Blount, Anthony Iannarino This groundbreaking hands-on guide marries their brilliant sales strategies, used by millions of salespeople, with the transformative power of AI. Drawing from cutting-edge research and real-world applications, the authors demonstrate AI’s potential to help you build deeper relationships and winning solutions that give you a leg-up over the competition. Brave New Words Salman Khan In Brave New Words, Salman Khan examines the ins and outs of these cutting-edge tools and how they will revolutionize the way we learn and teach. Khan emphasizes that embracing AI in education is not about replacing human interaction but enhancing it with customized and accessible learning tools that encourage creative problem-solving skills and prepare students for an increasingly digital world. The Worlds I See Fei-Fei Li The Worlds I See is a story of science in the first person, documenting one of the century’s defining moments from the inside. It provides an interesting story of a scientist at work and a thrillingly clear explanation of what artificial intelligence actually is — and how it came to be. This book is a testament (证明) not only to the passion required for even the most technical scholarship but also to the curiosity forever at its heart. 2084 and AI Revolution John C. Lennox Will technology change what it means to be human? We all wonder where we’re headed. Since the questions posed by AI affected most of us, they demand answers. 2084 and AI Revolution has been written to challenge and arouse the curiosity of all readers. Whatever your world view, Lennox provides clear information and credible answers that will bring you real hope for the future of humanity. 1. What does The AI Age focus on? A. Making predictions. B. Exploring answers. C. Offering approaches. D. Discovering problems. 2. What does Salman Khan emphasize in his book? A. The possibility of AI replacing human. B. The necessity of reducing interaction.

Once, pretending to be a potential buyer, he dressed up in a sport coat and met a seller. Pavlik took note of the bike’s make, model and marking, confirming it was the one he was hunting. He asked to take it for a test ride. The seller wanted some collateral (抵押物). “Do I look like the kind of guy that steals bikes?” Pavlik recalls asking the man. Then he just pedaled off. An hour later, the seller texted him, “I guess you're not coming back?” Pavlik is part of an unusual army: amateur detectives who find stolen bikes and return them to their owners. As bike theft becomes more profitable, grassroots efforts to crack down on thieves are springing up nationwide. The volunteers say recovering bikes can be strangely fun and addictive. Pavlik, who is 51, works for Twin Cities Stolen Bikes, which has a Facebook page with 11,000 members. The volunteer group reunites owners with their wheels, often by tracking stolen bikes for sale on Facebook Marketplace, OfferUP, Craiglist or eBay, and then facing suspected thieves. Pavlik likes helping victims almost as much as punishing thieves. For Pavlik, recovering someone’s bikes is a big deal. “It’s how they get to work, and lack of transportation leads to losing a job,” he says. “So it’s helping those folks where it really matters.” Bike theft is big business. Close to 2 million bikes are stolen each year in North America, costing cyclists nearly $1 billion, compared with $500 million 10 years ago. “It’s been bananas lately.” says Bryan Hance, who helps run Bike Index, where cyclists can register their bikes online for free and report them stolen. More than 16,000 stolen bikes were reported last year versus 11,000 in 2019. Hance says the thefts aren’t top priority for police, creating space for volunteers. Police say they take bike theft seriously, though manpower to tackle it is a challenge. 4. What did Pavlik do according to the first two paragraphs? A. He played a joke on the thief. B. He bought a bike from the thief. C. He helped the thief in a friendly way. D. He recovered a stolen bike strategically. 5. What can we infer about Mike Pavlik? A. He has a sense of justice. B. He likes making fun of others. C. He is a professional detective. D. He is humorous and outgoing. 6. What does the author try to stress in paragraph 5? A. The role of transportation. B. The significance of Pavlik’s work. C. The importance of having a job. D. The consequence of stealing bikes. 7. What does the underlined part in paragraph 7 mean? A. Things have been crazy. B. The situation has improved. C. Great changes have taken place. D. New policies have been adopted. C Superhighways of vessels (血管) beneath our skin transport blood and nutrients. These natural pathways expand like tree branches to help our body move food and oxygen to our organs. While our bodies naturally produce vessels, bioengineers are now crafting them in labs, using an unexpected material: ice. The idea was inspired by the ice magic in the Disney movie Frozen, says Burak Ozdoganlar, a mechanical engineer at Carnegie Mellon University, “Frozen’s ice queen commands ice and snow — maybe we can too.” To make the vessels, the engineer first needed a template (模板) to build the tissue. “Originally, we were trying to do this with wax (蜡),” Ozdoganlar says. “But wax proved too soft. And it’s not necessarily biocompatible, or suitable for use in the body.” Then they thought of Elsa’s magic. Ice seemed like a good alternative for many reasons. It costs little and is readily available. And most importantly, since it’s nonpoisonous, the body won’t reject it. Printing the ice template is simple. Engineers program the desired shape into a 3-D printer, which then drops water onto a -35℃ surface to freeze it instantly. This process is repeated until the vessel’s shape is complete. Overall, it takes less than 30 seconds. Then the template is wrapped in gelatin, which becomes solid under ultraviolet light as the ice melts, leaving behind realistic-looking blood channels. The team has tested the channels with lining cells of blood vessels. Those cells survived for two weeks, a promising sign for future transplantation into humans. The new vessels might be tested with a drug being developed for use in people. Such tests could show how your body might react to the drug. “This is really a game-changer,” says Ozdoganlar. “The new research is quite interesting and exciting,” says Warren Grayson, a biomedical engineer at Johns Hopkins University. “But it also has limitations. You can see that all these structures are pretty small. Their size is limited by the need for extreme cold. Larger structures would not stay cold enough due to heat transfer. This method may not transform the tissue engineering field, but it does provide another perspective for creating structures.” 