She, an Advance Woman of Achievement who spent her life fighting for “the children of God”, believed that children with Down Syndrome (DS) were often treated badly and neglected based on what they look like. Ms. Russo devoted her life to disabled, abandoned children. Her motto was to live life to the fullest with love in your heart and a smile on your face and remember never to hurt anyone. Born in Rosebank, Ms. Russo was the eldest child of Dorothy and Louis Russo, who moved to Grasmere during the early 1950s. Educated at St. John Villa Academy, Ms. Russo then joined the U. S. Navy and went to California where she worked for children with Down Syndrome as a nurse. It was at that time that she first met children with Down Syndrome. In 1972, she started Down Syndrome Learning Center in Tottenville, but later, because of a lack of funding, she moved the school to her home. The program included kindergarten and graded elementary classes, as well as reading classes, a wood shop, day trips and a sleep away camp. Early on there weren’t too many programs for children with disabilities and they didn’t start school until they were 3 years old. Ms. Russo felt they were being cheated out of an education during the years that are the most developmental. Throughout the years, she applied to city and state officials for better programs for Down Syndrome children. Over the years she helped place a number of Down Syndrome children, including 11 from Willowbrook, in adoptive or foster families. She stressed parents shouldn’t be influenced by negative labels schools and medical professionals used in describing children’s abilities. “Professionals always tell you what they (DS children) cannot do,” she once said. “Keep them stimulated. You treat them more towards the normal, not the exception, and you will get more out of your child.” 4. What left children with Down Syndrome overlooked according to Ms. Russo? A. Their abilities. B. Their physical appearances. C. Their movements. D. Their disappointed parents. 5. What made Ms. Russo start Down Syndrome Learning Center? A. The internal calling to help. B. The availability of enough money. C. The repeated requests of parents. D. The growing number of DS children. 6. What does Ms. Russo want to convey in the last paragraph? A. Society needs to change the attitude towards DS children. B. Professionals often underestimate the DS children’s abilities. C. Parents should have faith in their children’s potential to encourage growth. D. Parents should accept their children’s limitations and provide special treatment. 7. What is the main idea of the text? A. Teri Russo devoted her life to fighting for DS children. B. A devoted nurse tried her best to explore Down Syndrome. C. Programs Teri Russo successfully started helped DS children. D. DS children face more challenges than normal people expect. C Oil leaks (泄漏) at sea pose risks to water life and people. Attempts to remove that oil tend to be messy and costly and are often not very effective. But scientists have found a new way to absorb that sticky pollution: cork (软木). Past research showed that cork could collect oil. Treating cork with lasers (激光) speeds up the pace at which cork picks up oil on water, reports Yuchun He, a professor at Central South University in Changsha, China. His team came across the new treatment by accident. The team had been using lasers to carve patterns into wood. These researchers hoped the patterns might help them build electronic devices from the wood. They’d never tried carving cork before. But when they did, something unexpected happened. The cork darkened. That change suggested cork can transform light into heat. They already knew that untreated cork could absorb oil. But adding heat could help. Oil is highly thick. But oil gets thinner when it warms up. And thinner oil should more easily soak (浸透) into cork or stick to its surface. The scientists had a feeling that tiny holes created by the laser might help the cork store more heat. This treated cork should warm up more quickly than usual in sunlight. And that warmth should thin nearby oil, making it easier for the cork to absorb it. To test this, they compared small, thin slices of original cork to laser-treated cork. In the dark, both corks took about 45 minutes to absorb just two drops of oil. With a camera, the researchers watched as this happened. Then, they repeated the experiment in sunlight and compared the results. In the sun, the untreated cork needed 10 minutes to absorb the oil while the laser-treated cork took just two minutes. The treated cork is an example of something that can clean up oil leaks. However, the new tests took place in a lab, so cork cleanup will need to be tested in real-world conditions too — at sea. That will determine if the technique works on a large scale and without harming water life. 8. What does “the new treatment” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A. Carving patterns into original wood. B. Collecting oil with laser-treated cork. C. Absorbing pollution with cutup wood. D. Making e-devices with laser-treated cork. 9. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The basic logic behind the finding. B. The design of the team’s experiment. C. The skill of making thick oil thinner D. The method of turning light into heat. 10. Which of the following performs best in absorbing oil? A. Untreated cork in darkness. B. Laser-treated cork in darkness. C. Untreated cork in sunlight. D. Laser-treated cork in sunlight. 