广东省揭阳市普宁市勤建学校2025-2026学年高三上学期第三次调研考试英语试题

勤建学校高三年级上学期第三次调研考试 英语答案 2025.12 【答案】1. C 2. B 3. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍共享出行服务现状，分析使用障碍及为实现可持续交通采取的包容性措施。 【1题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段中“Shared mobility services, such as carshares and bikeshares, have positive effects on the environment. However, access to these services is not equal for everyone. Research shows that shared mobility services are more commonly available in wealthier urban areas. Most users tend to be younger, wealthier, and physically able. To build a sustainable transportation system, it is essential to make these services inclusive for all people. (共享出行服务，如汽车共享和自行车共享，对环境有积极影响。然而，并非每个人都能平等地获得这些服务。研究表明，共享出行服务在较富裕的城市地区更为普遍。大多数用户往往更年轻、更富有、身体更强健。为了建设可持续的交通系统，必须使这些服务对所有人都具有包容性)”可知，让共享出行服务具有包容性的目的是实现交通可持续发展。故选 C。 【2题详解】细节理解题。根据文中“Surveys indicate that people in rural areas and those with lower incomes encounter more obstacles when trying to use bikeshares. Cost, lack of familiarity, and limited availability are common problems(调查显示，农村地区和低收入人群在使用共享单车时遇到更多障碍。成本、缺乏熟悉度和供应有限是常见问题)”及图表中对应Lower income(urban)的BARRIER2：High cost of the bikeshare system对应的是40%，占比最高，所以高成本是阻碍低收入城市人群使用共享单车的主要障碍。故选B。 【3题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段中“Similarly, Tim Carsharing in Austria offers vehicles suitable for wheelchairs and provides child seats upon request. (相似地，奥地利的Tim Carsharing提供适合轮椅的车辆，并根据要求提供儿童座椅)”可知，奥地利的Tim Carsharing采取的措施是提供适合轮椅的车辆。故选 D。 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. B 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者受朋友影响下载Opal应用，设定工作时间屏蔽社交软件，发现此举让思绪更清晰且能管理手机成瘾问题。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Instead of messaging me back in the app, he texted me to say that he’d blocked Instagram on his smartphone during daytime working hours. (他没有在应用里回消息，而是发短信告诉我，他在白天工作时间屏蔽了手机上的Instagram)”可知，特鲁瓦收到作者消息后发了短信回复。故选A项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“I downloaded it without any particular optimism, considering my phone addiction an incurable case. (我下载了它，并没有抱太大希望，认为自己的手机瘾已经无药可救了)”可知，作者下载Opal时态度悲观，对其没有抱太大希望。故选C项。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段“Crucially, Opal also allows users to suspend the block for short periods of time without feeling like failures; when the scheduled break time elapses, the blockage automatically continues. (关键的是，Opal还允许用户在短时间内暂停屏蔽，而不会觉得自己失败了；当预定的休息时间elapses后，屏蔽会自动恢复)”可知，Opal短时间内暂停屏蔽，当时间超过，即预定时间结束后就会屏蔽，所以猜测elapses应表示“结束、过去”，与passes含义相近。