A boy won people’s hearts after he came up with a heart-warming use for his birthday money： launching a food bank service from his garden shed （棚屋）. Isaac Winfield， who was born with a rare chromosome （染色体） disorder， started the initiative in 2020 after learning that his new school didn’t accept food donations.
The boy’s mother， Claire， said， “We’d always donated to food banks and during the pandemic he would take food parcels into school which would be given to people in need. When Isaac moved from a mainstream school to a specialist school， he was left confused as to what he was going to do with his food parcels.”
“Being determined， Isaac said， ‘It’s alright； I’ll give them food at my house.’” the 42-year-old continued. “So I doubled the money I gave him normally for food parcels and he went off to Aldi. With a little bit of help， he put all the food he bought in a little greenhouse with some lights and started offering it from there. Someone spotted it and put it on one of those Facebook community sites， and then people came with donations. The greenhouse lasted four weeks before he had to get a shed because we ran out of room.”
“In 2021， we were funded a bigger shed. Isaac ran his little shed and his big shed on the big driveway，” she added. Today， well-wishers can donate food or ask for supplies by contacting Isaac via his Friend’s of Isaac Food Bank Facebook page. The boy fills bags of groceries that have been donated and hands them out to the needy around his hometown. Those in need can also directly visit his food bank sheds and help themselves to whatever they require.
This year， Isaac asked his family and friends to make food bank donations instead of buying him gifts for his 11th birthday. “Isaac has always been kind-hearted，” said Claire. “I think he has been doing something great by helping others. He can’t read or write but he can fundraise.”
24.What directly made Isaac Winfield launch his food bank service？（ ）
A.The difficulty of getting enough food parcels.
B.His school’s refusal to accept food donations.
C.His desire to get on well with others at school.
D.The spread of the pandemic in his new school.
25.What does the underlined word “Aldi” in paragraph 3 probably refer to？（ ）
A.A school. B.A shed.
C.A supermarket. D.A food bank.
26.What plays a key role in the expansion of Isaac Winfield’s food bank？（ ）
A.The social support. B.His increasing savings.
C.His school’s encouragement. D.The growing demand for food.
27.How does the author mainly organize the text？（ ）
A.By listing Isaac’s moving life stories. B.By using Isaac’s mother’s statements.
C.By making a list of Isaac’s daily routines. D.By referring to comments on Isaac’s deeds.

（2025·台州高二期末）Consumers may soon find meat on restaurant menus that has never walked the Earth — grown from cell to fillet （肉块）. The product， called “cultured” or “cultivated” meat， is reaching more plates. Cultivated chicken has been sold in a Singapore restaurant since 2020， and recently the Department of Agriculture has approved the sale of cultured chicken in the United States. More than 150 businesses worldwide are working to put beef， fish， and pork on the market， too.
Cultured meat begins as a cell from an egg or a piece of traditionally butchered meat. Fed with certain nutrients for two or three weeks， the meat is processed into forms that consumers are familiar with. “Initial research is in a lab， but the meat is made in a production facility，” says Josh Tetrick， CEO of Good Meat， one of the USDA-approved cultured chicken manufacturers. The company has made public their own nutrient analysis， evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration， which reveals that the nutritional profiles of their products are almost identical to conventional meat.
By alleviating the raising and killing of animals cultured meat companies say their product helps reduce animal cruelty and will be better for the environment. Their process uses far less land because there’s no need to house animals or grow their feed. Cultured beef， especially， could reduce the number of cattle on farms — a significant source of methane emissions. However， some studies contradicted that cultured meat may also require greater energy usage than conventional production. Much of the environmental impact will depend on whether the energy used is renewable and on the efficiency of future production technology.
Given a growing consumer consciousness around animal rights and climate change， supporters foresee a future meat market where consumers will choose between different kinds of conventional meat， cultured meat， and plant-based alternatives. Approved sale of cultivated chicken in the U.S. is a landmark moment， but not yet a revolution. While cultured meat’s widespread consumption and impact on the economy seem a step closer to reality， scientists， philosophers， and the product’s own manufacturers acknowledge years of work lie ahead.
28.What’s the first paragraph mainly about？（ ）
A.The official approval of meat marketing. B.The growing popularity of meat products.
C.The increasing promotion of cultured meat. D.The widespread consumption of cultured chicken.
29.In what way is cultured meat similar to conventional meat？（ ）
A.Initial forms. B.Production efficiency.
C.Nutritional contents. D.Consumption prospect.
30.Why does the author mention cultured beef in paragraph 3？（ ）
A.To explain the process of raising animals.
B.To compare cultured meat and conventional meat.
C.To emphasize the environmental benefits of cultured meat.
D.To highlight the significance of reducing methane emissions.
31.What attitude do scientists hold for the future consumption of cultured meat？（ ）
A.Cautious. B.Confident.
C.Doubtful. D.Worried.

