阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
After learning about these famous women, you’ll know you can do a lot for society no matter what. You don’t need to be in a specific field, time or environment to make a difference to the world in your lifetime.
Amelia Earhart (1897-1937)
Amelia Earhart was the first woman who ever flew alone across the Atlantic in 1932. She became the first woman pilot in 1935 after flying from Hawaii to California. She began her lifelong dream of flying across the world in 1937. However, her flight went missing on that trip and she was never seen again.
Helena Rubinstein (1870-1965)
Helena Rubinstein moved to Australia in 1902 without the ability to speak English. Later, she founded one of the world’s first cosmetic (化妆品) companies after mixing lanolin, which is an oil that comes from sheep’s wool, with flowers. Because of that, she became the world’s richest woman at the time.
Katharine Hepburn (1907-2003)
Katharine Hepburn was known for playing strongwilled women in her films. She won four Academy Awards for Best Actress, the most an actress has ever won. Her new dress style made wearing trousers acceptable to women, which wasn’t allowed at that time.
Emmeline Pankhurst (1858-1928)
Emmeline was an influential woman activist, who helped British women get the right to vote. She fought along with her husband for the rights of women all the time in the late 19th century and early 20th century. After she lost her husband, she teamed up with her three daughters and formed The Women Social and Political Union, which was best known as the suffragettes (women’s right to vote).
1. What was the problem for Helena at first when she moved to Australia?
A. She didn’t know how to make up. B. She didn’t have money.
C. She didn’t have work experience. D. She couldn’t speak English.

An old man lives with his little grandson. Every day the old man gets up early to read books.
One day the grandson asked, “Grandpa, I want to read books as you do. But I always forget what I read. What are the advantages of reading?”
The grandfather didn’t answer him, but said, “Take this little basket to the river and bring me back a basket of water.” The boy did as his grandpa said, but all the water leaked out before he got back home. The grandfather laughed and said, “You’ll have to walk faster next time.”
The next time the boy ran faster, but the basket was still empty before he returned home. The boy said, “See, Grandpa, it’s no use!”
“Is it no use?” the old man said. “Look at the basket.”
The boy looked at the basket and found that the basket was different. It was cleaner, inside and out.
“That’s what happens when you read books. You might not understand or remember everything, but when you read them, you will be changed, inside and out.”

The grandfather laughed and said, “You’ll have to walk faster next time.”(爷爷没有回答他,只是说:“把这个小篮子带到河边,给我带一篮子水回来。”男孩照爷爷说的做了,但在他回到家之前,所有的水都漏了。爷爷笑着说:“下次你得走快点。”)”可知,从这个故事中我们可以了解到爷爷没有直接回答孙子读书的好处,而是通过让孙子用篮子打水这一方式,让孙子明白读书虽可能不记住内容,但会让人改变,这是一种很有创意的教育方式。故选B项。
C
Do you want to stay away from colds? Put on a happy face.
Compared to unhappy people, those who are happy are less likely to suffer from colds, according to a new study. “It’s possible that being happy helps the body fight illnesses,” said the researchers from New York University.
“It seems that positive feelings may reduce the danger of illness,” said the study’s leader and researcher Sheldon Cohen.
In an earlier study, Cohen found that people who were happy and lively caught coughs and colds less often. People who showed feelings were also less likely to tell their doctors that they felt ill.
In this new study, Cohen’s team interviewed 193 people every day for two weeks. During the interviews, the people told researchers about the happy or sad feelings they had that day.
After two weeks, doctors let these people come into contact with cold viruses, and they had to stay alone in a room for seven days.
The result showed that everyone in the study was equally (同等地) likely to get ill. But for people who said they felt happy during the research time, their illness was less serious and lasted for a shorter time.
Cohen believes that when people experience positive feelings, their body may make a kind of thing in the body that helps fight illness. So if you are worried about your health, look on the bright side more often.
8. According to the study, who is less likely to suffer from colds?
A. People who are happy. B. People who are unhappy.
C. People who exercise more. D. People who often try new things.
9. How long did the new study last in total?
A. For a month. B. For three weeks.
C. For two weeks. D. For seven days.
10. What was the result of the new study?
A. Happy people didn’t get sick. B. Unhappy people got sick less.
C. Everyone felt happy during the research. D. Happy people got less sick and got well faster.
11. What does the writer want to tell us through the text?
A. There is a new study about health. B. A new kind of medicine can treat colds.
C. Positive feelings may help us stay healthier. D. We should pay attention to our daily feelings.
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【导语】文章主要介绍了一项新的研究,表明积极快乐的情绪能够减轻感冒病情,有助于人们保持身体健康。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Compared to unhappy people those who are happy are less likely to suffer from colds, according to a new study. (根据一项新的研究,与不快乐的人相比,快乐的人患感冒的可能性更小。)”可知,快乐的人不太容易患感冒。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“In this new study, Cohen’s team interviewed 193 people every day for two weeks. (在这项新研究中,Cohen的团队连续两周每天采访193个人。)”以及第六段“After two weeks, doctors let these people come into contact with cold viruses, and they had to stay alone in a room for seven days. (两周之后,医生让这些人接触感冒病毒,他们必须在一个房间里独自待七天。)”可知,前期采访持续两周,之后隔离观察七天,整个新研究总共持续三周。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第七段“The result showed that everyone in the study was equally (同等地) likely to get ill. But for people who said they felt happy during the research time, their illness was less serious and lasted for a shorter time. (结果表明研究中的每个人患病的几率是均等的。但对于那些在研究期间表示自己感到快乐的人来说,他们的病情没那么严重,持续时间也更短。)”可知,快乐的人病情更轻,恢复得更快。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“‘It seems that positive feelings may reduce the danger of illness,’ said the study’s leader and researcher Sheldon Cohen. (该研究的负责人兼研究员Sheldon Cohen说:‘积极的情绪似乎可以降低患病的风险。’)”以及最后一段“Cohen believes that when people experience positive feelings, their body may make a kind of thing in the body that helps fight illness. So if you are worried about your health, look on the bright side more often. (Cohen认为,当人们拥有积极情绪时,身体可能会产生一种帮助对抗疾病的物质。所以如果你担心自己的健康,要多往好的方面想。)”可知,作者想告诉我们积极的情绪有助于我们保持更健康的状态。

