As a former diving star, Arnett’s journey is not one of careful planning, but of a “free spirit” stepping into the unknown. After graduating with a unique combination of philosophy and language science, Arnett faced a crossroads. Without a set plan, she followed her passion for diving to Macau, China, joining the circus. Moving from traditional 10-meter platforms to 25-meter heights was a psychological challenge. “Going twice as high as I was used to was scary at first, but once you do it, it’s really addicting,” she recalled. This marked her first major shift: transforming fear into an “addictive” pursuit of heights. When the global public event froze the entertainment industry, Arnett adjusted to the change by running a coffee shop in Mexico. Eventually, she secured a highly-regarded spot in Cirque du Soleil’s “O”—a water show held at the Bellagio in Las Vegas. For three years, she enjoyed the stability of performing for cheers rather than scores. However, a quiet urge began to grow. She started questioning her choices, disturbed by the possibility of future regrets. “It’s always been knocking on the door, and I’ve just never opened that door yet,” she admitted. This internal struggle between the “laid-back lifestyle” of shows and the high-pressure world of competition defined her next turning point. Deciding to “check every bucket list”, Arnett threw herself back into competition in 2024. Her return was triumphant, placing her among the world’s top high divers with a potential Olympic future in 2028. Reflecting on her wandering path, Arnett views herself as a “tumbleweed”, a nod to her Texas roots. “Wherever life takes you, just be able to adapt to that situation,” she said. For Arnett, life is an ocean of possibilities where the “wind of destiny (命运)” guides her toward ever-greater heights. 4. What can we know about Arnett from paragraph 1? A. She prefers a perfect plan. B. She is an adaptable adventurer. C. She is afraid of heights when standing above water. D. She was greatly influenced by the major she chose. 5. Why did Arnett quit the water show? A. She received a better job offer. B. She found the work there was repetitive. C. She feared missing out on future opportunities. D. She had a strong desire for public recognition. 6. What does the underlined word “triumphant” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Remarkably successful. B. Secretly arranged. C. Completely unexpected. D. Technically demanding. 7. Which of the following may Arnett agree with? A. One should outgrow the external forces. B. One should welcome changes with flexibility. C. It is never too late to set a specific goal. D. Exhibiting strict self-discipline is key to success. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. A 7. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍前跳水明星Kaylea Arnett的人生历程，讲述她多次转变方向、适应变化并重返赛场取得成功的故事。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“As a former diving star, Arnett’s journey is not one of careful planning, but of a “free spirit” stepping into the unknown. After graduating with a unique combination of philosophy and language science, Arnett faced a crossroads. Without a set plan, she followed her passion for diving to Macau, China, joining the circus.(作为前跳水明星，Arnett的人生旅程并非精心规划，而是一个“自由灵魂”踏入未知的过程。毕业于哲学和语言科学这一独特的专业组合后，Arnett面临着一个十字路口。没有既定计划，她追随自己对跳水的热爱来到中国澳门，加入了马戏团)”以及“Moving from traditional 10-meter platforms to 25-meter heights was a psychological challenge. “Going twice as high as I was used to was scary at first, but once you do it, it’s really addicting,” she recalled.(从传统的10米跳台转向25米的高度是一项心理挑战。她回忆道：“一开始，跳的高度是我习惯的两倍，确实很吓人，但一旦你做到了，就真的会上瘾。”)”可知，Arnett没有固定计划，敢于踏入未知，还能克服心理挑战适应更高的跳台，是一个适应力强的冒险者。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“However, a quiet urge began to grow. She started questioning her choices, disturbed by the possibility of future regrets. “It’s always been knocking on the door, and I’ve just never opened that door yet,” she admitted.(然而，一种隐秘的渴望开始滋生。她开始质疑自己的选择，被未来可能留下遗憾的想法所困扰。“它一直在敲门，而我从未打开过那扇门，”她承认道)”可知，Arnett退出水上表演是因为她担心错过未来的机会，害怕留下遗憾。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中的“ Her return was triumphant, placing her among the world’s top high divers with a potential Olympic future in 2028.(她的回归是triumphant，使她跻身世界顶尖高台跳水运动员之列，并有望参加2028年奥运会)”可知，她回归后跻身世界顶尖行列、有望参加奥运会，说明回归是非常成功的，因此triumphant意为“非常成功的”。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Reflecting on her wandering path, Arnett views herself as a “tumbleweed”, a nod to her Texas roots. “Wherever life takes you, just be able to adapt to that situation,” she said.(回顾自己曲折的人生道路，Arnett将自己视为一棵“风滚草”，这是对她得克萨斯州根源的致敬。“无论生活带你到哪里，都要能够适应那种情况，”她说)”可知，Arnett认为人应该灵活地适应生活中的变化，即带着灵活性迎接变化。 