B If you look around your city, you might spot girls wearing hanfu in subways or people wearing T-shirts with Chinese characters on the streets. A new trend is taking hold in China — guochao, or “China chic” The term characterizes the rise of China’s native fashion trends. It has expanded the concept of “Made in China”, which has been recognized as the representation of Chinese culture and aesthetics (美学) offered by homegrown Chinese brands. China-chic came into the spotlight in 2018. Before that, big-name foreign companies, such as NIKE, ADIDAS and PUMA, dominated the world market. But that year, Chinese sportswear brand Li-Ning changed things up. During the 2018 New York Fashion Week, Li-Ning introduced its Taoism-inspired Wu Dao collection. The collection not only had a trendy look, but also included elements of traditional Chinese culture. It immediately grabbed attention at home and abroad. As a result, the company recorded 20 percent profit growth in 2018, marking the first time the brand’s revenue had hit the 10-billion-yuan mark since its founding. The trend to embrace domestic brands has since spread rapidly to various sectors and products, from food and drinks to clothing, mobile phones and electric vehicles. For example, White Rabbit, whose sweet candy brings back childhood memories for many, launched its perfume and lip balm. “We want White Rabbit to be a brand that young people want to share,” said Shen Qinfeng, the company’s marketing manager. “Now, the guochao trend is moving to the next stage, where its success will rely. First and foremost, on gaining cultural confidence rather than Western recognition.” according to Kerra Zhou, founder of brand strategy consultancy Kerrisma. No matter how the guochao trend develops, there’s one thing that won’t change: Behind the craze is people’s positive attitude toward the country’s development and their recognition of growing confidence in national culture, added Zhou. 24. What’s the function of Paragraph 1? A. To introduce a new trend in China. B. To highlight the popularity of guochao. C. To describe a common scene on the street. D. To show Chinese brands beat foreign companies. 25. Which of the following statements about guochao is correct? A. Li-Ning stimulated the development of guochao. B. Guochao is a new trend popular throughout the world. C. Guochao refers to people’s preference for ancient culture. D. It’s before 2018 that guochao had received great attention. 26. Why did Li-Ning get so much attention during the 2018 New York Fashion Week? A. It took the lead in the similar brands. B. It adopted Western design in its sportswear. C. Its revenue hit the 10-billion-yuan mark that year. D. Its products followed the trend and reflected Chinese elements. 27. What may Kerra Zhou agree with? A. Chinese is still following the western trend. B. Guochao’s success relies on western recognition. C. National pride arouses the passion for guochao. D. Cultural awareness is the key to winning market share. C Imagine the roadways where nearly all serious accidents can be avoided, and trucks can transport goods around the clock without needing to stop for sleep. Applications for advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) will replace the average human reaction time, lowering it from 1.6 seconds to just 0.5 seconds, saving countless lives in the process. The driverless future of autonomous vehicles (AV) is set to transform society by reinventing (重塑) the transportation industry and changing consumer behaviors forever. Yet, the share of consumers who support government regulation of fully self-driving cars has declined 15% over the past year, and trust in the safety of autonomous vehicles is down 5%. To address these ongoing safety concerns, more must be done. Autonomous vehicles should not be regulated by the same rules that govern standard passenger vehicles because those regulations do not address the unique safety challenges for AVs. To address these concerns, the industry will need to continue building public trust through the improved performance of AV systems, especially in controlled environments. Reaching a totally hands-off and eyes-off autonomous driving experience will require a range of next-generation technologies that are still being developed. Automakers will continue to increase the safety of autonomous vehicles by applying new technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning to improve the performance of sensors that use radio and light waves to help detect road users in all weather conditions. The technical brain of an AV system relies on software systems that actively protect passengers. As this market grows, costs will steadily fall for these new sensors and high-performance computers, just as safety standards continue to progress around the country and the world. To help build confidence in AVs, the industry will need to generate a common set of testing standards, similar to crash safety standards, that AV developers can evaluate their systems against. As autonomous driving evolves, the road to a driverless future still holds many twists and turns ahead. It should be an exciting and wild ride for years to come as the auto industry reinvents itself with ever-increasing levels of automation. 28. What make consumers still hesitant about the application of AV? A. Costly operating systems. B. Government regulations. C Potential safety concerns. D. Complicated technologies. 29. What can we learn from paragraph 3? A. AVs fail to follow standard regulations. B. Tailored rules are needed for AVs. C. Public trust in AVs is difficult to earn. D. AVs should be tested on public roads. 