第二部分 阅读(共两节,满分50分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Four Cool Languages
Chinese
Around 1.4 billion people speak Chinese. Chinese is a tonal(声调的) language, meaning that changing the tone of just one syllable (音节) can affect a word's meaning. Chinese writing has ancient roots, which is thought to have developed around 1400 B.C.
Arabic(阿拉伯语)
About 310 million people speak Arabic. Written Arabic uses a cursive-style font(字体) that looks more like artworks than writing. Arabic is written from right to left rather than from left to right, making it different from many other languages.
English
Around 379 million people speak English as a native language. It's an official language in a huge number of countries.
English is the most widely spoken second language, with over a billion people speaking it to some level of competence. That means around twice as many people speaking English as a second language as those who speak it as the first language.
Italian
Nearly 68 million people speak Italian. If you play music or sing, chances are that you already know a lot of Italian because many familiar musical terms are actually Italian.
Not only will learning Italian help you pick up vocabulary, but it will also help you understand the meanings of musical terms in greater depth.
21.What is a feature of Arabic
A.It doesn't have a cursive-style font.
B.It helps artists with their artworks.
C.It is written from right to left.
D.It is closely related to music.
22.Which is most widely used as a second language in the world
A.Arabic. B.English. C.Chinese. D.Italian.
23.What's the number of people who speak Italian
A.Nearly 68 million. B.Around 310 million.
C.Around 379 million. D.Around 1.4 billion.
B
When I tell people I'm learning Chinese and Italian, they often look surprised. It annoys me that I can't easily answer their unspoken questions: “Why do you learn languages you have no personal connection to Why do you spend hours studying languages spoken by people far away ”
In my freshman year, I started learning Italian on a whim(一时兴起). Now, I'm preparing to study at an Italian university. When I worry about not being ready, I watch old Italian movies. I understand little of the dialogue, but the parts I catch mean a lot to me. Like in the film Umberto D., where a main character—an old man, says, “Everyone takes advantage of the ignorant(无知).” These small moments of understanding hit me hard.
As a boy, growing up with Filipino and American parents in Hong Kong, I'm used to language barriers(障碍). Cantonese, the language of my home, is still hard for me. But small moments of connection through languages feel special. As Nelson Mandela, the former president of South Africa, said, “If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his mother tongue, that goes to his heart.”
The more I think about “why” I learn languages, the more I realize it's about “how”. Learning a language makes it easy for you to make mistakes and feel embarrassed. Sometimes, this makes me want to stick with English. But then I watch an Italian film and hear some new words and conversations, which wouldn't be possible without my efforts. I wouldn't feel the connection without failing many times. I've learned that however fluent you may think you are, there is no finish line in learning a language. And that's what keeps me pushing forward in my language journey.
24.How does the author find people's questions
A.They are difficult to explain.
B.They are easy to answer.
C.They make him comfortable.
D.They encourage him in a way.
25.What does the author do when feeling worried about studying in Italy
A.Practice English more. B.Turn to an old man.
C.Watch Italian films. D.Speak with Italians.
26.Why does the author mention what Mandela said
A.To prove the difficulty in understanding.
B.To give the solutions to language barriers.
C.To say the existence of cultural differences.
D.To show the significance of feeling connected.
27.What does the author think of learning a language
A.It helps one avoid mistakes. B.It is an endless process.
C.It is a short-term project. D.It takes fewer efforts.
C
In May 2023, Google released a new, AI-powered tool called “Help Me Write”. The tool writes emails and forms letters based on a user's simple instructions. It promises to greatly improve productivity.
AI is about to have a much larger hand in writing than ever before. With enough training, an AI tool may even be able to learn people's preferences and write in a more personal style.
But the AI-written text can also cause trouble. AI language models have already created controversy(争议) by producing unexpected content, from unsuitable advice to terrible language style.
A lesser talked-about problem is what the AI-written text will do to languages. The introduction of AI-generated communication may also be the death knell for endangered languages.
I have been speaking Swiss German dialects(方言) for half my life. Swiss German is a spoken language with no universal spelling, but that hasn't stopped people from writing in dialect. The introduction of the AI-authored text has changed the communication within my Swiss friend group. When we use AI, a lot of errors appear in our texts and emails. As AI writing becomes common, there's no question that most of us will give up using Swiss German and begin using formal German.
And that's not all. An AI tool may be able to combine words in creative ways, or learn a style from past writing, but it won't naturally invent new slang. We have no idea what this means for language development.
So, as we adopt AI-powered writing tools, it's worth thinking about how they will influence both the conservation and the progress of the language.
28.Why was “Help Me Write” mentioned in Paragraph 1
A.To provide an example. B.To introduce the topic.
C.To advertise an AI tool. D.To support an argument.
29.What might be the disadvantage of the AI-generated text
A.It is a little difficult. B.It uses words incorrectly.
C.It provides answers slowly. D.Its content is not good enough.
30.What does the underlined part “the death knell” in Paragraph 4 mean
A.The sign of the end.
B.The symbol of progress.
C.The chance of improvement.
D.The opportunity to become universal.
31.What is the best title for the text
A.Google's New AI Tool “Help Me Write”
B.The Advantages and Disadvantages of AI
C.The Influence of AI on Writing and Languages
D.The Future of Language Development with AI
D
When learning a foreign language, most people fall back on traditional ways: reading, writing, listening and repeating. But Brian Mathias' research team find out that if you gesture(做手势) with your arms while studying, you can remember the vocabulary better, even months later.
