Like almost every set of new parents, Bryan and Elizabeth Shaw started taking pictures of their son, Noah, practically from the moment he was born.
When he was about three months old, Elizabeth noticed something odd when she took his picture. The flash on their digital camera created the typical red dot in the center of Noah’s left eye, but the right eye had a white spot at the center, almost as if the flash was being reflected back at the camera by something.
When Elizabeth mentioned the strange phenomenon to their doctor, she shone a light into Noah’s eye, saw the same white reflection, and immediately sent the family to an eye expert.
A white reflection instead of a red one is an obvious sign of eye cancer, and that is exactly what Noah had. He went through months of treatment, but doctors eventually could not save his eye. Retinoblastoma, the scientific name of Noah’s tumor (肿瘤), is treatable if discovered early.
Bryan Shaw couldn’t help but wonder whether there were signs he’d missed. He went back over every baby picture of Noah he could find — thousands of them — and discovered the first white spot in a photo taken when Noah was 12 days old. As time went on, it appeared more frequently. “By the time he was four months old, it was showing up in 25 percent of the pictures taken of him per month,” said Bryan, who was a chemistry professor at Baylor University in Texas.
It was too late for Noah’s eye, but Bryan was determined to put his insights to good use. He created a database that recorded the cancer’s appearance in every photo. He also collected photos and gathered the data from eight other children with retinoblastoma. Equipped with that data, he began to work with coworkers in Baylor’s computer science department to develop a smartphone app that can scan the photos in the user’s camera roll to search for white eye and can be used as a kind of instrument for examining the eyes.
Called White Eye Detector, it is now available free of charge on Google Play and in Apple’s App Store. “I just kept telling myself, I really need to do this,” Bryan said. “This disease is tough to detect. Not only could this software save vision, but it can save lives.”
4. What led to the failure of Noah’s eye treatment?
A. The oddness of the eye disease.
B. The lack of advanced equipment.
C. The ignorance of the doctor.
D. The delayed detection of the disease.
5. How could the app detect the eye disease?
A. It could identify white eye with enough data.
B. It could compare the eyes in different pictures.
C. It could scan the database recorded by Bryan.
D. It could analyse the shape of different eyes.
6. Which of the following words can best describe Bryan?
A. Creative and selfless. B. Generous and brave.
C. Devoted and honest. D. Traditional and determined.
7. What can be inferred from Bryan Shaw’s story?
A. Parents’ awareness is key to early disease detection.
B. A personal tragedy can fuel scientific innovation.
C. Smartphone apps are replacing traditional medical tools.
D. Medical diagnoses should rely more on photographic evidence.
【答案】4. D 5. A 6. A 7. B
【解析】
【导语】文章讲述了Bryan Shaw因儿子Noah患视网膜母细胞瘤失明的经历,通过分析婴儿照片发现早期白色眼球迹象,进而与团队开发免费手机应用,帮助尽早发现这种可治疗的癌症。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“He went through months of treatment, but doctors eventually could not save his eye. Retinoblastoma, the scientific name of Noah’s tumor (肿瘤), is treatable if discovered early. (他接受了数月的治疗,但最终医生还是无法挽救他的眼睛。视网膜母细胞瘤是Noah所患肿瘤的学名,如果发现得早,是可以治疗的。)”可知,疾病发现延迟导致了Noah的眼睛治疗失败。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第六段中“He created a database that recorded the cancer’s appearance in every photo. He also collected photos and gathered the data from eight other children with retinoblastoma. Equipped with that data, he began to work with coworkers in Baylor’s computer science department to develop a smartphone app that can scan the photos in the user’s camera roll to search for white eye and can be used as a kind of instrument for examining the eyes. (他创建了一个数据库,该数据库记录了每张照片中癌症的出现情况。他还收集了其他8名患有视网膜母细胞瘤的孩子的照片,并收集了相关数据。有了这些数据后,他便与贝勒大学计算机科学系的同事们合作,开发了一款智能手机应用程序。该程序能够扫描用户相册中的照片,查找白色眼球的情况,并且可以作为一种检查眼睛的工具使用。)”可知,该应用通过足够的数据识别白色眼球。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段中“Equipped with that data, he began to work with coworkers in Baylor’s computer science department to develop a smartphone app that can scan the photos in the user’s camera roll to search for white eye and can be used as a kind of instrument for examining the eyes. (有了这些数据后,他便与贝勒大学计算机科学系的同事们合作,开发了一款智能手机应用程序。该程序能够扫描用户相册中的照片,查找白色眼球的情况,并且可以作为一种检查眼睛的工具使用。)”和最后一段中“Called White Eye Detector, it is now available free of charge on Google Play and in Apple’s App Store. (这款名为White Eye Detector的产品现已可在谷歌应用商店和苹果应用商店中免费获取。)”可知,Bryan创新地将照片分析与医疗检测结合,并免费分享成果以拯救他人视力与生命,表明他具有创造力和无私精神。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段中“It was too late for Noah’s eye, but Bryan was determined to put his insights to good use. (对Noah的眼睛来说已为时过晚,但Bryan决心将自己的见解善加利用。)”和最后一段中“This disease is tough to detect. Not only could this software save vision, but it can save lives. (这种疾病很难被发现。这款软件不仅能保护视力,还能拯救生命。)”可知,Bryan因儿子患病经历而激发行动,将痛苦转化为开发检测工具的动力,成功开发出一款免费手机应用,帮助及时发现这种可治疗的癌症,这表明“个人悲剧可以推动科学创新”。
C
Europeans should try to stay indoors if ash from Iceland’s volcano starts settling, the World Health Organization (WHO) warned on Friday when small amounts fell in Iceland, Scotland and Norway.
