An ld, wise man wh grew sicker felt his jurney n Earth was cming t an end. Hwever, his sn was still a yung man and had yet t reach his full ptential. And s the father tk it upn himself t teach his sn the ways f the wrld.
The ld man handed the yung man a watch, a family heirlm(传家宝) passed dwn fr generatins. “Ask the jeweler hw much it's wrth. But dn't accept any ffer. Instead, cme back hme with the watch.” The by did as he was instructed. The jeweler said it was nly wrth S100 as he'd have a hard time finding a buyer.

【导语】这是一篇记叙文，讲述一位生病的老人通过让儿子带着传家宝手表去不同地方估价，来教导儿子关于价值和自我价值的道理。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段““Then take the watch t the pawnshp (当铺). See hw much yu can get fr the watch.” In his mind, the by disagreed. But he didn't want t argue with his father in pr health s he did the jb anyway. He even went abve and beynd t see tw friends wrking in pawnshps nly t be tld the watch had scratches, which even he didn't ntice after carrying it all day. (“那就把表拿到当铺去。看看你能拿多少。” 男孩心里不同意，但他不想和生病的父亲争论，所以他还是去了。他甚至多走了一段路，去见两个在当铺工作的朋友，结果被告知手表有划痕，这连他自己都没注意到，尽管他整天都带着它。)”可知，男孩的父亲要求男孩去当铺看看表值多少钱，在当铺工作的朋友告知男孩手表有划痕，再结合下文博物馆给出的高价可知，男孩被告知手表有划痕的原因是因为他可能得不到一个合适的价格。故选C项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第五段“After meeting his father's friend, he ran back hme t tell his ld man the gd news, “Yu wn't believe it! We finally gt an amazing ffer. She said she never thught she'd see ne in persn.

(但总有一个你可以去的地方，在那里每个人都会看到你真正的价值。)”可以推断出，这个老人是智慧的。故选A项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“But there's always a place yu can g t where everyne will see yur real value. (但总有一个你可以去的地方，在那里每个人都会看到你真正的价值。)”可知，我们从这个故事中学到的是相信自己，直到有人发现你的价值。故选C项。

When yu think f the mst innvative (创新的) rganisatins, chances are that yur mind will immediately g t Apple, Ggle, r perhaps OpenAI, the cmpany behind ChatGPT that is leading the AI revlutin. But there is ne ther rganisatin ding exceptinal wrk: Transprt fr Lndn (TfL), a tube cnstantly testing ut new technlgies fr Lndn's transprtatin experience.
Willesden Green, a suburban statin in Nrth West Lndn was just transfrmed int a“smart”statin. What TfL did was take the CCTV (闭路电视) cameras and plug them int an AI image recgnitin system—which turned what previusly had been rdinary vide recrdings int intelligent cameras, capable f identifying what was happening inside the statin.
TfL is at the cutting edge and significantly eased the wrklad f Tube staff. Fr example, the system detected fallen passengers, warning staff via iPads t assist them. It als sptted peple standing t clse t the platfrm edge, reminding staff f ptential danger. Fr irrespnsible behavir, staff culd make annuncements. The cameras als identified wheelchair users and thse waiting t lng, allwing staff t ffer assistance. TfL's frward-thinking apprach in embracing technlgy is praisewrthy, imprving public safety and prviding a mre smth travel experience in Lndn.
The highlight f this system is its ability t detect unwanted behavir. The AI cameras are designed t identify ptential threats like knives, guns, and ticket barrier vilatrs(违反者). Hwever, I'm particularly impressed with hw it recgnizes “aggressive behavir”. This is hard t d, because describing t a cmputer what that lks like is tricky. Instead, TfL prgrammed the system t warn staff if anyne in the statin raises bth f their arms at the same time, as this is a gesture ften cnnected with threatening behavir.
Hwever, it isn't withut cntrversy (争议)—it des cause uncmfrtableness frm a civil liberties. The prblem with AI identifying images means that it culd just as easily spt flags r plitical symbls, fr example. And yu can imagine hw it culd be used t clsely mnitr staff in an unpleasant way.
