第二部分 阅读理解(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
You be the judge: should my phone-addicted friend go on a mobile detox (戒断)?
The prosecution (控方): James
My housemate and best friend spends every waking minute on TikTok. I know she works in social media, but she’s now seriously addicted to it, even after she’s clocked of. Besides, she needs to stop playing videos loudly around the house when I’m watching TV.
The defence: Marley
My job means I have to be on the ball with what’s trending online. I think James is jealous because he’s got a rather boring job in accounting. I don’t go around playing videos at full volume all the time; I think that’s only happened a handful of times. He’s exaggerating (夸张) there.
The jury (陪审团) of Guardian readers
While Marley’s use of TikTok may seem excessive to some, ultimately it is up to her how she chooses to use her time. If James can’t accept that, he should move out.
Margo, 29
Marley needs to put her phone down, live in the moment and think less about her social media presence. She is guilty of not valuing an honest friend because she thinks a better life awaits her on TikTok.
Stewart, 35
As a fellow phone addict, I do have sympathy for Marley. However, it’s more than a little rude to have the sound turned on while watching TV together.
Peter, 40
The excessive use of social media is a crime and reflects poor control over social habits. Marley needs to be more considerate of others.
Steve, 6
Now you be the-judge
In our reader feedback section, tell us: should Marley get off TikTok and get a life?
1. What is Marley’s reason for spending time on TikTok?
A. She finds an accounting job dull. B. She enjoys sharing popular videos.
C. She needs to stay updated on online trends. D. She prefers avoiding interaction with James.
2. Who is fully on Marley’s side?
A. Margo. B. Stewart. C. Peter. D. Steve.

C. A lifestyle survey. D. An interactive column.

Jim Cantore is a beloved meteorologist (气象学家) for The Weather Channel, known for reporting from the center of hurricanes, tornadoes, and other extreme events. He recently celebrated 40 years at the network.
“I’m blessed The Weather Channel has given me the opportunity to do that,” Cantore says. “Nothing beats going out in the field. That is the real storm. You’re in it. You’re a part of it. You tell the story.”
Advances in broadcasting technology have greatly changed field reporting. Live cameras now allow crews to broadcast without setting up the large satellite dishes used during Hurricane Katrina. Cantore says that continuous live coverage has made his job more demanding, but it also keeps him fully engaged in the moment.
The first hurricane Cantore covered was Andrew in 1992. About 115 storms later, he covered Hurricane Milton. Yet he does not keep souvenirs to mark each storm. “I’m not a collector. I’m blessed I just got to do this job.” One thing he can’t do is just go on air and deliver a forecast without preparation. He has to study the weather carefully and understand the conditions for himself.
Cantore considers his laptop the most essential piece of equipment he carries. If he’s out standing in the middle of a storm, he wears a helmet and body armor (胸甲). He never wants to be the story. “Who will come to get me? And why should anyone have to, especially when I’m telling people to stay out of harm’s way? I have to do everything I can to broadcast and not get hurt.”
A couple of months ago there were people saying Cantore was retiring. He has set the record straight since, branding it “fake news”. “I still get a little pump. It’s still fun to be out in the middle of it.”
4. What does Cantore enjoy most about his work?
A. Reporting directly from the field.
B. Celebrating major career milestones.
C. Developing new broadcasting equipment.
D. Checking the accuracy of weather forecasts.
5. What does Cantore’s comment that he is “not a collector” suggest?
A. He cares more about the experience itself.
B. He is not interested in how storms develop.
C. He sees every storm as a personal achievement.
D. He has forgotten most of the storms he covered.
6. Cantore’s wish not to “be the story” shows that he is ________.
A. easy-going
B. strong-willed
C. safety-conscious
D. attention-seeking
7. What is the best title for the text?
A. The Life of a Forecaster
B. A Storm-Tracking Legend
C. A Story from The Weather Channel
D. The Most Dangerous Job in America
C
On a warm and damp June morning, Emily Bick winds through a field of knee-high corn. It feels like that quiet, expectation-filled moment before a concert: Tech people are setting up microphones, connecting wires. The star of this particular show is the microphone itself. Research assistants are attaching it to the corn stalks (茎), an innovation that Bick named the Insect Eavesdropper (窃听器).
