For several months, these teenagers had labored in their automotive workshop to repair the car specifically for Rader, a single mother of three. “Kids who never met me cared enough to ensure my family’s safety,” Rader remarked, still breathless from the encounter. This heartwarming scene was part of a partnership between the school and Giving Words, a local nonprofit founded by Eddie Brown. Having struggled as single parents themselves, Brown and his wife understood the stakes (利害关系). “A broken-down car can mean losing a job or missing vital appointments,” Brown explained. Since 2018, they have donated over 60 cars to single mothers, with high schoolers renewing about half of them. In the school’s garage, the connection of education and real life becomes visible. Under the guidance of teacher Shane Robertson, about 20 students per car handle everything from brake repairs to battery testing. For 16-year-old Holden Pekary, the experience is deeply rewarding. He recalled a recent presentation where the class raised the garage doors and clapped as a mother with a baby received her keys. “I put the license plate on for her,” Holden said proudly. “It was nice.” For Rader, the car was a conduit to a new life. Within three months of connecting with the program, her world shifted. “Because of this vehicle, I moved from a part-time job to a full-time career and started school,” she said. Beyond the car, Giving Words also gave her free oil changes, as well as diapers (尿布) and clothing for her sons. A little mechanical help can drive a soul toward a brighter future. 4. What did Rader value most? A. The car’s excellent performance. B. The collective care of the community. C. The car’s extraordinary function. D. The academic credits students earned. 5. Why did Eddie Brown start the vehicle donation program? A. To reduce the unemployment rate locally. B. To provide technical training for teenagers. C. To share his own successful parenting tips. D. To assist single parents in hard times. 6. How did the car program change Rader’s life? A. It encouraged her to become a mechanic. B. It improved her academic performance. C. It secured her a more stable livelihood. D. It helped her get rid of financial crisis. 7. Which word can replace the underlined word “conduit” in the last paragraph? A. Bridge. B. Street. C. Position. D. Stone. 【答案】4. B 5. D 6. C 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了路易萨县高中的学生联合当地非营利组织“Giving Words”，为单亲母亲Jessica Rader修复并捐赠汽车的暖心故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。 根据第一段““It’s not just about the car,” she whispered, her voice trembling with emotion. “It’s about community.”(“这不仅仅是一辆车的事，” 她轻声说道，声音因激动而颤抖，“这关乎整个社区。”)”可知，Rader最珍视的是社区带来的集体关怀，而非汽车本身。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。 根据第三段“Having struggled as single parents themselves, Brown and his wife understood the stakes (利害关系). “A broken-down car can mean losing a job or missing vital appointments,” Brown explained.(布朗夫妇自己也曾经历过单亲父母的困境，深知其中的利害关系。布朗解释道：“一辆抛锚的车可能意味着丢掉工作或错过重要的预约。”)”以及第四段“He recalled a recent presentation where the class raised the garage doors and clapped as a mother with a baby received her keys.(他回忆起最近的一次交付仪式：车库门缓缓升起，全场鼓掌，一位抱着婴儿的母亲接过了属于她的车钥匙)”可知，Eddie Brown发起该项目是为了在困难时期帮助单亲父母。故选D。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。 根据最后一段““Because of this vehicle, I moved from a part-time job to a full-time career and started school,” she said. (她说：“因为这辆车，我从兼职变成了全职工作，还开始上学了。”)”可知，汽车项目让Rader获得了更稳定的生计和发展机会。故选C。 【7题详解】 词句猜测题。 根据最后一段“For Rader, the car was a conduit to a new life. Within three months of connecting with the program, her world shifted. “Because of this vehicle, I moved from a part-time job to a full-time career and started school,” she said.(对Rader而言，这辆车是新生活的conduit。加入该项目短短三个月内，她的人生就发生了转变。她说：“因为这辆车，我从兼职变成了全职工作，还开始上学了。”)”可知，这辆车帮助Rader开启新生活，从兼职到全职、重返校园，是连接她过去困境与未来新生活的纽带，A选项“Bridge.(桥梁)”可替换该句中“conduit”。故选A。 