B 【解析】 【导语】文章介绍了塔马尔派斯山面临生态威胁，当地组织推出系列夏季公益户外活动，号召社区民众参与山林保护。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Lake Lagunitas Dragonflies部分“Visitors who drive need to pay an $8 parking fee(自驾游客需缴纳8美元停车费)”可知，该活动收取停车费。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Invasive Plant Patrol部分“runs rain or shine(风雨无阻照常开展)”可知，入侵植物巡查活动不受天气影响，正常举行。其余三项活动均可能因恶劣天气取消或推迟。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据首段“The One Tam partnership unites several park organizations to protect the land... It has planned a series of summer outdoor activities for community members(One Tam合作项目联合了多家公园机构共同保护这片土地……它为社区居民策划了一系列夏季户外活动。)”可知，这些活动的目的是让民众参与保护塔马尔派斯山。 B Growing up in America as a child of first-generation Chinese immigrants, I was used to living in two worlds. But as I grew older, the Chinese side faded away. While I happily accepted the red envelopes during Lunar New Year and consumed mooncakes on the Mid-Autumn Festival, I didn’t feel connected to the culture. Before my children were born, I had already decided that I would teach them Mandarin (普通话). I felt that they ought to be able to speak the language of their heritage. Parenting books advised describing your actions while playing with your children, so I started digging out the long-buried words during every activity: “ball”, “eat”, “sleep”, “play”. However, as this exercise continued, the gaps in my Mandarin became more and more obvious. Luckily, the ready availability of Chinese language media — from books to television shows to music — made things much easier. As they grew older, I took them to the local library where the tale of the Monkey King and the legend of Chang’e immediately caught their imagination. When I see my son converse with his grandfather in Mandarin or when my daughter insists on fish for Lunar New Year, the time spent reading all those books closely feels well-spent. Last fall, my youngest son recited Li Bai’s “Quiet Night Thoughts” for the Moon Festival performance at his preschool. His voice rang out with confidence and his arms swept up to indicate the moon above. Joy and wonder lit up my father’s face as he listened to the familiar verses from the mouth of his grandson. Decades ago, my Chinese teacher explained to me how the moon connects all those who seek its light, no matter how far apart they are. So, too, does language. It influences culture and history, and connects future generations to past ones. 4. What do we know about the author as a child? A. She travelled between two countries when young. B. She was brought up in an all-English environment. C. She once lost her sense of belonging to Chinese culture. D. She was attracted to Chinese traditional festivals the most. 5. How did the author teach her children Mandarin? A. Talking about her daily routine. B. Sending them to a Chinese teacher. C. Buying them ancient Chinese storybooks. D. Taking advantage of Chinese language media. 6. Which of the following can best describe the author? A. Ambitious. B. Devoted. C. Proud. D. Optimistic. 7. What lesson can be learnt from this article? A. All roads lead to Rome. B. Every cloud has a silver lining. C. Great minds think alike. D. Language bridges generations. 【答案】4. C 5. D 6. B 7. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了身为华裔二代移民的作者从小在美国长大，逐渐疏远中华文化，后来决心教自己的孩子学习普通话，借助日常言传、中文媒体与图书馆中文读物传承语言与文化，并从孩子能用中文交流、背诵古诗中感受到语言跨越时空、联结世代与文化的力量。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“But as I grew older, the Chinese side faded away. While I happily accepted the red envelopes during Lunar New Year and consumed mooncakes on the Mid-Autumn Festival, I didn’t feel connected to the culture.(但随着年龄增长，中国元素逐渐淡出了我的生活。虽然我每逢春节都开心地收下红包，在中秋节时享用月饼，却不再感受到与这种文化的联系)”可知，作者曾经失去了对中国文化的归属感。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Parenting books advised describing your actions while playing with your children, so I started digging out the long-buried words during every activity: “ball”, “eat”, “sleep”, “play”. However, as this exercise continued, the gaps in my Mandarin became more and more obvious. Luckily, the ready availability of Chinese language media-from books to television shows to music-made things much easier. As they grew older, I took them to the local library where the tale of the Monkey King and the legend of Chang’e immediately caught their imagination.(育儿书籍建议在和孩子玩耍时描述自己的动作，于是我开始在每次活动中重新翻出那些早已被遗忘的词语：“球”“吃”“睡”“玩”。然而，随着练习的进行，我的汉语水平差距变得越来越明显。幸运的是，中文媒体易获取、随处可得——从书籍、电视剧到音乐——让学习变得容易多了。当他们渐渐长大后，我带他们去了当地图书馆，那里孙悟空和嫦娥传说立刻激发了他们的想象力)”可知，作者利用中文媒体教孩子普通话。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Before my children were born, I had already decided that I would teach them Mandarin.(在我孩子出生之前，我就已经决定要教他们汉语了)”及文章第三段描述作者如何利用中文媒体教孩子们普通话的经历可知，作者为了让孩子传承母语，主动重拾自己早已生疏的普通话，借助各类资源坚持教孩子中文，付出了大量时间精力，是非常用心投入的，devoted（投入的、尽心的）最符合对她的描述。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Decades ago, my Chinese teacher explained to me how the moon connects all those who seek its light, no matter how far apart they are. So, too, does language. It influences culture and history, and connects future generations to past ones.(几十年前，我的中文老师向我解释过，月亮连接着所有追寻其光芒的人，无论他们相隔多远。语言也是如此，它影响着文化与历史，并将后代与过去联系在一起)”可知，作者教自己的孩子学习普通话，从孩子能用中文交流、背诵古诗中感受到语言跨越时空、联结世代与文化的力量可知，文章主旨是语言与文化能够跨越时空、联结人们。 