When Lina was awoken by the sound of thunder, she was alone on the island. The air was cool and bullfrogs
croaked. It was that brief moment when the summer sun had set but the stars hadn't yet appeared. Lina rubbed her
eyes and looked around.
“Hello?” she called. “Celia? Marie”
There was no response.The moon was rising now, shedding light on the island. They had always called it “Forgotten Island” because no
one but they seemed to remember its existence. It wasn’t on any of the maps they could find, and even the forest
rangers didn’t know about it. Lina loved that the island, hidden in a heavily-wooded side stream of the river, was a
secret between the three friends — her, Celia, and Marie.
But now Lina was here alone, and it was night. Worse still, it was her own fault.
“Come on, Lina, let Marie row the boat.” Celia had said. Marie was two years older than Lina, but she was a
hopeless rower. That’s why Lina refused and rowed the boat to the island. The argument that followed the refusal
took the usual form. Celia took Marie’s side, as she always did. Lina had exploded and yelled at them to just leave. So
they got back in the boat and left.
A bolt of lightning crossed the darkened sky, accompanied by a deafening thunder clap. The storm was here. As
the first cold raindrop slid down her neck, Lina’s mind returned to her current problem. She was stuck here by herself.
She just hoped she didn’t become as forgotten as the island. The thought of it sent a chill (寒意) down her back.
Suddenly, Lina spotted something in the water. It was a boat, and inside it were Marie, Celia, and Marie's dad,
who was steering through the fast flowing waters. As the boat approached, they saw Lina waving and the worried
expressions on their faces turned to relief.
In her excitement Lina jumped into the river. Only once she was in the icy water did she remember how fast the
water was moving. Luckily a strong arm reached into the water and pulled her out. She smiled weakly at Marie’s dad
and, without a word, hugged Celia and Marie. They didn’t seem to mind becoming wet.
4. What can be inferred about the island?
A. It is very near the ocean.
B. It is a popular place for boating.
C. It is surrounded by thick forest.
D. It has never been reached by others.
5. Why did Lina get angry?
A. Marie would not help row the boat.
B. Lina was left alone on the island.
C. Marie didn't know how to row the boat.
D. Celia supported Marie in the disagreement.
6. What caused Lina to feel a chill?
A. Her shame about the unnecessary argument.
B. The first raindrops of the approaching storm.C. The idea that no one would come to save her.
D. The drop in temperature as the sun went down.
7. Who pulled Lina out of the water?
A. Marie’s father.
B. Lina herself.
C. Marie.
D. CeliA.
【答案】4. C 5. D 6. C 7. A
【解析】

CWhen you don’t have a car and need to get around, are you more likely to call for an Uber or Lyft, or a cab? Last
Friday, Lyft — the ride-sharing company, went public as its stocks (股票) started trading on the market. Lyft has
become the first big initial public offering of the “gig economy” age. While the company is not making profits yet, it
is changing the meaning of work. What is gig economy and what makes it so appealing?
Gig works are independent contracts (合同) or part-time jobs such as Uber. In the gig economy, companies hire
independent contractors instead of full-time employees. This is different from traditional companies where full-time
workers hold a lifetime career. In the past, only small companies hired contractors, while today, employers like
Amazon and Google rely on temporary workforce. These companies save costs as they are not legally required to
provide healthcare benefits, retirement savings or paid time off to gig workers.
Gig work appeals to different people for different reasons. For some, it affords flexible timings and for otliers
who are looking for full-time jobs, it provides a source of income to support themselves. Some people work a
full-time job and supplement (补充) their salary with gig jobs such as driving for Uber or Lyft.
Joining the gig economy may be simple, but maintaining a steady career is easier said than done. Gig work
comes with unsteady pay and workloads. You're your own boss. It sounds fun, but when you have no self-control and
an unsteady job, you might splurge all your money the first week and live on bread pieces for the rest of the month!
Besides a strong sense of responsibility, gig workers have to stay up to date to get companies to hire them.
Despite the challenges gig workers face, nearly 60 million Americans are part of this workforce. As this number
grows, we have to see how society and companies adapt to this new world of work!
