They volunteered to stay on a remote, uninhabited island for half a year, undertaking the hard task of protecting the local seal habitat.The small island is home to a group of nearly 2,000 seals, one of the key seal breeding sites in the local marine ecosystem. Due to frequent human disturbance and illegal fishing activities in nearby waters, the seals’ living environment was severely threatened. To prevent the seal population from declining, local wildlife organizations launched a volunteer protection program, and the couple signed up without hesitation.The island lacked all modern conveniences. The couple lived in a simple stone house, relying on wind power and rainwater for basic needs. The changeable weather once trapped them in violent storms for over ten days with limited supplies. Yet these tough conditions made their work more meaningful, and they never gave up their task.During their six-month stay, the couple stuck to a strict routine. They patrolled (巡逻) the coastline regularly to drive away illegal fishing boats, recorded the number and living conditions of the seals, and helped deal with injured or weak baby seals. In their spare time, they filmed the seals’ daily activities and the beautiful natural scenery of the island, including glowing auroras and rhythmic tides. Different from casual tourists, they valued every quiet moment protecting the marine creatures.After returning to the city, their online videos of seals attracted wide public attention. Their continuous efforts greatly raised public awareness of marine protection. For the couple, the tough half-year experience was precious rather than a sacrifice. It proved that true love for nature lies in silent persistence and selfless protection.24. What can we learn about the islandA. It provides perfect living conditions for various seals.B. It serves as a key breeding place for local seals.C. It is free from human disturbance and seal diseases.D. It serves as a popular scenic spot for tourists.25. Why did the couple choose to join the programA. They hoped to save seals from worsening living conditions.B. They hoped to study local seal behaviors carefully.C. They wanted to relax away from busy city life.D. They aimed to greatly improve local seal living conditions.26. What does the underlined word “routine” in Paragraph 4 probably meanA. Violent storms on the island. B. Limited daily supplies.C. Fixed daily work plan. D. Beautiful natural scenery.27. What lesson can we learn from the couple’s experienceA. Constant devotion creates remarkable achievements.B. Ambition drives people to pursue greater goals.C. Natural beauty cures inner anxiety and tiredness.D. Steady perseverance turns small efforts valuable.CThe Y Te 01 boat is far more than a typical river vessel. It carries neither tourists nor goods, only aiding poor villagers in Vietnam’s Mekong Delta, a vast wetland crisscrossed (纵横交错的) by narrow waterways. Funded by the government, this mobile medical boat is one of three year-round floating clinics for remote riverside communities.“Villagers once rowed small wooden boats half a day just for basic blood tests or children’s vaccines,” said Nguyen Van Hung, a doctor with six years’ experience on the vessel. Last January, he joined a 10-day tour covering 12 isolated riverside hamlets (小村庄) in Vinh Long Province. The boat stays around 36 hours per stop, offering free physical exams, chronic disease drugs, ultrasounds, maternal-child care and free prescriptions.Vietnam’s countryside medical system has long suffered from a severe lack of medical resources, particularly in delta regions cut off by seasonal floods for months on end. Local governments built land clinics but cannot keep full-time doctors, as few medics will live in flood-prone (易受洪水影响的) villages with poor schools and transport. Online consultations were introduced, yet most elderly farmers lack smartphones or stable internet.The monthly trips of Y Te 01 have become an essential fix for this healthcare shortage. For 11 months each year, the boat visits roughly ten villages per voyage before heading back to Can Tho, the major port city, to refuel, replenish (补充) medical supplies and switch staff members. Most riverside hamlets only get a visit from this floating clinic once every twelve months.The medical team can treat as many as 180 local residents every working day. The small boat carries lightweight portable gear for basic check-ups. “I’m deeply moved that doctors and nurses stay patient and warm despite tight living and working quarters,” said local teacher Le Thi Mai, who brought her elderly mother for diabetes treatment. “This boat is our only reliable access to professional medical help without traveling far.”28. What makes the floating boat Y Te 01 different from common river boatsA. It carries foreign