On the very first day, God created the cow and said to him, “As a cow, you must go to the field, working under the sun all day long! And I will give you 40 years to live.” The cow objected, “What? You want me to live such a tough life for 40 years? Let me have 20 years, and I’ll give the rest back to you.” So God agreed.
On the second day, God created the dog and said, “You’ll be man’s best friend, guarding his house and eating his leftovers. I’ll give you a life span of 30 years.” The dog shook his head. “Eating leftovers for 30 years? No way! I’ll give half back to you!” So God agreed.
Then, God created the monkey, saying, “Your job is to entertain people. You’ve got to do monkey tricks and make them laugh. And you’ll live 20 years.”“Do monkey tricks to make them laugh? 10 years will do.” the monkey said. So God agreed.

And I’ll give you 20 years to live.” Thinking for a while, the man replied, “I can be the man, but I want to take all the years that the cow, the dog and the monkey didn’t want.” So God agreed.
Since then, man eats, sleeps and plays in the first 2 decades, marries and spends the next 2 decades like a cow, working very hard to support his family. Then when he has children, he lives 15 years like a dog, taking care of the house and eating whatever is given to him.

Many children are introduced to animals through TV shows or movies. Shaun the Sheep, a popular cartoon series, features a variety of animals living at the Mossy Bottom Farm. Among them, naughty Shaun is the clever leader of his flock of sheep. Sheep in this series look a bit different from common ones because the TV show used the Valais Blacknose sheep the model.
There are few animals that make people say “Aww!” in a high-toned voice as quickly as the Valais Blacknose sheep. As the cutest sheep in the world, these animals come from the Valais region in Switzerland. They are instantly recognizable thanks to their charming appearance. With spiral-shaped horns (螺旋形的角), they have soft, white wool, which contrasts with the black patches spread evenly over their faces and found on their ears, knees, and ankles.
The Valais Blacknose sheep have a rich history deeply rooted in the Swiss Alps. They were originally raised in the 15th century for their highly valued wool. However, it was not until 1962 that they were officially recognized as a breed (品种). Their population once dwindled, but continuous efforts have been made to protect this unique breed. These efforts have been successful, and the Valais Blacknose sheep can now be found in various parts of the globe.
Looking like a combination of a lamb and a teddy bear, the Valais Blacknose sheep has found its place in the hearts of many people. They are also raised as pets due to their adorable, gentle, and friendly nature, which makes them perfect companions. However, it’s important for owners to consider their needs, including suitable living environment, nutrition (营养), and space to wander. Whether as wool producers or beloved pets, the Valais Blacknose sheep have gained their fame in being helpful animals.
28. How is the topic introduced?
A. By listing characters in a TV show. B. By describing the nature of an animal.
C. By comparing leaders of different animals. D. By showing a character in a cartoon series.
29. What is mainly talked about concerning the Valais Blacknose sheep in paragraph 2?
A. Its look. B. Its character.
C. Its use. D. Its origin.
30. What does the underlined word “dwindled” mean in paragraph 3?
A. Decreased gradually. B. Changed constantly.
C. Increased rapidly. D. Remained stable.
31. What should owners take into consideration when raising the Valais Balcknose sheep?
A. Sheep’s food needs. B. Sheep’s appearance.
C. Owner-sheep interaction. D. Owner-sheep relationship.

