In 2010, Hua’s father rented more than 13.3 hectares of land in a village. He used the land for conventional farming. However, a lack of innovation made it hard for him to run the farm. In the hope of saving her father’s farm, Hua in 2013 enrolled in Jiangsu Vocational College of Agriculture and Forestry and majored in horticultural (园艺) technology. After her graduation in 2016, Hua and four like-minded friends joined her father’s farm. Almost immediately, they had to deal with poor sales. After visiting various markets, they realized they had to innovate their farming techniques. They spent the next 11 months transforming the farm into an ecological circular agriculture base. The transformation was a turning point; since then, the farm has generated an output value of 32 million yuan annually. As part of her farm management, Hua has focused on technological innovation and application. In 2018, some farmers’ strawberry seedlings died, which resulted in massive losses. Hua decided to identify the cause. She spent three months testing hundreds of formulas, until she found the right culture medium formula for strawberry seedlings. She helped the farmers avoid future losses, and she improved both strawberry yield and quality. Hua has not hesitated to share the technologies she has developed with other farmers. She organized a team to provide assistance and technical guidance to farmers. The team is composed of 49 young graduates, all of whom majored in agriculture. She has also provided technological training to more than 22,000 people, supported more than 700 farmers in growing crops and helped farmers increase their incomes by a combined 120 million yuan. When asked about her plans for the future, Hua says, “I am willing to put down roots in the countryside, and to work in the fields. Rural areas have great potential, and agriculture will thrive. I will lead farmers and more young people to advance rural revitalization (振兴).” 24. What can be learned about Hua’s father’s farm? A. It mainly grew strawberries. B. It improved after technical reform. C. It earned big profits at first. D. It got government financial support. 25. What was the purpose of Hua’s experiments on formulas? A. To solve a crop crisis. B. To develop new varieties. C. To expand small farms. D. To advertise farmers’ products. 26. What does Hua’s words in the last paragraph imply? A. She wants to adjust her business goals. B. She plans to live and work in cities. C. She holds faith in rural agriculture. D. She intends to increase crop output. 27. How does the author present Hua Mengli’s story in the passage? A. By showing different farming styles. B. By comparing her with other local farmers. C. By introducing past farming history. D. By describing problems and her solutions. 【答案】24. B 25. A 26. C 27. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍华梦丽（音译）返乡助力父亲经营农场，创新农业技术，带动农户增收，立志扎根乡村助力乡村振兴的励志事迹。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“They spent the next 11 months transforming the farm into an ecological circular agriculture base. The transformation was a turning point; since then, the farm has generated an output value of 32 million yuan annually.(在接下来的11个月里，他们将这座农场改造成生态循环农业基地。这次改造是一个转折点；自此之后，该农场年产值达到 3200万元。)”可知，关于华梦丽父亲的农场，我们能得知农场经过技术革新后得到改善。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“In 2018, some farmers’ strawberry seedlings died, which resulted in massive losses. Hua decided to identify the cause. She spent three months testing hundreds of formulas, until she found the right culture medium formula for strawberry seedlings. She helped the farmers avoid future losses(2018年，一批农户的草莓幼苗大面积枯死，造成了巨额经济损失。华女士决心找出问题根源。她耗时三个月，调配、测试了上百组配方，最终研发出适配草莓幼苗的专用培育基质配方，帮农户们规避了后续种植损失。)”可知，华梦丽做配方试验的目的是解决农作物种植危机。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“When asked about her plans for the future, Hua says, “I am willing to put down roots in the countryside, and to work in the fields. Rural areas have great potential, and agriculture will thrive. I will lead farmers and more young people to advance rural revitalization (振兴).”