From bronze bowls to ceramic vases, and jade sculptures to ink wash paintings, our goal is to display the Chinese artistic genius from ancient times. The highlight of this exhibition is the painting Clearing After Snow on a Mountain Pass, one of the great works of Tang Yin (1470-1524) . Born during the Ming Dynasty, Tang sought and failed to gain entry into the civil service, so he turned to painting instead. In time, he gained recognition as one of the greatest artists China has ever known. This painting, showing high mountains, trees, and houses covered in snow, was made with extraordinary skill. Though it is over 500 years old, it looks as fresh and full of life as the day it was created. Also of primary note is a collection of nearly 100 bronze objects from the Shang Dynasty (1600 BCE-1046 BCE). While the artists who made these great works are not known, they showed great skill in creating these beautiful pieces. Some of the items on display are thought to have come from the collection of Emperor Qianlong (1711-1799) , a great admirer of Shang Dynasty bronze. Finally, we have many fine examples of Tang Dynasty (618-907) sculptures. Most of these are of Buddhist origin. Even though Buddhism entered China much earlier, it did not really begin to show expansion until the seventh century. During this same period, trade along the Silk Road also boomed. Chinese sculpture thus found itself highly influenced by Buddhist art brought from India and Central Asia through the Silk Road. These works were intended to spread Buddhism and they are of exceptional beauty and quality. Looking at the faces of the figures in these sculptures, one sees the faces of the past. History is brought to life. This is just a small taste of what is in store for you in this exhibition. We guarantee that“From Shang to Qing: Chinese Art Through the Ages” will transport you to another time with its amazing collection of works. “From Shang to Qing: Chinese Art Through the Ages” will run until November 25. Opening hours are from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., from Tuesday to Sunday ( the museum is closed on Mondays). No one will be admitted into the exhibition after 4:30 p.m. Admission: $10 for adults; $8 for students; $5 for children under 12; free for children under 5. No photos or food and drink are allowed in the museum. 1. What is the main purpose of the exhibition? A. To introduce the history of Chinese dynasties from Shang to Qing. B. To show the artistic achievements of ancient China over 3,000 years. C. To promote the exchange of Chinese and Western art cultures. D. To collect donations for the Richfield Museum of Fine Art. 2. Which of the following is TRUE about the bronze objects on show? A. All of them were made by famous artists of the Shang Dynasty. B. They were all collected by Emperor Qianlong during his lifetime. C. They are a collection of nearly 100 bronze items from the Shang Dynasty. D. They are the most important exhibits in the whole exhibition. 3. If a couple with their 10-year-old child and 4-year-old baby visit the exhibition, how much should they pay in total? A. $28. B. $25. C. $23. D. $20. B American musician Mark Levine’s journey with China began 21 years ago as an English teacher. Levine didn’t realize at the time that he would soon come to fall in love with the country. What started as a career-oriented move turned into a profound personal connection, leading him to call China his long-term home. Levine found his unique voice by documenting his experiences through music. To date, he has composed over 80 songs inspired by China, with themes ranging from the lives of migrant workers to the country’s vast natural landscapes. His musical partnership with Chinese artist Fu Han in their duo (二重唱) “In Side Out” symbolizes the interweaving of Eastern and Western cultures, much like the two sides of a single piece of clothing. Living through China’s rapid development provided Levine with firsthand material. Observing the shared sense of responsibility among Chinese people, he was inspired to write the song “Together we must take a stand”, capturing the spirit of unity he witnessed. He has described feeling safer in China than anywhere else. Believing that many international perceptions of China are incomplete or inaccurate, Levine took to writing. His 2014 book, Stories from My Chinese Journey, offers a ground-level view of daily life and culture. He often builds his narratives from real conversations, aiming to let China speak for itself. This effort to bridge the understanding gap, presenting a China defined by the friendliness of its people and the energy of its progress, was recognized with the distinguished Chinese Government Friendship Award in 2014. Having traveled to 29 provinces, Levine is most struck by the warmth and diversity of the people. When asked about his future, his answer is heartfelt and definitive: China is his home. Through teaching, music, and writing, he continues to build cultural bridges, sharing the stories of the country he has grown to love. 4. How did Mark Levine’s relationship with China change over time? A. It evolved into a deep emotional bond. B. It fully met his initial expectations. C. It ended after he finished teaching. D. It remained strictly professional. 5. Why does the author use the comparison “like the two sides of a single piece of clothing” when describing the duo? A. To argue for the superiority of one culture over the other. B. To contrast the distinct characteristics of the two cultures. C. To highlight the challenges of cross - cultural communication. D. To visualize the inseparable unity formed by the cultural integration. 