That's when we had the solar panels installed,linked to an app on my phone.Now, wherever I am,I can open the app and see how much electricity we are creating and how much we are consuming.Right now,we're exporting 2.37 kilowatts to the grid ()I enjoy the feeling.Yes,I'm saving the planet.More to the point:I'm making upwards of 10 cents an hour,DOING NOTHING. Certainly,you have to put in a bit of effort.Ever since I became an energy exporter,I have been patrolling (the house,trying to maximize our production. Of course,I get some complaints from my wife,Jocasta,along the lines of"I was using that light to read a book"or"Why didn't you save my work before turning off my computer,"but I think she is grateful for my assistance. The only problem?Just last night,I turned off everything,but we were still consuming 0.05 of a kilowatt.I checked the fridge.It was not humming ()All the overhead lights were out.Nothing was on standby.Yet there it was.I hardly slept, my mind trying to work through every corner of the house. Back at office,I find it hard to tear my eyes away from the app.Right now,it's midday.Jocasta is at home.I glance at the app.Oh no!Clouds overhead!Disaster! We're now producing nothing.Nothing at all.And consumption is suddenly through the roof.We're using up grid power.What's Jocasta up to?Running a factory? The next day,at work,around midday,I check the app just to calculate how much I've earned.What?Disaster!Clouds overhead again and yet power still being used. Jocasta is out of the house.Why,oh why,has Jocasta left the TV remote in reach of the dog?I must have a word with him.You see,sometimes it's hard to be ahead of your time. 4.What can we learn about the author from paragraph 1? A.He is a creative businessman. B.He takes pride in the solar gains C.He enjoys launching campaigns. D.He has a gift for app development. 5.What does Jocasta complain about? A.The unknown waste of power. B.Her family's impatient attitude. C.The unstable supply of electricity. D.Her husband's unreasonable behavior. 6.What does the underlined phrase "through the roof'in paragraph 4 mean? A.Rocketing.. B.Changing. C.Freezing.

D.Technology is a good servant but a bad master. C The room looks like your typical office:white walls,low ceilings,gray carpet worn thin from years of foot traffic.But for this vacant office outside Dupont Circle in Washington,D.C.,real estate developers see potential. Cities across the U.S.are struggling with two problems:too much empty office space and not enough housing.Nationally,office vacancy rates reached roughly 20% in 2024,after years of employees working from home.At the same time,the national housing shortage is in the millions.Cities like D.C.,are now betting that by turning empty offices into homes,one crisis can help solve the other. A project in D.C.,which broke ground last month,is the largest such conversion (in the city to date.The overall structure of the buildings will remain the same, but with major additions:a lighter-colored exterior (will replace the gray concrete from the 1960s,and old inefficient windows will be replaced by larger ones that let in more light per unit.Plans include luxuries such as a pool and a dog park, with projected rent around $4,000 per month.Yet 60 units will be set aside as affordable housing."We would love to do more,"says Matt Pestronk,the president of a development company,"but unfortunately,almost all capital seeks a return.This was as much as we could afford to do." "It does kill two birds with one stone,in terms of providing some housing supply."says Tracy Loh,a fellow at the Brookings Institution who studies adaptive reuse of old buildings.And it tends to create housing in central,transit-accessible areas that are in high demand. The decline of manufacturing (in the late 20th century offers a glimpse of what comes next.When shifts happen in the economy and society,the built environment must change to match contemporary demand.Just as empty factory floors became trendy apartments,today's empty office spaces are turning into stylish kitchens and bedrooms. 8.What are cities like DC trying to do? A.Repurpose empty offices. B.Tear down unused buildings. C.Build housing in suburbs. D.Encourage working from home. 9.What can be inferred about the project in paragraph 3? A.It requires structural changes. B.It targets low-income families. C.It is funded by the government. 第6页/共12页 CS扫描全能王 3亿人都在用的扫描APP D.It balances profit and social needs. 10.What does Tracy Loh think of the conversion? A.Realistic. B.Not far-reaching. C.Demanding. D.Short-sighted. 11.What can be a suitable title for the text? A.Cities Are Caught in Crisis B.Housing Demand Is Crying for More C.Offices Are Becoming Homes D.Manufacturing Is Gaining a Second Life D Why does“bouba'”sound round and"kiki'”sound spiky(尖锐的)？This perception,known as"bouba-kiki"effect,is reliable all over the world,and for at least a century,scientists have considered it a clue to the origin of language,theorizing that maybe our ancestors built their first words upon these associations between sound and shape.But a new study published in Science adds an unexpected finding:baby chickens make these same pairings,suggesting that the link to human language may not be so unique. The study was led by Maria Loconsole,a comparative psychologist at the University of Padua.She and her colleagues placed chicks in front of two panels:one featured a flowerlike shape with gently rounded curves;the other had a spiky shape like a cartoon explosion.They then played recordings of humans saying either "bouba"or"kiki"and observed the birds'behavior.When the chicks heard "bouba," 80 percent of them approached the round shape first and spent an average of more than three minutes exploring it compared with an average of just under one minute spent exploring the spiky shape.When the chicks heard"kiki,"the opposite occurred. One long-standing theory that these associations are inspired by the shape your mouth makes when you say each word can now be ruled out,since the chicks showed the effect despite being unable to speak.Instead the"bouba-kiki"effect may originate from the physical properties of objects themselves.When round objects hit the ground or roll,they typically produce more continuous,low-frequency sounds than spiky ones.A built-in grasp of those dynamics,linking sight and sound,could help newborn animals quickly make sense of their environment,possibly to locate food or avoid predators(食肉动物). The "bouba-kiki"effect may have played a role in the emergence of language. But for chickens,this same tendency seems to serve a more evolutionary purpose. "Even if language is unique to humans,"Loconsole says,"that doesn't mean that it comes from an ability that is unique to humans." 