When I was younger,I couldn't wait to escape from Ramsgate,the harbor town where I grew up on the Isle of Thanet.It could feel small:the same faces in the same places,and where a new cafe or gallery was often met with doubt.There was this apparent insistence that life was fine as it was.But for a teenager itching to see more,that lack of curiosity was disheartening. So I left.I headed north for a four-year academic journey from York to Durham.After university, having played at newspapers,I made the move to London to do it for real.But the reality was tough.I struggled to contribute to various dailies before periods on staff at both magazines and newspapers.In my twenties,I threw myself into city life:sampling Mediterranean restaurants,navigating around on the Tube, and staying out late with friends. For a while,it was enough.Then it became too much.In and among the sharing plates,I found myself on an unending rat race of moving faster and needing to earn more-just to keep up.Rents in London were pressing,apartments were tiny,yet the dream of owning one felt like a cruel joke. As I got older,trips back to Thanet opened my eyes to what I had left behind.Mainly,it was the sea. Wide yellow sands and even the touch of salt in the air,ordinary in childhood,suddenly felt appealing.But I also started to miss the beat of small-town life:waving to people on the street,noticing whose garden was overgrown,finding charm even in the pubs I had once dismissed.What's more,where I'd once hurried to leave,others are now rushing to arrive.Artists,creatives,and technologists have been priced out of London and are pouring to Thanet,bringing new ideas and drive.Now,when I head back home,I feel a mixture of pride and mild wonder:the place I once thought I'd outgrown has had a facelift I wasn't expecting. I'll keep returning to Thanet,with eager willingness.Each visit reminds me that places,like people, can grow without losing their essence.I've come to love Thanet as more than just the home I left;it is now the place it continues to become. 24.Why did the author want to leave Ramsgate? 第2页共4页 丰城九中校本资料 A.It offered few job opportunities.

B.It is influenced by public opinions. C.It shifts from rejection to reconnection D.It is shaped by his childhood experience. 27.What can be a suitable title for the text? A.The Sea in Memory B.Four Years Up North C.The Hometown Out of Reach D.A Growing Place,a Growing Me C Are you an open book,your face broadcasting every passing emotion,or more of a"poker face",not showing what you are feeling?Scientists at Nottingham Trent University (NTU)say that wearing your heart on your face could actually give you a significant social advantage. The study,led by Eithne Kavanagh,a research fellow at NTU's School of Social Sciences,involving over 1,300 participants,noticed striking variations in how much people moved their faces during conversations.Importantly,this expressiveness emerged as a stable individual quality.People displayed similar levels of facial expressiveness across different contexts,with different social partners,and even over time periods up to four months. The researchers say that facial expressiveness is linked to personality,with more agreeable individuals displaying more lively faces.Facial expressiveness can also translate into concrete social benefits.In a negotiation (task,more expressive individuals are more likely to secure a larger slice of a reward.The researchers suggest that agreeable,dynamic facial expressions may serve as a tool for building good relationships and smoothing over conflicts.Across the board,the results point to facial expressiveness serving an“affiliative(有亲和力的)function'',or a social glue that develops liking and smoother interactions. Expressiveness is also linked to being seen as more "readable",suggesting that a lively face makes one's intentions and mental states easier for others to interpret.Beyond frequency of facial movements, people who employ facial expressions more strategically to suit social goals,such as looking friendly in a greeting,are also more well-liked. The findings challenge the "poker face"common belief that a still and unemotional appearance is always most advantageous.Instead,they suggest that for most people,allowing one's face to mirror inner states and intentions can invite warmer reactions.As the researchers conclude,Being facially expressive is socially advantageous."So,next time you catch yourself making lines on your forehead,or flashing a smile, know that your face just might be working on your behalf. 28.How does the author introduce the topic in the first paragraph? A.By making a comparison. B.By giving an example. C.By providing a definition. D.By listing statistics. 29.What may facial expressiveness act as in negotiation settings? A.A method to hide personality B.A way to frighten competitors C.A strategy to settle disagreement. D.A tool to show personal qualities. 30.What is a common misunderstanding about"poker face"according to the passage? A.It helps people gain more trust during negotiations. B.It makes a person appear more friendly and approachable. C.It is often a very beneficial way to present oneself. 丰城九中校本资料 D.It is a skill that can be easily learned through practice. 31.What may the author advise based on the findings of the study? A.Always wearing a still face. B.Learning to be an open book. C.Speaking out inner emotions. D.Forcing a smile through tears. D Artificial intelligence (AD)researchers have long dreamed of tools to supercharge science-asking novel questions,designing and running experiments.Recently,large language models (LLMs)have made discoveries that some AI developers claim have inched us closer to that future.But how do you test whether an AI model can truly do science? For answers,researchers turn to benchmarks ()standardized sets of questions or tasks that help measure an AI's efficiency and reliability and compare it against other models.But the complexity of science makes assessing their aptitude especially challenging.As Hao Peng,a computer scientist at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign,puts it:"Models have all this knowledge.Do they know how to use it? Dozens of new science-focused benchmarks have emerged over the past year to answer that question, but scientists have yet to settle on a single