She said putting her feet into the soft leather was very emotional. She said: “I’ve waited a long time for it.” A few days later, Leverton took her first ballet class after seeing an advertisement in a newspaper. It showed older women dancing in a class near Leverton’s house. “As I came in the door, I found a big smile on my face. From the minute I started, I felt like coming home.” Leverton had longed to dance as a child. Sadly, her parents couldn’t afford ballet classes, for they were first-generation Indian immigrants, struggling to make a living in the UK. Her father was a train driver on the underground in London and her mother held two cleaning jobs. Nonetheless, she harboured her dream of being a ballerina (芭蕾舞女演员). At her present age, a grand plie-lowering to the floor with bent knees-seemed to be out of the question. It took her three months to master the move: leaping and landing on one foot. ” I love the struggle and the challenge of learning something new. People in their 60s have a lot of self-limiting beliefs: ‘I can’t do it,’ ‘I’m not good enough.’ And maybe they’re not good enough. But it doesn’t matter,” she said. Ballet has been transformative. At a medical appointment a few months after Leverton’s first class, a nurse measured her at 163cm, half an inch taller than she had thought. She attributes (归因) the difference to improved posture. Her muscle tone has improved and her lower back pain has stopped. Dancing has also brought new friends. She met a group of older, more independent women and worked together towards a team award with the Royal Academy of Dance. And then, of course, there is the joyful feeling. “Ballet is all the therapy (治疗) I’ll ever need,” said Leverton. 24. How did Leverton feel after taking her dance lesson? A. Tired. B. Confused. C. Shocked. D. Thrilled. 25. Why didn’t Leverton learn to dance she was young? A. Her family was badly off. B. She wasn’t able to leap high. C. Her family laughed at her dream. D. She had to focus on classes. 26. What did dancing bring to Leverton? A. A team award. B. Money and fame. C. Friendship and joy. D. A medical treatment. 27. What can we learn from Leverton’s story? A. Hard work pays off. B. Never too old to pursue dreams. C. Interest is the key to success. D. Money isn’t everything. C One of the greatest killers in the Western world is heart disease. The death rate from the disease has been increasing at an alarming speed for the past thirty years. Today in Britain, for example, about four hundred people a day die of heart disease. Medical experts know that people can reduce their chances of getting heart disease by exercising regularly, by not smoking, by changing their diets, and by paying more attention to reducing stress in their work. However, Western health-care systems are still not paying enough attention to the prevention of the disease. There is a need for more programs to educate the public about the causes and prevention of heart disease. Instead of supporting such programs, however, the U. S. health-care system is spending large sums of money on the surgical treatment of the disease after it develops. This emphasis on treatment clearly has something to do with the technological advances that have taken place in the past ten to fifteen years. In this time, modern technology has enabled doctors to develop new surgical techniques. Many operations that were considered impossible or too risky a few years ago are now performed every day in U. S. hospitals. The result has been a huge increase in heart surgery. Although there is no doubt that heart surgery can help a large number of people, some people point out that the emphasis on the surgical treatment of the disease has three clear disadvantages. First, it attracts interest and money away from the question of prevention. Second, it causes the costs of general hospital care to rise. After hospitals buy the expensive equipment that is necessary for modern heart surgery, they must try to recover the money they have spent. To do this, they raise costs for all their patients, not just those patients whose treatment requires the equipment. The third disadvantage is that doctors are encouraged to perform surgery even on patients for whom an operation is unnecessary - because the equipment and expert skills are there. A government office recently stated that major heart surgery was often performed even though its chances of success were low. In one type of heart surgery, for example, only 15 percent of patients improved their conditions after the surgery. However, more than 100,000 of these operations are performed in the United States every year. 28. What effect has modern technology had on medicine? A. It has reduced the costs of medical treatment. B. It hasn’t helped save any patients. C. It has encouraged doctors to do more heart surgery. D. It has helped educate people about the prevention of heart disease. 29. What does the underlined word “recover” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Repair. B. Obtain. C. Get back. D. Pick up. 30. The author would agree that ________. A. heart surgery has helped all patients improve their conditions. B. more money should be spent on the prevention of heart disease. C. modern technology has made heart surgery more risky than before. D. the public have known a great deal about the causes of heart disease. 