It has the largest population of immigrants on the planet. Over 35% of its residents are born outside the USA. You can hear over 800 languages in New York City being spoken on a daily basis. Which is the most multicultural district in the city? Queens is the largest and also the most ethnically diverse urban area in the world! London London may come in second place behind New York City for the percentage of immigrant population. But it is easily the most diverse city in all of Europe. Bangladeshis, Pakistanis, and Indians are a few of the larger immigrant groups, and a walk around the city will uncover that they have definitely brought their cultures with them. People from around the world are drawn to London and over 30% of its residents are born outside the UK. Singapore This city-state is not just the main financial centre of Southeast Asia, but also one of the most diverse places on the planet. Singapore has four official languages: Mandarin Chinese, English, Malay, and Tamil. It is also a centre for international residents. So, you are sure to meet large communities of permanent residents who are foreign-born. Sydney Following World War II, Sydney saw a huge inflow of immigrants. This trend has continued into the present day, making Sydney one of the most diverse cities in the world. Although English is the official language spoken in Sydney, this city is home to more than 250 languages. Immigrants from places such as Vietnam, India, and South America have made this city their home and brought their cultures with them. You will be spoilt for choice (多得挑花眼) when it comes to Sydney’s cultural diversity! 1. What do New York City and London have in common? A. They are suitable for minorities to earn a living. B. They make it their mission to attract immigrants. C. Over 800 languages are spoken daily in both cities. D. More than 30% of their populations are foreign-born. 2. What makes Sydney one of the most multicultural cities? A. Language. B. Immigration. C. Economy. D. Education. 3. Where can you find the most ethnically diverse district? A. In New York City. B. In Sydney. C. In Singapore. D. In London. 【答案】1. D 2. B 3. A 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了纽约、伦敦、新加坡、悉尼四座文化多元城市，对比各地移民、语言与多元文化特色。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据New York City部分“Over 35% of its residents are born outside the USA. (超过35%的居民出生在美国以外)”以及London部分“over 30% of its residents are born outside the UK (超过30%的居民出生在英国以外)”可知，这两个城市的共同点是都有超过30%的人口是在外国出生的。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Sydney部分“Following World War II, Sydney saw a huge inflow of immigrants. This trend has continued into the present day, making Sydney one of the most diverse cities in the world. (二战后，悉尼迎来了大量移民的涌入。这一趋势一直延续至今，使得悉尼成为世界上最多元化的城市之一)”可知，移民让悉尼成为最多元文化的城市之一。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据New York City部分“Queens is the largest and also the most ethnically diverse urban area in the world! (皇后区是纽约市最大的行政区，也是世界上种族最多元化的城区)”可知，在纽约市可以找到种族最多元化的地区。 B Vivian learned to read and write English at just two years old before her family moved to PEI, Canada, where she attended a public school. Vivian says her love for learning came from her grandmother, a high school biology teacher. “She taught me at a very young age. We’d go to the park and she would make up a game and I wouldn’t even know that I was learning,” she tells the local newspaper Charlottetown Guardian. Vivian hoped for grade-skipping due to her excellence in all subjects. Her parents have been supportive of her drive to seek knowledge. However, the school officials were concerned that she wouldn’t keep up socially with her older classmates if she were to skip more than one grade. Then, she wrote to the newspaper. “Imagine you are playing an exciting video game. You defeat the boss and are ready to move on to the next stage. However, you discover that the game requires you to wait until every other player has finished. Imagine the boredom you would experience and the loss of desire to play afterwards,” she wrote in the letter. “In our current educational system, this is how it works. Kids should be allowed to fly when they’re ready.” Vivian moved with her family from PEI to Halifax, and at a private school there, after several tests, teachers placed her in Grade 8 from fourth grade. After a brief high school career in British Columbia, she returned to PEI to attend university, where she hoped to gain the skills to become a veterinarian (兽医). Vivian was just 12 when she began her university studies — and is on track to finish a biology degree before she can get behind the wheel of a car. So far, university has been no sweat for Vivian. She finished her first semester with grades above 91 percent. Now, at 13, she has just wrapped her first year at the University of Prince Edward Island. 