Some other people are just curious about foreign cultures. Whatever your reason may be, the best foreign language software around will certainly help you pick up the language in a few weeks. You will be able to speak fluently and understand the language clearly as well. Tell Me More This software is widely used in US schools, and it is believed to be the best foreign language learning software around the world. It offers instructions for learning Arabic, Chinese, Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese and Spanish. However, the software does not come cheap as it costs around $ 250. Talk Now If you are looking for cheaper language learning software, then this is just the suitable choice for you. This software will cost you around $40, and even though it is not as useful as Tell Me More, it is still very good software for the purpose. The disadvantage is that there is a clear lack (缺少) of interactive (互动的) activities for users so it does not result in fluency. Instant Immersion This software supplies learning material for up to 35 different languages, and it is widely considered as the best software for learning Spanish as well. It will cost you around $ 30, and this is a very reasonable price for such a piece of highly recommended and loved language learning software. The learning courses are highly interactive, and the ever present speech recognition (语音识别) feature ensures that you are getting the pronunciation right when you speak. Kid Speak This is a kind of foreign language translation software that you can make use of, and it will cost you around $ 30. So it is safe to say that the level of performance will be similar to that of Talk Now. This software is designed more for children to use for interesting videos. 1．What can we know about learning a language from Paragraph 1? A．Different people have different purposes. B．It is unnecessary to talk with the natives. C．Understanding foreign cultures is the key. D．Using software is the most effective way. 2．What is the disadvantage of Tell Me More? A．It has no interactive activities. B．It costs much more than the others. C．It is short of language learning methods. D．It provides no interesting videos for children. 3．Which of the software best suits users with poor pronunciation? A．Kid Speak. B．Tell Me More. C．Talk Now. D．Instant Immersion. 【答案】1．A 2．B 3．D 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了四款语言学习的软件。 1．细节理解题, 根据第一段“Some people learn a foreign language because they want to communicate with the local people. Some other people are just curious about foreign cultures.(有些人学习外语是因为他们想要与当地人交流。还有一些人则是出于对外国文化的好奇而学习外语)”可知，人们学习外语出于各种原因，即出于不同的目的。故选A。 2．细节理解题。根据Tell Me More部分“However, the software does not come cheap as it costs around $ 250.(然而，这款软件价格不菲，大约要250美元)”可知，Tell Me More的缺点是它比其他的贵很多。故选B。 3．细节理解题。根据Instant Immersion部分“The learning courses are highly interactive, and the ever present speech recognition (语音识别) feature ensures that you are getting the pronunciation right when you speak.(这些学习课程具有很强的互动性，而且始终存在的语音识别功能能确保您在说话时的发音准确无误)”可知，Instant Immersion这款软件最适合发音不好的用户。故选D。 B With the rapid development of artificial intelligence, DeepSeek, a Chinese AI company, has emerged as a pioneer in educational technology. Its latest model, DeepSeek-R1, combines advanced machine learning methods to provide personalized learning solutions for students worldwide. Unlike traditional AI models that rely on pre-programmed answers, DeepSeek-R1 uses reinforcement learning to simulate human reasoning. This allows it to guide students through problem-solving step by step, much like a patient tutor. For example, when a student struggles with a math equation, DeepSeek-R1 doesn’t just give the answer; it breaks down the logic, identifies errors, and encourages critical thinking. The model’s applications extend beyond academics. In language learning, it analyzes students’ pronunciation through AI speech recognition and offers real-time feedback. For teachers, DeepSeek-R1 can generate lesson plans aligned with curriculum standards and even predict students’ learning difficulties based on historical data. Its “adaptive testing” feature creates customized quizzes that adjust difficulty according to individual progress. However, challenges remain. Critics argue that over-reliance on AI might reduce human interaction in education. DeepSeek’s developers address this by emphasizing its role as a “supplement, not a replacement.” As Dr. Li, a DeepSeek researcher, stated, “Our goal is to free teachers from repetitive tasks so they can focus on inspiring creativity.” Looking ahead, DeepSeek aims to integrate virtual reality (VR) into its platform, allowing students to explore historical events or scientific concepts in immersive 3D environments. While ethical debates about AI in education persist, one thing is clear: tools like DeepSeek are reshaping how we learn, blending technology with human wisdom. 4．What makes DeepSeek-R1 different from traditional AI models? A．It uses pre-programmed answers. B．It focuses on memorization techniques. C．It replaces teachers in classrooms. D．It employs reinforcement learning for reasoning. 5．The underlined word “adaptive” in Paragraph 3 most likely means ________. A．fixed B．adjustable C．complicated D．outdated 6．What can be inferred about DeepSeek’s future plans? A．VR technology will enhance interactive learning. B．It will eliminate all classroom activities. C．It prioritizes profit over educational values. D．