The incident made me realize I’d grown overly addicted to AI suggestions. Researchers name this phenomenon “The Great Smoothing” — AI tools gradually remove all individuality from our writing in pursuit of convenience. My English assignment clearly exposed the problem. I wrote an essay on “Is It Selfish to Pursue Risky Sports?”. Hoping for polished sentences, I used tailored AI writing tools to revise my draft. Though the essay was logically smooth, my teacher marked it as lacking a personal voice. This puzzling result is supported by a 2024 New York University study, which finds essays polished by user-tailored AI tools share repetitive safe phrases, mixing all writers’ styles into uniform text. AI’s influence stretches beyond writing to culture and daily speech. When I wrote about local films and food, AI kept suggesting Western items instead of regional specialties, which is consistent with a 2025 Cornell study on Western preference in AI text. Even worse, many of my classmates overuse AI-favored words in presentations, a trend recorded by researchers at a top European research institute. In the long term, constant training on AI-generated texts will result in “model collapse”, erasing rare phrases and cultural expressions. At first, I only valued the convenience of AI’s grammar correction. Further research revealed its lasting harm — it narrows users’ vocabularies and pushes global users toward standard American English. Surveys show AI footprints widely exist in academic papers, corporate releases, and official documents. Though AI helps people without formal writing skills, it creates a homogeneous (同种类的) writing pattern that weakens individual voices. Now I treat AI as a brainstorming partner instead of a replacement for writing, and I compose all final drafts independently. Schools also provide AI literacy courses to teach students how to preserve their original thinking. I finally understand the core truth: Writing equals thinking. We must never let AI smooth away our genuine voices. 4. Which statement may belong to the phenomenon “The Great Smoothing”? A. AI replaces writers’ lively words. B. AI confirms writers’ creative essays. C. AI keeps writers’ individual expressions. D. AI polishes writers’ personal documents. 5. How might the teacher feel while reading the author’s essay in paragraph 2? A. Amazed. B. Relieved. C. Disappointed. D. Embarrassed. 6. What is a possible effect of AI on language according to the text? A. It will enrich rare regional terms. B. It will limit users’ vocabulary range. C. It will shape personal writing styles. D. It will erase standard American English. 7. What does the author want to convey in the last paragraph? A. AI can read students’ genuine inner needs. B. Literacy courses are the core of original writing. C. Schools should be dependent on AI for real teaching. D. A unique voice in writing stands for true self-expression. 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. B 7. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要探讨AI工具“大平滑”现象对个人表达与文化多样性的潜在危害。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Last week, I wrote down notes about my hometown snacks on my phone, yet the predictive keyboard powered by artificial intelligence (AI) kept replacing my vivid descriptions with plain words. (上周，我在手机上记录关于家乡小吃的笔记，但由AI驱动的预测键盘不断用平淡的词语替换我生动的描述)”及“Researchers name this phenomenon “The Great Smoothing” — AI tools gradually remove all individuality from our writing in pursuit of convenience. (研究人员将这种现象命名为“大平滑”——AI工具为了追求便利，逐渐将我们写作中的所有个性抹去)”可知，AI替换作者生动鲜活的描述性词汇，属于“大平滑”现象。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Though the essay was logically smooth, my teacher marked it as lacking a personal voice. (尽管这篇文章逻辑通顺，我的老师却批注它缺少个人表达风格)”可知，老师的评价是负面的，读到这篇没有个人特色的作文时，会感到失望。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Further research revealed its lasting harm — it narrows users’ vocabularies and pushes global users toward standard American English. (进一步研究揭示了它的长期危害——它会缩小用户的词汇量，推动全球用户向标准美式英语靠拢)”可知，AI对语言的一个可能影响是限制用户的词汇范围。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段中“I finally understand the core truth: Writing equals thinking. We must never let AI smooth away our genuine voices. (我最终明白了核心真谛：写作等同于思考。我们绝不能让AI磨平我们真实的表达声音)”可知，作者想要传递的核心观点是，写作中独特的声音代表真实的自我表达。 