best approach.One of the most popular,published in Nature,is Humanity's Last Exam (HLE).It uses 2500 questions drawn from"the frontier of human knowledge"to put LLMs through their paces.One,for example,asks how many types of sensory receptors the human skin contains."We wanted a diverse dataset that only experts who have been working on a field for a long time can answer,"says Long Phan,a research engineer with the HLE's developer. Since the HLE first appeared as a preprint in January 2025,the benchmark has become an important proving ground for LLMs and HLE scores are now a common talking point for AI companies seeking to highlight the capabilities of their products.At the HLE's launch,the leading developer OpenAI of model won the best score at a mere 8.3%.Earlier this month,Google claimed that its latest reasoning model for science,called Gemini 3 Deep Think,had achieved a new record HLE score of 48.4%. But some scientists argue that many of the HLE's questions test for little-known or even useless knowledge,rather than an ability to do meaningful research.A Nature editorial accompanying the HLE's publication also raised this issue:"We think that more scientists should be asking:What would it take to develop an AI benchmark that truly measures expert-level thinking? 32.What does the underlined word"aptitude"in paragraph 2 mean? A.Knowledge. B.Competence C.Speed D.Interest 33.What does Long Phan stress about HLE? A.Its topic diversity. B.Experts'involvement in it. C.The expertise of its dataset. D.Its data-backed popularity. 34.Why does the author mention"a Nature editorial"in the last paragraph? A.To show that HLE is widely accepted by the scientific community. B.To prove that AI companies rely too much on benchmark scores. C.To explain how HLE was developed with the help of experts. D.To present a critical perspective on whether HLE truly measures meaningful research. 35.What is the best title for the passage? A.Can AI Really Think Like a Scientist? B.Are We Asking the Right Questions About AI? C.Is HLE the Right Tool to Test AI? D.Do High Scores Mean Real Progress? 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 第3页共4页 丰城九中校本资料 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 When asked for a reasoning or answer to a question,do you find yourself needing to explain your thoughts at length,going into too much detail to ensure that your points are made?36 You tend to explain something in more detail than required and beyond what is useful. 37 For someone asking a question,an overexplained answer can be quite confusing when a direct and simple response just works.However,for the person answering,they feel worried that the"direct and simple response"doesn't get across enough information. Overexplaining may start from a young age,especially for those who grew up in a house where they felt like they weren't listened to or heard.38 This fear can follow into adulthood and lead to a need to explain everything so that they're not punished again.Overexplaining might have developed as handling strategy and defence mechanism,making it hard to stop,especially when coupled with a fear of rejection or being abandoned. It's hard to stop overexplaining when it's hardwired into your brain.The key is being aware and noticing when you're explaining more than you should.Once you recognize it,you can try to hold back a little.It takes time to learn how to wrestle with the urge to say more.39 One of the hardest things is learning to "just say no".When you're asked to do something you don't really want to do,it can be difficult not to explain in detail.40 In truth,the overexplanation is more to ease your sense of guilt.However,you don't owe anyone an explanation in a decline.It's perfect okay to simply say,“No,but thank you for the offer.” A.In this case you are overexplaining. B.But it gets easier with more practice. C.You feel sony for what you have explained. D.Overexplaining upsets both ends of the conversation. E.They were worried about the environment they grew up in. F.Maybe they even got punished without a chance to explain. G.By overexplaining you intend to save the other person's feelings. 第三部分英语知识运用（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，从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、和D)中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳 选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Glen Edwards became a hero when he rescued a construction worker trapped on the top of a 16-story burning building.

The Maple with its Olympic-size pool and award-winning restaurant was a perfect destination.Located atop a hill overlooking an ocean,it was within walking distance of a nearby town.At the other end of the road was a lighthouse where sightseers could climb the winding staircase to the observation spot This trip promised to be fantastic-until the rain poured down.The more I prayed,the harder it rained. We had to find a shelter to wait for the rain to stop.When we managed to get to The Maple,it was late at night. The door of the indoor pool was locked.And it wouldn't be open the next day,for it needed upgrading that day.I felt tears in my eyes. Bill comforted,"We can have dinner in the restaurant you like."So,we walked to the hotel restaurant, but were greeted by a sign:Closed on Mondays. "Oh,I just studied the introduction to its delicious food!I thought it was open all the time,"I said to Bill.“I'm so sor1y. "Relax,honey,"Bill said,"There must be something open in the nearby town." Soon,Bill and I found an old-fashioned restaurant in the town.There,we enjoyed our dinner while recalling our happy memories.When we considered having some dessert,the flash of a sign caught my attention."Homemade ice cream,"it read."Thirty flavors."We ran to the comner shop,ordered several flavors and ate the whole thing.We felt like carefree teenagers! When we returned to The Maple,Bill said,"Well,things didn't go as expected.But tomorrow morning we can still climb to the top of the lighthouse before we drive back home,I know how much you want to do that” The following morning,as we approached the lighthouse,we saw another sign:CLOSED FOR REPAIRS.The storm must have damaged the lighthouse! 注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 "Look!The beach ahead is still open.We can go there,"I said to Bill cheerfully.
