My devotion brought me achievements in publications, and a university position. But I was still exhausted and upset by feelings of not being good enough when I compared myself with coworkers who were more productive and fathers who seemed to be better with their kids. The turning point came a few years later during a conversation with a good friend. When I told him about my struggles, he questioned me whether doing better meant that I was not doing a good job. That helped me see that, apart from the occasional misstep, was doing well at my job and that my children were growing up in a loving home. I realized that what needed to change was not my work but my mentality. I reflected on how I wanted to behave as a scientist and a teacher. Was this career about accumulating the largest number of publications? Did I want to be a teacher who was just absorbed in his world? The answer to both questions was negative. The process of transformation didn’t unfold as smoothly as expected, particularly when it came to overcoming negative thoughts, which required a significant amount of time. Nonetheless, the positive changes I made proved to be highly beneficial. I’ve also summarized three specific points that enable me to realize my intentions while also furthering my research and career, building personal connection, sharing ideas freely and being a reliable and fun operator. I’ve seen how working with co-workers, with whom I have a personal connection unlocks creativity and Drives progress.Such connections don’t form overnight, but when I take the time to strengthen them by sharing news and personal conversations, I know the time is well spent. My productivity hasn’t suffered; if anything, my research has benefited from increased activity and engagement. 4. Why did the author feel tired and stressed? A. Because he was dissatisfied with himself. B. Because he couldn’t gain others’ recognition. C. Because he had tense relationships with his partners. D.

Four million trees, 90 percent of which are hardy Aleppo pine trees, spread over almost 12 square miles of semi-dry land. The trees are neither irrigated nor fertilized, yet somehow the forest has survived for almost 60 years. Yatir Forest proves we can prevent desertification, and heal the wounded earth.many locals said. But is it true? “Fifteen years’ measurements in Yatir do show that the forest takes up a surprising amount of carbon,” said Rafat Oubaja, a Palestinian researcher. In satellite pictures, Yatir Forest forms a huge dark mass in the desert, meaning it absorbs more solar radiation. As is shown in the research findings.the darker Yatir Forest absorbs more energy, turns it into heat, and releases it back into the atmosphere, and it may take more than 200 years for the forest to have a net cooling effect-if it survives that long. “Aleppo pine trees could grow rapidly on any kind of soil, but you don’t have to stick them in every place,” said Alon Rothschild, head of the Society for the Protection of Nature in Israel (SPNI) “Planting forests in naturally unforested open spaces, such as grasslands and shrublands, cause threats to native species, including endangered ground-nesting birds, which need open landscapes to dive for food. The heavy machinery used in tree planting can also damage fragile dry land soils, where insects, reptiles, and birds live.” “Aleppo pine trees are hardy but also short-lived. Twenty to thirty years from now, the origin pine trees will be dead or dying, and there is very little regeneration of the forest,” said Klein, who suggested planting other trees, especially acacia trees (金合欢树). Acacia trees can tolerate extremely due to their long roots. “Under future drying and warming situations,” Klein and his co-author noted, “thinly scattered woodlands consisting of deep-rooted acacia might survive climate change better than dense forests.” “I’ m sure that if no one touches the forest in 100 years, when you come to visit here, you’ ll sees one acacia trees standing,” Rotenberg said. “The forest won’t give up very easily.” 8. What does Yatir Forest mean to the locals? A. It helps them survive starvation. B. It has an uncertain future. C. ft brings hope for environmental recovery. D. It is quite a challenging process. 