The old man’s hands shook, his eyesight was poor, and he walked unsteadily. The family ate together at the table. But the elderly grandfather’s shaky hands and poor sight made eating difficult. Peas rolled off his spoon onto the floor, and when he tried to pick them up, the glass of milk spilled on the tablecloth. The son and his wife became irritated (恼怒的) with the mess. “We must do something,” the son said one day. “I’ve had enough of the spilled milk, his noisy eating, and food on the floor. ” So, the husband and wife set a small table in the corner. From then on, the grandfather ate alone while the rest of the family enjoyed their dinner together. Since he broke a dish or two, his food had been served in a wooden bowl. Sometimes, when the family glanced (看一眼) in the old man’s direction, they would see a tear in his eye as he sat alone. Yet, all he ever received when he dropped something were sharp scoldings (斥责). His four-year-old grandson watched everything in silence. One evening before dinner, the father noticed his little boy playing with some pieces of wood on the floor. “What are you making?” he asked sweetly. “Oh, I’m making little bowls for you and Mama to eat from when I grow up,”the boy responded and went back to work. His words struck the parents deeply. Though no word was spoken, both knew what must be done. That evening, the husband took Grandfather’s hand and gently led him back to the family table. For the rest of his days, Grandfather ate every meal with the family. And for some reason, the son and his wife no longer seemed to care about the spilled milk or the food on the floor. 1. Why was a wooden bowl given to grandfather? A. It was a gift from his grandson. B. It was lighter to hold. C. It would not break easily. D. It was the only bowl left in the house. 2. What was the little boy making with pieces of wood? A. A toy car. B. Bowls for his parents. C. A small table. D. A wooden spoon. 3. What happened at last? A. The grandfather still ate alone. B. The parents sent the grandfather away. C. The grandfather ate with the family again. D. The grandson left home. 【答案】1. C 2. B 3. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了一位身体虚弱的老人与儿子一家同住，因吃饭时弄脏桌面而被赶到角落用餐，用木碗盛饭。年幼的孙子目睹一切后，用木头为父母制作小碗，暗示将来也要这样对待他们。父母深受触动，最终将老人请回家庭餐桌。 【1题详解】 第四段句子“Since he broke a dish or two, his food had been served in a wooden bowl.” 指出，因为祖父之前打碎了一两个盘子，所以改用木碗，木碗不易打碎。 【2题详解】 倒数第三段小男孩回答父亲时说：“I’m making little bowls for you and Mama to eat from when I grow up.” 他正在用木头为父母做小碗。 【3题详解】 倒数第二段句子“That evening, the husband took Grandfather’s hand and gently led him back to the family table. ”及最后一段“For the rest of his days, Grandfather ate every meal with the family.”表明， 祖父最终重新与家人一起吃饭。 （B） Do you ever think about where you should put food in your fridge (冰箱)? It might sound simple, but placing items in the right places can help keep your food fresh and safe to eat. Not every part of your fridge is at the same temperature. Cold air sinks, so the bottom shelves (架子) are colder than the top ones. The door shelves, on the other hand, warm up the most because they get the most air when you open the door. Knowing this helps you decide where different types of food should go. The top shelves are the best place for ready-to-eat food, such as leftovers (吃剩的食物), cooked meats and ready meals. These items should always be kept far from any uncooked food, to keep them safe from any bacteria (细菌). The middle shelves, where the temperature stays steady and cool, are perfect for all your dairy items. Keep things such as milk, cheese, butter and yogurt here. The bottom shelves are the coldest part of your fridge, so it’s the best place for uncooked meat and fish. Keeping them here also means that if any juices leak (漏出), they won’t touch other foods below. Always keep them in closed boxes or bags, too. Finally, the door shelves are the warmest place in your fridge. Use them for items that don’t go bad quickly, such as sauces (调味汁), jams and drinks. Knowing where and how to store things in your fridge can make a big difference in keeping your food and you safe. 4. Which part of the fridge is the coldest? A. The top shelves. B. The middle shelves. C. The bottom shelves. D. The door shelves. 