【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了巴厘岛野生动物志愿者项目。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据ABOUT THE PROGRAM部分中“Bali wildlife volunteers help to care for a variety of animal species. Volunteers help promote and improve the well being of animals at the wildlife centre.(巴厘岛野生动物志愿者帮助照顾各种动物物种。志愿者帮助促进和改善野生动物中心动物的福祉)”可知,该项目的目的是为野生动物的福祉做出贡献。故选A项。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据REQUIREMENTS部分中“You should be physically fit, as volunteering overseas can be quite hard.(你应该身体健康,因为在海外做志愿者可能相当辛苦)”可知,对志愿者的一个具体要求是身体状况良好。故选C项。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据FREE TIME ACTIVITIES部分中“Participants generally volunteer on a Monday Thursday basis and on the weekends are free to relax or travel around.(参与者通常在周一至周四做志愿者,周末可以自由放松或四处旅行)”可知,志愿者在空闲时间可以四处旅行。故选D项。

Starting at the bookcases in my study, packed with so many great books that had remained unread, I heard a loud voice in my head— “How can you leave these masterpieces unread?”
The first book I picked up was Montaigne’s Essays. To my surprise, I discovered in the margins (页边空白) my own fixed hand-writing. So I was actually reading it again, but what I was rereading seemed entirely new. I also found sentences underlined. Only this time I wondered: Why did I underline this sentence? It’s the next one that is important!
Clearly, my view of reading had changed over the years. This raised the larger question of rereading, which comes in many forms. There’s voluntary rereading, the result of a willful decision to revisit a book one has admired, or to confirm certain details in the text. A devoted teacher might wish to refresh his understanding of a work, and thus avoid teaching through the same old written notes with soporific (令人昏昏欲睡的) effects.
Next, there’s involuntary rereading. The original reading was either forgotten or so totally absorbed that the new chance encounter with the text produced surprise and astonishment. My reaction to the renewed reading no longer felt like the original experience, and I was no longer sure that I recognized myself as the same reader.
Then there are what one might call subconscious (潜意识的) rereadings, those that happen without reading—much like recalling a song without actually being heard again. This remembered connection to books stays with us for life, shaping and strengthening us. We may over the years recite to ourselves poems learnt by heart long ago, which have become part of our self-recognition.
All of these ways of reading are valuable. The “new” reading, a form of revision, uncovers the change in us. The newness is not in the text. Rereading makes it possible for us to see the world around us, ourselves included, in a new light.
4. What did the author find when reading Montaigne’s Essays?
A. He couldn’t understand it. B. It was his favorite work.
C. He had made notes in it. D. It was a brand-new copy.
5. What could be a purpose of voluntary rereading for a teacher?
A. To learn from admirable characters. B. To improve the quality of teaching.
C. To collect details for writing novels. D. To help make important decisions.
6. What can involuntary rereading bring about?
A. Better reading skills. B. Original preference for books.
C. Faster reading speed. D. Unexpected reading experience.
7. What can be learnt about subconscious rereading?
A. It helps make who we are. B. It prevents memory from fading.
C. It involves actual reading. D. It works best with poetry and music.