WHO spokesman Daniel Epstein said the microscopic ash is potentially dangerous for people when it starts to reach the Earth because breathed-in particles (微粒) can enter the lungs and cause respiratory (呼吸的) problems. And he also said Europeans who go outside might want to consider wearing a mask.
Other experts, however, weren’t convinced the volcanic ash would have a major effect on people’s health and said WHO’s warnings were “hysterical”. They said volcanic ash was much less dangerous than cigarette smoke or pollution. Volcanic ash is mainly made up of particles of volcanic rock, which is light grey to black and can be as fine as talcum powder. During a volcanic eruption, the ash can be breathed deep into the lungs and cause cough or other discomfort even in healthy people. But once it falls from a greater distance — like from the cloud currently floating above Europe — its health effects are often minimal, experts say.
“Not all particles are created equal,” said Ken Donaldson, a professor of respiratory toxicology at the University of Edinburgh, “From a broader perspective, volcanic ash is not all that harmful.” And he said most Europeans’ exposure to volcanic ash would be negligible and that only those in the near districts of the Icelandic volcano would likely be at risk.
Dr. Stephen Spiro, a professor of respiratory medicine and deputy chair of the British Lung Foundation, said the further the particles travel, the less dangerous they will be. “The cloud has already passed over northern Scotland and we haven’t heard of any ill effects there,” he said. Spiro said to wear masks or stay indoors to avoid volcanic ash was “over the top” and “a bit hysterical”.
8. What can you learn from paragraph 3?
A. The volcanic ash had no impact on Europeans.
B. Other experts highly approved of WHO’s warnings.
C. The volcanic ash posed more risks than cigarette smoke.
D. The actual danger from the distant ash cloud was limited.
9. According to Ken Donaldson, who are most likely to be at risk due to the volcanic ash?
A. Europeans living in big cities.
B. People who often smoke cigarettes.
C. Those staying outdoors for a long time.
D. People in the near districts of the Icelandic volcano.
10. What does the underlined word “hysterical” in the last paragraph most probably mean?
A. Amazing. B. Practical. C. Valuable. D. Overstated.
11. What is the author’s main purpose in writing this text?
A. To criticize the WHO for spreading unnecessary panic.
B. To persuade the public to follow the WHO’s safety advice.
C. To present different expert views of a health risk.
D. To explain the chemical properties of volcanic ash.
【答案】8. D 9. D 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【导语】文章介绍了世界卫生组织建议民众待在室内或戴口罩以避免冰岛火山灰,但一些专家持反对观点,认为远距离火山灰危害有限,世界卫生组织的警告可能是过度反应。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“But once it falls from a greater distance — like from the cloud currently floating above Europe — its health effects are often minimal, experts say. (但专家表示,如果它是从更远的地方飘落下来——比如从目前漂浮在欧洲上空的云层中飘落——那么其对健康的危害通常就会很小。)”可知,从远处飘来的火山灰云的实际危害是有限的。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“And he said most Europeans’ exposure to volcanic ash would be negligible and that only those in the near districts of the Icelandic volcano would likely be at risk. (他说,大多数欧洲人接触的火山灰都将微乎其微,而只有那些身处冰岛火山附近地区的人才可能面临危险。)”可知,Ken Donaldson认为冰岛火山附近地区的人最可能因火山灰面临风险。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线词前一句中Spiro所说的话“The cloud has already passed over northern Scotland and we haven’t heard of any ill effects there (这片云已经掠过苏格兰北部地区,而且我们尚未收到任何有关那里出现不良影响的消息)”可知,Spiro不认可世卫组织警告的火山灰对人体的健康风险,因此“戴口罩或待在室内以避免火山灰”对他而言是“过度反应”,画线词意思应该是“过度反应”或“夸大”,与Overstated“夸大,夸张”意思接近。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是第一段“Europeans should try to stay indoors if ash from Iceland’s volcano starts settling, the World Health Organization (WHO) warned on Friday when small amounts fell in Iceland, Scotland and Norway. (上周五,当冰岛、苏格兰和挪威有少量火山灰降落时,世界卫生组织(WHO)警告称,如果冰岛火山的火山灰开始沉降,欧洲人应该尽量呆在室内。)”和第三段中“Other experts, however, weren’t convinced the volcanic ash would have a major effect on people’s health (然而,其他专家并不认为火山灰会对人们的健康产生重大影响)”可知,文章围绕冰岛火山灰对欧洲居民的健康风险展开,先介绍世界卫生组织建议民众待在室内或戴口罩,随后引用多位专家观点,指出远距离飘散的火山灰危害有限,批评世界卫生组织的警告可能是过度反应。由此可知,作者的主要目的是呈现关于健康风险的不同专家观点。
D
AI has advanced significantly over the years. However, its current models largely ignore human psychology, such as emotional intelligence.
