But as the editors and critics, we selected a group of pictures with fantastic scenes and touching emotions. Train Dreams Clint Bentley’s remarkable adaptation of Denis Johnson’s novel about a woodcutter at the start of the 20th century, that burning urge to be remembered, to make it significant, turns into a more meaningful goal: to feel. It’s in the present, in the whispered words of a loved one and a child’s laughter. If I Had Legs I’d Kick You Written and directed by Mary Bronstein, it tells the story of Linda, a woman on the edge of a breakdown, as the roof literally collapses on her home while she balances the medical needs of her sick child and patients at her therapy practice. It is an unforgettable experience of empathy and an understanding of the chaotic, imperfect essence of parenting. Eephus It takes place on the final day at a local Massachusetts ballfield planned for replacement by a new middle school. It is a detailed film. The accuracy of the gameplay — which includes the proper positioning of the fielders — provides further reliability. Carson Lund, the director, either placed the camera from a fielder’s view or allowed the film to linger on the moments where nothing yet everything seems to happen. 1. What is the common feature of the selected movies? A. They are set in the 20th century. B. They are directed by the English. C. They are amazing and moving stories. D. They are adapted from literary works. 2. What does the woodcutter in Train Dreams finally value most? A. Achieving great success. B. Enjoying present moments. C. Being remembered by others. D. Following the words of a lover. 3. What makes Eephus a reliable film according to the text? A. The famous director. B. The accurate description. C. The unique camera angles. D. The historical background. 【答案】1. C 2. B 3. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了为电影迷们挑选出的几部具有精彩场景和感人情感的影片，并简要介绍了各影片的内容和特色。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“But as the editors and critics, we selected a group of pictures with fantastic scenes and touching emotions.(但作为编辑和评论家，我们挑选了一组具有精彩场景和感人情感的影片)”可知，这些被选中的电影的共同特点是它们都有精彩场景和感人情感。故选C项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Train Dreams部分中“that burning urge to be remembered, to make it significant, turns into a more meaningful goal: to feel. It’s in the present, in the whispered words of a loved one and a child’s laughter.(那种渴望被铭记、渴望变得有意义的强烈愿望，变成了一个更有意义的目标：去感受。它存在于当下，存在于爱人的低语和孩子的笑声中)”可知，《火车梦》中的伐木工人最终最看重的是享受当下。故选B项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Eephus部分中“It is a detailed film. The accuracy of the gameplay — which includes the proper positioning of the fielders — provides further reliability.(影片细节极为丰富，其比赛场景的准确性——包括守场员的正确站位——进一步增强了真实感)”可知，《伊菲斯》这部电影之所以真实可信，是因为它对比赛的描述非常准确。故选B项。 B Being a student at Cambridge University gives you a great many opportunities to take part in its traditional activities. Rowing is among the most popular. In my first term as a student, I decided to give this sport a go and joined my college boat club. One of the first things I learned was that rowing training comes in two parts: land training and water training. Land training on erg machines helped me get used to the basics of correct movement, techniques and rhythm. Since rowing is very much a team sport, all eight rowers in the boat must move together as one in order to deliver an efficient and powerful stroke. Water training allowed me to apply all the techniques to the context of a boat on water. There were certainly more challenges on water than on land because it was hard for us to keep our boat balanced. The first few sessions out on the water were sometimes difficult but gradually helped us improve our confidence and trust in each other. Halfway through the term I also decided to give coxing a go. I was not aware of the important role a coxswain (舵手) played in rowing before I became one myself. Having to do many things at the same time was certainly a challenge. Controlling a boat is not always easy, especially around tight corners of the river. Making the right decisions about what my rowers should do sometimes felt like a lot of responsibility. The complex aspects of this role felt like a great opportunity for me to develop some key decision-making skills which I didn’t expect before joining a boat club. By the end of the first term at university, my team had competed in two races—Clare Novice Regatta and the Fairbairns’ Cup. I was initially really nervous before these races, but bit by bit they became very exciting. Looking back on this term of rowing and coxing, it has been a wonderful experience full of little surprises along the way. Rowing really helped me connect better with my own body. 4. Why did the author join the boat club in college? A. To develop teamwork skills. B. To take part in a famous race. C. To try a popular traditional sport. D. To make many like-minded friends. 5. What can we learn from the land training of rowing? A. It is much harder than the water training. B. It helps one get basic skills in rowing. C. It applies techniques to a boat model. D. It teaches how to keep a boat balanced. 