For example, a good-looking actor or actress can get noticed quickly. Moreover, a good appearance can boost our self-confidence. We feel good if we look good. However, there is a danger of attaching too much importance to appearance, as it does not always indicate what kind of character one has, or what skills one may possess. So in my opinion, we should take care of our physical appearance, but “Never judge a book by its cover.” 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司2 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025-2026学年高二英语选择性必修第三册单元自测（天津专用） Unit 1·培优卷 学校:___________班级：___________姓名：___________分数：___________ （时间：100分钟，满分：130分） 注意事项： 1．本试卷分第Ⅰ卷（选择题）和第Ⅱ卷（非选择题）两部分。答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2．回答第Ⅰ卷时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。写在本试卷上无效。 3．回答第Ⅱ卷时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 4．考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分：英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分） 第一节：单项填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 从A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 1．—Would you help me lift this heavy box? — .

Her eyes swept from the decorations on the wall to the red Turkish mat on the floor. She stopped at a glass and yellow cake trolley — a gift from my mother. On top sat a manuscript: the handwritten memoirs of a ninety-nine-year-old World War II veteran. His daughter had asked for my help turning his stories into a literary family legacy. The investigator moved to the living room. A curtain, trimmed with crystal beads, hung from a French window. The sunlight made the crystals swing, casting rainbows on the ceiling. “I made it myself,” I said. “I love the cherry-red fabric.” She nodded and approached the bookshelf. She ran her finger along the spines, mouthing titles of autobiography, then moved to a pink wardrobe filled with family photos, a globe, and travel souvenirs. Room by room, she made notes. When she finished, she said. “I’ve got everything I need. A full profile on you.” As I read her analysis, I learned more about my preferences, talents, and style — I hadn’t fully recognized before. This profile became the first step toward designing a life aligned with my unique joys and skills. In truth, the private investigator was me. I learned of this self-discovery exercise called The Private-Eye Game. It opened my eyes to my authentic self, guiding me to create a lifestyle that truly reflected my talents and desires. The exercise is simple: examine your life from this detective perspective. In your home or workspace, look closely at your belongings and note what they reveal about you. Search for subtle clues that tell you about your interests and talents. Once you’ve gathered information, write a “portrait of yourself” — a detailed profile. Reflect on it: Are there surprises? When I did this, I realized my wardrobe choices didn’t reflect my true style. I preferred comfort and light colors over high heels and reds. I discovered my love of travel, curiosity about cultures, and talent for drawing out people’s stories. These insights helped me craft a richer, more fulfilling life. What might you uncover? Your personal space holds clues about your talents, interests, and desires — things you may have overlooked. With greater clarity, you can make conscious choices to live more authentically, beyond just your home. 41．What was the investigator doing in the author’s room? A．Investigating a crime. B．Appreciating the room. C．Collecting information. D．Searching for a manuscript. 42．What is The Private-Eye Game intended for? A．Building a virtual life. B．Discovering one’s true self. C．Creating a personal space. D．Developing one’s potential. 43．What can we know about the writer? A．She likes red stuff. B．She ignores her strengths. C．She is good at story writing. D．She dislikes tidying up rooms. 44．What can we learn from the story? A．People with a detailed profile enjoy a fulfilling life. B．A shift in perspective reveals one’s hidden aspects. C．Self-discovery requires reevaluating possessions. D．An original portrait displays one’s inner world. 45．How is the passage mainly organized? A．By presenting problems and offering solutions. B．By describing an experience and explaining its significance. C．By comparing different ways of self-discovery. D．By listing steps of an exercise and its practical effects. 【答案】41．C 42．B 43．C 44．B 45．B 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章讲述了作者通过扮演私家侦探，探索自己的居住空间，从而发现真实自我的经历，并解释了这一自我发现练习的重要意义。 41．细节理解题。根据第四段对这位“侦探”的行为的描述和第五段中“Room by room, she made notes. When she finished, she said. “I’ve got everything I need. A full profile on you.”