El Calafate, Argentina Every day, groups of buses depart El Calafate for the Perito Moreno glacier — an accessible icy sight, and one of the world’s few advancing glaciers. A series of boardwalks lead to various viewpoints that allow you to be amazed at this shining, blue-white wall of ice. Futaleufú, Chile Imagine it: you and the rest of the rafting crew are waiting for the signal from the rafting guide to row like your life depends on it. Huge river waves are hitting the boat and white-water spray showers you head to foot. You wipe the water out of your eyes and enjoy the sunshine when people in the Northern Hemisphere suffer from the freezing cold, and there are numerous guesthouses where you can base yourself. Cueva de las Manos, Argentina In a hidden canyon, reachable by tour or your own wheels, a boardwalk leads you past a vast overhanging rock face, decorated with ancient rock art. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is one of the most famous rock art sites in South America, with over 800 outlines of human hands and feet of wildlife. Punta Tombo, Argentina You smell the penguins before you see them. The presence of nearly a million Magellanic penguins — some hiding underground, some going fishing in the sea, others standing around — is a powerful effect on your senses. The long, narrow peninsula also attracts gulls, flightless steamer ducks, and black oystercatchers. 1. What can you do in El Calafate, Argentina? A. Carve icy walls. B. Admire glaciers. C. Enjoy bus tours. D. Decorate boardwalks. 2. In which month can you take on the white-water rafting trips? A. January. B. May. C. August. D. October. 3. Where should you go if you are interested in observing live wildlife? A. Futaleufú, Chile B. El Calafate, Argentina C. Punta Tombo, Argentina D. Cueva de las Manos, Argentina 【答案】1. B 2. A 3. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了位于南半球的巴塔哥尼亚地区及其周边几个适合户外探险的地点。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据El Calafate, Argentina部分中“A series of boardwalks lead to various viewpoints that allow you to be amazed at this shining, blue-white wall of ice. ( 一系列的木板路通向不同的视角，让你惊叹于这闪闪发光的蓝白色冰墙。)”可知，你可以在阿根廷的埃尔卡拉法特通过一系列的木板路到达不同的观赏点，欣赏这闪闪发光的蓝白色冰墙。故选B。 【2题详解】 推理判断题。根据Futaleufú, Chile部分中“Huge river waves are hitting the boat and white-water spray showers you head to foot. You wipe the water out of your eyes and enjoy the sunshine when people in the Northern Hemisphere suffer from the freezing cold, and there are numerous guesthouses where you can base yourself. (巨大的河浪打在船上，白色的水花从你的头喷到脚。当北半球的人们在寒冷中受苦时，你可以擦去眼睛里的水，享受阳光，还有无数的宾馆可以让你歇脚。)”可知，当北半球的人们饱受严寒之苦时，你可以在Futaleufú享受阳光，进行漂流。由此可以推断，“白水漂流之旅”应该在南半球的夏季进行，即12月到2月之间。故选A。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Punta Tombo, Argentina部分中“The presence of nearly a million Magellanic penguins — some hiding underground, some going fishing in the sea, others standing around — is a powerful effect on your senses. The long, narrow peninsula also attracts gulls, flightless steamer ducks, and black oystercatchers. ( 近百万只麦哲伦企鹅的存在——有的躲藏在地底下，有的出海捕鱼，还有的四处闲逛——会给你的感官带来强烈的震撼。这个狭长半岛还吸引着海鸥、无法飞翔的船鸭和黑蛎鹬。)”可知，如果你对观察野生生物感兴趣，你应该去Punta Tombo。故选C。 B In Mexico City’s Polanco neighborhood, Catia Lattouf has turned her apartment into a clinic for sick, injured, or baby hummingbirds. Over the past decade, though lacking formal training, she has nursed hundreds of these tiny birds back to health. Lattouf, a 73-year-old French literature enthusiast, has become a go-to resource for bird lovers across Mexico and Latin America. The shelter converted from apartment to clinic supports more formal institutions like the Iztacala campus of Mexico’s National Autonomous University, which sometimes refers cases to her due to limited resources. Lattouf began caring for hummingbirds a year after surviving colon cancer in 2011. It started with one hummingbird that had an eye injury. A veterinarian (兽医) friend encouraged her to try to help it. She named it Gucci after the brand of the glasses case she kept it in. The bird became her inseparable companion and helped pull her out of the sadness and loneliness she experienced after her husband’s death followed by her own struggle with cancer. “It wrote me a new life,” she said. Lattouf never turns away a bird. Together with her partner Cecilia Santos, they care for the birds in long days that stretch from 5 A．m. into the night. Most of the hummingbirds are in the bedroom where Lattouf sleeps until they are strong enough to fly and feed themselves. Then she moves them to a neighboring room to prepare them for release in a wooded area on the city’s south side. Many of them do manage to return to the wild, but the ones who die under Lattouf’s care are buried near her building between small plants. Despite threats to hummingbirds from constant construction projects that replace flower gardens with concrete, Lattouf remains optimistic and hopes other bird lovers will plant more flowers to feed these great pollinators (传粉者). 