第一节英语知识运用

说明：

阅读下面的短文。为每个标有序号的空白处选择最合适的单词，并在答题卡上标记 A、B、C 或 D。（10 分）

        没有什么比为你打开的门更让人感到受欢迎的了。自动门无需手动开关，对于改善残疾人进入建筑物的通道至关重要，同时也有助于为商业建筑提供普遍的便利。

        自动滑动门在 1960 年作为商业产品出现，它是由美国人迪・霍顿（Dee Horton）和卢・休伊特（Lew Hewitt）在六年前发明的。它们起初只是一种新奇的功能，但随着使用范围的扩大，在我们这个技术先进的世界里，其益处也在不断扩展。在繁忙场所或紧急情况下尤其有用，这些门通过减少人们通行的障碍，起到人群管理的作用。

        除了让人们进出建筑物更方便之外，许多自动门开启方式的不同还有助于减少它们所占用的总面积。自动门通常向侧面开启，门板相互滑动。这些门取代了平开门，使小型建筑能够在无需为向外突出的大门清理通道的情况下，最大化内部可用空间。自动门有很多不同的类型，每种都依靠特定的信号来指示何时开启。尽管这些方法各不相同，但主要的原理是一样的。

        每个自动门系统都会分析其附近的光线、声音、重量或运动作为开启的信号。选择传感器类型是为了适配其所需的不同环境。例如，繁忙的街道可能不适合安装运动感应门，因为它会不断地为路人开启。压力感应垫在限制检测区域方面会更合适。

Section Ⅱ Reading Comprehension

Part A

Directions:

Read the following four texts. Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. (40 points)

Text 1

        Nearly 2,000 years ago, as the Romans began to pull out of Scotland, they left behind a curious treasure: 10 tons of nails, nearly a million of the things. The nail hoard was discovered in 1960 in a four - metre - deep pit covered by two metres of gravel.

      Why had the Romans buried a million nails? The likely explanation is that the withdrawal was rushed, and they didn’t want the local Caledonians getting their hands on 10 tons of weapon - grade iron. The Romans buried the nails so deep that they would not be discovered for almost two millennia.

        Later civilisations would value the skilled blacksmith’s labour in a nail even more than the raw material. As Roma Agrawal explains in her new delightful book Nuts and Bolts, early 17th - century Virginians would sometimes burn down their homes if they were planning to relocate. This was an attempt to recover the valuable nails, which could be reused after sifting the ashes. The idea that one might burn down an entire house just to reclaim the nails underlines how scarce, costly and valuable the simple - seeming technology was.

        The price of nails fell by 90% between the late 1700s and mid - 1900s, as economist Daniel Sichel points out in a research paper. According to Sichel, although the falling price of nails was driven partly by cheaper iron and cheaper energy, most of the credit goes to nail manufacturers who simply found more efficient ways to turn steel into nails.

        Nails themselves have changed over the years, but Sichel studied them because they haven’t changed much. Roman lamps and Roman chariots are very different from LED strips and sports cars, but Roman nails are still clearly nails. It would be absurd to try to track the changing price of sports cars since 1695, but to ask the same question of nails makes perfect sense.

        I make no apology for being obsessed by a particular feature of these objects: their price. I am an economist, after all. After writing two books about the history of inventions, one thing I’ve learnt is that while it is the enchantingly sophisticated technologies that get all the hype, it’s the cheap technologies that change the world.

        The Gutenberg printing press transformed civilisation not by changing the nature of writing but by changing its cost—and it would have achieved little without a parallel collapse in the price of surfaces to write on, thanks to an often - overlooked technology called paper. Solar panels had few niche uses until they became cheap; now they are transforming the global energy system.

1.The Romans buried the nails probably for the sake of
[A] saving them for future use.
[B] keeping them from rusting.
[C] letting them grow in value.
[D] hiding them from the locals.

2.The example of early 17th - century Virginians is used to
[A] highlight the thriftiness of early American colonists.
[B] illustrate the high status of blacksmiths in that period.
[C] contrast the attitudes of different civilisations towards nails.
[D] show the preciousness of nail - making technology at that time.

3.What played the major role in lowering the price of nails after the late 1700s?
[A] Increased productivity.
[B] Wider use of new energies.
[C] Fiercer market competition.
[D] Reduced cost of raw materials.

4.It can be learned from Paragraph 5 that nails
[A] have undergone many technological improvements.
[B] have remained basically the same since Roman times.
[C] are less studied than other everyday products.
[D] are one of the world’s most significant inventions.

5.Which of the following best summarises the last two paragraphs?
[A] Cheap technologies bring about revolutionary change.
[B] Technological innovation is integral to economic success.
[C] Technology defines people’s understanding of the world.
[D] Sophisticated technologies develop from small inventions.

第二部分阅读理解

A 部分

说明：

阅读以下四篇短文。从 A、B、C、D 四个选项中为每篇短文后的问题选择正确答案，并在答题卡 1 上作答。（40 分）

第一篇文章

        大约 2000 年前，当罗马人开始撤离苏格兰时，他们留下了一件奇特的宝藏：10 吨钉子，近 100 万枚。这批钉子于 1960 年在一个 4 米深、上面覆盖着 2 米砾石的坑里被发现。

        罗马人为什么要掩埋 100 万枚钉子呢？一个合理的解释是，他们撤离得很匆忙，不想让当地的喀里多尼亚人得到这 10 吨武器级别的铁。罗马人把钉子埋得很深，以至于近两千年来都未被发现。

        后世文明对熟练铁匠在制造钉子过程中付出的劳动的珍视，甚至超过了对原材料的重视。正如罗玛・阿格拉瓦尔在她那本有趣的新书《螺母与螺栓》中所阐述的，17 世纪早期的弗吉尼亚人如果打算搬迁，有时会烧毁自己的房子。这是为了回收那些宝贵的钉子，在筛滤灰烬后，这些钉子可以重新使用。有人为了回收钉子而烧毁整栋房子，这一想法突显了这项看似简单的技术曾经是多么稀缺、昂贵和珍贵。

        经济学家丹尼尔・西切尔在一篇研究论文中指出，在 18 世纪末到 20 世纪中期之间，钉子的价格下降了 90%。据西切尔称，尽管钉子价格的下降部分归因于更便宜的铁和能源，但主要功劳在于钉子制造商，他们找到了更高效的方法将钢材制成钉子。

        多年来，钉子本身也有了一些变化，但西切尔研究它们，正是因为它们变化不大。罗马的灯具和战车与 LED 灯带和跑车大不相同，但罗马的钉子显然还是钉子。试图追踪自 1695 年以来跑车价格的变化是荒谬的，但探究钉子价格的变化却完全合理。

        我对这些物品的一个特定特征 —— 价格 —— 着迷，对此我并不觉得有什么不妥。毕竟，我是一名经济学家。在写了两本关于发明史的书之后，我学到的一件事是，虽然那些令人着迷的尖端技术备受炒作，但改变世界的却是那些廉价的技术。

        古登堡印刷机之所以改变了文明，不是因为它改变了书写的本质，而是因为它改变了书写的成本 —— 而且，如果不是因为一种常被忽视的技术 —— 纸张 —— 使得书写载体的价格大幅下降，它也不会有多大成就。太阳能电池板在价格变得低廉之前，用途有限；而现在，它们正在改变全球能源体系。

1.

解析

答案：D
解析：根据文章第二段第二句 “The likely explanation is that the withdrawal was rushed, and they didn’t want the local Caledonians getting their hands on 10 tons of weapon - grade iron.” 可知，罗马人掩埋钉子可能是不想让当地的喀里多尼亚人得到这些武器级别的铁，也就是把钉子藏起来不让当地人得到，D 选项 “hiding them from the locals”（把它们藏起来不让当地人得到）符合文意。A 选项 “saving them for future use”（留着以后使用）、B 选项 “keeping them from rusting”（防止它们生锈）、C 选项 “letting them grow in value”（让它们增值）在文中均未提及。

2.

答案：D
解析：文章第三段提到 17 世纪早期弗吉尼亚人搬迁时会烧毁房子来回收钉子，随后指出 “The idea that one might burn down an entire house just to reclaim the nails underlines how scarce, costly and valuable the simple - seeming technology was.”，即通过这个例子强调了当时制钉技术的珍贵，D 选项 “show the preciousness of nail - making technology at that time”（展示当时制钉技术的珍贵）正确。A 选项 “highlight the thriftiness of early American colonists”（突出早期美国殖民者的节俭），文章重点并非强调节俭；B 选项 “illustrate the high status of blacksmiths in that period”（说明那个时期铁匠的高地位），例子未体现铁匠地位；C 选项 “contrast the attitudes of different civilisations towards nails”（对比不同文明对钉子的态度），该例子主要是体现制钉技术珍贵，而非对比不同文明态度。

3.

