SMI includes some disabling disorders, such as schizophrenia-spectrum disorders, bipolar disorder and treatment-resistant depression. Holidays can be especially painful, no matter whether you keep in touch with your loved one or stay away to protect your own mental health. You are not alone in this, as many people have similar experiences. Supporting a loved one with SMI brings chronic and acute stress, which can cause a special kind of burnout. It requires you to stay highly alert to possible crises, and it is terrifying when those crises happen. In fact, loved ones with SMI are more likely to face hardships like substance use disorders, homelessness and major health problems. What’s worse, dealing with these relationships often leads to isolation. You may grieve for loved ones who are physically present but not always mentally there. It’s easier to explain a physical illness to others, but most people who haven’t experienced SMI can’t understand its effects. Friends may try to help by solving problems, but what you really need is to be seen and heard, since these problems are rarely solvable. Here are some practical suggestions to help you take care of yourself. 1. What can we know about SMI from the passage? A. It only affects parents of young people. B. It has nothing to do with one’s physical health. C. It can be easily cured with proper treatment. D. It includes some serious and disabling disorders. 2. Why do people supporting loved ones with SMI often feel isolated? A. They are too busy to make friends. B. Their loved ones refuse to communicate with them. C. Others can hardly understand the effects of SMI. D. They are ashamed of their loved ones’ illness. 3. What do people supporting loved ones with SMI really need? A. Practical help to solve all their problems. B. Others’ understanding and listening. C. More money to treat their loved ones’ illness. D. Advice on how to stay away from their loved ones. 【答案】1. D 2. C 3. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍的是患有严重精神疾病（SMI）的亲人给照顾者带来的压力和挑战，以及照顾者面临的心理困境。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“SMI includes some disabling disorders, such as schizophrenia-spectrum disorders, bipolar disorder and treatment-resistant depression. (SMI包括一些致残性疾病，如精神分裂症谱系障碍、双相情感障碍和难治性抑郁症)”可知，SMI包含一些严重且致残的疾病。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“It’s easier to explain a physical illness to others, but most people who haven’t experienced SMI can’t understand its effects. (向他人解释身体疾病更容易，但大多数没有经历过SMI的人无法理解其影响)”可知，照顾患有SMI亲人的人常常感到孤立，是因为其他人很难理解SMI的影响。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Friends may try to help by solving problems, but what you really need is to be seen and heard, since these problems are rarely solvable. (朋友们可能会试图通过解决问题来提供帮助，但你真正需要的是被看见和被倾听，因为这些问题很少能被解决)”可知，照顾患有SMI亲人的人真正需要的是他人的理解和倾听。 B Recently, many people have been discussing a possible “white-collar blood bath” in the near future, where artificial intelligence (AI) programs replace many college-educated workers. Dario Amodei, CEO of Anthropic, predicts that half of entry-level jobs in law, consulting, and finance could disappear in a few years. Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta, also believes AI will replace many of Meta’s programmers within the next year or two. However, optimists disagree. They think AI will not replace workers but will instead serve as a tool to make them more productive. Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia, argues, “You’re not going to lose your job to AI, but you’re going to lose your job to someone who uses AI.” According to the author of this passage, both sides make the same mistake. They treat the question as one of fate rather than choice. Instead of asking which future is coming, we should ask which future we want: one where humans are replaced or one where humans are only augmented (enhanced)? The author believes that the answer lies in designing AI that works together with humans, not systems that replace us. Employers who adopt AI should also choose programs that augment rather than replace. The difference between augmentation and replacement can be subtle. The key question is whether the tool improves our abilities while still leaving us in control. As Steve Jobs once said, a computer can be “a bicycle of the mind.” For example, GitHub offers an AI tool called Copilot. When a programmer writes a line of code, Copilot suggests the next line, similar to the autocomplete feature in texting. This increases efficiency and sparks new ideas while keeping the human in control. Another example is AI technology that helps radiologists (doctors who examine medical images). It refines images, automates routine tasks, and flags potential problems. These tools make medical professionals better at their jobs rather than replacing them. The author also warns about a phenomenon called “model collapse.” If AI systems are trained using data produced by other AI, the quality of their outputs can quickly degrade. For instance, fully autonomous AI “journalists” posting online would gradually pollute the data supply. This problem could be managed by humans, but if left unmanaged, it would undermine any gains in productivity. In a classic 1960 paper, computer scientist J.C.R. Licklider wrote that the goal of computing should be “man-computer symbiosis.” The author agrees, concluding that the wholesale replacement of human work makes for good science fiction but a bad future. 4. According to the passage, what is the fundamental error made by both optimists and pessimists in the debate about AI replacing white-collar workers? A. They treat the future impact of AI as predetermined rather than a matter of human choice. B. They fail to recognize the speed at which AI technology is advancing. C. They underestimate the potential of AI to augment human capabilities. D. They overestimate the current capabilities of AI in performing complex tasks. 5. The author uses the examples of Copilot and AI technology assisting radiologists primarily to illustrate ________. A. how AI can perform tasks faster and more accurately than humans. B. the practical benefits of AI in automating routine and repetitive jobs. C. the concept of AI augmentation, where humans remain in control and benefit from AI assistance. D. the potential risks of relying too heavily on AI in critical professions like medicine and programming 6. The author mentions the concept of “model collapse” to argue that ________. A. AI systems should be strictly regulated to prevent job losses. B. maximizing efficiency and productivity should be the top priority. C. AI systems should be fully autonomous to avoid human errors. D. AI should be designed to work with humans rather than replace them. 7. What is the author’s main purpose in writing this passage? A. To argue that humans should stay in control of AI systems. B. To compare the predictions of different tech CEOs. C. To predict which industries will be most affected by AI. D. To prove that AI will eventually replace all white-collar workers. 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. D 7. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了人们对于人工智能是否会取代白领工作的不同看法，作者指出双方存在共同误区，倡导打造助力人类能力提升、与人协同合作而非取代人类的人工智能。