The Waterbearers by Sasha Bonét This poetic memoir (回忆录) covers generations of powerful Black women who raise their children singly and pass on strength by showing up. The author’s grandmother may have little money, but there’s enough to feed anyone who appears. The author’s mother is tough and wise. Sasha writes her own mothering story as a successful professional troubled by racism. The Heart-Shaped Tin by Bee Wilson Inspired by her meeting the giant heart-shaped pan she used to bake her wedding cake, Wilson began asking others, “Who had invested objects in their kitchens with strong meanings or emotions?” The result is a delightful and moving collection of essays about how we access memories through the items we cook and eat with. Black Woods, Blue Sky by Eowyn Ivey In this novel, when Birdie, a single mother raising her daughter, Emaleen, in rural Alaska, loves a recluse (隐居者) named Arthur, it’s a chance for a fresh start and a freer life in the wild. But their dream is threatened by Arthur’s true nature. In this story, the dark and scary woods are also a place that cultivates love and forgiveness. The Compound by Aisling Rawle When contestants are dropped in the remote desert to film a reality show, they must couple up to stay in the game and complete tasks. As the tasks become more dangerous, contestants don’t know who to trust, but they stay more interested in winning brand deals than their own well-being. With focus on influencer culture and our ability to look the other way, you feel as trapped in the story as the contestants. 21. What is the central theme of The Waterbearers? A. The poverty of Black families. B. Generations of Black women. C. Memories tied to the kitchen. D. The rural life of a single mother. 22. Which book suits a reader who is drawn to a risky romance in the wild? A. The Waterbearers. B. The Heart-Shaped Tin. C. Black Woods, Blue Sky. D. The Compound. 23. What is required of the contestants in the desert? A. Protecting the partners from danger. B. Forming their influencer culture. C. Designing a reality show about a game. D. Partnering with others for the tasks. B Recently, a remote robotic surgery saved the life of a 62-year-old football fan with cancer, with the patient in Gibraltar and the surgeon in London. Inside the operating theatre at St. Bernard’s, the only hospital in the British overseas territory, a hi-tech robot with a 3D camera and four arms removed the diseased organ of Paul Buxton. Prof. Prokar Dasgupta was performing the procedure 1,400 miles away from London. With the help of technology services provider, Dasgupta used a console (控制台) in London to guide the Toumai Robotic System through a sequence of steps during which Buxton successfully underwent the operation. After his unique experience, he said he felt fantastic within days. After his cancer diagnosis, Buxton had expected to join the NHS waiting list and travel back to England because of the complex nature of the operation. To avoid this, he jumped at the chance to have surgery remotely. Buxton, who was originally from Somerset, England, said it was a no-brainer to be involved. “I never expected to be part of medical history,” he said. Dasgupta said the milestone surgery went extremely well. “We operated using the hi-tech robot. It is completely controlled from a console, which is like a computer console, using high-speed lines.” The console in London was linked to the robot in Gibraltar with a backup 5G connection. A team on the ground at St. Bernard’s stood ready to take over in case the connection dropped. Remote surgery is advancing rapidly around the world, with recent breakthroughs enabling real-time long-distance procedures. Remote surgery meant patients in remote areas can avoid vast expense and inconvenience in traveling for care. Next, Dasgupta will repeat the remote procedure with another patient in a month, this time with 20,000 surgeons watching via live streaming. 24. How did Prof. Dasgupta perform the surgery? A. He directed local surgeons remotely. B. He provided guidance to the hospital. C. He instructed a robot remotely to do it. D. He invented a robotic surgical system. 25. Why did Buxton decide to take the chance? A. To experience new technology. B. To avoid going back to England. C. To get into the NHS waiting list. D. To be involved in medical history. 