Teachers will lose their jobs to AI. 7．What is the main purpose of the passage? A．To advertise DeepSeek products. B．To criticize the risks of AI in schools. C．To discuss AI’s role in transforming education. D．To compare different AI models. 【答案】4．D 5．B 6．A 7．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了中国人工智能公司DeepSeek推出的教育科技模型DeepSeek R1的特点、应用、面临的挑战及未来计划，探讨了人工智能在教育变革中的作用。 4．细节理解题。根据第二段中“Unlike traditional AI models that rely on pre programmed answers, DeepSeek R1 uses reinforcement learning to simulate human reasoning. (与依赖预编程答案的传统人工智能模型不同，DeepSeek R1使用强化学习来模拟人类推理)”可知，DeepSeek R1与传统人工智能模型的不同之处在于它采用强化学习进行推理。故选D项。 5．词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句“Its ‘adaptive testing’ feature creates customized quizzes that adjust difficulty according to individual progress. (它的‘……测试’功能可以根据个人进度调整难度，创建定制化测验)”可推知，这种测试可以根据个人进度调整难度，制定定制化测验，说明它是可调整的，是自适应的。所以划线词adaptive的意思是“可调整的”，与B项“adjustable”同义。故选B项。 6．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Looking ahead, DeepSeek aims to integrate virtual reality (VR) into its platform, allowing students to explore historical events or scientific concepts in immersive 3D environments. (展望未来，DeepSeek旨在将虚拟现实(VR)集成到其平台中，让学生在沉浸式的3D环境中探索历史事件或科学概念)”可推知，在将来，DeepSeek会集成虚拟现实(VR)到其平台中，用VR技术来增强交互式学习。故选A项。 7．推理判断题。通读全文，结合第一段中“With the rapid development of artificial intelligence, DeepSeek, a Chinese AI company, has emerged as a pioneer in educational technology. (随着人工智能的快速发展，中国人工智能公司DeepSeek已成为教育科技领域的先驱)”和最后一段中“While ethical debates about AI in education persist, one thing is clear: tools like DeepSeek are reshaping how we learn, blending technology with human wisdom. (虽然关于人工智能在教育中的伦理辩论仍在继续，但有一点很清楚：像DeepSeek这样的工具正在重塑我们的学习方式，将技术与人类智慧相结合)”可知，本文主要讨论了人工智能在教育变革中的作用。故选C项。 C The enormous fictional robots of the “Transformers” universe move along the ground in one of two ways. On wheels, when they are shaped like vehicles; on huge manlike feet when they are not. For decades, most real-world robots also fell neatly into these two fictional categories. Then, around 15 years ago, came the realization that other means of movement were possible. “Zoomorphic” robots mined the animal kingdom for inspiration, drawing on evolution’s thousands of years of research and development. Animal-like robots continue to be popular. And yet, says Barbara Mazzolai, an Italian roboticist, the field of robotics has proved far less eager to investigate the other major category of living things—plants. She blames the unwillingness on a misconception about the usefulness of plant behavior: that they are capable of neither motion nor perception. “It’s not true at all,” she says. Dr. Mazzolai and her team recently revealed “FiloBot”, a robot based on climbing plants. Like the real thing, FiloBot is capable of growing, attaching to and winding around supports, and handling an environment in response to external stimuli (刺激). The researchers found that these simple functions were enough to let FiloBot move through a complex, unseen environment, cross gaps and find things to attach to. They believe that this makes it suitable for potential applications including environmental monitoring in hard-to-reach or unknown locations where piloting a robot along an exact course might be impossible, or monitoring disaster sites where an existing structure is unstable. FiloBot is not the only plantlike robot the team is working on. Dr. Mazzolai has been developing “planetoids”, based on roots, since 2012. And in 2021, her team, along with European partners, started developing “I-Seed”, a biodegradable mini-bot that can be moved about by wind and rain and change shape according to humidity. It could be used to carry and distribute real seeds for reforestation, opening up and releasing its load once it hits suitable soil. Dr. Mazzolai hopes that such projects will encourage other roboticists to draw inspiration from plants. 8．What are the two traditional ways for robots to move on the ground according to the text? A．By climbing and winding. B．By using wheels and manlike feet. C．By mining and drawing. D．By attaching and growing. 9．What is the main reason that the field of robotics has been less eager to investigate plant-based robots? A．Plants’ behaviors are enormously hard to imitate in robotics. B．There is a misunderstanding that plants have no motion and perception. C．Animal-based robots are more popular and widespread. D．Robots based on plants are less useful in real-world applications. 10．In which field is Filobot most likely to be applied? A．Urban building checks. B．Crowd control. C．Mall cleaning. D．Earthquake rescue. 11．What’s the main idea of the passage? A．Robotics’ diverse evolution. B．Misconceptions in robotics. C．Plants’ new chapter in robotics. D．Animal-robots’ dominance. 【答案】8．B 9．B 10．D 11．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍受植物启发的机器人研究，如FiloBot等，及其潜在应用场景。 8．细节理解题。根据第一段中的“On wheels, when they are shaped like vehicles; on huge manlike feet when they are not. For decades, most real-world robots also fell neatly into these two fictional categories.(当它们形如车辆时靠轮子移动；否则靠巨大的类人脚移动。几十年来，大多数现实世界的机器人也恰好属于这两种虚构的类别)”可知，机器人在地面上移动的两种传统方式是使用轮子和类人脚。故选B项。 9．细节理解题。根据第二段中的“She blames the unwillingness on a misconception about the usefulness of plant behavior: that they are capable of neither motion nor perception. “It’s not true at all,” she says. (她将这种不情愿归咎于对植物行为有用性的误解：认为它们既不能移动也不能感知。“这根本不是真的，”她说)”可知，机器人领域不太热衷于研究基于植物的机器人的主要原因是存在“植物没有运动和感知能力”的误解。故选B项。 10．推理判断题。