(我们希望携手托尼品牌，向大众证明这份温暖的善意——纯粹质朴的人性温情，在当下愈发珍贵；同时让消费者在享用产品的同时，也能为社会带来积极影响。)”可知，本次活动旨在宣扬善意的重要价值，传递温暖友善的理念。 B For years, Shay Taylor walked the halls of Yale New Haven Hospital with a mop and cleaning cart, making sure patient rooms were spotless. Soon, she’ll be walking those same halls with a stethoscope (听诊器) — this time as a doctor. Taylor’s journey didn’t follow a traditional path. After graduating in the top 10 percent of her class at high school, Taylor had the potential to go far, but she lacked proper guidance. Raised by a single mother, neither of them knew about college financial aid or school applications. At 18, needing to earn a living, she took a job as a cleaner at Yale New Haven Hospital. What started as a practical decision turned into nearly a decade of hard, honest work. Then life took a turn that would change everything. After a devastating house fire, Taylor’s mother suffered severe lung damage and began struggling to breathe. Despite repeated hospital visits, doctors couldn’t find the cause and even dismissed her symptoms as psychological. Desperate for answers, Taylor reached out to the hospital’s CEO, whose office she occasionally cleaned. She explained her mother’s situation and asked for help. Within days, her mother got a new medical team and was diagnosed with vocal cord dysfunction, a rare overlooked condition. “If I could be a voice for my mom,” Taylor realized, “maybe I could do this for other patients.” That moment inspired Taylor to become a doctor and advocate for patients who weren’t being heard. However, the road ahead wasn’t easy. She studied college and graduate science courses alone, relying on simple Internet searches to guide her way, all while keeping her cleaner job to save money for medical school applications and exam fees. Her determination finally paid off. Taylor was accepted into Howard University College of Medicine, and recently earned a residency at Yale New Haven Hospital — the very place where her journey started. “I would have never imagined this,” she said. “To come back to the same place — it means everything.” Now, she’s preparing to return as an anesthesiology (麻醉学) resident, ready to care for patients and ensure their voices are heard. And she hopes her story inspires those uncertain about their future. 4. Why was Taylor unable to continue her studies right after high school? A. She had to take care of her sick mother. B. She lacked direction on her educational path. C. Her high school grades were not good enough. D. Her mother knew little about how to pay the tuition. 5. What motivated Taylor to become a doctor? A. Her long-term dream. B. Other patients’ cases. C. Her mother’s treatment experience. D. The hospital CEO’s assistance. 6. Which of the following best describes Shay Taylor? A. Determined and caring. B. Independent and reserved. C. Modest and knowledgeable. D. Sympathetic and demanding. 7. What does Taylor’s experience show? A. Time and tide wait for no man. B. Actions speak louder than words. C. Experience is the mother of wisdom. D. Where there is a will, there is a way. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. A 7. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了谢伊·泰勒高中毕业后因缺少升学指导，成为医院清洁工。母亲就医遭遇误诊的经历，让她立志从医。她一边打工一边自学，最终如愿考上医学院，重返医院任职，也希望以此鼓舞前路迷茫的人。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“After graduating in the top 10 percent of her class at high school, Taylor had the potential to go far, but she lacked proper guidance. Raised by a single mother, neither of them knew about college financial aid or school applications.( 高中毕业时，她在班级中成绩位列前 10%，本有大展宏图的潜力，但缺乏正确的指导。她由单亲母亲抚养长大，母女俩都不了解大学助学金或入学申请的相关事宜。)”可知，泰勒高中毕业后无法继续深造是因为她在教育道路上缺乏方向。