The eighth-graders from Phillip Whitworth’s classes did this by selling tickets for admission to the Annual Carnival Fundraiser, where they packed into the school’s gymnasium and played a huge variety of carnival games. The funds raised go toward a charitable organization that drills water wells in Africa. “Knowledge is useless without action,” Phillip said of the event, which was started by Phillip and his wife in 2019, inspired by a book read in the school district called A Long Walk to Water. The novel tells the story of a fictional character named Nya, an 11-year-old South Sudanese girl who has to walk eight hours a day to bring home water, and the real-life Salva Dut, who founded an organization called Water for South Sudan. To raise money, the Whitworths and Phillip’s students organized the school’s first annual carnival in 2019. Every year, the students choose the games that most people like and sell tickets to their classmates, and get donations from businesses and personal connections. Camryn Robinson, an eighth-grader, found the experience of gathering donations stressful but added that it helped improve her communication skills. “A lot of people don’t take children seriously at first. But if you show people that it’s not just a carnival — it’s something that’s bigger than that, they will listen,” Camryn said. Over the years, the students have raised money to drill three new wells and repair another three in South Sudan. This year, the students sold a little over 700 tickets for $5 each, so they raised around $3,500. But when factoring in business and personal donations, the students have raised more than $10,000, with donations still coming in. “We might not be able to solve the whole problem, but we can absolutely make a difference for some people,” Phillip said. 24. What role did A Long Walk to Water play in the fundraising campaign? A. It inspired Salva Dut to join the mission. B. It taught students to organize a carnival. C. It led to the start of the charitable cause. D. It motivated businesses to donate money. 25. What do Phillip’s students do for the annual carnival? A. They drill wells in person. B. They organize some games. C. They work at different companies. D. They collect tickets from cinemas. 26. What did Camryn Robinson say about gathering donations? A. It was very rewarding. B. It was unchallenging. C. Kids shouldn’t get involved. D. Most people initially supported it. 27. What is paragraph 5 mainly about? A. Phillip’s objective comments. B. Dramatic changes in South Sudan. C. The outcome of the students’ efforts. D. Donations from all over the world. 【答案】24. C 25. B 26. A 27.

The largest study examined 2,164 patient interactions, with similar patterns emerging across smaller datasets. The results, published in the British Medical Bulletin, challenge long-held assumptions about human connection in medicine and run counter to a 2019 UK government report that called empathy an “essential human skill that AI cannot replicate(复制).” ChatGPT and similar AI chatbots scored roughly 2 points higher than human healthcare professionals (HCPs) on 10-point empathy scales when responding to patient questions via text. AI had a 73% probability of being rated as more empathic than human practitioners in head-to-head comparisons. “In text-only scenarios, AI chatbots are frequently perceived as more empathic than human HCPs,” study authors wrote. The meta-analysis from the Universities of Nottingham and Leicester pooled data from 13 of the 15 studies comparing AI chatbots to doctors, nurses, and other healthcare workers. Studies drawing from Reddit health forums and patient portals showed similar trends. Questions ranged from interpreting blood test results to managing chronic conditions to understanding cancer treatment options. Across this variety, AI responses were more likely to be rated as warm, understanding, and considerate of patient concerns. The studies couldn’t determine whether AI’s perceived empathy advantage translates to better health outcomes. While empathic communication has been linked to reduced patient pain and anxiety, improved medication adherence, and higher satisfaction with care, these studies measured perception rather than clinical impact. The findings suggest that empathetic AI can provide valuable support in healthcare fields, thereby enhancing the roles these technologies can play in our everyday lives. While the results were strong, this study represents a broad perspective and does not account for differences in socio-cultural backgrounds among participants. Cultural differences can greatly influence how empathy is perceived and assessed. Future work could look closely at how people from different backgrounds view empathetic responses in both humans and AI to enhance understanding in this area. 28. What is the main finding of the analysis? A. Empathy is a unique human skill beyond AI’s reach. B. Patients find AI’s medical replies more sympathetic. C. AI provides more effective treatment plans than humans. D. AI shows greater competence in routine patient inquiries. 29. What’s the primary purpose of paragraph 2? A. To present research evidence. B. To explain underlying causes. C. To predict future developments. D. To describe relevant background. 30. What can be implied from paragraph 3? A. AI’s empathy is irrelevant to patient satisfaction. B. AI’s empathy may not improve actual clinical outcomes. C. AI’s assistance is widely applied across different patient groups. D. AI’s empathy can directly lead to better health conditions of patients. 31. What is the author’s attitude towards the studies? A. Supportive. B. Doubtful. C. Critical. D. Objective. 【答案】28. B 29. A 30. B 31. D 【语篇导读】这是一篇说明文。研究发现患者认为 AI 医疗回复比医生更有同理心，并给出相关数据。但未证实其能提升疗效，且研究未考虑社会文化差异，态度客观。 28. 细节理解题。根据第一段“A surprising analysis of 15 studies reveals that patients perceive more warmth in AI-generated medical responses than in those from human doctors.(对15项研究的意外分析表明，患者在面对由人工智能生成的医疗回复时，感受到的温暖程度要高于从人类医生那里得到的回复)”可知，该分析的主要发现是患者认为人工智能给出的医疗回复更具同情心。故选B。 29. 推理判断题。根据第二段“ChatGPT and similar AI chatbots scored roughly 2 points higher than human healthcare professionals (HCPs) on 10-point empathy scales when responding to patient questions via text.

