nusingraisedbeds,dividedintoanumberof12×12inchsquares,eachsquaremarkedoffwithstringorwooddividers.Eachsquarewasusedforaspecificvegetableandtheplantswerecloselypackedtomakelessspaceforweeds,whichalsoaccountedforitswaterandresourceefficiency(效率)."为了最大限度地利用空间，他开始使用凸起的床，把床分成许多12×12英寸的正方形，每个正方形都用绳子或木隔板隔开。每个方格都用于种植一种特定的蔬菜，植物被紧密排列以减少杂草的生长空间，这也说明了它的水和资源效率。"可知，梅尔·巴塞洛缪有创造力和机智。故选C。6．考查推理判断。根据倒数第二段中的"Inordertomaximizespace,hebeganusingraisedbeds,dividedintoanumberof12×12inchsquares,eachsquaremarkedoffwithstringorwooddividers."为了最大限度地利用空间，他开始使用凸起的床，把床分成许多12×12英寸的正方形，每个正方形都用绳子或木隔板隔开。可知，SFG有助于节省空间。故选A。7．考查主旨大意。根据第一段中的"Humanshavebeengrowingfoodforabout12,000years,but50yearsagoacivilengineernamedMelBartholomewfiguredoutanewwaytodoitthatcouldeliminatealotoftiringweeding(除草)andwateringthatwentwithit."人类种植粮食已有12000年的历史，但50年前，一位名叫梅尔·巴塞洛缪的土木工程师想出了一种种植粮食的新方法，可以省去许多繁琐的除草和浇水工作；结合文章主要介绍了一位土木工程师想出了一种新的种植粮食方法，介绍了其优点以及局限性。可知，这篇文章的主要内容是一位工程师发明的园艺方法。故选C。【答案】8．D9．D10．A11．B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文，讨论了人工智能（AI）在不同行业中的应用、其潜在影响以及公司应该如何评估和管理这些影响。【点评】本题考点涉及推理判断和段落大意两个题型的考查，是一篇科技类阅读，通读全文，理解文章大意，阅读题目后返回原文阅读并找出与题目相对应的内容，仔细核对，选择符合原文原意的答案，完成后再次阅读并检查。8．考查推理判断。根据第一段中的"IfwearetobelievesomeoftheupsettingheadlinesaboutAl,barelyanyone'sjobissafe.32%ofUKemployeesthinkAIcouldmaketheirrolesunnecessary,accordingtoaresearchin2023.Yetthesameresearchfoundthat28%ofworkersbelieveAIcouldmaketheirjobseasier."如果我们相信一些关于人工智能的令人不安的头条新闻，那么几乎没有人的工作是安全的。根据2023年的一项研究，32%的英国员工认为人工智能可能会使他们的角色变得不必要。然而，同样的研究发现，28%的员工认为人工智能可以让他们第10页的工作更轻松。可知，作者在第一段中通过列出具体的数字，如32%的英国员工认为人工智能可能会使他们的角色变得不必要、28%的员工认为人工智能可以让他们的工作更轻松，是为了展示不同人对AI的不同看法。故选D。9．考查推理判断。根据第二段"Andsodifferentindustriesareexploringit.InternationallawfirmClearyGottliebfor,forinstance,usesGenAItoscanitsdatabasesandcreateasummaryofitslawyers'relevantexperiencebeforemeetingswithanewclient(客户).However,thefirmsaysthatthedocumentproducedbytheAIwon'tbereadytosendimmediately."所以不同的行业都在探索它。例如，国际律师事务所ClearyGottliebfor使用GenAI扫描其数据库，并在与新客户会面之前创建其律师的相关经验摘要。然而，该公司表示，人工智能生成的文件不会立即准备好发送。可知，虽然该公司使用了AI工具来扫描数据库并生成律师的相关经验摘要，但这个由AI生成的文档不会立即准备好发送。这意味着在使用这个文档之前，还需要进行进一步的步骤或检查。因此，从这个例子中了解到，在使用AI生成的文档之前需要进一步的步骤。故选D。10．考查段落大意。根据第三段中的"However,withoutcarefullyassessing(评估)itspossiblesideeffectsbeforehand,companiesthatadopt(采用)anewAItoolriskdistancingemployeesorevenmakingtheirlivesmoredifficult."然而，在没有事先仔细评估可能产生的副作用的情况下，企业采用新的人工智能工具可能会疏远员工，甚至使他们的生活变得更加困难；以及全段内容可知，本段主要讲述了AI的潜在风险，即如果不进行仔细评估，公司可能会面临员工疏远或生活困难的风险。接着，该段还提到了公司应该确定他们感兴趣的技术是否可能带来净效益，这也与评估AI的潜在风险有关。故选A。11．考查推理判断。