Since October 2020,Waymo,a subsidiary of Alphabet Inc.,has begun operating a driverless commercial taxi service.Having written about the possibilities of a self-driving future,I was eager to try it out. When I actually did,however,there was an undeniable horror-movie feeling to sitting in the back of a car and watching the steering wheel turn itself.But the car's driving style quickly overcame my reservations,for no Uber driver ever piloted a vehicle so conservatively.It was all so relaxing that eventually I got caught up in texting with a colleague. The annoying moment occurred when a truck driver in front of us found himself in the wrong lane.He sat there for a good long time before honking (continuously to signal us to back up so that he could drive backwards and slide into the lane to our left.Since the car was unable to pick up on social cues,the result was a standoff ()Then the car announced that it was calling a human specialist to resolve the situation.Right around the time that the truck driver apparently decided he had enough room to go backwards without our help. After a pause to confirm that the road was now clear,the car rolled silently on. The experience reminds me that some wrinkles still need to be worked out before the future becomes the present.Waymo operates in Chandler because its wide roads,few pedestrians and sunny weather reduce complications.However,humans are a major problem for self-driving cars.While these cars don't get tired or distracted,they struggle to predict how people will act in unexpected situations-something even a 10-year-old child can do better.For example,a child would have understood that the truck driver wanted us to back up. 24.What is the author's purpose in writing Paragraph 2? A.To introduce Waymo to us. B.To promote driverless taxis. C.To praise Waymo's driverless taxi service. D.To explain why he chose a driverless taxi. 25.How did the author initially feel about riding in a driverless car? A.Relaxed and secure. B.Excited but uneasy. C.Doubtful and impatient. D.Eager but disappointed. 26.What made the author feel annoyed during the ride? A.A truck driver's rude behavior. B.A truck driver's sudden cutting in on him. C.The driverless car's inability to go backwards. D.The driverless car's sliding into the wrong lane. 27.What does the author suggest about driverless cars? A.They are indeed worth a try. B.They will not be superior to humans. C.They struggle with unpredictable human behavior. D.They perform better in uncertain weather conditions. 共5页 C Blind imitation is self-destruction.To those who do not recognize their unique worth,imitation appears attractive;to those who know their strength,imitation is unacceptable In the early stages of skill or character development,imitation is helpful.When I first learned to cook.I used recipes and turned out some tasty dishes.But soon I grew bored.Why follow someone else's way of cooking when I could create my own?Imitating role models is like using training wheels on a child's bicycle; they help you get going,but once you find your own balance,you fly faster and farther without relying on them. In daily life,imitation can hurt us if we subconsciously hold poor role models.If,as a child,you observed people whose lives were bad,you may have accepted their fear and pain as normal and gone on to follow what they did.If you do not make strong choices for yourself,you will get the results of the weak choices of others. In the field of entertainment,our culture glorifies celebrities.Those stars look great on screen.But when they step off screen,their personal lives may be disastrous.If you are going to follow someone,focus on their talent,not their bad character or unacceptable behaviors. Blessed is the person willing to act on their sudden desire to create something unique.Think of the movies, books,teachers,and friends that have affected you most deeply.They touched you because their creations were motivated by inspiration,not desperation.The world is changed not by those who do what has been done before them,but by those who do what has been done inside them.Creative people have an endless resource of ideas The problem a creator faces is not running out of material;it is what to do with the material knocking at the door of imagination. Study your role models,accept the gifts they have given,and leave behind what does not serve.Then you can say,"I stand on the shoulders of my ancestors'tragedies and declare victory,and know that they are cheering 0n. 28.Imitation proves useful when you A.know you are unique B.lose the balance of life C.begin to learn something new D.get tired of routine practice 29.What does the underlined word"glorifies"'in paragraph 4 mean? A.complains. B.beautifies. C.dominates. D.refuses. 30.The trouble a creator faces is A.the lack of strong motivation B.the absence of practical ideas C.how to search for more materials D.how to use imagination creatively 31.What is the author's purpose in writing this passage? A.To highlight the importance of creativity. B.To criticize the characters of role models. C.To compare imitation with creation. D.To explain the meaning of success 第3页， D Superhuman artificial intelligence has played a role in our life.When it comes to playing games like chess, or solving difficult scientific challenges like predicting protein structures,computers are well ahead of humans. But we have one superpower they aren't close to mastering:mind reading. We are blessed with a mysterious ability to reason the goals,desires and beliefs of others,a crucial skill that means we can anticipate other people's actions and the consequences of our own.If AIs are to become truly useful in everyday life-to cooperate effectively