Felix Ruppert and Alexander Badri-Sprowitz at the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems in Stuttgart， Germany， designed a half-metre-high robot called Morti and gave it the capacity to teach itself how to walk， rather than to perform a pre-programmed step. The four-legged robot took only an hour to learn how to walk steadily， roughly the same amount of time as newborn horses need. And it’s the first time that a machine learning technique has been so successfully applied to four-legged robots.
Morti is controlled by an artificial intelligence （AI） algorithm （算法） that doesn’t have much information about the robot’s legs， such as the exact shape of each element. “The AI， working like the central nervous system， gives walking instructions for Morti to follow. It then adjusts them on the basis of readings from foot sentences that signal when the robot falls and loses contact with the ground. Initially， Morti falls down， but after about an hour the AI finds the best way to make it walk，” said Ruppert.
Because the AI learns rather than calculating details of each leg’s movement in advance， which can use a lot of energy， Morti walks using 42 percent less energy than when it first starts at the end of an hour-long learning process. Morti’s process copies the way baby animals learn to move， as they also find the most efficient way to use their muscles by trying and initially tripping.
Dhireesha Kudithipudi at the University of Texas at San Antonio said that AI robots can often learn a specific task very well but can’t make readjustments when the environment changes and that Morti’s design， which relies on continually adjusting the robot’s movement， may perform better in that regard. Ruppert said he and the team are working on adding more sensors and range of motion to Morti in a gesture to make it a more animal-like robot.
32.What is special about Morti？（ ）
A.It is pre-programmed to walk. B.It can learn to walk by itself.
C.It is the first four-legged robot. D.It can help teach the newborns.
33.Which aspect of Morti is stressed in paragraph 2？（ ）
A.Its body structure. B.Its design concept.
C.Its learning process. D.Its working conditions.
34.How does the AI’s learning ability benefit Morti？（ ）
A.By predicting Morti’s leg movement. B.By training Morti’s muscles to the best.
C.By lowering Morti’s energy consumption. D.By strengthening Morti’s bond with others.
35.What is Dhireesha Kudithipudi’s attitude towards Morti？（ ）
A.Doubtful. B.Cautious.
C.Subjective. D.Favorable.

ChatGPT， developed by OpenAI， an AI company， is a chatbot known for its ability to quickly and clearly answer questions and provide detailed information in a conversational way. 36.（ ） Now people are starting to use it as a therapist （治疗师） in mental health care.
Compared with human therapist， ChatGPT has many advantages. For patients， human therapists might judge them or treat them differently while an AI therapist won’t. Besides， a human therapist can only speak to one person at a time and the average therapy fees are high. 37.（ ） It provides a timely response to help patients move forward with their problems.
38.（ ） As it isn’t designed to be a therapist， there are risks in getting suggestions from an AI robot who didn’t go to medical school. What’s more， the face-to-face communication is a huge part of what makes therapy effective. AI-based therapists can’t notice facial expressions， nor are they able to provide the same level of emotional support as a human can. 39.（ ） After you share information with an AI therapist， where does it go？ Could it be stored in public databases， and then be used or shared by others？
It’s still early days for AI related to mental health. In the future， it is likely that AI-based tools will be able to provide more personalized suggestions for individuals suffering from various mental health problems. But even if technology gets there， AI should only play a supporting role. 40.（ ）
A.Privacy issues are another concern.
B.But ChatGPT is available anytime and anywhere， for free.
C.It can not be a replacement for talking to a human professional.
D.At the same time， there are disadvantages in ChatGPT’s stability.
E.Thirdly， human therapists can tell a patient’s psychological state better.
F.It has gained massive popularity and widespread usage since its launch.
G.However， some experts warn that AI therapists may have some limitations.

