Now in his early 90s, Foster still remains true to many of the principles that guided him at the start of a career that began more than half a century ago. When he started as an architect, he believed that simply giving people a nice view to look at would make them happier. Now, he says that’s a scientific fact — and he’s still providing those views today. Many of his most famous buildings are huge and glassy. It’s a style we’ re now used to, but Foster was designing these light- filled creations at a time when Western cities were still dominated by thick blocks of concrete (混凝土). It is not because Foster has any problem with concrete — he used lots of it in Apple Park, the technology giant’s California headquarters. But that huge ring is also typical of Foster in that it brings the outside in, with vast windows and shared spaces looking out onto greenery. Perhaps his most famous building — the London building known as the “Gherkin” because of its similarity in shape to the fruit — has views that are slightly less green. But it itself can be seen from far and wide. Completed in 2004, it has become one of London’s most recognizable buildings. Although some feel the Gherkin is out of place, it is in keeping with Foster’s previous creations: the City Hall beside the Thames in London, his glassy reconstruction of the German Reichstag, and his1980s design for the HSBC building in Hong Kong. Despite some health problems later in life, Foster continues to work.“ There is never enough time to do everything I would like,” he said in 2011. Since then, he has designed Apple Park, museums, an airport, and developed the concept for the Lusail Stadium in Qatar. If the only constant is change, Foster has been a force of it in the world of architecture — and he’s not done yet. 4. What is Foster’s initial principle for architectural design? A. Buildings should be highly cost-effective. B. Design styles should keep pace with the times. C. Architecture should be based on scientific theory. D. Nice views should come first in creating buildings. 5. What is a feature of Foster’s most creations? A. fancy lighting decoration. B. Vast glass-equipped looks. C. Long architectural patterns. D. massive concrete structural forms. 6. What is the author’s purpose in referring to the Gherkin in paragraph 3? A. To display Foster’s design principles. B. To contrast it with Foster’s usual style. C. To show Foster’s global fame. D. To explain Foster’s family motto. 7. What can be learned about Foster’s career? A. He prefers historical styles to modern trends. B. His career life contradicts the principles he sticks to. C. His early beliefs are challenged by new architectural concepts. D. His consistency contributes to his lifelong creative work. 【答案】4. D 5. B 6. A 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。英国建筑师诺曼·福斯特秉持“变化是唯一不变”的家训，半个多世纪坚守“注重视野与采光”的设计原则，作品以玻璃质感为特色，90多岁仍持续创作，成为建筑界的变革力量。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“When he started as an architect, he believed that simply giving people a nice view to look at would make them happier.(当他刚开始从事建筑师工作时，他坚信只要能为人们提供一个美丽的景观供他们欣赏，就能让他们更加开心)”可知，福斯特在建筑设计方面的首要原则是在建造建筑物时，应首先考虑美观效果。故选D。 5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Many of his most famous buildings are huge and glassy.(他设计的许多著名建筑都十分宏伟，而且采用了玻璃材质)”可知，福斯特的大部分作品的特点是雄伟的玻璃结构外观。故选B。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Perhaps his most famous building — the London building known as the “Gherkin” because of its similarity in shape to the fruit — has views that are slightly less green.(或许他设计的最著名的建筑——那座位于伦敦、因外形酷似水果而被称为“小黄瓜”的建筑——其窗外的景色略显不那么葱郁了)”以及“Although some feel the Gherkin is out of place, it is in keeping with Foster’s previous creations: the City Hall beside the Thames in London, his glassy reconstruction of the German Reichstag, and his1980s design for the HSBC building in Hong Kong.(尽管有人认为“鹅蛋形建筑”显得格格不入，但它的设计风格与福斯特之前的作品相契合：伦敦泰晤士河畔的市政厅、他为德国国会大厦所做的玻璃结构复原设计，以及他于20世纪80年代为香港汇丰银行大楼所做的设计)”可知，提及小黄瓜大厦这一细节，作者的目的是展示福斯特的设计原则。故选A。