I was living in Conyers, Georgia the summer it all happened. I was a second grader, but my best friend Stephanie was only in the first grade. Both of our parents were at work and most of the time they let us go our own way. It was a hot afternoon and we decided to have an adventure in Stephanie’s basement. As I opened the basement door, before us lay the biggest room, full of amazing things like guns, dolls, and old clothes. I ran downstairs, and spotted a red steel can. It was paint. I looked beyond it and there lay even more paint in bright colors like purple, orange, blue and green. “Stephanie, I just found us a project for the day. Get some paintbrushes. We are fixing to paint.” She screamed with excitement as I told her of my secret plans and immediately we got to work. We gathered all the brushes we could find and moved all of our materials to my yard. There on the road in front of my house, we painted big stripes (条纹) of colors across the pavement. Strip e by stripe, our colors turned into a beautiful rainbow. It was fantastic! The sun was starting to sink. I saw a car in the distance and jumped up as I recognized the car. It was my mother. I couldn’t wait to show her my masterpiece. The car pulled slowly into the driveway and from the look on my mother’s face, I could tell that I was in deep trouble. My mother shut the car door and walked towards me. Her eyes glaring, she shouted, “What in the world were you thinking? I understood when you made castles out of leaves, and climbed the neighbors’ trees, but this! Come inside right now!” I stood there glaring back at her for a minute, angry because she had insulted (侮辱) my art. “Now go clean it up!” Mother and I began cleaning the road. Tears ran down my cheeks as I saw my beautiful rainbow turn into black cement. Though years have now passed, I still wonder where my rainbow has gone. I wonder if, maybe when I get older, I can find my rainbow and never have to brush it away. I guess we all need some sort of rainbow to brighten our lives from time to time and to keep our hopes and dreams colorful. 4. What can be inferred about the children’s summer life at the beginning? A. They were often left alone at home. B. Their parents took them to playgrounds. C. They attended summer school programs. D. They had strict schedules set by their parents. 5. How did the narrator feel when she first saw her mother’s car approaching? A. Anxious and fearful. B. Thrilled and proud. C. Guilty and regretful. D. Surprised and confused. 6.

A. something imaginative and fun B. the stripes on the pavement C. the rainbow in the sky D. important lessons learned in childhood 7. It can be learned from the passage that parents should ______. A. encourage children to paint B. value friendship among children C. protect rather than destroy children’s dreams D. discover the hidden talent in children 【答案】4. A 5. B 6. A 7. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。讲述了小时候“我”和好友在路面画彩虹，被母亲要求清理，梦想受挫。多年后仍怀念那份童真创意，希望人们守护心中的美好与梦想。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Both of our parents were at work and most of the time they let us go our own way. (我们的父母都在工作，大部分时间他们让我们自己活动)”可知，父母大部分时间让他们自己待着，这暗示了他们经常独自在家。故选A。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段的“I couldn’t wait to show her my masterpiece. (我迫不及待地想向她展示我的杰作)”可知，当看到母亲的车时，作者最初的心情是兴奋和自豪的，期待展示作品。故选B。 【6题详解】 词义猜测题。根据最后一段“to keep our hopes and dreams colorful (为了让我们的希望和梦想多彩)”推断，此时作者提到的rainbow不是指自己曾经画过的街道上的彩虹，而是指自己的人生中的彩虹，也就是有想象力和乐趣的东西，激励自己保持希望和梦想。故划线词指的是“一些富有创意且有趣的东西”。故选A。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Though years have now passed, I still wonder where my rainbow has gone. I wonder if, maybe when I get older, I can find my rainbow and never have to brush it away. I guess we all need some sort of rainbow to brighten our lives from time to time and to keep our hopes and dreams colorful.