B When nine-year-old Ella Grace Rossen and Cash Daniels met at Ocean Heroes Bootcamp, in the busy halls of the University of British Columbia, they immediately connected. “We knew we could make a difference together,” says Cash. “We instantly became best friends.” Within a short time, their meeting transformed into action, birthing the Cleanup Kids — a youth-led nonprofit determined to make waves in environmental conservation. Ella’s passion for the environment started with an early love of sharks (“My bedtime stories were shark books”) and many first-hand encounters with collecting plastic waste along the shores of Vero Beach. For Cash, the inspiration came at just seven years old, when a single plastic straw (吸管) on the beach caught his eye. That’s when he became aware of the crisis facing thousands of turtles (海龟) , seabirds and other wildlife, which risk death from consuming thrown-away plastic. Now they mostly communicate through online meetings, co-leading the Cleanup Kids, which now has more than 200 members worldwide and counting. Member responsibilities include conducting at least one cleanup per month, documenting and photographing the collected garbage, counting every piece to contribute toward the goal of collecting one million pieces of garbage by year’s end, and sorting and recycling items. It’s demanding work, but it hasn’t gone unrecognized. In 2022, out of more than 700 applicants from across North America, Cash and Ella were chosen to receive the Gloria Barron Prize for Young Heroes. This annual award recognizes exceptional young leaders between ages eight and 18 who have made a substantial impact both on people and the environment. “My hope for the Cleanup Kids is that it’s not hundreds of kids, it’s thousands of kids who join us,” says Ella. “Remember that kids may be only a small part of the population, but we’re100 percent of the future.” 4. How did Ella and Cash feel during their first meeting? A. At a loss. B. Full of regret. C. Calm. D. Bonded. 5. What made Ella and Cash start the Cleanup Kids? A. Their concern for sea life. B. A beach cleanup project. C. A shark protection camp. D. Their worries about plastic pollution. 6. What can we infer about the members of the Cleanup Kids? A. They have gained a high reputation. B. They have received formal training. C. They take on challenging tasks. D. They focus mainly on recycling. 7. What does Ella expect of the Cleanup Kids? A. It’ll receive more awards. B. It’ll attract more members. C. It’ll expand beyond America. D. It’ll inspire other green groups. C Have you ever been invited to a fancy event and had nothing to wear? Perhaps you raced out to a store and bought a dress that cost a small fortune, looked great for a night, but ended up forgotten in the closet. Unluckily, this happens all too often for many women who feel they cannot wear the same outfit (全套服装) to different events. Not only is it expensive, but it’s wasteful, too. A new Toronto company hopes to change this. Following the philosophy of the sharing economy, Boro has created an online store where women can rent high-end dresses, bags, and jackets for up to 10 days at reasonable prices (starting at $30) , and lenders can make money off the beautiful items they’ve bought — 50 percent of the net revenue (净收入) from each rental. From Boro’s website: “Lending allows you to keep ownership of your item, so you have the choice of wearing it again or doing what you want with it in the future. Plus, by lending out your item on Boro, you can earn more than you would through selling it. Getting extra closet space is also a big plus.” Environmental protection is another reason mentioned on the website. Fashion uses resources and produces pollution at a rate that’s second on Earth only to the oil industry. While Boro’s pieces can hardly be considered “fast fashion” — too expensive and well-made — they are still highly specialized, stylized clothes that do not typically get the wear they should for the resources required to make them. Sharing with others is a good way to address this. Chris Cundari and Natalie Pesta, who launched Boro, hope that it will reshape fashion: “Access has become the new ownership — Uber for cars, Airbnb for housing, Netflix for movies, and Boro for closets... We believe that quality should always be chosen over quantity, and what you wear should give you a killer look without killing the planet. We believe that you should rent the outfit and own the moment.” 8. What does the underlined word “this” in paragraph 2 refer to? A. The problem of spending too much on clothes. B. The wasteful habit of wearing clothes only once. C. The difficulty in finding suitable clothes for events. D. The social pressure to always wear different clothes. 9. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. What Boro is for. B. How to use Boro. C. Where Boro will go. D. Why to choose Boro. 10. How do Cundari and Pesta sound in the last paragraph? A. Warning. B. Doubtful. C. Pessimistic. D. Encouraging. