Two distinctive events were the highlights: the Obstacle Dribbling Race and Fun Basketball Shooting. In the first event, we had to dribble a basketball while navigating a zigzag path full of obstacles. For the shooting game, the hoop was set higher than usual, and we were allowed to use creative postures. This sports meeting was a great break from our busy study schedule. It reminded me that senior three life is not merely a race toward the college entrance exam, but a journey filled with moments of delight and precious memories Yours, Li Hua 应用文写作评分标准 一、评分原则 1. 本题总分为15分，按5个档次给分。 2. 评分时，先根据文章的内容和语言初步确定其所属档次，然后以该档次的要求来衡量，确定或调整档次，最后给分。 3. 词数少于60和多于100的，从总分中减去2分。 4. 评分时，应注意的主要内容为：内容要点、应用词汇和语法结构的丰富性和准确性及上下文的连贯性。 5. 拼写与标点符号是语言准确性的一个方面，评分时，应视其对交际的影响程度予以考虑。英、美拼写及词汇用法均可接受。 6. 如书写较差，以致影响交际，可将分数降低一个档次。 二、各档次的给分范围和要求 档次 描述 第五档 (13～15分) 完全完成了试题规定的任务。 - 覆盖所有内容要点。 - 应用了较多的语法结构和词汇。 - 语法结构或词汇方面有些许错误，但因尽力使用较复杂结构或较高级词汇所致；具备较强的语言运用能力。 - 有效地使用了语句间的连接成分，使全文结构紧凑。 完全达到了预期的写作目的。 第四档 (10～12分) 完全完成了试题规定的任务。 - 虽漏掉1、2个次重点，但覆盖所有主要内容。 - 应用的语法结构和词汇能满足任务的要求。 - 语法结构或词汇方面应用基本准确，些许错误主要是因尝试较复杂语法结构或词汇所致。 - 应用简单的语句间连接成分，使全文结构紧凑。 达到了预期的写作目的。 第三档 (7～9分) 基本完成了试题规定的任务。 - 虽漏掉一些内容，但覆盖所有主要内容。 - 应用的语法结构和词汇能满足任务的要求。 - 有一些语法结构或词汇方面的错误，但不影响理解。 - 应用简单的语句间连接成分，使全文内容连贯。 整体而言，基本达到了预期的写作目的。 第二档 (4～6分) 未适当完成试题规定的任务。 - 漏掉或未描述清楚一些主要内容，写了一些无关内容。 - 语法结构单调、词汇项目有限。 - 有一些语法结构或词汇方面的错误，影响了对写作内容的理解。 - 较少使用语句间的连接成分，内容缺少连贯性。 信息未能清楚地传达给读者。 第一档 (1～3分) 未完成试题规定的任务。 - 明显遗漏主要内容，写了一些无关内容，原因可能是未理解试题要求。 - 语法结构单调、词汇项目有限。 - 较多语法结构或词汇方面的错误，影响对写作内容的理解。 - 缺乏语句间的连接成分，内容不连贯。 信息未能传达给读者。 0分 未能传达给读者任何信息：内容太少，无法评判；写的内容均与所要求内容无关或所写内容无法看清。 第二节（满分25分） 【参考范文】 One possible version: Sharon, now holding the phone, called for an ambulance. Her voice remained steady, despite the pain running through her body. She provided the person on the other end with their address and a brief description of what had happened. Meanwhile, she kept her gentle eyes on her great-grandson, who was sitting beside her, offering a small, comforting hand. The wait seemed endless in the dark of the night. Finally, the sound of the ambulance filled the air, growing louder as it neared the house. As the helpers from the ambulance carefully attended to Sharon, Bridger’s family rushed home. They found him sitting beside her, looking both proud and scared. His parents, still in shock, hugged him tightly, amazed by his bravery. Later that evening, after Sharon was taken to the hospital, Bridger’s family sat together and quietly reflected on what had happened. In the days that followed, Sharon recovered with the love and support of her family.