答案：A
解析：由文章第四段最后一句 “According to Sichel, although the falling price of nails was driven partly by cheaper iron and cheaper energy, most of the credit goes to nail manufacturers who simply found more efficient ways to turn steel into nails.” 可知，钉子价格下降虽然部分归因于更便宜的铁和能源，但主要原因是钉子制造商找到了更高效的生产方式，也就是提高了生产力，A 选项 “Increased productivity”（提高生产力）符合。B 选项 “Wider use of new energies”（新能源的更广泛使用）、C 选项 “Fiercer market competition”（更激烈的市场竞争）文中未提及；D 选项 “Reduced cost of raw materials”（原材料成本降低）不是主要原因。

        Parenting tips obtained from hunter - gatherers in Africa may be the key to bringing up more contented children, researchers have suggested. The idea is based on studies of communities such as the Kung of Botswana, where each child is cared for by many adults. Kung children as young as four will help to look after younger ones and “baby - wearing”, in which infants are carried in slings, is considered the norm.

        According to Dr Nikhil Chaudhary, an evolutionary anthropologist at Cambridge University, these practices, known as alloparenting, could lead to less anxiety for children and parents.

        Dr Annie Swanepoel, a child psychiatrist, believes that there are ways to incorporate them into western life. In Germany, one scheme has paired an old people’s home with a nursery. The residents help to look after the children, an arrangement akin to alloparenting. Another measure could be encouraging friendships between children in different school years, to mirror the unsupervised mixed - age playgrounds in hunter - gatherer communities.

        In a paper published in the Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, researchers said that the western nuclear family was a recent invention which broke with evolutionary history. This abrupt shift to an “intensive mothering narrative”, which suggests that mothers should manage childcare alone, was likely to have been harmful. “Such narratives can lead to maternal exhaustion and have dangerous consequences,” they wrote.

        By contrast, in hunter - gatherer societies adults other than the parents can provide almost half of a child’s care. One previous study looked at the Efé people of the Democratic Republic of Congo. It found that infants had an average of 14 alloparents a day by the time they were 18 weeks old, and were passed between caregivers eight times an hour.

        Chaudhary said that parents now have less childcare support from family and social networks than during most of humans’ evolutionary history, but introducing additional caregivers could reduce stress and maternal depression, which could have a “knock - on” benefit to a child’s wellbeing. An infant born to a hunter - gatherer society could have more than ten caregivers—this contrasts starkly to nursery settings in the UK where regulations call for a ratio of one carer to four children aged two to three.

        While hunter - gatherer children learnt from observation and imitation in mixed - age playgrounds, researchers said that western “instructive teaching”, where pupils are asked to sit still, may contribute to conditions such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Chaudhary said that Britain should explore the possibility that older siblings helping their parents “might also enhance their own social development.”

1.According to the first two paragraphs, alloparenting refers to the practice of
[A] sharing childcare among community members.

第二篇文章

        研究人员指出，从非洲狩猎采集者那里获得的育儿经验，可能是培养出更满足的孩子的关键。这一观点基于对博茨瓦纳昆族等社群的研究，在这些社群中，每个孩子都由许多成年人照顾。年仅四岁的昆族孩子就会帮忙照顾更小的孩子，而且 “背婴儿”（用背带背着婴儿）被视为常规做法。

        剑桥大学的进化人类学家尼基尔・乔杜里博士表示，这些被称为 “异亲抚养” 的做法，能减少孩子和父母的焦虑。

        儿童精神病学家安妮・斯瓦内普尔博士认为，有办法将这些做法融入西方生活。在德国，有一个项目将养老院和托儿所配对。养老院的居民帮忙照顾孩子，这种安排类似于异亲抚养。另一个措施可以是鼓励不同年级的孩子建立友谊，以效仿狩猎采集社群中无人监管的混龄游乐场。

        研究人员在《儿童心理学与精神病学杂志》上发表的一篇论文中指出，西方的核心家庭是一项较新的发明，它与进化史相悖。这种突然转向 “高强度母育模式”（即认为母亲应该独自承担育儿责任）的做法可能有害。他们写道：“这种观念会导致母亲精疲力竭，并产生危险后果。”

        相比之下，在狩猎采集社会中，除父母之外的成年人几乎可以承担对孩子一半的照顾。此前有一项针对刚果民主共和国埃菲人的研究。研究发现，婴儿在 18 周大时，平均每天有 14 个异亲照顾者，每小时会在照顾者之间传递八次。

        乔杜里表示，与人类进化史上的大部分时期相比，现在的父母从家庭和社交网络中得到的育儿支持更少，但引入更多照顾者可以减轻压力和母亲的抑郁情绪，这对孩子的幸福会产生 “连锁” 益处。在狩猎采集社会出生的婴儿可能有十多个照顾者，这与英国托儿所的情况形成鲜明对比，英国的规定要求照顾者与两到三岁儿童的比例为 1:4 。

        研究人员称，狩猎采集社会的孩子在混龄游乐场通过观察和模仿学习，而西方 “指导性教学”（要求学生静坐）可能会引发注意缺陷多动障碍等问题。乔杜里说，英国应该探索让年长的兄弟姐妹帮助父母这种做法，“这也可能促进他们自身的社会发展”。

解析

1.答案：A
解析：根据前两段，尤其是第一段中博茨瓦纳昆族社群里多个成年人照顾孩子，以及第二段提到的 “alloparenting” 能减少孩子和父母的焦虑，可知 “alloparenting” 指社区成员共同分担育儿责任，A 选项 “sharing childcare among community members”（社区成员共同分担育儿责任）正确。B 选项 “assigning babies to specific adult caregivers”（为婴儿指定特定的成人照顾者）、C 选项 “teaching parenting skills to older children”（向年长儿童传授育儿技能）、D 选项 “carrying infants around by their parents”（父母带着婴儿四处走动）均不符合文意。

2.答案：B
解析：第三段提到德国将养老院和托儿所配对，居民帮忙照顾孩子，此安排类似于 “alloparenting” ，且前文提到有办法将 “alloparenting” 融入西方生活，所以该例子是为了说明将 “alloparenting” 融入西方社会的一种方式，B 选项 “an approach to integrating alloparenting into western society”（将异亲抚养融入西方社会的一种方式）正确。A 选项 “an attempt to facilitate intergenerational communication”（促进代际交流的尝试）并非主要目的；C 选项 “the conventional parenting style in western culture”（西方文化中的传统育儿方式），德国的这个项目不是传统育儿方式；D 选项 “the differences between western and African ways of living”（西方和非洲生活方式的差异），例子重点不是体现生活方式差异。

3.答案：D
解析：第四段指出西方核心家庭是较新发明，打破了进化史，“intensive mothering narrative” 是突然转向且有害的，说明这种模式偏离了进化的轨道，D 选项 “departs from the course of evolution”（偏离进化的轨道）正确。A 选项 “alleviates parenting pressure”（减轻育儿压力）与原文中该模式会导致母亲精疲力竭相悖；B 选项 “consolidates family relationships”（巩固家庭关系）文中未提及；C 选项 “results in the child - centered family”（导致以孩子为中心的家庭），文中未表明该模式有此结果。

4.答案：C
解析：第六段将狩猎采集社会婴儿有众多照顾者与英国托儿所照顾者与儿童比例（1:4 ）对比，暗示英国托儿所应改善照顾者与儿童的比例，C 选项 “They ought to improve their carer - to - child ratio”（它们应该改善照顾者与儿童的比例）正确。A 选项 “They tend to fall short of official requirements”（它们往往达不到官方要求）文中未提及；B 选项 “They have difficulty finding enough caregivers”（它们很难找到足够的照顾者），未提及找照顾者困难；D 选项 “They should try to prevent parental depression”（它们应该努力防止父母抑郁），英国托儿所规定主要涉及照顾者与儿童比例，与防止父母抑郁无关。

5.答案：B
解析：文章围绕从非洲狩猎采集者育儿方式（异亲抚养）对西方育儿的启示展开，指出西方可借鉴这些方式培养更幸福的孩子，B 选项 “For a Happier Family, Learn from the Hunter - gatherers”（为了更幸福的家庭，向狩猎采集者学习）能概括文章主旨。A 选项 “Instructive Teaching: A Dilemma for Anxious Parents”（指导性教学：焦虑父母的困境）只涉及文章部分内容；C 选项 “Mixed - age Playgroup, a Better Choice for Lonely Children”（混龄游戏小组，孤独孩子的更好选择）也不全面；D 选项 “Tracing the History of Parenting: from Africa to Europe”（追溯育儿史：从非洲到欧洲），文章重点不是追溯育儿史。

        A Polish digital artist who uses classical painting styles to create dreamy fantasy landscapes, Greg Rutkowski has made illustrations for games such as Dungeons & Dragons and Magic: The Gathering. And he’s become a sudden hit in the new world of text - to - image AI generation.

