The world continues to inspire travel writers. Standout books for the year ahead are to please all types of
our readers.
A Search for Nearby Nature and Wilderness
World explorer Alastair Humphries spent a year examining every square metre of a 12-mile radius (半徑)
around his home in London and found wonder close to hand. A former Adventurer of the Year, Humphries has
cycled around the globe and rowed across the Atlantic Ocean. His latest book, though, is a celebration of slowing
things down and discovering a small wild world right on your doorstep. It’s also a cry to revitalize London’s
neglected natural places in urban areas and our right to wander in them. 12.99, Eye Books.
My Adventures in Travel and Publishing
Travel publisher, Hilary Bradt’s guidebook company celebrates its 50th anniversary this year. The first
Bradt Travel Guide was born in1974: Backpacking Along Ancient Ways Peru & Bolivia which included some of
the very first descriptions of the Inca Trail. Since then, Bradt has published many guidebooks about the farthest
parts of the planet — Mongolia and Madagascar among them. Pioneering backpacking travels before the concept
was widespread, he presents this book looking back at a lifetime of trials and stimulation in the wild. 20.00,
Bradt.

On a warm and damp June morning, Emily Bick winds through a field of knee-high corn. It feels like that
quiet, expectation-filled moment before a concert: Tech people are setting up microphones, connecting wires. The
star of this particular show is the microphone itself. Research assistants are attaching it to the corn stalks (莖), an
innovation that Bick named the Insect Eavesdropper (竊聽器).
Bick, an insect scientist, researches ways to better detect the agricultural pests that drive serious economic
losses worldwide. She says improving these methods could result in using pesticides more strategically — less
often, at just the right time. Corn rootworm, also known as the “billion-dollar bug,” feeds on corn roots, limiting
the plant’s nutrient supply and making stalks fall over. As a result, 20% of the crop is lost to the insect every year.
Worse still, climate change is bringing new challenges, such as the multiplication of insects in warmer
temperatures. In our global society, experts say rapid pest detection will be critical to food production.
Bick’s solution to the problem of pest detection is sound: Eavesdropping on the unique vibrations (震動)
that an insect makes when chewing on a plant to identify the insect itself. The Insect Eavesdropper uses a contact
microphone, an affordable device that musicians often use on instruments. A little disc sits on a solid object —
like corn — and captures the vibrations moving through it, registering each one with an electrical signal. “When
corn rootworm feeds on the roots, the vibration translates from the root system to the stalk,” Bick says. “That’s
where we’re picking it up. We’re using the plant as the musical instrument, as essentially the outside of a guitar.”
Bick and her colleagues’ findings aren’t published yet, but as of now, their detection method is anywhere
from 80% to 96% accurate. The team are still working on the data-processing pipeline, but hope they can get the
Insect Eavesdropper on the shelf in a couple of years. Their goal is to advance pest detection — and maybe
inspire people to listen to everything a little closer.
24．What is Bick’s purpose in working in the corn field
A．To prepare for a concert. B．To arrange for a study.
C．To make the show special. D．To innovate planting ways.
25．Why is corn rootworm named “billion-dollar bug”
A．Its nutrient is rich. B．It causes great loss.
C．Its number is limited. D．It brings huge profits.
26．What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 3 refer to
A．The corn. B．The signal. C．The system. D．The vibration.
27．Which of the following words can best describe the Insect Eavesdropper
A．Perfect. B．Inspiring. C．Promising. D．Purchasable.

Until now it has been impossible to peer into the human mind, but new biometric (生物計量的 ) and
machine learning tools are changing this. Assuming people approve of these technologies monitoring them,
researchers can collect real-time facial analysis and eye-movement data using webcams, and therefore recognize
subconscious facial-expressions when people are engaged with different urban scenes.
Our research group at Tufts University has conducted a number of facial analysis and eye-tracking studies,
using iMotions Online AFFDEX facial coding software to track 51 participants’ real-time visual attention and
facial expressions in response to images and videos of Memorial Drive in Cambridge. We captured similar images
of the same stretch of road with and without cars and compared our participants’ emotional reactions to both types
of images. The system records a person’s eye movements and facial expressions with a camera. Then the software
uses an algorithm (算法) to score whether a participant displayed positive, negative or neutral emotions during
each millisecond of the study based on subtle movements in their facial muscles.
In its results, although our participants expressed neutral emotions in response to the images 85 percent of
the time, participants spent on average 0.4 percent more time expressing positive emotions in response to
vehicleless images and videos. While seemingly a small difference, any measurable effect from a still image can
signal something worth considering. And after several follow-up researches, we did find that cars absorbed people
naturally, whereas people’s emotional responses are more negative while looking at them.
Scientists and urban planners globally are beginning to polish biometric tools to understand these kinds of
behavioral responses to urban and architectural elements. Natural elements like trees are less foreign to our brain
than car-related infrastructure like traffic lights, and accord better with our in-born preferences. Furthermore,
natural design elements make it easier for humans to relax and enjoy their surroundings as they reflect the natural
surroundings of our environment. Car-free spaces are important in community building. Some studies have taken
these biometric tools out of the lab, but more work is still needed to test these human behavioral responses in
real-world conditions.
28．How did the researchers reach the conclusion
A．By making an assumption. B．By using webcams.
C．By analyzing collected data. D．By using a coding software.
29．According to the research conducted by Tults University, ________.
A．a still image is worth more consideration
B．images without vehicles could thrill participants
C．most participants were neutral about the research
D．images with vehicles might well capture participants
30．What can be inferred from this passage
A．Biometric tools can improve people’s emotional states.
B．The research findings might help guide urban planning.
C．Happiness and the number of cars are positively related.
D．Human consciousness can be transformed by biometric tools.
31．What is the main idea of this passage
A．Biometrictools help decode human perception.
B．Biometrics suggests car-free cities in the future.
C．Biometrictools make for a better environment.
D．Biometrics promotes urban planning and building.

