Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
There are countless female scientists who have advanced human knowledge despite facing significant obstacles. Here are some of them.
Dorothy Hodgkin (1910-1994)
Dorothy Hodgkin was a British chemist who pioneered the use of X-ray crystallography (晶体学) to determine the structures of important biological molecules (分子), for which Hodgkin became the third woman to win the Nobel Prize in Chemistry. Her most famous achievements include determining the structure of penicillin (青霉素) during World War Ⅱ, which was crucial for producing this life- saving medicine on a large scale.
Barbara McClintock (1902-1992)
Working with corn plants, she observed that certain genetic elements could change position on chromosomes (染色体), a concept she called “genetic transposition”, affecting the expression of other genes. This discovery challenged the widely accepted belief that genes were fixed in their chromosomal locations, and was largely rejected by the scientific community. It wasn't until the 1970s that her observations were confirmed.
Nettie Stevens (1861-1912)
Nettie Stevens was working to solve a scientific problem that had troubled humanity for ages. The problem was simple but daunting and it touched on how men become male and how women become female. Through her research work, Stevens discovered that chromosomes are responsible for the sex of individuals, animals and every other living organism.
Rosalind Franklin (1920-1958)
Rosalind Franklin was a British chemist whose pioneering work in X-ray crystallography was crucial to understanding the structure of DNA. Tragically, Franklin's work was used by two fellow scientists without her knowledge, who applied it to construct their model of DNA structure—a model that later earned them the Nobel Prize. Franklin received no credit before dying from ovarian cancer.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了四位杰出女性科学家的贡献与成就。

(2026·连云港高二期中)In early 2023, a writer named Jason Colavito posted on social media that a computer was replacing him with AI, because it could write content for free. But he is also wanted — at a small amount of his normal rate — to “rewrite” the AI-generated text. This is not the first time that technology has slashed salaries instead of jobs, and the real problem is not AI. The problem is a culture that devalues human labor.
With the release of new AI applications, discussions about the future of work are back in full force. A recent study looked at professions in the United States, from poets to financial managers, predicting 19 percent will soon lose 50 percent of their tasks to AI. But our precious experience with AI suggests it's much more complicated than technology simply replacing human work.
In 2019, an independent research organization Data & Society studied how automation is being integrated in farm management and grocery stores. Counter to the popular belief that the technology was reducing the need for human labor, researchers Alexandra Mateescu and Madeleine Clare Elish discovered that introducing new devices was mostly changing the nature of the work. For example, automated checkout machines kept employees busy, because they were assisting confused customers, troubleshooting machines, and taking on other tasks to ensure their smooth operation in the store. Most importantly, Mateescu and Elish discovered that the new tasks, which helped accommodate and employ the “automated” technology, were often undervalued or even invisible.
The important thing to understand is that the current deskilling and devaluing of labor isn't because the robots are coming for us. It's a cultural problem. As jobs get disrupted (扰乱) and people's livelihoods are threatened, it's easy to point fingers at technology as the unavoidable reason, whether you're an expert or an employer. But what is actually to blame is a society that is willing to let workers be mistreated. It's a big thing to change, but it's not set in stone. And that's the real “robots and jobs” conversation we need to be having.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇议论文。文章论述了人工智能对未来工作的影响,它并不是来夺走我们的工作的,而是改变了工作的性质。
4.Which word has the closest meaning to the underlined word “slashed” in paragraph 1?
A.Created. B.Reduced.
C.Improved. D.Removed.
B 解析:词义猜测题。根据第一段中的“But he is also wanted...that devalues human labor.”可知,他被要求以比正常费率低得多的价格改写AI生成的文字,这样就减少了他的薪水,因此slashed意为“减少”。
5.What can be inferred from Mateescu and Elish's findings?
A.Humans are still needed to deal with AI-generated problems.
B.Humans cannot understand the real value of their own jobs.
C.New advanced devices are being integrated in various jobs.
D.Automated technology is taking away almost all jobs.
A 解析:推理判断题。根据第三段中的“For example...in the store.”可知,马特埃斯库和埃利什发现人类仍然需要处理人工智能产生的问题。
6.What causes people to devalue labor?
A.Cultural factors.
B.Technological advances.
C.Living pressure.
D.Unemployment issues.
A 解析:细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“The important thing...a cultural problem.”可知,人们贬低劳动是因为文化因素。
7.What's the best title for the passage?
A.A Wanted Conversation: Humans or Robots
B.Robots Aren't Coming for Our Jobs
C.A Promising Future: Humans and Robots
D.Work Gets Deskilled by Robots
B 解析:标题归纳题。通读全文,尤其是第二段中的“But our precious experience...replacing human work.”和第三段中的“Counter to the popular belief...the nature of the work.”可知,文章论述了人工智能对未来工作的影响,它不是来夺走我们的工作的,而是改变工作的性质。因此,B项最适合作文章标题。
Ⅱ.七选五
(2026·济南一中高二期中)When I was a child, my mother battled with me over learning the art of conversation and how to chat with grown-ups. As a shy person, making small talk can feel unnecessary and forced.1.________________ First impressions really do count. People make judgments based on your appearance and how you present yourself in the first few seconds of meeting you. Simply smiling at a person can tell them that you're trustworthy and easy-going. Even if you're stressed about work or your boiler has exploded, your body language matters.
2.________________ Smile, and dress appropriately. A smile is like a warm welcome mat for your face—signaling approachability and friendliness—making all the difference in how people treat you.3.________________ Think about what you're going to wear so you're not stressed over choosing an outfit on that day. Select clothes that make you feel empowered and confident. Remember, confidence starts with feeling good in your own skin, and the right outfit can be helpful in that journey.
Mirror the other person's body language. If you're struggling to connect with a person and have different views, mirroring their behavior can help you.4.________________ Whether you like what they're saying or not, it doesn't matter that much.
Be swan-like. Think of yourself as a swan on a pond. You can sail calmly, but secretly be working hard, kicking your legs at full speed beneath the water.5.________________ You can shake out your tension later with a dance or a bath.
A.Then, how to create the right impression?
B.If you're going to a social event, preparation is key.
C.Body language makes a difference in any social contexts.
D.It's like becoming an automatic printer of their behavior.
E.It's an effective way to bond and make them feel understood.
F.Despite my resistance, I can see Mum gave me a useful life skill.
G.Keep your stress in check, hold your head high and move proudly.

Ⅲ.完形填空
(2026·金华市外国语学校高二期中)As my three-year high school journey comes to an end, looking back stirs up a mix of emotions. There were days of confusion, moments of feeling lost, and the joy of breaking through after being 1 in hopelessness.

Fortunately, since senior year, I've closely 4 class and maintained an optimistic attitude. High school, perhaps, is about constantly learning from mistakes 5 we can face similar problems calmly later.
In late June, the results came out. My Gaokao score was 574 points. There were some regrets—Chinese and history exams were falling short of 6 . But upon reflection, which exam is ever free of regrets? Teachers and family congratulated me. Actually, after three years of effort, most of us go beyond our former selves, and that is 7 .
I accept this reasonable outcome, 8 my efforts paid off. It is often said that university will be easier, perhaps meaning more 9 in time management. But ease is relative. Essential coursework cannot be 10 . Spare time can be used for self-improvement and participating in activities I enjoy to 11 myself.
