Rising sea levels and the potential impacts to huge coastal populations worldwide rank near the top of concerns when it comes to consequences of a worsening climate emergency. But a lesser-known danger poses an equal or arguably more urgent threat to millions around the world living at much higher altitudes: flooding from glacial lakes.
With average temperatures rising around the world in recent decades, a number of these lakes high above population centers in South America and Asia have become swollen and unstable as the reserves of snow and ice that feed them melt ever quicker.
For the first time, an international team of researchers has quantified this threat. It reports that 15 million people are in the path of potential floods from these swollen bodies of water. “Understanding which areas face the greatest danger from glacial flooding will allow for more targeted and effective risk management actions, which in turn will help minimize loss of life and damage to infrastructure downstream,” said co-author Rachel Carr, head of physical geography at Newcastle University.
In 1941, a glacial (冰川) lake outburst flood, or GLOF, from Lake Palcacocha killed thousands in the town of Huaraz below and largely inspired the beginning of research into the phenomenon. Dams and other infrastructure were put in place to relieve the threat from the lake in the 1970s, but its volume is now over 30 times greater, requiring new improvements to safely drain and release water pressure.
Lead researcher Caroline Taylor says the researchers also found that understanding the danger requires more than just counting lakes and measuring their volume. “Instead, it is the number of people, their distance to a glacial lake and importantly, their ability to cope with a flood that determines the potential danger from a GLOF event.”
In recent years, a warning system was set up at Lake Palcacocha that could give residents of Huaraz enough time to get out of the way of an incoming flood. Meanwhile, other threatened villages with no such alert system continue to rely on hope and luck.
4. Why does the author mention rising sea levels in the first paragraph
A. To make a comparison. B. To introduce the topic.
C. To provide an example. D. To support his argument.
5. What can we learn about GLOF from the passage
A. An international team first figured out the dangerous areas.
B. Effective risk management will rid people of the danger.
C. A GLOF in the 1970s determined the start of study into the danger.
D. Threatened villagers without warning systems can easily get hurt.
6. Which factor decides the potential danger according to Caroline Taylor
A. The number of the unstable lakes. B. The volume of the unstable lakes.
C. The coping ability of the potential victims D. The degree of climate change.
7. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. Glacial Lakes: a Potential Danger B. GLOF: an Overlooked Threat
C. Climate Change: the Cause of GLOF D. Warning Systems: a Solution to GLOF
【答案】4. B 5. D 6. C 7. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了气候变化导致冰川湖泊的洪水将威胁到高海拔地区数百万人的生命，进一步介绍了冰川湖泊洪水泛滥的原因、危害、人们的研究及应对办法。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“But a lesser-known danger poses an equal or arguably more urgent threat to millions around the world living at much higher altitudes: flooding from glacial lakes.(但是，一个鲜为人知的危险对全球生活在高海拔地区的数百万人构成了同样或可以说更紧迫的威胁：冰川湖泊的洪水)”中的but可推知，作者提到海平面上升，是为了引出话题——冰川湖泊的洪水。故选B项。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“In 1941, a glacial (冰川) lake outburst flood, or GLOF, from Lake Palcacocha killed thousands in the town of Huaraz below and largely inspired the beginning of research into the phenomenon.(1941年，来自帕尔卡科查湖的冰川湖爆发洪水，造成下面瓦拉斯镇数千人死亡，这在很大程度上激发了对这一现象的研究)”可知，GLOF的破坏力非常大；再结合最后一段“Meanwhile, other threatened villages with no such alert system continue to rely on hope and luck.(与此同时，其他没有这种警报系统的受威胁村庄继续依靠希望和运气)”可推知，没有预警系统而又受到威胁的村民很容易因为GLOF受伤。故选D项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Lead researcher Caroline Taylor says the researchers also found that understanding the danger requires more than just counting lakes and measuring their volume. ‘Instead, it is the number of people, their distance to a glacial lake and importantly, their ability to cope with a flood that determines the potential danger from a GLOF event.’(首席研究员卡罗琳·泰勒说，研究人员还发现，了解危险需要的不仅仅是计算湖泊数量和测量它们的体积。“相反，决定GLOF事件潜在危险的是人口数量，他们与冰川湖的距离，以及重要的是他们应对洪水的能力。”)”可知，决定GLOF事件潜在危险的是人口数量，他们与冰川湖的距离，以及重要的是他们应对洪水的能力，即潜在受害者的应对能力。故选C项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段““But a lesser-known danger poses an equal or arguably more urgent threat to millions around the world living at much higher altitudes: flooding from glacial lakes.(但是，一个鲜为人知的危险对全球生活在高海拔地区的数百万人构成了同样或可以说更紧迫的威胁：冰川湖泊的洪水)”可知，文章话题是围绕冰川湖泊的洪水来展开的，接下来进一步解释了原因、危害、人们的研究及应对办法。由此可知，A选项“冰川湖：一个潜在的危险”符合文章主旨。故选A项。
C
When I first heard about Summit Learning, I admitted I was not a bit happy and excited at all. I thought it would require interactions with others. But later, I was astonished when I got to experience it firsthand.
