France’s largest fish tank supplier announces that they will no longer sell small fish tanks
The big French pet care company AgroBiothers Laboratoire will no longer sell very small containers for raising fish.
The company has a 27 percent share of the French market for products used by people who raise animals at home. But it said it would no longer sell any aquariums that hold less than 15 liters of water. They will only offer rectangular ones.
The company said it was animal abuse to put fish in small bowls without added oxygen and filtration. Filtration is the process of removing small particles or waste from the water with a device.
AgroBiothers chief Matthieu Lambeaux recently spoke to the Reuters news agency. He used the term impulse— meaning a sudden strong desire to do something —to describe why many adults buy goldfish.
“People buy a goldfish for their kids on impulse,” he said. Lambeaux added, “but if they knew what a torture it is, they would not do it. Turning round and round in a small bowl drives fish crazy and kills them quickly.”
Gold fish can live up to 30 years and grow to about 25 cm in large aquariums or outdoor ponds. But in very small bowls they often die within weeks or months.
Lambeaux said gold fish are social animals that need other fish, lots of space and clean water. He added that having an aquarium requires some special equipment and knowledge.
France is Europe’s number one market for red aquarium fish, with about 2.3 million fish, Lambeaux said.
In earlier years, AgroBiothers sold about 50,000 fish bowls per year at about 20 euros each.
Germany and several other European countries have long banned fish bowls, but France has no laws on the issue.
Lambeaux believes the use of fish bowls to be an anachronism – something that seems to belong to the past.
He explained the company’s decision further by saying, “We cannot educate all our customers to explain that keeping fish in a bowl is cruel. We consider that it is our responsibility to no longer give consumers that choice.”
Lambeaux suggested that the reality of fishbowls is sad.
“There is demand for fish bowls,” he said, “but the reality is that what we offer children is the possibility to see gold fish die slowly.”

法国最大鱼缸供应商宣布不再销售小鱼缸
法国大型宠物护理公司AgroBiothers Laboratoire将不再出售用于养鱼的非常小的容器。
该公司在法国市场上拥有27%的份额,这些产品是由在家饲养动物的人使用的。但它说它将不再出售任何容纳15升以下水的水族箱。他们将只提供长方形的。
该公司说,把鱼放在没有添加氧气和过滤的小缸里是虐待动物。过滤是指用一种装置从水中去除小颗粒或废物的过程。
AgroBiothers的负责人马蒂厄-兰波最近接受了路透社的采访。他用冲动这个词——意思是突然想做某事的强烈愿望——来描述许多成年人购买金鱼的原因。
他说:“人们在冲动之下为他们的孩子买一条金鱼。”兰波补充说,“但如果他们知道这是一种怎样的折磨,他们就不会这么做了。在一个小缸里转来转去,会让鱼发疯,并迅速杀死它们。”
金鱼的寿命可达30年,在大型水族馆或室外池塘中可长到25厘米左右。但在非常小的缸里,它们往往在几周或几个月内死亡。
兰波说,金鱼是社会性动物,需要其他鱼类、大量空间和干净的水。他补充说,拥有一个水族箱需要一些特殊的设备和知识。
兰波说,法国是欧洲最大的红色观赏鱼市场,大约有230万条。
在早些年,AgroBiothers公司每年销售约5万个鱼缸,每个约20欧元。
德国和其他几个欧洲国家早已禁止使用鱼缸,但法国在这个问题上没有法律。
兰波认为,使用鱼缸是一种不合时宜的做法--似乎属于过去的东西。
他进一步解释公司的决定说:“我们不能教育我们所有的客户,解释在缸里养鱼是残忍的。我们认为,不再给消费者提供这种选择是我们的责任。”
兰波提出,鱼缸的现实是可悲的。
“对鱼缸的需求仍然存在,”他说,“但现实是,我们给孩子的是看到金鱼可能会慢慢死去。”

完形填空考查学生的阅读理解能力和基础词汇运用能力
,
所以完形填空训练目的有两个:
一是熟悉英文的表达方式,提高理解能力;
二是积累出现的生词。 答题步骤:文章读两遍,做题不一定要按照先后顺序。先读1遍全文了解大概内容,不急于下结论,然后在读第2遍时,仔细分析确定最终选项。
分析思路:局部判断、整体判断、主题判断。
局部判断
——根据填空位置的上下文的一致性、段落主旨、固定搭配的词语等来进行判断。
整体判断
——根据全篇内容的一致性进行判断,需要读完全文后才能决定。很可能第1题的线索在最后一段才出现。
主题判断
——根据全文主题进行判断,选择一个最适合文章主题选项。可这样想“如果我写这篇文章,想要突出这个主题,想要达到写作目的,我会用哪个词最好?”

