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
The Teen Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) course arms teenagers with strategies to lend a hand to peers weighed down by mental troubles. When a friend or classmate is overwhelmed by emotional pain or stuck in a frightening mental health emergency, young learners will know how to provide initial support and accompany them through the hard time until professional assistance steps in or the tough situation eases off.
Learning Outcomes
Upon completion of this course students will be able to:
● Recognise the signs and symptoms of mental health problems commonly experienced in young people
● Know when and how to seek the support of a trusted adult
● Use an evidence-based action plan to initiate a mental health first aid conversation
● Assess a range of crisis situations and provide initial support
Requirements
● Suitable for secondary school students in Years 7-9 and 10-12. It can also be delivered in other settings such as sports clubs and youth organizations.
● The course must be delivered to the entire group. For example, to every Year 10 student or every member of a team.
● Teen MHFA can only be delivered when a minimum of 10% of the supporting adults e.g., school staff, volunteers, etc. have completed Youth MHFA training. This helps to ensure trained Mental Health First Aiders are available to support students.
Duration & Format
The course is delivered by 3 face-to-face classroom sessions.
Course Fees
Mental Health First Aid Australia does not employ the instructors that it trains and licenses. Therefore, each Licensed MHFA instructor has the autonomy and flexibility to set their own course fees. Course fees do vary for many reasons which can include course type, individual instructor qualifications, course venue and course location.
21. What can students learn from the MHFA course?
A. Strategies to cure mental illnesses. B. Skills to offer peer mental support.
C. Ways to solve mental crises alone. D. Methods to avoid mental emergencies.
22. Which requirement must be met to deliver the course?
A. Full group participation. B. Adequate medical devices.
C. Permission from parents. D. Medical training for the staff.
23. What do we know about course fees?
A. Schools cover all fees. B. They are officially priced.
C. They vary with situations. D. Location has little influence.

My teacher was one of the people I most wanted to see whenever I visited New York City. Usually I’d call her as soon as I was settled, and it was thrilling to hear her voice and then to arrange a meeting time. But in 2024, when I turned 75 and she was 96, I put off making the call. Each time I thought about phoning her, I feared that when I said my name, she would say, “Who?”
I first met Lore Segal in 1975, when I took her writing class at Columbia University. Back then, all I knew about her was that she’d recently lost her husband. I hadn’t known that when she was a little girl, her family went through a series of ups and downs and that at 10 years old, she was even transported alone all the way to England, where she drifted between different temporary homes.
Small and self-confident, Lore had a pale face and curly hair. She was particular, her whole manner changing when someone expressed something pompous (言辞浮夸的) or emotional. She said firmly that no one ever again needed to describe someone drinking coffee or getting into and out of a car. She also stated that for a reader to remember a particular detail, you had to write it one and a half times, a rule both impossible to follow and true. When she leaned toward a text, I saw the obvious pleasure she took in sharing a passage and felt the pleasure welling up in me.
Lore held student conferences at her apartment near school. When it was my turn, we sat beside each other and she went page by page through my novel-in-progress manuscript. No one had ever before read my work so closely or seen anything special in me. And now came this extraordinary moment: my teacher was reading my words and laughing.
24. Why did the author delay calling Lore in 2024?
A. Lore refused to meet him. B. He was fully occupied with work.
C. He lost interest in meeting her. D. He worried she might forget him.
25. What do we know about Lore’s childhood?
A. She travelled a lot alone. B. She weathered bitter blows.
C. She lived in a fixed house. D. She taught writing in England.
26. What can we infer about Lore’s attitude towards writing?
A. She thought short articles work best. B. She hated all daily scene descriptions.
C. She ignored students’ writing faults. D. She prized plain and meaningful writing.
27. How did the author feel during one-on-one talks?
A. Inspired and valued. B. Shy and awkward.
C. Calm and indifferent. D. Nervous and uneasy.
C
Summer comes, and mosquitoes constantly buzz and bite, leaving red marks and ruining our sleep.
To fight them, DEET (避蚊胺) is assumed to be the gold standard for preventing mosquito bites. Most researchers agree that a key part of its effectiveness is unpleasantness — the bugs just hate to be around it. However, some mosquitoes seem capable of overcoming their revulsion, leading to the theory that the insects might be getting used to the chemical.