As Mathias describes, they had 22 German-speaking adults learn a total of 90 invented words over four days. While the test subjects first heard the new vocabulary, they were shown a video of a person making a gesture that matched the meaning of the word. When the word was repeated, the subjects performed the gesture themselves. Five months later, they were asked to translate the vocabulary they had learned into German. At the same time, they had equipment attached to their heads that sent weak distracting signals to the primary motor cortex(运动皮层)—the brain area that controls voluntary arm movements. Those who performed better on the task showed a higher level of activity in the motor cortex. The researchers concluded that the motor cortex contributed to the translation of the vocabulary learned with gestures. The effect did not occur when the subjects were only presented with matching pictures instead of gestures.
Another research group led by Leipzig had young adults and eight-year-old children listen to new vocabulary for five days, paired with matching pictures or videos of gestures. After two months, the two methods were still equally effective. But after six months, the adults benefited more from the gestures than the pictures, while the children were helped equally by both.
But it is not only the motor cortex itself that promotes learning. The meaning expressed by the gesture also figures in learning. “I think we underuse gesture in our classrooms,” Goldin-Meadow says. “Good teachers and good listeners use it, but not always in a systematic way. Others don't necessarily bring it into the class—but it could be used more often and more effectively.”
32.What do we know according to Brian Mathias' research
A.Those only presented with matching pictures performed better.
B.The motor cortex had nothing to do with vocabulary learning.
C.The research concluded that gestures benefited vocabulary learning.
D.22 German-speaking adults and children were chosen as the test subjects.
33.Why was equipment attached to the subjects' heads during Mathias' test
A.To count words.
B.To record emotion.
C.To influence brain activity.
D.To give clues to questions.
34.What does Leipzig's research tell us about language learning
A.Adults and children are equally good learners.
B.Pictures have little influence on language learning.
C.Pictures are found more helpful than videos for children.
D.Benefits of gestures are more obvious in adults in the long run.
35.What does the author suggest teachers do in the classroom
A.Make better use of gestures.
B.Teach listening in a systematic way.
C.Avoid traditional teaching approaches.
D.Do some scientific researches on teaching.

People make mistakes all the time, especially when speaking a new language. Don't be sad or feel disappointed if you make mistakes; it's part of the process of improving your speaking ability. 37 . As Albert Einstein said, “Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.”
38 .
Once you have started speaking a new language, don't be afraid to ask people questions about how to say or pronounce something. Most of the time people will be more than happy to help you if you have any questions.
Don't be shy.
One of non-native speakers' problems is being too shy to speak. 39 . Be aware that most people speak more than one language and know how difficult it is to learn a new one. Also, most people really don't even notice if you say something wrong.
Enjoy yourself.
You are learning another language surely for some reasons, so go ahead, have fun, make mistakes and even invent new words! 40 .
A.Ask for help
B.Try to be curious
C.They are all part of the process
D.This can be the biggest problem for a lot of people

Learning languages has many advantages: feeling confident when travelling abroad, making friends 56 (international), being able to read books in the original, and a lot more, like studying and working in other 57 (country). Most people live under the stereotype(刻板印象) that they lose 58 (they) learning abilities with age. However, if faced 59 a challenge when there is no other way except to learn a new foreign language, adults can show great results. Before 60 (decide) how to learn a new language, the first thing is to decide in which situation the language is to be used.
If the target is, for example, 61 (travel) or find new business at some international events, a course focusing on speaking practices is recommended. The basic vocabulary and conversational structures(结构) studied and practised heavily during a short period of time may lead to the needed result, which might be the ability to communicate on the streets or support 62 small business talk. Usually two or three months of study 63 (be) enough to start communicating. However, if brought back shortly to the usual environment, the person might lose the majority of knowledge if there would not be any supporting practice afterwards. Unfortunately, without practical usage 64 further development, the language abilities may go away as easily as they come. The language cannot 65 (learn) once and for all.

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 the first week of Lily's middle school. The bell brought her out of her daydream. She nervously gathered her books, preparing to reach another classroom for the next new class.
Lily followed other kids and rushed into the hallway. Others walked in groups, chatted and laughed, using the break to socialize. Lily, instead, walked alone along the wall of the hallway, with her head down. She was a shy girl, afraid to speak in front of other kids, and didn't think others would like her.
Lily finally sat in Mr. Johnson's Language Arts class nervously. “Welcome to Language Arts,” said Mr. Johnson. He told jokes as he talked about English. Lily forgot to daydream and laughed along with the rest of the class. “We'll have some fun with language,” he said. “Just wait and see.”
Fun was far beyond what Lily desired. She just wanted to be like other kids—running with friends in the hallway, laughing and joking between classes. Reminded of her pimply(长粉刺的) face, she felt hopeless and disappointed.
“Take out a piece of paper,” the teacher continued, pointing at words on the blackboard. “Write for the next thirty minutes on this topic.” Lily began writing crazily as idea after idea fought for recognition in her head. The final result was a short story about a beautiful beach house. As she wrote, she could smell the salty air, hear the crashing waves and feel the pull of the sand beneath her feet. For a moment, she forgot where she was. She was lost in the story.
“OK, pass your paper forward,” said the teacher. “Let's see what we will have.” For the rest of the class time, the teacher read each individual work aloud. Lily originally thought it would be awkward. However, she was gradually attracted by the excitement in the teacher's voice. “He's actually enjoying this,” she thought. When the class would soon be over, there were still fifteen students' works to be read, including Lily's. Then, Mr. Johnson announced his decision, asking these students to read their works themselves in front of the class next time.
注意:续写词数应为150个左右。
A week later, the bell rang and the Language Arts class began again.
