【答案】18.A 19.B 20.C
【原文】Good morning everyone. I am delighted to be here today. As some of you may know, I created an APP called Replika. It is powered by artificial intelligence and is always there to chat and keep you company like a friend designed just for you. These days, loneliness is becoming a big issue, and I believe AI friends could really make a difference. You can customize your AI friend’s appearance and choose the kind of relationship you want. Whether as a friend, a romantic partner or even a teacher, from this experience I’ve truly seen the potential of this technology. On one hand, an AI friend listens, gives advice and offers emotional support, making the experience more personal and comforting. However, if it’s not developed properly, there is a downside. People might become so attached to their AI friends that they withdraw from real life interactions. That’s why I believe we shouldn’t measure the success of AI by clicks or screen time. Instead, we should focus on its impact on people’s emotions. Does it make them feel happier? Does it help them feel more connected? If we build AI with human happiness in mind, we could make the world a better place.

(本题10分)Being stuck in miles of stopped traffic is not a relaxing way to start or finish a holiday. And as we move slowly along the road, many of us will fantasize a future free of traffic jams.
As a mathematician and motorist, I view traffic as a complex system, consisting of many interacting agents, including cars, trucks, cyclists and walkers. Sometimes these agents interact in a free-flowing way and at other times they simply come to a stop. All situations can be examined — and hopefully improved — using mathematical modeling. For instance, mathematical models tell us that if drivers kept within the variable speed limits on a motorway, traffic would flow consistently at, say, 50 mph.
However, we tend to drive more aggressively (激进地), speeding up as soon as the opportunity arises — and being forced to slow down moments later. The result is greater fuel consumption and a longer overall journey time. But could this change if our roads were taken over by driverless cars?
In theory, driverless cars will typically drive within the speed limits, have faster reaction times allowing them to drive closer together and will behave less randomly than humans. Choosing the best route, accounting for barriers and traffic volume (量), driverless cars will behave in a more rational (理性的) way, as they can communicate with other cars and quickly change their route or driving behavior.
Of course, even integrating driverless cars into the best modeling, we could still get to the point where there are simply too many cars on the road, and traffic jams can occur. Yet there is still potential for self-driving cars to help. Some car makers expect that eventually we will stop viewing cars as possessions and instead simply treat them as a transport service. Again, by applying mathematical modeling, we could make this shared autonomous vehicle service operate most efficiently, reducing the overall number of cars on the road.
24.(2.5分)What does the author think of traffic flow?
A.It follows strict patterns. B.It is affected by many factors.
C.It involves mathematical modeling. D.It depends heavily on drivers’ skills.
25.(2.5分)What is the major reason behind traffic problems?
A.Poor traffic planning. B.Terrible road conditions.
C.Random driving behavior. D.Unreasonable speed limits.
26.(2.5分)What does paragraph 4 mainly tell us about driverless cars?
A.How they reduce fuel use. B.How they could avoid barriers.
C.How they would improve traffic. D.How they may ensure road safety.
27.(2.5分)What might be the most striking feature of future transportation?
A.Fewer private cars. B.More urban motorways.
C.More efficient traffic rules. D.More intelligent navigation.