        His distinctive style is now one of the most commonly used prompts in the new open - source AI art generator Stable Diffusion. The tool, along with other popular image - generation AI models, allows anyone to create impressive images based on text prompts. For example, type in “Wizard with sword and a glowing orb of magic fire fights a fierce dragon Greg Rutkowski,” and the system will produce something that looks not a million miles away from works in Rutkowski’s style.

        But these open - source programs are built by scraping images from the internet, often without permission and proper attribution to artists. As a result, they are raising tricky questions about ethics and copyright. And artists like Rutkowski have had enough.

        According to the website Lexica, which tracks over 10 million images and prompts generated by Stable Diffusion, Rutkowski’s name has been used as a prompt around 93,000 times. Rutkowski was initially surprised but thought it might be a good way to reach new audiences. Then he tried searching for his name to see if a piece he had worked on had been published. The online search brought back work that had his name attached to it but wasn’t his.

        “It’s been just a month. What about in a year? I probably won’t be able to find my work out there because the internet will be flooded with AI art,” Rutkowski says. “That’s concerning.”

        Other artists besides Rutkowski have been surprised by the apparent popularity of their work in text - to - image generators—and some are now fighting back. Karla Ortiz, an illustrator based in San Francisco who found her work in Stable Diffusion’s data set, has been raising awareness about the issues around AI art and copyright.

        Artists say they risk losing income as people start using AI - generated images based on copyrighted material for commercial purposes. But it’s also a lot more personal, Ortiz says, arguing that because art is so closely linked to a person, it could raise data protection and privacy problems.

        “There is a coalition growing within artist industries to figure out how to tackle or mitigate this,” says Ortiz. The group is in its early days of mobilization, which could involve pushing for new policies or regulation. One suggestion is that AI models could be trained on images in the public domain, and AI companies could forge partnerships with museums and artists, Ortiz says.

1.What can be learned about Rutkowski from the first two paragraphs?
[A] He is enthusiastic about using AI models.
[B] He is popular with the users of an AI art generator.
[C] He attracts admiration from other illustrators.
[D] He specializes in classical painting digitalization.

2.The problem with open-source AI art generators is that they
[A] lack flexibility in responding to prompts.
[B] produce artworks in unpredictable styles.
[C] make unauthorized use of online images.
[D] collect user information without consent.

3.After searching online, Rutkowski found
[A] a unique way to reach audiences.
[B] a new method to identify AI images.
[C] AI-generated work bearing his name.
[D] heated disputes regarding his copyright.

4.According to Ortiz, AI companies are advised to
[A] campaign for new policies or regulation.
[B] offer their services to public institutions.
[C] strengthen their relationships with AI users.
[D] adopt a different strategy for AI model training.

5.What is the text mainly about?
[A] Artists’ responses to AI art generation.

        格雷格・鲁特科夫斯基是一位波兰数字艺术家，他运用古典绘画风格创作梦幻般的幻想风景，曾为《龙与地下城》和《万智牌》等游戏绘制插图。他在文本生成图像的人工智能领域突然走红。

        他独特的风格如今是新的开源人工智能艺术生成器 Stable Diffusion 中最常用的提示词之一。这个工具，以及其他流行的图像生成人工智能模型，能让任何人根据文本提示创作出令人印象深刻的图像。例如，输入 “手持宝剑、带着魔法火焰发光球体的巫师与凶猛巨龙战斗格雷格・鲁特科夫斯基” ，系统生成的作品看起来与鲁特科夫斯基风格的作品极为相似。

        但这些开源程序是通过从互联网上抓取图像构建的，而且往往未经艺术家许可，也没有给予恰当署名。因此，它们引发了有关伦理和版权的棘手问题。像鲁特科夫斯基这样的艺术家已经受够了。

        据追踪 Stable Diffusion 生成的 1000 多万张图像和提示词的网站 Lexica 统计，鲁特科夫斯基的名字作为提示词被使用了约 93000 次。鲁特科夫斯基起初感到惊讶，但认为这可能是接触新受众的好方法。然后他试着搜索自己的名字，想看看自己参与创作的作品是否被发布了。在线搜索结果显示，带有他名字的作品却并非出自他手。

        鲁特科夫斯基说：“才过了一个月。一年后会怎样？我可能都找不到自己的作品了，因为互联网将充斥着人工智能生成的艺术作品。这令人担忧。”

        除鲁特科夫斯基之外，其他艺术家也对自己的作品在文本生成图像工具中广受欢迎感到惊讶，而且一些人正在反击。旧金山的插画师卡拉・奥尔蒂斯发现自己的作品出现在 Stable Diffusion 的数据集中，她一直在提高人们对人工智能艺术和版权问题的认识。

        艺术家们表示，随着人们开始将基于受版权保护材料生成的人工智能图像用于商业目的，他们面临收入损失的风险。但奥尔蒂斯说，这也涉及更多个人层面的问题，因为艺术与个人紧密相连，这可能会引发数据保护和隐私问题。

        奥尔蒂斯说：“艺术家行业内正在形成一个联盟，试图找出解决或缓解这些问题的办法。” 这个组织正处于动员初期，可能会推动制定新政策或法规。有人建议人工智能模型可以使用公共领域的图像进行训练，人工智能公司可以与博物馆和艺术家建立合作关系。

解析

1.答案：B
解析：前两段提到鲁特科夫斯基的风格在开源人工智能艺术生成器 Stable Diffusion 中是常用提示词，输入相关提示词系统能生成类似他风格的作品，说明他在人工智能艺术生成器用户中很受欢迎，B 选项 “He is popular with the users of an AI art generator”（他在人工智能艺术生成器的用户中很受欢迎）正确。A 选项 “He is enthusiastic about using AI models”（他热衷于使用人工智能模型），文中他对人工智能模型抓取图像用于生成作品表示担忧，并非热衷；C 选项 “He attracts admiration from other illustrators”（他受到其他插画师的钦佩），文中未提及其他插画师对他的钦佩；D 选项 “He specializes in classical painting digitalization”（他专门从事古典绘画数字化），他是用古典绘画风格创作数字艺术，并非专门从事古典绘画数字化。

2.答案：C
解析：第三段明确指出这些开源程序通过从互联网上抓取图像构建，且往往未经艺术家许可，也未恰当署名，C 选项 “make unauthorized use of online images”（未经授权使用网络图像）正确。A 选项 “lack flexibility in responding to prompts”（对提示词的响应缺乏灵活性）、B 选项 “produce artworks in unpredictable styles”（生成风格不可预测的艺术作品）、D 选项 “collect user information without consent”（未经同意收集用户信息）在文中均未提及。

3.答案：C
解析：第四段提到鲁特科夫斯基搜索自己名字时，发现带有他名字的作品却不是他的，即人工智能生成的作品署着他的名，C 选项 “AI - generated work bearing his name”（署有他名字的人工智能生成作品）正确。A 选项 “a unique way to reach audiences”（接触受众的独特方式）是他最初对自己名字被用作提示词的想法，不是搜索后的发现；B 选项 “a new method to identify AI images”（识别人工智能图像的新方法）文中未提及；D 选项 “heated disputes regarding his copyright”（关于他版权的激烈争议），搜索后他只是发现非自己创作却署自己名的作品，未提及激烈争议。

4.答案：D
解析：根据最后一段奥尔蒂斯所说，有人建议人工智能模型可以使用公共领域的图像进行训练，即建议人工智能公司采用不同的人工智能模型训练策略，D 选项 “adopt a different strategy for AI model training”（采用不同的人工智能模型训练策略）正确。A 选项 “campaign for new policies or regulation”（推动新政策或法规），是联盟可能做的事，不是对人工智能公司的建议；B 选项 “offer their services to public institutions”（向公共机构提供服务）、C 选项 “strengthen their relationships with AI users”（加强与人工智能用户的关系）文中未提及。

5.答案：A

        The miracle of the Chesapeake Bay lies not in its depths, but in the complexity of its natural construction, the interaction of fresh and saline waters, and the mix of land and water. The shallows provide homes for hundreds of species while storing floodwaters, filtering pollutants from water, and protecting nearby communities from potentially destructive storm surges.

