I believe in the power of science fiction, not just for its capacity to turn dreams into reality, but also for its power to bond together those who share a common view of the future. For me, that’s true for my relationship with my dad. Some fathers and sons bond over sports, fishing or hunting, but my dad and I bond over Star Trek(星际迷航).
When we’re driving along some dark streets in Indiana, going at a slow speed with stars dimly shining, both of us are thinking of it, without needing to say a word. All these imaginations of other universes have together created a private universe for my dad and me.
Gene Roddenberry, creator of star Trek, once said, “Science fiction is a way of thinking and a way of logic. It allows people to look directly at important subjects.” Science fiction has influenced more than just my relationship with my dad, but has also helped me shape my own hopes for the future. I’m now a science writer.
Science fiction also has been a source of joy for my family, making me an optimist while enabling me to think critically about the danger of technology. Thank those authors who have shared their visions. The world and my family are better for it. Thank my dad, because he helped me realize the truth of Tennyson’s words, “For I dipped into the future, far as human eyes could see, saw the vision of the world, and all the wonder that would be.”
4. What contributes to the bond between the author and his father?
A. Their similar dream. B. Their love for each other.
C. Their wide hobbies. D. Their common interest.
5. What does the author mainly show in paragraph 2?
A. His deep impression of his dad. B. His feeling of staying with his dad.
C. His good relationship with his dad. D. His earliest memory of his dad.
6. How does science fiction help the author at present?
A. It brings him the courage to live better. B. It makes him a source of his family’s joy.
C. It inspires him to face the danger of technology. D. It leads him to pursue a desirable career.
7. What is the text mainly about?
A. The power of science fiction B. The wonders science brings
C. The stories about science fiction D. The time together with my father
【答案】4. D 5. C 6. D 7. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是夹叙夹议文。文章主要讲述了作者和父亲都热爱科幻小说,它不仅帮助作者和父亲建立了深厚的感情,而且帮助作者实现了梦想。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Some fathers and sons bond over sports, fishing or hunting, but my dad and l bond over Star Trek.”(有些父亲和儿子喜欢运动、钓鱼或打猎,但我父亲和我喜欢《星际迷航》。)可知,作者和他父亲之间的特殊关系是他们的共同兴趣。故选 D。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“When we’re driving along some dark streets in Indiana, going at a slow speed with stars dimly shining, both of us are thinking of it, without needing to say a word. All these imaginations of other universes have together created a private universe for my dad and me.”(我们在印第安纳州一些黑暗街道上开车,以缓慢的速度行驶。我们两个人都在想着它,不用说一句话。所有这些对其他宇宙的景象一起为我和爸爸创造了一个私人的宇宙。)可知,作者在第二段主要表明了他和他爸爸的关系很好。故选 C。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Science fiction has influenced more than just my relationship with my dad, but has also helped me shape my own hopes for the future. I'm now a science writer.”(科幻小说不仅影响了我和父亲的关系,还帮助我塑造了自己对未来的希望。我现在是一名科学作家。)可知,科幻小说引领作者追求理想的事业。故选 D。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“I believe in the power of science fiction, not just for its capacity to transform dreams into reality, but also for its power to bond together those who share a common vision of the future.”(我相信科幻小说的能量,不仅是因为它能把梦想变成现实,还因为它能把那些对未来有共同看法的人联系在一起。)结合文章主要讲述了作者和父亲都热爱科幻小说,它不仅帮助作者和父亲建立了深厚的感情,而且帮助作者实现了梦想。故A选项“科幻小说的力量”符合文章标题。故选A。

On September 1, 1985, Dr. Robert Ballard and his crew spotted one of Titanic’s boilers. They erupted with cheers. By the time of the crew’s discovery, 73 years had passed since the ship sank. Several missions had set off to look for it, including a 1977 one led by Ballard.
