Suddenly, I came up with an idea. “Conan, what about starting a new 14 ?” I said. “Each year, we’ll get you a new decoration. You can write your name and the year on it, and when you’re older, you’ll have your own collection.” Conan’s eyes 15 and he picked a small one. But Conan had another thought. “Since I’m ten now, can I choose ten decorations to stand for my ten years?” he asked. I 16 and handed him some. He 17 picked ten and patiently wrote his name and the year on each. For the next few years, we remembered the agreement and bought Conan a decoration every year. But when he became a teenager, we all 18 about it. Sadly, when Conan was seventeen, he died in a car accident. The holidays became really 19 for us. Decorating the tree that year seemed like a task. Even Chase and Chelsea were not as excited as before. Late one Saturday night, after everyone was asleep, I started decorating the tree 20 myself. As I looked for the decorations, I thought of Conan’s happy face when he chose the snowflake decoration. I turned it over and suddenly found that there was a name written on the 21 . Tears came to my eyes as I took out the others he had chosen. They became really 22 to me.

My family was spending a week at the beach. One morning, Maria went to the beach early, but I stayed behind to finish a drawing of a seashell. After finishing the drawing, I walked to join Maria. She was a top gymnast (体操运动员). Her show was perfect as she wheeled along the beach. The beauty of that sight froze me, and I decided immediately that I also would become a gymnast like her. I knew that I had never been very good at sports. However, when I told my parents I wanted to take a gymnastics class, they agreed with me in surprise. The next week, I went to a beginners’ class. If only my parents had talked me out of this misguided plan! Five minutes into the first class, it was clear that I didn’t have the gift of a gymnast. But I kept at it. During this time, drawing and painting—which had been my two favorites—all but left my mind. It must have been hurting for my family as they watched my hopeless efforts. I blindly decided to be like Maria. I just would not give up. At the same time, on the advice of Ms. White, my art teacher, I hurriedly handed in my seashell drawing for an art competition in our town. One night as I was having a hard time practicing, the phone rang. It was Ms. White. “Alice, you won the competition!” she said loudly. “Really?” was all I could reply. “Yes,” Ms. White said. “They’ re going to give you a prize. And that’s not all. The winner is also accepted into Wildale’s Summer Fine Arts Institute. ”I couldn’t believe what I heard. Only a few young artists were accepted each summer. That night I didn’t go back into the living room to continue practicing. Gymnastics was Maria’s gift, not mine. It had taken me a while, but I realized that I had a gift of my own. 26．Alice wanted to be a gymnast because ________. A．she had been good at sports B．her sister’s show was perfect C．she hated drawing and painting D．her parents wanted her to do so 27．How did Alice feel about learning gymnastics at last? A．Satisfied. B．Worried. C．Hopeful. D．Regretful. 28．What does the writer want to tell us according to the passage? A．We should value our own gifts. B．It takes time to find one’s gifts. C．We could develop different gifts. D．It’s never too late to show our gifts. 【答案】26．B 27．D 28．A 【导语】本文讲述了Alice盲目模仿姐姐想成为体操运动员，却在艺术比赛中获奖后，最终意识到每个人都有自己独特天赋的故事。 【详解】26．第2段提到“Her show was perfect as she wheeled along the beach. The beauty of that sight froze me, and I decided immediately that I also would become a gymnast like her.”，说明Alice想成为体操运动员是因为姐姐的表演很完美。 27．第4段提到“If only my parents had talked me out of this misguided plan!”，最后一段也提到“Gymnastics was Maria’s gift, not mine”，体现出Alice对学习体操感到后悔。 28．最后一段提到“It had taken me a while, but I realized that I had a gift of my own”，作者想告诉我们要珍惜自己的天赋，不要盲目模仿他人。 C Polar bears can dive (潜水) about 4.6 meters underwater and swim more than 96 kilometers without stopping. The thick fur and fat keep them warm in cold weather. Most polar bears live on sea ice in the Arctic Ocean including parts of Greenland. They depend on the ice as a place to hunt animals like seals or fish. However, climate change has been a huge threat to polar bears. As world’s temperatures rise, scientists predict that more than 60% of the polar bears could disappear by 2050. Meanwhile, scientists find that the bears are developing to survive (生存) in a world with higher temperatures and less sea ice. Living in such environment is changing the bears’ DNA． To know more about their DNA, scientists compared polar bears in northern Greenland to a group living in southern Greenland. Southern Greenland is warmer with less sea ice. To understand how the southern population is surviving a team of researchers studied DNA samples from 17 bears. All animals have pieces of DNA called“jumping genes (基因) ”. These genes can move from one place to another in the DNA．