B Invented in the Tang Dynasty and widely adopted after the Song Dynasty in Fujian, the watertight-bulkhead (水密舱壁) technology permits the construction of ocean-going ships with watertight compartments (隔层). If one or two cabins are accidentally damaged at sea, water will not flood the other cabins and the ships will remain afloat. The experience and working methods of watertight-bulkhead technology are transmitted orally from master to apprentices. However, the need for Chinese junks (中国式帆船) has decreased sharply as wooden ships have been replaced by steel-hulled ships, and today only three masters can claim full command of this technology. Associated building costs have also increased owing to a shortage in raw materials. Therefore, the inheritance (继承) of this heritage is decreasing, and inheritors are forced to seek alternative employment. Zhang Guohui, a 77-year-old inheritor of the watertight-bulkhead techniques used to make Chinese junks, has been making ships for more than six decades. Coming from a poor family in a fishing town in East China’s Fujian Province, Zhang started to make a living at the age of 16 fishing on the open seas, which is where he developed a keen interest in constructing boats. As a fast learner, Zhang was later sent to shipyards in the cities of Quanzhou and Xiamen in Fujian Province, where he received training and became a master of traditional Chinese junks and gained fame because of his extremely skilled craftsmanship in the construction of these junks. In fear that the traditional skills would die someday Zhang started to restore old ships and make model junks for the museum with his 20 years of shipbuilding skills. “The restored ancient ships are the historical witnesses of Quanzhou as a maritime center of the East and Southeast Asia trade network,” said Zhang, adding that he finds the work meaningful since younger generations can learn from exhibitions of ancient ships that their ancestors had advanced shipbuilding technology at an early stage of development. “As long as I’m alive, I’ll keep passing on the heritage,” he said. 24. What function is expected of the watertight-bulkhead technology? A. To prevent ships from sinking. B. To reduce the weight of ships. C. To allow ships to sail faster. D. To help ships resist strong winds. 25. Which of the following is the purpose of paragraph 2? A. To prove the significance of steel-hulled ships.” B. To stress the complex process of building wooden ships. C. To present people’s efforts to pass down cultural heritages. D. To show difficulties of inheriting watertight-bulkhead technology. 26. What can we learn about Zhang Guohui from paragraph 3? A. He supports his family by fishing. B. He was born with a talent for shipbuilding. C. He has devoted himself to constructing boats. D. He has won many awards for restoring ancient ships. 27. What does Zhang Guohui convey in his words? A. Traditional culture should be innovated with the times. B. The ancient ship trade originated from Quanzhou in China. C. It is necessary for modern students to learn shipbuilding skills. D. It is worth passing on traditional skills from generation to generation. C Few marsupials (有袋哺乳动物) have gone from miraculous survival to the edge of extinction as quickly as the Kangaroo Island dunnart (狭足袋鼩). In 2019 and 2020, devastating fires burned nearly 10 million hectares of southeastern Australia. The flames threatened hundreds of species with extinction, but the Kangaroo Island dunnart — which already numbered less than 500 before the fires — seemed to be one that was beyond expectation in the aftermath. But now these rare creatures may be more at risk than ever, researchers say June 16 in Scientific Reports. The danger, as domestic as it sounds, is getting eaten by a cat. As of 2008, invasive wildcats had contributed to at least 13 percent of extinctions worldwide. That’s one reason why the government has been euthanizing (安乐死) wildcats on Kangaroo Island for years. The scientists who conducted the dunnart study knew all this — but when they studied the remains of wildcats euthanized in 2020, they were still surprised by what they saw: Seven out of 86 wildcats had recently dined on dunnart. “We were not expecting to find so many,” says Louis Lignereux, a field researcher at the University of Adelaide School of Animal and Veterinary Science. “It’s particularly bad news, ”he says, “if you think of what was in the wildcats as only a brief description of what they ate in the last 36 hours.” Taking that into account, those seven wildcats alone could have eaten enough to wipe out the Kangaroo Island dunnart within a few months, if they had survived—and there are hundreds of other wildcats on the island. A small habitat makes the dunnarts especially vulnerable. It’s like putting all your eggs in one basket, Lignereux says. Since the fires, the Kangaroo Island dunnart is thought to now live in an area about one-tenth of the size of Manhattan. “If something happened to this spot,” he says, “then the dunnart is gone forever.” 28. What can we infer about the Kangaroo Island dunnarts from the text? A. Their small habitat has rich species. B. They and wildcats killed each other. C. The wildcats led to the extinction of them. D. They were hardly influenced by the big fire. 29. How did the researchers find the real cause of the sharp reduction of dunnarts? A. By analyzing their habitat. B. By consulting the experts. C. By referring to precious data. D. By studying the remains of dead wildcats. 