A small dog sat in his lap. Stewart, a vet (兽医) at an animal hospital, noticed its injured fur and skin. He approached the man and offered to bring medication for the dog's skin, a gift the man readily accepted. “I remember returning a week later, and the hair was coming back the rash (皮疹) was gone,” Stewart told the Modesto Bee. Tom said his dog was finally sleeping at night again because it was no longer feeling restless for its illness. “‘And you know,’ he said, ‘I’m sleeping at night.’ He started to cry, and that got me touched too,” Stewart says. Stewart was addicted. “When you do good deeds, there is something you get in return that feels much larger. I knew I wanted to keep doing it, "he told medium.com. Today, Stewart, 50, has his own practice in town, yet he still finds time for street pets. He's helped roughly 400 animals since 2011. There's a great need for his kind of help. About 25 percent of Modesto's homeless population owns a pet, but there are few healthcare options available to them. To fill that gap, Stewart can often be found wandering dark streets and underpasses (地下通道), anywhere he thinks the homeless might be camped out. Stewart pays for almost all of it out of his own pocket. For those expensive procedures, he set up a GoFundMe account to help cover treatment costs. “I don't ever want to have to turn anybody away,” he explains. “To have somebody like Dr. Stewart come out here to take care of my dog just because it's the right thing to do, that's huge.” Joe, one of the dog owners, said in a video that Stewart posted on the GoFundMe page. 4.

D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。主要介绍了兽医斯图尔特在街上帮助那些有困难的动物的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Stewart, a vet (兽医) at an animal hospital, noticed its injured fur and skin He approached the man and offered to bring medication for the dog's skin, a gift the man readily accepted.（斯图尔特，一家动物医院的兽医，他注意到狗的皮毛和皮肤受伤，于是走近那名男子，并提出给狗的皮肤上药，这名男子欣然接受了这个礼物。）”可知，斯图尔特给生病的狗进行了药物治疗，故选择B项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。结合上文介绍的斯图尔特帮助Tom的故事以及第三段中“Stewart was addicted. “When you do good deeds, there is something you get in return that feels much larger. I knew I wanted to keep doing it, "he told medium.com. （斯图尔特上瘾了。“当你做好事的时候，你会得到更大的回报。我知道我想继续做下去，”他告诉媒体网站。）”可知，斯图尔特决定继续做好事，是从帮助Tom这件事中得到的启发，故选择D项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“Today, Stewart, 50, has his own practice in town, yet he still finds time for street pets. He's helped roughly 400 animals since 2011. （如今，50岁的斯图尔特在城里有自己的诊所，但他仍然找时间帮助街上的宠物。自2011年以来，他帮助了大约400只动物。）”可知，斯图尔特是个善良的人，以及第五段中“Stewart pays for almost all of it out of his own pocket. For those expensive procedures, he set up a GoFundMe account to help cover treatment costs.（斯图尔特几乎所有的钱都是自己掏出来的。对于那些昂贵的手术，他设立了一个GoFundMe账户来帮助支付治疗费用。）”可知，斯图尔特是个慷慨的人，故选择C项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。结合全文对于斯图尔特的介绍以及最后一段““To have somebody like Dr. Stewart come out here to take care of my dog just because it's the right thing to do, that's huge.” Joe, one of the dog owners, said in a video that Stewart posted on the GoFundMe page（“有像斯图尔特医生这样的人来这里照顾我的狗，这正是最需要的事情，这是巨大的。”狗主人之一乔在斯图尔特发布在GoFundMe页面上的一段视频中说）”可知，本文主要是在介绍一名兽医的善举带来的影响，故选择D项。 C AI generators (生成器) and the avatars they create are developing rapidly. UK-based company Synthesia aims to move this technology further. Recently, it announced Expressive Avatars, which can show a lot of lifelike human feelings. These avatars are part of what Synthesia calls its “digital actors”. They have improved facial expressions and human-like voices-an upgrade from other AIsystems’ robotic sounds. Synthesia offers more than 160 AI avatars, under the agreement of real human actors. Users can produce videos in more than 130 languages. CEO Victor Riparbelli said that they are not coming for Hollywood; instead, they focus on companies and B2B content, which need communication videos that are easy-to-create and human-like, such as in areas like healthcare. Synthesia’s Expressive Avatars are powered by its Express-1 AI model. It was trained only on content produced