Timothy was Old Tom's son.It was sometimes said in the town that if Old Tom was Miss Polly's night-hand man,Timothy was her left.Timothy was a good-natured youth,and a good- looking one,as well.Although Nancy had only been at the house for a short time,the two were already good friends. Today,however,Nancy was too full of her task to be her usual talkative self,and almost in silence she took the drive to the station and got off to wait for the train.She had even brought a little blanket and some candies for the child.Over and over in her mind she was saying it "light hair,red-checked dress,straw hat."Over and over again she was wondering just what sort of child this Pollyanna was,anyway. "I hope,for her own good,that she's quiet and sensible,and does not drop knives or bang doors,"she sighed to Timothy,who had walked slowly up to her. "Well,if she isn't,nobody knows what'll happen to the rest of us,"laughed Timothy. Imagine Miss Polly and a NOIS Y kid!Goodness!There goes the train whistle now!" "Oh,Timothy,I...I think..."chattered the suddenly frightened Nancy,as she turned and hurried to a point where she could best watch the passengers get off at the little station. It was not long before Nancy saw her-the slim little girl in the red-checked dress with two thick pigtails of light golden hair hanging down her back.Beneath the straw hat,an eager, freckled little face turned to the right and to the left,searching for someone.Nancy knew the child at once,but for some time she could not control her shaking knees enough to go to her. The little girl was standing quite by herself when Nancy finally did approach her 24.What information about the guest was known before the meeting? A.Hobby. B.Figure. C.Appearance. D.Personality. 高三英语第2页共8页 25.What can be inferred from what Timothy said? A.He regarded the situation amusing B.He was annoyed by Miss Polly's decision. C.He feared that the child might cause trouble. D.He was confident about dealing with the kid 26.What can be learned from the text? A.Pollyanna was a naughty child B.Timothy was helpful to Miss Polly C.Old Tom drove Nancy to the station D.Miss Polly welcomed noisy children. 27.Which words can best describe Nancy on this occasion? A.Strict but confident. B.Anxious but caring. C.Careless but humorous. D.Talkative but impatient. C Nations with large amounts of wind and solar in their power grids (are easily affected by rapidly-rising energy bills due to sharp increases in the gas price.The relationship between decarbonisation and price swings has been a controversial issue as governments consider clean energy strategies,but an analysis of power prices in Europe has now provided evidence to inform the debate Vast quantities of wind and solar capacity have been built across Europe in recent years. But these power sources are intermittent,generating electricity only when the wind blows or the sky is cloudless. Gas power plants,which can be switched on and off relatively easily,are frequently relied on to provide power when renewable generation is low.But gas is often the most expensive source of power,and electricity market rules mean the most expensive generator sets the price for the entire market. Raul Bajo-Buenestado at the University of Navarra in Spain and his colleagues found nations with more wind and solar in their power systems were more vulnerable(易受攻击的) to natural gas price shocks.Spain,for example,has large volumes of solar power and is particularly sensitive to power price changes."If you have natural gas,wind and solar,this is going to make the perfect cocktail for you to be vulnerable,"says Bajo-Buenestado. It is the need for flexible generation alongside wind and solar that is the issue.Bajo- Buenestado points out that other nations with low-carbon power grids,such as Norway and France,rely on hydropower and nuclear technology,which are reliable generators."We don't see a clear correlation between decarbonisation and sensitivity to natural gas price changes,"he says. Solving the problem will require nations to replace gas as the back-up fuel of choice.One answer is for grid operators to push the power system to become better able to absorb peaks and valleys in generation.The underlying message is that getting a flexible system is now as important as building renewables,"says Michael Grubb at University College London. 28.What does the underlined word"intermittent"probably mean in paragraph 2? A.Irregular. B.Inefficient. C.Irresistible. D.Inexpensive 高三英语第3页共8页 29.What is Bajo-Buenestado's "the perfect cocktail"? A.A policy hard to justify B.A plan for lower electricity prices. C.A temporary gas shortage D.A power mix easily hit by gas price shocks 30.Why does the author mention Norway and France? A.To urge a shift to hydro and nuclear power. B.To compare their power grids with those of Spain C.To demonstrate why gas is such an expensive fuel. D.To show low-carbon grids not necessarily gas-price sensitive. 31.What message does the author intend to convey? A.Hydropower and nuclear power should take over gas. B.More gas plants are needed to balance renewable output. C.Greater grid adaptability is needed to reduce gas as back-up. D.Building a flexible grid matters more than expanding renewables D Since the release of ChatGPT in late 2022,millions of people have started using large language models (LLMs)to access knowledge.And it's easy to understand their appeal:Ask a question,get a polished synthesis(合成)，and move on一it feels like effortless learning. However,this ease may come at a cost:When people rely on LLMs to synthesize information on a topic for them,they tend to develop shallower knowledge about it compared to learning through a traditional search engine. Co-author Jin Ho Yun and I reported this in a paper based on seven studies with over 10,000 participants.Participants were asked to learn about a topic like how to grow a vegetable garden and were randomly assigned to do so by using either an LLM like ChatGPT or the "old- fashioned way",by using a traditional search engine like Google.Once they completed their research,they were then asked to write advice to a friend on the topic based on what they learned. The results revealed that people who