Cultural differences can greatly influence how empathy is perceived and assessed.(虽然研究结果十分显著，但这项研究视角较为宽泛，并未考虑到参与者之间在社会文化背景方面的差异。文化差异会对同理心的感知和评估产生重大影响)”可知，作者对这些研究持客观态度。故选D。 D Facial expressions are central to social life, yet scientists still don’t fully understand how the brain produces them. For decades, one influential theory has held that what appears on your face is largely an emotional reflex — an honest, automatic readout of what you feel inside. But that view struggles to explain the fact that we often tailor our expressions to the moment. To find out what’s going on in the brain during facial expressions, researchers turned to monkeys. They recorded neural(神经的) activity while the animals interacted with one another in the lab. The team’s results published in Science came as a surprise: the monkeys’ expressions, from a threatening face to a friendly “lip-smacking”, were generated by both the medial cortex(内侧皮层) and lateral cortex(外侧皮层). These two brain regions were long thought to operate independently, but the study showed that both of them participated in the production of all kinds of facial expressions. The two regions did, however, run at different speeds. Activity in the lateral cortex reoriented quickly, to coordinate the rapid facial movements that make for smooth social interaction. By contrast, things happen at a more leisurely pace in the medial cortex, perhaps allowing it to track slow-changing contextual factors that influence facial expressions. What’s more, both neural patterns show up before facial movements do, suggesting the brain prepares expressions in advance. This all raises a question: Do monkeys intentionally plan the faces they make? That’s the interpretation evolutionary psychologists explore in the new study. If facial expressions are partly voluntary, they may be less like emotional mirrors and more like “tools for social influence”, as the researchers put it. At the very least, they seem to arise from complex interactions between emotion and cognition. Alan Fridlund, a social and evolutionary psychologist who was not involved in this study, has no trouble believing monkeys hold their faces strategically. But he doubts that staged, lab-bound interactions can capture the full reality of monkeys’ communications, or the neural activity underlying it; ideally, future research would take place in the monkeys’ natural environment. Still, Fridlund says, the new study “tells us in infinitely more detail how we can investigate the neurology of facial displays.” 32. What does the study reveal about the medial cortex and lateral cortex? A. They record neural activities. B. They perform different functions. C. They cooperate to create expressions. D. They stimulate the conveyance of emotions. 33. What does the underlined word “reoriented” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Shifted. B. Decreased. C. Appeared. D. Expanded. 34. What is Alan Fridlund’s suggestion for future research? A. Collecting specific data. B. Experimenting in nature. C. Detailing the observations. D. Expanding research subjects. 35. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A. What matters to socialization? B. Decode the signals of emotions C. Facial expressions mirror emotions D. Are facial displays made intentionally? 【答案】32. C 33. A 34. B 35. D 【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍一项发表在《Science》上的研究，探讨了面部表情的神经机制，挑战了“表情=情绪自动反射”的传统观点，提出了表情可能是认知与情绪交互作用、具有社交目的性的新视角。 32.细节理解题。根据第二段“The team’s results published in Science came as a surprise: the monkeys’ expressions, from a threatening face to a friendly “lip-smacking”, were generated by both the medial cortex (内侧皮层) and lateral cortex (外侧皮层). These two brain regions were long thought to operate independently, but the study showed that both of them participated in the production of all kinds of facial expressions.