The Natural History Museum in London holds a yearly contest for the Wildlife Photographer of the Year. There’s a separate contest for people aged 10 and under,11-14,and 15-17, known as the“Young Wildlife Photographer of the Year”. Here are some of this year’s best winning pictures.
Free as a Bird by Alberto Román Gómez, Spain
Alberto Román Gómez snapped this picture of a young stonechat (野翁鸟) sitting on a gate hunting for insects. The judges liked how Alberto captured the bird’s wild nature while showing it in a human setting.
An Evening Meal by Parham Pourahmad, USA
Parham Pourahmad shot this picture of a Cooper’s eagle eating a squirrel (松鼠) that it has caught. The judges were impressed with the way Parham Pourahmad framed the picture, and the way the sunlight lit the scene.
Life Under Dead Wood by Alexis Tinker-Tsavalas, Germany
Alexis Tinker-Tsavalas created this image of a springtail(弹尾虫)next to the“fruiting body” of a mushroom. Alexis had to be quick, since the springtail could jump at any moment. Still, he managed to take 36 pictures that he later combined to create this image.
Recording by Hand by Liwia Pawłowska, Poland
Liwia Pawłowska won by her picture of a common whitethroat (白喉雀) being gently held while it is banded. When a bird is banded, a small ring is put on one of its legs. In the process scientists can learn about the bird’s size, health, age, and its migrations and then release it. Liwia Pawłowska hopes her picture will help“others to get to know this topic better”

A surfer who lost his right leg to a shark attack months ago has amazed people by returning to the waves on his one remaining leg. In a show of remarkable courage, the surfer Kai McKenzie paddled out to the same spot where he had been attacked by a white shark four months earlier, which was quite a rare case.
After the initial shock, McKenzie kept his spirits uplifted by his mission to return to the water before the end of the year. The 23-year-old had promised to get back into surfing as soon as he was able to. McKenzie took off his artificial limb (肢) and got back to riding the waves and practicing new moves. He paddled out with focus, catching several waves, jumping on his board with one leg and occasionally steering (控制) it with one hand when it was off course. It’s far from effortless to surf with one leg which causes imbalance, and when he wiped out, he'd only got one leg to swing back up.
Supported by family, McKenzie appeared at ease in the same water despite admitting he was a bit nervous because the water looked “exactly like that day”. His bravery and skill while surfing on one foot touched everyone. He later posted his return to the ocean online. “It’s one of the craziest feelings I’ve had! It’s the first time that I’d paddled back in the water where I got bitten,” he wrote. “I sat out there by myself and took it in for a little bit then a bunch of good people surfed with me.”
Mark, a surfing champion who lost his right leg due to cancer, mentioned McKenzie’s return to the ocean, saying, “That fear of the shark would have been behind him as he was paddling out. Getting back out there is extremely courageous. McKenzie might not at the top yet, but he’s young and he’ll adapt fast. He has taken his first and biggest step by getting out there.”
