He wanted to win the local garden club’s “Yard of the Month” award. But he didn’t have the money to buy new trees, so he began by using bushes and shrubs (矮树苗) that a local nursery had thrown away — that looked dead to most people. Because he worked days at a can factory, Jordan often tended his garden at night. Neighbors got used to seeing one little headlight as Jordan stood on a ladder, cutting and shaping his steadily growing bushes. Gradually, the shrubs took on different shapes. Jordan then began planting trees and using zip ties, coat hangers, PVC pipe, and even his wife’s old stockings to achieve the forms he wanted. “He has a way of manipulating plants to do things he wants them to do by training, bending, wiring, and clipping,” says a neighbor. “And the plants seem to bend to his will.” Many professional gardeners are amazed by what Jordan has been able to achieve. “The garden itself was created from lack of knowledge,” says Jordan in his booming bass voice, “because I didn’t know you weren’t supposed to do this with plants. For one time in my life, ignorance paid off.” Jordan’s attention to detail and his willingness to work hard have made him a local hero. He was the first African American to win “Yard of the Month” honor from the local garden club. And more recognition followed: articles in major newspapers and appearances on well-known TV shows. Jordan’s garden now includes about 400 species of plants and 150 shrubs in different shapes. On his front yard, four-foot-tall letters filled with bright red begonias (秋海棠) spell Love, Peace, and Goodwill. These are the values Jordan lives by. Jordan opens his private garden to everyone, including those going through a tough time financially. A box for donations can be found in his garden, but giving is optional. Jordan welcomes people who can’t afford to pay. He understands; he’s been there. 4. What does the underlined word “manipulating” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Controlling. B. Expecting. C. Planting. D. Using. 5. Which of the following words can best describe Jordan? A. Hard-working and shy. B. Creative and generous. C. Helpful and knowledgeable. D. Positive and humorous. 6. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. Tickets are expensive for visitors. B. Jordan used to be poor. C. The garden is only open to plant lovers. D. Jordan lives on donation from others. 7. What does Jordan’s experience of building the garden mainly tell us? A. A good beginning is half done. B. Actions speak louder than words. C. Where there is a will, there is a way. D. Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst. C Do you often use the words “tapestry”, “delve” or “testament” in English? Many of us would say no. These words aren’t among the “Top 500 spoken words” — a list of the most common English words. However, these words are becoming more common in some written content, as a study in 2024 found that five percent of all articles published on a research site used the word “delve”. In 2022, it was less than one percent. Since ChatGPT was released to the public in November 2022, we’ve seen that AI favors certain words. Why does ChatGPT prefer these words? The answer is actually very human. While ChatGPT seems to think for itself, what it really does is analyze a very large amount of human-generated (人工生成的) information, and use the data to spit out answers to our questions. It doesn’t actually understand what it’s telling us. The process of rating AI responses, as part of training the software, is called “reinforcement(强化)learning from human feedback,” and this provides the first clue about why ChatGPT favors certain words. The answer lies in the background of the human trainers themselves. It’s not cheap to employ a lot of testers to rate thousands of responses from AI. So, big companies hire lower-income countries to do these jobs, often places where English is not the first language. One such country that offers cheap labor is Nigeria, and in Nigerian English, “delve” is a common word in professional settings. So, when Nigerian testers tell AI which responses sound natural, their own language preferences come through. As AI-generated information becomes more common, will it also affect the way we speak to each other? In some ways, AI has already left its mark. Of course, language is a living thing that always updates itself, shaped by current events, technology, and the media we use. As AI-generated media spreads, it is possible, even likely that AI will affect the development of our own vocabulary. 