8. What can be learnt about Lyft from the passage?
A. It has built up a large fortune.
B. It marks the arrival of gig economy age.
C. It employs a fixed number of full-time workers.
D. It appeals to people as a means of public transport.
9. Who are most likely to become gig workers?
A. People seeking for a steady income.
B. Those desperate to get paid vacations.
C. People in need of flexible working hours.
D. Those concerned about retirement accounts.
10. What does the underlined word “splurge” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Spend money freely. B. Deposit money automatically.
C. Earn money quickly. D. Allocate money randomly.11. What is the message mainly conveyed in the passage?
A. Gig workers have to face some potential challenges.
B. Gig workers have to possess some much-needed qualities.
C. The appearance of gig companies will solve the job problems.
D. People should adjust to new work trends with the rise of gig companies.
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. A 11. D
【解析】
本文为一篇说明文。文章介绍了一种新的职业经济模式——零工经济,人人都可以成为自己的老板。
【8 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段 Lyft has become the first big initial public offering of the “gig economy” age. Lyft 已经
成为“零工经济”时代的第一个大型公开募股。可知,Lyft 标志着“零工经济”时代的到来。故选 B 项。
【9 题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段 For some, it affords flexible timings and for otliers who are looking for full-time jobs, it
provides a source of income to support themselves.对一些人来说,它提供了灵活的时间安排,对那些正在寻找
全职工作的人来说,它提供了一个额外收入来源来养活自己。因此,需要弹性工作时间的人最有可能成为
工作人员。故选 C 项。
【10 题详解】
词义猜测题。结合后文 and live on bread pieces for the rest of the month!然后在这个月剩下的时间里靠面包生
活!由此推测前文 splurge all your money 意为“挥霍完了所有的钱”,在之后的日子里只能靠面包生活。A
项“自由花钱”符合语境。故选 A 项。
【11 题详解】
主旨大意题。结合最后一段 As this number grows, we have to see how society and companies adapt to this new
world of work!随着这个数字的增长,我们必须看到社会和公司如何适应这个新的工作世界!及结合全文讲
述“零工经济”的兴起,文章传达出随着“零工经济”公司的兴起,人们应该适应新的工作趋势。故选 D
项。
D
Just last month,AI-generated art arrived on the auction (拍卖) stage of Christie’s, proving that artificial
intelligence can not only be creative but also produce world-class works of art — another significant AI milestone
blurring the line between human and machine.
Naturally, the news sparked off debates about whether the work produced by Paris-based art collective Obvious
could really be called art at all. Popular opinion among creatives is that art is a process by which human beings express some ideas or emotions, filter them through personal experience and set them against a broader cultural
context. The story raised additional questions about ownership. In this circumstance,who can really be named as
the author? The algorithm (算法) itself or the team behind it?
At GumGum, an AI company that focuses on computer vision, we wanted to explore the intersection of AI and
art by devising a Turing Test of our own in association with Rutgers University’s Art and Artificial Intelligence Lab
and Cloudpainter, an artificially intelligent painting robot. We were keen to see whether AI can,in fact, replicate (复
制) the intent and imagination of traditional artists, and we wanted to explore the potential impact of AI on the
creative sector.
To do this,we enlisted a broad collection of diverse artists from traditional pain-on-canvas artists to 3-D
rendering and modeling artists alongside Pindar Van Arman — a classically trained artist who has been coding art
robots for 15 years. Van Arman was tasked with using his Cloudpainter machine to create pieces of art based on the
same data set as the more traditional artists. This data set was a collection of art by 20th century American Abstract
Expressionists. Then, we asked them to document the process, showing us their preferred tools and telling us how
they came to their final work.
Amazingly, while at face value the AI artwork was indistinguishable from that of the more traditional artists, the
test revealed that the creative spark and ultimate agency behind creating a work of art is still very much human. Even
though the Cloudpainter machine has evolved over time to become a highly intelligent system capable of making
creative decisions of its own, the final piece of work could only be described as a collaboration (合作) between
human and machine. Van Arman served as more of an “art director for the painting”.
As AI becomes an unstoppable force, it raises some difficult questions about the future role of humans in an
increasingly automated world. Instead of worrying about AI’s threat to human creative supremacy, the future will be
about accepting new technologies and the possibilities it brings for speeding up the process. It’s better to think of AI
as your next creative assistant; beautiful pieces of work can be produced in collaboration with it.
