Jasmine Cho, 35, does. A baker, artist, entrepreneur and activist, Cho tries to spread knowledge about social justice issues and diversity through the delicious medium of cookies. It was in high school that she discovered her love of baking. At a sleepover a friend taught her how to make a dessert, “sort of demystifying baking and that whole process”. Later, Cho realized her second passion: learning more about her Asian, American culture. An elective in college that taught Asian-American immigrant experiences brought an emotional moment for her. “So many emotions came up that I just couldn’t articulate. It was like this mix of anger, relief, empowerment, sadness...” Cho said. Cho realized she could combine these two passions to educate others about influential Asian-American people and showcase matters that were important to her. With her online bakery, she designed cookie portraits about people she admired and posted the images on Instagram. “I don’t think I ever really knew how to communicate these stories until I found cookies,” Cho said. “Cookies are just so disarming. Who doesn’t like cookies?” One cookie that Cho has identified with deeply is one she made of George Helm, a Hawaiian activist in the 1970s. “It’s insane the amount of injustice that the native Hawaiian population has faced as well through the whole annexation (吞并) of the kingdom. There were so many horrific stories that I heard about nuclear testing and the fallout (核爆炸后的沉降物) impacting native Hawaiian populations in all of this,” Cho said, “George Helm was one of those activists who really represented the spirituality of the native Hawaiians and the connection to their land, to nature.” Among her amazing cookie art are other political figures such as Larry Itliong, a Filipino-American labor organizer, and pop culture figures such as Keanu Reeves, a Canadian actor. Cho hopes her cookie art continues to inspire people to be creative and think positively. “Instead of trying to think of something new and original, just look inward and see, maybe there’s already a passion or a love that you have,” Cho said. “Use that for something that will serve the world in a better way.” 41．What inspired Cho to take an interest in Asian-American culture? A．One of her sleepover experiences. B．One elective she took at college. C．The process of learning baking from her friend. D．A book she read about Asian-American immigrant experiences. 42．The underlined word “articulate” in Paragraph 4 probably mean _________. A．get rid of B．put up with C．express in words D．stay focused 43．What is the author’s purpose in mentioning George Helm in the passage? A．To inform the reader of Helm’s contributions to Hawaii. B．To show what knowledge Cho focuses on with her cookies. C．To introduce the spirituality of native Hawaiians. D．To explain why Cho is interested in political activists. 44．What approach does Cho recommend to make a difference? A．Making use of your passion. B．Turning to political figures for help C．Trying to do something creative and special. D．Asking people around to work along with you. 45．What can best summarize the message contained in the passage? A．Think outside the box to break new ground. B．Spread something original to one’s heart content. C．Hold your horses for a better self. D．Throw yourself into your inner world for a better one. 【答案】41．B 42．C 43．B 44．A 45．D 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了35 岁的 Jasmine Cho是面包师、艺术家、企业家和活动家，她通过饼干这一美味媒介传播社会正义和多元文化知识。 41．细节理解题。根据第四段中“An elective in college that taught Asian-American immigrant experiences brought an emotional moment for her.( 大学里一门教授亚裔美国移民经历的选修课给她带来了一个激动人心的时刻)”可知，Cho 对亚裔美国文化的兴趣源于大学的一门选修课。故选B项。 42．词义猜测题。根据第四段中““So many emotions came up that I just couldn’t... It was like this mix of anger, relief, empowerment, sadness...” Cho said.( 太多的情绪涌上心头，我无法……。这是一种愤怒、解脱、赋权、悲伤的混合体……” Cho说)”结合语境可知，Cho在学习亚裔移民经历时产生了复杂情绪，却无法“用语言表达”（articulate）。选项 C“express in words(用语言表达)”符合文意。故选C项。 43．推理判断题。根据第五段中“With her online bakery, she designed cookie portraits about people she admired and posted the images on Instagram. “I don’t think I ever really knew how to communicate these stories until I found cookies,” Cho said. “Cookies are just so disarming. Who doesn’t like cookies?” One cookie that Cho has identified with deeply is one she made of George Helm, a Hawaiian activist in the 1970s.( 在她的网上面包店，她设计了她崇拜的人的饼干肖像，并将这些照片发布在Instagram上。“在我发现饼干之前，我一直不知道如何传达这些故事，”Cho说。“饼干真的很让人放松。谁不喜欢饼干？”有一种饼干让Cho产生了深刻的共鸣，那就是她在20世纪70年代为夏威夷活动家乔治·赫尔姆（George Helm）制作的饼干)”可推知，作者在文中提到乔治·赫尔姆的目的是用她的饼干来展示Cho专注于什么知识。故选B项。 44．推理判断题。根据最后一段中““Instead of trying to think of something new and original, just look inward and see, maybe there’s already a passion or a love that you have,” Cho said.( “不要试图去想一些新的和原创的东西，只要向内看，看看，也许你已经有了一种激情或爱，”Cho说)”可推知，Cho建议利用自身热情（passion）带来改变。故选A项。 45．