8. What key advantage does ice offer over wax for the engineers’ project? A It’s cost-effective. B. It’s harmless to our body. C. It’s easy to obtain. D. It’s environmentally friendly. 9. What happens to the ice template during the process of vessel making? A. It solidifies the encasing gelatin. B. It is reshaped after its completion. C It becomes a part of the final vessel. D. It melts away with the channels remaining. 10. What does Warren Grayson think of the ice-vessel approach? A. It marks a dramatic change. B. It provides a new outlook. C. It serves as a practical solution. D. It represents a notable innovation. 11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. From Frozen to Functional: Crafting Vessels from Ice B. Vessel Building: Challenges and Advances in Materials C. 3-D Printing: A Game Changer for Biological Engineering D. Bringing Frozen to Life: Impacting Blood Flow with Ice D Like many you might have puzzled over contemporary art, such as a giant folk sculpture. In her book Get the Picture, journalist Bianca Bosker addresses the age-old question “What is art?” She goes to great lengths to find the answer, offering a participatory journey into the art world and revealing its spiritual rewards. Bosker sets out to develop what art students call an “Eye”, the ability to separate the “good” art from the “bad”. To do this, she dives deep into the art community, working as a gallery assistant, art-fair seller, studio helper and museum security guard to examine art from different angles. She discovers that the art world often excludes those who can’t afford to go to art school or create passion projects. Practitioners (专业人员) often take on multiple jobs to make ends meet; many eventually quit from burnout. Yet, she also reveals the fundamental joy that art can bring to both creators and viewers. Bosker’s exploration continues with neuroaesthetics (神经美学), the application of neuroscience to study the perception of art. Researchers have demonstrated that seeing is often secondary to believing—a “filter of expectation” in our brain twists the raw data stream of light that hits our eyes. This filter allows us to ignore certain visual details to rapidly process our disorderly environment. This is why we know a white vase next to the window is still white, even as natural light transforms its exact color to sunset golden or moonlight gray throughout the day. One function of art, Bosker writes, is to remove this filter to re-examine the world with renewed wonder. Art has a therapeutic (治疗的) quality, a fact that’s seized upon by doctors who recommend patients visit art museums. Removing that filter can also help doctors themselves. Studies have shown that medical trainees who take an art-based course perform more integrative physical examinations and read human facial expressions better than those who don’t. In the end, readers don’t get a complete answer to humankind’s strong desire for art. Bosker instead offers her own interpretation: Art is a way to find beauty and heighten our appreciation for life. In exposing the blind faith in the “Eye”, Bosker argues that art is everywhere and can be anything, as long as we’re open to letting what we see move us. By the last page, you’ll be forced to revisit that folk sculpture and see the artwork with fresh eyes. 12. How did Bosker gain her understanding of art? A. By pursuing a career in art. B. By fitting into the art circles. C. By registering for art classes. D. By learning from practitioners. 13. What can be inferred about the “filter of expectation” in our brains? A. It enables us to see clearly in chaos. B. It shapes the idea of what beauty is. C. It leads to a subjective view on things. D. It makes us more sensitive to colors. 14. What is a basis for art’s therapeutic quality? A. Art enriches people’s spiritual world. B. Art can bring changes in viewpoints. C. Art has proved to be an effective cure. D. Art has been widely adopted by doctors. 15. What is Bosker’s attitude towards the faith in “Eye”? A Challenging B. Approving C. Dismissive D. Objective 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能填入空白处的最佳选项；选项中有两项为多余选项。 For many of us, the days are filled with a million small interruptions. And this is true even on our days off. Maybe you’ve taken a call at the beach, texted your boss from the grocery store or emailed a co-worker while on a picnic with your family. ____16____ But there is a real cost to these interruptions, and there are smart strategies we can all take to better protect our time. In one study, researchers recruited (召集) parents who were visiting a science museum with their kids. Some parents were told to check their phones as much as possible; others were told to check their phones as little as possible. After the visit, parents who used their phones reported that the experience was significantly less meaningful. ____17____ ____18____ Companies lose 32 days of productivity each year to employee depression, which is often caused by the stress and burnout of our always-on culture. Despite knowing better, I, too, have found myself focusing on "urgent work" over important life moments. Now is our opportunity to create a new culture that respects time. And the way to make this change is through small steps that we can take right now. ____19____ When we do have time off, we need to find ways in which we can enjoy the present moment, as opposed to seeing it as an unproductive barrier to our work. Another strategy is to negotiate for more time on adjustable deadlines to prevent work from affecting your personal life. And don’t worry too much about the reputation. ____20____ Once you discover the impact that these changes can have, you’ll feel empowered to demand that others respect and accommodate your approach to time. Maybe they’ll even feel inspired to piece together the broken moments of their lives, too. A. They also felt much lonelier. B. You need to prioritize urgent work. C. One specific strategy is to redefine rest. D. There’s difficulty in corporate management. E. Quality truly is the measure that matters most. F. We’ve convinced ourselves that these behaviors are no big deal. G. These constant interruptions come at a cost to organizations, too. 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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Two years ago, Truett Hanes (USA) wrapped his hands around the bar in his gym, and lifted himself up and down repeatedly until he completed 8,100 pull-ups in 24 hours.

