Inspired by a school project, Sophia conducted in-depth research by interviewing scientists and government officials and presented her findings on water conservation to the United Nations. Sophia’s scientific inquiry led her to experiment with hydrogels (水凝胶) — substances capable of absorbing and retaining water — which could be used in agriculture to reduce water consumption and lessen the strain on the lake’s water supply. While in eighth grade at Rowland Hall Middle School in Salt Lake City, she developed her own eco-friendly hydrogels using starch and other biodegradable materials. Her innovative approach earned her second place in the Technology category at the 2024 Scientific Junior Innovators Challenge, organized by Society for Science. Sophia credits her success to the guidance of her mentors — local high school science teachers who dedicated their time to teaching her organic chemistry, providing resources, and lending her laboratory equipment. “They spent countless lunch hours mentoring me,” she recalls. Sophia emphasizes that finding good mentors can start with something as simple as sending an email to knowledgeable people in the community. One key lesson Sophia learned is that scientific experiments rarely go exactly as planned. Through trial and error, discussions with mentors, and extensive reading, she realized that setbacks are an integral part of the scientific process. For aspiring scientists, Sophia offers advice: observe curiously, think carefully, and act courageously. She encourages a proactive approach to problem-solving, starting with community issues, studying existing solutions, and bravely exploring new paths. Sophia’s experience, marked by overcoming research obstacles, highlights the rewarding nature of scientific exploration. And her story demonstrates that while research can be challenging, the pursuit of solutions is immensely fulfilling. 24. What motivated Sophia to research hydrogels? A.

They can see things others can’t notice and create beautiful art forms from their imagination. In the case of 27-year-old Emily Shifflet, she creates her art literally using only her eyes, as she lives with Rett syndrome, a rare genetic and developmental disorder that limits speech and movement. “Although Emily lives with a condition that has silenced her, she is still able to communicate and express herself through art, and she is an example that people living with Rett syndrome can have lives filled with purpose and creativity,” said Emily’s mother, Jenny Shifflet. Emily creates her art using a special digital software operated by her eyes called Tobii Dynavox. She was able to learn and practice her painting by using the digital painter software on her communication device. Meghan Winslow, owner of a family art studio, said, “I love the diversity of the different designs based upon the different painting tools that she can select. It’s an amazing mix of science, technology and art.” Emily has always been exposed to music and art. Tobii Dynavox has really helped her communicate how she was feeling. The painting tool was truly a game-changer. “Emily could finally use the only muscle she has to be creative,” Jenny said. Jenny noticed the art Emily was creating a few years ago and thought they could make nice gifts. She now sells her one-of-a-kind artwork through her website, Eye Gaze Designs by Emily. “Her artwork is a gift,” Jenny said. “It is showing people that individuals with different abilities can be creative and successful in different ways. That’s what we want to show.” Emily’s artwork has also appeared in Hershey Medical Center and The Art of Pennsylvania. She also serves as a guest artist at SPLAT-A Family Art Studio in Annville and Hershey, Pennsylvania. She simply continues to shine. 