Where: Meet at the top of the main staircase, just behind the Fort Mason General's Residence. East Black Point, a quiet and all but forgotten spot, ignored for decades, and hidden away from the busy San Francisco waterfront. Located within Fort Mason, the site was expanded with gardens and pathways in the 1850s by early San Francisco residents. Sheltered from the wind and offering striking views of the bay and city, the hillside was a favored place for the community to garden and take a walk. With volunteer support, the beautiful garden pathways have been unearthed, the site brought back to life, and Black Point is now open to the public. Join us in taking care of this special place! We still have a lot of work to do to make this special space feel like a garden again. Volunteers will help to remove invasive (侵入的) species that have taken over the site and plant new vegetation in the garden with a mix of native species and garden species that were planted by the residents over 100 years ago! Activities primarily include weeding, cutting back overgrown plants, and planting. Age, Skills, What to Bring: Volunteers aged 15 and up are welcome. We'll be working rain or shine. Wear clothes that can get dirty. Long pants and closed-toe shoes are required. Bring layers for changing weather and rain wear if necessary. Bring a personal water bottle and sunscreen. No experience necessary. Training and tools will be provided. It can help meet community service requirements. 1. What can we learn about Black Point from the text? A. It fell out of use during the 1850s. B. It has been well tended for decades. C. It is a windy spot with no view of the bay. D. It comes alive thanks to volunteers' efforts. 2. What is the main task of the volunteers in the project? A. Introducing the park's history to visitors B. Restoring the garden's original vegetation. C. Distinguishing invasive and native species D. Cleaning up the pathways of East Black Point. 3. What is required for joining the volunteer activity? A. Having a parent's company if under 15. B. Packing suitable clothing and footwear. C. Bringing some professional gardening tools. D. Having enough community service experiences. 【答案】1. D 2. B 3. B 【解析】 【导语】主要介绍古堡花园志愿者的招募信息、工作内容以及参与的相关要求。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Where句的下面第一段中的“With volunteer support, the beautiful garden pathways have been unearthed, the site brought back to life, and Black Point is now open to the public. (在志愿者的帮助之下，漂亮的花园小径被发掘出来，此地重获生机，布莱克角如今已经向公众开放。)”可知，依靠志愿者的付出此地重新焕发生机。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Where句的下面第二段中的“Volunteers will help to remove invasive (侵入的) species that have taken over the site and plant new vegetation in the garden with a mix of native species and garden species that were planted by the residents over 100 years ago! (志愿者需要清除霸占这片土地的入侵物种，在花园栽种新植被，包含本土植物以及百年前当地居民栽种过的园艺品种。)”可知，志愿者核心工作就是清理外来入侵植物、栽种旧时原有植被，修复花园原生植物环境。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“We'll be working rain or shine. Wear clothes that can get dirty. Long pants and closed‑toe shoes are required. (无论晴雨活动照常开展。穿戴不怕弄脏的衣物，必须穿上长裤与闭趾鞋。)”可知，参加这项志愿者活动需要备好合适的衣物与鞋履。 B In her late 50s, Pat Gentile was identified with breast cancer. During cancer treatment, she lost all her hair, so she began to wear a wig. “But that wig — and I only had one wig — was uncomfortable, and it was annoying,” Gentile said. “So when I sort of had a crew cut look (平头发型), I decided that it was time to give the wig up.” The first time she was driving to work without the wig, Gentile felt exposed. As the head of a local college and a frequent spokesperson, she worried about how people would respond. “I didn’t want to get the ‘pity eyes’ that people give you when you’re sick,” Gentile said. “I wanted to just keep moving.” She stopped at a convenience store to pick up some coffee and lunch. As she shopped through the passage, a woman approached her. Fifteen years later, Gentile still remembers what the woman said. “Not everybody could wear a hairstyle like that. You look fantastic.” Gentile was amazed. She managed to say, “Thank you,” before the woman walked away. Then she went back to her car, letting the words settle. “I sat there for a while, sort of treasuring this wonderful, kind thing that this person had said to me,” Gentile said. “And it really made a turning point for me that made me feel seen, made me feel normal and gave me the courage to get to work and just get started.” Gentile donated the wig and never looked back. She completed the cancer treatment and has had no evidence of cancer since 2011. Thinking back to that encounter, she credits the woman’s kindness as a turning point. She says it inspires her to see other people the way that stranger saw her and to acknowledge what they might be going through. “I think about this woman a lot. I’m kinder because of her. So I’m very grateful.” 4. Why did Gentile decide to stop wearing the wig? A. It was out of fashion. B. It affected her public image. C. It failed to cover her hair loss. D. It brought her physical discomfort. 5. What can we learn about Gentile from paragraph 3? A. She hated to drive without the wig. B. She was anxious about her health state. C. She was unwilling to be treated differently. D. She feared losing her professional position. 6. What happened to Gentile after she met the woman? A. She pretended to be stronger. B. She recognized her own value. C. She accepted herself confidently. D. She got sensitive to others’ comments. 