5. Why are the door shelves the warmest? A. Because cold air stays there. B. Because they get the most air when the door opens. C. Because they are near the light. D. Because food keeps them warm. 6. The middle shelves are good for ________. A. dairy products B. uncooked food C. drinks D. jams 7. Why should uncooked food be kept away from ready-to-eat food? A. To save space. B. To stop bacteria from polluting them. C. To keep the fridge tidy. D. To make them taste better. 【答案】4. C 5. B 6. A 7. B 【解析】 【导语】 本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了冰箱不同区域的温度差异以及如何根据温度特点正确存放不同种类的食物，以保证食物的新鲜与安全。 【4题详解】 第二段句子“Cold air sinks, so the bottom shelves are colder than the top ones.”明确指出：冷空气下沉，所以底层架子比顶层架子更冷。因此，冰箱最冷的部分是底层架子。 【5题详解】 第二段句子“The door shelves, on the other hand, warm up the most because they get the most air when you open the door.”指出：门架最热，因为开门时它们接触的空气最多。因此，门架最热的原因是开门时它们接触最多空气。 【6题详解】 第四段句子“The middle shelves...are perfect for all your dairy items. Keep things such as milk, cheese, butter and yogurt here.”明确指出：中层架子适合所有乳制品。把牛奶、奶酪、黄油和酸奶等放在这里。因此，中层架子适合存放乳制品。 【7题详解】 第三段句子“These items should always be kept far from any uncooked food, to keep them safe from any bacteria.”指出：即食食品应始终远离生食，以保护它们免受细菌污染。因此，分开存放是为了防止细菌污染即食食品。 （C） In late November, a very special comic book (漫画书) was sold for $9.12 million. It’s the first issue (期) of the comic book series (系列) Superman. It was found in an attic (阁楼) last December, and now it’s the world’s most expensive comic book. Superman is one of the most famous superheroes of all time. The character was created by two high school students, Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster. Superman’s first comic book series came out in 1939. It was called Superman#1. Though it’s very common now, at that time, no comic book had ever focused on just one superhero. It was a sign of how popular Superman was, and how much the character would affect the comic book world. In December, 2024, three brothers found a copy (副本) of Superman#1 and some other comics in their mother’s attic. She and her brother had led a simple life growing up in the 1930s and 1940s. But buying and reading cheap comic books was something they really enjoyed. The brothers knew that their mother had a collection of comic books, but they had never seen the collection. The brothers only found them when they were clearing out their mother’s house after she died. They found the comics in a cardboard box in the back of the attic. The comics had been protected by some old newspapers. Even though it was over 80 years old, the copy of Superman #1 was in excellent condition. Heritage Auctions, the group that sold the comic, said it was the most well -kept copy of Superman #1 that they’d ever seen. In the end, the comic was sold for $9.12 million. That’s the highest price ever paid for a comic book. Lon Allen, who works for Heritage Auctions, said he was very excited about the sale. Over nine million dollars is a lot of money for a comic book that only cost 10 cents when it first came out. But some things help make this copy of Superman #1 valuable. First is its excellent condition. Another important point is that the brothers’ copy came from the first printing of the comic. The brothers say the sale isn’t just about a special comic book. They say it’s about “family, and the unexpected ways the past finds its way back to us.” 8. Who created the Superman character? A. Two college teachers. B. Two high school students. C. Two famous writers. D. Two movie directors. 9. Where did the three brothers find the comic book? A. In their father’s room. B. In their mother’s attic. C. In a bookstore. D. In a museum. 10. Which is NOT a reason why the comic is so valuable? A. Its excellent condition. B. It is from the first printing. C. It was found by three brothers. D. It is the world-famous Superman #1. 11. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. The brothers had seen the comic collection many times before. . B. The comics were not protected by anything. C. This Superman comic is the world’s most expensive comic book. D. The comic was sold in early November. 【答案】8. B 9. B 10. C 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了《超人》首期漫画以912万美元售出，成为全球最贵漫画。该角色由两名高中生创作，三兄弟在母亲去世后清理阁楼时发现这本保存完好的第一版漫画。 【8题详解】 第二段明确写道“The character was created by two high school students, Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster.” 