Dr. Eleanor Hartwell had seen a lot in her 82 years, but she’d never expected a bearded
dragon to become her time machine. The creature rested quietly on her lap at Sunshine Meadows retirement Community, its skin warm against her hands. Around her, other residents were
experiencing similar magical moments with an extraordinary collection of animals. “I remember my first lizard (蜥蜴),” Eleanor whispered, her eyes suddenly bright. “Back in the summer of
1952, Tommy Peterson’s family had an unusual pet shop, and I was absolutely attracted.”
Rachel, in charge of animal treatment, smiles. She’d seen this phenomenon countless times
— how animals could unlock forgotten memories with a simple touch, a familiar texture (纹理), a distant smell.
Nearby, Harold was chatting vividly with a white rabbit, recounting tales of his childhood farm. Margaret was petting a bird’s soft feathers, remembering her days as a wildlife
photographer. The room was filled with renewed energy and laughter. “It’s like they’re magical memory conductors,” whispered nurse Jennifer to Rachel. “One moment they’re sitting quietly, and the next they’re transported back decades.”
As the afternoon progressed, the retirement home transformed. It was no longer a place of waiting, but a lively landscape of remembered adventures. Guinea pigs rushed about, chickens
clucked (咯咯叫), and memories danced.
Cameron Innes, who had arranged the treatment session, watched in wonder. “This isn’t just an animal visit,” he realized. “This is a time travel.”
When the session ended, the residents were different. They were brighter and more
connected. The animals had done more than provide comfort — they also reawakened something valuable: memories of one’s past. Outside, the world continued its usual pace. But inside Sunshine Meadows, time had bent and reconnected — all thanks to these animal friends.
4 ．What made Eleanor recall her first lizard
A ．The touch of a bearded dragon. B ．The smell of a familiar animal.
C ．A chat with other old residents. D ．A visit to Tommy Peterson’s pet shop.

You are given many opportunities in life to choose to be a victim or creator. When you choose to be a victim, the world is a cold and difficult place. “They” did things to you which caused all of your pain and suffering. “They” are wrong and bad, and life is terrible as long as “they” are around. Or you may blame yourself for all your problems, thus internalizing (内化) your victimization (受害). The truth is, your life is likely to stay that way as long as you feel a need to blame yourself or others.
Those who choose to be creators look at life quite differently. They know there are
individuals who might like to control their lives, but they don’t let this get in the way. They know they have their weaknesses, yet they don’t blame themselves when they fail. Whatever happens,
they have choice in the matter. They believe their dance with each sacred (神圣的) moment of life is a gift and that storms are a natural part of life which can bring the rain needed for emotional and spiritual growth.
Victims and creators live in the same physical world and deal with many of the same
physical realities, yet their experience of life is worlds apart. Victims relish (沉溺) in anger, guilt, and other emotions that cause others — and even themselves — to feel like victims, too. Creators consciously choose love, inspiration, and other qualities which inspire not only themselves, but all around them. Both victims and creators always have choice to determine the direction of their
lives.
In reality, all of us play the victim or the creator at various points in our lives. One person, on losing a job or a special relationship, may feel as ifit is the end of the world and sink into
terrible suffering for months, years, or even a lifetime. Another with the same experience may choose to first experience the grief, then accept the loss and soon move on to be a powerful
creative force in his life.
In every moment and every circumstance, you can choose to have a fuller, richer life by
setting a clear intention to transform the victim within, and by inviting into your life the powerful creator that you are.
8 ．In what way is a creator different from a victim
A ．A creator is given more challenges.
B ．Failure seldom comes to a creator.
C ．Storms are beneficial in a creator’s eyes.
D ．A victim hardly blames others for their own faults.
9 ．When people choose to think like a creator, what will happen
A ．They seldom make careless mistakes.
B ．The world seems a cold and difficult place.
C ．Life is blessed with fewer opportunities than expected.
D ．They don’t care what happens to them but think positively.
10 ．Which of the following can NOT be described as a victim’s act
A ．J. K. Rowling was rejected by a publisher and yet went on writing.
B ．Sam lost his job and abandoned himself to drinking for months.
C ．Tim failed his exam and thought he would never pass it in the future.
D ．Jessica broke up with her husband and chose to give up her own life.
11 ．Which of the following can be the best title for this text
A ．Benefits of Being a Creator.
B ．Creators: Act Now or Never.
C ．Creator or Victim: Up to You.
D ．Ways to Transform a Victim into a Creator.
D
In their recent book, The AI Con, linguist Emily M. Bender and social scientist Alex Hanna critically analyze the widespread exaggeration (夸大) about artificial intelligence (AI). They argue that the exaggerated claims of AI’s transformative power obscure the real, ongoing harms it is
already causing.
Bender and Hanna argue that companies are using AI to reduce costs by undermining
human jobs. Contrary to popular belief, “AI is not going to replace your job,” they maintain,but it will likely transform your job into one that is undervalued and less paid. Here, they refer to recent labor actions, such as the 2023 strikes by Hollywood writers and actors, as cases illustrating
workers’ resistance to AI-generated content.
In fields such as education, the use of automated decision-making systems often reflects the overconfidence in AI’s capacity. The adoption of AI, the authors maintain, overlooks fundamental human interactions, falsely assuming that “seeking the right answers is all that is needed for
education.”
The book also evaluates exaggerated claims about AI’s impact on creative and scientific
fields, particularly regarding its destructive effects on art, journalism, and scientific practice. The authors argue that AI-generated artistic creativity is, most of the time, based on statistical
probabilities rather than real understanding.
Bender and Hanna conclude their book by arguing that the exaggeration about AI primarily benefits major companies, investors, and governments that use technology and by calling for a
critical examination of AI systems: “What is being automated ” and “Who benefits... and who is harmed ”
While the book offers an interesting viewpoint, it provides only a partial view of the current AI landscape. Large language models (LLMs) have shown promising capabilities in fields such as biomedicine and ecology. This potential application is particularly noticeable considering the new path opened by agentic AI, an area the book does not cover.
12 ．The word “obscure” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to .
A ．reveal B ．hide
C ．exaggerate D ．worsen
13 ．Why do the authors mention the 2023 Hollywood strikes
A ．To prove AI has replaced numerous jobs in the film industry.
B ．To show workers’ opposition to AI’s harm to their work value.
C ．To illustrate the high cost of AI-generated content production.
D ．To argue that AI cannot create quality artistic works.
14 ．Which of the following would Bender and Hanna most likely agree with
A ．AI brings more high-paying jobs for workers.
B ．AI’s “creativity” is based on real understanding.
C ．Education should focus only on seeking right answers.
D ．AI exaggeration serves the interests ofthe capital side.
15 ．What can we learn about The AI Con from the last paragraph
A ．It fully covers the latest developments in AI.
B ．It denies the potential of LLMs in biomedicine.
C ．It ignores the new field of agentic AI.
D ．It is widely criticized by AI researchers.