主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及最后一段““Instead of trying to think of something new and original, just look inward and see, maybe there’s already a passion or a love that you have,” Cho said. “Use that for something that will serve the world in a better way.”(“不要试图去想一些新的和原创的东西，只要向内看，看看，也许你已经有了一种激情或爱，”Cho说。“用它来做一些能更好地为世界服务的事情。”)”可知，全文围绕Cho将内心热爱（烘焙与文化）结合，通过饼干艺术影响世界展开。D 选项“Throw yourself into your inner world for a better one”（投身内心热爱，创造更好世界）概括了“从内心热情出发，服务世界”的主旨。故选D项。 C In today’s digital age, where a vast ocean of information is just a click away, the question arises: can one learn too much? Given that no individual can grasp the entirety of human knowledge. However, there exists a phenomenon where excessive learning can lead to inaction, a state of being overwhelmed by too much information. Consider a scenario where you’re eager to achieve a particular goal. You begin by conducting extensive research, diving deep into the subject. As you absorb more information, it paradoxically (矛盾地) feels like your understanding diminishes. Each new concept or strategy reveals further layers, making the goal seem more complex and out of reach. This situation is a common trap: the endless pursuit of more information. Although gaining comprehensive knowledge is valuable, that is to say there’s nothing wrong with learning a lot, issues arise when this pursuit obstructs practical application. If learning continuously prevents you from starting, you’ll find yourself stuck, unable to achieve your desired outcomes. An alternative and more effective approach to achieving goals is to strike a balance between learning and doing. Gather essential information, then transition into action swiftly, even if you feel somewhat unprepared. This is often the best way to learn, as hands-on experience provides insights that theoretical knowledge alone cannot. The comparison with a baby learning to walk is a good example here. A baby doesn’t learn to walk by sitting and analyzing the process. Instead, it learns by attempting to walk, falling, and then understanding from each fall what works and what doesn’t. Through repeated effort, walking is eventually mastered. This method is applicable to goal achievement too. By engaging in action, learning from the outcomes, and adjusting accordingly, you gradually move closer to your goals. In summary, while the pursuit of knowledge is valuable, it’s crucial not to let it become a barrier to action. Learning should be a stepping stone to doing, not an end in itself. It’s through the interplay of gathering knowledge and applying it that we can truly progress towards our aspirations. This balanced approach is key to overcoming the paralysis of overlearning and actively moving towards realizing your ambitions. 46．What problem does the digital age present in learning? A．Too much information. B．Learning to inaction. C．Online distractions. D．Technical issues. 47．What stops people from achieving the goal? A．The distraction caused by unrelated tasks. B．The inability to find relevant information. C．The confusion caused by the information. D．The desire to learn basic concept or strategy. 48．Why is practical experience important in the learning process? A．It replaces continuous learning. B．It is irrelevant in gaining knowledge. C．It holds back theoretical understanding. D．It offers a comprehensive understanding. 49．The example “baby learning to walk” mentioned in Paragraph 5 is used to ________. A．compare different learning styles B．show the importance of making mistakes C．emphasize the need for parental guidance D．explain learning through action and experience 50．What makes the best title for the passage? A．The Paradox of Information Overload B．The Harmony of Learning and Doing C．The Pursuit of Balanced Knowledge D．The Process of Learning to Walk 【答案】46．A 47．C 48．D 49．D 50．B 【导语】本文为一篇议论文。在数字时代，过量的信息会造成学习停滞的问题，因此，在学习过程中，实践经验能帮助我们更全面的理解学习的知识，从而实现目标。 46．细节理解题。根据文章第一段“In today’s digital age, where a vast ocean of information is just a click away, the question arises: can one learn too much? Given that no individual can grasp the entirety of human knowledge. However, there exists a phenomenon where excessive learning can lead to inaction, a state of being overwhelmed by too much information.(在今天的数字时代，海量的信息只需点击一下，问题就来了：一个人会不会学得太多？因为没有人能掌握人类的全部知识。然而，有一种现象是，过度学习可能导致无所作为，一种被太多信息淹没的状态)”可知，数字时代给学习提供了太多的信息。故选A项。 47．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“You begin by conducting extensive research, diving deep into the subject. As you absorb more information, it paradoxically feels like your understanding diminishes. Each new concept or strategy reveals further layers, making the goal seem more complex and out of reach.(你首先要进行广泛的研究，深入研究这个主题。当你吸收的信息越多，你的理解力就越差。每一个新的概念或策略都揭示出更深的层次，使目标看起来更加复杂和遥不可及)”可知，过多的信息会让理解变得更加复杂和遥不可及，即使理解变得更混乱。故选C项。 48．细节理解题。