4. What does the underlined word “converted” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Reduced. B. Transformed. C. Protected. D. Simplified. 5. Why did Lattouf start caring for hummingbirds? A. She wanted to honor her late husband. B. Raising birds was her childhood dream. C. She needed a hobby after surviving cancer. D. A friend asked her to help with an injured bird. 6. What is one of the threats to hummingbirds according to the last paragraph? A. Increased use of chemicals in gardens. B. Climate change leading to loss of habitat. C. Building projects replacing flower gardens. D. Pollution of water sources in their natural environment. 7. What can be inferred about Catia Lattouf based on the text? A. She is unfriendly and only works with birds. B. She is wealthy as she keeps birds in her bedroom. C. She is positive and has found a new purpose in life. D. She is qualified as she has received formal training in bird care. 【答案】4. B 5. D 6. C 7. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Catia Lattouf在墨西哥城 Polanco区将她的公寓改造成一个鸟诊所，专门照顾受伤、生病和幼小的蜂鸟的故事。 【4题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段中“In Mexico City’s Polanco neighborhood, Catia Lattouf has turned her apartment into a clinic for sick, injured, or baby hummingbirds.(在墨西哥城的Polanco社区，Catia Lattouf把她的公寓变成了一个诊所，为生病、受伤或蜂鸟宝宝提供服务)”及画线词后文“from apartment to clinic (从公寓到诊所)可知，Catia Lattouf将她的公寓改造成了一个鸟诊所，由此可猜测，划线单词宝石“转变”，与Transformed意思相近。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Lattouf began caring for hummingbirds a year after surviving colon cancer in 2011. It started with one hummingbird that had an eye injury. A veterinarian (兽医) friend encouraged her to try to help it.(2011年，拉图夫从结肠癌中幸存下来，一年后开始照顾蜂鸟。事情始于一只眼睛受伤的蜂鸟。一位兽医朋友鼓励她试着去帮助它)”可知，Lattouf在2011年战胜结肠癌一年后开始照顾蜂鸟，起初是因为一只眼睛受伤的蜂鸟，她的兽医朋友鼓励她尝试帮助这只鸟，由此可知，她开始这一行为是因为朋友的请求。故选D。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Despite threats to hummingbirds from constant construction projects that replace flower gardens with concrete, Lattouf remains optimistic and hopes other bird lovers will plant more flowers to feed these great pollinators (传粉者). (尽管不断的建设项目用混凝土取代花园对蜂鸟构成威胁，但拉图夫仍然保持乐观，并希望其他鸟类爱好者种植更多的花来喂养这些伟大的传粉者)”可知，持续的建设活动将花园替换成了混凝土，这对蜂鸟构成了威胁，这直接指出了城市建设项目取代花园是威胁蜂鸟生存的一个因素。故选C。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Lattouf began caring for hummingbirds a year after surviving colon cancer in 2011. It started with one hummingbird that had an eye injury. A veterinarian (兽医) friend encouraged her to try to help it. She named it Gucci after the brand of the glasses case she kept it in. The bird became her inseparable companion and helped pull her out of the sadness and loneliness she experienced after her husband’s death followed by her own struggle with cancer. “It wrote me a new life,” she said. ( 2011年，拉图夫从结肠癌中幸存下来，一年后开始照顾蜂鸟。事情始于一只眼睛受伤的蜂鸟。一位兽医朋友鼓励她试着去帮助它。她把它命名为Gucci，这是她保存它的玻璃盒的牌子。这只鸟成了她形影不离的伴侣，帮助她走出了丈夫去世后经历的悲伤和孤独，以及她自己与癌症的斗争。“它给我带来了新的生活，”她说)”可知，Lattouf通过照顾蜂鸟克服悲伤和孤独，这表明她是一个乐观的人，并且在生命中找到了新的目标和意义，尽管经历了个人悲剧，她仍然保持积极态度并致力于保护这些小鸟。故选C。 C Reducing calorie intake may lead to a thinner body and a longer life. People usually think it is because of weight loss and metabolic (新陈代谢) changes from eating less. But a recent study on diet limits in laboratory animals challenges this traditional view. To study how diet works, researchers observed 960 mice. These mice were genetically different, like humans. Some mice had calorie-limited diets, some fasted (禁食的) regularly, and others ate as they liked. It was found that diets with restricted calories caused weight loss and metabolic changes. However, factors like immune health, genes, and the body’s ability to bear stress seem to better explain the link between fewer calories and a longer life. Gary Churchill, a mouse researcher, said, “Metabolic changes are important, but they don’t directly lead to a longer life.” Other scientists think this shows how complicated the body’s response to calorie reduction. Cutting calories by 40% made the mice live the longest on average. But fasting regularly and less strict calorie limits also increased lifespan (寿命). As is known, dieting mice have positive metabolic changes such as less body fat and lower blood sugar. However, the effects of diet limits on metabolism and lifespan didn’t always go together. Surprisingly, mice that lost the most weight on a low-calorie diet sometimes died younger than those that lost less. This means that more than just metabolism affects how the body reacts to fewer calories. Immune health and red-blood-cell function were important for a longer life. Also, the body’s overall ability to handle stress was important. The findings may change how scientists think about diet limits in humans. In a human trial of a low-calorie diet, researchers found that it reduced metabolic rates. But the mouse data suggests that metabolic measures may only show “health span”, not lifespan. Scientist Edmma notes that the study needs more evidence and warns not to directly use mouse results for humans, but he also admits that the study shows healthspan and lifespan are different. 