30 Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “vulnerable” in the last paragraph? A. hard to be fed B. sensitive to the environment C. at risk D. easy to survive 31. Which is the most suitable title for the text? A. Why do dunnarts possibly face extinction? B. Why do wildcats dine on the dunnarts? C. What environment do dunnarts favor? D. What measures should be taken to kill wildcats? D A team of AI researchers at Microsoft, working with colleagues from the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory(PNNL), has used AI to develop a battery that uses less lithium (锂). Lithium batteries have become the industry standard for electronic devices and electric vehicles and are expected to play a major role in the change to green power. But lithium is expensive, which has led multiple teams across the globe to look for alternatives. In this new effort, the research team looked for ways to reduce the amount of lithium used in batteries. This would normally take a long time because of the detailed approach required. To reduce the workload and the time needed to process millions of alternatives, the researchers turned to AI. Noting that AI applications are good at using massive amounts of data to learn how to do things, the researchers designed one that could study millions of materials that might be added to a lithium battery to replace some amount of the lithium and test the results for factors such as stability and how a battery using a given material would behave. Using this approach, the research team reduced the list of possible alternatives to just a few hundred possibilities. They then turned to materials scientists at PNNL for advice on how to reduce the possibilities even further. The scientists suggested adding more specific screening criteria and more testing rounds. After adopting that advice, the team arrived at a promising alternative and an approach that involved replacing approximately half of the lithium atoms in a battery with sodium (钠) atoms. After using the new approach to build a working battery, the researchers found it had lower conductivity (导电性) than needed — but they also believe that there is room for improvement. They plan to continue working on the approach and the process they used to find their solution, which they suggest could eventually solve other types of material processing problems. 32. Why did the research team want to develop a battery that uses less lithium? A. To reduce carbon emissions. B. To meet the industry standard. C. To decrease the cost of a battery. D. To generate electricity efficiently. 33. What do the underlined words “this approach” in paragraph 4 refer to? A. Using AI to find possible materials. B. Adding other materials to a battery. C. Developing an application to collect data. D. Replacing lithium in a battery with sodium. 34. How did the research team finally find a promising alternative? A. By seeking funding from PNNL. B. By asking experts for advice. C. By turning to Microsoft for help. D. By cooperating with other scientists. 35. What is the existing challenge with the new approach? A. It is less effective than expected. B. It costs too much time and money. C. It occupies too much room. D. It processes at a lower speed. 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。 Picture this: You’ve just arrived home from the grocery store and realized that you forgot to buy the main food you needed for dinner. You may feel upset and tired. And then, the voice in your head begins its comments: “It’s really stupid of me.” Or “Why am I always so careless?” ____36____ We’ve all been there — experiencing the inner dialogue that follows a mistake or a setback. ____37____ Negative self-talk is a normal part of being human. But if left unchecked, it can affect our mental health. This is why learning to examine and transform our inner voice is so crucial. Our inner voice is constantly broadcasting our thoughts, whether they’ re positive or negative. ____38____ In contrast, negative self-talk exposes us to self-doubts and fears. This can eventually harm our mental health, relationships, and confidence. ____39____ Research shows that people who engage in this kind of behavior often experience lower self-confidence, higher anxiety levels, and a reduced sense of overall well-being. In addition, self-criticism has been associated with higher stress levels and an increased risk of mental health issues, such as depression. The good news is that we can change our self-talk. The first step is becoming aware of the role our inner voice plays. Once we recognize its impact, we can use simple techniques to shift how we talk to ourselves. ____40____ Besides, using your name instead of “I” during inner dialogue can also create a more supportive, less critical voice. A. A lot of strategies are needed. B. Practicing constructive self-talk can be helpful. C. In fact, negative self-talk can take many forms. D. Positive self-talk can inspire and boost our confidence. E. At last, you may head back to the store with a heavy heart. F. The link between negative self-talk and mental health is well-established. G. This dialogue is the voice that criticizes us when things don’t go as planned. 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) When I was fourteen, my brother Barney and I set out to climb The Tooth with our uncle, Tom Campbell.