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. D 7. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述了重读书籍的三种形式(主动重读、无意重读、潜意识重读)及其价值,强调重读能让人们以新视角认识世界与自我。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“To my surprise, I discovered in the margins(页边空白)my own fixed hand-writing. So I was actually reading it again, but what I was rereading seemed entirely new. I also found sentences underlined.(令我意外的是,我发现书页的空白处留有自己往日工整的字迹。原来我竟是在重读这本书,可书中内容读起来却全然像一本新书。我还看到有些句子被划了横线。)”可知,作者重读《蒙田随笔》时,发现书页空白处有自己的字迹,还有划横线的句子,即他之前在书中做过笔记。故选C。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“A devoted teacher might wish to refresh his understanding of a work, and thus avoid teaching through the same old written notes with soropific (让人睡醒的) effects.(一位用心教学的老师或许会通过重读来更新自己对作品的理解,这样就能避免照着陈旧的备课笔记授课,以免内容枯燥得让学生昏昏欲睡。)”可知,用心的教师主动重读作品是为了更新对作品的理解,避免使用陈旧笔记授课导致内容枯燥,也就是说是为了提升教学质量。故选B。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段“The original reading was either forgotten or so totally absorbed that the new chance encounter with the text produced surprise and astonishment. My reaction to the renewed reading no longer felt like the original experience, and I was no longer sure that I recognized myself as the same reader.(要么是早已忘了曾经读过这本书,要么是当初阅读时太过投入。当再次偶然翻看这本书时,内心满是惊讶。这次阅读带来的感受和初次阅读截然不同,我甚至都觉得,当初那个读书的自己和现在的自己判若两人。)”可知,无意重读时,因当初阅读记忆模糊或过于投入,再次偶遇文本会产生惊讶感,且阅读感受与初次截然不同,即会拥有意想不到的阅读体验。故选D。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第五段“This remembered connection to books stays with us for life, shaping and strengthening us. We may over the years recite to ourselves poems learnt by heart long ago, which have become part of our self-recognition.(这种与书籍之间的记忆联结会伴随我们一生,不断塑造并磨砺我们。多年来,我们或许会时常默念那些很久以前熟记于心的诗歌,而这些诗歌早已成为自我认知的一部分。)”可知,潜意识重读与书籍的记忆联结会伴随一生,塑造并磨砺我们,且熟记的内容会成为自我认知的一部分,即它有助于塑造我们的人格。故选A。
C
Hiromu Yakura, a postdoctoral researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Human Development, first became aware of differences in his own vocabulary about a year after ChatGPT came out. Researchers had previously found that use of large language models (LLMs), such as those that power ChatGPT, was changing vocabulary choices in written communication, and Yakura and his colleagues wanted to know whether spoken communication was being affected, too.
Researchers first used ChatGPT to edit large amounts of text like emails and articles using instructions such as “polish” or “improve clarity.” They identified words ChatGPT added frequently, like “delve,” labeling these GPT words. Next, the team analyzed over 360,000 YouTube videos and 770,000 podcast (播客) episodes from before and after ChatGPT’s release to track the use of GPT words over time. They compared the GPT words with “synthetic (合成) controls,” which were formed by mathematically weighting synonyms (同义词) that weren’t frequently used by the chatbot-such synonyms for “delve,” for example, could include “examine” and “explore.”
The team’s results show a significant rise in GPT words in the 18 months after ChatGPT’s release. The words didn’t just appear in formal, scripted videos or podcast episodes; they were peppered into natural conversation, too. “The patterns stored in AI technology seem to be sending back to the human mind,” notes co-author Levin Brinkmann, describing a cultural feedback cycle: humans train AI on text, AI returns statistically remixed versions, and then people unconsciously adopt its patterns. “It’s natural for humans to imitate one another, but we’re more likely to copy what someone else is doing if we perceive them as being knowledgeable or important,”
Brinkmann says. As more people look to AI as a cultural authority, they may rely on and imitate it over other sources, resulting in a likeness of language styles and expressions.
Tracking LLMs’ cultural impact is critical, according to the University of Chicago expert James Evans. “In this moment in the evolution (进化) of LLMs, looking at word distribution is the right methodology to understand how the technology is affecting the way we communicate,” he says, “But as the models mature, these distributions are going to be harder to distinguish.” Scientists may need to look at broader linguistic trends beyond word choice, such as sentence structure and how ideas are presented.
