Suddenly someone shouted, “Today at 1:10 there will be auditions (试演) for a musical show.” My friends all jumped up in excitement and asked me, “Will you go, Rasleen?” Without much thought, I agreed. Even though musical shows weren’t really my thing, I wanted to be with my friends. At 1:10 p.m., there was a line outside the audition room. Standing in the line, I suddenly felt a little nervous. What if I wasn’t any good? I was taking a risk. Soon it was my turn. I said some lines from the musical show called Musicville and sang a bit. The teachers smiled at me and asked what kind of role I wanted to play. I felt like I had a chance, so I said, “A big role.” A week later, the list came out. I got the main role, Melody! I was really happy, but also realized how much work it would be. I was in almost all of the 13 scenes in the show and I had to memorize all my lines before the practice. Then in the following days, I stayed after school to practice. I ate snacks with the other performers. And I made new friends. Two months later, we were all ready for the performance. We got to perform in front of our schoolmates, teachers and parents. When I saw their smiles, I felt very confident. That confidence stayed with me and made me feel braver. I felt like I could try more things. So I joined a basketball team, I took part in other sports like soccer and handball, and I even joined a dance group. I also started helping out in class and in the library. I became more and more active. I realized that by trying something new, I can have fun—even if it means stepping out of my comfort zone. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 6. Why did Rasleen decide to audition for the musical show? A.