6. What can we infer about the role of a coxswain? A. It needs one to handle multiple tasks at a time. B. It is a challenging job with little responsibility. C. It is simple to control a boat around tight corners. D. It offers a good chance to make quick decisions. 7. Which of the following best describes the author? A. Cautious and anxious. B. Curious and responsible. C. Passionate and humorous. D. Dependent and patient. 【答案】4. C 5. B 6. A 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，作者回忆了在剑桥大学第一学期参加赛艇运动的经历，详细描述了陆地训练、水上训练的挑战，以及尝试舵手角色的体验和收获。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Rowing is among the most popular. In my first term as a student, I decided to give this sport a go and joined my college boat club. (赛艇便是其中最受欢迎的一项活动。在我作为学生的第一个学期，我决定尝试一下这项运动，并加入了学院的划艇队。)”可知，作者加入划艇俱乐部是因为赛艇是剑桥一项受欢迎的传统运动，他想尝试一下。故选C。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Land training on erg machines helped me get used to the basics of correct movement, techniques and rhythm. (在功率机上进行的陆上训练帮助我掌握了正确的动作、技巧和节奏的基本要素。)”可知，陆地训练帮助作者掌握了赛艇的基本技能。故选B。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Having to do many things at the same time was certainly a challenge. Controlling a boat is not always easy, especially around tight corners of the river. Making the right decisions about what my rowers should do sometimes felt like a lot of responsibility. (同时处理很多事情对我来说无疑是一个挑战。操控一艘船并非总是轻而易举之事，尤其是在河流的急转弯处更是如此。对于如何让我的划手们做出正确的动作，有时我感觉自己肩负着巨大的责任。)”可推断，舵手需要同时处理多项任务(操控方向、做决策等)，责任重大。故选A。 7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“In my first term as a student, I decided to give this sport a go and joined my college boat club. (在我作为学生的第一个学期，我决定尝试一下这项运动，并加入了学院的赛艇队。)”第四段中的“Making the right decisions about what my rowers should do sometimes felt like a lot of responsibility. (对于如何让我的划手们做出正确的动作，有时我感觉自己肩负着巨大的责任。)”及全文可知，作者出于好奇尝试赛艇和舵手角色，并认真对待训练和比赛，在舵手角色中感受到重大责任。故选B。 C Imagine this: You’re tapping on your phone. Instantly, you’re taken to vlogs on Xiaohongshu, where peers are speaking fluent English with foreigners, debating in cafes or attending exchange programs in Sydney. Seeing these glamorous lives, you may ask: Why does everyone else’s life look perfect — except mine? Social media gives us a glimpse into lives we might never see otherwise. However, it also makes the differences between people’s lives more apparent. While international school students can wear makeup without being judged for it, others wake up before sunrise, study through lunch, and stay at school until 10:30 p. m. After seeing such contrasts, curiosity about the world slowly turns into anxiety — or even frustration. But what you see online isn’t the full picture. Most students in the country live similar lives to yours, but they simply don’t share them online. Even if they do, their posts are rarely noticed or recommended by algorithms. Worse still, the more of these vlogs a person watches, the more similar contents the platform feeds them. Without realizing it, young people may get trapped in an information cocoon created by the platform. In today’s world of endless social media, knowing how to question the content we see is an important skill. How can we stay logical and see the real world clearly? That’s what matters. We need to remember that social media is naturally selective. People usually share moments of success, beauty or excitement, not their daily struggles, failures or ordinary routines. Lighting, camera angles and filters (滤镜) can change how things appear. It’s also important to ask questions. Why was this posted? Who benefits from me seeing this? That video of students debating in a cafe may well be sponsored by the cafe. Ads, sponsorships and algorithms often decide what we see. Platforms also have a responsibility. They should set rules that require influencers to clearly label sponsored or edited contents. It’s also important to monitor platforms in ways that protect mental health. When we use apps wisely, we can go from being passive viewers to active users and creators. I recommend that these platforms should provide us with new approaches to learning and growing, not leave us feeling stressed. 8. What is the author’s purpose in writing the first paragraph? A. To show the appealing online lives. B. To explain how to live a great digital life. C. To prove that social media can cause some problems. D. To introduce the topic of social media anxiety. 9. What does the underlined phrase “information cocoon” in paragraph 3 mean? A. A state for users to get limited information. B. A rule for users to customize contents. C. A space for users to learn diverse knowledge. D. A tool for platforms to filter out useless contents. 10. Why does the author mention the video in paragraph 6? A. To promote debate videos. B. To sponsor the behavior of platforms. C. To show the benefit of ads and algorithms. D. To prove the importance of raising questions. 11. What does the author suggest platforms do? A. Offer users new ways to grow. B. Set rules to edit contents. C. Protect users’ visual health. D. Leave users feeling worried. 