A 【解析】 【原文】W: Good morning, everyone. Today I’d like to talk about a common problem among teenagers — being addicted to social media. A recent survey shows that 72% of high school students use social media for over 2 hours every day, with most starting at the age of 13 or 14. On one hand, social media helps students stay connected with friends, share interesting stories, and even access free educational resources, like online courses and study tips. On the other hand, it brings many problems. Parents and teachers have noticed that students who spend too much time on social media often have trouble focusing in class. They may also feel upset after comparing their daily lives with the “perfect” posts online, which makes them lose confidence. What’s worse, some students get disturbed by messages during study time, leading to a drop in grades. Experts suggest that instead of banning social media completely, schools should teach students to manage their screen time wisely. For example, setting a fixed time for checking social media after finishing homework, or choosing educational accounts to follow instead of those with meaningless content. Remember, social media is a tool. It can either help us or harm us, depending on how we use it. 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A COMMUNITY READING PROGRAM Help foster a love of reading among children in our neighborhood! The Community Reading Program brings together volunteers and young readers to create meaningful connections through books. We operate across three local libraries and two elementary schools, serving children aged 5 to 12 from diverse backgrounds. WHAT WE DO Volunteers serve as reading buddies, spending one-on-one time with children who need extra support. Each session lasts 45 minutes and includes shared reading, discussion, and fun literacy activities. We also organize monthly book clubs where children can explore stories together and develop critical thinking skills. During school holidays, we run special Reading Adventure events featuring storytelling, arts and crafts, and visits from local authors. VOLUNTEER REQUIREMENTS Volunteers aged 16 and over are welcome. Those under 18 must have the parent/guardian approval section signed. No teaching experience is required, but you should feel comfortable reading aloud and engaging with children.

(帮助培养我们社区儿童对阅读的热爱!)”可知，该项目的主要目的是激发和促进孩子们对阅读的兴趣。 22．细节理解题。根据VOLUNTEER REQUIREMENTS部分“Volunteers aged 16 and over are welcome. (欢迎16岁及以上的志愿者)”可知，加入该项目的志愿者最低年龄限制是16岁。 23．细节理解题。根据VOLUNTEER REQUIREMENTS部分“A required two-hour orientation (培训) session will be provided before your first visit. (在您第一次访问前，必须参加两小时的培训课程)”可知，志愿者在第一次参与服务前被要求参加一场培训会。 B When I was 10, I was caught in a lie. I stubbornly denied breaking a window in my neighbor’s barn, but my parents knew I had done it. In those days, a broken window was a big deal, and I was close to miserable. Then Uncle Jim arrived. He never raised his voice or rushed. Riding beside him in his old green car, I kept glancing at him nervously. I could see a confused smile at the corner of his mouth. “Telling the truth is always easier,” he said out of the blue. He grinned at me. “So it’s perfect for a lazybones like you and me.” That was it — no lecturing, no scolding. My uncle began to hum (哼歌), and I was awash in relief. Not long after, I spotted a pair of brown leather gloves on the windowsill in the post office. Old Mrs Jameson had come in wearing them and left barehanded. I tried them on. They were perfect. That night, my conscience troubled me. The truth is easier for a lazybones. The next day, I returned the gloves. A month later, Mrs Jameson sent me a new pair with a note of thanks. When Uncle Jim asked where I got them, I told him the story. “See?” he said, delighted. Uncle Jim taught me far more than that. One August day, we were fishing in a small boat. I was a bit down at our slow pace. He said speed was fine if you wanted to go fast, but slowing down made any journey less of a blur. “It helps you focus,” he said. I thought of that decades later when he was dying, in his 82nd year. Was he seeing more, even as he slowed? Uncle Jim was an observer who touched those he loved by sharing what he saw. Some things I understood quickly, but others took decades to become clear. Be honest, be brave, look around and slow down — the words were never spoken, but the message always got through. 