Which of the following can be learned from the passage? A. Grammarly is primarily focused on helping improve spelling and grammar in writing. B. Thesaurus offers a large collection of word entries to enhance vocabulary. C. The Hemingway App’s premium desktop software is available for a one-time payment of $9.99. D. The Hemingway App assigns a distinct color to each type of grammar mistake it detects in the text. 2. If you expect to objectively assess how effectively your content will connect with your readers, you are likely to turn to______. A. Grammarly B. Thesaurus C. Hemingway App D. all 3. Who are probably NOT the intended readers of this passage? A. Fiction writers looking for real life materials to spark their creativity. B. Non-native English speakers wanting to improve their writing proficiency. C. Language enthusiasts interested in exploring different web-based tools. D. Magazine editors whose role involves reviewing and polishing manuscripts. B If you look up in the sky, you probably see, at some point, an aircraft. And behind that aircraft are white, fluffy streaks (条纹). And that's what we call a contrail. Contrails are made up of ice crystals that form when aircraft engines emit exhaust (废气) that hits the cold air. The ice crystals reflect incoming light from the sun back into space, which has a cooling effect on the atmosphere. But the contrails also stop heat coming up from the ground from escaping into space. It is reflected back down toward the ground. And so that's a warming effect. Stettler, an engineer from Imperial College London, says, on balance, contrails warm the atmosphere more than they cool it. And that's mainly because the cooling effect due to reflecting of sunlight can only happen during the day, when the sun's shining, whereas the warming effect due to trapping of outgoing heat happens all of the time. How long do contrails last? This depends on the atmospheric conditions at the altitude where a plane is flying. Some contrails can form clouds that last for up to 18 hours. During that time, they spread out, trapping even more heat. This process allows contrails to warm the planet about as much as the carbon dioxide emissions from aircraft. But when Stettler and his team analyzed flight data they obtained of Japan airspace, they found that most contrail warming was caused by just 2 percent of flights. And most of those flights originated in the late afternoon because as the sun goes down, cooling can no longer offset (抵消) the warming. And the warming effect continues to exist throughout the evening into the night. But what if the contrails that contribute the most to warming could be got rid of? 4. What does “it” in paragraph 2 refer to? A. A cooling effect. B. Heat from the ground. C. Light from the sun. D. Exhaust hitting the cold air. 5. What can be learned about contrails? A. They can easily disappear in the air. B. They actually contribute to global warming. C. Their cooling effect happens all of the time. D. Their warming effect is usually overlooked. 6. What is most likely to be talked about next? A. A future plan for Japan airspace. B. The negative influence of contrails. C. Other potential causes of contrails. D. A possible way to remove contrails. C GPS has completely transformed how we get around. But other animals have long had their navigation (领航) systems built right in. “We know their eyes are quite sensitive to polarized (偏振的) light and the sky has a particular pattern of polarized light relative to the position of the sun,” Barbara Webb, a researcher at the University of Edinburgh, says. You can see polarized light firsthand if you take a pair of polarized sunglasses and spin them against the sky-the light passing through the glasses changes. Webb says the insects have polarization like that built into their many eyes. “You can think of it as having lots of sunglasses pointing in different directions.” But Webb was curious whether there’s really enough information in the sky to give insects an accurate sense of direction. So her team built a sensor (传感器) modeled after a desert ant eye and put it under artificial light meant to simulate the sky. They then put that sensor into a model meant to model the brains of desert ants and other insects. And they found that with the insects’ sensing and processing equipment, they can likely sense direction down to just a couple degrees of error. A system based on that of insects could someday be a cheap, low-energy choice to GPS. Insects have very tiny brains. A brain the size of a pinhead that’s using hardly any energy. And yet they’re still able to navigate better than we can with GPS, which is surprising. Webb is now working on building a robot that can use light to get its directions. 7. What can we learn from the text? A. GPS is not accurate enough. B. Insects have better eyes than humans. C. Light changes passing through polarized sunglasses. D. Insects have tiny brains that use no energy. 