一、阅读理解
RINSE AND REPEAT
The water used by yur husehld can then d duble duty n a lawn r garden. Welcme t grey water recycling.
Water’s nt black and white: There’s a grey zne. What ges dwn the drain after shwers, tthbrushing, r laundry is called grey water (in cntrast t black water which ges dwn the tilet). Yu wuldn’t drink it, but yur plants can.
Califrnia-based Greywater Actin runs wrkshps n reusing rainwater and drain water. Nt all lcatins allw it, but in thse that d, it’s relatively simple t set up. Here are sme basics.
The easy slutin
Prjects that reuse grey water range frm the prfessinal t the DIY: a laundry-t-landscape system that can be made ver a weekend with a few hundred dllars in parts. Install a diverter valve (分流阀) n the pipe f yur washing machine. After a cycle, guide used water ut thrugh a PVC pipe t plantings.
Strage and use
Use a grey water prject t rethink yur landscape, suggests Greywater Actin c-funder Laura Allen. Start with reducing typically thirsty lawns and then add climate-apprpriate trees, bushes, and grund cver. Besides, grey water smells if it’s nt used right nw. Allen als advises flushing (冲洗) strage tanks daily.
Wrk the laws
If yur city r state regulatins ban the use f grey water, ask t have them reviewed. Diverting grey water can help cnventinal wastewater treatment systems last lnger and reduce peak flw int channels. Als, it isn’t “grey” until it ges dwn a drain. S catch water that falls as the shwer warms in a five-galln cntainer, then use it in yur tilet tank r garden.
1．What des the text fcus n?

C．Hw grey water can be reused.D．Hw grey water can be reduced.
2．What can we knw abut grey water in the text?
A．Water flushed by the tilet is grey water.
B．The facilities must be installed by prfessinals.
C．Grey water shuld be used immediately t prevent smells.
D．The strage tanks have t be carefully washed nce a week.