Artificial intelligence (AI) researchers have long dreamed of tools to supercharge science-asking novel questions, designing and running experiments. Recently, large language models (LLMs) have made discoveries that some AI developers claim have inched us closer to that future. But how do you test whether an AI model can truly do science?
For answers, researchers turn to benchmarks (基准): standardized sets of questions or tasks that help measure an AI’s efficiency and reliability and compare it against other models. But the complexity of science makes assessing their aptitude especially challenging. As Hao Peng, a computer scientist at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, puts it: “Models have all this knowledge. Do they know how to use it?”
Dozens of new science-focused benchmarks have emerged over the past year to answer that question, but scientists have yet to settle on a single best approach. One of the most popular, published in Nature, is Humanity’s Last Exam (HLE). It uses 2500 questions drawn from “the frontier of human knowledge” to put LLMs through their paces. One, for example, asks how many types of sensory receptors the human skin contains. “We wanted a diverse dataset that only experts who have been working on a field for a long time can answer,” says Long Phan, a research engineer with the HLE’s developer.
Since the HLE first appeared as a preprint in January 2025, the benchmark has become an important proving ground for LLMs and HLE scores are now a common talking point for AI companies seeking to highlight the capabilities of their products. At the HLE’s launch, the leading developer OpenAI’s AI model won the best score at a mere 8.3%. Earlier this month, Google claimed that its latest reasoning model for science, called Gemini 3 Deep Think, had achieved a new record HLE score of 48.4%.
But some scientists argue that many of the HLE’s questions test for little-known or even useless knowledge, rather than an ability to do meaningful research. A Nature editorial accompanying the HLE’s publication also raised this issue: “We think that more scientists should be asking: What would it take to develop an AI benchmark that truly measures expert-level thinking?”
12. What does the underlined word “aptitude” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Knowledge. B. Performance. C. Intelligence. D. Progress.
13. What does Long Phan stress about HLE?
A. Its topic diversity. B. Experts’ involvement in it.
C. The expertise of its dataset. D. Its data-backed popularity.
14. What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. HLE’s role as a key AI test. B. Companies’ use of HLE.
C. HLE scores of leading AI models. D. The process of HLE’s launch.
15. By sharing its view, the Nature editorial aimed to ________.
A. back the current testing B. express concern over HLE
C. propose a workable solution D. predict future AI benchmarks
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章围绕如何检验一个人工智能模型是否真的能够进行科学研究展开,其中人类终极考试(HLE)作为核心AI测试平台备受关注,文章介绍了它的设计定位和作用;最后文章指出,一些科学家和《自然》社论对HLE提出质疑,引发了学界对“如何开发真正能测量专家级科研思维的AI基准”的思考。
【12题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词前文“For answers, researchers turn to benchmarks (基准): standardized sets of questions or tasks that help measure an AI’s efficiency and reliability and compare it against other models.(为寻找答案,研究人员转向了基准测试:一系列标准化的问题或任务,用于衡量人工智能的效率和可靠性,并将其与其他模型进行比较)”和后文“As Hao Peng, a computer scientist at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, puts it: “Models have all this knowledge. Do they know how to use it?”(正如伊利诺伊大学厄巴纳-香槟分校的计算机科学家Hao Peng所说:“模型拥有所有这些知识。但它们是否知道如何运用这些知识呢?”)”