C Human well-being depends on the ability to navigate the social world. Such social skill depends on reliable feedback: acts of kindness may be met with gratitude; on other occasions, a misstep brings about a friend’s disapproval and recognition that an apology is needed. These moments are crucial for deepening trust and personal growth. Social life is rarely frictionless, because people are not perfectly in tune with one another. Yet it is precisely through such social friction that relationships deepen and moral understanding develops. Sycophancy (谄媚) is the opposite of this friction. Many users experience this when AI enthusiastically agrees with their ideas or writing. In academic contexts, the consequence may be investing more time in an average idea. But as AI systems are increasingly consulted for guidance about relationships and conflicts, affirmation of this kind may shape how people interpret their own actions and their perspectives of others, and in turn, how they respond to conflict and whether they take responsibility when things go wrong. Now imagine a world where people routinely consult a sycophantic AI about interpersonal conflicts or moral dilemmas. They are repeatedly assured that they are right, that others are wrong, and that no apology is needed. Over time, this patterned sycophancy may reshape expectations about what feedback should feel like. Individuals may begin to anticipate the same constant affirmation from real human beings. The cumulative effect is a reduction in tolerance for the very social friction through which accountability, perspective-taking, and growth occur. An AI companion that is always “on your side” may keep users engaged and dependent. But it cannot teach them how to handle real relationships — how to disagree respectfully, repair damaged trust, or accept being wrong. Although AI could be improved to promote long-term personal development, such goals conflict with systems built to maximize user engagement. Challenging users or presenting uncomfortable truths is a sure way to drive them away. This tension raises fundamental ethical questions: Should we prioritize immediate emotional comfort or long-term social health? Who gets to decide? Addressing these challenges will require interdisciplinary collaboration among computer scientists, social scientists, ethicists, and policy makers. 8. Which of the following is NOT a consequence of sycophantic AI? A. Misguided judgment about one’s actions. B. Reduced tolerance for interpersonal friction. C. Weakened willingness to take responsibility. D. Increased ability to resolve real-life conflicts. 9. What prevents AI systems from being improved to challenge users? A. Lack of technical capacity. B. Conflicts with commercial interests. C. Unawareness of its potential harm. D. Absence of interdisciplinary collaboration. 10. What is the author’s attitude toward current AI systems? A. Strictly neutral. B. Strongly opposed. C. Cautiously concerned. D. Mildly supportive. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. AI Sycophancy: A Hidden Risk to People’s Social Growth B. Social Friction: The Key to Healthy Human Relationships C. Ethical Dilemmas Faced by Modern AI Technology D. Can AI Companions Help Solve Interpersonal Conflicts? 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】文章指出一味迎合用户的谄媚式人工智能存在隐患，它会让人难以接受社交摩擦、不利于人际能力与道德认知的成长，并引出相关伦理难题。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“But as AI systems are increasingly consulted for guidance about relationships and conflicts, affirmation of this kind may shape how people interpret their own actions and their perspectives of others, and in turn, how they respond to conflict and whether they take responsibility when things go wrong. (但当人们越来越多地向人工智能咨询人际关系和矛盾方面的建议时，这种一味附和会影响人们解读自身行为、看待他人的方式，进而影响他们处理冲突的方式，以及出现问题时是否愿意承担责任。)”可知，谄媚的人工智能会削弱而不是提高人们解决现实冲突的能力。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Although AI could be improved to promote long-term personal development, such goals conflict with systems built to maximize user engagement. Challenging users or presenting uncomfortable truths is a sure way to drive them away. (尽管人工智能本可以优化，助力人的长期发展，但这个目标和这类系统追求用户活跃度最大化的设计目标相互冲突。对用户提出质疑、说出让人难以接受的真相，一定会把用户赶走。)”可知，平台目标是最大化用户活跃度（商业利益），质疑用户会流失用户，二者冲突，所以是商业利益阻碍了人工智能系统的改进。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“This tension raises fundamental ethical questions: Should we prioritize immediate emotional comfort or long-term social health? Who gets to decide? (这种矛盾带来了根本性的伦理问题：我们该优先满足当下的情绪慰藉，还是保障长期社交层面的良性发展？谁有权来做这个决定？)”可知，作者指出隐患、提出伦理拷问，但没有全盘否定人工智能，只是表达审慎的担忧。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段中“An AI companion that is always ‘on your side’ may keep users engaged and dependent. But it cannot teach them how to handle real relationships — how to disagree respectfully, repair damaged trust, or accept being wrong. (一个永远站在你这边的人工智能陪伴程序，确实能够留住用户，让用户产生依赖。但它无法教会人们如何经营真实的人际关系——如何带着尊重提出不同意见、修复受损的信任，或是承认自己的错误。)”并结合全文可知，文章围绕人工智能谄媚附和这一现象展开，阐述它对人的社交成长潜藏的风险。A选项“AI Sycophancy: A Hidden Risk to People’s Social Growth (人工智能谄媚：对人类社交成长暗藏的风险)”最贴合核心主旨，适合作为标题。 