Recently, in Fushun, Liaoning Province, a man called Mr. Sun did something that touched the hearts of many people.

Sun used AI face-swapping (换脸) technology to make a video of his late (已故的) ____1____ for his 91-year-old grandmother. In the video, it looked like his father was ____2____. Mr. Sun hoped this video could make a ____3____ to his grandmother’s low spirits.

Making this video was ____4____ for Mr. Sun. It took him almost half a month and he cried many times because he ____5____ his father very much.

In 2022, Mr. Sun’s father got seriously ill. Though the family had made a great effort (努力) to help him with the illness, the father ____6____ in 2023. ____7____ terrible news! The family were very sad, but they didn’t tell the grandmother about her son’s death because they were worried about her health. They just ____8____ her that her son was in hospital in Beijing.

Seeing how much his grandmother missed his father, Mr. Sun wanted to do something to keep the ____9____ between his grandmother and his father. He first ____10____ what it would be like if his father could communicate with them. Then he got an idea from science fiction films. He used AI face-swapping technology to make a video to comfort (安慰) his grandmother. With the help of AI, he made his ____11____ look like his father’s. In the video, Mr. Sun said, “Mom, this is Jihai. Don’t worry—I’m getting much ____12____ here in Beijing, and I’ll come back to see you soon.” Even though the video wasn’t perfect, his grandmother ____13____ it was her son speaking and felt happy.

Mr. Sun felt a mix of feelings while making the video. He was sad and missed his father, but he was ____14____ happy to bring some comfort to his grandmother.

Now many people are trying to bring their late family “back to life” with AI. Some think it’s a sweet way to comfort the bereaved (失去亲人的人), while others worry it will make people ____15____ with wrong hope when they realize the “family member” isn’t real. What’s your opinion about it?

第一节（共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分）

阅读以下三篇短文，从每小题所给的四个选项中，选出一个与短文内容相符的最佳选项。

A

Many people use an official account (公众号) on WeChat. It is called WeRun. WeRun lets us see our daily step counts. One of its most popular features (特征) is the ranking list (排行榜). It shows users’ daily step counts and compares them with those of their WeChat friends. Now, more and more people are using WeRun. We wonder how much we can learn about a person from his or her step count. Let’s take a look.

Step Count Range	Details
Less than 50 steps	If someone takes about 30 steps a day, they may be sick or sad. Or they are just too lazy to get out of bed.
50~500 steps	It’s easy to take a few hundred steps a day. Going shopping, for example, will be enough.
501~8,000 steps	On average, most students and workers take between 501 and 8,000 steps a day. These step counts usually place them in the middle of the

	ranking list.
8,001~30,000 steps	Salespeople, guides and sportspeople often take a lot of steps a day because they are always on the move.
More than 30,000 steps	These step counts are mostly at the top of the ranking list. The people who have them are policemen, reporters, cleaners and so on. They are the people who help us to live easy and comfortable lives.

To some degree (程度), a person’s WeRun records can show his or her character and personal life.

16. What is WeRun?

A. A popular game on WeChat.

B. An app that makes people walk more.

C. A ranking list on WeChat that shows a person’s character.
