第二部分 阅读(共两节,满分50分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Global temperatures are on the rise — up by 1.1 degrees Celsius since the preindustrial era and expected to continue inching higher — with terrible consequences for people and wildlife such as intense floods and heat waves. To prevent disaster, experts urge to restrict temperature rise to 1.5 degrees, which would mean cutting greenhouse gas emissions (排放), by 2050, to net zero — when the amount of greenhouse gases emitted into the atmosphere equals the amount that’s removed.
More than 800 cities around the world, from Mumbai to Denver, have promised to halve their carbon emissions by 2030 and to reach net zero by 2050. These are crucial contributions, because cities are responsible for 71 percent to 76 percent of global carbon dioxide (二氧化物) emissions due to buildings, transportation, heating, cooling and more. And the proportion of people living in cities is projected to increase, such that an estimated 68 percent of the world’s population will be city dwellers by 2050.
“Urban areas play a vital role in climate change mitigation (缓解) due to the long lifespans of buildings and transportation infrastructures (基础设施),” write the authors of a 2021 article on net-zero cities in the Annual Review of Environment and Resources. Are cities built tightly, or do they sprawl? Do citizens drive everywhere in private cars, or do they use efficient, green public transportation? How do they heat their homes or cook their food? Such factors profoundly affect a city’s carbon emissions.
Anu Ramaswami, a professor of civil and environmental engineering and India studies at Princeton University, has decades of experience in the area of urban infrastructure — buildings, transport, energy, water, waste management and green infrastructure — and has helped cities in the United States, China and India plan for urban sustainability. For cities to get to net zero, she tells Knowable, the changes must touch many aspects of city life. Achieving net-zero demands requires three key strategies, as outlined below:
Key mitigation strategies
Pathway
Reduce demand
Integrated spatial planning
Single-sector efficiency and conservation
Cross-sector urban industrial symbiosis (共生)
Switch supply
Decarbonize electricity
Electrify heating and mobility
Carbon valorization (碳增值)
Enhance carbon absorption
Enhance carbon absorption and stocks
21. What’s the key requirement to limit global temperature rise to 1.5 degrees?
A. Reducing urban population growth.
B. Making cities more thickly built.
C. Achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050.
D. Getting rid of extreme weather events completely.
22. Why do cities’ contributions matter for reaching net-zero emissions?
A. Cities possess advanced emission reduction technologies.
B. Cities cause the majority of global carbon dioxide emissions.
C The population in cities is larger than that in rural areas.
D. Urban infrastructure is easy to upgrade for sustainability.
23. What does Anu Ramaswami suggest for cities’ net-zero emissions?
A. Changes should cover different parts of urban life.
B. It should be realized by improving public transportation alone.
C. It should depend on reducing the lifespan of urban infrastructure.
D. Carbon absorption is the key mitigation strategy.
B
Last September, I drove to a protected wetland near my home in Oakland, California. It was the first time that I had gone somewhere merely to watch birds. Since this unique journey, I’ve seen 452 species, including 307 this year alone.
In some birding circles, people claim anyone who looks at birds is a birder. I’ve cared about birds and other animals for my entire life, and I’ve written about them throughout my two decades as a science writer, but I mark the moment when I specifically chose to devote time and energy to them as the moment I became a birder.
Birding has significantly increased the time spent outdoors. It has motivated me to explore Oakland in ways I never would have. While birding, I seem impervious to heat, cold, hunger and thirst. My senses focus only on the present, and my head becomes extremely untroubled. I also feel a much deeper connection to the natural world, which I have long written about but always remained slightly distant from.
These recent years have taught me that I’m smaller when I’m not actively looking after myself, that I have value for my world and my community beyond ceaseless production, and that pursuits like birding that encourage joy, wonder and bond with places are not sidebars to a fulfilled life but the essence.
It’s easy to perceive birding as something you do when you’re not working, not being productive, and even an escape from reality. Instead, for me, birding means absorbing myself in the present moment: my thoughts quiet, my senses heightened, and I respond to real, observable events in nature with focused awareness without being distracted (使分心) by small, unimportant matters. I don’t need to know who the main characters are on social media and what everyone is commenting on them, when I can instead spend an hour trying to locate a rare bird.