【答案】24.B 25.C 26.C 27.A
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章从数学家和司机的双重视角分析交通拥堵问题,探讨人类驾驶的随机性如何加剧交通问题,以及自动驾驶汽车如何通过更理性的行为和共享出行服务,利用数学模型优化交通,缓解拥堵。
【详解】24.细节理解题。根据第二段中“I view traffic as a complex system, consisting of many interacting agents, including cars, trucks, cyclists and walkers. (我将交通视为一个复杂的系统,由许多相互作用的因素组成,包括汽车、卡车、自行车手和行人)”可知,作者认为交通流受到许多因素的影响。故选B项。
25.细节理解题。根据第三段中“However, we tend to drive more aggressively (激进地), speeding up as soon as the opportunity arises — and being forced to slow down moments later. The result is greater fuel consumption and a longer overall journey time. (然而,我们倾向于更激进地驾驶,一有机会就加速——然后很快就被迫减速。结果是更大的燃料消耗和更长的总行程时间)”可知,交通问题的主要原因在于随机的驾驶行为。故选C项。
26.主旨大意题。根据第四段中“Choosing the best route, accounting for barriers and traffic volume (量), driverless cars will behave in a more rational (理性的) way, as they can communicate with other cars and quickly change their route or driving behavior. (选择最佳路线,考虑到障碍物和交通量,无人驾驶汽车将表现得更加理性,因为它们可以与其他汽车通信,并迅速改变路线或驾驶行为)”可知,本段主要讲述了自动驾驶汽车如何通过更理性的行为来改善交通。故选C项。
27.推理判断题。根据第五段中“Some car makers expect that eventually we will stop viewing cars as possessions and instead simply treat them as a transport service. Again, by applying mathematical modeling, we could make this shared autonomous vehicle service operate most efficiently, reducing the overall number of cars on the road. (一些汽车制造商预计,最终我们将不再把汽车视为财产,而只是将其作为一种交通服务。同样,通过应用数学模型,我们可以使这种共享自动驾驶汽车服务最高效地运行,从而减少道路上的汽车总数)”可推断,未来我们将不再把汽车视为财产,且共享自动驾驶汽车服务将最高效地运行,所以私家车数量会减少。故选A项。
(本题10分)The metaverse (元宇宙) , a virtual world that combines virtual reality (VR) , augmented reality (AR) and the Internet, has become a hot topic in recent years. It is not just a new form of entertainment but a new space for people to work, study, communicate and live, which is expected to change the way we live and interact with the world.
The metaverse brings many new possibilities to people’s lives. In terms of work, people can work in a virtual office with colleagues from all over the world without going out, which saves time and travel costs. For example, a designer in China can cooperate with a team in the United States in a virtual studio, sharing ideas and modifying designs in real time. In education, the metaverse can create immersive learning environments. Students can “visit” ancient civilizations, dive into the deep sea or even travel to outer space through VR equipment, making learning more interesting and vivid. In daily life, people can make friends, attend virtual concerts and try on virtual clothes in the metaverse, enriching their spiritual life.
However, the development of the metaverse still faces many obstacles. First, the technology of the metaverse is not yet mature. VR and AR equipment is relatively expensive, and the virtual experience is not yet perfect, which limits the number of people who can access it. Second, there are hidden risks in data security and privacy protection. In the metaverse, people need to provide a lot of personal information, which may be stolen or misused by criminals. Third, the metaverse may lead to some social problems, such as people being addicted to the virtual world and ignoring real-life interactions.
To promote the healthy development of the metaverse, governments, enterprises and individuals need to work together. Governments should formulate relevant laws and regulations to standardize the development of the metaverse and protect users’ data security and privacy. Enterprises should increase investment in technology research and development to improve the virtual experience and reduce the cost of equipment. Individuals should use the metaverse rationally, balance the time spent in the virtual world and real life. With joint efforts, the metaverse will better serve people and bring more convenience and happiness to our lives.
28.(2.5分)What is the metaverse according to the passage?
A.A new form of online entertainment only.
B.A virtual world combining VR, AR and the Internet.
C.A new type of mobile phone application.
D.A real-world space for people to work and study.
29.(2.5分)Which of the following is NOT a possibility brought by the metaverse?
A.Working in a virtual office with global colleagues.
B.Having immersive learning experiences.
C.Ignoring real-life interactions completely.
D.Attending virtual concerts in daily life.
30.(2.5分)What does the underlined word “obstacles” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A.Opportunities.
B.Advantages.
C.Difficulties and challenges.
D.Solutions.
31.(2.5分)What is the author’s attitude towards the development of the metaverse?
A.Negative.
B.Optimistic.
C.Doubtful.
D.Neutral.