故选B项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“I find comfort in the fact that my mind feels clearer after a full workday without scrolling social media, and an added bonus is that once the block ends I can go through all the good posts that I missed. (在一整天不刷社交媒体后，我的头脑感觉更清晰了，这让我感到欣慰。此外，当屏蔽结束后，我还能浏览所有错过的精彩帖子，这是额外的收获)”可知，通过自我控制（用Opal屏蔽社交软件），作者不仅头脑清晰，还能更好地享受后续的内容，说明自我控制能加深愉悦感。故选B项。 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。“孩子放空”是让孩子暑期慵懒、做白日梦的状态，专家认为这种无规划时间利于其心智成长，家长需合理管控屏幕时间、赋予孩子责任，这正是孩子经忙碌学年后所需的休整。 8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“It’s called “kid rotting”, a playful term for what kids should just be in summer: lounging (慵懒), daydreaming and being bored. (这被称为“孩子放空”，这是一个有趣的表述，用来形容孩子们在夏天应有的状态：悠闲地躺着、做着白日梦以及感到无聊。)”可知，“kid rotting”指的是让孩子们故意不去做任何事情。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“But experts suggest the opposite is true, especially when it comes to imagination, independence and emotional development. (但专家们却认为情况恰恰相反，尤其是在想象力、独立性以及情感发展方面。)”可知，专家们支持“儿童成长期”的主要理由是它为孩子的心理成长提供了空间。故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Make screens something that happen with kids, not just around them. Watch a movie together and try a cooking video tutorial as a family. Limit screen time and make it a rule to prioritize real life in summer. (让屏幕成为与孩子们互动交流的媒介，而不仅仅是围绕着他们存在的东西。一起观看一部电影，然后一起尝试一个烹饪视频教程。限制使用屏幕的时间，并制定规则，在夏天优先重视现实生活。)”可知，作者建议家长将孩子使用电子设备的时间问题转化为家庭互动活动。故选A。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Ultimately, a “rot” summer might be the reset children need after a year of packed schedules and digital overuse. Let your child be still, be curious, and be bored, because that’s where they start to figure out who they are. (最终，一个“沉闷”的夏天或许正是孩子们在经历了满满当当的日程安排和过度沉迷于电子设备的一年之后所需要的“重启”。让您的孩子安静下来，保持好奇心，体验一下无聊的感觉，因为正是在这种状态下，他们才开始逐渐认清自己。)”可知，作者列举不同年龄段的孩子的例子是为了表明非结构化时间适用于所有成长阶段。故选D。 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种新的认知模型——系统0，介绍了其本质以及工作原理等情况。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“The growing interaction between humans and artificial intelligence (AI) is shaping a new way of thinking, known as System 0. This new cognitive (认知的) framework exists outside the human mind and works as an external “thinking assistant”. System 0 works alongside the two established models of human thought: System l, which is fast, intuitive (直觉的) , and automatic, and System 2, which is slower, more analytical, and reflective.