When they move, they can change how other genes work. Scientists found that southern bears have more active jumping genes than the northern bears. The difference seemed to be connected with higher temperatures. The jumping genes have caused changes in how the bears’ bodies deal with heat, how they age, and how they get fat. Lead researcher Alice Godden said the study’s results show that polar bears are rewriting their DNA to get used to climate change. However, she said,“This is a big problem because there is a limit (限制) for the bears to change their DNA．We don’t know  how much they could change. We still need to do everything we can to slow temperature increases.” she told The Guardian. 29．What can polar bears do according to the text? A．They can dive 4.6 kilometers. B．They can swim for a long time. C．They can jump to keep warm. D．They can only hunt food on land. 30．Which of the following has the closest meaning to the underlined word “threat” in paragraph 2? A．Danger. B．Chance. C．Mistake. D．Difference. 31．What is TRUE about the “jumping genes”? A．Only noil ar bears have the jumping genes. B．Jumping genes can move from place to place. C．Jumping genes can cause the climate change. D．Southern bears have fewer active jumping genes. 32．How might Alice Godden feel about the polar bears’ future? A．Excited. B．Surprised. C．Worried. D．Confident. 【答案】29．B 30．A 31．B 32．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了北极熊的生存现状、面临的气候变化威胁，以及它们通过“跳跃基因”调整DNA以适应环境的科学发现。 【详解】29．根据原文第一句“Polar bears can dive about 4.6 meters underwater and swim more than 96 kilometers without stopping.” 可知，北极熊可以长时间游泳。 30．后文提到“scientists predict that more than 60% of the polar bears could disappear by 2050”，说明气候变化对北极熊是一种危险，因此 threat”意为“威胁、危险”。 31．根据原文第四段“All animals have pieces of  DNA called ‘jumping genes’. These genes can move from one place to another in the DNA.” 可知，跳跃基因可以在DNA 中移动。 32．根据最后一段Alice Godden的话“This is a big problem because there is a limit for the bears to change their DNA. We don’t know how much they could change. We still need to do everything we can to slow temperature increases.”可知，她对北极熊的未来感到担忧。 D Have you ever imagined having a personal assistant (助手) that can organize your files (文件) and send emails just by your words? Now, this is becoming a reality with OpenClaw, an open-source AI agent tool that has recently taken the tech world by storm. OpenClaw gets its unusual name from its logo-a red lobster (龙虾). Chinese netizens (网民) lovingly call it “raising a lobster” when they train and use it. Unlike traditional AI chatbots (聊天机器人) like ChatGPT that only give advice, OpenClaw can actually take action. Once it is allowed to work on your computer, it can fully take over different software to complete tasks. You can think of it as hiring a digital employee (员工). OpenClaw was independently developed by an Austrian developer named Peter Steinberger. It became popular in early 2026. What makes it special? Firstly, its code (代码) was 100% written by AI. Secondly, it brings a new way for humans and computers to work together. It can run all day and night on your local computer and do tasks by itself. ________ It requires some technical knowledge to set up. This difficulty has created a new business chance. On online markets where people sell used things, many people offer “lobster installation (安装)” services. The prices range from 300 to 800 yuan each time, with 500 yuan being the most common. Some people have reportedly made 260,000 yuan in just a few days by offering such services. Though it is very popular, OpenClaw comes with hidden dangers. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has warned about its safety risks. When not properly installed, OpenClaw can easily cause network attacks (攻击) or giving away of information. There have been real cases where the AI didn’t understand orders and deleted important files. A Meta AI security leader lost over 200 important emails when her OpenClaw assistant cleared her whole mailbox. Another user’s graduation paper was mistakenly deleted because the AI thought it was “rubbish”. While OpenClaw shows us the exciting future of AI, it also reminds us to be careful. As one expert says, “It’s a powerful tool, but we must learn to control it before it controls us.” 33．