4. What is special about Emily Shifflet’s art creation? A. She uses traditional paintbrushes. B. She creates art through eye movements. C. She relies on others’ physical assistance. D. She focuses on abstract philosophical themes. 5. What does the underlined word “game-changer” in paragraph 3 mean? A. A creative tool. B. challenging rule. C. A risky experiment. D. A temporary solution. 6. Why does Jenny sell Emily’s artwork online? A. To earn money for medical treatment. B. To prove Emily’s ability to communicate. C. To inspire people with disabilities creatively. D. To promote digital software technology. 7. What message does Emily’s story mainly convey? A. Art requires advanced scientific knowledge. B. Disabilities cannot limit creativity and success. C. Family support is key to overcoming challenges. D. Technology alone determines artistic value. 【答案】4．B 5．A 6．C 7．B 【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。讲述Emily Shifflet，一位患有Rett综合征的艺术家，用眼睛通过特殊软件创作艺术。文章结构分为四段：介绍Emily的情况，她母亲的评价和使用的技术，艺术工作室老板的评价，以及她的成就和影响。 4. 答案：B 解析：根据原文 “In the case of 27-year-old Emily Shifflet, she creates her art literally using only her eyes” 以及 “Emily creates her art using a special digital software operated by her eyes called Tobii Dynavox” 可知，艾米丽通过眼部动作操作特殊软件创作艺术。B 选项 “She creates art through eye movements” 是对原文的同义转述，将 “using only her eyes”“using a special digital software operated by her eyes” 转化为 “through eye movements” ，意思相符，所以选 B。A 选项 “使用传统画笔” 与原文不符；C 选项 “依赖他人身体协助” 文中未提及；D 选项 “专注于抽象哲学主题” 文中也未体现。 5. 答案：A 解析：结合前文 “Tobii Dynavox has really helped her communicate how she was feeling.” 以及后文 “Emily could finally use the only muscle she has to be creative” 可知，Tobii Dynavox 这款绘画工具让艾米丽能够发挥创造力，对她意义重大。“game-changer” 在这里指的是具有创新性、能带来巨大改变的工具，B 选项 “A creative tool”（一个有创意的工具）是对其含义的同义表述 ，所以选 A。B 选项 “一个具有挑战性的规则”、C 选项 “一个有风险的实验”、D 选项 “一个临时解决方案” 均不符合语境。 6. 答案：C 解析：从文中 “Her artwork is a gift,” Jenny said. “It is showing people that individuals with different abilities can be creative and successful in different ways. That’s what we want to show.” 可知，珍妮在网上出售艾米丽的作品，是想通过这些作品向人们展示残障人士也能以不同方式拥有创造力并取得成功，从而激励其他残障人士。C 选项 “To inspire people with disabilities creatively”（为了激励有创造力的残障人士）是对原文目的的同义转述，所以选 C。A 选项 “为治疗赚钱”、B 选项 “证明艾米丽的沟通能力”、D 选项 “推广数字软件技术” 均与原文目的不符。 7. 答案：B 解析：文章主要讲述了患有罕见疾病的艾米丽，尽管身体受限，但通过眼部操作软件进行艺术创作，并取得成功，证明了残疾并不能限制创造力和成功。B 选项 “Disabilities cannot limit creativity and success”（残疾不能限制创造力和成功）准确概括了文章主旨，是对艾米丽故事核心意义的同义转述 ，所以选 B。A 选项 “艺术需要先进的科学知识”、C 选项 “家庭支持是克服挑战的关键”、D 选项 “仅技术决定艺术价值” 均不是文章主要传达的信息。 【密押点睛】 1.

The watercolor brushes on my desk stared back at me like abandoned friends. I’m Lora, an 18- year-old who secretly drew brain diagrams on napkins while classmate drew cartoons. “Art feeds the soul but starve the body,” Mom always said. Her words haunted me as my biology textbooks slowly buried my drawing pads. Then came the school career fair that changed everything. Dr. Eleanor Whitman from Harvard asked us to list our “hidden skills” My hand shook as I wrote “observing details” something I’d learned from painting flower petals. “That’s medical research’s most needed skill!” she exclaimed, sharing how a student turned microbiology notes into textbook illustrations. My lab partner whispered, “Remember our photosynthesis (光合作用) comic?” For the first time, my two worlds didn’t feel so separate. The real surprise came during hospital volunteering. Watching surgeries, I noticed something-the steady hands of doctors reminded me of my brush work. When a boy struggled to describe his pain, I drew