2026届高三英语各地模考或重点中学(联考)阅读专项训练二十四(D篇)及答案详解
学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________
一.(2026·陕西西安·一模)The quest to extend the human lifespan has transitioned from the realm of mythological alchemy to the rigorous laboratories of biogerontology. For decades, the prevailing theory of aging focused on the accumulation of cellular damage — specifically, the shortening of telomeres, the protective caps at the ends of chromosomes that function similarly to the plastic tips on shoelaces. Every time a cell divides, these telomeres shorten, eventually leading to cellular senescence or “zombie cells” that refuse to die but cease to function, secreting inflammatory factors that degrade surrounding tissue.
However, recent breakthroughs in epigenetics suggest that aging is not merely a passive accumulation of wear and tear, but an active, regulated process driven by the loss of epigenetic information. Think of the genome as the hardware of a computer and the epigenome as the software. Over time, the software gets “corrupted” by environmental stressors, causing cells to forget their identity — a liver cell might start acting like a skin cell. Scientists are now experimenting with “Yamanaka factors,” a set of proteins that can reset the epigenetic clock, effectively turning an old cell back into a youthful stem cell without erasing its identity.
This “reprogramming” technology has shown promise in restoring vision in old mice and improving muscle regeneration. Yet, the prospect of significantly extending human longevity raises profound ethical and societal questions. If the average lifespan extends to 120 years, social security systems would collapse, and the demographic divide between the “young” and “old” would shift drastically. Furthermore, there is the risk of “geroscience inequality,” where life-extension therapies are available only to the ultra-wealthy, creating a biological caste system. Thus, the challenge is not just biological but sociopolitical: ensuring that the gift of longevity is a universal human right rather than a luxury commodity.

二.(2026·吉林·三模)Over the past two years, we have witnessed remarkable advances in artificial intelligence, yet these achievements represent only the opening act. We are now entering a new era defined by autonomous AI agents — systems that can take action independently, enhance human work, and fundamentally reshape how we live and connect. Unlike predictive AI, which analyzes data to offer forecasts and insights, or generative AI, which creates text, images, music, and code based on learned patterns, AI agents can perform tasks independently, make decisions, and even negotiate with other agents on our behalf.
In education, AI enables always-on virtual tutors. College Possible developed an AI-powered college consultant to support students where human counselors are scarce. In healthcare, AI agents alleviate administrative burdens, allowing doctors to focus on complex cases. Patients may soon have AI assistants that check on them after procedures, monitor progress, and reschedule appointments. In recruitment (招聘), Adecco Group, which handles millions of applications annually, now use AI to prequalify candidates fairly, freeing recruiters to focus on promising applicants. On a personal level, AI agents will help manage daily routines from ordering groceries to scheduling appointments.
However, such profound change also brings challenges and fears. It is essential that AI systems be built on trust, accountability, fairness, and transparency (透明度). Beyond system design, we must also invest in uniquely human skills like creativity and critical thinking. This need is especially urgent because the Agentic Era will undoubtedly transform jobs; some roles may disappear. Yet history shows that technological innovation often eliminates certain jobs while creating new ones and making tools more accessible to everyone.
If we navigate these changes responsibly — guided by trust and ethical principles — AI agents can empower us to build a future of abundance and meaningful impact. The possibilities are vast, but our approach must be careful and deliberate.

三.(2026·河北沧州·一模)Do you ever hear a friend speak on a topic with the belief that “everyone” thinks the same way? Do you often find yourself surrounded in a social media feed that is completely tailored to you and your beliefs, reading along without the immediate realization?
A social media echo chamber (回音室) is when one experiences a tailored media experience that leaves out opposing viewpoints and differing voices. Social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube connect groups of like-minded users together based on shared content preferences. As a result, people see and take in information according to our preexisting beliefs and opinions. Social media companies therefore rely on algorithms (算法) to assess our interests and flood us with information that will keep our attention. The algorithms focus on what we “like”, and “share” to keep feeding content that makes us comfortable.