“The main focus of our work was how we could bring the emotional part of intelligence to AI,” says Saptarshi Das, associate professor at Penn State. “Human behavior is easy to observe but difficult to measure and that makes it difficult to replicate (复制) in a robot and make it emotionally intelligent. There is no real way right now to do that.”
Eating habits serve as a prime example of this emotional intelligence. While hunger is the physiological drive to eat, our choices of what to eat are influenced by our sense of taste. As Das explains, even when one is not hungry, the psychological desire can drive him or her to consume a sweet treat, rather than a piece of meat.
To grasp the complexities of taste, Penn State researchers looked to the human tongue, which converts (转换) chemical data into electrical signals sent to the brain’s gustatory cortex (味觉皮层). In this brain region, complex neural networks shape our sense of taste. To imitate this, the team created an electronic “tongue”.
This technology can be adapted to recognize all primary taste characteristics, from sweet to salty. Looking ahead, the researchers see numerous applications, including AI-designed diets based on emotional preferences or tailored restaurant meal suggestions.
The team’s immediate goal is to expand the electronic tongue’s capacity. “We are trying to imitate the 10,000 or so taste receptors (味蕾) we have on our tongue that are each slightly different compared to the others, which enables us to distinguish between small differences in tastes,” says Das. “The example I think of is people who train their tongue and become a wine taster. Perhaps in the future, we can have an AI system that you can train to be an even better wine taster.”
Beyond taste, the team wants to broaden this concept to other senses, leading to a more comprehensive and emotionally intelligent AI system.
