I was heartbroken.Maybe the position had already been filled;maybe they'd discovered I was a woman.My friend Steve then proposed an idea that at first seemed crazy:learning to fly aero planes."Flying is for men,"I laughed at the idea.But gradually, I realized the suggestion had stuck with me. Years ago,trial flights-brief introductory sessions with an instructorcost just 5 for 15 minutes in the air.Steve and I both signed up,and after my first session,I couldn't stop talking about flying.I got my license and headed for the US to work as a pilot.It wasn't easy.Initially,people were doubtful about a woman working in the role, but I ended up outperforming my male colleagues.Twenty years later,I returned to England and started my own flying company. Now,I live a quieter life.I've settled in a village in Lincolnshire,spending much of my time volunteering in care homes.Last October,after nearly fifty years and countless adventures,I received a letter from a post office in Staines.It was my trick rider application. The post office apologized for the delay and explained it had been found stuck behind a drawer in the office-the company never received it. Looking back,I realized that even though I didn't get that job,it led me to a series of adventures that shaped my life in unexpected and fulfilling ways. 24.What did winning the jumping competition bring to the writer? A.The faith in friendship. B.The acquisition of a new skill. C.The recognition of mother's love. D.The determination to go adventuring. 25.How did the writer feel at first when Steve suggested learning to fly? A.Curious. B.Inspired. C.Desperate. D.Doubtful. 26.Why did the writer fail to receive any reply about the trick ride position? A.Because she forgot to sign the application. B.Because her application was not delivered. C.Because women were unfit for the position. D.Because the position had already been filled. 27.What can we learn from this passage? A.Smart plans make big dreams. B.Doubt kills more goals than failure. C.The best journeys are not mapped. D.Strong women create strong societies. 高三英语 第4页（共10页） C Standing in Nevada's dry landscape,Project Red uses new methods to capture geothermal (energy.Unlike old plants that need natural hot water storage areas near volcanoes,this facility uses Enhanced Geothermal Systems(EGS)to get heat from solid rock.Workers start by drilling two wells over 8,000 feet deep into rock hot enough to roast a turkey.Through the first well,high-pressure water is pumped down,breaking the rock to create paths.A key procedure involves drilling another 3,250-foot horizontal well to expand the area of hot rock that the system contacts-a technique used in oil and gas industry in order to maximize yield. Water moves through these man-made cracks for 24-48 hours,gathering heat until temperatures exceed 380F.As heated water rises through the second well,pressure changes near the surface turn about 20%into steam.This steam powers machines connected to generators,creating clean electricity.Then the steam cools and condenses (back into hot water,which is used to heat a different kind of liquid with a much lower boiling point,such as butane,to drive a second generator before it is transported back to the system. This progress eliminates geothermal's old obstacle of needing volcanic zones. Traditional plants simply collect steam from natural hot springs,while EGS establishes water storage in unreachable ground.Another feature of the system is that they can be made more profitable by taking advantage of energy price shifts.Operators could plug the exit wells,causing water to accumulate inside the system,building up pressure and heat. Then the energy could be extracted during times when it is most valuable-such as during cloudy or windless periods when solar power or wind isn't working. Some oil and gas companies,recognizing that the energy landscape is changing,are increasingly interested in building geothermal systems.There's even a growing push to use direct geothermal heat to warm buildings,either through shallow heat pumps for residential buildings or integrated systems designed for entire districts-as Paris and Munich already do. 28.What is the main purpose of creating the second well? A.To speed up rock breaking. B.To improve the efficiency of heat transfer. C.To reduce drilling difficulty. D.To regulate the pressure inside the wells. 29.What does the underlined word"it"in paragraph 2 refer to? A.Butane. B.Electricity. C.Water. D.Steam. 30.What can we infer from paragraph 3? A.EGS depends on specific ground types. B.Traditional plants will be replaced by EGS. C.Geothermal energy is a stable power source. D.EGS is more advanced than solar energy and wind. 31.What key development is mentioned in the last paragraph? A.Geothermal energy changing the landscape B.Traditional energy losing competitiveness. C.Energy companies abandoning fossil fuel. D.Geothermal energy expanding applications. 高三英语第5页（共10页） D People's views are becoming increasingly polarized,with social bubbles ( deepening existing beliefs and widening opinion gaps.This polarization doesn't just apply to political opinions;it also touches on factual topics,from climate change to disease prevention.According to a recent study,people use search engines in ways that confirm their existing beliefs,potentially expanding polarization.A simple adjustment to search algorithms ()the researchers propose,could help deliver a broader range of perspectives. Online participants were asked to rate their beliefs on six topics,such as nuclear energy and the health effects of caffeine ()They then chose search terms to learn more about each topic.The researchers rated the terms'scope (and found that between 9 and 34 percent were "narrow".For example,when researching the health effects of caffeine,one participant used "caffeine negative effects"while others used "benefits of caffeine".These narrow terms tended to match participants'existing beliefs, and generally fewer than 10 percent did this knowingly. "Search algorithms are designed to give the most relevant answers for whatever we type,which ends up strengthening what we already thought,"says Eugina Leung from Tulane University,who led the study.Similar results appeared when participants used ChatGPT.When researchers randomly assigned participants to view different results, they found that the results affected people's opinions and even behavior.For example, participants who saw results about“caffeine health benefits”,rather than“risks”,were more likely to choose a caffeinated drink afterward. Pointing out biases in the search terms had only a small effect on people's final opinions.However,changing the search algorithm to provide broader results helped reduce the effects of narrow searches."People are able to bring in different perspectives when they're exposed to them,which is encouraging,"Leung says.The researchers recommend applying such strategies,possibly as "search broadly"buttons."This would be really helpful,"Leung says,but whether it will ever happen"is hard to predict." 32.What phenomenon does the author point out in paragraph 1? A.Search engines create social bubbles. B.Public debates on factual topics become heated. C.Search habits are unknowingly expanding opinion gaps. D.Opinions are increasingly divided on political issues. 33.What is the feature of "narrow"search terms? A.They involve broader ideas. B.They follow social trends. C.They match popular beliefs. D.They strengthen established views. 34.What can we learn from the example given in paragraph 3? A.Caffeine benefits people's health. B.ChatGPT provides objective information. C.Search results may influence users'choices. D.Online searches reflect personal interests. 35.What is the researchers'suggestion about? A.Approaches to broadening search results. B.Choice of new research methods. C.Techniques for identifying search biases. D.Necessity-to involve more participants. 高三英语第6页（共10页） 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入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有 两项为多余选项。 Education isn't simply about achieving a "higher state of knowledge";it's about equipping students with the tools they need to go out into the world and shape it for themselves.Here is a list of how education could improve the world. 36.

Both examples suggested that there must be a middle way.So I came up with one. On the first day of class,I struck a friendly but purposeful tone,telling my students,"If I catch you looking at your phone during the class discussion,you must call your parents right then and there on speakerphone and tell them that you love them."I delivered this with a twinkle in my eye,and my students chuckled good-naturedly.Then I followed up with my end of the bargain:"This means whenever you speak to me,I promise to give you my full attention."