8. What does the underlined word “simulate” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Pretend. B. Cover. C. Block. D. See. 9. What did Webb’s research find? A. Insects can’t find their ways during nights. B. Insects can find directions with little mistakes. C. Insects always make mistakes finding directions. D. Insects have sensing and processing equipment in their eyes. 10. Which of the following can best describe insects’ navigation ability? A. Disappointing. B. Interesting. C. Amazing. D. Confusing. D Machine learning sees reasoning as a categorization task with a fixed set of predetermined labels. It views the world as a fixed space of possibilities, calculating and weighing them all. This approach, of course, has achieved notable successes when applied to stable and well-defined situations such as chess or computer games. When such conditions are absent, however, machines struggle. In 2008, Google launched Flu Trends, a web service that aimed to predict flu-related doctor visits using big data. The project, however, failed to predict the 2009 HINI flu outbreak. After several unsuccessful adjustments to its algorithm (算法), Google finally stopped the project in2015. In such unstable situations, the human brain behaves differently. Sometimes, it simply forgets. Instead of getting trapped in irrelevant data, it relies only on the most recent information and makes creative decisions. This is a feature called intelligent forgetting. Adopting this approach, an algorithm that relies on a single data point would have reduced Google Flu Trends' prediction error by half. Intelligent forgetting is just one dimension of psychological AI, an approach to machine intelligence that also includes other features of human intelligence such as causal reasoning, intuitive (直觉) psychology, and physics. Soon, this approach to Al will finally be recognized as fundamental for solving poorly-defined problems. Exploring these amazing features of the human brain will finally allow us to make machine learning smart. One feature of psychological Al is that it is explainable. Until recently, researchers assumed that the more transparent an AI system was, the less accurate its predictions were. This mirrored the widespread but incorrect belief that complex problems always need complex solutions. Now, this idea will be laid to rest. As the case of flu predictions illustrates, powerful and simple psychological algorithms can often give more accurate predictions than complex algorithms. Psychological AI opens up a new vision for explainable AI: Instead of trying to explain complex systems, we can check first if psychological Al offers a simple and equally accurate solution. Without the help of human psychology, it will become clearer that the application of this type of machine learning to unstable situations eventually runs up against impassable limitations. We will finally recognize that more computing power makes machines faster. Not smarter. 11. Why is Flu Trends mentioned? A. To clarify a concept. B. To tell the serious outbreak. C. To support the author's idea. D. To provide readers with the truth. 12. What is the advantage of human brain according to the passage? A. It can think outside the box. B. It can avoid unclear problems. C. It is capable of learning over time. D. It is good at following instructions. 13. Which has the similar meaning with the underlined word “transparent” in paragraph 5? A. Similar. B. Unique. C. Complete. D. Clear. 14. What does the author intend to tell us? A. AI speeds up the computing greatly. B. Psychological Al can make smarter AI. C. AI system works well in stable situations. D. AI will outperform the human brain someday. 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。 Develop Positive Relationships One of the most profound experiences we can have in our lives is the connection we have with other human beings. Positive and supportive relationships will help us to feel healthier, happier, and more satisfied with our lives. ____15____ ●Accept and celebrate differences. ____16____ Yet when we try to build relationships, we expect that people will think like we do. In this way, it is so much easier to create a friendly relationship. However, while we may find it initially easier, the novelty of sameness soon would wear off. So accepting that we are all different is a great starting point. ●Listen effectively. Listening is a crucial skill in boosting another person’s self-esteem.____17____In active listening, we also are genuinely interested in understanding what the other person is thinking, feeling, wanting, or what the message means, and we are active in checking out our understanding before we respond with our own new message. This process is what distinguishes active listening and makes it effective. ●____18____ In a world where time is of the essence, we don’t always have the time to give to our loved ones. Being present in the time you give to people is important. In other words, when you are with someone, you are truly with someone and not living in the past or worrying about the future. Devoting time, energy, and effort to building relationships is one of the most valuable life skills. ●Manage mobile technology. By now, everyone has a mobile phone and many people have two or more. While they are a lifesaver in an emergency, and an effective tool for communication, they also can be a complete distraction when people exhibit a lack of mobile phone etiquette (礼仪).____19____ A. Give people your time. B. Develop your communication skills. C. We can perceive the world variously. D. Active listening is the most useful listening skill. E. So here are some tips to help you develop more positive relationships. F. Pay attention to who you are with and answer the phone when necessary. G. So technology has somewhat weakened our ability to build a good relationship. 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。 I have loved and cared for all kinds of creatures for as long as I can remember.

