C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了Urban Bike Shop举办的为期5天的自制自行车工坊活动。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Our committed trainers will take you through step by step instructions in this 5-day workshop to guide you in building your own bike. This workshop will not only provide a satisfying hands-on experience but will also expand your knowledge of bike parts, how they work and how to maintain them.(我们敬业的教练将在这个为期5天的工坊里为您提供逐步指导，引导你打造自己的自行车。这个工坊不仅会提供令人满意的实践体验，还会拓展你对自行车部件、它们的工作原理以及如何保养它们的知识)”可知，参与者在工坊中可以获得制造自行车的专门知识。故选B项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据文中“Course Fees: $500 per participant (课程费用：每位学员500美元)”以及第二张图表中“10% Early Bird Discount For Sign ups Before 1 April (4月1日前报名可享9折优惠)”和“*Membership entitles you to an additional cash discount of $30(*会员资格使你享有30美元的额外现金折扣)”可知，课程费用每人500美元，4月1日前报名有10%的早鸟折扣，会员还有额外30美元的现金折扣。3月报名属于早鸟优惠，先打九折，500×(1-10%) = 450美元，会员再减去30美元，450-30 =420美元。所以Urban Bike Shop的会员3月报名需支付420美元。故选A项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“To promote the joy of cycling and serve as a platform where cyclists can set fitness goals, achieve them, and be rewarded for their efforts, we hope to connect cyclists and inspire them to share their experiences with our year long events.(为了推广骑行的乐趣，成为一个让骑行者可以设定健身目标、实现目标并因努力而获得奖励的平台，我们希望通过全年的活动将骑行者联系起来，并激励他们分享自己的经验)”可知，Urban Bike Shop的长期目标是为骑行者创建一个互动网络。故选C项。 B For a long time, I kept a selection of books on a shelf next to my bed that I called my “heartbooks”. To qualify for a place on the shelf, a book had to be not only one I loved, but one that mattered. There was one book that never made it onto that shelf, though I read it in high school: Writing Down the Bones by Natalie Goldberg. I can still remember the day I bought it. It was summer and I must have been 14 or 15. Desperate to get out of my house, I rode my bike into town and walked into the bookstore. I was going through the shelf of books on writing and it caught my eye. I picked it up, read a few pages, and bought it. Then I took it with me to a park, read the first few chapters, and opened my notebook to write. It’s a fairly straightforward writing book. Goldberg’s method is simple: you choose a topic, set a timer, and write for 10, 15, or 20 minutes without picking up your pen. Free writing, timed writing, writing topics: anyone who has taken a creative writing class may have encountered these things. It’s not earth-shattering. There was nothing particularly new or unusual about the book so I can’t say why it attracted me so much. But it changed everything. I went from being someone who enjoyed writing to being a writer. During my teen years and early twenties, following Goldberg’s method was at the core of my identity. No matter where I was or what I was doing, I filled notebooks. When I eventually started writing fiction, I did the same thing. The “I” in my notebooks became someone else, but I held to the same practice. This writing practice led me to a writing group in Boston. It led me to my current career. It led me, in so many ways, to myself. Becoming a writer allowed me to become so many other things: an activist, a business owner, a farmer, a baker... Writing is where I found my confidence. It was where becoming curious about the world. From that, everything else has followed. 4. How did the author encounter Writing Down the Bones? A. By following a selection of “heart books”. B. By referring to a book list about writing. C. By recommendation of Natalie Goldberg. D. By seeking writing books on a bookshelf. 5. What does the word “earth-shattering” underlined in paragraph 3 mean? A. Remarkable. B. Useful. C. Controversial. D. Amusing. 6. What can we infer about Writing Down the Bones? A. It inspired the author to be a writer. B. It was the first novel the author read. C. It made the author start to love writing. D. It is one of the books the author reads most. 7. Which of the following is answered by the last paragraph? A. What is the author’s life like right now? B. What did the author do in the writing group? C. How has the writing practice shaped the author? D. Why did the author give up the writing practice? 