Because of this, families like ours, who depended on farming, lost their source of income. My father was forced to buy land around 100 km away from the city to continue farming. He never let us help on the land as he wanted us to focus on our studies and leave his farming roots behind.” Divakar grew up to become a project scientist at the India Space Research Organization. He remained completely disconnected from his farming roots until 2009 when his father suffered a serious illness that left him unable to move. That was when Divakar chose to return to his father and started his farming life. Initially, Divakar grew crops like local farmers but had much smaller earnings compared to his previous work despite hard work. In order to stand out in the farming crowd, Divakar intended to grow a different crop. After thorough research, he turned to dates (海枣) — a crop grown in the hot desert of countries like Egypt and Saudi Arabia. Divakar bought 150 costly young trees and put in considerable effort to enhance the conditions for their growth. Yet, he did not get any return in the first several years. “My mother reminded me why my father did not want me to pursue a farming career. I felt like I was at a crossroads in life but I trusted my heart,” he says. It was only after four and a half years that Divakar saw the first flowering; his joy was beyond description. Today, he can get a generous harvest, and planting dates has earned him significant recognition. Referring to today’s generation, Divakar says, “People these days think it exciting to quit current jobs and take up farming. Many come to me and inquire about investment and profit. Farming comes with its own set of challenges and without any guaranteed success regardless of the best practices one adopts. Farming is not a real-estate business that you will get double the investment in a brief period. They need to measure what they truly value. For me, inner peace is more important than money.” 41. How did a rapid expansion of Bangalore city affect Divakar’s family? A. They started a new business. B. They suffered financial losses. C. They moved to a bigger village. D. They became wealthy in the city. 42. What drove Divakar to reconnect with his farming roots? A. A desire for a simpler life. B. Encouragement from his family. C. His father’s poor health condition. D. The envy of other farmers’ success. 43. Which of the following shows Divakar’s initial farming experience? A. Enjoyable. B. Rewarding. C. Unchallenging. D. Struggling. 44. What does Divakar convey to today’s generation wanting to pursue a farming career? A. Think twice before you act. B. Every cloud has a silver lining. C. What goes around comes around. D. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. 45. What can be the best title for the text? A. A Quick Profit from Farming B. The state of producing a profit of Date Farming C. The Challenges of Modern Farming D. A Journey Back to the Farming Roots 【答案】41. B 42. C 43. D 44. A 45. D 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Begur Divakar放弃自己的高薪工作，选择回到家乡继承父亲的农作。因收益不好，他便选择种植当地没有的海枣，通过自己的努力，他收获了巨大的成功。并告诫那些想要选择农业事业的当代人，要三思而后行，要衡量自己的看重的东西后再决定。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Our village lost its existence with a rapid expansion of Bangalore city. Because of this, families like ours, who depended on farming, lost their source of income.(随着班加罗尔市的快速扩张，我们的村庄失去了存在。因此，像我们这样依赖农业的家庭就失去了收入来源)”可知，因为班加罗尔市的扩张，Divakar的家庭失去了收入来源，遭受了经济危机，故选B。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“He remained completely disconnected from his farming roots until 2009 when his father suffered a serious illness that left him unable to move. That was when Divakar chose to return to his father and started his farming life.(他一直与农业根完全脱节，直到2009年，他的父亲患了一场重病，无法动弹。就在那时，Divakar选择回到父亲身边，开始了他的农耕生活)”可知，因为父亲的身体状况太差，因此Divakar选择了农耕生活，从而与农业根源产生了联系，故选C。 【43题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Initially, Divakar grew crops like local farmers but had much smaller earnings compared to his previous work despite hard work.(起初，Divakar像当地农民一样种植弄作物，但尽管努力工作，与之前的工作相比，他的收入要小得多)”可知，起初，尽管Divakar努力种植，但收入却很少，因此Divakar最开始的农作经历是困难的，故选D。 