In the early 1980s, Ballard asked the U. S. Navy to fund the development of the Argo, an unmanned camera sled that could be dragged behind a surface ship at depths of up to 20, 000 feet. The Navy were interested in using the Argo to survey the wrecks (沉船)of the U. S. S. Thresher and Scorpion, two nuclear submarines (潜水艇)that had been lost in the North Atlantic. They eventually agreed that if Ballard could successfully locate and map the two subs, he could use whatever time left to look for Titanic.
While photographing Thresher and Scorpion, Ballard noticed that the current had carried debris (碎片)from the ships as they fell to the seafloor, creating a long chain. With this in mind, he decided not to search for Titanic’s main body. Instead, he would use Argo to search for its much larger debris track, which might stretch as far as a mile. Once he found it, he could use it to track down the ship itself. With the new approach, after a few days, they discovered the boiler. Argo stalked the debris track, and the following morning, Titanic’s bow came out of the inky depths.
“The Titanic lies now in 13, 000 feet of water,” Ballard said at a press conference, “There is no light at this great depth and little life can be found. It is a quiet and peaceful place-and a fitting place for the remains of this greatest of sea tragedies to rest. Forever may it remain that way.”
8. Why did the Navy support the development of the Argo?
A. To develop underwater robots.
B. To locate the wreck of Titanic.
C. To find two nuclear submarines.
D. To map the North Atlantic.
9. What gave Ballard inspiration for the new search method?
A. The 1977 search attempt.
B. The surface ship with the Argo.
C. The photographs of Titanic.
D. The debris chain of the submarines.
10. What does the underlined word “stalked” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Traced. B. Recognized.
C. Cleared. D. Dragged.
11. What is the purpose of Ballard’s statement at the press conference?
A. To share the exact position of Titanic.
B. To advocate leaving Titanic undisturbed.
C. To launch surveys on sea tragedies.
D. To show respect for Ballard’s crew.
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了Dr. Robert Ballard和他的船员发现泰坦尼克号上的一个锅炉的过程,以及在发布会上呼吁让泰坦尼克号保持现在的状态。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“They eventually agreed that if Ballard could successfully locate and map the two subs, he could use whatever time left to look for Titanic.(他们最终同意,如果巴拉德能够成功定位并绘制两艘潜艇的地图,他可以利用剩下的时间寻找泰坦尼克号。)”可知,海军对丢失的两艘核潜艇感兴趣,只要Ballard能定位和绘制出两艘舰艇的地图,就可以资助他们开发Argo,所以他们资助开发Argo是为了找到两艘舰艇。故选C项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“While photographing Thresher and Scorpion, Ballard noticed that the current had carried debris (碎片)from the ships as they fell to the seafloor, creating a long chain. With this in mind, he decided not to search for Titanic’s main body.(在拍摄Thresher和Scorpion两艘舰艇时,Ballard注意到水流从船上掉落到海底时携带了碎片,重新形成了一条长链。 考虑到这一点,他决定不寻找泰坦尼克号的主体。)”可知,Ballard注意到水流从船上携带了很多碎片,形成一条长链,这使得他决定不再寻找泰坦尼克号的主体,所以潜艇的碎片链启发他使用新的搜查方法。故选D项。
【10题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第三段中的“Instead, he would use Argo to search for its much larger debris track, which might stretch as far as a mile. Once he found it, he could use it to track down the ship itself. With the new approach, after a few days, they discovered the boiler.(相反,他会使用Argo来搜索其更大的碎片轨迹,这些碎片轨道可能延伸至一英里。一旦他找到它,他就可以用它来追踪轮船本身。通过新方法,几天后,他们发现了锅炉。)”可知,他用Argo搜索更大的碎片轨迹,一旦找到,就可以用它来跟踪轮船本身,根据该单词后面的“and the following morning, Titanic’s bow came out of the inky depths.(第二天早上,泰坦尼克号的船头从漆黑的深处出来了。)”可知,他们使用Argo搜索轮船的方法成功了,而该单词所在的句子是对以上方法的进一步陈述,所以此处Argo应是“跟踪”轨迹,最后泰坦尼克号的船头浮出水面。故选A项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““The Titanic lies now in 13, 000 feet of water,” Ballard said at a press conference, “There is no light at this great depth and little life can be found. It is a quiet and peaceful place-and a fitting place for the remains of this greatest of sea tragedies to rest. Forever may it remain that way.”(“泰坦尼克号现在躺在13,000英尺的水中,”巴拉德在新闻发布会上说,“在这么深的地方,这里没有任何东西,几乎找不到生命。这是一个安静祥和的地方,也是这个最大的海上悲剧的遗迹休息的合适地方。愿它永远保持这种状态。”)”可知,在发布会上,Ballard泰坦尼克号所处的地方是一个安静祥和的地方,也是适合他的遗迹休息的合适地方,所以他的发布会是呼吁人们不要再去干扰泰坦尼克号。故选B项。
D
Parenting styles have evolved over the years in response to the rapid social changes. Whether it is tapping technology or applying the best parenting practices, parents nowadays generally invest more time in finding out how best to raise their child.
