According to district data, 70%of Louisa teachers now use AI tools at least weekly-far above the national average reported in a recent EdWeek Research Center survey. (A report carried out nationwide released by the Center for Democracy and Technology) Tools and Guidance in Action The district has actively supported this growth. After teacher feedback called for clearer direction, Louisa developed practical AI guidelines and adopted SchoolAI, a platform designed for lesson planning and student activities. Trainings and a shared AI resource center have helped teachers integrate technology into classrooms. Challenges Remain Still, challenges remain. Some Louisa teachers do not use AI at all. Surveys show the main reasons include lack of training time, concerns about reliability, and limited access to tools. As one Trevilians Elementary teacher noted, practicing alone is very different from using AI with students. Student reactions are also mixed. Some worry AI could “take over the world,” while others appreciate its help as a learning assistant. Teachers like Marcia Flora are addressing fears by explaining that “AI is just one tool” and encouraging critical thinking. Looking Ahead Louisa continues to adjust its approach. One example is the AI “traffic light” that teachers could share with students to help make it clear on which parts of a particular assignment students could turn to AI for help. Green means students may use AI with citation; yellow means limited use; and red means no AI allowed. These tools help integrate AI into daily learning while encouraging proper use. As the technology develops, Louisa’s experience offers a real-time model of how schools can prepare students for a tech-driven future. 21. What percentage of the teachers nationwide are using AI in the classroom? A. 24%. B. 61%. C. 63%. D. 70%. 22. Why do some Louisa teachers avoid using AI? A. They believe it will take over the world. B. They feel unprepared to integrate AI effectively. C. They feel uncomfortable to adopt AI fully. D. They find the students depend too much on AI. 23. What does the AI “traffic light” system do? A. It limits teachers’ use of AI in lessons. B. It controls the Internet speed in classrooms. C. It is used to teach students about road safety. D. It guides students on proper AI use. 【答案】21. B 22. B 23. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了路易莎县学校在教育中应用AI的现状、挑战与未来举措。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据图片中的信息“I use them a lot(我经常使用它们)”可知，经常使用AI的老师占3%，“I use them some(我有时用它们)”可知，有时使用AI的老师是21%，“I use them a little(我用它们用得不多)”可知，用的不多的老师占37%，所以全国范围内，在课堂上使用人工智能的老师占比为61%。故选B。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据Challenges Remain标题下的“Some Louisa teachers do not use AI at all. Surveys show the main reasons include lack of training time，concerns about reliability，and limited access to tools. As one Trevilians Elementary teacher noted，practicing alone is very different from using AI with students.(一些路易莎的老师根本不使用人工智能。调查显示，主要原因包括缺乏培训时间、对可靠性的担忧以及工具获取有限。正如一位特雷维利安斯小学老师指出的那样，独自练习与和学生一起使用人工智能是非常不同的)”可知，一些路易莎的老师避免使用人工智能是因为他们觉得自己没有准备好有效地将人工智能融入教学中，即他们觉得自己没有准备好有效地整合人工智能。故选B。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据Looking Ahead标题下的“One example is the AI “traffic light” that teachers could share with students to help make it clear on which parts of a particular assignment students could turn to AI for help.(一个例子是人工智能“交通灯”，教师可以与学生分享，以帮助明确在特定作业的哪些部分学生可以求助于人工智能)”以及“Green means students may use AI with citation；yellow means limited use；and red means no AI allowed. These tools help integrate AI into daily learning while encouraging proper use.(绿色表示学生可以在引用的情况下使用人工智能；黄色表示有限使用；红色表示不允许使用人工智能。这些工具有助于将人工智能融入日常学习，同时鼓励正确使用)”可知，人工智能“交通灯”系统指导学生正确使用人工智能。故选D。 