(尽管时光已流逝多年，但我仍不禁疑惑我的那道彩虹究竟去了哪里。我想知道，或许等我年岁渐长，是否能够寻回那道彩虹，从而永远不必将其抹去。我想我们都需要某种形式的彩虹，时不时地为我们的生活增添亮色，让我们的希望和梦想始终充满色彩)”以及整篇文章开头叙述作者开心的画彩虹的过程，到后来被母亲要求把街道清洗干净，到最后的感慨，表明作者写作最终想要表达的目的是：父母应该支持孩子的某些创造性的行为，而不是一味地否定。故选C。 C A Polish digital artist who uses classical painting styles to create dreamy fantasy landscapes, Greg Rutkowski has made illustrations for games such as Dungeon& Dragons and Magic: The Gathering. And he’s become a sudden hit in the new world of text-to-image AI generation. His distinctive style is now one of the most commonly used prompts in the new open-source AI art generator Stable Diffusion. The tool, along with other popular image-generation AI models, allows anyone to create impressive images based on text prompts. For example, type in “Wizard with sword and a glowing orb of magic fire fights a fierce dragon Greg Rutkowski,” and the system will produce something that looks not a million miles away from works in Rutkowski’s style. But these open-source programs are built by scraping images from the internet, often without permission and proper attribution to artists. As a result, they are raising tricky questions about ethics and copyright. And artists like Rutkowski have had enough. According to the website Lexica, which tracks over 10 million Stable Diffusion images and prompts, Rutkowski’s name has been used as a prompt around 93,000 times. Rutkowski was initially surprised but thought it might be a good way to reach new audiences. Then he tried searching for his name to see if a piece he had worked on had been published. The online search brought back work that had his name attached to it but wasn’t his. “It’s been just a month. What about in a year? I probably won’t be able to find my work out there because the internet will be flooded with AI art, ” Rutkowski said. “That’s concerning.” Other artists besides Rutkowski have been surprised by the apparent popularity of their work in text-to-image generators — and some are now fighting back. Karla Ortiz, an illustrator based in San Francisco who found her work in Stable Diffusion’s data set, has been raising awareness about the issues around AI art and copyright. Artists say they risk losing income as people start using AI-generated images based on copyrights material for commercial purposes. But it’s also a lot more personal, Ortiz says, arguing that because art is so closely linked to a person, it could raise data protection and privacy problems. “There is a coalition growing within artist industries to figure out how to tackle or mitigate this,” says Ortiz. The group is in its early days of mobilization, which could involve pushing for new policies or regulation. One suggestion is that AI models could be trained on images in the public domain, and AI companies could forge partnerships with museums and artists. Ortiz says. 8. What can be learned about Rutkowski from the first two paragraphs? A. He is enthusiastic about using AI models. B. He is popular with the users of an AI art generator. C. He attracts admiration from other illustrators. D. He specializes in classical painting digitalization. 9. The problem with open-source AI art generators is that they A. lack flexibility in responding to prompts. B. produce artworks in unpredictable styles. C. make unauthorized use of online images. D. collect user information without consent. 10. How does Rutkowski feel about the use of his name in AI image generation at first? A. Confused but motivated. B. Surprised but hopeful. C. Interested but detached. D. Thrilled but concerned. 11. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. When Art Meets AI: Is Digital Art Real Art? B. When AI Art Goes Viral: How Do Artists Benefit? C. When AI Aids Creation: unauthorized Scraping of Data D. When AI Initiates Art: Automated Creative Processes 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。主要介绍波兰数字艺术家鲁特科夫斯基的风格受AI绘画工具青睐，以及开源AI艺术生成器存在的版权争议和艺术家们的应对行动。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“And he’s become a sudden hit in the new world of text-to-image AI generation. (他在文本生成图像的AI新世界中迅速走红。)”和第二段中的“His distinctive style is now one of the most commonly used prompts in the new open-source AI art generator Stable Diffusion. (他独特的风格如今是新的开源AI艺术生成器Stable Diffusion中最常用的提示词之一。)”可知，鲁特科夫斯基在AI艺术生成器用户中很受欢迎，其风格常被用作提示词。故选B项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“But these open-source programs are built by scraping images from the internet, often without permission and proper attribution to artists. (但这些开源程序是通过从互联网上抓取图像构建的，通常未经许可，也没有给艺术家适当的署名。)”可知，开源AI艺术生成器的问题在于未经授权就使用网上的图像。故选C项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Rutkowski was initially surprised but thought it might be a good way to reach new audiences. (鲁特科夫斯基最初感到惊讶，但认为这可能是接触新受众的好方法。)”可知，鲁特科夫斯基最初对自己的名字被用于AI图像生成时，感受是惊讶但抱有希望（希望借此接触新受众）。故选B项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第三段中的“But these open-source programs are built by scraping images from the internet, often without permission and proper attribution to artists. (但这些开源程序是通过从互联网上抓取图像构建的，且往往未经许可，也未给艺术家提供恰当的署名。)”、第七段中的“Karla Ortiz, an illustrator based in San Francisco who found her work in Stable Diffusion’s data set, has been raising awareness about the issues around AI art and copyright. (卡拉・奥尔蒂斯是一位常驻旧金山的插画师，她发现自己的作品出现在了 Stable Diffusion 的数据集里，目前她一直在努力提高人们对人工智能艺术与版权相关问题的关注。)”可知，文章核心围绕AI艺术生成器未经授权抓取艺术家图像数据、引发版权争议展开，所以“当AI助力创作：未经授权的数据抓取”最能概括全文主题，适合作为最佳标题。故选C项。 D It is common to say something is as light as a feather (羽毛) to mean something doesn't weigh much. A group of researchers, however, has found that while all feathers are pretty light, some of them are far heavier than others, and it may be because of their color. Bird feathers come in all different colors ranging from black to white, and everything in between. The researchers wanted to know if there was a difference in how much a feather of one color weighed compared to that of another color. They studied 109 specimens (标本) of birds across 19 different species. The team investigated the melanin (黑色素) in feathers. Melanin has a fairly high molecular (分子的) mass, which means it becomes a not-insignificant part of the overall weight of the feather itself. There are two forms of melanin, one found in light brown and orange feathers and the other in black, grey and darker brown feathers. Once the researchers got the feathers they needed, they collected and purified the melanin in the feathers, then weighed the melanin and compared it with the weight of the feathers before the melanin was removed. They found the melanin accounted for 25% of the total dry mass of the feathers on average. For a species known for having very dark feathers, that went up to over 60% of the weight. People may think 25% of the weight of feathers is little. That being said, when it comes to flying, every bit counts. It's pointed out that migratory birds tend to have lighter colored feathers, which could help them fly over greater distances. More studies are needed to determine how this would affect a given species of bird, but it appears that the extra weight of darker feathers is at least one factor when it comes to how evolution progressed in different species of birds. 12. Why did the researchers conduct the study? A. To compare birds' different migratory patterns. B. To collect specimens of endangered bird species. C. To demonstrate the unknown functions of bird feathers. D. To figure out the link between feather color and feather weight. 13. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. The research procedure. B. The theoretical basis. C. The function of melanin. D. The formation of melanin. 14. What is the finding of the research? A. Color is the decisive factor of feather weight. B. Melanin content may influence the weight of feathers. C. Feathers account for a quarter of a bird's weight on average. D. The darker the feather is, the greater distances the bird flies. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. The Significance in Distinguishing Feathers B. The Evolution of Bird Feathers in Different Species C. The Association between feather Color and Its Weight D. The Effect of feather Color on Bird migration Distance 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍研究人员探究鸟类羽毛颜色与重量之间的关联及相关研究发现。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The researchers wanted to know if there was a difference in how much a feather of one color weighed compared to that of another color. (研究人员想知道一种颜色的羽毛与另一种颜色的羽毛在重量上是否存在差异。)”可知，研究人员进行这项研究是为了弄清楚羽毛颜色与羽毛重量之间的联系。故选D项。 【13题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段中的“The team investigated the melanin (黑色素) in feathers. Melanin has a fairly high molecular (分子的) mass, which means it becomes a not - insignificant part of the overall weight of the feather itself. There are two forms of melanin, one found in light brown and orange feathers and the other in black, grey and darker brown feathers. (该团队研究了羽毛中的黑色素。黑色素具有相当高的分子质量，这意味着它成为羽毛整体重量中不可忽视的一部分。黑色素有两种形式，一种存在于浅棕色和橙色羽毛中，另一种存在于黑色、灰色和深棕色羽毛中。)”可知，第三段主要讲的是研究的理论基础，即黑色素与羽毛重量相关的理论依据。故选B项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“They found the melanin accounted for 25% of the total dry mass of the feathers on average. For a species known for having very dark feathers, that went up to over 60% of the weight. (他们发现黑色素平均占羽毛总干重的25%。对于一个以拥有非常深色羽毛而闻名的物种来说，这一比例高达其重量的60%以上。)”可知，研究发现黑色素含量可能会影响羽毛的重量。故选B项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中的“A group of researchers, however, has found that while all feathers are pretty light, some of them are far heavier than others, and it may be because of their color. (然而，一组研究人员发现，虽然所有的羽毛都很轻，但有些羽毛比其他羽毛重得多，这可能是因为它们的颜色。)”可知，文章主要围绕羽毛颜色与羽毛重量之间的关联展开，所以“羽毛颜色与其重量之间的关联”最适合作为文章标题。故选C项。 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。 Want More Self-Control? The Secret Isn’t Willpower. People tend to respect and even idolize strong-willed people — friends who hit up the gym five times a week or colleagues who manage to stay focused in nearly every situation. But willpower shouldn’t be confused with self-control. ____16____ , yet it may not be the most effective method. Improving willpower boils down to just trying harder while self-control relies on strategic methods. ____17____. Here are some options: Create routines. Research reveals that people who are good at self-control tend to structure their lives to avoid having to make draining decisions in the moment. ____18____ Monitor your progress. Enhancing self-control can be both easy and fast. ____19____ such as using a journal, a calendar, or an audio recording. This process creates immediate feedback and a sense of accomplishment, reinforcing your commitment. Manage your environment. Energy vampires, the type of people who leave you feeling drained, will deplete your ability to exert self-control. Likewise, people who support you and lift you up will give you a greater capacity for self-control. ____20____. “Shifting focus from individual desires to collective needs fosters motivation for self-control,” said Scott Haas, a clinical psychologist in Boston. This shift in focus reduces reliance on finite mental resources. Ultimately, self-control is less about fighting urges and more about skillfully managing your environment and perspective, leading to lasting calm. A. Build supportive networks. B. Connect to a larger purpose. C. Somehow, these routines automate positive responses. D. The key is to keep notes on your actions toward a goal. E. Multiple techniques maximize the effectiveness of self-control. F. Willpower may help manage your emotions or fight strong desires. G. For instance, scheduling fixed activities like running builds consistency. 