Some are even trying to find more ways to bring the urban population into contact with nature. Mad Architects is one of those companies that are trying to take green designs to a new level. The company believes in the importance of making buildings that can produce their own power and food. They believe the buildings should also recycle all of their waste. The new designs make people living and working in these buildings think about being outside. They feel like they’re reconnecting with the natural world instead of being far apart from it. The company believes this way of thinking is very important for the future of urban living. One of Mad’s newest projects is called the Urban Forest, designed for the city of Chongqing. There will be offices, open spaces, balconies with trees and many plants throughout. The project is inspired by the mountainous Chinese landscape and the traditional villages built on the hillsides. It will be an urban engineering wonder. Architects who are interested in working on the Urban Forest should apply at the Mad offices in Beijing, New York or Rome. 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Zurich, Switzerland’s largest city, has long been best known for its banks and how well everything works there. But these days its cultural scene is also growing rapidly. In this city of rivers and lakes, you can go for a swim in nature, visit many art galleries, and try new kinds of food, all in one day. Getting there & around British Airways, EasyJet, Edelweiss Air and Swiss fly to Zurich from UK airports including Edinburgh, Gatwick, Heathrow, Luton, Manchester and Stansted. The train from London St Pancras International to Zurich takes 6 hours and 55 minutes, which is a shorter time compared to any other train rides, but it includes a change of stations in Paris. And the average flight time is 1 hour and 45 minutes. It’s easy to explore Zurich’s attractions on foot or by using the quick, safe and clean public transport system. You can catch a tram (电车), train, bus or boat at most times of day easily. A 24-hour travel card for use in central Zurich costs £8.30. Trams and buses run from 1 am to 6 am. When to go Zurich is worth visiting all the year round. Winter and early spring see cold days with snow-covered hills and ice skating — with average temperatures around 4℃ to 6℃, while summer brings averages of 25℃ to 28℃, which means open bathing beaches and most of the city’s festivals. Autumn, cooler at around 15℃, is the season for Zurich wine. Every October, there are tastings, master classes and networking sessions related to wine. Where to stay 25 Hours Hotel Langstrasse. Doubles from £140. La Réserve Eden au Lac Zurich. Doubles from £240. How to do it Switzerland Travel Centre offers a three-day tour package — two nights in a three-star hotel in Zurich, including a 72-hour Zurich Card for transport and discounts on attractions, £230 per person, B&B. Flights not included. 21. What can be learned about the travel from the UK to Zurich? A. Transport choices are limited. B. There isn’t any direct flight. C. Taking a boat is the best option. D. The fastest train doesn’t go straight through. 22. Which season is the best to go to Zurich for a festival-goer? A. Spring. B. Summer. C. Autumn. D. Winter. 23. How much should a couple pay if they book the three-day tour package? A. £480. B. £460. C. £230. D. £140. 【答案】21. D 22. B 23. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了从英国到苏黎世旅游的相关内容。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据Getting there & around部分中的“The train from London St Pancras International to Zurich takes 6 hours and 55 minutes, which is a shorter time compared to any other train rides, but it includes a change of stations in Paris.(从伦敦圣潘克拉斯国际站乘坐火车前往苏黎世需要6小时55分钟，这比其他任何列车行程都要短，但其中包含了在巴黎换乘的环节。)”可知，从伦敦到苏黎世的最快的火车需在巴黎换乘，不能直达。故选D。 【22题详解】 推理判断题。根据When to go部分中的“Winter and early spring see cold days with snow-covered hills and ice skating — with average temperatures around 4℃ to 6℃, while summer brings averages of 25℃ to 28℃, which means open bathing beaches and most of the city’s festivals.(冬季和早春时节天气寒冷，山峦被积雪覆盖，人们可以进行滑冰活动——平均气温在 4℃至 6℃之间。而夏季气温则在25℃至 28℃之间，这意味着会有开放式的游泳海滩以及城市的大部分节日活动。)”可知，夏季举办的节日最多，适合喜欢庆祝节日的游客前往。故选B。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一部分中的“£230 per person”可知，该套餐每人230 英镑，所以夫妇二人需要支付460英镑。故选B。 