When Zhou Longshan started filming birds 10 years ago at Baiyangdian Lake, a major wetland in northern China, he just wanted to record his favorite species—egrets. Then, things snowballed. In the following years, the teacher became a bird-watcher, a volunteer ranger at the lake, a photographer documenting over 110 bird species and an educator popularizing bird-related information among students. “Sharing bird-protection knowledge with children can make them feel the beauty of their hometown and the importance of birds, and help them cultivate the habit of protecting birds from an early age,” he says.
Over time, Zhou’s interest in birds continued to grow. In 2021, he was appointed as a bird observer by the natural resources bureau (自然資源局) of Anxin county, responsible for conducting regular patrols (巡邏) and popularizing bird-related knowledge. To monitor birds, Zhou would ride a bike to Baiyangdian almost every day before dawn. whatever the weather. He would record the birds appearing at the lake, along with their locations, where they fed and when they migrated, thus providing reference data for staff members of the natural resources bureau of Anxin county.
Although Zhou takes delight in the role, there are still many challenges. Sometimes, he has to navigate earth embankments on his bike. One summer day in 2021, he fell into a ditch with water more than a meter deep, resulting in water damage to his cellphone.
However, these difficult episodes have not undermined Zhou’s love of birds. Over the years, he has taken more than 100,000 pictures of the birds at Baiyangdian. During his spare time, he reads books on China’s birds, talks with other enthusiasts and university professors, and updates his WeChat official account to introduce Baiyangdian to a wider audience.
These days, Zhou’s schedule is growing busier. In addition to his regular patrols near the lake, he is sometimes invited to local schools to give lectures, keeping students informed about birds and how to protect them. Zhou will retire next month. “I will continue patrolling the lake and photographing the birds to contribute to the protection of birds in my hometown,” he says.
24. Why did Zhou start taking photos of birds at first
A. To share bird-protection knowledge with children.
B. To cultivate the habit of protecting birds.
C. To keep track of his favorite species.
D. To become a volunteer ranger at the lake.
25. What did Zhou do to track birds
A. He rode a bike to Baiyangdian every day before dawn.
B. He went to Baiyangdian in all weathers.
C. He recorded all the birds along with their locations.
D. He provided reference data for natural resources bureau.

C. He is invited to local schools to give lectures every day.

Stonehenge is a very famous stone circle located in southern England. For centuries, historians have been extremely confused by it. On Wednesday, researchers brought out new and unexpected information about the six-ton Altar Stone at Stonehenge.
For a long time, people believed that the Altar Stone, which lies in the middle of the well-known circle, came from Wales. However, new research shows that it actually came from Scotland, which is hundreds of miles away. This discovery raises new questions about how people transported the stone about 5,000 years ago. According to a study published in the journal Nature on Wednesday, the Altar Stone probably came from the Orcadian Basin in Scotland, at least 466 miles from Stonehenge.
Chris Kirkland, one of the experts, said this discovery of where the Altar Stone came from showed there was a high level of cooperation from local people during the Neolithic period. Moving such a huge stone from Scotland to southern England by land would have been extremely challenging. So, it’s likely they used a shipping route along the British coast.
Stonehenge is mainly made up of two kinds of stones: sarsen (砂巖) and bluestone. The large sarsen stones mostly came from an area about 16 miles north of the monument. The Altar Stone is considered a bluestone. Studies in the past have shown that most of Stonehenge’s bluestones came from Wales. To find out where the Altar Stone came from, geologists examined its chemical characteristics and analyzed the minerals in the rock. They found that the Altar Stone didn’t match the geology of Welsh rocks.
“While we can now say that this iconic rock is Scottish and not Welsh, the research will still very much be on to pin down where exactly in the north-east of Scotland the Altar Stone came from,” study co-author and Aberystwyth University professor Richard Bevins said.
English Heritage, the organization that looks after Stonehenge, called this an exciting discovery. They said in a social media post that the more we learn about Stonehenge, the more questions we get. The purpose of Stonehenge is still a puzzle. Some people think it was built for astronomical reasons, while others think it was related to human sacrifice (祭祀).
28. What is the second paragraph mainly about
A. The location of the Altar Stone.
B. The reason for building the Stonehenge.
C. The method of transporting the Altar Stone.
D. The discovery of the Altar Stone’s true origin.
29. What played a key part in the move of the stone
A. Teamwork. B. Superpower. C. Leadership. D. Creativity.
30. What does the underlined part “pin down” most probably mean
A. Find out. B. Look down. C. Take on. D. Set off.
31. What can we infer about the purpose of the Stonehenge
A. People think it a mystery forever.
B. People hold different views on it.
C. People will bring it to light soon.
D. People mostly consider it as a kind of sacrifice.

