The last four or five times she had stopped in here, she had also been the only customer. That night, Chandra told her family about the situation at the bookstore. Her brother Pete said, “The bookstore needs more people. How about starting a book club? People could meet in the store to discuss a book they’ve all read. If they buy it at the store, they’ll receive a discount (折扣).” “That’s great!”Chandra said excitedly. “How about having some writers come and do a book signing? I even have an idea for the first writer. Mr. Fletcher, my math teacher, writes children’s books. I’m sure he would be willing to help. I could put up fliers (传单) about the event at my school.” The next day, Chandra shared her thoughts with Mrs. Lee, the bookstore owner. Mrs. Lee seemed unsure at first, but by the time Chandra finished, she was smiling. “I’ll try your ideas, but I need some help. Someone will have to lead the book club discussions. Also, I’ll need help advertising these events because I’ve never been good at such things.” Chandra promised that she would help. She asked Mr. Fletcher if he would read and sign some of his books at Books‘n’More, and he happily agreed. A date was chosen, and Chandra threw herself into the preparations. She personally invited all her friends, the other teachers, and even the school headmaster. Finally, everything was ready for the big night. Mrs. Lee opened the event. “Before I introduce tonight’s writer, I must thank a young lady named Chandra Phillips. This exciting evening was mostly managed by her. If she were a little older, I would have her as my advertising director,” said Mrs. Lee. The crowd laughed and clapped (鼓掌). As Mr. Fletcher began to read from his latest book, Mrs. Lee took a seat next to Chandra. “Could I really work here someday?” Chandra asked. Mrs. Lee nodded with a smile. Chandra tried to listen to Mr. Fletcher, but her mind swam with even more ways to help Books ‘n’ More be successful. After all, she had to protect her future job! 24.

They are also trying to find out what we can do about it. People on social media sometimes share questionable claims (言论). Maybe they think the claim is surprising or interesting. But how the claim is presented can influence how many people believe it. People are likely to think that video is the most believable, noted S. Shyam Sundar. He works at Pennsylvania State University. Sundar and his team showed fake (假的) news stories to 180 people. One fake story claimed plastic was used to make rice. One version (版本) of the rice story was sent as text only. One version was a sound recording. The third had a video. It showed a man feeding plastic sheets into a machine. The tested people graded the video story as the most believable. “Seeing is believing. People are more likely to accept misinformation when they see something in a video,” Sundar said. That’s especially true with the rise of deepfake technologies, which create fake but visually (视觉上) believable videos. Another big problem with fake news is how easily it gets into our brains. We often find claims believable that go along with the values we hold. Some people are unlikely to question things that fit with what they already believe. Why? Because our values can influence how we process information. So how can we slow the spread of fake news? It might just require getting people to stop and think. Two scientists, Gordon Pennycook and David Rand, worked together on a study. They showed both real news headlines and fake ones to 3,500 people. They tested these people’s analytical reasoning (分析推理). People who scored higher on the analytical tests were less likely to mistake fake news headlines as being correct. In other words, lazy thinking helps drive someone’s acceptance of fake news. When we recognize something untrue, we should debunk (揭穿) it. Researchers have some tips: ·Check the information from trustworthy sources (来源). Look at different sources to see if they agree. ·Once you correct misinformation with a true fact, explain why the misinformation is wrong. ·Speak up as soon as possible when you see misinformation being shared on social media. Not paying attention can help fake news spread. Fortunately, there’s a simple solution—stop shutting off our brains so much. By thinking carefully and sharing real information, we can help everyone stay informed with facts. 27. The purpose of Sundar and his team’s study is to find out ________. A. what ways can be used to spread news B. how fake news spreads through different media C. what kind of people are likely to believe fake news D. how the presentation of news influences its believability 28. What can we learn from the passage? A. People are likely to believe information that matches their values. B. Debunking bad information depends heavily on technology. C. The brain has a weak ability to recognize misinformation. D. Lazy thinkers often slow down the spread of fake news. 29. What is the passage mainly about? A. The causes of fake news and its bad influences. B. The spread of fake news and people’s complaints about it. C. The reasons for believing fake news and ways to deal with it. D. The problems caused by fake news and the necessity to recognize it. 