Standing 70 feet above the water, most would be seized by fear. Yet, Kaylea Arnett is “as cool as a cucumber”. As a former diving star, Arnett’s journey is not one of careful planning, but of a “free spirit” stepping into the unknown. After graduating with a unique combination of philosophy and language science, Arnett faced a crossroads. Without a set plan, she followed her passion for diving to Macau, China, joining the circus. Moving from traditional 10-meter platforms to 25-meter heights was a psychological challenge. “Going twice as high as I was used to was scary at first, but once you do it, it’s really addicting,” she recalled. This marked her first major shift: transforming fear into an “addictive” pursuit of heights.
When the global public event froze the entertainment industry, Arnett adjusted to the change by running a coffee shop in Mexico. Eventually, she secured a highly-regarded spot in Cirque du Soleil’s “O”—a water show held at the Bellagio in Las Vegas. For three years, she enjoyed the stability of performing for cheers rather than scores. However, a quiet urge began to grow. She started questioning her choices, disturbed by the possibility of future regrets. “It’s always been knocking on the door, and I’ve just never opened that door yet,” she admitted. This internal struggle between the “laid-back lifestyle” of shows and the high-pressure world of competition defined her next turning point.
Deciding to “check every bucket list”, Arnett threw herself back into competition in 2024. Her return was triumphant, placing her among the world’s top high divers with a potential Olympic future in 2028.
Reflecting on her wandering path, Arnett views herself as a “tumbleweed”, a nod to her Texas roots. “Wherever life takes you, just be able to adapt to that situation,” she said. For Arnett, life is an ocean of possibilities where the “wind of destiny (命运)” guides her toward ever-greater heights.
24. What can we know about Arnett from paragraph 1?
A. She prefers a perfect plan.
B. She is an adaptable adventurer.
C. She is afraid of heights when standing above water.
D. She was greatly influenced by the major she chose.
25. Why did Arnett quit the water show?
A. She received a better job offer. B. She found the work there was repetitive.
C. She feared missing out on future opportunities. D. She had a strong desire for public recognition.
26. What does the underlined word “triumphant” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Remarkably successful. B. Secretly arranged.
C. Completely unexpected. D. Technically demanding.
27. Which of the following may Arnett agree with?
A. One should outgrow the external forces. B. One should welcome changes with flexibility.
C. It is never too late to set a specific goal. D. Exhibiting strict self-discipline is key to success.
C
In Kentucky, a unique site serves as both a farm and a power plant. While large-scale solar arrays (大规模光伏阵列) often use sheep to manage grass and plants, the developer Silicon Ranch is testing a more ambitious project: integrating solar energy with cattle. This practice, known as agrivoltaics, aims to maximize land use by combining renewable energy with food production.
“The combination of solar and cattle could transform the renewable energy landscape,” says Nick de Vries, Silicon Ranch’s chief technology officer. By using vast stretches of grazing land (牧场), companies can expand solar capacity without taking up land for agricultural businesses. This is vital in regions like Kentucky, where land competition is a major concern.
However, cattle present unique challenges compared to sheep. “They’re very large animals,” de Vries explains. “Cattle brush against things. They like to push.” Unlike sheep, which easily fit under solar panels, cattle can damage equipment. To solve this, Silicon Ranch developed CattleTracker. The main idea is that panels are easiest to damage when they are standing straight up. The CattleTracker system adjusts the panels to stay horizontal when cattle are nearby, preventing the animals from running into them.
Furthermore, the system goes well with traditional farming. Workers move cattle periodically to allow grass to recover. Solar panels can operate with normal tracking when cattle are away and switch to “limited tracking” mode when they return. This marriage of technology and agriculture also focuses on managing biodiversity and increasing the soil’s capacity to store carbon.
Despite a shift in government policy and the reduction of renewable energy subsidies (补贴), de Vries remains optimistic. While government-funded research has helped us understand the environmental effects of solar grazing, he believes the industry should not rely only on subsidies. “You should aim for a good business solution, and then find what’s going to work in other places,” he states. If successful, this model could turn a climate challenge into a sustainable (可持续的), net-positive solution for both energy and food.