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据原文第三段“According to the author of this passage, both sides make the same mistake. They treat the question as one of fate rather than choice.(文章作者认为，双方都犯了同一个错误，他们把这个问题看作是命中注定而非可以自主选择的事情。)”可知，双方的根本错误是将人工智能未来的影响视作既定结果，而非人类可以抉择的事情。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据原文第五段“The key question is whether the tool improves our abilities while still leaving us in control.(关键问题在于这类工具能否在提升我们能力的同时，依旧让人类掌握主导权。)” 以及“For example, GitHub offers an AI tool called Copilot. When a programmer writes a line of code, Copilot suggests the next line, similar to the autocomplete feature in texting.(例如，代码托管平台GitHub推出了一款名为代码助手的人工智能工具。程序员编写一行代码时，它会自动推荐下一行代码，和发短信时的自动补全功能类似。)”和第六段相关举例“Another example is AI technology that helps radiologists (doctors who examine medical images).(另一个例子是辅助放射科医师（查看医学影像的医师）工作的人工智能技术。)”可知，作者列举这两个例子是为了阐释人工智能赋能增效这一理念，即人类掌握主导权并借助人工智能获得助力。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据原文第七段“The author also warns about a phenomenon called “model collapse.” If AI systems are trained using data produced by other AI, the quality of their outputs can quickly degrade.(作者还警示了一种名为模型崩塌的现象。如果人工智能系统使用其他人工智能生成的数据进行训练，其输出内容的质量会迅速下降。)”及“This problem could be managed by humans, but if left unmanaged, it would undermine any gains in productivity.(这一问题可由人为管控解决，但若放任不管，将会抵消所有效率提升带来的益处。)”可知，作者提及模型崩塌这一现象，是为了论证人工智能应当被设计成与人类协作共事，而非彻底取代人类。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据原文第三段“According to the author of this passage, both sides make the same mistake. They treat the question as one of fate rather than choice.(文章作者认为，双方都犯了同一个错误，他们把这个问题看作是命中注定而非可以自主选择的事情。)”及最后一段“The author agrees, concluding that the wholesale replacement of human work makes for good science fiction but a bad future.(作者对此表示认同，并总结道：全面取代人类工作只适合出现在科幻作品里，绝非理想的未来。)”等内容可知，作者阐述各类观点与实例，最终表明立场，写作目的是主张人类应当始终掌握人工智能系统的主导权，实现人机协同发展。 C Warner Bros Discovery (WBD) plans to reject the latest takeover proposal from Paramount, even after billionaire Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison agreed to personally backstop the $108bn hostile bid. According to people familiar with the matter, WBD’s board still thinks the $83bn deal it agreed with Netflix in early December is better than Paramount’s proposal, though they cautioned that WBD had not made a final decision. The board’s discussions happen at a time when Netflix and Paramount are competing to take over one of Hollywood’s most famous studios and streaming companies. Paramount made a hostile bid for WBD on December 8, just days after Netflix agreed to buy the group. WBD later turned down that offer, saying it was worse than Netflix’s deal and risky because it was not guaranteed by Ellison’s personal fortune. On December 22, Paramount announced that Ellison had agreed to provide an “irrevocable personal guarantee” covering $40.4bn of equity financing for its $108bn bid, which is led by his son David Ellison. Paramount also offered to raise the break fee to $5.8bn (up from $5bn) if regulators block the transaction, matching Netflix’s promise if the deal fails for antitrust reasons. However, Paramount did not increase its offer price, keeping it at $30 a share in cash to buy the entire company, including legacy television and cable assets like CNN, TNT and Discovery Channel. In contrast, the Netflix deal would involve splitting off those legacy assets into an independent company. A person briefed on the matter said WBD’s board wants Paramount to raise its bid to start new negotiations. The directors feel Paramount’s changes are not enough to end its deal with Netflix, which would require paying a $2.8bn break fee to the streaming company. A person close to Paramount said last week that its revised offer was to push WBD back to the negotiating table, adding that Paramount would be willing to increase the price if WBD shows “goodwill”. Paramount has turned directly to WBD’s shareholders for support. WBD shareholders now have until January 21 to tender their shares, an extension from the previous January 8 deadline. Both WBD and Paramount declined to comment. CNBC was the first to report WBD’s plan to reject the new offer. 8. Why does WBD plan to reject Paramount’s latest takeover proposal? A. It has already signed a formal deal with Netflix. B. It thinks Netflix’s deal is better than Paramount’s. C. Larry Ellison’s personal guarantee is not reliable. D. Paramount’s bid price is much lower than Netflix’s. 9. What did Paramount do to improve its takeover proposal? A. It raised the offer price to $35 a share. B. It got rid of the break fee for regulatory blocks. C. It got Larry Ellison’s personal guarantee for financing. D. It agreed to split off WBD’s legacy assets. 10. Where is this passage most probably from? A. Novel B. Newspaper C. Textbook D. Dictionary 11. What is the main purpose of this passage? A. To explain why WBD rejected Paramount’s first bid. B. To report the competition between Netflix and Paramount for WBD. C. To introduce the assets of WBD and Paramount. D. To analyze the risks of Hollywood’s takeover deals. 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. B 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要报道华纳兄弟探索公司拟拒绝派拉蒙最新收购提案，对比其与奈飞收购方案的优劣及双方的博弈举措。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“According to people familiar with the matter, WBD’s board still thinks the $83bn deal it agreed with Netflix in early December is better than Paramount’s proposal, though they cautioned that WBD had not made a final decision. (据知情人士透露，尽管华纳兄弟探索公司尚未做出最终决定，但其董事会仍认为，公司12月初与奈飞达成的830亿美元交易优于派拉蒙的收购提案。)”可知，华纳兄弟探索公司计划拒绝派拉蒙提案的原因是其认为奈飞的交易方案更好。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“On December 22, Paramount announced that Ellison had agreed to provide an “irrevocable personal guarantee” covering $40.4bn of equity financing for its $108bn bid, which is led by his son David Ellison. (12月22日，派拉蒙宣布，埃里森已同意为其由儿子戴维·埃里森主导的1080亿美元收购要约，提供404亿美元股权融资的“不可撤销个人担保”。)”可知，派拉蒙为优化收购提案，获得了拉里·埃里森的个人融资担保。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，并结合最后一段中“CNBC was the first to report WBD’s plan to reject the new offer. (CNBC率先报道了华纳兄弟探索公司拒绝这份新收购提议的计划。)”可知，文章实时报道企业收购的商业动态、最新交易进展、各方举措及知情人士消息，内容时效性强、客观真实，符合新闻报道的文体特征，因此最有可能来自报纸。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，并结合第一段“Warner Bros Discovery (WBD) plans to reject the latest takeover proposal from Paramount, even after billionaire Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison agreed to personally backstop the $108bn hostile bid. According to people familiar with the matter, WBD’s board still thinks the $83bn deal it agreed with Netflix in early December is better than Paramount’s proposal, though they cautioned that WBD had not made a final decision. (华纳兄弟探索公司计划拒绝派拉蒙最新的收购提案，即便Oracle联合创始人、亿万富翁拉里・埃里森已同意为这笔1080亿美元的敌意收购提供个人担保。据知情人士透露，尽管华纳兄弟探索公司尚未做出最终决定，但其董事会仍认为，公司12月初与奈飞达成的830亿美元交易优于派拉蒙的收购提案。)”可知，文章主要讲述奈飞与派拉蒙争相收购华纳兄弟探索公司，双方不断优化收购方案，华纳兄弟探索公司权衡对比、拒绝派拉蒙新提案的商业竞争事件。因此，本文的核心目的报道这场收购竞争。 