Ⅰ.完形填空
(2022·福建省福州市高中毕业班质量检测)Once upon a time, my father and I got lost in a forest in France. I must have been about twelve or thirteen. Anyway, it was before the time when most people 　1　 a mobile phone. It was in the Loire Valley. About half an hour, my dad 　2　 the truth. “Oh, it seems that we’re lost.” We walked around and around in circles, trying to find the path, 　3　 with no luck. I could tell my dad was starting to 　4　, even as he was trying to hide it from me. We had been in the forest for hours then and both knew my mom would be in a state of absolute 　5　.

　　【语篇解读】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章通过描述作者和父亲一次在森林里迷路的经历,告诉我们在面临困境的时候,保持同一个方向,有继续前进的决心,总能走出困境。
1.A　句意:无论如何,那是在大多数人拥有手机之前。根据下文“a mobile phone”指拥有手机,应用own。
2.B　根据下文宾语“the truth”可知,这里指父亲意识到了他们迷路的事实。
3.C　句意:我们绕着圈子走了又走,试图找到那条路,但运气不佳。根据后文“with no luck”可知,作者和父亲没有找到路,前后文为转折关系,应用yet。
4.D　句意:我能看出爸爸开始恐慌了,尽管他试图瞒着我。根据下文“We had been in the forest for hours”可知,父子俩在森林里迷路了,父亲开始恐慌。
5.A　terror惊恐;anger愤怒;disappointment失望;loss损失。根据上文“We had been in the forest for hours”可知,父子俩在森林里迷路了,母亲肯定处于惊恐状态。
6.C　根据上文“I had just been told the story of the hikers who had died in the wilderness and I found it easy to”可知,作者听人讲过那些死在荒野里的徒步旅行者的故事,所以很容易想象到他们的命运也会是这样。
7.C　根据下文“line we’ll get out of here”可知,沿着走直线就能走出森林。
8.B　句意:最后我们听到了汽车的声音,来到了一条主干道上。根据下文“we heard the sound of cars”可知,作者和父亲最后走出了森林。
9.D　根据下文“a main road”可知,他们到达了主干道路。
10.A　句意:我们离出发的那个村子已有11英里了,但至少还有路标。set off出发;passed out 失去知觉;called at拜访;lived through经历过。根据上文“We were eleven miles from the village where we had”可知,作者和父亲出来后发现离出发的那个村子已有11英里了。
11.A　句意:当我完全迷失的时候,我经常会想到这个策略——不管是字面上的还是隐喻上的。
12.D　句意:当我在崩溃的时候,当我的心因恐惧而快速跳动,我不知道该如何继续生活时,就想到了它。根据后文“how I could carry on living”可知,作者不知如何继续生活,说明作者处在崩溃的时候。
13.C　根据前文“my heart beat rapidly”再结合常识可知,此处指当作者害怕得心跳加速,不知道如何继续生活时,就会想到这个策略。
14.C　句意:在同一个方向上,一只脚走在另一只脚的前面,总比原地打转走得更远。结合上文作者和父亲是靠着走直线走出森林的可知,此处指保持同一个方向。
15.B　ambition抱负;determination决心;inspiration灵感;cooperation合作。根据下文“to keep walking forward”可知,出走困境靠的是继续前进的决心。
Ⅱ.语法填空
A robot has been taught to laugh at jokes to make it more human.Researchers are using AI to train robots about appropriate laughter, and 1.　　　　(distinguish) between chuckles and screams. 
They described 2.　　　　 (work) with a robot called Erica in the hope of making a conversation more natural. “We think that one of the important 3.　　　　 (function) of conversational AI is sympathy,” said Dr.Koji Inoue, a professor.“A conversation is, of course, multimodal, not just responding correctly.So we decided that one way a robot can empathize(共情) with users is to share their laughter, 4.　　　　 you cannot do with a text-based chatbot.” 
Creating a “5.　　　　 (share) laughter model”, the researchers used AI to help detect laughter and decide whether to laugh and what kind of laughter would be 6.　　　　 (good).Four short dialogues between real people and Erica 7.　　　　 (use) to test the system, which performed well. 
However, the experts said there is more work to do to create 8.　　　　(true) natural laughter situations. 
Dr.Inoue said, “The robot should actually have 9.　　　　 distinct character, and it can show this character through its conversational behaviors, such as laughing, eye gaze, gestures and speaking styles.It may well take more than 10 to 20 years before we can finally have a casual chat 10.　　　　 a robot like we would with a friend.” 
　　【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了研究人员正在利用人工智能来训练机器人何时和如何发出适当的笑声,其目的是让机器人对话更自然。
1.to distinguish　考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,该句已有谓语动词“are using”, 空处需要用非谓语动词形式。再根据固定搭配“use sth. to do sth.(用某物做某事)”和前文的and可知,空处应填to distinguish。
2.working　考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,该句已有谓语动词described,空格处需要用非谓语动词形式作宾语,表示“他们描述了与名为 Erica的机器人工作(的事)”。故填working。
3.functions　考查名词的数。由空前的“one of the important”可知,此处需要用名词的复数形式,表示“重要的功能之一”。故填functions。
4.which　考查定语从句。分析句子可知,空处为非限制性定语从句,指代前文的句子。故填关系代词which。
5.shared　考查形容词。由后文的名词短语“laughter model”可知,此处需要用形容词。share的形容词为shared,意为“共享的”。
6.best　考查形容词的最高级。前文提到研究人员用人工智能帮助检测笑声和决定是否要笑,此处表示“哪一种笑声最好”。故填best。
7.had been used　考查被动语态。主语“Four short dialogues between real people and Erica”是谓语use的承受者,所以用被动语态。再由后文的 performed可知,use表示的动作发生在其之前,要用过去完成时。故填had been used。
8.truly　考查副词。修饰形容词natural需要用副词truly,意为“真正地”。故填truly。
9.a　考查冠词。分析句子结构可知,此处需要用冠词修饰可数名词character,表示泛指。故填a。
10.with　考查介词。have a casual chat为固定搭配,意为“随便聊聊”。
Ⅲ.写作
(一)应用文写作
(山东省潍坊市五县2022届高三上学期第一次联考)请以“Life in the Future”为题,描述你心中未来的生活。
注意:
1.词数80左右;
2.可适当增加细节,以使行文连贯。
Life in the Future
 
