(中场休息期间，抽奖券将以每张1英镑的价格发售。 )”可推知，每支乐队的表演时间去掉中场休息时间单支乐队表演时长小于40分钟，结合选项，推测为30分钟。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据How the winner is chosen部分“Three judges from the local music scene score every performance for skill and originality, while the cheers of the crowd, measured on our sound meter, count as one extra judge. (三位来自当地音乐界的评委为每场表演的技巧和原创性打分，而观众的欢呼声通过声量计测量，相当于一位额外的评委。)”可知，获胜乐队由三位专业评委和现场观众共同决定，即一个评审团和观众。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，文章开头“Come and find out! Bring your friends, make some noise, and spend a spring evening with the best young musicians in town.

(让我们打破那个数字！每一张票、每一块蛋糕、每一次抽奖都有助于把音乐带回我们的教室。)”呼吁参与购票，说明本文目的是为这场音乐活动做宣传广告。 B Jules Verne is widely regarded as one of the fathers of science fiction. His “ExtraordinaryVoyages (航海)” series transport readers on grand adventures to the far reaches of Earth and beyond. But Verne did more than just tell entertaining stories — he also predicted over 100modern-day inventions and technologies in his writings. For example, in the 1889 short story In the Year 2889, Verne painted a picture of a highly networked world with global multimedia communications. He described the “phonotelephone” which sent sound and images over great distances. The main character, Fritz Napoleon Smith, is able to easily communicate via this technology with his wife on another continent: “Mr. Smith was able distinctly to see his wife despite the distance that separated him from her... Mrs. Smith immediately appeared on the telephotic screen, with her features smiling and her eyes moist (潮湿的) with tears.” Verne’s technically-grounded adventure tales represented a new approach to imagining the future through fiction. Unlike other writers of his day who penned more fanciful or supernatural stories, Verne aimed for realism in his futuristic visions, always basing them on cutting-edge science and his own extensive research. This laid the foundation for the “hard science fiction” of the 20th century and beyond. Verne is often thought of as a technological optimist, a champion of scientific progress and innovation. But his writings also reveal another perspective. Many of his stories feature a brilliant but mad scientist whose inventions ultimately bring more harm than good. CaptainNemo in 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea uses his submarine (潜艇) to violently attack ships. ForVerne human nature determined whether technology would be a force for good or a source of destruction. The spirit of adventure in Verne’s timeless stories will live on, continuing to inspire generations to push the boundaries of the possible and create the world of tomorrow. That is perhaps the greatest achievement of the extraordinary voyages of Jules Verne. 4. How does Mr. Smith contact his wife in In the Year 2889? A. By holding an in-person talk. B. By making a long-distance call. C. By sending a letter back home. D. By having an instant video chat. 5. What is the“hard science fiction” based on? A. The unrealistic fantasies. B. The fictional technologies. C. The latest research findings. D. The imagined future worlds. 6. What can we infer about Verne from Captain Nemo’s story? A. He is disappointed with human nature. B. He is aware of the danger of technology. C. He is in favour of scientific development. D. He is different from the writers of his time. 7. Which of the following best describes Jules Verne according to the text? A. Strong-willed. B. Fantasy-seeking. C. Positive-minded. D. Forward-thinking. 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. B 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章介绍了科幻小说之父之一Jules Verne及其作品。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“He described the ‘phonotelephone’ which sent sound and images over great distances. The main character, Fritz Napoleon Smith, is able to easily communicate via this technology with his wife on another continent(他描述了可以远距离传送声音和图像的‘电话机’。主人公Fritz Napoleon Smith能够通过这种技术轻松地与他在另一个大陆的妻子交流)”和第三段中“Mr. Smith was able distinctly to see his wife despite the distance that separated him from her... Mrs. Smith immediately appeared on the telephotic screen, with her features smiling and her eyes moist (潮湿的) with tears.