His most meaningful discovery yet is his 88-year-old mother, Christine Hazell, who lives with progressive memory loss and only began drawing six months ago. The journey began when Higgs’ sister Gaby, an architect, suggested Hazell copy family photos with leftover colored pencils to occupy her days. Hazell soon created over 200 portraits of loved ones and their dog, drawing daily for 10 minutes to two hours. Gaby shared the works with Higgs, who was fascinated: as director of New York’s White Columns, he recognized their significance, especially since Hazell no longer recognizes family but remains fully focused in drawing their faces. Higgs shared the drawings on Instagram, sparking viral praise — including praise from famous artists. Hazell’s unique style, which “spoils” photo perfection by reimagining subjects, has secured four upcoming exhibitions: a York restaurant-gallery’s debut showcase of her Yorkshire-inspired portraits, a London alternative art space’s group display, an East Yorkshire outsider art gallery’s summer exhibition, and a feature at Higgs’ own New York institution. Curators hail her work as “magical” and “the best outsider art in Yorkshire”, praising its purity and lack of commercial motive. For Higgs, Hazell’s journey proves universal creativity: “Give someone time, encouragement, and resources, and it will most likely happen.” As her memory fades, her artistic confidence and visual clarity only grow — a moving proof of art’s transformative power. 4. What do we know about Matthew Higgs? A. He’s a successful modern artist. B. He’s a supporter of many artists. C. He’s a specialist in memory loss. D. He’s a painting teacher of his mother. 5. What can we infer about Christine Hazell’s drawing practice? A. She started drawing to kill the time. B. She draws portraits for medical purposes. C. Her drawing helps her recognize her family. D. She uses professional art supplies for creation. 6. Why are Hazell’s paintings highly praised? A. They carry her love for her family. B. They are creative and pure. C. They’re recognized by professionals. D. They look the same as the photos. 7. Which is the best title for the passage? A. Matthew Higgs: Lifelong Art Nurturer B. Widely Shared Art: From Photos to Exhibitions C. Christine Hazell: An 88-Year-Old’s Art Journey D. Yorkshire’s Outsider Art: Widely Praised Works 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. B 7. C 【解析】 【导语】这篇文章主要讲述了资深艺术从业者马修患有失忆症的八十八岁母亲为打发时间画画，作品风格纯粹独特走红，将举办四场展览，印证艺术拥有治愈与创造的力量。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Over four decades as an art organizer, publisher, and gallerist, Matthew Higgs has nurtured countless artists — including rising contemporaries in the 1990s — and supported creators from non-traditional backgrounds.( 作为艺术组织者、出版人和画廊经营者，马修·希格斯在四十多年的职业生涯中，培养了无数艺术家——包括1990年代崭露头角的当代艺术家——并支持来自非传统背景的创作者。)”可知，马修·希格斯他是许多艺术家的支持者。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“The journey began when Higgs’ sister Gaby, an architect, suggested Hazell copy family photos with leftover colored pencils to occupy her days. Hazell soon created over 200 portraits of loved ones and their dog, drawing daily for 10 minutes to two hours.( 这段旅程始于希格斯的姐姐加比，一位建筑师，建议哈泽尔用剩下的彩色铅笔复制家庭照片，以打发时间。哈泽尔很快创作出200多幅亲人及其爱犬的肖像，每天绘画10分钟到2个小时。)”可知，关于克里斯汀·哈泽尔的绘画实践，我们可以推断出她开始画画是为了消磨时间。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Hazell’s unique style, which “spoils” photo perfection by reimagining subjects, has secured four upcoming exhibitions: a York restaurant-gallery’s debut showcase of her Yorkshire-inspired portraits, a London alternative art space’s group display, an East Yorkshire outsider art gallery’s summer exhibition, and a feature at Higgs’ own New York institution. Curators hail her work as “magical” and “the best outsider art in Yorkshire”, praising its purity and lack of commercial motive.(哈泽尔的画风别具一格，她不照搬照片的完美样貌，而是对人物形象进行二次艺术重塑。她已敲定四场即将开展的展览：约克一家餐厅画廊将首次展出以约克郡为灵感的人物肖像；伦敦一处先锋艺术空间的联展；东约克郡原生美术馆夏季特展；以及希格斯本人在纽约经营的艺术机构专题展。策展人盛赞其作品充满灵气，称它是约克郡最出色的原生艺术，夸赞画作纯粹质朴，不带一丝功利商业化色彩。)”