24. Why are people amazed by McKenzie?
A. He has lost his right leg. B. He rose right where he fell.
C. He has a gift for surfing. D. He was attacked by a shark.
25. How did McKenzie manage to surf with only one leg?
A. He relied on his artificial limb for support.
B. He got help from other surfers in the water.
C. He tried new moves and adjusted his techniques.
D. He used a special surfboard designed for balance.
26. What was McKenzie’s state of mind when returning to the water?
A. Basically relieved. B. Extremely tense.
C. Rather unwilling. D. Totally fearless.
27. What do Mark’s words imply about McKenzie’s future?
A. He will struggle to surf effectively.
B. He is likely to quit surfing due to fear.
C. He will live with the fear of the shark.
D. He is expected to be a promising surfer.
【答案】24. B 25. C 26. A 27. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Kai McKenzie被鲨鱼袭击,失去了一条腿。几个月后他回到被鲨鱼袭击的地方继续冲浪,展示了非凡的勇气。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“A surfer who lost his right leg to a shark attack months ago has amazed people by returning to the waves on his one remaining leg.(几个月前,一名冲浪者在鲨鱼袭击中失去了右腿,但他却用剩下的一条腿重新回到了海浪中,这让人们感到惊讶)”可知,McKenzie被鲨鱼袭击失去一条腿后又回到原来的地方冲浪,所以让人们感到惊讶的是McKenzie从哪里跌倒就从哪里爬起来的勇气,故选B。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“McKenzie took off his artificial limb (肢) and got back to riding the waves and practicing new moves. He paddled out with focus, catchıng several waves, jumping on his board with one leg and occasionally steering (控制) it with one hand when it was off course.(McKenzie取下他的假肢,重新开始冲浪,练习新的动作。他专注地划水,抓住了几次波浪,用一条腿跳上冲浪板,偶尔在偏离航线时用一只手操纵)”可知,McKenzie通过尝试新动作和调整技巧来保持平衡,他用一条腿跳上冲浪板,偶尔用一只手控制方向,故选C。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Supported by family, McKenzie appeared at ease in the same water despite admitting he was a bit nervous because the water looked ‘exactly like that day’.(在家人的支持下,McKenzie在同样的水里表现得很自在,尽管他承认自己有点紧张,因为水看起来‘和那天一模一样’)”可知,尽管McKenzie承认他有点紧张,因为那片水域看起来和他出事的那天一样,但在家人的支持下,他总体上还是比较放松,故选A。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Getting back out there is extremely courageous. McKenzie might not at the top yet, but he’s young and he’ll adapt fast. He has taken his first and biggest step by getting out there.(回到那里是非常勇敢的。McKenzie也许还不是顶尖的,但他很年轻,很快就能适应。他已经迈出了第一步,也是最大的一步)”可知,Mark认为McKenzie回到海洋中是非常勇敢的,尽管McKenzie还不是顶尖的冲浪者,但他年轻,适应得很快,这意味着Mark相信McKenzie能成为优秀的冲浪者,故选D。
C
Mike said the £10 that he paid for an anti-snoring (防止打鼾的) pillow last summer would have been better spent on bread. Still, it seemed like an opportunity too good to miss at that time, a tiny price to pay to give his wife good nights and to save him from sleep divorce.
However, the silent night it promised never materialized and he’s now frequently banished to the living room. The pillow meanwhile is in a landfill somewhere, along with countless others he imagines, purchased by people who were sold a dream.
James Smith, a sleep expert, sympathizes. He warns people to be careful of the claims some pillow dealers make. Pillows claiming to be anti-snoring don’t stop snoring in itself. They are designed to reposition the head and neck to open the airways, but it is worth noting that 67% of snorers will stop or reduce snoring simply by lying on their side, so it may be more advantageous to find “good pillows” that could optimize (优化) sleep in a side sleeping position, James Smith suggested.
Those “good pillows” should be comfortable and should preserve a good sleep position. If they can keep a person on his side, they will probably help reduce snoring. Different sizes and types of pillows are better for different sleepers. A side sleeper should choose a pillow that fills the gap and keeps their head in position. However, for back sleepers, a pillow should fill the space between the shoulders and the back of the head. This will always mean a thinner pillow than that of a side sleeper, as it is a smaller gap to fill.
Given how individual a choice of pillows is, the most sensible strategy is to try before you commit to buying. And this shouldn’t be a quick squeeze (捏) in the bed shop. Try it for as long as possible. Many pillows now come with a trial period. Is it still comfortable after 5, 10 or even 15 minutes?
28. How did Mike feel after buying an anti-snoring pillow?
A. Regretful. B. Secure. C. Confused. D. Worried.
29. What does the underlined word “banished” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Taken in. B. Relied on. C. Called on. D. Driven out.