C Greenland sharks, the mysterious giants lying low in the deep, cold waters of the Arctic and North Atlantic, are known for their extraordinarily long life — some can live for over 400 years. Scientists have long wondered how these creatures manage to outlive all other vertebrates (脊椎动物). Through a series of studies, they desire to reveal the secrets behind their long life. Lily Fogg, a biologist at the University of Basel in Switzerland, and her team focused on the sharks’ eyes. Examining tissue from ten Greenland sharks, including some up to 150 years old, they found that these animals possess all the necessary cellular structures for vision in the deep sea’s dim light. Surprisingly, the eye tissue showed little sign of aging. Fogg suggests this may be due to highly active DNA repair mechanisms that prevent cell death and tissue degeneration. A separate study of the sharks’ sets of genes also pointed to enhanced DNA repair functions. However, not all organs benefit from such protection. Alessandro Cellerino, an Italian physiologist, led a study on the sharks’ hearts. Examining six Greenland sharks, his team discovered that their hearts accumulate tough scars and cellular damage over time. In humans, similar scarring would indicate cardiovascular disease, hardening the heart and reducing its pumping efficiency. Yet, despite this damage, the sharks’ hearts continue to function effectively. Researchers suspect that protective hormones may help their hearts stan up to some age-related injuries. Catherine Macdonald, an ecologist at the University of Miami, finds these findings fascinating. She notes that any animal with such a long lifetime must possess both repair and maintenance abilities. While studying living Greenland sharks is difficult owing to their deep-sea habitat — they can dive to 2,200 meters, Macdonald believes that understanding their long life can offer valuable insights into human aging. However, she cautions against drawing quick conclusions on human health, emphasizing that these discoveries are just the beginning of a much longer scientific journey. 8. What is the scientists’ attitude to Greenland sharks’ long life? A. Shocked. B. Curious. C. Doubtful. D. Indifferent. 9. What can be inferred about Greenland sharks’ hearts? A. They stop functioning at an old age. B. They age faster than their eyes. C. They are free of age-related injuries. D. They can repair damage thoroughly. 10. What does Macdonald think of the findings? A. They are difficult to understand. B. They lack corresponding evidence. C. They offer conclusions on human health. D. They are invaluable for further study. 11. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. How Greenland Sharks Resist Aging B. How Greenland Sharks Live in the Sea C. How Greenland Sharks Get Genetic Protection D. How Greenland Sharks Keep Healthy for Long 【答案】8. B 9. B 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了科学家开展一系列研究探索格陵兰鲨远超其他脊椎动物的长寿和抗衰机制。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Scientists have long wondered how these creatures manage to outlive all other vertebrates (脊椎动物). Through a series of studies, they desire to reveal the secrets behind their long life.(科学家长期以来一直想知道，这些生物是如何比其他所有脊椎动物活得更久的。通过一系列研究，他们希望揭开其长寿背后的秘密)”可知，科学家主动开展系列研究探索长寿秘密，对此持好奇的态度。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。第二段中“Surprisingly, the eye tissue showed little sign of aging.(令人惊讶的是，眼组织几乎没有表现出衰老迹象)”指出格陵兰鲨的眼组织几乎没有衰老迹象，第三段中“However, not all organs benefit from such protection.(然而，并非所有器官都能获得这种保护)”和“Examining six Greenland sharks, his team discovered that their hearts accumulate tough scars and cellular damage over time. (研究小组对六只格陵兰鲨进行观察后发现，它们的心脏会随着时间推移积累坚硬的疤痕和细胞损伤)”提到并非所有器官都有这种保护，心脏会随时间积累疤痕和细胞损伤，由此可推知心脏的衰老速度比眼睛快。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“While studying living Greenland sharks is difficult owing to their deep-sea habitat — they can dive to 2,200 meters, Macdonald believes that understanding their long life can offer valuable insights into human aging. However, she cautions against drawing quick conclusions on human health, emphasizing that these discoveries are just the beginning of a much longer scientific journey.(虽然由于格陵兰鲨生活在深海环境，研究活体格陵兰鲨十分困难——它们可潜至2200米深，但Macdonald认为，了解它们长寿的机制有助于为人类衰老问题提供宝贵见解。不过，她也提醒不要轻易将这些发现用于判断人类健康状况，并强调这些成果只是漫长科学探索旅程的开端)”可知，Macdonald表示了解格陵兰鲨长寿的机制有助于为人类衰老问题提供宝贵见解，指出这些发现是漫长科研旅程的开端，说明这些发现对后续研究极具价值。