(24-25高三上·辽宁丹东·期末)A Glimpse of China’s Wonders Through Foreign Eyes
Alice: The Great Wall—A Testament to Human Ingenuity
As an American history enthusiast, the first thing that comes to mind when I think of China is the Great Wall. It’s not just a wall; it’s a symbol of architectural brilliance. Stretching over 13,000 miles, it’s a great wonder that has withstood the test of time. The view from the wall is breathtaking, with the mountains rolling out beneath you like a vast, ancient sea. It’s a place where you can almost hear the echoes of history, and it never fails to inspire awe.
Ben: The Terracotta Army—A Glimpse into Imperial China
From a British archaeologist’s viewpoint, the Terracotta Army in Xi’an is a treasure trove of historical insight. The life-sized soldiers, horses and chariots are an impressive display of the first emperor’s power and the detail-oriented craftsmanship of ancient Chinese artisans. Each figure is unique, with distinct facial expressions and attire, offering a window into the grandeur of the Qin Dynasty. It’s a place that makes you feel like you’ve stepped back in time.
Dylan: The Li River—A Painter’s Paradise
As a French artist, the Li River in Guilin captivates me with its graceful beauty. The river winds through limestone karsts, creating a landscape that seems to have been from a Chinese painting. The reflections of the mountains on the calm water’s surface are fascinating. It’s a place that inspires quietness and creativity, a perfect spot to set up a painting stand and capture the essence of China’s natural beauty.
Clara: The Giant Pandas—A Conservation Success Story
From an Australian conservationist’s perspective, the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding is a beacon (灯塔)of hope. The sight of these gentle giants in their semi-wild enclosures is heartwarming. It’s incredible to see the efforts made to protect and breed these adorable creatures, which are not only a symbol of China but also a testament to global conservation efforts. It’s a place that reminds us of our shared responsibility to protect our planet’s biodiversity.
1.What do both Alice and Ben want to convey?
A.A sense of wonder and respect for history. B.Admiration for ancient artisans.

(24-25高二上·青海西宁·期末)How would you like to spend six months living on an island and looking after the Great Barrier Reef? The working hours are flexible and accommodation is provided. Key duties include exploring the islands of the reef and finding out what the area has to offer. You’ll need to report back via weekly blogs, photo diaries and video updates. You’ll also be asked to promote the islands through newspapers, magazines and TV interviews.
This call for an island caretaker attracted interest from all over the world. It was actually a very clever means to highlight the importance of the Great Barrier Reef and the need to protect it.
Located off the coast of North-east Australia, the Great Barrier Reef is the largest living thing on the planet. About the size of Japan, it even can be seen from outer space. More than25 million years old, the Great Barrier Reef is made up of living coral growing on dead coral. It is host to many species of birds and sea creatures. But this unique and delicate place is now under threat from pollution and climate change.
Eventually, the job was offered to Ben Southall from the UK. Ben did a lot during his time as an island caretaker. In addition to blogging, taking photos and writing articles about the reef, he made a number of appearances on television to argue in favour of its defence. He also worked as a presenter for the National Geographic Channel, before going on to write a book about his experiences. Ben later joked that the job should have been advertised not as the “best”, but the “busiest job in the world”!
Whether it was a genuine job offer or an eye-catching marketing event isn’t really important. The most important thing was that people all over the world became aware of the beauty of the ocean in the area. What’s more, they came to understand the delicate balance that the environment exists in and what can, and must, be done to protect the reef. That way, it will remain a safe habitat for wildlife, as well as a dream destination for the millions of tourists who visit it each year.
1.What is paragraph 1?
A.A weekly blog. B.An advertisement.
C.A website. D.A short story.
2.What’s the deep purpose of the call for a caretaker?
A.To protect the Great Barrier Reef. B.To build the Great Barrier Reef more beautifully.
C.To provide an educational program on marine life. D.To attract more tourists to travel in Australia.
3.What problem was the Great Barrier Reef faced with?
A.Lack of tourists. B.Natural disaster.
C.Pollution and climate change. D.Disappearing of the islands.
4.What is the text mainly about?
A.The best job in the world. B.An English island caretaker—— Ben Southall.
C.Why the Great Barrier Reef is under threat. D.How to take care of the Great Barrier Reef.
【答案】1.B 2.A 3.C 4.A
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一个通过招聘岛屿管理员的活动来提高全球对大堡礁保护意识的营销策略。

