The students represented many fields of study. On average, surveyed students use 2.1 AI tools for their courses. ChatGPT remains the most common tool used, mentioned by 66% of respondents, followed by Grammarly and Microsoft Copilot (each 25%). Here are most common use cases: Despite their wide use of AI tools, students were not confident about their AI knowledge, the survey found. Fifty-eight percent of students reported feeling that they do not have enough AI knowledge and skills, and 48% felt poorly prepared for AI-related work. Notably, 80% of surveyed students said their university’s adoption of AI tools does not fully meet their needs. Students’ top AI needs included: ● Universities should provide training for both teachers and students on the effective use of AI tools (said by 73% of teachers and 72% of students); ●Universities should offer more courses on AI knowledge (72%); ●Universities should include students in choosing which AI tools to use (71%); ●Universities should increase the use of AI in teaching and learning (59%). “With AI being used more widely, universities must now treat it as a basic part of education, not just a tool,” said Alessandro Di Lullo, head of the Digital Education Group and an AI expert at The University of Hong Kong. At the same time, he said, “universities need to consider how to effectively improve AI skills to equip both students and academics with the skills to succeed in an AI-driven world.” 21. What is the most common use of AI among students? A. Search for information. B. Check grammar. C. Summarize documents. D. Create a first draft. 22. What worries most students when using AI tools? A. They do not use AI tools enough. B. They are not ready for jobs that need AI skills. C. They do not know enough about AI. D. Universities do not use AI effectively in teaching. 23. What does Alessandro Di Lullo emphasize regarding AI in education? A. Reducing AI adoption in academic settings. B. Improving AI skills for students and teachers. C. Focusing on AI as an additional tool for teaching. D. Balancing AI use with traditional educational tools. 【答案】21. A 22. C 23. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍2024年全球AI学生调查结果，显示学生平均使用2.1款AI工具（ChatGPT 最常用），但普遍缺乏AI知识与技能，呼吁大学提供相关培训、课程等以满足需求。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据表格中“Search for information(搜索信息)”最高为69%，可知，学生中使用人工智能最常见的用途是查找信息。故选A。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Fifty-eight percent of students reported feeling that they do not have enough AI knowledge and skills, and 48% felt poorly prepared for AI-related work.(58%的学生表示他们觉得自己在人工智能方面的知识和技能不足，而48%的学生则认为自己在与人工智能相关的工作方面准备不足)”可知，他们对人工智能了解不够。故选C。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“At the same time, he said, “universities need to consider how to effectively improve AI skills to equip both students and academics with the skills to succeed in an AI-driven world.”(同时，他说道：“大学需要思考如何有效地提升学生的 AI 技能，以便让师生们具备在人工智能驱动的世界中取得成功的必备技能。”)”可知，亚历山德罗·迪卢洛在谈到教育中的人工智能时强调了提升学生和教师的AI技能。故选B。 B While many 22-year-olds are graduating from college and deciding what’s next for them, Robert Lennox-Hvenekilde has made what he calls “the biggest decision of my life so far” with an unusual buy — 7.5 acres of land in a Colombian jungle. The Copenhagen, Denmark, native made the big decision to invest about $40,000 in three hectares of jungle land, with a dream to build a self-sufficient and environmentally friendly home. “I was actually traveling here when I was 19,” Lennox-Hvenekilde told Newsweek. “I had just turned 19 and was traveling with a friend. We realized that there were a lot of people living in these areas of the world who were maybe not rich in an economic sense, but they just seemed extremely free and to have an extremely high quality of life.” Inspired by this way of living, Lennox-Hvenekilde spent years working full-time jobs in Denmark, determined to save enough money to turn his dream into reality. After months of searching, he found the perfect piece of land and bought it with help from local connections. The land has a natural stream, providing fresh drinking water year-round. It also feeds his crops during dry seasons, a necessity for his fruit farm. He is currently living in a nearby village while he works on constructing a small house on his land. Beyond farming and creating a self-sufficient home, Lennox-Hvenekilde also hopes to be able to give back to parts of the land and attempt rebuilding habitats for the native monkey species. As he builds his new life in the Colombian jungle, Lennox-Hvenekilde remains optimistic about the future. “I have so many plans and dreams and ideas — it’s kind of hard to just put it into words right now, especially since it’s all so new for me. But, right now, the plan is simple: plant a bunch of fruit trees, build the house, and take it one step at a time.” 24. Why did Robert decide to live in a Colombian jungle? A. Because he is poor in an economic sense. B. Because his friend started a business there. C Because he admires a free and high-quality life. D. Because he wanted to become rich by selling fruit. 