Bick, an insect scientist, researches ways to better detect the agricultural pests that drive serious economic losses worldwide. She says improving these methods could result in using pesticides more strategically — less often, at just the right time. Corn rootworm, also known as the “billion-dollar bug,” feeds on corn roots, limiting the plant’s nutrient supply and making stalks fall over. As a result, 20% of the crop is lost to the insect every year. Worse still, climate change is bringing new challenges, such as the multiplication of insects in warmer temperatures. In our global society, experts say rapid pest detection will be critical to food production.
Bick’s solution to the problem of pest detection is sound: Eavesdropping on the unique vibrations (震动) that an insect makes when chewing on a plant to identify the insect itself. The Insect Eavesdropper uses a contact microphone, an affordable device that musicians often use on instruments. A little disc sits on a solid object — like corn — and captures the vibrations moving through it, registering each one with an electrical signal. “When corn rootworm feeds on the roots, the vibration translates from the root system to the stalk,” Bick says. “That’s where we’re picking it up. We’re using the plant as the musical instrument, as essentially the outside of a guitar.”
Bick and her colleagues’ findings aren’t published yet, but as of now, their detection method is anywhere from 80% to 96% accurate. The team are still working on the data-processing pipeline, but hope they can get the Insect Eavesdropper on the shelf in a couple of years. Their goal is to advance pest detection — and maybe inspire people to listen to everything a little closer.
8. What is Bick’s purpose in working in the corn field?
A. To prepare for a concert. B. To arrange for a study.
C. To make the show special. D. To innovate planting ways.
9. Why is corn rootworm named “billion-dollar bug”?
A. Its nutrient is rich. B. It causes great loss.
C. Its number is limited. D. It brings huge profits.
10. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. The corn. B. The signal. C. The system. D. The vibration.
11. Which of the following words can best describe the Insect Eavesdropper?
A. Perfect. B. Inspiring. C. Promising. D. Purchasable.
D
Artificial empathy (AE) is becoming measurable. In an analysis of 15 studies, AI outperformed humans in perceived empathy in 13 of the 15, with an effect size of 0.87 — clinically meaningful. Patients reported feeling understood by systems that cannot feel. Then came a JAMA Internal Medicine study: nearly 200 real-world patient questions, chatbot versus physician. The machine’s responses were rated higher in both quality and empathy; in nearly 80% of cases, its tone was preferred.
This is not AI “catching up” with humans. It is a deeper inversion (反转) — anti-intelligence taking emotional form. AE is empathy without empathy: an echo of care produced by syntax (句法), not sentiment. Human empathy is born in uncertainty — in pauses, in stumbles, and in the uneasy reality of life itself. It is the physician who knows illness through experience, the nurse who learns through a child’s pain — AI erases that friction, replacing it with flawless linguistic precision. The result feels better because it is frictionless. Anti-intelligence is fluent not in doubt, but in confidence — and that confidence now wears compassion’s mask.
We are moved not by what AI feels, but by what it sounds like it feels. Our minds interpret acknowledgment and reassurance as empathy; when AI delivers those consistently, we project depth where none exists. The empathy lives in us, not in the machine. Yet the physiology is real — blood pressure drops, anxiety lessens — while the machine feels nothing.
This intersection gives us functional empathy: a practical indicator that can be improved, standardized, and prescribed. Once empathy is reproducible through data, its moral core — the shared awareness of another’s suffering — becomes dangerously optional. Institutions may replace human compassion with artificial ones, for machines never tire; they deliver the same emotional temperature at midnight as at noon. If empathy is measured only by outcomes, who needs awareness?
Perhaps we will need two kinds of empathy going forward: the functional and the felt. One delivers measurable relief; the other sustains meaning. Artificial empathy has crossed from technological imitation to clinical instrument — and it works precisely because it bypasses the fragile, wonderful interior of human emotion. Anti-intelligence is not the absence of thought or care; it is their mechanical perfection. Empathy is freed from uncertainty and consciousness is replaced by correlation. The performance works, but the feeling disappears.