(2025·山东·一模)The U.N. weather agency is sounding a “red alert” about global warming, citing record-smashing increases last year in greenhouse gases, land and water temperatures and melting of glaciers and sea ice, and is warning that the world’s efforts to completely change the trend have been inadequate. The World Meteorological Organization said there is a high probability that 2024 will be another record-hot year.
The 12-month period from March 2023 to February 2024 pushed beyond that 1.5-degree limit, averaging 1.56℃(2.81°F)higher, according to the European Union’s Copernicus Climate Change Service. It said the calendar year 2023 was just below 1.5℃ at 1.48℃(2.66℉), but a record hot start to this year pushed beyond that level for the 12-month average.
The latest WMO findings are especially severe when put together in a single report. In 2023, over 90% of ocean waters experienced heat wave conditions at least once. Glaciers monitored since 1950 lost the most ice on record. Antarctic sea ice retreated to its lowest level ever. The impact of heat waves, floods, droughts, wildfires and tropical cyclones(旋风), worsened by climate change, was felt in livelihoods on every continent in 2023.
The report comes as climate experts and government ministers are to gather in the Danish capital, Copenhagen on Thursday and Friday to press for greater action, including increased national commitments to fight global warming.
“Each year the climate story gets worse; each year WMO officials and others announce that the latest report is a wake-up call to decision makers,” said University of Victoria climate scientist Andrew Weaver, a former British Columbia lawmaker. “Yet each year, once the 24-hour news cycle is over, far too many of our elected ‘leaders’ return to partisan bickering(党派争论)and advancing policies with demonstrable short-term outcomes,” he said. “More often than not everything else ends up taking priority over the advancement of climate policy. And so, nothing gets done.”
1.What’s the purpose of the text?
A.Presenting the findings of WMO. B.Reporting another record-hot year.
C.Warning of the coming natural disaster. D.Analyzing the cause of climate change.
2.Why does the author mention the data in paragraph 2?
A.To indicate the red alert. B.To make a comparison.
C.To explain 1.5-degree limit. D.To present a reality.
3.What does the underlined phrase “press for” mean?
A.Push for. B.Search for.
C.Struggle for. D.Prepare for.
4.What can be inferred from Andrew Weaver’s words?
A.The elected leaders attach great importance to global warming.
B.He persuades the elected leaders to make climate policy.
C.The elected leaders don’t take climate policy seriously.
D.A great breakthrough has made with joint efforts.

And so, nothing gets done.”(维多利亚大学气候科学家、前不列颠哥伦比亚省立法者安德鲁·韦弗(Andrew Weaver)表示:“每年气候情况都变得更糟;每年世界气象组织(WMO)的官员和其他人士都会宣布,最新的报告是对决策者们的一记警钟。然而,每年一旦24小时的新闻周期结束,我们太多民选的‘领导人’就回到党派争论和推行有明显短期效果的政策上。更多的时候,其他所有事情的优先级都高于推进气候政策。因此,什么也做不成。”)”可知,本文主要介绍了联合国气象机构关于全球变暖的“红色警报”,指出去年的相关数据创历史新高,且世界在改变这一趋势方面的努力不足,可推理出本文的目的是报道另一创纪录的高温年,故选B项。
2.推理判断题。根据第二段“The 12-month period from March 2023 to February 2024 pushed beyond that 1.5-degree limit, averaging 1.56℃(2.81°F)higher, according to the European Union’s Copernicus Climate Change Service. It said the calendar year 2023 was just below 1.5℃ at 1.48℃(2.66℉), but a record hot start to this year pushed beyond that level for the 12-month average (欧盟哥白尼气候变化服务局表示,从2023年3月到2024年2月的12个月期间,气温超过了1.5摄氏度的限制,平均气温高出1.56摄氏度(2.81华氏度)。该机构称,2023年全年的平均气温为1.48摄氏度(2.66华氏度),略低于1.5摄氏度,但今年创纪录的高温开局将12个月的平均水平推高到了这一水平之上)”可知,该段具体阐述了2023年3月至2024年2月这12个月的平均气温以及2023年全年的平均气温,这些数据都是为了支撑第一段中提到的联合国气象机构的“红色警报”,即表明全球变暖的严峻形势,发出红色警报,故选A项。
3.词义猜测题。根据第四段“The report comes as climate experts and government ministers are to gather in the Danish capital, Copenhagen on Thursday and Friday to … greater action, including increased national commitments to fight global warming(这份报告发布之际,气候专家和政府部长们将于周四和周五齐聚丹麦首都哥本哈根,……采取更有力的行动,包括加大各国对抗全球变暖的承诺)”可知,气候专家和政府部长们将于周四和周五在丹麦首都哥本哈根举行会议,目的是推动采取更有力的行动,包括加大对应对全球变暖的国家承诺。可推理出“press for”在此处表示“推动,力争”,与“Push for”意思相近,故选A项。
4.推理判断题。根据第五段“Yet each year, once the 24-hour news cycle is over, far too many of our elected ‘leaders’ return to partisan bickering(党派争论)and advancing policies with demonstrable short-term outcomes (然而,每年一旦24小时的新闻周期结束,我们太多民选的“领导人”便回到党派纷争中,去推行那些有明显短期效果的政策)”可知,每年一旦24小时的新闻周期结束,太多的当选“领导人”又回到党派争论中,推行那些明显具有短期效果的政策,由此可推断出,当选的领导人并没有认真对待气候政策,故选C项。