31. Which would be the best title for the passage? A. The Greatest Killer in the West B. Heart Surgery: Benefits C. Old Technology and Heart Surgery D. Heart Disease: Treat or Prevent? D Scientists near San Francisco work to identify a type of endangered fish using a tool that was originally made for treating cancer. Currently, CRISPR is used to change the genetic material in specific cells. By changing the structure of immune cells, it helps recognize and fight cancer. The same technology is now used in a special machine called Sherlock, which, of course, is named after the famous investigator Sherlock Holmes. They do not, however, use Sherlock to change fish cells. Instead, the ocean researchers catch the fish, collect a small amount of mucus (黏液) and then test the cells to find the genetic makeup of the fish. The researchers have found that the technology is extremely helpful when looking at different species of Chinook salmon, because they look nearly the same. It can be done in about 30 minutes. In the past, the researchers would have to wait weeks or months to get test results. In the past, the scientists would catch the Chinook salmon and measure them to tell them apart. “It’s not very accurate,” said Andrea Schreier, an associate professor at the University of California in Davis, who is working on the salmon. Schreier said when they catch the fish, the Sherlock machine can quickly tell them if they have one of the special salmon. It’s important because it allows the scientists to do things that will help the endangered salmon live longer. For example, they can catch them in lakes far away from the coast and take them by truck to the San Francisco Bay. In the past, the fish might have tried to make it to the Bay by swimming in rivers. However, due to climate change, the river water is sometimes too warm for the fish to make the trip safely. Schreier said she feels good about the project because she likes being able to assist with conservation. “I really want to work to maintain our ecosystems and our native populations as much as possible, given all of the pressures that we humans place on them through our different activities.’’ 32. Which of the following best describe the technology? A. Impractical. B. Inaccurate. C. Efficient. D. Economical. 33. What do the new technology and the traditional way have in common? A. They test the fish mucus to tell them apart. B. They are carried out by researchers in the lab. C. They originally aimed at detecting cancer. D. They help researchers tell different salmons apart. 34. What can be inferred about the Chinook salmons? A. They will soon die out. B. They are of the same size. C. They are used to cool water. D. They are now well protected. 35. What do we know about Andrea Schreier from the text? A. She thinks humans are greatly pressured. B. She is rather devoted to the conservation. C. She is unsatisfied with her work. D. She thinks her work needs improvement. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Will AI Replace Teachers? The AI teacher is also known as the mechanical teacher. ____36____ It’s a computer or machine that can teach a student according to the level it’s programmed to teach. While the thought of a reliable computer teaching your child might seem promising, AI cannot adapt its teaching to its students during mid-lesson or read its students’ emotions as a human teacher can. ____37____ It also cannot inspire its students as a human teacher can. The biggest benefit of the human teacher is that he or she gives students human connections they need. There are some who believe that teachers will be completely replaced by robots by the year 2027. Human teachers do carry with them some disadvantages. Some teachers can be of poor character. Others can have a compromising character or not be as knowledgeable about particular subjects as they should be. ____38____ If you ask anyone the top qualities of a good teacher, AI cannot meet these standards. They include friendly attitude, listening skills, respectful attitude, strong work ethic, patience, discipline skills, and so forth. AI cannot replace teachers. ____39____ Students long for the student-teacher bond, cooperation, and love. ____40____ It makes the human teacher’s job easier and helps him or her to be more efficient.

The two things are what an AI teacher would struggle to provide. A. It is exactly what it sounds like. B. AI cannot give a child what he or she needs. C. However, this does not mean that AI is not necessary. D. Frankly speaking, students have their own disadvantages too. E. Luckily, the good news is that AI shows more respect for teachers. F. These drawbacks can be corrected, though, through proper monitoring. G. It fails to simplify problems students have unless it’s programmed to do so. 第II卷 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，从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Sidney Poitier, a remarkable actor and director, was born to a Bahamian farmer’s family.