B The basketball felt awkward in my hands as I watched my teenage opponent effortlessly dribble (运球) past me for the twentieth time. He moved with natural grace, making my attempts seem comical (可笑的). How did I, someone who hadn’t played sports since my middle school, end up being schooled by someone half my age? It all began when I decided to find a new hobby. My original plan was to join a soccer team, but my wife warned, “You may twist your ankle. I’d rather not spend our weekends in hospital.” So I settled on basketball — a sport I’d enjoyed watching but never actually played. My biggest fear starting out wasn’t physical injury, but social embarrassment. For the first few weeks, I stuck to basic athletic wear, hoping to look like someone who did belong in the sport. I also worried about being picked last or laughed at, just like in middle school PE classes. However, everyone at the community court proved incredibly supportive — even when I accidentally passed the ball to the wrong team. This experience drove home a point: my deepest anxiety wasn’t about missing shots, but about feeling unskilled around more experienced players. After months, my performance was still far from perfect. I’d occasionally travel with the ball, and three minutes of full-court running could still leave me breathless. However, any frustration (挫败) was overshadowed when my seven-year-old son joined the youth basketball program. While he’s still learning the rules, he enjoys practicing with his peers. What truly matters to him, and consequently to me, is the joy of us learning together in the same place. Basketball hasn’t transformed me into a skilled player, but there is something valuable: the importance of trying things beyond your experience and natural abilities. You might surprise yourself with what you can learn. Of course, the first lesson should be that if you have your ankle injured, you shouldn’t keep playing. But that whole “challenging yourself” lesson is definitely a close second. 24. What caused the author to choose basketball instead of soccer? A. His urge to find a new hobby. B. His lifelong passion for basketball. C. His wife’s concern about his safety. D. His teenage opponent’s recommendation. 25. What was the true source of the author’s anxiety? A. The feeling of not being good enough. B. The fear of not staying safe and sound. C. The pressure from his son’s high expectations. D. The experience of missing shots in a PE class 26. What can be inferred from paragraph 4? A. The author’s basketball skills improved a lot. B. The author’s lack of talent brought him deep regret. C. The author’s goal was to coach his son to be an outstanding player D. The author’s happiness came from learning basketball with his son. 27. What is the most valuable lesson for the author? A. The importance of challenging oneself. B. The value of building friendships. C. The benefit of avoiding injuries. D. The significance of enhancing skills. 【答案】24. C 25. A 26. D 27. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述作者为寻找新爱好开始接触篮球，克服内心的社交焦虑，虽球技未臻完美，却在与儿子共同学习中收获快乐，也领悟到挑战自我的重要性。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“My original plan was to join a soccer team, but my wife warned, “You may twist your ankle. I’d rather not spend our weekends in hospital.” So I settled on basketball — a sport I’d enjoyed watching but never actually played. (我最初的计划是加入一支足球队，但妻子警告我说：“你可能会扭到脚踝。我可不想把周末都花在医院里。”于是我选定了篮球——一项我喜欢看但从未实际打过的运动。)”可知，作者选择篮球而非足球是因为妻子担心他的安全。故选C项。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“This experience drove home a point: my deepest anxiety wasn’t about missing shots, but about feeling unskilled around more experienced players.(这段经历让我深刻地认识到一点：我最深的焦虑并非投不进球，而是在更有经验的球员身边觉得自己技艺生疏。)”可知，作者焦虑的真正根源是觉得自己的球技不够好。故选A项。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“However, any frustration (挫败) was overshadowed when my seven-year-old son joined the youth basketball program. While he’s still learning the rules, he enjoys practicing with his peers. What truly matters to him, and consequently to me, is the joy of us learning together in the same place.(然而，当我七岁的儿子加入青少年篮球项目后，所有的挫败感都变得无关紧要了。虽然他还在学习规则，但他喜欢和同龄人一起练习。对他来说真正重要的，也因此对我来说重要的，是我们在同一个地方一起学习的快乐。)”可知，作者的快乐来自和儿子一起学习篮球。故选D项。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“Basketball hasn’t transformed me into a skilled player, but there is something valuable: the importance of trying things beyond your experience and natural abilities.(篮球并没有把我变成一名技艺高超的球员，但我收获了珍贵的东西：去尝试那些超出自身经验和天赋能力的事情，这一点至关重要。)”以及“But that whole “challenging yourself” lesson is definitely a close second.(但“挑战自我”这一课无疑是紧随其后的重要收获。)”可知，作者学到的最宝贵的道理是挑战自我的重要性。故选A项。 