8. What made Yakura begin the new research?
A. Desire to explore potentials of LLMs.
B. Changes in personal vocabulary choices.
C. Previous research on written communication.
D. Dissatisfaction over poor performance of ChatGPT.
9. Why were the GPT words tracked in the research?
A. To show how diverse they are.
B. To measure their influence on language.
C. To check if they work in various contexts.
D. To compare them with human word choices.
10. Brinkmann mentions the trend of the cultural feedback cycle to illustrate ________.
A. it provides a different approach to learning
B. it results in misjudgment of cultural authorities
C. it is a natural part of technological development
D. it carries a hidden risk to the richness of language
11. What is suggested in the last paragraph?
A. A notable increase in sample size.
B. A probable shift in the future research focus.
C. A timely application of the research findings.
D. A thorough evaluation of the current research.
【答案】8. B 9. B 10. D 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了研究者针对ChatGPT等大型语言模型是否影响口头交流展开研究,以及研究过程、结果和相关专家看法。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Hiromu Yakura, a postdoctoral researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Human Development, first became aware of differences in his own vocabulary about a year after ChatGPT came out. Researchers had previously found that use of large language models (LLMs), such as those that power ChatGPT, was changing vocabulary choices in written communication, and Yakura and his colleagues wanted to know whether spoken communication was being affected, too.(马克斯·普朗克人类发展研究所的博士后研究员弘木矢仓(Hiromu Yakura)在ChatGPT问世大约一年后,首次意识到自己的词汇使用的差异。研究人员此前发现,像为ChatGPT提供支持的那些大型语言模型(LLM)的使用,正在改变书面交流中的词汇选择,而矢仓和他的同事们想知道口头交流是否也受到了影响)”可知,矢仓开始这项新研究是因为他发现自己的词汇选择发生了变化,且受此前书面交流相关研究启发,想探究口头交流是否受影响,核心触发点是个人词汇选择的变化。故选B项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Next, the team analyzed over 360,000 YouTube videos and 770,000 podcast (播客) episodes from before and after ChatGPT’s release to track the use of GPT words over time. They compared the GPT words with “synthetic (合成) controls,” which were formed by mathematically weighting synonyms (同义词) that weren’t frequently used by the chatbot — such synonyms for “delve,” for example, could include “examine” and “explore.”(接下来,该团队分析了ChatGPT发布前后的超过36万个YouTube视频和77万个播客剧集,以追踪GPT词汇随时间的使用情况。他们将GPT词汇与“合成对照词汇”进行比较,后者是通过对聊天机器人不常使用的同义词进行数学加权形成的——例如,“delve”的同义词可能包括“examine”和“explore”)”以及第三段中对追踪结果的分析可知,研究中追踪GPT词汇是为了了解其在不同时间段、不同场景中的使用变化,进而衡量大型语言模型对人类语言(包括口头交流)的影响。故选B项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“The patterns stored in AI technology seem to be sending back to the human mind,” notes co-author Levin Brinkmann, describing a cultural feedback cycle: humans train AI on text, AI returns statistically remixed versions, and then people unconsciously adopt its patterns. “It’s natural for humans to imitate one another, but we’re more likely to copy what someone else is doing if we perceive them as being knowledgeable or important,” Brinkmann says. As more people look to AI as a cultural authority, they may rely on and imitate it over other sources, resulting in a likeness of language styles and expressions.(合著者莱文·布林克曼(Levin Brinkmann)指出:“人工智能技术中存储的模式似乎正在反馈给人类思维。”他描述了一个文化反馈循环:人类用文本训练人工智能,人工智能返回经过统计重组的版本,然后人们无意识地采用这些模式。布林克曼说:“人类相互模仿是很自然的,但如果我们认为某人知识渊博或地位重要,就更有可能模仿他们的行为。”随着越来越多的人将人工智能视为文化权威,他们可能会更多地依赖和模仿人工智能,而非其他来源,从而导致语言风格和表达方式的趋同)”可推知,布林克曼提到文化反馈循环的趋势,是为了说明人们因将AI视为权威而模仿其语言模式,导致语言风格趋同,这对语言的丰富性存在潜在风险。故选D项。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“In this moment in the evolution (进化) of LLMs, looking at word distribution is the right methodology to understand how the technology is affecting the way we communicate,” he says, “But as the models mature, these distributions are going to be harder to distinguish.” Scientists may need to look at broader linguistic trends beyond word choice, such as sentence structure and how ideas are presented.(他说:“在大型语言模型发展的这个阶段,观察词汇分布是了解该技术如何影响我们交流方式的正确方法。但随着模型的成熟,这些分布将更难区分。”科学家可能需要关注词汇选择之外更广泛的语言趋势,例如句子结构和思想的呈现方式)”可知,最后一段暗示,随着大型语言模型的成熟,未来的研究重点可能会从当前的词汇分布转向更广泛的语言趋势,即研究重点可能会发生转变。故选B项。

Every morning when the alarm goes off, many people face a hard choice: to snooze (打盹) or not to snooze? If you happen to be an iPhone user, you may have wondered why the snooze button gives you exactly nine minutes. This number is not a casual choice as it is tied to historical design and human sleep science.
The nine-minute snooze period is not unique to the iPhone. In the mid-20th century, when mechanical (机械的) alarm clocks were the main type on the market, a leading producer introduced a snooze alarm. However, the standard gears of mechanical clocks made it difficult to set a double-digit snooze period. Engineers eventually settled on nine minutes, the largest possible single-digit (个位数的), to avoid the need to redesign the clock’s mechanism. Apple might have taken the nine-minute snooze to honor this early invention.
From a physiological point of view, a nine-minute period is practical. Our bodies start to fall into the second stage of a sleep cycle about 10 minutes after falling asleep. Therefore, a snooze period of nine minutes allows for less sudden awakening as it helps avoid a deeper stage of sleep. This timing can also reduce sleepiness and make it slightly easier to wake up when the alarm rings again.
