A
(2026·山东省泰安市高二上学期期中)
With most of the world's population expected to live in urban cities by 2050, there'll be a growing demand for smart streets.Here are four possible ways smart street technology will develop.
Artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure (基础设施)
Chris Carson, founder and CEO of US-based Hayden AI, says that AI-powered sensors (传感器) in cities collect everything from vehicle speed and traffic flow to the make and model of cars on the road.Sensors can analyze and improve traffic flow, and minimize accidents.
Electric charging roads
They will allow electric vehicles to charge as they drive.Moreover, the surface pressure of cars could also serve as a source of renewable energy.Marco Krieziu, commercial director of Italian company 20energy, says its product, LYBRA, recovers energy and heat from the passage of vehicles over its surface and changes it into electricity.
Jigsaw puzzle (拼图) roads
They will allow cities to adapt quickly to traffic patterns, construction needs or emergencies.Thanks to PlasticRoad, they're already being used as bike and foot paths in Belgium and the Netherlands.Carlo Ratti Associati also developed a multipurpose street where blocks could be moved or replaced within minutes to change a road's function.The street could, for example, serve as a road in the mornings and as a basketball court in the evenings.
With smart street technology like this still in the early stages of development, experts think it necessary to let citizens decide what kind of city they want to live in tomorrow.

In the movie The Wrong Trousers, a pair of futuristic trousers lets people walk on walls and ceilings.Inspired by the movie, researchers in England developed “The Right Trousers”, a set of trousers embedded (嵌入) with electrical pumps to force air into tiny tubes that expand and can help elderly or disabled people with issues like getting up or improving blood flow.Now, material scientists, computer programmers and fabric designers are working to advance robotic clothing.
In June, researchers in Australia created robotic fibers, which can make fabric move automatically.Last year, scientists at MIT built fiber batteries that could be embedded into clothes and power robotic clothing.In recent years, Google partnered with brands like Levi's and Adidas to put sensors in jackets, backpacks and shoes, letting users access their phones instantly.Researchers said they could soon unlock a stage where clothing will act more like a computer, sensing how your body feels and telling your clothes how to help.
At the University of New South Wales in Australia, researchers are creating fabrics that can shape-shift.Thanh Nho Do, a senior lecturer at the school, said his team has created tiny tubes that can weave (编织) into sheets of fabric.These tubes can make fabric take various preprogrammed shapes.But challenges still remain for Do's team, especially around making these robotic tubes smaller so they can weave easily with other fabrics.
Rebecca Kramer Bottiglio from Yale University agreed that many challenges remain before smart clothing “reaches their full potential”. It will be challenging to make these clothes, equipped with fibers and technology, strong enough to go through multiple cycles in the laundry (洗衣房), she said.Despite that, she says researchers will figure out a way forward.“Recent breakthroughs point toward a not-so-distant future where smart clothing will be a part of our everyday life,” she said.

Imagine a world in 2050 where cities are full of autonomous vehicles, AI-driven assistants (助手) perfectly fit into our daily routines, and virtual landscapes coexist with reality.From technological advances to climate change impacts, the next few decades will undoubtedly reshape the structure of our existence.
In this new era, artificial intelligence and robotics will take center stage, transforming how we interact with our environment and one another.They will have evolved from mere tools to companions (同伴) that predict our needs and desires.The once-distant dream of having AI-driven personal assistants is now a reality, as they manage our schedules, handle our communications, and offer personalized recommendations with extraordinary accuracy.
However, as we fast-forward to 2050, one cannot help but think about the huge effects of climate change on our planet.At present, most of us are lacking the imagination of what daily life will be like when we have slashed our carbon emissions (碳排放), from our homes and food to travel and the landscapes around us.What follows is an attempt to show you how a day will look in a net zero greenhouse gas emissions world.
Edie Vaughan, a young girl in 2050, lives in Toronto, Canada, a place that is among the most popular destinations for its healthy climate and clean water resources.There are forests, and giant machines taking carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) out of the atmosphere.At that time, there are no office or industrial jobs anymore: artificial intelligence and robots have taken care of that.The few jobs left are in service, culture or health care.Luckily, Edie has her job.Every morning, she checks the balance in her Personal Carbon Allowance (PCA) account to see if she has enough to buy another battery for her e-bike.If she doesn't have enough then she will have to buy carbon credits, and they are expensive.
This story of 2050 is one of hope and possibility—a reminder that while enjoying the convenience brought by technological progress, we should also be responsible for the environment.