Since then, he had diligently walked a neighbor’s dog and weeded his neighbors’ gardens to earn money for one figurine. Finally he had enough money for one and raced towards the corner shop. Lost in excitement, he accidentally tripped over a homeless old man seated against a wall in the cold, quickly murmuring an apology before continuing on his way. Inside the shop, Jack glanced at the shelves displaying Hulk, Thor, Captain America, Iron Man, and other beloved heroes. His heart raced as he reached for the Spiderman. “You’re a fan, right?” a friendly voice appeared behind him. Jack turned to see the shopkeeper, an elderly man with a warm smile. “Yes, they’re amazing!” Jack said. “They’re strong, and they help so many people. They have super power. I wish I could be a superhero too.” “You can be,” the shopkeeper encouraged. Surprised, Jack asked, “But how? I don’t have any super power.” Smiling softly, the shopkeeper bent down, placing his hands on Jack’s arms. “Why would you need them?” he replied kindly. “See that woman over there? She needs to take care of three children. However, she still actively helps the elderly in the community. And do you know Jimmy? He is a firefighter who has saved countless lives. Being a hero isn’t about super power; it’s about what’s in your heart.” Locking eyes with Jack, the shopkeeper smiled. “You don’t need super power to be a hero. It starts with your heart.” 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。 Hearing what the shopkeeper said, Jack was lost in thought. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ With relief, Jack found the homeless old man still sitting against the wall. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 横峰中学2025-2026学年度第一学期 高二年级期中考试英语学科试卷 考试时长：120分钟 试卷满分：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） 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What does the man say about Jack?

B 【解析】 【原文】M: After longing for his stolen guitar for almost half a century, Canadian rock star Randy Bachman has finally been reunited with the instrument, which an eagle-eyed fan tracked down in Japan. Bachman, who wrote the original “American Woman” with his band The Guess Who, recovered his guitar in Tokyo — 46 years after his cherished guitar was stolen from a Toronto hotel. “With that guitar, I wrote many million-selling songs...it was like my magical guitar. And then when it’s suddenly gone, the magic is gone.” Bachman said. He bought the guitar as a teenager in the early 1960s with $400 saved up from washing cars and babysitting. He had long admired the instrument, spending hours staring at it in a shop window with his friend and fellow musician Neil Young. Over the decades, Bachman hunted for his guitar. A Canadian fan, William Long, decided to help with the search in 2020. “Yeah, I’m a detective,” Long said. “I was confident I was going to find it.” Finally he found that a Japanese musician called Takeshi played Bachman’s beloved guitar in a video. Takeshi bought Bachman’s guitar in 2014 for around 850,000 yen ($6,300). Long alerted Bachman to his discovery, and the musicians arranged to meet in Tokyo to exchange Bachman’s original guitar with another of the same type, also made in 1957. 第二部分：阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。 A Island of Adventure at Universal Orlando in Florida People say that it is the home of the “Harry Potter Theme Park”.

Buy online and save $3 per person.(成人40美元。3 -15岁和60岁以上24美元。在网上购买，每人可节省3美元)”可知，如果一对夫妇想带着他们5岁的儿子去温莎乐高主题公园游玩，他们需要在网上预订时支付40+40+24-3-3-3=95美元。故选C。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据Island of Adventure at Universal Orlando in Florida部分中“It is open from Monday to Saturday.(它从星期一到星期六开放)”可知，吉姆星期天无法参观冒险岛。故选A。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。文章围绕四个主题公园，详细介绍了各自的特色项目、开放时间和门票价格，核心是为游客提供出行选择的相关信息，符合旅游指南的内容定位。故选C项。 