8. How was the study conducted? A. By comparing mice with human beings. B. By developing the feeding habits of mice. C. By conducting experiment on different animals. D. By adopting the controlled experiment method. 9. What surprising result does the study reveal? A. All mice live longer under diet restriction. B. Dieting mice have positive metabolic changes. C. Regular fasting have little impact on the lifespan of mice. D. Mice with significant weight loss can have shorter lives. 10. What is scientist Edmma’s attitude toward the study? A. Cautious. B. Critical. C. Optimistic. D. Uncaring. 11. What’s the best title for the text? A. Metabolism: The Key to a Longer Life B. Less Food, Longer Life: The Simple Solution C. Diet and Lifespan: It’s More than Metabolism D. Calorie Restriction: Weight Loss and Metabolic Change 【答案】8. D 9. D 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项实验室动物饮食限制的研究发现，低卡路里摄入虽能引起体重减轻和代谢变化，但免疫健康、基因和身体承受压力的能力等因素对长寿的影响更为关键，这挑战了传统观点。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“These mice were genetically different, like humans. Some mice had calorie-limited diets, some fasted (禁食的) regularly, and others ate as they liked. (这些老鼠的基因不同，就像人类一样。一些老鼠限制卡路里的饮食，一些经常禁食，而另一些则随心所欲地吃)”可知，研究是通过控制实验方法进行的，即观察不同饮食限制下的老鼠。故选D项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“Surprisingly, mice that lost the most weight on a low-calorie diet sometimes died younger than those that lost less. (令人惊讶的是，通过低热量饮食减肥最多的老鼠有时比减肥较少的老鼠死得更早)”可知，一个令人惊讶的结果是，体重减轻最多的老鼠寿命可能更短。故选D项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Scientist Edmma notes that the study needs more evidence and warns not to directly use mouse results for humans, but he also admits that the study shows healthspan and lifespan are different. (科学家Edmma指出，这项研究需要更多的证据，并警告不要直接将小鼠的结果用于人类，但他也承认，这项研究表明健康寿命和寿命是不同的)”可知，Edmma认为需要更多的证据来支撑该研究，不能直接将研究结果从小鼠推及人类。由此推知，他对该研究持谨慎态度。故选A项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“Reducing calorie intake may lead to a thinner body and a longer life. People usually think it is because of weight loss and metabolic (新陈代谢) changes from eating less. But a recent study on diet limits in laboratory animals challenges this traditional view. (减少卡路里的摄入可以使身体更瘦，寿命更长。人们通常认为这是因为减肥和少吃引起的代谢变化。但最近一项关于实验室动物饮食限制的研究挑战了这种传统观点)”和第二段中“It was found that diets with restricted calories caused weight loss and metabolic changes. However, factors like immune health, genes, and the body’s ability to bear stress seem to better explain the link between fewer calories and a longer life. (研究发现，限制卡路里的饮食会导致体重减轻和代谢变化。然而，免疫健康、基因和身体承受压力的能力等因素似乎能更好地解释低卡路里和长寿之间的联系)”可知，文章呈现了一项实验室动物饮食限制的研究，该研究发现低卡路里摄入虽能引起体重减轻和代谢变化，但免疫健康、基因和身体承受压力的能力等因素对长寿的影响更为关键，挑战了传统观点。由此可知，C项“饮食与寿命：不仅仅是新陈代谢”最准确地概括了文章主旨，适合作为文章标题。故选C项。 D For years, we’ve been teaching a class on music and the mind. At the start of each semester, we’ve asked the students to complete a survey on their favorite songs and artists. Students’ favorite songs and artists get longer and more varied each year and their playlists barely overlap (重叠). Indeed, listening to music is a deeply private and personal experience nowadays and even more so with the introduction of the iPod and smartphones. When teenagers listen to music via streaming, artificial intelligence and social media platforms team up to suggest personalized playlists for them. Some young people feel that AI generated playlists make them exposed to something dull. Their playlists are populated with songs and artists they’ve never heard of before, yet they all sound similar. In the past, they might not have noticed such a situation. Their musical consumption was narrowly dominated by the“Top-40” artists. However, AI generated playlists have changed this, since a wider range of music is available. If they think their AI influenced playlists are unappealing, they still have the ability to search for new music. Just because AI can suggest songs, it doesn’t prevent them researching and discovering music on their own, or sharing playlists. Anything that exists, they can