24. Why did the author think the journey to the wetland special?
A. He protected bird species there. B. He fell in love with birding again.
C. He made his true start as a birder. D. He completed his writing during it.
25. What does the underlined word “impervious” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Attentive. B. Subject. C. Resistant. D. Sensitive.
26. What lesson does the author probably learn?
A. Outdoor pursuits are a must-have. B. Self-care can help fuel self-worth.
C. Happiness serves as the core of life. D. Productivity defines personal value.
27. How does the author view birding according to the last paragraph?
A. A complete engagement with reality. B. A temporary escape from busy life.
C. A training in focus and observation. D. A substitute for online activities.
C
Relationships are messy, whether you are an adult with lots of experience or a kid navigating through tough times with a best friend, boyfriend or girlfriend. You can’t predict moods, interests or desires. For teens learning the ins and outs of relationships for the first time, disagreements, fights and breakups can be ruinous. But what if your teen’s best friend wasn’t actually human? It may seem far-fetched, but it’s not. A new report from Common Sense Media says that 72 percent of teens surveyed have used AI companions, and 33 percent have relationships or friendships with these chatbots.
The language that AI companions use, the responses they make, and the empathy they exude (流露) can make a user feel as though they truly understand and sympathize. These chatbots can make someone feel liked or even loved. They are programmed to help users feel like they’ve made a real connection. This may be puzzling to some parents, but if your child is navigating the complex worlds of technology, social media and artificial intelligence, the likelihood that they will be curious about an AI companion is pretty high. Here are some things that you must know.
You might think your kid won’t get attached and that they will know the chatbots are an algorithm (算法) designed to give immediate responses based on the text inputs they receive, which is not real. But a fascinating Stanford University study of students who use the app Replika found that 81 percent considered their AI companion has “intelligence”, and 90 percent thought it “human-like”.
On the plus side, these companions are sometimes touted (吹捧) for their supportiveness and promotion of mental health; the Stanford study even found that 3 percent of users felt their Replika had directly helped them avoid suicide. If you’re a teenager who is isolated or struggling to make friends, an AI companion can provide much-needed companionship. They may offer practice when it comes to building conversational and social skills. Chatbots can offer helpful information and tips. But are they safe?
A Florida mother has accused the company that owns Character. AI, claiming the chatbot encouraged her 14-year-old son to attempt suicide. Another suit filed in 2024 claims that the same chatbot encourages self-harm in teens and violence towards parents who try to set limits on how often kids use the app. Then there’s privacy: AI companions are a “privacy horror”, with data trackers that may encourage negative or harmful behaviors.
Given what we know about teens, screens and mental health, online influences are sometimes powerful, largely unavoidable, and potentially life-changing for children and families.
28. What motivates teenagers to use AI companions?
A. To stay away from all conflicts in real relationships.
B. To attain the feeling of being truly comprehended.
C. To predict a robot’s emotions interests and desires.
D To explore how AI can take the place of human friends.
29. What did the Stanford University study find?
A. Most teens tended to develop an attachment to AI companions.
B. Replika was widely used by teens for emotional support.
C. Most teens fully knew AI companions were related to algorithms.
D. AI companions could effectively improve teens’ social skills.
30. What is the author’s attitude towards AI companions?
A. Negative. B. Indifferent.
C. Objective. D. Skeptical.
31. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A. The Hidden Dangers of AI Companions for Teens.
B. Teen Relationship: A Hard Nut to Crack.
C. Approaches to Helping Teens Use AI Companions Safer.
D. AI Companions: Teens’ Alternatives to Real Relationships.
D
It is widely acknowledged that crows are highly intelligent with cognitive abilities similar to those of 5-to 7-year-old children. Past research shows that they can count to four and distinguish human voices and faces, and some species can even create tools for future use. Lately, a special study has expanded this list further, revealing that crows can recognize basic geometric features, such as side lengths, parallel lines, and right angles, and tell apart shapes like stars, crescents, squares, and irregular four-sided figures.