根据文章倒数第三段“An alternative and more effective approach to achieving goals is to strike a balance between learning and doing. Gather essential information, then transition into action swiftly, even if you feel somewhat unprepared. This is often the best way to learn, as hands-on experience provides insights that theoretical knowledge alone cannot.(实现目标的另一种更有效的方法是在学习和实践之间取得平衡。收集必要的信息，然后迅速采取行动，即使你觉得有些措手不及。这通常是最好的学习方式，因为实践经验提供了理论知识无法提供的见解)”可知，在学习过程中，实际经验是重要的，因为它可以通过实践帮助理解信息，提供一个全面的理解。故选D项。 49．推理判断题。根据倒数第三段“An alternative and more effective approach to achieving goals is to strike a balance between learning and doing. Gather essential information, then transition into action swiftly, even if you feel somewhat unprepared. This is often the best way to learn, as hands-on experience provides insights that theoretical knowledge alone cannot.(实现目标的另一种更有效的方法是在学习和实践之间取得平衡。收集必要的信息，然后迅速采取行动，即使你觉得有些措手不及。这通常是最好的学习方式，因为实践经验提供了理论知识无法提供的见解)”和倒数第二段“A baby doesn’t learn to walk by sitting and analyzing the process. Instead, it learns by attempting to walk, falling, and then understanding from each fall what works and what doesn’t. Through repeated effort, walking is eventually mastered. This method is applicable to goal achievement too. By engaging in action, learning from the outcomes, and adjusting accordingly, you gradually move closer to your goals.(婴儿不是通过坐着和分析走路的过程来学习走路的。相反，它通过尝试走路和摔倒来学习，然后从每次跌倒中了解什么有用，什么没用。通过反复的努力，最终学会了走路。这种方法也适用于目标实现。通过参与行动，从结果中学习，并做出相应的调整，你会逐渐接近你的目标)”可知，通过“婴儿学习走路”的例子可以解释通过行动和经验来学习这个观点。故选D项。 50．主旨大意题。根据文章全文，尤其是最后一段“In summary, while the pursuit of knowledge is valuable, it’s crucial not to let it become a barrier to action. Learning should be a stepping stone to doing, not an end in itself. It’s through the interplay of gathering knowledge and applying it that we can truly progress towards our aspirations.(总之，虽然追求知识是有价值的，但重要的是不要让它成为行动的障碍。学习应该是行动的垫脚石，而不是目的本身。只有通过收集知识和应用知识的相互作用，我们才能真正朝着我们的愿望前进)”可知，本文介绍在学习过程中，应将信息和实践相结合，这样能更好地实现目标。B选项“学与做的和谐”与本文主旨相符。故选B项。 D Humour has been an essential part of human behaviour for thousands of years. There is comedy in the texts of Ancient Greece, and medieval writings are filled with jokes. While these same jokes might not be as funny to us now as they were then, their authors understood that humour could not only entertain but also throw new light on sensitive or emotive issues. Closer to modern times, someone who is remembered for his ability to combine humour with more serious messages is American writer Mark Twain. Twain’s particular style of writing is funny and often mischievous. For example, in his classic novel The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, he famously says, “Writing is easy. All you have to do is cross out the wrong words.” But he is equally well known for his witty remarks in his everyday interactions with people. For instance, while on a lecture tour of the United States, Twain went into a barber’s shop to get a haircut and a shave. The barber, not recognising him, asked if he had a ticket to the lecture. When Twain replied that he didn’t, the barber told him that if he wanted to go to the event he would have to stand, as there were no seats left in the theatre. Twain’s response was, “That’s just my luck. I always have to stand when that fellow lectures!” Like Twain, but on the other side of the world, the Chinese writer Wang Zengqi was soon to become famous for his own unique brand of humour. In his essay “On Humour”, Wang used fewer than 600 characters to introduce several humorous examples of famous people, concluding that, “The world is full of amusing things. The thought of them would always make you laugh out loud, even when you’re just sitting by yourself.” Wang believed that humour not only shows one’s personality, but also reflects a person’s attitude towards life. He himself gives the best example to the word “humour”. One day, one of his readers flattered him by saying, “Gaoyou is famous for, first, the poet Qin Shaoyou, and second, Wang Zengqi.” Wang didn’t show any displeasure but only gave a gentle response, “No. Gaoyou salted duck eggs are much more famous than me. I can only stay in the third place.” On another occasion, Wang was invited to give a speech in the US and was scheduled to speak last. He walked to the podium and began, “Unfortunately, none of today’s speakers have last names starting with X, Y, or Z, so I am the last one to speak. Speaking last is difficult because everyone is already very tired. But don’t worry. My speech will be as short as a rabbit’s tail.” Both Twain and Wang understood that humour isn’t just about laughter, but is a way of life and a tool that can be used to illuminate the world. Wang once said, “Life may be like a dream, short and uncertain. But I pour my true feelings into it. The world gave me its love first, so I cannot help but love it back.” Life is never smooth sailing and sometimes can be complicated and cruel. But humour can help us maintain our enthusiasm for life. In fact, some may argue that our need for humour is almost as great as our need for water and air. In the words of Mark Twain, “Humor is mankind’s greatest blessing”. 