Let's talk about having a healthier relationship with social media. We all use IT, but sometimes you can leave us feeling drained or inadequate. First, remember that what you see online is a highlight. Real, not real life people. People naturally post their best moments, not their struggles. Comparing your everyday life to someone else is curated. Best is a recipe for unhappiness. Second, take control of your feet. You are the curator of your own online experience. Even an account constantly makes you feel bad about yourself. And follow IT, fill your feed with content that inspires, educates or genuinely entertains you. Follow artists, scientists, hobbyists, people who share your interests, not just influencer selling a lifestyle. Finally, be intentional about your usage. Ask yourself, why am I opening this upgrade now? Is that out of habit, boredom or a genuine desire to connect, set specific times for checking social media and stick to them, consider turning off nonessential notifications to reduce the constant poll?

Traditional warehouse (仓库) work, which mainly depends on human sorting and paper-based record-keeping, always brings about obvious troubles: It wastes plenty of working hours on moving goods across large areas, makes repeated mistakes when checking product information, and can never deal with sudden rises in orders in a timely way. To get rid of these limits, a partitioned (分段) intelligent management system has been widely used in large warehouses, whose integrated design makes every work link closely connected and highly efficient. Operation Area Basic Equipment Core Work Sorting Zone Automatic conveyors & electronic screens Classify goods by delivery destinations; show real-time order data Inspection Zone Portable scanners & data terminals (终端) Check goods quantity; maintain round-the-clock revisions to storage records Delivery Zone Remote-controlled transport vehicles Carry grouped goods to loading areas; follow fixed travel routes All working areas send collected information to a shared central data platform, where managers can watch over the whole operation at any time. Once a new order arrives, the system will first pass on relevant messages to the sorting zone, and the checked goods will be transported to the delivery zone step by step later. This smart system not only greatly cuts down labor costs but also makes the whole distribution process more orderly. It allows warehouses to handle more orders every day and effectively lowers the error rate caused by human work. 21．(2.5分)What are the troubles of traditional warehouses? A．Too much modern equipment. B．Slow online shopping growth. C．Rigid delivery demands. D．Frequent checking errors. 22．(2.5分)What does the checking area focus on? A．Monitoring display screens. B．Tracking goods quality. C．Updating warehouse records 24/7. D．Selecting goods delivery vehicles. 23．(2.5分)What can we know about the smart system? A．It slows the distribution process. B．It links data across all areas. C．It runs without human control. D．It needs more people to operate. （本题10分）In June’s room stands a bright blue clay vase (花瓶). It is not perfect, showing fine lines from being repaired. It tells a story of two girls’ friendship. Amy and June came across each other while traveling with their fathers. Midway, Amy gave June a bright blue clay vase. It was a small gesture, but a simple friendship between two 4-year-olds began. Years flew by. The girls grew up together, becoming the closest friends. However, people change as they grow up. As Amy’s interests grew, she started to ignore June. Though hurt, June was still there when Amy needed support. But Amy brushed off June’s problems with “Later”. Finally, June couldn’t take it anymore and invited Amy to her house, hoping to figure their problem out. Instead, a terrible quarrel broke out. “What am I to you? A friend or just a convenience?” June cried. To her shock, Amy screamed back. “June, I hate you!” With these words, Amy stormed out and shut the door hard. The blue vase fell from the shelf by the door and crashed into pieces. A ten-year friendship was broken. One year passed. On her fifteenth birthday, June only felt sad. She remembered her happy fourteenth birthday with Amy. With bittersweet tears, she could still remember the image of four-year-old Amy holding out the blue vase to her. Suddenly, the doorbell rang. At the doorstep stood Amy, holding a small package. “I’m so sorry for how I’ve treated you.” She said, handing the package to June. June opened the gift. Inside was the blue clay vase, gently put back together with care. A letter from Amy read: “I’ve fixed the vase, just like I hope to fix our friendship. I promise to be there for you and cherish our friendship.” June and Amy smiled at each other, feeling the quiet strength of a friendship renewed. The vase now stands as a symbol of their lasting friendship. 24．(2.5分)What did June do when Amy began to ignore her? A．She shouted at Amy. B．She developed new interests.

So some researchers propose using an artificial-intelligence algorithm (算法) to hopelessly confuse them, once they break in, by hiding the real deal in a mountain of misleading documents and information. The algorithm, called Word Embedding-based Fake Online Repository Generation Engine (WE-FORGE), creates decoys of patents under development. If hackers were after, say, the recipe for a new drug, they would have to find the relevant needle in a sea of false documents. This could mean checking each recipe in detail — and perhaps investing in a few dead-end ones. “The name of the game here is, ‘Make it harder,’” explains Subrahmanian, its developer, Dartmouth College Cyber Security researcher. “Pain those stealing from you.” Subrahmanian says he tackled this project after reading that companies are unaware of new kinds of cyberattacks for an average of 312 days after they begin. “Hackers have almost a year to decamp with all our documents, patents and intellectual property,” he says. “They have stolen almost everything. It’s not just the crown jewels — it’s the crown jewels, and the jewels of the cleaning lady, and the watch of the secretary!” The system produces convincing traps by searching through a document for key words. For each one it finds, it calculates a list of related concepts and replaces the original term with one chosen at random. The process can produce dozens of documents that contain no patent information but still look credible. Subrahmanian and his team asked computer science and chemistry graduates to evaluate real and false patents from their respective fields. And the humans found the WE-FORGE-created documents highly believable. WE-FORGE might eventually expand its boundary. Subrahmanian thinks this research will attract commercial interest. “I could definitely see an organization investing in this type of product,” he says. “If this creates believable decoys without releasing sensitive details within those traps, then I think you’ve got a huge win there.” 