(2024·河北沧州·三模)Mobile messaging apps offer a superior alternative to email and text messaging and free video calling over Wi-Fi or data plans. Aside from the apps you’re familiar with, some of the best messaging apps for desktop and mobile devices are here.
WhatsApp
A mobile text messaging app designed for smartphones and tablets lets you send text messages, make VoIP (Voice over Internet Phone) calls, and share files from your phone or computer. It also lets you share your location, and you can view the other person’s location without leaving the app, thanks to a built-in map.
Snapchat
Different from most mobile communication apps, it can make messages disappear after you send it and it’s viewed. The app developers then delete them from their servers. You can also send messages without pictures and use Snapcash to send and receive money from your phone.
Telegram
A cloud-based messaging service is accessible from all of your devices. Unlike most messaging apps, it allows you to edit and delete messages even after sending them. Additionally, you can send files, and share your location. It also lets you send messages that are automatically deleted after an appointed time.
Silent Phone
This app supports one-on-one video chat, multi-party voice conferencing for up to six participants, etc. Calls and texts between Silent Phone users are encrypted (加密) end-to-end on mobile devices, considered the best for those to handle sensitive data. The built-in Burn feature lets you set an auto-destruct time for messages from one minute to three months for further security.

(2024·浙江绍兴·三模)Sandoval, who comes from Los Angeles, has traveled and filmed in over 50 countries across seven continents and now lives in China. “In 2008, tired of my studio work in the U.S, I came to
China, thinking I would be here one or two years, but it has turned out to be 16 years!” he said. He hopes his photographs will inspire others to embark on adventures as well.
Sandoval is a professional photographer and learned commercial photography at what was then the Brooks Institute of Photography. With the hope of trying something different for himself, he went to Chengdu in Southwest China to live in October 2008 and has traveled throughout the country since then.
In the beginning, he did editorial work for magazines both in and outside Sichuan, such as Vogue. Then he worked with the Sichuan tourism department to produce travel brochures, and also on ad campaigns for destinations for corporate companies.
To him, Chengdu is the capital of a laid-back lifestyle. He was delighted to see that residents, dressed stylishly or comfortably, strolled in the streets “as slowly as snails”. Almost a “walking encyclopedia” of Chengdu, Sandoval covered every corner of Chengdu and recorded Chengduese and their lives with his camera, listening to the sound of mahjong tiles being shuffled and music from traditional stringed instruments.
He also goes from place to place with his heavy travel kit. The varied culture and vast, beautiful land has kept him in China much longer than he had planned in the beginning. He remembers a wide range of adventures like exploring a local vineyard and local wine in Yinchuan City, a riding performance by a Mongolian ethnic group in the Shuidonggou Horse Riding Show, and then the totally different experience of visiting the Hainan Free Trade Port in the south.
He thinks he has done a lot in “this beautiful and vast country” with his “travel photos”. “I try to show people the beauty of where I go. I try to inspire them to travel and go to places. I’m hoping to do more international work,” he said.
4.Why did Sandoval come to China
A.He was not good at studio work. B.He wanted to step out of the comfort zone.
C.He had a preference for international work. D.He was attracted by the picturesque nature of China.
5.What does the underlined word “laid-back” in Paragraph 4 refer to
A.Leisurely. B.Simple. C.Luxurious. D.Healthy.
6.Sandoval’s experiences around China are mentioned in Paragraph 5 to show _______.
A.Sandoval’s diverse hobbies B.Sandoval’s desire for new careers
C.Sandoval’s superb photo technique D.Sandoval’s fascination for Chinese culture
7.What is the writing purpose of this passage
A.To call on readers to take up photography.
B.To praise Sandoval for spreading Chinese culture.
C.To facilitate the development of tourism in Chengdu.
D.To introduce the experience of a professional photographer.