(人类与人工智能（AI）之间日益增长的互动正在形成一种新的思维方式，即系统0。这个新的认知框架存在于人类思维之外，作为一个外部的“思维助手”。系统0与两种已建立的人类思维模式一起工作：快速、直觉和自动的系统1，以及较慢、更善于分析和反思的系统2)”可知，第1段的目的是介绍一种新的认知模型——系统0。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Hence the idea of System 0, which is essentially a form of “external” thinking that relies on the capabilities of AI.(因此就有了System 0的概念，它本质上是一种依赖于AI能力的“外部”思维形式)”可知，系统0的本质是外部认知增强剂。故选D。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“The integration of system 0 into human cognition raises some concerns. One of the most pressing ones is the potential damage to our critical thinking and reasoning abilities. If we blindly trust the output of system 0 without questioning it, we risk losing our ability to think independently, leading to a weaker capacity for innovation and creativity. At the same time, it is important to acknowledge the potential benefits of system 0 in increasing our cognitive capabilities and addressing complex challenges that may be beyond the capacity of human intelligence alone.(将系统0整合到人类认知中引起了一些关注。其中最紧迫的是对我们批判性思维和推理能力的潜在损害。如果我们盲目相信系统0的产出而不去质疑它，我们就有可能失去独立思考的能力，从而导致创新和创造能力的削弱。与此同时，重要的是要认识到系统0在提高我们的认知能力和解决可能超出人类智能能力的复杂挑战方面的潜在好处)”可知，作者在第4段提到了盲目相信系统0导致的问题，以及系统0的优点，即作者的语气是客观的。故选C。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“To ensure that AI remains a tool to enhance — rather than decrease — our cognitive autonomy, clear boundaries must be established.(为了确保人工智能仍然是增强而不是降低我们认知自主性的工具，必须建立明确的界限)”可知，接下来的段落最有可能讨论严格使用系统0的具体指导方针。故选D。 七选五 本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了11岁女孩Emi Kim因注意到学校图书馆缺乏代表多元群体的书籍而发起项目—the Mirror Books Project，通过募捐购买并捐赠相关书籍，以促进包容和文化理解的故事。 16. F。段中句。空格前介绍了Emi决定做出改变，空格后提到“用这笔钱，她购买并捐赠了书籍”。因此，空格处需要说明资金的来源。选项F “She started to organize bake sales and lemonade stands to raise money.”（她开始组织烘焙义卖和柠檬水摊位来筹款）解释了募捐方式，连接了“决定改变”和“用钱买书”这两个动作，构成了一个完整的行动链条。故F选项正确。 17. G。段中句。空格前一句提出 “她将书籍视为桥梁”，空格处需要具体解释书籍如何起到桥梁作用。选项G “They are an accessible way to ‘meet’ new people and learn about cultures.”（它们是‘结识’新朋友和了解文化的一种便捷方式）中， “They”指代书籍， “accessible way”对应“桥梁”的比喻，具体阐述了书籍连接不同人群和文化的作用，是对前句观点的阐释。故G选项正确。 18. C。段尾句。空格前描述了第一次筹款的成功及其成果。空格后以“Then”开头，介绍了第二次筹款获得了更多资金。因此，空格处应起到承上启下的作用，说明第一次成功如何引出了后续更大的行动。选项C “The first success inspired Emi to make an even greater impact.”（第一次的成功激励了Emi去产生更大的影响）恰好总结了上文，并引出了下文的进一步行动，逻辑连贯。故C选项正确。 19. A。段落标题。该空格位于段落开头，需要一个能概括全段内容的标题。下文详细描述了Emi如何花费大量时间在图书馆阅读、观看在线故事视频，并进行仔细研究以发现有意义的故事，还列举了她最喜欢的书。这一切都围绕如何精心挑选书籍展开。