第一节 （共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分）
A
A 2026 survey focusing on four outbound travel（出境游）plans was released by a domestic travel service platform. With the aim of providing targeted and data-driven references for the tourism industry, the survey was conducted among 8 000 potential travelers aged 18 to 45 from 15 provinces, including Liaoning and its neighboring provinces. It centers on core indicators to gain insights into people’s outbound travel preferences.
As cross-border tourism rebounds steadily, outbound travel has grown increasingly popular among people for leisure and vacation. The survey is intended to identify the strengths and weaknesses of different travel plans, understand travelers’ core needs, and provide effective support for travel agencies to optimize their products. In sum, it bridges the gap between travelers’ core needs and travel agencies’ products. Key survey data are shown in the table below：
●7-Day Thailand Tour
8, 800 per person
5 days and 6 nights
Low visa application difficulty
●10-Day Italy Tour
14, 800 per person
10 days and 8 nights
Medium visa application difficulty
●8-Day New Zealand Tour
12, 300 per person
8 days and 7 nights
86, satisfaction rate
Low medium visa application difficulty
●9-Day Brazil Tour
18, 600 per person
9 days and 7 nights
88, satisfaction rate
High visa application difficulty
The main factors influencing travelers’ choices of outbound travel plans include travel cost, travel safety and convenience of visa application. Most respondents expressed hopes for more free activity time in the journeys, professional bilingual local guides, and transparent evaluations of cooperative hotels and restaurants.
21. What festival should you attend if you want to try Thai food
A. Taste of Chicago. B. Taste of Thailand.
C. Family Style Fest. D. Delta Hot Tamale Festival.
22. What can you enjoy at Taste of Chicago
A. Street parades. B. Music concerts. C. Fashion shows. D. Cooking classes.
23. What do Family Style Fest and Delta Hot Tamale Festival have in common
A. They are held in NYC. B. They are one-day events.
C. They require tickets. D. They combine food with fashion.

At a rehabilitation center in Beijing, a 76-year-old man who once relied on a caregiver can now walk independently with the help of a robotic exoskeleton that learns his movement patterns. Such technologies, once considered science fiction, are becoming more common as China responds to the aging of its population.
The eldercare robot industry is expanding quickly. Provinces such as Beijing and Jiangsu have released political plans encouraging the adoption of intelligent robots in institutions and households. China has also led the creation of an international technical standard for eldercare robots, setting requirements for design and safety. Moreover, with over 310 million Chinese aged 60 or above, many seniors need support with daily activities, or emotional companionship. Robotics could offer a solution, but some are still in the early stages of development compared to industrial robots. Some users are already beginning to enjoy the convenience these technologies provide. Nursing homes in tech-centered cities like Shenzhen integrate robots that play chess with residents, provide mobility support, and deliver AI-assisted therapy.
Experts say eldercare robots still face multiple obstacles before they can be deployed on a large scale. On the consumer side, some seniors remain skeptical. “Robots are too cold and emotionless. I just can’t accept them,” said Qi Suling, a 66-year-old resident. “If a machine malfunctions, it could hurt me,” she added. Another major hurdle is access to real-world data needed to improve algorithms and the user experience. To improve algorithms and user experiences, companies need large volumes of real world training data, said Li Junjie, an algorithm specialist. “We have limited opportunities to enter seniors’ homes or eldercare facilities,” Li said. The high prices of many eldercare robots represent another significant barrier, as they are well beyond the reach of most households.
Experts argue that breakthroughs in core technology, affordability, and data access are essential for eldercare robots to improve lives for millions of older adults. If we can overcome these barriers, these innovations may significantly support healthy aging and improve lives for millions of older adults.