With the purpose of testing the crows’ geometric skills, scientists showed two crows six shapes on a digital screen and trained them to peck (啄) at the outlier—the shape that looked different from the rest. When the birds chose correctly, they were rewarded with a tasty snack. At first, the researchers made the outlier obvious, such as one flower among five crescents. As the birds got used to the task, the shapes became more similar including squares and irregular four- sided figures. Despite the increasing difficulty, the crows continued to identify the outlier correctly.
The shape recognition ability of crows remains a topic of interest for researchers. They suspect this ability may help them with navigation as they fly around. The birds may have also developed this ability to help them search for food or identify other individual crows — including potential mates — based on their facial features. “All these abilities, at the end of the day, from a biological point of view, have evolved because they provide a survival advantage or a reproductive advantage,” says study senior author Andreas Nieder, a neurophysiologist at the University of Tübingen in Germany.
In the future, researchers hope to explore which areas of the birds’ brains are responsible for their exceptional ability in geometry. Birds don’t have a cerebral cortex (大脑皮层)—at least, not in the same way that humans do. But for us, that part of the brain is responsible for thinking and other complex functions. Crows still have these abilities, so the researchers assume there must be something else going on inside their heads. “Obviously, evolution found two different ways of giving rise to behaviorally flexible animals,” Nieder says.
32. What does the recent study reveal about crows?
A. They can draw simple figures with tools.
B. They can distinguish between basic shapes in geometry.
C. They can do easy math calculations.
D. They can recognize human voices and faces.
33. How did the researchers increase the difficulty of the shape- recognition task?
A. By shortening the time for the crows to respond.
B. By presenting more familiar shapes on the screen.
C. By showing the figures with different colors.
D. By enhancing the similarity among the shapes.
34. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The role of crows’ geometric potential in navigation.
B. Reasons for crows to evolve shape identification abilities.
C. Survival benefits of crows’ cognitive talents.
D. The advantages of crows’ food-searching skills over other birds.
35. What is the follow-up step for future study?
A. Investigating crows’ brain areas related to geometric skills.
B. Comparing the cerebral cortex of humans and crows.
C. Exploring other complex functions of crows’ brains.
D. Studying the causes of crows’ flexible behaviors.

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。
Sustainable packaging has become a buzzword in recent years. From paper-based materials to biodegradable alternatives, the shift away from traditional plastics appears to be a step in the right direction. ____36____
One of the most popular alternatives to plastics is paper- based packaging. The logic appears sound. ____37____ However, the environmental cost of paper production is often overlooked. Compared to plastic, producing paper packaging requires significantly more energy and water. A study highlighted that paper bags require at least four times more energy to manufacture than plastic bags.
____38____ While many brands claim to use responsibly sourced or recycled paper, the global demand for paper packaging still places immense pressure on forests. This pressure will cause too much tree cutting and habitat loss, harming wildlife. And the loss of trees will reduce the planet’s ability to absorb carbon dioxide.
Moreover, paper-based packaging is usually heavier than plastic packaging. ____39____For instance, trucks carrying paper packages use more fuel, increasing emissions. This extra weight also makes logistics (物流) more challenging.
Therefore, the full life cycle of paper packaging shows its eco-benefits aren’t as clear as they seem.____40____This means focusing on reducing waste first, making better waste management systems, and using sustainable materials in the best way. Only by doing all these things together can we cut down on environmental harm.
A. This can make transportation less efficient.
B. However, beneath the surface lies a more complex reality.
C. Therefore, many brands now use paper-based packaging.
D. Its production requires four times the energy of plastic bags.
E. The destruction of forests linked to the paper industry is another concern.
F. To achieve sustainable packaging completely, we need a well-rounded approach.
G. Paper is biodegradable, recyclable, and can be obtained from renewable resources.

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Li Wei, a high school senior, had always felt confused between her mother’s expectation and her own dream. Her mother, a traditional Chinese medicine doctor, ran a small clinic in their town. The air inside was always filled with the earthy smell of dried herbs. Her mother had long hoped Li Wei would take over the family business. “A career in medicine is a good choice, and it connects us to our roots,” her mother often said, pointing to the old books lining on the shelves.
