Onstage, 21-year-old Jiang Zhounan brings stories to life, while offstage, she finds great joy and excitement in her own passionate story with speeding motorcycle. Born in 2003, Jiang represents the elegance of the stage and the freedom of the open road. Her life combines the grace of traditional Yueju Opera with the thrill of biking.
Her journey into the world of art began with a serendipitous (凑巧的) moment in her second year of junior middle school. During a singing practice, Jiang’s clear voice and heartfelt emotion captured the attention of her teacher. Recognizing her talent, the teacher handed her an enrollment brochure for the Zhejiang Vocational Academy of Art, setting her on the path to becoming a Yueju Opera performer.
At the academy, Jiang was fortunate to find a teacher who provided academic guidance and personal support, allowing her to fully engage herself in the study of the art form. Upon graduating in 2022, she joined the Yueju Opera troupe (剧团) at the Nantong Art Theater, where she focuses on laodan (senior female roles) while also performing zhengdan (young female roles). Her solid vocal skills and nuanced (细致入微的) performances quickly made her a standout member of the troupe. Yueju Opera is a traditional style of opera popular in the Yangtze River Delta region. Its male roles are typically played by women.
But in her free time, Jiang embraces a different kind of performance. Shortly after starting her career, she met a group of female motorcyclists during an outreach performance in the countryside. Their confident, spirited behaviour fascinated her, stimulating a passion for the speed and the freedom of motorcycling. In 2022, she bought herself a motorcycle, transforming from a graceful Yueju Opera performer to a dynamic, cool rider.
Jiang doesn’t see her two personas as conflicting. She believes everyone has multiple dimensions to their character, with the stage reflecting just one side of her life and motorcycling marking the shift from work to personal life.
24．Why did Jiang Zhounan pursue a career in Yueju Opera
A．Her teacher recognized her talent.
B．She won a local talent competition.
C．She was inspired by an opera singer.
D．She was interested in performing arts.
25．What roles does Jiang Zhounan specialize in at the Yueju Opera troupe
A．Only young female roles. B．Only senior male roles.
C．Both senior and young female roles. D．Both senior and young male roles.
26．Which of the following can best describe Jiang Zhounan
A．Talented and shy. B．Devoted and adventurous.
C．Responsible and gentle. D．Traditional and clumsy.
27．What message does the author seem to convey in the text
A．The early bird catches the worm.
B．When one door closes, another opens.
C．The grass is always greener on the other side.
D．A man has many sides like a multi-faceted diamond.
A third of the Arctic’s tundra (北极冻土), forests and wetlands have become a source of carbon emissions (排放), a new study has found, as global heating ends thousands of years of carbon storage.
For thousands of years, Arctic land ecosystems have acted as a deep-freeze, holding potential emissions in the tundra. But ecosystems in the region are releasing more CO2 into the atmosphere with rising temperatures, a study published in Nature Climate Change concluded.
More than 30% of the region was a source of CO2, according to the analysis, rising to 40% when emissions from wildfires were included. By using data from 200 study sites between 1990 and 2020, the research demonstrates how the Arctic’s tundra, forests and wetlands are being transformed by rapid warming.
The shift is occurring despite the Arctic becoming greener. “One place where I work in Alaska, when the tundra unfreezes, the plants that absorb CO2 grow more, so you can sometimes get an uptick in carbon storage”, Sue Natalia, the lead researcher said. “But the tundra continues to unfreeze and the microbes (微生物) take over. You can visually see the changes in the landscape.”
There is a growing concern about the natural processes that regulate the Earth’s climate, which are being affected by rising temperatures. Together, the planet’s oceans, forests, soils and other natural carbon sinks absorb about half of all human emissions, but there are signs that these sinks are under stress.
The Arctic ecosystem has been gathering carbon for thousands of years, helping cool the atmosphere. In a warming world, the researchers say, its carbon cycle is beginning to change and needs better monitoring. Dr Anna Virkkala, the author of the study, said, “The carbon in the Arctic soil is close to half of the Earth’s soil carbon pool, much more than in the atmosphere. This huge pool should ideally stay in the ground. But now, rising temperatures are speeding the breakdown of plant and animal remains, which releases stored carbon back into the air as greenhouse gases like CO2, creating a cycle that fuels even more warming.”
28．What’s the main reason for the release of carbon from Arctic soils
A．Tundra defrosting. B．Wildfire erupting.
C．Tree over-cutting. D．Wetland disappearing.
29．What does the underlined word “uptick” in paragraph 4 mean
A．Boost. B．Loss. C．Limit. D．Release.
30．What can we infer about the Arctic’s soil carbon pool according to Dr Anna Virkkala
A．It has less carbon than the air. B．It ought to be stored in the tundra.
C．It can break down organic matter. D．It is less affected by global warming.
31．What is the main idea of the text
A．Arctic greening cuts carbon emissions. B．More carbon is being released in Arctic.
C．Arctic carbon storage is growing rapidly. D．Extreme climate makes Arctic inhabitable.
The growing interaction between humans and artificial intelligence (AI) is shaping a new way of thinking, known as System 0. This new cognitive (认知的) framework exists outside the human mind and works as an external “thinking assistant”. System 0 works alongside the two established models of human thought: System l, which is fast, intuitive (直觉的) , and automatic, and System 2, which is slower, more analytical, and reflective.
Just as an external drive allows us to store data that are not present on the computer, and we can work by connecting our drive to a PC wherever we are, AI, with its powerful processing and data-handling capabilities, can represent an external circuit to the human brain capable of enhancing it. Hence the idea of System 0, which is essentially a form of “external” thinking that relies on the capabilities of AI.
By managing enormous amounts of data, AI can process information and provide suggestions based on complex algorithms (算法) . However, unlike intuitive or analytical thinking, System 0 can perform calculations, make predictions, and generate responses without truly “understanding” the content of the data it works with.
The integration of system 0 into human cognition raises some concerns. One of the most pressing ones is the potential damage to our critical thinking and reasoning abilities. If we blindly trust the output of system 0 without questioning it, we risk losing our ability to think independently, leading to a weaker capacity for innovation and creativity. At the same time, it is important to acknowledge the potential benefits of system 0 in increasing our cognitive capabilities and addressing complex challenges that may be beyond the capacity of human intelligence alone.
Despite the polarized visions on the topic of the evolution of AI, we recommend that this revolutionary system be the object of a deep, shared reflection on how we plan to integrate it into the future of human thought. To ensure that AI remains a tool to enhance — rather than decrease — our cognitive autonomy, clear boundaries must be established.
32．What is the purpose of paragraph 1
A．To state AI’s influence on daily life. B．To introduce a new cognitive model.
C．To compare three thinking systems. D．To discuss AI’s role in decision-making.
33．Which can best describe the essence of System 0
A．A deep meaning seeker. B．An analytical thinking pioneer.
C．A smart decision-maker. D．An external cognitive enhancer.
34．What is the author’s tone carried in paragraph 4
A．Pushy. B．Indifferent. C．Objective. D．Dismissive.
35．What will the follow-up paragraph most probably talk about
A．Moral dilemmas in human-AI integration. B．Possibly promising prospects of System 0.
C．Technical challenges in sharpening System 0. D．Specific guidelines on using System 0 critically.
I frequently see online videos where a group of girls travel to a destination as friends but leave as enemies. It’s generally assumed that these friendship breakups result from different travel preferences or lack of conflict resolution skills. 36 Luckily, there are ways to minimize arguments and ensure your friendships survive your next group trip.
37 Regarding accommodations, for instance, you’d rather check into a Youth Hostel than a five-star hotel so that you can spend more on good meals. What need you prioritize should get across to your friends, in which case there’ll be no surprises when you’re trying to pick out an Airbnb or make dinner reservations.
Do your friends prefer a structured itinerary (行程) that starts at 7 a.m., or would they like to rise at their leisure and wing it for the day Are they down to party until dawn, or do they want to call it a night by 10 p.m. 38 The same goes for boundaries. Better to know what makes them uncomfortable beforehand than have to negotiate mid-trip.
Are you one who rigidly sticks to a travel itinerary and allows zero flexibility 39 I find it helpful to have a loose itinerary shared before the trip. You can always revise your daily schedule, but some structure is key, or else you’re spending half your vacation researching.
Some people need a break to recharge or sleep and others may want to work out or read a book. 40 It’s everyone’s vacation, so everyone should get independent periods to use as they wish.
A．It pays to tour with friends.
B．I believe it’s a mixture of both.
C．Don’t forget to block out alone time.
D．Be frank about your budget and preferences.
E．If the answer is yes, you’ll have to make a change.
F．There is no point in complaining about external disturbance.
G．Setting schedule expectations helps you plan the trip effectively.

