内容正文:
Water level inside the lock rises or falls to match the next
section.When the water levels become the same,gates
open,and the ship moves to the next lock.”可知,连通器系
统助力船舶通行船只进入水闸后,闸门关闭,闸室内水
位上升或下降至与下一河段齐平,待水位一致时,闸门开启
船只即可驶人下一闸室。连通器原理和图C所示相符。
3.C篇章结构题。通读全文可知,第一段是引出话题,介
绍三峡大坝,第二至四段属于主体,介绍了建设背景、过程
和功能作用,最后一段总结升华,呈“总一分一总”结构,与
选项C的图示相符。
长难句解读
原句:The dam teaches us that with determination,
humans can overcome even the most difficult challenges
of nature.
结构剖析:主语是The dam,谓语是teaches,后面的us作
间接宾语,以及that引导的宾语从句作直接宾语。宾语
从句中,with determination是状语,主句是“humans can
overcome..”。
翻译:这座大坝教导我们,只要有决心,人类甚至能克服
自然界最艰巨的挑战
练写作
One possible version:
There have been many great inventions in the world.
Most of them have changed the way we live.For example,
one of the greatest inventions was the wheel.It is very
important today.With the wheel,it is easier to carry heavy
things and to travel long distances.There are many other
great inventions.These inventions have become important
parts of our life today.
I think new inventions will allow us to do things we
have never dreamed of some day.In a word,more
inventions are still needed.As students,we should work
hard to have our own inventions.

二、阅读理解。(共5小题,每小题4分,共20分)》
On February 5th,Hubei Province amazed the world with its "Chucai"robot family.Ten
intelligent robots,including“Worker'”“Jingchu”and“Tianwen”,showed their skills..Some lifted
weights,smiled and chatted with humans,others balanced perfectly when pushed,and one even
stood up quickly after falling!Developed by top teams from Huazhong University of Science and
Technology,Wuhan University,and tech companies in“Optics Valley”(光谷),these robots are
now becoming the new stars of the city.
Looking back,robots have played a big role in daily life.In 2025,robot volunteers showed up
at the Wuhan Marathon.During the cherry blossom season,a smart police robot named "Xiaoluo"
helped manage the crowds.Coffee lovers met "Tianwen",a robot coffee maker that served drinks
smoothly without spilling a drop-how impressive!
A Behind these creations are Wuhan's tech heroes.Companies like Hubei Swit Drive
produce tiny but powerful robot“joints(关节)”used globally..Engineers have also created a“robot
brain"that allows machines to copy human movements perfectly,even dancing in step with each
other!Another breakthrough is electronic "skin",giving robots a human-like sense of touch.
Wuhan is putting billions into the project to build a robot-friendly future.Many tech
companies have joined the project,attracting talented people and fostering minds.With such
efforts,who knows what these robots will achieve next?From sports events to public safety,
Wuhan's robots are not just machines-they're partners shaping a smarter world.

三、任务型阅读。(共5小题,每小题4分,共20分)
Today,anyone can create images with the help of an AI tool.It seems that these images are
becoming even more realistic with each passing day.
"But don't panic,"says Siwei Lyu.He is a computer scientist at the University of Buffalo.
Lyu and a group of researchers have offered some tips on how to find out whether an image is real
or fake.
The first step is to slow down.On social media,it takes us as little as 13 milliseconds()
to process a picture.That may be enough to notice what it is,but not enough to think about whether
it's real or not.When you take more time to look,what you find may surprise you."Next time we
see some interesting or funny things,hopefully we'll pause a little bit and think about it,"Lyu says.
AI programmes are trained to create images by looking at a huge number of real ones.These
programmes only know what they've been given.They don't pay attention to details.This results
in problems that are obvious upon closer inspection().
If there is a person in an image,Lyu recommends looking at his or her hands and eyes.
Current AI programmes aren't good at producing lifelike hands.They may have six fingers,or
fingers that are all the same length or are locked in a strange pose.Humans almost always have
circular pupils(圆形瞳f孔),but AI often produces strangely shaped shadows in the centre of the
eyes.Light reflected from the eyes should also be in the same place on each eye.It's something
that current AI tools are still trying to work out.
Many AI-created images also have unnatural smoothness()where there should be texture
(纹理).Things that should be straight may be curved(弯曲的).You can start looking out for AI-
created images today.Check first before you believe anything you see!
使用具有适当含义和语法规则的单词来完成句子(每空一词),并完成最后一小题。
1.With AI tools'
anyone can create images.But it gets a little more
for
people to tell if the images are real or fake.
50
Unit 3 Make it happen!
2.Usually it takes more than 13 milliseconds to find out the truth,which we may be
at.
And Siwei Lyu hopes we'll pause and think more when we see
interesting or funny.
3.The scientist recommends looking at hands and eyes.In an image created by Al,a person may
have
more finger than five and each finger may be as
as the others.
4.His or her pupils'shape produced by AI may be
from the circular pupils of humans.
So don't
everything you see,and there's still room for AI tools to make improvement.
5.What does the article tell us?
