B “She was doomed (注定的) — no ship built by human hands could have withstood the pressure.” When polar explorer Ernest Shackleton wrote this journal entry on October 27, 1915, his dreams of reaching Antarctica had been famously crushed — along with his ship, HMS Endurance. Shackleton blamed the sinking of the Endurance on the destruction of its rudder (舵) and for more than a century, historians accepted this explanation. Now, an analysis suggests that structural weakness caused the Endurance to sink, and that Shackleton knew about his ship’s failings, but still, that wasn’t enough to stop him from buying it, according to Dr. Jukka Tuhkuri, a professor at Aalto University in Finland. “I think that Endurance was the best possible ship he could get when he needed it and at a price he could afford,” Tuhkuri said. A ship that became caught between pack ice, a type of free-floating ice — was at the mercy of the ice. If the crew was fortunate, winds or currents would eventually shift, the ice would loosen its control and the ship would break free. But if the crew were unlucky, the ice would squeeze their ship until it broke. Tuhkuri was part of the 2022 research that located the Endurance shipwreck. At the time, he was surprised to learn that no one had used structural engineering to evaluate why the Endurance sank. The Endurance, which Tuhkuri learned from historic records, was built for Arctic visits during the summer, not for navigating Antarctic pack ice. Shackleton’s correspondence with colleagues suggests he knew how important diagonal beams (对角梁) were for resisting compressive ice, Tuhkuri found. And from aboard the Endurance, Shackleton wrote to his wife, Emily, admitting that Endurance was “not as strong” as his previous ship, the Nimrod, and adding “I would exchange her for the old Nimrod any day now.” It’s difficult to say for sure why Shackleton set aside his own doubt and prior knowledge to take such a huge risk, Tuhkuri said. But in those days, risk-taking was part and parcel of polar exploration. 24. What was the traditional explanation for Endurance’s sinking? A. The captain’s wrong decisions. B. Structural weakness of the ship. C Destruction of the ship’s rudder. D. Poor quality of building materials. 25. Why did Shackleton buy Endurance with a fault? A. It was recommended by his friends. B. He planned to rebuild it completely. C. He didn’t believe the ship would encounter ice. D. It was the best ship he could afford at that time. 26. What can we infer about Shackleton’s polar exploration from paragraph 6? A. Endurance was particularly built for the polar exploration. B. Shackleton sailed Endurance on the expedition despite its fault. C. Shackleton’s wife was firmly opposed to his polar expedition. D. Endurance’s diagonal beams did meet the requirement of expedition. 27 What can be a suitable title for the text? A. The Risk-taking Spirit in Polar Exploration B. The Reasons for the Sinking of the Endurance C. The Analysis of the Endurance’s Structural Weakness D. The Story of Shackleton’s Failed Antarctic Expedition C The elderly residents (居民) in care homes in London are being given hens to look after to stop them feeling lonely. The project was dreamed up by a local charity (慈善组织) to reduce loneliness and improve elderly people’s wellbeing. It is also being used to help patients suffering dementia, a serious illness of the mind. Staff in care homes have reported a reduction in the use of medicine where hens are in use. Among those taking part in the project is 80-year-old Ruth Xavier. She said: “I used to keep hens when I was younger and had to prepare their breakfast each morning before I went to school. ” “I like the project a lot. I am down there in my wheelchair in the morning letting the hens out and down there again at night to see they’ve gone to bed.” “It’s good to have a different focus. People have been bringing their children in to see the hens and residents come and sit outside to watch them. I’m enjoying the creative activities, and it feels great to have done something useful.” There are now 700 elderly people looking after hens in 20 care homes in the North East, and the charity has been given financial support to roll it out countrywide. Wendy Wilson, extra care manager at 60 Penfold Street, one of the first to embark on the project, said: “Residents really welcome the idea of the project and the creative sessions. We are looking forward to the benefits and fun the project can bring to people here.” Lynn Lewis, director of Notting Hill Pathways, said: “We are happy to be taking part in the project. It will really help connect our residents through a shared interest and creative activities.” 28. What is the purpose of the project? A. To ensure harmony in care homes. B. To provide part-time jobs for the aged. C. To raise money for medical research. D. To promote the elderly people’s welfare. 29. How has the project affected Ruth Xavier? A. She has learned new life skills. B. She has gained a sense of achievement. C. She has recovered her memory. D. She has developed a strong personality. 30. What do the underlined words “embark on” mean in paragraph 7? A. Improve. B. Oppose. C. Begin. D. Evaluate. 