【9题详解】 第三段和第四段提到在母亲阁楼的一个纸箱里发现的。 【10题详解】 文章最后一段指出价值高的原因是“excellent condition”和“from the first printing”，而“被三兄弟发现”不是价值因素。 【11题详解】 第一段最后一句“now it’s the world’s most expensive comic book。” A错误：兄弟之前从未见过这些漫画；B错误：漫画被旧报纸保护着；D错误：漫画在11月下旬售出，不是11月初。 (D) Justin Horner was driving down a busy highway when his tire (轮胎) blew out (爆胎). He pulled over and made a sign asking for help. Three hours later, a truck finally pulled up and out came a family of four. They were Latino (拉丁裔的). Their young daughter acted as a translator between her Spanish-speaking parents and Horner, so that they could work together to fix Horner’s car. It took them about an hour. When they finished, the mother shared a big bottle of water with everyone to drink and wash their hands. “I thanked them again and again, ” Horner recalled. “I tried to give the mother money. I only had a $20 bill, and I thought it was the least I should do. And she wouldn’t take it. ” But Horner insisted (坚持). Finally, he put the money in her hand and walked away. Then he heard their young daughter call out and ask him if he was hungry. Indeed he was. She came over with a tamale (墨西哥粽子) from their cooler. Horner thanked them once again. Then the little girl got into the truck, and they drove off. “As they were trying to get into the traffic, ” Horner said, “I was unwrapping (打开) the tamale and found my money in it. ” Horner immediately ran over to the truck to get the father’s attention. “He rolled down the window, ” he said. “He saw me coming and he was just shaking his head. I kept saying, ‘Please, take it!’—I was holding the bill out. Then he put his hand up, with a big smile on his face, and just said, ‘Today you, tomorrow me.’ ” The father then said goodbye to Horner, rolled up the window, and drove off. Horner never saw them again. 12. Who helped translate between Horner and the Spanish-speaking family? A. The mother. B. The father. C. Their young daughter. D. A stranger. 13. Where did Horner find his money again? A. In the truck. B. In his own bag. C. Inside the tamale. D. On the ground. 14. How did the family show kindness besides fixing the car? A. They gave Horner twenty dollars. B. They invited Horner to their home. C. They gave Horner food and water. D. They called a repair service for Horner. 15. What does the father mean by saying “Today you, tomorrow me”? A. Good luck comes and goes for everyone. B. People should take turns helping each other in life. C. Today’s problems will be solved by tomorrow’s you. D. You must help others if you want to be helped later. 【答案】12. C 13. C 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了Justin Horner在高速爆胎后，被一个拉丁裔家庭无偿修车、送水送食物，他给的20美元被悄悄放回，对方用“今天帮你，明天帮我”诠释了善意传递的温暖。 【12题详解】 原文第二段明确提到“Their young daughter acted as a translator between her Spanish-speaking parents and Horner”，可知他们的小女儿充当翻译，帮助只会说西班牙语的父母和霍纳沟通。 【13题详解】 原文第五段提到“I was unwrapping the tamale and found my money in it.”，可知Horner打开粽子，发现他的钱就在里面。 【14题详解】 原文第二段提到妈妈分享了水，第四段提到小女孩给了Horner墨西哥粽子，这些都是除了修车之外的善意行为。 【15题详解】 这句话的核心是善意的传递，意思是“今天是你，明天可能就是我(需要帮助)”，体现了互助的循环，B项“人们在生活中应该互相帮助、轮流传递善意”准确表达了这个含义。 第二节（共5小题；每小题1分, 满分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。选项中有一项为多余选项。 Do you wake up on Monday and ask yourself, “Wait…Is it Monday already?” If so, you may need a “slow weekend”! Many people try to do everything on their days off. They clean the house, visit friends, and do all the things they couldn’t do during the week. But after a weekend like that, you may feel like you never really rested. ____16____ The idea is simple: do less and rest more. So how can you have a “slow weekend”? Here are some easy tips: ▲Start slow Start your weekend with peace. When you wake up on Saturday, don’t rush. Give yourself time to simply lie(平躺) in bed for a while. Enjoy a slow breakfast. Don’t check your phone right away. ____17____ This helps you feel more relaxed the whole weekend. ▲Do one thing at a time Try not to do many things at once. For example, if you’re watching a movie, put your phone away. If you’ re reading a book, turn off the TV. ____18____ ▲Go out for a walk Of course, you don’t have to spend all weekend inside. ____19____ You don’t need a plan—just leave the house and go for a walk! ▲Take a nap After lunch, you may feel like a short sleep.