D Technology companies are pouring billions of dollars into quantum computing, despite the technology still being years away from practical applications. Building a computer that harnesses the unusual properties of quantum mechanics has been an idea since the 1980s, but in the last couple of decades, scientists have made significant strides in building large-scale devices. Now, tech giants and well-funded startups have invested heavily and created several quantum machines and quantum processing units (QPUs). In theory, quantum computers could solve problems beyond even the most powerful classical computer. However, they need to become much larger and more reliable first. Once they do, they may crack unsolvable challenges in chemistry, physics, materials science and machine learning. “It’s not just like a fast classical computer; this is a completely different paradigm,” said Norbert Lütkenhaus from the University of Waterloo. The most fundamental building block of a quantum computer is the qubit, which is comparable to a bit in a classical computer but can represent both 0 and 1 simultaneously. Today’s largest quantum computers have just crossed the 1,000 qubit mark, but most have only a few tens or hundreds. They are far more error-prone due to quantum states’ extreme sensitivity to external noise, making it hard to run large quantum programs for practical use. William Oliver from MIT noted that today’s quantum computers are used to learn how to make larger ones and how to use them. Building larger processors helps test quantum error-correction schemes, which involve spreading quantum information over multiple physical qubits to create a more resilient “logical qubit.” Recent breakthroughs suggest fault-tolerant quantum computing might be closer than expected, though scaling up to millions of qubits will take time. The power of quantum computing lies in superposition, which allows a quantum system to occupy multiple states at once. This lets qubits represent all potential solutions to a problem; incorrect answers are suppressed and correct ones enhanced. This makes it possible to tackle problems too vast for classical computers, especially in simulating physical systems governed by quantum mechanics. This could bring breakthroughs in battery technology, superconductors, catalysts and pharmaceuticals. Quantum computers also have downsides. With enough qubits, an algorithm could crack much of today’s internet encryption, but new “post-quantum” encryption standards have been released to address this. Other applications, such as optimization (e.g., traffic flows, delivery routes) and machine learning, are still speculative. Most quantum algorithms offer less than exponential speed-ups, and translating classical data into quantum states is slow, eating into computational advantages. Experts agree quantum computing is still in early days. The field is still developing basic algorithm “primitives,” and companies should focus on solving generic problems first rather than specific applications too early. 12. What can we learn about today’s quantum computers from the passage? A. They have been widely used in practical fields. B. Most of them have more than 1 000 qubits. C. They are mainly used to improve quantum technology itself. D. They are as reliable as classical computers. 13. What does the underlined word “paradigm” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Method. B. Trend. C. Idea. D. System. 14. Why is simulating physical systems a suitable task for quantum computers? A. They operate based on the same principles as physical systems. B. They can handle all kinds of complex problems quickly. C. They are less affected by external noise than classical computers. D. They can store more data about physical systems. 15. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Quantum computing is promising but still faces challenges. B. Tech companies are competing to develop quantum computers. C. Quantum computing has already changed many industries. D. Experts disagree on the future of quantum computing. 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. A 15. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了量子计算机的研发现状、工作原理、发展潜力，同时点明其目前存在诸多短板与发展难题，指出量子计算前景广阔但仍处于发展初期。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据原文第四段“William Oliver from MIT noted that today’s quantum computers are used to learn how to make larger ones and how to use them.(麻省理工学院的William Oliver指出，如今的量子计算机被用来研究如何制造更大的量子计算机以及如何使用它们。)”可知，如今的量子计算机主要用于完善量子相关技术本身。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据原文第二段“It’s not just like a fast classical computer; this is a completely different paradigm (它不只是一台提速的经典计算机，而是一套全然不同的paradigm)”及“Once they do, they may crack unsolvable challenges in chemistry, physics, materials science and machine learning.(一旦实现这一目标，它们便有望攻克化学、物理学、材料科学以及机器学习领域中诸多以往无解的难题。)”可知，量子计算机不止能提高计算速度，还有望解决众多领域的难题，说明量子计算机采用了全然不同的运作模式，故paradigm此处意为体系、运作模式。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据原文第五段“This makes it possible to tackle problems too vast for classical computers, especially in simulating physical systems governed by quantum mechanics.(这使得它能够解决经典计算机难以应对的繁杂问题，尤其适合模拟遵循量子力学规律的物理系统。)”可知，量子计算机和这类物理系统依托相同原理运行，因此十分适配该项工作。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据原文第二段“Once they do, they may crack unsolvable challenges in chemistry, physics, materials science and machine learning.(一旦实现这一目标，它们便有望攻克化学、物理学、材料科学以及机器学习领域中诸多以往无解的难题。)”及第六段“Quantum computers also have downsides.(量子计算机也存在弊端。)”等内容可知，全文既讲述了量子计算机巨大的发展潜力与广阔应用前景，又阐述了其存在运算易出错、规模不足、存在安全隐患、部分应用尚不明确等诸多发展难题，由此可知文章主旨为：量子计算前景大好但依旧面临诸多挑战。 第二节 本题共5小题，每小题2.5分，共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。 In the realm of organizational psychology, the focus has often been on the relationship between employees and their managers. We routinely ask questions like, “Is the boss fair?” and “Does the supervisor listen?” ___16___ As modern workplaces evolve to become flatter and more collaborative, a new form of fairness is emerging as a critical driver of success: peer justice. ___17___ Peer justice refers to the perceived fairness of the treatment that employees receive from their coworkers, rather than from formal authorities. While traditional organizational justice focuses on supervisors and hierarchical relationships, peer justice emphasizes the horizontal connections that shape our daily work experiences. Peer justice manifests in several key dimensions. ___18___ Research indicates that peer justice is highly dynamic; it is not a static “vibe” but fluctuates based on daily interactions. In fact, one study found that about 70% of the variance in peer justice perceptions occurs within the same individual from day to day . You might assume that as long as the boss is fair, the team will thrive. ___19___ Peer justice has a unique impact on performance that even the best manager cannot replicate. When peer justice is lacking, the consequences can be detrimental to an organization. ___20___ Creating a culture of peer fairness requires more than just policies; it necessitates a fundamental shift in leadership and team dynamics. The fairness that exists between peers may be the most crucial factor in your organization’s success. A. This emphasizes the importance of cultivating a positive workplace environment where fairness is consistently practiced. B. However, this focus on the boss-employee relationship is no longer sufficient. C. So what exactly is peer justice, and why does it matter for modern workplaces? D. These include respect, equal support, and fair distribution of work among teammates. E. Yet peer justice is often overlooked when evaluating team performance and organizational health. F. However, peer justice plays a more important role in team success than many people realize. G. How can organizations foster peer justice to unlock their teams’ full potential? 