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了瓦莱黑鼻羊这种动物的一些特点和价值。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“Shaun the Sheep, a popular cartoon series, features a variety of animals living at the Mossy Bottom Farm. Among them, naughty Shaun is the clever leader of his flock of sheep. Sheep in this series look a bit different from common ones because the TV show used the Valais Blacknose sheep the model.(Shaun the Sheep是一部很受欢迎的卡通片,讲述了生活在苔藓底农场的各种动物。其中,顽皮的Shaun是他羊群中聪明的领导者。这个系列中的羊看起来有点不同于普通的羊,因为电视节目使用了瓦莱黑鼻羊的模型)”可知,第一段提到动画片Shaun the Shee中的瓦莱黑鼻羊,下文介绍了这种动物的一些特点和价值,故第一段是通过展示卡通系列中的一个角色来引入话题的,故选D。
【29题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段中“They are instantly recognizable thanks to their charming appearance. With spiral-shaped horns (螺旋形的角), they have soft, white wool, which contrasts with the black patches spread evenly over their faces and found on their ears, knees, and ankles.(它们有螺旋状的角,柔软的白色羊毛,与均匀分布在脸上、耳朵、膝盖和脚踝上的黑色斑块形成鲜明对比)”可知,第二段主要谈论了瓦莱黑鼻羊的外貌,故选A。
【30题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词下文“but continuous efforts have been made to protect this unique breed. These efforts have been successful, and the Valais Blacknose sheep can now be found in various parts of the globe.(但人们一直在努力保护这个独特的品种。这些努力取得了成功,瓦莱黑鼻羊现在可以在全球各地找到)”可知,由于保护瓦莱黑鼻羊的一些努力,现在它们在可以在全球各地找到,推知划线词所在句意为“它们的数量一度减少”,dwindled意为“减少”,故选A。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。最后一段中“However, it’s important for owners to consider their needs, including suitable living environment, nutrition (营养), and space to wander.(然而,对于主人来说,考虑他们的需求是很重要的,包括合适的生活环境、营养和漫步的空间)”提到主人应该考虑到羊的营养,即主人应该考虑羊的食物需求。故选A。

A red bus took visitors along the streets of New York City’s Roosevelt Island. But this wasn’t a typical sightseeing tour. Passengers all wore virtual reality headsets (虚拟现实头戴设备) for an eye-opening experience. This experience was designed to engage (使参与) visitors in creative ways through a new system called CXR. Passengers were transported into a place where virtual and real environments met. There they experienced nine shocking scenes showing the impact of climate change, especially rising floodwaters.
Scientific models suggest that a 100-year flood could cover most of Roosevelt Island. Despite the warning, research shows that such a disaster doesn’t feel real to many in the public. This gap is exactly what the CXR system aims to deal with.
The technology helps people understand serious challenges like climate change. The participants can experience a shared reality while traveling through their environment. And the CXR system proved to do more than just educate people about disaster risks.
After seeing the most serious flooding events, participants reported strong emotional responses. Many expressed increased concern about climate change and a desire to do something. One participant was even moved to tears upon seeing a flood reach the steps of her school. “These types of reactions were not surprising,” said Wendy Ju, whose research group created CXR. “We did find that people got worried, but we also noted that the worry seemed to inspire people to take measures. It’s a good result from our viewpoint.”
The CXR system has many possible applications beyond its primary plan. It can play an important role in city planning by engaging communities in discussions about new developments. By providing a clear and realistic presentation of suggested changes, it helps to reduce misunderstandings. This encourages people to actively express their opinions about approaches to future planning. “Immersive (沉浸式的) technologies can bring future challenges into focus,” Ju said. “They are important for building the social will to prepare for what lies ahead.”
32. What is the primary function of the CXR system?
A. To encourage public transportation use.
B. To raise awareness of climate issues.
C. To teach flood prevention measures.
D. To increase the enjoyment of tours.
33. What do the participants’ reactions reflect?
A. Their wish for scientific progress.
B. Their interest in public discussions.
C. Their growing sense of climate action.
D. Their confusion about climate education.
34. Which can best describe the experience with the CXR system?
A. Educational and inspiring. B. Adventurous and joyful.
C. Confusing and stressful. D. Realistic and relaxing.
35. How can the CXR system generally benefit city planning?
A. By driving cooperative problem-solving.
B. By stressing the need for green spaces.
C. By focusing on short-term solutions.
D. By reducing overall planning costs.
【答案】32. B 33. C 34. A 35. A
【解析】
【导语】文章主要介绍了CXR虚拟现实系统,它通过让乘客在巴士上体验洪水场景,有效提高了公众对气候变化的认识并激发行动意愿。

