The street where I was standing was full of people, most of them on their way in or out of London’s British Museum. Everything around me cried summer — the tourists wore shorts, T-shirts, skirts — but the sensation I had was of autumn. It wasn’t the date, it was something about the light, which had a different fullness, and that created a different space. I was there to meet Celia Paul. I had been interested in her paintings for a long time, in their distinctive combination of weightlessness and heaviness. I knew from her autobiography that she also worked there, and that only people she had explicitly invited were allowed to set foot inside. I had been invited, but even so I had to wipe the sweat from my palms before pressing the intercom button. A reply came immediately. The kindness in the voice was apparent even through the small, crackly speaker. There was a buzz, I went in and walked up and Celia Paul stood waiting in the hallway inside. When I followed her into the flat, I recognized the floor, worn and dark and made of linoleum, I recognized the plain, white walls, I recognized the window facing the museum, the light that fell through it. And Paul’s face was so familiar that it might have belonged to one of my close friends. Then I saw a painting. The painting seems alive. The chair is not alive, the wall and the floor are not alive. And yet the painting seems just that, alive. This is, I think, because the painting consists of encounters. It emerges brushstroke by brushstroke, in a long-drawn-out moment, continually adjusted. The painting is alive in the sense that it arises out of a process, led and corrected by the artist’s gaze, but also by her ideas, emotions, and expectations, until she considers the painting finished. We see not the chair in itself, as that is for sitting on, but the moment it represents not the world, but our connection to the world. 4. What does the author mean by saying “the sensation I had was of autumn” in Paragraph 1? A. The date was September, so it was already autumn. B. The light had a special quality that felt like autumn. C. The weather was cold and windy, typical of autumn. D. The museum’s white stone walls looked like autumn scenery. 5. We can infer from the text that Celia Paul is ________. A. an open-minded artist who welcomes visitors B. a painter who only creates works for strangers C. a person who values privacy in her life and work D. a friend of the author who often meets in the flat 6. The underlined word “encounters” in Paragraph 4 most probably means________. A. formal meetings B. mutual gazes C. creative ideas D. physical touches 7. What is the main idea of the passage? A. The author’s visit to the British Museum on an autumn day. B. Celia Paul’s unique painting style and artistic achievements. C. The special connection between the author and Celia Paul. D. The author’s experience of meeting Celia Paul and understanding her art. C An AI-powered robot was able to separate a gall bladder (胆囊) from the liver of a dead pig in what researchers claim is the first realistic surgery by a machine with almost no human intervention. The robot is powered by a two-tier AI system trained on 17 hours of video containing 16,000 motions performed by human surgeons during operations. When put to work, the first layer of the AI system watches video, monitors the surgery and issues plain-language instructions, while the second AI layer turns each instruction into 3D tool motions. In all, the gall bladder surgery requires 17 separate tasks. The robotic system has performed the operation eight times, achieving 100 percent success in all of the tasks. “Current surgical robotic technology has made some procedures less invasive, but risks haven’t really dropped from previous laparoscopic (使用腹腔镜的) surgeries by human surgeons,” says team member Axel Krieger at Johns Hopkins University in Maryland. “This made us look into what is the next generation of robotic systems that can help patients and surgeons.” “The study really highlights the art of the possibility with AI and surgical robotics,” says Danail Stoyanov at University College London. “Incredible advances in computer vision for surgical video with the availability of open robotic platforms for research make it possible to demonstrate surgical automation.” But many challenges remain to make the system practical in clinical use. “While the robot completed the task with 100% success, it had to self-correct six times per case. For example, this could mean a gripper (夹持器) designed to grasp an artery missed its hold on the first try,” Stoyanov said. “There were a lot of instances where it had to self-correct, but this was all fully autonomous,” says Krieger. “It would correctly identify the initial mistake and then fix itself.” The robot also had to ask a human to change one of its surgical instruments for another, meaning some level of human intervention was required. The next step, says Krieger, is to let a robot operate autonomously on a live animal, where breathing and bleeding could complicate things. “But with continued research, we’re confident that we can overcome these obstacles step by step.” 8. What are the two-tier tasks that the AI system is trained to perform? A. Giving instructions and performing motions. B. Monitoring the surgery and issuing commands. C. Analyzing video and choosing surgical tools. D. Imitating human surgeons and separating tasks. 