【44题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段所说的话“Farming is not a real-estate business that you will get double the investment in a brief period. They need to measure what they truly value. For me, inner peace is more important than money.(农业不像是你能在短时间内获得双倍投资的房地产业务。他们需要衡量自己真正看重的是什么。对我来说，内心的平静比金钱重要得多)”可知，Divakar认为，当代的人想要在农业上寻求事业，那么他们需要衡量自己真正看重的东西，因为农业不是一个低投资高收入的产业，故他建议当代人要三思而后行，故选A。 【45题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第二段“He remained completely disconnected from his farming roots until 2009 when his father suffered a serious illness that left him unable to move. That was when Divakar chose to return to his father and started his farming life. (他一直与农业根完全脱节，直到2009年，他的父亲患了一场重病，无法动弹。就在那时，Divakar选择回到父亲身边，开始了他的农耕生活)”并通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了Begur Divakar放弃自己的高薪工作，选择回到家乡继承父亲的农作。因收益不好，他便选择种植当地没有的海枣，通过自己的努力，他收获了巨大的成功，故D项“A Journey Back to the Farming Roots (回到农业根源之旅)”符合文章标题，能概括全文，故选D。 C Have you ever walked into a room and forgotten why you went there, or been about to speak but suddenly realized you had no idea what you were going to say? The human brain normally balances countless inputs, thoughts and actions, but sometimes, it seems to short-circuit (短路) . So what really happens? Understanding why we forget first requires us to tear down the myth about memory. “It is generally believed that memory is just one thing,” said Susanne Jaeggi a professor of psychology. “Indeed, there are very different components of memory, and they’re also related to different cognitive (认知的) processes. ” There are two different types of memory: long-term and working memory. The former is a broad category of memories that involve experience and skills stored in the brain for extended periods. On the other hand, thoughts in working memory are only present for a brief period. “Working memory is like the sketchpad (速写本) of conscious thought,” said Earl K. Miller. a professor of neuroscience at MIT “Every piece of new information, inner dialogue and sensory input is routed through working memory and certain characteristics of working memory explain why we forget those thoughts. ” First, psychologists estimate that people can hold only about four to seven “chunks” (块) of information —such as letters, digits, words or phrases —in their working memory at a time. Rather than being aware of all of these “chunks” -all at once, the brain bounces around from one idea to another, making it more likely to forget one. Second, the brain quickly eradicates unimportant things from working memory to make room for new information. So unless those short-term memories are transferred into long-term memories, they’ll soon disappear. But for those who regularly struggle with thoughts slipping their mind, Jaeggi and Miller have some words to say. In the first place, Miller says multitasking makes forgetting more likely. Jaeggi mentions if you walk into a room and forget why you went in there, go back into the room you were before. The context clues might give the brain the extra boost it needs to reach back a few seconds in working memory and bring back the thought that’s already gone. 46. What phenomenon is described in the first paragraph? A. Human brains can be easily overloaded. B. Human brains experience occasional memory slips. C. Human brains are sensitive to a short circuit condition. D. Human brains frequently switch between different tasks. 47. What common misunderstanding about memory does Jaeggi aim to correct? A. It can be extended via techniques. B. It relies much on external factors. C. It is always accurate and reliable. D. It is a single and simple process. 48. What role does working memory serve as according to Earl K. Miller? A. A strategy for making multitasking brains. B. A place for recording experience and skills. C. A temporary space for processing information. D. A tool for increasing the amount of sensory input. 49. What does the underlined word “eradicates” in paragraph 6 mean? A. gets rid of. B. Focuses on. C. Gets hold of. D. Keeps pace with. 50. What is Jaeggi’s suggestion for recovering a lost thought? A Setting a reminder ahead of time. B. Returning to the previous context. C. Centering on the new task at hand. D. Visualizing the thought in your mind. 【答案】46. B 47. D 48. C 49. A 50. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了我们经常会出现短暂的失忆现象，文章中对此现象进行了分析，并提出了自己的建议。 【46题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Have you ever walked into a room and forgotten why you went there, or been about to speak but suddenly realized you had no idea what you were going to say? The human brain normally balances countless inputs, thoughts and actions, but sometimes, it seems to short-circuit (短路) . So what really happens?(你是否曾经走进一个房间，却忘了自己为什么要去那里？或者你是否曾经想要说话，却突然意识到自己不知道要说什么？人类的大脑通常会平衡无数的输入、想法和行动，但有时它似乎会短路。那么到底发生了什么呢？)”可知，第一段描述了人类大脑偶尔会出现记忆丧失这一现象。故选B项。 【47题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Understanding why we forget first requires us to tear down the myth about memory. “It is generally believed that memory is just one thing,” said Susanne Jaeggi a professor of psychology. “Indeed, there are very different components of memory, and they’re also related to different cognitive (认知的) processes. ”(要理解为什么我们会忘记，首先需要我们打破关于记忆的神话。心理学教授Susanne Jaeggi说：“人们普遍认为记忆只是一件事。“实际上，记忆有非常不同的组成部分，它们也与不同的认知过程有关。”)”可推知，Jaeggi旨在纠正记忆只是一个单一而简单的过程的常见误解。故选D项。 【48题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“On the other hand, thoughts in working memory are only present for a brief period.( 另一方面，工作记忆中的想法只存在很短的一段时间。)”可知，根据厄尔·K·米勒的说法，工作记忆是处理信息的临时空间。故选C项。 【49题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线单词句中“Second, the brain quickly…unimportant things from working memory to make room for new information.(其次，大脑会迅速……工作记忆中不重要的东西，为新信息腾出空间。)”以及下一句“So unless those short-term memories are transferred into long-term memories, they’ll soon disappear.(所以除非这些短期记忆转化为长期记忆，否则它们很快就会消失。)”由此可知，此处为大脑会迅速清除工作记忆中不重要的东西。故可猜测划线单词eradicates为“清除”的意思，和A选项gets rid of“摆脱，消除”意思相近。故选A项。 【50题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Jaeggi mentions if you walk into a room and forget why you went in there, go back into the room you were before. The context clues might give the brain the extra boost it needs to reach back a few seconds in working memory and bring back the thought that’s already gone.( Jaeggi提到，如果你走进一个房间，却忘了你为什么进来，那就回到你之前的房间。上下文线索可能会给大脑额外的刺激，它需要回到几秒钟的工作记忆中，把已经消失的想法带回来。)”可知，Jaeggi对恢复失去的记忆是建议返回到前面的上下文。故选B项。 D Over the past 300 years, 1.5 billion hectares (公顷) of forest have been lost, resulting in biodiversity loss, desertification, and increased flooding risks. In the book Treewilding, ecologist Jake Robinson explains while the solution to forest clearing might appear straightforward—simply plant millions of trees—the reality is far more confusing. Random tree planting can threaten ecosystems and the livelihoods of local communities. This charming book mainly reveals how a well-developed approach is required — one that integrates (融入) the latest scientific advancements, for instance. Treewilding asks us to reflect on our interconnectedness (相互联系) with the woods, a realization that is perhaps the biggest “secret” to restoring nature. Tree-planting initiatives have exploded since the turn of the century. Globally, the area of planted forests rose from 170 million hectares in 1990 to 293 million hectares in 2024. However, unless thoroughly researched and well organized, tree planting can backfire. Often, only one type of tree is planted across pieces of land. This reduces biodiversity, in terms of plant species and the wildlife and micro-organisms associated with them. Because trees of the same species can all fall victim to the same diseases, a whole forest can be wiped out at once. Moreover, non-native trees can beat local species, disturbing the local balanced ecosystems. To solve environmental crises, Robinson advocates a more informed strategy. He speaks to Forrest Fleischman, a specialist in forest and environmental policy, who highlights how local people depend on forests for highly self-sufficient agricultural activities. Fleischman also proposes that locals know well what species are best suited to the environment and how these species are interconnected with the local wildlife and ecosystem. The author also describes the concept of ecoacoustics (生态声学). The approach uses the sounds made by organisms including birds and bats to explore the composition of and changes in ecosystems. Working with ecoacoustics specialist Carlos Abrahams, Robinson concludes that as forests are recovered, the number of animals hidden in the soil increases, producing an “underground soundscape—a hidden symphony of life”. Robinson ultimately emphasizes natural regeneration—just as a phoenix (a mythical bird) is reborn from its own ashes (灰烬), a damaged forest can regenerate itself. 