tourists across deltas. B. It offers free accommodation for seniors.C. It acts as a mobile medical clinic. D. It transports agricultural goods for villages.29. What can we infer about Vinh Long Province from Paragraph 2 and 3A. It has a large well-equipped central hospital.B. It faces serious shortages of rural medical workers.C. It provides professional medical training for new doctors.D. It has widely covered high-speed internet for all villagers.30. How long can the Y Te 01 serve villages with one round of suppliesA. About twelve months. B. About thirty-six hours.C. About ten days. D. About eleven months.31. What is Le Thi Mai’s attitude toward the floating hospital’s serviceA. Grateful. B. Doubtful. C. Uncertain. D. Critical.DFor decades, marine researchers have faced major obstacles in ocean conservation. Remote, dark coastal waters shelter rare marine species, largely inaccessible to human divers. Traditional cameras perform poorly in dim conditions, and costly human surveys cover less than 3 percent of global shallow marine areas yearly. To solve these problems, a modern AI bioacoustics (生物声学的) monitoring system has been developed to boost conservation efficiency.Jointly created by environmental tech teams and marine reserves, this innovative system adopts low-cost underwater microphones to record complex ocean soundscapes. Equipped with advanced machine learning technology, it is able to identify various marine species according to their unique acoustic (声音的) features automatically. Compared with traditional approaches, it reduces survey costs by 62 percent and expands detectable sea areas by over 18 times. Inspired by dolphins’ echolocation, its bionic algorithm (算法) can block interference from waves and ship engines, accurately recognizing faint and mixed underwater sounds.In a 12-month field study off Ghana’s western coast, Dr. Lena Marquez’s team placed 46 solar-powered hydrophones (水听器). The AI uncovered three locally extinct fish species, missed by human divers’ annual searches for five years. It also locates hidden seagrass and coral habitats overlooked by humans. Guided by its data, local fishermen adopted seasonal fishing bans, raising young fish populations by 41 percent in eight months.Nevertheless, the system has two noticeable limitations. It fails to identify silent marine creatures such as shellfish with no acoustic signals. Additionally, its high-precision analysis demands steady internet access and basic digital training, which many remote island regions lack. To overcome these obstacles, researchers are optimizing offline data processing systems and offering free professional training for coastal residents in relevant regions.This bionic AI technology marks a significant breakthrough in marine ecological protection. Rather than isolating technology from natural ecosystems, it learns and follows natural biological rules to repair damaged ocean habitats. As affordable hydrophones and open-source AI programs gain global popularity, local coastal communities are empowered to guard marine resources effectively, turning abstract ocean protection theories into practical daily action.32. What is a key advantage of the new AI systemA. It can operate without any workers on site.B. It makes marine surveys much more efficient.C. It is able to cover every sea area worldwide.D. It completely removes the cost of ocean surveys.33. What can we learn about the field study in GhanaA. It banned all local fishing activities.B. It relied on human divers’ repeated searches.C. It found some previously unseen local fish species.D. It improved adult fish population sharply.34. What is one shortcoming of the bioacoustic systemA. It cannot work in bright seawater.B. It ignores human fishing activities.C. It needs no digital training for users.D. It is unable to detect soundless sea life.35. Which of the following is the best title for the textA. New Rules for Global Ocean FishingB. Advanced Ways to Improve Internet ServiceC. Hidden Marine Habitats Discovered by DiversD. AI Technology Empowers Ocean Conservation第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Most Senior Two students nowadays turn to AI for all kinds of schoolwork. We rely on it daily to draft argumentative essays, sort out complex ideas from reading, break down grammar rules and work out tough math questions within seconds. _____36_____ Brain researchers warn that too much dependence on AI slowly weakens our ability to think independently and judge logically._____37_____ Once given ready-made output, many learners accept it without careful thought or deep exploration. Brain scans from lab experiments show this passive habit greatly weakens our ability to reason logically. Few of them realize the hidden harm behind quick answers.Working through academic challenges on our