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. A 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。本文讲述了作者高中时读到的一本书《Writing Down the Bones》，这本书让作者从一个喜欢写作的人变成了一个真正的作家，并且作者的写作实践在多个方面塑造了作者自己。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“I was going through the shelf of books on writing and it caught my eye. I picked it up, read a few pages, and bought it.(我正在浏览写作书籍的书架，它引起了我的注意。我拿起它，读了几页，然后买了它。)”可知，作者是通过在书架上寻找写作书籍时遇到《Writing Down the Bones》这本书的。故选D。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线单词上一句“Free writing, timed writing, writing topics: anyone who has taken a creative writing class may have encountered these things.(自由写作，定时写作，写作主题：任何上过创意写作课的人都可能遇到过这些事情)”以及划线单词下一句“There was nothing particularly new or unusual about the book so I can’t say why it attracted me so much. (这本书并没有什么特别新颖或不同寻常的地方，所以我也说不出为什么它如此吸引我)”可推测，任何上过创意写作课的人都可能遇到过的事情在说中都有所描述，并且这本书没有什么特别新颖或不同寻常的地方。因此猜测划线单词earth-shattering意为“引人注目的”，和空前的“not”结合，指的是书中的方法并不是那么引人注目。故选A。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“But it changed everything. I went from being someone who enjoyed writing to being a writer.(但它改变了一切。我从一个喜欢写作的人变成了一个作家)”可知，《Writing Down the Bones》这本书激发了作者成为作家的灵感。故选A。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“This writing practice led me to a writing group in Boston. It led me to my current career. It led me, in so many ways, to myself. Becoming a writer allowed me to become so many other things: an activist, a business owner, a farmer, a baker... Writing is where I found my confidence. It was where becoming curious about the world. From that, everything else has followed.(这种写作练习让我结识了一个位于波士顿的写作团体。它引领我走上了现在的职业道路。在很多方面，它引领我走向了自我。成为一名作家使我能够成为许多其他身份：一位活动家、一位企业主、一位农民、一位面包师……写作是我获得自信的地方。也是我开始对这个世界充满好奇的地方。由此，其他的一切也随之而来)”可知，最后一段讲述的是这种写作练习使作者拥有了现在的职业，成为了一名作家，并且使作者成为了许多其他的身份：一个活动家，一个企业主，一个农民，一个面包师等。由此可推测，这一段回答了选项C“写作练习如何塑造了作者？”这一问题。故选C。 C Doctor Dolittle, the well-known, fictional naturalist who famously possesses the ability to converse with animals and understand their languages has now inspired a high-paying science prize aimed at cracking the challenge of interspecies communication. A grand prize of $500,000, awaits whichever research team can make real progress: not just decoding the language of another species but using it to draw a reply from an animal. Last week, an initial $100,000 went to a US team studying dolphin whistles — after decades of recording bottlenose dolphins in Florida, they identified around 20 distinct messaging whistles. The Coller Dolittle Challenge financed by Jeremy Coller, a vegan and animal lover, is unashamedly modelled on the Turing test (图灵测试). That 20th-century test promotes efforts to design a machine capable of imitating human conversation, and became a touchstone in the evolution of AI. It also became a focus for concerns about machines tricking, even taking over, humans. The ability to commune with other species is likely to raise similar, unsettling questions as research progresses. If we were able to decode animal chatter, should this knowledge change how we treat them, whether as pets, labour or food? The prize presents a moral challenge and it forces us to reconsider our relationships with other species. Philosopher Jonathan Birch, also a judge of the Jeremy Coller Centre, stressed that the Challenge is looking beyond the interspecies communication we have with pets, or that a farmer has with a sheepdog. Those relationships involve signalling and behavioural responses, Birch explains, “but that’s not telling us how animals communicate with each other... this prize is about understanding it so well that we can start to join the conversation.” While Coller hopes his charity will reshape our attitude to animals, the truth is that even groundbreaking research has largely failed to move the dial on their welfare. Recent work on cephalopod’s (头足类动物) intelligence has not stopped plans to farm the creatures. We might one day be able to understand what animals are saying — but there is no guarantee we will listen. 8. Why is Turing test mentioned in the passage? A. To stress its role and value in AI progress. B. To show its difference from the Challenge. C. To warn of concerns the Challenge may face. D. To show its use in interspecies communication. 