根据第四段中的“They believe that this makes it suitable for potential applications including environmental monitoring in hard-to-reach or unknown locations where piloting a robot along an exact course might be impossible, or monitoring disaster sites where an existing structure is unstable.(他们认为，这使其适合潜在应用，包括在难以到达或未知的位置进行环境监测（在这些地方可能无法按精确路线驾驶机器人），或监测现有结构不稳定的灾难现场)”可知，FiloBot最可能应用于地震救援（属于监测结构不稳定的灾难现场）。故选D项。 11．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第三段中的“Dr. Mazzolai and her team recently revealed “FiloBot”, a robot based on climbing plants. (马佐莱博士和她的团队最近展示了“FiloBot”，一种基于攀缘植物的机器人)”及第五段中的“FiloBot is not the only plantlike robot the team is working on. Dr. Mazzolai has been developing “planetoids”, based on roots, since 2012. And in 2021, her team, along with European partners, started developing “I-Seed”, a biodegradable mini-bot that can be moved about by wind and rain and change shape according to humidity. (自2012年以来，马佐莱博士一直在开发基于根系的 “植物机器人”。2021年，她的团队与欧洲合作伙伴一起开始研发“I - Seed”，这是一种可生物降解的微型机器人，能够随风和雨移动，并根据湿度改变形状)”和尾段中的“Dr. Mazzolai hopes that such projects will encourage other roboticists to draw inspiration from plants.(马佐莱博士希望这类项目能鼓励其他机器人专家从植物中汲取灵感)”可知，文章围绕受植物启发的机器人展开，主要介绍了马佐拉伊团队开发的植物仿生机器人（如FiloBot和I-Seed）以及这类机器人为机器人领域带来新方向。故选C项。 D Chinese researchers have recently developed a novel wearable artificial intelligence (AI) system to assist blind individuals with navigation, with the findings published Monday in the journal Nature Machine Intelligence. The system integrates visual, sound, and touch signals, using AI algorithms to scan the surrounding environment. When the wearer approaches obstacles or objects, it sends signals to guide them through movements, object handling, and other visual tasks, thereby enhancing their independence in daily life. For instance, if someone is about to bump into a chair, the system will warn them through voice messages or gentle vibrations (振动), allowing them to avoid danger and handle tasks more easily. This breakthrough in biomedical engineering was led by Gu Leilei, an associate professor at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, in cooperation with researchers from Fudan University, the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, East China Normal University, and other partners. The team innovatively combined advanced AI algorithms with hardware systems. Equipped with a camera for visual data collection, the device processes environmental information through AI, then sends navigation commands via bone-conduction earphones (which don’t block outside sounds) and a soft electronic patch on the wrist. When obstacles or targets are identified, the system generates real-time commands like “advance,” “turn left,” or “grasp” until tasks are completed. During virtual simulations and real-world tests, the system demonstrated superior performance in experiments involving both humanoid robots and visually impaired participants. Humanoid robots using this technology successfully moved through complicated hospital hallways, avoiding obstacles 98.7% of the time. Meanwhile, blind participants completed difficult object-finding tasks with an 89% success rate. Notably, the system’s active learning capability allows continuous performance improvement through user interaction. Clinical evaluations showed a 40% reduction in collision frequency compared to traditional white cane navigation. This innovation not only redefines assistive technology for the visually impaired but also pioneers new applications for human-machine cooperation in medical rehabilitation and smart city infrastructure. The team has initiated partnerships with disability organizations to conduct large-scale field trials, aiming for regulatory approval and commercialization within two years. 12．What is the main purpose of the wearable AI system mentioned in the text? A．To replace traditional white canes completely. B．To combine sensory signals for navigation assistance. C．To monitor users’ health conditions remotely. D．To provide entertainment for blind individuals. 13．How does the system help users avoid obstacles? A．By physically moving them away from danger. B．By automatically stopping their movement. C．By sending voice messages or vibrations. D．By changing the environment’s layout. 14．Why might researchers have chosen bone-conduction earphones instead of regular head phones? A．To ensure users can still hear environmental sounds. B．Because they are cheaper to produce. C．To make the device look more futuristic. D．Because they provide louder audio feedback. 15．What is the author’s attitude towards the breakthrough of this assistive technology? A．Disapproving. B．Promising. C．Indifferent. D．Conservative. 【答案】12．B 13．C 14．A 15．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国研究人员开发新型可穿戴人工智能系统以辅助盲人导航。 12．推理判断题。根据第二段“The system integrates visual, sound, and touch signals, using AI algorithms to scan the surrounding environment. When the wearer approaches obstacles or objects, it sends signals to guide them through movements, object handling, and other visual tasks, thereby enhancing their independence in daily life.(该系统整合了视觉、声音和触觉信号，使用人工智能算法扫描周围环境。当佩戴者接近障碍物或物体时，它会发出信号，通过动作、物体处理和其他视觉任务来引导他们，从而提高他们在日常生活中的独立性)”可知，该可穿戴人工智能系统的主要目的是结合感官信号进行导航辅助。故选B。 13．细节理解题。根据第二段“For instance, if someone is about to bump into a chair, the system will warn them through voice messages or gentle vibrations, allowing them to avoid danger and handle tasks more easily.(例如，如果有人即将撞到椅子上，系统会通过语音信息或轻柔的振动来警告他们，让他们避免危险，更容易处理任务)”可知，该系统通过发送语音信息或振动来帮助用户避免障碍物。