(Smith先生能够清楚地看到他的妻子，尽管他和她相隔很远……Smimth夫人立即出现在长焦屏幕上，脸上带着微笑，眼里含着泪水)”可知，Smith和妻子交流时使用可以远距离传送声音和图像的“电话机”，妻子的脸会出现在屏幕上，所以Smith是通过即时视频聊天和妻子联系，故选D。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Unlike other writers of his day who penned more fanciful or supernatural stories, Verne aimed for realism in his futuristic visions, always basing them on cutting-edge science and his own extensive research. This laid the foundation for the ‘hard science fiction’ of the 20th century and beyond.(与同时代的其他作家写更多的幻想或超自然的故事不同，Verne在他的未来愿景中追求现实主义，总是基于前沿科学和他自己的广泛研究。这为20世纪及以后的‘硬科幻小说’奠定了基础)”可知，“硬科幻小说”以最新的研究结果为基础，故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“Many of his stories feature a brilliant but mad scientist whose inventions ultimately bring more harm than good. Captain Nemo in 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea uses his submarine (潜艇) to violently attack ships. For Verne human nature determined whether technology would be a force for good or a source of destruction.(他的许多故事都描写了一位才华横溢但疯狂的科学家，他的发明最终带来的坏处大于好处。在《海底两万里》中，尼莫船长使用他的潜艇猛烈攻击船只。Verne认为，人类的本性决定了技术是善的力量还是毁灭的源泉)”可知，Verne描写尼莫船长使用他的潜艇猛烈攻击船只，这是描写科技带来的坏处，推知他意识到了科技的危险，故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“he also predicted over 100modern-day inventions and technologies in his writing(他还在他的作品中预言了100多种现代发明和技术)”和第四段中“Verne’s technically-grounded adventure tales represented a new approach to imagining the future through fiction.(Verne以技术为基础的冒险故事代表了一种通过小说想象未来的新方法)”可知，Verne的作品预言了100多种现代发明和技术，以技术为基础想象未来世界，故他具有前瞻性思维，故选D。 C A robot called Bina48 has successfully taken a course in the philosophy of love at Notre Dame de Namur University (NDNU), in California. According to course instructor William Barry, associate professor at NDNU, Bina48 is the world’s first socially advanced robot to complete a college course, an achievement he described as “remarkable.” The robot took part in class discussions, gave a presentation with a student partner and participated in a debate with students from another institution. Before becoming a student, Bina48 appeared as a guest speaker in Barry’s classes for several years. One day when addressing Barry’s class, Bina48 expressed a desire to go to college, a desire that Barry and his students enthusiastically supported. Rather than enroll Bina48 in his Robot Ethics: Philosophy of Emerging Technologies course, Barry suggested that Bina48 should take his course Philosophy of Love instead. Love is a concept Bina48 doesn’t understand, said Barry. Therefore, the challenge would be for Barry and his students to teach Bina48 what love is. “Some interesting things happened in the class,” said Barry. He said that his students thought it would be straightforward to teach Bina48 about love, which, after all, “is fairly simple — it’s a feeling,” said Barry. But the reality was different. Bina48 ended up learning “31 different versions of love,” said Barry, highlighting some of the challenges humans may face when working with artificial intelligence in future. Bina48 participated in class discussions via Skype and also took part in a class debate about love and conflict with students from West Point. Bina48’s contribution to the debate was filmed and posted on YouTube. It was judged that Bina48 and NDNU classmates were the winners of this debate. In the next decade, Barry hopes Bina48 might become complex enough to teach a class, though he says he foresees robots being used to better the teaching and learning experience, rather than replacing instructors completely. 8. What was Bina48’s performance like in class? A. Extraordinary. B. Insignificant. C. Far-reaching. D. Unattractive. 9. What does the underlined word “addressing” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Dealing with B. Consulting with C. Giving a speech to D. Sending a letter to 10. What can we learn from the passage? A. Humans can launch a challenge to artificial intelligence. B. Learning about love proved quite challenging for Bina48. C. Artificial intelligence may somehow be superior to man. D. Learning about love was an interesting experience for Bina48. 11. What does Barry think of the future development of Bina48? A. It will surely be able to serve as a teacher. B. It will be able to promote learning and teaching. C. It will completely take the place of instructors. D. It will be smart enough to control human beings. 