C In Kentucky, a unique site serves as both a farm and a power plant. While large-scale solar arrays (大规模光伏阵列) often use sheep to manage grass and plants, the developer Silicon Ranch is testing a more ambitious project: integrating solar energy with cattle. This practice, known as agrivoltaics, aims to maximize land use by combining renewable energy with food production. “The combination of solar and cattle could transform the renewable energy landscape,” says Nick de Vries, Silicon Ranch’s chief technology officer. By using vast stretches of grazing land (牧场), companies can expand solar capacity without taking up land for agricultural businesses. This is vital in regions like Kentucky, where land competition is a major concern. However, cattle present unique challenges compared to sheep. “They’re very large animals,” de Vries explains. “Cattle brush against things. They like to push.” Unlike sheep, which easily fit under solar panels, cattle can damage equipment. To solve this, Silicon Ranch developed CattleTracker. The main idea is that panels are easiest to damage when they are standing straight up. The CattleTracker system adjusts the panels to stay horizontal when cattle are nearby, preventing the animals from running into them. Furthermore, the system goes well with traditional farming. Workers move cattle periodically to allow grass to recover. Solar panels can operate with normal tracking when cattle are away and switch to “limited tracking” mode when they return. This marriage of technology and agriculture also focuses on managing biodiversity and increasing the soil’s capacity to store carbon. Despite a shift in government policy and the reduction of renewable energy subsidies (补贴), de Vries remains optimistic. While government-funded research has helped us understand the environmental effects of solar grazing, he believes the industry should not rely only on subsidies. “You should aim for a good business solution, and then find what’s going to work in other places,” he states. If successful, this model could turn a climate challenge into a sustainable (可持续的), net-positive solution for both energy and food. 8. Why is the project in Kentucky significant? A. It resolves land use conflicts. B. It boosts local sheep farming. C. It reduces solar energy costs. D. It creates new jobs for the natives. 9. What is the core function of the CattleTracker system? A. To track the movement of cattle. B. To monitor the health condition of cattle. C. To increase the efficiency of solar panels. D. To protect equipment from potential damage. 10. What does de Vries suggest for the industry’s future? A. Expanding scientific research scale. B. Seeking more government subsidies. C. Pursuing market-driven growth models. D. Restructuring government energy policies. 11. What would be a suitable title for the text? A. Agrivoltaics: Saving Kentucky’s Agriculture B. Challenges in Raising Cattle on Solar Farms C. Technology’s Influence on Kentucky’s Animals D. New Partnership: Solar Power Meets Cattle Grazing 【答案】8. A 9. D 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了肯塔基州一个将太阳能与养牛结合的农业光伏项目及其意义、挑战与前景。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“By using vast stretches of grazing land (牧场), companies can expand solar capacity without taking up land for agricultural businesses. This is vital in regions like Kentucky, where land competition is a major concern.(通过使用大片的牧场，公司可以在不占用农业用地的情况下扩大太阳能容量。这在肯塔基州等土地竞争是主要问题的地区至关重要。)”可知，肯塔基州的这个项目通过结合太阳能和养牛，解决了土地使用的冲突问题。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“To solve this, Silicon Ranch developed CattleTracker. The main idea is that panels are easiest to damage when they are standing straight up. The CattleTracker system adjusts the panels to stay horizontal when cattle are nearby, preventing the animals from running into them.(为解决这一问题，该公司研发了肉牛追踪系统。其核心原理是：光伏板竖直放置时最易受损；当牛群靠近，系统会自动将光伏板调节至水平状态，避免牛群碰撞损毁设备。)”可知，CattleTracker系统的核心功能是保护设备免受潜在损害。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“While government-funded research has helped us understand the environmental effects of solar grazing, he believes the industry should not rely only on subsidies. “You should aim for a good business solution, and then find what’s going to work in other places,” he states.(虽然政府资助的研究帮助我们了解了太阳能放牧对环境的影响，但他认为该行业不应仅仅依赖补贴。他说：“你应该寻求一个好的商业解决方案，然后找到在其他地方可行的方案。”)”可知，德弗里斯认为该行业不应仅仅依赖补贴，而应追求市场驱动的增长模式。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据第一段中“In Kentucky, a unique site serves as both a farm and a power plant. While large-scale solar arrays (大规模光伏阵列) often use sheep to manage grass and plants, the developer Silicon Ranch is testing a more ambitious project: integrating solar energy with cattle. This practice, known as agrivoltaics, aims to maximize land use by combining renewable energy with food production.(在肯塔基州，有一个独特的地点既是农场又是发电厂。虽然大规模太阳能阵列经常使用绵羊来管理草和植物，但开发商Silicon Ranch正在测试一个更具雄心的项目：将太阳能与牛结合。这种被称为农业光伏的做法旨在通过将可再生能源与食品生产相结合来最大化土地利用。)”可知，文章主要介绍了肯塔基州的一个创新项目，该项目将太阳能发电与养牛相结合，形成了一种新的农业光伏模式。因此，D选项“New Partnership: Solar Power Meets Cattle Grazing(新的伙伴关系：太阳能与养牛相遇)”最符合文章主旨。 