可知,前文提出核心问题:如何测试AI是否真的能开展科学研究,后文补充“模型已经拥有大量知识,问题是它们会不会运用知识”,所以此处指科学的复杂性让评估AI的性能格外困难,aptitude意为“性能”,与performance意思相近,故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中““We wanted a diverse dataset that only experts who have been working on a field for a long time can answer,” says Long Phan, a research engineer with the HLE’s developer.(“我们希望获得一个内容多样、只有长期深耕某一领域的专家才能解答的数据集,”HLE的开发者之一Long Phan说道)”可知,他强调HLE的数据集只有深耕领域的资深专家才能作答,核心是突出数据集的专业性,故选C。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“Since the HLE first appeared as a preprint in January 2025, the benchmark has become an important proving ground for LLMs and HLE scores are now a common talking point for AI companies seeking to highlight the capabilities of their products. At the HLE’s launch, the leading developer OpenAI’s AI model won the best score at a mere 8. 3%. Earlier this month, Google claimed that its latest reasoning model for science, called Gemini 3 Deep Think, had achieved a new record HLE score of 48. 4%.(自2025年1月HLE以预印本形式首次亮相以来,该基准测试已成为大型语言模型的重要验证平台,而HLE的得分如今已成为AI公司展示其产品能力时的常见话题。在HLE的发布仪式上,领先的开发者OpenAI的模型以仅 8.3%的得分赢得了最佳成绩。本月早些时候,谷歌宣称其最新的科学推理模型——名为“Geminis 3 深度思考”的模型,已取得了新的HLE成绩记录——48.4%)”可知,本段主要介绍HLE问世后已经成为大语言模型的重要试验场,HLE分数是AI公司展示产品能力的通用依据,后文的OpenAI、Google分数例子都是细节支撑。因此本段主要介绍HLE作为核心AI测试平台的作用,故选A。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“But some scientists argue that many of the HLE’s questions test for little-known or even useless knowledge, rather than an ability to do meaningful research. A Nature editorial accompanying the HLE’s publication also raised this issue: “We think that more scientists should be asking: What would it take to develop an AI benchmark that truly measures expert-level thinking?”(但一些科学家认为,HLE的许多问题所测试的更多是鲜为人知甚至毫无用处的知识,而非进行有意义研究的能力。与HLE发布相关的《自然》杂志的一篇社论也提出了这一问题:“我们认为,更多的科学家应该思考:要开发一个真正能衡量专家思维水平的AI基准,需要具备哪些条件?”)”可知,科学家批评HLE多考察偏门无用知识,而非真正的研究能力,《自然》社论也认同这个问题,呼吁学界思考“如何开发真正能测量专家级思维的AI基准”,因此社论的目的是对HLE现存的问题表达担忧,故选B。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了来自成都的厨师陈宇在米兰开设餐厅,将中式红烧菜与意大利葡萄酒搭配,重塑当地餐饮习惯,通过地道中餐搭建起东西方文化交流桥梁的故事。
【36题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:来自成都的陈宇,已经成为重塑当地餐饮习惯的厨师之一。“one of + the + 可数名词复数”是固定结构,意为“……之一”,所以此处应用chef的复数形式。故填chefs。
【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:他的餐厅位于米兰一个热闹街区的中心,面积不大但氛围浓厚,墙上挂满了中国各地美食的故事和照片。分析句子结构可知,句中已有谓语动词“is”,所以此处应用locate的非谓语动词形式,因其与逻辑主语“his restaurant”之间为被动关系,所以应用其过去分词形式作状语,且位于句首首字母需大写。故填Located。
【38题详解】
考查连词。句意:同上。根据语意可知,空格前“small in size (面积小)”与空格后“rich in atmosphere (氛围浓)”并列作表语,为转折关系,可用连词but或yet来连接。故填but/yet。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:食客们常常会惊讶于这些浓郁、层次丰富的味道与意大利葡萄酒搭配得如此和谐,营造出一种独特的东西方交融之美。分析句子结构可知,句中已有谓语动词“are ofen surprised by”,所以此处应用create的非谓语动词形式;上文的“these rich, layered flavors pair well with Italian wines”与“create”之间为逻辑上的主动关系,所以应用其现在分词形式作结果状语,表自然而然的结果。故填creating。
【40题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意:一位常客说:“到目前为止,许多正宗的中国菜肴已经进入意大利和欧洲,为人们带来了更丰富的风味体验和文化感受,深受大家喜爱。”根据时间状语“So far (到目前为止)”和语境可知,此处表示到目前为止已经完成或发生的动作,应用现在完成时;主语“numerous authentic Chinese dishes”为复数,助动词用have。故填have made。
【41题详解】
考查副词。句意:同上。修饰动词“appreciate”,应用genuine的副词形式genuinely作状语,意为“真诚地;真正地”。故填genuinely。
【42题详解】
考查非谓语动词和语态。句意:陈宇解释说,像红烧肉这类菜肴,需要用小火慢炖,才能释放出其浓郁醇厚的风味,菜肴最后往往会带一丝甜味,来中和辣味。“allow sb./sth. to do sth.”为固定搭配,意为“允许……做某事,使……能够……”;此处为被动语态be allowed to do,填不定式作主语补足语;根据语意可知,主语“Some dishes”与“cook”之间为逻辑上的被动关系,即被烹饪,所以应用动词cook的不定式的被动形式。故填to be cooked。
【43题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:一些美食博主不远万里穿越意大利,专程来品鉴他的菜单,他们表示中餐让他们领略到了全新的饮食方式。分析句子结构可知,此处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是“Food bloggers”,指人;关系词位于介词“of”之后作宾语,应用关系代词whom来引导。故填whom。
【44题详解】
考查介词。句意:陈宇决心坚守传统风味的纯正性,他认为对自身文化的自信,自然会激发外国人的兴趣。“stay true to”为固定短语,意为“忠于;坚守”,符合语境。故填to。
【45题详解】
考查名词。句意:另一位顾客说:“是时候向世界展示更多鲜活的中国传统了,让世界看到中国文化真正的深厚底蕴。”根据空格前的定冠词“the”和形容词“true”及空格后的“of Chinese culture”可知,此处应用rich的名词形式richness,意为“丰富;深厚底蕴”,为不可数名词。故填richness。