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，结合第一段中“Scientists have long wondered how these creatures manage to outlive all other vertebrates (脊椎动物). Through a series of studies, they desire to reveal the secrets behind their long life.(科学家长期以来一直想知道，这些生物是如何比其他所有脊椎动物活得更久的。通过一系列研究，他们希望揭开其长寿背后的秘密)”可知，全文围绕科学家探索格陵兰鲨远超其他脊椎动物的长寿、抗衰机制展开：既介绍了眼组织的DNA修复抗衰特点，也说明了心脏应对衰老损伤的特殊机制，核心主题是格陵兰鲨的抗衰原理，A项“格陵兰鲨如何抵抗衰老”为最佳标题。 D Researchers report that radiation testing suggests solar cells (电池) made from carbon-based or organic materials could outperform conventional silicon and gallium arsenide (硅和镓砷化物) for generating electricity in space. While previous research focused on how well organic solar cells transformed light to electricity following radiation exposure, the new investigation mainly dug into what happened inside the materials to cause drops in performance. Silicon semiconductors aren’t stable in space because of proton (质子) radiation coming from the sun. The researchers tested organic solar cells with protons because protons are considered the most damaging particles in space for electronic materials. Space missions often rely on gallium arsenide for its high efficiency and resistance to proton damage, yet it costs a lot and, just like silicon, is heavy and rigid. By comparison, organic solar cells are flexible and lightweight, and this research aims to explore the reliability of organic materials since space projects prefer proven and dependable substances. The test found organic solar cells built with small molecules (分子) suffered no harm from protons even after three years of radiation exposure; on the contrary, versions made of complicated branched molecules lost half their working efficiency. “We found protons cleave some of the side chains or break them apart, and that leaves an electron trap which worsens the performance of the latter type of organic solar cells,” says Stephen Forrest, the lead corresponding author of the study. These traps grab onto electrons freed by light hitting the cells, preventing them from flowing to the electrodes that harvest the electricity. “You can heal this damage by heating the solar cells. But we might find ways to fill the traps with other atoms, eliminating this problem,” Forrest adds. It’s possible that sun-facing solar cells could essentially self-heal at temperatures of 100℃ — this warmth is enough to repair the bonds in the lab. But questions remain. For instance, will that repair still take place in space? Is the healing reliable enough for long missions? It may be more straightforward to design the material so that the performance-killing electron traps never appear. 12. What did the new research aim to do? A. Develop radiation protection methods for cells. B. Test light-electricity transformation within cells. C. Look into conventional solar cells’ outer features. D. Find out inner causes of reduced cell performance. 13. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The imaginary ways to raise cell efficiency. B. The comparison of different organic molecules. C. The proton radiation test on organic solar cells. D. The drawbacks of traditional space power materials. 14. What does the underlined word “cleave” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Split. B. Fix. C. Protect. D. Harvest. 15. Why do researchers consider creating new organic solar cell materials? A. To avoid harmful electron traps. B. To speed up lab bond repairing work. C. To raise space temperature to 1,000℃. D. To clear doubts about space self-healing. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. A 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了研究人员发现碳基或有机材料制成的太阳能电池在太空发电方面可能优于传统硅和镓砷化物电池，并探究了有机电池性能下降的内部原因及可能的修复方案。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“...the new investigation mainly dug into what happened inside the materials to cause drops in performance(……新的研究主要探究材料内部发生了什么导致性能下降)”可知，新研究旨在找出电池性能下降的内部原因。 【13题详解】 主旨大意题。第二段的主旨句为“The researchers tested organic solar cells with protons because protons are considered the most damaging particles in space for electronic materials.(研究人员用质子测试有机太阳能电池，因为质子被认为是太空中对电子材料最具破坏性的粒子。)”；本段先交代硅和镓砷化物等传统材料的局限作为背景，随后围绕该主旨句展开，对比了小分子电池与复杂支链分子电池在辐射下的不同表现，主要介绍对有机太阳能电池的质子辐射测试。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据画线词“cleave”后面的“or break them apart, and that leaves an electron trap which worsens the performance(或者将它们打断，这就会留下一个电子陷阱，从而降低性能)”可知，画线词与break them apart构成并列选择关系，应含有“劈开、分裂”之意，对应选项中的“Split.”。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“It may be more straightforward to design the material so that the performance-killing electron traps never appear.(设计材料时从根源上避免出现损害性能的电子陷阱，或许会是更为直接的方案。)”可知，研究人员考虑研发新材料是为了避免有害的电子陷阱。 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。 Have you noticed how often you forget even simple things and instantly reach for your phone to check them?

