D　25. D　26. C 【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述Merebeth从事的新工作。近十年来，她一直是一名自营宠物运输专家。 24. 推理判断题。根据第一段中“The downturn hit the real estate（房地产）firm where she had worked for ten years as an office manager. The firm went broke and left her looking for a new job.（她曾在一家房地产公司做了10年的办公室经理，经济低迷打击了这家公司。公司破产了，她只好另寻新工作）”，可知，Merebeth之所以换工作，是因为她以前的雇主破产了。故选D。 25. 词义猜测题。根据第二段中“It has taken her to every state in the US except Montana, Washington and Oregon, she says proudly. If she wants to visit a new place, she will simply find a pet with transport needs there. She travels in all weathers.（她自豪地说，除了蒙大拿州、华盛顿州和俄勒冈州，她走遍了美国所有的州。如果她想去一个新的地方，她只需要找到一个有交通需要的宠物。她风雨无阻地旅行）”，可知，划线词的意思是“渴望去不同的地方旅行”。故选D。 26. 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“When I am on the road, I'm just in my own world. I've always been independent-spirited and I just feel strongly that I must help animals.（当我在路上的时候，我只是在自己的世界里。我一直很独立，我强烈地觉得我必须帮助动物）”，可知，Merebeth在她的新工作中一直都是靠自己。故选C。 【答案】27. A　28. C　29. B　30. D 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了人工智能机器人ChatGPT的相关信息。 27. 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“There's a new AI bot in town: ChatGPT, and you'd better pay attention, even if you aren't into artificial intelligence. ChatGPT is an AI chatbot system that OpenAI released in November to show off and test what a very large, powerful AI system can accomplish. You can ask it countless questions and often will get an answer that's useful.(有一个新的人工智能机器人在城里:ChatGPT，你最好关注一下，即使你不喜欢人工智能。ChatGPT是OpenAI在11月发布的一款AI聊天机器人系统，旨在展示和测试一个非常强大的AI系统可以完成的任务。你可以问它无数的问题，通常会得到一个有用的答案)”可知，什么是ChatGPT可以作为第一段的副标题。故选A。 28. 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“ChatGPT is a big deal. The tool seems pretty knowledgeable in areas where there's good training data for it to learn from. It's not all-knowing or smart enough to replace all humans yet, but it can be creative, and its answers can sound downright authoritative.(ChatGPT是一个重要的事物。这个工具在有好的训练数据供它学习的领域似乎很有知识。它还不是无所不知或聪明到足以取代所有人类，但它可以很有创造力，它的答案听起来完全是权威的)”可知，ChatGPT生成创造性答案的能力使它成为一个重要的事物。故选C。 29. 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Sometimes, helpfully, it'll specifically warn you of its own shortcomings. For example, when I asked it who wrote the phrase "the squirming facts exceed the squamous mind," ChatGPT replied, "I'm sorry, but I am not able to browse the internet or access any external information beyond what I was trained on."(The phrase is from Wallace Stevens' 1942 poem Connoisseur of Chaos.)(有时，它会特别提醒你它自己的缺点。例如，当我问它是谁写了“扭曲的事实超过了鳞状的头脑”这句话时，ChatGPT回答说:“很抱歉，我不能浏览互联网，也不能访问任何超出我所接受培训的外部信息。(这句话出自华莱士·史蒂文斯1942年的诗《混沌鉴赏家》。)”)”可知，第三段的例子是为了揭示ChatGPT的弱点。故选B。 30. 推理判断题。文章既讲ChatGPT强大、有创造力，也指出它会出错、有局限性，好坏两面都陈述，不带褒贬，是客观态度。 A反对；B批判；C支持，均不对。D篇阅读 【答案】31. C　32. A　33. B　34. D 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。先天和后天这两个术语自16世纪以来一直是比较的主题。文章论述了究竟是先天还是后天造就了我们。 31. 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Nature provides the starting point for an organism that will interact with nurture, the environment, during the organism's life. Nature does not just affect an organism during its lifetime, but it also can directly affect the expression of genes in offspring (后代).(在有机体的一生中，先天为有机体提供了与滋养、环境相互作用的起点。先天不仅会影响一个生物体的一生，还会直接影响其后代的基因表达)”可知，先天影响后代的基因表达。故选C。 32. 主旨大意题。根据第三段“Nurture refers to the conditions under which living things grow and develop after birth. When applied to human beings, it means how the person is raised, which includes nutrition, education, care, as well as the kind of surroundings, such as cultural influence, family and friends.(后天指的是生物出生后生长发育的条件。当应用于人类时，它指的是一个人是如何成长的，包括营养、教育、照顾，以及环境的类型，如文化影响、家庭和朋友)”可知，第三段主要讨论了后天对人类意味着什么。故选A。 33. 