28. Why is the project in Kentucky significant?
A. It resolves land use conflicts. B. It boosts local sheep farming.
C. It reduces solar energy costs. D. It creates new jobs for the natives.
29. What is the core function of the CattleTracker system?
A. To track the movement of cattle. B. To monitor the health condition of cattle.
C. To increase the efficiency of solar panels. D. To protect equipment from potential damage.
30. What does de Vries suggest for the industry’s future?
A. Expanding scientific research scale. B. Seeking more government subsidies.
C. Pursuing market-driven growth models. D. Restructuring government energy policies.
31. What would be a suitable title for the text?
A. Agrivoltaics: Saving Kentucky’s Agriculture
B. Challenges in Raising Cattle on Solar Farms
C. Technology’s Influence on Kentucky’s Animals
D. New Partnership: Solar Power Meets Cattle Grazing
D
As AI systems take on increasingly humanlike tasks, there’s been a push to understand how they “see” the world. “Our brains use clever ways to pick out details from our busy surroundings,” says Eiji Watanabe, an associate professor of neurophysiology. Relying on them often leads to optical illusions (视错觉), which were once thought to be unique to humans. Yet, certain AI models fall for the same visual tricks, particularly those designed to copy human brain pathways.
In his study, Watanabe and his team tested a deep neural network called “PredNet” by showing it still images that humans view as moving, such as the “rotating (转动) snakes” illusion. It was found that the AI’s predictive system generated “illusory motion” just like a human brain did. For example, after being trained on thousands of natural videos, PredNet began to predict future frames based on past experience. When faced with specific patterns, the AI mistakenly “saw” rotation in a still image, matching the human experience.
While copying human perception (感知) may be a sign of advanced AI, it may also lead to unexpected errors in critical tasks. The same mechanisms (机制) that allow for rapid processing can cause visual errors. In AI-driven technologies like medical imaging or self-driving cars, misinterpreting a still object as moving could lead to serious consequences.
Watanabe’s study also found that creating a perfect artificial visual system was difficult. For instance, even though AI can copy the illusion, it lacks a key human feature: the “attention mechanism.” If a human fixes their eyes on one spot, the illusion often stops; however, the AI continues to perceive motion across the entire image.
However, Watanabe sees these mistakes as a valuable opportunity to understand the human brain. When AI falls for an illusion, it supports theories like “predictive coding” — the concept that we see what we expect to see. These models offer a way to study complex brain functions and sensory differences without the moral concerns of human experimentation.
32. Which aspect of AI systems does Watanabe’s study focus on?
A. Their overall processing speed. B. Their perception of the world.
C. Their precision in sorting images. D. Their application in medical fields.
33. What causes AI to experience the “illusory motion”?
A. Its reliance on previous visual knowledge.
B. Its inability to detect some specific patterns.
C. Its absence of an important attention mechanism.
D. Its design independent of human brain pathways.
34. How does AI differ from humans in visual perception?
A. It lacks a focus-based self-correction system.
B. It processes visual details at a slower rate.
C. It fails to distinguish motion from rotation.
D. It ignores crucial details of still images.
35. What value does Watanabe find in AI’s making visual mistakes?
A. It shows the disadvantage of predictive coding.
B. It offers a moral way to study the human brain.
C. It explains the complexity of sensory differences.
D. It helps to create perfect artificial visual systems.

I used to think being an adult was about trying to control the waves of chaos in life. I’d look at the unorganized mess in my early 20s—a period filled with missed deadlines — and couldn’t help but contrast it to the tidy way my mother organized her life. ___36___
But now that I’ve lived a bit longer in this unpredictable world, I realize my mother actually taught me a different, more profound lesson: ___37___ True maturity is not the absence of trouble; it’s the strength found within it.
___38___ While we were living there, it received its first heavy rain in nearly a century. We quickly discovered that the city lacked a proper drainage (排水) system. Within hours, the landscape changed completely. Every road turned into a rushing river and — as my mother struggled against the flood to drive us to school — every roundabout became an unexpected lake.