6. What is the main reason for Levine’s receiving the Chinese Government Friendship Award? A. His popular music about China. B. His long - term English teaching. C. His work promoting a truer image of China. D. His reporting on the daily lives of Chinese people. 7. Which of the following best describes Levine’s role as described in the text? A. A journalist reporting on China’s social issues. B. A historian documenting China’s ancient wonders. C. An English teacher who occasionally writes songs. D. A cross - cultural communicator through music and writing. C A Midsummer Night’s Dream may be one of Shakespeare’s most performed plays—but its latest version from the Royal Shakespeare Company will be unlike any seen before. Titled Dream, the 50-minute online production will let audiences remotely guide the leading character Puck through a virtual forest. In 2016, the Royal Shakespeare Company’s production of The Tempest used high-tech to create a 3D digital image that was projected above the stage. The difference this time is that everything in the play—the performers and their surroundings—will be shown virtually. Seven actors will perform in a specially-built studio. They will be surrounded by a 360-degree camera set, made up of 47 cameras with every movement almost immediately presented digitally, which is presented to viewers online. With its much-reduced characters, Dream is not a complete production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, rather, it is a story inspired by it, focusing on Puck and the fairies (精灵). Up to 2,000 audience members for each performance can become part of the show and will be invited to guide Puck through the forest. On screen, the chosen audience will appear as a cloud of tiny fireflies (萤火虫). By using their mouse or finger on the screen of a smart device, they will be able to move their firefly across the screen, and Puck will be at their beck and call to go through the virtual space. For viewers watching at home, the virtual fairies moving through a digital forest will look more like a video game than the average Royal Shakespeare Company show. “Without the fireflies—the audiences—Puck wouldn’t be going anywhere,” said E.M. Williams who plays the role. “The audiences are very much the fuel and the energy of the show.” 8. What makes Dream different from The Tempest? A. The number of actors and actresses. B. The surroundings around the performers C. The 3D digital image it chooses to show. D. The way it presents everything in the play. 9. What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. Leading characters of the play. B. Audiences’ opinions on the play. C. The play’s production process. D. The inspiration for the play. 10. What does the underlined part “be at their beck and call” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Be ready to follow their order. B. Be happy to receive a call. C. Be difficult to control. D. Be willing to guide them. 11. What do E. M. Williams’ words in the last paragraph show? A. The cost of the show. B. The pleasure of the audiences. C. The task of the leading character. D. The importance of the audiences. D Personalized recommendation algorithms (算法) analyze data to tailor content for each user. Existing research focuses on their influence regarding familiar topics, such as politics or social issues. However, a study by Giwon Bahg at The Ohio State University found that when algorithms selected information for a learning task, participants with no prior knowledge on the topic tended to focus on only a small portion of the material. They often answered test questions incorrectly but expressed high confidence. Thus, the research shows personalized recommendation algorithms may prevent people’s learning. Co-author Brandon Turner noted that people tended to draw broad, unfounded conclusions from the limited information provided by algorithms. This research reveals that algorithms can build prejudices immediately even when learners know nothing about a topic, leading to a distorted view of reality. “People miss key information when they follow an algorithm, yet they mistakenly believe what they know applies to other features and environments they’ve never encountered,” Turner said. An example illustrates how recommendation algorithms can be biased (有偏见的). A viewer new to a country’s films may choose an action-thriller from the streaming service’s top list. The algorithm then promotes more of the same type, making the viewer overlook strong films in other categories and form inaccurate, overly broad assumptions about the country’s culture or society. To avoid the effect of prior knowledge, Bahg’s team tested 346 online participants with a fictional task: learning to identify crystal-like aliens, each with six distinct features. For instance, a square component could be dark black or pale gray. Participants either viewed all features or were guided by an algorithm that led them to repeat the same features. The algorithm group viewed fewer features selectively, frequently sorted new aliens incorrectly, and were even more confident when wrong than when correct. These findings carry real-world significance. Turner questioned, “What will happen to young kids who are genuinely trying to learn about the world through online platforms where algorithms prioritize content consumption over comprehensive learning?” Consuming similar content conflicts with effective learning, posing problems for both users and society. 