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“After a devastating house fire, Taylor’s mother suffered severe lung damage and began struggling to breathe. Despite repeated hospital visits, doctors couldn’t find the cause and even dismissed her symptoms as psychological. Desperate for answers, Taylor reached out to the hospital’s CEO, whose office she occasionally cleaned. She explained her mother’s situation and asked for help. Within days, her mother got a new medical team and was diagnosed with vocal cord dysfunction, a rare overlooked condition. “If I could be a voice for my mom,” Taylor realized, “maybe I could do this for other patients.”(一场毁灭性的房屋火灾过后，泰勒的母亲遭受了严重的肺部损伤，开始呼吸困难。尽管多次入院治疗，医生仍未能找到病因，甚至将她的症状归结为心理因素。极度渴望答案的泰勒向医院的首席执行官求助，而他的办公室正是她偶尔打扫的地方。她讲述了母亲的情况，并请求帮助。几天之内，她的母亲就得到了一个新的医疗团队，并被诊断出患有声带功能障碍，这是一种罕见但被忽视的病症。“如果我能为我的母亲发声，”泰勒意识到，“或许我也能为其他患者做这件事。”)”可知，她母亲的治疗经历促使泰勒选择成为一名医生。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“She studied college and graduate science courses alone, relying on simple Internet searches to guide her way, all while keeping her cleaner job to save money for medical school applications and exam fees.( 她独自学习了大学和研究生的科学课程，依靠简单的网络搜索来指引自己，同时还在维持一份清洁工作以节省用于医学院申请和考试费用的钱。)”体现了极强的毅力和决心；以及最后一段“Now, she’s preparing to return as an anesthesiology (麻醉学) resident, ready to care for patients and ensure their voices are heard. And she hopes her story inspires those uncertain about their future.( 现在，她准备以麻醉学住院医师的身份回归，准备好为患者提供护理并确保他们的声音被听到。她也希望自己的故事能激励那些对未来感到不确定的人。)”体现了对他人的关怀。由此可推知，谢伊·泰勒是一个坚定且体贴的人。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了谢伊·泰勒出身普通，缺乏升学指导，只能从医院清洁工做起，但凭借坚定的意志和不懈的努力，最终实现了成为医生的梦想，回到了最初工作的医院。由此可知，泰勒的经历完美诠释了“有志者事竟成”的道理。 C Every night before going to bed, 27-year-old Nancy Liu places a small, warm device beside her pillow. It breathes softly, responds when she speaks, and remembers how her mood shifts from one day to the next. Liu is not describing a pet or a person, but an artificial intelligence companion toy — a quietly rising product built for long-term companionship. Designed to grow over time, these devices learn users’ habits and emotions, offering a steady sense of presence in moments of loneliness. The rising consumer demand was on full display at the recently concluded tech show CES 2026 in Las Vegas, Nevada, in the United States, where about 60 AI toy and companion robot companies participated, with Chinese enterprises (企业) accounting for more than 80 percent of the total exhibitors. Among the crowd of blinking, talking and rolling devices, one Chinese product stood out. Described as the world’s first emotionally intelligent and “physically growing” AI pocket pet, Sweekar drew constant attention from visitors. “Unlike traditional virtual pets, the palm-sized AI toy can evolve through distinct physical stages — egg, baby, teen and adult — mirroring the passage of time! It also simulates (模拟) body warmth and gentle breathing rhythms to deepen realism,” said Irving Gao, founder and CEO of Takway. AI, a startup based in Shenzhen, Guangdong province. This AI toy’s appearance is a sign of the booming AI toy market. According to data from major e-commerce platform Taobao, transaction volumes (交易额) for AI toys jumped more than 1,600 percent year-on-year in 2025, with this kind of product getting into the platform’s top 10 product lists of the year for the first time. On e-commerce giant JD. com, sales of AI toys last year approached 700 million yuan ($100 million), with nearly 7 million units sold. “Demand is becoming clearly divided across children, young adults and seniors, showing that market education is beginning to take effect and consumer awareness is taking shape,” said Jiang, the market analyst. 8.