Claudio Lazzari at the University of Tours set out to investigate, by running a version of the experiments made famous by Ivan Pavlov in the late 1800s where dogs were conditioned to associate sounds with food. In those experiments, Pavlov routinely rang a signal bell and then immediately fed the dogs. Eventually, when he made the sounds but didn’t provide food, he found the animals still salivated (流口水), as they would before a meal.
In his experiments, Dr Lazzari presented hungry mosquitoes with warm sheep’s blood while being exposed to a gentle breeze of ordinary air or of air blown past a piece of paper soaked in DEET. After many similar repeated experiments, the researchers then bravely presented their own hands to the insects. One hand was covered in DEET while the other was left untreated. To their frustration they watched as 60% of the mosquitoes that had been presented with blood while being exposed to DEET bit the hand coated in DEET. In contrast, all mosquitoes trained with ordinary air avoided it entirely.
Dr Lazzari’s conditioning in the laboratory was important for the mosquitoes in developing their fondness for DEET. But the chances are good that a similar scene is taking place in the real world, where the effects of DEET typically weaken over time, especially when people are sweating or not applying enough of the stuff in the first place.
In such circumstances, hungry mosquitoes are most likely to be able to tolerate the faint smell of DEET, bite a lightly protected person, begin connecting the smell with food and become more dangerous to those they encounter later in their lives.
28. What does the underlined word “revulsion” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Dislike. B. Fondness. C. Desire. D. Curiosity.
29. Why was Pavlov’s experiment mentioned?
A. To prove DEET’s effect. B. To explain conditioning.
C. To honor early biologists. D. To analyze animal behavior.
30. What can we learn about the research from paragraph 4?
A. Sheep’s blood drove mosquitoes away. B. All mosquitoes weren’t thirsty for blood.
C. Ordinary air fueled mosquitoes’ appetite. D. Most mosquitoes were conditioned to DEET.
31. Why does DEET sometimes fail to keep mosquitoes away?
A. Sweat clears DEET completely. B. Mosquitoes associate it with food.
C. Its smell grows stronger over time. D. Human blood weakens the chemical.
D
Traditionally, deep strategic analysis required extensive financial support and massive data teams, giving wealthy footballing nations a distinct advantage. Smaller countries with limited budgets could rarely afford dedicated data scientists or custom analytics software, creating an unfair gap in competitive preparation.
This imbalance will be largely erased at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, thanks to a full set of artificial intelligence tools co-developed by FIFA and its official tech partner Lenovo. The core of this AI revolution is Football AI Pro, a generative AI platform open free of charge to all 48 competing teams across Canada, Mexico and the United States.
Powered by Lenovo’s advanced AI technology and built on FIFA’s tailored Football Language model, the platform processes hundreds of millions of data points from every match. It turns complicated athletic statistics into easy-to-digest outputs: written strategic summaries, highlight video clips, interactive charts and dynamic 3D field visualizations. Supporting over 15 human languages, the AI assistant lets coaches type natural-language questions before kickoff to study opposing teams’ patterns, and after games to fix their own team’s weak spots. To protect independent human coaching judgment, FIFA has set a strict rule: Football AI Pro cannot be used during live match play.
FIFA’s innovation team stresses that artificial intelligence acts only as an assistant, never a replacement for human skill, judgment or creativity. The software can process endless match data, but it cannot copy a coach’s intuition, a referee’s sense of fair play, or a player’s spontaneous in-game brilliance.
Looking ahead, the 2026 World Cup serves as a global blueprint for how AI can make top sports more equal. For decades, cutting-edge sports technology was a luxury reserved for well-funded top leagues and wealthy national teams. This tournament proves that intelligent data tools can be shared universally, letting talent — not financial power — decide which teams advance in the world’s biggest football competition.
32. Why is the AI platform developed?
A. To bridge the divide. B. To maximize profits.
C. To encourage creativity. D. To gain global popularity.
33. What can be learned about Football AI Pro from paragraph 3?
A. It dominates live matches. B. It sets limits on language.
C. It simplifies complex data. D. It determines human judgement.
34. What does the last paragraph focus on?
A. Limitations of AI platforms.
B. Application of intelligent data tools.
C. Prospect of top football teams.
D. Significance of AI-based sports tech.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Football AI Pro: A Game Controller
B. FIFA World Cup: A Highly Anticipated Event
C. Football AI Pro: A Capable Assistant
D. Football Language Model: A Charged Service
第二节 七选五(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。
It used to be simple: if you were stuck on homework, you went to a tutor or looked through a textbook. Today, many students admit their first instinct (本能) is to open short-video apps. ____36____ And here’s the catch: while short-form video makes information accessible, are students actually learning or just scrolling (滚屏)?