(当被问及未来规划时，华说道：“我愿意扎根乡村、躬耕田野。乡村蕴藏巨大发展潜力，农业必将蓬勃兴旺。我会带领广大农户与更多青年投身乡村振兴事业。”)”可知，最后一段华梦丽的话暗示了她对乡村农业充满信心。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。本文按照时间顺序讲述青年农业从业者华梦丽的创业故事：父亲传统农场经营困难，她求学园艺专业返乡；面对滞销困境改造生态农场实现增收；草莓育苗危机中自主研发配方解决种植难题；无偿分享农业技术、带动大量农户致富，并立志扎根乡村、投身乡村振兴，塑造了懂技术、有担当、心系乡村的新农人形象。由此可知，文章通过叙述遇到的难题以及她对应的解决办法来讲述华梦丽的故事。 C Given the astonishing potential of AI to transform our lives, we all need to take action to deal with our AI-powered future, and this is where AI by Design: A Plan for Living with Artificial Intelligence comes in. This absorbing new book by Catriona Campbell is a practical roadmap addressing the challenges posed by the forthcoming AI revolution (变革). In the wrong hands, such a book could prove as complicated to process as the computer code (代码) that powers AI but, thankfully, Campbell has more than two decades’ professional experience translating the heady into the understandable. She writes from the practical angle of a business person rather than as an academic, making for a guide which is highly accessible and informative and which, by the close, will make you feel almost as smart as AI. As we soon come to learn from AI by Design, AI is already super-smart and will become more capable, moving from the current generation of “narrow-AI” to Artificial General Intelligence. From there, Campbell says, will come Artificial Dominant Intelligence. This is why Campbell has set out to raise awareness of AI and its future now — several decades before these developments are expected to take place. She says it is essential that we keep control of artificial intelligence, or risk being sidelined and perhaps even worse. Campbell’s point is to wake up those responsible for AI—the technology companies and world leaders—so they are on the same page as all the experts currently developing it. She explains we are at a “tipping point” in history and must act now to prevent an extinction-level event for humanity. We need to consider how we want our future with AI to pan out. Such structured thinking, followed by global regulation, will enable us to achieve greatness rather than our downfall. AI will affect us all, and if you only read one book on the subject, this is it. 28. What does the phrase “In the wrong hands” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. If read by someone poorly educated. B. If reviewed by someone ill-intentioned. C. If written by someone less competent. D. If translated by someone unacademic. 29. What is a feature of AI by Design according to the text? A.

It seems barely surprising that those who worry about taking tests do systematically worse than those who do not. What is, perhaps, surprising, according to research published recently in Psychological Science by Maria Theobald, is that it is not the pressure of the exam hall but the pressure of revision that causes the problem. Dr Theobald theorized that if anxiety was truly interfering with a student’s ability to transfer known information from brain to paper via pen, then those with high levels of it would perform worse in a real exam than in either a mock (模考) beforehand or during online practice sessions. Besides, she expected this performance-drop to correlate with levels of self-reported exam nerves. She therefore worked with 309 German medical students who were preparing for their final state exam, the most important that they take. This test consists of 230 questions split into three five-hour sessions over three days. All her volunteers sat a mock examination, clearly presented to them as such, 40 days before the real thing. To assess their levels of anxiety, they were asked, every day for 40 days in the run-up to the real exam and also on the day of that exam, to respond on a five-point scale to statements like, “I feel tense and nervous.” On the day of the mock they were similarly asked to rate statements like, “I worry whether I have studied enough.” What Dr Theobald found was not what she expected. Anxiety on the day of test did not predict exam