30. How do “good pillows” suggested by James Smith help snorers?
A. By keeping side sleepers from lying on their side.
B. By supporting the body correctly for side sleepers.
C. By using comfortable materials as a sleeping aid.
D. By using thinner sizes to improve quality of sleep.
31. What is the key advice given for choosing a pillow?
A. Feel it briefly in the store. B. Choose one with good flexibility.
C. Test it extensively before buying. D. Check its comfort after a trial period.
【答案】28. A 29. D 30. B 31. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了防打鼾枕头并不一定有效,专家建议人们挑选适合自己睡姿的枕头并试用一段时间。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“Mike said the £10 that he paid for an anti - snoring pillow last summer would have been better spent on bread.( 迈克说,去年夏天他花了10英镑买了一个防打鼾枕头,如果把钱花在面包上,效果会更好)”可知,迈克觉得买防打鼾枕头的钱花得不值,要是花在面包上就好了,所以他感到后悔。故选A项。
【29题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第二段划线单词句中“However, the silent night it promised never materialized and he’s now frequently banished to the living room.( 然而,它承诺的宁静之夜从未实现,他现在经常被banished客厅)”可知,防打鼾枕头没有起到作用,他经常被赶到客厅去睡,故可猜测“banished”意思是“驱赶,驱逐”,与D选项“driven out(被赶出去)”意思相近。故选 D。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“Those “good pillows” should be comfortable and should preserve a good sleep position. If they can keep a person on his side, they will probably help reduce snoring. Different sizes and types of pillows are better for different sleepers. A side sleeper should choose a pillow that fills the gap and keeps their head in position.( 这些“好枕头”应该是舒适的,应该保持一个良好的睡眠姿势。如果它们能让人侧卧,就可能有助于减少打鼾。不同尺寸和类型的枕头适合不同的睡眠者。侧睡的人应该选择一个能填补空隙的枕头,让他们的头保持在正确的位置)”可知, 詹姆斯·史密斯建议的“好枕头”通过为侧睡者正确支撑身体来帮助打鼾者。故选B项。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Given how individual a choice of pillows is, the most sensible strategy is to try before you commit to buying. And this shouldn’t be a quick squeeze (捏) in the bed shop. Try it for as long as possible.( 考虑到枕头的选择是因人而异的,最明智的策略是在你决定购买之前先试一试。床品店也不应该这么快就挤进去。尽可能长时间地尝试)”可知,选择枕头的关键建议是在购买前充分试用。故选C项。
D
Researchers have found that the global goal of limiting warming to 1.5℃ above preindustrial levels is now almost certainly impossible. There is a 50% chance, the researchers reported, that global warming will exceed (超过) 2℃ even if humanity meets current goals of rapid decarbonization (脱碳) to net zero by the 2050s. Previous studies have concluded that decarbonization at the pace would likely keep global warming below 2℃.
For the new study, climate scientist Noah Diffenbaugh and his team trained an AI system to predict how high global temperatures could climb, depending on the pace of decarbonization. When training the AI, they used temperature and greenhouse gas data from lots of climate model simulations (模拟). To predict future warming, however, they fed AI the actual historical temperatures, along with different possible futures for greenhouse gas emissions.
Their study found that many regions will exceed 3℃ of warming by 2060 in a situation in which emissions continue to increase — sooner than predicted in earlier studies, and that the world has almost certainly missed its chance to achieve the ambitious goal of keeping long-term warming below 2℃.
The study builds on 2023 research in which researchers predicted how many years are left before the 1.5 and 2℃ goals are exceeded. However, as these thresholds (阈) are based on average conditions over many years, they don’t tell the full story of how extreme the climate could become.
The new predictions underline the importance of investing more than in decarbonization. We’ve been seeing accelerating trend of extreme weather impacts globally in recent years. This study also suggests that, even in the best-case situation, we are very likely to experience conditions that are more severe than what we’ve been dealing with recently.
“Even if all the effort and investment in decarbonization is as successful as possible, there is a real risk, without equal investments in making human and natural systems more resilient to severe consequences of continued warming,” said Diffenbaugh.