8. Why are Apple, Ggle, and OpenAI mentined in paragraph 1?
A. T cmpare their strengths.B. T stress the tube's innvatin.
C. T shw the ppularity f the tube.D. T share the travel experience.
9. What des paragraph 3 mainly talk abut?
A. Hw ppular AI is becming in Tfl.B. What AI des t detect passengers in Tfl.
C. Hw AI reduces wrk burden in Tfl.D. Why AI is influencing TIL s much.
10. What des the underlined wrd “tricky” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Challenging.B. Easy.C. Unachievable.D. Perfect.
11. What is the best title f the passage?
A. Is it wrthy t apply AI t TfL?B. AI des mre gd than harm.
C. TIL is becming safer and safer.D. TЛL is smarter with AI.
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. A 11. D

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章首先提及一些知名的创新组织，引出伦敦交通局（TfL）在创新方面的出色表现。介绍了 TfL 将伦敦西北郊区的威尔斯登格林地铁站改造成“智能”站，通过将 CCTV 摄像机接入 AI 图像识别系统，减轻了工作人员的工作量，能检测各种情况并提供帮助。该系统的亮点是能检测不良行为，还提到了 TfL 这一做法存在争议，比如可能会引发公民自由方面的担忧。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“When yu think f the mst innvative (创新的) rganisatins, chances are that yur mind will immediately g t Apple, Ggle, r perhaps OpenAI, the cmpany behind ChatGPT that is leading the AI revlutin. But there is ne ther rganisatin ding exceptinal wrk: Transprt fr Lndn (TfL), a tube cnstantly testing ut new technlgies fr Lndn's transprtatin experience.(当你想到最具创新性的组织时，你可能会立刻想到苹果、谷歌，或者可能是ChatGPT背后的公司OpenAI，它正在引领人工智能革命。但还有一家组织也在做着杰出的工作：伦敦交通局(TfL)，一个不断测试新技术以改善伦敦交通体验的地铁系统。)”可知，第一段提到苹果、谷歌和OpenAI是为了强调地铁的创新。故选B项。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“TfL is at the cutting edge and significantly eased the wrklad f Tube staff. Fr example, the system detected fallen passengers, warning staff via iPads t assist them. It als sptted peple standing t clse t the platfrm edge, reminding staff f ptential danger. Fr irrespnsible behavir, staff culd make annuncements. The cameras als identified wheelchair users and thse waiting t lng, allwing staff t ffer assistance. TfL's frward-thinking apprach in embracing technlgy is praisewrthy, imprving public safety and prviding a mre smth travel experience in Lndn.(TfL处于领先地位，大大减轻了地铁工作人员的工作量。例如，该系统检测到乘客摔倒，通过iPad提醒工作人员提供帮助。它还发现有人站得离站台边缘太近，提醒工作人员注意潜在的危险。对于不负责任的行为，员工可以发布公告。摄像头还识别出轮椅使用者和等待时间过长的人，让员工提供帮助。TfL在拥抱技术方面的前瞻性方法是值得称赞的，它提高了公共安全，为伦敦提供了更顺畅的旅行体验。)”可知，本段主要讲述了人工智能如何减轻TfL的工作负担。故选C项。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段“Hwever, I'm particularly impressed with hw it recgnizes “aggressive behavir”. This is hard t d, because describing t a cmputer what that lks like is…. Instead, TfL prgrammed the system t warn staff if anyne in the statin raises bth f their arms at the same time, as this is a gesture ften cnnected with threatening behavir.(然而，我特别印象深刻的是它是如何识别“攻击性行为”的。这很难做到，因为向计算机描述这种行为的样子是……。相反，TfL对系统进行了编程，如果车站里有人同时举起双臂，就会警告工作人员，因为这通常是一种与威胁行为相关的姿势。)”可推知，此处表示向计算机描述这种行为的样子是有挑战性的，即划线词意为“有挑战性的”。故选A项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“But there is ne ther rganisatin ding exceptinal wrk: Transprt fr Lndn (TfL), a tube cnstantly testing ut new technlgies fr Lndn's transprtatin experience.(但还有一家组织也在做着杰出的工作：伦敦交通局(TfL)，一个不断测试新技术以改善伦敦交通体验的地铁系统。)”结合文章介绍了伦敦交通局(TfL)利用人工智能来提高公共安全，为伦敦提供了更顺畅的旅行体验，以及人工智能在TfL中的作用。由此可知，D项“TЛL is smarter with AI(有了AI，伦敦交通局变得更智能)”适合用作本文标题。故选D项。

Hw much we enjy music may partly cme dwn t ur genetic (基因的) make-up, accrding t a study f thusands f twins. The pleasure peple get frm a tune is cnnected t its effects n ur emtinal respnses and ability t frm scial cnnectins. The degree f enjyment differs frm persn t persn, but little is knwn abut why.