【答案】27. D 28. A 29. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了人们很容易被虚假信息所骗的一些原因和怎样辨别查找出信息真假。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据“But how the claim is presented can influence how many people believe it.”以及第三段“The third had a video. It showed a man feeding plastic sheets into a machine. The tested people graded the video story as the most believable.”可知， Sundar和他的团队实验证明，眼见为实，当人们在视频中看到某些东西时，他们更容易接受错误信息；据此可推断，该团体研究的目的是找出新闻的呈现方式如何影响其可信度。故选D。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据“We often find claims believable that go along with the values we hold. Some people are unlikely to question things that fit with what they already believe. Why? Because our values can influence how we process information.”可知，我们经常发现与我们持有的价值观相一致的主张是可信的，因为我们的价值观会影响我们处理信息的方式。故选A。 【29题详解】 主旨大意题。综合全文可知，本文主要介绍了人们很容易被虚假信息所骗的一些原因以及如何辨别信息真假的方法和建议。故选C。 D As artificial intelligence (AI) becomes more common in creative work, people are asking an important question: Is AI actually helping to improve human creativity, or might it be harming it? Recent studies show that the answer isn’t simple—AI helps in some ways but causes problems in others. To understand how AI ideas influence human creativity, researchers did an experiment involving over 800 people from 40 countries. In the experiment, people were asked to think of new uses for common objects like a piece of paper or a cup. Before coming up with their own ideas, they were shown some example ideas. Some people were shown with the examples all given by humans while others were exposed to some or all the examples provided by AI. The goal was to see how these different situations would influence the creativity and variety (多样化) of the ideas people produced. The experiment showed several interesting findings. First, viewing AI ideas did change what people created, but it didn’t make their ideas better—just different. Second, when the groups saw lots of AI examples, they came up with more kinds of ideas overall. This shows that AI can help the groups think of more diverse solutions when working together. Third, AI examples helped stop the groups from getting stuck (卡住) on the same ideas—instead, they continued to generate (生成) new and different ideas over time. Finally, self-confidence matters. People who saw themselves as very creative were less influenced by knowing whether an idea came from AI or human. Their belief in their own creativity seemed to protect them from being overly influenced by AI ideas. However, there was also a worrying finding. When creative tasks became difficult, people were more likely to copy AI ideas more often. This suggests we might become too dependent on AI for challenging creative work. So what do these mean to us? AI can be useful for helping groups generate more different kinds of ideas and avoid creativity blocks, but it doesn’t make each person more creative. This means we should have a balanced way—use AI as a helpful partner while still developing our own imagination and creative abilities. As AI continues to grow, learning to use it wisely will be an important skill for all of us. 30. What is true about the experiment according to Paragraph 2? A. Not all the example ideas in it were provided by AI. B. Common objects couldn’t be used to test creativity. C. 800 people viewed AI’s ideas before the experiment. D. People needed to compare their own ideas with AI’s. 31. What does the word “diverse” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean? A. Creative. B. Different. C. Strange. D. Acceptable. 32. According to the passage, what is a good example of using AI wisely? A. Avoiding using AI in difficult situations. B. Letting AI decide once we meet problems. C. Believing in ourselves instead of trusting AI. D. Asking AI for ideas but finishing the task on our own. 33. Which of the following is the best title for this passage? A. The Harm of AI on Human Creativity B. AI’s Role in Performing Creative Tasks C. The Benefits of AI to Creative Thinking D. The Influence of AI on Human Creativity 【答案】30. A 31. B 32. D 33. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要探讨了人工智能对人类创造力的影响，通过实验分析了AI在创意工作中的利弊，并提出了明智使用AI的建议。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Some people were shown with the examples all given by humans while others were exposed to some or all the examples provided by AI.”可知，实验中并非所有示例都是AI提供的，有些由人类提供。故选A。 【31题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“when the groups saw lots of AI examples, they came up with more kinds of ideas overall.”可知，看到AI示例的小组想出了更多种类的想法，因此diverse意为“不同的，多样的”。故选B。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“use AI as a helpful partner while still developing our own imagination and creative abilities.”可知，明智使用AI的方式是将其作为辅助伙伴，同时培养自身创造力，即“向AI寻求想法但独立完成任务”。故选D。 【33题详解】 最佳标题题。