find. The store is always open. Music listening and preferences play an important role in young people’s transition (过渡) from childhood to adulthood, two seemingly opposing but vital processes: forming a unique identity, while at the same time becoming part of a community. However, AI generated playlists have the potential to challenge this transition. So does AI make it easier to differentiate the self, but harder to bond with others? Fears of new technologies are commonplace. For example, the decline of scheduled network TV erased lots of common ground for discussion, so will 50 million Americans ever again tune in to watch the series ending ofa TV show, as they did for Friends in 2004? If AI is, indeed, contributing to the transformation of teenagers’ shared listening experiences, then AI playlists are more than a convenient way to discover their next favorites. They are a revolution worth paying attention to. 12. What makes teenagers’ music listening experiences more private? A. The popularization of music education. B. The lack of interaction among teenagers. C. The easy access to musical instruments. D. The extensive use of electronic devices. 13. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about concerning AI generated playlists? A. Their advantages. B. Their accessibility. C. Their limitations. D. Their development. 14. What challenge may AI generated playlists present? A. They result in the decline of network TV. B. They prevent teens choosing similar songs. C. They make identifying oneself impossible. D. They provide less for teens to communicate. 15. Why does the author mention Friends in Paragraph 5? A. To show the potential social influence of AI. B. To tell us the predictability of new technology. C. To explain people’s willingness to accept AI. D. To emphasize its popularity among Americans. 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了人工智能生成播放列表，为青少年提供了更广泛的音乐选择。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Indeed, listening to music is a deeply private and personal experience nowadays and even more so with the introduction of the iPod and smartphones. When teenagers listen to music via streaming, artificial intelligence and social media platforms team up to suggest personalized playlists for them.(的确，如今听音乐是一种非常私人和个人的体验，随着iPod和智能手机的推出，这种体验更是如此。当青少年通过流媒体听音乐时，人工智能和社交媒体平台会联合起来，为他们推荐个性化的播放列表)”可知，电子产品的使用和普及使听音乐更加个性化，故选D。 【13题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“Some young people feel that AI generated playlists make them exposed to something dull. Their playlists are populated with songs and artists they’ve never heard of before, yet they all sound similar. In the past, they might not have noticed such a situation. Their musical consumption was narrowly dominated by the“Top-40” artists. However, AI generated playlists have changed this, since a wider range of music is available. If they think their AI influenced playlists are unappealing, they still have the ability to search for new music. Just because AI can suggest songs, it doesn’t prevent them researching and discovering music on their own, or sharing playlists. Anything that exists, they can find. The store is always open.(一些年轻人认为，人工智能生成的播放列表让他们接触到一些无聊的东西。他们的播放列表中充斥着他们从未听说过的歌曲和艺术家，但它们听起来都很相似。在过去，他们可能没有注意到这种情况。他们的音乐消费被“前40名”歌手勉强占据。然而，人工智能生成的播放列表改变了这一点，因为有更广泛的音乐可供选择。如果他们认为人工智能影响的播放列表没有吸引力，他们仍然有能力搜索新的音乐。仅仅因为人工智能可以推荐歌曲，这并不妨碍它们自己研究和发现音乐，或者分享播放列表。他们能找到任何存在的东西。这家商店一直营业)”可知，第三段通过比较的方式，主要强调了AI生成式歌单的优点，故选A。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Music listening and preferences play an important role in young people’s transition (过渡) from childhood to adulthood, two seemingly opposing but vital processes: forming a unique identity, while at the same time becoming part of a community. However, AI generated playlists have the potential to challenge this transition. So does AI make it easier to differentiate the self, but harder to bond with others?(音乐聆听和音乐偏好在年轻人从童年到成年的过渡过程中扮演着重要的角色，这是两个看似对立但至关重要的过程：形成一个独特的身份，同时成为一个社区的一部分。然而，人工智能生成的播放列表有可能挑战这种转变。那么，人工智能是否让我们更容易区分自我，但却更难与他人建立联系？)”可知，AI生成式歌单可能呈现的挑战是让青少年之间的联系更加困难，减少了共同讨论、交流的话题的机会，故选D。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“Fears of new technologies are commonplace. For example, the decline of scheduled network TV erased lots of common ground for discussion, so will 50 million Americans ever again tune in to watch the series ending of a TV show, as they did for Friends in 2004?(对新技术的恐惧是司空见惯的。例如，定期电视网络的衰落抹去了许多讨论的共同基础，那么5000万美国人还会像2004年看《老友记》那样，收看电视节目的结局吗？)”可知，AI可能造成的社会影响，故选A。 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。 