4. How did Vivian’s grandmother educate her at a young age? A. She led her to study unconsciously. B. She set a good example for her. C. She was supportive of her choices. D. She forced her to learn from childhood. 5. Why did Vivian mention playing a video game in her letter? A. To illustrate an idea. B. To clarify a concept. C. To propose a solution. D. To make an assumption. 6. What was Vivian’s purpose in moving from PEI to Halifax? A. To get her biology degree. B. To study as a veterinarian. C. To skip grades successfully. D. To stick to her hobby freely. 7. What lesson can we learn from Vivian’s story? A. Learning at an early age can be harder. B. School systems should be more flexible. C. Self-acceptance depends on self-pride. D. School education equals home studying. 【答案】4. A 5. A 6. C 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了早慧少女薇薇安因公立学校制度限制无法跳级，转学后顺利越级升学，13岁就读大学的故事，引发对教育灵活性的思考。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“She taught me at a very young age. We’d go to the park and she would make up a game and I wouldn’t even know that I was learning, (她在我很小的时候就教我学习。我们会去公园，她会编出游戏，我甚至都意识不到自己正在学习，)” 可知，奶奶通过游戏的方式引导薇薇安在不知不觉中学习。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Imagine you are playing an exciting video game. You defeat the boss and are ready to move on to the next stage. However, you discover that the game requires you to wait until every other player has finished. Imagine the boredom you would experience and the loss of desire to play afterwards, (想象一下：你正玩着一款扣人心弦的电子游戏，击败Boss后正准备进入下一关。可你却发现，游戏要求你必须等其他所有玩家都完成当前关卡后才能继续。想想你会感到多么乏味，之后也彻底失去了继续玩下去的兴致，)”描述薇薇安信中用打游戏通关却要等待其他玩家的类比，以及后文“In our current educational system, this is how it works. Kids should be allowed to fly when they’re ready. (我们当下的教育体系就是这样运作的。应该允许准备好的孩子展翅高飞。)”可知，她提到电子游戏是为了形象地阐明自己对教育制度的观点。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“However, the school officials were concerned that she wouldn’t keep up socially with her older classmates if she were to skip more than one grade. (然而校方担心，如果她跳超过一级，就无法和年长的同学正常社交。)”以及第四段“Vivian moved with her family from PEI to Halifax, and at a private school there, after several tests, teachers placed her in Grade 8 from fourth grade .(薇薇安一家从爱德华王子岛搬到哈利法克斯，在当地的一所私立学校，经过多项测试后，老师将她从四年级直接升到了八年级。)”可知，她搬家的目的是为了能够顺利跳级。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“In our current educational system, this is how it works. Kids should be allowed to fly when they’re ready. (我们当下的教育体系就是这样运作的。应该允许准备好的孩子展翅高飞。)”以及第四段薇薇安在公立学校被限制跳级、转学至私立学校后顺利越级升学的经历可知，文章表明僵化的教育制度会束缚学生发展，学校体系应当更加灵活，适配不同学生的成长节奏。 C Using AI to help write a message to a friend is not a good idea — at least if your friend finds out about the use of AI, a new study suggests. Researchers found that people in the study believed that a friend who used AI to write them a message didn’t put in as much effort as a friend who wrote a message themselves. That may be understandable, but the effect goes beyond the message itself, said Bingjie Liu, lead author of the study. “After they get an AI message, our participants (参与者) feel less satisfied with their relationship with their friend and feel more uncertain about where they stand,” Liu said. But to be fair to AI, it wasn’t just the use of technology that turned people off. “People want their partners or friends to make an effort to come up with their own message without help from AI or other people,” Liu said. “People want to know how much you want to invest in your friendship and if they feel you are cutting corners by using AI to help, that’s not good,” Liu explained. Of course, most people won’t tell a friend that they used AI to help write a message, Liu said. But she noted that as ChatGPT becomes more popular, people may start doing a Turing Test in their minds as they read messages from friends and others. Turing Test is sometimes used to refer to people wondering if they can tell whether an action was taken by a computer or a person. “It could be that people will secretly do this Turing Test in their minds, trying to figure out if messages have some AI component (成分),” Liu said. “It may hurt relationships.” The answer is to do your own work in relationships, she said. “Don’t use technology just because it is convenient. Sincerity still matters a lot in relationships.” 