Where does the speaker work? A. At a TV station. B. At a radio station. C. At a weather station. 14. What made the speaker get into the field? A. A television program. B. His childhood experience. C. Research on weather conditions. 15. What is the basis for a weather-forecasting job? A. Being able to draw patterns. B. Explaining forecasts simply. C. Performing well in science. 16. What did the speaker major in before starting his work? A. Physics. B. Math. C. Business. 【答案】13. A 14. B 15. C 16. C 【解析】 【原文】M: Hi, everyone. I’m a weather forecaster, which means I study what happens in the atmosphere and the weather conditions that occur on Earth. People are always surprised to learn that forecasters aren’t just involved in weather reporting on TV, but they could also work at a radio station, too. I often get asked how I got interested in weather. Believe it or not, as a teenager, I became nervous of thunderstorms, and I’d often check the forecasts to see if any were coming. From there, my interest developed. If you are thinking of going into weather forecasting, there are some important skills you’ll need. You have to be good at science, of course. The essential thing is having the ability to make sense of patterns. You won’t go too far wrong with that. Another useful skill is being able to translate a forecast into something people at home can understand. Most weather experts study physics and math before going on to do a more specialized course in forecasting. My own way in was somewhat different, as I did a business degree before getting into television as a researcher. I moved around quite a lot at the TV station and eventually ended up in the weather department, where I did my training. 听下面一段独白，回答以下小题。【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 17. What is China’s first cartoon? A.

A 【解析】 【原文】M: Hello, everyone. I’d like to talk about Chinese cartoons today. Chinese cartoons started from the period of 1922 to 1949. The Wan brothers produced China’s first animated short in 1926. Titled Studio Scene, it was a 10-minute black and white short with a very simple style. In 1941, China’s first full-length feature animated film Princess Iron Fan was born. The period from 1950 to 1964 was regarded as the Golden Age of Chinese cartoons. Many excellent animated works came up and many new styles were created. The well-known action cartoon Magic Brush won China’s first international award. Another example, Havoc in Heaven, tells the heroic story of the Monkey King, combining classic Chinese culture and cartoon, creating a good memory for many people that lasts until today. Chinese cartoons began their second development stage after 1978. Classic animated films such as Ne Zha and The Three Monks were shown on screen. Their stories were mostly based on traditional Chinese literature and featured a typical Asian style. However, from 1996 to 2014, Chinese cartoons saw a decline compared with the introduction of cartoons from other countries, including Japan... 二、阅读理解（21-35题每题2.5分合计37.5分；36-40题为七选五每题2.5分，合计12.5分，本题合计50分） You can take an assistance dog with you on Lufthansa flights free of charge.

These machines can swim through liquid, sense their surroundings, respond on their own, and operate for months at a time. Powered entirely by light, the robots contain minicomputers that allow them to follow programmed paths, detect local temperature changes, and adjust their movement in response. As is known, fish and other large swimmers move by pushing water backward, generating forward motion. The tiny robots take a very different approach. These robots generate an electrical field that gently pushes charged bits in the surrounding liquid. As those charged bits move, they drag nearby tiny water molecules with them, effectively creating motion in the liquid around the robot. True autonomy requires more than movement. A robot must also be able to sense its environment, make decisions, and power itself. All of those parts must fit onto a chip that is only a small part of a millimeter across. One of the biggest problems was power. “The key challenge for the electronics,” Blaauw, a researcher, says, “is that the solar boards are tiny and produce only 75 nanowatts (纳瓦) of power.” To make the system work, the team designed specialized circuits that operate at extremely low voltages (电压), cutting power consumption by more than 1,000 times. Space was another major limitation. The solar boards take up most of the robot’s surface, leaving very little room for computing hardware. To solve this, the researchers redesigned how the robot’s software works. “We squeezed what would usually require many instructions for movement control into a single, special instruction to reduce the program’s length to fit in the robot’s tiny memory space,” Blaauw explains. Together, these advances produced what the researchers believe is the first sub-millimeter robot capable of real decision-making. “This is really just the first chapter,” says Blaauw. “We’ve shown that you can put a brain, a sensor and a motor into something almost too small to see, and have it survive and work for months. Once you have that foundation, you can layer on all kinds of intelligence and functionality. It opens the door to a whole new future for mini-robots.” 