AI consumes large amounts of energy: a single ChatGPT response uses around 10 times the electricity of a Google search, and its more than 400 million weekly active users increase demand. DeepSeek claimed higher energy efficiency but also faced doubts, keeping AI’s energy use a persistent concern. Here is the daily energy comparison between ChatGPT and Google search. Operation Type Energy Per Search Daily Energy Use ChatGPT Response 0.0029 kWh 621.4 MWh Google Search 0.0003 kWh 10.8 MWh Given the energy consumption, AI adoption won’t slow as firms view it as essential, so a smart strategy is needed to employ AI’s benefits while meeting sustainable goals. Luckily, industry experts are developing various solutions to address this challenge. The AI-related energy risks have gained visibility, triggering public awareness and action. Yet focusing on energy alone cannot break the cycle of compounding environmental and operational pressures. “To address AI-energy risks and unlock long-term value, companies and investors must move beyond their narrow roles in the AI value chain. They should pursue strategies that create shared value by advancing business goals while benefiting society and the environment,” notes Lauren Smart in World Economic Forum. 21. How much more daily energy does ChatGPT consume than Google Search? A. 632.2 MWh. B. 621.4 MWh. C. 610.6 MWh. D. 10.8 MWh. 22. Which of the following is an effective measure to cut AI energy use? A. Adopting energy-saving chips. B. Selecting larger models. C. Establishing more data centers. D. Encouraging firm competitions. 23. According to Lauren Smart, AI companies should adopt a mission that ___________. A. creates shared value B. gains public recognition C. follows existing regulations D. maximizes investor’s profits 【答案】21. C 22. A 23. A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章指出AI能耗巨大，但企业仍需采用AI。为应对能源挑战，需采取智能策略。文章强调企业需超越狭隘角色，创造共享价值，实现商业、社会和环境共赢。 21. 细节理解题。根据文章中给出的数据表格，“ChatGPT Response”的每日能源使用量为621.4 MWh，而“Google Search”的每日能源使用量为10.8 MWh。通过简单的减法计算，621.4 MWh-10.8 MWh=610.6 MWh，即可得出ChatGPT每天比Google Search多消耗610.6 MWh的能源。故选C项。 22. 推理判断题。根据图片中第一部分内容“Hardware Upgrades: Use power-limited, carbon-efficient hardware (e.g, IBM’s 2025 new chips) to cut energy use.(硬件升级：采用功率消耗低、碳排放量小的硬件设备（例如，IBM 的 2025 年新芯片）以降低能源消耗)”可知，采用节能芯片可以直接减少AI运行时的能源消耗。故选A项。 23. 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段中Lauren Smart的话“To address AI-energy risks and unlock long-term value, companies and investors must move beyond their narrow roles in the AI value chain. They should pursue strategies that create shared value by advancing business goals while benefiting society and the environment,(为了应对AI能源风险并释放长期价值，公司和投资者必须超越他们在AI价值链中的狭隘角色。他们应该采取既能推进商业目标又能造福社会和环境的策略，以创造共享价值)”可知，Lauren Smart认为AI公司应该采取的使命是创造共享价值。故选A项。 B I woke up before the alarm went off this morning. I reached over to grab my clock and see what time it was only to have a furry head with a long nose get in the way. I petted my dog, Hank, while he happily touched my hand. I decided to check the clock with the other hand only to have my other dog, Sweetie, intercept it. I leaned down and touched my head to hers and she touched my nose through her under-bite. I smiled and thought to myself that this wasn’t the worst way to wake up; covered in kisses and knowing that you are loved. Later as the sun came up over the mountains and I drank my morning coffee, I looked out my kitchen window and saw a robin sitting on the fence near my home. She had a long piece of grass in her mouth. She looked back at me before flying up into the upper branches of my maple tree to work on her nest. I stepped out of my back door to see if I could see her again but stopped in my tracks. Only fifteen feet away was a deer eating the freshly grown grass behind my house.

(我决定用另一只手去查看闹钟，结果我的另一只狗，Sweetie，也来intercept我的手)”和前文描述第一只狗“get in the way (挡路)”这一动作的逻辑可知，作者的两只手分别被两只狗“阻止，妨碍”去拿闹钟，故“intercept”在文中意为“阻挡，妨碍”，与B项“Block”词义一致。故选B项。 25. 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Only fifteen feet away was a deer eating the freshly grown grass behind my house. I raised my coffee cup to him to show him I meant him no harm then eased back into my house to let him finish his breakfast. (就在十五英尺开外，一只鹿正在我家屋后啃食新长出的青草。我向它举起咖啡杯，以示我无意伤害它，然后轻轻退回屋内，让他继续享用早餐)”可知，作者举杯的动作是一种非威胁性的示意，目的是向鹿传递善意和友好的信号，让其安心。故选A项。 26. 推理判断题。根据第三段中“As I did so, I was filled with a wonderful sense of peace in my soul. I could feel the love around me, not only from my pets but from the wild animals in my backyard. I could feel my oneness with nature, with life, and with love. (当我这样做时，我的灵魂充满了美妙的平和感。我能感受到周围的爱，不仅来自我的宠物，也来自我后院的野生动物。我能感受到自己与自然、与生命、与爱合而为一)”可知，作者在与宠物的互动和观察野生动物的过程中，获得了精神上的宁静与满足，他感受到了与自然万物紧密相连的“一体感”，这表明他从与自然的互动中获得了心灵的平和与联结。故选D项。 27. 推理判断题。通读全文，特别是第一段中“I smiled and thought to myself that this wasn’t the worst way to wake up; covered in kisses and knowing that you are loved. (我微笑着心想，这不是最糟糕的醒来方式；被亲吻覆盖，并且知道你被爱着)”、第三段中“I could feel the love around me, not only from my pets but from the wild animals in my backyard. (我能感受到周围的爱，不仅来自我的宠物，也来自我后院的野生动物)”和第四段中“Hug this life then. Value it. Feel your oneness with it. Know that you are loved. (那么，拥抱这个生命吧。