9. What breakthrough does the new robot achieve over traditional laparoscopic surgeries? A. Minimal invasiveness with no danger. B. Near autonomy with high success rate. C. Low risks in complex surgical tasks. D. Faster self - correction speed in operations. 10. What may prove challenging in a robot operation according to the last paragraph? A. Adapting to real-time variability. B. Identifying surgical mistakes quicker. C. Reducing human help for crucial tasks. D. Dealing with complicated surgeries. 11. Which of the following title best summarizes the passage? A. The Robotic Surgery: Cutting Medical Risks B. The Robotic Surgery: Great Clinical Progress C. The Robotic Surgery: Simplifying Surgery D. The Robotic Surgery: Success and Ongoing Issues D Today GSN has 450 accounts around the UK, with freezers in universities, coffee shops and gyms. And on top of that, there are online sales of its chicken bites, wraps and ready meals. When Craig Allen began driving around Manchester 12 years ago selling steam-cooked chicken direct to gyms, he was laying the foundations for the frozen food brand. The company began with 10 repurposed freezers, which he branded with the GSN logo. Allen drove to independent gyms in an old supermarket truck to persuade them to host his freezers, and then provided regular deliveries of steamed chicken. Inspired by early success, he expanded into ready meals, focusing on “healthy, tasty, easy” cuisine. Iain Blackburn, a former football teammate of Allen and now operations director, says, “We’ve always been into exercise and keeping fit. It’s where a lot of the product development comes from.” Over the years, they’ve faced multiple challenges. Now, they focus on selling direct to customers online and look at how to improve that side of the business. Blackburn says, “As a small business you want to have a trustworthy process that can help reassure new customers. That’s why we have always worked with PayPal.” They saw a huge return on investment, directly reaching a whole new audience. Part of that success, they say, was down to the confidence instilled in new buyers by the robustness of their online checkout system. A year ago, Blackburn decided to move to PayPal’s complete payments solution, so all payments — whether by cards, Apple Pay or Google Pay — could be managed on one platform. The change has saved GSN so much time. Allen says, “About two days a week that we used to spend reconciling payments.” Allen adds, “The customer service claims and cases area is really useful for us, too. While we have 99.2% success rate for deliveries, that leaves a 0.8% that can get lost or damaged in transit and so on. On those occasions, PayPal has a fair and unbiased way to interact between yourself and the customer to help reach a resolution.” GSN has big plans for the future. There are even plans to expand internationally. 12. What is the development path of GSN in the article? A. It started as an online sales platform. B. It focused on product development. C. It partnered with other shops to distribute its products. D. It began with selling food in gyms and grew into an independent brand. 13. According to Blackburn, what’s the significant inspiration for GSN’s product development? A. The emphasis on exercise and keeping fit. B. The goal of selling to customers directly. C. The desire to create a trustworthy payment progress. D. The challenge of managing payment platforms. 14. How does GSN’s partnership with PayPal reflect its business strategy and values? A. It shows GSN’s priority for local sales over online ones. B. It demonstrates GSN’s focus on traditional payment methods. C. It highlights GSN’s commitment to customer convenience and trust. D. It indicates GSN’s unwillingness to embrace new payment technologies. 15. Why is the customer service claims and cases area really useful for the business? A. It ensures 100% successful delivery. B. It offers a favorable way to cope with delivery problems. C. It allows the business to track all deliveries in real time. D. It provides a platform for customers to complain about the service. 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。 You don’t have to be Leonardo da Vinci or Albert Einstein to think like a genius.

