I was never very neat, while my roommate Kate was extremely organized. Each of her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled (贴标签) everything, I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other.
War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, “Take your shoes away! Why under my bed!” Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder.
The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled (爬) under her covers, sobbing. Obviously, that was something she should not go through alone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy (同情) rose up in my heart.
Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. I got so into my work that I even didn’t notice Kate had sat up. She was watching, her tears dried and her expression one of disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to take mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me, “Thanks.” Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn’t always agree, but we learned the key to living together: giving in, cleaning up and holding on.
4. What is the main function of the phone call in the story?
A. To explain why Kate was always so organized.
B. To introduce a new character into the story.
C. To serve as a turning point in the author’s feelings.
D. To start another fight.
5. The underlined word “deafened” in paragraph 2 is used to show that ______.
A. the author had hearing problems B. the author felt incredibly shocked

6. Which of the following best describes the author’s change?
A. From being lazy to being hardworking.
B. From being sympathetic to being angry.
C. From thinking about herself to thinking about Kate.
D From disliking cleaning to loving it.
7. What can we infer about the “key” they learned?
A. It was a simple rule they found in a book.
B. It needs effort and give-and-take from both sides.
C. It means one person must always say sorry.
D. It was only short-term and wouldn’t last long.
C
After bikes and umbrellas are made sharable across China, some companies started eyeing the fitness market, so shared gym rooms have hit the streets in Beijing.
Unlike common gyms that provide large, open spaces for many members to share at the same time, the newly built shared gym rooms are small, separate rooms for a person to use, often set up near living communities.
Every four-square-metre room provides a treadmill (跑步机) music, watch movies and check emails by connecting to the Internet by the screen fixed on the treadmill. But there’s no shower.
Similar to using a shared bike, users can locate a shared gym room by a smartphone app, book a room in advance and then need to scan a QR code for use. A refundable deposit (可退还的押金) of 99 yuan is required, and users are charged 1 yuan every 5 minutes.
The shared gym rooms are created by Misspao, a Beijing-based technology company founded in July. Within several months since it was founded, the company has already raised over 100 million yuan. However, the idea of the shared fitness experience is not totally new. Last December, the company VRUN set up shared treadmills in office and apartment buildings.
The sharing economy is still becoming popular in China. According to Yicai Global, confident people are pouring millions into sharing start-ups. In March, the State Information Centre published a report which says that the total value of China’s sharing economy will see a yearly growth of 40% in the coming years, and it is expected to make a great contribution to the country’s GDP.
8. Which of the following is a potential advantage of shared gym rooms over traditional gyms?
A. They offer a wider variety of group exercise classes.
B. They are more suitable for large-scale social activities.
C. They are cheaper as they require no deposit.
D. They might be more conveniently located near neighborhoods.
9. What is the correct process for using a shared gym room?
A. Scan the code, book the room, then locate it.
B. Pay the deposit, watch TV, then connect to the internet.
C. Locate the room, book it, then scan a QR code to use it.
D. Run on the treadmill, then get a refund automatically.
10. Who would benefit MOST from using a shared gym room?
A. A professional athlete who needs intensive daily training.
B. A person living in an apartment who wants a convenient and private workout.
C. A family looking for a weekend activity to do together.
D. A tourist who wants to take a shower after sightseeing.
11. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To introduce shared gym rooms. B. To praise a technology company.
C. To support the idea of sharing gym rooms. D. To tell the future of shared gym rooms.
D
Poetry is maybe the most human of all human endeavors, which is thought least likely to be taken over by AI. But according to a recent study, this is not so, as non-experts rate AI poetry higher than poetry written by humans.
The researchers chose 10 famous poets: Samuel Butler, Geoffrey Chaucer, William Shakespeare... They then asked ChatGTP 3.5 to write poems in the style of each poet. And they asked the participants, who were not experts, to rate the work on 14 scales, like profundity, rhythm, originality, imagery, beauty, emotion, and overall quality.
What was surprising indeed is that most of these non-experts, when they were not told whether a poem was composed by AI or by a human systematically, ranked the ones that were actually written by AI higher than the ones written by humans.
What does this experiment show exactly? The researchers are very clear that these findings were limited to non-experts. The research team’s own explanation has to do with participants’ lack of expertise, concluding that these non-experts preferred the AI poetry because it was less complicated, and more straightforward
This must be part of the story, but it’s not the whole story. Take another deeply human endeavor, wine-tasting, as an example. It was first reported that non-experts are very bad at making the simplest distinctions about wine, but shortly afterwards it was found that experts make the same kind of mistakes and sometimes they in fact made more mistakes.
Plus, it is usually tricky to do experiments on aesthetic (美学) appreciation. This experiment was about the participants’ self-report about their experiences and, as we know from literally thousands of studies, self-reports can be misleading in most contexts. So this experiment was not about the real aesthetic experience of poetry, which is what really maters. It was about what participants thought about their aesthetic experience.
The study is important and creative. But it doesn’t show that promising poets should abandon their passion. Not yet, anyway.
12. What is the second paragraph mainly about?
A. The process of the experiment. B. The principle of the experiment.
C. The subject of the experiment. D. The result of the experiment.
13. Why does the author mention “wine-tasting” in paragraph 5?
A. To compare poetry with wine. B. To show non-experts’ preferences.
C. To prove the research findings. D. To argue against the team’s explanation.
14 What can be inferred about the non-experts according to the text?
A. They showed good aesthetic appreciation skills.
B. They had prior experience in evaluating poetic quality.
C. They rated the poems based on their aesthetic experience.
D. They were expert in distinguishing AI poetry from human poetry.
15. What is the author’s attitude towards the future of human poetry?
A. Optimistic. B. Indifferent. C. Critical. D. Doubtful.