28．(2.5分)What does the underlined word “decoys” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A．Original terms. B．Cyber securities C．Misleading documents. D．Computer operating systems. 29．(2.5分)What can be inferred from Subrahmanian’s words in Paragraph 3? A．Hackers are greedy. B．The network is unreliable. C．The companies are wealthy. D．Intellectual property is diverse. 30．(2.5分)What can we learn from Paragraph 4 about the WE-FORGE-created documents? A．They are reproduced. B．They are randomly organized. C．They are free from human involvement. D．They are likely mistaken for real documents. 31．(2.5分)What does the last paragraph mainly talk about concerning WE-FORGE? A．Its public response. B．Its market potential. C．Its information safety. D．Its planned expansion. （本题10分）People’s views are becoming increasingly polarized, with social bubbles (茧房) deepening existing beliefs and widening opinion gaps. This polarization doesn’t just apply to political opinions; it also touches on factual topics, from climate change to disease prevention. According to a recent study, people use search engines in ways that confirm their existing beliefs, potentially expanding polarization. A simple adjustment to search algorithms (算法), the researchers propose, could help deliver a broader range of perspectives. Online participants were asked to rate their beliefs on six topics, such as nuclear energy and the health effects of caffeine. They then chose search terms to learn more about each topic. The researchers rated the terms’ scope (范围) and found that between 9 and 34 percent were “narrow”. For example, when researching the health effects of caffeine, one participant used “caffeine negative effects” while others used “benefits of caffeine”. These narrow terms tended to match participants’ existing beliefs, and generally fewer than 10 percent did this knowingly. “Search algorithms are designed to give the most relevant answers for whatever we type, which ends up strengthening what we already thought,” says Eugina Leung from Tulane University, who led the study. Similar results appeared when participants used ChatGPT. When researchers randomly assigned participants to view different results, they found that the results affected people’s opinions and even behavior. For example, participants who saw results about “caffeine (咖啡因) health benefits”, rather than “risks”, were more likely to choose a caffeinated drink afterward. Pointing out biases in the search terms had only a small effect on people’s final opinions. However, changing the search algorithm to provide broader results helped reduce the effects of narrow searches. “People are able to bring in different perspectives when they’re exposed to them, which is encouraging,” Leung says. The researchers recommend applying such strategies, possibly as “search broadly” buttons. “This would be really helpful,” Leung says, but whether it will ever happen “is hard to predict.” 32．(2.5分)What phenomenon does the author point out in paragraph 1? A．Search engines create social bubbles. B．Public debates on factual topics become heated. C．Opinions are increasingly divided on political issues. D．Search habits are unknowingly expanding opinion gaps. 33．(2.5分)What is the feature of “narrow” search terms? A．They involve broader ideas. B．They follow social trends. C．They match popular beliefs. D．They strengthen established views. 34．(2.5分)What can we learn from the example given in paragraph 3? A．Caffeine benefits people’s health. B．ChatGPT provides objective information. C．Search results may influence users’ choices. D．Online searches reflect personal interests. 35．(2.5分)What is the researchers’ suggestion about? A．Approaches to broadening search results. B．Choice of new research methods. C．Techniques for identifying search biases. D．Necessity to involve more participants. （本题12.5分）On every smartphone, there is a tracker with location data ready to be shared. 36(2.5分) . And this technology is marketed as convenient, not frightening. What is an acceptable level of online surveillance (监视)? I guessed we all agreed the ideal was none. 37(2.5分) . A quick inquiry on my friends has found those who are, like me, in their 40s and older have relatively little interest in doing so. But my younger friends all seem to be tracking one another at will. They don’t find the idea of monitoring or being monitored in this way upsetting. They say it makes them feel safer. 38(2.5分) . It is just because they are realistic about the privacy that is available. They know if you own a smartphone and don’t want to disable useful things like maps, then your location is already being watched. If app creators, smartphone makers and advertisement companies are already tracking your location, then why not share the information with people you know? If you want to start tracking the people you know, then there are some rules involved. It’s fine to use tracking to confirm a friend has got home safely at night, for example, but don’t use it to surprise them on the street. And think carefully about whom you share data with. 39(2.5分) . Location tracking as a safety measure is appealing. 