in-house, avoiding false data (数据). Riparbelli explained that the company hired thousands of actors to record videos for the model to ensure exactness. The show presented an avatar reacting to words like “I am happy”. The avatars’ speech style is more natural than previous models. Riparbelli said “Whether the conversation is cheerful or serious, our avatars change their performance accordingly, showing a level of care and understanding that was once the special area of human actors.” The possible misuse of this technology is a concern, especially considering the risks of deepfake (深度伪造) technology. “We’ve taken additional steps to prevent the misuse of our technology, including updating our policies to limit the type of content people can make, working on the early finding of dishonest actors, and increasing the teams that work on AI safety,” the company said in an announcement. Synthesia believes that Expressive Avatars will help businesses produce videos that are not only informative but also caring. Riparbelli said “I think we’ re looking at an important shift in capabilities within the next six to nine months.” 8. What is special about Expressive Avatars? A. They show facial expressions. B. They are more human-like. C. They can update themselves. D. They are good at language translation. 9. What does Synthesia use to train its Express-1 AI model? A. Videos of real actors. B. Data from the Internet. C. Sounds of other AI robots. D. Speeches from previous models. 10. Why is Synthesia’s announcement mentioned in paragraph 5? A. To list some examples of misuses. B. To explain its advantages in technology. C. To show its efforts to deal with the risks. D. To encourage users to create more content. 11. What is the author’s attitude towards the Expressive Avatars technology? A. Objective. B. Doubtful. C. Confident. D. Uncertain. 【答案】8. B 9. A 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了Synthesia公司开发的Expressive Avatars技术，该技术通过改进的面部表情和人类般的声音，使虚拟形象更加逼真，并展示了其在商业应用中的潜力，同时提到了公司为防止技术滥用所采取的措施。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“These avatars are part of what Synthesia calls its ‘digital actors’. They have improved facial expressions and human-like voices-an upgrade from other AI systems’ robotic sounds.(这些虚拟形象是Synthesia所称的“数字演员”的一部分。它们拥有改进的面部表情和人类般的声音——这是对其他AI系统机械声音的升级)”可知，Expressive Avatars拥有改进的面部表情和人类般的声音，所以它的特别之处在于它们更加逼真，更像人类。故选B项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Riparbelli explained that the company hired thousands of actors to record videos for the model to ensure exactness.(Riparbelli解释说，公司雇佣了数千名演员为模型录制视频，以确保准确性)”可知，Synthesia使用真实演员的视频来训练其Express-1 AI模型。故选A项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中Synthesia的的公告“We’ve taken additional steps to prevent the misuse of our technology, including updating our policies to limit the type of content people can make, working on the early finding of dishonest actors, and increasing the teams that work on AI safety.(我们已经采取了额外措施来防止技术的滥用，包括更新政策以限制人们可以制作的内容类型，致力于早期发现不诚实的演员，并增加负责AI安全的团队)”可推知，提到Synthesia的公告是为了展示其应对技术风险的努力。故选C项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据全文内容，尤其是第一段中的“These avatars are part of what Synthesia calls its ‘digital actors’. They have improved facial expressions and human-like voices-an upgrade from other AI systems’ robotic sounds.(这些虚拟形象是Synthesia所称的“数字演员”的一部分。它们拥有改进的面部表情和人类般的声音——这是对其他AI系统机械声音的升级)”和第五段中的“We’ve taken additional steps to prevent the misuse of our technology, including updating our policies to limit the type of content people can make, working on the early finding of dishonest actors, and increasing the teams that work on AI safety.(我们已经采取了额外措施来防止技术的滥用，包括更新政策以限制人们可以制作的内容类型，致力于早期发现不诚实的演员，并增加负责AI安全的团队)”可知，作者既介绍了Expressive Avatars技术的优势，也提到了其潜在的滥用风险，并客观地陈述了公司为防止滥用所采取的措施。因此，作者的态度是客观的。故选A项。 