Artificial intelligence (AI) is no longer just a subject of science fiction movies. Today, AI is widely used in many areas of our daily lives, often without us even noticing it.
One obvious example is voice assistants like Siri and Alexa. These AI-powered tools can understand your spoken orders, answer questions, set reminders and even control smart home devices. Another common use is in online shopping. When you search for a product, algorithms analyze your interests and past behavior to suggest items you might like. AI also plays a key role in healthcare. It can help doctors examine medical images, predict diseases and even suggest treatments.
However, the rise of AI also raises some concerns. Will it take away many jobs? Is it safe to depend on machines for important decisions? Experts believe that while AI will change the job market, it will also create new opportunities. The key is to learn how to work with AI, rather than fear it.
Next time you use your phone or shop online, remember—AI is right there with you.
31. What does the underlined word “algorithms” probably mean in Chinese?
A. 数据库 B. 算法 C. 网络
32. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a use of AI?
A. Controlling smart home devices.
B. Suggesting items when shopping online.
C. Teaching students in the classroom.
33. According to the passage, what can AI do in healthcare?
A. Replace doctors completely.
B. Help examine medical images.
C. Stop diseases from spreading.
34. What is experts’ opinion on AI and jobs?
A. AI will take away all human jobs.
B. AI will create new opportunities.
C. People should completely depend on AI.
35. What does the writer want to tell us?
A. AI is dangerous and should be stopped.
B. AI is everywhere and we should learn to work with it.
C. Voice assistants are the most important invention.
B
I still remember the first time I stood beside a swimming pool. The water looked deep, dark and terrifying. I was eight, and all my friends had already learned to swim. They laughed at me for sitting on the steps while they splashed happily.
My mom found me a coach, Mr. Lin, who was patient but strict. “Water isn’t your enemy,” he said. “It’s a friend you haven’t met yet.” The first few lessons were a disaster. I swallowed water, cried twice and almost gave up. But Mr. Lin never let me quit. “Face your fear one step at a time,” he encouraged.
Weeks turned into months. Slowly, I learned to float, then kick, then move forward. By the end of the summer, I could swim across the pool without stopping. That moment, I felt as if I had wings in the water.
Today, swimming is my favorite sport. I even joined the school team. Looking back, I realize that the biggest reward wasn’t learning how to swim — it was discovering that I could overcome something that once terrified me. That lesson has helped me face many other challenges in life.
36. How did the writer feel when he first saw the swimming pool?
A. Excited. B. Nervous and scared. C. Angry.
37. What did Mr. Lin tell the writer about water?
A. It is dangerous. B. It is a friend. C. It should be feared.
38. What can we infer from the third paragraph?
A. The writer made slow but steady progress.
B. The writer finally gave up.
C. Mr. Lin was not helpful.
39. What is the biggest lesson the writer learned?
A. How to win a swimming competition.
B. How to make new friends.
C. That he could overcome his fears.
40. Which could be the best title for the passage?
A. My Strict Coach B. Learning to Face Fear C. The Joys of Summer
C
阅读下面短文,根据短文内容完成表格,每空一词。
Food waste is a serious global problem. Every year, a huge amount of food ends up in the trash while many people go hungry. Here are some practical ways to reduce food waste at home.
First, plan your meals before you go shopping. Make a detailed shopping list and buy only what you need. Second, store food properly. For example, keep fruits and vegetables in the right parts of your fridge to keep them fresh longer. Third, learn to read “best-before” labels correctly. These labels tell you about quality, not safety. Many foods are still safe to eat after the date. Fourth, be creative with leftovers. Instead of throwing them away, try to turn them into new dishes. Finally, if you have extra food that you can’t finish, consider donating it to local food banks or charities.
By following these tips, you can help protect the environment, save money and make a difference.

第二部分 笔试(共六大题,满分95分)
Ⅰ. 单项填空(共20小题;每小题1分,满分20分)
从A、B、C三个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
1. —Would you like to climb the mountain with me this weekend?
—I’d love to, but I have an important meeting to ________.
A. attend B. join C. take part in
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:——这个周末你愿意和我一起去爬山吗?——我很想去,但我有一个重要的会议要参加。
attend出席;join加入;take part in参加。“参加会议”的固定搭配是attend a meeting,应填attend。
2. The number of students in our school ________ about 2,000, and a number of them ________ from the countryside.
A. is; are B. are; is C. is; is
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:我们学校学生的数量大约是2000人,且他们中的许多人来自农村。
根据第一空前的短语“The number of”可知,该结构意为“……的数量”,中心词是“number”,表示一个确定的数值。该结构作主语时谓语动词应用单数形式,故第一空填is。根据第二空前的短语“a number of”可知,该结构意为“许多;一些”,相当于“many”,起形容词作用。该结构作主语时谓语动词应用复数形式,故第二空填are。应填is; are。
3. —I wonder ________.