40(2.5分) . Once you grow comfortable sharing your location with your family and friends, perhaps one day you’ll be happy to share it even with your employer. A．But the truth is how popular it is depends on your age B．They are generally family and close friends, not new friends C．But location sharing has been around for more than a decade D．After all, no one will find it comfortable to be watched all the time E．It is particularly useful for taking care of elderly parents and children F．This is not because they are blind to the importance of online privacy G．Location tracking is so precise that it can locate one person in a crowd 三、完形填空 （本题15分）At the end of the last school year, I told my kids we would have a screen-free summer. They agreed when I explained that we would replace digital devices with extra 41 activities like hiking, swimming, and playing with friends. This wasn’t a(n) 42 decision. I had noticed that my kids were spending too much time on their phones and tablets, and their behavior was negatively 43 . They easily got angry, and fought more with each other. I believe that with some planning, parents can help kids build 44 habits, and screen-free activities can become our 45 choices. Our summer didn’t exactly go according to 46 . A bad flu got the best of me and I spent much of the summer too sick to 47 the house. Even so, my kids took our screen-free summer 48 . They played outside with friends often. When friends were 49 , they found other activities around the house — art projects, Lego creations, and 50 with their toys. They became better friends to each other. Most importantly, there was less 51 and more smiles all around. It was a(n) 52 , though not perfect, summer. Kids are more creative than we often realize. When we 53 screens, they naturally find other ways to have fun. Screen-free activities quickly became a(n) 54 part of our daily life, and even with the start of school, this new habit has remained. The key was to make it a family goal rather than a personal effort, and to point out its positive effects on our health and 55 . 41．(1分)A．group B．cultural C．educational D．outdoor 42．(1分)A．wise B．easy C．sudden D．final 43．(1分)A．judged B．compared C．expected D．influenced 44．(1分)A．healthier B．older C．simpler D．lazier 45．(1分)A．free B．relaxed C．public D．ideal 46．(1分)A．action B．plan C．need D．topic 47．(1分)A．leave B．clean C．share D．visit 48．(1分)A．secretly B．proudly C．kindly D．seriously 49．(1分)A．safe B．busy C．kind D．honest 50．(1分)A．playing B．beginning C．painting D．filling 51．(1分)A．fighting B．waiting C．joking D．competing 52．(1分)A．early B．successful C．careful D．important 53．(1分)A．get through B．deal with C．come across D．take away 54．(1分)A．hard B．usual C．extra D．strange 55．(1分)A．relationships B．hobbies C．lessons D．habits 四、语法填空 （本题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, I had a misunderstanding with my best friend Lily, 56(1.5分) I have known for ten years. She criticised me for 57(1.5分) (not help) her with a project. I felt annoyed and said something thoughtless. Later, I realised that my words had hurt her. I felt a sense of 58(1.5分) (embarrass) and didn’t know how to resolve the conflict. 59(1.5分) (concern) about the present situation, I turned to my mother for help. My mother advised me 60(1.5分) (take) a deep breath and calm down. She said, “If you apologise sincerely, she 61(1.5分) (forgive) you.” I decided to write her a letter instead of texting. In the letter, I admitted my fault and promised to adjust my behaviour. I also told her that our friendship was 62(1.5分) core of my social life. To my relief, she replied the next day. She said that she had overlooked her own mistakes too. We agreed to meet at a café and had a frank talk. In the end, we not only made up but also became closer. From this experience, I learned that communication is 63(1.5分) (essential) than pride in maintaining relationships. I also realised that we should always treat others with kindness. 64(1.5分) (fortunate), whenever I feel angry now, I remind 65(1.5分) (I) to think before speaking. 五、书信写作 66．（本题15分）假定你是李华，你校英文报正在举办以“网络安全”为主题的征文活动。请根据下面的图片，写一篇题为“Protect Ourselves Online”的短文投稿，内容包括： （1）描述图片内容； （2）分析图片所反映的问题； （3）提出你的建议。 注意： （1）写作词数应为80词左右； （2）可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 Protect ourselves online ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 六、书面表达 67．（本题25分）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。 “Just think of it!” cried Lydia. “Our first camp! For five days we’ll be entirely on our own.” Grace, her best friend, nodded quietly, feeling anxious about leaving home. Lydia comforted her warmly, but sighed at the thought of Kerry also joining the camp. The two girls were rivals. Lydia disliked Kerry’s obsession with appearance, while Kerry always thought Lydia was self-centered and bossy. The next day, the girls were in high spirits as they got into the bus heading for the camp. Everyone sang joyfully, with Kerry’s clear voice standing out. After the group had sung all the popular hits, there was a break. Grace turned to Lydia and said, “Sing the song you’ve composed ‘There’s beauty in the sunset’.” “Oh, so she composes as well.” Kerry’s tone was ironic. Lydia’s face reddened with embarrassment because she kept all her writings hidden inside her notebook and cherished it. Soon they reached the campsite. By drawing lots, they were divided into five teams of seven. Much to Lydia’s displeasure, Kerry ended up in Team Three together with her and Grace. Lydia was later elected team leader. The camp was filled with colorful activities. Still, what everyone looked forward to most was the final Culture Evening, when each team had to prepare three original acts. The next morning, Lydia assigned tent-tidying work to Kerry. While cleaning, Kerry accidentally found a piece of paper that had slipped out of Lydia’s notebook, on which was exactly that song. She was deeply touched by the delicate and sincere words. Realizing her mean words before were totally wrong, Kerry felt guilty but didn’t know how to apologize properly to Lydia. Later, the team gathered to discuss acts for the cultural show. A short play and a group dance were settled in no time, but the third act remained undecided. A magic show was rejected as too risky, and a fashion show as too costly — they craved something novel and impressive.