12. How is the new research different from existing ones on personalized algorithms? A. It highlights the confidence-accuracy gap among users. B. It examines their effect on learning unfamiliar topics. C. It studies the technical design of the algorithms. D. It focuses on information selecting process. 13. What does the underlined word “distorted” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Incomplete. B. Oversimplified. C. Misleading. D. Impractical. 14. How did the researchers conduct the experiment to prove the algorithm’s impact? A. They compared the results of participants with and without prior knowledge. B. They used a fictional learning task to separate the effect of algorithms. C. They asked participants to choose their preferred content freely. D. They analyzed practical data from streaming platforms. 15. What is Professor Turner’s main concern expressed in his question? A. The negative impact of algorithms on children’s worldview. B. Online platform’s capacity for constant content renewal. C. Children’s growing dependence on digital learning. D. Measures needed to reduce children’s screen time. 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， Your mental health influences how you think, feel, and behave in daily life. It also affects your ability to deal with stress, overcome challenges, build relationships, and recover from life’s setbacks and hardships. Having solid mental health doesn’t mean that you never go through bad times or experience emotional problems. We all go through disappointments, loss and change. These are normal parts of life. ___16___ Just as physically healthy people are better able to bounce back from illness or injury, people with strong mental health are better able to bounce back from adversity （逆境）, and stress. This ability is called resilience （适应力）. People who are emotionally and mentally resilient have the tools for dealing with difficult situations and maintaining a positive outlook. ___17___ Their resilience also makes them less afraid of new experiences and an uncertain future. Even when they don’t immediately know how a problem will be solved, they’re hopeful that a solution will eventually be found. Anyone can suffer from mental or emotional health problems over a lifetime; most of us will. Therefore, mental health problems are quite common. ___18___ We ignore the emotional messages that tell us something is wrong and try toughing it out by distracting （使分心） ourselves. We bottle up our problems in the hope that others won’t notice. ___19___ Or we simply give up—telling ourselves this is “just the way we are.” ___20___ There are practices you can adopt to lift your mood, become more resilient, and enjoy life more. But just as it requires effort to build and maintain physical health, so it does with mental health. We have to work harder these days to ensure strong mental health, simply because there are so many ways that life has a bad effect on our emotional well-being. A.

My heart sank as I heard a slight meow from an abandoned cat carrier by the door. I opened it and took the cat in my arms. Immediately, she buried her face into my arms, her skinny body shaking, but she didn’t escape as if she knew I was there to help. The doctor estimated her age to be about six. Although weak and underweight, she could return to normal with care. Unfortunately, she tested positive for feline leukemia(猫白血病), which is infectious with only a bite, without cure. Though infected cats can also live normal, happy lives, the doctor regretfully announced she was “unfit for groups”. The only choice was for a volunteer to adopt her. Already having four cats, I had determined not to put them through the stress of learning to live with a new member. Plus, I had agreed with my husband that we had reached the animal limit. Nevertheless, I took her home anyway and quarantined(隔离) her in a spare room. The first few nights were difficult. I spent as much time as I could with her. Gradually, she seemed to accept her fate and waited every morning for me. Her appetite returned and soon she looked quite health y again. Before long, this cat began walking around the room as if she owned it — like a little princess, so “Princess” she was named. Nine long months passed. While I tried to find her a home where she could be the only cat, it was fruitless and we finally accepted her presence. Summer arrived. Every year, one shelter volunteer hosts a party. It was my turn that year. About thirty volunteers and their guests enjoyed barbecuing and sharing animal stories. Everyone wanted to see “the cat in the room”, so Princess received more than her share of attention. Jody, the Sunday morning volunteer, arrived and introduced her fiancé, Eric. We chatted for a while. Eric mentioned he once lost a cat named Queen, and was also quite interested in Princess. 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。 I was totally unprepared for what happened next. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ It turned out that Princess — I mean Queen — was lost when Eric was moving here. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025-2026学年第二学期学科素养大赛 高二英语测试卷 (考试时间：120分钟；考试满分：150分) 考生注意： 1.答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡的相应位置上 2.作答时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效 3.考试结束后，将答题卡交回，试卷由考生带回以便后期讲评 第一部分 听力 (共两节，满分30 分) 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。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。听完每段对话后，你将有 10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍 1.