A surprisingly efficient and powerful Chinese AI model has taken the technology industry by storm. It’s called DeepSeek R1, which makes Wall Street nervous. The new AI model was developed by DeepSeek, a company that was born in 2023. R1 can nearly match the capabilities of its far more famous competitors, including OpenAI’s GPT-4, Meta’s Llama and Google’s Gemini—but it costs much less. The company spent just $5.6 million powering its base AI model, compared with the hundreds of millions of dollars American companies spend.
But R1 gained significant attention this week when the company revealed its shockingly low cost of operation. And it is open-source, which means other companies can test and build upon the model to improve it. The DeepSeek app has been downloaded nearly 2 million times.
AI development needs a lot of power and money. Meta said it would spend $65 billion this year on AI development. Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, said the AI industry would need even more dollars in investment to support the development of high-in-demand chips (芯片).
Andreessen, who set up Andreessen Horowitz, calls DeepSeek one of the most amazing and impressive achievements that he has ever seen in a post on the Internet. If that potentially world-changing power can be achieved at a significantly reduced cost, it will open up new possibilities and threats to the planet.
Although the cost-saving achievement may be significant, the R1 model hasn’t yet proven it can deal with some of the extremely ambitious (耗資的) AI capabilities for industries that for now still require huge and large amounts of investment.
32. Which makes DeepSeek R1 amazing
A. Its developers. B. Its latest chips.
C. Its cost-effectiveness. D. Its application fields.
33. What is Andreessen’s attitude on capabilities of DeepSeek R1
A. Positive. B. Uninterested. C. Doubtful. D. Negative.
34. What can be inferred about the RI model
A. It reaches perfection. B. It is dangerous for humans.
C. Its cost can’t go down any more. D. It still has technology bottle-neck.
35. Which is the best title for the text
A. DeepSeek R1’s Limiting Factors B. AI’s High-cost Problem
C. DeepSeek R1: Low-cost Wonder D. AI Competitors: A Big Race

After my family got comfortably settled in Hotel Ramada in Bangkok, we started exploring the city. After endless hours of shopping, it was finally time to go back.
This was when the trouble started. We forgot there are two Ramada hotels in the opposite directions. Absolutely unaware of this, we started searching for the way back. Google maps suggested us the shortest route, which was just 20 minutes away by walk. 36
Bangkok felt different after sunset. Walking along the heavily-crowded roads with the dark-red sky felt beautiful. Lost in our talk, we didn’t realize that we passed onto the quieter part of the town.
37 It was closed for redecoration. Unluckily, nobody around us then spoke English. Worse still, we stepped in a local tuktuk (三輪車), which took us to an unknown area for an enormous pay. We had no clue where we were, our mobile phones nearly out of power.
38 He was a taxi driver. Recounting the day’s events proved to be a great conversation starter. We ended up talking through the way. He was so kind as to offer to drive us around for the rest of our stay. 39 For the next four days, from floating markets to the temples of Wat Pho, our trip wouldn’t have been so trouble-free without him.
Sometimes when things don’t go according to plan, I think about the stranger we met on the streets and how a tiny mistake on our part led to unexpected results. 40
A. That was when our hero arrived.
B. Our thankfulness was beyond description
C. We reached a completely different Hotel Ramada
D. We set off into the city with little research on transport.
E. We decided not to waste our money but our time instead.
F. He then reminded us that our hotel was just a few blocks away.
G. The trip rings as a reminder that every cloud has a silver lining.

They were both friends and competitors. They had similar taste in music, and had similar dressing styles. They had both devoted themselves to preparing for the upcoming contest.

She knew that this competition wasn’t just about personal success; it was also about upholding her school’s honor. “Grace, you’re incredible!” Grace’s dance instructor, Mrs. Anderson, often praised her. “Your hard work will pay off.”
Ellen had been practicing hard for this competition as well. Her love for dance was her driving force. After school, she would head straight to the dance studio, tirelessly perfecting every step. Her dance shoes had become a part of her feet, and her heart burned with a strong desire for victory. “Ellen, you’re a natural,” her fellow dancers would often say. “You’ve got this!”
The day of the competition finally arrived, and there were five competitors fighting for the championship title. Ellen was scheduled to perform before Grace.

“Ellen, you’re up next!” the stage manager announced.

