It mainly focuses on the effects and patterns of various social factors on different diseases, which are not simply biological phenomena caused by bacteria, viruses, and other such factors. By understanding these effects, social medicine aims to improve public health, helping people lead healthier lives. It may sound like it’s just about studying the relationship between stress and mental health, but it’s more than that. For example, there is a course called Epidemiology (流行病) and Health Statistics. In this course, I studied the risk factors of breast cancer. I got clinical data from hospitals and studied various factors affecting breast cancer, such as environmental risks, government support, regional economic and educational levels, and the allocation of health resources. The courses in social medicine involve two parts, one related to sociology and the other to medicine. For the sociology part, you will study topics including social medicine, health promotion and social science research methods. For the medicine part, there are courses such as anatomy and pathology. You will also have the chance to do an internship (实习) in hospitals. 1. What is probably the writer? A. A sociologist. B. A college student. C. A student advisor. D. A university professor. 2. What do we know about social medicine from the passage? A. It is a combination of anatomy and pathology. B. Students majoring in it learn very little of medicine. C. It aims to improve public health as well cure diseases. D. Education of social medicine includes medicine and sociology. 3. From which section of the newspaper is the passage probably taken? A. Agony Aunt. B. College Tips. C. Science Study. D. Modern Medicine. B Cai Lei, former vice-president of JD Group, reveals how amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) diagnosis (诊断) set him on the path to find a cure. Born to a farmer’s family in 1978, Cai has been deeply influenced by his father’s idea that “one has to fight for himself”. Since primary school, he has been getting up before 5 am to run and study English. At 29, Cai became chief tax manager in Vanke Co. In 2011, he joined JD Group, where he led his team to develop the first electronic invoice (发票) in China. Wherever he worked, he always tried his best to create new value. Diagnosed with ALS in 2019 he would have only two to five years to live. ALS is usually caused by the gradual death of motor neurons (神经元), which makes normally easy movements like drinking water, eating, going to the bathroom, and speaking impossible. Finally, patients will completely rely on machines and others’ help to survive. So far, only two medicines are available to treat ALS, but they can at most extend patients’ life for several months without improving their living quality. To develop effective drugs is the only way to save ALS patients. However, the intense effort required, which is unprofitable for so rare an illness, makes it a mission almost impossible. It usually takes 10-15 years to complete the research cycle for a new drug and the cost is $1‒3 billion. Take Alzheimer’s disease for example. Between 2000 and 2017, investment in new drugs for this more common disease was over $600 billion, and 99.6% of the research on more than 300 drugs failed. Cai decided to take matters into his own hands. He started his own medical technology company, built his own research team, and volunteered to try more than 30 new medicines which all failed. However, he has decided that even if all efforts prove fruitless, he will continue. To shoot the last bullet, he has decided to donate his brain and spinal cord for scientific research. He will not die for nothing. 4. What kind of person is Cai Lei? A. Extremely gifted and ambitious. B. Hard-working and warm-hearted. C. Quite responsible and dependable. D. Highly motivated and strong-willed. 5. What might happen to people diagnosed with ALS? A. Losing the ability to think and speak normally. B. Maintaining a normal life by taking medicines. C. Dying within months of a confirmed diagnosis. D. Needing external assistance to survive in the end. 6. Why is Alzheimer’s disease mentioned in paragraph 4? A. To talk about the severity of Alzheimer’s disease. B. To prove Alzheimer’s disease to be a common disease. C. To explain the difficulty of finding a cure for ALS. D. To ask for more investment in the research on ALS. 7. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Joint efforts to fight ALS B. A man who never gives in C. ALS, a rare deadly disease D. Suffering of a man with ALS C Chinese hit video game Black Myth: Wukong has taken the gaming world by storm, selling more than 10 million copies across all platforms in just three days after its release. The game is inspired by the classic Chinese novel Journey to the West. In it, players take the role of the Destined One, setting off for adventures to collect six Relics that once belonged to Sun Wukong and challenge the Celestial Court. Drawing on a rich heritage of nearly 1,000 years of Chinese culture, the game’s storyline and characters have proven difficult to understand for many players from western countries. For instance, a player shared on social media that their lack of familiarity with Journey to the West led to them consistently missing hidden treasures, finally resulting in repeated failures during a boss fight in Chapter 2. Meanwhile, some players feel overwhelmed by