But as he said, “The pain of regret far ____32____ the pain of my hands.” Truett wants other people to ____33____ this lesson from his inspiring attempt. “____34____ showing up every day and giving your best effort will never be something you regret,” he said. “Stay the course — that’s the biggest lesson you can learn from me.

Emma was skipping rope on the playground, surrounded by several classmates. She was quite good at it. The rope spun (旋转) quickly as she jumped swiftly. When time was up, the counter showed 220 skips. Feeling proud, Emma flashed a victory smile to the crowd. Just then, the bell rang — class was over. It was time to give her answer to Ms. Wilson. That morning, Ms. Wilson had asked her if she would like to take on the task of the class bulletin board (板报) for the upcoming competition. It was Lily who usually handled it, but she had taken sick leave, and someone else needed to step in. It never occurred to Emma that Ms. Wilson would think of her. She responded nervously, insisting that her handwriting was terrible. But Ms. Wilson reassured her, saying she believed in her ability and encouraged her to think it over and that they would talk about it again after school. Now, walking towards the teachers' office, Emma felt anxious. The thought of her poor handwriting being put up on the wall for everyone to comment on made her stomach turn. No. Never would she let that happen. She quickened her pace and ran across the sports ground. Emma was about to pass the sandpit (沙坑) when someone caught her attention. It was Tim from class 5. She thought that Tim had never been good at long jump, but he just kept practicing it on and on. Out of curiosity, she went over to ask what he was doing. Tim explained that no one else in his class had signed up for the long-jump event, and without a participant, their class wouldn’t get any points in the school sports meeting. So when the headteacher asked if anyone would give it a try, he volunteered. Emma reminded him that he wasn’t good at it, but Tim simply said that he knew that — and that it wasn’t about being the best, but about trying and doing his part for his class. Then he went back to practicing. What a similar dilemma they were both in! 注意： 1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Standing there, Emma watched Tim practicing hard with great patience. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Emma walked into the teachers' office with a determined look on her face. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 武汉市部分重点中学2025—2026学年度上学期期中联考 高二英语 命题单位：武汉市第六中学 审题单位：圆创教育研究中心 武汉市武钢三中 本试卷共10页，满分150分。考试用时120分钟。考试时间：2025年11月10日下午14:00—16:00 ★祝考试顺利★ 注意事项： 1.答题前，先将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在试卷和答题卡上，并将准考证号条形码贴在答题卡上的指定位置。 2.选择题的作答：每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。写在试卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 3.非选择题的作答：用黑色签字笔直接答在答题卡上对应的答题区域内。写在试卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 4.考试结束后，请将本试卷和答题卡一并上交。 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 例：How much is the shirt?