        All this was put at great risk late last month, when the U.S. Supreme Court issued a ruling in an Idaho case that provides the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) far less authority to regulate wetlands and waterways. Specifically, a 5 - 4 majority decided that wetlands protected by the EPA under its Clean Water Act authority must have a “continuous surface connection” to bodies of water. This narrowing of the regulatory scope was a victory for builders, mining operators and other commercial interests often at odds with environmental rules. And it carries “significant repercussions for water quality and flood control throughout the United States,” as Justice Brett Kavanaugh observed.

        In Maryland, the good news is that there are many state laws in place that provide wetlands protections. But that’s a very shortsighted view, particularly when it comes to the Chesapeake Bay. The reality is that water, and the pollutants that so often come with it, don’t respect state boundaries. The Chesapeake Bay draws from a 64,000 - square - mile watershed that extends into Virginia, Pennsylvania, New York, West Virginia, the District of Columbia and Delaware. Will those jurisdictions extend the same protections now denied under Sackett v. EPA? Perhaps some, but all? That seems unlikely.

        It is too easy, and misleading, to see such court rulings as merely standing up for the rights of land owners when the consequences can be so dire for their neighbors. And it’s a reminder that the EPA’s involvement in the Chesapeake Bay Program has long been crucial as the means to transcend the influence of deep - pocketed special interests in neighboring states. Pennsylvania farmers, to use one telling example, aren’t thinking about next year’s blue crab harvest in Maryland when they decide whether to spread animal waste on their fields, yet the runoff into nearby creeks can have enormous impact downstream.

        And so we would call on state lawmakers from Richmond to Albany to consider reviewing their own wetlands protections and see for themselves the enormous stakes involved. We can offer them a visit to Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge in Dorchester County where bald eagles fly over tidal marshes so shallow you could not paddle a boat across them but teaming with aquatic life. It’s worth the scenic drive.

1.The Chesapeake Bay is described in Paragraph 1 as
[A] a valuable natural environment.
[B] a controversial conservation area.
[C] a place with commercial potential.
[D] a headache for nearby communities.

2.The U.S. Supreme Court's ruling in the Idaho case
[A] reinforces water pollution control.

        上个月晚些时候，这一切都面临巨大风险，当时美国最高法院对爱达荷州的一个案件做出裁决，大幅削弱了美国环境保护署（EPA）对湿地和水道的监管权力。具体来说，以 5 票对 4 票的多数决定，由环境保护署依据《清洁水法》监管的湿地必须与水体有 “连续的表面连接” 。这种监管范围的缩小对于建筑商、矿业运营商以及其他常与环境规则相悖的商业利益相关者来说是一场胜利。正如大法官布雷特・卡瓦诺所指出的，这对美国各地的水质和防洪 “产生重大影响” 。

        在马里兰州，好消息是有许多州法律对湿地提供保护。但这是一种非常短视的观点，尤其是涉及切萨皮克湾时。现实情况是，水以及常随水而来的污染物并不受州界限制。切萨皮克湾的集水区面积达 6.4 万平方英里，延伸至弗吉尼亚州、宾夕法尼亚州、纽约州、西弗吉尼亚州、哥伦比亚特区和特拉华州。这些辖区会给予现在在 “萨克特诉环境保护署案” 中被否定的相同保护措施吗？也许有些会，但全部都会吗？这似乎不太可能。

        将这样的法院裁决仅仅视为维护土地所有者的权利，既容易误导人，又目光短浅，因为其后果对邻居可能极为严重。这也提醒我们，长期以来，环境保护署参与切萨皮克湾项目至关重要，它是超越邻州财大气粗的特殊利益集团影响的手段。举个典型例子，宾夕法尼亚州的农民在决定是否在田地里施用动物粪便时，不会考虑马里兰州明年的蓝蟹捕捞情况，但流入附近小溪的径流可能会对下游产生巨大影响。

        因此，我们呼吁从里士满到奥尔巴尼的各州立法者考虑审查各自的湿地保护措施，并亲自认识到其中涉及的重大利害关系。我们可以邀请他们参观多切斯特县的黑水国家野生动物保护区，在那里，秃鹰在潮汐沼泽上空飞翔，沼泽浅得无法划船穿过，但却充满了水生生物。这趟风景优美的旅程是值得的。

解析

1.答案：A
解析：第一段描述切萨皮克湾浅滩为众多物种提供栖息地、储存洪水、过滤污染物、保护社区等，体现出它是宝贵的自然环境，A 选项 “a valuable natural environment”（宝贵的自然环境）正确。B 选项 “a controversial conservation area”（有争议的保护区），文中未提及争议；C 选项 “a place with commercial potential”（有商业潜力的地方），未重点提及商业潜力；D 选项 “a headache for nearby communities”（给附近社区带来麻烦的地方）与原文描述不符。

2.答案：B
解析：第二段提到美国最高法院裁决大幅削弱了美国环境保护署（EPA）对湿地和水道的监管权力，B 选项 “weakens the EPA’s regulatory power”（削弱了环境保护署的监管权力）正确。A 选项 “reinforces water pollution control”（加强水污染控制）与原文相悖；C 选项 “will end conflicts among local residents”（将结束当地居民之间的冲突），文中未提及；D 选项 “may face opposition from mining operators”（可能面临矿业运营商的反对），矿业运营商是裁决受益者，不会反对。

3.答案：A
解析：从文中作者指出切萨皮克湾面临风险，如最高法院裁决削弱监管权力、州法律保护短视等内容可看出，作者对切萨皮克湾未来感到担忧，A 选项 “Worried”（担忧的）正确。B 选项 “Puzzled”（困惑的）、C 选项 “Relieved”（宽慰的）、D 选项 “Encouraged”（受鼓舞的）均不符合作者态度。

4.答案：D
解析：第四段提到环境保护署参与切萨皮克湾项目至关重要，是超越邻州特殊利益集团影响的手段，说明它能确保保护工作的协调，D 选项 “It has ensured the coordination of protection efforts”（它确保了保护工作的协调）正确。A 选项 “It has restored the balance among neighboring jurisdictions”（它恢复了邻州辖区之间的平衡），文中未提及恢复平衡；B 选项 “It has triggered a radical reform in commercial fisheries”（它引发了商业渔业的彻底改革），未提及商业渔业改革；C 选项 “It has set a fine example of respecting state authorities”（它树立了尊重州政府权力的良好榜样），与原文不符。

5.答案：B
解析：最后一段作者呼吁各州立法者审查湿地保护措施，认识到其中利害关系，说明作者认为州立法者应重视湿地保护，B 选项 “attach due importance to wetlands protections”（充分重视湿地保护）正确。A 选项 “be cautious about the influence of landowners”（对土地所有者的影响持谨慎态度）、C 选项 “recognize the need to expand wildlife refuges”（认识到扩大野生动物保护区的必要性）、D 选项 “improve the wellbeing of endangered species”（改善濒危物种的福祉）均不是作者呼吁立法者做的主要事情。

        (41) Hannah
        Simply, there are people in Nigeria who cannot travel to the Smithsonian Institution to see that part of their history and culture represented by the Benin Bronzes. These should be available to them as part of their cultural heritage and history and as a source of national pride. There is no good reason that these artifacts should be beyond the ordinary reach of the educational objectives or inspiration of the generations to which they were left. They serve no purpose in a museum in the United States or elsewhere except as curious objects. They cannot be compared to works of art produced for sale which can be passed from hand to hand and place to place by purchase.

        (42) Buck
        We know very exact reproductions of artwork can be and are regularly produced. Perhaps museums and governments might explore some role for the use of nearly exact reproductions as a means of resolving issues relating to returning works of art and antiquities. The context of any exhibit is more important to me than whether the object being displayed is 2000 years old or 2 months old. In many cases the experts have a hard time agreeing on what is the real object and what is a forgery. Again, the story an exhibit is trying to tell is what matters. The monetary value of the objects on display is a distant second place in importance.

        (43) Sara
        When visiting the Baltimore Museum of Art, I came across a magnificent 15th - century Chinese sculpture. It inspired me to learn more about the culture that it represented. Artifacts in museums have the power to inspire, and perhaps spark that need to learn and understand the nature of their creators. Having said that, I do feel that whatever artifacts find their way to public museums should, in fact, be sanctioned as having been obtained on loan, legally purchased, or obtained by treaty. Stealing artifacts from other peoples’ cultures is obscene; it robs not only the physical objects, but the dignity and spirit of their creators.