C 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了“慢周末”的概念，并给出了五条具体建议，帮助人们在周末放慢节奏、好好休息，以更好的状态迎接周一。 【16题详解】 前文“But after a weekend like that, you may feel like you never really rested.”描述了“忙碌周末反而没休息好”的问题，F项“这就是为什么有些人想要过‘慢周末’”，正好承接上文，引出下文对“慢周末”的介绍，逻辑连贯。 【17题详解】 前文提到的“慢起床、慢吃早餐、不看手机”都是让周末早晨变得轻松的做法，B项“让早晨安静又轻松”是对这些做法的总结，也呼应了小标题“Start slow”。 【18题详解】 小标题“Do one thing at a time”说明本段主旨是“一次只做一件事”并列举具体的做法，E项“这有助于让你的时间‘感觉更慢、更充实’”是对这些做法好处的总结，符合段落逻辑。 【19题详解】 小标题“Go out for a walk”提到“出门散步”，A项“呼吸新鲜空气对健康真的很有好处”解释了散步的好处，呼应了“出门散步”的建议。 【20题详解】 前文提到周日晚上回想周末的开心事，核心是让心情平静，不为即将到来的周一焦虑。C项“别担心周一的事——它可以等一等”呼应了“平静结束周末”的主题，也和开头的“周一焦虑”形成呼应。 第二部分 语言知识应用（共两节, 满分25分） 第一节 完形填空（共10题；每小题1分, 满分10分） 阅读下面短文, 从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中, 选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Having a hobby is not just about having fun in your free time—it’s also great for your mind and body.

This fascinating body of water is likely to be one of the most traveled water areas on the planet. However, there is plenty about the sea that many people may not be aware of. Its shoreline is shared among multiple countries across the Middle East, and as such, it’s an important route for trade. Here are some fun facts about the Red Sea. It’s time for you to catch up. The Red Sea is between Africa and Asia. It is thought to be around three times the size of Greece in total area! That’s almost 440, 000 square kilometres. The sea’s volume(容量), too, is impressive. It’s thought to run around 7, 250 feet deep, and it’s around 233, 000 cubic kilometres in volume. However, around a quarter of the Red Sea is actually less than 160 feet deep! Despite its shallow parts, the Red Sea is hugely popular with divers(潜水者)from all over the world. The Red Sea is known for having one of the highest salinity levels among the world’s seas, largely thanks to the sheer heat, as well as the evaporation(蒸发) levels in the region. Usually, the salinity(盐度) of other water bodies is around 3. 5%. However, the salinity of the Red Sea is around 4. 1%. Because of this, it’s easy for people to float(漂浮) on the Red Sea, much like the famous Dead Sea. Most of us may think the Red Sea is red in color, but in fact it’s not. It looks like any other sea with its beautiful blue. However, the sea looks red sometimes. That’s because a kind of red-colored algae(海藻) grows in the water. The Red Sea is abundant with incredible aquatic life. For example, you are likely to find around 44 different species of sharks in these waters alone, along with around 1, 200 different fish species. 41. Where is the Red Sea? ________________________________ 42. Why is the Red Sea very salty? ________________________________ 43. Why can people float easily on the Red Sea? ________________________________ 44. Is the Red Sea really red all the time? ________________________________ 45. Why does the Red Sea sometimes look red? ________________________________ 【答案】41. It is between Africa and Asia. 42. Because of the sheer heat and high evaporation levels in the region. 43.

The old man’s hands shook, his eyesight was poor, and he walked unsteadily. The family ate together at the table. But the elderly grandfather’s shaky hands and poor sight made eating difficult. Peas rolled off his spoon onto the floor, and when he tried to pick them up, the glass of milk spilled on the tablecloth. The son and his wife became irritated (恼怒的) with the mess. “We must do something,” the son said one day. “I’ve had enough of the spilled milk, his noisy eating, and food on the floor. ” So, the husband and wife set a small table in the corner. From then on, the grandfather ate alone while the rest of the family enjoyed their dinner together. Since he broke a dish or two, his food had been served in a wooden bowl. Sometimes, when the family glanced (看一眼) in the old man’s direction, they would see a tear in his eye as he sat alone. Yet, all he ever received when he dropped something were sharp scoldings (斥责). His four-year-old grandson watched everything in silence. One evening before dinner, the father noticed his little boy playing with some pieces of wood on the floor. “What are you making?” he asked sweetly. “Oh, I’m making little bowls for you and Mama to eat from when I grow up,”the boy responded and went back to work. His words struck the parents deeply. Though no word was spoken, both knew what must be done. That evening, the husband took Grandfather’s hand and gently led him back to the family table. For the rest of his days, Grandfather ate every meal with the family. And for some reason, the son and his wife no longer seemed to care about the spilled milk or the food on the floor. 1. Why was a wooden bowl given to grandfather? A. It was a gift from his grandson. B. It was lighter to hold. C. It would not break easily. D. It was the only bowl left in the house. 2. What was the little boy making with pieces of wood? A. A toy car. B. Bowls for his parents. C. A small table. D. A wooden spoon. 