D Since Francis Galton coined the phrase “nature vs nurture (环境因素)” 150 years ago, the debate about what makes us who we are has dominated the human sciences. Today, however, a new scientific field is set to reshape the debate — not by declaring victory for one side or the other, nor even by calling a tie, but rather by revealing they were never in opposition in the first place. Through this new perspective, nature and nurture are not even entirely distinguishable, because genes and environment don’t operate in isolation; they influence each other and to a very real degree even create each other. The new field is called sociogenomics, an integration of behavioral science and genetics. Despite being a relatively new area of study, it has the potential to rewrite a great deal of what we think we know about who we are and how we got that way. Genes don’t affect who we become just on their own, inside our bodies — they work, in part, by shaping the environments we look for or produce. At other times, the nature-nurture feedback circle may be more pernicious. It’s no surprise that terrible setbacks — the loss of a job, the end of a marriage — can cause people to fall into depression. I was astonished to learn, however, that people with a high genetic tendency for depression are more likely to encounter these setbacks, which in turn contribute to their depression. That’s not to say that any of it is their fault, just that the way we’re supported and the world we pilot are closely linked. Here is the part of this research that really blows me away. The research suggests that your partner’s genes influence your likelihood of depression almost a third as much as your own genes do. It also shows when a small number of students with a genetic tendency to smoke are present in a high school, smoking rates can rise rapidly across an entire grade — even among those students who didn’t personally know those classmates. Genes alone aren’t enough to determine these outcomes and neither is environment. Nature and nurture both shape each other, with nature influencing the way we experience nurture and nurture influencing the way our nature expresses itself. The more opportunities and information the environment provides — the more varied environments become — the greater the influence that genetic variation has in sorting us into different categories. Nature and nurture aren’t separate forces — they’re endlessly circling back on each other. 12. Prior to the emergence of sociogenomics, it was widely believed that ________. A. genes and environment functioned separately B. there was no clear line between nature and nurture C. environment shaped our perception of who we are D. nature mattered more than nurture for personal growth 13. The underlined word “pernicious” (paragraph 4) is closest in meaning to “________”. A. disastrous B. generative C. pointless D. questionable 14. It can be inferred that the research shocked the writer by suggesting that ________. A. our genes may change because of the people we live with B. nature determines our behaviour just as much as nurture does C. people with the same genes are more likely to interact with each other D. the genes of people around us can affect the environment we experience 15. Which of the following pictures correctly illustrates how nature and nurture make us who we are? A. B. C. D. 【答案】12. A 13. A 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要介绍了社会基因组学这一新兴科学领域对传统“先天vs环境因素”辩论的重新定义，揭示了基因与环境之间相互影响、相互塑造的复杂关系。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Since Francis Galton coined the phrase “nature vs nurture (环境因素)” 150 years ago, the debate about what makes us who we are has dominated the human sciences.(自150年前弗朗西斯·高尔顿提出“先天与环境因素”这一说法以来，关于什么塑造了我们的争论便一直主导着人文科学领域)”、第二段中“Today, however, a new scientific field is set to reshape the debate — not by declaring victory for one side or the other, nor even by calling a tie, but rather by revealing they were never in opposition in the first place.(然而，如今一个新的科学领域即将重塑这场争论——它不是通过宣布某一方获胜，甚至也不是宣告平局，而是揭示出它们从一开始就并非对立)”和第三段中“The new field is called sociogenomics, an integration of behavioral science and genetics.(这个新领域被称为社会基因组学，是行为科学与遗传学的交叉融合)”可知，在社会基因组学出现之前，人们普遍认为先天和环境因素是对立的，即基因和环境是分开作用的。故选A项。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段中“At other times, the nature-nurture feedback circle may be more pernicious. It’s no surprise that terrible setbacks — the loss of a job, the end of a marriage — can cause people to fall into depression. I was astonished to learn, however, that people with a high genetic tendency for depression are more likely to encounter these setbacks, which in turn contribute to their depression.(在其他时候，先天与环境因素的反馈循环可能更pernicious。失业、婚姻破裂等可怕的挫折会导致人们陷入抑郁，这并不奇怪。然而，我惊讶地发现，那些在基因上更容易患抑郁症的人，更有可能遭遇这些挫折，而这些挫折反过来又会加重他们的抑郁)”可推知，这种先天与环境因素的反馈循环更有害的，更具有破坏性。故划线词pernicious意为“有害的；破坏性的”，与A项“disastrous”意义相近。故选A项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中“Here is the part of this research that really blows me away. The research suggests that your partner’s genes influence your likelihood of depression almost a third as much as your own genes do. It also shows when a small number of students with a genetic tendency to smoke are present in a high school, smoking rates can rise rapidly across an entire grade (这项研究中真正让我震惊的是这一部分。研究表明，伴侣的基因对你患抑郁症可能性的影响几乎达到你自己基因影响的三分之一。研究还表明，当高中有少数具有吸烟遗传倾向的学生时，整个年级的吸烟率会迅速上升)”可推知，这项研究让作者感到震惊的是，我们周围人的基因可以影响我们所处的环境。故选D项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Through this new perspective, nature and nurture are not even entirely distinguishable, because genes and environment don’t operate in isolation; they influence each other and to a very real degree even create each other.(从这个新的角度来看，先天和环境因素甚至不能完全区分，因为基因和环境并不是孤立地起作用的；它们相互影响，甚至在很大程度上相互创造)”、第六段中“Nature and nurture both shape each other, with nature influencing the way we experience nurture and nurture influencing the way our nature expresses itself. (先天与环境因素相互塑造，先天影响我们体验环境的方式，环境因素影响我们天性表达的方式)”和最后一段“Nature and nurture aren’t separate forces — they’re endlessly circling back on each other. (先天与环境因素并非两种分离的力量——它们无休止地相互循环)”可知，二者并非两种分离的力量，是相互影响，相互创造的关系。故选C项。 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。 The integration of AI into education is rapidly shifting from theoretical discussion to practical application.

