However, one fateful day, their peaceful life was turned upside down by a destructive natural disaster. The morning started like any other. The sun rose, casting its golden rays over the town. People woke up, prepared for their daily routine, and went about their business. Little did they know that a storm was brewing far out on the ocean. As the day progressed, the sky began to darken, and the wind started to pick up. By afternoon, Havenbrook was in the control of a powerful hurricane. The hurricane’s fierce winds tore through the town, cutting roofs into pieces and overturning trees. The ocean, whipped into a frenzy by the storm, washed in huge waves into the town, flooding streets and homes. Residents (居民), caught unprepared, hurried to find shelter. Many were trapped in their homes, waiting in terror as the water rose higher and higher. It seemed as if the world were at an end. The town’s emergency services worked tirelessly to rescue those in danger. They used boats to navigate through the flooded streets and transported people to safety. However, the storm was so powerful that even their efforts were limited. Many homes were completely destroyed, and lives were lost. The once-thriving town was now a scene of ruin and despair (绝望). After the hurricane, Havenbrook’s residents began the arduous task of rebuilding their life. They worked together, pooling their resources and skills, to rebuild their homes and community. Support from outside the town poured in, with volunteers and donations helping to speed up the recovery process. Slowly but surely, Havenbrook began to rise from the ruins. 4. What can be learned from the first two paragraphs? A. The residents sensed the upcoming storm. B. The residents often suffered natural disasters. C. The residents were not prepared for daily life. D. The residents enjoyed a peaceful life before the disaster. 5. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The residents began rescue work. B. The hurricane arrived with no warning. C. The residents left their homes hopefully. D. The hurricane caused severe damage and widespread fear. 6. What specific actions did the town’s emergency services take during the disaster? A. They shipped people to safety. B. They rescued the mothers first by boat. C. They delayed any action until the storm ended. D. They failed to reach the affected areas due to the storm. 7. What is the probable meaning of the underlined word “arduous” in the last paragraph? A. Challenging. B. Cheerful. C. Effortless. D. Disappointing. 【答案】4. D 5. D 6. A 7. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了黑文布鲁克小镇的居民原本在沿海家园过着平静安宁的生活，却因一场突如其来的飓风遭遇灾难，小镇被严重破坏，居民陷入危机；灾后大家齐心协力、借助外界援助，逐步重建家园的故事。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“For generations, the people of Havenbrook thrived in peace, embraced by the beauty of the ocean and the quiet security of their coastal home. (几代人以来，黑文布鲁克的居民在和平中繁衍生息，沉浸在海洋的美景和海滨家园带来的宁静安稳之中)”以及第二段“People woke up, prepared for their daily routine, and went about their business. Little did they know that a storm was brewing far out on the ocean. (人们起床后，按部就班地准备开始日常工作和生活，却丝毫没有察觉到一场风暴正在遥远的海洋上酝酿)”可知，灾难发生前，黑文布鲁克的居民过着平静的生活。故选D。 【5题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“The hurricane’s fierce winds tore through the town, cutting roofs into pieces and overturning trees. The ocean, whipped into a frenzy by the storm, washed in huge waves into the town, flooding streets and homes. Residents, caught unprepared, hurried to find shelter. Many were trapped in their homes, waiting in terror as the water rose higher and higher. (飓风的狂风席卷了整个小镇，将屋顶掀翻撕成碎片、树木吹倒。被风暴搅得汹涌澎湃的海水，掀起巨浪涌入小镇，淹没了街道和房屋。毫无准备的居民们匆忙寻找避难所，许多人被困在家中，恐惧地看着水位越涨越高)”可知，该段主要描述了飓风给小镇带来的严重破坏，以及给居民带来的巨大恐慌。故选D。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“The town’s emergency services worked tirelessly to rescue those in danger. They used boats to navigate through the flooded streets and transported people to safety. (小镇的应急救援人员不辞辛劳地营救处于危险中的人们，他们乘船在被淹没的街道中穿行，将人们转移到安全地带)”可知，应急救援人员的具体行动是用船把人们送到安全的地方。故选A。 【7题详解】 词句猜测题。根据最后一段“After the hurricane, Havenbrook’s residents began the arduous task of rebuilding their life. They worked together, pooling their resources and skills, to rebuild their homes and community. (飓风过后，黑文布鲁克的居民开始了重建生活的arduous任务。他们齐心协力，集中资源和技能，重建家园和社区)”，结合前文提到小镇被飓风摧毁成一片废墟的背景，可推断重建工作是艰难且具有挑战性的。划线单词arduous的意思是“艰难的，具有挑战性的”，和challenging意思相近。故选A。 