可知，哈泽尔的画作备受赞誉是因为它们富有创意且纯真。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，这篇文章主要讲述了资深艺术从业者马修患有失忆症的八十八岁母亲克里斯汀·哈泽尔为打发时间画画，作品风格纯粹独特走红，将举办四场展览，印证艺术拥有治愈与创造的力量。由此可知，“克里斯汀·哈泽尔：一位88岁老人的艺术旅程”可以概括全文的主题，适合作为最佳标题。 C A combination of infrared (红外的) imaging, thermal (热力的) imaging and color cameras on an unmanned drone, along with an AI interpreting system, can help search-and-rescue teams locate, identify and track missing people in the wilderness. The experimental system helps search-and-rescue teams find where a missing person is and determine whether they are hurt or even alive. When the AI system finds a person, it analyzes images to determine whether the individual is upright or lying on the ground. It distinguishes parts of the person’s body, identifying the person’s head and the body’s position. It then zeroes in on the forehead and collects forehead temperature readings. Next, the AI model assesses whether the person is conscious (有意识的) or unconscious and identifies abnormal temperatures that could indicate critical situations or death — all imperatives for a search-and-rescue team. It is critical to get accurate and timely information on the location of a missing person. The likelihood that the person will survive decreases sharply as time passes. An AI-enhanced drone can speed up search-and-rescue work significantly compared with the practice of sending teams of people out into the environment to search on foot, especially in poor weather situations or thick plants. Knowing whether a person is conscious allows rescuers to get better prepared, potentially saving lives. Researchers are developing AI-powered sound recognition for detecting screams for help, advanced thermal imaging for better nighttime vision and automatic drones that could act as first responders. Also under development are drones that can carry heavy loads, such as life-saving equipment, fly for up to 14 hours or perform real-time mapping of the ground below. 8. What can the rescue drones do to save missing people? A. Provide emergency supplies on site. B. Identify locations and assess conditions. C. Explore nature automatically with cameras. D. Send video and images to the people trapped. 9. What does the underlined word “imperatives” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Necessary tools. B. Medical treatment. C. Professional rescuers. D. Essential information. 10. Which of the following best describes the AI-enhanced rescue process? A. More creative. B. More efficient. C. More controllable. D. More complicated. 11. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To emphasize the importance of rescue teams. B. To highlight the possibilities of AI applications. C. To illustrate advances in rescue drone technology. D. To compare modern and traditional rescue methods. 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了一种结合红外成像、热成像和彩色摄像头以及AI解读系统的无人救援无人机技术，该技术能够帮助搜救团队定位、识别和追踪荒野中的失踪人员，并介绍了相关技术的未来发展方向。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“The experimental system helps search-and-rescue teams find where a missing person is and determine whether they are hurt or even alive. (该实验系统帮助搜救团队找到失踪者的位置，并判断他们是否受伤甚至是否还活着。)”以及第二段中“When the AI system finds a person, it analyzes images to determine whether the individual is upright or lying on the ground. It distinguishes parts of the person’s body, identifying the person’s head and the body’s position. It then zeroes in on the forehead and collects forehead temperature readings. Next, the AI model assesses whether the person is conscious (有意识的) or unconscious and identifies abnormal temperatures that could indicate critical situations or death (当人工智能系统识别出某个人时，会通过分析图像来判断该个体是站立状态还是卧地躺卧。该系统可区分人体各部位，准确识别头部位置及身体整体方位。随后系统将焦点锁定于前额，并采集前额温度读数。随后，该人工智能模型会评估该人员是否处于清醒或昏迷状态，并识别可能提示危重状况或死亡的异常体温。)”可知，救援无人机能够识别失踪者的位置并评估其状况。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中“It then zeroes in on the forehead and collects forehead temperature readings. Next, the AI model assesses whether the person is conscious (有意识的) or unconscious and identifies abnormal temperatures that could indicate critical situations or death — all imperatives for a search-and-rescue team. (随后系统将焦点锁定于前额，并采集前额温度读数。