四、语法填空（本大题共1小题）
阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Archaeologists have unearthed the smallest known cat fossil (化石) at the Hualongdong site in eastern China. It has been identified as 56 extinct species of leopard cat named Prionailurus kurteni, which was so small that it could 57 (comfortable) fit in a hand. It was comparable 58 size to the two smallest existing feline (猫科) species — the rusty-spotted cat and the black-footed cat.
The 59 (origin) biology research supported the belief of a common ancestor for the leopard cat, the domestic cat and Pallas cat. However, no fossil evidence had been identified before the 60 (discover). Forest habitats 61 leopard cats live are not ideally suited to bone preservation.
Finding the fossil of an inclined first molar (臼齿) means 62 (have) evidence from its jawbone and teeth that supports the idea of a common ancestor for all three cat species.
Chinese scientists have discovered dozens of primitive human fossils at the site dating back 300,000 years. These fossils 63 (find) so far are the earliest ones in East Asia, which are part of the evolutionary process of modern humans. They first 64 (appear) in Africa some 315,000 years ago, but it wasn’t until around 45,000 years ago 65 they emerged in eastern Asia. The animal fossils help cast light on the environment, diet and potential threats faced by primitive humans.

六、书面表达（本大题共1小题）
67．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。
Jason had a reputation as the messiest kid at Greenwood High School. His room was like a junkyard, with clothes tossed everywhere, empty chip bags on the floor, and half-finished sodas scattered across his desk. His mom, Susan, had stopped nagging (唠叨) him to clean up, hoping he himself would eventually get the hint. But instead, the mess just got worse.
Greenwood High School was famous for its creative projects, so when the headmaster Mr. Thompson declared a new “Labor Education” project, no one was too surprised. The idea was simple: teach students about hard work through real tasks. Jason wasn’t excited—he would rather play video games all day—but the project was a must; he had no choice.
Finally, the day of the project came. It was gray and overcast, matching Jason’s mood as he dragged himself into the school’s lecture hall with his classmates, yawning and complaining. Mr. Thompson stood on stage with a speaker. “Today, we’re going to learn the importance of labor!” he exclaimed. Jason rolled his eyes when he was assigned to the gardening group with his best friend, Mike. Their job was to clear out the school’s overgrown front lawn and plant new flowers. They shared a look that said it all—this was going to be a long day.
As they started weeding, Jason quickly discovered how hard physical labor could be. The weeds were stubborn, and the leaves seemed to multiply every time he raked (耙) them. His back ached, his arms felt like jelly, and his hands blistered. While stretching, eager to sneak in a break, he spotted Mr. Thompson standing afar with a big smile from across the yard, giving him a big thumbs-up.
After lunch, the group moved to build simple things like birdhouses for the garden in the school’s maintenance house. Jason had two left hands at first—his hammering was a mess— but he slowly got better. By the end of the session, he managed to make a crooked but decent-looking birdhouse. Carrying his newly-made birdhouse around, Jason proudly showed it off to his classmates.
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 last task of the day was to plant new flowers.