24．How did Uncle Jim react to the author’s lie? A．He let the lie slide. B．He offered mild guidance. C．He delivered a long lecture. D．He gave a severe punishment. 25．Why did Mrs Jameson send the author a new pair of gloves? A．She knew he was fond of gloves. B．She had extra gloves to give away. C．Her old gloves no longer fitted her. D．She intended to reward his honesty. 26．What does the underlined phrase “less of a blur” in paragraph 4 mean? A．Less boring. B．Less risky. C．More exciting. D．More apparent. 27．What is the main message of the passage? A．Truth does not need to be spoken. B．The elder always give wise advice. C．Honesty and patience matter in life. D．Mistakes are unavoidable for children. 【答案】24．B 25．D 26．D 27．C 【导语】文章讲述了作者回忆吉姆叔叔以温和的方式引导他诚实做人、学会慢下来用心观察，让他领悟诚实与耐心的人生道理。 【详解】24．细节理解题。根据第二段中“‘Telling the truth is always easier,’ he said out of the blue. He grinned at me. ‘So it’s perfect for a lazybones like you and me.’ That was it — no lecturing, no scolding. My uncle began to hum, and I was awash in relief. (‘说实话往往更容易。’他突然开口，冲我咧嘴一笑：‘所以这很适合咱们这种懒人。’仅此而已——没有说教，没有责骂。叔叔轻轻哼起歌，我如释重负。)”可知，吉姆叔叔没有训斥、长篇说教，只是轻松告诉作者讲真话更简单，属于温和引导。 25．推理判断题。根据第三段中“Not long after, I spotted a pair of brown leather gloves on the windowsill in the post office. Old Mrs Jameson had come in wearing them and left barehanded. I tried them on. They were perfect. That night, my conscience troubled me. The truth is easier for a lazybones. The next day, I returned the gloves. A month later, Mrs Jameson sent me a new pair with a note of thanks. (不久之后，我在邮局窗台上看到一副棕色皮手套。詹姆森老太太来时戴着它，离开时空手走了。我试戴了一下，大小刚刚好。那天晚上，我内心备受良心煎熬。那句‘说实话对懒人更简单’浮现在脑海。第二天，我把手套还了回去。一个月后，詹姆森太太送给我一副新手套，附了一封感谢信。)”可知，作者捡到詹姆森老太太遗落的手套后，受吉姆叔叔的影响选择归还，是诚实的行为，对方寄来新手套还附了感谢便条，显然是为了奖励他的诚实。 26．词句猜测题。根据第四段中“He said speed was fine if you wanted to go fast, but slowing down made any journey less of a blur. ‘It helps you focus,’ he said. I thought of that decades later when he was dying, in his 82nd year. Was he seeing more, even as he slowed? (他说，想追求速度无可厚非，但放慢脚步，旅途就less of a blur。‘这能帮你专注。’他说。几十年后，82岁的他弥留之际，我想起这句话。当生命脚步放缓时，他是否看见了更多东西？)”可知，吉姆叔叔教导作者慢下来能帮人集中注意力、看到更多内容，说明放慢节奏后旅途的细节不再模糊，会更清晰可见，由此可推知less of a blur意为“不再模糊、更清晰可见”。 27．主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Be honest, be brave, look around and slow down — the words were never spoken, but the message always got through. (诚实、勇敢、多留意周遭、慢下来——这些话他从未直白说出，但这份教诲，我一直都收到了。)”并结合全文可知，吉姆叔叔以温和的方式引导作者要诚实做人、学会慢下来用心观察，让他领悟到了诚实与耐心的人生道理，对应选项C“生活中诚实和耐心十分重要”。 C Most hospitals don’t have a canal (排水渠) to collect rainwater. That’s one of the unusual features that earned a major architecture honor — the 2021 RIBA International Prize — for Friendship Hospital, an 80-bed rural community hospital in Bangladesh. It is a demonstration of how beautiful architecture can be achieved through good design when working with a relatively modest budget and with difficult contextual restrictions.      Located in Shyamnagar in the southern region of Bangladesh, Friendship Hospital was designed to meld (融合) with the water-laden local environment, which is filled with shrimp fisheries and crisscrossed by rivers. The hospital is surrounded by former grain fields that now sit underwater due to sea level rise (the land has been transformed into the shrimp fisheries as a result).     But the substantial supply of water surrounding the structure can’t be easily used for drinking water and other purposes because of its high salinity level (含盐量). The hospital’s relationship with rainwater was a key element in the prize. Its major design feature is a canal that zigzags along the length of the hospital, splitting the outpatient building from the building for inpatient services. The canal collects rainwater from the site, which is then stored in a tank so that it can be used by the hospital.     The cycle of disastrous flooding in Bangladesh is caused by the combination of cyclones, monsoons and snowmelt from the Himalayas. As climate change makes rainfall more unstable and powerful storms even more intense, millions in Bangladesh are facing destructive effects, including loss of agricultural land due to sea level rise.     The designer, architect Kashef Chowdhury hopes the award will inspire people to commit to architecture that cares for humans and nature alike. “I am encouraged that this may inspire more of us to commit, not in spite of, but because of limitations of resources and means, to an architecture of care both for humanity and for nature, to rise collectively to the urgencies that we face today on a planetary scale,” Chowdhury said. 28．