【答案】16. B 17. C 18. D 19. F 20. G 【解析】 【导语】本文聚焦组织心理学领域，指出以往研究多关注员工与管理者的关系，而随着现代职场向扁平化、协作化发展，同辈公平已成为职场成功的关键因素，进而阐释同辈公平的定义、维度、重要性及培养方式。 【16题详解】 上文“In the realm of organizational psychology, the focus has often been on the relationship between employees and their managers. We routinely ask questions like, ‘Is the boss fair?’ and ‘Does the supervisor listen?’(在组织心理学领域，焦点往往集中在员工与管理者之间的关系上。我们经常会问这样的问题：‘老板公平吗？’以及‘主管会倾听吗？’)”明确了以往组织心理学的研究重点，选项B“However, this focus on the boss-employee relationship is no longer sufficient.(然而，这种对上下级关系的关注已经不够了。)”通过转折，引出下文“As modern workplaces evolve to become flatter and more collaborative, a new form of fairness is emerging as a critical driver of success: peer justice.(随着现代工作环境逐渐变得扁平化且更加注重协作，一种新的公平形式正逐渐成为推动成功的关键因素：同事间的公正原则。)”现代职场中新兴的“同辈公平”这一核心概念。 【17题详解】 下文“Peer justice refers to the perceived fairness of the treatment that employees receive from their coworkers, rather than from formal authorities.(同辈公平指的是员工感受到的来自同事而非正式权威的待遇公平性。)”等内容详细解释了同辈公平的定义及要点，选项C“So what exactly is peer justice, and why does it matter for modern workplaces?(那么，同辈公平到底是什么，它对现代职场为何重要？)”以设问的方式，自然引出下文对同辈公平的具体阐释。 【18题详解】 上文“Peer justice manifests in several key dimensions.(同辈公平体现在几个关键维度上。)”指出同辈公平有多个维度，选项D“These include respect, equal support, and fair distribution of work among teammates.(这些维度包括尊重、平等支持以及团队成员间工作的公平分配。)”用“these”指代前文的“key dimensions”，具体列举了同辈公平的表现形式，与上文衔接紧密，贴合语境。 【19题详解】 上文“You might assume that as long as the boss is fair, the team will thrive.(你可能会认为，只要老板公平，团队就能蓬勃发展。)”提出了人们对团队成功的普遍认知，选项F“However, peer justice plays a more important role in team success than many people realize.(然而，同辈公平在团队成功中扮演的角色比许多人意识到的更为重要。)”进行转折，强调同辈公平的独特价值，与后文“Peer justice has a unique impact on performance that even the best manager cannot replicate.(同辈公平对绩效的独特影响是即使最好的管理者也无法复制的。)”形成呼应，逻辑连贯。 【20题详解】 下文“Creating a culture of peer fairness requires more than just policies; it necessitates a fundamental shift in leadership and team dynamics.(营造同辈公平的文化不仅仅需要政策，还需要领导方式和团队动态的根本性转变。)”具体说明了培养同辈公平文化的方法，选项G“How can organizations foster peer justice to unlock their teams’ full potential?(组织如何培养同辈公平以充分释放团队潜力？)”以提问的形式引出下文的具体做法，统领本段内容。 三、语言知识运用：本题分为两节，满分30分。 第一节 本题共15小题，每小题1分，共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，选出最佳选项在空白处。 In the Bolivian Andes, a group of Aymara women known as Las Cholitas Escaladoras climb mountains in their traditional clothing — including bright, heavy skirts called polleras. The author joined a women-only expedition with two of these guides, Liita and her sister Estrella. The pollera has a painful history. It was introduced by Spanish rulers in the 16th century, and for generations, it was a symbol of discrimination. Indigenous women who wore it were called cholas, a disrespectful ____21____, and were often denied entry to public places. However, in recent decades, Aymara and Quechua women have ____22____ the pollera as a symbol of pride. Today, it is worn on city streets, fashion runways, and even on some of the highest ____23____ in the Andes. Liita recalls her first summit in 2015. “When we reached the top, I felt I could do ____24____,” she says. Since then, she and other cholitas have climbed many of Bolivia’s highest mountains. Their mother, Dora, ____25____ her first mountain at age 50 and has since summited all of Bolivia’s highest peaks. The Aymara have a deep spiritual ____26____ to the mountains.

B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了玻利维亚Aymara女性穿着传统服饰pollera攀登安第斯山脉，将曾经被歧视的象征转化为民族自豪，并在登山过程中发现自我力量与精神信仰的故事。 【21题详解】 考查名词。句意：穿着这种裙子的土著女性被称为cholas，这是一个不尊重的称谓。A. designation称谓，指定；B. terminology术语；专门用语；C. attire服装；着装；D. occupation职业；占有。根据上文“The pollera has a painful history. It was introduced by Spanish rulers in the 16th century, and for generations, it was a symbol of discrimination. Indigenous women who wore it were called cholas, a disrespectful”可知，cholas是对这些女性的一个称呼，即“称谓”。 【22题详解】 考查动词。句意：然而，近几十年来，Aymara和Quechua女性重新认领pollera，将它作为自豪的象征。A. abandoned抛弃；放弃；B. rejected拒绝；排斥；C. reclaimed重新取回；获得D. neglected忽视；疏忽。根据上文“The pollera has a painful history. It was introduced by Spanish rulers in the 16th century, and for generations, it was a symbol of discrimination.”以及转折词“However”和下文“as a symbol of pride”可知，女性们将曾经带有歧视色彩的服饰重新认领，作为自豪的象征，体现从负面到正面的转变。 【23题详解】 考查名词。句意：如今，它在城市街道、时装秀场，甚至安第斯山脉的一些最高峰上被穿着。A. edifices大厦；建筑物；B. summits山顶；顶峰；C. plazas广场；集市；D. watercourses水道；河道。根据上文“climb mountains”和“even on some of the highest”可知，此处指在最高的山顶上穿着这种服饰登山，与登山主题紧密相关。 【24题详解】 考查代词。句意：“当我们到达山顶时，我觉得我能做任何事，”她说。A. nothing没有什么；B. something某事；C. anything任何事；D. everything每件事。根据后文“Since then, she and other cholitas have climbed many of Bolivia’s highest mountains.”可知，登顶后的感受应该是无所不能，anything常用于肯定句中表示”任何事”，强调可能性的无限。 【25题详解】 考查动词。句意：她们的母亲Dora在50岁时首次攀登了山，此后登顶了玻利维亚所有最高峰。A. shunned避开；回避；B. depicted描绘；描述；C. overlooked忽视；俯瞰；D. ascended攀登；上升。根据下文“her first mountain at age 50 and has since summited all of Bolivia’s highest peaks”可知，此处指攀登第一座山，与后文的summited形成动作递进。 【26题详解】 考查名词。句意：Aymara人与山脉有着深厚的精神纽带。A. response回应；反应；B. supplement补充；增补；C. bond纽带；联系；D. resolution决心；决议。根据下文“Before climbing, they perform a challa — an offering”可知，他们通过祭祀仪式与山建立联系，体现的是一种精神纽带。 【27题详解】 考查名词。句意：在攀登前，他们举行challa——一种祈求平安通行的祭品仪式。A. landing着陆；登陆；B. transit运输；通行；C. return返回；归来；D. residence居住；住所。根据上文“Before climbing, they perform a challa”以及安第斯山脉险峻的地理环境可知，登山者在出发前祈求的是在整个登山过程中的安全通行与顺利穿越。名词transit意为“（尤指通过陆路的）运输、通行、经过”，safe transit是固定搭配，侧重于旅途全程的平安顺畅，比单纯的return更全面地涵盖了登山过程中的风险。 【28题详解】 考查动词。句意：虽然身体受到海拔的挑战，但她成功到达了一堵30米高的冰壁顶部。A. assisted协助；帮助；B. inspired激励；启发；C. challenged挑战；考验；D. fascinated使着迷；使极感兴趣。根据上文“Though”引导的让步状语从句和下文“by the altitude”可知，高海拔对身体是一种挑战。 【29题详解】 考查动词。句意：她终于明白是什么将这些女性吸引回山脉。A. draws吸引；拉；B. detains拘留；耽搁；C. dispatches派遣；发送；D. propels推进；驱使。根据下文“not just the thrill, but the discovery of their own ________”可知，此处解释吸引她们回来的原因，draw sb. back to为固定搭配，意为“将某人吸引回”。 【30题详解】 考查名词。句意：不仅仅是刺激，而是发现她们自己的坚韧。A. frailty脆弱；虚弱；B. flaw缺陷；瑕疵；C. prospect前景；可能性；D. fortitude坚韧；刚毅。根据上文“When we reached the top, I felt I could do ________”和“The mountain has taught me to be a woman who dreams big”可知，登山让她们发现了自己的坚韧，与脆弱相反。 【31题详解】 考查名词。句意：因为登山是一种志向。A. aspiration志向；抱负；B. vocation职业；天职；C. pastime消遣；娱乐；D. routine常规；惯例。根据上文“The mountain has taught me to be a woman who dreams big”可知，Liita将登山视为一种远大的志向，而非简单的娱乐或职业。 【32题详解】 考查动词。句意：她帮助一位当地女性将羊驼赶上山坡。A. slaughter屠宰；屠杀；B. nourish滋养；养育；C. herd放牧；使聚集；D. purchase购买。根据下文“her alpacas up a hill”可知，此处指驱赶羊驼上山。 【33题详解】 考查名词。句意：她了解到旅游业为村庄带来了清洁的水源。A. food食物；B. water水；C. illumination照明；启发；D. air空气。根据常识和上文“tourism has brought clean”可知，旅游业发展通常会改善基础设施，带来清洁的水源是常见且合理的表述，且与安第斯山区可能缺水的背景相符。 【34题详解】 考查名词。句意：她在湖边目睹了一场challa仪式，在那里小型祭品被放置在大地上。A. gifts礼物；B. rocks岩石；C. tools工具；D. offerings祭品；供品。根据上文“they perform a challa — an offering”可知，challa就是一种祭品仪式，此处为原词复现。 【35题详解】 考查形容词。句意：这些时刻给了她一个与对外人传统上难以接近的社区建立联系的难得机会。A. accessible可接近的；易懂的；B. inaccessible难以接近的；难达到的；C. hospitable好客的；热情友好的；D. detrimental有害的。根据上文“a rare chance to connect”和下文“to outsiders”可知，这个社区传统上对外人是难以接近的，所以能建立联系才显得珍贵。 第二节 本题共10小题，每小题1.5分，共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。 Pancakes are super easy ____36____ (make) at home and taste amazing right out of the pan, when they are neither too hot nor too cold.