As the day ended, Jason walked back to his room.

M: Well, a blind person puts on the glasses and looks at something, for example, this pen. First the video camera in the glasses takes a picture of the pen. Then the camera sends the picture to the computer chip in the person’s eyes.
W: And then the person can see the pen!
M: Exactly! This whole process happens very quickly, of course.
W: Wow! Now, using this tool, will a blind person be able to see as well as a normal one
M: No, they won’t have perfect vision, but they will be able to see many things. This tool is still new, but for many of the people in our study, it’s changed their lives.

【听力材料】
M: Today’s grandparents are joining their grandchildren on social media, but different generations’ online habits could be different. In the UK the over-55s are joining Facebook in increasing numbers, meaning that they will soon be the site’ s second biggest user group, with 21． 4 million users. Sheila, aged 59, said she joined Facebook to see what her grandchildren are doing, as her daughter Daisy posts videos and photos of them online. It’s a much better way to see what they’re doing than waiting for letters and photos in the emails. Only 2.2 million users in the UK are under 17, but they’re not going far from their smartphones. Chloe, aged 15, even sleeps with her phone because she uses it as her alarm clock. Unlike her grandmother’s generation, Chloe’s age group is spending so much time on their phones at home that they are spending little time with their friends in real life. Sheila, on the other hand, contacts old friends from school she hasn’t heard from in 40 years on social media. It’s changed her social life completely. As we know, parents were the early adopters of the smartphone. Peter, 38 and father of two teenagers, said that he used to be on his phone or laptop constantly because of work. He wants to change this situation. So, in the evenings and at weekends, he only makes calls and sends text messages to set a better example to his kids and spend more quality time with them.

Recognizing her talent, the teacher handed her an enrollment brochure for the Zhejiang Vocational Academy of Art, setting her on the path to becoming a Yueju Opera performer.(在一次唱歌练习中，蒋周南清澈的嗓音和真挚的情感吸引了老师的注意。老师认可她的天赋，给了她浙江艺术职业学院的招生手册，使她走上了成为越剧演员的道路)”可知，蒋周南选择越剧职业是因为她的老师认可了她的天赋。故选A。
25．细节理解题。根据文章第三段“where she focuses on laodan (senior female roles) while also performing zhengdan (young female roles).(她在剧团中专注于老旦（老年女性角色），同时也扮演正旦（年轻女性角色）)”可知，蒋周南在越剧团中同时扮演老年和年轻女性角色。故选C。
26．推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Her solid vocal skills and nuanced (细致入微的) performances quickly made her a standout member of the troupe.(她扎实的声乐技巧和细致入微的表演很快使她成为剧团的杰出成员)”以及根据第四段“Their confident, spirited behaviour fascinated her, stimulating a passion for the speed and the freedom of motorcycling.(他们自信、活泼的行为吸引了她，激发了她对速度和自由的激情)”可知，她是一个既专注又富有冒险精神的人。故选B。
27．推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Jiang doesn’t see her two personas as conflicting. She believes everyone has multiple dimensions to their character, with the stage reflecting just one side of her life and motorcycling marking the shift from work to personal life.(蒋周南并不认为她的两种身份是冲突的。她相信每个人都有多面的性格，舞台只是她生活的一面，而摩托车运动则标志着从工作到个人生活的转变)”可知，作者通过蒋周南的故事传达了“人像多面钻石一样，拥有多面性格”的观点。故选D。

【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了因为气温上升，导致北极地区的苔原解冻，从而释放出了更多的二氧化碳。
【解析】28．细节理解题。根据第二段“For thousands of years, Arctic land ecosystems have acted as a deep-freeze, holding potential emissions in the tundra. But ecosystems in the region are releasing more CO2 into the atmosphere with rising temperatures, a study published in Nature Climate Change concluded.(数千年来，北极陆地生态系统一直扮演着“深冻”的角色，将潜在的排放物封存在苔原上。但发表在《自然气候变化》杂志上的一项研究得出结论，随着气温上升，该地区的生态系统正在向大气中释放更多的二氧化碳)”可知，北极土壤释放碳的主要原因是苔原解冻。故选A。
29．词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“when the tundra unfreezes, the plants that absorb CO2 grow more, so you can sometimes get an(当冻土带解冻时，吸收二氧化碳的植物生长得更多，所以有时你会得到……)”可知，上文提到冻土带解冻，导致吸收二氧化碳的植物生长得更多，所以促进了碳储存的增加。故划线词意思是“促进”。故选A。
30．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Dr Anna Virkkala, the author of the study, said, “The carbon in the Arctic soil is close to half of the Earth’s soil carbon pool, much more than in the atmosphere. This huge pool should ideally stay in the ground. But now, rising temperatures are speeding the breakdown of plant and animal remains, which releases stored carbon back into the air as greenhouse gases like CO2, creating a cycle that fuels even more warming.”(该研究的作者安娜·维尔卡拉博士说：“北极土壤中的碳含量接近地球土壤碳库的一半，远远超过大气中的碳含量。理想情况下，这个巨大的水池应该留在地下。但现在，气温上升加速了动植物遗体的分解，将储存的碳以二氧化碳等温室气体的形式释放回空气中，形成了一个循环，加剧了气候变暖。”)”可知，她认为北极土壤碳库应该存放在冻土带里。故选B。
31．主旨大意题。根据第一段“A third of the Arctic’s tundra (北极冻土), forests and wetlands have become a source of carbon emissions (排放), a new study has found, as global heating ends thousands of years of carbon storage.(一项新的研究发现，由于全球变暖终结了数千年的碳储存，北极三分之一的苔原、森林和湿地已经成为碳排放的来源)”结合文章主要说明了因为气温上升，导致北极地区的苔原解冻，从而释放出了更多的二氧化碳。可知，故这篇文章的主旨是北极正在释放更多的碳。故选B。

