B As a child, Brian Fisher dreamed of becoming a botanist. While on botany journeys, Fisher began to ask questions about the ants that he discovered on the plants he was researching. Since the other botanists were unable to identify those ants, Fisher reached out to an ant scientist to gain further knowledge. Then he became an entomologist, or a scientist who studies insects. Soon, Fisher set himself the goal of identifying every species of ant in the world, and he aims to construct a tree of ant species. Fisher, along with his team, has already succeeded in identifying a complete subfamily of ants. It was his ant species tree that led Fisher to Madagascar, an island off the coast of Africa. During his research in Madagascar’s six-month rainy season — which is ideal for observing ants — he endured (忍受) severe illnesses, and he and his team faced frequent rainstorms, broken bridges, rough roads, and such challenges as pushing cars free of mud. Yet his work in that region has extended far beyond the study of ants. “You cannot preserve a forest when the people living nearby are hungry,” he states, so he sought out methods to assist those individuals. He developed a new method for farming eatable insects, which he then taught to the people of Madagascar. Fisher understands what is required to build a career in the field of science. “To survive as a scientist,” he explains, “you must be motivated, driven, and fully focused.” He also emphasizes that being a good writer is essential, as it allows you to “share your story in an engaging way that will make people want to read your work.” Once Fisher’s species tree is fully completed, it may unlock an entirely new world of ant research. However, two major challenges stand in the way: climate change and human intervention. How can we study ants if their natural habitats are disappearing? Fisher hopes he can interest people in the significance of Earth’s biodiversity. 4. What initially contributed to Fisher’s changing his career? A. His childhood dream of saving ants. B. The aim of creating ant species tree. C. His experience of studying plants. D. The ant scientist’s encouragement. 5. Which word best describes Fisher’s journey in Madagascar? A. Eventful. B. Debatable. C. Unsuccessful. D. Costly. 6. What does Fisher intend to do? A. Focus on scientific writing. B. Protect the natural ecology. C. Improve farming techniques. D. Learn about ant species’ habitats. 7. What is the author’s main purpose in writing the text? A. To promote Fisher’s ant species tree. B. To explain Fisher’s research methods. C. To introduce Fisher’s career philosophy. D. To outline Fisher’s scientific research. C Crowd scenes present a particular technological challenge for AI image creation — especially video. “You’re managing so many complicated details” said Janae Jane, an expert on AI image creation. “You have each individual human being in the crowd. They’re all moving independently and have unique features.” But the latest AI video generation models such as Google’s Veo 3 and OpenAI’s Sora 2 are getting pretty good. “We’re moving into a world where in a generous time estimate of a year, the lines of reality are going to get really unclear,” Janae said. “And checking a crowd scene’s authenticity (真实性) in a video — whether it is real or not — is going to almost have to become like a practice.” A report from the global marketing firm Capgemini shows nearly three quarters of images shared on social media last year were generated using AI. With the technology becoming increasingly good at creating convincing crowd scenes, it’s especially easy to trick people into believing a fake (假的) crowd scene is real or a real crowd scene is false because of how the images are delivered. The challenge is that average people are watching content on a small screen, and they are not critical of what they see and hear. If it looks real, it is real. “The more realistic and believable the results we create are, the more options it gives people for creative expression,” said scientist Oliver Wang. “But misinformation is something that we do take very seriously. So we are stamping all the images that we generate with a visible watermark and an invisible watermark.” However, the visible watermark currently displayed on videos created by using Google’s Veo 3 is tiny and easy to miss, hidden in the corner of the screen. (Invisible watermarks, like Google’s SynthID, are not visible to regular users’ eyes; they help tech companies monitor AI content behind the scenes.) And AI labeling systems are still being applied rather unevenly across platforms. There are as yet no industry-wide standards, though companies said they are motivated to develop them. 8. Which statement may Janae agree with? A. AI boosts videos’ shooting technology. B. Reality and AI videos will soon mix up. C. Crowd scenes and AI are integrated well. D. AI video models focus on crowd scenes. 9. What is the public’s attitude to the authenticity of crowd scenes in a video? A. Doubtful. B. Picky. C. Carefree. D. Dismissive. 10. What can be inferred about AI labeling systems? A. They need to be polished quickly. B. They are not necessarily worth using. C. They are not applied sufficiently. D. They can make videos more creative. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. AI Is Getting Better at Faking Crowds B AI Videos Bring Both Benefits and Risks C. Crowd scenes Present AI’s Weaknesses D. Watermarks Are Solving AI’s fake problems D Your creative hobbies could do good to your brain, according to a new study. The study looked at brain activity data from 1,240 participants across 13 countries. Researchers used the data to create brain clocks — machine learning models that compare actual and neurological (神经系统的) age and can find cognitive (认知的) differences in patients. Then, they applied those models to 232 people who make art, dance, play video games and make music, all with different levels of creative experience. Researchers found that those who practiced their skill regularly had signs of slower brain aging. The strongest link was found in tango dancers, whose brains were on average seven years younger than their biological age. Even those who only engaged in short-term training in a creative activity saw benefits, the research found. “One of our key takeaways is that you do not need to be an expert to benefit from creativity. Indeed, we found that learners gained from brief video game training sessions,” says Carlos Coronel, the paper’s first author. Those video game training sessions involved teaching 24 right-handed participants how to play “StarCraft II”, a strategy video game involving creative problem-solving. The training lasted 30 hours over three to four weeks. Another group, used as a control, was trained in “Hearthstone”, a digital collectible card game that has more concrete rules and requires less strategic. Those who spent time playing “StarCraft II”each week showed slower brain aging and did better on brain tests after their training period than controls. The more skilled the participants were in their chosen art forms, the lower their brain age, the researchers write. The findings could have important public health implications, says Agustín Ibáñez, a scientist at Adolfo Ibáñez University in Chile. Perhaps creativity, like exercise, could be recommended to patients to protect brain health. “This is not relevant only for neuroscience, but it is a cultural and policy opportunity,” Ibáñez notes. “Our societies need to imagine healthy aging through both medical and non-medical domains, such as creativity, arts and play.” 12. Why did researchers make brain clocks? A. To develop new brain video games. B. To research various art benefits. C. To measure participants’ activities. D. To identify brain aging differences. 13. What does the underlined word “takeaways” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Conclusions. B. Assumptions. C. Predictions. D. Experiments. 14. What does the study imply about “StarCraft II”? A. It requires more brain power. B. It reduces brain health. C. It simplifies brain work. D. It increases brain strategizing. 15. What is the study’s public health value according to Ibáñez? A. Advancing medical reform. B. Training local medical staff. C Bettering social interactions. D. Providing reference for policies. 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。 Looking for a new job can feel challenging, especially when you have more experience or education than the job requires. You might be considered overqualified. This situation is common, but with some adjustments, you can still find a great opportunity. ____16____ One key step is to rethink your resume (简历). Instead of listing every achievement, focus on skills and experience that match the job you want now. For example, if you led a big team before but are applying for a specialist role, you might emphasize your individual skills and teamwork rather than your leadership title. ____17____ A simpler, tailored resume can help employers see you as a good fit, not as someone who will leave quickly. ___18___ You could talk about wanting to learn new things contribute to a team, or find better work-life balance. For instance, you might say you enjoy hands-on work and want to be closer to the daily tasks. ____19____ This helps ease any worries the employers might have. Demonstrating flexibility and a willingness to learn new processes can be highly persuasive. Remember: the goal of adjusting your strategy is to successfully secure a job position that fits your current life. By doing what is discussed above, you won’t just make “being overqualified” less of a problem. ____20____ These approaches will surely help you stand out as someone who has useful skills and is willing to work hard, turning this challenging job search into a hopeful new start. A. What extra experience do you really have? B. Leave out details that make you seem too advanced for the position. C. During interviews, explaining your interest in the specific role helps. D. Then what adjustments should you make when looking for a new job? E. You should consider your adjustments carefully before going to the interview. F. Instead, you’ll turn your rich experience from a possible worry into a clear plus. G. Just tell the employers you are excited about the job itself, not a temporary step. 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) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 The debate championship was fast approaching, and the team was in intense training in their school debate room.