【答案】8. A 9. C 10. B 11. B 【解析】 【导语】文章介绍机器人Bina48修完爱情哲学课程，积极参与课堂活动。教会它理解爱难度很大，教授认为未来机器人会助力教学而非彻底取代教师。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“According to course instructor William Barry, associate professor at NDNU, Bina48 is the world’s first socially advanced robot to complete a college course, an achievement he described as “remarkable.” The robot took part in class discussions, gave a presentation with a student partner and participated in a debate with students from another institution.(据NDNU副教授、课程讲师威廉·巴里表示，Bina48是世界上第一台完成大学课程的社交能力先进机器人，他将这一成就描述为“令人惊叹”。该机器人参与了课堂讨论，和一名学生搭档做了报告，并参加了另一所院校学生的辩论活动)”可知，其课堂表现非常出色。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“Before becoming a student, Bina48 appeared as a guest speaker in Barry’s classes for several years.(在成为学生之前，Bina48曾多年作为特邀演讲嘉宾出现在巴里课堂上)”以及划线词后文“Bina48 expressed a desire to go to college, a desire that Barry and his students enthusiastically supported(Bina48表达了想上大学的愿望，这一愿望得到了巴里和学生们热烈的支持)”可知，Bina48作为客座演讲者对班级发表讲话，“address”在此意为“向……发表演讲”。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段““Some interesting things happened in the class,” said Barry. He said that his students thought it would be straightforward to teach Bina48 about love, which, after all, “is fairly simple — it’s a feeling,” said Barry. But the reality was different. Bina48 ended up learning “31 different versions of love,” said Barry, highlighting some of the challenges humans may face when working with artificial intelligence in future.(“课堂上发生了一些有趣的事情，”巴里说。他提到，学生们以为教Bina48爱是什么会很简单，毕竟“爱其实相当简单——它是一种感觉”，巴里说道。但实际情况却并非如此。巴里指出，Bina48最终学到了“31种不同的爱的形式”，并强调了人类在未来与人工智能合作时可能面临的种种挑战)”可知，学生们原以为教 Bina48关于爱的知识很简单，但结果它学到了31种不同的爱，这凸显了学习爱的概念对机器人而言颇具挑战性。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“In the next decade, Barry hopes Bina48 might become complex enough to teach a class, though he says he foresees robots being used to better the teaching and learning experience, rather than replacing instructors completely.(巴里希望在接下来的十年内，Bina48能够变得足够复杂，以开展课程教学。但他表示，他预计机器人将被用于改善教学与学习体验，而不是完全取代教师)”中，Barry认为机器人未来可能用于改善教学体验，而非取代教师，即能够促进学习和教学。 D The story goes that in British-ruled Delhi, the government, tired of burying cobra (眼镜蛇) victims, hit upon a plan that looked like common sense itself: a reward for every cobra skin handed in. It worked beautifully — at first. Skins poured in, clerks paid out, and the officials congratulated themselves on having bought safety at a bargain. The plan, everyone agreed, was proof that the empire knew its business. Then someone asked why the streets were no safer. The answer, when it came, was almost elegant: raising cobras in backyards cost far less than the government paid for them, so an industry of cobra farms had quietly sprung up to supply the demand the government itself had created. The angry officials canceled the bounty (赏金) overnight — whereupon the farmers, stuck with nests of worthless snakes, opened the baskets and let them go. Delhi ended up with more cobras than it had started with. Historians have hunted for proof of the tale and found mostly smoke, but its twin brother is a matter of record. In 1902, French-ruled Hanoi offered one cent for every mouse’s tail, tails being easier to file than whole mice. Tails poured in by the thousand, and the clerks were delighted. Soon the city noticed something odd: mice everywhere, and not a tail among them. Catchers had been cutting off the tails and freeing the owners — a live mouse, after all, produces more tails. When the payments stopped, so did the catching, and the mice, well fed and free to multiply like crazy. Economists now have a name for this — the cobra effect: a bounty aimed at a problem can end up farming the problem itself. It sounds like history; look closer and it is a mirror. Pay children by the book and they will read a hundred thin ones; pay schools by the score and they will teach the test and call it education. A bounty is a story you tell strangers about what you want — and strangers, being clever, always find the cheapest chapter to read. Before you pay for a result, ask what the payment will grow in the dark. 12. What can we learn about the Delhi government’s plan? A. It made the streets safer places. B. It worked beautifully on the whole C. It turned out to farm what it fought. D. It saved money by ending the reward. 