C From this week, the UK has introduced strict rules to protect children from junk food advertising. Ads for 13 categories of processed foods and drinks, such as sugary soft drinks, crisps, and chocolates, are banned online and can only air on TV after 9 p.m. The reason is rising childhood obesity (肥胖). Our exclusive report last week highlighted doctors’ calls for routine blood pressure testing in children, emphasizing the dangers of obesity and the case for preventing it. The longer-term trend, both nationally and internationally, is widely recognised as alarming. Since the UK’s child measurement programme began 20 years ago, obesity rates among primary-age children in England have climbed from 17.5% to 22.1%. Obesity deepens social inequality, with rates in poverty-stricken areas twice as likely to be obese as those in wealthy ones. The resulting health risks — type 2 diabetes, stroke, and cardiovascular diseases — add to the hardships of the disadvantaged. This concentration of harm is a key reason to welcome the advertising restrictions. Like gambling (赌博) or smoking, the uneven impact of unhealthy processed foods on already-struggling households is among their most damaging effects. Children often lack the knowledge and maturity to make decisions about fat, sugar, and salt intake. For the UK government, narrowing the gaps that restrict the life chances of disadvantaged children must always be a priority. Public debate on obesity has increasingly focused on new weight-loss drugs, yet in the UK, these are available only to a small group of severely obese children. This highlights the need to prioritize prevention and public health initiatives around food, as a healthy lifestyle involves exercise and nutrition, not just body weight. Charities like Sustain have criticized the concessions (让步) made to industry giants, such as allowing brand advertising as long as specific junk foods are not displayed. Their caution is justified: last year saw record snack food sales, and billboard advertising — less controlled by rules — has rocketed. But while the new rules will not end childhood obesity and should have been in place sooner, as with other half measures, they are much better than none at all. 8. What is the main purpose of the new UK rules? A. To protect children from obesity risks. B. To encourage people to break bad habits. C. To limit junk food sales to evenings. D. To enforce blood pressure testing in schools. 9. Why does the author mention gambling and smoking in paragraph 3? A. To explain the causes of poverty. B. To show they are addictive. C. To stress junk foods’ harm to the poor. D. To list common bad habits for children. 10. What is mainly talked about in paragraph 5? A. Weight-loss drugs are too expensive for ordinary families. B. A healthy lifestyle includes exercise and balanced nutrition. C. Prevention is more important than medicine for obesity. D. Public attention has been paid to new weight-loss drugs. 11. What is the best title for the passage? A. Childhood Obesity: The Growing Crisis B. Health Inequality: The Widening Divide C. Stricter rules: The Call for Action D. Handling Obesity: UK’s New Ad Rules 【答案】8. A 9. C 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了英国出台严格新规禁止垃圾食品广告的背景、原因、意义以及作者对该新规的评价。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“From this week, the UK has introduced strict rules to protect children from junk food advertising.(本周起，英国出台严格规定，保护儿童免受垃圾食品广告的侵害。)”以及第二段“The reason is rising childhood obesity(肥胖).(原因是儿童肥胖问题日益严重。)”可知，英国新规的主要目的是保护儿童免受肥胖风险。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Like gambling (赌博) or smoking, the uneven impact of unhealthy processed foods on already‑struggling households is among their most damaging effects.(和赌博、吸烟一样，不健康的加工食品对本就处境艰难的家庭产生的不均衡影响，是其最具破坏性的影响之一。)”可知，作者提及赌博和吸烟，是为了强调垃圾食品对贫困人群的危害。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第五段“This highlights the need to prioritize prevention and public health initiatives around food, as a healthy lifestyle involves exercise and nutrition, not just body weight.(这凸显了优先开展与食品相关的预防工作和公共卫生举措的必要性，因为健康的生活方式包括运动和营养，而不仅仅是体重。)”可知，第五段主要讲述对于肥胖而言，预防比药物更重要。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“From this week, the UK has introduced strict rules to protect children from junk food advertising.(本周起，英国出台严格规定，保护儿童免受垃圾食品广告的侵害。)”及全文围绕英国出台垃圾食品广告新规来应对儿童肥胖问题展开可知，D项“Handling Obesity: UK’s New Ad Rules(应对肥胖：英国的新广告规定)”最能概括全文主旨。 