Recently, my husband and three kids were playing in the Mediterranean(地中海地区）, swimming and floating in the picture-perfect sea. It was extremely beautiful in Majorca, Spain. The way the sun danced across the water and how the blue horizon was dotted with storybook sailboats were such beautiful scenes. I almost couldn’t believe my eyes.
My husband and I always dreamed about taking our kids on a trip around the world. It was something we always wanted to do “one day”. It was one of the things we talked at length about, when we imagined our life with the children we hoped we would have.
Fourteen years later, we had three boys who were growing up faster by the day. It was time to make good on those plans.
We spent dozens of hours discussing, researching and planning. We had to learn how to “road school” our kids and arrange time off from work. We renewed our passports, and then packed our bags. We showed our kids the world. It was about experiencing the dozens of flights and trains and taxis together. We showed them how wonderful, how diverse, and how amazing the world is. We wanted them to learn all that we had learned ourselves, through our own travels as young adults.
But there was something more than that: What we really wanted is to slow down time. We wanted the days to last a bit longer, and the weeks to take their time. The years with our children are going too fast. We wanted to put the brakes on (阻止) our busy lives for a year, and just be with our kids. We wanted a break from the daily morning routine of making lunches, eating breakfast and rushing out of the door in time for school. We needed a family time-out.
It was a wonderful two-month trip in Europe, full of incredible moments. And when we look back at our lives, I know we’ll be glad we did it. I know we’ll be happy that this is a chapter of the story of our family.
24．What was the author’s attitude toward the trip when planning it
A．Worried. B．Calm. C．Stressed. D．Eager.
25．What does the underlined part “make good on” in Paragraph 3 probably mean
A．Change. B．Realize. C．Improve. D．Cancel.
26．What was the author’s main purpose of taking this trip
A．To teach her children to value life.
B．To allow her children to see the world.
C．To enjoy a family breakaway from their life routine.
D．To enable her children to learn something out of class.
27．How did the author feel about their two-month stay in Europe
A．Tired. B．Satisfied. C．Inspired. D．Disappointed.
C
College and high-school teachers are expressing concern about ChatGPT, an AI program that allows people with limited writing skills to create high-quality texts. It calls into question how and why we teach writing at all. If AI can do a fairly good job at most writing tasks, why spend so much time learning writing in school
In fact, learning to write goes beyond just mastering grammar, punctuation, and sentence structure. It involves much more. For one thing, it’s about learning to turn a loose set of thoughts into a clear line of reasoning — a skill that is useful for everyone, not just those who enjoy writing or need to do a lot of it for work.
Learning to write also trains your imagination to construct the person who will read your words. It puts you in relation to someone you may not know, someone who may even not exist. When you learn to write, you learn to meet their needs in an unfamiliar context. Even ordinary assignments teach students to predict what another person knows and expects.
Writing is never simply self-expression. It’s expression to a specific audience for a specific purpose. In some cases, like a love letter, a writer knows their audience very well. In others, the audience is every bit a work of the imagination as a novel’s characters are. Writers, then, should give up trying to address the public at large, but should imagine that a friend, though not the closest friend, is listening to our talk.
When this act of imagination is done well, a reader can feel deeply understood, as if a stranger has told them some previously unknown truth about themselves. That’s how I felt reading “Difference Maker” — an essay about parenthood. While our situations were unique, naming the problem provided a deeper understanding.
It seems unavoidable that large-language models of AI will allow us to offload some of the writing tasks that students learn in school. But we can’t allow ourselves to lose the capacity to empathize (共情) with distant strangers at just the moment when we’re more able than ever to communicate with them.
28．What is teachers’ concern about ChatGPT
A．It’s a challenge to apply it to teaching. B．It’s hard to grade a paper written by it.
C．It limits students’ imagination and creativity. D．It questions the necessity of teaching writing.
29．What does the author think of learning to write
A．It helps with logical thinking. B．It is a basic skill for everyone.
C．It focuses on correct expression. D．It is closely related to social skills.
30．What makes writing effective according to the text
A．Expressing oneself. B．Targeting intended readers.
C．Conveying imaginative ideas. D．Creating attractive characters.
31．What may be a suitable title for the text
A．What AI Can’t Teach the Writing Students B．ChatGPT Writing VS Traditional Writing
C．Never Lose the Capacity for Empathy D．What Is the Future for AI Writing