Strictly 45. eating 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了中国煎饼的特点、制作及相关情况。 【36题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：在家做煎饼超级简单，刚出锅时味道棒极了，这时的煎饼既不太烫也不太凉。主语+be+adj.+to do sth.是固定句型，意为“做某事很……”，因此空格处用不定式to make。故填to make。 【37题详解】 考查比较级。句意：如果我们给它加上一层淡淡的酥脆口感，再撒上一把葱花，味道会更棒。even修饰形容词比较级，空处需填nicer。故填nicer。 【38题详解】 考查介词。句意：还有些人则喜欢在面团里加一点肉或其他蔬菜来增加风味。固定搭配add...to...，意为“把…… 添加到……中”。故填to。 【39题详解】 考查冠词。句意：美国有线电视新闻网（CNN）于2025年2月20日在其网站上刊登了一篇文章，介绍“全球50种最美味的面包”。article是可数名词单数，表泛指，前面需加不定冠词，且article是元音音素开头，因此不定冠词用an，故填an。 【40题详解】 考查时态，语态和主谓一致。句意：中国煎饼榜上有名，文章用轻松有趣的方式对其进行了描述。句子主语they指代前文的“Chinese pancakes”，与谓语动词describe是被动关系（煎饼被描述），因此需用被动语态“be + 过去分词”，结合前文时间状语“February 20th, 2025”，且主语为复数。故填were described。 【41题详解】 考查名词的复数。句意：技艺娴熟的煎饼师傅能把面团拉得极薄，有的煎饼甚至能有18层以上。maker意为“制作者”，是可数名词，句中没有冠词修饰，且根据后文“they”（指代制作者）可知，此处需用复数形式。故填makers。 【42题详解】 考查结果状语从句的引导词。句意：技艺娴熟的煎饼师傅能把面团拉得极薄，有的煎饼甚至能有18层以上。so...that...为固定句型，意为“如此…… 以至于……”，引导结果状语从句。故填that。 【43题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：在中国北方，煎饼可以夹入甜味或咸味的食材，比如熏肉或花椒。句中谓语是can be filled with，空处用非谓语动词，meat和smoke之间是被动关系，因此空格处用过去分词作定语。故填smoked。 【44题详解】 考查副词。句意：严格来说，中国的煎饼有50多种，每种都有其独特的风味。空处用副词strictly修饰speaking，位于句首，首字母大写。故填Strictly。 【45题详解】 考查动名词。句意：在江苏，人们爱吃干菜，干菜煎饼随处可见。enjoy doing sth.是固定搭配，意为“喜欢做某事”，因此空格处用动名词eating作宾语。故填eating。 四、书面表达：本题分为两节，满分40分。 第一节 本题共4小题，其中66、67题各3分;68题4分;69题5分，满分15分。 阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题卡指定区域作答。 Every year, as birds make their journeys hundreds — sometimes thousands — of miles across whole continents, they attract the attention of bird-watchers. People gather along wetlands and shorelines, cold hands holding their telescopes and excitement growing in their stomachs. For outsiders of bird-watching, a bird-watcher is usually someone from an older generation, such as an old grandma sitting at her feeder looking at different birds. However, according to the National Survey of Fishing, Hunting, and Wildlife-Associated recreation, there were 4.7 million young bird-watchers in 2016 and 10. 8 million in 2022. Why exactly has this rapid growth happened? Technology may be the real gateway these days. Families might introduce young people to bird-watching, but apps and social media networks are helping them keep up their commitment to the hobby. Once interested, teenagers find the benefits of bird-watching are truly noticeable: it helps them get access to the traditional recreation and broadens their understanding of ecosystems. Teenage bird-watchers are finding their own digital way into a very traditional and meaningful activity. Sadie Cosby, a 17-year-old senior in Richmond, recognizes the appeal of online bird-watching platforms. She’s even part of a unique online chat group that sends messages when there is a rare bird in the area. Although Cosby says she prefers to bird-watch alone and uses it as a way to disconnect, she also enjoys being connected to other bird-watchers online. “I think because we’re kind of the smartphone generation, it’s easier for us to relate to bird-watching through all of the platforms,” says Cosby. Cosby is just a member of a much larger and closely networked community of young bird-watchers. And though they share much in common with older generations of bird-watchers when it comes to their passion for and enjoyment of the hobby, they also have a distinct advantage over the elders: being better at using digital tools to improve their bird-watching experience. 46. For outsiders of bird-watching, what kind of person is usually a bird-watcher? _____________________________________________________________ 47. What are the benefits of bird-watching for teenagers? _____________________________________________________________ 48. Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why. ➢Young bird-watchers share much in common with the elders in terms of their passion for and enjoyment of the hobby, but the elders hold a clear advantage over the young. _____________________________________________________________ 49. Besides bird-watching, what other hobby would you like to develop in Cosby’s way? And how can you develop it? (In about 40 words) _____________________________________________________________ 【答案】46. A bird-watcher is usually someone from an older generation. 47. It helps them get access to the traditional recreation and broadens their understanding of ecosystems. 48. Young bird-watchers share much in common with the elders in terms of their passion for and enjoyment of the hobby, but the elders hold a clear advantage over the young. Because they have a distinct advantage over the elders: being better at using digital tools to improve their bird-watching experience. 49. I would like to develop the hobby of photography in Cosby’s way. I can join online photography communities, share my works and techniques with others, and use digital tools like image editing software to enhance my photography skills. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了观鸟活动在年轻人中兴起及其原因和影响。 【46题详解】 考查细节理解。由文章第二段中“For outsiders of bird-watching, a bird-watcher is usually someone from an older generation, such as an old grandma sitting at her feeder looking at different birds. (对于不观鸟的人来说，观鸟者通常是老一辈的人，比如坐在喂食器前看不同鸟类的老奶奶。)”可知，对于不观鸟的人来说，观鸟者通常是老一辈的人。故答案为：A bird-watcher is usually someone from an older generation. 【47题详解】 考查细节理解。由文章第三段中“Once interested, teenagers find the benefits of bird-watching are truly noticeable: it helps them get access to the traditional recreation and broadens their understanding of ecosystems. (一旦感兴趣，青少年就会发现观鸟的好处确实很明显：它帮助他们接触到传统娱乐活动，并拓宽他们对生态系统的理解。)”可知，观鸟对青少年的好处是帮助他们接触到传统娱乐活动，并拓宽他们对生态系统的理解。故答案为：It helps them get access to the traditional recreation and broadens their understanding of ecosystems. 【48题详解】 考查细节理解。