9. What can be known from researchers’ findings about Yatir Forest? A. It has been out of control. B. It fails to cool the earth at present. C. It absorbs much heat from the air. D. It’s expected to live over two centuries. 10. Which of the following may Alon Rothschild agree with? A. There should be room for grasslands and shrublands. B. The heavy machinery expands forest animals’ habitat. C. Trees should be planted in naturally unforested open spaces. D. The number of trees determines the quality of the environment. 11. How does Klein plan to guarantee the future of Yatir Forest? A. By applying fertilizer regularly. B. By improving irrigation techniques. C. By planting more adaptable tree species. D. By multiplying the diversity of animal species 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了以色列的亚蒂尔是如何通过种植森林的方式来对抗荒漠化。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Yatir Forest proves we can prevent desertification, and heal the wounded earth, many locals said. (很多当地人说，雅提尔森林证明我们可以防治荒漠化，治愈受伤的地球)”可知，雅提尔森林对于当地人来说，意味着环境恢复的希望。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Fifteen years' measurements in Yatir do show that the forest takes up a surprising amount of carbon,” said Rafat Oubaja, a Palestinian researcher.“The darker Yatir Forest absorbs more energy, turns it into heat, and releases it back into the atmosphere, and it may take more than 200 years for the forest to have a net cooling effect - if it survives that long.(巴勒斯坦研究员Rafat Oubaja说，雅提尔15年的测量结果确实显示这片森林吸收了惊人的碳，“较暗的雅提尔森林吸收更多能量，将其转化为热量，并将其释放回大气中，森林可能需要超过200年才会产生净冷却效应——如果它能存在那么久的话)”可知，研究表明雅提尔森林目前没有实际为地球降温，尽管它吸收了大量的碳和热。故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段““Aleppo pine trees could grow rapidly on any kind of soil, but you don’t have to stick them in every place,” said Alon Rothschild, head of the Society for the Protection of Nature in Israel (SPNI)(以色列自然保护协会（SPNI）的负责人Alon Rothschild说：“阿勒颇松树可以在任何土壤上快速生长，但你不必把它们种在任何地方。”)以及第四段“Planting forests in naturally unforested open spaces, such as grasslands and shrublands, cause.threats to native species (在天然无森林的空旷地区，如草原和灌木丛中种植森林，会对本地物种造成威胁)”可知，Alon Rothschild认为草地和灌木地不应被过度森林化，故选A。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第五段“Twenty to thirty years from now, the origin pine trees will be dead or dying, and there is very little regeneration of the forest,“ said Klein, who suggested planting other trees, especially acacia trees (金合欢树). Acacia trees can tolerate extremely due to their long roots.(Klein说：“从现在起二三十年后，原始的松树将会死亡或死亡，森林的再生很少。”他建议种植其他树木，特别是金合欢树。金合欢树因其根长而具有极强的耐受性)”可知，Klein计划通过种植更适应气候变化的树种来保障雅提尔森林的未来。故选C。 D Like many industries worldwide, Australia’s fruit-picking industry was impacted heavily during the COVID-19 pandemic, creating a shortage of workers in the labor market that would normally be filled by travelers looking to make money on the road. Local researchers came up with a partial solution to this problem, developing a fruit-picking robot that can harvest apples at a high speed. Robots have benefited the world of agriculture in various ways, from inspecting crops and raising sheep to searching fields and removing weeds. We’ re also starting to see how they’ re playing a role in’ food production, with robots already appearing that can pick certain small pieces of fruit and harvest certain vegetables, or even shape fruit trees to keep them healthy and free from disease. Researchers in Australia turned their attention to apples. The robot used a mix of cameras and deep learning algorithms (算法) to scan the trees in’ a field and detect the pieces of fruit, which required the robot to process information on their shape, the stem-branch joint’s location, etc. The robot collected apples with a specially designed soft “hand” with four fingers and a pneumatic sucking system (吸系统) that drew the apples from the branches into the “hand”. The “hand” could reduce damage to the fruit and the tree itself to the smallest extent. Its sucking system could reduce the need for the “hand” to reach into the branches, thus inhibiting potential damage to its surroundings. According to the research team, the robot could identify over 90 percent of apples within the view of its camera and a distance of around 1.2 m, And the machine could operate in all lighting and weather conditions, and required less than 200 milliseconds to process an apple’ s image. So far, there searchers have been conducting field trials, and they report the robot damaged less than 6 percent of its collected fruit. 