22.细节理解题。根据第三段中“You can surely jump on to any point as you like, but you can’t afford to miss all the pubs full of jokes and laughter on the way!(你当然可以随心所欲地跳到任何一个点上，但你不能错过路上所有充满笑话和笑声的酒吧！)”可知，西南海岸航道当地的酒吧值得推荐。故选C。
23.细节理解题。根据三个小标题“Wales Coastal Path；Southwest Coast Path；Coast to Coast Walk(威尔士海岸小径；西南海岸步道；海岸到海岸步道)”以及最后一段中“You’ll want nine days to folly complete this hike, which explores both the North York Moors and the county’s world-famous coastline.

记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者全家在满月下外出散步的经历，在月亮下作者和孩子们探讨了有关月球的知识，从而表现了大自然是最好的老师。
24. 词义猜测。根据文章第二段“My husband Todd and I first started going on full moon walks for ourselves, as we needed these little doses of moonlight to stay happy, though sometimes we had to hike through the forest to find a perfect spot. But after we became parents, we did this for our children.(我和丈夫托德最初开始进行满月散步是为了我们自己，因为我们需要这样一点一滴的月光来保持快乐，尽管有时我们必须穿越森林去寻找一个完美的地方。但当了父母后，我们就为孩子们做这件事)”可推知，第二段中划线的“this”指的是在满月下散步。故选B。
25. 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Todd explained to Sierra and Bryce that the moon generates no light, but simply acts like a mirror, reflecting the sunlight back to us. “Does the moon’s face change ” Bryce asked.(Todd向Sierra和Bryce解释说，月亮不会发光，只是像一面镜子一样，把阳光反射回我们身边。Bryce问道：“月亮的脸会变吗？”)”及“Sierra remarked that the moon looked larger and closer when it was rising.(Sierra说，当月亮升起时，它看起来更大、更近)”可知，孩子们在这次外出活动中表现出对月球的探索精神。故选C项。
26. 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“We wanted to show Sierra and Bryce that it was not necessary to travel far from home to have an adventure and learn something new, and that there was much magic in the natural world, available to all.(我们想让Sierra和Bryce明白，无需远离家乡就能体验冒险并学到新东西，而且自然界本身就蕴含着神奇之处，对所有人都触手可及)”可知，这对父母有比较深刻的见解，文章第三段““Does the moon’s face change ” Bryce asked. I told him that the moon rotates around the earth, but does not spin by itself, so the same side of the moon is always facing the earth.(“月亮的脸会变吗？”Bryce问道。我告诉他，月球绕地球旋转，但不会自行旋转，所以月球的同一侧总是面向地球)”及“I explained that it is a visual illusion because it is so close to the horizon that the moon magically tricks our eyes into comparing it with nearby objects, thus creating the impression of the increased size.(我解释说，这是一种视觉错觉，因为它离地平线太近了，月亮神奇地欺骗我们的眼睛，让我们把它与附近的物体进行比较，从而给人留下尺寸增大的印象)”可知，孩子提出问题时，作者总是耐心回答，故这对父母是有深刻见解的，有耐心的。故选D项。
27. 主旨大意题。根据文章第二段“We wanted to show Sierra and Bryce that it was not necessary to travel far from home to have an adventure and learn something new, and that there was much magic in the natural world, available to all.(我们想让Sierra和Bryce明白，无需远离家乡就能体验冒险并学到新东西，而且自然界本身就蕴含着神奇之处，对所有人都触手可及)”及文章最后一段“To educate, sometimes all it takes is going outdoors and gazing up at the heavens.(教育孩子时，有时候所需要的仅仅是走出户外，抬头仰望天空)”可知，作者想要表达“大自然是最好的老师”。故选C项。