What leads Friendship Hospital to win the architecture prize? A．Its service level. B．Its design philosophy. C．Its long history. D．Its hard construction. 29．How does Friendship Hospital tackle local rainwater? A．It collects rainwater for hospital use. B．It recycles rainwater for farm irrigation. C．It desalts rainwater for patients’ daily drinking. D．It stores rainwater in tanks for shrimp fisheries. 30．What message does Chowdhury mainly convey? A．Be in awe of nature. B．Man can overcome nature. C．Be at one with nature. D．Inspiration springs from nature. 31．What can be a suitable title for the text? A．A RIBA International Prize in Bangladesh B．A Hospital’s Victory over Climate Change C．A Special Canal: An Amazing Architecture World D．A Prized Hospital: Fitting into a Watery Environment 【答案】28．B 29．A 30．C 31．D 【导语】本文主要介绍的是孟加拉国友谊医院因其独特的设计理念——与多水环境融合并收集雨水——而荣获2021年RIBA国际建筑大奖。 【详解】28．细节理解题。根据第一段“It is a demonstration of how beautiful architecture can be achieved through good design when working with a relatively modest budget and with difficult contextual restrictions. (这展示了在相对适中的预算和困难的环境限制下，如何通过良好的设计实现美丽的建筑。)”可知，友谊医院获奖是因为其设计理念。 29．细节理解题。根据第三段“The canal collects rainwater from the site, which is then stored in a tank so that it can be used by the hospital. (这个排水渠收集现场的雨水，然后储存在水箱中，以便医院使用。)”可知，友谊医院收集雨水供医院使用。 30．推理判断题。根据最后一段“‘I am encouraged that this may inspire more of us to commit, not in spite of, but because of limitations of resources and means, to an architecture of care both for humanity and for nature, to rise collectively to the urgencies that we face today on a planetary scale,’ Chowdhury said. (‘我感到鼓舞的是，这可能会激励我们更多人投入其中，不是不顾资源和手段的限制，而正是因为这些限制，去致力于一种既关怀人类又关怀自然的建筑，共同应对我们今天在地球范围内面临的紧迫问题，’Chowdhury 说。)”可知，Chowdhury主要传达的是与自然和谐共处的理念。 31．主旨大意题。根据全文内容，尤其是第一段“Most hospitals don’t have a canal (排水渠) to collect rainwater. That’s one of the unusual features that earned a major architecture honor — the 2021 RIBA International Prize — for Friendship Hospital, an 80-bed rural community hospital in Bangladesh. (大多数医院都没有收集雨水的排水渠。这正是孟加拉国友谊医院（一家拥有80张床位的乡村社区医院）荣获2021年RIBA国际大奖这一重要建筑荣誉的诸多独特之处之一。)”以及第二段“Located in Shyamnagar in the southern region of Bangladesh, Friendship Hospital was designed to meld (融合) with the water-laden local environment, which is filled with shrimp fisheries and crisscrossed by rivers. (友谊医院位于孟加拉国南部的沙姆纳加尔（Shyamnagar），其设计旨在与当地多水的环境融为一体——那里遍布养虾场，河流纵横交错。)”可知，本文主要介绍的是一家获奖医院如何与多水环境相适应，因此最佳标题是“一家获奖医院：融入水环境”。 D In a groundbreaking development for artificial intelligence, researchers at VUB’s Data Analytics Lab have demonstrated that commercial language models can contribute to original mathematical discoveries. Their study reveals that OpenAI’s ChatGPT-5.2 (‘Thinking’) played a pivotal role in proving a complex 2024 conjecture proposed by mathematicians Ran and Teng, a problem that had previously remained unsolved. The research team engaged in seven distinct chat sessions with the AI, repeating through four different versions of the argument. While the human researchers provided the necessary oversight to ensure logical completeness, ChatGPT was responsible for developing the core structure of the proof. This collaborative process, which the team terms “vibe-proving”, mirrors the concept of “vibe-coding” used in software development, where AI assists in organizing and exploring complex theoretical landscapes. Brecht Verbeken, a postdoctoral researcher involved in the project, was astonished by how quickly the AI produced a usable proof structure. “I had long suspected that ChatGPT could help me prove unsolved mathematical problems, and yet the real-world performance far exceeded my expectations,” he stated. The findings challenge the prevailing misconception that AI creativity is merely a recombination of existing training data. Instead, this work suggests that commercially available models possess the capacity for genuine theoretical innovation. However, the study also highlights a critical bottleneck in this new methodology. Despite the AI’s ability to generate candidate proofs rapidly, the researchers emphasize that human experts remain essential to verify (验证) the arguments and resolve any remaining gaps. Andres Algaba, a professor at the lab, notes that while formulating proofs is now faster, the final review stage is time-consuming. Nevertheless, the team remains optimistic that language models will eventually assist in this verification stage as well. This experiment marks a significant shift in how we perceive AI’s role in theoretical research. It moves beyond simple assistance in coding or writing, suggesting a future where AI acts as a collaborative partner in the precise and creative process of mathematical discovery. 