B Tina Leverton was 62 when she bought her first pair of ballet shoes. She said putting her feet into the soft leather was very emotional. She said: “I’ve waited a long time for it.” A few days later, Leverton took her first ballet class after seeing an advertisement in a newspaper. It showed older women dancing in a class near Leverton’s house. “As I came in the door, I found a big smile on my face. From the minute I started, I felt like coming home.” Leverton had longed to dance as a child. Sadly, her parents couldn’t afford ballet classes, for they were first-generation Indian immigrants, struggling to make a living in the UK. Her father was a train driver on the underground in London and her mother held two cleaning jobs. Nonetheless, she harboured her dream of being a ballerina (芭蕾舞女演员). At her present age, a grand plie-lowering to the floor with bent knees-seemed to be out of the question. It took her three months to master the move: leaping and landing on one foot. ” I love the struggle and the challenge of learning something new. People in their 60s have a lot of self-limiting beliefs: ‘I can’t do it,’ ‘I’m not good enough.’ And maybe they’re not good enough. But it doesn’t matter,” she said. Ballet has been transformative. At a medical appointment a few months after Leverton’s first class, a nurse measured her at 163cm, half an inch taller than she had thought. She attributes (归因) the difference to improved posture. Her muscle tone has improved and her lower back pain has stopped. Dancing has also brought new friends. She met a group of older, more independent women and worked together towards a team award with the Royal Academy of Dance. And then, of course, there is the joyful feeling. “Ballet is all the therapy (治疗) I’ll ever need,” said Leverton. 24. How did Leverton feel after taking her dance lesson? A. Tired. B. Confused. C. Shocked. D. Thrilled. 25. Why didn’t Leverton learn to dance she was young? A. Her family was badly off. B. She wasn’t able to leap high. C. Her family laughed at her dream. D. She had to focus on classes. 26. What did dancing bring to Leverton? A. A team award. B. Money and fame. C. Friendship and joy. D. A medical treatment. 27. What can we learn from Leverton’s story? A. Hard work pays off. B. Never too old to pursue dreams. C. Interest is the key to success. D. Money isn’t everything. 【答案】24. D 25. A 26. C 27. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一位名叫Tina Leverton的62岁女士，在移民英国的第一代印度人父母无法承担芭蕾舞课的费用下长大。她一直梦想成为一名芭蕾舞者，直到晚年才实现了这个梦想。对她来说，芭蕾舞不仅是艺术，更是一种治疗，给她带来了无尽的快乐。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段中“She said putting her feet into the soft leather was very emotional. She said: “I’ve waited a long time for it.”(她说，把脚伸进柔软的皮革里是一种非常激动的感觉。她说：“我已经等了很久了。”)”以及第二段““As I came in the door, I found a big smile on my face. From the minute I started, I felt like coming home.” (当我进门时，我发现我脸上露出了灿烂的笑容。从我开始的那一刻起，我就想回家。”)”可知，Leverton对于跳舞是充满热情的，能够跳舞是一种非常激动的感觉，由此推断出她在上完舞蹈课后感到非常激动。故选D。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Sadly, her parents couldn’t afford ballet classes, for they were first-generation Indian immigrants, struggling to make a living in the UK. (不幸的是，她的父母负担不起芭蕾舞课程的费用，因为他们是第一代印度移民，在英国努力谋生。)”可知，Leverton小时候没有学跳舞是因为她的家庭很穷。故选A。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Dancing has also brought new friends. She met a group of older, more independent women and worked together towards a team award with the Royal Academy of Dance. And then, of course, there is the joyful feeling.( 跳舞也给她带来了新的朋友。她遇到了一群年纪更大、更独立的女性，并与她们一起获得了皇家舞蹈学院的团队奖。当然，还有那种快乐的感觉。)”可知，跳舞给Leverton带来了友谊和快乐。故选C。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Ballet is all the therapy (治疗) I’ll ever need,” said Leverton.（“芭蕾舞是我永远需要的治疗，”Leverton说。）以及通读全文，可知，文章讲述了一位名叫Tina Leverton的62岁女士，在移民英国的第一代印度人父母无法承担芭蕾舞课的费用下长大。她一直梦想成为一名芭蕾舞者，直到晚年才实现了这个梦想。对她来说，芭蕾舞不仅是艺术，更是一种治疗，给她带来了无尽的快乐。因此，从Leverton的故事中学到“追求梦想永远不嫌晚”。B选项“Never too old to pursue dreams.( 追求梦想永远不嫌老。)”符合题意。故选B。 C One of the greatest killers in the Western world is heart disease. The death rate from the disease has been increasing at an alarming speed for the past thirty years. Today in Britain, for example, about four hundred people a day die of heart disease. Medical experts know that people can reduce their chances of getting heart disease by exercising regularly, by not smoking, by changing their diets, and by paying more attention to reducing stress in their work. However, Western health-care systems are still not paying enough attention to the prevention of the disease. There is a need for more programs to educate the public about the causes and prevention of heart disease. Instead of supporting such programs, however, the U. S. health-care system is spending large sums of money on the surgical treatment of the disease after it develops. This emphasis on treatment clearly has something to do with the technological advances that have taken place in the past ten to fifteen years. In this time, modern technology has