【答案】28.B 29.C 30.C 31.B
【导语】本文主要介绍了元宇宙带来的可能性、面临的发展障碍以及促进其健康发展的建议。
【详解】28.细节理解题。根据文章第一段“The metaverse (元宇宙) , a virtual world that combines virtual reality (VR) , augmented reality (AR) and the Internet, has become a hot topic in recent years. It is not just a new form of entertainment but a new space for people to work, study, communicate and live, which is expected to change the way we live and interact with the world.(元宇宙是一个结合了虚拟现实(VR)、增强现实(AR)和互联网的虚拟世界,近年来已成为热门话题。它不仅是一种新的娱乐形式,更是一个供人们工作、学习、交流和生活的新空间,有望改变我们的生活方式以及与世界互动的方式。)”可知,元宇宙是一个结合了虚拟现实、增强现实和互联网的虚拟世界。
29.细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The metaverse brings many new possibilities to people’s lives. In terms of work, people can work in a virtual office with colleagues from all over the world without going out, which saves time and travel costs. For example, a designer in China can cooperate with a team in the United States in a virtual studio, sharing ideas and modifying designs in real time. In education, the metaverse can create immersive learning environments. Students can “visit” ancient civilizations, dive into the deep sea or even travel to outer space through VR equipment, making learning more interesting and vivid. In daily life, people can make friends, attend virtual concerts and try on virtual clothes in the metaverse, enriching their spiritual life.(元宇宙为人们的生活带来了许多新的可能性。在工作方面,人们足不出户就可以与来自世界各地的同事在虚拟办公室中工作,节省了时间和差旅成本。例如,中国的一位设计师可以在虚拟工作室中与美国的一个团队合作,实时分享想法并修改设计。在教育方面,元宇宙可以创造沉浸式学习环境。学生可以通过VR设备“参观”古代文明、潜入深海甚至前往外太空,让学习变得更加有趣和生动。在日常生活中,人们可以在元宇宙中交友、参加虚拟音乐会、试穿虚拟服装,丰富精神生活。)”可知,元宇宙带来的可能性包括虚拟办公、沉浸式学习、参加虚拟音乐会,不包括完全忽视现实互动。
30.词义猜测题。根据文章划线词后文的内容“First, the technology of the metaverse is not yet mature. VR and AR equipment is relatively expensive, and the virtual experience is not yet perfect, which limits the number of people who can access it. Second, there are hidden risks in data security and privacy protection. In the metaverse, people need to provide a lot of personal information, which may be stolen or misused by criminals. Third, the metaverse may lead to some social problems, such as people being addicted to the virtual world and ignoring real-life interactions.(首先,元宇宙的技术尚不成熟。VR和AR设备相对昂贵,虚拟体验还不够完美,这限制了能够接触它的人数。其次,数据安全和隐私保护存在隐患。在元宇宙中,人们需要提供大量个人信息,这些信息可能被犯罪分子窃取或滥用。第三,元宇宙可能导致一些社会问题,例如人们沉迷于虚拟世界而忽视了现实生活中的互动。)”可知,空后列举了元宇宙技术的不成熟、存在的隐私风险和社会问题,这些都是其发展过程中遇到的困难,由此推测“obstacles”与C项“Difficulties and challenges.(困难和挑战)”意思相近,即元宇宙的发展仍面临许多困难。
31.推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“With joint efforts, the metaverse will better serve people and bring more convenience and happiness to our lives.(在共同努力下,元宇宙将更好地服务人类,为我们的生活带来更多便利和幸福。)”可知,作者认为在各方努力下,元宇宙将更好地服务于人类,由此可推断作者对元宇宙的发展持乐观态度。
(本题10分)An IT company from Finland has developed a new font (字体) which uses machine learning to rewrite bad language into kinder words.
More than a third of bullying (欺凌) takes place online, and the numbers are on the rise, according to a report by the United Nations’ educational organization UNESCO. TietoEVRY developed the Polite Type font as a new tool to deal with online bullying among kids, pointing out harmful language and causing users to pick kinder words.
As users try to write hurtful English words, the font will automatically replace them.
Writing “I hate you” would, for example, result in the milder “I disagree with you” when Polite Type is used on the computer. The sentence “you are ugly” is replaced with “you are not traditionally beautiful” while rude words are blurred (使模糊) completely. The company says it is the first example where a blur has been used as a symbol in a font package. Racial slurs (种族歧视语) are replaced with the racial group the slur is related to, rather than blurring the word entirely.
The vocabulary of the font was co-created with teenagers from Finland. The font’s library of words was chosen to include language from different origins, religions, and world views, and will make adjustments as more people and businesses use it. In the future, TietoEVRY suggests that machine learning could be used to teach the font to understand how language is used. Polite Type can be now downloaded and used for free.
“We want bullies to rethink the words they use and the actual meaning behind them,” said Kia Haring, global head of communication and sustainability at TietoEVRY. “I hope that our cause acts as a wake-up call for all audiences to consider how bullying could be handled.”
32.(2.5分)What is special about the Polite Type font according to the text?
A.It includes a wider vocabulary. B.It consists of words and symbols.