        (44) Victor
        Ancient art that is displayed in foreign countries by all means should be returned to the original country. The foreign countries have no right to hold back returning the items. I would ask that the foreign nations and the original country discuss the terms of transfer. Yes, there is the risk that the original，country will not have as good security as do the foreign countries. But look at what happened to Boston’s Gardner Museum theft in 1990, including the loss of Rembrandt, Vermeer, Manet, and other masterpieces. Nothing is absolutely safe, nowhere. And now Climate Change agitators are attacking publicly displayed works in European museums.

        (45) Julia
        To those of you in the comments section who are having strong feelings about artifacts being removed from cities in the US and Britain and returned to their countries of origin, I would，ask you to consider: why do you think Americans have more of a right to easily access the Benin Bronzes than the people of Nigeria? Why are people who live within a day’s drive of London entitled to go and see the Elgin Marbles whenever they want, but the people of Athens aren’t? What intrinsic factors make the West a suitable home for these artifacts but preclude them from being ，preserved and displayed，by their countries of origin? If your conclusion is that the West is better able to preserve these artifacts, think about why you’re assuming that to be true.

[A] It is clear that the countries of origin have never been compensated for the stolen artifacts.
[B] It is a flawed line of reasoning to argue against returning artifacts to their countries of origin.
[C] Museum visitors can still learn as much from artifacts’ copies after the originals are returned.
[D] Reproductions, even if perfectly made, cannot take the place of the authentic objects.
[E] The real value of artifacts can only be recognized in their countries of origin rather than anywhere else.
[F] Ways to get artifacts from other countries must be decent and lawful.
[G] Concern over security is no excuse for refusing to return artifacts to their countries of origin.

说明：

阅读以下关于美国博物馆将文物归还原属国的报告的评论，以及总结这些评论的陈述列表。从 A - G 选项中为每个编号（41 - 45）对应的评论者选择最合适的陈述。有两个选项是多余的。在答题卡上作答。（10 分）

（41）汉娜
        很简单，尼日利亚有些人无法前往史密森学会，去瞻仰贝宁青铜器所代表的他们的部分历史和文化。这些青铜器作为他们文化遗产和历史的一部分，以及民族自豪感的来源，应该为他们所拥有。没有充分的理由表明，这些文物不应为其所属的几代人在教育目标或启发方面所能接触到。它们在美国或其他地方的博物馆里，除了作为奇珍异物外毫无用处。它们与为销售而创作的艺术品不同，后者可以通过购买在人们手中和不同地方流转。

（42）巴克
        我们知道，艺术品的精确复制品是可以而且经常被制作出来的。也许博物馆和政府可以探索使用近乎精确的复制品，以此作为解决与归还艺术品和文物相关问题的一种方式。对我来说，任何展览的背景比所展示的物品是有 2000 年历史还是 2 个月历史更为重要。在很多情况下，专家们很难就什么是真品、什么是赝品达成一致。同样，展览想要讲述的故事才是关键。展品的货币价值在重要性方面远远排在第二位。

（43）萨拉
        参观巴尔的摩艺术博物馆时，我偶然看到一件精美的 15 世纪中国雕塑。它激励我去更多地了解它所代表的文化。博物馆里的文物具有激励作用，或许能激发人们去学习和了解其创作者本质的需求。话虽如此，我确实认为，进入公共博物馆的任何文物都应该是通过合法租借、合法购买或条约获取的。从其他民族文化中盗窃文物是不道德的；这不仅夺走了实物，还剥夺了其创作者的尊严和精神。

（44）维克多
        在外国展出的古代艺术品无论如何都应该归还原属国。外国没有权利阻止归还这些物品。我建议外国和原属国商讨移交的条款。诚然，存在这样的风险，即原属国的安保可能不如外国。但是看看 1990 年波士顿加德纳博物馆被盗事件，包括伦勃朗、维米尔、马奈等大师的作品失窃。没有什么地方是绝对安全的。而且现在，气候变化活动人士正在袭击欧洲博物馆公开展出的作品。

（45）朱莉娅
        对于评论区那些强烈反对将文物从美国和英国的城市移走并归还原属国的人，我希望你们考虑：为什么你们认为美国人比尼日利亚人更有权利轻易看到贝宁青铜器？为什么住在伦敦一日车程范围内的人有权随时去参观埃尔金大理石雕，而雅典人却不行？是什么内在因素使得西方成为这些文物的合适归宿，却阻止它们在原属国被保存和展出？如果你们的结论是西方更有能力保存这些文物，想想你们为什么会这样认为。

解析

41.E

        41 题：汉娜认为贝宁青铜器应该归还给尼日利亚，因为尼日利亚人无法前往美国博物馆瞻仰，这些文物对他们来说是文化遗产和民族自豪感的来源，在美国博物馆只是奇珍异物，体现了文物在原属国才能真正体现价值，对应 E 选项 “The real value of artifacts can only be recognized in their countries of origin rather than anywhere else.”（文物的真正价值只有在其原属国才能被认可，而不是在其他任何地方）。

42.C

        42 题：巴克提出可以用近乎精确的复制品来解决文物归还问题，认为展览背景比展品本身年代等更重要，意味着即使文物原件被归还，参观者从复制品中也能学到很多，对应 C 选项 “Museum visitors can still learn as much from artifacts’ copies after the originals are returned.”（在文物原件被归还后，博物馆参观者从复制品中仍能学到同样多的东西）。

43.F

        43 题：萨拉提到进入博物馆的文物应该通过合法途径获取，盗窃文物是不道德的，强调获取文物的方式要正当合法，对应 F 选项 “Ways to get artifacts from other countries must be decent and lawful.”（从其他国家获取文物的方式必须正当合法。

44.G

        44 题：维克多主张外国展出的古代艺术品应归还原属国，虽然原属国可能安保不如外国，但不能以此为借口不归还，对应 G 选项 “Concern over security is no excuse for refusing to return artifacts to their countries of origin.”（对安保的担忧不能成为拒绝将文物归还原属国的借口)。

45.B

        45 题：朱莉娅对反对文物归还的观点提出质疑，认为反对文物归还原属国的推理是有缺陷的，对应 B 选项 “It is a flawed line of reasoning to argue against returning artifacts to their countries of origin.”（反对将文物归还原属国的推理是有缺陷的）。

语法点：“Having said that” 是现在分词的完成式作时间状语，表示动作发生在主句动作之前。“that whatever artifacts find their way to public museums should...” 是 that 引导的宾语从句，作 feel 的宾语，在这个宾语从句中，“whatever artifacts find their way to public museums” 是主语从句。

解答题目的技巧

理解评论核心观点：仔细阅读每个评论者的言论，抓住其核心观点和态度。比如汉娜强调文物对原属国人民的文化意义和价值，要归还原属国；巴克关注用复制品解决文物归还问题等。可以通过标记关键词、关键句来辅助理解。

分析选项特征：逐一分析选项内容，明确每个选项的侧重点。例如 A 选项强调原属国未得到赔偿，B 选项针对反对文物归还的推理进行评价等。

匹配评论与选项：将评论者的观点与选项进行细致比对，看哪个选项能最准确地概括或与评论内容相契合。注意不要被选项中部分相似表述误导，要整体理解选项和评论的含义。比如看到评论中提到安保问题，要思考与选项中关于安保和文物归还关系的表述是否一致。

排除干扰项：对于明显不符合评论内容的选项，及时排除。比如某个评论未涉及文物赔偿问题，那么关于赔偿的选项就可排除。同时，若遇到不确定的选项，可先标记，继续分析其他选项，通过对比来确定最合适的答案。

Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese. Write your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. (10 points)

        “Elephants never forget”—or so they say—and that piece of folklore seems to have some foundation.

        The African savanna elephant, also known as the African bush elephant, is distributed across 37 African countries. They move between a variety of habitats, including forests, grasslands, woodlands, wetlands and agricultural land. (46) They sometimes travel more than sixty miles to find food or water, and are very good at working out where other elephants are—even when they are out of sight. Using tracking devices, researchers have shown that they have “remarkable spatial acuity.” When finding their way to waterholes, they headed off in exactly the right direction, on one occasion from a distance of roughly thirty miles. What is more, they almost always seem to choose the nearest waterhole. (47) The researchers are convinced that the elephants always know precisely where they are in relation to all the resources they need, and can therefore take shortcuts, as well as following familiar routes.

        Although the cues used by African elephants for long - distance navigation are not yet understood, smell may well play a part.

        Elephants are very choosy eaters, but until recently little was known about how they selected their food. (48) One possibility was that they merely used their eyes and tried out the plants they found, but that would probably result in a lot of wasted time and energy, not least because their eyesight is actually not very good.

