The difference between a Gx pillow (and a normal pillow is A GREAT NIGH'T S
SLEEP.Whatever your sleep problems are,the dream of a good night's sleep has now become a
reality-thanks to a breakthrough invention:the Gx pillow.All conventional pillows flatten
significantly during sleep,becoming more uncomfortable as the night progresses,and the result of
this is disturbed and broken sleep,frustration,and the fruitless search for a better pillow.But that
search is now over.
To stop the flattening,we've come up with a solution so simple it feels like a stroke of genius.
At the heart of it lies our unique design-two separate internal ties,each crossed into an X and

placed side by side.They work in perfect harmony,gently pulling the pillow in and up,creating a
subtle lift that holds your head and neck with just the right balance of support and softness.The
result?The world's first pillow that refuses to go flat,holding its full shape from dusk till dawn.
As well as the innovative internal ties,our pillow offers a choice of medium-soft or medium-
firm to suit your preference.The high-quality 100%cotton shell is paired with a skin-friendly
Polycoz filling,while a built-in air opening helps keep you cool through the night.It truly reflects
our belief:one day all pillows will be made this way.

Two winters ago,my college roommate Paul was gradually losing the ability to do almost
everything else.He could still walk,but only with a cane ()He could eat solid foods,
though with trouble,and could drink the medication powder he mixed into water-but he began
coughing more and more as he labored to swallow anything.
Such moments would reminded Evan and me of Paul's condition.Through messages,he sent
us texts encouraging Evan and me to spare him no humor during the time we had left.So jokes,
GIFs and memes became the rule.Then he began showing us the "art"he was making.He used
his fingers,technically,but not in the way an artist holds a brush;Paul merely typed the words of
高二年级英语试卷第4页共12页

what he wanted to see into Midjourney,an AI image generator.Seconds later,Midjourney
produced four images onto his screen.To us,they looked like real paintings and that no painter
would create this way made it all the more humorous.
Pretty quickly,Evan and I started making AI pictures with our own prompts(提示词)too.
We made thousands.Any random thought that crossed our minds,Midjourney absorbed and
spat out.
Later,we started talking about putting together a 2024 calendar of our AI artwork.It was full
of strange creatures and scenes.We began that January with an image called "Tension at the
Golden Corral buffet."The calendar was a piece of physical media that the three of us could share
throughout the year.We also made a new calendar for 2025 and have plans for what could be our
memory:a coffee table book.
I could probably never argue in favor of what the technology of artificial intelligence might
ultimately bring,or its future effect on artists,writers and culture.It does scare me.But I also
know that it made my friend Paul,who has ALS,laugh.
24.What can be inferred about Paul from paragraph 1?
A.He had lost interest in eating.
B.He had difficulty communicating.
C.He was recovering from an illness.
D.He was facing severe health problems.
25.How did Paul create his"art"according to the text?
A.By using a brush with his fingers.
B.By inputting instructions into AI.
C.By summarizing thoughts on AI.
D.By copying images from AI.
26.Which two words best describe Paul?
A.Serious and innovative.
B.Humorous and independent.
C.Positive and creative.
D.Demanding and patient.
27.What does the text convey?
A.Technology offers comfort.
B.Tough time reveals friendship.
C.Art fights against diseases.
D.Humor lightens suffering.

For a century,Jordan River was a central landmark in downtown Springfield.But over the
decades,it regularly showed its bad temper by flooding into the city.By 1927,residents had been
tired of recovering from one watery attack after another.They created concrete banks to cage the
river.When the area flooded again five years later,the city buried the waterway under the streets.

For a while,that controlled the floods.But the river became a dumping ground for junk that
was filled with polluted water in seconds during storms and overflowed into other streams.
Eventually,the water won,flooding the neighborhood repeatedly,with property damages ranging
from $1 million to 15 million.
Finally,Springfield decided to adopt a new approach known as "daylighting"to bring buried
waterways back to life.Concrete and other coverings are removed and an attempt is made to restore
the natural flow and the surrounding ecosystem.Now,cities across the country are shining the
light on once-dark waterways.
The Springfield "daylighting"project has a variety of benefits.Native plantings will help
improve the water quality by filtering (polluted stormwater.The stream will replace what
has become a graffiti-covered landscape that is an unsafe sheltering spot for the city's homeless.In
other cities,"daylighting"helps redirect clean water from wastewater plants,saving the money for
treatment.In a few cities,"daylighting"has proved cheaper than maintaining concrete structures.
New York daylights Tibbetts Brook,a small stream buried in 1912.The city is under a
consent order from the state,requiring it to reduce stormwater overflows or it may face official
punishment.The project cuts sewer overflow(污水溢流)to the Harlem River by220 million tons
per year,making it one of New York City's largest green engineering projects.This really is a
triple win:overflow reduction,recreational improvements,and ecology restoration.
"Daylighting reveals another layer of these buried worlds of streams,right under our feet in
the cities,"says Gary Belan,senior director of American Rivers,"It's exciting to be able to
rediscover those assets."
28.What do we know about the attempt to cage Jordan River?
A.It's widely debated.
B.It's entirely risk-free.
C.It's temporarily effective.
D.It's generally satisfactory.
29.What can be learned about“daylighting'”?
A.It brings environmental and economic benefits.
B.It is more expensive than concrete systems.
C.It demands removing the city's homeless.
D.It focuses mainly on property values.
30.What does "a consent order"in paragraph 5 refer to?
A.A recommended cleanup strategy.
B.A formal contract for funding.
C.An optional water treatment method.
D.An official instruction with legal force.
31.Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Rivers Reborn From Underground
B.Waste Water Cleaned by Native Plants
C.Floods Controlled Through Daylighting
D.Nature Restored with Green Engineering