with us or to understand that a child might run into the road after a bouncing ball-we have to give them this gift that evolution has given us to read other people's minds. In psychology,the ability to infer another's mental state is referred to as theory of mind.In humans,this capacity develops at a very young age.How to reproduce the capability in machines is far from clear,though? One of the main challenges is context.For instance,if someone asks whether you are going for a run and you reply"it's raining",they can quickly conclude the answer is no.But this requires huge amounts of background knowledge about running,weather and human preferences. Besides,whether humans or AI,the theory of mind is supposed to emerge naturally from one's own learning process.Building prior knowledge into AI makes it reliant on our imperfect understanding of theory of mind.In addition,AI may be capable of developing approaches we could never imagine.There can be many forms of theory of mind that we don't know about simply because we live in a human body that has certain types of senses and a certain ability to think. But we might still want AI to have a more human-like form of theory of mind.Humans can clearly explain their goals to each other using common language and ideas.While letting AI form the theory of mind in their learning process is likely to lead to developing more powerful AI,plainly building in shared ways to represent knowledge may be crucial for humans to trust and communicate with Al. It is important to remember,though,that the pursuit of machines with theory of mind is about more than just building more useful robots.It is also a stepping stone on the path towards a deeper goal for AI and robotics research:building truly self-aware machines.Whether we will ever get there remains to be seen.But along the way thinking about other people and other agents,we are on the path to learning to think about ourselves. 32.According to the passage,which of the following contexts can AI understand well? A.When asked where an object is,a naughty kid points in the wrong direction. B.When a teacher asks for a boy's homework,he answers"my dog ate it". C.When you are treated with a hotpot for dinner,you reply"a sore throat". D.When a mom tells her kid milk is good for health,the kid drinks it up. 33.Which statement will the author agree with most about theory of mind? A.Humans'theory of mind is far from perfect. B.Humans limit AI's theory of mind to an extent. C.AI's theory of mind development has been totally decoded. D.Shared forms of theory of mind result in more powerful AI 34.What is the author's attitude toward truly self-aware machines? A.Ambiguous. B.Conservative. C.Skeptical. D.Approving. 35.What is the main idea of the passage? A.AI's theory of mind will define our future B.It is expected that AI may have its own theory of mind. C.AI's theory of mind will bring both benefits and sufferings to human beings D.Theory of mind bridges the gap between humans and AI 共5页 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Socrates,the renowned ancient Greek philosopher,famously stated,"The unexamined life is not worth living."36 He believed true wisdom and personal growth couldn't be achieved in an unexamined life The Socratic Method,named after Socrates himself,is a form of cooperative dialogue where one asks a series of open-ended questions to guide another toward insight and understanding.For example,imagine a teacher discussing moralities with students.The teacher may not explain what is"right"or "wrong".37 And follow up with questions like,"Why do we consider some actions fair and others unfair?"Through this questioning,students are led to think more critically and examine their own values and assumptions rather than just accepting the predetermined answers. 38 When you ask yourself,for instance,"Why do you believe this?"or "What evidence supports your thinking?",you are encouraged to consider whether your beliefs are truly your own or influenced by external factors. This process of questioning leads to self-reflection,helping individuals better understand the underlying motivations behind their thoughts and actions. Self-reflection is like hitting the pause button on life.39 And it also looks closely at your own thoughts, feelings,and experiences.An unexamined life,however,is one where people go through the motions without ever questioning.Living an unexamined life is similar to coasting on automatic pilot,where one simply accepts social standards without critically evaluating them.In this kind of life,you're swept along by society's expectations. 40 It seems as if you're living someone else's script without ever writing your own A.You are barely aware of your own desires. B.It gives you a moment to step back. C.So they can follow a"right"'or "fair"action. D.This powerful declaration serves as a call to dig deeper into one's own thoughts. E.The Socratic Method is a powerful tool for self-examination. F.Instead,he or she might ask "What does it mean to act morally?" G.You are always stuck in your own ceaseless work. 第4页， 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。 Brandon Garrett was driving on a forest service road when he lost control of his truck on a curve and tumbled (down the steep slope.The 62-year-old was 41 with his four dogs to a camp nearly four miles from the scene of the accident. One of those dogs,Blue,ran away from the 42 site and headed to the familiar campsite where Garrett was 43 to meet his friend Tyree that afternoon.When Blue showed up 44,with glass on his nose,Tyree knew something wasn't 45.He searched for Garret and finally 46 his truck.The steep terrain ()however,made it impossible for him to reach the vehicle.