31. What can we learn about the project from the last two paragraphs? A. It is well received. B. It needs to be more creative. C. It is highly profitable. D. It takes ages to see the results. D Today, the rise of AI-generated art has launched an interesting and complex discussion about creativity and the heart of art. The arrival of tools like DALL·E, which give individuals the ability to create images from text-based instructions, is enabling those without traditional artistic training to explore their creative urges. However, this ease of access and creation has raised concerns about the devaluation (贬值) of artistic skills. AI-generated art has made the creative process less complicated. It has opened doors for individuals who, though lacking formal artistic training, possess a deep appreciation of beauty and creativity. This has led to a boom in diverse and imaginative expressions, overcoming traditional barriers to artistic creation. However, critical people argue that AI-generated art lacks the internal value of traditional art, which is deeply integrated with the artist’s personal journey, skills, and emotional investment. This perceived decrease in artistic quality has raised worries about the “lost art of art”. Images are generated with little sense of design — only the lifeless digital recommendations. The true fundamental nature of art lies not in the medium but in the human experience and perspective that shape it. Despite its complex programming, AI lacks the capacity for emotional depth, context, and the nuanced (微妙的) understanding that human artists bring to their work. Therefore, the role of the human artist and audience remains central, even in an AI-dominated landscape. As AI-generated art continues to develop, becoming increasingly complex and nuanced, it is ready to act as a promoter for human creativity. The rapidly improving quality of AI-generated art is not just a technological miracle (奇迹) but a creative motivation that pushes human artists to explore a new frontier of imagination. Artists are now challenged to dig deeper into their creative reserves, integrating AI’s abilities to enhance their work to astonishing levels. This dynamic interaction is creating a rich soil for innovation, where the boundaries of human creativity are constantly being redefined. The future of art, therefore, is not an either-or choice between human and AI, but a collaborative journey where each pushes the other toward new heights of creativity. 32. What can people do with DALL·E? A. Develop artistic imagination. B. Provide suggestions about artists’ works. C. Recommend art courses based on demand. D. Generate artworks based on text description. 33. Which is the disadvantage of AI-generated art compared to traditional art? A. It has fewer ways to express. B. It restricts people’s creativity. C. It lacks emotional connection. D. It requires a high level of skills. 34. What is the author’s attitude toward AI-generated art? A. Critical. B. Objective. C. Supportive. D. Unclear. 35. What is the best title for the text? A. The Nature of Art B. Stimulating Creativity in Art C. The Development of AI-Generated Art D. Discussion about AI-Generated Art 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。 Horace, the famous Roman poet who lived from 65 BC to 8 BC, once said, “The poet’s aim is to combine the delightful and the useful.” A poet will take insights into our world covered in fog and cut through that fog to reveal the truth beneath in their poetry. ____36____ Poetry is rich in wisdom and knowledge, yet it is often remarkably brief in form. We’re living in a world where everything becomes so fast-paced that it’s hard to focus on anything for long. ____37____ It allows us to start and finish something of value within life’s small windows of time - whether we’re waiting for the bus with our child, or seeking a meaningful thought to share at the dinner table. It can be spoken over our audience, or used to start a deeper discussion. Similar to the way in which poetry reveals hidden, yet familiar truths, it can also reveal hidden yet familiar beauty. When a poet uses beautiful language to describe elements of beauty within our world, we may feel shocked. ____38____ Only then will we realize that we have never fully appreciated the things around us. We begin to learn the art of treasuring what we have. ____39____ By thoughtfully engaging with poetry, we step into the perspectives of others. In the process, we will sharpen our awareness, deepen our empathy (同理心), and actively expand our emotional intelligence. To pass down the power of poetry to the next generation, it’s best to develop a love and appreciation for it in our children from an early age. ____40____ This practice offers an opportunity to create a bonding experience and lasting memories. A. A short poem is a gift for us. B. Poems can inspire us in a number of ways. C. In this way, poetry helps us understand the world better. D. Poetry fuels our curiosity and unlocks further exploration. E. It involves spending plenty of time reading poems together. F. Poetry gives voice to our shared human emotions and experiences. G. Suddenly we become aware of the beauty so close yet unseen before. 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。 My husband our children and I have had wonderful camping experiences over the past ten years.