(该团队发表在《科学》杂志上的研究结果令人惊讶：猴子从威胁性的表情到友好的“咂嘴”等各种表情，都是由内侧皮层和外侧皮层共同产生的。长久以来，人们一直认为这两个大脑区域独立运作，但这项研究表明，它们都参与了各种面部表情的产生。)”可知，这项研究揭示了内侧皮层和外侧皮层协同作用以形成表情。故选C。 33.词义猜测题。根据第三段“Activity in the lateral cortex reoriented quickly, to coordinate the rapid facial movements that make for smooth social interaction(外侧皮层的活动能快速reoriented，以协调那些有助于实现流畅社交互动的快速面部动作)”可知，外侧皮层的活动迅速调整，以协调快速面部动作，从而实现顺畅的社交互动，reoriented的意思是“调整”，和shifted意思相近。故选A。 34.细节理解题。根据最后一段“But he doubts that staged, lab-bound interactions can capture the full reality of monkeys’ communications, or the neural activity underlying it; ideally, future research would take place in the monkeys’ natural environment.(不过，他怀疑在实验室这种人为安排的互动场景中，能否捕捉到猴子交流及其背后神经活动的全部真相；理想情况下，未来的研究应在猴子的自然环境中进行。)”可知，艾伦·弗里德伦德对于未来的研究的建议是在自然环境中进行实验。故选B。 35. 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是倒数第二段“This all raises a question: Do monkeys intentionally plan the faces they make? That’s the interpretation evolutionary psychologists explore in the new study. If facial expressions are partly voluntary, they may be less like emotional mirrors and more like “tools for social influence”, as the researchers put it. At the very least, they seem to arise from complex interactions between emotion and cognition.(这一切引发了一个问题：猴子会有意规划自己的面部表情吗？这是进化心理学家在这项新研究中探讨的一种解释。如果面部表情在一定程度上是自愿做出的，那么它们可能就不太像是情绪的镜子，而更像是“社交影响的工具”，正如研究人员所说的那样。至少，面部表情似乎是由情绪和认知之间的复杂相互作用产生的。)”可知，本文主要介绍这项发表在《Science》上的研究，探讨了面部表情的神经机制，挑战了“表情=情绪自动反射”的传统观点，提出了表情可能是认知与情绪交互作用、具有社交目的性的新视角，因此最恰当的标题是D选项“Are facial displays made intentionally?(面部表情是刻意做出的吗？)”。故选D。 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。 Severe floods are becoming more and more common around the world. ___36___, but could the way that cities are growing be making things worse? Could we design cities in a different way to reduce the risk of flooding? As cities expand and more and more land is underneath concrete, less water is absorbed and more needs to be channelled away by storm drains and sewage(污水) systems. As they become overwhelmed by the volume of water, the risk of flash flooding increases. ___37___? Chinese landscape architect Yu Kongjian certainly thinks so. In 2013, he proposed the concept of ‘sponge(海绵) cities’, which are designed to absorb water like a sponge, reducing the risk of sudden floods. Natural solutions are encouraged, using riverside parks and ponds to absorb floodwater. ___38___. Auckland, in New Zealand, was named the spongiest city in one study. It has replaced the concrete culverts(涵洞) around the Oakley creek stream with green banks and connected parks. This has reduced flooding in the nearby residential areas as well as the number of associated pollutants which used to be washed into the sea. What Auckland has taken is only a natural approach. ___39___, In Amsterdam, the Netherlands’ capital city, people have fixed blue-green roofs on a number of buildings. These roofs have a layer of plants on the outside, and then layers underneath which collect and store rainwater. This water can be used by people in the building below to water plants or clean toilets. Advanced software can even tell the roofs to release water ahead of upcoming storms to maximize the system’s ability to absorb rainwater. ___40___. A. A system like that does actually work B. The warming climate is leading to heavier rainfall C. Could it be that we’ve been taking the wrong approach D. But a much more high-tech method has already been applied E. Approaches inspired by this have been taken by cities across the world F. Is the natural approach sufficient when we’re faced with increased rainfall G. It can even identify the city’s risky areas and tailor the response accordingly 【答案】36. B 37. C 38. E 39. D 40.