B Steve Clark, 45, a musician from Surrey, battled a fear of swimming for most of his life. As a child, he never took to the water. “It always bothered me. I used to look at people swimming on holiday, and think that I was missing out on the enjoyment of it,” he says. One bad experience when he was on a business trip in his twenties set Clark back even further. He decided to take a dip in a hotel pool, thinking that it wouldn’t be that difficult. This led to a panic moment after he lost his footing in the deep end of the pool. “I was extremely scared that I couldn’t swim,” he says. But in 2014 Clark decided to take the plunge — after all, he was “running out of excuses” not to. Helped by the gentle encouragement of his partner, he completed 10 beginners’ lessons. “It was difficult to start with. My main fear was putting my head under the water, but the instructors taught me a technique to help. Once I learnt how to do it, it got me over the fear,” he says. The swimming lessons allowed him to participate in something that always felt impossible. Clark’s story shows that midlife (中年) is as good a time as any to learn. A study in 2018 by Columbia University found that healthy older men and women can generate just as many new brain cells as younger people. “We used to think of getting older as a loss: a time when we lose skills and lose our looks. But so much research has shown that losing your abilities is not unavoidable,” says Linda Blair, a psychologist. She explains that learning skills can help to keep our brains young. “The brain is like a muscle, so when you learn something new, you’re exercising it and getting better blood flow to the brain. You’re also reestablishing connections; you don’t have to lose a skill forever, you can regain it.” 24. What initially bothered Clark according to the passage? A. His panic in a hotel pool. B. His lack of encouragement. C. His failure in a business trip. D. His inability to enjoy swimming. 25. What does the underlined phrase “take the plunge” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Accept the fact. B. Have a go. C. Avoid the risk. D. Realize his dream. 26. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs? A. Being old does not necessarily mean losing skills. B. People can easily learn new skills at any stage of life. C. Building up muscles can help blood flow into the brain. D. Seniors can produce as many new brain cells as youths. 27. What does Clark’s experience show? A. No pains, no gains. B. Every dog has its day. C. Practice makes perfect. D. It’s never too old to learn. 【答案】24. D 25. B 26. A 27. D 【解析】 【导语】主要说明了45岁音乐人Clark自幼怕水，一次泳池遇险加重恐惧，中年才开始学游泳。文章借其经历说明中年同样适合学习，研究表明年长人群大脑仍可更新，学习能延缓能力衰退。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段““It always bothered me. I used to look at people swimming on holiday, and think that I was missing out on the enjoyment of it,” he says. (“这一直让我感到困扰。我过去总看到人们在度假时游泳，觉得自己的生活似乎错过了这种乐趣。”他说。)”可知，最初让克拉克感到困扰的是他无法享受游泳。 【25题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“Helped by the gentle encouragement of his partner, he completed 10 beginners’ lessons. (在伴侣的温柔鼓励下，他完成了10节初学者课程。)”可知，2014年他决定下定决心学游泳，故划线词意思是“尝试一下”。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“But so much research has shown that losing your abilities is not unavoidable (但大量研究表明，丧失能力并非不可避免)”可知，年龄大并不一定意味着失去技能。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Clark’s story shows that midlife (中年) is as good a time as any to learn. (克拉克的故事表明，中年是学习的最佳时机之一。)”可知，克拉克的经历说明了学习永远不会太晚。 C While most musicians work with other artists when creating their music, Holly Herndon, an American musician and sound artist who is now based in Berlin, takes a different way, working with the machine learning software called Spawn. The software uses artificial neural (人工神经的) networks modeled after the structure of the human brain. These networks learn patterns from datasets during the training process. Based on the data, the networks create new material that includes Herndon’s own voice. When producing her album, PROTO, Holly trained datasets to write new music. The process requires the input data of music written by people or by artificial intelligence (AI). The neural networks then produce variations of that music. “Computers surprise you in a way that an instrument doesn’t,” Holly said. So what does music sound like when composed by what is essentially a robot? It sounds like music from the future! But Holly Herndon isn’t the only one exploring AI in composition. Machines have played an increasingly important role in music over the last century. The father of computer science, Alan Turing, developed the first computer-generated music in 1951. Then in 1980, David Cope from the University of California, Santa Cruz, developed EMI — Experiments in Musical Intelligence, a system that analyzes existing music and produces new pieces based on it. AI might not take over the job of the “pop star” anytime soon, or will it? Miquela Sousa is a computer-generated artist with over one million followers on Instagram. “I’m a model and singer, and I’m a robot,” Miquela said. This then raises the question: can we reproduce creativity using a computer? Though those questions are not easy to answer, I believe the next frontier of music lies somewhere in between. I can see the path forward with a new dawn of creativity that combines human inventiveness with AI. And the next chapter of music will certainly become wonderful as music and AI become even more closely connected. 