珍视它。感受你与它的合一。要知道你被爱着)”可知，文章通过描述清晨与宠物、鸟和鹿互动的微小瞬间，传递了这些平凡时刻所带来的爱与联结感，进而升华到对生命的热爱与分享。这些细节表明，微小的时刻能带来深刻的爱的感受。故选C项。 C Friend is a new wearable AI companion that you can wear around your neck. The small, white, puck-shaped device records your every word and interaction and responds accordingly by text. The company says it does not store your conversations and you can delete its “memories” whenever you want to. Friend, along with other similar AI companion products, exists at the crossroads of two complex issues: AI and the loneliness epidemic (流行病). As technology reshapes how we interact with others, more and more people report feeling socially disconnected. In 2023, the WHO declared loneliness a “global public health concern” that is as bad for people’s health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day. However, people’s responses to this AI companion trend are mixed. While some people argue that it can help people feel less lonely, others worry that AI companionship might replace real human connections, and thus further worsen feelings of loneliness. But so far, research doesn’t seem to support this fear. In 2024, Bethanie Drake-Maples, a researcher in human-centered AI, and her team investigated more than 1,000 students who used the AI chatbot Replika.These users reported decreased anxiety and a feeling of social support. Nearly a quarter of those surveyed said Replika had led to positive changes in their actions and ways of thinking. “I am more able to handle stress in my current relationship because of Replika’s advice,” one respondent wrote. “These findings, though, are not generalized,” says Drake-Maples. “It’s not clear that every average Joe is going to experience the same effect.” The studies she has conducted focus on “students who are pretty lonely”. “But the people who may benefit from AI companionship are not just those on the fringe (边缘) of society,” she adds. However, it is still a new field. “I strongly believe that we do need to have ethical guidelines around AI companions that can push people back, when appropriate, towards human relationships,” Drake-Maples adds. These could be gentle nudges (劝说) like “Hey, you should go chat with somebody about that.” or “Go practice this now with a real human.” 28. What is the purpose of paragraph 1? A. To demonstrate how an AI companion works. B. To introduce the topic of the impact of AI companionship. C. To show the rapid development of AI companionship. D. To promote the AI companion called Friend. 29. What can we learn about AI companionship from Drake-Maples’ investigation? A. Its effects require further in-depth study. B. It can equally benefit the general public. C. Its development prospects are concerning. D. It should be applied with greater caution. 30. What does Drake-Maples imply by his words in the last paragraph? A. AI companions deserve wider application. B. AI can revolutionize how humans connect. C. AI should ultimately serve human connections. D. AI companions can learn from human interaction. 31. What is the tone of the whole text? A. Critical. B. Humorous. C. Persuasive. D. Objective. 【答案】28. B 29. A 30. C 31. D 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了AI伴侣产品Friend的出现，探讨了AI陪伴对孤独问题的影响及研究情况，还提及需制定道德准则。 28. 推理判断题。根据第一段“Friend is a new wearable AI companion that you can wear around your neck. The small, white, puck-shaped device records your every word and interaction and responds accordingly by text. The company says it does not store your conversations and you can delete its “memories” whenever you want to.(Friend是一款新型的可穿戴人工智能伴侣，你可以把它戴在脖子上。这个白色、圆盘状的小设备会记录你说的每一句话和每一次互动，并通过文字做出相应回应。该公司表示，它不会存储你的对话内容，你可以随时删除它的“记忆”。)”可知，第一段主要介绍了Friend这款人工智能伴侣的功能特点，目的是引出人工智能伴侣这一话题，进而探讨其影响。故选B。 29. 细节理解题。根据第四段中““These findings, though, are not generalized,” says Drake-Maples. “It’s not clear that every average Joe is going to experience the same effect.” The studies she has conducted focus on “students who are pretty lonely”. “But the people who may benefit from AI companionship are not just those on the fringe (边缘) of society,” she adds.(“不过，这些发现并不具有普遍性，”Drake-Maples说。“目前还不清楚每个普通人是否都会有同样的体验。”她所进行的研究聚焦于“相当孤独的学生”。“但是，可能从人工智能陪伴中受益的人不只是社会边缘群体，”她补充道。)”可知，从Drake-Maples的调查中我们可以了解到人工智能陪伴的影响还需要进一步深入研究。故选A。 30. 推理判断题。根据最后一段中““I strongly believe that we do need to have ethical guidelines around AI companions that can push people back, when appropriate, towards human relationships,” Drake-Maples adds. These could be gentle nudges (劝说) like “Hey, you should go chat with somebody about that.” or “Go practice this now with a real human.”(“我坚信，我们确实需要围绕人工智能伴侣制定道德准则，在适当的时候，促使人们回归到人际关系中，”Drake-Maples补充道。这些准则可以是温和的劝说，比如“嘿，你应该找个人聊聊这件事。”或者“现在就去和一个真实的人练习一下。”)”可知，Drake-Maples认为人工智能应该最终服务于人类之间的联系。故选C。 31. 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“Friend is a new wearable AI companion that you can wear around your neck. The small, white, puck-shaped device records your every word and interaction and responds accordingly by text. The company says it does not store your conversations and you can delete its “memories” whenever you want to.(Friend是一款新型的可穿戴人工智能伴侣，你可以把它戴在脖子上。