On October 24, 2025, he released his fourth studio album (专辑) Son of Spergy — a work that marks a key career turn. Before this, Caesar had already gained recognition with his 2023 album Never Enough, which reached No. 2 on Billboard’s Top R&B albums Chart. However, Son of Spergy went beyond this achievement, marking Caesar’s first No. 1 on any Billboard chart. This success is a testament to his growth as an artist, showing his music’s emotional power. Centered on mending ties with his father and exploring spirituality, the album’s title honors Caesar’s father, Norwill Simmons, a pastor and gospel singer, who goes by the nickname “Spergy”. Caesar once shared that Spergy has long influenced his life, and this album is rooted in their journey toward “reconciliation (和解)” — a theme that shines through in every part of the work. There are 12 tracks in the album that combine soft melodies, heartfelt lyrics, and unique audio layers, which together create the rich and emotional sound of the music. Tracks tell Caesar’s story: “Have A Baby (With Me)” talks of renewal, when he sings: “It’s too late for our dreams. We can make a new dream.” “Baby Blue”, with his father, mixes R&B and gospel, ending with Spergy’s words. He continues singing about choosing the people to be with in the future in “Who Knows”. In “Moon”, Caesar raises questions of the soul, “Who’s gonna be my Jesus?” The album ends with “Sins of Father” (with Bon Iver), a piano-driven track where Caesar forgives his father. The final line — “Turn around. Oh, child of mine” — doubles as a nod to his bond with God and healed relationship with Spergy. For Caesar, music shares vulnerability. Through Son of Spergy, he confirms his place as a top artist and invites listeners to think about family and spirituality. 4. How did the author support the idea that the album Son of Spergy marked a key career turn? A. By analyzing reasons. B. By grouping data. C. By making a comparison. D. By giving definitions. 5. What can we learn about Caesar’s father? A. He first sought reconciliation. B. He is an R&B singer and pastor. C. He has influenced the new album. D. He named the album after his nickname. 6. Which track reflects the album’s spiritual exploration? A. Moon. B. Baby Blue. C. Who Knows. D. Have A Baby (With Me). 7. What is Caesar’s expectation for the album? A. To top the billboard charts. B. To show his father’s musical talent. C. To share his reconciliation with Spergy. D. To inspire reflection on family and spirituality. C Born between the mid-1990s and early 2010s, Gen Z is often referred to as “digital (数码的) natives”. Therefore, it may come as a surprise that Gen Z is turning away from screens and heading outdoors. From forest bathing to camping trips, more young adults are embracing nature as part of their lives. Digital tiredness is driving change. Gen Z spends more time online than any other generation, with daily screen time averaging 6-9 hours. According to a recent survey by Pew Research Centre, over 60% of Gen Z respondents reported feeling stressed out by the pressures of staying digitally connected. Therefore, nature offers an escape. For Gen Z, being outdoors isn’t just leisure, it’s a form of essential self-care. Surprisingly, the very platforms driving digital tiredness are now fueling nature engagement. Social media is not just part of the problem but it’s also part of the solution. Popular tags such as #Hiking, #IceBathing, #RunningClubs, and #VanLife have received billions of views online. Health and lifestyle influencers share experiences of these activities, transforming the image of nature as desirable and reachable. Although access to nature is still limited by safety concerns, cost, and urban density, Gen Z is adapting as best as they can. From sharing equipment to joining outdoor clubs, they’re finding creative ways to regain access to public spaces. Reconnecting with nature is also driven by environmental values. From ecotourism to zero-waste hiking, Gen Z spends outdoor time with purpose. Gen Z is reshaping global movements, using social media to spread ideas of climate action and redefine sustainable living. This generation is embracing outdoor experiences that are low-cost, low-tech, and deeply fulfilling. Among all these activities, run clubs and social fitness events have taken off in popularity. With a growing number of Gen Z passionate about spending time outdoors, it’s evident that many are turning to nature to restore balance, foster connection, and contribute to a healthier world. 8. What do the numbers in paragraph 2 show? A. Gen Z’s digital overload. B. Gen Z’s preference for screens. C. The necessity of digital connection. D. The phenomenon of online addiction. 9. Which best describes social media’s role for Gen Z? A. Two-sided. B. Up-to-date. C. Problem-causing. D. Space-saving. 