Filled with ____28____, she showed Zac the bill the next day, and asked about his mom — that’s when he ____29____ opened up. Zac explained no one else could care for his mom, so he had to divide his ____30____ among the hospital, school, and practice. On hearing this, Nina’s initial ____31____ totally disappeared, replaced by ____32____ at her mistake. She’d been so set on the championship that she missed Zac’s ____33____.

One Saturday morning, she found a skinny brown dog outside her door. Its fur was dirty, and one of its paws (爪) looked hurt, the wound red and swollen(肿的).“I’ll call you Lucky,” Grace whispered, giving it a piece of bread. She wanted to keep Lucky, but she knew her parents might say no — they were busy with work, and had always worried that homeless animals might spread diseases. That afternoon, Nelson, Grace’s elderly neighbor, saw her feeding Lucky. He walked over. “Grace, you shouldn’t keep that dog,” he said. “Last month, a homeless dog dug up my vegetable garden. It ruined all my tomatoes!” Grace felt sad, but she didn’t argue. She knew Nelson loved his garden — he spent hours every day tending to it. Instead of giving up, Grace started visiting Lucky secretly. She brought it water, medicine and dog food and cleaned its hurt paw with warm water and a soft cloth, gently patting it. Lucky was always gentle; it never barked loudly or ran around wildly. One day, Grace was doing homework by the window. She saw Lucky sitting outside Nelson’s garden, watching a group of chicks that were pecking (啄) at the fence, ready to jump in and destroy the young plants. Suddenly, Lucky barked softly — just enough to scare the chicks away, keeping the garden’s plants safe. Grace smiled; she knew Lucky was trying to help. One Sunday morning, a heavy storm hit the neighborhood. Wind blew hard, and rain poured down. Grace worried about Lucky. As soon as the rain died down, she put on her raincoat and ran outside. Just as she stepped onto the street, Lucky came racing toward her. It stopped in front of her, barking urgently and pushing her hand gently, as if urging her to follow. Curious and concerned, Grace followed Lucky all the way to Nelson’s garden. 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。 There, she saw Nelson struggling to take care of his garden. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After helping Nelson, Grace returned home with Lucky and told her parents everything. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026届高三联合质量检测 英语 本试卷6页。总分150分。考试时间120分钟。 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 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。 例: How much is the shirt?

Soon, Fisher set himself the goal of identifying every species of ant in the world, and he aims to construct a tree of ant species. Fisher, along with his team, has already succeeded in identifying a complete subfamily of ants. It was his ant species tree that led Fisher to Madagascar, an island off the coast of Africa. During his research in Madagascar’s six-month rainy season — which is ideal for observing ants — he endured (忍受) severe illnesses, and he and his team faced frequent rainstorms, broken bridges, rough roads, and such challenges as pushing cars free of mud. Yet his work in that region has extended far beyond the study of ants. “You cannot preserve a forest when the people living nearby are hungry,” he states, so he sought out methods to assist those individuals. He developed a new method for farming eatable insects, which he then taught to the people of Madagascar. Fisher understands what is required to build a career in the field of science. “To survive as a scientist,” he explains, “you must be motivated, driven, and fully focused.” He also emphasizes that being a good writer is essential, as it allows you to “share your story in an engaging way that will make people want to read your work.” Once Fisher’s species tree is fully completed, it may unlock an entirely new world of ant research. However, two major challenges stand in the way: climate change and human intervention. How can we study ants if their natural habitats are disappearing? Fisher hopes he can interest people in the significance of Earth’s biodiversity. 