T investigate the rle f genetics, Bignardi, a sychlinguistic expert and his clleagues lked at mre than 9000 twins in the research. Abut 3400 were identical(相同的) and 5600 nn-identical. The frmer share the same genme(基因组), while nn-identical twins share nly half their genmes, as is the case with any nn-twin bilgical siblings. All the twins in the study, between 37 and 64 years, were raised in the same husehlds and s had similar envirnments while grwing up. This made it easier t srt ut genetic cntributins.
The researchers first gt the twins t cmplete the Barcelna Music Reward Questinnaire, which fcuses n hw much pleasure they get frm music. The team then analysed the relative cntributins f genetics and envirnment t musical enjyment amng the twins. This shwed that genetics seems t play a great rle in influencing hw much pleasure music brings, with the identical twins being mre than twice as similar in this characteristic as the nn-identical nes.
Bignardi and his team als tested the participants' abilities t pick up between different meldies, rhythms and tnes, with previus research linking genetics t musical ability. They fund that the influence genetics has n enjying music isn't necessarily linked t musical talent.
The study is inspiring, says Peter at the University f Cambridge. “It's evident that musical ability might have a genetic basis; it accunts fr why sme peple seem t pssess a gift fr music that enables them t develp amazing skills frm a yung age. ” Hwever, it is less bvius that the degree f pleasure frm listening t music is influenced by genes, s it is interesting the study finds this effect, he says.
The results add a new piece t the puzzle f why music has such a pwerful effect n certain peple and pen up new pssibilities fr using inter-individual differences t understand the bilgy f a key aspect f human behavir, as the research shws.