12. What problem did Australia’s fruit industry face? A. A growing demand for fruit. B. The decreased output of the fruit. C. The rising cost of collecting fruit. D. A lack of fruit-collecting workers. 13. What can be concluded about robots from paragraph 2? A. They are made in a shape of a tree. B. They are widely applied in agriculture. C. They have strengths and also weaknesses. D. They are very efficient tools for harvesting crops. 14. Which word below can replace the underlined “inhibiting” in paragraph 4? A. Causing. B. Preventing. C. Forbidding. D. Hiding. 15. Which can be the best title for the text? A. Robots can Help Pick Apples B. Robots will Replace Workers C. Robots will Come to Market Soon D. Robots Can Pick Apples More Efficiently 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍澳大利亚因疫情水果采摘业缺工，研发出高速采苹果机器人，阐述其在农业应用、工作原理及良好性能表现。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Like many industries worldwide, Australia’s fruit-picking industry was impacted heavily during the COVID-19 pandemic, creating a shortage of workers in the labor market that would normally be filled by travelers looking to make money on the road. (与世界各地的许多行业一样，澳大利亚的水果加工业在新冠肺炎大流行期间受到了严重影响，造成劳动力市场的劳动力短缺，而劳动力市场通常由希望在路上赚钱的旅行者填补)”可知，澳大利亚水果采摘行业在新冠疫情期间劳动力市场出现工人短缺问题。故选D。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Robots have benefited the world of agriculture in various ways, from inspecting crops and raising sheep to searching fields and removing weeds. We’ re also starting to see how they’ re playing a role in’ food production, with robots already appearing that can pick certain small pieces of fruit and harvest certain vegetables, or even shape fruit trees to keep them healthy and free from disease. (机器人以各种方式使农业世界受益，从检查作物和饲养绵羊到搜索田地和清除杂草。我们也开始看到它们如何在食品生产中发挥作用，机器人已经出现，可以采摘某些小块水果和收获某些蔬菜，甚至可以塑造果树以保持健康和免于疾病)” 可知，机器人在农业中的应用非常广泛，并且在提高效率方面表现出色。故选B。 【14题详解】 词义猜测题。根据文章第四段划线词所在的前半句“Its sucking system could reduce the need for the “hand” to reach into the branches (它的吮吸系统可以减少“手”伸进树枝的需要)” 可知，前文说其吮吸系统减少了 “手” 伸进树枝的需求，“thus”表示因果关系，再根据划线词所在的后半句“I potential damage to its surroundings (对周围环境的潜在损害)”可知，这样做应该是防止对周围环境造成潜在损害，“inhibiting”在这里的意思是“阻止”，与“Preventing”意思相近。故选B。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Local researchers came up with a partial solution to this problem, developing a fruit-picking robot that can harvest apples at a high speed. (当地研究人员提出了一个部分解决方案，开发了一种可以高速采摘苹果的水果采摘机器人)”和文章第二段“Robots have benefited the world of agriculture in various ways, from inspecting crops and raising sheep to searching fields and removing weeds. We’ re also starting to see how they’ re playing a role in’ food production, with robots already appearing that can pick certain small pieces of fruit and harvest certain vegetables, or even shape fruit trees to keep them healthy and free from disease. (机器人以各种方式使农业世界受益，从检查作物和饲养绵羊到搜索田地和清除杂草。我们也开始看到它们如何在食品生产中发挥作用，机器人已经出现，可以采摘某些小块水果和收获某些蔬菜，甚至可以塑造果树以保持健康和免于疾病)” 以及文章最后一段“So far, there searchers have been conducting field trials, and they report the robot damaged less than 6 percent of its collected fruit. (到目前为止，这些搜索者一直在进行实地试验，他们报告说，机器人损坏的水果不到其收集水果的6%)”可知，文章主要讲述澳大利亚研究人员研发出能高速采摘苹果的机器人，介绍了其工作原理、优势及试验情况等，围绕机器人帮助采摘苹果展开。所以A选项“Robots can Help Pick Apples (机器人可以帮助摘苹果)”为最佳标题。故选A。 