Last year,five homeless cats lived in the shadows in our neighborhood,silently asking for help.
Every day,I saw them huddled together,their fur matted and eyes filled with hope and 1 As I watched them,I couldn't shake the feeling that I needed to take action.
Every morning,I put cat food near our building.The cats appeared, 2 at first,then rushing toward me as if they had been waiting all along.Feeding them became a ritual that strengthened our bond.As winter approached,my 3 grew.I couldn't bear the thought of those 4 creatures suffering in the biting cold.I then set up cozy corners for them in the damp basement of our building.
However,not everyone shared my compassion.One neighbor insisted on getting rid of the cats.
He called Animal Control to have them 5 .Our debates were heated,but I advocated for them as
I knew they had no one else to defend them.
As weeks passed,I felt an urge to find loving homes for the cats.I 6 friends and posted on social media.To my delight,four of them found new families.Each 7 felt like a victory in my mission to make a difference.Then there was one cat,Joy,who stole my heart completely.When I took him in,it was as if he had always 8 _in my home.His playful and silly behaviour brought laughter to my days,and his gentle purring at night brought me peace.
Through this experience,I've found 9_in my voice,learning to advocate for the voiceless.

I had wanted to be a cellist for as long as I could remember.At fifteen,I won a schoiarship to a specialist music school.I got up at 5 a.m.to play scales,practised at lunchtime and returned to my cello (大提琴)after lessons.
One evening,while practicing a demanding piece,I pushed myself too far.I felt a burning pain between my wrist and elbow.When it hadn't got better after a day or two,I started to panic.Days became weeks.I still could not write or play.Weeks turned into months.Opportunities for concerts, recitals,and competitions came and went.
When I wasn't sitting with my instrument,I was punishing myself for my own stupidity.My technique had probably not been secure enough for the demands I was placing on it.But now it was too late.
Over two years,I gradually recovered some arm function.I was able to play some early music such as Handel and Bach,on a baroque cello,as the movements are gentler and lighter.However,the possibility of my arm letting me down has never left me.
The turning point came,unexpectedly,during a photoshoot for an up-to-date picture.The photographer suggested I get my cello and see what images of playing might look like.I hesitated-I didn't see myself as a cellist any more.But then I fetched it and sat playing snatches of Bach.In that moment,the lens pointing at my instrument and me,I began to understand something I had only half
高 三 年 级 ( 英 语 ) 第 3 页 ( 共 8 页 )
sensed until then.Away from my cello,my shadow was missing.Without it I felt incomplete.But with my instrument I was protected and entirely happy in my own skin.
During that photoshoot I realised I needed to find out what the cello,and its absence,had meant to other cellists,to understand what it meant to me.So I planned a journey across Europe.I encountered cellos destroyed by war and shipwreck,and even a cello that had been turned into a beehive.I even played with a resourceful cellist,who,having lost the use of his right thumb,ties his bow onto his hand with a bicycle inner tube.
Over the course of my travels,I learned I was not alone.Besides,my experience might help others.I am also beginning to look for ways to return to the repertoire(曲目)I loved.Supported by a community of musicians in similar situations,I now celebrate every concert as a step towards healing.
24。After the injury,the author
A.tried an alternative career path B.played Bach to impress the audience
C.secured the performing opportunities D.blamed herself for practicing too hard
25.The photoshoot experience was a turning point for the author because
A.it improved her professional image
B.it showed her constant efforts paid off
C.it deepened her connection to the cello
D.it allowed her to meet incredible cellists
26.What can we learn from the passage
A.Fortune favors the bold. B.Constant dripping wears the stone.
C.Good things come to those who wait. D.When given lemons,make lemonade.

Imagine a not-too-distant future,where we each inhabit our own AI-driven digital filter(过滤) bubble,crafted for us alone and designed to serve corporate interests.This future resembles 1998's movie The Truman Show,where the main character unknowingly lived his entire life within a reality TV show designed by a production studio.
One subset of AI,large language models (LLM),won't turn our lives into reality TV shows. Instead,personalized AI agents threaten to cage each of us in an individualized and illusory(虚假的) unreality,profiting from our digital activities and walling us off from genuine connections.Many companies are developing individualized LLM.The underlying principle is that AI will learn about the individual user and adapt accordingly.For example,if you're a superfan of a football team, you'll be fed updates,ads,and videos tailored to your interests 24 hours a day.Some algorithms may even learn your schedule,pushing information at you during precisely those times when you're most likely to be looking.
This may sound harmles.But the next step is to use LLM to create memes,or even fake articles, feeding you conspiracy theories about rival teams.This is a miserable reality for at least two reasons. For one,there are neither computational methods or ethical incentives(激励)in place to ensure that the information you receive is true.But just as frightening as the lack of regard for the truth is an even scarier element.You will no longer live with an accurate understanding of football team that is fully compatible with anyone else's.You will run on information generated only for yourself.This vision is unsettling,even in sports and entertainment.But what of institutions that have more direct social consequences Education Politics