11. What is likely to be the focus of the follow-up study? A. Conducting more experiments in labs. B. Testing treated cork in natural oceans. C. Starting large scale cleanup programs. D. Researching the damage to water life. D A few days ago, I watched a video of myself talking in perfect Chinese. I’ve been studying the language on and off for only a few years, and I’m far from fluent. But there I was, pronouncing each character just as a native speaker would. “My favorite food is sushi,” I said — wo zui xihuan de shiwu shi shousi. I’d created the video using software from a Los Angeles-based artificial-intelligence start-up called HeyGen. The technology, which only needs a single selfie and a script to generate deepfake videos of real people “saying” almost anything, is a testament (证明) to the advancements in AI language tools. This got me thinking about the declining interest in language learning with fewer students enrolling in foreign language courses and the decrease of English proficiency among young people in some places. AI translation, integrated into social media and messaging platforms, seems to be everywhere. Even language-learning apps are using AI-generated content in their marketing. However, language translation is an art rather than a science. Something enormous will be lost in exchange for that convenience. As Anne, a Chinese translator said, “Building a ladder between widely different languages, such as Chinese and English, is sometimes as difficult as a doctor building a bridge in a patient’s heart,” Language learning fosters cultural competency, a skill that AI cannot simply copy. Learning a different way to speak, read, and write helps people discover new ways to see the world. No machine can replace such a profound human experience. Deborah Cohn, a language professor, emphasizes that language learning is actually about understanding and connecting with different cultures; Instead of abandoning language courses in favor of AI, some educators advocate for emphasizing the intercultural aspects of language learning. Paula Krebs of the MLA points out that even with a “universal translator”, sometimes, the greater meaning of people’s utterance (言辞) remains a mystery. In essence, while AI language tools offer convenience, they lack the depth and cultural insight that comes from human language learning. The challenge and beauty of learning a language are in understanding the cultural tapestry (织锦) that weaves through words, something AI has yet to achieve. 12. Why does the author give the example in paragraph 1? A. To promote the language software. B. To show off his Chinese language skills. C. To prove learning a language is a wasted effort. D. To encourage critical thinking about AI language tools. 13. What can we learn from paragraph 3? A. AI translation deserves more attention. B. Language apps play a key role in marketing. C. Language translation is far beyond technology. D. Learning a different language is an uphill battle. 14. What is the key benefit of learning a language according to the passage? A. Better digital literacy. B. Improved translation skills. C. Deeper cultural confidence. D. Effective intercultural interaction. 15. What does the author imply in the last paragraph? A. AI language tools offer convenience. B. AI facilitates language learning in terms of culture. C. AI is far from perfect in helping language understanding. D. AI has achieved success in the development of language learning tools. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 There are few natural sounds more uplifting to my spirit than the bright and cheering calls and songs of black-capped chickadees (山雀). One of my morning routines is to step outside the house and listen for the voices of black-caps. There is something comforting to me in black-caps’ presence. ____16____ Sometimes they are the only birds I’ll hear on my local woodland walks and for me the forest would be a lonelier place without them. After I’d moved into a house on Anchorage’s Hillside, I placed a makeshift feeder on my home’s back. ____17____ For each, the routine was similar: dashed in, looked around, pecked (啄) at the tray, looked around again, and dashed out. Nervous little creatures, full of bright energy, they soon had me laughing at their funny way, By the time they moved on, I sensed an all-too-rare upwelling of fascination and joy. Within days, a whole new world opened up as woodland neighbors I’d never known, or even imagined, joined the black-caps at my feeders: red-breasted nuthatches, common redpolls…What was remarkable was that all of those species were common residents of the Anchorage area. ____18____ My newfound interest in birds grew quickly, surprising even me. ____19____ I visited bookstores in search of birding guidebooks. Excitedly exchanged bird descriptions with a stranger. Purchased 50-pound bags of sunflower seeds. All of this seemed very strange to a middle-aged guy who’d never been attracted by birds. Even more, I had previously judged bird watchers to be rather dull sorts. ____20____ They’ve reminded me how my world can expand and become enriched when I make the effort to pay attention. What else awaits me in our world, I wonder, that I haven’t yet discovered or noticed? A. Nature always amazed me in its own way. B. Yet in prior days and years, I had no idea. C. Black-caps are a sign of good environment. D. Within a day, black-caps accepted my invitation to dine. E. Black-caps have had a special place at the top of my affections. F. What started as mere curiosity flowered into a consuming passion. G. And much more often than not, they are heard before they’re seen. 第三部分 语言运用（共四节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I had never picked up a camera before my freshman year in 2012, when my journey to an artist began.

