(选择最恰当的答案) (本大题共 10 题，每题 1 分，共 10 分) Qian Zhongshu, a famous Chinese scholar and writer, was known ___21___ his strong memory. His brain worked like a huge library full of knowledge. People were often amazed by his great ability. He had already shown his talent even in his ___22___. Many people thought that he was simply born with it. However, his great memory wasn't ___23___ natural gift. Instead, he improved it slowly through some very effective learning methods. One method ___24___ he often used was taking notes. Whenever he read a book, he would always sit at his desk with a pen in his hand. As a great reader, he was familiar ___25___ many classical works. However, he never thought his notes were complete after reading a book for the first time. He believed that reading once was never enough to understand everything. Therefore, he never hesitated ___26___ the same book over and over again. Each time he reread it, he would carefully add ___27___ new to his previous notes. In addition, he wrote down key points in his own words ___28___ he could better understand the writer's ideas. Why is taking notes so helpful for our memory? Scientists say our brains ___29___ hold everything at once. Taking notes forces us to think actively. When we write key points in our own words, we connect new ideas with old knowledge. This helps move short-term memory into long-term memory. Besides, writing things down frees up space in our brains. It allows us to focus on deeper understanding instead of just trying to remember. As Qian once showed us, the true goal of note-taking is to recall what we ___30___ and keep it in our minds for a long time. It turns simple reading into active learning. By following his steps, we can also build a strong memory and become better learners. 21. A. for B. as C. by 22. A. twenties B. twentieth C. twenty 23. A. the B. a C. an 24. A. where B. which C. what 25. A. to B. with C. for 26. A. to read B. reading C. read 27. A. everything B. nothing C. something 28. A. in order to B. so that C. because 29. A. can't B. needn't C. mustn't 30. A. learn B. learned C. have learned III. Complete the following passage with the words or phrases in the box. Each word or phrase can be used only once. (将下列单词或短语填入空格，每个单词或短语只能填一次) (本大题共 8 题，每题 1 分，共 8 分) A. driver B. work C. break down D. cool E. resource By 2030, the world's data centers will use twice as much electricity as they do today. AI is the main ___31___ of this huge energy consumption (消耗). It forces countries to look for new ways to solve the big problem. China is leading the way by putting data centers under the sea as a greener solution. In December 2022, Hainan became home to China's first underwater data center. This was followed by a more advanced project in Shanghai in 2025. When AI servers ___32___ hard to process large amounts of information, they give off a lot of heat, which makes the room temperature rise quickly. If the heat isn't taken away in time, the servers won't run well or even ___33___. Usually, on-land data centers have to use up to 40% of their electricity just to ___34___ AI servers. This wastes a lot of energy, so scientists have been trying hard to find a better way. A. less B. another C. more D. perfect E. land Underwater data centers, like the one in Shanghai, use pipes to pump (输送) cold water. When water goes through the servers, it takes in heat and carries it away. The sea temperature is about 15℃, which is ___35___ for natural cooling. In this way, electricity is greatly saved. An assessment (评估) shows the underwater data center uses at least 30% ___36___ electricity than on-land data centers because of this natural cooling method. Besides, underwater data centers can also reduce ___37___ usage by 80%. This leaves more space for people to live and farm. The one in Shanghai offers ___38___ benefit: it will get more than 95% of its electricity from wind energy. It also considers using tidal (潮汐) and wave energy. China is working hard to create low-carbon digital infrastructure (低碳数字基础设施). This act helps cut down pollution from AI. It also could set a new standard for sustainable computing (可持续算力) worldwide. IV. Complete the dialogue. (补全对话) (本大题共 5 题，每题 2 分，共 10 分) Situation: Tony and Alex are talking about their upcoming graduation trip. Alex: Hi, Tony! Our junior high school days will be over soon.

(根据短文内容完成任务) (第 66 至 71 题，每题 2 分；第 72 题 6 分；共 18 分) I am a free dog called Johannes. I live in a large park by the sea. Freya is one of the three Bison (野牛) who live in an area with a fence within the park. Recently, I wanted to set them free and I almost succeeded. Towards the end of the journey, Freya said to me, “We can't get on that ship.” “But it's right down there,” I said. “We've already done the hard part. The goats have performed their duties, jumping and crying and making chaos (混乱) all around, so you wouldn't be found when you hid among them. Everything's ready.” I was worried, for the sky was growing brighter, and it would be more difficult for the goats to hide the Bison from humans as they went down the hill. “No,” Freya said. “We're not going. We thought we could, but this short journey has already proven we are not ready for more. We can't make it.” “But why let me—let all of us—go through all this trouble?” I asked. “You needn't be angry,” Freya said. “Or sad. Or even surprised. Look at us. We're slow and old. We couldn't go across the sea in strange boats. Seeing this is enough.” She was still looking at the morning sea, which had grown brighter and whiter. She turned to me then. “Thank you, Johannes.” She turned to the goats. “We are so thankful. We have lived quiet lives. But you have freed our eyes and our minds. What you did today mattered a great deal. You gave us the sea. And we will not forget it.” I tried to organize my thoughts. Was all this for nothing? And would we all have to go back to the park? I stood on the top of that small mountain, wondering what to do. Then one of the goats said to me, “You could come with us. We will protect you, and when you reach the mainland, you can stay with us, or simply run free. There are a million free dogs like you.” I thought about this... Task 1: Answer the questions. 66. Where did the three Bison live? ________________________________________________________________________ 67. Johannes succeeded setting the three Bison free, didn't he? ________________________________________________________________________ 68. Why did Johannes grow more worried as the sky was getting brighter? ________________________________________________________________________ 69. Why did Freya decide not to go on the trip? Find TWO reasons. ________________________________________________________________________ 70. What did Freya mean by saying “You have freed our eyes and our minds”? ________________________________________________________________________ 71. Was the escape a complete failure to Johannes? Why? Use evidence from the passage to support your idea. ________________________________________________________________________ Task 2: 72. Do you think Johannes and Freya held different ideas of freedom? In what way are they different or the same? What's your understanding of freedom? Share your opinion in no more than 30 words. ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ VI.

You gave us the sea.”，这次行动让野牛看见了大海，并说“we will not forget it”。 72. 开放题，言之成理即可。示例：They are the same at heart—both want to be free. Johannes thinks freedom means going out into the wide world, while Freya finds freedom in seeing the sea and having her mind opened. To me, freedom is having the chance to choose what you truly want. VI. Writing（73） 参考范文（约 90 词）： Learn to Love Ourselves Our school newspaper made a survey about our worries. About 78% of the students worry about relationships, and 60% are stressed about their studies. This shows that many of us never take time to care for ourselves. If you feel lonely, try to talk with your classmates or your parents. Sharing your problems can make you feel better. Besides, join a club and find a hobby you like, so you can make new friends. Only when we learn to love ourselves can we welcome tomorrow with a light heart. 写作要求：① 不少于 60 词，标点不占格；② 结合图中数据谈看法；③ 就一种烦恼提两条建议并说明理由；④ 不得出现任何人名、校名等信息。 说明：原卷瑕疵与答案依据 ① 原卷听力 A 部分第二行只印 E、F，缺 D 标签，转 Word 版已补印。 ② 原卷 V B 的 Step 2 标题空格位编号印作“52”，与第 52 题重复，属原卷瑕疵，转 Word 版照录。 ③ 各页右下角“CS 扫描全能王”二维码为扫描软件广告水印，已删除。 ④ 听力 A（1–5）、D（16–20）答案须依据配套录音，本答案只给参考，不作定论。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