51．What did the authors of ancient jokes know about humour? A．It could only make people laugh. B．It could explain sensitive issues. C．It was less funny than modern humour. D．It was the most important part of life. 52．Why is Mark Twain mentioned in the passage? A．He wrote the most popular novel in America. B．He was good at combining humour with serious messages. C．He often went to barbershops during his lecture tours. D．He was the first writer to use humour in his works. 53．How did Wang Zengqi respond to the reader’s flattery? A．He felt very pleased and thanked the reader. B．He argued that he was more famous than Qin Shaoyou. C．He joked that he was less famous than Gaoyou salted duck eggs. D．He said he didn’t deserve the praise. 54．What does Wang Zengqi mean by saying his speech would be “as short as a rabbit’s tail”? A．His speech would be very short. B．His speech would be about rabbits. C．His speech would be boring. D．He was nervous about speaking last. 55．What is the main idea of the passage? A．Mark Twain and Wang Zengqi are great writers. B．Humour has a long history in human society. C．Humour is an important part of life and a tool to understand the world. D．Different writers have different styles of humour. 【答案】51．B 52．B 53．C 54．A 55．C 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要探讨了幽默在人类生活中的重要性，通过介绍古代幽默、马克·吐温和汪曾祺的幽默风格，阐述了幽默不仅是娱乐方式，更是理解世界和生活的工具。 51．细节理解题。根据第一段“There is comedy in the texts of Ancient Greece, and medieval writings are filled with jokes. While these same jokes might not be as funny to us now as they were then, their authors understood that humour could not only entertain but also throw new light on sensitive or emotive issues.(古希腊典籍中便记载着喜剧元素，中世纪著作里也充满戏谑之语。尽管这些古老笑话在今日看来或许不如当时那般有趣，但创作者们深谙：幽默不仅能带来欢愉，更能以独特视角阐明敏感议题与情感纠葛)”可知，古代笑话的作者知道幽默可以解释敏感的问题。故选B。 52．细节理解题。根据第二段中“Closer to modern times, someone who is remembered for his ability to combine humour with more serious messages is American writer Mark Twain.(在更接近现代的时候，美国作家马克·吐温因其将幽默与更严肃的信息相结合的能力而被人们铭记)”可知，文章中提到马克·吐温是因为他善于将幽默与严肃的信息结合起来。故选B。 53．细节理解题。根据第四段中“One day, one of his readers flattered him by saying, “Gaoyou is famous for, first, the poet Qin Shaoyou, and second, Wang Zengqi.” Wang didn’t show any displeasure but only gave a gentle response, “No. Gaoyou salted duck eggs are much more famous than me. I can only stay in the third place”.(有一天，一位读者奉承他说：“高邮出名的，一是词人秦少游，二是汪曾祺。”汪曾祺没有丝毫不悦，只是温和地回应道：“不是的。高邮咸鸭蛋比我有名多了，我只能排第三。”)”可知，汪曾祺开玩笑说自己不如高邮咸鸭蛋有名，以此回应读者的奉承。故选C。 54．细节理解题。根据第四段中“He walked to the podium and began, “Unfortunately, none of today’s speakers have last names starting with X, Y, or Z, so I am the last one to speak. Speaking last is difficult because everyone is already very tired. But don’t worry. My speech will be as short as a rabbit’s tail.”(他走向讲台，开口道：“遗憾的是，今天演讲者中没有人姓X、Y或Z，所以我成了最后一个。排在最后演讲很不容易，因为大家都已经非常疲倦了。但请放心，我的发言会像兔子的尾巴一样短。”)”可知，汪曾祺说他的演讲会“像兔子的尾巴一样短”的意思是他的演讲会很短。故选A。 55．主旨大意题。根据最后一段中“Both Twain and Wang understood that humour isn’t just about laughter, but is a way of life and a tool that can be used to illuminate the world.(吐温和汪曾祺都明白，幽默不仅仅是关于笑声，而是一种生活方式，也是一种可以用来照亮世界的工具)”可知，这篇文章的主旨是幽默是生活的重要组成部分，是理解世界的工具。故选C。 第二部分:写作(共两节，满分35分) 第一节：阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，并根据短文内容完成下列各题。 In the 1880s, long before she became her era’s greatest female explorer, eight-year-old Harriet Chalmers traveled through the Sierra Nevada on horseback with her father. When she was 24, Chalmers married Franklin Pierce Adams, and they set off for Latin America, where they covered 40,000 miles on a horse, by boat and on foot. When they returned nearly three years later, she gave a lecture at National Geographic and launched a 30-year career as a contributor. Adams made it her mission to visit every country that was or had been a Spanish colony, and revisited the places where Christopher Columbus had stayed from Europe to the Americas. She traveled around Asia and attended Haile Selassie’s coronation (加冕礼)as the emperor of Ethiopia. During World War I, she was the first female journalist allowed to photograph the French trenches (战壕), where she stayed for months. She wrote 21 articles detailing her experiences for National Geographic, more than any other woman published in the magazine’s first half-century. In those pieces, she criticized the injustices that she’d observed. “Where were the blessings the Europeans claimed they brought to millions of Latin Americans? I could barely find them,” she wrote after a visit to Peru. “What have they not suffered under the control of the Europeans?” Adams had no professional training as a geographer