12. What can be learned from the first two paragraphs?
A. It is hard to make robots emotionally intelligent.
B. It is necessary to make robots emotionally intelligent.
C. Emotional intelligence is complex and difficult to observe.
D. Few researchers pay attention to emotional intelligence of AI.
13. What might this electronic tongue be applied to in the future?
A. Judging the quality of people’s diets.
B. Designing a healthier diet plan for people.
C. Helping restaurants serve customers better.
D. Correcting people’s imbalanced eating preferences.
14. What is the team’s plan according to the last two paragraphs?
A. Bringing more human senses into the AI system.
B. Making the electronic tongue available for everyone.
C. Improving people’s taste sensitivity with the electronic tongue.
D. Attracting the attention of other researchers to AI’s innovation.
15. What is the text mainly about?
A. The future development trend of AI.
B. The advantage of the “electronic tongue”.
C. The progress in bringing emotional intelligence into AI.
D. The big role of AI in developing emotional intelligence.
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. A 15. C

【导语】文章指出人工智能当前缺乏情感智能的现状,以味觉为例,介绍了宾州州立大学研究团队通过开发电子舌头技术模拟人类味觉感知,并计划将这一概念扩展至其他感官。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“AI has advanced significantly over the years. However, its current models largely ignore human psychology, such as emotional intelligence. (近年来,人工智能取得了显著的进步。然而,目前的人工智能模型在很大程度上忽略了人类的心理特征,比如情感智能。)”和第二段中“Human behavior is easy to observe but difficult to measure and that makes it difficult to replicate (复制) in a robot and make it emotionally intelligent. There is no real way right now to do that. (人类行为易于观察但难以测量,这使得在机器人中复制并使其具备情感智能变得困难。目前尚无真正的方法实现这一点。)”可知,当前人工智能模型大多忽视人类的心理特征,且人类行为难以测量和复制,表明让机器人具备情感智能是很困难的。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中“Looking ahead, the researchers see numerous applications, including AI-designed diets based on emotional preferences or tailored restaurant meal suggestions. (展望未来,研究者预见了许多应用,包括基于情感偏好设计人工智能饮食计划,或为餐厅提供定制化的餐点建议。)”可知,电子舌头未来可应用于帮助餐厅更好地服务顾客。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Beyond taste, the team wants to broaden this concept to other senses, leading to a more comprehensive and emotionally intelligent AI system. (除了味觉,团队希望将这一概念扩展到其他感官,从而构建更全面、更具情感智能的人工智能系统。)”可知,该团队未来会将更多人类感官融入人工智能系统。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第二段中“The main focus of our work was how we could bring the emotional part of intelligence to AI (我们工作的重点是如何将情感智能部分引入人工智能。)”可知,文章首先指出人工智能缺乏情感智能,再以味觉为例说明情感智能的复杂性,随后介绍模拟味觉的电子舌头技术,最后展望应用及未来扩展到其他感官。因此,文章主要是介绍在人工智能中融入情感智能方面的进展。

Have you ever walked past a parked car on a hot day and felt the heat radiating off it? It’s not your imagination. In urban environments, heat is absorbed and released by the sidewalks, buildings and other objects. Now, a new study reveals that an unexpected factor in urban warming is heat radiating from parked cars.
Márcia Matias of the University of Lisbon and her colleagues measured the air temperature around two cars—one black and one white—parked outside for more than 5 hours during daylight. Their measurements showed the black car raised the local air temperature by as much as 3.8°C compared to the nearby asphalt (沥青路面) under a clear and sunny summer sky with temperatures of 36°C. Meanwhile, the white car had much smaller impacts on the surrounding air temperature.
The researchers explain that white vehicle paint reflects between 75% and 85% of incoming sunlight, whereas black vehicle paint absorbs most of the incoming sunlight, reflecting just only 5% to 10%. A car’s thin steel or aluminum skin can also heat up quickly under strong sunlight, unlike even very dark asphalt that is thicker and warms more slowly. “Now picture thousands of cars parked across a city, each one acting like a little heat source or a heat shield,” says Matias. “Their color can actually shift how hot the streets feel.”
The collective impact of hundreds of thousands or millions of cars in cities could significantly influence the urban heat island effect. The researchers calculated that repainting parked cars from dark to lighter colors could create cooler surfaces and lower near-surface air temperatures on sunny, low-wind days. Using the city of Lisbon as an example, the change could effectively increase the street-level reflectance (反射比) of incoming sunlight from just 20% to nearly 40% in areas where parked cars cover more than 10% of the road. The researchers also note that using light-colored vehicles to reduce urban heat is a particularly novel strategy, and fleets of municipal vehicles, buses, taxis and delivery trucks are obvious candidates for getting light-colored makeovers.
16. What did the researchers find about the black car according to paragraph 2?
A. It heated up the surface of the asphalt. B. It cooled down faster than the white car.
C. It reflected more heat than the white car. D. It raised the surrounding air temperature.
17. What does the author intend to tell us in paragraph 3?
A. New methods used in the experiment. B. Reasons behind the research findings.
C. The great significance of the research. D. The limitation of the experiment’s results.
18. What do the researchers suggest?
A. Increasing the thickness of car paint. B. Establishing strict parking regulations.
C. Painting specific vehicles in light colors. D. Promoting the use of public transportation.
19. Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Why Are Our Cities Getting Hotter? B. How Can We Make Our Cities cooler?