C Few things delight children, or annoy their parents, as much as screen time. Parents urge their children to put down their digital devices and pick up a book or a football. Some countries are banning social media for under-16s. The worry may be focused on the wrong age group. For all the fears around teens and screens, the most square-eyed generation is the elderly. Older people have long been champion TV-viewers. Now, with smartphones and tablets, their screen time has grown even longer. In fact, screens now take up more than half of their waking hours. The digitization of old age is a good thing. The elderly have perhaps more to gain from smart devices than any other age group. Facebook brings daily updates from old friends and faraway grandchildren. Online shopping removes the need to walk around shops. A connected retirement is more satisfying and fun than an offline one. While older people face fewer online risks than teenagers for they have stable real-life relationships and formed worldviews, new dangers emerge as more seniors go online. Unlike those of teenagers, their devices are often linked to credit cards. Door-to-door conmen (骗子), who have long spied on the elderly, can now go iPad-to-iPad. Governments rightly try to protect children from online conmen. They must recognize that there is another, fast-growing vulnerable group to look after. A second cost is misinformation. The elderly are twice as likely as under-25s to use news apps or websites. Older people also appear to be more susceptible (易受影响的) than others to online tricks. As older generations spend more time online, they are entering a Wild West of information. And the elderly are frequently reported to be misled. Policymakers have often banned youth crazes, from rock’n’roll to violent video games. Now, with seniors using screens more, we must also calmly discuss their digital needs and support. 28. Who does “square-eyed generation” in paragraph 1 probably refer to? A. People criticizing social media. B. People enjoying reading books. C. People spending too much time on screens. D. Parents worrying about their children. 29. What do paragraphs 4 and 5 mainly talk about? A. The differences in online risks between the elderly and teenagers. B. The bad things the elderly are facing online. C. The generation gap in using news apps and websites. D. The measures governments should take to protect the elderly online. 30. What is the author’s main purpose of writing this article? A. To draw urgent attention to teenagers’ screen time. B. To blame the elderly for their long screen time C. To suggest banning the elderly from using smart devices. D. To call for more protection for the elderly in the digital world. 31. How does the author mainly develop the idea in the text? A. By quoting experts. B. By giving examples. C. By providing statistics. D. By making comparisons. 【答案】28. C 29. B 30. D 31. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述了老年人在数字世界中面临的问题及保护需求。 【28题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段中“For all the fears around teens and screens, the most square-eyed generation is the elderly.(尽管人们都担心青少年和屏幕，但square-eyed generation是老年人)”以及第二段中“Now, with smartphones and tablets, their screen time has grown even longer.(现在，有了智能手机和平板电脑，他们的屏幕时间变得更长了)”可知，相比青少年，现在盯屏幕最长时间的是老年人，所以“square-eyed generation”指的是长时间盯着屏幕的人，即花费太多时间在屏幕上的老年人群体。故选C。 【29题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段中“While older people face fewer online risks than teenagers for they have stable real-life relationships and formed worldviews, new dangers emerge as more seniors go online. Unlike those of teenagers, their devices are often linked to credit cards. Door-to-door conmen (骗子), who have long spied on the elderly, can now go iPad-to-iPad.(虽然老年人由于拥有稳定的现实生活关系和成熟的世界观，相较于青少年面临更少的网络风险，但随着越来越多的老年人上网，新的危险也随之出现。与青少年不同，老年人的设备通常与信用卡相关联。长期以来，上门骗子一直窥探着老年人的生活，现在他们可以通过iPad与iPad进行交流)”以及第五段中“A second cost is misinformation. The elderly are twice as likely as under-25s to use news apps or websites. Older people also appear to be more susceptible (易受影响的) than others to online tricks.(第二个代价是错误信息。老年人使用新闻应用程序或网站的可能性是25岁以下人群的两倍。老年人似乎也比其他人更容易受到网络欺骗)”可知，这两段主要讨论了老年人在网上面临的不好事情，包括安全风险和错误信息等。故选B。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Now, with seniors using screens more, we must also calmly discuss their digital needs and support.(现在，随着老年人更多地使用屏幕，我们也必须冷静地讨论他们的数字需求并提供支持)”以及前文提到的老年人在网上面临的问题可知，作者写这篇文章的主要目的是呼吁在数字世界中为老年人提供更多保护。故选D。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“The worry may be focused on the wrong age group. For all the fears around teens and screens, the most square-eyed generation is the elderly.(担忧可能集中在了错误的年龄群体。