Here are some of the most walkable places to enjoy this spring. Lucca, Italy While Florence and Rome may attract more tourists, Lucca remains a cultural treasure in Tuscany that is well worth exploring. The city is famous for its well-preserved walls that once defended the historic city center. Walking along the tree-lined top of the walls, visitors can enjoy some of the finest views over the historic rooftops and the surrounding Tuscan countryside. Cape Town, South Africa Cape Town is a culturally diverse city with something for every traveler. The most walkable area is the V&A Waterfront, which is full of various shops, restaurants and bars. The views here are excellent: Visitors can see the sea on one side and the famous Table Mountain on the other. To see amazing sights from the peak, visitors can take a cable car (缆车) up the mountain from another part of the city. Knightsbridge, United Kingdom Knightsbridge is one of London’s richest and most walkable areas, where high-end living meets easy access. Walking through its beautiful streets, you shouldn’t miss the famous Harrods department store and the many old Victorian buildings around it. You can also spend time in the peaceful local parks to enjoy the scenery. Zurich, Switzerland Zurich combines old-world beauty with modern convenience, ranking among Europe’s best cities for walking. The Old Town has narrow, winding streets, ancient buildings and important historical sites. Walkers can relax in the city’s well-maintained parks or take pleasant paths along Lake Zurich, which can offer delightful walks with views of the distant mountains. 21. What is a special feature of Lucca’s city walls? A. They offer the best city views. B. They are the tallest in Tuscany. C. They serve the original defensive function. D. They have a path on top shaded by trees. 22. What can visitors do at the V&A Waterfront? A. Enjoy sea and peak views while dining. B. Visit historical sites along the coastline. C. Explore diverse dining and shopping. D. Ride a cable car up Table Mountain. 23. What do Knightsbridge and Zurich have in common? A. They are famous for shopping. B. They have large modern parks. C. They have historic architecture. D. They are located near mountains. B In the summer of 2025, when a fire swept through the Miller family’s home, they lost almost everything. Among the lost items was a photograph — one that showed the family gathered around the Thanksgiving table years ago. It was not just a picture but a memory of a happy moment when everyone was together. James Miller felt that losing the photo was like losing a piece of their family story. Then he learned about a local artist named Elena Vance, who deeply cares about people’s suffering and shares in their pain, hoping to use art to help ease their sadness. She offered to help people like him by painting their lost memories — not from photographs, but from the descriptions they could give. Elena asked each family member to describe the scene in their own words. She gathered all these pieces of memory like putting together a puzzle. Using these stories, Elena began to paint. She did not try to copy a missing photo exactly. Instead, she wanted to express the feeling of that evening — the soft light, the happy faces and the sense of being together. She used warm colors and gentle brushwork to show not just people around a table, but a family connected by love. When the Miller family saw the finished painting, they were deeply moved. The painting did more than show a scene — it brought back the emotion, the warmth and the unity they had felt. Elena normally sells her artwork, but for families who had lost everything, she painted for free. “Personal income is not what matters; the key is that art can heal the human heart,” she explained. Elena has been painting for those who have lost their memories in the disaster. From people’s descriptions, beautiful scenes come to life on paper — family trips at sunset, starlit barbecue nights, a spring garden proposal, a child’s peaceful nap, and walking pets through flowers. Life’s beauty lives in these scenes. Our real treasures aren’t possessions but shared moments with loved ones. 24. What happened to James Miller in the summer of 2025? A. He left his childhood house. B. His house was burned down. C. He lost a beloved family member. D. His valuable painting went up in flames. 25. What did Elena focus on in the painting? A. The vividness of figures. B. The great details of the scene. C. The exact background of the story. D. The emotional atmosphere of the dinner. 26. Which of the following can best describe Elena? A. Flexible and creative. B. Sympathetic and selfless. C. Responsible and generous. D. Talented and knowledgeable. 