Researchers say the breakthrough could significantly improve early detection of lung cancer. Lung cancer is the deadliest cancer in China, largely because many cases are discovered at an advanced stage. Early symptoms are often mild or absent, delaying diagnosis and treatment. Low-dose CT scans are widely used to screen people at high risk, such as smokers or those with a family history of lung cancer. However, CT scans can only detect nodules and cannot determine whether they are life-threatening. Patients must undergo repeated follow-up scans, and studies show that fewer than 30 percent are able to comply with long-term monitoring. Using techniques from synthetic biology and artificial intelligence, researchers analyzed complex blood samples and screened more than 400 proteins linked to early stage lung cancer. From these, they identified 13 biomarkers that are most useful for diagnosis. Eight of the biomarker combinations are newly discovered and perform significantly better than existing clinical standards in China and overseas, according to the team. Results showed the kit detected more than 65 percent of early-stage lung cancer cases, with accuracy significantly higher than traditional diagnostic methods. For small nodules that are often difficult to assess using low-dose CT scans alone, the test increased diagnostic accuracy to more than 85 percent. The blood test costs about 1,000 yuan ($144) and requires only 2 milliliters of blood. Researchers say this makes testing easier for elderly or physically weakened patients, while also reducing follow-up costs. “This marks a major step forward in early lung cancer diagnosis in China, shifting screening from relying on imaging alone to detecting molecular signals in the blood,” Hu said. He added that the team hopes to expand use of the test to community clinics and health screening centers, greatly increasing early detection rates countrywide. 12. What is the key function of the new diagnostic kit? A. To improve the imaging effect of CT scans. B. To reduce the risk of lung cancer surgeries. C. To cut the cost of lung cancer follow-up checks. D. To identify the nature of lung nodules accurately. 13. What does the underlined phrase “comply with” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Stick to B. Give up C. Put off D. Apply for 14. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A. The application of the market. B. The process of the research. C. The standard of the diagnosis. D. The clinical effect of the kit. 15. What can we infer from the kit’s clinical trial results? A. It has replaced traditional diagnostic methods. B. It performs best for advanced lung cancer cases. C. It works better for small hard-to-assess nodules. D. It detects all early lung cancers with full accuracy. 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇说明文，介绍了一项由一支中国研究团队研发出了世界上首款基于血液的诊断试剂盒，该试剂盒能够判断肺部结节性质，包括难以现有办法难以评估的极小结节。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“A Chinese research team has developed the world’s first blood-based diagnostic kit that can tell whether lung nodules are harmless or cancerous, including very small nodules that are often difficult to assess using existing methods.(一支中国研究团队研发出了世界上首款基于血液的诊断试剂盒，该试剂盒能够判断肺部结节是无害的还是恶性的，包括那些使用现有方法难以评估的极小结节)”可知，新型诊断试剂盒能准确地确定肺部结节的性质是良性还是恶性。故选D。 【13题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线词上文“Patients must undergo repeated follow-up scans(患者必须接受反复的后续扫描检查)”及“that fewer than 30 percent are able to(只有不到30%的人能够做到)”及后文“long-term monitoring(长期监测)”可知，由于检测步骤繁琐，时间冗长，因此只有只有不到30%的人能够坚持做到长期检测，划线词与stick to“坚持”意思相近。故选A。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第四段“Using techniques from synthetic biology and artificial intelligence, researchers analyzed complex blood samples and screened more than 400 proteins linked to early stage lung cancer. From these, they identified 13 biomarkers that are most useful for diagnosis.(通过运用合成生物学和人工智能领域的技术，研究人员对复杂的血液样本进行了分析，并筛选出了与早期肺癌相关的超过400种蛋白质。通过这些研究，他们最终确定了13种对诊断最为有用的生物标志物)”可知，文章第四段介绍了这项研究的过程。故选B。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“Results showed the kit detected more than 65 percent of early-stage lung cancer cases, with accuracy significantly higher than traditional diagnostic methods. For small nodules that are often difficult to assess using low-dose CT scans alone, the test increased diagnostic accuracy to more than 85 percent.(结果表明，该试剂盒能够检测出超过 65%的早期肺癌病例，其准确率显著高于传统的诊断方法。对于那些仅通过低剂量CT扫描难以评估的小结节，该测试将诊断准确率提高到了85%以上)”可知，试剂盒的临床试验表明对于那些难以评估的小型结节，这种方法效果更佳。故选C。 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。 