The AI then learned about the brain activities on the basis of the 61. （analyze） of changes in blood flow and then matched the brain activities with the photos. Through this method， AI learned how human brains would react when seeing different photos.
62. （ultimate）， the researchers tested the AI on additional brain scans from the same participants when they viewed photos of a toy bear， airplane， clock and train. If the person looked at an airplane， for example， the AI would use the brain scan data to create an image of a vague airplane. Then， it would turn 63. the previous “text-to-image” model and improve the quality of the image by feeding itself the keyword “airplane”.

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。
On a bitterly cold January day， I saw Bobby in my fourth-grade classroom for the first time. He was wearing worn-out shirt and jeans， obviously too small. One of his shoes was missing a lace， flopping （移动） up and down when he walked. He looked so disgusting that nobody would treat him as a normal child.
Bobby’s behavior was strange， too. His normal tone of voice was a yell. He never made eye contact with anyone， and made his comments continuously during class.
Besides， Bobby’s academic skills were non-existent. He couldn’t read or write， not even the letters of the alphabet.
I thought Bobby should belong in a classroom that taught basic social skills. I checked his records and was shocked to learn that his IQ was normal. The school counselor （辅导顾问） told me that Bobby was a lot closer to normal than his mother was. He had been placed in Children’s Welfare Home for the first three years of his life before he was returned to his mother. They had moved to a different town at least once a year. Bobby’s intelligence was normal， so he would remain in my classroom.
I hated it but had to accept his being in my class. I had never taught someone like Bobby before. It was a struggle to even plan lessons for him. I took pride in being a good teacher， and I was disgusted with myself for not liking him and not wanting him in my class. One day， Bobby came into the classroom with his shirt torn and his nose bloodied. He had been jumped on by a group of my students. Bobby sat down and opened his book， pretending nothing had happened. Blood and tears dropped onto the pages. I sent Bobby to the nurse and scolded those students angrily. I yelled that they ought to be ashamed of themselves for not liking him just because he acted strangely. His being different was even more reason to treat him kindly.
注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右；2.请按如下格式作答。
That incident changed how I felt about Bobby.
It was amazing to see the change in Bobby that resulted from the new clothes and extra attention.

W：Dad， you put a little too much salt in it. Besides， it’s burned. And what’s that？
M：That’s just part of my own recipe. I added some pumpkin.
W：Oh， not another one of your surprises. Pumpkin doesn’t go with pizza！
（Text 8）
M：Laura， what was your first job？
W：The first job I had was a sales assistant in a shoe shop. When I was fifteen， I got my first job and I used to work every Saturday for 8 hours a day and I used to earn 1.5 pounds per hour.
M：It doesn’t sound like very much.
W：No， so in England now， the minimum may be 5 pounds.
M：Oh， wow！ So how long did you work at this job？
W：I worked all together in three different shoe shops. In the first one I worked for a year and then it closed down. After that they moved me to another one， the same company. Three months later they moved me to a new shoe shop because they were short of hands. But half a year later I left my job when I had to study for my exams at school.
（Text 9）
W：Oh， where are we going？
M：I want to show you something.
W：I know， but what is it？
M：A farm. It’s just down this road. It’s a small place， but at least it would be our own.
W：A farm？ How can we afford to buy a farm？
M：It isn’t large， only 1 acre. We wouldn’t have to pay very much right now.
W：Is there a house on the farm？
M：A small one， two bedrooms， but it needs to be fixed up a little. I can do the job myself.
W：OK. Is there enough space for a kitchen garden？
M：There is about half an acre behind the house. That’s plenty of space. We can probably grow a lot of our own food.
W：What are you thinking about growing？
M：Well， it really isn’t big enough for corn. I thought we might try to raise a crop of potatoes.
W：Do we have enough money to get all of these？
M：I think we’ve saved enough. We can also ask John about the money he borrowed from us.

