B
After receiving tenure(终身职位)in2O22 I considered taking a vacation.But】hadI5
people in my lab,a partner who is also in academia with his own lab,and two children in
elementary school.I felt I could not step away for a year.Then I connected with researchers in
Uruguay seeking a collaborator experienced in my area,and I got a short-term Fulbright
fellowship to explore the opportunity.I pictured my 3-month stay as an intense period of lab
work,data collection and scientific discoveries.The 5-hour time difference would leave me
with enough hours to catch up with my lab and family back home.
When I arrived,I was dispirited to learn that the shuttle to the institute ran on a schedule
that limited our work hours to 8 a.m.to 3:30 p.m.Mornings started with shared mate and
conversations about our weekends or evenings,followed later by an extended lunch break that
was sacred.I felt impatient.
Yet my research progressed steadily.Outside of work,another kind of progress was
unfolding.I was still working long hours because of my responsibilities as a lab head,graduate
program director,and National Institutes of Health study section member,but the built-in
breaks-which often included an evening snack-made all the difference.I still got my work
done,and the slower rhythm also left space for deeper thinking,both in my experiments and in
my life.I was learning the value of working with intention rather than urgency,and of leaving
room for the parts of life that can't be scheduled.A calmness set in.I found myself laughing
more,sleeping better,and enjoying the life I have worked hard to build.
Midway through my fellowship my family arrived for an extended visit,and I took 3
weeks off for a once-in-a-lifetime journey:We wandered through busy neighborhoods framed
by the Andes,and felt the thunder of waterfalls soaking us in mist.I began to notice small things:
my daughter's fascination with seashells,my son's growing ease with strangers and his first
words of Spanish.
When my fellowship ended8 months ago,I returned with more than a set of data.I came
back with a readjusted sense of how I want to live and work.I block my calendar so that no one
can schedule a meeting during my off hour.I've built small rituals into my routine-a morning
walk,a break away from the screen...These modest changes have reshaped the texture of my
days.I find myself more focused in the lab,more patient with my students,and more present
with my family.Productivity,I've come to see,is not measured only by research papers and
grants.It is also sustained by presence,rest,and the relationships that give meaning to the work.
41.The author's life can be described as before she went to Uruguay.
A.an escape from family duties
B.frequently on the run
C.a rat race with her partner
D.in pursuit of fellowship

42.How did the author initially feel after Icarning the work schedule in Uruguay?
A.disappointed and anxious
B.duty-bound but calm
C.homesick but fulfilling
D.relieved and anticipatory
43.The modest changes mentioned by the author might include
A.becoming available when her lab members need to consult her
B.treating conversations about leisure as a religiously sacred ritual
C.replacing a long lunch break with deep thinking over a snack
D.reserving weekends for her family instead of unfinished work
44.What factor initially caused the author's impatience but eventually contributed to her
mindset shift?
A The 5-hour time difference with her home country.
B.Her heavy academic responsibilities and long work hours.
C.The restricted work hours and built-in breaks.
D.The extended visit from her family midway through the fellowship.
45.Which of the following is probably the best title of the passage?
A.To work or not to work
B.Approach to work-life balance
C.An unexpected journey
D.Success isn't measured by science
C
For centuries,plants have been considered passive organisms,silently enduring their
environment.However,recent research is revealing a world of hidden activity Plants,it seems,
are not only aware of their surroundings but are also communicating with each other in
sophisticated ways,creating what scientists are beginning to call a"wood wide web".
The primary medium for this communication is a vast,underground network of
mycorrhizal fungi(菌根真菌).These fungi form symbiotic(共生的)relationships with plant
roots,exchanging nutrients for sugars.But they do more than just trade;they act as
information superhighways.When a plant is attacked by pests,it releases chemical signals
into its roots.These signals are picked up by the fungi and transmitted to neighboring plants,
which then preemptively(先发制人地)boost their own chemical defenses..This early warning
system allows an entire community of plants to prepare for an imminent threat.
Beyond defense,this network facilitates cooperation.Studies have shown that older,
larger"mother trees"can recognize and favor their own seedlings through the fungal
network,sending them extra nutrients to help them grow in the shaded understory(林下叶层)
This challenges the long-held Darwinian view of plants engaged solely in a merciless
competition for light and resources,suggesting a level of kin (recognition and
高三年级英语试卷(三)第7贞共12
altruism(利他主义)previously thought impossible in the plant kingdom.