12. What does paragraph 1 reveal about perceived empathy?
A. A detailed definition of the concept. B. Wide applications of AE in daily life.
C. Improved interaction among patients. D. Advantages of AI over human beings.
13. What causes patients’ physical relief from AI’s response?
A. Improved medical treatment. B. True emotional compassion from AI.
C. Patients’ subjective perception. D. Growing awareness of human suffering.
14. What did the author say about functional empathy?
A. It ignores human prescription. B. It standardizes inner awareness.
C. It lacks genuine inner emotion. D. It works better than human care.
15. What does the author mainly argue about artificial empathy?
A. Showing human empathy is more reliable.
B. Relieving patients while lacking true feeling.
C. Banning artificial empathy for deceiving patients.
D. Delivering measurable relief through flawless language.

How to Be a Mountain Climber
Standing on a high mountain peak can be one of the most rewarding experiences on Earth. But reaching one requires much more than determination. It demands physical fitness, proper gear (装备) and respect for nature’s power. ___16___
Before attempting a mountain climb, you need to get your body ready. ___17___ Long-distance hiking strengthens your legs and builds endurance. Regular running prepares your heart and lungs for long climbs. Start with low-altitude (低海拔的) day hikes and gradually increase the distance and altitude.
Proper boots and clothing are also essential for safe climbing. Tough, waterproof mountain boots protect your feet from sharp rocks and keep them dry in wet conditions. ___18___ In addition, dress in layers made of wool or other insulating (保温的) materials rather than cotton, which stays wet and can leave you cold.
___19___ Conditions in the mountains can change rapidly. Bright sunshine may give way to heavy rain, thick fog or heavy snow within hours. Check local weather forecasts before departure and prepare a backup plan in case conditions worsen.
Beginners must also watch for altitude sickness. At high altitudes, thinner air can cause headaches or tiredness. ___20___ Never climb too quickly. Move slowly and rest frequently as you gain altitude. Descend immediately if the symptoms become severe.
Mountain climbing rewards patience and careful planning. Reaching the summit is exciting, but returning safely is the real goal.
A. Break them in on short walks before a major climb.
B. The safest approach is to give your body time to adjust.
C. Sound judgment about the weather is equally important.
D. Physical training is the foundation of safe mountain climbing.
E. This means mountain climbing is mainly a test of physical strength.
F. Suitable clothing can reduce the need to plan carefully for bad weather.
G. Therefore, climbers should never set out without thorough preparation.

52. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My biggest fear has always been public speaking. At 7 years old, the worst thing my parents could ask of me was to talk to someone outside of my immediate family, and presenting in front of my class was a nightmare.
As I grew up, I started to notice my fear was affecting my health and social life. I was only 14, yet the idea of a class presentation made me lose sleep and I had a hard time meeting new people and making friends.
I felt upset. It seemed impossible for me to get over such fear. I admitted defeat and made peace with knowing I just wasn’t good at public speaking. Deep down I knew it wasn’t a permanent fact — I was always just too scared to try.
Two shameful years went by and just when I thought I was fine with my inability to communicate in front of people, my school announced the start of that year’s Model United Nations competition. Model UN consisted of several mock trials during a week-long span, where students would assume a role and debate in front of others.
My friends had been a part of Model UN for years and had the best times when they participated. I wanted to join, but I knew I would freeze on the spot. I was tired of missing out on moments with my friends, so I made an impulsive (冲动的) out-of-character decision and joined the club at the last minute.
The first day was the worst. I was assigned an important role, and the debate would have been dull if I didn’t participate, so I tried my best to say something.
When I stood up to read my opening speech, I froze. I imagined that moment many times, and I was hoping I’d suddenly be able to speak clearly, but the reality was far off from my dream. I didn’t pronounce a single word clearly and nobody understood my argument.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右。
2.请在答题卡上按照以下格式作答。
The committee’s president saw how scared I was and she encouraged me to speak.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
By the end of the week, I was finally able to stand up and speak like I had always wanted to.

Jim Cantore is a beloved meteorologist (气象学家) for The Weather Channel, known for reporting from the center of hurricanes, tornadoes, and other extreme events. He recently celebrated 40 years at the network.
“I’m blessed The Weather Channel has given me the opportunity to do that,” Cantore says. “Nothing beats going out in the field. That is the real storm. You’re in it. You’re a part of it. You tell the story.”
Advances in broadcasting technology have greatly changed field reporting. Live cameras now allow crews to broadcast without setting up the large satellite dishes used during Hurricane Katrina. Cantore says that continuous live coverage has made his job more demanding, but it also keeps him fully engaged in the moment.