names like Erlang Shen and Lingxuzi, which can be difficult to pronounce for those unfamiliar with Chinese phonetics. To bridge these cultural divides, one enthusiast wrote a 200-page outline detailing Sun Wukong’s abilities across all 100 chapters of Journey to the West. Many others immersed themselves in the epic by checking out forums, TV shows, anime, manga and online encyclopedias. Through this process, western players have not only refined their gaming skills but also developed a deeper appreciation for Sun Wukong and Journey to the West. “Although many people might compare Sun Wukong to Western superheroes, I believe they are different,” said Patrick from the US. “Sun Wukong has a carefree and independent nature, unlimited by the need to set a good example for others like Spider-Man, who by contrast follows principles like ‘with great power comes great responsibility’.” Journey to the West offers a comprehensive narrative that covers a very dangerous journey, numerous encounters and the exploration of various cultures, making it a rich source for diverse storytelling types and cultural backgrounds. Perhaps these are some of the key reasons why Journey to the West has been translated into over a dozen languages, with more than 60 versions available worldwide. 8. What is the Destined One in Paragraph 2? A. The nickname of Sun Wukong in the game. B. The fictional main character of this hit game. C. One of the adventures to collect the six Relics. D. One of the six Relics belonging to the Celestial Court. 9. What does the underlined word “bridge” in paragraph 4 most likely mean? A Get rid of. B. Take control of. C. Keep track of D. Take advantage of. 10. What can be learned about the game from the passage? A. It has gradually gained popularity among players worldwide. B. Its original character Sun Wukong is similar to western superheroes. C. It has been translated into many languages with numerous versions available worldwide. D. It is rather challenging for western players due to their unfamiliarity with Chinese culture. 11. What does the text mainly talk about? A. A Chinese hit video game and its original novel Journey to the West. B. Reasons behind the success of Chinese video game Black Myth: Wukong. C. The cultural impact and western players’ reception of a Chinese hit video game. D. Challenges and benefits Black Myth: Wukong brings to the spread of Chinese culture. D Given the astonishing potential of AI to transform our lives, we all need to take action to deal with our AI-powered future, and this is where AI by Design: A Plan for Living with Artificial Intelligence comes in. This absorbing new book by Catriona Campbell is a practical roadmap addressing the challenges posed by the forthcoming AI revolution (变革). In the wrong hands, such a book could prove as complicated to understand as the computer code (代码) that powers AI but, thankfully, Campbell has more than two decades’ professional experience translating the heady into the understandable. She writes from the practical angle of a businessperson rather than as an academic, making for a guide which is highly accessible and informative and which, eventually, will make you feel almost as smart as AI. As we soon come to learn from AI by Design, AI is already super-smart and will become more capable, moving from the current generation of “narrow-AI” to Artificial General Intelligence. From there, Campbell says, will come Artificial Dominant Intelligence. This is why Campbell has set out to raise awareness of AI and its future now — several decades before these developments are expected to take place. She says it is essential that we keep control of artificial intelligence, or risk being sidelined and perhaps even worse. Campbell’s point is to wake up those responsible for AI — the technology companies and world leaders — so they are on the same page as all the experts currently developing it. She explains we are at a “tipping point” in history and must act now to prevent an extinction-level event for humanity. We need to consider how we want our future with AI to pan out. Such structured thinking, followed by global regulation (管理), will enable us to achieve greatness rather than our downfall. AI will affect us all, and if you only read one book on the subject, this is it. 12. What is a feature of AI by Design according to the text? A. It is packed with complex codes. B. It adopts a down-to-earth writing style. C. It is intended for AI professionals. D. It provides step-by-step instructions. 13. What does Campbell strongly recommend people to do about AI development? A. Observe existing regulations on it. B. Reconsider expert opinions about it. C. Make joint efforts to keep it under control. D. Learn from previous experience to slow it down. 14. How does the author introduce AI by Design? A. By comparing it with other similar works. B. By sharing reviews of experts and readers. C. By giving examples of dangers posed by AI. D. By summarizing the main idea and main points. 15. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To recommend a book on AI. B. To honor an outstanding AI expert. C. To clarify the definition of AI. D. To raise awareness of the risks of 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可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Increase Your Self-Confidence with Positive Daily Practices When you walk into a room, do you feel confident?