After Lily finished her reading, the applause(掌声) from her classmates continued for a long time.

第二部分 阅读
第一节
A
◎语篇解读 本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了四种很棒的语言。
21.C 细节理解题。根据 Arabic 中的“Arabic is written from right to left rather than from left to right, making it different from many other languages.”可知,阿拉伯语的特征是从右往左写。故选C。
22.B 细节理解题。根据 English 中的“English is the most widely spoken second language”可知,作为第二语言使用最广泛的是英语。故选B。
23.A 细节理解题。根据 Italian 中的“Nearly 68 million people speak Italian.”可知,近6,800万人说意大利语。故选A。
B
◎语篇解读 本文是一篇记叙文。文章叙述了作者学习汉语和意大利语的个人经历与感悟。
24.A 细节理解题。根据第一段第二句的“It annoys me that I can't easily answer their unspoken questions”可知,作者不能轻易回答人们未说出口的问题,这让他感到恼怒。所以作者觉得这些问题很难解释。故选A。
25.C 细节理解题。根据第二段第三句“When I worry about not being ready, I watch old Italian movies.”可知,当作者对在意大利学习感到担忧时,会看意大利电影。故选C。
26.D 推理判断题。第三段第三句讲到通过语言建立起联系的那些瞬间让人感觉很特别。接着提到南非前总统曼德拉的话“如果你用一个人听得懂的语言与他交谈,你的话会进入他的大脑。如果你用他的母语和他交谈,那就会进入他的内心”。由此可知,作者引用曼德拉的话是为了表明通过语言感觉到联系的重要性。故选D。
27.B 推理判断题。根据最后一段倒数第二句可知,无论你认为自己多么流利,学习一门语言都没有终点线。所以作者认为学习语言是一个无止境的过程。故选B。
C
◎语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了人工智能写作工具可能带来的问题。
28.B 推理判断题。第一段介绍了谷歌发布的“Help Me Write”工具,它能根据用户指令写邮件和信函,还很有可能大大提高生产力。从全文来看,后文主要围绕人工智能写作展开讨论,第一段提到这个工具是为了引出人工智能写作这一话题。故选B。
29.D 细节理解题。根据第三段提到的“cause trouble”和“created controversy by producing unexpected content, from unsuitable advice to terrible language style”等信息可知,人工智能生成的文本内容不够好。故选D。
30.A 词义猜测题。画线短语前讲到,一个较少被提及的问题是人工智能编写的文本会对语言产生什么影响。结合下一段最后一句作者认为人工智能写作的普遍会让瑞士德语消失以及画线短语中的death及后面提到的endangered languages可推知,画线短语应表示人工智能生成的交流内容可能是濒危语言的“丧钟”,也就是濒危语言“结束的标志”。故选A。
31.C 主旨大意题。文章开篇通过谷歌的“Help Me Write”工具引出人工智能写作的话题,接着介绍了人工智能写作的优势(提高生产力),也指出了其存在的问题(内容不够好),重点阐述了人工智能写作对语言的影响(可能导致濒危语言终结、影响语言发展等)。C项“人工智能对写作和语言的影响”能准确概括文章的主要内容。故选C。
D
◎语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。研究发现利用手势学习外语更有利于记忆词汇。
32.C 细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句可知,Brian Mathias的研究发现,运用手势有利于词汇学习。故选C。
33.C 推理判断题。根据第二段第五句提到的“与此同时,他们的头上安装了设备,向初级运动皮层——控制自主手臂运动的大脑区域——发送微弱的分散注意力的信号”可推知,这种设备会影响大脑活动。故选C。
34.D 推理判断题。根据第三段第二句提到的“两个月后,这两种方法仍然同样有效。但六个月后,成年人从手势中受益比从图片中受益更多,而孩子们则从两者中得到了同等的帮助”可推知,从长远来看,手势学习的好处对成年人更明显。故选D。
35.A 推理判断题。根据最后一段作者引用Goldin-Meadow对教师在课堂上利用手势的看法“我认为我们在课堂上没有充分利用手势。好的老师和好的听众会使用它,但并不总是系统地使用。其他人不一定会把它带到课堂上,但它可以更经常、更有效地被使用”可推知,作者建议老师在课堂上更充分地使用手势。故选A。
第二节
◎语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些克服说新语言的恐惧的建议。
36.G 上文提到学一门新语言时,开始和别人说这种语言可能非常令人害怕,下文提到因为它会帮助我们获得自信,G项(克服这种说一门新语言的恐惧极其重要)承上启下,符合语境。
37.E 上文提到如果你犯了错误,不要难过,也不要感到失望,这是提高你的口语能力的过程的一部分。结合标题中的“make mistakes”可知本段主要在讲犯错误,E项(一旦你犯了错误,改正它,然后继续前进)切题。
38.A 此空是小标题,结合其他标题都是祈使句可知应该在A、B中选择。根据本段的“ask people questions” “be more than happy to help you if you have any questions”可知,本段在讲要寻求帮助,故选A项。
39.D 上文提到非母语者的问题之一就是太害羞而不敢开口。D项(这对很多人来说可能是最大的问题)中的“This”指代上文中的“being too shy to speak”,此处关键词是“problem”。故选D项。
40.C 上文提到你学习另一种语言肯定是有一些原因的,所以着手去学,学得开心一点,犯错,甚至创造新词吧!C项(它们都是这个过程的一部分)总结上文,符合语境。故选C项。
第三部分 语言运用
第一节
◎语篇解读 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了两个男孩去海地旅行,由于不懂法语,他们误把法语中的“poisson”当成英语中的“poison”,认为它是“毒药”的意思,导致他们在餐馆吃饭时没能吃到鱼。
41.A 根据“they took a French wordbook with them”可知,他们随身带了一本法语字典,由此可知,他们不会说法语。故选A项。
42.D 根据“and the hotel was very comfortable”可知,and连接两个并列分句,and后提到酒店非常舒适,由此可知and前对航班的描述也应该是好的,excellent意为“极好的”,符合语境。故选D项。