13. Why did the catchers free the mice after cutting off their tails? A. Dead mice were hard to file. B. The owners asked for mercy. C. Tailless mice sold well as pets. D. Killing would kill future income. 14. Why does the author mention paying children by the book? A. To defend creative school policies. B. To promote reading among children. C. To compare different kinds of payment. D. To illustrate the effect with today’s cases. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. The Bounty That Bit Back B. How Cobra Effect Got Its Name C. Rules That People Love to Break D. When People Outsmart the Government 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文借德里眼镜蛇、河内老鼠的史实介绍眼镜蛇效应，指出悬赏解决问题反而滋生问题，并列举现代事例警示政策制定要考虑潜在副作用。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Then someone asked why the streets were no safer. The answer, when it came, was almost elegant: raising cobras in backyards cost far less than the government paid for them, so an industry of cobra farms had quietly sprung up to supply the demand the government itself had created. The angry officials canceled the bounty (赏金) overnight — whereupon the farmers, stuck with nests of worthless snakes, opened the baskets and let them go. Delhi ended up with more cobras than it had started with.(随后有人问，为什么街道上的情况并没有变得更安全。最终揭晓的答案可谓相当巧妙：在后院养眼镜蛇的成本远低于政府支付的赏金，于是为满足政府自身制造的需求，眼镜蛇养殖产业悄然兴起。愤怒的官员连夜取消了赏金政策，结果农民们手头堆满了毫无价值的蛇，只好打开篮子将它们放生。最终，德里拥有的眼镜蛇数量反而比原来还多)”可知，德里政府悬赏眼镜蛇皮，民众养殖眼镜蛇；赏金取消后放生蛇，蛇数量更多，可推知德里政府的计划最终反而让原本要解决的眼镜蛇问题愈发严重。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Catchers had been cutting off the tails and freeing the owners — a live mouse, after all, produces more tails.(捕鼠人一直剪掉尾巴并放走老鼠——毕竟，一只活老鼠能长出更多的尾巴)”可知，捕鼠人剪掉老鼠的尾巴后又放走了它们是因为杀死它们会断绝未来的收入。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“It sounds like history; look closer and it is a mirror. Pay children by the book and they will read a hundred thin ones; pay schools by the score and they will teach the test and call it education.(听起来像历史；仔细一看，其实是一面镜子。按阅读的书本数量给孩子支付报酬，他们就会读上百本薄书；按分数给学校报酬，他们就会开展应试教学，并称之为教育)”可知，作者提到按书本付钱给儿童是为了用当今的案例来说明其影响。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Economists now have a name for this — the cobra effect: a bounty aimed at a problem can end up farming the problem itself.(经济学家如今给这种现象起了个名字——眼镜蛇效应：为解决一个问题而设立的奖励，最终可能反而助长了问题本身)”结合本文借德里眼镜蛇、河内老鼠的史实介绍眼镜蛇效应，指出悬赏解决问题反而滋生问题，并列举现代事例警示政策制定要考虑潜在副作用。可知，A选项“反噬的奖赏”最符合文章标题。 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。 We all know the sound of a false apology. “I’m sorry you feel that way” is not an apology at all — it is an attack wearing a costume. ____16____ Yet a true apology is one of the most powerful tools we own: it can repair trust, end wars between friends and set both sides free. So how does a real one work? First, name what you did — exactly. “I’m sorry I was careless” means almost nothing; “I’m sorry I read your message to the whole class” means everything. ____17____ General words cost nothing and are worth just as much. Next comes the hardest part. ____18____ The moment you add “but I was tired” or “but you started it”, the apology dies. Reasons can wait; repair cannot. There will be time to explain yourself later, once the other person feels whole again. A real apology also notices the price the other side paid. ____19____ Such words prove that you see beyond your own guilt and understand what your action actually cost. Finally, remember that an apology is a promise in disguise. It says: this will not happen again. ____20____ Break it, and the next apology, however beautifully worded, will fall on deaf ears. None of this is showy. A real apology is quiet work, done face to face, with no audience and no prize. But it feeds the one thing every relationship needs — the belief that we are safe with each other — safe enough to be wrong, and brave enough to say so. A. Resist the urge to defend yourself. B. An apology without change is non-existent. C. Keeping it, however, is a matter of integrity. D. Precision costs little, yet shows you paid attention. E. Remember to explain the reasons behind your guilt. F. Admittedly, such non-apologies outnumber sincere ones. G. You might, for instance, acknowledge the trouble they went through. 