32. What is the main conclusion of the study?
A. Keeping warming below 1.5℃ is now out of reach.
B. Limiting warming to 2℃ is still possible.
C. Decarbonization will limit warming.
D. Warming has already exceeded 2℃.
33. How does AI work in predicting global warming?
A. By focusing on decarbonization goals.
B. By analyzing extreme weather events.
C. By combining models with real-world data.
D. By learning from historical temperature data.
34. What does Diffenbaugh suggest is needed besides decarbonization?
A. New technologies. B. More investment in adaptation.
C. Slower decarbonization. D. Focus merely on emissions.
35. What can be the best title for the text?
A. The Future of Decarbonization
B. The Role of AI in Climate Prediction
C. The Impact of Greenhouse Gas Emissions
D. The Challenge of Achieving Climate Goals
【答案】32. A 33. C 34. B 35. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了研究人员发现,将全球变暖限制在比工业化前水平高1.5℃的目标现在几乎肯定是不可能的。研究人员报告称,即使人类实现了目前的快速脱碳目标,到2050年代实现净零排放,全球变暖仍有50%的可能性超过2℃。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Researchers have found that the global goal of limiting warming to 1.5℃ above preindustrial levels is now almost certainly impossible.( 研究人员发现,将全球变暖限制在比工业化前水平高1.5℃的目标现在几乎肯定是不可能的)”可知,将全球变暖限制在比工业化前水平高 1.5℃的全球目标现在几乎肯定无法实现。故选A项。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“When training the AI, they used temperature and greenhouse gas data from lots of climate model simulations (模拟). To predict future warming, however, they fed AI the actual historical temperatures, along with different possible futures for greenhouse gas emissions.( 在训练人工智能时,他们使用了许多气候模型模拟温度和温室气体数据。然而,为了预测未来的变暖,他们向人工智能提供了实际的历史温度,以及未来不同可能的温室气体排放。)”可知,在训练人工智能时,使用了许多气候模型模拟的温度和温室气体数据,为了预测未来变暖情况,又给人工智能输入了实际的历史温度以及温室气体排放的不同可能的未来情况,即人工智能通过将模型与现实世界的数据相结合来预测全球变暖。故选C项。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““Even if all the effort and investment in decarbonization is as successful as possible, there is a real risk, without equal investments in making human and natural systems more resilient to severe consequences of continued warming,” said Diffenbaugh. ( Diffenbaugh说:“即使所有的努力和投资都尽可能地成功,如果没有同等的投资来提高人类和自然系统对持续变暖的严重后果的适应能力,也会有真正的风险。”)” 可知,Diffenbaugh认为即使在脱碳方面的所有努力和投资都尽可能成功,如果没有在使人类和自然系统对持续变暖的严重后果更具弹性方面进行同等的投资,仍然存在真正的风险,也就是除了脱碳之外,还需要在适应方面进行更多投资。故选B项。
【35题详解】

Say “yes” to little things

【36题详解】
根据上文“Saying “yes” to a big financial investment or moving to another city can be scary. You can overcome this fear by saying “yes” to little things. For example, when a colleague asks you to join them for lunch, say “yes”. When a friend invites you to a new hobby class, don't hesitate. (对一项大的金融投资或搬到另一个城市说“是”可能会让人害怕。你可以通过对小事说“是”来克服这种恐惧。例如,当一个同事邀请你和他们一起吃午饭时,说“好”。当一个朋友邀请你参加一个新的兴趣班时,不要犹豫。)”可知,本句主要总结上文中的通过小步骤建立信心,为迎接更大机会做准备的内容。故E选项“这些小小的承诺是迈向更大机会的一步。”符合语境,故选E。
【37题详解】
根据后文“Life is full of unexpected turns, though. Being able to accept new situations is a valuable skill. By saying “yes” to changes, you train yourself to be more comfortable with uncertainty. You learn to trust that you can handle whatever comes your way, whether it's a new project at work or a sudden invitation to a social event. (然而,生活充满了意想不到的转折。能够接受新环境是一项宝贵的技能。通过对变化说“是”,你训练自己更适应不确定性。你学会相信自己可以处理任何事情,无论是工作中的新项目还是突然邀请你参加社交活动。)”可知,本句主要引出自满的概念,为下文提到的学会接受变化做铺垫。故F选项“你可能已经适应了你的生活”符合语境,故选F。
