B At 14,I met Mrs.Korthaus,a 4-foot-10 English teacher at my rural Pennsylvania Catholic high school with an infectious,fearless spirit.Married nearly 40 and a latecomer to teaching,she moved to our industrial town for her husband's job,where women had few career options.Before embarking on her teaching career,she had spent years working in corporate life,which made her financially independent.These extraordinary experiences shaped her remarkable life.And maybe mine. She gave me a judgment-free space to learn from youthful mistakes and discover my true potential.Beyond teaching me literature and journalism-skills that fueled my career as a writer -she modeled how to live a fulfilling,self-driven life,which was rare for a woman I'd known then. 第3页/共9页 Growing up in a small town,I struggled to imagine a life beyond it,even fearing success despite good grades;I'd have stayed forever if I could.Mrs.Korthaus changed that. With sculpted cheekbones,straightforward speech and great enthusiasm,she celebrated students with Oprah-like joy,cheering,"YOU get an A!"We flocked to her for college recommendation letters,for she could help us see our own strengths.She opened a window to the world for us small-town kids through writing,literature and communications.Besides,she organized various after-school activities,showing us her passion for life. Famously standing on a chair to state her point,she'd thunder "The hu-MAN-uh-teez!",wave her fist in the air like Braveheart.To her,the humanities revealed human dignity and the universal need to feel worthy,in oneself and others.She never demanded attention;her sheer joy of learning inspired it.She saw every student deeply,understanding that behavior reflects a child's sense of being loved-a gift that made us thrive in her class and in life. More than 25 years after graduation,after building a writing career away and moving back, Istill consider myselfher student.It's with her as my clear role model that I answered an unexpected life call forever shaped by her wisdom and spirit. 24.What did Mrs.Korthaus provide for the author during high school? A.Various ways to improve grades. B.Financial support for a writing career. C.Guaranteed college admission recommendation. D.A safe environment for growth and self-discovery. 25.Why did Mrs.Korthaus thunder"The hu-MAN-uh-teez!"? A.To share her sheer joy of learning. B.To attract students'attention in a funny way. C.To highlight her emphasis on the humanities. D.To show her gift for making students thrive in life. 26.Which could best describe Mrs.Korthaus? A.Traditional and devoted B.Passionate and humorous. C.Empowering and nurturing. D.Inspiring and demanding. 27.What is the author's purpose in writing the text? A.To recall her growth as a writer. B.To remember a life-changing teacher. C.To introduce a way of career planning.D.To explain the importance of humanities. 0 The United Nations estimates that some 40%of the world's languages face extinction.Can artificial intelligence slow this trend?Global tech giants are optimistic,yet the reality is not that simple.Generative AI has made great progress in breaking down language and cultural barriers,but it has big shortcomings in understanding"low-resource languages"-native and regional dialects lacking valuable digital content. A Stanford report found most major large-language models (LLMs)perform poorly in non- English,especially resource-scarce dialect.This is a cultural loss and a technological blind spot, with the core issue being a lack of high-quality data.The most powerful LLMs need huge amounts of training material,mostly in English.This leads AI to unify culture and spread Anglo-centric views, a problem that researchers have long complained about. AI's multilingual weaknesses bring more than digital exclusion.Studies show low-resource languages can get past its safety guardrails.Inappropriate questions in Thai or Swahili failed to 第4页/共9页 trigger AI's safety mechanisms,unlike those in English or Chinese.Worse still,anyone can translate dangerous requests into such languages to exploit AI's flaws,making this a global safety problem, not just a linguistic one. A push for independent AI has grown especially in linguistically diverse Asia to preserve cultural distinctions in AI tools:Singapore's SEA-LION model covers over a dozen local languages, and Malaysia's ILMU model recognizes regional cues.These efforts have revealed for an AI model to truly represent a group of people,even the smallest details in training material matter. True language preservation depends on community-led efforts,not just technology.Indonesian researchers tried to save the Orang Rimba language with Meta's AI but faced limited datasets- only deeper community participation can solve this.New Zealand's Te Hiku Media set a good example:working with Maori elders,it built a community-owned language database,not one controlled by big tech.This is the only sustainable way-without community involvement,AI will not save dying languages,but help bury them 28.What is the major problem of AI in protecting dying languages? A.It makes little progress in breaking cultural barriers. B.It cannot create any digital content for native dialects. C.It lacks high-quality training data for low-resource languages. D.It erases cultural diversity and promotes Anglo-centric ideas. 