新闻报道。机器人初创公司Akin的创始人Yearsley正在开发的人工智能系统将为用户带来体贴和人性化的家庭管理服务，使“关怀”和“同理心”不再与技术无关。
28．推理判断题。根据第三段第一句“In contrast, the AI that she is developing will be designed to run the human home, encouraging healthful decisions such as taking a nightly walk, refilling the fridge and supporting social interactions like lunches or birthday celebrations with friends. (相比之下，她正在开发的人工智能将被设计为管理人类的家庭，鼓励健康的决定，比如晚上散步，给冰箱加满食物，支持与朋友共进午餐或庆祝生日等社交互动。)，可知Akin的人工智能系统支持与家人一起度过更多时间。故选C。
29．细节理解题。根据第四段第一句“Yearsley began developing the Akin technology in 2017, when she realized .the need to better manage the home is hugely ignored. ( Yearsley在2017年开始开发Akin技术，当时她意识到更好地管理家庭的需求被严重忽视。)”，第二句“Besides， she realized that women unequally bear the burden of household work. (此外，她意识到女性承担家务的负担是不平等的。)”可知，Yearsley的AI系统研发的因素之一就是家庭主妇和照顾者的沉重负担。故选D。
30．推理判断题。根据第二段第二句“Current home devices made by Google or Amazon or Apple use predictive A1 to track patterns, strengthen behaviors and manipulate buying decisions, some of which, she assumes, are questionable or just unhealthy. (目前由谷歌、亚马逊或苹果生产的家用设备使用预测性人工智能来跟踪模式、强化行为并操控购买决策。其中有一些，她认为，是有问题的或者不健康的。)”和第三段的“In contrast, the Al that she is developing will be designed to run the human home, encouraging healthful decisions such as taking a nightly walk, refilling the fridge and supporting social interactions like lunches or birthday celebrations with friends. (相比之下，她正在开发的人工智能将被设计为管理人类的家庭，鼓励健康的决定，比如晚上散步，给冰箱加满食物，支持与朋友共进午餐或庆祝生日等社交互动。)”可知，Akin公司的人工智能系统是考虑周到的且新颖的。故选C。
31．推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句 “ Akin has received some early seed from a handful of investors, and was recently selected as a finalist for tech giant LG Nova's Mission for the Future program, an annual challenge that seeks to identify businesses having potential to improve life and lead society into the future. ( Akin已经从一些投资者那里获得了一些早期种子资金，最近还入选了科技巨头LG Nova的“未来使命‘项目的决赛名单，该项目是一个年度挑战，旨在寻找有潜力改善生活、引领社会走向未来的企业。)”并结合全文可知，本文的目的是介绍Akin公司的一套未来人工智能系统。故选A。
【D篇答案】32. B 33. A 34. C 35. B
说明文。这篇文章介绍了一项来自华盛顿大学的研究，显示人类冬眠可能很快成为现实。研究人员认为，利用冬眠的力量可能有助于解决心脏病和阿尔茨海默病等健康问题，并在太空探索中带来好处，如减少食物需求和保护骨骼肌肉。他们计划进一步研究降低体温对人类认知能力的影响。
32.推理判断题。根据第二段“They first identified a group of neurons (神经元) in a deep brain region, which were found to be involved in controlling body temperature during hibernation. They showed that, in mice, these neurons could be stimulated using ultrasound (超声波), which was delivered through a helmet without causing an injury.( 他们首先确定了大脑深部区域的一组神经元，这些神经元被发现与冬眠期间控制体温有关。他们证明，在老鼠身上，可以用超声波刺激这些神经元，超声波通过头盔传递而不会造成伤害。)”以及第三段中“When receiving the ultrasound, the mice showed a drop in body temperature of about3°C, and their heart rates fell by about 47%. When the ultrasound system was switched off, they woke up again.(当接受超声波时，小鼠的体温下降了约3°C，心率下降了约47%。当超声波系统被关闭时，他们又醒了。)”可知，研究者首先确定老鼠大脑中控制体温相关的神经元，通过超声波刺激这些神经元，导致老鼠体温下降，由此进入冬眠。由此推断通过刺激老鼠大脑中的神经元可以让老鼠冬眠。故选B。
33.词义猜测题。根据第四段划线词后的内容“the power of hibernation to help humans(冬眠帮助人类的力量)”以及后文“They believe that it could be key to addressing health conditions like heart disease, and Alzheimer’s. (他们认为，这可能是解决心脏病和阿尔茨海默病等健康问题的关键。)”可知，研究者正在研究使用冬眠来帮助人类解决心脏病和阿尔茨海默病等健康问题，故人类正在努力尝试利用冬眠。故划线词与A选项“Employ.(利用)”为同义词。故选A。
34.推理判断题。根据倒数第三段中“ Research in animals also suggests that bodies of hibernating astronauts might lose less bone and muscle, making them fit and ready to start challenging exploration soon after they wake up. (对动物的研究也表明，冬眠的宇航员的身体可能会失去更少的骨骼和肌肉，使他们在醒来后很快就能开始具有挑战性的探索。)”可知，冬眠的宇航员的身体可能会损失更少的骨骼肌肉，使他们在苏醒后能够保持健康，并且可以立即开始具有挑战性的探索任务即冬眠帮助宇航员保持身体健康。故选C。
35.推理判断题。根据最后一段中““Our next experiments will test working memory in monkeys. This is important because while astronauts physically hibernate as they fly into deep space, their brain still needs to be working,” said Chen.(“我们的下一个实验将测试猴子的工作记忆。这很重要，因为当宇航员在太空深处飞行时，他们的身体处于冬眠状态，他们的大脑仍然需要工作。”)”可知，最后一段强调的是下一阶段将在猴子身上展开研究，由此最后一段的目的是引出后续研究的重点。故选B。