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Boro: Your Green Closet. B. Sharing: A New Way of Life. C. Fast Fashion: A Hidden Problem. D. Renting: The Philosophy of Access. D In the blink of an eye, artificial intelligence (AI) has rapidly entered every walk of life, from self-driving taxis to software that reads X-rays, to virtual assistants that can schedule meetings and draft e-mails. However, will AI displace entire industries as mechanized factories did before? Like past world-changing tools such as mechanical cloth-making machines, AI is set to reshape the workplace greatly. But techno-pessimists argue AI’s impact has never been seen before. Economists estimate AI could rob 40% of jobs, with machines replacing much skilled human work and note that even remaining jobs may see declining wages due to reduced labor value. Amid these worries, 2024 Nobel Prize-winning economists Daron Acemoglu and Simon Johnson advise learning from David Ricardo’s flexible thinking about the early Industrial Revolution. In his work Principles of Political Economy and Taxation, economist Ricardo initially supported new spinning machines (纺纱机), believing they would promote productivity for all. Though home spinners were displaced, many shifted to weaving (织布). However, technology changed everything: one machine outperformed 10-20 handweavers, ending cottage industry. Displaced weavers had no choices as factories created few new jobs, leading to falling wages and social unrest. Witnessing these consequences, Ricardo transformed his view. His 1821 revised work acknowledged that factors boosting national income might also make population extra resources and worsen laborers’ conditions. England eventually learned from the struggles of handweavers and the working class. The government expanded political representation for industrial cities, passed the 1833 Factory Act to manage child labor, and ended the protectionist Corn Laws in the 1840s to lower food costs. The history repeats today. As the AI era approaches, Johnson notes that AI has attracted enormous talents, similar to the late-1990s Internet boom, but history — especially the Industrial Revolution — shows that “new miracle machines do not guarantee benefits for most people.” With thoughtful policies, AI can avoid repeating past mistakes and build an inclusive future. When technology is guided by wisdom and responsibility, it can become a powerful tool that lifts people up, reduces inequality, and brings greater opportunities to all. 12. Which question can paragraph 2 answer? A. How is AI to affect the work settings? B. Why has technology replaced human work? C. Who suffered most from the Industrial Revolution? D. What did cloth-making machines bring to workers? 13. Why did David Ricardo change his attitude? A. The closure of cottage industry. B. The appearance of spinning and weaving. C. The indifference of the government. D. The suffering of workers and the society. 14. What lesson can be learned from the text? A. Every step forward is progress. B. Technology makes the complex simple. C. History is where you find the future. D. With great power comes great responsibility. 15. What might be talked about following the last paragraph? A. Details of David Ricardo’s theories. B. Policy examples for guiding AI. C. The introduction of the Internet boom. D. The development of AI technology. 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Douglas Adams, of Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy fame, once said. “I love deadlines. I love the whooshing sound they make as they go by.” This captures my own feelings as I’ve just submitted my 9, 200-word first draft — a moment of mixed relief and anxiety. But what truly defines a first draft? ____16____ Yet this moment varies greatly. Some write in a structured way. polishing and redrafting as they go; others draft out characters and scenes broadly, focusing on narrative shape. Consequently, first drafts range from near-finished novels to loose outlines. ____17____ At one extreme, it can be really difficult for an editor to critique a draft that seems perfectly polished but actually requires major revision due to fundamental problems. Worse, this “perfection” often means that the author doesn’t truly want feedback — they just want you to say it’s perfect. ____18____ A rough, incomplete draft makes meaningful feedback nearly impossible and can feel like a waste of time to read. Strangely, it conveys the same unwillingness to engage with edits. ____19____ It should be polished enough to be an enjoyable read for your editor — if they don’t like it, who will? It must establish its identity as a book, yet allows for the reality that the work has only just started. Writing is rewriting and that is the reason why writing — usually held to be such a lonely occupation — is in fact deeply collaborative. But there is a further complication: time. It may seem like you have a lot of time, but you don’t. The sooner you send your first draft to your editor, the sooner you’ll get feedback. ____20____ Given that your editor cooperates… but that’s another question entirely. A. The other end is equally problematic. B. Both of these approaches have problems. C. And then you can properly shape and polish it. D. Therefore, a collaborative spirit from the start is essential. E. This is why an ideal first draft must strike a delicate balance. F. For some authors, it’s simply the first time they write “the end”. G. It represents the final stage before publication, a moment of victory. 第三部分 语言运用 (共三节，满分40分) 第一节 (共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项 (A、B、C、D) 中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 In a remote village in Zambia, where roads seem to stretch endlessly before reaching the nearest town, a classroom is filled with the energy of its young learners.