【答案】4.B 5.A 6.D 7.D
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了专业摄影师Sandoval的故事,他来自洛杉矶,曾在全球50多个国家旅行和拍摄,后来为了寻求新的生活体验来到中国,原本计划只待一两年,却意外地在中国生活了16年,通过照片展示了中国的美丽,还记录下了成都人和他们的生活。
4.细节理解题。根据第二段中“With the hope of trying something different for himself, he went to Chengdu in Southwest China to live in October 2008 and has traveled throughout the country since then. (2008年10月,怀揣着尝试一些不同的东西的希望,他去了中国西南部的成都生活,从那时起,他就在全国各地旅行)”可知,Sandoval到中国来是因为他想走出自己的舒适区,尝试一些不同的东西。故选B项。
5.词句猜测题。根据画线词的下文“He was delighted to see that residents, dressed stylishly or comfortably, strolled in the streets “as slowly as snails”. (他很高兴看到居民们穿着时髦或舒适,在街上“像蜗牛一样慢”地散步)”可知,成都的居民们非常自如地在街上慢慢地散步。由此可知,当地的生活方式是悠闲的,画线词意思应该是“悠闲的,闲散的”,与Leisurely意思相近。故选A项。
6.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“The varied culture and vast, beautiful land has kept him in China much longer than he had planned in the beginning. He remembers a wide range of adventures like exploring a local vineyard and local wine in Yinchuan City, a riding performance by a Mongolian ethnic group in the Shuidonggou Horse Riding Show, and then the totally different experience of visiting the Hainan Free Trade Port in the south. (多样的文化和广袤美丽的土地使他在中国停留的时间比他最初计划的要长得多。他记得各种各样的冒险经历,比如在银川市探索当地的葡萄园和当地的葡萄酒,在水洞沟骑马表演中观看蒙古民族的骑马表演,然后参观南方海南自由贸易港的完全不同的体验)”可推知,这里提到了Sandoval在中国的经历,以显示他对中国文化的迷恋。故选D项。
7.推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是第一段中“Sandoval, who comes from Los Angeles, has traveled and filmed in over 50 countries across seven continents and now lives in China. (Sandoval来自洛杉矶,曾在七大洲的50多个国家旅行和拍摄,现在住在中国)”可知,文章讲述了专业摄影师Sandoval的故事。他来自洛杉矶,曾在全球50多个国家旅行和拍摄,后来为了寻求新的生活体验来到中国,原本计划只待一两年,却意外地在中国生活了16年,通过照片展示了中国的美丽,还记录下了成都人和他们的生活。因此,文章的目的应该是介
绍一位专业摄影师的经历。故选D项。
C
(2024·山东·三模)Deforestation——by clear-cutting or wildfires——has massive consequences both on climate and health. But leaving reforestation to Mother Nature can take decades, particularly as disastrous wildfires are increasing in frequency and intensity. And the time, cost and labour involved makes traditional methods of tree planting not as practical as they once were.
Bryce Jones knows how hard it is to replant forests. For four months in 2013, he worked as a tree planter throughout Canada. “There’s no technology there,” he says. “The only way you can automate reforestation is through the air.” But it wasn’t until 2019 that he hit on the one that he thought had potential: use drones (无人机) to fire specially designed seed pods (荚) into the ground—at 10 times the normal rate and costing 20-percent less than traditional methods. He proposed the idea to his brother and Flash Forest was born. His first goal was to plant a billion trees by 2025.
The team took out a loan, bought a drone and used 3D printers at Jones’s school to make casts of the pods. Now, only two and a half years later, the company has a group of drones with each able to carry several thousand pods per flight. Three operators work in a field, controlling five drones, whose flights take 15 to 20minutes. Flash Forest’s big draw is its seed pod, which contains everything seedlings (幼苗) need to promote survival. And its technology allows them to reach post-burn sites or remote areas that are difficult for traditional tree planting.
There are challenges every day, Jones says, as they work to improve the engineering, hardware, software and seed-po d recipes. Then there are the challenges presented by the climate——this year, record temperatures,record wildfires and drought. “That was something that was totally out of our control,” he says.