Every day, we ____21____ decisions to the internet: should we stay at that hotel, eat at this restaurant, ride with that driver? We have become so used to the large-scale insights afforded by technology. Many of us wouldn’t even buy a toaster without first checking ____22____. Their accessibility and apparent authority mean that simply picking an appliance at random is almost ____23____ — why wouldn’t you ask Google first? And yet, when it comes to many more fundamental choices — like what we choose to study — we often trust our instincts. This, argues economist Seth Davidowitz, is where we are going wrong. ____24____, following our instincts can lead us to act on hidden prejudices or to keep following dead-end paths. In his new book Don’t Trust Your Gut: Using data instead of instinct to make better choices, Seth Davidowitz brings together “credible answers to important questions” as revealed by vast online data, so we can ____25____ them in order to be more successful and happier. “While we often think we know how to ____26____ ourselves, the numbers, it turns out, ____27____,” he writes. Some findings are indeed ____28____, going against common belief — for example, the overstated advantage of youth in starting a business. Others, however, may be more ____29____ expectations: we often overestimate the pleasure of passive activities such as snacking and watching TV. Research by the London School of Economics found that even relaxing tends to make people feel less happy than anticipated. On the other hand, we underestimate the ____30____ to our mood from visiting museums or libraries. From work to relationships, Seth Davidowitz looks to the data for ____31____ on key decisions and, where possible, tries it out for himself. In his book he writes that he used AI, market research and statistical analysis — putting more than 100 edited images of himself into an online survey — to find out that people generally prefer him with glasses and a beard. Though entertaining, his book is most practical when it ____32____ popular assumptions and demonstrates what works best for most people, so that all of us might learn from their example. But his somewhat idealist view of data may create a ____33____ with a world already transformed by it. ____34____ may not lie, as Seth Davidowitz writes — but nor do they reveal the complete, complex picture, especially when they are controlled by corporate ____35____. When our behaviour is already being shaped by data in ways of which we aren’t aware, perhaps success isn’t always a matter of making the right decision. 21.

D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了经济学家Seth Davidowitz的新书Don’t Trust Your Gut: Using data instead of instinct to make better choices，论述了利用数据而非直觉做决策的重要性，同时也指出了数据的局限性。 【21题详解】 考查动词。句意：每一天，我们都把决策外包给互联网：我们应该住那家酒店、吃那家餐厅、搭那个司机的车吗？A. outsource外包，转交；B. submit提交；C. assign分配；D. transfer转移。根据下文“decisions to the internet”以及“why wouldn’t you ask Google first?”可知，人们把决策转交给互联网完成。 【22题详解】 考查名词。句意：我们很多人甚至会先查评论再买烤面包机。A. instructions说明；B. advertisements广告；C. reviews评论；D. algorithms算法。根据上文“Every day, we ________ decisions to the internet: should we stay at that hotel, eat at this restaurant, ride with that driver?” 以及下文“Their accessibility and apparent authority mean that simply picking an appliance at random”可知，普通人购买小家电前习惯先查看其他用户的评价作为参考。 【23题详解】 考查形容词。句意：它们的易获取性和显而易见的权威性意味着，随机挑选一个电器几乎是不可想象的——你为什么不先问问谷歌呢？A. rewarding有回报的；B. exhausting令人疲惫的；C. effortless毫不费力的；D. unthinkable不可想象的。根据下文“why wouldn’t you ask Google first?”的反问可知，如今人们已经完全习惯借助网络参考做决策，随机选电器的行为几乎没人会做、是难以想象的。 【24题详解】 考查短语。句意：毕竟，跟随直觉会让我们基于隐藏的偏见行事，或者一直走死胡同。A. By contrast相比之下；B. After all毕竟；C. Even so即便如此；D. In short简而言之。