【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种新的认知模型——系统0，介绍了其本质以及工作原理等情况。
【解析】32．推理判断题。根据第一段“The growing interaction between humans and artificial intelligence (AI) is shaping a new way of thinking, known as System 0. This new cognitive (认知的) framework exists outside the human mind and works as an external “thinking assistant”. System 0 works alongside the two established models of human thought: System l, which is fast, intuitive (直觉的) , and automatic, and System 2, which is slower, more analytical, and reflective.(人类与人工智能（AI）之间日益增长的互动正在形成一种新的思维方式，即系统0。这个新的认知框架存在于人类思维之外，作为一个外部的“思维助手”。系统0与两种已建立的人类思维模式一起工作：快速、直觉和自动的系统1，以及较慢、更善于分析和反思的系统2)”可知，第1段的目的是介绍一种新的认知模型——系统0。故选B。
33．细节理解题。根据第二段“Hence the idea of System 0, which is essentially a form of “external” thinking that relies on the capabilities of AI.(因此就有了System 0的概念，它本质上是一种依赖于AI能力的“外部”思维形式)”可知，系统0的本质是外部认知增强剂。故选D。
34．推理判断题。根据第四段“The integration of system 0 into human cognition raises some concerns. One of the most pressing ones is the potential damage to our critical thinking and reasoning abilities. If we blindly trust the output of system 0 without questioning it, we risk losing our ability to think independently, leading to a weaker capacity for innovation and creativity. At the same time, it is important to acknowledge the potential benefits of system 0 in increasing our cognitive capabilities and addressing complex challenges that may be beyond the capacity of human intelligence alone.(将系统0整合到人类认知中引起了一些关注。其中最紧迫的是对我们批判性思维和推理能力的潜在损害。如果我们盲目相信系统0的产出而不去质疑它，我们就有可能失去独立思考的能力，从而导致创新和创造能力的削弱。与此同时，重要的是要认识到系统0在提高我们的认知能力和解决可能超出人类智能能力的复杂挑战方面的潜在好处)”可知，作者在第4段提到了盲目相信系统0导致的问题，以及系统0的优点，即作者的语气是客观的。故选C。
35．推理判断题。根据最后一段“To ensure that AI remains a tool to enhance — rather than decrease — our cognitive autonomy, clear boundaries must be established.(为了确保人工智能仍然是增强而不是降低我们认知自主性的工具，必须建立明确的界限)”可知，接下来的段落最有可能讨论严格使用系统0的具体指导方针。故选D。

【分析】这是一篇说明文，文章介绍了可以减少旅游时发生争吵导致友谊破裂的方法。
【解析】36．上文“It’s generally assumed that these friendship breakups result from different travel preferences or lack of conflict resolution skills.(人们普遍认为，这些友谊的破裂是由于不同的旅行偏好或缺乏解决冲突的能力)”是描述对于旅行结束后友谊破裂人们普遍认为的原因，B项“我认为这是两者的结合”作者提出自己的看法，B项中“both”指代上文“different travel preferences”和“lack of conflict resolution skills”，故选B。
37．根据下文“Regarding accommodations, for instance, you’d rather check into a Youth Hostel than a five-star hotel so that you can spend more on good meals. What need you prioritize should get across to your friends(关于住宿，例如，你宁愿入住青年旅馆而不是五星级酒店，这样你可以花更多的钱在美食上。你优先考虑的需求应该告诉你的朋友)”可知，本段是说要和朋友说清楚预算和需求，D项“坦白你的预算和喜好”适合作为本段主旨句，故选D。
38．根据上文“Do your friends prefer a structured itinerary (行程) that starts at 7 a.m., or would they like to rise at their leisure and wing it for the day Are they down to party until dawn, or do they want to call it a night by 10 p.m. (你的朋友们是喜欢早上7点开始的有组织的行程，还是喜欢在空闲的时候起床，然后自由地度过一天？他们是准备派对到天亮，还是想在晚上10点前结束？)”可知，此处是讲设定行程的重要性，G项“设定行程预期可以帮助你有效地计划旅行”符合语境，故选G。
39．上文“Are you one who rigidly sticks to a travel itinerary and allows zero flexibility (你是一个严格遵守旅行计划，不允许任何灵活性的人吗？)”提出问题：你是一个严格遵守旅行计划，不允许任何灵活性的人吗？下文“I find it helpful to have a loose itinerary shared before the trip. You can always revise your daily schedule(我发现在旅行前有一个自由的行程安排是很有帮助的。你可以随时修改你的日程安排)”提到自由、灵活的行程安排，和上文“严格遵守计划、不允许任何灵活性”相反，故E项“如果答案是肯定的，你将不得不做出改变”符合语境，E项中的“answer”呼应上文问题，故选E。
40．根据下文“It’s everyone’s vacation, so everyone should get independent periods to use as they wish.(这是每个人的假期，所以每个人都应该有自己的假期)”可知，每个人都应该有属于自己的时间，C项“别忘了留出独处的时间”符合语境，故选C。

67．【答案】One possible version:
The last task of the day was to plant new flowers. Jason and Mike were given a variety of colorful flower bulbs to plant. Despite their initial reluctance, they found a rhythm as they dug holes, placed the bulbs, and covered them with soil. The repetitive motion of planting began to feel therapeutic, and Jason even started to enjoy the earthy smell of the freshly turned soil. Each flower they planted represented a small victory, and by the time they finished, the once-overgrown lawn looked vibrant and alive.
As the day ended, Jason walked back to his room. His room, usually a source of stress, now seemed too cluttered and disorganized. Inspired by the day’s activities, Jason decided to tackle the mess himself. He started by picking up the scattered clothes and organizing them in his closet. Next, he collected the empty chip bags and threw them away, and finally, he cleaned up the half-finished sodas from his desk. By the time he finished, his room looked almost unrecognizable—clean and tidy. Jason smiled, realizing that the labor education project had not only taught him about hard work but also about the value of taking care of his own space.
【分析】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Jason是格林伍德高中公认的邋遢学生，他的房间混乱不堪。尽管他的母亲Susan希望他能自我觉醒，但情况却日益恶化。学校推出“劳动教育”项目，旨在通过实际劳动教育学生。Jason虽不情愿，但被迫参与，被分配到园艺小组。在除草的过程中，他体验到了劳动的艰辛，背部疼痛，手臂无力，双手起泡。午饭后，他参与建造鸟舍，从笨手笨脚到逐渐熟练，最终完成了一个歪歪扭扭但看起来很体面的鸟舍，带着自豪的心情向同学们展示自己的作品。
【详解】1. 段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“这一天的最后一项任务是种新的花”可知，第一段可描写Jason种植花的过程，一开始觉得困难，后来逐渐适应，以及种植完成后的成果。
②由第二段首句内容“一天结束了，Jason走回自己的房间”可知，第二段可描写Jason开始着手整理自己的房间，以及整理完成后的感悟。