8 What does the underlined sentence mean? A. AI’s answers are directly written by humans. B. AI is specially designed to think like humans. C. AI depends on humans to develop its language. D. AI understands human language independently. 9. Why does AI favor certain uncommon words? A. Spoken English has been used to train AI. B. AI tries to have impact on human language. C. Companies develop strange language models. D. Non-native English speakers work as AI trainers. 10. Which statement does the last paragraph support? A. AI plays an important role in language development. B. New technology reduces the number of English words. C. Language pushes the development of AI-generated media. D. The use of uncommon words makes communication harder. 11. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. Will ChatGPT Target a New Market? B. Will AI Change the Way We Speak? C. Reinforcement Learning: Key to AI’s Power D. Uncommon English Words: Usage in Daily Life D Evolution (进化) can perform amazing changes; today’s flying songbirds evolved from the wingless, earthbound dinosaurs that wandered millions of years ago. But some organisms seem to be unchanged — in other words, escape natural selection. The coelacanth, a modern-day fish, is nearly the same as its 410-million-year-old fossils (化石). Scientists have long wondered how these species (物种) do so. It has been argued that natural selection keeps some species unchanged by selecting for moderate (中等) qualities (stabilizing selection) rather than selecting for more extreme qualities that would cause a species to change (directional selection). But a study published in the National Academy of Sciences USA goes against this idea, showing that evolution constantly favors different qualities in seemingly unchanging animals to improve short-term survival. In the long term, though, “all that evolution cancels out and leads to no change”, says James Stroud, the study’s lead writer. Stroud and his teammates studied four types of lizard (蜥蜴), all relatively unchanged for 20 million years. The researchers caught members of these populations in the wild every six months for three years. They measured each lizard’s head size, leg length, weight and height, as well as the size of its sticky toes, noting which individuals survived. Stroud expected to observe stabilizing selection at work protecting moderate qualities. Instead he saw clearer evidence of directional selection; some lizards with unique characteristics, such as stickier toes, survived better. The study offers “a good explanation for why we see what we think is stabilizing selection”, says Tadashi Fukami, a scientist studying evolution at Stanford University. Many new qualities are evolving in the short term, but they don’t provide an important advantage over the long term. In other words, species staying unchanged may simply have found the best possible set of qualities for lasting success in their environment. So what happens when the lizards’ environment changes greatly? To help answer this bigger question, Stroud is still making trips to visit the lizards. 12. Why does the author mention the “coelacanth” in paragraph 1? A. To show its long history of changes. B. To add evidence to natural selection. C. To prove the great changes in species. D. To give an example of unchanged species. 13. What does the second paragraph mainly talk about? A. Scientists’ confusion about species evolution. B. The difference between two types of selection. C. The process of stabilizing selection in evolution. D. A belief about how some species remain unchanged. 14. How did Stroud carry out his research? A. By doing lab tests. B. By tracking research objects. C. By studying lizard fossils. D. By comparing color changes in lizards. 15. What will Stroud probably do in the future? A. Make trips to visit lizard professionals. B. Summarize average features of lizards. C. Examine lizards under extreme conditions. D. Record the best sets of qualities. 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。 Think back to the last time you shopped for fruits and vegetables.