Dad smiled, handing us a list, “Lily, you’ll handle planning the layout (布局) and buying seedlings (幼苗). Tom, you’ re in charge of clearing the weeds and digging the soil. Teamwork makes the dream work” He paused, glancing at the calendar on the wall where Mom’s birthday was circled in red. “Three months is quite enough for those potato seedlings to bear fruit—perfect timing if we get started now.” The first weekend, conflict erupted. I spent hours researching online but forgot to buy the seedlings, comforting myself “too busy with homework.” Tom was pulling weeds for hours, sweating profusely. Several days later, he marched into the garden expecting to find rows of seedlings, only to be met with empty yard, and then exploded with anger, shouting “You didn’t even do your basic job I’m doing all the hard work while you’re sitting on the couch Look！ My gloves are worn out” I fired back, “Digging is easy My part requires intelligence, not just brute force” We refused to speak to each other, leaving the half-cleared yard in chaos. Dad didn’t intervene immediately; instead, he left a note on the kitchen table, “Labor teaches us responsibility, and teamwork means supporting each other, not blaming.” That night, I couldn’t sleep, remembering how Tom had helped me fix my bike last year, even though he’d had a fever. Meanwhile, Tom lay in his room staring at the layout paper I threw to him earlier that week, recalling the way I’d lingered over the layout drawings many times, saying, “Mom will definitely love it.” The next morning, I woke up at dawn, grabbed my wallet, and raced to the store. I came back with not just tomato seedlings but also a new pair of gardening gloves for Tom. 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。 Para. 1: Tom was already in the backyard when I arrived. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Para. 2: Finally, the big day came—Mom’s birthday. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 河南省信阳高级中学北湖校区 2025-2026学年高二上期02月期末测试 英语试题 考生注意： 1.答题前，请务必将自己的姓名、准考证号用黑色字迹的签字笔或钢笔分别填写在试题卷和答题纸规定的位置上。 2．答题时，请按照答题纸上“注意事项”的要求，在答题纸相应的位置上规范作答，在本试题卷上的作答一律无效。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题纸上。 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 例：How much is the shirt?

The Mayan peoples first arrived in the rainforests of southern Mexico and Central America around 3,000 years ago. Their civilization is a fascinating one for many reasons, as we’ll see this morning. It lasted for about 1,900 years, and fortunately, enough buildings and objects have survived from that time to give us a good picture of what their life was like. Over here is a model of one of their amazing pyramids which is still standing. It’s called El Castillo. It’s just under 100 feet high — that’s 30 metres in total, including the small temple on top. It has four sides, as you see from this model, and each side has a staircase with 91 steps. So in total, including the final sort of “step” on top, that makes how many steps? Yes, 365 — and that, of course, is the number of days in a year! 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A UC Berkeley Youth Recreation Summer Camps UC Berkeley Youth Recreation will provide a wide variety of one-week outdoor experiences and activities for the youth on summer camps 2023.

