My cat Max escaped from the house one night, and I didn’t even realize he got out until the next morning. I had just gone through an awful breakup, and I was sick with worry and guilt.
At about 7:00 PM that evening, I got a knock on the door. A man asked if I was missing a cat. It turns out the man found Max after he’d been hit by a truck. He saw my cat lying in the road on the way to work, and stopped to see if he could do anything. He was an electrician (电工) with a full day of house visits, so he drove around with my cat in his car all day as he went through his work day. He kept Max warm, gave him water, and even split (撕) his ham sandwich with him.
I asked how he could possibly know it was my cat, for my cat is a master at getting out of his collar, so he didn’t have his tags when the man found him.
Turns out, after his shift (轮班), he went door to door down the entire road where he found Max, asking if anyone was missing a cat. He said he loved cats, and would want someone to do the same for him. He went back to his car, got my cat, and asked if it would be okay with him saying a few kind words for us. I don’t usually do this kind of practice, but I told him it was fine. He took a moment to wish my cat a quick recovery and a long life, then got back in his truck and drove away.
The whole interaction lasted maybe 5 minutes, and I never even got his name. My cat made a full recovery, and is sleeping next to me as I write this, 8 years later. It’s the nicest thing anyone has ever done for me, and it came at a time when I was feeling pretty down about humans.
I wish I knew who he was and I could thank him properly. I’ll never forget it.
4. How did the author feel when discovering Max was missing?
A. Awful and sick. B. Anxious and guilty.
C. Confused and sad. D. Angry and surprised.
5. What did the man do to help Max after finding him injured?
A. Took Max’s collar off.
B. Quarreled with the truck driver.
C. Provided warmth, water, and food.
D. Took care of Max by the side of the road.
6. How did the man find Max’s owner?
A. By saying a few kind words.
B. By calling nearby animal shelters.
C. By asking around the neighborhood.
D. By checking Max’s collar for an address.
7. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. A Cat’s Journey B. The Search for Max
C. A Community’s Effort D. An Unforgettable Kindness
【答案】4. B 5. C 6. C 7. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。作者刚经历失恋,猫Max便离家出走还被卡车撞伤。陌生电工发现后,悉心照料并挨家询问找到主人,猫完全康复,作者对这份善意铭记至今。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“I had just gone through an awful breakup, and I was sick with worry and guilt.(我刚刚经历了一场糟糕的分手,又担心又内疚,难受极了。)”可知,作者发现Max失踪时,既焦虑又内疚。故选B项。

【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据全文内容,尤其是最后一段“The whole interaction lasted maybe 5 minutes, and I never even got his name. My cat made a full recovery, and is sleeping next to me as I write this, 8 years later. It’s the nicest thing anyone has ever done for me, and it came at a time when I was feeling pretty down about humans. I wish I knew who he was and I could thank him properly. I’ll never forget it.(整个互动可能只持续了 5 分钟,我甚至都没问他的名字。我的猫完全康复了,8 年后的今天,我写这篇文章时,它就睡在我旁边。这是别人为我做过的最美好的事,而且发生在我对人性感到相当失望的时候。我希望我能知道他是谁,这样我就能好好感谢他。我永远不会忘记这件事。)”可知,文章主要讲述了一位男士救助作者受伤的猫并送还的暖心故事,突出这份难以忘怀的善意。所以D项An Unforgettable Kindness(一次难忘的善举)作为文章标题最合适。故选D项。

The rapid development of the internet and artificial intelligence (AI) has greatly changed human life. Among AI technologies, Deepseek, a smart system created in 2022 by Chinese scientists, stands out. Unlike traditional AI tools, Deepseek focuses on “understanding human intentions” rather than just following commands. For example, it can analyze users’ emotions from text messages and offer personalized suggestions.
Since its launch, Deepseek has been used in education, healthcare, and environmental protection. In schools, it helps teachers design courses based on students’ learning habits. In hospitals, it assists doctors in predicting diseases by studying medical data. More importantly, Deepseek’s energy-saving design reduces computing power consumption by 50%, making AI technology greener.
However, some experts warn that over-reliance (过度依赖) on AI might weaken human creativity. Prof. Li from Peking University says, “We should use AI as a tool, not a replacement for human thinking.” Deepseek’s team also agrees, emphasizing their goal is to “empower humans, not control them.”