When you spend time with close friends, how do you feel? You may feel like you belong. According to the Oxford dictionary, belonging is defined as a “deep sense of acceptance, inclusion, and identification within a group, place, or context.” ____16____ Since the beginning of human evolution, people have connected with others in order to survive. This desire to form and grow relationships is rooted in the human brain. ____17____ In 1943, Abraham Maslow was the first psychologist to write about belonging as a human need. His theory, the Hierarchy (等级) of Needs, states that humans must acquire their basic needs, such as physiological (生理上的) needs and needs related to safety, before they can begin fulfilling other higher, more complex needs, like belonging or developing self-esteem. Another groundbreaking research about belonging emerged in 1995. Mark Leary and Roy Baumeister found that humans have a universal drive to belong, which motivates their thoughts and actions. In fact, this drive is so important that they argued it was a fundamental human need-not a secondary need in a hierarchy. Their later research explored the connection between self-esteem and belonging. According to their research, self-esteem is not just about how people feel about themselves internally. ____18____ Although feeling connected to people is important in many settings, it becomes especially critical in schools. A 2020 research analysis found that students who do not feel a sense of belonging at school are often searching for threats in their environment that signal whether they are welcome or not. ____19____ This, in turn, can cause poorer academic performance. It can also discourage students from forming deeper relationships. So, a student’s feeling of belonging is vital for their learning. ____20____ Researchers will continue to analyze how personality, culture, and even social media shape how connected we feel to others. With this knowledge, people can create schools and communities where more people feel included. That way, we can develop a society that is overall healthier, happier, and more connected. A. They may do things to increase their self-esteem. B. This stress can use up cognitive resources needed for learning. C. Belonging is a complex thing because it is influenced by many factors. D. Over the years, researchers have been exploring this subjective feeling. E. Feeling like you belong can actually improve many aspects of your life. F. It actually serves as a warning signal that measures how much people feel accepted. G. When you see yourself well suited to a specific environment, you feel valued and respected. 【答案】16. G 17. D 18. F 19. B 20. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了归属感的重要性及其相关研究。 【16题详解】 根据上文“According to the Oxford dictionary, belonging is defined as a “deep sense of acceptance, inclusion, and identification within a group, place, or context.”(根据牛津词典的解释，归属感被定义为“在一个群体、一个地方或一个环境中，一种深深的接受、包容和认同感。”)”可知，此处提到归属感的定义。G选项“When you see yourself well suited to a specific environment, you feel valued and respected.(当你觉得自己非常适合某个特定环境时，你会感到被重视和尊重)”承接上文，进一步解释了什么是归属感。故选G。 【17题详解】 根据下文“In 1943, Abraham Maslow was the first psychologist to write about belonging as a human need. His theory, the Hierarchy (等级) of Needs, states that humans must acquire their basic needs, such as physiological (生理上的) needs and needs related to safety, before they can begin fulfilling other higher, more complex needs, like belonging or developing self-esteem.(1943年，亚伯拉罕·马斯洛（Abraham Maslow）是第一位将归属感作为人类需求的心理学家。他的需求层次理论指出，人类必须先获得基本需求，如生理需求和与安全相关的需求，然后才能开始满足其他更高级、更复杂的需求，如归属感或自尊)”可知，D选项“Over the years, researchers have been exploring this subjective feeling.(多年来，研究人员一直在探索这种主观感受)”指出归属感这一主观感受一直以来都受到研究人员的关注，为下文介绍相关研究做铺垫。故选D。 【18题详解】 上文提到“According to their research, self-esteem is not just about how people feel about themselves internally. (根据他们的研究，自尊不仅仅是人们对自己内心的感觉)”可知，此处强调自尊不仅仅关乎人们内心的感受。F选项“It actually serves as a warning signal that measures how much people feel accepted.(它实际上是一个衡量人们被接纳程度的警告信号)”承接上文，指出自尊还涉及到外部因素，即人们被接纳的程度，这是一个衡量自尊的重要标准。同时，F选项中的“it”指代上文的“self-esteem”，使得上下文连贯。故选F。 【19题详解】 根据上文“ A 2020 research analysis found that students who do not feel a sense of belonging at school are often searching for threats in their environment that signal whether they are welcome or not. (2020年的一项研究分析发现，在学校没有归属感的学生往往会在环境中寻找威胁，以表明他们是否受欢迎)”可知，学生在学校没有归属感时，会经常在环境中寻找威胁信号，以判断自己是否受欢迎，这会给学生带来压力。B选项“This stress can use up cognitive resources needed for learning.(这种压力会消耗掉学习所需的认知资源)”承接上文，解释了缺乏归属感给学生带来的负面影响，即消耗认知资源，影响学习效果。故选B。 【20题详解】 根据下文“Researchers will continue to analyze how personality, culture, and even social media shape how connected we feel to others. (研究人员将继续分析个性、文化甚至社交媒体如何塑造我们与他人的联系)”可知，此处强调研究人员将继续分析个性、文化和社交媒体如何塑造我们对与他人联系的感知，由此表明归属感是一个复杂且多元的概念，受到多种因素的影响。C选项“Belonging is a complex thing because it is influenced by many factors.(归属感是一个复杂的事物，因为它受到许多因素的影响)”引出下文，为下文介绍相关研究做铺垫。故选C。 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。 I used to think my grandfather’s workshop was a place frozen in time.