The debate over whether snoozing is helpful or harmful continues among sleep experts. Some research suggests that snoozing provides enough time for the body and brain to shift gradually from sleep to wakefulness. On the other hand, other studies argue that while hitting the snooze button might give you a brief feeling of extra rest, it fragments your sleep and makes you more tired than if you wake up with the first alarm. Continuous, undisturbed sleep is generally better for mental abilities and overall health. Finally, understanding your own sleep patterns can help you make the decision between whether to keep hitting the snooze button or embrace the cruel reality of the first alarm.
12. Why was a nine-minute snooze time chosen for mechanical alarm clocks?
A. To show respect to the early design. B. To follow the trend of other clock producers.
C. To match the principles of human sleep science. D. To avoid the change of the clock’s inner structure.
13. What does the underlined word “fragment” in the last paragraph mean?
A. worsen B. break C. shorten D. delay
14. What does the author suggest at the end of the passage?
A. Keep hitting the snooze button to get extra rest.
B. Make a choice by considering your own sleep habits.
C. Ignore the snoozing effect and follow your sleep patterns.
D. Consider both positive and negative effects of snoozing before deciding.
15. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. Nine Minutes of Extra Rest or Nine Minutes of Regret?
B. Is the Nine-Minute snooze Beneficial to Our Sleep Routine?
C. Why is the Snooze Button an Important Feature of Alarm Clocks?
D. How Does the Snooze Button Work to Influence Our Sleep Quality?
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要围绕闹钟的九分钟打盹展开,讨论了其历史原因、生理依据以及打盹的利弊,最后建议根据自己的睡眠习惯决定是否打盹。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据文中“However, the standard gears of mechanical clocks made it difficult to set a double-digit snooze period. Engineers eventually settled on nine minutes, the largest possible single-digit (个位数的), to avoid the need to redesign the clock’s mechanism.(然而,机械时钟的标准齿轮使得它很难设置一个两位数的休眠时间。工程师们最终确定为9分钟,这是最大的个位数,以避免重新设计时钟的机制。)”可知,机械闹钟选择九分钟打盹是为了避免改变时钟的内部结构,故选D。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据最后一段“makes you more tired than if you wake up with the first alarm. Continuous, undisturbed sleep is generally better for mental abilities and overall health(这会让你比闹钟一响就醒更累。持续的、不受干扰的睡眠通常对心智能力和整体健康都有好处)”可知,虽然按下贪睡按钮可能会给你一种短暂的额外休息的感觉,但它会打断你的睡眠,让你比第一次闹铃就醒来更累,fragments的意思是“使……破碎、使……不完整”,和break意思相近。故选B。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Finally, understanding your own sleep patterns can help you make the decision between whether to keep hitting the snooze button or embrace the cruel reality of the first alarm.(最后,了解自己的睡眠模式可以帮助你做出决定,是继续按下贪睡按钮,还是接受第一个闹钟的残酷现实。)”可知,作者建议根据自己的睡眠习惯来做决定,故选B。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第一段“Every morning when the alarm goes off, many people face a hard choice: to snooze (打盹) or not to snooze? If you happen to be an iPhone user, you may have wondered why the snooze button gives you exactly nine minutes. This number is not a casual choice as it is tied to historical design and human sleep science.(每天早上,当闹钟响起的时候,很多人都面临着一个艰难的选择:是睡还是不睡?如果你碰巧是iPhone用户,你可能想知道为什么贪睡按钮会给你整整9分钟。这个数字不是随便选择的,因为它与历史设计和人类睡眠科学有关。)”可知,文章主要围绕闹钟的九分钟打盹展开,讨论了其历史原因、生理依据以及打盹的利弊,最后建议根据自己的睡眠习惯决定是否打盹,因此本文最好的标题是A选项“Nine Minutes of Extra Rest or Nine Minutes of Regret?(九分钟额外休息还是九分钟后悔?)”。故选A。