文章以“AI是否在提升或损害人类创造力”为核心，通过实验分析了AI对人类创造力的双向影响，因此最佳标题为“AI对人类创造力的影响”。故选D。 第二部分 阅读表达（第34-36题每题2分，第37题4分，共10分） Have you ever bought something without knowing what’s inside? That’s the fun of blind boxes—small, unopened packages that hide collectable toys or figures (人偶). You don’t know which one you’ll get until you open it. It’s just this kind of surprising joy that makes blind boxes so popular among teenagers and young adults. Each blind box belongs to a themed series, such as lovely animals, cartoon characters, or cute food items. All the boxes look the same from the outside, but inside lies a surprise. Some figures are common, while others are uncommon and hard to find. Many collectors feel excited every time they open a box, hoping to get that special figure they’ve been searching for. However, blind boxes are not just about the toys—they’re also about the experience. Collectors often meet and exchange figures in stores and share their excitement together. Some even record unboxing videos and post them on social media. For many, collecting blind boxes becomes a way to express creativity and personality. They decorate their rooms with their favorite figures, design small shelves for display, or use them in art projects. Through this shared interest, a small and friendly community is formed. But the excitement can become addictive (上瘾的), which is the main problem of buying blind boxes. Since you never know what’s inside, it’s easy to keep buying “just one more” box, hoping to find the uncommon one. Some people end up spending more than they planned. That’s why it’s important to set a budget (预算) and always remind yourself that collecting should bring joy, not pressure and waste. Blind boxes have become an important part of modern pop culture, combining (融合) art, design, and curiosity together in one small package. Whether you collect them or simply watch unboxing videos online, they remind us of the joy of discovery. Sometimes, the best part of life is the unknown— the little surprises waiting to be opened. As long as we open them with care, patience, and self-control, blind boxes can bring fun and creativity to our everyday lives. 34. What makes blind boxes popular among young adults? _______________________________________________ 35. According to the writer, what are blind boxes about? _______________________________________________ 36. What is the main problem of buying blind boxes? _______________________________________________ 37. Is it necessary to set a budget before buying blind boxes? Why? (Please give two reasons.) _______________________________________________ 【答案】34. The surprising joy of not knowing which collectable toy or figure you’ll get until you open it. 35. They are not just about the toys, but also about the experience (of collecting, exchanging figures and sharing excitement with others). 36. The excitement can become addictive, and some people may end up spending more than they planned. 37. Yes, it is. First, because the excitement of buying blind boxes can be addictive, a budget can prevent people from spending more than they planned. Second, a budget helps make sure that collecting blind boxes brings joy rather than pressure and waste. 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了盲盒的流行原因、内涵与社交体验，同时指出盲盒容易让人上瘾的问题，并给出理性消费的建议，最后点明盲盒在现代流行文化中的意义。 【34题详解】 根据第一段“It’s just this kind of surprising joy that makes blind boxes so popular among teenagers and young adults.”以及“You don’t know which one you’ll get until you open it.”可知，盲盒在年轻人中流行的原因是打开之前不知道会得到什么，这种意外的惊喜感吸引了他们。故填The surprising joy of not knowing which collectable toy or figure you’ll get until you open it. 【35题详解】 根据第三段“However, blind boxes are not just about the toys—they’re also about the experience.”可知，盲盒不仅关乎玩具本身，也关乎收藏、交流与分享的体验。故填They are not just about the toys, but also about the experience (of collecting, exchanging figures and sharing excitement with others). 【36题详解】 根据第四段“But the excitement can become addictive, which is the main problem of buying blind boxes.”以及“Some people end up spending more than they planned.”可知，购买盲盒的主要问题是这种兴奋感容易让人上瘾，导致人们超支消费。故填The excitement can become addictive, and some people may end up spending more than they planned. 【37题详解】 根据第四段“That’s why it’s important to set a budget and always remind yourself that collecting should bring joy, not pressure and waste.”可知，有必要做预算，原因有二：①盲盒的兴奋感容易让人上瘾，预算能避免超支；②预算能确保收藏盲盒带来的是快乐而非压力与浪费。故填Yes, it is. First, because the excitement of buying blind boxes can be addictive, a budget can prevent people from spending more than they planned. Second, a budget helps make sure that collecting blind boxes brings joy rather than pressure and waste. 38. 请根据中文和英文提示，完成一篇不少于50词的英语文段写作。文中已给出内容不计入总词数。所给提示词语仅供选用。请不要写出你的校名和姓名。 假如你是李华，你校英语公众号将推出以“科技”为主题的系列推送。请你用英文给公众号留言，介绍一个你认为最实用的设备 (device) 或应用程序 (app)，并描述它给工作和生活带来的便利。 提示词语： technology, communicate, learn, convenient, time-saving 提示问题： ●What device or app do you want to introduce? ●What do you use it to do? ●What benefits does it bring to you?