Unlike some traditional forms of reforestation, Flash Forest is focused on biodiversity. For Jones, the target of planting a billion trees by 2025 is just the beginning. “I have a dream that the company will plant on six continents——everywhere where our technology is needed,” he says.
8.What does the author intend to tell us in paragraph 1
A.The benefits of reforestation. B.The power of Mother Nature.
C.The way of putting out wildfires. D.The urgency to seek a planting way.
9.What are the features of Jones’ technology
A.Efficient and cost-saving. B.Innovative and back-breaking.
C.Pricey and ground-breaking. D.Challenging and time-consuming.
10.What contributes to the particular appeal of Flash Forest
A.Its drone operators. B.The frequent flights.
C.Its seed pod. D.The low cost of seedlings.
11.What can we infer about Flash Forest from the last paragraph
A.It changed its focus in the past. B.It will achieve its final target in 2025.
C.It might be available worldwide one day. D.It has replaced traditional forms of reforestation.
【答案】8.D 9.A 10.C 11.C
【导语】本文是说明文,文章主要介绍了一项新的科技应用——使用无人机进行森林再造。
8.推理判断题。根据第一段的“And the time, cost and labour involved makes traditional methods of tree planting not as practical as they once were.(通过砍伐树木或野火毁林对气候和健康都有巨大的影响。但是,把重新造林交给大自然可能需要几十年的时间,尤其是在灾难性的野火频率和强度都在增加的情况下。而且所涉及的时间、成本和劳动力使得传统的植树方法不像以前那么实用了)”可知,把重新造林交给大自然是来不及的以及用传统的种树方法不切实际,因此人们需要更先进的种树方法,体现出采用新的种植方法的紧迫性。故选D项。
9.细节理解题。根据第二段的“use drones to fire specially designed seed pods into the ground—at 10 times the normal rate and costing 20-percent less than traditional methods.(使用无人机向地面发射专门设计的种子荚,速度是正常速度的10倍,成本比传统方法低20%。)”可知,琼斯的种树技术高效且节省成本。故选A项。
10.细节理解题。根据第三段的“Flash Forest’s big draw is its seed pod, which contains everything seedlings need to promote survival. (Flash Forest最大的吸引力在于它的种子荚,里面包含了幼苗生存所需的一切。)”可知,Flash Forest最大的吸引力在于它的种子荚。故选C项。
11.推理判断题。根据最后一段的“Unlike some traditional forms of reforestation, Flash Forest is focused on biodiversity. For Jones, the target of planting a billion trees by 2025 is just the beginning. “I have a dream that the company will plant on six continents——everywhere where our technology is needed,” he says. (与一些传统的重新造林形式不同,Flash Forest专注于生物多样性。对琼斯来说,到2025年种植10亿棵树的目标只是一个开始。他说:“我有一个梦想,那就是公司将在六大洲,即在任何需要我们技术的地方种树。”)”可知,琼斯希望Flash Forest能够推广至全世界,得到广泛的应用。故选C项。
D
(2024·湖南·二模)Deepfake: synthetic (合成的) media, including images, videos, and audio, is generated by Al technology to show something that does not exist or events that have never occurred.
Examples of deepfakes have been widely spread, including a video of Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg giving a speech about his company’s plan, and a video of Elon Musk dancing and talking about the power of dreams, etc.
It’s easy for AI to produce such deepfakes using two different deep-learning algorithms (算法): one that creates the best possible clone based on a real image or video and another that detects whether the copy is fake (伪造的) and, if it is, reports on the differences between it and the original. The first algorithm produces a synthetic image and receives feedback on it from the second algorithm and then adjusts it to make it appear more real; the loop is repeated as many times as it takes until the second algorithm does not detect any false imagery.
Deepfakers often have evil motives, including creating misinformation and generating confusion. They tend to demean, terrify, and annoy, and have targeted not only celebrities but ordinary citizens as well.