(她一个房间一个房间地做笔记。当她完成后，她说：“我得到了我需要的一切。关于你的完整资料。”)”可知，这位“侦探”在房间里的行为是在系统地观察、记录物品，从而收集关于作者本人的信息。故选C项。 42．细节理解题。根据倒数第四段中“In truth, the private investigator was me. I learned of this self-discovery exercise called The Private-Eye Game. It opened my eyes to my authentic self, guiding me to create a lifestyle that truly reflected my talents and desires.(事实上，私家侦探就是我。我了解到了这个被称为“私家侦探游戏”的自我发现练习。它让我看到了真实的自己，引导我创造一种真正反映我的才能和欲望的生活方式)”可知，“私家侦探游戏”的目的是发现真实的自我。故选B项。 43．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“I discovered my love of travel, curiosity about cultures, and talent for drawing out people’s stories.(我发现了自己对旅行的热爱、对不同文化的好奇，以及善于挖掘他人故事的天赋)”可知，作者通过“私家侦探游戏”发现了自己善于挖掘他人故事的天赋，即擅长写故事。故选C项。 44．推理判断题。根据倒数第四段中“It opened my eyes to my authentic self, guiding me to create a lifestyle that truly reflected my talents and desires.(它让我看到了真实的自己，引导我创造一种真正反映我的才能和欲望的生活方式)”、倒数第二段中“Once you’ve gathered information, write a “portrait of yourself” — a detailed profile. Reflect on it: Are there surprises?(一旦你收集了信息，就写一份“自画像”——一份详细的资料。反思一下：有什么惊喜吗)”和最后一段中“Your personal space holds clues about your talents, interests, and desires — things you may have overlooked. With greater clarity, you can make conscious choices to live more authentically, beyond just your home.(你的个人空间隐藏着关于你的才能、兴趣和欲望的线索——这些可能是你忽略的东西。有了更清晰的认识，你就可以做出有意识的选择，不仅仅是在家里，而是更真实地生活)”可知，作者通过扮演私家侦探，探索自己的居住空间，从而发现真实的自己，引导自己创造一种真正反映才能和欲望的生活方式，由此可推知，视角的转变可以揭示一个人隐藏的方面。故选B项。 45．推理判断题。通读全文，结合倒数第四段中“In truth, the private investigator was me. I learned of this self-discovery exercise called The Private-Eye Game.(事实上，私家侦探就是我。我了解到了这个被称为“私家侦探游戏”的自我发现练习)”和倒数第三段中“The exercise is simple: examine your life from this detective perspective. In your home or workspace, look closely at your belongings and note what they reveal about you. Search for subtle clues that tell you about your interests and talents.(这个练习很简单：从侦探的角度审视你的生活。在你的家里或工作场所，仔细观察你的物品，注意它们透露了关于你的什么信息。寻找能告诉你你的兴趣和才能的微妙线索)”可知，文章前半部分描述了作者扮演私家侦探，探索自己的居住空间，从而发现真实自我的经历，后半部分解释了这一自我发现练习的重要意义，由此可推知，文章主要通过描述经历和解释其重要性来组织。故选B项。 C Earlier this year, the Pew Research Center released data showing that 55% of people get their news from social media. In a follow-up study, they found that these people are more likely to see misinformation. When that misinformation is about science, it contributes to the growing mistrust individuals have towards science. We, as scientists, need to do our best to correct this misinformation. However, we are mostly stuck behind our lab desks due to the pressure to publish papers. When we occasionally do approach the public, we often don’t do a great job communicating in ways nonscientists can understand. Most of us have not been trained to communicate or teach the lay audience. We use complicated words and phrases and a lot of jargon (术语), we may focus on tiny details that the general public doesn’t need to understand. Other times we forget that the people we are talking to are human, with complicated lives and emotions. Just like us. They deserve our attention and respect. This causes the public to rely on other sources for their scientific information, often the above-mentioned social media. Today we are seeing the consequences of this. Large percentages of people believe that infectious diseases are not real and that vaccines are dangerous. This distrust in science has gone from a mere inconvenience to now being an issue that endangers public health and safety. Distrust in science also endangers our funding. When the public puts less value in science there is less public support for tax dollars going to funding for research. So, what can we do to address these issues? People trust those they know and interact with. We need to interact with the public more. During these interactions, we should choose our words carefully. We need to cut out as much jargon as possible. Sometimes it may be necessary, but then we must be clear and explain the terms we use. To help people understand and remember concepts, we can use stories and images to illustrate our main points. Most people can remember a story someone told, or a striking image shared. 46．What concern does the author raise based on the Pew study? A．Declining public curiosity about science. B．Spread of false scientific information. C．Scientists’ limited time for lab work. D．Difficulty in publishing research. 47．What does the underlined word “lay” in paragraph 2 mean? A．Nontechnical. B．Outnumbered. C．Misinformed. D．Undereducated. 48．What results from the public’s disbelief in science? A．Much stricter research regulation. B．Researchers losing scientific interest. C．An increased risk for wellness threats. D．Inconvenient access to scientific findings. 