Levine didn’t realize at the time that he would soon come to fall in love with the country. What started as a career-oriented move turned into a profound personal connection, leading him to call China his long-term home. Levine found his unique voice by documenting his experiences through music. To date, he has composed over 80 songs inspired by China, with themes ranging from the lives of migrant workers to the country’s vast natural landscapes. His musical partnership with Chinese artist Fu Han in their duo (二重唱) “In Side Out” symbolizes the interweaving of Eastern and Western cultures, much like the two sides of a single piece of clothing. Living through China’s rapid development provided Levine with firsthand material. Observing the shared sense of responsibility among Chinese people, he was inspired to write the song “Together we must take a stand”, capturing the spirit of unity he witnessed. He has described feeling safer in China than anywhere else. Believing that many international perceptions of China are incomplete or inaccurate, Levine took to writing. His 2014 book, Stories from My Chinese Journey, offers a ground-level view of daily life and culture. He often builds his narratives from real conversations, aiming to let China speak for itself. This effort to bridge the understanding gap, presenting a China defined by the friendliness of its people and the energy of its progress, was recognized with the distinguished Chinese Government Friendship Award in 2014. Having traveled to 29 provinces, Levine is most struck by the warmth and diversity of the people. When asked about his future, his answer is heartfelt and definitive: China is his home. Through teaching, music, and writing, he continues to build cultural bridges, sharing the stories of the country he has grown to love. 4. How did Mark Levine’s relationship with China change over time? A. It evolved into a deep emotional bond. B. It fully met his initial expectations. C. It ended after he finished teaching. D. It remained strictly professional. 5. Why does the author use the comparison “like the two sides of a single piece of clothing” when describing the duo? A. To argue for the superiority of one culture over the other. B. To contrast the distinct characteristics of the two cultures. C. To highlight the challenges of cross - cultural communication. D. To visualize the inseparable unity formed by the cultural integration. 6. What is the main reason for Levine’s receiving the Chinese Government Friendship Award? A. His popular music about China. B. His long - term English teaching. C. His work promoting a truer image of China. D. His reporting on the daily lives of Chinese people. 7. Which of the following best describes Levine’s role as described in the text? A. A journalist reporting on China’s social issues. B. A historian documenting China’s ancient wonders. C. An English teacher who occasionally writes songs. D. A cross - cultural communicator through music and writing. 【答案】4. A 5. D 6. C 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了美国音乐家Mark Levine与中国结缘二十余载，通过音乐和写作促进东西方文化交流的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“What started as a career-oriented move turned into a profound personal connection, leading him to call China his long-term home.(起初是为了职业发展，后来变成了深厚的个人联系，使他称中国为长期的家园。)”可知，Levine与中国的关系演变成了深厚的情感纽带。故选A。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“His musical partnership with Chinese artist Fu Han in their duo ‘In Side Out’ symbolizes the interweaving of Eastern and Western cultures, much like the two sides of a single piece of clothing.(他与中国艺术家付涵的二重唱“Inside Out”象征着东西方文化的交织，就像一件衣服的两面。)”作者运用此比喻是为了形象地展示两种文化融合形成的不可分割的统一体。故选D。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“This effort to bridge the understanding gap, presenting a China defined by the friendliness of its people and the energy of its progress, was recognized with the distinguished Chinese Government Friendship Award in 2014.(这种弥合理解差距的努力，展现了一个由人民友好和进步活力所定义的中国，于2014年获得了中国政府友谊奖。)”可知，Levine获奖的主要原因是其作品促进了中国真实形象的传播。故选C。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Through teaching, music, and writing, he continues to build cultural bridges, sharing the stories of the country he has grown to love.(通过教学、音乐和写作，他不断搭建文化桥梁，分享他所爱之国的故事。)”可推知，Levine扮演的角色是通过音乐和写作进行跨文化交流的传播者。故选D。 