performance at all. What did predict it was the level of knowledge a student displayed in the mock exam and the earlier digital-learning activities. Those who performed well in these also did well in the real thing, regardless of how anxious they were on the day. What actually hampered students, it turned out, were high levels of anxiety during the weeks before the exam took place. And this discovery is far-reaching, for it suggests a change of approach to revision by the anxious might help improve their results. Dr Theobald notes that test-anxiety is at its worst when students have low expectations of success and simultaneously (同时地) know that passing the exam is exceedingly important. 32. What is paragraph 2 of the text mainly about? A. The theoretical basis. B. The research result. C. The testing assumption. D. The experimental process. 33. What can we infer from the research? A. Anxiety before the exam brings better exam performance. B. Anxiety before the exam restricts students’ ability in exams. C. Anxiety on the day of the test predicts the result of the exam. D. Anxiety on the day of the test intervenes in students’ ability in exams. 34. What is the author’s attitude toward Dr Theobald’s study? A. Favorable. B. Unclear. C. Doubtful. D. Dismissive. 35. What will the following paragraph probably talk about according to the passage? A. How to carry out revision plans scientifically. B. How to reduce test-anxiety when reviewing. C. How to get satisfying scores well in exams. D. How to ease study pressure before tests. 【答案】32. C 33. B 34. A 35. B 【解析】 【导语】文章介绍了一项考试焦虑相关研究，指出影响考试成绩的是备考焦虑而非考场焦虑，并说明该研究的价值与焦虑高发的原因。 【32题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“Dr Theobald theorized that if anxiety was truly interfering with a student’s ability to transfer known information from brain to paper via pen, then those with high levels of it would perform worse in a real exam than in either a mock (模考) beforehand or during online practice sessions. Besides, she expected this performance-drop to correlate with levels of self-reported exam nerves.(西奥博尔德博士提出理论假设：如果焦虑确实会干扰学生将脑中已知知识通过笔书写到试卷上的能力，那么高度焦虑的学生在正式考试中的表现会比此前模考和线上练习时更差。此外，她推测这种成绩下滑会与学生自述的考试紧张程度相关)”可知，第二段主要介绍了研究者开展实验前的理论假设与猜想。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“What actually hampered students, it turned out, were high levels of anxiety during the weeks before the exam took place.(结果发现，真正阻碍学生发挥的是考试前数周的高度焦虑)”可知，考前的焦虑会限制学生的考试发挥、影响考试表现。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“And this discovery is far-reaching, for it suggests a change of approach to revision by the anxious might help improve their results.(这一发现意义深远，因为它表明焦虑的学生改变复习方式或许有助于提升成绩)”可知，作者认可这项研究的价值，对该研究持支持、赞同的态度。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Dr Theobald notes that test-anxiety is at its worst when students have low expectations of success and simultaneously (同时地) know that passing the exam is exceedingly important.(西奥博尔德博士指出，当学生对考试成功的预期较低，同时又深知通过考试至关重要时，考试焦虑会达到顶峰)”可知，文章结尾落脚于备考阶段的考试焦虑问题，下文最有可能介绍复习时如何缓解考试焦虑。 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。 Life is full of options, some unimportant, some significant. But sometimes it can be hard to make the proper choice. Many people ignore unseen barriers affecting their choices. ____36____ The first barrier: some of us just find it hard to make a choice. Alice Boyes, writing for Harvard Business Review, tells us this can be connected to seeking perfect results, where people attempt to find an ideal way to any problem and are unable to advance when they can’t find one. ____37____ However, as surprising as it may seem, this difficulty in deciding might actually help us make the correct ones. ____38____ Susan Krauss in Psychology Today reminds us that people often make bad decisions because they base them on fixed thoughts rather than the real situation. She highlights a paper by researcher Iris Schneider which finds that hesitant people are more likely to look at different viewpoints and use them to reach a nicer decision. The third barrier comes from our own