The regulatory barriers to new therapies. 2. Why are bacteriophages mentioned in the passage? A. To show they have already replaced antibiotics. B. To highlight a potential alternative to antibiotics. C. To prove they are more dangerous than bacteria. D. To indicate they cause drug resistance. 3. What does the WHO urge governments to do? A. Ban the use of antibiotics entirely. B. Focus only on cancer prevention. C. Invest in new treatments and reduce unnecessary antibiotic use. D. Regulate the price of new drugs. 【答案】1. B 2. B 3. C 【解析】 【导语】文章讲述了WHO警告耐药感染将成为全球最大健康威胁之一，呼吁各国加大投入、减少抗生素滥用，并积极开发替代疗法以应对这一危机。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据文中“In 2025, a new report by the World Health Organization (WHO) highlighted the growing crisis of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). The report warned that if no significant actions are taken, drug-resistant infections could cause 10 million deaths per year by 2050(2025 年，世界卫生组织发布的一份新报告着重指出抗菌药物耐药性危机正日益严峻。报告警示，若不采取重大应对举措，到2050年，耐药性感染每年或将造成1000万人死亡。)”可知，2025 年世卫组织报告主要警示耐药性感染带来的日益严重威胁。 【2题详解】 推理判断题。根据文中“Researchers are exploring alternative treatments, including bacteriophages — viruses that infect and kill bacteria(研究人员正在探索替代疗法，其中包括噬菌体——一种能够感染并杀灭细菌的病毒。)”可知，作者提到噬菌体是因为科研人员正在探索的抗生素潜在替代疗法。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据文中“The WHO urges governments to invest in new antibiotics and alternative therapies, as well as to restrict unnecessary antibiotic use in agriculture and medicine.(世界卫生组织呼吁各国政府投入研发新型抗生素与替代疗法，同时限制农业和医疗领域中不必要的抗生素滥用。)”可知，世卫组织呼吁各国政府投资新疗法研发并减少不必要的抗生素使用。 B Cultural heritage is not only about ancient buildings and artifacts; it also includes intangible heritage such as language, music, and rituals. In China, efforts to digitize the Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes have allowed global audiences to explore the caves online, reducing physical damage from tourism. Meanwhile, the government has invested in preserving the Tibetan epic “King Gesar” by recording performances of elderly bards. These projects demonstrate that innovation and tradition can work together — technology not only protects cultural treasures but also makes them more accessible to younger generations. 4. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Ancient buildings are more valuable than intangible heritage. B. Technology can help preserve and promote cultural heritage. C. Tourism does not damage cultural sites. D. Only governments should protect heritage. 5. What advantage does digitization of the Mogao Grottoes bring? A. It increases ticket sales. B. It reduces physical damage to the site. C. It raises the price of online tours. D. It limits access to the caves. 6. Which project is mentioned as an example of preserving intangible heritage? A. Building new museums. B. Digitizing the Mogao Grottoes. C. Recording the epic “King Gesar”. D. Training young archaeologists. 【答案】4. B 5. B 6. C 【解析】 【导语】文章以敦煌莫高窟数字化、录制藏族史诗《格萨尔王》为例，说明科技既能保护文化瑰宝、减少人为破坏，又能让传统文化走近大众、触达年轻一代，体现创新与传统可以相辅相成。 【4题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文中“These projects demonstrate that innovation and tradition can work together — technology not only protects cultural treasures but also makes them more accessible to younger generations.(这些项目证明，创新与传统可以相融共生——科技不仅守护了文化瑰宝，也让年轻一代更容易接触和了解它们。)”可知，文章主要讲述了讲述科技助力保护并传播文化遗产。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据文中“In China, efforts to digitize the Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes have allowed global audiences to explore the caves online, reducing physical damage from tourism.(中国对敦煌莫高窟开展数字化保护工作，让全球观众能够在线游览洞窟，同时减少了旅游参观对文物造成的实体破坏。)”可知，莫高窟数字化可以减少旅游对遗址的实体破坏。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据文中“Meanwhile, the government has invested in preserving the Tibetan epic “King Gesar” by recording performances of elderly bards.(与此同时，政府投入力量保护藏族史诗《格萨尔王》，通过录制民间老艺人的演唱表演来留存传承。)”可知，《格萨尔王》史诗属于非物质文化遗产，录制其演唱是典型保护方式。 C Artificial intelligence (AI) has made remarkable progress in natural language processing, with chatbots becoming increasingly sophisticated. However, experts caution that AI tools lack genuine understanding and often generate “hallucinations” — plausible but incorrect statements. A 2025 study showed that even advanced AI systems can be tricked into providing harmful advice. Therefore, while AI can assist in education and customer service, critical decisions should still involve human judgment. Developers are now working on “responsible AI” frameworks that include transparency, fairness, and accountability measures. 7. What does the term “hallucinations” refer to in the context of AI? A. AI’s ability to imagine new ideas. B. AI producing incorrect but believable information. C. AI refusing to answer questions. D. AI learning from human mistakes. 