(尽管有这样的警告,但研究表明,对公众来说,这样的灾难并不真实。这种差距正是CXR系统要解决的问题。)”和第三段中的“The technology helps people understand serious challenges like climate change. (该技术帮助人们理解像气候变化这样的严峻挑战。)”可知,CXR系统是为了解决公众对洪水灾难缺乏真实感的问题,其主要功能是提高人们对气候问题的意识。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中的“After seeing the most serious flooding events, participants reported strong emotional responses. Many expressed increased concern about climate change and a desire to do something. (在目睹了最严重的洪灾事件后,参与者报告了强烈的情感反应。许多人表示对气候变化更加担忧,并希望采取行动。)”可知,参与者的情感反应最终转化为采取行动的意愿,这反映了他们日益增长的气候行动意识。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“And the CXR system proved to do more than just educate people about disaster risks. (而CXR系统所起的作用远不止于向人们普及灾害风险。)”和第四段中的“After seeing the most serious flooding events, participants reported strong emotional responses. Many expressed increased concern about climate change and a desire to do something. (在目睹了最严重的洪灾事件后,参与者报告了强烈的情感反应。许多人表示对气候变化更加担忧,并希望采取行动。)”可知,这一体验既传授了灾害相关知识,富有教育性,又激发了人们的情感和行动意愿,具有启发性。
【35题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“It can play an important role in city planning by engaging communities in discussions about new developments. By providing a clear and realistic presentation of suggested changes, it helps to reduce misunderstandings. This encourages people to actively express their opinions about approaches to future planning. (它可以通过让社区参与新开发项目的讨论,在城市规划中发挥重要作用。通过清晰真实地展示拟议的改变,它有助于减少误解。这鼓励人们积极对未来规划方案表达自己的观点。)”可知,CXR系统可以推动公众共同参与、合作解决城市规划问题。

【37题详解】
上文提到“Check the source.(检查信息来源。)”这表明接下来应该具体说明如何检查信息来源是否可靠,选项F“看看故事来自哪个网站。”即告诉我们怎样检查。故选F。
【38题详解】
下文提到“Many fake news stories use images that are Photo-shopped or taken from an unrelated site.(很多假新闻故事使用的图片是从照片商店或无关网站拍摄的。)”,本空填入选项A“注意假照片。”,不仅意思上对应的上,选项A中的“photos”直接对应下句话中的“images”。故选A。
【39题详解】
上文提到“Sometimes, if you just look closely at an image, you can see if it has been changed.(有时,如果你仔细观察一张图片,你可以看出它是否被修改过。)”,这是辨别照片的一种方式,选项G“你也可以使用像Google反向图片搜索这样的工具。”提出了另外一种辨别照片真伪的方式,并且G中的“also”可以看出与前句的并列关系。故选G。
【40题详解】
上文提到“Look to see if the story is on other news sites that you know and trust.(看看这个故事是否出现在你所知道并信任的其他新闻网站上。)”,选项B“如果你确实在很多其他网站找到了它,”不仅和上文承接,也和下文“then it probably isn’t fake (although there are some exceptions(那么它可能不是假的(尽管也有一些例外))”衔接紧密,所以选项B完全做到了承上启下。故选B。