Recently, we did a poetry project, and one of the activities was a peer (同龄人) review. I would never have taken part if it was up to me, as I preferred to work independently. But when I got involved, I found in the experience, I had done something that I thought was nearly impossible — it made my poetry better. My partner informed me of my mistakes and told me where I could give more detail.
One of our final products of the project was to present our poetry to the class. I’ve always loved public speaking, but I thought with Summit Learning, I would have fewer chances to speak. I was wrong. The peer activities we did with a partner gave me more belief in my ability and inspired me to do more to make my presentation the best it could possibly be.
Interactions like these are what Summit Learning is all about. This style of learning brings a positive and hard-working culture that allows us to push our boundaries and keep going. It creates a sense of community since we are all working towards a similar goal.
As an active boy, I have always been ahead and advanced, but in a normal classroom, there are restrictions on what I can do. With Summit Learning, I can go beyond expectations in projects or move ahead in learning new content when I’m ready. I have ownership of my work and pursue my goals.
Summit Learning has showed me how much people can grow and change. It has helped me see people and myself differently. It has been one of the greatest experiences of my life, and I cannot see myself going back to a normal classroom.
8. What was the author’s initial response to Summit Learning
A. He was unwilling to attend it. B. He was excited to take part in it.
C. He was astonished to hear about it. D. He was unhappy to withdraw from it.
9. How did the poetry project benefit the author
A. It boosted his confidence. B. It developed his sense of humor.
C. It reminded him to be independent. D. It taught him how to organize activities.
10. What can be inferred about Summit Learning
A. It proves the limits of one’s abilities. B. It teaches poetry in a normal classroom.
C. It transforms the traditional way of learning. D. It promotes diversity of classroom objectives.
11. How does the author find Summit Learning now
A. Demanding. B. Admirable. C. Upsetting. D. Conventional.
【答案】8. A 9. A 10. C 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者参与Summit Learning的经历。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“When I first heard about Summit Learning, I admitted I was not a bit happy and excited at all. (当我第一次听说Summit Learning时，我承认我一点也不高兴和兴奋)”可知，当作者第一次听说Summit Learning时，他承认自己很不乐意参加。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The peer activities we did with a partner gave me more belief in my ability and inspired me to do more to make my presentation the best it could possibly be. (我们和一个伙伴一起做的同伴活动让我对自己的能力更有信心，并激励我做更多的事情，使我的演讲尽可能最好)”可知，Summit Learning的学习经历让作者对自己的能力更有信心。故选A。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“This style of learning brings a positive and hard-working culture that allows us to push our boundaries and keep going. (这种学习方式带来了积极和勤奋的文化，使我们能够突破自己的界限并继续前进)”和第五段中的“As an active boy, I have always been ahead and advanced, but in a normal classroom, there are restrictions on what I can do. (作为一个好动的男孩，我一直走在前面，不断进步，但是在一个正常的教室里，我所能做的是有限制的)”可知，Summit Learning改变了传统的学习方式，让作者突破限制并继续前进。故选C。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Summit Learning has showed me how much people can grow and change. It has helped me see people and myself differently. It has been one of the greatest experiences of my life, and I cannot see myself going back to a normal classroom. ( Summit Learning向我展示了人可以成长和改变多少。它帮助我以不同方式看待别人和自己。这是我一生中最伟大的经历之一，我无法想象自己会回到正常的教室)”可推知，作者认为Summit Learning是值得赞赏的。故选B。
D
Artificial Intelligence (AI) advice is as influential as humans', but positive crowd views still overpower.