According to a study published in the journal Nature on Wednesday, the Altar Stone probably came from the Orcadian Basin in Scotland, at least 466 miles from Stonehenge.(很長(zhǎng)一段時(shí)間以來(lái)，人們都認(rèn)為位于這個(gè)著名圓圈中間的祭壇石來(lái)自威爾士。然而，新的研究表明，它實(shí)際上來(lái)自數(shù)百英里外的蘇格蘭。這一發(fā)現(xiàn)提出了關(guān)于5000年前人們?nèi)绾芜\(yùn)輸石頭的新問(wèn)題。根據(jù)周三發(fā)表在《自然》雜志上的一項(xiàng)研究，祭壇石可能來(lái)自蘇格蘭的奧克迪亞盆地，距離巨石陣至少466英里。)”可知，本段主要討論的是關(guān)于祭壇石真正來(lái)源的發(fā)現(xiàn)。故選D項(xiàng)。
29. A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中“Chris Kirkland, one of the experts, said this discovery of where the Altar Stone came from showed there was a high level of cooperation from local people during the Neolithic period.(其中一位專家Chris Kirkland說(shuō)，祭壇石的來(lái)源的發(fā)現(xiàn)表明，在新石器時(shí)代，當(dāng)?shù)厝诉M(jìn)行了高度的合作。)”可知，團(tuán)隊(duì)合作在搬運(yùn)巨石上起了關(guān)鍵作用。故選A項(xiàng)。
30. A詞句猜測(cè)題。劃線詞句前文“While we can now say that this iconic rock is Scottish and not Welsh(雖然我們現(xiàn)在可以說(shuō)這塊標(biāo)志性的石頭是蘇格蘭的，而不是威爾士的)”和后文“where exactly in the north-east of Scotland the Altar Stone came from(這塊祭壇石在蘇格蘭東北部的確切位置)”說(shuō)明盡管現(xiàn)在可以說(shuō)這塊標(biāo)志性的石頭是蘇格蘭的，研究仍在繼續(xù)以弄清祭壇石到底是來(lái)自蘇格蘭東北部的什么位置，從而推知?jiǎng)澗€詞句“While we can now say that this iconic rock is Scottish and not Welsh, the research will still very much be on to pin down where exactly in the north-east of Scotland the Altar Stone came from(雖然我們現(xiàn)在可以說(shuō)這塊標(biāo)志性的石頭是蘇格蘭的，而不是威爾士的，但這項(xiàng)研究仍將繼續(xù)pin down這塊祭壇石在蘇格蘭東北部的確切位置。)”其中劃線短語(yǔ)應(yīng)為“查明，確定”的意思，與A項(xiàng)同義。故選A項(xiàng)。
31. B推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段中“The purpose of Stonehenge is still a puzzle. Some people think it was built for astronomical (天文的) reasons, while others think it was related to human sacrifice (祭祀).(巨石陣的目的仍然是個(gè)謎。一些人認(rèn)為它是出于天文原因而建造的，而另一些人則認(rèn)為它與活人祭祀有關(guān)。)”可知，人們對(duì)巨石陣的用途有不同的看法，一部分人認(rèn)為它是為天文目的而建，另一部分人認(rèn)為它與人類祭祀有關(guān)。故選B項(xiàng)。
【答案】32. C 33. A 34. D 35. C
【導(dǎo)語(yǔ)】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。文章主要講述了高效低成本的DeepSeek R1人工智能模型引發(fā)關(guān)注及其影響。
32. C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中“R1 can nearly match the capabilities of its far more famous competitors, including OpenAI’s GPT-4, Meta’s Llama and Google’s Gemini — but it costs much less. (R1幾乎可以與那些名氣大得多的競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手相媲美，其中包括OpenAI的GPT-4、Meta的 Llama以及谷歌的Gemini—— 但它的成本要低得多)”以及第二段中“But R1 gained significant attention this week when the company revealed its shockingly low cost of operation. (但本周，當(dāng)該公司透露其驚人的低成本運(yùn)營(yíng)時(shí)，R1引起了廣泛關(guān)注)”可知，DeepSeek R1令人驚嘆的是其成本效益。故選C。
33. A推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段中“Andreessen, who set up Andreessen Horowitz, calls DeepSeek one of the most amazing and impressive achievements that he has ever seen in a post on the Internet. (創(chuàng)建了Andreessen Horowitz的Andreessen在互聯(lián)網(wǎng)上的一篇帖子中稱，DeepSeek是他所見(jiàn)過(guò)的最令人驚嘆和印象深刻的成就之一)”可知，Andreessen對(duì)DeepSeek R1的能力持積極態(tài)度。故選A。
34. D 推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段“Although the cost-saving achievement may be significant, the R1 model hasn’t yet proven it can deal with some of the extremely ambitious (耗資的) AI capabilities for industries that for now still require huge and large amounts of investment. (盡管節(jié)省成本的成就可能很顯著，但R1模型尚未證明它能夠處理一些對(duì)目前仍需要大量投資的行業(yè)來(lái)說(shuō)極具雄心的AI能力)”可知，R1模型仍然存在技術(shù)瓶頸。故選D。
35. C主旨大意題。通讀全文，尤其是根據(jù)第一段中“A surprisingly efficient and powerful Chinese AI model has taken the technology industry by storm. It’s called DeepSeek R1, which makes Wall Street nervous. The new AI model was developed by DeepSeek, a company that was born in 2023. R1 can nearly match the capabilities of its far more famous competitors, including OpenAI’s GPT-4, Meta’s Llama and Google’s Gemini — but it costs much less. The company spent just $5.6 million powering its base AI model, compared with the hundreds of millions of dollars American companies spend. (一款效率驚人且功能強(qiáng)大的中國(guó)人工智能模型在科技行業(yè)引發(fā)了轟動(dòng)。它被稱為 “深思R1”，這讓華爾街感到緊張。這款新的人工智能模型由成立于2023年的深思公司開(kāi)發(fā)。R1幾乎可以與那些名氣大得多的競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手相媲美，其中包括OpenAI的GPT-4、Meta的Llama以及谷歌的Gemini—— 但它的成本要低得多。該公司僅花費(fèi)了560萬(wàn)美元為其基礎(chǔ)人工智能模型提供算力支持，而美國(guó)公司在這方面的花費(fèi)則高達(dá)數(shù)億美元)”可知，本文主要介紹了DeepSeek R1這一高效低成本的人工智能模型，引發(fā)了關(guān)注和討論，C項(xiàng)“DeepSeek R1: Low-cost Wonder (DeepSeek R1：低成本奇跡)”能夠概括文章主旨，適合作為標(biāo)題。故選C。