The first hurricane Cantore covered was Andrew in 1992. About 115 storms later, he covered Hurricane Milton. Yet he does not keep souvenirs to mark each storm. “I’m not a collector. I’m blessed I just got to do this job.” One thing he can’t do is just go on air and deliver a forecast without preparation. He has to study the weather carefully and understand the conditions for himself.
Cantore considers his laptop the most essential piece of equipment he carries. If he’s out standing in the middle of a storm, he wears a helmet and body armor (胸甲). He never wants to be the story. “Who will come to get me? And why should anyone have to, especially when I’m telling people to stay out of harm’s way? I have to do everything I can to broadcast and not get hurt.”
A couple of months ago there were people saying Cantore was retiring. He has set the record straight since, branding it “fake news”. “I still get a little pump. It’s still fun to be out in the middle of it.”
4. What does Cantore enjoy most about his work?
A. Reporting directly from the field.
B. Celebrating major career milestones.
C. Developing new broadcasting equipment.
D. Checking the accuracy of weather forecasts.
5. What does Cantore’s comment that he is “not a collector” suggest?
A. He cares more about the experience itself.
B. He is not interested in how storms develop.
C. He sees every storm as a personal achievement.
D. He has forgotten most of the storms he covered.
6. Cantore’s wish not to “be the story” shows that he is ________.
A. easy-going
B. strong-willed
C. safety-conscious
D. attention-seeking
7. What is the best title for the text?
A. The Life of a Forecaster
B. A Storm-Tracking Legend
C. A Story from The Weather Channel
D. The Most Dangerous Job in America
【答案】4. A 5. A 6. C 7. B
【解析】
【导语】文章主要讲述了气象学家Jim Cantore四十年坚守风暴现场报道的经历,展现了他对这份工作的热爱与敬业。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中Cantore的话“Nothing beats going out in the field. That is the real storm. You’re in it. You’re a part of it. You tell the story.(没有什么比亲临现场更好的了。那才是真正的风暴。你在其中。你是它的一部分。你讲述这个故事。)”可知,Cantore最喜欢的是直接在现场进行报道。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“Yet he does not keep souvenirs to mark each storm. “I’m not a collector. I’m blessed I just got to do this job.”(然而他并不保留纪念品来标记每一场风暴。“我不是收藏家。我很幸运能从事这份工作。”)”可知,Cantore说自己“不是收藏家”,表明他更在意经历本身,而非用纪念品去记录成就。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中“If he’s out standing in the middle of a storm, he wears a helmet and body armor (胸甲). He never wants to be the story. “Who will come to get me? And why should anyone have to, especially when I’m telling people to stay out of harm’s way? I have to do everything I can to broadcast and not get hurt.”(如果他要站在风暴中间,他会戴上头盔和胸甲。他从不想成为新闻本身。“谁会来救我?为什么非得有人来救我,尤其是我还在告诉人们远离危险的时候?我必须尽一切努力完成报道而不受伤。”)”可知,Cantore不想“成为新闻本身”表明他安全意识很强。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,结合第一段“Jim Cantore is a beloved meteorologist (气象学家) for The Weather Channel, known for reporting from the center of hurricanes, tornadoes, and other extreme events. He recently celebrated 40 years at the network.(Jim Cantore是The Weather Channel深受喜爱的气象学家,以从飓风、龙卷风和其他极端事件中心进行报道而闻名。他最近庆祝了在该电视网工作40年。)”以及最后一段“A couple of months ago there were people saying Cantore was retiring. He has set the record straight since, branding it “fake news”. “I still get a little pump. It’s still fun to be out in the middle of it.”(几个月前有人说Cantore要退休了。他此后澄清了这一点,称其为“假新闻”。“我仍然有点激动。身处其中仍然很有趣。”)”可知,全文围绕Cantore长期追踪风暴、坚守现场报道的传奇经历展开,B项“A Storm-Tracking Legend(一位追踪风暴的传奇人物)”最能概括文章内容,最适合做文章标题。
C
On a warm and damp June morning, Emily Bick winds through a field of knee-high corn. It feels like that quiet, expectation-filled moment before a concert: Tech people are setting up microphones, connecting wires. The star of this particular show is the microphone itself. Research assistants are attaching it to the corn stalks (茎), an innovation that Bick named the Insect Eavesdropper (窃听器).