30. How can the public’s trust in AVs be improved? A. By integrating existing technologies. B. By limiting their maximum speed. C. By developing a reliable testing system. D. By minimizing the cost of sensors. 31. What is the writer’s attitude towards the future of AVs? A. Skeptical and concerned. B. Cautious yet optimistic. C. Worried and reserved. D. Pessimistic yet tolerant. D Using artificial intelligence to create artworks increases artists’ productivity and generates more positive reactions, according to a study involving submissions to a popular art-sharing website by more than 50,000 users. But generative AI works are more likely to display stereotypical (刻板印象的) themes, reducing the novelty of an artist’s work. The researchers tracked 4 million works published on the website by the artists. The artists self-divided into two groups: those who continued to work using traditional methods — a sort of control group, and those who adopted AI. The latter group, numbering about 5,800, were identified by the use of tags (标签) on their work, such as “AI-generated” or the names of the AI tools. Works posted into AI art communities on the site were also included. Artists who adopted AI tools saw their productivity measured by the number of works posted increase by 25 percent over the study period. They also saw a 50 percent rise in the number of “favourites” their work received over six months. But novelty, measured by the subject matter and specific details of the work, decreased for the AI-using group. “The study completely tracks with my own experience with these tools and spaces,” says Andres Guadamuz at the University of Sussex, UK. “At first, it felt that you could do anything, bring anything in your head into existence, but the more I used them, the more I kept coming back to themes I liked.” Guadamuz points out that he isn’t judging the quality of the images produced by generative AI nor their originality, nor the creativity involved in the process. All these things are often hotly contested, with some artists saying that generative AI is using their works as training data and limiting their ability to be recognized as creatives. Zhou at Boston University is also considering these questions. He says, “The generative technology accelerates the ability to produce. But it raises other issues: Are we foregoing the process of understanding what goes into being creative and producing something meaningful, in favour of just being able to brute force our way with technology?” 32. What do we know about the artworks created by AI according to paragraph 1? A. They are abundant but less creative. B. They are generative but less popular. C. They balance popularity with artistic depth. D. They attract viewers with the trendy subjects. 33. How was the study conducted? A. By surveying artists’ opinions on AI tools using. B. By analyzing suggestions on generative AI works. C. By comparing artworks with different AI involvement. D. By observing the process of AI-assisted artistic creation. 34. What can be inferred from Guadamuz’s statement? A. AI tools help artists explore new creative styles. B. AI users receive more recognition for their creativity. C. Artists believe AI improves the quality of their artworks. D. Artists may repeat themes they like when using AI tools. 35. What is the best title for the text? A. The Unstoppable Rise of AI Artworks. B. The Breakthrough of AI in Artistic Creation. C. The Role of AI in Artistic Productivity. D. The Double-Edged Sword of AI in Artworks. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 You may have grown up living with lots of siblings, or this may be your first time sharing your living space with someone else.

On this particular day in 2024, I was assigned to a middle seat. Unfortunately, I was so fat that I couldn’t fit down the aisle facing forward, so I was forced to walk sideways like a crab. My weight varied between 340 and 360 pounds, depending on whether to take it before or after one of my enormous meals. When finally squeezing into my seat, I found the seat belt wasn’t long enough to fit around my 52-inch waist. At that moment, I was stricken by an intense desire to lose weight. I began looking for signs which would guide me toward a better life, and instantly a sign showed up. At the switch of TV, I happened to see an interview with a former world athlete. He said that a doctor put him on a whole-food, plant-based diet and offered a good care of him. He lost weight without feeling hungry, and he was healthier and stronger than he’d been since his twenties. I never imagined my sign would come from him, but there he was. I didn’t know what a “whole-food, plant-based diet” means. I went online and searched for a doctor who could help me. That’s how I found Robert, an experienced medical specialist. Hope fell on me when he promised to see me the next day. The doctor recommended a low calorie diet and some physical exercises to do in my home. He also made a suggestion that I should go to a shelter and adopt a dog. “Excuse me?” I couldn’t believe what he said. But, he added, “A dog is a good companion. While you live in an apartment, the dog has to be walked. Walking your dog twice a day will be your exercise. I’m sure it can improve not only your health but also the quality of your life.” 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: With disbelief and hesitation, I drove up to a dog shelter near where I lived. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: I came back home with the large black-and-white dog with a big round body. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 淮安市高中校协作体2025～2026学年度第一学期高二年级期中联考 英语试卷 时间：120分钟 总分：150分 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，并标在试卷的相应位置。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 Karen do?