7. What message does the author convey in the text? A. Suffering can shape strong personality. B. A kind word can change a person greatly. C. Courage is the key to overcoming disease. D. Appreciation contributes to true friendship. 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. C 7. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了Pat Gentile在癌症治疗期间因陌生人一句善意鼓励而重获自信的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“But that wig — and I only had one wig — was uncomfortable, and it was annoying. (但那顶假发——我只有一顶——戴着不舒服，而且很烦人。)”可知，Gentile决定不再戴假发是因为假发戴着不舒服，给她带来了身体上的不适。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“As the head of a local college and a frequent spokesperson, she worried about how people would respond. “I didn’t want to get the ‘pity eyes’ that people give you when you’re sick,” Gentile said. (作为当地一所学院的院长，同时也是经常出镜的发言人，她担心人们会作何反应。“我不想得到人们在你生病时投来的那种‘同情的眼神’，”Gentile说。)”可知，Gentile不希望因为生病而被别人投以同情的目光，即她不愿意被区别对待。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中“And it really made a turning point for me that made me feel seen, made me feel normal and gave me the courage to get to work and just get started. (这真的成为了我的一个转折点，让我感到被看见，让我觉得自己很正常，给了我去上班、重新开始的勇气。)”以及第六段中“Gentile donated the wig and never looked back. (Gentile把假发捐了出去，再也没有回头。)”可知，遇到那位女士后，Gentile感到被认可、正常，并给了她勇气，自信地接受了自己的样子。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。全文讲述了Gentile因癌症脱发后自卑不安，一位陌生女士的一句善意赞美成为了她人生的转折点，让她重拾自信，并且这份善意也激励她去善待他人。文章最后一段中“I’m kinder because of her. So I’m very grateful. (因为她，我变得更善良了。所以我非常感激。)”点明了善意的传递与影响。B选项“一句善意的话可以极大地改变一个人”准确概括了文章主旨。 C At Cygnus School in the Netherlands, the school day is now phone-free. “Before, everyone glanced at their phones constantly,” says teacher Ms Peters. “Now it’s calmer.” Students no longer fear being photographed and posted on social media platforms during breaks. “When kids are more relaxed, they learn better,” she adds. Early data backs up her impressions. A study of 317 high schools found 75% reported better concentration after phone bans, and 66% saw improved social atmospheres. Other surveys show less bullying without phones. Fifteen-year-old Karel and Felix used to keep their phones by the bed and read messages immediately upon waking. Both initially wanted to transfer schools. Yet they adapted. “I haven’t really felt a problem,” Karel adds, “I’d get used to it and find other things to do.” Felix now notices deeper changes: “People talk more, go to shops instead of sitting on phones. Connections are better.” In the Netherlands, the debate has already moved onto social media. The Dutch government officially proposes that children under 15 should stay off social media, and wants a Europe-wide ban for this age group. They argue that if states can restrict alcohol, they should also act when platforms are addictive. Public opinion is shifting in their favour. A Unicef survey found 69% of Dutch children now support a social media ban for under-18s. Among people aged 16 to 18, support for age limits rose from 44% to 60% in one year. Former education minister Koen Becking explains: “Heavy social media use harms mental health and social skills. Kids are more distracted and anxious with devices.” At the same time, the Dutch Research Council is now examining the unintended consequences of the smartphone ban, and whether being without a phone all day increases fear of missing out and causes more intensive phone use after school. The pupils all insist they do not overuse phones before and after school. For Dutch students, phone-free school life is becoming normal. The next question for the Netherlands is whether access to the social media apps should be “a thing of the past” too. 8. What does the first paragraph focus on? A. The students’ phone addiction. B. The debate on school phone use. C. The benefits of the no-phone policy. D. The improvement in teaching methods. 9. What do Felix and Karel’s experiences show? A. Students tend to oppose new rules. B. Age can affect adaptation to phone bans. C. Views on phone bans may change over time. D. Phone bans fail to change students’ behavior. 10. What is Koen Becking’s opinion? A. He doubts the ban’s real effect. B. He rejects Unicef’s survey result. C. He backs the government’s proposal. D. He hopes for more data about teen health. 11. What may the Netherlands consider next according to the last paragraph? A. Lifting the smartphone ban in schools. B. Banning social media access for students. C. Limiting students’ after-school phone use. D. Stopping the ongoing research on the ban. 【答案】8. C 9. C 10. C 11. B 【解析】 【导语】这篇文章主要介绍了荷兰学校推行校内禁手机政策成效显著，民众愈发支持限制未成年人使用社交媒体；相关机构也在研究禁令潜在弊端，该国还计划进一步管控青少年社交软件使用。 【8题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“At Cygnus School in the Netherlands, the school day is now phone-free. “Before, everyone glanced at their phones constantly,” says teacher Ms Peters. “Now it’s calmer.” Students no longer fear being photographed and posted on social media platforms during breaks. “When kids are more relaxed, they learn better,” she adds.(在荷兰的西格纳斯学校，如今的校园生活已不再使用手机。教师彼得斯女士表示：“以前，每个人都在不停地看手机，现在情况变得安静多了。”学生们也不再担心课间被拍照并发布到社交媒体上。“当孩子们更放松时，他们的学习效果也更好，”她补充道。)”可知，第一段通过老师的描述，对比了手机禁令前后校园的变化：从人人频繁刷手机，变为氛围更平静、学生不再担心被偷拍发社交平台、状态更放松且学习效果更好，核心是在介绍无手机政策带来的诸多好处。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Early data backs up her impressions. A study of 317 high schools found 75% reported better concentration after phone bans, and 66% saw improved social atmospheres. Other surveys show less bullying without phones. Fifteen-year-old Karel and Felix used to keep their phones by the bed and read messages immediately upon waking. Both initially wanted to transfer schools. Yet they adapted. “I haven’t really felt a problem,” Karel adds, “I’d get used to it and find other things to do.” Felix now notices deeper changes: “People talk more, go to shops instead of sitting on phones. Connections are better.”