Bick, an insect scientist, researches ways to better detect the agricultural pests that drive serious economic losses worldwide. She says improving these methods could result in using pesticides more strategically — less often, at just the right time. Corn rootworm, also known as the “billion-dollar bug,” feeds on corn roots, limiting the plant’s nutrient supply and making stalks fall over. As a result, 20% of the crop is lost to the insect every year. Worse still, climate change is bringing new challenges, such as the multiplication of insects in warmer temperatures. In our global society, experts say rapid pest detection will be critical to food production.
Bick’s solution to the problem of pest detection is sound: Eavesdropping on the unique vibrations (震动) that an insect makes when chewing on a plant to identify the insect itself. The Insect Eavesdropper uses a contact microphone, an affordable device that musicians often use on instruments. A little disc sits on a solid object — like corn — and captures the vibrations moving through it, registering each one with an electrical signal. “When corn rootworm feeds on the roots, the vibration translates from the root system to the stalk,” Bick says. “That’s where we’re picking it up. We’re using the plant as the musical instrument, as essentially the outside of a guitar.”
Bick and her colleagues’ findings aren’t published yet, but as of now, their detection method is anywhere from 80% to 96% accurate. The team are still working on the data-processing pipeline, but hope they can get the Insect Eavesdropper on the shelf in a couple of years. Their goal is to advance pest detection — and maybe inspire people to listen to everything a little closer.
8. What is Bick’s purpose in working in the corn field?
A. To prepare for a concert. B. To arrange for a study.
C. To make the show special. D. To innovate planting ways.
9. Why is corn rootworm named “billion-dollar bug”?
A. Its nutrient is rich. B. It causes great loss.
C. Its number is limited. D. It brings huge profits.
10. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. The corn. B. The signal. C. The system. D. The vibration.
11. Which of the following words can best describe the Insect Eavesdropper?
A. Perfect. B. Inspiring. C. Promising. D. Purchasable.
【答案】8. B 9. B 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种检测农业害虫的创新设备“昆虫窃听器”,解释了其工作原理和发展前景。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“On a warm and damp June morning, Emily Bick winds through a field of knee-high corn. It feels like that quiet, expectation-filled moment before a concert: Tech people are setting up microphones, connecting wires. The star of this particular show is the microphone itself. Research assistants are attaching it to the corn stalks (茎), an innovation that Bick named the Insect Eavesdropper (窃听器).(6月一个温暖潮湿的早晨,艾米丽·比克蜿蜒穿过一片及膝高的玉米地。这感觉就像音乐会前那种安静、充满期待的时刻:技术人员正在安装麦克风、连接电线。这个节目的主角是麦克风本身。研究助理正在将它附着在玉米秸秆上,比克将这项创新命名为‘昆虫窃听器’)”以及第二段中“Bick, an insect scientist, researches ways to better detect the agricultural pests that drive serious economic losses worldwide.(比克是一名昆虫科学家,他研究如何更好地检测造成全球严重经济损失的农业害虫。) ”可知,比克在玉米地里工作的目的是为一项研究做安排。故选B。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Bick, an insect scientist, researches ways to better detect the agricultural pests that drive serious economic losses worldwide.(比克是一名昆虫科学家,他研究如何更好地检测造成全球严重经济损失的农业害虫)”以及“Corn rootworm, also known as the “billion-dollar bug,” feeds on corn roots, limiting the plant’s nutrient supply and making stalks fall over. As a result, 20% of the crop is lost to the insect every year.(玉米根虫,也被称为‘十亿美元虫’,以玉米根为食,限制了植物的营养供应,使秸秆倒下。结果,每年有20%的作物被昆虫吞噬)”可知,玉米根虫被命名为“十亿美元虫”因为它造成巨大损失。故选B。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“A little disc sits on a solid object — like corn — and captures the vibrations moving through it, registering each one with an electrical signal. “When corn rootworm feeds on the roots, the vibration translates from the root system to the stalk,” Bick says.(一个小圆盘放在一个固体物体上——比如玉米——并捕捉穿过它的振动,用电信号记录每一个振动。‘当玉米根虫以根为食时,振动从根系统传递到茎,’比克说)”以及后文“We’re using the plant as the musical instrument, as essentially the outside of a guitar.(我们把植物当作乐器,就像吉他的外面一样)”可知,比克主要通过玉米根虫啃食根部的震动来发现这种虫子,故划线词it指代前文中的the vibration“振动”,故选D。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The team are still working on the data-processing pipeline, but hope they can get the Insect Eavesdropper on the shelf in a couple of years. Their goal is to advance pest detection — and maybe inspire people to listen to everything a little closer.(该团队仍在研究数据处理管道,但希望他们能在几年内将昆虫窃听器上架。他们的目标是推进害虫检测——也许还能激励人们更近距离地倾听一切)”可知,昆虫窃听器有潜力提升病虫害监测,由此可知,Insect Eavesdropper“昆虫窃听器”很有前景。故选C。
D
Artificial empathy (AE) is becoming measurable. In an analysis of 15 studies, AI outperformed humans in perceived empathy in 13 of the 15, with an effect size of 0.87 — clinically meaningful. Patients reported feeling understood by systems that cannot feel. Then came a JAMA Internal Medicine study: nearly 200 real-world patient questions, chatbot versus physician. The machine’s responses were rated higher in both quality and empathy; in nearly 80% of cases, its tone was preferred.