learned about a topic through LLMs rather than a web search felt that they learned less,invested less effort in writing their advice,and ultimately wrote advice that was shorter,less factual,and more general.In turn,when this advice was presented to their friends who were unaware of which tool had been used,they found the advice to be less informative,less helpful,and they were less likely to adopt it.This may be because traditional search requires active engagement,while LLMs make learning more passive To be clear,we do not believe the solution is to avoid using LLMs,especially given the undeniable benefits they offer in many contexts.Rather,our message is that people simply need to become smarter or more strategic users of LLMs-which starts by understanding where LLMs are helpful and where they are harmful to their goals. In my future research,I plan to study AI tools that could most successfully motivate users to actively learn more.Such tools would seem particularly critical in secondary education, where a major challenge for educators is how best to equip students to develop foundational reading,writing,and math skills while also preparing for a real world where LLMs are likely to be an essential part of their daily lives. 高三英语第4页共8页 32.How does the author introduce the topic? A.By listing reasons. B.By providing statistics C.By presenting a contrast. D.By sharing a personal experience. 33.What can be learned from the seven studies? A.Advice from LLM users was less specific B.Readers'responses were based on the tool used. C.Search-engine users were confident of their answers. D.Participants were grouped by background knowledge. 34.What does the author plan to do in the future? A.To improve the accuracy of AI-generated syntheses. B.To explore how AI tools can encourage active learning. C.To prevent students from LLMs in secondary education D.To make LLMs more efficient for quick factual answers. 35.Which can be the best title for the text? A.Learning with LLMs Falls Short. B.LLM Synthesis is a Mixed Blessing C.AI Use Calls for Smarter Search Engines. D.Traditional Search Tools Make a Comeback 第二节（共5小题：每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为 多余选项。 Most people have experienced obvious exhaustion after excessive social interactions. Constant social engagement can gradually drain one's energy,leaving people emotionally exhausted.36 Let's explore several practical methods to refuel energy and restore inner balance. Occasional alone time enables the brain to process recent social experiences without the constant demand for interaction.37 This could mean sitting quietly,sipping tea or letting your mind wander freely.Such aloneness acts like a phone charger,effectively refreshing your mind and preparing you for future social challenges. Journaling helps people process complex emotions and identify factors that consume their social energy.Transforming inner feelings into written words can relieve stress and promote mental well-being.You may start with a simple question about your recent troubles and let true feelings flow naturally.38 Endless scrolling on social media seems like a relaxing cure,yet it actually drains your energy further.Social comparison brought by social media may raise your anxiety level. Instead of aimless online browsing,you should set regular screen-free hours every day. 39 Playing with the kids or tidying your room makes a wonderful choice. 40 Staying in fresh surroundings can greatly brighten your mood.Environmental psychology studies confirm the positive link between outdoor exposure and mental health. Green spaces can effectively improve people's well-being.Even a short 10-minute walk in parks or wild areas can adjust your negative mood and reshape your mindset. 高三英语第5页共8页 A.Proper rest is an effective way to refill your social energy B.Reserve an hour daily for yourself,free from any disturbance C.Use this time to engage with the physical world to get refreshed. D.This self-reflection helps you figure out what you need to recharge. E.Think of things you have longed to try but never got a chance to do F.It is common and most people are eager to recharge their social battery. G.Connecting with nature works amazingly well for restoring your social battery 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。 When I was in high school,I often wondered what college would be like.My structured 8-to-3 schedule kept me 41 during the day,and 42 took up most of my time after school.I had little time to 43 for anything else.Yet,I made the most of the little time I had 44 new hobbies-anything apart from dealing with school tasks.

Dana had worked at Miller's for four years and knew every regular by order."Sundays are the test,"she warned me."The crowd comes at eight.They are hungry,and they are fast." My first two Sundays went well enough with Dana beside me.Then,one Sunday in August,it happened.Dana was steaming milk when the machine spit.The burn crossed her palm,red and swelling.Mr.Miller drove her to the clinic himself pausing only to point at me."You're in charge,"he said,which I thought was a joke.I even laughed.I had no idea how quickly the joke would end. The line was already out the door.A woman in a blue coat,one of the regulars,was studying the doughnut case;behind her waited a father with three restless children;behind them,the queue folded back on itself.I tied my apron tighter,and took my first order. It went wrong almost immediately.The father asked for hot chocolate,and we were out of cups.I gave a man a dozen bagels (when he had asked for six.Then I charged the wrong customer for the wrong pastry,and the line behind him only grew longer.Every eye in the line was on me,patient the way people are patient with a sinking ship.I could feel my face burning as I stammered apology after apology,my voice shrinking with every word.My hands trembled over the register,and for one horrible moment,I forgot every price,every button,every order Dana had ever taught me. 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。 Take your time.It's okay to make mistakes at first.the woman in blue comforted. I was serving the last customer with a smile when Mr.Miller and Dana returned. 高三英语第8页共8页