(《我看见的世界》是以第一人称讲述的科学故事，从内部记录了这个世纪的标志性时刻之一。)”可知，该书是一位科学家的自传，既是作者的个人史，也是一部人工智能发展史。这是本书和其他几本书的区别之处。故选A项。 B Mike Pavlik sees a lot while recovering stolen bikes around Minneapolis. Once, pretending to be a potential buyer, he dressed up in a sport coat and met a seller. Pavlik took note of the bike’s make, model and marking, confirming it was the one he was hunting. He asked to take it for a test ride. The seller wanted some collateral (抵押物). “Do I look like the kind of guy that steals bikes?” Pavlik recalls asking the man. Then he just pedaled off. An hour later, the seller texted him, “I guess you're not coming back?” Pavlik is part of an unusual army: amateur detectives who find stolen bikes and return them to their owners. As bike theft becomes more profitable, grassroots efforts to crack down on thieves are springing up nationwide. The volunteers say recovering bikes can be strangely fun and addictive. Pavlik, who is 51, works for Twin Cities Stolen Bikes, which has a Facebook page with 11,000 members. The volunteer group reunites owners with their wheels, often by tracking stolen bikes for sale on Facebook Marketplace, OfferUP, Craiglist or eBay, and then facing suspected thieves. Pavlik likes helping victims almost as much as punishing thieves. For Pavlik, recovering someone’s bikes is a big deal. “It’s how they get to work, and lack of transportation leads to losing a job,” he says. “So it’s helping those folks where it really matters.” Bike theft is big business. Close to 2 million bikes are stolen each year in North America, costing cyclists nearly $1 billion, compared with $500 million 10 years ago. “It’s been bananas lately.” says Bryan Hance, who helps run Bike Index, where cyclists can register their bikes online for free and report them stolen. More than 16,000 stolen bikes were reported last year versus 11,000 in 2019. Hance says the thefts aren’t top priority for police, creating space for volunteers. Police say they take bike theft seriously, though manpower to tackle it is a challenge. 4. What did Pavlik do according to the first two paragraphs? A. He played a joke on the thief. B. He bought a bike from the thief. C. He helped the thief in a friendly way. D. He recovered a stolen bike strategically. 5. What can we infer about Mike Pavlik? A. He has a sense of justice. B. He likes making fun of others. C. He is a professional detective. D. He is humorous and outgoing. 6. What does the author try to stress in paragraph 5? A. The role of transportation. B. The significance of Pavlik’s work. C. The importance of having a job. D. The consequence of stealing bikes. 7. What does the underlined part in paragraph 7 mean? A. Things have been crazy. B. The situation has improved. C. Great changes have taken place. D. New policies have been adopted. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. B 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了业余侦探迈克·帕夫利克找回被盗自行车并归还失主事迹，以及自行车盗窃现象的严重性和民间志愿者的努力。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Once, pretending to be a potential buyer, he dressed up in a sport coat and met a seller. Pavlik took note of the bike’s make, model and marking, confirming it was the one he was hunting. He asked to take it for a test ride. The seller wanted some collateral (抵押物).(有一次，他伪装成潜在买家，穿上一件运动外套去见卖家。帕夫利克记下了这辆自行车的品牌、型号和标识，确认这就是他要找的那辆。他提出要试骑一下。卖家要求他提供一些抵押物)”以及第二段““Do I look like the kind of guy that steals bikes?” Pavlik recalls asking the man. Then he just pedaled off. An hour later, the seller texted him, “I guess you're not coming back?”(“我看起来像是那种会偷自行车的人吗？”帕夫利克回忆起自己当时这样问那个人。随后，他径直骑车离开了。一个小时后，卖家发短信给他：“我猜你是不会回来了吧？”)”可知，帕夫利克假装成潜在买家，与卖家见面，确认自行车是失窃的那辆后，以试骑为由，没有给抵押物就骑走了，最后把自行车归还给了失主，即他策略性地找回了一辆被盗的自行车。故选D。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Pavlik, who is 51, works for Twin Cities Stolen Bikes, which has a Facebook page with 11,000 members. The volunteer group reunites owners with their wheels, often by tracking stolen bikes for sale on Facebook Marketplace, OfferUP, Craiglist or eBay, and then facing suspected thieves.(现年51岁的帕夫利克在“双城失窃自行车”组织工作，该组织在脸书上有一个拥有1.1万名成员的页面。这个志愿者团体经常通过追踪在Facebook Marketplace、OfferUP、Craiglist或eBay等平台上出售的被盗自行车，与疑似盗贼交涉，从而让失主找回他们的自行车)”以及第五段“Pavlik likes helping victims almost as much as punishing thieves. For Pavlik, recovering someone’s bikes is a big deal. “It’s how they get to work, and lack of transportation leads to losing a job,” he says. “So it’s helping those folks where it really matters.”(帕夫利克喜欢帮助受害者，其程度几乎不亚于惩治盗贼。对帕夫利克而言，帮人找回自行车是件大事。他说：“自行车是他们上班的交通工具，缺乏交通工具会导致失业。”“所以，这是在真正要紧的时候帮了那些人的大忙。”)”可知，帕夫利克是一名志愿者，他帮助失主找回被盗的自行车，认为找回自行车对失主来说很重要，因为自行车是他们上班的交通工具，由此可推断出他很有正义感。故选A。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“For Pavlik, recovering someone’s bikes is a big deal. “It’s how they get to work, and lack of transportation leads to losing a job,” he says. “So it’s helping those folks where it really matters.”(对帕夫利克而言，帮人找回自行车是件大事。他说：“自行车是他们上班的交通工具，缺乏交通工具会导致失业。”“所以，这是在真正要紧的时候帮了那些人的大忙。”)”可知，对于帕夫利克来说，找回某人的自行车是一件大事，因为自行车是他们上班的交通工具，缺乏交通工具会导致失业，所以这是真正帮助到那些需要帮助的人，作者在此段强调了Pavlik工作的意义。