Thanks for your listening!
【答案】One possible version:
Hello everyone,
I firmly believe that learning English is still necessary, even with AI tools around.
First, huge amounts of information — news, tech, business information — are in English, which won’t change in the near future. Second, AI tools miss jokes, cultural meanings or subtle feelings. Have you tried translating a poem with an AI tool? It fails. Third, real communication is about emotions. No machine can truly replace laughing with a friend or comforting someone in their own language.
So let’s use AI as a tool, not a replacement. Keep learning English. It’s worth it.
Thanks for your listening!

第二节(满分25分)
47. 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。
Cold December wind blew through Chicago as Lila stood outside an old church, carrying snowflakes that stuck to Lila’ s woolen scarf like frozen (结冰的) tears. Three weeks ago, she and her college friends decided to turn this empty building into a soup kitchen before Christmas. Many homeless people lived near their school, and the students wanted to help. They borrowed two large cooking machines and collected canned food, but everything felt uncertain.
On the first day, Lila wiped her sweaty hands on her apron. Only four helpers came instead of twelve — others were busy with exams. Marco, her friend who liked cooking, looked worried. “We need to make 100 meals with just six chickens,” he complained, holding a knife. Through the boarded-up windows, they heard the shuffle of boots outside — people already lining up hours early, their breath fogging the icy air.
At 5:45 pm, one cooking machine stopped working. Lila felt her heart beat fast. She counted their food: 18 cans left for 73 hungry people. Mrs. Donovan, a silver-haired woman who often helped, touched Lila’s arm. “Honey, my hands hurt,” she said. “I can’t peel more potatoes.”
Then a thin man in a green shirt threw his plate on the table. “This isn’t food — it’s dishwater with noodles!” he shouted loudly and angrily. Lila’s vision blurred (模糊) as she scooped more food into his bowl, her “I’m so sorry” drowned by the kitchen’s chaos. That night, she found Marco weeping over a burnt pot, his apron splattered with failed attempts at cream sauce.
The next day, the team had a meeting. Lila, who was good at math, showed them numbers on paper. “We need 25 pounds of meat and 40 pounds of vegetables every day,” she said. “But we only have one-third of that.” The atmosphere seemed frozen, with everyone hanging their heads.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
After a while, Lila raised her head and said with a smile, “We all could turn to others for help.”
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
On Christmas Eve, the soup kitchen reopened.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
After a while, Lila raised her head and said with a smile, “We all could turn to others for help.” Her voice was calm and hopeful. “We can reach out to local businesses, community centers, and even use social media to ask for donations and volunteers,” she suggested. Her friends nodded in agreement, inspired by her determination. Marco volunteered to contact his family and friends, while Mrs. Donovan promised to rally support from her church community. They also posted on social media, sharing their story and needs. To their surprise, donations of food and supplies began pouring in, and more volunteers signed up. The atmosphere in the kitchen gradually shifted from despair to hope as they worked together to prepare for the next day.
On Christmas Eve, the soup kitchen reopened. The old church was filled with warmth and light, and the smell of freshly cooked meals filled the air. Tables were set up, and the volunteers moved with purpose, serving hot meals to the long line of people waiting outside. Lila watched as smiles replaced the worried looks on people’s faces. She saw Marco laughing as he dished out portions of chicken stew, and Mrs. Donovan chatting with the guests. Even the man in the green shirt, who had been so angry a couple of day before, was now eating quietly with a look of gratitude, saying cheerfully, “This… this is good.” Lila felt a sense of pride and accomplishment as she realized that their efforts had made a difference.
【解析】
【导语】本文以时间为线索展开,讲述了在芝加哥的寒冬,大学生Lila和朋友们将废弃教堂改造成施粥所。首日遭遇设备故障、食物短缺和受助者抱怨,团队几近崩溃。次日Lila提议寻求外界帮助,通过社交媒体和社区募捐获得大量物资与志愿者。平安夜施粥所成功开放,受助者们享用热餐,曾经的抱怨者露出感激笑容。
【详解】1. 段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“过了一会儿,Lila抬起头,笑着说:‘我们都可以向别人求助。’”可知,第一段可描写Lila提出向外界求助的方案,团队成员各自行动去求助,结果得到广泛的响应。
②由第二段首句内容“平安夜,施粥所重新开放”可知,第二段可描写受助者们享用美味的饭菜,团队成员忙碌而欣慰,曾经抱怨的人也很感激,Lila看到一切内心充满自豪与成就感。