This is not AI “catching up” with humans. It is a deeper inversion (反转) — anti-intelligence taking emotional form. AE is empathy without empathy: an echo of care produced by syntax (句法), not sentiment. Human empathy is born in uncertainty — in pauses, in stumbles, and in the uneasy reality of life itself. It is the physician who knows illness through experience, the nurse who learns through a child’s pain — AI erases that friction, replacing it with flawless linguistic precision. The result feels better because it is frictionless. Anti-intelligence is fluent not in doubt, but in confidence — and that confidence now wears compassion’s mask.
We are moved not by what AI feels, but by what it sounds like it feels. Our minds interpret acknowledgment and reassurance as empathy; when AI delivers those consistently, we project depth where none exists. The empathy lives in us, not in the machine. Yet the physiology is real — blood pressure drops, anxiety lessens — while the machine feels nothing.
This intersection gives us functional empathy: a practical indicator that can be improved, standardized, and prescribed. Once empathy is reproducible through data, its moral core — the shared awareness of another’s suffering — becomes dangerously optional. Institutions may replace human compassion with artificial ones, for machines never tire; they deliver the same emotional temperature at midnight as at noon. If empathy is measured only by outcomes, who needs awareness?
Perhaps we will need two kinds of empathy going forward: the functional and the felt. One delivers measurable relief; the other sustains meaning. Artificial empathy has crossed from technological imitation to clinical instrument — and it works precisely because it bypasses the fragile, wonderful interior of human emotion. Anti-intelligence is not the absence of thought or care; it is their mechanical perfection. Empathy is freed from uncertainty and consciousness is replaced by correlation. The performance works, but the feeling disappears.