26. What was the purpose of the team on standby? A. To watch the function of the camera. B. To learn advanced surgery skills. C. To keep the 5G connection going. D. To step in for the surgery in case. 27. What does the author imply about remote surgery in the last paragraph? A. It is growing more popular. B. It eases the pain of patients. C. It monitors the medical system. D. It needs further breakthroughs. C A large two-decade study suggests a Mediterranean diet rich in nuts, seafood, whole grains, and vegetables can reduce the risk of all forms of stroke (中风) by as much as 25%. While the study doesn’t prove cause and effect — only an association — experts noted the significant potential for stroke prevention. The research, led by scientists from the US and Greece, found the Mediterranean diet was linked to a lower risk of stroke overall, particularly ischaemic stroke — the most common type, caused by blocked blood flow to the brain. “We were especially interested to see that this finding applies to ischaemic stroke, as few large studies have looked at this type,” said study author Sophia Wang from a cancer center in California. The study followed 105,614 California women, average age 53, with no history of stroke, for 21 years. Participants scored zero to nine based on how closely they followed the Mediterranean diet. Points were awarded for above-average consumption of whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and fish, moderate alcohol intake, and below-average consumption of red meat and dairy. About 30% scored six to nine (highest group), while 13% scored zero to two (lowest group). After adjusting for factors like smoking, physical activity, and high blood pressure, the highest group was 18% less likely to have any stroke and 16% less likely to have an ischaemic stroke compared to the lowest group. However, the study included only women and relied on self-reported diet data — but independent experts found the results significant. Juliet Bouverie, chief executive of the Stroke Association, noted that nine out of ten strokes are preventable. “It’s long been known that eating a Mediterranean diet can help lower the risk of diseases such as stroke. We welcome how this has now been shown to reduce the risk of total strokes,” she said. “Ischaemic strokes are severe, so it’s wonderful that this study throws light on this critical yet understudied subtype,” she added. Further research is needed to confirm these findings and understand the mechanisms (结构) behind them. 28. What can be learned about the Mediterranean diet from paragraph 1? A. It helps treat a quarter of stroke. B. It proves to prevent heart disease. C. It correlates with lower stroke risk. D. It reduces the symptom of stroke. 29. How does the author present the result of the study? A. By quoting an expert. B. By challenging a thought. C. By clarifying a concept. D. By providing statistics. 30. What was one of the limits of the research? A. It aimed at a quarter of one’s lifetime. B. The subjects self-reported their data. C. It excluded people from other cultures. D. Other unhealthy habits were ignored. 31. What can be inferred from Juliet’s comment? A. The study confirms a long-held opinion. B. The findings contradict previous studies. C. Research on ischaemic strokes should begin. D. The study reveals the mechanisms of strokes. D Eyes fixed on the patient’s leg, the doctor proceeds to remove the injured leg — or infection and death would swiftly follow. The patient and surgeon are ants. Then comes post-operative care: The surgeon cleans the wound with its tongue. Erik Frank, a biologist at the University of Würzburg, has been collecting such examples of ants tending to each other’s wounds, which are known as instances of social immunocompetence (免疫力) — the ability of an organism to use social interactions and behaviors to enhance immunity and control infection. So far, his observations span more than two dozen species. These interventions are remarkably effective. In Camponotus, a carpenter ant found mainly in Africa, amputating (截肢) an upper-leg wound within an hour boosts survival. In earlier research, Frank observed ants carrying wounded nestmates back from battle and cleaning their wounds. If the wound gets infected, they treat it with their tongues, sharply increasing the victim’s survival chance. In another species, workers with infected wounds are driven out, while those with minor injuries stayed for care. Susanne Foitzik of the University of Mainz is investigating the genes involved in rescue and wound-care behavior. In a North American species of ants frequently injured when other ants raid (袭击) their territories to enslave them, she has identified genetic variants strongly linked to wound care. She plans further experiments to home in on what these genes are doing. Frank’s research may also benefit humans. He has found 70 compounds, including 20 proteins, with antibacterial and wound-healing properties, some of which could help us fight drug-resistant human viruses. Ants are not alone in tending their sick. Insects, with their tiny brains, rely on genetic ability for this behavior. The birds and mammals on the list are capable of reasoning things out. But natural selection is about outcomes, not means. And in ants, it has produced complex medical systems requiring little more than a strong pair of jaws. 32. What’s the characteristic of social immunocompetence? A. Amputating a wounded leg to save life. B. Boosting immunity through socialization. C. Developing genetic variants by interaction. D. Keeping the wounded ants out of the group. 