49．What does the author urge scientists to focus on? A．Working with other researchers. B．Releasing more scientific work. C．Avoiding social media platforms. D．Making science more understandable. 50．Which of the following would be the best title for the text? A．Why the Public Distrusts Scientists B．The Importance of Publishing Scientific Papers C．The Negative Impact of Social Media on Science D．How Scientists Can Correct Misinformation and Build Public Trust 【答案】46．B 47．A 48．C 49．D 50．D 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要介绍社交媒体传播科学虚假信息导致公众对科学不信任的问题，分析成因，并向科学家提出改善沟通、纠正误导的建议。 46．细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Earlier this year, the Pew Research Center released data showing that 55% of people get their news from social media. In a follow-up study, they found that these people are more likely to see misinformation. When that misinformation is about science, it contributes to the growing mistrust individuals have towards science.(今年早些时候，皮尤研究中心发布的数据显示，55%的人从社交媒体获取新闻。在一项后续研究中，他们发现这些人更有可能看到虚假信息。当这些虚假信息与科学相关时，就会加剧人们对科学日益增长的不信任)”可知，作者基于皮尤研究提出的担忧是科学虚假信息的传播。故选B项。 47．词句猜测题。根据第二段中的“Most of us have not been trained to communicate or teach the lay audience. We use complicated words and phrases and a lot of jargon (术语), we may focus on tiny details that the general public doesn’t need to understand.(我们大多数人都没有接受过与lay受众沟通或传授知识的训练。我们使用复杂的词汇和短语，以及大量的术语，我们可能会专注于普通大众不需要理解的微小细节)”可知，后文general public（普通大众）是对lay audience的解释，由此猜测lay意为“非专业的”，与Nontechnical意思相近。故选A项。 48．细节理解题。根据第三段中的“This distrust in science has gone from a mere inconvenience to now being an issue that endangers public health and safety.(这种对科学的不信任已经从一种单纯的不便，演变成如今危及公众健康和安全的问题)”可知，公众对科学的不信任会导致健康安全风险增加。故选C项。 49．推理判断题。根据第四段中的“We need to interact with the public more. During these interactions, we should choose our words carefully. We need to cut out as much jargon as possible. Sometimes it may be necessary, but then we must be clear and explain the terms we use. To help people understand and remember concepts, we can use stories and images to illustrate our main points.(我们需要更多地与公众互动。在这些互动中，我们应该谨慎选择措辞。我们需要尽可能减少术语的使用。有时术语可能是必要的，但之后我们必须清晰地解释我们使用的术语。为了帮助人们理解和记住概念，我们可以用故事和图像来阐明我们的要点)”可推断，作者敦促科学家专注于让科学更易懂。故选D项。 50．主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章开篇提出社交媒体传播科学虚假信息、公众对科学不信任的问题，接着分析科学家与公众沟通不畅的成因及不信任科学的危害，最后给出科学家纠正虚假信息、建立公众信任的具体措施。D选项“How Scientists Can Correct Misinformation and Build Public Trust(科学家如何纠正虚假信息并建立公众信任)”能概括全文主旨，适合作为标题。故选D项。 D Can AI music truly feel human? A recent experiment with the AI music platform Suno and a new preprint study offer some clues. The study, which used thousands of Suno-generated songs from a Reddit board, asked participants to tell AI music apart from human compositions. Results showed people were only 53% accurate — almost like guessing. When songs were stylistically similar, accuracy rose to 66%, but Suno’s models keep getting more advanced. I tried Suno myself, instructing it to make a “1960s-style folk-rock song with sincere male vocals.” The AI created it in seconds. Though I couldn’t easily tell it from human-made music, it didn’t touch me emotionally. This connects to my personal experience with Buffalo Springfield’s “For What It’s Worth”, a song tied to memories of my stepfather teaching me to play it — memories that make the song meaningful. Technology has long changed how we interact with music. From Napster’s file sharing to Spotify’s subscriptions, music has become easily accessible, as David Bowie predicted years ago. Now AI like Suno adds more music to the mix, with Spotify recently removing 75 million low-quality works, though we don’t know how many were AI-made. History shows new music technologies often spark debate. Sampling was once called lazy or theft but is now recognized as art. AI music faces similar copyright issues, but unlike DJs who sample songs they love, AI’s connection to music feels less personal. While AI music keeps improving, most of it may be forgotten, just like most human music. We want more than skill in music — we want stories and connections. Some exceptional AI songs might shine in movies or online memes, but genuine emotional resonance (情感共鸣) still comes from human stories. We should stay cautious, though. Past technologies like player pianos reduced family music-making. Bowie thought live performances would remain the last way to build real connections with audiences. For now, AI music can mimic human sound, but the human touch — memories, stories, and passion — is what makes music truly meaningful. 51．What is the main purpose of the study mentioned? A．To test whether AI can compose better music than humans. B．