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“While nurture undeniably plays its part on the growth and development of one's personality, nature dramatically outweighs nurture, for nature can be likened to a foundation. The impact of nurture on the development of persons cannot be totally denied. However, nature is regarded as being of most importance because of the fact that it affords an opportunity and creates a foundation and the basis for the question of nurture to arise at the very first instance.(不可否认，后天培养在一个人的个性成长和发展中起着一定的作用，但先天的作用远远超过后天培养，因为先天可以被比作基础。后天对人的发展的影响是不能完全否认的。然而，先天被认为是最重要的，因为它提供了一个机会，创造了一个基础，为后天问题的出现提供了基础)”可推知，作者通过对比强调了先天的重要性。故选B。 34. 主旨大意题。根据第一段“The two terms nature and nurture have been subjects of comparison since the 16th century. The argument is centered on the question as to whether it is nature or nurture that makes us who we are.(先天和后天这两个术语自16世纪以来一直是比较的主题。争论的核心问题是，究竟是先天还是后天造就了我们)”及下文论述可知，文章主要论述了究竟是先天还是后天造就了我们。由此可知，Which Is More Important, Nature or Nurture?(先天和后天，哪个更重要？)适合作文章最佳标题。故选D。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 【答案】35. F　36. D　37. E　38. A　39. G 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述的是如何训练自己的一些小习惯，让自己也成为一个富有成效的人。 35. 根据空前的“Productive people have one thing in common: a solid routine consisting of small habits that help them to keep a healthy mindset and lifestyle.(富有成效的人有一个共同点：由小习惯组成的坚实的日常常规，帮助他们保持健康的心态和生活方式)”可知，富有成效的人都是一些小习惯组成的坚实的日常常规，根据空后的“Research has shown that a habit takes approximately 21 days to become normal behavior.(研究表明，一个习惯大约需要21天才能成为正常行为)”可知，形成一个正常的行为需要21天，由此可推断，此处讲述的是要成为一个富有成效的人需要花费的时间。F选项“For many of them, it doesn’t take long to integrate into their routine(对于他们中的许多人来说，融入他们的日常生活并不需要很长时间)”可知，形成这一套惯例不需要很久，承接空前与空后的内容，符合题意。故选F项。 36. 根据空前的“The most effective way of staying productive is to wake up at the same time every day, even on the weekends.(保持工作效率的最有效方法是每天在同一时间醒来，即使在周末也是如此)”可知，每天在同一时间起床是最好的方法，D选项“This helps your body maintain its biorhythm(这有助于您的身体保持其生物节律)”中的保持身体的生物节奏与每天同时间起床的结果，符合逻辑，内容相吻合。故选D项。 37. 根据该段的小标题“Make daily to-do lists(制作每日待办事项清单)”可知，本段主要讲述的与列一个日常待办清单相关，E选项“Making a list of priorities for the day helps you to stay on track(列出当天的优先事项可帮助您保持正轨)”讲述的内容是列日常待办清单的好处，与本段主题内容相符。故选E项。 38. 分析语篇可知，此空为本段的小标题，所以与其它段落的小标题句式相同，均为祈使句，根据该段首句“Writing down and organizing your thoughts can help you to track and achieve goals.(写下和组织你的想法可以帮助你跟踪和实现目标)”可知，记录自己的想法有助于跟踪和实现自己的目标，所以本段的主题与“记录内容”相关，A选项“Keep a journal(记日记)”为祈使句，同时讲述的内容与本段主题一致。故选A项。 39. 根据空格所处的位置在段尾，应是对该段内容的总结，且根据第四题可知，本段讲述的内容与记录相关，所以该空内容仍与此相关，G选项“The process of recording will help you to reflect and boost brain function(记录过程将帮助您反思和增强大脑功能)”讲述的是记录的过程给大脑带来的好处，与本段内容吻合，且是该段的内容做出总结，符合题意。故选G项。 第三部分 书面表达（共两节，32分） 【40~43题答案】 【答案】 40. He defines judgment as the combination of personal qualities with relevant knowledge and experience to form opinions and take decisions./The combination of personal qualities with relevant knowledge and experience to form opinions and take decisions. 41. Because some people may have expert knowledge, but they don’t necessarily have judgment. 42. Although artificial intelligence is widely used for routine tasks, it can never exercise judgment as well as humans. 43. According to the passage, with enough practice, machines may be able to recognize implicit cues and thus display the equivalent of good judgment. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 牛栏山一中2026—2027学年度高三第一学期九月月考 英语试卷 2026.09 （考试时间90分钟，共100分） 第一部分：知识运用(共两节，30分) 第一节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，共15分） 阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 My kids sat on Gee’s living room floor and respectfully lifted Christmas decorations out of a cardboard box.