She had just started building up hours of flight time when disaster struck. As she guided the Diamond Star plane off the runway at Oakland County International airport, on her third-ever independent flight, the front tyre (轮胎) of her plane fell off. Taylor was unaware at that point that she had just lost crucial landing equipment. “I didn’t feel anything on the takeoff roll (起飞滑跑).” she said. Experienced pilot Chris Yates, though, saw something on the takeoff roll and immediately took action. He knew that Taylor would have to make a difficult emergency landing. He radioed the control tower and said, “The Diamond Star that just took off lost its nose (头部) wheel tyre on the runway.” But the control tower operators didn’t know what to do. They’d never seen such a thing happen before. Yates asked them to put him through to Taylor so he could help her. When Taylor learned what had happened, she was in panic. With only 57 total fight hours under her belt, she didn’t know what her options were and could only imagine how this was going to end. “I didn’t know what to do in that moment,” said Taylor later. “I’m just panicking and figuring out how I’m going to land this plane safely.” But Yates knew what to do. He knew that the most important thing would be to keep Taylor calm so that she could follow his instructions effectively. Yates started by reassuring (使安心) Taylor that everything was going to turn out just fine: “Taylor, this is Chris Yates. My daughter’s name is Taylor, and I taught her to fly! We’re gonna be just fine. Just take your time.” He told her that she could circle the field until she was ready to land. “When you touch down, I just want that stick (操纵杆) all the way back. You’re gonna hold that stick back like you don’t want that nose to touch,” he coached her. 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。 Despite feeling scared and unsure, Taylor trusted Yates and followed his instructions. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Taylor went up to Yates after she stepped out of the plane safely. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 衡阳市第一中学2026年高三一模检测英语试题 （总分：150分 考试时间：120分钟） 注意事项： 1.答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号、考场号、座位号填写在答题卡上。 2.回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 3.考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第二部分 阅读(共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A While writing plain English is no challenge, most of us struggle to find words or phrases to perfectly fall in place with the content.

Thesaurus helps users by providing alternative words and phrases to perfectly express themselves. It also offers the best collection of synonyms and antonyms.(建立在词汇基础上是至关重要的，而这正是Thesaurus所提供的。Thesaurus通过提供可供选择的单词和短语来帮助用户完美地表达自己。它还提供了最好的同义词和反义词集合)”可知，Thesaurus提供大量的词汇词条来帮助提高词汇量。故选B。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Hemingway App”下面的“The Hemingway app also provides a readability score for the entered text, which you could use to analyze the structure of the content you’ve written and build a connection with your readers.(Hemingway应用程序还为输入的文本提供可读性评分，你可以使用该评分来分析你所写内容的结构，并与读者建立联系)”可知，Hemingway应用程序可以帮助评估所写内容与读者建立联系的有效性。故选C。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“To help you improve your writing skills in English, we have collected some of the best web resources dedicated to this mission.(为了帮助你提高英语写作技能，我们收集了一些专门用于此任务的最佳网络资源。)”和文中的“It is basically an online word processor, which goes beyond others in correcting over 250 types of English mistakes. The spell-checker and vocabulary enhancer are the standout features of Grammarly.(它基本上是一个在线文字处理器，在纠正250多种英语错误方面超越了其他词典。拼写检查器和词汇增强器是Grammarly的突出特点)”、“Using Hemingway App, all of your wordy sentences are highlighted in yellow and irrelevant content in red.(使用Hemingway应用程序，你所有的冗长句子都用黄色突出显示，无关内容用红色突出显示)”等可知，本篇文章主要介绍了一些帮助提高英语写作技能的网络资源，这些资源可以帮助检查拼写、提高词汇量、检查句子内容等，由此可推测出，本文的目标读者可能是想提高写作能力的非英语母语的人、对探索不同的网络工具感兴趣的语言爱好者、需要做审阅和润色稿件工作的杂志编辑。故选A。 B If you look up in the sky, you probably see, at some point, an aircraft. And behind that aircraft are white, fluffy streaks (条纹). And that's what we call a contrail. Contrails are made up of ice crystals that form when aircraft engines emit exhaust (废气) that hits the cold air. The ice crystals reflect incoming light from the sun back into space, which has a cooling effect on the atmosphere. But the contrails also stop heat coming up from the ground from escaping into space. It is reflected back down toward the ground. And so that's a warming effect. Stettler, an engineer from Imperial College London, says, on balance, contrails warm the atmosphere more than they cool it.