10. What can be inferred from paragraph 4? A. Online platforms support ecotourism. B. Gen Z has strong environmental awareness. C. Embracing outdoor activities is challenging. D. Social fitness events require shared equipment. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. From Online to Outdoors: The Call of the Wild B. Beyond the Screen: The Truth of Outdoor Lives C Gen Z is replacing Screen Time for Green Time D. Social Media is Leading Gen Z to Outdoor Trips D Carl Behnke, a food safety expert at Purdue University, had long been curious about the actual cleanliness of his reusable water bottle. He put paper towels into the bottle and, upon pulling them out, was shocked to see how dirty they turned out to be. This inspired him to design a study. Behnke and colleagues stopped passers-by along a road at Purdue and asked if they would be happy to lend their water bottles to them as part of their research — to see how clean they were. “One thing that stood out from the project was the number of people who didn’t want to know the results,” recalls Behnke. “Basically, they knew that their cleaning habits were poor to non-existent — something the data later suggested, with some even rarely thinking about cleaning their bottles.” Research shows that reusable water bottles can carry millions of bacteria. A study found that water in bottles used by adults went from about 75,000 bacteria (细菌) per milliliter in the morning to over 1-2 million by the end of the day. Contamination often comes from the drinker’s hands, mouth, and the outside of the bottle. Those who don’t wash their hands regularly may introduce harmful germs like E. coli into their bottles. While most bacteria are harmless, they can put some people at risk, especially those with poor health. Besides, drinks that contain sugar can feed bacteria, promoting growth and making the situation worse. Although serious illnesses from reusable bottles are rare, it’s still important to maintain good hygiene (卫生). To reduce bacterial growth, it’s recommended to clean your water bottle regularly. Behnke’s research indicated that participants who used brushes or dishwashers had the lowest bacteria counts. Cleaning should involve hot water and soap, letting the bottle sit for about ten minutes before washing thoroughly. It’s essential to let the bottle air-dry to prevent wetness buildup, which encourages bacteria. And proper handwashing before touching your clean bottle can also help reduce contamination. 12. What can be inferred about the people in the study according to paragraph 2? A. They actively helped with the study. B. They thought the study was necessary. C. They were confident about the study results. D. They were clear they didn’t take good care of their bottles. 13. What does the underlined word “Contamination” in paragraph 3 mean? A. dirt. B. Pollution. C. Damage. D. Sickness. 14. What’s a recommended way to reduce bacteria growth? A. Wiping with clean dry towels. B. Washing hands regularly with soap. C. Using brushes with hot soapy water. D. Washing for about ten minutes each time. 15. What can be the best title of the text? A. Are You Using the Right Water Bottle? B. Does Your Water Bottle Make You Sick? C. Are You Cleaning Your Water Bottle Enough? D. Should You Stop Using Reusable Water Bottle? E Weather experts say extreme cold in many parts of the United States this winter has been driven by a polar vortex (涡旋). But what is this weather system and how does it work? The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) defines a polar vortex as a set of powerful westerly winds — not a single storm, but a steady atmospheric pattern, which usually takes shape each year in the Arctic stratosphere, a layer 16 to 48 kilometers above the surface of the northernmost point on Earth, and remains active mainly during the cold winter period. At times, the polar vortex weakens, making cold air masses escape and move south, while pushing warmer air north. This winter, several such events have hit the U.S. and Europe, as Arctic weather forces combined to drive cold air southward. Windchill readings — temperature readings that take into consideration the effects of wind — fell to minus 51 degrees Celsius in the U.S. Midwest, colder than actual air temperatures. The U.S. National Weather Service (NWS) warned of possible dangers such as frostbite and hypothermia for unprotected skin, as well as frozen and burst home water pipes due to prolonged cold, adding that most states would face low windchill temperatures, with exceptions including those with milder climates like Hawaii, California and Florida. The midwestern region, covering states such as Kansas, Nebraska and Missouri, was expected to be hit the hardest. NOAA notes the polar vortex surrounds not just the Arctic but both of Earth’s poles, strengthening in winter and weakening in summer. About once a year, it weakens further, shifting off the pole or breaking apart, which pushes surface cold air south. NOAA’s models predict low temperatures for states like Oklahoma, Colorado, Illinois and Iowa, as well as Wyoming, Montana and the Dakotas. Some storms may also bring heavy snow or flooding. 