Modern parents have access to the internet and social media for ideal parenting advice and tips. There are also numerous parenting groups for different age groups on social media that parents can join. A parent can post questions from how to manage the constant cries of an infant to how to talk to a moody teenager, and chances are, the parent will be flooded instantly with advice and relevant articles. The availability of resources has helped modern parents to be more involved and supportive of their children’s development, academically, emotionally and socially. Modern parents are also keener to find out about effective parenting methods to raise disciplined and confident children.
Meanwhile, one of modern parenting styles, helicopter parenting, arises. When parents become over-involved, over-concerned and over-controlling, they start helping children with what they are capable of on their own, for example, selecting activities and friends for them. Such a parenting style can restrict the children’s ability to handle responsibilities independently. Children might be ill-equipped with life skills such as operating a stove or monitoring their schoolwork. Overprotecting children from failures may also be prevented from developing resilience (韧性) and acquiring skills like problem-solving.
On the other hand, parents in the past tended to supervise (监管) less. Children were given more control over how they managed their schoolwork and the friends they chose to play with. They were often expected to shoulder the responsibilities of caring for younger siblings and managing household chores. Living in the preinternet era, parents were less informed about different parenting approaches and personalities.
There is no one right way to raise a child and there is no need to doubt about the best parenting style. Each child is unique and should be raised differently by parents who are present, but not hovering (盘旋);who are supportive but not controlling; and who protect but not spoil.
12. What does the author explain by mentioning “an infant” and “a moody teenager” in paragraph 2?
A. Devotion to kids.
B. Easy access to guidance.
C. Effective parenting.
D. Tricky parenting problems.
13. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about concerning modern parenting?
A. Its benefits. B. Its influence.
C Its characteristics. D. Its type.