Andrew, a 38-year-old teacher, has ____23____ his under-resourced and overcrowded classroom. Students in Andrew’s class travel 5 to 15 kilometers each way to attend his lessons. The daily ____24____ reflects the broader barriers to ____25____ in Zambia, where over 800,000 primary school-aged children are out of school. Andrew ____26____ to let these barriers limit the potential of the ____27____ young learners who make the daily journey to his classroom. Drawing from local culture, he ____28____ traditional games — like skipping rope. These ____29____ helped children understand numbers and develop foundational skills in ____30____ ways. At the same time, he ____31____ support from the school administration and fellow teachers, even using his own funds to obtain essential teaching materials. ____32____ to developing a sense of professionalism and ____33____ among teachers, Andrew and his colleagues printed T-shirts decorated with “Catch-Up Program Teacher”. It was a small but powerful ____34____ that reinforced their identity as teachers dedicated to transforming learning outcomes.

Not only did I have to adapt to my changing body. I also had to deal with my parents’ bitter divorce, a new family and the upsetting move from my country home to a crowded suburb. When we moved, my beloved companion, a small brown pony(小马), had to be sold. Feeling helpless and alone, I couldn’t eat or sleep, and I cried all of the time. I missed my family, my home and my pony. Finally, my father, realizing how much I missed my pony, purchased an old red horse for me at a local market. My horse, Cowboy, was without a doubt the ugliest horse in the world. He was pigeon-toed and knock-kneed. But I didn’t care about his faults. I loved him beyond all reasons. I joined a riding club and faced rude comments and mean snickers about Cowboy’s looks. I never let on how I felt, but deep down inside, my heart was breaking. The other members rode beautiful registered horses. When Cowboy and I entered the events where the horse is judged on appearance, we were quickly out of the game. I finally realized that my only chance to compete would be in the timed-speed events. I chose barrel racing(绕桶赛), an event in which a horse and its rider attempt to complete a triangular pattern around three barrels in the fastest time. One girl named Becky rode a big brown horse in the race events. She always won the blue ribbons. Needless to say, she didn’t feel threatened when I competed against her at the next show. She didn’t need to. I came in next to last. The bitter memory of Becky’s smirks(得意的笑)made me determined to beat her. For the whole next month, I woke up early every day and rode Cowboy five miles to the arena(运动场地). We practiced for hours in the hot sun and then I would walk Cowboy home. On the way home I would be so tired; those five miles seemed twice as long. All of our hard work didn’t make me feel confident by the time the show came. I sat at the gate and sweated it out while I watched Becky and her horse charge through the pattern of barrels, finishing the course with case. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 My turn finally came. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ No cheers filled the air when I finished my show. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 大庆实验中学2024级高二下学期期中考试 英语学科试题 说明： 1. 请将答案填涂在答题卡的指定区域内。 2. 满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 第一部分 听力 (共两节，满分20分) 第一节 (共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话读两遍。 1.