Most of the academic research surrounding deepfakes focuses on the detection of huge amount of deepfake videos emerging online. One detection approach is to use algorithms to identify inconsistencies in deepfake videos. For example, an automatic system can examine videos for errors such as irregular blinking patterns of lighting. However, these approaches have been criticized because deepfake detection is characterized by a “moving goal post” where the production of deepfakes is changing and improving while detection tools are always on the way of catching them up.
However, education and medicine are two of the fields that may benefit from deepfake technology. In the classroom, historical speeches could be deepfaked to offer immersive and engaging lessons. In health care, it can improve the accuracy with which tumors (肿瘤) are spotted, making them easier to treat. Its use also permits using synthesized data instead of that from real patients to avoid privacy concerns.
12.How does AI create a deepfake video according to the passage
A.By copying and combining the fake images.
B.By constantly teaching itself to perfect the output.
C.By acquiring feedback from multiple sources.
D.By repeatedly generating realistic images from scratch.
13.What is the challenge of detecting deepfake videos
A.Ever-evolving deepfake techniques. B.Insufficient academic basis on detection solutions.
C.A massive number of false videos online. D.Limited availability of detection tools.
14.What is the author’s attitude toward deepfake
A.Supportive. B.Critical. C.Objective. D.Unconcerned.
15.What is probably the best title for the passage
A.Potential threats: AI’s new playground B.Deepfake: Human’s another helping hand
C.Artificial Intelligence: A piece of fake D.Detecting deepfake: An ongoing battle
【答案】12.B 13.A 14.C 15.C
【导语】这是一篇说明文。作者客观地对deepfake进行了客观事实阐述:AI是能轻易地制造出假视频的。
12.细节理解题。根据第三段“It’s easy for AI to produce such deepfakes using two different deep-learning algorithms (算法): one that creates the best possible clone based on a real image or video and another that detects whether the copy is fake (伪造的) and, if it is, reports on the differences between it and the original. (人工智能很容易使用两种不同的深度学习算法来产生这种深度伪造:一种算法根据真实图像或视频创建尽可能最好的克隆,另一种算法检测副本是否为假,如果是假的,则报告它与原件之间的差异。)”可知,人工智通过不断地自我训练来完善输出创建深度假视频。故选B。
13.细节理解题。根据第五段“However, these approaches have been criticized because deepfake detection is characterized by a “moving goal post” where the production of deepfakes is changing and improving while detection tools are always on the way of catching them up. (然而,这些方法受到了批评,因为深度伪造检测的特点是“移动的门柱”,深度伪造的生产在不断变化和改进,而检测工具总是在追赶它们。)”可知,检测深度假视频的挑战是不断发展的深度造假技术。故选A。
14.推理判断题。作者在文章中阐述了deepfake技术的概念、应用案例、原理,动机,也提到了其在不同应用领域的好处和坏处,可推知作者对它的态度是客观的。故选C。
15.主旨大意题。根据第一段“Deepfake: synthetic (合成的) media, including images, videos, and audio, is generated by Al technology to show something that does not exist or events that have never occurred. (Deepfake;人工智能技术生成的合成媒体,包括图像、视频和音频,用来展示不存在的东西或从未发生过的事件。)”结合作者客观地对deepfake进行了客观事实阐述:AI是能轻易地制造出假视频的。故C选项“人工智能:一块假货”最符合文义。故选C。

Gardening is a powerful outlet for creativity, enabling you to surround yourself with beauty. It can provide homegrown food for your family, keep you in touch with nature and is also an invaluable form of exercise. In short,
gardening is beneficial to both body and soul. 16 .
It all starts with good soil.
Whatever you’re growing, fertile soil is the key. 17 . It promotes root development, supplying nutrients for plant growth.
Grow vegetables that keep on giving.