【38题详解】
根据上文“Regular self-reflection is crucial for personal growth. (定期的自我反省对个人成长至关重要。)”可知,本句承接上文,提供了一种将自我反思融入日常生活中的实际方法。故D选项“留出时间来评估你的经历、目标和进步”符合语境,故选D。
【39题详解】
根据后文“Say “yes” to group projects, joint ventures, or community initiatives. Working with others allows you to pool resources, share ideas, and learn from different perspectives. (对团队项目、合资企业或社区倡议说“是”。与他人合作可以让你汇集资源,分享想法,并从不同的角度学习。)”可知,该段建议与他人合作并介绍了其好处,强调了合作的力量。故B选项“对团队合作说‘是’”符合语境,故选B。
【40题详解】
根据上文“Working with others allows you to pool resources, share ideas, and learn from different perspectives. (与他人合作可以让你汇集资源,分享想法,并从不同的角度学习。)”以及后文“Each collective effort enhances your ability to work effectively with others, preparing you for more significant opportunities in the future. (每一次集体努力都能提高你与他人有效合作的能力,为你未来更重要的机会做好准备。)”可知,本句总结了合作的独特优势,强调了通过合作实现创新和成功的可能性。故C选项“它可以带来单独可能无法实现的突破”符合语境,故选C。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了集宁-大同-元平高铁近日正式投入运营,这标志着山西省和内蒙古自治区之间直接高铁线路的开通。
【56题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:集宁-大同-元平高铁近日正式投入运营,这标志着山西省和内蒙古自治区之间直接高铁线路的开通。分析句子可知,此处为非谓语动词作状语,mark和逻辑主语为前面整句话为主动关系,所以为现在分词形式。故填marking。
【57题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:这条长达309公里的线路连接内蒙古乌兰察布和山西元平,途经山西大同、朔州和忻州市,还与大同-西安高铁相连,有9个站点。分析句子可知,设空处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词“The 309 - kilometer line”,指物,关系词在定语从句中作主语,所以用关系代词which引导。故填which。
【58题详解】
考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:这条长达309公里的线路连接内蒙古乌兰察布和山西元平,途经山西大同、朔州和忻州,还与大同-西安高铁相连,有9个站点。“and”连接并列的谓语动词,“runs”是一般现在时,“connect”也应用一般现在时,主语“the line”是第三人称单数,所以谓语动词用第三人称单数形式“connects”。故填connects。
【59题详解】
考查冠词。句意:它是国家“八纵八横”铁路网的重要组成部分。“component”是可数名词单数,此处表示泛指“一个重要的组成部分”,“important”是以元音音素开头的单词,所以用不定冠词“an”。故填an。
【60题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:这条新线的设计时速高达250公里,将把内蒙古省会呼和浩特和山西省会太原之间的旅行时间从之前的5个多小时缩短到3小时12分钟左右。分析句子可知,此处为非谓语动词作后置定语修饰“The new line”,“The new line”与“design”之间是被动关系,即“新线路被设计”,所以用过去分词作后置定语。故填designed。
【61题详解】
考查介词。句意:这条新线的设计时速高达250公里,将把内蒙古省会呼和浩特和山西省会太原之间的旅行时间从之前的5个多小时缩短到3小时12分钟左右。“cut...from...to...”是固定短语,意为“把……从……削减到……”,所以此处填“from”,表示将旅行时间从之前的五个多小时削减到大约3小时12分钟。故填from。
【62题详解】
考查副词比较级。句意:山西省发展和改革委员会的一位主任表示:“这条新线标志着两省省会之间快速铁路客运通道的开通,将进一步改善区域铁路网。” 根据语境,这里表示“进一步改善区域铁路网络”,“further”有“进一步”的意思,“far”的比较级“further”更符合语境。故填further。
【63题详解】
考查名词。句意:这对推动一带一路经济社会高质量发展具有重要意义。“of great +名词” 相当于“very + 形容词”,“significant”是形容词,其名词形式是“significance”,“of great significance”表示“具有重大意义”。故填significance。
【64题详解】
考查动词语态。句意:随着高铁的开通,山西和内蒙古之间的距离可以在很大程度上缩短,使旅行更加方便。此处为谓语动词的填入,“The distance”与“shorten”之间是被动关系,即“距离被缩短”,“can”是情态动词,其后接动词原形,所以用“be + 过去分词”构成被动语态。故填be shortened。
【65题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意:他表达了欢迎更多游客来山西的愿望,他说:“沿途有许多拍摄地点,包括云冈石窟、悬空寺和应县木塔。“desire to do sth.”是固定用法,意为“渴望做某事”,所以用动词不定式作后置定语。故填to welcome。

第二节(满分25分)
67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was a regular day at the smartphone store. The usual crowd of customers came in, each with their own unique issues. My job was to help them all, whether it was something as simple as transferring contacts or as difficult as fixing a phone that wouldn’t turn on.
Then Joe appeared. He looked to be in his early 50s. His hair was slightly graying. He was practically running towards the counter, his eyes wide with panic.