根据最后一段"DylanMorley,leadprincipalengineeratAsos,reportsthatmeasuringtheimpactofsuchtoolsisatopicof‘greatdiscussion'acrosstheindustry.Butheaddsthatthisisamorecomplexmatterthansimplyadoptingatoolandwaitingfor,say,a10%efficiencygain.Shearguesthatfirmscouldbefocusingonareassuchasmanagingtimespentinmeetings,otherthanadoptingAItoolsifimprovingefficiencyisindeedtheirmaingoal."Asos首席工程师DylanMorley报告说，衡量这些工具的影响是整个行业"热烈讨论"的话题。但他补充说，这比简单地采用一种工具并等待效率提高10%要复杂得多。她认为，如果企业的主要目标确实是提高效率，那么它们可以把重点放在管理会议时间等领域，而不是采用人工智能工具。可知，DylanMorley提到，如果提高效率确实是公司的主要目标，那么公司应该关注的领域不仅仅是采用AI工具，还可以是其他领域，比如管理会议时间。这暗示了AI并不是提高效率的唯一方法，公司有其他多种选择可以考虑。故选B。【答案】12．D13．D14．B15．C【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了非洲大象在Jafuta保护区内如何互相问候、问候的多种方式以及第11页这些问候的社会和沟通意义。【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，推理判断和标题归纳三个题型的考查，是一篇科普类阅读，首先要仔细阅读短文，掌握大意，然后结合具体的题目，再读短文，从中找出相关信息，就可以确定正确答案。12．考查推理判断。根据第一段中的"‘Femaleelephantsofdifferentfamilygroupsmighthavestrongsocialbonds(纽带)witheachother,formingwhatwecallbondgroups,'saidVestaEleuterioftheUniversityofVienna,theleadwriterofthestudy."该研究的主要作者、维也纳大学的VestaEleuteri说："不同家庭群体的母象可能彼此之间有很强的社会纽带，形成了我们所说的纽带群体。"可知，不同家庭群体的母象可能彼此之间有很强的社会纽带，形成了我们所说的纽带群体。故选D。13．考查细节理解。根据第二段中的"Theyactuallyshowanunderstandingofwhatotherelephantscansee,usingvisualgestureswhentheirpartnerislookingandtouchinggestureswhentheyarenot."它们实际上表现出对其他大象所能看到的东西的理解，当它们的伴侣在看它们时，它们会用视觉手势，而当它们不在时，它们会用触摸手势。可知，大象会根据其他大象是否在看而使用视觉或触摸手势，这显示了它们对其他大象所见的意识。故选D。14．考查推理判断。根据第三段中的"Similargreetingbehaviorhasbeenobservedinvariousanimals,whichhelpsmanagesocialsituationsbyreducingtensionorconfirmingsocialbonds.Thestudyobservedbothfemaleandmaleelephantsinthereserve,withfemalegreetingscloselymatchingthoseofwildelephants,whilemalegreetingsappeareddifferent."在各种动物中都观察到类似的问候行为，这有助于通过减少紧张或巩固社会关系来管理社会状况。该研究观察了保护区内的雌象和雄象，雌象的问候与野象的问候非常接近，而雄象的问候则有所不同。可知，研究主要是通过观察保护区内的雌象和雄象，并比较了不同性别之间的问候方式。故选B。15．考查标题归纳。根据第一段中的"Peoplegreeteachotherinvariousways,suchassaying‘hello'indifferentlanguagesorthroughphysicalactionslikeshakinghands,givinghugs,orexchangingkisses.Similarly,elephantshavevariousgreetings,asrevealedbyarecentstudyconductedonAfricanelephantsinZimbabwe'sJafutaReserve."人们以各种方式互相问候，比如用不同的语言说"你好"，或者通过握手、拥抱或亲吻等肢体动作。同样，大象也有各种各样的问候，最近在津巴布韦贾夫塔保护区对非洲大象进行的一项研究表明；以及全文内容可知，文章主要研究和分析大象如何以及为何用特定方式进行问候，"探索大象的问候"适合作文章标题。故选C。【答案】16．C；17．A；18．G；19．D；20．F【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，为庆祝母亲节给出一些建议，以增强妈妈和她们所爱的人的幸福。【点评】考查七选五，本文是一篇生活类阅读，要求在理解细节信息的基础上，着重考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。16．根据空前"Mother'sDayisanoccasiontocelebratemothers."母亲节是祝福母亲的节日。说明母亲节要祝福母亲；以及空后"Basedonmyresearchandthoseofotherpsychologists,herearesometipsforcelebratingmomson第12页Mother'sDay,andeveryday,toenhance(增强