He wanted to win the local garden club’s “Yard of the Month” award. But he didn’t have the money to buy new trees, so he began by using bushes and shrubs (矮树苗) that a local nursery had thrown away — that looked dead to most people. Because he worked days at a can factory, Jordan often tended his garden at night. Neighbors got used to seeing one little headlight as Jordan stood on a ladder, cutting and shaping his steadily growing bushes. Gradually, the shrubs took on different shapes. Jordan then began planting trees and using zip ties, coat hangers, PVC pipe, and even his wife’s old stockings to achieve the forms he wanted. “He has a way of manipulating plants to do things he wants them to do by training, bending, wiring, and clipping,” says a neighbor. “And the plants seem to bend to his will.” Many professional gardeners are amazed by what Jordan has been able to achieve. “The garden itself was created from lack of knowledge,” says Jordan in his booming bass voice, “because I didn’t know you weren’t supposed to do this with plants. For one time in my life, ignorance paid off.” Jordan’s attention to detail and his willingness to work hard have made him a local hero. He was the first African American to win “Yard of the Month” honor from the local garden club. And more recognition followed: articles in major newspapers and appearances on well-known TV shows. Jordan’s garden now includes about 400 species of plants and 150 shrubs in different shapes. On his front yard, four-foot-tall letters filled with bright red begonias (秋海棠) spell Love, Peace, and Goodwill. These are the values Jordan lives by. Jordan opens his private garden to everyone, including those going through a tough time financially. A box for donations can be found in his garden, but giving is optional. Jordan welcomes people who can’t afford to pay. He understands; he’s been there. 4. What does the underlined word “manipulating” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Controlling. B. Expecting. C. Planting. D. Using. 5. Which of the following words can best describe Jordan? A. Hard-working and shy. B. Creative and generous. C. Helpful and knowledgeable. D. Positive and humorous. 6. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. Tickets are expensive for visitors. B. Jordan used to be poor. C. The garden is only open to plant lovers. D. Jordan lives on donation from others. 7. What does Jordan’s experience of building the garden mainly tell us? A. A good beginning is half done. B. Actions speak louder than words. C. Where there is a will, there is a way. D. Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst. 【答案】4 A 5. B 6. B 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述乔丹利用废弃植物，凭借努力和创意打造花园获奖，且无偿开放的故事。 【4题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中的“He has a way of manipulating plants to do things he wants them to do by training, bending, wiring, and clipping.(他有一种通过训练、弯曲、布线和修剪来manipulating植物做他想让它们做的事情的方法)”可知，他可以通过一系列手段让植物按自己的意愿生长，即控制植物的生长。由此猜测划线词意为“控制，操控”，与control同义。故选A项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“But he didn’t have the money to buy new trees, so he began by using bushes and shrubs (矮树苗) that a local nursery had thrown away — that looked dead to most people.(但他没有钱买新树，所以他开始用当地一家苗圃所扔掉的灌木和矮树苗——在大多数人看来，这些灌木和矮树苗已经死了)”和第二段中的“Jordan then began planting trees and using zip ties, coat hangers, PVC pipe, and even his wife’s old stockings to achieve the forms he wanted.(然后，乔丹开始植树，并使用束带、衣架、PVC管，甚至他妻子的旧袜子来达到他想要的形状)”可知，乔丹利用废弃材料打造花园，体现创意；根据最后一段中的“Jordan opens his private garden to everyone, including those going through a tough time financially. A box for donations can be found in his garden, but giving is optional. Jordan welcomes people who can’t afford to pay. (乔丹向所有人开放他的私人花园，包括那些正在经历经济困难时期的人。在他的花园里可以找到一个捐赠箱，但捐赠是可选择的。乔丹欢迎那些付不起钱的人)”可知，他无偿开放花园，体现慷慨。故选B项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Jordan welcomes people who can’t afford to pay. He understands; he’s been there.(乔丹欢迎那些付不起钱的人。他理解，他也曾经历过)”可推知，乔丹过去很穷。故选B项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段中“Jordan’ attention to detail and his willingness to work hard have made him a local hero.(乔丹对细节的关注和他努力工作的意愿使他成为当地的英雄)”并结合全文内容可知，乔丹是通过自己的坚持和认真建造花园并无偿开放。由此推知，他的建造花园的经历告诉我们“有志者事竟成”。故选C项。 