18 , choose ones you can harvest more than once. Lettuce and basil are quick and easy to grow. They’ll replace their leaves every time you cut them. Vegetables like these mean continuous harvests, which is huge for keeping spirits high.
19 .
Some plants will grow tall and some will grow closer to the ground. Tall plants will shade shorter plants and prevent them getting needed sunshine. Also, give little seedlings plenty of room to stretch and grow. If they grow too close together, don’t be afraid to thin seedlings.
Save money with seeds and cuttings.
Buying all of your plants from the garden center is expensive. 20 . Reach out to friends and family who garden and ask them to share spare seeds with you. Also check to see if they have any plants you can take cuttings from. It takes longer than buying young plants, but it is definitely more satisfying and you will learn so much.
A.If you need some help
B.Size up your growing space
C.If you’re a newcomer
D.Here are some essential tips for beginners in gardening

G.However, you can grow a huge range of plants from seeds or cuttings
【答案】16.D 17.F 18.C 19.B 20.G
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何进行园艺的一些建议。
16.设空位于首段段尾,应是点出主题,引出下文,根据前文“Gardening is a powerful outlet for creativity, enabling you to surround yourself with beauty. It can provide homegrown food for your family, keep you in touch with nature and is also an invaluable form of exercise. In short, gardening is beneficial to both body and soul.(园艺
是发挥创造力的有力途径,能让你置身于美之中。它可以为你的家人提供自制的食物,让你与大自然保持联系,也是一种宝贵的锻炼方式。简而言之,园艺对身体和灵魂都有益。)”以及下文中的小标题可知,本文主要讲述进行园艺的一些建议,D项“Here are some essential tips for beginners in gardening(这里有一些对园艺初学者必不可少的建议。)”符合本文主题,并引出下文。故选D项。
17.根据前文“Whatever you’re growing, fertile soil is the key.(无论你种什么,肥沃的土壤是关键。)”可知,本段主要讲述了,学习园艺,土壤是关键,所以F项“Investing in rich soil initially create s a suitable environment(最初投资于肥沃的土壤会创造一个适宜的环境。)”符合本段主题,其中soil为同词复现。故选F项。
18.根据后文“Lettuce and basil are quick and easy to grow. They’ll replace their leaves every time you cut them. Vegetables like these mean continuous harvests, which is huge for keeping spirits high.(生菜和罗勒又快又容易种植。每次你剪掉它们的叶子,它们都会换新的。像这样的蔬菜意味着连续的收获,这对保持精神振奋非常重要。)”可知,本段建议是园艺初学者应该种植能不断收获的蔬菜来保持精神振奋,所以C项“If you’re a newcomer(如果你是一个新人)”顺接下文“choose ones you can harvest more than once(选择那些你可以收获不止一次的)”符合本段主题。故选C项。
19.设空处为本段小标题,根据后文“Some plants will grow tall and some will grow closer to the ground. Tall plants will shade shorter plants and prevent them getting needed sunshine. Also, give little seedlings plenty of room to stretch and grow. If they grow too close together, don’t be afraid to thin seedlings.(有些植物会长得很高,有些植物会长得离地面更近。高大的植物会遮蔽较矮的植物,使它们得不到所需的阳光。同时,给幼苗足够的空间伸展和生长。如果它们长得太近,不要害怕把幼苗削薄。)”可知,本段主题是建议要注意植物的生长空间,所以B项“Size up your growing space(评估你的种植空间)”符合主题,为本段小标题。故选B项。
20.根据前文“Buying all of your plants from the garden center is expensive.(从园艺中心购买所有的植物是昂贵的。)”以及后文“Reach out to friends and family who garden and ask them to share spare seeds with you. Also check to see if they have any plants you can take cuttings from. It takes longer than buying young plants, but it is definitely more satisfying and you will learn so much.(向从事园艺的朋友和家人寻求帮助,让他们与你分享多余的种子。还要检查一下他们是否有什么植物可以插枝。这比买幼苗要花更长的时间,但它绝对更令人满意,你会学到很多东西。)”可知,前文讲述从园艺中心购买所有的植物是昂贵的,后文讲述可以通过用种子和插枝来省钱,所以空处应是过渡句,G项“However, you can grow a huge range of plants from seeds or cuttings(然而,你可以从种子或插枝中种植各种各样的植物)”和前文构成转折关系,并引出下文内容,符合文意。故选G项。

(2024·河北保定·三模)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。
When I was seven years old, my family moved from Mexico to America. In Mexico, I was a cheerful girl who loved making people laugh with my jokes and inventing fun games to play with my friends. However, when I arrived in America, I found it hard to fit in, and I became quieter.