28. What plays an important role in producing PROTO? A. Holly’s special voice. B. Holly’s rich knowledge. C. The input of existing music. D. The use of an instrument. 29. What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. The recent famous music artists. B. The increasing diversity of AI music. C. The development of computer science. D. The history of computer-generated music. 30. Why does the author mention the example of Miquela Sousa? A. To show the popularity of smart robots. B. To promote deep thinking on AI musicians. C. To explain the tasks of computer-generated artists. D. To make comparisons between human and robotic artists. 31. What is the author’s attitude towards music co-created by AI and humans? A. Confident. B. Surprised. C. Confused. D. Doubtful. 【答案】28. C 29. D 30. B 31. A 【解析】 【导语】主要介绍音乐人Holly借助人工智能创作音乐，梳理计算机生成音乐发展历程，并探讨人工智能与人类联合创作音乐的前景。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“When producing her album, PROTO, Holly trained datasets to write new music. The process requires the input data of music written by people or by artificial intelligence (AI).(在制作专辑PROTO时，霍莉训练数据集创作新音乐。这个过程需要录入由人类或人工智能创作的音乐数据。)”可知，录入已有音乐数据在制作这张专辑中起到重要作用。 【29题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段中的“But Holly Herndon isn’t the only one exploring AI in composition. Machines have played an increasingly important role in music over the last century. The father of computer science, Alan Turing, developed the first computer-generated music in 1951. Then in 1980, David Cope from the University of California, Santa Cruz, developed EMI — Experiments in Musical Intelligence, a system that analyzes existing music and produces new pieces based on it.(但霍莉·赫恩登并不是唯一探索人工智能作曲的人。上个世纪，机器在音乐领域发挥的作用越来越大。计算机科学之父艾伦·图灵在1951年创作出第一首计算机生成音乐。随后在1980年，加州大学圣克鲁兹分校的戴维·科普开发出EMI——音乐智能实验系统，该系统能够分析现有音乐并以此创作新曲目。)”可知，本段按照时间顺序介绍计算机生成音乐的发展历史。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Miquela Sousa is a computer-generated artist with over one million followers on Instagram. “I’m a model and singer, and I’m a robot,” Miquela said. This then raises the question: can we reproduce creativity using a computer?(米克拉·索萨是一名计算机生成艺人，在照片墙拥有超百万粉丝。米克拉称：“我是模特兼歌手，同时我是机器人。”这就引出一个问题：我们能用计算机复刻创造力吗？)”可知，作者举这个例子，旨在引发人们对人工智能艺人相关问题的深入思考。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中的“Though those questions are not easy to answer, I believe the next frontier of music lies somewhere in between. I can see the path forward with a new dawn of creativity that combines human inventiveness with AI. And the next chapter of music will certainly become wonderful as music and AI become even more closely connected.(尽管这些问题并不容易回答，但我相信音乐的下一个前沿领域介于两者之间。我能看到前进的道路，迎来创造力的新曙光，将人类创造能力与人工智能相结合。并且随着音乐和人工智能联系变得更加紧密，音乐的下一个篇章必将变得精彩。)”可知，作者对人类与人工智能协同创作音乐抱有信心。 D In North America, monarch butterflies (帝王蝶) live about a month, but the last generation of the year, the ones that migrate (迁徙) south, can live around eight months. Since the 1990s, monarch populations have dropped, particularly at overwintering sites and populations found east of the Rocky Mountains have reduced by around 80 percent. Researchers think that higher temperatures caused by climate change could be a reason. But until now, no studies have specifically looked at that. To test this hypothesis (假设), Fedorka and his team collected nearly 500 wild monarchs before their migration in autumn and divided them into two groups. In the lab, they placed the two groups in migration-path temperature extremes — 23℃ and 19℃, based on 70 years of data. After 26 days, survivors were put into conditions that copied winter. The team found the monarchs that had been in the warmer temperature started laying eggs early — even when there was no milkweed around, the plant where monarchs lay their eggs and on which their young feed. “These monarchs are ready to drop out of migration at any moment,” Fedorka says. The team also found that male monarchs from the warmer group were 88 percent more likely to die than those from the colder group. Both male and female monarchs that had experienced warmer temperatures during their trip had a 28 percent higher risk of dying during winter—no matter what the winter temperatures were. The team admits that further research is needed to see how the results apply in the wild. Sonia Altizer, an expert who studies insects, notes that monarchs’ habit of stopping their trip south when it’s warm means they might one day stop migrating completely. Or, they could migrate only part of the way. And as monarchs help plants by carrying pollen from one flower to another, losing their migration would also mean losing an amazing natural event. “If we lose these groups of monarchs that migrate, we can never get them back,” Altizer says. 32. What does paragraph 2 focus on? A. The process of the experiment. B. The principle of dividing monarchs. C. The challenges of conducting the experiment. D. The specific results observed from the experiment. 