C．Unfollow negative people. 【答案】18．B 19．B 20．A 【原文】W: Today, let’s talk about having a healthier relationship with social media. We all use it, but sometimes it can leave us feeling drained or inadequate. First, remember that what you see online is a highlight reel, not real life. People naturally post their best moments, not their struggles. Comparing your everyday life to someone else’s curated best is a recipe for unhappiness. Second, take control of your feed. You are the curator of your own online experience. If an account constantly makes you feel bad about yourself, unfollow it. Fill your feed with content that inspires, educates, or genuinely entertains you. Follow artists, scientists, hobbyists — people who share your interests, not just influencers selling a lifestyle. Finally, be intentional about your usage. Ask yourself, “Why am I opening this app right now?” Is it out of habit, boredom, or a genuine desire to connect? Set specific times for checking social media, and stick to them. Consider turning off non-essential notifications to reduce the constant pull. The goal is to make social media a tool that serves you, not a distraction that controls you. 二、阅读理解 （本题7.5分）With the rapid development of cross-regional goods trade and online shopping over the past years, modern markets have put forward higher requirements for goods storage and distribution. Traditional warehouse (仓库) work, which mainly depends on human sorting and paper-based record-keeping, always brings about obvious troubles: It wastes plenty of working hours on moving goods across large areas, makes repeated mistakes when checking product information, and can never deal with sudden rises in orders in a timely way. To get rid of these limits, a partitioned (分段) intelligent management system has been widely used in large warehouses, whose integrated design makes every work link closely connected and highly efficient. Operation Area Basic Equipment Core Work Sorting Zone Automatic conveyors & electronic screens Classify goods by delivery destinations; show real-time order data Inspection Zone Portable scanners & data terminals (终端) Check goods quantity; maintain round-the-clock revisions to storage records Delivery Zone Remote-controlled transport vehicles Carry grouped goods to loading areas; follow fixed travel routes All working areas send collected information to a shared central data platform, where managers can watch over the whole operation at any time. Once a new order arrives, the system will first pass on relevant messages to the sorting zone, and the checked goods will be transported to the delivery zone step by step later. This smart system not only greatly cuts down labor costs but also makes the whole distribution process more orderly. It allows warehouses to handle more orders every day and effectively lowers the error rate caused by human work. 21．(2.5分)What are the troubles of traditional warehouses? A．Too much modern equipment. B．Slow online shopping growth. C．Rigid delivery demands. D．Frequent checking errors. 22．(2.5分)What does the checking area focus on? A．Monitoring display screens. B．Tracking goods quality. C．Updating warehouse records 24/7. D．Selecting goods delivery vehicles. 23．(2.5分)What can we know about the smart system? A．It slows the distribution process. B．It links data across all areas. C．It runs without human control. D．It needs more people to operate. 【答案】21．D 22．C 23．B 【导语】文章主要说明了随着跨区域贸易与网购发展，传统仓库弊端凸显。分段智能仓储系统划分作业区，依托设备与数据平台高效作业，降本增效，减少人为差错。 【详解】21．细节理解题。根据第一段“Traditional warehouse (仓库) work, which mainly depends on human sorting and paper-based record-keeping, always brings about obvious troubles: It wastes plenty of working hours on moving goods across large areas, makes repeated mistakes when checking product information, and can never deal with sudden rises in orders in a timely way.(传统的仓库工作主要依赖人工分拣和纸质记录，常常带来明显的问题：耗费大量时间在货物的跨区域搬运上，检查产品信息时容易反复出错，也无法及时应对订单的突然激增)”可知，传统仓库面临的麻烦之一是频繁出现核对错误。 22．细节理解题。根据表格中Inspection Zone对应的“Core Work”一栏中的“maintain round-the-clock revisions to storage records(全天候维护/修改存储记录)”可知，该区域的重点是全天候（24/7）更新仓库记录。 23．细节理解题。根据最后一段“All working areas send collected information to a shared central data platform(所有工作区将收集的信息发送到共享的中央数据平台)”可知，该智能系统将所有工作区域的数据连接在了一起。 （本题10分）In June’s room stands a bright blue clay vase (花瓶). It is not perfect, showing fine lines from being repaired. It tells a story of two girls’ friendship. Amy and June came across each other while traveling with their fathers. Midway, Amy gave June a bright blue clay vase. It was a small gesture, but a simple friendship between two 4-year-olds began. Years flew by. The girls grew up together, becoming the closest friends. However, people change as they grow up. As Amy’s interests grew, she started to ignore June. Though hurt, June was still there when Amy needed support. But Amy brushed off June’s problems with “Later”. Finally, June couldn’t take it anymore and invited Amy to her house, hoping to figure their problem out. Instead, a terrible quarrel broke out. “What am I to you? A friend or just a convenience?” June cried. To her shock, Amy screamed back. “June, I hate you!” With these words, Amy stormed out and shut the door hard. The blue vase fell from the shelf by the door and crashed into pieces. A ten-year friendship was broken. One year passed. On her fifteenth birthday, June only felt sad. She remembered her happy fourteenth birthday with Amy. With bittersweet tears, she could still remember the image of four-year-old Amy holding out the blue vase to her. Suddenly, the doorbell rang. At the doorstep stood Amy, holding a small package. “I’m so sorry for how I’ve treated you.” She said, handing the package to June. June opened the gift. Inside was the blue clay vase, gently put back together with care. A letter from Amy read: “I’ve fixed the vase, just like I hope to fix our friendship. I promise to be there for you and cherish our friendship.” June and Amy smiled at each other, feeling the quiet strength of a friendship renewed. The vase now stands as a symbol of their lasting friendship. 24．(2.5分)What did June do when Amy began to ignore her? A．She shouted at Amy. B．She developed new interests. C．She tried to keep their friendship. D．She started to ignore Amy as well. 25．(2.5分)What caused the blue vase to break? A．It knocked against the shelf. B．June knocked it over by accident. C．It fell as Amy shut the door loudly. D．Amy threw it at June as she was angry. 26．(2.5分)Which word would best describe Amy? A．Reflective. B．Talkative. C．Imaginative. D．Cooperative. 27．(2.5分)What can we learn from this passage? A．Use a gift, and its value shines more brightly. B．Repair a friendship, and it grows stronger. C．Hope is a priceless gift.