But Li Wei’ s heart belonged to classical dance. She spent hours practicing in secret, and her room was full of posters of international dance groups. One evening, while helping her mother prepare herbs, Li Wei accidentally knocked over a jar of ginseng (人参). As she hurried to clean up, her mother’s voice cut through the silence, “You’ re too distracted. This is why you can’t focus on your studies— and the clinic.”
Li Wei’ s cheeks turned red. “I don’ t want to be a doctor!” she shouted. “I want to dance!” Before her mother could answer, Li Wei grabbed her bag and ran out, leaving the clinic door moving.
Weeks passed, and the tension between them reached boiling point. Li Wei avoided the clinic, spending long hours at dance practices even though her knees had become swollen and red. When she did come home, the house was full of cold silence, broken only by the occasional noise of her mother’s tool grinding (研磨) herbs. But Li Wei couldn’t miss the way her mother’s eyes looked at her dance shoes, or the soft sighs that came from her during their rare talks. She was eager for her mother’s support.
Then came a big chance: a national dance competition. Li Wei’ s hands shook as she filled out the application form, her heart beating fast. But when she looked at the bottom of the page, she felt scared. The form needed a parent’s signature, a sad reminder of the gap between her and her mother.
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。
That evening, Li Wei arrived at the clinic, with the application form in hand.

Before stepping onto stage, Li Wei held her mother’s lucky sachet (香囊) in her pocket.

第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Global temperatures are on the rise — up by 1.1 degrees Celsius since the preindustrial era and expected to continue inching higher — with terrible consequences for people and wildlife such as intense floods and heat waves. To prevent disaster, experts urge to restrict temperature rise to 1.5 degrees, which would mean cutting greenhouse gas emissions (排放), by 2050, to net zero — when the amount of greenhouse gases emitted into the atmosphere equals the amount that’s removed.
More than 800 cities around the world, from Mumbai to Denver, have promised to halve their carbon emissions by 2030 and to reach net zero by 2050. These are crucial contributions, because cities are responsible for 71 percent to 76 percent of global carbon dioxide (二氧化物) emissions due to buildings, transportation, heating, cooling and more. And the proportion of people living in cities is projected to increase, such that an estimated 68 percent of the world’s population will be city dwellers by 2050.
“Urban areas play a vital role in climate change mitigation (缓解) due to the long lifespans of buildings and transportation infrastructures (基础设施),” write the authors of a 2021 article on net-zero cities in the Annual Review of Environment and Resources. Are cities built tightly, or do they sprawl? Do citizens drive everywhere in private cars, or do they use efficient, green public transportation? How do they heat their homes or cook their food? Such factors profoundly affect a city’s carbon emissions.
Anu Ramaswami, a professor of civil and environmental engineering and India studies at Princeton University, has decades of experience in the area of urban infrastructure — buildings, transport, energy, water, waste management and green infrastructure — and has helped cities in the United States, China and India plan for urban sustainability. For cities to get to net zero, she tells Knowable, the changes must touch many aspects of city life. Achieving net-zero demands requires three key strategies, as outlined below:
Key mitigation strategies
Pathway
Reduce demand
Integrated spatial planning
Single-sector efficiency and conservation
Cross-sector urban industrial symbiosis (共生)
Switch supply
Decarbonize electricity
Electrify heating and mobility
Carbon valorization (碳增值)
