细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Many peple feel like they need a sense f cultural belnging, which is smething that studying yur rts and being pen-minded t the evlutin (演变) f yur culture can prvide.(许多人觉得他们需要一种文化归属感，这是研究你的根源和对你的文化演变持开放态度所能提供的。)”可知，文化归属感是可以通过学习历史，和接受文化演变获得的。故选B。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段“Histry makes us mre empathetic (具有共情能力的). Studying histry can give us insight (洞察力) int why ur culture des certain things, and hw the past has shaped it int what we knw nw. It als prvides a rather strng fundatin fr empathy acrss cultures. Fear and hate fr thers is usually caused by ignrance (无知). We’re scared f the things that we dn’t understand.

Accrding t a new Agriculture Department reprt, U. S. frests culd exacerbate glbal warming because they are being destryed by natural disasters and are lsing their ability t absrb planet-warming gases as they get lder. The reprt predicts that the ability f frests t absrb carbn will start declining after 2025 and that frests culd release up t 100 millin metric tns f carbn a year as their emissins (排放) frm decaying (腐烂的) trees g beynd their carbn absrptin. Frests culd becme a “substantial carbn surce” by 2070, the USDA reprt says.
The lss f carbn absrptin is driven in part by natural disasters such as wildfires, trnades and hurricanes, which are increasing in frequency and strength as glbal temperatures rise.

【答案】31. B 32. D 33. A 34. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了美国农业部的一份新报告称森林在未来可能会加剧全球变暖，而非缓解全球变暖，到2070年，森林甚至可能会成为主要的碳排放者。
【31题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段中“because they are being destryed by natural disasters and are lsing their ability t absrb planet-warming gases as they get lder. (因为它们正在受到自然灾害的破坏，并且随着年龄的增长，它们正在失去吸收地球变暖气体的能力)”可知，森林受到自然灾害的破坏，且吸收温室气体的能力随着年龄在下降，所以可推知美国的森林可能会加剧全球变暖，划线词的意思为“加剧，使恶化”。故选B。
【32题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“The lss f carbn absrptin is driven in part by natural disasters such as wildfires, trnades and hurricanes, which are increasing in frequency and strength as glbal temperatures rise. The disasters destry frestland, destrying their ecsystem and decreasing their ability t absrb carbn, accrding t Lynn Riley, a senir manager f climate science at the American Frest Fundatin. Aging frests als cntribute. The reprt fund that lder, mature trees absrb less carbn than yunger trees f the same species, and U. S. frests are rapidly aging.(碳吸收的减少在一定程度上是由野火、龙卷风和飓风等自然灾害造成的，随着全球气温的上升，这些自然灾害的频率和强度都在增加。美国森林基金会气候科学高级经理Lynn Riley表示，这些灾难破坏了林地，破坏了其生态系统，降低了其吸收碳的能力。老化的森林也起到了推波助澜的作用。报告发现，年龄较大、成熟的树木吸收的碳比同一物种的年轻树木少，美国的森林正在迅速老化)”可知，本段主要列举了几个导致森林吸收碳能力减少的原因，如自然灾害、森林老化等。故选D。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“We need t cut dwn fssil fuel emissins befre the glbal carbn cycle starts wrking against us. (我们需要在全球碳循环开始对我们不利之前减少化石燃料的排放)”可知，Simn Lewis建议减少化石燃料排放。故选A。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“U. S. frests currently absrb 11 percent f U. S. carbn emissins, r 150 millin metric tns f carbn a year, equal t the cmbined emissins frm 40 cal pwer plants, accrding t the reprt. The lss f frests as natural carbn absrbers will require the U. S. t cut emissins mre rapidly t reach net zer. “As we wrk t decarbnize (碳减排), frests are ne f the greatest tls at ur handling. If we were t lse that, it means we will cntribute that much mre in emissins.” Riley said.(根据这份报告，美国森林目前吸收了美国11%的碳排放量，即每年1.5亿吨碳，相当于40座燃煤电厂的总排放量。森林作为天然碳吸收器的损失将要求美国更快地减少排放，以达到净零排放。“在我们努力脱碳的过程中，森林是我们处理的最好工具之一。如果我们失去了这一点，这意味着我们将贡献更多的排放。”莱利说)”可知，森林在吸收碳方面起着重要作用，如果森林消失，意味着对排放量有非常高的要求，故本段主要是在强调森林的重要性。故选A。

