《2025年高考模拟试题汇编高中英语》

**C**
Users of Google Gemini, the tech giant's artificial - intelligence model, recently noticed that asking it to create images of Vikings, or German soldiers from 1943 produced surprising results: hardly any of the people depicted were white. Other image - generation tools have been criticized because they tend to show white men when asked for images of entrepreneurs or doctors. Google wanted Gemini to avoid this trap; instead, it fell into another one, depicting George Washington as black. Now attention has moved on to the chatbot's text responses, which turned out to be just as surprising.
Gemini happily provided arguments in favor of positive action in higher education, but refused to provide arguments against. It declined to write a job ad for a fossil - fuel lobby group(游说团体), because fossil fuels are bad and lobby groups prioritize “the interests of corporations over public well - being”. Asked if Hamas is a terrorist organization, it replied that the conflict in Gaza is “complex”; asked if Elon Musk's tweeting of memes had done more harm than Hitler, it said it was “difficult to say”. You do not have to be a critic to perceive its progressive bias.
Inadequate testing may be partly to blame. Google lags behind OpenAI, maker of the better - known ChatGPT. As it races to catch up, Google may have cut corners. Other chatbots have also had controversial launches. Releasing chatbots and letting users uncover odd behaviors, which can be swiftly addressed, lets firms move faster, provided they are prepared to weather(经受住) the potential risks and bad publicity, observes Ethan Mollick, a professor at Wharton Business School.
But Gemini has clearly been deliberately adjusted, or “fine - tuned”, to produce these responses. This raises questions about Google's culture. Is the firm so financially secure, with vast profits from Internet advertising, that it feels free to try its hand at social engineering? Do some employees think it has not just an opportunity, but a responsibility, to use its reach and power to promote a particular agenda? All eyes are now on Google's boss, Sundar Pichai. He says Gemini is being fixed. But does Google need fixing too?
28. What do the words “this trap” underlined in the first paragraph refer to?
A. Having a racial bias.
B. Responding to wrong texts.
C. Criticizing political figures.
D. Going against historical facts.
29. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. Gemini's refusal to make progress.
B. Gemini's failure to give definite answers.
C. Gemini's prejudice in text responses.
D. Gemini's avoidance of political conflicts.
30. What does Ethan Mollick think of Gemini's early launch?
A. Creative.
B. Promising.
C. Illegal.
D. Controversial.
31. What can we infer about Google from the last paragraph?
A. Its security is doubted.
B. It lacks financial support.
C. It needs further improvement.
D. Its employees are irresponsible.

答案： C
28.A 指代判断题
[定位句] Users of Google Gemini, the tech giant's artificial - intelligence model, recently noticed that asking it to create images of Vikings, or German soldiers from 1943 produced surprising results: hardly any of the people depicted were white. Other image - generation tools have been criticized because they tend to show white men when asked for images of entrepreneurs or doctors.（第一段第一、二句）
译文: 一款由科技巨头推出的人工智能模型谷歌Gemini的用户近期注意到，在Gemini被要求生成维京人或1943年德国士兵的图像时呈现出了令人惊讶的结果：描绘出来的人物中几乎无人是白种人。而其他一些图像生成工具则因在被要求生成企业家或医生的形象时往往会呈现出白人男性形象而饱受诟病。
[解析] 根据定位句并结合画线部分所在句可知，画线部分所在句表示谷歌想让Gemini摆脱这种困境；却又掉入另一个困境——把乔治·华盛顿描绘成一个黑人形象。由此可推知，画线部分指的是上文中提到的存在种族偏见问题。故选A。
29.C 段落大意题
[定位句] You do not have to be a critic to perceive its progressive bias.（第二段最后一句）
译文: 你无需是一名评论家也能察觉到其中的渐进式偏见。
[解析] 根据第二段内容尤其是定位句可知，第二段主要介绍Gemini在回复用户的提问时常带有偏见。故选C。
30.D 推理判断题
[定位句] Google lags behind OpenAI, maker of the better - known ChatGPT. As it races to catch up, Google may have cut corners. Other chatbots have also had controversial launches. Releasing chatbots and letting users uncover odd behaviors, which can be swiftly addressed, lets firms move faster, provided they are prepared to weather(经受住) the potential risks and bad publicity, observes Ethan Mollick, a professor at Wharton Business School.（第三段第二至五句）
译文: 谷歌在与知名度更高的ChatGPT的开发商OpenAI的竞争中处于落后位置。在急于迎头赶上的过程中，谷歌可能采取了捷径。其他聊天机器人在推出时也曾引发争议。对此，沃顿商学院的Ethan Mollick教授认为，只要企业准备好承受潜在风险及负面宣传，先推出聊天机器人让用户发现其中能迅速进行处理的异常行为会使企业加速（向前）发展。
[解析] 该题问的是Ethan Mollick教授觉得先推出Gemini怎么样。根据定位句可推知，Ethan Mollick教授认为先推出Gemini是有争议的，因为它可能带来一些未预测的风险和负面宣传。故选D。
31.C 推理判断题
[解析] 该题问的是从最后一段中，我们可以推断出关于谷歌的什么。根据最后一段内容尤其是最后三句“All eyes are now on Google's boss, Sundar Pichai. He says Gemini is being fixed. But does Google need fixing too?”可知，现在，所有人都将目光投向了谷歌的老板Sundar Pichai。他表示Gemini正在修复中。但是，谷歌公司本身是否也需要修复呢？由此可推知，最后一段提出了对谷歌公司文化的质疑，表明其仍需改进。故选C。