(2025·安徽马鞍山·一模)Making fabric from waste potato plants could offer a more sustainable alternative to pure cotton, as pressure grows on the fashion industry to reduce its environmental impact.
Potatoes pose a headache for farmers. The tubers (块茎) are harvested and eaten, but the above-ground plant contains solanine, which is poisonous, so it can’t be used for animal feed. Farmers usually remove this matter before potatoes are harvested.
Now, a UK startup company, Fibe, wants to avoid this waste by extracting (提取) fibres from potato stems (茎) to make a sustainable fabric. In April, it introduced the world’s first potato thread (线), a mixture of 75 per cent cotton and 25 per cent potato fibres.
The approach began as a project by a group of design engineering students, including Gal-Shohet, at Imperial College London. Tasked with designing a sustainable business concept, the group investigated using waste plants to create a more sustainable alternative to cotton. The students chose potato plants because they are mass-produced all over the world, are rich in fibres and their leaves have no other practical use. They turned their idea into a business after graduating in 2022.
Fibe primarily uses non-biological process to extract the fibres. “Once raw fibres are extracted, they are cleaned and graded to produce soft balls. The potato fibres are similar in quality to cotton,” says Gal-Shohet. However, because the land is already being used to grow potatoes, potato fibres require 99.7 per cent less water and produce 82 per cent fewer carbon emissions (排放), as well as needing no additional land, according to Fibe’s internal analysis.
Muhammad Tausif at the University of Leeds, UK, who has worked with Fibe, says industry demand for sustainable fibres is growing, but the company will need to prove its potato fibres have the“length, fineness and strength” to compete with cotton. “For a fibre to be successful and to be made into a product, these are the key factors,” he says.
1.What do the underlined words “this matter” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A.Pure cotton. B.The poisonous tuber.
C.Animal feed. D.The above-ground plant.
2.What does the author intend to do in paragraph 4?
A.Summarize the previous paragraphs. B.Add some background information.
C.Provide some advice for the students. D.Introduce a new topic for discussion.
3.What does Fibe’s internal analysis highlight about using potato fibres?
A.Its standard requirements. B.Its environmental advantages.
C.Its technical barriers. D.Its wide applications.
4.What does Tausif expect of Fibe?
A.It should demonstrate its fibres’competitive qualities.
B.It should secure business partners as soon as possible.
C.It should make a big difference to the fibre industry.
D.It should launch appealing products into the market.
【答案】1.D 2.B 3.B 4.A
【导语】这是篇说明文。文章介绍了一家英国初创公司Fibe试图通过从土豆茎中提取纤维来制造可持续面料以减少时尚行业的环境影响。
1.词句猜测题。根据文章第二段“The tubers (块茎) are harvested and eaten, but the above-ground plant contains solanine, which is poisonous, so it can’t be used for animal feed. Farmers usually remove this matter before potatoes are harvested.(块茎被收获并食用,但地上部分的植物含有毒性生物碱,所以不能用作动物饲料。农民通常在土豆收获之前去除这些物质)”可知,农民通常在土豆收获之前去除地上部分的植物。所以“this matter”指的是“地上的植物”。故选D。
2.推理判断题。根据第四段中的“The approach began as a project by a group of design engineering students, including Gal-Shohet, at Imperial College London. Tasked with designing a sustainable business concept, the group investigated using waste plants to create a more sustainable alternative to cotton. The students chose potato plants because they are mass-produced all over the world, are rich in fibres and their leaves have no other practical use. They turned their idea into a business after graduating in 2022.(这种方法最初是伦敦帝国理工学院的一群设计工程专业学生(包括Gal-Shohet)的一个项目。该小组的任务是设计一个可持续的商业概念,他们研究了利用废物处理厂来创造一种更可持续的棉花替代品。学生们之所以选择马铃薯植物,是因为它们在世界各地大量生产,富含纤维,而且它们的叶子没有其他实际用途。他们在2022年毕业后把自己的想法变成了生意。)”可推知,作者在第四段是为了增加一些背景信息。故选B。
3.细节理解题。根据文章第五段“However, because the land is already being used to grow potatoes, potato fibres require 99.7 per cent less water and produce 82 per cent fewer carbon emissions (然而,因为土地已经用于种植土豆,所以土豆纤维需要的水比正常种植使用少99.7%,且产生的碳排放量减少了82%)”可知,分析结果突出了使用土豆纤维的环境优势。故选B。
4.推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中“Muhammad Tausif at the University of Leeds, UK, who has worked with Fibe, says industry demand for sustainable fibres is growing, but the company will need to prove its potato fibres have the“length, fineness and strength” to compete with cotton. (英国利兹大学(University of Leeds)的穆罕默德•陶西夫(Muhammad Tausif)曾与纤维公司合作,他表示,行业对可持续纤维的需求正在增长,但该公司需要证明其马铃薯纤维具有“长度、细度和强度”,可以与棉花竞争)”可知,Tausif期望Fibe能够展示其纤维的竞争质量。故选A。

