(“芯片猎人”是一群志愿者，他们致力于研究无法追踪的微芯片和狂犬病/身份标签，以便通过microchiphelp.com网站免费将宠物归还给它们的家人。)”可知，Microchip Hunters的服务是帮助失散的宠物与其主人团聚。故选B项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据ID and rabies tags with outdated info下的“For more information and stories: microchiphelp.com (有关更多信息和故事，请访问：microchiphelp.com。)”可知，网站上可以找到Microchip Hunters的成功案例。故选A项。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，文章主要介绍了Microchip Hunters这个组织的服务、成功案例以及相关信息，目的是推广这个组织。故选C项。 B In 2015, Brian Peterson, a car designer for Kia Motors, moved to Santa Ana, California, with his wife, Vanessa. There, they often met a homeless man named Matt Faris, who would frequently shout on the street corner, sometimes disturbing their sleep. Initially, Peterson had no interaction with Faris, but everything changed after reading the book Love Does, which stressed the power of love in action. Inspired by the book, Peterson decided to introduce himself to Faris. In their first conversation, Peterson learned that Faris had moved to Southern California from Kentucky in pursuit of a music career but had fallen on hard times, living on the streets for over a decade. Despite Faris’s rough appearance, Peterson saw beauty in him and felt forced to paint his portrait, even though he hadn’t picked up a paintbrush in eight years. Faris agreed, marking the start of a transformative project. So Peterson went to establish Faces of Santa Ana, a nonprofit organization dedicated to painting portraits of unhoused individuals in the community. He captures each subject’s personality through colors and then sells the portraits, splitting the earnings with the subject. Half of the funds are placed in a “love account”, which helps them to address their personal needs. However, Peterson learned the importance of asking people directly how they wanted to use the money rather than assuming what they need most. For example, Faris used the funds from his portrait to record an album, while another subject, Kimberly Sondoval, used the money to help pay her daughter’s rent. Over the years, Peterson’s project expanded, leading him to found Faces of Mankind, where artists nationwide paint portraits of the homeless. To date, Peterson has personally painted 41 portraits. His work not only provides financial assistance but also fosters understanding and connection between the buyers and the subjects, with many buyers developing friendships with the individuals they initially overlooked. Peterson hopes his work will continue to change how people perceive the homeless. 4. What inspired Brian Peterson to approach Matt Faris? A. He saw Faris had artistic talent. B. He read a book about love in action. C. He wanted to complain about Faris’s shouting. D. He intended to found a nonprofit organization. 5. How does Brian Peterson deal with the money he earns from selling the portraits? A. He donates it to charities. B. He uses it to expand his project. C. He sponsors the homeless to buy art supplies. D. He keeps half and gives the other half to his subjects. 6. What is true about Peterson in Paragraph 3? A. He believes in giving without accepting. B. He prefers to decide how the money should be spent. C. He helps people based on their personal needs. D. He funds them to develop art-related projects. 7. What would be the best title for this passage? A. Painting for Homeless. B. Curing Homelessness with Art. C. Telling the Story of Matt Faris. D. Selling Portraits for Charity. 【答案】4. B 5. D 6. C 7. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了Brian Peterson通过为无家可归者画肖像并出售画像，将所得与对方平分，帮助其实现个人目标的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Initially, Peterson had no interaction with Faris, but everything changed after reading the book Love Does, which stressed the power of love in action. Inspired by the book, Peterson decided to introduce himself to Faris. (起初，Peterson与Faris并无交集，但在阅读了强调爱的行动力量的《Love Does》一书后，一切都改变了。