As we drove along the country road, a herd of deer emerged as if by magic, surrounding us from all sides.
I shouted at my husband to slow down and avoid hitting them. We were coming to a stop when the car doors
flew open and we sprang out of the car. A deer lay injured by the roadside, with its eyes wide open. While
some deer scattered, a few remained at a safe distance, observing the scene. “I have to call the police,” my
husband said.
As we waited for help, a nearby resident came out of his house, angrily shouting instructions. I told him
that we had already contacted the police. He stood at his doorway, arms crossed, watching us. I know he wanted
to make sure we didn’t leave the scene.
I suggested calling a 24-hour veterinarian clinic, but before doing so, I noticed a slight movement in the
deer’s back leg. We watched as she struggled to rise. After several minutes, she managed to stand. She turned
her head to look at us, and then leapt gracefully toward the forest.

I raced after her until she disappeared into the forest. Tears streamed down my face, a mix of joy that she
could run again and fear for her survival. I walked back to the car just as the police arrived. Our “security
guard” returned to his house, satisfied that his role was complete.
After listening to our account, the police praised us for remaining at the scene. They told us that deer are
resilient creatures and that she would survive.
The following day, we revisited the scene. The area showed no signs of blood. I discovered a piece of our
car’s plastic bumper with the deer’s fur attached to it. I picked it up and took it home.
Whenever I see a deer walking through the forest along our country road, I wonder if it was our deer from
that summer evening.

Given the astonishing potential of AI to transform our lives, we all need to take action to deal with our
AI-powered future, and this is where AI by Design: A Plan for Living with Artificial Intelligence comes in.
This absorbing new book by Catriona Campbell is a practical roadmap addressing the challenges posed by the
forthcoming AI revolution.
In the wrong hands, such a book could prove as complicated to process as the computer code that powers
AI but, thankfully, Campell has more than two decades’ professional experience translating the heady into the
understandable. She writes from the practical angle of a business person rather than as an academic, making
for a guide which is highly accessible and informative and which, by the close, will make you feel almost as
smart as AI.
As we soon come to learn from AI by Design, AI is already super-smart and will become more capable,
moving from the current generation of “narrow-AI” to Artificial General Intelligence. From there, Campbell
says, will come Artificial Domination Intelligence. This is why Campbell has set out to raise awareness of AI
and its future now—several decades before these developments are expected to take place. She says it is
essential that we keep control of artificial intelligence, or risk being sidelined and perhaps even worse.
Campbell’s point is to wake up those responsible for AI—the technology companies and world leaders—
第 4 页 共 9 页
so they are on the same page as all the experts currently developing it. She explains we are at a “tipping point”
in history and must act now to prevent an extinction-level event for humanity. We need to consider how we
want our future with AI to pan out. Such structured thinking, followed by global regulation, will enable us to
achieve greatness rather than our downfall.
AI affects us all, and if you only read one book on the subject, this is it.
28. What does the underlined phrase in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. If read by someone poorly educated. B. If written by someone less competent.
C. If reviewed by someone ill-intentioned. D. If translated by someone unacademic.
29. What is a feature of AI by Design according to the text?
A. It is packed with complex codes. B. It is intended for AI professionals.
C. It adopts a down-to-earth style. D. It provides step-by-step instructions.
30. What does Campbell urge people to do regarding AI development?
A. Observe existing regulations on it. B. Reconsider expert opinions about it.
C. Learn from prior experience to slow it down. D. Make joint efforts to keep it under control.
31. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To honor an outstanding AI expert. B. To recommend a book on AI.
C. To clarify the definition of AI. D. To give a brief account of AI history.
D
Most of us don’t have any memories from the first three to four years of our lives. And when we do try
to think back to our earliest memories, it is often unclear whether they are the real thing or just recollections
based on photos or stories told to us. The phenomenon, known as “childhood amnesia (健忘症)”, has been
puzzling psychologists for more than a century.
It may seem that the reason why we don’t remember being babies is that babies don’t have a fully
developed memory. But babies as young as six months can form both short-term and long-term memories. In
one study, six-month-olds who learned how to press a lever to operate a toy train remembered how to perform
this action for two to three weeks after they had last seen the toy.
Of course, memory capabilities at these ages are not adult-like—they continue to develop until puberty.
In fact, developmental changes in basic memory processes have been put forward as an explanation for
childhood amnesia, and it’s one of the best theories we’ve got so far. These basic processes involve several
brain regions and include forming, maintaining and later bringing back the memory.
But this does not seem to be the whole story. Another factor that we know plays a role is language. From
the ages of one to six, children progress from the one-word stage of speaking to becoming fluent in their native
language(s), so there are major changes in their language competence that overlap with the childhood amnesia
period. It is true to some extent that a child’s ability to describe an event predicts how well they remember it
months or years later.
While there are still things we don’t understand about childhood amnesia, it’s important to remember that,
even if we can’t clearly remember specific events from when we were very young, they still influence our
第 5 页 共 9 页
behavior. The first few years of life are forgettable and yet powerful in shaping the adults that we become.
32. What does the study mentioned in paragraph 2 show?
A. Babies don’t have a fully developed memory.
B. Babies don’t suffer from childhood amnesia.
C. Babies can remember things for weeks.
D. Babies can benefit from hands-on learning.
33. Which of the following is one of the best theories concerning childhood amnesia?
A. Babies’ brains are not mature enough.
B. Babies’ language skills need developing.
C. Babies cannot go through basic memory processes.
D. Babies rarely experience events that had a big impact.
34. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. Specific events from early childhood should be told to children.
B. The first few years of life should be taken seriously.
C. We can overcome childhood amnesia someday.
D. Childhood amnesia is fairly common.
35.What can be the best title for the text?
A. How our early childhood memories form
B. How childhood amnesia influences our lives
C. Why some memories disappear and others don’t
D. Why we can’t remember our early childhood