4. What initially contributed to Fisher’s changing his career? A. His childhood dream of saving ants. B. The aim of creating ant species tree. C. His experience of studying plants. D. The ant scientist’s encouragement. 5. Which word best describes Fisher’s journey in Madagascar? A. Eventful. B. Debatable. C. Unsuccessful. D. Costly. 6. What does Fisher intend to do? A. Focus on scientific writing. B. Protect the natural ecology. C. Improve farming techniques. D. Learn about ant species’ habitats. 7. What is the author’s main purpose in writing the text? A. To promote Fisher’s ant species tree. B. To explain Fisher’s research methods. C. To introduce Fisher’s career philosophy. D. To outline Fisher’s scientific research. 【答案】4. C 5. A 6. B 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了昆虫学家布莱恩·费希尔从植物学家转向蚂蚁研究、在马达加斯加进行野外考察并推动生态保护的经历，展现其科学追求与社会责任感。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“While on botany journeys, Fisher began to ask questions about the ants that he discovered on the plants he was researching. Since the other botanists were unable to identify those ants, Fisher reached out to an ant scientist to gain further knowledge. Then he became an entomologist, or a scientist who studies insects. (在进行植物考察之旅时，费希尔开始对自己在研究对象植株上发现的蚂蚁产生了诸多疑问。由于其他植物学家都无法识别这些蚂蚁的种类，费希尔便主动联系了一位蚂蚁研究专家，以求深入学习相关知识。后来，他成了一名昆虫学家，也就是专门研究昆虫的科学家)”可知，费希尔正是在植物学研究过程中对蚂蚁产生疑问并寻求专业知识，进而改变职业成为昆虫学家的，因此研究植物的经历是他职业转变的最初诱因。故选C。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“During his research in Madagascar’s six-month rainy season — which is ideal for observing ants — he endured (忍受) severe illnesses, and he and his team faced frequent rainstorms, broken bridges, rough roads, and such challenges as pushing cars free of mud. Yet his work in that region has extended far beyond the study of ants. (马达加斯加长达六个月的雨季是观察蚂蚁的黄金时期，但费希尔在当地开展研究期间，不仅自己患上了严重的疾病，他和团队还遭遇了频繁的暴雨、桥梁坍塌、崎岖难行的道路，以及推车脱困等种种难题。即便如此，他在这片土地上所做的工作，意义早已远超蚂蚁研究本身)”可知，费希尔在马达加斯加的研究之旅既遭遇了多重挑战，又取得了超出蚂蚁研究范畴的成果。因此这段经历充满了各种事件和变故，eventful“多事的，多变故的”最能准确描述其经历。故选A。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“How can we study ants if their natural habitats are disappearing? Fisher hopes he can interest people in the significance of Earth’s biodiversity. (如果蚂蚁的自然栖息地不断消失，我们又该从何入手去研究它们呢？费希尔希望，自己能让更多人意识到地球生物多样性的重要意义)”可知，费希尔希望唤起人们对地球生物多样性的重视，以应对栖息地消失问题，这实质上是在呼吁保护自然生态环境。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章按照时间和逻辑顺序，梳理了费希尔从植物学转向昆虫学的过程、研究中的艰辛与贡献、科研理念以及面临的挑战。由此推知，作者撰写此文的主要目的是概述费希尔的科学研究成果。故选D。 C Crowd scenes present a particular technological challenge for AI image creation — especially video. “You’re managing so many complicated details,” said Janae Jane, an expert on AI image creation. “You have each individual human being in the crowd. They’re all moving independently and have unique features.” But the latest AI video generation models such as Google’s Veo 3 and OpenAI’s Sora 2 are getting pretty good. “We’re moving into a world where in a generous time estimate of a year, the lines of reality are going to get really unclear,” Janae said. “And checking a crowd scene’s authenticity (真实性) in a video — whether it is real or not — is going to almost have to become like a practice.” A report from the global marketing firm Capgemini shows nearly three quarters of images shared on social media last year were generated using AI. With the technology becoming increasingly good at creating convincing crowd scenes, it’s especially easy to trick people into believing a fake (假的) crowd scene is real or a real crowd scene is false because of how the images are delivered. The challenge is that average people are watching content on a small screen, and they are not critical of what they see and hear. If it looks real, it is real. “The more realistic and believable the results we create are, the more options it gives people for creative expression,” said scientist Oliver Wang. “But misinformation is something that we do take very seriously. So we are