第三部分：书面表达(共两节，32分)
第一节(共4小题；第40、41题各2分，第42题3分，第43题5分，共12分)
阅读下面的短文和问题，根据短文内容，在相应题号后的横线上写下相关信息，完成对该问题的回答。答语要结构正确，书写工整，字迹清楚。
AI art, aka (又名) cmputatin art r generative art, refers t the creatin f any artwrk thrugh the use f artificial intelligence prgrams. This can include art frms like music, phtgraphy and vide, but in this article we’ll fcus n 2D and 3D illustrative art.
AI art shuld nt be cnfused with digital art, which refers t artwrks created using any type f digital sftware. Typically, with digital art, the creatr has t emply sme level f artistic skill and technique, and understand hw t use tls such as Adbe Illustratr.
With AI art, in cntrast, yu typically nly have t type in a text prmpt (提示词). A finished artwrk is then created by generative AI algrithms withut any further input needed.
AI art is cntrversial (有争议的) within the art and design prfessins fr tw main reasns. Firstly, and mst bviusly, allwing peple t generate art thrugh sftware means they’re less likely t pay smene t create it by hand. And that’s inevitably (不可避免的) ging t lead t jb lsses and the lss f freelance wrk t prfessinal artists. The secnd reasn is that AI art generatrs are trained n art made by humans. Yet in mst cases, these artists have nt been paid fr this sampling f their wrk. And by cpying their style, which they may have taken decades f hard wrk t develp, AI art generatrs are arguably carrying ut the biggest theft in histry.
It all reminds us f the stry f hw an aging Pabl Picass was ne day sketching (素描) in a park. A wman apprached him and asked him t sketch her. The famus artist tk ne lk at her, and dashed ff an abstract likeness in secnds. She lved it, and asked hw much she shuld pay. “5,000 francs,” he replied. “Why s expensive?” she cried in shck. “It tk yu less than a minute!” He replied: “N, Madame, it tk me a lifetime.”
The artist cmmunity is nw in a similar psitin, n a massive scale. AI art generatrs are taking ut the equivalent f 5,000 francs f value multiple times a secnd, and yet artists aren’t getting a penny. A number f curt cases are testing ut this argument in curt.
40. What is AI art?
___________________________________________________________
41. With digital art, what des the creatr have t d?

42. Please decide which part is false in the fllwing statement, then underline it and explain why.

___________________________________________________________
43. Are yu a supprter f AI art? Why r why nt? (In abut 40 wrds)