由文章最后一段中“And though they share much in common with older generations of bird-watchers when it comes to their passion for and enjoyment of the hobby, they also have a distinct advantage over the elders: being better at using digital tools to improve their bird-watching experience. (尽管在他们对这项爱好的热情和享受方面，他们与老一辈的观鸟者有很多共同之处，但他们也有一个明显的优势：更善于使用数字工具来改善他们的观鸟体验。)”可知，年轻观鸟者比老一辈的观鸟者更善于使用数字工具来改善他们的观鸟体验，而不是“the elders hold a clear advantage over the young (老一辈的观鸟者比年轻的观鸟者有明显的优势)”。故答案为：Young bird-watchers share much in common with the elders in terms of their passion for and enjoyment of the hobby, but the elders hold a clear advantage over the young. Because they have a distinct advantage over the elders: being better at using digital tools to improve their bird-watching experience. 【49题详解】 开放性题目，此题要求回答：除了观鸟，你还想在考斯比的道路上发展什么爱好？你如何开发它？答案不唯一，合理即可。例如：我想以科斯比的方式培养摄影这一爱好。我可以加入在线摄影社群，和其他人分享我的作品与拍摄技巧，还能利用图像编辑软件等数字工具来提升我的摄影水平。故答案为：I would like to develop the hobby of photography in Cosby’s way. I can join online photography communities, share my works and techniques with others, and use digital tools like image editing software to enhance my photography skills. 第二节 本题仅1题，满分25分。 50. 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。 注意： (1) 续写词数应为150个左右; (2) 主题：AI付费模式争议、用户选择、行业未来走向; (3) 请按照如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Chloe Wang, a 26-year-old fund worker in Shenzhen, often uses Doubao, an AI chatbot developed by ByteDance, for work. Recently, she heard Doubao planned to launch paid subscription plans and was told the monthly price could be as high as hundreds of yuan. Wang said she would never pay for it at such a price. “I’m willing to pay for useful AI tools, but Doubao isn’t worth the money. It’s easy to use among domestic AI products, but its performance in professional work tasks is just ordinary,” she explained. She also added that if she really needed a paid AI tool, she would choose ChatGPT instead. To learn more about public opinions, a newspaper reporter interviewed 12 AI users in mainland China. Surprisingly, 10 of them were unwilling to pay for Doubao’s subscription. They all complained about the high price and doubted its ability to handle professional work perfectly. Only two users were open to the paid plans. Zhang Zonggai, a marketing worker in Guangzhou, was one of them. He used Doubao to search information, translate articles, edit photos and even help check his child’s homework. However, he also admitted that Doubao’s reliability in professional tasks was far from satisfactory. He wondered whether it was better to choose Doubao or some professional AI tools for specific needs. Facing users’ hesitation, ByteDance still decided to roll out tiered subscription plans. The prices ranged from 68 yuan a month to 500 yuan a month. Analysts pointed out that this move was mainly due to soaring operating costs. Doubao had 345 million monthly active users, and it processed a huge amount of data every day. Providing totally free service for such a large user group was no longer sustainable. Nevertheless, the future of paid AI chatbots in China is uncertain. In America, 5 percent of AI users are willing to pay for subscriptions, while the ratio in China is expected to be only 0.3 to 3 percent. Chinese consumers prefer short-term emergency subscriptions. They pay only when they have urgent work needs and cancel the subscription soon after. Besides, other AI competitors like Alibaba and Tencent choose to wait and see, not rushing to launch similar paid plans. Experts believe that sooner or later, the whole Chinese AI market will turn to subscription-based models, but it will be a long and difficult journey. Facing users’ hesitation, ByteDance still decided to roll out tiered subscription plans. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As the paid plans were launched, most users, like Chloe Wang, refused to subscribe. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 Facing users’ hesitation, ByteDance still decided to roll out tiered subscription plans. The prices ranged from 68 yuan a month to 500 yuan a month. Analysts pointed out that this move was mainly due to soaring operating costs. Doubao had 345 million monthly active users, and it processed a huge amount of data every day. Providing totally free service for such a large user group was no longer sustainable. As the paid plans were launched, most users, like Chloe Wang, refused to subscribe. Instead, they turned to free alternatives or reduced their usage. However, Zhang Zonggai chose the basic 68-yuan plan for emergency tasks. He explained, “I pay only when I really need it, and I cancel right after.” This reflects a growing trend among Chinese consumers — short-term, need-based subscriptions. Meanwhile, competitors like Alibaba and Tencent continued to observe, not rushing to follow ByteDance’s lead. Experts believe that the future of China’s AI market will eventually shift to subscription models, but it will be a long and difficult journey. Balancing costs, user loyalty, and value creation remains the key challenge. Whether Doubao can survive this transition depends on whether it can truly prove its worth in professional fields — not just in daily convenience. 【解析】 【导语】本文以字节跳动豆包AI聊天机器人的付费订阅计划为核心，围绕AI付费模式争议、用户选择倾向及行业未来走向展开，讲述了多数用户因价格偏高、专业性能不足拒绝为豆包付费，少数用户仅愿意按需短期订阅；字节跳动因运营成本压力推出分级付费计划，上线后市场反馈分化，行业竞争对手持观望态度，凸显AI行业从免费向订阅制转型的困境与不确定性，探讨行业未来发展的核心挑战与方向。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ① 由第一段首句内容可知，第一段需紧扣“推出分级付费计划”展开，补充计划的价格梯度，并结合行业现状分析推出原因。 ② 由第二段首句内容可知，第二段需聚焦付费计划上线后的市场反馈，描写多数用户的拒绝态度及替代选择，以及行业发展趋势。 2. 续写线索：字节跳动推出豆包分级付费计划——分析推出的核心动因（运营成本压力）——付费计划上线后市场反馈分化（多数拒绝、少数短期订阅）——行业竞争对手持观望态度——专家解读行业转型趋势与难点 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①. 处理：process/handle ②. 观察：observe/watch 情绪类 ①. 急促：rush/hurry ②. 忠诚：loyalty/devotion 【点睛】[高分句型1].