The implications are profound.This discovery forces us to reconsider the very definition
of intelligence and communication.Plants lack a central nervous system,yet they exhibit
complex behaviors:sensing,learning,remembering,and problem-solving.They can distinguish
between self and non-self,kin and stranger.Some researchers argue that the fungal network
itself functions as a kind of distributed intelligence for the forest.
Understanding this "plant intelligence"could revolutionize fields from agriculture to
ecology.Instead of viewing crops as isolated individuals,we might learn to foster their natural
communication networks to enhance resilience without pesticides.The silent,green world
around us is humming with conversations we are only just beginning to decode.
46 What is the main function of the "wood wide web"mentioned in the passage?
A.To mainly serve as a system for exchanging nutrients and water.
B.To coordinate collective defense behaviors among plants.
C.To act as a communication network among plants.
D.To provide physical support for seedlings.
According to paragraph 2,how do plants primarily use the fungal network when threatened?
A.By sending warning signals to neighboring plants.
B.By physically moving their roots away from danger.
C.By attracting beneficial insects to kill the pests.
D.By absorbing defensive chemicals from the fungi.
48.The example of"mother trees"helping their seedlings is used to illustrate that plants can
A.engage in merciless competition
B.display parental care and cooperation
C.live independently without external help
D.change their growth pattern according to light
49 What is the significant challenge posed by the discovery of plant communication?
A.It proves Darwin's theory of evolution is wrong.
L It suggests fungi are more intelligent than plants
C.It may redefine concepts like the survival rules of plants.
D.It indicates all plant behaviors are controlled by fungi.
)What is a potential application of this research,as suggested in the last paragraph?
A.Creating new species of plants through genetic engineering.
B.Developing stronger pesticides to protect individual plants
C.Using fungi to replace traditional fertilizers entirely.
D.Improving crop health by enhancing their natural networks.

D
Nearly 2 million years ago,one of our ancestors developed bone cancer in their foot.The
fate of this individual is unknown,but the fossilised remains leave no doubt that cancer has been
a part of our story for a very long time.But these cancer cells weren't the only internal threat our
ancestors faced.Their survival was also threatened by individuals attempting to undermine the
group.At the heart of the story is this question:is human nature selfish or altruistic,competitive
or cooperative?The answer has profound implications for how we aim to structure society.If
we are born altruists,then institutions are unnecessary.But if selfishness dominates,strong
control is essential.
In the language of evolutionary biology,we have a cooperation dilemma:there are
situations where it is in our interest to work with others,and there are situations where it is not.
As a result,visible rivalry (was replaced by what I call "invisible rivalry"-the ability to
hide selfish,competitive intentions while maintaining the appearance of a cooperative nature.
In other words,we evolved to compete in a cooperative world.
This is where the analogy()with cancer arises.Humanity's long history of living
with the disease means we have evolved biological mechanisms to reduce the risk it poses.
Many reactions at the cellular level evolved to help our bodies fight off cancers.It is this strong
immune system that explains why,although we are frequently exposed to viruses,these often
don't lead to illness.Similarly,the threats to our social groups posed by the evolution of
invisible rivalry led us to develop practices and institutions to maximise cooperation.I call this
our cultural immune system.
However,just as cancers find ways to escape from our immune systems,some individuals
use their intelligence to destabilize the group's social norms for their own benefit.To fight the
enemy,we can boost the cultural immune system,much like how we can improve our
biological immune systems through healthy lifestyles and vaccination.
But this isn't going to happen until we first recognise the problem that invisible rivalry
poses.In my view,the best way is through education.We are all part of the cultural immune
system.If we understand our evolutionary heritage,we will be open-eyed to the danger that:
freeloaders pose to society and place our trust more clear-sightedly-much as the body's
defence system learns to recognise the agents associated with cancers to deal with them.
We must work together to stay one step ahead of humanity's opportunistic nature.Withou
beliefs,norms and a proper understanding of human nature,we are at the mercy of our selfis
biological heritage.Evolution has made us this way but we can learn to overcome it.