故选B。 【7题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第六段“Bike theft is big business. Close to 2 million bikes are stolen each year in North America, costing cyclists nearly $1 billion, compared with $500 million 10 years ago.(自行车盗窃是一笔大生意。在北美，每年有近200万辆自行车被盗，给骑自行车的人造成近10亿美元的损失，而10年前这一数字为5亿美元)”以及第七段“More than 16,000 stolen bikes were reported last year versus 11,000 in 2019.(去年报告了16000多辆被盗自行车，而2019年为11000辆)”可知，自行车盗窃是一项大生意，每年在北美有近200万辆自行车被盗，去年报告的被盗自行车数量比2019年多，由此可推断出自行车盗窃情况很严重，所以“It’s been bananas lately.”意思是“最近事情很疯狂”，即自行车盗窃情况很严重。故选A。 C Superhighways of vessels (血管) beneath our skin transport blood and nutrients. These natural pathways expand like tree branches to help our body move food and oxygen to our organs. While our bodies naturally produce vessels, bioengineers are now crafting them in labs, using an unexpected material: ice. The idea was inspired by the ice magic in the Disney movie Frozen, says Burak Ozdoganlar, a mechanical engineer at Carnegie Mellon University, “Frozen’s ice queen commands ice and snow — maybe we can too.” To make the vessels, the engineer first needed a template (模板) to build the tissue. “Originally, we were trying to do this with wax (蜡),” Ozdoganlar says. “But wax proved too soft. And it’s not necessarily biocompatible, or suitable for use in the body.” Then they thought of Elsa’s magic. Ice seemed like a good alternative for many reasons. It costs little and is readily available. And most importantly, since it’s nonpoisonous, the body won’t reject it. Printing the ice template is simple. Engineers program the desired shape into a 3-D printer, which then drops water onto a -35℃ surface to freeze it instantly. This process is repeated until the vessel’s shape is complete. Overall, it takes less than 30 seconds. Then the template is wrapped in gelatin, which becomes solid under ultraviolet light as the ice melts, leaving behind realistic-looking blood channels. The team has tested the channels with lining cells of blood vessels. Those cells survived for two weeks a promising sign for future transplantation into humans. The new vessels might be tested with a drug being developed for use in people. Such tests could show how your body might react to the drug. “This is really a game-changer,” says Ozdoganlar. “The new research is quite interesting and exciting,” says Warren Grayson, a biomedical engineer at Johns Hopkins University. “But it also has limitations. You can see that all these structures are pretty small. Their size is limited by the need for extreme cold. Larger structures would not stay cold enough due to heat transfer. This method may not transform the tissue engineering field, but it does provide another perspective for creating structures.” 8. What key advantage does ice offer over wax for the engineers’ project? A. It’s cost-effective. B. It’s harmless to our body. C. It’s easy to obtain. D. It’s environmentally friendly. 9. What happens to the ice template during the process of vessel making? A. It solidifies the encasing gelatin. B. It is reshaped after its completion. C. It becomes a part of the final vessel. D. It melts away with the channels remaining. 10. What does Warren Grayson think of the ice-vessel approach? A. It marks a dramatic change. B. It provides a new outlook. C. It serves as a practical solution. D. It represents a notable innovation. 11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. From Frozen to Functional: Crafting Vessels from Ice B. Vessel Building: Challenges and Advances in Materials C. 3-D Printing: A Game Changer for Biological Engineering D. Bringing Frozen to Life: Impacting Blood Flow with Ice 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了生物工程师受《冰雪奇缘》启发，利用冰来制作血管模板并测试其效果。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中““Originally, we were trying to do this with wax (蜡),” Ozdoganlar says. “But wax proved too soft. And it’s not necessarily biocompatible, or suitable for use in the body.” Then they thought of Elsa’s magic. Ice seemed like a good alternative for many reasons. It costs little and is readily available. And most importantly, since it’s nonpoisonous, the body won’t reject it.(Ozdoganlar说：“最初，我们尝试用蜡来做。但蜡太软了，而且它不一定具有生物相容性，即不一定适合在体内使用。”后来，他们想到了艾莎的魔法。出于多种原因，冰似乎是个不错的替代品。它成本低廉，且容易获取。最重要的是，由于冰无毒，身体不会排斥它。)”可知，冰相对于蜡的关键优势在于它对人体无害。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Then the template is wrapped in gelatin, which becomes solid under ultraviolet light as the ice melts, leaving behind realistic-looking blood channels.(然后，模板被包裹在明胶中，明胶在紫外线下凝固，而冰融化，留下看起来逼真的血液通道。)”可知，在制作血管的过程中，冰模板会融化，留下通道。故选D。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段Warren Grayson说的话中“This method may not transform the tissue engineering field, but it does provide another perspective for creating structures.(这种方法可能不会改变组织工程领域，但它确实为创造结构提供了另一种视角。)”可知，Warren Grayson认为冰血管方法提供了一种新的视角。故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据第一段中“While our bodies naturally produce vessels, bioengineers are now crafting them in labs, using an unexpected material: ice.