(我们建议让你的身体进入‘休息和消化’模式,而不是匆匆忙忙吃东西。)”与下文内容相呼应,提出了一个建议,即吃饭时应该让身体处于休息和消化的状态,而不是匆忙进食,句中“‘rest and digest’ mode”与下文“eating in a relaxed and calm state”相照应。故选F项。
【20题详解】
上文“A recent study by King’s College London found that eating within a ten-hour window, and therefore fasting for fourteen hours each day, is associated with better mood, better sleep, more energy and less hunger. (伦敦国王学院最近的一项研究发现,在10小时内进食,因此每天禁食14小时,与更好的情绪、更好的睡眠、更多的精力和更少的饥饿感有关。)”提到研究发现,在十个小时内进食,每天禁食十四个小时更好。E选项“This is easier than it sounds: it would mean eating between 9 a.m. and 7 p.m. (这比听起来更容易:这意味着在早上9点到晚上7点之间进食。)”对上文的内容进行了解释和说明,指出这种饮食方式实际上很容易实现,只需要在早上9点到晚上7点之间进食即可,上下文语意连贯。故选E项。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍巴黎奥运会期间,中国茶饮品牌霸王茶姬借赛事拓展国际形象,传播中国文化的举措。
【36题详解】
考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:自奥运会开幕以来,许多中国品牌都借助这一赛事来提升自身的全球形象。根据时间状语Since the Games began可知,此处强调从过去持续到现在的动作,用现在完成时,主语many Chinese brands为复数,所以谓语动词用have taken。故填have taken。
【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:比如中国茶饮品牌霸王茶姬最近就在巴黎开了一家茶饮店,为这座法国首都的空气里增添了一缕茉莉花茶的香甜气息。此处为非谓语动词作结果状语,The Chinese tea brand Chagee与add为主动关系,用现在分词adding。故填adding。
【38题详解】
考查介词。句意:体育是一种跨越国界与文化的语言,茶亦如此。此处为固定搭配go beyond,意为“超越、跨越”,用介词beyond。故填beyond。
【39题详解】
考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:霸王茶姬的茶饮店里推出了一系列文化活动,其中包括投壶和蹴鞠,前者是古代贵族喜爱的一项考验技巧与精准度的游戏,后者是被广泛认为是最早足球形态的中国古代球类运动。此处为倒装句,主语是pitching pots和cuju,为复数概念,且描述过去的活动,用一般过去时,所以谓语动词用were。故填were。
【40题详解】
考查连词。句意:霸王茶姬的茶饮店里推出了一系列文化活动,其中包括投壶和蹴鞠,前者是古代贵族喜爱的一项考验技巧与精准度的游戏,后者是被广泛认为是最早足球形态的中国古代球类运动。此处连接两个并列的名词短语pitching pots和cuju,表并列关系,用连词and。故填and。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:投壶这项运动原本是在宴会上进行,宾客们轮流投箭,如今它为外国宾客提供了一个了解中国古代文化的机会。此处为非谓语动词作状语,pitching pots与play为被动关系,用过去分词played,位于句首,首字母大写。故填Played。
【42题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:这种标注方式最早在上海试点,如今已推广到其国内所有门店。此处为关系词引导的非限制性定语从句,先行词为This grading method,指物,在从句中作主语,用关系代词which。故填which。
【43题详解】
考查代词。句意:这种标注方式最早在上海试点,如今已推广到其国内所有门店。此处修饰名词domestic stores,用it的形容词性物主代词its,意为“它的”。故填its。
【44题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:这种做法不仅体现了霸王茶姬对消费者需求的洞察,也帮助品牌更贴近消费者,打造出一种能让消费者产生归属感的生活方式。此处consumer need意为“消费者需求”,为可数名词,前面无冠词限定,用复数形式needs表泛指。故填needs。
【45题详解】
考查比较级。句意:这种做法不仅体现了霸王茶姬对消费者需求的洞察,也帮助品牌更贴近消费者,打造出一种能让消费者产生归属感的生活方式。此处暗含与过去的对比,用close的比较级closer,意为“更贴近的”。故填closer。

第二节(满分25分)
47. 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。
My friend Carole’s birthday was approaching and I wondered what to give her as a gift. I had two pots of beautiful flowers and I knew Carole liked flowers. However, the two pots of flowers were rare and I brought them from a forest very far away, which took me great effort. So, I hesitated.
There wasn’t a cloud in the sky on one warm June morning when Carol e and I started out for a day of shopping. We had learned of a quilt (被子) shop which had unique quilts created by skilled women from a nearby company. Carole’s heart was set on finding a blue- and- white quilt to put the finishing touch on her guest bedroom.
We parked the car next to the only traffic light in town, heading towards the quilt shop. But next door, a newly opened small store that sold pretty clothes, shoes, etc. attracted us. So we first walked into this store, where we admired the most wonderful collection of umbrella s we had ever seen. As I ran my fingers across one special umbrella, I heard myself whisper, “These are the most beautiful umbrellas...”I loved the items so much.