stamping all the images that we generate with a visible watermark and an invisible watermark.” However, the visible watermark currently displayed on videos created by using Google’s Veo 3 is tiny and easy to miss, hidden in the corner of the screen. (Invisible watermarks, like Google’s SynthID, are not visible to regular users’ eyes; they help tech companies monitor AI content behind the scenes.) And AI labeling systems are still being applied rather unevenly across platforms. There are as yet no industry-wide standards, though companies said they are motivated to develop them. 8. Which statement may Janae agree with? A AI boosts videos’ shooting technology. B. Reality and AI videos will soon mix up. C. Crowd scenes and AI are integrated well. D. AI video models focus on crowd scenes. 9. What is the public’s attitude to the authenticity of crowd scenes in a video? A. Doubtful. B. Picky. C. Carefree. D. Dismissive. 10. What can be inferred about AI labeling systems? A. They need to be polished quickly. B. They are not necessarily worth using. C. They are not applied sufficiently. D. They can make videos more creative. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. AI Is Getting Better at Faking Crowds B. AI Videos Bring Both Benefits and Risks C. Crowd scenes Present AI’s Weaknesses D. Watermarks Are Solving AI’s fake problems 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要主要讲述人工智能（AI）在生成人群场景视频方面的技术进步、真实性挑战及应对措施，同时指出公众态度和行业问题。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“We’re moving into a world where in a generous time estimate of a year, the lines of reality are going to get really unclear (我们正在迈入这样一个时代——往宽了说，最多一年时间，现实与人工智能生成视频的界限将会变得非常模糊)”可知，贾内认为很快现实与人工智能生成视频的界限会变得非常模糊，即二者将难以区分。故选B。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“The challenge is that average people are watching content on a small screen, and they are not critical of what they see and hear. If it looks real, it is real. (目前的问题在于，普通人通常是在小屏幕上观看内容，他们不会对所见所闻抱有批判态度，在他们看来，看起来真实的东西就是真实的。)”可知，公众对视频中人群场景的真实性持无所谓的态度。故选C。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“And AI labeling systems are still being applied rather unevenly across platforms. There are as yet no industry-wide standards, though companies said they are motivated to develop them. (此外，人工智能内容标签系统在各个平台的应用程度参差不齐。尽管相关企业表示有意愿推动制定统一标准，但截至目前，整个行业尚未形成通行的标准规范。)”可推知，人工智能标签系统应用得还不够充分。故选C。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中“Crowd scenes present a particular technological challenge for AI image creation — especially video. (人群场景的生成对人工智能图像创作——尤其是视频创作而言，是一项特殊的技术挑战。)”并结合全文可知，文章开篇以人群场景是人工智能视频生成的技术挑战切入，接着介绍最新模型在该方面的进步，随后讨论技术进步带来的真假难辨问题及应对措施，全文核心围绕“人工智能生成虚假人群场景的技术发展”展开，因此选项A“AI Is Getting Better at Faking Crowds (人工智能伪造人群场景的技术愈发纯熟)”能够涵盖文章主题，适合作为用作标题。故选A。 D Your creative hobbies could do good to your brain according to a new study. The study looked at brain activity data from 1,240 participants across 13 countries. Researchers used the data to create brain clocks — machine learning models that compare actual and neurological (神经系统的) age and can find cognitive (认知的) differences in patients. Then, they applied those models to 232 people who make art, dance, play video games and make music, all with different levels of creative experience. Researchers found that those who practiced their skill regularly had signs of slower brain aging. The strongest link was found in tango dancers, whose brains were on average seven years younger than their biological age. Even those who only engaged in short-term training in a creative activity saw benefits, the research found. “One of our key takeaways is that you do not need to be an expert to benefit from creativity. Indeed, we found that learners gained from brief video game training sessions,” says Carlos Coronel, the paper’s first author. Those video game training sessions involved teaching 24 right-handed participants how to play “StarCraft II”, a strategy video game involving creative problem-solving. The training lasted 30 hours over three to four weeks. Another group, used as a control, was trained in “Hearthstone”, a