This groundbreaking competition represented a crucial transition from controlled laboratory testing to real- world application.Unlike artificial lab environments,the marathon's unpredictable outdoor conditions tested the robots'adaptability and 58 (endure)capabilities.Beyond sports,such robots are already in use-for example,the specialized inspection robots developed by China Southern Power Grid,can operate 59 (reliable)in temperature extremes ranging from 40C to 80C while maintaining power lines in remote 60(mountain)regions. Since the beginning of this year,Chinese tech giants like Xiaomi and Huawei,well aware of the opportunities, 61 (join)forces with automotive leaders including Tesla and Toyota in 62 has become an international race to advance this technology.However,experts caution that63 rapid progress,significant technical hurdles remain.Most robots currently operate at Level 2 autonomy but achieving Level 4-full independence-needs breakthroughs in AI decision-making. For students considering future careers in technology,humanoid robotics represents one of the most exciting and promising fields 64 may transform industries and daily life.The successful Beijing marathon serves as both a testament to how far we have come and a preview of the remarkable innovations still 65 (come) 第四部分写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 假定你是李华，你校将举办“经典文化探索展(Classic Culture Exploration Exhibition)”,并进行网络直 播((livestream)。请你给外国笔友Hans写封邮件，邀请他在线观看。 内容包括： 1.活动介绍； 2.观看时间、方式： 3.表达期待。 注意： 1.写作词数应为80左右： 2.请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。 Dear Hans, I'm Li Hua from Qianhuang Senior High School.

After our meeting,we left the newsroom together and heard someone screaming,"Perry is missing!"Perry was a big red parrot and had been our school mascot()for ten years.He played an important role in students'lives,both in and out of class.He had also been a constant presence at school events,inspiring a sense of unity among students. Everyone gathered around Perry's empty cage,heartbroken.Suddenly,a student from the crowd came over and showed me a photo."You're a reporter for the school paper,right?I happened to take this yesterday,"he said.In the photo was a Deerfield High School basketball player with something large hidden under his shirt around the size of a parrot. "He must have stolen Perry to get back at us for winning the game!"Ashley cried.We hurried back to the newsroom,agreeing to run the photo on the front page with the headline"Deerfield Stole Perry.""This is just the story we need.Everyone will read it,"Ashley said confidently. After she left,I took a closer look at the photo.The clock in the background read 4:15 pm,but our game against Deerfield hadn't started until 4:30 pm.Why would the boy have taken Perry before we even played? An uneasy feeling came over me that we might have falsely accused someone. I went to Perry's usual caretaker to ask if he knew Perry was missing."He's not missing.He's retired. He's ready for some quieter days,"he said.Learning the truth,I immediately told Ashley and suggested writing a story to say goodbye to Perry. Paragraph 1:To my surprise,Ashley insisted on reporting the "Deerfield Stole Perry"story Paragraph 2:On Thursday,the paper came out with the headline "Bye-Bye,Perry"on the front page. 共5页 2027届高二年级上学期期中考试 英语试卷 考试时间：120分钟 满分：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.