He’d bought it decades ago in Paris, and often told her it captured their summers: chasing fireflies, eating strawberry shortcake by the lake, her first bike ride. But since grandpa’s weak heart diagnosis last year, things changed. He couldn’t walk far or talk long, and the camera — once a constant — was put in a dusty attic(阁楼) box, forgotten like an unfinished story. Last Saturday, mom had her clean the attic. Moving a pile of sweaters, her fingers brushed cold metal — the camera case. Dusting it off, the pine scent hit her, stinging her eyes. Opening it with a click, she saw the camera (lens still shiny, as if polished yesterday) and a small unopened film roll. Taped to it: grandpa’s messy handwriting, “For Lily — our 7th summer, the one with the rainbow.” Lily’s heart jumped — she remembered that summer well: they’d gotten caught in the rain picking blueberries, then a rainbow curved over the field. She’d begged for photos, but he laughed, “Save it for later, kiddo.” Now “later” came. Glancing back, under the camera, she found a faded brown developing kit, labeled: “Emergency film developing.” Suddenly she recalled how he’d taught her to develop film in the bathroom sink as a kid — now, she knew what she should do. 注意： 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。 Paragraph1: After developing the film roll, Lily rushed to her room and found an old photo printer. __________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: The next morning, Lily held the photos and the camera tightly and ran to the hospital. ___________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【参考范文】 Paragraph 1: After developing the film roll, Lily rushed to her room and found an old photo printer. Her palms were sweaty, as she was afraid of messing up the precious memories hidden in the film. She carefully loaded the film roll into the machine — fingers still trembling — and clicked “print.” When the first photo slid out, she held her breath: 7-year-old her, soaked but grinning with a blueberry bucket, Grandpa’s hand holding an umbrella over her, the rainbow bright above. Her lips quivered slightly, and warm tears rolled down her cheeks unconsciously. More photos followed, each stirring soft memories. She brushed a tear off the photo, heart warm with longing to show Grandpa. Paragraph 2: The next morning, Lily held the photos and the camera tightly and ran to the hospital. Her heart raced with both excitement and nervousness, wondering if Grandpa could still recognize those precious moments. Handing them to Grandpa, his tired eyes widened, and then softened. His fingers traced the rainbow gently, as if touching a fragile treasure, a faint smile tugging at his lips. “You were so small then,” he whispered. Lily placed the camera in his palm, and he seized it gently, adjusting the lens like old times. “Let’s take one together tomorrow,” he said. Lily leaned in, smiling through tears — this camera didn’t just bring back the past, but pulled them closer. 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。Lily一直喜爱爷爷的旧相机，它记录着他们的夏日时光。但爷爷生病后，相机被遗忘在阁楼。上周六Lily打扫阁楼时发现了相机、未开封的胶卷及显影套装，她决定按爷爷曾教的方法冲洗照片。 【详解】 1.段落续写 ①由第一段句首内容“冲洗完胶卷后，Lily冲回房间，找出一台旧照片打印机。”可知，第一段可以描写Lily冲洗胶卷后，急切又紧张地用旧照片打印机打印照片的动作和心理，打印出照片后看到童年回忆的动容场景，以及想把照片带给爷爷看的迫切心愿。 ②由第二段句首内容“第二天早上，Lily紧紧攥着照片和相机，跑向医院。”可知，第二段可以描写Lily带着照片和相机赶往医院的心情，把照片递给爷爷后，爷爷的神态、动作和语言，两人回忆过往并约定一起拍照，最后升华主旨：相机和照片不仅唤醒回忆，更拉近了祖孙间的距离。 2.续写线索：冲洗胶卷后打印照片 —— 紧张操作打印机 —— 看到照片回忆童年动容 —— 带着照片相机赶往医院 —— 爷爷看到照片的反应 —— 约定拍照、拉近祖孙距离 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①点击打印：click “print” /press the print button/tap print ②擦去泪水：brush a tear off/wipe away tears from ③递给某人某物：hand sth. to sb./give sth. to sb./pass sth. to sb. 情绪类 ①兴奋：excitement/thrill ②紧张：nervousness/anxiety 【点睛】 【高分句型1】Her heart raced with both excitement and nervousness, wondering if Grandpa could still recognize those precious moments.