A.to strengthen the group's unity
B.to wcaken or damage the group
C.to expand the group's influence
D.to reorganize the group's structure
52.What can be inferred about the cultural immune system?
A.It contributes to humanity's competitiveness.
B.Human dishonesty is said to be its byproduct.
C.Internal threats in society cannot escape from it.
D.It can be improved through enhancing cooperation.
53.What can we learn from this passage?
A.The minority's selfishness doesn't mean cancers for society.
B.It is hard to maintain the appearance of a cooperative nature.
C.We need agree on the fact that invisible rivalry brings harm.
D.The stability of society lies in humanity's opportunistic nature.
54.Which would be the best title for this passage?
A.The Cure for Social Ills.
B.The Mercy of Humanity.
C.The Value in Institutions.
D.The Root of Invisible Rivalry.
55.From the passage,it can be inferred that the stable development of human society mainly
relies on
A.the natural disappearance of competitive desires over time
B.our constant efforts to discover and control hidden selfish acts
indiyiduals'willingness to give up personal interests for the group
D.the complete replacement of biological laws by cultural rules

When I was a youngster,my mother would say,"Go outside and play."And I would,with
all the other kids in the neighborhood.We leamed a lot about nature and ourselves playing
outside.For one thing,we quickly lcamed to recognizc poison ivy.
A few years ago I was fortunate to be asked to join the advisory committce of Children and
Nature Network(C&NN).This is a growing organization created by author Richard Louv.His
book.Last Child in the Woods.became a best-seller as people realized we havo a generation of
children so connected to electronics that they are losing their connection to nature.As Louv
writes,"We are fast approaching a generation of children where no child will have played
outdoors.”
Nature is morc than plants and animals we observe cach day.Nature is a sharcd spirit of
being with all things.Through nature we learn that cverything is cyclical,that life begins and
life passes,and that every life is in balance with all other life forms,and cach one helps the other
fulfill its essential purpose.
My neighbors embody the actions and nature philosophy that Louv suggests in his book.
They plant,they play,and they tcach their children that nature has her purpose.They live out the
philosophy that we are part of nature,and when we abuse her,we abuse ourselves.
Spending time outdoors both in loneliness and at play is an important education for
children.The outdoors encourages an inner connection to nature,and if you stay there for a little
while in silence,you will see all the natural connections.You will connect to the chlorophyll
of plants,the flight of insects and birds,the awareness of mammals,and especially the
knowing of the earth herself.
In Shakespeare's As You Like It,the Duke in the Forest of Arden says:"..there are
tongues in trees,books in running streams,lessons in stones,and good in everything.

The old clock tower in the town square had been silent for decades. To most residents, it was merely a(n) 16 relic (遗迹) of a bygone era, an eyesore blocking the modern view of the square. But to Elara, a retired watchmaker, it was a sleeping giant waiting to be 17 .
Since her retirement, Elara had passed the tower daily, her heart 18 at the stillness of the clock hands. One evening, she decided she could no longer be a(n) 19 observer. She approached the town council with a proposal: she would repair the clock 20 , requesting only the cost of materials.
The council was 21 , yet skeptical. The tower was dangerous, and the machinery was complex. However, Elara’s reputation for 22 in her craft eventually won them over. Armed with a toolbox and a stepladder, Elara began the 23 work.
The interior was covered in thick dust and spider webs. The main gear system had 24 , and several critical parts were missing. It wasn’t simply a matter of cleaning; it required 25 and innovation. For weeks, Elara spent her days in the tower. She carefully 26 the rust from the gears, fashioning new parts from scrap metal when originals couldn’t be found. The work was 27 on her aging back, but her spirit remained unbroken.
As news of her project spread, something 28 happened. Local teenagers, once indifferent to the tower, began to stop and watch her work. They brought her water and held the ladder 29 . What started as a one-woman mission transformed into a community 30 . Donations of tools and money began to 31 in from neighbors who were inspired by her dedication.
Finally, on the eve of the town’s centennial celebration, the 32 moment arrived. Elara, with trembling hands, gave the final gear a gentle push. A rhythmic tick-tock echoed through the tower, growing louder until the great bell 33 the hour for the first time in fifty years. The sound resonated (回荡) across the square, drawing cheers and applause from the crowd below.