According to the passage, what is OpenClaw? A．A traditional AI chatbot similar to ChatGPT. B．A new type of app that can organize files by itself. C．A red lobster logo that has become popular on the Internet. D．An open - source AI agent tool that can perform tasks on a computer. 34．Which of the following shows the use of OpenClaw? A．Giving only online advice to users. B．Organizing files and sending emails. C．Providing free installation services. D．Completing all computer tasks without human agreement. 35．Which of the following can be best put in the ________? A．Luckily, everyone is able to use OpenClaw. B．Besides, OpenClaw is very popular among Chinese netizens. C．However, using OpenClaw is not as easy as talking to a chatbot. D．Unluckily, almost all people give up installing OpenClaw because of the difficulty. 36．What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A．To explain why AI tools are better than humans. B．To teach people how to use OpenClaw correctly and safely. C．To introduce a popular AI tool and remind people of its risks. D．To show how to make money by providing “lobster installation” services. 【答案】33．D 34．B 35．C 36．C 【导语】本文围绕近期爆红的开源AI工具OpenClaw展开介绍。 33．第一段第二句“Now, this is becoming a reality with OpenClaw, an open-source AI agent tool that has recently taken the tech world by storm.”及第二段第四句“Once it is allowed to work on your computer, it can fully take over different software to complete tasks.”说明OpenClaw是能在电脑上执行任务的开源AI代理工具。 34．第一段第一句“Have you ever imagined having a personal assistant that can organize your files and send emails just by your words?”第二段第四句“Once it is allowed to work on your computer, it can fully take over different software to complete tasks.”说明OpenClaw的核心用途是：整理文件和发送邮件。 35．空格前介绍OpenClaw的独特优势，空格后立刻说明“It requires some technical knowledge to set up. This difficulty has created a new business chance.”安装需要专业技术知识，这一难度催生了新商机，前后为转折关系，C项 “然而，使用OpenClaw并不像和聊天机器人对话那么简单”既承接前文的优势，又引出后文的“使用难度”，且将其与聊天机器人对比，贴合前文提及的ChatGPT。 36．全文前3段介绍OpenClaw的定义、功能、优势、商机，后2段重点讲其隐藏风险，最后一句用专家观点提醒读者要谨慎使用、学会掌控，对应C项。 四、还原句子(共4小题;每小题1.5分，满分6分) 阅读下面短文从短文后所给的六个选项中选出四个可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Have you ever put your old clothes into the donation (捐赠) box in your neighborhood? If not, you can do it right now because the clothes donation is becoming a trend (趋势) in Urumqi. “From time to time, my mother clears out the clothes which I no longer wear. 37 I think it’s a good way to help others.” Lin Tao, a junior student says. “I often pick out some of my clothes which are out of style after going shopping. Then I’ll put them into the donation box.” Miss Li, a pretty young lady says. “That seems like a good idea. 38 People can either wear them or use them to make things such as handbags and pencil cases.” Mrs. Wang, an old woman says, “Sometimes I also look through the box for some nice clothes.” 39 Recently, a UTV reporter from Focus on the City has made a survey. Here are the results: ◆ The box is full of clothes in a short time. 40 ◆ Some people sell the clothes in the donation box for making money instead of wearing them. ◆ Some communities set the box in unsuitable places. So there are few clothes in it. ◆ Many clothes are too old and shabby (破烂的). “What’s worse,” one of the staff in a community added, “We quite often see people throw rubbish into the box when they pass by. We’ve tried to stop them several times but failed. It has been the most serious problem since we set the box.” In order to make the donation box work in an efficient way, our government is taking action. Clothes donation will be better-organized and it’ll be more convenient for people in need to take the clothes away. A．Some clothes in the box are quite new. B．Sometimes the box is broken by someone. C．You know, we teenagers are growing fast. D．However, there are some problems along with the popularity of clothes donation. E．There is no more room for people to give away clothes. F．People choose unsuitable places to set the box. 【答案】37．C 38．A 39．D 40．E 【导语】本文是说明文。主要讲述乌鲁木齐衣物捐赠成趋势，人们分享捐赠做法，也提及捐赠箱满溢、衣物破旧等问题，政府正采取措施优化。 37．根据前文“‘From time to time, my mother clears out the clothes which I no longer wear.’”可知，空处需要解释“不再穿这些衣服”的原因。选项C“你知道的，我们青少年长得很快。”符合语境。故选C。 38．根据前文“‘That seems like a good idea.’”和后文“People can either wear them or use them to make things such as handbags and pencil cases.”可知，空处需要说明衣服的状态，以衔接前文“好主意”和后文“可穿/可改造”的用途。选项A“箱子里的一些衣服很新。”符合语境。故选A。 39．前文是人们对衣物捐赠的正面反馈；根据后文“Recently, a UTV reporter...has made a survey.