24. What mainly powers the tiny robots? A. Batteries. B. Water flow. C. Solar boards. D. Electric fields. 25. What guarantees the robot’s true autonomy? A. Big memory space. B. Integrated key parts. C. Long program length. D. Single movement step. 26. What was the key challenge for the robots’ electronics? A. Limited memory space. B. High voltage requirements. C. Extremely low power supply. D. Unstable temperature control. 27. What is the main significance of the research according to Blaauw? A. Creating long-lasting micro-batteries. B. Developing new solar power systems. C. Achieving full automation in large robots. D. Enabling intelligence in nearly invisible robots. 【答案】24. C 25. B 26. C 27. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了研究人员制造出的世界上最小的可编程自主微型机器人，阐述了其动力来源、自主性实现方式以及在能源和空间方面面临的挑战和解决方案。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“One of the biggest problems was power. “The key challenge for the electronics,” Blaauw, a researcher, says, “is that the solar boards are tiny and produce only 75 nanowatts (纳瓦) of power.” (最大的问题之一是电力。研究人员Blaauw说：“电子设备的关键挑战在于太阳能电池板非常微小，仅能产生75纳瓦的功率。”)”可知，微型机器人的主要动力来自功率很小的太阳能电池板。故选C项。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“True autonomy requires more than movement. A robot must also be able to sense its environment, make decisions, and power itself. All of those parts must fit onto a chip that is only a small part of a millimeter across. (真正的自主性需要的不仅仅是移动。机器人还必须能够感知环境、做出决策并为自身提供动力。所有这些部件都必须安装在一个直径仅为一毫米几分之一的芯片上)”可知，集成关键部件保证了机器人的真正自主性。故选B项。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中““The key challenge for the electronics,” Blaauw, a researcher, says, “is that the solar boards are tiny and produce only 75 nanowatts (纳瓦) of power.”(研究人员Blaauw说：“电子设备的关键挑战在于太阳能电池板非常微小，仅能产生75纳瓦的功率。”)”可知，机器人电子设备的关键挑战是极低的电力供应。故选C项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中Blaauw的话“We’ve shown that you can put a brain, a sensor and a motor into something almost too small to see, and have it survive and work for months. Once you have that foundation, you can layer on all kinds of intelligence and functionality. It opens the door to a whole new future for mini-robots. (我们已经证明，你可以将大脑、传感器和电机放入几乎小到看不见的物体中，并让它存活和工作数月。一旦有了这个基础，你就可以在此基础上叠加各种智能和功能。这为微型机器人的全新未来打开了大门)”可知，Blaauw认为这项研究的主要意义在于使几乎不可见的微型机器人具备了智能的基础。故选D项。 Harry Potter author JK Rowling has responded to Emma Watson’s recent comments about their rift over transgender rights, stating the actor is “ignorant of how ignorant she is.” This comes after Watson said in a podcast interview that she could still “treasure Jo and the person that I had personal experiences with” despite their differing views. In a lengthy post, Rowling wrote that while Watson and her co-stars have “every right to embrace gender identity ideology, ” she took issue with them feeling an “obligation to critique me and my views in public” due to their former professional association. Watson, along with Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint, has previously publicly disagreed with Rowling’s gender-critical beliefs. In 2020, Watson tweeted that “Trans people are who they say they are,” directly responding to Rowling’s essay about single-sex spaces. Rowling revealed she had “repeatedly declined invitations” to comment on Watson’s views to avoid having her “hounded.” She described receiving a brief note from Watson after the actor’s 2022 Bafta speech, which came at a time when Rowling was receiving peak “death, rape and torture threats.” “Emma had just publicly poured more petrol on the flames, yet thought a one line expression of concern from her would reassure me,” Rowling wrote. She concluded by contrasting their life experiences, stating Watson has “so little experience of real life” being “cushioned by wealth and fame” since youth, whereas Rowling lived in poverty while writing Harry Potter. She said she therefore understands “what the trashing of women’s rights… means to women and girls without her privileges.” Rowling had earlier indicated she was unwilling to forgive Watson and Radcliffe for having “cosied up to a movement intent on eroding women’s hard-won rights.” 28. According to the article, why does Rowling disagree with Watson’s remarks? A. Watson’s wealth and fame have shielded her from real-world struggles. B. Watson lacks the educational background to discuss gender issues. C. Watson has misinterpreted Rowling’s original essay on single-sex spaces. D. Watson has refused private communication with Rowling. 29. Which of the following statements is TRUE based on the text? A. Rowling publicly invited Watson to discuss their differences on a podcast. B. Watson believes trans people should not be accepted as they identify. C. Watson, Radcliffe, and Grint have all publicly supported Rowling’s views. D. Rowling received a note from Watson following her 2022 Bafta speech. 