In a stimulating interview with the philosopher Daniel Dennett in Living on Earth, Dannet shared that
Charles Darwin and Alan Turing might make the same discovery. Darwin showed how you can get the
appearance of purpose and design out of blind processes of natural selection. And Turing said that any computable
problem can be computed by a machine without understanding.
The host then voiced a concern: as Al advances, machines will come to lord over us. Dennett acknowledges
there’s a takeover risk but claims it’s misunderstood. The risk is not that machines will become autonomous rulers
but that we will depend too much on machines.
The main issue with AI is not intelligence but autonomy. At the end of the day, even the smartest
computers are our tools, and their intentions are ours. Or, to the extent that we can speak of their intentions at all.
The intention of a self-driving car to avoid an obstacle, for example, is what it’s designed for.
Our growing dependence on technologies doesn’t mean we are losing our natural autonomy in quite this
sense. Our needs remain. But it is a loss of autonomy. Even auto mechanics these days rely on computers and, in
the era of self-driving cars, will any of us still know how to drive Think what would happen if we lost electricity
We’d be thrown back into the 19th century, as Dennett says. But things would be worse as we lack know-how that
made it possible for our ancestors to live well in the olden days.
The truth is, we’ve been technological since our dawn as a species. We first found ourselves in the
archaeological record where we saw a great exposition of tools, technologies, art-making and language. In a sense,
being human means being like a cyborg, which is a technological extension of our natural selves. This suggests
that at any time in our development, a large-scale breakdown in the technological system would spell not exactly
our doom, but our complete reorganization.
Perhaps what makes our current dilemma unprecedented (史無前例的) is the fact that we are so closely
networked. When the library of Alexandria burned down, books and knowledge were lost. But in a world where
libraries are replaced by their online versions, it isn’t unimaginable that every library could be sinply deleted.
What happens to us then
32．Which of the following statements might Dennet most likely agree with
A．AI might be overly relied on.
B．AI doesn’t have comprehension.
C．AI’s development is bounded.
D．AI’s evolution resembles natural selection.
33．Which of the following examples best matches the idea of “know-how” in paragraph 4
A．A scholar studies the theory of natural selection.
B．A nobleman hires servants to do all the housework.
C．A farmer builds a table by hand using traditional tools.
D．A worker operates a machine following preset instructions.
34．Why did the author mention libraries in paragraph 6
A．To show the technological stability.
B．To prove the technological safeguard.
C．To emphasize the technological weakness.
D．To illustrate the technological transformation.
35．What would be the best title for the passage
A．Is the Concern Artificial Intelligence or Autonomy
B．How will Technology Breakdown Change Our Lives
C．Will Artificial Autonomy Threaten Humanity’s Existence
D．How does the Human-Technology Relationship Develop

One of my bad habits is saying “busy” when people ask me how I’m doing. Sometimes it’s because I
actually am busy, but other times it’s because that’s what I think I’m supposed to say. That’s what important or
promoted people say. 36 So why are we so proud to talk about how busy we are all the time
In 2016, researchers conducted a study to figure it out. 37 And interestingly, these status
attributions (歸屬) are heavily influenced by our own beliefs. In other words, the more we believe that one has the
opportunity for success based on hard work, the more we tend to think that people who always skip leisure and
work are of higher standing.
That’s why we feel like we have to appear busy, and there’s a real perception that if someone is knee-deep
in meetings, emails, and stress, then they’re probably a big deal. 38 According to a recent study, one in
five highly engaged employees is at risk of burnout.
39 It sounds self-righteous (自以為是) and sets the wrong tone. Phrases like “I have limited
access to email” and “I’ll respond as soon as I get back” sound like you’re being held against your will from
working as opposed to making the most of your time off.
That’s why we recently launched the Out of Office Email Generator, a free tool you can use before your
next long weekend or trip. 40 Managers need to think twice about emailing their teams on the weekend
and talking about how busy they are, and so do leaders.
A．Actually, leading a busy life can be avoidable.
B．But working long hours doesn’t drive better results.
C．A person of high status feels tired when promoted.
D．Busy people are found to be those with high social rank.
E．You can share you won’t be checking the mailbox till you return.
F．This culture of busyness is making it hard to find work-life balance.
G．Personally, I’m going to stop saying “busy” when people ask me how I am.

