They decided to share their sweet treats with a hospitalized boy named Jacob, whose family had unexpectedly canceled their traditional candy giveaway. Jacob, a 10-year-old who loves dressing up as a superhero every Halloween, had to stay in bed. His mother, Amy Schmitt, a nurse, explained that they had planned to hand out candies with Jacob, but his condition suddenly worsened on Tuesday. “We didn’t want to disappoint the kids, so I left a note saying we couldn’t give out candy this year, ” Amy said, holding back tears. However, the neighborhood kids noticed the absence of the usual cheerful “Trick or Treat!” from the Schmitts’ house. When 8-year-old Mia Sayen pressed the doorbell and saw no response, she told her dad, “Something feels off. Mrs. Schmitt always has the best candy!” Curious, Mia checked the doorbell camera footage (录像) and saw Amy’s note. She realized her worry was true. Mia decided to do something for Jacob. After collecting candies from her first round of trick-or-treating, she begged her dad, “Can we go back and give my candy to Jacob?” Her father agreed, and soon, other kids joined in. By the end of the night, the Schmitts’ doorstep was covered with colorful candies — chocolates, gummies, and lollipops — left by kids who refused to take any for themselves. Amy was amazed when she saw the pile. “I couldn’t believe it. These kids didn’t even know Jacob well, but they cared so much,” she said. “Their parents must have taught them kindness.” The story quickly spread on social media, with many praising the community’s spirit. “It’s not just about candies — it’s about humanity,” one neighbor commented. For Jacob, who peeked (快速看) at the candies from his hospital bed, the act was the best Halloween gift ever. 4. Why was Jacob unable to enjoy Halloween as usual? A. His family hadn’t planned it. B. He had to care for his ill mother. C. A sickness landed him in hospital. D. The children didn’t visit his house. 5. How did Mia discover Jacob’s situation? A. She inferred it from a sign. B.

Quick-eyed and caring. D. Helpful and responsible. 7. What lesson does the author want to tell through the text? A. Festivals improve relationships. B. Kids prefer holidays to daily life. C. Community events bring children joy. D. Goodness can light up others’ moments. 【答案】4. C 5. A 6. C 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述万圣节当晚孩子们给住院男孩雅各布送糖果的暖心故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Jacob, a 10-year-old who loves dressing up as a superhero every Halloween, had to stay in bed. His mother, Amy Schmitt, a nurse, explained that they had planned to hand out candies with Jacob, but his condition suddenly worsened on Tuesday. (10岁的雅各布每年万圣节都喜欢装扮成超级英雄，可这次却不得不卧病在床。他的母亲艾米・施密特是一名护士，她解释说他们原本计划和雅各布一起分发糖果，但周二他的病情突然恶化了)”可知，雅各布因为病情恶化住院，无法像往常一样过万圣节。故选C项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Curious, Mia checked the doorbell camera footage (录像) and saw Amy’s note. She realized her worry was true. (米娅很好奇，查看了门铃摄像头的录像，看到了艾米的纸条。她意识到自己的担心是对的)”可知，米娅是通过查看门铃录像发现纸条，从而得知雅各布的情况的。故选A项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的 “However, the neighborhood kids noticed the absence of the usual cheerful “Trick or Treat!” from the Schmitts’ house. When 8-year-old Mia Sayen pressed the doorbell and saw no response, she told her dad, “Something feels off. (然而，邻居家的孩子们注意到施密特家没有了往常欢快的“不给糖就捣蛋”的声音。8岁的米娅・塞恩按了门铃却没人回应，她对爸爸说：“感觉有点不对劲。”)”以及第四段中的“Mia decided to do something for Jacob. (米娅决定为雅各布做点什么)”可知，米娅能敏锐察觉到异常，并且主动想要帮助雅各布，由此可推断她观察力敏锐且富有同情心。