故选C。 14．细节理解题。根据第四段“Equipped with a camera for visual data collection, the device processes environmental information through AI, then sends navigation commands via bone-conduction earphones (which don’t block outside sounds) and a soft electronic patch on the wrist.(该设备配备了用于视觉数据收集的摄像头，通过人工智能处理环境信息，然后通过骨传导耳机（不会阻挡外界声音）和手腕上的柔软电子贴片发送导航指令)”可知，研究人员选择骨传导耳机而不是普通耳机是为了确保用户仍然能听到环境声音。故选A。 15．推理判断题。根据最后一段“This innovation not only redefines assistive technology for the visually impaired but also pioneers new applications for human-machine cooperation in medical rehabilitation and smart city infrastructure. The team has initiated partnerships with disability organizations to conduct large-scale field trials, aiming for regulatory approval and commercialization within two years.(这一创新不仅重新定义了针对视障人士的辅助技术，还开创了人机合作在医疗康复和智慧城市基础设施中的新应用。该团队已与残疾人组织建立合作伙伴关系，开展大规模现场试验，目标是在两年内获得监管批准并实现商业化)”可知，作者对这项辅助技术的突破持乐观态度，认为它很有前景。故选B。 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 Today, people use the Internet to shop, play games, make friends and read the news. Many young people can’t imagine life without it. 16 In fact, the Internet has been used for a much longer time than most people think. In 1957, the United States was in the middle of the Cold War. The Soviet Union (苏联) had sent up the first satellite (卫星), named Sputnik, into space. This meant the Soviets were ahead of the U. S. in technology. Americans were afraid. 17 One of the ideas was a network (网络) that would let people across the country communicate by using computers. 18 It was first tried out in 1969. For another twenty years, it was used only by scientists who worked with the U. S. government and by some engineers. Then, in 1990, the army of America gave the control of the Internet to the National Science Foundation. 19 The biggest change in the way that people use the Internet came in 1992. For the first time, the Internet was opened to the general public, creating what is now known as the World Wide Web. 20 Today, no one government controls the Internet and it just gets bigger and bigger. It makes our world different. A．The network took more than ten years to develop. B．The Internet then became available to colleges all over the United States and to scientists across Europe. C．Scientists in the army of America started developing ideas for protecting the country. D．People began to be fond of the Internet. E．They didn’t know what to do. F．Soon, people began finding all kinds of different things they could do on the Internet. G．Most older people, on the other hand, think the Internet is only 10 or 15 years old. 【答案】16．G 17．C 18．A 19．B 20．F 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了互联网的发展历程，从冷战时期美国军方科学家的设想，到逐步发展并向公众开放，如今互联网规模不断扩大且不受单一政府控制。 16．上文“Many young people can’t imagine life without it.(许多年轻人无法想象没有互联网的生活)”描述了年轻人对互联网的依赖，G选项“Most older people, on the other hand, think the Internet is only 10 or 15 years old.(另一方面，大多数老年人认为互联网只有10到15年的历史)”与上文形成对比，说明不同年龄段的人对互联网的认知差异，同时引出后文“In fact, the Internet has been used for a much longer time than most people think.(事实上，互联网的使用时间比大多数人想象的要长得多)”关于互联网历史的事实。故选G项。 17．上文“Americans were afraid.(美国人很害怕)”表明当时美国人因苏联在科技上领先而产生了恐惧心理，C选项“Scientists in the army of America started developing ideas for protecting the country.(美国军队的科学家开始想出保护国家的办法)”承接上文，说明美国人在恐惧之下采取的行动，即军方科学家开始想办法保护国家，上下文逻辑连贯。故选C项。 18．下文“It was first tried out in 1969. For another twenty years, it was used only by scientists who worked with the U. S. government and by some engineers.(它于1969年首次进行试验。在接下来的20年里，它只被与美国政府合作的科学家和一些工程师使用)”说明互联网的发展和使用情况，A选项“The network took more than ten years to develop.(这个网络花了十多年时间才发展起来)”与下文相呼应，解释了互联网发展的时间跨度，同时句中“The network”与下文“It”构成指代关系。故选A项。 19．上文“Then, in 1990, the army of America gave the control of the Internet to the National Science Foundation.(然后，在1990年，美国军队将互联网的控制权交给了国家科学基金会)”讲述了互联网控制权的转移，B选项“The Internet then became available to colleges all over the United States and to scientists across Europe.(然后，互联网可供美国各地的大学和欧洲的科学家使用)”说明控制权转移后互联网使用范围的扩大，与上文逻辑紧密。故选B项。 20．上文“For the first time, the Internet was opened to the general public, creating what is now known as the World Wide Web.(互联网首次向公众开放，创造了现在所谓的万维网)”说明互联网向公众开放这一重要事件，F选项“Soon, people began finding all kinds of different things they could do on the Internet.(很快，人们开始发现他们可以在互联网上做各种各样不同的事情)”承接上文，说明互联网向公众开放后人们的新发现，上下文语意连贯。故选F项。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项 When 8-year-old Zoeya Khan was tasked with engineering a project that brings a creative solution to the world, she designed something to help her special peers (同龄人). As part of the Primary Engineer MacRobert Medal competition, Khan developed a design for an 21 called The Self Regulation Bracelet (手镯). The bracelet is designed to 22 communication in classrooms for some special students — including young people who have conditions like autism (孤独症), and more. Khan’s design 23 a simplified smartwatch, with a round white face that 24 a button-activated system. That system then provides visual responses through colored lights, which can 25 communication solutions between students, peers, and teachers. While the 26 may be a fun feature, they do indeed offer a separate option for students to communicate in schools especially when they may otherwise 27 barriers (障碍) in language processing, communication 28 , understanding social cues, managing sensory sensitivities, and more. Khan said she 29 some of her peers struggling to express their emotions and wanted to create something that made this easier.