29.What can we learn about AI's safety guardrails from the text?s A.They bring more than digital exclusion. B.They fail to protect English digital users. C.They work well in handling all linguistic requests. D.They can be bypassed by low-resource languages. 30.How does the author present Asia's independent AI efforts? A.By giving examples. B.By quoting an expert. C.By providing statistics. D.By making a comparison. 31.What can be a suitable title for the text? A.AI:A Powerful Tool for Dying Language Preservation B.Independent AI in Asia:The Key to Solving Language Crisis C.Low-resource Languages:A Big Challenge to AI Development D.Dying Languages:AI's limitations and the vital community role D You leave an hour of online surfing with the sense that the world is falling apart.In the real world,however,a neighbor you disagree with politically helps you start your car.The dissonance is no accident.It is how today's Internet works. To better understand this gap,researchers surveyed 1,090 adults and found that people dramatically overestimate how common harmful behavior on the Internet is.On Reddit,participants thought harmful commenters were 13 times more common,estimating 43%of users post harmful content,while the actual figure is just 3%.Most offensive posts come from a small group of highly active users,whose outsized posts shape public beliefs,creating the"majority illusion"that makes this minority seem like the norm,drowning out the silent majority. Our brains are wired to notice threats and moral breaks-negative content sticks in our minds Additionally,social media algorithms()prioritize content that causes strong reactions to keep users engaged,with falsehoods spreading faster than truth.Bot networks(僵尸网s络)add to the 第5页/共9页 noise:it has been reported that bad bots make up roughly a third of global web traffic,misleading what trends and who appears popular. Measuring online harmful content is tricky,as automated tools often miss unobvious aggressive remarks.But what matters more is not "how harmful is the Internet,"but what ordinary users perceive as normal.Social psychologists call this dynamic"pluralistic ignorance":people privately reject harmful norms but go along with them publicly.This misconception formed online creates a dangerous gap,fueling public distrust,preventing public participation,and lowering moral standards-if we think"everyone is awful,"we're less likely to be kind. While there is no silver bullet,practical steps-rooted in policy and personal awareness- can narrow the gap.The key lies in recognizing online engagement doesn't equal approval:skip "most engaging"feeds and ground our views in actual world connections.Imagine a public square where the loudest few don't seize the microphone-disagreement remains,but the air resounds with daily life:neighbors helping start cars,strangers holding doors.Online,we can make that reality visible again. 32.What does the underlined word"dissonance"in Paragraph I probably mean? A.Disorder. B.Prejudice. C.Contrast. D.Debate. 33.What does the"majority illusion"refer to in the text? A.A false impression. B.A harmful behavior. C.An overestimated post. D.A minority of commenters. 34.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A.Why global web traffic misleads people. B.Why the minority feels like the majority. C.How we identify online harmful content. D.What harm online misconception causes. 35.What is the author's suggestion in the last paragraph? A.Acting like the loudest few. B.Improving moral standards. C.Avoiding online engagement. D.Valuing real-life interactions. 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。 Practical Rules of Gardening You may find nothing is worse than a garden that won't grow.You're not alone-many gardeners face the same struggle.36Either way,these problems can make a garden truly annoying.Check out these tips if you're sick of a problematic garden and want to see your efforts pay off.

It's best to group plants with similar maintenance needs.People tend to be with others like themselves,as we all know.40 Plants that need good drainage should be planted together.They should not be mixed in with plants that need very wet soil.Keep this in mind:Group them by their growth and care needs.

Suddenly,I felt something hard on the floor beneath the couch.I reached down and pulled it out.It was a wooden box with fancy designs carved into the sides."Chess?"I said,surprised."Yeah, I used to play.Do you play?"Grandpa asked."Never,"I answered.Grandpa fell quiet for a moment, staring at the window and still tapping his legs.Then he suggested that since we had time,he could teach me how to play.I agreed casually. Grandpa opened the box,a smell of wood polish rising from inside.He taught me about all the pieces and showed me how they moved:the king could move one square in any direction,and the game was won by trapping him;pawns()moved straight forward;knights (moved in an L-shape and could leap over other pieces...I was amazed at how patient he was.