Enhance carbon absorption
Enhance carbon absorption and stocks
21. What’s the key requirement to limit global temperature rise to 1.5 degrees?
A. Reducing urban population growth.
B. Making cities more thickly built.
C. Achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050.
D. Getting rid of extreme weather events completely.
22. Why do cities’ contributions matter for reaching net-zero emissions?
A. Cities possess advanced emission reduction technologies.
B. Cities cause the majority of global carbon dioxide emissions.
C. The population in cities is larger than that in rural areas.
D. Urban infrastructure is easy to upgrade for sustainability.
23. What does Anu Ramaswami suggest for cities’ net-zero emissions?
A. Changes should cover different parts of urban life.
B. It should be realized by improving public transportation alone.
C. It should depend on reducing the lifespan of urban infrastructure.
D. Carbon absorption is the key mitigation strategy.
【答案】21. C 22. B 23. A

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍全球升温的影响,限制升温至1.5度需2050年实现温室气体净零排放,城市在减排中起关键作用及相关策略。
【21题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“To prevent disaster, experts urge to restrict temperature rise to 1.5 degrees, which would mean cutting greenhouse gas emissions, by 2050, to net zero — when the amount of greenhouse gases emitted into the atmosphere equals the amount that’s removed.(为避免灾难,专家呼吁将升温限制在1.5度,这意味着到2050年将温室气体排放降至净零——即排入大气的温室气体量与移除量相等。)”可知,将全球升温限制在1.5度的关键要求是2050年实现温室气体净零排放。故选C项。
【22题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“These are crucial contributions, because cities are responsible for 71 percent to 76 percent of global carbon dioxide emissions due to buildings, transportation, heating, cooling and more.(这些贡献至关重要,因为城市因建筑、交通、供暖、制冷等因素,贡献了全球71%至76%的二氧化碳排放。)”可知,城市的贡献很重要是因为其产生了全球大部分的二氧化碳排放。故选B项。
【23题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“For cities to get to net zero, she tells Knowable, the changes must touch many aspects of city life.(她告诉Knowable,城市要实现净零排放,变革必须涉及城市生活的多个方面。)”可知,Anu Ramaswami认为城市实现净零排放的变革应覆盖城市生活的不同领域。故选A项。
B
Last September, I drove to a protected wetland near my home in Oakland, California. It was the first time that I had gone somewhere merely to watch birds. Since this unique journey, I’ve seen 452 species, including 307 this year alone.
In some birding circles, people claim anyone who looks at birds is a birder. I’ve cared about birds and other animals for my entire life, and I’ve written about them throughout my two decades as a science writer, but I mark the moment when I specifically chose to devote time and energy to them as the moment I became a birder.
Birding has significantly increased the time spent outdoors. It has motivated me to explore Oakland in ways I never would have. While birding, I seem impervious to heat, cold, hunger and thirst. My senses focus only on the present, and my head becomes extremely untroubled. I also feel a much deeper connection to the natural world, which I have long written about but always remained slightly distant from.
These recent years have taught me that I’m smaller when I’m not actively looking after myself, that I have value for my world and my community beyond ceaseless production, and that pursuits like birding that encourage joy, wonder and bond with places are not sidebars to a fulfilled life but the essence.
It’s easy to perceive birding as something you do when you’re not working, not being productive, and even an escape from reality. Instead, for me, birding means absorbing myself in the present moment: my thoughts quiet, my senses heightened, and I respond to real, observable events in nature with focused awareness without being distracted (使分心) by small, unimportant matters. I don’t need to know who the main characters are on social media and what everyone is commenting on them, when I can instead spend an hour trying to locate a rare bird.
24. Why did the author think the journey to the wetland special?
A. He protected bird species there. B. He fell in love with birding again.
C. He made his true start as a birder. D. He completed his writing during it.
25. What does the underlined word “impervious” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Attentive. B. Subject. C. Resistant. D. Sensitive.