25. How did Robert make his dream come true? A. He searched for a land for years. B. He worked for years in Denmark. C. His local connections bought the land. D. His parents saved enough money for him. 26. What is Robert’s plan according to paragraph 4? A. To open a nature-friendly place for visitors. B. To invite scientists to study the native monkeys. C. To build a shelter and help local wildlife. D. To sell fresh water from the stream to towns. 27. What is Robert’s attitude toward his new life in the jungle? A. Excited. B. Worried. C. Stubborn. D. Uncaring. 【答案】24. C 25. B 26. C 27. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述22岁的丹麦人Robert Lennox-Hvenekilde受哥伦比亚丛林自由高质生活启发，在丹麦工作多年攒钱后，花费4万美元买下当地7.5英亩土地，计划建造环保自给住宅、经营果园并助力野生动物保护，对未来充满期待。 24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“We realized that there were a lot of people living in these areas of the world who were maybe not rich in an economic sense, but they just seemed extremely free and to have an extremely high quality of life.(我们意识到，在世界上的这些地区，有很多人虽然在经济上并不富裕，但他们却似乎非常自由，而且生活质量极高)”可知，Robert Lennox-Hvenekilde决定在哥伦比亚的丛林中生活是因为他向往自由且高品质的生活。故选C。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Inspired by this way of living, Lennox-Hvenekilde spent years working full-time jobs in Denmark, determined to save enough money to turn his dream into reality.(受到这种生活方式的启发，Robert Lennox-Hvenekilde决定在丹麦从事全职工作，以攒够资金来实现自己的梦想)”可知，Robert Lennox-Hvenekilde在丹麦工作多年积累资金，以实现自己的梦想。故选B。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Beyond farming and creating a self-sufficient home, Lennox-Hvenekilde also hopes to be able to give back to parts of the land and attempt rebuilding habitats for the native monkey species.(除了务农和建造一个自给自足的家之外，Robert Lennox-Hvenekilde还希望能够回馈这片土地，并尝试为当地的猴类物种重建栖息地)”可知，Robert Lennox-Hvenekilde的计划是建造一个庇护所并帮助当地的野生动物。故选C。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“I have so many plans and dreams and ideas — it’s kind of hard to just put it into words right now, especially since it’s all so new for me. But, right now, the plan is simple: plant a bunch of fruit trees, build the house, and take it one step at a time.(我有着众多的计划、梦想和想法——此刻实在难以用言语将其一一表述出来，尤其是因为这一切对我来说都是全新的经历。但此刻，我的计划很简单：种下一批果树，建造房屋，然后一步一步地向前推进)”可知，Robert Lennox-Hvenekilde对他在丛林中的新生活持兴奋态度。故选A。 C A few weeks ago, a popular tweet perfectly described a phenomenon familiar to many of us. The post — a response to someone’s question “What do you hate most about yourself?” — read simply: “I can be really mean when I’m overstimulated.” Judging by the retweets, it seems 55,000 people could relate. If you’ve ever yelled at your parent after a bad day, you may understand the meaning behind the tweet. We’re not exactly at our best in moments like these, but they’re part of the human response to being overstimulated. “Our brain receives information from our senses — sight, touch, smell, sound and taste — so this helps us understand our environment,” said Manahil Riaz, a mental health expert in Texas. “To be overstimulated means that our senses have received a lot of information, and now we are feeling stressed as we’re receiving this information.” “When you’re overstimulated, your prefrontal cortex (前额叶皮质) goes offline,” said Emma Shandy Anway, an expert in California. “This part of your brain helps you think clearly when making decisions,” she noted. “When we’re stressed out, the prefrontal cortex goes from careful and clear-thinking to quick-acting,” Anway said. “In these conditions, your brain’s not thinking about maintaining relationships or effectively solving problems,” Riaz noted. “Instead, it’s frightened.” It’s normal to feel stressed at times. We’re all human, and being a human is hard. “Anytime our nervous system is out of balance, we have to find that way to teach our body that we’re not in danger,” Anway said. She recommends deep breathing through the nose, “When my breath slows down, my nervous system starts to slow down, and that will, in turn, slow my thoughts down.” It’s also important to notice what you give your attention to when you’re feeling overstimulated. Practicing mindfulness skills in the moment — like, say, naming three things around you that are green — is a way to calm down when stressed. Besides, tiny routines like a phone-free morning can stop too much pressure before it starts. 28. What does the popular tweet mainly reveal? A. People hate being mean. B. Pressure causes bad reactions. C. Social media spreads anger. D. Everyone dislikes themselves. 29. According to experts, “overstimulated” means the brain ______.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍“过度刺激”这一普遍现象，解释其含义、对大脑的影响，以及专家提出的深呼吸、正念练习等缓解方法。