In the 1940s,few women were accepted in science.Tharp,however,was determined to make her mark.She partnered with oceanographer Bruce Heezen,who collected sonar ()data from ships that crossed the Atlantic Occan.The data was just a string of numbers and graphs-without someone to translate it into a visual format,it was difficult to interpret.That was where Tharp came in.She began plotting thousands of data points,a painstaking process that required a mix of mathematical skill and artistic intuition. In the process of her mapping,Tharp discovered the central valley of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge,a place where the ocean floor was pulling apart.This was exactly the kind of evidence that could support the debatable theory of continental drift,which the majority of the scientific community waved aside at the time. Convincing the scientific community would prove difficult,since many geologists had long believed that the ocean floor was flat and featureless.Tharp and Heezen turned to art to create visual representations of the ocean floor.This produced stunning maps that brought Tharp's findings to life in a way that no scientific paper could.The beauty of these maps captured the imaginations of scientists and the public alike.Tharp's maps,and the evidence they provided, became a cornerstone of the modern understanding of geology.Her work proved that the ocean floor was not static but a dynamic,changing landscape. For many years,Tharp's contributions were overshadowed by her male colleagues-it was Bruce Heezen's name that often appeared on scientific papers.Tharp worked behind the scenes, receiving little recognition for her groundbreaking work. Today,satellite and sonar technology enable us to map the ocean floor with incredible precision, but none of this would have been possible without Tharp's pioneering efforts. 24.What underlying reason motivated Tharp's commitment to science? A.A request from Heezen. B.A need to store sonar data. C.A belief in continental drift. D.A desire to establish herself. 25.Why was Tharp's discovery of the central valley significant? A.It backed a then-dismissed theory. B.It showed sonar data was unreliable C.It confirmed the ocean floor was flat. D.It questioned a once-popular technology. 26.How did Tharp and Heezen make Tharp's findings widely accepted? A.By giving public lectures. B.By visualizing data points C.By consulting geology experts. D.By publishing scientific papers. 27.What can be inferred about Marie Tharp? A.Her contributions outnumbered those made by Heezen. B.She gained little credit in a male-dominated world. C.Her scientific achievements received instant approval. D.She laid the foundation for modern sonar mapping. ,第4页共10页 扫描全能王创建 Young people in the United States do not have a strong understanding of the world and their C Two US-based groups,the Council on Foreign Relations and the National Geographic Society, place in it. 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 Interet.They say it is becoming harder to find high-quality information about world events amongst all the fake news and unimportant information which flooded 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 meet this need,the Council on Foreign Relations is creating a new program called CFR Campus.We hope it will help build knowledge about global issues,but whether it can achieve this goal remains to be seen."he added. 28.What was the aim of the survey? A.To promote university courses on international affairs. B.To figure out what the young people know about America. C.To assess young American's global and political knowledge. D.To measure the professional performance of American universities. 29.What probably accounts for young people's lack of knowledge? A.Unwillingness to travel abroad. B.The sources to get information. C.Poor quality of US education system. D.Disinterest in the outside world. 30.According to the survey,what topic did the young Americans understand best? A.Environmental matters. B.Geographic information. C.Foreign relations. D.Government organizations. 31.What is Haass'attitude towards CFR Campus? A.Supportive. B.Objective. C.Skeptical. D.Cautious. 第5页共10页 扫描全能王创建 可只 D When we think about what makes humans unique,a good sense of humor is often high on the list.Laughter and playful teasing seem like traits only we possess.However,recent research suggests that animals-particularly great apes-may also engage in behavior that resembles humor. A study led by primatologist(灵长类a动物学家)Isabelle Laumer at the Max Planck Institute reveals fascinating insights."We documented young apes deliberately sneaking up to hit adults, then waiting expectantly for a reaction,"Laumer explains."This isn't random play-it meets all the criteria of intentional teasing."Over 75 hours of video recordings showed this behavior mirrors how human children joke:repetitive,surprising,and aimed at seeking responses.The researchers noted that the apes even paused to watch for the adult's reaction,much like a child waiting to see if their joke landed. But humor in animals may not be limited to apes.Dog owners often notice their pets making breathy,snorting sounds during play,which some scientists interpret as laughter.In a 2025 study, researchers found that playing these sounds to shelter dogs reduced their stress levels.Similarly, dolphins emit joyful sounds during play-fighting,elephants trumpet excitedly when playing,and some parrots tease other animals-like confusing dogs with whistles-just for fun. Why might animals exhibit humor?In humans,laughter strengthens social connections and eases tension.Scientists argue that playful teasing in apes or"laughter"in dogs could serve a similar purpose-breaking the ice and reinforcing relationships.Some researchers believe these behaviors may have evolved ()to help animals manage complex social ranks or reduce conflict. However,Laumer cautions that more research is needed to confirm this theory,as observing humor in animals remains challenging. While we may never know if animals understand punchlines,their behaviors hint at humor's deep evolutionary roots.As Laumer reflects:"The line between human and animal laughter isn't as sharp as we thought..” 