16. Which of the following is NOAA’s feature of the polar vortex according to NOAA’s definition? A. Strong B. Systemic C. Regular D. Destructive 17. Why are windchill readings mentioned in the passage? A. To explain how Arctic weather forces work. B. To stress the seriousness of the extreme cold. C. To compare temperatures in different U.S. states. D To show the actual air temperature in the Midwest. 18. What can be learned about the U.S. states affected by low windchill? A. Hawaii will face slight windchill due to its location. B. Midwest states are more easily affected by extreme cold. C. California is likely to experience the coldest temperatures. D. Florida’s climate makes it impossible to have low temperatures. 19. What will the author most probably discuss next? A. The history of polar vortex events in Europe. B. Why California and Florida are less affected by cold. C. NOAA’s plans to improve weather prediction models. D. How to protect oneself from the polar vortex’s harmful effect. 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。 A paid internship (实习) is a job often in your chosen field of work that offers a salary and is combined with training in your field.

On October 24, 2025, he released his fourth studio album (专辑) Son of Spergy — a work that marks a key career turn. Before this, Caesar had already gained recognition with his 2023 album Never Enough, which reached No. 2 on Billboard’s Top R&B albums Chart. However, Son of Spergy went beyond this achievement, marking Caesar’s first No. 1 on any Billboard chart. This success is a testament to his growth as an artist, showing his music’s emotional power. Centered on mending ties with his father and exploring spirituality, the album’s title honors Caesar’s father, Norwill Simmons, a pastor and gospel singer, who goes by the nickname “Spergy”. Caesar once shared that Spergy has long influenced his life, and this album is rooted in their journey toward “reconciliation (和解)” — a theme that shines through in every part of the work. There are 12 tracks in the album that combine soft melodies, heartfelt lyrics, and unique audio layers, which together create the rich and emotional sound of the music. Tracks tell Caesar’s story: “Have A Baby (With Me)” talks of renewal, when he sings: “It’s too late for our dreams. We can make a new dream.” “Baby Blue”, with his father, mixes R&B and gospel, ending with Spergy’s words. He continues singing about choosing the people to be with in the future in “Who Knows”. In “Moon”, Caesar raises questions of the soul, “Who’s gonna be my Jesus?” The album ends with “Sins of Father” (with Bon Iver), a piano-driven track where Caesar forgives his father. The final line — “Turn around. Oh, child of mine” — doubles as a nod to his bond with God and healed relationship with Spergy. For Caesar, music shares vulnerability. Through Son of Spergy, he confirms his place as a top artist and invites listeners to think about family and spirituality. 4. How did the author support the idea that the album Son of Spergy marked a key career turn? A. By analyzing reasons. B. By grouping data. C. By making a comparison. D. By giving definitions. 5. What can we learn about Caesar’s father? A. He first sought reconciliation. B. He is an R&B singer and pastor. C. He has influenced the new album. D. He named the album after his nickname. 6. Which track reflects the album’s spiritual exploration? A. Moon. B. Baby Blue. C. Who Knows. D. Have A Baby (With Me). 7. What is Caesar’s expectation for the album? A. To top the billboard charts. B. To show his father’s musical talent. C. To share his reconciliation with Spergy. D. To inspire reflection on family and spirituality. 【答案】4. C 5. C 6. A 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了R&B歌手Daniel Caesar的新专辑《Son of Spergy》及其意义。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Before this, Caesar had already gained recognition with his 2023 album Never Enough, which reached No. 2 on Billboard’s Top R&B albums Chart. However, Son of Spergy went beyond this achievement, marking Caesar’s first No. 1 on any Billboard chart.(在此之前，Caesar凭借2023年的专辑《Never Enough》已经获得了认可，该专辑在公告牌顶级R&B专辑排行榜上排名第二。然而，《Son of Spergy》超越了这一成就，标志着Caesar首次在公告牌任何排行榜上排名第一。)”可知，作者通过将《Son of Spergy》与Caesar之前的专辑《Never Enough》在公告牌排行榜上的排名进行比较，来支持《Son of Spergy》标志着Caesar职业生涯关键转折点的观点。故选C。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Centered on mending ties with his father and exploring spirituality, the album’s title honors Caesar’s father, Norwill Simmons, a pastor and gospel singer, who goes by the nickname “Spergy”.