故选C项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“The story quickly spread on social media, with many praising the community’s spirit. “It’s not just about candies — it’s about humanity,” one neighbor commented. (这个故事很快在社交媒体上传播开来，许多人都称赞这个社区的精神。一位邻居评论道：“这不仅仅是关于糖果 —— 这关乎人性。”)”以及全文内容可知，作者通过孩子们送糖果的故事，想要传递善良能照亮他人时刻的道理。故选D项。 C Many people now use devices to track their sleep. Annie, observing her sleep each morning with a smartwatch as countless others do, uses the data to see how well she rests and feels during the day. While sleep tracking is a fast-growing industry, with products like rings, headbands, and watches all promising better rest, experts warn we must understand their limitations. The best way to measure sleep is called polysomnography. In a sleep lab, many sensors record brain waves, eye movements, breathing, heart rate, and blood oxygen. This shows sleep stages, awakening, and the speed of falling asleep. Wearables do not measure brain waves. Instead, they estimate (评估) sleep from movement, heart rate, temperature, and oxygen levels. Because of this, their sleep/wake and sleep-stage results are not always correct. What your arms do may not match what your brain is doing. Another challenge is defining “good sleep.” Adults are advised to sleep 7-9 hours, but “sleep quality” is more complex (复杂的). It includes how continuous sleep is and how much time you spend in each stage. Also, how you feel can conflict with the data. Some people report poor sleep, yet lab tests look normal. There is even a term, orthosomnia, for becoming too focused on perfect scores, which can make sleep worse. Still, trackers can help you learn what affects your rest. One person found evening pilates helped. Another saw that alcohol raised her sleeping heart rate by about 10%. Continuous, at-home data lets you see patterns over weeks, not just one lab night. Experts suggest using trackers to support healthy habits: regular sleep times, less caffeine late in the day, limited alcohol, daily exercise, and a cool, quiet bedroom. Some also watch heart rate or heart rate variability to notice early signs of illness and rest more. Finally, consumer trackers are not medical tools. Algorithms (算法) may miss problems in certain groups, and sleep changes with age. But if trackers start helpful conversations and lead to better habits, they can be a good thing. 8. What does the example of Annie suggest? A. Many people experience sleep difficulties. B. Tracking sleep is now a common practice. C. Sleep trackers can help people sleep better. D. Wearables are a source of needless anxiety. 9. How does the author mainly develop paragraph 2? A. By listing numbers. B. By describing a process. C. By giving examples. D. By making a comparison. 10. What does the underlined phrase “conflict with” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Differ from. B. Result in. C. depend on. D. Go beyond. 11. What is the purpose of the text? A. To prove the effectiveness of sleep trackers. B. To highlight the limitations of sleep trackers. C. To recommend the wise use of sleep trackers. D. To guide the choice of suitable sleep trackers. 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍睡眠追踪设备的流行、局限性及合理使用该设备的相关建议。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Many people now use devices to track their sleep. Annie, observing her sleep each morning with a smartwatch as countless others do, uses the data to see how well she rests and feels during the day. (现在很多人都使用设备来追踪自己的睡眠情况。安妮和无数人一样，每天早上用智能手表查看自己的睡眠数据，以此了解自己白天的休息状态和身体感受)”可知，安妮的例子是为了说明使用设备追踪睡眠如今是一种普遍的做法。