Browse through any social-media feed, and before long a cute video will appear. The supply of these
41 clips, short parts of videos, is huge. On one social media platform there are 65 million videos tagged (貼
標簽) # cute. The demand is more 42 : those videos have been viewed more than 625 billion times.
Long dismissed as girlish and silly, cuteness has recently become a subject of serious 43 ,
inspiring scientific research and academic literature, named “Cute Studies”. A new exhibition in London also
examined the dominance of cute qualities in culture, bringing together art, games and toys. Cuteness “has
44 ”, says Claire Catterall, the organizer. “It has made its way into almost every element of our lives.”
What do humans perceive to be cute In the 1940s, Konrad Lorenz, an Austrian zoologist, found that
people are 45 to babies with big eyes and a small nose, as well as short arms, legs, because they bring
joy. So obsessed with these characteristics that cats and dogs may have been 46 to bring out those
same features. Cartoon characters have evolved as well. 47 , Mickey Mouse’s arms, legs and nose have
shrunk while his head and eyes have become larger.
It was exactly in the 20th century that cuteness dug in its 48 claw (爪). Walt Disney brought a
parade of wide-eyed creatures across the world. Japanese kawaii culture also went global. After the emergence of
mass production, cute toys became 49 attainable across the market. Sanrio, the company behind the
Hello Kitty brand, 50 this trend, generating $3.8 billion in annual sales by producing products on an
unmatched scale.
Then, with the Internet, cuteness became 51 on demand. People could share amusing content
of their children or favorite animals any time. In 2022, more than 90,000 videos of cats were uploaded to a major
social media platform every day.
Cuteness has real-world uses — Lovot, a wide-eyed companion robot, responds 52 when
hugged. Such an innovation may help relieve 53 among the elderly. Policymakers, too, might
employ this power to 54 people’s behaviour. Putting images on bins of sea turtles or dolphins
trapped in rubbish has been shown to reduce plastic waste. Mr. Kringelbach says that an appreciation for cute
things is a (n) 55 in itself, but it also “has the potential to change the world”. So why not use the
power of cuteness to create a better, more loving world
41．A．live B．casual C．adorable D．interactive
42．A．substantial B．urgent C．reasonable D．practical
43．A．commitment B．inquiry C．hazard D．competition

Peru is an underrated culinary powerhouse. Its long coastline, vast Andes mountains, and tropical rain
forests have given rise to its rich food and culinary culture. Beyond local flavors, Peruvian cuisine also blends
influences from Asia, Africa, and Europe. And the fusion of cooking styles has created 56
(incredible) delicious results.
A must-try dish from 57 world-renowned melting pot is lomo saltado — marinated (腌制的)
strips of steak stir-fry with soy sauce, chopped red onions, tomatoes, crispy French fries and the unmissable ají
amarillo chili pepper (黃辣椒), 58 (serve) with rice on the side. Very flavorful, yet not spicy, lomo
saltado never fails to impress 59 (dine) in Peru and beyond.
Lomo saltado is almost like a metaphor for modern-day culture: key ingredients from different corners of
the world 60 combine to create something new and characteristic — ají amarillo and potato from
Peru, beef from Spain. Spaniards are also believed 61 (introduce) rice to Peru in the early years of
the colony. The last key player in the recipe: China. Thousands of Cantonese 62 (immigrate) to Peru
in the mid-nineteenth century, introducing the wok, soy sauce and the concept of stir-frying. We can guess that
63 some point in the early twentieth century, a bold cook used his or her creativity to take the above foods
and stir fry 64 in a wok. Voila, a culinary superstar was born. And it is 65 a culinary
journey to South America should start with.