Ever since she was little, she would spend hours sketching (素描) anything that came to mind — animals, landscapes, and even imaginary creatures. When her art teacher, Mrs Reynolds, announced that the school was hosting an art competition, Sophie felt both excited and nervous. It was her chance to show everyone what she could do, but the thought of competing against other students made her anxious. “What if my drawing isn’t good enough?” she wondered aloud one evening while working on her sketch. Her elder brother, Daniel, overheard her and gave her some advice. “You don’t need to worry about the result,” he said. “Just focus on doing your best. Remember, art is about expressing yourself, not about being perfect.” His words made Sophie feel a little better, but as the competition deadline approached, she still felt unsure. She spent days working on her drawing, trying to make every detail just right. She chose to draw a large oak tree in a field, with the sun setting behind it. The colors were vibrant (鲜艳的), and she added delicate details to the leaves and grass. When Sophie brought her finished drawing to school, she saw other students’ work displayed on the walls. There were paintings, collages (拼贴画), and digital art — all of them impressive. She shook with tension as she placed her drawing alongside the others. “Maybe mine isn’t good enough after all,” she thought, feeling small compared to the talent around her. Mrs Reynolds noticed her hesitation and smiled, “Your work is beautiful, Sophie. Remember, it’s not about comparing yourself to others — it’s about doing what you love.” The next day, the school’s lecture hall was packed with students, teachers, and parents for the awards ceremony. Sophie’s heart raced as the judge began to announce the winners. She wasn’t expecting her name to be called, but deep down, she hoped for a small chance. 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。 With every passing second, Sophie sat nervously in her seat. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Walking off the stage, Sophie was greeted with a big hug from Mrs Reynolds. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 With every passing second, Sophie sat nervously in her seat. She stared at her shoes, too afraid to listen closely to the names being read out. Several first and second prizes went to students whose art she had admired greatly. Just as Sophie prepared to accept that she would win nothing, the judge mentioned a special creativity award. “This piece captures warm peace of nature with sincere feelings — the winner is Sophie Williams!” Shocked, Sophie froze for a second before walking up to the stage unsteadily. She held the prize tightly, her eyes shining with joyful tears. Walking off the stage, Sophie was greeted with a big hug from Mrs Reynolds. Her brother Daniel also waved wildly from the crowd with a wide smile. Sophie realized her brother and teacher were right. Art was never a competition against others. What mattered most was pouring her true feelings into every line and color. Later, she kept her award on the desk beside her sketchbook. From then on, she drew without anxiety, simply enjoying the pleasure of expressing herself through art every single day. 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了苏菲热爱绘画，报名校园绘画比赛时却因不自信倍感焦虑。哥哥和老师都劝慰她，艺术重在自我表达而非攀比完美。比赛中，她用心创作的落日橡树图凭借真挚感染力斩获创意奖，这让她豁然开朗，从此放下顾虑，纯粹享受绘画的乐趣。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写苏菲用心创作的落日橡树图凭借真挚感染力斩获创意奖。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写苏菲因此豁然开朗，从此放下顾虑，纯粹享受绘画的乐趣。 2.续写线索：宣布名字→紧张→获得创意奖→苏菲吃惊→苏菲喜悦落泪→苏菲感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①表达：express/convey ②意识到：realize/be aware of 情绪类 ①震惊：shocked/stunned ②喜悦的：joyful/joyous 【点睛】[高分句型1] She held the prize tightly, her eyes shining with joyful tears.（运用了独立主格结构） [高分句型2] What mattered most was pouring her true feelings into every line and color.（运用了what引导主语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高三年级8月检测 英语试题 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题纸上。 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

The fortunate winner will enjoy an immersive stay in the chocolate-themed rooms, as though they’ve walked straight into the world of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Sounds sweet? Here’s what to expect at the hotel The hotel will showcase messages of connection, kindness and inspiration in every corner. Guests will also be given a special two-piece chocolate bar, including a limited-edition white and milk chocolate flavour with caramel and sea salt, exclusive to the pop-up in The Social Hub Amsterdam City.