C Do you often use the words “tapestry”, “delve” or “testament” in English? Many of us would say no. These words aren’t among the “Top 500 spoken words” — a list of the most common English words. However, these words are becoming more common in some written content, as a study in 2024 found that five percent of all articles published on a research site used the word “delve”. In 2022, it was less than one percent. Since ChatGPT was released to the public in November 2022, we’ve seen that AI favors certain words. Why does ChatGPT prefer these words? The answer is actually very human. While ChatGPT seems to think for itself, what it really does is analyze a very large amount of human-generated (人工生成的) information, and use the data to spit out answers to our questions. It doesn’t actually understand what it’s telling us. The process of rating AI responses, as part of training the software, is called “reinforcement(强化)learning from human feedback,” and this provides the first clue about why ChatGPT favors certain words. The answer lies in the background of the human trainers themselves. It’s not cheap to employ a lot of testers to rate thousands of responses from AI. So, big companies hire lower-income countries to do these jobs, often places where English is not the first language. One such country that offers cheap labor is Nigeria, and in Nigerian English, “delve” is a common word in professional settings. So, when Nigerian testers tell AI which responses sound natural, their own language preferences come through. As AI-generated information becomes more common, will it also affect the way we speak to each other? In some ways, AI has already left its mark. Of course, language is a living thing that always updates itself, shaped by current events, technology, and the media we use. As AI-generated media spreads, it is possible, even likely that AI will affect the development of our own vocabulary. 8. What does the underlined sentence mean? A. AI’s answers are directly written by humans. B. AI is specially designed to think like humans. C. AI depends on humans to develop its language. D. AI understands human language independently. 9. Why does AI favor certain uncommon words? A. Spoken English has been used to train AI. B. AI tries to have impact on human language. C. Companies develop strange language models. D. Non-native English speakers work as AI trainers. 10. Which statement does the last paragraph support? A. AI plays an important role in language development. B. New technology reduces the number of English words. C. Language pushes the development of AI-generated media. D. The use of uncommon words makes communication harder. 11. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. Will ChatGPT Target a New Market? B. Will AI Change the Way We Speak? C. Reinforcement Learning: Key to AI’s Power D. Uncommon English Words: Usage in Daily Life 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. A 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍ChatGPT等AI偏好某些不常用英语词汇的原因，以及AI生成内容可能对人类语言表达和词汇发展产生的影响。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中的“While ChatGPT seems to think for itself, what it really does is analyze a very large amount of human-generated information, and use the data to spit out answers to our questions. It doesn’t actually understand what it’s telling us.(虽然ChatGPT看起来能独立思考，但它实际所做的是分析大量人工生成的信息，并利用这些数据来给出我们问题的答案。它其实并不理解自己在说什么。)”可知，AI的语言能力依赖人类生成的数据，核心是依靠人类发展其语言，划线句表达的正是这一含义。故选C项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“So, big companies hire lower-income countries to do these jobs, often places where English is not the first language. One such country that offers cheap labor is Nigeria, and in Nigerian English, “delve” is a common word in professional settings.(因此，大公司会雇佣低收入国家的人来做这些工作，这些地方的人通常不以英语为母语。尼日利亚就是这样一个提供廉价劳动力的国家，在尼日利亚英语中，“delve”在专业场景中是常用词。)”可知，AI偏好某些不常用词汇，是因为非英语母语者担任了AI训练师，他们的语言偏好影响了AI。故选D项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“As AI-generated media spreads, it is possible, even likely that AI will affect the development of our own vocabulary.(随着AI生成的媒体不断传播，AI有可能甚至很可能会影响我们自身词汇的发展。)”可知，该段支持“AI在语言发展中扮演重要角色”这一观点。故选A项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是最后一段中的“As AI-generated information becomes more common, will it also affect the way we speak to each other?(随着AI生成的信息变得越来越普遍，它也会影响我们彼此的交流方式吗？)”可知，文章围绕AI对人类语言的影响展开，核心探讨AI是否会改变我们的说话方式，这一主题最能概括全文，适合作为最佳标题。故选B项。 