B Nowadays,women entrepreneurs (in tech face many challenges,such as difficulty in obtaining funding and lack of guidance on patents.To help address this, UNESCO launched a project called the African Women in Tech and AI (AWITAI), which is intended to train 150 women entrepreneurs from 35 African countries in AI and data science. Jihane Ouhejjou is one of the participants in this project.With the training and support she received,she has been using technological innovation to make positive changes for her community and the environment. Born in Morocco,a country frequently hit by droughts,Ouhejjou has long been concerned about a serious problem across Africa:20%to 40%of water is wasted during distribution through water pipes.Growing up in a family where access to water was always a challenge,she learned from an early age inat water is a precious resource that needs to be carefully protected. To solve this problem,Ouhejjou developed an AI system.She is now working with a Moroccan hardware partner to improve her product.The partner provides specialized sensors that measure water pressure,flow speed and other environmental data.These sensors collect data,which is then analyzed by the Al.The AI can quickly detect any issues in the water distribution network and identify unusual conditions at an early stage-before they develop into serious failures. Across Africa,more women like Ouhejjou are playing a key role in shaping the future of technology.They are not only starting their own businesses but also designing solutions to some of the continent's most urgent problems-such as water waste,energy shortage,and food insecurity-using their talents to drive sustainable development. 英语试题▲第3页（共8页） 24.What is the main aim of the AWITAI?

Tney found the data in 355 existing studies on the subject. "It's the everyday stuff that we're using,"said Richard Thompson,the founder of the University of Plymouth's international marine litter research unit."Even in countries 订 with fairly advanced waste management,those are the dominant items on the shoreline. He said he was not surprised to see lots of single-use plastics in the data,but the tact that those items turned up so consistently along coastlines across all seven continents had taken him aback. To produce the analysis,published in the journal One Earth,the researchers looked at data from hundreds of studies and sources,searching for surveys of shoreline litter that were similar in methodology (and provided data on the type of litter recorded. Their confidence in the figures for each country was based on how many studies they found for that country and other factors. The information they collected extended across 94 countries.Food and drink-related piastics turned up in coastal litter in 93%0 of those places.No other form of litter was as 线 common.Plastic bags appeared in data from 39%of countries and cigarettes in data from 38%of countries.There were,however,some regional variations.Plastic bags,for example,were consistently common in Asia. The study also noted that a ban on plastic bags did not necessarily mean a country had less of such waste-poor policy enforcement or other countries exporting their waste was suggested as a reason for this.The study did not include microplastics or unidentifiable plastics,but the authors noted these tended to originate from larger, identifiable plastic litter. 28.What is the key finding of the researchers? A.Global coasts show identical litter patterns. B.Food-related plastics dominate coastal litter. C.Advanced management fails to reduce waste. D.Daily necessities are underrated in terms of reuse. 英语试题▲第4页（共8页） 29.What does the underlined phrase "taken him aback"in paragraph 3 probably mean? A.Caught him red-handed. B.Taken him by surprise. C.Thrown him into confusion. D.Left him heart-broken. 30.How did the researchers mainly arrive at their findings? A.By analyzing previous data. B.By gathering on-site data. 6.By using improved methodology. D.By conducting new surveys. 31.What does paragraph 5 mainly say about the study? A.Its design. B.Its result. C.Its background. D.Its limitation. ◇ Small,colorless,and blind cavefishes inhabit underground waters throughout the eastern United States.In a new study,Yale researchers reveal insights into just how these distinctive cave residents evolved-and provide a unique method for dating the underground ecosystems where they reside. In an analysis of the genomes (of all known blind species,the researchers found that the different species colonized (cave systems independently of each other and separately evolved similar features-such as the loss of eyes and color-as they 注意清点有无漏印或缺页， adapted to their dark cave environments.Their findings are published in the journal Molecular Biology and Evolution. By studying the specific genetic mutations (that caused the fishes'eyes to degenerate over time,the researchers developed a sort of "mutational clock"that allowed 订 them to estimate when each species began losing their vision.They found that the vision-related genes of the oldest cavefish species,the Ozark cavefish,began degenerating up to 11 million years ago.This technique provides a minimum age for the caves,as the cavefish must have been living in underground waters when their eyesight started to devolve. To understand when the cavefish began populating caves,the researchers studied the 若有要及时更换。 