32．What can be concluded about “vibe-proving”? A．It requires no human intervention. B．It is inspired by software development. C．It is slower than traditional methods. D．It is used for simple theoretical tasks. 33．How did Brecht Verbeken react to the research outcome? A．With doubt about its reliability. B．With surprise at its efficiency. C．With praise for its creativity. D．With concern over its speed. 34．Which aspect of the new methodology is regarded as the biggest challenge? A．The human verification process. B．The cost of the software. C．The lack of well-trained AI tools. D．The speed of the computer. 35．What is the text mainly about? A．The replacement of human mathematicians by AI. B．A new method for rapid computer code generation. C．The limitations of commercial AI models in science. D．AI’s role in original mathematical discovery research. 【答案】32．B 33．B 34．A 35．D 【导语】文章主要介绍了商用语言模型可助力原创数学发现的相关研究内容、价值与现存瓶颈。 【详解】32．细节理解题。根据第二段“This collaborative process, which the team terms “vibe-proving”, mirrors the concept of “vibe-coding” used in software development, where AI assists in organizing and exploring complex theoretical landscapes.(这个协作过程，团队称之为“氛围式验证”，类似于软件开发中使用的“氛围编码”概念，即人工智能协助组织和探索复杂的理论领域)”可知，“vibe-proving”的灵感来自软件开发。 33．细节理解题。根据第三段“Brecht Verbeken, a postdoctoral researcher involved in the project, was astonished by how quickly the AI produced a usable proof structure.(参与该项目的博士后研究员布雷赫特·维尔贝肯对人工智能生成可用证明结构的速度感到惊讶)”可知，Brecht Verbeken对AI如此迅速地生成可用的证明结构感到震惊，即他对AI的高效性感到惊讶。 34．细节理解题。根据第四段“However, the study also highlights a critical bottleneck in this new methodology. Despite the AI’s ability to generate candidate proofs rapidly, the researchers emphasize that human experts remain essential to verify (验证) the arguments and resolve any remaining gaps. Andres Algaba, a professor at the lab, notes that while formulating proofs is now faster, the final review stage is time-consuming.(然而，该研究也指出了这一新方法中的一个关键瓶颈。尽管人工智能能够快速生成候选证明，但研究人员强调，人类专家仍对验证论证和填补尚存的逻辑缺口至关重要。实验室教授安德烈斯·阿尔加巴指出，虽然构建证明的过程现在更快了，但最终的审查阶段仍然耗时)”可知，该新方法的一个关键瓶颈（最大挑战）是仍然需要人类专家来验证论证，且最终的审查阶段非常耗时。 35．主旨大意题。文章第一段开篇点题，指出商业语言模型可以为原创数学发现做出贡献；中间段落详细介绍了AI如何协助数学家证明复杂的猜想以及面临的验证挑战；最后一段总结指出，这标志着AI在理论研究（数学发现）中正成为人类的合作伙伴。因此，全文主要探讨了AI在原创数学发现研究中的作用。 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. 36 American psychologists once published an article in Science. 37 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. Everyone was then asked to write down as many facts as possible from memory. People who thought the information would be saved remembered less than those who believed it would be lost. 38 If the brain knows that important information can be obtained from external storage, it sees no reason to waste energy trying to memorize it. Neuroscientists argue that the strength of memory is directly linked to how often we review what we memorize. 39 At the same time, the rise of search engines and quick access to knowledge have made turning to our own memories less necessary. Why make the effort to remember something when online search tools can find the exact answer in a second? 40 It moves some knowledge outside and makes information available with a single click. However, the strength of the human mind does not lie in the amount of data we memorize. True intelligence lies in the ability to ask questions, understand connections, doubt, seek evidence, and create something new. A．The logic is quite clear. B．They studied how technology affects memory. C．This phenomenon is called the online search effect. D．We tend to ignore how digital storage shapes our memory. E．Online tools bring us easy access to unnecessary information in the world. F．The more frequently you recall a piece of information, the better it is stored. G．If used wisely, the Internet is not the enemy of memory, but a powerful tool. 【答案】36．C 37．B 38．A 39．F 40．G 【导语】文章主要讲述“在线搜索效应”——人们因过度依赖互联网和搜索引擎查找信息而导致自身记忆力下降的现象。 【详解】36．空前“In a world where answers appear in seconds, our memory has started to work differently.