enabled doctors to develop new surgical techniques. Many operations that were considered impossible or too risky a few years ago are now performed every day in U. S. hospitals. The result has been a huge increase in heart surgery. Although there is no doubt that heart surgery can help a large number of people, some people point out that the emphasis on the surgical treatment of the disease has three clear disadvantages. First, it attracts interest and money away from the question of prevention. Second, it causes the costs of general hospital care to rise. After hospitals buy the expensive equipment that is necessary for modern heart surgery, they must try to recover the money they have spent. To do this, they raise costs for all their patients, not just those patients whose treatment requires the equipment. The third disadvantage is that doctors are encouraged to perform surgery even on patients for whom an operation is unnecessary - because the equipment and expert skills are there. A government office recently stated that major heart surgery was often performed even though its chances of success were low. In one type of heart surgery, for example, only 15 percent of patients improved their conditions after the surgery. However, more than 100,000 of these operations are performed in the United States every year. 28. What effect has modern technology had on medicine? A. It has reduced the costs of medical treatment. B. It hasn’t helped save any patients. C. It has encouraged doctors to do more heart surgery. D. It has helped educate people about the prevention of heart disease. 29. What does the underlined word “recover” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Repair. B. Obtain. C. Get back. D. Pick up. 30. The author would agree that ________. A. heart surgery has helped all patients improve their conditions. B. more money should be spent on the prevention of heart disease. C. modern technology has made heart surgery more risky than before. D. the public have known a great deal about the causes of heart disease. 31. Which would be the best title for the passage? A. The Greatest Killer in the West B. Heart Surgery: Benefits C. Old Technology and Heart Surgery D. Heart Disease: Treat or Prevent? 【答案】28. C 29. C 30. B 31. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讨论了西方国家心脏病的问题，包括其高死亡率、预防措施的不足以及现代技术对心脏病治疗的影响，同时指出了过分强调手术治疗存在的弊端。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“This emphasis on treatment clearly has something to do with the technological advances that have taken place in the past ten to fifteen years. In this time, modern technology has enabled doctors to develop new surgical techniques. Many operations that were considered impossible or too risky a few years ago are now performed every day in U. S. hospitals. The result has been a huge increase in heart surgery.(这种对治疗的重视显然与过去10到15年发生的技术进步有关。在这段时间里，现代技术使医生能够开发出新的手术技术。许多几年前被认为是不可能或太危险的手术现在每天都在美国的医院里进行。结果是心脏手术的数量大幅增加)”可知，现代技术使得医生能够开发新的手术技术，从而导致了心脏手术数量的巨大增加。因此，现代技术对医学的影响是鼓励医生进行更多的心脏手术。故选C项。 【29题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句“After hospitals buy the expensive equipment that is necessary for modern heart surgery, they must try to recover the money they have spent.(在医院购买了现代心脏手术所需的昂贵设备后，他们必须设法recover所花费的钱)”和下文“To do this, they raise costs for all their patients, not just those patients whose treatment requires the equipment.(为了做到这一点，他们提高了所有病人的费用，而不仅仅是那些治疗需要设备的病人)”可知，医院提高了所有病人的费用是为了“找回”购买昂贵设备所花费的钱，即“get back”。故选C项。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“First, it attracts interest and money away from the question of prevention.(首先，它使人们的兴趣和资金从预防问题上转移开)”以及整段内容对手术治疗弊端的讨论可知，作者认为当前过分强调手术治疗而忽视了预防，因此可以推断出作者会同意“应该在预防心脏病上投入更多的资金”这一观点。故选B项。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要讨论了心脏病作为西方国家的主要杀手，其预防措施的不足以及现代技术对心脏病治疗的影响，同时指出了过分强调手术治疗存在的弊端。因此，文章的核心议题是心脏病的治疗与预防之间的关系。A项“The Greatest Killer in the West(西方最大的杀手)”只涉及了文章的部分内容，没有涵盖治疗与预防的讨论；B项“Heart Surgery: Benefits(心脏手术：优点)”只涉及了手术治疗的一方面，没有涵盖预防的重要性；C项“Old Technology and Heart Surgery(旧技术和心脏手术)”与文章内容不符，因为文章讨论的是现代技术对心脏手术的影响；D项“Heart Disease: Treat or Prevent?(心脏病：治疗还是预防？)”最能概括文章主旨，作为标题最合适。故选D项。 