这个白色、圆盘状的小设备会记录你说的每一句话和每一次互动，并通过文字做出相应回应。该公司表示，它不会存储你的对话内容，你可以随时删除它的“记忆”。)”和第三段“However, people’s responses to this AI companion trend are mixed. While some people argue that it can help people feel less lonely, others worry that AI companionship might replace real human connections, and thus further worsen feelings of loneliness.(然而，人们对于这种人工智能伴侣潮流的反响褒贬不一。一部分人认为它能帮助人们减轻孤独感，但也有人担心，人工智能陪伴或许会取代真实的人际联结，进而加剧孤独感。)”可知，文章先是介绍了Friend这款人工智能伴侣，接着阐述了人工智能陪伴与孤独问题这两个复杂议题的关联，然后讲述了人们对人工智能陪伴趋势的不同看法，还介绍了Drake-Maples的调查研究，最后提到需要制定道德准则促使人们回归人际关系。整个文章只是客观地陈述事实、观点和研究结果，没有明显的批判、幽默或劝说语气。所以文章整体语气是客观的。故选D。 D Researchers in Washington University in St. Louis have developed a filter that treats wastewater and also generates electricity—an advance that could reshape energy use at treatment plants. The new system uses bacteria to produce an electric charge while breaking down organic material otherwise seen as waste. The findings from the lab of Zhen He, a professor of energy, environmental and chemical engineering, were detailed in the academic journal Environmental Science: Water Research & Technology. The research fits into a growing set of technologies that pushes back against the traditional view of regarding wastewater as waste and looks instead to put it to beneficial use. Depending on how thoroughly it is treated, recovered water can be repurposed for anything from “undrinkable” uses like crop-watering to drinking water. The Washington U. team’s new filter, however, provides an added bonus. The system uses a cloth to collect organic matter from the wastewater and to provide bacteria with a place to settle. Then, as bacteria consume the organic materials, electrons are released and gathered by the cloth, creating electricity. Steel around the filter sends the electric current from the “bacteria fuel cell” to an external circuit. That two-way function is what makes the electrode unique. Treating one cubic meter of wastewater could, in theory, generate 20 watts of power for an hour. That means a larger unit or a collection of units could power lights or larger electrical devices! The team, next, aims to develop further and make it leap into the real world. Ideally, He would love to see the filters used by urban wastewater treatment facilities. But He says a more likely, transitional step could be for the filters to first catch on in smaller individual industrial factories that have wastewater to treat. The ultimate aim is to change wastewater treatment from an energy user into a power source. “Is it really a waste?” He asked. “Or can we treat it as a resource?” Viewing wastewater as a resource rather than waste enables sustainable energy generation and promotes environmental protection, presenting a mutually beneficial approach to wastewater treatment. 32. What determines the use of the recovered water? A. The storage time. B. The extent of treatment. C. The amount of bacteria. D. The source of original water. 33. What does the underlined phrase “an added bonus” in paragraph 3 refer to? A. Power generation. B. Less pollution. C. Water purification. D. More electrons. 34. What might be the next step for the team? A. Exploring potential markets of the filters. B. Improving the performance of the system. C. Fitting the filters in urban wastewater plants. D. Popularizing the filters in small-sized workshops. 35. Why does He raise questions in the last paragraph? A. To highlight wastewater-not-waste concept. B. To recognize the achievement of the research. C. To stress the urgency of the wastewater treatment. D. To discuss the possible direction for further study. 【答案】32. B 33. A 34. D 35. A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了圣路易斯华盛顿大学的研究人员开发出一种既能处理废水又能发电的滤器，这种滤器有望改变污水处理厂的能源使用方式，将污水处理从能源消耗转变为能源来源。 32. 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Depending on how thoroughly it is treated, recovered water can be repurposed for anything from “undrinkable” uses like crop-watering to drinking water.(根据处理的彻底程度，回收的水可以被重新利用，从“不可饮用”的用途，如浇灌庄稼到饮用水。)”可知，回收水的用途取决于处理的程度。故选B。 33. 词句猜测题。根据第三段中的“Then, as bacteria consume the organic materials, electrons are released and gathered by the cloth, creating electricity.(然后，当细菌消耗有机材料时，电子被释放并被布料收集，从而产生电力。)”以及划线部分上文“The Washington U. team’s new filter, however, provides(然而，华盛顿大学团队的新滤器提供了)”可知，该团队的新滤器不仅能处理废水，还能产生电能，这是额外的收获，所以“an added bonus”指的是“发电”。故选A。 34. 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“The team, next, aims to develop further and make it leap into the real world.(接下来，该团队的目标是进一步开发，使其跃入现实世界。)”以及“But He says a more likely, transitional step could be for the filters to first catch on in smaller individual industrial factories that have wastewater to treat.(但He说，更有可能的过渡步骤是，过滤器首先在需要处理废水的小型个体工业工厂中流行起来。)”可推知，该团队的下一步可能是在小型车间推广这些滤器。故选D。 35. 推理判断题。根据最后一段“‘Is it really a waste?’ He asked. ‘Or can we treat it as a resource?’ Viewing wastewater as a resource rather than waste enables sustainable energy generation and promotes environmental protection, presenting a mutually beneficial approach to wastewater treatment.(他问道：“这真的算是废弃物吗？又或者，我们能否将其视为一种资源呢？”将废水视为资源而非废弃物，能够实现可持续的能源生产，并促进环境保护，为废水处理提供了一种互利共赢的方法。)”可推知，何教授在最后一段提出问题是为了强调“废水非废物”的概念。故选A。 