9. Which research would Birch approve of to win the prize? A. People communicating with their pets. B. People directing sheepdogs during work. C. Researchers recording how cattle communicate. D. Researchers interacting with birds using whistles. 10. What does the “move the dial” mean in the last paragraph? A. Make a change. B. Win the prize. C. Slow the process. D. Continue the research. 11. What’s the author’s attitude toward the practical effect of the research? A. Optimistic. B. Doubtful. C. Objective. D. Dismissive. 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. A 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍以杜立德医生为灵感设立的科勒·杜立德挑战奖，旨在推动跨物种交流研究，同时探讨该研究面临的道德问题与实际效果争议。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“The Coller Dolittle Challenge financed by Jeremy Coller, a vegan and animal lover, is unashamedly modelled on the Turing test (图灵测试). That 20th-century test promotes efforts to design a machine capable of imitating human conversation, and became a touchstone in the evolution of AI. It also became a focus for concerns about machines tricking, even taking over, humans. The ability to commune with other species is likely to raise similar, unsettling questions as research progresses. (由素食主义者兼动物爱好者杰里米·科勒资助的“科勒·杜立德挑战奖”，毫不避讳地以图灵测试为蓝本。这项诞生于20世纪的测试，推动了人们研发能够模仿人类对话的机器，成为人工智能发展史上的一块试金石。它同时也引发了人们的担忧——担心机器会欺骗甚至掌控人类。而随着研究的推进，与其他物种进行交流的能力，也可能引发类似的、令人不安的问题)”可知，提及图灵测试是为了指出该挑战奖可能面临与图灵测试类似的担忧。故选C项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Philosopher Jonathan Birch, also a judge of the Jeremy Coller Centre, stressed that the Challenge is looking beyond the interspecies communication we have with pets, or that a farmer has with a sheepdog. Those relationships involve signalling and behavioural responses, Birch explains, “but that’s not telling us how animals communicate with each other... this prize is about understanding it so well that we can start to join the conversation.”(哲学家乔纳森·伯奇同时也是杰里米·科勒中心的评委，他强调，该挑战关注的跨物种交流，远不止我们与宠物之间、或是农民与牧羊犬之间的那种交流。伯奇解释道：“那些关系涉及信号传递和行为反应，但这并不能让我们了解动物之间是如何交流的……这个奖项的目的，是要充分理解动物间的交流方式，从而让我们能够参与到这种交流之中。”)”可知，伯奇认可的获奖研究应是能让人类参与到动物交流中的研究，“研究人员用口哨与鸟类互动”符合“参与交流”的特点。故选D项。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据最后一段中的“While Coller hopes his charity will reshape our attitude to animals, the truth is that even groundbreaking research has largely failed to move the dial on their welfare. Recent work on cephalopod’s intelligence has not stopped plans to farm the creatures.(虽然科勒希望他的慈善项目能改变我们对动物的态度，但事实是，即使是突破性的研究，在很大程度上也未能move the dial动物的福利状况。最近关于头足类动物智力的研究，也未能阻止养殖这类动物的计划)”可知，“头足类动物智力研究未能阻止其养殖计划”是对“未能move the dial on their welfare”的举例说明，由此可推测“move the dial”意为“产生改变、带来影响”。故选A项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“While Coller hopes his charity will reshape our attitude to animals, the truth is that even groundbreaking research has largely failed to move the dial on their welfare. Recent work on cephalopod’s (头足类动物) intelligence has not stopped plans to farm the creatures. We might one day be able to understand what animals are saying — but there is no guarantee we will listen. (虽然科勒希望他的慈善项目能改变我们对动物的态度，但事实是，即便具有突破性的研究，在很大程度上也未能改变动物的福利状况。最近关于头足类动物智力的研究，并未阻止人们养殖这类动物的计划。也许有一天我们能理解动物在说什么——但无法保证我们会听从它们的声音)”可知，作者指出研究在改善动物福利方面效果有限，对研究的实际效果持怀疑态度。故选B项。 D A colorful colony of photosynthetic (光合的) cyanobacteria, known as blue-green algae (藻), has successfully powered a computer microprocessor for more than six months, according to a study published in the journal Energy & Environmental Science. The algae-computer system was placed in the window of biochemist Paolo Bombell’s home. What he saw next really blew his mind: It sat there from February to August, and all the while it was working. And even after the microprocessor has been disconnected, the cyanobacteria device continues to produce current. “Given the right conditions of light, temperature and water, I cannot predict when it will stop,” said Bombelli. Cyanobacteria harvest energy from sunlight and make it into food for themselves. For this study, the researchers put the power-providing microorganisms into a plastic and steel enclosure, about the size of an AA battery, along with an aluminum anode (铝正极). Throughout