The last four or five times she had stopped in here, she had also been the only customer. That night, Chandra told her family about the situation at the bookstore. Her brother Pete said, “The bookstore needs more people. How about starting a book club? People could meet in the store to discuss a book they’ve all read. If they buy it at the store, they’ll receive a discount (折扣).” “That’s great!”Chandra said excitedly. “How about having some writers come and do a book signing? I even have an idea for the first writer. Mr. Fletcher, my math teacher, writes children’s books. I’m sure he would be willing to help. I could put up fliers (传单) about the event at my school.” The next day, Chandra shared her thoughts with Mrs. Lee, the bookstore owner. Mrs. Lee seemed unsure at first, but by the time Chandra finished, she was smiling. “I’ll try your ideas, but I need some help. Someone will have to lead the book club discussions. Also, I’ll need help advertising these events because I’ve never been good at such things.” Chandra promised that she would help. She asked Mr. Fletcher if he would read and sign some of his books at Books‘n’More, and he happily agreed. A date was chosen, and Chandra threw herself into the preparations. She personally invited all her friends, the other teachers, and even the school headmaster. Finally, everything was ready for the big night. Mrs. Lee opened the event. “Before I introduce tonight’s writer, I must thank a young lady named Chandra Phillips. This exciting evening was mostly managed by her. If she were a little older, I would have her as my advertising director,” said Mrs. Lee. The crowd laughed and clapped (鼓掌). As Mr. Fletcher began to read from his latest book, Mrs. Lee took a seat next to Chandra. “Could I really work here someday?” Chandra asked. Mrs. Lee nodded with a smile. Chandra tried to listen to Mr. Fletcher, but her mind swam with even more ways to help Books ‘n’ More be successful. After all, she had to protect her future job! 24. To attract more people to the bookstore, Chandra suggested ________. A. offering customers discounts B. holding a book signing event C. giving out fliers in the streets D. advertising the bookstore online 25. Which words can best describe Chandra? A. Careful and strict. B. Humorous and outgoing. C. Helpful and creative. D. Strong-minded and patient. 26. In Paragraph 6, the crowd’s laughter and clapping showed that they ________. A. recognized Chandra’s efforts B. enjoyed Mr. Fletcher’s reading C. felt happy for Mrs. Lee’s success D. were surprised at Chandra’s future role C Why do people fall for bad information? Scientists are trying to find that out. They are also trying to find out what we can do about it. People on social media sometimes share questionable claims (言论). Maybe they think the claim is surprising or interesting. But how the claim is presented can influence how many people believe it. People are likely to think that video is the most believable, noted S. Shyam Sundar. He works at Pennsylvania State University. Sundar and his team showed fake (假的) news stories to 180 people. One fake story claimed plastic was used to make rice. One version (版本) of the rice story was sent as text only. One version was a sound recording. The third had a video. It showed a man feeding plastic sheets into a machine. The tested people graded the video story as the most believable. “Seeing is believing. People are more likely to accept misinformation when they see something in a video,” Sundar said. That’s especially true with the rise of deepfake technologies, which create fake but visually (视觉上) believable videos. Another big problem with fake news is how easily it gets into our brains. We often find claims believable that go along with the values we hold. Some people are unlikely to question things that fit with what they already believe. Why? Because our values can influence how we process information. So how can we slow the spread of fake news? It might just require getting people to stop and think. Two scientists, Gordon Pennycook and David Rand, worked together on a study. They showed both real news headlines and fake ones to 3,500 people. They tested these people’s analytical reasoning (分析推理). People who scored higher on the analytical tests were less likely to mistake fake news headlines as being correct. In other words, lazy thinking helps drive someone’s acceptance of fake news. When we recognize something untrue, we should debunk (揭穿) it. Researchers have some tips: ·Check the information from trustworthy sources (来源). Look at different sources to see if they agree. ·Once you correct misinformation with a true fact, explain why the misinformation is wrong. ·Speak up as soon as possible when you see misinformation being shared on social media. Not paying attention can help fake news spread. Fortunately, there’s a simple solution—stop shutting off our brains so much. By thinking carefully and sharing real information, we can help everyone stay informed with facts. 