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“The post — a response to someone’s question “What do you hate most about yourself?” —read simply: “I can be really mean when I’m overstimulated.” Judging by the retweets, it seems 55,000 people could relate. If you’ve ever yelled at your parent after a bad day, you may understand the meaning behind the tweet. (这条推文是对某人“你最讨厌自己什么？”这一问题的回应，内容很简单：“当我过度刺激时，我可能会变得非常刻薄。”从转发量来看，似乎有5.5万人对此有共鸣。如果你曾在糟糕的一天后对父母大喊大叫，你可能会理解这条推文背后的含义。)”可知，这条热门推文揭示了过度刺激（压力的一种表现）会让人产生刻薄、大喊大叫等不良反应。故选B项。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“To be overstimulated means that our senses have received a lot of information, and now we are feeling stressed as we’re receiving this information. (过度刺激意味着我们的感官接收了大量信息，而现在我们在接收这些信息时感到压力。)”可知，专家认为“过度刺激”指大脑接收了过多信息。故选A项。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“She recommends deep breathing through the nose, “When my breath slows down, my nervous system starts to slow down, and that will, in turn, slow my thoughts down.” (她建议用鼻子深呼吸：“当我的呼吸慢下来时，我的神经系统开始慢下来，这反过来也会让我的思绪慢下来。”)”可知，Anway建议在感到过度刺激时进行深呼吸。故选C项。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，第二段解释了“过度刺激”的定义，第三段说明其对大脑的影响，第四、五段给出缓解过度刺激的方法，由此可知，文章围绕“过度刺激”的相关原理及解决办法展开，因此“过度刺激：过程与解决方案”最适合作为标题。故选A项。 D Are big cities overvalued? New economic research suggests so. Judged by their preferences, people love cities. Huge cities such as London and New York are full, with high house prices. China, meanwhile, can claim at least six cities bigger than either of them. Across the world, 25% of people live in cities of over a million, up from just 15% six decades ago. Economists tend to think this is a great development. Cities, they argue, benefit from ‘agglomeration’, the consequence of so many people living close by. For one thing, government and businesses can run more efficiently: size helps everything from public transport to the hiring of staff. For another, finding the next big idea is easier when like-minded people gather together. But have economists overstated the benefits of big cities? That is what a new study by Matthew Turner and David Weil, both of Brown University, suggests. Their analysis applies existing figures of the impact of agglomeration on economic efficiency and the rate of invention to a model of the American economy. This allows the researchers to answer a question: how different would America look if, from 1900 to 2010, no city area had grown to a population of more than 1 million people? According to their work, the answer is ‘not all that much’. Growth would have been slower, but only a bit: the researchers think that America’s total production would have been 8% lower in 2010 than it was in reality. Cities do make residents more efficient, but the size of the city does not matter too much. City supporters may not fully agree with the researchers’ findings, which depend on some guesses. Edward Glaeser of Harvard notes that Turner and Weil believe creating new ideas gets harder over time, as the simplest solutions are used up. This means big cities benefit less than expected from gathering talented people. It’s unclear if this trend will keep happening in the future. AI supporters would surely argue that creating new ideas will probably speed up in the next few years. 32. What do the data in paragraph 1 show? A. City size has hardly changed. B. Rural life has become popular. C. Huge cities are disappearing fast. D. More people move to big cities. 33. What are the benefits of “agglomeration” according to economists? A. Less traffic and lower costs. B. Better services and new ideas. C. Cheaper housing and cleaner air. D. Better education and more friends. 34. What do Turner and Weil’s findings suggest? A. Big cities cut national income greatly. B. Big cities double national total production. C. Big cities hardly improve general growth. D. Big cities widen the income gap hugely. 35. Why does the author mention Glaeser’s opinion? A. To advocate for further city development. B. To restate Turner and Weil’s key arguments. C. To praise the strength of the researchers’ data analysis. D. To explain city supporters’ doubt on the research findings. 【答案】32. D 33. B 34. C 35. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章探讨了大城市是否被高估的问题。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“New economic research suggests so. Judged by their preferences, people love cities. Huge cities such as London and New York are full, with high house prices. China, meanwhile, can claim at least six cities bigger than either of them. Across the world, 25% of people live in cities of over a million, up from just 15% six decades ago.(新的经济研究也表明了这一点。从人们的偏好来看，人们喜欢城市。像伦敦和纽约这样的大城市人口密集，房价高昂。而中国至少有六个城市的人口规模超过了这两个城市。在全球范围内，有25%的人口居住在人口超过一百万的城市里，而六十年前这一比例仅为15%。)”可推断，第一段的数据说明越来越多的人迁入大城市。故选D。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“For one thing, government and businesses can run more efficiently: size helps everything from public transport to the hiring of staff. For another, finding the next big idea is easier when like-minded people gather together.