尽管人们对青少年和电子产品充满担忧，但最长时间盯着屏幕的一代是老年人)”、第四段中“While older people face fewer online risks than teenagers for they have stable real-life relationships and formed worldviews, new dangers emerge as more seniors go online.(虽然老年人由于拥有稳定的现实生活关系和成熟的世界观，相较于青少年面临更少的网络风险，但随着越来越多的老年人上网，新的危险也随之出现)”以及第五段中“The elderly are twice as likely as under-25s to use news apps or websites.(老年人使用新闻应用程序或网站的可能性是25岁以下人群的两倍)”可知，作者主要通过对比来展开文章的观点。故选D。 D A small cut could cause infection 100 years ago, yet since the mid-20th century we have had antibiotics (抗生素) such as penicillin to fight disease-causing bacteria (细菌). But over time, the bacteria have developed ways to become less responsive to treatment. This growing resistance to antibiotics poses a threat to global health. The strength of antibiotics is weakening as many types of bacteria become immune (免疫的) to the drugs we use. One recent forecast estimates that by 2050, 39 million people worldwide could die as a direct consequence of not finding new and efficient weapons against bacteria. But there is good news as well: US researchers have found a promising place we could look for the antibiotics of the future: inside our own bodies. “Our discovery emphasizes the human microbiome (微生物组) as a previously unexplored source of antibiotics,” Cesar de la Fuente tells Science Illustrated. His team of researchers from the University of Pennsylvania’s Machine Biology Group examined collections of gut microbes (肠道微生物) from 1773 people, using AI to screen thousands of proteins. In this way, they found hundreds of possible substances that, according to Cesar de la Fuente, could be the antibiotics of the future. “One of our promising candidates — prevotellin-2, taken from the gut microbe Prevotella copri — showed efficiency in animal models,” says Cesar de la Fuente. According to the research, which was published in the journal Cell, the wealth of candidates found in the gut may be due to a particularly highly competitive environment in that part of the body. “To survive, bacteria must have produced some special substances that will kill other bacteria,” says Cesar de la Fuente. In a study, the researchers found the special substances produced by some bacteria can either make their competing bacteria die, or affect their important activities, causing them to stop working and die. 32. What is the main problem mentioned in the text? A. Treatment is often delayed and weak. B. Existing antibiotics cause side effects. C. Bacteria are growing more resistant. D. Disease-causing bacteria are increasing. 33. What can we learn about the antibiotics of the future? A. They will be created by AI systems. B. They may come from the human microbiome. C. They can stop different bacterial competitions. D. They’ll solve the problem of antibiotic resistance by 2050. 34. What can be inferred about prevotellin-2 from the text? A. It has cured many patients. B. It has replaced existing antibiotics. C. It is a widely-used antibiotic now. D. It proves effective in animal models. 35. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about? A. The method of testing new antibiotic drugs. B. The importance of antibiotics for global health. C. The cause of the gut’s rich antibiotic candidates. D. The role of diet in producing antibacterial substances. 【答案】32. C 33. B 34. D 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了细菌耐药性增强带来的问题，以及未来可能从人体微生物组中寻找新抗生素的研究。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“This growing resistance to antibiotics poses a threat to global health. The strength of antibiotics is weakening as many types of bacteria become immune (免疫的) to the drugs we use. (这种对抗生素日益增强的耐药性对全球健康构成了威胁。随着许多种类的细菌对我们使用的药物产生免疫力，抗生素的效力正在减弱)”可知，文中提到的主要问题是细菌的耐药性越来越强。故选C。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“But there is good news as well: US researchers have found a promising place we could look for the antibiotics of the future: inside our own bodies. “Our discovery emphasizes the human microbiome (微生物组) as a previously unexplored source of antibiotics,” Cesar de la Fuente tells Science Illustrated. (但也有好消息：美国研究人员发现了一个有望找到未来抗生素的地方：我们自己的身体内部。塞萨尔·德拉富恩特告诉《科学画报》：“我们的发现强调了人体微生物组是一个以前未被探索的抗生素来源。”)”可知，未来的抗生素可能来自人体微生物组。故选B。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段““One of our promising candidates — prevotellin-2, taken from the gut microbe Prevotella copri — showed efficiency in animal models,” says Cesar de la Fuente. (塞萨尔·德拉富恩特说：“我们一个很有前途的候选药物——从肠道微生物普雷沃氏菌中提取的普雷沃氏菌素-2，在动物模型中显示出了疗效。”)”