单元测评18　UNIT 2　LOOKING INTO THE FUTURE (本栏目内容，在学生用书中以独立形式分册装订！) (限时：45分钟　满分：62.5分) Ⅰ.阅读理解(每小题2.5分，共20分) A (2026·四川名优校联盟一模) 　　The debate over birth order and personality traits (特性) has been ongoing for over a century.After decades of contested claims，a handful of recent studies found there was little evidence for meaningful differences.But in a study published last week，psychologists have pushed back and claim there is an effect after all. In one of the largest studies ever conducted on birth order，family size and personality，Canadian researchers gathered data from more than 700，000 volunteers and found that on average，middle children scored higher than their siblings (兄弟姐妹) on traits seen as important for cooperation. Scores for the same traits were also higher in families with more children，suggesting that people may be more likely to develop a cooperative personality when they are raised as part of a bigger group. Michael Ashton，first author of the study，noted that individuals with more siblings were more likely to develop cooperative personalities.“A commonsense possibility is that when one has more siblings，one must more frequently cooperate rather than act on selfish preferences.This ongoing situation might then promote the development of cooperative tendencies generally.” Researchers have guessed about the impact of birth order for more than a century.In 1874，the polymath Francis Galton，the youngest of nine siblings，gathered histories on a group of English scientists and found a large proportion were firstborns.He suspected the eldest received more attention from their parents，propelling them to greater intellectual heights.Decades later，the Austrian psychologist Alfred Adler claimed firstborns were often conscientious and responsible，while the youngest might become independent and creative as they looked for ways to stand out. This new research lends some credence to Adler’s view，showing that middle children may indeed be more cooperative due to the unique position they hold in the family dynamic.They are often required to balance the needs of both younger and older siblings，fostering skills like negotiation and compromise. 　　【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了关于出生顺序对性格影响的新研究及相关观点。 1.What’s the finding of the Canadian study？ A.Siblings are born the same. B.Middle children shine in cooperation. C.Birth order has little impact on personality. D.A large family contributes to sibling harmony. 答案：B 解析：细节理解题。根据第二段可知，加拿大研究人员发现，平均而言，排行中间的孩子在对合作很重要的特质方面得分高于他们的兄弟姐妹，即中间的孩子在合作方面表现突出。故选B。 2.What are Michael Ashton’s words aimed at？ A.Offering an explanation. B.Forecasting a global trend. C.Presenting a new argument. D.Defending his research finding. 答案：A 解析：推理判断题。根据第四段可知，Michael Ashton 指出有更多兄弟姐妹的人更有可能发展出合作的个性，后面的话是对这一观点进行的一种解释，说明为什么有更多兄弟姐妹的人会更具合作性。所以他的话旨在给出一种解释。故选 A。 3.What does Paragraph 5 of the text mainly focus on？ A.Applications of the research finding. B.Past theories the Canadian study builds on. C.Previous studies on the impact of birth order. D.Further explanations of the research methods. 答案：C 解析：段落大意题。根据第五段的“Researchers have guessed about the impact of birth order for more than a century.”以及后面提到的Francis Galton和Alfred Adler的研究可知，本段主要聚焦于过去关于出生顺序影响的研究。故选C。 4.What does the underlined word “credence” in the last paragraph mean？ A.Denial. B.Pardon. C.Confusion. D.Acceptance. 答案：D 解析：词义猜测题。根据画线单词所在的句子“showing that middle children may indeed be more cooperative due to the unique position they hold in the family dynamic”可知，新的研究表明中间的孩子确实可能因为他们在家庭动态中所处的独特位置而更具合作性，这说明新研究是支持Adler的观点的，所以 credence意思应该是“认可，接受”。故选D。 B (2026·山东省临沂市模拟) 　　On the surface，it may not appear that Dr.Dolittle and artificial intelligence (AI) have much in common.One belongs in 1900s children’s literature，while the other is firmly rooted in the 21st century.One is a physician turned vet (兽医) who can talk to animals，and the other a computerized technology that cannot.But the dream of speaking with animals may not be so fantastical anymore. AI has already given us the ability to bark instructions at robots—could its potential be extended to the animal kingdom？ Could it help us understand the natural world and maybe one day allow us to “talk” to animals？ The first difficulty in “translating” animal communication is understanding what that communication looks like.Human language is made up of verbal (口头的) and non-verbal cues，and animal communication is no different.Dogs wag their tails，for example，to convey a range of emotions.However，there is some debate as to whether this can be considered a “language”.According to Dr.Herzing，Research Director，Wild Dolphin Project，AI could help put it to bed. “We currently don’t know if animals have a language，” Herzing said.