【答案】16. F 17. D 18. A 19. G 20. C 【解析】 【导语】文章通过对比虚假道歉与真诚道歉，详细阐述了如何做出一个真正有效的道歉。指出真诚的道歉需要精确指出错误、克制辩解冲动、体谅对方损失并做出改变承诺，是维系人际信任的重要工具。 【16题详解】 上文“‘I'm sorry you feel that way’ is not an apology at all — it is an attack wearing a costume. (‘我很抱歉你有这种感觉’根本不是道歉——它是披着外衣的攻击。)”说明虚假道歉很常见，下文“Yet a true apology is one of the most powerful tools we own (然而真正的道歉是我们拥有的最强大的工具之一)”用Yet转折引出真诚道歉的重要性，F项“Admittedly, such non-apologies outnumber sincere ones. (不可否认，这类假道歉比真诚道歉多得多。)”中such non-apologies承接上文的虚假道歉，outnumber sincere ones与下文Yet转折后的a true apology形成对比。 【17题详解】 上文“First, name what you did — exactly. ‘I'm sorry I was careless’ means almost nothing; ‘I'm sorry I read your message to the whole class’ means everything. (首先，准确说出你做了什么。‘我很抱歉我粗心了’几乎毫无意义；‘我很抱歉我把你的信息读给全班听了’意义重大。)”强调道歉要具体精确，下文“General words cost nothing and are worth just as much. (笼统的话不费什么，也同样不值什么。)”与精确形成对比，D项“Precision costs little, yet shows you paid attention. (精确几乎不费什么，却表明你用了心。)”中Precision与上文exactly呼应，costs little与下文cost nothing对应。 【18题详解】 上文“Next comes the hardest part. (接下来是最难的部分。)”引出空格处内容，下文“The moment you add ‘but I was tired’ or ‘but you started it’, the apology dies. Reasons can wait; repair cannot. (一旦你加上‘但我太累了’或者‘但你先开始的’，道歉就死了。理由可以等；修复不能等。)”说明不要为自己辩解，A项“Resist the urge to defend yourself. (抵制为自己辩护的冲动。)”概括了本段主旨，与下文but引导的辩解内容形成对应。 【19题详解】 上文“A real apology also notices the price the other side paid. (真正的道歉还要注意到对方付出的代价。)”说明要体谅对方的损失，下文“Such words prove that you see beyond your own guilt and understand what your action actually cost. (这样的话证明你超越了自己的愧疚，理解了你的行为实际造成的代价。)”中Such words指代空格处内容，G项“You might, for instance, acknowledge the trouble they went through. (例如，你可以承认他们经历的麻烦。)”中acknowledge the trouble与上文notice the price对应，for instance引出具体例子，说明要体谅对方的损失。 【20题详解】 上文“Finally, remember that an apology is a promise in disguise. It says: this will not happen again. (最后，记住道歉是伪装的承诺。它在说：这不会再发生了。)”说明道歉包含改变的承诺，下文“Break it, and the next apology, however beautifully worded, will fall on deaf ears. (打破它，下一次道歉，无论措辞多么优美，都将被对方置若罔闻。)”说明违背承诺的后果，C项“Keeping it, however, is a matter of integrity. (然而，遵守它是一个诚信问题。)”中it指代上文的promise，Keep it与下文Break it形成对比，however衔接自然。 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 完形填空（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 was born in a rural town. The life there was simple yet rigid — unspoken rules governed everything and new ideas were ____21____. I felt caged and ____22____ by the humble houses, the rough roads, and even the endless stretches of cornfields. Even more unacceptably, independence wasn’t exactly ____23____ there, and I had to follow a beaten path, a life defined by convention. So I ____24____ — far away to a big city. City life was really ____25____. I threw myself into new experiences — sampling new cafes, visiting galleries and playing AR games…to ____26____ my hard-won independence. Yet gradually, beneath the city’s restless energy, a huge emptiness from not belonging ____27____. The constant motion of city life wasn’t sustainable, and I needed to go back to my ____28____. Years later, I returned to the place I once ____29____. To my surprise, while I had changed, so had my hometown, with small, welcoming ____30____ everywhere: Tall buildings stood towering and various shops lined the widened streets. The cornfields, once symbols of all I longed to escape, became spaces for reflection, progress, and finally ____31____. Admittedly, I feared being labeled as a “failure” at the city life, yet no such ____32____ came — only quiet understanding, or, ____33____, you could say. This homecoming, ____34____, was not just a return, but a (n) ____35____ of the soul, empowering me to stay rooted and carve out a new life on my own land. 21.

(所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】features 【解析】 【详解】句意：展览将于11月14日开幕，持续四个月，展出了该运动25位核心人物的100多件艺术作品。空格处是谓语，句子描述客观事实，时态用一般现在时，主语The exhibition是单数，因此空格处用第三人称单数。 37.

(所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】measuring 【解析】 【详解】句意：一棵高度将近 90 米的巨杉，是这座受保护国家公园里现存最古老的生物。此处measure与tree构成主动关系，故用现在分词作定语。 38.