intelligence. David Robson, speaking to the BBC’s Crowd Science, tells us that intelligence can sometimes prevent people from making the right decision. People sometimes use their intelligence to create reasonable explanations for unreasonable ideas. ____39____ Jeff Bezos supports this view. Tech CEO Jason Fried recalls the Amazon founder saying that the people who were right most of the time were those who frequently changed their minds. So, perhaps it is not hesitation but rather intelligence, combined with quick decision-making and fixed ideas, that actually prevents us from making good choices. ____40____ Being slow to decide, on the other hand, could help us select the best option. A. Another barrier comes from people’s fixed thinking patterns. B. So what exactly holds us back from making sound decisions? C. Intelligent people are less likely to make ill-advised decisions. D. He holds the view that modesty contributes to sound decisions. E. Making quick judgments is generally considered a smarter way. F. It appears that difficulty in choosing will stop us from wise decisions. G. All these studies make us rethink the value of hesitation in decision-making. 【答案】36. B 37. F 38. A 39. D 40. G 【解析】 【导语】文章介绍影响决策的三类隐性障碍，通过多项研究说明犹豫未必是坏事，快速决断、固化思维和高智商反而可能干扰我们做出正确选择。 【36题详解】 根据上文“Life is full of options, some unimportant, some significant. But sometimes it can be hard to make the proper choice. Many people ignore unseen barriers affecting their choices.(人生充满各种选择，有些微不足道，有些却意义重大。但有时做出正确抉择并不容易。许多人忽视了影响他们选择的无形障碍)”可知，前文提到很多人忽视影响选择的无形障碍，后文开始具体介绍第一个障碍，B项“那么究竟是什么阻碍我们做出正确的决定呢？”承上启下，符合语境。 【37题详解】 根据上文“The first barrier: some of us just find it hard to make a choice. Alice Boyes, writing for Harvard Business Review, tells us this can be connected to seeking perfect results, where people attempt to find an ideal way to any problem and are unable to advance when they can’t find one.(第一个障碍：有些人只是难以做出选择。《哈佛商业评论》的作者爱丽丝·博伊斯告诉我们，这可能与追求完美结果有关，人们试图为任何问题找到理想的方法，但当找不到时便无法前进)”以及后文“However, as surprising as it may seem, this difficulty in deciding might actually help us make the correct ones.(然而，尽管这听起来令人惊讶，这种决策上的困难实际上可能帮助我们做出正确的选择)”可知，前文提到第一个障碍是有些人很难做出选择，这和追求完美结果相关，后文转折说这种决策困难反而可能帮我们做正确选择，F项“看起来选择困难会阻止我们做出明智的决定”和后文的转折逻辑对应。 【38题详解】 根据后文“Susan Krauss in Psychology Today reminds us that people often make bad decisions because they base them on fixed thoughts rather than the real situation. She highlights a paper by researcher Iris Schneider which finds that hesitant people are more likely to look at different viewpoints and use them to reach a nicer decision.(《今日心理学》的苏珊·克劳斯提醒我们，人们常常做出错误决策，因为他们依据固定的想法而非实际情况来做选择。她强调了研究人员艾里斯·施耐德的一项研究论文，该论文指出犹豫不决的人更倾向于关注不同的观点，并利用这些观点做出更好的决定)”可知，空处位于段首，前文已经介绍了第一个障碍，本段后文提到人们做错误决定是因为基于固定思维而非实际情况，A项“另一个障碍来自人们的固定思维模式”引出本段的第二个障碍，符合逻辑。 【39题详解】 根据上文“The third barrier comes from our own intelligence. David Robson, speaking to the BBC’s Crowd Science, tells us that intelligence can sometimes prevent people from making the right decision. People sometimes use their intelligence to create reasonable explanations for unreasonable ideas.(第三个障碍来自我们自身的智慧。大卫·罗布森在接受BBC《大众科学》采访时告诉我们，有时智慧会阻碍人们做出正确的决定。人们有时会利用自己的智慧，为不合理的想法提供合理的解释)”以及后文“Jeff Bezos supports this view. Tech CEO Jason Fried recalls the Amazon founder saying that the people who were right most of the time were those who frequently changed their minds.(杰夫·贝佐斯支持这一观点。科技公司首席执行官杰森·弗里德回忆，这位亚马逊创始人曾说过，那些大多数时候都正确的人，往往是那些经常改变主意的人)”可知，前文提到高智商有时会阻碍人做正确决定，人们会用智商为不合理的想法找合理借口，后文提到贝佐斯支持该观点，还说正确的人是经常改变想法的人，D项“他认为谦逊有助于做出正确决定”中的指代和观点逻辑可衔接上下文。 【40题详解】 根据上文“So, perhaps it is not hesitation but rather intelligence, combined with quick decision-making and fixed ideas, that actually prevents us from making good choices.(所以，也许真正阻碍我们做出正确选择的并非犹豫，而是智力与快速决策、固执观念的结合)”以及后文“Being slow to decide, on the other hand, could help us select the best option.(另一方面，放慢决策有助于我们选择最佳方案)”可知，空处前文总结了阻碍好决策的因素是智商、快速决策和固化思维，后文说决策慢反而能帮我们选到最优选项，G项“所有这些研究让我们重新思考决策过程中犹豫的价值”可衔接总结前文，引出后文对犹豫正向作用的表述。 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。 Jason Joel’s life story is not just about running.