选项A “Choosing suitable books is a thoughtful process.”（选择合适的书籍是一个深思熟虑的过程）概括了本段的核心内容。故A选项正确。 20. E。段中句。空格前描述了项目带来的积极影响，包括孩子们在书中找到自己的影子、同学送来感谢卡等具体“时刻”。空格后则提到“她计划继续她的使命”。因此，空格处需要说明这些积极的反馈与她持续投入之间的因果关系。选项E “These moments fuel her commitment to expanding the project’s reach.”（这些时刻坚定了她扩大项目影响力的决心）中，“These moments”指代前文的积极反馈，“fuel her commitment”则解释了为何她后文会“计划继续”，形成了自然的因果衔接。故E选项正确。 21. 答案：D 解析：由“once a united community”（曾经是团结的社区）和“indifferent”（冷漠的）可知，村民关系从“团结”变为“疏远”，D选项“distant”（疏远的）符合语境；A（熟悉的）、B（习惯的）、C（关联的）均与“团结→冷漠”的转折逻辑不符，排除。 22. 答案：D 解析：前文“桥腐烂，村民疏远，Elias觉得问题太大，仅凭一人无法解决”，说明问题“难以克服”，D选项“unbeatable”（难以战胜的）符合语境；A（不舒服的）、B（简单的）、C（奇怪的）均与“问题艰巨”的描述不符，排除。 23. 答案：B 解析：后文“busy with their farms and arguments”（忙于农活和争吵）及“children”（孩子）的对比可知，此处指“成年人”，B选项“adults”（成年人）符合语境；A（同事）、C（敌人）、D（公司）均与“村庄场景”不符，排除。 24. 答案：C 解析：由“beautiful wooden toys”（木制玩具）和“carpenter”（木匠）的身份可知，Elias的动作是“雕刻”玩具，C选项“carving”（雕刻）符合语境；A（购买）、B（收集）、D（绘画）均与“木匠制作玩具”的场景不符，排除。 25. 答案：B 解析：由“amusing them with stories”（用故事逗他们）可知，Elias是“赠送”玩具给孩子，B选项“gifted”（赠送）符合语境；A（售卖）、C（举起）、D（保存）均与“善意互动”的场景不符，排除。 26. 答案：A 解析：由“then with growing joy”（随后越来越开心）可知，孩子们最初玩耍时“犹豫”，A选项“hesitantly”（犹豫地）符合语境；B（勇敢地）、C（急切地）、D（生气地）均与“从犹豫到开心”的递进逻辑不符，排除。 27. 答案：A 解析：前文“村民疏远”，后文“父母重新交谈”，说明“氛围”发生改变，A选项“atmosphere”（氛围）符合语境；B（场合）、C（功能）、D（环境）均与“人际关系氛围变化”的核心不符，排除。 28. 答案：A 解析：由“started talking to each other again”（重新开始交谈）可知，父母的态度从“冷漠”变得“温和”，A选项“soften”（变软，温和）符合语境；B（破碎）、C（跳动）、D（紧绷）均与“态度缓和”不符，排除。 29. 答案：C 解析：由“gathered with their... ready to work as one”（聚集起来，准备共同工作）可知，村民被孩子的笑声“激励”，C选项“inspired”（激励）符合语境；A（唤醒）、B（打断）、D（惹恼）均与“共同建桥”的积极行动不符，排除。 30. 答案：C 解析：由“built the new bridge”（建桥）可知，村民带来的是“工具”，C选项“tools”（工具）符合语境；A（刀）、B（亲戚）、D（玩具）均与“建桥”的动作无关，排除。 31. 答案：A 解析：前文“村民曾经团结，后疏远”，现在重新合作，说明“重新找回”信任，A选项“rediscovered”（重新发现的）符合语境；B（重新充电的）、C（潜在的）、D（暂时的）均与“恢复信任”的语境不符，排除。 32. 答案：B 解析：由“divided by a wide river”（被大河分隔）和“reunited community”（重聚的社区）可知，此处指“隔阂”，B选项“divides”（分歧，隔阂）符合语境；A（遗憾）、C（山谷）、D（记忆）均与“社区隔阂”的核心不符，排除。 33. 答案：D 解析：由“crossed by force”（用武力跨越）和“building quiet connections”（建立温和连接）对比可知，此处指“跨越隔阂”，D选项“bridged”（架桥，跨越）符合语境；A（建立）、B（延迟）、C（衡量）均与“跨越隔阂”的语义不符，排除。 34. 答案：A 解析：后文“it was a symbol of a reunited community”（是社区重聚的象征）可知，这座桥“不仅仅是”木制的，A选项“more than”（不仅仅）符合语境；B（除了）、C（除……之外）、D（远非）均与“实体桥→象征意义”的递进逻辑不符，排除。 35. 答案：B 解析：由“reunited community”（重聚的社区）可知，这段经历留下的是“温暖”，B选项“warmth”（温暖）符合语境；A（教训）、C（神秘）、D（挑战）均与“社区重聚的积极感受”不符，排除。 36. launching 37. anxious 38. concepts 39. was drawn 40. a 41. to introduce 42. quietly 43. which 44. imbalance 45.