根据上文“economist Seth Davidowitz, is where we are going wrong”可知，此处是对“依赖直觉做基础选择是错误的”这一观点给出合理的解释、补充原因，用After all符合逻辑。 【25题详解】 考查动词。句意：在他的新书Don’t Trust Your Gut: Using data instead of instinct to make better choices中，Seth Davidowitz汇集了海量在线数据揭示的“重要问题的可靠答案”，这样我们就可以运用它们来获得更大的成功和幸福感。A. evaluate评估；B. express表达；C. apply应用，运用；D. test测试。根据下文“in order to be more successful and happier”可知，汇总这些数据结论的目的是让人们将其用到实际决策中获益。 【26题详解】 考查动词。句意：他写道：“虽然我们常常认为自己知道如何让自己变得更好，但事实证明，数字（给出的答案）却并不认同（我们的直觉）。”A. protect保护；B. entertain娱乐；C. better改善，使更好；D. excuse原谅。根据上文“While we often think we know how to ”以及下文“the numbers, it turns out”可知，前后形成对比关系，因此此处对应人们直觉上认为自己知道怎么让自己变得更好。 【27题详解】 考查动词。句意：他写道：“虽然我们常常认为自己知道如何让自己变得更好，但事实证明，数字（给出的答案）却并不认同（我们的直觉）。”A. remain保持；B. disagree不一致，不同意；C. approve支持；D. vary变化。根据第三段“going against common belief”可知，很多时候数据得出的结论和人们自认的“让自己变好”的直觉是相悖的。 【28题详解】 考查形容词。句意：有些发现确实令人惊讶，违背了普遍认知——比如，创业时年轻人的优势被夸大了。A. misleading误导的；B. original原创的；C. surprising令人惊讶的；D. experimental实验性的。根据下文“going against common belief”的直接提示可知，反常识的发现会让人觉得意外。 【29题详解】 考查形容词短语。句意：然而，其他发现可能更符合预期：我们经常高估吃零食和看电视等被动活动带来的快乐。A. dependent on依赖；B. beneficial to对……有益；C. consistent with与……一致；D. strict about对……严格。根据上文“Some findings are indeed ________, going against common belief — for example, the overstated advantage of youth in starting a business. ”可知，前文提到部分发现反常识，用however转折后对应另一些发现和大众的固有认知是吻合的。 【30题详解】 考查名词。句意：另一方面，我们低估了参观博物馆或图书馆对情绪的提升作用。A. boost提升，促进；B. cost成本；C. risk风险；D. boredom无聊。根据上文“we often overestimate the pleasure of passive activities”的对比逻辑可知，此处指我们低估了文化类活动给情绪带来的正向增益。 【31题详解】 考查名词。句意：从工作到人际关系，Seth Davidowitz从数据中寻找关键决策的指导，并在可能的情况下亲自尝试。A. convenience便利；B. guidance指导；C. diversity多样性；D. precision精确度。根据上文“looks to the data for”以及下文“on key decisions”可知，这里指用数据辅助人们做出更好的决策，也就是从数据中获取决策的参考指引。 【32题详解】 考查动词。句意：尽管很有趣，但他的书最实用的地方在于，它挑战了流行的假设，展示了对大多数人来说最有效的方法，这样我们所有人都可以从他们的例子中学习。A. challenges挑战；B. repeats重复；C. introduces介绍；D. settles解决。根据第三段“Some findings are indeed ________, going against common belief — for example, the overstated advantage of youth in starting a business. Others, however, may be more ________ expectations: we often overestimate the pleasure of passive activities such as snacking and watching TV. Research by the London School of Economics found that even relaxing tends to make people feel less happy than anticipated. On the other hand, we underestimate the ________ to our mood from visiting museums or libraries.”可知，前文多次提到书中很多结论与常见看法相反，也就是对大众普遍持有的固有假设提出了质疑和挑战。 【33题详解】 考查名词。句意：但他对数据有些理想化的看法可能会与一个已经被数据改变的世界产生冲突。A. conflict冲突，矛盾；B. conversation对话；C. balance平衡；D. relationship关系。根据下文“but nor do they reveal the complete, complex picture”可知，数据并不会展现完整复杂的全貌，说明Seth完全信任数据的理想化观点和现实世界的实际情况是存在矛盾的。 【34题详解】 考查名词。句意：正如Seth Davidowitz所写的那样，数字可能不会说谎——但它们也不会展现完整、复杂的图景，尤其是当它们被企业利益控制的时候。A. Books书籍；B. Resources资源；C. Numbers数字；D. Instincts直觉。根据第二段“the numbers, it turns out”可知，此处对应Seth的观点“数字不会说谎”。 【35题详解】 考查名词。句意：正如Seth Davidowitz所写的那样，数字可能不会说谎——但它们也不会展现完整、复杂的图景，尤其是当它们被企业利益控制的时候。A. records记录；B. habits习惯；C. tastes品味；D. interests利益。根据上文“But his somewhat idealist view of data may create a ________ with a world already transformed by it. ________ may not lie, as Seth Davidowitz writes — but nor do they reveal the complete, complex picture, especially when they are controlled by corporate ”可知，前文指出数据不会说谎，但无法呈现完整复杂的全貌，递进说明当数据被企业层面的利益所把控时，其局限性会进一步凸显。 第二节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 Last month, a group of international visual creators and bloggers from nine countries ____36____ (tour) the Yungang Grottoes (洞穴) and the Hanging Temple in Datong, Shanxi province, to learn about ancient architecture and achievements in digital ____37____ (preserve).