8. According to the passage, what should decision-makers do when using AI? A. Always rely on AI completely. B. Use AI only for entertainment. C. Combine AI suggestions with human oversight. D. Avoid using AI in critical fields. 9. What is the purpose of “responsible AI” frameworks? A. To make AI more expensive. B. To ensure AI systems are transparent and fair. C. To limit AI development. D. To replace human workers entirely. 【答案】7. B 8. C 9. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了人工智能在自然语言处理领域取得了显著进步，但同时指出其存在的重要局限性。 【7题详解】 词句猜测题。根据下文“plausible but incorrect statements(看似可信实则错误的表述)”可知，人工智能生成错误但看似可信的信息，由此可知，hallucinations意为“错误但看似可信的信息”。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文中“while AI can assist in education and customer service, critical decisions should still involve human judgment.(尽管人工智能可以在教育、客服领域提供辅助，但关键性决策仍需依靠人类判断。)”可知，决策者使用人工智能时应该把AI建议和人类监督判断相结合。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一句“Developers are now working on “responsible AI” frameworks that include transparency, fairness, and accountability measures.(目前开发者正在打造“负责任人工智能”体系，涵盖透明度、公平性与问责机制等规范准则。)”可知，“负责任的人工智能” 框架的目的是确保人工智能系统透明且公平。 D The concept of a “15-minute city” has gained traction in urban planning circles. In such a city, residents can access most daily necessities — work, school, shopping, healthcare, and recreation — within a 15-minute walk or bike ride from home. Paris has been a pioneer, transforming parking spaces into bike lanes and creating pedestrian zones. Critics argue that it may be difficult to implement in sprawling metropolises like Los Angeles, but proponents believe that with integrated public transport and mixed-use development, the model could reduce car dependency, lower carbon emissions, and improve quality of life. 10. What is a “15-minute city” according to the passage? A. A city where residents drive 15 minutes to work. B. A city where all facilities are within 15 minutes by walking or cycling. C. A city where public transport is free for 15 minutes. D. A city limited to 15 square kilometers. 11. Which city is mentioned as an early adopter of the concept? A. Los Angeles. B. Paris. C. Beijing. D. London. 12. What is a benefit of the 15-minute city model? A. Increased car usage. B. Higher carbon emissions. C. Reduced dependence on cars. D. Longer commuting time. 【答案】10. B 11. B 12. C 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了城市规划中的15分钟城市理念。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据文中“In such a city, residents can access most daily necessities — work, school, shopping, healthcare, and recreation — within a 15-minute walk or bike ride from home.(在这样的城市里，居民从家出发，步行或骑行15分钟范围内，就能抵达大部分日常生活所需的场所：上班、上学、购物、就医以及休闲娱乐一应俱全。)”可知，根据文章，“15分钟城市”指步行或骑行15分钟内可达各类生活设施。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据文中“Paris has been a pioneer, transforming parking spaces into bike lanes and creating pedestrian zones.(巴黎一直走在前列，把停车位改造成自行车道，并打造步行街区。)”可知，文中提到巴黎率先采用这个理念。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文中“the model could reduce car dependency, lower carbon emissions, and improve quality of life.(这种模式能够减少对私家车的依赖、降低碳排放，并提升生活品质。)”可知，15分钟城市模式的一大好处是减少对汽车的依赖。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 In the digital age, many people struggle with information overload. ____13____ They feel anxious and unable to focus. To cope, some adopt “digital minimalism” — cutting back on unnecessary screen time and notifications. This lifestyle encourages prioritizing offline activities such as reading, exercising, and face-to-face conversations. ____14____ For instance, you could set specific times to check email and social media, rather than responding to every alert. Another practical step is to delete apps that you seldom use but that constantly distract you. ____15____ Research shows that taking regular breaks from digital devices improves mental health and productivity. Moreover, creating tech-free zones in your home (e.g., the dining room) can strengthen family bonds. ____16____ It doesn’t mean giving up technology completely; instead, it means using it with intention. When you check your phone, ask yourself: “Is this necessary right now?” By being more mindful, you regain control over your time and attention. ____17____ A. This approach is different from total rejection of technology. B. Constantly checking notifications can lead to stress. C. The first step is to define your values and goals online. D. These small changes can significantly reduce digital stress. E. Digital minimalism requires you to stop using the internet entirely. F. It also helps you sleep better and maintain healthier relationships. G. You can start by reviewing your daily digital habits. 【答案】13. B 14. G 15. D 16. A 17. F 【解析】 【导语】文章介绍数字极简主义的生活方式、具体做法、好处及核心理念，倡导有节制、有目的地使用电子产品。 