Onstage, 21-year-old Jiang Zhounan brings stories to life, while offstage, she finds great joy and excitement in her own passionate story with speeding motorcycle. Born in 2003, Jiang represents the elegance of the stage and the freedom of the open road. Her life combines the grace of traditional Yueju Opera with the thrill of biking.
Her journey into the world of art began with a serendipitous (凑巧的) moment in her second year of junior middle school. During a singing practice, Jiang’s clear voice and heartfelt emotion captured the attention of her teacher. Recognizing her talent, the teacher handed her an enrollment brochure for the Zhejiang Vocational Academy of Art, setting her on the path to becoming a Yueju Opera performer.
At the academy, Jiang was fortunate to find a teacher who provided academic guidance and personal support, allowing her to fully engage herself in the study of the art form. Upon graduating in 2022, she joined the Yueju Opera troupe (剧团) at the Nantong Art Theater, where she focuses on laodan (senior female roles) while also performing zhengdan (young female roles). Her solid vocal skills and nuanced (细致入微的) performances quickly made her a standout member of the troupe. Yueju Opera is a traditional style of opera popular in the Yangtze River Delta region. Its male roles are typically played by women.
But in her free time, Jiang embraces a different kind of performance. Shortly after starting her career, she met a group of female motorcyclists during an outreach performance in the countryside. Their confident, spirited behaviour fascinated her, stimulating a passion for the speed and the freedom of motorcycling. In 2022, she bought herself a motorcycle, transforming from a graceful Yueju Opera performer to a dynamic, cool rider.
Jiang doesn’t see her two personas as conflicting. She believes everyone has multiple dimensions to their character, with the stage reflecting just one side of her life and motorcycling marking the shift from work to personal life.
24．Why did Jiang Zhounan pursue a career in Yueju Opera
A．Her teacher recognized her talent.
B．She won a local talent competition.
C．She was inspired by an opera singer.
D．She was interested in performing arts.
25．What roles does Jiang Zhounan specialize in at the Yueju Opera troupe
A．Only young female roles. B．Only senior male roles.
C．Both senior and young female roles. D．Both senior and young male roles.
26．Which of the following can best describe Jiang Zhounan
A．Talented and shy. B．Devoted and adventurous.
C．Responsible and gentle. D．Traditional and clumsy.
27．What message does the author seem to convey in the text
A．The early bird catches the worm.
B．When one door closes, another opens.
C．The grass is always greener on the other side.
D．A man has many sides like a multi-faceted diamond.
A third of the Arctic’s tundra (北极冻土), forests and wetlands have become a source of carbon emissions (排放), a new study has found, as global heating ends thousands of years of carbon storage.
For thousands of years, Arctic land ecosystems have acted as a deep-freeze, holding potential emissions in the tundra. But ecosystems in the region are releasing more CO2 into the atmosphere with rising temperatures, a study published in Nature Climate Change concluded.
More than 30% of the region was a source of CO2, according to the analysis, rising to 40% when emissions from wildfires were included. By using data from 200 study sites between 1990 and 2020, the research demonstrates how the Arctic’s tundra, forests and wetlands are being transformed by rapid warming.
The shift is occurring despite the Arctic becoming greener. “One place where I work in Alaska, when the tundra unfreezes, the plants that absorb CO2 grow more, so you can sometimes get an uptick in carbon storage”, Sue Natalia, the lead researcher said. “But the tundra continues to unfreeze and the microbes (微生物) take over. You can visually see the changes in the landscape.”
There is a growing concern about the natural processes that regulate the Earth’s climate, which are being affected by rising temperatures. Together, the planet’s oceans, forests, soils and other natural carbon sinks absorb about half of all human emissions, but there are signs that these sinks are under stress.
The Arctic ecosystem has been gathering carbon for thousands of years, helping cool the atmosphere. In a warming world, the researchers say, its carbon cycle is beginning to change and needs better monitoring. Dr Anna Virkkala, the author of the study, said, “The carbon in the Arctic soil is close to half of the Earth’s soil carbon pool, much more than in the atmosphere. This huge pool should ideally stay in the ground. But now, rising temperatures are speeding the breakdown of plant and animal remains, which releases stored carbon back into the air as greenhouse gases like CO2, creating a cycle that fuels even more warming.”
28．What’s the main reason for the release of carbon from Arctic soils
A．Tundra defrosting. B．Wildfire erupting.
C．Tree over-cutting. D．Wetland disappearing.
29．What does the underlined word “uptick” in paragraph 4 mean
A．Boost. B．Loss. C．Limit. D．Release.
30．What can we infer about the Arctic’s soil carbon pool according to Dr Anna Virkkala
A．It has less carbon than the air. B．It ought to be stored in the tundra.
C．It can break down organic matter. D．It is less affected by global warming.
31．What is the main idea of the text
A．Arctic greening cuts carbon emissions. B．More carbon is being released in Arctic.
C．Arctic carbon storage is growing rapidly. D．Extreme climate makes Arctic inhabitable.
The growing interaction between humans and artificial intelligence (AI) is shaping a new way of thinking, known as System 0. This new cognitive (认知的) framework exists outside the human mind and works as an external “thinking assistant”. System 0 works alongside the two established models of human thought: System l, which is fast, intuitive (直觉的) , and automatic, and System 2, which is slower, more analytical, and reflective.
Just as an external drive allows us to store data that are not present on the computer, and we can work by connecting our drive to a PC wherever we are, AI, with its powerful processing and data-handling capabilities, can represent an external circuit to the human brain capable of enhancing it. Hence the idea of System 0, which is essentially a form of “external” thinking that relies on the capabilities of AI.
By managing enormous amounts of data, AI can process information and provide suggestions based on complex algorithms (算法) . However, unlike intuitive or analytical thinking, System 0 can perform calculations, make predictions, and generate responses without truly “understanding” the content of the data it works with.
The integration of system 0 into human cognition raises some concerns. One of the most pressing ones is the potential damage to our critical thinking and reasoning abilities. If we blindly trust the output of system 0 without questioning it, we risk losing our ability to think independently, leading to a weaker capacity for innovation and creativity. At the same time, it is important to acknowledge the potential benefits of system 0 in increasing our cognitive capabilities and addressing complex challenges that may be beyond the capacity of human intelligence alone.
Despite the polarized visions on the topic of the evolution of AI, we recommend that this revolutionary system be the object of a deep, shared reflection on how we plan to integrate it into the future of human thought. To ensure that AI remains a tool to enhance — rather than decrease — our cognitive autonomy, clear boundaries must be established.
32．What is the purpose of paragraph 1
A．To state AI’s influence on daily life. B．To introduce a new cognitive model.
C．To compare three thinking systems. D．To discuss AI’s role in decision-making.
33．Which can best describe the essence of System 0
A．A deep meaning seeker. B．An analytical thinking pioneer.
C．A smart decision-maker. D．An external cognitive enhancer.
34．What is the author’s tone carried in paragraph 4
A．Pushy. B．Indifferent. C．Objective. D．Dismissive.
35．What will the follow-up paragraph most probably talk about
A．Moral dilemmas in human-AI integration. B．Possibly promising prospects of System 0.
C．Technical challenges in sharpening System 0. D．Specific guidelines on using System 0 critically.
I frequently see online videos where a group of girls travel to a destination as friends but leave as enemies. It’s generally assumed that these friendship breakups result from different travel preferences or lack of conflict resolution skills. 36 Luckily, there are ways to minimize arguments and ensure your friendships survive your next group trip.
37 Regarding accommodations, for instance, you’d rather check into a Youth Hostel than a five-star hotel so that you can spend more on good meals. What need you prioritize should get across to your friends, in which case there’ll be no surprises when you’re trying to pick out an Airbnb or make dinner reservations.
Do your friends prefer a structured itinerary (行程) that starts at 7 a.m., or would they like to rise at their leisure and wing it for the day Are they down to party until dawn, or do they want to call it a night by 10 p.m. 38 The same goes for boundaries. Better to know what makes them uncomfortable beforehand than have to negotiate mid-trip.
Are you one who rigidly sticks to a travel itinerary and allows zero flexibility 39 I find it helpful to have a loose itinerary shared before the trip. You can always revise your daily schedule, but some structure is key, or else you’re spending half your vacation researching.
Some people need a break to recharge or sleep and others may want to work out or read a book. 40 It’s everyone’s vacation, so everyone should get independent periods to use as they wish.
A．It pays to tour with friends.
B．I believe it’s a mixture of both.
C．Don’t forget to block out alone time.
D．Be frank about your budget and preferences.
E．If the answer is yes, you’ll have to make a change.
F．There is no point in complaining about external disturbance.
G．Setting schedule expectations helps you plan the trip effectively.

阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Archaeologists have unearthed the smallest known cat fossil (化石) at the Hualongdong site in eastern China. It has been identified as 56 extinct species of leopard cat named Prionailurus kurteni, which was so small that it could 57 (comfortable) fit in a hand. It was comparable 58 size to the two smallest existing feline (猫科) species — the rusty-spotted cat and the black-footed cat.
The 59 (origin) biology research supported the belief of a common ancestor for the leopard cat, the domestic cat and Pallas cat. However, no fossil evidence had been identified before the 60 (discover). Forest habitats 61 leopard cats live are not ideally suited to bone preservation.
Finding the fossil of an inclined first molar (臼齿) means 62 (have) evidence from its jawbone and teeth that supports the idea of a common ancestor for all three cat species.
Chinese scientists have discovered dozens of primitive human fossils at the site dating back 300,000 years. These fossils 63 (find) so far are the earliest ones in East Asia, which are part of the evolutionary process of modern humans. They first 64 (appear) in Africa some 315,000 years ago, but it wasn’t until around 45,000 years ago 65 they emerged in eastern Asia. The animal fossils help cast light on the environment, diet and potential threats faced by primitive humans.

67．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。
Jason had a reputation as the messiest kid at Greenwood High School. His room was like a junkyard, with clothes tossed everywhere, empty chip bags on the floor, and half-finished sodas scattered across his desk. His mom, Susan, had stopped nagging (唠叨) him to clean up, hoping he himself would eventually get the hint. But instead, the mess just got worse.
Greenwood High School was famous for its creative projects, so when the headmaster Mr. Thompson declared a new “Labor Education” project, no one was too surprised. The idea was simple: teach students about hard work through real tasks. Jason wasn’t excited—he would rather play video games all day—but the project was a must; he had no choice.
Finally, the day of the project came. It was gray and overcast, matching Jason’s mood as he dragged himself into the school’s lecture hall with his classmates, yawning and complaining. Mr. Thompson stood on stage with a speaker. “Today, we’re going to learn the importance of labor!” he exclaimed. Jason rolled his eyes when he was assigned to the gardening group with his best friend, Mike. Their job was to clear out the school’s overgrown front lawn and plant new flowers. They shared a look that said it all—this was going to be a long day.
As they started weeding, Jason quickly discovered how hard physical labor could be. The weeds were stubborn, and the leaves seemed to multiply every time he raked (耙) them. His back ached, his arms felt like jelly, and his hands blistered. While stretching, eager to sneak in a break, he spotted Mr. Thompson standing afar with a big smile from across the yard, giving him a big thumbs-up.
After lunch, the group moved to build simple things like birdhouses for the garden in the school’s maintenance house. Jason had two left hands at first—his hammering was a mess— but he slowly got better. By the end of the session, he managed to make a crooked but decent-looking birdhouse. Carrying his newly-made birdhouse around, Jason proudly showed it off to his classmates.
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 last task of the day was to plant new flowers.