C. What Is the Best Car Color for Summer? D. How Do Parked Cars Affect Urban Heat?
【答案】16. D 17. B 18. C 19. D
【解析】

【解析】
【导语】文章介绍了建立健康自尊的重要性,并提出了通过列举自身优点、停止讨好他人、走出舒适区以及避免与他人比较等具体方法来提升自我价值感。
【20题详解】
上文“Building self-esteem is significant because it directly impacts how you view and care for yourself, influencing your overall well-being. High self-esteem often reflects healthy self-care practices.(培养自尊非常重要,因为它会直接影响你如何看待自己以及如何关爱自己,从而影响你的整体健康状况。拥有高度的自尊往往意味着你有良好的自我照顾习惯)”肯定高自尊的价值,下文“To that end, we can observe the following golden rules to achieve healthy self-esteem.(为此,我们可以遵循以下几条黄金法则来培养健康的自尊)”引出建立健康自尊的法则,此处需要过渡句,解释“为什么需要这些法则”。因此D项“However, it’s no easy task to build healthy self-esteem.(然而,建立健康的自尊并非易事)”符合语境,提出建立健康自尊的难处,与上文形成转折,引出法则的必要性。
【21题详解】
上文“Yet recognizing your skills or things you like about yourself can improve your self-talk. You can try keeping a journal of what you enjoyed or admired.(然而,认识到自己的技能或自身所具有的优点能够改善你的自我对话。你可以尝试记录下自己所喜欢或钦佩的事情)”建议记录优点来改善自我对话,此处应是对这种方法效果的总结。因此E项“It works wonders for improving the way you see yourself.(这对改善你看待自己的方式有奇效)”符合语境,肯定其效果,承接上文,其中的It指代上文的做法。
【22题详解】
上文“Stop being a people pleaser.(别再做那种讨好他人的事了)”提出观点“停止讨好他人”,下文“They often put helping others before their own mental health.(他们往往将帮助他人置于自身的心理健康之上)”描述特定人群的一大特征,此处需指出什么是“people pleaser”。因此F项“People with poor self-esteem feel dutiful to say yes to requests. (低自尊的人觉得有义务对请求说“是”)”符合语境,点明“讨好他人者”的心理动机,承上启下。
【23题详解】
下文“Those with low self-esteem tend to avoid challenges and new opportunities. This can be due to fears or self-doubt. You should face difficulties bravely and try to pull through rough moments. Thus, you will gain increasing confidence in life. Of course, breaking your comfort shell doesn’t mean throwing yourself into highly dangerous situations.(那些自尊心较低的人往往会回避挑战和新的机遇。这可能是由于恐惧或自我怀疑所致。你应该勇敢地面对困难,并努力度过艰难时刻。这样一来,你就会在生活中逐渐获得更多的自信。当然,打破舒适圈并不意味着要让自己陷入极其危险的境地)”在鼓励勇敢尝试、面对挑战,此处是段首主题句,应总的建议打破舒适圈。因此A项“Step out of your comfort zone. (走出你的舒适区)”符合语境,概括下文内容。
【24题详解】
上文“It’s not easy to stop comparing yourself to others. (要停止与他人进行比较并非易事)”指出停止与他人比较的难处,下文“Remind yourself that people only share the best parts of their life online. Don’t let likes on a photo determine your self-worth. (请记住,人们在网上的分享内容往往都是他们生活中最美好的部分)”建议记住人们在网上展示的实质,此处需要解决方案,说明“如何做到”停止比较,且需结合“社交媒体”。因此C项“Staying away from social media can help this effort. (远离社交媒体有助于这项努力)”符合语境,给出具体可行的建议,承上启下,其中的this effort指代“停止与他人比较”。

【解析】
【导语】文章介绍了位于印度尼西亚Menteng的Hidden Garden House,描述了其将建筑与自然深度融合的创新设计理念。
【40题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:它是由一个单一的大型屋顶连接起来的一系列建筑,该屋顶设计有多个窗户。空处引导非限制性定语从句,对先行词a single large roof作补充说明,先行词指物,关系词在从句中作主语,应用关系代词which作引导词。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:屋顶被划分成不同的区域和留白空间,创造出一个对角线环形结构,赋予了该设计一种真正独特的风格。空格处的句子主干成分完整,空处表示随着谓语行为自然发生的结果,作结果状语,应用create“创造”的现在分词形式。
【42题详解】
考查副词。句意:屋顶被划分成不同的区域和留白空间,创造出一个对角线循环,赋予了该设计一种真正独特的风格。空处修饰形容词unique,应用副词truly,意为“真正地”,作状语。
【43题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:为了将自然迎入房屋,一楼是开放式的。句子已有谓语,空处是非谓语,“将自然迎入房屋”是谓语行为的目的,因此用welcome“迎接”的不定式形式,作目的状语,句首单词的首字母需大写。
【44题详解】
考查冠词。句意:没有隔墙,只有连接整个房屋和外部自然世界的开放空间。结合“the entire house”可知,此处特指房屋外部那个具体的自然界,应用定冠词the。
【45题详解】
考查介词。句意:该设计尊崇热带环境,并作为一个绿色绿洲,四周环绕着城市的景色。结合“a green oasis (绿洲)”可知,固定短语serve as符合题意,意为“作为,充当”。
【46题详解】

【47题详解】
考查动词时态、语态和主谓一致。句意:屋顶上的太阳能电池板提供能源,智能家居功能遍布其中。空处作句子的谓语,结合前面的“provide”可知,时态应保持一致,用一般现在时,integrate“整合”和主语smart house features之间是被动关系,应用被动语态,且主语是复数,be动词应用are。
【48题详解】
考查连词。句意:但城市四周的景色证明,这实际上是城市中的一个绿洲。前句“这个现代住宅看起来有点像迷失在森林里”和后句“这实际上是城市中的一个绿洲”之间构成转折,因此用意为“但是”的并列连词but或yet,句首单词的首字母需大写。
【49题详解】