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了社交媒体如何影响年轻人的心态，特别是引发焦虑和不满情绪，并提出了应对策略，包括质疑网络内容、平台责任以及用户应如何智慧使用社交媒体。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Imagine this; You’re tapping on your phone. Instantly, you’re taken to vlogs on Xiaohongshu, where peers are speaking fluent English with foreigners, debating in cafes or attending exchange programs in Sydney. Seeing these glamorous lives, you may ask: Why does everyone else’s life look perfect — except mine?(想象一下：你正刷着手机，转眼就被小红书上的vlog吸引——同龄人正用流利的英语与外国人交谈，在咖啡馆里辩论，或是在悉尼参加交换项目。看着这些精彩的生活片段，你可能会问：为什么除了我，每个人的生活都如此完美？)”以及第二段“After seeing such contrasts, curiosity about the world slowly turns into anxiety— or even frustration.(看到这样的反差后，对世界的好奇心慢慢变成了焦虑，甚至沮丧)”可知，第一段通过描述社交媒体上他人看似完美的生活，引出了读者可能产生的焦虑情绪，从而为后文讨论社交媒体带来的焦虑问题奠定了基础。故选D项。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中“Worse still, the more of these vlogs a person watches, the more similar contents the platform feeds them. Without realizing it, young people may get trapped in an information cocoon created by the platform.(更糟糕的是，一个人看的这些视频博客越多，平台就会给他们推送越多相似的内容。在不知不觉中，年轻人可能会陷入平台创造的information cocoon中)”可知，年轻人看的视频越多，平台推送的内容越相似，最终他们会陷入一个信息受限的状态，由此可推知，“information cocoon”意为“用户获取有限信息的状态”。故选A项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段“It’s also important to ask questions. Why was this posted? Who benefits from me seeing this? That video of students debating in a cafe may well be sponsored by the cafe. Ads, sponsorships and algorithms often decide what we see.(提出问题也很重要。为什么要发布这个?谁从我看到这个中受益?那段学生在咖啡馆辩论的视频很可能是由咖啡馆赞助的。广告、赞助和算法往往决定着我们看到什么)”可知，作者提到咖啡馆辩论的视频，是为了举例说明，我们应该对看到的内容提出质疑(如其发布动机、背后利益)，从而论证了“提出问题”的重要性。故选D项。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“When we use apps wisely, we can go from being passive viewers to active users and creators. I recommend that these platforms should provide us with new approaches to learning and growing, not leave us feeling stressed.(当我们明智地使用应用程序时，我们可以从被动的观众变成积极的用户和创造者。我建议这些平台应该为我们提供新的学习和成长方式，而不是让我们感到压力)”可知，作者建议平台应该为用户提供新的学习和成长方式。故选A项。 D The AI-powered chatbot ChatGPT is taking the Internet by storm with its impressive language capabilities, helping to draw up legal contracts as well as write fiction. But it turns out that the underlying technology could also help spot the early signs of Alzheimer’s disease. The researchers tested their approach on a collection of 237 audio recordings from healthy volunteers and Alzheimer’s patients, which were first converted to text using a pre-trained speech recognition model. To enlist the help of GPT-3, the researchers made use of one of its less well- known capabilities. AI makes it possible to feed a chunk of text into the model and get back what is known as an “embedding” — a numerical representation of a piece of text that encodes its meaning and can be used to assess its similarity to other text. While most machine learning deals with word embeddings, one of the novel features of GPT-3, says Liang, a computer science professor, is that it’s powerful enough to generate embeddings for entire paragraphs. And because of the model’s vast size and the amount of text it was trained on, it is also able to capture very rich representations of the text. The researchers used this capability to create embeddings for all of the transcripts from both Alzheimer’s patients and healthy individuals. When tested on unseen text, the best classifier achieved an accuracy of 80 per cent, as reported in a paper in PLOS Digital Health. This was significantly better than the 74 per cent the researchers achieved using a more conventional approach to the speech data, which relied on manually annotating features by experts. While the team achieves state-of-the-art results, Francois, an AI researcher at the University of Toronto, says relying on privately owned models to carry out this kind of research does raise some problems. “Part of the AI claims is that these models can’t inspect or modify (修改) their internals,” he said. Nevertheless, Liang and his colleagues are planning to see if they can be applied in a doctor’s office to assist in the detection of early-stage Alzheimer’s. 12. What is the text mainly about? A. The wide applications of ChatGPT in daily work. B. The potential of GPT-3 in treating Alzheimer’s disease. C. A comparison of different AI models in medical treatment. D. An AI-based way for detecting early signs of Alzheimer’s disease. 13 What makes GPT-3 powerful according to the text? A. Its small model size and simple structure. B. Its large capacity with other classifiers. C. Its large scale and plentiful training text. D. Its good performance in processing word. 14. What problem does Francois point out about the technology? A. It can’t be widely applied in medicine. B It relies on experts to mark speech data features by hand. C. It fails to get the best results in testing Alzheimer’s disease. D. It can not adjust the internal structure of private models. 15. What do Liang and his colleagues plan to do next? A. Improve the model’s accuracy. B. Develop a more efficient model. C. Reduce the reliance on privately owned AI models. D. Apply the technology in a doctor’s office for Alzheimer’s detection. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. D 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了基于人工智能的检测阿尔茨海默病早期迹象的方法，以及该技术目前存在的问题和未来应用计划。 【12题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其第一段“The AI-powered chatbot ChatGPT is taking the Internet by storm with its impressive language capabilities, helping to draw up legal contracts as well as write fiction. But it turns out that the underlying technology could also help spot the early signs of Alzheimer’s disease.(由人工智能驱动的聊天机器人ChatGPT在互联网上掀起了一阵热潮，其语言能力令人惊叹，它不仅能起草法律合同，还能创作小说。但事实证明，其底层技术还能够帮助早期发现阿尔茨海默病的迹象。)”引出主题，即基于人工智能的检测阿尔茨海默病早期迹象的方法。接着文章详细介绍了研究人员如何利用GPT-3生成文本嵌入，并通过对比健康个体和阿尔茨海默病患者的文本嵌入来检测疾病，以及该技术的准确性和存在的问题等。因此，文章的主要内容是介绍一种基于人工智能的检测阿尔茨海默病早期迹象的方法。故选D项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“And because of the model’s vast size and the amount of text it was trained on, it is also able to capture very rich representations of the text.(由于模型的规模庞大，以及用于训练的文本量巨大，它还能够捕捉到非常丰富的文本表示。)”可知，GPT-3之所以强大，是因为它的规模庞大，以及用于训练的文本量巨大。故选C项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段“Part of the AI claims is that these models can’t inspect or modify (修改) their internals(人工智能的部分说法是，这些模型无法检查或修改其内部结构)”可知，Francois指出这项技术存在的问题是它无法调整私有模型的内部结构。故选D项。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Nevertheless, Liang and his colleagues are planning to see if they can be applied in a doctor’s office to assist in the detection of early-stage Alzheimer’s. (尽管如此，梁和他的同事们仍计划看看是否可以在医生的办公室里应用这些技术，以协助检测早期阿尔茨海默病。)”可知，梁和他的同事们计划下一步在医生的办公室里应用这项技术来检测早期阿尔茨海默病。故选D项。 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。 Most of the world’s glaciers (冰川) are in the polar regions. The glaciers in Antarctica and Greenland make up about 99 percent of the world’s total, said the US National Snow and Ice Data Center. ____16____. This leads to higher sea levels, which can cause floods in coastal areas. Protecting glaciers, especially in polar regions, is important. With polar tourism growing rapidly, ____17____. One way to help is by choosing your transportation carefully, according to the BBC. While cruise ships are a popular way to travel to the poles, they bring large groups of people and often don’t benefit the local community. Planes can also be harmful because they release a lot of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. ____18____. Traveling by train can reduce your carbon emissions by up to 90 percent, and some parts of the Arctic, like Norway, are easy to reach by train. ____19____. It has a much lower environmental impact compared to large cruise ships. These smaller ships typically limit passenger numbers, reducing fuel use, waste production, and the physical disturbance to pristine habitats. In brief, there are more environmentally friendly alternatives for traveling to such remote areas. ____20____. Shipping food to the poles uses a lot of energy and increases carbon emissions. In places like Greenland, locals hunt seals as part of their traditional life. Although eating seals might seem unusual, it has a much lower environmental impact than importing meats from other places. A. it’s appealing to explore the polar regions B. Many tourists are eager to take photos of glaciers C. Instead, taking a train is a better option if you can D. However, as temperatures rise, glaciers are disappearing rapidly E. Meanwhile, think about the food you eat while visiting these remote areas F. If you want to be more eco-friendly, you can consider traveling by small boat G. it’s important to know how to reduce the impact on these unstable environments 【答案】16. D 17. G 18. C 19. F 20.

It was Granny Smith.”以及后文“She sent her love, asked us about school, assured us that all the things”可知，电话是奶奶打来的，祖孙之间是在电话里聊天。故选D。 【25题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：她送上她的关爱，询问我们的学业，并且向我们保证，所有我们想要的东西都会在圣诞节前送到。A. wanted想要；B. bought购买；C. lost丢失；D. found找到。结合上文“She sent her love, asked us about school, and assured us that all the things ”以及下文“Sure enough, the phone rang on Thursday to let us know our package had arrived.”可知，奶奶在电话中安抚孙辈，承诺会把他们想要的物品在圣诞节前寄过来，符合家人之间的温情表达。故选A。 【26题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：所以晚饭后，我们赶紧去了邮政局。A. head头，首领；B. post邮政，邮递，邮寄；C. school学校；D. community社区。根据上文“our package had arrived”可知，包裹到了，收取包裹需要前往邮局，post office为固定搭配，意为“邮局”。故选B。 【27题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：一股气味扑面而来：混合着熟食、油脂、小水果蛋糕和香烟的味道。A. fog雾；B. sound声音；C. smell气味；D. light光线。根据后文“burst into the air: a mix of cooked meat, grease, small fruitcake, and cigarette smoke. ”可知，此处指烤肉、油脂、小水果蛋糕、香烟等各种东西所产生的味道混合，散发在空气中。故选C。 【28题详解】 考查副词词义辨析。句意：然后，装饰性地包裹着的包装纸里，是属于我们的南方圣诞节。A. roughly粗糙地，粗略地；B. identically相同地；C. carelessly粗心地；D. decoratively装饰性地，别致地。结合空后“wrapped paper was our southern Christmas”以及后文提到的“fancy paper and bows(精美的包装纸和蝴蝶结)”可知，包裹的包装纸具有南方圣诞节特色，包裹体现节日氛围。“decoratively”符合礼物包装风格。故选D。 【29题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：用精美包装纸包裹、系着丝带蝴蝶结的礼物等待着被放到圣诞树下。A. presents礼物；B. supplies供应品，物资；C. materials材料；D. prizes奖品。根据“under the Christmas tree”以及圣诞节的习俗可知，树下摆放的是包装好的礼物。故选A。 【30题详解】 考查副词词义辨析。句意：牛皮纸里整整齐齐叠放着给我们每人一套的新睡衣，还有两包适合我俩尺码的五条装“Fruit of the Loom”内衣。A.

