M: Same here! I love the idea, but my body just doesn’t want to do it.
W: You can say that again. Drunk Fist is all about being loose and unstable, like you’re really drunk. But then you have to switch to street dance, which is super controlled.
M: Yeah, I noticed that too. I tried doing the arm swings first, and then I tried to pop my chest like in street dance. But I ended up looking like a robot! But the teacher asked us to practice after class. What should we do?
W: Haha, same here! I think we need to practice the transition more. Maybe start with just one Drunk Fist move and one street dance move, and then slowly put them together.
M: Yeah, let’s try that. And we can use the music to help us. But before that, should we watch the video several times? I’ve recorded that class just now.
W: OK.

Italian cuisine may be one of the most recognized and loved in the world — often imagined as a collection of ancient recipes and local traditions preserved by skillful grandmothers over centuries. But now, a food historian is exposing common myths and false stories, arguing that the Italian cuisine as we know it is barely a few decades old.
Grandi claims in his latest book, Italian Cuisine Doesn’t Exist, the idea that many beloved recipes and products such as cheeses or cured meats have hundreds of years of history is pure fantasy. Most dishes have a shorter history than most people imagine.
Migration is what made Italian cuisine what it is today. In the 19th and 20th Centuries, millions of people left Italy, a poverty-stricken country with limited dietary options, emigrating to South America, North America and European countries. The Italians who landed on New York’s Ellis Island left hunger and misery behind. And it was in the “new world”, Grandi argues, that Italian immigrants found the wealth and ingredients to create the recipes that eventually popularized Italian food worldwide.
However, many Italians are not familiar with this history. They might imagine that their beloved recipes were born in Italy, passed down, unchanged, from generation to generation and eventually exported abroad by Italian migrants.
Pizza is the most famous example of this. Born as a cheap street food in Naples, in the 19th Century it was synonymous with poverty and dirt. It was in America, says Grandi, that pizza became “red”. While fresh tomatoes were among the original toppings, Italian immigrants to the US popularized pizza prepared with tomato sauce, a product that industrialization made easy to access and store. And it was in the US that pizzerias really started to take off. Scholars call this process “the pizza effect”: when a product leaves its place of origin, gets profoundly transformed and then returns to its place of origin to be fully embraced in a completely different form.
24.What does Grandi challenge in his book?
A.The role of Italian chefs. B.The history of Italian cuisine.
C.The recipe for cured meats. D.The process of cheese production.
25.How did Italian immigrants contribute to the spread of Italian cuisine?
A.By running Italian restaurants worldwide.
B.By promoting food industrialization in Italy.
C.By creating new recipes with local ingredients.
D.By preserving ancient recipes through generations.
26.What does the underlined phrase “was synonymous with” in the last paragraph mean?
A.Equaled. B.Removed. C.Caused. D.Exposed.
27.Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?