(初步数据支持了她的印象。一项针对317所高中的研究发现，75%的学校表示禁用手机后学生注意力有所提升，66%的学校称校园社交氛围有所改善。其他调查还显示，没有手机的情况下欺凌行为减少了。15岁的卡雷尔和费利克斯过去总是把手机放在床边，醒来后立刻查看消息。他们最初都希望转学，但最终适应了（禁手机的规定）。“我其实并没有觉得有什么问题，”卡雷尔说，“我会逐渐习惯，并找到其他事情做。”费利克斯现在注意到更深刻的变化：“人们说话更多了，去逛商店而不是抱着手机玩。人际关系也变得更亲密。”)”可推知，费利克斯和卡雷尔的经历说明了对手机禁令的看法可能会随着时间改变。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“A Unicef survey found 69% of Dutch children now support a social media ban for under-18s. Among people aged 16 to 18, support for age limits rose from 44% to 60% in one year. Former education minister Koen Becking explains: “Heavy social media use harms mental health and social skills. Kids are more distracted and anxious with devices.”(联合国儿童基金会的一项调查显示，目前69%的荷兰儿童支持禁止18岁以下人群使用社交媒体。在16至18岁年龄段中，一年内支持年龄限制的比例从44%上升到了60%。前教育部长科恩·贝金解释说：“过度使用社交媒体会损害心理健康和社交能力。孩子们在使用电子设备时更容易分心和焦虑。”)”可推知，科恩·贝金的观点是他支持政府的提议。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“For Dutch students, phone-free school life is becoming normal. The next question for the Netherlands is whether access to the social media apps should be “a thing of the past” too.(对荷兰学生而言，无手机的校园生活正变得成为常态。接下来的问题是，荷兰是否也应让社交媒体应用的使用成为“过去的事”。)”可推知，根据最后一段，荷兰接下来可能会考虑禁止学生使用社交媒体。 D A human brain consumes less power than a light bulb (电灯泡), while artificial intelligence systems use up much more electricity to do the same tasks. Now, scientists have created a highly efficient AI model that indicates how living brains are able to do so much with so little, a team reports in the journal Nature. The model was designed to copy part of the brain’s visual function. It originally had 60 million variables (参数), but researchers cut it down to a smaller version with just 10,000 variables while keeping almost the same performance. Besides, this compact model works more similarly to real brains, which may help scientists study brain diseases such as Alzheimer’s. Traditional AI can do similar work but needs powerful computers. Different from them, the team aimed to create a simpler and more energy-saving model. They trained the new model using data collected from monkeys and removed useless parts with common data reduction methods. Finally, they got a highly streamlined AI system. This understandable model simulates the visual cells called V4 cells. This research also helps experts explore how the human brain operates. Many scientists have long tried to figure out how people recognize daily things like cats or dogs. Since it is hard to observe human brains directly while they work, researchers turn to AI for help. However, people still know little about how most complex AI systems run. The new model offers a clearer window into this process. By studying this simple model, scientists found different roles of V4 cells: sensing colors, shapes and other visual details. Some react to rounded shapes like fruits in supermarkets, while others notice small spots in pictures, which explains why monkeys and humans easily notice eyes. The findings suggest that future AI can be made simpler and smaller without losing ability. However, the model also reveals gaps between AI and human cognition. Even so, AI still has a long way to go. Unlike humans who can recognize faces in different situations easily, present AI struggles with such tasks. Experts point out that today’s AI is built on old knowledge about the human brain, so people need to update the basic design of AI systems based on new brain research. 12. What is a feature of the compact model mentioned in paragraph 2? A. Fast to construct. B. Cheap to produce. C. Low in energy use. D. Easy to carry around. 13. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The process of building the model. B. The way V4 cells deal with visual data. C. The differences between two AI systems. D. The challenges of training the new model. 14. What can we learn about V4 cells from the text? A. They help with object recognition. B. They are unique to monkey brains. C. They detect the movements of objects. D. They consume more energy than other cells. 15. What is suggested about future AI in the last paragraph? A. It should center on face recognition. B. It should keep pace with brain research. C. It should be built on what has been known. D. It should imitate the human brain structure. 【答案】12. C 13. A 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍科学家研发出低能耗类脑高效AI模型，助力探索人脑运行机制并优化未来AI设计。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Now, scientists have created a highly efficient AI model that indicates how living brains are able to do so much with so little, a team reports in the journal Nature.(如今，一个研究团队在《自然》期刊上报道，科学家已经研发出一款高效的人工智能模型，该模型揭示了生物大脑如何以极低的消耗完成如此多的工作。)”和第三段“Different from them, the team aimed to create a simpler and more energy-saving model.(与它们不同，该研究团队旨在打造一个更简易、更节能的模型。)”可知，第二段提到的精简模型的一个特点是耗能低。 【13题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“Traditional AI can do similar work but needs powerful computers. Different from them, the team aimed to create a simpler and more energy-saving model. They trained the new model using data collected from monkeys and removed useless parts with common data reduction methods. Finally, they got a highly streamlined AI system.(传统人工智能可以完成类似的工作，但需要性能强大的计算机。与这类人工智能不同，该研究团队致力于打造更简易、更节能的模型。他们利用取自猴子身上的数据训练这个新模型，并使用通用的数据缩减方法剔除无用的组件。最终，他们得到了一套高度精简的人工智能系统。)”可知，第三段依次介绍了模型的研发目标、用猴子数据训练、通过数据约简剔除冗余部分，最终得到高度精简的AI系统，完整覆盖模型搭建的全流程。