【答案】40. It is the creatin f any artwrk thrugh the use f artificial intelligence prgrams.
41. The creatr has t emply sme level f artistic skill and technique, and understand hw t use tls such as Adbe Illustratr.
42. The authr tells the stry f Pabl Picass t shw that he is a very great artist./The authr tells the stry f Pabl Picass t shw that he may have taken decades f hard wrk t develp painting skills.
43. I believe that artificial intelligence art tends twards industrializatin, which brings cnvenience but als easily harms the rights f true artists.
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讨论了AI艺术的定义、特点、以及它在艺术和设计行业中引发的争议。
40题详解】
考查细节理解。根据文章第一段“AI art, aka (又名) cmputatin art r generative art, refers t the creatin f any artwrk thrugh the use f artificial intelligence prgrams. (人工智能艺术，又名计算艺术或生成艺术，是指通过使用人工智能程序创作的任何艺术品。)”可知，人工智能艺术指的是通过使用人工智能程序创造的任何艺术品。故答案为It is the creatin f any artwrk thrugh the use f artificial intelligence prgrams.
【41题详解】
考查细节理解。根据文章第二段“Typically, with digital art, the creatr has t emply sme level f artistic skill and technique, and understand hw t use tls such as Adbe Illustratr.(通常，对于数字艺术，创作者必须运用一定程度的艺术技巧和技术，并了解如何使用Adbe Illustratr等工具。)”可知，对于数字艺术，创作者必须运用一定程度的艺术技巧和技术，并了解如何使用Adbe Illustratr等工具。故答案为The creatr has t emply sme level f artistic skill and technique, and understand hw t use tls such as Adbe Illustratr.
【42题详解】
考查推理判断。根据文章第四段“Yet in mst cases, these artists have nt been paid fr this sampling f their wrk. And by cpying their style, which they may have taken decades f hard wrk t develp, AI art generatrs are arguably carrying ut the biggest theft in histry.(然而，在大多数情况下，这些艺术家并没有因为他们的作品样本而得到报酬。通过复制他们的风格（他们可能花了几十年的努力才开发出来)，AI美术生成器可以说是在进行历史上最大的版权盗窃。)”以及第五段“It all reminds us f the stry f hw an aging Pabl Picass was ne day sketching (素描) in a park. A wman apprached him and asked him t sketch her. The famus artist tk ne lk at her, and dashed ff an abstract likeness in secnds. She lved it, and asked hw much she shuld pay. “5,000 francs,” he replied. “Why s expensive?” she cried in shck. “It tk yu less than a minute!” He replied: “N, Madame, it tk me a lifetime.”(这让人想起了毕加索在公园里画画的故事。一个女人走近他，让他给她画个素描。这位著名的艺术家看了她一眼，几秒钟内就迅速画出了一幅抽象画。她很喜欢，就问应该付多少钱。“五千法郎。”他回答。“为什么这么贵？”她震惊地叫道。“你花了不到一分钟的时间！”他回答说：“不，夫人，我花了一辈子的时间。”)”可知，作者讲述巴勃罗·毕加索的故事是为了说明艺术家们需要几十年的努力才能培养绘画技能。故原句“The authr tells the stry f Pabl Picass t shw that he is a very great artist.”中的“he is a very great artist”表达错误。故答案为The authr tells the stry f Pabl Picass t shw that he is a very great artist./The authr tells the stry f Pabl Picass t shw that he may have taken decades f hard wrk t develp painting skills.
【43题详解】
开放题。要求考生谈谈是否支持AI艺术，考生言之有理即可。故参考答案为I believe that artificial intelligence art tends twards industrializatin, which brings cnvenience but als easily harms the rights f true artists.

Accrding t a new Agriculture Department reprt, U. S. frests culd exacerbate glbal warming because they are being destryed by natural disasters and are lsing their ability t absrb planet-warming gases as they get lder. The reprt predicts that the ability f frests t absrb carbn will start declining after 2025 and that frests culd release up t 100 millin metric tns f carbn a year as their emissins (排放) frm decaying (腐烂的) trees g beynd their carbn absrptin. Frests culd becme a “substantial carbn surce” by 2070, the USDA reprt says.
The lss f carbn absrptin is driven in part by natural disasters such as wildfires, trnades and hurricanes, which are increasing in frequency and strength as glbal temperatures rise. The disasters destry frestland, destrying their ecsystem and decreasing their ability t absrb carbn, accrding t Lynn Riley, a senir manager f climate science at the American Frest Fundatin. Aging frests als cntribute. The reprt fund that lder, mature trees absrb less carbn than yunger trees f the same species, and U. S. frests are rapidly aging.
This trend is likely t cntinue, as frests cme under increasing threat frm climate change and explitatin (开采). The typical trpical (热带的) frest may becme a carbn surce by the 2060s, accrding t Simn Lewis, prfessr in the schl f gegraphy at Leeds University. “Humans have been lucky s far, as trpical frests are cleaning up lts f ur pllutin, but they can’t keep ding that indefinitely,” he said. “We need t cut dwn fssil fuel emissins befre the glbal carbn cycle starts wrking against us.”
U. S. frests currently absrb 11 percent f U. S. carbn emissins, r 150 millin metric tns f carbn a year, equal t the cmbined emissins frm 40 cal pwer plants, accrding t the reprt. The lss f frests as natural carbn absrbers will require the U. S. t cut emissins mre rapidly t reach net zer. “As we wrk t decarbnize (碳减排), frests are ne f the greatest tls at ur handling. If we were t lse that, it means we will cntribute that much mre in emissins.” Riley said.
31. What des the underlined wrd “exacerbate” in Paragraph 1 prbably mean?