C.It hides all the unusual expressions. D.It prefers long sentences to short ones.
33.(2.5分)What can we expect of the Polite Type font in the future?
A.It will have more words blurred. B.More racial groups will use it.
C.It will be constantly updated. D.Users will be charged with using it.
34.(2.5分)What does Kia Haring think of creating the Polite Type font?
A.Imperfect. B.Unsuccessful. C.Appealing. D.Inspiring.
35.(2.5分)What is the best title for the text?
A.Polite Type: the self-developing font. B.A font automatically avoids racial slurs.
C.Show others kindness by using a new font. D.A font designed to fight online bullying.
【答案】32.B 33.C 34.D 35.D
【导语】本文介绍芬兰一家科技公司TietoEVRY开发的Polite Type字体,它借助机器学习将网络不良用语替换为文明表达,旨在应对青少年网络欺凌问题,同时介绍了该字体的设计细节、词库构建、未来升级方向及开发初衷。
【详解】32.细节理解题。根据第四段“The company says it is the first example where a blur has been used as a symbol in a font package.(该公司表示,这是字体包中首次将模糊效果用作符号)”可知,这款字体的特别之处在于它结合了文字与符号。
33.推理判断题。根据第五段“The font’s library of words was chosen to include language from different origins, religions, and world views, and will make adjustments as more people and businesses use it.(该字体的词汇库选取了来自不同起源、不同宗教和不同世界观的语言,并且会随着更多人和企业使用该字体而进行相应调整)”可知,Polite Type字体未来会持续更新。
34.推理判断题。根据最后一段“I hope that our cause acts as a wake-up call for all audiences to consider how bullying could be handled.(我希望我们的事业能为所有受众敲响警钟,思考如何应对欺凌问题)”可知,Kia Haring认为开发这款字体具有启发意义。
35.主旨大意题。全文围绕TietoEVRY开发的Polite Type字体展开,核心介绍其通过改写不良语言对抗网络欺凌的功能。D项“一款旨在对抗网络欺凌的字体”符合主题,最适合作为标题。
(本题12.5分)Cookie-consent pop-ups are one of the biggest annoyances on the Internet. Almost every site you visit has a notice saying, “This website uses cookies to improve your experience. Do you agree?” or something similar. 36(2.5分) But should we? Not necessarily.
Many companies have you click “yes” so that they’re compliant with current privacy laws. 37(2.5分) And they don’t have to worry about legal backlash. Most of the time, cookies are no big deal. There are a few occasions, though, where you should decline cookies.
Beware when you’re on an unprotected website while using a public Wi-Fi network. The information collected by cookies can be accessed by hackers because there isn’t any security to stop them. 38(2.5分) While in this mode, cookies aren’t collected by default, no matter where your Internet journeys take you.
39(2.5分) Otherwise, accepting gives the website the right to sell your browsing behavior to a data broker, who then combines your behavior on one website with information from other websites and builds an extremely detailed profile of you as a consumer. “The broker then sells that profile to other third parties who want to market to people like you,” says Harry Maugans, CEO of Privacy Bee, a proactive privacy management tool for consumers. According to Maugans, some third-party cookies are even malicious. You could become a victim of “cookie stealing” or “session hijacking”.
If you’re afraid that you’ve already accepted cookies on websites where you wouldn’t want your information gathered, go into your browser and use the “clear cookies” option 40(2.5分) So next time you see a cookie pop-up, think twice before you click.
A.Once you do so, you can easily withdraw your permission at any time.
B.This simple action puts you back in the driver’s seat of your own privacy.
C.If the cookie-consent pop-up mentions third-party cookies, click “decline”.
D.That’s why privacy experts recommend clearing your cookies every day.
E.Clicking gives the company permission to use your information as they see fit.
F.Your best bet when borrowing coffee shop Wi-Fi is to use your browser’s private mode.
G.Typically, we click “yes” or “agree” without even thinking, eager to get to the content.