33. What does the underlined part “home in on” mean in paragraph 3? A. Rule out. B. Bring back. C. Attend to. D. Aim at. 34. How can Frank’s research benefit humans? A. By finding genetic variants. B. By improving social interactions. C. By targeting resistant viruses. D. By learning animals’ caring ability. 35. What is a proper title for the text? A. Ants’ Complex Medical Systems B. The Genetics of Rescue Behavior C. Evolution of the Insect Brain D. Animals’ Treatment of Infections 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Last year, when I began my first year of college, I was excited about the opportunity to socialize and engage in campus life. 36 For two weeks I studied alone for the exams in my room with a pile of textbooks. One day in the next semester, while exploring ChatGPT, I noticed a new voice feature that enabled conversation, which I thought would completely change how I study. 37 I downloaded a ChatGPT, fed my course materials into it and started having conversations with its voice mode. I chose one of the voice options that sounded almost human. While I was studying, I started to feel less lonely. In the past, I had always avoided using AI tools for academic work unless instructed to do so by my professor. But now, for two to three hours a day, I used ChatGPT this way for three of my five courses. ChatGPT became my study partner. With it, I felt like having a human tutor always by my side. 38 AI didn’t write my exams or give me answers. 39 What it did was help me learn, I value the skills gained from learning the material more than my final mark. It made studying feel like an intellectual conversation. 40 Many people are rightly concerned about them being used to cheat, I learned AI can be used to learn more, not replace learning. For me, AI certainly didn’t replace studying; rather, it just made it more engaging. A. So I decided to give it a try. B. Nor would I have wanted it to. C. But things changed around exam season. D. What surprised me was how boring it felt. E. People may hold various views of AI tools. F. I often reflect on those two weeks of lonely studying. G. This made it available and helpful for my understanding. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 This morning I was cleaning the birdcage.

They were vacationing near Quindalup, a coastal town in Western Australia known for its excellent beaches and waters. Just before noon, Austin and his mom, Joanne, decided to explore the coastline in a double kayak (皮划艇), while his younger siblings, Beau (12) and Grace (8), each took a paddleboard (桨板) to practice their balancing skills on the gentle waves near the shore. The sun was high, and the family was filled with excitement for a perfect day on the water. The water was calm at first, but strong winds quickly picked up, and the waves grew rough within minutes. The kayak, caught by a massive wave, quickly filled with water and overturned. In a flash, Austin and his mom were struggling to stay above water. Meanwhile, Beau and Grace fought to keep their balance as the powerful waves carried their paddleboards farther from the beach. With the younger children drifting (漂流) dangerously out to sea, Joanne made a tough decision born of desperation. She looked at her son, his eyes wide with fear but still holding determination, and asked him to swim to shore on his own to get help. Austin first tried to paddle the damaged kayak, but it kept filling with water. Realizing it would not hold, he abandoned it and pushed himself into the cold water. His life jacket, meant to save him, was slowing him down as it caught the wind and dragged against the current, so he made the risky decision to remove it and swim on his own. The 13-year-old battled cold, rough waves and strong currents while trying to reach shore, each move demanding more energy than the last. The shore seemed close yet impossibly far as he fought against the pull of the ocean. Salt water stung his eyes and filled his mouth as waves crashed over him. 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。 Austin focused on happy thoughts to keep him swimming. An ambulance came, and a rescue helicopter was sent out to find the kayak. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 参考答案及解析 高三英语（三） 题号 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 答案 B A B A B C B A C C B A A B B C A A C C 题号 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 答案 B C D C B D A C D B A B D C A C A G B E 题号 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 答案 C D B C A B A D C D B D A C B 56. where 57. treatment 58.