D A major policy challenge with AI is just how skillful it’s become at role-playing as humans. Users now regularly turn to AI chatbots for life advice, mental health support, and even guidance on relationship issues. Safety advocates (提倡者) in the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) recently announced that it’s launching a formal inquiry into seven major companies, focusing on whether their AI chatbots have enough safety preparations to prevent risks like misinformation or improper emotional control. Yet there’s another way to see AI as a policy issue: Could AI one day be worthy of legal rights? Some leading tech firms are taking this question seriously. Last year, AI company Anthropic hired its first “AI welfare researcher”, tasked with studying whether advanced AI systems might deserve reasonable treatment, which includes preventing unnecessary “stress” from overwork so that they can function well or reducing harmful data inputs for overall safer use. Former Southern District of New York judge Katherine B. Forrest, who specializes in AI policy, notes that there may never be widespread agreement on exactly when AI qualifies for moral standing, but as public belief in AI’s capacity grows, courts will eventually have to face this brand-new challenge. Extending rights to AI also forces a fundamental rethink of what should count as the harm to AI. “If it has balanced emotions like humans, then suffering would certainly be counted,” said Forrest. Traditional law, for instance, focuses on compensating (赔偿) humans for financial losses, physical injuries, or emotional pains. But if future AI has needs and desires entirely different from humans, legal systems must adapt. Some scholars, like law professor Peter Salib from the University of Houston, argue for giving rights to advanced AI — specifically artificial general intelligence. Salib has written in his work of scholarship that giving AI rights to contracts, property and tort claims would allow it to participate in the economic system and could even benefit humans. 12. Why does the FTC launch the inquiry? A. To identify AI firms’ challenges. B. To check AI chatbots’ functions. C. To know AI firms’ security measures. D. To advocate for AI chatbots’ rights. 13. What can be the reasonable treatment of AI systems? A. Upgrading human orders. B. Avoiding heavy workload. C. Allowing data collection. D. Drafting privacy policies. 14. What encourages Peter Salib to advocate giving AI rights? A. AI’s participation in research. B. AI’s potential in the economy. C. AI’s need for legal protection. D. AI’s difficulty of advancement. 15. What’s the author’s attitude to AI rights? A. Doubtful. B. Disapproving. C. Objective. D. Supportive. 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】主要围绕人工智能展开探讨，谈及AI聊天机器人安全审查，同时讨论人工智能是否应当被赋予合法权利。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Safety advocates (提倡者) in the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) recently announced that it’s launching a formal inquiry into seven major companies, focusing on whether their AI chatbots have enough safety preparations to prevent risks like misinformation or improper emotional control. (美国联邦贸易委员会的安全倡议人士近日宣布，将对七家头部企业展开正式调查，核查其人工智能聊天机器人是否具备充足安全防护措施，以防范虚假信息传播、情绪管控失当等各类风险。)”可知，FTC发起调查是为了了解AI公司的安全措施。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Last year, AI company Anthropic hired its first “AI welfare researcher”, tasked with studying whether advanced AI systems might deserve reasonable treatment, which includes preventing unnecessary “stress” from overwork so that they can function well or reducing harmful data inputs for overall safer use. (去年，人工智能企业安索普克聘用了首位人工智能福利研究员，其工作是探究高级人工智能系统是否应当享有合理对待，包括避免超负荷运转带来不必要的负担以保障其正常运作，以及减少有害数据输入，提升整体使用安全性。)”可知，避免繁重的工作量是对AI系统合理对待的一种方式。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Salib has written in his work of scholarship that giving AI rights to contracts, property and tort claims would allow it to participate in the economic system and could even benefit humans. (萨利布在其学术著作中写道，赋予人工智能合同、财产及侵权索赔相关权利，能使其参与经济体系运作，甚至还可为人类带来益处。)”可知，AI在经济方面的潜力促使彼得·萨利布倡导赋予AI权利。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Could AI one day be worthy of legal rights?(人工智能未来是否能够拥有合法权利？)”以及文中依次罗列企业、法官、学者各方不同观点，全文仅客观罗列各类看法与相关现象，未出现作者个人褒贬评判语句，由此可判断，作者对此持客观中立的态度。 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。 Marine mammals (海洋哺乳动物) are up against many dangers, many brought about by humans. ___16___.