受这本书的启发，Peterson决定向Faris介绍自己)”可知，一本关于行动之爱的书启发Peterson去接触Matt Faris。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“He captures each subject’s personality through colors and then sells the portraits, splitting the earnings with the subject. (他用色彩捕捉每位对象的个性，然后将肖像画售出，并与被画者平分所得)”可知，Peterson把卖画像赚的钱自己留一半，另一半给画像中的人。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“However, Peterson learned the importance of asking people directly how they wanted to use the money rather than assuming what they need most. For example, Faris used the funds from his portrait to record an album, while another subject, Kimberly Sondoval, used the money to help pay her daughter’s rent.(然而，Peterson明白了直接询问人们希望如何使用这笔钱、而不是假设他们最需要什么的重要性。例如，Faris用他肖像画获得的资金录制了一张专辑，而另一位被画者Kimberly Sondoval则用这笔钱帮助支付了女儿的房租)”可知，Peterson根据个人的需求来帮助他们。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第二段中“In their first conversation, Peterson learned that Faris had moved to Southern California from Kentucky in pursuit of a music career but had fallen on hard times, living on the streets for over a decade. Despite Faris’s rough appearance, Peterson saw beauty in him and felt forced to paint his portrait (在他们的第一次交谈中，Peterson得知Faris从肯塔基州搬到南加州是为了追求音乐事业，但后来境遇艰难，在街头生活了十多年。尽管Faris外表粗糙，Peterson却看到了他身上的美，并感到非画他的肖像不可)”、第三段中“So Peterson went to establish Faces of Santa Ana, a nonprofit organization dedicated to painting portraits of unhoused individuals in the community.(于是，Peterson成立了“圣安娜的面孔”——一个致力于为社区中无家可归者绘制肖像的非营利组织。)”和第四段中“His work not only provides financial assistance but also fosters understanding and connection (他的工作不仅提供了经济援助，还促进了理解和联系)”可知，文章主要讲述了Brian Peterson通过为无家可归者画像来帮助他们。故A项“Painting for Homeless (为无家可归者画像)”能概括文章内容，最适合做文章标题。 C For centuries, quino checkerspot butterflies have done well in the bushy landscapes of Southern California and Mexico. These medium-sized butterflies, distinguished by their vibrant red, black, and white checked wings, rely on the dwarf plantain (矮车前草) as their primary host plant. Unlike humans, who taste with their tongues, female quinos use their forelegs to taste and identify this plant for egg-laying. After hatching, the caterpillars feed on the dwarf plantain until the dry summer heat causes the plants to dry up and die. Faced with a lack of food, the caterpillars enter diapause until rain returns, allowing them to survive harsh dry conditions. When winter rains arrive, they restart feeding, form a chrysalis, and eventually transform into adult butterflies. However, climate change poses significant challenges. Rising temperatures lead to increasing drought, damaging the dwarf plantain that caterpillars depend on. Meanwhile, cities like Los Angeles and San Diego are also moving into the butterflies’ hills. Houses, highways, and shopping malls are taking over the meadows where the dwarf plantain and other wildflowers grow. But before the conservationists could make a plan, the quinos moved themselves! Some populations have migrated to the foothills east of Temecula, California, where rising temperatures have created favorable conditions.Here, they have adopted the purple Collinsia as a new host plant, with their caterpillars thriving on it. This rapid adaptation has fascinated scientists, suggesting that other species may similarly adjust to climate change in unexpected ways. Evidence from Europe supports this, with 35 butterfly species relocating to new areas in response to shifting climates and plant distributions. Still, many scientists worry that climate change is happening too quickly for many species to adjust. And what happens when one threatened species moves into the living area of another? What if they both want the same food? Who gets to stay? The quino butterflies are safe in their new home — for now. Computer models predict that if the world keeps warming, in 40 years the new hills may also be too dry for butterflies. 