the experiment, the connected microprocessor was programmed to do a bunch of calculations, and then check its own work. It did this in a 45-minute period, followed by 15 minutes of standby, continuously for months with the cyanobacteria unit as its only power source. Even though the algae rely on a light source to feed, the bio-system continued to produce enough power to run the microprocessor in the dark. The scientists basically put down this phenomenon to leftovers. When there was light, the cyanobacteria cooked up an over-abundance of food, and when it was dark the microorganisms kept chewing on the extras. According to Chris Howe, senior author of the study, the results suggest that the little bio-based battery alternative could serve as a way to power small electronics without rare earth elements, which are in short supply and under growing demand. Plus, the system could also help bridge the electricity divide, providing another power supply for people in rural areas or low-income countries. Though the experiment’s results are promising, it’s important to keep in mind that the computer processor tested uses very little energy — requiring only 0.3 microwatts to run. More research is needed to know exactly how much the tiny AA-battery-sized device could scale up. Howe said, Putting one on your roof isn’t going to provide the power supply for your house at this stage.” 12. Which of the following facts about the algae-computer system surprised Bombelli? A. It can function without water. B. It can convert light into power. C. It can work for a long time. D. It can stand high temperatures. 13. What can we learn about the bio-system from paragraph 4? A. It stores light for later use. B. It works normally in the dark. C. It consumes little food in the dark. D. It produces food for people. 14. What will the research focus on next? A. How the device will work on the roof B. Whether the device’s size can be reduced. C. Whether the device can play a bigger role. D. How the device will adapt to new environments. 15. What is the best title for the passage? A. The Future of Household Electricity Supply B. Blue-Green Algae: A New Source of Food C. An Algae-Powered Device Runs Computer for Months D. A Promising Bio-Battery Creates the Miracle 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. C 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一种由蓝绿藻驱动的计算机微处理器系统，该系统能长时间运行，展示了生物能源的潜力。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“What he saw next really blew his mind: It sat there from February to August, and all the while it was working.(接下来他所看到的让他大吃一惊：它从二月待到八月，而且一直在工作)”可知，让Bombelli感到惊讶的是藻类计算机系统能长时间工作。故选C项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Even though the algae rely on a light source to feed, the bio-system continued to produce enough power to run the microprocessor in the dark.(尽管藻类依靠光源来获取食物，但生物系统在黑暗中仍能继续产生足够的电力来运行微处理器)”可知，生物系统在黑暗中能正常工作。故选B项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Though the experiment’s results are promising, it’s important to keep in mind that the computer processor tested uses very little energy — requiring only 0.3 microwatts to run. More research is needed to know exactly how much the tiny AA-battery-sized device could scale up.(尽管实验结果很有希望，但重要的是要记住，测试的计算机处理器消耗的能量非常少——运行仅需要0.3微瓦。需要更多的研究来确切知道这个微小的AA电池大小的设备能扩大到什么程度)”可知，接下来的研究将关注这个设备是否能发挥更大的作用。故选C项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“A colorful colony of photosynthetic (光合的) cyanobacteria, known as blue-green algae (藻), has successfully powered a computer microprocessor for more than six months, according to a study published in the journal Energy & Environmental Science. (根据发表在《能源与环境科学》杂志上的一项研究，一种被称为蓝绿藻的光合蓝细菌的彩色菌落，已经成功地为计算机微处理器供电六个多月)”可知，本文主要介绍了一种由蓝绿藻驱动的计算机微处理器系统能长时间运行，因此最佳标题是“An Algae-Powered Device Runs Computer for Months (一个由藻类驱动的设备为计算机运行数月)”。故选C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。 Everybody seems to have a unique way to learn a language. However, we all come to the same result of speaking at most two languages fluently. ____16____ Unbelievable as it may sound, those polyglots (通晓多语言者) have a good command of more than two languages, some of whom even can speak eight or more kinds of languages.