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。 People say fortune favors the brave, but taking a leap is easier said than done. 36 ●Embrace strategic risk. One of the biggest misconceptions about risk-taking is that if something feels uncomfortable, it’s a sign to back away. But researches have taught us this: 37 Ask yourself, “Does this risk match my values? Is it moving me toward something I care about?” If yes, expect some embarrassment. The biggest payoffs live just past that initial awkward phase. ● 38 Many of us have grown too afraid of taking risks — maybe because one risk made us embarrassed. A good way to feel less scared of risks is to ask yourself: “What’s one small thing I can do to get used to not knowing what will happen?” Start with bite-size, winnable risks, like speaking up in a meeting, volunteering for a project slightly outside your wheelhouse. ●Breathe in bravery. Breathe out fear. 39 In other words, taking a few deep breaths helps regulate anxiety. Another easy way to stretch your risk-taking muscles is by copying someone you admire. Imagine them in your shoes and how they’d approach your challenge. How would they talk, walk or hold themselves? Even standing tall sends a signal to your brain that “you’ve got this”. ●Forgive yourself. We all have moments when we don’t do the thing that will help us grow. And that’s okay! Instead of beating yourself up, forgive yourself because you’re human. 40 Being kind to yourself may just be the best way to step forward toward a braver version of yourself. A. Enjoy small wins. B. Our body impacts our mind. C. Overcome unexpected fears. D. No one is courageous all the time. E. Humans always have high expectations. F. Bravery and awkwardness are sisters in life. G. The following tips will help you outsmart fear. 【答案】36. G 37. F 38. A 39. B 40.

Young Bridger Peabody, with his messy hair and big curious eyes, was being cared for by his great-grandmother, Sharon Lewis. Her house, full of warmth, old photos. and quiet memories, became their safe place while Bridger’s family was at the hospital with his sister. Sharon, a strong and clever person, had always been like a bright light in Bridger’s life. But one evening, as the stars began to shine in the dark sky, a sudden slip outside her door changed everything. The ground was slippery, and she fell hard. her head hitting the cold and hard step. Pain shot through her, and she found herself lying still on the frozen ground, unable to move. “Bridger,” she called out, her voice shaking but still strong. “I need your help.” The little boy, who had been quietly playing in the living room, ran to her side. His heart pounded fast when he saw his great-grandmother on the ground. He felt scared and unsure. Bridger had only recently recovered from a long illness, and running too much still made him dizzy. And ever since he was little, he’d been terrified of the dark. “Can you get my phone from the car, honey?” Sharon asked gently, trusting him completely. Bridger nodded, even though his small hands were trembling. He took a deep breath and whispered to himself, “Don’t be scared. Don’t be scared.” Like a song,  the words helped him stay brave. The video from the backyard camera later showed his courage — a tiny shape moving through the cold, dark night, his voice just a small sound in the stillness. Each step he took was a brave fight against his fear, but Bridger didn’t stop. He reached the car, his fingers searching quickly for the phone. His face lit up when he found it. Holding it tightly, he ran back toward the house. “I got it!” he shouted, his voice full of pride, hope and love. 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。 Sharon, now holding the phone, called for an ambulance. __________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As the helpers from the ambulance carefully attended to Sharon, Bridger’s family rushed home. ___________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Sharon, now holding the phone, called for an ambulance. Her voice remained steady, despite the pain running through her body. She provided the person on the other end with their address and a brief description of what had happened. Meanwhile, she kept her gentle eyes on her great-grandson, who was sitting beside her, offering a small, comforting hand. The wait seemed endless in the dark of the night. Finally, the sound of the ambulance filled the air, growing louder as it neared the house. As the helpers from the ambulance carefully attended to Sharon, Bridger’s family rushed home. They found him sitting beside her, looking both proud and scared. His parents, still in shock, hugged him tightly, amazed by his bravery. Later that evening, after Sharon was taken to the hospital, Bridger’s family sat together and quietly reflected on what had happened. In the days that followed, Sharon recovered with the love and support of her family. Whenever Bridger looked at his great-grandmother, he felt a special sense of pride, knowing he had been there when she needed him most. 【导语】文章以人物为线索展开，讲述了在二月中旬，Bridger的姐姐住院，他和曾祖母Sharon待在一起。一天晚上，Sharon出门时滑倒受伤，无法动弹，她让Bridger去车里拿手机求助。