        (49) The volatile chemicals produced by plants can be carried a long way, and they are very characteristic: Each plant or tree has its own particular odor signature. What is more, they can be detected even when they are not actually visible. New research suggests that smell is a crucial factor in guiding elephants—and probably other herbivores—to the best food resources.

        The researchers first established what kinds of plant the elephants preferred either to eat or avoid when foraging freely. They then set up a “food station” experiment, in which they gave the elephants a series of choices based only on smell. (50) The experiment showed that elephants may well use smell to identify patches of trees that are good to eat, and secondly to assess the quality of the trees within each patch. Free - ranging elephants presumably also use this information to locate their preferred food.

        Their well - developed hippocampal structures may enable elephants, like rats and people, to construct cognitive maps.

仔细阅读下面的文章，然后将划线部分翻译成中文。在答题卡上作答。（10 分）

        “大象永远不会忘记” —— 人们是这么说的 —— 这句民间俗语似乎有些道理。

        非洲草原象，也被称为非洲丛林象，分布在 37 个非洲国家。它们在多种栖息地之间迁徙，包括森林、草原、林地、湿地和农田。（46）它们有时会跋涉六十多英里去寻找食物或水源，而且非常擅长确定其他大象的位置，即便那些大象在视线之外。研究人员通过使用追踪设备发现，它们具有 “非凡的空间感知能力” 。在寻找水源地时，它们总能朝着正确的方向前进，有一次甚至是从大约三十英里外出发的。而且，它们似乎几乎总是会选择最近的水源地。（47）研究人员确信，大象总能精确地知道自己相对于所需资源的位置，因此它们既能抄近路，也能沿着熟悉的路线走。

        虽然非洲象用于长途导航的线索尚未被完全了解，但嗅觉很可能起到了作用。

        大象对食物非常挑剔，但直到最近，人们对它们如何选择食物还知之甚少。（48）一种可能是，它们仅仅依靠视觉，去尝试找到的植物，但这可能会浪费大量时间和精力，尤其是因为它们的视力实际上并不好。

        （49）植物产生的挥发性化学物质可以传播很远，而且具有很强的特征性：每种植物或树木都有其独特的气味标识。此外，即使这些化学物质实际上不可见，也能被探测到。新的研究表明，嗅觉是引导大象，可能还有其他食草动物，找到最佳食物来源的关键因素。

        研究人员首先确定了大象在自由觅食时喜欢吃或避开哪些种类的植物。然后他们设置了一个 “食物站” 实验，在实验中只让大象根据气味进行一系列选择。（50）实验表明，大象很可能利用嗅觉来识别哪些树林适合食用，其次还会评估每个树林中树木的质量。自由活动的大象大概也会利用这些信息来找到它们喜欢的食物。

        它们发达的海马体结构可能使大象，像老鼠和人类一样，构建认知地图。

解析

46.它们有时会行进60多英里以寻找食物或水源，而且非常擅长判断其他大象的位置——即使后者位于其视线范围之外。

（46）：“travel more than sixty miles” 意思是 “跋涉六十多英里” ；“working out” 在这里是 “确定；弄清楚” 的意思；“out of sight” 意为 “在视线之外” 。翻译时注意语序调整，使译文符合中文表达习惯。

47.研究人员确信，这些大象总是能够很精确地知道它们所需的所有资源之间的相对位置，因此除了走熟路，它们还能走捷径。

（47）：“are convinced that” 表示 “确信；坚信” ；“in relation to” 意为 “关于；相对于” ；“take shortcuts” 是 “抄近路” 。准确理解短语含义，通顺地组织译文。

48.其中一种可能的解释是，它们仅靠它们的眼镜来寻觅食物，并试吃它们寻觅到的织物，但这种情况可能会浪费大量的时间和精力，尤其是因为它们的视力实际上并不怎么好。

（48）：“one possibility was that...” 是 “一种可能是……” 的表达；“tried out” 是 “尝试” ；“not least because” 意为 “尤其是因为” 。注意从句的翻译和逻辑关系表达。

49.植物所产生的挥发性化学物质可以扩散很远的距离，而且这些物质还极具独特性：每种植物或树木都有自己特有的气味特征。

（49）：“volatile chemicals” 是 “挥发性化学物质” ；“odor signature” 可译为 “气味标识” 。准确翻译专业词汇，保证译文准确性。

50.实验表明，大象完全可以用嗅觉来辨别适宜食用的树丛，并评估每片树丛内树木的质量。

（50）：“may well” 是 “很可能” ；“patches of trees” 可理解为 “一片片树林” ；“assess the quality” 是 “评估质量” 。注意短语翻译和句子整体逻辑。

重难点语法

They sometimes travel more than sixty miles to find food or water, and are very good at working out where other elephants are—even when they are out of sight.

语法点：“to find food or water” 是动词不定式作目的状语。“where other elephants are” 是 where 引导的宾语从句，作 “working out” 的宾语。“even when they are out of sight” 是 when 引导的时间状语从句，even 起强调作用。

The researchers are convinced that the elephants always know precisely where they are in relation to all the resources they need, and can therefore take shortcuts, as well as following familiar routes.

语法点：“that the elephants always know precisely where they are in relation to all the resources they need” 是 that 引导的宾语从句，作 “are convinced” 的宾语。在这个宾语从句中，“where they are in relation to all the resources they need” 又是 where 引导的宾语从句，作 know 的宾语，其中 “they need” 是省略了关系代词 that 的定语从句，修饰 “resources” 。

One possibility was that they merely used their eyes and tried out the plants they found, but that would probably result in a lot of wasted time and energy, not least because their eyesight is actually not very good.

语法点：“that they merely used their eyes and tried out the plants they found” 是 that 引导的表语从句，作 was 的表语。“they found” 是省略了关系代词 that 的定语从句，修饰 “plants” 。“not least because their eyesight is actually not very good” 是 because 引导的原因状语从句。

解答题目的技巧

准确理解原文：仔细阅读文章，尤其是划线部分的上下文，把握句子在文中的含义和逻辑关系。遇到不认识的单词，先根据上下文猜测词义，若无法确定，再结合文章主题和背景知识进行推断。比如根据文章中关于大象觅食等内容，推测 “foraging” 与觅食相关。

分析句子结构：确定句子的主干和修饰成分，识别各类从句（如宾语从句、定语从句、状语从句等）及其引导词。对于长难句，可先划分句子结构，再逐一翻译各部分，最后按照中文表达习惯调整语序。例如翻译（47）句时，先分析出 “The researchers are convinced that...” 是主句，“that” 引导宾语从句，在宾语从句中又有多个成分，然后分别翻译并整合。

注意词汇翻译：对于重难点词汇，要准确翻译其含义，同时注意一些固定短语和搭配的翻译。如果遇到一词多义的情况，要根据上下文选择合适的词义。比如 “signature” 常见意思是 “签名” ，在文中 “odor signature” 应译为 “气味标识” 。

保证译文通顺：翻译完成后，检查译文是否通顺、符合中文表达习惯，避免出现生硬、晦涩的表述。适当增减词语，使句子更加流畅自然。比如在翻译一些状语从句时，可根据逻辑关系添加 “因为”“所以”“虽然” 等关联词。

第三部分写作

Part A

建议信

一、审题谋篇

1.“审题不清导致立意偏误” 的实例

        ①忽视格式要求，写成一篇关于中国古代科学家的报告，而不是针对 Paul 的问题给出回复的邮件。

        ②回复邮件中单纯提供关于某位中国古代科学家的事实信息，未就如何准备口头报告提供建议。

        ③因不认识或漏看 ancient 一词而错误地建议 Paul 将某位中国现当代科学家作为报告的主要内容。

2.解析题目指令，确定行文要点

        说明：建议信是一种用于提供专业或个人意见的书信。开篇可简单介绍写信的背景和目的，比如简要回顾对方在来信中提到的问题，进而引出自己的建议。主体段应详细、清晰地阐述建议，包括明确的指导、步骤或策略，以帮助收信人理解和实施这些建议。具体到本篇，在给出建议时既可提及具体的科学家名字，也可不提及；但不论提及与否，主体段的内容应始终围绕 “如何准备和呈现报告” 展开，较不建议通篇介绍某位科学家的生平事迹和杰出成就，因为对方的困惑是 “不知道如何准备报告”，而非 “不知道应该选择哪位科学家以及为何选择这位科学家”。结尾段可表达鼓励和支持，以及对收信人取得成功的信心，同时表示如果有进一步的问题或需要更多帮助，对方可以随时联系。

        句式变换：原句是一个简单句（I'm happy to do sth），可考虑将其改为包含 It 作形式主语的句子（It gives me great pleasure to do sth），提升语句的正式度和复杂度。

        高级范例：It gives me great pleasure to extend my assistance and offer advice on your upcoming oral report about an ancient Chinese scientist.