Unsure if I deserved a place in the program, I worried I wasn’t as talented as my peers. When the professor asked about our summer plans, I panicked. I didn’t want to appear ____21____, so without much thought, I blurted out “gardening”. Surprisingly, my professor nodded and mentioned Emily Dickinson loved gardening. Emily Dickinson, a great American poet, studied plants as a child. But I was in my late twenties, lived in a New York apartment and had no gardening ____22____ . A few days later, I was standing in line at a store and spotted some seedlings. I thought I should get something. At least I could say I had ____23____ gardening. Wait, was that a jalapeno (墨西哥胡椒) ? I picked it up. Back home, I called an urban farmer friend. He told me that jalapenos aren’t houseplants and need plenty of sunlight to ____24____. I didn’t have outdoor garden space, but I had a pot, some soil and plenty of ____25____. Over the summer, the plant grew, not enormous but bigger. I was ____26____. Maybe I didn’t have a black thumb after all. I started the second year of my MFA, and then — as sometimes happens in New York — I had to____27____ out of my apartment. I stayed with my friends for a while, and my jalapeno came with me. By the time I found my own apartment, it was almost December and my jalapeno was ____28____: many of its leaves had fallen off. I set it next to a window by the kitchen sink, and hoped for the best. I continued to work hard in school. Then spring came. My jalapeno plant ____29____ back to life. It grew bigger, with new leaves. And it flowered when I ____30____my graduate thesis — a book of poems — in May.

The____36____ (strong) and most consistent benefit appeared when people spent about two to four hours per week helping others. “Everyday acts of support — whether organized or personal — can have lasting cognitive (认知的) impact,” said Sae Hwang Han, an assistant professor ____37____led the study. “What stood out to me was that the cognitive benefits of helping others weren’t just short-term improvements but cumulative (积累的) over time with sustained engagement, and these benefits were evident for both formal volunteering and informal helping. Moderate engagement of just two to four hours was ____38____ (consistent) linked to benefits.” To study these patterns over time, the researchers analyzed data from the national Health and Retirement Study. The dataset includes____39____representative sample of U.S. residents over age 51, with information ____40____ (date) back to 1998. The researchers accounted for other factors that can shape both helping ____41____ (behave) and cognitive health, wealth, physical and mental health, and education. Even after considering those influences, cognitive decline tended to slow when people started helping others and continued to do so. The researchers argue these results strengthen the case for thinking about volunteering, helping, and neighborhood connection as public health issues. This may be especially important later in life, when conditions tied to cognitive decline and harm ____42____ (be) more likely to develop. ____43____ (take) together, these findings suggest helping others may support brain health in more than one way. As societies age and concerns about loneliness grow, the results also support continued efforts to keep people involved in ways that let them contribute, even after cognitive decline has begun. “Many older adults in a low state of health often continue to make valuable contributions to____44____ around them,” Han said, “and they may especially benefit from providing with opportunities_____45_____ (help) .” 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 46. 你在校英语学习论坛上看到一则关于“更喜欢云旅游（Online Travel）还是传统旅游”的英文讨论帖。请写一篇短文跟帖，内容包括： （1）你的看法； （2）你的理由。 注意： （1）写作词数应为80个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第二节（满分25分） 47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 Mary was the art teacher for primary school students. On this particular day, she was guiding them through the process of drawing a scenic landscape. Akila yawned(打哈欠), clearly disinterested - drawing wasn’t her thing. A small group of students gathered around Tina, laughing at her unusual drawing: a sun sporting sunglasses and trees topped with ice cream cones. Mary instructed Tina firmly but with unease, “Draw it the way I showed you.” As the lesson continued, doubt crept into Mary’s mind. Had the joy of creativity been overshadowed by the pressure