digital collectible card game that has more concrete rules and requires less strategic. Those who spent time playing “StarCraft II”each week showed slower brain aging and did better on brain tests after their training period than controls. The more skilled the participants were in their chosen art forms, the lower their brain age, the researchers write. The findings could have important public health implications, says Agustín Ibáñez, a scientist at Adolfo Ibáñez University in Chile. Perhaps creativity, like exercise, could be recommended to patients to protect brain health. “This is not relevant only for neuroscience, but it is a cultural and policy opportunity,” Ibáñez notes. “Our societies need to imagine healthy aging through both medical and non-medical domains, such as creativity, arts and play.” 12. Why did researchers make brain clocks? A. To develop new brain video games. B. To research various art benefits. C. To measure participants’ activities. D. To identify brain aging differences. 13. What does the underlined word “takeaways” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Conclusions. B. Assumptions. C. Predictions. D. Experiments. 14. What does the study imply about “StarCraft II”? A. It requires more brain power. B. It reduces brain health. C. It simplifies brain work. D. It increases brain strategizing. 15. What is the study’s public health value according to Ibáñez? A. Advancing medical reform. B. Training local medical staff. C. Bettering social interactions. D. Providing reference for policies. 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. A 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。一项新研究表明，有创造力的爱好对大脑有益，研究通过创建大脑时钟模型，发现定期进行艺术创作、舞蹈、游戏和音乐等活动的人大脑衰老速度较慢，即使是短期创造性活动培训也有益于提升大脑健康。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Researchers used the data to create brain clocks — machine learning models that compare actual and neurological age and can find cognitive differences in patients. (研究人员利用这些数据构建了大脑时钟——这是一种机器学习模型，可对比人的实际年龄与神经年龄，进而发现患者存在的认知差异。)”可知，研究人员制作大脑时钟是为了识别大脑衰老的差异。故选D。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中“Even those who only engaged in short-term training in a creative activity saw benefits, the research found. “One of our key takeaways is that you do not need to be an expert to benefit from creativity. Indeed, we found that learners gained from brief video game training sessions,” says Carlos Coronel, the paper’s first author. (研究还发现，即便是只接受过短期创意活动训练的人，也能从中获益。该论文第一作者卡洛斯・科罗内尔表示：“我们的核心takeaways之一是，无需成为领域专家，普通人也能从创意活动中收获益处。事实上，我们发现，即便是通过短期电子游戏训练课程，初学者也能有所收获。”)”可知，这里是在阐述研究得出的核心观点，因此可推断takeaways在此处的含义是“结论”。故选A。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“Another group, used as a control, was trained in “Hearthstone”, a digital collectible card game that has more concrete rules and requires less strategic.Those who spent time playing “StarCraft II” each week showed slower brain aging and did better on brain tests after their training period than controls. The more skilled the participants were in their chosen art forms, the lower their brain age, the researchers write. (另一组作为对照组，接受了《炉石传说》这款游戏的训练，这是一款数字集换式卡牌游戏，规则更具体，对策略的要求也更低。结果显示，每周坚持玩《星际争霸Ⅱ》的参与者，在训练期结束后，大脑衰老速度比对照组更慢，且在脑部测试中表现更优。研究人员写道，参与者在所选艺术形式方面越熟练，其大脑年龄就越低。)”可知，玩《星际争霸 2》的参与者展现出更慢的大脑衰老速度，且脑测试表现优于对照组。由此可知，《星际争霸 2》需要创造性解决问题、具备更强的策略性，相比规则更具体的《炉石传说》，它需要更多的脑力投入，对应It requires more brain power。故选A。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“The findings could have important public health implications, says Agustín Ibáñez, a scientist at Adolfo Ibáñez University in Chile. Perhaps creativity, like exercise, could be recommended to patients to protect brain health. ‘This is not relevant only for neuroscience, but it is a cultural and policy opportunity,’ Ibáñez notes. (智利阿道夫・伊瓦涅斯大学的科学家奥古斯丁・伊瓦涅斯表示，该研究成果对公共健康具有重要意义。或许，创意活动可以像运动一样，被推荐给患者，用于维护大脑健康。伊瓦涅斯强调：‘这一研究的意义不仅局限于神经科学领域，更是一次文化和政策层面的机遇。’)”可知，该研究的公共健康价值在于为相关政策制定提供参考。故选D。 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。 Looking for a new job can feel challenging, especially when you have more experience or education than the job requires.