In 40. that##which 41. diverse 42. a 43. benefiting 44. were influenced 45. given 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国著名教育家和改革家陶行知，他在20世纪上半叶致力于推动中国大众教育，特别是在农村地区，提出了“生活即教育”“社会即学校”等教育理念。 【36题详解】 考查名词。句意：陶行知是中国著名的教育家和改革家，他在20世纪上半叶致力于推动中国大众教育，特别是在农村地区。根据句意和空格前形容词renowned可知，应填入名词educator作表语，意为“教育家”。故填educator。 【37题详解】 考查时态。句意：他反对遵循旧规则和模仿外国方式，并勇敢地改进了现有的教育。improve(改进)作并列谓语，与主语He之间主动关系，讲述过去的事情，用一般过去时态。故填improved。 【38题详解】 考查名词。句意：他还建议女性上学。可数名词female在宾语从句中作主语，意为“女性”，结合句意，应用复数形式表泛指。故填females。 【39题详解】 考查介词。句意：通过这种方式，他首次在中国创造了男女同校的新观念。in this way为固定短语，意为“通过这种方式”；句首单词首字母大写。故填In。 【40题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：陶行知的“生活即教育”思想与杜威的“教育即生活”思想不同，后者倾向于将教育视为一种生活。“_____ tends to treat education as a life”为限制性定语从句，修饰先行词idea，指物，关系词代替先行词在定语从句中作主语，应使用关系代词that或者which引导该从句。故填that/which。 【41题详解】 考查形容词。句意：它强调了多样化教育形式的价值，可以将教育从学科材料扩展到人类生活。提示词修饰名词forms，用形容词diverse作定语，意为“多样化的”。故填diverse。 【42题详解】 考查冠词。句意：陶行知“社会即学校”的思想也是他对中国农村现实反应的一种产物。product是可数名词单数形式，表示“一种产物”，应使用不定冠词修饰，且product发音以辅音音素开头，应使用不定冠词a。故填a。 【43题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：学校和社会之间没有界限，老师和学生都可以从整个社会学习，使整个社会受益。“(benefit) the entire society”作结果状语，benefit(使受益)用非谓语动词形式，与其逻辑主语(整个句子描述的事实)之间是主动关系，应使用现在分词表主动和自然而然的结果。故填benefiting。 【44题详解】 考查动词时态和语态。句意：陶行知的教育思想和实践不仅受到杜威的影响，还受到明代中国新儒家学者王阳明的哲学的影响。influence(影响)是谓语动词，与主语Tao’s educational thought and practices之间是被动关系，讲述过去的事情，应用一般过去时的被动语态，又因主语是复数(思想和实践)，谓语动词也应使用复数形式。故填were influenced。 【45题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：陶行知甚至将自己原来的名字“知行”改为“行知”，反映了新儒家的流行语，即一旦获得了知识(知)，那么行动(行)就容易了。give(给)作定语，用非谓语动词形式，与其逻辑主语名词name之间是被动关系，应用过去分词表被动。故填given。 第四部分 写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节(满分15分) 46. 近期你们学校举办了主题为“中医文化体验日”的活动，校英语报组织同学们分享自己参与活动的经历。请你写一篇短文投稿。内容包括： 1. 你参加活动的经历； 2. 提倡中医文化。 注意： 1. 写作词数应为80个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】【参考范文】 Recently, I took part in our school’s “Traditional Chinese Medicine Culture Day”, which proved to be an enlightening experience.