Good morning， boys and girls. As we know， in the past years our school held many competitions successfully every year， like Singing Competition and Dancing Competition. In fact I do know most of the students will want to have the Reading Competition as was held last year. But， now we’ll have something that may be much more fun. It’s the Pet Competition！ Well， in fact， it aims at letting all students know the importance of loving animals. Nowadays， too many people can’t treat animals so well. They do not think carefully before getting a pet.
At the competition， you will not be disappointed because our teachers will not give you boring lessons to ask you to love animals. Instead， we can all learn something from a relaxing environment. There’s a dog beauty contest and we will choose the best dog. The competition will be based on the dogs’ ability. Unfortunately this competition is not open to your pets this year. Our school has selected five dogs for this competition. That means， we can just sit back and enjoy. So please come to join this event and vote for your favorite dogs！ How can you afford to miss such an educational and fun event of the year？

A boy won people’s hearts after he came up with a heart-warming use for his birthday money： launching a food bank service from his garden shed （棚屋）. Isaac Winfield， who was born with a rare chromosome （染色体） disorder， started the initiative in 2020 after learning that his new school didn’t accept food donations.
The boy’s mother， Claire， said， “We’d always donated to food banks and during the pandemic he would take food parcels into school which would be given to people in need. When Isaac moved from a mainstream school to a specialist school， he was left confused as to what he was going to do with his food parcels.”
“Being determined， Isaac said， ‘It’s alright； I’ll give them food at my house.’” the 42-year-old continued. “So I doubled the money I gave him normally for food parcels and he went off to Aldi. With a little bit of help， he put all the food he bought in a little greenhouse with some lights and started offering it from there. Someone spotted it and put it on one of those Facebook community sites， and then people came with donations. The greenhouse lasted four weeks before he had to get a shed because we ran out of room.”
“In 2021， we were funded a bigger shed. Isaac ran his little shed and his big shed on the big driveway，” she added. Today， well-wishers can donate food or ask for supplies by contacting Isaac via his Friend’s of Isaac Food Bank Facebook page. The boy fills bags of groceries that have been donated and hands them out to the needy around his hometown. Those in need can also directly visit his food bank sheds and help themselves to whatever they require.
This year， Isaac asked his family and friends to make food bank donations instead of buying him gifts for his 11th birthday. “Isaac has always been kind-hearted，” said Claire. “I think he has been doing something great by helping others. He can’t read or write but he can fundraise.”
语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一个小男孩在自己家里经营食物银行以帮助他人的故事。

（2025·台州高二期末）Consumers may soon find meat on restaurant menus that has never walked the Earth — grown from cell to fillet （肉块）. The product， called “cultured” or “cultivated” meat， is reaching more plates. Cultivated chicken has been sold in a Singapore restaurant since 2020， and recently the Department of Agriculture has approved the sale of cultured chicken in the United States. More than 150 businesses worldwide are working to put beef， fish， and pork on the market， too.
Cultured meat begins as a cell from an egg or a piece of traditionally butchered meat. Fed with certain nutrients for two or three weeks， the meat is processed into forms that consumers are familiar with. “Initial research is in a lab， but the meat is made in a production facility，” says Josh Tetrick， CEO of Good Meat， one of the USDA-approved cultured chicken manufacturers. The company has made public their own nutrient analysis， evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration， which reveals that the nutritional profiles of their products are almost identical to conventional meat.
By alleviating the raising and killing of animals cultured meat companies say their product helps reduce animal cruelty and will be better for the environment. Their process uses far less land because there’s no need to house animals or grow their feed. Cultured beef， especially， could reduce the number of cattle on farms — a significant source of methane emissions. However， some studies contradicted that cultured meat may also require greater energy usage than conventional production. Much of the environmental impact will depend on whether the energy used is renewable and on the efficiency of future production technology.
Given a growing consumer consciousness around animal rights and climate change， supporters foresee a future meat market where consumers will choose between different kinds of conventional meat， cultured meat， and plant-based alternatives. Approved sale of cultivated chicken in the U.S. is a landmark moment， but not yet a revolution. While cultured meat’s widespread consumption and impact on the economy seem a step closer to reality， scientists， philosophers， and the product’s own manufacturers acknowledge years of work lie ahead.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了人造肉在全世界的推广力度越来越大，但未来还有好多工作要做。