They can easily disappear in the air. B. They actually contribute to global warming. C. Their cooling effect happens all of the time. D. Their warming effect is usually overlooked. 6. What is most likely to be talked about next? A. A future plan for Japan airspace. B. The negative influence of contrails. C. Other potential causes of contrails. D. A possible way to remove contrails. 【答案】4. B 5. B 6. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了飞机引擎排放的废气与冷空气相遇时形成的冰晶构成的飞机尾迹以及它的温室效应。 【4题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“But the contrails also stop heat coming up from the ground from escaping into space. It is reflected back down toward the ground. (但是飞机尾迹也阻止来自地面的热量逃往太空,它被反射回了地面)”可知，代词it 指的是来自地面的热量。故选B。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Stettler, an engineer from Imperial College London, says, on balance, contrails warm the atmosphere more than they cool it. (伦敦帝国理工学院的工程师Stettler说，总的来说，飞机尾迹使大气变暖多于变冷)”和第三段“This process allows contrails to warm the planet about as much as the carbon dioxide emissions from aircraft.(这个过程使得飞机尾迹使地球变暖的程度相当于飞机排放的二氧化碳)”可知，飞机尾迹会导致气候变暖。故选B。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段最后一句话“But what if the contrails that contribute the most to warming could be got rid of?(但是如果对气候变暖贡献最大的飞机尾迹可以被消除会怎样？)”可推断，下一段会承接上文，继续讲消除飞机尾迹的方法。D选项“消除尾迹的一种可能方法。”与之相符，故选D。 C GPS has completely transformed how we get around.

C 【解析】 【分析】本文是说明文。文章告诉我们，研究发现昆虫拥有与生俱来的导航能力。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第三段“You can see polarized light firsthand if you take a pair of polarized sunglasses and spin them against the sky-the light passing through the glasses changes.”可知当把一副偏振光太阳镜放在太阳底下旋转的时候，你就能亲眼看到偏振光了。光穿过偏振玻璃的时候会发生改变。选项C意为“光线在穿过偏振玻璃的时候会发生改变。”符合文意。故选C项。 【8题详解】 词义猜测题。文章第四段“So her team built a sensor (传感器) modeled after a desert ant eye and put it under artificial light meant to simulate the sky. ”可知，她的团队模拟沙漠蚂蚁的眼睛制作了传感器，然后把它放到人造光下。人造光是来模拟天空的。本段Webb在模拟天空和沙漠蚂蚁的大脑来研究天空是如何给予昆虫方向感的。本段一直出现的词是model即模拟。可推断这里把人造光源当做天空。A项意为“假装”，符合文意。故选A项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第四段“And they found that with the insects’ sensing and processing equipment, they can likely sense direction down to just a couple degrees of error.”可知他们发现昆虫通过自己的感知和处理设备，可以很好的识别方向且误差还比较小。B项意为“昆虫可以找到方向且很少有误差。”符合文意。故选B项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。由文章最后一段“And yet they’re still able to navigate better than we can with GPS, which is surprising.”可知昆虫的导航能力比我们用GPS的导航能力还要好，这一点让人很惊奇。文章对动物的导航能力是感到惊叹的。C项符合文意。故选C项。 D Machine learning sees reasoning as a categorization task with a fixed set of predetermined labels. It views the world as a fixed space of possibilities, calculating and weighing them all. This approach, of course, has achieved notable successes when applied to stable and well-defined situations such as chess or computer games. When such conditions are absent, however, machines struggle. In 2008, Google launched Flu Trends, a web service that aimed to predict flu-related doctor visits using big data. The project, however, failed to predict the 2009 HINI flu outbreak. After several unsuccessful adjustments to its algorithm (算法), Google finally stopped the project in2015. In such unstable situations, the human brain behaves differently. Sometimes, it simply forgets. Instead of getting trapped in irrelevant data, it relies only on the most recent information and makes creative decisions. This is a feature called intelligent forgetting. Adopting this approach, an algorithm that relies on a single data point would have reduced Google Flu Trends' prediction error by half. Intelligent forgetting is just one dimension of psychological AI, an approach to machine intelligence that also includes other features of human intelligence such as causal reasoning, intuitive (直觉) psychology, and physics. Soon, this approach to Al will finally be recognized as fundamental for solving poorly-defined problems. Exploring these amazing features of the human brain will finally allow us to make machine learning smart. One feature of psychological Al is that it is explainable. Until recently, researchers assumed that the more transparent an AI system was, the less accurate its predictions were. This mirrored the widespread but incorrect belief that complex problems always need complex solutions. Now, this idea will be laid to rest. As the case of flu predictions illustrates, powerful and simple psychological algorithms can often give more accurate predictions than complex algorithms. Psychological AI opens up a new vision for explainable AI: Instead of trying to explain complex systems, we can check first if psychological Al offers a simple and equally accurate solution. Without the help of human psychology, it will become clearer that the application of this type of machine learning to unstable situations eventually runs up against impassable limitations. We will finally recognize that more computing power makes machines faster. Not smarter. 