B A school resource officer turned a failed summer field trip into an unforgettable memory for over 140 poor middle school students in Phoenix. When the funding for the end-of-summer movie trip fell through unexpectedly, programme coordinator Katie Jenkins was at a loss.She turned to Officer Sean Reavie for help.Without hesitation,Reavie paid out of his own pocket to rent a whole movie theatre for 144 seventh and eighth graders from Greenway Middle School's after-school programme.He also covered snacks including popcorn,candies and drinks for the private screening of Toy Story 5.For most kids,this was their very first time stepping into a movie theatre. The whole rental cost less than $2,000,yet the experience meant far more to these teenagers.Reavie said he would spare more money if needed,for he believed adults must never break promises made to children.Greenway is a Title I school,where most students come from financially disadvantaged families.Many have no private cars,and their parents hold several low-paying jobs to make ends meet.Half of these kids have never visited a water park,let alone travelled across the nearby highway. Reavie has kept helping kids with his own money year after year.Last summer,he spent over $3,000 taking students to a local water park.Inspired by children's fondness for superheroes,he also founded a charity called Put On The Cape:A Foundation For Hope, aiming to bring warmth to more troubled youngsters. 【高二英语第3页（共8页）】 Before the movie rolled,Reavie shared a heartfelt wish with all the kids:grow up and pass on kindness to others as a return for what he had done.He expected nothing material in return,hoping this single act of generosity would plant seeds of kindness that would bloom (开花)for years to come. 24.Why did Jenkins ask Reavie for help? A.She lacked money for the planned trip. B.All cinema tickets were sold out. C.The snacks prepared were far from enough. D.Some students refused to watch movies. 25.Why did the author mention students'family backgrounds in Paragraph 3? A.To explain the expenses a family covered for the trip. B.To illustrate the backwardness of local education. C.To highlight the great value of the experience for kids. D.To praise Reavie for what he had done for the school. 26.Which of the following can best describe Reavie? A.Patient and humorous. B.Generous and warm-hearted. C.Independent and reliable. D.Modest and open-minded. 27.What was Reavie's expectation for the kids? A.To treasure every moment in life. B.To hold on to their dreams. C.To seek personal material rewards. D.To spread kindness to more people. C "Plop plop,fizz fizz,oh what a relief it is.You might have thought that only the pill that is advertised creates relief.But science suggests it is the words of the advertisement that actually produce it.Scientists call this mental assistance,Cognitive()Facilitation. Professional writers and speakers use it all the time,as is seen in Shelley's poem: And the sunlight clasps the earth And the moonbeams kiss the sea: What is all this sweet work worth If thou (you)kiss not me? The structure of the first sentence acts as a prime()which is repeated in the second sentence,making its meaning better get across.Primes bring the flow of words into people's minds.That gives you a straightforward means of writing or speaking that attracts people. Why do primes work?Readers and listeners are always asking,"What will this person say next?"The habit of guessing what's next is universal.So when you place a prime early on-a word or phrase or sentence structure you plan to reuse-people take notice.They instantly and unknowingly place a bet,and if they're right,they get a pay-off in faster language processing. Many experiments confirm this advantage.One small study by Uta Noppeney asked 25 people to read blocks of text,some of which had repeating language structures;some did not. People who read blocks with parallel()patterns finished sentences faster roughly by 0.1 seconds. In another study,Sascha Topolinski at the University of Cologne had participants read short jokes and rate their funniness.Some were unknowingly primed with a key word from the punchline(),while others were not.Topolinski's readers rated jokes as funnier if the primes were presented more than a minute beforehand.In Topolinski's mind,the primes enabled the participants to catch the joke and to master the punchline. Primes have their limits,of course.They can get boring.That's why experts say: "Repeat and vary.But in everyday talk and text,an old structure conveying a new idea prevents cognitive indigestion.Here's some more new wine in an old bottle:"Plop plop,fizz fizz,oh how friendly a pattern is. 【高二英语第4页（共8页）】 28.What is used as a prime in Shelley's poem? A.A sentence pattern. B.A complex term. C.A straightforward question. D.A meaningful idea. 29.What makes primes work according to Paragraph 3? A.People's concentration ability. B.People's love of rewards. C.People's habit of reusing things. D.People's predictive mind. 30.What did Topolinski believe primes helped participants do? A.Write short jokes. B.Evaluate the humour. C.Read the jokes faster. D.Appreciate the punchline. 31.What is a suitable title for the text? A.The Art of Communication B.The Power of Primes C.The Science of Cognitive Facilitation D.The Skills of Using Patterns D The appearance of predictive text in daily written communication has become a common feature of modern life.It either saves time by automatically filling in words or causes annoyance with irrelevant(不相关的)suggestions..The predictive-text function of large language models (LLMs)is often considered analogous to the human brain's natural ability to forecast upcoming words during daily conversation.It therefore leads to a meaningful question:do human brains predict language in the exact same manner as artificial intelligence? A latest study published in Nature Neuroscience offers a clear answer.It proves that humans tend to consider broader linguistic structures,instead of merely focusing on the single immediate word.LLMs are strictly optimized to predict the next word in a fixed and equal pattern,while the human brain actively combines words into grammatical phrases and makes logical predictions within complete language chunks(). The research team conducted systematic