Looking down at the 34 faces, Elara realized she hadn’t just repaired a machine. She had 35 a community’s sense of time and belonging.

After receiving tenure(终身职位) in 2022 I considered taking a vacation. But I had 15 people in my lab, a partner who is also in academia with his own lab, and two children in elementary school. I felt I could not step away for a year. Then I connected with researchers in Uruguay seeking a collaborator experienced in my area, and I got a short-term Fulbright fellowship to explore the opportunity. I pictured my 3-month stay as an intense period of lab work, data collection and scientific discoveries. The 5-hour time difference would leave me with enough hours to catch up with my lab and family back home.
When I arrived, I was dispirited to learn that the shuttle to the institute ran on a schedule that limited our work hours to 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Mornings started with shared mate and conversations about our weekends or evenings, followed later by an extended lunch break that was sacred. I felt impatient.
Yet my research progressed steadily. Outside of work, another kind of progress was unfolding. I was still working long hours because of my responsibilities as a lab head, graduate program director, and National Institutes of Health study section member, but the built-in breaks-which often included an evening snack-made all the difference. I still got my work done, and the slower rhythm also left space for deeper thinking, both in my experiments and in my life. I was learning the value of working with intention rather than urgency, and of leaving room for the parts of life that can’t be scheduled. A calmness set in. I found myself laughing more, sleeping better, and enjoying the life I have worked hard to build.
Midway through my fellowship my family arrived for an extended visit, and I took 3 weeks off for a once-in-a-lifetime journey; We wandered through busy neighborhoods framed by the Andes, and felt the thunder of waterfalls soaking us in mist. I began to notice small things: my daughter’s fascination with seashells, my son’s growing ease with strangers and his first words of Spanish.
When my fellowship ended 8 months ago, I returned with more than a set of data. I came back with a readjusted sense of how I want to live and work. I block my calendar so that no one can schedule a meeting during my off hour. I’ve built small rituals into my routine-a morning walk, a break away from the screen... These modest changes have reshaped the texture of my days. I find myself more focused in the lab, more patient with my students, and more present with my family. Productivity, I’ye come to see, is not measured only by research papers and grants. It is also sustained by presence, rest, and the relationships that give meaning to the work.
41. The author’s life can be described as_____ before she went to Uruguay.
A. an escape from family duties B. frequently on the run
C. a fat race with her partner D. in pursuit of fellowship
42. How did the author initially feel after learning the work schedule in Uruguay?
A. disappointed and anxious B. duty-bound but calm
C. homesick but fulfilling D. relieved and anticipatory
43. The modest changes mentioned by the author might include_____
A. becoming available when her lab members need to consult her
B. treating conversations about leisure as a religiously sacred ritual
C. replacing a long lunch break with deep thinking over a snack
D. reserving weekends for her family instead of unfinished work
44. What factor initially caused the author’s impatience but eventually contributed to her mindset shift?
A The 5-hour time difference with her home country.
B. Her heavy academic responsibilities and long work hours.
C. The restricted work hours and built-in breaks.
D. The extended visit from her family midway through the fellowship.
45. Which of the following is probably the best title of the passage?
A. To work or not to work
B. Approach to work-life balance
C. An unexpected journey
D. Success isn’t measured by science
C
For centuries, plants have been considered passive organisms, silently enduring their environment. However, recent research is revealing a world of hidden activity Plants, it seems, are not only aware of their surroundings but are also communicating with each other in sophisticated ways, creating what scientists are beginning to call a "wood wide web".
The primary medium for this communication is a vast, underground network of mycorrhizal fungi (菌根真菌). These fungi form symbiotic (共生的) relationships with plant roots, exchanging nutrients for sugars. But they do more than just trade; they act as information superhighways. When a plant is attacked by pests, it releases chemical signals into its roots. These signals are picked up by the fungi and transmitted to neighboring plants, which then preemptively (先发制人地) boost their own chemical defenses. This early warning system allows an entire community of plants to prepare for an imminent threat.