At one time children made May Day baskets to celebrate spring and enjoy the rewards of giving surprising
gifts to their beloved ones. When I was in perhaps the third grade, our class took on such an adventure. For several
days, we worked on creating paper baskets. We cut colorful stripes of construction paper and wove them together,
following our teacher, Miss Anderson. We cut and wove and glued. Then we decorated them with our crayons and
more cutting and gluing. Finally, we fitted paper handles onto the tops so that we could secretly hang our
creations on the doors of unsuspecting receivers: surely our mothers.
We were finished right on time. Miss Anderson brought armloads of flowers for us to use in stuffing our
prizes. Lilacs and tulips and al the colorful flowers of spring. We had to wait until the day was nearly over before
we were allowed to choose the flowers that were just right for our baskets. I chose the biggest, most beautiful
blossoms, allowing myself to be selfish for the sake of my mother. Then we fidgeted (煩躁) away what remained
of our day, waiting for the clock to tick down the minutes to our release.
Finally, mercifully, the bell rang! We threw on our coats, gathered our homework and our lunch boxes, tied
on our scarves and then, carefully, we cradled our offerings of love and off we ran to our individual homes! I was
so excited! I ran as fast as I could down the hill, across the street, up the block, heading home. I paused at the
corner of my house, to catch my breath and savor the moment. Then I glanced down to admire my offering one
last time before I hung it lovingly over the doorknob. Horrors! Shock, dread and depression! My flowers were
gone! Apparently, bouncing out on my mad dash home, all that was left was a sad, messed-up, wrinkled little
empty basket! I stood on the doorway and burst into mournful sobbing tears.

M: Sure thing. I grew up in New England, and I know a lot about this city. What brings you to Boston, anyway
W: I’ve always wanted to visit the Northeast. Plus, it’s a great reason to get away from work. What is New
England exactly
M: New England is the northeast region of the US. It comprises six states, all of which were among the first states
established by British settlers.
W: I see. So, what was Boston’s role then
M: It was one of the first trading ports between Europe and the new world. Then. Boston became an important
place for the fight for American independence.
W: Wow, you know a lot about this!
M: I love studying history. The port, the Freedom Trail, and Faneuil Hall all tell this history.
W: I do, too. Sounds like a plan!
M: But first, I’d walk through North End if I were you - you’ll love that neighborhood’s coffee shops.
W: Great! Where after
M: Then, you can join a walking tour at the port.
W: Awesome.
M: Also, the Celtics, Red Sox, and Bruins are our sports teams, if you want to catch a game.
W: Well, I’m pretty unfamiliar with those teams, but the historical tours sound great!

【原文】
In women’s fashion, there are few names more famous than Coco Chanel. I’ve followed in her footsteps
and admired her work since I was a child. This inspiration brought me to work for the Chanel company and give
suggestions on new looks and styles for the brand. Coco Chanel, the founder of the Chanel fashion house, was
born in France in the late 1800s. As a young daughter in a poor family, Coco suffered a lot. In her teenage years,
she began singing and performing at concert halls. But after meeting a wealthy man in the fashion industry, Coco
left this job and was introduced to a life full of art and leisure. After moving to Paris in 1908, she created the first
designs for her fashion label. Two years later, she opened her first hat shop, and the Chanel brand had begun.
These first designs are credited to have formed the modern fashion style for women that we have today. Before
this shift, women’s fashion was designed by men and featured many restricting and uncomfortable items of
clothing. From Chanel’s “little black dress” to its beautiful jewelry, Coco showed the world that fashion means
much more than just clothing. To Chanel, fashion represents artistic design and the bravery to be yourself. I’m
eager to carry on her dream in this company today, and I believe everyone who wears our brand will feel this
tradition.

【導語】本文是一篇應用文。文章主要講述了來年將出版的四本旅行書籍的簡介及售價。
21．細節理解題。由文章 My Adventures in Travel and Publishing 部分中“Since then, Bradt has published many
guidebooks about the farthest parts of the planet — Mongolia and Madagascar among them. Pioneering
backpacking travels before the concept was widespread, he presents this book looking back at a lifetime of trials
and stimulation in the wild. 20.00, Bradt. (自那以來，布拉德特出版了許多關于地球上最偏遠地區的指南
——其中包括蒙古和馬達加斯加。在背包旅行的概念廣泛流行之前，他就率先進行了這樣的旅行，并在這
本書中回顧了自己在野外一生的試煉與激勵。)”可知，Hilary Bradt 是背包旅行的先驅之一。故選 B。
22．細節理解題。由文章最后一段中“From the 1500s to the present day comes a memorable band of explorers
and adventurers, scientists and craftsmen, pleasure-seekers and literary drifters sharing their experiences and
asking themselves a question — why travel this way in the first place (從 16 世紀到現在，一群令人難忘的探
險家和冒險家、科學家和工匠、尋歡作樂者和文學流浪者分享了他們的經歷，并問自己一個問題——為什
么要以這種方式旅行？)”可知，《Writers Walk the World》收集了不同身份的人的經驗。故選 D。
23．細節理解題。由文章 A Search for Nearby Nature and Wilderness 部分中“His latest book, though, is a
celebration of slowing things down and discovering a small wild world right on your doorstep. It’s also a cry to
revitalize London’s neglected natural places in urban areas and our right to wander in them. (然而，他的最新著作
卻是在慶祝放慢腳步，發現你家門口的那個小小的野生世界。這本書也呼吁振興倫敦市區被忽視的自然場
所，以及我們在其中漫步的權利。)”可知，《A Search for Nearby Nature and Wilderness》這本書聚焦于城市
內的自然景觀。故選 A。

