About a year ago, my mother turned on the dishwasher and went to the airport to see my father off. When she came back, water spread all over the kitchen floor. A worker told us the machine broke down. Mom bought a new dishwasher, but it would arrive more than a month later. I chose to wash dishes by hand to help my mother out. I thought it was a good way to show my love for my family, so I felt warm inside.
Soon I lost the warm feeling. I felt bored when seeing lots of dirty dishes. As time went by, things changed. This quiet time helped me relax and forget my troubles.
I spent fifteen minutes washing dishes every day. I put all my heart into this simple work. We finally got the new dishwasher. However, I still washed dishes by hand. Mom asked if I loved doing this housework. I told her it was the most relaxing time for me every day.
Gradually, I developed my own habit. I always started with the dishes. I learned to turn them over to clean the bottoms carefully where dried food often stuck. Next came the bowls, followed by the cooking tools: the pot my mother uses for soup. My last job was to clean chopsticks and spoons.
Washing dishes at the kitchen window each day also allowed me to notice the beauty of nature. Through the seasons, I watched a pumpkin vine (南瓜藤) take over the yard — growing well in spring, getting strong in summer, turning yellow in autumn, and going bare (光秃秃的) in winter. These discoveries (发现) helped me connect with a world I had been too busy to see.
This daily chore made me realize that completing a task can be a joy in itself. Now I can fully enjoy the joy of washing dishes, finding peace in the ordinary moments of life.

These days, AI actors are appearing in more and more Chinese short dramas. They are virtual (虚拟的) people created by AI technology. Some Chinese companies have even signed contracts (签约) with AI actors and started filming short dramas with them.
Compared with human actors, AI actors have some advantages. First, they are much cheaper. Creating an AI actor costs only about one-tenth of a human actor’s acting fees (费用). Second, they work faster. A small team can finish a 60-episode (集) AI short drama in just a few days. Third, AI actors never get tired. They can “work” 24 hours a day without breaks.
However, AI actors also bring problems. Some AI actors look too similar to real stars. This may cause portrait right infringement (肖像权侵权). Besides, many people say AI actors don’t have real feelings. Their performances are not as touching as those of human actors.
In fact, AI actors are mainly used in short videos now. They are not going to replace human actors completely. Human warmth can never be created by high technology alone. As one producer said, “AI is a tool, not a replacement. Good stories still need real human emotions.”

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,作者讲述了因洗碗机故障而开始手洗碗碟的经历,从最初的温暖到厌倦,再到从洗碗中找到宁静和快乐,最终领悟到完成一项平凡任务本身就是一种享受。
【6题详解】
由第一段“I chose to wash dishes by hand to help my mother out”可知,作者决定手洗碗碟是为了帮助妈妈。
【7题详解】
情感变化:第一段“I felt warm inside”→ 第二段“Soon I lost the warm feeling. I felt bored”→ 第二段“This quiet time helped me relax”,因此顺序为“温暖→厌倦→放松”。
【8题详解】
由第四段“I always started with the dishes... Next came the bowls, followed by the cooking tools... My last job was to clean chopsticks and spoons”可知,顺序为:盘子(dishes)→ 碗(bowls)→ 厨具(cooking tools)→ 筷子勺子(chopsticks and spoons)。

C
These days, AI actors are appearing in more and more Chinese short dramas. They are virtual (虚拟的) people created by AI technology. Some Chinese companies have even signed contracts (签约) with AI actors and started filming short dramas with them.
Compared with human actors, AI actors have some advantages. First, they are much cheaper. Creating an AI actor costs only about one-tenth of a human actor’s acting fees (费用). Second, they work faster. A small team can finish a 60-episode (集) AI short drama in just a few days. Third, AI actors never get tired. They can “work” 24 hours a day without breaks.
However, AI actors also bring problems. Some AI actors look too similar to real stars. This may cause portrait right infringement (肖像权侵权). Besides, many people say AI actors don’t have real feelings. Their performances are not as touching as those of human actors.
In fact, AI actors are mainly used in short videos now. They are not going to replace human actors completely. Human warmth can never be created by high technology alone. As one producer said, “AI is a tool, not a replacement. Good stories still need real human emotions.”