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段““The only constant is change.” British architect Norman Foster says this is his family’s motto (座右铭). Now in his early 90s, Foster still remains true to many of the principles that guided him at the start of a career that began more than half a century ago.(“唯一不变的就是变化。”英国建筑师诺曼·福斯特如是说，这是他家族的座右铭。如今，福斯特已年近九旬，但他仍坚守着多年前职业生涯伊始时所秉持的诸多原则。而他的职业生涯始于半个多世纪以前)”以及全文围绕他“坚持初始设计原则”展开，即使90多岁仍持续创作，且作品风格一致，可知，福斯特持之以恒精神促成了他一生的创作工作。故选D。 C Deep in the forests of a remote South Pacific island, a New Caledonian crow (乌鸦) carefully removes a branch, tears off unwanted leaves and fashions a hook (钩子) from the wood. The crow is a perfectionist: if it makes an error, it will throw away the whole thing and start over. When it’s satisfied, the bird places the finished “hook” into a gap in the tree and fishes out a worm . The crow is one of the few birds known to make tools, a skill once thought to be unique to humans. Christian Rutz, a behavioral ecologist at the University of St Andrews, has spent much of his career studying the crow’s capabilities. The remarkable ingenuity in how crows create and use tools that Rutz observed changed his understanding of what birds can do. He started wondering if there might be other outstanding animal capacities. The crows live in complex social groups and may pass tool-making techniques on to their young. Experiments have also shown that different crow groups around the island have distinct vocalizations (发声). Rutz wanted to know whether these dialects could help explain cultural differences in tool-making among the groups. New technology powered by AI is ready to provide exactly these kinds of insights. Whether animals communicate with one another in ways we might be able to understand is a question of lasting fascination. But with recent breakthroughs in AI, “people realize that we are at the point of fairly major advances in regard to understanding animals’ communicative behavior,” Rutz says. AI may soon make it possible to reveal things like crow calls. Scientists, biologists and conservation experts are collecting a wide range of data from a variety of species and building machine learning models to analyze them. Some groups like the Project Cetacean Translation Initiative are trying to understand a particular species, in this case the sperm whale. Decoding animal vocalizations could aid conservation and welfare efforts. It could also have a surprising impact on us. The power of AI to reshape our understanding of animals will have a similar effect. These tools are going to change the way that we see ourselves in relation to everything. 8. Why does the author mention a crow in paragraph 1? A. To demonstrate a crow’s daily routine. B. To detail the hunting process of a crow. C. To describe the social structure of crows. D. To highlight crows’ tool-making skills. 9. Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word “ingenuity” in paragraph 2? A. Challenge. B. Similarity. C. Brilliance. D. Adaptability. 10. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The working principles of AI. B. Potential prospects for the animal protection. C. How AI helps to study animal communication. D. How crows’ tool-making skill inspires new research. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. The Social Behavior of Tool-Making Crows B. AI Reshapes Animal Communication Studies C. AI’s Role in Further Study of Crow Behavior D. Efforts Are Made to Improve Machine Learning 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. C 11. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述新喀里多尼亚乌鸦的工具制造技能引发研究，人工智能助力解析动物交流，不仅推动相关研究，还将重塑人类对自身与动物关系的认知。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Deep in the forests of a remote South Pacific island, a New Caledonian crow (乌鸦) carefully removes a branch, tears off unwanted leaves and fashions a hook (钩子) from the wood. The crow is a perfectionist: if it makes an error, it will throw away the whole thing and start over. When it’s satisfied, the bird places the finished “hook” into a gap in the tree and fishes out a worm.(在南太平洋一座偏远岛屿的森林深处，一只新喀里多尼亚乌鸦小心翼翼地折下一根树枝，撕掉多余的叶子，并用木头打造出一个钩子。这只乌鸦是个完美主义者：如果出错，它会扔掉整个工具重新开始。当它满意时，就会把做好的“钩子”放进树缝里，钓出一条虫子。)”