D As AI systems take on increasingly humanlike tasks, there’s been a push to understand how they “see” the world. “Our brains use clever ways to pick out details from our busy surroundings,” says Eiji Watanabe, an associate professor of neurophysiology. Relying on them often leads to optical illusions (视错觉), which were once thought to be unique to humans. Yet, certain AI models fall for the same visual tricks, particularly those designed to copy human brain pathways. In his study, Watanabe and his team tested a deep neural network called “PredNet” by showing it still images that humans view as moving, such as the “rotating (转动) snakes” illusion. It was found that the AI’s predictive system generated “illusory motion” just like a human brain did. For example, after being trained on thousands of natural videos, PredNet began to predict future frames based on past experience. When faced with specific patterns, the AI mistakenly “saw” rotation in a still image, matching the human experience. While copying human perception (感知) may be a sign of advanced AI, it may also lead to unexpected errors in critical tasks. The same mechanisms (机制) that allow for rapid processing can cause visual errors. In AI-driven technologies like medical imaging or self-driving cars, misinterpreting a still object as moving could lead to serious consequences. Watanabe’s study also found that creating a perfect artificial visual system was difficult. For instance, even though AI can copy the illusion, it lacks a key human feature: the “attention mechanism.” If a human fixes their eyes on one spot, the illusion often stops; however, the AI continues to perceive motion across the entire image. However, Watanabe sees these mistakes as a valuable opportunity to understand the human brain. When AI falls for an illusion, it supports theories like “predictive coding” — the concept that we see what we expect to see. These models offer a way to study complex brain functions and sensory differences without the moral concerns of human experimentation. 12. Which aspect of AI systems does Watanabe’s study focus on? A. Their overall processing speed. B. Their perception of the world. C. Their precision in sorting images. D. Their application in medical fields. 13. What causes AI to experience the “illusory motion”? A. Its reliance on previous visual knowledge. B. Its inability to detect some specific patterns. C. Its absence of an important attention mechanism. D. Its design independent of human brain pathways. 14. How does AI differ from humans in visual perception? A. It lacks a focus-based self-correction system. B. It processes visual details at a slower rate. C. It fails to distinguish motion from rotation. D. It ignores crucial details of still images. 15. What value does Watanabe find in AI’s making visual mistakes? A. It shows the disadvantage of predictive coding. B. It offers a moral way to study the human brain. C. It explains the complexity of sensory differences. D. It helps to create perfect artificial visual systems. 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【导语】主要介绍随着人工智能系统承担越来越多类似人类的任务，渡边英二副教授研究人工智能如何 “看” 世界，发现其存在视错觉问题及与人类视觉感知的差异，同时这种视觉错误对理解人类大脑有一定价值。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“As AI systems take on increasingly humanlike tasks, there’s been a push to understand how they “see” the world. “Our brains use clever ways to pick out details from our busy surroundings,” says Eiji Watanabe, an associate professor of neurophysiology.(随着人工智能系统承担越来越多类似人类的任务，人们开始努力了解它们是如何 “看” 世界的。神经生理学副教授渡边英二说：“我们的大脑使用巧妙的方法从繁忙的环境中挑选出细节。”)”可知，渡边英二的研究聚焦于人工智能系统对世界的感知。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“For example, after being trained on thousands of natural videos, PredNet began to predict future frames based on past experience. When faced with specific patterns, the AI mistakenly “saw” rotation in a still image, matching the human experience.(例如，在对数千个自然视频进行训练后，PredNet开始根据过去的经验预测未来的画面。当面对特定模式时，人工智能错误地在静止图像中“看到”了旋转，这与人类的体验相符)”可知，人工智能依赖之前的视觉知识，导致它产生“虚幻运动”的错觉。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“For instance, even though AI can copy the illusion, it lacks a key human feature: the “attention mechanism.” If a human fixes their eyes on one spot, the illusion often stops; however, the AI continues to perceive motion across the entire image.(例如，尽管人工智能可以复制这种错觉，但它缺乏人类的一个关键特征：“注意力机制”。如果人类将目光固定在一个点上，错觉往往会停止；然而，人工智能会继续在整个图像中感知到运动)”可知，人工智能缺乏基于注意力集中的自我纠错系统，这是它与人类在视觉感知上的不同。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“However, Watanabe sees these mistakes as a valuable opportunity to understand the human brain. When AI falls for an illusion, it supports theories like “predictive coding” — the concept that we see what we expect to see. These models offer a way to study complex brain functions and sensory differences without the moral concerns of human experimentation.(然而，渡边认为这些错误是了解人类大脑的宝贵契机。当人工智能被视觉错觉迷惑时，这恰恰印证了预测编码等理论 —— 该理论认为，我们只会看见自己预期看见的事物。借助这些智能模型，人们可以研究复杂的大脑功能与感官差异，同时无需顾虑人体实验所涉及的伦理道德问题)”可知，渡边英二认为AI产生视觉错误的价值在于它为研究人类大脑提供了一种符合道德规范的方式。 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 I used to think being an adult was about trying to control the waves of chaos in life.