C A Midsummer Night’s Dream may be one of Shakespeare’s most performed plays—but its latest version from the Royal Shakespeare Company will be unlike any seen before. Titled Dream, the 50-minute online production will let audiences remotely guide the leading character Puck through a virtual forest. In 2016, the Royal Shakespeare Company’s production of The Tempest used high-tech to create a 3D digital image that was projected above the stage. The difference this time is that everything in the play—the performers and their surroundings—will be shown virtually. Seven actors will perform in a specially-built studio. They will be surrounded by a 360-degree camera set, made up of 47 cameras with every movement almost immediately presented digitally, which is presented to viewers online. With its much-reduced characters, Dream is not a complete production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, rather, it is a story inspired by it, focusing on Puck and the fairies (精灵). Up to 2,000 audience members for each performance can become part of the show and will be invited to guide Puck through the forest. On screen, the chosen audience will appear as a cloud of tiny fireflies (萤火虫). By using their mouse or finger on the screen of a smart device, they will be able to move their firefly across the screen, and Puck will be at their beck and call to go through the virtual space. For viewers watching at home, the virtual fairies moving through a digital forest will look more like a video game than the average Royal Shakespeare Company show. “Without the fireflies—the audiences—Puck wouldn’t be going anywhere,” said E.M. Williams who plays the role. “The audiences are very much the fuel and the energy of the show.” 8. What makes Dream different from The Tempest? A. The number of actors and actresses. B. The surroundings around the performers C. The 3D digital image it chooses to show. D. The way it presents everything in the play. 9. What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. Leading characters of the play. B. Audiences’ opinions on the play. C. The play’s production process. D. The inspiration for the play. 10. What does the underlined part “be at their beck and call” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Be ready to follow their order. B. Be happy to receive a call. C. Be difficult to control. D. Be willing to guide them. 11. What do E. M. Williams’ words in the last paragraph show? A. The cost of the show. B. The pleasure of the audiences. C. The task of the leading character. D. The importance of the audiences. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了皇家莎士比亚剧团将新技术引入到《仲夏夜之梦》这部戏剧中，以引起观众们的广泛参与和强烈的沉浸感。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。第二段最后一句提到“The difference this time is that everything in the play—the performers and their surroundings—will be shown virtually.”（这次的不同之处在于，剧中的一切——演员和他们周围的环境——都将以虚拟形式呈现）由此判断，这个版本中的一切都是不一样的。故选D。 【9题详解】 主旨大意题。第三段第一二句提到“Seven actors will perform in a specially-built studio. They will be surrounded by a 360-degree camera set, made up of 47 cameras with every movement almost immediately presented digitally, which is presented to viewers online. ”（七名演员将在一个专门建造的演播室里表演。他们将被一个由47个摄像机组成的360度摄像机包围，每个动作几乎都是立即以数字方式呈现，并在网上呈现给观众）此处介绍了这部剧的拍摄过程。故选C。 【10题详解】 词义猜测题。第三段第一句提到“Up to 2,000 audience members for each performance can become part of the show and will be invited to guide Puck through the forest. On screen, the chosen audience will appear as a cloud of tiny fireflies . ”（每次表演最多可吸引2000名观众参与，他们将受邀指导帕克穿越森林。在屏幕上，被选中的观众将以一团小萤火虫的形式出现）由此判断，观众们参与这个戏剧是在导演的指导下完成的，并不是随意行动。A项Be ready to follow their order.（准备好听从他们的命令。）符合文意，故选A。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。最后一段最后一句提到“The audiences are very much the fuel and the energy of the show.”（观众是这部剧的燃料和能量）由此判断，正是因为观众作为“电子萤火虫 ”的参与，才使得这部戏剧变得独特起来，说明观众的参与是非常重要的。故选D。 D Personalized recommendation algorithms (算法) analyze data to tailor content for each user. Existing research focuses on their influence regarding familiar topics, such as politics or social issues. However, a study by Giwon Bahg at The Ohio State University found that when algorithms selected information for a learning task, participants with no prior knowledge on the topic tended to focus on only a small portion of the material. They often answered test questions incorrectly but expressed high confidence. Thus, the research shows personalized recommendation algorithms may prevent people’s learning. Co-author Brandon Turner noted that people tended to draw broad, unfounded conclusions from the limited information provided by algorithms. This research reveals that algorithms can build prejudices immediately even when learners know nothing about a topic, leading to a distorted view of reality. “People miss key information when they follow an algorithm, yet they mistakenly believe what they know applies to other features and environments they’ve never