8. Which of the following is true about the quinos? A. They can be identified by their wings. B. The adult quinos feed on dwarf plantain. C. They pick egg-laying plants with tongues. D. They prefer thick forests to bushy landscapes. 9. What does the underlined word “diapause” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A. A feeding phase. B. A growing phase. C. A resting phase. D. A reproductive phase. 10. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4? A. Quinos exhibit quick adaptability to environment. B. The rising temperature is favourable to the new host plant. C. Scientists had anticipated the quino migration and made plans. D. All butterflies are able to relocate in response to climate change. 11. What do the questions in the last paragraph imply? A. Concern on proper food supply. B. The principle of survival of the fittest. C. Scientists’ uncertainty about the future of quino butterflies. D. Potential conflicts among species over food in the shared habitat. 【答案】8. A 9. C 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了奎诺豹纹蝶的生活习性、寄主植物依赖及生长周期，重点讲述了面对气候变化和栖息地丧失时，奎诺豹纹蝶通过自行迁移到新的丘陵地带并采用紫色柯林西亚作为新寄主植物来快速适应环境变化的现象，同时表达了对物种未来生存及物种间潜在竞争关系的担忧。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“These medium-sized butterflies, distinguished by their vibrant red, black, and white checked wings, rely on the dwarf plantain (矮车前草) as their primary host plant.(这些中等体型的蝴蝶，因其翅膀上鲜艳的红、黑、白相间的格子花纹而独具特色，它们主要以矮车前草为食宿植物)”可知，奎诺豹纹蝶可以通过翅膀来识别。B项错误，因为文中仅提及幼虫（caterpillars）以矮车前草为食，未提及成虫食用该植物；C项错误，因为根据第一段“Unlike humans, who taste with their tongues, female quinos use their forelegs to taste and identify this plant for egg-laying.(与人类用舌头品尝不同，雌性奎诺蝶用前腿来品尝和识别这种植物以产卵)”可知，它们并非用舌头挑选产卵植物；D项错误，因为根据第一段“For centuries, quino checkerspot butterflies have done well in the bushy landscapes of Southern California and Mexico.(数百年来，奎诺斑点蝶在南加州和墨西哥的灌丛地带中繁衍生息状况良好)”可知，它们适应的是灌木丛而非茂密森林。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句“Faced with a lack of food, the caterpillars enter diapause until rain returns, allowing them to survive harsh dry conditions.(面对食物短缺，幼虫进入diapause直到雨水回归，这使它们能够在严酷的干燥条件下生存下来)”可知，在干旱缺食时幼虫进入一种停滞状态以等待雨季来临。由此推知，划线词指的是一种休眠休息阶段，而非进食、生长或繁殖阶段。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“But before the conservationists could make a plan, the quinos moved themselves!(但在保护主义者能够制定计划之前，奎诺蝶已经自行迁移了！)”以及“This rapid adaptation has fascinated scientists, suggesting that other species may similarly adjust to climate change in unexpected ways.(这种迅速的适应能力令科学家们深感好奇，这表明其他物种或许也能以意想不到的方式适应气候变化)”可推知，奎诺豹纹蝶对环境变化表现出了快速的适应能力。B项错误，文中“rising temperatures have created favorable conditions”指温度升高为蝴蝶创造了有利条件，而非直接说明对新寄主植物有利；C项错误，因为科学家并未预料到此次迁移，原文明确说保护主义者还没来得及制定计划；D项错误，“All butterflies”表述过于绝对，与后文“climate change is happening too quickly for many species to adjust(气候变化太快，许多物种无法适应)”相悖。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“And what happens when one threatened species moves into the living area of another? What if they both want the same food? Who gets to stay?( 那么，当一种受到威胁的物种迁入另一种物种的活动区域时会发生什么呢？如果它们都想要同样的食物，那又该如何抉择呢？谁才能留下来？)”可推知，这些问题暗示了当不同物种迁入共享栖息地时，可能会因食物资源而产生潜在冲突。 D A recent robot sports competition showed humanoid robots running, falling, getting up, and continuing to the finish line. This event reflects the current state of AI and has raised public awareness. At the same time, rising AI stock (股票) prices show that investors are optimistic about its future. In China, using AI in work and daily life has become a national goal. Last month, the State Council released a plan for the “AI+” initiative. This plan aims to bring AI into all industries over 10 years, in three stages, to build new smart economic and social systems. A survey shows that 53.1% of people are excited about AI, 26% are pleasantly surprised, and 11% feel negative. This optimism comes from the belief that AI will change life just like mobile