A new trend is taking hold in China — guochao, or “China chic” The term characterizes the rise of China’s native fashion trends. It has expanded the concept of “Made in China”, which has been recognized as the representation of Chinese culture and aesthetics (美学) offered by homegrown Chinese brands. China-chic came into the spotlight in 2018. Before that, big-name foreign companies, such as NIKE, ADIDAS and PUMA, dominated the world market. But that year, Chinese sportswear brand Li-Ning changed things up. During the 2018 New York Fashion Week, Li-Ning introduced its Taoism-inspired Wu Dao collection. The collection not only had a trendy look, but also included elements of traditional Chinese culture. It immediately grabbed attention at home and abroad. As a result, the company recorded 20 percent profit growth in 2018, marking the first time the brand’s revenue had hit the 10-billion-yuan mark since its founding. The trend to embrace domestic brands has since spread rapidly to various sectors and products, from food and drinks to clothing, mobile phones and electric vehicles. For example, White Rabbit, whose sweet candy brings back childhood memories for many, launched its perfume and lip balm. “We want White Rabbit to be a brand that young people want to share,” said Shen Qinfeng, the company’s marketing manager. “Now, the guochao trend is moving to the next stage, where its success will rely. First and foremost, on gaining cultural confidence rather than Western recognition.” according to Kerra Zhou, founder of brand strategy consultancy Kerrisma. No matter how the guochao trend develops, there’s one thing that won’t change: Behind the craze is people’s positive attitude toward the country’s development and their recognition of growing confidence in national culture, added Zhou. 24. What’s the function of Paragraph 1? A. To introduce a new trend in China. B. To highlight the popularity of guochao. C. To describe a common scene on the street. D. To show Chinese brands beat foreign companies. 25. Which of the following statements about guochao is correct? A. Li-Ning stimulated the development of guochao. B. Guochao is a new trend popular throughout the world. C. Guochao refers to people’s preference for ancient culture. D. It’s before 2018 that guochao had received great attention. 26. Why did Li-Ning get so much attention during the 2018 New York Fashion Week? A. It took the lead in the similar brands. B. It adopted Western design in its sportswear. C. Its revenue hit the 10-billion-yuan mark that year. D. Its products followed the trend and reflected Chinese elements. 27. What may Kerra Zhou agree with? A. Chinese is still following the western trend. B. Guochao’s success relies on western recognition. C. National pride arouses the passion for guochao. D. Cultural awareness is the key to winning market share. 【答案】24. A 25. A 26. D 27. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了中国国潮时尚趋势的兴起与发展。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第一段“If you look around your city, you might spot girls wearing hanfu in subways or people wearing T-shirts with Chinese characters on the streets. A new trend is taking hold in China — guochao, or “China chic” (如果你环顾你的城市，你可能会在地铁里看到穿着汉服的女孩，或者在街上看到穿着汉字T恤的人。一种新的趋势正在中国生根发芽——“国潮”)”可知，文章第一段的作用是介绍中国的一个新趋势——国潮。故选A。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第三段中“But that year, Chinese sportswear brand Li-Ning changed things up. During the 2018 New York Fashion Week, Li-Ning introduced its Taoism-inspired Wu Dao collection. The collection not only had a trendy look, but also included elements of traditional Chinese culture. It immediately grabbed attention at home and abroad. As a result, the company recorded 20percent profit growth in 2018, marking the first time the brand’s revenue had hit the 10-billion-yuan mark since its founding. (但那一年，中国运动品牌李宁改变了局面。在2018年纽约时装周期间，李宁推出了以道教为灵感的悟道系列。该系列不仅外观时尚，还融入了中国传统文化元素。它立即引起了国内外的关注。因此，该公司在2018年实现了20%的利润增长，这标志着该品牌自成立以来的收入首次突破100亿元大关)”可知，李宁品牌刺激了国潮的发展。故选A。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第三段中“During the 2018 New York Fashion Week, Li-Ning introduced its Taoism-inspired Wu Dao collection. The collection not only had a trendy look, but also included elements of traditional Chinese culture. It immediately grabbed attention at home and abroad. (在2018年纽约时装周期间，李宁推出了以道教为灵感的悟道系列。该系列不仅外观时尚，还融入了中国传统文化元素。它立即引起了国内外的关注)”可知，李宁受到了广泛关注是因为其产品跟随潮流并反映了中国元素。故选D。 27题详解】 推理判断题。由文章最后一段中““Now, the guochao trend is moving to the next stage, where its success will rely.