experiments on Mandarin speakers.They applied MEG (to record real-time brain activity and adopted Cloze tests to evaluate participants'linguistic prediction performance.Further analysis on English brain data was also carried out to ensure the results could be applied across different languages. The team also used LLMs to quantify the predictability of words based on both their “entropy'”and“surprisal'”.High entropy indicates that the context doesn't strongly limit following words,giving it less predictability.High surprisal indicates that the next word is not well expected based on the context.For example,the phrase "I saw a"carries higher entropy than“I sat on a”,since far more nouns can follow“saw”. By comparing brain reactions and LLM prediction results,researchers discovered that human brain activity varies with words'structural positions.On the contrary,LLMs lack such structural awareness and only provide simple,fixed predictions.Overall,human beings share basic word prediction ability with Al,but our brain's language judgement is deeply shaped by grammatical structures.This fundamental difference perfectly explains why human language processing is far more complex and flexible than current AI language models. 32.The underlined word "analogous"in Paragraph 1 probably means A.Unrelated B.similar C.opposite D.contradictory 33.What can we infer from Paragraph 2? A.Humans handle words and phrases faster. B.LLMs are better at predicting rare words. C.LLMs are able to make logical predictions. D.Humans focus more on language structures. 34.How does the author organize Paragraph 4? A.By describing an experiment and listing data. B.By citing()a quote and providing explanations. C.By defining two terms and giving examples. D.By raising a question and offering answers. 【高二英语第5页（共8页）】 35.What enables humans to outperform LLMs in word prediction? A.Vocabulary recognition stability. B.Data analysis capacity. C.Grammar structure completeness. D.Word processing speed. 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人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。 Want to improve your life but feel overwhelmed by big changes?Actually,small and positive actions can make a significant difference.Lasting well-being is often built through consistent,manageable choices.You don't need a huge transformation.36 Here are some evidence-backed steps to get you started. 37 It can be about finding the delight in small,everyday moments,and deciding to approach your day-to-day life with good humour.38 Researcher Tomisawa et al.(2025) found that laughing helps to improve optimism,reduce pessimism,and relieve stress.Of course,that doesn't mean that you should go around laughing at anything and everything.Be aware of what's happening around you and recognise the moments or interactions that hold the potential for amusement,and actively choose to lean into that. Stand up for what you believe in,even when it feels uncomfortable.Whether it's defending someone,challenging unkind behaviour,or simply expressing your viewpoint, standing up for what matters to you strengthens your sense of identity and helps you to be an active bystander.39 It's being willing to act even when you feel scared.Each time you stand up for what you believe to be right,you're confirming that your voice matters and deserves to be heard. Actively seek out connection.Our relationships are foundational to happiness.Having people around you to celebrate successes,laugh at mistakes,or share struggles nurtures deep connection and improves our individual well-being.Research has found that having such friendships predicted well-being and its components.40 In short,small actions repeated consistently create meaningful change.These suggested steps all have the power to positively impact our everyday lives and help move us closer to the life that we want. A.A few intentional minor shifts will do. B.Cherish daily progress. C.So take time to develop supportive relationships. D.Seek out fun and laughter in everyday things. E.It builds up confidence and shapes how others see you. F.It seems scary,but courage isn't the absence of fear. G.The benefits of this joyful approach are well-documented. 第三部分语言运用（共两节，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，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 I used to wake up and reach for my phone before I even opened my eyes.That was the 41.By the time my day began,I had seen many strangers'highlights,with a sense that everyone else's life was moving 42 than mine.I knew it wasn't good for me.

Toby slipped it deep inside his winter-coat pocket,"I'm 12,and I no longer need to call for help!"To him,blowing the whistle would mean admitting he was not brave enough. That weekend,Toby went snow-trekking(雪地徒步)in the nearby forest with his best friend Jax.But an argument broke out between them over a silly game.Toby stormed off in anger,leaving Jax behind.He told himself he did not need anyone's company.He would explore deeper into the woods alone to prove how tough he was. But the sun began to set.Grey clouds rolled in unexpectedly.A bitter winter wind sprang up.Snow began to fall in thick,swirling flakes.The gentle afternoon snow quickly turned into a snowstorm.Visibility dropped sharply.Toby could no longer tell which path led back home.He was lost. Cold bit through his gloves and his winter jacket.His cheeks and nose ached from the bitter wind.Panic rose inside his chest.He pulled his hands out of his gloves and fumbled( )inside his coat pocket.His fingers closed around the hard shape of Grandpa's whistle.It was right there.But shame washed over him.He had run away after the fight.If he blew the whistle,Grandpa and Jax would know he had acted stupidly.They would laugh at him for getting lost.Pride held him back.He put the whistle back into his pocket and told himself he could find the way home by himself. He struggled forward through the heavy snow.The wind howled,blowing snow into his eyes.The temperature kept dropping.Still,the whistle stayed safely hidden in his pocket.As it was getting dark in the snowy woods,Toby felt close to passing out from the cold.He had to hide behind a large pine tree for shelter. 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。 Inside his pocket,the bone whistle pressed against his hand.
