Good morning, everyone.
Today, I am thrilled to share with you a technological item in our life: Artificial Intelligence (AI). AI involves the development of computer systems designed to perform tasks that normally require human intelligence.
By automating routine tasks and providing innovative solutions to complex problems, AI has already made waves in various aspects. It is transforming healthcare with personalized treatments, enhancing security with facial recognition, and even teaching languages with unmatched efficiency.
Looking ahead, AI is bound to become an indispensable part of our lives. While the future with AI holds immense promise, it’s also crucial to address ethical issues to make sure it benefits humanity.
Thank you.
67. 读后续写
To my surprise, Ashley insisted on reporting the “Deerfield Stole Perry” story. “This is the very story we need to attract more readers,” she argued. To convince her, I defended that if we wrote this article, we would be telling a lie. Noticing her hesitant expression, I further explained the potential harm it would cause to the player and our paper’ s reputation. After some discussion, Ashley finally gave in, “OK, let’s try with real stories.” Then I went to gather all the necessary information to write an article about Perry and the precious memories we shared over the years.
On Thursday, the paper came out with the headline “Bye-Bye, Perry” on the front page. Soon, it sparked heated discussions among students about Perry. Many were disappointed with Perry’s sudden departure but were comforted by the fact that he was in good care. The story also evoked sweet memories of Perry. Some students even requested to share their stories of him in our paper! Seeing the story’s success, Ashley came to me and said sincerely, “You are right! It’s a good story.” Her words brought me a great sense of fulfillment. Indeed, true stories might not always draw attention, but they have the power to touch and connect.
1. 【原文】M: Did you know that reusing rainwater can significantly reduce overall water usage at home
W: I've recently started collecting it for my kitchen garden. The plants got a good drink from the rain container when there are a few days without rain.
2.
【原文】M: Virtual classrooms allow students worldwide to learn together in real time. Isn't that fantastic In a way you can travel the world while staying at home.
W: Yeah, let's compare the prices with local schools, shall we
3.
【原文】M: Who won yesterday's race at the Athletic test Carmen. I wanted to watch it, but I had a study group to attend.
W: No one. The race got called off because of the weather. It's due to take place tomorrow.
M: I'll make time to watch it.
4.
【原文】M: I read about machines being used to plant trees compared to one person, planting each machine can do 33% more trees.
W: Sounds good. Do they really work well though If so, they could really speed up reforestation efforts.
5.
【原文】M: I’m glad you came back. I wasn’t sure if you would after you fell last time. Hitting the Ice can be quite painful.
W: It was, but it only made me want to get better and the only way to do that is practice.
6-7
【原文】M: I’m thinking about working in artificial intelligence, but it is a bit scary with all the changes.
W: It’s a field that always changes, but you have to think about the chances it gives us to fix real problems.
M: True, it’s been used more and more in our daily lives, like in smart homes and self driving cars. Indeed, there are lots of chances.
W: Right. Keeping up with new stuff and always learning are important. Have you thought about what area you like best
M: The idea of machines improving on their own is really interesting. There’s something about it.
8-10
【原文】M: I’ve started going to the local library more often, and I’m surprised by how much it offers besides books. What a discovery.
W: Right They have computers, classes, study and meeting rooms and rooms for community events.
M: Last week I went to a class there on using computers better and it was very helpful. The people who work there really help everyone learn.
W: Definitely. The staff are great. They’ll walk you through using all the technology. They also have activities for kids and older people, which is wonderful for families and keeps older people busy.
M: It’s become an important place in our town, plus everything there is free. Shall we go there together this weekend
W: Sure, I’ll pick you up from your home.
11-13
【原文】W: You also walked to school when you were a kid, right, David
M:Yes, walking to school builds character. My parents said my dad used to tell me how he marched to school uphill through winter snow and summer heat. It was tough, but he said it was a good thing. Why do you ask
W: I was thinking about Johnny. When should we start getting him to walk or bike to school
M:You know, I think my parents were kind of right. But back then, sidewalks were wider, there weren't as many cars as there are today, and people drove slower. I agree that facing some challenges is good, but times have changed, my dear.
W: Sure, but we shouldn't be too protective. It's not even two miles. A little challenge won't hurt him. We could drive him on bad days and let him go on his own when the weather is fine. He needs exercise and independence, right
M: Maybe we can ride bikes along with Johnny on those long summer evenings before school starts.
W: Alright, let's see how it goes.
