Before coming to La Salle High School, Amelia Amand attended St. Agatha School in Portland, Oregon. “I decided to come to La Salle as a senior one student because the school has a good volleyball program I really love,” she said.
Volleyball is a big part of Amand’s life. She has been playing volleyball since the third grade. Amand now plays for La Salle’s school volleyball team. “I enjoy it because it’s a good way to reduce (减少) worry,” she said.
Volleyball takes up a lot of Amand’s free time outside of the classroom, and balancing (平衡) schoolwork with sports can be a challenge. “It can be arduous. You’ve just got to keep concentrated(专注),” she said.
In the future, Amand has a big goal. “I’d love to go into the medical field,” she said, explaining that this is something she has always wanted to do.
Here at La Salle, Amand wishes to be proud of her work. Two of her favorite classes are Honors English Ⅱ and Honors Chemistry. They are taught by Mr. Greg Larson and Mr. Matthew Owen. Amand explained that this was mainly because she can receive excellent instructions in the classes. However, she said that Honors Chemistry is one of her most difficult courses this year.
Outside of school, Amand enjoys hanging out with her friends and talking to them. She also likes spending time with her family. “They’re really supportive of everything, which is great,” Amand said. One of her favorite places to visit with them is Michigan. “I love traveling to Michigan because my family lives there, so it’s really nice to see everyone,” she said. Her suggestions for new students are “to get along well with your teachers and to do all your work on time”.
4. What played an important role in making Amand come to La Salle?
A. Her hobby. B. Her good grades.
C. Her responsibility. D. Her friends’ advice.
5. What does the underlined word “arduous” in paragraph 3 mean?

Copenhagen is a beautiful city of Denmark that attracts a lot of tourists, especially during the summer. Though tourism is great for the economy, it is also bad for the environment. Now tourists who take part in green activities like picking up rubbish, using public transport (交通), or biking around the city are rewarded (回报) with food and activities. This project is called CopenPay, whose purpose is to help reduce the environmental costs of tourism.
The project was introduced by Copenhagen’s official tourism organization to get tourists to act in an eco-friendlier way according to the Wonderful Copenhagen website. Though it is trust- based, some places may ask you to show a photo of you doing a green activity or a train ticket.
Though the largest environmental cost is the transportation to Copenhagen, especially if you fly or drive, the tourist board’s communications chief (旅游局通信主管) Rikke Holm Petersen said, “One of the things we can change is getting people to act in an eco-friendlier way at the destination.”
There are now 24 members in the program, reported Forbes, including museums. restaurants, and urban experiences for tourists to take part in. While there are several places offering free ice cream or coffee for taking public transport, there are other experiences that are related to Danish culture. Visitors to the National Gallery who bring plastic waste can take part in a workshop to turn the rubbish into a piece of art.
Tourists can help care for the gardens at the Blixen Museum for free admission. There are free tours at the Cisternerne underground art hall if you walk or bike to the place. You can also get a free lunch for volunteering at an urban farm.
While none of these activities will make a huge influence on the environment, it’ll change people’s thoughts and that may be the most important thing tourists can bring home from their vacation.
8. How can you get free food as a visitor to Copenhagen?
A. By sharing a car. B. By taking a bus to travel.
C. By helping old people. D. By taking care of wild animals.
9. What does the author want to show by mentioning Rikke Holm Petersen?
A. The difficulty of the project.
B. The success in the project.
C. The reason for the project.
D. The guess at the project.
10. What do we know about eco-friendly actions in Copenhagen?
A. They are praised on websites.
B. They take place mostly in museums.
C. They get rewarded in different ways.
D. They want to show Danish culture.
11. What is the importance of CopenPay according to the text?
A. Changing the local environment greatly.
B. Making tourists think highly of Copenhagen.
C. Helping get more money from local tourism.
D. Developing people’s environmental understanding.
D
AI models lack human senses like smell and touch, limiting their understanding of concepts such as flowers or humor. While advanced models show impressive language skills, their understanding nevertheless differs fundamentally from humans due to missing sensory experiences.
Researchers at the Ohio State University compared humans and AI models in understanding nearly 4,500 words. Both groups rated each word for a variety of aspects, such as the level of emotional arousal (唤醒) they bring to mind, or their links to senses and physical interaction with different parts of the body. It turns out that people and AI have a similar conceptual map of words that don't relate to interactions with the outside world, but differ greatly when words are linked to senses and physical actions.
The problem lies in AI models’ text-only training. Models trained on both images and text showed closer consistency with human responses. As researchers note: “Multi-modal training brings greater benefits than expected.” This suggests future AI models may need a robot body to gain such experience.
Philip Feldman at the University of Maryland says that giving AI models a robot body and exposing them to sensorimotor (感觉运动的) input would probably result in a jump in ability, but that we will have to be very careful about how this is done, given the risk of robots causing physical harm to people around them.
Avoiding such risks would mean adding limits to robot actions, or only using soft robots that can cause no harm for training, says Feldman — but that would have its own downsides.
“This is going to mess up their view of the world,” says Feldman. “One of the things they would learn is that you can bounce off (弹开) things, because they have little mass. Put such deep understanding that has to do with physical contact in a real robot with mass and you would have robots believing that they could just crash into each other at full speed.”
12. What does the first paragraph mainly tell us?
A. Sensory gaps limit AI models’ understanding.
B. Sensory training expands AI models’ capabilities.
C. AI models fail to understand complex human ideas.
D. AI models are better than humans at language skills.
13. How did researchers compare humans and AI models in the study?
A. By assessing their vocabulary.
B. By comparing their writing styles.
C. By testing their performance in a game.
D. By contrasting their interpretation of words.
14. What can be inferred about equipping AI models with a robot body?
A. It decreases their potential risks.
B. It boosts their learning competence.
C. It improves their ability to innovate.
D. It increases their chances of self-recovery.
15. What is Feldman mainly worried about regarding robots?
A. They may not move fast enough. B. They will lack basic emotions.
C. They might misjudge their strength. D. They could fail to follow orders.