My mother had a fixed idea that I would become a teacher, too. Although I respected her and was indeed skilled at teaching something to my little cousins, I didn’t agree that I should naturally follow in my mother’s footsteps. When I was a teenager, my mother happened to take me to a hospital which was run by one of her friends. It was the first time I had seen a busy medical environment in real life in person. Finding that I was curious about treating patients, my mother’s friend Dr. Lee offered me an opportunity to shadow him (跟他实地参观) for a day. I eagerly accepted his offer! Observing the doctors and nurses in action, I felt a mix of anxiety and excitement. Seeing the healing (治愈) process and the impact of medical care on patients was a profoundly moving experience. I figured being a doctor would be the most rewarding career in the world. From that day, a thought formed in my mind that I wanted to become a doctor, but I doubted whether my mother would support me. After all, it was a completely different path from what she had planned for me. Therefore, I kept the thought to myself, because I knew she would still insist on holding onto her previous idea. Anyway, besides discussing with my mother about teaching, I would often visit Dr. Lee’s hospital. Gradually, I got familiar with the medical equipment and procedures, and I learned a lot about healthcare, such as how to take vital signs (测生命体征), how to assist in minor surgeries, and so on. But what I had learned in the hospital just left me wanting more, so I decided to go to college to become a professional doctor. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。 This time I would not hide my desire any more ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ At the graduation ceremony, with my mother present, I, as “Excellent Graduate”, had to deliver a speech. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 威远中学校2025-2026学年高二上期12月月考 英语试题 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（每段对话仅读一遍） 1.

Suffering of a man with ALS 【答案】4. D 5. D 6. C 7. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文，文章介绍了京东集团前副总裁蔡磊因肌萎缩性侧索硬化症（ALS）走上了寻找治疗方法的道路。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段提到的蔡磊的事迹“Born to a farmer’s family in 1978, Cai has been deeply influenced by his father’s idea that “one has to fight for himself”. Since primary school, he has been getting up before 5 am to run and study English. At 29, Cai became chief tax manager in Vanke Co. In 2011, he joined JD Group, where he led his team to develop the first electronic invoice (发票) in China. Wherever he worked, he always tried his best to create new value.(蔡先生1978年出生在一个农民家庭，他深受父亲“人要为自己奋斗”的思想的影响。从小学开始，他一直在早上5点前起床跑步和学习英语。29岁时，他成为万科公司的首席税务经理。2011年，他加入京东集团，在那里他带领他的团队开发了中国第一个电子发票。无论他在哪里工作，他总是尽力创造新的价值)”可知，蔡磊刻苦学习，并且在工作的时候也努力地为公司创造价值，说明他是一个有着坚强意志的，且积极性很高的人。故选D。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“ALS is usually caused by the gradual death of motor neurons (神经元), which makes normally easy movements like drinking water, eating, going to the bathroom, and speaking impossible. Finally, patients will completely rely on machines and others’ help to survive.(肌萎缩侧索硬化症通常是由运动神经元的逐渐死亡引起的，这使得像喝水、吃饭、上厕所和说话等正常的简单运动变得不可能。最后，病人将完全依赖机器和其他人的帮助来生存)”可知，患上ALS的人在后期会逐渐丧失运动能力，连最基本的功能都丧失，需要借助外在的帮助才能生存下去。故选D。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“However, the intense effort required, which is unprofitable for so rare an illness, makes it a mission almost impossible. It usually takes 10-15 years to complete the research cycle for a new drug and the cost is $1-3billion. Take Alzheimer’s disease for example. Between 2000 and 2017, investment in new drugs for this more common disease was over $600 billion, and 99.6% of the research on more than 300 drugs failed.(然而，由于这种罕见疾病带来的收益微薄，所需付出的巨大努力使得这一任务几乎不可能完成。研发一种新药通常需要10到15年的时间，成本高达10亿到30亿美元。以阿尔茨海默病为例，2000年至2017年间，针对这种较为常见的疾病研发新药的投资超过6000亿美元，而超过300种药物的研发中有99.6%以失败告终。)”可知，该段提到了研发阿尔兹海默病药品的资金投入，并且在这些研究中失败的概率；由此可知，针对罕见病来研发药物这条路既需要投入大量的资金，又需要承担高失败率的风险，研发特效药的过程是非常不容易的，因此针对ALS罕见病的药物研发也是十分不容易的。