Wildlife documentaries are known for offering breathtaking images of animals in their natural habitats. You might be thinking that these shows offer a totally real portrayal (描绘) of these animals-an objective window into their lives as they hunt, rest and raise their young. ____16____ While the images we see are filmed on location, many of the sounds are recorded in a sound studio and added to the programs later by human “Foley artists (拟音师)”. ____17____ Usually, documentary filmmakers can film their subjects from a great distance, but they typically can’t get close enough to capture clear sounds without disturbing the animals. ____18____ There will probably be background noises such as crew members chatting or walking around if sounds are recorded on location. In other cases, the animals might make sounds of a frequency or volume that most microphones simply can’t capture clearly. “Foley artists” will use a variety of tools to simulate (模拟) the sounds made by animals. And most of them will create the close-up sounds of animals chewing or yawning with their own mouths. These sounds are created as the artist watches the videos, making sure they perfectly match the actions they’re paired with. ____19____ Animal cries — which are far too complex to be simulated — will have to be taken from library recordings. Watching “Foley artists” at work on wildlife projects gives me a thrill like the one we get when we see how a magic trick is done. Admittedly, the significance of the technique goes further. ____20____ Sounds have the ability to affect our understanding of a given species. A. But this isn’t quite the case. B. There are some exceptions, though. C. The Foley process involves a large team. D. Wildlife documentaries also tend to require large crews. E. Sounds guide our emotional interpretation of the things we see F. This is an unavoidable outcome of modern wildlife filmmaking. G. How it is portrayed in documentaries may also impact conservation efforts. 【答案】16. A 17. F 18. D 19. B 20. E 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了野生动物纪录片制作过程中声音录制的技术细节，特别是拟音师的工作，以及这些技术手段对观众理解动物行为和保护工作的影响。 【16题详解】 根据下文“While the images we see are filmed on location, many of the sounds are recorded in a sound studio and added to the programs later by human “Foley artists (拟音师)”.(尽管我们看到的图像是在现场拍摄的，但许多声音是在录音室录制的，并由人类“拟音师”稍后添加到节目中)”可知，虽然图像在现场拍摄，但录制声音的方式有所不同。A项“但这并不是完全如此”与上文“You might be thinking that these shows offer a totally real portrayal (描绘) of these animals-an objective window into their lives as they hunt, rest and raise their young.(你可能会认为，这些节目对这些动物进行了完全真实的描绘，为它们狩猎、休息和养育幼崽的生活提供了一个客观的窗口。) ”构成转折关系，引出下文，符合语境。故选A。 【17题详解】 根据上文“While the images we see are filmed on location, many of the sounds are recorded in a sound studio and added to the programs later by human “Foley artists (拟音师)”.(尽管我们看到的图像是在现场拍摄的，但许多声音是在录音室录制的，并由人类“拟音师”稍后添加到节目中)”表明，图像和声音不是同时录制的；根据下文“Usually, documentary filmmakers can film their subjects from a great distance, but they typically can’t get close enough to capture clear sounds without disturbing the animals.(通常，纪录片制片人可以从很远的距离拍摄他们的主题，但他们通常无法在不打扰动物的情况下足够近地捕捉到清晰的声音)”解释了图像和声音不能同时录制的原因。F项“这是现代野生动物电影制作不可避免的结果”承上启下，符合语境。故选F。 【18题详解】 根据下文“There will probably be background noises such as crew members chatting or walking around if sounds are recorded on location.(如果在现场录制声音，可能会有工作人员聊天或走动的背景噪音)”解释了现场录制声音的背景噪音问题。D项“野生动物纪录片通常也需要大量的工作人员”指出图像和声音不能同时录制的第二个原因，选项中的“crews”与下文中的“crew members”相呼应，符合语境。故选D。 【19题详解】 上文““Foley artists” will use a variety of tools to simulate (模拟) the sounds made by animals. And most of them will create the close-up sounds of animals chewing or yawning with their own mouths. These sounds are created as the artist watches the videos, making sure they perfectly match the actions they’re paired with.(“拟音师”将使用各种工具来模拟动物发出的声音。他们中的大多数人会用自己的嘴创造出动物咀嚼或打哈欠的特写声音。这些声音是在艺术家观看视频时创造的，确保它们与他们配对的动作完美匹配)”描述“拟音师”怎样给图像配音；下文“Animal cries — which are far too complex to be simulated — will have to be taken from library recordings.(动物的叫声——太过复杂而无法模拟——必须从录音库中获取)”指出有些动物的叫声过于复杂，无法模拟。B项“然而，也有一些例外”表明有例外的情况，承上启下，符合语境。故选B。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Admittedly, the significance of the technique goes further.(诚然，这项技术的意义更为深远)”及下文“Sounds have the ability to affect our understanding of a given species.(声音有能力影响我们对某一特定物种的理解)”可知，此处应该解释“更进一步”的具体表现，并引起下文“声音能够影响我们对某一物种的理解”。E项“声音引导我们对所看到事物的情感解读”承接了“影响理解”这一核心，从情感层面解释了声音如何作用于观众的理解，与前后逻辑连贯。原文强调声音对“理解物种”的影响，而选项E中的“情感解读”是“理解”的重要组成部分。选项G虽涉及保护努力，但原文未提及相关内容，偏离了上下文的核心。因此，选项E在内容上更贴合语境，直接回答了“技术重要性如何体现”的问题。故选E。 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1 5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。 When Angela Zhao was just 10 years old, she entered her first piano competition. On the day of the ___21___, each participant had to perform their piece. At first, Angela was excited.