24. Which major factor contributes to the rapid development of eldercare robots in China
A. A decline in traditional medical services. B. Policy support and rising demand.
C. The elderly weigh the use of Elderly Robots. D. Financial investment in eldercare centers.
25. Which is NOT the barrier to the large-scale application of eldercare robots
A. Insufficient access to real-life usage. B. High prices which are unaffordable.
C. Lack of protection from high-tech firms. D. Human resistance to the robots in the elderly.
26. What can be inferred about the future of eldercare robots
A. They will replace human caregivers in the short term.
B. Their development will slow down as prices increase.
C. They may be more popular with younger population.
D. They can greatly improve the lives of older adults.
27. Which is a suitable title for the text
A. High-Technology is Used in Medical Care
B. The Elderly Weigh the Use of Elderly Robots
C. Robots May Elderly Expands with Ageing Population
D. An Old Man Benefits from Elderly Robots Industry
C
Rock climbing may seem like only a sport filled with dangers. But experts say it offers participants many physical and mental health benefits that aren’t always found in other sports.
Climbing as a sport became popular in the 1980s, with the nation’s first indoor climbing gym opening in Seattle. Over 10 million Americans had participated in climbing by 2020, and sport climbing appeared the following year at the Tokyo Summer Olympics. And more people are climbing than ever — thanks to hit movies such as Free Solo and The Dawn Wall. Today, there are over 500 indoor climbing walls in the United States.
Rock climbing actually helps build muscle strength. What’s more, the more you climb, the better your balance is, and lifting your body up to the top of your body and improve the way you move your body, ” said Nick Wilkes, owner and lead instructor at Peak 5 Climbing. “It’s about awareness of your body. ”
Many of rock climbing’s skills lie in determining and remembering your climbing route（路线）in advance. You also need to solve problems on the wall. 4 skills like this in training your mind with unexpected challenges.
People prefer rock climbing partly because of the teamwork and safety support in the process, especially in roped climbing. Roped climbers have a partner on the ground called a protector, who holds the rope to manage the force, catch any falls and lower the climber. Throughout a climb, the two must continuously communicate about such concerns as needed rope force, when the climber wants to rest and when it’s time to come down.
“In order for me to be a better climber, I have to communicate clearly with the person behind me so he knows how I’m feeling, when I need a break or if I want to change the climb in any way, ” said Lindsey Wends, fitness trainer of Atlanta-based Break Free Fitness.
28. What has caused more people to start climbing
A. Its physical health benefits. B. More indoor climbing gyms in the US.
C. Popular movies about climbing. D. Its appearance at an Olympic sport.
29. What is Nick Wilkes’ attitude towards rock climbing
A. Positive. B. Doubtful. C. Concerned. D. Disagreeable.
30. What is the reason for roped climbers to communicate with their protectors continuously
A. To choose safer climbing routes. B. To share moods and feelings clearly.
C. To learn better climbing skills. D. To record the climbing process.
31. What is the main purpose of the text
A. To tell the history of climbing. B. To compare climbing with other sports.
C. To explain the popularity of rock climbing. D. To introduce the basic rules of climbing.
D
AI image generators have made a giant leap forward in a remarkably short period. These sophisticated systems are now capable of creating human faces that are not only convincing but often perceived as more realistic than actual human ones. This phenomenon, termed “hyper-real poses”, poses a significant challenge to digital trust. However, a recent collaborative study by researchers from the UK points to a promising path: improving our collective AI-face detection capabilities through specialized, targeted training.
The researchers examined the face-assessing abilities of 664 volunteers, categorized into two distinct groups: “super-recognizers” — individuals who possess a rare, naturally superior ability for facial recognition — and those with typical recognition skills. The experiment involved two core tasks designed to test estimation and logic. In the initial task, volunteers evaluated a single image to determine its origin; in the subsequent task, they were presented with a pair of faces — one real and one synthetic — and asked to identify the fake.
In the control group that received no prior instruction, the data revealed a worrying trend. Super-recognizers correctly identified AI faces 81 percent of the time, while typical recognizers dropped to a mere 51 percent. Given that half the images were AI-generated, both groups performed significantly worse than random chance（50 percent）. This statistical gap suggests that AI portraits can easily deceive the human brain’s natural processing systems.
To counter this risk, the study introduced a brief five-minute training intervention. Participants were trained to look for “tell-tale signs” — subtle biological flaws in human skin alongside strange or changing features in the hair. After this training, the accuracy of super-recognizers boosted to 91 percent. In contrast, while typical recognizers improved to 51 percent, they remained at the level of a coin flip.