Through Son of Spergy, he confirms his place as a top artist and invites listeners to think about family and spirituality.(对Caesar来说，音乐分享脆弱性。通过《Son of Spergy》，他确立了自己作为顶级艺术家的地位，并邀请听众思考家庭和精神世界。)”可知，Caesar对这张专辑的期望是激发人们对家庭和精神世界的反思。故选D。 C Born between the mid-1990s and early 2010s, Gen Z is often referred to as “digital (数码的) natives”. Therefore, it may come as a surprise that Gen Z is turning away from screens and heading outdoors. From forest bathing to camping trips, more young adults are embracing nature as part of their lives. Digital tiredness is driving change. Gen Z spends more time online than any other generation, with daily screen time averaging 6-9 hours. According to a recent survey by Pew Research Centre, over 60% of Gen Z respondents reported feeling stressed out by the pressures of staying digitally connected. Therefore, nature offers an escape. For Gen Z, being outdoors isn’t just leisure, it’s a form of essential self-care. Surprisingly, the very platforms driving digital tiredness are now fueling nature engagement. Social media is not just part of the problem but it’s also part of the solution. Popular tags such as #Hiking, #IceBathing, #RunningClubs, and #VanLife have received billions of views online. Health and lifestyle influencers share experiences of these activities, transforming the image of nature as desirable and reachable. Although access to nature is still limited by safety concerns, cost, and urban density, Gen Z is adapting as best as they can. From sharing equipment to joining outdoor clubs, they’re finding creative ways to regain access to public spaces. Reconnecting with nature is also driven by environmental values. From ecotourism to zero-waste hiking, Gen Z spends outdoor time with purpose. Gen Z is reshaping global movements, using social media to spread ideas of climate action and redefine sustainable living. This generation is embracing outdoor experiences that are low-cost, low-tech, and deeply fulfilling. Among all these activities, run clubs and social fitness events have taken off in popularity. With a growing number of Gen Z passionate about spending time outdoors, it’s evident that many are turning to nature to restore balance, foster connection, and contribute to a healthier world. 8. What do the numbers in paragraph 2 show? A. Gen Z’s digital overload. B. Gen Z’s preference for screens. C. The necessity of digital connection. D. The phenomenon of online addiction. 9.