27. What is a suitable title for the text? A. Happy Family Reunion: The Best Thanksgiving Ever B. Heal Broken Hearts: Painting Memories from Words C. Live in the Moment: Life Is Better with Loved Ones D. Inspiration from Nature: Rewarding Life of an Artist C What do you do to be healthy? Let’s say you follow the advice of doctors, health blogs, and wellness influencers perfectly. You walk 10,000 steps a day. You get eight hours of quality sleep at night. You eat plenty of fresh vegetables and avoid processed foods. Your physical and mental health improve as a result — but only up to a point. Traditional health advice overlooks a vital element: human connection. Your relationships can determine how long you live, and your social interactions influence whether or not you will develop certain diseases like heart disease and depression. Health is not only physical or mental. It is also social. While physical health concerns the body and mental health the mind, social health centers on relationships. Being socially healthy requires establishing bonds, belonging to communities, and feeling supported, valued, and loved. Today, social health shows widespread decline. According to Gallup, 330 million adults around the globe suffer through weeks at a time without speaking to a single family member or friend, and 20% of all adults worldwide don’t have anyone to seek help from. This lack of connection is dangerous, increasing people’s risk of stroke (中风) by 32%, dementia (痴呆) by 50% and early death by 29%. Most people underestimate the importance of relationships for health. A 2018 survey in the US and UK found people perceived relational factors like social support as far less important for life expectancy than factors like smoking or exercise. However, in fact, researchers found social integration and social support were the number one and number two biggest predictors of risk of death. While the impact of factors like smoking and exercise are well known, we clearly have a long way to go toward a broad understanding that connection is a vital determinant of overall health, wellbeing and life expectancy. 28. What is overlooked by traditional health advice? A. Sufficient quality sleep. B. Balanced nutritional diet. C. Meaningful social bonds. D. Regular physical activity. 29. How is the harm of the lack of connection demonstrated? A. By citing expert opinions. B. By surveying isolated groups. C. By comparing mental conditions. D. By presenting statistical data. 30. What does the 2018 survey reveal? A. People ignore physical exercise. B. People undervalue social support. C. Smoking ranked third in death risk. D. Life expectancy falls worldwide. 31. Which statement best reflects the author’s main argument? A. A good rest cures all illness. B. A daily chat can outrun a pill. C. A healthy diet can replace hugs. D. A walk alone ensures a longer life. D This month, the Internet was flooded with amazing digital art portraits (肖像). Users uploaded their photographs to the app and then — for a small fee — it used AI to transform their pictures into, say, a magical warrior princess version of themselves, in no time at all. This year has seen a breakthrough for AI-driven image generators, which are “trained” on millions of pieces of image and text data got from publicly available content online. Anyone can now produce professional-looking images, without having any training in art or design themselves. Those working in the more cognitive creative industries have long felt that they had nothing to fear about automation. After all, how could a computer ever recreate the quality of a masterpiece by Leonardo da Vinci? Early images generated with these tools were full of blemishes, such as a lack of diversity in the data, which marked them as machine-made. But as the results have become more convincing, those image generators cause concern. Anyone inclined (倾向于) to regard the idea that AI can take over creative jobs as a rumor should know: it is already happening. These tools’ ability to create imagery in the style of specific artists is fun, but when it comes to living artists who have spent years developing their own distinctive style, this isn’t at all brilliant. Fantasy art illustrator Greg Rutkowski found that his name was one of the most popular prompts on the AI platforms. “The only thing that could at least stop feeding the algorithm (算法) is to stop posting your work on the Internet, which is impossible in our industry,” said Rutkowski. Some artists have been working to develop solutions. Among them are Berlin-based artists Mat Dryhurst and Holly Herndon. They have created a search function that anyone can use to see whether their work has been collected for LAION, which is used to train most AI image generators. Their organization, Spawning, is also developing another tool that would allow artists to set permissions on how their style and paintings can be used. Most artists believe that technology could open up possibilities for them to make better work, or at least to work more efficiently. “I see it less as a headache and more of an opportunity,” the UK-based illustrator Michelle Thompson said. “Like everything else, there will always be artists who can use the tools better.” 32. What do we know about AI-driven image generators? A. They are undergoing free trials. B. They provide restricted instant service. C. They are trained on vast numbers of online artworks. D. They assist non-professionals in taking better pictures. 33. What does the underlined word “blemishes” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Wonders. B. Coincidences. C. Comments. D. Shortcomings. 34. What do Greg Rutkowski’s words convey to us? A. AI is posing a threat to creative jobs. B. Artists’ works are falling behind those of AI. C. Artists’ rising to fame is a double-edged sword. D. AI is simplifying the working process of artists. 35. What is most artists’ attitude towards AI-driven image generators? A. Critical. B. Positive. C. Indifferent. D. Contradictory. 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。 