“You need to give me a new phone!” Joe almost shouted. “This one you sold me a few days ago is broken! The photos in my phone are totally messed up!”
Joe’s urgency made me pay closer attention. “Let’s take a look at what’s going on,” I said. Joe thrust (塞) the phone into my hands, nearly dropping it.
“Look at this! Every picture is ruined!” He sounded out of breath. I opened the photo gallery, and sure enough, the selfies (自拍照) he’d taken were quite strange: His forehead was stretched, and his eyes were oddly wide. The pictures looked like something out of a funhouse mirror.
I started checking the settings, detecting there was a heavy filter (滤光器) turned on, which was distorting (扭曲) his face in every picture. “Sir, it’s actually a filter that’s causing the issue. Your phone isn’t broken; it’s just the settings. Resetting the settings of the camera will help.”
“But it’s digital! I didn’t mess with anything! My photos were fine when I took them,”he argued. “I need these pictures to be perfect! Please, just fix it,” his voice had softened, almost like he was begging now.
Then, almost in a whisper, he admitted, “I need these photos for a dating website.”Suddenly, it all made sense. This was not just any photo but was his shot at finding love. The thought of it going wrong had made him completely uneasy.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Realizing how much this meant to Joe, I knew I had to help him.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I showed him the results of my shots of him.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】参考范文:
Realizing how much this meant to Joe, I knew I had to help him. I showed him how to reset the camera settings, making sure to turn off the filter that had been causing the distortion. I double-checked everything, wanting to be certain that this time the photos would come out just right. After completing the adjustment, I suggested Joe start fresh and take some new photos. He still looked tense, like he wasn’t sure this would work. I offered to help him take photos and guided him to pose decently. “Okay, just relax and give me a smile.” Joe forced a nervous but hopeful smile.
I showed him the results of my shots of him. Joe stared at the screen for a moment, and then, as if a huge weight had been lifted off his shoulders. Those pictures were normal: His forehead wasn’t stretched, and his eyes looked like his own. He broke into a wide smile.“These are perfect!” he exclaimed, his voice filled with relief. “You really saved the day.”Then Joe left the store a different man, hopeful and ready to take his shot at finding love.Seeing him off, I sensed a smile spread across my face. Sometimes, the smallest gestures really do make the biggest difference.

【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了作者在智能手机店工作时的经历。一天,五十出头的乔惊慌失措地跑到店里,称几天前买的手机坏了,手机里的照片全乱了。作者检查后发现是相机设置了强滤光器导致照片扭曲变形,手机本身没问题,只需重置相机设置即可。但乔坚持说自己没动过设置,还表示这些照片是用于约会网站,对他很重要。作者意识到此事对乔意义重大,便帮他重置了相机设置,关掉了滤光器,还主动提出帮他拍照并指导他摆姿势。看到拍出来的正常照片后,乔如释重负,露出了开心的笑容,对作者表示感谢后满怀希望地离开了。

The Natural History Museum in London holds a yearly contest for the Wildlife Photographer of the Year. There’s a separate contest for people aged 10 and under,11-14,and 15-17, known as the“Young Wildlife Photographer of the Year”. Here are some of this year’s best winning pictures.
Free as a Bird by Alberto Román Gómez, Spain
Alberto Román Gómez snapped this picture of a young stonechat (野翁鸟) sitting on a gate hunting for insects. The judges liked how Alberto captured the bird’s wild nature while showing it in a human setting.
An Evening Meal by Parham Pourahmad, USA
Parham Pourahmad shot this picture of a Cooper’s eagle eating a squirrel (松鼠) that it has caught. The judges were impressed with the way Parham Pourahmad framed the picture, and the way the sunlight lit the scene.
Life Under Dead Wood by Alexis Tinker-Tsavalas, Germany
Alexis Tinker-Tsavalas created this image of a springtail(弹尾虫)next to the“fruiting body” of a mushroom. Alexis had to be quick, since the springtail could jump at any moment. Still, he managed to take 36 pictures that he later combined to create this image.
Recording by Hand by Liwia Pawłowska, Poland
Liwia Pawłowska won by her picture of a common whitethroat (白喉雀) being gently held while it is banded. When a bird is banded, a small ring is put on one of its legs.