I was a quiet kid, neither getting in much trouble nor getting ____21____. Somehow, plane geometry was really ____22____ for me in his class. Toward the end of the year, Mr. Dalton wanted to ____23____ our knowledge and gave us a 25-question true/false nationally standardized test. The test presented each problem with a conclusion shown. We were required to write out the ____24____ using our theorems (定理). I completed 24 problems quickly, but number seventeen was a lion ____25____. I spent thirty minutes on that proof and ____26____ I pulled it off with all my efforts. With ____27____ I marked the question true and handed in the test. The next day I got my score, a 96, and number seventeen was ____28____ wrong. When Mr. Dalton asked if there were any questions, for the first time, my hand ____29____. Instead of ____30____ this was a nationally standardized test and that there couldn’t be any ____31____, Mr. Dalton did the most powerful thing I’ve ever seen a teacher do: he held out the chalk to me with an encouraging smile. Murmurs spread through the classroom — some classmates exchanged ____32____ glances, while others leaned forward, curiosity sparking in their eyes. I was hesitant for a moment, then went to the board and demonstrated my proof, using the whole board and three different colors of chalk. In the end, everyone clapped. Mr. Dalton gave ____33____ for my answer, and I ended up with a full mark.

But for me, it was the first challenge I encountered as an international student in Ireland. The pronunciation system of the Chinese language is quite different from that of English. For native speakers of English, some Chinese words are rather difficult to pronounce. My given name Qiuyu (秋雨), for instance, happened to be a great challenge for many of them. Every time I gave a self-introduction, I had to explain how to pronounce my name at least five times, yet they still could not say it the way I did. Once in a lecture, the professor tried repeating my name after me over and over in front of thirty classmates. I really did not know whether I should continue correcting him or simply drop the matter. I feared that my classmates might grow tired of my efforts or even lose patience with me. After all, I did care about how others would think of me. I realized that if I didn’t stop, the entire lecture would be ruined. “It’s okay, professor,” I shrugged (耸肩). The awkward moment ended with the class erupting into laughter. I forced a smile, unsure how to respond further. After that incident, I stopped acting as a “Chinese teacher.” Instead of correcting others when they were struggling to pronounce my name, I just smiled and nodded approvingly. This approach spared me the discomfort of having to over-explain. However, I soon found that by doing so, I might be losing something more important: the opportunity to share a small part of my cultural identity. 注意： (1) 续写词数应为150个左右； (2) 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 In a class discussion, I was invited to explain the meaning of my name. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Many of my classmates got interested and came up to me after class. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: In a class discussion, I was invited to explain the meaning of my name. Standing up, I felt a mix of nervousness and excitement. “My name, Qiuyu, combines the characters for autumn and rain in Chinese,” I began, my voice steady. “Autumn represents harvest and maturity, while rain symbolizes nourishment and growth. Together, they embody a time of abundance and renewal.” As I spoke, I noticed the rapt attention of my classmates, their eyes reflecting curiosity and respect. It was a moment of connection, a bridge built between cultures through the simple act of sharing my name. Many of my classmates got interested and came up to me after class. They surrounded me, their questions pouring out like a stream. “What other names have beautiful meanings in Chinese?” “Can you teach us how to write our names in Chinese characters?” I smiled, feeling a warmth spread through me. I took out a piece of paper and began to sketch out characters, explaining each stroke and its significance. Through this interaction, I realized that by embracing my cultural identity, I was not only preserving my heritage but also enriching the lives of those around me. It was a small yet meaningful step towards fostering cultural understanding and appreciation. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了作者作为国际学生在爱尔兰因中文名字发音难而遭遇挑战，之后在一次课堂讨论中分享名字含义，意识到分享文化身份重要性，并借此与同学增进文化理解的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“在课堂讨论中，我被邀请解释我名字的含义。”