I remember the terrifying feeling of weightlessness as our car began to float. I remember the muddy water coming through the doors, soaking (浸湿) everything. ___39___ She didn’t scream; she patiently waited for us to stop floating and hitting other cars before we finally reached the safety of dry land.
Looking back, I realize my mother’s hands were white and her voice was thin with fear. ___40___ That is the secret of adulthood: you cannot stop the storm, but you can learn to get through it with great balance and steady hands.
A. She wasn’t fearless, but just stayed brave.
B. Fortunately, the heavy rain stopped after a short while.
C. It’s about how you respond to chaos, not how you try to control it.
D. This realization comes from a memory of our time in a foreign country.
E. Following my strict schedule was the only way to keep my life on track.
F. But most importantly, I was impressed by how calm and steady my mother was.
G. Entering her tidy house makes you realize the benefits of keeping things in order.

My nine-year-old daughter looked up at me, hoping I would join her for a walk on the beach. But my never-ending to-do list jumped instantly, and my eyes drifted to the dinner dishes piled high in the sink, a silent refusal forming in my mind.
I planned to tell her we could go tomorrow—I had to wash the dishes, and the whole day’s busyness exhausted me. Staring at her eager eyes, I remembered making the same excuse the night before, and I could not help but notice the disappointment in her eyes. It was our first summer living by the beach, and my daughter’s love for the beach was far beyond my imagination. Spending the entire day playing in the sand and waves was never enough for her. She whispered that summer was slipping away, and I knew she was right— summer in New England was always short, and if I kept putting it off, we might miss it entirely. Finally, I told her we could go but only for a quick walk. She rushed to put on her flip-flops (拖鞋).
As we walked along the shoreline, she stopped now and then to gaze at the beach beneath her feet and the sky in the distance. She would glance at the setting sun and the beautiful pink-and-orange sky. But my mind was always elsewhere, barely noticing the beautiful scenery around us. After just fifteen minutes, I urged her to head back home.
My attitude did not change at all over the next week. Every night, I accompanied her along the beach walk unwillingly, never truly calming down to enjoy the moment. To me, it was just another task I had to finish, bringing no joy at all.
Then one day, everything changed. As we approached the dunes (沙丘), the color of the sky began to shift gradually. When we reached a place, a breathtaking sunset unfolded before our eyes— shades of orange, yellow, and red lit up the sky like a natural painting. My daughter and I stood there in surprise, all my restlessness and impatience fading away in that very moment.
注意：1. 续写词数应为150个左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The next evening, instead of fearing the beach walk, I turned to my daughter.

【答案】 Alumni Reunion
Last month, our school held an “Alumni Open Day” event, which drew great attention and participation.
During the event, alumni from different years gathered on campus. They visited the newly-built library and advanced laboratories, reminiscing about their school days. There were also inspiring speeches delivered by successful alumni, sharing their career experiences and life lessons.
The event received an overwhelming response. Alumni expressed their gratitude for the opportunity to reconnect with their alma mater. Current students were motivated by the alumni’s achievements.
【答案】 The next evening, instead of fearing the beach walk, I turned to my daughter. “How about we take a longer walk tonight and maybe even have a picnic?” I suggested, my voice filled with genuine enthusiasm. Her eyes widened with delight, and she quickly agreed, running to grab a blanket and some snacks. As we strolled along the beach, I made a conscious effort to engage with her, pointing out interesting shells and asking about her day. The sunset painted the sky in hues of gold and pink, and for the first time, I truly appreciated the beauty around us.
From that evening on, our beach walks were no longer a task. They became a cherished time for us to bond and create lasting memories. I learned to let go of my worries and embrace the present moment, finding joy in the simple things like the sound of the waves and the warmth of the sun on my skin. My daughter, too, seemed happier and more content, knowing that she had my undivided attention. Those beach walks became a highlight of our summer, a reminder of the importance of slowing down and savoring life’s little pleasures.