a fire-breathing dragon on his cast. “You made medicine speak,” the nurse said. Slowly, my drawing pads filled with cells that looked like colored-glass art and X-rays arranged like abstract paintings. Mr. Dawson, our career counselor, helped connect these dots. On his white board, my medical knowledge and art skills overlapped in a bright yellow circle labeled “Medical Illustration” He showed me job li stings I never knew existed — graphic designers for science alps, 3D modelers for anatomy (解剖) classes. “Your” impractical skill makes you stand out,” he said, pointing to my dragon drawing now used in pain management workshops. Today, my microscope and paintbrushes share the same desk. The same hands that once hesitated between them now create 3D models of viruses for vaccine education. Sometimes I teach young patients to draw their feelings instead of describing them. My story isn’t about heart and reality cancelling each other out —they just multiply possibilities. 4．What can be inferred about Lora from paragraph 1? A．She had given up the hobby of drawing. B．She was excited about studying medicine. C．She felt torn between art and medical study. D．She regretted not practicing painting earlier. 5．Dr. Eleanor thought of Lora’s “hidden skills” as______. A．a plus B．a leisure C．a distraction D．a burden 6．How did Lora’s hospital experience influence her? A．It helped develop her surgical skills. B．It directed her toward doctor training. C．It boosted her enthusiasm for abstract art. D．It convinced her of art’s role in health care. 7．What message does the author want to convey? A．Follow the beaten track to success. B．A picture is worth a thousand words. C．Don’t put all your eggs in one basket. D．Two strings to your bow light the way. 【答案】4．C 5．A 6．D 7．D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Lora在艺术和医学研究之间徘徊，最终找到艺术和医学结合点——医学插画的故事。 4．推理判断题。根据第一段“My fingers trembled as I signed the pre-medical application form. The watercolor brushes on my desk stared back at me like abandoned friends. (当我签署医学院申请表时，我的手指在颤抖。我桌上的水彩笔像被遗弃的朋友一样盯着我。)”以及““Art feeds the soul but starve the body,” Mom always said. Her words haunted me as my biology textbooks slowly buried my drawing pads.(“艺术滋养灵魂，却让身体挨饿，”妈妈总是说。当我的生物课本慢慢埋葬了我的绘图板时，她的话一直萦绕在我耳边。)”可推知，Lora在艺术和医学研究之间左右为难。故选C。 5．推理判断题。根据第二段“Dr. Eleanor Whitman from Harvard asked us to list our “hidden skills” My hand shook as I wrote “observing details” something I’d learned from painting flower pet a ls. “That’s medical research’s most needed skill!” she exclaimed, sharing how a student turned microbiology notes into textbook illustrations.(来自哈佛大学的埃莉诺・惠特曼博士让我们列出自己的 “隐藏技能”。我的手在写下 “观察细节” 时颤抖着，这是我从描绘花瓣中学到的技能。“那可是医学研究中最需要的技能！” 她大声说道，并分享了一名学生是如何把微生物学笔记转化为教科书插图的经历。)”可推知，埃莉诺博士认为萝拉的“隐藏技能”是一个加分项。故选A。 6．细节理解题。根据第三段“The real surprise came during hospital volunteering. Watching surgeries, I noticed something-the steady hands of doctors reminded me of my brush work. When a boy struggled to describe his pain, I drew a fire-breathing dragon on his cast. “You made medicine speak,” the nurse said. Slowly, my drawing pads filled with cells that looked like colored-glass art and X-rays arranged like abstract paintings.(真正的惊喜是在医院做志愿者时出现的。看着手术，我注意到一些事情------医生们稳定的双手让我想起了我的画笔。当一个男孩努力描述自己的痛苦时，我在他的石膏上画了一条喷火的龙。“你让医学说话了，”护士说。慢慢地，我的绘图板上画满了看起来像彩色玻璃艺术的细胞和像抽象画的X光片。)”可知，Lora的医院经历使她确信艺术在医疗保健中的作用。故选D。 7．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Today, my microscope and paintbrushes share the same desk. The same hands that once hesitated between them now create 3 D models of viruses for vaccine education. Sometimes I teach young patients to draw their feelings instead of describing them.