D Smart driving, which has been a buzzword in China for quite some time, is gaining further attention, as the government and car companies have called for cautious use of the vague (模糊的) term. Vehicle automation is divided into six levels, from Level 0 to 5, according to the Society of Automotive Engineers. Functions available in passenger vehicles in China are Level 2, usually known as driving-assist functions, but many carmakers refer to them as smart driving in marketing campaigns, which sound more advanced than they actually are. A great number of car buyers tend to buy into the hype (炒作) as well, believing that their cars are capable of autonomous driving, which in fact belongs to Level 4 or 5. At a technology meeting on Wednesday, Voyah CEO Lu Fang said carmakers should let car buyers know the capabilities of the specific models they choose. “Safety is the baseline. They must know what their vehicles can do. Also, you shall never confuse them with those vague ideas,” said Lu. “The very purpose of tools of transport is to move things and people from point A to point B safely. So safety is a topic you can never avoid.” he said. In a previous interview, Lu said he sometimes got angry at the videos that went viral online, where some bragged about how smart their vehicles were. “Safety is the best policy.” said Yu Chengdong, a Huawei executive, when he introduced new models on Wednesday. On the same day, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology organized a meeting and told automakers that they must thoroughly test advanced driver assistance systems, clearly define system boundaries and safety response measures, and avoid misleading marketing. They must also fulfill their duty to inform users, and take full responsibility for product quality and safety. Since last year, the popularity of smart driving technologies have seen explosive growth. In 2024, 8.67 million passenger vehicles in the Chinese market were delivered with Level 2 systems, accounting for more than 41 percent of the total. 12. Which level should a car at least reach to have the ability to drive autonomously? A. Level 0. B. Level 3. C. Level 4. D. Level 5. 13. Why do carmakers call Level 2 functions smart driving in marketing? A. To accurately describe the functions of their vehicles. B. To follow the industry standards of smart driving vehicles. C. To make their products seem more advanced and attractive. D. To confirm Level 2 functions are actually equal to smart driving. 14. Which can replace the underlined phrase “bragged about” in paragraph 3? A. Showed off. B. Complained about. C. Reflected on. D. Commented on. 15. What can be learned from the passages? A. More car buyers will be misled by smart driving carmakers. B. The government’s measures will stop the hype of smart driving. C. The development of smart-driving technologies will slow down. D. Carmakers continuing misleading consumers might be punished. 【答案】12. C 13. C 14. A 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述智能驾驶术语被炒作及政府车企的应对措施。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“A great number of car buyers tend to buy into the hype (炒作) as well, believing that their cars are capable of autonomous driving, which in fact belongs to Level 4 or 5.(许多购车者也倾向于相信炒作，认为他们的汽车具备自动驾驶能力，而这实际上属于4级或5级)”可知，汽车至少要达到4级才能具备自动驾驶能力。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Functions available in passenger vehicles in China are Level 2, usually known as driving-assist functions, but many carmakers refer to them as smart driving in marketing campaigns, which sound more advanced than they actually are.(在中国，乘用车可用的功能是2级，通常被称为驾驶辅助功能，但许多汽车制造商在营销活动中将其称为智能驾驶，这听起来比实际更先进)”可知，汽车制造商在营销中将2级功能称为智能驾驶是为了使他们的产品看起来更先进、更有吸引力。故选C。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句“In a previous interview, Lu said he sometimes got angry at the videos that went viral online, where some bragged about how smart their vehicles were.(在之前的一次采访中，卢表示，他有时会对网上疯传的视频感到愤怒，视频中一些人bragged about他们的车有多智能)”可知，卢感到愤怒，是因为他觉得网上一些人过分炫耀自己的车有多智能，所以“bragged about”的意思是“炫耀”，与“Showed off”意思相近。故选A。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“On the same day, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology organized a meeting and told automakers that they must thoroughly test advanced driver assistance systems, clearly define system boundaries and safety response measures, and avoid misleading marketing. They must also fulfill their duty to inform users, and take full responsibility for product quality and safety.