Zhi Xuanzi was head of a big clan (家族) in the State of Jin (770-476 BC). He wanted a clan member. Zhi Yao, to be his successor (继承人). However, another man in the clan, Zhi Guo, was against the idea. Zhi Guo listed some strong points of Zhi Yao. For example, he was good at riding and shooting. But Zhi Guo said that he had a big problem with his morals. He thought he had an unkind heart. Still, Zhu Xuanzi didn’t listen to the idea. Zhi Yao became head of the clan. With his leadership abilities, he quickly made his clan the strongest in the State of Jin. However, because of his aggressive style, three other clans worked together to fight against the Zhi clan. Finally, the Zhi clan was beaten. Sima Guang used this story to stress the importance of morals. Having only talent is not enough for a great person. He said that excellent people must have both talent and virtue. Those who have virtue but no talent might work inefficiently. Those who have talent but no virtue might not use their talent properly. Those who have both talent and virtue were called xiancai in ancient times. If you ask which one is more important—between the two, it must be virtue. Only if a person has virtue can he or she get on the right track. In 2018, when President Xi Jinping talked with students and teachers at Peking University, he mentioned Sima Guang’s ideas. He said good education should develop both a person’s virtues and talents. Educators must follow this idea. As students, we can also make it our goal. 41．In Zhi Guo’s opinion, what were Zhi Yao’s strong points? 42．Why was Zhi Guo against Zhi Yao becoming the new leader? 43．What happened to the Zhi clan under Zhi Yao’s leadership at last? 44．What should we students be like, according to the story? (请自拟一句话作答) 【答案】41．He was good at riding and shooting. 42．Because Zhi Yao had a big problem with his morals. 43．Finally, the Zhi clan was beaten. 44．We should have both virtue and talent./Virtue puts first, only if a person has virtue can he or she get on the right track. 【导语】本文主要通过《资治通鉴》里的一个故事告诉我们：有美德的人才可能正确地使用他们的天赋。良好的教育应该培养一个人的美德和才能，教育者必须遵循这一理念。 41．根据“Zhi Guo listed some strong points of Zhi Yao. For example, he was good at riding and shooting.”可知，智瑶他擅长骑马和射击。故填He was good at riding and shooting. 42．根据“But Zhi Guo said that he had a big problem with his morals.”可知，因为智果认为智瑶的道德有很大的问题，故填Because Zhi Yao had a big problem with his morals. 43．根据“However, because of his aggressive style, three other clans worked together to fight against the Zhi clan. Finally, the Zhi clan was beaten.”可知，由于智瑶好斗的作风，其他三个氏族联合起来对抗智族，最后智族被打败了。故填Finally, the Zhi clan was beaten. 44．根据“In 2018, when President Xi Jinping talked with students and teachers at Peking University, he mentioned Sima Guang’s ideas. He said good education should develop both a person’s virtues and talents. Educators must follow this idea. As students, we can also make it our goal.”可知，我们应该把美德放在第一位，只有一个人有美德，才能走上正确的道路，故填We should have both virtue and talent./Virtue puts first, only if a person has virtue can he or she get on the right track. 六、综合填空(共10小题;每小题1分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入一个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 Zuo Wenjun is a 34-year-old artist.