考查形容词。句意:这一创新、美丽的设计,有望在未来激发更多明亮的绿色空间。空处与形容词beautiful并列,共同修饰名词design,形容词innovative符合题意,意为“创新的”。
第三节 单句填空(共 8小题;每小题 1分,满分 8分)
在空白处填入1个单词或用括号内所给单词的适当形式填空,使句子语法正确且逻辑通顺。
50. Elon Musk, for ________ time is very precious, will continue to push the boundaries of space exploration. (用适当的词填空)
【答案】whom
【解析】
【详解】句意:对埃隆·马斯克来说,时间是非常宝贵的,他将继续推动太空探索的边界。空处和空前的for搭配,形成“介词+关系代词”的结构,引导非限制性定语从句,对先行词Elon Musk作补充说明,先行词指人,作介词for的宾语,因此应用关系代词whom。
51. With eyes no longer ________(fix) on our phones, we had a chance to really enjoy each other’s company. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】fixed
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:眼睛不再盯着手机,我们有机会真正享受彼此的陪伴。逗号前面是with复合结构,with+宾语+宾语补足语,宾语eyes和动词短语fix on(集中(目光,注意力,思想等)于)为被动关系,应用fix的过去分词形式,故填fixed。
52. If ________ (leave) in the sun for too long, the ice cream will melt completely. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】left
【解析】
【详解】句意:如果放在阳光下太久,冰淇淋就会完全融化。此处用了if引导条件状语从句,且从句的主语和主句的主语一致,从句中含有be动词,因此对主语和be动词同时进行了省略,leave“把……留在某处”和被省略的主语the ice cream之间是被动关系,因此应用leave的过去分词形式。
53. The ancient site ________ (unearth) now may hold priceless historical information about a lost civilization. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】being unearthed
【解析】
【详解】句意:目前正在发掘的这个古老遗址或许蕴含着关于一个失落文明的极其珍贵的历史信息。空格处应该用非谓语动词作定语,修饰空格前的名词短语the ancient site,the ancient site与动词unearth之间是被动关系,结合时间状语now可知,此处表示正在进行的动作,所以应该用being unearthed作定语。
54. They went to the store to buy the new phone, only _______ (inform) that it was sold out. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】to be informed
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:他们去商店买新手机,结果却被告知已售罄。此处需要使用非谓语动词不定式,构成固定搭配only to do,表示出乎意料或令人失望的结果。主语They与inform之间是被动关系,因此需要使用被动形式。故填to be informed。
55. This is one of the few software companies that ________ (develop) more than ten popular web applications since 2025. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】have developed
【解析】
【详解】句意:这是自2025年以来为数不多的几家开发了超过十款热门网络应用程序的软件公司之一。空处作从句的谓语,结合“since 2025”可知,时态应用现在完成时,表示过去的动作持续到现在,that引导的限制性定语从句的先行词是the few software companies,为复数,在从句中作主语,助动词应用have。
56. ________ you work at such a late hour? You are killing me with that noise. (用适当的词填空)
【答案】Must
【解析】
【详解】句意:你非得这么晚还在工作吗?你的噪音快把我逼疯了!情态动词 must 用于疑问句时,常带有不满、抱怨、恼火的情绪,意为“偏偏、非得、非要”,用来指责对方做出令人不快的行为。
57. ________ you warm up properly before running, you might injure your muscles or joints. (用适当的词填空)
【答案】Unless
【解析】
【详解】句意:除非你在跑步前做好充分的热身运动,否则可能会损伤肌肉或关节。逗号前后均为完整的句子,且“在跑步前做好充分的热身运动”是“损伤肌肉或关节”成立的否定条件,因此用unless“除非”引导条件状语从句,句首单词的首字母需大写。
第四节 完成句子(共7小题;每小题1分,满分7分)
根据所给汉语,在空白处填上合适的单词;每空一词,答错任意一空,本题不得分。

Like almost every set of new parents, Bryan and Elizabeth Shaw started taking pictures of their son, Noah, practically from the moment he was born.
When he was about three months old, Elizabeth noticed something odd when she took his picture. The flash on their digital camera created the typical red dot in the center of Noah’s left eye, but the right eye had a white spot at the center, almost as if the flash was being reflected back at the camera by something.
When Elizabeth mentioned the strange phenomenon to their doctor, she shone a light into Noah’s eye, saw the same white reflection, and immediately sent the family to an eye expert.
A white reflection instead of a red one is an obvious sign of eye cancer, and that is exactly what Noah had. He went through months of treatment, but doctors eventually could not save his eye. Retinoblastoma, the scientific name of Noah’s tumor (肿瘤), is treatable if discovered early.