(一方面，政府和企业能够更加高效地运作：规模优势能体现在从公共交通到员工招聘等方方面面。另一方面，志同道合的人聚集在一起时，更容易产生具有重大意义的创新想法。)”可知，聚集效应的好处包括更好的服务（高效运行）和新想法的产生。故选B。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“According to their work, the answer is ‘not all that much’. Growth would have been slower, but only a bit: the researchers think that America’s total production would have been 8% lower in 2010 than it was in reality. Cities do make residents more efficient, but the size of the city does not matter too much. (根据他们的研究结果，答案是“并没有那么大”。经济增长速度会有所放缓，但幅度不会太大：研究人员认为，2010年美国的总产量会比实际情况低8%。城市确实能让居民变得更高效，但城市规模本身的影响并不太大。)”可知，若没有大城市，经济增长仅会略低，因此大城市对整体增长的提升作用有限。故选C。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“City supporters may not fully agree with the researchers’ findings, which depend on some guesses. Edward Glaeser of Harvard notes that Turner and Weil believe creating new ideas gets harder over time, as the simplest solutions are used up. This means big cities benefit less than expected from gathering talented people. It’s unclear if this trend will keep happening in the future. AI supporters would surely argue that creating new ideas will probably speed up in the next few years.(城市支持者们或许不会完全认同研究人员的这些结论，因为这些结论是基于一些推测得出的。哈佛大学的爱德华·格莱泽指出，特纳和韦尔认为随着时间的推移，创造新想法的难度会越来越大，因为最简单的解决方案已经被用完了。这意味着大城市从汇聚优秀人才中获得的益处会低于预期。目前尚不清楚这种趋势未来是否会持续下去。而人工智能的支持者们肯定会认为，在接下来的几年里，创造新想法的速度可能会加快。)”可知，城市支持者可能不完全认同研究结论，爱德华·格莱泽指出研究假设的局限性，因此推断作者引用格莱泽的观点是为了说明支持者对研究结果的质疑。故选D。 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。 When I was a kid, my siblings (兄弟姐妹) and I were not allowed to say “I’m bored.” ___36___ I always assumed my parents made this rule to spare themselves from hearing us complain, but now I wonder if it had deeper historical roots. ___37___ For a long time, it has been viewed as an unpleasant, even wrong feeling. In ancient times, if someone showed the signs of boredom, they were wrong of “acedia,” a feeling of being apart that was seen as rude to the world and its creator. The growth of factories and time-saving devices only strengthened our wish to use time well. ___38___ Many parents try to keep their children from getting bored, either to stop complaints or because they think boredom wastes a chance to get ahead. None of these attitudes toward boredom strike me as healthy or beneficial. We need to move past our fear of boredom and start to see it as an unavoidable, necessary, and even advantageous experience. ___39___ It is a very unpleasant (and short) state that often pushes us to try new ideas. When we take away children’s boredom by giving them instant and shallow activities, we greatly lower their chances of learning new and challenging things well. ___40___ Instead, we should trust that children will find ways to amuse themselves — and maybe even learn to accept boredom as a gift, a chance to think, to create, to discover. As we learn to sit with boredom, we may find that it is not our enemy but our helper, something we need for a life of meaning and invention. A. Boredom, at its best, brings creativity. B. As a culture, we have a bad relationship with boredom. C. Today, we continue to view boredom with strong dislike. D. Schools should add more creative classes to prevent boredom. E. We should not fill every minute of our kids’ days with activities. F. If we were, we were instantly given a task, so we learned to avoid it. G. Modern technology has made boredom a rare experience for children. 【答案】36. F 37. B 38. C 39. A 40. E 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要探讨了人们对无聊的传统负面看法及历史根源，提出应正视无聊，将其视为有价值的体验，反对用活动填满孩子的时间。 【36题详解】 根据前文“When I was a kid, my siblings (兄弟姐妹) and I were not allowed to say “I’m bored.” (我小时候，父母不允许我和兄弟姐妹说“我好无聊”。)”可知，空格处应说明违反这一规定的后果，F选项“If we were, we were instantly given a task, so we learned to avoid it. (如果我们说了，就会立刻被分配一个任务，所以我们学会了避免说这句话。)”中的“If we were”对应前文的“not allowed to say”，解释了“避免说”的原因，符合语境。故选F项。 【37题详解】 根据后文“For a long time, it has been viewed as an unpleasant, even wrong feeling. (长期以来，它一直被视为一种令人不快甚至错误的感觉。)”中的“it”指代“boredom（无聊）”，且后文讲述了古代及工业时代人们对无聊的负面态度，B选项“As a culture, we have a bad relationship with boredom. (作为一种文化，我们与无聊有着糟糕的关系。)”总领本段，概括了人们对无聊的负面认知，符合语境。故选B项。 【38题详解】 根据前文“The growth of factories and time-saving devices only strengthened our wish to use time well. (工厂的发展和省时设备的出现，进一步强化了我们合理利用时间的愿望。)”和后文“Many parents try to keep their children from getting bored, either to stop complaints or because they think boredom wastes a chance to get ahead. (许多父母试图让孩子避免无聊，要么是为了阻止他们抱怨，要么是因为他们认为无聊浪费了取得进步的机会。)”可知，空格处应衔接过去与现在对无聊的态度，C选项“Today, we continue to view boredom with strong dislike. (如今，我们仍然对无聊抱有强烈的反感。)”中的“continue”体现了态度的延续性，承接前文的历史态度，引出后文现代父母的做法，符合语境。故选C项。 【39题详解】 根据前文“We need to move past our fear of boredom and start to see it as an unavoidable, necessary, and even advantageous experience. (我们需要克服对无聊的恐惧，开始将其视为一种不可避免、必要甚至有益的体验。)”和后文“It is a very unpleasant (and short) state that often pushes us to try new ideas. (它是一种非常不愉快（且短暂）的状态，常常促使我们尝试新想法。)”