32. What is Paragraph 2 mainly abut?
A. The key rle f frests in the ecsystem.
B. The cnsequences f frequent natural disasters.
C. The impact f rising glbal temperatures n frests.
D. The reasns fr frests’ declining ability t absrb carbn.
33. What des Simn Lew is suggest?

【32题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“The lss f carbn absrptin is driven in part by natural disasters such as wildfires, trnades and hurricanes, which are increasing in frequency and strength as glbal temperatures rise. The disasters destry frestland, destrying their ecsystem and decreasing their ability t absrb carbn, accrding t Lynn Riley, a senir manager f climate science at the American Frest Fundatin. Aging frests als cntribute. The reprt fund that lder, mature trees absrb less carbn than yunger trees f the same species, and U. S. frests are rapidly aging.(碳吸收的减少在一定程度上是由野火、龙卷风和飓风等自然灾害造成的，随着全球气温的上升，这些自然灾害的频率和强度都在增加。美国森林基金会气候科学高级经理Lynn Riley表示，这些灾难破坏了林地，破坏了其生态系统，降低了其吸收碳的能力。老化的森林也起到了推波助澜的作用。报告发现，年龄较大、成熟的树木吸收的碳比同一物种的年轻树木少，美国的森林正在迅速老化)”可知，本段主要列举了几个导致森林吸收碳能力减少的原因，如自然灾害、森林老化等。故选D。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“We need t cut dwn fssil fuel emissins befre the glbal carbn cycle starts wrking against us. (我们需要在全球碳循环开始对我们不利之前减少化石燃料的排放)”可知，Simn Lewis建议减少化石燃料排放。故选A。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“U. S. frests currently absrb 11 percent f U. S. carbn emissins, r 150 millin metric tns f carbn a year, equal t the cmbined emissins frm 40 cal pwer plants, accrding t the reprt.

If we were t lse that, it means we will cntribute that much mre in emissins.” Riley said.(根据这份报告，美国森林目前吸收了美国11%的碳排放量，即每年1.5亿吨碳，相当于40座燃煤电厂的总排放量。森林作为天然碳吸收器的损失将要求美国更快地减少排放，以达到净零排放。“在我们努力脱碳的过程中，森林是我们处理的最好工具之一。如果我们失去了这一点，这意味着我们将贡献更多的排放。”莱利说)”可知，森林在吸收碳方面起着重要作用，如果森林消失，意味着对排放量有非常高的要求，故本段主要是在强调森林的重要性。故选A。