Our ten-year-old son Conan wanted to help me unpack them, while the other two children, Chase and Chelsea watched 11 . Among the decorations were some 12 ones that held memories of our family trips and fun times. I was a bit worried to let children touch them 13 they might break them. Suddenly, I came up with an idea. “Conan, what about starting a new 14 ?” I said. “Each year, we’ll get you a new decoration. You can write your name and the year on it, and when you’re older, you’ll have your own collection.” Conan’s eyes 15 and he picked a small one. But Conan had another thought. “Since I’m ten now, can I choose ten decorations to stand for my ten years?” he asked. I 16 and handed him some. He 17 picked ten and patiently wrote his name and the year on each. For the next few years, we remembered the agreement and bought Conan a decoration every year. But when he became a teenager, we all 18 about it. Sadly, when Conan was seventeen, he died in a car accident. The holidays became really 19 for us. Decorating the tree that year seemed like a task. Even Chase and Chelsea were not as excited as before. Late one Saturday night, after everyone was asleep, I started decorating the tree 20 myself. As I looked for the decorations, I thought of Conan’s happy face when he chose the snowflake decoration. I turned it over and suddenly found that there was a name written on the 21 . Tears came to my eyes as I took out the others he had chosen. They became really 22 to me. At that time, I realized that the most valuable memories are not from costly things, but from common things by love. Conan’s decorations were a reminder of the love that kept us together, even in sad times. 11．A．it B．them C．us D．him 12．A．expensive B．special C．usual D．big 13．A．when B．so C．as D．but 14．A．game B．habit C．rule D．tradition 15．A．dried up B．cheered up C．grew up D．showed up 16．A．shook B．nodded C．left D．turned 17．A．carefully B．kindly C．suddenly D．easily 18．A．talked B．thought C．forgot D．cared 19．A．painful B．doubtful C．hopeful D．meaningful 20．A．by B．for C．with D．about 21．A．back B．top C．center D．front 22．A．simple B．lucky C．valuable D．strange 三、阅读理解（共14小题；每小题2分，满分28分） 阅读下列短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。 A Best Summer Travel Programs for Teens GLA Global Leadership Adventures (GLA) runs many summer programs in Costa Rica, Central America.

B I will never forget the very moment that caused me to leave my gift behind because I wanted the gift that my older sister Maria had. My family was spending a week at the beach. One morning, Maria went to the beach early, but I stayed behind to finish a drawing of a seashell. After finishing the drawing, I walked to join Maria. She was a top gymnast (体操运动员). Her show was perfect as she wheeled along the beach. The beauty of that sight froze me, and I decided immediately that I also would become a gymnast like her. I knew that I had never been very good at sports. However, when I told my parents I wanted to take a gymnastics class, they agreed with me in surprise. The next week, I went to a beginners’ class. If only my parents had talked me out of this misguided plan! Five minutes into the first class, it was clear that I didn’t have the gift of a gymnast. But I kept at it. During this time, drawing and painting—which had been my two favorites—all but left my mind. It must have been hurting for my family as they watched my hopeless efforts. I blindly decided to be like Maria. I just would not give up. At the same time, on the advice of Ms. White, my art teacher, I hurriedly handed in my seashell drawing for an art competition in our town. One night as I was having a hard time practicing, the phone rang. It was Ms. White. “Alice, you won the competition!” she said loudly. “Really?” was all I could reply. “Yes,” Ms. White said. “They’ re going to give you a prize. And that’s not all. The winner is also accepted into Wildale’s Summer Fine Arts Institute. ”I couldn’t believe what I heard. Only a few young artists were accepted each summer. That night I didn’t go back into the living room to continue practicing. Gymnastics was Maria’s gift, not mine. It had taken me a while, but I realized that I had a gift of my own. 26．Alice wanted to be a gymnast because ________. A．she had been good at sports B．her sister’s show was perfect C．she hated drawing and painting D．her parents wanted her to do so 27．How did Alice feel about learning gymnastics at last? A．Satisfied. B．Worried. C．Hopeful. D．Regretful. 28．What does the writer want to tell us according to the passage? A．We should value our own gifts. B．It takes time to find one’s gifts. C．We could develop different gifts. D．