I was never very neat, while my roommate Kate was extremely organized. Each of her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled (贴标签) everything, I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other.
War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, “Take your shoes away! Why under my bed!” Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder.
The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled (爬) under her covers, sobbing. Obviously, that was something she should not go through alone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy (同情) rose up in my heart.
Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. I got so into my work that I even didn’t notice Kate had sat up. She was watching, her tears dried and her expression one of disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to take mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me, “Thanks.” Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn’t always agree, but we learned the key to living together: giving in, cleaning up and holding on.

After bikes and umbrellas are made sharable across China, some companies started eyeing the fitness market, so shared gym rooms have hit the streets in Beijing.
Unlike common gyms that provide large, open spaces for many members to share at the same time, the newly built shared gym rooms are small, separate rooms for a person to use, often set up near living communities.
Every four-square-metre room provides a treadmill (跑步机) music, watch movies and check emails by connecting to the Internet by the screen fixed on the treadmill. But there’s no shower.
Similar to using a shared bike, users can locate a shared gym room by a smartphone app, book a room in advance and then need to scan a QR code for use. A refundable deposit (可退还的押金) of 99 yuan is required, and users are charged 1 yuan every 5 minutes.
The shared gym rooms are created by Misspao, a Beijing-based technology company founded in July. Within several months since it was founded, the company has already raised over 100 million yuan. However, the idea of the shared fitness experience is not totally new. Last December, the company VRUN set up shared treadmills in office and apartment buildings.
The sharing economy is still becoming popular in China. According to Yicai Global, confident people are pouring millions into sharing start-ups. In March, the State Information Centre published a report which says that the total value of China’s sharing economy will see a yearly growth of 40% in the coming years, and it is expected to make a great contribution to the country’s GDP.
8. Which of the following is a potential advantage of shared gym rooms over traditional gyms?
A. They offer a wider variety of group exercise classes.
B. They are more suitable for large-scale social activities.
C. They are cheaper as they require no deposit.
D. They might be more conveniently located near neighborhoods.
9. What is the correct process for using a shared gym room?
A. Scan the code, book the room, then locate it.
B. Pay the deposit, watch TV, then connect to the internet.
C. Locate the room, book it, then scan a QR code to use it.
D. Run on the treadmill, then get a refund automatically.
10. Who would benefit MOST from using a shared gym room?
A. A professional athlete who needs intensive daily training.
B. A person living in an apartment who wants a convenient and private workout.
C. A family looking for a weekend activity to do together.
D. A tourist who wants to take a shower after sightseeing.
11. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To introduce shared gym rooms. B. To praise a technology company.
C. To support the idea of sharing gym rooms. D. To tell the future of shared gym rooms.
【答案】8 D 9. C 10. B 11. A

【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Unlike common gyms that provide large, open spaces for many members to share at the same time, the newly built shared gym rooms are small, separate rooms for a person to use, often set up near living communities.(普通健身房为许多会员同时提供大而开放的空间,而新建的共享健身房是供个人使用的小而独立的房间,通常设置在生活区附近。)”可知,共享健身房相对于传统健身房的潜在优势是它们可能位于社区附近,更方便。故选D。

细节理解题。根据第四段中“Similar to using a shared bike, users can locate a shared gym room by a smartphone app, book a room in advance and then need to scan a QR code for use.(与使用共享单车类似,用户可以通过智能手机应用程序找到共享健身房,提前预订房间,然后扫描二维码使用。)”可知,使用共享健身房的正确流程是找到房间,预订,然后扫描二维码使用它。故选C。
【10题详解】