【答案】36.G 37.E 38.F 39.C 40.B
【导语】本文是主要介绍了网页Cookie同意弹窗的相关利弊、何时应拒绝接受Cookie以及保护个人隐私的相关做法。
【详解】36.由下文“But should we? Not necessarily.(但我们应该同意吗?未必如此。)”可知,设空处应描述人们面对Cookie弹窗时习惯性同意的行为。G选项“Typically, we click ‘yes’ or ‘agree’ without even thinking, eager to get to the content.(通常我们不假思索就点击‘是’或‘同意’,急于浏览内容。)”承接后文反问,从而引发了后文的讨论,语义衔接自然。
37.由上文“Many companies have you click ‘yes’ so that they’re compliant with current privacy laws.(很多公司让你点击同意是为了遵守现行隐私法。)”和下文“And they don’t have to worry about legal backlash.(而且他们不必担心法律追责。)”可知,设空处应说明用户点击同意后对公司的作用。E选项“Clicking gives the company permission to use your information as they see fit.(点击同意就等于授权公司随意使用你的个人信息。)”揭示了点击“是”的实质:用户给予授权。这正好解释了公司如何实现“合规”(通过获得用户明确同意),并且有了这个授权,他们自然“不必担心法律反弹”,逻辑链条完整。
38.根据上文“Beware when you’re on an unprotected website while using a public Wi-Fi network. The information-collected by cookies can be accessed by hackers because there isn’t any security to stop them. (当你在使用公共Wi-Fi网络访问不安全的网站时要小心。黑客可以访问cookies收集的信息,因为没有任何安全措施可以阻止他们。)”可知,这里指出了在公共Wi-Fi下使用cookie的安全风险。因此,本空需要一个句子,能提供在这种高风险情况下的应对建议。F选项“Your best bet when borrowing coffee shop Wi-Fi is to use your browser’s private mode. (当你借用咖啡店的Wi-Fi时,最好的选择是使用浏览器的隐私模式。)”符合题意。该项直接给出了具体建议——“使用浏览器的隐私模式”,这与“公共Wi-Fi”的场景吻合。
39.由下文“Otherwise, accepting gives the website the right to sell your browsing behavior to a data broker(否则,同意授权会让网站有权把你的浏览记录卖给数据中间商。)”可知,设空处应给出遇到特定Cookie弹窗时的正确操作。C选项“If the cookie-consent pop-up mentions third-party cookies, click ‘decline’.(若Cookie授权弹窗提及第三方Cookie,就点击“拒绝”。)”与后文otherwise形成正反对比,逻辑通顺。
40.由上文“If you’re afraid that you’ve already accepted cookies on websites where you wouldn’t want your information gathered, go into your browser and use the ‘clear cookies’ option (如果你担心已经在那些你不想被收集信息的网站上接受了cookies,进入你的浏览器并使用“清除cookies”选项。)”可知,设空处应说明清除Cookie这一操作的意义。B选项“This simple action puts you back in the driver’s seat of your own privacy.(这个简单操作能让你重新掌控自己的隐私。)”承接上文操作,说明其作用。

【答案】One possible version:
Dear fellow students,
Nowadays, more and more teenagers are spending too much time online. Overusing it may result in poor eyesight, sleep loss, and declining academic performance. Worse still, it isolates us from friends and family, leading to loneliness and stress.
To prevent addiction, we can take the following steps. Set a clear time limit for daily online use — one hour at most. Replace screen time with sports, reading, or other hobbies. Also, turn off your phone or computer while doing homework and before bed. These small changes can make a big difference.
Let’s take action now. Say no to Internet addiction and embrace a healthy life!

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,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Brrrring! The bell rang as I tapped out a quick beat on my desk. I’ve figured it out, finally! I couldn’t wait to play it for my neighbor Mia.
Mia and I had been working for weeks on a song for Saturday’s band competition but we had been stuck on the ending.
I waved when I saw a familiar face jogging toward me down the hall.
“Hey, Will!” Liam grinned. “Ready for some training after school? I’ve been working on my jumper.” He turned around and shot an imaginary ball into the air.
Uh-oh. I’d forgotten all about basketball. I didn’t want to fail Liam, but I was dying to try out the new ending.
Maybe if I had a reason to skip…
“Hey, Liam. I don’t feel so great.” I gave a small cough for effect. “Another time?” “Sure, no problem. Feel better soon, OK?” Then Liam left immediately.
Lying was easier than I imagined. I could finish the song and Liam's feelings weren’t hurt.
After playing the ending, I looked at Mia hopefully, “What do you think?” “Perfect!” She exclaimed in delight.
“That sounded great, guys.” Liam stood on my basement steps with his eyebrows raised.