Bryan Shaw couldn’t help but wonder whether there were signs he’d missed. He went back over every baby picture of Noah he could find — thousands of them — and discovered the first white spot in a photo taken when Noah was 12 days old. As time went on, it appeared more frequently. “By the time he was four months old, it was showing up in 25 percent of the pictures taken of him per month,” said Bryan, who was a chemistry professor at Baylor University in Texas.
It was too late for Noah’s eye, but Bryan was determined to put his insights to good use. He created a database that recorded the cancer’s appearance in every photo. He also collected photos and gathered the data from eight other children with retinoblastoma. Equipped with that data, he began to work with coworkers in Baylor’s computer science department to develop a smartphone app that can scan the photos in the user’s camera roll to search for white eye and can be used as a kind of instrument for examining the eyes.
Called White Eye Detector, it is now available free of charge on Google Play and in Apple’s App Store. “I just kept telling myself, I really need to do this,” Bryan said. “This disease is tough to detect. Not only could this software save vision, but it can save lives.”
4. What led to the failure of Noah’s eye treatment?
A. The oddness of the eye disease.
B. The lack of advanced equipment.
C. The ignorance of the doctor.
D. The delayed detection of the disease.
5. How could the app detect the eye disease?
A. It could identify white eye with enough data.
B. It could compare the eyes in different pictures.
C. It could scan the database recorded by Bryan.
D. It could analyse the shape of different eyes.
6. Which of the following words can best describe Bryan?
A. Creative and selfless. B. Generous and brave.
C. Devoted and honest. D. Traditional and determined.
7. What can be inferred from Bryan Shaw’s story?
A. Parents’ awareness is key to early disease detection.
B. A personal tragedy can fuel scientific innovation.
C. Smartphone apps are replacing traditional medical tools.
D. Medical diagnoses should rely more on photographic evidence.
C
Europeans should try to stay indoors if ash from Iceland’s volcano starts settling, the World Health Organization (WHO) warned on Friday when small amounts fell in Iceland, Scotland and Norway.
WHO spokesman Daniel Epstein said the microscopic ash is potentially dangerous for people when it starts to reach the Earth because breathed-in particles (微粒) can enter the lungs and cause respiratory (呼吸的) problems. And he also said Europeans who go outside might want to consider wearing a mask.
Other experts, however, weren’t convinced the volcanic ash would have a major effect on people’s health and said WHO’s warnings were “hysterical”. They said volcanic ash was much less dangerous than cigarette smoke or pollution. Volcanic ash is mainly made up of particles of volcanic rock, which is light grey to black and can be as fine as talcum powder. During a volcanic eruption, the ash can be breathed deep into the lungs and cause cough or other discomfort even in healthy people. But once it falls from a greater distance — like from the cloud currently floating above Europe — its health effects are often minimal, experts say.
“Not all particles are created equal,” said Ken Donaldson, a professor of respiratory toxicology at the University of Edinburgh, “From a broader perspective, volcanic ash is not all that harmful.” And he said most Europeans’ exposure to volcanic ash would be negligible and that only those in the near districts of the Icelandic volcano would likely be at risk.
Dr. Stephen Spiro, a professor of respiratory medicine and deputy chair of the British Lung Foundation, said the further the particles travel, the less dangerous they will be. “The cloud has already passed over northern Scotland and we haven’t heard of any ill effects there,” he said. Spiro said to wear masks or stay indoors to avoid volcanic ash was “over the top” and “a bit hysterical”.
8. What can you learn from paragraph 3?
A. The volcanic ash had no impact on Europeans.
B. Other experts highly approved of WHO’s warnings.
C. The volcanic ash posed more risks than cigarette smoke.
D. The actual danger from the distant ash cloud was limited.
9. According to Ken Donaldson, who are most likely to be at risk due to the volcanic ash?
A. Europeans living in big cities.
B. People who often smoke cigarettes.
C. Those staying outdoors for a long time.
D. People in the near districts of the Icelandic volcano.
10. What does the underlined word “hysterical” in the last paragraph most probably mean?
A. Amazing. B. Practical. C. Valuable. D. Overstated.
11. What is the author’s main purpose in writing this text?
A. To criticize the WHO for spreading unnecessary panic.
B. To persuade the public to follow the WHO’s safety advice.
C. To present different expert views of a health risk.
D. To explain the chemical properties of volcanic ash.
D
AI has advanced significantly over the years. However, its current models largely ignore human psychology, such as emotional intelligence.
“The main focus of our work was how we could bring the emotional part of intelligence to AI,” says Saptarshi Das, associate professor at Penn State. “Human behavior is easy to observe but difficult to measure and that makes it difficult to replicate (复制) in a robot and make it emotionally intelligent. There is no real way right now to do that.”