The eighth-graders from Phillip Whitworth’s classes did this by selling tickets for admission to the Annual Carnival Fundraiser, where they packed into the school’s gymnasium and played a huge variety of carnival games. The funds raised go toward a charitable organization that drills water wells in Africa. “Knowledge is useless without action,” Phillip said of the event, which was started by Phillip and his wife in 2019, inspired by a book read in the school district called A Long Walk to Water. The novel tells the story of a fictional character named Nya, an 11-year-old South Sudanese girl who has to walk eight hours a day to bring home water, and the real-life Salva Dut, who founded an organization called Water for South Sudan. To raise money, the Whitworths and Phillip’s students organized the school’s first annual carnival in 2019. Every year, the students choose the games that most people like and sell tickets to their classmates, and get donations from businesses and personal connections. Camryn Robinson, an eighth-grader, found the experience of gathering donations stressful but added that it helped improve her communication skills. “A lot of people don’t take children seriously at first. But if you show people that it’s not just a carnival — it’s something that’s bigger than that, they will listen,” Camryn said. Over the years, the students have raised money to drill three new wells and repair another three in South Sudan. This year, the students sold a little over 700 tickets for $5 each, so they raised around $3,500.

C A surprising analysis of 15 studies reveals that patients perceive more warmth in AI-generated medical responses than in those from human doctors. The largest study examined 2,164 patient interactions, with similar patterns emerging across smaller datasets. The results, published in the British Medical Bulletin, challenge long-held assumptions about human connection in medicine and run counter to a 2019 UK government report that called empathy an “essential human skill that AI cannot replicate(复制).” ChatGPT and similar AI chatbots scored roughly 2 points higher than human healthcare professionals (HCPs) on 10-point empathy scales when responding to patient questions via text. AI had a 73% probability of being rated as more empathic than human practitioners in head-to-head comparisons. “In text-only scenarios, AI chatbots are frequently perceived as more empathic than human HCPs,” study authors wrote. The meta-analysis from the Universities of Nottingham and Leicester pooled data from 13 of the 15 studies comparing AI chatbots to doctors, nurses, and other healthcare workers. Studies drawing from Reddit health forums and patient portals showed similar trends. Questions ranged from interpreting blood test results to managing chronic conditions to understanding cancer treatment options. Across this variety, AI responses were more likely to be rated as warm, understanding, and considerate of patient concerns. The studies couldn’t determine whether AI’s perceived empathy advantage translates to better health outcomes. While empathic communication has been linked to reduced patient pain and anxiety, improved medication adherence, and higher satisfaction with care, these studies measured perception rather than clinical impact. The findings suggest that empathetic AI can provide valuable support in healthcare fields, thereby enhancing the roles these technologies can play in our everyday lives. While the results were strong, this study represents a broad perspective and does not account for differences in socio-cultural backgrounds among participants. Cultural differences can greatly influence how empathy is perceived and assessed. Future work could look closely at how people from different backgrounds view empathetic responses in both humans and AI to enhance understanding in this area. 28. What is the main finding of the analysis? A. Empathy is a unique human skill beyond AI’s reach. B. Patients find AI’s medical replies more sympathetic. C. AI provides more effective treatment plans than humans. D. AI shows greater competence in routine patient inquiries. 29. What’s the primary purpose of paragraph 2? A. To present research evidence. B. To explain underlying causes. C. To predict future developments. D. To describe relevant background. 30. What can be implied from paragraph 3? A. AI’s empathy is irrelevant to patient satisfaction. B. AI’s empathy may not improve actual clinical outcomes. C. AI’s assistance is widely applied across different patient groups. D. AI’s empathy can directly lead to better health conditions of patients. 31. What is the author’s attitude towards the studies? A. Supportive. B. Doubtful. C. Critical. D. Objective. D Facial expressions are central to social life, yet scientists still don’t fully understand how the brain produces them. For decades, one influential theory has held that what appears on your face is largely an emotional reflex — an honest, automatic readout of what you feel inside. But that view struggles to explain the fact that we often tailor our expressions to the moment. To find out what’s going on in the brain during facial expressions, researchers turned to monkeys. They recorded neural(神经的) activity while the animals interacted with one another in the lab. The team’s results published in Science came as a surprise: the monkeys’ expressions, from a threatening face to a friendly “lip-smacking”, were generated by both the medial cortex(内侧皮层) and lateral cortex(外侧皮层). These two brain regions were long thought to operate independently, but the study showed that both of them participated in the production of all kinds of facial expressions. The two regions did, however, run at different speeds. Activity in the lateral cortex reoriented quickly, to coordinate the rapid facial movements that make for smooth social interaction. By contrast, things happen at a more leisurely pace in the medial cortex, perhaps allowing it to track slow-changing contextual factors that influence facial expressions. What’s more, both neural patterns show up before facial movements do, suggesting the brain prepares expressions in advance. This all raises a question: Do monkeys intentionally plan the faces they make? That’s the interpretation evolutionary psychologists explore in the new study. If facial expressions are partly voluntary, they may be less like emotional mirrors and more like “tools for social influence”, as the researchers put it. At the very least, they seem to arise from complex interactions between emotion and cognition. Alan Fridlund, a social and evolutionary psychologist who was not involved in this study, has no trouble believing monkeys hold their faces strategically. But he doubts that staged, lab-bound interactions can capture the full reality of monkeys’ communications, or the neural activity underlying it; ideally, future research would take place in the monkeys’ natural environment. Still, Fridlund says, the new study “tells us in infinitely more detail how we can investigate the neurology of facial displays.” 