internet did. This is similar to the success of China’s “Internet+” plan over the past ten years, which helped improve industries and people’s lives. However, AI also brings worries. Some fear that AI “silicon (硅)-based workers” might take human jobs, and that relying too much on AI could weaken human thinking skills. Research from MIT found that people who use AI a lot have weaker brain connections. Other current problems include “black boxes” (when AI gives unpredictable results because it learns from data) and “model hallucinations” (when AI gives wrong answers based on untested data). Although some people are worried, this will not stop AI from moving forward. As an important area in global competition, AI’s development is certain. The “AI+” plan also focuses on safety and includes rules to prevent misuse. Like other major new technologies in the past, AI will need time to improve. Experts say today’s problems will help the industry become more careful and lead to important breakthroughs in the future. 12. What is the main goal of China’s “AI+” initiative mentioned in the text? A. To reduce the price of AI stocks. B. To combine AI with all industries. C. To stop people from using AI in daily life. D. To make AI robots win all sports competitions. 13. Why are many people optimistic about AI? A. Because they think AI will change life. B. Because AI will replace all human jobs. C. Because AI can solve all health problems. D. Because AI robots are faster than humans. 14. What does the underlined phrase “model hallucinations” mean? A. AI robots making errors during tasks. B. Weaker brain connections in AI users. C. AI mistakes caused by unproven data. D. Unpredictable results from AI learning from data. 15. What is the author’s attitude toward AI’s future? A. Totally indifferent, ignoring AI. B. Fully negative, fearing job losses. C. Deeply doubtful, questioning AI’s value. D. Cautiously hopeful, balancing risks and progress. 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了中国“AI+”计划的目标、公众对AI的态度、AI带来的问题及发展前景。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。 根据第二段中“Last month, the State Council released a plan for the “AI+” initiative. This plan aims to bring AI into all industries over 10 years, in three stages, to build new smart economic and social systems.(上个月，国务院发布了“AI+”倡议计划。该计划旨在在10年内分三个阶段将人工智能引入所有行业，构建新的智能经济和社会体系)”可知，中国“AI+”倡议的主要目标是将人工智能与所有行业相结合。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“This optimism comes from the belief that AI will change life just like mobile internet did.(这种乐观源于人们相信人工智能会像移动互联网一样改变生活)”可知，很多人对人工智能持乐观态度是因为他们认为人工智能会改变生活。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段中“Research from MIT found that people who use AI a lot have weaker brain connections. Other current problems include “black boxes” (when AI gives unpredictable results because it learns from data) and “model hallucinations” (when AI gives wrong answers based on untested data).(目前的其他问题包括“黑箱”（当人工智能从数据中学习时给出不可预测的结果）和“model hallucinations”（当人工智能基于未经测试的数据给出错误答案时）)”可知，“model hallucinations”指的是人工智能因未经证实的数据而犯的错误。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。 根据最后一段中“Although some people are worried, this will not stop AI from moving forward. As an important area in global competition, AI’s development is certain. The “AI+” plan also focuses on safety and includes rules to prevent misuse. Like other major new technologies in the past, AI will need time to improve. Experts say today’s problems will help the industry become more careful and lead to important breakthroughs in the future.(尽管有些人担心，但这不会阻止人工智能向前发展。作为全球竞争的重要领域，人工智能的发展是确定的。“AI+”计划还注重安全，并包括防止滥用的规则。像过去的其他重大新技术一样，人工智能需要时间来改进。专家表示，今天的问题将有助于该行业更加谨慎，并在未来取得重要突破)”可知，作者对人工智能的未来持谨慎乐观的态度，平衡了风险和进步。 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。 How to Stay Focused While Studying Staying focused while studying can be a challenge for many students.