32.What did Laumer's study find about young apes? A.They enjoy teasing others. B.They often fight in groups. C.They seek adult protection. D.They learn from human kids. 33.What does the underlined word"trumpet"in paragraph 3 mean? A.Wag. B.Smile. C.Nod. D.Shout. 34.Why might animals show humor? A.To improve social status. B.To strengthen social bonds. C.To win in complex conflicts D.To get much more pleasure. 35.What can be a suitable title for the text? A.Animal Social Behaviors B.Do Animals Copy Our Laughs? C.Animals Play Tricks Too D.Why Animals Understand Humor? 第6页共10页 只▣ 扫描全能王创建 第节（共5小题：每小题2.5分，共12.5分) 根据内容，从短文后的七个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。 Earlier this month,OpenAI revealed a new version in training mode that is"good at creative writing."Though its release date is unclear,as a longtime freshman composition instructor,I'm alrcady aware of the problem of A.I.-assisted cheating in writing classes.36 After all, students have been unvoluntarily exposed to an overwhelming amount of promotion around A.I., and have seen news that makes false claims about how powerful A.I.tools are. But a creative writing student using A.I.?In a memoir (writing class?What are you saying about your life if even you can't be bothered to think about it Having written two memoirs,I know the challenges and pleasures of this work,and I want my students to experience those challenges,too.37 Rather,it is about defining who you are,in part by revisiting particularly unpleasant experiences.This process makes the author more fully alive. 38 Using a machine that gathers information online and creates a fake version of you is not just cheating;it degrades our memories and humanity.Yet it's not the students who concern me most,but a culture that undervalues writing and reading so much that some students think skipping them is a reasonable choice. The only thing under my control as a teacher is what I do in my classroom.39 Whether they write best-sellers or just scribble in journals,doing the work with their full selves is what truly matters Writing can be a way to preserve ourselves and even a form of resistance.40 A.I'll teach students to write honestly. B.I can even sympathize,to an extent. C.This may feel like a battle already lost. D.Outsourcing your life story to AI is disheartening. E.The act of writing a memoir is not just about saying"Look at me". F.That fighting spirit is our greatest strength and exists only within us. G.It is upsetting to see AI creating fake stories,but maybe it's just new storytelling. 第7页共10页 扫描全能王创建 第三部分：语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第节（共15小题：每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答 题卡上将该项涂黑。 One afternoon,as I was diving into life's deeper questions with my students,a thoughtful boy named Jack raised his hand."Why do so many people feel lost?"he asked.41 their curiosity, I decided to show them the ropes through experience rather than simply 42."Follow me,"I said,leading them toward the nearby 43.

That's when he noticed the balloon's string was attached to a piece of paper."Dayami,"it read on one side,in a child's writing.A hand-drawn bow accompanied the word.Heiss flipped the paper over.On the back he saw a numbered list,all in Spanish.His Spanish wasn't very good, but he could see it was a Christmas list! Heiss was charmed.He suspected that a child had tried to send Santa Claus a Christmas wish list by balloon,something he used to do himself when he was a kid.Nobody had ever returned the letters Heiss had sent,but he wondered whether he could find the girl who had sent this one. It would be difficult,but Heiss had a few clues.About 20 miles to the southwest,just across the border,was the city of Nogales,Mexico,with a population of about a quarter million.Based on the wind direction,he was almost sure that was where it came from.Heiss brought the note home to his wife,who is fluent in Spanish and helped him translate the list.They determined that Dayami,probably a girl,had asked for a doll,a dollhouse,doll clothes and art supplies. Heiss then posted his search about finding Dayami on Facebook,attaching photos,hoping some of his friends in Nogales might know the girl's family.A few days passed with no results; Heiss worried that time was running out before Christmas.On December 19,2018,he decided to send a private Facebook message to Radio Xeny,an AM radio station based in Nogales.To his surprise,someone from the station called him back right away and promised him to post his search on the station's Facebook page immediately. 注意：1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1:The next morning,Heiss awoke to a messagefrom Radio Xeny.