People favor humor, as it lights up daily moments, eases awkwardness and makes every interaction warm and enjoyable. This magic of humor doesn’t just work in daily life; it also shines in the field of science, especially online. ____36____. Firstly, humor simplifies tough scientific knowledge. ____37____. For example, explaining AI in self-driving cars with a funny analogy about “machines learning like clumsy toddlers” makes abstract ideas easy for non-professional groups to understand. ____38____ Scientists sharing clever and humorous stories about laboratory experiments on social media often attract more interactions than dry academic posts. Additionally, humor humanizes scientists, as seen in popular science lectures where light-hearted jokes help audiences feel closer to researchers. ____39____ The hidden risks deserve our attention. If the content itself is untrue, humor can even replace facts, leading the audience to form wrong opinions about scientific knowledge just based on the amusing posts they see. Overusing sarcasm or negative humor also has the opposite effect, as it will quickly make scientists lose the public’s trust and damage their credibility. Proper humor use requires a balance between vivid expression and professional precision. It should neither overshadow the core scientific information nor be so shallow that it loses seriousness. ____40____ Scientists who master this balance can effectively narrow the divide with the public, making science more welcoming and popular. A. It is believed that humor needs to be used with great care in such communication. B. Overuse harms professionalism. C. It also boosts audience engagement effectively. D. It helps break the impression of scientists being cold and distant. E. A little humor can greatly enhance scientists’ communication effect. F. Humor in scientific communication is a double-edged sword, though. G. It’s a helper in making complex concepts understandable to ordinary people. 第三部分语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I attended a summer barbecue recently. As soon as I arrived, I found myself ____41____ there. While everyone else was in shorts, I was the only one wearing long pants. Why did I dress like that? Simple: I was not ____42____ about my legs. For years, I had ____43____ my weight. By the time I graduated from college, I weighed over 450 pounds. However, I didn’t give up and finally lost over 250 pounds. Of course, the journey came with its own ____44____: the stretch marks and loose skin. Even though I knew losing weight helped me feel freer, the old self-consciousness (自我意识) could ____45____ when I least expected it. It was at that barbecue that the weight of ____46____ returned. I caught myself wondering: If I wore shorts, would people be staring at my loose skin and the stretch marks on my legs? Suddenly, it felt like I was back with the “old me”, the one who always worried about other people’s ____47____. Then it hit me: ____48____ wasn’t protecting me. It was ____49____ my presence, fun and freedom. If I, who lost over 250 pounds and maintained the weight for two decades, can’t own my body ____50____, who will? My loose skin isn’t a sign of shame; it’s ____51____ of survival and transformation. If someone chooses to stare and criticize, it ____52____ who they are far more than who I am. So I’m committed to feeling ____53____ in future. I ____54____ that freedom, and so do you. Whether your journey is about weight or something else, start ____55____ yourself right now. 41. A. different B. practical C. energetic D. fashionable 42. A. anxious B. confident C. curious D. serious 43. A. thought over B. joked about C. struggled with D. kept off 44. A. difficulties B. reminders C. chances D. rewards 45. A. disappear B. benefit C. strengthen D. resurface 46. A. responsibility B. justice C. guilt D. shame 47. A. influence B. assistance C. judgment D. expectation 48. A. hiding B. explaining C. pretending D. dieting 49. A. celebrating B. stealing C. enhancing D. mixing 50. A. temporarily B. flexibly C. completely D. proudly 51. A. science B. wisdom C. proof D. lack 52. A. reflects B. ignores C. updates D. praises 53. A. perfect B. interested C. comfortable D. invisible 54. A. limit B. deserve C. regret D. doubt 55. A. accepting B. questioning C. challenging D. forgiving 第二节(共10小题;每小题1.5分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 ____56____ (found) in the Yuan Dynasty, Zhenjiawan village has lasted for more than seven centuries. Its 97 courtyards and 258 caves form the ____57____ (large) cave-dwelling (窑洞) village in northern Shaanxi Province. They are like the earth’s open eyes, ____58____ (represent) the traditional Chinese life philosophy of human-nature harmony. Stonemason Zhen has worked on building and repairing cave dwellings for four decades. Each time his team creates a cave dwelling, ____59____ is a process of conversing with nature.