Students aren’t choosing short videos to study by accident; it fits the way their brains are wired in today’s world. Studies suggest the average attention span has dropped to around 8-12 seconds. Quick videos match that rhythm. Instead of sitting through a 45-minute lecture, students can learn one concept or definition in a minute. Short videos also turn idle time, like waiting for the bus, into learning opportunities. ____37____
However, for every upside, there’s a hidden drawback that students often feel but don’t always recognize. Short videos sometimes oversimplify — students may remember a “fun fact” but struggle to apply it in problem-solving. Constant exposure to fast content trains the brain to expect stimulation, making complex reading or full lectures harder to sit through. ____38____ Students can end up overwhelmed, recalling bits of many topics but mastering none.
Here’s where it gets tricky. Short-video platforms aren’t built for studying, they’re built for endless scrolling. That means students who go in looking for a “quick explainer” often end up an hour deep into unrelated content. ____39____ Students describe feeling “busy” while scrolling through study content, but later realize they didn’t remember much.
____40____ The reality is, it’s both. Short-form content is a tool, not a replacement. Students who use it as a supplement to traditional learning gain the best of both worlds: quick tips and deeper practice. Those who depend only on it often face burnout, divided attention, or surface-level understanding.
A. So, is short-form video helping or hurting?
B. This makes learning fit easily into daily life.
C. Many creators make money by posting educational short clips.
D. To them, such videos don’t just entertain but feel like learning.
E. Short videos make students unable to finish homework within fixed time.
F. Besides, too many short videos, brief as they are, can cause information overload.
G. This unclear line between entertainment and education makes it harder to manage time.

Now she relies on two carers, ____46____ in a wheelchair. Last night I gathered all my ____47____ to dial her number. Searching for something to say, I told Mom our old dog was deaf, but she just ____48____ a faint sigh and replied with few words. How I longed for her sharp, playful remarks, yet that vivid version of Mom had fully ____49____.
I was too stubborn to accept ____50____. But gradually, I ____51____: my job isn’t to rest on the past but to learn to ____52____. I now must make room for what is calling me — to become the daughter who ____53____ the weak woman and stay beside her ____54____. Those wordless hours are not empty; they hold permanent affection far deeper than our former shallow, noisy talks.

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。
“I can’t see land!” Noah shouted over the strong wind.
I looked around nervously. The storm had arrived much earlier than expected. Dark clouds covered the sky, and huge waves surrounded our small boat. For a moment, we felt completely lost on the endless water.
Noah and I had been best friends since kindergarten. We used to spend almost every day together. However, things had changed recently. Noah joined the school basketball team, and he started spending more time with his new teammates. He ate lunch with them and worked on projects with them. We didn’t argue, but we were no longer as close as before.
Still, when I invited him to go sailing on the lake one weekend, he smiled and agreed. I thought maybe this trip could bring us back to the old days. But the storm ruined our plan.
The wind became stronger. Noah quickly lowered one of the sails, but the boat was still moving too fast. The wide main sail over our heads bit into the storm, grasping the wind’s power, sending us racing forward and pushing the side of the boat ever closer to the water. I held the tiller (舵柄) tightly, trying my best to keep the boat in the right direction, but it threatened to pull itself from my hands. If I let go, I would lose control of the boat.
“No one knows where we are!” Noah cried. His voice sounded frightened.
“We’ll be okay!” I replied, although I was not sure myself.
I looked ahead, but the land was still nowhere to be seen. My arms were becoming weak, and I could hardly hold the tiller anymore.
“We have to lower the main sail now!” I shouted.
Noah looked up and understood what I meant. He stood up carefully and reached for the sail. Just then, a huge wave came toward us. The boat was lifted high into the air and then crashed down. Noah fell heavily onto the floor of the boat.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1: I shouted desperately, “Noah, are you alright?”

W: Well, I’ve always dreamed of being a writer. So I finally thought I should give it a try.
M: But why the countryside? You love city life, don’t you?
W: Yes, I do. But I need peace to write. The city noise was killing my creativity. I couldn’t focus for even an hour.
M: What about money? Writing doesn’t pay well at first.
W: I’ve earned plenty working as a lawyer all these years. Now I can use the money to make my dream come true. Besides, I’ve already rented a small house with a garden. It costs much less than my city apartment. And when I’m stuck for ideas, I can work there.