On July 2, 1937, Amelia Earhart and Fred Nnan left Lae, New Guinea fr Hwland Island in the Pacific. This was withut a dubt the lngest and mst dangerus part f their trip arund the wrld. Earhart had truble shrtly after takeff. The weather was strmy, s she had t fly at apprximately 3,000 meters. Ging this high the plane used up gas quickly.
After abut 20 hurs, Earhart and Nnan apprached Hwland Island. The island was nly abut a hundred kilmeters away at this pint, but the bright sun was shining in their faces, s they culdn’t see it. Near Hwland, a ship—the Itasca—was waiting. Earhart cntacted the ship: “Gas is lw,” she said. The Itasca tried t maintain cntact with her, but it gt n respnse. Finally, the Itasca called fr help. Peple searched fr Earhart and Nnan fr days. Despite great effrts, they fund nthing.
What happened t Amelia Earhart? N ne knws fr sure. During the flight, she likely headed in the wrng directin because the sun was bright and it was hard t see. Perhaps she and Nnan gt lst smewhere ver the Pacific. Sn after, her plane ran ut f gas, and she crashed int the sea. Anther idea is that Earhart might have landed n a nearby, uninhabited island called Nikumarr, where she later died. Researchers recently brught bne-sniffing dgs t the island, thugh, and n human bnes were fund. A mre extreme thery is that Earhart flew the plane t Marshall Island and later secretly returned t the United States under a new name.
The first thery seems mst likely. Hwever, nne f these ideas has been prven. Tday, peple are still investigating Earhart’s and Nnan’s disappearance. Whatever happened, Earhart prbably died as she wished, “When I g,” she nce said, “I’d like best t g in my plane.”
4．Why was the flight t Hwland Island s difficult t Earhart and Nnan?
A．The trip was mst dangerus in the wrld.
B．The flight cntained a height f 3,000 meters.
C．Earhart and Nnan were inexperienced pilts.
D．Hwland Island was far away frm New Guinea.
5．What happened shrtly after Earhart and Nnan tk ff frm New Guinea?
A．They were frced t fly higher because f a strm.
B．The sun was t bright t see s Earhart lst directin.
C．The Itasca gt n respnse frm them and lst their cntact.
D．Their plane sn ran ut f gasline s it crashed int the sea.
6．Hw is Paragraph 3 develped?
A．By giving examples.B．By listing assumptins.
C．By making cntrast.D．By prviding cause and effect.
7．What is the passage mainly abut?
A．A failed trip t explre Hwland Island.
B．A mysterius disappearance f tw pilts.
C．A difficult investigatin f a missing plane.
D．Tw wmen heric pilts and their last flight.
Seafd that never sees the sea
Althugh 80% f the wrld’s seafd cmes frm marine harvests, there is a majr shift underway tward aquaculture (水产业) nw. Nearly 40% f salmn marketed tday is raised in fish farms, cmpared with 6% a decade ag. Almst 35% f all ysters are prduced in farm envirnments, alng with 65% f freshwater fish. “The fact that wrld seafd supplies cntinue t increase at all is due almst entirely t the phenmenal grwth in aquaculture,” says Anne Platt McGinn, a research assciate at the Wrldwatch Institute.
Bitechnlgy is cntributing t high-yield aquaculture thrugh transgenics—the transfer f genes frm ne species t anther. Researchers intrduce advantageus genetic features int fish, creating strnger stcks. Fr example, sme species f fish have a prtein that allws them t live in Arctic waters. By transplanting this “anti-freeze” gene int ther species, researchers have created mre fish that can survive in extremely cld water. Bitechnlgists are attempting t imprve a wide range f genetic features in fish used fr aquaculture, develping fish that are larger and faster-grwing, mre efficient in changing feed int muscle, mre tlerant f lw xygen levels in water, and better able t resist disease.
While aquaculture prduces a reliable surce f prtein, there are a lt f envirnmental prblems in the industry, claims McGinn. Perhaps the biggest cncern is water pllutin. Fish waste and uneaten fd accumulate at farm sites and can flat directly dwnstream int water supplies. McGinn charges that aquaculture als uses resurces inefficiently. Fish farms need prtein feed, and abut 17% f cean fish, an verharvested wild resurce, becmes fd fr farm-raised fish. “An estimated five kilgrams f ceanic fish reduced int fish meal are required t raise ne kilgram f farmed cean fish r shrimp, representing a large net prtein lss,” says McGinn.
Fish farming des nt have t be an inefficient r plluting industry. McGinn predicts that many cnsumers will chse sustainably prduced fish in the future, just as they prefer dlphin-free tuna (金枪鱼) tday.
8．What can we infer frm Paragraph 1?
A．Nearly 80% f the wrld’s seafd is surced frm marine harvests.
B．The aquaculture underges minr changes within the recent decade.
C．Mst f the seafd peple cnsume are supplied by fish farms tday.
D．The increase in aquaculture brings abut the rise f wrld seafd supplies.
9．Hw d bitechnlgists prmte the high prductin f seafd?
A．They create even larger and faster-grwing fish.
B．They make use f the technlgy f transgenics.
C．They intrduce a variety f genetic features in fish.
D．They transplant “anti-freeze” genes int ther species.
10．What is ne f the prblems caused by present seafd industry?
A．It fails t prvide a reliable surce f prtein.
B．It reduces the wild resurce fr farm-raised fish.
C．It leads t the ver-cnsumptin f ceanic fish.
D．It causes great water pllutin dwnstream nly.
11．What des McGinn mean by saying “just as they prefer dlphin-free tuna tday”?
A．Aquaculture is a very serius plluting industry.
B．Fish farming can be imprved t be ec-friendly.
C．Mst cnsumers are against the present fish farming.
D．Dlphin-free tuna is cnsumers’ favurite fish meal.
If yu think search engines pwered by artificial intelligence prvide yu with useful-sunding answers, it is mre likely that yu are wrng, researchers have fund. “In these current systems, accuracy is negatively related t perceived usefulness,” says Nelsn at Stanfrd University. “The things that lk better end up being wrse.”
Micrsft is just ne f many cmpanies ffering AI-pwered search tls, which generate results in digestible paragraphs that cite ther websites rather than simply returning a list f links. T investigate these tls, Nelsn and his clleagues fed 1,450 ppular searches int Bing Chat and ther such tls, including NeevaAI and PerplexityAI. These questins included examples such as “What are the latest technlgical discveries?” The team then asked peple t rate whether the cntent used as citatins (引文) in the results actually supprted the statements made by the AIs.
Accrding t this assessment, nly 75% f citatins supprted the sentences they were attached t, and nly 52% f statements were supprted by citatins at all. “That means the rest either have n citatins, r they are just wrng.” says Nelsn.
The researchers als asked peple t rate fluency f respnse and hw useful they seemed, and discvered a negative crrespndence. Fr every 0.1 increase in fluency ratings, the precisin decreased by 10.6%.
Aravind Srinlvas, a c-funder f PerplexityAI, says he welcmes the study. “The results are similar t the wrk the cmpany has cnducted, and imprvements are pssible. Never judge an upcming technlgy by what it is tday, but rather by the ptential fr what it can be in the future,” he says. But Nelsn isn’t sure whether AI-pwered search is the right apprach. “I’m a little mixed n whether such search tls shuld be rlled int systems,” he says.
12．Hw did Nelsn’s team examine the AI-pwered search tls?
A．They interviewed different experts n this field.
B．They invited Bing Chat users t rate the cntent.
C．They cmpared the results f different cmpanies.
D．They input cmmnly searched questins int the tls.
13．Why did Nelsn’s team cnduct the study n AI-pwered engines?
A．T ffer surces and citatins.B．T demnstrate their ptentials.
C．T highlight their psitive aspects.D．T test their accuracy and fluency.
14．What is Aravind Srinlvas’s attitude twards the future f AI-pwered engines?
A．Optimistic.B．Intlerant.C．Skeptical.D．Wait-and-see.
15．Which f the fllwing can be the best title fr the text?
A．AI Is Cming t Search Engines
B．Hw t Live with Artificial Intelligence
C．Can We Trust AI-Pwered Search Engine
D．Micrsft Adpts AI-Pwered Search Engine