12. What does paragraph 1 reveal about perceived empathy?
A. A detailed definition of the concept. B. Wide applications of AE in daily life.
C. Improved interaction among patients. D. Advantages of AI over human beings.
13. What causes patients’ physical relief from AI’s response?
A. Improved medical treatment. B. True emotional compassion from AI.
C. Patients’ subjective perception. D. Growing awareness of human suffering.
14. What did the author say about functional empathy?
A. It ignores human prescription. B. It standardizes inner awareness.
C. It lacks genuine inner emotion. D. It works better than human care.
15. What does the author mainly argue about artificial empathy?
A. Showing human empathy is more reliable.
B. Relieving patients while lacking true feeling.
C. Banning artificial empathy for deceiving patients.
D. Delivering measurable relief through flawless language.
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍人工共情(AE),它可以带来可感知的安慰效果,但本身没有真实情感,是一种功能性共情,作者辨析了人工共情和人类真实共情的区别。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“In an analysis of 15 studies, AI outperformed humans in perceived empathy in 13 of the 15, with an effect size of 0.87 — clinically meaningful.(在对15项研究的分析中,AI在15项中的13项里于感知共情方面胜过人类,效应量为0.87——具有临床意义。)”以及“The machine’s responses were rated higher in both quality and empathy; in nearly 80% of cases, its tone was preferred.(机器的回答在质量和共情两方面都被评为更高;在近80%的案例中,其语气更受青睐。)”可知,第一段揭示的是AI相对于人类的优势。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“We are moved not by what AI feels, but by what it sounds like it feels. Our minds interpret acknowledgment and reassurance as empathy; when AI delivers those consistently, we project depth where none exists. The empathy lives in us, not in the machine. Yet the physiology is real — blood pressure drops, anxiety lessens — while the machine feels nothing.(我们被打动不是因为AI感受到了什么,而是因为它听起来像感受到了什么。我们的大脑把认可和安慰解读为共情;当AI持续传递这些时,我们便在并不存在深度的地方投射出深度。共情存在于我们心中,而不在机器里。然而生理反应是真实的——血压下降、焦虑减轻——而机器毫无感觉。)”可知,患者的身体缓解来自其自身的主观感知,而非AI的真实情感。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Once empathy is reproducible through data, its moral core — the shared awareness of another’s suffering — becomes dangerously optional.(一旦共情可以通过数据复制,其道德核心——对他人苦难的共同感知——就变得危险地可有可无。)”以及“If empathy is measured only by outcomes, who needs awareness?(如果共情只以结果来衡量,谁还需要感知?)”可知,共情如果可以通过数据复制,那它就变得可有可无,如果共情只以结果来衡量,人们将不需要感知,可推理出作者认为功能性共情缺乏真实的内在情感。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“One delivers measurable relief; the other sustains meaning. Artificial empathy has crossed from technological imitation to clinical instrument — and it works precisely because it bypasses the fragile, wonderful interior of human emotion.(一种提供可测量的缓解;另一种维系意义。人工共情已从技术模仿跨越为临床工具——而它之所以奏效,恰恰是因为它绕过了人类情感脆弱而美妙的内部。)”以及“The performance works, but the feeling disappears.(表现奏效了,但感受消失了。)”可知,人工共情已从技术模仿跨越为临床工具,而它之所以奏效,恰恰是因为它绕过了人类情感脆弱而美妙的内部,可推理出作者主要论述的是人工共情能缓解患者,但缺乏真实感受。

How to Be a Mountain Climber
Standing on a high mountain peak can be one of the most rewarding experiences on Earth. But reaching one requires much more than determination. It demands physical fitness, proper gear (装备) and respect for nature’s power. ___16___
Before attempting a mountain climb, you need to get your body ready. ___17___ Long-distance hiking strengthens your legs and builds endurance. Regular running prepares your heart and lungs for long climbs. Start with low-altitude (低海拔的) day hikes and gradually increase the distance and altitude.
Proper boots and clothing are also essential for safe climbing. Tough, waterproof mountain boots protect your feet from sharp rocks and keep them dry in wet conditions. ___18___ In addition, dress in layers made of wool or other insulating (保温的) materials rather than cotton, which stays wet and can leave you cold.
___19___ Conditions in the mountains can change rapidly. Bright sunshine may give way to heavy rain, thick fog or heavy snow within hours. Check local weather forecasts before departure and prepare a backup plan in case conditions worsen.
Beginners must also watch for altitude sickness. At high altitudes, thinner air can cause headaches or tiredness. ___20___ Never climb too quickly. Move slowly and rest frequently as you gain altitude. Descend immediately if the symptoms become severe.
Mountain climbing rewards patience and careful planning. Reaching the summit is exciting, but returning safely is the real goal.