26. What lesson does the author probably learn?
A. Outdoor pursuits are a must-have. B. Self-care can help fuel self-worth.
C. Happiness serves as the core of life. D. Productivity defines personal value.
27. How does the author view birding according to the last paragraph?
A. A complete engagement with reality. B. A temporary escape from busy life.
C. A training in focus and observation. D. A substitute for online activities.
【答案】24. C 25. C 26. C 27. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文,讲述了作者去年九月一次偶然的观鸟之旅让他正式成为观鸟者,此后观鸟不仅增加了他的户外时间、让他更亲近自然,还让他领悟到生活的本质,重新认识了观鸟的意义。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“It was the first time that I had gone somewhere merely to watch birds. Since this unique journey, I’ve seen 452 species, including 307 this year alone. (这是我第一次专门去某个地方观鸟。自从这次特别的旅行后,我已经见过452种鸟类,仅今年就有307种)”及第二段“I’ve cared about birds and other animals for my entire life, and I’ve written about them throughout my two decades as a science writer, but I mark the moment when I specifically chose to devote time and energy to them as the moment I became a birder. (我一生都在关心鸟类和其他动物,在我作为一名科学作家的二十年里,我一直在写关于它们的文章,但我把我特别选择为它们投入时间和精力的那一刻标记为我成为观鸟者的那一时刻)”可知,作者认为这次湿地之旅特别,是因为它让自己真正开启了观鸟者的身份。故选C。
【25题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第三段“While birding, I seem impervious to heat, cold, hunger and thirst. My senses focus only on the present, and my head becomes extremely untroubled (观鸟时,我似乎对冷热饥渴都impervious。我的感官只专注于当下,内心变得异常平静)”可知,观鸟时作者专注于当下,不受冷热饥渴的影响,因此“impervious”意为“抵抗的、不受影响的”。故选C。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“These recent years have taught me that I'm smaller when I'm not actively looking after myself, that I have value for my world and my community beyond ceaseless production, and that pursuits like birding that encourage joy, wonder and bond with places are not sidebars to a fulfilled life but the essence (这些年我明白了,当我不积极关爱自己时,我会变得渺小;除了无休止的工作产出,我对自己的世界和社区也有价值;而像观鸟这样能带来喜悦、惊奇并与周遭建立联结的追求,并非充实生活的点缀,而是其本质)”可知,作者领悟到能带来快乐的追求是生活的核心,即幸福是生活的核心。故选C。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Instead, for me, birding means absorbing myself in the present moment: my thoughts quiet, my senses heightened, and I respond to real, observable events in nature with focused awareness without being distracted by small, unimportant matters (相反,对我来说,观鸟意味着全身心投入当下:思绪沉静,感官敏锐,我以专注的意识回应自然界中真实可观察的事物,不会被琐碎小事分心)”可知,作者认为观鸟是对现实的全身心投入。故选A。
C
Relationships are messy, whether you are an adult with lots of experience or a kid navigating through tough times with a best friend, boyfriend or girlfriend. You can’t predict moods, interests or desires. For teens learning the ins and outs of relationships for the first time, disagreements, fights and breakups can be ruinous. But what if your teen’s best friend wasn’t actually human? It may seem far-fetched, but it’s not. A new report from Common Sense Media says that 72 percent of teens surveyed have used AI companions, and 33 percent have relationships or friendships with these chatbots.
The language that AI companions use, the responses they make, and the empathy they exude (流露) can make a user feel as though they truly understand and sympathize. These chatbots can make someone feel liked or even loved. They are programmed to help users feel like they’ve made a real connection. This may be puzzling to some parents, but if your child is navigating the complex worlds of technology, social media and artificial intelligence, the likelihood that they will be curious about an AI companion is pretty high. Here are some things that you must know.
You might think your kid won’t get attached and that they will know the chatbots are an algorithm (算法) designed to give immediate responses based on the text inputs they receive, which is not real. But a fascinating Stanford University study of students who use the app Replika found that 81 percent considered their AI companion has “intelligence”, and 90 percent thought it “human-like”.
On the plus side, these companions are sometimes touted (吹捧) for their supportiveness and promotion of mental health; the Stanford study even found that 3 percent of users felt their Replika had directly helped them avoid suicide. If you’re a teenager who is isolated or struggling to make friends, an AI companion can provide much-needed companionship. They may offer practice when it comes to building conversational and social skills. Chatbots can offer helpful information and tips. But are they safe?
A Florida mother has accused the company that owns Character. AI, claiming the chatbot encouraged her 14-year-old son to attempt suicide. Another suit filed in 2024 claims that the same chatbot encourages self-harm in teens and violence towards parents who try to set limits on how often kids use the app. Then there’s privacy: AI companions are a “privacy horror”, with data trackers that may encourage negative or harmful behaviors.
Given what we know about teens, screens and mental health, online influences are sometimes powerful, largely unavoidable, and potentially life-changing for children and families.
28. What motivates teenagers to use AI companions?
A. To stay away from all conflicts in real relationships.
B. To attain the feeling of being truly comprehended.
C. To predict a robot’s emotions, interests and desires.
D. To explore how AI can take the place of human friends.
29. What did the Stanford University study find?
A. Most teens tended to develop an attachment to AI companions.
B. Replika was widely used by teens for emotional support.
C. Most teens fully knew AI companions were related to algorithms.
D. AI companions could effectively improve teens’ social skills.
30. What is the author’s attitude towards AI companions?
A. Negative. B. Indifferent.
C. Objective. D. Skeptical.
31. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A. The Hidden Dangers of AI Companions for Teens.