To examine people’s ability to distinguish AI music from human music. C．To prove that AI music is more emotionally touching than human music. D．To explore the copyright issues related to AI-generated songs. 52．Why did the accuracy rate rise to 66% in the study? A．Suno’s models became more advanced. B．Participants got professional training. C．The songs involved had similar styles. D．More human compositions were provided. 53．What does the example of “For What It’s Worth” convey? A．The author’s stepfather had better musical taste than AI. B．Personal memories can give music a depth that AI lacks. C．Human vocals are emotionally richer than AI-generated ones. D．Music taught by family members is more meaningful. 54．What function does Paragraph 4 serve in the passage? A．To raise a critical question regarding AI music quality. B．To provide factual background on music streaming platforms. C．To argue against the removal of AI-generated songs by Spotify. D．To illustrate the technological evolution of music access. 55．What is the author’s overall attitude toward AI music? A．Strongly opposed and pessimistic. B．Cautious yet open to its potential. C．Fully supportive and enthusiastic. D．Indifferent and uninterested. 【答案】51．B 52．C 53．B 54．D 55．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要围绕AI音乐是否具有人文温度展开，结合实验、个人经历及历史案例，探讨人们对AI音乐的辨别能力、情感共鸣等问题，表达了谨慎且开放的态度。 51．细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The study, which used thousands of Suno-generated songs from a Reddit board, asked participants to tell AI music apart from human compositions.(这项研究使用了Reddit论坛上数千首由Suno生成的歌曲，要求参与者区分AI音乐和人类创作的音乐)”可知，该研究的主要目的是检验人们区分AI音乐和人类音乐的能力。故选B项。 52．细节理解题。根据第二段中的“When songs were stylistically similar, accuracy rose to 66%, but Suno’s models keep getting more advanced.(当歌曲风格相似时，准确率上升到66%，但Suno的模型还在不断升级)”可知，准确率上升到66%的原因是涉及的歌曲具有相似的风格。故选C项。 53．推理判断题。根据第三段中的“This connects to my personal experience with Buffalo Springfield’s ‘For What It’s Worth’, a song tied to memories of my stepfather teaching me to play it — memories that make the song meaningful.(这让我想起了自己听布法罗·斯普林菲尔德乐队《For What It’s Worth》的经历，这首歌与我继父教我弹奏它的回忆紧密相连——正是这些回忆让这首歌变得有意义)”以及前文提到AI音乐无法触动自己情感，可推断该例子旨在说明个人回忆能赋予音乐AI所缺乏的深度。故选B项。 54．推理判断题。根据第四段“Technology has long changed how we interact with music. From Napster’s file sharing to Spotify’s subscriptions, music has become easily accessible, as David Bowie predicted years ago. Now AI like Suno adds more music to the mix with Spotify recently removing 75 million low-quality works, though we don’t know how many were AI-made.(长期以来，技术一直在改变我们与音乐互动的方式。从Napster的文件共享到Spotify的订阅服务，正如大卫·鲍伊多年前预测的那样，音乐变得越来越容易获取。现在，像Suno这样的AI又为其中增添了更多音乐，尽管目前尚不清楚其中有多少是人工智能创作的，Spotify近期还下架了 7500 万首低质量音乐作品)”可知，该段通过列举不同时期的音乐技术，阐述了音乐获取方式的技术演变。故选D项。 55．推理判断题。根据第六段中的“Some exceptional AI songs might shine in movies or online memes, but genuine emotional resonance still comes from human stories.(一些优秀的AI歌曲可能会在电影或网络梗中脱颖而出，但真正的情感共鸣仍然来自人类的故事)”以及第七段中的“We should stay cautious, though.(不过，我们应该保持谨慎)”可知，作者认为AI音乐有一定潜力，但仍需保持谨慎，整体态度是谨慎且对其潜力持开放态度。故选B项。 第二部分:写作(共两节，满分35分) 第一节：阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，并根据短文内容完成下列各题。 When my father was celebrating a milestone (里程碑) birthday, I pulled together a surprised gift that he would never forget. On his 60th birthday, I had a fun idea: What if I could get the memories people had of him, put each one into an envelope (信封) — 60 in total — and have him open them, one by one, on his birthday? So I wrote an e-mail to family and friends, explaining my idea. I sent the e-mail and waited. And then the replies started coming in and I was very, very astonished. There were so many memories, and they were all so lovely. They came from the 50s, 60s, 70s, from every decade (十年) between now and the day my dad was born. They came from my mother, my siblings, my grandma, my dad’s friends from high school, his sister, my dad’s first boss, a colleague at his first job, from people who hadn’t seen my dad in 40 years, from people I myself hadn’t even informed. They typed them and handwrote them. They mailed them and e-mailed them. The night before Dad’s birthday, my sister and I stayed up late, putting the mail into envelopes. The next morning, after breakfast and presents and cake, we gave the pile of envelopes to him. “Just one more thing for you,” we said. It took him a long time to open them and read. Each one was a brief ticket to another time, a leap (跳跃) backward over years and decades. There was a lot of laughter and a few tears in his face. I was kind of sad when the project of the memories about my father was over because it was great fun to collect these memories. 56．