to fit in? She scanned the room, observing her students’ faces – some concentrated, others uncertain. Akila’s disinterest was clear and Tina’s imaginative drawing had been met with ridicule instead of praise. After class, Mary sat down with Tina, her tone softening, “Why did you draw the sun with sunglasses and the trees with ice creams?” she asked gently. Tina’s eyes sparkled with a touch of rebellion (叛逆)-“I love ice cream, and I thought the sun would look cool with sunglasses. Why do we always have to draw like everyone else?” Mary paused, her thoughts racing. Tina’s drawings weren’t just curious —they were a window into a world where imagination ruled, where rales could be bent into delightful chaos. Was she, by enforcing a rigid style, killing that very creativity? The next morning, Mary walked into the classroom with a renewed sense of purpose. She placed a large sheet of paper in front of the class and announced a new project: they would create a collective(集体的)artwork titled “Our Dream World” with no rules. They were free to use colors, shapes, and patterns however they wished. At first, the students hesitated, unsure of this newfound freedom. Akila leaned back, skeptical of what seemed like another pointless exercise. But Tina, her creativity no longer restricted, eagerly grabbed her crayons and began to draw with abandon. Then, Maya joined in. And then Michael... 注意: 1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 As the students worked, Mary observed them with curiosity. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Mary stood back and surveyed the creation. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026届 第11次适应性训练 高三英语 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 注意：做题时，请先将答案标在试卷上。听力部分结束前，你将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 street where I was standing was full of people, most of them on their way in or out of London’s British Museum. Everything around me cried summer — the tourists wore shorts, T-shirts, skirts — but the sensation I had was of autumn. It wasn’t the date, it was something about the light, which had a different fullness, and that created a different space. I was there to meet Celia Paul. I had been interested in her paintings for a long time, in their distinctive combination of weightlessness and heaviness. I knew from her autobiography that she also worked there, and that only people she had explicitly invited were allowed to set foot inside. I had been invited, but even so I had to wipe the sweat from my palms before pressing the intercom button. A reply came immediately. The kindness in the voice was apparent even through the small, crackly speaker. There was a buzz, I went in and walked up and Celia Paul stood waiting in the hallway inside. When I followed her into the flat, I recognized the floor, worn and dark and made of linoleum, I recognized the plain, white walls, I recognized the window facing the museum, the light that fell through it. And Paul’s face was so familiar that it might have belonged to one of my close friends. Then I saw a painting. The painting seems alive. The chair is not alive, the wall and the floor are not alive. And yet the painting seems just that, alive. This is, I think, because the painting consists of encounters. It emerges brushstroke by brushstroke, in a long-drawn-out moment, continually adjusted. The painting is alive in the sense that it arises out of a process, led and corrected by the artist’s gaze, but also by her ideas, emotions, and expectations, until she considers the painting finished. We see not the chair in itself, as that is for sitting on, but the moment it represents not the world, but our connection to the world. 4. What does the author mean by saying “the sensation I had was of autumn” in Paragraph 1? A. The date was September, so it was already autumn. B. The light had a special quality that felt like autumn. C. The weather was cold and windy, typical of autumn. D. The museum’s white stone walls looked like autumn scenery. 5. We can infer from the text that Celia Paul is ________. A. an open-minded artist who welcomes visitors B. a painter who only creates works for strangers C. a person who values privacy in her life and work D. a friend of the author who often meets in the flat 6. The underlined word “encounters” in Paragraph 4 most probably means________. A. formal meetings B. mutual gazes C. creative ideas D. physical touches 7. What is the main idea of the passage? A. The author’s visit to the British Museum on an autumn day. B. Celia Paul’s unique painting style and artistic achievements. C. The special connection between the author and Celia Paul. D. The author’s experience of meeting Celia Paul and understanding her art. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. B 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者受邀拜访画家Celia Paul，走进其工作室并感悟画作生命力的经历。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Everything around me cried summer — the tourists wore shorts, T-shirts, skirts — but the sensation I had was of autumn. It wasn’t the date, it was something about the light, which had a different fullness, and that created a different space.(周围的一切都透着夏日的气息——游客们穿着短裤、T恤和短裙——可我却感受到了秋日的氛围。并非因为日期，而是光线的缘故，它有着别样的饱满感，营造出了一种与众不同的空间感。)”可知，作者觉得像秋天不是因为日期，而是因为光线有一种特别的质感。故选B。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“I knew from her autobiography that she also worked there, and that only people she had explicitly invited were allowed to set foot inside.(我从她的自传中得知，她也在这里工作，而且只有她明确邀请的人才能进入。)”可知，Celia Paul只允许受邀者进入，说明她很重视隐私。故选C。 【6题详解】 词义猜测题。根据下文“It emerges brushstroke by brushstroke, in a long-drawn-out moment, continually adjusted. The painting is alive in the sense that it arises out of a process, led and corrected by the artist’s gaze, but also by her ideas, emotions, and expectations, until she considers the painting finished.(它在漫长的时光里一笔一笔勾勒而成，不断被调整。说这幅画富有生命力，是因为它诞生于一个持续的过程，在画家的目光，还有她的想法、情感与期许的引领和修正下，直至她认为作品完成。)”可推测，作者认为这幅画是鲜活的，是因为这幅画是在画家无数次的凝视中修改而成。选项B“mutual gazes”意为“相互凝视”，与此相符。故选B。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段“It emerges brushstroke by brushstroke, in a long-drawn-out moment, continually adjusted. The painting is alive in the sense that it arises out of a process, led and corrected by the artist’s gaze, but also by her ideas, emotions, and expectations, until she considers the painting finished. We see not the chair in itself, as that is for sitting on, but the moment it represents not the world, but our connection to the world.(它在漫长的时光里一笔一笔勾勒而成，不断被调整。说这幅画富有生命力，是因为它诞生于一个持续的过程，在画家的目光，还有她的想法、情感与期许的引领和修正下，直至她认为作品完成。我们看到的并非供人坐的椅子本身，而是它所承载的瞬间——不是世界本身，而是我们与世界之间的联结。)”以及全文内容可知，本文主要讲述了作者拜访Celia Paul，并领悟其画作生命力的经历。故选D。 C An AI-powered robot was able to separate a gall bladder (胆囊) from the liver of a dead pig in what researchers claim is the first realistic surgery by a machine with almost no human intervention. The robot is powered by a two-tier AI system trained on 17 hours of video containing 16,000 motions performed by human surgeons during operations. When put to work, the first layer of the AI system watches video, monitors the surgery and issues plain-language instructions, while the second AI layer turns each instruction into 3D tool motions. In all, the gall bladder surgery requires 17 separate tasks. The robotic system has performed the operation eight times, achieving 100 percent success in all of the tasks. “Current surgical robotic technology has made some procedures less invasive, but risks haven’t really dropped from previous laparoscopic (使用腹腔镜的) surgeries by human surgeons,” says team member Axel Krieger at Johns Hopkins University in Maryland. “This made us look into what is the next generation of robotic systems that can help patients and surgeons.” “The study really highlights the art of the possibility with AI and surgical robotics,” says Danail Stoyanov at University College London. “Incredible advances in computer vision for surgical video with the availability of open robotic platforms for research make it possible to demonstrate surgical automation.” But many challenges remain to make the system practical in clinical use. “While the robot completed the task with 100% success, it had to self-correct six times per case. For example, this could mean a gripper (夹持器) designed to grasp an artery missed its hold on the first try,” Stoyanov said. “There were a lot of instances where it had to self-correct, but this was all fully autonomous,” says Krieger. “It would correctly identify the initial mistake and then fix itself.” The robot also had to ask a human to change one of its surgical instruments for another, meaning some level of human intervention was required. The next step, says Krieger, is to let a robot operate autonomously on a live animal, where breathing and bleeding could complicate things. “But with continued research, we’re confident that we can overcome these obstacles step by step.” 8. What are the two-tier tasks that the AI system is trained to perform? A. Giving instructions and performing motions. B. Monitoring the surgery and issuing commands. C. Analyzing video and choosing surgical tools. D. Imitating human surgeons and separating tasks. 