D Evolution (进化) can perform amazing changes; today’s flying songbirds evolved from the wingless, earthbound dinosaurs that wandered millions of years ago. But some organisms seem to be unchanged — in other words, escape natural selection. The coelacanth, a modern-day fish, is nearly the same as its 410-million-year-old fossils (化石). Scientists have long wondered how these species (物种) do so. It has been argued that natural selection keeps some species unchanged by selecting for moderate (中等) qualities (stabilizing selection) rather than selecting for more extreme qualities that would cause a species to change (directional selection). But a study published in the National Academy of Sciences USA goes against this idea, showing that evolution constantly favors different qualities in seemingly unchanging animals to improve short-term survival. In the long term, though, “all that evolution cancels out and leads to no change”, says James Stroud, the study’s lead writer. Stroud and his teammates studied four types of lizard (蜥蜴), all relatively unchanged for 20 million years. The researchers caught members of these populations in the wild every six months for three years. They measured each lizard’s head size, leg length, weight and height, as well as the size of its sticky toes, noting which individuals survived. Stroud expected to observe stabilizing selection at work protecting moderate qualities. Instead he saw clearer evidence of directional selection; some lizards with unique characteristics, such as stickier toes, survived better. The study offers “a good explanation for why we see what we think is stabilizing selection”, says Tadashi Fukami, a scientist studying evolution at Stanford University. Many new qualities are evolving in the short term, but they don’t provide an important advantage over the long term. In other words, species staying unchanged may simply have found the best possible set of qualities for lasting success in their environment. So what happens when the lizards’ environment changes greatly? To help answer this bigger question, Stroud is still making trips to visit the lizards. 12. Why does the author mention the “coelacanth” in paragraph 1? A. To show its long history of changes. B. To add evidence to natural selection. C. To prove the great changes in species. D. To give an example of unchanged species. 13 What does the second paragraph mainly talk about? A. Scientists’ confusion about species evolution. B. The difference between two types of selection. C. The process of stabilizing selection in evolution. D. A belief about how some species remain unchanged. 14. How did Stroud carry out his research? A. By doing lab tests. B. By tracking research objects. C. By studying lizard fossils. D. By comparing color changes in lizards. 15. What will Stroud probably do in the future? A. Make trips to visit lizard professionals. B. Summarize average features of lizards. C. Examine lizards under extreme conditions. D. Record the best sets of qualities. 【答案】12. D 13. D 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍部分物种看似未进化的现象，以及相关研究对其原因的新探索。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“But some organisms seem to be unchanged — in other words, escape natural selection. The coelacanth, a modern-day fish, is nearly the same as its 410-million-year-old fossils (化石).(但有些生物似乎没有变化 —— 换句话说，它们逃脱了自然选择。腔棘鱼是一种现代鱼类，几乎与4.1亿年前的化石一模一样)”可知，作者提到腔棘鱼是为了举例说明“看似未进化的物种”。故选D项。 【13题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段中的“It has been argued that natural selection keeps some species unchanged by selecting for moderate (中等) qualities(stabilizing selection)rather than selecting for more extreme qualities that would cause a species to change(directional selection).(有人认为，自然选择通过选择中等特征（稳定选择）而非可能导致物种变化的极端特征（定向选择），使一些物种保持不变)”可知，该段主要阐述了一种关于“部分物种如何保持不变的普遍观点。故选D项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The researchers caught members of these populations in the wild every six months for three years. They measured each lizard’s head size, leg length, weight and height, as well as the size of its sticky toes, noting which individuals survived.(研究人员在三年内每六个月在野外捕捉这些种群的成员。他们测量了每只蜥蜴的头部大小、腿长、体重和身高，以及其粘性脚趾的大小，并记录哪些个体存活了下来)”可知，Stroud通过定期捕捉野外蜥蜴、测量特征并追踪存活情况开展研究。故选B项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“So what happens when the lizards’ environment changes greatly? To help answer this bigger question, Stroud is still making trips to visit the lizards.(那么，当蜥蜴的生存环境发生巨大变化时会发生什么？为了帮助回答这个更宏大的问题，Stroud仍在多次前往观察这些蜥蜴)”可知，Stroud未来可能会研究环境剧变（极端条件）下蜥蜴的情况。故选C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可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Think back to the last time you shopped for fruits and vegetables.