and had never been to college, but her color photo slides and adventurous travel style won her invitations to speak around the world, often from organizations that had never invited a woman in before. She was the third American woman asked to join the Royal Geographical Society in England. However, the New York-based Explorers Club gave her and other outstanding female adventurers the cold shoulder. “Men have always been so afraid that some mere woman might get into their panels of discussion that they don’t even permit women in their clubhouses,” Adams once said, “much less allow them to attend any meetings for discussions that might be significantly helpful.” Several female explorers decided to form their own club. In 1925 the Society of Woman Geographers launched with Adams as president. She served until moving to France in 1933, where she died four years later at 61. 56．What did Adams do during the first three years of her marriage? (no more than 8 words) 57．What was Adams allowed to do during the World War I? (no more than 5 words) 58．What did Adams want to express through her words in Paragraph 3? (no more than 10 words) 59．What does the underlined part mean in Paragraph 4? (no more than 5 words) 60．How would you describe Adams in terms of personalities? Please explain. (no more than 20 words) 【答案】56．She traveled through Latin America with her husband. 57．Photograph the French trenches. 58．She criticized European injustices in Latin America. 59．Treated them coldly/Ignored them. 60．Adventurous and courageous. She explored dangerous places like trenches and challenged gender prejudice. 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了女探险家哈里特·亚当斯一生的探险经历、成就及其对性别偏见的抗争。 56．考查细节理解。根据第一段中“When she was 24, Chalmers married Franklin Pierce Adams, and they set off for Latin America, where they covered 40,000 miles on a horse, by boat and on foot. When they returned nearly three years later, she gave a lecture at National Geographic and launched a 30-year career as a contributor.(24岁时，查默斯嫁给了富兰克林·皮尔斯·亚当斯，他们出发前往拉丁美洲，在那里他们骑马、乘船和步行旅行了4万英里。当他们近三年后回来时，她在《国家地理》杂志上发表了一场演讲，并开始了30年的撰稿人生涯)”可知，亚当斯在结婚后的前三年她与丈夫游历了拉丁美洲。故答案为She traveled through Latin America with her husband. 57．考查细节理解。根据第二段中“During World War I, she was the first female journalist allowed to photograph the French trenches (战壕), where she stayed for months.(在第一次世界大战期间，她是第一位被允许拍摄法国战壕的女性记者，她在战壕里待了好几个月)”可知，在第一次世界大战期间，亚当斯被允许拍摄法国战壕。故答案为Photograph the French trenches. 58．考查推理判断。根据第三段中“Where were the blessings the Europeans claimed they brought to millions of Latin Americans? I could barely find them,” she wrote after a visit to Peru. “What have they not suffered under the control of the Europeans?(“欧洲人声称他们给数百万拉丁美洲人带来的福祉在哪里？我几乎找不到，”她在访问秘鲁后写道。“在欧洲人的控制下，他们没有遭受过什么苦难吗？”)”可知，亚当斯在第三段中通过她的话想表达的是批评欧洲在拉丁美洲的不公行为。故答案为She criticized European injustices in Latin America. 59．考查词句猜测。根据第四段中“Adams had no professional training as a geographer and had never been to college, but her color photo slides and adventurous travel style won her invitations to speak around the world, often from organizations that had never invited a woman in before. She was the third American woman asked to join the Royal Geographical Society in England. However, the New York-based Explorers Club gave her and other outstanding female adventurers the cold shoulder.(亚当斯没有接受过地理学家的专业训练，也从未上过大学，但她的彩色幻灯片和富有冒险精神的旅行风格为她赢得了全球演讲的邀请，而这些邀请往往来自此前从未邀请过女性的机构。她是第三位被英国皇家地理学会接纳的美国女性。然而，总部位于纽约的探险家俱乐部却gave her and other outstanding female adventurers the cold shoulder.)”及第五段中““Men have always been so afraid that some mere woman might get into their panels of discussion that they don’t even permit women in their clubhouses,” Adams once said, “much less allow them to attend any meetings for discussions that might be significantly helpful.”(亚当斯曾说：“男人们总是如此害怕某个普通女性可能进入他们的讨论小组，以至于他们甚至不允许女性进入他们的俱乐部会所，更不用说允许她们参加任何可能极有帮助的讨论会议了。”)”可知，纽约的探险家俱乐部对她和其他杰出的女性冒险家采取了冷漠的态度，无视她们，划线部分意为“态度冷淡/无视”。故答案为Treated them coldly/Ignored them. 60．考查推理判断。根据第二段中“During World War I, she was the first female journalist allowed to photograph the French trenches (战壕), where she stayed for months.(在第一次世界大战期间，她是第一位被允许拍摄法国战壕的女性记者，她在战壕里待了好几个月)”及她环球探险经历可知，她敢于深入一战前线战壕摄影，体现冒险精神，根据第三段中“In those pieces, she criticized the injustices that she’d observed.(在那些作品中，她批评了自己所观察到的不公正现象)”及创立女性地理学家协会、批评性别歧视体现出有勇气的。故答案为Adventurous and courageous. She explored dangerous places like trenches and challenged gender prejudice. 第二节：书面表达（满分25分） 61．假如你是李津，你的英国笔友Jack对人工智能AI辅助英语学习很感兴趣，他想了解你在英语学习中使用AI的情况。请你给他回一封邮件，内容包括： (1) 你使用的AI软件（如Deepseek、豆包等）的功能； (2) AI软件对你学习英语的帮助； (3) 你对AI辅助英语学习的看法（例如如何合理使用AI，避免过度依赖）。 注意： (1) 邮件的开头和结尾已经给出，不计入总词数； (2) 可适当加入细节，使内容充实，行文连贯； (3) 词数：不少于100词。 