30. What is Rowling’s likely attitude toward future? A. Open and hopeful. B. Indifferent and passive. C. Ambiguous but curious. D. Unwilling and resentful. 31. What is the main purpose of referring to Rowling’s lengthy post in the article? A. Reconcile with her former Harry Potter colleagues. B. Justify her stance and criticize Watson’s public remarks. C. Promote a new book or public statement on gender identity. D. Clarify her support for transgender rights. 【答案】28. A 29. D 30. D 31. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。主要介绍了J.K.罗琳回应艾玛·沃特森跨性别权争议言论并表达不满。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Harry Potter author JK Rowling has responded to Emma Watson’s recent comments about their rift over transgender rights, stating the actor is “ignorant of how ignorant she is.”(《哈利波特》作者JK罗琳回应了艾玛·沃特森最近关于他们在跨性别权利问题上分歧的评论，称这位演员“不知道自己有多无知”)”以及倒数第二段“She concluded by contrasting their life experiences, stating Watson has “so little experience of real life” being “cushioned by wealth and fame” since youth, whereas Rowling lived in poverty while writing Harry Potter. (她最后对比了他们的生活经历，称沃森“对现实生活知之甚少”，从小就“被财富和名望所庇护”，而罗琳在写《哈利波特》时却生活在贫困中。)”可知，罗琳认为沃特森的财富和名望使她远离现实世界的挣扎，所以不认同其言论。故选A项。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“She described receiving a brief note from Watson after the actor’s 2022 Bafta speech, which came at a time when Rowling was receiving peak “death, rape and torture threats.”(她描述了在沃森2022年英国电影学院奖演讲后收到沃森的简短说明，当时罗琳正受到“死亡、强奸和酷刑威胁”的高峰期)”可知，罗琳在2022年英国电影学院奖演讲后收到了沃森的来信。故选D项。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Rowling had earlier indicated she was unwilling to forgive Watson and Radcliffe for having “cosied up to a movement intent on eroding women’s hard-won rights.”(罗琳此前曾表示，她不愿原谅沃特森和拉德克利夫“亲近一个意图侵蚀女性来之不易的权利的运动”。)”可知，罗琳对未来可能持不愿和解且心怀怨恨的态度。故选D项。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“In a lengthy post, Rowling wrote that while Watson and her co-stars have “every right to embrace gender identity ideology, ” she took issue with them feeling an “obligation to critique me and my views in public” due to their former professional association. (在一篇长文中，罗琳写道，虽然沃特森和她的联合主演“完全有权接受性别认同意识形态”，但她对他们因曾经的职业关系而觉得有“义务在公开场合批评我和我的观点”表示不满。)”可知，罗琳写长文是为了证明自己的立场并批评沃特森的公开言论。故选B项。 Universe Is Not a Simulation It’s an idea often explored in science fiction: what if our entire universe is actually a simulation created by an advanced civilization’s supercomputer? New research from UBC Okanagan suggests that this concept isn’t just improbable: it’s mathematically impossible. Dr. Mir Faizal, an Adjunct Professor at UBC Okanagan’s Irving K. Barber Faculty of Science, worked with an international team that includes Drs. Lawrence M. Krauss, Arshid Shabir, and Francesco Marino. Together, they have demonstrated that the deepest layers of reality function in a way that fundamentally no computer could ever replicate (复制). Their study, published in the Journal of Applications in Physics, moves beyond the familiar idea that we might be living in a simulated reality similar to The Matrix. Instead, it presents a more profound conclusion: the universe itself is founded on a kind of understanding that cannot be captured or reproduced by any algorithm (算法). “It has been suggested that the universe could be simulated. If such a simulation were possible, the simulated universe could itself give rise to life, which in turn might create its own simulation. This repeated possibility makes it seem highly unlikely that our universe is the original one, rather than a simulation nested within another simulation,” says Dr. Faizal. “This idea was once thought to lie beyond the reach of scientific inquiry. However, our recent research has demonstrated that it can, in fact, be scientifically addressed.” The research hinges on a fascinating property of reality itself. Modern physics has moved far beyond Newton’s tangible “stuff” bouncing around in space. Einstein’s theory of relativity replaced Newtonian mechanics. Quantum mechanics (量子力学) transformed our understanding again. Today’s cutting-edge theory — modern physics — suggests that even space and time aren’t fundamental. They emerge from something deeper: pure information. This information exists in what physicists call a Platonic realm — a mathematical foundation more real than the physical universe we experience. It’s from this realm that space and time themselves emerge. “Drawing on mathematical theorems related to incompleteness and indefinability, we demonstrate that a fully consistent and complete description of reality cannot be achieved through computation alone,” Dr. Faizal explains. 32. What is the core conclusion of the UBC Okanagan research? A. The universe is a supercomputer simulation B. Cosmic simulation lacks mathematical possibility C. Advanced civilizations can build supercomputers D. Science fiction ideas will be proved someday 33. What can we learn from Dr. Faizal’s words? A. Nested simulation once seemed reasonable. B. Simulated universe definitely has no life. C. Our universe must be the original one. D. Scientific inquiry can solve all problems. 