C As the extreme heat waves now hitting parts of Europe, Asia, and the US show, worldwide homes urgently need changes to cope with a hotter climate. The quickest, simplest solution is to equip (安装) air-conditioning (空调系统). But this would lead to a huge increase in electricity demand, researchers warn, driving further climate change. “If our houses overheat and our first response is to turn to air-conditioning, that will overload our energy systems,” said Miranda, a researcher from Oxford University. A greener solution would be to develop “passive cooling” technologies, which don’t require large energy inputs. Bertie Ozarisoy from Middle East Technical University found a special home built in 2015, Userhuus, had a “severe overheating risk” during the summer. Using computer models of the house, he found that adding a wind catcher (风斗) was the most effective solution to the reduction of indoor temperatures. Wind catchers get the cooler wind from high above the ground and direct it into the building, pushing out the warmer air inside the house. However, while wind catchers can be a good fit for new homes, they are likely to be an expensive addition. Further research showed that opening windows at night and pulling down shades during the day can lower indoor air temperatures by 14℃ during a heatwave. “Most heat in a home comes from two sources: first, people and equipment they use, and second, solar (太阳的) heat gained through windows,” says Bertie. “Hot outside air is actually a very small source.” “The key is to open all the windows throughout the house at night, as soon as the outside air is cooler than it is inside. Keep them open all night, and close them only when the outdoor temperature rises again the next morning,” he added. During the day, therefore, blocking sunlight is an effective way to keep temperatures under control. 8. What is Miranda’s view on equipping air-conditioning? A. Unfavourable. B. Unconcerned. C. Positive. D. Objective. 9. What could be the weakness of a wind catcher? A. Limited effect. B. Unattractive appearance. C. High cost. D. Equipping difficulties. 10. According to Bertie Ozarisoy, the majority of heat in a home comes from . A. air-conditioning B. poorly-designed windows C. hot outside air and direct sunlight D. solar heat gained through windows and people’s activities 11. What is the most suitable title for the text? A. Sources of Heat B. Causes for Heatwaves C. How to Cool Your Home D. How to Equip Air-conditioning 【答案】8. A 9. C 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了面对全球变暖引发的极端热浪，住宅需改造应对，分析了空调制冷的弊端，重点介绍了被动式降温技术及夜间开窗、白天遮阳等低成本降温方法。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段““If our houses overheat and our first response is to turn to air-conditioning, that will overload our energy systems,” said Miranda, a researcher from Oxford University.(牛津大学研究员Miranda表示：“如果住宅闷热难耐，而我们的第一反应就是开空调，那么能源系统将不堪重负。”)”可知，Miranda认为依赖空调会让能源系统不堪重负，这会进一步加剧气候变化，由此能看出她对安装空调的态度是不赞同的。故选A。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“However, while wind catchers can be a good fit for new homes, they are likely to be an expensive addition.(不过，尽管风斗很适合新建住宅，但它很可能是一种昂贵的附加装置)”可知，风斗虽然降温效果好、适合新建住宅，但作为加装设备的成本很高，这就是它的缺陷。故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段““Most heat in a home comes from two sources: first, people and equipment they use, and second, solar (太阳的) heat gained through windows,” says Bertie.(Bertie指出：“室内热量来源主要有两个：一是居住者本身以及他们使用的各类设备，二是通过窗户进入室内的太阳辐射热。”)”可知，Bertie指出室内热量的两大主要来源是居住者及其使用的设备、透过窗户进入的太阳辐射热。故选D。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知，文章开篇以极端热浪为背景，指出住宅需要改造以应对高温；随后分析了安装空调的弊端；接着重点介绍了被动式降温技术（加装风斗）和低成本降温方法（夜间开窗、白天遮阳）。全文围绕住宅降温的方法展开，C选项“How to Cool Your Home(如何给你的家降温)”适合作为标题。故选C。 D An increasing number of individuals are making use of ChatGPT, an artificial intelligence program, to create books for sale. Although sales have so far been limited, many human writers express concern that AI-generated books could pose challenges to the traditional writing and publishing industry. Until recently, Brett Schickler never imagined he could be a published author. But after learning about the ChatGPT artificial intelligence program, Brett decided that he had a good chance. Using the AI software, Brett created a 30-page illustrated children’s e-book in a few hours. He offered it for sale through Amazon’s self-publishing section and it made Brett less than $100. While that may not sound like much, it’s enough to drive him to create