Ella’s passion for the environment started with an early love of sharks (“My bedtime stories were shark books”) and many first-hand encounters with collecting plastic waste along the shores of Vero Beach. For Cash, the inspiration came at just seven years old, when a single plastic straw (吸管) on the beach caught his eye. That’s when he became aware of the crisis facing thousands of turtles (海龟) , seabirds and other wildlife, which risk death from consuming thrown-away plastic. Now they mostly communicate through online meetings, co-leading the Cleanup Kids, which now has more than 200 members worldwide and counting. Member responsibilities include conducting at least one cleanup per month, documenting and photographing the collected garbage, counting every piece to contribute toward the goal of collecting one million pieces of garbage by year’s end, and sorting and recycling items. It’s demanding work, but it hasn’t gone unrecognized. In 2022, out of more than 700 applicants from across North America, Cash and Ella were chosen to receive the Gloria Barron Prize for Young Heroes. This annual award recognizes exceptional young leaders between ages eight and 18 who have made a substantial impact both on people and the environment. “My hope for the Cleanup Kids is that it’s not hundreds of kids, it’s thousands of kids who join us,” says Ella. “Remember that kids may be only a small part of the population, but we’re100 percent of the future.” 4. How did Ella and Cash feel during their first meeting? A. At a loss. B. Full of regret. C. Calm. D. Bonded. 5. What made Ella and Cash start the Cleanup Kids? A. Their concern for sea life. B. A beach cleanup project. C. A shark protection camp. D. Their worries about plastic pollution. 6. What can we infer about the members of the Cleanup Kids? A. They have gained a high reputation. B. They have received formal training. C. They take on challenging tasks. D. They focus mainly on recycling. 7. What does Ella expect of the Cleanup Kids? A. It’ll receive more awards. B. It’ll attract more members. C. It’ll expand beyond America. D. It’ll inspire other green groups. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. C 7. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了Ella和Cash因环保结缘并创立“Cleanup Kids”组织的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“When nine-year-old Ella Grace Rossen and Cash Daniels met at Ocean Heroes Bootcamp, in the busy halls of the University of British Columbia, they immediately connected. “We knew we could make a difference together,” says Cash. “We instantly became best friends.”(九岁的Ella Grace Rossen与Cash Daniels在不列颠哥伦比亚大学热闹的校园大厅里参加“海洋英雄训练营”时相识，二人一见如故。“我们知道，联手就可以带来改变。”卡什说道，“我们瞬间就成了最好的朋友。”)”可知，Ella和Cash第一次见面时感觉很有默契。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Ella’s passion for the environment started with an early love of sharks (“My bedtime stories were shark books”) and many first-hand encounters with collecting plastic waste along the shores of Vero Beach. For Cash, the inspiration came at just seven years old, when a single plastic straw (吸管) on the beach caught his eye. That’s when he became aware of the crisis facing thousands of turtles (海龟) , seabirds and other wildlife, which risk death from consuming thrown-away plastic.(Ella的环保热情源于她从小对鲨鱼的喜爱（“我睡前读的故事书全是关于鲨鱼的”），同时她常在维罗海滩岸边捡拾塑料垃圾，亲身见证海洋污染问题。而Cash的环保启蒙始于七岁那年，海滩上一根孤零零的塑料吸管映入他的眼帘。那一刻，他意识到成千上万的海龟、海鸟以及其他野生动物正面临危机，误食废弃塑料会导致它们死亡。)”可知，是他们对海洋生物的关心促使他们创立了“Cleanup Kids”。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“Member responsibilities include conducting at least one cleanup per month, documenting and photographing the collected garbage, counting every piece to contribute toward the goal of collecting one million pieces of garbage by year’s end, and sorting and recycling items.(成员的职责包括每月至少进行一次清理，记录和拍摄收集的垃圾，清点每一件垃圾，以实现到年底收集一百万件垃圾的目标，并对物品进行分类和回收。)”可推知，“Cleanup Kids”的成员承担着具有挑战性的任务。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中““My hope for the Cleanup Kids is that it’s not hundreds of kids, it’s thousands of kids who join us,” says Ella.(Ella说：“我对‘Cleanup Kids’的希望是，加入我们的不是几百个孩子，而是成千上万个孩子。”)”可知，Ella希望“Cleanup Kids”能吸引更多的成员。 