【導語】這是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了一種檢測農業害蟲的創新設備“昆蟲竊聽器”，解釋了其工作原
理和發展前景。
24．細節理解題。根據第一段“On a warm and damp June morning, Emily Bick winds through a field of
knee-high corn. It feels like that quiet, expectation-filled moment before a concert: Tech people are setting up
microphones, connecting wires. The star of this particular show is the microphone itself. Research assistants are
attaching it to the corn stalks (莖), an innovation that Bick named the Insect Eavesdropper (竊聽器).(6 月一個溫
暖潮濕的早晨，艾米麗·比克蜿蜒穿過一片及膝高的玉米地。這感覺就像音樂會前那種安靜、充滿期待的時
刻：技術人員正在安裝麥克風、連接電線。這個節目的主角是麥克風本身。研究助理正在將它附著在玉米
秸稈上，比克將這項創新命名為‘昆蟲竊聽器’)”以及第二段中“Bick, an insect scientist, researches ways to
better detect the agricultural pests that drive serious economic losses worldwide.(比克是一名昆蟲科學家，他研
究如何更好地檢測造成全球嚴重經濟損失的農業害蟲。) ”可知，比克在玉米地里工作的目的是為一項研究
做安排。故選 B。
25．細節理解題。根據第二段“Bick, an insect scientist, researches ways to better detect the agricultural pests that
drive serious economic losses worldwide.(比克是一名昆蟲科學家，他研究如何更好地檢測造成全球嚴重經濟
損失的農業害蟲)”以及“Corn rootworm, also known as the “billion-dollar bug,” feeds on corn roots, limiting the
plant’s nutrient supply and making stalks fall over. As a result, 20% of the crop is lost to the insect every year.(玉
米根蟲，也被稱為‘十億美元蟲’，以玉米根為食，限制了植物的營養供應，使秸稈倒下。結果，每年有 20%
的作物被昆蟲吞噬)”可知，玉米根蟲被命名為“十億美元蟲”因為它造成巨大損失。故選 B。
26．詞句猜測題。根據劃線詞上文“A little disc sits on a solid object — like corn — and captures the vibrations
moving through it, registering each one with an electrical signal. “When corn rootworm feeds on the roots, the
vibration translates from the root system to the stalk,” Bick says.(一個小圓盤放在一個固體物體上——比如玉
米——并捕捉穿過它的振動，用電信號記錄每一個振動。‘當玉米根蟲以根為食時，振動從根系統傳遞到莖，’
比克說)”以及后文“We’re using the plant as the musical instrument, as essentially the outside of a guitar.(我們把
植物當作樂器，就像吉他的外面一樣)”可知，比克主要通過玉米根蟲啃食根部的震動來發現這種蟲子，故
劃線詞 it 指代前文中的 the vibration“振動”，故選 D。
27．推理判斷題。根據最后一段“The team are still working on the data-processing pipeline, but hope they can
get the Insect Eavesdropper on the shelf in a couple of years. Their goal is to advance pest detection — and
maybe inspire people to listen to everything a little closer.(該團隊仍在研究數據處理管道，但希望他們能在幾
年內將昆蟲竊聽器上架。他們的目標是推進害蟲檢測——也許還能激勵人們更近距離地傾聽一切)”可知，
昆蟲竊聽器有潛力提升病蟲害監測，由此可知，Insect Eavesdropper“昆蟲竊聽器”很有前景。故選 C。
28．C 29．D 30．B 31．A
【導語】這是一篇說明文。主要介紹了新的生物計量和機器學習工具可以收集數據，幫助研究人員了解人
們對城市場景的潛意識反應，即解碼人類感知。
28．推理判斷題。根據第一段中“Assuming people approve of these technologies monitoring them, researchers
can collect real-time facial analysis and eye-movement data using webcams, and therefore recognize subconscious
facial-expressions when people are engaged with different urban scenes.(假設人們同意這些監控他們的技術，研
究人員可以使用網絡攝像頭收集實時面部分析和眼球運動數據，從而識別人們在不同城市場景中的潛意識
面部表情。)”以及第二段中“We captured similar images of the same stretch of road with and without cars and
compared our participants’ emotional reactions to both types of images. The system records a person’s eye
movements and facial expressions with a camera. Then the software uses an algorithm (算法) to score whether a
participant displayed positive, negative or neutral emotions during each millisecond of the study based on subtle
movements in their facial muscles.(我們拍攝了同一段道路上有和沒有汽車的相似圖像，并比較了參與者對這
兩種圖像的情緒反應。該系統通過攝像頭記錄一個人的眼球運動和面部表情。然后，該軟件使用一種算法
對某部分是否符合要求進行評分)”可知，研究人員是通過分析收集的數據來得出結論。故選 C 項。
29．細節理解題。根據第三段中“In its results, although our participants expressed neutral emotions in response
to the images 85 percent of the time, participants spent on average 0.4 percent more time expressing positive
emotions in response to vehicle-less images and videos. While seemingly a small difference, any measurable
effect from a still image can signal something worth considering. And after several follow-up researches, we did
find that cars absorbed people naturally, whereas people’s emotional responses are more negative while looking at
them.(結果顯示，盡管我們的參與者在 85%的時間里對圖像表達了中立的情緒，但參與者在對沒有車輛的
圖像和視頻表現出積極情緒的時間平均增加了 0.4%。雖然看起來差別很小，但靜態圖像中任何可測量的效
果都可以表明值得考慮的東西。在幾次后續研究之后，我們確實發現汽車很自然地吸引了人們，而人們在
看汽車時的情緒反應更消極。)”可推知，根據圖爾斯大學的研究，帶有車輛的圖像可能很好地吸引到參與
者，然而人們在看汽車時的情緒反應更消極。故選 D 項。
30．推理判斷題。根據最后一段中“Scientists and urban planners globally are beginning to polish biometric tools
to understand these kinds of behavioral responses to urban and architectural elements. Natural elements like trees
are less foreign to our brain than car-related infrastructure like traffic lights, and accord better with our in-born
preferences. Furthermore, natural design elements make it easier for humans to relax and enjoy their surroundings
as they reflect the natural surroundings of our environment.(全球的科學家和城市規劃者都開始完善生物識別
工具，以了解這些對城市和建筑元素的行為反應。與交通信號燈等與汽車相關的基礎設施相比，樹木等自
然元素對我們的大腦來說并不陌生，而且更符合我們天生的偏好。此外，自然的設計元素使人類更容易放
松和享受周圍的環境，因為它們反映了我們環境的自然環境。)”可知，從這篇文章中可以推斷出研究結果
可能有助于指導城市規劃。故選 B 項。
31．主旨大意題。根據文章第一段“Until now it has been impossible to peer into the human mind, but new
biometric (生物計量的) and machine learning tools are changing this. Assuming people approve of these
technologies monitoring them, researchers can collect real-time facial analysis and eye-movement data using
webcams, and therefore recognize subconscious facial-expressions when people are engaged with different urban
scenes.(到目前為止，窺視人類思維是不可能的，但新的生物識別技術和機器學習工具正在改變這一點。假
設人們同意這些監控他們的技術，研究人員可以使用網絡攝像頭收集實時面部分析和眼球運動數據，從而
識別人們在不同城市場景中的潛意識面部表情。)”以及下文內容可知，文章主要講述了新的生物計量和機
器學習工具可以收集數據，幫助研究人員了解人們對城市場景的潛意識反應，即解碼人類感知。故這篇文
章的主旨是生物識別工具有助于解碼人類感知。故選 A 項。
32．A 33．C 34．C 35．A
【導語】本文是一篇議論文，主要探討了 AI 和人類自主性的關系、人類對技術的依賴、人類的技術本質
以及當前網絡化社會面臨的特殊困境。
32．推理判斷題。根據第二段“Dennett acknowledges there’s a takeover risk but claims it’s misunderstood. The
risk is not that machines will become autonomous rulers but that we will depend too much on machines.(Dennett
承認存在被取代的風險，但他認為這種風險被誤解了。風險不在于機器會成為自主統治者，而在于我們會
過度依賴機器。)”可知，Dennet 最有可能同意的說法是人工智能可能會被過度依賴。故選 A。
33．推理判斷題。根據第四段“Think what would happen if we lost electricity We’d be thrown back into the 19th
century, as Dennett says. But things would be worse as we lack know-how that made it possible for our ancestors
to live well in the olden days.(想想如果我們斷電會發生什么？正如丹尼特所說，我們會被拋回 19 世紀。但
事情會變得更糟，因為我們缺乏使我們的祖先在過去的日子里生活得很好的技術。)”可知，“know-how”的
技術是使我們的祖先在過去的日子里生活得很好的技術，符合“know-how”的概念的是一位農民用傳統工具
手工制作一張桌子。故選 C。
34．推理判斷題。根據倒數第二段“Perhaps what makes our current dilemma unprecedented (史無前例的) is the
fact that we are so closely networked.(也許我們目前的困境之所以前所未有，是因為我們是如此緊密地聯系
在一起。)”和“But in a world where libraries are replaced by their online versions, it isn’t unimaginable that every
library could be sinply deleted.(但在一個圖書館被其在線版本所取代的世界里，想象一下，所有的圖書館都
可能被輕易刪除，這并不是不可想象的。)”可知，作者在第 6 段提到圖書館是為了強調技術上的弱點。故
選 C。
35．主旨大意題。通讀全文，尤其是第二段“The host then voiced a concern: as Al advances, machines will come
to lord over us.(主持人隨后表達了擔憂：隨著人工智能的發展，機器將主宰我們。)”和第三段“The main issue
with AI is not intelligence but autonomy.(人工智能的主要問題不是智能，而是自主性。)”可知，本文主要探
討了 AI 和人類自主性的關系、人類對技術的依賴、人類的技術本質以及當前網絡化社會面臨的特殊困境，
因此最好的題目是 A 選項“Is the Concern Artificial Intelligence or Autonomy (人們擔憂的是人工智能還是自
主性？)”。故選 A。
36．B 37．D 38．F 39．G 40．E
【導語】這是一篇說明文。文章解釋了為什么人們總是自豪地談論自己有多忙的原因。
36．由上文“One of my bad habits is saying “busy” when people ask me how I’m doing. Sometimes it’s because I
actually am busy, but other times it’s because that’s what I think I’m supposed to say. (我的一個壞習慣是，當人
們問我過得怎么樣時，我會說“很忙”。有時是因為我真的很忙，但有時是因為這是我應該說的)”可知作者
不管忙不忙，被問及時，總會很自然地說忙，再結合上文“That’s what important or promoted people say. (這
就是重要的或被提拔的人所說的)”可知作者認為忙是重要的或被提拔的人的標志，可見忙有一定好處，然
而下文“So why are we so proud to talk about how busy we are all the time (那么，為什么我們總是自豪地談論
我們有多忙呢？)”又對人們為什么自豪地說忙感到困惑，想要弄清其原由，說明該空應該與上文形成轉折，
表明忙并不是好東西，才能引出下文的問題，B 選項“但是長時間工作并不能帶來更好的結果。”切合語境。
故選 B 項。
37．下文“In other words, the more we believe that one has the opportunity for success based on hard work, the
more we tend to think that people who always skip leisure and work are of higher standing. (換言之，我們越是相
信一個人有機會在努力工作的基礎上獲得成功，我們就越傾向于認為那些總是跳過休閑和工作的人地位更
高)”主要講越忙的人社會地位越高，該空內容應與段落中心相關，D 選項“忙碌的人往往是那些社會地位高
的人。”切合語境。故選 D 項。
38．由下文“According to a recent study, one in five highly engaged employees is at risk of burnout. (根據最近的
一項研究，五分之一的高度敬業的員工有倦怠的風險。)”可知，該空應該講明忙碌的缺點，才能引出下文