G 20. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了保护海洋哺乳动物的一些具体措施，包括减少塑料使用、清理海滩、遵守航行法规和加强海洋知识教育。 【16题详解】 前文“Marine mammals (海洋哺乳动物) are up against many dangers, many brought about by humans. (海洋哺乳动物正面临许多危险，其中大部分是人类活动造成的)”提到海洋哺乳动物面临诸多危险，后文段落列举具体保护措施，此处是承上启下的过渡句，既要呼应前文的危险，又要引出后文的保护措施，因此D项“Thankfully, there are simple things we can do to help (值得庆幸的是，我们可以采取一些简单的措施来帮助它们)”符合语境，总领后文的四项措施。故选D。 【17题详解】 前文“Our oceans see increasing plastic trash which endangers marine mammals. (我们的海洋中塑料垃圾日益增多，这严重威胁着海洋哺乳动物的生存)”提到海洋塑料增多带来危害，后文“They can become trapped in plastic, which can cause them to suffocate (闷死). Some marine mammals can mistake plastic for food, eat it, and die. Plastic trash in the ocean also causes lacerations (割伤) to these animals, leading to infection and death. (它们可能被塑料制品缠绕而窒息身亡。有些海洋哺乳动物会将塑料误认为食物，吞食后导致死亡。海洋中的塑料垃圾还会割伤这些动物，造成感染甚至致命)”列举具体危害，此处需说明塑料以多种形式造成伤害，与后文形成总分结构，因此C项“There are many ways it is harming marine mammals (塑料正在以多种方式伤害海洋哺乳动物)”符合语境，引出后文三点危害。故选C。 【18题详解】 本段小标题是“Help clean up the beaches (帮助清理海滩)”，后文“Do not leave trash or objects on the beach. Anything you leave on the beach can end up in the water, having the potential to impact or harm what’s living in the water. (切勿在海滩遗留垃圾或其他物品。任何遗留在海滩上的物品都可能最终进入海洋，对水生生物造成潜在威胁甚至伤害)”具体建议不要在海滩上留下物品，并解释原因，此处需提出海滩行为的一般准则，因此E项“Leave the beach like or better than we find it if we visit the beach (离开海滩时保持或做到比来时更干净的状态)”符合语境，呼应清理的主题。故选E。 【19题详解】 前文“Knowing and following the laws is essential whether you live near the ocean or only travel there occasionally. They are in place for a reason. (了解并遵守相关法律法规至关重要——无论你是长期滨海而居还是偶尔到访。这些法规的制定都有着充分的依据)”强调遵守航行法规，后文“Following these rules can help keep marine mammals like manatees safe. (遵守这些规则有助于保护海牛等海洋哺乳动物的安全)”说明遵守具体规则的作用，此处需列出具体法律案例，因此G项“For example, certain waterways are protected areas with speed limitations for boaters (例如，某些水道是保护区，对船只设速限)”符合语境，承前启后。故选G。 【20题详解】 后文“Learn more about the ocean and marine wildlife. (深入了解海洋及海洋野生动物)”和“Visit educational bases working on protecting these animals to learn what you can do to make a difference. (探访动物保护教育基地，了解如何通过实际行动为保护海洋生物贡献力量)”建议学习海洋知识以及参观教育基地，均与教育相关，此处是段落标题，应建议做好海洋教育，且需和其他段落标题一样使用祈使句的形式，因此A项“Educate ourselves (自我教育)”符合语境，概括后文的行动。故选A。 第三部分 语言知识运用(共三节，满分30分) 第一节 完形填空(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四个选项(A、B、C和D)中选出可以填入空白出的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Ram received an automobile as a birthday present.