C 【解析】 【导语】文章讲述了作者因手机网络感到压抑，前往偏远无网村庄，在与老人劳作相处中重拾真实陪伴，领悟到科技连接世界，陪伴才联结心灵的道理。 【21题详解】 考查动词。句意：为了使自己恢复活力，我决定去一个偏远村庄待一周，那里几乎没有无线网络。A. impress给……留下深刻印象；B. refresh使恢复精力，刷新；C. persuade说服；D. reward奖励。根据上文“Last summer, I felt completely depressed by the endless “likes” and “shares” on my phone.”可知，作者被网络信息弄得心情低落压抑，由此可知，此处是想要放松、调整状态。 【22题详解】 考查名词。句意：为了使自己恢复活力，我决定去一个偏远村庄待一周，那里无线网络是一种奢望。A. fantasy幻想，奢望；B. test测试；C. must必需品；D. secret秘密。根据上文“in a remote village where Wi-Fi was a”可知，偏远乡村很难用上无线网络，属于不切实际的奢望。 【23题详解】 考查副词。句意：第一天下午，我坐在长椅上，心不在焉地伸手想去掏口袋查看最新消息。A. patiently耐心地；B. absent-mindedly心不在焉地；C. well-meaningly好意地；D. formally正式地。根据下文“reaching for my pocket to check the latest news”可知，作者长期依赖手机的习惯，来到无网络的乡村仍下意识想刷手机，是无意识、心不在焉的动作。 【24题详解】 考查形容词。句意：发现口袋空空没有手机，一阵焦虑感席卷了我。A. dirty肮脏的；B. broken破损的；C. empty空的；D. safe安全的。根据上文“in a remote village where Wi-Fi was a”提到村庄没有网络，作者下意识摸手机却无法使用，此处指口袋空空，没有可以随时上网的手机。 【25题详解】 考查动词。句意：就在这时，坐在旁边的一位老人邀请我帮忙整理一大筐干豆子。A. invited邀请；B. forced强迫；C. warned警告；D. permitted允许。根据下文“However, as we worked in harmony, the ____ disappeared.”可知，二人一起劳作、聊天的友好情节，可知老人是友好邀请作者帮忙。 【26题详解】 考查形容词。句意：起初，我觉得这份活儿很令人疲惫。A. familiar熟悉的；B. appealing吸引人的；C. meaningful有意义的；D. tiring令人疲劳的，累人的。根据下文“My fingers were used to tapping screens, not handling dusty seeds.”提到手指习惯敲击屏幕，不习惯摆弄沾满灰尘的豆子，能看出作者一开始难以适应这份手工劳作，心生疲惫厌烦。 【27题详解】 考查名词。句意：然而，随着我们默契配合劳作，尴尬感逐渐消失。A. dishonesty不诚实；B. curiosity好奇心；C. awkwardness尴尬；D. confidence自信。根据上文“Just then, an elderly man sitting nearby”以及“My fingers were used to tapping screens, not handling dusty seeds.”可知作者陌生且不适应农活，和老人相处初期会有生疏尴尬，熟悉协作后这种感觉慢慢消散。 【28题详解】 考查形容词。句意：他不在意我的网络个人资料，只对我的亲身经历感兴趣。A. visible可见的；B. interested感兴趣的；C. trapped被困的；D. hidden隐藏的。根据上文“We started talking— not about “trending” topics, but about the quality of the soil and the history of the trees around us.”可知，老人对作者的亲身经历感兴趣，固定搭配be interested in为固定短语，表示“对……感兴趣”，贴合二人真诚聊天交流的语境。 【29题详解】 考查动词。句意：到了第三天，我不再想念消失的手机信号。A. missing想念，惦记；B. ignoring忽视；C. reporting报道；D. sharing分享。根据上文“I felt a sense of anxiety washed over me”提到作者因没网络、没手机而焦虑，此处表示心态转变，不再挂念网络信号。 【30题详解】 考查名词。句意：我发现没有通知消息的打扰，我的观察力变得更加敏锐。A. protection保护；B. change改变；C. correction纠正；D. interruption干扰，打断。根据下文“of notifications”以及结合日常手机通知会不断打断生活、分散注意力，可知此处指没有消息的干扰。 【31题详解】 考查形容词。句意：我发现没有通知消息的打扰，我的观察力变得更加敏锐。A. narrower更狭窄的；B. simpler更简单的；C. sharper更敏锐的；D. closer更近的。根据下文“I saw the vivid colors of the sunset that no camera could truly capture.”提到作者留意到落日绚丽的色彩，是细致观察的结果，说明观察力变得敏锐。 【32题详解】 考查动词。句意：离开的时候到了，我没有和新朋友拍照留念。A. follow跟随；B. repeat重复；C. reflect反思；D. leave离开。根据上文“I decided to spend a week in a remote village”提到作者来乡村暂住一周，此处指假期结束、即将返程离开村庄。 【33题详解】 考查副词。句意：取而代之的是，我们紧紧握了握手。A. Instead反而，取而代之；B. Besides此外；C. Therefore因此；D. Somehow不知怎地。根据上文“I didn’t take a picture with my new friend.”可知，作者舍弃了网络时代常用的拍照留念方式，用真诚握手替代，instead用于对比替代关系。 【34题详解】 考查名词。句意：我最终回到了城市，但这段经历带来的感悟一直伴随我。A. encouragement鼓励；B. lesson教训，感悟；C. regret遗憾；D. pressure压力。根据下文“I learned that while technology connects the world, only ____ connects souls.”