【听力材料】W: Dr. Spenser, thanks for joining our program today.
M: It’s my pleasure.
W: So, what exactly are scientists at your company doing
M: We’ re developing a tool to help blind people to see again. I’m talking about people who lost their sight because of an accident.
W: So, tell us about the tool you’re working on now.
M: Well, it uses a computer chip and special glasses. We start by putting the chip in a blind person’s eyes. The chip is very, very small, of course. And the glasses have a very small video camera inside.
W: So, how do the computer chip and glasses work together
M: Well, a blind person puts on the glasses and looks at something, for example, this pen. First the video camera in the glasses takes a picture of the pen. Then the camera sends the picture to the computer chip in the person’s eyes.
W: And then the person can see the pen!
M: Exactly! This whole process happens very quickly, of course.
W: Wow! Now, using this tool, will a blind person be able to see as well as a normal one
M: No, they won’t have perfect vision, but they will be able to see many things. This tool is still new, but for many of the people in our study, it’s changed their lives.

In the UK the over-55s are joining Facebook in increasing numbers, meaning that they will soon be the site’ s second biggest user group, with 21． 4 million users. Sheila, aged 59, said she joined Facebook to see what her grandchildren are doing, as her daughter Daisy posts videos and photos of them online. It’s a much better way to see what they’re doing than waiting for letters and photos in the emails. Only 2.2 million users in the UK are under 17, but they’re not going far from their smartphones. Chloe, aged 15, even sleeps with her phone because she uses it as her alarm clock. Unlike her grandmother’s generation, Chloe’s age group is spending so much time on their phones at home that they are spending little time with their friends in real life. Sheila, on the other hand, contacts old friends from school she hasn’t heard from in 40 years on social media. It’s changed her social life completely. As we know, parents were the early adopters of the smartphone. Peter, 38 and father of two teenagers, said that he used to be on his phone or laptop constantly because of work. He wants to change this situation. So, in the evenings and at weekends, he only makes calls and sends text messages to set a better example to his kids and spend more quality time with them.

【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了因为气温上升，导致北极地区的苔原解冻，从而释放出了更多的二氧化碳。
【解析】28．细节理解题。根据第二段“For thousands of years, Arctic land ecosystems have acted as a deep-freeze, holding potential emissions in the tundra. But ecosystems in the region are releasing more CO2 into the atmosphere with rising temperatures, a study published in Nature Climate Change concluded.(数千年来，北极陆地生态系统一直扮演着“深冻”的角色，将潜在的排放物封存在苔原上。但发表在《自然气候变化》杂志上的一项研究得出结论，随着气温上升，该地区的生态系统正在向大气中释放更多的二氧化碳)”可知，北极土壤释放碳的主要原因是苔原解冻。故选A。
29．词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“when the tundra unfreezes, the plants that absorb CO2 grow more, so you can sometimes get an(当冻土带解冻时，吸收二氧化碳的植物生长得更多，所以有时你会得到……)”可知，上文提到冻土带解冻，导致吸收二氧化碳的植物生长得更多，所以促进了碳储存的增加。故划线词意思是“促进”。故选A。
30．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Dr Anna Virkkala, the author of the study, said, “The carbon in the Arctic soil is close to half of the Earth’s soil carbon pool, much more than in the atmosphere. This huge pool should ideally stay in the ground. But now, rising temperatures are speeding the breakdown of plant and animal remains, which releases stored carbon back into the air as greenhouse gases like CO2, creating a cycle that fuels even more warming.”(该研究的作者安娜·维尔卡拉博士说：“北极土壤中的碳含量接近地球土壤碳库的一半，远远超过大气中的碳含量。理想情况下，这个巨大的水池应该留在地下。但现在，气温上升加速了动植物遗体的分解，将储存的碳以二氧化碳等温室气体的形式释放回空气中，形成了一个循环，加剧了气候变暖。”)”可知，她认为北极土壤碳库应该存放在冻土带里。故选B。
31．主旨大意题。根据第一段“A third of the Arctic’s tundra (北极冻土), forests and wetlands have become a source of carbon emissions (排放), a new study has found, as global heating ends thousands of years of carbon storage.(一项新的研究发现，由于全球变暖终结了数千年的碳储存，北极三分之一的苔原、森林和湿地已经成为碳排放的来源)”结合文章主要说明了因为气温上升，导致北极地区的苔原解冻，从而释放出了更多的二氧化碳。可知，故这篇文章的主旨是北极正在释放更多的碳。故选B。
【答案】32．B 33．D 34．C 35．D
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种新的认知模型——系统0，介绍了其本质以及工作原理等情况。
【解析】32．推理判断题。根据第一段“The growing interaction between humans and artificial intelligence (AI) is shaping a new way of thinking, known as System 0. This new cognitive (认知的) framework exists outside the human mind and works as an external “thinking assistant”. System 0 works alongside the two established models of human thought: System l, which is fast, intuitive (直觉的) , and automatic, and System 2, which is slower, more analytical, and reflective.(人类与人工智能（AI）之间日益增长的互动正在形成一种新的思维方式，即系统0。这个新的认知框架存在于人类思维之外，作为一个外部的“思维助手”。系统0与两种已建立的人类思维模式一起工作：快速、直觉和自动的系统1，以及较慢、更善于分析和反思的系统2)”可知，第1段的目的是介绍一种新的认知模型——系统0。故选B。
33．细节理解题。根据第二段“Hence the idea of System 0, which is essentially a form of “external” thinking that relies on the capabilities of AI.(因此就有了System 0的概念，它本质上是一种依赖于AI能力的“外部”思维形式)”可知，系统0的本质是外部认知增强剂。故选D。
34．推理判断题。根据第四段“The integration of system 0 into human cognition raises some concerns. One of the most pressing ones is the potential damage to our critical thinking and reasoning abilities. If we blindly trust the output of system 0 without questioning it, we risk losing our ability to think independently, leading to a weaker capacity for innovation and creativity. At the same time, it is important to acknowledge the potential benefits of system 0 in increasing our cognitive capabilities and addressing complex challenges that may be beyond the capacity of human intelligence alone.(将系统0整合到人类认知中引起了一些关注。其中最紧迫的是对我们批判性思维和推理能力的潜在损害。如果我们盲目相信系统0的产出而不去质疑它，我们就有可能失去独立思考的能力，从而导致创新和创造能力的削弱。与此同时，重要的是要认识到系统0在提高我们的认知能力和解决可能超出人类智能能力的复杂挑战方面的潜在好处)”可知，作者在第4段提到了盲目相信系统0导致的问题，以及系统0的优点，即作者的语气是客观的。故选C。
35．推理判断题。根据最后一段“To ensure that AI remains a tool to enhance — rather than decrease — our cognitive autonomy, clear boundaries must be established.(为了确保人工智能仍然是增强而不是降低我们认知自主性的工具，必须建立明确的界限)”可知，接下来的段落最有可能讨论严格使用系统0的具体指导方针。故选D。