Having graduated at the top of my junior high class, I found it tough to adapt to the new environment. The new school was much larger, and all my close friends had gone to other schools, leaving me lonely and depressed. I often missed my former teachers, who advised me to take part in school activities to make new friends and settle in gradually. Just when things began to improve, tragedy hit my family on a cold windy afternoon. While I was doing homework with my pet cat beside me and my mother tending the fireplace, thick smoke poured down from the ceiling, and the roof quickly caught fire. We fled immediately. Worried about photos and letters left by my late father, my mother rushed back into the burning house twice to save precious belongings. She was pulled out by firefighters safely, suffering only from slight smoke inhalation (吸入). After five hours of efforts, the fire was put out, but our house was totally destroyed. To my great sorrow, my beloved cat went missing. Devastated (击垮) by the heavy losses, I cried sadly. That night, we had to move to my grandparents’ house, with nothing but the clothes on our bodies and blankets offered by firefighters. On the following Monday, I went to school in borrowed clothes and shoes. All my school supplies were burned up. Overwhelmed by embarrassment and grief, I felt totally insecure and withdrew from everyone. Before long, the whole school learned about my terrible experience. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 When I was sitting silently in my classroom, a group of classmates came up to me. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ However, I still felt upset about my missing cat. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 When I was sitting silently in my classroom, a group of classmates came up to me. Instead of surrounding me with sympathetic questions that might hurt my feelings, they greeted me with gentle, reassuring smiles. One of my classmates softly comforted me that hardship never lasted, and the whole class would stand by me. To help me get back on track, they generously shared their stationery, textbooks and notes they had carefully sorted out. Their consideration and kindness eased my sorrow and embarrassment, warming my lonely heart in the coldest days. However, I still felt upset about my missing cat. Seeing my low spirits, my classmates offered to help look for it. After scanning every corner of the neighborhood together, we finally found my lost cat, scared but unharmed. When I held the little fluffy cat in my arms again, I was overcome with emotion and tears streamed down my face. Gradually, I stepped out of despair and loneliness, actively adapting to high school life. It was my new classmates’ selflessness and kindness that pulled me through the darkest time and made me feel at home in the new school. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者升入高中后因环境陌生、好友分离而感到孤独抑郁，好不容易逐渐适应时又遭遇家中火灾，房屋被毁、爱猫走失，身穿借来的衣物返校后陷入自卑与退缩的困境，最终在同学们的关爱与帮助下重拾信心、融入新校园的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写同学们没有让作者难堪，而是以温暖友善的方式安慰并帮助他，让他感受到集体的温暖。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写同学们主动帮作者寻找猫咪，最终找到后作者深受感动，走出阴霾、融入新学校。 2.续写线索：同学安慰——分享学习用品——内心温暖——寻找猫咪——找回爱猫——感动落泪——走出低谷——感悟同学情谊 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①安慰：comfort/console ②寻找：look for/search for 情绪类 ①温柔地：softly/gently ②积极地：actively/positively 【点睛】[高分句型1] Instead of surrounding me with sympathetic questions that might hurt my feelings, they greeted me with gentle, reassuring smiles.（由that引导的定语从句修饰questions） [高分句型2] It was my new classmates’ selflessness and kindness that pulled me through the darkest time and made me feel at home in the new school.（由It was...that...构成的强调句型） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 郑州外国语学校2026-2027学年高三上期第三次调研考试试卷 英 语 （120分钟 150分） 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话读两遍。 1.

Tamalpais is a beloved local treasure. However, the mountain faces threats from invasive (侵入的) weeds, forest diseases and climate change.

The summer activities are intended to ________. A. train volunteers in different outdoor skills B. involve people in protecting Mt. Tamalpais C. show the current condition of Mt. Tamalpais D. attract more tourists to enjoy mountain scenery B Growing up in America as a child of first-generation Chinese immigrants, I was used to living in two worlds. But as I grew older, the Chinese side faded away. While I happily accepted the red envelopes during Lunar New Year and consumed mooncakes on the Mid-Autumn Festival, I didn’t feel connected to the culture. Before my children were born, I had already decided that I would teach them Mandarin (普通话). I felt that they ought to be able to speak the language of their heritage. Parenting books advised describing your actions while playing with your children, so I started digging out the long-buried words during every activity: “ball”, “eat”, “sleep”, “play”. However, as this exercise continued, the gaps in my Mandarin became more and more obvious. Luckily, the ready availability of Chinese language media — from books to television shows to music — made things much easier. As they grew older, I took them to the local library where the tale of the Monkey King and the legend of Chang’e immediately caught their imagination. When I see my son converse with his grandfather in Mandarin or when my daughter insists on fish for Lunar New Year, the time spent reading all those books closely feels well-spent. Last fall, my youngest son recited Li Bai’s “Quiet Night Thoughts” for the Moon Festival performance at his preschool. His voice rang out with confidence and his arms swept up to indicate the moon above. Joy and wonder lit up my father’s face as he listened to the familiar verses from the mouth of his grandson. Decades ago, my Chinese teacher explained to me how the moon connects all those who seek its light, no matter how far apart they are. So, too, does language. It influences culture and history, and connects future generations to past ones. 4. What do we know about the author as a child? A. She travelled between two countries when young. B. She was brought up in an all-English environment. C. She once lost her sense of belonging to Chinese culture. D. She was attracted to Chinese traditional festivals the most. 5. How did the author teach her children Mandarin? A. Talking about her daily routine. B. Sending them to a Chinese teacher. C. Buying them ancient Chinese storybooks. D. Taking advantage of Chinese language media. 6. Which of the following can best describe the author? A. Ambitious. B. Devoted. C. Proud. D. Optimistic. 