40. G 根據(jù)上文“Sometimes when things don’t go according to plan, I think about the stranger we met on the streets and how a tiny mistake on our part led to unexpected results.(有時(shí)候，當(dāng)事情沒(méi)有按計(jì)劃進(jìn)行時(shí)，我會(huì)想起我們?cè)诮稚嫌龅降哪莻€(gè)陌生人，想到我們的一個(gè)小錯(cuò)誤是如何導(dǎo)致意想不到的結(jié)果的)”可知，事情不按原計(jì)劃發(fā)展時(shí)作者總會(huì)想起那位陌生人和那次旅行，所以空處應(yīng)是總結(jié)那次旅行得出的感悟，故G項(xiàng)“這次旅行提醒我們，黑暗中總有一線光明”符合語(yǔ)境。故選G。

第四部分 寫作（共兩節(jié)，滿分40分）
第一節(jié) 應(yīng)用文寫作（滿分15分）
【答案】Dear fellow students,
Recently, we’ve noticed that an increasing number of students are relying on AI tools to complete their assignments, which has led to some negative consequences.
To address the issues, we should use AI as a supplementary tool to enhance learning rather than a replacement for our own efforts, which may violate academic integrity principles and result in the lack of originality and creativity. Additionally, it is significant to critically evaluate the information generated by AI rather than accept it blindly.
Let’s use artificial intelligence in a reasonable and responsible manner. Only by doing so can we make the most of AI technology. Your effort counts!

第二節(jié) 讀后續(xù)寫（滿分25分）
【答案】
Grace knew her dress would fit Ellen perfectly, but she hesitated. After all, it was Ellen’s own fault for breaking her dress. However, Grace also understood that sometimes in competition, we should put aside our differences and help each other. She took a deep breath and approached Ellen. “Ellen, I heard your problem,” Grace said with a soft voice, “my dress can fit you perfectly. You can wear my dress on stage.” Ellen’s eyes widened in surprise. “Grace, you would do that for me ” she asked, her voice trembling.“Of course, Ellen,” Grace replied, a gentle smile on her face. “Now, go out there and show them what you’ve got.”
Tears of thanks welled up in Ellen’s eyes as she put on Grace’s dress. She knew that she had let herself down and almost gave up, but Grace’s act of kindness restored her faith in herself. She vowed to herself that she would not let Grace down and would do her best in the competition. Finally, Ellen won the competition with her outstanding performance. But what made her happiest was having such a good friend.

W: You’ve done a good job, Graham.