On November Ist, I used up most of the money I saved. With a small amount of pocket money left before Christmas I didn’t have enough to buy presents for the family. I was seriously considering going to my dad and asking for an advance on the next year’s pocket money, so I could at least buy gifts for my family members. But then, one evening, I was sitting in my room reading advertisements in the back of a magazine. Several greeting-card companies were telling us how people could make money by selling their cards and stationery (文具). Normally, I would have passed right over the ads, but this time my situation was so difficult that I felt I had nothing to lose. The ad that attracted me most was one by a well-known greeting-card company in my nation, whose products were of high quality. With my parents’ help, I contacted the company, although they preferred adults or older kids to advertise their products. After my sincere request, they agreed to give me, a nine-year-old boy, a chance. My sales materials arrived within the week. I had expected something small and neat, but the package looked like a dinosaur’s shoebox it was close to three feet long and nearly a foot wide, full of stuff. There was a thick binder (活页夹) containing a complete selection of the cards and some writing paper, which I would be selling for around $3 per box. Although my parents supported my try to make money by myself, they had little confidence in my success; after all, instead of an outgoing kid, I was somewhat shy. However, I was determined to have a try to challenge myself. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Wasting no time, I set off and knocked on doors in my neighborhood. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Eventually, I earned over $20, a large sum of money for a 9-year-old kid in 1954. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Wasting no time, I set off and knocked on doors in my neighborhood. Gathering my courage, I introduced myself as the young representative of the well-known greeting-card company. The initial responses were mixed — some were hesitant, while others were fascinated by the idea of a child engaged in such a venture. As I showcased the high-quality cards and shared the story behind each design, the doubt began to fade away, replaced by genuine interest. Surprisingly, my shy character transformed into enthusiasm, and I found myself engaging in conversations that extended beyond the purpose of sales. Eventually, I earned over $20, a large sum of money for a 9-year-old kid in 1954. The community’s response exceeded my expectations, and the support I received went beyond mere financial transactions. Neighbors were not just buying cards; they were encouraging a young entrepreneur. This unexpected journey into sales not only alleviated my financial concerns for Christmas but also instilled a sense of accomplishment and self-confidence. It broadened my horizons and laid the foundation for a newfound belief in the possibilities that determination and courage could unfold, regardless of age. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，以人物为线索。作者九岁的时候预算紧张，没有足够的钱给家人买圣诞礼物。一天他在看杂志的时候发现了一则关于如何卖贺卡和文具赚钱的广告，于是作者在父母的帮助下联系了国内最知名的一家贺卡公司，请求给自己一个机会。作者收到贺卡公司寄来的销售材料后就开始了行动，他挨家挨户地推销产品，获得了不错的反馈。这个经历不仅缓解了作者的财务状况，也让作者产生了成就感和自信心。 【详解】1. 续写线索： ①由续写第一段首句“我当即出发，敲开了附近的门。”可知，第一段可以描写作者挨家挨户推销贺卡的经历。 ②由续写第二段首句“最终，我赚了20多美元，这对1954年一个9岁的孩子来说是一大笔钱。”可知，第二段可以描写这次经历不仅给作者带来了经济收益，还让作者有了成就感和自信心。 2. 段落续写：作者挨家挨户敲门推销贺卡——最初收到的反应有好有坏——作者后来用认真和敬业的推销态度提高了成功率——作者赚到一笔巨款——这次销售经历给作者不仅带来了经济收益，还有成就感和自信心。 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①从事：(be) engaged in/undertake/engage in ②展示：showcase/display/demonstrate ③衰退：fade away/decline/die away ④代替：replace/take the place of ⑤缓解：alleviate/relieve 情绪类 ①对……着迷：be fascinated by/be intrigued by/be hooked on ②真诚的：genuine/sincere ③令人惊讶地：surprisingly/to one’s surprise 【点睛】【高分句型1】As I showcased the high-quality cards and shared the story behind each design, the doubt began to fade away, replaced by genuine interest.(使用了As引导时间状语从句、不定式作宾语、过去分词作状语) 【高分句型2】Surprisingly, my shy character transformed into enthusiasm, and I found myself engaging in conversations that extended beyond the purpose of sales.