A.The Migration of Italian Cuisine B.The Origin of the Pizza Effect
C.The Secret of Traditional Recipes D.The Truths Behind Italian Cuisine
【答案】24.B 25.C 26.A 27.D
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了一位食品历史学家揭露了关于意大利美食的常见神话和虚假故事,指出我们所知道的意大利美食只有几十年的历史,并解释了意大利美食的发展历程以及披萨这一经典食物的起源和演变。
24.细节理解题。根据第二段“Grandi claims in his latest book, Italian Cuisine Doesn’t Exist, the idea that many beloved recipes and products such as cheeses or cured meats have hundreds of years of history is pure fantasy. Most dishes have a shorter history than most people imagine.(格兰迪在他的新书《意大利美食并不存在》中声称,许多深受人们喜爱的食谱以及像奶酪或腌肉这类产品拥有数百年历史的这一观点纯属幻想。大多数菜肴的历史比大多数人想象的要短。)”可知,Grandi在他的书中对意大利美食的历史提出了质疑。故选B。
25.细节理解题。根据第三段“And it was in the “new world”, Grandi argues, that Italian immigrants found the wealth and ingredients to create the recipes that eventually popularized Italian food worldwide.(格兰迪认为,正是在‘新大陆’,意大利移民获得了财富和食材,从而创造出了那些最终让意大利美食在全世界得以推广的食谱。)”可知,意大利移民通过使用当地食材创造新食谱来促进意大利美食的传播。故选C。
26.词句猜测题。根据最后一段“Pizza is the most famous example of this. Born as a cheap street food in Naples, in the 19th Century it was synonymous with poverty and dirt.(披萨就是这方面最著名的例子。19 世纪时,披萨诞生于那不勒斯,是一种廉价的街头食品,那时它was synonymous with贫穷与脏乱。)”可知,披萨在19世纪诞生于那不勒斯,是一种廉价的街头食品,结合常识,廉价的街头食品与贫困和肮脏是等同的概念。由此可知,was synonymous with意思是“等同于”,与A选项“Equaled(等同于)”意思一致。故选A。
27.主旨大意题。文章第一段提到“a food historian is exposing common myths and false stories, arguing that the Italian cuisine as we know it is barely a few decades old.(一位食品历史学家正在揭露常见的神话和虚假故事,他认为我们所知道的意大利美食只有几十年的历史。)”,接着下文详细介绍了意大利美食的历史以及披萨这一经典食物的起源和演变,由此可知,本文主要是讲述意大利美食背后的真相,所以选项D“The Truths Behind Italian Cuisine”适合作为本文的标题。故选D。
C
Once dismissed as a mental interference, daydreaming is undergoing a scientific reevaluation. In our productivity-obsessed era, where multitasking reduces attention spans to mere seconds, this once-criticized mental state is now recognized as a vital cognitive process. Groundbreaking studies from leading universities reveal its multifaceted benefits, challenging conventional wisdom about focus and creativity.
Harvard neuroscientists recently demonstrated the mechanics behind this phenomenon. Their 2024 study in Cognitive Psychology had 150 participants complete creative problem-solving tasks. Those practicing structured daydreaming —— guiding thoughts around specific themes like “future inventions” —— outperformed intensely focused peers by 30%. Brain imaging revealed heightened activity in the default mode network (DMN), a neural circuit previously mislabeled as idle during rest. “The DMN acts as a mental workshop,” explains lead researcher Dr. Laura Bennett. “When consciously directed, it connects distant concepts —— like linking childhood memories to workplace challenges —— to spark innovation.”
Another study from Stanford University highlights daydreaming’s role in emotional regulation. In controlled trials, subjects who daydreamed for 10 minutes after high-stress simulations showed 25% lower cortisol levels and improved emotional clarity. “This isn’t escapism,” clarifies psychologist Dr. Emily Carter. “It’s the brain’s self-maintenance mode, converting chaotic emotions into manageable narratives.”
Interestingly, daydreaming also improves long-term memory. A 2023 experiment at the University of Cambridge showed that students who daydreamed during breaks between study sessions retained 20% more information than those who didn’t. “This suggests that daydreaming helps consolidate learning,” notes Dr. James Wilson.
Despite these benefits, experts caution against excessive daydreaming. It is indicated that excessive, undirected daydreaming correlates with a 17% increase in reality-disconnection symptoms among adolescents. “While beneficial in moderation, too much daydreaming can lead to disengagement from reality,” warns Dr. Bennett. Balancing focused work with periods of mindful daydreaming is key to harnessing its full potential.
28.What was the conventional view of daydreaming?
A.A vital cognitive process. B.A distraction of mental focus.
C.A way to improve memory. D.A method to enhance creativity.
29.What can be inferred about the brain’s default mode network (DMN)?
A.It remains inactive during both rest and focused tasks.
B.It only activates during stressful situations to reduce anxiety.
C.It was once considered inactive but now known to link ideas.
D.It primarily strengthens long-term memory through conscious effort.