9. What breakthrough does the new robot achieve over traditional laparoscopic surgeries? A. Minimal invasiveness with no danger. B. Near autonomy with high success rate. C. Low risks in complex surgical tasks. D. Faster self - correction speed in operations. 10. What may prove challenging in a robot operation according to the last paragraph? A. Adapting to real-time variability. B. Identifying surgical mistakes quicker. C. Reducing human help for crucial tasks. D. Dealing with complicated surgeries. 11. Which of the following title best summarizes the passage? A. The Robotic Surgery: Cutting Medical Risks B. The Robotic Surgery: Great Clinical Progress C. The Robotic Surgery: Simplifying Surgery D. The Robotic Surgery: Success and Ongoing Issues 【答案】8. A 9. B 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了一款AI手术机器人在几乎无人干预下成功完成猪胆囊分离手术，展现了技术突破，同时也指出仍存在诸多挑战。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“When put to work, the first layer of the AI system watches video, monitors the surgery and issues plain-language instructions, while the second AI layer turns each instruction into 3D tool motions.(在工作时，AI系统的第一层观察视频、监控手术并发布通俗语言指令，而第二层AI将每条指令转化为3D器械动作。)”可知，双层AI系统的任务分别是发出指令和执行动作。故选A项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“An AI-powered robot was able to separate a gall bladder (胆囊) from the liver of a dead pig in what researchers claim is the first realistic surgery by a machine with almost no human intervention.(一款人工智能机器人成功分离了死猪的胆囊与肝脏，研究人员称这是首次由机器几乎无需人类干预完成的真实手术。)”和第二段“The robotic system has performed the operation eight times, achieving 100 percent success in all of the tasks.(该机器人系统已完成八次手术，所有任务均实现100%成功。)”可知，相比传统腹腔镜手术，新机器人实现了近乎自主操作且成功率极高的突破。故选B项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The next step, says Krieger, is to let a robot operate autonomously on a live animal, where breathing and bleeding could complicate things.(克里格说，下一步是让机器人在活体动物身上自主手术，呼吸和出血会使情况变得复杂。)”可知，机器人在手术中适应活体的实时变化是一大挑战。故选A项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，特别是第一段“An AI-powered robot was able to separate a gall bladder (胆囊) from the liver of a dead pig in what researchers claim is the first realistic surgery by a machine with almost no human intervention.(一台人工智能机器人成功将死猪的胆囊从肝脏上分离下来，研究人员称，这是首次由机器在几乎无人干预的情况下完成的真实手术操作。)”可知，全文既讲述了机器人成功完成无人干预手术的成果，也说明了其仍需人工协助、存在自我修正等待解决问题。所以D项“The Robotic Surgery: Success and Ongoing Issues(机器人手术：成就与现存问题)”可以概括本文大意。故选D项。 D Today GSN has 450 accounts around the UK, with freezers in universities, coffee shops and gyms. And on top of that, there are online sales of its chicken bites, wraps and ready meals. When Craig Allen began driving around Manchester 12 years ago selling steam-cooked chicken direct to gyms, he was laying the foundations for the frozen food brand. The company began with 10 repurposed freezers, which he branded with the GSN logo. Allen drove to independent gyms in an old supermarket truck to persuade them to host his freezers, and then provided regular deliveries of steamed chicken. Inspired by early success, he expanded into ready meals, focusing on “healthy, tasty, easy” cuisine. Iain Blackburn, a former football teammate of Allen and now operations director, says, “We’ve always been into exercise and keeping fit. It’s where a lot of the product development comes from.” Over the years, they’ve faced multiple challenges. Now, they focus on selling direct to customers online and look at how to improve that side of the business. Blackburn says, “As a small business you want to have a trustworthy process that can help reassure new customers. That’s why we have always worked with PayPal.” They saw a huge return on investment, directly reaching a whole new audience. Part of that success, they say, was down to the confidence instilled in new buyers by the robustness of their online checkout system. A year ago, Blackburn decided to move to PayPal’s complete payments solution, so all payments — whether by cards, Apple Pay or Google Pay — could be managed on one platform. The change has saved GSN so much time. Allen says, “About two days a week that we used to spend reconciling payments.” Allen adds, “The customer service claims and cases area is really useful for us, too. While we have 99.2% success rate for deliveries, that leaves a 0.8% that can get lost or damaged in transit and so on. On those occasions, PayPal has a fair and unbiased way to interact between yourself and the customer to help reach a resolution.” GSN has big plans for the future. There are even plans to expand internationally. 