(同一天，工业和信息化部组织了一次会议，并告诉汽车制造商，他们必须彻底测试高级驾驶辅助系统，明确界定系统边界和安全响应措施，并避免误导性营销。他们还必须履行告知用户的义务，并对产品质量和安全承担全部责任)”可推知，如果汽车制造商继续误导消费者，他们可能会受到惩罚。故选D。 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可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 As deadly wildfires continue to spread through California, it now seems important to understand how wildfires work. ____16____ Though the exact source of wildfires is unclear, authorities have stated that 95% of fires in California are started by people. Experts aren’t yet able to predict wildfire outbreaks. ____17____ Firefighters refer to it as the fire triangle (火灾三要素): fuel, oxygen, and a heat source. Four fifths of wildfires are started by people, but drought and strong winds can create the perfect conditions for a disaster. Worldwide, wildfire smoke causes 339,000 deaths per year. ____18____ Particles (微粒) in the air that may be deadly and extremely small can thicken the blood. Smoke also contains carbon monoxide, causing long-lasting damage to the heart. ____19____ In northern forests which store more carbon than any other land ecosystem, climate change is causing wildfires to occur more frequently, further speeding up the release of carbon and worsening global warming. However, wildlife tends to have a very different relationship with fire. ____20____ For example, some birds will fly in to feed on insects in dead trees. That’s not to say, all wild animals call fire a friend — there are some who can’t escape the quickly spreading flames. Slow-moving animals such as koalas, whose nature is to hide into a tree, may end up caught. In this case, wildlife falls victim to climate change tragically. A. And it is more important to know how to prevent wildfires. B. Besides health problems, forest fires actually have the ability to heat up the entire planet. C. Some have adapted to live with it, and some even grow better after fires. D. Wildfires have damaging effects on the habitats of wildlife. E. However, there are three conditions that must be present in order for a wildfire to burn. F. Sharp increases in asthma (哮喘) attacks have been reported when smoke covers the places where people live. G. Of equal importance is to realize the long-term effects of wildfires on our health and the environment. 【答案】16. G 17. E 18. F 19. B 20. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍加州野火成因、危害以及野火对不同野生动物带来的不同影响。 【16题详解】 由上文“As deadly wildfires continue to spread through California, it now seems important to understand how wildfires work.(致命野火持续在加州蔓延，了解野火如何形成十分重要。)”和下文“Firefighters refer to it as the fire triangle: fuel, oxygen, and a heat source.(消防员将其称作火灾三要素：可燃物、氧气、热源)”、“Worldwide, wildfire smoke causes 339,000 deaths per year.(全球每年有33.9万人因野火烟尘丧生)”可知，上文提出要了解野火原理，下文介绍了野火的引发原因、影响。本空应强调认识野火长期影响的重要性。G项“同等重要的是认识野火对健康与环境的长期影响”承接上文，自然开启下文多方面介绍危害的内容。 【17题详解】 由下文“Firefighters refer to it as the fire triangle: fuel, oxygen, and a heat source.(消防员将其称作火灾三要素：可燃物、氧气、热源)”可知，本空应引出下文关于野火燃烧条件的解释。E选项“但野火燃烧必须同时具备三个条件”能引出下文，符合语境。 【18题详解】 由上文“Worldwide, wildfire smoke causes 339,000 deaths per year.(全球每年有33.9万人因野火烟尘丧生)”可知，本段围绕烟尘危害人体健康展开，F选项“烟尘笼罩居住区时，哮喘病发作病例急剧增多”承接烟尘危害的话题，符合语境。 【19题详解】 由下文“In northern forests which store more carbon than any other land ecosystem, climate change is causing wildfires to occur more frequently, further speeding up the release of carbon and worsening global warming.(北部森林的碳储量高于其他任何陆地生态系统，受气候变化影响，野火愈发频发，这会进一步加速碳排放，加剧全球变暖。)”可知，下文讲述野火加剧全球变暖，本段讨论的是野火对地球气候的影响。B选项“除健康危害外，森林火灾还会使全球气温升高”承接上段烟尘危害人体健康，引出本段关于野火加剧全球变暖的阐述，符合语境。 【20题详解】 由上文“However, wildlife tends to have a very different relationship with fire.(然而野生动物和火有着截然不同的关系)”及下文“For example, some birds will fly in to feed on insects in dead trees.(例如部分鸟类飞来取食枯树中的虫子)”可知，后文举例部分动物受益于火灾，本空应说明某些野生动物适应了火灾甚至从中受益。C 选项“一些动物适应伴火生存，部分灾后长势更好”引出举例内容，符合语境。 第三部分 语言运用（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，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 When I was 45, the factory I worked at closed down.