The sky was clear, the sea was calm, and there was only a gentle breeze. Andrew and his son Jack had been fishing all morning but caught nothing. They were almost alone on the water — until they saw a small dot in the distance. As it came closer, they realized it was a boat, heading straight toward them! Andrew quickly turned their boat to avoid a crash. The boat sped past them. To their surprise, no one was on deck — though the engine was still running and music was playing loudly. “The captain must be below,” Andrew thought. But what if something was wrong? They decided to follow the boat. After trying to get the captain’s attention with shouts and an air horn, they grew worried. Maybe the captain was ill or injured. Jack jumped onto the boat and stopped the engine. He went down into the cabin, but came up looking puzzled. “No one is here,” he said. They called the Coast Guard to report a “man overboard.” Then, curious to find out what happened, they checked the boat’s GPS. They found that the captain had marked several fishing spots along the way, but the marks stopped suddenly a few miles away. Andrew and Jack decided to search the area. They began sailing in wide circles, hoping to find the missing person — but fearing the worst. What they didn’t know was that, not far away, a man was struggling in the water, losing hope. Earlier that day, the boat’s owner, Sam, had been fishing alone when he accidentally fell overboard. He tried to grab the boat but failed. Without a life jacket, he watched helplessly as his boat sailed away. Now he was tired and cold, trying to swim toward where he thought other boats might be. Just when Sam felt he could not go on, he saw a boat in the distance. It seemed to be moving in a strange way — going forward, then turning around. It was his only chance. He waved and shouted with all his strength. 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。 The boat turned and began moving steadily toward Sam. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Back on the boat, Sam could hardly believe he was safe. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 盐城外国语学校 2026 年春学期期中素质评估 高二年级英语学科练习 (试卷分值：150分考试时间：120分钟) 注意：本试卷分第I卷(选择题)和第Ⅱ卷(非选择题)两部分。两部分答案都做在答题卡上。 第一部分听力(共两节，满分30分) 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音结束后，你将有两分钟时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节(共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话读两遍。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What is the woman probably doing?

A 【解析】 【原文】Hi, everyone, and welcome to today’s Big Tire Bikes tour! This is the Berlin Highlights Tour, which means that we’ll be visiting all the big important sights. It’s a nice and relaxing ride around the city, taking in the Berlin Wall, the Reichstag and Museum Island, among others. The tour usually takes around six hours, including lunch. That means we should arrive at our final destination, the famous TV Tower, by about 5:00 p.m. Before we set off, let’s talk about safety. Do we have any Brits or Australians in the group? Please don’t be shy. Okay, the Green family. Great! But I need to remind you that here in Germany, we need to stick to the right-hand side of the road. It’s basic but important! Berlin is a bike-friendly city, so we’ll spend most of the tour on bike paths. However, there are places where we will need to cross traffic, so I need everybody to be aware of their surroundings. Never cycle through red lights and keep an eye out for cars turning right. Okay? Now, I’ve had a few people asking me about lunchtime arrangements, so let’s talk about it now ... 第二部分阅读(共两节，满分50分) 第一节：(共15小题;每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Most Walkable Places to See in Spring Whether you’re wandering the quiet streets of a town or uncovering the beauty of a historic neighborhood, walking allows you to experience a destination in its purest form. Here are some of the most walkable places to enjoy this spring. Lucca, Italy While Florence and Rome may attract more tourists, Lucca remains a cultural treasure in Tuscany that is well worth exploring. The city is famous for its well-preserved walls that once defended the historic city center. Walking along the tree-lined top of the walls, visitors can enjoy some of the finest views over the historic rooftops and the surrounding Tuscan countryside. Cape Town, South Africa Cape Town is a culturally diverse city with something for every traveler. The most walkable area is the V&A Waterfront, which is full of various shops, restaurants and bars. The views here are excellent: Visitors can see the sea on one side and the famous Table Mountain on the other. To see amazing sights from the peak, visitors can take a cable car (缆车) up the mountain from another part of the city. Knightsbridge, United Kingdom Knightsbridge is one of London’s richest and most walkable areas, where high-end living meets easy access. Walking through its beautiful streets, you shouldn’t miss the famous Harrods department store and the many old Victorian buildings around it. You can also spend time in the peaceful local parks to enjoy the scenery. Zurich, Switzerland Zurich combines old-world beauty with modern convenience, ranking among Europe’s best cities for walking. The Old Town has narrow, winding streets, ancient buildings and important historical sites. Walkers can relax in the city’s well-maintained parks or take pleasant paths along Lake Zurich, which can offer delightful walks with views of the distant mountains. 21. What is a special feature of Lucca’s city walls? A. They offer the best city views. B. They are the tallest in Tuscany. C. They serve the original defensive function. D. They have a path on top shaded by trees. 22. What can visitors do at the V&A Waterfront? A. Enjoy sea and peak views while dining. B. Visit historical sites along the coastline. C. Explore diverse dining and shopping. D. Ride a cable car up Table Mountain. 23. What do Knightsbridge and Zurich have in common? A. They are famous for shopping. B. They have large modern parks. C. They have historic architecture. D. They are located near mountains. 【答案】21. D 22. C 23. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了春季最适合步行的几个旅游胜地及其特色。