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“By studying this simple model, scientists found different roles of V4 cells: sensing colors, shapes and other visual details. Some react to rounded shapes like fruits in supermarkets, while others notice small spots in pictures, which explains why monkeys and humans easily notice eyes.(通过研究这个简易模型，科学家发现了V4细胞的不同作用：感知颜色、形状以及其他视觉细节。一部分细胞会对诸如超市里水果这类圆形物体作出反应，而另一部分细胞则会捕捉图像中的微小斑点，这就解释了为什么猴子和人类能够轻易注意到眼睛。)”可知，从文章中我们可以知道V4细胞能帮助进行物体识别。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Experts point out that today's AI is built on old knowledge about the human brain, so people need to update the basic design of AI systems based on new brain research.(专家指出，如今的人工智能是建立在过去对人脑的认知之上的，因此人们需要依据大脑领域的新研究，更新人工智能系统的基础设计。)”可知，最后一段暗示未来AI的设计要跟进最新的脑科学研究成果。 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Nothing is worse than needing rain and then having a number of storms finally roll through only to leave your yard full of standing water. Fortunately, the easiest way to manage such issue in your yard is creating a rain garden. ____16____ They normally contain pollinator-friendly native plants because they have deeper roots than non-native decorative plants. So they are better able to absorb water instead of allowing it to pool and sit on the surface. Even if standing water isn’t a problem, rain gardens offer other advantages. Because they contain native plants, they provide habitats for important pollinators and attract more birds to your yard. ____17____ After a storm, runoff from your yard picks up rubbish and sometimes chemical pollutants, carrying them downhill to the nearest waterway. A rain garden stops this overflow by trapping the water and using soil and plant roots to purify it. ____18____ This also prevents flooding, as it keeps heavy rainwater from rushing into waterways all at once. Then how to make your own rain garden? ____19____ It’s easiest to choose an area that’s already lower than the rest of your yard and tends to collect water. However, you’ll also want to make sure the rain garden is at least 10 feet from your house and away from any underground facilities or tree roots. Once you’ve found the perfect place, it’s time to dig your garden and choose your plants. It’s a good idea to plant a mixture of different kinds of plants. Luckily, because they’re full of native plants, rain gardens don’t need much care besides some weeding and watering during the first year. ____20____ A. To get started, select the right location. B. All done, just relax and enjoy a better environment. C. Many people love growing vegetables in their yards. D. The clean water then recharges groundwater supplies. E. Rain gardens can also help protect local water systems. F. Rain gardens are easy-care plots in low-lying yard areas. G. But remember to design one based on local rainfall conditions. 【答案】16. F 17. E 18. D 19. A 20. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了雨水花园的功能、优势及建造方法。 【16题详解】 上文“Fortunately, the easiest way to manage such issue in your yard is creating a rain garden. (幸运的是，解决院子里积水问题最简单的方法就是建造雨水花园。)”引出了雨水花园这一概念，下文“They normally contain pollinator-friendly native plants because they have deeper roots than non-native decorative plants. (它们通常种植有利于传粉者的本土植物，因为本土植物比非本土装饰植物根系更深。)”中的“They”指代雨水花园，并具体描述其特征。空处应承接上文对雨水花园的引入，给出总体定义以引出下文的具体描述。F选项“雨水花园是院子低洼地区易于养护的地块”是对雨水花园的总体定义，既承接上文引出的rain garden概念，又使下文的“They”有明确指代对象，逻辑衔接自然。 【17题详解】 上文“Even if standing water isn’t a problem, rain gardens offer other advantages. Because they contain native plants, they provide habitats for important pollinators and attract more birds to your yard. (即使积水不是问题，雨水花园还有其他好处。因为种植本土植物，它们为重要的传粉者提供了栖息地，还能吸引更多鸟类来到院子里。)”介绍了雨水花园在生态方面的好处，下文“After a storm, runoff from your yard picks up rubbish and sometimes chemical pollutants, carrying them downhill to the nearest waterway. A rain garden stops this overflow by trapping the water and using soil and plant roots to purify it. (暴风雨过后，院子里的径流会卷走垃圾，有时还有化学污染物，顺着地势把它们冲到最近的水道里。雨水花园通过截留雨水、利用土壤和植物根系净化水质的方式来阻止这种溢流。)”则转向雨水花园对水质和水系的保护作用。空处应承上启下，引出雨水花园在保护水系方面的新好处。E选项“雨水花园还有助于保护当地的水系”中的“also”承接上文已提到的好处，“protect local water systems”引出下文关于径流、污染物、水道的内容，形成逻辑衔接。 【18题详解】 上文“A rain garden stops this overflow by trapping the water and using soil and plant roots to purify it. (雨水花园通过截留雨水、利用土壤和植物根系净化水质的方式来阻止这种溢流。)”讲了雨水花园净化雨水的作用，下文“This also prevents flooding, as it keeps heavy rainwater from rushing into waterways all at once. (这也防止了洪水，因为它避免暴雨雨水一下子涌入水道。)”中的“This also”表明上文还有另一个积极作用。空处应承接上文“净化雨水”的结果，并与下文的“防止洪水”形成并列关系。D选项“净化后的水随后补充了地下水供应”中的“The clean water”承接上文的“purify it”，“then”表示顺承，“recharges groundwater supplies”是净化后的直接结果，与下文的“prevents flooding”并列，都是雨水花园的积极作用，延续净化流程，同时自然引出后续的防洪效果，逻辑连贯。 【19题详解】 上文“Then how to make your own rain garden? (那么如何建造自己的雨水花园呢？)”以问句形式引出建造雨水花园的话题，下文“It’s easiest to choose an area that’s already lower than the rest of your yard and tends to collect water. (选择一个已经比院子其他地方低且容易积水的区域是最容易的。)”具体讲如何选择位置。空处应承接上文的问题，引出建造的第一步——选址。A选项“首先，选择合适的位置”中的“To get started”承接上文的问题，“select the right location”与下文的“choose an area”形成同义呼应，逻辑衔接自然。 【20题详解】 上文“Luckily, because they’re full of native plants, rain gardens don’t need much care besides some weeding and watering during the first year. (幸运的是，因为雨水花园种满了本土植物，除了第一年的一些除草和浇水外，不需要太多养护。)”说明雨水花园第一年只需少量除草和浇水，空处应总结其后续维护的轻松性，是一个总结性的收尾。B选项“全部完成，就放松享受更好的环境吧”是对全文建造雨水花园过程的总结收尾，承接上文“不需要太多养护”的内容，传达出建好之后便可享受成果的轻松语气，总结全流程，为整篇雨水花园的介绍画上完整句号。 第三部分 语言知识运用(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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和 D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 My biggest regret was my relationship to my smartphone, with daily screen time hitting over five hours.