Yesterday, my friend Alex and I noticed our next-door neighbor, Mrs. Thompson, looking unusually stressed as she walked in and out of her house. Her car was parked messily in the driveway, and she seemed to be in a hurry.
We decided to ask if she needed any help. As we walked over, she was struggling to carry a large box. I offered to take it from her, and she gratefully handed it to me. She explained that she was moving some of her late(已故的) husband’s things to a storage unit. Her voice trembled as she mentioned her husband, and I could see the pain in her eyes.
Over the next few hours, Alex and I helped her load more boxes into her car. We listened as she shared stories full of love about her husband and the life they had together. It was clear that this was a very emotional time for her. Mrs. Thompson thanked us for the timely help, and for a moment, her face seemed to relax a bit.
However, later in the day, things took a turn. As we were about to leave, we overheard Mrs. Thompson on the phone. She was arguing with someone about money. It seemed that there were some unexpected bills related to the storage unit, and she was worried about how she would pay them.
Alex immediately suggested that we pool our savings to help her, but I hesitated. I had been saving up for a new pair of sneakers(运动鞋) for a long time, and I wasn’t sure if I was ready to give that up. The sneakers were limited edition, and I had been eyeing them for months.
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。
I really wanted those sneakers, yet I knew Mrs. Thompson was in a tough spot.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
With hearts beating fast, we walked up to Mrs. Thompson with some savings.

Copenhagen is a beautiful city of Denmark that attracts a lot of tourists, especially during the summer. Though tourism is great for the economy, it is also bad for the environment. Now tourists who take part in green activities like picking up rubbish, using public transport (交通), or biking around the city are rewarded (回报) with food and activities. This project is called CopenPay, whose purpose is to help reduce the environmental costs of tourism.
The project was introduced by Copenhagen’s official tourism organization to get tourists to act in an eco-friendlier way according to the Wonderful Copenhagen website. Though it is trust- based, some places may ask you to show a photo of you doing a green activity or a train ticket.
Though the largest environmental cost is the transportation to Copenhagen, especially if you fly or drive, the tourist board’s communications chief (旅游局通信主管) Rikke Holm Petersen said, “One of the things we can change is getting people to act in an eco-friendlier way at the destination.”
There are now 24 members in the program, reported Forbes, including museums. restaurants, and urban experiences for tourists to take part in. While there are several places offering free ice cream or coffee for taking public transport, there are other experiences that are related to Danish culture. Visitors to the National Gallery who bring plastic waste can take part in a workshop to turn the rubbish into a piece of art.
Tourists can help care for the gardens at the Blixen Museum for free admission. There are free tours at the Cisternerne underground art hall if you walk or bike to the place. You can also get a free lunch for volunteering at an urban farm.
While none of these activities will make a huge influence on the environment, it’ll change people’s thoughts and that may be the most important thing tourists can bring home from their vacation.
8. How can you get free food as a visitor to Copenhagen?
A. By sharing a car. B. By taking a bus to travel.
C. By helping old people. D. By taking care of wild animals.
9. What does the author want to show by mentioning Rikke Holm Petersen?