As a senior three student buried in review tasks, I adopted a passive learning attitude. I always put off my study plans until the last minute and disliked sorting out knowledge points or reviewing mistakes. Unsurprisingly, my academic performance remained stagnant (停滞的), and I often felt anxious about my upcoming college entrance exam. My deskmate Jack, a top student in our class, noticed my abnormal state and took the initiative to talk to me one afternoon. He did not blame me for my lazy habits but encouraged me to pull myself together and stick to daily review. “As our math teacher Miss Carter told us, true learning is about steady and effective accumulation,” he said. He also told me that Miss Carter had been worried about my learning state and hoped to help me correct my bad habits and make progress. Jack’s sincere words gave me great motivation. I resolved to change my bad habits and start studying attentively. Strangely, shortly after I made up my mind to improve, my only error notebook became clearer and more detailed overnight, with error analysis and key reminders added to every tricky question. Since Jack always stayed late studying with me, I firmly believed these warm revisions were all his kind help. I soon worked out a detailed daily review plan and started sorting out wrong questions and adding personal reflections in my error notebook every day. To my surprise, those tricky questions were already accompanied by professional analysis and key reminders, which greatly reduced my review pressure. Every morning, I memorized key knowledge points; every evening, I polished my error summaries based on the existing notes in the same notebook. Gradually, efficient learning brought me a sense of achievement. My anxiety faded away, and I grew increasingly confident about the college entrance exam. 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。 Weeks passed, and my steady efforts finally paid off. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ However, I soon found it was not Jack who had added notes to my error notebook. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Weeks passed, and my steady efforts finally paid off. I got a satisfying score in the monthly exam, which made me feel really proud of myself. Many classmates asked me what methods I used to make such rapid progress. I thanked Jack publicly because I thought it was his help that pushed me forward. I believed that the notes in my error notebook were the secret to my improvement. I planned to buy him a small gift to show my thanks for everything he had done for me. However, I soon found it was not Jack who had added notes to my error notebook. It turned out that Miss Carter, who cared about my study, secretly wrote those helpful remarks when I was away. She told me that she hoped I could form good learning habits on my own. What moved me most was that she never wanted me to know the truth. Realizing this, I was deeply touched. I decided to keep working hard and live up to the teacher’s warm expectation. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。高三的“我”学习习惯很差，学习被动、拖延，成绩停滞且对高考感到焦虑。同桌尖子生杰克留意到“我”的状态，开导“我”并告知卡特老师很担心我。之后“我”的错题本莫名多出解析笔记，“我”以为是杰克帮忙。“我”制定计划认真学习，效率提升，焦虑慢慢消散，对高考也越来越有信心。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段句首可知，第一段可以描写“我”月考取得理想成绩，同学好奇进步的方法，“我”误以为是杰克的帮助才获得提升，打算买礼物向杰克表达谢意。 ②由第二段句首可知，第二段可以描写“我”弄清错题本笔记的真实来源是卡特老师，交代老师默默付出的事实，写出“我”内心的感动，最后表明决心，不辜负老师的期望，升华师生温情的主旨。 2.续写线索：坚持努力取得月考好成绩 —— 当众感谢同桌杰克 —— 准备礼物答谢杰克 —— 发现笔记并非杰克所写 —— 得知真相是卡特老师暗中帮忙 —— 心怀感动立志不负老师期许 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①获得了令人满意的分数：get a satisfying score /achieve a satisfying mark ②询问：ask/inquire 情绪类 ①感到自豪：feel really proud of myself /really take pride in myself ②深受感动：be deeply touched/be greatly moved 【点睛】【高分句型1】I got a satisfying score in the monthly exam, which made me feel really proud of myself.