Amelia Earhart was the first woman who ever flew alone across the Atlantic in 1932. She became the first woman pilot in 1935 after flying from Hawaii to California.

Helena Rubinstein (1870-1965)

The grandfather didn’t answer him, but said, “Take this little basket to the river and bring me back a basket of water.” The boy did as his grandpa said, but all the water leaked out before he got back home. The grandfather laughed and said, “You’ll have to walk faster next time.”
The next time the boy ran faster, but the basket was still empty before he returned home. The boy said, “See, Grandpa, it’s no use!”
“Is it no use?” the old man said. “Look at the basket.”

Do you want to stay away from colds? Put on a happy face.
Compared to unhappy people, those who are happy are less likely to suffer from colds, according to a new study. “It’s possible that being happy helps the body fight illnesses,” said the researchers from New York University.
“It seems that positive feelings may reduce the danger of illness,” said the study’s leader and researcher Sheldon Cohen.
In an earlier study, Cohen found that people who were happy and lively caught coughs and colds less often. People who showed feelings were also less likely to tell their doctors that they felt ill.
In this new study, Cohen’s team interviewed 193 people every day for two weeks. During the interviews, the people told researchers about the happy or sad feelings they had that day.
After two weeks, doctors let these people come into contact with cold viruses, and they had to stay alone in a room for seven days.
The result showed that everyone in the study was equally (同等地) likely to get ill. But for people who said they felt happy during the research time, their illness was less serious and lasted for a shorter time.
Cohen believes that when people experience positive feelings, their body may make a kind of thing in the body that helps fight illness. So if you are worried about your health, look on the bright side more often.
8. According to the study, who is less likely to suffer from colds?
A. People who are happy. B. People who are unhappy.
C. People who exercise more. D. People who often try new things.
9. How long did the new study last in total?