第二节 (共5小题; 每小题 2.5分,满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Glitter (闪光纸屑) is widely used to decorate clothing, arts, and so on. During festivals and celebrations, it brings joy and excitement, creating a dazzling atmosphere that unites people in the celebration. ____16____ It is necessary to know why. The problem with glitter is that it is a microplastic that doesn’t break down naturally. ____17____ And it makes products that you may normally wish to recycle, such as wrapping paper, no longer recyclable. This is why the UK government has put out guidance on festive waste, reminding households not to put shiny or glittery Christmas cards or wrapping paper in recycling bags. Besides, due to its size, lots of plastic glitter will unavoidably make its way into water, rivers.and eventually the oceans. ___18___.This has been shown to significantly impact the reproduction rates of oysters and make other. animals less active, more likely to be eaten and less likely to thrive. ____19____ Increasing research shows glitter ends up back on our dinner tables. Aside from directly finding its way into our food from glittery cards and decorations, it’s consumed by fish, shellfish,seabirds and other marine life, thus passing through the food chain and eventually reaching us and harming our health. While restricting glitter is only an extremely small step in addressing the broader microplastic problem, the European Union has taken the lead in this. Leading UK retailers such as Morrisons should be praised for taking a stand and going completely glitter free. ____20____ But if we are to protect our planet, no step is too small. A. Marine life often mistakes it for food. B. The glitter you used a decade ago probably still exists. C. But it is now officially prohibited in the European Union. D. More and more people are paying attention to food safety E. It will take a long time to solve the problem of microplastics F. Banning glitter obviously won’t completely save the climate or animals. G. Glitter also contributes to the increasing microplastics inside human bodies. 【答案】16. C 17. B 18. A 19. G 20. F 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了闪光纸屑虽在节庆装饰中带来欢乐，但因难降解、污染环境及危害健康等问题，欧盟已限制其使用。 【16题详解】 根据上文“Glitter (闪光纸屑) is widely used to decorate clothing, arts, and so on. During festivals and celebrations, it brings joy and excitement, creating a dazzling atmosphere that unites people in the celebration. (闪光纸屑被广泛用于装饰服装、艺术等。在节日和庆祝活动中，它带来了欢乐和兴奋，营造出一种令人眼花缭乱的氛围，将人们团结在庆祝活动中。)”可知，上文描述闪光纸屑的广泛应用及积极作用，再根据下文“It is necessary to know why. (有必要知道为什么。)” 可知，此处应该是说闪光纸屑现在有了限制情况。故C选项“But it is now officially prohibited in the European Union. (但现在它在欧盟被正式禁止。)” 能承上启下，符合题意。故选C。 【17题详解】 根据上文“The problem with glitter is that it is a microplastic that doesn’t break down naturally. (闪光纸屑的问题在于它是一种不会自然分解的微塑料。)” 可知，本空要围绕其难以分解展开，接下来的句子应该进一步说明这个问题的影响。故B选项“The glitter you used a decade ago probably still exists. (你十年前用过的闪光纸屑可能仍然存在。)” 能承接上文，体现其难以分解，长时间存在的特点，符合题意。故选B。 【18题详解】 根据上文“Besides, due to its size, lots of plastic glitter will unavoidably make its way into water, rivers.and eventually the oceans. (此外，由于其大小，大量的塑料闪光纸屑将不可避免地进入水、河流，最终进入海洋。)”可知，这段描述了闪光纸屑进入水体并最终流入海洋的过程。再根据下文“This has been shown to significantly impact the reproduction rates of oysters and make other animals less active, more likely to be eaten and less likely to thrive. (这已被证明会显著影响牡蛎的繁殖率，并使其他动物不那么活跃，更有可能被吃掉，也不太可能茁壮成长。)”可知，闪光纸屑对海洋生物产生了显著影响，故本句要表达的是海洋生物经常把它误认为是食物。故A选项“Marine life often mistakes it for food. (海洋生物经常把它误认为食物。)” 能承上启下，符合题意。故选A。 【19题详解】 根据下文“Increasing research shows glitter ends up back on our dinner tables. Aside from directly finding its way into our. food from glittery cards and decorations, it’s consumed by fish, shellfish,seabirds and other marine life, thus passing through the food chain and eventually reaching us and harming our health. (越来越多的研究表明，闪光纸屑最终会回到我们的餐桌上。除了直接进入我们的。来自闪闪发光的卡片和装饰品的食物，被鱼类、贝类、海鸟和其他海洋生物食用，从而穿过食物链，最终到达我们身边，危害我们的健康。)”可知，后文详细阐述了闪光纸屑如何通过食物链最终到达人类餐桌并危害健康的，因此，本空要说闪光纸屑与人体摄入微塑料的关系。故G选项“Glitter also contributes to the increasing microplastics inside human bodies. (闪光纸屑也会导致人体内微塑料的增加。)”能引出下文，符合题意。故选G。 【20题详解】 根据上文“While restricting glitter is only an extremely small step in addressing the broader microplastic problem, the European Union has taken the lead in this. Leading UK retailers such as Morrisons should be praised for taking a stand and going completely glitter free. (虽然限制闪光纸屑只是解决更广泛的微塑料问题的一小步，但欧盟在这方面已经处于领先地位。Morrisons等英国领先的零售商应该受到赞扬，因为他们采取了立场，完全没有闪闪发光的产品。)”以及下文“But if we are to protect our planet, no step is too small. (但如果我们要保护我们的星球，没有一步是太小的。)”可知，本空要表达禁止闪光纸屑虽作用有限但很意义很大。故F选项“Banning glitter obviously won’t completely save the climate or animals. (禁止闪光纸屑显然不会完全拯救气候或动物。)” 能承上启下，符合题意。故选F。 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) In the town of Willowbrook, I was known as the ‘‘stranger” who kept to myself.