From ecotourism to zero-waste hiking, Gen Z spends outdoor time with purpose. Gen Z is reshaping global movements, using social media to spread ideas of climate action and redefine sustainable living. (与自然重新建立联系，同样是由环保价值观驱动的。从生态旅游到零废弃徒步旅行，Z世代的户外活动都带有明确的目的性。Z世代正在重塑全球环保运动，利用社交媒体传播气候行动理念，重新定义可持续生活方式。)”可知，Z世代具备强烈的环保意识。故选B项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中的“Born between the mid-1990s and early 2010s, Gen Z is often referred to as “digital (数码的) natives”. Therefore, it may come as a surprise that Gen Z is turning away from screens and heading outdoors. (出生于20世纪90年代中期至21世纪10年代初的Z世代常被称为“数字原住民”。因此，Z世代正远离屏幕、走向户外的现象可能会令人感到意外。)”可知，全文核心是Z世代减少屏幕使用时间，增加户外活动时间，因此“Z世代正用绿色时光取代屏幕时间”概括了文章主题，最适合作为文章标题。故选C项。 D Carl Behnke, a food safety expert at Purdue University, had long been curious about the actual cleanliness of his reusable water bottle. He put paper towels into the bottle and, upon pulling them out, was shocked to see how dirty they turned out to be. This inspired him to design a study. Behnke and colleagues stopped passers-by along a road at Purdue and asked if they would be happy to lend their water bottles to them as part of their research — to see how clean they were. “One thing that stood out from the project was the number of people who didn’t want to know the results,” recalls Behnke. “Basically, they knew that their cleaning habits were poor to non-existent — something the data later suggested, with some even rarely thinking about cleaning their bottles.” Research shows that reusable water bottles can carry millions of bacteria. A study found that water in bottles used by adults went from about 75,000 bacteria (细菌) per milliliter in the morning to over 1-2 million by the end of the day. Contamination often comes from the drinker’s hands, mouth, and the outside of the bottle. Those who don’t wash their hands regularly may introduce harmful germs like E. coli into their bottles. While most bacteria are harmless, they can put some people at risk, especially those with poor health. Besides, drinks that contain sugar can feed bacteria, promoting growth and making the situation worse. Although serious illnesses from reusable bottles are rare, it’s still important to maintain good hygiene (卫生). To reduce bacterial growth, it’s recommended to clean your water bottle regularly. Behnke’s research indicated that participants who used brushes or dishwashers had the lowest bacteria counts. Cleaning should involve hot water and soap, letting the bottle sit for about ten minutes before washing thoroughly. It’s essential to let the bottle air-dry to prevent wetness buildup, which encourages bacteria. And proper handwashing before touching your clean bottle can also help reduce contamination. 12. What can be inferred about the people in the study according to paragraph 2? A. They actively helped with the study. B. They thought the study was necessary. C. They were confident about the study results. D. They were clear they didn’t take good care of their bottles. 13. What does the underlined word “Contamination” in paragraph 3 mean? A. dirt. B. Pollution. C. Damage. D. Sickness. 14. What’s a recommended way to reduce bacteria growth? A. Wiping with clean dry towels. B. Washing hands regularly with soap. C. Using brushes with hot soapy water. D. Washing for about ten minutes each time. 15. What can be the best title of the text? A. Are You Using the Right Water Bottle? B. Does Your Water Bottle Make You Sick? C. Are You Cleaning Your Water Bottle Enough? D. Should You Stop Using Reusable Water Bottle? 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. C 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍可重复使用水瓶的卫生问题及对应的清洁建议。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Basically, they knew that their cleaning habits were poor to non-existent — something the data later suggested, with some even rarely thinking about cleaning their bottles. (基本上，他们知道自己的清洁习惯很差，甚至根本没有清洁习惯 —— 这一点后来得到了数据的证实，有些人甚至很少考虑清洗自己的水瓶)”可知，这些人清楚自己没有好好清洁水瓶，所以才不想知道研究结果。故选D项。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中的“Contamination often comes from the drinker’s hands, mouth, and the outside of the bottle. Those who don’t wash their hands regularly may introduce harmful germs like E. coli into their bottles. (Contamination通常来自饮用者的手、嘴巴以及水瓶的外部。