Dear Jack, ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Jin 【答案】One possible version: Dear Jack, Thank you for your email! I’m glad to share with you how I use AI in my English learning journey. I often use AI tools like DeepSeek and Doubao (豆包), which offer a variety of helpful features. For example, they can correct grammar mistakes, explain difficult vocabulary, and even help me improve my writing by offering more natural expressions. Some apps also have speaking practice functions that allow me to chat with an AI assistant, which really helps improve my spoken English. These AI tools have made my English learning more efficient and interesting. I can get instant feedback on my writing and speaking, which saves time compared to waiting for a teacher’s reply. They also provide personalized exercises based on my level and progress. However, I believe it’s important not to rely too much on AI.

He hoped that spending some quality family time in his hometown would help to 16 . As he was telling his grandma some 17 of his travels, he was 18 to hear that she had never seen the sea or mountains.

A baker, artist, entrepreneur and activist, Cho tries to spread knowledge about social justice issues and diversity through the delicious medium of cookies. It was in high school that she discovered her love of baking. At a sleepover a friend taught her how to make a dessert, “sort of demystifying baking and that whole process”. Later, Cho realized her second passion: learning more about her Asian, American culture. An elective in college that taught Asian-American immigrant experiences brought an emotional moment for her. “So many emotions came up that I just couldn’t articulate. It was like this mix of anger, relief, empowerment, sadness...” Cho said. Cho realized she could combine these two passions to educate others about influential Asian-American people and showcase matters that were important to her. With her online bakery, she designed cookie portraits about people she admired and posted the images on Instagram. “I don’t think I ever really knew how to communicate these stories until I found cookies,” Cho said. “Cookies are just so disarming. Who doesn’t like cookies?” One cookie that Cho has identified with deeply is one she made of George Helm, a Hawaiian activist in the 1970s. “It’s insane the amount of injustice that the native Hawaiian population has faced as well through the whole annexation (吞并) of the kingdom. There were so many horrific stories that I heard about nuclear testing and the fallout (核爆炸后的沉降物) impacting native Hawaiian populations in all of this,” Cho said, “George Helm was one of those activists who really represented the spirituality of the native Hawaiians and the connection to their land, to nature.” Among her amazing cookie art are other political figures such as Larry Itliong, a Filipino-American labor organizer, and pop culture figures such as Keanu Reeves, a Canadian actor. Cho hopes her cookie art continues to inspire people to be creative and think positively. “Instead of trying to think of something new and original, just look inward and see, maybe there’s already a passion or a love that you have,” Cho said. “Use that for something that will serve the world in a better way.” 41．What inspired Cho to take an interest in Asian-American culture? A．One of her sleepover experiences. B．One elective she took at college. C．The process of learning baking from her friend. D．A book she read about Asian-American immigrant experiences. 42．The underlined word “articulate” in Paragraph 4 probably mean _________. A．get rid of B．put up with C．express in words D．stay focused 43．What is the author’s purpose in mentioning George Helm in the passage? A．To inform the reader of Helm’s contributions to Hawaii. B．To show what knowledge Cho focuses on with her cookies. C．To introduce the spirituality of native Hawaiians. D．To explain why Cho is interested in political activists. 44．What approach does Cho recommend to make a difference? A．Making use of your passion. B．Turning to political figures for help C．Trying to do something creative and special. D．Asking people around to work along with you. 45．What can best summarize the message contained in the passage? A．Think outside the box to break new ground. B．Spread something original to one’s heart content. C．Hold your horses for a better self. D．