中详细描述新喀里多尼亚乌鸦制作钩子捕食的过程，以及第二段首句“The crow is one of the few birds known to make tools, a skill once thought to be unique to humans. (这种乌鸦是少数已知会制造工具的鸟类之一，而制造工具这项技能曾被认为是人类独有的。)”可知，作者提及乌鸦是为了突出其出色的工具制造技能。故选D项。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段“The remarkable ingenuity in how crows create and use tools that Rutz observed changed his understanding of what birds can do. (鲁茨观察到乌鸦在制造和使用工具方面非凡的ingenuity，这改变了他对鸟类能力的认知。)”并结合前文乌鸦精心修剪树枝、制作钩子且追求完美的细节，可知“ingenuity”指“创造力、聪明才智”。故选C项。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“AI may soon make it possible to reveal things like crow calls. Scientists, biologists and conservation experts are collecting a wide range of data from a variety of species and building machine learning models to analyze them. (人工智能可能很快就能揭示乌鸦鸣叫等信息。科学家、生物学家和保护专家正在收集各种物种的大量数据，并建立机器学习模型进行分析。)”可知，该段主要讲述人工智能如何助力研究动物交流。故选C项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“New technology powered by AI is ready to provide exactly these kinds of insights. Whether animals communicate with one another in ways we might be able to understand is a question of lasting fascination. But with recent breakthroughs in AI,“people realize that we are at the point of fairly major advances in regard to understanding animals’ communicative behavior,” Rutz says.(由人工智能驱动的新技术已准备好提供正是这类深入见解。动物是否会以我们或许能理解的方式相互交流，这是一个长期引人入胜的问题。但鲁茨表示，随着人工智能领域近期的突破性进展，“人们意识到，在理解动物的交流行为方面，我们正处于取得相当重大进展的节点。”)”、第四段AI分析动物数据的具体做法，以及最后一段“The power of AI to reshape our understanding of animals will have a similar effect. (人工智能重塑我们对动物认知的力量将产生类似的影响。)”可知，文章核心是人工智能对动物交流研究的变革作用，B选项“AI Reshapes Animal Communication Studies(人工智能重塑动物交流研究)”最能概括核心主旨，最适合作为文章的标题。故选B项。 D Skibidi, tradwife and delulu are among new words that have made it into the Cambridge Dictionary this year, confirming the increasing influence of the TikTok generation on the English language. For those hoping that such new words would be a passing Internet craze, the compilers (编纂者) of the dictionary say they are here to stay. “Internet culture is changing the English language and the effect is fascinating to observe and capture in the dictionary,” said its lexical programmer manager, Colin McIntosh. “We only add words where we think they’ll have staying power.” Older generations and those not on TikTok will just have to get used to words such as skibidi,which became popular thanks to The Skibidi toilet, a viral animated video that began on YouTube featuring human heads sticking out from lavatories (马桶). Children now often use the word to add emphasis to statements. The Cambridge Dictionary defines skibidi as “a word that can have different meanings such as’ cool’ or’ bad’ or can be used with no real meaning as a joke. An example of its use is: What the skibidi are you doing?” People older than Gen Alpha (born after 2010) have to greet the use of the word with discouragement. The US writer and artist Lee Escobedo is one of them, and he wrote in the Guardian this year: “Skibidi brain-rot sums up a generation fluent in irony (讽刺) but starved for meaning. This kind of chaotic media serves as both entertainment and a background worldview for young men raised online. Their minds normalise tricks as expression.” The tradwife phenomenon refers to socially conservative influencers who celebrate looking after their husbands, children and homes. Delulu, the short form of delusional (妄想), has become associated with a post truth world where personal beliefs are more important than reality. “Barchy”, a term for tech industry leaders on whose tech platforms many of such new words are spreading, also makes it into the dictionary. Other new entries include “work spouse” for workplace relationships where two people help and trust each other. 12. What is the major function of paragraph 3? A. To prove the popularity of TikTok. B. To present an illustration. C. To offer an opposite point of view. D. To list challenges of learning new words. 13. What is Escobedo’s attitude towards skibidi culture? A. Opposed. B. Uncaring. C. Favorable. D. Mixed. 14. Who does the word “tradwife” refer to? A. Leaders of tech platforms. B. Those who value cooperation at work. C. Those who help manage family life. D. Advocates for social equality. 