Opening my grandfather’s diary, I pointed at the faded photo of his class. “Your camera can save the moment for the future,” I told Jake, whose eyes suddenly sparkled. Then I suggested he photograph every corner of the school like “time travelers”. Meanwhile, Lily was engaged in my grandfather’s love letter, eager to bring hidden stories back to life. I was busy organizing layouts, combining historical accuracy with creativity. The clock was ticking, but our laughter replaced earlier frustration. On the final day, we presented our brochure in class. We stood by the blackboard as everyone went through the pages. They examined the brochure carefully, with their fingers tracing the photos, narratives and timelines which connected three generations of graduates. Noticing surprise on every face, we couldn’t wait to hear Mr. Dow’s announcement of the winner. “This work isn’t just about the school anniversary,” he finally said, tapping the cover where our three names shone, “it’s about how its spirit lives through students’ cooperation.” That afternoon in the library, seeing our brochure on display, we realized our combined talents had created what none could alone. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者和同学为学校百年校庆制作小册子的经历，展现了团队合作中的挑战、沟通、冲突解决以及最终的成功。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“只剩下三天时间了，我知道必须采取行动了。”以及第二段首句内容“在最后一天，我们在课堂上展示了我们的宣传册。”可知，第一段可描写作者让Jake和Lily一起设计宣传册的过程，其中包含三人分别干什么的内容。 ②由第二段首句内容“在最后一天，我们在课堂上展示了我们的宣传册。”可知，第二段可描写作者和朋友所设计的宣传册大获成功。 2.续写线索：只剩下三天的时候，作者知道必须赶紧行动——作者邀请Jake和Lily来家中商讨宣传册一事——作者翻开祖父的日记，建议Jake可以用相机记录一切——而Lily则被祖父的情书所吸引——作者则负责设计——最后一天，三人在课堂上展示了宣传册——同学们都大为惊叹——最终，作者他们所设计的宣传册获得了成功，而作者也意识到团体合作的重要性 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①建议：suggest/recommend ②正忙于：be engaged in/be occupied with ③注意：notice/take notice of 情绪类 ①渴望做某事：be eager to do sth./be anxious to do sth. ②惊讶：surprise/amazement 【点睛】【高分句型1】Then I suggested he photograph every corner of the school like “time travelers”.（运用了省略that的宾语从句） 【高分句型2】We stood by the blackboard as everyone went through the pages.（运用了as引导的时间状语从句） 1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 勤建学校高三年级上学期第三次调研考试 英语试卷 2025.12 第一部分 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A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Shared Mobility: Making Travel Easier for All Shared mobility services, such as carshares and bikeshares, have positive effects on the environment. However, access to these services is not equal for everyone. Research shows that shared mobility services are more commonly available in wealthier urban areas. Most users tend to be younger, wealthier, and physically able. To build a sustainable transportation system, it is essential to make these services inclusive for all people. Some cities have introduced programs to support low-income residents. These programs help increase the use of shared vehicles and reduce dependence on personal cars. Recently, about 70% of micromobility programs in the US have taken measures to better serve disadvantaged groups, such as accepting cash payments and offering non-smartphone booking options. Still, many barriers remain. Surveys indicate that people in rural areas and those with lower incomes encounter more obstacles when trying to use bikeshares. Cost, lack of familiarity, and limited availability are common problems, as illustrated in the Figure. Non-profit organizations are also playing an important role. For example, SharedMobility Inc., a Buffalo-based NGO, provides free e-bikes to underserved communities and organizes training sessions to promote cycling culture and safety. Mobitwin in Belgium supports elderly people and those with limited mobility by providing affordable rides booked via telephone. Similarly, Tim Carsharing in Austria offers vehicles suitable for wheelchairs and provides child seats upon request. In conclusion, understanding different needs and making services more adaptable are key steps toward fair and sustainable urban transportation. 1. What is the purpose of making shared mobility services inclusive for all? A. To promote cash payments. B. To lower transportation costs. C. To make transportation sustainable. D. To reduce reliance on private cars. 2. Which is the major obstacle preventing low-income urban people from using bikeshares? A. Safety concerns. B. High cost. C. Lack of familiarity. D. Limited availability. 