[素能提升练] Ⅰ.阅读理解(每小题2.5分，共20分) A (2025·山东省实验中学高二上) The rapid development of technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) has been influencing education at all levels，from primary and secondary to higher education. Countries around the world are trying to find ways to use AI more flexibly in education，so as to provide education for students in faraway areas and teach people the skills needed to get successful jobs in the 21st century.China has become a leader in the application of AI in education and training by developing smart learning systems and stepping up research on AI. An important area of research is the possible use of AI to promote language learning.AI can help teachers to tailor resources for learners，producing their specific resources according to individual learners’ needs and improve students’ performance.Researchers from Beijing Normal University explored how an automatic resource generation system can help in teaching Chinese as a second language in schools. The researchers developed a model to use AI to ensure the resources meet learners’ needs，with studies showing the use of the teaching-learning model improved students’ performance.Students who were taught lessons using the model more actively participated in the course. In addition to teaching languages，AI can also be used to help students of all ages to learn about different cultures.Researchers from Beijing Foreign Studies University，and some other foreign universities have been exploring ways to use AI to help students from different countries learn from each other and know about each other’s cultures while sitting in the comfort of their homes. With the development of machine learning，AI has the potential to change education if designed and applied properly.AI applications should be designed in a way that they benefit learners and educators.For that purpose，rules for learners，teachers and other staff in educational organizations should be in place. 1.Why are countries exploring the use of AI in education？ A.To become a leader in the world. B.To prepare people for future jobs. C.To develop smart learning system. D.To advance the use of AI in research. 2.What does the underlined word “tailor” in Paragraph 3 mean？ A.Apply widely. B.Buy cheaply. C.Process carefully. D.Design specially. 3.What does the author suggest in the last paragraph？ A.Making proper rules. B.Inventing smart systems. C.Conducting more researches. D.Learning different cultures. 4.What is the text mainly about？ A.The rapid development of AI. B.AI application in language teaching. C.Possible uses of AI in education. D.The development of machine learning. 　　语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了人工智能对教育的重要作用。 1.答案：B 解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Countries around the world are trying to find ways to use AI more flexibly in education，so as to provide education for students in faraway areas and teach people the skills needed to get successful jobs in the 21st century.”可知，各个国家探索人工智能在教育中的使用是为了为偏远地区的学生提供教育，并使人们为未来工作做好准备。故选B。 2.答案：D 解析：词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句“AI can help teachers to tailor resources for learners，producing their specific resources according to individual learners’ needs and improve students’ performance.”可知，根据个人学习者的需求生成特定的资源，并提高学生的表现，这指的是因材施教，为学习者量身定制学习资源，故tailor意为“根据特定需要制作”，与D项“特别设计”意思相近。故选D。 3.答案：A 解析：细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“For that purpose，rules for learners，teachers and other staff in educational organizations should be in place.”可知，作者建议要制定合适的规则。故选A。 4.答案：C 解析：主旨大意题。通读全文，并根据第一段内容可知，本文主要讲述了人工智能对教育的重要作用，并具体介绍了人工智能的使用。故选C。 B (2025·辽宁省名校联盟高二下学期3月月考) For this year’s Fourth of July celebration，some U.S.cities have replaced traditional fireworks with impressive drone (无人机) light shows.Maybe most importantly，the drones being employed by more and more cities for Fourth of July celebrations don’t leave behind a blanket of smoke at a time when America’s air quality is already at its worst in decades. “Around the world，we’ve seen consistently that，during times when firework usage is really high，we have really bad air quality，” said Pallavi Pant，the head of global health at the Health Effects Institute.And while that pollution typically disappears quickly—usually around noon on July 5th—the concentration can be high enough to worsen the condition for those with breathing problems.Cities making the switch to high-tech shows say there’re plenty of other reasons why people may want to avoid traditional fireworks. “Fireworks can be harmful to folks who suffer from PTSD (创伤后应激障碍) or families who have dogs.Salt Lake City has more households with dogs than we do with kids，” said Lynze Twede，a manager for Salt Lake City Public Lands.“Being away from fireworks is considered by many to be the tendency of the future.Drones are reusable，while with fireworks，you have smoke，falling debris (碎片)，and noise which especially stresses dogs and people with PTSD out.” About 12，264 fires were started by firework displays in 2021，according to the National Fire Protection Association.Those added up to around $59 million in direct property damage.But data also shows that much of the wildfire risk comes not from grand public displays，but from the small-scale shows on sidewalks. It may be too early to tell how this tendency may get close to smaller shows and consumers，but the price is a limiting factor. 5.What is the most important reason for U.S.cities’ giving up traditional firework shows？ A.To reduce fire risks. B.To prevent noise pollution. C.To protect the environment. D.To support new technology. 6.What aspect of fireworks typically threatens people with PTSD and dogs？ A.Their thick smoke. B.Their falling debris. C.Their frightening noise. D.Their shining bright light. 7.What does the data from the National Fire Protection Association show？ A.Public fireworks win more people’s favor. B.Street fireworks present more fire threats. C.Usage of fireworks is on the decrease. D.Prevention of fireworks is costly. 8.What is the text mainly about？ A.What response Americans have to drone light shows. B.Why some U.S.cities replace fireworks with drones. C.How Americans celebrate special events. D.How drone shows develop in America. 　　语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。文章分析了美国一些城市在国庆节庆祝活动中用无人机灯光秀取代传统烟花表演的原因，包括保护环境、减少火灾风险、避免噪音污染以及对特殊人群和宠物的影响等。 5.答案：C 解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中“Maybe most importantly，the drones being employed...is already at its worst in decades.”可知，美国一些城市放弃传统烟花表演最重要的原因是保护环境。故选C项。 6.答案：C 解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中“Drones are reusable，while with fireworks，you have smoke，falling debris (碎片)，and noise which especially stresses dogs and people with PTSD out.”可知，燃放烟花的声音会使患有创伤后应激障碍的人群和狗感到紧张。故选C项。 7.答案：B 解析：细节理解题。根据第四段中“But data also shows that much of the wildfire risk comes not from grand public displays，but from the small-scale shows on sidewalks.”可知，街头烟花表演存在更大的火灾隐患。故选B项。 8.答案：B 解析：主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其根据第一段中“For this year’s Fourth of July celebration，some U.S.cities have replaced traditional fireworks with impressive drone (无人机) light shows.”和第二段中“Cities making the switch to high-tech shows say there’re plenty of other reasons why people may want to avoid traditional fireworks.”可知，文章主要讨论了美国一些城市为什么选择用无人机灯光秀取代传统烟花表演，包括保护环境、减少火灾风险、避免噪音污染以及对应激障碍患者和宠物的影响等多方面原因。故选B项。 Ⅱ.阅读七选五(每小题2.5分，共12.5分) (2025·山东省济宁市高二上学期1月期末) A 30-year observational study at the University of South Carolina found that swimmers had about half the risk of death from any cause compared to participants who were runners or walkers.Notably，the advantage applies broadly，as you don’t have to do butterfly or freestyle to get the benefit.　1　 Here are the many advantages of water fitness.