7. What lesson can be learnt from this article? A. All roads lead to Rome. B. Every cloud has a silver lining. C. Great minds think alike. D. Language bridges generations. C Human well-being depends on the ability to navigate the social world. Such social skill depends on reliable feedback: acts of kindness may be met with gratitude; on other occasions, a misstep brings about a friend’s disapproval and recognition that an apology is needed. These moments are crucial for deepening trust and personal growth. Social life is rarely frictionless, because people are not perfectly in tune with one another. Yet it is precisely through such social friction that relationships deepen and moral understanding develops. Sycophancy (谄媚) is the opposite of this friction. Many users experience this when AI enthusiastically agrees with their ideas or writing. In academic contexts, the consequence may be investing more time in an average idea. But as AI systems are increasingly consulted for guidance about relationships and conflicts, affirmation of this kind may shape how people interpret their own actions and their perspectives of others, and in turn, how they respond to conflict and whether they take responsibility when things go wrong. Now imagine a world where people routinely consult a sycophantic AI about interpersonal conflicts or moral dilemmas. They are repeatedly assured that they are right, that others are wrong, and that no apology is needed. Over time, this patterned sycophancy may reshape expectations about what feedback should feel like. Individuals may begin to anticipate the same constant affirmation from real human beings. The cumulative effect is a reduction in tolerance for the very social friction through which accountability, perspective-taking, and growth occur. An AI companion that is always “on your side” may keep users engaged and dependent. But it cannot teach them how to handle real relationships — how to disagree respectfully, repair damaged trust, or accept being wrong. Although AI could be improved to promote long-term personal development, such goals conflict with systems built to maximize user engagement. Challenging users or presenting uncomfortable truths is a sure way to drive them away. This tension raises fundamental ethical questions: Should we prioritize immediate emotional comfort or long-term social health? Who gets to decide? Addressing these challenges will require interdisciplinary collaboration among computer scientists, social scientists, ethicists, and policy makers. 8.

D Since Francis Galton coined the phrase “nature vs nurture (环境因素)” 150 years ago, the debate about what makes us who we are has dominated the human sciences. Today, however, a new scientific field is set to reshape the debate — not by declaring victory for one side or the other, nor even by calling a tie, but rather by revealing they were never in opposition in the first place. Through this new perspective, nature and nurture are not even entirely distinguishable, because genes and environment don’t operate in isolation; they influence each other and to a very real degree even create each other. The new field is called sociogenomics, an integration of behavioral science and genetics. Despite being a relatively new area of study, it has the potential to rewrite a great deal of what we think we know about who we are and how we got that way. Genes don’t affect who we become just on their own, inside our bodies — they work, in part, by shaping the environments we look for or produce. At other times, the nature-nurture feedback circle may be more pernicious. It’s no surprise that terrible setbacks — the loss of a job, the end of a marriage — can cause people to fall into depression. I was astonished to learn, however, that people with a high genetic tendency for depression are more likely to encounter these setbacks, which in turn contribute to their depression. That’s not to say that any of it is their fault, just that the way we’re supported and the world we pilot are closely linked. Here is the part of this research that really blows me away. The research suggests that your partner’s genes influence your likelihood of depression almost a third as much as your own genes do. It also shows when a small number of students with a genetic tendency to smoke are present in a high school, smoking rates can rise rapidly across an entire grade — even among those students who didn’t personally know those classmates. Genes alone aren’t enough to determine these outcomes and neither is environment. Nature and nurture both shape each other, with nature influencing the way we experience nurture and nurture influencing the way our nature expresses itself. The more opportunities and information the environment provides — the more varied environments become — the greater the influence that genetic variation has in sorting us into different categories. Nature and nurture aren’t separate forces — they’re endlessly circling back on each other. 12. Prior to the emergence of sociogenomics, it was widely believed that ________. A. genes and environment functioned separately B. there was no clear line between nature and nurture C. environment shaped our perception of who we are D. nature mattered more than nurture for personal growth 13. The underlined word “pernicious” (paragraph 4) is closest in meaning to “________”. A. disastrous B. generative C. pointless D. questionable 14. It can be inferred that the research shocked the writer by suggesting that ________. A. our genes may change because of the people we live with B. nature determines our behaviour just as much as nurture does C. people with the same genes are more likely to interact with each other D. the genes of people around us can affect the environment we experience 15. Which of the following pictures correctly illustrates how nature and nurture make us who we are? A. B. C. D. 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。 The integration of AI into education is rapidly shifting from theoretical discussion to practical application. Once viewed with doubt, AI is now emerging as a powerful ally (助手) in the classroom, particularly in the field of academic writing. As students face complex research and communication demands, and teachers deal with growing class sizes and grading loads, AI writing tools offer innovative solutions that support both sides of the educational process. ____16____ These tools are transforming the learning landscape, providing personalized feedback, and facilitating efficient content generation. ____17____ A good AI writing tool can also help learners become more confident, clear-thinking and critical communicators. Meanwhile, it allows teachers to focus more on high-level teaching and individual guidance. ____18____ The large volume of writing assignments to grade can be stressful, often leading to burnout and a struggle to provide timely feedback. AI writing tools are stepping in to ease this burden. They can perform grammar checks, detect academic dishonesty, and offer revision suggestions. By handling these basic tasks, AI frees up teachers to focus