Artificial intelligence (AI) researchers have long dreamed of tools to supercharge science-asking novel questions, designing and running experiments. Recently, large language models (LLMs) have made discoveries that some AI developers claim have inched us closer to that future. But how do you test whether an AI model can truly do science?
For answers, researchers turn to benchmarks (基准): standardized sets of questions or tasks that help measure an AI’s efficiency and reliability and compare it against other models. But the complexity of science makes assessing their aptitude especially challenging. As Hao Peng, a computer scientist at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, puts it: “Models have all this knowledge. Do they know how to use it?”
Dozens of new science-focused benchmarks have emerged over the past year to answer that question, but scientists have yet to settle on a single best approach. One of the most popular, published in Nature, is Humanity’s Last Exam (HLE). It uses 2500 questions drawn from “the frontier of human knowledge” to put LLMs through their paces. One, for example, asks how many types of sensory receptors the human skin contains. “We wanted a diverse dataset that only experts who have been working on a field for a long time can answer,” says Long Phan, a research engineer with the HLE’s developer.
Since the HLE first appeared as a preprint in January 2025, the benchmark has become an important proving ground for LLMs and HLE scores are now a common talking point for AI companies seeking to highlight the capabilities of their products. At the HLE’s launch, the leading developer OpenAI’s AI model won the best score at a mere 8.3%. Earlier this month, Google claimed that its latest reasoning model for science, called Gemini 3 Deep Think, had achieved a new record HLE score of 48.4%.
But some scientists argue that many of the HLE’s questions test for little-known or even useless knowledge, rather than an ability to do meaningful research. A Nature editorial accompanying the HLE’s publication also raised this issue: “We think that more scientists should be asking: What would it take to develop an AI benchmark that truly measures expert-level thinking?”
12. What does the underlined word “aptitude” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Knowledge. B. Performance. C. Intelligence. D. Progress.
13. What does Long Phan stress about HLE?
A. Its topic diversity. B. Experts’ involvement in it.
C. The expertise of its dataset. D. Its data-backed popularity.
14. What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. HLE’s role as a key AI test. B. Companies’ use of HLE.
C. HLE scores of leading AI models. D. The process of HLE’s launch.
15. By sharing its view, the Nature editorial aimed to ________.
A. back the current testing B. express concern over HLE
C. propose a workable solution D. predict future AI benchmarks

Cold December wind blew through Chicago as Lila stood outside an old church, carrying snowflakes that stuck to Lila’ s woolen scarf like frozen (结冰的) tears. Three weeks ago, she and her college friends decided to turn this empty building into a soup kitchen before Christmas. Many homeless people lived near their school, and the students wanted to help. They borrowed two large cooking machines and collected canned food, but everything felt uncertain.
On the first day, Lila wiped her sweaty hands on her apron. Only four helpers came instead of twelve — others were busy with exams. Marco, her friend who liked cooking, looked worried. “We need to make 100 meals with just six chickens,” he complained, holding a knife. Through the boarded-up windows, they heard the shuffle of boots outside — people already lining up hours early, their breath fogging the icy air.
At 5:45 pm, one cooking machine stopped working. Lila felt her heart beat fast. She counted their food: 18 cans left for 73 hungry people. Mrs. Donovan, a silver-haired woman who often helped, touched Lila’s arm. “Honey, my hands hurt,” she said. “I can’t peel more potatoes.”
Then a thin man in a green shirt threw his plate on the table. “This isn’t food — it’s dishwater with noodles!” he shouted loudly and angrily. Lila’s vision blurred (模糊) as she scooped more food into his bowl, her “I’m so sorry” drowned by the kitchen’s chaos. That night, she found Marco weeping over a burnt pot, his apron splattered with failed attempts at cream sauce.
The next day, the team had a meeting. Lila, who was good at math, showed them numbers on paper. “We need 25 pounds of meat and 40 pounds of vegetables every day,” she said. “But we only have one-third of that.” The atmosphere seemed frozen, with everyone hanging their heads.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
After a while, Lila raised her head and said with a smile, “We all could turn to others for help.”

On Christmas Eve, the soup kitchen reopened.