30.Which outcome is associated with structured daydreaming in the text?
A.Disengagement from reality. B.Decreased long-term memory.
C.Strengthened stress and anxiety. D.Enhanced emotional management.
31.Which real-life situation best matches the research findings on daydreaming?
A.A student avoids all breaks to maintain focus.
B.An artist schedules deliberate “mind-wandering time”.
C.A teacher bans daydreaming in class to ensure discipline.
D.A programmer works 12-hour shifts without mental pauses.
【答案】28.B 29.C 30.D 31.B
【导语】本文是一篇科普说明文,主要讲述了白日梦这一曾被忽视的心理现象正在经历科学重新评估,揭示了其在认知、创造力、情绪调节和记忆巩固方面的多重益处,同时也提醒了过度白日梦的潜在风险。
【详解】28.细节理解题。根据文章第一段中“Once dismissed as a mental interference, daydreaming is undergoing a scientific reevaluation.(曾被斥为精神干扰的白日梦正在经历科学重新评估)”可知,传统观点认为白日梦是分散注意力的行为。故选B。
29.推理判断题。根据文章第二段中“Brain imaging revealed heightened activity in the default mode network (DMN), a neural circuit previously mislabeled as idle during rest.(脑成像显示默认模式网络(DMN)活动增强,这一神经网络曾被认为在休息时处于闲置状态)”可推知,DMN曾被误认为不活跃,但实际具有关联想法的功能。故选C。
30.细节理解题。根据文章第三段中“subjects who daydreamed for 10 minutes after high-stress simulations showed 25% lower cortisol levels and improved emotional clarity.(高压模拟后白日梦10分钟的受试者皮质醇水平降低25%,情绪更清晰)”可知,结构化白日梦有助于情绪管理。故选D。
31.推理判断题。根据文章第二段中“Those practicing structured daydreaming —— guiding thoughts around specific themes like “future inventions” —— outperformed intensely focused peers by 30%.(进行结构化白日梦的参与者——就具体主题,比如“未来发明”来指导思想——比高度专注的同伴表现优30%)”及全文对白日梦益处的描述可推知,艺术家安排“放空时间”最符合研究发现。故选B。
D
Will machines turn on humanity? Will we become slaves for a superior artificial intelligence? While such questions may seem to belong to the field of science fiction, the world-ending potential of AI is becoming an increasingly urgent topic — mostly due to the rapid ongoing development of popular technologies like ChatGPT.
The more extreme concerns around AI involve what’s known as the singularity. In his 2010 paper The Singularity: A Philosophical Analysis, the philosopher David Chalmers describes the singularity as follows: “What happens when machines become more intelligent than humans? One view is that this event will be followed by an explosion to ever-greater levels of intelligence, as each generation of machines creates more intelligent machines in turn. This intelligence explosion is now known as the ‘singularity’.” The main worry is that, if such a singularity event were to occur, we’d no longer have authority over what happens in society.
While influential figures across AI research express real concern about the singularity, however, American philosopher Daniel Dennett doesn’t buy it. As-he puts it, “I am not worried about humanity creating a race of super-intelligent agents, but that does not mean I am not worried. I see other, less dramatic, but much more likely, scenarios in the immediate future that are cause for concern.” He argues that smart technology presents us with more practical threats that have a far higher likelihood of occurring. As Dennett clarifies: “The real danger is not that machines more intelligent than we are will usurp (篡夺) our role as captains of our destinies, but that we will overestimate the comprehension of our latest thinking tools, easily ceding (让渡) authority to them far beyond their competence.”
Take transport. It’s not just aviation and shipping industries that depend on GPS for safe and efficient navigation: how many individuals now turn to their smartphones instead of using a road map? As Dennett summarizes: “Use it or lose it is the rule of thumb cited at this point... how concerned should we be that we are dumbing ourselves down by our growing reliance on intelligent machines?”
32.What makes the future of AI become a hot topic?