8. How did people in the study feel about receiving an AI message from their friend? A. Thankful. B. Surprised. C. Dissatisfied. D. Embarrassed. 9. Why do people prefer that friends write messages themselves instead of using AI? A. AI messages often have many mistakes. B. People believe AI lacks emotional depth. C. Friends who use AI are considered dishonest. D. People want to see the effort invested in the friendship. 10. What’s the purpose of starting a Turing Test according to Liu? A. To judge the level of ChatGPT. B. To see if AI has been used in a message. C. To test the sincerity of an online friend. D. To learn how to communicate with AI. 11. What is Liu’s suggestion? A. Believing in the development of technology. B. Paying attention to real-world friends. C. Being actively honest in relationships. D. Thinking twice before making a convenient choice. 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍一项新研究：用人工智能代写朋友消息会降低对方对友谊的满意度、破坏人际关系，研究者解释背后原因并建议人际交往应依靠自身真诚付出，不要单纯贪图便利使用AI。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“After they get an AI message, our participants (参与者) feel less satisfied with their relationship with their friend and feel more uncertain about where they stand(参与者收到AI生成的消息后，会对自己和朋友的关系感到更不满意，也对彼此的关系定位更加迷茫) ”可知，收到朋友AI代写消息的人会感到不满。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段““People want to know how much you want to invest in your friendship and if they feel you are cutting corners by using AI to help, that’s not good,” Liu explained.(Liu解释道：“人们想知道你愿意为这段友谊投入多少心血，如果他们觉得你借助人工智能敷衍了事，那就会让人心里不舒服。”)”可知，人们更喜欢朋友自己写信息，而不是使用人工智能，因为人们希望看到对方在友谊中付出的努力。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“Turing Test is sometimes used to refer to people wondering if they can tell whether an action was taken by a computer or a person.(图灵测试在这里指人们分辨一段内容是电脑还是人写出来的)”以及第六段“It could be that people will secretly do this Turing Test in their minds, trying to figure out if messages have some AI component (成分)(人们会在心里悄悄进行这种图灵测试，试图判断消息里是否有人工智能参与创作的成分)”可知，人们做心里的图灵测试是为了分辨消息是否使用了AI。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段““Don’t use technology just because it is convenient. Sincerity still matters a lot in relationships.”(“不要仅仅因为方便就使用科技，真诚在人际关系中依然十分重要。”)”可知，研究者建议人们在交往中保持真诚、脚踏实地用心对待关系。 D Have you ever wondered what happens to all of the old objects launched into space, such as rockets and satellites? They are called space junk (太空垃圾), and much of it is still out there now. According to NASA, the definition of space junk is “any man-made object in orbit around Earth that no longer serves a useful function”. One large piece of space junk, a disused rocket, hit the dark side of the moon on 4 March. The rocket’s origin is not clear, but scientists know that it was massive — weighing about 3 tons. It must have left a large crater (坑), estimated 10 to 20 metres wide, on the moon’s surface. It won’t be visible right away, but scientists are trying to locate it. “We will find the crater, eventually,” Mark Robinson, lead investigator for NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera, told USA Today. “Depending on its location, it could take as long as 28 days.” What’s significant about this space junk crash is that it draws attention to some of the potential dangers of space junk. First, the accumulation of space junk in Earth’s orbit means that satellites and the International Space Station are at risk. In 2016, tiny space debris (残骸), smaller than a millimetre, caused a tiny chip in the ISS’ window. Imagine the damage that a larger piece of debris could cause. The European Space Agency website states that objects “up to 1 cm in size could disable an instrument or a critical flight system on a satellite” while objects over 10 cm “could shatter a satellite or spacecraft into pieces”. If this sounds terrifying, that’s because it is. Any collision (碰撞) with larger pieces of debris could be especially dangerous for manned spacecraft. In addition to potential damage