Shackleton blamed the sinking of the Endurance on the destruction of its rudder (舵) and for more than a century, historians accepted this explanation. Now, an analysis suggests that structural weakness caused the Endurance to sink, and that Shackleton knew about his ship’s failings, but still, that wasn’t enough to stop him from buying it, according to Dr. Jukka Tuhkuri, a professor at Aalto University in Finland. “I think that Endurance was the best possible ship he could get when he needed it and at a price he could afford,” Tuhkuri said. A ship that became caught between pack ice, a type of free-floating ice — was at the mercy of the ice. If the crew was fortunate, winds or currents would eventually shift, the ice would loosen its control and the ship would break free. But if the crew were unlucky, the ice would squeeze their ship until it broke. Tuhkuri was part of the 2022 research that located the Endurance shipwreck. At the time, he was surprised to learn that no one had used structural engineering to evaluate why the Endurance sank. The Endurance, which Tuhkuri learned from historic records, was built for Arctic visits during the summer, not for navigating Antarctic pack ice. Shackleton’s correspondence with colleagues suggests he knew how important diagonal beams (对角梁) were for resisting compressive ice, Tuhkuri found. And from aboard the Endurance, Shackleton wrote to his wife, Emily, admitting that Endurance was “not as strong” as his previous ship, the Nimrod, and adding “I would exchange her for the old Nimrod any day now.” It’s difficult to say for sure why Shackleton set aside his own doubt and prior knowledge to take such a huge risk, Tuhkuri said. But in those days, risk-taking was part and parcel of polar exploration. 24. What was the traditional explanation for Endurance’s sinking? A. The captain’s wrong decisions. B. Structural weakness of the ship. C. Destruction of the ship’s rudder. D. Poor quality of building materials. 25. Why did Shackleton buy Endurance with a fault? A. It was recommended by his friends. B. He planned to rebuild it completely. C. He didn’t believe the ship would encounter ice. D. It was the best ship he could afford at that time. 26. What can we infer about Shackleton’s polar exploration from paragraph 6? A. Endurance was particularly built for the polar exploration. B. Shackleton sailed Endurance on the expedition despite its fault. C. Shackleton’s wife was firmly opposed to his polar expedition. D. Endurance’s diagonal beams did meet the requirement of expedition. 27. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. The Risk-taking Spirit in Polar Exploration B. The Reasons for the Sinking of the Endurance C. The Analysis of the Endurance’s Structural Weakness D. The Story of Shackleton’s Failed Antarctic Expedition 【答案】24. C 25. D 26. B 27. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。介绍了“耐力号”沉船的传统解释、新研究揭示的结构缺陷原因，以及沙克尔顿购买该船的背景。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Shackleton blamed the sinking of the Endurance on the destruction of its rudder (舵) and for more than a century, historians accepted this explanation. (沙克尔顿将“耐力号”的沉没归咎于船舵的损坏，一个多世纪以来，历史学家都认可这一解释)”可知，传统解释是船舵的损坏。故选C项。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段““I think that Endurance was the best possible ship he could get when he needed it and at a price he could afford,” Tuhkuri said. (Tuhkuri说：“我认为‘耐力号’是他在需要时能得到的、且价格能负担得起的最好的船。”)”可知，这是他当时能负担得起的最好的船。故选D项。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段“Shackleton’s correspondence with colleagues suggests he knew how important diagonal beams (对角梁) were for resisting compressive ice, Tuhkuri found. And from aboard the Endurance, Shackleton wrote to his wife, Emily, admitting that Endurance was “not as strong” as his previous ship (沙克尔顿与同事的通信显示，他知道对角梁对抵御冰的压力有多重要。沙克尔顿在“耐力号”上写信给他的妻子艾米丽，向她承认“耐力号”不如之前的船“坚固”)”可知，沙克尔顿知道船有缺陷但仍用它探险。