on guiding complex thinking and addressing individual learning needs. For students, AI writing tools act as personalized learning partners that adapt to individual needs. ____19____ They struggle with organizing ideas and expressing themselves clearly in writing. AI can generate starter ideas, provide instant grammar feedback, and help create logical outlines, building confidence and independence. However, the power of AI in education also brings notable risks. Over-reliance may weaken students’ thinking skills, and unequal access to advanced tools could widen the learning gap between students. ____20____ With clear guidelines and proper training, AI can become a powerful force for developing deeper thinking and more meaningful learning experiences. A. For many learners, writing can be a real challenge. B. Yet they can do far more than perform these practical tasks. C. Thus, balancing AI support with human oversight is critical. D. They aim to assist, not replace, the work of teachers and students. E. This technology helps reduce the heavy marking load on teachers. F. However, teachers need proper training to use these tools effectively. G. It also encourages teachers to rethink how they design their assignments. 第三部分 语言知识运用（共2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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Who, or what, do you trust? Every day, we ____21____ decisions to the internet: should we stay at that hotel, eat at this restaurant, ride with that driver? We have become so used to the large-scale insights afforded by technology. Many of us wouldn’t even buy a toaster without first checking ____22____. Their accessibility and apparent authority mean that simply picking an appliance at random is almost ____23____ — why wouldn’t you ask Google first? And yet, when it comes to many more fundamental choices — like what we choose to study — we often trust our instincts. This, argues economist Seth Davidowitz, is where we are going wrong. ____24____, following our instincts can lead us to act on hidden prejudices or to keep following dead-end paths. In his new book Don’t Trust Your Gut: Using data instead of instinct to make better choices, Seth Davidowitz brings together “credible answers to important questions” as revealed by vast online data, so we can ____25____ them in order to be more successful and happier. “While we often think we know how to ____26____ ourselves, the numbers, it turns out, ____27____,” he writes. Some findings are indeed ____28____, going against common belief — for example, the overstated advantage of youth in starting a business. Others, however, may be more ____29____ expectations: we often overestimate the pleasure of passive activities such as snacking and watching TV. Research by the London School of Economics found that even relaxing tends to make people feel less happy than anticipated. On the other hand, we underestimate the ____30____ to our mood from visiting museums or libraries. From work to relationships, Seth Davidowitz looks to the data for ____31____ on key decisions and, where possible, tries it out for himself. In his book he writes that he used AI, market research and statistical analysis — putting more than 100 edited images of himself into an online survey — to find out that people generally prefer him with glasses and a beard. Though entertaining, his book is most practical when it ____32____ popular assumptions and demonstrates what works best for most people, so that all of us might learn from their example. But his somewhat idealist view of data may create a ____33____ with a world already transformed by it. ____34____ may not lie, as Seth Davidowitz writes — but nor do they reveal the complete, complex picture, especially when they are controlled by corporate ____35____. When our behaviour is already being shaped by data in ways of which we aren’t aware, perhaps success isn’t always a matter of making the right decision. 21.

The Yungang Grottoes were first carved during the Northern Wei Dynasty, making them China’s first large-scale royal grotto complex constructed after the introduction of Buddhism. Local authorities ____38____ (advance) digital conservation efforts and research on Yungang studies since 2003. Fabio Nodari, ____39____ Italian photographer, visited Shanxi for the second time. In his view, the Yungang Grottoes site represents the combination of multiple ethnic groups and diverse cultures. “The statues’ ____40____ (face) features, colorful costumes, and decorative patterns contain a wealth of foreign cultural elements ____41____ (integrate) with Chinese artistic elements, forming a distinctive style ____42____ their own among China’s art treasures,” he said. Veldesen Yaputra, a blogger from Indonesia, said after the show, “Digital technology allows us ____43____ (visualize) the grotto statues, and also helps audiences truly appreciate ____44____ ancient craftsmen created such an amazing architectural miracle.” The tour group recorded their visits in the form of short videos, photography and paintings, ____45____ (share) Shanxi’s stories with audiences at home and abroad.

Having graduated at the top of my junior high class, I found it tough to adapt to the new environment. The new school was much larger, and all my close friends had gone to other schools, leaving me lonely and depressed. I often missed my former teachers, who advised me to take part in school activities to make new friends and settle in gradually. Just when things began to improve, tragedy hit my family on a cold windy afternoon. While I was doing homework with my pet cat beside me and my mother tending the fireplace, thick smoke poured down from the ceiling, and the roof quickly caught fire. We fled immediately. Worried about photos and letters left by my late father, my mother rushed back into the burning house twice to save precious belongings. She was pulled out by firefighters safely, suffering only from slight smoke inhalation (吸入). After five hours of efforts, the fire was put out, but our house was totally destroyed. To my great sorrow, my beloved cat went missing. Devastated (击垮) by the heavy losses, I cried sadly. That night, we had to move to my grandparents’ house, with nothing but the clothes on our bodies and blankets offered by firefighters. On the following Monday, I went to school in borrowed clothes and shoes. All my school supplies were burned up. Overwhelmed by embarrassment and grief, I felt totally insecure and withdrew from everyone. Before long, the whole school learned about my terrible experience. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 When I was sitting silently in my classroom, a group of classmates came up to me. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ However, I still felt upset about my missing cat. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