43.A 根据“decided to eat a big fish dinner in a good restaurant”可知,他们想去餐馆吃一顿丰盛的鱼宴,由此可知,他们厌倦了野餐食物,become tired of doing sth.意为“厌倦做某事”。故选A项。
44.A 根据上文可知,他们去餐馆吃饭,可是他们不会说法语,又没带法语字典,由此可知他们看不懂菜单,所以这里指他们仔细研究菜单。故选A项。
45.B 根据“poison”可知,他们误以为餐馆提供毒药,由此可知,他们认为餐馆的行为是疯狂的。故选B项。
46.B 根据“They spelled it p-o-i-s-s-o-n instead of p-o-i-s-o-n.”可知,他们认为餐馆把“毒药”这个单词拼错了。故选B项。
47.A 根据“to eat something that will kill me”和生活常识可知,史蒂夫不想吃会杀死自己的东西,want to do sth.意为“想要做某事”。故选A项。
48.C 根据“I'm tired of walking around the city”可知,马克不想在城市里到处找餐馆,由此可知,他是疲倦的。故选C项。
49.D 根据“so the food must be good”可知,马克推断餐馆的食物很好吃,由此可知,餐馆里的人一定很多,是拥挤的。故选D项。
50.B 根据上文“decided to eat a big fish dinner”可知,他们本来是打算吃鱼的,由此可知,尽管他们很想吃鱼,但因为他们认为菜单上没有鱼,所以最后决定点牛排。故选B项。
51.D 根据“some tourists speaking English”可知,游客说英语应该是被他们听到。故选D项。
52.D 根据下文“We're lucky...famous for its fish.”可知,游客觉得很幸运,因为他们选了一家以鱼闻名的餐馆,由此可知,他们认为这家餐馆的鱼很好吃。故选D项。
53.B 根据前文内容可知,他们仔细研究了菜单,发现菜单上没有鱼。故选B项。
54.B 根据“why a restaurant like this should have poison on the menu”可知,他们想知道为什么像这样的餐馆的菜单上会有毒药。故选B项。
55.C 根据文章内容可知,两个男孩误把法语中的“poisson”当成了英语中的“poison”,认为它是“毒药”的意思,这个误会使其他游客大笑。故选C项。
第二节
◎语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了学习语言有很多好处,要根据语言的使用场景来决定学习方式,同时介绍了语言学习中持续实践的重要性。
56.internationally 考查副词。设空处修饰making friends,作状语,用副词形式。故填internationally。
57.countries 考查名词复数。country是可数名词,根据空前的other可知,此处表示复数概念,所以用名词复数形式。故填countries。
58.their 考查形容词性物主代词。设空处修饰learning abilities,作定语,表示“他们的”,应用形容词性物主代词。故填their。
59.with 考查介词。句意:然而,如果面临一个除了学习一门新外语之外别无他法的挑战,成年人可以取得很好的成绩。be faced with意为“面临”,这里是if条件状语从句的省略形式(省略主语和be动词)。故填with。
60.deciding 考查动名词。此处Before为介词,故应用动名词作介词的宾语。故填deciding。
61.to travel 考查不定式。句意:比如说,如果目标是旅行或在一些国际活动中寻找新的业务,建议选择一门专注于口语练习的课程。设空处作表语,说明主语target的具体内容,表示将来的动作,故应用不定式。故填to travel。
62.a 考查冠词。句意:在短时间内大量学习和练习的基本词汇和会话结构可能会产生所需的结果,这可能是在街上交流或支撑一个小型商务谈话的能力。talk在句中意为“交谈”,为可数名词,文中泛指“一个小型商务谈话”,应用不定冠词,且small的发音以辅音音素开头。故填a。
63.is 考查时态和主谓一致。句意:通常两三个月的学习就足够开始交流。本句陈述客观事实,应用一般现在时,且句子主语two or three months of study的中心词为study,是不可数名词,故此处be动词用is。
64.or 考查连词。句意:遗憾的是,如果没有实际运用或进一步的发展,语言能力可能会像它们到来时那样轻易地消失。设空处连接without后的两个名词短语practical usage和further development,表示“或者”,所以用连词or。
65.be learned/be learnt 考查语态。设空处构成本句谓语,提示词与主语The language之间为被动关系,且空前为情态动词cannot。故填be learned或be learnt。

第二节
One possible version:
A week later, the bell rang and the Language Arts class began again. Lily was nervous, with her head down. After the other students finished reading the articles one by one, finally, it was Lily's turn. Lily stood in front of the class, with her hands holding her paper, shaking. Seeing it, Mr. Johnson told a funny joke, which made all laugh. Feeling more relaxed, Lily began reading. She was so focused that she felt she was alone. She didn't notice that her story soon attracted all her classmates. They were lost in her fantastic story.
After Lily finished her reading, the applause(掌声) from her classmates continued for a long time. Lily was shocked. When she raised her head, she found everyone staring at her excitedly. Lily finally smiled. She found everyone in the class responded to her story positively. After that class, Lily slowly lifted her head while walking. Later, she began speaking in front of people and enjoyed it. She was grateful to Mr. Johnson who believed in every student.