故选B项。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。第1段引用沙克尔顿的日记，说明“耐力号”注定沉没，他的南极探险梦破碎；第2段介绍了“耐力号”沉没的传统解释以及新研究提出的原因；第3-4段说明了沙克尔顿购买“耐力号”的原因；第5段：解释被浮冰困住的船的两种结局；第6段补充了“耐力号”的设计用途以及沙克尔顿知道船的缺陷；第7段说明了沙克尔顿冒险的原因。由此可知，文章核心围绕“耐力号”沉没的原因展开，从传统解释到新研究结论，“The Reasons for the Sinking of the Endurance (“耐力号”沉没的原因)”能概括全文，最适合作为文章标题。故选B项。 C The elderly residents (居民) in care homes in London are being given hens to look after to stop them feeling lonely. The project was dreamed up by a local charity (慈善组织) to reduce loneliness and improve elderly people’s wellbeing. It is also being used to help patients suffering dementia, a serious illness of the mind. Staff in care homes have reported a reduction in the use of medicine where hens are in use. Among those taking part in the project is 80-year-old Ruth Xavier. She said: “I used to keep hens when I was younger and had to prepare their breakfast each morning before I went to school. ” “I like the project a lot. I am down there in my wheelchair in the morning letting the hens out and down there again at night to see they’ve gone to bed.” “It’s good to have a different focus. People have been bringing their children in to see the hens and residents come and sit outside to watch them. I’m enjoying the creative activities, and it feels great to have done something useful.” There are now 700 elderly people looking after hens in 20 care homes in the North East, and the charity has been given financial support to roll it out countrywide. Wendy Wilson, extra care manager at 60 Penfold Street, one of the first to embark on the project, said: “Residents really welcome the idea of the project and the creative sessions. We are looking forward to the benefits and fun the project can bring to people here.” Lynn Lewis, director of Notting Hill Pathways, said: “We are happy to be taking part in the project. It will really help connect our residents through a shared interest and creative activities.” 28. What is the purpose of the project? A. To ensure harmony in care homes. B. To provide part-time jobs for the aged. C. To raise money for medical research. D. To promote the elderly people’s welfare. 29. How has the project affected Ruth Xavier? A. She has learned new life skills. B. She has gained a sense of achievement. C. She has recovered her memory. D. She has developed a strong personality. 30. What do the underlined words “embark on” mean in paragraph 7? A. Improve. B. Oppose. C. Begin. D. Evaluate. 31. What can we learn about the project from the last two paragraphs? A. It is well received. B. It needs to be more creative. C. It is highly profitable. D. It takes ages to see the results. 【答案】28. D 29. B 30. C 31. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了旨在减少孤独，改善老年人的健康状况的项目。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The project was dreamed up by a local charity (慈善组织) to reduce loneliness and improve elderly people’s wellbeing (该项目由当地一家慈善机构构想，旨在减少孤独，改善老年人的健康状况。)”可知，这个项目的目的是为了减少孤独和提高老年人的幸福感。故选D项。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段““It’s good to have a different focus. People have been bringing their children in to see the hens and residents come and sit outside to watch them. I’m enjoying the creative activities, and it feels great to have done something useful.” (有不同的关注点很好。人们把自己的孩子带进来看母鸡，居民们也来外面坐着看它们。我喜欢创造性的活动，做一些有用的事情的感觉很好。)”可知，Ruth Xavier很享受做这些事，她觉得自己在做有用的事，这能够给她来良好的感觉，因此可知通过该项目她获得了一种成就感。故选B项。 【30题详解】 词句猜测题。根据倒数第二段“Wendy Wilson, extra care manager at 60 Penfold Street, one of the first to embark on the project, said: “Residents really welcome the idea of the project and the creative sessions. We are looking forward to the benefits and fun the project can bring to people here.” (彭福街60号的额外护理经理Wendy Wilson是第一批参与该项目的人之一，她说：“居民们非常欢迎该项目的想法和创意会议。我们期待这个项目能给这里的人们带来好处和乐趣。”)”可知，Wendy Wilson是着手这项工程的人之一，也是做这个项目的创始人之一，因此可知，画线处embark on意为“开始着手做某事”，与C项“Begin (开始)”含义相近。