作者悟出科技与心灵联结的道理可知，这段乡村经历让他收获了人生感悟。 【35题详解】 考查名词。句意：我明白了科技能连接世界，唯有面对面的真实陪伴才能联结心灵。A. competition竞争；B. passion热情；C. presence在场；D. forgiveness原谅。根据下文“connects souls”以及结合文中老人面对面相处、劳作、谈心的真实相处模式，由此可知，真实的陪伴拉近心灵距离。 第二节 (共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式，并将答案填写在答题卡上。 A series of measures is making China increasingly attractive to international visitors, who love to explore Chinese culture, scenery and new experiences.

Albin Loidl, president of the German Travel Association, told Xinhua that the German travel industry hopes to deepen ____45____ (cooperate) with China so that more German travelers can explore the country’s diverse offerings. 【答案】36. was demonstrated 37. with 38. adjusting 39. draws 40. a 41. evident 42. which 43. and 44. adopted 45. cooperation 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了一系列措施使中国对国际游客越来越有吸引力，在2026年柏林国际旅游展（ITB Berlin 2026）上中国的吸引力得到展现，文中还提及外国人对中国兴趣的变化、相关旅游科技展示以及德国旅游业希望与中国加深合作等内容。 【36题详解】 考查时态和语态。句意：中国日益增长的吸引力在2026年柏林国际旅游展（ITB Berlin 2026）上得到了体现，这是一个全球旅游贸易展，于上周四结束了其60周年纪念活动。根据时间状语“last Thursday”可知，事情发生在过去，且主语“China’s growing appeal”与谓语动词“demonstrate”之间是被动关系，所以用一般过去时的被动语态，主语是单数。 【37题详解】 考查with复合结构。句意：该活动再次吸引了来自世界各地的旅游专业人士，整个展会期间，“你好，中国”展台引起了参观者的浓厚兴趣。分析句子结构可知，逗号后没有连词，不能是完整的句子，此处是“with +宾语+宾语补足语”的复合结构，在句中作状语。 【38题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：一位年轻的金发女子在中国展台前仔细整理着她的中式服装，微笑着对同伴说：“感觉我真的走进了一幅中国古画。” 分析句子结构可知，句中已有谓语动词smiled，所以此处应用非谓语动词，a young blonde woman与adjust之间是主动关系，所以用现在分词adjusting作伴随状语。 【39题详解】 考查名词复数。句意：“对许多外国人来说，美丽的自然风光和中国传统文化可能是吸引他们来中国旅游的一大亮点，” 在中国生活了16年的美国人杰克·平尼克（Jack Pinnick）告诉新华社。根据空前的形容词great可知，此处应填名词，draw的名词形式为draw（吸引力；有吸引力的人或事物），为可数名词，根据前面的“beautiful natural scenery and traditional Chinese culture”可知，此处应用复数形式draws，表示“吸引人的事物”。 【40题详解】 考查冠词。句意：今年，他在中国展台表演了一套武当武术套路，吸引了络绎不绝的围观者。a crowd of为固定短语，意为“一群”。 【41题详解】 考查形容词。句意：平尼克认为，国际游客对中国的兴趣正在以明显的方式发生变化。此处修饰名词ways，应用形容词evident，意为“明显的”。 【42题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：在柏林展会上，一家将人工智能应用于旅游服务的旅游科技公司展示了其“寻中国”人工智能行程规划引擎，这是一个智能推荐系统，也是一站式跨境旅游服务平台。分析句子结构可知，此处引导非限制性定语从句，先行词是a travel-tech company，指物，在从句中作主语，所以用关系代词which引导。 【43题详解】 考查连词。句意：在柏林展会上，一家将人工智能应用于旅游服务的旅游科技公司展示了其“寻中国”人工智能行程规划引擎，这是一个智能推荐系统，也是一站式跨境旅游服务平台。根据语境可知，前后是并列关系，意为“并且”，所以用连词and。 【44题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：除了新技术，中国采用更强有力的行业标准也有助于创造一个更安全、更可靠的市场环境。分析句子结构可知，句中已有谓语动词help，所以此处应用非谓语动词，standards与adopt之间是被动关系，所以用过去分词adopted作后置定语，表被动和完成。 【45题详解】 考查名词。句意：德国旅游协会主席阿尔宾·洛伊德尔（Albin Loidl）告诉新华社，德国旅游业希望深化与中国的合作，以便更多德国游客能够探索中国丰富多样的旅游资源。根据空前的动词deepen可知，此处应填名词作宾语，cooperate的名词形式为cooperation，意为“合作”，为不可数名词。 第四部分 写作 (共两节，满分40分) 第一节 (满分15分) 46. 假定你是李华，你校上个月举办了“校友开放日”活动，请给校英文报写一篇报道，内容包括： 1. 活动介绍； 2. 活动反响。 注意：1. 写作词数应为80个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 参考词汇：校友 alumnus (alumni pl) Alumni Reunion ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Alumni Reunion Last month, our school held an “Alumni Open Day” event, which drew great attention and participation.