第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Four Cool Languages
Chinese
Around 1.4 billion people speak Chinese. Chinese is a tonal(声调的) language, meaning that changing the tone of just one syllable (音节) can affect a word's meaning. Chinese writing has ancient roots, which is thought to have developed around 1400 B.C.
Arabic(阿拉伯语)
About 310 million people speak Arabic. Written Arabic uses a cursive-style font(字体) that looks more like artworks than writing. Arabic is written from right to left rather than from left to right, making it different from many other languages.
English
Around 379 million people speak English as a native language. It's an official language in a huge number of countries.
English is the most widely spoken second language, with over a billion people speaking it to some level of competence. That means around twice as many people speaking English as a second language as those who speak it as the first language.
Italian
Nearly 68 million people speak Italian. If you play music or sing, chances are that you already know a lot of Italian because many familiar musical terms are actually Italian.
Not only will learning Italian help you pick up vocabulary, but it will also help you understand the meanings of musical terms in greater depth.
21.What is a feature of Arabic
A.It doesn't have a cursive-style font.
B.It helps artists with their artworks.
C.It is written from right to left.
D.It is closely related to music.
22.Which is most widely used as a second language in the world
A.Arabic. B.English. C.Chinese. D.Italian.
23.What's the number of people who speak Italian
A.Nearly 68 million. B.Around 310 million.
C.Around 379 million. D.Around 1.4 billion.
B
When I tell people I'm learning Chinese and Italian, they often look surprised. It annoys me that I can't easily answer their unspoken questions: “Why do you learn languages you have no personal connection to Why do you spend hours studying languages spoken by people far away ”
In my freshman year, I started learning Italian on a whim(一时兴起). Now, I'm preparing to study at an Italian university. When I worry about not being ready, I watch old Italian movies. I understand little of the dialogue, but the parts I catch mean a lot to me. Like in the film Umberto D., where a main character—an old man, says, “Everyone takes advantage of the ignorant(无知).” These small moments of understanding hit me hard.
As a boy, growing up with Filipino and American parents in Hong Kong, I'm used to language barriers(障碍). Cantonese, the language of my home, is still hard for me. But small moments of connection through languages feel special. As Nelson Mandela, the former president of South Africa, said, “If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his mother tongue, that goes to his heart.”
The more I think about “why” I learn languages, the more I realize it's about “how”. Learning a language makes it easy for you to make mistakes and feel embarrassed. Sometimes, this makes me want to stick with English. But then I watch an Italian film and hear some new words and conversations, which wouldn't be possible without my efforts. I wouldn't feel the connection without failing many times. I've learned that however fluent you may think you are, there is no finish line in learning a language. And that's what keeps me pushing forward in my language journey.
24.How does the author find people's questions
A.They are difficult to explain.
B.They are easy to answer.
C.They make him comfortable.
D.They encourage him in a way.
25.What does the author do when feeling worried about studying in Italy
A.Practice English more. B.Turn to an old man.
C.Watch Italian films. D.Speak with Italians.
26.Why does the author mention what Mandela said
A.To prove the difficulty in understanding.
B.To give the solutions to language barriers.
C.To say the existence of cultural differences.
D.To show the significance of feeling connected.
27.What does the author think of learning a language
A.It helps one avoid mistakes. B.It is an endless process.
C.It is a short-term project. D.It takes fewer efforts.
C
In May 2023, Google released a new, AI-powered tool called “Help Me Write”. The tool writes emails and forms letters based on a user's simple instructions. It promises to greatly improve productivity.
AI is about to have a much larger hand in writing than ever before. With enough training, an AI tool may even be able to learn people's preferences and write in a more personal style.
But the AI-written text can also cause trouble. AI language models have already created controversy(争议) by producing unexpected content, from unsuitable advice to terrible language style.
A lesser talked-about problem is what the AI-written text will do to languages. The introduction of AI-generated communication may also be the death knell for endangered languages.
I have been speaking Swiss German dialects(方言) for half my life. Swiss German is a spoken language with no universal spelling, but that hasn't stopped people from writing in dialect. The introduction of the AI-authored text has changed the communication within my Swiss friend group. When we use AI, a lot of errors appear in our texts and emails. As AI writing becomes common, there's no question that most of us will give up using Swiss German and begin using formal German.
And that's not all. An AI tool may be able to combine words in creative ways, or learn a style from past writing, but it won't naturally invent new slang. We have no idea what this means for language development.
So, as we adopt AI-powered writing tools, it's worth thinking about how they will influence both the conservation and the progress of the language.
28.Why was “Help Me Write” mentioned in Paragraph 1
A.To provide an example. B.To introduce the topic.
C.To advertise an AI tool. D.To support an argument.
29.What might be the disadvantage of the AI-generated text
A.It is a little difficult. B.It uses words incorrectly.
C.It provides answers slowly. D.Its content is not good enough.
30.What does the underlined part “the death knell” in Paragraph 4 mean
A.The sign of the end.
B.The symbol of progress.
C.The chance of improvement.
D.The opportunity to become universal.
31.What is the best title for the text
A.Google's New AI Tool “Help Me Write”
B.The Advantages and Disadvantages of AI
C.The Influence of AI on Writing and Languages
D.The Future of Language Development with AI
D
When learning a foreign language, most people fall back on traditional ways: reading, writing, listening and repeating. But Brian Mathias' research team find out that if you gesture(做手势) with your arms while studying, you can remember the vocabulary better, even months later.