51. What is the main focus of Jake Robinson’s Treewilding? A. The importance of technology in modern agriculture. B. The changes of global forests over the past 300 years. C. Major benefits of maintaining healthy ecosystems. D. Effective methods in solving the loss of forests. 52. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “backfire” in paragraph 4? A. Lead to negative outcomes. B. Produce predictable results. C. Facilitate relevant initiatives. D. Encourage sustainable growth. 53. What might Fleischman expect tree-planting organizers to do? A. Increase the number of non-native species planted. B. Standardize planting practices across different regions. C. Take natives’ knowledge in planting processes into consideration. D. Encourage locals to adopt advanced agricultural methods at once. 54. What insight can researchers gain through the ecoacoustics approach? A. The economic benefits of forest recovery. B. The health and biodiversity of ecosystems. C. A better understanding of local soil composition D. A potential change of forest temperature over time. 55. What can be the best title for the text? A. Forest clearing poses a serious threat to us. B. Repairing forests is more than just planting trees. C. Natural regeneration is the key to ecosystem restoration. D. The underground soundscape allows us to know nature better. 【答案】51. D 52. A 53. C 54. B 55. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了植树并不是想象的那么简单，要综合考虑当地的情况，不能一味地种植同一棵树种，要充分考虑当地物种和生态系统的平衡。 【51题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Over the past 300 years, 1.5 billion hectares (公顷) of forest have been lost, resulting in biodiversity loss, desertification, and increased flooding risks.(在过去300年里，15亿公顷森林消失，导致生物多样性丧失、荒漠化和洪水风险增加。)”以及第三段中“This charming book mainly reveals how a well-developed approach is required — one that integrates (融入) the latest scientific advancements, for instance.(这本引人入胜的书主要揭示了如何需要一个完善的方法——例如，一个整合了最新科学进展的方法。)”可知，杰克·罗宾逊的《Treewilding》这本书主要关注的是解决森林消失的有效方法。故选D项。 【52题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第五段中“Often, only one type of tree is planted across pieces of land. This reduces biodiversity, in terms of plant species and the wildlife and micro-organisms associated with them.(通常，一块土地上只种植一种树木。这减少了生物多样性，就植物物种以及与之相关的野生动物和微生物而言。)”可知，如果缺乏科学规划，只种植一种树木，会导致生物多样性减少，因此“backfire”意为“导致负面结果”。故选A项。 【53题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段中“He speaks to Forrest Fleischman, a specialist in forest and environmental policy, who highlights how local people depend on forests for highly self-sufficient agricultural activities. Fleischman also proposes that locals know well what species are best suited to the environment and how these species are interconnected with the local wildlife and ecosystem.(他采访了森林和环境政策专家福里斯特·弗莱希曼（Forrest Fleischman），弗莱希曼强调了当地人如何依靠森林进行高度自给自足的农业活动。弗莱希曼还提出，当地人很清楚哪些物种最适合环境，以及这些物种如何与当地野生动物和生态系统相互联系。)”可知，弗莱希曼希望植树组织者考虑当地人在种植过程中的知识。故选C项。 【54题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“The author also describes the concept of ecoacoustics (生态声学) . The approach uses the sounds made by organisms including birds and bats to explore the composition of and changes in ecosystems. Working with ecoacoustics specialist Carlos Abrahams, Robinson concludes that as forests are recovered, the number of animals hidden in the soil increases, producing an “underground soundscape—a hidden symphony of life”.(作者还介绍了生态声学的概念。该方法利用鸟类和蝙蝠等生物发出的声音来探索生态系统的组成和变化。与生态声学专家卡洛斯·亚伯拉罕合作，罗宾逊得出结论，随着森林的恢复，隐藏在土壤中的动物数量增加，产生了一种“地下声景——一种隐藏的生命交响曲”。)”可推知，研究人员可以通过生态声学方法获得生态系统的健康和生物多样性这一见解。故选B项。 【55题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及第三段中“This charming book mainly reveals how a well-developed approach is required — one that integrates (融入) the latest scientific advancements, for instance.(这本引人入胜的书主要揭示了如何需要一个完善的方法——例如，一个整合了最新科学进展的方法。)”和第四段中“However, unless thoroughly researched and well organized, tree planting can backfire.( 然而，除非进行彻底的调查和组织，否则植树可能会适得其反。)”