The research conducted by scientists from the Chinese Academy of Sciences ____57____ (publish) in Science Advances. At the end of the Permian Period (二叠纪), a terrible extinction wiped out over 80% of species on earth, ____58____ scientists have long believed was caused by volcanic eruptions in Siberia that led to widespread____59____ (harm) gases, wildfires, and acid rain. However, this new study challenges the idea by providing the first clear evidence ____60____ a stable land ecosystem persisted through the disaster. By examining plant fossils (化石) there, researchers found that only about 21% of local plant species disappeared — a much lower rate ____61____ (compare) with that in the ocean. The study also uncovered a continuous ____62____ (present) of thick plants before and after the extinction event. This stable plant life supported a rapid recovery of varied animals, allowing them to thrive (蓬勃发展) within just 75, 000 years, much faster than ____63____ (previous) thought. Scientists believe this ability to recover was due to the region’s stable climate, with good rainfall ____64____ (create) a livable environment. This discovery _____65_____ (highlight) how local conditions can protect ecosystems even in times of global disaster, offering lessons for modern conservation efforts. 第四部分 写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节(满分15分) 66. 假定你是李华，在刚刚过去的国庆旅游期间，深刻感受到人工智能为旅游业带来诸多便利。请给你的英国笔友 Peter写一封邮件，分享相关体验，内容包括： 1.便利之处； 2.表达感悟； 3.发出邀请。 注意： 1.写作词数应为80左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Dear Peter, How are you doing? ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 第二节(满分25分) 67. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 Oliver, a bright twelve-year-old with curly brown hair, lived in the lively town of Willow Creek. Every day after school, he would rush home to his favorite spot — a strong oak tree with a swing in the backyard to read. But today was different. He had a secret that made his heart race, but not in the good way. At school, during art class, Oliver accidentally spilled (泼洒) red paint on his friend Mia’s drawing. In panic, he lied, saying the paintbrush slipped. Deep down, he knew he had been careless, and the lie weighed heavily on him. Mia had been so excited about her drawing for the coming school art show. He worried he had ruined it. With a sigh, Oliver decided to take a walk to clear his mind. He wandered down the familiar path to Willow Creek Park. There, he saw Mr. Johnson, a retired headmaster. He had a kind smile that made Oliver feel at ease. “Hello, Oliver,” Mr. Johnson called, waving him over. “What brings you here on this fine day?” Oliver hesitated for a moment but then decided to share his burden. “I told a lie today,” he admitted everything to Mr. Johnson. “Honesty builds trust,” Mr. Johnson advised gently, “while lies create walls between friends.” Oliver listened attentively, worrying that truth might hurt Mia. “Sometimes the truth may hurt, but it also solves the problem and makes things better,” Mr. Johnson added thoughtfully. “If you’re honest with Mia, you can work together to fix the drawing. Remember, friendship grows strong with trust.” Oliver nodded, feeling a spark of hope. Maybe telling the truth wouldn’t be as scary as he thought. The next day at school, the air was filled with excitement as the art show drew closer. Colorful banners decorated the halls, and students hurried to set up their displays. 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。 Paragraph 1: Oliver approached Mia, who was carefully improving her painting. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: The day of the art show arrived. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 晋江侨声中学、南安侨光中学2025秋季高二年两校联考二英语试卷 (考试时间：120分钟 满分150分) 命题者：苏玉玲 钟慧珍 审核者：许丽远 注意事项： 1．答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2．回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其它答案。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 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。每段对话读两遍。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What happened to the man?

Obviously, the dinosaurs died out millions of years ago, but I am part of a team that searches for dinosaur bones all over the world. M: And you’ve found a new species in Mongolia? W: That’s right, in the Gobi Desert. The animal would have weighed about 260 kilos and stood on two legs. M: Is that to reach higher leaves in trees to eat? W: That’s likely part of it. And what separates it from similar species is that its front legs are different. M: In what way? Are they bigger? W: It has two fingers, while similar species have three. They would have lived all over Asia and North America as far back as 90 million years ago. M: Interesting. So, which region do your team plan to explore next for your research? 听下面一段独白，回答以下小题。【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 17. What do we know about Barnard’s star? A. It’s bigger than the Sun. B.

