will replace the train drivers gradually.
D.They will signal problems after the train passes.
4.What does the author think of applying drones to railways?
A.It is costly but effective. B.It has a promising future.
C.It requires more technologies. D.It is too dangerous to implement.
5.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A.Drones: The Future of Railway Safety
B.European Railways: A Case Study
C.Railway Infrastructure: Maintenance and Costs
D.High-Tech Co-pilots: Revolutionizing Trains
French scientists from France’s Atomic Energy Commission (CEA) have announced their experiment — carried out on February 12 — has set a new record of 1,337 seconds for keeping or maintaining hydrogen atoms in a state called plasma (等离子体), 25 percent longer than the previous one, which was set in China last month.
The team said their work marks an important step in the search for nuclear fusion (核聚变) methods that could produce clean, safe and almost limitless energy. The aim of fusion research is to create the same kind of nuclear reaction as happens in the center of the sun. In a fusion reaction, the centers of two atoms fuse, or join together, to form a new atom with a heavier nucleus, or center, releasing large amounts of energy.
However, because fusion happens at very high temperatures, it is difficult to control. The scientists in France used a machine — a circular ring with strong walls to resist intense heat — called a tokamak to do their research. Inside the ring, hydrogen atoms are heated to temperatures up to about 50 million degrees Celsius, creating plasma that is held together by powerful magnets.
Anne-Isabelle Etienvre, CEA’s head of fundamental research, told the French news agency AFP the new record for making plasma shows “that we control its production, but also its maintenance.” However, Etienvre noted that there are still many “technological barriers” to overcome before fusion can “produce more energy than it consumes”.
Scientists say that for nuclear fusion to succeed, hydrogen atoms will need to be heated up to more than 100 million degrees Celsius. But at this extreme temperature, plasma can become unstable and difficult to control, which can lead to energy loss and limit how well a possible future nuclear fusion reactor could work.
In the coming months, the research team will look to increase the time they can keep the atoms in a plasma state, hoping to bring the total time “up to several hours combined”. The CEA noted that in future experiments, scientists will also aim to heat the plasma to higher temperatures and examine the effects the hot plasma has on their testing machine.
Teams from multiple countries are working together in southern France to build the world’s largest tokamak and fusion research center, called ITER, hoping the current research on maintaining plasma will be useful for future projects at ITER. However, AFP reports that repeated delays and increasing costs have postponed operations at ITER until at least 2033.
1.What is the main achievement reported by French scientists?
A.They created a new type of tokamak machine.
B.They achieved nuclear fusion at 100 million degrees Celsius.
C.They broke China’s record for plasma maintenance time by 25%.
D.They sustained plasma for 1,337 seconds, setting a new world record.
2.According to the text, what remains a major challenge for nuclear fusion?
A.Building larger tokamak machines.
B.Reducing experiment costs.
C.Maintaining plasma stability at over 100 million degrees Celsius.
D.Finding alternative energy sources.
3.What will the scientists mainly try to do in the next step?
A.To heat the plasma to 100 million degrees Celsius.
B.To keep hydrogen atoms in a plasma state longer.
C.To test how the hot plasma affects the testing machine.
D.To research how nuclear fusion happens.
4.Which would be the best title for the passage?
A.Plasma — a state of hydrogen atoms
B.Nuclear fusion — a technology to improve human life
C.A great breakthrough — scientists made in nuclear fusion
D.Hydrogen atoms — the fuel of nuclear fusion
二、七选五
Need a quick answer or just a smart assistant in your pocket? The AI companion offers exactly that—and much more.
Alex Chen, the lead AI developer behind this project, wears his signature hoodie (连帽衫) and glasses as he adjusts the system daily. His goal? 1 The AI processes requests in milliseconds, responding with clear, well-structured answers. When users engage with it, a friendly “How can I assist you today?” sets the tone—a small but meaningful touch that makes the exchange feel personal. Even during peak hours, when thousands of requests flood in all at once, the AI remains reliable, never sacrificing speed or accuracy.
Chen’s day begins at 5:30 a.m., reviewing user feedback and working on the AI’s learning models. 2 “I want this technology to feel effortless— like chatting with a knowledgeable friend,” he explains. His passion for AI arises from years of studying machine learning, but what truly drives him is making complex tech accessible to everyone.
3 Lisa Park, a university student majoring in computer science, relies on the AI daily. “It’s not just about getting answers— it’s how the AI explains things. Even difficult concepts become easy to grasp,” she says. For her, the AI isn’t just a tool. 4 Another user, Mark Reynolds, a freelance writer, adds, “It helps me brainstorm ideas faster than I could alone. The suggestions are creative and actually useful.”
“ I can’t imagine working on anything else,” Chen admits. 5 His team is already testing new features, like voice interaction and real-time language translation, to expand its capabilities.
A.It’s a study partner that adapts to her learning style.
B.To ensure every interaction feels natural and helpful.
C.He organizes weekly user meetings to collect advice.
D.After five years of refining the AI, he’s determined to make it smarter.
E.Some mornings, he logs in early to push updates before users wake up.