(虽然我们的身体自然会产生血管，但生物工程师现在正在实验室里用一种意想不到的材料——冰来制作它们。)”可知，文章主要讲述了生物工程师受《冰雪奇缘》启发，利用冰来制作血管模板并测试其效果。本文的最佳标题是“From Frozen to Functional: Crafting Vessels from Ice(从《冰雪奇缘》到实用：用冰制作血管)”。故选A。 D Like many, you might have puzzled over contemporary art, such as a giant folk sculpture. In her book Get the Picture, journalist Bianca Bosker addresses the age-old question “What is art?” She goes to great lengths to find the answer, offering a participatory journey into the art world and revealing its spiritual rewards. Bosker sets out to develop what art students call an “Eye”, the ability to separate the “good” art from the “bad”. To do this, she dives deep into the art community, working as a gallery assistant, art-fair seller, studio helper and museum security guard to examine art from different angles. She discovers that the art world often excludes those who can’t afford to go to art school or create passion projects. Practitioners (专业人员) often take on multiple jobs to make ends meet; many eventually quit from burnout. Yet, she also reveals the fundamental joy that art can bring to both creators and viewers. Bosker’s exploration continues with neuroaesthetics (神经美学), the application of neuroscience to study the perception of art. Researchers have demonstrated that seeing is often secondary to believing—a “filter of expectation” in our brain twists the raw data stream of light that hits our eyes. This filter allows us to ignore certain visual details to rapidly process our disorderly environment. This is why we know a white vase next to the window is still white, even as natural light transforms its exact color to sunset golden or moonlight gray throughout the day. One function of art, Bosker writes, is to remove this filter to re-examine the world with renewed wonder. Art has a therapeutic (治疗的) quality, a fact that’s seized upon by doctors who recommend patients visit art museums. Removing that filter can also help doctors themselves. Studies have shown that medical trainees who take an art-based course perform more integrative physical examinations and read human facial expressions better than those who don’t. In the end, readers don’t get a complete answer to humankind’s strong desire for art. Bosker instead offers her own interpretation: Art is a way to find beauty and heighten our appreciation for life. In exposing the blind faith in the “Eye”, Bosker argues that art is everywhere and can be anything, as long as we’re open to letting what we see move us. By the last page, you’ll be forced to revisit that folk sculpture and see the artwork with fresh eyes. 12. How did Bosker gain her understanding of art? A. By pursuing a career in art. B. By fitting into the art circles. C. By registering for art classes. D. By learning from practitioners. 13. What can be inferred about the “filter of expectation” in our brains? A. It enables us to see clearly in chaos. B. It shapes the idea of what beauty is. C. It leads to a subjective view on things. D. It makes us more sensitive to colors. 14. What is a basis for art’s therapeutic quality? A. Art enriches people’s spiritual world. B. Art can bring changes in viewpoints. C. Art has proved to be an effective cure. D. Art has been widely adopted by doctors. 15. What is Bosker’s attitude towards the faith in “Eye”? A. Challenging B. Approving C. Dismissive D. Objective 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍记者比安卡·博斯克在著作《Get the Picture》中对“艺术是什么”的探索，包括她的研究方式、神经美学相关发现及对艺术的独特解读。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“To do this, she dives deep into the art community, working as a gallery assistant, art-fair seller, studio helper and museum security guard to examine art from different angles.(为了做到这一点，她深入艺术圈，担任画廊助理、艺术博览会销售人员、工作室助手和博物馆保安，从不同角度审视艺术。)”可知，博斯克通过融入艺术圈来加深对艺术的理解。故选B项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Researchers have demonstrated that seeing is often secondary to believing—a “filter of expectation” in our brain twists the raw data stream of light that hits our eyes. This filter allows us to ignore certain visual details to rapidly process our disorderly environment. This is why we know a white vase next to the window is still white, even as natural light transforms its exact color to sunset golden or moonlight gray throughout the day.(研究人员已证实，很多时候“信”比“见”更重要 —— 我们大脑中的“期望滤镜”会扭曲进入眼睛的原始光数据流。这种滤镜能让我们忽略某些视觉细节，从而快速处理混乱的周遭环境。这就是为什么窗边的白色花瓶，即便在一天当中，自然光会将它的具体颜色变成落日般的金色或月光下的灰色，我们仍会认为它是白色的。)”可知，“期望滤镜”会筛选和扭曲信息，使我们对事物的看法带有主观性。故选C项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“One function of art, Bosker writes, is to remove this filter to re-examine the world with renewed wonder. Art has a therapeutic quality(博斯克写道，艺术的一个功能是移除这种滤镜，以全新的惊奇感重新审视世界。艺术具有治疗作用)”可知，艺术的治疗效果源于它能改变人们的视角，让人们摆脱固有滤镜的束缚。故选B项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“In exposing the blind faith in the “Eye”, Bosker argues that art is everywhere and can be anything, as long as we're open to letting what we see move us.(在揭露对“艺术眼光”的盲目信仰时，博斯克认为艺术无处不在，可以是任何东西，只要我们愿意让所看到的事物打动我们。)”可知，博斯克对“艺术眼光”的盲目信仰持质疑和挑战态度。