        第二段
        ①You can start by picking someone famous, like Zhang Heng or Zu Chongzhi.

        句式变换：开头句直接使用第二人称对来信者提出建议（You can start by doing sth），略显唐突和不礼貌，可考虑将其改为舍去第二人称且含情态动词 would 的句子（A good starting point would be doing sth），使语气更委婉和礼貌。

        高级范例：A good starting point would be selecting a notable figure, such as Zhang Heng or Zu Chongzhi.
        ②Learn about his life, big discoveries, and how he changed science and people.
        词汇表达:1) 将 learn about 替换为更高级的、更适用于学术语域的 probe into (深入了解), 表示详细研究或探究。2) 将代词 his 替换为指代更明确且性别中性的 the scientist's。3) 将 life 替换为语义范围更小、更贴合语境的 life stories (生平故事)。4) 将 big discoveries 替换为更高级的 major achievements (主要成就)。5) 将 how he changed science and people 替换为更简洁、更书面化的 impact on science and society (对科学和社会的影响)。6) 添加 use your school library and the Internet to (利用学校图书馆和互联网), 给出具体方法，使建议更实用。
        句式变换:1) 原句为祈使句 (暗含命令语气), 生硬唐突，略显失礼，可考虑添加传达 “建议” 之意的 you can 以使语气缓和。2) 在句首添加时间状语 After making your choice, 提供明确的行动顺序，增强与上句的语义连贯。
        高级范例：After making your choice, you can use your school library and the Internet to probe into the scientist's life stories, major achievements, and impact on science and society.
        ③This will be the main part of your talk.
        词汇表达:1) 将 This 替换 This research, 明确前句所提建议为 “搜索研究”。2) 将 main part 替换为更高级、更形象的 backbone (骨干；主要成分)。3) 将 talk 替换为更具体、更贴合题目要求的 report (报告)。
        句式变换：将原句的系表结构 will be the main part of... 替换为更学术化的谓宾结构 will form the backbone of...(构成…… 的主体内容)。
        高级范例：This research will form the backbone of your report.
        ④Add pictures and fun stories about the scientist to make it more interesting.
        词汇表达:1) 将 add 替换为更加正式和学术化的 incorporate (将…… 包括在内)。2) 将 pictures、fun stories 分别替换为更能体现词汇水平的 visuals (视觉元素)、interesting anecdotes (有趣的轶事)。3) 将 make it more interesting 替换为更高级、更贴合语境的 engage your audience (吸引听众的注意)。
        句式变换:1) 原句是以祈使句表达的简单直接的指令，略显生硬失礼，可考虑将其改写为动名词作主语的陈述句以提出建议 (Doing sth will be highly beneficial.)。2) 将目的状语 to do sth 提至句首，强调本条建议的原因和预期的结果，增加句子的说服力。
        高级范例：To engage your audience, incorporating visuals and interesting anecdotes about the scientist will be highly beneficial.
        ⑤Also, it's important to communicate well.
        词汇表达:1) 将 Also 替换为更正式的 Furthermore。2) 将 important 替换为更能体现词汇水平的 key (关键的)。
        句式变换:1) 添加固定表达 remember that...(记住……) 以强调本条建议的重要性 (注：虽应尽量避免使用祈使句形式的命令式表达，但 remember that... 可以起到强调的作用，故此处使用这一表达)。2) 将 “动词 + 副词” 结构 (communicate well) 替换为更符合学术写作特点的 “形容词 + 名词” 结构 (effective communication), 相应地，原句 it's important to communicate well 则修改为 effective communication is key。
        高级范例：Furthermore, remember that effective communication is key.
        ⑥You should speak in a clear and sure way. ⑦This may seem like old boring advice, but it can help make your talk better.
        词汇表达:1) 将 in a clear and sure way 替换为更书面化的 clearly and with confidence (清晰、自信地)。2) 将 advice 的定语 old boring 替换为更高级、更精辟的 clichéd (陈词滥调的)。3) 将 it can help do sth 替换为更书面化的 it is crucial for doing sth (这对于…… 至关重要)。4) 将 talk 替换为更具体的 presentation (演讲；报告)。5) 将 better 替换为更高级的 more powerful (更有感染力)。
        句式变换:1)⑥⑦句均为短小的句子，两句分立略显破碎，且⑦句已能够体现 “提建议” 这一意图，不需要⑥句中使用情态动词 should 进行建议，故可考虑将⑥⑦句整合为一个复合句。其中⑦句 This 回指⑥句中的 speak..., 可将其替换为动名词短语 speaking... 充当主语。

        高级范例：Speaking clearly and with confidence may seem like clichéd advice, but it is crucial for making your presentation more powerful.

        第三段

        ①I think if you do these things, your report will be great.

        词汇表达：1) 将 I think (that)... 替换为 I'm confident that..., 提高语气的确定性和说服力，加强鼓励效果。2) 将 things 替换为更高级、更书面化的 elements (元素)。3) 将 great 替换为更高级、更具体的 both informative and engaging (既内容丰富又引人入胜) 。

        句式变换：将条件状语从句 (if you do sth) 替换为更简洁的介词短语 (with sth) 。

        高级范例：I'm confident that with these elements, your report will be both informative and engaging.

        ②Contact me if you have more questions.

        词汇表达：1) 将 contact me 替换为更正式且更能体现词汇水平的 reach out (主动联系或寻求他人的帮助、信息或合作) 。2) 将 more 替换为更高级、更正式的 further, 暗示对更深入或更复杂问题的开放态度。

        句式变换：在祈使句前添加固定短语 feel free to..., 使语气更加友好和开放。

        高级范例：Feel free to reach out if you have further questions.

        ③Good luck!

        词汇表达：将 Good luck 替换为 Best of luck, 增强祝福的强度和正式度。

建造更多公园，方便居民健身、休闲

一、审题谋篇

“审题不清导致立意偏误” 的实例
        ①图画中有两人很守规矩地在步道上走路，有两人在草坪上奔跑，考生可能由此认为图画意在通过这一对比呼吁人们 “不要践踏草坪，要爱护公园里的一草一木”。
        ②考生可能忽略图画展现的积极面，仅根据图表所示 “公园数量增加” 主观认定图表意在批判 “城市建设缺乏合理的规划（一味建造公园，忽视了其他设施）”，并基于此展开论述。
        ③考生可能分别描述了图画和图表，但在论述时却没有将二者的内容（公园的使用情况和公园数量的增加）关联起来，分析相关的原因或影响。

结合全部可用信息，正确推导寓意

二、作文进阶

基础作文

        ①The picture on the left depicts a park. ②A young couple are walking in the park, and two children are running. ③A resident sees this scene and says, "The new small park near home is really great!" ④The chart on the right shows that the number of parks in a certain city has increased from 406 in 2020 to 670 in 2022.
        ①The picture indicates that parks can make people feel happy. ②Parks are of great importance to cities. ③They help clean the air, and people can see a lot of plants and animals there. ④Moreover, many people like doing exercise and having fun in parks. ⑤When more parks are built, people will have more opportunities to connect with nature and engage in physical activities. ⑥As a result, they will become healthier. ⑦Many local governments know these benefits very well, so they have built a large number of parks recently, just like the city shown in the chart.
        ①To conclude, parks are very important, because they help increase people's quality of life. ②The government should not focus only on new parks, but also on old ones.

参考译文

        ①左侧的图画描绘的是一座公园。②一对年轻情侣在园内散步，两个孩子在跑步。③看到这一幕，一位居民说道：“家门口新建的小公园真不错！”④右侧的图表显示，某市的公园数量从 2020 年的 406 座增至 2022 年的 670 座。
        ①图画表明，公园能使人感到幸福。②公园对城市至关重要。③公园有助于清洁空气，人们能在公园里看到许多动植物。④此外，许多人喜欢在公园里锻炼、玩乐。⑤公园建得越多，人们就越有机会接触大自然、参与锻炼。⑥他们就会变得更健康。⑦许多地方政府非常清楚这些好处，因而最近建了许多公园，就像图表所示的城市那样。
        ①总之，公园非常重要，因为它们有助于提高人们的生活质量。②政府不应只关注新公园，也应关注旧公园。

・分步进阶・

        第一段
        ①The picture on the left depicts a park. ②A young couple are walking in the park, and two children are running.
        词汇表达：1）可在①句 park 后添加介词短语 with a public fitness area，既使得对图画的描述更完整，又能与主旨 “公园为居民提供健身场地” 相关联。2）将②句的 walking 替换为表意相近但更高级的 strolling，还可在其后添加修饰词 leisurely (悠闲地)，既丰富用语，又能与主旨 “公园供居民休闲放松” 相关联。3）将②句的 running 替换为表意更准确的 jogging (慢跑锻炼)，还可在其后添加介词短语 behind them，既充实行文，又使得对图画的描述更细致、准确。
        句式变换：1）两句均提及图画的核心场景 “公园”，但①句信息明显过少，因此可将②句 in the park 改为 in which 置于句首，使之变换为非限制性定语从句，进而与①句合并。2）图画中 “年轻情侣散步” 和 “孩子慢跑锻炼” 同时发生，因此可将 and 改为 while，并删去其前的逗号，使原先的并列句变换为主从句，以丰富句式结构。
        高级范例：The picture on the left depicts a park with a public fitness area, in which a young couple are strolling leisurely while two children are jogging behind them.