【11题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是第一段“After bikes and umbrellas are made sharable across China, some companies started eyeing the fitness market, so shared gym rooms have hit the streets in Beijing.(在自行车和雨伞在中国变得可共享之后,一些公司开始关注健身市场,所以共享健身房在北京的街道上出现了。)”和第二段“Unlike common gyms that provide large, open spaces for many members to share at the same time, the newly built shared gym rooms are small, separate rooms for a person to use, often set up near living communities.(普通健身房为许多会员同时提供大而开放的空间,而新建的共享健身房是供个人使用的小而独立的房间,通常设置在生活区附近。)”可知,本文主要讲的是北京出现的共享健身房的相关信息,因此写这篇文章的目的是介绍共享健身房。故选A。

Poetry is maybe the most human of all human endeavors, which is thought least likely to be taken over by AI. But according to a recent study, this is not so, as non-experts rate AI poetry higher than poetry written by humans.
The researchers chose 10 famous poets: Samuel Butler, Geoffrey Chaucer, William Shakespeare... They then asked ChatGTP 3.5 to write poems in the style of each poet. And they asked the participants, who were not experts, to rate the work on 14 scales, like profundity, rhythm, originality, imagery, beauty, emotion, and overall quality.
What was surprising indeed is that most of these non-experts, when they were not told whether a poem was composed by AI or by a human systematically, ranked the ones that were actually written by AI higher than the ones written by humans.
What does this experiment show exactly? The researchers are very clear that these findings were limited to non-experts. The research team’s own explanation has to do with participants’ lack of expertise, concluding that these non-experts preferred the AI poetry because it was less complicated, and more straightforward
This must be part of the story, but it’s not the whole story. Take another deeply human endeavor, wine-tasting, as an example. It was first reported that non-experts are very bad at making the simplest distinctions about wine, but shortly afterwards it was found that experts make the same kind of mistakes and sometimes they in fact made more mistakes.
Plus, it is usually tricky to do experiments on aesthetic (美学) appreciation. This experiment was about the participants’ self-report about their experiences and, as we know from literally thousands of studies, self-reports can be misleading in most contexts. So this experiment was not about the real aesthetic experience of poetry, which is what really maters. It was about what participants thought about their aesthetic experience.
The study is important and creative. But it doesn’t show that promising poets should abandon their passion. Not yet, anyway.
12. What is the second paragraph mainly about?
A. The process of the experiment. B. The principle of the experiment.
C. The subject of the experiment. D. The result of the experiment.
13. Why does the author mention “wine-tasting” in paragraph 5?
A. To compare poetry with wine. B. To show non-experts’ preferences.
C. To prove the research findings. D. To argue against the team’s explanation.
14. What can be inferred about the non-experts according to the text?
A. They showed good aesthetic appreciation skills.
B. They had prior experience in evaluating poetic quality.
C. They rated the poems based on their aesthetic experience.
D. They were expert in distinguishing AI poetry from human poetry.
15. What is the author’s attitude towards the future of human poetry?
A. Optimistic. B. Indifferent. C. Critical. D. Doubtful.
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. C 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。主要探讨AI诗歌在非专家评价中得分高于人类诗歌的现象及背后的争议。
【12题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“The researchers chose 10 famous poets: Samuel Butler, Geoffrey Chaucer, William Shakespeare... They then asked ChatGTP 3.5 to write poems in the style of each poet. And they asked the participants, who were not experts, to rate the work on 14 scales, like profundity, rhythm, originality, imagery, beauty, emotion, and overall quality.(研究人员选择了10位著名诗人:塞缪尔·巴特勒、杰弗里·乔叟、威廉·莎士比亚……然后他们让ChatGTP 3.5模仿每位诗人的风格写诗。他们还让非专家参与者从14个维度对这些作品进行评分,如深刻性、韵律、独创性、意象、美感、情感和整体质量)”可知,该段详细描述了实验的具体操作步骤,即实验过程。故选A项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“This must be part of the story, but it’s not the whole story. Take another deeply human endeavor, wine-tasting, as an example. It was first reported that non-experts are very bad at making the simplest distinctions about wine, but shortly afterwards it was found that experts make the same kind of mistakes and sometimes they in fact made more mistakes.(这一定是部分原因,但并非全部。以另一项极具人类特色的活动——品酒为例。