When did the author give her father a surprised gift? (no more than 5 words) 57．What does the underlined word “astonished” in paragraph 3 probably mean? (no more than 1 words) 58．Why did the author and her sister stay up late the night before their father’s birthday? (no more than 10 words) 59．How did the author’s father most probably feel when he read the mail? (no more than 2 words) 60．If it were you, what gift would you buy for your father? Why? (no more than 20 words) 【答案】56．On his 60th birthday. 57．Surprised. 58．To put the mail into envelopes. 59．Moved. 60．I would send him a photo album. It could hold sweet memories with our family. 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述作者为父亲60岁生日收集回忆作为惊喜礼物的经历。 56．考查细节理解。根据第一段和第二段开头“When my father was celebrating a milestone (里程碑) birthday, I pulled together a surprised gift that he would never forget. On his 60th birthday, I had a fun idea:(当我父亲庆祝一个里程碑式的生日时，我准备了一份他永远不会忘记的惊喜礼物。在他60岁生日那天，我有了一个有趣的想法)”可知，作者在父亲60岁生日时送了惊喜礼物。故填On his 60th birthday. 57．考查词句猜测。根据第三段中的“There were so many memories, and they were all so lovely. They came from the 50s, 60s, 70s, from every decade (十年) between now and the day my dad was born. They came from my mother, my siblings, my grandma, my dad’s friends from high school, his sister, my dad’s first boss, a colleague at his first job, from people who hadn’t seen my dad in 40 years, from people I myself hadn’t even informed. (有太多的回忆，而且都很美好。它们来自 50 年代、60 年代、70 年代，从现在起的每一个十年，一直到我父亲出生的那一年。它们来自我的母亲、兄弟姐妹、祖母、父亲的高中朋友、他的妹妹、父亲的第一任老板、他第一份工作的同事、40年没见过父亲的人、甚至我自己都没通知过的人)”可知，回复的邮件数量多且来源广，作者应是惊讶的。astonished意为“惊讶的”，与surprise意思相近。故填Surprised. 58．考查细节理解。根据第四段中的“The night before Dad’s birthday, my sister and I stayed up late, putting the mail into envelopes.(爸爸生日的前一天晚上，我和姐姐熬夜把邮件装进信封)”可知，姐妹俩熬夜是为了把邮件装进信封。故填To put the mail into envelopes. 59．考查推理判断。根据第六段中的“There was a lot of laughter and a few tears in his face.(有很多笑声，他脸上也有几滴眼泪)”可知，父亲是感动的。故填Moved. 60．开放性试题。符合逻辑和字数即可。例如I would send him a photo album. It could hold sweet memories with our family. 第二节：书面表达（满分25分） 61．你喜欢的某英文杂志的Voice栏目正在征稿。请你就所给题目“Is appearance important?”写一篇短文发表自己的看法。 注意：1.词数应为80左右； 2.尽量用本单元知识点； 3.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Is appearance important?_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文 Is appearance important? Many people place a high value on appearance, because a physically attractive person can impress people. For example, a good-looking actor or actress can get noticed quickly. Moreover, a good appearance can boost our self-confidence. We feel good if we look good. However, there is a danger of attaching too much importance to appearance, as it does not always indicate what kind of character one has, or what skills one may possess. So in my opinion, we should take care of our physical appearance, but “Never judge a book by its cover.” 【导语】本篇书面表达属于应用文。要求考生给某杂志的Voice栏目写一篇短文，发表自己对“Is appearance important?”的看法。 【详解】1.词汇积累 看重：place a high value on→lay a high value on 注意：notice→spot 提升：boost→promote 表明：indicate→suggest 2.句式拓展 句型转换 原句：Many people place a high value on appearance, because a physically attractive person can impress people. 拓展句：The reason why many people place a high value on appearance is that a physically attractive person can impress people. 【点睛】【高分句型1】However, there is a danger of attaching too much importance to appearance, as it does not always indicate what kind of character one has, or what skills one may possess.（运用了as引导的原因状语从句） 【高分句型2】Many people place a high value on appearance, because a physically attractive person can impress people.（运用了because引导的原因状语从句） 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司22 / 23 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $………………○………………外………………○………………装………………○………………订………………○………………线………………○……………… ………………○………………内………………○………………装………………○………………订………………○………………线………………○……………… 此卷只装订不密封 ………………○………………内………………○………………装………………○………………订………………○………………线………………○……………… ………………○………………外………………○………………装………………○………………订………………○………………线………………○……………… … 学校：______________姓名：_____________班级：_______________考号：______________________ 2025-2026学年高二英语选择性必修第三册单元自测（天津专用） Unit 1·培优卷 学校:___________班级：___________姓名：___________分数：___________ （时间：100分钟，满分：130分） 注意事项： 1．本试卷分第Ⅰ卷（选择题）和第Ⅱ卷（非选择题）两部分。答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2．回答第Ⅰ卷时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。写在本试卷上无效。 3．回答第Ⅱ卷时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 4．考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分：英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分） 第一节：单项填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 从A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 1．—Would you help me lift this heavy box? — .