Oxford Vaccine Group B. Insomnia research group C. Oxford Experimental lab D. Brain Scanning study group B For nearly a decade now, Merebeth has been a self-employed pet transport specialist. Her pet transport job was born of the financial crisis(危机)in the late 2000s. The downturn hit the real estate (房地产)firm where she had worked for ten years as an office manager. The firm went broke and left her looking for a new job. One day, while driving near her home, she saw a dog wandering on the road, clearly lost. She took it home, and her sister in Denver agreed to take it. This was a loving home for sure, but 1, 600 miles away. It didn’t take long for Merebeth to decide to drive the dog there herself. It was her first road trip to her new job. Merebeth’s pet delivery service also satisfies her wanderlust. It has taken her to every state in the US except Montana, Washington and Oregon, she says proudly. If she wants to visit a new place, she will simply find a pet with transport needs there. She travels in all weathers. She has driven through 55 mph winds in Wyoming, heavy flooding and storms in Alabama and total whiteout conditions in Kansas. This wanderlust is inherited from her father, she says. He moved their family from Canada to California when she was one year old, because he wanted them to explore a new place together. As soon as she graduated from high school she left home to live on Catalina Island off the Californian coast, away from her parents, where she enjoyed a life of sailing and off-road biking. It turns out that pet transporting pays quite well at about $30, 000 per year before tax. She doesn’t work in summer, as it would be unpleasantly hot for the animals in the car, even with air conditioning. As autumn comes, she gets restless—the same old wanderlust returning. It’s a call she must heed alone, though. Merebeth says, “When I am on the road, I’m just in my own world. I’ve always been independent-spirited and I just feel strongly that I must help animals.” 24. Why did Merebeth changed her job? A. She wanted to work near her home. B. She was tired of working in the office. C. Her sister asked her to move to Denver. D. Her former employer was out of business. 25. The word “wanderlust” in paragraph 2 means a desire to ______? A. make money. B. try various jobs. C. be close to nature. D. travel to different places. 26. What can we learn about Merebeth in her new job? A. She has chances to see rare animals. B. She works hard throughout the year. C. She relies on herself the whole time. D. She earns a basic and tax-free salary. C There’s a new AI bot in town: ChatGPT, and you’d better pay attention, even if you aren’t into artificial intelligence. ChatGPT is an AI chatbot system that OpenAI released in November to show off and test what a very large, powerful AI system can accomplish. You can ask it countless questions and often will get an answer that’s useful. For example, you can ask it encyclopedia questions like, “Explain Newton's laws of motion.” You can tell it, “Write me a poem,” and when it does, say, “Now make it more exciting.” You ask it to write a computer program that'll show you all the different ways you can arrange the letters of a word. ChatGPT is a big deal. The tool seems pretty knowledgeable in areas where there's good training data for it to learn from. It's not all-knowing or smart enough to replace all humans yet, but it can be creative, and its answers can sound downright authoritative. A few days after its launch, more than a million people were trying out ChatGPT. And it's becoming big business. In January, Microsoft pledged to invest billions of dollars into OpenAI, saying it'll build features into cloud services. OpenAI announced a $20 per month ChatGPT Plus service that responds faster and gets new features sooner. It's an AI that's trained to recognize patterns in vast series of text harvested from the internet, then further trained with human assistance to deliver more useful, better dialogue. The answers you get may sound reasonable and even authoritative, but they might well be entirely wrong, as OpenAI warns. Sometimes, helpfully, it'll specifically warn you of its own shortcomings. For example, when I asked it who wrote the phrase “the squirming facts exceed the squamous mind,” ChatGPT replied, “I'm sorry, but I am not able to browse the internet or access any external information beyond what I was trained on.” (The phrase is from Wallace Stevens' 1942 poem Connoisseur of Chaos.) The fact that it offers an answer at all, though, is a notable development in computing. Computers are famously literal, refusing to work unless you follow exact syntax and interface requirements. Large language models are revealing a more human-friendly style of interaction, not to mention an ability to generate answers that are somewhere between copying and creativity. 27. Which of the following can be a subtitle for the first paragraph?