A surfer who lost his right leg to a shark attack months ago has amazed people by returning to the waves on his one remaining leg. In a show of remarkable courage, the surfer Kai McKenzie paddled out to the same spot where he had been attacked by a white shark four months earlier, which was quite a rare case.
After the initial shock, McKenzie kept his spirits uplifted by his mission to return to the water before the end of the year. The 23-year-old had promised to get back into surfing as soon as he was able to. McKenzie took off his artificial limb (肢) and got back to riding the waves and practicing new moves. He paddled out with focus, catching several waves, jumping on his board with one leg and occasionally steering (控制) it with one hand when it was off course. It’s far from effortless to surf with one leg which causes imbalance, and when he wiped out, he'd only got one leg to swing back up.
Supported by family, McKenzie appeared at ease in the same water despite admitting he was a bit nervous because the water looked “exactly like that day”. His bravery and skill while surfing on one foot touched everyone. He later posted his return to the ocean online. “It’s one of the craziest feelings I’ve had! It’s the first time that I’d paddled back in the water where I got bitten,” he wrote. “I sat out there by myself and took it in for a little bit then a bunch of good people surfed with me.”
Mark, a surfing champion who lost his right leg due to cancer, mentioned McKenzie’s return to the ocean, saying, “That fear of the shark would have been behind him as he was paddling out. Getting back out there is extremely courageous. McKenzie might not at the top yet, but he’s young and he’ll adapt fast. He has taken his first and biggest step by getting out there.”
24. Why are people amazed by McKenzie?
A. He has lost his right leg. B. He rose right where he fell.
C. He has a gift for surfing. D. He was attacked by a shark.
25. How did McKenzie manage to surf with only one leg?
A. He relied on his artificial limb for support.
B. He got help from other surfers in the water.
C. He tried new moves and adjusted his techniques.
D. He used a special surfboard designed for balance.
26. What was McKenzie’s state of mind when returning to the water?
A. Basically relieved. B. Extremely tense.
C. Rather unwilling. D. Totally fearless.
27. What do Mark’s words imply about McKenzie’s future?
A. He will struggle to surf effectively.
B. He is likely to quit surfing due to fear.
C. He will live with the fear of the shark.
D. He is expected to be a promising surfer.
C
Mike said the £10 that he paid for an anti-snoring (防止打鼾的) pillow last summer would have been better spent on bread. Still, it seemed like an opportunity too good to miss at that time, a tiny price to pay to give his wife good nights and to save him from sleep divorce.
However, the silent night it promised never materialized and he’s now frequently banished to the living room. The pillow meanwhile is in a landfill somewhere, along with countless others he imagines, purchased by people who were sold a dream.
James Smith, a sleep expert, sympathizes. He warns people to be careful of the claims some pillow dealers make. Pillows claiming to be anti-snoring don’t stop snoring in itself. They are designed to reposition the head and neck to open the airways, but it is worth noting that 67% of snorers will stop or reduce snoring simply by lying on their side, so it may be more advantageous to find “good pillows” that could optimize (优化) sleep in a side sleeping position, James Smith suggested.
Those “good pillows” should be comfortable and should preserve a good sleep position. If they can keep a person on his side, they will probably help reduce snoring. Different sizes and types of pillows are better for different sleepers. A side sleeper should choose a pillow that fills the gap and keeps their head in position. However, for back sleepers, a pillow should fill the space between the shoulders and the back of the head. This will always mean a thinner pillow than that of a side sleeper, as it is a smaller gap to fill.
Given how individual a choice of pillows is the most sensible strategy is to try before you commit to buying. And this shouldn’t be a quick squeeze (捏) in the bed shop. Try it for as long as possible. Many pillows now come with a trial period. Is it still comfortable after 5, 10 or even 15 minutes?
28. How did Mike feel after buying an anti-snoring pillow?
A. Regretful. B. Secure. C. Confused. D. Worried.
29. What does the underlined word “banished” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Taken in. B. Relied on. C. Called on. D. Driven out.