Now, Belgian eco-designer Mathilde Wittock is making a mark in the realm of design. She ingeniously crafts unique furniture using waste tennis balls. As an enthusiastic tennis player herself, Wittock has witnessed firsthand the shocking waste of tennis balls. Each year, around 300 million tennis balls are produced, and unfortunately, the vast majority of them end up in landfills, taking over 400 years to be broken down. What’s more, the lifespan of a single tennis ball is remarkably short, typically lasting only about nine games. Wittock’s furniture pieces, such as sofas cushioned with 500 precisely arranged tennis balls and one-meter-long benches composed of 270 balls, are not only aesthetically (审美地) pleasing but also sturdy. It takes her approximately three to four weeks to construct a chair, which is priced at $2,900. Notably, every ball is delicately cut and dyed by hand. Wittock first discovered the design potential of tennis balls while studying at Central Saint Martins. Currently, she sources her materials through donations. For instance, the Federation of Wallonia in Brussels has provided her with 100,000 tennis balls. For Wittock, eco-design is all about circularity. At the end of her furniture’ s life cycle, the tennis balls can be easily recycled into bouncy playground mats. Looking ahead, her next objective is to expand her reach to the tens of thousands of tennis clubs in North America. So, the next time you see abandoned tennis balls, remember that their journey might just be starting anew. 5．What made Wittock reuse tennis balls? A．The wild popularity of tennis balls. B．The great influence of tennis balls. C．The low price to make tennis balls. D．The unbearable waste of tennis balls. 6．What can be inferred about Mathilde Wittock? A．She follows the existing trends in sustainable design. B．She relies heavily on advanced manufacturing technologies. C．She applies available resources to maintain her creative work. D．She focuses on the use of recycled materials more than the design. 7．What will happen to the tennis balls at the end of the furniture’s life cycle? A．They will be thrown away in landfills. B．They will be recycled as playground mats. C．They will be reused to make new tennis balls. D．They will be stored for future furniture-making. 8．What is the main idea of the passage? A．The process of making furniture from tennis balls. B．The problem of tennis ball waste and its solutions. C．The popularity of tennis and its influence on daily life. D．The creative green ways to give life to waste tennis balls. 【答案】5．D 6．C 7．B 8．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了比利时生态设计师Mathilde Wittock利用废弃网球制作独特家具，赋予废弃网球新生命。 5．细节理解题。根据第二段中“As an enthusiastic tennis player herself, Wittock has witnessed firsthand the shocking waste of tennis balls. Each year, around 300 million tennis balls are produced, and unfortunately, the vast majority of them end up in landfills, taking over 400 years to be broken down.(作为一名狂热的网球运动员，Wittock亲眼目睹了网球令人震惊的浪费。每年大约有3亿个网球被生产出来，不幸的是，其中绝大多数都被扔进了垃圾填埋场，需要400多年的时间才能被分解)”可知，正是这种令人震惊且难以忍受的浪费情况，促使Wittock决定对网球进行再利用。故选D。 6．推理判断题。根据第四段中“Currently, she sources her materials through donations. For instance, the Federation of Wallonia in Brussels has provided her with 100,000 tennis balls.(目前，她通过捐赠来获取素材。例如，布鲁塞尔的瓦隆尼亚联合会为她提供了10万个网球)”可知，Wittock获取制作家具的材料是通过接受捐赠的方式。比如布鲁塞尔的瓦隆尼亚联合会就给她提供了 10 万个网球，这说明她能够通过各种途径创造出可用的资源，以此来维持自己用废弃网球制作家具的创意工作。故选C。 7．细节理解题。根据第五段中“At the end of her furniture’s life cycle, the tennis balls can be easily recycled into bouncy playground mats. (在她的家具生命周期结束时，网球可以很容易地回收到有弹性的操场垫子上)”可知，在她设计的家具生命周期结束时，这些原本被用来制作家具的网球可以很容易地被回收，然后制成有弹性的操场垫子。故选B。 8．主旨大意题。文章开篇介绍了网球对生活的影响，接着引出比利时生态设计师Mathilde Wittock利用废弃网球制作家具的创意做法，然后阐述了她这么做的原因、家具的特点、材料来源以及未来规划等内容。整体围绕着如何通过创意绿色的方式赋予废弃网球新的生命展开，故选 D。 【密押点睛】 【长难句分析】 1.2."Each year, around 300 million tennis balls are produced, and unfortunately, the vast majority of them end up in landfills, [taking over 400 years to be broken down]."