最初有报道称,非专家在对葡萄酒进行最简单的区分时表现很差,但不久之后发现,专家也会犯同样的错误,有时甚至犯更多的错误)”可推知,作者提到品酒是为了反驳研究团队关于“非专家因缺乏专业知识而更偏好AI诗歌”的解释,说明专家也可能犯错,不能仅将原因归结于非专家的专业性不足。故选D项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段中的“This experiment was about the participants’ self-report about their experiences and, as we know from literally thousands of studies, self-reports can be misleading in most contexts. So this experiment was not about the real aesthetic experience of poetry, which is what really maters. It was about what participants thought about their aesthetic experience.(这个实验是关于参与者对自己体验的自我报告,正如我们从成千上万的研究中所知道的,在大多数情况下,自我报告可能会产生误导。所以这个实验并不是关于诗歌真正的审美体验,而这才是真正重要的。它是关于参与者对自己审美体验的看法)”可推断,非专家是根据自己的审美体验来给诗歌评分的,只是这种自我报告可能存在误导性。故选C项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“The study is important and creative. But it doesn’t show that promising poets should abandon their passion. Not yet, anyway.(这项研究既重要又有创意。但这并不意味着有前途的诗人应该放弃他们的热情。至少现在还不是)”可知,作者认为该研究虽有意义,但并不能说明人类诗歌会被AI取代,对人类诗歌的未来持乐观态度。故选A项。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了煎饼作为中国流行的街头早餐,其历史、制作特点以及在不同地区的差异,并提及了一些外国人尝试制作并推广煎饼的情况。
【36题详解】
考查介词。句意:每个社区都有自己的煎饼摊贩,从黎明到白天再到夜晚,为上班路上饥饿的当地人提供早餐。“from...to...”是固定搭配,意为“从……到……”。故填to。
【37题详解】
考查名词。句意:每个社区都有自己的煎饼摊贩,从黎明到白天再到夜晚,为上班路上饥饿的当地人提供早餐。可数名词local作宾语,意为“当地人”,“饥饿的当地人”不止一个,应用复数形式。故填locals。
【38题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意:与你所想的不同,煎饼并不是一种可以随手拿走的街头早餐。“ 3 you might think”是宾语从句,从句缺少宾语,表示“你所想的事情”,用连接代词what引导该从句。故填what。
【39题详解】
考查副词。句意:但基本上,煎饼是一种值得等待的早餐。提示词修饰整个句子,用副词basically作状语,意为“基本上”。故填basically。
【40题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:据认为,它起源于三国时期的山东省,当时军事专家诸葛亮让士兵们在举在火上的盾牌上做饭。“ 5 a military expert Zhuge Liang had his soldiers cook food on shields (盾) held over the fire”是非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词the Three Kingdoms Period,在定语从句中作时间状语,用关系副词when引导从句。故填when。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:据认为,它起源于三国时期的山东省,当时军事专家诸葛亮让士兵们在举在火上的盾牌上做饭。“(hold) over the fire”作后置定语修饰名词shields,hold(举)用非谓语动词形式,与其逻辑主语shields之间是被动关系,用过去分词表被动。故填held。
【42题详解】
考查冠词。句意:复制这道菜的挑战之一在于,煎饼的配方因地而异,甚至因摊贩而异。根据“of copying the dish”可知,特指复制这道菜所面临的挑战,用定冠词the限定。故填the。
【43题详解】
考查形容词。句意:许多人认为,如果不经过数月的练习,自己制作煎饼是不可能的。提示词作宾语补足语,表示“不可能的”,用反义词impossible,表明其逻辑主语it的性质。故填impossible。
【44题详解】
考查时态语态和主谓一致。句意:然而,一些精力充沛的外国人做到了,他们在20世纪80年代第一次在中国品尝煎饼后,受到启发,决定将煎饼带给饥饿的观众。inspire(启发,激励)是定语从句谓语动词,与主语who(指代先行词foreigners)之间是被动关系,结合时间状语“back in the 1980s”可知,讲述过去的事情,应用一般过去时的被动语态,主语是复数名词,谓语动词用复数形式。故填were inspired。
【45题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:在英国,Mei Mei’s Street Cart的老板双胞胎梅丽莎和奥利弗·傅不顾完善技艺的一切困难,正将煎饼的乐趣首先带到伦敦,现在又带到了曼彻斯特。“have difficulty (in) doing sth.”是固定搭配,意为“做某事有困难”,用动名词作宾语。故填perfecting。
第四部分 写作(共两节,满分40分)
第一节 单词拼写(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)
A. 根据所给单词,写出该单词的正确形式。
46. Whenever there ______ (arise) a controversy (争议), he tried to keep his hands clean of it. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】arose
【解析】
【详解】考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:每当出现争议时,他都试图置身事外。分析句子结构可知,本句是由Whenever引导的时间状语从句,主句“he tried to...”使用了一般过去时,故从句时态需与其保持一致,也用一般过去时。从句为完全倒装结构,主语是“a controversy”,空格处是谓语。动词“arise”的过去式是“arose”。故填arose。
47. The climbers carried a ______ (various) of equipment on their backs. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】variety
【解析】
【详解】考查名词。句意:登山者背上背着各种各样的装备。a后跟名词的单数形式,various的名词是variety,a variety of意为“各种各样的”。故填variety。
48. Some people ____________ (remove) from the area, including this woman, which caused many people jobless。(所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】were removed
【解析】
【详解】考查动词时态和语态。句意:一些人,包括这位妇女,被从该地区移除,这导致许多人失业。分析句子结构可知,空格处是主句的谓语动词。主语“Some people”与动词“remove(移除)”之间是被动关系,且根据定语从句谓语动词caused用了一般过去时可知,本句描述的是发生在过去的事情,故应用一般过去时的被动语态“was/were+ 过去分词”。主语“Some people”为复数,be动词用were,remove的过去分词为removed。故填were removed。
49. The diplomat threw in a joke, and the tension was instantly ______(relieve). (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】relieved
【解析】
【详解】考查动词时态语态。句意:这位外交官插了一个笑话,紧张气氛立刻得到了缓解。分析句子结构可知,空格处应作谓语。主语“the tension(紧张气氛)”与动词“relieve(缓解)”构成被动关系,且动作发生在过去,故应用一般过去时的被动语态“was/were+ 过去分词”,主语为单数,be动词用was,且句中已给出,此处只填relieve的过去分词relieved。故填relieved。
50. Biology is my favorite subject, and my target is ________ (prepare) myself for my degree in biology at university. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】to prepare
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:生物学是我最喜欢的学科,我的目标是为我的大学生物学学位做准备。本句已有谓语动词is,所以prepare用非谓语形式,根据句意,此处表目的,用不定式作表语。故填to prepare。
B. 根据首字母和中文意思写出单词正确形式或者根据语境填空。
51. Young Mark seems very knowledgeable and experienced for his age — d______ (确切地,肯定地) an old head on young shoulders. (根据中英文提示单词拼写)