(24-25高三上·山东泰安·期末)Life on Earth couldn’t exist without oceans. 1 World Oceans Day is a time to enhance understanding of oceans and why we must change the bad situation.
World Oceans Day
Did you know that 71 percent of our planet is covered in ocean? 2 People around the world wear blue to celebrate World Oceans Day on 8 June every year, which is aimed at knowing why oceans are in danger and how essential it is to protect them.
Why we need oceans
Evidently, without oceans, life couldn’t exist. Scientists don’t know the exact number, but they think that oceans are home to 50 to 80 per cent of all species on Earth. Oceans hold about 97 percent of all the water on our planet and give us rainwater and drinking water through the water cycle. 3
How we use oceans
Humans use the ocean in diverse ways. A lot of our food comes from oceans, and millions of people worldwide have jobs related to fishing and fish farming. 4 We’ve been getting oil and gas from beneath the ocean floor for a long time, but now we are aware renewable energy is eco-friendly for the future. We can use the power of waves and tides to produce electricity, and many wind farms are located offshore.
What we can do to help
For World Oceans Day you could join in a beach clean-up to help prevent plastic and other rubbish getting into the sea. You could employ social media platforms to share posts, photos or videos to show how crucial oceans are. You could participate in a writing contest around the theme of the ocean or watch ocean-related documentaries. 5 So, take action instantly.
A.Thus, it is vital to explore them.
B.However, our oceans are in danger.
C.Besides, fossil energy is running out.
D.That’s why we call the Earth the “Blue Planet”.
E.Oceans also provide us with much of our energy.
F.Anyway, your efforts count remarkably in terms of protecting oceans.
G.Additionally, much oxygen we breathe comes from the plants in the ocean.

Reduce White Pollution in Daily Life
White pollution is still a very serious environmental issue, which has done great harm to our environment and our health.
To our delight, our government has taken a series of measures to address white pollution. For example, a ban on offering plastic bags to customers has been implemented by our government to restrict the use of plastic bags. Besides, restaurants are not allowed to use nondegradable lunch boxes. These measures have helped tackle white pollution.
Therefore, we should do our part to help cope with white pollution. As for the local authorities, they should use more social media to spread the environmental awareness and encourage greater use of recyclable bags and boxes to replace plastic ones.

时文拓展阅读
France’s largest fish tank supplier announces that they will no longer sell small fish tanks
The big French pet care company AgroBiothers Laboratoire will no longer sell very small containers for raising fish.
The company has a 27 percent share of the French market for products used by people who raise animals at home. But it said it would no longer sell any aquariums that hold less than 15 liters of water. They will only offer rectangular ones.
The company said it was animal abuse to put fish in small bowls without added oxygen and filtration. Filtration is the process of removing small particles or waste from the water with a device.
AgroBiothers chief Matthieu Lambeaux recently spoke to the Reuters news agency. He used the term impulse— meaning a sudden strong desire to do something —to describe why many adults buy goldfish.
“People buy a goldfish for their kids on impulse,” he said. Lambeaux added, “but if they knew what a torture it is, they would not do it. Turning round and round in a small bowl drives fish crazy and kills them quickly.”
Gold fish can live up to 30 years and grow to about 25 cm in large aquariums or outdoor ponds. But in very small bowls they often die within weeks or months.
Lambeaux said gold fish are social animals that need other fish, lots of space and clean water. He added that having an aquarium requires some special equipment and knowledge.
France is Europe’s number one market for red aquarium fish, with about 2.3 million fish, Lambeaux said.
In earlier years, AgroBiothers sold about 50,000 fish bowls per year at about 20 euros each.
Germany and several other European countries have long banned fish bowls, but France has no laws on the issue.
Lambeaux believes the use of fish bowls to be an anachronism – something that seems to belong to the past.
He explained the company’s decision further by saying, “We cannot educate all our customers to explain that keeping fish in a bowl is cruel. We consider that it is our responsibility to no longer give consumers that choice.”
Lambeaux suggested that the reality of fishbowls is sad.
“There is demand for fish bowls,” he said, “but the reality is that what we offer children is the possibility to see gold fish die slowly.”