因此推测，第四段中提到阿尔兹海默病的原因是为了解释找到ALS治疗方法的困难之处。故选C。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。第一段“Cai Lei, former vice-president of JD Group, reveals how amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) diagnosis (诊断) set him on the path to find a cure.(京东集团前副总裁蔡磊透露，肌萎缩性侧索硬化症(ALS)的诊断如何让他踏上了寻找治疗方法的道路。)”总起介绍了罹患ALS的蔡磊开始寻找能够治疗这种疾病的方法，第二段通过他的事迹侧面描写了他是一个有着强烈动机且有着坚强意志的人，最后一段提到“Cai decided to take matters into his own hands.(蔡决定自己动手。)”以及“However, he has decided that even if all efforts prove fruitless, he will continue. To shoot the last bullet, he has decided to donate his brain and spinal cord for scientific research. He will not die for nothing.(然而，他已经决定，即使所有的努力都是徒劳的，他也会继续下去。为了打最后一颗子弹，他决定捐献自己的大脑和脊髓用于科学研究。他不会白死的)”可知，他为这个疾病的治疗方法付出了很多，哪怕是死后捐献自己的身体也在所不惜，即他是一个永不言弃，永不向疾病投降的人。B项“A man who never gives in(一个永不屈服的人)”能很好地概括文章内容，符合文意。故选B。 C Chinese hit video game Black Myth: Wukong has taken the gaming world by storm, selling more than 10 million copies across all platforms in just three days after its release. The game is inspired by the classic Chinese novel Journey to the West. In it, players take the role of the Destined One, setting off for adventures to collect six Relics that once belonged to Sun Wukong and challenge the Celestial Court. Drawing on a rich heritage of nearly 1,000 years of Chinese culture, the game’s storyline and characters have proven difficult to understand for many players from western countries. For instance, a player shared on social media that their lack of familiarity with Journey to the West led to them consistently missing hidden treasures, finally resulting in repeated failures during a boss fight in Chapter 2. Meanwhile, some players feel overwhelmed by names like Erlang Shen and Lingxuzi, which can be difficult to pronounce for those unfamiliar with Chinese phonetics. To bridge these cultural divides, one enthusiast wrote a 200-page outline detailing Sun Wukong’s abilities across all 100 chapters of Journey to the West. Many others immersed themselves in the epic by checking out forums, TV shows, anime, manga and online encyclopedias. Through this process, western players have not only refined their gaming skills but also developed a deeper appreciation for Sun Wukong and Journey to the West. “Although many people might compare Sun Wukong to Western superheroes, I believe they are different,” said Patrick from the US. “Sun Wukong has a carefree and independent nature, unlimited by the need to set a good example for others like Spider-Man, who by contrast follows principles like ‘with great power comes great responsibility’.” Journey to the West offers a comprehensive narrative that covers a very dangerous journey, numerous encounters and the exploration of various cultures, making it a rich source for diverse storytelling types and cultural backgrounds. Perhaps these are some of the key reasons why Journey to the West has been translated into over a dozen languages, with more than 60 versions available worldwide. 8. What is the Destined One in Paragraph 2? A. The nickname of Sun Wukong in the game. B. The fictional main character of this hit game. C. One of the adventures to collect the six Relics. D. One of the six Relics belonging to the Celestial Court. 9. What does the underlined word “bridge” in paragraph 4 most likely mean? A. Get rid of. B. Take control of. C. Keep track of D. Take advantage of. 10. What can be learned about the game from the passage? A. It has gradually gained popularity among players worldwide. B. Its original character Sun Wukong is similar to western superheroes. C. It has been translated into many languages with numerous versions available worldwide. D. It is rather challenging for western players due to their unfamiliarity with Chinese culture. 11. What does the text mainly talk about? A. A Chinese hit video game and its original novel Journey to the West. B. Reasons behind the success of Chinese video game Black Myth: Wukong. C The cultural impact and western players’ reception of a Chinese hit video game. D. Challenges and benefits Black Myth: Wukong brings to the spread of Chinese culture. 