40. E 根据后文“Often, the reason you get stuck for gift ideas is because you are restricting yourself too much. If you are only fixed on the same kind of presents then you'll run out of inspiration.”(通常，你被礼物的想法束缚的原因是你限制自己太多了。如果你只专注于同一种礼物，那么你的灵感就会枯竭。)可知，此处是指要突破限制，进行创新。所以选项E “如果你仍然一无所获，那是时候发挥创造力了。”切合文意。故选E。

Dear Frank,
I heard that you have been keen on Chinese culture recently, so I am writing to invite you to visit my hometown Changsha in the coming summer holiday.
Changsha, as a famous historic and cultural city, is home to many representative tourist attractions. To be specific, Orange Isle looks like a large green ship sailing in the center of the Xiangjiang River, where you can take a view of the grand statue of Mao Zedong as well as the beauty of nature. Besides, it is also a good choice to visit Yuelu Academy, learning about its origin and experiencing its cultural atmosphere. In addition, it is worth sampling the Hunan cuisine and street food with a local spicy flavor in Huangxing Road Pedestrian Street.
I hope there will be nothing stopping you from coming. Looking forward to your reply.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
Over the next few weeks, Lin followed the ways we discussed. At school, she sought additional help from her physics teacher, who provided her with additional guidance. Lin also joined a study group with her classmates, where they solved difficult problems together and shared some study methods about physics. At home, my husband and I kept encouraging her and acknowledged every small victory in her understanding of physics. We could see her gradually but surely overcome her fear of physics.
Finally came Lin’s final-term physics exam. The night before, she was understandably nervous, but there was a newfound confidence in her eyes. The day after the exam, Lin came home with a big smile. While she didn’t get the top score, she did much better than we expected. This achievement was more than just about the grade; it was about the journey she undertook to overcome her challenges. This small success brought not just relief but also a stronger bond in our family, united by our collective effort and belief in each other.

M: Dear diary, it's the 10th day of my bicycle journey from Beijing to Mongolia.(17) (19)Tomorrow will be one of the hardest days.

The United Kingdom is a land of natural beauty and history, with many of its finest attractions discovered through hiking. Now, dust off your boots, plan according to the following routes presented by a survey of senior hikers and an incredible experience will wait for you.
Wales Coastal Path
Wales is the only country in the world that has an official walking path covering its whole borders. The Wales Coastal Path is a footpath stretching 870 miles from Chester to Chepstow. Walking the whole thing might be demanding, but there are plenty of stretches that can be enjoyed over a day or two.
Southwest Coast Path
You need a fair amount of annual leave, a casual 52 days or so, to undertake this in one go. The route runs from Somerset all the way to Dorset, via rugged cliffs, cute fishing villages and surfing spots along the coastline. You can surely jump on to any point as you like, but you can't afford to miss all the pubs full of jokes and laughter on the way!
Coast to Coast Walk
This long-distance trail isn’t official, but popular in the country, taking hikers from the Irish Sea to the North Sea as it rolls into historic Robin Hood’s Bay in Yorkshire. Following local footpaths, the route takes you through three UK National Parks: the Lakes, the Yorkshire Dales and the North York Moors.
Cleveland Way
You’ll want nine days to folly complete this hike, which explores both the North York Moors and the county’s world-famous coastline. Just make sure you allow enough time to properly enjoy spots like Roseberry Topping hill and pick up a gentle afternoon walk at Whitby’s clifftop church.
21. Who will be more interested in the routes