27. The purpose of Sundar and his team’s study is to find out ________. A. what ways can be used to spread news B. how fake news spreads through different media C. what kind of people are likely to believe fake news D. how the presentation of news influences its believability 28. What can we learn from the passage? A. People are likely to believe information that matches their values. B. Debunking bad information depends heavily on technology. C. The brain has a weak ability to recognize misinformation. D. Lazy thinkers often slow down the spread of fake news. 29. What is the passage mainly about? A. The causes of fake news and its bad influences. B. The spread of fake news and people’s complaints about it. C. The reasons for believing fake news and ways to deal with it. D. The problems caused by fake news and the necessity to recognize it. D As artificial intelligence (AI) becomes more common in creative work, people are asking an important question: Is AI actually helping to improve human creativity, or might it be harming it? Recent studies show that the answer isn’t simple—AI helps in some ways but causes problems in others. To understand how AI ideas influence human creativity, researchers did an experiment involving over 800 people from 40 countries. In the experiment, people were asked to think of new uses for common objects like a piece of paper or a cup. Before coming up with their own ideas, they were shown some example ideas. Some people were shown with the examples all given by humans while others were exposed to some or all the examples provided by AI. The goal was to see how these different situations would influence the creativity and variety (多样化) of the ideas people produced. The experiment showed several interesting findings. First, viewing AI ideas did change what people created, but it didn’t make their ideas better—just different. Second, when the groups saw lots of AI examples, they came up with more kinds of ideas overall. This shows that AI can help the groups think of more diverse solutions when working together. Third, AI examples helped stop the groups from getting stuck (卡住) on the same ideas—instead, they continued to generate (生成) new and different ideas over time. Finally, self-confidence matters. People who saw themselves as very creative were less influenced by knowing whether an idea came from AI or human. Their belief in their own creativity seemed to protect them from being overly influenced by AI ideas. However, there was also a worrying finding. When creative tasks became difficult, people were more likely to copy AI ideas more often. This suggests we might become too dependent on AI for challenging creative work. So what do these mean to us? AI can be useful for helping groups generate more different kinds of ideas and avoid creativity blocks, but it doesn’t make each person more creative. This means we should have a balanced way—use AI as a helpful partner while still developing our own imagination and creative abilities. As AI continues to grow, learning to use it wisely will be an important skill for all of us. 30. What is true about the experiment according to Paragraph 2? A. Not all the example ideas in it were provided by AI. B. Common objects couldn’t be used to test creativity. C. 800 people viewed AI’s ideas before the experiment. D. People needed to compare their own ideas with AI’s. 31. What does the word “diverse” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean? A. Creative. B. Different. C. Strange. D. Acceptable. 32. According to the passage, what is a good example of using AI wisely? A. Avoiding using AI in difficult situations. B. Letting AI decide once we meet problems. C. Believing in ourselves instead of trusting AI. D. Asking AI for ideas but finishing the task on our own. 33. Which of the following is the best title for this passage? A. The Harm of AI on Human Creativity B. AI’s Role in Performing Creative Tasks C. The Benefits of AI to Creative Thinking D. The Influence of AI on Human Creativity 第二部分 阅读表达（第34-36题每题2分，第37题4分，共10分） Have you ever bought something without knowing what’s inside? That’s the fun of blind boxes—small, unopened packages that hide collectable toys or figures (人偶). You don’t know which one you’ll get until you open it. It’s just this kind of surprising joy that makes blind boxes so popular among teenagers and young adults. Each blind box belongs to a themed series, such as lovely animals, cartoon characters, or cute food items. All the boxes look the same from the outside, but inside lies a surprise. Some figures are common, while others are uncommon and hard to find. Many collectors feel excited every time they open a box, hoping to get that special figure they’ve been searching for. However, blind boxes are not just about the toys—they’re also about the experience. Collectors often meet and exchange figures in stores and share their excitement together. Some even record unboxing videos and post them on social media. For many, collecting blind boxes becomes a way to express creativity and personality. They decorate their rooms with their favorite figures, design small shelves for display, or use them in art projects. Through this shared interest, a small and friendly community is formed. But the excitement can become addictive (上瘾的), which is the main problem of buying blind boxes. Since you never know what’s inside, it’s easy to keep buying “just one more” box, hoping to find the uncommon one. Some people end up spending more than they planned. That’s why it’s important to set a budget (预算) and always remind yourself that collecting should bring joy, not pressure and waste. Blind boxes have become an important part of modern pop culture, combining (融合) art, design, and curiosity together in one small package. Whether you collect them or simply watch unboxing videos online, they remind us of the joy of discovery. Sometimes, the best part of life is the unknown— the little surprises waiting to be opened. As long as we open them with care, patience, and self-control, blind boxes can bring fun and creativity to our everyday lives. 34. What makes blind boxes popular among young adults? _______________________________________________ 35. According to the writer, what are blind boxes about? _______________________________________________ 36. What is the main problem of buying blind boxes? _______________________________________________ 37. Is it necessary to set a budget before buying blind boxes? Why?