Conventional robots,usually constructed with rigid structure connccted by joints,were
designed to make their modelling and control easy.Biologically inspired robots can already
outperform the traditional ones in certain environments where adaptation to changing circumstances
or safety in co-working with humans is key.However,these benefits come at a price:they are
much harder to control.They are typically made of soft materials such as tissue or muscles that
undergo large shape change and exhibit time-dependent effects,especially during the task of
repeated bending.
For decades,controlling such soft robots required experts to build complicated models by
hand,a slow and expensive process.A new study published in Nature provided a new insight,
drawing inspiration from human perception.Controlling robots with a video-game controller,
people can learn to pick and place objects within minutes.The only sensors people require are
eyes.From vision alone,people can predict the robot's motion.
Researchers introduce a method called visuomotor Jacobian fields(视觉运动雅可比场),a
machine learning approach that can control robots from a single video-camera stream.They trained
their framework using 2-3 hours of multi-view videos of the robot performing randomly generated
commands captured by 12 consumer-grade video cameras.After training,the method can control
the robot to make the desired motions using only a single video camera.Relying on vision as the
only sensor,visuomotor Jacobian fields require no prior knowledge of the robot's structure,
movement patterns,materials,motors,or builtin sensors.
Their approach greatly expands the range of possible robot designs because it separates the
robot's hardware from the need to model and control it by hand.It may also lower the cost of
robotic automation by making it easier to control low-cost,mass-produced robots,even if they lack
the precise sensors that traditional control methods require.Currently,the method assumes that
the robot moves slowly and does not account for sudden or dynamic movements.However,adding
the ability to handle dynamic effects is an exciting goal for future research.
32.What makes biologically inspired robots hard to control?
A.The task.
B.The material.
C.The shape.
D.The structure.
33.Why did the author mention human perception?
A.To show how to predict motion.
B.To reveal past approaches'weakness.
C.To explain how to control robots.
D.To introduce the new method's origin.
34.What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about concerning the method?
A.Data collection.
B.Potential advantages.
C.Working principle
D.Necessary equipment.
35.What is a current limitation of the new method?
A.It fails with low-cost robots.
B.It needs precise sensors.
C.It struggles with quick moves.
D.It requires human control.

In the digital age,where information disappears with a single click and memories are stored
on screens,a time capsule carries special meaning.36 Making time capsules can be
delightful but confusing for beginners.Now,you'll have the skills needed to craft one that will
appeal to someone in the years to come.
37 This will help you pick contents,a location for the capsule,and a container.
Clear intention counts,be it for yourself to open,your children to discover,or a future stranger to
find.If you are struggling to find an audience,think about what kind you would most like to
open.38 Or the thought of opening a 150-year-old capsule left by someone long ago may
thrill you.
You may have different priorities for your contents.39 Your only limits are space
and the ability of your capsule contents to be safely stored.Store journals,letters,and
photographs for a personal touch.For a more general audience,print media showing current events
or trends is a good choice to carry into the future a sense of what it was like to be alive in your era.
No matter where you plan to store your time capsule,damage could ruin the contents before
anyone ever sees them.40 For a capsule supposed to last 5 to 10 years indoor,a
shoebox,bin,or old suitcase can be an option.If you plan to place it outdoors or bury the time
capsule,select materials that are likely to survive,like steel or PVC plastic.
A.Think about where to hide it for a surprise.
B.You may wish one filled with your parents'notes.
C.It serves as a bridge between the present and future.
D.You can collect more objects than you end up putting in.
E.The treasures inside will impress anyone who receives it.
F.Obviously,you should consider who your time capsule is for.
G.Choose a container that can withstand significant wear and tear.