In a study, researchers found that machines that make recommendations-or AI experts-were as influential as human experts when the AI experts recommended which photo users should add to their online business profiles. However, both AI and human experts failed to budge them if their feedback was negative and went against popular views among other users, said S. Shyam Sundar, a professor of Media Effects.
Because people are increasingly using social media to look for feedback, studies suggest that expert opinions and the bandwagon effect (从众效应) may be important factors in influencing decisions. According to Jinping Wang, a doctoral candidate in mass communication and first author of the study. "Nowadays, we often turn to online platforms for opinions from other people-like our peers and experts-before making a decision," said Wang. AI experts are often less expensive than human experts and they can also work 24 hours a day, which, Wang suggests, might make them appealing to online businesses.
The researchers also found that the AI's group status (群体地位) -in this case, national origin was pointed out-did not seem to affect a person's acceptance of its recommendation. Among human experts, however, an expert from a similar national origin who offered a negative opinion of a photograph tended to be more influential than a human expert from an unknown country who offered a similar negative rating of a photograph.
While findings that suggest group status may not affect whether a person values the view of AI experts sound like good news, Sundar suggests that the same cultural biases (偏见) might still be at work in AI experts for they could be hidden in the programming and training data.
"It can be both good-and bad-because it all depends on what you feed AI, " said Sundar. "While it is good to believe in AI's ability to transcend (超越) cultural biases, we have to keep in mind that if you train the AI on pictures from one culture, they could give misleading recommendations on pictures meant for use in other cultural contexts."