to spacecraft and satellites, space junk also poses a threat to Earth itself. Crashes can send debris into the atmosphere where it can remain for many decades. Some powerful crashes can even send large debris hurtling (猛冲) towards Earth’s surface where it can affect the local environment. Leftover rocket debris can contain toxic (有毒的) materials that are harmful to plant and animal life. Some people in Siberia have even reported serious health problems after rocket debris landed in their regions in 2012, a local doctor told the BBC. 12. Which of the following can be regarded as space junk? A. An abandoned space station. B. A spacecraft orbiting the moon. C. A crater on the moon’s surface. D. A satellite working in low Earth orbit. 13. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A. Tracking the rocket. B. Locating the crater. C. Cleaning up the space junk. D. Finding out the rocket’s origin. 14. Why does the author mention the damage caused by tiny space debris in 2016? A. To compare the effects of debris of different sizes. B. To prove the space debris problem is getting worse. C. To illustrate the potential dangers of space junk. D. To explain the necessity of removing space junk. 15. What can be inferred about space junk from the last paragraph? A. It’s likely to cause a global environmental crisis. B. It can pose a lasting threat if it remains in the atmosphere. C. It’s impossible to stop it from entering the atmosphere. D. The biggest threat comes from the toxic materials contained in space junk. 【答案】12. A 13. B 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了太空垃圾的定义，借火箭撞月事件引出其危害，包括威胁航天器与地球生态、毒害生物。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“the definition of space junk is ‘any man-made object in orbit around Earth that no longer serves a useful function’ (太空垃圾的定义是“环绕地球轨道运行、不再具备实用功能的任何人造物体”)”可知，废弃空间站属于失去使用价值的人造太空物体。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段“scientists are trying to locate it (科学家正努力定位它)”、“We will find the crater, eventually (我们最终会找到这个陨石坑)”以及“Depending on its location, it could take as long as 28 days. (根据它的位置不同，____最长可能需要28天)”可知，it指代前文定位陨石坑。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“What’s significant about this space junk crash is that it draws attention to some of the potential dangers of space junk. (这次太空垃圾撞击事件的重要意义在于，它让人们关注到太空垃圾存在的各类潜在危险)”以及“If this sounds terrifying, that’s because it is. (如果这听起来很吓人，那是因为它本就很吓人)”可知，举该例子是为说明太空垃圾存在潜在危险。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Crashes can send debris into the atmosphere where it can remain for many decades. (撞击会将残骸送入大气层，残骸可在大气中留存数十年之久)”可推知，太空垃圾若停留在大气层会造成长期威胁。 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山可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The world where we live is a colorful place with different languages, skin colors, and different cultures. ____16____.

His clothes were simple, and his worn-out shoes had a small hole near the toe. Just then, a smooth, black car stopped near him. A kind-looking man, Tom, rolled down the window and asked, “How much for the tissues, young man?” “One dollar each, sir,” Liam replied politely. “I’ll take them all,” Tom said with a warm smile. He handed Liam a ten-dollar bill and drove away with the tissues. Liam’s eyes widened with joy. “Thank you, sir!” he shouted, holding the money tightly. Feeling excited, Liam decided to buy something he wanted most: a pair of new shoes. The ones he wore were too small and hurt his feet every day. He hurried to a shoe store he had passed many times. Through the big window, he saw a perfect pair of brown shoes. They looked strong and comfortable. But the price tag said $100. Liam stopped. He leaned closer to the glass, staring at the shoes. Tom happened to drive past the store again and noticed Liam standing by the window. He slowed down. From a distance, Tom saw the shopkeeper step out and speak gently to Liam. Then Tom saw the sadness on Liam’s face. Though Liam said nothing, Tom noticed how Liam’s fingers tightened around the ten-dollar bill and how his eyes returned to the brown shoes. At that sight, memories rose uninvited. Tom remembered his own childhood — the days of worn shoes and the shame he once felt when help came in the wrong way. But Tom also remembered one moment clearly: a stranger had helped him, saying only, “Keep going. You’ll earn your way forward.” Standing there, Tom finally understood. The boy did not need pity but the same respect he himself had once been given. It was at that moment that Tom made up his mind. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡上作答： Para1: Tom entered the shoe store and went straight to the shopkeeper. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Para2: After paying ten dollars, Liam opened the shoe box, finding a card inside. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 Tom entered the shoe store and went straight to the shopkeeper. Lowering his voice, Tom asked the shopkeeper to mark the brown shoes as on sale for ten dollars, making it a special offer for Liam, and he said he would pay the rest. The shopkeeper was moved by Tom’s kindness. Then Tom gently placed a small note inside the box before stepping out. Soon, Liam, standing outside, noticed the new price through the window. Curious and hopeful, he saw the shopkeeper nod toward the display. Holding his ten-dollar bill tightly, he walked into the store happily. After paying ten dollars, Liam opened the shoe box, finding a card inside. It said “Keep going. You’ll earn your way forward.” A wave of understanding washed over him. He realized the shoes had been made affordable on purpose, and that someone had quietly respected his dignity. His eyes softened, and he felt surprised and grateful. No one stood nearby, yet the boy understood the care behind the action. Holding the card carefully, Liam put on the shoes, feeling stronger and ready to walk confidently into the future. 【解析】 【导语】本文以卖纸巾男孩Liam与善意男士Tom的相遇为线索展开，讲述了家境窘迫、鞋子破旧的Liam攒钱想买新鞋却无力支付，Tom回忆自身相似童年，决定以尊重、不伤害男孩自尊的方式暗中给予帮助的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写Tom私下和店主协商，隐瞒身份将鞋子标价改为10美元，差价由自己补齐，并悄悄在鞋盒放入鼓励便签，随后离开；Liam看到降价惊喜进店。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写Liam读到卡片上温暖的鼓励话语，瞬间明白有人默默维护他的尊严，内心满是感动与感激，穿上新鞋满怀勇气面对往后的生活。 2. 续写线索： Tom目睹Liam望鞋难过——回忆自身童年、决定体面帮扶——私下与店主沟通改价补差价、放置便签——Liam惊喜进店买下鞋子——拆盒发现鼓励卡片——读懂无声善意，重拾自信 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①压低声音说话：lower one’s voice / whisper ②付清余款：pay the rest / settle the balance 情绪类 ①感激的：grateful / appreciative ②充满信心地：confidently / assuredly 【点睛】【高分句型1】He realized the shoes had been made affordable on purpose, and that someone had quietly respected his dignity. (运用了省略that的宾语从句) 【高分句型2】Holding the card carefully, Liam put on the shoes, feeling stronger and ready to walk confidently into the future.

It has the largest population of immigrants on the planet. Over 35% of its residents are born outside the USA. You can hear over 800 languages in New York City being spoken on a daily basis. Which is the most multicultural district in the city? Queens is the largest and also the most ethnically diverse urban area in the world! London London may come in second place behind New York City for the percentage of immigrant population. But it is easily the most diverse city in all of Europe. Bangladeshis, Pakistanis, and Indians are a few of the larger immigrant groups, and a walk around the city will uncover that they have definitely brought their cultures with them. People from around the world are drawn to London and over 30% of its residents are born outside the UK. Singapore This city-state is not just the main financial centre of Southeast Asia, but also one of the most diverse places on the planet. Singapore has four official languages: Mandarin Chinese, English, Malay, and Tamil. It is also a centre for international residents. So, you are sure to meet large communities of permanent residents who are foreign-born. Sydney Following World War II, Sydney saw a huge inflow of immigrants. This trend has continued into the present day, making Sydney one of the most diverse cities in the world. Although English is the official language spoken in Sydney, this city is home to more than 250 languages. Immigrants from places such as Vietnam, India, and South America have made this city their home and brought their cultures with them. You will be spoilt for choice (多得挑花眼) when it comes to Sydney’s cultural diversity! 1. What do New York City and London have in common? A. They are suitable for minorities to earn a living. B. They make it their mission to attract immigrants. C. Over 800 languages are spoken daily in both cities. D. More than 30% of their populations are foreign-born. 2.