A store owner hung a sign reading "Puppies For Sale"over his door,a notice that always
attracted young children.Soon a little boy appeared before the sign and asked the owner about the
price of the puppies,learning each one cost between thirty and fifty dollars.
The boy reached into his pocket and pulled out loose change totaling only $2.37,then asked
politely if he could see the puppies.Smiling,the owner whistled to call for the dogs.A mother
dog named Lady came out first,followed by five tiny fluffy pups,yet one fell far behind,walking
with a limp ()The boy immediately noticed this slow little dog and wondered what was
wrong with it.
The owner told the boy a vet had examined the puppy and discovered it lacked a hip
socket(),meaning it would limp for its whole life.Instead of feeling sorry for the dog,the
boy grew excited and made up his mind to buy this disabled puppy
Shaking his head,the store owner told the boy he should not choose this puppy and offered to
give it to him free of charge if he still wanted it.The boy looked upset,stared the owner directly
in the eye,and stated firmly that he refused to take the dog for nothing.He believed the lame

puppy was just as valuable as the other healthy ones and intended to pay its full price.He planned
to hand over his $2.37 right away and pay fifty cents each month to clear the remaining cost.
The owner tried once more to talk him out of the idea,pointing out the puppy could never
run,jump or play normally like the rest.At these words,the boy rolled up his trouser leg,
revealing a badly twisted left leg supported by a large metal brace ()He glanced up at the
owner and said gently that he himself could not run well either,and the special puppy needed an
owner who truly understood him.

Dear George,
Learning that "School Healthy Lifestyle Ambassador"is being selected,I can't wait to
recommend myself,a student who truly lives a healthy lifestyle.
So regularly do I exercise that jogging every morning has become my routine,which not only
keeps me energetic but also strengthens my immune system.If chosen,my first initiative would be
to launch a"Moming Run Club",allowing students to work out together.A single tree doesn't
make a forest,so I will invite those who care about health to share their stories,creating a positive
atmosphere on campus.
Your consideration would mean a lot to me.Thank you!
Yours sincerely,

The store owner fell silent,his eyes softening.He was instantly touched by the boy's pure
kindness and strong sense of respect.He had never expected such a young child could hold such a
sincere and noble heart.Realizing that the disabled puppy deserved equal love and dignity,the
store owner abandoned all his previous thoughts of giving the puppy away for free.He gently
stroked the puppy's soft fur,then handed it carefully to the boy,agreeing sincerely to his payment
plan and speaking highly of his empathy and courage.
The boy stepped out of the store with the puppy in his arms.The weak little puppy lay quietly
in his warm arms,trembling slightly but feeling safe and relaxed.Wearing a bright and genuine
smile,the boy held the puppy tightly.He knew perfectly well that they were destined to be the best
companions.Both suffering from physical limitations,they would never feel lonely again.Instead,
they would understand,encourage and accompany each other through every ordinary and warm
day in the future.

W:That's a shame.The ancient artifacts exhibition is the final piece for our project presentation
next week.
M:I know.If I can pull an all-nighter on Friday and get the paper done,I'll still join.I'll let you
know by tomorrow.

W:Excuse me.I'm here to return A BriefHistory of Time,8 but I'm afraid I've misplaced it.I've
turned my room upside down.(9)
M:Don't worry,it happens.Let me check...Yes,it's quite popular.There are two other holds on it.
W:I feel terrible.How much do I owe for a lost book?
M:The replacement cost is 25.But if you find it within a week and return it,there's just a late fee.
Why not give it one more look?(10

W:Tom,I've been sharing my training progress on social media-it's like a personal record of
turning daily workouts into steady improvement,from morning runs to strength and skill
practice.
M:That's inspiring.Why go public with it?
W:At first,it was just to track my growth and stay motivated when I felt stuck or discouraged.11
But now,seeing others engage keeps me going.
M:I get it.Actually,training alone can be lonely,but sharing might help clear your mind.Have
you faced any big challenges?
W:Yeah,like last month when I hit a wall with my performance,nothing seemed to work.But
posting my practice online got feedback that encouraged me to try new ways to improve.12
M:Smart move.So,what's next for you?
W:I guess I'm starting to care less about getting everything perfect,and more about what I'm
trying to achieve.13 It feels like a different way of training.

W:I saw your post about the river project,Sam.How did it go last weekend?
M:Better than expected!Over fifty people showed up.We filled dozens of bags with trash.
W:That's impressive!What was the most common item?
M:Plastic bottles,no surprise.And we also pulled out old tires and even a shopping cart.The
positive side that I hadn't expected was spotting fish and birds returning to cleaner spots almost
immediately.M④
W:That's rewarding.I heard you're also raising funds?
M:Yes.We're halfway to our goal.The money will go towards putting up educational signs along
the riverbank to teach people about keeping it clean.15
W:That's a great cause.I'll share your fundraiser page on my social media.16

students can get hands-on experience in various fields,from digital coding to traditional painting.

and ends up at 11:30.After a one-hour lunch break for everyone to recharge,the afternoon session
will continue until the whole event concludes at 4:00 PM.18 The student experts,widely known

week before the event's Friday date.20 We look forward to seeing you there!