other books using the software. There were over 200 e-books in Amazon’s Kindle store up to mid-February that say ChatGPT is a writer or a co-writer. And the number is rising daily. But due to the nature of ChatGPT and many writers’ failure to admit that they have used it, it is nearly impossible to get a full count of how many e-books may be written by AI. Some professional writers are showing their concern, “This is something we really need to be concerned about. These books will flood the market and a lot of authors are going to be out of work,” said Mary Rasenberger, the executive director of the Authors Guild, a writer’s group, “The ability to create with AI could turn book writing from an art into a commodity (商品), a kind of simple raw material that is bought and sold.” Not everyone is impressed by the software. Mark Dawson, who has reportedly sold millions of copies of books, was quick to label ChatGPT-assisted novels unremarkable. Dawson said, “Quality is of great importance in the book business, and is one of the key factors in determining how books are recommended to other readers. If a book receives negative reviews for its ordinary writing, it will quickly sink to the bottom.” 12. Why does the author mention the example of Brett Schickler? A. To share how to make much money through writing. B. To explain how to create e-books by using ChatGPT. C. To explore the future application of ChatGPT in writing. D. To show how ChatGPT affects people in creating books. 13. What is Mary Rasenberger’s primary concern? A. E-books’ influence on professional writers. B. Readers’ challenges in finding high-quality novels. C. AI’s effects on the book publishing industry. D. Writers’ failure to create works without dependence on ChatGPT. 14. According to Mark Dawson, which of the following is vital for a book’s success? A. The book sales of its author. B. The high quality of the writing. C. The aid of advanced AI technology. D. The mixed reviews from its readers. 15. What is the main purpose of the text? A. To promote the use of AI. B. To discuss a new phenomenon. C. To applaud human beings’ wisdom. D. To present the latest scientific progress. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. B 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了越来越多人使用ChatGPT创作并售卖电子书，这一现象虽目前销量有限，但数量持续增长，同时引发了专业作家对行业冲击、创作性质改变的担忧，也有作家认为这类作品因质量不足难以立足。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Until recently, Brett Schickler never imagined he could be a published author. But after learning about the ChatGPT artificial intelligence program, Brett decided that he had a good chance. Using the AI software, Brett created a 30-page illustrated children’s e-book in a few hours.(直到不久前，Brett Schickler从未想过自己会成为一名出版作家。但在了解到ChatGPT这款人工智能程序后，Brett认为自己迎来了一个好机会。借助这款人工智能软件，他仅用几个小时就创作了一本30页的图文儿童电子书。)”可知，作者以Brett为例，具体展示了普通人如何借助ChatGPT快速实现出书的想法，以此说明ChatGPT对人们书籍创作行为产生的影响。故选D。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“These books will flood the market and a lot of authors are going to be out of work,” said Mary Rasenberger, the executive director of the Authors Guild, a writer’s group, “The ability to create with AI could turn book writing from an art into a commodity (商品), a kind of simple raw material that is bought and sold.”(作家组织“美国作家协会”执行董事Mary Rasenberger表示：“这类书籍会充斥整个市场，导致大量作家失业。人工智能辅助创作的模式，可能会将写书这门艺术变成一种商品，一种可以随意买卖的普通原材料。”)”可知，Mary Rasenberger的核心担忧是人工智能创作的书籍会冲击市场，让作家失业，还会改变书籍创作的性质，这些都属于人工智能对图书出版行业的影响。故选C。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Dawson said, “Quality is of great importance in the book business, and is one of the key factors in determining how books are recommended to other readers. If a book receives negative reviews for its ordinary writing, it will quickly sink to the bottom.”(Dawson称：“在图书行业，质量是重中之重，也是决定一本书能否被推荐给更多读者的关键因素之一。如果一本书因文笔平庸而差评不断，它很快就会被市场淘汰。”)”可知，Mark Dawson明确提出，在图书行业中质量是重中之重，也是决定书籍能否被推荐的关键因素，因此写作的高质量对一本书的成功至关重要。故选B。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章内容可知，文章开篇“An increasing number of individuals are making use of ChatGPT, an artificial intelligence program, to create books for sale. (越来越多的人开始使用人工智能程序ChatGPT创作书籍并进行售卖。)”指出“越来越多人使用ChatGPT创作并售卖书籍”这一现象，随后用Brett的案例具体说明该现象的表现，接着提及亚马逊平台上AI创作书籍的数量增长情况，最后引用不同作家的观点，讨论这一现象引发的担忧和争议。全文围绕“AI 创作书籍”这一新现象展开论述。故选B。 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。 I spent four years studying Spanish when I attended high school — primarily because it was required.