可知，第一段可描写作者在课堂讨论中解释自己名字的含义，并感受到同学们的专注和尊重，意识到这是一个文化交流的契机。 ②由第二段首句内容“我的许多同学都很感兴趣，下课后都来找我。”可知，第二段可描写课后同学们对作者名字背后的文化产生浓厚兴趣，纷纷提问，作者通过教他们写中文名字，进一步加深了彼此的文化理解和欣赏。 2.续写线索：课堂受邀请解释名字的含义——作者阐释名字的寓意——同学们专注倾听——同学们对名字背后的文化感兴趣——作者教他们写中文名字——感悟文化桥接 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①代表：represent/stand for ②解释：explain/illustrate ③保护：preserve/protect 情绪类 ①紧张：nervousness/tension ②兴奋：excitement/thrill 【点睛】【高分句型1】As I spoke, I noticed the rapt attention of my classmates, their eyes reflecting curiosity and respect.(运用了as引导的状语从句以及独立主格结构) 【高分句型2】Through this interaction, I realized that by embracing my cultural identity, I was not only preserving my heritage but also enriching the lives of those around me.(运用了that引导的宾语从句和“not only...but also...”连接两个并列结构) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 成都列五中学2025-2026学年度（下）阶段性考试（一） 高2024级 英语 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5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，并标在试卷的相应位置。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.

B For a long time, I kept a selection of books on a shelf next to my bed that I called my “heartbooks”. To qualify for a place on the shelf, a book had to be not only one I loved, but one that mattered. There was one book that never made it onto that shelf, though I read it in high school: Writing Down the Bones by Natalie Goldberg. I can still remember the day I bought it. It was summer and I must have been 14 or 15. Desperate to get out of my house, I rode my bike into town and walked into the bookstore. I was going through the shelf of books on writing and it caught my eye. I picked it up, read a few pages, and bought it. Then I took it with me to a park, read the first few chapters, and opened my notebook to write. It’s a fairly straightforward writing book. Goldberg’s method is simple: you choose a topic, set a timer, and write for 10, 15, or 20 minutes without picking up your pen. Free writing, timed writing, writing topics: anyone who has taken a creative writing class may have encountered these things. It’s not earth-shattering. There was nothing particularly new or unusual about the book so I can’t say why it attracted me so much. But it changed everything. I went from being someone who enjoyed writing to being a writer. During my teen years and early twenties, following Goldberg’s method was at the core of my identity. No matter where I was or what I was doing, I filled notebooks. When I eventually started writing fiction, I did the same thing. The “I” in my notebooks became someone else, but I held to the same practice. This writing practice led me to a writing group in Boston. It led me to my current career. It led me, in so many ways, to myself. Becoming a writer allowed me to become so many other things: an activist, a business owner, a farmer, a baker... Writing is where I found my confidence. It was where becoming curious about the world. From that, everything else has followed. 4. How did the author encounter Writing Down the Bones? A. By following a selection of “heart books”. B. By referring to a book list about writing. C. By recommendation of Natalie Goldberg. D. By seeking writing books on a bookshelf. 5. What does the word “earth-shattering” underlined in paragraph 3 mean? A. Remarkable. B. Useful. C. Controversial. D. Amusing. 6. What can we infer about Writing Down the Bones? A. It inspired the author to be a writer. B. It was the first novel the author read. C. It made the author start to love writing. D. It is one of the books the author reads most. 7. Which of the following is answered by the last paragraph? A. What is the author’s life like right now? B. What did the author do in the writing group? C. How has the writing practice shaped the author? D. Why did the author give up the writing practice? C Doctor Dolittle, the well-known, fictional naturalist who famously possesses the ability to converse with animals and understand their languages has now inspired a high-paying science prize aimed at cracking the challenge of interspecies communication. A grand prize of $500,000, awaits whichever research team can make real progress: not just decoding the language of another species but using it to draw a reply from an animal. Last week, an initial $100,000 went to a US team studying dolphin whistles — after decades of recording bottlenose dolphins in Florida, they identified around 20 distinct messaging whistles. The Coller Dolittle Challenge financed by Jeremy Coller, a vegan and animal lover, is unashamedly modelled on the Turing