14-17
【原文】M: Marisol, thanks to the colorful photos and videos of your fantastic food forest you posted on social media, thousands of people have started to explore the Joy of growing plants. How and why did you start
W:It started as a personal diary for recording what I had done. Friends encouraged me to post more often and then more people found me and it went viral.
M: I see you have a variety of plants. What would you recommend for a beginner
W: Herbs would be a good choice. They're very useful, grow fast and are hard to kill. They also attract good insects and can help improve the soil.
M: Good, what new plants are you thinking about for next season
W: I'll add some bushes, strawberries and some nuts. These short plants will add shade and in a few years produce a tasty, nutritious crop. And after a couple of years of failure, I will try growing cabbage again.
M: What would you say to someone thinking of creating their own food forest
W: Observe the area, which means understanding your soil and conditions. Start small and go slow. Use space both underground for roots and above. For leaves. Understand each plant's needs and functions.
M: Inspiring. We look forward to learning more about your growing journey.
18-20
【原文】M: Today, as I reflect on my first year of volunteering at the local animal shelter, I want to share a story that touched my heart. Early in the year, we rescued a shy, hurt dog named benny. Benny was more than just another rescued animal. He became a symbol of hope and the power of love for us. As we brought him back to health, we all realize there was something special about this dog. It's hard to put into words that feeling of connection with an animal. All of us put in extra care for benny.
As he trusted us more, he became more playful and smarter and would wag his tail. He took training well too. Eventually when he saw a young couple come to find a dog. Then he wagged his tail like never before. The couple loved him at first sight and adopted him on their first visit. Every so often they would contact and send photos of him. I know as a volunteer, I am helping not just animals but people. This experience has given me lessons on sympathy and teamwork.
It gives me great Joy to know that I really do make a difference. Volunteering here isn't just about the animals, it's about bringing us together on two legs or four, we're all stronger together. I encourage all of you to consider joining the team in some way. 考场佳作，以供参考
Version l:VR眼镜
Good morning, everyone. As rounds of technological revolution take the world by storm, numerous high-end products have come into being, influencing our lives in the long run. Among them, I'd like to talk about VR headsets today.
Known as “virtual reality," the device can offer visual simulations of a variety of scenes, ranging from natural landscapes you want to explore to historical relics you are eager to visit. The greatest advantage of this device is that the moment you position it on your head, the view spreads out instantly, transcending you through time and space. Its ability to bridge real-life confinements makes VR a powerful tool for recreational use, profoundly transforming the ways we enjoy amusement today. And I anticipate that, in the foreseeable future, VR headsets will be able to display the intricate terrains of some previously unapproachable areas, assisting humans in geological exploration.
I firmly believe that VR will lead us to a better future.
Thanks for listening!
Version 2: Chat GPT
Good morning, everyone. Thanks to the rapid development of technology, our life has been greatly impacted and improved. Today, I’ feel privileged to introduce a life-changing innovative product- Chat GPT.
Featuring multiple database and high accuracy, Chat GPT, a user-oriented chatbot, has gained more and more attention. If you throw a question such as “Please write a poem.” or “Draw a picture of a flower” to it, it can cater to your personal demand within seconds! With the stunning ability, Chat GPT has made our life more convenient. If properly utilized, it can play an important role in documents drafting, essays polishing or even education upgrading! It is Chat GPT that inspires our mind and liberates our hands.
All in all, Chat GPT has integrated into our daily life and brought welfare to more and more individuals. With the development of technology, I believe Chat GPT will glow in the near future and lift our human's heavy burden to some degree!
Thanks for listening!
Version 3: 3D 打印
Good morning, everyone. I'm really excited to be here today to talk about a scientific product that's having a big impact on our lives the 3D printing machine.
The 3D printing machine creates an incredible world where people’s wildest imagination meets cutting-edge technology, which has a deep impact on various domains. In the food industry, it may serve as a new way to produce complicated dishes. In the art world, it assists the creation of aesthetically wonderful and conceptually rich artworks.
What’s also worth mentioning is that it can come into our campus and encourage students to design their own items and think outside the box.
Nowadays, 3D printing technology is still growing rapidly, and we can anticipate that in the near future, we’ll have more interactions with it in our daily lives.
Thank you for listening!
Version 4：电动汽车
Good morning, everyone. As a representative of the school English club, I'm privileged to be here to deliver a sketch of one of the influential scientific hits in our daily life-- the electric cars.
I believe that everyone is no stranger to this heated-discussed vehicle, which made its debut in the 2010s. Entirely powered by electricity, they feature a low carbon footprint, lower fuel costs and electric features. Stepping into it, you would be fascinated by its cyber style, large LED screens and Al assistant. Facing the hazard of global warming, the presence of electric cars is a perfect substitute for fuel-powered cars, thus cutting down carbon emissions and leading to a greener earth.