Each has a personality shaped by the goods and services produced and traded for centuries. But each town has more to do than shop. Hereford, Herefordshire Hereford has remained a lively market town since 1189. Skirting the town square, you’ll find lovely shops, eateries, and the Black and White House Museum. The Hereford Cathedral is the most impressive building in town. It’s also home to an ancient library. One of the four original copies of the Magna Carta is displayed there. Ludlow, Shropshire Ludlow is known as the Foodie Center of England. Butcher shops, greengrocers, bakeries, and cheese shops line the town square. Bordering the square, the Ludlow Castle is a “must explore” medieval stronghold. The three-day Ludlow Food Festival is held each September. Shrewsbury, Shropshire Getting to Shrewsbury Town Center from London is challenging but worth the anxiety. The River Severn has a significant turn through town, almost making an island of Shrewsbury Town Center. The shape creates a perfect market where goods could be shipped and received using the river as a highway. Flowers are everywhere—hanging baskets window boxes and planters—just what you imagine in an attractive English market town. Mevagissey, Cornwall Even if you haven’t been to the small fishing village Mevagissey, you’ve probably seen it in a movie or British TV show. The working harbor took shape in 1774. Fishermen go out to sea daily and sell their fish in harbor-side markets. Don’t leave the harbor without a traditional Cornish pie. It’s delicious. 36．Where can you find an original copy of the Magna Carta? A．In the Ludlow Castle. B．In the Foodie Center of England. C．In the Hereford Cathedral.

B Ten years ago, a private investigator appeared at my door. “I’m here to investigate the person who lives here,” she announced, then entered my home and slowly explored. Her eyes swept from the decorations on the wall to the red Turkish mat on the floor. She stopped at a glass and yellow cake trolley — a gift from my mother. On top sat a manuscript: the handwritten memoirs of a ninety-nine-year-old World War II veteran. His daughter had asked for my help turning his stories into a literary family legacy. The investigator moved to the living room. A curtain, trimmed with crystal beads, hung from a French window. The sunlight made the crystals swing, casting rainbows on the ceiling. “I made it myself,” I said. “I love the cherry-red fabric.” She nodded and approached the bookshelf. She ran her finger along the spines, mouthing titles of autobiography, then moved to a pink wardrobe filled with family photos, a globe, and travel souvenirs. Room by room, she made notes. When she finished, she said. “I’ve got everything I need. A full profile on you.” As I read her analysis, I learned more about my preferences, talents, and style — I hadn’t fully recognized before. This profile became the first step toward designing a life aligned with my unique joys and skills. In truth, the private investigator was me. I learned of this self-discovery exercise called The Private-Eye Game. It opened my eyes to my authentic self, guiding me to create a lifestyle that truly reflected my talents and desires. The exercise is simple: examine your life from this detective perspective. In your home or workspace, look closely at your belongings and note what they reveal about you. Search for subtle clues that tell you about your interests and talents. Once you’ve gathered information, write a “portrait of yourself” — a detailed profile. Reflect on it: Are there surprises? When I did this, I realized my wardrobe choices didn’t reflect my true style. I preferred comfort and light colors over high heels and reds. I discovered my love of travel, curiosity about cultures, and talent for drawing out people’s stories. These insights helped me craft a richer, more fulfilling life. What might you uncover? Your personal space holds clues about your talents, interests, and desires — things you may have overlooked. With greater clarity, you can make conscious choices to live more authentically, beyond just your home. 41．What was the investigator doing in the author’s room? A．Investigating a crime. B．Appreciating the room. C．Collecting information. D．Searching for a manuscript. 42．What is The Private-Eye Game intended for? A．Building a virtual life. B．Discovering one’s true self. C．Creating a personal space. D．Developing one’s potential. 43．What can we know about the writer? A．She likes red stuff. B．She ignores her strengths. C．She is good at story writing. D．She dislikes tidying up rooms. 44．What can we learn from the story? A．People with a detailed profile enjoy a fulfilling life. B．A shift in perspective reveals one’s hidden aspects. C．Self-discovery requires reevaluating possessions. D．An original portrait displays one’s inner world. 45．How is the passage mainly organized? A．By presenting problems and offering solutions. B．By describing an experience and explaining its significance. C．By comparing different ways of self-discovery. D．