We lived in a small house with a modest yard where we grew vegetables—my responsibility. While I took pride in watching them grow, there were times when I dreamed of having a beautiful garden like my schoolmate Luella’s, with its delicate tulips (郁金香). Although Luella lived in the same neighborhood as me, we barely knew each other.
It was after a tornado that Luella and I finally became close friends.
The tornado struck on a Sunday afternoon.The gentle breeze transformed into a strong wind, and thick gray clouds filled the sky. Gradually, the tornado took shape, starting as a thin rope and growing into a large black funnel (漏斗). My entire family gathered in the bathroom, seeking shelter from the storm. Terrified, I sat close to my mom, knees in my chest. After the storm had passed, our worries and fears were replaced by relief that we were unharmed and that our house had remained undamaged.
As I stepped outside, I witnessed the extent of the damage the tornado had caused to our neighborhood. Across the street, a tall tree had fallen, crushing Luella’s garden in front of her yellow house. We hurried over to check on it. Fortunately, her family seemed to be away at the time, and no one was injured. However, her once-beautiful garden was in ruins, with the fallen tree destroying the tulips and debris (碎片) spread everywhere. I could only imagine how heartbroken they must feel seeing this.
Then my mom’s usual words rang in my ear, “It is more blessed to give than to receive,” and my family started to think about how we could help.
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。
Just at that moment, Luella’s family returned in their car.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Even after the debris was cleared, I could still sense Luella’s sorrow for her lost garden.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Just at that moment, Luella’s family returned in their car. Empathy surged within me as I saw the shock
and disbelief on their faces. I couldn’t help but approach Luella, tightly holding her hands and saying, “I’m so sorry for your loss, but thankfully you’re all right.” She weakly nodded at me, still appearing puzzled by the devastating sight. My family volunteered to help hers clean up the mess, cutting down the branches and removing the fallen trees from the yard. To uplift Luella’s spirits and bring her comfort, I tried my best to cheer her up while tidying the garden with her, during which my own joyful personality seemed to revive a bit.
Even after the debris was cleared, I could still sense Luella’s sorrow for her lost garden. My heart went out to her, knowing how much she had cherished those tulips that she had devoted so much energy to. Yet now, they were all gone. Determined to restore the beauty that once thrived, I suggested that we rebuild the garden. Luella agreed delightedly. With each bulb carefully planted and watered, the new tulip seedlings once again filled the garden, which symbolized the sprouting of a new friendship between us, as well as the turning that I finally got embraced by this new environment. My mom was right: it’s more blessed to give than to receive because when you give. You may receive something unexpected in return.

(2024·浙江绍兴·三模)Sandoval, who comes from Los Angeles, has traveled and filmed in over 50 countries across seven continents and now lives in China. “In 2008, tired of my studio work in the U.S, I came to China, thinking I would be here one or two years, but it has turned out to be 16 years!” he said. He hopes his photographs will inspire others to embark on adventures as well.
Sandoval is a professional photographer and learned commercial photography at what was then the Brooks Institute of Photography. With the hope of trying something different for himself, he went to Chengdu in Southwest China to live in October 2008 and has traveled throughout the country since then.