Hopefully, electric cars can continue to thrive with improvement in safety and longer range, contributing to a more eco-friendly lifestyle.

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
Climate change could have large impacts on food production across the world. Rising Temperatures might boost crop production in cold regions but negatively impact production in warmer areas. Wheat and rice — which benefit from more CO2 in the atmosphere — could see growing output, while corn and sorghum (高粱) could see a decline with warmer temperatures.
Farmers can adjust their practices to a warmer climate in four key ways:
A recent study by experts modeled three adaptation methods — changing WHAT, changing WHEN and changing both of them. The chart below shows their impact on the output of corn, rice, sorghum, soybean (大豆) and wheat.
These three adaptation methods can already go some way to relieve climate pressures in some countries. But, of course, we don’t only care about crop production at the global level. If farmers in particular regions — especially those that are most food-insecure — cannot adapt to climate change, this is still a major problem. So there is more we can do in the future.
21. What should farmers change if they are short of money and labour
A. WHAT. B. WHERE. C. HOW. D. WHEN.
22. Which crop may benefit most if farmers plant improved varieties
A. Rice. B. Corn. C. Sorghum. D. Wheat.
23. What should be done in the future
A. To adopt the three methods. B. To help the farmers in need.
C. To focus on crop production. D. To move to colder regions.
B
I arrived home from work, my mind racing. I was scheduled to perform an experiment using a pricey piece of equipment, but I had spent the whole day worrying about the experiment which was on the top of my agenda, and I amazingly longed to shut off my anxious thoughts. So after dinner, I made a cup of hot chocolate, stretched myself on my sofa, and opened a page. Almost instantly, my mind left behind the details of experimental design and stepped into a land of monsters, magic dust, and man-like bears comprising a wonderful world distinct from my daily life. It was exactly what I needed.
Growing up, I was virtually never a big fan of novels. My classmates would be crazy about the latest Harry Potter book, while my copy sat collecting dust on a shelf. Instead, I would choose to read through the reference books related to my disciplines for better grades. After I started graduate school, extracurricular reading didn’t appeal to me at all but I spent most of my time on campus digesting research papers and textbooks and my mind couldn’t handle processing fact-filled nonfiction books at home, too. So I knew that I needed to find a way to enjoy reading again.
To help me stick with it, I made a New Year’s resolution: I would read two fiction books per month for the entire year. The result was an almost instant appreciation of fiction, along with many unexpected results including ones that have benefited my schoolwork.
What surprised me the most was how much I learnt. Some of the best books I read were fictional stories of history happening in a realistic setting. I learned about life in different countries as well as struggles people there faced during difficult periods in their histories. The books have helped me build sympathy and understanding, with an unexpected benefit: I’ve started to think more deeply about the diversity of issues in the scientific community and could serve it, heart and soul.
24. What did the author do to wipe out the anxiety
A. He drowned it in chocolate. B. He conducted an experiment.
C. He slept on the sofa leisurely. D. He escaped into a fantasy world.
25. What does the author mean by the underlined part in paragraph 2
A. He was too busy to take good care of his books.
B. The latest Harry Potter book was popular among students.
C. Reading novels was a waste of time.
D. The Harry Potter book wasn’t as good as expected.
26. How did the New Year’s resolution benefit the author
A. More sympathy went out to him.
B. His moral values were strengthened.
C. He learned much about religious diversity.
D. He gained new insight into his academic discipline.
27. What’s the best title of the text
A. Novels: Love at Second Sight
B. The Power of Research Papers
C. Reading: A Lifelong Hobby
D. The Benefits of History Reading
C
From an airplane, cars crawling down the highway look like ants. But ants aren’t like cars. They don’t get stuck in stop-and-go traffic. Researchers are now studying these insects. They want to learn how to program self-driving cars that do not jam up.
The free flow of traffic becomes unstable as the density (密度) of cars increases on a highway. At 15 vehicles per mile per lane, one driver tapping their brakes can trigger a wave of jam. “It’s a kind of phase transition,” like water turning from a liquid to a solid form, says Katsuhiro Nishinari, a mathematical physicist at the University of Tokyo who studies these jamming transitions.
Ants can maintain their flow even at high densities. So what’s their secret In a recent study, researchers recorded ants on trails, using traffic-engineering models to analyze their movement. What did they find The ants travel in groups of three to twenty. They move at nearly constant rates. They keep good distances between one another. And they do not speed up to pass others.