I even did better that month. It was a ____33____ to unplug my brain from the internet regularly. After about two weeks, I noticed I’d lost my “thumb twitch” — a physical urge to ____34____ my phone at any other moment.

And that ____ was increasingly accompanied by the kind of sick regret that I associate with ____ behavior.”描述的作者手机上瘾以及下文“out of my control”可知，作者换用功能机是为了修正这种失控的状态。 【29题详解】 考查形容词。句意：突然之间，数字世界以及它无穷无尽的娱乐，就被限制在我的电脑上。A. limited受限的；B. unknown未知的；C. closed关闭的；D. accessible可访问的。根据第二段“I gave up my $1,300 iPhone 15 for a $108 Orbic Journey”可知，没有了智能手机，作者只能通过电脑接触数字内容，数字娱乐的渠道被大幅收窄、范围受限。 【30题详解】 考查名词‌。句意：这也成了同事们质疑我的缘由。A. wonder好奇；B. doubt怀疑；C. support支持；D. hesitation犹豫。根据下文“They thought I wouldn’t function without knowledge readily available.”可知，同事们认为没有随时可获取的信息作者无法正常工作，体现出他们对作者这个决定的不理解与怀疑。 【31题详解】 ‌考查名词。句意：没错，没有智能手机有时候确实是件糟心事——比如我开到公共充电桩，才意识到没有应用程序就无法登录。A. pain麻烦、令人头痛的人（或事）；B. choice选择；C. surprise惊喜；D. lesson教训。根据下文“like when I pulled into a public charger and realized I couldn’t log in without an app.”可知，下文举例作者到了公共充电桩才发现没有APP无法登录使用，这类场景就是脱离智能手机后遇到的麻烦、令人头痛的事情。 【32题详解】 考查动词。句意：但尽管状况百出，我还是熬过来了。A. survived挺过、撑过；B. regretted后悔；C. suffered受苦；D. agreed同意。上文列举了诸多使用功能机的不便，“But despite all that”表转折以及让步的介宾短语，说明作者成功适应了这种状态，顺利度过了这段时间。 【33题详解】 考查名词。句意：能够定期把大脑从互联网中抽离出来，是一种解脱。A. pity遗憾；B. must必须做的事；C. relief解脱、放松；D. gift礼物。根据下文“After about two weeks, I noticed I’d lost my “thumb twitch””可知，作者的状态变得更好，说明脱离网络给作者带来了轻松、释然的感受。 【34题详解】 ‌考查动词‌。句意：大约两周之后，我发现自己不再有“拇指抽动”的毛病了——那是一种无时无刻都想要查看手机的生理冲动。A. check查看；B. drop放下；C. touch触碰；D. update更新。根据上文““thumb twitch””可知，日常使用智能手机的高频动作就是解锁查看消息、通知等内容，这是手机成瘾者的典型惯性行为。 【35题详解】 ‌考查动词短语‌。句意：我仍然没有‌重新拿起‌我的iPhone。A. put away收好；B. learned about了解；C. dealt with处理；D. picked up拿起、重新使用。根据上文“I gave up my $1,300 iPhone 15”可知，上文提到作者主动放弃了iPhone，这里说明至今也没有重新恢复使用它。 第二节 (共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 On April 4, the first day of the Qingming holidays, 26-year-old Sun Yiheng traveled a long distance to a tea garden in Huzhou to experience firsthand the traditional art of tea picking. For Sun, tea has long been an essential part of daily life in China, which made her eager to discover ____36____ fresh tea leaves turn into the drink we enjoy. Visiting during spring, a season associated with renewal, also ____37____ (offer) her a chance to experience nature up close. Sun is not alone. On China’s lifestyle-sharing platform Xiaohongshu, ____38____ (post) about tea garden visits and tea culture experiences across the country are increasingly common. The ____39____ (enthusiastic) about tea-picking experiences reflects a growing desire among young Chinese ____40____ (step) into tradition in a more tangible way, said Zhu Yi, an associate professor at China Agricultural University in Beijing. Zhang Menglu, head of Pu’er Tengyi Tea Co, oversees about 240 hectares of tea gardens in Pu’er. During peak season, 80 to 120 participants pour into her tea garden daily where staff members teach them to identify the right buds (花芽), pick carefully, ____41____ work through each step of processing, so that they leave ____42____ the tea they have made themselves. Experiential tea picking in these gardens typically focuses on ____43____ (young) plantation trees, which are easier to manage and better suited for both educational tours and photo-oriented visits. By contrast, access to ancient tea trees ____44____ (keep) within specified zones to minimize human impact, which allows visitors to take part in immersive experiences while also ______45______ (gain) an awareness of ecological protection, according to Zhang. 【答案】36. how 37. offered 38. posts 39. enthusiasm 40. to step 41. and 42. with 43. younger 44. is kept 45. gaining 【解析】 【导语】这篇文章主要介绍了清明假期年轻人热衷茶园采茶体验，纷纷线上分享，渴望真切感受传统茶文化。茶园区分新式茶树与古茶树游览范围，兼顾游玩体验与生态保护。 【36题详解】 考查宾语从句。句意：对孙来说，茶叶早已是中国日常生活中不可或缺的一部分，这让她十分渴望了解新鲜茶叶是如何变成我们所享用的饮品的。动词discover后接宾语从句，从句结构完整，不缺主语/宾语，结合语义“新鲜茶叶如何变成我们饮用的茶”，缺少方式状语，故填连接副词how。 【37题详解】 考查动词时态。句意：春天是万物复苏的季节，这次出行也让她有机会近距离感受大自然。句子主语为动名词短语Visiting during spring，动名词作主语时谓语用单数；全文讲述清明假期的过往经历，整体为一般过去时，故填offer的过去式offered。 【38题详解】 考查名词复数形式。句意：在中国的生活方式分享平台小红书上，关于全国各地茶园探访和茶文化体验的帖子日益增多。空格处在句中作主语，后文谓语为are，说明主语是复数；post作名词意为“帖子”，故填复数形式posts。 【39题详解】 考查名词。句意：北京中国农业大学副教授朱毅表示，人们对采茶体验的热情，反映出越来越多的中国年轻人希望以更切实的方式走进传统。定冠词The后需接名词，在句中作主语；形容词enthusiastic的名词形式为enthusiasm（热情），为不可数名词。 【40题详解】 考查动词不定式。句意：北京中国农业大学副教授朱毅表示，人们对采茶体验的热情，反映出越来越多的中国年轻人希望以更切实的方式走进传统。分析句子可知，此处为固定搭配desire to do sth. 表示“做某事的渴望”，不定式作后置定语修饰desire，所以为动词不定式to step。 【41题详解】 考查连词。句意：在旺季期间，每天有80至120名参与者涌入她的茶园，工作人员会教他们如何识别合适的嫩芽、仔细采摘，并指导完成每一道加工工序，最终让参与者亲手制作出属于自己的茶叶。分析句子可知，句中identify the right buds、pick carefully、work through each step of processing是三个并列的动作，作teach的宾语补足语，并列结构中最后一个动作前需加并列连词and。 【42题详解】 考查介词。句意：在旺季期间，每天有80至120名参与者涌入她的茶园，工作人员会教他们如何识别合适的嫩芽、仔细采摘，并指导完成每一道加工工序，最终让参与者亲手制作出属于自己的茶叶。此处为固定搭配leave with sth. 表示“带着某物离开”，符合“游客带着自己亲手制作的茶离开”的语义，所以此处为介词with。 【43题详解】 考查形容词比较级。句意：这些茶园的体验式采茶活动通常以较年轻的种植树为主，这类树木更易于管理，更适合开展教育参观和摄影游览。