AI models lack human senses like smell and touch, limiting their understanding of concepts such as flowers or humor. While advanced models show impressive language skills, their understanding nevertheless differs fundamentally from humans due to missing sensory experiences.
Researchers at the Ohio State University compared humans and AI models in understanding nearly 4,500 words. Both groups rated each word for a variety of aspects, such as the level of emotional arousal (唤醒) they bring to mind, or their links to senses and physical interaction with different parts of the body. It turns out that people and AI have a similar conceptual map of words that don't relate to interactions with the outside world, but differ greatly when words are linked to senses and physical actions.
The problem lies in AI models’ text-only training. Models trained on both images and text showed closer consistency with human responses. As researchers note: “Multi-modal training brings greater benefits than expected.” This suggests future AI models may need a robot body to gain such experience.
Philip Feldman at the University of Maryland says that giving AI models a robot body and exposing them to sensorimotor (感觉运动的) input would probably result in a jump in ability, but that we will have to be very careful about how this is done, given the risk of robots causing physical harm to people around them.
Avoiding such risks would mean adding limits to robot actions, or only using soft robots that can cause no harm for training, says Feldman — but that would have its own downsides.
“This is going to mess up their view of the world,” says Feldman. “One of the things they would learn is that you can bounce off (弹开) things, because they have little mass. Put such deep understanding that has to do with physical contact in a real robot with mass and you would have robots believing that they could just crash into each other at full speed.”
12. What does the first paragraph mainly tell us?
A. Sensory gaps limit AI models’ understanding.
B. Sensory training expands AI models’ capabilities.
C. AI models fail to understand complex human ideas.
D. AI models are better than humans at language skills.
13. How did researchers compare humans and AI models in the study?
A. By assessing their vocabulary.
B. By comparing their writing styles.
C. By testing their performance in a game.
D. By contrasting their interpretation of words.
14. What can be inferred about equipping AI models with a robot body?
A. It decreases their potential risks.
B. It boosts their learning competence.
C. It improves their ability to innovate.
D. It increases their chances of self-recovery.
15. What is Feldman mainly worried about regarding robots?
A. They may not move fast enough. B. They will lack basic emotions.
C. They might misjudge their strength. D. They could fail to follow orders.
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. B 15. C

【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Philip Feldman at the University of Maryland says that giving AI models a robot body and exposing them to sensorimotor (感觉运动的) input would probably result in a jump in ability, but that we will have to be very careful about how this is done, given the risk of robots causing physical harm to people around them.(马里兰大学的菲利普・费尔德曼表示,为人工智能模型配备实体机器人躯体,并让其接收感觉运动信号输入,或许能使其能力实现质的飞跃;但考虑到机器人可能会对周边人群造成人身伤害,我们在实施这一做法时必须格外谨慎。)”可知,为人工智能模型配备机器人身体能提升其学习能力。故选B项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“One of the things they would learn is that you can bounce off (弹开) things, because they have little mass. Put such deep understanding that has to do with physical contact in a real robot with mass and you would have robots believing that they could just crash into each other at full speed.(它们会学到的一点是,自身能从物体上弹开,因为其质量极小。若将这种与物理接触相关的深度认知,植入具备实际质量的实体机器人中,这些机器人便会误以为,自己即便全速相撞也完全无碍。)”可知,费尔德曼主要担心机器人会因学习到的错误认知而误判自身的力量。故选C项。