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据Lucca, Italy部分中“Walking along the tree-lined top of the walls, visitors can enjoy some of the finest views over the historic rooftops and the surrounding Tuscan countryside.(沿着绿树成荫的城墙顶部行走，游客可以欣赏到历史悠久的屋顶和周围托斯卡纳乡村的美景。)”可知，卢卡城墙的特别之处在于顶部有一条绿树成荫的小路。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据Cape Town, South Africa部分中“The most walkable area is the V&A Waterfront, which is full of various shops, restaurants and bars.(最适合步行的区域是V&A海滨，那里有各种各样的商店、餐馆和酒吧。)”可知，游客在V&A海滨可以探索多样化的餐饮和购物。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据Knightsbridge, United Kingdom部分中“Walking through its beautiful streets, you shouldn’t miss the famous Harrods department store and the many old Victorian buildings around it.(漫步在它美丽的街道上，你不应该错过著名的哈罗德百货公司和周围许多古老的维多利亚式建筑。)”以及最后一段中“The Old Town has narrow, winding streets, ancient buildings and important historical sites.(老城区有狭窄蜿蜒的街道、古老的建筑和重要的历史遗迹。)”可知，二者的共同之处是它们都有历史建筑。 B In the summer of 2025, when a fire swept through the Miller family’s home, they lost almost everything. Among the lost items was a photograph — one that showed the family gathered around the Thanksgiving table years ago. It was not just a picture but a memory of a happy moment when everyone was together. James Miller felt that losing the photo was like losing a piece of their family story. Then he learned about a local artist named Elena Vance, who deeply cares about people’s suffering and shares in their pain, hoping to use art to help ease their sadness. She offered to help people like him by painting their lost memories — not from photographs, but from the descriptions they could give. Elena asked each family member to describe the scene in their own words. She gathered all these pieces of memory like putting together a puzzle. Using these stories, Elena began to paint. She did not try to copy a missing photo exactly. Instead, she wanted to express the feeling of that evening — the soft light, the happy faces and the sense of being together. She used warm colors and gentle brushwork to show not just people around a table, but a family connected by love. When the Miller family saw the finished painting, they were deeply moved. The painting did more than show a scene — it brought back the emotion, the warmth and the unity they had felt. Elena normally sells her artwork, but for families who had lost everything, she painted for free. “Personal income is not what matters; the key is that art can heal the human heart,” she explained. Elena has been painting for those who have lost their memories in the disaster. From people’s descriptions, beautiful scenes come to life on paper — family trips at sunset, starlit barbecue nights, a spring garden proposal, a child’s peaceful nap, and walking pets through flowers. Life’s beauty lives in these scenes. Our real treasures aren’t possessions but shared moments with loved ones. 24. What happened to James Miller in the summer of 2025? A. He left his childhood house. B. His house was burned down. C. He lost a beloved family member. D. His valuable painting went up in flames. 25. What did Elena focus on in the painting? A. The vividness of figures. B. The great details of the scene. C. The exact background of the story. D. The emotional atmosphere of the dinner. 26. Which of the following can best describe Elena? A. Flexible and creative. B. Sympathetic and selfless. C. Responsible and generous. D. Talented and knowledgeable. 27. What is a suitable title for the text? A. Happy Family Reunion: The Best Thanksgiving Ever B. Heal Broken Hearts: Painting Memories from Words C. Live in the Moment: Life Is Better with Loved Ones D. Inspiration from Nature: Rewarding Life of an Artist 【答案】24. B 25. D 26. B 27. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了艺术家Elena Vance通过绘画帮助火灾中失去回忆的家庭重拾美好记忆的故事。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“In the summer of 2025, when a fire swept through the Miller family’s home, they lost almost everything.(2025年夏天，一场大火席卷了米勒家，他们几乎失去了一切。)”可知，2025年夏天，James Miller的房子被烧毁了。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Instead, she wanted to express the feeling of that evening—the soft light, the happy faces and the sense of being together.(相反，她想表达的是那个晚上的感觉——柔和的灯光，幸福的面孔，以及在一起的感受。)”可知，Elena在画中关注的是晚餐的情感氛围。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Then he learned about a local artist named Elena Vance, who deeply cares about people’s suffering and shares in their pain, hoping to use art to help ease their sadness.(然后他了解到一位名叫Elena Vance的当地艺术家，她非常关心人们的苦难，分担他们的痛苦，希望用艺术来帮助他们缓解悲伤。)”以及第五段中“Elena normally sells her artwork, but for families who had lost everything, she painted for free.(Elena通常会出售她的艺术品，但对于失去了一切的家庭，她免费作画。)”可知，Elena有同情心且无私。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，尤其是结合第二段中“She offered to help people like him by painting their lost memories — not from photographs, but from the descriptions they could give.(她提出通过绘制他们失去的记忆来帮助像他这样的人——不是根据照片，而是根据他们能给出的描述。)”可知，本文主要讲述了艺术家Elena Vance通过绘画帮助火灾中失去回忆的家庭重拾美好记忆的故事，故“治愈破碎的心：用文字描绘记忆”最适合作文章标题。 