El Calafate, Argentina Every day, groups of buses depart El Calafate for the Perito Moreno glacier — an accessible icy sight, and one of the world’s few advancing glaciers. A series of boardwalks lead to various viewpoints that allow you to be amazed at this shining, blue-white wall of ice. Futaleufú, Chile Imagine it: you and the rest of the rafting crew are waiting for the signal from the rafting guide to row like your life depends on it. Huge river waves are hitting the boat and white-water spray showers you head to foot. You wipe the water out of your eyes and enjoy the sunshine when people in the Northern Hemisphere suffer from the freezing cold, and there are numerous guesthouses where you can base yourself. Cueva de las Manos, Argentina In a hidden canyon, reachable by tour or your own wheels, a boardwalk leads you past a vast overhanging rock face, decorated with ancient rock art. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is one of the most famous rock art sites in South America, with over 800 outlines of human hands and feet of wildlife. Punta Tombo, Argentina You smell the penguins before you see them. The presence of nearly a million Magellanic penguins — some hiding underground, some going fishing in the sea, others standing around — is a powerful effect on your senses. The long, narrow peninsula also attracts gulls, flightless steamer ducks, and black oystercatchers. 1. What can you do in El Calafate, Argentina? A. Carve icy walls. B. Admire glaciers. C. Enjoy bus tours. D. Decorate boardwalks. 2. In which month can you take on the white-water rafting trips? A. January. B. May. C. August. D. October. 3. Where should you go if you are interested in observing live wildlife? A. Futaleufú, Chile B. El Calafate, Argentina C. Punta Tombo, Argentina D. Cueva de las Manos, Argentina B In Mexico City’s Polanco neighborhood, Catia Lattouf has turned her apartment into a clinic for sick, injured, or baby hummingbirds. Over the past decade, though lacking formal training, she has nursed hundreds of these tiny birds back to health. Lattouf, a 73-year-old French literature enthusiast, has become a go-to resource for bird lovers across Mexico and Latin America. The shelter converted from apartment to clinic supports more formal institutions like the Iztacala campus of Mexico’s National Autonomous University, which sometimes refers cases to her due to limited resources. Lattouf began caring for hummingbirds a year after surviving colon cancer in 2011. It started with one hummingbird that had an eye injury. A veterinarian (兽医) friend encouraged her to try to help it. She named it Gucci after the brand of the glasses case she kept it in. The bird became her inseparable companion and helped pull her out of the sadness and loneliness she experienced after her husband’s death followed by her own struggle with cancer. “It wrote me a new life,” she said. Lattouf never turns away a bird. Together with her partner Cecilia Santos, they care for the birds in long days that stretch from 5 A．m. into the night. Most of the hummingbirds are in the bedroom where Lattouf sleeps until they are strong enough to fly and feed themselves. Then she moves them to a neighboring room to prepare them for release in a wooded area on the city’s south side. Many of them do manage to return to the wild, but the ones who die under Lattouf’s care are buried near her building between small plants. Despite threats to hummingbirds from constant construction projects that replace flower gardens with concrete, Lattouf remains optimistic and hopes other bird lovers will plant more flowers to feed these great pollinators (传粉者). 4. What does the underlined word “converted” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Reduced. B. Transformed. C. Protected. D. Simplified. 5. Why did Lattouf start caring for hummingbirds? A. She wanted to honor her late husband. B. Raising birds was her childhood dream. C. She needed a hobby after surviving cancer. D. A friend asked her to help with an injured bird. 6. What is one of the threats to hummingbirds according to the last paragraph? A. Increased use of chemicals in gardens. B. Climate change leading to loss of habitat. C. Building projects replacing flower gardens. D. Pollution of water sources in their natural environment. 7. What can be inferred about Catia Lattouf based on the text? A. She is unfriendly and only works with birds. B. She is wealthy as she keeps birds in her bedroom. C. She is positive and has found a new purpose in life. D. She is qualified as she has received formal training in bird care. C Reducing calorie intake may lead to a thinner body and a longer life. People usually think it is because of weight loss and metabolic (新陈代谢) changes from eating less. But a recent study on diet limits in laboratory animals challenges this traditional view. To study how diet works, researchers observed 960 mice. These mice were genetically different, like humans. Some mice had calorie-limited diets, some fasted (禁食的) regularly, and others ate as they liked. It was found that diets with restricted calories caused weight loss and metabolic changes. However, factors like immune health, genes, and the body’s ability to bear stress seem to better explain the link between fewer calories and a longer life. Gary Churchill, a mouse researcher, said, “Metabolic changes are important, but they don’t directly lead to a longer life.” Other scientists think this shows how complicated the body’s response to calorie reduction. Cutting calories by 40% made the mice live the longest on average. But fasting regularly and less strict calorie limits also increased lifespan (寿命). As is known, dieting mice have positive metabolic changes such as less body fat and lower blood sugar. However, the effects of diet limits on metabolism and lifespan didn’t always go together. Surprisingly, mice that lost the most weight on a low-calorie diet sometimes died younger than those that lost less. This means that more than just metabolism affects how the body reacts to fewer calories. Immune health and red-blood-cell function were important for a longer life. Also, the body’s overall ability to handle stress was important. The findings may change how scientists think about diet limits in humans. In a human trial of a low-calorie diet, researchers found that it reduced metabolic rates. But the mouse data suggests that metabolic measures may only show “health span”, not lifespan. Scientist Edmma notes that the study needs more evidence and warns not to directly use mouse results for humans, but he also admits that the study shows healthspan and lifespan are different. 8.