A.Advancement of technologies. B.Popularity of science fiction.
C.Humanity of machines. D.Rise of unemployment.
33.Which of the following can best describe “singularity”?
A.It is a fictional design that populates science novels.
B.It is a hypothetical point where machines beat human intelligence.
C.It is a mathematical model that predicts the development of AI.
D.It is a possible situation where intelligence explosion is under control.
34.According to Daniel Dennett, what should we really worry about?
A.The probable occurrence of singularity.
B.Human’s creation of super thinking tools.
C.Machine’s dominance over human beings.
D.Human’s misjudgment of AI’s capabilities.
35.What would be the best title for the text?
A.Super-intelligence: the future trend of AI. B.Overreliance: the real danger of AI.
C.Singularity: the uncontrollable nature of AI. D.Reliability: the wide application of AI.
【答案】32.A 33.B 34.D 35.B
【导语】这是一篇议论文。本文探讨了人工智能的“奇点”概念及其对人类社会的潜在影响,哲学家Daniel Dennett认为人工智能的潜在威胁在于人类高估AI的能力并对其过度依赖。
【详解】32.细节理解题。根据第一段“While such questions may seem to belong to the field of science fiction, the world-ending potential of AI is becoming an increasingly urgent topic — mostly due to the rapid ongoing development of popular technologies like ChatGPT.(虽然这些问题似乎属于科幻小说的范畴,但人工智能终结世界的潜力正成为一个越来越紧迫的话题——这主要是由于ChatGPT等流行技术的快速发展)”可知,AI成为热点是因为技术进步。故选A。
33.细节理解题。根据第二段“One view is that this event will be followed by an explosion to ever-greater levels of intelligence, as each generation of machines creates more intelligent machines in turn. This intelligence explosion is now known as the ‘singularity’.(一种观点认为,随着每一代机器反过来创造出更智能的机器,这一事件将带来智能水平更高的爆炸式增长。这种智能爆炸现在被称为‘奇点’)”可知,奇点是“机器智能超越人类的假设点”。故选B。
34.细节理解题。根据第三段“The real danger is not that machines more intelligent than we are will usurp (篡夺) our role as captains of our destinies, but that we will overestimate the comprehension of our latest thinking tools, easily ceding (让渡) authority to them far beyond their competence.(真正的危险不是比我们更聪明的机器会取代我们主宰自己命运的角色,而是我们会高估自己对最新思维工具的理解能力,轻易地把权力拱手让给它们,远远超出它们的能力)”可知,Dennett认为真正的危险是人类对AI 能力的误判。故选D。
35.主旨大意题。根据第三段“The real danger is not that machines more intelligent than we are will usurp (篡夺) our role as captains of our destinies, but that we will overestimate the comprehension of our latest thinking tools, easily ceding (让渡) authority to them far beyond their competence.(真正的危险不是比我们更聪明的机器会取代我们主宰自己命运的角色,而是我们会高估自己对最新思维工具的理解能力,轻易地把权力拱手让给它们,远远超出它们的能力)”和第四段“Use it or lose it is the rule of thumb cited at this point... how concerned should we be that we are dumbing ourselves down by our growing reliance on intelligent machines?(使用它或失去它是在这一点上引用的经验法则……我们应该多担心由于对智能机器的依赖而使自己变得愚笨呢?)”可知,全文围绕人类对AI的过度依赖及其潜在危险展开,B选项“过度依赖:人工智能的真正危险”最符合文章标题。故选B。
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。
Parenting is a constant balancing act. We want to teach our children important life lessons, while also maintaining harmony at home and avoiding unnecessary conflicts. 36
Recently, my 13-year-old daughter asked me to buy her a $28 phone case. Her old one wasn’t broken or worn out; she was just bored of it. 37 However, saying “no” in moments like this isn’t easy. The request felt small, but I knew there was a bigger lesson to teach. It’s about teaching our children to think critically about their spending. At the same time, we don’t want to come across as overly strict or dismissive of their feelings.