Whether 45. an 【解析】 【导语】主要介绍贵州苗侗民族特色长桌宴的命名由来、举办场合、迎宾习俗、文化内涵以及其独特的民族风情价值。 【36题详解】 考查代词。句意：长桌宴因其长长的桌子而得名。此处修饰名词短语long tables，需用形容词性物主代词，it的形容词性物主代词为its。 【37题详解】 考查介词。句意：它是中国贵州苗族和侗族特有的传统宴席。固定搭配unique to，意为“为……所特有”，所以此处为介词to。 【38题详解】 考查动词语态。句意：这种宴席在重大节日、婚礼或是迎宾场合举办。此处为谓语动词，描述客观习俗用一般现在时，主语The feast与hold之间为被动关系，所以用一般现在时的被动语态，主语为第三人称单数，所以谓语动词为is held。 【39题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：村民们身着传统服饰，用当地特色菜肴招待宾客。此处为非谓语动词作状语，逻辑主语villagers与dress之间为被动关系，所以用过去分词dressed，位于句首，首字母需大写。 【40题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：当宾客沿着长桌前行时，当地人会迎接他们，当地人的习俗是为宾客敬上自酿米酒。此处引导非限制性定语从句，先行词为locals，关系词在从句中作定语修饰custom，所以用关系代词whose。 【41题详解】 考查动词时态。句意：长桌宴还有传统民歌和芦笙演奏为特色，增添了节日氛围。此处为谓语动词，陈述客观事实用一般现在时，主语The feast是第三人称单数，所以谓语动词为features。 【42题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：长桌宴还有传统民歌和芦笙演奏为特色，增添了节日氛围。此处为非谓语动词作状语，add与逻辑主语整句话内容之间是主动关系，所以用现在分词adding作状语。 【43题详解】 考查名词。句意：长桌宴不只是一顿饭，更是贵州丰富文化的鲜活体现，彰显集体友善、慷慨大方与文化传承的价值观。此处与community、heritage并列，需用名词，generous的名词形式为generosity意为“慷慨大方”。 【44题详解】 考查连词。句意：无论你是本地人还是游客，参与长桌宴都是体验贵州少数民族生活温情与传统的一种难忘方式。固定搭配whether...or...，意为“无论……还是……”，位于句首，首字母需大写。 【45题详解】 考查冠词。句意：无论你是本地人还是游客，参与长桌宴都是体验贵州少数民族生活温情与传统的一种难忘方式。way为可数名词单数，空前无限定词，结合句意，此处表示“一种难忘的方式”为泛指，且unforgettable是以元音音素开头的单词，所以用不定冠词an。 第四部分 任务型阅读(共两节，满分20分) 任务型阅读 Last month, during my trip to a unique nature reserve in the deep mountains, I had an unforgettable experience that changed my view of wildlife. The sun was setting, casting long shadows across the valley. While I was walking slowly along a quiet, narrow path, a sudden, sharp sound from the thick, tall grass attracted my attention. Curiously, I approached the bushes quietly and was shocked to find a small deer trapped in a discarded plastic net. Its leg was bleeding, and it looked frightened, its eyes filled with terror. The deer struggled in panic, trying to break free from the “plastic trap” but only making the net tighter. I knew I couldn’t just leave it there in such a dangerous situation, as night was falling and predators might be nearby. Driven by a strong sense of responsibility, I insisted on helping the poor creature, despite the risk of being kicked by its powerful legs. Without hesitation, I knelt down, took out a small knife from my pocket, and began to cut the net with great concentration. My guide, Tashi, a knowledgeable ranger (护林员)who had worked in the forest for years, hurried over to help. He gently covered the deer’s eyes with his jacket and helped me hold its head to keep it calm. During the whole tiring process, I felt extremely concerned, fearing that the wound might be too deep for the deer to survive on its own. Fortunately, after we carefully cleaned and tied the wound, the deer finally stood up, shaking its body. It looked at us for a second, then turned around and disappeared into the deep, green woods. I stood there for a long time, watching the empty path where it had just been. At that moment, the forest was quiet and peaceful again. I looked at the sunset and began to think about the relationship between humans and the wild… 46. 根据文本内容从方框中选择恰当的词并用其正确形式填入文本图示中，每词限用一次，有两词为多余选项。 approach attract danger hesitate insist knowledgeable panic protection sense survive traditional unique I visited a ________ nature reserve in the deep mountains.

(他用外套轻轻遮住鹿的眼睛，并帮我扶住它的头让它保持平静)”和第四段中“after we carefully cleaned and tied the wound (在我们仔细清洗并包扎伤口之后)”可知，作者割断网，护林员遮住鹿眼并扶住鹿头让其平静，两人共同清洗包扎伤口。 【49题详解】 考查推理判断。根据最后一段中“I looked at the sunset and began to think about the relationship between humans and the wild… (我看着日落，开始思考人类与野生世界的关系……)”可推知，这次经历后，作者开始反思人与自然的关系，认识到其重要性。人类应当保护野生动物，与自然和谐共处。我们要减少污染，关爱野生动物。 第五部分 书面表达(共20分) 50. 假定你是李华，最近收到好友Jason的来信，信中说他因为完全依赖AI完成作业而受到老师批评，他感到很难过。请你写一封回信，内容包括： （1）对依赖AI完成作业的看法； （2）你的建议。 注意：1．词数100左右； 2．可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯； 3．开头结尾已给出，不计入词数。 Dear Jason, ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I am looking forward to your reply! Yours, Li Hua 【答案】Dear Jason, I’m sorry to learn about your current trouble regarding the use of Al tools for your assignment. I can fully understand how you feel because I once also had the urge to rely on AI to handle my heavy academic tasks. However, I firmly believe that AI should never take the place of our own thinking and hard work. Even though AI can indeed offer help in some aspects, but depending too much on it not only goes against the true meaning of learning but also damages academic honesty. So, here are my suggestions. First, try to do your assignments more independently. You can use Al as a reference, but make sure to think and analyze by yourself. Second, have an honest talk with your teacher. Explain your situation and show that you’re willing to learn sincerely from now on. Hope these ideas can be of some help to you. All the best. I am looking forward to your reply! Yours, Li Hua 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达属于应用文，要求考生给好友Jason写封信，谈一下你对依赖AI完成作业的看法以及你的建议。 【详解】1.词汇积累 处理：handle→deal with 然而：however→nevertheless 利用：use→employ 依赖：rely on→depend on 2.句式拓展 简单句变复合句 原句：I’m sorry to learn about your current trouble regarding the use of Al tools for your assignment. 拓展句：I’m sorry to learn about your current trouble which is related to the use of Al tools for your assignment. 【点睛】[高分句型1] I can fully understand how you feel because I once also had the urge to rely on AI to handle my heavy academic tasks.