B. Teen Relationship: A Hard Nut to Crack.
C. Approaches to Helping Teens Use AI Companions Safer.
D. AI Companions: Teens’ Alternatives to Real Relationships.

It is widely acknowledged that crows are highly intelligent with cognitive abilities similar to those of 5-to 7-year-old children. Past research shows that they can count to four and distinguish human voices and faces, and some species can even create tools for future use. Lately, a special study has expanded this list further, revealing that crows can recognize basic geometric features, such as side lengths, parallel lines, and right angles, and tell apart shapes like stars, crescents, squares, and irregular four-sided figures.
With the purpose of testing the crows’ geometric skills, scientists showed two crows six shapes on a digital screen and trained them to peck (啄) at the outlier—the shape that looked different from the rest. When the birds chose correctly, they were rewarded with a tasty snack. At first, the researchers made the outlier obvious, such as one flower among five crescents. As the birds got used to the task, the shapes became more similar including squares and irregular four- sided figures. Despite the increasing difficulty, the crows continued to identify the outlier correctly.
The shape recognition ability of crows remains a topic of interest for researchers. They suspect this ability may help them with navigation as they fly around. The birds may have also developed this ability to help them search for food or identify other individual crows — including potential mates — based on their facial features. “All these abilities, at the end of the day, from a biological point of view, have evolved because they provide a survival advantage or a reproductive advantage,” says study senior author Andreas Nieder, a neurophysiologist at the University of Tübingen in Germany.
In the future, researchers hope to explore which areas of the birds’ brains are responsible for their exceptional ability in geometry. Birds don’t have a cerebral cortex (大脑皮层)—at least, not in the same way that humans do. But for us, that part of the brain is responsible for thinking and other complex functions. Crows still have these abilities, so the researchers assume there must be something else going on inside their heads. “Obviously, evolution found two different ways of giving rise to behaviorally flexible animals,” Nieder says.
32. What does the recent study reveal about crows?
A. They can draw simple figures with tools.
B. They can distinguish between basic shapes in geometry.
C. They can do easy math calculations.
D. They can recognize human voices and faces.
33. How did the researchers increase the difficulty of the shape- recognition task?
A. By shortening the time for the crows to respond.
B. By presenting more familiar shapes on the screen.
C. By showing the figures with different colors.
D. By enhancing the similarity among the shapes.
34. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The role of crows’ geometric potential in navigation.
B. Reasons for crows to evolve shape identification abilities.
C. Survival benefits of crows’ cognitive talents.
D. The advantages of crows’ food-searching skills over other birds.
35. What is the follow-up step for future study?
A. Investigating crows’ brain areas related to geometric skills.
B. Comparing the cerebral cortex of humans and crows.
C Exploring other complex functions of crows’ brains.
D. Studying the causes of crows’ flexible behaviors.

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。
Sustainable packaging has become a buzzword in recent years. From paper-based materials to biodegradable alternatives, the shift away from traditional plastics appears to be a step in the right direction. ____36____
One of the most popular alternatives to plastics is paper- based packaging. The logic appears sound. ____37____ However, the environmental cost of paper production is often overlooked. Compared to plastic, producing paper packaging requires significantly more energy and water. A study highlighted that paper bags require at least four times more energy to manufacture than plastic bags.
____38____ While many brands claim to use responsibly sourced or recycled paper, the global demand for paper packaging still places immense pressure on forests. This pressure will cause too much tree cutting and habitat loss, harming wildlife. And the loss of trees will reduce the planet’s ability to absorb carbon dioxide.
Moreover, paper-based packaging is usually heavier than plastic packaging. ____39____For instance, trucks carrying paper packages use more fuel, increasing emissions. This extra weight also makes logistics (物流) more challenging.
Therefore, the full life cycle of paper packaging shows its eco-benefits aren’t as clear as they seem.____40____This means focusing on reducing waste first, making better waste management systems, and using sustainable materials in the best way. Only by doing all these things together can we cut down on environmental harm.