No matter how the guochao trend develops, there’s one thing that won’t change: Behind the craze is people’s positive attitude toward the country’s development and their recognition of growing confidence in national culture, added Zhou. (品牌战略咨询公司Kerrisma的创始人Kerra Zhou表示：“现在，国潮趋势正在进入下一个阶段，其成功将取决于。首先，也是最重要的，是获得文化自信，而不是西方认可。”。Zhou补充道：“无论国潮趋势如何发展，有一件事是不会改变的：这股热潮的背后是人们对国家发展的积极态度，以及对民族文化日益增强的信心的认可。”)”可知，Kerra Zhou可能会同意民族自豪感激发了人们对国潮的热情。故选C。 C Imagine the roadways where nearly all serious accidents can be avoided and trucks can transport goods around the clock without needing to stop for sleep. Applications for advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) will replace the average human reaction time, lowering it from 1.6 seconds to just 0.5 seconds, saving countless lives in the process. The driverless future of autonomous vehicles (AV) is set to transform society by reinventing (重塑) the transportation industry and changing consumer behaviors forever. Yet, the share of consumers who support government regulation of fully self-driving cars has declined 15% over the past year, and trust in the safety of autonomous vehicles is down 5%. To address these ongoing safety concerns, more must be done. Autonomous vehicles should not be regulated by the same rules that govern standard passenger vehicles because those regulations do not address the unique safety challenges for AVs. To address these concerns, the industry will need to continue building public trust through the improved performance of AV systems, especially in controlled environments. Reaching a totally hands-off and eyes-off autonomous driving experience will require a range of next-generation technologies that are still being developed. Automakers will continue to increase the safety of autonomous vehicles by applying new technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning to improve the performance of sensors that use radio and light waves to help detect road users in all weather conditions. The technical brain of an AV system relies on software systems that actively protect passengers. As this market grows, costs will steadily fall for these new sensors and high-performance computers, just as safety standards continue to progress around the country and the world. To help build confidence in AVs, the industry will need to generate a common set of testing standards, similar to crash safety standards, that AV developers can evaluate their systems against. As autonomous driving evolves, the road to a driverless future still holds many twists and turns ahead. It should be an exciting and wild ride for years to come as the auto industry reinvents itself with ever-increasing levels of automation. 28. What make consumers still hesitant about the application of AV? A. Costly operating systems. B. Government regulations. C. Potential safety concerns. D. Complicated technologies. 29. What can we learn from paragraph 3? A. AVs fail to follow standard regulations. B. Tailored rules are needed for AVs. C. Public trust in AVs is difficult to earn. D. AVs should be tested on public roads. 30. How can the public’s trust in AVs be improved? A. By integrating existing technologies. B. By limiting their maximum speed. C. By developing a reliable testing system. D. By minimizing the cost of sensors. 31. What is the writer’s attitude towards the future of AVs? A. Skeptical and concerned. B. Cautious yet optimistic. C. Worried and reserved. D. Pessimistic yet tolerant. 【答案】28. C 29. B 30. C 31. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，讨论了自动驾驶汽车(AV)的未来，强调了其在提高交通安全、重塑交通行业和改变消费者行为方面的潜力，同时指出了公众对AV安全性的担忧以及如何建立公众信任。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Yet, the share of consumers who support government regulation of fully self-driving cars has declined 15% over the past year, and trust in the safety of autonomous vehicles is down 5%. (然而，过去一年中，支持政府对完全自动驾驶汽车进行监管的消费者比例下降了15%，对自动驾驶汽车安全性的信任度下降了5%。)”可知，消费者对自动驾驶汽车的潜在安全性问题仍然感到担忧。故选C项。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Autonomous vehicles should not be regulated by the same rules that govern standard passenger vehicles because those regulations do not address the unique safety challenges for AVs. (自动驾驶汽车不应该受到与标准乘用车相同的规则的约束，因为这些规则没有解决自动驾驶汽车面临的特殊安全挑战。)”可知，需要为自动驾驶汽车制定专门的规则。故选B项。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“To help build confidence in AVs, the industry will need to generate a common set of testing standards, similar to crash safety standards, that AV developers can evaluate their systems against.