32. What does the study reveal about the medial cortex and lateral cortex? A. They record neural activities. B. They perform different functions. C. They cooperate to create expressions. D. They stimulate the conveyance of emotions. 33. What does the underlined word “reoriented” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Shifted. B. Decreased. C. Appeared. D. Expanded. 34. What is Alan Fridlund’s suggestion for future research? A. Collecting specific data. B. Experimenting in nature. C. Detailing the observations. D. Expanding research subjects. 35. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A. What matters to socialization? B. Decode the signals of emotions C. Facial expressions mirror emotions D. Are facial displays made intentionally? 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。 Severe floods are becoming more and more common around the world. ___36___, but could the way that cities are growing be making things worse? Could we design cities in a different way to reduce the risk of flooding? As cities expand and more and more land is underneath concrete, less water is absorbed and more needs to be channelled away by storm drains and sewage(污水) systems. As they become overwhelmed by the volume of water, the risk of flash flooding increases. ___37___? Chinese landscape architect Yu Kongjian certainly thinks so. In 2013, he proposed the concept of ‘sponge(海绵) cities’, which are designed to absorb water like a sponge, reducing the risk of sudden floods. Natural solutions are encouraged, using riverside parks and ponds to absorb floodwater. ___38___. Auckland, in New Zealand, was named the spongiest city in one study. It has replaced the concrete culverts(涵洞) around the Oakley creek stream with green banks and connected parks. This has reduced flooding in the nearby residential areas as well as the number of associated pollutants which used to be washed into the sea. What Auckland has taken is only a natural approach. ___39___, In Amsterdam, the Netherlands’ capital city, people have fixed blue-green roofs on a number of buildings. These roofs have a layer of plants on the outside, and then layers underneath which collect and store rainwater. This water can be used by people in the building below to water plants or clean toilets. Advanced software can even tell the roofs to release water ahead of upcoming storms to maximize the system’s ability to absorb rainwater. ___40___. A. A system like that does actually work B. The warming climate is leading to heavier rainfall C. Could it be that we’ve been taking the wrong approach D. But a much more high-tech method has already been applied E. Approaches inspired by this have been taken by cities across the world F. Is the natural approach sufficient when we’re faced with increased rainfall G. It can even identify the city’s risky areas and tailor the response accordingly 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和D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 A group of senior high school graduates visited their old professor, eager to share postgraduation twists.

He’d bought it decades ago in Paris, and often told her it captured their summers: chasing fireflies, eating strawberry shortcake by the lake, her first bike ride. But since grandpa’s weak heart diagnosis last year, things changed. He couldn’t walk far or talk long, and the camera — once a constant — was put in a dusty attic(阁楼) box, forgotten like an unfinished story. Last Saturday, mom had her clean the attic. Moving a pile of sweaters, her fingers brushed cold metal — the camera case. Dusting it off, the pine scent hit her, stinging her eyes. Opening it with a click, she saw the camera (lens still shiny, as if polished yesterday) and a small unopened film roll. Taped to it: grandpa’s messy handwriting, “For Lily — our 7th summer, the one with the rainbow.” Lily’s heart jumped — she remembered that summer well: they’d gotten caught in the rain picking blueberries, then a rainbow curved over the field. She’d begged for photos, but he laughed, “Save it for later, kiddo.” Now “later” came. Glancing back, under the camera, she found a faded brown developing kit, labeled: “Emergency film developing.” Suddenly she recalled how he’d taught her to develop film in the bathroom sink as a kid — now, she knew what she should do. 注意： 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。 Paragraph1: After developing the film roll, Lily rushed to her room and found an old photo printer. __________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: The next morning, Lily held the photos and the camera tightly and ran to the hospital. ___________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试题 第3页（共10页） 试题 第4页（共10页） 试题 第1页（共10页） 试题 第2页（共10页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026年高考考前预测卷02 (江苏卷) 高三英语 (考试时间：120分钟 试卷满分：150分) 注意事项： 1. 答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号等填写在答题卡和试卷指定位置上。 2. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用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。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 3. 考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 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，你有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 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。每段对话读两遍。 1.