It’s never too late to show our gifts. Polar bears can dive (潜水) about 4.6 meters underwater and swim more than 96 kilometers without stopping. The thick fur and fat keep them warm in cold weather. Most polar bears live on sea ice in the Arctic Ocean including parts of Greenland. They depend on the ice as a place to hunt animals like seals or fish. However, climate change has been a huge threat to polar bears. As world’s temperatures rise, scientists predict that more than 60% of the polar bears could disappear by 2050. Meanwhile, scientists find that the bears are developing to survive (生存) in a world with higher temperatures and less sea ice. Living in such environment is changing the bears’ DNA． To know more about their DNA, scientists compared polar bears in northern Greenland to a group living in southern Greenland. Southern Greenland is warmer with less sea ice. To understand how the southern population is surviving a team of researchers studied DNA samples from 17 bears. All animals have pieces of DNA called“jumping genes (基因) ”. These genes can move from one place to another in the DNA．When they move, they can change how other genes work. Scientists found that southern bears have more active jumping genes than the northern bears. The difference seemed to be connected with higher temperatures. The jumping genes have caused changes in how the bears’ bodies deal with heat, how they age, and how they get fat. Lead researcher Alice Godden said the study’s results show that polar bears are rewriting their DNA to get used to climate change. However, she said,“This is a big problem because there is a limit (限制) for the bears to change their DNA．We don’t know  how much they could change. We still need to do everything we can to slow temperature increases.” she told The Guardian. 29．What can polar bears do according to the text? A．They can dive 4.6 kilometers. B．They can swim for a long time. C．They can jump to keep warm. D．They can only hunt food on land. 30．Which of the following has the closest meaning to the underlined word “threat” in paragraph 2? A．Danger. B．Chance. C．Mistake. D．Difference. 31．What is TRUE about the “jumping genes”? A．Only noil ar bears have the jumping genes. B．Jumping genes can move from place to place. C．Jumping genes can cause the climate change. D．Southern bears have fewer active jumping genes. 32．How might Alice Godden feel about the polar bears’ future? A．Excited. B．Surprised. C．Worried. D．Confident. D Have you ever imagined having a personal assistant (助手) that can organize your files (文件) and send emails just by your words? Now, this is becoming a reality with OpenClaw, an open-source AI agent tool that has recently taken the tech world by storm. OpenClaw gets its unusual name from its logo-a red lobster (龙虾). Chinese netizens (网民) lovingly call it “raising a lobster” when they train and use it. Unlike traditional AI chatbots (聊天机器人) like ChatGPT that only give advice, OpenClaw can actually take action. Once it is allowed to work on your computer, it can fully take over different software to complete tasks. You can think of it as hiring a digital employee (员工). OpenClaw was independently developed by an Austrian developer named Peter Steinberger. It became popular in early 2026. What makes it special? Firstly, its code (代码) was 100% written by AI. Secondly, it brings a new way for humans and computers to work together. It can run all day and night on your local computer and do tasks by itself. ________ It requires some technical knowledge to set up. This difficulty has created a new business chance. On online markets where people sell used things, many people offer “lobster installation (安装)” services. The prices range from 300 to 800 yuan each time, with 500 yuan being the most common. Some people have reportedly made 260,000 yuan in just a few days by offering such services. Though it is very popular, OpenClaw comes with hidden dangers. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has warned about its safety risks. When not properly installed, OpenClaw can easily cause network attacks (攻击) or giving away of information. There have been real cases where the AI didn’t understand orders and deleted important files. A Meta AI security leader lost over 200 important emails when her OpenClaw assistant cleared her whole mailbox. Another user’s graduation paper was mistakenly deleted because the AI thought it was “rubbish”. While OpenClaw shows us the exciting future of AI, it also reminds us to be careful. As one expert says, “It’s a powerful tool, but we must learn to control it before it controls us.” 33．According to the passage, what is OpenClaw? A．A traditional AI chatbot similar to ChatGPT. B．A new type of app that can organize files by itself. C．A red lobster logo that has become popular on the Internet. D．