尽管Bridger刚病愈，跑多了会头晕，还从小怕黑，但他还是克服恐惧，勇敢地完成了任务，展现出令人钦佩的勇气。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段首句内容“Sharon握着电话，拨打了急救电话。”可知，第一段可描写电话的主要内容，Bridger安抚曾祖母以及等待救援的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“就在救护人员小心照料Sharon的时候，Bridger的家人赶回了家。”可知，第二段可描写家人了解情况后夸赞Bridger勇敢，Sharon逐渐恢复以及Bridger的感受。 2.续写线索：电话求助——安抚曾祖母——救护车到来——家人夸赞Bridger勇敢——Sharon逐渐恢复——Bridger的感受 3.词汇激活 行为类：①发生：happen/occur ②靠近：near/approach ③拥抱：hug/embrace ④恢复：recover/restore 情绪类：①惊讶：amaze/astonish ②害怕的：scared/frightened 【点睛】 [高分句型1]Finally, the sound of the ambulance filled the air, growing louder as it neared the house.（运用了现在分词短语growing louder作状语，as引导时间状语从句） [高分句型2]Later that evening, after Sharon was taken to the hospital, Bridger’s family sat together and quietly reflected on what had happened.（运用了after引导时间状语从句，what引导宾语从句） 湖北省武汉中学2025-2026学年度高二上学期12月月考 英语试卷第1页，共3页 湖北省武汉中学2025-2026学年度高三上学期12月月考 英语试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 湖北省武汉中学2025-2026学年度高三年级上学期元月月考 英 语 考试时间：120分钟；命题人：高三备课组 注意事项： 1. 答题前填写好自己的姓名、班级、考号等信息 2. 请将答案正确填写在答题卡上 第I卷(选择题) 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

AI consumes large amounts of energy: a single ChatGPT response uses around 10 times the electricity of a Google search, and its more than 400 million weekly active users increase demand. DeepSeek claimed higher energy efficiency but also faced doubts, keeping AI’s energy use a persistent concern. Here is the daily energy comparison between ChatGPT and Google search. Operation Type Energy Per Search Daily Energy Use ChatGPT Response 0.0029 kWh 621.4 MWh Google Search 0.0003 kWh 10.8 MWh Given the energy consumption, AI adoption won’t slow as firms view it as essential, so a smart strategy is needed to employ AI’s benefits while meeting sustainable goals. Luckily, industry experts are developing various solutions to address this challenge. The AI-related energy risks have gained visibility, triggering public awareness and action. Yet focusing on energy alone cannot break the cycle of compounding environmental and operational pressures. “To address AI-energy risks and unlock long-term value, companies and investors must move beyond their narrow roles in the AI value chain. They should pursue strategies that create shared value by advancing business goals while benefiting society and the environment,” notes Lauren Smart in World Economic Forum. 21. How much more daily energy does ChatGPT consume than Google Search? A. 632.2 MWh. B. 621.4 MWh. C. 610.6 MWh. D. 10.8 MWh. 22. Which of the following is an effective measure to cut AI energy use? A. Adopting energy-saving chips. B. Selecting larger models. C. Establishing more data centers. D. Encouraging firm competitions. 23. According to Lauren Smart, AI companies should adopt a mission that ___________. A. creates shared value B. gains public recognition C. follows existing regulations D. maximizes investor’s profits B I woke up before the alarm went off this morning. I reached over to grab my clock and see what time it was only to have a furry head with a long nose get in the way. I petted my dog, Hank, while he happily touched my hand. I decided to check the clock with the other hand only to have my other dog, Sweetie, intercept it. I leaned down and touched my head to hers and she touched my nose through her under-bite. I smiled and thought to myself that this wasn’t the worst way to wake up; covered in kisses and knowing that you are loved. Later as the sun came up over the mountains and I drank my morning coffee, I looked out my kitchen window and saw a robin sitting on the fence near my home. She had a long piece of grass in her mouth. She looked back at me before flying up into the upper branches of my maple tree to work on her nest. I stepped out of my back door to see if I could see her again but stopped in my tracks. Only fifteen feet away was a deer eating the freshly grown grass behind my house. I raised my coffee cup to him to show him I meant him no harm then eased back into my house to let him finish his breakfast. As I did so, I was filled with a wonderful sense of peace in my soul. I could feel the love around me, not only from my pets but from the wild animals in my backyard. I could feel my oneness with nature, with life, and with love. And I could say was ‌“Thank you!” This life is so glorious. Hug this life then. Value it. Feel your oneness with it. Know that you are loved. Know that you can love. Then go out, sharing all of your love, your joy, and your light with everyone everywhere. 24. What does the underlined word ‌“intercept” probably mean in the passage? A. Ignore. B. Block. C. Accept. D. Follow. 25. Why did the author raise the coffee cup to the deer? A. To express his friendliness. B. To scare away the deer gently. C. To invite the deer to share breakfast. D. To take a photo of the moment. 26. What can be inferred about the author’s relationship with nature? A. He prefers wild animals over pets. B. He studies wildlife behavior regularly. C. He feels disconnected from urban life. D. He finds spiritual peace in natural interactions. 