So some researchers propose using an artificial-intelligence algorithm (算法) to hopelessly confuse them, once they break in, by hiding the real deal in a mountain of misleading documents and information. The algorithm, called Word Embedding-based Fake Online Repository Generation Engine (WE-FORGE), creates decoys of patents under development. If hackers were after, say, the recipe for a new drug, they would have to find the relevant needle in a sea of false documents. This could mean checking each recipe in detail — and perhaps investing in a few dead-end ones. “The name of the game here is, ‘Make it harder,’” explains Subrahmanian, its developer, Dartmouth College Cyber Security researcher. “Pain those stealing from you.” Subrahmanian says he tackled this project after reading that companies are unaware of new kinds of cyberattacks for an average of 312 days after they begin. “Hackers have almost a year to decamp with all our documents, patents and intellectual property,” he says. “They have stolen almost everything. It’s not just the crown jewels — it’s the crown jewels, and the jewels of the cleaning lady, and the watch of the secretary!” The system produces convincing traps by searching through a document for key words. For each one it finds, it calculates a list of related concepts and replaces the original term with one chosen at random. The process can produce dozens of documents that contain no patent information but still look credible. Subrahmanian and his team asked computer science and chemistry graduates to evaluate real and false patents from their respective fields. And the humans found the WE-FORGE-created documents highly believable. WE-FORGE might eventually expand its boundary. Subrahmanian thinks this research will attract commercial interest. “I could definitely see an organization investing in this type of product,” he says. “If this creates believable decoys without releasing sensitive details within those traps, then I think you’ve got a huge win there.” 28．(2.5分)What does the underlined word “decoys” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A．Original terms. B．Cyber securities C．Misleading documents. D．Computer operating systems. 29．(2.5分)What can be inferred from Subrahmanian’s words in Paragraph 3? A．Hackers are greedy. B．The network is unreliable. C．The companies are wealthy. D．Intellectual property is diverse. 30．(2.5分)What can we learn from Paragraph 4 about the WE-FORGE-created documents? A．They are reproduced. B．They are randomly organized. C．They are free from human involvement. D．They are likely mistaken for real documents. 31．(2.5分)What does the last paragraph mainly talk about concerning WE-FORGE? A．Its public response. B．Its market potential. C．Its information safety. D．Its planned expansion. 【答案】28．C 29．A 30．D 31．B 【导语】本文介绍了一款名为WE-FORGE的人工智能算法，该算法可生成大量逼真的虚假文件迷惑黑客，从而保护企业机密知识产权，介绍了其工作原理、实际效果以及潜在的商业价值。 【详解】28．词句猜测题。根据第一段“So some researchers propose using an artificial-intelligence algorithm (算法) to hopelessly confuse them, once they break in, by hiding the real deal in a mountain of misleading documents and information. (因此，一些研究人员提出可以利用一种人工智能算法来对他们进行“彻底的迷惑”。一旦他们入侵系统，这种算法会将真正的信息隐藏在大量误导性的文件和信息之中，从而让他们难以找到真实的内容。)”以及第二段“in a sea of false documents (海量虚假文件)”可知，该算法生成的decoys是用于迷惑黑客的误导性虚假文件。 29．推理判断题。根据第三段“They have stolen almost everything. It’s not just the crown jewels — it’s the crown jewels, and the jewels of the cleaning lady, and the watch of the secretary! (他们（指黑客）几乎偷走了所有东西。这可不只是王室的珍宝——还有清洁女工的珠宝、秘书的手表。)”可知，这句话说明黑客几乎偷走了所有东西，不仅是核心机密，连普通资料也不放过，体现出黑客极其贪婪的特点。 30．细节理解题。根据第四段“And the humans found the WE-FORGE-created documents highly believable (研究人员发现，这些由WE伪造机构制作的文件极具可信度。)”可知，这些伪造文件足以以假乱真，容易被误认为是真实文件。 31．主旨大意题。根据最后一段“this research will attract commercial interest (这项研究将引起商业兴趣)”和“I could definitely see an organization investing in this type of product (我完全能理解一个组织为何会投资这类产品。)”可知，本段主要讲述WE-FORGE的商业价值与市场潜力。 （本题10分）People’s views are becoming increasingly polarized, with social bubbles (茧房) deepening existing beliefs and widening opinion gaps. This polarization doesn’t just apply to political opinions; it also touches on factual topics, from climate change to disease prevention. According to a recent study, people use search engines in ways that confirm their existing beliefs, potentially expanding polarization. A simple adjustment to search algorithms (算法), the researchers propose, could help deliver a broader range of perspectives. Online participants were asked to rate their beliefs on six topics, such as nuclear energy and the health effects of caffeine. They then chose search terms to learn more about each topic. The researchers rated the terms’ scope (范围) and found that between 9 and 34 percent were “narrow”. For example, when researching the health effects of caffeine, one participant used “caffeine negative effects” while others used “benefits of caffeine”. These narrow terms tended to match participants’ existing beliefs, and generally fewer than 10 percent did this knowingly. “Search algorithms are designed to give the most relevant answers for whatever we type, which ends up strengthening what we already thought,” says Eugina Leung from Tulane University, who led the study. Similar results appeared when participants used ChatGPT. When researchers randomly assigned participants to view different results, they found that the results affected people’s opinions and even behavior. For example, participants who saw results about “caffeine (咖啡因) health benefits”, rather than “risks”, were more likely to choose a caffeinated drink afterward. Pointing out biases in the search terms had only a small effect on people’s final opinions. However, changing the search algorithm to provide broader results helped reduce the effects of narrow searches. “People are able to bring in different perspectives when they’re exposed to them, which is encouraging,” Leung says. The researchers recommend applying such strategies, possibly as “search broadly” buttons. “This would be really helpful,” Leung says, but whether it will ever happen “is hard to predict.” 