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。
Review Our Worries
We spend a lot of our lives worrying, but there’s one basic thing we almost never remember to do. 16 For example, one week, we might be worried about running out of money, the
next of having offended a friend, and the third about being brought down by a rumour on social media. The worries go on and on, shifting unstoppably from one target to another. 17
What we seldom spend time doing is pausing to compare the scale of the worry with what actually happened in the end. We are too taken up with the next worry to return for a composed review.
However, if we force ourselves to perform one, a strange discovery is likely to dawn on us. 18 We almost lost our minds to worry, but we didn’t run out of money in the end, our
friend wasn’t offended, and so on. 19 Mark Twain’s famous saying comes to mind: “I have lived through many disasters, only a few of which actually happened.”
20 If we got it so wrong in the past, we’re highly likely to get it wrong now too.
Of course, we’re convinced that this is really and truly the end, but such a certainty was with us on many other situations which we appear to have sailed through well enough.
Perhaps the world is not quite as awful as we assume. Perhaps most of the drama is
ultimately unfolding in a place we need to explore and heal as fast as we can: our own minds.
A ．Our worries are nearly always out of line with reality.
B ．They ruin our precious time on Earth in the process.
C ．Ignore our worries and focus on more productive things.
D ．Go back and check how our worries matched up to reality.
E ．We might say that only 1% of our worries truly become awful.
F ．Our worries are caused by external factors beyond our control.
G ．We should use the data about the unreliability of our fears as a guide to the future.