27. What does the author’s morning experience show? A. Early risers enjoy health. B. Pets are loyal companions. C. Small moments bring love. D. Nature deserves protection. C Friend is a new wearable AI companion that you can wear around your neck. The small, white, puck-shaped device records your every word and interaction and responds accordingly by text. The company says it does not store your conversations and you can delete its “memories” whenever you want to. Friend, along with other similar AI companion products, exists at the crossroads of two complex issues: AI and the loneliness epidemic (流行病). As technology reshapes how we interact with others, more and more people report feeling socially disconnected. In 2023, the WHO declared loneliness a “global public health concern” that is as bad for people’s health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day. However, people’s responses to this AI companion trend are mixed. While some people argue that it can help people feel less lonely, others worry that AI companionship might replace real human connections, and thus further worsen feelings of loneliness. But so far, research doesn’t seem to support this fear. In 2024, Bethanie Drake-Maples, a researcher in human-centered AI, and her team investigated more than 1,000 students who used the AI chatbot Replika.These users reported decreased anxiety and a feeling of social support. Nearly a quarter of those surveyed said Replika had led to positive changes in their actions and ways of thinking. “I am more able to handle stress in my current relationship because of Replika’s advice,” one respondent wrote. “These findings, though, are not generalized,” says Drake-Maples. “It’s not clear that every average Joe is going to experience the same effect.” The studies she has conducted focus on “students who are pretty lonely”. “But the people who may benefit from AI companionship are not just those on the fringe (边缘) of society,” she adds. However, it is still a new field. “I strongly believe that we do need to have ethical guidelines around AI companions that can push people back, when appropriate, towards human relationships,” Drake-Maples adds. These could be gentle nudges (劝说) like “Hey, you should go chat with somebody about that.” or “Go practice this now with a real human.” 28. What is the purpose of paragraph 1? A. To demonstrate how an AI companion works. B. To introduce the topic of the impact of AI companionship. C. To show the rapid development of AI companionship. D. To promote the AI companion called Friend. 29. What can we learn about AI companionship from Drake-Maples’ investigation? A. Its effects require further in-depth study. B. It can equally benefit the general public. C. Its development prospects are concerning. D. It should be applied with greater caution. 30. What does Drake-Maples imply by his words in the last paragraph? A. AI companions deserve wider application. B. AI can revolutionize how humans connect. C. AI should ultimately serve human connections. D. AI companions can learn from human interaction. 31. What is the tone of the whole text? A. Critical. B. Humorous. C. Persuasive. D. Objective. D Researchers in Washington University in St. Louis have developed a filter that treats wastewater and also generates electricity—an advance that could reshape energy use at treatment plants. The new system uses bacteria to produce an electric charge while breaking down organic material otherwise seen as waste. The findings from the lab of Zhen He, a professor of energy, environmental and chemical engineering, were detailed in the academic journal Environmental Science: Water Research & Technology. The research fits into a growing set of technologies that pushes back against the traditional view of regarding wastewater as waste and looks instead to put it to beneficial use. Depending on how thoroughly it is treated, recovered water can be repurposed for anything from “undrinkable” uses like crop-watering to drinking water. The Washington U. team’s new filter, however, provides an added bonus. The system uses a cloth to collect organic matter from the wastewater and to provide bacteria with a place to settle. Then, as bacteria consume the organic materials, electrons are released and gathered by the cloth, creating electricity. Steel around the filter sends the electric current from the “bacteria fuel cell” to an external circuit. That two-way function is what makes the electrode unique. Treating one cubic meter of wastewater could, in theory, generate 20 watts of power for an hour. That means a larger unit or a collection of units could power lights or larger electrical devices! The team, next, aims to develop further and make it leap into the real world. Ideally, He would love to see the filters used by urban wastewater treatment facilities. But He says a more likely, transitional step could be for the filters to first catch on in smaller individual industrial factories that have wastewater to treat. The ultimate aim is to change wastewater treatment from an energy user into a power source. “Is it really a waste?” He asked. “Or can we treat it as a resource?” Viewing wastewater as a resource rather than waste enables sustainable energy generation and promotes environmental protection, presenting a mutually beneficial approach to wastewater treatment. 