We are used to 36 (see) square windows in most building structures. Now, think about airplanes and jetliners, which always have round windows. How strange 37 would be to walk down the passage of a jetliner and fasten your seat belt next to a square window. Actually, square windows 38 (be) the typical form in early commercial airplane industry. However, it was not until the occurrence of several tragic events that engineers started to re-examine 39 airplane window design. In the 1950s, commercial airliners were getting bigger and they also started breaking apart in mid-air. Two of those were de Havilland Comets, which happened in separate events in 1953 and 1954. The sharp edges of the planes’ square windows created natural weak spots. These corners were easily stressed, and then further 40 (weaken) by air pressure at higher altitudes. In the 1950s, aircraft like the de Havilland Comets were flying faster and higher, meaning after multiple flights and 41 (repeat) pressurization, those square windows 42 (basic) broke apart from the pressure. Round windows, on the other hand, can distribute the pressure evenly because they have no corners for pressure to concentrate, 43 (reduce) the probability of cracks. Circular shapes are also stronger and resist shape changes, making them more able to resist the pressure differences 44 the inside and outside of the aircraft. So, next time you’re on a flight, be thankful for the round windows, whether you’re enjoying the view or avoiding it as you don’t want 45 (remind) how high you are off the ground. 【答案】 36．seeing 37．it 38．were 39．the 40．weakened/were weakened 41．repeated 42．basically 43．reducing 44．between 45．to be reminded 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了飞机窗户从方形到圆形的演变过程及原因。 36．考查非谓语动词。句意：我们已经习惯了在大多数建筑结构中看到方形窗户。be used to doing sth.为固定短语，表示“习惯于做某事”，此处应用see“看到”的动名词，作宾语。故填seeing。 37．考查代词。句意：想象一下，走在喷气式飞机的过道上，在方形窗户旁系好安全带，这将是多么奇怪的事情。此处为形式主语，动词不定式短语to walk down the passage of a jetliner and fasten your seat belt next to a square window为真正主语，用it作形式主语。故填it。 38．考查时态和主谓一致。句意：实际上，方形窗户是早期商业航空工业的典型形式。根据in early commercial airplane industry可知，此处描述的是过去的事情，时态应用一般过去时，主语为square windows，be动词用were。故填were。 39．考查宾语从句。句意：然而，直到发生了几起悲剧性事件，工程师们才开始重新审视飞机窗户的设计。此处特指飞机窗户的设计，用定冠词the。故填the。 40．考查动词语态。句意：这些角落很容易受到压力，而且在更高的高度上，空气压力会进一步削弱它们。主语These corners与weaken“削弱”之间为被动关系，本空应用过去分词weakened，与空前的were构成一般过去时的被动语态。或者此处与were easily stressed为并列谓语，用were weakened。故填weakened或were weakened。 41．考查形容词。句意：在20世纪50年代，像德哈维兰彗星型客机这样的飞机飞得更快、更高，这意味着在多次飞行和反复加压后，那些方形窗户基本上会因压力而破裂。此处修饰名词pressurization，应用形容词repeated“反复的”，作定语。故填repeated。 42．考查副词。句意同上。此处修饰动词短语broke apart，应用副词basically“基本上”，作状语。故填basically。 43．考查非谓语动词。句意：另一方面，圆形窗户可以均匀地分布压力，因为它们没有角落让压力集中，从而降低了裂缝的可能性。because引导的原因状语从句谓语为have，此处为非谓语动词，表示自然而然的结果，应用reduce“减少”的现在分词形式，作结果状语。故填reducing。 44．考查介词。句意：圆形形状也更坚固，更能抵抗形状变化，使它们更能抵抗飞机内部和外部的压力差。between...and...为固定短语，表示“在……和……之间”。故填between。 45．考查非谓语动词。句意：所以，下次你坐飞机的时候，要感谢圆形窗户，无论你是在欣赏风景还是避免看到它，因为你不想被提醒自己离地面有多高。want to do sth.为固定短语，表示“想要做某事”，且主语you与remind“提醒”之间为被动关系，应用动词不定式的被动式to be done。故填to be reminded。 第四部分 写作（共两节, 满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 46．假定你是新华中学学生李华，你的英国好友Sansa了解到中国的5G技术世界领先，她对此很感兴趣，给你发电子邮件，希望你给她介绍一下关于5G技术的相关信息。现请你回复该邮件，内容包括： 1. 5G网络在中国刚起步； 2. 5G会催生许多新的机遇和挑战； 注意： 1．写作词数应为80左右； 2．可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Dear Sansa, I’m glad to receive your emails in which you’ve shown interest in China’s 5G technology.

She was one of thirteen children raised on a farm, and now, she is rather set in her ways. For twelve years, Grandma Agnes enjoyed the company of her dog, Snoopy. The black-and-white spotted mutt (杂种狗) was a constant presence in her home and yard. As time went on, Grandma Agnes began showing signs of dementia (老年痴呆). My family worked together to keep her living independently yet safe. It was heartbreaking for my dad when he removed the battery from her car to prevent her from driving with her still-valid license. After that, every visit ended with Grandma insisting he buy her a new battery, claiming hers was “dead again.” Dad would no d and promise, though he knew she’d forget. Three years ago, Snoop y passed away. My dad, Aunt Carol, and Uncle Ed tried to help Grandma understand. They held a small funeral in the backyard. Uncle Ed framed a photo of Snoopy with “Rest in Peace” written below and stuck it on the fridge. Yet during daily visits, Grandma still asked about Snoopy, accusing neighbors of stealing him because she “heard his barking.” Caring for someone with dementia is emotionally exhausting. For years, Dad warned me before each visit: “She might not recognize you or your kids.” We’d patiently answer the same questions repeatedly. Grandma Agnes is still stubbornly independent, but she struggles to make sense of the world. Still, she insists on living alone and never stops asking about Snoopy. 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。 A few months ago, Uncle Ed came up with a good idea and bought a robotic dog forGrandma Agnes. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Everyone was pleased that Grandma Agnes liked “Snoopy” a lot. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文1 A few months ago, Uncle Ed came up with a good idea and bought a robotic dog for Grandma Agnes. The new Snoopy looked almost the same as the old one, with black-and-white fur and a wagging tail. When Grandma touched its head, the robot barked softly and rubbed against her hand. “Oh, Snoopy! You’re back!” she cried, holding it close. From that day on, she “fed” it every morning and talked to it while sitting in the yard. Though the robotic dog couldn’t run or play, its programmed warmth seemed to comfort her. She stopped accusing the neighbors and even smiled more often. Everyone was pleased that Grandma Agnes liked “Snoopy” a lot. Last Sunday, I visited her with Dad. She didn’t recognize me, but she cheerfully introduced her “good boy” to us. The robotic dog sat beside her, its head resting on her lap as she hummed an old song. Dad whispered, “Technology may not cure her illness, but it gives her peace.” Watching Grandma gently stroke the robot’s fur, I realized how something as simple as a machine could reconnect her to lost love and memories. Science, in its own quiet way, had become a bridge between her fading world and the care we longed to provide. 