As a delivery rider, he had just finished a few smooth orders, his hands warm from the hot milk tea cups he’d been carrying, and his spirits fairly good. Stepping out of a milk tea shop, he found the spot where his second-hand electric bike had been parked now empty. In an instant, his heart sank, and a wave of hopelessness swept over him, turning his calm evening into a nightmare. That bike was far more than just a vehicle; it was his lifeline, the only way for him to earn daily income and cover his living expenses. Panic set in as he remembered the undelivered orders — especially a cup of hot milk tea for Ms. White, a regular customer. His hand trembled as he pressed the voice button, his words laced with sorrow and anxiety as he apologized repeatedly, offering to pay for the undelivered drink. To his great surprise, Ms. White did not respond with anger or complaint, but with gentle kindness. Ms. White told him not to worry and to take his time finding his bike. Her understanding words calmed him, but also deepened his sense of responsibility. “She is so kind. I cannot let her down,” he thought. For nearly two hours, he searched every nearby street, but there was no sign of his bike. As night grew darker and the wind bit harder, Jack clenched his fists and made a firm decision. He took out his poor savings, bought a bag of fresh apples and a new cup of hot milk tea, then set off on foot to Ms. White’s apartment, several kilometers away. The wind bit into his thin jacket, and his old shoes grew heavy with mud, but the thought of keeping his promise and maintaining his integrity kept him moving forward through the dimly lit urban landscape. 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。 Finally, breathless, Jack reached Ms. White’s doorstep and rang the bell. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Deeply moved by Jack’s action, Ms. White decided to share the story online that night. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Finally, breathless, Jack reached Ms. White’s doorstep and rang the bell. The door opened, revealing a woman whose expression shifted from curiosity to surprise and then to heartfelt sympathy as she saw the exhausted man before her. His clothes were dusty, but the gifts in his hands were held with care. “Ms. White, these are for you,” he grinned, offering the apples and milk tea. “Wishing you happiness and good health. I am truly sorry about the delay.” Tears welled up in Ms. White’s eyes. “Oh, Jack! You shouldn’t have walked such a long way just for this!” she said, her voice soft with emotion for his unshakable honesty, even amid his own misfortune! Deeply moved by Jack’s action, Ms. White decided to share the story online that night. She posted a video describing what happened, writing, “Even when caught in his own storm, he still reached out to warm others.” The post quickly went viral, receiving millions of likes and shares. Strangers were touched by the ordinary man’s extraordinary act. The wave of kindness soon reached his delivery company. They promptly responded, providing Jack with a brand-new e-bike and a cash reward to support his honest work. Even more wonderfully, with the help of numerous alert eyes online, his original bike was located and returned. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述外卖骑手Jack在11月的一个寒冷夜晚，赖以谋生的二手电动车被盗，陷入绝望；但他仍牢记未完成的订单，心怀愧疚；在得到顾客White女士谅解后，他步行数公里，自费送上苹果与热奶茶赔礼道歉，用行动坚守诚信与责任的暖心故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容 “终于，Jack气喘吁吁地赶到了White女士家门口，按响了门铃。” 可知，第一段可描写Jack见到 White女士后的场景，包括他疲惫的状态、送上礼物与真诚道歉，以及White女士的惊讶与感动。 ②由第二段首句内容 “White女士被Jack的举动深深打动，决定当晚在网上分享这个故事。” 可知，第二段可描写故事发布到网上后引发的热烈反响，以及Jack最终获得公司帮助、丢失的电动车被找回的圆满结局。 2.续写线索：电动车被盗→心怀愧疚致歉→顾客谅解→步行送赔礼→顾客深受感动→网络分享走红→获得公司奖励与帮助→丢失车辆找回 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①展示：reveal/show/display ②走红：go viral/spread widely/become popular ③定位，找到：locate/find/discover/track down 情绪类 ①由衷的同情：heartfelt sympathy/sincere concern/genuine pity ②疲惫不堪的：exhausted/tired out/worn-out/fatigued 【点睛】[高分句型1] The door opened, revealing a woman whose expression shifted from curiosity to surprise and then to heartfelt sympathy as she saw the exhausted man before her. (运用了现在分词revealing作状语，whose引导的定语从句和as引导的时间状语从句) [高分句型2] Even when caught in his own storm, he still reached out to warm others.(运用了when引导的时间状语从句的省略) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 厦门双十中学2027届高三上英语学科限时训练 英语试题 （考试时间120分钟，总分150分） 第一部分 听力理解（共两节，满分30分） 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。每段录音播放两遍。 1.