Beyond defense, this network facilitates cooperation. Studies have shown that older, larger "mother trees" can recognize and favor their own seedlings (幼苗) through the fungal network, sending them extra nutrients to help them grow in the shaded understory (林下叶层). This challenges the long-held Darwinian view of plants engaged solely in a merciless competition for light and resources, suggesting a level of kin (亲缘的) recognition and altruism (利他主义) previously thought impossible in the plant kingdom.
The implications are profound. This discovery forces us to reconsider the very definition of intelligence and communication. Plants lack a central nervous system, yet they exhibit complex behaviors: sensing, learning, remembering, and problem-solving. They can distinguish between self and non-self, kin and stranger. Some researchers argue that the fungal network itself functions as a kind of distributed intelligence for the forest.
Understanding this "plant intelligence" could revolutionize fields from agriculture to ecology. Instead of viewing crops as isolated individuals, we might learn to foster their natural communication networks to enhance resilience without pesticides. The silent, green world around us is humming with conversations we are only just beginning to decode.
46 What is the main function of the "wood wide web" mentioned in the passage?
A. To mainly serve as a system for exchanging nutrients and water.
B. To coordinate collective defense behaviors among plants.
C. To act as a communication network among plants.
D. To provide physical support for seedlings.
47. According to paragraph 2, how do plants primarily use the fungal network when threatened?
A. By sending warning signals to neighboring plants.
B. By physically moving their roots away from danger.
C. By attracting beneficial insects to kill the pests.
D. By absorbing defensive chemicals from the fungi.
48. The example of "mother trees" helping their seedlings is used to illustrate that plants can_____.
A. engage in merciless competition
B. display parental care and cooperation
C. live independently without external help
D. change their growth pattern according to light
49. What is the significant challenge posed by the discovery of plant communication?
A. It proves Darwin’s theory of evolution is wrong.
B. It suggests fungi are more intelligent than plants.
C. It may redefine concepts like the survival rules of plants.
D. It indicates all plant behaviors are controlled by fungi.
50. What is a potential application of this research, as suggested in the last paragraph?
A. Creating new species of plants through genetic engineering.
B. Developing stronger pesticides to protect individual plants.
C. Using fungi to replace traditional fertilizers entirely.
D. Improving crop health by enhancing their natural networks.
D
Nearly 2 million years ago, one of our ancestors developed bone cancer in their foot. The fate of this individual is unknown, but the fossilised remains leave no doubt that cancer has been a part of our story for a very long time. But these cancer cells weren’t the only internal threat our ancestors faced. Their survival was also threatened by individuals attempting to undermine the group. At the heart of the story is this question: is human nature selfish or altruistic, competitive or cooperative? The answer has profound implications for how we aim to structure society. If we are born altruists, then institutions are unnecessary. But if selfishness dominates, strong control is essential.
In the language of evolutionary biology, we have a cooperation dilemma: there are situations where it is in our interest to work with others, and there are situations where it is not. As a result, visible rivalry (竞争) was replaced by what I call "invisible rivalry"—the ability to hide selfish, competitive intentions while maintaining the appearance of a cooperative nature. In other words, we evolved to compete in a cooperative world.
This is where the analogy (类比) with cancer arises. Humanity’s long history of living with the disease means we have evolved biological mechanisms to reduce the risk it poses. Many reactions at the cellular level evolved to help our bodies fight off cancers. It is this strong immune system that explains why, although we are frequently exposed to viruses, these often don’t lead to illness. Similarly, the threats to our social groups posed by the evolution of invisible rivalry led us to develop practices and institutions to maximise cooperation. I call this our cultural immune system.
However, just as cancers find ways to escape from our immune systems, some individuals use their intelligence to destabilize the group’s social norms for their own benefit. To fight the enemy, we can boost the cultural immune system, much like how we can improve our biological immune systems through healthy lifestyles and vaccination.
But this isn’t going to happen until we first recognise the problem that invisible rivalry poses. In my view, the best way is through education. We are all part of the cultural immune system. If we understand our evolutionary heritage, we will be open-eyed to the danger that: freeloaders pose to society and place our trust more clear-sightedly-much as the body’s defence system learns to recognise the agents associated with cancers to deal with them.
We must work together to stay one step ahead of humanity’s opportunistic nature. Withov beliefs, norms and a proper understanding of human nature, we are at the mercy of our selfis biological heritage. Evolution has made us this way but we can learn to overcome it.