Suddenly, she remembered that the Lantern Festival would be the following Tuesday. A bright idea struck her, making her eyes light up instantly. Thursday came quickly, and the classroom was filled with joy and laughter. Most students brought snacks and small toys to share. When it was Li Yue’s turn, she stood up, holding a beautifully decorated wooden box. She opened it gently and took out a flat, folded piece of red paper. With a few quick, skillful folds and pulls, the paper magically turned into a delicate lantern frame. She placed a candle inside and lit it carefully. The gentle flame came alive, bathing the red lantern in warm light that spread throughout the classroom. “It’s incredible! What is it?” Emma, Li Yue’s deskmate, asked eagerly. Li Yue smiled and held up the lantern, introducing the Lantern Festival, its traditions of hanging lanterns, guessing riddles and eating a kind of sweet glutinous rice (糯米) balls called yuanxiao, and how red lanterns symbolize hope and reunion in Chinese culture. “And this year, the Lantern Festival is exactly next Tuesday,” she said. Seeing how interested the whole class was, Mr. White walked over with a smile. “This is a wonderful way to connect different cultures,” he said to Li Yue. “Would you like to host a Lantern Festival party for the whole grade next Tuesday night? I’m sure it will be fantastic.” Li Yue nodded firmly, her face bright with excitement. “I’d love to!” she replied. The class broke into applause, but as she sat down, a little worry set in — how could she make the party fun and unforgettable? 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Li Yue realized that the key solution was getting everyone involved. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The party took place as scheduled in the school cafeteria. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文 Li Yue realized that the key solution was getting everyone involved. Without hesitation, she turned to Emma for help, whose eyes lit up at once. They announced to the whole class that volunteers were needed. To their delight, all the students raised their hands eagerly, their faces shining with enthusiasm. Greatly relieved, Li Yue wasted no time dividing them into two groups: one led by her to craft lanterns with riddles attached, and the other led by Emma to prepare the ingredients and tools for making yuanxiao. With clear roles assigned, everyone immediately set to work. On Tuesday afternoon, everything was ready. The party took place as scheduled in the school cafeteria. Red lanterns decorated the space, creating a festive atmosphere. Guided by Li Yue, the whole grade made yuanxiao together. Soon, bowls of steaming yuanxiao were served, and everyone savored their handmade delicacies. The highlight was the riddle-guessing activity, which filled the cafeteria with bursts of laughter and cheers. To deepen everyone’s understanding, Li Yue introduced each tradition in detail and even taught the students to say some Chinese blessings. Bathed in the warm lantern light, the students shared not just food and fun, but a profound sense of connection, making it an unforgettable night for everyone. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物活动为线索展开。李悦作为在伦敦的交换生，在分享课上展示并介绍了中国元宵节及红灯笼，老师提议她下周二为全年级举办元宵节派对，李悦欣然应允，坐下后却开始担忧如何让派对有趣难忘。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段句首内容“李悦意识到关键在于让每个人都参与进来。”可知，第一段可以描写李悦想到解决办法后的果断，向Emma求助的过程，两人发起志愿号召的场景，以及同学们积极响应的状态，最后写李悦分工安排，大家投入准备的画面。 ②由第二段句首内容“派对如期在学校食堂举行。”可知，第二段可以描写派对现场的布置的氛围，同学们一起制作元宵、品尝元宵的细节，重点刻画猜灯谜活动的热闹场景，再写李悦介绍传统、教说祝福的环节，最后升华主题，描写同学们在温暖氛围中收获的情感联结。 2.续写线索：李悦想到解决办法——向Emma求助并发起志愿号召——同学们积极响应，李悦分工安排——大家投入准备工作——派对如期举行，开展系列活动——同学们收获温暖与联结，留下难忘回忆 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①向Emma求助：turn to Emma for help/ask Emma for assistance/seek Emma’s help ②宣布：announce/declare/make an announcement ③举手：raise one’s hands/put one’s hands up/lift one’s hands 情绪类 ①热情：enthusiasm/eagerness/passion ②难忘的：unforgettable/memorable/remarkable 【点睛】【高分句型1】They announced to the whole class that volunteers were needed.