故选B项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“The best way to measure sleep is called polysomnography. In a sleep lab, many sensors record brain waves, eye movements, breathing, heart rate, and blood oxygen. This shows sleep stages, awakening, and the speed of falling asleep. Wearables do not measure brain waves. Instead, they estimate (评估) sleep from movement, heart rate, temperature, and oxygen levels. (测量睡眠的最佳方法被称为多导睡眠监测。在睡眠实验室中，许多传感器会记录脑电波、眼球运动、呼吸、心率和血氧水平。这种方法可以显示睡眠阶段、清醒次数和入睡速度。可穿戴设备无法测量脑电波，而是通过运动、心率、体温和血氧水平来估算睡眠情况)”可知，作者将多导睡眠监测和可穿戴睡眠追踪设备的测量方式进行对比，以此展开第二段内容。故选D项。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中的“Also, how you feel can conflict with the data. Some people report poor sleep, yet lab tests look normal. (此外，个人的主观感受可能与数据conflict with。有些人说自己睡眠很差，但实验室检测结果却显示正常)”可知，主观感受和客观数据的情况不一致，由此推测conflict with的意思是“与……不一致”，和Differ from含义相近。故选A项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的 “While sleep tracking is a fast-growing industry, with products like rings, headbands, and watches all promising better rest, experts warn we must understand their limitations.(虽然睡眠追踪是一个快速发展的行业，像戒指、发带和手表等产品都承诺更好的睡眠，但专家警告说，我们必须了解它们的局限性)”、第四段中的“Still, trackers can help you learn what affects your rest(不过，追踪器可以帮助你了解影响你休息的因素)”以及最后一段中的“But if trackers start helpful conversations and lead to better habits, they can be a good thing(但如果追踪器能开启有益的对话，并养成更好的习惯，那它可能是一件好事)”可知，本文既介绍了睡眠追踪设备的局限性，也说明了其作用，目的是引导人们明智地使用这类设备。故选C项。 D Recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI) have led to significant breakthroughs in translation technologies. AI translation is useful in some situations. For example, helping teachers communicate with parents who speak a different language, or when travelling. Translation technology may even help protect endangered languages from disappearing by supporting online collections of literature. With AI-powered technology in these digital libraries, more people can appreciate these works. But while technology can translate messages, it misses an important part of human communication — the cultural nuances (细微差别) behind the words. So, while AI translation can bridge language gaps and make communication easier, it’s important to be clear about the benefits and challenges it presents. Relying only on technology to translate between languages will finally lead to misunderstandings and a less rich human experience. The new technology also comes with limitations. In 2019, workers at an immigration (移民) center in the United States used AI translation to deal with an asylum (庇护) case. The voice tool could not understand the applicant’s accent, and the person was kept there for six months without being able to explain clearly. In 2021, a police officer used Google Translate to ask a Spanish-speaking woman if he could search her car. The app chose a wrong word, which caused confusion. Learning additional languages also stands out as one of the best ways to improve ourselves, with benefits for brain health, social skills, cultural understanding, and career opportunities. A study in 2022 found that people who speak more than one language have quicker minds and may delay brain aging. It also showed that learning several languages helps people respect and understand each other better. While AI-powered translation technology has its uses, a great deal can be lost if we rely only on it to communicate. The nuances of languages, and what they say about different cultures, are difficult to communicate via translation tools. And the benefits of being bilingual (双语的) or multilingual — both personally and for the wider society — risk being lost if we don’t support second language learning. 