法国最大鱼缸供应商宣布不再销售小鱼缸
法国大型宠物护理公司AgroBiothers Laboratoire将不再出售用于养鱼的非常小的容器。
该公司在法国市场上拥有27%的份额,这些产品是由在家饲养动物的人使用的。但它说它将不再出售任何容纳15升以下水的水族箱。他们将只提供长方形的。
该公司说,把鱼放在没有添加氧气和过滤的小缸里是虐待动物。过滤是指用一种装置从水中去除小颗粒或废物的过程。
AgroBiothers的负责人马蒂厄-兰波最近接受了路透社的采访。他用冲动这个词——意思是突然想做某事的强烈愿望——来描述许多成年人购买金鱼的原因。
他说:“人们在冲动之下为他们的孩子买一条金鱼。”兰波补充说,“但如果他们知道这是一种怎样的折磨,他们就不会这么做了。在一个小缸里转来转去,会让鱼发疯,并迅速杀死它们。”
金鱼的寿命可达30年,在大型水族馆或室外池塘中可长到25厘米左右。但在非常小的缸里,它们往往在几周或几个月内死亡。
兰波说,金鱼是社会性动物,需要其他鱼类、大量空间和干净的水。他补充说,拥有一个水族箱需要一些特殊的设备和知识。
兰波说,法国是欧洲最大的红色观赏鱼市场,大约有230万条。
在早些年,AgroBiothers公司每年销售约5万个鱼缸,每个约20欧元。
德国和其他几个欧洲国家早已禁止使用鱼缸,但法国在这个问题上没有法律。
兰波认为,使用鱼缸是一种不合时宜的做法--似乎属于过去的东西。
他进一步解释公司的决定说:“我们不能教育我们所有的客户,解释在缸里养鱼是残忍的。我们认为,不再给消费者提供这种选择是我们的责任。”
兰波提出,鱼缸的现实是可悲的。
“对鱼缸的需求仍然存在,”他说,“但现实是,我们给孩子的是看到金鱼可能会慢慢死去。”

完形填空考查学生的阅读理解能力和基础词汇运用能力
,
所以完形填空训练目的有两个:
一是熟悉英文的表达方式,提高理解能力;
二是积累出现的生词。 答题步骤:文章读两遍,做题不一定要按照先后顺序。先读1遍全文了解大概内容,不急于下结论,然后在读第2遍时,仔细分析确定最终选项。
分析思路:局部判断、整体判断、主题判断。
局部判断
——根据填空位置的上下文的一致性、段落主旨、固定搭配的词语等来进行判断。
整体判断
——根据全篇内容的一致性进行判断,需要读完全文后才能决定。很可能第1题的线索在最后一段才出现。
主题判断
——根据全文主题进行判断,选择一个最适合文章主题选项。可这样想“如果我写这篇文章,想要突出这个主题,想要达到写作目的,我会用哪个词最好?”

(24-25高三上·辽宁丹东·期末)A Glimpse of China’s Wonders Through Foreign Eyes
Alice: The Great Wall—A Testament to Human Ingenuity
As an American history enthusiast, the first thing that comes to mind when I think of China is the Great Wall. It’s not just a wall; it’s a symbol of architectural brilliance. Stretching over 13,000 miles, it’s a great wonder that has withstood the test of time. The view from the wall is breathtaking, with the mountains rolling out beneath you like a vast, ancient sea. It’s a place where you can almost hear the echoes of history, and it never fails to inspire awe.
Ben: The Terracotta Army—A Glimpse into Imperial China
From a British archaeologist’s viewpoint, the Terracotta Army in Xi’an is a treasure trove of historical insight. The life-sized soldiers, horses and chariots are an impressive display of the first emperor’s power and the detail-oriented craftsmanship of ancient Chinese artisans. Each figure is unique, with distinct facial expressions and attire, offering a window into the grandeur of the Qin Dynasty. It’s a place that makes you feel like you’ve stepped back in time.
Dylan: The Li River—A Painter’s Paradise
As a French artist, the Li River in Guilin captivates me with its graceful beauty. The river winds through limestone karsts, creating a landscape that seems to have been from a Chinese painting. The reflections of the mountains on the calm water’s surface are fascinating. It’s a place that inspires quietness and creativity, a perfect spot to set up a painting stand and capture the essence of China’s natural beauty.