33. Which of the following matches the team’s findings? A. Male monarchs die more easily than female ones. B. Warmer climate may make monarchs lay eggs early. C. Food sources come before temperatures for monarchs. D. Nothing along the journey can stop monarchs migrating. 34. What’s Altizer’s attitude towards monarchs’ migration? A. Hopeful. B. Uncaring. C. Worried. D. Unclear. 35. Which of the following is the most suitable title for the text? A. The Approach to Protecting Monarch Butterflies B. Monarch Butterflies’ Migration Path Across North America C. Temperature’s Influence on Migration of Monarch Butterflies D. The Life Differences Among Monarch Butterfly Generations 【答案】32. A 33. B 34. C 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章围绕北美帝王蝶，阐述其数量下降情况，详述Fedorka团队针对温度对帝王蝶影响的实验过程与发现，并提及专家对帝王蝶迁徙可能消失的担忧。 【32题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“To test this hypothesis (假设), Fedorka and his team collected nearly 500 wild monarchs before their migration in autumn and divided them into two groups. In the lab, they placed the two groups in migration-path temperature extremes — 23℃ and 19℃, based on 70 years of data. After 26 days, survivors were put into conditions that copied winter.(为了验证这一假设，费多克及其团队在秋季迁徙前收集了近500只野生帝王蝶，并将它们分成两组。在实验室中，他们根据70年的数据，将这两组蝴蝶置于迁徙路径所处温度的极端环境中——23摄氏度和19摄氏度。26天后，存活下来的蝴蝶被置于与冬季相似的环境中)”可知，本段主要描述了实验的具体实施过程。故选A。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The team found the monarchs that had been in the warmer temperature started laying eggs early — even when there was no milkweed around, the plant where monarchs lay their eggs and on which their young feed.(研究小组发现，那些处于较高温度环境中的帝王蝶开始产卵的时间明显提前了——即便周围没有马利筋（帝王蝶产卵及幼虫进食的植物）存在)”可知，温暖的气候可能会促使帝王蝶提前产卵，与该团队的研究结果相符。故选B。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Sonia Altizer, an expert who studies insects, notes that monarchs’ habit of stopping their trip south when it’s warm means they might one day stop migrating completely. Or, they could migrate only part of the way. And as monarchs help plants by carrying pollen from one flower to another, losing their migration would also mean losing an amazing natural event. “If we lose these groups of monarchs that migrate, we can never get them back,” Altizer says.(研究昆虫的专家索尼娅·阿尔蒂泽指出，帝王蝶在天气转暖时会停止向南迁徙的这一习惯意味着，它们或许有一天会完全停止迁徙。或者，它们可能只完成一部分的迁徙路程。而且由于帝王蝶能够将花粉从一朵花传播到另一朵花，因此失去它们的迁徙行为也将意味着失去一场了不起的自然奇观。“如果我们失去了这些进行迁徙的帝王蝶群体，我们就永远无法再得到它们了，”阿尔蒂泽说道)”可知，Altizer指出，温暖环境下帝王蝶可能“完全停止迁徙”或者“仅部分迁徙”，且强调“失去迁徙的帝王蝶群体就再也无法恢复”，同时提到帝王蝶迁徙是“令人惊叹的自然现象”，其语气中充满对帝王蝶迁徙行为消失的担忧。故选C。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。全文围绕“温度对帝王蝶迁徙的影响”展开：首先提出“气候变化导致的温度升高可能是帝王蝶数量下降的原因，但此前无针对性研究”；接着详细描述验证该假设的实验过程及结果（温暖环境影响帝王蝶产卵时间、存活率和迁徙意愿）；最后提及实验结果的延伸意义（可能导致帝王蝶迁徙行为改变）。C选项“温度对帝王蝶迁徙的影响”最符合文章标题。故选C。 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。 Take a Thought Walk Have you ever considered when you get your best ideas? Or what you’re doing when the solution to a problem pops into your head? ___36___ But it could also be doing something unrelated, like taking a shower or washing the dishes. The best ideas can land when you least expect them — but there are things you can do to help them along, and here’s where walking comes in. Even a quick walk can reduce stress, clarify thinking or give your creativity a boost. Here’s why you should put your best foot forward. ___37___ Michelle, a 21-year-old university student, discovered walking as a teen when she was going through a tough period of stress. “My mum loves walking, so it was her who first suggested I go out for a walk,” she remembers. “Within about 10 minutes it made me feel so much better.” The benefit of walking goes beyond calming — it opens mental ability. Gillian Mills, a high school teacher with 20 years of classroom experience, explains, “When students feel too stressed to think straight, we often suggest a walk outside. ___38___ Just picture stress like a balloon blowing up. It fills with air and pressure builds. Walking and taking big breaths of fresh air are like gently letting the pressure out.” ___39___ It lets you focus partly, letting you notice your surroundings while your mind wanders in new directions. Whether you’re revising for an exam, feeling stuck on a school project or working through a friendship problem, going for a walk could help. Stanford University confirms this effect. They found a clear link between walking and creative thinking. ____40____ This suggests that it increases what the experts call “divergent thinking” — the process where the mind generates a wide range of possible ideas or solutions to a problem. A. It helps clear your head for new thoughts. B. Many experts believe walking improves mental health. C. Critically, walking occupies just enough attention, but not all. D. Some people find their best ideas come when relaxing quietly. E. Proof for walking’s calming power comes from lived experience. F. It might be sitting at your desk in school or working at a computer. G. Participants in a study increased their brainstorming by 60% during/after walks. 【答案】36. F 37. E 38. A 39. C 40.