32. What determines the use of the recovered water? A. The storage time. B. The extent of treatment. C. The amount of bacteria. D. The source of original water. 33. What does the underlined phrase “an added bonus” in paragraph 3 refer to? A. Power generation. B. Less pollution. C. Water purification. D. More electrons. 34. What might be the next step for the team? A. Exploring potential markets of the filters. B. Improving the performance of the system. C. Fitting the filters in urban wastewater plants. D. Popularizing the filters in small-sized workshops. 35. Why does He raise questions in the last paragraph? A. To highlight wastewater-not-waste concept. B. To recognize the achievement of the research. C. To stress the urgency of the wastewater treatment. D. To discuss the possible direction for further study. 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。 People say fortune favors the brave, but taking a leap is easier said than done. 36 ●Embrace strategic risk. One of the biggest misconceptions about risk-taking is that if something feels uncomfortable, it’s a sign to back away. But researches have taught us this: 37 Ask yourself, “Does this risk match my values? Is it moving me toward something I care about?” If yes, expect some embarrassment. The biggest payoffs live just past that initial awkward phase. ● 38 Many of us have grown too afraid of taking risks — maybe because one risk made us embarrassed. A good way to feel less scared of risks is to ask yourself: “What’s one small thing I can do to get used to not knowing what will happen?” Start with bite-size, winnable risks, like speaking up in a meeting, volunteering for a project slightly outside your wheelhouse. ●Breathe in bravery. Breathe out fear. 39 In other words, taking a few deep breaths helps regulate anxiety. Another easy way to stretch your risk-taking muscles is by copying someone you admire. Imagine them in your shoes and how they’d approach your challenge. How would they talk, walk or hold themselves? Even standing tall sends a signal to your brain that “you’ve got this”. ●Forgive yourself. We all have moments when we don’t do the thing that will help us grow. And that’s okay! Instead of beating yourself up, forgive yourself because you’re human. 40 Being kind to yourself may just be the best way to step forward toward a braver version of yourself. A. Enjoy small wins. B. Our body impacts our mind. C. Overcome unexpected fears. D. No one is courageous all the time. E. Humans always have high expectations. F. Bravery and awkwardness are sisters in life. G. The following tips will help you outsmart fear. 第II卷(非选择题) 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 I lost my job in early 2025.

Young Bridger Peabody, with his messy hair and big curious eyes, was being cared for by his great-grandmother, Sharon Lewis. Her house, full of warmth, old photos. and quiet memories, became their safe place while Bridger’s family was at the hospital with his sister. Sharon, a strong and clever person, had always been like a bright light in Bridger’s life. But one evening, as the stars began to shine in the dark sky, a sudden slip outside her door changed everything. The ground was slippery, and she fell hard. her head hitting the cold and hard step. Pain shot through her, and she found herself lying still on the frozen ground, unable to move. “Bridger,” she called out, her voice shaking but still strong. “I need your help.” The little boy, who had been quietly playing in the living room, ran to her side. His heart pounded fast when he saw his great-grandmother on the ground. He felt scared and unsure. Bridger had only recently recovered from a long illness, and running too much still made him dizzy. And ever since he was little, he’d been terrified of the dark. “Can you get my phone from the car, honey?” Sharon asked gently, trusting him completely. Bridger nodded, even though his small hands were trembling. He took a deep breath and whispered to himself, “Don’t be scared. Don’t be scared.” Like a song,  the words helped him stay brave. The video from the backyard camera later showed his courage — a tiny shape moving through the cold, dark night, his voice just a small sound in the stillness. Each step he took was a brave fight against his fear, but Bridger didn’t stop. He reached the car, his fingers searching quickly for the phone. His face lit up when he found it. Holding it tightly, he ran back toward the house. “I got it!” he shouted, his voice full of pride, hope and love. 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。 Sharon, now holding the phone, called for an ambulance. __________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As the helpers from the ambulance carefully attended to Sharon, Bridger’s family rushed home. ___________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 湖北省武汉中学2025-2026学年度高二上学期12月月考 英语试卷第1页，共3页 湖北省武汉中学2025-2026学年度高三上学期12月月考 英语试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