I pulled out my phone, opened an app and ordered a ride. This might sound like a dull story, but there was one exceptional thing: The car had no driver. Since October 2020, Waymo, a subsidiary of Alphabet Inc., has begun operating a driverless commercial taxi service. Having written about the possibilities of a self-driving future, I was eager to try it out. When I actually did, however, there was an undeniable horror-movie feeling to sitting in the back of a car and watching the steering wheel turn itself. But the car’s driving style quickly overcame my reservations, for no Uber driver ever piloted a vehicle so conservatively. It was all so relaxing that eventually I got caught up in texting with a colleague. The annoying moment occurred when a truck driver in front of us found himself in the wrong lane. He sat there for a good long time before honking (按喇叭) continuously to signal us to back up so that he could drive backwards and slide into the lane to our left. Since the car was unable to pick up on social cues, the result was a standoff (僵局). Then the car announced that it was calling a human specialist to resolve the situation. Right around the time that the truck driver apparently decided he had enough room to go backwards without our help. After a pause to confirm that the road was now clear, the car rolled silently on. The experience reminds me that some wrinkles still need to be worked out before the future becomes the present. Waymo operates in Chandler because its wide roads, few pedestrians and sunny weather reduce complications. However, humans are a major problem for self-driving cars. While these cars don’t get tired or distracted, they struggle to predict how people will act in unexpected situations—something even a 10-year-old child can do better. For example, a child would have understood that the truck driver wanted us to back up. 24. What is the author’s purpose in writing Paragraph 2? A. To introduce Waymo to us. B. To promote driverless taxis. C. To praise Waymo’s driverless taxi service. D. To explain why he chose a driverless taxi. 25. How did the author initially feel about riding in a driverless car? A. Relaxed and secure. B. Excited but uneasy. C. Doubtful and impatient. D. Eager but disappointed. 26. What made the author feel annoyed during the ride? A. A truck driver’s rude behavior. B. A truck driver’s sudden cutting in on him. C. The driverless car’s inability to go backwards. D. The driverless car’s sliding into the wrong lane. 27. What does the author suggest about driverless cars? A. They are indeed worth a try. B. They will not be superior to humans. C. They struggle with unpredictable human behavior. D. They perform better in uncertain weather conditions. C Blind imitation is self-destruction. To those who do not recognize their unique worth, imitation appears attractive; to those who know their strength, imitation is unacceptable. In the early stages of skill or character development, imitation is helpful. When I first learned to cook. I used recipes and turned out some tasty dishes. But soon I grew bored. Why follow someone else’s way of cooking when I could create my own? Imitating role models is like using training wheels on a child’s bicycle; they help you get going, but once you find your own balance, you fly faster and farther without relying on them. In daily life, imitation can hurt us if we subconsciously hold poor role models. If, as a child, you observed people whose lives were bad, you may have accepted their fear and pain as normal and gone on to follow what they did. If you do not make strong choices for yourself, you will get the results of the weak choices of others. In the field of entertainment, our culture glorifies celebrities. Those stars look great on screen. But when they step off screen, their personal lives may be disastrous. If you are going to follow someone, focus on their talent, not their bad character or unacceptable behaviors. Blessed is the person willing to act on their sudden desire to create something unique. Think of the movies, books, teachers, and friends that have affected you most deeply. They touched you because their creations were motivated by inspiration, not desperation. The world is changed not by those who do what has been done before them, but by those who do what has been done inside them. Creative people have an endless resource of ideas. The problem a creator faces is not running out of material; it is what to do with the material knocking at the door of imagination. Study your role models, accept the gifts they have given, and leave behind what does not serve. Then you can say, “I stand on the shoulders of my ancestors’ tragedies and declare victory, and know that they are cheering on.” 28. Imitation proves useful when you ________. A. know you are unique B. lose the balance of life C. begin to learn something new D. get tired of routine practice 29. What does the underlined word “glorifies” in paragraph 4 mean? A. complains. B. beautifies. C. dominates. D. refuses. 