12. What do the underlined words "budge them" in paragraph 2 mean
A. Raise their spirits. B. Satisfy their needs.
C. Change their ideas. D. Fire their imagination.
13. Why do users often turn to AI experts
A. AI experts are more knowledgeable.
B. AI experts are on hand and cost less.
C. AI experts are less influenced by feelings.
D. AI experts are so new as to be more attractive.
14. Which expert's negative assessments is a person more likely to believe
A. An expert who has great achievements in arts.
B. An expert with better personality and attitude.
C. A foreign expert who is very popular worldwide.
D. An expert from countries with similar cultures to his.
15. What did Sundar mean by the last paragraph
A. People should have a mind of their own.
B. People should be able to tell good from bad.
C. People should know AI's hidden cultural biases.
D. People should be trained how to use AI properly.
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。在进行推荐建议时，AI专家和人类专家的影响力一样有效。AI专家由于便捷性、低成本受到广泛欢迎，但我们不应该忘记其中隐藏的文化偏见，这取决于人类如何灌输和训练。
【12题详解】
词义猜测题。根据文章第二段“In a study, researchers found that machines that make recommendations-or AI experts-were as influential as human experts when the AI experts recommended which photo users should add to their online business profiles. ”（在一项研究中，研究人员发现，当人工智能专家建议哪些照片用户应该添加到他们的在线商业资料中时，提出建议的机器——或人工智能专家——的影响力与人类专家一样大。）及“However...if their feedback was negative and went against popular views among other users”（但是...如果他们的反馈是负面的，并且与其他用户的流行观点相悖）可推测，当反馈是负面的情况下，人工智能和人类专家都不能做出让步，即改变不了人们的观点。故选C项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“AI experts are often less expensive than human experts and they can also work 24 hours a day, which, Wang suggests, might make them appealing to online businesses.”（王表示，人工智能专家通常比人类专家更便宜，而且他们可以一天24小时工作，这可能会让他们对在线企业有吸引力。）可知，用户经常寻求AI专家的帮助是因为AI专家便捷并且花费少。故选B项。
14题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Among human experts, however, an expert from a similar national origin who offered a negative opinion of a photograph tended to be more influential than a human expert from an unknown country who offered a similar negative rating of a photograph.”（然而，在人类专家中，来自相似国家的专家如果对照片给出负面评价，往往比来自未知国家的专家给出相似负面评价的照片更有影响力。）可推测，来自相似文化背景的专家观点更有影响力。故选D项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“While it is good to believe in AI's ability to transcend cultural biases, we have to keep in mind that if you train the AI on pictures from one culture, they could give misleading recommendations on pictures meant for use in other cultural contexts.”（虽然相信人工智能能够超越文化偏见是件好事，但我们必须记住，如果你用一种文化的图片来训练人工智能，它们可能会对其他文化背景下使用的图片给出误导性的建议。）由此判断出，Sundar 的意思是人们应该知道人工智能隐藏的文化偏见。故选C项。

Calendars are for managing your time. They work overtime to keep the messiness of human life confined into neat little grids, squeezing our lives into seconds, minutes and hours. I appreciate a calendar’s determined efforts to manage time. ___16___ For the past several years, I’ve kept a planner with me at all times. The real magic in planners, to me, comes in the blank space where I reflect on the past and imagine the future. Cracking open a fresh week’s layout on a Monday morning and seeing the empty pages expand like a canvas waiting to be filled, the tone of the week yet to be set, the possibilities endless.
You start by creating a wish list for your ideal life. The idea is to be as specific as possible. You then pick the one goal that would have the biggest positive impact. You break that goal down into smaller tasks, and then prioritize them. ___17___ This method turns a general idea in your head into something that you can actually accomplish. From there, you can reflect every month on how you spent your time, and whether what you did actually is consistent with the goals you set.
___18___ It leaves no digital footprint, but it does leave a paper trail that you can look back on for years to come. It doesn’t buzz impatiently when you don’t look at it, and it will not be exported to Outlook. It requires you to sit in quiet conversation with yourself, reflecting on your past and visualizing your future. It forces me to answer hard truths, like what do I really want out of life and am I spending my days in line with who I want to be. ___19___
Planning helps me ensure that I’m not a passenger at the mercy of my calendar, but rather driving toward a destination that I choose. ___20___ And some really nice pens.