可知，空格处应具体说明无聊的益处，A选项“Boredom, at its best, brings creativity. (无聊在最佳状态下能带来创造力。)”中的“creativity”与后文“try new ideas”相呼应，点明了无聊的优势，符合语境。故选A项。 【40题详解】 根据后文“Instead, we should trust that children will find ways to amuse themselves — and maybe even learn to accept boredom as a gift, a chance to think, to create, to discover. (相反，我们应该相信孩子们会找到自娱自乐的方式——甚至可能学会接受无聊作为一份礼物，一个思考、创造、发现的机会。)”中的“Instead”可知，空格处应提出与后文相反的错误做法，E选项“We should not fill every minute of our kids’ days with activities. (我们不应该把孩子的每一天都用活动填满。)”与后文“相信孩子能自娱自乐”形成对比，符合“Instead”所体现的转折关系，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，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 Perfect timing Tuan Pham was feeling pretty good about himself as he approached the 12-mile mark of the Long Beach Half Marathon in Southern California.

Back in our old house in New Orleans, I had a private garden — a place to sink my hands into soil, cut roses at dusk, and lose myself in the quiet routine of pruning (修剪). Here, on a busy New York sidewalk, I worried my gardening would be reduced to a performance for people hurrying by. The possibility of people bothering me as they walked by made me uneasy. For me, gardening had always been a private and quiet activity. “At least you’ll get to play in the dirt again,” my husband said with a grin, and I decided he was right. Putting on my headphones to discourage possible interruptions from passers-by, I got down to business. Passersby kept their distance at first, but sometimes someone slowed to peer in, drawn by color or scent. When the plants and flowers were finally in place, I stood back on the sidewalk, sweaty and dirty, to admire what I’d done: the splashes of bold color — goldilocks, marigolds, and roses — were indeed a comforting sight. A young man stopped, studied my arrangements, and then looked at me as if he wanted to say something. Slightly annoyed, I took off my headphones. “That’s beautiful,” he finally said. “If you were in Brooklyn, you’d definitely win their flower box contest.” I smiled. His kind words quickly changed my sour attitude. “Really?” I said. “Thank you!” That tiny exchange shifted the day. Later, an older man smiled as he looked at me and my floral creation. “I’d marry you if I wasn’t already married,” he said, giving me a wink. We both laughed. 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。 Paragraph 1 A week later, while I watered the boxes, a woman cried out with genuine delight. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2 Seeing her response, I put down my watering can and cut that rose with my careful scissors. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 A week later, while I watered the boxes, a woman cried out with genuine delight. “I started walking down this street just to see your flowers. They always make my day” Her voice brimmed with sincerity, and her eyes sparkled as they swept over each vibrant bloom. I took off my headphones and nodded a simple, grateful “Thank you.” She paused, then leaned toward a single perfect rose— deep crimson, velvety and full, catching the sun just like the ones I used to cut at dusk in New Orleans. She inhaled its rich perfume, and for a suspended second, the city’s clamor receded behind her quiet awe. Seeing her response, I put down my watering can and cut that rose with my careful scissors. Holding it out, I said, “For you. Thank you for coming to see them… and for loving this one.” She cradled the bloom as if it were sacred. “Oh” she breathed, “I’ll treasure this.” As I waved goodbye to her, a sudden weight on my neck reminded me — my headphones were still looped there, forgotten, heavy, almost comic. They had been my shield, a thin wall between me and the city. But now, I realized I no longer needed them. My flowers became bridges, and the “interruptions” turned into invitations to connect. For the first time since we moved, I welcomed being seen. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了搬到纽约后，作者主动打理公寓前的花箱，起初因习惯园艺的私密性而戴耳机防备路人打扰。但路人对鲜花的真诚夸赞与喜爱，让作者逐渐卸下防备，还剪下玫瑰赠予赏花人。原本的 “隔阂工具”耳机被遗忘，鲜花成了连接作者与城市的桥梁，作者也终于在新环境中乐于被他人看见。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“一周后，当我给花箱浇水时，一位女士发出了一声由衷的欢呼。”可知，第一段可描写路人对鲜花的真诚夸赞与喜爱，让作者逐渐卸下防备。 ②由第二段首句内容“看到她反应后，我放下水壶，用小心翼翼的剪刀剪下了那朵玫瑰”可知，第二段可描写作者剪下玫瑰赠予赏花人以及感悟。 2.续写线索：女士欢呼——夸奖鲜花——作者感谢——剪下玫瑰——送人——作者感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①变成：turn into/transform into ②停下来：pause/stop ③意识到：realize/be aware of 情绪类 ①害怕的：sacred/frightened ②感谢的：grateful/thankful 【点睛】[高分句型1] She cradled the bloom as if it were sacred（运用了虚拟语气） [高分句型2] As I waved goodbye to her, a sudden weight on my neck reminded me — my headphones were still looped there, forgotten, heavy, almost comic.（运用了as引导时间状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025学年第一学期浙里特色联盟期中联考 高二年级英语学科试题 考生须知： 1．本卷共9页满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 2．答题前，在答题卷指定区域填写班级、姓名、考场号、座位号及准考证号并填涂相应数字。 3．所有答案必须写在答题纸上，写在试卷上无效。 4．考试结束后，只需上交答题纸。 选择题部分 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 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。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What will Ariel probably do next?