11. Why is Flu Trends mentioned? A. To clarify a concept. B. To tell the serious outbreak. C. To support the author's idea. D. To provide readers with the truth. 12. What is the advantage of human brain according to the passage? A. It can think outside the box. B. It can avoid unclear problems. C. It is capable of learning over time. D. It is good at following instructions. 13. Which has the similar meaning with the underlined word “transparent” in paragraph 5? A. Similar. B. Unique. C. Complete. D. Clear. 14. What does the author intend to tell us? A. AI speeds up the computing greatly. B. Psychological Al can make smarter AI. C. AI system works well in stable situations. D. AI will outperform the human brain someday. 【答案】11. C 12. A 13. D 14. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了心理人工智能可以让人工智能变得更聪明。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“This approach, of course, has achieved notable successes when applied to stable and well-defined situations such as chess or computer games. When such conditions are absent, however, machines struggle.”（当然，这种方法在应用于国际象棋或电脑游戏等稳定且定义明确的情况时取得了显著的成功。然而，当没有这样的条件时，机器就会显得很吃力。）根据第二段“In 2008, Google launched Flu Trends, a web service that aimed to predict flu-related doctor visits using big data. The project, however, failed to predict the 2009 HINI flu outbreak. After several unsuccessful adjustments to its algorithm (算法), Google finally stopped the project in2015.”（2008年，谷歌推出了流感趋势，这是一项旨在利用大数据预测流感相关医生就诊情况的网络服务。然而，该项目未能预测2009年中国流感的爆发。在对算法进行了几次失败的调整后，谷歌终于在2015年停止了该项目）可知，提到流感趋势是为了支持作者的观点。故选C项。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“In such unstable situations, the human brain behaves differently. Sometimes, it simply forgets. Instead of getting trapped in irrelevant data, it relies only on the most recent information and makes creative decisions.”（在这种不稳定的情况下，人类的大脑会有不同的表现。有时候，它只是忘记了。它不会被无关的数据所困，而是只依赖于最新的信息，并做出创造性的决定。）可知，人脑的优势是它可以跳出框框思维。故选A项。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第五段“This mirrored the widespread but incorrect belief that complex problems always need complex solutions.”（这反映了一种普遍但不正确的观点，即复杂的问题总是需要复杂的解决方案）可知，直到最近，研究人员还认为人工智能系统越清晰，其预测就越不准确。故划线词的意思是“清晰的”。故选D。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文以及根据第四段“Exploring these amazing features of the human brain will finally allow us to make machine learning smart.”（探索人类大脑的这些惊人特征将最终使我们能够使机器学习变得智能。）根据最后一段“Without the help of human psychology, it will become clearer that the application of this type of machine learning to unstable situations eventually runs up against impassable limitations.”（如果没有人类心理学的帮助，将越来越清楚的是，将这种类型的机器学习应用于不稳定的情况最终会遇到不可逾越的限制）可知，作者想告诉我们心理人工智能可以让人工智能变得更聪明。故选B。 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。 Develop Positive Relationships One of the most profound experiences we can have in our lives is the connection we have with other human beings. Positive and supportive relationships will help us to feel healthier, happier, and more satisfied with our lives. ____15____ ●Accept and celebrate differences. ____16____ Yet when we try to build relationships, we expect that people will think like we do. In this way, it is so much easier to create a friendly relationship. However, while we may find it initially easier, the novelty of sameness soon would wear off. So accepting that we are all different is a great starting point. ●Listen effectively. Listening is a crucial skill in boosting another person’s self-esteem.____17____In active listening, we also are genuinely interested in understanding what the other person is thinking, feeling, wanting, or what the message means, and we are active in checking out our understanding before we respond with our own new message. This process is what distinguishes active listening and makes it effective. ●____18____ In a world where time is of the essence, we don’t always have the time to give to our loved ones. Being present in the time you give to people is important. In other words, when you are with someone, you are truly with someone and not living in the past or worrying about the future. Devoting time, energy, and effort to building relationships is one of the most valuable life skills. ●Manage mobile technology. By now, everyone has a mobile phone and many people have two or more. While they are a lifesaver in an emergency, and an effective tool for communication, they also can be a complete distraction when people exhibit a lack of mobile phone etiquette (礼仪).