14. What can we learn about parents in the past?
A. They had strengths and weaknesses in parenting.
B. They were wiser than modern parents in1 parenting.
C. They were to blame for child development prospect.
D. They contributed to the children’s well-rounded abilities.
15. What is the purpose of writing the article?
A. To recommend how to parent wisely.
B. To appeal to learn from modern parents.
C. To inform how parenting has changed.
D. To introduce two parenting strategies.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了随着社会的变化,父母的育儿方式也发生着变化,对比了过去和现代的育儿方式。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段中“A parent can post questions from how to manage the constant cries of an infant to how to talk to a moody teenager, and chances are, the parent will be flooded instantly with advice and relevant articles.(父母可以发布问题,从如何管理婴儿不断的哭声到如何与喜怒无常的青少年交谈,很有可能,父母会立即被建议和相关文章淹没。)”可知,作者在第2段中提到“婴儿”和“喜怒无常的少年”,是为了解释了现代父母可以通过互联网轻松获得指导。故选B。
【13题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段第一句“Meanwhile, one of modern parenting styles, helicopter parenting, arises.(与此同时,现代育儿方式之一,直升机育儿,出现了。)”及下文内容父母过度参与出现的影响,可知本段主要讲述了现代育儿方式之一的直升机育儿。故选D。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“On the other hand, parents in the past tended to supervise (监管)less. Children were given more control over how they managed their schoolwork and the friends they chose to play with. They were often expected to shoulder the responsibilities of caring for younger siblings and managing household chores. Living in the preinternet era, parents were less informed about different parenting approaches and personalities. (另一方面,过去的父母倾向于较少监督。孩子们可以更好地控制他们如何管理他们的功课和他们选择一起玩的朋友。他们经常被期望承担照顾弟弟妹妹和管理家务的责任。生活在前互联网时代,父母对不同的育儿方法和个性知之甚少。)”可知,在过去,父母对孩子的监管少有利于孩子自己管理他们的功课和一起玩耍的朋友,孩子们还要照顾弟弟妹妹和管理家务,但是对不同的育儿方法和个性知道的不多,即过去父母的育儿方式既有优点也有缺点。故选A。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段中“Parenting styles have evolved over the years in response to the rapid social changes.(多年来,为了应对快速的社会变化,育儿方式一直在演变。)”及最后一段中“There is no one right way to raise a child and there is no need to doubt about the best parenting style.(养育孩子没有一种正确的方法,也没有必要怀疑最好的养育方式。)”以及文章中同时也提到了育儿方式受到现在社会的影响并和过去做了比较,所以,作者写这篇文章的目的是想说明育儿方式是如何变化的,故选C。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
If you suffer from social anxiety, you will fear certain situations. Some fear speaking in front of groups of people, while others fear going to parties or other types of social events. In whichever situation your fear arises, you’ll probably experience sweating, flushing, feeling your heart race, or other symptoms of anxiety. ___16___
Number one: Deep muscle relaxation.
Learning to physically relax is one of the best ways to combat anxiety. ___17___ For deep muscle relaxation, you will tense and then relax the major muscle groups of your body, beginning with your feet and working your way towards your head and face.
Number Two: Slow breathing.
___18___ When you’re anxious, your breathing becomes faster and more shallow and as a result, you’ll feel light-headed and dizzy, bringing on more anxiety. Learning to breathe slower and more regularly through your nose will help you calm down.
Number Three: Visualization.
The key to visualization is to remember a place where you felt safe and comfortable. Once you remember this place, get a picture of it in your mind so clearly that you can feel, see, smell and even taste that place. ___19___
Number Four: ___20___
Most people with social anxiety want to hide, avoid, or run away from whatever they’re scared of. But by facing your anxiety instead you’ll find that it is usually something you can tolerate after a few exposures. When using this method, focus on what’s going on around you instead of what’s going through your mind. That should help you distract yourself from those anxious thoughts.