(24-25高二上·青海西宁·期末)How would you like to spend six months living on an island and looking after the Great Barrier Reef? The working hours are flexible and accommodation is provided. Key duties include exploring the islands of the reef and finding out what the area has to offer. You’ll need to report back via weekly blogs, photo diaries and video updates. You’ll also be asked to promote the islands through newspapers, magazines and TV interviews.
This call for an island caretaker attracted interest from all over the world. It was actually a very clever means to highlight the importance of the Great Barrier Reef and the need to protect it.
Located off the coast of North-east Australia, the Great Barrier Reef is the largest living thing on the planet. About the size of Japan, it even can be seen from outer space. More than25 million years old, the Great Barrier Reef is made up of living coral growing on dead coral. It is host to many species of birds and sea creatures. But this unique and delicate place is now under threat from pollution and climate change.
Eventually, the job was offered to Ben Southall from the UK. Ben did a lot during his time as an island caretaker. In addition to blogging, taking photos and writing articles about the reef, he made a number of appearances on television to argue in favour of its defence. He also worked as a presenter for the National Geographic Channel, before going on to write a book about his experiences. Ben later joked that the job should have been advertised not as the “best”, but the “busiest job in the world”!
Whether it was a genuine job offer or an eye-catching marketing event isn’t really important. The most important thing was that people all over the world became aware of the beauty of the ocean in the area. What’s more, they came to understand the delicate balance that the environment exists in and what can, and must, be done to protect the reef. That way, it will remain a safe habitat for wildlife, as well as a dream destination for the millions of tourists who visit it each year.
1.What is paragraph 1?
A.A weekly blog. B.An advertisement.
C.A website. D.A short story.
2.What’s the deep purpose of the call for a caretaker?
A.To protect the Great Barrier Reef. B.To build the Great Barrier Reef more beautifully.
C.To provide an educational program on marine life. D.To attract more tourists to travel in Australia.
3.What problem was the Great Barrier Reef faced with?
A.Lack of tourists. B.Natural disaster.
C.Pollution and climate change. D.Disappearing of the islands.
4.What is the text mainly about?
A.The best job in the world. B.An English island caretaker—— Ben Southall.
C.Why the Great Barrier Reef is under threat. D.How to take care of the Great Barrier Reef.

(2025·山东·一模)The U.N. weather agency is sounding a “red alert” about global warming, citing record-smashing increases last year in greenhouse gases, land and water temperatures and melting of glaciers and sea ice, and is warning that the world’s efforts to completely change the trend have been inadequate. The World Meteorological Organization said there is a high probability that 2024 will be another record-hot year.
The 12-month period from March 2023 to February 2024 pushed beyond that 1.5-degree limit, averaging 1.56℃(2.81°F)higher, according to the European Union’s Copernicus Climate Change Service. It said the calendar year 2023 was just below 1.5℃ at 1.48℃(2.66℉), but a record hot start to this year pushed beyond that level for the 12-month average.
The latest WMO findings are especially severe when put together in a single report. In 2023, over 90% of ocean waters experienced heat wave conditions at least once. Glaciers monitored since 1950 lost the most ice on record. Antarctic sea ice retreated to its lowest level ever. The impact of heat waves, floods, droughts, wildfires and tropical cyclones(旋风), worsened by climate change, was felt in livelihoods on every continent in 2023.
The report comes as climate experts and government ministers are to gather in the Danish capital, Copenhagen on Thursday and Friday to press for greater action, including increased national commitments to fight global warming.
“Each year the climate story gets worse; each year WMO officials and others announce that the latest report is a wake-up call to decision makers,” said University of Victoria climate scientist Andrew Weaver, a former British Columbia lawmaker. “Yet each year, once the 24-hour news cycle is over, far too many of our elected ‘leaders’ return to partisan bickering(党派争论)and advancing policies with demonstrable short-term outcomes,” he said. “More often than not everything else ends up taking priority over the advancement of climate policy. And so, nothing gets done.”
1.What’s the purpose of the text?
A.Presenting the findings of WMO. B.Reporting another record-hot year.
C.Warning of the coming natural disaster. D.Analyzing the cause of climate change.
2.Why does the author mention the data in paragraph 2?
A.To indicate the red alert. B.To make a comparison.
C.To explain 1.5-degree limit. D.To present a reality.
3.What does the underlined phrase “press for” mean?
A.Push for. B.Search for.
C.Struggle for. D.Prepare for.
4.What can be inferred from Andrew Weaver’s words?
A.The elected leaders attach great importance to global warming.
B.He persuades the elected leaders to make climate policy.
C.The elected leaders don’t take climate policy seriously.
D.A great breakthrough has made with joint efforts.