I, therefore, ____25____ my bank account and bought my first camera. Since then, I was amazed by the ____26____ the world has to offer. I have to ____27____, though: I, shy and chicken-hearted, tended to capture nature-related scenes, ____28____ anything to do with people. As I was ____29____ my way, I started photographing myself, the only one I felt ____30____ with. The camera soon became my strongest ____31____, serving as the tool for how I expressed myself. Gradually, I gained enough ____32____ to start taking photos of other people, greatly touched by how I was able to ____33____ the best in them through the lens (镜头). Each year, I would look back on all of the shots I did that year and would ____34____ them to the first one I ever took in my career.

Attempts to remove that oil tend to be messy and costly and are often not very effective. But scientists have found a new way to absorb that sticky pollution: cork (软木). Past research showed that cork could collect oil. Treating cork with lasers (激光) speeds up the pace at which cork picks up oil on water, reports Yuchun He, a professor at Central South University in Changsha, China. His team came across the new treatment by accident. The team had been using lasers to carve patterns into wood. These researchers hoped the patterns might help them build electronic devices from the wood. They’d never tried carving cork before. But when they did, something unexpected happened. The cork darkened. That change suggested cork can transform light into heat. They already knew that untreated cork could absorb oil. But adding heat could help. Oil is highly thick. But oil gets thinner when it warms up. And thinner oil should more easily soak (浸透) into cork or stick to its surface. The scientists had a feeling that tiny holes created by the laser might help the cork store more heat. This treated cork should warm up more quickly than usual in sunlight. And that warmth should thin nearby oil, making it easier for the cork to absorb it. To test this, they compared small, thin slices of original cork to laser-treated cork. In the dark, both corks took about 45 minutes to absorb just two drops of oil. With a camera, the researchers watched as this happened. Then, they repeated the experiment in sunlight and compared the results. In the sun, the untreated cork needed 10 minutes to absorb the oil while the laser-treated cork took just two minutes. The treated cork is an example of something that can clean up oil leaks. However, the new tests took place in a lab, so cork cleanup will need to be tested in real-world conditions too — at sea. That will determine if the technique works on a large scale and without harming water life. 8. What does “the new treatment” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A. Carving patterns into original wood. B. Collecting oil with laser-treated cork. C. Absorbing pollution with cutup wood. D. Making e-devices with laser-treated cork. 9. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The basic logic behind the finding. B. The design of the team’s experiment. C. The skill of making thick oil thinner D. The method of turning light into heat. 10. Which of the following performs best in absorbing oil? A. Untreated cork in darkness. B. Laser-treated cork in darkness. C. Untreated cork in sunlight. D. Laser-treated cork in sunlight. 11. What is likely to be the focus of the follow-up study? A. Conducting more experiments in labs. B. Testing treated cork in natural oceans. C. Starting large scale cleanup programs. D. Researching the damage to water life. 【答案】8. B 9. A 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了科学家发现用激光处理过的软木能更有效地吸收海上泄漏的石油。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段“Past research showed that cork could collect oil. Treating cork with lasers speeds up the pace at which cork picks up oil on water(过去的研究表明，软木可以收集油。用激光处理软木可以加快软木在水面上吸收油的速度)”可知，第三段中划线词the new treatment指的是用激光处理过的软木收集石油。故选B。 【9题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“The cork darkened. That change suggested cork can transform light into heat. They already knew that untreated cork could absorb oil. But adding heat could help. Oil is highly thick. But oil gets thinner when it warms up. And thinner oil should more easily soak into cork or stick to its surface.(软木变暗了。这一变化表明软木可以将光转化为热。他们已经知道未经处理的软木可以吸收石油。但增加热量会有帮助。石油非常稠。但石油变暖后会变稀。较稀的石油应该更容易浸入软木或粘在软木表面)”可知，第四段主要讲的是这一发现背后的基本逻辑。故选A。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“To test this, they compared small, thin slices of original cork to laser-treated cork. In the dark, both corks took about 45 minutes to absorb just two drops of oil. With a camera, the researchers watched as this happened. Then, they repeated the experiment in sunlight and compared the results. In the sun, the untreated cork needed 10 minutes to absorb the oil while the laser-treated cork took just two minutes.(为了验证这一点，他们将小块薄片的原始软木与激光处理过的软木进行了比较。在黑暗中，两块软木都需要大约45分钟才能吸收两滴油。研究人员用相机记录了这一过程。然后，他们在阳光下重复了这个实验，并比较了结果。在阳光下，未经处理的软木需要10分钟才能吸收石油，而激光处理过的软木只需要2分钟)”可知，在阳光下用激光处理过的软木吸收石油的效果最好。故选D。