Mom insisted that she had followed the pattern exactly. I sighed and looked back at the mirror. Somehow Mom had convinced me to do a play in this summer. So here I was about to play the Fish Footman in the local community theater production of Alice in Wonderland. It didn’t exactly fill me with confidence. “Well, there’s no turning back now,” Mom said, “Tomorrow is your opening night.” “What if…” I hesitated. “What if I forget my lines? And I don’t think this costume is right.” Mom gave me a knowing smile and pulled me in for a fierce hug, “You are the best actor on that stage, whether you’re wearing a fish tail or not. I know you’ve been rehearsing(排练) for two months; you were the first off-book in your scene, and I couldn’t be prouder of you.” Despite her words, I still felt a knot in my stomach as the hour of opening night drew near. The next day, Mom led me to the back of the auditorium, where children in various costumes were chatting merrily. I shrank inside myself, but Mom pulled me toward the makeup table. In a moment, it was done. My jaw dropped as I saw my green cheeks and brilliant blue lips. “Mom, I can’t go out on stage like this!” I cried, “I’d be a laughingstock(笑柄)!” She comforted me that I was not the only one in an odd costume and dismissed the idea of escape from my mind. With no other options, I sat alone as the play began. I looked in horror at the vague figures onstage. The audience’s laughter seemed to come from miles underwater— ironic(讽刺的), given I was supposed to be a fish. My only thought was soon it would be me in the spotlight. The stage manager said something to me. I nodded blankly in response and turned to face the music as the light dimmed and tune came on to accompany the scene change. 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。 I knew it was my time to enter. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Determined to leave a lasting impression, I poured my emotions into the performance. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文： I knew it was my time to enter. My heart pounded like a drum while my feet remained firmly planted on the floor. Knowing that Mom was expecting my appearance, I took a deep breath and stepped onto the stage, ready to face the unknown. I could hear the murmur of the audience, but at that time, I saw Mom among them. Inspired, I managed to perform as I had done in rehearsals. Determined to leave a lasting impression, I poured my emotions into the performance. Forgetting the fear, I allowed myself to become the Fish Footman. My movements became flexible and natural, which echoed the grace of an underwater dancer. Each line I spoke was filled with sincerity, and the audience’s initial laughter transformed into complete silence. By the time my part ended, the applause thundered like a welcome home. At that moment, I knew I had overcome my fear and I was ready to face the challenge in the future. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，以人物为线索展开。妈妈说服作者在《爱丽丝梦游仙境》中扮演鱼仆人，对忘台词的害怕和奇怪的服装让作者非常紧张。然而上台后作者平复了心情，完美完成了自己的表演。作者终于克服了自己的恐惧，准备迎接未来的挑战。 【详解】1. 续写线索： ①由续写第一段首句“我知道是时候进去了。”可知，第一段可以讲述作者从紧张到在舞台上稳定心绪的过程。 ②由续写第二段首句“为了给人留下深刻的印象，我把自己的情感倾注在表演中。”可知，第二段可以描写作者成功完成了表演，惊艳了观众。 2. 段落续写：心情紧张——走上舞台——看到妈妈——受到鼓舞——尽情表演——惊艳观众——克服恐惧 3. 词汇激活： 行为类 ①（心脏）怦怦跳：pound/beat ②期待：expect/look forward to ③克服：overcome/conquer 情绪类 ①受到鼓舞：inspired/encouraged ②恐惧：fear/scare 【点睛】【高分句型1】Knowing that Mom was expecting my appearance, I took a deep breath and stepped onto the stage, ready to face the unknown.(使用了现在分词Knowing 作状语、that引导宾语从句、形容词短语ready to作状语) 【高分句型2】My movements became flexible and natural, which echoed the grace of an underwater dancer.