I’m writing to invite you to contribute an article to our school’s English newspaper. Considering your keen interest in Chinese culture, and that you just visited the Chinese Cultural Garden last week, we’d love to read about your impressions. It can’t be better if you can share with our readers what fascinated you most, how you felt experiencing traditional architecture, or any cultural insights you gained. An article of around 300 words would be perfect, along with a photo if possible. Your unique perspective as an exchange student would surely inspire our readers. Looking forward to your piece! Yours, Li Hua 第二节 Austin focused on happy thoughts to keep him swimming. He imagined the relief on his mom’s face when help arrived. Each time a wave crashed over him, he pushed those images to the front of his mind. He thought about how much Beau and Grace depended on him. His arms grew heavy, but he refused to stop. He finally reached the shore and managed to call for an ambulance with the help of a man on the shore. An ambulance came, and a rescue helicopter was sent out to find the kayak. Pretty soon, they were found at sea. They were all weak and cold, but miraculously alive. Austin was soon reunited with them on the beach, where a lifeguard wrapped him in a bear hug, whispering praises for his incredible bravery. What had begun as a simple family adventure now turned out to be a story of bravery and responsibility. It was a day they would never forget, bonded by the power of a young boy’s determination and love. 听力录音文稿 Text 1 W: Will you be a bit faster? I’m running late for my flight. M: No more urging, Madam! I already ran a red light just now and the police will give me a ticket for that. Text 2 M: I’ve switched my routine exercise from weightlifting to running. It clears my head. W: Nice. I prefer team sports — volleyball keeps me fit and social. M: Maybe I’ll join you sometime! Text 3 W: Last week’s debate on renewable energy was intense. I’m ready for today’s topic on urban green spaces. M: Good. And next week we’ll debate universal basic income. I’ve already started my research. Text 4 W: Hey, Tony, you’ve been watching football on your laptop for hours. What’s so interesting? M: Well, while you like to watch baking shows on your mobile, I stream sports online, sometimes a close football game, sometimes a skiing performance. W: We relax so differently. Text 5 W: Evans Clinic. How can I help you? M: This is Mr. Clark. Could I book an appointment for my headache? My sincere apologies for missing last week. An urgent meeting came up unexpectedly then. Text 6 W: Care to go to the cinema tonight, Robert? There’s a classic Bogart revival. M: Linda, I’m afraid I can’t. I’m still preparing for the interview next Monday. That is the day after tomorrow. W: Well, his films ease any stress. Casablanca is perfect. M: Maybe after this. I’ll take you to the cinema. W: It’s a deal. Good luck! Text 7 W: Excuse me, sir. I’d like to return this sweater. My mom bought it the other day, but I find the style is outdated, though the size and color are fine with me. M: I understand, but without any fault, we could only offer store credit instead of an exchange. W: I’m a regular customer. I’d really prefer a full return of the money, or I’ll refer it to your manager. M: Well, for you, I’ll make an exception. I’ll process the problem and give back your money. Text 8 W: George, do you know our company will have a one-week holiday? I’m already planning my trip to Southern Greece! As the most experienced traveler in our office, do you have any traveling plan? M: Well, not this time. I just came back from Snowdonia National Park in July. Next time I’ll visit the Scottish Highlands. W: Did you have any unpleasant memory of traveling? M: Once, I was hiking in the Peak District in England and got caught in a thick fog. I completely lost the trail. W: That sounds scary. What did you do? M: I could only see a few feet ahead. After walking for an hour, I found a fence line and followed it back to a road. My heart was beating wildly the whole time. W: That’s terrifying. The biggest danger might be getting sunburned when traveling in Greece. I think I’ll stick with my beaches and ruins. Text 9 M: Did you watch the Robot Dance Show held on the city square last Sunday? Those robots were incredible — turning, jumping and dancing perfectly. It felt like watching the future. W: Actually, we’ve seen quite a few eye-opening events so far this month, like the fashion show we saw at the shopping center and the cultural show at the museum. But this show makes us wonder what jobs robots can do for us humans perfectly. M: There’re countless examples of the use of advanced technology in our daily life, like checking your heart rate or steps on a smartwatch. W: Personally, I’ve been thinking about getting an advanced AI chatbot to keep my parents company, who are getting old and live alone. M: That’s really thoughtful. I hope the use of AI can help make my learning more efficient, rather than do my homework or stay up late with me. W: That’s exactly what I love. Text 10 Good morning, everyone. I am Professor Chen, and this is Introduction to Environmental Science. I want to go over our schedule for the week and clarify my grading policy, as it is quite strict. This week, we are examining climate change models. For Wednesday’s class, please read Chapter Four on greenhouse gas releases and come prepared with two questions about the data presented. On Friday, we will be in the computer lab learning how to run basic climate research. This is a hands-on session, so attendance is a must. Now, let me explain how your final grade is calculated. First, class attendance is required. I will take attendance at the start of every lecture. More than two unexcused absences will lower your grade by a full letter. Second, your final research paper must be an original analysis of a local environmental issue with real data. I won’t accept any copied work. Finally, class participation matters. Ask questions, join discussions, and show me you are thinking critically. If you sit in silence all semester, it will hurt your final mark. This course demands effort, so be prepared to work. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