In order to truly get access to all information and to evaluate our media, we must give ourselves the opportunity to step out of our comfort zone. While this becomes increasingly challenging, there are things we can do. The first step is to improve your media consumption sources. Adding in a few media sources with differing opinions will allow you to at least understand what people are saying outside of your echo chamber. Next, read each thing you see with a critical eye. Make sure that each thing you accept as truth is truly fact. Lastly, attempt to search out reliable new sources that are known for trying their best to leave out false information. By accepting that our media buffet on social media is a product of our present beliefs and opinions, we can work to make sure we are not simply stuck in a social media echo chamber.
9.What is the main purpose of the author’s two questions at the beginning?
A.To criticize social media algorithms.
B.To suggest solutions for diverse information access.
C.To introduce the concept of an echo chamber.
D.To emphasize the importance of fact-checking.
10.What is a result of the social media echo chamber?
A.People contact like-minded online users effectively.
B.People keep reading for more differing viewpoints.
C.People rely on algorithms to evaluate their interests.
D.People only get information confirming their beliefs.
11.Which of the following can help us get out of the echo chamber?
A.Criticizing fake news on social media.
B.Exposing ourselves to opposing voices.
C.Researching primary sources of information.
D.Accepting our present beliefs and opinions.
12.What is the purpose of the text?
A.To call on people to use algorithms frequently.
B.To ask people not to take in information blindly.
C.To promote the use of various social media sites.
D.To inform people of new technology developments.
四.(2026·陕西榆林·三模)Technology has reshaped our world in ways unimaginable just a few decades ago. We have seen amazing breakthroughs in areas like medicine, communication, and artificial intelligence (AI). But this power has come with its own set of risks and moral challenges.
One of the most pressing ethical (伦理上的) concerns in the modern age is the rise of AI, which has permeated (渗透) almost every industry, from healthcare to finance, to self-driving cars. It promises to revolutionize the world in ways that could benefit humanity — from curing diseases to solving complex global problems. But alongside these possibilities, AI also brings significant risks, many of which have ethical implications.
One primary concern with AI is the question of decision-making. As AI systems become more advanced, they are increasingly entrusted with making decisions that impact human lives. For example, AI is used in autonomous vehicles, which are expected to make split-second decisions in emergency situations. If an accident is unavoidable, should the AI prioritize the safety of its passengers, pedestrians (行人), or the greater good? These are questions with no easy answers, as they raise issues of morality, accountability, and fairness.
Besides, there are concerns about AI’s potential to replace human labor. Automation powered by AI could lead to mass unemployment and deepen societal inequalities. While automation promises to make processes more efficient and reduce costs, it raises an ethical question of whether it is just to allow machines to replace human workers, particularly in industries where jobs are already not enough.
The most chilling ethical issue surrounding AI is the possibility of creating systems that can act with complete autonomy, without human intervention. Some argue that this could lead to the creation of “superintelligent” AI that could surpass human intelligence, potentially posing an existential threat to humanity.
While technological advancement is essential for progress, it must not come at the expense of human values and ethical principles. Governments, corporations, and individuals all have roles to play in ensuring that technology is developed and employed in an ethical manner.
13.How does the author show the concern with AI in paragraph 3?
A.By listing an example. B.By quoting AI experts.
C.By making comparisons. D.By referring to historical data.
14.Why is AI-powered automation worrying?
A.It makes processes complex. B.It may threaten people’s jobs.
C.It blocks industries’ innovation. D.It creates a less competitive society.
15.What does the underlined word “chilling” mean in paragraph 5?
A.Amusing. B.Simplified. C.Unknown. D.Frightening.
16.What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A.To provide solutions to problems caused by AI.
B.To show how AI affects our daily life in a positive way.
C.To remind us to slow down the development of technology.
D.To warn us of moral concerns with technological advancement.
五.(2026·河北廊坊·一模)In his column, the columnist Anthony Piccione argues just that if we regard the arts subject as important to a child's education as math or science, arts education should be required in schools just as those classes are.
I believe deeply in the significance of arts education, which indeed proved transformative to my own life. But I have serious misgivings about seeking to demonstrate the value of something by making it “compulsory” (必修的), which I believe shows a lack of respect for the autonomy and personal thought of our students, and is almost never what tends to convince them of a subject’ s value to their lives.