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“However, the new tests took place in a lab, so cork cleanup will need to be tested in real-world conditions too — at sea. That will determine if the technique works on a large scale and without harming water life.(然而，新的测试是在实验室进行的，因此软木清理也需要在现实世界的条件下进行测试——在海上。这将决定这项技术是否能在不伤害水生生物的情况下大规模应用)”可推知，后续研究的重点可能是在自然海洋中测试处理过的软木。故选B。 D A few days ago, I watched a video of myself talking in perfect Chinese. I’ve been studying the language on and off for only a few years, and I’m far from fluent. But there I was, pronouncing each character just as a native speaker would. “My favorite food is sushi,” I said — wo zui xihuan de shiwu shi shousi. I’d created the video using software from a Los Angeles-based artificial-intelligence start-up called HeyGen. The technology, which only needs a single selfie and a script to generate deepfake videos of real people “saying” almost anything, is a testament (证明) to the advancements in AI language tools. This got me thinking about the declining interest in language learning with fewer students enrolling in foreign language courses and the decrease of English proficiency among young people in some places. AI translation, integrated into social media and messaging platforms, seems to be everywhere. Even language-learning apps are using AI-generated content in their marketing. However, language translation is an art rather than a science. Something enormous will be lost in exchange for that convenience. As Anne, a Chinese translator said, “Building a ladder between widely different languages, such as Chinese and English, is sometimes as difficult as a doctor building a bridge in a patient’s heart,” Language learning fosters cultural competency, a skill that AI cannot simply copy. Learning a different way to speak, read, and write helps people discover new ways to see the world. No machine can replace such a profound human experience. Deborah Cohn, a language professor, emphasizes that language learning is actually about understanding and connecting with different cultures; Instead of abandoning language courses in favor of AI, some educators advocate for emphasizing the intercultural aspects of language learning. Paula Krebs of the MLA points out that even with a “universal translator”, sometimes, the greater meaning of people’s utterance (言辞) remains a mystery. In essence, while AI language tools offer convenience, they lack the depth and cultural insight that comes from human language learning. The challenge and beauty of learning a language are in understanding the cultural tapestry (织锦) that weaves through words, something AI has yet to achieve. 12. Why does the author give the example in paragraph 1? A. To promote the language software. B. To show off his Chinese language skills. C. To prove learning a language is a wasted effort. D. To encourage critical thinking about AI language tools. 13. What can we learn from paragraph 3? A. AI translation deserves more attention. B. Language apps play a key role in marketing. C. Language translation is far beyond technology. D. Learning a different language is an uphill battle. 14. What is the key benefit of learning a language according to the passage? A. Better digital literacy. B. Improved translation skills. C. Deeper cultural confidence. D. Effective intercultural interaction. 15. What does the author imply in the last paragraph? A. AI language tools offer convenience. B. AI facilitates language learning in terms of culture. C. AI is far from perfect in helping language understanding. D. AI has achieved success in the development of language learning tools. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. D 15.

After I’d moved into a house on Anchorage’s Hillside, I placed a makeshift feeder on my home’s back. ____17____ For each, the routine was similar: dashed in, looked around, pecked (啄) at the tray, looked around again, and dashed out. Nervous little creatures, full of bright energy, they soon had me laughing at their funny way, By the time they moved on, I sensed an all-too-rare upwelling of fascination and joy. Within days, a whole new world opened up as woodland neighbors I’d never known, or even imagined, joined the black-caps at my feeders: red-breasted nuthatches, common redpolls…What was remarkable was that all of those species were common residents of the Anchorage area. ____18____ My newfound interest in birds grew quickly, surprising even me. ____19____ I visited bookstores in search of birding guidebooks. Excitedly exchanged bird descriptions with a stranger. Purchased 50-pound bags of sunflower seeds. All of this seemed very strange to a middle-aged guy who’d never been attracted by birds. Even more, I had previously judged bird watchers to be rather dull sorts. ____20____ They’ve reminded me how my world can expand and become enriched when I make the effort to pay attention. What else awaits me in our world, I wonder, that I haven’t yet discovered or noticed? A. Nature always amazed me in its own way. B. Yet in prior days and years, I had no idea. C.