范文2 A few months ago, Uncle Ed came up with a good idea and bought a robotic dog for Grandma Agnes. When the lifelike, black-and-white spotted robotic dog was placed before her, Grandma froze. Her eyes widened in shock. Then, a faint smile spread on her wrinkled face. “Snoopy?” she softly murmured, reaching to touch its head. The dog barked gently and wagged its tail. Since then, it has become a constant companion in her life. She took it for walks around the yard, chatting about farm days. Everyone was pleased that Grandma Agnes liked “Snoopy” a lot. It’s heartwarming. She showers the robotic pet with love, as if it were the real Snoopy. The empty look in her eyes has turned into a spark of joy. During visits, we often find her on the porch, the robotic dog at her feet, as she shares childhood stories. This simple yet smart idea has brought back companionship. Such is the meaning of technology, which gives us hope, showing that love and memories can shine through, even with dementia. 【导语】本文以患有老年痴呆的Agnes奶奶为线索展开，主要讲述了奶奶在爱犬Snoopy去世后不断询问狗狗下落，家人为此心力交瘁，后来叔叔买了只机器狗，让奶奶重新获得慰藉的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“几个月前，Ed叔叔想出了一个好主意，给Agnes奶奶买了一只机器狗。”可知，第一段可描写机器狗的外观与功能，以及奶奶见到机器狗时的反应，还有机器狗如何让奶奶的情绪和行为发生积极变化，比如她不再指责邻居，还时常微笑。 ②由第二段首句内容“每个人都很高兴Agnes奶奶非常喜欢“Snoopy”。”可知，第二段可描写作者和爸爸去看望奶奶时的情景，奶奶向她们介绍机器狗，展现她与机器狗的亲密，以及家人对这一变化的感慨，点明科技虽不能治愈疾病，却给奶奶带来了内心的平静。 2.续写线索： Ed叔叔买机器狗——奶奶的反应——机器狗给奶奶带来的变化——作者和爸爸看望奶奶——奶奶介绍“Snoopy”——爸爸的感慨——作者的感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①抱着它：hold it close/clasp it tightly ②轻抚机器人的毛：stroke the robot’s fur/gently pat the robot’s coat ③低声说：whisper/mutter softly 情绪类 ①开心地：cheerfully/happily ②平静：peace/calmness/tranquility 【点睛】【高分句型1】When Grandma touched its head, the robot barked softly and rubbed against her hand.（运用了when引导的时间状语从句） 【高分句型2】Watching Grandma gently stroke the robot’s fur, I realized how something as simple as a machine could reconnect her to lost love and memories.（运用了how引导的宾语从句） 试卷第1页，共3页 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ Unit 4 Living with Technology单元测试 （考试时间：120分钟 试卷满分：150分） 注意事项： 1．本试卷分第Ⅰ卷（选择题）和第Ⅱ卷（非选择题）两部分。答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2．回答第Ⅰ卷时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。写在本试卷上无效。 3．回答第Ⅱ卷时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 4．考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力（共30分，略） 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Some people learn a foreign language because they want to communicate with the local people. Some other people are just curious about foreign cultures. Whatever your reason may be, the best foreign language software around will certainly help you pick up the language in a few weeks. You will be able to speak fluently and understand the language clearly as well. Tell Me More This software is widely used in US schools, and it is believed to be the best foreign language learning software around the world. It offers instructions for learning Arabic, Chinese, Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese and Spanish. However, the software does not come cheap as it costs around $ 250. Talk Now If you are looking for cheaper language learning software, then this is just the suitable choice for you. This software will cost you around $40, and even though it is not as useful as Tell Me More, it is still very good software for the purpose. The disadvantage is that there is a clear lack (缺少) of interactive (互动的) activities for users so it does not result in fluency. Instant Immersion This software supplies learning material for up to 35 different languages, and it is widely considered as the best software for learning Spanish as well. It will cost you around $ 30, and this is a very reasonable price for such a piece of highly recommended and loved language learning software. The learning courses are highly interactive, and the ever present speech recognition (语音识别) feature ensures that you are getting the pronunciation right when you speak. Kid Speak This is a kind of foreign language translation software that you can make use of, and it will cost you around $ 30. So it is safe to say that the level of performance will be similar to that of Talk Now. This software is designed more for children to use for interesting videos. 1．What can we know about learning a language from Paragraph 1? A．Different people have different purposes. B．It is unnecessary to talk with the natives. C．Understanding foreign cultures is the key. D．Using software is the most effective way. 2．What is the disadvantage of Tell Me More? A．It has no interactive activities. B．It costs much more than the others. C．It is short of language learning methods. D．It provides no interesting videos for children. 3．Which of the software best suits users with poor pronunciation? A．Kid Speak. B．Tell Me More. C．Talk Now. D．Instant Immersion. B With the rapid development of artificial intelligence, DeepSeek, a Chinese AI company, has emerged as a pioneer in educational technology. Its latest model, DeepSeek-R1, combines advanced machine learning methods to provide personalized learning solutions for students worldwide. Unlike traditional AI models that rely on pre-programmed answers, DeepSeek-R1 uses reinforcement learning to simulate human reasoning. This allows it to guide students through problem-solving step by step, much like a patient tutor. For example, when a student struggles with a math equation, DeepSeek-R1 doesn’t just give the answer; it breaks down the logic, identifies errors, and encourages critical thinking. The model’s applications extend beyond academics. In language learning, it analyzes students’ pronunciation through AI speech recognition and offers real-time feedback. For teachers, DeepSeek-R1 can generate lesson plans aligned with curriculum standards and even predict students’ learning difficulties based on historical data. Its “adaptive testing” feature creates customized quizzes that adjust difficulty according to individual progress. However, challenges remain. Critics argue that over-reliance on AI might reduce human interaction in education. DeepSeek’s developers address this by emphasizing its role as a “supplement, not a replacement.” As Dr. Li, a DeepSeek researcher, stated, “Our goal is to free teachers from repetitive tasks so they can focus on inspiring creativity.” Looking ahead, DeepSeek aims to integrate virtual reality (VR) into its platform, allowing students to explore historical events or scientific concepts in immersive 3D environments. While ethical debates about AI in education persist, one thing is clear: tools like DeepSeek are reshaping how we learn, blending technology with human wisdom. 