第四部分：写作（满分 25 分）
61 ．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。
For George, every Thursday is undoubtedly his most exciting day, as it marks the time
when he can enjoy himself with Ms. Katie in the joy of art classes. Ms. Katie, George’s favorite teacher, patiently teaches him various painting techniques and offers inspiring encouragement when he encounters difficulties. In this classroom, students are allowed to freely express their
creativity.
The art studio, carefully decorated by Ms. Katie, is filled with an artistic atmosphere. On the bookshelf in the classroom, there lies a valuable treasure — a painting titled “Sunflowers”.
Ms. Katie often shares the story behind this artwork. It is a precious gift created through the joint efforts of her first graduating class. The frame (画框) is decorated with names of students
pursuing their artistic dreams, including some who have become famous artists. Ms. Katie
treasures this painting deeply, carefully wiping (擦拭) the surface every day to ensure it remains
in its best condition. This passion and respect for art have deeply inspired George and other students, making him cherish every moment spent in art classes even more.
On Thursday afternoon, George was practicing painting alone in the classroom. He
carefully held various colored paints and brushes in his arms, with his eyes filled with focus and
expectations that he planned to create a wonderful artwork. Just as he was fully involved in his
artistic world, an unexpected accident happened. He accidentally tripped over (绊倒) a chair in the classroom, losing his balance instantly. As he fell, the paints in his hands spilled all over the floor. To make matters worse, the paints landed on his beautiful “Sunflowers” painting, leaving several obvious spots.
The sudden incident sent George into a panic, his eyes filled with tears as he nearly burst
out crying. In the mess, a quick thought crossed his mind — to quickly hide the spotted painting in the storage box, perhaps Ms. Katie wouldn’t realize he was the one who messed the painting. But this thought was short-lived, because the image of Ms. Katie’s sad face in his mind made his
throat tight. Following a great struggle, he remained upset, unsure what to do. Feeling deeply lost, he finally made his decision.
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。
After school, he dragged his heavy feet to Ms. Katie’s office.

“Perhaps we can transform those spots into tiny bees on sunflowers!” Ms. Katie answered with a smile.

needed for emotional and spiritual growth. (那些选择做生活创造者的人，看待生活的方式截然不同。他们知道有些人可能总想掌控自己的人生，但不会让这些事阻碍自己。他们清楚自己有缺点，可失败时也不会责怪自己。无论发生什么，他们都有选择的余地。他们相信，自己
与生命中每一个神圣时刻的相拥共舞都是一份馈赠；而风雨是生命中自然的一部分，它能带来情感与心灵成长所需的甘霖。)”及第三段中“Creators consciously choose love, inspiration, and other qualities which inspire not only themselves, but all around them. (创造者们有意识地选择爱、灵感以及其他品质，这些品质不仅激励着他们自己，也鼓舞着身边所有的人。)”可知，当人们选择像创造者一样思考时，不会在意发生了什么，而是保持积极心态。故选 D。
10 ．推理判断题。根据第一段“When you choose to be a victim, the world is a cold and difficult place. “They” did things to you which caused all of your pain and suffering. “They” are wrong
and bad, and life is terrible as long as “they” are around. Or you may blame yourself for all your
problems, thus internalizing (内化) your victimization (受害). (当你选择做一名受害者时，世界就会变得冰冷而艰难。“他们”对你做了种种事情，给你带来了所有的痛苦与煎熬。“他们” 既错误又恶劣，只要“他们”存在，生活就糟糕透顶。又或者，你可能会把所有问题都归咎于自己，从而将这种受害心态内化。)”可知，受害者往往会认为世界是冷漠艰难的，要么责怪别人，要么责怪自己。J. K. Rowling 被出版商拒绝后仍继续写作，这是创造者的行为，不属于受害者的表现。故选 A。
11 ．主旨大意题。通读全文，结合最后一段“In every moment and every circumstance, you can choose to have a fuller, richer life by setting a clear intention to transform the victim within, and
by inviting into your life the powerful creator that you are. (在每一个时刻、每一种境遇中，你都可以选择过上更充实、更富足的生活。你只需坚定决心，转变内心的受害者心态，唤醒并拥抱那个内心强大的创造者。)”可知，文章开篇指出在生活中人们有很多机会选择成为受害者还是创造者，接着分别阐述了受害者和创造者不同的生活态度和观点，最后提到实际上每个人在生活中都会在不同时刻扮演受害者或创造者的角色，并且鼓励人们选择成为创造者以拥有更充实丰富的生活。所以文章主要讨论的是成为创造者还是受害者取决于个人选择。C 选项“创造者还是受害者：取决于你”符合文章主旨，是文章的最佳标题。故选 C。
12 ．B 13 ．B 14 ．D 15 ．C
这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了《人工智能悖论》批判对 AI 的夸大，称其掩盖危害，如贬低工作、影响教育等，还指出夸大主要利于大公司等，但该书对 AI 领域的呈现不全面。
12．词句猜测题。 根据第一段中“They argue that the exaggerated claims of AI’s transformative power obscure the real, ongoing harms it is already causing.(他们认为，有关人工智能变革力量的夸大说法 它已经造成的实际且持续的危害。)”可知，作者认为对 AI 变革力量的夸大
答案第 3 页，共 12 页
说法，与它造成的实际危害之间是“掩盖” 的关系。结合前文“critically analyze the widespread exaggeration(批判普遍的夸大宣传)” ，可推知“obscure”意为“掩盖，隐藏” ，和 B 选项 hide“隐藏”意思一致。故选 B。
13．推理判断题。根据第二段中“Here, they refer to recent labor actions, such as the 2023 strikes by Hollywood writers and actors, as cases illustrating workers’ resistance to AI-generated
content.( 在此，他们将近期的劳工行动，如 2023 年好莱坞编剧和演员的罢工，作为工人抵制人工智能生成内容的案例加以说明。)”可推知，作者引用好莱坞罢工的案例，是为了证明工人们抵制 AI 对其工作价值的贬低。故选 B。
14．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“Bender and Hanna conclude their book by arguing that the exaggeration about AI primarily benefits major companies, investors, and governments that use
technology and by calling for a critical examination of AI systems.(本德和汉纳在本书的结尾处指出，关于人工智能的夸大宣传主要有利于使用技术的大型公司、投资者和政府，并呼吁对人工智能系统进行批判性审视。)”可推知，作者认为对 AI 的夸大宣传主要利于大企业、投资者和政府，即资本方的利益。故选 D。
15 ．细节理解题。根据最后一段中“This potential application is particularly noticeable
considering the new path opened by agentic AI, an area the book does not cover.(考虑到自主型
人工智能开辟的新路径，这种潜在的应用尤为显著，而这本书并未涵盖这一领域。)”可知，该书并未涵盖代理式人工智能这一新领域。故选 C。