encountered,” Turner said. An example illustrates how recommendation algorithms can be biased (有偏见的). A viewer new to a country’s films may choose an action-thriller from the streaming service’s top list. The algorithm then promotes more of the same type, making the viewer overlook strong films in other categories and form inaccurate, overly broad assumptions about the country’s culture or society. To avoid the effect of prior knowledge, Bahg’s team tested 346 online participants with a fictional task: learning to identify crystal-like aliens, each with six distinct features. For instance, a square component could be dark black or pale gray. Participants either viewed all features or were guided by an algorithm that led them to repeat the same features. The algorithm group viewed fewer features selectively, frequently sorted new aliens incorrectly, and were even more confident when wrong than when correct. These findings carry real-world significance. Turner questioned, “What will happen to young kids who are genuinely trying to learn about the world through online platforms where algorithms prioritize content consumption over comprehensive learning?” Consuming similar content conflicts with effective learning, posing problems for both users and society. 12. How is the new research different from existing ones on personalized algorithms? A. It highlights the confidence-accuracy gap among users. B. It examines their effect on learning unfamiliar topics. C. It studies the technical design of the algorithms. D. It focuses on information selecting process. 13. What does the underlined word “distorted” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Incomplete. B. Oversimplified. C. Misleading. D. Impractical. 14. How did the researchers conduct the experiment to prove the algorithm’s impact? A. They compared the results of participants with and without prior knowledge. B. They used a fictional learning task to separate the effect of algorithms. C. They asked participants to choose their preferred content freely. D. They analyzed practical data from streaming platforms. 15. What is Professor Turner’s main concern expressed in his question? A. The negative impact of algorithms on children’s worldview. B. Online platform’s capacity for constant content renewal. C. Children’s growing dependence on digital learning. D. Measures needed to reduce children’s screen time. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。现有研究多关注个性化算法对熟悉话题的影响，而新研究发现其会阻碍对陌生领域的学习，使人片面认知、产生偏见。实验证明其危害，研究者担忧这会影响孩子正确认识世界。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Existing research focuses on their influence regarding familiar topics, such as politics or social issues. However, a study by Giwon Bahg at The Ohio State University found that when algorithms selected information for a learning task, participants with no prior knowledge on the topic tended to focus on only a small portion of the material. They often answered test questions incorrectly but expressed high confidence. Thus, the research shows personalized recommendation algorithms may prevent people’s learning. (现有的研究主要关注算法在处理熟悉话题（如政治或社会问题）时所产生的影响。然而，俄亥俄州立大学的吉文·巴格所进行的一项研究发现，当算法为一项学习任务选择信息时，对于该主题毫无了解的参与者往往会只专注于材料的很小一部分。他们常常答错测试题，但却表现出很高的自信。因此，这项研究表明，个性化的推荐算法可能会妨碍人们的学习。)”可知，这项新的研究研究了它们对学习陌生知识内容的影响。故选B。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段““People miss key information when they follow an algorithm, yet they mistakenly believe what they know applies to other features and environments they’ve never encountered,” Turner said. ( 特纳说：“人们在遵循算法时会遗漏关键信息，但他们却错误地认为自己所知道的东西适用于他们从未遇到过的其他特征和环境。”)”可知，人们错误地认为自己所知道的东西适用于他们从未遇到过的其他特征和环境，说明算法具有误导性。故划线词意思是“误导性的”。故选C。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“To avoid the effect of prior knowledge, Bahg’s team tested 346 online participants with a fictional task: learning to identify crystal-like aliens, each with six distinct features. (为避免先入之见的影响，巴格的团队对346名在线参与者进行了一项虚构任务的测试：学习识别具有六种不同特征的类似晶体的外星生物。)”可知，研究人员通过一个虚构的学习任务来区分算法所产生的效果来证明该算法的影响。故选B。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“What will happen to young kids who are genuinely trying to learn about the world through online platforms where algorithms prioritize content consumption over comprehensive learning? (那些真心希望通过在线平台来了解世界的年轻孩子们将会面临怎样的情况呢？这些平台的算法更倾向于引导用户进行内容的浏览，而非促进全面的学习。)”可知，特纳教授在其问题中所表达的主要担忧是算法对儿童世界观产生的负面影响。故选A。 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， Your mental health influences how you think, feel, and behave in daily life. It also affects your ability to deal with stress, overcome challenges, build relationships, and recover from life’s setbacks and hardships.