(为了帮助建立对自动驾驶汽车的信心，该行业需要制定一套类似于碰撞安全标准的通用测试标准，以便自动驾驶汽车开发者可以对照这些标准评估其系统。)”可知，制定一套可靠的测试标准可以帮助建立公众对自动驾驶汽车的信心。故选C项。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“It should be an exciting and wild ride for years to come as the auto industry reinvents itself with ever-increasing levels of automation.(随着汽车行业以不断提高的自动化水平重塑自己，未来几年将是一段激动人心且充满变数的旅程。)”可知，作者认为这将是一段激动人心且充满挑战的旅程，由此可知，作者对自动驾驶汽车的未来持谨慎乐观的态度。故选B项。 D Using artificial intelligence to create artworks increases artists’ productivity and generates more positive reactions, according to a study involving submissions to a popular art-sharing website by more than 50,000 users. But generative AI works are more likely to display stereotypical (刻板印象的) themes, reducing the novelty of an artist’s work. The researchers tracked 4 million works published on the website by the artists. The artists self-divided into two groups: those who continued to work using traditional methods — a sort of control group, and those who adopted AI. The latter group, numbering about 5,800, were identified by the use of tags (标签) on their work, such as “AI-generated” or the names of the AI tools. Works posted into AI art communities on the site were also included. Artists who adopted AI tools saw their productivity measured by the number of works posted increase by 25 percent over the study period. They also saw a 50 percent rise in the number of “favourites” their work received over six months. But novelty, measured by the subject matter and specific details of the work, decreased for the AI-using group. “The study completely tracks with my own experience with these tools and spaces,” says Andres Guadamuz at the University of Sussex, UK. “At first, it felt that you could do anything, bring anything in your head into existence, but the more I used them, the more I kept coming back to themes I liked.” Guadamuz points out that he isn’t judging the quality of the images produced by generative AI nor their originality, nor the creativity involved in the process. All these things are often hotly contested, with some artists saying that generative AI is using their works as training data and limiting their ability to be recognized as creatives. Zhou at Boston University is also considering these questions. He says “The generative technology accelerates the ability to produce. But it raises other issues: Are we foregoing the process of understanding what goes into being creative and producing something meaningful, in favour of just being able to brute force our way with technology?” 32. What do we know about the artworks created by AI according to paragraph 1? A. They are abundant but less creative. B. They are generative but less popular. C. They balance popularity with artistic depth. D. They attract viewers with the trendy subjects. 33. How was the study conducted? A. By surveying artists’ opinions on AI tools using. B. By analyzing suggestions on generative AI works. C. By comparing artworks with different AI involvement. D. By observing the process of AI-assisted artistic creation. 34. What can be inferred from Guadamuz’s statement? A. AI tools help artists explore new creative styles. B. AI users receive more recognition for their creativity. C. Artists believe AI improves the quality of their artworks. D. Artists may repeat themes they like when using AI tools. 35. What is the best title for the text? A. The Unstoppable Rise of AI Artworks. B. The Breakthrough of AI in Artistic Creation. C. The Role of AI in Artistic Productivity. D. The Double-Edged Sword of AI in Artworks. 【答案】32. A 33. C 34. D 35. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一项关于使用人工智能创作艺术作品的研究，表明人工智能能提高艺术家的创作效率和作品受欢迎程度，但也会降低作品的新颖性，揭示了人工智能在艺术创作中的双刃剑作用。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Using artificial intelligence to create artworks increases artists’ productivity and generates more positive reactions, according to a study involving submissions to a popular art-sharing website by more than 50,000 users. But generative AI works are more likely to display stereotypical (刻板印象的) themes, reducing the novelty of an artist’s work.(一项涉及 5 万多名用户向一个流行的艺术分享网站提交作品的研究表明，使用人工智能创作艺术作品可以提高艺术家的创作效率，并引发更多积极的反应。但生成式人工智能作品更有可能展示刻板印象的主题，降低了艺术家作品的新颖性)”可知，人工智能创作的艺术作品数量增多（提高了创作效率），但由于展示刻板印象的主题，所以创造性有所降低。故选A。