One autumn afternoon, the basketball team was preparing for the big championship in the gym.“Ley, Thomas! Why don’t you join the team? we could use someone smart like you to help wit strategy,” Jake called out to Thomas. Thomas, absorbed in textbooks at a nearby table, looked up, clearly annoyed. “Very funny, Jake I’m focused on my studies, not your games,” he answered sharply, “Besides, who needs strategy when you’ve got talent?” Jake laughed, not bothered by his response. “Talent only gets you so far, you know. You should try pushing your limits instead of hiding behind those books.” As time went by, Thomas’s goal to keep his top grades began to weigh heavily on him. One night, he stayed up late studying, but soon felt too tired to continue. He suddenly found himself questioning if he was giving up too much just for good grades. Meanwhile, Jake had his own stress. His team relied on him, but he felt the burden of expectations. Lying in bed, he thought about the championship game and his fear of letting everyone down. “What if l mess up?” His stomach tightened with worry. Finally, the big day came. The gym was packed with students, all excited for the game. Thomas sat in the stand, his heart racing — not just from the game, but from his inner struggle. He had promised himself he wouldn’t let his grades slip, yet part of him longed to experience the excitement of supporting the team. At first, Jake played well, but in the fourth quarter, his team was behind by ten points. He took a three-point shot that missed. In that moment, he felt the weight of the world on his shoulders. “What’s wrong with me?” he whispered to himself. 注意: 1.续写词数应为 150左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Thomas noticed Jake’s struggle and felt an urge to help. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ In the final seconds, Jake had the ball, and the score was tied. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Thomas noticed Jake’s struggle and felt an urge to help. Despite his initial reluctance, he realized that Jake needed more than just talent to succeed. Thomas quickly grabbed a piece of paper and started jotting down some strategic ideas. He then rushed to the sidelines and caught Jake’s attention during a timeout. “Hey, Jake! I’ve got some ideas that might help,” Thomas shouted, waving the paper. Jake, surprised but grateful, nodded and motioned for him to come closer. Thomas explained his plan, focusing on how Jake could better position himself and his teammates to score. Jake listened intently, realizing that Thomas’s knowledge could be the key to their victory. In the final seconds Jake had the ball, and the score was tied. His heart pounded as he recalled Thomas’s advice. He took a deep breath, focused on the goal, and made a swift move. The crowd held its breath as Jake took the shot. The ball arched through the air and swished through the net. The gym erupted in cheers as Crestwood High won the championship. Jake and Thomas embraced, both realizing that their combined efforts had made all the difference. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了个性迥然不同的两名高中生Thomas和Jake如何通过彼此的互动改变了自己。在决定命运的一场篮球比赛中，Jake面临压力，Thomas不仅从学习中找到了帮助别人和自己的感觉，还意识到计划的重要性。经过短暂的场外合作，Jake将球投进球篮赢得比赛，展示了发挥团队力量的重要性。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“Thomas注意到Jake的艰难挣扎，想要帮忙”可知，第一段可描写Thomas帮忙，Jake耐心听取建议 ②由第二段首句内容“在最后几秒，杰克拿到了球，比分打平了。”可知，第二段可描写Jake想起了Thomas的建议，投篮赢得比赛。 2.续写线索：Thomas帮忙——Jake很惊讶，专心地听着建议——想起Thomas的忠告——投篮获胜 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①意识到：realize/be aware of ②成功：succeed/make it ③吸引：catch /draw ④拥抱：embrace/hug 情绪类 ①感激的：grateful/appreciative ②惊讶的：surprised/astonished 【点睛】[高分句型1] His heart pounded as he recalled Thomas’s advice.