30. The trouble a creator faces is ________. A. the lack of strong motivation B. the absence of practical ideas C. how to search for more materials D. how to use imagination creatively 31. What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage? A. To highlight the importance of creativity. B. To criticize the characters of role models. C. To compare imitation with creation. D. To explain the meaning of success. D Superhuman artificial intelligence has played a role in our life. When it comes to playing games like chess, or solving difficult scientific challenges like predicting protein structures, computers are well ahead of humans. But we have one superpower they aren’t close to mastering: mind reading. We are blessed with a mysterious ability to reason the goals, desires and beliefs of others, a crucial skill that means we can anticipate other people’s actions and the consequences of our own. If AIs are to become truly useful in everyday life — to cooperate effectively with us or to understand that a child might run into the road after a bouncing ball — we have to give them this gift that evolution has given us to read other people's minds. In psychology, the ability to infer another’s mental state is referred to as theory of mind. In humans, this capacity develops at a very young age. How to reproduce the capability in machines is far from clear, though? One of the main challenges is context. For instance, if someone asks whether you are going for a run and you reply “it’s raining”, they can quickly conclude the answer is no. But this requires huge amounts of background knowledge about running, weather and human preferences. Besides, whether humans or AI, the theory of mind is supposed to emerge naturally from one’s own learning process. Building prior knowledge into AI makes it reliant on our imperfect understanding of theory of mind. In addition, AI may be capable of developing approaches we could never imagine. There can be many forms of theory of mind that we don’t know about simply because we live in a human body that has certain types of senses and a certain ability to think. But we might still want AI to have a more human-like form of theory of mind. Humans can clearly explain their goals to each other using common language and ideas. While letting AI form the theory of mind in their learning process is likely to lead to developing more powerful AI, plainly building in shared ways to represent knowledge may be crucial for humans to trust and communicate with AI. It is important to remember, though, that the pursuit of machines with theory of mind is about more than just building more useful robots. It is also a stepping stone on the path towards a deeper goal for AI and robotics research: building truly self-aware machines. Whether we will ever get there remains to be seen. But along the way thinking about other people and other agents, we are on the path to learning to think about ourselves. 32. According to the passage, which of the following contexts can AI understand well? A. When asked where an object is, a naughty kid points in the wrong direction. B. When a teacher asks for a boy’s homework, he answers “my dog ate it”. C. When you are treated with a hotpot for dinner, you reply “a sore throat”. D. When a mom tells her kid milk is good for health, the kid drinks it up. 33. Which statement will the author agree with most about theory of mind? A. Humans’ theory of mind is far from perfect. B. Humans limit AI’s theory of mind to an extent. C. AI’s theory of mind development has been totally decoded. D. Shared forms of theory of mind result in more powerful AI. 34. What is the author’s attitude toward truly self-aware machines? A. Ambiguous. B. Conservative. C. Skeptical. D. Approving. 35. What is the main idea of the passage? A. AI’s theory of mind will define our future B. It is expected that AI may have its own theory of mind. C. AI’s theory of mind will bring both benefits and sufferings to human beings D. Theory of mind bridges the gap between humans and AI 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Socrates, the renowned ancient Greek philosopher, famously stated, “The unexamined life is not worth living.”___36___ He believed true wisdom and personal growth couldn’t be achieved in an unexamined life. The Socratic Method, named after Socrates himself, is a form of cooperative dialogue where one asks a series of open-ended questions to guide another toward insight and understanding. For example, imagine a teacher discussing moralities with students. The teacher may not explain what is “right” or “wrong”. ___37___ And follow up with questions like, “Why do we consider some actions fair and others unfair?” Through this questioning, students are led to think more critically and examine their own values and assumptions rather than just accepting the predetermined answers. ___38___When you ask yourself, for instance, “Why do you believe this?” or “What evidence supports your thinking?”, you are encouraged to consider whether your beliefs are truly your own or influenced by external factors. This process of questioning leads to self-reflection, helping individuals better understand the underlying motivations behind their thoughts and actions. Self-reflection is like hitting the pause button on life. ___39___And it also looks closely at your own thoughts, feelings, and experiences. An unexamined life, however, is one where people go through the motions without ever questioning. Living an unexamined life is similar to coasting on automatic pilot, where one simply accepts social standards without critically evaluating them. In this kind of life, you’re swept along by society’s expectations. ___40___It seems as if you’re living someone else’s script without ever writing your own. A. You are barely aware of your own desires. B. It gives you a moment to step back. C. So they can follow a “right” or “fair” action. D. This powerful declaration serves as a call to dig deeper into one’s own thoughts. E. The Socratic Method is a powerful tool for self-examination. F. Instead, he or she might ask “What does it mean to act morally?” G. You are always stuck in your own ceaseless work. 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。 Brandon Garrett was driving on a forest service road when he lost control of his truck on a curve and tumbled (跌落) down the steep slope.