【13题详解】 根据上文“In the digital age, many people struggle with information overload.(在数字时代，许多人深受信息过载的困扰。)”和下文“They feel anxious and unable to focus.(他们感到焦虑，无法集中注意力。)”可知，上文讲很多人受信息过载困扰，下文说人们感到焦虑、无法集中注意力。B选项“频繁查看通知会引发压力。”承接上文信息过载，又引出后文焦虑、无法专注的情绪，符合语境。 【14题详解】 上文“To cope, some adopt “digital minimalism” — cutting back on unnecessary screen time and notifications.(为了应对这种状况，一些人开始践行“数字极简主义”——减少不必要的屏幕使用时间，关闭各类消息推送。)”和下文“For instance, you could set specific times to check email and social media, rather than responding to every alert.(例如，你可以固定特定时间查看邮件和社交媒体，而不是每收到一条提醒就立刻回复。)”可知，上文提出数字极简主义理念，下文立刻举例具体怎么做。G选项“你可以从审视自己日常的数字习惯开始。”起到总起下文举例的过渡作用，先讲从习惯入手，再举定时间看手机的例子。 【15题详解】 上文“For instance, you could set specific times to check email and social media, rather than responding to every alert. Another practical step is to delete apps that you seldom use but that constantly distract you.(例如，你可以固定特定时间查看邮件和社交媒体，而不是每收到一条提醒就立刻回复。另一个切实可行的做法是卸载那些很少使用、却总在分散你注意力的应用软件。)”和下文“Research shows that taking regular breaks from digital devices improves mental health and productivity.( 研究表明，定期远离电子设备有助于改善心理健康、提升做事效率。)”可知，上文列举两个实操方法，下文讲这类做法带来的益处。D选项“这些小小的改变能大幅减轻数字压力。”中“These small changes”指代前文两个做法，总结上文，衔接后文研究佐证好处。 【16题详解】 下文“It doesn’t mean giving up technology completely.(这并不意味着彻底放弃科技。)”解释不是完全放弃科技，空处需要先提出相关观点。A选项“这种方式和彻底拒绝科技是不一样的。”和下文同义呼应，先点明不是完全排斥，再进一步解释。 【17题详解】 上文“By being more mindful, you regain control over your time and attention.(保持专注能掌控时间和注意力。)”讲数字极简主义带来的一个好处，空处补充并列的其他好处。F选项“这也能帮你睡得更好、维系更健康的人际关系。”中It also helps承接前文好处，并列补充另一层益处。 第二部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 When I was 15, my family moved to a small town.

When his teacher announced a class presentation on environmental protection, his heart sank. He considered faking illness, but his best friend Lily encouraged him: “You care so much about the planet; just share your genuine thoughts.” On the presentation day, Marcus stood trembling before the class. He took a deep breath and began talking about plastic pollution. To his surprise, the words flowed. He even showed a short video he had edited showing sea turtles trapped in plastic. The class was silent; some eyes grew wet. After his speech, thunderous applause erupted. His teacher smiled and said, “Marcus, you delivered the most powerful speech today.” That evening, Marcus received an unexpected email: the principal invited him to speak at the upcoming school assembly about environmental action. Marcus felt both excited and terrified. “I can’t do it in front of the whole school!” he whispered to Lily. Lily replied, “You already did it once. You’ll do even better.” 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。 Paragraph 1: On the morning of the assembly, Marcus stood behind the curtain, his hands sweating. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: When he finished, the audience erupted into even louder applause than before. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 On the morning of the assembly, Marcus stood behind the curtain, his hands sweating. He looked at the huge audience below and felt a wave of panic. Just then, Lily appeared and gave him a thumbs-up. “Remember, you are doing this for the ocean, for the animals, for all of us,” she whispered. Marcus took a slow, deep breath and stepped onto the stage. When the spotlight hit him, he hesitated for a second, but then he saw Lily nodding in the front row. He began with the same video clip, his voice steadier than before. As he talked about small actions everyone could take — reusable bottles, avoiding plastic straws — he saw students nodding along. When he finished, the audience erupted into even louder applause than before. The principal shook his hand and said, “You have inspired us.” Classmates surrounded him, asking how they could help. Marcus felt a warmth spreading in his chest. He realized that fear is just a door; courage is the key. From that day forward, he became the founder of the school’s Green Action Club. Looking back, he knew it was not the applause that mattered most, but the impact he had started to make. Marcus learned that sharing your truth bravely not only overcomes personal fear but also sparks collective action. 【解析】 【导语】文章以人物为线索展开，讲述了害怕公开演讲的马库斯，在好友莉莉的鼓励下，勇敢完成了一堂关于环保的课堂演讲。他真情讲述塑料污染、播放相关视频，打动了全班师生并收获高度认可。随后校长邀请他在全校集会上做环保主题演讲，虽然他依旧紧张胆怯，但好友再次给予他鼓励，让他有机会突破自我、进一步挑战公开演讲。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写马库斯在演讲前紧张的心理，莉莉的鼓励以及演讲的经过。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写演讲结束后众人的反应以及马库斯的感悟。 2.续写线索：感到紧张——莉莉鼓励——演讲经过——得到称赞——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①出现：appear/turn up ②帮助：help/assist 情绪类 ①勇敢地：bravely/courageously ②害怕：fear/dread 【点睛】[高分句型1] Classmates surrounded him, asking how they could help.