工作與生活的平衡。”切合語境。故選 F 項。
39．由第一段“One of my bad habits is saying “busy” when people ask me how I’m doing. (我的一個壞習慣是，
當人們問我過得怎么樣時，我會說“很忙”)”和“So why are we so proud to talk about how busy we are all the
time (那么，為什么我們總是自豪地談論我們有多忙呢？)”可知人們（包括作者）喜歡說忙，空后下文“It
sounds self-righteous (自以為是) and sets the wrong tone. Phrases like “I have limited access to email” and “I’ll
respond as soon as I get back” sound like you’re being held against your will from working as opposed to making
the most of your time off. (這聽起來很自以為是，而且定錯了基調。像“我的電子郵件訪問權限有限”和“我一
回來就會回復”這樣的短語聽起來像是你被強行禁止工作，而不是充分利用休息時間。)”表明作者贊成不再
忙碌工作，而是應充分利用休息時間，該空內容應與作者不再贊成忙碌的內容相關，與上文形成轉折，G
選項“就我個人而言，當人們問我怎么樣時，我不會再說‘忙’了。”切合語境。故選 G 項。
40．由上文講作者不再贊成忙碌和空前“That’s why we recently launched the Out of Office Email Generator, a
free tool you can use before your next long weekend or trip. (這就是為什么我們最近推出了外出電子郵件生成
器，這是一個免費工具，您可以在下一個長周末或旅行前使用)”可知，作者推薦外出電子郵件生成器是希
望人們從工作中脫身，好好利用休閑時間，該空應承接上文講休閑時如何不再忙碌，E 選項“你可以分享你
回來之前不會查看郵箱。”切合語境。故選 E 項。