For her birthday, Renae’s grandmother surprised her with an adorable gray puppy named Chloe. From the very start, the two were inseparable. “She was my best friend,” Renae said. Every ounce of love Renae gave, the little dog returned tenfold. “She was such a sweet dog,” Renae said. “She’d lick your face forever if you didn’t stop her.” But when Renae was 14, her father got a new job that came with a terrible problem: He’d be working from home, and the house needed to be free of audible (听得见的) distractions. “Chloe was very yappy (喜欢叫嚷的),” Renae said. “I was just a kid, so I didn’t have any choice in the matter. I didn’t want to get rid of my dog. I just felt so sick and sad about it.” With no easier option, the family sent Chloe to an animal shelter. Before saying goodbye, the staff told them they would implant a microchip (微芯片) with a unique ID number in Chloe. If she was lost or brought back, her identity could be confirmed. Though they were optimistic that the dog would find a new home with people who loved her, they couldn’t know for sure. “I called the animal shelter society to try to find out what happened to her,” Renae said, “but they couldn’t tell me anything. So I never knew.” Renae went on to go to college, graduate, get married, and had a child of her own. But her family didn’t feel quite complete. Remembering the joy that having a dog had brought her as a kid, Renae wanted her daughter to experience the same. 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。 One day she saw a post on Facebook about a senior dog. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ But Renae realized they can scan the microchip to test whether it was Chloe. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】【参考范文】 One day she saw a post on Facebook about a senior dog. The dog in the photograph looked a lot like Chloe. She decided to adopt this older dog. When she met the dog, Renae was struck with a familiar feeling. The dog ran up to her and started licking her face. It reminded her so much of her old dog that the emotion overwhelmed her. “I was crying. I just knew in my heart that it was my Chloe.” Still, many years had passed since Renae saw Chloe, so the notion seemed to be little more than wishful thinking. Her whole family thought she was crazy. But Renae realized they can scan the microchip to test whether it was Chloe. She took the dog to the animal shelter to have its chip scanned to confirm its ID number. “The numbers were a match,” Renae says. “I felt like I’d won the lottery.” After years of thinking she’d never see her dog again, Renae is overjoyed to have Chloe back. “I got so excited to come home and see her,” she said. As for Chloe, “she’s made herself right at home,” Renae says. “And why shouldn’t she? She knows that she’ll be with me forever.” 【解析】 【导语】本文以人与宠物之间跨越多年的情感羁绊为线索，讲述了独生女 Nicole Renae童年时与爱犬Chloe相依相伴，后因家庭原因无奈将其送往收容所，多年后她在领养老年犬时意外发现对方正是Chloe，通过微芯片确认身份后，最终得以重逢。 【详解】 1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“一天，她在Facebook上看到一条关于一只老年狗的帖子。”以及第二段首句“但Renae意识到他们可以通过扫描微芯片来检测那是不是Chloe。”可知，第一段可描写Renae觉得帖子里的老年犬很像Chloe、决定领养它以及领养时老年犬的表现让Renae觉得它就是Chloe。 ②由第二段首句内容“但Renae意识到他们可以通过扫描微芯片来检测那是不是Chloe。”可知，第二段可描写Renae带老年犬前往动物收容所扫描芯片，以及确认老年犬就是Chloe后Renae的喜悦之情。 2. 续写线索：看到领养帖子——心生熟悉之感——决定领养——坚信爱犬归来——家人表示质疑——扫描芯片验证——确认身份重逢 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①决定：decide to/make a resolution to ②向……跑去：run up to/rush up to ③确认：confirm/identify 情绪类 ①激动：excited/thrilled ②欣喜若狂：overjoyed/over the moon/delighted 【点睛】【高分句型1】When she met the dog, Renae was struck with a familiar feeling.