When I began working as a restaurant manager in a location with a nearly 100% Hispanic staff, I immediately regretted not taking it more seriously back then. However, with some online resources and a lot of help from my coworkers, I eventually became fluent in Spanish.(我上高中时花了四年时间学习西班牙语，主要是因为这是必修课。当我开始在一个几乎100%西班牙裔员工的地方担任餐厅经理时，我立刻后悔当时没有更认真地对待这件事。然而，在一些在线资源和同事的帮助下，我最终掌握了流利的西班牙语。)”讲述了作者高中时被迫学西班牙语但不够认真，工作后因环境需求重新学习并流利掌握的经历，下文“there are several great reasons to do so.

The house was decorated with bright balloons, a big poster saying “HAPPY BIRTHDAY”, and of course a birthday cake with 16 lit candles. It was a wonderful feeling. I realized that I had finally turned 16 and I might possibly get the thing I wanted most. I saw Mom and Dad walking over with a small box that seemed to be a birthday present. My heart started pounding faster as I opened it. Inside was exactly what I’d dreamed of — a brand new mobile phone! I was so excited that I hugged them both right away and let out a cry of joy, “Thank you! I love you so much!” “You’re welcome. We didn’t just get this for your birthday, but also to celebrate how hard you’ve been working in school. We’re proud of you and expect you to keep getting good grades.” “Of course, I will,” I said confidently. The moment I got to school the next morning, I started showing off my phone and asking everyone for their numbers. What really surprised me was that I got so many contacts on the first day. I felt like I wasn’t in the classroom anymore. I hardly paid attention to the teachers because I was too busy on my phone. However, I never got caught using it. I was pretty sure that the teacher had noticed that I stopped paying attention to her because a week later we took a test and I failed. What was worse, my mom had to sign (签字) the test paper. It was so hard to show my mom the test paper. She was used to seeing A’s and B’s from me, not a failing grade. When I finally handed it to her, she just stared in disbelief. More than angry, she was truly disappointed. 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。 Understanding why I failed, my parents began to regret having given me the phone. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next morning, I headed to the teacher’s office. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 Understanding why I failed, my parents began to regret having given me the phone. They sat me down gently, their voices full of concern rather than blame. “We wanted to reward your efforts, not distract you from studies,” Mom said softly. Dad added that a phone should be a tool, not a toy that takes over my life. We agreed to set strict rules: no phone during classes or study time, and only 30 minutes of use after finishing homework. I felt ashamed and nodded firmly, knowing I’d let them down. The next morning, I headed to the teacher’s office. With the failed test paper in hand, I apologized sincerely for my inattention in class. The teacher, who always encouraged me, patted my shoulder and said, “Mistakes are lessons if you learn from them.” She offered to help me review the missed knowledge after school. I thanked her warmly, determined to put the phone aside and focus on my studies again. That day, I realized that true happiness comes from hard work, not temporary pleasures. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者16岁生日收到家人朋友惊喜，如愿得到新手机，父母以此奖励他学业努力。他上学沉迷玩手机分心听课，导致考试不及格，让成绩优良的自己和父母失望。父母后悔送手机并定下使用规矩，作者向老师致歉，决心专心学习，明白真正快乐源于努力而非短暂欢愉。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“明白了自己失败的原因后，我的父母开始为当初给我买手机而感到后悔”可知，第一段可描写父母后悔送手机并定下使用规矩。 ②由第二段首句内容“第二天早上，我前往老师的办公室”可知，第二段可描写作者向老师致歉，决心专心学习，明白真正快乐源于努力而非短暂欢愉。 2.续写线索：父母后悔——制定使用规则——感到羞愧——向老师道歉——专心学习——作者感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①集中：focus on/concentrate on ②意识到：realize/be aware of ③控制：take over/control 情绪类 ①担心：concern/worry ②真诚地：sincerely/genuinely 【点睛】[高分句型1] I felt ashamed and nodded firmly, knowing I’d let them down.（运用了现在分词knowing作状语） [高分句型2] That day, I realized that true happiness comes from hard work, not temporary pleasures.（运用了that引导宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高一英语试卷 注意事项： 1.答题前，先将自己的姓名、准考证号、考场号、座位号填写在试卷和答题卡上，并将准考证号条形码粘贴在答题卡上的指定位置。 2.选择题的作答：每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。写在试卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 3.非选择题的作答：用黑色签字笔直接答在答题卡上对应的答题区域内。写在试卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 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，并标在试卷的相应位置。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.