【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了如今AI演员大量出现在国产短剧里,作者既介绍了AI演员的多个优势,也客观指出了AI演员存在的问题。
【11题详解】
根据第二段内容“they are much cheaper”“they work faster.”及“AI actors never get tired”可知,AI演员的优势包括成本低、工作速度快和不知疲倦,而第三段中提到“many people say AI actors don’t have real feelings”可知,许多人说 AI 演员没有真实情感。
【12题详解】
根据第三段最后一句“Their performances are not as touching as those of human actors”可知,AI演员的表演不如人类演员感人。
【13题详解】
根据最后一段上下文“They are not going to replace human actors completely”以及后文引用的“AI is a tool, not a replacement”可知,人工智能是一种工具,而非替代品,推断replace意为“取代”,对应短语Take the place of。
【14题详解】
根据第一段“AI actors are appearing in more and more Chinese short dramas.”“They are virtual (虚拟的) people created by AI technology.”及“Some Chinese companies have even signed contracts (签约) with AI actors and started filming short dramas with them.”可知,A、B、C选项均为文中陈述的客观事实,D选项“人们认为好故事需要真实的人类情感”是人们的主观看法,属于观点。
【15题详解】
文章第二段详细列举了AI演员的优势,第三段指出了其带来的问题和不足,最后一段总结其不会完全取代人类。作者客观全面地分析了情况,认为AI演员有利也有弊。

【解析】
【导语】本文讲述作者十三岁在新学校感到孤独,一个陌生女孩的微笑改变了作者的生活,让作者变得开朗并收获了友谊。
【21题详解】
句意:没有人认识我。
根据上下文,主人公刚来到新学校,knew表示“认识”贴合转学后陌生的语境。advised“建议”、warned“警告”、taught“教授”均和新环境场景不匹配,故排除。
【22题详解】
句意:我十分孤单,害怕和任何人交朋友。
根据上下文,独自在校内心胆怯,afraid表示“害怕的”符合内向孤单的状态。angry“生气的”、curious“好奇的”、patient“耐心的”语义不符,故排除。
【23题详解】
句意:每次听见其他同学说笑,我感到更加孤单。
根据前文I was very lonely,lonely表示“孤单的”,递进加深孤独情绪。busy“忙碌的”、excited“兴奋的”、relaxed“放松的”和低落心情冲突,故排除。
【24题详解】
句意:我无法把自己的烦恼分享给别人,也不想让父母为我担忧。
根据上下文,内心烦闷不愿倾诉他人,share表示“分享”,搭配share trouble。hide“隐藏”逻辑相反,believe“相信”、choose“选择”无法搭配trouble,故排除。
【25题详解】
句意:我无法把自己的烦恼分享给别人,也不想让父母为我担忧。
根据上下文,不想让家长操心自己的处境,worry about表示“为……担忧”。look up“查阅”、give up“放弃”、put off“推迟” 语义无关,故排除。
【26题详解】
句意:一天,同学们都和自己的朋友开心交谈,只有我安静坐在座位上。
根据校园场景,同学们结伴聊天,friends表示“朋友”。parents“父母”、teachers“老师”、cousins“堂表兄妹”不在教室,故排除。
【27题详解】
句意:就在这时,一个我不认识的女孩走进了教室。
根据前文in my seat坐在教室座位,classroom表示“教室”符合场景。library“图书馆”、hospital“医院”、shop“商店” 地点不符,故排除。
【28题详解】
句意:她看向我,一言不发,只是微笑了一下。
根据后文a word,without表示“没有”,without a word为固定搭配“一言不发”。with“带有”、for“为了”、except“除了”无法构成该短语,故排除。
【29题详解】
句意:忽然,我感受到一种明亮又友善的力量。
根据女孩微笑的暖心举动,friendly 表示“友善的”贴合温柔的氛围。funny“滑稽的”、strict“严格的”、serious“严肃的”不符合微笑传递的情绪,故排除。
【30题详解】
句意:它带给我巨大的快乐与温暖。
根据微笑治愈孤单的情节,happiness表示“快乐”贴合内心感受。sadness“悲伤”、trouble“烦恼”、success“成功”语义不符,故排除。
【31题详解】
句意:这真是一份珍贵的礼物。
文章开头点明It was a smile,将微笑视作重要礼物,gift表示“礼物”。lesson“课程”、advice“建议”、dream“梦想”和开篇主旨呼应不上,故排除。
【32题详解】
句意:那个微笑彻底改变了我的生活。
根据后文从孤僻到主动交友,changed表示“改变”体现前后人生状态的转变。kept“保持”、shocked“使震惊”、protected“保护”无转变含义,故排除。
【33题详解】
句意:日复一日,我学会信任他人,同学们也接纳我加入他们的小团体。
根据后文they accepted me接纳自己,trust表示“信任”是与人交往的基础。refuse“拒绝”语义相反,watch“观看”、notice“注意到”不符合交友逻辑,故排除。
【34题详解】
句意:那个面带温柔微笑的善良女孩成了我最亲密的朋友,我们总是形影不离。
根据closest friend挚友的设定,always表示“总是”体现长久相伴。seldom“很少”、never“从不”、hardly“几乎不”语义消极,故排除。
【35题详解】
句意:后来我问她那天为什么对我微笑,可她说她记不起来这件事了!