I was not sure at first. Although I loved art, I had never thought of myself as a particularly talented painter. I was more of a person who drew simple pictures in my notebook during boring classes. My family was not wealthy, and art supplies were costly. I often had to use old, worn-out brushes and faded paints. My teacher saw potential in me that I didn’t see in myself. She said, “Your small drawings have a unique charm. With a bit of effort and practice, you could create something truly remarkable.” Her words gave me much hope. Encouraged, I decided to give it a try. I chose the theme of “The Beauty of the City at Night” for my painting. I imagined a cityscape (城市风光) filled with twinkling lights, bustling (繁忙的) streets, and the shape of towering buildings against the dark sky. But as I started painting, I faced a good many challenges. The colors didn’t mix in the way I wanted them to, and my brushstrokes seemed clumsy. I was on the edge of giving up several times. However, each time I thought about my teacher’s words, I gathered the courage to keep going. I spent hours in the school art room, observing other students’ techniques, and practicing different painting methods. When I finally finished the painting and showed it to my teacher, she smiled and said, “It’s a great start. But I know you can make it even better. Refine (改进) the details, and play with the contrast of light and shadow.” I took her advice and worked on the painting day and night. By the time I handed it in, I had poured my heart and soul into it. Whether I won or not, I felt a sense of achievement just from the process. 46. 选词填空 从下面方框中选择恰当的词，并用正确形式填入文本图示中，每词限用一次，有两词为多余选项。 afraid join consider unlucky theme improve suggestion carry follow proud encourage win My art teacher invited me to ______ in a school-wide painting competition. → I loved art but I was ______ to participate in the competition. ↓ ↓ Because of my teacher’s ______, I decided to have a try. → I chose “the beauty of the city at night” as the ______ of my painting. ↓ ↓ When I started painting, I faced many challenges and even ______ giving up. → However, my teacher’s words gave me courage to ______ on. ↓ ↓ I spent hours ______ my techniques in the school art room. → Eventually, when my teacher saw my finished painting, she praised it and gave me some ______ to make it better. ↓ ↓ I ______ her advice and worked on the painting day and night. → I handed in the painting and I was ______ of myself. 请根据文本回答下面的问题。 47.