Throw yourself into your inner world for a better one. C In today’s digital age, where a vast ocean of information is just a click away, the question arises: can one learn too much? Given that no individual can grasp the entirety of human knowledge. However, there exists a phenomenon where excessive learning can lead to inaction, a state of being overwhelmed by too much information. Consider a scenario where you’re eager to achieve a particular goal. You begin by conducting extensive research, diving deep into the subject. As you absorb more information, it paradoxically (矛盾地) feels like your understanding diminishes. Each new concept or strategy reveals further layers, making the goal seem more complex and out of reach. This situation is a common trap: the endless pursuit of more information. Although gaining comprehensive knowledge is valuable, that is to say there’s nothing wrong with learning a lot, issues arise when this pursuit obstructs practical application. If learning continuously prevents you from starting, you’ll find yourself stuck, unable to achieve your desired outcomes. An alternative and more effective approach to achieving goals is to strike a balance between learning and doing. Gather essential information, then transition into action swiftly, even if you feel somewhat unprepared. This is often the best way to learn, as hands-on experience provides insights that theoretical knowledge alone cannot. The comparison with a baby learning to walk is a good example here. A baby doesn’t learn to walk by sitting and analyzing the process. Instead, it learns by attempting to walk, falling, and then understanding from each fall what works and what doesn’t. Through repeated effort, walking is eventually mastered. This method is applicable to goal achievement too. By engaging in action, learning from the outcomes, and adjusting accordingly, you gradually move closer to your goals. In summary, while the pursuit of knowledge is valuable, it’s crucial not to let it become a barrier to action. Learning should be a stepping stone to doing, not an end in itself. It’s through the interplay of gathering knowledge and applying it that we can truly progress towards our aspirations. This balanced approach is key to overcoming the paralysis of overlearning and actively moving towards realizing your ambitions. 46．What problem does the digital age present in learning? A．Too much information. B．Learning to inaction. C．Online distractions. D．Technical issues. 47．What stops people from achieving the goal? A．The distraction caused by unrelated tasks. B．The inability to find relevant information. C．The confusion caused by the information. D．The desire to learn basic concept or strategy. 48．Why is practical experience important in the learning process? A．It replaces continuous learning. B．It is irrelevant in gaining knowledge. C．It holds back theoretical understanding. D．It offers a comprehensive understanding. 49．The example “baby learning to walk” mentioned in Paragraph 5 is used to ________. A．compare different learning styles B．show the importance of making mistakes C．emphasize the need for parental guidance D．explain learning through action and experience 50．What makes the best title for the passage? A．The Paradox of Information Overload B．The Harmony of Learning and Doing C．The Pursuit of Balanced Knowledge D．The Process of Learning to Walk D Humour has been an essential part of human behaviour for thousands of years. There is comedy in the texts of Ancient Greece, and medieval writings are filled with jokes. While these same jokes might not be as funny to us now as they were then, their authors understood that humour could not only entertain but also throw new light on sensitive or emotive issues. Closer to modern times, someone who is remembered for his ability to combine humour with more serious messages is American writer Mark Twain. Twain’s particular style of writing is funny and often mischievous. For example, in his classic novel The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, he famously says, “Writing is easy. All you have to do is cross out the wrong words.” But he is equally well known for his witty remarks in his everyday interactions with people. For instance, while on a lecture tour of the United States, Twain went into a barber’s shop to get a haircut and a shave. The barber, not recognising him, asked if he had a ticket to the lecture. When Twain replied that he didn’t, the barber told him that if he wanted to go to the event he would have to stand, as there were no seats left in the theatre. Twain’s response was, “That’s just my luck. I always have to stand when that fellow lectures!” Like Twain, but on the other side of the world, the Chinese writer Wang Zengqi was soon to become famous for his own unique brand of humour. In his essay “On Humour”, Wang used fewer than 600 characters to introduce several humorous examples of famous people, concluding that, “The world is full of amusing things. The thought of them would always make you laugh out loud, even when you’re just sitting by yourself.” Wang believed that humour not only shows one’s personality, but also reflects a person’s attitude towards life. He himself gives the best example to the word “humour”. One day, one of his readers flattered him by saying, “Gaoyou is famous for, first, the poet Qin Shaoyou, and second, Wang Zengqi.” Wang didn’t show any displeasure but only gave a gentle response, “No. Gaoyou salted duck eggs are