故选C项。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Residents really welcome the idea of the project and the creative sessions. We are looking forward to the benefits and fun the project can bring to people here. (居民们非常欢迎该项目的想法和创意会议。我们期待这个项目能给这里的人们带来好处和乐趣。)”以及最后一段“Lynn Lewis, director of Notting Hill Pathways, said: “We are happy to be taking part in the project. It will really help connect our residents through a shared interest and creative activities.” (“诺丁山路径”的负责人林恩·刘易斯说：“我们很高兴能参与这个项目。它将通过共同的兴趣和创造性活动真正帮助我们的居民联系起来。”)”可知，该项目得到了居民们的认可，大家很欢迎这个项目，而且这个项目将会带来一些好处，因此可知这个项目的反响很好，很受欢迎。故选A项。 【点睛】 D Today, the rise of AI-generated art has launched an interesting and complex discussion about creativity and the heart of art. The arrival of tools like DALL·E, which give individuals the ability to create images from text-based instructions, is enabling those without traditional artistic training to explore their creative urges. However, this ease of access and creation has raised concerns about the devaluation (贬值) of artistic skills. AI-generated art has made the creative process less complicated. It has opened doors for individuals who, though lacking formal artistic training, possess a deep appreciation of beauty and creativity. This has led to a boom in diverse and imaginative expressions, overcoming traditional barriers to artistic creation. However, critical people argue that AI-generated art lacks the internal value of traditional art, which is deeply integrated with the artist’s personal journey, skills, and emotional investment. This perceived decrease in artistic quality has raised worries about the “lost art of art”. Images are generated with little sense of design — only the lifeless digital recommendations. The true fundamental nature of art lies not in the medium but in the human experience and perspective that shape it. Despite its complex programming, AI lacks the capacity for emotional depth, context, and the nuanced (微妙的) understanding that human artists bring to their work. Therefore, the role of the human artist and audience remains central, even in an AI-dominated landscape. As AI-generated art continues to develop, becoming increasingly complex and nuanced, it is ready to act as a promoter for human creativity. The rapidly improving quality of AI-generated art is not just a technological miracle (奇迹) but a creative motivation that pushes human artists to explore a new frontier of imagination. Artists are now challenged to dig deeper into their creative reserves, integrating AI’s abilities to enhance their work to astonishing levels. This dynamic interaction is creating a rich soil for innovation, where the boundaries of human creativity are constantly being redefined. The future of art, therefore, is not an either-or choice between human and AI, but a collaborative journey where each pushes the other toward new heights of creativity. 32. What can people do with DALL·E? A. Develop artistic imagination. B. Provide suggestions about artists’ works. C. Recommend art courses based on demand. D. Generate artworks based on text description. 33. Which is the disadvantage of AI-generated art compared to traditional art? A. It has fewer ways to express. B. It restricts people’s creativity. C. It lacks emotional connection. D. It requires a high level of skills. 34. What is the author’s attitude toward AI-generated art? A. Critical. B. Objective. C. Supportive. D. Unclear. 35. What is the best title for the text? A. The Nature of Art B. Stimulating Creativity in Art C. The Development of AI-Generated Art D. Discussion about AI-Generated Art 【答案】32. D 33. C 34. B 35. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。如今，AI生成艺术逐渐成为艺术领域的新宠。本文探讨了AI生成艺术与传统艺术的对比与融合，还有它带来的挑战和争议，并展示了AI生成艺术的巨大潜力。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“The arrival of tools like DALL·E, which give individuals the ability to create images from text-based instructions, is enabling those without traditional artistic training to explore their creative urges.