Although I loved art, I had never thought of myself as a particularly talented painter.(起初我犹豫不决，虽然热爱美术，但我自认没有绘画天赋。)”可知，作者起初不敢参赛。be afraid to do sth.“害怕做某事”，本空用形容词afraid，作表语。 ③考查名词。由文章第二段中“Her words gave me much hope. Encouraged, I decided to give it a try.(她的话给了我希望，在她的鼓励下我决定试一试。)”可知，在老师的鼓励下作者决定尝试，空前为名词所有格teacher’s，需填名词encouragement，作宾语。 ④考查名词。由文章第三段中“I chose the theme of “The Beauty of the City at Night” for my painting.(我为画作选择了“城市夜景之美”的主题。)”可知，作者将该内容定为画作主题，用名词theme作宾语。 ⑤考查动词时态。由文章第三段中“I was on the edge of giving up several times.(我好几次差点放弃。)”可知，作者曾考虑放弃。本空用动词consider，描述过去发生的事情，用一般过去时，谓语用过去式considered。 ⑥考查动词短语。由文章第三段中“However, each time I thought about my teacher’s words, I gathered the courage to keep going.(然而，每当想起老师的话语，我便重新鼓起勇气继续坚持。)”可知，作者鼓起勇气坚持下去，carry on为固定搭配，表示“坚持，继续”，位于不定式符号to后，用动词原形。 ⑦考查非谓语动词。由文章第三段中“I spent hours in the school art room, observing other students’ techniques, and practicing different painting methods.(我在美术室花费数小时学习技巧、练习绘画方式。)”可知，作者提升绘画技巧。用动词improve，spend time (in) doing sth.“花时间做某事”，本空用动名词improving，作宾语。 ⑧考查名词复数。由文章第四段中“When I finally finished the painting and showed it to my teacher, she smiled and said, “It’s a great start. But I know you can make it even better. Refine (改进) the details, and play with the contrast of light and shadow.” I took her advice and worked on the painting day and night.(当我终于完成画作并拿给老师看时，她微笑着说：“这是个很好的开始。但我知道你能让它更出色。精修细节，处理好光影对比。”我听从了她的建议，夜以继日地修改这幅画。)”可知，老师给出多条改进建议。本空用名词suggestion的复数形式，作宾语。 ⑨考查动词时态。由文章第四段中“I took her advice and worked on the painting day and night.(我听从了她的建议，夜以继日地修改这幅画。)”可知，作者听从了老师的建议，用动词follow，描述过去发生的事情，用一般过去时，谓语用过去式followed。 ⑩考查形容词。由文章第四段中“Whether I won or not, I felt a sense of achievement just from the process.(无论是否获奖，我都收获了成就感。)”可知，作者为自己感到自豪。本空用形容词proud，作表语。 【47题详解】 考查细节理解。由文章第一段中“I was not sure at first. Although I loved art, I had never thought of myself as a particularly talented painter. I was more of a person who drew simple pictures in my notebook during boring classes. My family was not wealthy, and art supplies were costly. I often had to use old, worn-out brushes and faded paints.(起初我犹豫不决，虽然热爱美术，但我自认没有绘画天赋。我只是那种在无聊课堂上用笔记本画简单涂鸦的人。由于家境不宽裕，而美术用品价格昂贵，我常常只能用些破旧的画笔和褪色的颜料。)”可知，作者起初不自信，认为自己没有天赋且缺少优质绘画工具。 【48题详解】 考查细节理解。由文章第四段中“When I finally finished the painting and showed it to my teacher, she smiled and said, “It’s a great start. But I know you can make it even better. Refine (改进) the details, and play with the contrast of light and shadow.” I took her advice and worked on the painting day and night.(当我终于完成画作并拿给老师看时，她微笑着说：“这是个很好的开始。但我知道你能让它更出色。精修细节，处理好光影对比。”我听从了她的建议，夜以继日地修改这幅画。)”可知，作者听从老师建议，日夜打磨画作、优化细节与光影。 【49题详解】 开放性题目，此题要求回答：如果作者赢得了比赛，他会对老师说些什么？答案不唯一，合理即可。例如：感谢你的鼓励与指导，没有你我不可能取得成功。 第五部分 写作（满分20分） 50. 假定你是某国际学校的学生会主席李华，你校正在开展图书交换活动(Book Exchange Event)。请你代表学生会用英语写一封倡议书，呼吁大家积极参与。内容包括： 1. 活动的目的；2. 活动的起止时间、地点及开展方式；3. 发出倡议。 注意：1. 写作词数应为80个左右；2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Dear fellow students, ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Student Union 【答案】Dear fellow students, We are excited to invite you to our upcoming Book Exchange Event!