(你是否想过，你最好的想法是什么时候产生的？或者当问题的解决方案突然出现在你的脑海中时，你正在做什么？)”以及下文“But it could also be doing something unrelated, like taking a shower or washing the dishes. (但也可能是在做一些不相关的事情，比如洗澡或洗碗。)”可知，本空需要列举一种常见的、与后文“不相关的事情”形成对比的、可能产生好想法的情境。F选项“It might be sitting at your desk in school or working at a computer. (可能是在学校坐在书桌前或是在电脑前工作。)”能承上启下，符合题意，该选项中的“sitting at your desk”or“working at a computer”是上文问题的具体回答，与下文的“doing something unrelated(做一些不相关的事情)”通过“But”形成转折关系。故选F。 【37题详解】 由下文“Michelle, a 21-year-old university student, discovered walking as a teen when she was going through a tough period of stress.(米歇尔，一名21岁的大学生，在青少年时期经历了一段压力很大的时期时发现了散步的好处。)” 及米歇尔所说的“Within about 10 minutes it made me feel so much better.

(当学生们压力过大、无法清晰思考时，我们经常建议他们到外面散步。)”以及下文“Just picture stress like a balloon blowing up. It fills with air and pressure builds. Walking and taking big breaths of fresh air are like gently letting the pressure out. (就把压力想象成一个正在充气的气球。空气不断涌入，压力持续累积。而散步和深呼吸新鲜空气就像轻轻地释放压力。)”可知，本空需要解释散步如何帮助缓解压力、理清思维。A选项“It helps clear your head for new thoughts. (它有助于清空你的头脑，为新的想法腾出空间。)”能承上启下，符合题意，其中“It”指代上文的“a walk outside”，且该选项中的“clear your head”解释了散步如何对抗压力、帮助思考，与下文的气球压力释放比喻相呼应。故选A。 【39题详解】 由下文“It lets you focus partly, letting you notice your surroundings while your mind wanders in new directions. (它让你能够部分集中注意力，让你在注意到周围环境的同时，思绪也能在新的方向上漫游。)”可知，本空需要引出散步在注意力分配方面的独特作用。C选项“Critically, walking occupies just enough attention, but not all. (关键是，散步只占用适量的注意力，而非全部。)”能衔接下文，符合题意，其中“occupies just enough attention, but not all(只占用适量的注意力，而非全部)”与下文的“focus partly(部分集中注意力)”相呼应。故选C。 【40题详解】 由上文“Stanford University confirms this effect. They found a clear link between walking and creative thinking. (斯坦福大学证实了这一效果。他们发现散步和创造性思维之间有明显的联系。)”以及下文“This suggests that it increases what the experts call ‘divergent thinking’ (这表明它增加了专家们所说的‘发散性思维’)”可知，本空需要提供斯坦福大学研究的具体发现或数据来证明这种联系。G选项“Participants in a study increased their brainstorming by 60% during/after walks.

Ever since primary school, I would sink into my seat whenever the teacher asked a question, praying not to be called on. It was not that I had nothing to say — quite the opposite. I often had answers in mind, but the moment I thought about speaking up, my throat would tighten and my hands would go cold and wet. What if I was wrong? What if the whole class laughed at me? This fear followed me into high school like a shadow. During discussions, my classmates would raise their hands eagerly, debating and disagreeing with confidence. I, on the other hand, would sit motionless, with my eyes fixed on my notebook, writing down the thoughts I would never share. My best friend, Mia, kept encouraging me. “You know the stuff,” she would say. “Just give it a try.” But her words, though kind, changed nothing. Even when I was genuinely confused about a lesson, I refused to raise my hand or approach the teacher afterward. I convinced myself that I could manage alone. The consequence caught up with me last month during the mid-term physics exam. Staring at a whole section on a topic I had quietly struggled with, I felt my stomach drop. When the scores were posted, my physics grade had dropped by nearly twenty points. After class, Mr. Chen asked me to stay behind. He studied my paper for a moment, and then looked up. “You are one of the brightest students I know,” he said quietly. “Your problem is not lack of ability. It is the wall of silence that you have built around yourself.” 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。 Struck by Mr. Chen’s words, I realized it was time to break my silence. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Little by little, my efforts to find my voice in class paid off. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 Struck by Mr. Chen’s words, I realized it was time to break my silence. The next morning, I gathered all my courage and went to Mr. Chen’s office to ask about the confusing physics points. Though my voice trembled at first, I finished my question with his patient look. After that, I practiced expressing my ideas to Mia after class every day, and set a small goal to raise my hand at least once a week. I even repeated answers aloud to myself to build up confidence. Little by little, my efforts to find my voice in class paid off. I gradually dared to speak up in class discussions, and my physics grade climbed back steadily. When I volunteered to share my problem-solving idea in front of the whole class one day, I saw Mr. Chen nod approvingly and Mia give me a proud smile. I have learned that silence is never real safety. Stepping out of my comfort zone and speaking up is the real way to grow and make progress. 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了作者课堂上一向内向胆怯，心中虽有答案却不敢举手发言，害怕出错被嘲笑。好友Mia不断鼓励她，但她依旧保持沉默。物理期中考试成绩大幅下滑，陈老师点破她的问题不是能力不足，而是自我封闭。作者深受触动，鼓起勇气向老师请教，坚持练习表达，慢慢敢于课堂发言，成绩回升，领悟走出舒适区才能成长。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写作者举手发言前内心紧张忐忑，反复深呼吸，克服内心恐惧，大胆说出自己的想法。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写发言结束后，收获老师和同学肯定，作者内心充满成就感，明白勇敢表达的意义。 2.续写线索：课堂胆怯→心中有想法不敢发言→好友鼓励→独自硬扛→考试失利→老师点拨→鼓起勇气请教→坚持练习表达→敢于课堂发言→感悟成长 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①走出：step out of/take one's trip out ②看到：see/catch sight of 情绪类 ①自信：confidence/self-assurance ②赞同地：approvingly/favourably 【点睛】[高分句型1] Though my voice trembled at first, I finished my question with his patient look.（运用了though引导让步状语从句） [高分句型2] Stepping out of my comfort zone and speaking up is the real way to grow and make progress.（运用了动名词作主语和不定式作定语） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $这是英语科听力部分，请看听力部分第一节。第一节听下面五段录音，每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音播放两遍。现在你有5秒钟的时间阅读第一小题的有关内容。听下面的录音，回答第一小题。Excuse me, what's the time buyer . watch half past ten, but it's ten minutes slow.