With the fall of the press and polarization of everything,conversations around holiday table have already become impossible for many extended families.Bad as the status quo might be,stranger times lie ahead that make us long for today's echo chambers(信息茧房).Soon,our bubbles will shrink further and further,until our digital worlds involve only ourselves.In an AI-mediated future, everyone will live in a private Truman Show.As a society,we will be completely incapable of making fruitful collective decisions because we will have no shared understanding of the world.
What's the way out Find your entertainment in spaces with actual people,exchanging thoughts and creations with each other.Even online,we must keep our understanding of the world grounded in human-authored documents and artifacts.Valuing what humans create is not merely a matter of authenticity;it also ensures we focus on arguments that an author cared enough to make,on conservations that speakers cared enough to have.
Otherwise,The Truman Show's premise becomes our reality,unknowingly inhabiting a fake world where our every experience is designed for profit.Even more existentially alienating Living in a Truman Show where the director,producer and the only one watching is an AI.
27.The author mentions The Truman Show in Paragraph 1 to
A.make a comparison B.illustrate a situation

B.confirm the credibility of the content
C.discourage the companies'ethical incentives
D.improve user behavior by feeding targeted ads
29.What can be inferred from the passage
A.Algorithms have raised concerns over privacy.
B.LLMs are in great need of computational upgrade.
C.Echo chambers weaken collective decision-making.
D.Technology development results in polarized society
30.Which would be the best title for this passage
A.AI and the Future of Human Interaction
B.AI Will Turn Our Lives into The Truman Show
C.The Truman Show Predicts AI's Impact on Media
D.Algorithmic Bubbles and the Value of Human Creations

If you find yourself with several million dollars more than you need,how should you spend the money One answer might be to do whatever you want,within the bounds of the law.Another is to donate it to a charity.You may also support an organization that is working to reduce existential risks.
The history of philosophy consists of attempts to shed light on such questions.However, philosophy's open secret is that these attempts don't add up to anything decisive.When it comes to what we ought to do in any given situation,different ethical systems offer different guidance.Conflict is baked into questions like,"What ought I to do "
Or is it An awareness of difference is certainly crucial to such an inquiry.But this needn't become a conflict until you're forced to pick a side.Some philosophers have sought to eliminate the
高 三 年 级 ( 英 语 ) 第 5 页 ( 共 8 页 )
conflict between ethical systems.Derek Parfit,one of the most respected philosophers of the past fifty years,devoted the second half of his life to precisely this task.
Unfortunately,the position that different ethical positions can be reconciled(和解)is itself a position others may not accept.Parfit believed people could have a good reason to act morally, independent of their knowledge or beliefs.If you find yourself in a position to alleviate(减轻)others' suffering without significantly inconveniencing yourself,then you should act.It is just a moral fact that there is a right thing that you ought to do.By contrast,Bernard Williams argued it made no sense to talk about people's reasons independently from their motivations.Someone cannot have a reason to do something that they have no desire to do—because however wrong-headed their preferences may be,subjectivity is the ground truth for “having a reason”.
As in Peter Singer's parable(寓言)of a child drowning in a shallow pond,it self-evidently seems immoral not to save this child if the only cost for you is a pair of new trainers.This is as clear as a philosophical argument can get.However,as with all moral reasoning,you are free to reject the logic or assumptions behind Singer's argument,regardless of its clarity.
Parfit was a philosopher's philosopher.Yet he suffered from the fact that irreconcilable ethical systems exist.Why Because one conclusion that follows from this is that,if the differences between such systems cannot be resolved by philosophical means,conflict of a literal kind will always exist beneath their differences.
As Karl Popper puts it,"If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant,then the tolerant will be destroyed,and tolerance with them."This is the rub.Philosophy is of the world as well as of the page-and even the gentlest words may,sooner or later,need an army to defend them."We should therefore claim,"Popper continued,"in the name of the tolerance,the right not to tolerate the intolerant."
I'm not surprised that Parfit felt despair at the limits of his persuasiveness.What's amazing is that more philosophers don't feel the same way.
31.What can we learn from the first three paragraphs
A.Philosophy can help resolve ethical conficts.
B.Ethical inquiries aid in serving the public good
C.Conflicting views exist between ethical systems.