M: That sounds like a plan.

My teacher was one of the people I most wanted to see whenever I visited New York City. Usually I’d call her as soon as I was settled, and it was thrilling to hear her voice and then to arrange a meeting time. But in 2024, when I turned 75 and she was 96, I put off making the call. Each time I thought about phoning her, I feared that when I said my name, she would say, “Who?”
I first met Lore Segal in 1975, when I took her writing class at Columbia University. Back then, all I knew about her was that she’d recently lost her husband. I hadn’t known that when she was a little girl, her family went through a series of ups and downs and that at 10 years old, she was even transported alone all the way to England, where she drifted between different temporary homes.
Small and self-confident, Lore had a pale face and curly hair. She was particular, her whole manner changing when someone expressed something pompous (言辞浮夸的) or emotional. She said firmly that no one ever again needed to describe someone drinking coffee or getting into and out of a car. She also stated that for a reader to remember a particular detail, you had to write it one and a half times, a rule both impossible to follow and true. When she leaned toward a text, I saw the obvious pleasure she took in sharing a passage and felt the pleasure welling up in me.
Lore held student conferences at her apartment near school. When it was my turn, we sat beside each other and she went page by page through my novel-in-progress manuscript. No one had ever before read my work so closely or seen anything special in me. And now came this extraordinary moment: my teacher was reading my words and laughing.
24. Why did the author delay calling Lore in 2024?
A. Lore refused to meet him. B. He was fully occupied with work.
C. He lost interest in meeting her. D. He worried she might forget him.
25. What do we know about Lore’s childhood?
A. She travelled a lot alone. B. She weathered bitter blows.
C. She lived in a fixed house. D. She taught writing in England.
26. What can we infer about Lore’s attitude towards writing?
A. She thought short articles work best. B. She hated all daily scene descriptions.
C. She ignored students’ writing faults. D. She prized plain and meaningful writing.
27. How did the author feel during one-on-one talks?
A. Inspired and valued. B. Shy and awkward.
C. Calm and indifferent. D. Nervous and uneasy.
【答案】24. D 25. B 26. D 27. A
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了作者在2024年因担心年迈的老师认不出自己而迟迟未打电话,并深情回忆了1975年结识这位老师的经历,展现了老师独特的写作教学风格以及对作者产生的深远影响。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“But in 2024, when I turned 75 and she was 96, I put off making the call. Each time I thought about phoning her, I feared that when I said my name, she would say, “Who?” (但在2024年,我75岁,她96岁时,我推迟了打电话。每次我想到要给她打电话,我就担心当我说出我的名字时,她会说:“谁?”)”可知,作者推迟打电话是因为他担心老师可能已经忘记了他。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“I hadn’t known that when she was a little girl, her family went through a series of ups and downs and that at 10 years old, she was even transported alone all the way to England, where she drifted between different temporary homes. (我当时不知道,当她还是个小女孩的时候,她的家庭经历了一系列的起伏,10岁时,她甚至独自一人被送到英国,在不同的临时住所之间漂泊。)”可知,Lore的童年经历了家庭变故和颠沛流离,即她经历了痛苦的打击。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“She said firmly that no one ever again needed to describe someone drinking coffee or getting into and out of a car. She also stated that for a reader to remember a particular detail, you had to write it one and a half times, a rule both impossible to follow and true. (她坚定地说,再也不需要有人描述某人喝咖啡或上下车了。她还说,为了让读者记住一个特定的细节,你必须把它写上一遍半,这是一个既不可能遵循又正确的规则。)”可知,Lore反对浮夸空洞的描写,强调写作应精炼而有意义。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“No one had ever before read my work so closely or seen anything special in me. And now came this extraordinary moment: my teacher was reading my words and laughing. (从来没有人如此仔细地读过我的作品,也没有人看出我有什么特别之处。现在,这个非凡的时刻到来了:我的老师读着我的文字,笑了起来。)”可知,一对一交流时作者感受到被重视,备受鼓舞。
C
Summer comes, and mosquitoes constantly buzz and bite, leaving red marks and ruining our sleep.
To fight them, DEET (避蚊胺) is assumed to be the gold standard for preventing mosquito bites. Most researchers agree that a key part of its effectiveness is unpleasantness — the bugs just hate to be around it. However, some mosquitoes seem capable of overcoming their revulsion, leading to the theory that the insects might be getting used to the chemical.