(像DALL·E这样的工具的到来，使个人能够根据基于文本的指令创建图像，使那些没有传统艺术训练的人能够探索他们的创作冲动)”可知，DALL·E之类的工具的出现，让人们有能力基于文本指令创作图像，故选D项。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段第二句“Despite its complex programming, AI lacks the capacity for emotional depth, context, and the nuanced (微妙的) understanding that human artists bring to their work.(尽管人工智能编程复杂，但它缺乏情感深度、情境以及人类艺术家在工作中带来的细致入微的理解能力)”可知，AI生成的艺术缺乏情感联结，故选C项。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“However, critical people argue that AI-generated art lacks the internal value of traditional art, which is deeply integrated with the artist’s personal journey, skills, and emotional investment.(然而，批评人士认为，人工智能生成的艺术缺乏传统艺术的内在价值，这种价值与艺术家的个人经历、技能和情感投入深度融合)”和第四段中“Despite its complex programming, AI lacks the capacity for emotional depth, context, and the nuanced (微妙的) understanding that human artists bring to their work.(尽管人工智能编程复杂，但它缺乏情感深度、情境以及人类艺术家在工作中带来的细致入微的理解能力)”可知，作者在第三、四段中探讨了人工智能生成艺术的不足，即它缺乏传统艺术的内在价值；根据第五段中“As AI-generated art continues to develop, becoming increasingly complex and nuanced, it is ready to act as a promoter for human creativity.(随着人工智能生成的艺术不断发展，变得越来越复杂和微妙，它已经准备好充当人类创造力的推动者)”和第六段中“The future of art, therefore, is not an either-or choice between human and AI, but a collaborative journey where each pushes the other toward new heights of creativity.(因此，艺术的未来不是人类和人工智能之间的非此即彼的选择，而是一个相互推动的合作之旅，彼此推动对方走向新的创造力高度)”可知，作者对AI生成艺术进行了展望，并提出艺术的未来不是人类和AI之间非此即彼的选择，而是一段合作的旅程。由此可推知，作者对于AI生成艺术的态度是客观的，故选B项。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第一段中“Today, the rise of AI-generated art has launched an interesting and complex discussion about creativity and the heart of art.(今天，人工智能艺术的兴起引发了一场关于创造力和艺术核心的有趣而复杂的讨论)”和最后一段中“The future of art, therefore, is not an either-or choice between human and AI, but a collaborative journey where each pushes the other toward new heights of creativity.(因此，艺术的未来不是人类和人工智能之间的非此即彼的选择，而是一个相互推动的合作之旅，彼此推动对方走向新的创造力高度)”可知，本文主要介绍了AI生成艺术，包括其创造力、与传统艺术的区别、不足之处以及对未来的展望。因此，D项“关于AI生成艺术的讨论”为本文最佳标题。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。 Horace, the famous Roman poet who lived from 65 BC to 8 BC, once said, “The poet’s aim is to combine the delightful and the useful.” A poet will take insights into our world covered in fog and cut through that fog to reveal the truth beneath in their poetry. ____36____ Poetry is rich in wisdom and knowledge, yet it is often remarkably brief in form. We’re living in a world where everything becomes so fast-paced that it’s hard to focus on anything for long. ____37____ It allows us to start and finish something of value within life’s small windows of time - whether we’re waiting for the bus with our child, or seeking a meaningful thought to share at the dinner table. It can be spoken over our audience, or used to start a deeper discussion. Similar to the way in which poetry reveals hidden, yet familiar truths, it can also reveal hidden yet familiar beauty. When a poet uses beautiful language to describe elements of beauty within our world, we may feel shocked. ____38____ Only then will we realize that we have never fully appreciated the things around us. We begin to learn the art of treasuring what we have. ____39____ By thoughtfully engaging with poetry, we step into the perspectives of others. In the process, we will sharpen our awareness, deepen our empathy (同理心), and actively expand our emotional intelligence. To pass down the power of poetry to the next generation, it’s best to develop a love and appreciation for it in our children from an early age. ____40____ This practice offers an opportunity to create a bonding experience and lasting memories. A. A short poem is a gift for us. B. Poems can inspire us in a number of ways. C. In this way, poetry helps us understand the world better. D.