B For generations, the people of Havenbrook thrived in peace, embraced by the beauty of the ocean and the quiet security of their coastal home. However, one fateful day, their peaceful life was turned upside down by a destructive natural disaster. The morning started like any other. The sun rose, casting its golden rays over the town. People woke up, prepared for their daily routine, and went about their business. Little did they know that a storm was brewing far out on the ocean. As the day progressed, the sky began to darken, and the wind started to pick up. By afternoon, Havenbrook was in the control of a powerful hurricane. The hurricane’s fierce winds tore through the town, cutting roofs into pieces and overturning trees. The ocean, whipped into a frenzy by the storm, washed in huge waves into the town, flooding streets and homes. Residents (居民), caught unprepared, hurried to find shelter. Many were trapped in their homes, waiting in terror as the water rose higher and higher. It seemed as if the world were at an end. The town’s emergency services worked tirelessly to rescue those in danger. They used boats to navigate through the flooded streets and transported people to safety. However, the storm was so powerful that even their efforts were limited. Many homes were completely destroyed, and lives were lost. The once-thriving town was now a scene of ruin and despair (绝望). After the hurricane, Havenbrook’s residents began the arduous task of rebuilding their life. They worked together, pooling their resources and skills, to rebuild their homes and community. Support from outside the town poured in, with volunteers and donations helping to speed up the recovery process. Slowly but surely, Havenbrook began to rise from the ruins. 4. What can be learned from the first two paragraphs? A. The residents sensed the upcoming storm. B. The residents often suffered natural disasters. C. The residents were not prepared for daily life. D. The residents enjoyed a peaceful life before the disaster. 5. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The residents began rescue work. B. The hurricane arrived with no warning. C. The residents left their homes hopefully. D. The hurricane caused severe damage and widespread fear. 6. What specific actions did the town’s emergency services take during the disaster? A. They shipped people to safety. B. They rescued the mothers first by boat. C. They delayed any action until the storm ended. D. They failed to reach the affected areas due to the storm. 7. What is the probable meaning of the underlined word “arduous” in the last paragraph? A. Challenging. B. Cheerful. C. Effortless. D. Disappointing. C As the extreme heat waves now hitting parts of Europe, Asia, and the US show, worldwide homes urgently need changes to cope with a hotter climate. The quickest, simplest solution is to equip (安装) air-conditioning (空调系统). But this would lead to a huge increase in electricity demand, researchers warn, driving further climate change. “If our houses overheat and our first response is to turn to air-conditioning, that will overload our energy systems,” said Miranda, a researcher from Oxford University. A greener solution would be to develop “passive cooling” technologies, which don’t require large energy inputs. Bertie Ozarisoy from Middle East Technical University found a special home built in 2015, Userhuus, had a “severe overheating risk” during the summer. Using computer models of the house, he found that adding a wind catcher (风斗) was the most effective solution to the reduction of indoor temperatures. Wind catchers get the cooler wind from high above the ground and direct it into the building, pushing out the warmer air inside the house. However, while wind catchers can be a good fit for new homes, they are likely to be an expensive addition. Further research showed that opening windows at night and pulling down shades during the day can lower indoor air temperatures by 14℃ during a heatwave. “Most heat in a home comes from two sources: first, people and equipment they use, and second, solar (太阳的) heat gained through windows,” says Bertie. “Hot outside air is actually a very small source.” “The key is to open all the windows throughout the house at night, as soon as the outside air is cooler than it is inside. Keep them open all night, and close them only when the outdoor temperature rises again the next morning,” he added. During the day, therefore, blocking sunlight is an effective way to keep temperatures under control. 8. What is Miranda’s view on equipping air-conditioning? A. Unfavourable. B. Unconcerned. C. Positive. D. Objective. 9. What could be the weakness of a wind catcher? A. Limited effect. B. Unattractive appearance. C. High cost. D. Equipping difficulties. 