Objective. D The two terms nature and nurture have been subjects of comparison since the 16th century. The argument is centered on the question as to whether it is nature or nurture that makes us who we are. Nature provides the starting point for an organism that will interact with nurture, the environment, during the organism's life. Nature does not just affect an organism during its lifetime, but it also can directly affect the expression of genes in offspring (后代). For the Geneticists, they believe that our lives are entirely determined by genetics, which is nature. An opposing view is that there is no indication that genes (基因) determines one’s personality, rather there is growing evidence that nurture serves as the determining factor in personality development. Nurture refers to the conditions under which living things grow and develop after birth. When applied to human beings, it means how the person is raised, which includes nutrition, education, care, as well as the kind of surroundings, such as cultural influence, family and friends. The argument of nature and nurture as to which is more important is necessitated by an attempt to differentiate how much effect genetics has on a person’s development against how easily humans are influenced by one’s environment. While nurture undeniably plays its part on the growth and development of one’s personality, nature dramatically outweighs nurture, for nature can be linked to a foundation. The impact of nurture on the development of persons cannot be totally denied. However, nature is regarded as being of most importance because of the fact that it offers an opportunity and creates a foundation and the basis for the question of nurture to arise at the very first instance. Even without nurture, the nature impact can still stand independently without necessarily causing destruction. More so, even when the nurture impact is successfully affected, it does not remove the genetic characteristics of a person. It therefore stands correctly that nature is that which determines the substance of a person. 31. What can we learn from Paragraph 2? A. Nature’s role is supported by additional evidence. B. Personality development is determined by nurture. C. Nature impacts gene expression in later generation. D. Environment shapes personality more than genetics. 32. What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. What nurture means to human beings. B. How living things develop after birth. C. How nurture shapes human development. D. How surroundings influence human beings. 33. How does the author stress the greater importance of nature? A. By giving examples. B. By making contrast. C. By conducting experiments. D. By citing research data. 34. What is the best title for the text? A. A Long Story of Nature and Nurture B. A New Research on Nature and Nurture C. Who Can Tell What Makes Who We Are? D. Which Is More Important, Nature or Nurture? 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Productive people have one thing in common: a solid routine consisting of small habits that help them to keep a healthy mindset and lifestyle. 35.

Sir Andrew Likierman of the London Business School suggests that judgment is “the combination of personal qualities with relevant knowledge and experience to form opinions and take decisions”. And he argues that, thus defined, judgment involves a process — taking in information, deciding whom and what to trust, summarizing one’s personal knowledge, checking any prior beliefs or feelings, summarizing the choices available and then making the decision. Expert knowledge can be useful in making judgments. But they are not the same thing. “Academics have expert knowledge,” Sir Andrew observes. “They don’t necessarily have judgment.” People with judgment know when they are out of their depth in making a decision and typically then seek the advice of someone who has the right background and knowledge. “While good judgment is important to success,” Sir Andrew cautions, “success is not a signal that there has been good judgment.” The degree of judgment required tends to increase as people take on more responsibility. Those with routine tasks generally have limited scope for judgment. Line supervisors have some discretion(自行决定权). For a chief executive, the proportion of decisions involving judgment is high. Deciding not to take action is also a judgment with potentially serious consequences (for example, “I won’t get vaccinated” or “I won’t pay my bills”). The world is full of people whose lack of judgment brought their careers or personal life crashing down. Many made the common mistake of assuming everything was fine. Though artificial intelligence gets used for more and more routine tasks in the service sector, exercising judgment may be one area where humans retain an edge over machines. This is far from certain, however. With enough practice, machines may be able to recognize these implicit cues and thus display the equivalent of good judgment. But then, perhaps humans can be taught, too. In the long run, one of the trickiest aspects of human judgment may be knowing precisely when to let machines take decisions and when to leave it to people. 40. What’s Sir Andrew’s definition of judgement? 41. Why aren’t expert knowledge and making judgments the same thing? 42. Please decide which part of the following statement is false, then underline it and explain why. Although artificial intelligence is widely used for routine tasks, it can never exercise judgment as well as humans. 43. Do you agree that humans “retain an edge over machines” in terms of making judgements? Why or why not?