A sales clerk hurried to my side. “Perhaps you’d like to try one of them out,” she suggested. I opened the attractive umbrella. Underneath it, I felt wonderfully carefree and sheltered from the whole world. But with new things to buy, there was no money for expensive umbrellas. Besides, even if I could afford one, it wouldn’t be a practical purchase. Back in the second grade, I had once eyed a beautiful, pink umbrella in a department store window. “I need a beautiful umbrella,” I said to my mother. “No, you need a practical umbrella,” she said. “Besides, you might lose it.” With tears in my eyes, I put down that pink umbrella!
Coming back from my memory, I told the clerk, “Thanks for showing me the umbrella.” Then, I headed next door to the quilt shop, a few steps ahead of Carole.
注意:Ⅰ.续写词数应为150个左右;2.请按如下格式作答。
When her steps caught up with mine, I noticed a long, thin box under her arm.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Back home, I took the umbrella sent by Carole and walked towards my flowers.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】When her steps caught up with mine, I noticed a long, thin box under her arm. “What’s that?” I asked, curious. Carole smiled mysteriously and handed me the box. “Open it,” she said. Inside was the very umbrella I had admired in the store. “Happy early birthday!” Carole exclaimed. I was speechless. “But… how did you know?” I stammered. “I saw the way you looked at it,” she replied. “I wanted to give you something special, just like you always do for me.” Tears welled up in my eyes as I hugged her tightly. “Thank you, Carole. This means so much to me.”
Back home, I took the umbrella sent by Carole and walked towards my flowers. I realized that the joy of giving was far greater than the effort it took to obtain those flowers. With a smile, I carefully dug up one of the pots and placed it in a beautiful gift bag. The next day, I visited Carole and handed her the bag. “Happy birthday, Carole,” I said. Her eyes lit up as she saw the rare flowers. “These are beautiful! Thank you so much!” she exclaimed. As we sat together, admiring our gifts, I felt a deep sense of gratitude for our friendship and the simple joys it brought into our lives.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,作者在购物时被一把漂亮的伞吸引,但因为不实用而放弃购买。Carole注意到了这一点,并在作者不知情的情况下买下了伞作为生日礼物送给作者。作者深受感动,决定将自己珍贵的花送给Carole作为回报。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“当她的脚步赶上我的脚步时,我注意到她腋下夹着一个又长又细的盒子。”可知,第一段可描写作者打开盒子后的反应和心情
②由第二段首句内容“回到家,我拿着卡罗尔送的伞,走向我的花。”可知,第二段可描写作者给Carole送花的过程以及感悟。
2.续写线索:打开盒子——作者感动——送花——Carole很快乐——作者的感悟

Bali Wildlife Volunteer Program
ABOUT THE PROGRAM
Bali wildlife volunteers help to care for a variety of animal species. Volunteers help promote and improve the well-being of animals at the wildlife centre.
VOLUNTEER ROLE & TYPICAL WORKDAY
As a wildlife volunteer in Bali, you will rotate (轮换) across several of the projects and locations we work in, gaining a wide range of insights into the many ways volunteers can make an impact during their time on the program. While on the project, you will work alongside other staff members who have years of experience. Typical activities you will get involved in during your time as a volunteer in Bali Wildlife Centre include feeding, cleaning, daily care and so on.
REQUIREMENTS
To join the program, you need to be at least 15 years old and able to speak English at the intermediate (中级的) level. You should be physically fit, as volunteering overseas can be quite hard. If you have any health problems that may affect your participation, you must report them to us in your online application. As for the time commitment, volunteers are expected to work about 3-5hours per day from Monday to Thursday, and Friday is optional but is encouraged.
FREE TIME ACTIVITIES
Participants generally volunteer on a Monday-Thursday basis and on the weekends are free to relax or travel around. The wider travel opportunity is extremely important to the whole experience and it is something we certainly recommend. Our loal team is able to arrange free activities, transportation and accommodation but please note this is usually an independent experience outside of the core program.

Starting at the bookcases in my study, packed with so many great books that had remained unread, I heard a loud voice in my head— “How can you leave these masterpieces unread?”
The first book I picked up was Montaigne’s Essays. To my surprise, I discovered in the margins (页边空白) my own fixed hand-writing. So I was actually reading it again, but what I was rereading seemed entirely new. I also found sentences underlined. Only this time I wondered: Why did I underline this sentence? It’s the next one that is important!