C. News reporters. 【答案】17. C 18. A 19. A 20. B 【解析】 【原文】Today, I want to talk about the nearest single star to our Sun. Barnard’s Star is about six light years away from Earth. Believed to be between seven and twelve billion years of age, Barnard’s Star is much older than the Sun, which has been around for four and a half billion years. It’s also a lot cooler and smaller. In fact, Barnard’s Star is only 19 percent of the Sun’s mass. As it isn’t very bright, it isn’t easy for scientists to see Barnard’s Star. There have been many theories about planets over the years, but nothing has been proven. A scientific team in South Africa reported evidence of a planet circling around Barnard’s Star. Another team confirmed this using the latest technology. Why is this important? I wanted to show you that our knowledge of the universe is only so much! We are discovering more and more every day!

If one or two cabins are accidentally damaged at sea, water will not flood the other cabins and the ships will remain afloat. The experience and working methods of watertight-bulkhead technology are transmitted orally from master to apprentices. However, the need for Chinese junks (中国式帆船) has decreased sharply as wooden ships have been replaced by steel-hulled ships, and today only three masters can claim full command of this technology. Associated building costs have also increased owing to a shortage in raw materials. Therefore, the inheritance (继承) of this heritage is decreasing, and inheritors are forced to seek alternative employment. Zhang Guohui, a 77-year-old inheritor of the watertight-bulkhead techniques used to make Chinese junks, has been making ships for more than six decades. Coming from a poor family in a fishing town in East China’s Fujian Province, Zhang started to make a living at the age of 16 fishing on the open seas, which is where he developed a keen interest in constructing boats. As a fast learner, Zhang was later sent to shipyards in the cities of Quanzhou and Xiamen in Fujian Province, where he received training and became a master of traditional Chinese junks and gained fame because of his extremely skilled craftsmanship in the construction of these junks. In fear that the traditional skills would die someday, Zhang started to restore old ships and make model junks for the museum with his 20 years of shipbuilding skills. “The restored ancient ships are the historical witnesses of Quanzhou as a maritime center of the East and Southeast Asia trade network,” said Zhang, adding that he finds the work meaningful since younger generations can learn from exhibitions of ancient ships that their ancestors had advanced shipbuilding technology at an early stage of development. “As long as I’m alive, I’ll keep passing on the heritage,” he said. 24. What function is expected of the watertight-bulkhead technology? A. To prevent ships from sinking. B. To reduce the weight of ships. C. To allow ships to sail faster. D. To help ships resist strong winds. 25. Which of the following is the purpose of paragraph 2? A. To prove the significance of steel-hulled ships.” B. To stress the complex process of building wooden ships. C. To present people’s efforts to pass down cultural heritages. D. To show difficulties of inheriting watertight-bulkhead technology. 26. What can we learn about Zhang Guohui from paragraph 3? A. He supports his family by fishing. B. He was born with a talent for shipbuilding. C. He has devoted himself to constructing boats. D. He has won many awards for restoring ancient ships. 27. What does Zhang Guohui convey in his words? A. Traditional culture should be innovated with the times. B. The ancient ship trade originated from Quanzhou in China. C. It is necessary for modern students to learn shipbuilding skills. D. It is worth passing on traditional skills from generation to generation. 【答案】24. A 25. D 26. C 27. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了发明于唐代，宋代以后在福建被广泛采用的水密舱壁技术，现在随着木船被钢铁船所取代，今天只有三位大师可以完全掌握这项技术，几近失传，这是宝贵的中国非物质文化遗产。并介绍了一位致力于该项技术推广与宣传的传承人——张国辉老人。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“If one or two cabins are accidentally damaged at sea, water will not flood the other cabins and the ships will remain a float. (如果一两个舱室在海上意外损坏，水不会淹没其他舱室，船只将保持漂浮)”可知，水密舱壁技术可以在船只部分受损的情况下，仍可以继续保持漂浮不下沉。故选A项。