“NO!” the kids prtested.
“We’ve gt t g t cntest!”
“In Class A．”
“It’s traditin!”
This was true. Medals lined the frnt wall f the music rm frm the past successes f large, talented classes. But a swing in educatinal plicies, with an emphasis n academics, had reduced my chir t a me re thirty-tw students. My sectin leaders had graduated r been frced t drp music classes, leaving me with yung, inexperienced kids wh culdn’t read music, culdn’t hld their parts, and culd sing nly a simple meldy.

8．D 9．B 10．C 11．B
【导语】本文是说明文。这篇短文主要讲述了海洋养殖业的发展和影响。海洋捕捞正发生一场重大转变，向水产养殖业转变。生物技术通过转基因技术为高产水产养殖做出了贡献。虽然水产养殖业提供了可靠的蛋白质来源，但是环境问题也很多。但是养鱼业也可以成为生态友好型产业。
8．推理判断题。根据第一段的“‘The fact that wrld seafd supplies cntinue t increase at all is due almst entirely t the phenmenal grwth in aquaculture,’ says Anne Platt McGinn，a research assciate at the Wrldwatch Institute. (世界观察研究所的研究助理Anne Platt McGinn说；“世界海产品供应持续增加的事实几乎完全是由于水产养殖的显著增长。”) ”可推断出，水产养殖的增加带来了世界海产品供应的增加。故选D。
9．细节理解题。根据第二段的“Bitechnlgy is cntributing t high-yield aquaculture thrugh transgenics—the transfer f genes frm ne species t anther. (生物技术通过转基因——将基因从一个物种转移到另一个物种——促进了高产水产养殖。)”可知，生物技术专家利用转基因技术来促进海产品的高产。故选B。
10．细节理解题。根据第三段的“Fish farms need prtein feed, and abut 17% f cean fish, an verharvested wild resurce, becmes fd fr farm-raised fish. (养鱼场需要蛋白质饲料，而大约17%的海洋鱼类(一种过度捕捞的野生资源)成为了养殖鱼类的食物。)”可知，目前海产品产业造成的问题之一是它导致了对海洋鱼类的过度消费。故选C。
11．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Fish farming des nt have t be an inefficient r plluting industry. McGinn predicts that many cnsumers will chse sustainably prduced fish in the future，just as they prefer dlphin-free tuna(金枪鱼)tday (养鱼业不一定是一个效率低下或污染严重的行业。McGinn预测，未来许多消费者将选择可持续生产的鱼类，就像他们今天更喜欢对海豚友好的金枪鱼一样。)可知，McGinn认为养鱼业不一定是一个效率低下或污染严重的行业，并用消费者更喜欢吃对海豚友好的金枪鱼举例，因此推断“just as they prefer dlphin-free tuna tday.”意思是说，养鱼也可以改进为生态友好型产业。故选B。
12．C 13．B 14．A 15．C
【导语】本文是说明文。文章介绍人工智能提供的答案可能是错的，研究人员对此做了一些分析调查进行验证。斯坦福大学的研究人员对于人工智能驱动的搜索是否是正确的方法表示疑虑。
12．细节理解题。根据第二段“T investigate these tls, Nelsn and his clleagues fed 1, 450 ppular searches int Bing Chat and ther such tls, including NeevaAl and PerplexityAl. (为了调查这些工具，Nelsn和他的同事们在Bing Chat和其他类似的工具中输入了1450个流行搜索，包括NeevaAI和PerplexityAl。)可知，Nelsn的团队是通过比较了不同公司的结果检查人工智能搜索工具的。故选C。
13．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Aravind Srinlvas, a c-funder f PerplexityAl, says he welcmes the study. ‘The results are similar t the wrk the cmpany has cnducted, and imprvements are pssible.