Clearly, my view of reading had changed over the years. This raised the larger question of rereading, which comes in many forms. There’s voluntary rereading, the result of a willful decision to revisit a book one has admired, or to confirm certain details in the text. A devoted teacher might wish to refresh his understanding of a work, and thus avoid teaching through the same old written notes with soporific (令人昏昏欲睡的) effects.
Next, there’s involuntary rereading. The original reading was either forgotten or so totally absorbed that the new chance encounter with the text produced surprise and astonishment. My reaction to the renewed reading no longer felt like the original experience, and I was no longer sure that I recognized myself as the same reader.
Then there are what one might call subconscious (潜意识的) rereadings, those that happen without reading—much like recalling a song without actually being heard again. This remembered connection to books stays with us for life, shaping and strengthening us. We may over the years recite to ourselves poems learnt by heart long ago, which have become part of our self-recognition.
All of these ways of reading are valuable. The “new” reading, a form of revision, uncovers the change in us. The newness is not in the text. Rereading makes it possible for us to see the world around us, ourselves included, in a new light.
4. What did the author find when reading Montaigne’s Essays?
A. He couldn’t understand it. B. It was his favorite work.
C. He had made notes in it. D. It was a brand-new copy.
5. What could be a purpose of voluntary rereading for a teacher?
A To learn from admirable characters. B. To improve the quality of teaching.
C. To collect details for writing novels. D. To help make important decisions.
6. What can involuntary rereading bring about?
A. Better reading skills. B. Original preference for books.
C. Faster reading speed. D. Unexpected reading experience.
7. What can be learnt about subconscious rereading?
A. It helps make who we are. B. It prevents memory from fading.
C. It involves actual reading. D. It works best with poetry and music.

Hiromu Yakura, a postdoctoral researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Human Development, first became aware of differences in his own vocabulary about a year after ChatGPT came out. Researchers had previously found that use of large language models (LLMs), such as those that power ChatGPT, was changing vocabulary choices in written communication, and Yakura and his colleagues wanted to know whether spoken communication was being affected, too.
Researchers first used ChatGPT to edit large amounts of text like emails and articles using instructions such as “polish” or “improve clarity.” They identified words ChatGPT added frequently, like “delve,” labeling these GPT words. Next, the team analyzed over 360,000 YouTube videos and 770,000 podcast (播客) episodes from before and after ChatGPT’s release to track the use of GPT words over time. They compared the GPT words with “synthetic (合成) controls,” which were formed by mathematically weighting synonyms (同义词) that weren’t frequently used by the chatbot-such synonyms for “delve,” for example, could include “examine” and “explore.”
The team’s results show a significant rise in GPT words in the 18 months after ChatGPT’s release. The words didn’t just appear in formal, scripted videos or podcast episodes; they were peppered into natural conversation, too. “The patterns stored in AI technology seem to be sending back to the human mind,” notes co-author Levin Brinkmann, describing a cultural feedback cycle: humans train AI on text, AI returns statistically remixed versions, and then people unconsciously adopt its patterns. “It’s natural for humans to imitate one another, but we’re more likely to copy what someone else is doing if we perceive them as being knowledgeable or important,”
Brinkmann says. As more people look to AI as a cultural authority, they may rely on and imitate it over other sources, resulting in a likeness of language styles and expressions.
Tracking LLMs’ cultural impact is critical, according to the University of Chicago expert James Evans. “In this moment in the evolution (进化) of LLMs, looking at word distribution is the right methodology to understand how the technology is affecting the way we communicate,” he says, “But as the models mature, these distributions are going to be harder to distinguish.” Scientists may need to look at broader linguistic trends beyond word choice, such as sentence structure and how ideas are presented.
8. What made Yakura begin the new research?
A. Desire to explore potentials of LLMs.
B. Changes in personal vocabulary choices.
C. Previous research on written communication.
D. Dissatisfaction over poor performance of ChatGPT.
9. Why were the GPT words tracked in the research?
A. To show how diverse they are.
B. To measure their influence on language.
C. To check if they work in various contexts.
D. To compare them with human word choices.
10. Brinkmann mentions the trend of the cultural feedback cycle to illustrate ________.
A. it provides a different approach to learning
B. it results in misjudgment of cultural authorities
C. it is a natural part of technological development
D. it carries a hidden risk to the richness of language
11. What is suggested in the last paragraph?
A. A notable increase in sample size.
B. A probable shift in the future research focus.
C A timely application of the research findings.