However, the strength of the human mind does not lie in the amount of data we memorize.(它将一些知识存储在外部，只需一次点击即可获取信息。然而，人类思维的力量并不在于我们记住的数据量)”介绍了数字工具将信息外置、点击即可获取的特点，同时点明人类智慧的核心不在于记忆数据量，G选项“如果合理使用，互联网不是记忆的敌人，而是强大的工具”引出对互联网作用的辩证讨论，契合段落逻辑。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Katia Lekarski founded an online platform — Invitin — earlier this year, where couples can sell tickets to weddings.

Every day, every minute seems to be counted. Every senior three student is buried under piles of books and endless mock exams, struggling to pursue their dreams. For months, I have been working extremely hard. I burned the midnight oil regularly, slipping bitter coffee to keep my eyes open, and recited countless words and formulas. I spared no effort in every subject, holding an unshakable belief that my constant hard work would eventually bear fruit and I would make remarkable progress in the upcoming crucial monthly exam. However, life is full of ups and downs. The recent crucial monthly exam turned out to be a total disaster. When the results were announced, my grades dropped sharply, far below my usual level and even lower than many classmates who I once thought were inferior to me. Staring at the disappointing papers, I was totally shocked and heartbroken. My hands trembled as I held the paper, and the red marks seemed to be laughing at me mockingly. All the careful revision, the endless exercises, and the late-night efforts seemed to be in vain, turning into a pile of waste paper. Facing the frustrating results, I was overwhelmed with sorrow, frustration and heavy self-doubt. I buried my head in my arms and hid in the corner of the classroom. I lowered my head all day at school, unwilling to make eye contact with anyone or talk with my classmates. I locked myself in the classroom silently after class, with tears rolling down my cheeks unconsciously. The sound of the turning pages of the book felt like a heavy hammer hitting my heart. I was terrified that I would let my parents down deeply. They have always been my strongest supporters, sacrificing their time and energy to take care of my daily life and encourage me endlessly. Worse still, I gradually lost faith in continuing to fight for my dream university. I didn’t dare to face my parents, let alone tell them the bad news. When evening fell, I dragged my feet home slowly, with a heavy heart and downcast eyes. The street lamps cast long, lonely shadows behind me. I even feared to see the warm lights glowing at home, worrying about the disappointment that would flicker in their eyes the moment they saw my report card. 注意：1. 续写词数应为 150 左右； 2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: As soon as I stepped into the house, my parents noticed my unusual depression. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Hearing their warm words, I couldn’t hold back my tears any longer. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Paragraph 1 As soon as I stepped into the house, my parents noticed my unusual depression. Instead of pressing me for details immediately, my mother gently pulled me to sit at the table, placing a cup of warm milk in my hand, while my father sat beside me with a soft smile. “We saw your tiredness these days,” he said softly, “No matter what the result is, we’re always proud of you.” The warm light of the dining room wrapped around me, and the familiar smell of home-cooked food calmed my racing heart. I stared at the steam rising from the milk, my throat tightening with unspeakable emotion. Paragraph 2 Hearing their warm words, I couldn’t hold back my tears any longer. I sobbed out the whole story of my exam failure, pouring out all my frustration and self-doubt. My mother patted my back gently, saying, “Adversity is the best teacher of growth.” My father added, “What matters is not the score, but the courage to stand up again.” Their words were like a warm current melting the ice in my heart. I wiped my tears, determined to pick myself up, learn from the mistakes, and keep fighting for my dream with renewed strength. 