30. How do “good pillows” suggested by James Smith help snorers?
A. By keeping side sleepers from lying on their side.
B. By supporting the body correctly for side sleepers.
C. By using comfortable materials as a sleeping aid.
D. By using thinner sizes to improve quality of sleep.
31. What is the key advice given for choosing a pillow?
A. Feel it briefly in the store. B. Choose one with good flexibility.
C. Test it extensively before buying. D. Check its comfort after a trial period.
D
Researchers have found that the global goal of limiting warming to 1.5℃ above preindustrial levels is now almost certainly impossible. There is a 50% chance, the researchers reported, that global warming will exceed (超过) 2℃ even if humanity meets current goals of rapid decarbonization (脱碳) to net zero by the 2050s. Previous studies have concluded that decarbonization at the pace would likely keep global warming below 2℃.
For the new study, climate scientist Noah Diffenbaugh and his team trained an AI system to predict how high global temperatures could climb, depending on the pace of decarbonization. When training the AI, they used temperature and greenhouse gas data from lots of climate model simulations (模拟). To predict future warming, however, they fed AI the actual historical temperatures, along with different possible futures for greenhouse gas emissions.
Their study found that many regions will exceed 3℃ of warming by 2060 in a situation in which emissions continue to increase — sooner than predicted in earlier studies, and that the world has almost certainly missed its chance to achieve the ambitious goal of keeping long-term warming below 2℃.
The study builds on 2023 research in which researchers predicted how many years are left before the 1.5 and 2℃ goals are exceeded. However, as these thresholds (阈) are based on average conditions over many years, they don’t tell the full story of how extreme the climate could become.
The new predictions underline the importance of investing more than in decarbonization. We’ve been seeing accelerating trend of extreme weather impacts globally in recent years. This study also suggests that, even in the best-case situation, we are very likely to experience conditions that are more severe than what we’ve been dealing with recently.
“Even if all the effort and investment in decarbonization is as successful as possible, there is a real risk, without equal investments in making human and natural systems more resilient to severe consequences of continued warming,” said Diffenbaugh.
32. What is the main conclusion of the study?
A. Keeping warming below 1.5℃ is now out of reach.
B. Limiting warming to 2℃ is still possible.
C. Decarbonization will limit warming.
D. Warming has already exceeded 2℃.
33. How does AI work in predicting global warming?
A. By focusing on decarbonization goals.
B By analyzing extreme weather events.
C. By combining models with real-world data.
D. By learning from historical temperature data.
34. What does Diffenbaugh suggest is needed besides decarbonization?
A. New technologies. B. More investment in adaptation.
C. Slower decarbonization. D. Focus merely on emissions.
35. What can be the best title for the text?
A. The Future of Decarbonization
B. The Role of AI in Climate Prediction
C. The Impact of Greenhouse Gas Emissions
D. The Challenge of Achieving Climate Goals

第二节(满分25分)
67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was a regular day at the smartphone store. The usual crowd of customers came in, each with their own unique issues. My job was to help them all, whether it was something as simple as transferring contacts or as difficult as fixing a phone that wouldn’t turn on.
Then Joe appeared. He looked to be in his early 50s. His hair was slightly graying. He was practically running towards the counter, his eyes wide with panic.
“You need to give me a new phone!” Joe almost shouted. “This one you sold me a few days ago is broken! The photos in my phone are totally messed up!”
Joe’s urgency made me pay closer attention. “Let’s take a look at what’s going on,” I said. Joe thrust (塞) the phone into my hands, nearly dropping it.
“Look at this! Every picture is ruined!” He sounded out of breath. I opened the photo gallery, and sure enough, the selfies (自拍照) he’d taken were quite strange: His forehead was stretched, and his eyes were oddly wide. The pictures looked like something out of a funhouse mirror.
I started checking the settings, detecting there was a heavy filter (滤光器) turned on, which was distorting (扭曲) his face in every picture. “Sir, it’s actually a filter that’s causing the issue. Your phone isn’t broken; it’s just the settings. Resetting the settings of the camera will help.”
“But it’s digital! I didn’t mess with anything! My photos were fine when I took them,”he argued. “I need these pictures to be perfect! Please, just fix it,” his voice had softened, almost like he was begging now.
Then, almost in a whisper, he admitted, “I need these photos for a dating website.”Suddenly, it all made sense. This was not just any photo but was his shot at finding love. The thought of it going wrong had made him completely uneasy.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Realizing how much this meant to Joe, I knew I had to help him.

I showed him the results of my shots of him.