A. Then, add those tasks to the calendar.
B. There’s no pressure to make it perfect.
C. But planners are for dreaming without limits.
D. It’s easy to appreciate calendars for their usefulness.
E. Using a paper planner brings me both joy and a sense of calm.
F. It’s an important ritual (仪式) that deserves weight and ceremony.
G. After all, our lives are the sum of how we spend our time and what we pay attention to.
【答案】16. C 17. A 18. E 19. G 20. F
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了paper planner (纸张规划簿)，它可以给作者带来快乐与平静，表达了作者对它的喜爱。
【16题详解】
上文“Calendars are for managing your time. They work overtime to keep the messiness of human life confined into neat little grids, squeezing our lives into seconds, minutes and hours. I appreciate a calendar’s determined efforts to manage time. (日历用于管理您的时间。它们加班加点，把人类生活中的混乱局限在整洁的小格子里，把我们的生活压缩成几秒钟、几分钟和几小时。我欣赏日历为管理时间所做的坚定努力)”讲述了日历的作用，它把人们的生活限制在整齐的小格子中，作者表示出对日历的欣赏。下文“For the past several years, I’ve kept a planner with me at all times. The real magic in planners, to me, comes in the blank space where I reflect on the past and imagine the future. Cracking open a fresh week’s layout on a Monday morning and seeing the empty pages expand like a canvas waiting to be filled, the tone of the week yet to be set, the possibilities endless. (在过去的几年里，我一直都有一个规划簿。对我来说，规划簿的真正魔力来自于我反思过去和想象未来的空白空间。在周一的早晨打开一周的新布局，看到空白的页面像画布一样展开，等待填满，本周的基调尚未设定，可能性无限)”讲到在过去的几年里，作者一直随身带着一个规划簿，它给作者的神奇魔力是空白的空间，给作者无限可能，没有束缚。因此，可以推断出空格内容应表示转折对比，体现规划簿的没有束缚特征，C选项“但规划簿支持无限制的梦想。”切题。故选C项。
【17题详解】
上文“You start by creating a wish list for your ideal life. The idea is to be as specific as possible. You then pick the one goal that would have the biggest positive impact. You break that goal down into smaller tasks, and then prioritize them. (你首先要为你的理想生活建立一个愿望清单。想法是尽可能具体。然后你选择一个会产生最大积极影响的目标。你将目标分解为较小的任务，然后对它们进行优先级排序)”讲到列一个详细的愿望清单，挑选一个最有积极影响的目标，然后把它们分成一个个小任务，然后排序。下文“This method turns a general idea in your head into something that you can actually accomplish. From there, you can reflect every month on how you spent your time, and whether what you did actually is consistent with the goals you set. (这种方法将你头脑中的一个总的想法转变为你可以实际完成的事情。从那里，你可以每个月反思你是如何度过时间的，以及你所做的事情是否与你设定的目标一致)”讲到这个方法的作用，在那里可以反映出你每个月时间的分配。因此，可以推断，空格中应对上文的小任务进行处理。下文的there有所指，故选项中应出现一个东西或者地方，结合第一段讲到日历的作用可知，there指日历，A选项“然后，将这些任务添加到日历中。”切题。故选A项。
【18题详解】
段首的空格，因此我们要往后看。由下文“It leaves no digital footprint, but it does leave a paper trail that you can look back on for years to come. It doesn’t buzz impatiently when you don’t look at it, and it will not be exported to Outlook. It requires you to sit in quiet conversation with yourself, reflecting on your past and visualizing your future. (它没有留下数字足迹，但它确实留下了纸上的痕迹，你可以在未来几年回顾。当你不看它时，它不会不耐烦地发出嗡嗡声，也不会导出到Outlook。它要求你与自己静静地交谈，反思你的过去，想象你的未来)”可知，空格处是这一段的总起句，这个“它”指的就是paper planner (纸张规划簿)，纸张规划簿给作者带来了平静，E选项“使用纸张规划簿给我带来了快乐和平静。”切题。故选E项。
【19题详解】
由上文“It forces me to answer hard truths, like what do I really want out of life and am I spending my days in line with who I want to be. (它迫使我回答一些残酷的事实，比如我真正想要的是什么，我的日子是按照我想成为的人度过的吗)”讲到纸张规划簿促使作者回答一些残酷的事实，让作者思考真正想从生活中得到什么，有没有活成自己想要的样子。因此，可以推测，这个空格也是在探讨生活究竟是什么，G选项“毕竟，我们的生活是我们如何花费时间和关注什么的总和。”切题。故选G项。
【20题详解】
上文“Planning helps me ensure that I’m not a passenger at the mercy of my calendar, but rather driving toward a destination that I choose. (计划有助于我确保我不是一个受日历支配的乘客，而是朝着我选择的目的地开车)”讲到计划帮助作者确保自己不是一个被日历支配的旅客，而是驶向自己选择的终点，再结合下文“And some really nice pens. (还有一些非常漂亮的钢笔)”可知，写计划需要钢笔，因此，可以推断空格内容要承上启下。承接上文计划是一个重要的仪式，引起下文，它需要重量和仪式，也需要好的钢笔。F选项“这是一个值得重视和仪式的重要仪式。”切题。故选F项。

57. 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。
Living in the shadow of my two elder sisters at college who already had their lives planned out since they were little, I was always undecided about everything. As a teenager, I was fickle (反复无常的). I would like one thing for a week and then hate it the next. But I was constantly searching for the beginning of the rainbow. Changing my dream from a vet to an astronaut, I thought there were various options available to me. However, my parents would shake their heads and repeatedly asked me such questions as, “Why can’t you be more like your sisters What are you going to do with your life Aren’t you interested in anything at all ” After a couple of shrugs (耸肩), my parents usually stopped talking. I was not sure if they gave up or anticipated my dull reactions. I often responded, “I couldn’t answer all of your questions now.”