In this case, I realized my daughter’s request wasn’t just about the phone case; it was about her desire for something new, trendy, and exciting. 38 After all, to a 13-year-old, a new phone case might feel like a big deal, a way to express themselves or fit in with their friends. So how do we find the middle ground?
Instead of shutting down the conversation, I used it as an opportunity to talk about wants and needs. I explained that we must prioritize what’s essential over impulse (冲动) purchases. 39 I also acknowledged her feelings. “I get it,” I told her. Sometimes we just want something new because it feels exciting. This softened the conversation and made her more willing to listen. Instead of a flat-out “no”, I suggested a compromise (妥协). I offered her three options: earn it, wait it out or explore alternatives.
40 It was about guiding my daughter toward better decision-making without damaging our relationship.
A.But I didn’t stop there.
B.For me, it was a firm no.
C.That conversation wasn’t just about a phone case.
D.I promoted the habit of saving for things she wanted.
E.It felt important to her, even if it seemed unnecessary to me.
F.This balancing act can be tricky, especially when parenting teens.

57.考查非谓语动词。句意:一进入展览,观众就被游戏中播放的电子音乐和嗡嗡的噪音所吸引,游戏的界面被投影在墙上。本句已有谓语动词,所以mix用非谓语形式,和逻辑主语electronic music之间是被动关系,用过去分词表被动。故填mixed。

65.考查名词。句意:这是对我们人类所面临的资源枯竭和生物多样性净丧失等危机以及通过技术革命逐渐扩大的文明与自然之间的鸿沟的紧急反应。空前是动词,所以空处应填名词作宾语,divide的名词形式是division,不可数。故填division。

67.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。
As the next school’s concert band took their places onstage, the stage lights in the music hall dimmed. a young man, the First Chair violinist (首席小提琴) , called upon each section to play, tuning them with precision and grace. The moment the musical director appeared, a wave of applause filled the air.
The annual High School Music Festival was the highlight of my year. As a music teacher, I never missed a session, always amazed by the extraordinary talents the musical directors inspired in their students. But this year might be my last visit. With age catching up, my desire for retirement was growing stronger.
Honestly, there was always a touch of dissatisfaction and envy in my heart as I watched these school bands, because I had never been able to develop a band to this level. I taught in a small primary school. My students played beginner music, and they were happy when we managed to play from the start all the way to the end of a piece, with all the instruments finishing together. The complexities of full tone, dynamic control, and balance were beyond their abilities.
As the band opened with their first piece, the striking sound of violins, accompanied by the lively notes of pianos, set my heart pounding. Wouldn’t it be great to be the musical director for one of these massive high school bands? I thought as the music transported me. When the last notes rang out, there was a brief silence before thunderous applause erupted. My aging eyes scanned the stage, seeking familiar faces among the performers. But my vision was no longer sharp enough to recognize anyone.
During the tea break, I headed toward the entrance hall. “Miss Jones! ” a young man’s voice cut through the crowd. I recognized the concert uniform he was wearing. It was the very violinist I had been admiring. Puzzled, I searched his face for familiar features. It turned out to be Bradley, a former student of mine who was difficult to forget. Schoolwork had been hard for him, and he had struggled through all his subjects. It was a pleasant surprise to meet him here. We sat down and had a chat.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I remembered the day when he asked to join the school band.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I was still smiling as I made my way back to the music hall.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】范文
I remembered the day when he asked to join the school band. I was initially hesitant, aware of his academic struggles and the complexity of the music we were rehearsing. Yet, the determined gleam in little Bradley’s eyes moved me. I agreed, tailoring parts of the music piece to let him shine without being overwhelmed. “It was you who set me on the music path,” Bradley spoke with gratitude. He then recounted his musical journey with the violin, from junior to senior high school, ultimately landing the lead role of First Chair in his school’s concert band. I listened attentively, amazed at the transformative power of music. As he returned to his band, a proud smile spread across my face.