【答案】36.
picking 37.
his 38.
able 39.
orders 40.
because 41.
difference 42.
best 43.
remain
【解析】
【导语】本文讲述了服务犬Lucky自述陪伴行动不便的主人Ben,为其提供生活帮助的暖心故事。
【36题详解】
句意:像开门或捡起书这样简单的事情对他来说曾经非常困难。pick up意为“捡起”,固定搭配,此处表示捡起书。空处与opening并列,形式需保持一致,故此处也应使用pick的动名词形式picking。
【37题详解】
句意:有一天,他的一位朋友向动物助手们咨询,想为他找一只狗助手。“a friend of +名词性物主代词”表示“某人的一个朋友”,故将he变为名词性物主代词his。
【38题详解】
句意:本能够带我回家。be able to do sth.是固定搭配,意为“能够做某事”。
【39题详解】
句意:我认识很多英语单词,并且能完美地听从他的指令。follow one’s orders意为“听从某人的指令”,order为可数名词,此处表示不止一个指令,应使用复数形式orders。
【40题详解】
句意:这让我很高兴,因为我能让他的一天变得轻松一点。前后句为因果关系,后半句解释高兴的原因,故需用because引导原因状语从句。
【41题详解】
句意:多亏了动物助手,我才能为他艰难的生活带来改变。make a difference是固定短语,意为“产生影响,带来改变”。
【42题详解】
句意:做他的“助手狗”是有史以来最好的事情。空前定冠词“the”和空后“ever”表明,此处应填形容词的最高级,good的最高级为best。
【43题详解】
句意:我与他度过的时光将永远留在我的心中。结合“the time that I spend with him will…in my heart forever”及备选词可知,此处表示将永远留在我的心中。助动词will后接动词原形,remain意为“留下,保持”,符合句意。
第二节
阅读短文,根据语篇要求填空,使短文通顺、意思完整。每空限填一词。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了许昌中央公园的地理位置、面积、美丽的景色以及人们在公园里的休闲活动。
【44题详解】
句意:它总面积约220万平方米,是我市最大的公园。largest是形容词large的最高级形式,形容词最高级前面必须加定冠词the,用于限定特指全市范围内规模最大的公园。
【45题详解】
句意:这里充满清新的空气与秀丽的风景。固定搭配be full of,意为“充满……”,介词of后接名词,作full的补充说明成分。
【46题详解】
句意:在公园里,随处可见五彩斑斓的鲜花与高大的树木。many colorful flowers和tall trees是两个并列对等的名词短语,属于并列事物,并列连词and用于连接并列名词,翻译为“和”。
【47题详解】
句意:这里还有一片水质清澈的大湖。本句为there be存在句型,遵循就近一致原则,空格后a big lake是单数可数名词,全文使用一般现在时介绍客观情况,因此be 动词选用is。
【48题详解】
句意:这是适合一家人野餐的绝佳场所。固定结构a place for sb. to do sth.,不定式to have a picnic作后置定语,限定说明这个场所的用途;to为不定式符号,后接动词原形。