But as the editors and critics, we selected a group of pictures with fantastic scenes and touching emotions. Train Dreams Clint Bentley’s remarkable adaptation of Denis Johnson’s novel about a woodcutter at the start of the 20th century, that burning urge to be remembered, to make it significant, turns into a more meaningful goal: to feel. It’s in the present, in the whispered words of a loved one and a child’s laughter. If I Had Legs I’d Kick You Written and directed by Mary Bronstein, it tells the story of Linda, a woman on the edge of a breakdown, as the roof literally collapses on her home while she balances the medical needs of her sick child and patients at her therapy practice. It is an unforgettable experience of empathy and an understanding of the chaotic, imperfect essence of parenting. Eephus It takes place on the final day at a local Massachusetts ballfield planned for replacement by a new middle school. It is a detailed film. The accuracy of the gameplay — which includes the proper positioning of the fielders — provides further reliability. Carson Lund, the director, either placed the camera from a fielder’s view or allowed the film to linger on the moments where nothing yet everything seems to happen. 1. What is the common feature of the selected movies? A. They are set in the 20th century. B. They are directed by the English. C. They are amazing and moving stories. D. They are adapted from literary works. 2. What does the woodcutter in Train Dreams finally value most? A. Achieving great success. B. Enjoying present moments. C. Being remembered by others. D. Following the words of a lover. 3. What makes Eephus a reliable film according to the text? A. The famous director. B. The accurate description. C. The unique camera angles. D. The historical background. B Being a student at Cambridge University gives you a great many opportunities to take part in its traditional activities. Rowing is among the most popular. In my first term as a student, I decided to give this sport a go and joined my college boat club. One of the first things I learned was that rowing training comes in two parts: land training and water training. Land training on erg machines helped me get used to the basics of correct movement, techniques and rhythm. Since rowing is very much a team sport, all eight rowers in the boat must move together as one in order to deliver an efficient and powerful stroke. Water training allowed me to apply all the techniques to the context of a boat on water. There were certainly more challenges on water than on land because it was hard for us to keep our boat balanced. The first few sessions out on the water were sometimes difficult but gradually helped us improve our confidence and trust in each other. Halfway through the term I also decided to give coxing a go. I was not aware of the important role a coxswain (舵手) played in rowing before I became one myself. Having to do many things at the same time was certainly a challenge. Controlling a boat is not always easy, especially around tight corners of the river. Making the right decisions about what my rowers should do sometimes felt like a lot of responsibility. The complex aspects of this role felt like a great opportunity for me to develop some key decision-making skills which I didn’t expect before joining a boat club. By the end of the first term at university, my team had competed in two races—Clare Novice Regatta and the Fairbairns’ Cup. I was initially really nervous before these races, but bit by bit they became very exciting. Looking back on this term of rowing and coxing, it has been a wonderful experience full of little surprises along the way. Rowing really helped me connect better with my own body. 4. Why did the author join the boat club in college? A. To develop teamwork skills. B. To take part in a famous race. C. To try a popular traditional sport. D. To make many like-minded friends. 5. What can we learn from the land training of rowing? A. It is much harder than the water training. B. It helps one get basic skills in rowing. C. It applies techniques to a boat model. D. It teaches how to keep a boat balanced. 6. What can we infer about the role of a coxswain? A. It needs one to handle multiple tasks at a time. B. It is a challenging job with little responsibility. C. It is simple to control a boat around tight corners. D. It offers a good chance to make quick decisions. 7. Which of the following best describes the author? A. Cautious and anxious. B. Curious and responsible. C. Passionate and humorous. D. Dependent and patient. C Imagine this: You’re tapping on your phone. Instantly, you’re taken to vlogs on Xiaohongshu, where peers are speaking fluent English with foreigners, debating in cafes or attending exchange programs in Sydney. Seeing these glamorous lives, you may ask: Why does everyone else’s life look perfect — except mine? Social media gives us a glimpse into lives we might never see otherwise. However, it also makes the differences between people’s lives more apparent. While international school students can wear makeup without being judged for it, others wake up before sunrise, study through lunch, and stay at school until 10:30 p. m. After seeing such contrasts, curiosity about the world slowly turns into anxiety — or even frustration. But what you see online isn’t the full picture. Most students in the country live similar lives to yours, but they simply don’t share them online. Even if they do, their posts are rarely noticed or recommended by algorithms. Worse still, the more of these vlogs a person watches, the more similar contents the platform feeds them. Without realizing it, young people may get trapped in an information cocoon created by the platform. In today’s world of endless social media, knowing how to question the content we see is an important skill. How can we stay logical and see the real world clearly? That’s what matters. We need to remember that social media is naturally selective. People usually share moments of success, beauty or excitement, not their daily struggles, failures or ordinary routines. Lighting, camera angles and filters (滤镜) can change how things appear. It’s also important to ask questions. Why was this posted? Who benefits from me seeing this? That video of students debating in a cafe may well be sponsored by the cafe. Ads, sponsorships and algorithms often decide what we see. Platforms also have a responsibility. They should set rules that require influencers to clearly label sponsored or edited contents. It’s also important to monitor platforms in ways that protect mental health. When we use apps wisely, we can go from being passive viewers to active users and creators. I recommend that these platforms should provide us with new approaches to learning and growing, not leave us feeling stressed. 8. What is the author’s purpose in writing the first paragraph? A. To show the appealing online lives. B. To explain how to live a great digital life. C. To prove that social media can cause some problems. D. To introduce the topic of social media anxiety. 9.