Tonight, our family was going out to play under the full moon.
My husband Todd and I first started going on full moon walks for ourselves, as we needed these little doses of moonlight to stay happy, though sometimes we had to hike through the forest to find a perfect spot. But after we became parents, we did this for our children. We wanted to show Sierra and Bryce that it was not necessary to travel far from home to have an adventure and learn something new, and that there was much magic in the natural world, available to all.
Once we arrived at our location, Sierra and I stood holding hands, waiting to cheer the full moon in its rising—a thin sliver of the appealing moon emerged above the ridge of the mountain afar. Soon, more of the moon came out until it turned into a brilliant orange sphere. Todd explained to Sierra and Bryce that the moon generates no light, but simply acts like a mirror, reflecting the sunlight back to us. “Does the moon’s face change ” Bryce asked. I told him that the moon rotates (旋转) around the earth, but does not spin by itself, so the same side of the moon is always facing the earth. Sierra remarked that the moon looked larger and closer when it was rising. I explained that it is a visual illusion (错觉) because it is so close to the horizon that the moon magically tricks our eyes into comparing it with nearby objects, thus creating the impression of the increased size.
Much of the knowledge that I shared with the kids was learned from my parents. During my childhood, they would take me on educational adventures out in the woods, and as I later found, so did their parents. So every time I go for a full moon walk with my beloved family, I thank those wise educators who came before me.
To educate, sometimes all it takes is going outdoors and gazing up at the heavens.
24. What does the underlined word “this” in paragraph 2 refer to
A. Going on a hike through the forest.
B. Taking a walk under the full moon.
C. Watching magic shows every month.
D. Traveling far from home for adventure.
25. What can we learn from their family outing
A. The kids were reluctant to participate.

D. The author used a magic trick to explain the larger moon.
26. Which of the following best describes the parents

C. Inspiring and generous. D. Insightful and patient.
27. What does the story convey to the readers
A. Life is what you make it.
B. Every cloud has a silver lining.
C. Nature is the best teacher.
D. God helps those who help themselves.
C
The words “caring” and “empathetic”(共情的) aren’t ones normally associated with technology. Yearsley, an Australian enterpriser who is expert in artificial intelligence (AI), is trying to change that.
Yearsley is the founder of Akin, a robotics startup that currently uses a tablet-based system to help users manage the tasks related to home life, whether that’s planning meals or reminding you to pay your cell phone bill. Current home devices made by Google or Amazon or Apple use predictive AI to track patterns, strengthen behaviors and manipulate(操控) buying decisions, some of which, she assumes, are questionable or just unhealthy.
In contrast, the AI that she is developing will be designed to run the human home, encouraging healthful decisions such as taking a nightly walk, refilling the fridge and supporting social interactions like lunches or birthday celebrations with friends.” It’s the hardest AI I have ever built for it’s a complex system, Yearsley says.
Yearsley began developing the Akin technology in 2017, when she realized the need to better manage the home is hugely ignored. Besides, she realized that women unequally bear the burden of household work. A United Nations report estimates that women do 2. 6 times the amount of unpaid care and domestic work that men do, or close to 30 hours per week in the U. S. alone.
While Yearsley pictures an army of robots someday helping with routine homemade tasks, the first display for Akin will take time and money. Akin has received some early seed money from a handful of investors, and was recently selected as a finalist for tech giant LG Nova’s Mission for the Future program, an annual challenge that seeks to identify businesses having potential to improve life and lead society into the future.
28．What might the Akin’s AI system suggest
A．Consuming more drinks to enjoy yourself.
B．Staying up late working to make more money.
C．Spending more time staying with your family.
D．Purchasing products that may attract you.
29．What made Yearsley develop the Akin’s AI system
A．The high cost of current home devices.
B．Akin’s becoming a finalist for a program.
C．Financial support from investors.
D．Heavy burden of housewives.
30．What can be used to describe the Akin’s AI system
A．Popular and promising B．Stable and secure
C．Thoughtful and innovative D．Mature and ideal
31．What’s the purpose of the text
A．To introduce a futuristic AI system
B．To compare two companies’ AI systems
C．To call on people to care about housewives
D．To seek support for an AI expert