C Have you ever been invited to a fancy event and had nothing to wear? Perhaps you raced out to a store and bought a dress that cost a small fortune, looked great for a night, but ended up forgotten in the closet. Unluckily, this happens all too often for many women who feel they cannot wear the same outfit (全套服装) to different events. Not only is it expensive, but it’s wasteful, too. A new Toronto company hopes to change this. Following the philosophy of the sharing economy, Boro has created an online store where women can rent high-end dresses, bags, and jackets for up to 10 days at reasonable prices (starting at $30) , and lenders can make money off the beautiful items they’ve bought — 50 percent of the net revenue (净收入) from each rental. From Boro’s website: “Lending allows you to keep ownership of your item, so you have the choice of wearing it again or doing what you want with it in the future. Plus, by lending out your item on Boro, you can earn more than you would through selling it. Getting extra closet space is also a big plus.” Environmental protection is another reason mentioned on the website. Fashion uses resources and produces pollution at a rate that’s second on Earth only to the oil industry. While Boro’s pieces can hardly be considered “fast fashion” — too expensive and well-made — they are still highly specialized, stylized clothes that do not typically get the wear they should for the resources required to make them. Sharing with others is a good way to address this. Chris Cundari and Natalie Pesta, who launched Boro, hope that it will reshape fashion: “Access has become the new ownership — Uber for cars, Airbnb for housing, Netflix for movies, and Boro for closets... We believe that quality should always be chosen over quantity, and what you wear should give you a killer look without killing the planet. We believe that you should rent the outfit and own the moment.” 8. What does the underlined word “this” in paragraph 2 refer to? A. The problem of spending too much on clothes. B. The wasteful habit of wearing clothes only once. C. The difficulty in finding suitable clothes for events. D. The social pressure to always wear different clothes. 9. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. What Boro is for. B. How to use Boro. C. Where Boro will go. D. Why to choose Boro. 10. How do Cundari and Pesta sound in the last paragraph? A. Warning. B. Doubtful. C. Pessimistic. D. Encouraging. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Boro: Your Green Closet. B. Sharing: A New Way of Life. C. Fast Fashion: A Hidden Problem. D. Renting: The Philosophy of Access. 【答案】8. B 9. A 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了多伦多新公司Boro通过共享模式提供高端服装租赁服务。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段中“Unluckily, this happens all too often for many women who feel they cannot wear the same outfit (全套服装) to different events. Not only is it expensive, but it’s wasteful, too.(不幸的是，对于许多觉得自己不能穿着同一套服装参加不同活动的女性来说，这种情况经常发生。这不仅昂贵，而且浪费。)”和第二段中“A new Toronto company hopes to change this.(多伦多一家新兴企业希望改变这一现状。)”可知，第二段中“this”指的是衣服只穿一次就浪费的习惯。 【9题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“From Boro’s website: “Lending allows you to keep ownership of your item, so you have the choice of wearing it again or doing what you want with it in the future. Plus, by lending out your item on Boro, you can earn more than you would through selling it. Getting extra closet space is also a big plus.”(来自Boro的网站：“出借可以让你保留物品的所有权，所以你可以选择再次使用它，或者在将来用它做你想做的事。此外，通过在Boro上出租你的物品，你可以比出售它赚更多的钱。获得额外的壁橱空间也是一个很大的优势。”)”可知，本段介绍Boro平台的用途与作用。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Chris Cundari and Natalie Pesta, who launched Boro, hope that it will reshape fashion: “Access has become the new ownership — Uber for cars, Airbnb for housing, Netflix for movies, and Boro for closets... We believe that quality should always be chosen over quantity, and what you wear should give you a killer look without killing the planet. We believe that you should rent the outfit and own the moment.”(推出Boro的Chris Cundari和Natalie Pesta希望它能重塑时尚：“使用权已经成为新的所有权——汽车领域的优步，住房领域的爱彼迎，电影领域的网飞，以及衣柜领域的Boro……我们相信，质量应该永远优于数量，你穿的衣服应该让你看起来很棒，而不会破坏地球。我们相信你应该租这套衣服，拥有这一刻。”)”可推知，Cundari和Pesta听起来是鼓舞人心的。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据第二段中“A new Toronto company hopes to change this. Following the philosophy of the sharing economy, Boro has created an online store where women can rent high-end dresses, bags, and jackets for up to 10 days at reasonable prices (starting at $30) , and lenders can make money off the beautiful items they’ve bought — 50 percent of the net revenue (净收入) from each rental.(一家新的多伦多公司希望改变这一点。遵循共享经济的理念，Boro创建了一个在线商店，女性可以在这里以合理的价格（起价30美元）租用高端连衣裙、包和夹克，租期长达10天，而出租人可以从他们购买的漂亮物品中赚钱——每笔租金的净收入的50%。)”