Eating habits serve as a prime example of this emotional intelligence. While hunger is the physiological drive to eat, our choices of what to eat are influenced by our sense of taste. As Das explains, even when one is not hungry, the psychological desire can drive him or her to consume a sweet treat, rather than a piece of meat.
To grasp the complexities of taste, Penn State researchers looked to the human tongue, which converts (转换) chemical data into electrical signals sent to the brain’s gustatory cortex (味觉皮层). In this brain region, complex neural networks shape our sense of taste. To imitate this, the team created an electronic “tongue”.
This technology can be adapted to recognize all primary taste characteristics, from sweet to salty. Looking ahead, the researchers see numerous applications, including AI-designed diets based on emotional preferences or tailored restaurant meal suggestions.
The team’s immediate goal is to expand the electronic tongue’s capacity. “We are trying to imitate the 10,000 or so taste receptors (味蕾) we have on our tongue that are each slightly different compared to the others, which enables us to distinguish between small differences in tastes,” says Das. “The example I think of is people who train their tongue and become a wine taster. Perhaps in the future, we can have an AI system that you can train to be an even better wine taster.”
Beyond taste, the team wants to broaden this concept to other senses, leading to a more comprehensive and emotionally intelligent AI system.
12. What can be learned from the first two paragraphs?
A. It is hard to make robots emotionally intelligent.
B. It is necessary to make robots emotionally intelligent.
C. Emotional intelligence is complex and difficult to observe.
D. Few researchers pay attention to emotional intelligence of AI.
13. What might this electronic tongue be applied to in the future?
A. Judging the quality of people’s diets.
B. Designing a healthier diet plan for people.
C. Helping restaurants serve customers better.
D. Correcting people’s imbalanced eating preferences.
14. What is the team’s plan according to the last two paragraphs?
A. Bringing more human senses into the AI system.
B. Making the electronic tongue available for everyone.
C. Improving people’s taste sensitivity with the electronic tongue.
D. Attracting the attention of other researchers to AI’s innovation.
15. What is the text mainly about?
A. The future development trend of AI.
B. The advantage of the “electronic tongue”.
C. The progress in bringing emotional intelligence into AI.
D. The big role of AI in developing emotional intelligence.

Have you ever walked past a parked car on a hot day and felt the heat radiating off it? It’s not your imagination. In urban environments, heat is absorbed and released by the sidewalks, buildings and other objects. Now, a new study reveals that an unexpected factor in urban warming is heat radiating from parked cars.
Márcia Matias of the University of Lisbon and her colleagues measured the air temperature around two cars—one black and one white—parked outside for more than 5 hours during daylight. Their measurements showed the black car raised the local air temperature by as much as 3.8°C compared to the nearby asphalt (沥青路面) under a clear and sunny summer sky with temperatures of 36°C. Meanwhile, the white car had much smaller impacts on the surrounding air temperature.
The researchers explain that white vehicle paint reflects between 75% and 85% of incoming sunlight, whereas black vehicle paint absorbs most of the incoming sunlight, reflecting just only 5% to 10%. A car’s thin steel or aluminum skin can also heat up quickly under strong sunlight, unlike even very dark asphalt that is thicker and warms more slowly. “Now picture thousands of cars parked across a city, each one acting like a little heat source or a heat shield,” says Matias. “Their color can actually shift how hot the streets feel.”
The collective impact of hundreds of thousands or millions of cars in cities could significantly influence the urban heat island effect. The researchers calculated that repainting parked cars from dark to lighter colors could create cooler surfaces and lower near-surface air temperatures on sunny, low-wind days. Using the city of Lisbon as an example, the change could effectively increase the street-level reflectance (反射比) of incoming sunlight from just 20% to nearly 40% in areas where parked cars cover more than 10% of the road. The researchers also note that using light-colored vehicles to reduce urban heat is a particularly novel strategy, and fleets of municipal vehicles, buses, taxis and delivery trucks are obvious candidates for getting light-colored makeovers.
16. What did the researchers find about the black car according to paragraph 2?
A. It heated up the surface of the asphalt. B. It cooled down faster than the white car.
C. It reflected more heat than the white car. D. It raised the surrounding air temperature.
17. What does the author intend to tell us in paragraph 3?
A. New methods used in the experiment. B. Reasons behind the research findings.
C. The great significance of the research. D. The limitation of the experiment’s results.
18. What do the researchers suggest?
A. Increasing the thickness of car paint. B. Establishing strict parking regulations.
C. Painting specific vehicles in light colors. D. Promoting the use of public transportation.
19. Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Why Are Our Cities Getting Hotter? B. How Can We Make Our Cities cooler?
C. What Is the Best Car Color for Summer? D. How Do Parked Cars Affect Urban Heat?