(2025·安徽马鞍山·一模)Making fabric from waste potato plants could offer a more sustainable alternative to pure cotton, as pressure grows on the fashion industry to reduce its environmental impact.
Potatoes pose a headache for farmers. The tubers (块茎) are harvested and eaten, but the above-ground plant contains solanine, which is poisonous, so it can’t be used for animal feed. Farmers usually remove this matter before potatoes are harvested.
Now, a UK startup company, Fibe, wants to avoid this waste by extracting (提取) fibres from potato stems (茎) to make a sustainable fabric. In April, it introduced the world’s first potato thread (线), a mixture of 75 per cent cotton and 25 per cent potato fibres.
The approach began as a project by a group of design engineering students, including Gal-Shohet, at Imperial College London. Tasked with designing a sustainable business concept, the group investigated using waste plants to create a more sustainable alternative to cotton. The students chose potato plants because they are mass-produced all over the world, are rich in fibres and their leaves have no other practical use. They turned their idea into a business after graduating in 2022.
Fibe primarily uses non-biological process to extract the fibres. “Once raw fibres are extracted, they are cleaned and graded to produce soft balls. The potato fibres are similar in quality to cotton,” says Gal-Shohet. However, because the land is already being used to grow potatoes, potato fibres require 99.7 per cent less water and produce 82 per cent fewer carbon emissions (排放), as well as needing no additional land, according to Fibe’s internal analysis.
Muhammad Tausif at the University of Leeds, UK, who has worked with Fibe, says industry demand for sustainable fibres is growing, but the company will need to prove its potato fibres have the“length, fineness and strength” to compete with cotton. “For a fibre to be successful and to be made into a product, these are the key factors,” he says.
1.What do the underlined words “this matter” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A.Pure cotton. B.The poisonous tuber.
C.Animal feed. D.The above-ground plant.
2.What does the author intend to do in paragraph 4?
A.Summarize the previous paragraphs. B.Add some background information.
C.Provide some advice for the students. D.Introduce a new topic for discussion.
3.What does Fibe’s internal analysis highlight about using potato fibres?
A.Its standard requirements. B.Its environmental advantages.
C.Its technical barriers. D.Its wide applications.
4.What does Tausif expect of Fibe?
A.It should demonstrate its fibres’competitive qualities.
B.It should secure business partners as soon as possible.
C.It should make a big difference to the fibre industry.
D.It should launch appealing products into the market.

(24-25高三上·山东泰安·期末)Life on Earth couldn’t exist without oceans. 1 World Oceans Day is a time to enhance understanding of oceans and why we must change the bad situation.
World Oceans Day
Did you know that 71 percent of our planet is covered in ocean? 2 People around the world wear blue to celebrate World Oceans Day on 8 June every year, which is aimed at knowing why oceans are in danger and how essential it is to protect them.
Why we need oceans
Evidently, without oceans, life couldn’t exist. Scientists don’t know the exact number, but they think that oceans are home to 50 to 80 per cent of all species on Earth. Oceans hold about 97 percent of all the water on our planet and give us rainwater and drinking water through the water cycle. 3
How we use oceans
Humans use the ocean in diverse ways. A lot of our food comes from oceans, and millions of people worldwide have jobs related to fishing and fish farming. 4 We’ve been getting oil and gas from beneath the ocean floor for a long time, but now we are aware renewable energy is eco-friendly for the future. We can use the power of waves and tides to produce electricity, and many wind farms are located offshore.
What we can do to help
For World Oceans Day you could join in a beach clean-up to help prevent plastic and other rubbish getting into the sea. You could employ social media platforms to share posts, photos or videos to show how crucial oceans are. You could participate in a writing contest around the theme of the ocean or watch ocean-related documentaries. 5 So, take action instantly.
A.Thus, it is vital to explore them.
B.However, our oceans are in danger.
C.Besides, fossil energy is running out.
D.That’s why we call the Earth the “Blue Planet”.
E.Oceans also provide us with much of our energy.
F.Anyway, your efforts count remarkably in terms of protecting oceans.
G.Additionally, much oxygen we breathe comes from the plants in the ocean.