Not all great writers are great spellers. If you want to be published, it’s vital to submit a perfect,
professionally presented manuscript. 36 No editor is likely to tolerate a writer who does not take the
trouble to spell words correctly.
I keep two reference books close-by on my desk: dictionary and thesaurus (同义词词典). I don’t trust my
laptop’s spellchecker. 37 Of course, these days there are plenty of online dictionaries and thesauruses,
but I’m old-fashioned enough to prefer a hard cover and pages I can leaf through with my fingers. I use the
Concise Oxford Dictionary and the Collins Thesaurus.
38 It should give you a precise definition of each word, thus differentiating it from other words
whose meanings are similar, but not identical. It will also usually show how the word is pronounced.
In addition, I have an old two-volume copy of Shorter Oxford Dictionary, picked up a few years ago in a
bookshop sale for just 99 pence. Of course, with its 2,672 pages, it’s not exactly short. It contains around
163,000 words, plus word combinations and idiomatic phrases. 39 However, if I need to check the
origin of a word or to look up examples of its usages, there’s nothing better.
For well over a hundred years the most influential English dictionary was Samuel Johnson’s Dictionary
第 6 页 共 9 页
of the English Language published in 1755. “To make dictionaries is dull work,” wrote Johnson, illustrating
one definition of “dull”. 40 A few minutes spent casting your eye over a page or two can be a rewarding
experience.
A. I don’t often use this dictionary.
B. It takes no account of the context.
C. But I still don’t want to replace them.
D. But a dictionary can be a pleasure to read.
E. Of course, a dictionary is not only for spelling.
F. That means good grammar and no spelling mistakes.
G. Dictionaries don’t always give you enough information.

Breaking Records: Pan Zhanle Wins Gold in Men’s 100m Freestyle at Paris 2024 Olympics
Paris, August 1 — Chinese Pan Zhanle stunned the world by claiming the gold medal in the men’s 100m
freestyle at the 2024 Paris Olympics, breaking the world record with a 56 (shock) time of 46.40
seconds. This historic achievement marks China’s first-ever Olympic gold in the event, adding a 57
(nine) gold to the country’s tally (奖牌榜) at the Games.
Pan, who set the world record at the February world championships in Doha, 58 (face) intense
competition from the likes of former record holder David Popovic of Romania and Rio Olympic champion
Kyle Chalmers of Australia. However, Pan’s powerful stroke and impeccable (无可挑剔的) timing saw him
59 (finish) 1.08 seconds ahead, shaving 0.4 seconds 60 his own previous record. The 20-year-old
gold medalist from Zhejiang province 61 (remarkable) displayed consistency throughout the meet,
clocking 46.92 in the relay race and 47.21 in the semifinals. His victory is just like a legend, from breaking the
Asian record in 2023 to becoming 62 Olympic champion in 2024.
The young swimmer’s journey from a 4-year-old beginner to the 63 (fast) swimmer serves as an
inspiration to aspiring athletes around the globe. 64 Pan celebrates his historic feat, the world watches
in awe, anticipating more groundbreaking 65 (perform) from the rising star of Chinese swimming.

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。
Katie was happily jumping rope on the grass in front of her house facing the expansive city park just
across the road. The neighborhood residents often enjoyed walking around the lake in the park, and on this
pleasant day, with the sun casting its warm light, Katie spent the unhurried moments devoted to her jumping
routine.
Her thoughts were focused on her jumping: how to match the spinning of the jump rope in her hands and
the jumping of her feet so that they didn’t get mixed, causing her to trip. When her mind and muscles were
working together, and when every move flowed smoothly, all of it felt pretty good in the afternoon sunshine.
While jumping, she remembered that her grandmother had given her the jump rope for Christmas. She
knew that her grandmother didn’t have a lot of money and had to save up to buy the jump rope for her. Before
Christmas, her grandmother had taken her to some toy shops to look at different things, hoping to find out
what Katie wanted. When Katie finally got the gift, it was not just a jump rope but the very jump rope she had
wanted for a long time. She felt especially loved by her considerate grandmother.
The warmth of the afternoon sun enhanced the joy Katie felt as she skipped along. Suddenly a boy rushed
across the road to her. Without any warning he robbed her of her jump rope, shouting, “Give me that.” and
raced back across the road towards the park.
Empty-handed, Katie was left in confusion. It took her a while to recover from the shock. When she came
to her senses and realized the theft of her grandma’s gift, tears welled up. A wave of anger and disappointment
swept over her. But in that moment of upset, something unusual in the park captured her attention.
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。
Paragraph 1: Following the boy quickly, she spotted a group of kids crying anxiously by the lake. ________