19．根据上文“◆ Include literary devices. Literary devices like metaphr and simile add variety and depth t yur petry.(◆使用文学技巧。像隐喻和明喻这样的文学手法为你的诗歌增添了多样性和深度)”可知，本句承接上文说明文学技巧的作用，E选项中them对应上文literary devices。故E选项“使用它们可以让你的诗在读者中脱颖而出”符合语境，故选E。
20．根据后文“Pay attentin t hw each line f yur pem flws int the next. Keep a pen clse by s yu can mark any lines r wrds that sund awkward r jumbled.(注意你的每一行诗是如何衔接到下一行的。在手边放一支笔，这样你就可以标记任何听起来别扭或混乱的一行或单词)”可知，后文提到标记听起来别扭的地方或混乱的一行或单词，即注意单词的发音，B选项中sund对应后文中sund。故B选项“注意单词在页面上的发音”符合语境，故选B。

43．考查代词。句意：当爱吃小麦的人每周五次把主食换成大米时，他们发现男性患正常体重肥胖的风险降低了36.5%，女性患正常体重中心型肥胖的风险降低了20.5%。根据句意可知，此处用they指代前文中的wheat lvers。故填they。
44．考查过去分词。句意：研究人员得出结论，与偏爱小麦相比，偏爱大米，或者从小麦换成大米，可能会降低总体脂肪积累的风险，尤其是对体重正常的人来说。分析句子可知，cmpare为非谓语动词作状语，cmpare与主语a preference之间是动宾关系，用过去分词短语作状语。故填cmpared。
45．考查副词。句意：研究人员得出结论，与偏爱小麦相比，偏爱大米，或者从小麦换成大米，可能会降低总体脂肪积累的风险，尤其是对体重正常的人来说。此处要用副词形式especially修饰作状语，强调空格后的内容。故填especially。

47．
I was certain they wuld fail t keep this cntract. Hwever, things didn’t g n as I expected. The kids in my class behaved as if they had changed. As the weeks prgressed, each mrning the kids practised singing, wrked n reading music, learned musical terms, practiced rhythm and marked changes, prepared cncert music, and went ver and ver the three cntest numbers.
When the day finally arrived, the kids felt ready t win the cntest. As my chir went n the stage, I muthed, “Smile!” They lked cnfident. I tk a deep breath, and we began. They perfrmed masterfully. Tw very lng hurs later the results were psted. I std frzen, staring at the list in disbelief: a First Place award with the highest marks f all. All arund kids were screaming and embracing. Warm tears wet my cheeks. I was surrunded by kids wh had a dream-kids wh refused t give up—kids wh taught me t never dubt the pssibility f success fr any student r any class ever again.
【导语】本文以故事发展为线索。讲述了作者的唱诗班因为教育政策改变，导致唱诗班的优秀学生变少，剩余一些音乐资质不好的学生，但学生们对待音乐的热情高涨，强烈要求参加比赛，虽然我勉强答应，但担心比赛结果会打击孩子们的自尊心，然而孩子们并没有就此放弃，于是我决心与他们一起迎接挑战，经过不懈的努力，最终取得第一名的成绩。
【详解】1. 段落续写
①由第一段首句内容“我确信他们不会遵守这个约定。”可知，第以段可描写作者吃惊地看到孩子们努力练习的过程。
②由第二段句首内容“当这一天终于到来的时候，孩子们觉得自己已经准备好赢得比赛了。”可知，第二段描述孩子们带着作者的鼓励信心满满地的参加比赛，并取得了令人难以置信的第一名。孩子们永不放弃的精神使我明白了，永远不要怀疑任何学生或班级取得成功的可能性。