D The AI-powered chatbot ChatGPT is taking the Internet by storm with its impressive language capabilities, helping to draw up legal contracts as well as write fiction. But it turns out that the underlying technology could also help spot the early signs of Alzheimer’s disease. The researchers tested their approach on a collection of 237 audio recordings from healthy volunteers and Alzheimer’s patients, which were first converted to text using a pre-trained speech recognition model. To enlist the help of GPT-3, the researchers made use of one of its less well- known capabilities. AI makes it possible to feed a chunk of text into the model and get back what is known as an “embedding” — a numerical representation of a piece of text that encodes its meaning and can be used to assess its similarity to other text. While most machine learning deals with word embeddings, one of the novel features of GPT-3, says Liang, a computer science professor, is that it’s powerful enough to generate embeddings for entire paragraphs. And because of the model’s vast size and the amount of text it was trained on, it is also able to capture very rich representations of the text. The researchers used this capability to create embeddings for all of the transcripts from both Alzheimer’s patients and healthy individuals. When tested on unseen text, the best classifier achieved an accuracy of 80 per cent, as reported in a paper in PLOS Digital Health. This was significantly better than the 74 per cent the researchers achieved using a more conventional approach to the speech data, which relied on manually annotating features by experts. While the team achieves state-of-the-art results, Francois, an AI researcher at the University of Toronto, says relying on privately owned models to carry out this kind of research does raise some problems. “Part of the AI claims is that these models can’t inspect or modify (修改) their internals,” he said. Nevertheless, Liang and his colleagues are planning to see if they can be applied in a doctor’s office to assist in the detection of early-stage Alzheimer’s. 12. What is the text mainly about? A. The wide applications of ChatGPT in daily work. B. The potential of GPT-3 in treating Alzheimer’s disease. C. A comparison of different AI models in medical treatment. D. An AI-based way for detecting early signs of Alzheimer’s disease. 13. What makes GPT-3 powerful according to the text? A. Its small model size and simple structure. B. Its large capacity with other classifiers. C. Its large scale and plentiful training text. D. Its good performance in processing word. 14. What problem does Francois point out about the technology? A. It can’t be widely applied in medicine. B. It relies on experts to mark speech data features by hand. C. It fails to get the best results in testing Alzheimer’s disease. D. It can not adjust the internal structure of private models. 15. What do Liang and his colleagues plan to do next? A. Improve the model’s accuracy. B. Develop a more efficient model. C Reduce the reliance on privately owned AI models. D. Apply the technology in a doctor’s office for Alzheimer’s detection. 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。 Most of the world’s glaciers (冰川) are in the polar regions. The glaciers in Antarctica and Greenland make up about 99 percent of the world’s total, said the US National Snow and Ice Data Center. ____16____. This leads to higher sea levels, which can cause floods in coastal areas. Protecting glaciers, especially in polar regions, is important. With polar tourism growing rapidly, ____17____. One way to help is by choosing your transportation carefully, according to the BBC. While cruise ships are a popular way to travel to the poles, they bring large groups of people and often don’t benefit the local community. Planes can also be harmful because they release a lot of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. ____18____. Traveling by train can reduce your carbon emissions by up to 90 percent, and some parts of the Arctic, like Norway, are easy to reach by train. ____19____. It has a much lower environmental impact compared to large cruise ships. These smaller ships typically limit passenger numbers, reducing fuel use, waste production, and the physical disturbance to pristine habitats. In brief, there are more environmentally friendly alternatives for traveling to such remote areas. ____20____. Shipping food to the poles uses a lot of energy and increases carbon emissions. In places like Greenland, locals hunt seals as part of their traditional life. Although eating seals might seem unusual, it has a much lower environmental impact than importing meats from other places. A. it’s appealing to explore the polar regions B. Many tourists are eager to take photos of glaciers C. Instead, taking a train is a better option if you can D. However, as temperatures rise, glaciers are disappearing rapidly E. Meanwhile think about the food you eat while visiting these remote areas F. If you want to be more eco-friendly, you can consider traveling by small boat G. it’s important to know how to reduce the impact on these unstable environments 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。 It was Christmas time, 1974.

But that all changed when she turned ten. For her birthday, Renae’s grandmother surprised her with an adorable gray puppy named Chloe. From the very start, the two were inseparable. “She was my best friend,” Renae said. Every ounce of love Renae gave, the little dog returned tenfold. “She was such a sweet dog,” Renae said. “She’d lick your face forever if you didn’t stop her.” But when Renae was 14, her father got a new job that came with a terrible problem: He’d be working from home, and the house needed to be free of audible (听得见的) distractions. “Chloe was very yappy (喜欢叫嚷),” Renae said. “I was just a kid, so I didn’t have any choice in the matter. I didn’t want to get rid of my dog. I just felt so sick and sad about it.” With no easier option, the family sent Chloe to an animal shelter. Before saying goodbye, the staff told them they would implant a microchip (微芯片) with a unique ID number in Chloe. If she was lost or brought back, her identity could be confirmed. Though they were optimistic that the dog would find a new home with people who loved her, they couldn’t know for sure. “I called the animal shelter society to try to find out what happened to her,” Renae said, “but they couldn’t tell me anything. So I never knew.” Renae went on to go to college, graduate, get married, and had a child of her own. But her family didn’t feel quite complete. Remembering the joy that having a dog had brought her as a kid, Renae wanted her daughter to experience the same. 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。 One day she saw a post on Facebook about a senior dog. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ But Renae realized they can scan the microchip to test whether it was Chloe. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