32．(2.5分)What phenomenon does the author point out in paragraph 1? A．Search engines create social bubbles. B．Public debates on factual topics become heated. C．Opinions are increasingly divided on political issues. D．Search habits are unknowingly expanding opinion gaps. 33．(2.5分)What is the feature of “narrow” search terms? A．They involve broader ideas. B．They follow social trends. C．They match popular beliefs. D．They strengthen established views. 34．(2.5分)What can we learn from the example given in paragraph 3? A．Caffeine benefits people’s health. B．ChatGPT provides objective information. C．Search results may influence users’ choices. D．Online searches reflect personal interests. 35．(2.5分)What is the researchers’ suggestion about? A．Approaches to broadening search results. B．Choice of new research methods. C．Techniques for identifying search biases. D．Necessity to involve more participants. 【答案】32．D 33．D 34．C 35．A 【导语】本文针对观点极化现象日益加剧的现状，介绍了一项最新研究发现，人们现有的搜索习惯会巩固已有认知，进而扩大观点分歧，调整搜索算法、提供更多元的搜索结果是缓解这一问题的有效方向。 【详解】32．细节理解题。根据第一段“According to a recent study, people use search engines in ways that confirm their existing beliefs, potentially expanding polarization. (根据最近一项研究，人们使用搜索引擎的方式会巩固他们已有的信念，这有可能会扩大观点分化)”可知，作者在第一段指出人们的搜索习惯会在不知不觉中扩大不同观点之间的分歧。 33．细节理解题。根据第二段“The researchers rated the terms’ scope (范围) and found that between 9 and 34 percent were “narrow”. For example, when researching the health effects of caffeine, one participant used “caffeine negative effects” while others used “benefits of caffeine”. These narrow terms tended to match participants’ existing beliefs, and generally fewer than 10 percent did this knowingly.(研究人员对这些搜索词的范围进行了评分，发现9%到34%的范围“狭窄”。例如，在研究咖啡因对健康的影响时，一名参与者使用了“咖啡因的负面影响”，而另一名参与者则使用了“咖啡因的益处”。这些狭窄的搜索词往往与参与者现有的信念相匹配，通常只有不到10%的人是故意这样做的。)”和第三段“Search algorithms are designed to give the most relevant answers for whatever we type, which ends up strengthening what we already thought(搜索算法的设计目的是无论我们输入什么内容，它都会给出最相关的结果，这最终会巩固我们已经固有的想法)”可知，这些狭窄的搜索关键词往往符合参与者已有的信念，会巩固人们已经形成的固有观点。 34．推理判断题。根据第三段“When researchers randomly assigned participants to view different results, they found that the results affected people’s opinions and even behavior. For example, participants who saw results about “caffeine (咖啡因) health benefits”, rather than “risks”, were more likely to choose a caffeinated drink afterward.(当研究人员随机安排参与者查看不同的搜索结果时，他们发现结果会影响人们的观点甚至行为。例如，看到“咖啡因对健康有益”而非“咖啡因风险”相关结果的参与者，之后更有可能选择含咖啡因的饮品)”可知，看到“咖啡因健康益处”结果的参与者之后更可能选择含咖啡因的饮料,这个例子是为了证明前面的观点，说明搜索结果可能会影响用户的选择。 35．细节理解题。根据最后一段“However, changing the search algorithm to provide broader results helped reduce the effects of narrow searches...The researchers recommend applying such strategies, possibly as “search broadly” buttons.(然而，改变搜索算法来提供更广泛的结果有助于降低窄搜索的影响……研究人员建议应用这类策略，可能可以做成“广泛搜索”按钮的形式）”可知，研究人员的建议围绕拓宽搜索结果的方法展开。 （本题12.5分）On every smartphone, there is a tracker with location data ready to be shared. 36(2.5分) . And this technology is marketed as convenient, not frightening. What is an acceptable level of online surveillance (监视)? I guessed we all agreed the ideal was none. 37(2.5分) . A quick inquiry on my friends has found those who are, like me, in their 40s and older have relatively little interest in doing so. But my younger friends all seem to be tracking one another at will. They don’t find the idea of monitoring or being monitored in this way upsetting. They say it makes them feel safer. 38(2.5分) . It is just because they are realistic about the privacy that is available. They know if you own a smartphone and don’t want to disable useful things like maps, then your location is already being watched. If app creators, smartphone makers and advertisement companies are already tracking your location, then why not share the information with people you know? If you want to start tracking the people you know, then there are some rules involved. It’s fine to use tracking to confirm a friend has got home safely at night, for example, but don’t use it to surprise them on the street. And think carefully about whom you share data with. 39(2.5分) . Location tracking as a safety measure is appealing. 40(2.5分) . Once you grow comfortable sharing your location with your family and friends, perhaps one day you’ll be happy to share it even with your employer.

I guessed we all agreed the ideal was none.(可接受的在线监控程度是多少呢？我猜我们都认同理想状态是零监控)”以及后文“A quick inquiry on my friends has found those who are, like me, in their 40s and older have relatively little interest in doing so. But my younger friends all seem to be tracking one another at will.(对我的朋友们进行的一个快速调查发现，像我这样40多岁及以上的人对此相对不太感兴趣。但我年轻一些的朋友似乎都随意地相互追踪位置)”表明不同年龄段对位置追踪的态度不同。A选项“But the truth is how popular it is depends on your age(但事实是它的受欢迎程度取决于你的年龄)”起到承上启下的作用。 38．后文“It is just because they are realistic about the privacy that is available. They know if you own a smartphone and don’t want to disable useful things like maps, then your location is already being watched.(这只是因为他们对现有的隐私状况很现实。他们知道如果你拥有一部智能手机，又不想禁用像地图这样有用的功能，那么你的位置已经在被监视了)”解释了年轻朋友接受位置共享的原因。F选项“This is not because they are blind to the importance of online privacy(这并不是因为他们对在线隐私的重要性视而不见)”中的“This”指代年轻朋友接受位置共享这一现象，“not because...blind to the importance of online privacy”与后文“just because they are realistic about the privacy”形成对应，说明年轻朋友接受位置共享并非不重视隐私，而是基于对现实隐私状况的认识。 39．前文“And think carefully about whom you share data with.