D Scientists near San Francisco work to identify a type of endangered fish using a tool that was originally made for treating cancer. Currently, CRISPR is used to change the genetic material in specific cells. By changing the structure of immune cells, it helps recognize and fight cancer. The same technology is now used in a special machine called Sherlock, which, of course, is named after the famous investigator Sherlock Holmes. They do not, however, use Sherlock to change fish cells. Instead, the ocean researchers catch the fish, collect a small amount of mucus (黏液) and then test the cells to find the genetic makeup of the fish. The researchers have found that the technology is extremely helpful when looking at different species of Chinook salmon, because they look nearly the same. It can be done in about 30 minutes. In the past, the researchers would have to wait weeks or months to get test results. In the past, the scientists would catch the Chinook salmon and measure them to tell them apart. “It’s not very accurate,” said Andrea Schreier, an associate professor at the University of California in Davis, who is working on the salmon. Schreier said when they catch the fish, the Sherlock machine can quickly tell them if they have one of the special salmon. It’s important because it allows the scientists to do things that will help the endangered salmon live longer. For example, they can catch them in lakes far away from the coast and take them by truck to the San Francisco Bay. In the past, the fish might have tried to make it to the Bay by swimming in rivers. However, due to climate change, the river water is sometimes too warm for the fish to make the trip safely. Schreier said she feels good about the project because she likes being able to assist with conservation. “I really want to work to maintain our ecosystems and our native populations as much as possible, given all of the pressures that we humans place on them through our different activities.’’ 32. Which of the following best describe the technology? A. Impractical. B. Inaccurate. C. Efficient. D. Economical. 33. What do the new technology and the traditional way have in common? A. They test the fish mucus to tell them apart. B. They are carried out by researchers in the lab. C. They originally aimed at detecting cancer. D. They help researchers tell different salmons apart. 34. What can be inferred about the Chinook salmons? A. They will soon die out. B. They are of the same size. C. They are used to cool water. D. They are now well protected. 35. What do we know about Andrea Schreier from the text? A. She thinks humans are greatly pressured. B. She is rather devoted to the conservation. C. She is unsatisfied with her work. D. She thinks her work needs improvement. 【答案】32. C 33. D 34. C 35. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种能够快速识别出奇努克鲑鱼的技术手段并希望通过利用这项技术能够更好的保护该物种。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段第一句“The researchers have found that the technology is extremely helpful when looking at different species of Chinook salmon, because they look nearly the same.”（研究人员发现，这项技术在观察不同种类的奇努克鲑鱼时非常有用，因为它们看起来几乎一样。）及第四段第三句“Schreier said when they catch the fish, the Sherlock machine can quickly tell them if they have one of the special salmon.”（Schreier说，当他们抓到鱼时，夏洛克机器可以迅速告诉他们是否有一条特殊的鲑鱼。）可知，这项技术在识别不同种类的奇努克鲑鱼时非常有效。故选C项。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段第一句“In the past, the scientists would catch the Chinook salmon and measure them to tell them apart.”（在过去，科学家们会捕捉奇努克鲑鱼并通过测量来区分它们。）及第四段第三句“Schreier said when they catch the fish, the Sherlock machine can quickly tell them if they have one of the special salmon.”（Schreier说，当他们抓到鱼时，夏洛克机器可以迅速告诉他们是否有一条特殊的鲑鱼。）可知，传统方法和新技术都能帮助研究人员区分不同的鲑鱼。故选D项。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段最后一句“However, due to climate change, the river water is sometimes too warm for the fish to make the trip safely.”（然而，由于气候变化，河水有时太热，鱼无法安全游到河中。）可知，奇努克鲑鱼无法适应温度高的河水，故推知它们适合在冷水中生存。故选C项。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段最后一句“I really want to work to maintain our ecosystems and our native populations as much as possible, given all of the pressures that we humans place on them through our different activities.”（鉴于我们人类通过我们的各种活动给地球生物的生存施加了太多压力，我真的想尽可能地维护我们的生态系统和保护我们的地球生物。）可知，Andrea Schreier致力于地球生物的保护。故选B项。