可知，普雷沃氏菌素-2在动物模型中证明有效。故选D。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“According to the research, which was published in the journal Cell, the wealth of candidates found in the gut may be due to a particularly highly competitive environment in that part of the body. “To survive, bacteria must have produced some special substances that will kill other bacteria,” says Cesar de la Fuente. (根据发表在《细胞》杂志上的这项研究，在肠道中发现的丰富候选药物可能是由于身体该部位竞争特别激烈的环境。“为了生存，细菌必须产生一些能杀死其他细菌的特殊物质，”塞萨尔·德拉富恩特说)”可知，本段主要讲述了肠道中抗生素候选药物丰富的原因。故选C。 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。 Whether we’ve hurt someone’s feelings, or messed up a work project, we can use our errors as opportunities to stop, reflect, and bounce back. ___36___ ___37___ This means taking responsibility for what you did. At the same time, don’t blame yourself or beat yourself up over the “shoulds”. Also, let yourself feel all your emotions, whether it’s a little embarrassment or a lot of regret. If you can, fix it. Sometimes awareness itself isn’t enough — it calls for a response. ___38___ The purpose isn’t to “get it right,” but to simply ease whatever pain we’ve caused and do whatever is in our power to resolve the matter at hand. Don’t get stuck in your mistakes. Given the fact that the human brain is naturally programmed to focus on negative emotions, it takes commitment to walk away from our regrets. When you find your thoughts wandering to how awful it feels and why you didn’t do better, stop for a moment and take a deep breath. ___39___ Look at the big picture. Sometimes what we perceive as a mistake is the breakthrough that was necessary to change a relationship. ___40___ By looking at things objectively, we might see that our so-called mistake doesn’t have the terrible impact we initially thought it did. A. Accept emotions while taking responsibility. B. Avoid feeling embarrassed and regretful. C. It’s important to figure out why you made the mistake. D. Remember, it’s never too late to make a genuine attempt. E. After that, redirect your attention to something that truly deserves it. F. After all, what defines us isn’t our mistakes but the way we react to them. G. Or maybe what we feel embarrassed about isn’t a big deal in the long run. 【答案】36. F 37. A 38. D 39. E 40. G 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍的是应对错误的建议。 【36题详解】 空前“Whether we’ve hurt someone’s feelings, or messed up a work project, we can use our errors as opportunities to stop, reflect, and bounce back.(无论我们是伤害了他人的感情，还是搞砸了工作项目，我们都可以把错误当作契机，停下来反思并重新振作。)”说明我们可以把错误当作停下来反思并重新振作的机会。F选项“After all, what defines us isn’t our mistakes but the way we react to them.(毕竟，决定我们是谁的并非错误本身，而是我们应对错误的方式。)”完美承接主题，既总结又升华，引出下文具体建议。故选F。 【37题详解】 空格处是段落主题句。由空后“This means taking responsibility for what you did. At the same time, don’t blame yourself or beat yourself up over the “shoulds”. Also, let yourself feel all your emotions, whether it’s a little embarrassment or a lot of regret.(这意味着要为自己所做的事承担责任。与此同时，不要因为那些“本应该”而责怪自己或过度自责。此外，要允许自己感受所有的情绪，无论是一点点尴尬还是很多懊悔。)”可知，本段主要讲的是既要承担责任，也要接纳自己的情绪，A选项“Accept emotions while taking responsibility.(接纳情绪，同时承担责任。)”精准概括这两点，可作为主题句。故选A。 【38题详解】 空前“If you can, fix it. Sometimes awareness itself isn’t enough — it calls for a response.(如果可以的话，就去弥补。有时候，仅仅意识到错误是不够的——它需要我们做出回应。)”强调采取行动，D选项“Remember, it’s never too late to make a genuine attempt.(记住，真心尝试永远都不嫌晚。)”说明了真心尝试永远不晚，也是强调要努力行动，因此符合语境，故选D。 【39题详解】 空前“When you find your thoughts wandering to how awful it feels and why you didn’t do better, stop for a moment and take a deep breath.(当你发现自己的思绪飘向那种糟糕的感觉以及自己为什么没能做得更好时，停下来片刻，深呼吸。)”提到当思绪飘向负面情绪时要停下来深呼吸。E选项“After that, redirect your attention to something that truly deserves it.(之后，将你的注意力转移到真正值得关注的事情上。)”是具体行动步骤，“After that”指代前文“stop...take a deep breath”。故选E。 【40题详解】 本段主旨句“Look at the big picture.(从大局着眼。)”说明要看大局，空前“Sometimes what we perceive as a mistake is the breakthrough that was necessary to change a relationship.(有时候，我们认为的错误恰恰是改变一段关系所必需的突破口。)”提到所谓的错误可能是改变关系的必要突破。G选项“Or maybe what we feel embarrassed about isn’t a big deal in the long run.(或者，从长远来看，让我们感到尴尬的事情或许并没有那么严重。)”与“看大局”主题一致，“Or maybe”表示并列补充，“in the long run”对应“big picture”，因此符合语境。故选G。 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四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I’ve worked at a small local grocery store in my town three separate times.