可知，这本书主要介绍的是一种有效的森林恢复的方法，以及如何避免植物的弊端。故文章最好的标题是“修复森林不仅仅是植树”。故选B项。 第Ⅱ卷 非选择题(共35分) 第四部分：写作(共两节，满分35分) 第一节：阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 My dad told me that when I was two years old, I said I was going to be the next Michael Jordan. My dad took my wish seriously. One day when I was 3, he asked, “Do you want to be the next Michael Jordan and are you willing to. do any amount of workouts in order to achieve this—whether it’s windy or snowy?” I nodded. Then he handed a piece of paper to me, and warned, “I his will be one serious promise. ” He let me sign my name on the paper. Unknown about what he had written on the paper, I sensed the seriousness of the moment. The next early morning, my father pushed me to the driveway for playing basketball. “First,” he instructed, “we will start with the art of dribbling (运球) .” I looked at him, unsure if he was serious, and threw the basketball with both hands back to him as he began to instruct me. I stood out in that driveway for three hours that morning. Never had I felt more tired in my three years of life. Every time my attention began to wander, my father would strictly drag me back to the present. I was beginning to repent of my decision to be the female version of Michael Jordan a little bit. In the following mornings, my dad dragged me out to the driveway to continually coach me. Each time I wanted to give up, he would take my signed piece of paper, telling me that I couldn’t take back my words then. By the age of ten, after approximately 7,350 hours, my dad predicted my skill was better than my peers’ in the state. My dad began telling me that being a world-class expert required 10,000 hours of practice. Then I had a new goal. One tough day, when I was fourteen, at the end of our practice session, my dad said, “Congratulations!” That evening, we had a party, with a basketball-shaped cake with the number 10,000. During the party, my dad asked, “So are you going to quit now? ” I smiled, “Never! WNBA, here I come. ” 56. What promise did the author make by signing her name on the paper?

My dad took my wish seriously. One day when I was 3, he asked, “Do you want to be the next Michael Jordan and are you willing to. do any amount of workouts in order to achieve this—whether it’s windy or snowy?” I nodded.(我爸爸告诉我，当我两岁的时候，我说我要成为下一个迈克尔·乔丹。我爸爸很认真地对待我的愿望。我三岁时的一天，他问我：“你想成为下一个迈克尔·乔丹吗？你愿意吗？”为了达到这个目标，无论刮风还是下雪，你都要做一些锻炼吗？”我点了点头。)”以及第二段中“Then he handed a piece of paper to me, and warned, “I his will be one serious promise. ” He let me sign my name on the paper.”(然后他递给我一张纸，提醒我说：“我将给你一个严肃的承诺。”他让我在纸上签名。)可知，作者在纸上签名做出了“她会尽最大努力成为下一个迈克尔·乔丹”这个承诺。故答案是：She’d try her best to be the next Michael Jorden. 【57题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第三段中““First,” he instructed, “we will start with the art of dribbling (运球) .” I looked at him, unsure if he was serious, and threw the basketball with both hands back to him as he began to instruct me. I stood out in that driveway for three hours that morning. Never had I felt more tired in my three years of life.(“首先，”他指示道，“我们将从运球开始。”我看着他，不确定他是不是认真的，在他开始指导我的时候，我双手把篮球扔回给他。那天早上我在私人车道上站了三个小时。在我三年的生活中，我从来没有感到这么累过。)”可知，作者在签字后的第二天早上如此疲惫是因为父亲对她进行了严格的篮球训练。故答案是：Because of receiving tough basketball training from her dad. 【58题详解】 考查词义猜测。根据第三段中“Never had I felt more tired in my three years of life.(在我三年的生活中，我从来没有感到这么累过。)”以及第四段中“In the following mornings, my dad dragged me out to the driveway to continually coach me. Each time I wanted to give up, he would take my signed piece of paper, telling me that I couldn’t take back my words then.(在接下来的几个早晨，爸爸把我拖到私人车道上，不断地指导我。每次我想放弃的时候，他就会拿走我签过名的那张纸，告诉我说我不能收回我的话。)”由此可知，此处为作者开始有点后悔自己要成为女版迈克尔·乔丹的决定。故可猜测划线单词repent为“后悔”的意思。和Regret“后悔”意思一致。故答案是：Regret。 【59题详解】 考查细节理解。根据最后一段中“My dad began telling me that being a world-class expert required 10,000 hours of practice. Then I had a new goal. One tough day, when I was fourteen, at the end of our practice session, my dad said, “Congratulations!” That evening, we had a party, with a basketball-shaped cake with the number 10,000.(爸爸开始告诉我，要成为世界级的高手，需要一万个小时的练习。然后我有了一个新的目标。在我十四岁那年，有一天，我们的训练结束了，爸爸对我说：“恭喜你！”那天晚上，我们举行了一个聚会，有一个篮球形状的蛋糕，上面写着数字10000。)”可知，作者的父亲祝贺她完成了1万小时的篮球训练。故答案是：Finishing 10,000 hours of basketball practice. 【60题详解】 考查主观评价。根据文章大意以及题干的问题可知，我从作者的故事中学到了：设定目标后，我们应该不遗余力地去实现它，不管它有多大的挑战。故答案是：After setting a goal, we should keep sparing no effort to achieve it no matter how challenging it is. 第二节：书面表达(满分25分) 61. 假如你是晨光中学学生李津。你校学生会正在举办“送你一朵小红花”（Presenting A Red Flower to You）活动，要求每位学生亲手制作一朵红色小花送给一个特殊的人，表达敬意、感激或鼓励等。请你用英文给你的美国朋友 Chris写一封email，介绍本次活动，要点如下： 1. 活动的目的； 2. 你想把小红花送给谁，并简述原因； 3. 你的感受。 注意： 1. 词数不少于100。 2. 可适当增加细节。 3. 开头已给出，不计入总词数。 Dear Chris, ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Jin 【答案】参考范文： Dear Chris, How is everything?