Felix Ruppert and Alexander Badri-Sprowitz at the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems in Stuttgart， Germany， designed a half-metre-high robot called Morti and gave it the capacity to teach itself how to walk， rather than to perform a pre-programmed step. The four-legged robot took only an hour to learn how to walk steadily， roughly the same amount of time as newborn horses need. And it’s the first time that a machine learning technique has been so successfully applied to four-legged robots.
Morti is controlled by an artificial intelligence （AI） algorithm （算法） that doesn’t have much information about the robot’s legs， such as the exact shape of each element. “The AI， working like the central nervous system， gives walking instructions for Morti to follow. It then adjusts them on the basis of readings from foot sentences that signal when the robot falls and loses contact with the ground. Initially， Morti falls down， but after about an hour the AI finds the best way to make it walk，” said Ruppert.
Because the AI learns rather than calculating details of each leg’s movement in advance， which can use a lot of energy， Morti walks using 42 percent less energy than when it first starts at the end of an hour-long learning process. Morti’s process copies the way baby animals learn to move， as they also find the most efficient way to use their muscles by trying and initially tripping.
Dhireesha Kudithipudi at the University of Texas at San Antonio said that AI robots can often learn a specific task very well but can’t make readjustments when the environment changes and that Morti’s design， which relies on continually adjusting the robot’s movement， may perform better in that regard. Ruppert said he and the team are working on adding more sensors and range of motion to Morti in a gesture to make it a more animal-like robot.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一款只用了一小时就学会走路的四条腿的机器人。
32.What is special about Morti？（ ）
A.It is pre-programmed to walk.
B.It can learn to walk by itself.
C.It is the first four-legged robot.
D.It can help teach the newborns.
解析：B 细节理解题。根据第一段第一句可知，Morti的特殊之处在于它可以教会自己走路，即自学走路。
33.Which aspect of Morti is stressed in paragraph 2？（ ）
A.Its body structure.
B.Its design concept.
C.Its learning process.
D.Its working conditions.
解析：C 推理判断题。根据第二段内容可知，本段强调的是Morti学习走路的过程。
34.How does the AI’s learning ability benefit Morti？（ ）
A.By predicting Morti’s leg movement.
B.By training Morti’s muscles to the best.
C.By lowering Morti’s energy consumption.
D.By strengthening Morti’s bond with others.
解析：C 细节理解题。根据第三段第一句可知，人工智能的学习能力减少了Morti的能量消耗。
35.What is Dhireesha Kudithipudi’s attitude towards Morti？（ ）
A.Doubtful. B.Cautious.
C.Subjective. D.Favorable.
解析：D 推理判断题。根据最后一段可知，Dhireesha Kudithipudi表示，人工智能机器人通常可以很好地学习一项特定任务，但无法在环境变化时重新调整，Morti的设计依赖于不断调整机器人的运动，因此它在这方面可能会表现得更好。由此判断，Dhireesha Kudithipudi对Morti应是持肯定、支持的态度。

