Our 5-year-old daughter Cathy missed him very much, so Cathy and I were flying to Florida to spend a week with him. The plane was full. Because we did not get our boarding passes (登机牌) until we arrived at the gate, Cathy and I couldn’t get seats together. Cathy was nervous about the trip and had counted on me to read to her the whole way. She put lots of her favorite storybooks in her bag the day before. I asked the passengers next to me if they would change places with Cathy or me. They all said no. Meanwhile, a mother and her two children several rows ahead of us were also in the same situation. The mother could hold her baby, but her 6-year-old son had to sit with strangers. And nobody offered to help her. At that time, I saw a group of students on our flight. The students’ leader stood up and said to the woman, “Ma’am, I think we can help you.” He spent 5 minutes rearranging (重排) his group so there was space for the family to sit together. A smile came on the mother’s face. Suddenly, the man sitting next to the leader turned around to me and asked, “Would you and your daughter like our seats?” We changed seats and being together made our trip so much better. Would that man have offered us his seat if the leader hadn’t done so for the mom and her children? I am not sure. But I do know that kindness is contagious (传染的) and good acts cause more good ones. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 6. What problem did the writer meet after boarding the plane? A. She couldn’t find her seat. B.

She put lots of her favorite storybooks in her bag the day before.”可知，凯西为旅途准备了很多故事书，指望作者全程读给她听，counted on与expected“期望，指望”意思相近。故选D。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章内容，事件顺序为：“The students’ leader stood up and said to the woman, ‘Ma’am, I think we can help you.’ He spent 5 minutes rearranging his group so there was space for the family to sit together.”学生领队为重排座位帮助那位母亲和她的孩子坐在一起 (b-d)，“Suddenly, the man sitting next to the leader turned around to me and asked, ‘Would you and your daughter like our seats?’”之后一位男士主动给作者让座 (a)，“We changed seats and being together made our trip so much better.”最后作者和女儿坐到了一起 (c)，正确顺序是b-d-a-c。故选B。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Suddenly, the man sitting next to the leader turned around to me and asked, ‘Would you and your daughter like our seats?’ We changed seats and being together made our trip so much better.”以及前文凯西指望作者读故事书可知，作者最终能和女儿坐在一起，大概率可以给女儿读故事了。故选C。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。根据“But I do know that kindness is contagious (传染的) and good acts cause more good ones.”可知，作者写这个故事的目的是想告诉我们善良会带来更多善良。故选C。 C Have you ever imagined being able to communicate with your pets at home and let them understand everything you say? It sounds too good to be true, but scientists have started using AI to help communicate with animals. AI allows humans to use technology to watch and understand the sounds and signals (信号) animals use, so we can try to speak back to them. By decoding (解码) recordings of animals talking to one another, humans can communicate in their language, and it could be better than teaching them to use human sign language. Scientist Karen Bakker said that AI is already helping humans communicate with bats (蝙蝠) and bees. This could change what we know about nature and the relationships between humans and animals. Karen explained how scientist Yossi Yovel had used recordings and AI to understand bats. “Bats argue for food, they communicate differently between genders (性别); they have their names, or ‘signature calls’ (专属名号),” she said. “But unlike human mothers who raise the pitch (声调) of their voices when talking to babies, bat mothers lower the pitch.” “When bees ‘speak’ to one another, they use body movements and the sounds to communicate,” Karen said. She said scientists now know how bees say things such as “be quiet” and “stop”. Scientist Tim Landgraf even created a robot bee that entered a hive (蜂房) and was able to communicate with the bees when it wanted them to stop doing something or fly. Perhaps soon, humans will be able to communicate with more animals. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 11. How does the writer start the passage? A. By telling a story. B. By listing facts. C. By asking a question. D. By giving examples. 12. How do scientists communicate with animals using AI? A. By decoding the recordings of animals’ communication. B. By teaching animals human sign language. C. By changing the relationship between humans and animals. D. By learning animals’ language from books. 13. What can we know about bats and bees according to the passage? A. Bats have special names for each other. B. Bats lower their voices when talking to each other. C. Bees work as a team and never fight for food. D. Bees use different sounds and movements when talking to different genders. 14. Why is the example of the robot bee mentioned? A. To show that bees can follow humans’ orders easily. B. To explain how bees use body movements to communicate. C. To prove that AI can help humans communicate back to animals. D. To introduce the new technology of creating robot animals. 15. What’s the best title of the passage? A. The Use of AI Technology B. Different Communicating Ways Between Animals C. Bees’ and Bats’ Special Languages D. AI and Communication with Animals 【答案】11. C 12. A 13. A 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了科学家利用人工智能技术帮助人类与动物沟通的相关情况，包括沟通方式、已取得的成果及未来前景。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章开头“Have you ever imagined being able to communicate with your pets at home and let them understand everything you say?”可知，作者通过提出一个问题开启全文。故选C。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据“AI allows humans to use technology to watch and understand the sounds and signals animals use... By decoding recordings of animals talking to one another, humans can communicate in their language”可知，科学家利用人工智能通过解码动物交流的录音来与动物沟通。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Bats argue for food, they communicate differently between genders; they have their names, or ‘signature calls’”可知，蝙蝠彼此之间有专属名号，即特殊的名字。故选A。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据前文介绍人工智能帮助人类解读动物的交流方式，结合“Scientist Tim Landgraf even created a robot bee that entered a hive and was able to communicate with the bees”可知，提及机器蜜蜂的例子是为了证明人工智能能帮助人类回应动物的沟通。故选C。 【15题详解】 最佳标题题。通读全文可知，文章围绕“人工智能”和“与动物沟通”两大核心展开，“人工智能与动物沟通”能概括文章主旨。故选D。 D Some schools have started asking parents to put their phones away when they pick up their kids in the afternoon. They say students who are excited to be picked up at the end of a long day often find their parents staring (盯着看) into their phones. Some parents think the idea is okay with them, while others disagree with the request. What do you think? ____16____ Yes—adults should set an example Many children have limits (限制) on how much time they’re allowed to spend on screens each day.