My devotion brought me achievements in publications, and a university position. But I was still exhausted and upset by feelings of not being good enough when I compared myself with coworkers who were more productive and fathers who seemed to be better with their kids. The turning point came a few years later during a conversation with a good friend. When I told him about my struggles, he questioned me whether doing better meant that I was not doing a good job. That helped me see that, apart from the occasional misstep, was doing well at my job and that my children were growing up in a loving home. I realized that what needed to change was not my work but my mentality. I reflected on how I wanted to behave as a scientist and a teacher. Was this career about accumulating the largest number of publications? Did I want to be a teacher who was just absorbed in his world? The answer to both questions was negative. The process of transformation didn’t unfold as smoothly as expected, particularly when it came to overcoming negative thoughts, which required a significant amount of time. Nonetheless, the positive changes I made proved to be highly beneficial. I’ve also summarized three specific points that enable me to realize my intentions while also furthering my research and career, building personal connection, sharing ideas freely and being a reliable and fun operator. I’ve seen how working with co-workers, with whom I have a personal connection unlocks creativity and Drives progress.Such connections don’t form overnight, but when I take the time to strengthen them by sharing news and personal conversations, I know the time is well spent. My productivity hasn’t suffered; if anything, my research has benefited from increased activity and engagement. 4. Why did the author feel tired and stressed? A. Because he was dissatisfied with himself. B. Because he couldn’t gain others’ recognition. C. Because he had tense relationships with his partners. D Because he failed to balance his career and home life. 5. What motivated the author to change his mentality? A. His talking with his friend. B. His realizing his failure. C. His reflecting on his behavior. D. His questioning his own ability. 6. How did the author find his transforming process? A. Boring but effective. B. Challenging but rewarding. C. Smooth and inspiring. D. Interesting and meaningful 7. What message does the author intend to convey in the last paragraph? A. Connections can be easy to form. B. Work habits determine productivity. C. Independent thinking is the key to success. D. Meaningful relationships contribute to careers. C Yatir is Israel’ s largest planted forest, located on the northwest edge of the Negev Desert. Four million trees, 90 percent of which are hardy Aleppo pine trees, spread over almost 12 square miles of semi-dry land. The trees are neither irrigated nor fertilized, yet somehow the forest has survived for almost 60 years. Yatir Forest proves we can prevent desertification, and heal the wounded earth.many locals said. But is it true? “Fifteen years’ measurements in Yatir do show that the forest takes up a surprising amount of carbon,” said Rafat Oubaja, a Palestinian researcher. In satellite pictures, Yatir Forest forms a huge dark mass in the desert, meaning it absorbs more solar radiation. As is shown in the research findings.the darker Yatir Forest absorbs more energy, turns it into heat, and releases it back into the atmosphere, and it may take more than 200 years for the forest to have a net cooling effect-if it survives that long. “Aleppo pine trees could grow rapidly on any kind of soil, but you don’t have to stick them in every place,” said Alon Rothschild, head of the Society for the Protection of Nature in Israel (SPNI) “Planting forests in naturally unforested open spaces, such as grasslands and shrublands, cause threats to native species, including endangered ground-nesting birds, which need open landscapes to dive for food. The heavy machinery used in tree planting can also damage fragile dry land soils, where insects, reptiles, and birds live.” “Aleppo pine trees are hardy but also short-lived. Twenty to thirty years from now, the origin pine trees will be dead or dying, and there is very little regeneration of the forest,” said Klein, who suggested planting other trees, especially acacia trees (金合欢树). Acacia trees can tolerate extremely due to their long roots. “Under future drying and warming situations,” Klein and his co-author noted, “thinly scattered woodlands consisting of deep-rooted acacia might survive climate change better than dense forests.” “I’ m sure that if no one touches the forest in 100 years, when you come to visit here, you’ ll sees one acacia trees standing,” Rotenberg said. “The forest won’t give up very easily.” 