Actually, my parents just had high expectations that never seemed to be fulfilled. Plus, like other parents, they just wanted to give the best to me and expected me to achieve success. The arguments with my parents seemed childish. One day, my mother made her thoughts clear, “Your grades aren’t high enough. No schools are going to want you, dear. We didn’t pay so much money for nothing.” Hesitating for a while, I said, “No matter what you say, I believe I will enter a good college.” Still, I let my emotions control myself.
Certainly, I had never planned not to go to college. After another debate with my mom, I decided to make a change. No longer would I sit back and let my parents mistake me for a bad boy. It was time to take action.
I knew it was a crucial year at high school. Releasing my feelings, I began to collect all the knowledge I had learned and review it with all my heart. I didn’t argue with my parents any more, but instead turned to my sisters for help and tried my best to study. Finally, I took the national college entrance examination with ease and confidence.
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。

My parents excitedly said behind me, “Well, open the envelop!”
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】A few days later, I received a call from my school, saying my college acceptance letter had arrived. Then I hurried to the school with my parents. It was beyond my wildest dream till that moment. As a matter of fact, I doubted then whether I was in the dream. I normally dreaded the long walk to the school. But that day was different. There seemed to be something in the air, an electric current, connecting my body to the letter. When I got it, I was really afraid that the envelop was empty. But there was a white package inside. With my heart beating faster, I wondered whether it could really be what was expected.
My parents excitedly said behind me, “Well, open the envelop!” What I grabbed in my hands contained everything I had been waiting for. Slowly, I opened it and a flash of CONGRATULATIONS in bold bright letters caught my eyes. A feeling of happiness and relief rushed through my body. I was holding my first offer from a good college. Needless to say, it wouldn’t have been possible if it weren’t for the countless hours of studying and writing, but most importantly, my parents’ constant reminders, in fact, were the best form of education for me. “Thank you, Mom and Dad!” I said gratefully.

Rising sea levels and the potential impacts to huge coastal populations worldwide rank near the top of concerns when it comes to consequences of a worsening climate emergency. But a lesser-known danger poses an equal or arguably more urgent threat to millions around the world living at much higher altitudes: flooding from glacial lakes.
With average temperatures rising around the world in recent decades, a number of these lakes high above population centers in South America and Asia have become swollen and unstable as the reserves of snow and ice that feed them melt ever quicker.
For the first time, an international team of researchers has quantified this threat. It reports that 15 million people are in the path of potential floods from these swollen bodies of water. “Understanding which areas face the greatest danger from glacial flooding will allow for more targeted and effective risk management actions, which in turn will help minimize loss of life and damage to infrastructure downstream,” said co-author Rachel Carr, head of physical geography at Newcastle University.
In 1941, a glacial (冰川) lake outburst flood, or GLOF, from Lake Palcacocha killed thousands in the town of Huaraz below and largely inspired the beginning of research into the phenomenon. Dams and other infrastructure were put in place to relieve the threat from the lake in the 1970s, but its volume is now over 30 times greater, requiring new improvements to safely drain and release water pressure.
Lead researcher Caroline Taylor says the researchers also found that understanding the danger requires more than just counting lakes and measuring their volume. “Instead, it is the number of people, their distance to a glacial lake and importantly, their ability to cope with a flood that determines the potential danger from a GLOF event.”
In recent years, a warning system was set up at Lake Palcacocha that could give residents of Huaraz enough time to get out of the way of an incoming flood. Meanwhile, other threatened villages with no such alert system continue to rely on hope and luck.