B Growing up in a small village Begur Divakar recalls “Our village lost its existence with a rapid expansion of Bangalore city. Because of this, families like ours, who depended on farming, lost their source of income. My father was forced to buy land around 100 km away from the city to continue farming. He never let us help on the land as he wanted us to focus on our studies and leave his farming roots behind.” Divakar grew up to become a project scientist at the India Space Research Organization. He remained completely disconnected from his farming roots until 2009 when his father suffered a serious illness that left him unable to move. That was when Divakar chose to return to his father and started his farming life. Initially, Divakar grew crops like local farmers but had much smaller earnings compared to his previous work despite hard work. In order to stand out in the farming crowd, Divakar intended to grow a different crop. After thorough research, he turned to dates (海枣) — a crop grown in the hot desert of countries like Egypt and Saudi Arabia. Divakar bought 150 costly young trees and put in considerable effort to enhance the conditions for their growth. Yet, he did not get any return in the first several years. “My mother reminded me why my father did not want me to pursue a farming career. I felt like I was at a crossroads in life but I trusted my heart,” he says. It was only after four and a half years that Divakar saw the first flowering; his joy was beyond description. Today, he can get a generous harvest, and planting dates has earned him significant recognition. Referring to today’s generation, Divakar says, “People these days think it exciting to quit current jobs and take up farming. Many come to me and inquire about investment and profit. Farming comes with its own set of challenges and without any guaranteed success regardless of the best practices one adopts. Farming is not a real-estate business that you will get double the investment in a brief period. They need to measure what they truly value. For me, inner peace is more important than money.” 41. How did a rapid expansion of Bangalore city affect Divakar’s family? A. They started a new business. B. They suffered financial losses. C. They moved to a bigger village. D. They became wealthy in the city. 42. What drove Divakar to reconnect with his farming roots? A. A desire for a simpler life. B. Encouragement from his family. C. His father’s poor health condition. D. The envy of other farmers’ success. 43. Which of the following shows Divakar’s initial farming experience? A. Enjoyable. B. Rewarding. C. Unchallenging. D. Struggling. 44. What does Divakar convey to today’s generation wanting to pursue a farming career? A. Think twice before you act. B. Every cloud has a silver lining. C. What goes around comes around. D. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. 45. What can be the best title for the text? A. A Quick Profit from Farming B. The state of producing a profit of Date Farming C. The Challenges of Modern Farming D. A Journey Back to the Farming Roots C Have you ever walked into a room and forgotten why you went there, or been about to speak but suddenly realized you had no idea what you were going to say? The human brain normally balances countless inputs, thoughts and actions, but sometimes, it seems to short-circuit (短路) . So what really happens? Understanding why we forget first requires us to tear down the myth about memory. “It is generally believed that memory is just one thing,” said Susanne Jaeggi a professor of psychology. “Indeed, there are very different components of memory, and they’re also related to different cognitive (认知的) processes. ” There are two different types of memory: long-term and working memory. The former is a broad category of memories that involve experience and skills stored in the brain for extended periods. On the other hand, thoughts in working memory are only present for a brief period. “Working memory is like the sketchpad (速写本) of conscious thought,” said Earl K. Miller. a professor of neuroscience at MIT “Every piece of new information, inner dialogue and sensory input is routed through working memory and certain characteristics of working memory explain why we forget those thoughts. ” First, psychologists estimate that people can hold only about four to seven “chunks” (块) of information —such as letters, digits, words or phrases —in their working memory at a time. Rather than being aware of all of these “chunks” -all at once, the brain bounces around from one idea to another, making it more likely to forget one. Second, the brain quickly eradicates unimportant things from working memory to make room for new information. So unless those short-term memories are transferred into long-term memories, they’ll soon disappear. But for those who regularly struggle with thoughts slipping their mind, Jaeggi and Miller have some words to say. In the first place, Miller says multitasking makes forgetting more likely. Jaeggi mentions if you walk into a room and forget why you went in there, go back into the room you were before. The context clues might give the brain the extra boost it needs to reach back a few seconds in working memory and bring back the thought that’s already gone. 46. What phenomenon is described in the first paragraph? A. Human brains can be easily overloaded. B. Human brains experience occasional memory slips. C. Human brains are sensitive to a short circuit condition. D. Human brains frequently switch between different tasks. 47. What common misunderstanding about memory does Jaeggi aim to correct? A. It can be extended via techniques. B. It relies much on external factors. C. It is always accurate and reliable. D. It is a single and simple process. 48. What role does working memory serve as according to Earl K. Miller? A. A strategy for making multitasking brains. B. A place for recording experience and skills. C. A temporary space for processing information. D. A tool for increasing the amount of sensory input. 49. What does the underlined word “eradicates” in paragraph 6 mean? A. gets rid of. B. Focuses on. C. Gets hold of. D. Keeps pace with. 50. What is Jaeggi’s suggestion for recovering a lost thought? A. Setting a reminder ahead of time. B. Returning to the previous context. C. Centering on the new task at hand. D. Visualizing the thought in your mind. D Over the past 300 years, 1.5 billion hectares (公顷) of forest have been lost, resulting in biodiversity loss, desertification, and increased flooding risks. In the book Treewilding, ecologist Jake Robinson explains while the solution to forest clearing might appear straightforward—simply plant millions of trees—the reality is far more confusing. Random tree planting can threaten ecosystems and the livelihoods of local communities. This charming book mainly reveals how a well-developed approach is required — one that integrates (融入) the latest scientific advancements, for instance. Treewilding asks us to reflect on our interconnectedness (相互联系) with the woods, a realization that is perhaps the biggest “secret” to restoring nature. Tree-planting initiatives have exploded since the turn of the century. Globally, the area of planted forests rose from 170 million hectares in 1990 to 293 million hectares in 2024. However, unless thoroughly researched and well organized, tree planting can backfire. Often, only one type of tree is planted across pieces of land. This reduces biodiversity, in terms of plant species and the wildlife and micro-organisms associated with them. Because trees of the same species can all fall victim to the same diseases, a whole forest can be wiped out at once. Moreover, non-native trees can beat local species, disturbing the local balanced ecosystems. To solve environmental crises, Robinson advocates a more informed strategy. He speaks to Forrest Fleischman, a specialist in forest and