In the beginning, he did editorial work for magazines both in and outside Sichuan, such as Vogue. Then he worked with the Sichuan tourism department to produce travel brochures, and also on ad campaigns for destinations for corporate companies.
To him, Chengdu is the capital of a laid-back lifestyle. He was delighted to see that residents, dressed stylishly or comfortably, strolled in the streets “as slowly as snails”. Almost a “walking encyclopedia” of Chengdu, Sandoval covered every corner of Chengdu and recorded Chengduese and their lives with his camera, listening to the sound of mahjong tiles being shuffled and music from traditional stringed instruments.
He also goes from place to place with his heavy travel kit. The varied culture and vast, beautiful land has kept him in China much longer than he had planned in the beginning. He remembers a wide range of adventures like exploring a local vineyard and local wine in Yinchuan City, a riding performance by a Mongolian ethnic group in the Shuidonggou Horse Riding Show, and then the totally different experience of visiting the Hainan Free Trade Port in the south.
He thinks he has done a lot in “this beautiful and vast country” with his “travel photos”. “I try to show people the beauty of where I go. I try to inspire them to travel and go to places. I’m hoping to do more international work,” he said.
4.Why did Sandoval come to China

C.He had a preference for international work. D.He was attracted by the picturesque nature of China.

(2024·山东·三模)Deforestation——by clear-cutting or wildfires——has massive consequences both on climate and health. But leaving reforestation to Mother Nature can take decades, particularly as disastrous wildfires are increasing in frequency and intensity. And the time, cost and labour involved makes traditional methods of tree planting not as practical as they once were.
Bryce Jones knows how hard it is to replant forests. For four months in 2013, he worked as a tree planter throughout Canada. “There’s no technology there,” he says. “The only way you can automate reforestation is through the air.” But it wasn’t until 2019 that he hit on the one that he thought had potential: use drones (无人机) to fire specially designed seed pods (荚) into the ground—at 10 times the normal rate and costing 20-percent less than traditional methods. He proposed the idea to his brother and Flash Forest was born. His first goal was to plant a billion trees by 2025.
The team took out a loan, bought a drone and used 3D printers at Jones’s school to make casts of the pods. Now, only two and a half years later, the company has a group of drones with each able to carry several thousand pods per flight. Three operators work in a field, controlling five drones, whose flights take 15 to 20minutes. Flash Forest’s big draw is its seed pod, which contains everything seedlings (幼苗) need to promote survival. And its technology allows them to reach post-burn sites or remote areas that are difficult for traditional tree planting.
There are challenges every day, Jones says, as they work to improve the engineering, hardware, software and seed-po d recipes. Then there are the challenges presented by the climate——this year, record temperatures,record wildfires and drought. “That was something that was totally out of our control,” he says.
Unlike some traditional forms of reforestation, Flash Forest is focused on biodiversity. For Jones, the target of planting a billion trees by 2025 is just the beginning. “I have a dream that the company will plant on six continents——everywhere where our technology is needed,” he says.
8.What does the author intend to tell us in paragraph 1
A.The benefits of reforestation. B.The power of Mother Nature.
C.The way of putting out wildfires. D.The urgency to seek a planting way.
9.What are the features of Jones’ technology
A.Efficient and cost-saving. B.Innovative and back-breaking.
C.Pricey and ground-breaking. D.Challenging and time-consuming.
10.What contributes to the particular appeal of Flash Forest
A.Its drone operators. B.The frequent flights.
C.Its seed pod. D.The low cost of seedlings.
11.What can we infer about Flash Forest from the last paragraph
A.It changed its focus in the past. B.It will achieve its final target in 2025.
C.It might be available worldwide one day. D.It has replaced traditional forms of reforestation.

(2024·湖南·二模)Deepfake: synthetic (合成的) media, including images, videos, and audio, is generated by Al technology to show something that does not exist or events that have never occurred.
Examples of deepfakes have been widely spread, including a video of Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg giving a speech about his company’s plan, and a video of Elon Musk dancing and talking about the power of dreams, etc.