But my never-ending to-do list jumped instantly, and my eyes drifted to the dinner dishes piled high in the sink, a silent refusal forming in my mind. I planned to tell her we could go tomorrow—I had to wash the dishes, and the whole day’s busyness exhausted me. Staring at her eager eyes, I remembered making the same excuse the night before, and I could not help but notice the disappointment in her eyes. It was our first summer living by the beach, and my daughter’s love for the beach was far beyond my imagination. Spending the entire day playing in the sand and waves was never enough for her. She whispered that summer was slipping away, and I knew she was right— summer in New England was always short, and if I kept putting it off, we might miss it entirely. Finally, I told her we could go but only for a quick walk. She rushed to put on her flip-flops (拖鞋). As we walked along the shoreline, she stopped now and then to gaze at the beach beneath her feet and the sky in the distance. She would glance at the setting sun and the beautiful pink-and-orange sky. But my mind was always elsewhere, barely noticing the beautiful scenery around us. After just fifteen minutes, I urged her to head back home. My attitude did not change at all over the next week. Every night, I accompanied her along the beach walk unwillingly, never truly calming down to enjoy the moment. To me, it was just another task I had to finish, bringing no joy at all. Then one day, everything changed. As we approached the dunes (沙丘), the color of the sky began to shift gradually. When we reached a place, a breathtaking sunset unfolded before our eyes— shades of orange, yellow, and red lit up the sky like a natural painting. My daughter and I stood there in surprise, all my restlessness and impatience fading away in that very moment. 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。 The next evening, instead of fearing the beach walk, I turned to my daughter. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ From that evening on, our beach walks were no longer a task. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 The next evening, instead of fearing the beach walk, I turned to my daughter. “How about we take a longer walk tonight and maybe even have a picnic?” I suggested, my voice filled with genuine enthusiasm. Her eyes widened with delight, and she quickly agreed, running to grab a blanket and some snacks. As we strolled along the beach, I made a conscious effort to engage with her, pointing out interesting shells and asking about her day. The sunset painted the sky in hues of gold and pink, and for the first time, I truly appreciated the beauty around us. From that evening on, our beach walks were no longer a task. They became a cherished time for us to bond and create lasting memories. I learned to let go of my worries and embrace the present moment, finding joy in the simple things like the sound of the waves and the warmth of the sun on my skin. My daughter, too, seemed happier and more content, knowing that she had my undivided attention. Those beach walks became a highlight of our summer, a reminder of the importance of slowing down and savoring life’s little pleasures. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者与九岁女儿在海边度夏时，因忙碌和疲惫而忽视女儿对海滩的热爱，连续敷衍陪伴散步的故事。起初，作者总以家务为由推脱，女儿虽失望却未抱怨，直到某天傍晚，两人在沙丘附近目睹壮丽的日落——天空被橙、黄、红色渲染如画。这一刻，作者内心的浮躁与不耐彻底消散，被自然之美与女儿的惊喜所触动。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“第二天晚上，我不再害怕去海滩散步了，而是转向我的女儿。”可知，第一段可以写作者主动提议去散步和女儿的反应以及散步的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“从那天晚上起，我们的海滩漫步不再是一项任务。”可知，第二段可以写作者与女儿的海滩散步从机械任务转变为珍贵亲子时光后的积极变化与深层感悟。 2.续写线索：作者提议去散步——作者女儿的反应——散步过程——感受到美好——作者和女儿的改变——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①建议：suggest/recommend ②漫步：stroll/ramble ③欣赏：appreciate/admire 情绪类 ①高兴：delight/joy ②担心：worry/concern 【点睛】[高分句型1] As we strolled along the beach, I made a conscious effort to engage with her, pointing out interesting shells and asking about her day.