12. What was the main purpse f the study f thusands f twins?
A. T assess the twins' musical abilities.
B. T test the Barcelna Music Reward Questinnaire.
C. T understand the influence f genetics n musical pleasure.
D. T cmpare identical and nn-identical twins’ envirnments.
13. Why are twins raised frm the same envirnment chsen in the research?
A. T figure ut the cntributins f genetics.B. T shw the bnd f gene and envirnment.
C. T analyze genetic effect in musical abilities.D. T intrduce the backgrund f the research.
14. What's Peter's attitude t the research?
A. Negative.B. Psitive.C. Dubtful.D. Wrried.
15. Which aspect f the research can we learn frm the last paragraph?
A. Its applicatins.B. Its cnclusins.C. Its limitatins.D. Its imprtance.

It's always easier t get inspired and push yurself ut f yur cmfrt zne when yu're nt alne. Find a like-minded partner and yur exercise will be that much easier. And, get creative.(回想起来，我年轻时的健身计划之所以有趣，是因为我和不同的朋友一起做了很多活动，或者参加了有很强的社交活动的课程。当你不是一个人的时候，总是更容易获得灵感，把自己从舒适区推出去。找到一个志同道合的伙伴，你的锻炼就会容易得多。而且，要有创意)”可知，接下来的内容提到了“与不同朋友一起进行活动或参加社交性强的课程”，因此，此选项作为段落的主题句，引出了下面的具体建议。故A选项“使其社交化”符合语境。故选A。
【17题详解】
根据上文“Find a like-minded partner and yur exercise will be that much easier. And, get creative.(找到一个志同道合的伙伴，你的锻炼就会容易得多。而且，要有创意)”可知，本句为本段最后一句，故承接上文，举例说明如何是有创意的做法。故D选项“对于户外活动，你的伴侣甚至可以是你的宠物狗”符合语境，故选D。
【18题详解】
根据标题“Remve the Pressure(减轻压力)”以及上文“Setting small gals helps remve pressure that a seemingly unrealistic gal might cause.(设定小目标有助于消除看似不切实际的目标可能带来的压力)”可知，上文提到了“设定小目标有助于消除任何压力或不知所措的感觉”，推测本句与设定小目标以减轻压力的建议相吻合。E选项“特别是如果你刚开始锻炼，目标可以很小”符合语境。故选E。
【19题详解】
根据标题“Treat Yurself(自我奖励)”以及上文“Only allw yurself t earn the reward if yu cmplete exercise.(只允许自己在完成锻炼后获得奖励)”可知，上文提到了“只有在你完成锻炼后才允许自己获得奖励”，推测本句与锻炼后期待某种奖励以激励自己有关。G选项“在每次锻炼前留下咖啡之类的东西，这可以给你的锻炼带来额外的灵感”符合语境。故选G。
【20题详解】
根据上文“Mst f us spend mst f ur day inside, s instead f taking n an indr wrkut, exercise utdrs fr a change f scenery — and additinal physical and mental benefits.(我们大多数人一天中的大部分时间都在室内度过，所以与其在室内锻炼，不如在室外锻炼，换一换风景——这对身心都有好处)”以及后文“Depressin may be linked t separatin frm the natural wrld. Getting utside is a cure, which can heal, release stress, bring jy, and restre yur spirits. Getting sunlight, which cntains vitamin D, is als a gd md bster.(抑郁症可能与与自然世界的分离有关。外出是一种治疗，它可以治愈，释放压力，带来快乐，恢复你的精神。晒太阳，其中含有维生素D，也是一种很好的情绪助推器)”可知，这一段讨论的是“户外锻炼”的好处，提到了“户外活动对身心都有好处”这一优势，而且与后文最后两句形成总分关系。C选项“另外，它能改善心情”符合语境。故选C。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了傣族的泼水节，包括其历史、庆祝方式以及意义。
【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：泼水节，也被称为宋干节，深受中国傣族和东南亚国家的喜爱，是中国傣族文化中一项独特的活动。be knwn as 意为“被称为；被认为是”，此处用过去分词短语作后置定语，逻辑主语为The Water-Splashing Festival，故填 knwn。
【37题详解】
考查冠词。句意：同上。此处泛指“一项独特的活动”，unique 是以辅音音素开头的单词，故填 a。
【38题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：在中国傣族中庆祝的这个节日，有着可以追溯到数千年前的历史。date back t为固定短语，意为“追溯到”，分析句子结构，空白处在句子中作定语，使用非谓语动词。此处histry与date之间是逻辑上的主谓关系，用现在分词作后置定语，故填dating。
【39题详解】
考查动词时态。句意：它标志着傣历新年的开始，象征着从冬天到春天的过渡。因句子表示的是一个客观情况，此处用一般现在时，主语It是第三人称单数，故填marks。
【40题详解】
考查副词。句意：节日通常在四月举行，参与者们会互相泼水，这是一个被认为可以驱除厄运并带来好运的传统。此处用副词typically修饰动词falls，故填typically。
【41题详解】
考查介词。句意：在这个欢乐的时刻，一个人被泼的水越多，就被认为会获得越多的好运。n this ccasin为固定短语，表示“在这个时刻”，故填On。
【42题详解】
考查形容词比较级。句意：同上。分析句子结构，本句使用了“the + 比较级，the + 比较级”结构，表示“越……，越……”，符合句意，所以空白处填形容词的比较级，故填greater。
【43题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：庆祝活动伴随着欢快的音乐、传统舞蹈和热闹的游行，营造出节日和欢乐的气氛。此处是非限制性定语从句，先行词是前面整个句子，关系词在从句中作主语，故填which。
【44题详解】
考查名词。句意：泼水节不仅是对生命、团结和精神更新的庆祝，也是傣族丰富文化和充满活力精神的反映。结合空格前的a可知空白处在句子中做表语，使用名词，故填celebratin。
【45题详解】