4. Why does the author mention rising sea levels in the first paragraph
A. To make a comparison. B. To introduce the topic.
C. To provide an example. D. To support his argument.
5. What can we learn about GLOF from the passage
A. An international team first figured out the dangerous areas.
B. Effective risk management will rid people of the danger.
C. A GLOF in the 1970s determined the start of study into the danger.
D. Threatened villagers without warning systems can easily get hurt.
6. Which factor decides the potential danger according to Caroline Taylor
A. The number of the unstable lakes. B. The volume of the unstable lakes.
C. The coping ability of the potential victims D. The degree of climate change.
7. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. Glacial Lakes: a Potential Danger B. GLOF: an Overlooked Threat
C. Climate Change: the Cause of GLOF D. Warning Systems: a Solution to GLOF
C
When I first heard about Summit Learning, I admitted I was not a bit happy and excited at all. I thought it would require interactions with others. But later, I was astonished when I got to experience it firsthand.
Recently, we did a poetry project, and one of the activities was a peer (同龄人) review. I would never have taken part if it was up to me, as I preferred to work independently. But when I got involved, I found in the experience, I had done something that I thought was nearly impossible — it made my poetry better. My partner informed me of my mistakes and told me where I could give more detail.
One of our final products of the project was to present our poetry to the class. I’ve always loved public speaking, but I thought with Summit Learning, I would have fewer chances to speak. I was wrong. The peer activities we did with a partner gave me more belief in my ability and inspired me to do more to make my presentation the best it could possibly be.
Interactions like these are what Summit Learning is all about. This style of learning brings a positive and hard-working culture that allows us to push our boundaries and keep going. It creates a sense of community since we are all working towards a similar goal.
As an active boy, I have always been ahead and advanced, but in a normal classroom, there are restrictions on what I can do. With Summit Learning, I can go beyond expectations in projects or move ahead in learning new content when I’m ready. I have ownership of my work and pursue my goals.
Summit Learning has showed me how much people can grow and change. It has helped me see people and myself differently. It has been one of the greatest experiences of my life, and I cannot see myself going back to a normal classroom.
8. What was the author’s initial response to Summit Learning
A. He was unwilling to attend it. B. He was excited to take part in it.
C. He was astonished to hear about it. D. He was unhappy to withdraw from it.
9. How did the poetry project benefit the author
A. It boosted his confidence. B. It developed his sense of humor.
C. It reminded him to be independent. D. It taught him how to organize activities.
10. What can be inferred about Summit Learning
A. It proves the limits of one’s abilities. B. It teaches poetry in a normal classroom.
C. It transforms the traditional way of learning. D. It promotes diversity of classroom objectives.
11 How does the author find Summit Learning now
A. Demanding. B. Admirable. C. Upsetting. D. Conventional.
D
Artificial Intelligence (AI) advice is as influential as humans', but positive crowd views still overpower.
In a study, researchers found that machines that make recommendations-or AI experts-were as influential as human experts when the AI experts recommended which photo users should add to their online business profiles. However, both AI and human experts failed to budge them if their feedback was negative and went against popular views among other users, said S. Shyam Sundar, a professor of Media Effects.
Because people are increasingly using social media to look for feedback, studies suggest that expert opinions and the bandwagon effect (从众效应) may be important factors in influencing decisions. According to Jinping Wang, a doctoral candidate in mass communication and first author of the study. "Nowadays, we often turn to online platforms for opinions from other people-like our peers and experts-before making a decision," said Wang. AI experts are often less expensive than human experts and they can also work 24 hours a day, which, Wang suggests, might make them appealing to online businesses.
The researchers also found that the AI's group status (群体地位) -in this case, national origin was pointed out-did not seem to affect a person's acceptance of its recommendation. Among human experts, however, an expert from a similar national origin who offered a negative opinion of a photograph tended to be more influential than a human expert from an unknown country who offered a similar negative rating of a photograph.
While findings that suggest group status may not affect whether a person values the view of AI experts sound like good news, Sundar suggests that the same cultural biases (偏见) might still be at work in AI experts for they could be hidden in the programming and training data.