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了京剧的起源、发展历史以及它如何成为一种综合的艺术形式,并强调了它在传承中国传统文化中的重要作用。
【66题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:京剧,被视为中国的国宝,已有200多年的历史。本句已有谓语动词has,空处应用非谓语形式,逻辑主语是Peking Opera与consider之间为被动关系,应该用过去分词形式作后置定语。故填considered。
【67题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:1790年,为了庆祝他的80岁生日,他邀请了来自全国各地的剧团到北京演出。本句已有谓语动词invited,空处应用非谓语形式,表达“为了庆祝”,应该用不定式作目的状语,且位于句首,单词首字母大写。故填To celebrate。
【68题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意:庆祝活动结束后,来自安徽省的四个著名剧团被要求留下来,因为他们的表演,以优美的旋律、多彩的服装和迷人的面部化妆为特色,赢得了观众的好评。空处作谓语动词,根据前文“in 1790”可知,空处应该用一般过去时,主语 four famous troupes和谓语动词ask是被动关系,所以用一般过去时的被动语态,主语是four famous troupes,be动词用were。故填were asked。
【69题详解】
考查时态。句意:庆祝活动结束后,来自安徽省的四个著名剧团被要求留下来,因为他们的表演,以优美的旋律、多彩的服装和迷人的面部化妆为特色,赢得了观众的好评。空处作谓语动词,根据前文“in 1790”可知,此处应该用一般过去时。故填won。

【72题详解】
考查连词。句意:随着时间的推移,京剧已经发展成为一种集唱、跳、演、偏艺术于一体的综合艺术形式。空处表达“随着时间的推移”,应该用固定搭配as time goes by,as引导时间状语从句,位于句首,首字母应大写。故填As。
【73题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:随着时间的推移,京剧已经发展成为一种集唱、跳、演、偏艺术于一体的综合艺术形式。空处引导定语从句,先行词是a comprehensive art form,关系词在从句中作主语,应该用关系代词that或which。故填which/that。
【74题详解】
考查名词。句意:它运用各种技巧讲述故事,表达情感,呈现历史文化主题,在弘扬中国传统文化方面发挥着重要作用。根据前文的various可知,空处应该用名词的复数形式,作宾语。故填techniques。
【75题详解】
考查冠词。句意:它运用各种技巧讲述故事,表达情感,呈现历史文化主题,在弘扬中国传统文化方面发挥着重要作用。空处表达“发挥着重要作用”,应该用固定搭配play an important role in,空后的important是元音音素开头,所以用不定冠词an。故填an。

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Dear fellow students,
Recently, an increasing number of students are relying too much on AI tools to complete their assignments, which has led to some negative consequences, such as a decline in academic integrity and critical thinking.
To address the issues, we should use AI as a supplementary tool to enhance learning rather than a replacement for our own efforts. Additionally, it is of great significance for us to critically evaluate the information generated by AI rather than accept it blindly. Otherwise, we might be deprived of the ability to think critically.
Let’s make a conscious effort to use artificial intelligence in a reasonable and responsible manner.
The Student Union

On the very first day, God created the cow and said to him, “As a cow, you must go to the field, working under the sun all day long! And I will give you 40 years to live.” The cow objected, “What? You want me to live such a tough life for 40 years? Let me have 20 years, and I’ll give the rest back to you.” So God agreed.
On the second day, God created the dog and said, “You’ll be man’s best friend, guarding his house and eating his leftovers. I’ll give you a life span of 30 years.” The dog shook his head. “Eating leftovers for 30 years? No way! I’ll give half back to you!” So God agreed.
Then, God created the monkey, saying, “Your job is to entertain people. You’ve got to do monkey tricks and make them laugh. And you’ll live 20 years.”“Do monkey tricks to make them laugh? 10 years will do.” the monkey said. So God agreed.
Finally, God created the man. “You will be the man. All you need to do is to sleep, eat, and play, simply enjoying your life. And I’ll give you 20 years to live.” Thinking for a while, the man replied, “I can be the man, but I want to take all the years that the cow, the dog and the monkey didn’t want.” So God agreed.
Since then, man eats, sleeps and plays in the first 2 decades, marries and spends the next 2 decades like a cow, working very hard to support his family.