(并且要仔细考虑你与谁分享数据)”指出分享数据的对象很重要，B选项“They are generally family and close friends, not new friends (他们通常是家人和亲密的朋友，而不是新朋友)”对与谁分享数据给出具体建议。 40．根据前文“Location tracking as a safety measure is appealing.(位置追踪作为一种安全措施很有吸引力)”强调位置追踪作为安全措施的吸引力，后文“Once you grow comfortable sharing your location with your family and friends, perhaps one day you’ll be happy to share it even with your employer.(一旦你习惯了与家人和朋友分享你的位置，也许有一天你甚至会乐意与你的雇主分享)”进一步阐述位置追踪在不同人际关系中的应用。E选项“It is particularly useful for taking care of elderly parents and children(它对于照顾年迈的父母和孩子特别有用)”具体说明了位置追踪在照顾特定人群方面作为安全措施的实用性，与前后文关于位置追踪作为安全措施的内容相呼应。 三、完形填空 （本题15分）At the end of the last school year, I told my kids we would have a screen-free summer. They agreed when I explained that we would replace digital devices with extra 41 activities like hiking, swimming, and playing with friends. This wasn’t a(n) 42 decision. I had noticed that my kids were spending too much time on their phones and tablets, and their behavior was negatively 43 . They easily got angry, and fought more with each other. I believe that with some planning, parents can help kids build 44 habits, and screen-free activities can become our 45 choices. Our summer didn’t exactly go according to 46 . A bad flu got the best of me and I spent much of the summer too sick to 47 the house. Even so, my kids took our screen-free summer 48 . They played outside with friends often. When friends were 49 , they found other activities around the house — art projects, Lego creations, and 50 with their toys. They became better friends to each other. Most importantly, there was less 51 and more smiles all around. It was a(n) 52 , though not perfect, summer. Kids are more creative than we often realize. When we 53 screens, they naturally find other ways to have fun. Screen-free activities quickly became a(n) 54 part of our daily life, and even with the start of school, this new habit has remained. The key was to make it a family goal rather than a personal effort, and to point out its positive effects on our health and 55 . 41．(1分)A．group B．cultural C．educational D．outdoor 42．(1分)A．wise B．easy C．sudden D．final 43．(1分)A．judged B．compared C．expected D．influenced 44．(1分)A．healthier B．older C．simpler D．lazier 45．(1分)A．free B．relaxed C．public D．ideal 46．(1分)A．action B．plan C．need D．topic 47．(1分)A．leave B．clean C．share D．visit 48．(1分)A．secretly B．proudly C．kindly D．seriously 49．(1分)A．safe B．busy C．kind D．honest 50．(1分)A．playing B．beginning C．painting D．filling 51．(1分)A．fighting B．waiting C．joking D．competing 52．(1分)A．early B．successful C．careful D．important 53．(1分)A．get through B．deal with C．come across D．take away 54．(1分)A．hard B．usual C．extra D．strange 55．(1分)A．relationships B．hobbies C．lessons D．habits 【答案】 41．D 42．C 43．D 44．A 45．D 46．B 47．A 48．D 49．B 50．A 51．A 52．B 53．D 54．B 55．A 【导语】本文讲述了作者为改变孩子过度依赖电子设备的不良状态，带领家人践行“无屏幕夏日”计划；即便途中作者因病打乱原有安排，孩子们依然坚持计划，最终成功养成了远离电子屏幕的良好生活习惯。 【详解】41．考查形容词。句意：当我解释说我们会用远足、游泳以及和朋友玩耍这类额外的户外活动取代电子设备时，他们同意了。A. group组，团体；B. cultural文化的；C. educational有教育意义的；D. outdoor户外的。根据下文“like hiking, swimming, and playing with friends”和第四段中“They played outside with friends often.”可知，远足、游泳、在外面和朋友玩耍都属于户外活动。 42．考查形容词。句意：这不是一个突然的决定。A. wise明智的；B. easy容易的；C. sudden突然的；D. final最终的。根据下文“I had noticed that my kids were spending too much time on their phones and tablets”可知，作者早就发现孩子过度使用电子设备的问题，是经过观察才做出的决定，因此不是突然的决定。 43．考查动词。句意：我注意到我的孩子花太多时间在手机和平板上，他们的行为受到了消极影响。A. judged判断；B. compared比较；C. expected期待；D. influenced影响。根据下文“They easily got angry, and fought more with each other.”可知，孩子的行为变差，是受到了电子设备的消极影响。 44．考查形容词。句意：我相信做好一些计划，父母可以帮助孩子养成更健康的习惯，无屏幕活动可以成为我们理想的选择。A. healthier更健康的；B. older更老的；C. simpler更简单的；D. lazier更懒的。根据上文“I had noticed that my kids were spending too much time on their phones and tablets, and their behavior was negatively ____.

She criticised me for 57(1.5分) (not help) her with a project. I felt annoyed and said something thoughtless. Later, I realised that my words had hurt her. I felt a sense of 58(1.5分) (embarrass) and didn’t know how to resolve the conflict. 59(1.5分) (concern) about the present situation, I turned to my mother for help. My mother advised me 60(1.5分) (take) a deep breath and calm down. She said, “If you apologise sincerely, she 61(1.5分) (forgive) you.” I decided to write her a letter instead of texting. In the letter, I admitted my fault and promised to adjust my behaviour. I also told her that our friendship was 62(1.5分) core of my social life. To my relief, she replied the next day. She said that she had overlooked her own mistakes too. We agreed to meet at a café and had a frank talk. In the end, we not only made up but also became closer. From this experience, I learned that communication is 63(1.5分) (essential) than pride in maintaining relationships. I also realised that we should always treat others with kindness. 64(1.5分) (fortunate), whenever I feel angry now, I remind 65(1.5分) (I) to think before speaking. 【答案】 56．who 57．not helping 58．embarrassment 59．Concerned 60．to take 61．will forgive 62．the 63．more essential 64．Fortunately 65．myself 【导语】主要讲述作者与十年好友产生误会、化解矛盾的经历，并从中领悟到维系人际关系的道理。 【详解】56．考查定语从句。句意：上个月，我和我认识十年的最好的朋友莉莉产生了误会。此处为非限制性定语从句，先行词Lily指人，关系词在从句中作宾语，所以用关系代词who。故填who。 57．考查非谓语动词。句意：她因为我没有帮她完成一个项目而批评我。介词for后接动名词作宾语，否定形式在动名词前加not，所以用not helping。故填not helping。 58．考查名词。句意：我感到一阵尴尬，不知道如何化解这场矛盾。介词of后接名词作宾语，embarrass对应的名词形式为embarrassment，意为“尴尬”。 59．考查非谓语动词。句意：担心当下的局面，我向妈妈寻求帮助。此处为非谓语动词作状语，根据固定搭配be concerned about可知，concern与逻辑主语I之间为被动关系，所以此处使用过去分词concerned，置于句首首字母大写。 60．考查非谓语动词。句意：妈妈建议我深呼吸、冷静下来。此处为固定搭配advise sb. to do sth.，意为“建议某人做某事”，所以用动词不定式to take作宾补。 61．考查动词时态。句意：她说：“如果你真诚道歉，她将会原谅你。”此处为条件状语从句遵循主将从现，从句为一般现在时，主句用一般将来时，所以谓语动词为will forgive。 62．考查冠词。句意：我也告诉她，我们的友谊是我社交生活的核心。固定搭配 the core of...意为“……的核心”。 63．考查形容词比较级。句意：通过这次经历，我明白了在维系人际关系方面，沟通比骄傲更重要。根据空后than可知，此处用形容词比较级，essential的比较级为more essential。 64．考查副词。句意：幸运的是，现在每当我感到生气时，我都会提醒自己三思而后言。此处修饰整个句子，需要副词作状语，fortunate对应的副词fortunately，意为“幸运的是”，置于句首首字母大写。 65．考查反身代词。句意：幸运的是，现在每当我感到生气时，我都会提醒自己三思而后言。此处指代主语I本身，需要反身代词作宾语，所以用myself。 五、书信写作 66．（本题15分）假定你是李华，你校英文报正在举办以“网络安全”为主题的征文活动。请根据下面的图片，写一篇题为“Protect Ourselves Online”的短文投稿，内容包括： （1）描述图片内容； （2）分析图片所反映的问题； （3）提出你的建议。 