While bad seafood might cause a stomachache, the trip itself can also upset your stomach. Your stomach is full of tiny helpers that work to digest (消化) your food. But when you travel, things change. Sitting for too long, changing time zones (时区), and not sleeping on time can all make your stomach feel uncomfortable. For one thing, sitting on a plane or in a car for hours can squeeze your stomach. This slows down how food moves, and your stomach may feel uncomfortable. Also, your body has a “daily clock” that helps it know when to eat, sleep, and even poop (排便) But when you travel far, this clock gets mixed up. You might not go to the bathroom like you normally do. Sleep matters, too. If you don’t get enough sleep, your stomach can become upset. You may even feel like eating a lot of sweet snacks, which can make things worse. The good news? You can stop stomach troubles before they start! Try standing up and stretching (伸展) every hour on the plane or during long car rides. If you’re flying across time zones, begin changing your bedtime a few days early to help your body get used to the new time. And before your trip, be sure to sleep well every night. A rested body is a happy body, and that means a happy stomach, too. So remember: move, sleep, and plan early. That way, your trip can be full of fun, not bathroom runs! 11. According to Paragraph 2, what can upset your stomach when you travel? ①Changing time zones. ②Sitting for a long time. ③Drinking too little water. ④Sleeping at different times than usual. A. ①②③ B. ①②④ C. ②③④ D. ①③④ 12. What does the underlined word “squeeze” in Paragraph 3 mean in Chinese? A. 放松 B. 保护 C. 清洗 D. 挤压 13. If someone sleeps poorly before a trip, what might happen? A. They may want to eat sweet snacks. B. Their ability to digest food may improve. C. Their body temperature might rise a little. D. They might not notice time zone changes. 14. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The best foods to eat while traveling. B. Different kinds of stomach problems. C. The causes of an upset stomach during travel. D. Ways to help your stomach feel better when traveling. 15. What is the writer’s purpose in writing this passage? A. To show how digestion works. B. To warn people not to travel too often. C. To describe how food can make the stomach feel bad. D. To explain stomach problems during trips and give advice. 【答案】11. B 12. D 13. A 14. D 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述旅行时胃部不适的原因，长时间久坐、时区变化、睡眠不足都会影响肠胃，同时给出了预防胃部不适的办法。 【11题详解】 原文第二段“Sitting for too long, changing time zones, and not sleeping on time can all make your stomach feel uncomfortable.”，这句话说明久坐、时区变化、睡眠不规律会让胃部不适，对应①②④。 【12题详解】 原文第三段“For one thing, sitting on a plane or in a car for hours can squeeze your stomach. This slows down how food moves, and your stomach may feel uncomfortable.”，长时间坐在飞机或者汽车里会挤压胃部，食物蠕动变慢，由此猜测“squeeze”词义为“挤压”。 【13题详解】 原文第三段“If you don’t get enough sleep, your stomach can become upset. You may even feel like eating a lot of sweet snacks, which can make things worse.”，说明睡眠不足时，你会想吃很多甜食。 【14题详解】 原文第四段“The good news? You can stop stomach troubles before they start! Try standing up and stretching every hour on the plane or during long car rides.”，本段介绍了几种方法，用来预防、缓解旅行途中胃部不适。 【15题详解】 全文开篇介绍旅行会引发肠胃问题，中间分析原因，最后给出解决办法，因此作者写作目的是解释旅行中的胃部问题并给出建议。 D AI is becoming more available to the public. ____16____ The company OpenAI created it in 2022. ChatGPT can answer questions and create different kinds of passages like stories. It’s of great help! ____17____ Rana el Kaliouby is an AI expert. She has been thinking about the big question for more than 20 years. She studies machine learning and works with another expert Rosalind Picard. Together, the two experts tried to bring emotional intelligence (情商) to AI. They noticed that a big part of human communication is not about words, but about facial expressions and body language. They developed tools to understand these nonverbal signals (非语言信号). In the beginning, they hoped these tools would help people with communication problems. ____18____ Now they use it in a driver monitoring system to help cut down car accidents. Rana el Kaliouby is now helping to shape the future of AI. She believes that the technology is good for humans, but she also sees where it can go wrong. “____19____ Computer programmers may build it into AI tools,” she said. “If AI tools make decisions with bias (偏见), the results could be bad for people in the real world.” ____20____ She imagines an AI tool can act as a teacher or a friend if we make sure it understands and respects human feelings. “I do worry that it would take away human relationships,” Rana el Kaliouby said. “But when it comes to AI, my idea is always the same: ‘humans first’.” 根据材料内容，从下面五个选项中选出能填入文中空缺处的最佳选项，使文章意思通顺、内容完整。 A. ChatGPT is a widely used AI tool. B. However, Rana el Kaliouby is still hopeful. C. One of the biggest problems about AI is bias. D. Soon, they realized that their technology could have other uses, too. E. People are both excited and worried about how AI might change our lives. 【答案】16. A 17. E 18. D 19. C 20. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍人工智能专家Rana el Kaliouby的研究，她致力于赋予人工智能情商，同时探讨人工智能存在偏见的隐患以及她对人工智能未来的看法。 【16题详解】 后文“The company OpenAI created it in 2022. ChatGPT can answer questions and create different kinds of passages like stories.”，开始介绍ChatGPT的研发与功能，A选项“ChatGPT is a widely used Al tool.”引出介绍对象ChatGPT，起到总起作用。 【17题详解】 空后“Rana el Kaliouby is an AI expert. She has been thinking about the big question for more than 20 years.”，后文介绍这位AI专家二十多年一直在思考这个重大问题，E选项“People are both excited and worried about how AI might change our lives.”抛出大众对AI的复杂态度，就是专家思考的“大问题”，承上启下。 【18题详解】 空前最后一句、空后一句“In the beginning, they hoped these tools would help people with communication problems. … Now they use it in a driver monitoring system to help cut down car accidents.”，一开始工具用于帮助有沟通障碍的人，现在用在驾驶员监控系统，说明发现了别的用途，D选项“Soon, they realized that their technology could have other uses, too.”衔接前后。 【19题详解】 空后“If AI tools make decisions with bias (偏见), the results could be bad for people in the real world.”，后文直接解释如果AI带着偏见做决定会产生不良后果，C选项“One of the biggest problems about AI is bias.”引出“bias（偏见）”这个核心话题。 【20题详解】 空后“She imagines, an AI tool can act as a teacher or a friend if we make sure it understands and respects human feelings.”，前文提到AI存在隐患，B选项“However, Rana el Kaliouby is still hopeful.”用however转折，引出她对AI美好的设想，逻辑转折通顺。 三. 完形填空 (每题1分，共15分) A mother of two girls, named Tutu, started a business in Changsha, Hunan Province, last year.

And never put off what can be done today till tomorrow. 【答案】46. means 47. an 48. but 49. to 50. of 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文，围绕把握当下、珍惜时间展开，阐述现在就是未来，号召我们珍惜每分每秒。 【46题详解】 句意：但是你知道未来真正意味着什么吗？根据“But do you know what future really ____?”可知，宾语从句主语future是单数，句子为一般现在时，谓语动词mean要使用第三人称单数形式means，因此填means。 【47题详解】 句意：有一句古老的英语谚语：“赢得时间，赢得生命。”根据“There is ____ old English saying”可知，saying是可数名词单数，old是以元音音素开头，要用不定冠词an表示“一句”，因此填an。 【48题详解】 句意：我们常说“时间就是金钱”，但是它比金钱更有价值。根据“Time is money, ____ it is more valuable than money”可知，前后分句存在转折关系，but作连词，表示“但是”，因此填but。 【49题详解】 句意：作为学生，我们应该努力学习去创造属于我们自己的光明未来。根据“we should work hard ____ create a bright future of our own”可知，此处用不定式to作目的状语，表示努力学习的目的，因此填to。 【50题详解】 句意：我们应该充分利用每一小时，做今天的主人。根据“We should make the best use ____ every hour”可知，make the best use of是固定搭配，意为“充分利用”，因此填of。 五. 补全对话 (每题2分，共10分) A: Mary, is that you?