【导语】文章介绍了旅居挪威四十余年的英国太极先驱Hiley,她将太极视为认识自我、连接世界的途径,并分享了她的教学理念与经历。
【36题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意:Hiley原籍英国威尔士,已在挪威生活了四十多年。live(生活)是谓语动词,与主语Hiley之间是主动关系;结合时间状语for more than four decades可知,动作从过去持续到现在,应用现在完成时;主语为第三人称单数,谓语用单数形式has lived。
【37题详解】
考查形容词。句意:但对Hiley来说,太极远不止是一门武术或一种优雅的体育锻炼形式——它是认识自我、连接更广阔世界的途径。提示词修饰名词form,应用形容词形式elegant(优雅的)作定语。
【38题详解】
考查介词。句意:但对Hiley来说,太极远不止是一门武术或一种优雅的体育锻炼形式——它是认识自我、连接更广阔世界的途径。a path to...为固定搭配,意为“通往……的途径”,介词to表示方向。
【39题详解】
考查名词。句意:Hiley在20岁时第一次满怀期待地接触了太极,当时她在大学学习人体运动和艺术。提示词作介词with后宾语,用名词形式anticipation,意为“期待”,不可数名词。
【40题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:她对运动的学术好奇心,与对黑色艺术魅力的结合,最终引领她走向了太极。此处作后置定语,combine(结合)用非谓语形式,与其逻辑主语Her academic curiosity之间是被动关系,即“好奇心被结合”,应用过去分词表被动。
【41题详解】
考查状语从句的省略。句意:后来,在伦敦攻读研究生学位期间,她找到了一位太极老师。此处是while引导时间状语从句,完整结构为“while she was studying for a postgraduate’s degree...”,从句主语与主句主语一致且含be动词,符合状语从句省略条件,可省略主语she和be动词,保留现在分词studying。
【42题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:这激励她在经过一段时间的系统学习后在伦敦开办自己的太极学校。motivate sb. to do sth.为固定搭配,意为“激励某人做某事”,用不定式作宾语补足语。
【43题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:后来,Hiley应个人邀请移居挪威,在那里她建立了一所新的太极学校。此处引导非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词Norway,指地点,关系词在从句中作地点状语,应用关系副词where引导该从句。
【44题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:Hiley的太极教学方式是温和的,尤其是对初学者而言。可数名词beginner(初学者)作宾语,此处泛指所有初学者,应用复数形式beginners。
【45题详解】
考查冠词。句意:她向学生们提问,因为她意识到人们来学太极是为了寻求解决各种困难的方法——无论是身体上的、情感上的还是心理上的。a wide range of为固定搭配,意为“广泛的,各种各样的”,wide发音以辅音音素开头,用不定冠词a。

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Yesterday, my friend Alex and I noticed our next-door neighbor, Mrs. Thompson, looking unusually stressed as she walked in and out of her house. Her car was parked messily in the driveway, and she seemed to be in a hurry.
We decided to ask if she needed any help. As we walked over, she was struggling to carry a large box. I offered to take it from her, and she gratefully handed it to me. She explained that she was moving some of her late(已故的) husband’s things to a storage unit. Her voice trembled as she mentioned her husband, and I could see the pain in her eyes.
Over the next few hours, Alex and I helped her load more boxes into her car. We listened as she shared stories full of love about her husband and the life they had together. It was clear that this was a very emotional time for her. Mrs. Thompson thanked us for the timely help, and for a moment, her face seemed to relax a bit.
However, later in the day, things took a turn. As we were about to leave, we overheard Mrs. Thompson on the phone. She was arguing with someone about money. It seemed that there were some unexpected bills related to the storage unit, and she was worried about how she would pay them.
Alex immediately suggested that we pool our savings to help her, but I hesitated. I had been saving up for a new pair of sneakers(运动鞋) for a long time, and I wasn’t sure if I was ready to give that up. The sneakers were limited edition, and I had been eyeing them for months.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;

I really wanted those sneakers, yet I knew Mrs. Thompson was in a tough spot.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
With hearts beating fast, we walked up to Mrs. Thompson with some savings.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】参考范文
I really wanted those sneakers, yet I knew Mrs. Thompson was in a tough spot. Alex kept looking at me with begging eyes. I felt so torn, my mind full of a mix of guilt and longing. The picture of the cool sneakers kept appearing in my head, but so did Mrs. Thompson’s sad expression. After what seemed like a really long time of struggling inside myself, I took a deep breath and nodded at Alex. We quickly figured out how much money we could give without using up all our savings.
With hearts beating fast, we walked up to Mrs. Thompson with some savings. When we held out the money to her, her eyes opened wide in shock. We told her it was the least we could do and we hoped she could soon go through the hard time. Her thankfulness was really strong, and she gave us both a big hug. In that moment, I realized that the happiness of helping her was much greater than the short-lived excitement of getting those sneakers. The experience taught me that real value isn’t in things we own but in the relationships we make and the kindness we show.