C What do you do to be healthy? Let’s say you follow the advice of doctors, health blogs, and wellness influencers perfectly. You walk 10,000 steps a day. You get eight hours of quality sleep at night. You eat plenty of fresh vegetables and avoid processed foods. Your physical and mental health improve as a result — but only up to a point. Traditional health advice overlooks a vital element: human connection. Your relationships can determine how long you live, and your social interactions influence whether or not you will develop certain diseases like heart disease and depression. Health is not only physical or mental. It is also social. While physical health concerns the body and mental health the mind, social health centers on relationships. Being socially healthy requires establishing bonds, belonging to communities, and feeling supported, valued, and loved. Today, social health shows widespread decline. According to Gallup, 330 million adults around the globe suffer through weeks at a time without speaking to a single family member or friend, and 20% of all adults worldwide don’t have anyone to seek help from. This lack of connection is dangerous, increasing people’s risk of stroke (中风) by 32%, dementia (痴呆) by 50% and early death by 29%. Most people underestimate the importance of relationships for health. A 2018 survey in the US and UK found people perceived relational factors like social support as far less important for life expectancy than factors like smoking or exercise. However, in fact, researchers found social integration and social support were the number one and number two biggest predictors of risk of death. While the impact of factors like smoking and exercise are well known, we clearly have a long way to go toward a broad understanding that connection is a vital determinant of overall health, wellbeing and life expectancy. 28. What is overlooked by traditional health advice? A. Sufficient quality sleep. B. Balanced nutritional diet. C. Meaningful social bonds. D. Regular physical activity. 29. How is the harm of the lack of connection demonstrated? A. By citing expert opinions. B. By surveying isolated groups. C. By comparing mental conditions. D. By presenting statistical data. 30. What does the 2018 survey reveal? A. People ignore physical exercise. B. People undervalue social support. C. Smoking ranked third in death risk. D. Life expectancy falls worldwide. 31. Which statement best reflects the author’s main argument? A. A good rest cures all illness. B. A daily chat can outrun a pill. C. A healthy diet can replace hugs. D. A walk alone ensures a longer life. 【答案】28. C 29. D 30. B 31. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要论述了社交关系对健康的重要性，指出传统健康建议忽视了社交健康这一关键因素。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Traditional health advice overlooks a vital element: human connection.(传统的健康建议忽略了一个关键因素：人际联系)”可知，传统健康建议忽视了有意义的人际联系。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“This lack of connection is dangerous, increasing people’s risk of stroke (中风) by 32%, dementia (痴呆) by 50% and early death by 29%.(这种缺乏联系的情况很危险，会使人们患中风的风险增加32%，患痴呆的风险增加50%，早逝的风险增加29%)”可知，文章通过列举统计数据来展示缺乏联系的危害。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“A 2018 survey in the US and UK found people perceived relational factors like social support as far less important for life expectancy than factors like smoking or exercise.(2018年美英的一项调查发现，人们认为社交支持等关系因素对预期寿命的影响远不如吸烟或锻炼等因素重要)”可知，2018年的调查显示人们低估了社交支持的重要性。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据全文内容，尤其是第二段中“Health is not only physical or mental. It is also social.(健康不仅仅是身体或心理上的。它也是社交上的)”和最后一段中“we clearly have a long way to go toward a broad understanding that connection is a vital determinant of overall health, wellbeing and life expectancy(我们显然还有很长的路要走，才能广泛理解人际联系是整体健康、幸福和预期寿命的关键决定因素)”可知，文章主要强调社交关系对健康的重要性，甚至可能超过药物或锻炼的作用。“A daily chat can outrun a pill.(每天聊天胜过吃药)”最能反映作者的主要论点。 D This month, the Internet was flooded with amazing digital art portraits (肖像). Users uploaded their photographs to the app and then — for a small fee — it used AI to transform their pictures into, say, a magical warrior princess version of themselves, in no time at all. This year has seen a breakthrough for AI-driven image generators, which are “trained” on millions of pieces of image and text data got from publicly available content online. Anyone can now produce professional-looking images, without having any training in art or design themselves. Those working in the more cognitive creative industries have long felt that they had nothing to fear about automation. After all, how could a computer ever recreate the quality of a masterpiece by Leonardo da Vinci? Early images generated with these tools were full of blemishes, such as a lack of diversity in the data, which marked them as machine-made. But as the results have become more convincing, those image generators cause concern. Anyone inclined (倾向于) to regard the idea that AI can take over creative jobs as a rumor should know: it is already happening. These tools’ ability to create imagery in the style of specific artists is fun, but when it comes to living artists who have spent years developing their own distinctive style, this isn’t at all brilliant. Fantasy art illustrator Greg Rutkowski found that his name was one of the most popular prompts on the AI platforms. “The only thing that could at least stop feeding the algorithm (算法) is to stop posting your work on the Internet, which is impossible in our industry,” said Rutkowski. Some artists have been working to develop solutions. Among them are Berlin-based artists Mat Dryhurst and Holly Herndon. They have created a search function that anyone can use to see whether their work has been collected for LAION, which is used to train most AI image generators. Their organization, Spawning, is also developing another tool that would allow artists to set permissions on how their style and paintings can be used. Most artists believe that technology could open up possibilities for them to make better work, or at least to work more efficiently. “I see it less as a headache and more of an opportunity,” the UK-based illustrator Michelle Thompson said. “Like everything else, there will always be artists who can use the tools better.” 