In 2010, Hua’s father rented more than 13.3 hectares of land in a village. He used the land for conventional farming. However, a lack of innovation made it hard for him to run the farm. In the hope of saving her father’s farm, Hua in 2013 enrolled in Jiangsu Vocational College of Agriculture and Forestry and majored in horticultural (园艺) technology. After her graduation in 2016, Hua and four like-minded friends joined her father’s farm. Almost immediately, they had to deal with poor sales. After visiting various markets, they realized they had to innovate their farming techniques. They spent the next 11 months transforming the farm into an ecological circular agriculture base. The transformation was a turning point; since then, the farm has generated an output value of 32 million yuan annually. As part of her farm management, Hua has focused on technological innovation and application. In 2018, some farmers’ strawberry seedlings died, which resulted in massive losses. Hua decided to identify the cause. She spent three months testing hundreds of formulas, until she found the right culture medium formula for strawberry seedlings. She helped the farmers avoid future losses, and she improved both strawberry yield and quality. Hua has not hesitated to share the technologies she has developed with other farmers. She organized a team to provide assistance and technical guidance to farmers. The team is composed of 49 young graduates, all of whom majored in agriculture. She has also provided technological training to more than 22,000 people, supported more than 700 farmers in growing crops and helped farmers increase their incomes by a combined 120 million yuan. When asked about her plans for the future, Hua says, “I am willing to put down roots in the countryside, and to work in the fields. Rural areas have great potential, and agriculture will thrive. I will lead farmers and more young people to advance rural revitalization (振兴).” 24. What can be learned about Hua’s father’s farm? A. It mainly grew strawberries. B. It improved after technical reform. C. It earned big profits at first. D. It got government financial support. 25. What was the purpose of Hua’s experiments on formulas? A. To solve a crop crisis. B. To develop new varieties. C. To expand small farms. D. To advertise farmers’ products. 26. What does Hua’s words in the last paragraph imply? A. She wants to adjust her business goals. B. She plans to live and work in cities. C. She holds faith in rural agriculture. D. She intends to increase crop output. 27. How does the author present Hua Mengli’s story in the passage? A. By showing different farming styles. B. By comparing her with other local farmers. C. By introducing past farming history. D. By describing problems and her solutions. C Given the astonishing potential of AI to transform our lives, we all need to take action to deal with our AI-powered future, and this is where AI by Design: A Plan for Living with Artificial Intelligence comes in. This absorbing new book by Catriona Campbell is a practical roadmap addressing the challenges posed by the forthcoming AI revolution (变革). In the wrong hands, such a book could prove as complicated to process as the computer code (代码) that powers AI but, thankfully, Campbell has more than two decades’ professional experience translating the heady into the understandable. She writes from the practical angle of a business person rather than as an academic, making for a guide which is highly accessible and informative and which, by the close, will make you feel almost as smart as AI. As we soon come to learn from AI by Design, AI is already super-smart and will become more capable, moving from the current generation of “narrow-AI” to Artificial General Intelligence. From there, Campbell says, will come Artificial Dominant Intelligence. This is why Campbell has set out to raise awareness of AI and its future now — several decades before these developments are expected to take place. She says it is essential that we keep control of artificial intelligence, or risk being sidelined and perhaps even worse. Campbell’s point is to wake up those responsible for AI—the technology companies and world leaders—so they are on the same page as all the experts currently developing it. She explains we are at a “tipping point” in history and must act now to prevent an extinction-level event for humanity. We need to consider how we want our future with AI to pan out. Such structured thinking, followed by global regulation, will enable us to achieve greatness rather than our downfall. AI will affect us all, and if you only read one book on the subject, this is it. 28. What does the phrase “In the wrong hands” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. If read by someone poorly educated. B. If reviewed by someone ill-intentioned. C. If written by someone less competent. D. If translated by someone unacademic. 29. What is a feature of AI by Design according to the text? A. It is packed with complex codes. B. It adopts a down-to-earth writing style. C. It provides step-by-step instructions. D. It is intended for AI professionals. 30. What does Campbell urge people to do regarding AI development? A. Observe existing regulations on it. B. Reconsider expert opinions about it. C. Make joint efforts to keep it under control. D. Learn from prior experience to slow it down. 31. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To recommend a book on AI. B. To give a brief account of AI history. C. To clarify the definition of AI. D. To honor an outstanding AI expert. D Exams are nerve-racking, especially for those already of an anxious character. It seems barely surprising that those who worry about taking tests do systematically worse than those who do not. What is, perhaps, surprising, according to research published recently in Psychological Science by Maria Theobald, is that it is not the pressure of the exam hall but the pressure of revision that causes the problem. Dr Theobald theorized that if anxiety was truly interfering with a student’s ability to transfer known information from brain to paper via pen, then those with high levels of it would perform worse in a real exam than in either a mock (模考) beforehand or during online practice sessions. Besides, she expected this performance-drop to correlate with levels of self-reported exam nerves. She therefore worked with 309 German medical students who were preparing for their final state exam, the most important that they take. This test consists of 230 questions split into three five-hour sessions over three days. All her volunteers sat a mock examination, clearly presented to them as such, 40 days before the real thing. To assess their levels of anxiety, they were asked, every day for 40 days in the run-up to the real exam and also on the day of that exam, to respond on a five-point scale to statements like, “I feel tense and nervous.” On the day of the mock they were similarly asked to rate statements like, “I worry whether I have studied enough.” What Dr Theobald found was not what she expected. Anxiety on the day of test did not predict exam performance at all. What did predict it was the level of knowledge a student displayed in the mock exam and the earlier digital-learning activities. Those who performed well in these also did well in the real thing, regardless of how anxious they were on the day. What actually hampered students, it turned out, were high levels of anxiety during the weeks before the exam took place. And this discovery is far-reaching, for it suggests a change of approach to revision by the anxious might help improve their results. Dr Theobald notes that test-anxiety is at its worst when students have low expectations of success and simultaneously (同时地) know that passing the exam is exceedingly important. 32. What is paragraph 2 of the text mainly about? A. The theoretical basis. B. The research result. C. The testing assumption. D. The experimental process. 33. What can we infer from the research? A. Anxiety before the exam brings better exam performance. B. Anxiety before the exam restricts students’ ability in exams. C. Anxiety on the day of the test predicts the result of the exam. D. Anxiety on the day of the test intervenes in students’ ability in exams. 34. What is the author’s attitude toward Dr Theobald’s study? A. Favorable. B. Unclear. C. Doubtful. D. Dismissive. 35. What will the following paragraph probably talk about according to the passage? A. How to carry out revision plans scientifically. B. How to reduce test-anxiety when reviewing. C. How to get satisfying scores well in exams. D. How to ease study pressure before tests. 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。 Life is full of options, some unimportant, some significant. But sometimes it can be hard to make the proper choice. Many people ignore unseen barriers affecting their choices. ____36____ The first barrier: some of us just find it hard to make a choice. Alice Boyes, writing for Harvard Business Review, tells us this can be connected to seeking perfect results, where people attempt to find an ideal way to any problem and are unable to advance when they can’t find one. ____37____ However, as surprising as it may seem, this difficulty in deciding might actually help us make the correct ones. ____38____ Susan Krauss in Psychology Today reminds us that people often make bad decisions because they base them on fixed thoughts rather than the real situation. She highlights a paper by researcher Iris Schneider which finds that hesitant people are more likely to look at different viewpoints and use them to reach a nicer decision. The third barrier comes from our own intelligence. David Robson, speaking to the BBC’s Crowd Science, tells us that intelligence can sometimes prevent people from making the right decision. People sometimes use their intelligence to create reasonable explanations for unreasonable ideas. ____39____ Jeff Bezos supports this view. Tech CEO Jason Fried recalls the Amazon founder saying that the people who were right most of the time were those who frequently changed their minds. So, perhaps it is not hesitation but rather intelligence, combined with quick decision-making and fixed ideas, that actually prevents us from making good choices. ____40____ Being slow to decide, on the other hand, could help us select the best option. A. Another barrier comes from people’s fixed thinking patterns. B. So what exactly holds us back from making sound decisions? C. Intelligent people are less likely to make ill-advised decisions. D. He holds the view that modesty contributes to sound decisions. E. Making quick judgments is generally considered a smarter way. F. It appears that difficulty in choosing will stop us from wise decisions. G. All these studies make us rethink the value of hesitation in decision-making. 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。 Jason Joel’s life story is not just about running.