故选A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能填入空白处的最佳选项；选项中有两项为多余选项。 For many of us, the days are filled with a million small interruptions. And this is true even on our days off. Maybe you’ve taken a call at the beach, texted your boss from the grocery store or emailed a co-worker while on a picnic with your family. ____16____ But there is a real cost to these interruptions, and there are smart strategies we can all take to better protect our time. In one study, researchers recruited (召集) parents who were visiting a science museum with their kids. Some parents were told to check their phones as much as possible; others were told to check their phones as little as possible. After the visit, parents who used their phones reported that the experience was significantly less meaningful. ____17____ ____18____ Companies lose 32 days of productivity each year to employee depression, which is often caused by the stress and burnout of our always-on culture. Despite knowing better, I, too, have found myself focusing on "urgent work" over important life moments. Now is our opportunity to create a new culture that respects time. And the way to make this change is through small steps that we can take right now. ____19____ When we do have time off, we need to find ways in which we can enjoy the present moment, as opposed to seeing it as an unproductive barrier to our work. Another strategy is to negotiate for more time on adjustable deadlines to prevent work from affecting your personal life. And don’t worry too much about the reputation. ____20____ Once you discover the impact that these changes can have, you’ll feel empowered to demand that others respect and accommodate your approach to time. Maybe they’ll even feel inspired to piece together the broken moments of their lives, too. A. They also felt much lonelier. B. You need to prioritize urgent work. C. One specific strategy is to redefine rest. D. There’s difficulty in corporate management. E. Quality truly is the measure that matters most. F. We’ve convinced ourselves that these behaviors are no big deal. G. These constant interruptions come at a cost to organizations, too. 【答案】16. F 17. A 18. G 19. C 20. E 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要指出日常生活中频繁的干扰会带来实际代价，通过研究说明其对个人体验的影响，还提到对企业的影响，并给出保护时间的具体策略。 【16题详解】 根据前文“Maybe you’ve taken a call at the beach, texted your boss from the grocery store or emailed a co-worker while on a picnic with your family.(也许你在海滩接了电话，在杂货店给老板发了短信，或者在和家人野餐时给同事发了邮件。)”以及后文“But there is a real cost to these interruptions, and there are smart strategies we can all take to better protect our time.(但这些干扰确实会带来代价，我们都可以采取一些明智的策略来更好地保护自己的时间。)”可知，前文列举了日常中被干扰的行为，后文转折提到干扰有代价，此空应衔接两者，说明人们对这些行为的固有看法。F选项“We’ve convinced ourselves that these behaviors are no big deal(我们已经说服自己这些行为没什么大不了的)”既承接前文的具体干扰行为，又与后文的“but”形成转折，符合语境。故选F项。 【17题详解】 根据前文“In one study, researchers recruited (召集) parents who were visiting a science museum with their kids. Some parents were told to check their phones as much as possible; others were told to check their phones as little as possible. After the visit, parents who used their phones reported that the experience was significantly less meaningful.(在一项研究中，研究人员招募了一些带孩子参观科学博物馆的家长。一些家长被要求尽可能多地查看手机；另一些则被要求尽可能少地查看手机。参观结束后，使用手机的家长表示，这次体验的意义明显降低。)”可知，此处应补充使用手机的家长在体验中还有其他负面感受。A选项“They also felt much lonelier(他们也感到更加孤独)”中的“also”承接前文“体验意义降低”，进一步说明手机干扰带来的负面影响，符合语境。故选A项。 【18题详解】 根据后文“Companies lose 32 days of productivity each year to employee depression, which is often caused by the stress and burnout of our always-on culture.(由于员工抑郁，企业每年会损失32天的生产力，而员工抑郁通常是由我们这种随时在线的文化带来的压力和倦怠造成的。)”可知，后文讲述的是干扰对企业的影响，此空应引出这一话题。G选项“These constant interruptions come at a cost to organizations, too(这些持续的干扰也会给组织带来代价)”直接点出干扰对组织（企业）的影响，与后文的企业损失内容相呼应，符合语境。故选G项。 【19题详解】 根据前文“And the way to make this change is through small steps that we can take right now.(而实现这一改变的方法是通过我们现在就能采取的小步骤。)”以及后文“When we do have time off, we need to find ways in which we can enjoy the present moment, as opposed to seeing it as an unproductive barrier to our work. Another strategy is to negotiate for more time on adjustable deadlines to prevent work from affecting your personal life.(当我们确实有假期时，我们需要找到享受当下的方式，而不是把它看作是工作中毫无成效的障碍。另一个策略是在可调整的截止日期上争取更多时间，以防止工作影响你的个人生活。)”可知，此处应介绍其中一个具体策略，且与“休息”相关。C选项“One specific strategy is to redefine rest(一个具体的策略是重新定义休息)”既承接前文的“小步骤”，又引出后文对休息方式的具体说明，且与下一句的“Another strategy”形成并列，符合语境。故选C项。 【20题详解】 根据前文“Another strategy is to negotiate for more time on adjustable deadlines to prevent work from affecting your personal life. And don’t worry too much about the reputation.(另一个策略是在可调整的截止日期上争取更多时间，以防止工作影响你的个人生活。而且不要太担心名声。)”可知，此处应说明不用在意名声的原因，即真正重要的是什么。E选项“Quality truly is the measure that matters most(质量才是真正最重要的衡量标准)”解释了不必纠结于名声，强调质量的重要性，符合语境。故选E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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Two years ago, Truett Hanes (USA) wrapped his hands around the bar in his gym, and lifted himself up and down repeatedly until he completed 8,100 pull-ups in 24 hours.