Stanford SupplyHer, a student group supporting women’s health through art, hosted an event in partnership with United to Beat Malaria (UBM) to encourage funding for malaria prevention, treatment and research initiatives while tabling at White Plaza last Monday. “Knowing that malaria is especially dangerous to pregnant individuals and children makes advocacy for malaria funding and research essential for our mission,” said Bista. “We in the U. S. need to be aware of the impact of global warming on malaria because less developed countries in other parts of the world are more heavily affected by our emissions,” Bista said. Last year, the U. S. experienced its first local outbreaks of malaria since 2003. Infectious disease experts have warned that climate change will spread malaria and other diseases carried by mosquitoes to areas that were once free of malaria. This summer, after discovering the work of UBM, a global grassroots campaign of the UN Foundation, Bista met with her congressional (国会的) representatives to advocate for malaria treatment and research. To support continued funding for global malaria programs, Bista wrote to officials in Congress. “It’s easy for people to feel like they are powerless with issues as big as malaria. But any person can give input to their decision makers on issues as big as these,” wrote Macgan Cross, a senior advocate at UBM. “By sending messages to your elected officials in support of global health funding, you are making sure your voice is heard.” Bista encouraged students to become involved in initiatives on campus to spread awareness of malaria and other global health issues. “Global health is important to me because there are so many health inequities (不平等) around the world and health itself is important to live a fulfilling life,” Bista said. “Because there are so many health inequities around the world, I want to raise awareness and help people live fulfilling lives.” 9．What inspired Bista to engage in actions against malaria? A．A learning experience. B．A health crisis. C．A grassroots campaign. D．A tabling event. 10．What did Bista do to support malaria prevention? A．She organized a charity sale. B．She launched a research project. C．She campaigned for fundraising. D．She budgeted for malaria treatment. 11．What is the message Maegan Cross intends to convey? A．Community voices secure health funding. B．Malaria outbreaks are difficult to prevent. C．The public needs more knowledge about health. D．Individual efforts matter in government decisions. 12．Which of the following best describes Bista? A．A health advocate. B．A club founder. C．A woman pioneer. D．A disease specialist. 【答案】9．A 10．C 11．D 12．A 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了斯坦福大学的一个学生团体Stanford SupplyHer与United to Beat Malaria合作，在白广场举办活动，鼓励为疟疾的预防、治疗和研究计划提供资金的事情。 9．细节理解题。根据文章第一段“After taking an introductory course in global health last winter, Yashaswi Bista, president of Stanford SupplyHer, was empowered to take action against malaria —a disease that has been claiming hundreds of thousands of lives every year for centuries.(去年冬天，斯坦福大学“Stanford SupplyHer”组织的主席Yashaswi Bista在修完一门全球健康入门课程后，获得了采取行动抗击疟疾的动力。疟疾这种疾病在几个世纪以来，每年都夺走数十万人的生命。)”可知，启发Bista采取行动抗击疟疾的是一次学习经历。故选A。 10．