Some are even trying to find more ways to bring the urban population into contact with nature. Mad architects is one of those companies that are trying to take Green designs to a new level. The company believes in the importance of making buildings that can produce their own power and food. They believe the buildings should also recycle all of their waste. The new designs make people living and working in these buildings think about being outside. They feel like they're reconnecting with the natural world. Instead of being far apart from that, the company believes this way of thinking is very important for the future of urban living. One of mad's newest projects is called the urban forest designed for the city of chunking. There will be offices, open spaces, balconies with trees and many plants throughout. The project is inspired by the mountains, chinese landscape and the traditional villages built on the hillside. IT will be an urban engineering wonder. Architects who are interested in working on the urban forest should apply at the mad offices in beijing, new york or room.

But these days its cultural scene is also growing rapidly. In this city of rivers and lakes, you can go for a swim in nature, visit many art galleries, and try new kinds of food, all in one day. Getting there & around British Airways, EasyJet, Edelweiss Air and Swiss fly to Zurich from UK airports including Edinburgh, Gatwick, Heathrow, Luton, Manchester and Stansted. The train from London St Pancras International to Zurich takes 6 hours and 55 minutes, which is a shorter time compared to any other train rides, but it includes a change of stations in Paris. And the average flight time is 1 hour and 45 minutes. It’s easy to explore Zurich’s attractions on foot or by using the quick, safe and clean public transport system. You can catch a tram (电车), train, bus or boat at most times of day easily. A 24-hour travel card for use in central Zurich costs £8.30. Trams and buses run from 1 am to 6 am. When to go Zurich is worth visiting all the year round. Winter and early spring see cold days with snow-covered hills and ice skating — with average temperatures around 4℃ to 6℃, while summer brings averages of 25℃ to 28℃, which means open bathing beaches and most of the city’s festivals. Autumn, cooler at around 15℃, is the season for Zurich wine. Every October, there are tastings, master classes and networking sessions related to wine. Where to stay 25 Hours Hotel Langstrasse. Doubles from £140. La Réserve Eden au Lac Zurich. Doubles from £240. How to do it Switzerland Travel Centre offers a three-day tour package — two nights in a three-star hotel in Zurich, including a 72-hour Zurich Card for transport and discounts on attractions, £230 per person, B&B. Flights not included. 21. What can be learned about the travel from the UK to Zurich? A. Transport choices are limited. B. There isn’t any direct flight. C. Taking a boat is the best option. D. The fastest train doesn’t go straight through. 22. Which season is the best to go to Zurich for a festival-goer? A. Spring. B. Summer. C. Autumn. D. Winter. 23. How much should a couple pay if they book the three-day tour package? A. £480. B. £460. C. £230. D. £140. B Steve Clark, 45, a musician from Surrey, battled a fear of swimming for most of his life. As a child, he never took to the water. “It always bothered me. I used to look at people swimming on holiday, and think that I was missing out on the enjoyment of it,” he says. One bad experience when he was on a business trip in his twenties set Clark back even further. He decided to take a dip in a hotel pool, thinking that it wouldn’t be that difficult. This led to a panic moment after he lost his footing in the deep end of the pool. “I was extremely scared that I couldn’t swim,” he says. But in 2014 Clark decided to take the plunge — after all, he was “running out of excuses” not to. Helped by the gentle encouragement of his partner, he completed 10 beginners’ lessons. “It was difficult to start with. My main fear was putting my head under the water, but the instructors taught me a technique to help. Once I learnt how to do it, it got me over the fear,” he says. The swimming lessons allowed him to participate in something that always felt impossible. Clark’s story shows that midlife (中年) is as good a time as any to learn. A study in 2018 by Columbia University found that healthy older men and women can generate just as many new brain cells as younger people. “We used to think of getting older as a loss: a time when we lose skills and lose our looks. But so much research has shown that losing your abilities is not unavoidable,” says Linda Blair, a psychologist. She explains that learning skills can help to keep our brains young. “The brain is like a muscle, so when you learn something new, you’re exercising it and getting better blood flow to the brain. You’re also reestablishing connections; you don’t have to lose a skill forever, you can regain it.” 24. What initially bothered Clark according to the passage? A. His panic in a hotel pool. B. His lack of encouragement. C. His failure in a business trip. D. His inability to enjoy swimming. 