随后，该人工智能模型会评估该人员是否处于清醒或昏迷状态，并识别可能提示危重状况或死亡的异常体温——所有这些都是搜救团队的imperatives。)”可知，这些关于失踪者位置、身体姿态、意识状态和体温的信息对于搜救团队来说都是至关重要的必要信息。故imperatives意为“必要的信息”，即Essential information。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“An AI-enhanced drone can speed up search-and-rescue work significantly compared with the practice of sending teams of people out into the environment to search on foot, especially in poor weather situations or thick plants. (与派人进入环境徒步搜索的做法相比，AI增强的无人机可以显著加快搜救工作，尤其是在恶劣天气或茂密植物的情况下。)”可知，AI增强的救援流程相比传统方式更加高效。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段介绍无人机结合AI技术帮助搜救的原理，第二段详细说明AI系统的工作方式，第三段强调其高效性，以及第四段介绍未来发展方向，可知本文旨在说明救援无人机技术的进步。 D The rapid climate change we are experiencing today is mainly driven by greenhouse gases released by human activities. But new evidence from ancient Antarctic ice cores suggests this was not always the case over the past three million years. According to a new study in Nature, ocean temperatures may have had a greater influence on Earth’s climate than greenhouse gases at certain key transition periods. Researchers analysed ice cores from Antarctica’s Allan Hills, a blue ice area covering just one percent of the ice sheet. Strong winds there blow away fresh snow, leaving ancient glacial ice exposed. The Allan Hills has hardly shifted in any direction, making it ideal for collecting ice as old as 6 million years. Ice cores serve as natural “archives (档案)” of Earth’s climate. Each layer traps tiny air bubbles that reveal historic atmospheric gas composition, while certain chemical elements can hint at past ocean temperatures. Led by climate scientist Sarah Shackleton, a team used noble gases (惰性气体) trapped in the ice cores to estimate ancient ocean heat. Scientific measurements show the ocean cooled dramatically around 2.7 million years ago, matching a major climate shift that caused widespread glacier formation in the northern half of the Earth. Shackleton’s team also discovered something surprising about ancient climate change. They found an apparent decoupling between sea surface temperatures and average ocean temperatures. Normally, if greenhouse gases were the main cause of climate change, both the surface and deep ocean would warm or cool at the same time. But in their data, that didn’t happen. The surface temperature changed quickly, while the deep ocean stayed relatively stable. This difference suggests that ancient climate shifts were not driven mainly by greenhouse gases — other factors, like changes in ocean currents, may have played a bigger role. However, interpreting these old ice cores still has limitations. Experts say they are so complex that more research is needed to fully decode their secrets. 12. What does the author try to illustrate by mentioning the Allan Hills in Paragraph 2? A. The formation process of Antarctic blue ice. B. The ideal condition for collecting ice samples. C. The influence of strong winds on global climate. D. The general distribution of Antarctica’s ice sheet. 13. What is implied in Sarah Shackleton’s research? A. Noble gases directly caused glacier formation. B. Ocean heat remained stable 2.7 million years ago. C. Climate shift led to the drop of ocean temperature. D. Changes in ocean heat contributed to a climate shift. 14. What does the underlined word “decoupling” in Paragraph 4 most probably mean? A. Being connected. B. Being consistent. C. Being mismatched. D. Being dominated. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. Blue Ice Areas Offer Access to Ancient Ice B. Greenhouse Gases Drive Modern Warming C. Antarctic Ice Cores Reveal a Different Climate Story D. Ocean Temperatures Drove Most Past Climate Changes 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. C 15. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍如今气候变化主要由人类排放的温室气体造成，但南极古老冰芯的新研究表明，在过去三百万年的关键气候过渡期，海洋温度对地球气候的影响曾大于温室气体，并介绍了研究样本、实验发现以及该研究尚存局限性。