Emma was skipping rope on the playground, surrounded by several classmates. She was quite good at it. The rope spun (旋转) quickly as she jumped swiftly. When time was up, the counter showed 220 skips. Feeling proud, Emma flashed a victory smile to the crowd. Just then, the bell rang — class was over. It was time to give her answer to Ms. Wilson. That morning, Ms. Wilson had asked her if she would like to take on the task of the class bulletin board (板报) for the upcoming competition. It was Lily who usually handled it, but she had taken sick leave, and someone else needed to step in. It never occurred to Emma that Ms. Wilson would think of her. She responded nervously, insisting that her handwriting was terrible. But Ms. Wilson reassured her, saying she believed in her ability and encouraged her to think it over and that they would talk about it again after school. Now, walking towards the teachers' office, Emma felt anxious. The thought of her poor handwriting being put up on the wall for everyone to comment on made her stomach turn. No. Never would she let that happen. She quickened her pace and ran across the sports ground. Emma was about to pass the sandpit (沙坑) when someone caught her attention. It was Tim from class 5. She thought that Tim had never been good at long jump, but he just kept practicing it on and on. Out of curiosity, she went over to ask what he was doing. Tim explained that no one else in his class had signed up for the long-jump event, and without a participant, their class wouldn’t get any points in the school sports meeting. So when the headteacher asked if anyone would give it a try, he volunteered. Emma reminded him that he wasn’t good at it, but Tim simply said that he knew that — and that it wasn’t about being the best, but about trying and doing his part for his class. Then he went back to practicing. What a similar dilemma they were both in! 注意： 1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Standing there, Emma watched Tim practicing hard with great patience. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Emma walked into the teachers' office with a determined look on her face. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文： Standing there Emma watched Tim practicing patiently and hard. When she saw Tim start and jump again and again, and get up immediately even if he fell, Emma felt a touch in her heart, and the thought of refusing began to waver. Tim was not good at long jump, but he was willing to try for his class. Even though her handwriting was poor, why couldn’t she try to overcome it? She realized that Ms. Wilson’s trust was an opportunity, and she shouldn’t back down because of a little flaw. She decided to change her mind and accept the task of the bulletin board. Emma walked into the teachers’ office with a determined look on her face. Seeing Ms. Wilson, Emma took a deep breath and said firmly, “Ms. Wilson, I’ve thought it through. I’m willing to take charge of the class bulletin board!” Ms. Wilson showed a relieved smile. Emma then explained that it was Tim practicing long jump for his class that made her understand that what matters is trying, not being perfect. She also took the initiative to say that she would spend more time practicing writing to ensure that the bulletin board was well done and live up to the teacher’s trust. Ms. Wilson praised her growth repeatedly. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了Emma在体育课后，面临是否接手班级板报任务的选择。她原本因担心自己的字迹不佳而犹豫不决，但在看到同学Tim为了班级荣誉而努力练习跳远后，受到了启发，决定勇敢接受挑战的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“Emma站在那里，耐心而努力地看着Tim练习”可知，第一段可描写Emma看到Tim努力练习跳远后的内心变化，她从最初的犹豫和不安，逐渐转变为受到鼓舞和启发，意识到参与和努力的重要性，并决定改变主意，接受班级板报的任务。 ②由第二段首句内容“Emma带着坚定的表情走进教师办公室”可知，第二段可描写Emma向Ms. Wilson表明决定、解释转变的原因，以及老师的回应与支持。 2.续写线索： 看到Tim练习——内心受到鼓舞——决定接受挑战——走进办公室——告诉Ms. Wilson决定——承诺努力练习——得到鼓励和肯定 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①刷掉：brush off/sweep away/wipe off ②调整：adjust/modify ③承担：take on/shoulder/undertake 情绪类 ①信任：trust/confidence/reliance ②坚定的：firmly/determinedly 【点睛】【高分句型1】Even though her handwriting was poor, why couldn’t she try to overcome it?（运用了even though引导的让步状语从句） 【高分句型2】She also took the initiative to say that she would spend more time practicing writing to ensure that the bulletin board was well done and live up to the teacher’s trust.（运用that引导的宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