15. What does the inclusion of new words reflect? A. Language keeps pace with times. B. Sei-tech has ehanged social media a lot. C. New words are accepted by all ages. D. Old vocabulary takes on new meanings. 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述Skibidi、tradwife等源于网络与社会现象的新词被《剑桥词典》收录，体现抖音一代对英语的影响，也反映语言随时代发展。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Older generations and those not on TikTok will just have to get used to words such as skibidi,which became popular thanks to The Skibidi toilet, a viral animated video that began on YouTube featuring human heads sticking out from lavatories. (老一辈人和不使用抖音的人只能慢慢习惯像skibidi这样的词，这个词因《The Skibidi toilet》这部火爆的动画视频走红，该视频最初发布在YouTube上，画面是人的脑袋从马桶里伸出来。)”及后文对该词用法、词典定义和示例的介绍可知，第三段通过具体解析skibidi一词，为前文提到的 “抖音一代催生的新词被收录词典”这一现象提供例证。故选B项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Skibidi brain-rot sums up a generation fluent in irony but starved for meaning. This kind of chaotic media serves as both entertainment and a background worldview for young men raised online. (Skibidi 这种无脑文化概括了这代人——善于讽刺却缺乏内涵。这类杂乱的媒介既是网络成长起来的年轻男性的娱乐，也是他们的世界观底色。)”可知，Escobedo用“brain-rot(脑残)”、“chaotic(杂乱的)” 等负面词汇评价skibidi文化，体现出反对态度。故选A项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“The tradwife phenomenon refers to socially conservative influencers who celebrate looking after their husbands, children and homes. (tradwife现象指那些秉持社会保守观念的网红，她们推崇照料丈夫、孩子和家庭。)”可知，tradwife指推崇打理家庭生活的人。故选C项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Skibidi, tradwife and delulu are among new words that have made it into the Cambridge Dictionary this year, confirming the increasing influence of the TikTok generation on the English language. (Skibidi、tradwife和delulu等新词今年被收录进《剑桥词典》，这印证了抖音一代对英语的影响正不断加深。)”及第二段“Internet culture is changing the English language and the effect is fascinating to observe and capture in the dictionary. (网络文化正在改变英语，这种影响在词典中观察和体现出来令人着迷。)”可知，新词源于新时代的网络文化和社会现象，其被收录体现了语言会随时代发展而更新，与时代同步。故选A项。 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。 When it comes to France, Paris might be the first choice. Japan? Tokyo. Egypt? Cairo. Of course, these are all capital cities and the best-known places in those countries. But according to travel experts, more people are choosing to skip capital cities.____16____ While Paris, Tokyo and Cairo are great places to visit with lots to see, they can also be busy and expensive. You might find a bit more space in one of the country’s smaller, and perhaps less well-known cities. ____17____ In fact, this idea is often referred to as “second-city travel”, which is used to talk about visiting the second most popular city in a region. For example, you might choose Cambridge instead of London. Travel expert Roth shared that he took a trip to Venice in Italy, but instead of staying in the tourist hotspot, he visited the nearby city of Verona._____18_____ He said he found a quieter place with “incredible food, landmarks and hidden gems.” Others say you may feel more of a connection to a smaller city and get the chance to really interact with and learn about the local people. If you attempt a great second city, you might have to do a bit of research and make more efforts._____19_____ All you need to do is make extra planning. _____20_____ Therefore, you may need to take a bus or train, which could cost you a little more. That’s why it may be a good idea to choose a place that’s not too far from a big airport. A. The key is avoiding tourist crowds entirely. B. It might take some time, but rewards await you. C. Its unique charm struck his heart immediately. D. Normally, smaller cities are not easy to fly to. E. “Second-city travel” gains their favor instead. F. Smaller cities may lack good tourism facilities. G. A few cheap items might also be available there. 【答案】16. E 17. G 18. C 19. B 20. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章指出如今更多人旅行时不再首选各国首都，转而青睐“二线城市旅行”。这类城市空间足、价格低且更安静，能深入感受当地生活，虽需额外规划和转乘交通，但值得尝试。 【16题详解】 根据上文“When it comes to France, Paris might be the first choice. Japan? Tokyo. Egypt? Cairo. Of course, these are all capital cities and the best-known places in those countries. But according to travel experts, more people are choosing to skip capital cities.