I was still smiling as I made my way back to the music hall. As I took my seat, my heart swelled with quiet pride in knowing the role I had played in a young man’s music journey. The lights dimmed again, and the stage came alive with the energy of young musicians. They began to play, each note resonating with the memory of the first tentative sounds my students had made under my guidance. As the final piece began, I closed my eyes, letting the music wash over me. The music hall, once a place of my longing and unfulfilled dreams, now echoed with a life well-spent in the service of art and education.

Italian cuisine may be one of the most recognized and loved in the world — often imagined as a collection of ancient recipes and local traditions preserved by skillful grandmothers over centuries. But now, a food historian is exposing common myths and false stories, arguing that the Italian cuisine as we know it is barely a few decades old.
Grandi claims in his latest book, Italian Cuisine Doesn’t Exist, the idea that many beloved recipes and products such as cheeses or cured meats have hundreds of years of history is pure fantasy. Most dishes have a shorter history than most people imagine.
Migration is what made Italian cuisine what it is today. In the 19th and 20th Centuries, millions of people left Italy, a poverty-stricken country with limited dietary options, emigrating to South America, North America and European countries. The Italians who landed on New York’s Ellis Island left hunger and misery behind. And it was in the “new world”, Grandi argues, that Italian immigrants found the wealth and ingredients to create the recipes that eventually popularized Italian food worldwide.
However, many Italians are not familiar with this history. They might imagine that their beloved recipes were born in Italy, passed down, unchanged, from generation to generation and eventually exported abroad by Italian migrants.
Pizza is the most famous example of this. Born as a cheap street food in Naples, in the 19th Century it was synonymous with poverty and dirt. It was in America, says Grandi, that pizza became “red”. While fresh tomatoes were among the original toppings, Italian immigrants to the US popularized pizza prepared with tomato sauce, a product that industrialization made easy to access and store. And it was in the US that pizzerias really started to take off. Scholars call this process “the pizza effect”: when a product leaves its place of origin, gets profoundly transformed and then returns to its place of origin to be fully embraced in a completely different form.
24.What does Grandi challenge in his book?
A.The role of Italian chefs. B.The history of Italian cuisine.
C.The recipe for cured meats. D.The process of cheese production.
25.How did Italian immigrants contribute to the spread of Italian cuisine?
A.By running Italian restaurants worldwide.
B.By promoting food industrialization in Italy.
C.By creating new recipes with local ingredients.
D.By preserving ancient recipes through generations.
26.What does the underlined phrase “was synonymous with” in the last paragraph mean?
A.Equaled. B.Removed. C.Caused. D.Exposed.
27.Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?
A.The Migration of Italian Cuisine B.The Origin of the Pizza Effect
C.The Secret of Traditional Recipes D.The Truths Behind Italian Cuisine
C
Once dismissed as a mental interference, daydreaming is undergoing a scientific reevaluation. In our productivity-obsessed era, where multitasking reduces attention spans to mere seconds, this once-criticized mental state is now recognized as a vital cognitive process. Groundbreaking studies from leading universities reveal its multifaceted benefits, challenging conventional wisdom about focus and creativity.
Harvard neuroscientists recently demonstrated the mechanics behind this phenomenon. Their 2024 study in Cognitive Psychology had 150 participants complete creative problem-solving tasks. Those practicing structured daydreaming —— guiding thoughts around specific themes like “future inventions” —— outperformed intensely focused peers by 30%. Brain imaging revealed heightened activity in the default mode network (DMN), a neural circuit previously mislabeled as idle during rest. “The DMN acts as a mental workshop,” explains lead researcher Dr. Laura Bennett. “When consciously directed, it connects distant concepts —— like linking childhood memories to workplace challenges —— to spark innovation.”