Claudio Lazzari at the University of Tours set out to investigate, by running a version of the experiments made famous by Ivan Pavlov in the late 1800s where dogs were conditioned to associate sounds with food. In those experiments, Pavlov routinely rang a signal bell and then immediately fed the dogs. Eventually, when he made the sounds but didn’t provide food, he found the animals still salivated (流口水), as they would before a meal.
In his experiments, Dr Lazzari presented hungry mosquitoes with warm sheep’s blood while being exposed to a gentle breeze of ordinary air or of air blown past a piece of paper soaked in DEET. After many similar repeated experiments, the researchers then bravely presented their own hands to the insects. One hand was covered in DEET while the other was left untreated. To their frustration they watched as 60% of the mosquitoes that had been presented with blood while being exposed to DEET bit the hand coated in DEET. In contrast, all mosquitoes trained with ordinary air avoided it entirely.
Dr Lazzari’s conditioning in the laboratory was important for the mosquitoes in developing their fondness for DEET. But the chances are good that a similar scene is taking place in the real world, where the effects of DEET typically weaken over time, especially when people are sweating or not applying enough of the stuff in the first place.
In such circumstances, hungry mosquitoes are most likely to be able to tolerate the faint smell of DEET, bite a lightly protected person, begin connecting the smell with food and become more dangerous to those they encounter later in their lives.
28. What does the underlined word “revulsion” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Dislike. B. Fondness. C. Desire. D. Curiosity.
29. Why was Pavlov’s experiment mentioned?
A. To prove DEET’s effect. B. To explain conditioning.
C. To honor early biologists. D. To analyze animal behavior.
30. What can we learn about the research from paragraph 4?
A. Sheep’s blood drove mosquitoes away. B. All mosquitoes weren’t thirsty for blood.
C. Ordinary air fueled mosquitoes’ appetite. D. Most mosquitoes were conditioned to DEET.
31. Why does DEET sometimes fail to keep mosquitoes away?
A. Sweat clears DEET completely. B. Mosquitoes associate it with food.
C. Its smell grows stronger over time. D. Human blood weakens the chemical.
【答案】28. A 29. B 30. D 31. B
【解析】
【导语】本文围绕驱蚊产品避蚊胺(DEET)展开,借助巴甫洛夫条件反射对照专项科研,揭示部分蚊子可产生适应性、耐受避蚊胺气味,将驱蚊胺气味和食物建立关联,最终削弱避蚊胺驱蚊效力的科学原理,解释现实场景里避蚊胺驱蚊效果下降的成因。
【28题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段“Most researchers agree that a key part of its effectiveness is unpleasantness — the bugs just hate to be around it. However, some mosquitoes seem capable of overcoming their revulsion, leading to the theory that the insects might be getting used to the chemical.(大多数研究人员都认为,其有效的关键在于它的令人不愉快——虫子只是讨厌待在它周围。然而,一些蚊子似乎能够克服它们的revulsion,这导致了昆虫可能正在逐渐习惯这种化学物质)”可知,蚊子原本讨厌避蚊胺,后来克服的是这种厌恶感,故revulsion意为“厌恶,反感”,与Dislike意思最接近。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Claudio Lazzari at the University of Tours set out to investigate, by running a version of the experiments made famous by Ivan Pavlov in the late 1800s where dogs were conditioned to associate sounds with food. (图尔大学的Claudio Lazzari着手进行研究,他进行了伊万·巴甫洛夫在19世纪末著名的实验的一个版本,在该实验中,狗被训练成将声音与食物联系起来)”以及第四段“After many similar repeated experiments, the researchers then bravely presented their own hands to the insects.(经过许多次类似的重复实验后,研究人员勇敢地将自己的手伸给这些昆虫)”可知,文章提到巴甫洛夫的实验是为了解释条件反射这一原理,并说明Lazzari是如何借鉴该原理来设计蚊子实验的。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“To their frustration they watched as 60% of the mosquitoes that had been presented with blood while being exposed to DEET bit the hand coated in DEET. In contrast, all mosquitoes trained with ordinary air avoided it entirely. (令他们沮丧的是,他们看到,在接触避蚊胺的同时被提供血液的蚊子中有60%叮咬了涂有避蚊胺的手。相比之下,所有用普通空气训练的蚊子都完全避开了它)”可知,经过反复将避蚊胺气味与血液(食物)配对后,大部分蚊子被训练得不再排斥避蚊胺,即大多数蚊子对避蚊胺形成了条件反射。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“In such circumstances, hungry mosquitoes are most likely to be able to tolerate the faint smell of DEET, bite a lightly protected person, begin connecting the smell with food and become more dangerous to those they encounter later in their lives. (在这种情况下,饥饿的蚊子很可能能够忍受避蚊胺微弱的气味,叮咬防护薄弱的人,开始将这种气味与食物联系起来,并对它们以后遇到的其他人变得更加危险)”可知,避蚊胺失效的原因是蚊子将它的气味与食物建立了联系,从而克服了厌恶。
D
Traditionally, deep strategic analysis required extensive financial support and massive data teams, giving wealthy footballing nations a distinct advantage. Smaller countries with limited budgets could rarely afford dedicated data scientists or custom analytics software, creating an unfair gap in competitive preparation.