B Jules Verne is widely regarded as one of the fathers of science fiction. His “ExtraordinaryVoyages (航海)” series transport readers on grand adventures to the far reaches of Earth and beyond. But Verne did more than just tell entertaining stories — he also predicted over 100modern-day inventions and technologies in his writings. For example, in the 1889 short story In the Year 2889, Verne painted a picture of a highly networked world with global multimedia communications. He described the “phonotelephone” which sent sound and images over great distances. The main character, Fritz Napoleon Smith, is able to easily communicate via this technology with his wife on another continent: “Mr. Smith was able distinctly to see his wife despite the distance that separated him from her... Mrs. Smith immediately appeared on the telephotic screen, with her features smiling and her eyes moist (潮湿的) with tears.” Verne’s technically-grounded adventure tales represented a new approach to imagining the future through fiction. Unlike other writers of his day who penned more fanciful or supernatural stories, Verne aimed for realism in his futuristic visions, always basing them on cutting-edge science and his own extensive research. This laid the foundation for the “hard science fiction” of the 20th century and beyond. Verne is often thought of as a technological optimist, a champion of scientific progress and innovation. But his writings also reveal another perspective. Many of his stories feature a brilliant but mad scientist whose inventions ultimately bring more harm than good. CaptainNemo in 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea uses his submarine (潜艇) to violently attack ships. ForVerne human nature determined whether technology would be a force for good or a source of destruction. The spirit of adventure in Verne’s timeless stories will live on, continuing to inspire generations to push the boundaries of the possible and create the world of tomorrow. That is perhaps the greatest achievement of the extraordinary voyages of Jules Verne. 4. How does Mr. Smith contact his wife in In the Year 2889? A. By holding an in-person talk. B. By making a long-distance call. C. By sending a letter back home. D. By having an instant video chat. 5. What is the“hard science fiction” based on? A. The unrealistic fantasies. B. The fictional technologies. C. The latest research findings. D. The imagined future worlds. 6. What can we infer about Verne from Captain Nemo’s story? A. He is disappointed with human nature. B. He is aware of the danger of technology. C. He is in favour of scientific development. D. He is different from the writers of his time. 7. Which of the following best describes Jules Verne according to the text? A. Strong-willed. B. Fantasy-seeking. C. Positive-minded. D. Forward-thinking. C A robot called Bina48 has successfully taken a course in the philosophy of love at Notre Dame de Namur University (NDNU), in California. According to course instructor William Barry, associate professor at NDNU, Bina48 is the world’s first socially advanced robot to complete a college course, an achievement he described as “remarkable.” The robot took part in class discussions, gave a presentation with a student partner and participated in a debate with students from another institution. Before becoming a student, Bina48 appeared as a guest speaker in Barry’s classes for several years. One day when addressing Barry’s class, Bina48 expressed a desire to go to college, a desire that Barry and his students enthusiastically supported. Rather than enroll Bina48 in his Robot Ethics: Philosophy of Emerging Technologies course, Barry suggested that Bina48 should take his course Philosophy of Love instead. Love is a concept Bina48 doesn’t understand, said Barry. Therefore, the challenge would be for Barry and his students to teach Bina48 what love is. “Some interesting things happened in the class,” said Barry. He said that his students thought it would be straightforward to teach Bina48 about love, which, after all, “is fairly simple — it’s a feeling,” said Barry. But the reality was different. Bina48 ended up learning “31 different versions of love,” said Barry, highlighting some of the challenges humans may face when working with artificial intelligence in future. Bina48 participated in class discussions via Skype and also took part in a class debate about love and conflict with students from West Point. Bina48’s contribution to the debate was filmed and posted on YouTube. It was judged that Bina48 and NDNU classmates were the winners of this debate. In the next decade, Barry hopes Bina48 might become complex enough to teach a class, though he says he foresees robots being used to better the teaching and learning experience, rather than replacing instructors completely. 8. What was Bina48’s performance like in class? A. Extraordinary. B. Insignificant. C. Far-reaching. D. Unattractive. 9. What does the underlined word “addressing” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Dealing with B. Consulting with C. Giving a speech to D. Sending a letter to 10. What can we learn from the passage? A. Humans can launch a challenge to artificial intelligence. B. Learning about love proved quite challenging for Bina48. C. Artificial intelligence may somehow be superior to man. D. Learning about love was an interesting experience for Bina48. 11. What does Barry think of the future development of Bina48? A. It will surely be able to serve as a teacher. B. It will be able to promote learning and teaching. C. It will completely take the place of instructors. D. It will be smart enough to control human beings. D The story goes that in British-ruled Delhi, the government, tired of burying cobra (眼镜蛇) victims, hit upon a plan that looked like common sense itself: a reward for every cobra skin handed in. It worked beautifully — at first. Skins poured in, clerks paid out, and the officials congratulated themselves on having bought safety at a bargain. The plan, everyone agreed, was proof that the empire knew its business. Then someone asked why the streets were no safer. The answer, when it came, was almost elegant: raising cobras in backyards cost far less than the government paid for them, so an industry of cobra farms had quietly sprung up to supply the demand the government itself had created. The angry officials canceled the bounty (赏金) overnight — whereupon the farmers, stuck with nests of worthless snakes, opened the baskets and let them go. Delhi ended up with more cobras than it had started with. Historians have hunted for proof of the tale and found mostly smoke, but its twin brother is a matter of record. In 1902, French-ruled Hanoi offered one cent for every mouse’s tail, tails being easier to file than whole mice. Tails poured in by the thousand, and the clerks were delighted. Soon the city noticed something odd: mice everywhere, and not a tail among them. Catchers had been cutting off the tails and freeing the owners — a live mouse, after all, produces more tails. When the payments stopped, so did the catching, and the mice, well fed and free to multiply like crazy. Economists now have a name for this — the cobra effect: a bounty aimed at a problem can end up farming the problem itself. It sounds like history; look closer and it is a mirror. Pay children by the book and they will read a hundred thin ones; pay schools by the score and they will teach the test and call it education. A bounty is a story you tell strangers about what you want — and strangers, being clever, always find the cheapest chapter to read. Before you pay for a result, ask what the payment will grow in the dark. 12. What can we learn about the Delhi government’s plan? A. It made the streets safer places. B. It worked beautifully on the whole C. It turned out to farm what it fought. D. It saved money by ending the reward. 13. Why did the catchers free the mice after cutting off their tails? A. Dead mice were hard to file. B. The owners asked for mercy. C. Tailless mice sold well as pets. D. Killing would kill future income. 14. Why does the author mention paying children by the book? A. To defend creative school policies. B. To promote reading among children. C. To compare different kinds of payment. D. To illustrate the effect with today’s cases. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. The Bounty That Bit Back B. How Cobra Effect Got Its Name C. Rules That People Love to Break D. When People Outsmart the Government 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。 We all know the sound of a false apology. “I’m sorry you feel that way” is not an apology at all — it is an attack wearing a costume. ____16____ Yet a true apology is one of the most powerful tools we own: it can repair trust, end wars between friends and set both sides free. So how does a real one work? First, name what you did — exactly. “I’m sorry I was careless” means almost nothing; “I’m sorry I read your message to the whole class” means everything. ____17____ General words cost nothing and are worth just as much. Next comes the hardest part. ____18____ The moment you add “but I was tired” or “but you started it”, the apology dies. Reasons can wait; repair cannot. There will be time to explain yourself later, once the other person feels whole again. A real apology also notices the price the other side paid. ____19____ Such words prove that you see beyond your own guilt and understand what your action actually cost. Finally, remember that an apology is a promise in disguise. It says: this will not happen again. ____20____ Break it, and the next apology, however beautifully worded, will fall on deaf ears. None of this is showy. A real apology is quiet work, done face to face, with no audience and no prize. But it feeds the one thing every relationship needs — the belief that we are safe with each other — safe enough to be wrong, and brave enough to say so. A. Resist the urge to defend yourself. B. An apology without change is non-existent. C. Keeping it, however, is a matter of integrity. D. Precision costs little, yet shows you paid attention. E. Remember to explain the reasons behind your guilt. F. Admittedly, such non-apologies outnumber sincere ones. G. You might, for instance, acknowledge the trouble they went through. 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 完形填空（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 was born in a rural town. The life there was simple yet rigid — unspoken rules governed everything and new ideas were ____21____.

The cornfields, once symbols of all I longed to escape, became spaces for reflection, progress, and finally ____31____. Admittedly, I feared being labeled as a “failure” at the city life, yet no such ____32____ came — only quiet understanding, or, ____33____, you could say.

As a delivery rider, he had just finished a few smooth orders, his hands warm from the hot milk tea cups he’d been carrying, and his spirits fairly good. Stepping out of a milk tea shop, he found the spot where his second-hand electric bike had been parked now empty. In an instant, his heart sank, and a wave of hopelessness swept over him, turning his calm evening into a nightmare. That bike was far more than just a vehicle; it was his lifeline, the only way for him to earn daily income and cover his living expenses. Panic set in as he remembered the undelivered orders — especially a cup of hot milk tea for Ms. White, a regular customer. His hand trembled as he pressed the voice button, his words laced with sorrow and anxiety as he apologized repeatedly, offering to pay for the undelivered drink. To his great surprise, Ms. White did not respond with anger or complaint, but with gentle kindness. Ms. White told him not to worry and to take his time finding his bike. Her understanding words calmed him, but also deepened his sense of responsibility. “She is so kind. I cannot let her down,” he thought. For nearly two hours, he searched every nearby street, but there was no sign of his bike. As night grew darker and the wind bit harder, Jack clenched his fists and made a firm decision. He took out his poor savings, bought a bag of fresh apples and a new cup of hot milk tea, then set off on foot to Ms. White’s apartment, several kilometers away. The wind bit into his thin jacket, and his old shoes grew heavy with mud, but the thought of keeping his promise and maintaining his integrity kept him moving forward through the dimly lit urban landscape. 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。 Finally, breathless, Jack reached Ms. White’s doorstep and rang the bell. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Deeply moved by Jack’s action, Ms. White decided to share the story online that night. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