We played a mix of hard rock and heavy metal. We weren’t great, but we were good enough to come in third place at our school’s talent show. And when we got a chance to give a charitable performance at a large rehabilitation (康复) hospital, we were excited. It was our first real job. For two weeks we practiced hard, getting together every day after school to polish our skills and learn enough songs to fill a one-hour show, expecting to receive thundering applause. The day of the concert, we showed up early in order to check out the stage. It was stressful to stand there and look out at the hundred or so chairs lined up below us. We did a quick sound check, and then went backstage to have a soda and rest, anything to calm our nerves. While we were back there the hospital’s entertainment director Ms. Evans came over to talk to us. “Okay, boys, I just want to fill you in on a couple of important details,” Ms. Evans told us. “A lot of people in the audience are suffering from severe physical and/or mental disabilities. Also, many of them are older, in their sixties and seventies.” Ms. Evans cast a glance to the auditorium (观众席) and added, “Don’t let that alarm you. These patients have very few chances to see live entertainment of any kind, so they enjoy any kind of musical talent that we can bring in. Just play your regular show, and you’ll do fine.” We all nodded. With that, Ms. Evans left, going into the auditorium to help the volunteers and staff that were assisting the patients to their seats. The majority of them had either been seriously injured in accidents or born with major birth defects (缺陷). Many of them were missing limbs. Some were talking quietly among themselves, but most were just sitting there, quietly watching the stage. 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。 Soon enough it was show time, and we stepped out of the thick curtain onto the stage. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Since no one was applauding us, we cut our performance short and went backstage. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Soon enough it was show time, and we stepped out of the thick curtain onto the stage. Our hearts pounded as we launched into our first song, the familiar chords echoing through the auditorium. But as we glanced at the audience, we saw blank stares and unresponsive faces. The patients seemed lost in their own worlds, unaffected by our music. We tried to play louder, to inject more energy into our performance, but it was no use. The silence was deafening, and we felt a growing sense of disappointment and frustration. Since no one was applauding us, we cut our performance short and went backstage. We slumped against the wall, our heads hanging low. “What went wrong?” one of us muttered. Just then, Ms. Evans appeared, her face gentle and understanding. “Don’t be discouraged,” she said softly. “For many of these patients, music is a distant memory. But your presence here means a lot to them. Maybe you could try playing something softer, something that might touch their hearts.” Her words gave us hope, and we decided to give it another try, this time with a different approach. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了少年时期的作者所在的硬摇滚乐队获得机会，在一家大型康复医院进行慈善演出。他们辛苦排练两周，期待获得热烈掌声。演出当天，他们提前到场准备，医院娱乐主管Evans女士告知他们：观众大多是六七十岁的老人，许多人患有严重的身体或精神障碍，有的缺肢或有先天缺陷，平时很少有机会观看现场演出。乐队成员们看到观众们安静入座，等待演出开始。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“很快，表演时间到了，我们从厚重的幕布后面走出来，登上舞台。”可知，第一段可描写乐队登台演出时遭遇的冷场状况以及成员们由此产生的负面情绪。 ②由第二段首句内容“由于没有人为我们鼓掌，我们便提前结束了表演，回到了后台。”可知，第二段可描写乐队因无人鼓掌而提前结束表演回到后台后的沮丧状态，以及在埃文斯女士的安慰与建议下重燃希望并决定改变表演方式的转变过程。 2.续写线索：投入演奏——观察观众——调整表演——演出受挫——获得安慰——女士给出建议——重燃希望 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①看：glance at/peek at ②注入：inject/infuse ③出现：appear/show up 情绪类 ①失望：disappointment/despair ②沮丧：frustration/depression 【点睛】[高分句型1] Our hearts pounded as we launched into our first song, the familiar chords echoing through the auditorium.

According to district data, 70%of Louisa teachers now use AI tools at least weekly-far above the national average reported in a recent EdWeek Research Center survey. (A report carried out nationwide released by the Center for Democracy and Technology) Tools and Guidance in Action The district has actively supported this growth. After teacher feedback called for clearer direction, Louisa developed practical AI guidelines and adopted SchoolAI, a platform designed for lesson planning and student activities. Trainings and a shared AI resource center have helped teachers integrate technology into classrooms. Challenges Remain Still, challenges remain. Some Louisa teachers do not use AI at all. Surveys show the main reasons include lack of training time, concerns about reliability, and limited access to tools. As one Trevilians Elementary teacher noted, practicing alone is very different from using AI with students. Student reactions are also mixed. Some worry AI could “take over the world,” while others appreciate its help as a learning assistant. Teachers like Marcia Flora are addressing fears by explaining that “AI is just one tool” and encouraging critical thinking. Looking Ahead Louisa continues to adjust its approach. One example is the AI “traffic light” that teachers could share with students to help make it clear on which parts of a particular assignment students could turn to AI for help. Green means students may use AI with citation; yellow means limited use; and red means no AI allowed. These tools help integrate AI into daily learning while encouraging proper use. As the technology develops, Louisa’s experience offers a real-time model of how schools can prepare students for a tech-driven future. 21. What percentage of the teachers nationwide are using AI in the classroom? A. 24%. B. 61%. C. 63%. D. 70%. 