 
 
【答案】
Life in the Future
I imagine a lot about lives in the future. I forecast that computers will be much cleverer than us in the future, but we’ll programme them not to think in ways that may harm us. Besides, maybe scientists will put small intelligent machines, called nanobots, inside our bodies to increase our abilities. As for cities we live in, I predict, with global warming causing polar ice to melt, people will move into houses in cities that float. To sum up, we’ll be living a more convenient and creative life in the future.
(二)读后续写
(2022·全国新高考Ⅰ卷)It was the day of the big cross-country run.Students from seven different primary schools in and around the small town were warming up and walking the route(路线) through thick evergreen forest.
I looked around and finally spotted David, who was standing by himself off to the side by a fence.He was small for ten years old.His usual big toothy smile was absent today.I walked over and asked him why he wasn’t with the other children.He hesitated and then said he had decided not to run.
What was wrong? He had worked so hard for this event!
I quickly searched the crowd for the school’s coach and asked him what had happened.“I was afraid that kids from other schools would laugh at him,” he explained uncomfortably.“I gave him the choice to run or not, and let him decide.”
I bit back my frustration(懊恼).I knew the coach meant well—he thought he was doing the right thing.After making sure that David could run if he wanted, I turned to find him coming towards me, his small body rocking from side to side as he swung his feet forward.
David had a brain disease which prevented him from walking or running like other children, but at school his classmates thought of him as a regular kid.He always participated to the best of his ability in whatever they were doing.That was why none of the children thought it unusual that David had decided to join the cross-country team.It just took him longer—that’s all.David had not missed a single practice, and although he always finished his run long after the other children, he did always finish.As a special education teacher at the school, I was familiar with the challenges David faced and was proud of his strong determination.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
We sat down next to each other, but David wouldn’t look at me. 
 
 
I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. 
 
 
【答案】
We sat down next to each other, but David wouldn’t look at me.I turned him around and looked him in the eyes sincerely.I quietly said, “David, if you’re not running because you’re afraid someone is going to laugh, that’s not a good enough reason.Are you going to let them get in your way? If you really want to run, David, run!” I held my breath as David took this in.Then he looked at the field and said with a fierce but quiet determination, “I’m gonna run.” 
I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners.The starter’s gun sounded.But he had only gone a few metres before he tripped and fell flat on the ground.My heart sank.As I started to shout encouragement, other voices around me took up the call.“Come on David, you can do it!” David picked himself up and started again until he crossed the finish line to wild cheers and applause.