Looking ahead, experts believe AI like Deepseek will reshape careers. Routine jobs like data entry may decline, but new roles in AI management and human-AI interaction design are emerging. As the system’s lead engineer Dr. Wang noted: “The real challenge isn’t building smarter machines, but teaching people to grow alongside them. In the future, humans will surely coexist harmoniously with artificial intelligence.”
8. What is Deepseek’s main research focus?
A. Following users’ orders quickly. B. Reducing energy consumption.
C. Understanding human intentions. D. Replacing human jobs.
9. How might Deepseek help environmental protection?
A. By controlling human behavior. B. Through its energy-saving technology.
C. By replacing environmental scientists. D. Through emotion analysis.
10. What does the underlined word “empower” most likely mean?
A. Control completely. B. Make weaker.
C. Give order to. D. Provide power to.
11. What is Dr. Wang’s attitude towards the development of AI according to the passage?
A. Doubtful. B. Optimistic. C. Indifferent. D. Anxious.
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了互联网和人工智能(AI)的快速发展极大地改变了人类的生活。在人工智能技术中,由中国科学家于2022年创造的智能系统Deepseek脱颖而出。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Unlike traditional AI tools, Deepseek focuses on “understanding human intentions” rather than just following commands.(与传统的人工智能工具不同,Deepseek专注于“理解人类的意图”,而不仅仅是遵循命令。)”可知,Deepseek的主要研究重点是“理解人类意图”,而不是仅仅遵循命令。故选C项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“More importantly, Deepseek’s energy-saving design reduces computing power consumption by 50%, making AI technology greener.(更重要的是,Deepseek的节能设计将计算功耗降低了50%,使人工智能技术更加环保。)”可知,Deepseek的节能设计使计算功耗降低了 50%,让人工智能技术更环保,即通过其节能技术来帮助环境保护。故选B项。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段中“Prof. Li from Peking University says, “We should use AI as a tool, not a replacement for human thinking.” Deepseek’s team also agrees, emphasizing their goal is to “empower humans, not control them.”(北京大学的李教授说:“我们应该把人工智能作为一种工具,而不是人类思维的替代品。”Deepseek的团队也同意这一观点,强调他们的目标是“empower人类,而不是控制他们”。)”可知,Deepseek的团队认为不应该用AI取代人类思维,而是要“empower”人类,而不是控制人类,结合前文提到AI是一种工具,可推断“empower”意思是“提供力量;赋能”,与D选项“Provide power to(为……提供动力)”意思相符。故选D项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“As the system’s lead engineer Dr. Wang noted: “The real challenge isn’t building smarter machines, but teaching people to grow alongside them. In the future, humans will surely coexist harmoniously with artificial intelligence.”(正如该系统的首席工程师王博士指出的那样:“真正的挑战不是制造更智能的机器,而是教会人们与它们一起成长。”未来,人类一定会与人工智能和谐共存。”)”可知,王博士认为真正的挑战不是制造更智能的机器,而是教会人们与它们一起成长,并且相信未来人类肯定会与人工智能和谐共处,由此可推断出王博士对人工智能的发展持乐观态度。故选B项。
D
The giant panda’s special black-and-white fur makes it one of the most recognizable animals on the planet. But why does it have this unique coloring? To hide from natural enemies, both in the snow and in the shadows, study lead author Tim Caro, a professor in the UC (University of California) Davis Department of Wildlife, Fish and Conservation Biology, said in a new statement. Moreover, the large black circles around a panda’s eyes may help other pandas recognize it, the researchers said.
Understanding why the giant panda has such noticeable color has been a long-term problem to solve. To find out the answer, Caro and his colleagues looked at photos of pandas and 195 other carnivore (食肉动物) species, including 39 subspecies of bears. Then, they recorded the coloring on each area of those animals’ bodies, and compared them with areas of the panda’s body. “Compared with the previous studies, the breakthrough in this study was treating each part of the body as an independent area,” Caro said.
The research team tried to figure out the purpose of the dark-colored furry areas. After going through many comparisons, the researchers determined that the white parts of the giant panda help it hide in the snow. In contrast, its black arms and legs help it hide in the shadows, they said. The panda’s white-and-black coloring didn’t appear to be related to temperature regulation. Nor did they find evidence that the dark circles around a panda’s eyes helped to make them look cuter.
“This really was a great effort by our team, finding and scoring thousands of images and scoring more than 10 areas per picture from over 20 possible colors,” study co-author Ted Stankowich, an assistant professor of biology at California State University, Long Beach, said in the statement. “Sometimes it takes hundreds of hours of hard work to answer the simplest question: Why is the panda black and white?”