8. What does Yatir Forest mean to the locals? A. It helps them survive starvation. B. It has an uncertain future. C. ft brings hope for environmental recovery. D. It is quite a challenging process. 9. What can be known from researchers’ findings about Yatir Forest? A. It has been out of control. B. It fails to cool the earth at present. C. It absorbs much heat from the air. D. It’s expected to live over two centuries. 10. Which of the following may Alon Rothschild agree with? A. There should be room for grasslands and shrublands. B. The heavy machinery expands forest animals’ habitat. C. Trees should be planted in naturally unforested open spaces. D. The number of trees determines the quality of the environment. 11 How does Klein plan to guarantee the future of Yatir Forest? A. By applying fertilizer regularly. B. By improving irrigation techniques. C. By planting more adaptable tree species. D. By multiplying the diversity of animal species D Like many industries worldwide, Australia’s fruit-picking industry was impacted heavily during the COVID-19 pandemic, creating a shortage of workers in the labor market that would normally be filled by travelers looking to make money on the road. Local researchers came up with a partial solution to this problem, developing a fruit-picking robot that can harvest apples at a high speed. Robots have benefited the world of agriculture in various ways, from inspecting crops and raising sheep to searching fields and removing weeds. We’ re also starting to see how they’ re playing a role in’ food production, with robots already appearing that can pick certain small pieces of fruit and harvest certain vegetables, or even shape fruit trees to keep them healthy and free from disease. Researchers in Australia turned their attention to apples. The robot used a mix of cameras and deep learning algorithms (算法) to scan the trees in’ a field and detect the pieces of fruit, which required the robot to process information on their shape, the stem-branch joint’s location, etc. The robot collected apples with a specially designed soft “hand” with four fingers and a pneumatic sucking system (吸系统) that drew the apples from the branches into the “hand”. The “hand” could reduce damage to the fruit and the tree itself to the smallest extent. Its sucking system could reduce the need for the “hand” to reach into the branches, thus inhibiting potential damage to its surroundings. According to the research team, the robot could identify over 90 percent of apples within the view of its camera and a distance of around 1.2 m, And the machine could operate in all lighting and weather conditions, and required less than 200 milliseconds to process an apple’ s image. So far, there searchers have been conducting field trials, and they report the robot damaged less than 6 percent of its collected fruit. 12 What problem did Australia’s fruit industry face? A. A growing demand for fruit. B. The decreased output of the fruit. C. The rising cost of collecting fruit. D. A lack of fruit-collecting workers. 13. What can be concluded about robots from paragraph 2? A. They are made in a shape of a tree. B. They are widely applied in agriculture. C. They have strengths and also weaknesses. D. They are very efficient tools for harvesting crops. 14. Which word below can replace the underlined “inhibiting” in paragraph 4? A. Causing. B. Preventing. C. Forbidding. D. Hiding. 