后文By contrast（相比之下）引出对比对象ancient tea trees（古茶树），因此此处指“树龄更小的种植茶树”，需用形容词比较级younger。 【44题详解】 考查动词时态和语态。句意：相比之下，古茶树的进入区域被限制在指定范围内，以减少人为干扰，使游客既能参与沉浸式体验，又能增强对生态保护的认识，张表示。此处为谓语动词，描述客观规则用一般现在时，句子主语access to ancient tea trees（进入古茶树的权限 / 区域）和动词keep是被动关系，此处为一般现在时被动语态，主语为单数概念，所以谓语动词为is kept。 【45题详解】 考查状语从句的省略用法。句意：相比之下，古茶树的进入区域被限制在指定范围内，以减少人为干扰，使游客既能参与沉浸式体验，又能增强对生态保护的认识，张表示。分析句子可知，此处为while引导时间状语，从句主语与主句主语visitors一致，且与gain是主动关系，可省略主语和be动词，保留现在分词，所以此处为gaining。 第四部分 写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节 (满分15分) 46. 假定你是李华，你校正在推行“无围墙课堂”（Learning Beyond Walls）活动，形式为每月组织一次校外实地学习。请给你的英国笔友Chris写一封邮件分享，内容包括： (1)活动介绍； (2)你的感受。 注意： (1)写作词数应为80个左右。 (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Dear Chris, _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】Dear Chris, How’s everything going?

She was asked to help a second grader named Triana with reading. They met in the Reading Corner of the library every Wednesday afternoon. On the first Wednesday, Triana opened a picture book and read in a slow, shaky voice, stopping after almost every word. The hour felt long. The next few Wednesdays were the same. Triana tried hard and always got stuck on simple words. Sometimes she got so frustrated that she pushed the book away. Taylor didn't know how to help. She just sat there, feeling useless. At that time, Taylor had her own problem. She had always dreamed of performing in the school talent show, but the fear of failing and looking foolish held her back. She had already missed last year’s show because she couldn’t bring herself to sign up. Now next month’s show was approaching, and the deadline to sign up was still four weeks away. Still, she hesitated. One Wednesday afternoon, Triana pushed her book away again. Taylor watched her and realized something — Triana gave up because she didn’t know how to get past the hard words. It reminded Taylor of her own fear of signing up. A thought struck her. She could reach out to help the little girl and together they might make some changes. That night, Taylor searched online for ways to help struggling readers. She found a simple trick: break long words into smaller parts. The next Wednesday, Triana got stuck on “grasshopper”. Taylor told her not to give up but to break it into pieces. She covered half the word and had Triana read “grass”, then the other half for “hopper”. When she asked Triana to put them together, Triana’s eyes lit up. “Grasshopper!” They both laughed. Over the next few weeks, Triana's reading steadily improved, moving from picture books to short chapter books. Watching Triana struggle and keep going taught Taylor something important about not giving up. 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。 Paragraph 1: Three days before the deadline, Taylor walked into the school office. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: The Wednesday after the talent show, Taylor showed up at the library with a smile. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Paragraph 1: Three days before the deadline, Taylor walked into the school office. Her heart pounded as she picked up the talent show sign-up form, but this time, she didn’t put it back. She thought of Triana — how the little girl had stumbled over “grasshopper” yet kept trying, how her eyes had lit up when she finally read it right. If a second grader could face her fears every Wednesday, Taylor could face hers too. She scribbled her name and performance piece on the form, handed it to the teacher, and walked out with a mix of terror and relief. The fear was still there, but so was a newfound determination. Paragraph 2: The Wednesday after the talent show, Taylor showed up at the library with a smile. Triana was already there, holding a chapter book. “How did it go?” she asked eagerly. Taylor admitted she had stumbled on one high note, but she had kept going and finished her song — and the audience had applauded. Triana grinned. “Like grasshopper!” she said. They both laughed, and Triana opened her book to read aloud. As Taylor listened to her fluent voice, she realized they had been teaching each other all along: Triana learned to read, and Taylor learned that courage doesn’t mean not being afraid — it means trying anyway. 【解析】 【导语】本文以勇气与成长为线索展开，讲述了Taylor在图书馆志愿辅导二年级学生Triana阅读的过程中，从Triana面对困难不放弃的精神中获得启发，克服自己对才艺表演的恐惧，最终报名参赛并完成演出，领悟到勇气不是不害怕而是敢于尝试的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，本段可描写Taylor在才艺秀报名截止前三日，克服内心恐惧、受小女孩Triana坚持不懈的精神鼓舞，鼓起勇气完成报名的全过程，以及报名后既害怕又满怀决心的复杂心理活动。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，本段可描写才艺秀结束后，Taylor笑着来到图书馆与Triana碰面，二人交流表演与阅读经历，产生共鸣，泰勒从中领悟勇气的真正含义。 2. 续写线索：走进办公室拿起报名表——想起Triana的坚持受到鼓舞——签下名字走出办公室——演出后回到图书馆——与Triana分享经历——领悟勇气真谛互相成长 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①潦草书写：scribble/scrawl ②拿着：hold/grasp/grip ③承认：admit/confess/acknowledge 情绪类 ①害怕：terror/fear/fright ②急切地：eagerly/keenly/enthusiastically 【点睛】【高分句型1】Triana was already there, holding a chapter book.