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据原文第二段“The Allan Hills has hardly shifted in any direction, making it ideal for collecting ice as old as 6 million years.(艾伦山几乎没有发生任何位移，这让这里成为采集长达600万年古冰层的理想之地。)”可知，作者提及艾伦山是为了说明采集冰样本的理想环境。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据原文第三段“Scientific measurements show the ocean cooled dramatically around 2.7 million years ago, matching a major climate shift that caused widespread glacier formation in the northern half of the Earth.(科学测量显示，约270万年前海洋大幅降温，这与一次重大气候转变相吻合，该转变致使北半球大面积形成冰川。)”可知，海洋热量的变化促成了一次气候转变。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据原文第四段“Normally, if greenhouse gases were the main cause of climate change, both the surface and deep ocean would warm or cool at the same time. But in their data, that didn’t happen. The surface temperature changed quickly, while the deep ocean stayed relatively stable.(正常情况下，如果温室气体是气候变化的主因，海洋表层与深海会同步升温或降温。但他们的数据并非如此。表层温度变化迅速，深海却相对稳定。)”及“They found an apparent decoupling between sea surface temperatures and average ocean temperatures.(他们发现，海洋表层温度与海洋平均温度之间存在明显的decoupling。)”可知，表层海温和平均海洋温度变化不一致，decoupling意为“不相匹配”。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据原文第一段“But new evidence from ancient Antarctic ice cores suggests this was not always the case over the past three million years. According to a new study in Nature, ocean temperatures may have had a greater influence on Earth’s climate than greenhouse gases at certain key transition periods.(但来自南极远古冰芯的新证据表明，在过去三百万年间，情况并非一贯如此。发表于《自然》期刊的一项新研究表明，在某些关键气候过渡时期，海洋温度对地球气候的影响或许超过了温室气体。)”以及后文全部冰芯相关实验内容可知，全文围绕南极冰芯展开，对比现代气候成因，提出古代气候演变存在不同主导因素， 故文章最佳标题为“南极冰芯揭示不一样的气候过往”。 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。 Annotating (批注) helps you take an active part in reading. As you read, you begin a direct “dialogue” with the author. ____16____ Here are some ways to make your reading full of thinking from beginning to end: Throw away your highlighter. Highlighting can seem like an active reading strategy. But it can actually distract you from the business of learning and affects your comprehension. Those bright yellow lines you put on a printed page one day can seem strange the next time. ____17____ Mark up the margins (页边空白) of your text with words and phrases. Take down the ideas that occur to you and make notes about things that seem important to you. ____18____ Later in the term, when you are reviewing for a test or project, your marginalia will be useful memory triggers. Develop your own symbol system. It can consist of the marks you are familiar with. ____19____ They work much like notes in the margins. They will be very useful when you return to a text to find the perfect passage for a paper. They will also help when you are preparing for a big exam. ____20____ They are reminders of the unfinished business you still have with a text: something to ask during class discussion, or to come to terms with on your own, once you’ve had a chance to digest the material further or have done other course reading. A. Write the questions down. B. Connect reading with your own life. C. You can record how you feel during reading. D. Symbol system can be used in different situations. E. These marks help you record key ideas as you read. F. This helps you form a deeper impression of the content. G. However, pens or pencils will allow you to do more to a text. 【答案】16. C 17. G 18. F 19. E 20. A 【解析】 【导语】这篇文主要介绍了阅读批注的多种实用方法，不建议只用荧光笔，可在页边做笔记、自创标记符号、记录疑问，以此深度思考文本、方便后续复习。 【16题详解】 上文“Annotating (批注) helps you take an active part in reading. As you read, you begin a direct “dialogue” with the author.( 批注可以帮助你积极参与阅读。当你阅读时，便与作者展开了一种直接的“对话”。)”点明批注的本质是读者与作者展开直接“对话”，C 选项“You can record how you feel during reading.(你可以记录阅读过程中的感受。)”是对“与作者对话”的具体阐释 —— 批注就是把阅读时的所思所感记录下来，既承接了前文的核心概念，又自然引出后文具体的批注方法，逻辑衔接顺畅。 【17题详解】 本段核心观点是“Throw away your highlighter.(扔掉荧光笔。)”