Human drivers at rush hour are hardly likely to follow such rules. “We’re maximizing the interests of individuals. That’s why, at a given point, you start to have a traffic jam,” says study co-author Nicola Pugno. But self-driven cars, if they one day become common, could have more cooperative programming. In one vision of this future, autonomous vehicles would share information with nearby cars. This would improve traffic flow, perhaps, the researchers suggest, by prioritizing constant speeds and headways or by not passing others on the road.
This vehicle network would be similar to ant trails. The insects use scent to control behavior while interacting with one another. “There is no leader,” but this organization emerges anyway, says Noa Pinter-Wollman, a behavioral scientist studying ants at the University of California, Los Angeles. And in both ant and vehicle traffic, this type of distributed system can be “very, very strong and flexible”, Nishinari says.
Today’s drivers can learn at least one thing from ants. By leaving room between their car and the one ahead of them, drivers can absorb a wave of braking in dense traffic conditions that would otherwise be grown into a big traffic jam with no obvious cause. “Just keeping away,” he says, can help traffic flow smoothly.
28. What is the purpose of the study
A. To dig out ants’ secret in keeping their flow.
B. To improve autonomous cars’ function.
C. To better traffic rules on highways.
D To restrict drivers’ behaviour at rush hour.
29. Why does the author mention the “phase transition” in the second paragraph
A. To illustrate a phenomenon. B. To emphasize an opinion.
C. To propose a solution. D. To describe a process.
30. Ants can keep smooth flow because ___________.
A. they interact with each other through scent
B. they move in groups of flexible sizes
C. they follow a strong leadership
D. they travel at steady speeds with safe distances
31. How can the future vehicle network be updated
A. By lowering the density of traffic flow.
B. By sharing real-time information with other drivers.
C. By keeping away with in-time braking.
D. By programming a more cooperative pattern.
D
After Alexander Pushkin was shot in a duel (决斗) in 1837, crowds of mourners formed in Saint Petersburg. When the wagon carrying the much loved poet’s body reached Pskov province, where he was to be buried, admirers tried to pull the vehicle themselves.
Today’s celebrity funerals tend to involve the public largely digitally rather than in person. But people are passionate all the same. In the past few months, grief has coursed around the Internet for Milan Kundera, and most recently, Michael Gambon. If you stop to think about it, such expressions of strong feelings for writers and actors are odd, even irrational.
Unlike other kinds of grief, this one is not rooted in personal intimacy. If you ever interacted with a cherished author, it was probably during a book tour when she signed your copy of her novel. Maybe you once locked eyes with a musician during a live concert and he smiled at you, but actually he did not even know you.
Objectively, sorrow makes sense when a star dies young or violently. Had she not died at 27, who knows what music Amy Winehouse would have added to her already impressive collections of work The death of a long-lived and fulfilled artist, however, is far from the saddest item in an average day’s headlines. And while most ordinary people sink into oblivion, these celebrities live on in their output. Why, then, are these losses felt so widely and keenly
One interpretation is that departed celebrities are merely the messengers. Part of your past —the years in which the musician was the soundtrack, the writer your ally— can seem to fade away with them. The grief can be seen as a form of gratitude for the harmony and joy they supplied.
More importantly, the passing of an artist is an occasion for exchanges of ideas. In an atomized age, in which the default tone is critical, a beloved figure’s death is a chance to share positive feelings and memories with fellow admirers. These sad occasions are the parting gifts of these artists.
32. Why does the author mention Milan Kundera and Michael Gambon in paragraph 2
A. To prove that celebrities’ funerals tend to attract wider public attention.
B. To illustrate why people express their sadness at the loss of those celebrities.
C.. To show that people’s grief over celebrities’ death is ridiculous and impractical
D. To demonstrate that people’s mourning for celebrities seems strange and unreasonable.
33. The underlined phrase “sink into oblivion” in paragraph 4 probably means ________.
A. are upset B. are desperate C. are helpless D. are forgotten
34. What can we learn from the passage
A. People won’t mourn for celebrities unless they have intimate relationships with celebrities.
B. It’s natural that people mourn for celebrities dying young but not for those long-lived ones.
C. People feel sad for the passing of celebrities because of the mental nourishment received.
D. People attend celebrities’ funerals, either in person or on the Internet, to express their loyalty.
35. What’s the author’s attitude towards public mourning for the celebrities
A. Neutral. B. Supportive. C. Skeptical. D. Concerned.
第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Have you ever walked away from a conversation with the sinking feeling that you said too much Not because you were impolite or inconsiderate — but because you tried to explain yourself to someone who didn’t really want to understand ____36____
Over-explaining happens often in our daily life. This behavior originated in early survival strategies. For those raised in emotionally unpredictable households, clarity may be a form of self-protection. Anticipating others’ reactions, smoothing things over, or presenting a “bulletproof” reason may prevent punishment or emotional fallout. ____37____ People who have ever undergone trauma (创伤) tend to explain a lot to avoid conflict or rejection.