12. What does paragraph 1 stress about AI translation? A. Its literary value. B. Its advanced tools. C. Its future development. D. Its practical applications. 13. What can be inferred about AI translation from the examples in paragraph 3? A. It takes little time to be reliable in daily life. B. It can make serious errors in important cases. C. It works better with written texts than speech. D. It will replace human translators sooner or later. 14. Why is the 2022 study mentioned in the text? A. To support a point. B. To stress a problem. C. To introduce a topic. D. To question a belief. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. AI Translation: The Technology Develops Fast B. Relying on Technology: The Costs Are Unseen C. AI Era: Why We Still Need Language Learning D. Language Education: How AI Changes the Way We Learn 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. A 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要探讨人工智能翻译的应用、局限及仍需重视语言学习的原因。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“AI translation is useful in some situations. For example, helping teachers communicate with parents who speak a different language, or when travelling. Translation technology may even help protect endangered languages from disappearing by supporting online collections of literature.(人工智能翻译在一些情况下很有用。例如，帮助教师与说不同语言的家长沟通，或者在旅行时使用。翻译技术甚至可以通过支持在线文献收藏，帮助保护濒危语言免于消失)” 可知，第一段通过列举不同场景的用法，强调了人工智能翻译的实际应用价值。故选D项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“In 2019, workers at an immigration center in the United States used AI translation to deal with an asylum case. The voice tool could not understand the applicant’s accent, and the person was kept there for six months without being able to explain clearly. In 2021, a police officer used Google Translate to ask a Spanish-speaking woman if he could search her car. The app chose a wrong word, which caused confusion.(2019年，美国一家移民中心的工作人员使用人工智能翻译处理一桩庇护案件。这个语音工具无法听懂申请人的口音，导致此人被滞留了六个月，却无法清晰地说明情况。2021年，一名警察使用谷歌翻译询问一名说西班牙语的女子是否可以搜查她的车。该应用程序选错了一个单词，引发了混乱)”可知，这两个例子均体现出人工智能翻译在重要场合中会出现严重失误，造成不良后果。故选B项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Learning additional languages also stands out as one of the best ways to improve ourselves, with benefits for brain health, social skills, cultural understanding, and career opportunities. A study in 2022 found that people who speak more than one language have quicker minds and may delay brain aging.(学习额外的语言也是提升自我的最佳方式之一，对大脑健康、社交技能、文化理解和职业机会都有好处。2022年的一项研究发现，会说多种语言的人思维更敏捷，且可能延缓大脑衰老)”可知，2022年的研究是为了支撑“学习额外语言能提升自我”这一观点。故选A项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，尤其是最后一段“ While AI-powered translation technology has its uses, a great deal can be lost if we rely only on it to communicate. The nuances of languages, and what they say about different cultures, are difficult to communicate via translation tools. And the benefits of being bilingual (双语的) or multilingual — both personally and for the wider society — risk being lost if we don’t support second language learning.(虽然人工智能翻译技术有其用途，但如果我们只依靠它来交流，就会失去很多东西。语言的细微差别，以及它们所表达的不同文化，很难通过翻译工具进行交流。如果我们不支持第二语言学习，双语或多语的好处——无论是对个人还是对更广泛的社会——都有可能失去)”可知，本文核心论点是在人工智能翻译时代，我们依然需要重视语言学习。因此C项“人工智能时代：为什么我们仍然需要语言学习”可以作为本文标题。故选C项。 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Stay Safe During a Typhoon When a typhoon strikes, the world outside can change from calm to dangerous in just a few minutes.

At the expo, the travel company Vertaxi set up a “vertip”, ____37____ (let) visitors experience the full process of “flying a ride” — from scanning (扫描) a QR code ____38____ (board) to taking off. Reporters from Shanghai Television test-rode the company’s latest manned aircraft, the M1 “air taxi,” and described it as surprisingly ____39____ (space) and comfortable. The five-seat cabin hold at least five 20-inch suitcases, with ultra-thin seven-centimeter seats ____40____ (design) to free up legroom. A trip from Hongqiao to Pudong would take a mere 10 minutes, while flying from the National Exhibition and Convention Center to Yangcheng Lake would take around 15 minutes, a ____41____ (striking) shorter time compared to an hour or more by car, the company said. Another model was the E20 eVTOL, ____42____ electric vertical (竖直的) takeoff and landing aircraft capable of flying 200 kilometers ____43____ a speed of 320 km/h. It carries one pilot and four passengers and, being fully electric, ____44____ (expect) to keep flight costs close to a taxi ride — about the same price for a 100-kilometer journey. The company’s representative said that commercial operations could begin as early as next year, calling the “flying taxi” era “forthcoming.” The concept has caused a heated ____45____ (discuss) online. Many netizens celebrated it as “the future of commuting” and “a sci-fi dream come true,” while others were concerned, noting that safety standards, legal frameworks, and pilot training should be established before the service takes flight. 【答案】36. where 37. letting 38. to board 39. spacious 40. designed 41. strikingly 42. an 43. at 44. is expected 45. discussion 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了今年中国国际进口博览会上展示的“空中出租车”相关情况及引发讨论。 【36题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：今年的中国国际进口博览会是一场令人印象深刻的活动，参观者们提前预览了这座城市的“空中出租车”未来。空处需用关系词引导非限制性定语从句，先行词是This year’s China International Import Expo，指物，且在定语从句中作地点状语，所以空处需用关系副词where引导定语从句。故填where。 【37题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：在博览会上，旅游公司Vertaxi设立了一个“垂直站点”，让参观者体验“飞行乘坐”的全过程——从扫描二维码登机到起飞。本句已有谓语动词set up，且空处没有连词，所以空处需用非谓语动词作状语，此处动词let与其逻辑主语Vertaxi之间是主动关系，所以空处需用现在分词letting作状语。故填letting。 【38题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意同上。“scan a QR code to board”是固定搭配“扫码为了登机”，因此用不定式作目的状语。故填to board。 【39题详解】 考查形容词。句意：上海电视台的记者试乘了该公司最新的人驾驶飞机M1“空中出租车”，并形容它宽敞舒适得令人惊讶。空处与形容词comfortable并列，作宾语补足语，描述“air taxi”的特点，故用space对应的形容词spacious，意为“宽敞的”。故填spacious。 【40题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：五座客舱至少可容纳五个20英寸的手提箱，超薄的七厘米座椅设计用于释放腿部空间。本句已有谓语动词hold，且空处没有连词，所以空处需用非谓语动词，构成with的复合结构，动词design与其逻辑主语seats之间是被动关系，所以空处需用过去分词designed作宾语补足语。故填designed。 【41题详解】 考查副词比较级。句意：该公司表示，从虹桥到浦东只需10分钟，而从国家会展中心飞到阳澄湖大约需要15分钟，与开车一小时或更长时间相比，时间明显更短。空处需用副词作状语修饰形容词shorter，根据空后“compared to an hour or more by car”可知，空处需用副词比较级strikingly“显著地，明显地”。故填strikingly。 【42题详解】 考查冠词。句意：另一款是E20 eVTOL，一种电动垂直起降飞机，能够以320公里/小时的速度飞行200公里。空处需用冠词修饰名词aircraft，此处表示泛指，且electric以元音音素开头，所以空处需用不定冠词an。故填an。 【43题详解】 考查介词。句意同上。at a speed of…，固定搭配，意为“以……的速度”。故填at。 【44题详解】 考查时态和语态及主谓一致。句意：它可搭载一名飞行员和四名乘客，由于是全电动，预计飞行成本将接近乘坐出租车——100公里的行程价格大致相同。句子主语 it 指代前文的E20 eVTOL，与expect是被动关系，且陈述客观事实，故用一般现在时的被动语态，主语是第三人称单数，所以be动词需用is。故填is expected。 【45题详解】 考查名词。句意：这个概念在网上引起了热烈的讨论。a heated后需接可数名词单数，discuss的名词为discussion“讨论”。故填discussion。 第四部分 写作 （共两节，满分40分） 第一节 （满分15分） 46. 假定你是学校英语俱乐部主席李华，为丰富校园文化生活，提升同学们的英语表达与合作能力，俱乐部计划举办一场“英语戏剧之夜 （English Drama Night）”活动。请你给外教David写信邀请他作为活动嘉宾，并在演出后进行简短的点评，内容包括： （1） 写信目的；（2） 活动时间和地点；（3） 活动内容。 注意：（1） 写作词数应为80个左右；（2） 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Dear David, ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】Dear David, I’m Li Hua, chairman of the school English Club.