B Standing 70 feet above the water, most would be seized by fear. Yet, Kaylea Arnett is “as cool as a cucumber”. As a former diving star, Arnett’s journey is not one of careful planning, but of a “free spirit” stepping into the unknown. After graduating with a unique combination of philosophy and language science, Arnett faced a crossroads. Without a set plan, she followed her passion for diving to Macau, China, joining the circus. Moving from traditional 10-meter platforms to 25-meter heights was a psychological challenge. “Going twice as high as I was used to was scary at first, but once you do it, it’s really addicting,” she recalled. This marked her first major shift: transforming fear into an “addictive” pursuit of heights. When the global public event froze the entertainment industry, Arnett adjusted to the change by running a coffee shop in Mexico. Eventually, she secured a highly-regarded spot in Cirque du Soleil’s “O”—a water show held at the Bellagio in Las Vegas. For three years, she enjoyed the stability of performing for cheers rather than scores. However, a quiet urge began to grow. She started questioning her choices, disturbed by the possibility of future regrets. “It’s always been knocking on the door, and I’ve just never opened that door yet,” she admitted. This internal struggle between the “laid-back lifestyle” of shows and the high-pressure world of competition defined her next turning point. Deciding to “check every bucket list”, Arnett threw herself back into competition in 2024. Her return was triumphant, placing her among the world’s top high divers with a potential Olympic future in 2028. Reflecting on her wandering path, Arnett views herself as a “tumbleweed”, a nod to her Texas roots. “Wherever life takes you, just be able to adapt to that situation,” she said. For Arnett, life is an ocean of possibilities where the “wind of destiny (命运)” guides her toward ever-greater heights. 4. What can we know about Arnett from paragraph 1? A. She prefers a perfect plan. B. She is an adaptable adventurer. C. She is afraid of heights when standing above water. D. She was greatly influenced by the major she chose. 5. Why did Arnett quit the water show? A. She received a better job offer. B. She found the work there was repetitive. C. She feared missing out on future opportunities. D. She had a strong desire for public recognition. 6. What does the underlined word “triumphant” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Remarkably successful. B. Secretly arranged. C. Completely unexpected. D. Technically demanding. 7. Which of the following may Arnett agree with? A. One should outgrow the external forces. B. One should welcome changes with flexibility. C. It is never too late to set a specific goal. D. Exhibiting strict self-discipline is key to success. C In Kentucky, a unique site serves as both a farm and a power plant. While large-scale solar arrays (大规模光伏阵列) often use sheep to manage grass and plants, the developer Silicon Ranch is testing a more ambitious project: integrating solar energy with cattle. This practice, known as agrivoltaics, aims to maximize land use by combining renewable energy with food production. “The combination of solar and cattle could transform the renewable energy landscape,” says Nick de Vries, Silicon Ranch’s chief technology officer. By using vast stretches of grazing land (牧场), companies can expand solar capacity without taking up land for agricultural businesses. This is vital in regions like Kentucky, where land competition is a major concern. However, cattle present unique challenges compared to sheep. “They’re very large animals,” de Vries explains. “Cattle brush against things. They like to push.” Unlike sheep, which easily fit under solar panels, cattle can damage equipment. To solve this, Silicon Ranch developed CattleTracker. The main idea is that panels are easiest to damage when they are standing straight up. The CattleTracker system adjusts the panels to stay horizontal when cattle are nearby, preventing the animals from running into them. Furthermore, the system goes well with traditional farming. Workers move cattle periodically to allow grass to recover. Solar panels can operate with normal tracking when cattle are away and switch to “limited tracking” mode when they return. This marriage of technology and agriculture also focuses on managing biodiversity and increasing the soil’s capacity to store carbon. Despite a shift in government policy and the reduction of renewable energy subsidies (补贴), de Vries remains optimistic. While government-funded research has helped us understand the environmental effects of solar grazing, he believes the industry should not rely only on subsidies. “You should aim for a good business solution, and then find what’s going to work in other places,” he states. If successful, this model could turn a climate challenge into a sustainable (可持续的), net-positive solution for both energy and food. 8. Why is the project in Kentucky significant? A. It resolves land use conflicts. B. It boosts local sheep farming. C. It reduces solar energy costs. D. It creates new jobs for the natives. 9. What is the core function of the CattleTracker system? A. To track the movement of cattle. B. To monitor the health condition of cattle. C. To increase the efficiency of solar panels. D. To protect equipment from potential damage. 10. What does de Vries suggest for the industry’s future? A. Expanding scientific research scale. B. Seeking more government subsidies. C. Pursuing market-driven growth models. D. Restructuring government energy policies. 