【导语】本文以作者的高考备考经历和考试失利后的心境为线索展开，讲述了高考临近，作者努力备考、熬夜刷题，满心期待月度考试能取得进步，却遭遇成绩暴跌，内心充满悲伤、挫败和自我怀疑，害怕让父母失望、失去追梦信心，回家后被父母温柔安慰，重新振作起来的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ① 由第一段首句内容可知，第一段写作者一进门，父母就察觉他的低落，没有追问，而是用温暖的举动安抚他，告诉他无论结果如何都会为他骄傲，让他感受到家的温暖。 ② 由第二段首句内容可知，第二段写作者忍不住落泪，向父母坦白考试失利的事，倾诉内心的挫败，父母温柔开导他，他重新坚定信心，决定继续为梦想奋斗。 2. 续写线索：进门被察觉——父母安抚——感受温暖——倾诉失利——父母开导——重拾信心——继续奋斗 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①凝视：stare at/gaze at/peer at ②倾诉：sob out/pour out 情绪类 ①挫败：frustration/depression/disappointment ②坚定：determined/firm 【点睛】[高分句型1] I stared at the steam rising from the milk, my throat tightening with unspeakable emotion.（运用了独立主格结构作状语） [高分句型2] My father added, “What matters is not the score, but the courage to stand up again.”（运用了what引导的主语从句） 2 / 24 1 / 24 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $2027年高考第二次模拟考试 英语·答题卡 姓 名： 缺考 贴条形码区 准考证号 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 注意事项 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 1 1.答题前，考生先将自己的姓名、准考证号码填写清楚！ 23456789 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 并认真检查监考员所粘贴的条形码。 4 4 4 4 4 4 2. 选择题必须使用2B铅笔填涂；非选择题必须用0.5mm 456789 5 5 5 5 5 黑色字迹的签字笔填写，字体工整。 6 6 6 6 6 6 3.请按题号顺序在各题的答题区内作答，超出答题区域范 789 56789 789 56789 7 7 7 围的答案无效，在草纸、试卷上作答无效。 4. 89 8 8 保持卡面清洁， 不要折叠、不要弄破、弄皱，不准使用 涂改液、刮纸刀。 9 9 9 5.正确填涂 选择题 (请用2B 铅笔填涂) B 1 2 BBBB 67890 12 B 謀 345 C IA] 345 67890 A 11213415 [AI[BIICI[DIIE JIFIIG] IAJIBIICIIDIIEJIFJL 3371890 E-- B 132331455 B D 5308G IAJIBIICIIDIIE]IFII B u AJIBIICIIDIIEJIFJI 40 IAJ[BJICJID]IEJIFJ[ 蜜 41 B C) B 164738950 Ic BBBBB D IA DI BBB 12345 非选择题 (请在各试题的答题区内作答) 第三部分 语言运用 （共两节，满分30分) 第二节 (共10小题： 每小题1.5分，满分15分) 凳 56. 57. 58. 59. 60. 61 62. 63 64. 65 英语第1页（共2页） 请在各题目的答题区域内作答，肃·黑色矩形边框限定区域的答案无效！ 第四部分写作巷两节客满分抑分)，超出黑色矩形边框限定区域的答案无效！ 第一节（满分15分） 密 第二节（满分25分） Paragraph 1: 封 Paragraph 2: 线 英语第2页（共2页) 学校 班级 姓名 准考证号 密 封 线 0 i ■第一节听下面五段录音。每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后，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。现在你有5秒钟的时间阅读第一小题的有关内容。听下面的录音，回答第一小题。You should have come earlier to see the appealing beginning of the live music festival in this park.

Today, i'd like to talk about a common problem among teenagers being addicted to social media. A recent survey shows that seventy two percent of high school students use social media for over two hours every day, with most starting at the age of thirteen or fourteen. On one hand, social media helps students stay connected with friends, share interesting stories, and even access free educational resources like online courses and steady tips. On the other hand, IT brings many problems. Parents and teachers have noticed that students who spend too much time on social media often have trouble focusing in class. They may also feel upset after comparing their daily lives with the perfect posts online, which makes them lose confidence. What's worse, some students get disturbed by messages during study time, leading to a drop in grades. Experts suggest that instead of banning social media completely, school should teach students to manage their screen time wisely. For example, setting a fix time for checking social media after finishing homework, or choosing educational accounts to follow instead of those with meaningless content. Remember, social media is a tool IT can either help us or harm us, depending on how we use IT. Good morning, everyone.