37．根据下文“Regarding accommodations, for instance, you’d rather check into a Youth Hostel than a five-star hotel so that you can spend more on good meals. What need you prioritize should get across to your friends(关于住宿，例如，你宁愿入住青年旅馆而不是五星级酒店，这样你可以花更多的钱在美食上。你优先考虑的需求应该告诉你的朋友)”可知，本段是说要和朋友说清楚预算和需求，D项“坦白你的预算和喜好”适合作为本段主旨句，故选D。
38．根据上文“Do your friends prefer a structured itinerary (行程) that starts at 7 a.m., or would they like to rise at their leisure and wing it for the day Are they down to party until dawn, or do they want to call it a night by 10 p.m. (你的朋友们是喜欢早上7点开始的有组织的行程，还是喜欢在空闲的时候起床，然后自由地度过一天？他们是准备派对到天亮，还是想在晚上10点前结束？)”可知，此处是讲设定行程的重要性，G项“设定行程预期可以帮助你有效地计划旅行”符合语境，故选G。
39．上文“Are you one who rigidly sticks to a travel itinerary and allows zero flexibility (你是一个严格遵守旅行计划，不允许任何灵活性的人吗？)”提出问题：你是一个严格遵守旅行计划，不允许任何灵活性的人吗？下文“I find it helpful to have a loose itinerary shared before the trip. You can always revise your daily schedule(我发现在旅行前有一个自由的行程安排是很有帮助的。你可以随时修改你的日程安排)”提到自由、灵活的行程安排，和上文“严格遵守计划、不允许任何灵活性”相反，故E项“如果答案是肯定的，你将不得不做出改变”符合语境，E项中的“answer”呼应上文问题，故选E。
40．根据下文“It’s everyone’s vacation, so everyone should get independent periods to use as they wish.(这是每个人的假期，所以每个人都应该有自己的假期)”可知，每个人都应该有属于自己的时间，C项“别忘了留出独处的时间”符合语境，故选C。

67．【答案】One possible version:
The last task of the day was to plant new flowers. Jason and Mike were given a variety of colorful flower bulbs to plant. Despite their initial reluctance, they found a rhythm as they dug holes, placed the bulbs, and covered them with soil. The repetitive motion of planting began to feel therapeutic, and Jason even started to enjoy the earthy smell of the freshly turned soil. Each flower they planted represented a small victory, and by the time they finished, the once-overgrown lawn looked vibrant and alive.
As the day ended, Jason walked back to his room. His room, usually a source of stress, now seemed too cluttered and disorganized. Inspired by the day’s activities, Jason decided to tackle the mess himself. He started by picking up the scattered clothes and organizing them in his closet. Next, he collected the empty chip bags and threw them away, and finally, he cleaned up the half-finished sodas from his desk. By the time he finished, his room looked almost unrecognizable—clean and tidy. Jason smiled, realizing that the labor education project had not only taught him about hard work but also about the value of taking care of his own space.
【分析】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Jason是格林伍德高中公认的邋遢学生，他的房间混乱不堪。尽管他的母亲Susan希望他能自我觉醒，但情况却日益恶化。学校推出“劳动教育”项目，旨在通过实际劳动教育学生。Jason虽不情愿，但被迫参与，被分配到园艺小组。在除草的过程中，他体验到了劳动的艰辛，背部疼痛，手臂无力，双手起泡。午饭后，他参与建造鸟舍，从笨手笨脚到逐渐熟练，最终完成了一个歪歪扭扭但看起来很体面的鸟舍，带着自豪的心情向同学们展示自己的作品。
【详解】1. 段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“这一天的最后一项任务是种新的花”可知，第一段可描写Jason种植花的过程，一开始觉得困难，后来逐渐适应，以及种植完成后的成果。
②由第二段首句内容“一天结束了，Jason走回自己的房间”可知，第二段可描写Jason开始着手整理自己的房间，以及整理完成后的感悟。
2. 续写线索：种植花——从困难到适应——成果——回到房间——整理房间——感悟