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Stanford SupplyHer, a student group supporting women’s health through art, hosted an event in partnership with United to Beat Malaria(UBM)to encourage funding for malaria prevention, treatment and research initiatives while tabling at White Plaza last Monday.(“Stanford SupplyHer”是一个通过艺术来支持女性健康的学生团体。上周一，该团体与“联合抗击疟疾”组织合作，在怀特广场设摊举办了一场活动，旨在鼓励为疟疾的预防、治疗和研究项目提供资金支持。)”可知，Bista所在的组织与“联合抗击疟疾”组织合作举办活动，鼓励为疟疾的预防、治疗和研究项目提供资金支持。由此可知，Bista为支持疟疾预防所做的是为筹款进行宣传活动。故选C。 11．推理判断题。根据文章第四段““It’s easy for people to feel like they are powerless with issues as big as malaria. But any person can give input to their decision makers on issues as big as these,” wrote Macgan Cross, a senior advocate at UBM. “By sending messages to your elected officials in support of global health funding, you are making sure your voice is heard.”(“联合抗击疟疾”组织的资深倡导者Macgan Cross写道：“面对像疟疾这样重大的问题，人们很容易觉得自己无能为力。但在这类重大问题上，任何人都可以向决策者表达自己的意见。通过向你选出的官员发送支持全球卫生事业资金投入的信息，你就能确保自己的声音被听到。”)”可知，Maegan Cross认为面对像疟疾这样重大的问题，人们很容易觉得自己无能为力，但实际上任何人都可以就这类重大问题向决策者表达自己的意见，通过向当选官员发送支持全球卫生事业资金投入的信息，就能确保自己的声音被听到。所以Maegan Cross想要传达的信息是个人努力在政府决策中很重要。故选D。 12．推理判断题。根据文章内容可知，Bista在修完全球健康入门课程后，积极采取行动抗击疟疾。她所在的组织与“联合抗击疟疾”组织合作举办活动，鼓励为疟疾的预防、治疗和研究项目提供资金支持；她会见国会议员，为疟疾的治疗和研究进行呼吁；还写信给国会议员，支持对全球疟疾防治项目持续提供资金，并鼓励学生们参与校园里提高人们对疟疾和其他全球健康问题认识的活动。这些行为都表明她是健康问题尤其是抗击疟疾方面的倡导者。故选A。 Passage 6 主题语境：人与自然--户外探索 词数：268+116 考点预测：细节理解题。 押题指数：★★★★ I can’t believe I’m doing this! It’s 4:30 in the morning, pitch black and freezing cold. Nevertheless I find myself getting out of bed and getting dressed. A car horn sounds as I’m putting on a thick coat and wrapping a scarf around me. I grab a hat and join Jim in his car. He doesn’t seem to mind it’s cold and dark. In fact, he’ s smiling. “You’re going to love this,” he says as we drive off to the nearest park. I’m not so sure. At any opportunity Jim will be watching quietly, and sometimes excitedly, through his telescope at a bird. Don’t get me wrong. I like birds, but I just don’t get as crazy about them as Jim. Recently, when he found out that I had never heard the dawn chorus, he insisted that we meet at this unearthly hour and head for the local park. So here we are. Luckily Jim has brought hot coffee and a warm carpet to sit on. After ten shivering minutes there is a very faint light over the eastern side of the park, a suggestion of the day ahead. “Listen,” whispers Jim. I listen, nothing. Then clearly and loudly a bird starts singing. “That’s the robin (知更鸟). He’s usually the first.” After a few seconds another bird joins in “A blackbird” and then another “A blue bird”. It’s amazing. Twenty minutes later the whole park is alive with the chorus, calling, singing of birds! And yes, it’s wonderful! The noise is incredible. The lighter the sky becomes, the louder the birds sing, an incredible birds’ concert. “Wow, so are they singing because they’re happy?” I ask in disbelief. “Not really,” Jim laughs, “in fact they’re hungry but they need to do two things. One is to defend their territory and the other is to find a female–by singing they can achieve both.” Jim sees my puzzled face and explains. We listen together for a while and then slowly but surely, as the sun emerges above the trees, the birds stop singing. “Now it’s light enough to find food, and that’s the end of the show today.” 4．What is the author’s initial attitude to the early outing? A．Cautious. B．Reluctant. C．Passionate. D．Indifferent. 5．