B For years, Shay Taylor walked the halls of Yale New Haven Hospital with a mop and cleaning cart, making sure patient rooms were spotless. Soon, she’ll be walking those same halls with a stethoscope (听诊器) — this time as a doctor. Taylor’s journey didn’t follow a traditional path. After graduating in the top 10 percent of her class at high school, Taylor had the potential to go far, but she lacked proper guidance. Raised by a single mother, neither of them knew about college financial aid or school applications. At 18, needing to earn a living, she took a job as a cleaner at Yale New Haven Hospital. What started as a practical decision turned into nearly a decade of hard, honest work. Then life took a turn that would change everything. After a devastating house fire, Taylor’s mother suffered severe lung damage and began struggling to breathe. Despite repeated hospital visits, doctors couldn’t find the cause and even dismissed her symptoms as psychological. Desperate for answers, Taylor reached out to the hospital’s CEO, whose office she occasionally cleaned. She explained her mother’s situation and asked for help. Within days, her mother got a new medical team and was diagnosed with vocal cord dysfunction, a rare overlooked condition. “If I could be a voice for my mom,” Taylor realized, “maybe I could do this for other patients.” That moment inspired Taylor to become a doctor and advocate for patients who weren’t being heard. However, the road ahead wasn’t easy. She studied college and graduate science courses alone, relying on simple Internet searches to guide her way, all while keeping her cleaner job to save money for medical school applications and exam fees. Her determination finally paid off. Taylor was accepted into Howard University College of Medicine, and recently earned a residency at Yale New Haven Hospital — the very place where her journey started. “I would have never imagined this,” she said. “To come back to the same place — it means everything.” Now, she’s preparing to return as an anesthesiology (麻醉学) resident, ready to care for patients and ensure their voices are heard. And she hopes her story inspires those uncertain about their future. 4. Why was Taylor unable to continue her studies right after high school? A. She had to take care of her sick mother. B. She lacked direction on her educational path. C. Her high school grades were not good enough. D. Her mother knew little about how to pay the tuition. 5. What motivated Taylor to become a doctor? A. Her long-term dream. B. Other patients’ cases. C. Her mother’s treatment experience. D. The hospital CEO’s assistance. 6. Which of the following best describes Shay Taylor? A. Determined and caring. B. Independent and reserved. C. Modest and knowledgeable. D. Sympathetic and demanding. 7. What does Taylor’s experience show? A. Time and tide wait for no man. B. Actions speak louder than words. C. Experience is the mother of wisdom. D. Where there is a will, there is a way. C Every night before going to bed, 27-year-old Nancy Liu places a small, warm device beside her pillow. It breathes softly, responds when she speaks, and remembers how her mood shifts from one day to the next. Liu is not describing a pet or a person, but an artificial intelligence companion toy — a quietly rising product built for long-term companionship. Designed to grow over time, these devices learn users’ habits and emotions, offering a steady sense of presence in moments of loneliness. The rising consumer demand was on full display at the recently concluded tech show CES 2026 in Las Vegas, Nevada, in the United States, where about 60 AI toy and companion robot companies participated, with Chinese enterprises (企业) accounting for more than 80 percent of the total exhibitors. Among the crowd of blinking, talking and rolling devices, one Chinese product stood out. Described as the world’s first emotionally intelligent and “physically growing” AI pocket pet, Sweekar drew constant attention from visitors. “Unlike traditional virtual pets, the palm-sized AI toy can evolve through distinct physical stages — egg, baby, teen and adult — mirroring the passage of time! It also simulates (模拟) body warmth and gentle breathing rhythms to deepen realism,” said Irving Gao, founder and CEO of Takway. AI, a startup based in Shenzhen, Guangdong province. This AI toy’s appearance is a sign of the booming AI toy market. According to data from major e-commerce platform Taobao, transaction volumes (交易额) for AI toys jumped more than 1,600 percent year-on-year in 2025, with this kind of product getting into the platform’s top 10 product lists of the year for the first time. On e-commerce giant JD. com, sales of AI toys last year approached 700 million yuan ($100 million), with nearly 7 million units sold. “Demand is becoming clearly divided across children, young adults and seniors, showing that market education is beginning to take effect and consumer awareness is taking shape,” said Jiang, the market analyst. 