—Yes, it tastes really good.
A. if does the dish taste delicious
B. whether the dish tastes delicious
C. that the dish tastes delicious
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:——我想知道这道菜是否美味。——是的,它尝起来真的很好。
根据答语“Yes”可知,宾语从句是由一般疑问句转化而来,表示“是否”,应用if或whether引导;宾语从句中应使用陈述语序。
4. It’s high time that we ________ effective measures to protect the environment.
A. take B. took C. will take
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:是我们采取有效措施保护环境的时候了。
在“It’s high time that…”句型中,从句谓语动词需用一般过去时(虚拟语气),表示对现在或将来的建议或催促,意为“早该做某事了”。因此,空格处应填动词的过去式“took”。
5. ________ the difficult math problem, she turned to her teacher for help.
A. Not solving B. Not having solved C. Having not solved
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:没有解决这个数学难题,她向老师求助。
“solve”这个动作发生在谓语动作“turned to her teacher for help”之前,且与主语“she”之间为主动关系,所以用现在分词的完成式作状语,其否定形式是在现在分词前加not,即“Not having solved”。
6. The scientist, along with his assistants, ________ devoted to the research of renewable energy.
A. is B. are C. have been
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:这位科学家,连同他的助手们,都致力于可再生能源的研究。
主语后接“along with his assistants,”短语时,谓语动词的单复数由前面的主语决定,本句主语是The scientist,为单数第三人称,所以谓语动词用单数形式is。
7. —Could you tell me ________ the nearest hospital is?
—Walk straight on and you’ll see it.
A. where B. how C. what
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:——你能告诉我最近的医院在哪里?——直走,你就会看到它。
where在哪里;how怎样;what什么。根据答句“Walk straight on and you’ll see it.”可知,前面是询问医院的位置,选项A的“where”符合题意。
8. The movie was so moving that I couldn’t help ________ when I watched it.
A. cry B. crying C. to cry
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:这部电影太感人了,我看的时候忍不住哭了。
根据“couldn’t help”可知,此处考查固定搭配“couldn’t help doing sth”,意为“忍不住做某事”,应填动名词crying。
9. I wish I ________ enough money to travel around the world one day.
A. have B. will have C. had
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:我希望有一天我有足够的钱去环游世界。
根据“I wish I...enough money to travel around the world one day.”可知,此处表达的是一种愿望,在wish引导的宾语从句中,当表示与现在事实相反的愿望时,从句要用一般过去时,have的过去式是had,所以此处应填had。
10. —The light in his office is still on. He ________ be working late.
—He ________ be. He has already gone home.
A. must; can’t B. may; mustn’t C. can; shouldn’t
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:——他办公室的灯还亮着。他一定在加班工作。——他不可能在。他已经回家了。
must一定;can’t不可能;may可能;mustn’t禁止;can能;shouldn’t不应该。根据“The light in his office is still on”可知,灯亮着是客观依据,表示肯定的推测用must;根据“He has already gone home”可知,他已回家,表示不可能的推测用can’t。
11. Not until the teacher came in ________ the noise in the classroom.
A. did the students stop B. the students stopped C. stopped the students
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:直到老师进来,学生们才停止了教室里的喧闹。
“not until”引导时间状语从句,置于句首时,主句要用部分倒装结构,即将助动词提到主语前面。本句中“came in”表明句子时态为一般过去时,所以主句部分倒装时应借助助动词“did”,然后将主语“the students”和实义动词“stop”依次放在后面,即“did the students stop”。
12. ________ by the police, the thief had no choice but to tell the truth.
A. Surrounding B. Surrounded C. Having surrounded
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:被警察包围了,小偷别无选择只能说出真相。
根据“by the police”可知,小偷是被警察包围,此处应用过去分词表被动,所以应用Surrounded。
13. She prefers to stay at home reading rather than ________ shopping.
A. go B. going C. to go
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:她宁愿待在家里看书也不愿去购物。
根据“prefers to stay at home reading rather than...”可知,此处是“prefer to do...rather than do...”结构,表示“宁愿做……而不愿做……”,应使用动词原形go。
14. It is the third time that I ________ to Hainan, and I still find it fascinating.
A. have been B. am C. was
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:这是我第三次去海南,我仍然觉得它很迷人。
在“It is the+序数词+time that...”句型中,that从句需用现在完成时,强调动作从过去持续到现在的累计次数。
15. The expression on her face suggested that she ________ the result.
A. knew B. knows C. had known
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:她脸上的表情表明她已经知道了结果。
句中suggest表示“表明、暗示”,而非“建议”,此时宾语从句不需要使用虚拟语气,时态需与主句保持一致;主句谓语“suggested”是一般过去式,
宾语从句要和主句时态一致,用一般过去时,表示动作同时发生。
16. —I think it’s useless to argue with him.