During cancer treatment, she lost all her hair, so she began to wear a wig. “But that wig — and I only had one wig — was uncomfortable, and it was annoying,” Gentile said. “So when I sort of had a crew cut look (平头发型), I decided that it was time to give the wig up.” The first time she was driving to work without the wig, Gentile felt exposed. As the head of a local college and a frequent spokesperson, she worried about how people would respond. “I didn’t want to get the ‘pity eyes’ that people give you when you’re sick,” Gentile said. “I wanted to just keep moving.” She stopped at a convenience store to pick up some coffee and lunch. As she shopped through the passage, a woman approached her. Fifteen years later, Gentile still remembers what the woman said. “Not everybody could wear a hairstyle like that. You look fantastic.” Gentile was amazed. She managed to say, “Thank you,” before the woman walked away. Then she went back to her car, letting the words settle. “I sat there for a while, sort of treasuring this wonderful, kind thing that this person had said to me,” Gentile said. “And it really made a turning point for me that made me feel seen, made me feel normal and gave me the courage to get to work and just get started.” Gentile donated the wig and never looked back. She completed the cancer treatment and has had no evidence of cancer since 2011. Thinking back to that encounter, she credits the woman’s kindness as a turning point. She says it inspires her to see other people the way that stranger saw her and to acknowledge what they might be going through. “I think about this woman a lot. I’m kinder because of her. So I’m very grateful.” 4. Why did Gentile decide to stop wearing the wig? A. It was out of fashion. B. It affected her public image. C. It failed to cover her hair loss. D. It brought her physical discomfort. 5. What can we learn about Gentile from paragraph 3? A. She hated to drive without the wig. B. She was anxious about her health state. C. She was unwilling to be treated differently. D. She feared losing her professional position. 6. What happened to Gentile after she met the woman? A. She pretended to be stronger. B. She recognized her own value. C. She accepted herself confidently. D. She got sensitive to others’ comments. 7. What message does the author convey in the text? A. Suffering can shape strong personality. B. A kind word can change a person greatly. C. Courage is the key to overcoming disease. D. Appreciation contributes to true friendship. C At Cygnus School in the Netherlands, the school day is now phone-free. “Before, everyone glanced at their phones constantly,” says teacher Ms Peters. “Now it’s calmer.” Students no longer fear being photographed and posted on social media platforms during breaks. “When kids are more relaxed, they learn better,” she adds. Early data backs up her impressions. A study of 317 high schools found 75% reported better concentration after phone bans, and 66% saw improved social atmospheres. Other surveys show less bullying without phones. Fifteen-year-old Karel and Felix used to keep their phones by the bed and read messages immediately upon waking. Both initially wanted to transfer schools. Yet they adapted. “I haven’t really felt a problem,” Karel adds, “I’d get used to it and find other things to do.” Felix now notices deeper changes: “People talk more, go to shops instead of sitting on phones. Connections are better.” In the Netherlands, the debate has already moved onto social media. The Dutch government officially proposes that children under 15 should stay off social media, and wants a Europe-wide ban for this age group. They argue that if states can restrict alcohol, they should also act when platforms are addictive. Public opinion is shifting in their favour. A Unicef survey found 69% of Dutch children now support a social media ban for under-18s. Among people aged 16 to 18, support for age limits rose from 44% to 60% in one year. Former education minister Koen Becking explains: “Heavy social media use harms mental health and social skills. Kids are more distracted and anxious with devices.” At the same time, the Dutch Research Council is now examining the unintended consequences of the smartphone ban, and whether being without a phone all day increases fear of missing out and causes more intensive phone use after school. The pupils all insist they do not overuse phones before and after school. For Dutch students, phone-free school life is becoming normal. The next question for the Netherlands is whether access to the social media apps should be “a thing of the past” too. 8. What does the first paragraph focus on? A. The students’ phone addiction. B. The debate on school phone use. C. The benefits of the no-phone policy. D. The improvement in teaching methods. 9. What do Felix and Karel’s experiences show? A. Students tend to oppose new rules. B. Age can affect adaptation to phone bans. C. Views on phone bans may change over time. D. Phone bans fail to change students’ behavior. 10. What is Koen Becking’s opinion? A. He doubts the ban’s real effect. B. He rejects Unicef’s survey result. C. He backs the government’s proposal. D. He hopes for more data about teen health. 11. What may the Netherlands consider next according to the last paragraph? A. Lifting the smartphone ban in schools. B. Banning social media access for students. C. Limiting students’ after-school phone use. D. Stopping the ongoing research on the ban. D A human brain consumes less power than a light bulb (电灯泡), while artificial intelligence systems use up much more electricity to do the same tasks. Now, scientists have created a highly efficient AI model that indicates how living brains are able to do so much with so little, a team reports in the journal Nature. The model was designed to copy part of the brain’s visual function. It originally had 60 million variables (参数), but researchers cut it down to a smaller version with just 10,000 variables while keeping almost the same performance. Besides, this compact model works more similarly to real brains, which may help scientists study brain diseases such as Alzheimer’s. Traditional AI can do similar work but needs powerful computers. Different from them, the team aimed to create a simpler and more energy-saving model. They trained the new model using data collected from monkeys and removed useless parts with common data reduction methods. Finally, they got a highly streamlined AI system. This understandable model simulates the visual cells