10. According to Bertie Ozarisoy, the majority of heat in a home comes from . A. air-conditioning B. poorly-designed windows C. hot outside air and direct sunlight D. solar heat gained through windows and people’s activities 11. What is the most suitable title for the text? A. Sources of Heat B. Causes for Heatwaves C. How to Cool Your Home D. How to Equip Air-conditioning D An increasing number of individuals are making use of ChatGPT, an artificial intelligence program, to create books for sale. Although sales have so far been limited, many human writers express concern that AI-generated books could pose challenges to the traditional writing and publishing industry. Until recently, Brett Schickler never imagined he could be a published author. But after learning about the ChatGPT artificial intelligence program, Brett decided that he had a good chance. Using the AI software, Brett created a 30-page illustrated children’s e-book in a few hours. He offered it for sale through Amazon’s self-publishing section and it made Brett less than $100. While that may not sound like much, it’s enough to drive him to create other books using the software. There were over 200 e-books in Amazon’s Kindle store up to mid-February that say ChatGPT is a writer or a co-writer. And the number is rising daily. But due to the nature of ChatGPT and many writers’ failure to admit that they have used it, it is nearly impossible to get a full count of how many e-books may be written by AI. Some professional writers are showing their concern, “This is something we really need to be concerned about. These books will flood the market and a lot of authors are going to be out of work,” said Mary Rasenberger, the executive director of the Authors Guild, a writer’s group, “The ability to create with AI could turn book writing from an art into a commodity (商品), a kind of simple raw material that is bought and sold.” Not everyone is impressed by the software. Mark Dawson, who has reportedly sold millions of copies of books, was quick to label ChatGPT-assisted novels unremarkable. Dawson said, “Quality is of great importance in the book business, and is one of the key factors in determining how books are recommended to other readers. If a book receives negative reviews for its ordinary writing, it will quickly sink to the bottom.” 12. Why does the author mention the example of Brett Schickler? A. To share how to make much money through writing. B. To explain how to create e-books by using ChatGPT. C. To explore the future application of ChatGPT in writing. D. To show how ChatGPT affects people in creating books. 13. What is Mary Rasenberger’s primary concern? A. E-books’ influence on professional writers. B. Readers’ challenges in finding high-quality novels. C. AI’s effects on the book publishing industry. D. Writers’ failure to create works without dependence on ChatGPT. 14. According to Mark Dawson, which of the following is vital for a book’s success? A. The book sales of its author. B. The high quality of the writing. C. The aid of advanced AI technology. D. The mixed reviews from its readers. 15. What is the main purpose of the text? A. To promote the use of AI. B. To discuss a new phenomenon. C. To applaud human beings’ wisdom. D. To present the latest scientific progress. 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。 I spent four years studying Spanish when I attended high school — primarily because it was required.

The house was decorated with bright balloons, a big poster saying “HAPPY BIRTHDAY”, and of course a birthday cake with 16 lit candles. It was a wonderful feeling. I realized that I had finally turned 16 and I might possibly get the thing I wanted most. I saw Mom and Dad walking over with a small box that seemed to be a birthday present. My heart started pounding faster as I opened it. Inside was exactly what I’d dreamed of — a brand new mobile phone! I was so excited that I hugged them both right away and let out a cry of joy, “Thank you! I love you so much!” “You’re welcome. We didn’t just get this for your birthday, but also to celebrate how hard you’ve been working in school. We’re proud of you and expect you to keep getting good grades.” “Of course, I will,” I said confidently. The moment I got to school the next morning, I started showing off my phone and asking everyone for their numbers. What really surprised me was that I got so many contacts on the first day. I felt like I wasn’t in the classroom anymore. I hardly paid attention to the teachers because I was too busy on my phone. However, I never got caught using it. I was pretty sure that the teacher had noticed that I stopped paying attention to her because a week later we took a test and I failed. What was worse, my mom had to sign (签字) the test paper. It was so hard to show my mom the test paper. She was used to seeing A’s and B’s from me, not a failing grade. When I finally handed it to her, she just stared in disbelief. More than angry, she was truly disappointed. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。 Understanding why I failed, my parents began to regret having given me the phone. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next morning, I headed to the teacher’s office. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