I was watering the flowers in my yard when I noticed a man standing near the Smiths’ house across the street. He walked slowly along the fence and kept looking at the windows. Sometimes he stopped and stared for a long time. Since the Smiths were not home, his strange behavior made me feel uneasy. After watching him for several minutes, I decided to walk over. “Excuse me,” I said carefully, “can I help you?” The man turned around quickly. He looked tired, and his clothes seemed old. “I used to live in this house,” he said in a low voice. “I sold it last year after my business failed. I didn’t come to cause trouble. I just wanted to look at it again.” His voice sounded honest, but I still felt unsure. He kept looking down at the ground, and his hands were shaking a little. I didn’t want anything dangerous to happen, so I stepped back and quietly called the police. A few minutes later, a police car arrived. The officers asked him several questions. Even though he repeated the same story, the officers still looked suspicious (怀疑的). One of them said, “There were break-ins in this area recently. We need to take you to the station and ask more questions.” The man looked helpless but did not resist (反抗). The police took him away. The street became quiet. I stood there, wondering if I had made the right choice. About an hour later, Mr. and Mrs. Smith returned from work. As soon as I saw them, I went over and explained everything — the strange man, what he said, and how the police took him away. “We bought this house last year,” Mrs. Smith said. “The previous owner was a middle-aged man. He looked very upset when we moved in. He didn’t even want to walk around the house for the last time.” Mr. Smith nodded slowly. “Maybe the man you saw is the same person,” he said. “We can’t be sure, but we should check.” 注意：（1） 续写词数应为150个左右；（2） 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Then Mr. Smith drove me to the police station. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I stepped forward and said sorry to him. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Then Mr. Smith drove me to the police station. We explained the whole story to the police officers, showing that the man was likely the former owner of the Smiths’ house. After checking the man’s identity and confirming his words, the police agreed he was not a suspect. We were led to the room where he was waiting. He sat silently with his head down, looking even more dejected than before. Seeing us, he slowly lifted his eyes, with a faint glimmer of surprise in them. I stepped forward and said sorry to him. I told him I had acted out of concern for the neighborhood’s safety and felt regretful for misunderstanding him. He forced a weak smile and said he didn’t blame me as he knew his behavior must have seemed strange. Before leaving, he asked if he could take one last look at the house’s garden. Mr. Smith nodded warmly and invited him to visit anytime. The afternoon sun broke through the clouds, casting a soft light over the street. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了作者在一个安静的周日下午，看到一名男子在已卖掉的旧居前徘徊，因担心其有不良企图而报警，后得知男子只是因生意失败卖房后想再看一眼旧居，作者为此感到愧疚的的的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“然后史密斯先生开车送我去警察局。”可知，第一段可描写作者和史密斯先生到警察局后向警察说明情况，确认男子身份，警察同意释放男子，作者他们见到男子时他的状态。 ②由第二段首句内容“我上前向他道歉。”可知，第二段可描写作者向男子道歉，男子表示理解，男子离开前提出再看一眼房子花园，史密斯先生热情邀请他随时来访。 2.续写线索： 去警察局——解释情况——确认身份——见到男子——道歉——男子理解——男子提出请求——邀请来访 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①说明情况：explain the story/clarify the situation / account for what happened ②核实身份：check the identity/confirm one’s identity ③向某人道歉：say sorry to sb /apologize to sb. / make an apology to sb. 情绪类 ①些许惊讶：a faint glimmer of surprise /a faint trace of surprise ②热情地：warmlys/fervidly 【点睛】【高分句型1】We explained the whole story to the police officers, showing that the man was likely the former owner of the Smiths’ house.（运用了that引导宾语从句） 【高分句型2】Before leaving, he asked if he could take one last look at the house’s garden.（运用了if引导的宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ NT20名校联合体高一年级12月质量检测考试 英语（一） 注意事项：1. 考试时间为120分钟，满分150分。 2. 答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡相应的位置。 3. 全部答案在答题卡上完成，答在本试卷上无效。 第一部分 听力 （共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