22. Why do some Louisa teachers avoid using AI? A. They believe it will take over the world. B. They feel unprepared to integrate AI effectively. C. They feel uncomfortable to adopt AI fully. D. They find the students depend too much on AI. 23. What does the AI “traffic light” system do? A. It limits teachers’ use of AI in lessons. B. It controls the Internet speed in classrooms. C. It is used to teach students about road safety. D. It guides students on proper AI use. B The basketball felt awkward in my hands as I watched my teenage opponent effortlessly dribble (运球) past me for the twentieth time. He moved with natural grace, making my attempts seem comical (可笑的). How did I, someone who hadn’t played sports since my middle school, end up being schooled by someone half my age? It all began when I decided to find a new hobby. My original plan was to join a soccer team, but my wife warned, “You may twist your ankle. I’d rather not spend our weekends in hospital.” So I settled on basketball — a sport I’d enjoyed watching but never actually played. My biggest fear starting out wasn’t physical injury, but social embarrassment. For the first few weeks, I stuck to basic athletic wear, hoping to look like someone who did belong in the sport. I also worried about being picked last or laughed at, just like in middle school PE classes. However, everyone at the community court proved incredibly supportive — even when I accidentally passed the ball to the wrong team. This experience drove home a point: my deepest anxiety wasn’t about missing shots, but about feeling unskilled around more experienced players. After months, my performance was still far from perfect. I’d occasionally travel with the ball, and three minutes of full-court running could still leave me breathless. However, any frustration (挫败) was overshadowed when my seven-year-old son joined the youth basketball program. While he’s still learning the rules, he enjoys practicing with his peers. What truly matters to him, and consequently to me, is the joy of us learning together in the same place. Basketball hasn’t transformed me into a skilled player, but there is something valuable: the importance of trying things beyond your experience and natural abilities. You might surprise yourself with what you can learn. Of course, the first lesson should be that if you have your ankle injured, you shouldn’t keep playing. But that whole “challenging yourself” lesson is definitely a close second. 24. What caused the author to choose basketball instead of soccer? A. His urge to find a new hobby. B. His lifelong passion for basketball. C. His wife’s concern about his safety. D. His teenage opponent’s recommendation. 25. What was the true source of the author’s anxiety? A. The feeling of not being good enough. B. The fear of not staying safe and sound. C. The pressure from his son’s high expectations. D. The experience of missing shots in a PE class 26. What can be inferred from paragraph 4? A. The author’s basketball skills improved a lot. B. The author’s lack of talent brought him deep regret. C. The author’s goal was to coach his son to be an outstanding player D. The author’s happiness came from learning basketball with his son. 27. What is the most valuable lesson for the author? A. The importance of challenging oneself. B. The value of building friendships. C. The benefit of avoiding injuries. D. The significance of enhancing skills. C Few things delight children, or annoy their parents, as much as screen time. Parents urge their children to put down their digital devices and pick up a book or a football. Some countries are banning social media for under-16s. The worry may be focused on the wrong age group. For all the fears around teens and screens, the most square-eyed generation is the elderly. Older people have long been champion TV-viewers. Now, with smartphones and tablets, their screen time has grown even longer. In fact, screens now take up more than half of their waking hours. The digitization of old age is a good thing. The elderly have perhaps more to gain from smart devices than any other age group. Facebook brings daily updates from old friends and faraway grandchildren. Online shopping removes the need to walk around shops. A connected retirement is more satisfying and fun than an offline one. While older people face fewer online risks than teenagers for they have stable real-life relationships and formed worldviews, new dangers emerge as more seniors go online. Unlike those of teenagers, their devices are often linked to credit cards. Door-to-door conmen (骗子), who have long spied on the elderly, can now go iPad-to-iPad. Governments rightly try to protect children from online conmen. They must recognize that there is another, fast-growing vulnerable group to look after. A second cost is misinformation. The elderly are twice as likely as under-25s to use news apps or websites. Older people also appear to be more susceptible (易受影响的) than others to online tricks. As older generations spend more time online, they are entering a Wild West of information. And the elderly are frequently reported to be misled. Policymakers have often banned youth crazes, from rock’n’roll to violent video games. Now, with seniors using screens more, we must also calmly discuss their digital needs and support. 28. Who does “square-eyed generation” in paragraph 1 probably refer to? A. People criticizing social media. B. People enjoying reading books. C. People spending too much time on screens. D. Parents worrying about their children. 29. What do paragraphs 4 and 5 mainly talk about? A. The differences in online risks between the elderly and teenagers. B. The bad things the elderly are facing online. C. The generation gap in using news apps and websites. D. The measures governments should take to protect the elderly online. 30. What is the author’s main purpose of writing this article? A. To draw urgent attention to teenagers’ screen time. B. To blame the elderly for their long screen time C. To suggest banning the elderly from using smart devices. D. To call for more protection for the elderly in the digital world. 