Yuanshan Education Foundation in Beijing, China is a non-public foundation, providing special STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) courses and other high-quality educational resources to primary school students in rural China. The foundation aims to develop the students’ learning capacity and interest in STEM, being committed to using technology to promote the balanced development of education for the students in rural areas through the Internet. The Project Details We independently develop STEM courses through our project. It adopts the co-teacher teaching mode, which allows an expert teacher to give live STEM lessons online, and a local teacher to assist the class and guide the students offline. The courses start with the most urgently needed subjects in the countryside. The project will carry out 12 STEM courses in a semester and provide rural students with experiment materials (four students share one experiment kit). In the class, guided by the two teachers, students will learn knowledge in engineering, architecture, transportation, media, and so on through an experimental approach, which will create their interest in STEM subjects and improve their learning capacities. At the same time, various STEM competitions will be held for students. The History and Need Within approximately 7 months, 80 STEM courses were delivered, covering 12 schools, 40 classes, 40 teachers, and more than 1,800 rural students. This project has also delivered 12,000 experiment kits to the local students. Your help means a lot to us and the kids. In the future, the funds we receive will enable more rural children to take STEM courses, learn science knowledge, and improve their learning capacities.

Where can the text be taken from? A. A financial paper. B. A charity website. C. A research report. D. A travel brochure. B Last week, I wrote down notes about my hometown snacks on my phone, yet the predictive keyboard powered by artificial intelligence (AI) kept replacing my vivid descriptions with plain words. The incident made me realize I’d grown overly addicted to AI suggestions. Researchers name this phenomenon “The Great Smoothing” — AI tools gradually remove all individuality from our writing in pursuit of convenience. My English assignment clearly exposed the problem. I wrote an essay on “Is It Selfish to Pursue Risky Sports?”. Hoping for polished sentences, I used tailored AI writing tools to revise my draft. Though the essay was logically smooth, my teacher marked it as lacking a personal voice. This puzzling result is supported by a 2024 New York University study, which finds essays polished by user-tailored AI tools share repetitive safe phrases, mixing all writers’ styles into uniform text. AI’s influence stretches beyond writing to culture and daily speech. When I wrote about local films and food, AI kept suggesting Western items instead of regional specialties, which is consistent with a 2025 Cornell study on Western preference in AI text. Even worse, many of my classmates overuse AI-favored words in presentations, a trend recorded by researchers at a top European research institute. In the long term, constant training on AI-generated texts will result in “model collapse”, erasing rare phrases and cultural expressions. At first, I only valued the convenience of AI’s grammar correction. Further research revealed its lasting harm — it narrows users’ vocabularies and pushes global users toward standard American English. Surveys show AI footprints widely exist in academic papers, corporate releases, and official documents. Though AI helps people without formal writing skills, it creates a homogeneous (同种类的) writing pattern that weakens individual voices. Now I treat AI as a brainstorming partner instead of a replacement for writing, and I compose all final drafts independently. Schools also provide AI literacy courses to teach students how to preserve their original thinking. I finally understand the core truth: Writing equals thinking. We must never let AI smooth away our genuine voices. 4. Which statement may belong to the phenomenon “The Great Smoothing”? A. AI replaces writers’ lively words. B. AI confirms writers’ creative essays. C. AI keeps writers’ individual expressions. D. AI polishes writers’ personal documents. 5. How might the teacher feel while reading the author’s essay in paragraph 2? A. Amazed. B. Relieved. C. Disappointed. D. Embarrassed. 6. What is a possible effect of AI on language according to the text? A. It will enrich rare regional terms. B. It will limit users’ vocabulary range. C. It will shape personal writing styles. D. It will erase standard American English. 