It was several days before Christmas.Gray clouds covered the sky. The air was cold. The temperature was below freezing. It was snowing heavily. And the internet was out. Now I found that having the internet out could be a blessing for me. I decided to prepare my turkey meat for dinner, and get a few things done.
After the regular housework was done, I pulled the air conditioning units out of the windows and put them up for the winter. Next, I walked into the storage closet and pulled out the Christmas decorations and the artificial(人造的) tree. I unpacked my new picture and placed it lovingly on my old record player.
Then I set up my Christmas statues of Santa and Dickens' books on the shelf along with the Christmas angel.Next I unpacked, fitted and put up the tree. After that I pulled out the lights, metal wires and decorations. I put each one on the tree gently and with great care while my son Marvin played Christmas music and decorated his own room.
In no time at all, everything was done. I looked at the tree and then outside again. This time, however, it didn't seem so cold, gray, and gloomy. Instead, it felt warm and Christmas seemed to be in the air. Even the snowflakes floating in the wind felt more like a gift from Heaven. I heard “Away in a Manger" coming from my son's CD player and hummed along (跟着哼唱).
This life certainly can seem full of pains at times. It is up to us, though, to make each one a blessing(祝福) in our life. Since there are benefits without the internet, we can turn it off for a while now and then.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在下面作答。
I proposed to discuss how it felt to be without the internet at dinner.______________________

29．细节理解题。根据第二段“For one thing, it’s about learning to turn a loose set of thoughts into a clear line of reasoning — a skill that is useful for everyone, not just those who enjoy writing or need to do a lot of it for work.(首先，它是关于学习将一套松散的想法变成一条清晰的推理线——这是一项对每个人都有用的技能，而不仅仅是那些喜欢写作或需要为工作做很多事情的人)”可知，作者认为学习写作有助于逻辑思维。故选A。

上文“Nobody would like to experience failure. We all want to succeed. For those who have tried and failed, success seems difficult to understand. (没有人愿意经历失败。我们都想成功。对于那些尝试过但失败过的人来说，成功似乎很难理解。)”提出我们都想成功，但是成功不是容易的事情，选项F“我列出了四个习惯来帮助你设定目标并实现它们。”和上文存在因果关系，因为要想成功不容易，所以作者列出四个习惯助你成功，引出下文介绍的四个习惯。故选F项。
【37题详解】
本段小标题和上文“Know your values. Finding your values is in line with creating motivation. (了解你的价值观。找到你的价值观与创造动机是一致的。)”说明了解自己的价值观的重要性，选项C“坐下来，看看你最看重什么。”承接上文，介绍了解自己价值观的具体做法，引出下文“Pick a handful of things and write them down. Remind yourself of your values every day and reflect on whether you are honoring those values through your work.(挑选一些东西并把它们写下来。每天提醒自己你的价值观，看看你是否在工作中尊重了这些价值观。)”继续介绍了解自己价值观的做法。选项中what you value most和上文your values以及下文中your values语义一致，逻辑合理。故选C项。
【38题详解】
小标题以及上文“Pick a goal and focus on it. Choose one goal to start something large enough that will give you a sense of achievement, while adjusting well to your values. If you want to achieve your goal, focus is the key here. (选择一个目标并专注于它。选择一个目标，开始一件足够大的事情，让你有成就感，同时很好地适应你的价值观。如果你想实现你的目标，专注是关键。)”都在阐述专注于目标的重要性，选项G“你越专注于一个目标，你成功的机会就越大。”承接上文，继续强调专注于目标的重要性。选项中focused、goal和标题及上文中goal 、focus词汇重叠，语义一致。故选G项。
【39题详解】
小标题以及上文“Set a time for success. Set a date for success. Know when you hope to realize your goal.(为成功设定时间。为成功设定一个日期。知道什么时候你希望实现你的目标。)”都在说明为成功设立期限的重要性，选项E“保持现实，但不要给自己太多的时间。”承接上文，继续说明，虽然要保持现实，但对成功要有时间限制。选项中don’t give yourself too much time和上文中Set a time及Set a date语义相关，逻辑合理。故选E项。
【40题详解】
设空处为本段小标题。根据下文“Failure can’t be avoided when you take risks. By its very definition, the hope to succeed means you are risking failure. Many people are likely to give up far too early. Don’t fall into this trap! Use failure. Treat it as a good thing, and go on. (当你冒险时，失败是无法避免的。根据它的定义，成功的希望意味着你冒着失败的风险。许多人可能会过早放弃。别掉进这个陷阱！使用失败。把它当作一件好事，然后继续。)”可知，要想成功，失败往往是不可避免的，因此不要因为失败而放弃。选项B“不要因为失败而放弃。”可以作为本段小标题。选项中failure和下文中Failure词汇重叠，语义一致。故选B项。