34. It can be inferred from modern physics that _______. A. Newtonian mechanics is completely wrong B. space and time are not basic things C. pure information is less real than physical world D. Einstein’s theory replaced quantum mechanics 35. The research is mainly based on the fact that_______. A. algorithms can capture the deepest reality B. computation alone describes reality fully C. math theorems show limits of computation D. platonic realm is just a physical concept 【答案】32. B 33. A 34. B 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了UBC奥卡纳根分校的研究表明宇宙不可能是超级计算机模拟的产物。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“New research from UBC Okanagan suggests that this concept isn’t just improbable: it’s mathematically impossible.(UBC奥卡纳根分校的新研究表明，这个概念不仅不太可能：它在数学上是不可能的)”可知，宇宙是超级计算机模拟的概念在数学上是不可能的，即宇宙模拟缺乏数学上的可能性。故选B。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段““It has been suggested that the universe could be simulated. If such a simulation were possible, the simulated universe could itself give rise to life, which in turn might create its own simulation. This repeated possibility makes it seem highly unlikely that our universe is the original one, rather than a simulation nested within another simulation,” says Dr. Faizal. “This idea was once thought to lie beyond the reach of scientific inquiry. However, our recent research has demonstrated that it can, in fact, be scientifically addressed.”(“有人提出，宇宙可能是被模拟出来的。如果这种模拟是可能的，那么被模拟的宇宙本身可能会产生生命，而生命反过来又可能创造出自己的模拟。这种重复的可能性使得我们的宇宙极不可能是嵌套在另一个模拟中的原始宇宙，而非原始宇宙本身，”法伊扎尔博士说道。“这一观点曾被认为超出了科学探究的范围。然而，我们最近的研究表明，它实际上可以通过科学方法得到解答。”)”可知，嵌套模拟的想法曾经被认为超出了科学探究的范围，即，曾经看起来是合理的。故选A。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第三段“Today’s cutting-edge theory — modern physics — suggests that even space and time aren’t fundamental. They emerge from something deeper: pure information.(今天的尖端理论——现代物理学——表明，即使是空间和时间也不是基本的。它们是从更深层次的东西中产生的：纯信息)”可知，现代物理学认为空间和时间不是基本的，它们是从更深层次的东西中产生的。故选B。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Drawing on mathematical theorems related to incompleteness and indefinability, we demonstrate that a fully consistent and complete description of reality cannot be achieved through computation alone,” Dr. Faizal explains.(费扎尔博士解释说：“利用与不完整性和不可定义性相关的数学定理，我们证明了仅仅通过计算无法实现对现实的完全一致和完整的描述。”)可知，该研究主要基于数学定理表明计算的局限性。故选C。 Why struggle with an essay when AI can generate one on your behalf in seconds? Why personally respond to an email when AI can instantly produce automatic replies filled with all the typical greetings and talking-points? ____36____ Nevertheless, the ease is not necessarily a good thing. Writing still can’t be replaced even in the AI-driven era. Writing serves as a fundamental cognitive (认知的) exercise through which we realize what we truly understand, acknowledge the limits of our knowledge, and develop structured reasoning. More crucially, it is precisely by the very act of writing that we individuals ultimately make new sense of the world around us and arrive at a deeper understanding of who we are. ____37____ Paul Graham, a well-known computer scientist, once observed, “Good writers do not simply think and then record thoughts casually. ____38____” Writing helps us generate ideas we have never had before. Another critical but often overlooked function of writing is the compression (凝练) of ideas. ____39____ When done poorly, this process loses precious insights. When done well, it generates the insights and removes the unnecessary parts. Compression requires thinking, which is one reason why writing is so difficult. AI can write for us, but it won’t help us learn to think or understand a problem with deep fluency. And we need deep fluency to solve hard problems. A world of common thinking available on demand will encourage people to outsource their thinking and reward people who don’t. ____40____ Original thinking will only become more valuable in the future. A. It bridges the gap between ideas. B. Many people depend heavily on AI. C. AI has made writing surprisingly effortless. D. They always uncover insights in the act of writing. E. Those who can think and write independently will stand out. F. This journey of self-discovery is in essence a vital form of learning. G. Writing requires us to keep to a point and organize our ideas logically. 【答案】36. C 37. F 38. D 39. G 40. E 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章探讨了AI在写作方面的便捷性及其局限性，指出写作对于认知发展、思想生成和观点凝练具有不可替代的作用，并强调独立思考与写作能力在未来将更具价值。 【36题详解】 上文“Why struggle with an essay when AI can generate one on your behalf in seconds? Why personally respond to an email when AI can instantly produce automatic replies filled with all the typical greetings and talking-points? (当AI能在几秒钟内为你生成一篇文章时，为什么还要费力去写？当AI能立即生成充满典型问候和话题点的自动回复时，为什么还要亲自回复邮件？)”以反问句的形式突出了AI写作的高效便捷，C选项“AI has made writing surprisingly effortless.