What makes the author involved in the activity? A．Jim’s insistence on it. B．Jim’s enthusiasm on birds. C．The author’s interest in chorus. D．The author’s curiosity about birds. 6．What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A．The singing skills of birds. B．The abundant diversity of birds. C．Various tunes of the “dawn chorus”. D．Lively scenes of the “dawn chorus”. 7．Why do birds sing at dawn according to Jim? A．To guard the land and attract mates. B．To show off their beautiful voices. C．To extend welcome to the sunrise. D．To fight fiercely for early worms. 【答案】4．B 5．A 6．D 7．A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者与Jim在凌晨时分前往公园聆听鸟鸣的经历，包括他们的行动、感受等。 4．推理判断题。根据文章第一段“I can’t believe I’m doing this! It’s 4:30 in the morning, pitch black and freezing cold. Nevertheless I find myself getting out of bed and getting dressed.(真不敢相信我居然在做这种事！现在是凌晨 4 点半，四周漆黑一片，冷得刺骨。尽管如此，我还是起了床，开始穿衣服)”以及““You’re going to love this,” he says as we drive off to the nearest park. I’m not so sure.(“你会喜欢这次经历的。”我们开车前往最近的公园时，他这样说道。可我心里没底)”可知，作者最初对这次早起外出的态度是不情愿的。故选B。 5．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Recently, when he found out that I had never heard the dawn chorus, he insisted that we meet at this unearthly hour and head for the local park.(最近，当他发现我从未听过清晨的鸟鸣大合唱时，他坚持要我们在这个不合常理的时间碰面，然后前往当地的公园)”可知，作者原本并不想去这么早去公园听鸟鸣，是因为Jim发现作者从未听过清晨的鸟鸣大合唱后，坚持要在这个不合理的时间碰面并前往当地公园，所以作者才参与了这次活动。故选A。 6．主旨大意题。根据文章第四段““Listen,” whispers Jim. I listen, nothing. Then clearly and loudly a bird starts singing. “That’s the robin (知更鸟). He’s usually the first.” After a few seconds another bird joins in “A blackbird” and then another “A blue bird”. It’s amazing. Twenty minutes later the whole park is alive with the chorus, calling, singing of birds! And yes, it’s wonderful! The noise is incredible. The lighter the sky becomes, the louder the birds sing, an incredible birds’ concert.(“听。”Jim轻声说道。我听了听，什么也没听到。接着，一只鸟清晰而响亮地开始歌唱。“那是知更鸟。它通常是第一个开口的。”几秒钟后，另一只鸟也加入了进来。“是乌鸫。”然后又有一只鸟唱起了歌。“是蓝鸲。”太不可思议了。二十分钟后，整个公园都回荡着鸟儿的大合唱，它们的叫声、歌声此起彼伏！没错，这太美妙了！这声音震耳欲聋。天空越来越亮，鸟儿们唱得也越来越响亮，简直就是一场令人难以置信的鸟类音乐会)”可知，第四段主要描述了从一开始作者什么都没听到，到一只知更鸟开始歌唱，接着乌鸫、蓝鸲等鸟儿陆续加入，二十分钟后整个公园都充满了鸟儿的合唱声，天空越亮鸟儿唱得越响亮，就像一场令人难以置信的鸟类音乐会。故选D。 7．细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段““Not really,” Jim laughs, “in fact they’re hungry but they need to do two things. One is to defend their territory and the other is to find a female–by singing they can achieve both.” Jim sees my puzzled face and explains.(“不完全是，”Jim笑着说，“事实上，它们饿了，但它们需要做两件事。一是保卫自己的领地，二是寻找配偶——通过唱歌，它们可以同时达成这两个目的。”Jim看到我一脸困惑，便解释道)”可知，Jim解释说鸟儿在黎明唱歌，一是为了保卫它们的领地，二是为了找到配偶，通过唱歌它们可以同时实现这两个目的。故选A。 押题猜想三：说明文阅读（科普/社会现象深度解析） 限时：8min （深度改编） 主题语境：人与社会--人际关系 词数：347+117 考点预测：细节理解题、词义猜测题。 Research has found that loneliness and social isolation are associated with an increased risk of conditions like anxiety, depression, heart disease, and stroke. In fact, a 2010 analysis found that loneliness is as harmful to physical health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day — meaning using friendship to reduce loneliness is good for you. But how many friends should you have? According to Jeffrey Hall, a professor of communication studies at the University of Kansas, if you want to ease the health impacts of loneliness, the most important thing you can do is to have at least one important person in your life. But if you want to have the most