At the start of each semester, we’ve asked the students to complete a survey on their favorite songs and artists. Students’ favorite songs and artists get longer and more varied each year and their playlists barely overlap (重叠). Indeed, listening to music is a deeply private and personal experience nowadays and even more so with the introduction of the iPod and smartphones. When teenagers listen to music via streaming, artificial intelligence and social media platforms team up to suggest personalized playlists for them. Some young people feel that AI generated playlists make them exposed to something dull. Their playlists are populated with songs and artists they’ve never heard of before, yet they all sound similar. In the past, they might not have noticed such a situation. Their musical consumption was narrowly dominated by the“Top-40” artists. However, AI generated playlists have changed this, since a wider range of music is available. If they think their AI influenced playlists are unappealing, they still have the ability to search for new music. Just because AI can suggest songs, it doesn’t prevent them researching and discovering music on their own, or sharing playlists. Anything that exists, they can find. The store is always open. Music listening and preferences play an important role in young people’s transition (过渡) from childhood to adulthood, two seemingly opposing but vital processes: forming a unique identity, while at the same time becoming part of a community. However, AI generated playlists have the potential to challenge this transition. So does AI make it easier to differentiate the self, but harder to bond with others? Fears of new technologies are commonplace. For example, the decline of scheduled network TV erased lots of common ground for discussion, so will 50 million Americans ever again tune in to watch the series ending ofa TV show, as they did for Friends in 2004? If AI is, indeed, contributing to the transformation of teenagers’ shared listening experiences, then AI playlists are more than a convenient way to discover their next favorites. They are a revolution worth paying attention to. 12. What makes teenagers’ music listening experiences more private? A. The popularization of music education. B. The lack of interaction among teenagers. C. The easy access to musical instruments. D. The extensive use of electronic devices. 13. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about concerning AI generated playlists? A. Their advantages. B. Their accessibility. C. Their limitations. D. Their development. 14. What challenge may AI generated playlists present? A. They result in the decline of network TV. B. They prevent teens choosing similar songs. C. They make identifying oneself impossible. D. They provide less for teens to communicate. 15. Why does the author mention Friends in Paragraph 5? A. To show the potential social influence of AI. B. To tell us the predictability of new technology. C. To explain people’s willingness to accept AI. D. To emphasize its popularity among Americans. 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。 Wildlife documentaries are known for offering breathtaking images of animals in their natural habitats. You might be thinking that these shows offer a totally real portrayal (描绘) of these animals-an objective window into their lives as they hunt, rest and raise their young. ____16____ While the images we see are filmed on location, many of the sounds are recorded in a sound studio and added to the programs later by human “Foley artists (拟音师)”. ____17____ Usually, documentary filmmakers can film their subjects from a great distance, but they typically can’t get close enough to capture clear sounds without disturbing the animals. ____18____ There will probably be background noises such as crew members chatting or walking around if sounds are recorded on location. In other cases, the animals might make sounds of a frequency or volume that most microphones simply can’t capture clearly. “Foley artists” will use a variety of tools to simulate (模拟) the sounds made by animals. And most of them will create the close-up sounds of animals chewing or yawning with their own mouths. These sounds are created as the artist watches the videos, making sure they perfectly match the actions they’re paired with. ____19____ Animal cries — which are far too complex to be simulated — will have to be taken from library recordings. Watching “Foley artists” at work on wildlife projects gives me a thrill like the one we get when we see how a magic trick is done. Admittedly, the significance of the technique goes further. ____20____ Sounds have the ability to affect our understanding of a given species. A. But this isn’t quite the case. B. There are some exceptions, though. C. The Foley process involves a large team. D. Wildlife documentaries also tend to require large crews. E. Sounds guide our emotional interpretation of the things we see F. This is an unavoidable outcome of modern wildlife filmmaking. G. How it is portrayed in documentaries may also impact conservation efforts. 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1 5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。 When Angela Zhao was just 10 years old, she entered her first piano competition.

On November Ist, I used up most of the money I saved. With a small amount of pocket money left before Christmas I didn’t have enough to buy presents for the family. I was seriously considering going to my dad and asking for an advance on the next year’s pocket money, so I could at least buy gifts for my family members. But then, one evening, I was sitting in my room reading advertisements in the back of a magazine. Several greeting-card companies were telling us how people could make money by selling their cards and stationery (文具). Normally, I would have passed right over the ads, but this time my situation was so difficult that I felt I had nothing to lose. The ad that attracted me most was one by a well-known greeting-card company in my nation, whose products were of high quality. With my parents’ help, I contacted the company, although they preferred adults or older kids to advertise their products. After my sincere request, they agreed to give me, a nine-year-old boy, a chance. My sales materials arrived within the week. I had expected something small and neat, but the package looked like a dinosaur’s shoebox it was close to three feet long and nearly a foot wide, full of stuff. There was a thick binder (活页夹) containing a complete selection of the cards and some writing paper, which I would be selling for around $3 per box. Although my parents supported my try to make money by myself, they had little confidence in my success; after all, instead of an outgoing kid, I was somewhat shy. However, I was determined to have a try to challenge myself. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Wasting no time, I set off and knocked on doors in my neighborhood. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Eventually, I earned over $20, a large sum of money for a 9-year-old kid in 1954. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