51.The underlined phrase "to undermine the group" in Paragraph I most probably means_____.
A. to strengthen the group’s unity
B. to weaken or damage the group
C. to expand the group’s influence
D. to reorganize the group’s structure
52. What can be inferred about the cultural immune system?
A. It contributes to humanity’s competitiveness.
B. Human dishonesty is said to be its byproduct.
C. Internal threats in society cannot escape from it.
D. It can be improved through enhancing cooperation.
53. What can we learn from this passage?
A. The minority’s selfishness doesn’t mean cancers for society.
B. It is hard to maintain the appearance of a cooperative nature.
C. We need agree on the fact that invisible rivalry brings harm.
D. The stability of society lies in humanity’s opportunistic nature.
54. Which would be the best title for this passage?
A. The Cure for Social Ills.
B. The Mercy of Humanity.
C. The Value in Institutions.
D. The Root of Invisible Rivalry.
55. From the passage, it can be inferred that the stable development of human society mainly relies on_____.
A. the natural disappearance of competitive desires over time
B. our constant efforts to discover and control hidden selfish acts
C. individuals’ willingness to give up personal interests for the group
D. the complete replacement of biological laws by cultural rules

When I was a youngster, my mother would say, "Go outside and play. " And I would, with all the other kids in the neighborhood. We learned a lot about nature and ourselves playing outside. For one thing, we quickly learned to recognize poison ivy.
A few years ago I was fortunate to be asked to join the advisory committee of Children and Nature Network (C&NN). This is a growing organization created by author Richard Louv. His book, Last Child in the Woods, became a best-seller as people realized we havo a generation of children so connected to electronics that they are losing their connection to nature. As Louv writes, "We are fast approaching a generation of children where no child will have played outdoors."
Nature is more than plants and animals we observe each day. Nature is a shared spirit of being with all things. Through nature we learn that everything is cyclical, that life begins and life passes, and that every life is in balance with all other life forms, and each one helps the other fulfill its essential purpose.
My neighbors embody the actions and nature philosophy that Louv suggests in his book. They plant, they play, and they teach their children that nature has her purpose. They live out the philosophy that we are part of nature, and when we abuse her, we abuse ourselves.
Spending time outdoors both in loneliness and at play is an important education for children. The outdoors encourages an inner connection to nature, and if you stay there for a little while in silence, you will see all the natural connections. You will connect to the chlorophyll (叶绿素) of plants, the flight of insects and birds, the awareness of mammals, and especially the knowing of the earth herself.
In Shakespeare’s As You Like It, the Duke in the Forest of Arden says: ". . . there are tongues in trees, books in running streams, lessons in stones, and good in everything. "
56. How did the author learn about nature and herself when she was young? (no more than 5 words)
57. What problem does Richard Louv point out in his book? (no more than 19 words)
58. How do you understand the underlined sentence "when we abuse her, we abuse ourselves" in Paragraph 4? (no more than 13 words)
59. What benefits can we get from spending time outdoors? (no more than 9 words)
60. What can you learn from the Duke’s words in Shakespeare’s book? (no more than 25
words)

61.One possible version:
Good afternoon,everyone.I'm honored to speak for the proposition side.Our position is
clear:artificial intelligence is a powerful learning assistant.
Firstly,AI creates personalized learning paths.It analyzes our study habits and weaknesses,
then provides tailored exercises and resources,making learning much more efficient.Secondly,
it offers instant feedback.For example,AI can quickly grade our essays,point out grammar
mistakes,and even suggest improvements,allowing us to correct errors and learn in real-time.
We understand the opposition's concerns.They might argue that over-reliance on AI
harms independent thinking.Our response is that AI is a tool,not a replacement.The key is
guidance.Teachers and parents should encourage us to think first and use Al for verification
and deeper exploration.Another worry is that students might use Al to do their homework.To
this,we believe the solution lies in smarter task design.Teachers can assign more open-ended
and creative projects that require personal insight,making simple copy-paste from Al useless.
In conclusion,Al,when used wisely,is undoubtedly a great aid.It personalizes education
and provides immediate support.Let's embrace this technology with a clear mind,using it to
empower,not replace,our own thinking and efforts.
That's all.Thank you.