【解析】

【49题详解】
上文A问“Have you heard of…?”,这是现在完成时的一般疑问句。下文B说“There are many fun activities.”,可知,B对这个活动很了解,因此应作肯定回答。故填Yes, I have。
【50题详解】
下文B的回答列举了具体的活动内容(join book-sharing activities, visit the book fair…)。因此,A此处应该是在询问“我们可以做什么?”。故填What can we do there。
【51题详解】
下文B回答“Sure, I’d love to.”,这是接受邀请的常用答语。结合上文A说“I plan to go…”,可知A是在邀请B一起去。故填Would you like to go with me。
【52题详解】
下文B回答了一个书名,且前文B提到“I want to share my favorite book with them.”。因此,A此处是询问B具体要分享哪本书。故填which book will you share。
【53题详解】
下文A回答说“You are right.”,说明B在此处表达了对这本书的评价或看法。结合语境,B分享这本书是因为它很好或有意义。可以填“It’s a great book”等表示赞美的句子。

【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了爱好的重要性,阐述了身体爱好和创造性爱好对健康和情感的益处,提醒要平衡爱好选择,建议选择户外活动类爱好,强调要为爱好腾出时间。
【55题详解】
句意:当我们有诸多重要事务要处理时,很难为爱好腾出时间。根据语境“当我们有很多重要事情要做时,很难为爱好腾出时间”,when引导时间状语从句,故填when。
【56题详解】
句意:诸如徒步旅行或打网球这类体育类爱好,能够帮助你保持身体健康。此句的“stay”在句中作系动词,后需接形容词作表语,结合此句的语境,此处表达“健康的”,“healthy”表示“健康的”,形容词,在此句中作表语。 .
【57题详解】
句意:一些科学家认为,创作音乐能够降低我们的血压,还能让我们的身体变得更强健。“make music”表示“创作音乐”,根据此句是that引导的宾语从句,从句的主语需用动名词作主语,所以此处的“make”需用动名词形式“making”。
【58题详解】
句意:演奏乐器也能让我们的大脑保持年轻。主语Playing an instrument是动名词短语,作主语时谓语动词用第三人称单数形式,“使我们的大脑年轻”,所以填keeps。
【59题详解】
句意:爱好对你的情绪健康也大有裨益。此句的“emotional well-being”表示“情绪健康”,是名词短语,前面需用形容词性的物主代词,此处表达“你的”,所以用形容词性物主代词“your”。
【60题详解】
句意:绘画或写作等创造性爱好能帮助你通过表达感受来应对负面情绪。“通过给你一种表达感受的方式”,by表示“通过某种方式”,所以填by。
【61题详解】
句意:不过,尽管爱好能带来诸多益处,找到二者间恰当的平衡也十分重要。“找到合适的平衡很重要”,find the right balance是常用表达,所以填balance。
【62题详解】
句意:这类活动通常也以独自进行的方式开展,这可能会让部分人产生孤独感。hobbies和do是被动关系,用过去分词作后置定语,“通常独自完成的爱好”,所以填done。
【63题详解】
句意:何不选择一项户外爱好来替代呢?根据后文“Fresh air, green spaces, peace and quiet”可知是户外爱好,所以填outdoor。
【64题详解】
句意:和朋友一同外出闲逛能消解孤独感,同时也是维系、增进彼此情谊的不错方式。hang out是固定短语,“闲逛”,此句中,“hang out”作主语,所以“hang”需用动名词形式“hanging”,因为放句首,首字母需大写“Hanging”。
【65题详解】
文章第二段主要讲述了不同类型的爱好对保持健康的益处,包括体育爱好和其他爱好如音乐相关爱好等。A选项“爱好能帮助你保持健康。”符合第二段的大意。
【66题详解】
根据第三段提到“After just 45 minutes of making art, most of the participants reported feeling more confident.”可知是参与研究的人,所以“participants”意思是“参与研究的人”,B选项“参与研究的人员”符合。
【67题详解】
文章通过阐述爱好的好处等内容,是为了告诉读者爱好的重要性,D选项“以此展现培养兴趣爱好的益处,并给出一些合适的相关推荐。”符合。