【答案】16. F 17. E 18. G 19. D 20. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文指出自控力的关键并非意志力，而是策略性方法，介绍了建立惯例、记录进度、管理环境、关联宏大目标等技巧，助你高效提升自控力。 【16题详解】 由上文“But willpower shouldn’t be confused with self-control.(但意志力不应与自控力混淆)”和下文“yet it may not be the most effective method.(但它可能不是最有效的方法)”可知，空格处需说明“意志力的作用”，同时为“不是最有效方法”做铺垫。F项“Willpower may help manage your emotions or fight strong desires.(意志力可能有助于管理情绪或对抗强烈的欲望)”符合语境，“Willpower”承接上文核心概念，“may help”既肯定其作用，又与下文“not the most effective”形成转折，逻辑连贯。故选F项。 【17题详解】 由上文“Improving willpower boils down to just trying harder while self-control relies on strategic methods.(提升意志力归结为更努力地尝试，而自控力则依赖于策略性方法)”和下文“Here are some options:(以下是一些方法)”可知，空格处需过渡到“自控力的具体策略”。E项“Multiple techniques maximize the effectiveness of self-control.(多种技巧能最大限度地发挥自控力的效果)”符合语境，“Multiple techniques”呼应下文“some options”，“maximize the effectiveness”承接上文“strategic methods”，承上启下。故选E项。 【18题详解】 由上文“Research reveals that people who are good at self-control tend to structure their lives to avoid having to make draining decisions in the moment.(研究表明，擅长自控的人往往会规划自己的生活，以避免在当下做出耗费精力的决定)”可知，空格处需举例说明“如何通过规划生活培养自控力”。G项“For instance, scheduling fixed activities like running builds consistency.(例如，安排跑步等固定活动能培养连贯性)”符合语境，“For instance”明确举例逻辑，“scheduling fixed activities”呼应上文“structure their lives”，“builds consistency”解释了该做法对自控力的帮助，衔接自然。故选G项。 【19题详解】 由上文“Enhancing self-control can be both easy and fast.(提升自控力既简单又快捷)”和下文“such as using a journal, a calendar, or an audio recording.(例如使用日记、日历或录音)”可知，空格处需说明“记录进度的具体方式”。D项“The key is to keep notes on your actions toward a goal.(关键是记录你朝着目标采取的行动)”符合语境，“keep notes on your actions”呼应下文“journal, calendar, audio recording”等记录工具，“toward a goal”明确记录的目的，逻辑清晰。故选D项。 【20题详解】 由下文““Shifting focus from individual desires to collective needs fosters motivation for self-control,” said Scott Haas, a clinical psychologist in Boston. This shift in focus reduces reliance on finite mental resources.(波士顿临床心理学家斯科特・哈斯表示：“将关注点从个人欲望转向集体需求，能激发自我控制的动力。”这种关注点的转变会减少对有限心理资源的依赖)”可知，本段围绕“将个人与更大目标关联以提升自控力”展开，空格处需作为主题句点明核心。B项“Connect to a larger purpose.(与更宏大的目标建立联系)”符合语境，“larger purpose”呼应下文“collective needs”，“Connect to”对应“Shifting focus”，准确概括段落主旨。故选B项。 第三部分 语言运用(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，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 In June, 29-year-old Quiroz was driving to pick up lunch when she noticed 97-year-old Lilian walking slowly on the opposite side of the street.

Thomas Cole rarely spoke: no “good morning”, no “how was school”, just punishing workdays at his construction company, building skyscrapers while Eli grew up feeling invisible. Their house was neat but cold: a spotless kitchen, a home office piled with blueprints, and no photos of father and son on the walls. Every time Eli watched his friends hug their dads and laugh with them, his heart ached a little more, and the thought that his own father didn’t care about him sank even deeper. “It seems as if I were living with a stranger,” Eli once complained to his best friend, his eyes wet. Thomas lost his wife when Eli was five, and since then, work had become his escape. He’d get up and leave home at 5 a.m., return after 9 p. m., too tired to chat, believing providing for Eli — paying his