SMI includes some disabling disorders, such as schizophrenia-spectrum disorders, bipolar disorder and treatment-resistant depression. Holidays can be especially painful, no matter whether you keep in touch with your loved one or stay away to protect your own mental health. You are not alone in this, as many people have similar experiences. Supporting a loved one with SMI brings chronic and acute stress, which can cause a special kind of burnout. It requires you to stay highly alert to possible crises, and it is terrifying when those crises happen. In fact, loved ones with SMI are more likely to face hardships like substance use disorders, homelessness and major health problems. What’s worse, dealing with these relationships often leads to isolation. You may grieve for loved ones who are physically present but not always mentally there. It’s easier to explain a physical illness to others, but most people who haven’t experienced SMI can’t understand its effects. Friends may try to help by solving problems, but what you really need is to be seen and heard, since these problems are rarely solvable. Here are some practical suggestions to help you take care of yourself. 1. What can we know about SMI from the passage? A. It only affects parents of young people. B. It has nothing to do with one’s physical health. C. It can be easily cured with proper treatment. D. It includes some serious and disabling disorders. 2. Why do people supporting loved ones with SMI often feel isolated? A. They are too busy to make friends. B. Their loved ones refuse to communicate with them. C. Others can hardly understand the effects of SMI. D. They are ashamed of their loved ones’ illness. 3. What do people supporting loved ones with SMI really need? A. Practical help to solve all their problems. B. Others’ understanding and listening. C. More money to treat their loved ones’ illness. D. Advice on how to stay away from their loved ones. B Recently, many people have been discussing a possible “white-collar blood bath” in the near future, where artificial intelligence (AI) programs replace many college-educated workers. Dario Amodei, CEO of Anthropic, predicts that half of entry-level jobs in law, consulting, and finance could disappear in a few years. Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta, also believes AI will replace many of Meta’s programmers within the next year or two. However, optimists disagree. They think AI will not replace workers but will instead serve as a tool to make them more productive. Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia, argues, “You’re not going to lose your job to AI, but you’re going to lose your job to someone who uses AI.” According to the author of this passage, both sides make the same mistake. They treat the question as one of fate rather than choice. Instead of asking which future is coming, we should ask which future we want: one where humans are replaced or one where humans are only augmented (enhanced)? The author believes that the answer lies in designing AI that works together with humans, not systems that replace us. Employers who adopt AI should also choose programs that augment rather than replace. The difference between augmentation and replacement can be subtle. The key question is whether the tool improves our abilities while still leaving us in control. As Steve Jobs once said, a computer can be “a bicycle of the mind.” For example, GitHub offers an AI tool called Copilot. When a programmer writes a line of code, Copilot suggests the next line, similar to the autocomplete feature in texting. This increases efficiency and sparks new ideas while keeping the human in control. Another example is AI technology that helps radiologists (doctors who examine medical images). It refines images, automates routine tasks, and flags potential problems. These tools make medical professionals better at their jobs rather than replacing them. The author also warns about a phenomenon called “model collapse.” If AI systems are trained using data produced by other AI, the quality of their outputs can quickly degrade. For instance, fully autonomous AI “journalists” posting online would gradually pollute the data supply. This problem could be managed by humans, but if left unmanaged, it would undermine any gains in productivity. In a classic 1960 paper, computer scientist J.C.R. Licklider wrote that the goal of computing should be “man-computer symbiosis.” The author agrees, concluding that the wholesale replacement of human work makes for good science fiction but a bad future. 4. According to the passage, what is the fundamental error made by both optimists and pessimists in the debate about AI replacing white-collar workers? A. They treat the future impact of AI as predetermined rather than a matter of human choice. B. They fail to recognize the speed at which AI technology is advancing. C. They underestimate the potential of AI to augment human capabilities. D. They overestimate the current capabilities of AI in performing complex tasks. 5. The author uses the examples of Copilot and AI technology assisting radiologists primarily to illustrate ________. A. how AI can perform tasks faster and more accurately than humans. B. the practical benefits of AI in automating routine and repetitive jobs. C. the concept of AI augmentation, where humans remain in control and benefit from AI assistance. D. the potential risks of relying too heavily on AI in critical professions like medicine and programming 6. The author mentions the concept of “model collapse” to argue that ________. A. AI systems should be strictly regulated to prevent job losses. B. maximizing efficiency and productivity should be the top priority. C. AI systems should be fully autonomous to avoid human errors. D. AI should be designed to work with humans rather than replace them. 7. What is the author’s main purpose in writing this passage? A. To argue that humans should stay in control of AI systems. B. To compare the predictions of different tech CEOs. C. To predict which industries will be most affected by AI. D. To prove that AI will eventually replace all white-collar workers. C Warner Bros Discovery (WBD) plans to reject the latest takeover proposal from Paramount, even after billionaire Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison agreed to personally backstop the $108bn hostile bid. According to people familiar with the matter, WBD’s board still thinks the $83bn deal it agreed with Netflix in early December is better than Paramount’s proposal, though they cautioned that WBD had not made a final decision. The board’s discussions happen at a time when Netflix and Paramount are competing to take over one of Hollywood’s most famous studios and streaming companies. Paramount made a hostile bid for WBD on December 8, just days after Netflix agreed to buy the group. WBD later turned down that offer, saying it was worse than Netflix’s deal and risky because it was not guaranteed by Ellison’s personal fortune. On December 22, Paramount announced that Ellison had agreed to provide an “irrevocable personal guarantee” covering $40.4bn of equity financing for its $108bn bid, which is led by his son David Ellison. Paramount also offered to raise the break fee to $5.8bn (up from $5bn) if regulators block the transaction, matching Netflix’s promise if the deal fails for antitrust reasons. However, Paramount did not increase its offer price, keeping it at $30 a share in cash to buy the entire company, including legacy television and cable assets like CNN, TNT and Discovery Channel. In contrast, the Netflix deal would involve splitting off those legacy assets into an independent company. A person briefed on the matter said WBD’s board wants Paramount to raise its bid to start new negotiations. The directors feel Paramount’s changes are not enough to end its deal with Netflix, which would require paying a $2.8bn break fee to the streaming company. A person close to Paramount said last week that its revised offer was to push WBD back to the negotiating table, adding that Paramount would be willing to increase the price if WBD shows “goodwill”. Paramount has turned directly to WBD’s shareholders for support. WBD shareholders now have until January 21 to tender their shares, an extension from the previous January 8 deadline. Both WBD and Paramount declined to comment. CNBC was the first to report WBD’s plan to reject the new offer. 8. Why does WBD plan to reject Paramount’s latest takeover proposal? A. It has already signed a formal deal with Netflix. B. It thinks Netflix’s deal is better than Paramount’s. C. Larry Ellison’s personal guarantee is not reliable. D. Paramount’s bid price is much lower than Netflix’s. 9. What did Paramount do to improve its takeover proposal? A. It raised the offer price to $35 a share. B. It got rid of the break fee for regulatory blocks. C. It got Larry Ellison’s personal guarantee for financing. D. It agreed to split off WBD’s legacy assets. 