(写作要求我们紧扣要点并逻辑清晰地组织观点)”承接上文，具体解释了“凝练”这一功能在实际写作中是如何实现的——通过聚焦核心和逻辑组织；下文“When done poorly, this process loses precious insights. When done well, it generates the insights and removes the unnecessary parts. (如果做得不好，这个过程就会丢失宝贵的洞见；如果做得好，它就能产生洞见并去除不必要的部分)”中的“this process”指代G选项中“keep to a point and organize our ideas logically”这一过程，上下文逻辑一致。故选G项。 【40题详解】 上文“A world of common thinking available on demand will encourage people to outsource their thinking and reward people who don’t.

I was the girl who finished her laps last in gym class, the girl who was breathless after two flights of stairs, and the girl who complained of pain after a two-minute jog. Pretty sad, really. But a few years ago, I changed my tune. I was walking with a group of friends in the Race for the Cure, a race to raise money for the fight against breast cancer, when one lady caught my eye. She was one of the weakest looking women I'd ever seen. She must have been close to seventy years old, wearing a hat to cover her bald head and a T-shirt with the word “Survivor”. She was so small that it seemed as if a swift breeze could tip her over. But, she was running. And she was passing me and my group of twenty-something friends. I couldn't stop staring at her. She ran slowly, but determinedly — as if each step pushed her cancer further into her past. She was practically walking on her cancer every time her feet touched the ground. Then, I looked at my friends. Here we were, in the best time of our lives, and this seventy-year-old cancer survivor was kicking our butts! Right at that moment, I swore that in the nextRace for the Cure, I'd be running along with her. A week later, I found myself at the gym. I got on and started to jog. Three minutes after I started, my face was bright red. I was sweating and felt like my lungs were going to burst. I had to slow down to walk. I thought about the woman at the race. She made it look so easy. I kept it up. I was able to go a little longer each time. Three and a half minutes. Four minutes. Five. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式作答。 A year later, I was at the Race for the Cure again. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When I was giving up, I saw the woman from the year before. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 A year later, I was at the Race for the Cure again. This time my legs carried not just the weight of my body, but the memory of every early morning and aching evening I had spent pushing myself further. When the race started, I concentrated on the simple motion: the lift of a knee, the push of a foot and the swing of an arm. For a fleeting moment, lost in the rhythm, I could almost believe I’d be running along with her. But the illusion was fragile. By the second mile, my legs felt like rubber, screaming with familiar exhaustion. By the third mile, my breath came in gasps and a voice in my head screamed at me to stop. When I was giving up, I saw the woman from the year before. The morning sun glinted off her “Survivor” shirt, which shone like a quiet beacon. She wasn’t looking at the runners around her, her gaze fixed on the road ahead, steady and untiring. Seeing her, a fresh wave of determination washed over me. The burn in my lungs and the ache in my legs didn’t vanish, but they no longer mattered. This time, I wasn’t just running a race. I was running toward the person I had sworn to become, following in the footsteps of the woman who had taught me that true strength lies in the fire inside you, the same fire I had learned to keep alive, one stride at a time. 【解析】 【导语】文章以人物为线索展开，作者曾经是一个完全不擅长运动、甚至连慢跑都难以坚持的女孩，几年前在一场为抗击乳腺癌筹款的公益跑步活动中，看到一位年近七十、光头的癌症幸存者依然坚定地跑步，还超越了年轻的自己和朋友们，深受触动与激励。此后作者下定决心开始锻炼，从只能坚持三分钟慢跑逐步进步。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段首句内容“一年后，我再次参加了“为治愈赛跑”公益活动。”可知，第一段可描写作者再次参加比赛时的心理活动以及比赛开始后作者的状态。 ②由第二段首句内容“就在我快要放弃的时候，我看到了去年那位女士”可知，第二段可描写那位女士跑步时的情况以及作者在她的榜样作用下坚持比赛和作者的感悟。 2.续写线索：心理活动——感到疲惫——想要放弃——在榜样激励下坚持比赛——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①集中精力于：concentrate on/focus on/throw oneself in ②消失：vanish/fade away ③重要：matter/count 情绪类 ①决心：determination/resolution ②不知疲倦的：untiring/tireless 【点睛】[高分句型1] This time my legs carried not just the weight of my body, but the memory of every early morning and aching evening I had spent pushing myself further.