A. Break them in on short walks before a major climb.
B. The safest approach is to give your body time to adjust.
C. Sound judgment about the weather is equally important.
D. Physical training is the foundation of safe mountain climbing.
E. This means mountain climbing is mainly a test of physical strength.
F. Suitable clothing can reduce the need to plan carefully for bad weather.
G. Therefore, climbers should never set out without thorough preparation.
【答案】16. G 17. D 18. A 19. C 20. B
【解析】
【导语】短文介绍了如何成为一名登山者。
【16题详解】
根据上文“But reaching one requires much more than determination. It demands physical fitness, proper gear (装备) and respect for nature’s power.(但登顶仅靠决心远远不够。它还需要身体素质、合适的装备以及对自然力量的敬畏)”可推知,登山要求高、风险大,所以出发前必须有充分准备。G项“Therefore, climbers should never set out without thorough preparation.(因此,登山者绝不能在没有充分准备的情况下出发)”中的Therefore承接上文并引出下文各方面的准备。
【17题详解】
根据上文“Before attempting a mountain climb, you need to get your body ready.(在尝试登山之前,你需要让身体做好准备)”可推知,本段围绕身体训练展开。D项“Physical training is the foundation of safe mountain climbing.(体能训练是安全登山的基础)”紧扣段首句,统领下文“Long-distance hiking strengthens your legs and builds endurance. Regular running prepares your heart and lungs for long climbs. Start with low-altitude (低海拔的) day hikes and gradually increase the distance and altitude.(长距离徒步可以增强腿部力量、提高耐力。定期跑步能为长时间爬坡做好心脏和肺部的准备。从低海拔日间徒步开始,逐步增加距离和海拔)”的具体训练内容,故选D。
【18题详解】
根据上文“Tough, waterproof mountain boots protect your feet from sharp rocks and keep them dry in wet conditions.(结实防水的登山靴能保护双脚不被尖锐岩石划伤,并在潮湿环境中保持干燥)”可推知,接下来应继续说明与新登山靴相关的事项。A项“Break them in on short walks before a major climb.(在重大攀登之前,先短途步行磨合它们)”中的them指代空前的mountain boots,且“在正式登山前先磨合新靴子”符合生活常识和逻辑。
【19题详解】
根据下文“Check local weather forecasts before departure and prepare a backup plan in case conditions worsen.(出发前查看当地天气预报,并准备好备用计划以防天气恶化)”可推知,本段强调对天气的判断。C项“Sound judgment about the weather is equally important.(对天气做出明智的判断同样重要)”中Sound judgment about the weather与本段内容呼应,且equally important承接上文提到的训练与装备。
【20题详解】
根据上文“At high altitudes, thinner air can cause headaches or tiredness.(在高海拔地区,稀薄的空气会引起头痛或疲劳)”及下文“Never climb too quickly. Move slowly and rest frequently as you gain altitude. Descend immediately if the symptoms become severe.(不要爬得太快。随着海拔升高,应缓慢移动并频繁休息。如果症状加重,请立即下降)”可推知,上文谈到高原反应的症状,下文给出应对办法。B项“The safest approach is to give your body time to adjust.(最安全的方法是让身体有时间适应)”与下文“慢慢爬、多休息”的具体做法衔接自然。

第二节(满分25分)
52. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My biggest fear has always been public speaking. At 7 years old, the worst thing my parents could ask of me was to talk to someone outside of my immediate family, and presenting in front of my class was a nightmare.
As I grew up, I started to notice my fear was affecting my health and social life. I was only 14, yet the idea of a class presentation made me lose sleep and I had a hard time meeting new people and making friends.
I felt upset. It seemed impossible for me to get over such fear. I admitted defeat and made peace with knowing I just wasn’t good at public speaking. Deep down I knew it wasn’t a permanent fact — I was always just too scared to try.
Two shameful years went by and just when I thought I was fine with my inability to communicate in front of people, my school announced the start of that year’s Model United Nations competition. Model UN consisted of several mock trials during a week-long span, where students would assume a role and debate in front of others.
My friends had been a part of Model UN for years and had the best times when they participated. I wanted to join, but I knew I would freeze on the spot. I was tired of missing out on moments with my friends, so I made an impulsive (冲动的) out-of-character decision and joined the club at the last minute.
The first day was the worst. I was assigned an important role, and the debate would have been dull if I didn’t participate, so I tried my best to say something.
When I stood up to read my opening speech, I froze. I imagined that moment many times, and I was hoping I’d suddenly be able to speak clearly, but the reality was far off from my dream. I didn’t pronounce a single word clearly and nobody understood my argument.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右。
2.请在答题卡上按照以下格式作答。
The committee’s president saw how scared I was and she encouraged me to speak.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
By the end of the week, I was finally able to stand up and speak like I had always wanted to.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
The committee’s president saw how scared I was and she encouraged me to speak. She told me everyone felt nervous at first and no one would judge my imperfect words. Inspired by her kindness, I took a deep breath and tried again slowly. Every afternoon after class, I stayed in the empty classroom to practise my lines repeatedly. Whenever panic rose inside me, I reminded myself that progress mattered more than perfection. Little by little, I grew braver and dared to raise my voice during small group discussions.
By the end of the week, I was finally able to stand up and speak like I had always wanted to. My voice was steady and my points were fully understood by all members. I didn’t become a perfect speaker overnight, but I beat my long-lasting fear of public speaking. This unforgettable experience taught me that courage doesn’t mean having no fear. It means moving forward bravely even when you are terrified. I felt proud of myself for making that brave impulsive choice.