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Will AI Replace Teachers? The AI teacher is also known as the mechanical teacher. ____36____ It’s a computer or machine that can teach a student according to the level it’s programmed to teach. While the thought of a reliable computer teaching your child might seem promising, AI cannot adapt its teaching to its students during mid-lesson or read its students’ emotions as a human teacher can. ____37____ It also cannot inspire its students as a human teacher can. The biggest benefit of the human teacher is that he or she gives students human connections they need. There are some who believe that teachers will be completely replaced by robots by the year 2027. Human teachers do carry with them some disadvantages. Some teachers can be of poor character. Others can have a compromising character or not be as knowledgeable about particular subjects as they should be. ____38____ If you ask anyone the top qualities of a good teacher, AI cannot meet these standards. They include friendly attitude, listening skills, respectful attitude, strong work ethic, patience, discipline skills, and so forth. AI cannot replace teachers. ____39____ Students long for the student-teacher bond, cooperation, and love. ____40____ It makes the human teacher’s job easier and helps him or her to be more efficient. This added efficiency allows him or her the time he or she needs to work more one-on-one with students to provide more adaptability and understanding for them. The two things are what an AI teacher would struggle to provide. A. It is exactly what it sounds like. B. AI cannot give a child what he or she needs. C. However, this does not mean that AI is not necessary. D. Frankly speaking, students have their own disadvantages too. E. Luckily, the good news is that AI shows more respect for teachers. F. These drawbacks can be corrected, though, through proper monitoring. G. It fails to simplify problems students have unless it’s programmed to do so. 【答案】36. A 37. G 38. F 39. B 40. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述AI无法取代人类教师的情感联结与适应性，但可作为教学辅助工具。 【36题详解】 根据上文“The AI teacher is also known as the mechanical teacher. (人工智能老师也被称为机械老师。)”及下文“It’s a computer or machine that can teach a student according to the level it’s programmed to teach. (它是一种计算机或机器，可以根据其编程的教学水平来教授学生。)”可知，后文是对前句“mechanical teacher”的具体解释，因此划线部分要自然引出定义，选项A“It is exactly what it sounds like (听起来就是这样。)”承接上文，引出下文，符合逻辑。故选A。 【37题详解】 上文“While the thought of a reliable computer teaching your child might seem promising, AI cannot adapt its teaching to its students during mid-lesson or read its students’ emotions as a human teacher can. (虽然让一台可靠的电脑教你的孩子听起来很有前途，但人工智能无法在上课过程中根据学生的情况调整教学，也无法像人类老师那样读懂的情绪。)”指出人工智能无法在上课过程中根据学生的情况调整教学，也无法像人类老师那样读懂的情绪，这是人工智能的缺陷，空处承接上文，也应是指出其缺陷，G项“它无法简化学生的问题，除非编程让它这样做。”符合语境，也会是在陈述人工智能的缺陷，故选G。 【38题详解】 根据上文“Some teachers can be of poor character. Others can have a compromising character or not be as knowledgeable about particular subjects as they should be. (有些教师的品德可能很差。其他人可能会有妥协的性格，或者对特定的主题没有足够的了解。)”可知，前文列举人类教师的缺点（品德或知识不足），下段“If you ask anyone the top qualities of a good teacher, AI cannot meet these standards. They include friendly attitude, listening skills, respectful attitude, strong work ethic, patience, discipline skills, and so forth. AI cannot replace teachers.(如果你问任何人优秀教师的首要品质，人工智能是无法达到这些标准的。这些品质包括友好的态度、倾听的技巧、尊重、强烈的工作伦理、耐心、纪律技巧等等。人工智能无法取代教师。)”指出人工智能无法取代老师，所以空处应该指出相比于人工智能，人类的这些缺点是可以纠正的，划线部分要针对这些确定提出解决方案。选项F“These drawbacks can be corrected, though, through proper monitoring. (不过，这些缺点可以通过适当的监控加以纠正。)” 提出解决方案，转折合理。故选F。 【39题详解】 上文“If you ask anyone the top qualities of a good teacher, AI cannot meet these standards. They include friendly attitude, listening skills, respectful attitude, strong work ethic, patience, discipline skills, and so forth. AI cannot replace teachers.(如果你问任何人优秀教师的首要品质，人工智能是无法达到这些标准的。这些品质包括友好的态度、倾听的技巧、尊重、强烈的工作伦理、耐心、纪律技巧等等。人工智能无法取代教师。)”强调人类教师的优秀品质（友好、耐心等）是AI无法满足的，下文“Students long for the student-teacher bond, cooperation, and love.(学生渴望师生之间的纽带、合作和爱)”提到“学生渴望师生关系”，B项“人工智能无法给予孩子他或她所需要的东西。”总结AI的不足，呼应后文“学生需求”，解释了人工智能不能取代教师的原因。故选B。 【40题详解】 根据下文“It makes the human teacher’s job easier and helps him or her to be more efficient. This added efficiency allows him or her the time he or she needs to work more one-on-one with students to provide more adaptability and understanding for them. (它使人类教师的工作更容易，并帮助他或她更有效率。这种增加的效率使他或她有更多的时间与学生进行一对一的工作，为他们提供更多的适应性和理解。)”可知，下文在讨论利用AI的辅助作用来提高效率，与上一段AI的局限性形成对照，因此划线处起到承上启下的作用，选项C“However, this does not mean that AI is not necessary (然而，这并不意味着人工智能是不必要的)”引出AI的积极意义，符合逻辑。故选C。 第II卷 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，从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Sidney Poitier, a remarkable actor and director, was born to a Bahamian farmer’s family.