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“The researchers tracked 4 million works published on the website by the artists. The artists self-divided into two groups: those who continued to work using traditional methods — a sort of control group, and those who adopted AI. The latter group, numbering about 5,800, were identified by the use of tags (标签) on their work, such as “AI-generated” or the names of the AI tools. Works posted into AI art communities on the site were also included.(研究人员追踪了艺术家们在该网站上发布的 400 万件作品。艺术家们自行分为两组：一组是继续使用传统方法创作的人——这有点像对照组，另一组是采用人工智能创作的人。后一组大约有 5800 人，通过他们作品上的标签来识别，比如 “人工智能生成” 或人工智能工具的名称。发布在该网站人工智能艺术社区的作品也包括在内)”以及第三段对两组作品在创作效率、受欢迎程度和新颖性等方面的对比可知，这项研究是通过比较有不同人工智能参与度的艺术作品来进行的。故选C。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的““The study completely tracks with my own experience with these tools and spaces,” says Andres Guadamuz at the University of Sussex, UK. “At first, it felt that you could do anything, bring anything in your head into existence, but the more I used them, the more I kept coming back to themes I liked.”(英国苏塞克斯大学的安德烈斯・瓜达穆兹说：“这项研究与我自己使用这些工具和创作空间的经历完全相符。一开始，感觉你可以做任何事情，把你脑海中的任何东西都变成现实，但我使用得越多，就越会回到我喜欢的主题上。”)”可知，从瓜达穆兹的话中可以推断出，艺术家在使用人工智能工具时可能会重复他们喜欢的主题。故选D。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“Using artificial intelligence to create artworks increases artists’ productivity and generates more positive reactions, according to a study involving submissions to a popular art-sharing website by more than 50,000 users. But generative AI works are more likely to display stereotypical (刻板印象的) themes, reducing the novelty of an artist’s work.(一项涉及 5 万多名用户向一个流行的艺术分享网站提交作品的研究表明，使用人工智能创作艺术作品可以提高艺术家的创作效率，并引发更多积极的反应。但生成式人工智能作品更有可能展示刻板印象的主题，降低了艺术家作品的新颖性)”可知，文章既提到了人工智能在艺术创作中能提高创作效率和受欢迎程度的积极作用，也指出了它会降低作品新颖性的消极影响，体现了人工智能在艺术创作中的利和弊，所以题目“人工智能在艺术作品中的双刃剑”概括了文章的主题，适合作为最佳标题。故选D。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 You may have grown up living with lots of siblings, or this may be your first time sharing your living space with someone else.

On this particular day in 2024, I was assigned to a middle seat. Unfortunately, I was so fat that I couldn’t fit down the aisle facing forward, so I was forced to walk sideways like a crab. My weight varied between 340 and 360 pounds, depending on whether to take it before or after one of my enormous meals. When finally squeezing into my seat, I found the seat belt wasn’t long enough to fit around my 52-inch waist. At that moment, I was stricken by an intense desire to lose weight. I began looking for signs which would guide me toward a better life, and instantly a sign showed up. At the switch of TV, I happened to see an interview with a former world athlete. He said that a doctor put him on a whole-food, plant-based diet and offered a good care of him. He lost weight without feeling hungry, and he was healthier and stronger than he’d been since his twenties. I never imagined my sign would come from him, but there he was. I didn’t know what a “whole-food, plant-based diet” means. I went online and searched for a doctor who could help me. That’s how I found Robert, an experienced medical specialist. Hope fell on me when he promised to see me the next day. The doctor recommended a low calorie diet and some physical exercises to do in my home. He also made a suggestion that I should go to a shelter and adopt a dog. “Excuse me?” I couldn’t believe what he said. But, he added, “A dog is a good companion. While you live in an apartment, the dog has to be walked. Walking your dog twice a day will be your exercise. I’m sure it can improve not only your health but also the quality of your life.” 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: With disbelief and hesitation, I drove up to a dog shelter near where I lived. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: I came back home with the large black-and-white dog with a big round body. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 With disbelief and hesitation, I drove up to a dog shelter near where I lived. The moment the dogs caught sight of a stranger, they burst out barking. It was difficult to choose one of them. At that moment, a large black-and-white dog yawning in the corner caught my attention. His round body reminded me of my size and what Robert said. He was perfect for me! Crouching down and stroking his furry head, I couldn’t help imagining the picture in which we both exercised our way to become slim and charming. I came back home with the large black-and-white dog with a big round body. I named him David, who often lay motionless on the floor and yawned with eyes half-closed.