12. According to popular opinion, the AI-generated work_______.
A. should have been based on personal experience
B. was set against a broader cultural context
C. couldn’t be considered art at all
D. expresses no idea or emotion
13. What did the experiment at GumGum show?
A. AI artworks could be easily identified
B. AI artworks could show human emotions.C. AI had trouble making sensible decisions.
D. AI couldn’t complete a work independently.
14. Which of the following statements would the author agree with?
A. Beautiful pieces cannot be works of AI.
B. AI could be an advanced tool for artists.
C. AI could challenge the supremacy of humans.
D. New technologies can pose a danger to humans.
15. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Can AI Create True Art? B. Can AI Threaten Humans?
C. Will Human Art Disappear? D. Are AI Artworks Distinguishable?
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【分析】
本文为一篇说明文。文章介绍了人工智能机器人也能够进行绘画创作。
【12 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段 Popular opinion among creatives is that art is a process by which human beings express
some ideas or emotions, filter them through personal experience and set them against a broader cultural context.创作
者普遍认为,艺术是一个过程,通过这个过程,人类表达一些思想或情感,通过个人经验加以过滤,并将
其置于更广泛的文化背景中。因此,根据普遍的观点,人工智能的作品不能被认为是艺术。故选 C 项。
【13 题详解】
细 节 理 解 题 。 根 据 第 四 段 To do this, we enlisted a broad collection of diverse artists from traditional
pain-on-canvas artists to 3-D rendering and modeling artists alongside Pindar Van Arman — a classically trained
artist who has been coding art robots for 15 years.为了做到这一点,我们征集了大量不同的艺术家,从传统的画
布上的痛苦艺术家到三维渲染和建模艺术家,还有品达•范•阿曼,他是一位受过古典训练的艺术家,已经为
艺术机器人编码 15 年。可知,AI 不能独立完成一项工作,需要结合人工编程。故选 D 项。
【14 题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段 Van Arman served as more of an “art director for the painting”.范阿曼更像是一位
“绘画艺术总监”。可知,人工智能机器人更可能是艺术家的高级工具。故选B 项。
【15 题详解】
主旨大意题。结合全文可知,文章分析了 AI 只能机器人能够进行绘画,但是 AI 所作的画并不是真正意义
上的艺术。A 项“人工智能能创造真正的艺术吗?”适合做本文最佳标题。 故选 A 项。【点睛】细节理解题主要考查考生对文章中某一些特定细节或文章的重要实事的理解能力。它一般包括直
接理解题和语义理解题两种。直接理解题的答案与原文直接挂钩,从阅读材料中可以找到。以本文第 2 小
题为例,本题运用定位法:根据倒数第二段 Van Arman served as more of an “art director for the painting”.范阿
曼更像是一位“绘画艺术总监”。可知,人工智能机器人更可能是艺术家的高级工具。故选B 项。
第二节(共 5 小题;每小 2 分,满分 10 分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的七个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。
Putting children in daycare helps working parents take their minds off childcare. ___16___
How daycare negatively affects children is related to many factors. One study has suggested that some children
who spend long hours in daycare centers experience more stress than those who spend more time in a setting with a
mother.
Another study has shown that children who are shy have a higher level of the hormone cortisol (皮质醇) which
is released when an individual shows signs of stress. ___17___ And as a result the child may not mix well with the
other children and the teachers at the daycare center, a situation that can cause stress.
Another negative impact of daycare is that there is less communication between a mother and her child.
___18___ So it is essential for a child to develop a deep bond with his or her mother, since this will lay the foundation
for all the relationships he or she will form later on in life. Children who spend a lot of time with their mothers
experience healthy social and emotional development, while long hours in daycare can disrupt this bonding. Children
who lose out on precious mother-child bonding are observed to have behavioral problems as they grow older.
Children in daycare centers also feel unprotected compared to children at home. In a daycare center, when one
caregiver attends to more than one child at the same time, she may not be able to look deeply into why a child is
mixing well or not. ___19___ Another negative aspect of daycare is that children there are more likely to fall ill if
they come in contact with sick children.
___20___ Well-maintained daycare centers contribute a great deal to the overall development of a child by
providing a structured environment. Children become more social by interacting with other children of the same age,
and learn new activities that are not always available if they arc brought up only at home.
A. But daycare has its disadvantages.
B. Look for a daycare center that is well-maintained.
C. However, the advantages of daycare cannot be ignored.
D. This is because a shy child will not open up freely in public.
E. Babies become extremely attached to their primary caregivers.F. In such cases, a child may become either completely quiet or aggressive.
G. You can cut the time in daycare centers by making alternative childcare arrangements.
【答案】16. A 17. D
18. E 19. F
20. C
【解析】

∧Three years ago I fail in an important exam in my life and became the student in an ordinary school.
Disappointing as I felt at the shabby campus and the poor equipment, I found the teachers patiently. Besides, I
enjoyed the friendly atmosphere in class. I decided make the best of it. I worked hard but got along well with my
teachers and classmate. Whenever I had difficulties, you were always available. Soon I became one of the most best
students in my class.
My experience tells me that it’s not what you are given but how you make use of it which determines who you
are.
【答案】第一处: fail→failed
第二处: the→a
第三处: Disappointing→Disappointed
第四处: patiently→patient
第五处: decided 后面加 to
第六处: but→and
第七处: classmate→classmates
第八处: you→they
第九处: 去掉 most
第十处: which→that
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。文章作者通过自己的亲身经历说明了不是你被给予了什么,而是你如何利用它,
决定了你是谁。
【详解】第一处:考查时态。句意:三年前,我在一次重要的考试中失败了,成为了一名普通学校的学生。
根据 Three years ago,可知是发生在过去的事情,用一般过去时,所以 fail 改成 failed。
第二处:考查冠词。句意:三年前,我在一次重要的考试中失败了,成为了普通学校的一名学生。泛指“一
名学生”,student 的首字母发音是辅音,所以用不定冠词 a,所以 the 改成 a。
第三处:考查形容词。句意:虽然我对破旧的校园和简陋的设备感到失望,但我发现老师们很有耐心。v+ing
修饰物,v+ed 修饰人,这里修饰人,所以 Disappointing 改成 Disappointed。
第四处:考查形容词。句意:虽然我对破旧的校园和简陋的设备感到失望,但我发现老师们很有耐心。find
sb/sth +形容词,形容词作宾语补足语。所以 patiently 改成 patient。
第五处:考查固定短语。句意:我决定充分利用它。decide to do sth. 决定做某事,该句型是固定短语,所以
decided 后面加 to。第六处:考查连词。句意:我工作努力,并且与我的老师和同学们相处得很好。文中表示并列关系,所以 but
改成 and。
第七处:考查名词单复数。句意:我工作努力,并且与我的老师和同学们相处得很好。“我的同学们”是
复数意义,用名词复数,所以 classmate 改成 classmates。
第八处:考查代词。句意:每当我有困难时,他们总是在我身边。文中表示“他们”,所以you 改成 they。
第九处:考查最高级。句意:很快,我就成为了班里最好的学生之一。best 已经是最高级,所以去掉 most。
第十处:考查强调句。句意:我的经验告诉我,不是你被给予了什么,而是你如何利用它,决定了你是谁。
这里含有一个强调句,强调句的基本结构是 it is / was + 被强调部分 + that + 句子的其他成分,所以 which
改成 that。
【点睛】小题 10 考查强调句。判断是否是强调句的一个简便的方法就是:把 It was,that 结构去掉,如果
句子结构完整就是强调句;如果句子结构不完整,那句子中就缺少了成分,可能是状语也可能是从句 。It was
not yet eight o’clock when he arrived home.这里把 It was,that 结构去掉后,句子为: not yet eight o’clock he
arrived home. 句子不完整,前后成分没有联系;如果句子是 at not yet eight o’clock he arrived home. 句子中
前面的部分做了状语,说明强调的是状语,则是强调句。这里 when 做时间状语,前面的句子是主句。

5:00 pm,next Tuesday.非谓语动词的运用;If we are lucky enough to have you join us, please bear it in mind that
you should wear a pair of sneakers that fit well.运用了条件状语从句。全文中没有中国式英语的句式, 显示了很
高的驾驭英语的能力。另外, 文章思路清晰、层次分明, 上下句转换自然, 为文章增色添彩。