A. Facing your anxiety.
B. Controlling your thoughts.
C. This takes practice and patience.
D. It’s impossible to feel both relaxed and anxious.
E. This technique will help you better handle the situation of being desperate.
F. Whatever your symptoms, there are things you can do to deal with your social anxiety.
G. Controlling your breathing when you suffer anxiety is another good way to deal with your emotions.
【答案】16. F 17. D 18. G 19. C 20. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了一些缓解社交焦虑的方法。
【16题详解】
空前“If you suffer from social anxiety, you will fear certain situations. Some fear speaking in front of groups of people, while others fear going to parties or other types of social events. In whichever situation your fear arises, you’ll probably experience sweating, flushing, feeling your heart race, or other symptoms of anxiety.(如果你患有社交焦虑症,你会害怕某些情况。有些人害怕在一群人面前讲话,而另一些人害怕参加聚会或其他类型社交活动。无论你在哪种情况下产生恐惧,你可能会感到出汗、脸红、心跳加速或其他焦虑症状)”介绍了恐惧的一些症状,空后介绍了几种缓解社交焦虑症的方法,因此空格处应该指出有方法缓解社交焦虑症,F选项“Whatever your symptoms, there are things you can do to deal with your social anxiety.(无论你的症状是什么,你都可以做一些事情来应对你的社交焦虑)”承接空前所说的症状,引出了空后的缓解方法,因此F选项承上启下,符合语境,故选F。
17题详解】
根据空前“Learning to physically relax is one of the best ways to combat anxiety.(学会放松身体是对抗焦虑的最好方法之一)”推知,空格处对感到焦虑的时候放松自己做出评论,D选项“It’s impossible to feel both relaxed and anxious.(既放松又焦虑是不可能的)”符合语境,故选D。
【18题详解】
本段小标题是“Number Two: Slow breathing.(第二:缓慢呼吸)”,因此空格处内容应该与呼吸有关,G选项“Controlling your breathing when you suffer anxiety is another good way to deal with your emotions.(当你感到焦虑时控制呼吸是另一种处理情绪的好方法)”与呼吸有关,因此符合本段主旨,故选G。
【19题详解】
空处位于段末应承接上文。根据空前“The key to visualization is to remember a place where you felt safe and comfortable. Once you remember this place, get a picture of it in your mind so clearly that you can feel, see, smell and even taste that place.(想象的关键是记住一个让你感到安全和舒适的地方。一旦你记住了这个地方,在脑海中清晰地描绘出它的画面,这样你就能感觉到、看到、闻到甚至尝到那个地方的味道)”推知,空格处应该对想象这种方法进行评价,C选项“This takes practice and patience.(这需要练习和耐心)”符合语境,this指代上文的visualization。故选C。
【20题详解】
空格处是本段小标题,由空后的“But by facing your anxiety instead you’ll find that it is usually something you can tolerate after a few exposures.(但是通过直面你的焦虑,你会发现它通常是你在几次接触后可以忍受的)”可知,本段主要讲的是要直面焦虑,A选项“Facing your anxiety.(面对你的焦虑)”概括了本段主要内容,可作为小标题,故选A。

Are we coming into an age ___36___ seeing isn’t believing? Recently a “face-changing” technology, better known as Deepfakes, has made its way to our lives. Deepfakes are most commonly created with ___37___ AI software called Fake App, a free app. The ___38___ (apply) of this app can create fake videos that look real, which makes it difficult ___39___(identify) who is actually playing in the videos.
The new technology greatly caters to various ___40___ (need) of those working in medium studios. After being ___41___(digital) processed with the technology, a video can take on different forms, which certainly save them lots of time and production costs.

【36题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:我们是不是进入了眼见不为实的时代?分析句子结构可知,空格处引导的是定语从句,从句中不缺主语或宾语,先行词age表时间,因此空格处用关系副词when,故填when。
【37题详解】
考查冠词。句意:Deepfakes最常用的是一款名为Fake App的人工智能软件,这是一款免费应用。software是可数名词,此处表泛指,前面需加不定冠词,AI是元音音素开头,因此不定冠词用an,故填an。
【38题详解】
考查名词。句意:这款应用程序可以制作看起来很真实的假视频,这使得人们很难识别视频中到底是谁在玩。空格处用名词作主语,根据语境可知,此处是指“这款应用程序可以制作看起来很真实的假视频”,空格处意为“应用”,名词是application,故填application。
【39题详解】
考查不定式。句意:这款应用程序可以制作看起来很真实的假视频,这使得人们很难识别视频中到底是谁在玩。make it difficult to do是固定短语,意为“使做某事变得困难”,其中it是形式宾语,不定式是真正的宾语,因此空格处用不定式to identify,故填to identify。
【40题详解】
考查名词的复数。句意:这种新技术极大地满足了那些在中型工作室工作的人的各种需求。根据语境可知,句子表示“这种新技术极大地满足了那些在中型工作室工作的人的各种需求”,need作名词,意为“需求”,various后跟名词的复数needs,故填needs。
【41题详解】
考查副词。句意:在用这种技术进行数字处理后,视频可以呈现出不同形式,这无疑为他们节省了大量的时间和制作成本。空格处用副词digitally修饰动词processed,digitally意为“数码地,数字地”,故填digitally。
【42题详解】