Another study from Stanford University highlights daydreaming’s role in emotional regulation. In controlled trials, subjects who daydreamed for 10 minutes after high-stress simulations showed 25% lower cortisol levels and improved emotional clarity. “This isn’t escapism,” clarifies psychologist Dr. Emily Carter. “It’s the brain’s self-maintenance mode, converting chaotic emotions into manageable narratives.”
Interestingly, daydreaming also improves long-term memory. A 2023 experiment at the University of Cambridge showed that students who daydreamed during breaks between study sessions retained 20% more information than those who didn’t. “This suggests that daydreaming helps consolidate learning,” notes Dr. James Wilson.
Despite these benefits, experts caution against excessive daydreaming. It is indicated that excessive, undirected daydreaming correlates with a 17% increase in reality-disconnection symptoms among adolescents. “While beneficial in moderation, too much daydreaming can lead to disengagement from reality,” warns Dr. Bennett. Balancing focused work with periods of mindful daydreaming is key to harnessing its full potential.
28.What was the conventional view of daydreaming?
A.A vital cognitive process. B.A distraction of mental focus.
C.A way to improve memory. D.A method to enhance creativity.
29.What can be inferred about the brain’s default mode network (DMN)?
A.It remains inactive during both rest and focused tasks.
B.It only activates during stressful situations to reduce anxiety.
C.It was once considered inactive but now known to link ideas.
D.It primarily strengthens long-term memory through conscious effort.
30.Which outcome is associated with structured daydreaming in the text?
A.Disengagement from reality. B.Decreased long-term memory.
C.Strengthened stress and anxiety. D.Enhanced emotional management.
31.Which real-life situation best matches the research findings on daydreaming?
A.A student avoids all breaks to maintain focus.
B.An artist schedules deliberate “mind-wandering time”.
C.A teacher bans daydreaming in class to ensure discipline.
D.A programmer works 12-hour shifts without mental pauses.
D
Will machines turn on humanity? Will we become slaves for a superior artificial intelligence? While such questions may seem to belong to the field of science fiction, the world-ending potential of AI is becoming an increasingly urgent topic — mostly due to the rapid ongoing development of popular technologies like ChatGPT.
The more extreme concerns around AI involve what’s known as the singularity. In his 2010 paper The Singularity: A Philosophical Analysis, the philosopher David Chalmers describes the singularity as follows: “What happens when machines become more intelligent than humans? One view is that this event will be followed by an explosion to ever-greater levels of intelligence, as each generation of machines creates more intelligent machines in turn. This intelligence explosion is now known as the ‘singularity’.” The main worry is that, if such a singularity event were to occur, we’d no longer have authority over what happens in society.
While influential figures across AI research express real concern about the singularity, however, American philosopher Daniel Dennett doesn’t buy it. As-he puts it, “I am not worried about humanity creating a race of super-intelligent agents, but that does not mean I am not worried. I see other, less dramatic, but much more likely, scenarios in the immediate future that are cause for concern.” He argues that smart technology presents us with more practical threats that have a far higher likelihood of occurring. As Dennett clarifies: “The real danger is not that machines more intelligent than we are will usurp (篡夺) our role as captains of our destinies, but that we will overestimate the comprehension of our latest thinking tools, easily ceding (让渡) authority to them far beyond their competence.”
Take transport. It’s not just aviation and shipping industries that depend on GPS for safe and efficient navigation: how many individuals now turn to their smartphones instead of using a road map? As Dennett summarizes: “Use it or lose it is the rule of thumb cited at this point... how concerned should we be that we are dumbing ourselves down by our growing reliance on intelligent machines?”
32.What makes the future of AI become a hot topic?
A.Advancement of technologies. B.Popularity of science fiction.
C.Humanity of machines. D.Rise of unemployment.
33.Which of the following can best describe “singularity”?
A.It is a fictional design that populates science novels.
B.It is a hypothetical point where machines beat human intelligence.
C.It is a mathematical model that predicts the development of AI.
D.It is a possible situation where intelligence explosion is under control.
34.According to Daniel Dennett, what should we really worry about?