Oh, no. Busted. “Thanks,” I said, trying to think quickly. “It was strange. I came home and suddenly felt fine. I would have met you at the court, but it was too late. And then Mia stopped by, and —”
“But, in fact, you called me,” Mia said, shaking her head.
“I had intended to call to ask a homework question, and then…” My voice trailed off (逐渐减弱). I coughed, but it sounded fake. “I can’t remember how it went exactly, but I’m feeling better now.”
“Well, that’s good, I guess.” Liam forced a smile.
Before I could think of something to say, Liam tossed (扔) a case of a movie intended to comfort me onto the couch, Captain Crush, Part 2, the sequel to our favorite movie in which an evil villain’s little lie turned into a big mess, and left with eyes filled with disappointment, followed by Mia.
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。
Para.1: After Liam and Mia left, I grabbed the movie and popped it in.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Para. 2: The next morning, I met Liam at the bus stop.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 Para.1: After Liam and Mia left, I grabbed the movie and popped it in. As the familiar scenes of Captain Crush, Part 2 unfolded on the screen, I couldn’t focus. The story of the villain’s lie spiraling out of control hit too close to home. I realized how my own lie had hurt Liam. Guilt gnawed at me. I kept replaying the disappointed look in his eyes. I knew I had to make it right. I turned off the movie, determined to find a way to fix our friendship.
Para. 2: The next morning, I met Liam at the bus stop. My heart pounded nervously. “Liam,” I said, looking him straight in the eye, “I’m really sorry. I shouldn’t have lied to you. I was just so excited about the song. I know that’s no excuse.” Liam was silent for a moment, then he sighed. “It’s okay. I get it. I was just disappointed you didn’t trust me enough to tell the truth.” I smiled in relief. “Let’s make a deal. Next time I’ll be honest, and we can work out a way to balance both basketball and music.” Liam grinned. “Deal.” As the bus arrived, we boarded together, our friendship stronger than before.

Does that help them feel more connected if we build a eye with human happiness in mind, we could make the world a Better place. Good morning, everyone. I am delighted to be here today.

That's why I believe we shouldn't measure the success of AI by clicks or screen time. Instead, we should focus on its impact on people's emotions. Does IT make them feel happier? Does that help them feel more connected? If we build a eye with human happiness in mind, we could make the world a Better place. 听力部分到此结束。

(本题10分)Being stuck in miles of stopped traffic is not a relaxing way to start or finish a holiday. And as we move slowly along the road, many of us will fantasize a future free of traffic jams.
As a mathematician and motorist, I view traffic as a complex system, consisting of many interacting agents, including cars, trucks, cyclists and walkers. Sometimes these agents interact in a free-flowing way and at other times they simply come to a stop. All situations can be examined — and hopefully improved — using mathematical modeling. For instance, mathematical models tell us that if drivers kept within the variable speed limits on a motorway, traffic would flow consistently at, say, 50 mph.
However, we tend to drive more aggressively (激进地), speeding up as soon as the opportunity arises — and being forced to slow down moments later. The result is greater fuel consumption and a longer overall journey time. But could this change if our roads were taken over by driverless cars?
In theory, driverless cars will typically drive within the speed limits, have faster reaction times allowing them to drive closer together and will behave less randomly than humans. Choosing the best route, accounting for barriers and traffic volume (量), driverless cars will behave in a more rational (理性的) way, as they can communicate with other cars and quickly change their route or driving behavior.
Of course, even integrating driverless cars into the best modeling, we could still get to the point where there are simply too many cars on the road, and traffic jams can occur. Yet there is still potential for self-driving cars to help. Some car makers expect that eventually we will stop viewing cars as possessions and instead simply treat them as a transport service. Again, by applying mathematical modeling, we could make this shared autonomous vehicle service operate most efficiently, reducing the overall number of cars on the road.
24.(2.5分)What does the author think of traffic flow?
A.It follows strict patterns. B.It is affected by many factors.
C.It involves mathematical modeling. D.It depends heavily on drivers’ skills.
25.(2.5分)What is the major reason behind traffic problems?
A.Poor traffic planning. B.Terrible road conditions.
C.Random driving behavior. D.Unreasonable speed limits.
26.(2.5分)What does paragraph 4 mainly tell us about driverless cars?
A.How they reduce fuel use. B.How they could avoid barriers.