Meanwhile, the government has invested in preserving the Tibetan epic “King Gesar” by recording performances of elderly bards. These projects demonstrate that innovation and tradition can work together — technology not only protects cultural treasures but also makes them more accessible to younger generations. 4. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Ancient buildings are more valuable than intangible heritage. B. Technology can help preserve and promote cultural heritage. C. Tourism does not damage cultural sites. D. Only governments should protect heritage. 5. What advantage does digitization of the Mogao Grottoes bring? A. It increases ticket sales. B. It reduces physical damage to the site. C. It raises the price of online tours. D. It limits access to the caves. 6. Which project is mentioned as an example of preserving intangible heritage? A. Building new museums. B. Digitizing the Mogao Grottoes. C. Recording the epic “King Gesar”. D. Training young archaeologists. C Artificial intelligence (AI) has made remarkable progress in natural language processing, with chatbots becoming increasingly sophisticated. However, experts caution that AI tools lack genuine understanding and often generate “hallucinations” — plausible but incorrect statements. A 2025 study showed that even advanced AI systems can be tricked into providing harmful advice. Therefore, while AI can assist in education and customer service, critical decisions should still involve human judgment. Developers are now working on “responsible AI” frameworks that include transparency, fairness, and accountability measures. 7. What does the term “hallucinations” refer to in the context of AI? A. AI’s ability to imagine new ideas. B. AI producing incorrect but believable information. C. AI refusing to answer questions. D. AI learning from human mistakes. 8. According to the passage, what should decision-makers do when using AI? A. Always rely on AI completely. B. Use AI only for entertainment. C. Combine AI suggestions with human oversight. D. Avoid using AI in critical fields. 9. What is the purpose of “responsible AI” frameworks? A. To make AI more expensive. B. To ensure AI systems are transparent and fair. C. To limit AI development. D. To replace human workers entirely. D The concept of a “15-minute city” has gained traction in urban planning circles. In such a city, residents can access most daily necessities — work, school, shopping, healthcare, and recreation — within a 15-minute walk or bike ride from home. Paris has been a pioneer, transforming parking spaces into bike lanes and creating pedestrian zones. Critics argue that it may be difficult to implement in sprawling metropolises like Los Angeles, but proponents believe that with integrated public transport and mixed-use development, the model could reduce car dependency, lower carbon emissions, and improve quality of life. 10. What is a “15-minute city” according to the passage? A. A city where residents drive 15 minutes to work. B. A city where all facilities are within 15 minutes by walking or cycling. C. A city where public transport is free for 15 minutes. D. A city limited to 15 square kilometers. 11. Which city is mentioned as an early adopter of the concept? A. Los Angeles. B. Paris. C. Beijing. D. London. 12. What is a benefit of the 15-minute city model? A. Increased car usage. B. Higher carbon emissions. C. Reduced dependence on cars. D. Longer commuting time. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 In the digital age, many people struggle with information overload. ____13____ They feel anxious and unable to focus.

He took a deep breath and began talking about plastic pollution. To his surprise, the words flowed. He even showed a short video he had edited showing sea turtles trapped in plastic. The class was silent; some eyes grew wet. After his speech, thunderous applause erupted. His teacher smiled and said, “Marcus, you delivered the most powerful speech today.” That evening, Marcus received an unexpected email: the principal invited him to speak at the upcoming school assembly about environmental action.