"It can be both good-and bad-because it all depends on what you feed AI, " said Sundar. "While it is good to believe in AI's ability to transcend (超越) cultural biases, we have to keep in mind that if you train the AI on pictures from one culture, they could give misleading recommendations on pictures meant for use in other cultural contexts."
12. What do the underlined words "budge them" in paragraph 2 mean
A. Raise their spirits. B. Satisfy their needs.
C. Change their ideas. D. Fire their imagination.
13. Why do users often turn to AI experts
A. AI experts are more knowledgeable.
B. AI experts are on hand and cost less.
C. AI experts are less influenced by feelings.
D. AI experts are so new as to be more attractive.
14. Which expert's negative assessments is a person more likely to believe
A. An expert who has great achievements in arts.
B. An expert with better personality and attitude.
C. A foreign expert who is very popular worldwide.
D. An expert from countries with similar cultures to his.
15. What did Sundar mean by the last paragraph
A. People should have a mind of their own.
B People should be able to tell good from bad.
C. People should know AI's hidden cultural biases.
D. People should be trained how to use AI properly.

Calendars are for managing your time. They work overtime to keep the messiness of human life confined into neat little grids, squeezing our lives into seconds, minutes and hours. I appreciate a calendar’s determined efforts to manage time. ___16___ For the past several years, I’ve kept a planner with me at all times. The real magic in planners, to me, comes in the blank space where I reflect on the past and imagine the future. Cracking open a fresh week’s layout on a Monday morning and seeing the empty pages expand like a canvas waiting to be filled, the tone of the week yet to be set, the possibilities endless.

You break that goal down into smaller tasks and then prioritize them. ___17___ This method turns a general idea in your head into something that you can actually accomplish. From there, you can reflect every month on how you spent your time, and whether what you did actually is consistent with the goals you set.
___18___ It leaves no digital footprint, but it does leave a paper trail that you can look back on for years to come. It doesn’t buzz impatiently when you don’t look at it, and it will not be exported to Outlook. It requires you to sit in quiet conversation with yourself, reflecting on your past and visualizing your future. It forces me to answer hard truths, like what do I really want out of life and am I spending my days in line with who I want to be. ___19___
Planning helps me ensure that I’m not a passenger at the mercy of my calendar, but rather driving toward a destination that I choose. ___20___ And some really nice pens.

57. 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。
Living in the shadow of my two elder sisters at college who already had their lives planned out since they were little, I was always undecided about everything. As a teenager, I was fickle (反复无常的). I would like one thing for a week and then hate it the next. But I was constantly searching for the beginning of the rainbow. Changing my dream from a vet to an astronaut, I thought there were various options available to me. However, my parents would shake their heads and repeatedly asked me such questions as, “Why can’t you be more like your sisters What are you going to do with your life Aren’t you interested in anything at all ” After a couple of shrugs (耸肩), my parents usually stopped talking. I was not sure if they gave up or anticipated my dull reactions. I often responded, “I couldn’t answer all of your questions now.”
Actually, my parents just had high expectations that never seemed to be fulfilled. Plus, like other parents, they just wanted to give the best to me and expected me to achieve success. The arguments with my parents seemed childish. One day, my mother made her thoughts clear, “Your grades aren’t high enough. No schools are going to want you, dear. We didn’t pay so much money for nothing.” Hesitating for a while, I said, “No matter what you say, I believe I will enter a good college.” Still, I let my emotions control myself.
Certainly, I had never planned not to go to college. After another debate with my mom, I decided to make a change. No longer would I sit back and let my parents mistake me for a bad boy. It was time to take action.
I knew it was a crucial year at high school. Releasing my feelings, I began to collect all the knowledge I had learned and review it with all my heart. I didn’t argue with my parents any more, but instead turned to my sisters for help and tried my best to study. Finally, I took the national college entrance examination with ease and confidence.
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。
A few days later, I received a call from my school, saying my college acceptance letter had arrived.