8. Why does the author mention Nancy Liu’s story at the beginning? A. To introduce the lifestyle of young people. B. To show the importance of companionship. C. To share a good way to get rid of loneliness. D. To introduce the topic of AI companion toys. 9. What makes Sweekar different from traditional virtual pets? A. An instant smart voice response function. B. A palm-sized lightweight portable design. C. A clear multi-stage physical growth process. D. An attractive appearance with affordable price. 10. What is Jiang’s attitude towards the future of the AI toy market? A. Optimistic. B. Doubtful. C. Critical. D. Unconcerned 11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. CES 2026: A Key Stage for Chinese AI Products. B. E-commerce Platforms: New Home for AI Toy Sales. C. Sweekar: A Promising New Trend in Virtual Pet Design. D. AI Companion Toys: Booming Market and Great Potential. D A Chinese research team has developed the world’s first blood-based diagnostic kit (诊断试剂盒) that can tell whether lung nodules (肺结节) are harmless or cancerous, including very small nodules that are often difficult to assess using existing methods. Researchers say the breakthrough could significantly improve early detection of lung cancer. Lung cancer is the deadliest cancer in China, largely because many cases are discovered at an advanced stage. Early symptoms are often mild or absent, delaying diagnosis and treatment. Low-dose CT scans are widely used to screen people at high risk, such as smokers or those with a family history of lung cancer. However, CT scans can only detect nodules and cannot determine whether they are life-threatening. Patients must undergo repeated follow-up scans, and studies show that fewer than 30 percent are able to comply with long-term monitoring. Using techniques from synthetic biology and artificial intelligence, researchers analyzed complex blood samples and screened more than 400 proteins linked to early stage lung cancer. From these, they identified 13 biomarkers that are most useful for diagnosis. Eight of the biomarker combinations are newly discovered and perform significantly better than existing clinical standards in China and overseas, according to the team. Results showed the kit detected more than 65 percent of early-stage lung cancer cases, with accuracy significantly higher than traditional diagnostic methods. For small nodules that are often difficult to assess using low-dose CT scans alone, the test increased diagnostic accuracy to more than 85 percent. The blood test costs about 1,000 yuan ($144) and requires only 2 milliliters of blood. Researchers say this makes testing easier for elderly or physically weakened patients, while also reducing follow-up costs. “This marks a major step forward in early lung cancer diagnosis in China, shifting screening from relying on imaging alone to detecting molecular signals in the blood,” Hu said. He added that the team hopes to expand use of the test to community clinics and health screening centers, greatly increasing early detection rates countrywide. 12. What is the key function of the new diagnostic kit? A. To improve the imaging effect of CT scans. B. To reduce the risk of lung cancer surgeries. C. To cut the cost of lung cancer follow-up checks. D. To identify the nature of lung nodules accurately. 13. What does the underlined phrase “comply with” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Stick to B. Give up C. Put off D. Apply for 14. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A. The application of the market. B. The process of the research. C. The standard of the diagnosis. D. The clinical effect of the kit. 15. What can we infer from the kit’s clinical trial results? A. It has replaced traditional diagnostic methods. B. It performs best for advanced lung cancer cases. C. It works better for small hard-to-assess nodules. D. It detects all early lung cancers with full accuracy. 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。 