那些不经常洗手的人可能会将大肠杆菌等有害细菌带入瓶中)”可知，该词指的是水瓶被细菌等弄脏的状态，由此猜测划线词意为“污染”，与Pollution含义相近。故选B项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“Behnke’s research indicated that participants who used brushes or dishwashers had the lowest bacteria counts. Cleaning should involve hot water and soap, letting the bottle sit for about ten minutes before washing thoroughly. (Behnke的研究表明，使用刷子或洗碗机的参与者，其水瓶的细菌数量最低。清洗时应使用热水和肥皂，先将水瓶放置约十分钟，再彻底洗净)”可知，推荐的减少细菌滋生的方法是用刷子配合热水和肥皂清洗水瓶。故选C项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，尤其是第一段引出的水瓶清洁度研究、第三段说明的水瓶细菌污染问题以及第五段给出的清洁建议可知，文章核心是围绕人们是否充分清洁可重复使用水瓶展开。因此Are You Cleaning Your Water Bottle Enough? (你的喝水瓶洗得够勤吗？)最适合作为标题。故选C项。 E Weather experts say extreme cold in many parts of the United States this winter has been driven by a polar vortex (涡旋). But what is this weather system and how does it work? The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) defines a polar vortex as a set of powerful westerly winds — not a single storm, but a steady atmospheric pattern, which usually takes shape each year in the Arctic stratosphere, a layer 16 to 48 kilometers above the surface of the northernmost point on Earth, and remains active mainly during the cold winter period. At times, the polar vortex weakens, making cold air masses escape and move south, while pushing warmer air north. This winter, several such events have hit the U.S. and Europe, as Arctic weather forces combined to drive cold air southward. Windchill readings — temperature readings that take into consideration the effects of wind — fell to minus 51 degrees Celsius in the U.S. Midwest colder than actual air temperatures. The U.S. National Weather Service (NWS) warned of possible dangers such as frostbite and hypothermia for unprotected skin, as well as frozen and burst home water pipes due to prolonged cold, adding that most states would face low windchill temperatures, with exceptions including those with milder climates like Hawaii, California and Florida. The midwestern region, covering states such as Kansas, Nebraska and Missouri, was expected to be hit the hardest. NOAA notes the polar vortex surrounds not just the Arctic but both of Earth’s poles, strengthening in winter and weakening in summer. About once a year, it weakens further, shifting off the pole or breaking apart, which pushes surface cold air south. NOAA’s models predict low temperatures for states like Oklahoma, Colorado, Illinois and Iowa, as well as Wyoming, Montana and the Dakotas. Some storms may also bring heavy snow or flooding. 16. Which of the following is NOAA’s feature of the polar vortex according to NOAA’s definition? A. Strong B. Systemic C. Regular D. Destructive 17. Why are windchill readings mentioned in the passage? A. To explain how Arctic weather forces work. B. To stress the seriousness of the extreme cold. C. To compare temperatures in different U.S. states. D. To show the actual air temperature in the Midwest. 18. What can be learned about the U.S. states affected by low windchill? A. Hawaii will face slight windchill due to its location. B. Midwest states are more easily affected by extreme cold. C. California is likely to experience the coldest temperatures. D. Florida’s climate makes it impossible to have low temperatures. 19. What will the author most probably discuss next? A. The history of polar vortex events in Europe. B Why California and Florida are less affected by cold. C. NOAA’s plans to improve weather prediction models. D. How to protect oneself from the polar vortex’s harmful effect. 【答案】16. D 17. B 18. B 19. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍极涡这一气象系统的定义、运行机制，以及它引发美国冬季极端严寒天气的影响和相关预警。 【16题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) defines a polar vortex as a set of powerful westerly winds — not a single storm, but a steady atmospheric pattern, which usually takes shape each year in the Arctic stratosphere, a layer 16 to 48 kilometers above the surface of the northernmost point on Earth, and remains active mainly during the cold winter period. (美国国家海洋和大气管理局将极涡定义为一股强劲的西风带——它并非单一风暴，而是一种稳定的大气模式，通常每年在北极平流层形成，该层位于地球最北端表面上方16至48公里处，且主要在寒冷的冬季保持活跃。)”可知，NOAA定义的极涡具有强劲、系统性、规律性的特点，破坏性未被提及。故选D项。 