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段内容“The experience and working methods of watertight-bulkhead technology are transmitted orally from master to apprentices. However, the need for Chinese junks(中国式帆船) has decreased sharply as wooden ships have been replaced by steel-hulled ships, and today only three masters can claim full command of this technology. Associated building costs have also increased owing to a shortage in raw materials. Therefore, the inheritance(继承) of this heritage is decreasing, and inheritors are forced to seek alternative employment. (水密舱壁技术的经验和工作方法由师傅口头传授给徒弟。然而，随着木船被钢壳船所取代，对中国舢板的需求急剧减少，今天只有三位大师可以声称完全掌握这项技术。由于原材料短缺，相关的建筑费用也增加了。因此，这一遗产的继承性正在减少，继承者被迫寻找替代工作)”可知，本段在讲述当今时代传承这项技术的种种困难。故选D项。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段首“Zhang Guohui, a 77-year-old inheritor of the watertight-bulkhead techniques used to make Chinese junks, has been making ships for more than six decades. (继承了制造中国帆船的防水舱壁技术的77岁老人张国辉，已经有60多年的造船经验)”可知，张国辉老人一生都致力于造船事业。故选C项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“‘The restored ancient ships are the historical witnesses of Quanzhou as a maritime center of the East and Southeast Asia trade network,’ said Zhang, adding that he finds the work meaningful since younger generations can learn from exhibitions of ancient ships that their ancestors had advanced shipbuilding technology at an early stage of development. (张国辉说：‘这些被修复的古船是泉州作为东亚和东南亚贸易网络海上中心的历史见证。’他又补充说他认为这项工作很有意义，因为年轻一代可以从古船展览中了解到他们的祖先在早期发展阶段拥有先进的造船技术)”可知，老人说这些话表明他认为致力于代代传承这一传统技艺是有意义的，是值得的。故选D项。 C Few marsupials (有袋哺乳动物) have gone from miraculous survival to the edge of extinction as quickly as the Kangaroo Island dunnart (狭足袋鼩). In 2019 and 2020, devastating fires burned nearly 10 million hectares of southeastern Australia. The flames threatened hundreds of species with extinction, but the Kangaroo Island dunnart — which already numbered less than 500 before the fires — seemed to be one that was beyond expectation in the aftermath. But now these rare creatures may be more at risk than ever, researchers say June 16 in Scientific Reports. The danger, as domestic as it sounds, is getting eaten by a cat. As of 2008, invasive wildcats had contributed to at least 13 percent of extinctions worldwide. That’s one reason why the government has been euthanizing (安乐死) wildcats on Kangaroo Island for years. The scientists who conducted the dunnart study knew all this — but when they studied the remains of wildcats euthanized in 2020, they were still surprised by what they saw: Seven out of 86 wildcats had recently dined on dunnart. “We were not expecting to find so many,” says Louis Lignereux, a field researcher at the University of Adelaide School of Animal and Veterinary Science. “It’s particularly bad news, ”he says, “if you think of what was in the wildcats as only a brief description of what they ate in the last 36 hours.” Taking that into account, those seven wildcats alone could have eaten enough to wipe out the Kangaroo Island dunnart within a few months, if they had survived—and there are hundreds of other wildcats on the island. A small habitat makes the dunnarts especially vulnerable. It’s like putting all your eggs in one basket, Lignereux says. Since the fires, the Kangaroo Island dunnart is thought to now live in an area about one-tenth of the size of Manhattan. “If something happened to this spot,” he says, “then the dunnart is gone forever.” 28. What can we infer about the Kangaroo Island dunnarts from the text? A. Their small habitat has rich species. B. They and wildcats killed each other. C. The wildcats led to the extinction of them. D. They were hardly influenced by the big fire. 29. How did the researchers find the real cause of the sharp reduction of dunnarts? A. By analyzing their habitat. B. By consulting the experts. C. By referring to precious data. D. By studying the remains of dead wildcats. 30. Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “vulnerable” in the last paragraph? A. hard to be fed B. sensitive to the environment C. at risk D. easy to survive 31. Which is the most suitable title for the text? A. Why do dunnarts possibly face extinction? B. Why do wildcats dine on the dunnarts? C. What environment do dunnarts favor? D. What measures should be taken to kill wildcats? 【答案】28. D 29. D 30. C 31. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了澳大利亚的狭足袋鼩面临灭绝的危险，介绍了相关研究和发现。