It’s easy for AI to produce such deepfakes using two different deep-learning algorithms (算法): one that creates the best possible clone based on a real image or video and another that detects whether the copy is fake (伪造的) and, if it is, reports on the differences between it and the original. The first algorithm produces a synthetic image and receives feedback on it from the second algorithm and then adjusts it to make it appear more real; the loop is repeated as many times as it takes until the second algorithm does not detect any false imagery.
Deepfakers often have evil motives, including creating misinformation and generating confusion. They tend to demean, terrify, and annoy, and have targeted not only celebrities but ordinary citizens as well.
Most of the academic research surrounding deepfakes focuses on the detection of huge amount of deepfake videos emerging online. One detection approach is to use algorithms to identify inconsistencies in deepfake videos. For example, an automatic system can examine videos for errors such as irregular blinking patterns of lighting. However, these approaches have been criticized because deepfake detection is characterized by a “moving goal post” where the production of deepfakes is changing and improving while detection tools are always on the way of catching them up.
However, education and medicine are two of the fields that may benefit from deepfake technology. In the classroom, historical speeches could be deepfaked to offer immersive and engaging lessons. In health care, it can improve the accuracy with which tumors (肿瘤) are spotted, making them easier to treat. Its use also permits using synthesized data instead of that from real patients to avoid privacy concerns.
12.How does AI create a deepfake video according to the passage
A.By copying and combining the fake images.
B.By constantly teaching itself to perfect the output.
C.By acquiring feedback from multiple sources.
D.By repeatedly generating realistic images from scratch.
13.What is the challenge of detecting deepfake videos
A.Ever-evolving deepfake techniques. B.Insufficient academic basis on detection solutions.
C.A massive number of false videos online. D.Limited availability of detection tools.
14.What is the author’s attitude toward deepfake
A.Supportive. B.Critical. C.Objective. D.Unconcerned.
15.What is probably the best title for the passage
A.Potential threats: AI’s new playground B.Deepfake: Human’s another helping hand
C.Artificial Intelligence: A piece of fake D.Detecting deepfake: An ongoing battle

第二节 (满分25分)
(2024·河北保定·三模)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。
When I was seven years old, my family moved from Mexico to America. In Mexico, I was a cheerful girl who loved making people laugh with my jokes and inventing fun games to play with my friends. However, when I arrived in America, I found it hard to fit in, and I became quieter.
We lived in a small house with a modest yard where we grew vegetables—my responsibility. While I took pride in watching them grow, there were times when I dreamed of having a beautiful garden like my schoolmate Luella’s, with its delicate tulips (郁金香). Although Luella lived in the same neighborhood as me, we barely knew each other.
It was after a tornado that Luella and I finally became close friends.
The tornado struck on a Sunday afternoon.The gentle breeze transformed into a strong wind, and thick gray clouds filled the sky. Gradually, the tornado took shape, starting as a thin rope and growing into a large black funnel (漏斗). My entire family gathered in the bathroom, seeking shelter from the storm. Terrified, I sat close to my mom, knees in my chest. After the storm had passed, our worries and fears were replaced by relief that we were unharmed and that our house had remained undamaged.
As I stepped outside, I witnessed the extent of the damage the tornado had caused to our neighborhood. Across the street, a tall tree had fallen, crushing Luella’s garden in front of her yellow house. We hurried over to check on it. Fortunately, her family seemed to be away at the time, and no one was injured. However, her once-beautiful garden was in ruins, with the fallen tree destroying the tulips and debris (碎片) spread everywhere. I
could only imagine how heartbroken they must feel seeing this.
Then my mom’s usual words rang in my ear, “It is more blessed to give than to receive,” and my family started to think about how we could help.
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。
Just at that moment, Luella’s family returned in their car.

Even after the debris was cleared, I could still sense Luella’s sorrow for her lost garden.
