heard cheerful shouts. Dominic was adjusting his bike chain, while two other boys stood nearby. " Finally! We were

The four kids rode together along the bike trail, sharing stories and laughter. Spiro told them about the wild

A篇
应用文—人与自然 介绍了位于新南威尔士州北岸麦夸里港的考拉医院
21.A 细节理解题。选项 A：根据文中 “InteractiveExhibits” 部分的描述 “touchkoalafur(througheducational
displays)”，明确提到游客可以通过教育展示触摸考拉皮毛，与选项 A 完全一致。 选项 B：文中未提及游客可以
直接喂食考拉桉树叶子，属于无中生有。选项 C：“GuidedTours” 部分提到可以参观诊所中科拉接受护理和治疗的
场景，但未提到 “观看现场手术（livesurgeries）”，属于过度推断。选项 D：文中提到的纪念品是 “koala-themed
（考拉主题）”，而非 “kangaroo-shaped（袋鼠形状）”，与原文不符。
22.B细节理解题。成人票价：$20/人，一对夫妇（2人）费用为 $20×2=$40。儿童票价：5-15 岁$10/人，7
岁孩子费用为 $10。3 岁儿童免费（Childrenunder5:Free）。总费用：$40+$10=$50，对应选项 B。
23.D 推断题。 全文以生动的语言介绍考拉医院的位置、活动、票价，旨在吸引游客参观，符合 “推广野生
动物旅游的旅游手册（travelbrochure）” 的功能。
B篇
记叙文—人与自我 翻译李清照的作品颠覆了我的写作生涯
24. C 细节理解题。根据文章第二段 “I was an undergraduate at Wellesley when a fellow student was putting
together an anthology (选集) of translations from around the world and sent out a call for submissions. I was intrigued by
theprojectanddecidedtosubmitatranslation.” 可知，作者是因为同学的一个翻译选集项目，从而偶然有了翻译的想
法。所以答案是C，是通过同学的项目接触到翻译这个想法的。
25. D 细节理解题。从第二段 “Among many Chinese writers, Li Qingzhao immediately came to mind, as a writer
knownwidelybythepublicinChinabutlittleknownortranslatedinAmerica.” 可知，作者选择翻译李清照的诗是因为
李清照在中国广为人知，但在美国鲜为人知且很少被翻译，作者想让更多人了解她和她的作品。A 选项 “重新定义
自己的写作风格” 是翻译带来的结果，并非选择翻译的原因；C选项 “探索女性作家面临的挑战” 在文中未提及；
B选项 “获得编辑和教授的认可” 也不是选择翻译的原因。所以答案是 D。
26.C 主旨大意题。文章第三段主要讲述了作者为选集翻译的李清照的第一首词《一剪梅》，包括词的内容和
情感等，重点在于介绍作者翻译的第一部作品。A 选项 “突出李清照的写作风格” 并非该段主要内容；B 选项 “描
述翻译一首词的过程” 在该段未体现；D选项 “将李清照的风格与艾米莉・狄金森的风格进行比较” 只是提及了一
点，不是主要内容。所以答案是 C。
27. D 词义猜测题。根据文章最后一段 “Her work offered me mentorship and guidance as a young woman writer
workinginthe21stcentury”，“mentorship” 与 “guidance（指导）” 并列，意思应该相近，所以选择D项的instruction。
C篇
科技报道—人与社会 一幅由AI机器人创作的肖像画在拍卖会上以高价成交，并介绍了相关背景和创作过程，
引发对新兴技术的讨论和思考。
28. C 细节理解题。根据第一段”A portrait of the British mathematician Alan Turing sold at auction(拍卖会) for
nearly$1.1milliononThursday”和第三段”...initiallywasestimatedtosellfor$120,000to$180,000”,可知肖像画成交价
是110万美元，预估价是12到18万美元，因此画比预期更高价售卖，C选项正确。A选项肖像画的创作者是AI
机器人，而非画廊老板(gallerist);B选项根据第二段”Therobotisdressedlikeawomanwithabobhaircutandisreferred
toasAi-DainhonorofAdaLovelace”可知是机器人的名字而非肖像画致敬Ada;D选项文中并未提及此画是机器人创
作的第一个艺术品。
29. A 细节理解题。根据第五段”Ai-Da's programming interpreted a photograph of Turing and produced 15