Hibernation (冬眠) is a classic topic of science fiction. In movies such as 2001: A Space Odyssey, Alien, or Passengers, crew members are put into a state of sleep to take year-long journeys to space. Now a new study from Washington University has shown that human hibernation may soon become a reality.
The research team carried out tests on rats — animals that do not naturally hibernate. They first identified a group of neurons (神经元) in a deep brain region, which were found to be involved in controlling body temperature during hibernation. They showed that, in mice, these neurons could be stimulated using ultrasound (超声波), which was delivered through a helmet without causing an injury.
When receiving the ultrasound, the mice showed a drop in body temperature of about3°C, and their heart rates fell by about 47%. When the ultrasound system was switched off, they woke up again. The result was “surprising and fascinating”, said Hong Chen, a professor who led the work.
Researchers are also trying to determine how to harness the power of hibernation to help humans. They believe that it could be key to addressing health conditions like heart disease, and Alzheimer’s. Furthermore, hibernation’s ability to slow aging, which was observed in bats, could benefit space exploration, enabling longer missions with less food requirements. Research in animals also suggests that bodies of hibernating astronauts might lose less bone and muscle, making them fit and ready to start challenging exploration soon after they wake up.
By unlocking the secrets of this remarkable process, researchers may uncover ways to improve human health, as well as gain new insights into the natural world. Therefore, the exploration of hibernation is an exciting area that is sure to yield numerous benefits in the years to come.
The scientists now plan to look at how lowered body temperature might affect the cognitive abilities of humans. “Our next experiments will test working memory in monkeys. This is important because while astronauts physically hibernate as they fly into deep space, their brain still needs to be working,” said Chen.
32. How did researchers put rats into hibernation
A. By lowering their body temperature.
B. By activating specific brain neurons.
C. By putting a regular helmet on them.
D. By using ultrasound through an operation.
33. What does the underlined word “harness” in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A. Employ. B. Challenge. C. Overlook. D. Discover.
34. What advantage might hibernation bring to humans
A. It improves people’s mental health.
B. It predicts a variety of heart diseases.
C. It helps astronauts keep physically fit.
D. It enables astronauts to build up muscle.
35. What’s the purpose of the last paragraph
A. To point out the significance of the study.
B. To bring out the focus of follow-up studies.
C. To discuss other factors affecting hibernation.
D. To explain practical applications of the finding.

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 16-year-old daughter, Lin, had always been a cheerful girl, full of laughter. Her transition (转变) to senior high school was originally met with great enthusiasm (热情). She would come home every day, sharing with us tales of her new experiences, her friends and the fun news of high school life. But as weeks went by, she became quieter and something seemed to be troubling her deeply.
My husband and I realized something was wrong,but we decided to wait until she was ready to open up. One evening, I prepared her favorite jiaozi for supper, hoping it would cheer her up. However, that night, it was different. She seldom touched it, lost in thought. After the meal,we gathered in the living room,a space where our family had shared many heart-to-hearts. The air was heavy with unspoken words. My husband and I exchanged a quick look before I decided to break the silence. I gently brought up the subject, “Lin, you seemed worried lately. Is everything okay at school You know you can always open up to me and your dad.”
Lin looked up, her eyes reflecting a mix of frustration (沮丧) and hopelessness. “Mom, I’m really struggling with physics. No matter how hard I try, I couldn’t understand it a little bit. I feel so lost.” she admitted, with her voice trembling slightly. My heart sank as I saw the sadness in her eyes. Physics had always been a challenging subject for her, but this time it seemed to go beyond the usual difficulties. Then I reached out, holding her hand and trying to offer comfort and said, “High school is a big step. and it’s okay to take some time to adjust (调整). The most important thing is that you’ve been honest about how you’re feeling.” My husband cut in, “We can work through this together. step by step. Remember, we are always here for you.” Then we offered her some practical advice.
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。
Over the next few weeks, Lin followed the ways we discussed.____________________