By listing steps of an exercise and its practical effects. C Earlier this year, the Pew Research Center released data showing that 55% of people get their news from social media. In a follow-up study, they found that these people are more likely to see misinformation. When that misinformation is about science, it contributes to the growing mistrust individuals have towards science. We, as scientists, need to do our best to correct this misinformation. However, we are mostly stuck behind our lab desks due to the pressure to publish papers. When we occasionally do approach the public, we often don’t do a great job communicating in ways nonscientists can understand. Most of us have not been trained to communicate or teach the lay audience. We use complicated words and phrases and a lot of jargon (术语), we may focus on tiny details that the general public doesn’t need to understand. Other times we forget that the people we are talking to are human, with complicated lives and emotions. Just like us. They deserve our attention and respect. This causes the public to rely on other sources for their scientific information, often the above-mentioned social media. Today we are seeing the consequences of this. Large percentages of people believe that infectious diseases are not real and that vaccines are dangerous. This distrust in science has gone from a mere inconvenience to now being an issue that endangers public health and safety. Distrust in science also endangers our funding. When the public puts less value in science there is less public support for tax dollars going to funding for research. So, what can we do to address these issues? People trust those they know and interact with. We need to interact with the public more. During these interactions, we should choose our words carefully. We need to cut out as much jargon as possible. Sometimes it may be necessary, but then we must be clear and explain the terms we use. To help people understand and remember concepts, we can use stories and images to illustrate our main points. Most people can remember a story someone told, or a striking image shared. 46．What concern does the author raise based on the Pew study? A．Declining public curiosity about science. B．Spread of false scientific information. C．Scientists’ limited time for lab work. D．Difficulty in publishing research. 47．What does the underlined word “lay” in paragraph 2 mean? A．Nontechnical. B．Outnumbered. C．Misinformed. D．Undereducated. 48．What results from the public’s disbelief in science? A．Much stricter research regulation. B．Researchers losing scientific interest. C．An increased risk for wellness threats. D．Inconvenient access to scientific findings. 49．What does the author urge scientists to focus on? A．Working with other researchers. B．Releasing more scientific work. C．Avoiding social media platforms. D．Making science more understandable. 50．Which of the following would be the best title for the text? A．Why the Public Distrusts Scientists B．The Importance of Publishing Scientific Papers C．The Negative Impact of Social Media on Science D．How Scientists Can Correct Misinformation and Build Public Trust D Can AI music truly feel human? A recent experiment with the AI music platform Suno and a new preprint study offer some clues. The study, which used thousands of Suno-generated songs from a Reddit board, asked participants to tell AI music apart from human compositions. Results showed people were only 53% accurate — almost like guessing. When songs were stylistically similar, accuracy rose to 66%, but Suno’s models keep getting more advanced. I tried Suno myself, instructing it to make a “1960s-style folk-rock song with sincere male vocals.” The AI created it in seconds. Though I couldn’t easily tell it from human-made music, it didn’t touch me emotionally. This connects to my personal experience with Buffalo Springfield’s “For What It’s Worth”, a song tied to memories of my stepfather teaching me to play it — memories that make the song meaningful. Technology has long changed how we interact with music. From Napster’s file sharing to Spotify’s subscriptions, music has become easily accessible, as David Bowie predicted years ago. Now AI like Suno adds more music to the mix, with Spotify recently removing 75 million low-quality works, though we don’t know how many were AI-made. History shows new music technologies often spark debate. Sampling was once called lazy or theft but is now recognized as art. AI music faces similar copyright issues, but unlike DJs who sample songs they love, AI’s connection to music feels less personal. While AI music keeps improving, most of it may be forgotten, just like most human music. We want more than skill in music — we want stories and connections. Some exceptional AI songs might shine in movies or online memes, but genuine emotional resonance (情感共鸣) still comes from human stories. We should stay cautious, though. Past technologies like player pianos reduced family music-making. Bowie thought live performances would remain the last way to build real connections with audiences. For now, AI music can mimic human sound, but the human touch — memories, stories, and passion — is what makes music truly meaningful. 51．What is the main purpose of the study mentioned? A．To test whether AI can compose better music than humans. B．To examine people’s ability to distinguish AI music from human music. C．To prove that AI music is more emotionally touching than human music. D．To explore the copyright issues related to AI-generated songs. 52．Why did the accuracy rate rise to 66% in the study? A．Suno’s models became more advanced. B．Participants got professional training. C．The songs involved had similar styles. D．More human compositions were provided. 53．What does the example of “For What It’s Worth” convey? A．The author’s stepfather had better musical taste than AI. B．