individual paintings based on different parts of his face. The robot chose three of the portraits, alongside a painting of
3/8
{#{QQABaQClwwgwkgRACY7aBQXqCUiQkIETJYoGwQCcKARiCBFABCA=}#}Turing’sBombemachine,thenameforthecodebreakingdevicehebuilt,whichappearsinthebackground.”(Ai-Da用算法
程序对一张图灵(Turing)的照片进行解析后，根据其面部不同部位创作了15幅独立画作。该机器人从这其中选择了
三幅，同时配以一幅机器Bombe的图片作为背景，这个机器是图灵发明的密码破解器。）可知答案选A。B选项“直
接复制图灵肖像画”与原文内容相悖；C选项“将机器Bombe放画面中间”与原文相悖；D选项“解析了图灵15张不
同照片”与原文相悖。
30. B细节理解题。根据最后一段”The key value of my work is its potentialto begin conversationaboutemerging
technologies”可知，Ai-Da认为肖像画的意义在于引发对新型技术的讨论，故答案选B。
31. D 标题归纳题。通读全文，尤其是第一段”AportraitoftheBritishmathematicianAlanTuringsoldatauction(拍
卖会) for nearly $1.1 million on Thursday, a surprisingly large sum for a painting whose creator wasn't an artist in the
traditionalsense,butahuman-likerobotpoweredbyartificialintelligence”（一幅英国数学家艾伦·图灵的肖像画在拍卖
会上以近110万美元成交。这幅作品的创作者并非传统意义上的艺术家，而是一个由人工智能驱动、具有人类特征
的机器人，如此高昂的成交价令人意外）可知，D选项AnAI-createdportraitsellsforahighprice(AI创作肖像画卖出
高价）适合文章标题。
D篇
说明文—人与社会 考古学家米森博士研究指出人类基本语言约形成于 160 万年前，比此前认为的早八倍，
并阐述了语言发展因素及其对人类进化的关键作用。
32．C细节理解题。第二段提到米森（Mithen）认为基本语言约在160万年前形成（“DrStevenMithen...suggested
thatbasiclanguagewasformedaround1.6millionyearsago” ），而进化专家之前认为人类语言约在20万年前开始
（“Expertsinevolutionpreviouslybelievedthatspokenhumanlanguagebeganaround200,000yearsago” ）。两者的时
间差为(1600000-200000=1400000)（140万）年，所以米森认为语言开始的时间比进化专家认为的早约140万年，
答案选C。
33．D推理判断题。根据第四段“Hesaysourbrainquicklyincreasedinsizejustover1.5millionyearsago.This
increasechangedthestructureofourbrain.Anareacalledthefrontallobe（额叶）developed.Thisisthepartofthebrain
thatproduceslanguage.” 可知，大脑的结构发生了变化，额叶发展了，而额叶是产生语言的部分。这意味着大脑结
构的变化使语言发展成为可能，D选项正确。A选项文中未提及大脑变大是因为语言使用；B选项与原文语言对人
类进化有重要作用相悖；C选项文中未表明声道进化导致大脑扩张。
34．A 推理判断题。第三段中“Mithenrecognizesthatlanguageisacomprehensivebrain,body,socialandcultural
phenomenonthatrequiresaknowledgeofsuchsubjectsaslinguistics,psychology,neuroscience,andgenetics,eachwithits
owndata,theories,methodsandterminologies(术语).” 表明米森认识到语言是一种涉及大脑、身体、社会和文化的综
合现象，需要语言学、心理学、神经科学和遗传学等多学科知识，说明语言是一个涉及多个方面的复杂现象，A选
项正确。B选项文中未提及基因在早期人类交流中起更重要作用；C选项文中没有关于早期人类声道和现代猿类声
道比较的内容；D选项与文中“theycouldthinkofplanandfutureactions,andtheycouldpassonknowledge” 语言有助
于知识传递相悖。
35．B观点态度题。第二段“Hesaidtheabilitytospeakhelpedevolution.”以及第五段“Mithensaidspeechmadeit