(说到法国，巴黎可能是首选之地。日本？东京。埃及？开罗。当然，这些都是那些国家的首都以及最知名的景点。但据旅游专家称，越来越多的人选择避开这些首都城市)”可知，前文提到“越来越多人选择跳过首都城市”，后文围绕“二线城市旅行”展开，E选项“二线城市旅行反而受到他们的青睐”直接承接前文“跳过首都”的选择，引出核心话题“second-citytravel”，为后文展开铺垫，故选E。 【17题详解】 根据上文“While Paris, Tokyo and Cairo are great places to visit with lots to see, they can also be busy and expensive. You might find a bit more space in one of the country’s smaller, and perhaps less well-known cities.(虽然巴黎、东京和开罗都是值得游览的美丽城市，有着众多值得一看的景点，但这些地方也可能人潮拥挤且消费高昂。你或许能在该国的一些较小且或许不太为人所知的城市中找到更多的空间)”可知，前文对比首都“拥挤、昂贵”与小城市“空间更充足、知名度较低”，G选项“那里可能还能买到一些便宜的东西”补充小城市的优势（价格低廉），与前文“昂贵”形成对比，符合“推荐二线城市”的逻辑。故选G。 【18题详解】 根据上文“Travel expert Roth shared that he took a trip to Venice in Italy, but instead of staying in the tourist hotspot, he visited the nearby city of Verona.(旅行专家罗特透露，他前往了意大利的威尼斯旅行，但并非在热门旅游区停留，而是去了附近的维罗纳市)”以及后文“He said he found a quieter place with “incredible food, landmarks and hidden gems.”(他说他找到了一个更为宁静的地方，那里有着“令人惊叹的美食、地标建筑以及许多不为人知的美丽之处。”)”可知，前文提到旅行专家Roth没去威尼斯热门景点，而是去了附近的维罗纳，后文描述他的感受“更安静、有美味食物、地标和隐藏宝藏”，C选项“它独特的魅力立刻打动了他”衔接“前往维罗纳”与“正面感受”，体现旅行体验的愉悦。故选C。 【19题详解】 根据上文“Others say you may feel more of a connection to a smaller city and get the chance to really interact with and learn about the local people. If you attempt a great second city, you might have to do a bit of research and make more efforts.(还有人说，你可能会对一个较小的城市有更深的亲近感，这样你就能有机会与当地居民进行深入交流并深入了解他们。如果要选择一个很棒的二线城市，你可能需要做一些研究并付出更多努力)”可知，前文提到“选择二线城市可能需要更多研究和努力”，B选项“这可能需要一些时间，但回报在等待着你”用“but”转折，强调“努力的价值”，与后文“All you need to do is make extra planning.(你所需要做的就是做好额外的规划)”呼应，鼓励读者选择二线城市。故选B。 【20题详解】 根据后文“Therefore, you may need to take a bus or train, which could cost you a little more. That’s why it may be a good idea to choose a place that’s not too far from a big airport.(因此，你可能需要乘坐公交车或火车，这可能会让你多花一点钱。这就是为什么选择一个距离大型机场不太远的地方会是个不错的主意)”可知，后文提到“因此可能需要乘坐巴士或火车，费用可能更高”，D选项“通常，小城市不容易乘飞机到达”是前文的原因（无法直飞→需转乘地面交通），因果逻辑清晰。故选D。 第三部分语 言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Thirty-seven-year-old Logan suffered from a sudden and unexpected stroke (中风).

However, on a sunny day, I found myself wrapped up in my own world. I was comfortably seated on the sofa, drinking cool beer and attentively watching a live baseball game on TV. The excitement of the match had me completely absorbed. Suddenly, Bob burst into the room, his face lit up with excitement. “Dad, Dad, teach me how to catch the ball” he shouted, his eyes wide with anticipation. Without taking my eyes off the screen, I casually replied, “In a bit, Bob. Let me finish this round. Come back in five minutes. “Bob agreed and ran out of the room joyfully. Five minutes later, Bob returned. “Dad, let’s go Let’s play catch now” he shouted, his enthusiasm visible. But the game was still in full swing, and I was absorbed in the action. “Wait, son. The game isn’t over yet. Come back in another five minutes,” I said. Bob’s shoulders trembled (颤抖) a little, and disappointment flashed in his eyes, but he nodded and left the room again. I felt a sense of guilt, but I was too caught up in the game to pay much attention to it. When Bob came back a third time, I just opened another beer with no intention of moving. I glanced at a magazine on the coffee table. Its cover featured a large map of the world with a portrait of a famous person on the back. In a moment of frustration, I tore the cover into several pieces and threw them on the table. “Put this world map back together, and then we’ ll play catch. Don’t bother me until you’re done,” I said, hoping this would keep him occupied for a long time. Bob looked at me, his eyes filled with tears. He picked up the pieces and walked into another room, saying, “Okay, Dad. I won’t bother you until it’s done.” 主意：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。 Surprisingly, Bob returned soon with the complete map. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ A wave of shame washed over me before I made a quick decision. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Surprisingly, Bob returned soon with the complete map. I stared at it in shock, unable to believe my eyes. “How did you finish it so quickly?” I asked. Bob wiped his tears and said softly, “The portrait on the back of the map helped. I just put the person’s face together first, and the map followed easily.” His simple words hit me like a hammer. I realized how casually I had treated his eager requests and how much I had hurt him. A wave of shame washed over me before I made a quick decision. I turned off the TV, put down my beer, and took Bob’s small hand. “I’m so sorry, son. I shouldn’t have kept you waiting and treated you like that,” I said sincerely. “Let’s go play catch right now, and I’ll teach you everything I know.” Bob’s eyes lit up again, and a big smile spread across his face. We ran to the backyard, and under the warm sun, the sound of our laughter and the thud of the ball filled the air. That day, I learned that nothing is more important than cherishing the time with loved ones. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。作者爱打棒球且常与儿子鲍勃一起玩。一日作者沉迷于电视转播的棒球赛，鲍勃多次请求一起玩接球游戏，作者却用拼地图的任务打发他，鲍勃含泪接受。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段句首内容“令人惊讶的是，鲍勃很快就带着完整的地图回来了。”可知，第一段可以描写作者看到鲍勃快速完成地图后的震惊与疑惑，通过与鲍勃的对话揭示地图快速完成的原因，进而引发作者对自己之前忽视、伤害鲍勃行为的反思与愧疚。 ②由第二段句首内容“一阵羞愧感涌上心头，我立刻做了决定。”可知，第二段可以描写作者向鲍勃真诚道歉的过程，以及作者主动关掉电视、放下啤酒，兑现陪伴鲍勃玩耍的承诺，通过二人在庭院中欢乐互动的场景，升华“珍惜与亲人相处时光”的文章主旨。 2.续写线索：鲍勃快速带回完整地图——作者震惊疑惑并询问原因——鲍勃解释地图背面肖像的助力——作者反思自身行为并深感愧疚——作者真诚道歉并主动陪伴鲍勃——欢乐互动，领悟珍惜亲情的真谛 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①擦眼泪：wipe his tears/dry his eyes/rub away tears ②意识到：realize/be aware ③关掉电视：turn off the TV/switch off the television 情绪类 ①震惊：in shock/be astounded/be stunned ②真诚地：sincerely/heartfelt/genuinely 【点睛】【高分句型1】A wave of shame washed over me before I made a quick decision.

Now in his early 90s, Foster still remains true to many of the principles that guided him at the start of a career that began more than half a century ago. When he started as an architect, he believed that simply giving people a nice view to look at would make them happier. Now, he says that’s a scientific fact — and he’s still providing those views today. Many of his most famous buildings are huge and glassy. It’s a style we’ re now used to, but Foster was designing these light- filled creations at a time when Western cities were still dominated by thick blocks of concrete (混凝土). It is not because Foster has any problem with concrete — he used lots of it in Apple Park, the technology giant’s California headquarters. But that huge ring is also typical of Foster in that it brings the outside in, with vast windows and shared spaces looking out onto greenery. Perhaps his most famous building — the London building known as the “Gherkin” because of its similarity in shape to the fruit — has views that are slightly less green. But it itself can be seen from far and wide. Completed in 2004, it has become one of London’s most recognizable buildings. Although some feel the Gherkin is out of place, it is in keeping with Foster’s previous creations: the City Hall beside the Thames in London, his glassy reconstruction of the German Reichstag, and his1980s design for the HSBC building in Hong Kong. Despite some health problems later in life, Foster continues to work.“ There is never enough time to do everything I would like,” he said in 2011. Since then, he has designed Apple Park, museums, an airport, and developed the concept for the Lusail Stadium in Qatar. If the only constant is change, Foster has been a force of it in the world of architecture — and he’s not done yet. 4. What is Foster’s initial principle for architectural design? A. Buildings should be highly cost-effective. B. Design styles should keep pace with the times. C. Architecture should be based on scientific theory. D. Nice views should come first in creating buildings. 5. What is a feature of Foster’s most creations? A. fancy lighting decoration. B. Vast glass-equipped looks. C. Long architectural patterns. D. massive concrete structural forms. 6. What is the author’s purpose in referring to the Gherkin in paragraph 3? A. To display Foster’s design principles. B. To contrast it with Foster’s usual style. C. To show Foster’s global fame. D. To explain Foster’s family motto. 