B Holding the key to a car, 40-year-old Jessica Rader couldn’t help but weep. “It’s not just about the car,” she whispered, her voice trembling with emotion. “It’s about community.” The vehicle was more than a gift; it was a masterpiece of kindness crafted by students at Louisa County High School. For several months, these teenagers had labored in their automotive workshop to repair the car specifically for Rader, a single mother of three. “Kids who never met me cared enough to ensure my family’s safety,” Rader remarked, still breathless from the encounter. This heartwarming scene was part of a partnership between the school and Giving Words, a local nonprofit founded by Eddie Brown. Having struggled as single parents themselves, Brown and his wife understood the stakes (利害关系). “A broken-down car can mean losing a job or missing vital appointments,” Brown explained. Since 2018, they have donated over 60 cars to single mothers, with high schoolers renewing about half of them. In the school’s garage, the connection of education and real life becomes visible. Under the guidance of teacher Shane Robertson, about 20 students per car handle everything from brake repairs to battery testing. For 16-year-old Holden Pekary, the experience is deeply rewarding. He recalled a recent presentation where the class raised the garage doors and clapped as a mother with a baby received her keys. “I put the license plate on for her,” Holden said proudly. “It was nice.” For Rader, the car was a conduit to a new life. Within three months of connecting with the program, her world shifted. “Because of this vehicle, I moved from a part-time job to a full-time career and started school,” she said. Beyond the car, Giving Words also gave her free oil changes, as well as diapers (尿布) and clothing for her sons. A little mechanical help can drive a soul toward a brighter future. 4. What did Rader value most? A. The car’s excellent performance. B. The collective care of the community. C. The car’s extraordinary function. D. The academic credits students earned. 5. Why did Eddie Brown start the vehicle donation program? A. To reduce the unemployment rate locally. B. To provide technical training for teenagers. C. To share his own successful parenting tips. D. To assist single parents in hard times. 6. How did the car program change Rader’s life? A. It encouraged her to become a mechanic. B. It improved her academic performance. C. It secured her a more stable livelihood. D. It helped her get rid of financial crisis. 7. Which word can replace the underlined word “conduit” in the last paragraph? A. Bridge. B. Street. C. Position. D. Stone. C From this week, the UK has introduced strict rules to protect children from junk food advertising. Ads for 13 categories of processed foods and drinks, such as sugary soft drinks, crisps, and chocolates, are banned online and can only air on TV after 9 p.m. The reason is rising childhood obesity (肥胖). Our exclusive report last week highlighted doctors’ calls for routine blood pressure testing in children, emphasizing the dangers of obesity and the case for preventing it. The longer-term trend, both nationally and internationally, is widely recognised as alarming. Since the UK’s child measurement programme began 20 years ago, obesity rates among primary-age children in England have climbed from 17.5% to 22.1%. Obesity deepens social inequality, with rates in poverty-stricken areas twice as likely to be obese as those in wealthy ones. The resulting health risks — type 2 diabetes, stroke, and cardiovascular diseases — add to the hardships of the disadvantaged. This concentration of harm is a key reason to welcome the advertising restrictions. Like gambling (赌博) or smoking, the uneven impact of unhealthy processed foods on already-struggling households is among their most damaging effects. Children often lack the knowledge and maturity to make decisions about fat, sugar, and salt intake. For the UK government, narrowing the gaps that restrict the life chances of disadvantaged children must always be a priority. Public debate on obesity has increasingly focused on new weight-loss drugs, yet in the UK, these are available only to a small group of severely obese children. This highlights the need to prioritize prevention and public health initiatives around food, as a healthy lifestyle involves exercise and nutrition, not just body weight. Charities like Sustain have criticized the concessions (让步) made to industry giants, such as allowing brand advertising as long as specific junk foods are not displayed. Their caution is justified: last year saw record snack food sales, and billboard advertising — less controlled by rules — has rocketed.