Participating in the arts requires voluntary personal investment in a way that the study of no other compulsory academic subject really does. Part of what made theater so valuable to me when I was a teenager was that for once, it was something I was choosing to do because I wanted it. For once, it wasn't something I was being forced into or that someone else had decided was for my own good.
I don't see evidence that students need to be required to study the arts or participate in them. Nor am I convinced by the argument that the future of the professional theater is in danger from lack of compulsory arts education. How often do we already talk about the large number of theater artists coming out of art schools or departments?
The crisis of arts education simply is not that not enough students are being forced into it. It's that even when interest of students in low-income communities is strong, underfunded programs, and insufficient school resources prevent them from developing skills or building professional networks. I worry very much when it seems the only vocabulary we have for how much we value something and want others to value it too, is that it needs to be made “compulsory”. And I worry what we'd be teaching students about the arts we were to approach them that way.
17.How is the topic introduced?
A.By quoting an opinion. B.By telling arts stories.
C.By comparing subjects. D.By introducing a writer.
18.What does the author think compulsory arts education harmful to?
A.Arts' transformative capacity. B.Arts' need for personal efforts.
C.Students’ natural gift for arts. D.Students' independent thinking.
19.Why does the author cite her teenage experience?
A.To demonstrate the popularity of arts. B.To stress the educational value of arts.
C.To show the importance of free choice. D.To prove the positive impact of theater.
20.What is the real crisis in arts education according to the author?
A.Lack of access for poor students. B.Undervalued programs in schools.
C.Reliance on a compulsory method. D.Disinterest in arts training and jobs.
六.(2026·河南濮阳·一模)If you’re the parent of a child or teenager, you may want to learn about social psychologist Jonathan Haidt, or at the very least his wildly influential book, The Anxious Generation.
In sum, the book argues that the rise of smartphones and social media over the past decade and a half has rewired the brains of young people, leading to a mental health crisis. Haidt’s arguments and approach have been challenged by critics (批评者), many of whom point out that his work doesn’t refer to the many other potential factors at play affecting mental health. Yet, The Anxious Generation has undeniably had a significant impact. Haidt is leading a movement, which we have already seen translate into legislation (立法) in many states around the U.S. limiting the use of phones in schools.
As the parent of a 10-year-old and a 14-year-old, I can say that not a week has gone by in nearly a decade that the use of certain forms of technology and their applications (iPhones, Chromebooks and tablets; video games, social media and YouTube) hasn’t led to some form of argument or disagreement. It’s not that these technologies are all bad, but their addictive design, and the lack of cultural norms and especially regulations around such devices, have shaped people’s use of them in often damaging and destructive ways. Endless elements of day-to-day life, including learning and socialization especially for young people, have been negatively impacted.
While it is often exciting to have the world at your fingertips — my teenager has learned how to handmake pasta with the help of online videos, and I have happily spent precious hours online watching interviews of some of my favorite writers — it’s hard to deny the increasing losses when real-life trial-and-error gives way to passive viewing. For many, the balance is clearly off.
What seems especially amazing about The Anxious Generation is that it can get people thinking more critically about the products that shape their everyday lives. The book feels like an important antidote (良方) to the daily pull and messaging of the online world.
21.What do many critics say about The Anxious Generation?
A.It has underestimated the impact of social media.
B.It has led to unnecessary legislation in many states.
C.It has placed too much blame on technology companies.
D.It has ignored other possible causes of mental health issues.
22.What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A.Various types of social media. B.Negative impacts of technologies.
C.Unwise ways to use smartphones. D.Conflicts between parents and kids.
23.What does the author mean by “the balance is clearly off” in paragraph 4?
A.Schools are not doing enough to limit phone use.
B.Technology companies refuse to change their designs.
C.Passive screen time has replaced real-life experiences.
D.Parents are losing control of their kids’ online activities.
24.What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A.To recommend a book. B.To criticize a view in a book.
C.To share parenting challenges. D.To introduce the history of technology.
