Ⅰ.阅读理解(每小题2.5分)
A
(2026·四川省联合测评)When the first season of Downton Abbey aired in the U.S., my wife Carol and I were totally absorbed.Carol, who writes under the name, Carol Wallace, had always been fascinated by English history, especially the period when American wealthy women married into the British nobility (贵族).She co-authored To Marry an English Lord in 1989, a book about this topic, but it was long out of print.Downton Abbey seemed to reflect many themes from her book, even featuring an American character married to the British lordly owner of the house.

‹#›
As the second season aired in Britain in fall 2011, the New York Times ran a piece suggesting books for Downton Abbey fans.Sadly, Carol's book wasn't included.“I wish you could talk to Julian Fellowes, the writer for the series,” I said.“He'd love your book.” “But how could we ever reach him?” Carol replied.
Later that afternoon, while walking down Thirty-Fourth Street in New York, I ran into an old friend.She introduced me to a friend who, to my surprise, knew how to contact Julian Fellowes.Thanks to her involvement in a British historical society, she had his contact details and shared them with me.
返回
‹#›
Carol emailed Fellowes that evening, unsure if he'd even see it.The next day, she heard directly from him.He was a big fan of her book, and, in fact, it had informed the series.Fellowes offered to write to the New York Times, which published his letter to the editor almost immediately.
“In your article about books that might please fans of Downton Abbey,” Fellowes wrote, “I was sorry that one title was missing: To Marry an English Lord...”
返回
‹#›
Carol thanked him and asked if he'd write a promotional description for the book, which she hoped may inspire a reprint.Of course, by all means, Fellowes agreed.When the book was republished, it was labeled “an inspiration for the popular television series Downton Abbey”.Thanks to this, the book sold more copies than before—all because of an unexpected chain of events that only angels could have seen coming.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Carol所写的书To Marry an English Lord与英剧Downton Abbey的关联。Carol偶然联系这部剧的编剧Julian Fellowes,她的书因此再版并畅销。

Consider the hierarchy (层次) of needs proposed in 1943 by the psychologist Abraham Maslow.Maslow believed that people tend to focus on meeting their needs in a particular order of urgency.We start with survival needs such as food, shelter, and safety.Once these have been met, we turn our attention to social and emotional needs, such as love and belonging.Finally, we focus on higher-order needs such as self-actualization—in other words, looking for life's meaning.
返回
‹#›
Of these three levels, money is only truly helpful for the first.This is why economists often find that well-being doesn't improve much once a person reaches the relatively humble financial means that meet those needs.The “middle needs” of love and belonging—family, friends, romance—can't be met with money, and pursuing money with too much gusto can even result in unexpected consequences.
Focusing too much on money is actively opposed to Maslow's highest-level needs, because doing so can lead people into a trap that researchers call “financial contingency of self-worth,” which happens when a person's self-esteem is conditional on his or her financial success.
返回
‹#›
This might explain why stress levels are high both when money is tight and when people reach higher income levels.A 2018 survey found that stress at work falls when people earn more than $50,000, but then starts to rise significantly when people earn above $200,000.One reason for the stress among high earners is their neglect (忽略) of relationships, according to some researchers.
返回
‹#›
Perhaps your parents always put a lot of pressure on you to succeed financially, or you tend to be insecure about your self-worth and rely a lot on social comparison.One way or another, you might be measuring yourself in money, and without realizing it, hoping that at some point you will be “expensive” enough to earn others' love and respect.Your instincts (直觉) might be telling you to earn more, more, more in order to find peace and satisfaction.Your instincts are lying, and you could get much happier by reassessing your priorities.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇议论文。文章讨论了心理学家马斯洛的需求层次理论,以及金钱在满足人类需求中的作用。
返回
‹#›
5.What is the primary role of money according to Maslow's hierarchy of needs?( )
A.It ensures a sense of safety.
B.It satisfies all levels of needs.
C.It is crucial for self-actualization.
D.It is most effective for basic survival needs.
解析:D 细节理解题。根据第一段中“We start with survival needs such as food, shelter, and safety....needs such as self-actualization—in other words, looking for life's meaning.”以及第二段中“Of these three levels, money is only truly helpful...reaches the relatively humble financial means that meet those needs.”可知,金钱对人类基本需求的满足最为有效,而对其他层次的需求帮助有限。故选D。

6.What does “gusto” mean in paragraph 2?( )
A.Resistance. B.Enthusiasm.
C.Indifference. D.Hesitation.