One Saturday morning, she found a skinny brown dog outside her door. Its fur was dirty, and one of its paws (爪) looked hurt, the wound red and swollen(肿的).“I’ll call you Lucky,” Grace whispered, giving it a piece of bread. She wanted to keep Lucky, but she knew her parents might say no — they were busy with work, and had always worried that homeless animals might spread diseases. That afternoon, Nelson, Grace’s elderly neighbor, saw her feeding Lucky. He walked over. “Grace, you shouldn’t keep that dog,” he said. “Last month, a homeless dog dug up my vegetable garden. It ruined all my tomatoes!” Grace felt sad, but she didn’t argue. She knew Nelson loved his garden — he spent hours every day tending to it. Instead of giving up, Grace started visiting Lucky secretly. She brought it water, medicine and dog food and cleaned its hurt paw with warm water and a soft cloth, gently patting it. Lucky was always gentle; it never barked loudly or ran around wildly. One day, Grace was doing homework by the window. She saw Lucky sitting outside Nelson’s garden, watching a group of chicks that were pecking (啄) at the fence, ready to jump in and destroy the young plants. Suddenly, Lucky barked softly — just enough to scare the chicks away, keeping the garden’s plants safe. Grace smiled; she knew Lucky was trying to help. One Sunday morning, a heavy storm hit the neighborhood. Wind blew hard, and rain poured down. Grace worried about Lucky. As soon as the rain died down, she put on her raincoat and ran outside. Just as she stepped onto the street, Lucky came racing toward her. It stopped in front of her, barking urgently and pushing her hand gently, as if urging her to follow. Curious and concerned, Grace followed Lucky all the way to Nelson’s garden. 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。 There, she saw Nelson struggling to take care of his garden. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After helping Nelson, Grace returned home with Lucky and told her parents everything. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 There, she saw Nelson struggling to take care of his garden. The storm had blown down part of the garden fence, and tomato plants spread out on the muddy ground. Grace rushed to help hold the fence steady, while Lucky circled around — it picked up the gardening gloves blown away by the wind and dropped them at Nelson’s feet, then barked softly to warn off a few chicks edging near the plants. Nelson paused, watching as Lucky gently rubbed against his hand. “I was wrong about homeless dogs,” he said, patting Lucky’s head. Grace’s heart warmed, knowing Lucky had won over the neighbor who once disliked it. After helping Nelson, Grace returned home with Lucky and told her parents everything. She described how Lucky had led her to Nelson’s garden after the storm, helped gather tools, and even protected the plants from chicks before. Her parents listened quietly. “A dog that’s kind and responsible deserves a home,” Dad said, smiling. Mom fetched a bowl of warm water for Lucky and cleaned its fur gently. From that day on, the quiet neighborhood had a new member — Lucky, the dog who turned doubt into love, because of Grace, the girl who never gave up on kindness. They all knew, sometimes luck is just kindness finding its way back. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了格蕾丝发现一只受伤的流浪小狗并取名Lucky，虽遭邻居尼尔森反对仍偷偷照料，Lucky多次保护尼尔森的菜园，暴风雨后还带领格蕾丝帮助尼尔森修补菜园，打动了尼尔森和格蕾丝的父母，最终Lucky被格蕾丝一家收养，用善意化解了质疑。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“在那里，她看到尼尔森正在努力照料他的花园。”可知，第一段可描写暴风雨后菜园的狼藉景象、格蕾丝与Lucky如何协助尼尔森，以及尼尔森对Lucky态度的转变。 ②由第二段首句内容“在帮助了尼尔森之后，格蕾丝带着Lucky回家，把一切都告诉了父母。”可知，第二段可描写格蕾丝向父母讲述事情的来龙去脉，父母态度的变化，以及最终决定收养Lucky的过程。 2.续写线索：菜园狼藉——协助尼尔森——态度转变——告知父母——收养Lucky——善意圆满 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①急忙去帮忙：rush to help/hurry to assist ②轻抚：pat/stroke ③叙述：describe/narrate 情绪类 ①内心感到温暖：sb’s heart warmed/sb’s heart melted ②怀疑：doubt/suspicion 【点睛】【高分句型1】Nelson paused, watching as Lucky gently rubbed against his hand.