The eighth-graders from Phillip Whitworth’s classes did this by selling tickets for admission to the Annual Carnival Fundraiser, where they packed into the school’s gymnasium and played a huge variety of carnival games. The funds raised go toward a charitable organization that drills water wells in Africa. “Knowledge is useless without action,” Phillip said of the event, which was started by Phillip and his wife in 2019, inspired by a book read in the school district called A Long Walk to Water. The novel tells the story of a fictional character named Nya, an 11-year-old South Sudanese girl who has to walk eight hours a day to bring home water, and the real-life Salva Dut, who founded an organization called Water for South Sudan. To raise money, the Whitworths and Phillip’s students organized the school’s first annual carnival in 2019. Every year, the students choose the games that most people like and sell tickets to their classmates, and get donations from businesses and personal connections. Camryn Robinson, an eighth-grader, found the experience of gathering donations stressful but added that it helped improve her communication skills. “A lot of people don’t take children seriously at first. But if you show people that it’s not just a carnival — it’s something that’s bigger than that, they will listen,” Camryn said. Over the years, the students have raised money to drill three new wells and repair another three in South Sudan. This year, the students sold a little over 700 tickets for $5 each, so they raised around $3,500. But when factoring in business and personal donations, the students have raised more than $10,000, with donations still coming in. “We might not be able to solve the whole problem, but we can absolutely make a difference for some people,” Phillip said. 24. What role did A Long Walk to Water play in the fundraising campaign? A. It inspired Salva Dut to join the mission. B. It taught students to organize a carnival. C. It led to the start of the charitable cause. D. It motivated businesses to donate money. 25. What do Phillip’s students do for the annual carnival? A. They drill wells in person. B. They organize some games. C. They work at different companies. D. They collect tickets from cinemas. 26. What did Camryn Robinson say about gathering donations? A. It was very rewarding. B. It was unchallenging. C. Kids shouldn’t get involved. D. Most people initially supported it. 27. What is paragraph 5 mainly about? A. Phillip’s objective comments. B. Dramatic changes in South Sudan. C. The outcome of the students’ efforts. D. Donations from all over the world.

He’d bought it decades ago in Paris, and often told her it captured their summers: chasing fireflies, eating strawberry shortcake by the lake, her first bike ride. But since grandpa’s weak heart diagnosis last year, things changed. He couldn’t walk far or talk long, and the camera — once a constant — was put in a dusty attic(阁楼) box, forgotten like an unfinished story. Last Saturday, mom had her clean the attic. Moving a pile of sweaters, her fingers brushed cold metal — the camera case. Dusting it off, the pine scent hit her, stinging her eyes. Opening it with a click, she saw the camera (lens still shiny, as if polished yesterday) and a small unopened film roll. Taped to it: grandpa’s messy handwriting, “For Lily — our 7th summer, the one with the rainbow.” Lily’s heart jumped — she remembered that summer well: they’d gotten caught in the rain picking blueberries, then a rainbow curved over the field. She’d begged for photos, but he laughed, “Save it for later, kiddo.” Now “later” came. Glancing back, under the camera, she found a faded brown developing kit, labeled: “Emergency film developing.” Suddenly she recalled how he’d taught her to develop film in the bathroom sink as a kid — now, she knew what she should do. 注意： 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。 Paragraph1: After developing the film roll, Lily rushed to her room and found an old photo printer. __________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: The next morning, Lily held the photos and the camera tightly and ran to the hospital. ___________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 10 / 11 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