My heart sank as I heard a slight meow from an abandoned cat carrier by the door. I opened it and took the cat in my arms. Immediately, she buried her face into my arms, her skinny body shaking, but she didn’t escape as if she knew I was there to help. The doctor estimated her age to be about six. Although weak and underweight, she could return to normal with care. Unfortunately, she tested positive for feline leukemia(猫白血病), which is infectious with only a bite, without cure. Though infected cats can also live normal, happy lives, the doctor regretfully announced she was “unfit for groups”. The only choice was for a volunteer to adopt her. Already having four cats, I had determined not to put them through the stress of learning to live with a new member. Plus, I had agreed with my husband that we had reached the animal limit. Nevertheless, I took her home anyway and quarantined(隔离) her in a spare room. The first few nights were difficult. I spent as much time as I could with her. Gradually, she seemed to accept her fate and waited every morning for me. Her appetite returned and soon she looked quite health y again. Before long, this cat began walking around the room as if she owned it — like a little princess, so “Princess” she was named. Nine long months passed. While I tried to find her a home where she could be the only cat, it was fruitless and we finally accepted her presence. Summer arrived. Every year, one shelter volunteer hosts a party. It was my turn that year. About thirty volunteers and their guests enjoyed barbecuing and sharing animal stories. Everyone wanted to see “the cat in the room”, so Princess received more than her share of attention. Jody, the Sunday morning volunteer, arrived and introduced her fiancé, Eric. We chatted for a while. Eric mentioned he once lost a cat named Queen, and was also quite interested in Princess. 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。 I was totally unprepared for what happened next. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ It turned out that Princess — I mean Queen — was lost when Eric was moving here. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】I was totally unprepared for what happened next. Princess walked to him as usual, but there was obviously something special about Eric. With affection, she looked up at him, rubbed against his leg, and refused to leave him. Lifting her up, Eric said “This is my cat”, his voice trembling with excitement. Feeling totally at a loss, I was speechless for a long while. Noticing my confusion and the awkward silence, Eric began to explain his remark to me patiently. It felt like a century to me before I finally grasped what he said. It turned out that Princess — I mean Queen — was lost when Eric was moving here. Raised strictly indoors due to the virus, the cat was so frightened when taken out that she ran away. Of course, Eric was heartbroken and tried every means to find her, but all in vain. It was like the cat just disappeared into thin air. Gradually, Eric accepted the reality, so he was completely unprepared for the reunion that day. The next day, Eric took Queen away. I almost cried. Looking back, I waited almost a year for a miracle to happen, but it was worth the effort. 【解析】 【导语】本文以作者在动物收容所做志愿者为背景展开，讲述了作者救助一只感染猫白血病的猫并取名为 “公主”，在一次聚会中，这只猫与一位志愿者的未婚夫埃里克产生特殊联系，最后发现这只猫是埃里克丢失的 “女王”。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容 “我完全没料到接下来会发生的事情。” 可知，第一段可描写猫对埃里克的特殊反应以及埃里克的激动表现和作者的困惑。 ②由第二段首句内容 “原来，“公主”—— 我是说“女王”—— 是埃里克搬到这里的时候丢失的。” 可知，第二段可描写猫丢失的经过以及埃里克最终带走猫，作者的感受。 2. 续写线索：猫对埃里克的反应 —— 埃里克认出猫 —— 作者困惑 —— 埃里克解释 —— 猫丢失经过 —— 埃里克带走猫 —— 作者感受 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①解释：explain/elaborate ②理解：grasp/understand/make out ③消失：disappear/vanish 情绪类 ①激动地：with excitement/in high spirits ②害怕的：frightened /scared 【点睛】[高分句型 1].