“As AI images are increasingly exploited for illegal purposes like identity theft, testing detection methods is crucial from a security standpoint, ” explains researcher EllieNoyes. The findings highlight that while technology evolves, human expertise remains bining innate talent with professional training may be our best defense in verifying digital identities and securing the future of online interaction.
32. The study mainly examines participants’ .
A. logical reasoning B. reaction speed C. technical knowledge D. observational skills
33. What does the training session primarily focus on
A. Improving the general speed of visual assessment.
B. Identifying the subtle biological impact of digital fakes.
C. Recognizing artificial traces in biological features.
D. Understanding the technical principles of AI systems.
34. What is the significance of the 64 percent accuracy rate mentioned in paragraph 5
A. It confirms the potential of combining gift with practice.
B. It represents the maximum limit of human recognition.
C. It shows the similarity between human and AI.
D. It indicates that most people can be trained to spot false images.
35. What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A. Technical evolution will eventually eliminate identity theft.
B. Professional training is more essential than natural talent.
C. Human expertise remains vital in digital defense.
D. The country risks of AI are currently overstated.

Last month, I made up my mind to start running regularly to keep fit and build up my body. At the very beginning, I was full of energy and highly motivated. I believed that I would stick to the habit and become stronger soon. However, after only three days of running, my whole body felt exhausted and painful all over. My legs ached badly, and I even fell out of breath after a short run. Gradually, I lost my initial passion and wanted to give up running completely.
My best friend Lily soon noticed my negative state and my intention to quit. She came up to me with a warm big smile and sincerely encouraged me not to give up halfway. She told me that persistent exercise would gradually bring me better physical health and more self-confidence in daily life. She also promised to get up early and run with me every morning to keep me company.
I was deeply moved by Lily’s kindness and consideration. I opened up to her and shared my real worries. I feared that I lacked perseverance and could not keep going in the long run. What’s more, I truly thought long-distance running was too challenging and tough for me. Lily patted my shoulder gently and comforted me patiently. She said we would take it slow and make gradual progress. Most importantly, she promised that she would never leave me alone on the way to keeping fit. Hearing her comforting words, I regained my courage and made up my mind to give running another try.

The activity aimed to help students better understand traditional Chinese culture and learn about modern digital technology. During the event, experts delivered a wonderful lecture on the Palace Museum’s history and digital protection methods. In addition, students’ AI creative works combining ancient cultural elements with modern technology were on display, impressing all attendees greatly.
Through the activity, we gained deeper insight into cultural heritage. We also realized technology serves as a powerful tool to carry forward traditional culture.
读后续写范文：
The next morning, Lily arrived at my home on time. Instead of pushing me to run fast, she adjusted our pace suitably. We jogged slowly along the quiet street, breathing fresh air and chatting casually to ease my tension. Whenever I felt tired and wanted to stop, Lily would cheer me up and encourage me to hold on for a little longer. With her company, the tough running exercise became much easier and more enjoyable.
From then on, we kept running every morning. We never skipped a single day, even on cool or rainy mornings. Gradually, my body got stronger, and I no longer felt exhausted after running. More surprisingly, I became more energetic and confident in my study and life. I truly learned that perseverance makes progress, and sincere friendship gives us the strength to stick to our goals.

Good morning, everyone. Today is Friday, November 21st, and I’m here to inform you about some changes to the city’s bus routes. These changes are part of the city’s plan to improve public transportation and reduce traffic jam.
The new bus routes will take effect next Monday. There will be three new bus lines: Line 15, Line 22, and Line 30. Line 15 will connect the downtown area to the airport, which will make it easier for travelers to get to and from the airport. Line 22 will serve the residential areas in the eastern part of the city, and Line 30 will go to the new shopping mall in the west.
We understand that these changes may cause some inconvenience at first. To help passengers get used to the new routes, we will have staff at major bus stops next week to answer questions. You can also check the official website for detailed route maps and schedules. If you have any other questions, you can call our service hotline at 078-9039-0972. The hotline is open from 8 a. m. to 8 p. m. every day.