Vivian says her love for learning came from her grandmother, a high school biology teacher. “She taught me at a very young age. We’d go to the park and she would make up a game and I wouldn’t even know that I was learning,” she tells the local newspaper Charlottetown Guardian. Vivian hoped for grade-skipping due to her excellence in all subjects. Her parents have been supportive of her drive to seek knowledge. However, the school officials were concerned that she wouldn’t keep up socially with her older classmates if she were to skip more than one grade. Then, she wrote to the newspaper. “Imagine you are playing an exciting video game. You defeat the boss and are ready to move on to the next stage. However, you discover that the game requires you to wait until every other player has finished. Imagine the boredom you would experience and the loss of desire to play afterwards,” she wrote in the letter. “In our current educational system, this is how it works. Kids should be allowed to fly when they’re ready.” Vivian moved with her family from PEI to Halifax, and at a private school there, after several tests, teachers placed her in Grade 8 from fourth grade. After a brief high school career in British Columbia, she returned to PEI to attend university, where she hoped to gain the skills to become a veterinarian (兽医). Vivian was just 12 when she began her university studies — and is on track to finish a biology degree before she can get behind the wheel of a car. So far, university has been no sweat for Vivian. She finished her first semester with grades above 91 percent. Now, at 13, she has just wrapped her first year at the University of Prince Edward Island. 4. How did Vivian’s grandmother educate her at a young age? A. She led her to study unconsciously. B. She set a good example for her. C. She was supportive of her choices. D. She forced her to learn from childhood. 5. Why did Vivian mention playing a video game in her letter? A. To illustrate an idea. B. To clarify a concept. C. To propose a solution. D. To make an assumption. 6. What was Vivian’s purpose in moving from PEI to Halifax? A. To get her biology degree. B. To study as a veterinarian. C. To skip grades successfully. D. To stick to her hobby freely. 7. What lesson can we learn from Vivian’s story? A. Learning at an early age can be harder. B. School systems should be more flexible. C. Self-acceptance depends on self-pride. D. School education equals home studying. C Using AI to help write a message to a friend is not a good idea — at least if your friend finds out about the use of AI, a new study suggests. Researchers found that people in the study believed that a friend who used AI to write them a message didn’t put in as much effort as a friend who wrote a message themselves. That may be understandable, but the effect goes beyond the message itself, said Bingjie Liu, lead author of the study. “After they get an AI message, our participants (参与者) feel less satisfied with their relationship with their friend and feel more uncertain about where they stand,” Liu said. But to be fair to AI, it wasn’t just the use of technology that turned people off. “People want their partners or friends to make an effort to come up with their own message without help from AI or other people,” Liu said. “People want to know how much you want to invest in your friendship and if they feel you are cutting corners by using AI to help, that’s not good,” Liu explained. Of course, most people won’t tell a friend that they used AI to help write a message, Liu said. But she noted that as ChatGPT becomes more popular, people may start doing a Turing Test in their minds as they read messages from friends and others. Turing Test is sometimes used to refer to people wondering if they can tell whether an action was taken by a computer or a person. “It could be that people will secretly do this Turing Test in their minds, trying to figure out if messages have some AI component (成分),” Liu said. “It may hurt relationships.” The answer is to do your own work in relationships, she said. “Don’t use technology just because it is convenient. Sincerity still matters a lot in relationships.” 8. How did people in the study feel about receiving an AI message from their friend? A. Thankful. B. Surprised. C. Dissatisfied. D. Embarrassed. 9. Why do people prefer that friends write messages themselves instead of using AI? A. AI messages often have many mistakes. B. People believe AI lacks emotional depth. C. Friends who use AI are considered dishonest. D. People want to see the effort invested in the friendship. 