Many children are introduced to animals through TV shows or movies. Shaun the Sheep, a popular cartoon series, features a variety of animals living at the Mossy Bottom Farm. Among them, naughty Shaun is the clever leader of his flock of sheep. Sheep in this series look a bit different from common ones because the TV show used the Valais Blacknose sheep the model.
There are few animals that make people say “Aww!” in a high-toned voice as quickly as the Valais Blacknose sheep. As the cutest sheep in the world, these animals come from the Valais region in Switzerland. They are instantly recognizable thanks to their charming appearance. With spiral-shaped horns (螺旋形的角), they have soft, white wool, which contrasts with the black patches spread evenly over their faces and found on their ears, knees, and ankles.
The Valais Blacknose sheep have a rich history deeply rooted in the Swiss Alps. They were originally raised in the 15th century for their highly valued wool. However, it was not until 1962 that they were officially recognized as a breed (品种). Their population once dwindled, but continuous efforts have been made to protect this unique breed. These efforts have been successful, and the Valais Blacknose sheep can now be found in various parts of the globe.
Looking like a combination of a lamb and a teddy bear, the Valais Blacknose sheep has found its place in the hearts of many people. They are also raised as pets due to their adorable, gentle, and friendly nature, which makes them perfect companions. However, it’s important for owners to consider their needs, including suitable living environment, nutrition (营养), and space to wander. Whether as wool producers or beloved pets, the Valais Blacknose sheep have gained their fame in being helpful animals.
28. How is the topic introduced?
A. By listing characters in a TV show. B. By describing the nature of an animal.
C. By comparing leaders of different animals. D. By showing a character in a cartoon series.

A. Sheep’s food needs. B. Sheep’s appearance.

A red bus took visitors along the streets of New York City’s Roosevelt Island. But this wasn’t a typical sightseeing tour. Passengers all wore virtual reality headsets (虚拟现实头戴设备) for an eye-opening experience. This experience was designed to engage (使参与) visitors in creative ways through a new system called CXR. Passengers were transported into a place where virtual and real environments met. There they experienced nine shocking scenes showing the impact of climate change, especially rising floodwaters.
Scientific models suggest that a 100-year flood could cover most of Roosevelt Island. Despite the warning, research shows that such a disaster doesn’t feel real to many in the public. This gap is exactly what the CXR system aims to deal with.
The technology helps people understand serious challenges like climate change. The participants can experience a shared reality while traveling through their environment. And the CXR system proved to do more than just educate people about disaster risks.
After seeing the most serious flooding events, participants reported strong emotional responses. Many expressed increased concern about climate change and a desire to do something. One participant was even moved to tears upon seeing a flood reach the steps of her school. “These types of reactions were not surprising,” said Wendy Ju, whose research group created CXR. “We did find that people got worried, but we also noted that the worry seemed to inspire people to take measures. It’s a good result from our viewpoint.”
The CXR system has many possible applications beyond its primary plan. It can play an important role in city planning by engaging communities in discussions about new developments. By providing a clear and realistic presentation of suggested changes, it helps to reduce misunderstandings. This encourages people to actively express their opinions about approaches to future planning. “Immersive (沉浸式的) technologies can bring future challenges into focus,” Ju said. “They are important for building the social will to prepare for what lies ahead.”
32. What is the primary function of the CXR system?
A. To encourage public transportation use.
B. To raise awareness of climate issues.
C. To teach flood prevention measures.
D. To increase the enjoyment of tours.
33. What do the participants’ reactions reflect?
A. Their wish for scientific progress.
B. Their interest in public discussions.
C. Their growing sense of climate action.
D. Their confusion about climate education.
34. Which can best describe the experience with the CXR system?
A. Educational and inspiring. B. Adventurous and joyful.
C. Confusing and stressful. D. Realistic and relaxing.
35. How can the CXR system generally benefit city planning?
A. By driving cooperative problem-solving.
B. By stressing the need for green spaces.
C. By focusing on short-term solutions.
D. By reducing overall planning costs.