D. A thorough evaluation of the current research.
D
Every morning when the alarm goes off, many people face a hard choice: to snooze (打盹) or not to snooze? If you happen to be an iPhone user, you may have wondered why the snooze button gives you exactly nine minutes. This number is not a casual choice as it is tied to historical design and human sleep science.
The nine-minute snooze period is not unique to the iPhone. In the mid-20th century, when mechanical (机械的) alarm clocks were the main type on the market, a leading producer introduced a snooze alarm. However, the standard gears of mechanical clocks made it difficult to set a double-digit snooze period. Engineers eventually settled on nine minutes, the largest possible single-digit (个位数的), to avoid the need to redesign the clock’s mechanism. Apple might have taken the nine-minute snooze to honor this early invention.
From a physiological point of view, a nine-minute period is practical. Our bodies start to fall into the second stage of a sleep cycle about 10 minutes after falling asleep. Therefore, a snooze period of nine minutes allows for less sudden awakening as it helps avoid a deeper stage of sleep. This timing can also reduce sleepiness and make it slightly easier to wake up when the alarm rings again.
The debate over whether snoozing is helpful or harmful continues among sleep experts. Some research suggests that snoozing provides enough time for the body and brain to shift gradually from sleep to wakefulness. On the other hand, other studies argue that while hitting the snooze button might give you a brief feeling of extra rest, it fragments your sleep and makes you more tired than if you wake up with the first alarm. Continuous, undisturbed sleep is generally better for mental abilities and overall health. Finally, understanding your own sleep patterns can help you make the decision between whether to keep hitting the snooze button or embrace the cruel reality of the first alarm.
12. Why was a nine-minute snooze time chosen for mechanical alarm clocks?
A. To show respect to the early design. B. To follow the trend of other clock producers.
C. To match the principles of human sleep science. D. To avoid the change of the clock’s inner structure.
13. What does the underlined word “fragment” in the last paragraph mean?
A. worsen B. break C. shorten D. delay
14. What does the author suggest at the end of the passage?
A. Keep hitting the snooze button to get extra rest.
B. Make a choice by considering your own sleep habits.
C. Ignore the snoozing effect and follow your sleep patterns.
D. Consider both positive and negative effects of snoozing before deciding.
15. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. Nine Minutes of Extra Rest or Nine Minutes of Regret?
B. Is the Nine-Minute snooze Beneficial to Our Sleep Routine?
C. Why is the Snooze Button an Important Feature of Alarm Clocks?
D. How Does the Snooze Button Work to Influence Our Sleep Quality?

47. 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。
My friend Carole’s birthday was approaching and I wondered what to give her as a gift. I had two pots of beautiful flowers and I knew Carole liked flowers. However, the two pots of flowers were rare and I brought them from a forest very far away, which took me great effort. So, I hesitated.
There wasn’t a cloud in the sky on one warm June morning when Carol e and I started out for a day of shopping. We had learned of a quilt (被子) shop which had unique quilts created by skilled women from a nearby company. Carole’s heart was set on finding a blue- and- white quilt to put the finishing touch on her guest bedroom.
We parked the car next to the only traffic light in town, heading towards the quilt shop. But next door, a newly opened small store that sold pretty clothes, shoes, etc. attracted us. So we first walked into this store, where we admired the most wonderful collection of umbrella s we had ever seen. As I ran my fingers across one special umbrella, I heard myself whisper, “These are the most beautiful umbrellas...”I loved the items so much.
A sales clerk hurried to my side. “Perhaps you’d like to try one of them out” she suggested. I opened the attractive umbrella. Underneath it, I felt wonderfully carefree and sheltered from the whole world. But with new things to buy, there was no money for expensive umbrellas. Besides, even if I could afford one, it wouldn’t be a practical purchase. Back in the second grade, I had once eyed a beautiful, pink umbrella in a department store window. “I need a beautiful umbrella,” I said to my mother. “No, you need a practical umbrella,” she said. “Besides, you might lose it.” With tears in my eyes, I put down that pink umbrella!
Coming back from my memory, I told the clerk, “Thanks for showing me the umbrella.” Then, I headed next door to the quilt shop, a few steps ahead of Carole.
注意:Ⅰ.续写词数应为150个左右;2.请按如下格式作答。
When her steps caught up with mine, I noticed a long, thin box under her arm.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Back home, I took the umbrella sent by Carole and walked towards my flowers.