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“In 2019 and 2020, devastating fires burned nearly 10 million hectares of southeastern Australia. The flames threatened hundreds of species with extinction, but the Kangaroo Island dunnart — which already numbered less than 500 before the fires — seemed to be one that was beyond expectation in the aftermath.( 2019年和2020年，毁灭性的大火烧毁了澳大利亚东南部的近1000万公顷土地。火焰威胁着数百个物种的灭绝，但袋鼠岛的狭足袋鼩——在火灾发生前数量已经不足500只——在火灾发生后似乎是一个超出预期的物种)”可推知，袋鼠岛的狭足袋鼩几乎没有受到大火的影响。故选D。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The scientists who conducted the dunnart study knew all this — but when they studied the remains of wildcats euthanized in 2020, they were still surprised by what they saw: Seven out of 86 wildcats had recently dined on dunnart.(进行狭足袋鼩研究的科学家们知道这一切，但当他们研究2020年被安乐死的野猫遗骸时，他们仍然对所看到的情况感到惊讶：86只野猫中有7只最近吃了狭足袋鼩)”可知，研究人员通过研究死去野猫的遗骸发现狭足袋鼩急剧减少的真正原因。故选D。 【30题详解】 词句猜测题。根据画线词后文“It’s like putting all your eggs in one basket”可知，狭小的栖息地就像把所有的鸡蛋放在一个篮子里，说明狭小的栖息地狭足袋鼩处于危险中。故画线词意思是“处于危险中”。故选C。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Few marsupials (有袋哺乳动物) have gone from miraculous survival to the edge of extinction as quickly as the Kangaroo Island dunnart (狭足袋鼩).(很少有有袋类动物像袋鼠岛狭足袋鼩一样，从奇迹般的生存到灭绝的边缘)”结合文章主要说明了澳大利亚的狭足袋鼩面临灭绝的危险，介绍了相关研究和发现。可知，A选项“为什么狭足袋鼩可能面临灭绝？”最符合文章标题。故选A。 D A team of AI researchers at Microsoft, working with colleagues from the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory(PNNL), has used AI to develop a battery that uses less lithium (锂). Lithium batteries have become the industry standard for electronic devices and electric vehicles and are expected to play a major role in the change to green power. But lithium is expensive, which has led multiple teams across the globe to look for alternatives. In this new effort, the research team looked for ways to reduce the amount of lithium used in batteries. This would normally take a long time because of the detailed approach required. To reduce the workload and the time needed to process millions of alternatives, the researchers turned to AI. Noting that AI applications are good at using massive amounts of data to learn how to do things, the researchers designed one that could study millions of materials that might be added to a lithium battery to replace some amount of the lithium and test the results for factors such as stability and how a battery using a given material would behave. Using this approach, the research team reduced the list of possible alternatives to just a few hundred possibilities. They then turned to materials scientists at PNNL for advice on how to reduce the possibilities even further. The scientists suggested adding more specific screening criteria and more testing rounds. After adopting that advice, the team arrived at a promising alternative and an approach that involved replacing approximately half of the lithium atoms in a battery with sodium (钠) atoms. After using the new approach to build a working battery, the researchers found it had lower conductivity (导电性) than needed — but they also believe that there is room for improvement. They plan to continue working on the approach and the process they used to find their solution, which they suggest could eventually solve other types of material processing problems. 32. Why did the research team want to develop a battery that uses less lithium? A. To reduce carbon emissions. B. To meet the industry standard. C. To decrease the cost of a battery. D. To generate electricity efficiently. 33. What do the underlined words “this approach” in paragraph 4 refer to? A. Using AI to find possible materials. B. Adding other materials to a battery. C. Developing an application to collect data. D. Replacing lithium in a battery with sodium. 34. How did the research team finally find a promising alternative? A. By seeking funding from PNNL. B. By asking experts for advice. C. By turning to Microsoft for help. D. By cooperating with other scientists. 35. What is the existing challenge with the new approach? A. It is less effective than expected. B. It costs too much time and money. C. It occupies too much room. D. It processes at a lower speed. 【答案】32. C 33. A 34. B 35. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了微软的一组人工智能研究人员与太平洋西北国家实验室（PNNL）的同事合作，利用人工智能开发了一种使用更少锂的电池。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Lithium batteries have become the industry standard for electronic devices and electric vehicles and are expected to play a major role in the change to green power.