Handling Obesity: UK’s New Ad Rules D A major policy challenge with AI is just how skillful it’s become at role-playing as humans. Users now regularly turn to AI chatbots for life advice, mental health support, and even guidance on relationship issues. Safety advocates (提倡者) in the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) recently announced that it’s launching a formal inquiry into seven major companies, focusing on whether their AI chatbots have enough safety preparations to prevent risks like misinformation or improper emotional control. Yet there’s another way to see AI as a policy issue: Could AI one day be worthy of legal rights? Some leading tech firms are taking this question seriously. Last year, AI company Anthropic hired its first “AI welfare researcher”, tasked with studying whether advanced AI systems might deserve reasonable treatment, which includes preventing unnecessary “stress” from overwork so that they can function well or reducing harmful data inputs for overall safer use. Former Southern District of New York judge Katherine B. Forrest, who specializes in AI policy, notes that there may never be widespread agreement on exactly when AI qualifies for moral standing, but as public belief in AI’s capacity grows, courts will eventually have to face this brand-new challenge. Extending rights to AI also forces a fundamental rethink of what should count as the harm to AI. “If it has balanced emotions like humans, then suffering would certainly be counted,” said Forrest. Traditional law, for instance, focuses on compensating (赔偿) humans for financial losses, physical injuries, or emotional pains. But if future AI has needs and desires entirely different from humans, legal systems must adapt. Some scholars, like law professor Peter Salib from the University of Houston, argue for giving rights to advanced AI — specifically artificial general intelligence. Salib has written in his work of scholarship that giving AI rights to contracts, property and tort claims would allow it to participate in the economic system and could even benefit humans. 12. Why does the FTC launch the inquiry? A. To identify AI firms’ challenges. B. To check AI chatbots’ functions. C. To know AI firms’ security measures. D. To advocate for AI chatbots’ rights. 13. What can be the reasonable treatment of AI systems? A. Upgrading human orders. B. Avoiding heavy workload. C. Allowing data collection. D. Drafting privacy policies. 14. What encourages Peter Salib to advocate giving AI rights? A. AI’s participation in research. B. AI’s potential in the economy. C. AI’s need for legal protection. D. AI’s difficulty of advancement. 15. What’s the author’s attitude to AI rights? A. Doubtful. B. Disapproving. C. Objective. D. Supportive. 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。 Marine mammals (海洋哺乳动物) are up against many dangers, many brought about by humans. ___16___.

The sun was setting, casting long shadows across the valley. While I was walking slowly along a quiet, narrow path, a sudden, sharp sound from the thick, tall grass attracted my attention. Curiously, I approached the bushes quietly and was shocked to find a small deer trapped in a discarded plastic net. Its leg was bleeding, and it looked frightened, its eyes filled with terror. The deer struggled in panic, trying to break free from the “plastic trap” but only making the net tighter. I knew I couldn’t just leave it there in such a dangerous situation, as night was falling and predators might be nearby. Driven by a strong sense of responsibility, I insisted on helping the poor creature, despite the risk of being kicked by its powerful legs. Without hesitation, I knelt down, took out a small knife from my pocket, and began to cut the net with great concentration. My guide, Tashi, a knowledgeable ranger (护林员)who had worked in the forest for years, hurried over to help. He gently covered the deer’s eyes with his jacket and helped me hold its head to keep it calm. During the whole tiring process, I felt extremely concerned, fearing that the wound might be too deep for the deer to survive on its own. Fortunately, after we carefully cleaned and tied the wound, the deer finally stood up, shaking its body. It looked at us for a second, then turned around and disappeared into the deep, green woods. I stood there for a long time, watching the empty path where it had just been. At that moment, the forest was quiet and peaceful again.