Recently, my husband and three kids were playing in the Mediterranean(地中海地区）, swimming and floating in the picture-perfect sea. It was extremely beautiful in Majorca, Spain. The way the sun danced across the water and how the blue horizon was dotted with storybook sailboats were such beautiful scenes. I almost couldn’t believe my eyes.
My husband and I always dreamed about taking our kids on a trip around the world. It was something we always wanted to do “one day”. It was one of the things we talked at length about, when we imagined our life with the children we hoped we would have.
Fourteen years later, we had three boys who were growing up faster by the day. It was time to make good on those plans.
We spent dozens of hours discussing, researching and planning. We had to learn how to “road school” our kids and arrange time off from work. We renewed our passports, and then packed our bags. We showed our kids the world. It was about experiencing the dozens of flights and trains and taxis together. We showed them how wonderful, how diverse, and how amazing the world is. We wanted them to learn all that we had learned ourselves, through our own travels as young adults.
But there was something more than that: What we really wanted is to slow down time. We wanted the days to last a bit longer, and the weeks to take their time. The years with our children are going too fast. We wanted to put the brakes on (阻止) our busy lives for a year, and just be with our kids. We wanted a break from the daily morning routine of making lunches, eating breakfast and rushing out of the door in time for school. We needed a family time-out.
It was a wonderful two-month trip in Europe, full of incredible moments. And when we look back at our lives, I know we’ll be glad we did it. I know we’ll be happy that this is a chapter of the story of our family.
24．What was the author’s attitude toward the trip when planning it
A．Worried. B．Calm. C．Stressed. D．Eager.
25．What does the underlined part “make good on” in Paragraph 3 probably mean
A．Change. B．Realize. C．Improve. D．Cancel.
26．What was the author’s main purpose of taking this trip
A．To teach her children to value life.
B．To allow her children to see the world.
C．To enjoy a family breakaway from their life routine.
D．To enable her children to learn something out of class.
27．How did the author feel about their two-month stay in Europe
A．Tired. B．Satisfied. C．Inspired. D．Disappointed.
C
College and high-school teachers are expressing concern about ChatGPT, an AI program that allows people with limited writing skills to create high-quality texts. It calls into question how and why we teach writing at all. If AI can do a fairly good job at most writing tasks, why spend so much time learning writing in school
In fact, learning to write goes beyond just mastering grammar, punctuation, and sentence structure. It involves much more. For one thing, it’s about learning to turn a loose set of thoughts into a clear line of reasoning — a skill that is useful for everyone, not just those who enjoy writing or need to do a lot of it for work.
Learning to write also trains your imagination to construct the person who will read your words. It puts you in relation to someone you may not know, someone who may even not exist. When you learn to write, you learn to meet their needs in an unfamiliar context. Even ordinary assignments teach students to predict what another person knows and expects.
Writing is never simply self-expression. It’s expression to a specific audience for a specific purpose. In some cases, like a love letter, a writer knows their audience very well. In others, the audience is every bit a work of the imagination as a novel’s characters are. Writers, then, should give up trying to address the public at large, but should imagine that a friend, though not the closest friend, is listening to our talk.
When this act of imagination is done well, a reader can feel deeply understood, as if a stranger has told them some previously unknown truth about themselves. That’s how I felt reading “Difference Maker” — an essay about parenthood. While our situations were unique, naming the problem provided a deeper understanding.
It seems unavoidable that large-language models of AI will allow us to offload some of the writing tasks that students learn in school. But we can’t allow ourselves to lose the capacity to empathize (共情) with distant strangers at just the moment when we’re more able than ever to communicate with them.
28．What is teachers’ concern about ChatGPT
A．It’s a challenge to apply it to teaching. B．It’s hard to grade a paper written by it.
C．It limits students’ imagination and creativity. D．It questions the necessity of teaching writing.
29．What does the author think of learning to write
A．It helps with logical thinking. B．It is a basic skill for everyone.
C．It focuses on correct expression. D．It is closely related to social skills.
30．What makes writing effective according to the text
A．Expressing oneself. B．Targeting intended readers.
C．Conveying imaginative ideas. D．Creating attractive characters.
31．What may be a suitable title for the text
A．What AI Can’t Teach the Writing Students B．ChatGPT Writing VS Traditional Writing
C．Never Lose the Capacity for Empathy D．What Is the Future for AI Writing

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。
It was several days before Christmas.Gray clouds covered the sky. The air was cold. The temperature was below freezing. It was snowing heavily. And the internet was out. Now I found that having the internet out could be a blessing for me. I decided to prepare my turkey meat for dinner, and get a few things done.
After the regular housework was done, I pulled the air conditioning units out of the windows and put them up for the winter. Next, I walked into the storage closet and pulled out the Christmas decorations and the artificial(人造的) tree. I unpacked my new picture and placed it lovingly on my old record player.
Then I set up my Christmas statues of Santa and Dickens' books on the shelf along with the Christmas angel.Next I unpacked, fitted and put up the tree. After that I pulled out the lights, metal wires and decorations. I put each one on the tree gently and with great care while my son Marvin played Christmas music and decorated his own room.
In no time at all, everything was done. I looked at the tree and then outside again. This time, however, it didn't seem so cold, gray, and gloomy. Instead, it felt warm and Christmas seemed to be in the air. Even the snowflakes floating in the wind felt more like a gift from Heaven. I heard “Away in a Manger" coming from my son's CD player and hummed along (跟着哼唱).
This life certainly can seem full of pains at times. It is up to us, though, to make each one a blessing(祝福) in our life. Since there are benefits without the internet, we can turn it off for a while now and then.