Researchers have built the smallest fully programmable autonomous robots ever created. These machines can swim through liquid, sense their surroundings, respond on their own, and operate for months at a time. Powered entirely by light, the robots contain minicomputers that allow them to follow programmed paths, detect local temperature changes, and adjust their movement in response. As is known, fish and other large swimmers move by pushing water backward, generating forward motion. The tiny robots take a very different approach. These robots generate an electrical field that gently pushes charged bits in the surrounding liquid. As those charged bits move, they drag nearby tiny water molecules with them, effectively creating motion in the liquid around the robot. True autonomy requires more than movement. A robot must also be able to sense its environment, make decisions, and power itself. All of those parts must fit onto a chip that is only a small part of a millimeter across. One of the biggest problems was power. “The key challenge for the electronics,” Blaauw, a researcher, says, “is that the solar boards are tiny and produce only 75 nanowatts (纳瓦) of power.” To make the system work, the team designed specialized circuits that operate at extremely low voltages (电压), cutting power consumption by more than 1,000 times. Space was another major limitation. The solar boards take up most of the robot’s surface, leaving very little room for computing hardware. To solve this, the researchers redesigned how the robot’s software works. “We squeezed what would usually require many instructions for movement control into a single, special instruction to reduce the program’s length to fit in the robot’s tiny memory space,” Blaauw explains. Together, these advances produced what the researchers believe is the first sub-millimeter robot capable of real decision-making. “This is really just the first chapter,” says Blaauw. “We’ve shown that you can put a brain, a sensor and a motor into something almost too small to see, and have it survive and work for months. Once you have that foundation, you can layer on all kinds of intelligence and functionality. It opens the door to a whole new future for mini-robots.” 24. What mainly powers the tiny robots? A. Batteries. B. Water flow. C. Solar boards. D. Electric fields. 25. What guarantees the robot’s true autonomy? A. Big memory space. B. Integrated key parts. C. Long program length. D. Single movement step. 26. What was the key challenge for the robots’ electronics? A. Limited memory space. B. High voltage requirements. C. Extremely low power supply. D. Unstable temperature control. 27. What is the main significance of the research according to Blaauw? A. Creating long-lasting micro-batteries. B. Developing new solar power systems. C. Achieving full automation in large robots. D. Enabling intelligence in nearly invisible robots. Harry Potter author JK Rowling has responded to Emma Watson’s recent comments about their rift over transgender rights, stating the actor is “ignorant of how ignorant she is.” This comes after Watson said in a podcast interview that she could still “treasure Jo and the person that I had personal experiences with” despite their differing views. In a lengthy post, Rowling wrote that while Watson and her co-stars have “every right to embrace gender identity ideology, ” she took issue with them feeling an “obligation to critique me and my views in public” due to their former professional association. Watson, along with Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint, has previously publicly disagreed with Rowling’s gender-critical beliefs. In 2020, Watson tweeted that “Trans people are who they say they are,” directly responding to Rowling’s essay about single-sex spaces. Rowling revealed she had “repeatedly declined invitations” to comment on Watson’s views to avoid having her “hounded.” She described receiving a brief note from Watson after the actor’s 2022 Bafta speech, which came at a time when Rowling was receiving peak “death, rape and torture threats.” “Emma had just publicly poured more petrol on the flames, yet thought a one line expression of concern from her would reassure me,” Rowling wrote. She concluded by contrasting their life experiences, stating Watson has “so little experience of real life” being “cushioned by wealth and fame” since youth, whereas Rowling lived in poverty while writing Harry Potter. She said she therefore understands “what the trashing of women’s rights… means to women and girls without her privileges.” Rowling had earlier indicated she was unwilling to forgive Watson and Radcliffe for having “cosied up to a movement intent on eroding women’s hard-won rights.” 28. According to the article, why does Rowling disagree with Watson’s remarks? A. Watson’s wealth and fame have shielded her from real-world struggles. B. Watson lacks the educational background to discuss gender issues. C. Watson has misinterpreted Rowling’s original essay on single-sex spaces. D. Watson has refused private communication with Rowling. 29. Which of the following statements is TRUE based on the text? A. Rowling publicly invited Watson to discuss their differences on a podcast. B. Watson believes trans people should not be accepted as they identify. C. Watson, Radcliffe, and Grint have all publicly supported Rowling’s views. D. Rowling received a note from Watson following her 2022 Bafta speech. 30. What is Rowling’s likely attitude toward future? A. Open and hopeful. B. Indifferent and passive. C. Ambiguous but curious. D. Unwilling and resentful. 