32. What do we know about AI-driven image generators? A. They are undergoing free trials. B. They provide restricted instant service. C. They are trained on vast numbers of online artworks. D. They assist non-professionals in taking better pictures. 33. What does the underlined word “blemishes” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Wonders. B. Coincidences. C. Comments. D. Shortcomings. 34. What do Greg Rutkowski’s words convey to us? A. AI is posing a threat to creative jobs. B. Artists’ works are falling behind those of AI. C. Artists’ rising to fame is a double-edged sword. D. AI is simplifying the working process of artists. 35. What is most artists’ attitude towards AI-driven image generators? A. Critical. B. Positive. C. Indifferent. D. Contradictory. 【答案】32. C 33. D 34. A 35. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了当下AI图像生成工具风靡网络，随着生成效果越来越逼真，其模仿在世艺术家风格、无偿取用作品训练算法的问题引发创作者担忧，部分艺术家开始研发维权工具，而大多数艺术家对 AI 技术持积极态度。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据原文第一段“This year has seen a breakthrough for AI-driven image generators, which are “trained” on millions of pieces of image and text data got from publicly available content online.(今年，人工智能图像生成器取得了突破性进展，它们依托从网络公开资源中获取的数百万条图像和文本数据进行训练。)”可知，人工智能图像生成器依托海量网络艺术相关作品数据进行训练。 【33题详解】 词句猜测题。根据原文第二段“Early images generated with these tools were full of blemishes, such as a lack of diversity in the data, which marked them as machine-made.(这些工具早期生成的图像存在诸多blemishes，例如数据缺乏多样性，这也让作品一眼就能被看出是机器生成的。)”可知，后文举例是AI早期作品存在的不足、缺陷，可推知blemishes意为 “缺点、瑕疵”。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据原文第三段““The only thing that could at least stop feeding the algorithm is to stop posting your work on the Internet, which is impossible in our industry,” said Rutkowski.(Rutkowski说：“唯一能阻止为算法提供素材的办法就是停止在网上发布作品，而这在我们行业根本行不通。”)”及“These tools’ ability to create imagery in the style of specific artists is fun, but when it comes to living artists who have spent years developing their own distinctive style, this isn’t at all brilliant. Fantasy art illustrator Greg Rutkowski found that his name was one of the most popular prompts on the AI platforms.(这类工具能够模仿特定艺术家的风格进行图像创作，这看似很有趣；但对于耗费多年心血形成个人独特风格的在世艺术家而言，这绝非好事。奇幻插画师格Greg Rutkowski发现，他的名字是各大AI平台上最热门的风格指令关键词之一。)”可知，AI随意借用他的画风来生成作品，不用付费、不经授权，Greg Rutkowski的话说明AI正在侵害艺术家权益，给创意类工作带来威胁。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据原文第五段“Most artists believe that technology could open up possibilities for them to make better work, or at least to work more efficiently.(大多数艺术家认为，这项技术能够为他们开拓创作新思路，创作出更好的作品，至少也能提升工作效率。)”可知，大多数艺术家对人工智能图像生成器持积极认可的态度。 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。 People favor humor, as it lights up daily moments, eases awkwardness and makes every interaction warm and enjoyable. This magic of humor doesn’t just work in daily life; it also shines in the field of science, especially online. ____36____. Firstly, humor simplifies tough scientific knowledge. ____37____. For example, explaining AI in self-driving cars with a funny analogy about “machines learning like clumsy toddlers” makes abstract ideas easy for non-professional groups to understand. ____38____ Scientists sharing clever and humorous stories about laboratory experiments on social media often attract more interactions than dry academic posts. Additionally, humor humanizes scientists, as seen in popular science lectures where light-hearted jokes help audiences feel closer to researchers. ____39____ The hidden risks deserve our attention. If the content itself is untrue, humor can even replace facts, leading the audience to form wrong opinions about scientific knowledge just based on the amusing posts they see. Overusing sarcasm or negative humor also has the opposite effect, as it will quickly make scientists lose the public’s trust and damage their credibility. Proper humor use requires a balance between vivid expression and professional precision. It should neither overshadow the core scientific information nor be so shallow that it loses seriousness. ____40____ Scientists who master this balance can effectively narrow the divide with the public, making science more welcoming and popular. A. It is believed that humor needs to be used with great care in such communication. B. Overuse harms professionalism. C. It also boosts audience engagement effectively. D. It helps break the impression of scientists being cold and distant. E. A little humor can greatly enhance scientists’ communication effect. F. Humor in scientific communication is a double-edged sword, though. G. It’s a helper in making complex concepts understandable to ordinary people. 【答案】36. E 37. G 38. C 39. F 40. B 【解析】 【导语】文章指出幽默能助力科学传播，可简化知识、提升参与度，但也存在潜在风险，科学传播中使用幽默需把握好平衡。 【36题详解】 由上文“This magic of humor doesn’t just work in daily life; it also shines in the field of science, especially online.(幽默的这种魔力不仅在日常生活中奏效，在科学领域也大放异彩，尤其是在网络上)”可知，前文指出幽默在科学领域的积极作用；E选项“A little humor can greatly enhance scientists’ communication effect.(一点幽默能极大地提升科学家的沟通效果)”承接上文的“shines in the field of science”，说明幽默对科学家沟通的正面影响，总起下文对幽默作用的具体阐述。 【37题详解】 由上文“Firstly, humor simplifies tough scientific knowledge.(首先，幽默能简化晦涩的科学知识)”可知，此处强调幽默对理解复杂科学知识的作用；G选项“It’s a helper in making complex concepts understandable to ordinary people.