school fees, buying him whatever he needed — was enough. But Eli was hungry for words, warmth, proof that he mattered. “He never asks about my soccer games, and never remembers my birthday,” he’d complain, ignoring how Thomas always left a warm breakfast on the counter, and how his clothes were always folded neatly. One rainy evening, Eli rode his bike home as usual. Unexpectedly, he lost his balance on the wet road and fell down. The next thing he knew, he was being rushed to the hospital. His father, Thomas, had been called from work and hurried over to his side. When Eli woke in the hospital, he saw his father — disheveled, eyes bloodshot, his work boots still caked in mud. He didn’t say much, but just adjusted Eli’s pillow, handed him a glass of water, and sat silently by the bed. It turned out that Thomas took the next two weeks off work — something no one at his company had ever seen. He cooked Eli’s favorite food, helped him shower and change with gentle, awkward movements, and read to him at night — softly yet hesitantly, as if he was afraid to break the silence. 注意:1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The two weeks passed in a strange new rhythm. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After being released from hospital, Eli had a deep conversation with his father. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 The two weeks passed in a strange new rhythm. Eli watched his father move through the quiet room with a determination he’d never seen. Thomas would pause, as if searching for words, before asking, “Need anything?” It was always a physical need, like water, food or the remote control. Yet in the clumsy gestures of care, Eli realized his father’s profound love for him. The silence was no longer empty; it was filled with gestures. Eli noticed Thomas’s rough hands handling him gently and his frowning over medical instructions as intently as blueprints. After being released from hospital, Eli had a deep conversation with his father. It didn’t happen in the noisy car ride home, but later, in the evening’s soft light, sitting in their backyard with damp rain air lingering. Thomas spoke first. “I tried building a strong and perfect world so you’d never feel my cracks after your mom left,” he said bitterly. Eli listened, replying not in pain, but with understanding: “I don’t need a perfect world, Dad — I just need to be in yours.” The high wall in Eli’s heart finally broke down. Through this incident, both father and son realized that true love lies in open and honest communication and long-term companionship. 【解析】 【导语】本文一段人物为线索展开。文章讲述了Eli与他寡言少语的父亲Thomas之间的关系变化。Eli因父亲的忙碌和沉默而感到被忽视，父亲则以为默默付出便是尽责。一次意外受伤让Thomas放下工作，开始用行动关心Eli，Eli也逐渐感受到了父亲深沉的爱。 【详解】1. 段落续写： 由第一段首句“两个星期以一种奇怪的新节奏过去了。”可知，第一段需描写Eli适应父亲的默默关怀，从笨拙举动中感受爱。 由第二段首句“从医院出院后，Eli和他的父亲进行了一次深入的交谈。”可知，第二段需描写父子出院后的交流、心墙破除与情感升华。 2. 续写线索： 父子相处的新节奏——父亲笨拙的关心——Eli的感悟——出院后的深入交流——父子情深化 3. 词汇激活： 行为类 ①注视，观察：watch/observe ②停顿，暂停：pause/halt ③回应，回答：reply/respond 情绪类 ①决心，坚定：determination/resolve/purpose ②理解，体谅：understanding/empathy/sympathy 【点睛】[高分句型1]Thomas would pause, as if searching for words, before asking, “Need anything?”（运用了as if引导的状语从句的省略） [高分句型2]I tried building a strong and perfect world so you’d never feel my cracks after your mom left,” he said bitterly.（运用了after引导的时间状语从句） [高分句型3]Through this incident, both father and son realized that true love lies in open and honest communication and long-term companionship.（运用了that引导的宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 醴陵市第一中学高三下学期一模模检测试题 英语 满分150分，考试时间120分钟 第二部分 阅读(共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Altamont Gardens, covering over 40 acres, is a beautiful combination of formal lawns and informal gardens with riverside paths.