This imbalance will be largely erased at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, thanks to a full set of artificial intelligence tools co-developed by FIFA and its official tech partner Lenovo. The core of this AI revolution is Football AI Pro, a generative AI platform open free of charge to all 48 competing teams across Canada, Mexico and the United States.
Powered by Lenovo’s advanced AI technology and built on FIFA’s tailored Football Language model, the platform processes hundreds of millions of data points from every match. It turns complicated athletic statistics into easy-to-digest outputs: written strategic summaries, highlight video clips, interactive charts and dynamic 3D field visualizations. Supporting over 15 human languages, the AI assistant lets coaches type natural-language questions before kickoff to study opposing teams’ patterns, and after games to fix their own team’s weak spots. To protect independent human coaching judgment, FIFA has set a strict rule: Football AI Pro cannot be used during live match play.
FIFA’s innovation team stresses that artificial intelligence acts only as an assistant, never a replacement for human skill, judgment or creativity. The software can process endless match data, but it cannot copy a coach’s intuition, a referee’s sense of fair play, or a player’s spontaneous in-game brilliance.
Looking ahead, the 2026 World Cup serves as a global blueprint for how AI can make top sports more equal. For decades, cutting-edge sports technology was a luxury reserved for well-funded top leagues and wealthy national teams. This tournament proves that intelligent data tools can be shared universally, letting talent — not financial power — decide which teams advance in the world’s biggest football competition.
32. Why is the AI platform developed?
A. To bridge the divide. B. To maximize profits.
C. To encourage creativity. D. To gain global popularity.
33. What can be learned about Football AI Pro from paragraph 3?
A. It dominates live matches. B. It sets limits on language.
C. It simplifies complex data. D. It determines human judgement.
34. What does the last paragraph focus on?
A. Limitations of AI platforms.
B. Application of intelligent data tools.
C. Prospect of top football teams.
D. Significance of AI-based sports tech.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Football AI Pro: A Game Controller
B. FIFA World Cup: A Highly Anticipated Event
C. Football AI Pro: A Capable Assistant
D. Football Language Model: A Charged Service
【答案】32. A 33. C 34. D 35. C
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了国际足联与联想合作开发的免费AI平台Football AI Pro,它通过将复杂数据转化为易懂的战略分析,帮助各支球队平等竞争,体现了AI作为辅助工具在体育领域的公平化意义。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Smaller countries with limited budgets could rarely afford dedicated data scientists or custom analytics software, creating an unfair gap in competitive preparation. (预算有限的小国很少能负担得起专门的数据科学家或定制分析软件,这在赛前准备上造成了不公平的差距。)”以及第二段“This imbalance will be largely erased at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, thanks to a full set of artificial intelligence tools co-developed by FIFA and its official tech partner Lenovo. (这种不平衡将在2026年国际足联世界杯上被大幅消除,这要归功于国际足联与其官方技术合作伙伴联想共同开发的一套完整的人工智能工具。)”可知,开发该AI平台是为了消除强弱球队之间的数据技术差距,即弥合鸿沟。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“It turns complicated athletic statistics into easy-to-digest outputs: written strategic summaries, highlight video clips, interactive charts and dynamic 3D field visualizations. (它将复杂的运动统计数据转化为易于理解的产出:书面战略摘要、精彩视频片段、交互式图表和动态3D球场可视化。)”可知,该平台简化了复杂的数据。
【34题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Looking ahead, the 2026 World Cup serves as a global blueprint for how AI can make top sports more equal. (展望未来,2026年世界杯作为一个全球蓝图,展示了AI如何使顶级体育赛事更加平等。)”以及“This tournament proves that intelligent data tools can be shared universally, letting talent — not financial power — decide which teams advance in the world’s biggest football competition. (这项赛事证明,智能数据工具可以被普遍共享,让才华——而非财力——来决定哪些球队能在全球最大的足球比赛中晋级。)”可知,最后一段重点阐述了基于AI的体育科技在促进公平竞争方面的深远意义。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据全文内容,尤其是第四段“FIFA’s innovation team stresses that artificial intelligence acts only as an assistant, never a replacement for human skill, judgment or creativity. (国际足联创新团队强调,人工智能仅充当助手,绝不会取代人类的技术、判断力或创造力。)”以及全文对Football AI Pro平台功能及其辅助作用的介绍可知,文章主要介绍了这款AI平台作为“得力助手”的角色,所以“足球AI Pro:一个有能力的助手”适合作为文章标题。
第二节 七选五(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。
It used to be simple: if you were stuck on homework, you went to a tutor or looked through a textbook. Today, many students admit their first instinct (本能) is to open short-video apps. ____36____ And here’s the catch: while short-form video makes information accessible, are students actually learning or just scrolling (滚屏)?