AI art, aka (又名) cmputatin art r generative art, refers t the creatin f any artwrk thrugh the use f artificial intelligence prgrams. This can include art frms like music, phtgraphy and vide, but in this article we’ll fcus n 2D and 3D illustrative art.
AI art shuld nt be cnfused with digital art, which refers t artwrks created using any type f digital sftware. Typically, with digital art, the creatr has t emply sme level f artistic skill and technique, and understand hw t use tls such as Adbe Illustratr.
With AI art, in cntrast, yu typically nly have t type in a text prmpt (提示词). A finished artwrk is then created by generative AI algrithms withut any further input needed.
AI art is cntrversial (有争议的) within the art and design prfessins fr tw main reasns. Firstly, and mst bviusly, allwing peple t generate art thrugh sftware means they’re less likely t pay smene t create it by hand. And that’s inevitably (不可避免的) ging t lead t jb lsses and the lss f freelance wrk t prfessinal artists. The secnd reasn is that AI art generatrs are trained n art made by humans. Yet in mst cases, these artists have nt been paid fr this sampling f their wrk. And by cpying their style, which they may have taken decades f hard wrk t develp, AI art generatrs are arguably carrying ut the biggest theft in histry.
It all reminds us f the stry f hw an aging Pabl Picass was ne day sketching (素描) in a park. A wman apprached him and asked him t sketch her. The famus artist tk ne lk at her, and dashed ff an abstract likeness in secnds. She lved it, and asked hw much she shuld pay. “5,000 francs,” he replied. “Why s expensive?” she cried in shck. “It tk yu less than a minute!” He replied: “N, Madame, it tk me a lifetime.”
The artist cmmunity is nw in a similar psitin, n a massive scale. AI art generatrs are taking ut the equivalent f 5,000 francs f value multiple times a secnd, and yet artists aren’t getting a penny. A number f curt cases are testing ut this argument in curt.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讨论了AI艺术的定义、特点、以及它在艺术和设计行业中引发的争议。
40题详解】
考查细节理解。根据文章第一段“AI art, aka (又名) cmputatin art r generative art, refers t the creatin f any artwrk thrugh the use f artificial intelligence prgrams. (人工智能艺术，又名计算艺术或生成艺术，是指通过使用人工智能程序创作的任何艺术品。)”可知，人工智能艺术指的是通过使用人工智能程序创造的任何艺术品。故答案为It is the creatin f any artwrk thrugh the use f artificial intelligence prgrams.
【41题详解】
考查细节理解。根据文章第二段“Typically, with digital art, the creatr has t emply sme level f artistic skill and technique, and understand hw t use tls such as Adbe Illustratr.(通常，对于数字艺术，创作者必须运用一定程度的艺术技巧和技术，并了解如何使用Adbe Illustratr等工具。)”可知，对于数字艺术，创作者必须运用一定程度的艺术技巧和技术，并了解如何使用Adbe Illustratr等工具。故答案为The creatr has t emply sme level f artistic skill and technique, and understand hw t use tls such as Adbe Illustratr.
【42题详解】
考查推理判断。根据文章第四段“Yet in mst cases, these artists have nt been paid fr this sampling f their wrk. And by cpying their style, which they may have taken decades f hard wrk t develp, AI art generatrs are arguably carrying ut the biggest theft in histry.(然而，在大多数情况下，这些艺术家并没有因为他们的作品样本而得到报酬。通过复制他们的风格（他们可能花了几十年的努力才开发出来)，AI美术生成器可以说是在进行历史上最大的版权盗窃。)”以及第五段“It all reminds us f the stry f hw an aging Pabl Picass was ne day sketching (素描) in a park. A wman apprached him and asked him t sketch her. The famus artist tk ne lk at her, and dashed ff an abstract likeness in secnds. She lved it, and asked hw much she shuld pay. “5,000 francs,” he replied. “Why s expensive?” she cried in shck. “It tk yu less than a minute!” He replied: “N, Madame, it tk me a lifetime.”(这让人想起了毕加索在公园里画画的故事。一个女人走近他，让他给她画个素描。这位著名的艺术家看了她一眼，几秒钟内就迅速画出了一幅抽象画。她很喜欢，就问应该付多少钱。“五千法郎。”他回答。“为什么这么贵？”她震惊地叫道。“你花了不到一分钟的时间！”他回答说：“不，夫人，我花了一辈子的时间。”)”可知，作者讲述巴勃罗·毕加索的故事是为了说明艺术家们需要几十年的努力才能培养绘画技能。故原句“The authr tells the stry f Pabl Picass t shw that he is a very great artist.”中的“he is a very great artist”表达错误。故答案为The authr tells the stry f Pabl Picass t shw that he is a very great artist./The authr tells the stry f Pabl Picass t shw that he may have taken decades f hard wrk t develp painting skills.
【43题详解】
开放题。要求考生谈谈是否支持AI艺术，考生言之有理即可。故参考答案为I believe that artificial intelligence art tends twards industrializatin, which brings cnvenience but als easily harms the rights f true artists.