convenientforhumanstocommunicatearoundtheworld.Itmeanthumanscoulddothreeimportantthings.Theycould
thinkofplanandfutureactions,andtheycouldpassonknowledge.Mithensaidlanguagechangedthehumanstory
profoundly.” 等内容可知，米森认为语言能力对进化有帮助，语言深刻地改变了人类的发展历程，所以他对语言对
人类进化的影响持积极态度，答案选B（Positive 积极的） ；A选项Indifferent（冷漠的）、C选项Negative（消
极的） 、D选项Neutral（中立的）均不符合文意。
4/8
{#{QQABaQClwwgwkgRACY7aBQXqCUiQkIETJYoGwQCcKARiCBFABCA=}#}七选五
本文提供如何帮孩子防范网络风险的建议。
36. C 根据空格后”However, taking some active steps to educate kids, set boundaries and monitor content can go a long
way.”(然而，采取一些积极措施去教育孩子、设定使用边界并监督内容会很有帮助)，C选项“家长不能控制一切”
与本句构成转折关系，符合题意，故选C。
37. D 根据空格前”Discussing some sensitive problems can feel uncomfortable”和空格后”... suggests asking a child
questionslike...”,D选项“趁早和孩子共同讨论问题解决”，符合题意。
38. B 本空为小标题，参照其他小标题句式，为祈使句，根据本段”..explainingtokidsthattheycanalwayscometoyou
withissuestheyarehaving””...I’malwaysheretoprotectyouandwillalwaysbeonyourside...”,B选项“使自己成为孩子
的安全港湾”符合题意。
39. F 根据本段小标题”playalongsideyourchild”,E选项”Rollupyoursleevesandbreakoutyourthumbsforane-game
night”(撸起袖子，动动手指，来个电子游戏之夜）符合题意。
40. G 根据本段”Working ona safetyplantogether canempower kidstospeakupforthemselves andcome toyou”(和孩
子一起制定安全计划，能让他们学会为自己发声，也更愿意向你求助)和空格前”Exploring these tools and settings
togetherandpracticingwhatthechildshoulddocanhelp.”(与孩子一起熟悉这些工具和设置，并练习应对方法，会很有
帮助),可知G选项Thatway,ifasituationeverarises,they’llfeelempowered,notpanicked(这样一来，即使遇到突发情
况，孩子也能沉着应对，而不是惊慌失措)符合题意，故选G。
完形填空
记叙文—人与自我 本文讲述 Alex 克服资金短缺、技术难题等挑战，坚持开发应用程序，最终成功连接艺术
家与顾客的故事，强调坚持与努力的重要性。
41.B.funds解析：根据后文 “workinglonghourstosaveeverypenny”（长时间工作攒钱）可知，Alex 一开始面临的
是资金短缺问题。其他选项 “时间（time）、技能（skills）、帮助（help）” 均与攒钱开发应用的语境不符。
42.Apromote解析：“promotetheideatoinvestors” 意为 “向投资者推广想法”，是商业场景中的常见搭配。“explain
（解释）” 和 “tel（l 告诉）” 仅表示信息传递，未体现 “说服投资” 的目的；“show（展示）” 侧重呈现，不如 “promote”
贴切。
43.C.rejections解析：由 “manythoughtinvesting...unproven”（许多人认为投资该概念未经证实）可知，投资者持否
定态度，因此是 “遭到拒绝”。approval（支持）、support（认可）与原文矛盾；opportunities（机会）不符合语境。
44.A.risky解析：“unproven”（未经证实的）与 “冒险的（risky）” 并列，说明投资该想法的不确定性。creative（有
创意的）、advanced（先进的）为褒义，与 “unproven” 的负面评价不符；abstract（抽象的）侧重概念模糊，而非
投资风险，故排除。
45.D.refused解析：“Despitethefailures”（尽管失败）表明转折关系，即 Alex“拒绝放弃”。tended（倾向于）、chose
（选择）、decided（决定）均无法体现 “坚持” 的语义，排除。
46.B.multiple解析：“part-timejobs” 用 “multiple” 修饰，表示他通过多份兼职工作攒钱，与 “workinglonghours”