B When you are little, the whole world feels like a big playground. I was living in Conyers, Georgia the summer it all happened. I was a second grader, but my best friend Stephanie was only in the first grade. Both of our parents were at work and most of the time they let us go our own way. It was a hot afternoon and we decided to have an adventure in Stephanie’s basement. As I opened the basement door, before us lay the biggest room, full of amazing things like guns, dolls, and old clothes. I ran downstairs, and spotted a red steel can. It was paint. I looked beyond it and there lay even more paint in bright colors like purple, orange, blue and green. “Stephanie, I just found us a project for the day. Get some paintbrushes. We are fixing to paint.” She screamed with excitement as I told her of my secret plans and immediately we got to work. We gathered all the brushes we could find and moved all of our materials to my yard. There on the road in front of my house, we painted big stripes (条纹) of colors across the pavement. Strip e by stripe, our colors turned into a beautiful rainbow. It was fantastic! The sun was starting to sink. I saw a car in the distance and jumped up as I recognized the car. It was my mother. I couldn’t wait to show her my masterpiece. The car pulled slowly into the driveway and from the look on my mother’s face, I could tell that I was in deep trouble. My mother shut the car door and walked towards me. Her eyes glaring, she shouted, “What in the world were you thinking? I understood when you made castles out of leaves, and climbed the neighbors’ trees, but this! Come inside right now!” I stood there glaring back at her for a minute, angry because she had insulted (侮辱) my art. “Now go clean it up!” Mother and I began cleaning the road. Tears ran down my cheeks as I saw my beautiful rainbow turn into black cement. Though years have now passed, I still wonder where my rainbow has gone. I wonder if, maybe when I get older, I can find my rainbow and never have to brush it away. I guess we all need some sort of rainbow to brighten our lives from time to time and to keep our hopes and dreams colorful. 4. What can be inferred about the children’s summer life at the beginning?

A. encourage children to paint B. value friendship among children C. protect rather than destroy children’s dreams D. discover the hidden talent in children C A Polish digital artist who uses classical painting styles to create dreamy fantasy landscapes, Greg Rutkowski has made illustrations for games such as Dungeon& Dragons and Magic: The Gathering. And he’s become a sudden hit in the new world of text-to-image AI generation. His distinctive style is now one of the most commonly used prompts in the new open-source AI art generator Stable Diffusion. The tool, along with other popular image-generation AI models, allows anyone to create impressive images based on text prompts. For example, type in “Wizard with sword and a glowing orb of magic fire fights a fierce dragon Greg Rutkowski,” and the system will produce something that looks not a million miles away from works in Rutkowski’s style. But these open-source programs are built by scraping images from the internet, often without permission and proper attribution to artists. As a result, they are raising tricky questions about ethics and copyright. And artists like Rutkowski have had enough. According to the website Lexica, which tracks over 10 million Stable Diffusion images and prompts, Rutkowski’s name has been used as a prompt around 93,000 times. Rutkowski was initially surprised but thought it might be a good way to reach new audiences. Then he tried searching for his name to see if a piece he had worked on had been published. The online search brought back work that had his name attached to it but wasn’t his. “It’s been just a month. What about in a year? I probably won’t be able to find my work out there because the internet will be flooded with AI art, ” Rutkowski said. “That’s concerning.” Other artists besides Rutkowski have been surprised by the apparent popularity of their work in text-to-image generators — and some are now fighting back. Karla Ortiz, an illustrator based in San Francisco who found her work in Stable Diffusion’s data set, has been raising awareness about the issues around AI art and copyright. Artists say they risk losing income as people start using AI-generated images based on copyrights material for commercial purposes. But it’s also a lot more personal, Ortiz says, arguing that because art is so closely linked to a person, it could raise data protection and privacy problems. “There is a coalition growing within artist industries to figure out how to tackle or mitigate this,” says Ortiz. The group is in its early days of mobilization, which could involve pushing for new policies or regulation. One suggestion is that AI models could be trained on images in the public domain, and AI companies could forge partnerships with museums and artists. Ortiz says. 8. What can be learned about Rutkowski from the first two paragraphs? A. He is enthusiastic about using AI models. B. He is popular with the users of an AI art generator. C. He attracts admiration from other illustrators. D. He specializes in classical painting digitalization. 9. The problem with open-source AI art generators is that they A. lack flexibility in responding to prompts. B. produce artworks in unpredictable styles. C. make unauthorized use of online images. D. collect user information without consent. 