【導語】本文是一篇說明文，主要講的是秘魯的美食文化，特別是其代表菜 Lomo Saltado 的起源、特色及
文化寓意。
56．考查副詞。句意：各種烹飪風格的融合創造了令人難以置信的美味。空格處用副詞 incredibly 作狀語
修飾形容詞 delicious，incredibly 意為“難以置信地”。故填 incredibly。
57．考查冠詞。句意：來自世界著名大熔爐的一道必嘗的佳肴便是 lomo saltado——這是用醬油腌制的牛排
條，配以切碎的紅洋蔥、番茄、香脆的薯條以及不可或缺的黃燈籠椒，一同快炒而成，旁邊還配有米飯。
特指秘魯這個世界著名的大熔爐，用定冠詞 the，故填 the。
58．考查非謂語動詞。句意：來自世界著名大熔爐的一道必嘗的佳肴便是 lomo saltado——這是用醬油腌制
的牛排條，配以切碎的紅洋蔥、番茄、香脆的薯條以及不可或缺的黃燈籠椒，一同快炒而成，旁邊還配有
米飯。句中謂語是 is，空格處用非謂語動詞，lomo saltado 和 serve 之間是邏輯動賓關系，因此空格處用過
去分詞表被動，故填 served。
59．考查名詞。句意：lomo saltado 風味濃郁卻不辣，總能給秘魯及世界各地的食客留下深刻印象。空格處
用名詞作賓語，句子表示“lomo saltado 風味濃郁卻不辣，總能給秘魯及世界各地的食客留下深刻印象”，空
格處意為“食客”，是 diner，不止一個，要用復數，故填 diners。
60．考查定語從句。句意：Lomo saltado 幾乎是現代文化的一個隱喻：它匯集了來自世界各地的關鍵食材，
創造出一種新穎而獨特的美味——有秘魯的黃辣椒和土豆，還有西班牙的牛肉。空格處引導的是限制性定
語從句，先行詞 key ingredients 指物，關系詞替代先行詞在從句中作主語，空格處用關系代詞 that/which，
故填 that/which。
61．考查不定式的完成式。句意：西班牙人也被認為在秘魯殖民地的早期將大米引入了秘魯。sb. be believed
to do sth.是固定短語，意為“某人被認為做某事”，西班牙人已經將大米引入了秘魯，動作“引入”先于“認為”
發生，因此空格處用不定式的完成式 to have done，故填 to have introduced。
62．考查時態。句意：19 世紀中葉，成千上萬的廣東人移民到秘魯，帶來了炒鍋、醬油和炒菜的概念。由
in the mid-nineteenth century 可知，句子時態是一般過去時，空格處用過去式，故填 immigrated。
63．考查介詞。句意：我們可以猜測，在 20 世紀初的某個時候，一位大膽的廚師發揮了他或她的創造力，
把上面的食物放在鍋里翻炒。at some point 是固定短語，意為“在某個時間點”，因此空格處用 at，故填 at。
64．考查代詞。句意：我們可以猜測，在 20 世紀初的某個時候，一位大膽的廚師發揮了他或她的創造力，
把上面的食物放在鍋里翻炒。空格處用 them 指代前面的 foods，故填 them。
65．考查表語從句。句意：這是南美美食之旅的開始。空格處引導的是表語從句，從句中缺少賓語，句子