There, they often met a homeless man named Matt Faris, who would frequently shout on the street corner, sometimes disturbing their sleep. Initially, Peterson had no interaction with Faris, but everything changed after reading the book Love Does, which stressed the power of love in action. Inspired by the book, Peterson decided to introduce himself to Faris. In their first conversation, Peterson learned that Faris had moved to Southern California from Kentucky in pursuit of a music career but had fallen on hard times, living on the streets for over a decade. Despite Faris’s rough appearance, Peterson saw beauty in him and felt forced to paint his portrait, even though he hadn’t picked up a paintbrush in eight years. Faris agreed, marking the start of a transformative project. So Peterson went to establish Faces of Santa Ana, a nonprofit organization dedicated to painting portraits of unhoused individuals in the community. He captures each subject’s personality through colors and then sells the portraits, splitting the earnings with the subject. Half of the funds are placed in a “love account”, which helps them to address their personal needs. However, Peterson learned the importance of asking people directly how they wanted to use the money rather than assuming what they need most. For example, Faris used the funds from his portrait to record an album, while another subject, Kimberly Sondoval, used the money to help pay her daughter’s rent. Over the years, Peterson’s project expanded, leading him to found Faces of Mankind, where artists nationwide paint portraits of the homeless. To date, Peterson has personally painted 41 portraits. His work not only provides financial assistance but also fosters understanding and connection between the buyers and the subjects, with many buyers developing friendships with the individuals they initially overlooked. Peterson hopes his work will continue to change how people perceive the homeless. 4. What inspired Brian Peterson to approach Matt Faris? A. He saw Faris had artistic talent. B. He read a book about love in action. C. He wanted to complain about Faris’s shouting. D. He intended to found a nonprofit organization. 5. How does Brian Peterson deal with the money he earns from selling the portraits? A. He donates it to charities. B. He uses it to expand his project. C. He sponsors the homeless to buy art supplies. D. He keeps half and gives the other half to his subjects. 6. What is true about Peterson in Paragraph 3? A. He believes in giving without accepting. B. He prefers to decide how the money should be spent. C. He helps people based on their personal needs. D. He funds them to develop art-related projects. 7. What would be the best title for this passage? A. Painting for Homeless. B. Curing Homelessness with Art. C. Telling the Story of Matt Faris. D. Selling Portraits for Charity. C For centuries, quino checkerspot butterflies have done well in the bushy landscapes of Southern California and Mexico. These medium-sized butterflies, distinguished by their vibrant red, black, and white checked wings, rely on the dwarf plantain (矮车前草) as their primary host plant. Unlike humans, who taste with their tongues, female quinos use their forelegs to taste and identify this plant for egg-laying. After hatching, the caterpillars feed on the dwarf plantain until the dry summer heat causes the plants to dry up and die. Faced with a lack of food, the caterpillars enter diapause until rain returns, allowing them to survive harsh dry conditions. When winter rains arrive, they restart feeding, form a chrysalis, and eventually transform into adult butterflies. However, climate change poses significant challenges. Rising temperatures lead to increasing drought, damaging the dwarf plantain that caterpillars depend on. Meanwhile, cities like Los Angeles and San Diego are also moving into the butterflies’ hills. Houses, highways, and shopping malls are taking over the meadows where the dwarf plantain and other wildflowers grow. But before the conservationists could make a plan, the quinos moved themselves! Some populations have migrated to the foothills east of Temecula, California, where rising temperatures have created favorable conditions.Here, they have adopted the purple Collinsia as a new host plant, with their caterpillars thriving on it. This rapid adaptation has fascinated scientists, suggesting that other species may similarly adjust to climate change in unexpected ways. Evidence from Europe supports this, with 35 butterfly species relocating to new areas in response to shifting climates and plant distributions. Still, many scientists worry that climate change is happening too quickly for many species to adjust. And what happens when one threatened species moves into the living area of another? What if they both want the same food? Who gets to stay? The quino butterflies are safe in their new home — for now. Computer models predict that if the world keeps warming, in 40 years the new hills may also be too dry for butterflies. 8. Which of the following is true about the quinos? A. They can be identified by their wings. B. The adult quinos feed on dwarf plantain. C. They pick egg-laying plants with tongues. D. They prefer thick forests to bushy landscapes. 9. What does the underlined word “diapause” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A. A feeding phase. B. A growing phase. C. A resting phase. D. A reproductive phase. 10. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4? A. Quinos exhibit quick adaptability to environment. B. The rising temperature is favourable to the new host plant. C. Scientists had anticipated the quino migration and made plans. D. All butterflies are able to relocate in response to climate change. 11. What do the questions in the last paragraph imply? A. Concern on proper food supply. B. The principle of survival of the fittest. C. Scientists’ uncertainty about the future of quino butterflies. D. Potential conflicts among species over food in the shared habitat. D A recent robot sports competition showed humanoid robots running, falling, getting up, and continuing to the finish line. This event reflects the current state of AI and has raised public awareness. At the same time, rising AI stock (股票) prices show that investors are optimistic about its future. In China, using AI in work and daily life has become a national goal. Last month, the State Council released a plan for the “AI+” initiative. This plan aims to bring AI into all industries over 10 years, in three stages, to build new smart economic and social systems. A survey shows that 53.1% of people are excited about AI, 26% are pleasantly surprised, and 11% feel negative. This optimism comes from the belief that AI will change life just like mobile internet did. This is similar to the success of China’s “Internet+” plan over the past ten years, which helped improve industries and people’s lives. However, AI also brings worries. Some fear that AI “silicon (硅)-based workers” might take human jobs, and that relying too much on AI could weaken human thinking skills. Research from MIT found that people who use AI a lot have weaker brain connections. Other current problems include “black boxes” (when AI gives unpredictable results because it learns from data) and “model hallucinations” (when AI gives wrong answers based on untested data). Although some people are worried, this will not stop AI from moving forward. As an important area in global competition, AI’s development is certain. The “AI+” plan also focuses on safety and includes rules to prevent misuse. Like other major new technologies in the past, AI will need time to improve. Experts say today’s problems will help the industry become more careful and lead to important breakthroughs in the future. 12. What is the main goal of China’s “AI+” initiative mentioned in the text? A. To reduce the price of AI stocks. B. To combine AI with all industries. C. To stop people from using AI in daily life. D. To make AI robots win all sports competitions. 13. Why are many people optimistic about AI? A. Because they think AI will change life. B. Because AI will replace all human jobs. C. Because AI can solve all health problems. D. Because AI robots are faster than humans. 14. What does the underlined phrase “model hallucinations” mean? A. AI robots making errors during tasks. B. Weaker brain connections in AI users. C. AI mistakes caused by unproven data. D. Unpredictable results from AI learning from data. 15. What is the author’s attitude toward AI’s future? A. Totally indifferent, ignoring AI. B. Fully negative, fearing job losses. C. Deeply doubtful, questioning AI’s value. D. Cautiously hopeful, balancing risks and progress. 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。 How to Stay Focused While Studying Staying focused while studying can be a challenge for many students.

Mom insisted that she had followed the pattern exactly. I sighed and looked back at the mirror. Somehow Mom had convinced me to do a play in this summer. So here I was about to play the Fish Footman in the local community theater production of Alice in Wonderland. It didn’t exactly fill me with confidence. “Well, there’s no turning back now,” Mom said, “Tomorrow is your opening night.” “What if…” I hesitated. “What if I forget my lines? And I don’t think this costume is right.” Mom gave me a knowing smile and pulled me in for a fierce hug, “You are the best actor on that stage, whether you’re wearing a fish tail or not. I know you’ve been rehearsing(排练) for two months; you were the first off-book in your scene, and I couldn’t be prouder of you.” Despite her words, I still felt a knot in my stomach as the hour of opening night drew near. The next day, Mom led me to the back of the auditorium, where children in various costumes were chatting merrily. I shrank inside myself, but Mom pulled me toward the makeup table. In a moment, it was done. My jaw dropped as I saw my green cheeks and brilliant blue lips. “Mom, I can’t go out on stage like this!” I cried, “I’d be a laughingstock(笑柄)!” She comforted me that I was not the only one in an odd costume and dismissed the idea of escape from my mind. With no other options, I sat alone as the play began. I looked in horror at the vague figures onstage. The audience’s laughter seemed to come from miles underwater— ironic(讽刺的), given I was supposed to be a fish. My only thought was soon it would be me in the spotlight. The stage manager said something to me. I nodded blankly in response and turned to face the music as the light dimmed and tune came on to accompany the scene change. 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。 I knew it was my time to enter. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Determined to leave a lasting impression, I poured my emotions into the performance. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