3. Which measure is taken by Tim Carsharing in Austria? A. Providing free e-bikes. B. Booking rides by smartphone. C. Organizing training sessions. D. Offering wheelchair-friendly vehicles. B On a recent weekday, I sent an Instagram message to a friend of mine, an art adviser named Stephen Truax, to chat about an exhibition. Instead of messaging me back in the app, he texted me to say that he’d blocked Instagram on his smartphone during daytime working hours. Impressed, I asked him how he was accomplishing such an achievement. Truax said he was using Opal, an app that makes your smartphone more like a so-called dumbphone (功能机). He said that several of his friends swore by the app, and so he had begun using it, too. I took this word of mouth as evidence that it might actually work. I downloaded it without any particular optimism, considering my phone addiction an incurable case. Opal provides something like gentle parenting for your smartphone habits: you set up a daily schedule of which apps to block, and then the app guides you into sticking with it. As the app suggested, I set up a “Work Time” block from 9 A.M. to 5 P.M. and selected every social app I ever use. At the scheduled time, those apps go gray on my home screen and remain that way all day. Every time I’m frustrated that I can’t look at Instagram on my phone, I just think, surely I, a human adult, can wait a few more hours to see my friends’ dog photos — 5 P.M. isn’t that far away. Crucially, Opal also allows users to suspend the block for short periods of time without feeling like failures; when the scheduled break time elapses, the blockage automatically continues. I find comfort in the fact that my mind feels clearer after a full workday without scrolling social media, and an added bonus is that once the block ends I can go through all the good posts that I missed. As Truax told me, “The flood of content that happens after dinner is wild.” The addiction is not cured, perhaps, but at least it’s finally managed. 4. What did Truax do after receiving the message from the author? A. He texted back. B. He replied in Opal. C. He blocked Instagram. D. He chatted about the exhibition. 5. How did the author feel when downloading Opal? A. Disappointed. B. Helpful. C. Pessimistic. D. Impressed. 6. What does the underlined word “elapses” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Starts. B. Passes C. Separates. D. Approaches. 7. What can we learn from the text? A. Surfing the web makes the mind clearer. B. Practising self-control deepens enjoyment. C. It’s best to surf the latest news after supper. D. It is impossible to ease phone addiction. C As the school year winds down, summer camps, enrichment programs and extracurricular planning step up. However, a quieter contrary trend is starting to gain attention. It’s called “kid rotting”, a playful term for what kids should just be in summer: lounging (慵懒), daydreaming and being bored. Behind the phrase is a serious shift in thinking. More experts are beginning to ask whether kids might actually need more unstructured time, not less. Parents may worry that unstructured time will lead to laziness. But experts suggest the opposite is true, especially when it comes to imagination, independence and emotional development. “When kids aren’t scheduled every minute, they daydream, explore their interests, think critically, solve problems and build confidence, gaining the very skills that often get sidelined during a tightly structured school year,” says Tanyell Cole, a therapist with a bachelor’s in psychology. Let kids decide how to use unstructured time, with games or outdoor play. Over time, that freedom becomes something they value and even look forward to. One of the biggest barriers to an unscheduled summer is screen time. What starts as a little leisure time can quickly become hours lost to social media scrolling. That’s where intentional supervision (监督) comes in. Make screens something that happen with kids, not just around them. Watch a movie together and try a cooking video tutorial as a family. Limit screen time and make it a rule to prioritize real life in summer. With unstructured time, a 3-year-old can get their own snack if it’s within reach. A 10-year-old can cook a meal. A teen can get a summer job or volunteer. When kids are trusted with real responsibilities, they begin to trust themselves, and that sense of capability is what drives true confidence. Ultimately, a “rot” summer might be the reset children need after a year of packed schedules and digital overuse. Let your child be still, be curious, and be bored, because that’s where they start to figure out who they are. 8. What does “kid rotting” refer to? A. Involving kids in after-class activities. B. Letting kids do nothing intentionally. C. Stopping kids to pursue their dreams. D. Arranging for kids to do daily chores. 9. What is the main reason for experts supporting “kid rotting”? A. It keeps kids from daydreaming all day. B. It helps increase kids’ academic scores. C. It opens up space for kids’ mental growth. D. It could reduce parents’ summer expenses. 