31. What is the main purpose of referring to Rowling’s lengthy post in the article? A. Reconcile with her former Harry Potter colleagues. B. Justify her stance and criticize Watson’s public remarks. C. Promote a new book or public statement on gender identity. D. Clarify her support for transgender rights. Universe Is Not a Simulation It’s an idea often explored in science fiction: what if our entire universe is actually a simulation created by an advanced civilization’s supercomputer? New research from UBC Okanagan suggests that this concept isn’t just improbable: it’s mathematically impossible. Dr. Mir Faizal, an Adjunct Professor at UBC Okanagan’s Irving K. Barber Faculty of Science, worked with an international team that includes Drs. Lawrence M. Krauss, Arshid Shabir, and Francesco Marino. Together, they have demonstrated that the deepest layers of reality function in a way that fundamentally no computer could ever replicate (复制). Their study, published in the Journal of Applications in Physics, moves beyond the familiar idea that we might be living in a simulated reality similar to The Matrix. Instead, it presents a more profound conclusion: the universe itself is founded on a kind of understanding that cannot be captured or reproduced by any algorithm (算法). “It has been suggested that the universe could be simulated. If such a simulation were possible, the simulated universe could itself give rise to life, which in turn might create its own simulation. This repeated possibility makes it seem highly unlikely that our universe is the original one, rather than a simulation nested within another simulation,” says Dr. Faizal. “This idea was once thought to lie beyond the reach of scientific inquiry. However, our recent research has demonstrated that it can, in fact, be scientifically addressed.” The research hinges on a fascinating property of reality itself. Modern physics has moved far beyond Newton’s tangible “stuff” bouncing around in space. Einstein’s theory of relativity replaced Newtonian mechanics. Quantum mechanics (量子力学) transformed our understanding again. Today’s cutting-edge theory — modern physics — suggests that even space and time aren’t fundamental. They emerge from something deeper: pure information. This information exists in what physicists call a Platonic realm — a mathematical foundation more real than the physical universe we experience. It’s from this realm that space and time themselves emerge. “Drawing on mathematical theorems related to incompleteness and indefinability, we demonstrate that a fully consistent and complete description of reality cannot be achieved through computation alone,” Dr. Faizal explains. 32. What is the core conclusion of the UBC Okanagan research? A. The universe is a supercomputer simulation B. Cosmic simulation lacks mathematical possibility C. Advanced civilizations can build supercomputers D. Science fiction ideas will be proved someday 33. What can we learn from Dr. Faizal’s words? A. Nested simulation once seemed reasonable. B. Simulated universe definitely has no life. C. Our universe must be the original one. D. Scientific inquiry can solve all problems. 34. It can be inferred from modern physics that _______. A. Newtonian mechanics is completely wrong B. space and time are not basic things C. pure information is less real than physical world D. Einstein’s theory replaced quantum mechanics 35. The research is mainly based on the fact that_______. A. algorithms can capture the deepest reality B. computation alone describes reality fully C. math theorems show limits of computation D. platonic realm is just a physical concept Why struggle with an essay when AI can generate one on your behalf in seconds? Why personally respond to an email when AI can instantly produce automatic replies filled with all the typical greetings and talking-points? ____36____ Nevertheless, the ease is not necessarily a good thing. Writing still can’t be replaced even in the AI-driven era. Writing serves as a fundamental cognitive (认知的) exercise through which we realize what we truly understand, acknowledge the limits of our knowledge, and develop structured reasoning. More crucially, it is precisely by the very act of writing that we individuals ultimately make new sense of the world around us and arrive at a deeper understanding of who we are. ____37____ Paul Graham, a well-known computer scientist, once observed, “Good writers do not simply think and then record thoughts casually. ____38____” Writing helps us generate ideas we have never had before. Another critical but often overlooked function of writing is the compression (凝练) of ideas. ____39____ When done poorly, this process loses precious insights. When done well, it generates the insights and removes the unnecessary parts. Compression requires thinking, which is one reason why writing is so difficult. AI can write for us, but it won’t help us learn to think or understand a problem with deep fluency. And we need deep fluency to solve hard problems. A world of common thinking available on demand will encourage people to outsource their thinking and reward people who don’t. ____40____ Original thinking will only become more valuable in the future. A. It bridges the gap between ideas. B. Many people depend heavily on AI. C. AI has made writing surprisingly effortless. D. They always uncover insights in the act of writing. E. Those who can think and write independently will stand out. F. This journey of self-discovery is in essence a vital form of learning. G. Writing requires us to keep to a point and organize our ideas logically. 三、完形填空（每题1分，合计15分） My son and his new friend met on the way to school.