29．细节理解题。根据第二段“For one thing, it’s about learning to turn a loose set of thoughts into a clear line of reasoning — a skill that is useful for everyone, not just those who enjoy writing or need to do a lot of it for work.(首先，它是关于学习将一套松散的想法变成一条清晰的推理线——这是一项对每个人都有用的技能，而不仅仅是那些喜欢写作或需要为工作做很多事情的人)”可知，作者认为学习写作有助于逻辑思维。故选A。

If AI can do a fairly good job at most writing tasks, why spend so much time learning writing in school (大学和高中教师对ChatGPT表达了担忧，这是一个人工智能程序，可以让写作技能有限的人创作高质量的文本。这引发了我们如何以及为什么要教写作的问题。如果人工智能在大多数写作任务中都能做得相当好，那为什么要花那么多时间在学校学习写作呢？)”可知，虽然人工智能可以完成高水平的写作任务，但有些东西是它无法做到的，例如写作可以把一套松散的想法变成一条清晰的推理线，写作训练人们的想象力，针对不同的目标读者写作方式不同。因此A选项“人工智能不能教给写作学生的东西”最符合文章标题。故选A。

【分析】这是一篇说明文。作者介绍了四个习惯来帮助人们设定目标并实现它们。
【36题详解】
上文“Nobody would like to experience failure. We all want to succeed. For those who have tried and failed, success seems difficult to understand. (没有人愿意经历失败。我们都想成功。对于那些尝试过但失败过的人来说，成功似乎很难理解。)”提出我们都想成功，但是成功不是容易的事情，选项F“我列出了四个习惯来帮助你设定目标并实现它们。”和上文存在因果关系，因为要想成功不容易，所以作者列出四个习惯助你成功，引出下文介绍的四个习惯。故选F项。
【37题详解】
本段小标题和上文“Know your values. Finding your values is in line with creating motivation. (了解你的价值观。找到你的价值观与创造动机是一致的。)”说明了解自己的价值观的重要性，选项C“坐下来，看看你最看重什么。”承接上文，介绍了解自己价值观的具体做法，引出下文“Pick a handful of things and write them down. Remind yourself of your values every day and reflect on whether you are honoring those values through your work.(挑选一些东西并把它们写下来。每天提醒自己你的价值观，看看你是否在工作中尊重了这些价值观。)”继续介绍了解自己价值观的做法。选项中what you value most和上文your values以及下文中your values语义一致，逻辑合理。故选C项。
【38题详解】
小标题以及上文“Pick a goal and focus on it. Choose one goal to start something large enough that will give you a sense of achievement, while adjusting well to your values. If you want to achieve your goal, focus is the key here. (选择一个目标并专注于它。选择一个目标，开始一件足够大的事情，让你有成就感，同时很好地适应你的价值观。如果你想实现你的目标，专注是关键。)”都在阐述专注于目标的重要性，选项G“你越专注于一个目标，你成功的机会就越大。”承接上文，继续强调专注于目标的重要性。选项中focused、goal和标题及上文中goal 、focus词汇重叠，语义一致。故选G项。
【39题详解】
小标题以及上文“Set a time for success. Set a date for success. Know when you hope to realize your goal.(为成功设定时间。为成功设定一个日期。知道什么时候你希望实现你的目标。)”都在说明为成功设立期限的重要性，选项E“保持现实，但不要给自己太多的时间。”承接上文，继续说明，虽然要保持现实，但对成功要有时间限制。选项中don’t give yourself too much time和上文中Set a time及Set a date语义相关，逻辑合理。故选E项。
【40题详解】
设空处为本段小标题。根据下文“Failure can’t be avoided when you take risks. By its very definition, the hope to succeed means you are risking failure. Many people are likely to give up far too early. Don’t fall into this trap! Use failure. Treat it as a good thing, and go on. (当你冒险时，失败是无法避免的。根据它的定义，成功的希望意味着你冒着失败的风险。许多人可能会过早放弃。别掉进这个陷阱！使用失败。把它当作一件好事，然后继续。)”可知，要想成功，失败往往是不可避免的，因此不要因为失败而放弃。选项B“不要因为失败而放弃。”可以作为本段小标题。选项中failure和下文中Failure词汇重叠，语义一致。故选B项。