12. Why did Caro study the photos of pandas and 195 other carnivore species?
A. To record the number of photos.
B. To research more carnivore species.
C. To figure out the reason behind pandas’ special color.
D. To compare the difference between pandas and other carnivore species.
13. What study method did the researchers use to draw the conclusion?
A. Doing experiments. B. Making comparisons.
C. Scoring pandas’ behavior in nature. D. Observing pandas in the wild.
14. What can we learn about pandas’ unique coloring?
A. The white and black parts help pandas to hide.
B. The function of the dark-colored areas is unknown.
C. The white-and-black coloring will change with temperature.
D. The dark circles around pandas’ eyes help make them look cuter.
15. What can be inferred from Ted Stankowich’s words?
A. The study is a great success.
B. Hundreds of hours of hard work is not worthwhile.
C. It needs efforts to find the truth behind simple questions.
D. Simple issues shouldn’t take scientists so much time to study.
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. A 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲述了加州大学戴维斯分校的研究人员针对大熊猫为什么有特殊黑白毛色进行了一项研究,研究发现有这种毛色是为了在雪中和阴影中躲避天敌。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Understanding why the giant panda has such noticeable color has been a long-term problem to solve. To find out the answer, Caro and his colleagues looked at photos of pandas and 195 other carnivore (食肉动物) species, including 39 subspecies of bears.(了解大熊猫为什么有如此明显的颜色一直是一个长期需要解决的问题。为了找到答案,卡罗和他的同事们研究了大熊猫和其他195种食肉动物的照片,其中包括39种熊的亚种)”可知,卡罗要研究大熊猫和其他195种食肉动物的照片是为了找出熊猫特殊颜色背后的原因。故选C项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“To find out the answer, Caro and his colleagues looked at photos of pandas and 195 other carnivore (食肉动物) species, including 39 subspecies of bears. Then, they recorded the coloring on each area of those animals’ bodies, and compared them with areas of the panda’s body. “Compared with the previous studies, the breakthrough in this study was treating each part of the body as an independent area,” Caro said.(为了找到答案,卡罗和他的同事们研究了大熊猫和其他195种食肉动物的照片,其中包括39种熊的亚种。然后,他们记录下这些动物身体每个区域的颜色,并将它们与熊猫身体的区域进行比较。卡罗说:“与以前的研究相比,这项研究的突破是将身体的每个部位视为一个独立的区域。”)”可知,研究人员用做比较的方法得出结论。故选B项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“The research team tried to figure out the purpose of the dark-colored furry areas. After going through many comparisons, the researchers determined that the white parts of the giant panda help it hide in the snow. In contrast, its black arms and legs help it hide in the shadows, they said.(研究小组试图弄清楚这些深色毛茸茸的区域的目的。经过多次比较,研究人员确定大熊猫的白色部分有助于它隐藏在雪中。他们说,相比之下,它黑色的手臂和腿帮助它隐藏在阴影中)”可知,关于熊猫独特的颜色我们能了解到白色和黑色的部分帮助熊猫隐藏。故选A项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中Ted Stankowich的话“Sometimes it takes hundreds of hours of hard work to answer the simplest question: Why is the panda black and white?(有时候,需要数百个小时的努力工作才能回答一个最简单的问题:为什么熊猫是黑白的?)”可推测出,要弄清楚简单问题背后的原因需要花费努力。故选C项。

My cat Max escaped from the house one night, and I didn’t even realize he got out until the next morning. I had just gone through an awful breakup, and I was sick with worry and guilt.
At about 7:00 PM that evening, I got a knock on the door. A man asked if I was missing a cat. It turns out the man found Max after he’d been hit by a truck. He saw my cat lying in the road on the way to work, and stopped to see if he could do anything. He was an electrician (电工) with a full day of house visits, so he drove around with my cat in his car all day as he went through his work day. He kept Max warm, gave him water, and even split (撕) his ham sandwich with him.
I asked how he could possibly know it was my cat, for my cat is a master at getting out of his collar, so he didn’t have his tags when the man found him.
Turns out, after his shift (轮班), he went door to door down the entire road where he found Max, asking if anyone was missing a cat. He said he loved cats, and would want someone to do the same for him. He went back to his car, got my cat, and asked if it would be okay with him saying a few kind words for us. I don’t usually do this kind of practice, but I told him it was fine. He took a moment to wish my cat a quick recovery and a long life, then got back in his truck and drove away.