A.The probable occurrence of singularity.
B.Human’s creation of super thinking tools.
C.Machine’s dominance over human beings.
D.Human’s misjudgment of AI’s capabilities.
35.What would be the best title for the text?
A.Super-intelligence: the future trend of AI. B.Overreliance: the real danger of AI.
C.Singularity: the uncontrollable nature of AI. D.Reliability: the wide application of AI.

Parenting is a constant balancing act. We want to teach our children important life lessons, while also maintaining harmony at home and avoiding unnecessary conflicts. 36
Recently, my 13-year-old daughter asked me to buy her a $28 phone case. Her old one wasn’t broken or worn out; she was just bored of it. 37 However, saying “no” in moments like this isn’t easy. The request felt small, but I knew there was a bigger lesson to teach. It’s about teaching our children to think critically about their spending. At the same time, we don’t want to come across as overly strict or dismissive of their feelings.
In this case, I realized my daughter’s request wasn’t just about the phone case; it was about her desire for something new, trendy, and exciting. 38 After all, to a 13-year-old, a new phone case might feel like a big deal, a way to express themselves or fit in with their friends. So how do we find the middle ground?
Instead of shutting down the conversation, I used it as an opportunity to talk about wants and needs. I explained that we must prioritize what’s essential over impulse (冲动) purchases. 39 I also acknowledged her feelings. “I get it,” I told her. Sometimes we just want something new because it feels exciting. This softened the conversation and made her more willing to listen. Instead of a flat-out “no”, I suggested a compromise (妥协). I offered her three options: earn it, wait it out or explore alternatives.
40 It was about guiding my daughter toward better decision-making without damaging our relationship.
A.But I didn’t stop there.
B.For me, it was a firm no.
C.That conversation wasn’t just about a phone case.
D.I promoted the habit of saving for things she wanted.
E.It felt important to her, even if it seemed unnecessary to me.
F.This balancing act can be tricky, especially when parenting teens.
G.Sometimes, the most valuable lessons aren’t about the money at all.

The side door of the aircraft was opened, and a brisk wind rushed in. Packed tightly like sardines were fourteen silent people. Two of them were my adult children, 41 out at the endless sky.

67.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。
As the next school’s concert band took their places onstage, the stage lights in the music hall dimmed. a young man, the First Chair violinist (首席小提琴) , called upon each section to play, tuning them with precision and grace. The moment the musical director appeared, a wave of applause filled the air.
The annual High School Music Festival was the highlight of my year. As a music teacher, I never missed a session, always amazed by the extraordinary talents the musical directors inspired in their students. But this year might be my last visit. With age catching up, my desire for retirement was growing stronger.
Honestly, there was always a touch of dissatisfaction and envy in my heart as I watched these school bands, because I had never been able to develop a band to this level. I taught in a small primary school. My students played beginner music, and they were happy when we managed to play from the start all the way to the end of a piece, with all the instruments finishing together. The complexities of full tone, dynamic control, and balance were beyond their abilities.
As the band opened with their first piece, the striking sound of violins, accompanied by the lively notes of pianos, set my heart pounding. Wouldn’t it be great to be the musical director for one of these massive high school bands? I thought as the music transported me. When the last notes rang out, there was a brief silence before thunderous applause erupted. My aging eyes scanned the stage, seeking familiar faces among the performers. But my vision was no longer sharp enough to recognize anyone.
During the tea break, I headed toward the entrance hall. “Miss Jones! ” a young man’s voice cut through the crowd. I recognized the concert uniform he was wearing. It was the very violinist I had been admiring. Puzzled, I searched his face for familiar features. It turned out to be Bradley, a former student of mine who was difficult to forget. Schoolwork had been hard for him, and he had struggled through all his subjects. It was a pleasant surprise to meet him here. We sat down and had a chat.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I remembered the day when he asked to join the school band.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I was still smiling as I made my way back to the music hall.