(它有助于让普通人理解复杂的概念)”对上文所说的作用进行进一步阐释，其中“making complex concepts understandable”与上文“simplifies tough scientific knowledge”相呼应，衔接紧密。 【38题详解】 下文“Scientists sharing clever and humorous stories about laboratory experiments on social media often attract more interactions than dry academic posts.(科学家们在社交媒体上分享实验室实验的趣味故事，往往比枯燥的学术帖子吸引更多互动)”运用具体事例说明幽默能提升观众的参与度，空格处应提出该观点，C选项“It also boosts audience engagement effectively.(它还能有效提高观众的参与度)”与段首句“humor simplifies tough scientific knowledge.(幽默简化了晦涩的科学知识。)”构成并列递进关系，引出下文的关于提升观众的参与度的具体阐释，其中“boosts audience engagement”与下文“attract more interactions”相呼应。 【39题详解】 由下文“The hidden risks deserve our attention.(其潜在的风险值得我们关注)”可知，此段转而讲述幽默在科学传播中的负面问题，空格处作为段首句，与上一段构成转折关系，起到转折过渡的作用，指出幽默有利也有弊；F选项“Humor in scientific communication is a double-edged sword, though.(不过，科学传播中的幽默是一把双刃剑)”承接上文对幽默积极作用的阐述，引出下文的弊端与风险的分析，形成转折。 【40题详解】 由上文“Proper humor use requires a balance between vivid expression and professional precision. It should neither overshadow the core scientific information nor be so shallow that it loses seriousness.(合理使用幽默需要在生动表达和专业严谨之间找到平衡。既不能掩盖核心的科学信息，也不能过于肤浅而失去严肃性)”可知，前文强调使用幽默的分寸；B选项“Overuse harms professionalism.(过度使用会损害专业性)”承接上文，指出不当使用的危害，符合语境，其中“Overuse”对应上文“neither... nor...”的不当使用情况，“harms professionalism”呼应“professional precision”，且为下文“掌握平衡拉近与公众距离”作反向铺垫。 第三部分语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I attended a summer barbecue recently.

The sky was clear, the sea was calm, and there was only a gentle breeze. Andrew and his son Jack had been fishing all morning but caught nothing. They were almost alone on the water — until they saw a small dot in the distance. As it came closer, they realized it was a boat, heading straight toward them! Andrew quickly turned their boat to avoid a crash. The boat sped past them. To their surprise, no one was on deck — though the engine was still running and music was playing loudly. “The captain must be below,” Andrew thought. But what if something was wrong? They decided to follow the boat. After trying to get the captain’s attention with shouts and an air horn, they grew worried. Maybe the captain was ill or injured. Jack jumped onto the boat and stopped the engine. He went down into the cabin, but came up looking puzzled. “No one is here,” he said. They called the Coast Guard to report a “man overboard.” Then, curious to find out what happened, they checked the boat’s GPS. They found that the captain had marked several fishing spots along the way, but the marks stopped suddenly a few miles away. Andrew and Jack decided to search the area. They began sailing in wide circles, hoping to find the missing person — but fearing the worst. What they didn’t know was that, not far away, a man was struggling in the water, losing hope. Earlier that day, the boat’s owner, Sam, had been fishing alone when he accidentally fell overboard. He tried to grab the boat but failed. Without a life jacket, he watched helplessly as his boat sailed away. Now he was tired and cold, trying to swim toward where he thought other boats might be. Just when Sam felt he could not go on, he saw a boat in the distance. It seemed to be moving in a strange way — going forward, then turning around. It was his only chance. He waved and shouted with all his strength. 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。 The boat turned and began moving steadily toward Sam. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Back on the boat, Sam could hardly believe he was safe. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 The boat turned and began moving steadily toward Sam. His heart pounded with a mix of hope and disbelief. Weak from exhaustion, he forced his arms to wave, shouting with what little strength remained. Two figures stood on the deck, leaning over the side. Soon, strong hands reached down, grasped his wrists, and pulled him out of the cold water. Shivering and breathing heavily, Sam lay on the familiar deck, looking up at the faces of two strangers. “Thank you,” he whispered, tears mixing with seawater on his face. Andrew wrapped a dry blanket around his shoulders while Jack handed him a bottle of water. In that moment, Sam felt an overwhelming relief wash over him. Back on the boat, Sam could hardly believe he was safe. He explained how he had slipped and fallen overboard, watching helplessly as his boat drifted away. Andrew smiled warmly and said, “We’re just glad we found you in time.” As they headed back to shore, Sam realized how lucky he was — not only to be alive, but to have been found by such kind and determined people. That evening, after reporting to the Coast Guard and ensuring Sam was fully recovered, Andrew and Jack drove him home. Before parting, Sam shook their hands firmly, his voice filled with emotion: “You didn’t just save my life. You gave me back my faith in people.” 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。Andrew父子钓鱼时发现一艘无人驾驶却正常行驶的船只。二人心生疑虑上前查看，船上空无一人，随即联系海岸警卫队并循着船的航线搜寻。原来船主Sam独自垂钓时意外落水，船只自行漂走，疲惫绝望之际，恰好发现搜寻而来的父子俩的船。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段句首可知，第一段可描写船只驶向Sam、Sam奋力呼救，最终被Andrew父子成功救上船并得到暖心照料的过程。 ②由第二段句首可知，第二段可描写Sam讲述意外落水的经过，父子二人暖心安慰，返程途中Sam心生感恩，事后二人送他回家，Sam由衷致谢重拾对人性的信任。 2.续写线索：船只驶向Sam——Sam奋力呼救 —— 被救上船获照料 ——Sam讲述落水缘由 —— 返程心生感慨 —— 送别致谢重拾人心信任 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①呼喊：shout/cry out ②抓住：grasp/seize/hold tightly 情绪类 ①希望与怀疑交织：a mix of hope and disbelief/a blend of hope and doubt ②幸运的：lucky/fortunate 【点睛】【高分句型1】He explained how he had slipped and fallen overboard, watching helplessly as his boat drifted away.