C.How they would improve traffic. D.How they may ensure road safety.
27.(2.5分)What might be the most striking feature of future transportation?
A.Fewer private cars. B.More urban motorways.
C.More efficient traffic rules. D.More intelligent navigation.
(本题10分)The metaverse (元宇宙) , a virtual world that combines virtual reality (VR) , augmented reality (AR) and the Internet, has become a hot topic in recent years. It is not just a new form of entertainment but a new space for people to work, study, communicate and live, which is expected to change the way we live and interact with the world.
The metaverse brings many new possibilities to people’s lives. In terms of work, people can work in a virtual office with colleagues from all over the world without going out, which saves time and travel costs. For example, a designer in China can cooperate with a team in the United States in a virtual studio, sharing ideas and modifying designs in real time. In education, the metaverse can create immersive learning environments. Students can “visit” ancient civilizations, dive into the deep sea or even travel to outer space through VR equipment, making learning more interesting and vivid. In daily life, people can make friends, attend virtual concerts and try on virtual clothes in the metaverse, enriching their spiritual life.
However, the development of the metaverse still faces many obstacles. First, the technology of the metaverse is not yet mature. VR and AR equipment is relatively expensive, and the virtual experience is not yet perfect, which limits the number of people who can access it. Second, there are hidden risks in data security and privacy protection. In the metaverse, people need to provide a lot of personal information, which may be stolen or misused by criminals. Third, the metaverse may lead to some social problems, such as people being addicted to the virtual world and ignoring real-life interactions.
To promote the healthy development of the metaverse, governments, enterprises and individuals need to work together. Governments should formulate relevant laws and regulations to standardize the development of the metaverse and protect users’ data security and privacy. Enterprises should increase investment in technology research and development to improve the virtual experience and reduce the cost of equipment. Individuals should use the metaverse rationally, balance the time spent in the virtual world and real life. With joint efforts, the metaverse will better serve people and bring more convenience and happiness to our lives.
28.(2.5分)What is the metaverse according to the passage?
A.A new form of online entertainment only.
B.A virtual world combining VR, AR and the Internet.
C.A new type of mobile phone application.
D.A real-world space for people to work and study.
29.(2.5分)Which of the following is NOT a possibility brought by the metaverse?
A.Working in a virtual office with global colleagues.
B.Having immersive learning experiences.
C.Ignoring real-life interactions completely.
D.Attending virtual concerts in daily life.
30.(2.5分)What does the underlined word “obstacles” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A.Opportunities.
B.Advantages.
C.Difficulties and challenges.
D.Solutions.
31.(2.5分)What is the author’s attitude towards the development of the metaverse?
A.Negative.
B.Optimistic.
C.Doubtful.
D.Neutral.
(本题10分)An IT company from Finland has developed a new font (字体) which uses machine learning to rewrite bad language into kinder words.
More than a third of bullying (欺凌) takes place online, and the numbers are on the rise, according to a report by the United Nations’ educational organization UNESCO. TietoEVRY developed the Polite Type font as a new tool to deal with online bullying among kids, pointing out harmful language and causing users to pick kinder words.
As users try to write hurtful English words, the font will automatically replace them.
Writing “I hate you” would, for example, result in the milder “I disagree with you” when Polite Type is used on the computer. The sentence “you are ugly” is replaced with “you are not traditionally beautiful” while rude words are blurred (使模糊) completely. The company says it is the first example where a blur has been used as a symbol in a font package. Racial slurs (种族歧视语) are replaced with the racial group the slur is related to, rather than blurring the word entirely.
The vocabulary of the font was co-created with teenagers from Finland. The font’s library of words was chosen to include language from different origins, religions, and world views, and will make adjustments as more people and businesses use it. In the future, TietoEVRY suggests that machine learning could be used to teach the font to understand how language is used. Polite Type can be now downloaded and used for free.
“We want bullies to rethink the words they use and the actual meaning behind them,” said Kia Haring, global head of communication and sustainability at TietoEVRY. “I hope that our cause acts as a wake-up call for all audiences to consider how bullying could be handled.”
32.(2.5分)What is special about the Polite Type font according to the text?
A.It includes a wider vocabulary. B.It consists of words and symbols.
C.It hides all the unusual expressions. D.It prefers long sentences to short ones.
33.(2.5分)What can we expect of the Polite Type font in the future?