（长时间工作）呼应。“flexible（灵活的）”“challenging（有挑战性的）”“convenient（方便的）” 均未体现 “攒钱的
迫切性”。
47.C.basic解析：开发应用的初期阶段应先构建 “basicversion（基础版本）”，后文 “testmodel（测试模型）” 也
印证了这是初步成果。“perfect（完美的）” 不符合开发逻辑；“revised（修订的）”“updated（更新的）” 需基于已
有版本。
48.D.technical解析：“Theappcrashed”（应用崩溃）和 “user-interface...unfriendly”（用户界面不友好）均属于 “技
术（technical）” 问题。financial（财务的）、social（社会的）、environmental（环境的）与后文描述无关。
5/8
{#{QQABaQClwwgwkgRACY7aBQXqCUiQkIETJYoGwQCcKARiCBFABCA=}#}49.A.frequently解析：“farfromuser-friendly”（极不友好）暗示问题严重，因此应用 “频繁（frequently）” 崩溃。
suddenly（突然地）、occasionally（偶尔）、rarely（很少）均无法体现问题的持续性和严重性。
50.B.learning解析：“learningnewprogrammingskills” 表示 “学习新编程技能”，与 “studyingcode” 并列，符合努
力解决问题的语境。
51.A.appealingto.appealtosb.forhelp” 是固定搭配，意为 “向…… 求助”。文中 “向在线社区求助” 更符合语义，
强调主动寻求外部支持；而 “relyingon（依赖）”“turningout（结果是）”“applyingto（申请）” 均不恰当。
52.B.users 解析：“potentialusers（潜在用户）” 提供反馈符合产品开发逻辑。partners（合作伙伴）、employees（员
工）、bosses（老板）均与 “获取用户体验反馈” 无关。
53.D.launch 解析：“softlaunch” 为固定短语，意为 “软发布（小规模试运营）”，符合 “app 准备就绪” 的语境。
introduction（介绍）、trial（试验）、demonstration（演示）
54.D.popularity解析：“gainpopularity” 意为 “逐渐流行”，与 “Moreandmore...joinedtheplatform”（越来越多人加
入平台）对应。profit（利润）、access（访问）、confidence（信心）均不如 “流行度” 直接体现用户增长。
55.C.artists 解析：首句提到应用目标是 “connectlocalartistswithcustomers”（连接本地艺术家和客户），因此 “artists
（艺术家）” 与 “customers（客户）” 并列，呼应主题。companies（公司）、members（成员）、traders（商人）
均偏离核心用户群体。
语法填空：
本文是一篇说明文，介绍中国首艘国产大型邮轮 “爱达・魔都号” 的相关信息.
56.domestically考查副词。“built”是动词，需要用副词修饰，“domestic”的副词形式是“domestically”，表示“在国内
地，国产地”。
57.measuring 考查非谓语动词。“measure”表示“测量，量起来”时是不及物动词，与主语之间是主动关系，measuring
是后置定语修饰主语，所以用现在分词“measuring”。
58.in 考查介词。“inlength”是固定短语，意为“在长度方面，长度为”。
59.which考查非限制性定语从句。先行词是前面整个句子“This“behemothofthesea"...canaccommodate5246
passengers”，关系词在从句中作主语，所以用“which”引导。
60.engineering 考查名词作定于。“engineeringprinciples”表示“工程原理”,“engineering”在这里作定语修饰“principles”。
61.precision 考查名词。“of”是介词，后面接名词，“precise”的名词形式是“precision”，意为“精确，精密”。
62.controlled 考查非谓语动词。“withamarginoferrorfor25millionparts”是介词短语，“(control)within20millimeters”
是宾语补足语，“parts”与“control”之间是被动关系，即“零件被控制”，所以用过去分词“controlled”。
63.it 考查代词。“makeit+adj.+forsb.todosth.”结构中，“it”作形式宾语，真正的宾语是后面的“forpassengersto
havehigh-speedandsecureinternetaccess”。
64.hasdriven 考查时态。“SinceitsmaidenvoyageonNewYear'sDay2024”是时间状语，“since+过去的时间点”是现
在完成时的标志，句子主语“it”是第三人称单数，所以用“hasdriven”。
65.a 考查冠词。“amajorplayer”表示“一个主要参与者”，“major”是以辅音音素开头，用不定冠词a.