考查动名词。句意:然而,一些人表示他们不赞成滥用这项技术。空格处用动名词abusing作介词of的宾语,故填abusing。
【43题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意:到目前为止,新技术带来的道德问题已经带来了越来越多的担忧。根据“so far”可知,句子时态是现在完成时,主语problems是复数,因此空格处是have brought。故填have brought。
【44题详解】
考查固定短语。句意:我们正在剥夺人们的肖像权。rob sb. of sth.是固定短语,意为“剥夺某人的某物”,因此空格处是介词of,故填of。
【45题详解】
考查物主代词。句意:他强烈建议应该阻止这种技术的发展。根据语境可知,句子表示“他强烈建议应该阻止这种技术的发展”,tracks和it之间是所属关系,空格处意为“它的”,用形容词性物主代词its修饰名词tracks,故填its。

第三节 读后续写(满分20分)
52. 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。
Dusty, the Wonder Dog
When I was a kid, my godparents, Uncle Nell and Aunt Frances, brought me a four-month-old puppy. She was half German shepherd,half collie. As her pink tongue tickled(挠痒)my face with wet licks,it was love at first hug.
My family named the puppy Dusty. Although I wanted to lay sole claim to her affection,in a family of seven kids, no one lays permanent claim to the family pet.
Dusty was our dog, not “my” dog. We soon realized that she had the patience of Buddha. My baby sister often transformed Dusty’s warm fur into a nap-time pillow-falling asleep on the rug. Like a protective mother, Dusty waited-without moving-until my sister woke.
Dusty doubled as a school crossing guard, too. Monday through Friday she’d walk us kids two blocks to St. Patrick’s Parochial, looking both ways to check for traffic before allowing us to cross the street. We’d wave good-bye as we entered the door, knowing Dusty would be waiting at the school door to claim us at the close of the school day.
Of all the contributions Dusty made to our family, one incident stands out far and above all others. Late one night Dusty rushed to my parents’ bedroom. She barked and barked. When she got no response, Dusty raced upstairs to my bedroom and my brothers’ bedroom and barked again and again. When she failed to fully wake us, she flew back down the steps and retimed to my parents’ room. Finally, she got Mom’s attention.
“What are you doing, Dusty?” Mom snapped, still halfway in dreamland. Dusty persisted. Finally my mother gave in. “Okay, what is it?”
Dusty whined(哀嚎)and rushed out of Mom’s room. Thinking the dog needed to be let out to relieve herself, my mother followed Dusty to the front door.
When Mom opened the door to let her out, Dusty tore across the street, not stopping to do her business as my mother had assumed. Then she discovered what Dusty already knew.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The house across the street, where my best friend Marianne lived, was on fire.

However,my mother refused to take all the credit(赞扬).
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】参考范文
The house across the street,where my best friend Marianne lived, was on fire.All of Dusty’s middle-of-the-night craziness had served a purpose:she’s been trying to call for help.Dusty ran to Marianne’s front door,scratched the door and kept barking.My mother alerted the fire department immediately.Soon,the firemen in their trucks roared up the street,squelching the blaze and saving my best friend’s family from harm and their house from total ruin.Marianne’s mother thanked the firemen with tears and the firemen said it was my mother’s timely alarm call that saved them and their house.
However,my mother refused to take all the credit(赞扬).“It was Dusty,”she told the firefighters.“She saved them.Not me.” It was then that we see that the real hero was sitting beside me silently.I put my arms around her neck and kissed her square on the tip of her wet nose.“Thank you for saving Marianne,”I whispered into Dusty’s tan and black ear.“You’re the bravest dog I’ve ever known.” Dusty wagged her tail and licked my face.That old familiar rush of puppy love overtook me.I smiled and promised to let her sleep in my bed for the rest of her life.