B On Halloween night, while most kids were busy collecting candies from door to door, a group of children in Woodhaven, Michigan, did something unusual. They decided to share their sweet treats with a hospitalized boy named Jacob, whose family had unexpectedly canceled their traditional candy giveaway. Jacob, a 10-year-old who loves dressing up as a superhero every Halloween, had to stay in bed. His mother, Amy Schmitt, a nurse, explained that they had planned to hand out candies with Jacob, but his condition suddenly worsened on Tuesday. “We didn’t want to disappoint the kids, so I left a note saying we couldn’t give out candy this year, ” Amy said, holding back tears. However the neighborhood kids noticed the absence of the usual cheerful “Trick or Treat!” from the Schmitts’ house. When 8-year-old Mia Sayen pressed the doorbell and saw no response, she told her dad, “Something feels off. Mrs. Schmitt always has the best candy!” Curious, Mia checked the doorbell camera footage (录像) and saw Amy’s note. She realized her worry was true. Mia decided to do something for Jacob. After collecting candies from her first round of trick-or-treating, she begged her dad, “Can we go back and give my candy to Jacob?” Her father agreed, and soon, other kids joined in. By the end of the night, the Schmitts’ doorstep was covered with colorful candies — chocolates, gummies, and lollipops — left by kids who refused to take any for themselves. Amy was amazed when she saw the pile. “I couldn’t believe it. These kids didn’t even know Jacob well, but they cared so much,” she said. “Their parents must have taught them kindness.” The story quickly spread on social media, with many praising the community’s spirit. “It’s not just about candies — it’s about humanity,” one neighbor commented. For Jacob, who peeked (快速看) at the candies from his hospital bed, the act was the best Halloween gift ever. 4. Why was Jacob unable to enjoy Halloween as usual? A. His family hadn’t planned it. B. He had to care for his ill mother. C. A sickness landed him in hospital. D. The children didn’t visit his house. 5. How did Mia discover Jacob’s situation? A. She inferred it from a sign. B. Jacob’s mother phoned her. C. Neighbors described it to her. D. She came across an online post. 6. Which words can best describe Mia? A. Polite and determined. B. Far-sighted and gentle. C. Quick-eyed and caring. D. Helpful and responsible. 7. What lesson does the author want to tell through the text? A. Festivals improve relationships. B. Kids prefer holidays to daily life. C. Community events bring children joy. D. Goodness can light up others’ moments. C Many people now use devices to track their sleep. Annie, observing her sleep each morning with a smartwatch as countless others do, uses the data to see how well she rests and feels during the day. While sleep tracking is a fast-growing industry, with products like rings, headbands, and watches all promising better rest, experts warn we must understand their limitations. The best way to measure sleep is called polysomnography. In a sleep lab, many sensors record brain waves, eye movements, breathing, heart rate, and blood oxygen. This shows sleep stages, awakening, and the speed of falling asleep. Wearables do not measure brain waves. Instead, they estimate (评估) sleep from movement, heart rate, temperature, and oxygen levels. Because of this, their sleep/wake and sleep-stage results are not always correct. What your arms do may not match what your brain is doing. Another challenge is defining “good sleep.” Adults are advised to sleep 7-9 hours, but “sleep quality” is more complex (复杂的). It includes how continuous sleep is and how much time you spend in each stage. Also, how you feel can conflict with the data. Some people report poor sleep, yet lab tests look normal. There is even a term, orthosomnia, for becoming too focused on perfect scores, which can make sleep worse. Still, trackers can help you learn what affects your rest. One person found evening pilates helped. Another saw that alcohol raised her sleeping heart rate by about 10%. Continuous, at-home data lets you see patterns over weeks, not just one lab night. Experts suggest using trackers to support healthy habits: regular sleep times, less caffeine late in the day, limited alcohol, daily exercise, and a cool, quiet bedroom. Some also watch heart rate or heart rate variability to notice early signs of illness and rest more. Finally, consumer trackers are not medical tools. Algorithms (算法) may miss problems in certain groups, and sleep changes with age. But if trackers start helpful conversations and lead to better habits, they can be a good thing. 8. What does the example of Annie suggest? A. Many people experience sleep difficulties. B. Tracking sleep is now a common practice. C. Sleep trackers can help people sleep better. D. Wearables are a source of needless anxiety. 9. How does the author mainly develop paragraph 2? A. By listing numbers. B. By describing a process. C. By giving examples. D. By making a comparison. 