Students aren’t choosing short videos to study by accident; it fits the way their brains are wired in today’s world. Studies suggest the average attention span has dropped to around 8-12 seconds. Quick videos match that rhythm. Instead of sitting through a 45-minute lecture, students can learn one concept or definition in a minute. Short videos also turn idle time, like waiting for the bus, into learning opportunities. ____37____
However, for every upside, there’s a hidden drawback that students often feel but don’t always recognize. Short videos sometimes oversimplify — students may remember a “fun fact” but struggle to apply it in problem-solving. Constant exposure to fast content trains the brain to expect stimulation, making complex reading or full lectures harder to sit through. ____38____ Students can end up overwhelmed, recalling bits of many topics but mastering none.
Here’s where it gets tricky. Short-video platforms aren’t built for studying, they’re built for endless scrolling. That means students who go in looking for a “quick explainer” often end up an hour deep into unrelated content. ____39____ Students describe feeling “busy” while scrolling through study content, but later realize they didn’t remember much.
____40____ The reality is, it’s both. Short-form content is a tool, not a replacement. Students who use it as a supplement to traditional learning gain the best of both worlds: quick tips and deeper practice. Those who depend only on it often face burnout, divided attention, or surface-level understanding.
A. So, is short-form video helping or hurting?
B. This makes learning fit easily into daily life.
C. Many creators make money by posting educational short clips.
D. To them, such videos don’t just entertain but feel like learning.
E. Short videos make students unable to finish homework within fixed time.
F. Besides, too many short videos, brief as they are, can cause information overload.
G. This unclear line between entertainment and education makes it harder to manage time.
【答案】36. D 37. B 38. F 39. G 40. A
【解析】
【导语】本文辩证分析短视频用于学习的利弊:短视频适配碎片化学习、降低知识获取门槛,但易造成信息过载、消磨专注力、娱乐学习边界模糊,最后提出短视频仅可作为传统学习补充,不可完全依赖。
【36题详解】
上文“Today, many students admit their first instinct (本能) is to open short-video apps. (如今,许多学生承认他们的第一反应是打开短视频应用)”提到学生遇到问题时首先选择短视频应用,D选项“To them, such videos don’t just entertain but feel like learning.(对他们来说,这类视频不仅仅是娱乐,更像是学习)”中的“them”指代上文的“students”,解释了学生选择短视频的原因,即他们认为短视频具有学习功能,承接上文,符合题意。
【37题详解】
上文“Short videos also turn idle time, like waiting for the bus, into learning opportunities.(短视频还能把空闲时间,比如等公交车的时间,变成学习机会)”说明短视频能将碎片时间转化为学习机会,B选项“This makes learning fit easily into daily life.(这使得学习能轻松融入日常生活)”中的“This”指代上文内容,进一步总结短视频让学习更便利地融入生活,与上文构成因果关系。
【38题详解】
上文“Constant exposure to fast content trains the brain to expect stimulation, making complex reading or full lectures harder to sit through. (持续接触快速内容会训练大脑期待刺激,使得复杂的阅读或完整的讲座更难让人坐得住)”指出短视频带来的注意力问题,下文“Students can end up overwhelmed, recalling bits of many topics but mastering none. (学生最终可能会不堪重负,只记得许多话题的碎片,却没有掌握任何一个)”说明信息过载的结果,F选项“Besides, too many short videos, brief as they are, can cause information overload.(此外,太多的短视频,尽管简短,却可能导致信息过载)”承上启下,其中“information overload”与下文“overwhelmed”相呼应,且“Besides”补充了另一个缺点。
【39题详解】
上文“That means students who go in looking for a “quick explainer” often end up an hour deep into unrelated content. (这意味着那些为了寻找“快速讲解”而打开应用的学生,最终往往会深陷一个小时的不相关内容中)”说明短视频平台容易让学生从学习滑向娱乐,G选项“This unclear line between entertainment and education makes it harder to manage time.(娱乐和教育之间这条不清晰的界限使得时间管理变得更加困难)”中的“This unclear line”指代上文学习滑向娱乐的现象,解释了时间管理困难的原因,与下文“Students describe feeling “busy” while scrolling through study content, but later realize they didn’t remember much. (学生们描述在刷学习内容时感觉“很忙”,但后来意识到没记住多少)”中学生时间管理失败相呼应。
【40题详解】