“But AI can help us look for language-like structures which might suggest animals have parts of a language.” Scientists have been collecting sounds，calls and various animal vocalizations (发声) for decades.Research has shown that animal vocalizations carry many types of information from their identity to external objects.The hope is that AI models being developed can work like what ChatGPT does for human input，and turn those vocalizations into something more recognizable to humans. With a better understanding of the animals around us，can we still justify practices that slaughter (屠宰) them？ This could have far-reaching influences，including for the treatment of animals in entertainment，research and agriculture.From a human perspective，there is also a lot we could learn，not just about ourselves but about animals and，maybe，other life forms. 　　【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了人工智能有望帮助人类理解动物交流方式，让人类能够“与动物对话”，并且对动物的深入了解会对动物的待遇等方面产生深远影响。 5.Why does the author mention Dr.Dolittle in Paragraph 1？ A.To present a classic figure. B.To highlight literary-real gap. C.To inspire animal talk fantasy. D.To indicate tech realizes fairytale. 答案：D 解析：推理判断题。根据第一段可知，提到杜立德医生是为了表明人工智能这项技术或许能让与动物交谈的童话般的梦想实现。故选D。 6.What does “put it to bed” underlined in Paragraph 3 refer to？ A.Solve the problem. B.Suspend the research. C.Continue the discussion. D.Reconsider the definition. 答案：A 解析：词义猜测题。根据第三段中的“However，there is some debate as to whether this can be considered a ‘language’.According to Dr.Herzing，Research Director，Wild Dolphin Project，AI could help put it to bed.”可知，it指代前面关于动物交流是否能被视为一种“语言”的争议，所以此处表示人工智能能帮助解决这个争议，故选A。 7.What are AI models expected to do？ A.Interpret human language patterns. B.Assess the general state of animals. C.Make animal voices understandable. D.Record major events in the natural world. 答案：C 解析：细节理解题。根据倒数第二段可知，人工智能模型有望让动物的声音变得能被人类理解。故选C。 8.What will a better understanding of the animals lead to？ A.A new life form exploration. B.The better animal welfare. C.A deeper reflection on humans. D.The advanced slaughter technology. 答案：B 解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段可知，对动物更好的理解会对动物的待遇产生影响，意味着会带来更好的动物福利。故选B。 Ⅱ.阅读七选五(每小题2.5分，共12.5分) (2026·山东省潍坊市模拟) 　　Most of us have been put on the spot in a number of different situations，whether at work or among a group of friends.　1　 However，you just aren’t ready to give，whether it’s because you don’t know or you’re not willing to share.It is really embarrassing. We’ve all been guilty of putting others on the spot ourselves，usually by accident.Perhaps we ask a sensitive question of a friend in a group setting，or try to push a quiet coworker to share their answers in a meeting.　2　 Putting someone on the spot though，whether intentional or not，has the effect of destroying trust in a relationship.The key to maintaining the trust in a relationship is developing your emotional intelligence.　3　 As Krauss wrote in a recent Psychology Today article，“A sign that you’re not as sensitive as you could be when you pressure people is that others try to stay away from you to the extent that they can.” 　4　 Are people born with the ability to develop a high level of emotional intelligence，or is that something they are taught？ Although the answer is probably a little bit of both，strengthening your emotional intelligence is definitely something we can all do.　5　 Listening，empathizing (共情)，and reflecting are strategies that many of us have developed with time to strengthen our emotional intelligence，whether with the help of a professional or through our own trial-and-error. A.People are fed up with the dull and long wait. B.It can help us understand and handle a confusing situation. C.Even，we just want to make someone we don’t like uneasy. D.A core part of that is being able to perceive how others feel. E.A set of eyes turn toward you with the expectation for an answer. F.Many of us have got more emotionally intelligent as we get older. G.There is a debate on whether emotional intelligence is native or not. 　　【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了会让他人陷入困境的原因以及情商对于关系的影响。 1.答案：E 解析：根据上文“Most of us have been put on the spot in a number of different situations，whether at work or among a group of friends.”以及下文“However，you just aren’t ready to give，whether it’s because you don’t know or you’re not willing to share.It is really embarrassing.”可知，本句承接上文，继续说明陷入困境时的场景。故E选项“一双眼睛转向你，期待着你的回答。”符合语境，故选E。 2.答案：C 解析：根据上文“我们都曾为自己让别人陷入困境而感到内疚，通常是出于偶然。也许我们会在小组中问朋友一个敏感的问题，或者在会议上强迫一个安静的同事分享他们的答案。”可知，本段主要分析让他人陷入困境的原因，本句为本段最后一句，是对上文原因的补充说明，故选C。 3.答案：D 解析：空格上文指出保持信任需要发展情商，空格下文提到无意识给他人施压说明并没有那么敏感，即对他人的感受没能及时发觉。故D选项“其中的一个核心部分是能够感知他人的感受。”符合语境，故选D。 4.答案：G 解析：根据空格下文可知，本段主要说明了关于情商是否是天生的存在争议，故G选项“关于情商是否天生就有争议。”符合语境，故选G。 5.答案：F 解析：空格下文提到情商可以随着时间推移而发展，即情商随着年龄增长而变得越高。故F选项“随着年龄的增长，我们中的许多人的情商都越来越高。”符合语境，故选F。 Ⅲ.完形填空(每小题1分，共15分) (2025·山东省潍坊市三轮拉练) 　　I knew exercise is good for health—who doesn’t？ But 　1　 were easier.Running bored me，biking sounded risky，and the gym seemed too much to handle.Each offered me a reason to 　2　 it，so I did.