66．Dear Ben,
I was surprised to hear that you used AI to complete your homework and were praised by your teacher.
While it might seem like an easy way to get good results, using AI in this way is not right. Learning is about
understanding and growing, not just getting good grades. Relying on AI can prevent you from developing your
own skills and thinking independently.
I suggest you talk to your teacher and apologize. Honesty is always the best policy, and your teacher will
appreciate your courage to admit your mistake. Remember, true success comes from hard work and integrity.
Wishing you all the best!
Yours,
Li Hua

67．范文
By and by, my mom came to the door to discover the source of the sorrow. As she let me in and relieved
me of my school things, I tried to relate my horrible dilemma and the depth of my sadness. Mom listened
attentively, and her comforting presence brought a glimmer of hope to my disappointed heart. Having wiped my
tears tenderly, she gave me the scissors fetched from the kitchen and suggested I find some replacement flowers
from our garden. This time, I chose smaller and more resilient flowers, carefully arranging them inside the basket.
Seeing each petal radiating the purest colors of spring, I felt my enthusiasm began to return.
Soon, my newly-decorated basket was ready to be offered again. With the revived basket cradled in my
arms, I embarked on a second journey towards home. Awkwardly, I placed the paper handle over the knob,
knocked hesitantly, and made an embarrassed retreat. Mom slowly came and answered the door. Oh! She was SO
surprised! I stepped out of my hiding place. “Well, Mary!” she exclaimed! “Look what someone left here! Aren’t
they lovely! “ With her excitement all my worries vanished. My pride of giving barely allowed me to maintain the
surprise but what mattered was to show mom she was remembered on this special day.