10. What’s the purpose of starting a Turing Test according to Liu? A. To judge the level of ChatGPT. B. To see if AI has been used in a message. C. To test the sincerity of an online friend. D. To learn how to communicate with AI. 11. What is Liu’s suggestion? A. Believing in the development of technology. B. Paying attention to real-world friends. C. Being actively honest in relationships. D. Thinking twice before making a convenient choice. D Have you ever wondered what happens to all of the old objects launched into space, such as rockets and satellites? They are called space junk (太空垃圾), and much of it is still out there now. According to NASA, the definition of space junk is “any man-made object in orbit around Earth that no longer serves a useful function”. One large piece of space junk, a disused rocket, hit the dark side of the moon on 4 March. The rocket’s origin is not clear, but scientists know that it was massive — weighing about 3 tons. It must have left a large crater (坑), estimated 10 to 20 metres wide, on the moon’s surface. It won’t be visible right away, but scientists are trying to locate it. “We will find the crater, eventually,” Mark Robinson, lead investigator for NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera, told USA Today. “Depending on its location, it could take as long as 28 days.” What’s significant about this space junk crash is that it draws attention to some of the potential dangers of space junk. First, the accumulation of space junk in Earth’s orbit means that satellites and the International Space Station are at risk. In 2016, tiny space debris (残骸), smaller than a millimetre, caused a tiny chip in the ISS’ window. Imagine the damage that a larger piece of debris could cause. The European Space Agency website states that objects “up to 1 cm in size could disable an instrument or a critical flight system on a satellite” while objects over 10 cm “could shatter a satellite or spacecraft into pieces”. If this sounds terrifying, that’s because it is. Any collision (碰撞) with larger pieces of debris could be especially dangerous for manned spacecraft. In addition to potential damage to spacecraft and satellites, space junk also poses a threat to Earth itself. Crashes can send debris into the atmosphere where it can remain for many decades. Some powerful crashes can even send large debris hurtling (猛冲) towards Earth’s surface where it can affect the local environment. Leftover rocket debris can contain toxic (有毒的) materials that are harmful to plant and animal life. Some people in Siberia have even reported serious health problems after rocket debris landed in their regions in 2012, a local doctor told the BBC. 12. Which of the following can be regarded as space junk? A. An abandoned space station. B. A spacecraft orbiting the moon. C. A crater on the moon’s surface. D. A satellite working in low Earth orbit. 13. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A. Tracking the rocket. B. Locating the crater. C. Cleaning up the space junk. D. Finding out the rocket’s origin. 14. Why does the author mention the damage caused by tiny space debris in 2016? A. To compare the effects of debris of different sizes. B. To prove the space debris problem is getting worse. C. To illustrate the potential dangers of space junk. D. To explain the necessity of removing space junk. 15. What can be inferred about space junk from the last paragraph? A. It’s likely to cause a global environmental crisis. B. It can pose a lasting threat if it remains in the atmosphere. C. It’s impossible to stop it from entering the atmosphere. D. The biggest threat comes from the toxic materials contained in space junk. 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山可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The world where we live is a colorful place with different languages, skin colors, and different cultures. ____16____.

His clothes were simple, and his worn-out shoes had a small hole near the toe. Just then, a smooth, black car stopped near him. A kind-looking man, Tom, rolled down the window and asked, “How much for the tissues, young man?” “One dollar each, sir,” Liam replied politely. “I’ll take them all,” Tom said with a warm smile. He handed Liam a ten-dollar bill and drove away with the tissues. Liam’s eyes widened with joy. “Thank you, sir!” he shouted, holding the money tightly. Feeling excited, Liam decided to buy something he wanted most: a pair of new shoes. The ones he wore were too small and hurt his feet every day. He hurried to a shoe store he had passed many times. Through the big window, he saw a perfect pair of brown shoes. They looked strong and comfortable. But the price tag said $100. Liam stopped. He leaned closer to the glass, staring at the shoes. Tom happened to drive past the store again and noticed Liam standing by the window. He slowed down. From a distance, Tom saw the shopkeeper step out and speak gently to Liam. Then Tom saw the sadness on Liam’s face. Though Liam said nothing, Tom noticed how Liam’s fingers tightened around the ten-dollar bill and how his eyes returned to the brown shoes. At that sight, memories rose uninvited. Tom remembered his own childhood — the days of worn shoes and the shame he once felt when help came in the wrong way. But Tom also remembered one moment clearly: a stranger had helped him, saying only, “Keep going. You’ll earn your way forward.” Standing there, Tom finally understood. The boy did not need pity but the same respect he himself had once been given. It was at that moment that Tom made up his mind. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡上作答： Para1: Tom entered the shoe store and went straight to the shopkeeper. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Para2: After paying ten dollars, Liam opened the shoe box, finding a card inside. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