10. How does Rutkowski feel about the use of his name in AI image generation at first? A. Confused but motivated. B. Surprised but hopeful. C. Interested but detached. D. Thrilled but concerned. 11. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. When Art Meets AI: Is Digital Art Real Art? B. When AI Art Goes Viral: How Do Artists Benefit? C. When AI Aids Creation: unauthorized Scraping of Data D. When AI Initiates Art: Automated Creative Processes D It is common to say something is as light as a feather (羽毛) to mean something doesn't weigh much. A group of researchers, however, has found that while all feathers are pretty light, some of them are far heavier than others, and it may be because of their color. Bird feathers come in all different colors ranging from black to white, and everything in between. The researchers wanted to know if there was a difference in how much a feather of one color weighed compared to that of another color. They studied 109 specimens (标本) of birds across 19 different species. The team investigated the melanin (黑色素) in feathers. Melanin has a fairly high molecular (分子的) mass, which means it becomes a not-insignificant part of the overall weight of the feather itself. There are two forms of melanin, one found in light brown and orange feathers and the other in black, grey and darker brown feathers. Once the researchers got the feathers they needed, they collected and purified the melanin in the feathers, then weighed the melanin and compared it with the weight of the feathers before the melanin was removed. They found the melanin accounted for 25% of the total dry mass of the feathers on average. For a species known for having very dark feathers, that went up to over 60% of the weight. People may think 25% of the weight of feathers is little. That being said, when it comes to flying, every bit counts. It's pointed out that migratory birds tend to have lighter colored feathers, which could help them fly over greater distances. More studies are needed to determine how this would affect a given species of bird, but it appears that the extra weight of darker feathers is at least one factor when it comes to how evolution progressed in different species of birds. 12. Why did the researchers conduct the study? A. To compare birds' different migratory patterns. B. To collect specimens of endangered bird species. C. To demonstrate the unknown functions of bird feathers. D. To figure out the link between feather color and feather weight. 13. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. The research procedure. B. The theoretical basis. C. The function of melanin. D. The formation of melanin. 14. What is the finding of the research? A. Color is the decisive factor of feather weight. B. Melanin content may influence the weight of feathers. C. Feathers account for a quarter of a bird's weight on average. D. The darker the feather is, the greater distances the bird flies. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. The Significance in Distinguishing Feathers B. The Evolution of Bird Feathers in Different Species C. The Association between feather Color and Its Weight D. The Effect of feather Color on Bird migration Distance 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。 Want More Self-Control? The Secret Isn’t Willpower.

Thomas Cole rarely spoke: no “good morning”, no “how was school”, just punishing workdays at his construction company, building skyscrapers while Eli grew up feeling invisible. Their house was neat but cold: a spotless kitchen, a home office piled with blueprints, and no photos of father and son on the walls. Every time Eli watched his friends hug their dads and laugh with them, his heart ached a little more, and the thought that his own father didn’t care about him sank even deeper. “It seems as if I were living with a stranger,” Eli once complained to his best friend, his eyes wet. Thomas lost his wife when Eli was five, and since then, work had become his escape. He’d get up and leave home at 5 a.m., return after 9 p. m., too tired to chat, believing providing for Eli — paying his school fees, buying him whatever he needed — was enough. But Eli was hungry for words, warmth, proof that he mattered. “He never asks about my soccer games, and never remembers my birthday,” he’d complain, ignoring how Thomas always left a warm breakfast on the counter, and how his clothes were always folded neatly. One rainy evening, Eli rode his bike home as usual. Unexpectedly, he lost his balance on the wet road and fell down. The next thing he knew, he was being rushed to the hospital. His father, Thomas, had been called from work and hurried over to his side. When Eli woke in the hospital, he saw his father — disheveled, eyes bloodshot, his work boots still caked in mud. He didn’t say much, but just adjusted Eli’s pillow, handed him a glass of water, and sat silently by the bed. It turned out that Thomas took the next two weeks off work — something no one at his company had ever seen. He cooked Eli’s favorite food, helped him shower and change with gentle, awkward movements, and read to him at night — softly yet hesitantly, as if he was afraid to break the silence. 注意:1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The two weeks passed in a strange new rhythm. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After being released from hospital, Eli had a deep conversation with his father. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