√
34.What is one factor for Canada being a popular destination?
A.Plentiful water. B.Health care.
C.Advanced technology. D.Pleasant weather.

56.答案:has brought
57.答案:Unlike

bring(带来)是谓语动词,与主语The intelligent restaurant之间是主动关系,结合时间状语“in the past two years”可知,应用现在完成时,主语是单数,故填has brought。
58.答案:entirely
59.答案:which
“ promise a dish delivery time of just five minutes from the moment of ordering to when it arrives at the customer's table”是非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词six automatic cooking devices,指物,空处在从句中作主语,故填which。
提示词修饰动词relying,用副词作状语。故填entirely。
60.答案:to satisfy

63.答案:integration
提示词作主语,用名词integration,意为“集成,融合”,不可数名词。故填integration。
“ (display) their high efficiency”作结果状语,用动词-ing形式,故填displaying。
64.答案:and
65.答案:preferred
prefer修饰名词词组dining destination,应用形容词preferred作定语,意为“首选的,更合意的”。故填preferred。

(2026·湖北部分省级示范高中高一上期中)
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The shopping was over.My two-year-old daughter sat comfortably in one of my shopping carts, surrounded by a lot of bought items.Shopping once a month was a well-planned process.My shopping list was organized well so that I wouldn't miss even one item.
At the checkout, a gentleman in a suit stood behind me, holding fewer items. He looked up at his watch, then at me and smiled.While my daughter behaved well, I knew I'd taken her out for too long, and she might not stand it soon. Even so, the man obviously had somewhere important to go, and if he stayed behind me, he'd have to wait a long time.
“Why don't you check out first?” I said, moving the cart backwards. “You only bought a few items.”
“Thank you,” he replied appreciatively, stepping ahead of me.
My daughter gave him a warm smile and greeted him in her sweetest voice.
“Hello,” he replied, surprised by my daughter's kindness, and a happy look appeared on his face.
As the belt moved forward, I started unloading my cart.I was only halfway finished unloading the first cart when I suddenly thought of something.I had taken out my bank card the night before and I couldn't remember if I had put it back in my wallet.
I hurriedly took out my wallet and opened it.My heart dropped.The bank card wasn't there.
The gentleman in front of me had paid and was picking up his groceries(食品杂货).
“I've forgotten my bank card.Do you accept a credit card?” I asked the cashier hopefully.“I'm sorry, ma'am.We only accept debit cards(借记卡) or cash,” she answered.
“It will take me an hour to run home and an hour back.Can you just put my stuff on the side please?” I was discouraged.All my careful planning seemed useless now.The one-hour shopping had made me very tired, and I didn't know if my daughter could stand staying in the car for another two hours.
注意:1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
Just then, the gentleman in front of me turned back._______________ ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
He said to the cashier, “I'll pay for her order.” Before I could refuse, he had already handed his debit card to the cashier.I was speechless, my face flushed with both embarrassment and gratitude.He smiled gently and said, “Your little girl looks tired—she shouldn't have to sit in the car for another two hours.” My throat felt tight, and I kept saying “thank you” until he told me it was no big deal.My daughter, sensing the kindness, clapped her hands happily and gave him another big smile.
The gentleman walked me to my car, helping me with my groceries.____ ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
He carefully placed the heavier bags inside.I thanked him again sincerely.Before leaving, he handed me his business card.I promised to pay him back as soon as possible.As I drove home, I thought about how a small, kind act from a stranger had turned my stressful day around.It made me realize that kindness is about being willing to help someone in need.From that day on, I decided to pass on this kindness too, making someone else's day brighter, just like the gentleman did for mine.
导语 本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了作者带着两岁女儿购物时,主动礼让一位赶时间的绅士先结账。结账时作者发现自己忘带银行卡,正当她陷入困境时,那位绅士转身帮助了她。
详解
1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“就在这时,我前面的那位绅士转过身来。”可知,第一段可描写绅士转身后的反应,主动提出帮助的具体言行,作者的反应,女儿的互动。
②由第二段首句内容“那位绅士陪着我走向车子,帮我拿食品杂货。”可知,第二段可描写绅士协助装车的细节,两人的简短对话,离别时的温馨场景,作者的感悟。
2.续写线索:转身——帮助——感谢互动——装车——告别——感悟