10. What does the author suggest parents do about screen time? A. Transform it into family interactive activities. B. Completely quit social media during summer. C. Allow it only for educational purposes. D. Let kids manage their own screen time. 11. Why does the author give examples of children at different ages? A. To prove the varying levels of supervision they need. B. To argue for the significance of summer jobs for teens. C. To stress the necessity of learning basic life skills early. D. To show unstructured time applies to all growth stages. D The growing interaction between humans and artificial intelligence (AI) is shaping a new way of thinking, known as System 0. This new cognitive (认知的) framework exists outside the human mind and works as an external “thinking assistant”. System 0 works alongside the two established models of human thought: System l, which is fast, intuitive (直觉的) , and automatic, and System 2, which is slower, more analytical, and reflective. Just as an external drive allows us to store data that are not present on the computer, and we can work by connecting our drive to a PC wherever we are. AI, with its powerful processing and data-handling capabilities, can represent an external circuit to the human brain capable of enhancing it. Hence the idea of System 0, which is essentially a form of “external” thinking that relies on the capabilities of AI. By managing enormous amounts of data, AI can process information and provide suggestions based on complex algorithms (算法). However, unlike intuitive or analytical thinking, System 0 can perform calculations, make predictions, and generate responses without truly “understanding” the content of the data it works with. The integration of system 0 into human cognition raises some concerns. One of the most pressing ones is the potential damage to our critical thinking and reasoning abilities. If we blindly trust the output of system 0 without questioning it, we risk losing our ability to think independently, leading to a weaker capacity for innovation and creativity. At the same time, it is important to acknowledge the potential benefits of system 0 in increasing our cognitive capabilities and addressing complex challenges that may be beyond the capacity of human intelligence alone. Despite the polarized visions on the topic of the evolution of AI, we recommend that this revolutionary system be the object of a deep, shared reflection on how we plan to integrate it into the future of human thought. To ensure that AI remains a tool to enhance — rather than decrease — our cognitive autonomy, clear boundaries must be established. 12. What is the purpose of paragraph 1? A. To state AI’s influence on daily life. B. To introduce a new cognitive model. C. To compare three thinking systems. D. To discuss AI’s role in decision-making 13. Which can best describe the essence of System 0? A. A deep meaning seeker. B. An analytical thinking pioneer. C. A smart decision-maker. D. An external cognitive enhancer. 14. What is the author’s tone carried in paragraph 4? A. Pushy. B. Indifferent. C. Objective. D. Dismissive. 15. What will the follow-up paragraph most probably talk about? A. Moral dilemmas in human-AI integration. B. Possibly promising prospects of System 0. C. Technical challenges in sharpening System 0. D. Specific guidelines on using System 0 critically. 第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据下面短文，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。 Noticing that her school library had few books featuring characters who looked like her,11-year- old Emi Kim decided to make a change by launching the Mirror Books Project. 16 With the money,she bought and donated books that reflect a wider range of people so everyone can feel included.

It connected me to my roots, as my father and grandfather had all graduated from here. So, when our teacher Mr. Dow announced a group project to create a brochure (小册子) about our school for its 100th anniversary, I was thrilled. The best three brochures would be displayed in the school library, which was a chance to show the new students how wonderful our school was. I was paired with two classmates: Jake. who loved photography, and Lily who had a gift for writing. Working with others could be fun, right? But my enthusiasm quickly faded. Our first meeting was a disaster. When we discussed which part of the school we should focus on, Jake kept talking about cameras and photos. I turned to Lily, hoping for some support. But she simply shrugged and said, “I’m not really into this. It sounds boring.” Jake nodded in agreement. The project seemed to be harder than I thought. At our next meeting, I tried to lead the conversation back to the project. I shared some interesting facts I had researched about the school. However, neither of them seemed interested. Jake had promised to gather materials from the library, but instead he showed us photos taken on the weekend. Lily hadn’t started her part of the research either, claiming she had been too busy. I felt like I was the only one who cared. Back home, I decided to take matters into my own hands. I stayed up late that night, trying to create the brochure by myself. But no matter how hard I tried, the result was far from satisfactory. I was exhausted and disheartened. My mom noticed I was upset. “You can’t do this alone,” she gently reminded me. “Jake and Lily have talents that can make this project shine. You just need to find a way to get them involved.” 注意： 1.续写词数为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 With only three days left, I knew I had to act. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On the final day, we presented our brochure in class. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