下文“The reality is, it’s both. Short-form content is a tool, not a replacement. (现实是,两者都有。短视频内容是一种工具,而不是替代品)”中的“both”表明短视频既有帮助也有危害,A选项“So, is short-form video helping or hurting?(那么,短视频是有帮助还是有害呢?)”以问句形式引出下文的解答,且“helping or hurting”与下文的“both”形成完美呼应。

Dear John,
As for your dilemma, I’m writing to recommend you rank academic study first, with music as a leisure pursuit following behind.
Solid academic training prioritizes over everything. Without it, your musical inspiration would ring hollow. Besides, important as online fame is, it should never be pursued at the expense of academic qualifications. It is only when a solid academic foundation is guaranteed that your musical talent can truly flourish, for knowledge expands the mind and deepens emotional resonance in your works.
So remember, a well-rounded mind produces timeless art, and a secure future grants you the freedom to make creations without fear.
Yours,
Li Hua

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。
“I can’t see land!” Noah shouted over the strong wind.
I looked around nervously. The storm had arrived much earlier than expected. Dark clouds covered the sky, and huge waves surrounded our small boat. For a moment, we felt completely lost on the endless water.
Noah and I had been best friends since kindergarten. We used to spend almost every day together. However, things had changed recently. Noah joined the school basketball team, and he started spending more time with his new teammates. He ate lunch with them and worked on projects with them. We didn’t argue, but we were no longer as close as before.
Still, when I invited him to go sailing on the lake one weekend, he smiled and agreed. I thought maybe this trip could bring us back to the old days. But the storm ruined our plan.
The wind became stronger. Noah quickly lowered one of the sails, but the boat was still moving too fast. The wide main sail over our heads bit into the storm, grasping the wind’s power, sending us racing forward and pushing the side of the boat ever closer to the water. I held the tiller (舵柄) tightly, trying my best to keep the boat in the right direction, but it threatened to pull itself from my hands. If I let go, I would lose control of the boat.
“No one knows where we are!” Noah cried. His voice sounded frightened.
“We’ll be okay!” I replied, although I was not sure myself.
I looked ahead, but the land was still nowhere to be seen. My arms were becoming weak, and I could hardly hold the tiller anymore.
“We have to lower the main sail now!” I shouted.
Noah looked up and understood what I meant. He stood up carefully and reached for the sail. Just then, a huge wave came toward us. The boat was lifted high into the air and then crashed down. Noah fell heavily onto the floor of the boat.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1: I shouted desperately, “Noah, are you alright?”

Paragraph 2: We finally returned home, safe and sound.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】范文
Paragraph 1: I shouted desperately, “Noah, are you alright?” He lay motionless for a second, then slowly propped himself up, wincing in pain. His knee was badly bruised, yet he forced a weak smile to comfort me. Without hesitation, he struggled to his feet and worked together with me to lower the main sail. Fighting against the fierce wind and rough waves, we cooperated perfectly just like we used to. I steered the boat steadily while Noah checked our condition constantly. Gradually, the storm calmed down, and a faint outline of the shore appeared in the distance.
Paragraph 2: We finally returned home, safe and sound. Tired and soaked, we sat quietly, breathing a huge sigh of relief. The scary experience washed away the estrangement between us. Noah apologized for ignoring me lately and promised to spare more time for our friendship. I was deeply touched. This dangerous sailing trip taught us a precious lesson. True friendship never fades easily, and shared hardships always bond hearts tighter.