12. What is the development path of GSN in the article? A. It started as an online sales platform. B. It focused on product development. C. It partnered with other shops to distribute its products. D. It began with selling food in gyms and grew into an independent brand. 13. According to Blackburn, what’s the significant inspiration for GSN’s product development? A. The emphasis on exercise and keeping fit. B. The goal of selling to customers directly. C. The desire to create a trustworthy payment progress. D. The challenge of managing payment platforms. 14. How does GSN’s partnership with PayPal reflect its business strategy and values? A. It shows GSN’s priority for local sales over online ones. B. It demonstrates GSN’s focus on traditional payment methods. C. It highlights GSN’s commitment to customer convenience and trust. D. It indicates GSN’s unwillingness to embrace new payment technologies. 15. Why is the customer service claims and cases area really useful for the business? A. It ensures 100% successful delivery. B. It offers a favorable way to cope with delivery problems. C. It allows the business to track all deliveries in real time. D. It provides a platform for customers to complain about the service. 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文讲述了冷冻食品品牌GSN从健身房起步发展壮大，并借助PayPal优化支付服务，未来还计划进军国际市场的发展历程。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“When Craig Allen began driving around Manchester 12 years ago selling steam-cooked chicken direct to gyms, he was laying the foundations for the frozen food brand.(12年前，克雷格・艾伦开车在曼彻斯特转悠，直接向健身房售卖蒸鸡肉时，他就在为这个冷冻食品品牌打下基础。)”可知，GSN从在健身房售卖食品起步，发展成为一个独立品牌。故选D项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“We’ve always been into exercise and keeping fit.

The____36____ (strong) and most consistent benefit appeared when people spent about two to four hours per week helping others. “Everyday acts of support — whether organized or personal — can have lasting cognitive (认知的) impact,” said Sae Hwang Han, an assistant professor ____37____led the study. “What stood out to me was that the cognitive benefits of helping others weren’t just short-term improvements but cumulative (积累的) over time with sustained engagement, and these benefits were evident for both formal volunteering and informal helping. Moderate engagement of just two to four hours was ____38____ (consistent) linked to benefits.” To study these patterns over time, the researchers analyzed data from the national Health and Retirement Study. The dataset includes____39____representative sample of U.S. residents over age 51, with information ____40____ (date) back to 1998. The researchers accounted for other factors that can shape both helping ____41____ (behave) and cognitive health, wealth, physical and mental health, and education. Even after considering those influences, cognitive decline tended to slow when people started helping others and continued to do so. The researchers argue these results strengthen the case for thinking about volunteering, helping, and neighborhood connection as public health issues. This may be especially important later in life, when conditions tied to cognitive decline and harm ____42____ (be) more likely to develop. ____43____ (take) together, these findings suggest helping others may support brain health in more than one way. As societies age and concerns about loneliness grow, the results also support continued efforts to keep people involved in ways that let them contribute, even after cognitive decline has begun. “Many older adults in a low state of health often continue to make valuable contributions to____44____ around them,” Han said, “and they may especially benefit from providing with opportunities_____45_____ (help) .” 【答案】36. strongest 37. who##that 38. consistently 39. a 40. dating 41. behavior## behaviors##behaviour## behaviours 42. are 43.

Secondly, the personal growth gained from overcoming travel challenges and exploring new environments is irreplaceable. Finally, face-to-face experiences enable a deeper understanding of the world while online travel focuses mostly on scenic spots.