【答案】8. B 9. A 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国热门电子游戏《黑色神话：悟空》的文化影响以及西方玩家对这款游戏的接受程度。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段的句子“In it, players take the role of the Destined One, setting off for adventures to collect six Relics that once belonged to Sun Wukong and challenge the Celestial Court.(在这款游戏中，玩家将扮演“命中注定的人”，开始收集孙悟空的六件遗物，并向天庭发起挑战。)”可知，Destined One指的是游戏中玩家所扮演的角色。故选B项。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段的内容“Drawing on a rich heritage of nearly 1,000 years of Chinese culture, the game’s storyline and characters have proven difficult to understand for many players from western countries. For instance, a player shared on social media that their lack of familiarity with Journey to the West led to them consistently missing hidden treasures, finally resulting in repeated failures during a boss fight in Chapter 2. Meanwhile, some players feel overwhelmed by names like Erlang Shen and Lingxuzi, which can be difficult to pronounce for those unfamiliar with Chinese phonetics.(这款游戏拥有近千年的中国文化遗产，但它的故事情节和角色对许多西方国家的玩家来说很难理解。例如，一名玩家在社交媒体上分享说，他们对《西游记》的不熟悉导致他们不断丢失隐藏的宝藏，最终导致他们在第二章的boss战中反复失败。与此同时，一些玩家对“二郎神”和“灵须子”这样的名字感到不知所措，对于不熟悉汉语语音的人来说，这些名字很难发音。)”可知，划线单词后面的these cultural divides指的是由于对中国文化的不熟悉导致西方玩家对故事情节和角色难理解；再由划线单词后面的“these cultural divides, one enthusiast wrote a 200-page outline detailing Sun Wukong’s abilities across all 100 chapters of Journey to the West”可知，一位爱好者写了一份200页的大纲，详细介绍了孙悟空在《西游记》中所有100章的能力，肯定是为了弥合第三段提到的文化差异，所以划线单词bridge的意义为“弥合，消除”，与get rid of意义一致。故选A项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段的内容“Drawing on a rich heritage of nearly 1,000 years of Chinese culture, the game’s storyline and characters have proven difficult to understand for many players from western countries.

This absorbing new book by Catriona Campbell is a practical roadmap addressing the challenges posed by the forthcoming AI revolution (变革). In the wrong hands, such a book could prove as complicated to understand as the computer code (代码) that powers AI but, thankfully, Campbell has more than two decades’ professional experience translating the heady into the understandable. She writes from the practical angle of a businessperson rather than as an academic, making for a guide which is highly accessible and informative and which, eventually, will make you feel almost as smart as AI. As we soon come to learn from AI by Design, AI is already super-smart and will become more capable, moving from the current generation of “narrow-AI” to Artificial General Intelligence. From there, Campbell says, will come Artificial Dominant Intelligence. This is why Campbell has set out to raise awareness of AI and its future now — several decades before these developments are expected to take place. She says it is essential that we keep control of artificial intelligence, or risk being sidelined and perhaps even worse. Campbell’s point is to wake up those responsible for AI — the technology companies and world leaders — so they are on the same page as all the experts currently developing it. She explains we are at a “tipping point” in history and must act now to prevent an extinction-level event for humanity. We need to consider how we want our future with AI to pan out. Such structured thinking, followed by global regulation (管理), will enable us to achieve greatness rather than our downfall. AI will affect us all, and if you only read one book on the subject, this is it. 12. What is a feature of AI by Design according to the text? A. It is packed with complex codes. B. It adopts a down-to-earth writing style. C. It is intended for AI professionals. D. It provides step-by-step instructions. 13. What does Campbell strongly recommend people to do about AI development? A. Observe existing regulations on it. B. Reconsider expert opinions about it. C. Make joint efforts to keep it under control. D. Learn from previous experience to slow it down. 14. How does the author introduce AI by Design? A. By comparing it with other similar works. B. By sharing reviews of experts and readers. C. By giving examples of dangers posed by AI. D. By summarizing the main idea and main points. 15. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To recommend a book on AI. B. To honor an outstanding AI expert. C. To clarify the definition of AI. D. To raise awareness of the risks of AI. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了Catriona Campbell所著AI by Design: A Plan for Living with Artificial Intelligence一书，该书作为应对AI革命挑战的实用指南，从商业视角阐述AI发展现状与前景，强调控制AI的重要性，呼吁各界协同确保人工智能安全发展，以防潜在危机。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“In the wrong hands, such a book could prove as complicated to understand as the computer code (代码) that powers AI but, thankfully, Campbell has more than two decades’ professional experience translating the heady into the understandable. (在错误的人手中，这样一本书可能会被证明像驱动人工智能的计算机代码一样复杂，但谢天谢地，坎贝尔有20多年的专业经验，可以将令人兴奋的内容转化为可理解的内容。)”可知，坎贝尔在书中将令人兴奋的内容转化为可理解的内容，结合下文的“She writes from the practical angle of a businessperson rather than as an academic, making for a guide which is highly accessible and informative and which, eventually, will make you feel almost as smart as AI.(她从一个商人而非学者的实际角度出发，撰写了一本非常通俗易懂、内容丰富的指南，最终会让你觉得自己几乎和人工智能一样聪明。)”可知，她从实际的角度写的该书，这本书的特点是通俗易懂，由此可推测它采用了朴实的写作风格。故选B项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“She says it is essential that we keep control of artificial intelligence, or risk being sidelined and perhaps even worse. (她说，我们必须保持对人工智能的控制，否则就有被边缘化甚至更糟的风险。)”以及倒数第二段中的“We need to consider how we want our future with AI to pan out. Such structured thinking, followed by global regulation (管理), will enable us to achieve greatness rather than our downfall. (我们需要考虑我们希望人工智能的未来如何发展。这种结构化的思维，加上全球监管，将使我们走向伟大，而不是走向衰败。)”可知，坎贝尔敦促人们保持对人工智能的控制，考虑人工智能的未来应如何发展，所以关于人工智能的发展，坎贝尔敦促人们共同努力将其控制住。故选C项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据首段中的“This absorbing new book by Catriona Campbell is a practical roadmap addressing the challenges posed by the forthcoming AI revolution (变革).(卡特里奥娜·坎贝尔撰写的这本引人入胜的新书是一本实用的路线图，旨在应对即将到来的人工智能革命带来的挑战。)”以及第二段中的“She writes from the practical angle of a businessperson rather than as an academic, making for a guide which is highly accessible and informative and which, eventually, will make you feel almost as smart as AI.(她从一个商人而非学者的实际角度出发，撰写了一本非常通俗易懂、内容丰富的指南，最终会让你觉得自己几乎和人工智能一样聪明。)”可知，作者总结了该书的作者使用了更朴实的方式写的这本书籍，结合第三段中的“She says it is essential that we keep control of artificial intelligence, or risk being sidelined and perhaps even worse.(她说，我们必须保持对人工智能的控制，否则就有被边缘化甚至更糟的风险。)”以及第四段中的“Campbell’s point is to wake up those responsible for AI — the technology companies and world leaders — so they are on the same page as all the experts currently developing it.(坎贝尔的观点是唤醒那些负责人工智能的人——科技公司和世界领导人——这样他们就能与目前正在开发人工智能的所有专家站在同一战线上。)”可知，作者总结了该书作者对人工智能的观点，由此可推断，作者是通过总结和概括该书的主要思想和要点介绍该书的。故选D项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据首段“Given the astonishing potential of AI to transform our lives, we all need to take action to deal with our AI-powered future, and this is where AI by Design: A Plan for Living with Artificial Intelligence comes in.

Consequently因此；B. Gradually逐渐地；C. Eventually最终；D. Apparently明显地。从前文“I walked to stores to buy thank you cards”可知作者一直在找合适的卡片，结合后文“I found a proper card at a small store”可知，作者最终找到了合适的卡片。故选C项。 【33题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：我把“我”改成“我们”，让学生们写他们的感谢信。A. changed改变；B. connected连接；C. preferred更喜欢；D. compared比较。根据后文“‘I’ to ‘We’”以及“let students write their notes”可知，要让学生们一起写，所以把“我”改成了“我们”。故选A项。 【34题详解】 考查动词短语辨析。句意：下次有人帮助你时，慢下来——找一张感谢信并写下来。A. calm down冷静下来；B. cheer up振作起来；C. slow down慢下来；D. stand up站起来。结合前文提到在忙碌的生活中书面感谢容易被忽视，这里是提醒人们在别人帮助时，不要匆忙，慢下来写感谢信。故选C项。 【35题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：小举动比它们看起来更重要。A. plans计划；B. promises承诺；C. moments时刻；D. acts举动。前文提到写感谢信这种行为，写感谢信是一种小举动，所以这里强调小举动的重要性。故选D项。 第二节 (共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 A 90-year-old has been awarded “Woman Of The Year” for being Britain's oldest full-time employee-still working 40 hours a week.