25. What does the underlined phrase “take the plunge” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Accept the fact. B. Have a go. C. Avoid the risk. D. Realize his dream. 26. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs? A. Being old does not necessarily mean losing skills. B. People can easily learn new skills at any stage of life. C. Building up muscles can help blood flow into the brain. D. Seniors can produce as many new brain cells as youths. 27. What does Clark’s experience show? A. No pains, no gains. B. Every dog has its day. C. Practice makes perfect. D. It’s never too old to learn. C While most musicians work with other artists when creating their music, Holly Herndon, an American musician and sound artist who is now based in Berlin, takes a different way, working with the machine learning software called Spawn. The software uses artificial neural (人工神经的) networks modeled after the structure of the human brain. These networks learn patterns from datasets during the training process. Based on the data, the networks create new material that includes Herndon’s own voice. When producing her album, PROTO, Holly trained datasets to write new music. The process requires the input data of music written by people or by artificial intelligence (AI). The neural networks then produce variations of that music. “Computers surprise you in a way that an instrument doesn’t,” Holly said. So what does music sound like when composed by what is essentially a robot? It sounds like music from the future! But Holly Herndon isn’t the only one exploring AI in composition. Machines have played an increasingly important role in music over the last century. The father of computer science, Alan Turing, developed the first computer-generated music in 1951. Then in 1980, David Cope from the University of California, Santa Cruz, developed EMI — Experiments in Musical Intelligence, a system that analyzes existing music and produces new pieces based on it. AI might not take over the job of the “pop star” anytime soon, or will it? Miquela Sousa is a computer-generated artist with over one million followers on Instagram. “I’m a model and singer, and I’m a robot,” Miquela said. This then raises the question: can we reproduce creativity using a computer? Though those questions are not easy to answer, I believe the next frontier of music lies somewhere in between. I can see the path forward with a new dawn of creativity that combines human inventiveness with AI. And the next chapter of music will certainly become wonderful as music and AI become even more closely connected. 28. What plays an important role in producing PROTO? A. Holly’s special voice. B. Holly’s rich knowledge. C. The input of existing music. D. The use of an instrument. 29. What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. The recent famous music artists. B. The increasing diversity of AI music. C. The development of computer science. D. The history of computer-generated music. 30. Why does the author mention the example of Miquela Sousa? A. To show the popularity of smart robots. B. To promote deep thinking on AI musicians. C. To explain the tasks of computer-generated artists. D. To make comparisons between human and robotic artists. 31. What is the author’s attitude towards music co-created by AI and humans? A. Confident. B. Surprised. C. Confused. D. Doubtful. D In North America, monarch butterflies (帝王蝶) live about a month, but the last generation of the year, the ones that migrate (迁徙) south, can live around eight months. Since the 1990s, monarch populations have dropped, particularly at overwintering sites and populations found east of the Rocky Mountains have reduced by around 80 percent. Researchers think that higher temperatures caused by climate change could be a reason. But until now, no studies have specifically looked at that. To test this hypothesis (假设), Fedorka and his team collected nearly 500 wild monarchs before their migration in autumn and divided them into two groups. In the lab, they placed the two groups in migration-path temperature extremes — 23℃ and 19℃, based on 70 years of data. After 26 days, survivors were put into conditions that copied winter. The team found the monarchs that had been in the warmer temperature started laying eggs early — even when there was no milkweed around, the plant where monarchs lay their eggs and on which their young feed. “These monarchs are ready to drop out of migration at any moment,” Fedorka says. The team also found that male monarchs from the warmer group were 88 percent more likely to die than those from the colder group. Both male and female monarchs that had experienced warmer temperatures during their trip had a 28 percent higher risk of dying during winter—no matter what the winter temperatures were. The team admits that further research is needed to see how the results apply in the wild. Sonia Altizer, an expert who studies insects, notes that monarchs’ habit of stopping their trip south when it’s warm means they might one day stop migrating completely. Or, they could migrate only part of the way. And as monarchs help plants by carrying pollen from one flower to another, losing their migration would also mean losing an amazing natural event. “If we lose these groups of monarchs that migrate, we can never get them back,” Altizer says. 32. What does paragraph 2 focus on? A. The process of the experiment. B. The principle of dividing monarchs. C. The challenges of conducting the experiment. D. The specific results observed from the experiment. 