When you spend time with close friends, how do you feel? You may feel like you belong. According to the Oxford dictionary, belonging is defined as a “deep sense of acceptance, inclusion, and identification within a group, place, or context.” ____16____ Since the beginning of human evolution, people have connected with others in order to survive. This desire to form and grow relationships is rooted in the human brain. ____17____ In 1943, Abraham Maslow was the first psychologist to write about belonging as a human need. His theory, the Hierarchy (等级) of Needs, states that humans must acquire their basic needs, such as physiological (生理上的) needs and needs related to safety, before they can begin fulfilling other higher, more complex needs, like belonging or developing self-esteem. Another groundbreaking research about belonging emerged in 1995. Mark Leary and Roy Baumeister found that humans have a universal drive to belong, which motivates their thoughts and actions. In fact, this drive is so important that they argued it was a fundamental human need-not a secondary need in a hierarchy. Their later research explored the connection between self-esteem and belonging. According to their research, self-esteem is not just about how people feel about themselves internally. ____18____ Although feeling connected to people is important in many settings, it becomes especially critical in schools. A 2020 research analysis found that students who do not feel a sense of belonging at school are often searching for threats in their environment that signal whether they are welcome or not. ____19____ This, in turn, can cause poorer academic performance. It can also discourage students from forming deeper relationships. So, a student’s feeling of belonging is vital for their learning. ____20____ Researchers will continue to analyze how personality, culture, and even social media shape how connected we feel to others. With this knowledge, people can create schools and communities where more people feel included. That way, we can develop a society that is overall healthier, happier, and more connected. A. They may do things to increase their self-esteem. B. This stress can use up cognitive resources needed for learning. C. Belonging is a complex thing because it is influenced by many factors. D. Over the years, researchers have been exploring this subjective feeling. E. Feeling like you belong can actually improve many aspects of your life. F. It actually serves as a warning signal that measures how much people feel accepted. G. When you see yourself well suited to a specific environment, you feel valued and respected. 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。 I used to think my grandfather’s workshop was a place frozen in time.

Ever since she was little, she would spend hours sketching (素描) anything that came to mind — animals, landscapes, and even imaginary creatures. When her art teacher, Mrs Reynolds, announced that the school was hosting an art competition, Sophie felt both excited and nervous. It was her chance to show everyone what she could do, but the thought of competing against other students made her anxious. “What if my drawing isn’t good enough?” she wondered aloud one evening while working on her sketch. Her elder brother, Daniel, overheard her and gave her some advice. “You don’t need to worry about the result,” he said. “Just focus on doing your best. Remember, art is about expressing yourself, not about being perfect.” His words made Sophie feel a little better, but as the competition deadline approached, she still felt unsure. She spent days working on her drawing, trying to make every detail just right. She chose to draw a large oak tree in a field, with the sun setting behind it. The colors were vibrant (鲜艳的), and she added delicate details to the leaves and grass. When Sophie brought her finished drawing to school, she saw other students’ work displayed on the walls. There were paintings, collages (拼贴画), and digital art — all of them impressive. She shook with tension as she placed her drawing alongside the others. “Maybe mine isn’t good enough after all,” she thought, feeling small compared to the talent around her. Mrs Reynolds noticed her hesitation and smiled, “Your work is beautiful, Sophie. Remember, it’s not about comparing yourself to others — it’s about doing what you love.” The next day, the school’s lecture hall was packed with students, teachers, and parents for the awards ceremony. Sophie’s heart raced as the judge began to announce the winners. She wasn’t expecting her name to be called, but deep down, she hoped for a small chance. 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。 With every passing second, Sophie sat nervously in her seat. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Walking off the stage, Sophie was greeted with a big hug from Mrs Reynolds. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