No—adults can make their own choices ____19____ They should be allowed to make their own decisions about when, where, and how they use their phones.

Our 5-year-old daughter Cathy missed him very much, so Cathy and I were flying to Florida to spend a week with him. The plane was full. Because we did not get our boarding passes (登机牌) until we arrived at the gate, Cathy and I couldn’t get seats together. Cathy was nervous about the trip and had counted on me to read to her the whole way. She put lots of her favorite storybooks in her bag the day before. I asked the passengers next to me if they would change places with Cathy or me. They all said no. Meanwhile, a mother and her two children several rows ahead of us were also in the same situation. The mother could hold her baby, but her 6-year-old son had to sit with strangers. And nobody offered to help her. At that time, I saw a group of students on our flight. The students’ leader stood up and said to the woman, “Ma’am, I think we can help you.” He spent 5 minutes rearranging (重排) his group so there was space for the family to sit together. A smile came on the mother’s face. Suddenly, the man sitting next to the leader turned around to me and asked, “Would you and your daughter like our seats?” We changed seats and being together made our trip so much better. Would that man have offered us his seat if the leader hadn’t done so for the mom and her children? I am not sure. But I do know that kindness is contagious (传染的) and good acts cause more good ones. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 6. What problem did the writer meet after boarding the plane? A. She couldn’t find her seat. B.

To criticize (批评) the coldness of some passengers. C Have you ever imagined being able to communicate with your pets at home and let them understand everything you say? It sounds too good to be true, but scientists have started using AI to help communicate with animals. AI allows humans to use technology to watch and understand the sounds and signals (信号) animals use, so we can try to speak back to them. By decoding (解码) recordings of animals talking to one another, humans can communicate in their language, and it could be better than teaching them to use human sign language. Scientist Karen Bakker said that AI is already helping humans communicate with bats (蝙蝠) and bees. This could change what we know about nature and the relationships between humans and animals. Karen explained how scientist Yossi Yovel had used recordings and AI to understand bats. “Bats argue for food, they communicate differently between genders (性别); they have their names, or ‘signature calls’ (专属名号),” she said. “But unlike human mothers who raise the pitch (声调) of their voices when talking to babies, bat mothers lower the pitch.” “When bees ‘speak’ to one another, they use body movements and the sounds to communicate,” Karen said. She said scientists now know how bees say things such as “be quiet” and “stop”. Scientist Tim Landgraf even created a robot bee that entered a hive (蜂房) and was able to communicate with the bees when it wanted them to stop doing something or fly. Perhaps soon, humans will be able to communicate with more animals. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 11. How does the writer start the passage? A. By telling a story. B. By listing facts. C. By asking a question. D. By giving examples. 12. How do scientists communicate with animals using AI? A. By decoding the recordings of animals’ communication. B. By teaching animals human sign language. C. By changing the relationship between humans and animals. D. By learning animals’ language from books. 13. What can we know about bats and bees according to the passage? A. Bats have special names for each other. B. Bats lower their voices when talking to each other. C Bees work as a team and never fight for food. D. Bees use different sounds and movements when talking to different genders. 14. Why is the example of the robot bee mentioned? A. To show that bees can follow humans’ orders easily. B. To explain how bees use body movements to communicate. C. To prove that AI can help humans communicate back to animals. D. To introduce the new technology of creating robot animals. 15. What’s the best title of the passage? A. The Use of AI Technology B. Different Communicating Ways Between Animals C. Bees’ and Bats’ Special Languages D. AI and Communication with Animals D Some schools have started asking parents to put their phones away when they pick up their kids in the afternoon. They say students who are excited to be picked up at the end of a long day often find their parents staring (盯着看) into their phones. Some parents think the idea is okay with them, while others disagree with the request. What do you think? ____16____ Yes—adults should set an example Many children have limits (限制) on how much time they’re allowed to spend on screens each day.