The students represented many fields of study. On average, surveyed students use 2.1 AI tools for their courses. ChatGPT remains the most common tool used, mentioned by 66% of respondents, followed by Grammarly and Microsoft Copilot (each 25%). Here are most common use cases: Despite their wide use of AI tools, students were not confident about their AI knowledge, the survey found. Fifty-eight percent of students reported feeling that they do not have enough AI knowledge and skills, and 48% felt poorly prepared for AI-related work. Notably, 80% of surveyed students said their university’s adoption of AI tools does not fully meet their needs. Students’ top AI needs included: ● Universities should provide training for both teachers and students on the effective use of AI tools (said by 73% of teachers and 72% of students); ●Universities should offer more courses on AI knowledge (72%); ●Universities should include students in choosing which AI tools to use (71%); ●Universities should increase the use of AI in teaching and learning (59%). “With AI being used more widely, universities must now treat it as a basic part of education, not just a tool,” said Alessandro Di Lullo, head of the Digital Education Group and an AI expert at The University of Hong Kong. At the same time, he said, “universities need to consider how to effectively improve AI skills to equip both students and academics with the skills to succeed in an AI-driven world.” 21. What is the most common use of AI among students? A. Search for information. B. Check grammar. C. Summarize documents. D. Create a first draft. 22. What worries most students when using AI tools? A. They do not use AI tools enough. B. They are not ready for jobs that need AI skills. C. They do not know enough about AI. D. Universities do not use AI effectively in teaching. 23. What does Alessandro Di Lullo emphasize regarding AI in education? A. Reducing AI adoption in academic settings. B. Improving AI skills for students and teachers. C. Focusing on AI as an additional tool for teaching. D. Balancing AI use with traditional educational tools. B While many 22-year-olds are graduating from college and deciding what’s next for them, Robert Lennox-Hvenekilde has made what he calls “the biggest decision of my life so far” with an unusual buy — 7.5 acres of land in a Colombian jungle. The Copenhagen, Denmark, native made the big decision to invest about $40,000 in three hectares of jungle land, with a dream to build a self-sufficient and environmentally friendly home. “I was actually traveling here when I was 19,” Lennox-Hvenekilde told Newsweek. “I had just turned 19 and was traveling with a friend. We realized that there were a lot of people living in these areas of the world who were maybe not rich in an economic sense, but they just seemed extremely free and to have an extremely high quality of life.” Inspired by this way of living, Lennox-Hvenekilde spent years working full-time jobs in Denmark, determined to save enough money to turn his dream into reality. After months of searching, he found the perfect piece of land and bought it with help from local connections. The land has a natural stream, providing fresh drinking water year-round. It also feeds his crops during dry seasons, a necessity for his fruit farm. He is currently living in a nearby village while he works on constructing a small house on his land. Beyond farming and creating a self-sufficient home, Lennox-Hvenekilde also hopes to be able to give back to parts of the land and attempt rebuilding habitats for the native monkey species. As he builds his new life in the Colombian jungle, Lennox-Hvenekilde remains optimistic about the future. “I have so many plans and dreams and ideas — it’s kind of hard to just put it into words right now, especially since it’s all so new for me. But, right now, the plan is simple: plant a bunch of fruit trees, build the house, and take it one step at a time.” 24. Why did Robert decide to live in a Colombian jungle? A. Because he is poor in an economic sense. B. Because his friend started a business there. C. Because he admires a free and high-quality life. D. Because he wanted to become rich by selling fruit. 25. How did Robert make his dream come true? A He searched for a land for years. B. He worked for years in Denmark. C. His local connections bought the land. D. His parents saved enough money for him. 26. What is Robert’s plan according to paragraph 4? A. To open a nature-friendly place for visitors. B. To invite scientists to study the native monkeys. C. To build a shelter and help local wildlife. D. To sell fresh water from the stream to towns. 