31. How does the author mainly develop the idea in the text? A. By quoting experts. B. By giving examples. C. By providing statistics. D. By making comparisons. D A small cut could cause infection 100 years ago, yet since the mid-20th century we have had antibiotics (抗生素) such as penicillin to fight disease-causing bacteria (细菌). But over time, the bacteria have developed ways to become less responsive to treatment. This growing resistance to antibiotics poses a threat to global health. The strength of antibiotics is weakening as many types of bacteria become immune (免疫的) to the drugs we use. One recent forecast estimates that by 2050, 39 million people worldwide could die as a direct consequence of not finding new and efficient weapons against bacteria. But there is good news as well: US researchers have found a promising place we could look for the antibiotics of the future: inside our own bodies. “Our discovery emphasizes the human microbiome (微生物组) as a previously unexplored source of antibiotics,” Cesar de la Fuente tells Science Illustrated. His team of researchers from the University of Pennsylvania’s Machine Biology Group examined collections of gut microbes (肠道微生物) from 1773 people, using AI to screen thousands of proteins. In this way, they found hundreds of possible substances that, according to Cesar de la Fuente, could be the antibiotics of the future. “One of our promising candidates — prevotellin-2, taken from the gut microbe Prevotella copri — showed efficiency in animal models,” says Cesar de la Fuente. According to the research, which was published in the journal Cell, the wealth of candidates found in the gut may be due to a particularly highly competitive environment in that part of the body. “To survive, bacteria must have produced some special substances that will kill other bacteria,” says Cesar de la Fuente. In a study, the researchers found the special substances produced by some bacteria can either make their competing bacteria die, or affect their important activities, causing them to stop working and die. 32. What is the main problem mentioned in the text? A. Treatment is often delayed and weak. B. Existing antibiotics cause side effects. C. Bacteria are growing more resistant. D. Disease-causing bacteria are increasing. 33. What can we learn about the antibiotics of the future? A. They will be created by AI systems. B. They may come from the human microbiome. C. They can stop different bacterial competitions. D. They’ll solve the problem of antibiotic resistance by 2050. 34. What can be inferred about prevotellin-2 from the text? A. It has cured many patients. B. It has replaced existing antibiotics. C. It is a widely-used antibiotic now. D. It proves effective in animal models. 35. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about? A. The method of testing new antibiotic drugs. B. The importance of antibiotics for global health. C. The cause of the gut’s rich antibiotic candidates. D. The role of diet in producing antibacterial substances. 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。 Whether we’ve hurt someone’s feelings, or messed up a work project, we can use our errors as opportunities to stop, reflect, and bounce back. ___36___ ___37___ This means taking responsibility for what you did. At the same time, don’t blame yourself or beat yourself up over the “shoulds”. Also, let yourself feel all your emotions, whether it’s a little embarrassment or a lot of regret. If you can, fix it.

Don’t get stuck in your mistakes. Given the fact that the human brain is naturally programmed to focus on negative emotions, it takes commitment to walk away from our regrets. When you find your thoughts wandering to how awful it feels and why you didn’t do better, stop for a moment and take a deep breath. ___39___ Look at the big picture.

We played a mix of hard rock and heavy metal. We weren’t great, but we were good enough to come in third place at our school’s talent show. And when we got a chance to give a charitable performance at a large rehabilitation (康复) hospital, we were excited. It was our first real job. For two weeks we practiced hard, getting together every day after school to polish our skills and learn enough songs to fill a one-hour show, expecting to receive thundering applause. The day of the concert, we showed up early in order to check out the stage. It was stressful to stand there and look out at the hundred or so chairs lined up below us. We did a quick sound check, and then went backstage to have a soda and rest, anything to calm our nerves. While we were back there the hospital’s entertainment director Ms. Evans came over to talk to us. “Okay, boys, I just want to fill you in on a couple of important details,” Ms. Evans told us. “A lot of people in the audience are suffering from severe physical and/or mental disabilities. Also, many of them are older, in their sixties and seventies.” Ms. Evans cast a glance to the auditorium (观众席) and added, “Don’t let that alarm you. These patients have very few chances to see live entertainment of any kind, so they enjoy any kind of musical talent that we can bring in. Just play your regular show, and you’ll do fine.” We all nodded. With that, Ms. Evans left, going into the auditorium to help the volunteers and staff that were assisting the patients to their seats. The majority of them had either been seriously injured in accidents or born with major birth defects (缺陷). Many of them were missing limbs. Some were talking quietly among themselves, but most were just sitting there, quietly watching the stage. 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。 Soon enough it was show time, and we stepped out of the thick curtain onto the stage. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Since no one was applauding us, we cut our performance short and went backstage. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $That handbag looks nice, but it's a bit too expensive.