12.What does the new study focus on? 第7页/供12页 CS扫描全能王 3亿人都在用的扫猫APp A.The origin of human language. B.Sound-shape connections in chicks C.Animals'recognition of shapes D.Brain-behavior relationships of birds. 13.In what way do the chicks respond differently to the two sounds? A.Sound localization B.Reaction speed. C.Exploration preference. D.Matching accuracy. 14.What is paragraph 3 mainly about concerning the effect? A.Its historical context. B.Its potential application. C.Its overlooked limitation. D.Its possible explanation. 15.What does Loconsole say about the effect? A.It originated in birds. B.It shows evolutionary tendency. C.It's shared across species D.It's vital to language emergence. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两 项为多余选项。 Street names help us figure out where we are.This can be understood both literally and metaphorically.Some names,like 125th Street,are just descriptions.But often,streets are named after people,which places us in a historical or political context too. Not far from where my brother lives in north London is a street called Kitchener Road.Just behind the lamp post was an old sign,made of thick iron,bearing the name 16 That sign seems to say this person was and still is deserving of recognition.But Kitchener Road reminded me of Britain's history of colonial( rule,as the Kitchener(1850-1916)was a cruel British military officer across Asia and Africa. Saying street names are markers of history attracts two types of criticism.One is that it's nothing more than a storm in a teacup.Street names don't really matter. 17 But honoring people responsible for killing through street names preserves a celebratory view of that past and normalises it in daily life.So what should we do? 18 Another option is the Amsterdam approach.There,a street honoring anti-apartheid(反种族隔离)leader Albert Luthuli has a sign noting:“Formerly: Louis Botha street,"named after a prime minister of colonial South Africa. Where such names remain,people are creating walking tours to provide full context.In Glasgow,a tour was organized to make people know about the city's role in the enslavement of people.19It builds thoughtful ways forward locally. Walking away from Kitchener Road,I thought of a different Kitchener:the 第8页/供12页 CS扫描全能王 3亿人都在用的扫描ApP legendary Trinidadian calypso musician.Upon arriving in England,he sang London is the Place for Me.If Kitchener Road must keep its name,I'd prefer to imagine they honor the"King of Calypso,"not the colonial butcher.20 A.Residents rarely notice the street names. B.My view is that such streets be renamed. C.Perhaps we should consider the evidence. D.Perhaps that is a take-back we can all adopt. E.Another,changing these names erases history. F.This kind of practice is creative response to damaging histories G.To name a street after a person is a way of honoring their achievements. 第三部分语言知识运用（共两节，满分30分) 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填 入空白处的最佳选项。 Dr.James Leong is an eye doctor in Wellington.For years,his demanding schedule was a constant 21-caught in a tug-of-war between his patients and a mountain of paperwork.Every day was a 22.He'd see up to 50 patients,then spend his evenings and weekends buried under medical notes and reports."The exhausting routine 23 me of family time.When my daughter asked why I missed her school play again,I showed her the 24 pile of charts in my trunk."Dr.Leong said.

By high school,Eliot's dream of joining the school's award-winning art club felt utterly impossible.He'd linger by the clubroom door long after classes ended, pressing his forehead to the cool glass to watch classmates paint vibrant,eye-catching murals,his own crumpled black-and-white sketches tucked tight deep in his backpack. He feared signing up would bring cruel mockery for his color blindness,or that his monochrome drawings would be dismissed as "lazy"and"unfinished." His art teacher,Ms.Lopez,had long noticed Eliot's quiet,extraordinary talent. One rainy afternoon,she found him huddled in the empty hallway sketching a scruffy stray cat,and knelt gently beside him,her voice warm and soft."These lines are incredible,Eliot.You capture life so beautifully,even in black and white."Eliot's head snapped up,ears turning bright pink,and he shut his sketchbook fast,fingers trembling."It's nothing,"he mumbled,staring hard at his scuffed sneakers."I can't do color.I'm not a real artist."Ms.Lopez smiled gently,but didn't push further that day. A week later,Ms.Lopez announced a new club project:a black-and-white comic strip exhibition for the school's upcoming literary festival.Eliot's heart skipped a beat, but old,familiar insecurities held him back instantly.After class,she left a dog-eared graphic novel on his desk-drawn entirely in bold,striking black and white-with a 第11页/供12页 CS扫描全能王 3亿人都在用的扫猫ApP handwritten note:"Talent isn't in the colors you use.It's in the stories you tell." 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:Eliot took the novel home,filled with courage.