52. I noticed with great s______(满足)that you made great progress. (根据中英文提示单词拼写)
【答案】satisfaction##atisfaction
【解析】
【详解】考查名词。句意:我注意到你取得了巨大进步,非常满意。根据中文提示“满足”和首字母s可知,此处应填satisfaction。with great satisfaction是固定介词短语,在句中作状语,修饰动词noticed,表示“带着极大的满足感/非常满意地”。故填satisfaction。
53. This is p______ (尤其) good at reducing stress and anxiety levels. (根据中英文提示单词拼写)
【答案】particularly##articularly
【解析】
【详解】考查副词。句意:这在减轻压力和焦虑水平方面尤其有效。根据中文提示“尤其”和首字母p可知,此处应填副词 particularly,在句中作状语修饰形容词 good,表示程度。故填 particularly。
54. It will draw you closer together, and the s______ (优势) of the closeness will greatly benefit you. (根据中英文提示单词拼写)

【解析】
【详解】考查名词。句意:它会使你们的关系更加紧密,而这种亲密关系的优势将使你大大受益。根据中文提示“优势”和首字母s可知,此处应填名词strength。该词既可用作不可数名词,表示抽象的整体“优势”,也可用作可数名词,此时可以用复数形式表示具体的多个“优势”,因此空格处可以填strength或strengths,在句中作主语。故填strength/strengths。
55. He shouted angrily at anyone ______ (在……之内) range. (根据中英文提示单词拼写)
【答案】within
【解析】
【详解】考查介词。句意:他对任何在他范围内的人怒吼。“在……之内”是within,within range意为“在范围内”。故填within。

57. They s______ (寻求) to achieve their goals at all costs when they were in the competition. (根据中英文提示单词拼写)
【答案】sought##ought
【解析】
【详解】考查动词时态。句意:在比赛中,他们不惜一切代价力求实现自己的目标。根据中文提示“寻求”和首字母s可知,此处应填动词seek。由时间状语从句“when they were in the competition”可知,主句动作发生在过去,应用一般过去时。seek的过去式为sought。故填sought。
58. P______ (专业的) people include lawyers, doctors, architects and the like. (根据中英文提示单词拼写)

60. Besides, those ______ are feeling down can go for a run to cheer themselves up. (用适当的词填空)
【答案】who
【解析】
【详解】考查定语从句。句意:此外,那些情绪低落的人可以去跑步让自己振作起来。空格处引导的是限制性定语从句,从句中缺少主语,先行词those是人,因此用关系代词who引导定语从句,故填who。