B When I was 10, I was caught in a lie. I stubbornly denied breaking a window in my neighbor’s barn, but my parents knew I had done it. In those days, a broken window was a big deal, and I was close to miserable. Then Uncle Jim arrived. He never raised his voice or rushed. Riding beside him in his old green car, I kept glancing at him nervously. I could see a confused smile at the corner of his mouth. “Telling the truth is always easier,” he said out of the blue. He grinned at me. “So it’s perfect for a lazybones like you and me.” That was it — no lecturing, no scolding. My uncle began to hum (哼歌), and I was awash in relief. Not long after, I spotted a pair of brown leather gloves on the windowsill in the post office. Old Mrs Jameson had come in wearing them and left barehanded. I tried them on. They were perfect. That night, my conscience troubled me. The truth is easier for a lazybones. The next day, I returned the gloves. A month later, Mrs Jameson sent me a new pair with a note of thanks. When Uncle Jim asked where I got them, I told him the story. “See?” he said, delighted. Uncle Jim taught me far more than that. One August day, we were fishing in a small boat. I was a bit down at our slow pace. He said speed was fine if you wanted to go fast, but slowing down made any journey less of a blur. “It helps you focus,” he said. I thought of that decades later when he was dying, in his 82nd year. Was he seeing more, even as he slowed? Uncle Jim was an observer who touched those he loved by sharing what he saw. Some things I understood quickly, but others took decades to become clear. Be honest, be brave, look around and slow down — the words were never spoken, but the message always got through. 24．How did Uncle Jim react to the author’s lie? A．He let the lie slide. B．He offered mild guidance. C．He delivered a long lecture. D．He gave a severe punishment. 25．Why did Mrs Jameson send the author a new pair of gloves? A．She knew he was fond of gloves. B．She had extra gloves to give away. C．Her old gloves no longer fitted her. D．She intended to reward his honesty. 26．What does the underlined phrase “less of a blur” in paragraph 4 mean? A．Less boring. B．Less risky. C．More exciting. D．More apparent. 27．What is the main message of the passage? A．Truth does not need to be spoken. B．The elder always give wise advice. C．Honesty and patience matter in life. D．Mistakes are unavoidable for children. C Most hospitals don’t have a canal (排水渠) to collect rainwater. That’s one of the unusual features that earned a major architecture honor — the 2021 RIBA International Prize — for Friendship Hospital, an 80-bed rural community hospital in Bangladesh. It is a demonstration of how beautiful architecture can be achieved through good design when working with a relatively modest budget and with difficult contextual restrictions.      Located in Shyamnagar in the southern region of Bangladesh, Friendship Hospital was designed to meld (融合) with the water-laden local environment, which is filled with shrimp fisheries and crisscrossed by rivers. The hospital is surrounded by former grain fields that now sit underwater due to sea level rise (the land has been transformed into the shrimp fisheries as a result).     But the substantial supply of water surrounding the structure can’t be easily used for drinking water and other purposes because of its high salinity level (含盐量). The hospital’s relationship with rainwater was a key element in the prize. Its major design feature is a canal that zigzags along the length of the hospital, splitting the outpatient building from the building for inpatient services. The canal collects rainwater from the site, which is then stored in a tank so that it can be used by the hospital.     The cycle of disastrous flooding in Bangladesh is caused by the combination of cyclones, monsoons and snowmelt from the Himalayas. As climate change makes rainfall more unstable and powerful storms even more intense, millions in Bangladesh are facing destructive effects, including loss of agricultural land due to sea level rise.     The designer, architect Kashef Chowdhury hopes the award will inspire people to commit to architecture that cares for humans and nature alike. “I am encouraged that this may inspire more of us to commit, not in spite of, but because of limitations of resources and means, to an architecture of care both for humanity and for nature, to rise collectively to the urgencies that we face today on a planetary scale,” Chowdhury said. 28．What leads Friendship Hospital to win the architecture prize? A．Its service level. B．Its design philosophy. C．Its long history. D．Its hard construction. 29．How does Friendship Hospital tackle local rainwater? A．It collects rainwater for hospital use. B．It recycles rainwater for farm irrigation. C．It desalts rainwater for patients’ daily drinking. D．It stores rainwater in tanks for shrimp fisheries. 30．What message does Chowdhury mainly convey? A．Be in awe of nature. B．Man can overcome nature. C．Be at one with nature. D．Inspiration springs from nature. 31．What can be a suitable title for the text? A．A RIBA International Prize in Bangladesh B．A Hospital’s Victory over Climate Change C．A Special Canal: An Amazing Architecture World D．A Prized Hospital: Fitting into a Watery Environment D In a groundbreaking development for artificial intelligence, researchers at VUB’s Data Analytics Lab have demonstrated that commercial language models can contribute to original mathematical discoveries. Their study reveals that OpenAI’s ChatGPT-5.2 (‘Thinking’) played a pivotal role in proving a complex 2024 conjecture proposed by mathematicians Ran and Teng, a problem that had previously remained unsolved. The research team engaged in seven distinct chat sessions with the AI, repeating through four different versions of the argument. While the human researchers provided the necessary oversight to ensure logical completeness, ChatGPT was responsible for developing the core structure of the proof. This collaborative process, which the team terms “vibe-proving”, mirrors the concept of “vibe-coding” used in software development, where AI assists in organizing and exploring complex theoretical landscapes. Brecht Verbeken, a postdoctoral researcher involved in the project, was astonished by how quickly the AI produced a usable proof structure. “I had long suspected