，前文“Highlighting can seem like an active reading strategy. But it can actually distract you from the business of learning and affects your comprehension. Those bright yellow lines you put on a printed page one day can seem strange the next time. (用荧光笔标记看似是一种主动的阅读策略，但实际上它可能分散你对学习本身的注意力，并影响理解力。你今天在打印页面上画出的那些鲜艳黄色线条，下次再翻看的时候可能会显得很奇怪。)”详细论述了荧光笔分散注意力、影响理解、后续参考价值低等弊端。G 选项“However, pens or pencils will allow you to do more to a text.( 然而，笔或铅笔能让你对文本进行更多操作。)”以 However 转折，指出钢笔、铅笔能实现更丰富的批注功能，既承接了“荧光笔无用”的论述，又自然过渡到下文的页边批注等正确方法，承上启下。 【18题详解】 上文“Take down the ideas that occur to you and make notes about things that seem important to you.( 写下脑海中闪现的想法，记录下你觉得重要的内容。)”说明页边批注的具体做法：记下想法、标注重点内容；下文“Later in the term, when you are reviewing for a test or project, your marginalia will be useful memory triggers.( 学期后期，在复习考试或项目时，这些边批将成为有效的记忆触发点。)”指出页边笔记在复习时能成为有效的记忆触发点。F 选项 “This helps you form a deeper impression of the content.(这有助于你对内容形成更深刻的印象。)”承接了做批注的直接作用，和后文“复习时辅助记忆”构成层层递进的逻辑：做批注→加深印象→复习时唤醒记忆，链条完整。 【19题详解】 本段围绕“Develop your own symbol system.( 建立属于自己的符号系统。)”展开，上文“It can consist of the marks you are familiar with.( 它可以由你熟悉的标记组成。)”说明符号由自己熟悉的标记构成。E选项“These marks help you record key ideas as you read.( 这些标记有助于你在阅读时记录关键思想。)”中These marks 精准指代前文的符号标记，说明符号的核心作用是记录关键观点，既呼应了前文的符号系统，又和后句“它们的作用和页边笔记类似”形成对应，衔接紧密。 【20题详解】 空格位于段首，是本段的主题句。后文“They are reminders of the unfinished business you still have with a text: something to ask during class discussion, or to come to terms with on your own, once you’ve had a chance to digest the material further or have done other course reading.( 它们是你尚未完成的文本任务的提醒：可以作为课堂讨论中的提问内容，或在你进一步消化材料、完成其他课程阅读后，自行去面对和处理的问题。)”说明这类内容是阅读中“未完成的事项”：比如课堂讨论要提出的问题、待进一步消化的内容。A 选项“Write the questions down.(把问题写下来。)”精准概括了本段核心，和后文的something to ask、unfinished business形成完美对应。 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。 Fourteen years ago, a doctor told me: “You have Parkinson’s (帕金森病).” I remember his ____21____ before I remember his words: calm, certain, kind.

The smell of sizzling patties and crispy fries lingered (弥漫) in the air, and the place was packed with folks rushing to grab a quick meal. I’d just gotten off a long morning at work, and my stomach was empty as I finally reached the front of the line and got my order-a burger, fries, and a cold drink. As I set the tray (托盘) down on a small table by the window, I glanced over and saw two firefighters in the corner. Their uniforms were heavy with faint spots, like they’d just stepped away from a smoky scene, and their boots still held a hint of damp from the morning dew. They stood in the back of the line, shoulders relaxed but eyes tired. I was just about to pick up my burger-the cheese melted perfectly-when a loud, sharp siren (警报) cut through the noise of the restaurant. The two firefighters froze for half a second, and then moved. No hesitation, no exchange of words — just muscle memory. One grabbed his helmet off the nearby counter, the other adjusted his radio on his shoulder, and they turned toward the door, their steps quickening. I watched them go, and my fork paused mid-air. My empty stomach served as a quiet reminder of how long I’d waited for this meal. I’d stood in that line for 15 minutes, my feet aching from the morning’s work. Giving them my lunch meant I would have to wait again-maybe another line, maybe my break slipping away faster. I bit my lip, staring at the tray. Then I thought of their uniforms, the spots, the way they’d act upon hearing the siren like it was a call they couldn’t ignore. They didn’t get to pause for a meal when emergencies hit. They’d probably go hours without eating, running from one call to the next. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 My hesitation melted away. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I went back to the counter, only to find the manager was waiting for me. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 My hesitation melted away. I grabbed the tray and hurried after the two firefighters, calling out softly, “Excuse me!” They paused at the door, turning with slight surprise. I held out the tray, smiling, “You guys must be in a rush — take this. It’s not much, but it’ll keep you going.” One of them hesitated for a second, then nodded gratefully, taking the tray. “Thank you, really,” he said, before they rushed out into the street, the siren growing louder as they went. I stood there for a moment, my stomach still growling, but my chest felt light. I went back to the counter, only to find the manager was waiting for me. He smiled warmly, holding up a new tray with a burger, fries, and a drink. “Saw what you did for the firefighters,” he said, handing it over. “This one’s on the house. We need more people like you.” I was shocked, then grateful, taking the tray. “Thank you so much,” I replied. As I sat back down by the window, biting into the burger, the taste felt sweeter than before. Sometimes, giving up a small thing didn’t just help others — it filled your own heart, too. 【解析】 【导语】文章以人物为线索展开，讲述市中心快餐店午间繁忙，作者下班后买了午餐，看到两位刚可能出完任务、面露疲惫的消防员排队。警报响起，消防员立刻行动，作者虽不舍排队换来的午餐，但想到他们应急时难以吃饭，内心纠结。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①根据第一段首句“我的犹豫消失了。”可知，下文可描写作者追上两名消防员并把自己的食物拿给他们，消防员表示感谢，作者虽然饿着，但心情舒畅。 ②根据第二段首句“我回到柜台，却发现经理正在等我。”可知，接下来可描写经理被作者的行为感动，为作者准备好了餐食，以及作者的感悟。 2.续写线索：犹豫消失——追上消防员——递上食物——消防员感激——作者心情舒畅——老板等着作者——递给作者准备好的食物——解释原因——作者感悟 3.词类激活 行为类 ①抓住：grab/get hold of ②看见：see/notice ③回答：reply/respond 情绪类 ①感激地：gratefully/with gratitude ②心情舒畅的：feel light/feel lighthearted 【点睛】【高分句型1】They paused at the door, turning with slight surprise.（运用了现在分词作状语） 【高分句型2】I stood there for a moment, my stomach still growling, but my chest felt light.（运用了独立主格结构） 【高分句型3】 As I sat back down by the window, biting into the burger, the taste felt sweeter than before.（运用了as引导的时间状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026年下期高二英语文化核心素养测试 第一节（共5小题：每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话读两遍。 1.

B Over four decades as an art organizer, publisher, and gallerist, Matthew Higgs has nurtured countless artists — including rising contemporaries in the 1990s — and supported creators from non-traditional backgrounds. His most meaningful discovery yet is his 88-year-old mother, Christine Hazell, who lives with progressive memory loss and only began drawing six months ago. The journey began when Higgs’ sister Gaby, an architect, suggested Hazell copy family photos with leftover colored pencils to occupy her days. Hazell soon created over 200 portraits of loved ones and their dog, drawing daily for 10 minutes to two hours. Gaby shared the works with Higgs, who was fascinated: as director of New York’s White Columns, he recognized their significance, especially since Hazell no longer recognizes family but remains fully focused in drawing their faces. Higgs shared the drawings on Instagram, sparking viral praise — including praise from famous artists. Hazell’s unique style, which “spoils” photo perfection by reimagining subjects, has secured four upcoming exhibitions: a York restaurant-gallery’s debut showcase of her Yorkshire-inspired portraits, a London alternative art space’s group display, an East Yorkshire outsider art gallery’s summer exhibition, and a feature at Higgs’ own New York institution. Curators hail her work as “magical” and “the best outsider art in Yorkshire”, praising its purity and lack of commercial motive. For Higgs, Hazell’s journey proves universal creativity: “Give someone time, encouragement, and resources, and it will most likely happen.” As her memory fades, her artistic confidence and visual clarity only grow — a moving proof of art’s transformative power. 4. What do we know about Matthew Higgs? A. He’s a successful modern artist. B. He’s a supporter of many artists. C. He’s a specialist in memory loss. D. He’s a painting teacher of his mother. 5. What can we infer about Christine Hazell’s drawing practice? A. She started drawing to kill the time. B. She draws portraits for medical purposes. C. Her drawing helps her recognize her family. D. She uses professional art supplies for creation. 