fishes'genomes,examining 88 vision-related genes for mutations.The analysis revealed that the various cavefish ancestries had completely different sets of genetic mutations involved in the loss of vision.This,they said,suggests that separate species colonized caves and adapted to those underground ecosystems independently of each other. "A number of the mutations we see in the cavefish genomes that lead to degeneration of the eyes are similar to mutations that cause eye diseases in humans,said Thomas Near,senior author of the study."There is the possibility for translational medicine 线 through which by studying this natural system in cavefishes,we can collect insights into the genomic mechanisms of eye diseases in humans." 32.What did Yale researchers discover about blind cavefishes? A.They evolved independently. B.They had identical mutations. C.They shared common ancestors. D.They developed at the same pace. 33.What is the function of the mutational clock? A.Estimating cavefish ages. B.Confirming the formation of caves. C.Identifying the time of vision loss. D.Improving the underground ecosystems. 34.What evidence shows cavefish species colonized caves separately? A.Diverse genome numbers. B.Similar mutation patterns. C.Different vision-loss mutations. B.Uniform genomic mechanisms. 英语试题▲第5页（共8页） 35.What can be the best title for the text? A.Mutational Clock B.Cavefish Evolution C.Vision-Related Genomes D.Independent Colonization 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人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项 为多余选项。 Is It Time to See Dyslexia(读写障碍)as a Superpower? Most of us think we know what dyslexia is:a disorder that prevents people from reading well.36 That's why we see the struggles that kids with dyslexia face in school:falling behind in homework,needing extra help,and feeling bad about themselves. But what if this "problem"view is completely wrong?37 And what if a new way of looking at it would help these kids discover their superpower?This is the surprising claim made in a new documentary,The Dyslexic Advantage. Psychologists Fernette and Brock Eide have come to believe that dyslexia is "not a disease,but a gift".38 They learn best through direct experience,not through reading or repeating things over and over. One of the most creative ideas in The Dyslexic Advantage is a list of strengths, called MIND:Material reasoning,Interconnected reasoning,Narrative(叙事性的)reasoning, and Dynamic reasoning.39 To help explain these ideas,the fikm interviews successful people in filmmaking, engineering,medicine,and art.40 For example,Robert Ballard,one of the discoverers of the Titanic wreck ()used his strong dynamic reasoning to find its location. Adopting this new approach doesn't mean ignoring a child's problems with reading and writing,nor does it exclude extra help in those areas.But the most important idea is to help dyslexic kids build on their strengths,rather than focusing exclusively on their weaknesses. A.Simply put,dyslexic minds are specialized. B.It hurts the brain's ability to process written language. S.What if dyslexia is a different thinking style with strengths? D.What if dyslexia can be completely cured with proper training? E People with dyslexia tend to be very good at one or more of these. F.These disadvantages caused by dyslexia should be seen as a trade-off. G.It turns out that their success happened not despite their dyslexia,but because of it. 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四个选项中选出最佳选项。 No specialized equipment,no training:Candelaria,30,won the 63 km Canyons Ultramarathon(峡谷超级马拉松)in Mexico in7 hours and34 minutes.This achievement 41 the world.It also brought her to tears-tears of 42 for the people who made her (who she is.

For four generations,the Mitchells had tended those trees,shipping apples across the 疗 state.But when Dad turned 18,he left for the city.The family farm became a distant memory he rarely mentioned,a place I knew only from old photographs in a dusty album. That changed last September.My cousin Emma,the only relative still living in our hometown,sent us a box of apples with a note inside:"Uncle David,this year's harvest 订 is one of our best,but there's barely anyone left to pick them.Three more families have 日豆 sold their land to developers.If things don't change,the orchard won't survive another five years.” 页 My father read the note in silence,his jaw tight.For days,he barely spoke.Then one evening at dinner,he put down his fork and said quietly,"I'm going back.Not just for a visit-I want to figure out how to save it.