After adopting that advice, the team arrived at a promising alternative and an approach that involved replacing approximately half of the lithium atoms in a battery with sodium (钠) atoms.(科学家们建议增加更具体的筛选标准和更多的测试轮次。在采纳了这个建议之后，研究小组得出了一个有希望的替代方案，即用钠原子取代电池中大约一半的锂原子)”可知，研究小组通过向专家征求意见最终找到一种有希望的替代方案。故选B项。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“After using the new approach to build a working battery, the researchers found it had lower conductivity (导电性) than needed — but they also believe that there is room for improvement.(在使用这种新方法制造出可工作的电池后，研究人员发现它的电导率比所需的要低——但他们也相信还有改进的空间)”可知，新方法存在的挑战是效果不如预期。故选A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。 Picture this: You’ve just arrived home from the grocery store and realized that you forgot to buy the main food you needed for dinner. You may feel upset and tired. And then, the voice in your head begins its comments: “It’s really stupid of me.” Or “Why am I always so careless?” ____36____ We’ve all been there — experiencing the inner dialogue that follows a mistake or a setback. ____37____ Negative self-talk is a normal part of being human. But if left unchecked, it can affect our mental health. This is why learning to examine and transform our inner voice is so crucial. Our inner voice is constantly broadcasting our thoughts, whether they’ re positive or negative. ____38____ In contrast, negative self-talk exposes us to self-doubts and fears. This can eventually harm our mental health, relationships, and confidence. ____39____ Research shows that people who engage in this kind of behavior often experience lower self-confidence, higher anxiety levels, and a reduced sense of overall well-being. In addition, self-criticism has been associated with higher stress levels and an increased risk of mental health issues, such as depression. The good news is that we can change our self-talk. The first step is becoming aware of the role our inner voice plays. Once we recognize its impact, we can use simple techniques to shift how we talk to ourselves. ____40____ Besides, using your name instead of “I” during inner dialogue can also create a more supportive, less critical voice. A. A lot of strategies are needed. B. Practicing constructive self-talk can be helpful. C. In fact, negative self-talk can take many forms. D. Positive self-talk can inspire and boost our confidence. E. At last, you may head back to the store with a heavy heart. F. The link between negative self-talk and mental health is well-established. G. This dialogue is the voice that criticizes us when things don’t go as planned. 【答案】36. E 37. G 38. D 39. F 40. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了如何改变负面自我对话。 【36题详解】 根据上文“You’ve just arrived home from the grocery store and realized that you forgot to buy the main food you needed for dinner.

The research conducted by scientists from the Chinese Academy of Sciences ____57____ (publish) in Science Advances. At the end of the Permian Period (二叠纪), a terrible extinction wiped out over 80% of species on earth, ____58____ scientists have long believed was caused by volcanic eruptions in Siberia that led to widespread____59____ (harm) gases, wildfires, and acid rain.

The study also uncovered a continuous ____62____ (present) of thick plants before and after the extinction event. This stable plant life supported a rapid recovery of varied animals, allowing them to thrive (蓬勃发展) within just 75, 000 years, much faster than ____63____ (previous) thought.

I can’t wait to share with you my amazing experience with my family during the National Day holiday, where AI brought so much convenience to travel. For example, when buying tickets for scenic spots, I used mobile payment directly, which saved me from the trouble of carrying cash or waiting in long lines. Also, face recognition technology allowed us to enter attractions quickly, saving us a lot of time and trouble. It was super efficient! These AI applications made my trip much smoother and more enjoyable. I really felt how technology is changing our lives for the better, making travel easier and more fun. I sincerely invite you to come to China and experience this convenient travel with AI by yourself. I’m sure you’ll love it! Looking forward to your reply.（135） Yours, Li Hua Dear Peter, How are you doing? Just as planned, my family went on a week-long tour during the National Day holiday. Here I’d like to share with you what we experienced. When traveling, we were amazed at the changes and convenience brought by AI. First of all, wherever and whenever we went, we could use the mobile payment, including buying admission tickets. More interestingly, we no longer had to get into tourist attractions with the ID card. We could do it through a face recognition app now, which really saved time so that we didn’t have to wait in a queue. What an amazing experience I do hope you can come to China and experience all of this when you have spare time.