6. Why are Hazell’s paintings highly praised? A. They carry her love for her family. B. They are creative and pure. C. They’re recognized by professionals. D. They look the same as the photos. 7. Which is the best title for the passage? A. Matthew Higgs: Lifelong Art Nurturer B. Widely Shared Art: From Photos to Exhibitions C. Christine Hazell: An 88-Year-Old’s Art Journey D. Yorkshire’s Outsider Art: Widely Praised Works C A combination of infrared (红外的) imaging, thermal (热力的) imaging and color cameras on an unmanned drone, along with an AI interpreting system, can help search-and-rescue teams locate, identify and track missing people in the wilderness. The experimental system helps search-and-rescue teams find where a missing person is and determine whether they are hurt or even alive. When the AI system finds a person, it analyzes images to determine whether the individual is upright or lying on the ground. It distinguishes parts of the person’s body, identifying the person’s head and the body’s position. It then zeroes in on the forehead and collects forehead temperature readings. Next, the AI model assesses whether the person is conscious (有意识的) or unconscious and identifies abnormal temperatures that could indicate critical situations or death — all imperatives for a search-and-rescue team. It is critical to get accurate and timely information on the location of a missing person. The likelihood that the person will survive decreases sharply as time passes. An AI-enhanced drone can speed up search-and-rescue work significantly compared with the practice of sending teams of people out into the environment to search on foot, especially in poor weather situations or thick plants. Knowing whether a person is conscious allows rescuers to get better prepared, potentially saving lives. Researchers are developing AI-powered sound recognition for detecting screams for help, advanced thermal imaging for better nighttime vision and automatic drones that could act as first responders. Also under development are drones that can carry heavy loads, such as life-saving equipment, fly for up to 14 hours or perform real-time mapping of the ground below. 8. What can the rescue drones do to save missing people? A. Provide emergency supplies on site. B. Identify locations and assess conditions. C. Explore nature automatically with cameras. D. Send video and images to the people trapped. 9. What does the underlined word “imperatives” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Necessary tools. B. Medical treatment. C. Professional rescuers. D. Essential information. 10. Which of the following best describes the AI-enhanced rescue process? A. More creative. B. More efficient. C. More controllable. D. More complicated. 11. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To emphasize the importance of rescue teams. B. To highlight the possibilities of AI applications. C. To illustrate advances in rescue drone technology. D. To compare modern and traditional rescue methods. D The rapid climate change we are experiencing today is mainly driven by greenhouse gases released by human activities. But new evidence from ancient Antarctic ice cores suggests this was not always the case over the past three million years. According to a new study in Nature, ocean temperatures may have had a greater influence on Earth’s climate than greenhouse gases at certain key transition periods. Researchers analysed ice cores from Antarctica’s Allan Hills, a blue ice area covering just one percent of the ice sheet. Strong winds there blow away fresh snow, leaving ancient glacial ice exposed. The Allan Hills has hardly shifted in any direction, making it ideal for collecting ice as old as 6 million years. Ice cores serve as natural “archives (档案)” of Earth’s climate. Each layer traps tiny air bubbles that reveal historic atmospheric gas composition, while certain chemical elements can hint at past ocean temperatures. Led by climate scientist Sarah Shackleton, a team used noble gases (惰性气体) trapped in the ice cores to estimate