7. What can be learned about Foster’s career? A. He prefers historical styles to modern trends. B. His career life contradicts the principles he sticks to. C. His early beliefs are challenged by new architectural concepts. D. His consistency contributes to his lifelong creative work. C Deep in the forests of a remote South Pacific island, a New Caledonian crow (乌鸦) carefully removes a branch, tears off unwanted leaves and fashions a hook (钩子) from the wood. The crow is a perfectionist: if it makes an error, it will throw away the whole thing and start over. When it’s satisfied, the bird places the finished “hook” into a gap in the tree and fishes out a worm . The crow is one of the few birds known to make tools, a skill once thought to be unique to humans. Christian Rutz, a behavioral ecologist at the University of St Andrews, has spent much of his career studying the crow’s capabilities. The remarkable ingenuity in how crows create and use tools that Rutz observed changed his understanding of what birds can do. He started wondering if there might be other outstanding animal capacities. The crows live in complex social groups and may pass tool-making techniques on to their young. Experiments have also shown that different crow groups around the island have distinct vocalizations (发声). Rutz wanted to know whether these dialects could help explain cultural differences in tool-making among the groups. New technology powered by AI is ready to provide exactly these kinds of insights. Whether animals communicate with one another in ways we might be able to understand is a question of lasting fascination. But with recent breakthroughs in AI, “people realize that we are at the point of fairly major advances in regard to understanding animals’ communicative behavior,” Rutz says. AI may soon make it possible to reveal things like crow calls. Scientists, biologists and conservation experts are collecting a wide range of data from a variety of species and building machine learning models to analyze them. Some groups like the Project Cetacean Translation Initiative are trying to understand a particular species, in this case the sperm whale. Decoding animal vocalizations could aid conservation and welfare efforts. It could also have a surprising impact on us. The power of AI to reshape our understanding of animals will have a similar effect. These tools are going to change the way that we see ourselves in relation to everything. 8. Why does the author mention a crow in paragraph 1? A. To demonstrate a crow’s daily routine. B. To detail the hunting process of a crow. C. To describe the social structure of crows. D. To highlight crows’ tool-making skills. 9. Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word “ingenuity” in paragraph 2? A. Challenge. B. Similarity. C. Brilliance. D. Adaptability. 10. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The working principles of AI. B. Potential prospects for the animal protection. C. How AI helps to study animal communication. D. How crows’ tool-making skill inspires new research. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. The Social Behavior of Tool-Making Crows B. AI Reshapes Animal Communication Studies C. AI’s Role in Further Study of Crow Behavior D. Efforts Are Made to Improve Machine Learning D Skibidi, tradwife and delulu are among new words that have made it into the Cambridge Dictionary this year, confirming the increasing influence of the TikTok generation on the English language. For those hoping that such new words would be a passing Internet craze, the compilers (编纂者) of the dictionary say they are here to stay. “Internet culture is changing the English language and the effect is fascinating to observe and capture in the dictionary,” said its lexical programmer manager, Colin McIntosh. “We only add words where we think they’ll have staying power.” Older generations and those not on TikTok will just have to get used to words such as skibidi,which became popular thanks to The Skibidi