A.It will have more words blurred. B.More racial groups will use it.
C.It will be constantly updated. D.Users will be charged with using it.
34.(2.5分)What does Kia Haring think of creating the Polite Type font?
A.Imperfect. B.Unsuccessful. C.Appealing. D.Inspiring.
35.(2.5分)What is the best title for the text?
A.Polite Type: the self-developing font. B.A font automatically avoids racial slurs.
C.Show others kindness by using a new font. D.A font designed to fight online bullying.
(本题12.5分)Cookie-consent pop-ups are one of the biggest annoyances on the Internet. Almost every site you visit has a notice saying, “This website uses cookies to improve your experience. Do you agree?” or something similar. 36(2.5分) But should we? Not necessarily.
Many companies have you click “yes” so that they’re compliant with current privacy laws. 37(2.5分) And they don’t have to worry about legal backlash. Most of the time, cookies are no big deal. There are a few occasions, though, where you should decline cookies.
Beware when you’re on an unprotected website while using a public Wi-Fi network. The information collected by cookies can be accessed by hackers because there isn’t any security to stop them. 38(2.5分) While in this mode, cookies aren’t collected by default, no matter where your Internet journeys take you.
39(2.5分) Otherwise, accepting gives the website the right to sell your browsing behavior to a data broker, who then combines your behavior on one website with information from other websites and builds an extremely detailed profile of you as a consumer. “The broker then sells that profile to other third parties who want to market to people like you,” says Harry Maugans, CEO of Privacy Bee, a proactive privacy management tool for consumers. According to Maugans, some third-party cookies are even malicious. You could become a victim of “cookie stealing” or “session hijacking”.
If you’re afraid that you’ve already accepted cookies on websites where you wouldn’t want your information gathered, go into your browser and use the “clear cookies” option 40(2.5分) So next time you see a cookie pop-up, think twice before you click.
A.Once you do so, you can easily withdraw your permission at any time.
B.This simple action puts you back in the driver’s seat of your own privacy.
C.If the cookie-consent pop-up mentions third-party cookies, click “decline”.
D.That’s why privacy experts recommend clearing your cookies every day.
E.Clicking gives the company permission to use your information as they see fit.
F.Your best bet when borrowing coffee shop Wi-Fi is to use your browser’s private mode.
G.Typically, we click “yes” or “agree” without even thinking, eager to get to the content.

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,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Brrrring! The bell rang as I tapped out a quick beat on my desk. I’ve figured it out, finally! I couldn’t wait to play it for my neighbor Mia.
Mia and I had been working for weeks on a song for Saturday’s band competition but we had been stuck on the ending.
I waved when I saw a familiar face jogging toward me down the hall.
“Hey, Will!” Liam grinned. “Ready for some training after school? I’ve been working on my jumper.” He turned around and shot an imaginary ball into the air.
Uh-oh. I’d forgotten all about basketball. I didn’t want to fail Liam, but I was dying to try out the new ending.
Maybe if I had a reason to skip…
“Hey, Liam. I don’t feel so great.” I gave a small cough for effect. “Another time?” “Sure, no problem. Feel better soon, OK?” Then Liam left immediately.
Lying was easier than I imagined. I could finish the song and Liam's feelings weren’t hurt.
After playing the ending, I looked at Mia hopefully, “What do you think?” “Perfect!” She exclaimed in delight.
“That sounded great, guys.” Liam stood on my basement steps with his eyebrows raised.
Oh, no. Busted. “Thanks,” I said, trying to think quickly. “It was strange. I came home and suddenly felt fine. I would have met you at the court, but it was too late. And then Mia stopped by, and —”
“But, in fact, you called me,” Mia said, shaking her head.
“I had intended to call to ask a homework question, and then…” My voice trailed off (逐渐减弱). I coughed, but it sounded fake. “I can’t remember how it went exactly, but I’m feeling better now.”
“Well, that’s good, I guess.” Liam forced a smile.
Before I could think of something to say, Liam tossed (扔) a case of a movie intended to comfort me onto the couch, Captain Crush, Part 2, the sequel to our favorite movie in which an evil villain’s little lie turned into a big mess, and left with eyes filled with disappointment, followed by Mia.
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。
Para.1: After Liam and Mia left, I grabbed the movie and popped it in.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Para. 2: The next morning, I met Liam at the bus stop.