environmental policy, who highlights how local people depend on forests for highly self-sufficient agricultural activities. Fleischman also proposes that locals know well what species are best suited to the environment and how these species are interconnected with the local wildlife and ecosystem. The author also describes the concept of ecoacoustics (生态声学). The approach uses the sounds made by organisms including birds and bats to explore the composition of and changes in ecosystems. Working with ecoacoustics specialist Carlos Abrahams, Robinson concludes that as forests are recovered, the number of animals hidden in the soil increases, producing an “underground soundscape—a hidden symphony of life”. Robinson ultimately emphasizes natural regeneration—just as a phoenix (a mythical bird) is reborn from its own ashes (灰烬), a damaged forest can regenerate itself. 51. What is the main focus of Jake Robinson’s Treewilding? A. The importance of technology in modern agriculture. B. The changes of global forests over the past 300 years. C. Major benefits of maintaining healthy ecosystems. D. Effective methods in solving the loss of forests. 52. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “backfire” in paragraph 4? A. Lead to negative outcomes. B. Produce predictable results. C. Facilitate relevant initiatives. D. Encourage sustainable growth. 53. What might Fleischman expect tree-planting organizers to do? A. Increase the number of non-native species planted. B. Standardize planting practices across different regions. C. Take natives’ knowledge in planting processes into consideration. D. Encourage locals to adopt advanced agricultural methods at once. 54. What insight can researchers gain through the ecoacoustics approach? A. The economic benefits of forest recovery. B. The health and biodiversity of ecosystems. C. A better understanding of local soil composition D. A potential change of forest temperature over time. 55. What can be the best title for the text? A. Forest clearing poses a serious threat to us. B. Repairing forests is more than just planting trees. C. Natural regeneration is the key to ecosystem restoration. D. The underground soundscape allows us to know nature better. 第Ⅱ卷 非选择题(共35分) 第四部分：写作(共两节，满分35分) 第一节：阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 My dad told me that when I was two years old, I said I was going to be the next Michael Jordan. My dad took my wish seriously. One day when I was 3, he asked, “Do you want to be the next Michael Jordan and are you willing to. do any amount of workouts in order to achieve this—whether it’s windy or snowy?” I nodded. Then he handed a piece of paper to me, and warned, “I his will be one serious promise. ” He let me sign my name on the paper. Unknown about what he had written on the paper, I sensed the seriousness of the moment. The next early morning, my father pushed me to the driveway for playing basketball. “First,” he instructed, “we will start with the art of dribbling (运球) .” I looked at him, unsure if he was serious, and threw the basketball with both hands back to him as he began to instruct me. I stood out in that driveway for three hours that morning. Never had I felt more tired in my three years of life. Every time my attention began to wander, my father would strictly drag me back to the present. I was beginning to repent of my decision to be the female version of Michael Jordan a little bit. In the following mornings, my dad dragged me out to the driveway to continually coach me. Each time I wanted to give up, he would take my signed piece of paper, telling me that I couldn’t take back my words then. By the age of ten, after approximately 7,350 hours, my dad predicted my skill was better than my peers’ in the state. My dad began telling me that being a world-class expert required 10,000 hours of practice. Then I had a new goal. One tough day, when I was fourteen, at the end of our practice session, my dad said, “Congratulations!” That evening, we had a party, with a basketball-shaped cake with the number 10,000. During the party, my dad asked, “So are you going to quit now? ” I smiled, “Never! WNBA, here I come. ” 56. What promise did the author make by signing her name on the paper?