15. Which can be the best title for the text? A. Robots can Help Pick Apples B. Robots will Replace Workers C. Robots will Come to Market Soon D. Robots Can Pick Apples More Efficiently 第二节 (共5小题; 每小题 2.5分,满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Glitter (闪光纸屑) is widely used to decorate clothing, arts, and so on. During festivals and celebrations, it brings joy and excitement, creating a dazzling atmosphere that unites people in the celebration. ____16____ It is necessary to know why. The problem with glitter is that it is a microplastic that doesn’t break down naturally. ____17____ And it makes products that you may normally wish to recycle, such as wrapping paper, no longer recyclable. This is why the UK government has put out guidance on festive waste, reminding households not to put shiny or glittery Christmas cards or wrapping paper in recycling bags. Besides, due to its size, lots of plastic glitter will unavoidably make its way into water, rivers.and eventually the oceans. ___18___.This has been shown to significantly impact the reproduction rates of oysters and make other. animals less active, more likely to be eaten and less likely to thrive. ____19____ Increasing research shows glitter ends up back on our dinner tables. Aside from directly finding its way into our food from glittery cards and decorations, it’s consumed by fish, shellfish,seabirds and other marine life, thus passing through the food chain and eventually reaching us and harming our health. While restricting glitter is only an extremely small step in addressing the broader microplastic problem, the European Union has taken the lead in this. Leading UK retailers such as Morrisons should be praised for taking a stand and going completely glitter free. ____20____ But if we are to protect our planet, no step is too small. A. Marine life often mistakes it for food. B. The glitter you used a decade ago probably still exists. C. But it is now officially prohibited in the European Union. D. More and more people are paying attention to food safety E. It will take a long time to solve the problem of microplastics F. Banning glitter obviously won’t completely save the climate or animals. G. Glitter also contributes to the increasing microplastics inside human bodies. 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) In the town of Willowbrook, I was known as the ‘‘stranger” who kept to myself.

One autumn afternoon, the basketball team was preparing for the big championship in the gym.“Ley, Thomas! Why don’t you join the team? we could use someone smart like you to help wit strategy,” Jake called out to Thomas. Thomas, absorbed in textbooks at a nearby table, looked up, clearly annoyed. “Very funny, Jake I’m focused on my studies, not your games,” he answered sharply, “Besides, who needs strategy when you’ve got talent?” Jake laughed, not bothered by his response. “Talent only gets you so far, you know. You should try pushing your limits instead of hiding behind those books.” As time went by, Thomas’s goal to keep his top grades began to weigh heavily on him. One night, he stayed up late studying, but soon felt too tired to continue. He suddenly found himself questioning if he was giving up too much just for good grades. Meanwhile, Jake had his own stress. His team relied on him, but he felt the burden of expectations. Lying in bed, he thought about the championship game and his fear of letting everyone down. “What if l mess up?” His stomach tightened with worry. Finally, the big day came. The gym was packed with students, all excited for the game. Thomas sat in the stand, his heart racing — not just from the game, but from his inner struggle. He had promised himself he wouldn’t let his grades slip, yet part of him longed to experience the excitement of supporting the team. At first, Jake played well, but in the fourth quarter, his team was behind by ten points. He took a three-point shot that missed. In that moment, he felt the weight of the world on his shoulders. “What’s wrong with me?” he whispered to himself. 注意: 1.续写词数应为 150左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Thomas noticed Jake’s struggle and felt an urge to help. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ In the final seconds, Jake had the ball, and the score was tied. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力1-5 BAACB 6-10 ABACA 11-15 CCBBA 16-20 BABCC 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