B Kwane Stewart stepped outside a Modesto, California, convenience store with his morning coffee and noticed a homeless man, Tom Bissell, sitting with his back against the building. A small dog sat in his lap. Stewart, a vet (兽医) at an animal hospital, noticed its injured fur and skin. He approached the man and offered to bring medication for the dog's skin, a gift the man readily accepted. “I remember returning a week later, and the hair was coming back the rash (皮疹) was gone,” Stewart told the Modesto Bee. Tom said his dog was finally sleeping at night again because it was no longer feeling restless for its illness. “‘And you know,’ he said, ‘I’m sleeping at night.’ He started to cry, and that got me touched too,” Stewart says. Stewart was addicted. “When you do good deeds, there is something you get in return that feels much larger. I knew I wanted to keep doing it, "he told medium.com. Today, Stewart, 50, has his own practice in town, yet he still finds time for street pets. He's helped roughly 400 animals since 2011. There's a great need for his kind of help. About 25 percent of Modesto's homeless population owns a pet, but there are few healthcare options available to them. To fill that gap, Stewart can often be found wandering dark streets and underpasses (地下通道), anywhere he thinks the homeless might be camped out. Stewart pays for almost all of it out of his own pocket. For those expensive procedures, he set up a GoFundMe account to help cover treatment costs. “I don't ever want to have to turn anybody away,” he explains. “To have somebody like Dr. Stewart come out here to take care of my dog just because it's the right thing to do, that's huge.” Joe, one of the dog owners, said in a video that Stewart posted on the GoFundMe page. 4. How did Kwane Stewart help Tom Bissell's dog? A. By offering mental comfort. B. By providing medical treatment. C. By introducing some famous vets. D. By bringing it to an animal hospital. 5. What directly leads to Kwane Stewart's further kindness? A. The professional habit of a vet. B. The tough situation the homeless faced. C. The requirements from the animal hospital. D. The inspiration from offering help to Tom. 6. Which of the following can best describe Kwane Stewart? A. Rich and caring. B. Smart and humorous. C. Kind and generous. D. Brave and intelligent. 7. What's the text mainly about? A. Vets are in great need. B. Stewart rose to fame overnight. C. Street pets deserve due treatment. D. A vet's kind act brings big impact. C AI generators (生成器) and the avatars they create are developing rapidly. UK-based company Synthesia aims to move this technology further. Recently, it announced Expressive Avatars, which can show a lot of lifelike human feelings. These avatars are part of what Synthesia calls its “digital actors”. They have improved facial expressions and human-like voices-an upgrade from other AIsystems’ robotic sounds. Synthesia offers more than 160 AI avatars, under the agreement of real human actors. Users can produce videos in more than 130 languages. CEO Victor Riparbelli said that they are not coming for Hollywood; instead, they focus on companies and B2B content, which need communication videos that are easy-to-create and human-like, such as in areas like healthcare. Synthesia’s Expressive Avatars are powered by its Express-1 AI model. It was trained only on content produced in-house, avoiding false data (数据). Riparbelli explained that the company hired thousands of actors to record videos for the model to ensure exactness. The show presented an avatar reacting to words like “I am happy”. The avatars’ speech style is more natural than previous models. Riparbelli said “Whether the conversation is cheerful or serious, our avatars change their performance accordingly, showing a level of care and understanding that was once the special area of human actors.” The possible misuse of this technology is a concern, especially considering the risks of deepfake (深度伪造) technology. “We’ve taken additional steps to prevent the misuse of our technology, including updating our policies to limit the type of content people can make, working on the early finding of dishonest actors, and increasing the teams that work on AI safety,” the company said in an announcement. Synthesia believes that Expressive Avatars will help businesses produce videos that are not only informative but also caring.