【17题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“The U.S. National Weather Service (NWS) warned of possible dangers such as frostbite and hypothermia for unprotected skin, as well as frozen and burst home water pipes due to prolonged cold, adding that most states would face low windchill temperatures, with exceptions including those with milder climates like Hawaii, California and Florida. (风寒温度——一种计入风的影响的气温读数——在美国中西部降至零下51摄氏度，比实际气温更低。美国国家气象局提醒，裸露的皮肤可能会面临冻伤、体温过低等风险，长时间的严寒还会导致家用水管冻结破裂，并补充称，除夏威夷、加利福尼亚和佛罗里达等气候较为温和的州外，大部分州都将遭遇低温风寒天气。)”可知，文中提及风寒指数是为了强调极端严寒的严重性。故选B项。 【18题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The midwestern region, covering states such as Kansas, Nebraska and Missouri, was expected to be hit the hardest. (包括堪萨斯州、内布拉斯加州和密苏里州在内的中西部地区预计受影响最为严重。)”可知，美国中西部各州更容易受到极端寒冷天气的影响。故选B项。 【19题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“The U.S. National Weather Service (NWS) warned of possible dangers such as frostbite and hypothermia for unprotected skin, as well as frozen and burst home water pipes due to prolonged cold, adding that most states would face low windchill temperatures, with exceptions including those with milder climates like Hawaii, California and Florida.

I think AI can be a great learning partner for students. First, AI is easy to use. We can practice English with it at any time, like reading or listening after class. Second, it can help us find mistakes in our writing or pronunciation quickly. Third, AI has many simple learning materials that fit our level, making study not so hard. In short, AI is a useful tool for English learning. If we use it well, it will help us make great progress in English. Possible version 2 AI: An Ideal English Learning Partner With the rapid development of technology, artificial intelligence (AI) has been widely applied in education, especially in English learning. From my perspective, AI can undoubtedly serve as the best English learning partner. Firstly, AI offers accessibility, allowing us to practice anytime and anywhere, which maximizes fragmented time. Secondly, it provides personalized feedback — correcting pronunciation and grammar errors instantly, and recommending tailored materials based on our levels. Moreover, interacting with AI reduces the anxiety of making mistakes, encouraging us to speak more boldly. In conclusion, AI combines convenience, efficiency and personalization perfectly. By leveraging this powerful tool wisely, we can significantly boost our English skills. It is truly a reliable companion on our English learning journey. Possible version 3 AI: A Revolutionary English Learning companion As technology advances by leaps and bounds, artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a transformative force in education, reshaping the way we learn English. I firmly believe that AI is not just a good partner but the optimal one for English learners. Beyond 24/7 availability, AI utilizes big data to analyze our learning patterns, delivering highly personalized guidance — from pinpointing subtle grammar flaws to suggesting targeted exercises that address our weak points. Furthermore, its interactive features, such as simulated conversations and intelligent Q&A, create an immersive environment that fosters effective communication without the fear of judgment. In essence, AI integrates innovation with practicality, making English learning more efficient and engaging. Embracing this tool thoughtfully will not only enhance our language proficiency but also cultivate lifelong learning skills essential for the future. 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达属于应用文。要求考生写一篇以“人工智能能否成为最佳的英语学习伙伴?”为话题的文章投稿，说明自己的观点并阐述了相关理由。 【详解】1.词汇积累（参照范文2） 广泛的：widely→broadly 无疑地：undoubtedly→certainly 个性化的：personalized→customized 提升：boost→enhance 2.句式拓展 同义句 原句：With the rapid development of technology, artificial intelligence(AI)has been widely applied in education, especially in English learning. 拓展句：As technology develops rapidly, artificial intelligence(AI)has been widely applied in education, especially in English learning. 【点睛】【高分句型1】Firstly, AI offers accessibility, allowing us to practice anytime and anywhere, which maximizes fragmented time.（运用了which引导的非限制性定语从句） 【高分句型2】Moreover, interacting with AI reduces the anxiety of making mistakes, encouraging us to speak more boldly.（运用了动名词interacting作主语，encouraging为现在分词作状语） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