以及倒数第二段中“Environmental protection is another reason mentioned on the website.(环保是网站上提到的另一个原因。)”可知，文章主要介绍了多伦多新公司Boro通过共享模式提供高端服装租赁服务，既环保又经济。可知，A选项“Boro：你的绿色衣柜”最符合文章标题。 D In the blink of an eye, artificial intelligence (AI) has rapidly entered every walk of life, from self-driving taxis to software that reads X-rays, to virtual assistants that can schedule meetings and draft e-mails. However, will AI displace entire industries as mechanized factories did before? Like past world-changing tools such as mechanical cloth-making machines, AI is set to reshape the workplace greatly. But techno-pessimists argue AI’s impact has never been seen before. Economists estimate AI could rob 40% of jobs, with machines replacing much skilled human work and note that even remaining jobs may see declining wages due to reduced labor value. Amid these worries, 2024 Nobel Prize-winning economists Daron Acemoglu and Simon Johnson advise learning from David Ricardo’s flexible thinking about the early Industrial Revolution. In his work Principles of Political Economy and Taxation, economist Ricardo initially supported new spinning machines (纺纱机), believing they would promote productivity for all. Though home spinners were displaced, many shifted to weaving (织布). However, technology changed everything: one machine outperformed 10-20 handweavers, ending cottage industry. Displaced weavers had no choices as factories created few new jobs, leading to falling wages and social unrest. Witnessing these consequences, Ricardo transformed his view. His 1821 revised work acknowledged that factors boosting national income might also make population extra resources and worsen laborers’ conditions. England eventually learned from the struggles of handweavers and the working class. The government expanded political representation for industrial cities, passed the 1833 Factory Act to manage child labor, and ended the protectionist Corn Laws in the 1840s to lower food costs. The history repeats today. As the AI era approaches, Johnson notes that AI has attracted enormous talents, similar to the late-1990s Internet boom, but history — especially the Industrial Revolution — shows that “new miracle machines do not guarantee benefits for most people.” With thoughtful policies, AI can avoid repeating past mistakes and build an inclusive future. When technology is guided by wisdom and responsibility, it can become a powerful tool that lifts people up, reduces inequality, and brings greater opportunities to all. 12. Which question can paragraph 2 answer? A. How is AI to affect the work settings? B. Why has technology replaced human work? C. Who suffered most from the Industrial Revolution? D. What did cloth-making machines bring to workers? 13. Why did David Ricardo change his attitude? A. The closure of cottage industry. B. The appearance of spinning and weaving. C. The indifference of the government. D. The suffering of workers and the society. 14. What lesson can be learned from the text? A. Every step forward is progress. B. Technology makes the complex simple. C. History is where you find the future. D. With great power comes great responsibility. 15. What might be talked about following the last paragraph? A. Details of David Ricardo’s theories. B. Policy examples for guiding AI. C. The introduction of the Internet boom. D. The development of AI technology. 【答案】12. A 13. D 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章结合工业革命历史及Ricardo的观点，探讨AI对职场的影响，指出需借助合理政策引导AI，避免重蹈历史覆辙。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Like past world-changing tools such as mechanical cloth-making machines, AI is set to reshape the workplace greatly.(就像过去的机械织布机等改变世界的工具一样，人工智能将极大地重塑工作场所。)”可知，第二段回答了第一段关于人工智能将如何影响工作环境这一问题。故选A项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Displaced weavers had no choices as factories created few new jobs, leading to falling wages and social unrest. Witnessing these consequences, Ricardo transformed his view.(由于工厂几乎没有创造新的就业岗位，失业的织工别无选择，导致工资下降和社会动荡。目睹了这些后果，Ricardo改变了他的观点。)”可知，工人与社会遭受的苦难让Ricardo改变了态度。故选D项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The history repeats today. As the AI era approaches, Johnson notes that AI has attracted enormous talents, similar to the late-1990s Internet boom, but history — especially the Industrial Revolution — shows that “new miracle machines do not guarantee benefits for most people.”(历史在今日重演。