Suddenly someone shouted, “Today at 1:10 there will be auditions (试演) for a musical show.” My friends all jumped up in excitement and asked me, “Will you go, Rasleen?” Without much thought, I agreed. Even though musical shows weren’t really my thing, I wanted to be with my friends. At 1:10 p.m., there was a line outside the audition room. Standing in the line, I suddenly felt a little nervous. What if I wasn’t any good? I was taking a risk. Soon it was my turn. I said some lines from the musical show called Musicville and sang a bit. The teachers smiled at me and asked what kind of role I wanted to play. I felt like I had a chance, so I said, “A big role.” A week later, the list came out. I got the main role, Melody! I was really happy, but also realized how much work it would be. I was in almost all of the 13 scenes in the show and I had to memorize all my lines before the practice. Then in the following days, I stayed after school to practice. I ate snacks with the other performers. And I made new friends. Two months later, we were all ready for the performance. We got to perform in front of our schoolmates, teachers and parents. When I saw their smiles, I felt very confident. That confidence stayed with me and made me feel braver. I felt like I could try more things. So I joined a basketball team, I took part in other sports like soccer and handball, and I even joined a dance group. I also started helping out in class and in the library. I became more and more active. I realized that by trying something new, I can have fun—even if it means stepping out of my comfort zone. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 6. Why did Rasleen decide to audition for the musical show? A.

Friends are important for success. C. Trying new things can lead to growth. D. Staying in the comfort zone brings chances. C No one wants to go on a fun trip but end up spending the whole time running to the bathroom! While bad seafood might cause a stomachache, the trip itself can also upset your stomach. Your stomach is full of tiny helpers that work to digest (消化) your food. But when you travel, things change. Sitting for too long, changing time zones (时区), and not sleeping on time can all make your stomach feel uncomfortable. For one thing, sitting on a plane or in a car for hours can squeeze your stomach. This slows down how food moves, and your stomach may feel uncomfortable. Also, your body has a “daily clock” that helps it know when to eat, sleep, and even poop (排便) But when you travel far, this clock gets mixed up. You might not go to the bathroom like you normally do. Sleep matters, too. If you don’t get enough sleep, your stomach can become upset. You may even feel like eating a lot of sweet snacks, which can make things worse. The good news? You can stop stomach troubles before they start! Try standing up and stretching (伸展) every hour on the plane or during long car rides. If you’re flying across time zones, begin changing your bedtime a few days early to help your body get used to the new time. And before your trip, be sure to sleep well every night. A rested body is a happy body, and that means a happy stomach, too. So remember: move, sleep, and plan early. That way, your trip can be full of fun, not bathroom runs! 11. According to Paragraph 2, what can upset your stomach when you travel? ①Changing time zones. ②Sitting for a long time. ③Drinking too little water. ④Sleeping at different times than usual. A. ①②③ B. ①②④ C. ②③④ D. ①③④ 12. What does the underlined word “squeeze” in Paragraph 3 mean in Chinese? A. 放松 B. 保护 C. 清洗 D. 挤压 13. If someone sleeps poorly before a trip, what might happen? A. They may want to eat sweet snacks. B. Their ability to digest food may improve. C. Their body temperature might rise a little. D. They might not notice time zone changes. 14. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The best foods to eat while traveling. B. Different kinds of stomach problems. C. The causes of an upset stomach during travel. D. Ways to help your stomach feel better when traveling. 15. What is the writer’s purpose in writing this passage? A. To show how digestion works. B. To warn people not to travel too often. C. To describe how food can make the stomach feel bad. D. To explain stomach problems during trips and give advice.

ChatGPT is a widely used AI tool. B. However, Rana el Kaliouby is still hopeful. C. One of the biggest problems about AI is bias. D. Soon, they realized that their technology could have other uses, too. E.