D Smart driving, which has been a buzzword in China for quite some time, is gaining further attention, as the government and car companies have called for cautious use of the vague (模糊的) term. Vehicle automation is divided into six levels, from Level 0 to 5, according to the Society of Automotive Engineers. Functions available in passenger vehicles in China are Level 2, usually known as driving-assist functions, but many carmakers refer to them as smart driving in marketing campaigns, which sound more advanced than they actually are. A great number of car buyers tend to buy into the hype (炒作) as well, believing that their cars are capable of autonomous driving, which in fact belongs to Level 4 or 5. At a technology meeting on Wednesday, Voyah CEO Lu Fang said carmakers should let car buyers know the capabilities of the specific models they choose. “Safety is the baseline. They must know what their vehicles can do. Also, you shall never confuse them with those vague ideas,” said Lu. “The very purpose of tools of transport is to move things and people from point A to point B safely. So safety is a topic you can never avoid.” he said. In a previous interview, Lu said he sometimes got angry at the videos that went viral online, where some bragged about how smart their vehicles were. “Safety is the best policy.” said Yu Chengdong, a Huawei executive, when he introduced new models on Wednesday. On the same day, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology organized a meeting and told automakers that they must thoroughly test advanced driver assistance systems, clearly define system boundaries and safety response measures, and avoid misleading marketing. They must also fulfill their duty to inform users, and take full responsibility for product quality and safety. Since last year, the popularity of smart driving technologies have seen explosive growth. In 2024, 8.67 million passenger vehicles in the Chinese market were delivered with Level 2 systems, accounting for more than 41 percent of the total. 12. Which level should a car at least reach to have the ability to drive autonomously? A. Level 0. B. Level 3. C. Level 4. D. Level 5. 13. Why do carmakers call Level 2 functions smart driving in marketing? A. To accurately describe the functions of their vehicles. B. To follow the industry standards of smart driving vehicles. C. To make their products seem more advanced and attractive. D. To confirm Level 2 functions are actually equal to smart driving. 14. Which can replace the underlined phrase “bragged about” in paragraph 3? A. Showed off. B. Complained about. C. Reflected on. D. Commented on. 15. What can be learned from the passages? A. More car buyers will be misled by smart driving carmakers. B. The government’s measures will stop the hype of smart driving. C. The development of smart-driving technologies will slow down. D. Carmakers continuing misleading consumers might be punished. 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可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 As deadly wildfires continue to spread through California, it now seems important to understand how wildfires work. ____16____ Though the exact source of wildfires is unclear, authorities have stated that 95% of fires in California are started by people. Experts aren’t yet able to predict wildfire outbreaks. ____17____ Firefighters refer to it as the fire triangle (火灾三要素): fuel, oxygen, and a heat source.

I was not sure at first. Although I loved art, I had never thought of myself as a particularly talented painter. I was more of a person who drew simple pictures in my notebook during boring classes. My family was not wealthy, and art supplies were costly. I often had to use old, worn-out brushes and faded paints. My teacher saw potential in me that I didn’t see in myself. She said, “Your small drawings have a unique charm. With a bit of effort and practice, you could create something truly remarkable.” Her words gave me much hope. Encouraged, I decided to give it a try. I chose the theme of “The Beauty of the City at Night” for my painting. I imagined a cityscape (城市风光) filled with twinkling lights, bustling (繁忙的) streets, and the shape of towering buildings against the dark sky. But as I started painting, I faced a good many challenges. The colors didn’t mix in the way I wanted them to, and my brushstrokes seemed clumsy. I was on the edge of giving up several times. However, each time I thought about my teacher’s words, I gathered the courage to keep going. I spent hours in the school art room, observing other students’ techniques, and practicing different painting methods. When I finally finished the painting and showed it to my teacher, she smiled and said, “It’s a great start. But I know you can make it even better. Refine (改进) the details, and play with the contrast of light and shadow.” I took her advice and worked on the painting day and night. By the time I handed it in, I had poured my heart and soul into it. Whether I won or not, I felt a sense of achievement just from the process. 46. 选词填空 从下面方框中选择恰当的词，并用正确形式填入文本图示中，每词限用一次，有两词为多余选项。 afraid join consider unlucky theme improve suggestion carry follow proud encourage win My art teacher invited me to ______ in a school-wide painting competition. → I loved art but I was ______ to participate in the competition. ↓ ↓ Because of my teacher’s ______, I decided to have a try. → I chose “the beauty of the city at night” as the ______ of my painting. ↓ ↓ When I started painting, I faced many challenges and even ______ giving up. → However, my teacher’s words gave me courage to ______ on. ↓ ↓ I spent hours ______ my techniques in the school art room. → Eventually, when my teacher saw my finished painting, she praised it and gave me some ______ to make it better. ↓ ↓ I ______ her advice and worked on the painting day and night. → I handed in the painting and I was ______ of myself. 请根据文本回答下面的问题。 47.