11. What would be a suitable title for the text? A. Agrivoltaics: Saving Kentucky’s Agriculture B. Challenges in Raising Cattle on Solar Farms C. Technology’s Influence on Kentucky’s Animals D. New Partnership: Solar Power Meets Cattle Grazing D As AI systems take on increasingly humanlike tasks, there’s been a push to understand how they “see” the world. “Our brains use clever ways to pick out details from our busy surroundings,” says Eiji Watanabe, an associate professor of neurophysiology. Relying on them often leads to optical illusions (视错觉), which were once thought to be unique to humans. Yet, certain AI models fall for the same visual tricks, particularly those designed to copy human brain pathways. In his study, Watanabe and his team tested a deep neural network called “PredNet” by showing it still images that humans view as moving, such as the “rotating (转动) snakes” illusion. It was found that the AI’s predictive system generated “illusory motion” just like a human brain did. For example, after being trained on thousands of natural videos, PredNet began to predict future frames based on past experience. When faced with specific patterns, the AI mistakenly “saw” rotation in a still image, matching the human experience. While copying human perception (感知) may be a sign of advanced AI, it may also lead to unexpected errors in critical tasks. The same mechanisms (机制) that allow for rapid processing can cause visual errors. In AI-driven technologies like medical imaging or self-driving cars, misinterpreting a still object as moving could lead to serious consequences. Watanabe’s study also found that creating a perfect artificial visual system was difficult. For instance, even though AI can copy the illusion, it lacks a key human feature: the “attention mechanism.” If a human fixes their eyes on one spot, the illusion often stops; however, the AI continues to perceive motion across the entire image. However, Watanabe sees these mistakes as a valuable opportunity to understand the human brain. When AI falls for an illusion, it supports theories like “predictive coding” — the concept that we see what we expect to see. These models offer a way to study complex brain functions and sensory differences without the moral concerns of human experimentation. 12. Which aspect of AI systems does Watanabe’s study focus on? A. Their overall processing speed. B. Their perception of the world. C. Their precision in sorting images. D. Their application in medical fields. 13. What causes AI to experience the “illusory motion”? A. Its reliance on previous visual knowledge. B. Its inability to detect some specific patterns. C. Its absence of an important attention mechanism. D. Its design independent of human brain pathways. 14. How does AI differ from humans in visual perception? A. It lacks a focus-based self-correction system. B. It processes visual details at a slower rate. C. It fails to distinguish motion from rotation. D. It ignores crucial details of still images. 15. What value does Watanabe find in AI’s making visual mistakes? A. It shows the disadvantage of predictive coding. B. It offers a moral way to study the human brain. C. It explains the complexity of sensory differences. D. It helps to create perfect artificial visual systems. 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 I used to think being an adult was about trying to control the waves of chaos in life. I’d look at the unorganized mess in my early 20s—a period filled with missed deadlines — and couldn’t help but contrast it to the tidy way my mother organized her life. ___16___ But now that I’ve lived a bit longer in this unpredictable world, I realize my mother actually taught me a different, more profound lesson: ___17___ True maturity is not the absence of trouble; it’s the strength found within it. ___18___ While we were living there, it received its first heavy rain in nearly a century. We quickly discovered that the city lacked a proper drainage (排水) system. Within hours, the landscape changed completely. Every road turned into a rushing river and — as my mother struggled against the flood to drive us to school — every roundabout became an unexpected lake. I remember the terrifying feeling of weightlessness as our car began to float.

But my never-ending to-do list jumped instantly, and my eyes drifted to the dinner dishes piled high in the sink, a silent refusal forming in my mind. I planned to tell her we could go tomorrow—I had to wash the dishes, and the whole day’s busyness exhausted me. Staring at her eager eyes, I remembered making the same excuse the night before, and I could not help but notice the disappointment in her eyes. It was our first summer living by the beach, and my daughter’s love for the beach was far beyond my imagination. Spending the entire day playing in the sand and waves was never enough for her. She whispered that summer was slipping away, and I knew she was right— summer in New England was always short, and if I kept putting it off, we might miss it entirely. Finally, I told her we could go but only for a quick walk. She rushed to put on her flip-flops (拖鞋). As we walked along the shoreline, she stopped now and then to gaze at the beach beneath her feet and the sky in the distance. She would glance at the setting sun and the beautiful pink-and-orange sky. But my mind was always elsewhere, barely noticing the beautiful scenery around us. After just fifteen minutes, I urged her to head back home. My attitude did not change at all over the next week. Every night, I accompanied her along the beach walk unwillingly, never truly calming down to enjoy the moment. To me, it was just another task I had to finish, bringing no joy at all. Then one day, everything changed. As we approached the dunes (沙丘), the color of the sky began to shift gradually. When we reached a place, a breathtaking sunset unfolded before our eyes— shades of orange, yellow, and red lit up the sky like a natural painting. My daughter and I stood there in surprise, all my restlessness and impatience fading away in that very moment. 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。 The next evening, instead of fearing the beach walk, I turned to my daughter. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ From that evening on, our beach walks were no longer a task. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