The Jueying Chitu team, using a remote-controlled robot called “Lightning”, ___59___ (finish) with a net time of 48 minutes and 19 seconds, consistently running faster than 7 m/s. However, according to the competition rules, the ___60___ (result) of remote-controlled teams were multiplied (乘) by a weighting factor of 1.2 (1.2 的加权系数), giving them an adjusted time of about 57 minutes.

This special robot marathon not only shows the rapid development of humanoid robot technology, but also reflects the fairness and strictness of ____65____ (science) competition rules. 五、写作(共两节,共40分) 第一节 应用文(满分15分) 66. 近年来，许多城市都流行兴建“口袋公园”，曾经的社区边角地摇身一变，成了家门口高颜值的小公园，给市民带来了惊喜。假定你是李华，你所在的城市也逐渐建了一些口袋公园，为此你校英文报社正在组织以“Pocket Parks in My Eyes”为主题的征文活动，请你撰写一篇短文投稿，内容包括： (1)简要介绍“口袋公园”； (2)阐述“口袋公园”的好处； (3)号召绿色生活方式。 注意：(1)写作词数应为80左右； (2)可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 Pocket Parks in My Eyes _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第二节（满分25分） 67. 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。 Li Yue, a Chinese high school exchange student in London, felt a little nervous when Mr. White said to the class, “This Thursday, I want each of you to bring something that matters to you and share it with the class.” Li Yue sat quietly, thinking hard about what to bring. Suddenly, she remembered that the Lantern Festival would be the following Tuesday. A bright idea struck her, making her eyes light up instantly. Thursday came quickly, and the classroom was filled with joy and laughter. Most students brought snacks and small toys to share. When it was Li Yue’s turn, she stood up, holding a beautifully decorated wooden box. She opened it gently and took out a flat, folded piece of red paper. With a few quick, skillful folds and pulls, the paper magically turned into a delicate lantern frame. She placed a candle inside and lit it carefully. The gentle flame came alive, bathing the red lantern in warm light that spread throughout the classroom. “It’s incredible! What is it?” Emma, Li Yue’s deskmate, asked eagerly. Li Yue smiled and held up the lantern, introducing the Lantern Festival, its traditions of hanging lanterns, guessing riddles and eating a kind of sweet glutinous rice (糯米) balls called yuanxiao, and how red lanterns symbolize hope and reunion in Chinese culture. “And this year, the Lantern Festival is exactly next Tuesday,” she said. Seeing how interested the whole class was, Mr. White walked over with a smile. “This is a wonderful way to connect different cultures,” he said to Li Yue. “Would you like to host a Lantern Festival party for the whole grade next Tuesday night? I’m sure it will be fantastic.” Li Yue nodded firmly, her face bright with excitement. “I’d love to!” she replied. The class broke into applause, but as she sat down, a little worry set in — how could she make the party fun and unforgettable? 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Li Yue realized that the key solution was getting everyone involved. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The party took place as scheduled in the school cafeteria. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