My mother had a fixed idea that I would become a teacher, too. Although I respected her and was indeed skilled at teaching something to my little cousins, I didn’t agree that I should naturally follow in my mother’s footsteps. When I was a teenager, my mother happened to take me to a hospital which was run by one of her friends. It was the first time I had seen a busy medical environment in real life in person. Finding that I was curious about treating patients, my mother’s friend Dr. Lee offered me an opportunity to shadow him (跟他实地参观) for a day. I eagerly accepted his offer! Observing the doctors and nurses in action, I felt a mix of anxiety and excitement. Seeing the healing (治愈) process and the impact of medical care on patients was a profoundly moving experience. I figured being a doctor would be the most rewarding career in the world. From that day, a thought formed in my mind that I wanted to become a doctor, but I doubted whether my mother would support me. After all, it was a completely different path from what she had planned for me. Therefore, I kept the thought to myself, because I knew she would still insist on holding onto her previous idea. Anyway, besides discussing with my mother about teaching, I would often visit Dr. Lee’s hospital. Gradually, I got familiar with the medical equipment and procedures, and I learned a lot about healthcare, such as how to take vital signs (测生命体征), how to assist in minor surgeries, and so on. But what I had learned in the hospital just left me wanting more, so I decided to go to college to become a professional doctor. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。 This time I would not hide my desire any more. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ At the graduation ceremony, with my mother present, I, as “Excellent Graduate”, had to deliver a speech. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文： This time I would not hide my desire any more. Determined to follow my heart, I explained to my mother how I felt. I told her that I wanted to go to college to learn to be a doctor instead of being a teacher. After saying this, I waited nervously for her reaction. To my surprise, she approved of my request, and she told me she was moved by my perseverance. With her support and my efforts, I was admitted into my ideal college. At the graduation ceremony, with my mother present, I, as “Excellent Graduate”, had to deliver a speech. In my speech, I shared with the audience my story about how a teenager realized her dream. Faced with difficulties, I took a path that led me to do something that needed passion, training and practice. I also owed my success to my mother’s support. Without her understanding, I couldn’t have pursued my dream. At the end of my speech, I spotted my mother’s watery eyes, and said, “Mom, I made it!” Her face lit up with pride. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索。作者的家人都是教师，所以母亲很早就为作者规划好了未来的职业道路——成为一名教师。然而，一次到母亲朋友的医院拜访，作者发现自己对医学感兴趣。作者虽然不敢告诉母亲实情，但内心对医学的热情并没有扑灭，他经常去母亲朋友的医院学习。后来作者勇敢告诉母亲自己上大学要学医学，没想到母亲很支持作者的决定。后来作者作为优秀毕业生毕业，他非常感激母亲的支持。 【详解】1. 续写线索： ①由续写第一段首句“这一次，我不再隐藏我的愿望。”可知，第一段可以描写作者鼓足勇气告诉母亲想学医学的事情，母亲表示支持，作者进入了理想的大学。 ②由续写第二段首句“在毕业典礼上，在母亲的陪同下，我作为“优秀毕业生”，必须发表演讲。”可知，第二段可以描写作者在演讲中讲述了自己的寻梦之路、对母亲的感激，并描写母亲的反应。 2. 段落续写：勇敢告诉母亲自己要学医——母亲表达支持——进入理想大学——毕业演讲中感激母亲——母亲非常感动和自豪 3. 词汇激活： 行为类 ①同意：approve of/agree ②被录取：be admitted into/be accepted by ③实现：realize/achieve 情绪类 ①坚定：determined/firm ②惊讶：surprise/amazement ③感动的：moved/touched 【点睛】【高分句型1】Determined to follow my heart, I explained to my mother how I felt.(使用了形容词短语作状语、how引导宾语从句) 【高分句型2】Faced with difficulties, I took a path that led me to do something that needed passion, training and practice.