Personal memories can give music a depth that AI lacks. C．Human vocals are emotionally richer than AI-generated ones. D．Music taught by family members is more meaningful. 54．What function does Paragraph 4 serve in the passage? A．To raise a critical question regarding AI music quality. B．To provide factual background on music streaming platforms. C．To argue against the removal of AI-generated songs by Spotify. D．To illustrate the technological evolution of music access. 55．What is the author’s overall attitude toward AI music? A．Strongly opposed and pessimistic. B．Cautious yet open to its potential. C．Fully supportive and enthusiastic. D．Indifferent and uninterested. 第二部分:写作(共两节，满分35分) 第一节：阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，并根据短文内容完成下列各题。 When my father was celebrating a milestone (里程碑) birthday, I pulled together a surprised gift that he would never forget. On his 60th birthday, I had a fun idea: What if I could get the memories people had of him, put each one into an envelope (信封) — 60 in total — and have him open them, one by one, on his birthday? So I wrote an e-mail to family and friends, explaining my idea. I sent the e-mail and waited. And then the replies started coming in and I was very, very astonished. There were so many memories, and they were all so lovely. They came from the 50s, 60s, 70s, from every decade (十年) between now and the day my dad was born. They came from my mother, my siblings, my grandma, my dad’s friends from high school, his sister, my dad’s first boss, a colleague at his first job, from people who hadn’t seen my dad in 40 years, from people I myself hadn’t even informed. They typed them and handwrote them. They mailed them and e-mailed them. The night before Dad’s birthday, my sister and I stayed up late, putting the mail into envelopes. The next morning, after breakfast and presents and cake, we gave the pile of envelopes to him. “Just one more thing for you,” we said. It took him a long time to open them and read. Each one was a brief ticket to another time, a leap (跳跃) backward over years and decades. There was a lot of laughter and a few tears in his face. I was kind of sad when the project of the memories about my father was over because it was great fun to collect these memories. 56．When did the author give her father a surprised gift? (no more than 5 words) 57．What does the underlined word “astonished” in paragraph 3 probably mean?

Each has a personality shaped by the goods and services produced and traded for centuries. But each town has more to do than shop. Hereford, Herefordshire Hereford has remained a lively market town since 1189. Skirting the town square, you’ll find lovely shops, eateries, and the Black and White House Museum. The Hereford Cathedral is the most impressive building in town. It’s also home to an ancient library. One of the four original copies of the Magna Carta is displayed there. Ludlow, Shropshire Ludlow is known as the Foodie Center of England. Butcher shops, greengrocers, bakeries, and cheese shops line the town square. Bordering the square, the Ludlow Castle is a “must explore” medieval stronghold. The three-day Ludlow Food Festival is held each September. Shrewsbury, Shropshire Getting to Shrewsbury Town Center from London is challenging but worth the anxiety. The River Severn has a significant turn through town, almost making an island of Shrewsbury Town Center. The shape creates a perfect market where goods could be shipped and received using the river as a highway. Flowers are everywhere—hanging baskets window boxes and planters—just what you imagine in an attractive English market town. Mevagissey, Cornwall Even if you haven’t been to the small fishing village Mevagissey, you’ve probably seen it in a movie or British TV show. The working harbor took shape in 1774. Fishermen go out to sea daily and sell their fish in harbor-side markets. Don’t leave the harbor without a traditional Cornish pie. It’s delicious. 36．Where can you find an original copy of the Magna Carta? A．In the Ludlow Castle. B．In the Foodie Center of England. C．In the Hereford Cathedral.

B Ten years ago, a private investigator appeared at my door. “I’m here to investigate the person who lives here,” she announced, then entered my home and slowly explored. Her eyes swept from the decorations on the wall to the red Turkish mat on the floor. She stopped at a glass and yellow cake trolley — a gift from my mother. On top sat a manuscript: the handwritten memoirs of a ninety-nine-year-old World War II veteran. His daughter had asked for my help turning his stories into a literary family legacy. The investigator moved to the living room. A curtain, trimmed with crystal beads, hung from a French window. The sunlight made the crystals swing, casting rainbows on the ceiling. “I made it myself,” I said. “I love the cherry-red fabric.” She nodded and approached the bookshelf. She ran her finger along the spines, mouthing titles of autobiography, then moved to a pink wardrobe filled with family photos, a globe, and travel souvenirs. Room by room, she made notes. When she finished, she said. “I’ve got everything I need. A full profile on you.” As I read her analysis, I learned more about my preferences, talents, and style — I hadn’t fully recognized before. This profile became the first step toward designing a life aligned with my unique joys and skills. In truth, the private investigator was me.