27. What is Robert’s attitude toward his new life in the jungle? A. Excited. B. Worried. C. Stubborn. D. Uncaring. C A few weeks ago, a popular tweet perfectly described a phenomenon familiar to many of us. The post — a response to someone’s question “What do you hate most about yourself?” — read simply: “I can be really mean when I’m overstimulated.” Judging by the retweets, it seems 55,000 people could relate. If you’ve ever yelled at your parent after a bad day, you may understand the meaning behind the tweet. We’re not exactly at our best in moments like these, but they’re part of the human response to being overstimulated. “Our brain receives information from our senses — sight, touch, smell, sound and taste — so this helps us understand our environment,” said Manahil Riaz, a mental health expert in Texas. “To be overstimulated means that our senses have received a lot of information, and now we are feeling stressed as we’re receiving this information.” “When you’re overstimulated, your prefrontal cortex (前额叶皮质) goes offline,” said Emma Shandy Anway, an expert in California. “This part of your brain helps you think clearly when making decisions,” she noted. “When we’re stressed out, the prefrontal cortex goes from careful and clear-thinking to quick-acting,” Anway said. “In these conditions, your brain’s not thinking about maintaining relationships or effectively solving problems,” Riaz noted. “Instead, it’s frightened.” It’s normal to feel stressed at times. We’re all human, and being a human is hard. “Anytime our nervous system is out of balance, we have to find that way to teach our body that we’re not in danger,” Anway said. She recommends deep breathing through the nose, “When my breath slows down, my nervous system starts to slow down, and that will, in turn, slow my thoughts down.” It’s also important to notice what you give your attention to when you’re feeling overstimulated. Practicing mindfulness skills in the moment — like, say, naming three things around you that are green — is a way to calm down when stressed. Besides, tiny routines like a phone-free morning can stop too much pressure before it starts. 28. What does the popular tweet mainly reveal? A. People hate being mean. B. Pressure causes bad reactions. C. Social media spreads anger. D. Everyone dislikes themselves. 29. According to experts, “overstimulated” means the brain ______. A. receives too much information B. processes data too slowly C. stops receiving any messages D. makes reasonable decisions 30. What is Anway’s suggestion when we feel overstimulated? A. Slowing our body down. B. Using the phone. C. Taking a deep breath. D. Ignoring the feeling. 31. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Overstimulation: Process and Solutions B. Overstimulation: Just ignore it and Move On C. Overstimulation: Tiny Routines Can Help D. Overstimulation: Name Things to deal with it D Are big cities overvalued? New economic research suggests so. Judged by their preferences, people love cities. Huge cities such as London and New York are full, with high house prices. China, meanwhile, can claim at least six cities bigger than either of them. Across the world, 25% of people live in cities of over a million, up from just 15% six decades ago. Economists tend to think this is a great development. Cities, they argue, benefit from ‘agglomeration’, the consequence of so many people living close by. For one thing, government and businesses can run more efficiently: size helps everything from public transport to the hiring of staff. For another, finding the next big idea is easier when like-minded people gather together. But have economists overstated the benefits of big cities? That is what a new study by Matthew Turner and David Weil, both of Brown University, suggests. Their analysis applies existing figures of the impact of agglomeration on economic efficiency and the rate of invention to a model of the American economy. This allows the researchers to answer a question: how different would America look if, from 1900 to 2010, no city area had grown to a population of more than 1 million people? According to their work, the answer is ‘not all that much’. Growth would have been slower, but only a bit: the researchers think that America’s total production would have been 8% lower in 2010 than it was in reality. Cities do make residents more efficient, but the size of the city does not matter too much. City supporters may not fully agree with the researchers’ findings, which depend on some guesses. Edward Glaeser of Harvard notes that Turner and Weil believe creating new ideas gets harder over time, as the simplest solutions are used up. This means big cities benefit less than expected from gathering talented people. It’s unclear if this trend will keep happening in the future. AI supporters would surely argue that creating new ideas will probably speed up in the next few years. 