3. What happened at last? A. The grandfather still ate alone. B. The parents sent the grandfather away. C. The grandfather ate with the family again. D. The grandson left home. （B） Do you ever think about where you should put food in your fridge (冰箱)? It might sound simple, but placing items in the right places can help keep your food fresh and safe to eat. Not every part of your fridge is at the same temperature. Cold air sinks, so the bottom shelves (架子) are colder than the top ones. The door shelves, on the other hand, warm up the most because they get the most air when you open the door. Knowing this helps you decide where different types of food should go. The top shelves are the best place for ready-to-eat food, such as leftovers (吃剩的食物), cooked meats and ready meals. These items should always be kept far from any uncooked food, to keep them safe from any bacteria (细菌). The middle shelves, where the temperature stays steady and cool, are perfect for all your dairy items. Keep things such as milk, cheese, butter and yogurt here. The bottom shelves are the coldest part of your fridge, so it’s the best place for uncooked meat and fish. Keeping them here also means that if any juices leak (漏出), they won’t touch other foods below. Always keep them in closed boxes or bags, too. Finally, the door shelves are the warmest place in your fridge. Use them for items that don’t go bad quickly, such as sauces (调味汁), jams and drinks. Knowing where and how to store things in your fridge can make a big difference in keeping your food and you safe. 4. Which part of the fridge is the coldest? A. The top shelves. B. The middle shelves. C. The bottom shelves. D. The door shelves. 5. Why are the door shelves the warmest? A. Because cold air stays there. B. Because they get the most air when the door opens. C. Because they are near the light. D. Because food keeps them warm. 6. The middle shelves are good for ________. A. dairy products B. uncooked food C. drinks D. jams 7. Why should uncooked food be kept away from ready-to-eat food? A. To save space. B. To stop bacteria from polluting them. C. To keep the fridge tidy. D. To make them taste better. （C） In late November, a very special comic book (漫画书) was sold for $9.12 million. It’s the first issue (期) of the comic book series (系列) Superman. It was found in an attic (阁楼) last December, and now it’s the world’s most expensive comic book. Superman is one of the most famous superheroes of all time. The character was created by two high school students, Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster. Superman’s first comic book series came out in 1939. It was called Superman#1. Though it’s very common now, at that time, no comic book had ever focused on just one superhero. It was a sign of how popular Superman was, and how much the character would affect the comic book world. In December, 2024, three brothers found a copy (副本) of Superman#1 and some other comics in their mother’s attic. She and her brother had led a simple life growing up in the 1930s and 1940s. But buying and reading cheap comic books was something they really enjoyed. The brothers knew that their mother had a collection of comic books, but they had never seen the collection. The brothers only found them when they were clearing out their mother’s house after she died. They found the comics in a cardboard box in the back of the attic. The comics had been protected by some old newspapers. Even though it was over 80 years old, the copy of Superman #1 was in excellent condition. Heritage Auctions, the group that sold the comic, said it was the most well -kept copy of Superman #1 that they’d ever seen. In the end, the comic was sold for $9.12 million. That’s the highest price ever paid for a comic book. Lon Allen, who works for Heritage Auctions, said he was very excited about the sale. Over nine million dollars is a lot of money for a comic book that only cost 10 cents when it first came out. But some things help make this copy of Superman #1 valuable. First is its excellent condition. Another important point is that the brothers’ copy came from the first printing of the comic. The brothers say the sale isn’t just about a special comic book. They say it’s about “family, and the unexpected ways the past finds its way back to us.” 8. Who created the Superman character? A. Two college teachers. B. Two high school students. C. Two famous writers. D. Two movie directors. 9. Where did the three brothers find the comic book? A. In their father’s room. B. In their mother’s attic. C. In a bookstore. D. In a museum. 10. Which is NOT a reason why the comic is so valuable? A. Its excellent condition. B. It is from the first printing. C. It was found by three brothers. D. It is the world-famous Superman #1. 11. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. The brothers had seen the comic collection many times before. . B. The comics were not protected by anything. C. This Superman comic is the world’s most expensive comic book. D. The comic was sold in early November. (D) Justin Horner was driving down a busy highway when his tire (轮胎) blew out (爆胎). He pulled over and made a sign asking for help. Three hours later, a truck finally pulled up and out came a family of four. They were Latino (拉丁裔的). Their young daughter acted as a translator between her Spanish-speaking parents and Horner, so that they could work together to fix Horner’s car. It took them about an hour. When they finished, the mother shared a big bottle of water with everyone to drink and wash their hands. “I thanked them again and again, ” Horner recalled. “I tried to give the mother money. I only had a $20 bill, and I thought it was the least I should do. And she wouldn’t take it. ” But Horner insisted (坚持). Finally, he put the money in her hand and walked away. Then he heard their young daughter call out and ask him if he was hungry. Indeed he was. She came over with a tamale (墨西哥粽子) from their cooler. Horner thanked them once again. Then the little girl got into the truck, and they drove off. “As they were trying to get into the traffic, ” Horner said, “I was unwrapping (打开) the tamale and found my money in it. ” Horner immediately ran over to the truck to get the father’s attention. “He rolled down the window, ” he said. “He saw me coming and he was just shaking his head. I kept saying, ‘Please, take it!’—I was holding the bill out. Then he put his hand up, with a big smile on his face, and just said, ‘Today you, tomorrow me.’ ” The father then said goodbye to Horner, rolled up the window, and drove off. Horner never saw them again. 12. Who helped translate between Horner and the Spanish-speaking family? A. The mother. B. The father. C. Their young daughter. D. A stranger. 13. Where did Horner find his money again? A. In the truck. B. In his own bag. C. Inside the tamale. D. On the ground. 14. How did the family show kindness besides fixing the car? A. They gave Horner twenty dollars. B. They invited Horner to their home. C. They gave Horner food and water. D. They called a repair service for Horner. 15. What does the father mean by saying “Today you, tomorrow me”? A. Good luck comes and goes for everyone. B. People should take turns helping each other in life. C. Today’s problems will be solved by tomorrow’s you. D. You must help others if you want to be helped later. 第二节（共5小题；每小题1分, 满分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。选项中有一项为多余选项。 Do you wake up on Monday and ask yourself, “Wait…Is it Monday already?” If so, you may need a “slow weekend”!

This fascinating body of water is likely to be one of the most traveled water areas on the planet. However, there is plenty about the sea that many people may not be aware of. Its shoreline is shared among multiple countries across the Middle East, and as such, it’s an important route for trade. Here are some fun facts about the Red Sea. It’s time for you to catch up. The Red Sea is between Africa and Asia. It is thought to be around three times the size of Greece in total area! That’s almost 440, 000 square kilometres. The sea’s volume(容量), too, is impressive. It’s thought to run around 7, 250 feet deep, and it’s around 233, 000 cubic kilometres in volume. However, around a quarter of the Red Sea is actually less than 160 feet deep! Despite its shallow parts, the Red Sea is hugely popular with divers(潜水者)from all over the world. The Red Sea is known for having one of the highest salinity levels among the world’s seas, largely thanks to the sheer heat, as well as the evaporation(蒸发) levels in the region. Usually, the salinity(盐度) of other water bodies is around 3. 5%. However, the salinity of the Red Sea is around 4. 1%. Because of this, it’s easy for people to float(漂浮) on the Red Sea, much like the famous Dead Sea. Most of us may think the Red Sea is red in color, but in fact it’s not. It looks like any other sea with its beautiful blue. However, the sea looks red sometimes. That’s because a kind of red-colored algae(海藻) grows in the water. The Red Sea is abundant with incredible aquatic life. For example, you are likely to find around 44 different species of sharks in these waters alone, along with around 1, 200 different fish species. 41. Where is the Red Sea? ________________________________ 42. Why is the Red Sea very salty? ________________________________ 43. Why can people float easily on the Red Sea? ________________________________ 44. Is the Red Sea really red all the time? ________________________________ 45. Why does the Red Sea sometimes look red? ________________________________ 第二节 写作（满分20分） 46. 最近几年AI快速发展, 给我们的生活带来了很大方便。请以“AI and My Study”为题, 谈一下你使用AI的感受, 分析一下AI的优点和缺点, 并号召大家正确使用AI。 提示信息： 1.AI对学习的好处； 2.过度依赖AI的坏处； 3.如何正确利用AI成为更好的学习者…… 要求： 1.包含所给信息, 可适当发挥； 2.不要出现真实校名和姓名； 3.不少于80词。 AI and My Study _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