called V4 cells. This research also helps experts explore how the human brain operates. Many scientists have long tried to figure out how people recognize daily things like cats or dogs. Since it is hard to observe human brains directly while they work, researchers turn to AI for help. However, people still know little about how most complex AI systems run. The new model offers a clearer window into this process. By studying this simple model, scientists found different roles of V4 cells: sensing colors, shapes and other visual details. Some react to rounded shapes like fruits in supermarkets, while others notice small spots in pictures, which explains why monkeys and humans easily notice eyes. The findings suggest that future AI can be made simpler and smaller without losing ability. However, the model also reveals gaps between AI and human cognition. Even so, AI still has a long way to go. Unlike humans who can recognize faces in different situations easily, present AI struggles with such tasks. Experts point out that today’s AI is built on old knowledge about the human brain, so people need to update the basic design of AI systems based on new brain research. 12. What is a feature of the compact model mentioned in paragraph 2? A. Fast to construct. B. Cheap to produce. C. Low in energy use. D. Easy to carry around. 13. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The process of building the model. B. The way V4 cells deal with visual data. C. The differences between two AI systems. D. The challenges of training the new model. 14. What can we learn about V4 cells from the text? A. They help with object recognition. B. They are unique to monkey brains. C. They detect the movements of objects. D. They consume more energy than other cells. 15. What is suggested about future AI in the last paragraph? A. It should center on face recognition. B. It should keep pace with brain research. C. It should be built on what has been known. D. It should imitate the human brain structure. 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Nothing is worse than needing rain and then having a number of storms finally roll through only to leave your yard full of standing water. Fortunately, the easiest way to manage such issue in your yard is creating a rain garden. ____16____ They normally contain pollinator-friendly native plants because they have deeper roots than non-native decorative plants. So they are better able to absorb water instead of allowing it to pool and sit on the surface. Even if standing water isn’t a problem, rain gardens offer other advantages. Because they contain native plants, they provide habitats for important pollinators and attract more birds to your yard. ____17____ After a storm, runoff from your yard picks up rubbish and sometimes chemical pollutants, carrying them downhill to the nearest waterway. A rain garden stops this overflow by trapping the water and using soil and plant roots to purify it. ____18____ This also prevents flooding, as it keeps heavy rainwater from rushing into waterways all at once. Then how to make your own rain garden? ____19____ It’s easiest to choose an area that’s already lower than the rest of your yard and tends to collect water. However, you’ll also want to make sure the rain garden is at least 10 feet from your house and away from any underground facilities or tree roots. Once you’ve found the perfect place, it’s time to dig your garden and choose your plants. It’s a good idea to plant a mixture of different kinds of plants. Luckily, because they’re full of native plants, rain gardens don’t need much care besides some weeding and watering during the first year. ____20____ A. To get started, select the right location. B. All done, just relax and enjoy a better environment. C. Many people love growing vegetables in their yards. D. The clean water then recharges groundwater supplies. E. Rain gardens can also help protect local water systems. F. Rain gardens are easy-care plots in low-lying yard areas. G. But remember to design one based on local rainfall conditions. 第三部分 语言知识运用(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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和 D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 My biggest regret was my relationship to my smartphone, with daily screen time hitting over five hours.

She was asked to help a second grader named Triana with reading. They met in the Reading Corner of the library every Wednesday afternoon. On the first Wednesday, Triana opened a picture book and read in a slow, shaky voice, stopping after almost every word. The hour felt long. The next few Wednesdays were the same. Triana tried hard and always got stuck on simple words. Sometimes she got so frustrated that she pushed the book away. Taylor didn't know how to help. She just sat there, feeling useless. At that time, Taylor had her own problem. She had always dreamed of performing in the school talent show, but the fear of failing and looking foolish held her back. She had already missed last year’s show because she couldn’t bring herself to sign up. Now next month’s show was approaching, and the deadline to sign up was still four weeks away. Still, she hesitated. One Wednesday afternoon, Triana pushed her book away again. Taylor watched her and realized something — Triana gave up because she didn’t know how to get past the hard words. It reminded Taylor of her own fear of signing up. A thought struck her. She could reach out to help the little girl and together they might make some changes. That night, Taylor searched online for ways to help struggling readers. She found a simple trick: break long words into smaller parts. The next Wednesday, Triana got stuck on “grasshopper”. Taylor told her not to give up but to break it into pieces. She covered half the word and had Triana read “grass”, then the other half for “hopper”. When she asked Triana to put them together, Triana’s eyes lit up. “Grasshopper!” They both laughed. Over the next few weeks, Triana's reading steadily improved, moving from picture books to short chapter books. Watching Triana struggle and keep going taught Taylor something important about not giving up. 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。 Paragraph 1: Three days before the deadline, Taylor walked into the school office. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: The Wednesday after the talent show, Taylor showed up at the library with a smile. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