随着人工智能时代的到来，约翰逊指出，人工智能吸引了大批人才，这与上世纪90年代末的互联网热潮颇为相似，但历史 —— 尤其是工业革命的历史 —— 表明，“新的神奇机器并不能保证为大多数人带来福祉。”)”可知，我们能从历史中找到应对未来的启示。故选C项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“With thoughtful policies, AI can avoid repeating past mistakes and build an inclusive future.(通过深思熟虑的政策，人工智能可以避免重蹈覆辙，构建一个包容的未来。)”可知，下文最可能谈论引导人工智能发展的具体政策案例。故选B项。 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Douglas Adams, of Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy fame, once said. “I love deadlines. I love the whooshing sound they make as they go by.” This captures my own feelings as I’ve just submitted my 9, 200-word first draft — a moment of mixed relief and anxiety. But what truly defines a first draft? ____16____ Yet this moment varies greatly. Some write in a structured way. polishing and redrafting as they go; others draft out characters and scenes broadly, focusing on narrative shape. Consequently, first drafts range from near-finished novels to loose outlines. ____17____ At one extreme, it can be really difficult for an editor to critique a draft that seems perfectly polished but actually requires major revision due to fundamental problems. Worse, this “perfection” often means that the author doesn’t truly want feedback — they just want you to say it’s perfect. ____18____ A rough, incomplete draft makes meaningful feedback nearly impossible and can feel like a waste of time to read. Strangely, it conveys the same unwillingness to engage with edits. ____19____ It should be polished enough to be an enjoyable read for your editor — if they don’t like it, who will? It must establish its identity as a book, yet allows for the reality that the work has only just started. Writing is rewriting and that is the reason why writing — usually held to be such a lonely occupation — is in fact deeply collaborative. But there is a further complication: time. It may seem like you have a lot of time, but you don’t. The sooner you send your first draft to your editor, the sooner you’ll get feedback. ____20____ Given that your editor cooperates… but that’s another question entirely. A. The other end is equally problematic. B. Both of these approaches have problems. C. And then you can properly shape and polish it. D. Therefore, a collaborative spirit from the start is essential. E. This is why an ideal first draft must strike a delicate balance. F. For some authors, it’s simply the first time they write “the end”. G. It represents the final stage before publication, a moment of victory. 【答案】16. F 17. B 18. A 19. E 20. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章围绕“初稿”展开，通过分析不同类型初稿的特点、存在的问题，探讨理想初稿的标准，还提及初稿提交时间与反馈的关系等内容。 【16题详解】 根据空格前句子“But what truly defines a first draft?(但什么才真正定义了一个初稿？)”可知，空格处应具体说明初稿的定义。F项“For some authors, it’s simply the first time they write ‘the end.’ (对一些作者来说，这只是他们第一次写“完”的时刻。)”与“defines a first draft”直接呼应。故选F。 【17题详解】 后文提到“At one extreme, it can be really difficult for an editor to critique a draft that seems perfectly polished but actually requires major revision due to fundamental problems.(在一个极端情况下，编辑很难评判一篇看似完美打磨但实际上由于根本问题需要大幅修改的初稿)”，说明一种初稿类型存在问题。选项B“Both of these approaches have problems.(这两种方法都有问题)”，引出后文对两种极端类型初稿问题的阐述。故选B。 【18题详解】 前文描述了过于完美的初稿存在的问题，后文说“A rough, incomplete draft makes meaningful feedback nearly impossible and can feel like a waste of time to read.(一份粗糙、不完整的初稿几乎无法得到有意义的反馈，读起来也像是在浪费时间)”，说明另一种极端 (过于粗糙) 的初稿也有问题。选项A“The other end is equally problematic.(另一个极端同样存在问题)”，起到承上启下的作用，引出后文对过于粗糙初稿问题的描述。故选A。 【19题详解】 前文分析了两种极端类型初稿的问题，后文说“It should be polished enough to be an enjoyable read for your editor — if they don’t like it, who will? It must establish its identity as a book, yet allows for the reality that the work has only just started.(它应该打磨得足够好，让编辑读起来愉快 —— 如果他们不喜欢，还有谁会喜欢呢？它必须确立自己作为一本书的身份，但也要考虑到工作才刚刚开始的现实)”，说明理想的初稿要在打磨程度和可修改性之间取得平衡。选项E“This is why an ideal first draft must strike a delicate balance.(这就是为什么理想的初稿必须要取得微妙的平衡)”，总结前文两种极端初稿的问题，引出后文对理想初稿标准的阐述。故选E。 【20题详解】 前文说“The sooner you send your first draft to your editor, the sooner you’ll get feedback.(你越早把初稿发给编辑，你就能越早得到反馈)”，选项C“And then you can properly shape and polish it.(然后你就可以适当地塑造和打磨它)”，说明得到反馈后就可以对初稿进行进一步的完善，与前文逻辑连贯。故选C。 第三部分 语言运用 (共三节，满分40分) 第一节 (共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项 (A、B、C、D) 中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 In a remote village in Zambia, where roads seem to stretch endlessly before reaching the nearest town, a classroom is filled with the energy of its young learners.