much more famous than me. I can only stay in the third place.” On another occasion, Wang was invited to give a speech in the US and was scheduled to speak last. He walked to the podium and began, “Unfortunately, none of today’s speakers have last names starting with X, Y, or Z, so I am the last one to speak. Speaking last is difficult because everyone is already very tired. But don’t worry. My speech will be as short as a rabbit’s tail.” Both Twain and Wang understood that humour isn’t just about laughter, but is a way of life and a tool that can be used to illuminate the world. Wang once said, “Life may be like a dream, short and uncertain. But I pour my true feelings into it. The world gave me its love first, so I cannot help but love it back.” Life is never smooth sailing and sometimes can be complicated and cruel. But humour can help us maintain our enthusiasm for life. In fact, some may argue that our need for humour is almost as great as our need for water and air. In the words of Mark Twain, “Humor is mankind’s greatest blessing”. 51．What did the authors of ancient jokes know about humour? A．It could only make people laugh. B．It could explain sensitive issues. C．It was less funny than modern humour. D．It was the most important part of life. 52．Why is Mark Twain mentioned in the passage? A．He wrote the most popular novel in America. B．He was good at combining humour with serious messages. C．He often went to barbershops during his lecture tours. D．He was the first writer to use humour in his works. 53．How did Wang Zengqi respond to the reader’s flattery? A．He felt very pleased and thanked the reader. B．He argued that he was more famous than Qin Shaoyou. C．He joked that he was less famous than Gaoyou salted duck eggs. D．He said he didn’t deserve the praise. 54．What does Wang Zengqi mean by saying his speech would be “as short as a rabbit’s tail”? A．His speech would be very short. B．His speech would be about rabbits. C．His speech would be boring. D．He was nervous about speaking last. 55．What is the main idea of the passage? A．Mark Twain and Wang Zengqi are great writers. B．Humour has a long history in human society. C．Humour is an important part of life and a tool to understand the world. D．Different writers have different styles of humour. 第二部分:写作(共两节，满分35分) 第一节：阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，并根据短文内容完成下列各题。 In the 1880s, long before she became her era’s greatest female explorer, eight-year-old Harriet Chalmers traveled through the Sierra Nevada on horseback with her father. When she was 24, Chalmers married Franklin Pierce Adams, and they set off for Latin America, where they covered 40,000 miles on a horse, by boat and on foot. When they returned nearly three years later, she gave a lecture at National Geographic and launched a 30-year career as a contributor. Adams made it her mission to visit every country that was or had been a Spanish colony, and revisited the places where Christopher Columbus had stayed from Europe to the Americas. She traveled around Asia and attended Haile Selassie’s coronation (加冕礼)as the emperor of Ethiopia. During World War I, she was the first female journalist allowed to photograph the French trenches (战壕), where she stayed for months. She wrote 21 articles detailing her experiences for National Geographic, more than any other woman published in the magazine’s first half-century. In those pieces, she criticized the injustices that she’d observed. “Where were the blessings the Europeans claimed they brought to millions of Latin Americans? I could barely find them,” she wrote after a visit to Peru. “What have they not suffered under the control of the Europeans?” Adams had no professional training as a geographer and had never been to college, but her color photo slides and adventurous travel style won her invitations to speak around the world, often from organizations that had never invited a woman in before. She was the third American woman asked to join the Royal Geographical Society in England. However, the New York-based Explorers Club gave her and other outstanding female adventurers the cold shoulder. “Men have always been so afraid that some mere woman might get into their panels of discussion that they don’t even permit women in their clubhouses,” Adams once said, “much less allow them to attend any meetings for discussions that might be significantly helpful.” Several female explorers decided to form their own club. In 1925 the Society of Woman Geographers launched with Adams as president. She served until moving to France in 1933, where she died four years later at 61. 56．What did Adams do during the first three years of her marriage? (no more than 8 words) 57．What was Adams allowed to do during the World War I? (no more than 5 words) 58．What did Adams want to express through her words in Paragraph 3?