Regardless of origin, the pattern is the same: We spend unnecessary energy trying to justify our right to take up space, to say no or to make choices others might not like. ____38____ Clear language like “I’ve made my decision.” and “Let’s shift the conversation.” can actually do the trick. These direct statements prioritize emotional honesty without over-disclosure. And they don’t leave space for negotiation where none is guaranteed.
____39____ You spend less of it in practicing, defending, or recovering, and you needn’t always react to others’ discomfort. You also start attracting a different kind of relationship. It is based not on performance or submission, but on mutual respect. ____40____ You begin healing the part of you that believed love had to be earned through explanation. The version of you who felt unsafe being misunderstood learns a new truth: Your worth was never conditional or dependent on being agreeable or persuasive.
A. When you stop over-explaining, you reclaim emotional energy.
B. Have you ever explained to show your politeness and consideration
C. Like any behavioral change, this takes practice.
D. But it’s not impossible to rid ourselves of the trouble.
E. If so, you are not alone.
F. But maybe the biggest shift is internal.
G. Over-explaining can also come from the way your brain is wired by past experiences.

One of the most useful things I’ve learned is how to do nothing. In my family, being still wasn’t ____41____. My father was a workaholic with three jobs and a perfectionist. Everything he did had to be done just right. There was no room for error in anything, a philosophy that ____42____ his daughters as well. I absorbed the message that doing nothing wasn’t allowed and that everything had to be the best to gain his ____43____. This thought ____44____ me into marriage: I struggled to be the perfect wife, mother, and homemaker until ____45____ forced me to seek help.
That’s when I discovered yoga. It became part of my life and I could fit it in around my other duties. With the help of books and videos, I ____46____ myself the poses and learned intentional breathing, the foundation of yoga. Then came the ____47____, which was not what I expected. At first, ____48____ took hold of me when I was doing yoga, for I could hear my father blaming me for being ____49____ and I had to shake off my ____50____ about doing nothing. But I gradually realized this “useless” stillness was valuable for me and kept me ____51____ when the world was pushing me in opposite directions.
____52____ have passed since I began my breathing practice. My daughter is an adult now, with children of her own. Each morning I still find time to sit quietly and watch my ____53____. Doing nothing helps me enjoy the daily life and focus on what ____54____. I’ve come to understand that sometimes, the most ____55____ thing we can do is slow down and listen to the quiet within.

67. 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。
In our weekly staff meeting, our editor Ashley was not pleased with the quality of our reporting. “Our readership is way down. We need better stories for this Thursday’s school newspaper. Does anybody have any ideas ” she said.
I handed her my article about our basketball team beating Deerfield High School the previous night by one point. “Sports stories are fun,” she said, “but not good enough for the front page. We need something to really get people’ s attention.”
After our meeting, we left the newsroom together and heard someone screaming, “Perry is missing!” Perry was a big red parrot and had been our school mascot (吉祥物) for ten years. He played an important role in students’ lives, both in and out of class. He had also been a constant presence at school events, inspiring a sense of unity among students.
Everyone gathered around Perry’s empty cage, heartbroken. Suddenly, a student from the crowd came over and showed me a photo. “You’re a reporter for the school paper, right I happened to take this yesterday,” he said. In the photo was a Deerfield High School basketball player with something large hidden under his shirt around the size of a parrot.
“He must have stolen Perry to get back at us for winning the game!” Ashley cried. We hurried back to the newsroom, agreeing to run the photo on the front page with the headline “Deerfield Stole Perry.” “This is just the story we need. Everyone will read it,” Ashley said confidently.
After she left, I took a closer look at the photo. The clock in the background read 4:15 pm, but our game against Deerfield hadn’t started until 4:30 pm. Why would the boy have taken Perry before we even played An uneasy feeling came over me that we might have falsely accused someone.
I went to Perry’s usual caretaker to ask if he knew Perry was missing. “He’s not missing. He’s retired. He’s ready for some quieter days,” he said. Learning the truth, I immediately told Ashley and suggested writing a story to say goodbye to Perry.
注意:
