【答案】l.B2.A3.C

【解析】

【導語】這是一篇記敘文。本文節(jié)選自歐?亨利的短篇小說《麥琪的禮物》。

【1題詳解】

細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段uTomorrowwasChristmas,andshehadonly$1.87tobuyherhusbandJimapresent.

Shehadbeensavingeverypennyshecouldformonths,skippingsmalljoysandpinchingpennieswherever

possible,butitwasstillfarfromencugh.（明天就是圣誕節(jié)j',可她只有1.87美元給丈夫吉姆買禮物。好幾個

月來，她盡可能地省下每一分錢，舍棄了那些小小的樂趣，處處精打細算，可這筆錢還是遠遠不夠。）”可

知，她想給丈夫吉姆買禮物卻錢遠遠不夠，因此難過沮喪。故選B。

【2題詳解】

詞句猜測題。根據(jù)第三段“Shepulleddownherlongbrownhair,lettingitfalltoherkneeslikeacascadeof

brownwaters.（她放下一頭棕色的長發(fā)，發(fā)絲垂落到膝蓋，宛如一簾褐色的水流。）”可知，句中將

長發(fā)比作“棕色水流的cascadeM,waters（水流）對應waterfall（瀑布），因此cascade意為“瀑布”。故

選A。

【3題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段“Shewantedtobuyhimsomethingfineandrare,somethingtrulyworthyofbeing

ownedbyJim.themanshelovedmorethananything.（她想給他買?件精美又別致的禮物，?件配得上吉姆的

禮物----那個她愛得勝過一切的男人。）”和第三段"Shepulleddownherlongbrownhair,lettingitfallto

herkneeslikeacascadeofbrownwaters.Thenshegrabbedhercoalandhurriedouttosellherhairfor$20.（她放

下那頭棕色的長發(fā)，發(fā)絲垂落到膝蓋，宛如一簾褐色的水瀑。隨后她抓起外套，匆匆出門，把頭發(fā)賣掉，

換來了二十美元。）”可知，德拉為了給丈夫買禮物，賣掉自己最珍貴的長發(fā)，體現(xiàn)出她體貼、深情且為愛

付出，由此可知，她是體貼且富有奉獻精神的。故選C。

B

【答案】4.B5.A6.D7.C

【解析】

【導語】這是一篇記敘文。主要講述了24歲的洪樂沛創(chuàng)辦AI公司AxiomMath。她因初中學習奧數(shù)發(fā)掘

潛力，經(jīng)頂尖學府深造后，致力于研發(fā)具備數(shù)學推理能力的“AI數(shù)學家”。

【4題詳解】

細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中“Shegrewuplikeotherkids,andshowednospecialtalentuntilshestartedlearning

Olympiadmathematicsinjuniorhighschool——thisunlockedherpotentialandsurprisedeveryone.（她和其彳也孩

子一樣成長，直到初中開始學習奧林匹克數(shù)學才展現(xiàn)出非凡的天賦一一這激發(fā)了她的潛能，并讓所有人都

感到驚訝。）”可知，學習奧數(shù)讓洪樂潼年輕時激發(fā)了她的潛能。故選B項。

【5題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段“Inhighschool,HongwasselectedintoGuangdongProvincialOlympiadMathematics

她豐修數(shù)學和物理學,完成了超過20門高級課程，并相仟學牛組織的書席以幫助國際學牛。后來,她獲

得了羅德獎學金，前往牛津大學學習神經(jīng)科學，之后在斯坦福大學攻讀了兩個博士學位，并為低收入人群

提供法律援助。）”可推知，洪樂潼在學業(yè)和社交方面都很出色。故選A項。

【6題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段中“NoticingAPsbigshortcomingsinmathematicalreasoning,shefoundedAxiom

將教科書、論文和期刊中的英語數(shù)學內(nèi)容轉(zhuǎn)化為可編程的知識。這使得人工智能不僅能夠解決復雜的數(shù)學

問寇，還能以嚴格的方式驗證解決方案。公理數(shù)學的目標是開發(fā)出具有邏輯推理能力的真正的“人工智能

數(shù)學家”，而洪甚至希望“人工智能數(shù)學家”在未來能提出全新的數(shù)學猜想。)”可知，洪樂涌創(chuàng)立了

“AxiomMaih”公司是為了開發(fā)具有推理能力的人工智能。故選D項。

「題詳解】

主旨大意題。根據(jù)文章大意以及第,段“At24,CarinaHongfoundedanAIcompanycalledAxiomMath.With

itsuniquetechnicalideasandcleardevelopmentgoals,thecompanyhaschangedtraditionalviewsintheSilicon

Valleyinvestmentcapitalcircle.(24歲時，洪樂涌創(chuàng)了一家名為"AxiomMalh”的人「智能公司。憑借其

獨特的技術(shù)埋念和明確的發(fā)展目標，該公司改變了硅谷投資資本圈的傳統(tǒng)觀念。)”可知，文章主要講述了

備數(shù)學推理能力的“AI數(shù)學家”。由此可知，這篇文章適合的標題是“從奧林匹克數(shù)學到人工智能數(shù)學

家”。故選C項。

【答案】8.A9.B10.CII.D

【解析】

【導語】這是一篇說明文。文章主要探討了音樂對心理健康的積極作用，指出音樂不僅能調(diào)節(jié)情緒，還能

改變思維內(nèi)容，打破負面思維循環(huán)，并建議將音樂更廣泛地應用于社會生活中。

【8題詳解】

細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段“Ina2019study,participantslistenedtoheroicorsadmusicwhiletheirminds

wandered.Upliftingmusicbroughtactiveandpositivethoughts,whilesadmusicarousedcalmerormore

discouragingones.（在2019年的?頂研究中，參與者在走神時聽英雄或悲傷的音樂。振奮人心的音樂帶來積

極活躍的思想，而悲傷的音樂則引發(fā)更平靜或更令人沮喪的思想。）”可知，2019年的研究主要發(fā)現(xiàn)音樂可

以改變思維。故選A。

【9題詳解】

第6頁/共18頁

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段“Becausethebrain'sdefaultmodenetwork（DMN）,supportingimagination,memory

andreflection,oftencausesrepeatedandnegativethoughts.（因為大腦的默認模式網(wǎng)絡(luò)（DMN）支持想象、記憶

和反思,常常導致重復和消極的想法。）”和第四段MRecentstudiesindicatethatnegativedaydreams,especially

whenaccompaniedbysadmusic,activatethebrain'spainnetworkandtheDMN.（最近的研究表明，消極的白日

夢，尤其是伴隨著悲傷的音樂時，會激活大腦的疼痛網(wǎng)絡(luò)和默認模式網(wǎng)絡(luò)。）”可知，DMN會產(chǎn)生消極的

想法，激活大腦的疼痛網(wǎng)絡(luò)，所以可以推斷出DMN可能會產(chǎn)生壓抑的情緒。故選

【10題詳解】

詞句猜測題。根據(jù)下文“Thesetwosystemsworkinoppositiontoeachother,meaningwhenoneisactive,the

otherquietsdown.（這兩個系統(tǒng)相互對立，這意味著當一個系統(tǒng)活躍時，另一個系統(tǒng)就會安靜卜來。）”可知，

DMN和控制網(wǎng)絡(luò)是相互對立的，由此可知，counterpart的意思是“對手”。故選C。

【11題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段°Ifmusiccandoallthis,itneedstoberecognisedasfarmorethanjustasimple

pleasureinlife.Musicshouldbeintegratedintoschools,publichealthstrategies,anddailyroutines4如果音樂能做

到這一切，它需要被認為不僅僅是生活中的一種簡單樂趣。音樂應該融入學校、公共衛(wèi)生策略和日常生活

中。）”可知，音樂值得更廣泛的社會應用。故選D。

【答案】12.B13.D14.B15.A

【解析】

【導語】這是一篇說明文。本文講述了研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，部分狗狗不僅能記住玩具名字，還能根據(jù)玩具在玩耍中

的用途對玩具進行分類，并且能在沒有語言和動作提示的情況下，將這種分類規(guī)則應用到全新玩具上。

【12題詳解】

細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段”Next,ownersaskedtheirdogsto4bringmeapulPor'bringmeathrow-fromatoy

上。故選B。

【13題詳解】

第8頁/共18頁

細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段“Previousanimalstudiesthatcategorizedthingsbytheirusereliedonlabsettingsand

驗室環(huán)境和正式訓練。Fugazza說：“這是第一次在動物的自然環(huán)境中探索這種認知技能，同時確保狗只得

到社交線索”。）”可知，新研究與早期研究的不同之處在于它避免了非自然環(huán)境。故選D。

【14題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段“Previousanimalstudiesthatcategorizedthingsbytheirusereliedonlabsettingsand

fbnnaltraining.''Thisisthefirststudyexploringthiscognitiveskillinanimalsintheirnaturalenvironmentwhile

證明所有狗狗都具備這種功能分類能力。“但，”她補充道，“我也不排除這種可能性。可知，作者全

程沒有一句自己的主觀評價，所有觀點全部都是引用研究員Fugazza的話，F(xiàn)ugazza指出了實臉的局限性，

但也說明新研究或許可以證明狗狗也許具備這種功能分類能力。因此，作者對這項研究的態(tài)度是客觀的。

故選B。

【15題詳解】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)判后一段wNext,researchersmaywanttoexplorewhatothermentalcategoriesthesedogscan

learn,andwhatbrainactivitiesunderlietheseabilities.（接下來,研究人員可能想要探索這些狗還能學習哪些其

他心理類別，以及這些能力背后的大腦活動是什么。）”可知，研究人員接下來可能會探索狗的其他認知技

能。故選Ao

【答案】16.E17.F18.C19.G20.D

【解析】

【導語】這是一篇議論文。文章主要討論了大學經(jīng)歷以及文科教育的重要性。

【16題詳解】

上文“Itcanbeachancetogrowandopenourmindsinbothstudyandsociallife,oritcanmeanstudentswork

hardonlytogetadegree.（它既可以是我們在學業(yè)和社交生活中成長、開闊眼界的機會，也可以僅僅意味著

學生埋頭苦讀只為拿到一張文憑。）”出現(xiàn)兩種選擇，大學要么是成長開闊眼界的機會，要么只為拿文憑，

下文“Becausewhatsetsstudentsapartinthejobmarketisnottheirgrades,butthesoftskillsachievedthrougha

liberalarts（文科）education.（因為在職場中讓學生脫穎而出的并非成績，而是通過文科教育培養(yǎng)出的軟技能。

）”強調(diào)文科教育帶來的軟實力才是求職關(guān)鍵"E項“Iwouldargueallstudentsshouldworkforthefirstoption.

（我認為所有學生都應選擇第一種＜）”直接承接上文兩種選擇，明確作者立場，與下文支持全面發(fā)展的觀點

邏輯連貫。故選E。

【17題詳解】

上文“However,thisholistic（整體的）viewofeducationismeetingitsdeathwithfirst-timeadmissionratesat

liberalartscollegesdecreasingby0.6%everyyearsince2013.（然而，這種全面的教育理念正逐漸消亡----自

2013年以來，文理學院的首次錄取率每年下降0.6%。）”指出文科教育不受重視的趨勢。F項“Thistrend

第10頁/共18頁

makespeoplepaylessattentiontosoftskillsandmoreattentiontoacademicgrades4這一趨勢讓人們更少關(guān)注軟

實力，更看重成績。）"中Thistrend精準指代前文錄取率下降的現(xiàn)象，同時呼應第一段強調(diào)的軟實力重要

性，形成對比。故選F。

【18題詳解】

上文44Itaimstointegratecriticalthinkingandproblem-solvingskillsfromeverysubject/文科教育旨在融合各

個學科的批判性思維與解決問題的能力。）”說明文科教育整合各學科的批判性思維與解決問題能力。C項

“Thishelpsstudentsseeallmajorsorsubjectsinacomprehensiveway.（這幫助學生全面看待所有專業(yè)。）“中

This指代文科整合多學科能力的特點，comprehensiveway與下文對比STEM專業(yè)狹隘聚焦單一學科形成

呼應。故選C。

【19題詳解】

下文Instead,theysimplyrequirestudentstolakeacertainnumberofcoursesin（henameofbecoming

“well-rounded.”Yetthistermremainstooabstractforstudentstograsp.（相反，這些學校只是以培養(yǎng)“全面發(fā)展

的人才”為名，要求學生修滿一定數(shù)量的課程。然而，這個說法對學生來說太過抽象，難以真正理解。）”

講的是高校對文科教育的不當做法。G項“Sadly,universitiesfailtoexplainwhatliberalartseducationreally

aimsfor.（遺憾的是，大學沒能解釋文科教育的真正目標。）”引巴下文學校的敷衍做法。故選G。

【20題詳解】

上文"Thegoalofaliberalartseducationistoexposestudentstonewviewpoints.（文科教育的目標是讓學生接

觸新的觀點。）”指出目標是讓學生接觸新觀點，下文"Byencouragingstudentstothinkbeyondarightor

wronganswer,（heycanbetterunderstandboththeworldandourplaceinit.（通過鼓勵學生跳出非對即錯的思維

定式，他們能更好地理解世界以及自身在世界中的位置。）”指出跳出非對即錯的思維。D項“Thus.（heycan

constantlychallengetheirpreviousviews.（因此他們能不斷挑戰(zhàn)以往的觀點。）“承接“接觸新觀點”帶來的結(jié)

果，challengepreviousviews與下文跳出固定答案、辯證看待世界的內(nèi)容完全契合。故選D。

三、完形填空（1*15=15分）