4．What makes DeepSeek-R1 different from traditional AI models? A．It uses pre-programmed answers. B．It focuses on memorization techniques. C．It replaces teachers in classrooms. D．It employs reinforcement learning for reasoning. 5．The underlined word “adaptive” in Paragraph 3 most likely means ________. A．fixed B．adjustable C．complicated D．outdated 6．What can be inferred about DeepSeek’s future plans? A．VR technology will enhance interactive learning. B．It will eliminate all classroom activities. C．It prioritizes profit over educational values. D．Teachers will lose their jobs to AI. 7．What is the main purpose of the passage? A．To advertise DeepSeek products. B．To criticize the risks of AI in schools. C．To discuss AI’s role in transforming education. D．To compare different AI models. C The enormous fictional robots of the “Transformers” universe move along the ground in one of two ways. On wheels, when they are shaped like vehicles; on huge manlike feet when they are not. For decades, most real-world robots also fell neatly into these two fictional categories. Then, around 15 years ago, came the realization that other means of movement were possible. “Zoomorphic” robots mined the animal kingdom for inspiration, drawing on evolution’s thousands of years of research and development. Animal-like robots continue to be popular. And yet, says Barbara Mazzolai, an Italian roboticist, the field of robotics has proved far less eager to investigate the other major category of living things—plants. She blames the unwillingness on a misconception about the usefulness of plant behavior: that they are capable of neither motion nor perception. “It’s not true at all,” she says. Dr. Mazzolai and her team recently revealed “FiloBot”, a robot based on climbing plants. Like the real thing, FiloBot is capable of growing, attaching to and winding around supports, and handling an environment in response to external stimuli (刺激). The researchers found that these simple functions were enough to let FiloBot move through a complex, unseen environment, cross gaps and find things to attach to. They believe that this makes it suitable for potential applications including environmental monitoring in hard-to-reach or unknown locations where piloting a robot along an exact course might be impossible, or monitoring disaster sites where an existing structure is unstable. FiloBot is not the only plantlike robot the team is working on. Dr. Mazzolai has been developing “planetoids”, based on roots, since 2012. And in 2021, her team, along with European partners, started developing “I-Seed”, a biodegradable mini-bot that can be moved about by wind and rain and change shape according to humidity. It could be used to carry and distribute real seeds for reforestation, opening up and releasing its load once it hits suitable soil. Dr. Mazzolai hopes that such projects will encourage other roboticists to draw inspiration from plants. 8．What are the two traditional ways for robots to move on the ground according to the text? A．By climbing and winding. B．By using wheels and manlike feet. C．By mining and drawing. D．By attaching and growing. 9．What is the main reason that the field of robotics has been less eager to investigate plant-based robots? A．Plants’ behaviors are enormously hard to imitate in robotics. B．There is a misunderstanding that plants have no motion and perception. C．Animal-based robots are more popular and widespread. D．Robots based on plants are less useful in real-world applications. 10．In which field is Filobot most likely to be applied? A．Urban building checks. B．Crowd control. C．Mall cleaning. D．Earthquake rescue. 11．What’s the main idea of the passage? A．Robotics’ diverse evolution. B．Misconceptions in robotics. C．Plants’ new chapter in robotics. D．Animal-robots’ dominance. D Chinese researchers have recently developed a novel wearable artificial intelligence (AI) system to assist blind individuals with navigation, with the findings published Monday in the journal Nature Machine Intelligence. The system integrates visual, sound, and touch signals, using AI algorithms to scan the surrounding environment. When the wearer approaches obstacles or objects, it sends signals to guide them through movements, object handling, and other visual tasks, thereby enhancing their independence in daily life. For instance, if someone is about to bump into a chair, the system will warn them through voice messages or gentle vibrations (振动), allowing them to avoid danger and handle tasks more easily. This breakthrough in biomedical engineering was led by Gu Leilei, an associate professor at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, in cooperation with researchers from Fudan University, the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, East China Normal University, and other partners. The team innovatively combined advanced AI algorithms with hardware systems. Equipped with a camera for visual data collection, the device processes environmental information through AI, then sends navigation commands via bone-conduction earphones (which don’t block outside sounds) and a soft electronic patch on the wrist. When obstacles or targets are identified, the system generates real-time commands like “advance,” “turn left,” or “grasp” until tasks are completed. During virtual simulations and real-world tests, the system demonstrated superior performance in experiments involving both humanoid robots and visually impaired participants. Humanoid robots using this technology successfully moved through complicated hospital hallways, avoiding obstacles 98.7% of the time. Meanwhile, blind participants completed difficult object-finding tasks with an 89% success rate. Notably, the system’s active learning capability allows continuous performance improvement through user interaction. Clinical evaluations showed a 40% reduction in collision frequency compared to traditional white cane navigation. This innovation not only redefines assistive technology for the visually impaired but also pioneers new applications for human-machine cooperation in medical rehabilitation and smart city infrastructure.