ancient ocean heat. Scientific measurements show the ocean cooled dramatically around 2.7 million years ago, matching a major climate shift that caused widespread glacier formation in the northern half of the Earth. Shackleton’s team also discovered something surprising about ancient climate change. They found an apparent decoupling between sea surface temperatures and average ocean temperatures. Normally, if greenhouse gases were the main cause of climate change, both the surface and deep ocean would warm or cool at the same time. But in their data, that didn’t happen. The surface temperature changed quickly, while the deep ocean stayed relatively stable. This difference suggests that ancient climate shifts were not driven mainly by greenhouse gases — other factors, like changes in ocean currents, may have played a bigger role. However, interpreting these old ice cores still has limitations. Experts say they are so complex that more research is needed to fully decode their secrets. 12. What does the author try to illustrate by mentioning the Allan Hills in Paragraph 2? A. The formation process of Antarctic blue ice. B. The ideal condition for collecting ice samples. C. The influence of strong winds on global climate. D. The general distribution of Antarctica’s ice sheet. 13. What is implied in Sarah Shackleton’s research? A. Noble gases directly caused glacier formation. B. Ocean heat remained stable 2.7 million years ago. C. Climate shift led to the drop of ocean temperature. D. Changes in ocean heat contributed to a climate shift. 14. What does the underlined word “decoupling” in Paragraph 4 most probably mean? A. Being connected. B. Being consistent. C. Being mismatched. D. Being dominated. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. Blue Ice Areas Offer Access to Ancient Ice B. Greenhouse Gases Drive Modern Warming C. Antarctic Ice Cores Reveal a Different Climate Story D. Ocean Temperatures Drove Most Past Climate Changes 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。 Annotating (批注) helps you take an active part in reading.

The smell of sizzling patties and crispy fries lingered (弥漫) in the air, and the place was packed with folks rushing to grab a quick meal. I’d just gotten off a long morning at work, and my stomach was empty as I finally reached the front of the line and got my order-a burger, fries, and a cold drink. As I set the tray (托盘) down on a small table by the window, I glanced over and saw two firefighters in the corner. Their uniforms were heavy with faint spots, like they’d just stepped away from a smoky scene, and their boots still held a hint of damp from the morning dew. They stood in the back of the line, shoulders relaxed but eyes tired. I was just about to pick up my burger-the cheese melted perfectly-when a loud, sharp siren (警报) cut through the noise of the restaurant. The two firefighters froze for half a second, and then moved. No hesitation, no exchange of words — just muscle memory. One grabbed his helmet off the nearby counter, the other adjusted his radio on his shoulder, and they turned toward the door, their steps quickening. I watched them go, and my fork paused mid-air. My empty stomach served as a quiet reminder of how long I’d waited for this meal. I’d stood in that line for 15 minutes, my feet aching from the morning’s work. Giving them my lunch meant I would have to wait again-maybe another line, maybe my break slipping away faster. I bit my lip, staring at the tray. Then I thought of their uniforms, the spots, the way they’d act upon hearing the siren like it was a call they couldn’t ignore. They didn’t get to pause for a meal when emergencies hit. They’d probably go hours without eating, running from one call to the next. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 My hesitation melted away. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I went back to the counter, only to find the manager was waiting for me. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