I was the girl who finished her laps last in gym class, the girl who was breathless after two flights of stairs, and the girl who complained of pain after a two-minute jog. Pretty sad, really. But a few years ago, I changed my tune. I was walking with a group of friends in the Race for the Cure, a race to raise money for the fight against breast cancer, when one lady caught my eye. She was one of the weakest looking women I'd ever seen. She must have been close to seventy years old, wearing a hat to cover her bald head and a T-shirt with the word “Survivor”. She was so small that it seemed as if a swift breeze could tip her over. But, she was running. And she was passing me and my group of twenty-something friends. I couldn't stop staring at her. She ran slowly, but determinedly — as if each step pushed her cancer further into her past. She was practically walking on her cancer every time her feet touched the ground. Then, I looked at my friends. Here we were, in the best time of our lives, and this seventy-year-old cancer survivor was kicking our butts! Right at that moment, I swore that in the nextRace for the Cure, I'd be running along with her. A week later, I found myself at the gym. I got on and started to jog. Three minutes after I started, my face was bright red. I was sweating and felt like my lungs were going to burst. I had to slow down to walk. I thought about the woman at the race. She made it look so easy. I kept it up. I was able to go a little longer each time. Three and a half minutes. Four minutes. Five. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式作答。 A year later, I was at the Race for the Cure again. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When I was giving up, I saw the woman from the year before. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $听力考试正式开始。At my old firm, I was always chasing promotions, working insane hours.

Hi everyone, i'm a weather forecaster, which means I study what happens in the atmosphere and the weather conditions that occur on earth. People are always surprised to learn that forecasters aren't just involved in whether reports on TV, but they could also work at a radio station too. I often get asked how I got interested in weather, believe IT or not. As a teenager, I became nervous of thunder storms, and i'd often check the forecasts to see if any were coming from there. My interest developed. If you are thinking of going into weather forecasting, there are some important skills you need. You have to be good at science. Of course, the essential thing is having the ability to make sense of presence. You won't go too far wrong with that. Another useful scale is being able to translate a forecast into something people at home can understand. Most weather experts study physics and math before going on to do a more specialized course in forecasting. My own way in was somewhat different. As I did a business degree before getting into television as a researcher, I moved around quite a lot at the T, V station and eventually ended up in the weather department where I did . my training.

Hello everyone, i'd like to talk about chinese cartoons today. Chinese cartoons stated from the period of nineteen twenty two to one hundred forty nine, the van brothers produced china's first animated short in two thousand twenty six, titled studios scene.

The period from one thousand and fifty to one hundred and sixty four was regarded as the golden age of chinese cartoons. Many excEllent animated works came up, and many new stores were created. The well known action cartoon magic brush, one china's first international award, another example havoc heaven, tells the heroic story of the monkey king, combining clastic chinese culture and cartoon, creating a good memory for many people that until today, chinese cartoons began their second development stage after one thousand nine seventy eight, classic animated films such as naja and the three months were shown on screen. Their stories were mostly based on traditional chinese literature and featured a typical asian style. However, from nineteen ninety six to twenty fourteen, chinese cartoons, sorry, decline compared with the introduction of cartoons from other countries, including japan.