—That’s true. It’s like talking to a ________.
A. wall B. hero C. bridge
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:——我觉得跟他争论没用。——确实如此。就像跟墙说话一样。
wall墙;hero英雄;bridge桥。根据“I think it’s useless to argue with him.”可知,和他争论没用,所以就像对着一堵墙说话一样,墙不会回应,应填wall。
17. The company provides ________ for its employees such as free lunch and gym membership.
A. benefits B. instructions C. documents
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:公司为其员工提供福利,如免费午餐和健身房会员资格。
benefits福利;instructions指令;documents文件。根据“such as free lunch and gym membership”可知,此处表示公司为员工提供“福利”,应填benefits。
18. ________ hard you may try, you cannot finish the task within an hour.
A. Whatever B. However C. No matter
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:无论你多么努力,你都不可能在一小时内完成任务。
Whatever无论什么;However无论多么;No matter通常需要与what、who、how等疑问词连用,表示“不管……”。根据“hard you may try”可知,此处表示“无论多么努力”,应填However。
19. The book, the cover of ________ is missing, belongs to my sister.
A. which B. that C. whose
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:那本封皮丢失的书是我姐姐的。
分析句子结构可知,本句为定语从句,先行词是“The book”是物;which作为关系代词指代物,用在介词of之后表示所属关系。the cover of which=whose cover。所以用关系代词which引导定语从句,
20. —I’ll take the driving test tomorrow.
—________!
A. Good luck B. Congratulations C. That’s right
【答案】A

【导语】本文讲述了作者从小对星空着迷,尽管父母希望其成为医生,但作者高中毕业后毅然决定学习天体物理学,最终成为顶级太空机构研究员,并获得父母理解与支持的故事。
【21题详解】
句意:然而,我的父母希望我成为一名医生。他们认为这是一个更实用的职业。
上文提到父母希望“我”成为医生,下文说“我”尝试专注生物但心不在此,可知父母认为医生职业更“实用”,practical“实用的”符合语境。interesting“有趣的”、dangerous“危险的”均与父母希望“我”选择医生职业的动机无关。
【22题详解】
句意:我试图专注于生物学,但我的心始终在星星上。
上文提到“我”被星空吸引,祖父是天文学家,此处“but”转折说明“我”的心不在生物学而在“星星”,stars“星星”符合。plants“植物”、paintings“绘画”均与前文星空主题无关。
【23题详解】
句意:高中毕业后,我做了一个大胆的决定:我申请学习天体物理学而不是医学。
下文提到“我”申请天体物理学专业,这是“我”做出的“决定”,decision“决定”符合。promise“承诺”、suggestion“建议”均与选择专业的行为不符。
【24题详解】
句意:我的父母一开始很失望,但我向他们保证我会尽最大努力。
上文父母希望“我”当医生,而“我”选择天体物理学,父母自然会“失望”,disappointed“失望的”符合。excited“兴奋的”、surprised“惊讶的”均不能准确体现父母对“我”选择专业的情绪。
【25题详解】
句意:大学很有挑战性,但每次我通过望远镜观察时,我都感到鼓舞。
上文说大学有挑战性,下文“but”转折说明观察星空让“我”感到“鼓舞”,inspired“受鼓舞的”符合。exhausted“疲惫的”、confused“困惑的”均与观察星空带来的积极感受不符。
【26题详解】
句意:多年后,我成为了一家顶级太空机构的研究员。
下文提到“我”成为研究员,结合前文天体物理学专业,可知是在“太空机构”工作,agency“机构”符合。hospital“医院”、university“大学”均与太空研究无关。
【27题详解】
句意:一天晚上,我邀请他们去天文台。当他们凝视星星时,我父亲说:“儿子,我们为你感到骄傲。”
上文父母最终理解“我”的热情,此处父亲的话表明他们为“我”感到“骄傲”,proud“骄傲的”符合。tired“疲惫的”、ashamed“羞愧的”均与语境不符。
【28题详解】
句意:那一刻让所有的努力都变得值得。
上文父母为“我”骄傲,此处说明努力“值得”,worthwhile“值得的”符合。difficult“困难的”、annoying“恼人的”均与努力带来的积极结果不符。
【29题详解】
句意:我明白了追随梦想可能很困难,但回报远远大于困难。
上文说努力值得,此处“but”转折说明“回报”大于困难,rewards“回报”符合。pains“痛苦”、risks“风险”均与语境中强调的积极结果不符。
【30题详解】
句意:永远不要让别人扼杀你对真正热爱的事物的热情。
上文鼓励追随梦想,此处说明不要让别人“扼杀”热情,kill“扼杀”符合。show“展示”、teach“教导”均与阻止热情的语境不符。
Ⅲ. 阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
阅读下列三篇短文,根据短文内容按要求答题。
A
Artificial intelligence (AI) is no longer just a subject of science fiction movies. Today, AI is widely used in many areas of our daily lives, often without us even noticing it.