Since then, he had diligently walked a neighbor’s dog and weeded his neighbors’ gardens to earn money for one figurine. Finally he had enough money for one and raced towards the corner shop. Lost in excitement, he accidentally tripped over a homeless old man seated against a wall in the cold, quickly murmuring an apology before continuing on his way. Inside the shop, Jack glanced at the shelves displaying Hulk, Thor, Captain America, Iron Man, and other beloved heroes. His heart raced as he reached for the Spiderman. “You’re a fan, right?” a friendly voice appeared behind him. Jack turned to see the shopkeeper, an elderly man with a warm smile. “Yes, they’re amazing!” Jack said. “They’re strong, and they help so many people. They have super power. I wish I could be a superhero too.” “You can be,” the shopkeeper encouraged. Surprised, Jack asked, “But how? I don’t have any super power.” Smiling softly, the shopkeeper bent down, placing his hands on Jack’s arms. “Why would you need them?” he replied kindly. “See that woman over there? She needs to take care of three children. However, she still actively helps the elderly in the community. And do you know Jimmy? He is a firefighter who has saved countless lives. Being a hero isn’t about super power; it’s about what’s in your heart.” Locking eyes with Jack, the shopkeeper smiled. “You don’t need super power to be a hero. It starts with your heart.” 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。 Hearing what the shopkeeper said, Jack was lost in thought. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ With relief, Jack found the homeless old man still sitting against the wall. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Hearing what the shopkeeper said, Jack was lost in thought. The shopkeeper’s words echoed over and over again in his mind. “How can I be a superhero without super power?” he thought to himself. Suddenly, the scene of the homeless old man trembling in the cold flashed across his mind. Jack made a crucial decision that instead of buying a superhero figurine, he walked out of the shop with a large shopping bag full of stuff. Hurriedly, Jack ran back to look for the homeless old man. With relief, Jack found the homeless old man still sitting against the wall. He knelt down beside the old man, offering him a warm smile. “I’m sorry for bumping into you earlier,” Jack said sincerely. “Can I get you something to eat or drink?” The old man looked up, surprised by Jack’s kindness. With a grateful nod, he accepted Jack’s offer. Just then, Jack realized that being a hero wasn’t just about saving the world—it was about making someone’s world a little brighter. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。在一个风雪交加的晚上，杰克为了买一个漫威英雄小雕像，努力工作攒钱。在去商店的路上，他不小心绊倒了一位流浪老人。进店后，他对店主说梦想成为超级英雄。店主告诉他，真正的英雄主义源于内心的善意与助人的行为，而非超能力。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段句首内容“听到店主的话，杰克陷入了沉思。”可知，第一段可以描写杰克听到店主的话后的心理活动和行动。 ②由第二段句首内容“杰克松了一口气，发现那个无家可归的老人仍然靠墙坐着。”可知，第二段可以描写杰克对于老人的帮助和感悟。 2.续写线索：沉思—决定—找老人—发现老人—帮助老人—感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①闪过脑海：flash across one’s mind/run through one’s mind ②做出关键决定：make a crucial decision/make a key decision ③走出商店：walk out of the shop/step out of the shop 情绪类 ①很抱歉，难过：sorry/apologetic ②感激的：grateful/appreciative 【点睛】【高分句型1】Jack made a crucial decision that instead of buying a superhero figurine, he walked out of the shop with a large shopping bag full of stuff.( 运用了that引导的同位语从句) 【高分句型2】He knelt down beside the old man, offering him a warm smile.