        ③A resident sees this scene and says, "The new small park is really great!"
词汇表达：

1）可将 says 改为表意相近但更高级的 comments 或 remarks。

2）可将 new 改为更贴合图中人物话语且更高级的 newly - built。
3）句式变换：本句核心内容是居民所说的话，为体现信息的主次之分并丰富句式结构，可将 sees this scene 转换为分词短语 Seeing this scene 或形容词短语 Delighted by this scene (因这一幕而高兴) 置于句首，使其充当状语，此时需删去 and。
高级范例：

1）Seeing this scene, a resident remarks, "The newly - built small park near home is really great!"

2）Delighted by this scene, a resident comments, "The newly - built small park near home is really great!"

④The chart on the right shows that the number of parks in a certain city has increased from 406 in 2020 to 670 in 2022.
词汇表达：1）将 shows 替换为表意相近但更高级的 illustrates。

2）可在 increased 后添加 in/over the past/ last/recent three years 并用逗号将其与 from...to... 隔开，既充实行文，又能更完整地展现图表标题的内容。

        句式变换：可将简单的 that 宾语从句变换为名词短语 a (n) upward/growing/increasing trend in...，既丰富表达，又能直接点明图表呈现的上涨趋势。

        高级范例：The chart on the right illustrates an upward trend in the number of parks in a certain city over the past three years, from 406 in 2020 to 670 in 2022.

        第二段

        ①The picture indicates that parks can make people feel happy.

        词汇表达：

1）图画中的人物提到的 “家门口” 一词为关键信息，暗示 “在住宅区附近建造的公园能为居民提供更多方便”，为了体现这一点，可在 parks 后添加插入语 particularly/especially those close to/near residential areas/neighborhoods，前后用逗号与句子主体部分隔开。此外，还可在 those 后添加 conveniently situated/located (坐落在方便的位置)，既能更进一步丰富表达，又能更凸显 “近便” 这一关键信息。

        2）结合图画中的 “市民” 和图表中的 “某市” 可知二者聚焦 “城市公园给城市居民带来的便利”，因此可将 people 替换为表意更准确的 city/urban dwellers/residents/inhabitants。

可将 make sb feel happy 替换为表意相近但更高级的 raise/increase/enhance/improve sb's sense of well-being。

        句式变换：主体段的开头句应更清晰明确地点出主旨，因此可将 indicates that parks can 变换为 is aimed at highlighting/emphasizing the role of parks in doing sth 或是 is intended to highlight/emphasize the role of parks in doing sth (旨在凸显公园在做某事方面的作用)，同时也能丰富用语、充实行文。

        高级范例：The picture is aimed at highlighting the role of parks, particularly those (conveniently situated) close to residential neighborhoods, in increasing city dwellers' sense of well-being.

        ②Parks are of great importance to cities. ③They help clean the air, and people can see a lot of plants and animals there. ④Moreover, many people like doing exercise and having fun in parks.

        词汇表达：

1）可将②句的 of great importance to cities 替换为更高级的 an essential and integral part of urban infrastructure (城市基础设施不可或缺的部分)。

2）可将③句的 help clean the air 替换为表意相近但更高级的 contribute to cleaner air，进而将 and 之后的内容替换为更高级且表意更准确的 greater biodiversity。

        句式变换：句群的重点在于说明公园能带来的各种好处，也即③④句为重点信息，因此可将②句变换为介词短语 As an... 以与后两句合并，再将③④句通过 not only...but also... 结构串联 (需删去④句的 Moreover)；为了便于合并，可将④句的论述角度转换为 “公园带来的某种好处”，比如 Parks serve as an ideal place for doing exercise/fitness and having fun/recreation，再省略主语 Parks 以与③句合并。合并之后，内容更紧凑，重点更突出。

        高级范例：As an essential part of urban infrastructure, they not only contribute to cleaner air and greater biodiversity, but also serve as an ideal place for fitness and recreation.

        ⑤When more parks are built, people will have more opportunities to connect with nature and engage in physical activities. ⑥As a result, they will become healthier.

        词汇表达：

1）可将⑤句的 people 替换为表意更准确的 city/urban dwellers/residents/inhabitants。

2）可在⑤句 physical activities 前添加 outdoor (户外的)，既丰富用语，又更贴合公园场景。

        句式变换：

3）可将⑤句变换为 The more...the more...(越…… 就越……) 结构，以丰富句式；也可将原先的主从复合句变换为 More parks mean more opportunities for...to... 这一简洁、紧凑的 “主谓宾” 简单句，通过 mean (意味着) 一词凸显句内的因果关联。

4）⑤⑥句也存在因果关联，因此可将⑥句变换为 “thus＋现在分词短语” 结构以与⑤句合并，充当结果状语。此时，需将⑥句的内容转换为 “去公园 (亲近大自然、参与锻炼) 能增进居民的健康”，即 improving their health；此外，还可在 health 前添加 physical and mental/psychological (身心的) 或 general (总体的) 等表达，以充实行文。

        高级范例：

        1)The more parks are built, the more opportunities urban inhabitants will have to connect with nature and engage in outdoor physical activities, thus improving their physical and mental health.

        2)More parks mean more opportunities for urban residents to connect with nature and engage in outdoor physical activities, thus improving their general health.

        ⑦Many local governments have known these benefits very well, so they have built a large number of parks recently, just like the city shown in the chart.

        词汇表达：可将 have known...very well 替换为更高级的 have widely recognized/acknowledged...(已广泛认可……)，以丰富用语。

        句式变换：1）前文聚焦公园的各种好处，因此本句可直接将 these benefits 置于句首，将主动语态调整为被动语态，从而能与前文的衔接更紧密、顺畅，即 These benefits have been widely recognized/acknowledged (by many local governments)。

2）可将 so... 这一表示结果的分句变换为 as (is) evidenced by...(由…… 证明) 这一由 as 引导的定语从句，以丰富句式；此时，需将分句的内容调整为名词短语接在 by 之后，比如可调整为 the recent park building boom in many cities (最近许多城市的公园建设热潮)，再将 just like the city... 调整为 including the one...，既使用语更正式，又使句内逻辑更顺畅。
        高级范例：These benefits have been widely recognized (by many local governments) , as evidenced by the recent park building boom in many cities, including the one shown in the chart.

        第三段

        ①To conclude, parks are very important, because they help increase people's quality of life.
        词汇表达：可将 increase 替换为 raise、improve、enhance 等表达，以丰富用语。
        句式变换：可利用 be vital/crucial to/for (doing) sth 结构使冗余的主从复合句变得更简洁、紧凑。
        高级范例：To conclude, parks are crucial for enhancing people's quality of life.

        ②The government should not focus only on new parks, but also on old ones.
        词汇表达：

        1）可将 not focus only on...but also on... 替换为 not only put effort into...but also into...，同时在 new parks 和 old ones 前分别增补 building 和 maintaining，既丰富用语，又使句子表意更清晰。

        2）可将 old 替换为更高级且表意更准确的 existing (现有的)。

        3）可利用 as well as 或 together with/along with (连同…… 一起) 引出现有公园中需要维护的设施，比如 green spaces (绿地)、walking trails (步道)、fitness facilities (健身步道)、sports and leisure facilities (运动和休闲设施)、sports fields (运动场) 等，从而使内容更充实；此时，需在句末增补 in them (在它们 / 现有公园里)，以使表意更明确。
        句式变换：可将全句变换为 In addition to...effort should also be put into...，从而更凸显语义重心 “不能忽视对现有公园的维护”。
        高级范例：In addition to building new parks, effort should also be put into maintaining existing ones, along with green spaces, walking trails, and sports and leisure facilities in them.