10. What does the underlined phrase “conflict with” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Differ from. B. Result in. C. depend on. D. Go beyond. 11. What is the purpose of the text? A. To prove the effectiveness of sleep trackers. B. To highlight the limitations of sleep trackers. C. To recommend the wise use of sleep trackers. D. To guide the choice of suitable sleep trackers. D Recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI) have led to significant breakthroughs in translation technologies. AI translation is useful in some situations. For example, helping teachers communicate with parents who speak a different language, or when travelling. Translation technology may even help protect endangered languages from disappearing by supporting online collections of literature. With AI-powered technology in these digital libraries, more people can appreciate these works. But while technology can translate messages, it misses an important part of human communication — the cultural nuances (细微差别) behind the words. So, while AI translation can bridge language gaps and make communication easier, it’s important to be clear about the benefits and challenges it presents. Relying only on technology to translate between languages will finally lead to misunderstandings and a less rich human experience. The new technology also comes with limitations. In 2019, workers at an immigration (移民) center in the United States used AI translation to deal with an asylum (庇护) case. The voice tool could not understand the applicant’s accent, and the person was kept there for six months without being able to explain clearly. In 2021, a police officer used Google Translate to ask a Spanish-speaking woman if he could search her car. The app chose a wrong word, which caused confusion. Learning additional languages also stands out as one of the best ways to improve ourselves, with benefits for brain health, social skills, cultural understanding, and career opportunities. A study in 2022 found that people who speak more than one language have quicker minds and may delay brain aging. It also showed that learning several languages helps people respect and understand each other better. While AI-powered translation technology has its uses, a great deal can be lost if we rely only on it to communicate. The nuances of languages, and what they say about different cultures, are difficult to communicate via translation tools. And the benefits of being bilingual (双语的) or multilingual — both personally and for the wider society — risk being lost if we don’t support second language learning. 12.

I was watering the flowers in my yard when I noticed a man standing near the Smiths’ house across the street. He walked slowly along the fence and kept looking at the windows. Sometimes he stopped and stared for a long time. Since the Smiths were not home his strange behavior made me feel uneasy. After watching him for several minutes I decided to walk over. “Excuse me,” I said carefully, “can I help you?” The man turned around quickly. He looked tired, and his clothes seemed old. “I used to live in this house,” he said in a low voice. “I sold it last year after my business failed. I didn’t come to cause trouble. I just wanted to look at it again.” His voice sounded honest, but I still felt unsure. He kept looking down at the ground, and his hands were shaking a little. I didn’t want anything dangerous to happen, so I stepped back and quietly called the police. A few minutes later, a police car arrived. The officers asked him several questions. Even though he repeated the same story, the officers still looked suspicious (怀疑的). One of them said, “There were break-ins in this area recently. We need to take you to the station and ask more questions.” The man looked helpless but did not resist (反抗). The police took him away. The street became quiet. I stood there wondering if I had made the right choice. About an hour later, Mr. and Mrs. Smith returned from work. As soon as I saw them, I went over and explained everything — the strange man, what he said, and how the police took him away. “We bought this house last year,” Mrs. Smith said. “The previous owner was a middle-aged man. He looked very upset when we moved in. He didn’t even want to walk around the house for the last time.” Mr. Smith nodded slowly. “Maybe the man you saw is the same person,” he said. “We can’t be sure, but we should check.” 注意：（1） 续写词数应为150个左右；（2） 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Then Mr. Smith drove me to the police station. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I stepped forward and said sorry to him. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