I also had to deal with my parents’ bitter divorce, a new family and the upsetting move from my country home to a crowded suburb. When we moved, my beloved companion, a small brown pony(小马), had to be sold. Feeling helpless and alone, I couldn’t eat or sleep, and I cried all of the time. I missed my family, my home and my pony. Finally, my father, realizing how much I missed my pony, purchased an old red horse for me at a local market. My horse, Cowboy, was without a doubt the ugliest horse in the world. He was pigeon-toed and knock-kneed. But I didn’t care about his faults. I loved him beyond all reasons. I joined a riding club and faced rude comments and mean snickers about Cowboy’s looks. I never let on how I felt, but deep down inside, my heart was breaking. The other members rode beautiful registered horses. When Cowboy and I entered the events where the horse is judged on appearance, we were quickly out of the game. I finally realized that my only chance to compete would be in the timed-speed events. I chose barrel racing(绕桶赛), an event in which a horse and its rider attempt to complete a triangular pattern around three barrels in the fastest time. One girl named Becky rode a big brown horse in the race events. She always won the blue ribbons. Needless to say, she didn’t feel threatened when I competed against her at the next show. She didn’t need to. I came in next to last. The bitter memory of Becky’s smirks(得意的笑)made me determined to beat her. For the whole next month, I woke up early every day and rode Cowboy five miles to the arena(运动场地). We practiced for hours in the hot sun and then I would walk Cowboy home. On the way home I would be so tired; those five miles seemed twice as long. All of our hard work didn’t make me feel confident by the time the show came. I sat at the gate and sweated it out while I watched Becky and her horse charge through the pattern of barrels, finishing the course with case. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 My turn finally came. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ No cheers filled the air when I finished my show. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文 My turn finally came. As I urged Cowboy forward, he stumbled, and almost fell, much to the delight of the other riders. I jammed my hat down on my head, stroked Cowboy's big red neck and entered the arena. At the signal, we dashed toward the first barrel, quickly whipped around it and with perfect precision rounded the second and thundered on to the third. We tore around the final curve and shot for the finish line. No cheers filled the air when I finished my show. The end of our run was met with surprised silence. With the sound of my heart pounding in my ears, I heard the announcer call our time. Cowboy and I had beaten Becky and her proud fancy horse! I gained much more than a blue ribbon that day. At thirteen, I realized that I'd always come out a winner if I wanted something badly enough to work for it. I can be the master of my own destiny. 【解析】 【分析】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者才13岁就承受着家庭的变故，并且失去了宠物小马驹的陪伴，他很孤单，需要陪伴。父亲在当地市场买了一匹老马，尽管Cowboy很丑，她还是很喜欢他在身边；一个叫贝基的女孩骑着一匹棕色的大马参加比赛，当作者在与她竞争时，她轻易的赢了，但是贝基得意的笑让作者决心打败她，并且最终做到了。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“终于轮到我了。”可知，第一段可描写比赛的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“当我结束我的表演时，空气中没有欢呼声。”可知，第二段可描写观众对于作者赢了贝基的惊讶以及作者的感悟。 2.续写线索：家庭变故——失落——比赛失败——锻炼——获胜——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①搬家： move/go away from home ②冲：dash/rush ③获得：gain/get 情绪类 ①失落的：down / heart-breaking/upset ②高兴的：delighted/happy 【点睛】 [高分句型1].