Every day after school, he would rush home to his favorite spot — a strong oak tree with a swing in the backyard to read. But today was different. He had a secret that made his heart race, but not in the good way. At school, during art class, Oliver accidentally spilled (泼洒) red paint on his friend Mia’s drawing. In panic, he lied, saying the paintbrush slipped. Deep down, he knew he had been careless, and the lie weighed heavily on him. Mia had been so excited about her drawing for the coming school art show. He worried he had ruined it. With a sigh, Oliver decided to take a walk to clear his mind. He wandered down the familiar path to Willow Creek Park. There, he saw Mr. Johnson, a retired headmaster. He had a kind smile that made Oliver feel at ease. “Hello, Oliver,” Mr. Johnson called, waving him over. “What brings you here on this fine day?” Oliver hesitated for a moment but then decided to share his burden. “I told a lie today,” he admitted everything to Mr. Johnson. “Honesty builds trust,” Mr. Johnson advised gently, “while lies create walls between friends.” Oliver listened attentively, worrying that truth might hurt Mia. “Sometimes the truth may hurt, but it also solves the problem and makes things better,” Mr. Johnson added thoughtfully. “If you’re honest with Mia, you can work together to fix the drawing. Remember, friendship grows strong with trust.” Oliver nodded, feeling a spark of hope. Maybe telling the truth wouldn’t be as scary as he thought. The next day at school, the air was filled with excitement as the art show drew closer. Colorful banners decorated the halls, and students hurried to set up their displays. 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。 Paragraph 1: Oliver approached Mia, who was carefully improving her painting. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: The day of the art show arrived. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Paragraph 1: Oliver approached Mia, who was carefully improving her painting. Oliver took a deep breath and admitted his lie about the paint spill. For a moment, Mia’s expression was readable, making Oliver’s stomach twist with anxiety. But then her face softened, and she simply nodded, accepting his apology. “Let’s fix it together,” Mia grinned. With a shared look of determination, they got to work. Transforming the red spots into blooming flowers, they added green leaves and a vivid blue sky. Their silent teamwork was efficient, turning the ruined drawing into a vibrant garden scene. Paragraph 2: The day of the art show arrived. Oliver and Mia stood nervously beside their artwork, palms sweating. As people began to gather around their piece, whispers of praise filled the air. Mr. Johnson, invited as a guest, gave them an approving thumbs-up. Oliver felt a sense of relief and pride wash over him. Not only did honesty save his friendship but also led to a beautiful creation. At that moment, Oliver knew that as long as he embraced honesty and nurtured the friendships he cherished, every day would be an adventure filled with color, joy, and the true essence of life. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了奥利弗不小心将红色颜料泼洒在朋友米娅的画作上，因害怕而撒谎，内心备受煎熬，后在公园偶遇退休校长Mr. Johnson，在Mr. Johnson的鼓励下，奥利弗决定向米娅坦白。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“奥利弗走近米娅，她正在仔细地修改她的画。”可知，第一段可描写奥利弗向米娅坦白并道歉，两人一起修复画作的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“艺术展的日子到了。”可知，第二段可描写艺术展上，他们的画作受到好评，奥利弗意识到诚实和友谊的重要性。 2. 续写线索：坦白道歉——接受道歉——一起修复画作——艺术展到来——画作受到好评——意识到诚实和友谊的重要性 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①承认：admit/confess ②修理：fix/repair ③促成、导致：lead to/contribute to 情绪类 ①焦虑：anxiety/nervousness ②放松：relief/ease/relaxation 【点睛】【高分句型1】Oliver and Mia stood nervously beside their artwork, palms sweating.

Barnard star is about six late years away from earth, believed to be between seven and twelve billion years of age. Barnard star is much older than the sun, which has been around for four and a half billion years. It's also a lot cooler and smaller. In fact, barnard star is only nineteen percent of the sun's mass. As IT isn't very bright, IT isn't easy for scientists to see barnard star. There have been many theories about planets over the years, but nothing has been proven. A scientific team in south africa reported evidence of a planet circling around barnard star. Another team confirmed this using the latest technology. Why is this important?