The whole interaction lasted maybe 5 minutes, and I never even got his name. My cat made a full recovery, and is sleeping next to me as I write this, 8 years later. It’s the nicest thing anyone has ever done for me, and it came at a time when I was feeling pretty down about humans.
I wish I knew who he was and I could thank him properly. I’ll never forget it.
4. How did the author feel when discovering Max was missing?
A. Awful and sick. B. Anxious and guilty.
C. Confused and sad. D. Angry and surprised.
5. What did the man do to help Max after finding him injured?
A. Took Max’s collar off.
B. Quarreled with the truck driver.
C. Provided warmth, water, and food.
D. Took care of Max by the side of the road.

A. By saying a few kind words.
B. By calling nearby animal shelters.
C. By asking around the neighborhood.
D. By checking Max’s collar for an address.
7. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. A Cat’s Journey B. The Search for Max
C. A Community’s Effort D. An Unforgettable Kindness

The rapid development of the internet and artificial intelligence (AI) has greatly changed human life. Among AI technologies, Deepseek, a smart system created in 2022 by Chinese scientists, stands out. Unlike traditional AI tools, Deepseek focuses on “understanding human intentions” rather than just following commands. For example, it can analyze users’ emotions from text messages and offer personalized suggestions.
Since its launch, Deepseek has been used in education, healthcare, and environmental protection. In schools, it helps teachers design courses based on students’ learning habits. In hospitals, it assists doctors in predicting diseases by studying medical data. More importantly, Deepseek’s energy-saving design reduces computing power consumption by 50%, making AI technology greener.
However, some experts warn that over-reliance (过度依赖) on AI might weaken human creativity. Prof. Li from Peking University says, “We should use AI as a tool, not a replacement for human thinking.” Deepseek’s team also agrees, emphasizing their goal is to “empower humans, not control them.”
Looking ahead, experts believe AI like Deepseek will reshape careers. Routine jobs like data entry may decline, but new roles in AI management and human-AI interaction design are emerging. As the system’s lead engineer Dr. Wang noted: “The real challenge isn’t building smarter machines, but teaching people to grow alongside them. In the future, humans will surely coexist harmoniously with artificial intelligence.”

The giant panda’s special black-and-white fur makes it one of the most recognizable animals on the planet. But why does it have this unique coloring? To hide from natural enemies, both in the snow and in the shadows, study lead author Tim Caro, a professor in the UC (University of California) Davis Department of Wildlife, Fish and Conservation Biology, said in a new statement. Moreover, the large black circles around a panda’s eyes may help other pandas recognize it, the researchers said.
Understanding why the giant panda has such noticeable color has been a long-term problem to solve. To find out the answer, Caro and his colleagues looked at photos of pandas and 195 other carnivore (食肉动物) species, including 39 subspecies of bears. Then, they recorded the coloring on each area of those animals’ bodies, and compared them with areas of the panda’s body. “Compared with the previous studies, the breakthrough in this study was treating each part of the body as an independent area,” Caro said.
The research team tried to figure out the purpose of the dark-colored furry areas. After going through many comparisons, the researchers determined that the white parts of the giant panda help it hide in the snow. In contrast, its black arms and legs help it hide in the shadows, they said. The panda’s white-and-black coloring didn’t appear to be related to temperature regulation. Nor did they find evidence that the dark circles around a panda’s eyes helped to make them look cuter.
“This really was a great effort by our team, finding and scoring thousands of images and scoring more than 10 areas per picture from over 20 possible colors,” study co-author Ted Stankowich, an assistant professor of biology at California State University, Long Beach, said in the statement. “Sometimes it takes hundreds of hours of hard work to answer the simplest question: Why is the panda black and white?”
12. Why did Caro study the photos of pandas and 195 other carnivore species?
A. To record the number of photos.
B. To research more carnivore species.
C. To figure out the reason behind pandas’ special color.
D. To compare the difference between pandas and other carnivore species.
13. What study method did the researchers use to draw the conclusion?
A. Doing experiments. B. Making comparisons.
C. Scoring pandas’ behavior in nature. D. Observing pandas in the wild.
14. What can we learn about pandas’ unique coloring?
A. The white and black parts help pandas to hide.
B. The function of the dark-colored areas is unknown.
C. The white-and-black coloring will change with temperature.
D. The dark circles around pandas’ eyes help make them look cuter.
15. What can be inferred from Ted Stankowich’s words?
A. The study is a great success.
B. Hundreds of hours of hard work is not worthwhile.
C. It needs efforts to find the truth behind simple questions.
D. Simple issues shouldn’t take scientists so much time to study.