toilet, a viral animated video that began on YouTube featuring human heads sticking out from lavatories (马桶). Children now often use the word to add emphasis to statements. The Cambridge Dictionary defines skibidi as “a word that can have different meanings such as’ cool’ or’ bad’ or can be used with no real meaning as a joke. An example of its use is: What the skibidi are you doing?” People older than Gen Alpha (born after 2010) have to greet the use of the word with discouragement. The US writer and artist Lee Escobedo is one of them, and he wrote in the Guardian this year: “Skibidi brain-rot sums up a generation fluent in irony (讽刺) but starved for meaning. This kind of chaotic media serves as both entertainment and a background worldview for young men raised online. Their minds normalise tricks as expression.” The tradwife phenomenon refers to socially conservative influencers who celebrate looking after their husbands, children and homes. Delulu, the short form of delusional (妄想), has become associated with a post truth world where personal beliefs are more important than reality. “Barchy”, a term for tech industry leaders on whose tech platforms many of such new words are spreading, also makes it into the dictionary. Other new entries include “work spouse” for workplace relationships where two people help and trust each other. 12. What is the major function of paragraph 3? A To prove the popularity of TikTok. B. To present an illustration. C. To offer an opposite point of view. D. To list challenges of learning new words. 13. What is Escobedo’s attitude towards skibidi culture? A. Opposed. B. Uncaring. C. Favorable. D. Mixed. 14. Who does the word “tradwife” refer to? A Leaders of tech platforms. B. Those who value cooperation at work. C. Those who help manage family life. D. Advocates for social equality. 15. What does the inclusion of new words reflect? A. Language keeps pace with times. B. Sei-tech has ehanged social media a lot. C. New words are accepted by all ages. D. Old vocabulary takes on new meanings. 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。 When it comes to France, Paris might be the first choice. Japan? Tokyo. Egypt?

However, on a sunny day, I found myself wrapped up in my own world. I was comfortably seated on the sofa, drinking cool beer and attentively watching a live baseball game on TV. The excitement of the match had me completely absorbed. Suddenly, Bob burst into the room, his face lit up with excitement. “Dad, Dad, teach me how to catch the ball” he shouted, his eyes wide with anticipation. Without taking my eyes off the screen, I casually replied, “In a bit, Bob. Let me finish this round. Come back in five minutes. “Bob agreed and ran out of the room joyfully. Five minutes later, Bob returned. “Dad, let’s go Let’s play catch now” he shouted, his enthusiasm visible. But the game was still in full swing, and I was absorbed in the action. “Wait, son. The game isn’t over yet. Come back in another five minutes,” I said. Bob’s shoulders trembled (颤抖) a little, and disappointment flashed in his eyes, but he nodded and left the room again. I felt a sense of guilt, but I was too caught up in the game to pay much attention to it. When Bob came back a third time, I just opened another beer with no intention of moving. I glanced at a magazine on the coffee table. Its cover featured a large map of the world with a portrait of a famous person on the back. In a moment of frustration, I tore the cover into several pieces and threw them on the table. “Put this world map back together, and then we’ ll play catch. Don’t bother me until you’re done,” I said, hoping this would keep him occupied for a long time. Bob looked at me, his eyes filled with tears. He picked up the pieces and walked into another room, saying, “Okay, Dad. I won’t bother you until it’s done.” 主意：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。 Surprisingly, Bob returned soon with the complete map. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ A wave of shame washed over me before I made a quick decision. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