test (图灵测试). That 20th-century test promotes efforts to design a machine capable of imitating human conversation, and became a touchstone in the evolution of AI. It also became a focus for concerns about machines tricking, even taking over, humans. The ability to commune with other species is likely to raise similar, unsettling questions as research progresses. If we were able to decode animal chatter, should this knowledge change how we treat them, whether as pets, labour or food? The prize presents a moral challenge and it forces us to reconsider our relationships with other species. Philosopher Jonathan Birch, also a judge of the Jeremy Coller Centre, stressed that the Challenge is looking beyond the interspecies communication we have with pets, or that a farmer has with a sheepdog. Those relationships involve signalling and behavioural responses, Birch explains, “but that’s not telling us how animals communicate with each other... this prize is about understanding it so well that we can start to join the conversation.” While Coller hopes his charity will reshape our attitude to animals, the truth is that even groundbreaking research has largely failed to move the dial on their welfare. Recent work on cephalopod’s (头足类动物) intelligence has not stopped plans to farm the creatures. We might one day be able to understand what animals are saying — but there is no guarantee we will listen. 8. Why is Turing test mentioned in the passage? A. To stress its role and value in AI progress. B. To show its difference from the Challenge. C. To warn of concerns the Challenge may face. D. To show its use in interspecies communication. 9. Which research would Birch approve of to win the prize? A. People communicating with their pets. B. People directing sheepdogs during work. C. Researchers recording how cattle communicate. D. Researchers interacting with birds using whistles. 10. What does the “move the dial” mean in the last paragraph? A. Make a change. B. Win the prize. C. Slow the process. D. Continue the research. 11. What’s the author’s attitude toward the practical effect of the research? A. Optimistic. B. Doubtful. C. Objective. D. Dismissive. D A colorful colony of photosynthetic (光合的) cyanobacteria, known as blue-green algae (藻), has successfully powered a computer microprocessor for more than six months, according to a study published in the journal Energy & Environmental Science. The algae-computer system was placed in the window of biochemist Paolo Bombell’s home. What he saw next really blew his mind: It sat there from February to August, and all the while it was working. And even after the microprocessor has been disconnected, the cyanobacteria device continues to produce current. “Given the right conditions of light, temperature and water, I cannot predict when it will stop,” said Bombelli. Cyanobacteria harvest energy from sunlight and make it into food for themselves. For this study, the researchers put the power-providing microorganisms into a plastic and steel enclosure, about the size of an AA battery, along with an aluminum anode (铝正极). Throughout the experiment, the connected microprocessor was programmed to do a bunch of calculations, and then check its own work. It did this in a 45-minute period, followed by 15 minutes of standby, continuously for months with the cyanobacteria unit as its only power source. Even though the algae rely on a light source to feed, the bio-system continued to produce enough power to run the microprocessor in the dark. The scientists basically put down this phenomenon to leftovers. When there was light, the cyanobacteria cooked up an over-abundance of food, and when it was dark the microorganisms kept chewing on the extras. According to Chris Howe, senior author of the study, the results suggest that the little bio-based battery alternative could serve as a way to power small electronics without rare earth elements, which are in short supply and under growing demand. Plus, the system could also help bridge the electricity divide, providing another power supply for people in rural areas or low-income countries. Though the experiment’s results are promising, it’s important to keep in mind that the computer processor tested uses very little energy — requiring only 0.3 microwatts to run. More research is needed to know exactly how much the tiny AA-battery-sized device could scale up. Howe said, Putting one on your roof isn’t going to provide the power supply for your house at this stage.” 