____19____ A. Give people your time. B. Develop your communication skills. C. We can perceive the world variously. D. Active listening is the most useful listening skill. E. So here are some tips to help you develop more positive relationships. F. Pay attention to who you are with and answer the phone when necessary. G. So technology has somewhat weakened our ability to build a good relationship. 【答案】15. E 16. C 17. D 18. A 19. F 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了发展积极的人际关系的四种方法。 【15题详解】 该句话在第一段的最后一句，应为一个承上启下的句子。根据文章标题“Develop Positive Relationships”（发展积极的人际关系）和下文4个小标题可知，本文主要介绍如何培养良好的关系， E选项“So here are some tips to help you develop more positive relationships.”（所以这里有一些建议可以帮助你发展更积极的关系。）符合题意，故选E。 【16题详解】 本段介绍的是要接受人和人之间的不同。根据下文“Yet when we try to build relationships, we expect that people will think like we do.”（然而，当我们试图建立关系时，我们期望人们会像我们一样思考。）可知，该空内容与下文形成转折，人和人之间是不同的，那么人们对世界的认知也是不同的，但我们建立关系的时候，我们却希望其他人和我们想法一样。C选项“We can perceive the world variously.”（我们可以以不同的方式感知世界。）符合题意，故选C。 【17题详解】 本段介绍倾听的好处，根据上文“Listening is a crucial skill in boosting another person’s self-esteem.”（倾听是提升他人自尊的关键技能。）可知，倾听可以增强对方的自尊，而积极倾听是最有用的技巧。下文继续围绕“active listening”展开。D选项“Active listening is the most useful listening skill.”（积极倾听是最有用的听力技巧。）”符合题意，故选D。 【18题详解】 根据下文“Devoting time, energy, and effort to building relationships is one of the most valuable life skills.”（花时间、精力和努力去建立人际关系是最有价值的生活技能之一。）可知，本段介绍我们在和他人建立良好关系时要花时间。A选项“Give people your time.”（给别人你的时间。）”符合题意，故选A。 【19题详解】 根据上文“While they are a lifesaver in an emergency, and an effective tool for communication, they also can be a complete distraction when people exhibit a lack of mobile phone etiquette.”（在紧急情况下，手机是救星，是有效的沟通工具，但当人们缺乏使用手机的礼仪时，手机也会完全分散他们的注意力。）”可知，手机也会使我们在和他人交往时分心，显得不礼貌，该空应该讲建立人际关系时，如何正确使用现代通讯工具，F选项“Pay attention to who you are with and answer the phone when necessary.”（注意和你在一起的人，必要时接听电话。）符合题意，故选F。 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。 I have loved and cared for all kinds of creatures for as long as I can remember.

Firstly, it bridges geographical gaps, allowing us to communicate instantly through video calls, messaging apps, and social media. This helps us to maintain strong connections with friends and family no matter where they are. Secondly, technology develops global connections, enabling people to share ideas, cultures, and experiences across borders, which creates opportunities for international cooperation and understanding. Lastly, technology provides platforms for people with shared interests to connect, such as online communities, forums, and gaming networks, where like-minded individuals can form meaningful relationships. In conclusion, technology is a powerful tool that strengthens relationships and unites people worldwide, making the world feel smaller and more interconnected. AI Version 2: While technology connects us virtually, it often creates emotional distance. Firstly, overuse of technological devices reduces face-to-face interactions, weakening personal bonds. For instance, people may spend more time on their phones than talking to those around them, leading to a sense of disconnection. Secondly, online communication, which lacks the depth of in- person conversations, often fails to carry messages like facial expressions and tones. This can result in misunderstandings or distant relationships, making it harder to build trust. Moreover, over-relying on technology, designed to simplify our lives, can cause separation, because people prefer screens to real-life connections. In conclusion, technology, if misused, can drive people apart by replacing meaningful interactions with impersonal digital exchanges. 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达属于议论文，要求考生以“Technology makes people closer or more distant”为题，写一篇短文参加学校英文社将要举办的辩论赛。 【详解】1.词汇积累 首先：firstly→first and foremost 最后：lastly→finally 提供：provide→offer 总之：in conclusion→in a word 2.句式拓展 简单句变复合句 原句：Firstly, it bridges geographical gaps, allowing us to communicate instantly through video calls, messaging apps, and social media. 拓展句：Firstly, it bridges geographical gaps, which allows us to communicate instantly through video calls, messaging apps, and social media. 【点睛】[高分句型1] Secondly, technology develops global connections, enabling people to share ideas, cultures, and experiences across borders, which creates opportunities for international cooperation and understanding.