A.It leads to a constant need for financial growth.
B.It complicates financial choices for the wealthy.
C.It may overshadow social and emotional bonds.
D.It increases the pressure to maintain high income.
解析:C 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段可知,过度追求金钱可能会导致人们忽视人际关系,从而影响他们的社会和情感需求。故选C。

1.解析:with 考查介词。provide sb with sth是固定表达,表示“为某人提供某物”。
2.解析:bringing 考查非谓语动词。这里需要一个非谓语动词作后置定语,由于bring与其逻辑主语AI是主动关系,因此用动词-ing形式。
3.解析:that 考查同位语从句。本空后面句子说明了concerns的具体内容,因此用连词that引导一个同位语从句。
4.解析:a 考查冠词。这里a tool表示“一种工具”概念,与后面的a substitute形成对比。
返回
‹#›
5.解析:simply 考查副词。本空后面是表达动词概念的providing,结合语境应该用副词来修饰它。simply在此意为“仅仅”。
6.解析:were chosen 考查时态和语态。本句时间状语为In February 2024,且表达被动概念,因此用一般过去时的被动语态。
7.解析:to develop 考查非谓语动词。表达目的应该用动词不定式形式,这里动词不定式短语作表语。
8.解析:larger 考查形容词比较级。本空后面的than before暗示这里应该用形容词比较级。
返回
‹#›
9.解析:objectives 考查名词复数。此处objective是可数名词,这里表示推进中小学人工智能教育的关键目标,结合语境应该用复数形式。
10.解析:and 考查连词。这里“to establish a structured AI curriculum”与“promote AI-driven teaching and assessment”以及“achieve full AI education in primary and secondary schools”是三个并列的动词不定式短语,因此用并列连词and。

第二节(满分25分)
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I joined the Navy in 2022.It's not just a job.It's an adventure.
On a crisp October morning,I started training at Officer Candidate School in Newport,Rhode Island.
I didn't grow up in the military,so everything was new.Every day,my company followed the Plan of the Day.We attended classes from Monday to Friday,played sports at Mandatory Fun on Saturday,and endured daily room inspections.
返回
‹#›
One day,the Plan of the Day told us to report to the swimming pool.The Navy had instructed us to bring a one-piece bathing suit,a terrycloth bathrobe,and a thick towel,so I knew there would be a swimming test.
I didn't expect it to be a challenge because I had recently overcome my fear of water.When I was twenty-four years old,I took swim classes at the YWCA-Guppy classes,in fact.They were for people like me who had to build up the courage to jump into the water.
To my amazement,I enjoyed the Guppy class.I signed up for the next one,and the next and the next.I learned all the basic strokes,how to drown-proof,how to swim to the deep end without panicking,and how to float on my back.When I saw that the next class involved the diving board,I decided I had learned enough.
返回
‹#›
As it turned out,that wasn't necessarily the case.The day came,toward the end of Officer Candidate School,when we had to prove that we could swim.
“A piece of cake,” I told myself.I felt comfortable in the water.
The first exercise was easy.We had to swim from the shallow end of the pool to the deep end and back using any stroke we wished.
And then we were told that we were going to jump off a twelve-foot platform.We were to fold our hands over our chests,take a deep breath,hold our noses,and jump.

注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;2.请按如下格式作答。
We went up the stairs and lined up for our turn. ___________________

[参考范文]
We went up the stairs and lined up for our turn.One after the other,officer candidates jumped in and surfaced.When it was my turn,I went to the edge,put my toes in the proper place...and froze.There was no way I was jumping twelve feet into the water.Until that moment,I hadn't realized I had a fear of heights.Frightened and embarrassed,I was holding up the line,but I couldn't move an inch.
返回
‹#›
The guy behind me said,“You need a push?”“Yes,because that's the only way I'm getting off this platform.” With a clumsy jump,I disappeared beneath the water,leaving ripples expanding outward.It was the most terrifying thing I had ever done.Later,when I thanked the guy for the push,he gave me a smile and said he had fun pushing me off the platform.The experience challenged me and made me a braver and stronger person.Getting outside my comfort zone was good for me—I learned how much I could do that I didn't know I could do.