We need better stories for this Thursday’s school newspaper. Does anybody have any ideas?” she said. I handed her my article about our basketball team beating Deerfield High School the previous night by one point. “Sports stories are fun,” she said, “but not good enough for the front page. We need something to really get people’s attention.” After our meeting, we left the newsroom together and heard someone screaming, “Perry is missing!” Perry was a big red parrot and had been our school mascot(吉祥物) for ten years. He played an important role in students’ lives, both in and out of class. He had also been a constant presence at school events, inspiring a sense of unity among students. Everyone gathered around Perry’s empty cage, heartbroken. Suddenly, a student from the crowd came over and showed me a photo. “You’re a reporter for the school paper, right? I happened to take this yesterday,” he said. In the photo was a Deerfield High School basketball player with something large hidden under his shirt around the size of a parrot. “He must have stolen Perry to get back at us for winning the game!” Ashley cried. We hurried back to the newsroom, agreeing to run the photo on the front page with the headline “Deerfield Stole Perry.” “This is just the story we need. Everyone will read it,” Ashley said confidently. After she left, I took a closer look at the photo. The clock in the background read 4:15 pm, but our game against Deerfield hadn’t started until 4:30 pm. Why would the boy have taken Perry before we even played? An uneasy feeling came over me that we might have falsely accused someone. I went to Perry’s usual caretaker to ask if he knew Perry was missing. “He’s not missing. He’s retired.

Yours, Li Hua 读后续写解析： 主题：坚持报道事实; 诚信；正直 原文大意： 故事围绕校报编辑部寻找头版新闻展开。学校吉祥物鹦鹉Perry失踪，一张照片似乎指向竞争对手Deerfield高中为报复篮球赛失利而实施了盗窃。然而，“我”通过仔细调查（照片时钟时间、询问饲养员），发现了真相：Perry并非被偷，而是退休了。主编Ashley不顾真相，坚持要报道虚假的“盗窃”故事以博取关注，而“我”则面临新闻真实性与道德之间的抉择。 Para1 To my surprise, Ashley insisted on reporting the “Deerfield Stole Perry” story. 本段主要写我坚守真相与说服Ashley。 1. 我和Ashley争辩，Ashley以阅读量为由，坚持报道不实故事。我反驳指出明知真相但报道虚假新闻是不对的。 2. 我的行动：我收集证据，最终查明照片中球员衣服下是玩具奖杯而非鹦鹉。我用确凿证据说服Ashley，她最终改变主意。（这部分怎么查明真相的可以灵活处理，只要言之有物，逻辑合理即可） Para2 On Thursday, the paper came out with the headline “Bye-Bye, Perry” on the front page. 1. 报道发布与反响：引发了全校师生对Perry的不舍与深情告别，报道获得高度认同。 2. 更重要的是我们的做法避免了一场对他人不公平的诬陷。 3. 主题升华：唯有坚持诚信、尊重事实，才能创作出真正打动人心、经得起时间考验的故事，这是优秀新闻工作最根本的品质。 参考范文： To my surprise, Ashley insisted on reporting the “Deerfield Stole Perry” story. She stubbornly believed that this controversial piece would undoubtedly attract widespread attention and save the declining newspaper. I protested, arguing that basing such a serious accusation on unconvincing evidence was irresponsible and would harm inter-school solidarity. Determined to uncover the truth, I investigated overnight and discovered the item under the player’s shirt was merely a toy trophy. Confronted with the new evidence, Ashley finally softened. Touched by my persistence, she agreed to replace the original story with a heartfelt farewell piece honoring Perry’s decade of service. On