A. This can make transportation less efficient.
B. However, beneath the surface lies a more complex reality.
C. Therefore, many brands now use paper-based packaging.
D. Its production requires four times the energy of plastic bags.
E. The destruction of forests linked to the paper industry is another concern.
F. To achieve sustainable packaging completely, we need a well-rounded approach.
G. Paper is biodegradable, recyclable, and can be obtained from renewable resources.

【61题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意:抹茶的饮用起源于古代中国,后来被引入日本。The drinking of matcha与introduce之间是被动关系,即“饮用抹茶被引入日本”,且事情发生在过去,所以用一般过去时的被动语态。故填was introduced。
【62题详解】
考查时态。句意:截至今年,仅江口县就向日本出口了四吨抹茶,另有六吨计划于近期发货。So far表示“到目前为止”,是现在完成时的标志词,现在完成时的结构是“have/ has+过去分词”,主语Jiangkou是单数,所以用has。 故填has exported。
【63题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:截至今年,仅江口县就向日本出口了四吨抹茶,另有六吨计划于近期发货。此处是 with的复合结构, schedule与 six tones 之间为被动关系,所以用过去分词作宾语补足语。故填scheduled。
【64题详解】
考查连词。句意:随着抹茶产品的日益流行,年轻消费者对其深厚文化的兴趣也与日俱增。此处 as引导时间状语从句,表示“随着……”,位于句首,首字母需大写。 故填As。

Li Wei, a high school senior, had always felt confused between her mother’s expectation and her own dream. Her mother, a traditional Chinese medicine doctor, ran a small clinic in their town. The air inside was always filled with the earthy smell of dried herbs. Her mother had long hoped Li Wei would take over the family business. “A career in medicine is a good choice, and it connects us to our roots,” her mother often said, pointing to the old books lining on the shelves.
But Li Wei’ s heart belonged to classical dance. She spent hours practicing in secret, and her room was full of posters of international dance groups. One evening, while helping her mother prepare herbs, Li Wei accidentally knocked over a jar of ginseng (人参). As she hurried to clean up, her mother’s voice cut through the silence, “You’ re too distracted. This is why you can’t focus on your studies— and the clinic.”
Li Wei’ s cheeks turned red. “I don’ t want to be a doctor!” she shouted. “I want to dance!” Before her mother could answer, Li Wei grabbed her bag and ran out, leaving the clinic door moving.
Weeks passed, and the tension between them reached boiling point. Li Wei avoided the clinic, spending long hours at dance practices even though her knees had become swollen and red. When she did come home, the house was full of cold silence, broken only by the occasional noise of her mother’s tool grinding (研磨) herbs. But Li Wei couldn’t miss the way her mother’s eyes looked at her dance shoes, or the soft sighs that came from her during their rare talks. She was eager for her mother’s support.
Then came a big chance: a national dance competition. Li Wei’ s hands shook as she filled out the application form, her heart beating fast. But when she looked at the bottom of the page, she felt scared. The form needed a parent’s signature, a sad reminder of the gap between her and her mother.

【答案】【参考范文】
That evening, Li Wei arrived at the clinic, with the application form in hand. Her mother was carefully weighing dried herbs at the counter. With a deep breath, Li Wei placed the form in front of her, ready to brace herself for the refusal she had long expected. Her mother wiped her hands on her apron and picked up the paper. After a moment of careful reading, she signed her name without a word. Then, she reached under the counter, took out a small sachet, and placed it gently in Li Wei’ s hand. “Keep this with you,” she said softly. “It will help you stay calm.” A sense of warmth welled up in Li Wei’ s heart, resolving to do her utmost in the competition.
Before stepping onto stage, Li Wei held her mother’s lucky sachet (香囊) in her pocket. It was her first time competing on such a major stage. Great panic almost made her forget how to dance. Just then her mother appeared quietly beside her, “The clinic is my path, but this stage is your journey.” Her words lingered in the air like a blessing. Li Wei breathed in the sachet’ s calming scent, felt her fear loosen, and gave her mother’ s hand a grateful squeeze. Stepping into the lights, Li Wei danced — and in her movement, two separate dreams converged into a moment of perfect understanding.