33. Which of the following matches the team’s findings? A. Male monarchs die more easily than female ones. B. Warmer climate may make monarchs lay eggs early. C. Food sources come before temperatures for monarchs. D. Nothing along the journey can stop monarchs migrating. 34. What’s Altizer’s attitude towards monarchs’ migration? A. Hopeful. B. Uncaring. C. Worried. D. Unclear. 35. Which of the following is the most suitable title for the text? A. The Approach to Protecting Monarch Butterflies B. Monarch Butterflies’ Migration Path Across North America C. Temperature’s Influence on Migration of Monarch Butterflies D. The Life Differences Among Monarch Butterfly Generations 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。 Take a Thought Walk Have you ever considered when you get your best ideas? Or what you’re doing when the solution to a problem pops into your head? ___36___ But it could also be doing something unrelated, like taking a shower or washing the dishes. The best ideas can land when you least expect them — but there are things you can do to help them along, and here’s where walking comes in. Even a quick walk can reduce stress, clarify thinking or give your creativity a boost. Here’s why you should put your best foot forward. ___37___ Michelle, a 21-year-old university student, discovered walking as a teen when she was going through a tough period of stress. “My mum loves walking, so it was her who first suggested I go out for a walk,” she remembers. “Within about 10 minutes it made me feel so much better.” The benefit of walking goes beyond calming — it opens mental ability. Gillian Mills, a high school teacher with 20 years of classroom experience, explains, “When students feel too stressed to think straight, we often suggest a walk outside. ___38___ Just picture stress like a balloon blowing up. It fills with air and pressure builds. Walking and taking big breaths of fresh air are like gently letting the pressure out.” ___39___ It lets you focus partly, letting you notice your surroundings while your mind wanders in new directions. Whether you’re revising for an exam, feeling stuck on a school project or working through a friendship problem, going for a walk could help. Stanford University confirms this effect. They found a clear link between walking and creative thinking. ____40____ This suggests that it increases what the experts call “divergent thinking” — the process where the mind generates a wide range of possible ideas or solutions to a problem. A. It helps clear your head for new thoughts. B. Many experts believe walking improves mental health. C. Critically, walking occupies just enough attention, but not all. D. Some people find their best ideas come when relaxing quietly. E. Proof for walking’s calming power comes from lived experience. F. It might be sitting at your desk in school or working at a computer. G. Participants in a study increased their brainstorming by 60% during/after walks. 第三部分 语言运用（共三节，满分40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。 My grandpa’s wisdom has been the guiding light through my life’s journey.

Ever since primary school, I would sink into my seat whenever the teacher asked a question, praying not to be called on. It was not that I had nothing to say — quite the opposite. I often had answers in mind, but the moment I thought about speaking up, my throat would tighten and my hands would go cold and wet. What if I was wrong? What if the whole class laughed at me? This fear followed me into high school like a shadow. During discussions, my classmates would raise their hands eagerly, debating and disagreeing with confidence. I, on the other hand, would sit motionless, with my eyes fixed on my notebook, writing down the thoughts I would never share. My best friend, Mia, kept encouraging me. “You know the stuff,” she would say. “Just give it a try.” But her words, though kind, changed nothing. Even when I was genuinely confused about a lesson, I refused to raise my hand or approach the teacher afterward. I convinced myself that I could manage alone. The consequence caught up with me last month during the mid-term physics exam. Staring at a whole section on a topic I had quietly struggled with, I felt my stomach drop. When the scores were posted, my physics grade had dropped by nearly twenty points. After class, Mr. Chen asked me to stay behind. He studied my paper for a moment, and then looked up. “You are one of the brightest students I know,” he said quietly. “Your problem is not lack of ability. It is the wall of silence that you have built around yourself.” 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。 Struck by Mr. Chen’s words, I realized it was time to break my silence. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Little by little, my efforts to find my voice in class paid off. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