As Mathias describes, they had 22 German-speaking adults learn a total of 90 invented words over four days. While the test subjects first heard the new vocabulary, they were shown a video of a person making a gesture that matched the meaning of the word. When the word was repeated, the subjects performed the gesture themselves. Five months later, they were asked to translate the vocabulary they had learned into German. At the same time, they had equipment attached to their heads that sent weak distracting signals to the primary motor cortex(运动皮层)—the brain area that controls voluntary arm movements. Those who performed better on the task showed a higher level of activity in the motor cortex. The researchers concluded that the motor cortex contributed to the translation of the vocabulary learned with gestures. The effect did not occur when the subjects were only presented with matching pictures instead of gestures.
Another research group led by Leipzig had young adults and eight-year-old children listen to new vocabulary for five days, paired with matching pictures or videos of gestures. After two months, the two methods were still equally effective. But after six months, the adults benefited more from the gestures than the pictures, while the children were helped equally by both.
But it is not only the motor cortex itself that promotes learning. The meaning expressed by the gesture also figures in learning. “I think we underuse gesture in our classrooms,” Goldin-Meadow says. “Good teachers and good listeners use it, but not always in a systematic way. Others don't necessarily bring it into the class—but it could be used more often and more effectively.”
32.What do we know according to Brian Mathias' research
A.Those only presented with matching pictures performed better.
B.The motor cortex had nothing to do with vocabulary learning.
C.The research concluded that gestures benefited vocabulary learning.
D.22 German-speaking adults and children were chosen as the test subjects.
33.Why was equipment attached to the subjects' heads during Mathias' test
A.To count words.
B.To record emotion.
C.To influence brain activity.
D.To give clues to questions.
34.What does Leipzig's research tell us about language learning
A.Adults and children are equally good learners.
B.Pictures have little influence on language learning.
C.Pictures are found more helpful than videos for children.
D.Benefits of gestures are more obvious in adults in the long run.
35.What does the author suggest teachers do in the classroom
A.Make better use of gestures.
B.Teach listening in a systematic way.
C.Avoid traditional teaching approaches.
D.Do some scientific researches on teaching.

Once you have started speaking a new language, don't be afraid to ask people questions about how to say or pronounce something. Most of the time people will be more than happy to help you if you have any questions.
Don't be shy.
One of non-native speakers' problems is being too shy to speak. 39 . Be aware that most people speak more than one language and know how difficult it is to learn a new one. Also, most people really don't even notice if you say something wrong.
Enjoy yourself.
You are learning another language surely for some reasons, so go ahead, have fun, make mistakes and even invent new words! 40 .

B.Try to be curious

Learning languages has many advantages: feeling confident when travelling abroad, making friends 56 (international), being able to read books in the original, and a lot more, like studying and working in other 57 (country). Most people live under the stereotype(刻板印象) that they lose 58 (they) learning abilities with age. However, if faced 59 a challenge when there is no other way except to learn a new foreign language, adults can show great results. Before 60 (decide) how to learn a new language, the first thing is to decide in which situation the language is to be used.
If the target is, for example, 61 (travel) or find new business at some international events, a course focusing on speaking practices is recommended. The basic vocabulary and conversational structures(结构) studied and practised heavily during a short period of time may lead to the needed result, which might be the ability to communicate on the streets or support 62 small business talk. Usually two or three months of study 63 (be) enough to start communicating. However, if brought back shortly to the usual environment, the person might lose the majority of knowledge if there would not be any supporting practice afterwards. Unfortunately, without practical usage 64 further development, the language abilities may go away as easily as they come. The language cannot 65 (learn) once and for all.

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 the first week of Lily's middle school. The bell brought her out of her daydream. She nervously gathered her books, preparing to reach another classroom for the next new class.
Lily followed other kids and rushed into the hallway. Others walked in groups, chatted and laughed, using the break to socialize. Lily, instead, walked alone along the wall of the hallway, with her head down. She was a shy girl, afraid to speak in front of other kids, and didn't think others would like her.
Lily finally sat in Mr. Johnson's Language Arts class nervously. “Welcome to Language Arts,” said Mr. Johnson. He told jokes as he talked about English. Lily forgot to daydream and laughed along with the rest of the class. “We'll have some fun with language,” he said. “Just wait and see.”
Fun was far beyond what Lily desired. She just wanted to be like other kids—running with friends in the hallway, laughing and joking between classes. Reminded of her pimply(长粉刺的) face, she felt hopeless and disappointed.
“Take out a piece of paper,” the teacher continued, pointing at words on the blackboard. “Write for the next thirty minutes on this topic.” Lily began writing crazily as idea after idea fought for recognition in her head. The final result was a short story about a beautiful beach house. As she wrote, she could smell the salty air, hear the crashing waves and feel the pull of the sand beneath her feet. For a moment, she forgot where she was. She was lost in the story.
“OK, pass your paper forward,” said the teacher. “Let's see what we will have.” For the rest of the class time, the teacher read each individual work aloud. Lily originally thought it would be awkward. However, she was gradually attracted by the excitement in the teacher's voice. “He's actually enjoying this,” she thought. When the class would soon be over, there were still fifteen students' works to be read, including Lily's. Then, Mr. Johnson announced his decision, asking these students to read their works themselves in front of the class next time.
注意:续写词数应为150个左右。
A week later, the bell rang and the Language Arts class began again.
After Lily finished her reading, the applause(掌声) from her classmates continued for a long time.