One obvious example is voice assistants like Siri and Alexa. These AI-powered tools can understand your spoken orders, answer questions, set reminders and even control smart home devices. Another common use is in online shopping. When you search for a product, algorithms analyze your interests and past behavior to suggest items you might like. AI also plays a key role in healthcare. It can help doctors examine medical images, predict diseases and even suggest treatments.
However, the rise of AI also raises some concerns. Will it take away many jobs? Is it safe to depend on machines for important decisions? Experts believe that while AI will change the job market, it will also create new opportunities. The key is to learn how to work with AI, rather than fear it.
Next time you use your phone or shop online, remember—AI is right there with you.

【31题详解】
第二段第四句:“When you search for a product, algorithms analyze your interests and past behavior to suggest items you might like.”,说明“algorithms”会分析你的兴趣爱好和过往行为,从而为你推荐你可能喜欢的商品,结合功能与语境可知“algorithms”意为“算法”。
【32题详解】
第二段明确提到:“These AI-powered tools can...even control smart home devices. Another common use is in online shopping.”,说明提到AI用途有:控制智能设备、网购推荐,全文未提到在课堂教学生。
【33题详解】
第二段明确提到:“AI also plays a key role in healthcare. It can help doctors examine medical images…”,说明AI可帮助检查医学影像。
【34题详解】

B
I still remember the first time I stood beside a swimming pool. The water looked deep, dark and terrifying. I was eight, and all my friends had already learned to swim. They laughed at me for sitting on the steps while they splashed happily.
My mom found me a coach, Mr. Lin, who was patient but strict. “Water isn’t your enemy,” he said. “It’s a friend you haven’t met yet.” The first few lessons were a disaster. I swallowed water, cried twice and almost gave up. But Mr. Lin never let me quit. “Face your fear one step at a time,” he encouraged.
Weeks turned into months. Slowly, I learned to float, then kick, then move forward. By the end of the summer, I could swim across the pool without stopping. That moment, I felt as if I had wings in the water.
Today, swimming is my favorite sport. I even joined the school team. Looking back, I realize that the biggest reward wasn’t learning how to swim — it was discovering that I could overcome something that once terrified me. That lesson has helped me face many other challenges in life.
36. How did the writer feel when he first saw the swimming pool?
A. Excited. B. Nervous and scared. C. Angry.
37. What did Mr. Lin tell the writer about water?
A. It is dangerous. B. It is a friend. C. It should be feared.
38. What can we infer from the third paragraph?
A. The writer made slow but steady progress.
B. The writer finally gave up.
C. Mr. Lin was not helpful.
39. What is the biggest lesson the writer learned?
A. How to win a swimming competition.
B. How to make new friends.
C. That he could overcome his fears.
40. Which could be the best title for the passage?
A. My Strict Coach B. Learning to Face Fear C. The Joys of Summer
【答案】36. B 37. B 38. A 39. C 40. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,讲述作者从害怕游泳到学会游泳,最终懂得要勇敢面对恐惧、克服困难的成长经历。
【36题详解】
第一段指出:“The water looked deep, dark and terrifying.”,直接说明作者第一次看到游泳池时紧张又害怕。
【37题详解】
第二段指出:“Water isn’t your enemy. It’s a friend you haven’t met yet.”,直接说明林老师告诉作者水是朋友。

【40题详解】
全文围绕作者克服对水的恐惧、学会直面困难展开,核心主旨是学会面对恐惧,B项“Learning to Face Fear”可作最佳标题。

Food waste is a serious global problem. Every year, a huge amount of food ends up in the trash while many people go hungry. Here are some practical ways to reduce food waste at home.
First, plan your meals before you go shopping. Make a detailed shopping list and buy only what you need. Second, store food properly. For example, keep fruits and vegetables in the right parts of your fridge to keep them fresh longer. Third, learn to read “best-before” labels correctly. These labels tell you about quality, not safety. Many foods are still safe to eat after the date. Fourth, be creative with leftovers. Instead of throwing them away, try to turn them into new dishes. Finally, if you have extra food that you can’t finish, consider donating it to local food banks or charities.