ChatGPT， developed by OpenAI， an AI company， is a chatbot known for its ability to quickly and clearly answer questions and provide detailed information in a conversational way. 36.（ ） Now people are starting to use it as a therapist （治疗师） in mental health care.
Compared with human therapist， ChatGPT has many advantages. For patients， human therapists might judge them or treat them differently while an AI therapist won’t. Besides， a human therapist can only speak to one person at a time and the average therapy fees are high. 37.（ ） It provides a timely response to help patients move forward with their problems.
38.（ ） As it isn’t designed to be a therapist， there are risks in getting suggestions from an AI robot who didn’t go to medical school. What’s more， the face-to-face communication is a huge part of what makes therapy effective. AI-based therapists can’t notice facial expressions， nor are they able to provide the same level of emotional support as a human can. 39.（ ） After you share information with an AI therapist， where does it go？ Could it be stored in public databases， and then be used or shared by others？
It’s still early days for AI related to mental health. In the future， it is likely that AI-based tools will be able to provide more personalized suggestions for individuals suffering from various mental health problems. But even if technology gets there， AI should only play a supporting role. 40.（ ）
A.Privacy issues are another concern.
B.But ChatGPT is available anytime and anywhere， for free.
C.It can not be a replacement for talking to a human professional.
D.At the same time， there are disadvantages in ChatGPT’s stability.
E.Thirdly， human therapists can tell a patient’s psychological state better.
F.It has gained massive popularity and widespread usage since its launch.
G.However， some experts warn that AI therapists may have some limitations.

The advantages and disadvantages of the robots
Robots have entered ordinary people’s lives widely since the past century.People have different attitudes towards robots.
Some people are in favour of the application of robots.Robots are beneficial due to their high working efficiency.They are able to work faster and more efficiently，which increases productivity.Not only are the robots productive，but they can also help the recovery of patients.If a person’s leg gets injured，the devices equipped on his leg could help him walk even faster than before.
However，some people are opposed to the application of robots.They argue that using robots massively could lead to fewer job opportunities.In some cases，robots will replace people’s position.In some factories， many employees get dismissed.
Personally，the advantages of robots outweigh the disadvantages.We should make use of robots properly.

On a bitterly cold January day， I saw Bobby in my fourth-grade classroom for the first time. He was wearing worn-out shirt and jeans， obviously too small. One of his shoes was missing a lace， flopping （移动） up and down when he walked. He looked so disgusting that nobody would treat him as a normal child.
Bobby’s behavior was strange， too. His normal tone of voice was a yell. He never made eye contact with anyone， and made his comments continuously during class.
Besides， Bobby’s academic skills were non-existent. He couldn’t read or write， not even the letters of the alphabet.
I thought Bobby should belong in a classroom that taught basic social skills. I checked his records and was shocked to learn that his IQ was normal. The school counselor （辅导顾问） told me that Bobby was a lot closer to normal than his mother was. He had been placed in Children’s Welfare Home for the first three years of his life before he was returned to his mother. They had moved to a different town at least once a year. Bobby’s intelligence was normal， so he would remain in my classroom.
I hated it but had to accept his being in my class. I had never taught someone like Bobby before. It was a struggle to even plan lessons for him. I took pride in being a good teacher， and I was disgusted with myself for not liking him and not wanting him in my class. One day， Bobby came into the classroom with his shirt torn and his nose bloodied. He had been jumped on by a group of my students. Bobby sat down and opened his book， pretending nothing had happened. Blood and tears dropped onto the pages. I sent Bobby to the nurse and scolded those students angrily. I yelled that they ought to be ashamed of themselves for not liking him just because he acted strangely. His being different was even more reason to treat him kindly.
注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右；
2.请按如下格式作答。
That incident changed how I felt about Bobby.
It was amazing to see the change in Bobby that resulted from the new clothes and extra attention.
参考范文：
That incident changed how I felt about Bobby. Witnessing a little boy in desperate need of care and help，I realized not only should a teacher teach academics but also meet the needs of the students！ I bought Bobby some nice clothes，with which he wouldn’t be teased any more. Thrilled and grateful，he marveled，“Thanks， Miss！” with glittering tears in his eyes like stars. A surge of being trusted wrapped me，and I offered to help him with his homework before school.
It was amazing to see the change in Bobby that resulted from the new clothes and extra attention. Coming out of his shell，he started making brief eye contact with me and performed properly，through which I found he really was a likeable child. I no longer dreaded going to work，and even looked forward to seeing him coming down the hallway in the morning. Afterwards，as my attitude toward him changed，so did the other students. They stopped picking on him and included him as a part of the group. Just give more attention and love. Every child deserves a chance to change.