Thursday, the paper came out with the headline “Bye-Bye, Perry” on the front page. Amazingly, it was met with an overwhelming response from teachers and students, many expressing that the sincere writing touched their hearts by reviving precious memories. It was this genuine emotional connection that resonated, leading to a significant expansion of our readership. More remarkably, we reported the truth without falsely accusing anyone. This experience impressed on us a lifelong lesson that only by maintaining integrity and respecting facts could we create stories that truly moved people and stood the test of time, which was the most fundamental quality of excellent journalism. 【七选五详解】 本文是一篇议论文。文章以苏格拉底的名言“未经审视的生活是不值得过的”为切入点，介绍了苏格拉底方法，并阐述了自我反思的重要性以及未经审视的生活的弊端。 【36题详解】上文“Socrates, the renowned ancient Greek philosopher, famously stated, ‘The unexamined life is not worth living.’(著名的古希腊哲学家苏格拉底有句名言：‘未经审视的生活是不值得过的’)”引出了苏格拉底的这句名言。D选项“This powerful declaration serves as a call to dig deeper into one’s own thoughts.(这句有力的宣言呼吁人们更深入地挖掘自己的思想)”对这句名言进行了进一步解读，说明其作用是引导人们深入思考自己的思想，与上文逻辑紧密。故选D项。 【37题详解】上文“The teacher may not explain what is ‘right’ or ‘wrong’.(老师可能不会解释什么是‘对’或‘错’)”表明老师不会直接给出对错的定义。F选项“Instead, he or she might ask ‘What does it mean to act morally?’(相反，他或她可能会问 ‘道德行事意味着什么? ’)”与上文形成转折，说明老师会通过提问的方式引导学生思考，符合苏格拉底方法中通过提问引导他人思考的特点，上下文衔接自然。故选F项。 【38题详解】下文“When you ask yourself, for instance, ‘Why do you believe this?’ or ‘What evidence supports your thinking?’(例如，当你问自己‘你为什么相信这个?’或‘有什么证据支持你的想法?’)”具体说明了自我审视时的提问方式。E选项“The Socratic Method is a powerful tool for self-examination.(苏格拉底方法是一种强大的自我审视工具)”起到了承上启下的作用，既承接上文对苏格拉底方法的介绍，又引出下文关于自我审视的具体内容。故选E项。 【39题详解】上文“Self-reflection is like hitting the pause button on life.(自我反思就像按下生活的暂停键)”将自我反思比喻为暂停键。B选项“It gives you a moment to step back.(它给你一个退后一步思考的时刻)”进一步解释了按下暂停键的意义，即让人有时间退后一步思考，与上文逻辑一致。故选B项。 【40题详解】上文“Living an unexamined life is similar to coasting on automatic pilot, where one simply accepts social standards without critically evaluating them. In this kind of life, you’re swept along by society’s expectations.(过一种未经审视的生活就像在自动驾驶状态下滑行，人们只是简单地接受社会标准而不进行批判性评估。在这种生活中，你会被社会的期望所裹挟)”描述了未经审视的生活的状态。A选项“You are barely aware of your own desires.(你几乎意识不到自己的欲望)”进一步说明了在这种生活状态下的结果，即人们会忽略自己的欲望，上下文语意连贯。故选A项。 听力材料 Text 1（谈论天气） W: Hi, Larry.

When I started using Al at my clinic, it felt like I had even more to manage before things settled down.

The last time I saw him was a week ago. M: Why do you remember it so clearly? W: Because my brother missed my 18th birthday party that day. M: I bet he was really regretful. W: Yes.

He also shares the beautiful photos online, like images of an old man sitting by the river, or children running around and waving colorful fish lanterns. One of his favorites is a little girl holding a cartoon umbrella and building a snowman in the heavy snow. “Golly, the girl was me when I was little!" a young Chinese netizen commented. Lecomte still has a photo of his childhood home a house with a red roof, surrounded by forests. “When I was a child, I loved camping in forests with my friends. I could see the stars.