根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项 涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。
When you spend time with close friends,how do you feel You may feel like you belong.
According to the Oxford dictionary,belonging is defined as a "deep sense of acceptance,inclusion,
and identification within a group,place,or context." 35
Since the beginning of human evolution,people have connected with others in order to survive.
This desire to form and grow relationships is rooted in the human brain. 36 In 1943,Abraham
Maslow was the first psychologist to write about belonging as a human need.His theory,the
Hierarchy(等级)of Needs,states that humans must acquire their basic needs,such as physiological
(生理上的)needs and needs related to safety,before they can begin fulfilling other higher,more
complex needs,like belonging or developing self-esteem.
Another groundbreaking research about belonging emerged in 1995.Mark Leary and Roy Baumeister found that humans have a universal drive to belong,which motivates their thoughts and actions.In fact,this drive is so important that they argued it was a fundamental human need—not a secondary need in a hierarchy.Their later research explored the connection between self-esteem and belonging.According to their research,self-esteem is not just about how people feel about themselves internally. 37
Although feeling connected to people is important in many settings,it becomes especially critical in schools.A2020 research analysis found that students who do not feel a sense of belonging at school are often searching for threats in their environment that signal whether they are welcome or not.38 This,in turn,can cause poorer academic performance.It can also discourage students
from forming deeper relationships.So,a student's feeling of belonging is vital for their learning.
39 Researchers will continue to analyze how personality,culture,and even social media shape how connected we feel to others.With this knowledge,people can create schools and communities where more people feel included.That way,we can develop a society that is overall healthier,happier,and more connected.
A.They may do things to increase their self-esteem.
B.This stress can use up cognitive resources needed for learning.
C.Belonging is a complex thing because it is influenced by many factors.
D.Over the years,researchers have been exploring this subjective feeling.
E.Feeling like you belong can actually improve many aspects of your life.
F.It actually serves as a warning signal that measures how much people feel accepted.
G.When you see yourself well suited toa specific environment,you feel valued and respected.

As a novice teacher at a kindergarten,I spent a lot of time observing the interaction between experienced teachers and their students.Oftentimes when kids fall,they don't start crying immediately. Usually kids will be OK until they lock eyes with an adult:one that they trust and know can do
高三年级(英语)第7页(共8页)
something for them.When I noticed this,Iso wanted it to happen to me,because that meant I had earmed a kid's trust and had proven that I was able to help them with anything.
One day it finally happened.Hearing a kid yell,"Teacher,Sam fell down."I rushed out and found Sam,who was looking puzzled.When our eyes locked,his lower lips started trembling and tears welled up in his eyes.He ran towards me and let me give him a big hug.We checked to make sure he wasn't hurt.It was in that moment that I realized something odd.Sam's vulnerability and coming to me for help was supposed to give me more power.But strangely,the power,I felt,shifted more to Sam,because he was giving me a priviledge:a gift for me to do something for someone.
With everything I learned from teaching in the kindergarten,I went to conquer other things in life.Later I landed a job to work extensively with volunteers.I loved the relationship I was building there and the feeling of being asked for help.
Over time,I increasingly pressured myself to stay busy and helpful.My self-worth became associated with my performance at work,which brought about one of the lowest moments of my life.Even then,my mind was running at a hyper speed into problem-solving mode and it didn't even occur to me that I could ask for help.I was surrounded by so many people who cared for me,but I just couldn't see them.Finally,my good friend had to literally hold me by my shoulders and force me to ask for help.With their ongoing support,I overcame one difficulty after another.
I love helping others and I firmly believe others are willing to help me.We all want to be the best self in life:strong,independent and self-reliant,but we don't always have to be.Let's start asking for help more often,because helping Sams is a privilege and a gift.
40.Why did the author want the kids to turn to her for help
41.What led to one of the author's lowest moments in life
42.Please decide which part is false in the following statement,then underline it and explain why. >The author overcame the difficulties on her own when she was having a tough time.
43.From this story,what can you learn about "help" (In about 40 words)