Many young people can’t imagine life without it. 16 In fact, the Internet has been used for a much longer time than most people think. In 1957, the United States was in the middle of the Cold War. The Soviet Union (苏联) had sent up the first satellite (卫星), named Sputnik, into space. This meant the Soviets were ahead of the U. S. in technology. Americans were afraid. 17 One of the ideas was a network (网络) that would let people across the country communicate by using computers. 18 It was first tried out in 1969. For another twenty years, it was used only by scientists who worked with the U. S. government and by some engineers. Then, in 1990, the army of America gave the control of the Internet to the National Science Foundation. 19 The biggest change in the way that people use the Internet came in 1992. For the first time, the Internet was opened to the general public, creating what is now known as the World Wide Web. 20 Today, no one government controls the Internet and it just gets bigger and bigger. It makes our world different. A．The network took more than ten years to develop. B．The Internet then became available to colleges all over the United States and to scientists across Europe. C．Scientists in the army of America started developing ideas for protecting the country. D．People began to be fond of the Internet. E．They didn’t know what to do. F．Soon, people began finding all kinds of different things they could do on the Internet. G．Most older people, on the other hand, think the Internet is only 10 or 15 years old. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项 When 8-year-old Zoeya Khan was tasked with engineering a project that brings a creative solution to the world, she designed something to help her special peers (同龄人). As part of the Primary Engineer MacRobert Medal competition, Khan developed a design for an 21 called The Self Regulation Bracelet (手镯). The bracelet is designed to 22 communication in classrooms for some special students — including young people who have conditions like autism (孤独症), and more. Khan’s design 23 a simplified smartwatch, with a round white face that 24 a button-activated system.

While the 26 may be a fun feature, they do indeed offer a separate option for students to communicate in schools especially when they may otherwise 27 barriers (障碍) in language processing, communication 28 , understanding social cues, managing sensory sensitivities, and more. Khan said she 29 some of her peers struggling to express their emotions and wanted to create something that made this easier. The 30 equipment allows an individual to signal their emotions using a color-coded system, manually selecting light and color settings to 31 communicate without drawing too much attention. Khan was 32 a Bronze Medal at the 2024 Primary Engineer MacRobert Medal competition. While this milestone is surely exciting for Khan as a budding engineer, her design also signals 33 for her peers. The Self Regulation Bracelet was warmly 34 by educators, who saw its potential to transform communication in 35 environments. 21．A．invention B．impression C．engine D．experiment 22．A．provide B．affect C．reduce D．improve 23．A．goes for B．sits around C．looks like D．jumps at 24．A．designs B．contains C．transmits D．monitors 25．A．expect B．describe C．enable D．refuse 26．A．movements B．contents C．styles D．lights 27．A．face B．wish C．hit D．overcome 28．A．sources B．skills C．powers D．systems 29．A．created B．hired C．misunderstood D．observed 30．A．removable B．admirable C．wearable D．allowable 31．A．slowly B．clearly C．toughly D．hardly 32．A．awarded B．considered C．bought D．taught 33．A．view B．hope C．bond D．credit 34．A．completed B．insisted C．received D．required 35．A．familiar B．living C．extreme D．learning 第二节（共10小题；每小题1. 5分, 满分15分） 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入 1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 Window design has undergone a long evolutionary process in the past centuries. We are used to 36 (see) square windows in most building structures. Now, think about airplanes and jetliners, which always have round windows. How strange 37 would be to walk down the passage of a jetliner and fasten your seat belt next to a square window. Actually, square windows 38 (be) the typical form in early commercial airplane industry. However, it was not until the occurrence of several tragic events that engineers started to re-examine 39 airplane window design. In the 1950s, commercial airliners were getting bigger and they also started breaking apart in mid-air. Two of those were de Havilland Comets, which happened in separate events in 1953 and 1954. The sharp edges of the planes’ square windows created natural weak spots. These corners were easily stressed, and then further 40 (weaken) by air pressure at higher altitudes. In the 1950s, aircraft like the de Havilland Comets were flying faster and higher, meaning after multiple flights and 41 (repeat) pressurization, those square windows 42 (basic) broke apart from the pressure. Round windows, on the other hand, can distribute the pressure evenly because they have no corners for pressure to concentrate, 43 (reduce) the probability of cracks. Circular shapes are also stronger and resist shape changes, making them more able to resist the pressure differences 44 the inside and outside of the aircraft. So, next time you’re on a flight, be thankful for the round windows, whether you’re enjoying the view or avoiding it as you don’t want 45 (remind) how high you are off the ground. 第四部分 写作（共两节, 满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 46．假定你是新华中学学生李华，你的英国好友Sansa了解到中国的5G技术世界领先，她对此很感兴趣，给你发电子邮件，希望你给她介绍一下关于5G技术的相关信息。现请你回复该邮件，内容包括： 1. 5G网络在中国刚起步； 2. 5G会催生许多新的机遇和挑战； 注意： 1．写作词数应为80左右； 2．可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第二节（满分25分） 47． 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 Grandma Agnes is ninety-nine years old and still lives in the same house she’s lived in for more than sixty years. She was one of thirteen children raised on a farm, and now, she is rather set in her ways. For twelve years, Grandma Agnes enjoyed the company of her dog, Snoopy. The black-and-white spotted mutt (杂种狗) was a constant presence in her home and yard. As time went on, Grandma Agnes began showing signs of dementia (老年痴呆). My family worked together to keep her living independently yet safe. It was heartbreaking for my dad when he removed the battery from her car to prevent her from driving with her still-valid license. After that, every visit ended with Grandma insisting he buy her a new battery, claiming hers was “dead again.” Dad would no d and promise, though he knew she’d forget. Three years ago, Snoop y passed away. My dad, Aunt Carol, and Uncle Ed tried to help Grandma understand. They held a small funeral in the backyard. Uncle Ed framed a photo of Snoopy with “Rest in Peace” written below and stuck it on the fridge. Yet during daily visits, Grandma still asked about Snoopy, accusing neighbors of stealing him because she “heard his barking.” Caring for someone with dementia is emotionally exhausting. For years, Dad warned me before each visit: “She might not recognize you or your kids.” We’d patiently answer the same questions repeatedly. Grandma Agnes is still stubbornly independent, but she struggles to make sense of the world. Still, she insists on living alone and never stops asking about Snoopy. 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。 A few months ago, Uncle Ed came up with a good idea and bought a robotic dog forGrandma Agnes. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Everyone was pleased that Grandma Agnes liked “Snoopy” a lot. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试卷第1页，共3页 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