that ChatGPT could help me prove unsolved mathematical problems, and yet the real-world performance far exceeded my expectations,” he stated. The findings challenge the prevailing misconception that AI creativity is merely a recombination of existing training data. Instead, this work suggests that commercially available models possess the capacity for genuine theoretical innovation. However, the study also highlights a critical bottleneck in this new methodology. Despite the AI’s ability to generate candidate proofs rapidly, the researchers emphasize that human experts remain essential to verify (验证) the arguments and resolve any remaining gaps. Andres Algaba, a professor at the lab, notes that while formulating proofs is now faster, the final review stage is time-consuming. Nevertheless, the team remains optimistic that language models will eventually assist in this verification stage as well. This experiment marks a significant shift in how we perceive AI’s role in theoretical research. It moves beyond simple assistance in coding or writing, suggesting a future where AI acts as a collaborative partner in the precise and creative process of mathematical discovery. 32．What can be concluded about “vibe-proving”? A．It requires no human intervention. B．It is inspired by software development. C．It is slower than traditional methods. D．It is used for simple theoretical tasks. 33．How did Brecht Verbeken react to the research outcome? A．With doubt about its reliability. B．With surprise at its efficiency. C．With praise for its creativity. D．With concern over its speed. 34．Which aspect of the new methodology is regarded as the biggest challenge? A．The human verification process. B．The cost of the software. C．The lack of well-trained AI tools. D．The speed of the computer. 35．What is the text mainly about? A．The replacement of human mathematicians by AI. B．A new method for rapid computer code generation. C．The limitations of commercial AI models in science. D．AI’s role in original mathematical discovery research. 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. 36 American psychologists once published an article in Science. 37 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. Everyone was then asked to write down as many facts as possible from memory. People who thought the information would be saved remembered less than those who believed it would be lost. 38 If the brain knows that important information can be obtained from external storage, it sees no reason to waste energy trying to memorize it. Neuroscientists argue that the strength of memory is directly linked to how often we review what we memorize. 39 At the same time, the rise of search engines and quick access to knowledge have made turning to our own memories less necessary. Why make the effort to remember something when online search tools can find the exact answer in a second? 40 It moves some knowledge outside and makes information available with a single click. However, the strength of the human mind does not lie in the amount of data we memorize. True intelligence lies in the ability to ask questions, understand connections, doubt, seek evidence, and create something new. A．The logic is quite clear. B．They studied how technology affects memory. C．This phenomenon is called the online search effect. D．We tend to ignore how digital storage shapes our memory. E．Online tools bring us easy access to unnecessary information in the world. F．The more frequently you recall a piece of information, the better it is stored. G．If used wisely, the Internet is not the enemy of memory, but a powerful tool. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Katia Lekarski founded an online platform — Invitin — earlier this year, where couples can sell tickets to weddings.

Every day, every minute seems to be counted. Every senior three student is buried under piles of books and endless mock exams, struggling to pursue their dreams. For months, I have been working extremely hard. I burned the midnight oil regularly, slipping bitter coffee to keep my eyes open, and recited countless words and formulas. I spared no effort in every subject, holding an unshakable belief that my constant hard work would eventually bear fruit and I would make remarkable progress in the upcoming crucial monthly exam. However, life is full of ups and downs. The recent crucial monthly exam turned out to be a total disaster. When the results were announced, my grades dropped sharply, far below my usual level and even lower than many classmates who I once thought were inferior to me. Staring at the disappointing papers, I was totally shocked and heartbroken. My hands trembled as I held the paper, and the red marks seemed to be laughing at me mockingly. All the careful revision, the endless exercises, and the late-night efforts seemed to be in vain, turning into a pile of waste paper. Facing the frustrating results, I was overwhelmed with sorrow, frustration and heavy self-doubt. I buried my head in my arms and hid in the corner of the classroom. I lowered my head all day at school, unwilling to make eye contact with anyone or talk with my classmates. I locked myself in the classroom silently after class, with tears rolling down my cheeks unconsciously. The sound of the turning pages of the book felt like a heavy hammer hitting my heart. I was terrified that I would let my parents down deeply. They have always been my strongest supporters, sacrificing their time and energy to take care of my daily life and encourage me endlessly. Worse still, I gradually lost faith in continuing to fight for my dream university. I didn’t dare to face my parents, let alone tell them the bad news. When evening fell, I dragged my feet home slowly, with a heavy heart and downcast eyes. The street lamps cast long, lonely shadows behind me. I even feared to see the warm lights glowing at home, worrying about the disappointment that would flicker in their eyes the moment they saw my report card. 注意：1. 续写词数应为 150 左右； 2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: As soon as I stepped into the house, my parents noticed my unusual depression. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Hearing their warm words, I couldn’t hold back my tears any longer. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 2 / 24 1 / 24 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