As she guided the Diamond Star plane off the runway at Oakland County International airport, on her third-ever independent flight, the front tyre (轮胎) of her plane fell off. Taylor was unaware at that point that she had just lost crucial landing equipment. “I didn’t feel anything on the takeoff roll (起飞滑跑).” she said. Experienced pilot Chris Yates, though, saw something on the takeoff roll and immediately took action. He knew that Taylor would have to make a difficult emergency landing. He radioed the control tower and said, “The Diamond Star that just took off lost its nose (头部) wheel tyre on the runway.” But the control tower operators didn’t know what to do. They’d never seen such a thing happen before. Yates asked them to put him through to Taylor so he could help her. When Taylor learned what had happened, she was in panic. With only 57 total fight hours under her belt, she didn’t know what her options were and could only imagine how this was going to end. “I didn’t know what to do in that moment,” said Taylor later. “I’m just panicking and figuring out how I’m going to land this plane safely.” But Yates knew what to do. He knew that the most important thing would be to keep Taylor calm so that she could follow his instructions effectively. Yates started by reassuring (使安心) Taylor that everything was going to turn out just fine: “Taylor, this is Chris Yates. My daughter’s name is Taylor, and I taught her to fly! We’re gonna be just fine. Just take your time.” He told her that she could circle the field until she was ready to land. “When you touch down, I just want that stick (操纵杆) all the way back. You’re gonna hold that stick back like you don’t want that nose to touch,” he coached her. 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。 Despite feeling scared and unsure, Taylor trusted Yates and followed his instructions. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Taylor went up to Yates after she stepped out of the plane safely. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Despite feeling scared and unsure, Taylor trusted Yates and followed his instructions. After circling the airport a few times, she got ready to make the emergency landing. With Yates talking to her all the way, a sense of calm washed over her. “You’re doing greatly,” he encouraged, “keep that stick all the way back.” Taylor could see the runway coming up quickly. The plane touched down, the nose hitting the ground. Taylor felt the plane shaking and bouncing until it came to a complete stop. She made it! Taylor went up to Yates after she stepped out of the plane safely. With tears of gratitude in her eyes, she hugged him tightly and thanked him for his guidance during the crisis. “Had you not seen the wheel off,” Uttered Taylor, “it’s hard to think about what could have happened.” Yates praised that she had done a great job in landing the plane safely with such limited flight experience. Through misty eyes, Taylor could see the path to her career as a pilot become clearer than ever. 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达以飞行经验有限的Taylor为线索，讲述了在她第三次的独立飞行中，飞机起飞后，有经验的Yates发现了飞机的前轮掉落了。Yates联系了塔台，在Yates的耐心指导下，Taylor成功地将飞机安全着陆。 【详解】1.段落续写： 由第一段首句内容“尽管感到害怕和不确定，但Taylor还是相信Yates，并听从他的指挥。”可知，本段可以写Yates是如何鼓励并指导Taylor将飞机安全地着陆的。 由第二段首句内容“在Taylor安全地走出飞机后，她走向Yates。”可知，本段可以写Taylor无比感谢Yates，如果Yates没有及时发现问题，那后果不堪设想。经过这一次经历后，Taylor觉得自己的飞行之路又明亮了一些。 2.续写线索： 相信Yates，并听从他的指挥→Yates先努力让Taylor冷静下来→鼓励她并指导她如何正确地操作→飞机终于安全着陆→Taylor走出机舱，感谢Yates→Taylor觉得经历了这次事件后，她的飞行之路又明亮了一些。 3.词类激活： 行为类： 涌上心头：wash over/well up in one’s heart/flare up/sweep over 准备好做某事：get ready/be prepared/make full preparations 情绪类： 感激：gratitude/thankfulness/appreciation 困难的：hard/difficult/tough/full of difficulty 【点睛】【高分句型1】 The plane touched down, the nose hitting the ground.(运用了独立主格。) 【高分句型2】 With Yates talking to her all the way, a sense of calm washed over her.(运用了with的复合结构。) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