19．空后“Mark Twain’s famous saying comes to mind: “I have lived through many disasters, only a few of which actually happened.”(我想起了马克·吐温的名言：“我经历过许多灾难，但真正发生的很少。”)”说明了我们担心的事情发生的几率很低，E 选项“We might say that only 1% of our worries truly become awful.(我们可能会说，只有 1%的担忧真正变得可怕。)”说明只有 1%的担忧会真正发生，和后文说发生地很少相呼应，因此引起下文，符合语境，故选 E。
20 ．空后“If we got it so wrong in the past, we’re highly likely to get it wrong now too. Of course, we’re convinced that this is really and truly the end, but such a certainty was with us on many
other situations which we appear to have sailed through well enough.(如果我们过去犯了如此严重的错误，我们现在很可能也会犯同样的错误。当然，我们确信这是真正的终结，但在许多其他情况下，这种确定性伴随着我们度过我们似乎已经度过的情况。)”说明我们过去的一些经验可以对我们现在的生活有影响，也就是会指导我们的生活，G 选项“We should use the data about the unreliability of our fears as a guide to the future.(我们应该利用有关我们的恐惧
不可靠的数据来指导未来。)”说明了我们可以利用过去的恐惧来指导我们的未来，因此引起下文，符合语境，故选 G。

A. joins 加入；B. interviews 采访；C. leads 带领；D. studies 研究。根据后文“guiding people to hear the city anew” ，可知他是活动的组织者，所以是“带领”一个小团队。故选 C 项。

醒；B. impression 印象；C. promise 承诺；D. assumption 假设。这些被发现的声音，其作用在于“提醒”人们宁静的存在；后文“that peace is hidden in plain...” 是 reminder 的同位语从句，说明提醒的内容。故选 A 项。
35．考查名词词义辨析。句意同上。A. living 生活；B. hearing 听觉；C. understanding 理解； D. thinking 思考。全文围绕“倾听(listening)”和“声音(sounds)”展开，因此宁静就隐藏在“ 听觉”所及之处；短语“in plain hearing”是仿拟“in plain sight”(在显而易见之处) ，意为“就在听得见的地方” 。故选 B 项。

61 ．范文
After school, he dragged his heavy feet to Ms. Katie’s office. His hands trembled slightly, and he lowered his head, too ashamed to meet her eyes. With a choked voice, he poured out the whole accident, admitting he had ruined her beloved Sunflowers painting. Tears rolled down his cheeks as he apologized repeatedly, ready to face any punishment. Instead of anger, Ms. Katie gently patted his shoulder, her eyes full of understanding and warmth. She told him that honesty was far more precious than any perfect painting, and asked him to bring the painting to her the next day.
“Perhaps we can transform those spots into tiny bees on sunflowers!” Ms. Katie answered with a smile. She handed George fine brushes and paint, guiding him to turn the messy spots into lively, buzzing bees. Under her patient instruction, George carefully painted, his panic fading away. The once-flawed painting now became more vivid, with bees dancing among golden sunflowers. Ms. Katie praised his creativity, hanging the renewed work back in its place. That day, George learned not only an artistic trick, but also that honesty and creativity can turn mistakes into beautiful surprises.