注意： （1）写作词数应为80词左右； （2）可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 Protect ourselves online ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文： Protect Ourselves Online The picture vividly depicts a user surrounded by tangled online information, highlighting hidden risks in the digital world. It reveals a common phenomenon: people, especially young users, are easily exposed to online fraud, privacy leaks and misleading content. Such risks arise from low security awareness and improper online behavior. Many users lack basic judgment and unconsciously fall into traps, which may cause property losses or personal information disclosure. To address this issue, we should raise self-protection awareness. We must avoid suspicious links, protect personal data strictly and learn relevant security knowledge. Only by staying alert can we use the Internet safely and effectively. 【导语】本篇书面表达要求考生以李华的身份以“Protect Ourselves Online”为题写一篇短文向校英文报投稿，描述图片内容、分析网络安全隐患问题并给出合理防护建议。 【详解】1. 词汇积累 凸显：highlight → underline 泄露：leak → disclosure 由……引起：arise from → result from 提高：raise → enhance 2. 句式拓展 同义句转换 原句：Such risks arise from low security awareness and improper online behavior. 拓展句：Such risks arise from not only low security awareness but also improper online behavior. 【点睛】【高分句型1】Many users lack basic judgment and unconsciously fall into traps, which may cause property losses or personal information disclosure. (运用了关系代词which引导非限制性定语从句) 【高分句型2】Only by staying alert can we use the Internet safely and effectively. (运用了“only+状语”置于句首引起的部分倒装句式) 六、书面表达 67．（本题25分）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。 “Just think of it!” cried Lydia. “Our first camp! For five days we’ll be entirely on our own.” Grace, her best friend, nodded quietly, feeling anxious about leaving home. Lydia comforted her warmly, but sighed at the thought of Kerry also joining the camp. The two girls were rivals. Lydia disliked Kerry’s obsession with appearance, while Kerry always thought Lydia was self-centered and bossy. The next day, the girls were in high spirits as they got into the bus heading for the camp. Everyone sang joyfully, with Kerry’s clear voice standing out. After the group had sung all the popular hits, there was a break. Grace turned to Lydia and said, “Sing the song you’ve composed ‘There’s beauty in the sunset’.” “Oh, so she composes as well.” Kerry’s tone was ironic. Lydia’s face reddened with embarrassment because she kept all her writings hidden inside her notebook and cherished it. Soon they reached the campsite. By drawing lots, they were divided into five teams of seven. Much to Lydia’s displeasure, Kerry ended up in Team Three together with her and Grace. Lydia was later elected team leader. The camp was filled with colorful activities. Still, what everyone looked forward to most was the final Culture Evening, when each team had to prepare three original acts. The next morning, Lydia assigned tent-tidying work to Kerry. While cleaning, Kerry accidentally found a piece of paper that had slipped out of Lydia’s notebook, on which was exactly that song. She was deeply touched by the delicate and sincere words. Realizing her mean words before were totally wrong, Kerry felt guilty but didn’t know how to apologize properly to Lydia. Later, the team gathered to discuss acts for the cultural show. A short play and a group dance were settled in no time, but the third act remained undecided. A magic show was rejected as too risky, and a fashion show as too costly — they craved something novel and impressive. All of them frowned and racked their brains, failing to figure it out. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右。 （2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Just then, Grace looked from Lydia to Kerry and got a perfect plan.__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On the final evening, Kerry came on stage with her guitar.__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Just then, Grace looked from Lydia to Kerry, and got a perfect plan. She suggested combining Lydia’s song with Kerry’s voice. Lydia hesitated, unwilling to share her secret. Kerry admitted she had read the song by accident and found it beautiful. She felt ashamed of her mocking remarks and apologized sincerely. Seeing her regret, Lydia finally agreed to let Kerry sing it. Kerry would sing, Lydia would read the opening lines, and Grace would lead the chorus. As they rehearsed, their voices blended beautifully. Kerry praised Lydia’s lyrics, and Lydia admired Kerry’s voice. The coldness between them gradually melted. On the final evening, Kerry came on stage with her guitar. She played the first chord, and Lydia, standing beside her, read the opening lines. Then Kerry began to sing. Her clear voice carried the tender words across the silent hall, while Grace and the team joined them gently. Lydia listened with tears in her eyes. When the song ended, thunderous applause filled the room. Kerry whispered that the song deserved this moment. Lydia smiled, thanking her for making it alive. They hugged, and the old rivalry between them was gone. The camp ended with music, laughter, and a precious friendship. 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Lydia和好友Grace参加露营，却与对手Kerry分在同一队；Kerry偶然读到Lydia珍藏的原创歌词深受触动并真诚道歉，最终两人在文化晚会上合作表演Lydia的歌曲，化解昔日竞争、建立真正友谊的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ① 由第一段首句可知，本段应描写Grace提出将Lydia创作的歌曲与Kerry的歌唱才能结合的方案；Kerry坦诚自己曾无意看到歌词并被打动，为之前的讽刺道歉，Lydia被打动并接受合作，团队一起排练，两人隔阂逐渐消融。 ② 由第二段首句可知，本段应描写晚会现场Kerry弹吉他演唱、Lydia配合朗诵，表演大获成功，两人相拥和解，旧日竞争化为珍贵友谊，呼应主题。 2. 续写线索：Grace想到合作计划 —— Kerry真诚道歉 —— Lydia释怀接受 —— 共同排练磨合 ——晚会登台演出 —— 观众热烈反响 —— 两人拥抱和解、收获友谊 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①混合/融合：blend/integrate/mix ②值得：deserve/be worthy of 情绪类 ①真诚地道歉：apologize sincerely / make an apology genuinely ②赞扬：praise/speak highly of 【点睛】【高分句型1】Seeing her regret, Lydia finally agreed to let Kerry sing it.(运用了现在分词短语作状语) 【高分句型2】When the song ended, thunderous applause filled the room.(运用了when引导的时间状语从句) 2 / 2 2 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