12. Which of the following facts about the algae-computer system surprised Bombelli? A. It can function without water. B. It can convert light into power. C. It can work for a long time. D. It can stand high temperatures. 13. What can we learn about the bio-system from paragraph 4? A. It stores light for later use. B. It works normally in the dark. C. It consumes little food in the dark. D. It produces food for people. 14. What will the research focus on next? A. How the device will work on the roof B. Whether the device’s size can be reduced. C. Whether the device can play a bigger role. D. How the device will adapt to new environments. 15. What is the best title for the passage? A. The Future of Household Electricity Supply B. Blue-Green Algae: A New Source of Food C. An Algae-Powered Device Runs Computer for Months D. A Promising Bio-Battery Creates the Miracle 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。 Everybody seems to have a unique way to learn a language. However, we all come to the same result of speaking at most two languages fluently. ____16____ Unbelievable as it may sound, those polyglots (通晓多语言者) have a good command of more than two languages, some of whom even can speak eight or more kinds of languages. You may wonder how they do that and what their secrets are. But the fact is that they simply love learning languages. The one thing they all have in common is that they just find ways to enjoy the language-learning process. ____17____ You may have seen their faces when they are showing their colorful grammar charts and their carefully handmade flash cards, and their statistics about learning vocabulary using apps or even how they love to cook based on recipes in a foreign language. ____18____ But they always make sure it’s something that they personally enjoy. ____19____ Polyglots simply found ways how to enjoy the process, how to turn language learning from a boring school subject into a pleasant activity which you don’t mind doing every day. So if you’ve also tried to learn a language and you gave up, thinking it’s too difficult or you don’t have the language talent, give it another try. ____20____ Maybe you’re also just one method away from becoming a polyglot. A. All of them use different methods. B. No wonder they can get the hang of so many languages. C. They are talking about language learning as if it is great fun. D. Don’t be afraid that you may fail in the end and just try again. E. Everyone is no talents and no one have shortcut to learning languages. F. But actually there exists another kind of language learners called polyglot. G. Maybe you’re just one enjoyable method away from learning that language fluently. 第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分30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A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Mr. Dalton taught us plane geometry (平面几何) 37 years ago.

But for me, it was the first challenge I encountered as an international student in Ireland. The pronunciation system of the Chinese language is quite different from that of English. For native speakers of English, some Chinese words are rather difficult to pronounce. My given name Qiuyu (秋雨), for instance, happened to be a great challenge for many of them. Every time I gave a self-introduction, I had to explain how to pronounce my name at least five times, yet they still could not say it the way I did. Once in a lecture, the professor tried repeating my name after me over and over in front of thirty classmates. I really did not know whether I should continue correcting him or simply drop the matter. I feared that my classmates might grow tired of my efforts or even lose patience with me. After all, I did care about how others would think of me. I realized that if I didn’t stop, the entire lecture would be ruined. “It’s okay, professor,” I shrugged (耸肩). The awkward moment ended with the class erupting into laughter. I forced a smile, unsure how to respond further. After that incident, I stopped acting as a “Chinese teacher.” Instead of correcting others when they were struggling to pronounce my name, I just smiled and nodded approvingly. This approach spared me the discomfort of having to over-explain. However, I soon found that by doing so, I might be losing something more important: the opportunity to share a small part of my cultural identity. 注意： (1) 续写词数应为150个左右； (2) 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 In a class discussion, I was invited to explain the meaning of my name. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Many of my classmates got interested and came up to me after class. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