32. What do the data in paragraph 1 show? A. City size has hardly changed. B. Rural life has become popular. C. Huge cities are disappearing fast. D. More people move to big cities. 33. What are the benefits of “agglomeration” according to economists? A. Less traffic and lower costs. B Better services and new ideas. C. Cheaper housing and cleaner air. D. Better education and more friends. 34. What do Turner and Weil’s findings suggest? A. Big cities cut national income greatly. B. Big cities double national total production. C. Big cities hardly improve general growth. D. Big cities widen the income gap hugely. 35. Why does the author mention Glaeser’s opinion? A. To advocate for further city development. B. To restate Turner and Weil’s key arguments. C. To praise the strength of the researchers’ data analysis. D. To explain city supporters’ doubt on the research findings. 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。 When I was a kid, my siblings (兄弟姐妹) and I were not allowed to say “I’m bored.” ___36___ I always assumed my parents made this rule to spare themselves from hearing us complain, but now I wonder if it had deeper historical roots. ___37___ For a long time, it has been viewed as an unpleasant, even wrong feeling. In ancient times, if someone showed the signs of boredom, they were wrong of “acedia,” a feeling of being apart that was seen as rude to the world and its creator. The growth of factories and time-saving devices only strengthened our wish to use time well. ___38___ Many parents try to keep their children from getting bored, either to stop complaints or because they think boredom wastes a chance to get ahead. None of these attitudes toward boredom strike me as healthy or beneficial. We need to move past our fear of boredom and start to see it as an unavoidable, necessary, and even advantageous experience. ___39___ It is a very unpleasant (and short) state that often pushes us to try new ideas. When we take away children’s boredom by giving them instant and shallow activities, we greatly lower their chances of learning new and challenging things well. ___40___ Instead, we should trust that children will find ways to amuse themselves — and maybe even learn to accept boredom as a gift, a chance to think, to create, to discover. As we learn to sit with boredom, we may find that it is not our enemy but our helper, something we need for a life of meaning and invention. A. Boredom, at its best, brings creativity. B. As a culture, we have a bad relationship with boredom. C. Today, we continue to view boredom with strong dislike. D. Schools should add more creative classes to prevent boredom. E. We should not fill every minute of our kids’ days with activities. F. If we were, we were instantly given a task, so we learned to avoid it. G. Modern technology has made boredom a rare experience for children. 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四个选项中选出最佳选项。 Perfect timing Tuan Pham was feeling pretty good about himself as he approached the 12-mile mark of the Long Beach Half Marathon in Southern California.

Back in our old house in New Orleans, I had a private garden — a place to sink my hands into soil, cut roses at dusk, and lose myself in the quiet routine of pruning (修剪). Here, on a busy New York sidewalk, I worried my gardening would be reduced to a performance for people hurrying by. The possibility of people bothering me as they walked by made me uneasy. For me, gardening had always been a private and quiet activity. “At least you’ll get to play in the dirt again,” my husband said with a grin, and I decided he was right. Putting on my headphones to discourage possible interruptions from passers-by, I got down to business. Passersby kept their distance at first, but sometimes someone slowed to peer in, drawn by color or scent. When the plants and flowers were finally in place, I stood back on the sidewalk, sweaty and dirty, to admire what I’d done: the splashes of bold color — goldilocks, marigolds, and roses — were indeed a comforting sight. A young man stopped, studied my arrangements, and then looked at me as if he wanted to say something. Slightly annoyed, I took off my headphones. “That’s beautiful,” he finally said. “If you were in Brooklyn, you’d definitely win their flower box contest.” I smiled. His kind words quickly changed my sour attitude. “Really?” I said. “Thank you!” That tiny exchange shifted the day. Later, an older man smiled as he looked at me and my floral creation. “I’d marry you if I wasn’t already married,” he said, giving me a wink. We both laughed. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150个左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1 A week later, while I watered the boxes, a woman cried out with genuine delight. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2 Seeing her response, I put down my watering can and cut that rose with my careful scissors. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