On this particular day, she was guiding them through the process of drawing a scenic landscape. Akila yawned(打哈欠), clearly disinterested - drawing wasn’t her thing. A small group of students gathered around Tina, laughing at her unusual drawing: a sun sporting sunglasses and trees topped with ice cream cones. Mary instructed Tina firmly but with unease, “Draw it the way I showed you.” As the lesson continued, doubt crept into Mary’s mind. Had the joy of creativity been overshadowed by the pressure to fit in? She scanned the room, observing her students’ faces – some concentrated, others uncertain. Akila’s disinterest was clear and Tina’s imaginative drawing had been met with ridicule instead of praise. After class, Mary sat down with Tina, her tone softening, “Why did you draw the sun with sunglasses and the trees with ice creams?” she asked gently. Tina’s eyes sparkled with a touch of rebellion (叛逆)-“I love ice cream, and I thought the sun would look cool with sunglasses. Why do we always have to draw like everyone else?” Mary paused, her thoughts racing. Tina’s drawings weren’t just curious —they were a window into a world where imagination ruled, where rales could be bent into delightful chaos. Was she, by enforcing a rigid style, killing that very creativity? The next morning, Mary walked into the classroom with a renewed sense of purpose. She placed a large sheet of paper in front of the class and announced a new project: they would create a collective(集体的)artwork titled “Our Dream World” with no rules. They were free to use colors, shapes, and patterns however they wished. At first, the students hesitated, unsure of this newfound freedom. Akila leaned back, skeptical of what seemed like another pointless exercise. But Tina, her creativity no longer restricted, eagerly grabbed her crayons and began to draw with abandon. Then, Maya joined in. And then Michael... 注意: 1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 As the students worked, Mary observed them with curiosity. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Mary stood back and surveyed the creation. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Paragraph 1: As the students worked. Mary observed them with curiosity. She noticed how Akila, initially disinterested, had quietly chosen vibrant colors and was now blending them together to create a swirling sky filled with fantastical creatures that flew over a stone castle. Meanwhile, Tina was enthusiastically adding playful details to her section of the paper-a whimsical garden where flowers wore hats and creatures rested on the ice cream-topped trees. Mary felt a wave of relief washed over her. The room was alive with chatter and laughter, as Akila and Tina frequently exchanged ideas and inspired one another. Akila even leaned over to admire Tina’s ice cream trees and said, “That is mind-blowing!” It was wonderful to see them cooperate, their initial differences melting away in the warmth of shared creativity. Paragraph 2: Mary stood back and surveyed the creation. The enomious canvas had transformed into a magnificent portrayal of each student’s imagination, forming a breathtaking landscape that reflected their individuality yet spoke to their collective spirit. Mary felt a sense of pride swell within her; she realized that in letting go of rigid structures, her students gave their painting an unrealistic but dream-like quality. Akila, Tina, and the rest of the class had not only embraced their own creative paths but had also nurtured each other’s ideas. They were thrilled, “It was the best painting ever! We should definitely hang it on the wall!” Inspired by the moment, Mary decided to host an exhibition of their dream world, inviting parents and other classes to admire the beauty of imagination unleashed in her classroom. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述Mary是小学美术老师，一次课上，她发现Akila对画画不感兴趣，而Tina画得天马行空而遭到同学们的嘲笑，最后Mary意识到她限制了孩子们的想象力，所以第二天，Mary宣布将创作一个名为“我们的梦想世界”的集体艺术品，没有任何规则。孩子们可以随意使用颜色、形状和图案。一个接一个，孩子们开始作画了... 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“当学生们画画时，Mary好奇地看着他们”可以预测续写这段主要内容： 孩子们相互帮助完成画作。 ②由第二段首句内容“Mary退后一步，打量着创造的画作。”可以预测续写这段主要内容：Mary对他们的创造力感到惊讶，决定举办画展并邀请他们家长参与。 2.续写线索： Mary看孩子们作画——孩子们对作画表现出兴趣——相互帮助完成画作—— Mary对他们的创造力感到惊讶——决定举办画展 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①.鼓舞：inspire/motivate/encourage ②.欣赏： admire/appreciate ③.说：say/utter 情绪类 ①.热情地： enthusiastically/passionately ②.高兴的：thrilled/glad/delighted/happy 【点睛】[高分句型1].