7. What does the author want to convey in the last paragraph? A. AI can read students’ genuine inner needs. B. Literacy courses are the core of original writing. C. Schools should be dependent on AI for real teaching. D. A unique voice in writing stands for true self-expression. C Greenland sharks, the mysterious giants lying low in the deep, cold waters of the Arctic and North Atlantic, are known for their extraordinarily long life — some can live for over 400 years. Scientists have long wondered how these creatures manage to outlive all other vertebrates (脊椎动物). Through a series of studies, they desire to reveal the secrets behind their long life. Lily Fogg, a biologist at the University of Basel in Switzerland, and her team focused on the sharks’ eyes. Examining tissue from ten Greenland sharks, including some up to 150 years old, they found that these animals possess all the necessary cellular structures for vision in the deep sea’s dim light. Surprisingly, the eye tissue showed little sign of aging. Fogg suggests this may be due to highly active DNA repair mechanisms that prevent cell death and tissue degeneration. A separate study of the sharks’ sets of genes also pointed to enhanced DNA repair functions. However, not all organs benefit from such protection. Alessandro Cellerino, an Italian physiologist, led a study on the sharks’ hearts. Examining six Greenland sharks, his team discovered that their hearts accumulate tough scars and cellular damage over time. In humans, similar scarring would indicate cardiovascular disease, hardening the heart and reducing its pumping efficiency. Yet, despite this damage, the sharks’ hearts continue to function effectively. Researchers suspect that protective hormones may help their hearts stan up to some age-related injuries. Catherine Macdonald, an ecologist at the University of Miami, finds these findings fascinating. She notes that any animal with such a long lifetime must possess both repair and maintenance abilities. While studying living Greenland sharks is difficult owing to their deep-sea habitat — they can dive to 2,200 meters, Macdonald believes that understanding their long life can offer valuable insights into human aging. However, she cautions against drawing quick conclusions on human health, emphasizing that these discoveries are just the beginning of a much longer scientific journey. 8. What is the scientists’ attitude to Greenland sharks’ long life? A. Shocked. B. Curious. C. Doubtful. D. Indifferent. 9. What can be inferred about Greenland sharks’ hearts? A. They stop functioning at an old age. B. They age faster than their eyes. C. They are free of age-related injuries. D. They can repair damage thoroughly. 10. What does Macdonald think of the findings? A. They are difficult to understand. B. They lack corresponding evidence. C. They offer conclusions on human health. D. They are invaluable for further study. 11. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. How Greenland Sharks Resist Aging B. How Greenland Sharks Live in the Sea C. How Greenland Sharks Get Genetic Protection D. How Greenland Sharks Keep Healthy for Long D Researchers report that radiation testing suggests solar cells (电池) made from carbon-based or organic materials could outperform conventional silicon and gallium arsenide (硅和镓砷化物) for generating electricity in space. While previous research focused on how well organic solar cells transformed light to electricity following radiation exposure, the new investigation mainly dug into what happened inside the materials to cause drops in performance. Silicon semiconductors aren’t stable in space because of proton (质子) radiation coming from the sun. The researchers tested organic solar cells with protons because protons are considered the most damaging particles in space for electronic materials. Space missions often rely on gallium arsenide for its high efficiency and resistance to proton damage, yet it costs a lot and, just like silicon, is heavy and rigid. By comparison, organic solar cells are flexible and lightweight, and this research aims to explore the reliability of organic materials since space projects prefer proven and dependable substances. The test found organic solar cells built with small molecules (分子) suffered no harm from protons even after three years of radiation exposure; on the contrary, versions made of complicated branched molecules lost half their working efficiency. “We found protons cleave