21.C 细节理解题。根据 Arabic 中的“Arabic is written from right to left rather than from left to right, making it different from many other languages.”可知,阿拉伯语的特征是从右往左写。故选C。
22.B 细节理解题。根据 English 中的“English is the most widely spoken second language”可知,作为第二语言使用最广泛的是英语。故选B。
23.A 细节理解题。根据 Italian 中的“Nearly 68 million people speak Italian.”可知,近6,800万人说意大利语。故选A。
B
◎语篇解读 本文是一篇记叙文。文章叙述了作者学习汉语和意大利语的个人经历与感悟。
24.A 细节理解题。根据第一段第二句的“It annoys me that I can't easily answer their unspoken questions”可知,作者不能轻易回答人们未说出口的问题,这让他感到恼怒。所以作者觉得这些问题很难解释。故选A。
25.C 细节理解题。根据第二段第三句“When I worry about not being ready, I watch old Italian movies.”可知,当作者对在意大利学习感到担忧时,会看意大利电影。故选C。
26.D 推理判断题。第三段第三句讲到通过语言建立起联系的那些瞬间让人感觉很特别。接着提到南非前总统曼德拉的话“如果你用一个人听得懂的语言与他交谈,你的话会进入他的大脑。如果你用他的母语和他交谈,那就会进入他的内心”。由此可知,作者引用曼德拉的话是为了表明通过语言感觉到联系的重要性。故选D。
27.B 推理判断题。根据最后一段倒数第二句可知,无论你认为自己多么流利,学习一门语言都没有终点线。所以作者认为学习语言是一个无止境的过程。故选B。
C
◎语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了人工智能写作工具可能带来的问题。
28.B 推理判断题。第一段介绍了谷歌发布的“Help Me Write”工具,它能根据用户指令写邮件和信函,还很有可能大大提高生产力。从全文来看,后文主要围绕人工智能写作展开讨论,第一段提到这个工具是为了引出人工智能写作这一话题。故选B。
29.D 细节理解题。根据第三段提到的“cause trouble”和“created controversy by producing unexpected content, from unsuitable advice to terrible language style”等信息可知,人工智能生成的文本内容不够好。故选D。
30.A 词义猜测题。画线短语前讲到,一个较少被提及的问题是人工智能编写的文本会对语言产生什么影响。结合下一段最后一句作者认为人工智能写作的普遍会让瑞士德语消失以及画线短语中的death及后面提到的endangered languages可推知,画线短语应表示人工智能生成的交流内容可能是濒危语言的“丧钟”,也就是濒危语言“结束的标志”。故选A。
31.C 主旨大意题。文章开篇通过谷歌的“Help Me Write”工具引出人工智能写作的话题,接着介绍了人工智能写作的优势(提高生产力),也指出了其存在的问题(内容不够好),重点阐述了人工智能写作对语言的影响(可能导致濒危语言终结、影响语言发展等)。C项“人工智能对写作和语言的影响”能准确概括文章的主要内容。故选C。
D
◎语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。研究发现利用手势学习外语更有利于记忆词汇。
32.C 细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句可知,Brian Mathias的研究发现,运用手势有利于词汇学习。故选C。
33.C 推理判断题。根据第二段第五句提到的“与此同时,他们的头上安装了设备,向初级运动皮层——控制自主手臂运动的大脑区域——发送微弱的分散注意力的信号”可推知,这种设备会影响大脑活动。故选C。
34.D 推理判断题。根据第三段第二句提到的“两个月后,这两种方法仍然同样有效。但六个月后,成年人从手势中受益比从图片中受益更多,而孩子们则从两者中得到了同等的帮助”可推知,从长远来看,手势学习的好处对成年人更明显。故选D。
35.A 推理判断题。根据最后一段作者引用Goldin-Meadow对教师在课堂上利用手势的看法“我认为我们在课堂上没有充分利用手势。好的老师和好的听众会使用它,但并不总是系统地使用。其他人不一定会把它带到课堂上,但它可以更经常、更有效地被使用”可推知,作者建议老师在课堂上更充分地使用手势。故选A。
第二节
◎语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些克服说新语言的恐惧的建议。
36.G 上文提到学一门新语言时,开始和别人说这种语言可能非常令人害怕,下文提到因为它会帮助我们获得自信,G项(克服这种说一门新语言的恐惧极其重要)承上启下,符合语境。
37.E 上文提到如果你犯了错误,不要难过,也不要感到失望,这是提高你的口语能力的过程的一部分。结合标题中的“make mistakes”可知本段主要在讲犯错误,E项(一旦你犯了错误,改正它,然后继续前进)切题。
38.A 此空是小标题,结合其他标题都是祈使句可知应该在A、B中选择。根据本段的“ask people questions” “be more than happy to help you if you have any questions”可知,本段在讲要寻求帮助,故选A项。
39.D 上文提到非母语者的问题之一就是太害羞而不敢开口。D项(这对很多人来说可能是最大的问题)中的“This”指代上文中的“being too shy to speak”,此处关键词是“problem”。故选D项。
40.C 上文提到你学习另一种语言肯定是有一些原因的,所以着手去学,学得开心一点,犯错,甚至创造新词吧!C项(它们都是这个过程的一部分)总结上文,符合语境。故选C项。
第三部分 语言运用
第一节
◎语篇解读 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了两个男孩去海地旅行,由于不懂法语,他们误把法语中的“poisson”当成英语中的“poison”,认为它是“毒药”的意思,导致他们在餐馆吃饭时没能吃到鱼。
41.A 根据“they took a French wordbook with them”可知,他们随身带了一本法语字典,由此可知,他们不会说法语。故选A项。
42.D 根据“and the hotel was very comfortable”可知,and连接两个并列分句,and后提到酒店非常舒适,由此可知and前对航班的描述也应该是好的,excellent意为“极好的”,符合语境。故选D项。
43.A 根据“decided to eat a big fish dinner in a good restaurant”可知,他们想去餐馆吃一顿丰盛的鱼宴,由此可知,他们厌倦了野餐食物,become tired of doing sth.意为“厌倦做某事”。故选A项。
44.A 根据上文可知,他们去餐馆吃饭,可是他们不会说法语,又没带法语字典,由此可知他们看不懂菜单,所以这里指他们仔细研究菜单。故选A项。
45.B 根据“poison”可知,他们误以为餐馆提供毒药,由此可知,他们认为餐馆的行为是疯狂的。故选B项。
46.B 根据“They spelled it p-o-i-s-s-o-n instead of p-o-i-s-o-n.”可知,他们认为餐馆把“毒药”这个单词拼错了。故选B项。