An open - source AI agent tool that can perform tasks on a computer. 34．Which of the following shows the use of OpenClaw? A．Giving only online advice to users. B．Organizing files and sending emails. C．Providing free installation services. D．Completing all computer tasks without human agreement. 35．Which of the following can be best put in the ________? A．Luckily, everyone is able to use OpenClaw. B．Besides, OpenClaw is very popular among Chinese netizens. C．However, using OpenClaw is not as easy as talking to a chatbot. D．Unluckily, almost all people give up installing OpenClaw because of the difficulty. 36．What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A．To explain why AI tools are better than humans. B．To teach people how to use OpenClaw correctly and safely. C．To introduce a popular AI tool and remind people of its risks. D．To show how to make money by providing “lobster installation” services. 四、还原句子(共4小题;每小题1.5分，满分6分) 阅读下面短文从短文后所给的六个选项中选出四个可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Have you ever put your old clothes into the donation (捐赠) box in your neighborhood? If not, you can do it right now because the clothes donation is becoming a trend (趋势) in Urumqi. “From time to time, my mother clears out the clothes which I no longer wear. 37 I think it’s a good way to help others.” Lin Tao, a junior student says. “I often pick out some of my clothes which are out of style after going shopping. Then I’ll put them into the donation box.” Miss Li, a pretty young lady says. “That seems like a good idea. 38 People can either wear them or use them to make things such as handbags and pencil cases.” Mrs. Wang, an old woman says, “Sometimes I also look through the box for some nice clothes.” 39 Recently, a UTV reporter from Focus on the City has made a survey. Here are the results: ◆ The box is full of clothes in a short time. 40 ◆ Some people sell the clothes in the donation box for making money instead of wearing them. ◆ Some communities set the box in unsuitable places. So there are few clothes in it. ◆ Many clothes are too old and shabby (破烂的). “What’s worse,” one of the staff in a community added, “We quite often see people throw rubbish into the box when they pass by. We’ve tried to stop them several times but failed. It has been the most serious problem since we set the box.” In order to make the donation box work in an efficient way, our government is taking action. Clothes donation will be better-organized and it’ll be more convenient for people in need to take the clothes away. A．Some clothes in the box are quite new. B．Sometimes the box is broken by someone. C．You know, we teenagers are growing fast. D．However, there are some problems along with the popularity of clothes donation. E．There is no more room for people to give away clothes. F．People choose unsuitable places to set the box. 五、阅读短文，回答问题。40-42题答案不超过10个单词（共4小题；前3小题每题2分，第4小题3分；满分9分） There is a story in the book History as a Mirror (《资治通鉴》) by Chinese historian Sima Guang. Zhi Xuanzi was head of a big clan (家族) in the State of Jin (770-476 BC). He wanted a clan member. Zhi Yao, to be his successor (继承人). However, another man in the clan, Zhi Guo, was against the idea. Zhi Guo listed some strong points of Zhi Yao. For example, he was good at riding and shooting. But Zhi Guo said that he had a big problem with his morals. He thought he had an unkind heart. Still, Zhu Xuanzi didn’t listen to the idea. Zhi Yao became head of the clan. With his leadership abilities, he quickly made his clan the strongest in the State of Jin. However, because of his aggressive style, three other clans worked together to fight against the Zhi clan. Finally, the Zhi clan was beaten. Sima Guang used this story to stress the importance of morals. Having only talent is not enough for a great person. He said that excellent people must have both talent and virtue. Those who have virtue but no talent might work inefficiently. Those who have talent but no virtue might not use their talent properly. Those who have both talent and virtue were called xiancai in ancient times. If you ask which one is more important—between the two, it must be virtue. Only if a person has virtue can he or she get on the right track. In 2018, when President Xi Jinping talked with students and teachers at Peking University, he mentioned Sima Guang’s ideas. He said good education should develop both a person’s virtues and talents. Educators must follow this idea. As students, we can also make it our goal. 41．In Zhi Guo’s opinion, what were Zhi Yao’s strong points? 42．Why was Zhi Guo against Zhi Yao becoming the new leader? 43．What happened to the Zhi clan under Zhi Yao’s leadership at last? 44．What should we students be like, according to the story?