some of the side chains or break them apart, and that leaves an electron trap which worsens the performance of the latter type of organic solar cells,” says Stephen Forrest, the lead corresponding author of the study. These traps grab onto electrons freed by light hitting the cells, preventing them from flowing to the electrodes that harvest the electricity. “You can heal this damage by heating the solar cells. But we might find ways to fill the traps with other atoms, eliminating this problem,” Forrest adds. It’s possible that sun-facing solar cells could essentially self-heal at temperatures of 100℃ — this warmth is enough to repair the bonds in the lab. But questions remain. For instance, will that repair still take place in space? Is the healing reliable enough for long missions? It may be more straightforward to design the material so that the performance-killing electron traps never appear. 12. What did the new research aim to do? A. Develop radiation protection methods for cells. B. Test light-electricity transformation within cells. C. Look into conventional solar cells’ outer features. D. Find out inner causes of reduced cell performance. 13. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The imaginary ways to raise cell efficiency. B. The comparison of different organic molecules. C. The proton radiation test on organic solar cells. D. The drawbacks of traditional space power materials. 14. What does the underlined word “cleave” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Split. B. Fix. C. Protect. D. Harvest. 15. Why do researchers consider creating new organic solar cell materials? A. To avoid harmful electron traps. B. To speed up lab bond repairing work. C. To raise space temperature to 1,000℃. D. To clear doubts about space self-healing. 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。 Have you noticed how often you forget even simple things and instantly reach for your phone to check them? In a world where answers appear in seconds, our memory has started to work differently. Dates, facts, phone numbers, and even personal memories get handed over to devices for safekeeping. ____16____ American psychologists once published an article in Science. ____17____ In an experiment, participants were asked to read and type 40 interesting facts. Half of the participants were told that these facts would be saved on the computer, while the other half were told that they would be deleted.

As a senior three student buried in review tasks, I adopted a passive learning attitude. I always put off my study plans until the last minute and disliked sorting out knowledge points or reviewing mistakes. Unsurprisingly, my academic performance remained stagnant (停滞的), and I often felt anxious about my upcoming college entrance exam. My deskmate Jack, a top student in our class, noticed my abnormal state and took the initiative to talk to me one afternoon. He did not blame me for my lazy habits but encouraged me to pull myself together and stick to daily review. “As our math teacher Miss Carter told us, true learning is about steady and effective accumulation,” he said. He also told me that Miss Carter had been worried about my learning state and hoped to help me correct my bad habits and make progress. Jack’s sincere words gave me great motivation. I resolved to change my bad habits and start studying attentively. Strangely, shortly after I made up my mind to improve, my only error notebook became clearer and more detailed overnight, with error analysis and key reminders added to every tricky question. Since Jack always stayed late studying with me, I firmly believed these warm revisions were all his kind help. I soon worked out a detailed daily review plan and started sorting out wrong questions and adding personal reflections in my error notebook every day. To my surprise, those tricky questions were already accompanied by professional analysis and key reminders, which greatly reduced my review pressure. Every morning, I memorized key knowledge points; every evening, I polished my error summaries based on the existing notes in the same notebook. Gradually, efficient learning brought me a sense of achievement. My anxiety faded away, and I grew increasingly confident about the college entrance exam. 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。 Weeks passed, and my steady efforts finally paid off. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ However, I soon found it was not Jack who had added notes to my error notebook. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