47.A 根据“to eat something that will kill me”和生活常识可知,史蒂夫不想吃会杀死自己的东西,want to do sth.意为“想要做某事”。故选A项。
48.C 根据“I'm tired of walking around the city”可知,马克不想在城市里到处找餐馆,由此可知,他是疲倦的。故选C项。
49.D 根据“so the food must be good”可知,马克推断餐馆的食物很好吃,由此可知,餐馆里的人一定很多,是拥挤的。故选D项。
50.B 根据上文“decided to eat a big fish dinner”可知,他们本来是打算吃鱼的,由此可知,尽管他们很想吃鱼,但因为他们认为菜单上没有鱼,所以最后决定点牛排。故选B项。
51.D 根据“some tourists speaking English”可知,游客说英语应该是被他们听到。故选D项。
52.D 根据下文“We're lucky...famous for its fish.”可知,游客觉得很幸运,因为他们选了一家以鱼闻名的餐馆,由此可知,他们认为这家餐馆的鱼很好吃。故选D项。
53.B 根据前文内容可知,他们仔细研究了菜单,发现菜单上没有鱼。故选B项。
54.B 根据“why a restaurant like this should have poison on the menu”可知,他们想知道为什么像这样的餐馆的菜单上会有毒药。故选B项。
55.C 根据文章内容可知,两个男孩误把法语中的“poisson”当成了英语中的“poison”,认为它是“毒药”的意思,这个误会使其他游客大笑。故选C项。
第二节
◎语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了学习语言有很多好处,要根据语言的使用场景来决定学习方式,同时介绍了语言学习中持续实践的重要性。
56.internationally 考查副词。设空处修饰making friends,作状语,用副词形式。故填internationally。
57.countries 考查名词复数。country是可数名词,根据空前的other可知,此处表示复数概念,所以用名词复数形式。故填countries。
58.their 考查形容词性物主代词。设空处修饰learning abilities,作定语,表示“他们的”,应用形容词性物主代词。故填their。
59.with 考查介词。句意:然而,如果面临一个除了学习一门新外语之外别无他法的挑战,成年人可以取得很好的成绩。be faced with意为“面临”,这里是if条件状语从句的省略形式(省略主语和be动词)。故填with。
60.deciding 考查动名词。此处Before为介词,故应用动名词作介词的宾语。故填deciding。
61.to travel 考查不定式。句意:比如说,如果目标是旅行或在一些国际活动中寻找新的业务,建议选择一门专注于口语练习的课程。设空处作表语,说明主语target的具体内容,表示将来的动作,故应用不定式。故填to travel。
62.a 考查冠词。句意:在短时间内大量学习和练习的基本词汇和会话结构可能会产生所需的结果,这可能是在街上交流或支撑一个小型商务谈话的能力。talk在句中意为“交谈”,为可数名词,文中泛指“一个小型商务谈话”,应用不定冠词,且small的发音以辅音音素开头。故填a。
63.is 考查时态和主谓一致。句意:通常两三个月的学习就足够开始交流。本句陈述客观事实,应用一般现在时,且句子主语two or three months of study的中心词为study,是不可数名词,故此处be动词用is。
64.or 考查连词。句意:遗憾的是,如果没有实际运用或进一步的发展,语言能力可能会像它们到来时那样轻易地消失。设空处连接without后的两个名词短语practical usage和further development,表示“或者”,所以用连词or。
65.be learned/be learnt 考查语态。设空处构成本句谓语,提示词与主语The language之间为被动关系,且空前为情态动词cannot。故填be learned或be learnt。

Hello, everyone!
I'd like to share a good habit that has greatly benefited my English learning with you.
It's the habit of setting specific and achievable goals for each study session.

This habit has not only improved my efficiency but also boosted my confidence as I can see myself making progress step by step. Moreover, it has helped me stay motivated and organized, leading to better academic performance.
I encourage you to give it a try and experience the positive impact it can have on your studies.
Thank you!
第二节
One possible version:
A week later, the bell rang and the Language Arts class began again. Lily was nervous, with her head down. After the other students finished reading the articles one by one, finally, it was Lily's turn. Lily stood in front of the class, with her hands holding her paper, shaking. Seeing it, Mr. Johnson told a funny joke, which made all laugh. Feeling more relaxed, Lily began reading. She was so focused that she felt she was alone. She didn't notice that her story soon attracted all her classmates. They were lost in her fantastic story.
After Lily finished her reading, the applause(掌声) from her classmates continued for a long time. Lily was shocked. When she raised her head, she found everyone staring at her excitedly. Lily finally smiled. She found everyone in the class responded to her story positively. After that class, Lily slowly lifted her head while walking. Later, she began speaking in front of people and enjoyed it. She was grateful to Mr. Johnson who believed in every student.