Dad smiled, handing us a list, “Lily, you’ll handle planning the layout (布局) and buying seedlings (幼苗). Tom, you’ re in charge of clearing the weeds and digging the soil. Teamwork makes the dream work” He paused, glancing at the calendar on the wall where Mom’s birthday was circled in red. “Three months is quite enough for those potato seedlings to bear fruit—perfect timing if we get started now.” The first weekend, conflict erupted. I spent hours researching online but forgot to buy the seedlings, comforting myself “too busy with homework.” Tom was pulling weeds for hours, sweating profusely. Several days later, he marched into the garden expecting to find rows of seedlings, only to be met with empty yard, and then exploded with anger, shouting “You didn’t even do your basic job I’m doing all the hard work while you’re sitting on the couch Look！ My gloves are worn out” I fired back, “Digging is easy My part requires intelligence, not just brute force” We refused to speak to each other, leaving the half-cleared yard in chaos. Dad didn’t intervene immediately; instead, he left a note on the kitchen table, “Labor teaches us responsibility, and teamwork means supporting each other, not blaming.” That night, I couldn’t sleep, remembering how Tom had helped me fix my bike last year, even though he’d had a fever. Meanwhile, Tom lay in his room staring at the layout paper I threw to him earlier that week, recalling the way I’d lingered over the layout drawings many times, saying, “Mom will definitely love it.” The next morning, I woke up at dawn, grabbed my wallet, and raced to the store. I came back with not just tomato seedlings but also a new pair of gardening gloves for Tom. 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。 Para. 1: Tom was already in the backyard when I arrived. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Para. 2: Finally, the big day came—Mom’s birthday. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Tom was already in the backyard when I arrived. I approached quietly, holding out the gloves and seedlings. “Sorry I messed up earlier, I shouldn’t have been rude to you.” I mumbled. Tom turned around, with a faint surprise crossing his face. He took them readily and grinned, “That’s all right. Let’s get started.” Together, we planted the seedlings, him digging neat holes and me arranging them according to the layout. Sweat dripped down our faces, but laughter replaced our earlier misunderstanding as we helped each other. We waited, hopeful for a little miracle to take root. Finally, the big day came — Mom’s birthday. We led her to the garden, where ripe tomatoes hung thick and heavy on the branches. Mom hugged us tightly, tears blurring her vision, “This is the best birthday gift — seeing you two work together.” Dad, together with us, picked some fresh tomatoes to make sauce. We enjoyed it, chatting and laughing joyfully. Teamwork and understanding didn’t just grow plants, they bonded our hearts closer and wove our family closer. Family love is a gift far sweeter than any sauce, a memory we would cherish forever. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述父亲提议将杂草丛生的后院改造成菜园，作者负责规划布局和购买幼苗，弟弟汤姆负责清理杂草和挖土，目标是赶在母亲生日时种出蔬菜。首个周末，因作者忘记买幼苗，两人发生冲突。当晚，姐弟俩回忆起对方的好，第二天，作者一早去买了幼苗和手套。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我到的时候，汤姆已经在后院了”可知，第一段续写应围绕姐弟俩和好后一起劳作展开，描述作者道歉，汤姆接受，两人分工协作种植幼苗，充满欢笑，期待植物生根成长。 ②由第二段首句内容“终于，那个重要的日子来临了 —— 妈妈的生日”可知，第二段续写要展现母亲生日当天，菜园成果丰硕，大家一起采摘番茄做酱，一家人欢乐相聚，突出团队合作和理解拉近家人关系，是最珍贵的礼物。 2.续写线索：作者道歉——汤姆接受——两人分工种幼苗——充满欢笑期待收获——母亲生日看到菜园成果感动——家人摘番茄做酱欢乐相聚——感悟团队合作和家庭之爱。 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①接近：approach /get close to ②咧嘴笑：grin /beam ③拥抱：hug /embrace 情绪类 ①欢乐地：joyfully /merrily ②紧紧地：tightly /firmly 【点睛】【高分句型 1】I approached quietly, holding out the gloves and seedlings.（运用现在分词短语 holding out the gloves and seedlings作伴随状语） 【高分句型 2】Mom hugged us tightly, tears blurring her vision, “This is the best birthday gift—seeing you two work together.”（运用独立主格结构） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $听力考试正式开始。Want a dog.

Welcome to the mayan exhibition, part of our amazing civilizations of the past series, and I hope you're going to enjoy our tour today. The mine people's first arrived in the rainforests of southern mexico and central amErica around three thousand years ago. Their civilization is a fascinating one for many reasons, as we'll see this morning. IT lasted for about one thousand nine hundred years, and fortunately, enough buildings and objects have survived from that time. To give us a good picture of what their life was like over here is a model of one of their amazing pyramids, which is still standing. It's called l aco. It's just under one hundred feet high. That's thirty meters in total, including the small temple on top. IT has four sides, as you see from this model, and each side has a staircase with ninety one steps. So in total, including the final sort of step on top, that makes how many steps? Yes, three hundred and sixty five. And that, of course, is the number of days in a year.