10. Where is this passage most probably from? A. Novel B. Newspaper C. Textbook D. Dictionary 11. What is the main purpose of this passage? A. To explain why WBD rejected Paramount’s first bid. B. To report the competition between Netflix and Paramount for WBD. C. To introduce the assets of WBD and Paramount. D. To analyze the risks of Hollywood’s takeover deals. D Technology companies are pouring billions of dollars into quantum computing, despite the technology still being years away from practical applications. Building a computer that harnesses the unusual properties of quantum mechanics has been an idea since the 1980s, but in the last couple of decades, scientists have made significant strides in building large-scale devices. Now, tech giants and well-funded startups have invested heavily and created several quantum machines and quantum processing units (QPUs). In theory, quantum computers could solve problems beyond even the most powerful classical computer. However, they need to become much larger and more reliable first. Once they do, they may crack unsolvable challenges in chemistry, physics, materials science and machine learning. “It’s not just like a fast classical computer; this is a completely different paradigm,” said Norbert Lütkenhaus from the University of Waterloo. The most fundamental building block of a quantum computer is the qubit, which is comparable to a bit in a classical computer but can represent both 0 and 1 simultaneously. Today’s largest quantum computers have just crossed the 1,000 qubit mark, but most have only a few tens or hundreds. They are far more error-prone due to quantum states’ extreme sensitivity to external noise, making it hard to run large quantum programs for practical use. William Oliver from MIT noted that today’s quantum computers are used to learn how to make larger ones and how to use them. Building larger processors helps test quantum error-correction schemes, which involve spreading quantum information over multiple physical qubits to create a more resilient “logical qubit.” Recent breakthroughs suggest fault-tolerant quantum computing might be closer than expected, though scaling up to millions of qubits will take time. The power of quantum computing lies in superposition, which allows a quantum system to occupy multiple states at once. This lets qubits represent all potential solutions to a problem; incorrect answers are suppressed and correct ones enhanced. This makes it possible to tackle problems too vast for classical computers, especially in simulating physical systems governed by quantum mechanics. This could bring breakthroughs in battery technology, superconductors, catalysts and pharmaceuticals. Quantum computers also have downsides. With enough qubits, an algorithm could crack much of today’s internet encryption, but new “post-quantum” encryption standards have been released to address this. Other applications, such as optimization (e.g., traffic flows, delivery routes) and machine learning, are still speculative. Most quantum algorithms offer less than exponential speed-ups, and translating classical data into quantum states is slow, eating into computational advantages. Experts agree quantum computing is still in early days. The field is still developing basic algorithm “primitives,” and companies should focus on solving generic problems first rather than specific applications too early. 12. What can we learn about today’s quantum computers from the passage? A. They have been widely used in practical fields. B. Most of them have more than 1 000 qubits. C. They are mainly used to improve quantum technology itself. D. They are as reliable as classical computers. 13. What does the underlined word “paradigm” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Method. B. Trend. C. Idea. D. System. 14. Why is simulating physical systems a suitable task for quantum computers? A. They operate based on the same principles as physical systems. B. They can handle all kinds of complex problems quickly. C. They are less affected by external noise than classical computers. D. They can store more data about physical systems. 15. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Quantum computing is promising but still faces challenges. B. Tech companies are competing to develop quantum computers. C. Quantum computing has already changed many industries. D. Experts disagree on the future of quantum computing. 第二节 本题共5小题，每小题2.5分，共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。 In the realm of organizational psychology, the focus has often been on the relationship between employees and their managers. We routinely ask questions like, “Is the boss fair?” and “Does the supervisor listen?” ___16___ As modern workplaces evolve to become flatter and more collaborative, a new form of fairness is emerging as a critical driver of success: peer justice. ___17___ Peer justice refers to the perceived fairness of the treatment that employees receive from their coworkers, rather than from formal authorities. While traditional organizational justice focuses on supervisors and hierarchical relationships, peer justice emphasizes the horizontal connections that shape our daily work experiences. Peer justice manifests in several key dimensions. ___18___ Research indicates that peer justice is highly dynamic; it is not a static “vibe” but fluctuates based on daily interactions. In fact, one study found that about 70% of the variance in peer justice perceptions occurs within the same individual from day to day . You might assume that as long as the boss is fair, the team will thrive. ___19___ Peer justice has a unique impact on performance that even the best manager cannot replicate. When peer justice is lacking, the consequences can be detrimental to an organization. ___20___ Creating a culture of peer fairness requires more than just policies; it necessitates a fundamental shift in leadership and team dynamics. The fairness that exists between peers may be the most crucial factor in your organization’s success. A. This emphasizes the importance of cultivating a positive workplace environment where fairness is consistently practiced. B. However, this focus on the boss-employee relationship is no longer sufficient. C. So what exactly is peer justice, and why does it matter for modern workplaces? D. These include respect, equal support, and fair distribution of work among teammates. E. Yet peer justice is often overlooked when evaluating team performance and organizational health. F. However, peer justice plays a more important role in team success than many people realize. G. How can organizations foster peer justice to unlock their teams’ full potential? 三、语言知识运用：本题分为两节，满分30分。 第一节 本题共15小题，每小题1分，共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，选出最佳选项在空白处。 In the Bolivian Andes, a group of Aymara women known as Las Cholitas Escaladoras climb mountains in their traditional clothing — including bright, heavy skirts called polleras.

People gather along wetlands and shorelines, cold hands holding their telescopes and excitement growing in their stomachs. For outsiders of bird-watching, a bird-watcher is usually someone from an older generation, such as an old grandma sitting at her feeder looking at different birds. However, according to the National Survey of Fishing, Hunting, and Wildlife-Associated recreation, there were 4.7 million young bird-watchers in 2016 and 10. 8 million in 2022. Why exactly has this rapid growth happened? Technology may be the real gateway these days. Families might introduce young people to bird-watching, but apps and social media networks are helping them keep up their commitment to the hobby. Once interested, teenagers find the benefits of bird-watching are truly noticeable: it helps them get access to the traditional recreation and broadens their understanding of ecosystems. Teenage bird-watchers are finding their own digital way into a very traditional and meaningful activity. Sadie Cosby, a 17-year-old senior in Richmond, recognizes the appeal of online bird-watching platforms. She’s even part of a unique online chat group that sends messages when there is a rare bird in the area. Although Cosby says she prefers to bird-watch alone and uses it as a way to disconnect, she also enjoys being connected to other bird-watchers online. “I think because we’re kind of the smartphone generation, it’s easier for us to relate to bird-watching through all of the platforms,” says Cosby. Cosby is just a member of a much larger and closely networked community of young bird-watchers. And though they share much in common with older generations of bird-watchers when it comes to their passion for and enjoyment of the hobby, they also have a distinct advantage over the elders: being better at using digital tools to improve their bird-watching experience. 46.

Recently, she heard Doubao planned to launch paid subscription plans and was told the monthly price could be as high as hundreds of yuan. Wang said she would never pay for it at such a price. “I’m willing to pay for useful AI tools, but Doubao isn’t worth the money. It’s easy to use among domestic AI products, but its performance in professional work tasks is just ordinary,” she explained. She also added that if she really needed a paid AI tool, she would choose ChatGPT instead. To learn more about public opinions, a newspaper reporter interviewed 12 AI users in mainland China. Surprisingly, 10 of them were unwilling to pay for Doubao’s subscription. They all complained about the high price and doubted its ability to handle professional work perfectly. Only two users were open to the paid plans. Zhang Zonggai, a marketing worker in Guangzhou, was one of them. He used Doubao to search information, translate articles, edit photos and even help check his child’s homework. However, he also admitted that Doubao’s reliability in professional tasks was far from satisfactory. He wondered whether it was better to choose Doubao or some professional AI tools for specific needs. Facing users’ hesitation, ByteDance still decided to roll out tiered subscription plans. The prices ranged from 68 yuan a month to 500 yuan a month. Analysts pointed out that this move was mainly due to soaring operating costs. Doubao had 345 million monthly active users, and it processed a huge amount of data every day. Providing totally free service for such a large user group was no longer sustainable. Nevertheless, the future of paid AI chatbots in China is uncertain. In America, 5 percent of AI users are willing to pay for subscriptions, while the ratio in China is expected to be only 0.3 to 3 percent. Chinese consumers prefer short-term emergency subscriptions. They pay only when they have urgent work needs and cancel the subscription soon after. Besides, other AI competitors like Alibaba and Tencent choose to wait and see, not rushing to launch similar paid plans. Experts believe that sooner or later, the whole Chinese AI market will turn to subscription-based models, but it will be a long and difficult journey. Facing users’ hesitation, ByteDance still decided to roll out tiered subscription plans. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As the paid plans were launched, most users, like Chloe Wang, refused to subscribe. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