own develops our core learning skills. _____38_____ For instance, instead of reaching for instant digital assistance when we encounter confusing exercises, we can master solid, long-lasting thinking skills by attempting problems independently first. Gradually, this tiny daily habit clearly separates active self-driven learners from lazy, dependent ones. As learning tasks grow harder, such gaps will only become wider.Still, there is no need to reject AI entirely in our school life. A balanced way works best: collect basic materials via AI, but finish all analysis and creative writing tasks by ourselves. It lets us make good use of AI without losing our own thinking ability. _____39_____Above all, form daily independent thinking habits. We should draft our ideas by ourselves at first. Then revise AI-generated content according to our original ideas. _____40_____ If we stick to independent practice, we will develop our unique learning abilities and prepare ourselves well for all upcoming exams.A. Such easy convenience brings hidden risks.B. Never believe all online information blindly.C. Proper use of digital tools brings us many benefits.D. Overusing digital tools weakens our thinking power.E. Tough learning tasks can shape better learning habits.F. Teachers demand a total ban on AI in students’ daily homework.G. Regular thinking habits pave the way for future school performance.第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节 完形填空 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。When 17-year-old Zane joined in after-school community service last autumn, he expected boring work.

Proud of my good work, I always treated class duties with great care. One afternoon, I stayed after school to finish the final part of the newspaper. As dusk fell, I packed my belongings hurriedly to head home and accidentally knocked over a new potted green plant on the windowsill (窗台).Soil spilled everywhere, and the plant’s tender leaves were badly hurt. Panic filled me instantly. Looking around the empty classroom, I knew nobody had witnessed my mistake. I felt confused and worried, for I feared criticism and blame from my teacher and classmates. Driven by fear, I cleaned up the mess carelessly and slipped home secretly. Though I kept telling myself no one would find out to ease my anxiety, a strong sense of unease stayed in my heart, for I knew I was simply evading (逃避) my fault.The next morning, our teacher noticed the damaged plant and messy windowsill and asked who was responsible. All classmates shook their heads, knowing nothing about it. My heart raced fast with intense guilt and shame. I hung my head, cheeks burning, too ashamed to meet my teacher’s gentle eyes. The brief silence felt like a hard test, making my inner torment (折磨) even worse.I could not focus on any morning classes. The sight of the broken plant kept coming to my mind, and guilt troubled me all the time. I came to realize that running away could never erase my wrongdoings. After long inner struggle and self-reflection, I finally collected my courage and decided to admit my fault and take responsibility bravely.注意：（1）续写词数应为150个左右；（2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。After the bell rang, I rushed to the teacher’s office without hesitation.____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Inspired by the teacher’s words, I took positive action to make up for my mistake.____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________参考答案第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分）听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话读两遍。【1题答案】【答案】A【2题答案】【答案】B【3题答案】【答案】A【4题答案】【答案】B【5题答案】【答案】C第二节（共15小题；每小题1.5分，满分22.5分）听下面5段对话或独白。每段对话或独白后有几个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听每段对话或独白前，你将有时间阅读各个小题，每小题5秒钟；听完后，各小题将给出5秒钟的作答时间。每段对话或独白读两遍。【6~7题答案】【答案】6.

Nervous and embarrassed, I told the teacher the whole truth about the broken plant and my selfish escape. I made a sincere apology for my careless behavior and lack of courage. Instead of scolding me, the teacher smiled softly and comforted me. She said that making mistakes is a normal part of growth, and the bravest thing is not being faultless, but daring to face and fix one’s errors. Her warm words removed all my anxiety and made me feel peaceful and relieved.Inspired by the teacher’s words, I took positive action to make up for my mistake. I used my pocket money to buy a new green plant and carefully cleaned the windowsill and floor. This small but honest experience brought me precious growth. I truly learned that responsibility is the most important quality in our life. No matter what mistakes we make, we should never choose to escape. Only by bravely admitting faults and correcting them can we become more responsible and mature, and grow into a better version of ourselves.