meaningful life, one where you feel very bonded and connected to others, more friends are better. Some research endorses his remarks. One study from 2016 found that those with at least six friends have better health throughout their lives, and a study from 2020 found that middle-aged women who have at least three friends typically have higher levels of overall satisfaction with their lives. To figure out whether you need more friends in your life, psychologist Marisa Franco recommends asking yourself, “Do I feel lonely?” Loneliness is sort of an alarm system. While everyone feels lonely sometimes, you should determine whether you feel left out or isolated regularly. Franco also recommends asking yourself if there are parts of your identity that you feel are restricted. “Different people bring out different parts of us. So when you have a large friend group, you’re able to experience this side of yourself that loves basketball, and that side of yourself that loves flowers,” Franco said. “If you’re not feeling quite like yourself, that might indicate you need different types of friends.” Since making new friends can be difficult, Franco said it’s often easier to rekindle old relationships. She added that you should take the initiative and not assume that friendships will naturally happen. “Ultimately, there ‘isn’t a magic number’ of friends for everyone,” Hall said. “Your personality and the characteristics of your life are going to make a difference.” 1. What does the research suggest about loneliness? A. It increases physical health risks. B. It affects smokers more seriously. C. It requires medical treatment. D. It leads to fewer social connections. 2. What does Jeffrey Hall emphasize for reducing loneliness? A. Having three close friends. B. Attending social events regularly. C. Maintaining one meaningful relationship. D. Building a large online friend network. 3. What does the underlined word “endorses” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Challenges. B. Supports. C. Ignores. D. Repeats. 4. What is the main conclusion about the number of friends? A. Six friends ensure lifelong health. B. Personality determines friendship needs. C. Old friendships are always the best. D. More friends guarantee higher satisfaction. 答案：1. A 2. C 3. B 4. B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是研究表明，好朋友能提高生活满意度和健康水平，心理学家建议多交朋友以抵御排斥感或孤立感，并更好地展现自我。 1.根据文章第一句 “Research has found that loneliness and social isolation are associated with an increased risk of conditions like anxiety, depression, heart disease, and stroke.” 可知，研究发现孤独和社交孤立与焦虑、抑郁、心脏病和中风等疾病的风险增加有关，即孤独会增加身体健康风险，所以答案选 A。 2.根据第二段 “According to Jeffrey Hall...if you want to ease the health impacts of loneliness, the most important thing you can do is to have at least one important person in your life.” 可知，Jeffrey Hall 认为，若想减轻孤独对健康的影响，最重要的是在生活中有至少一个重要的人，也就是维持一段有意义的关系，答案选 C。 3.第三段第一句 “Some research endorses his remarks.” 是段落主旨句，后面的内容 “One study from 2016 found that...and a study from 2020 found that...” 分别列举了两项研究结果，都是对 Jeffrey Hall 观点的支持，说明 “endorses” 的意思是 “支持”，答案选 B。 4.根据最后一段 “Ultimately, there ‘isn’t a magic number’ of friends for everyone,” Hall said. “Your personality and the characteristics of your life are going to make a difference.” 可知，对于每个人来说，朋友的数量没有一个神奇的数字，个人的性格和生活特点会影响对朋友数量的需求，答案选 B。 押题解读 说明文在新高考英语试卷中出现频率较高，一般一套试卷2-3篇知识性和逻辑性强，内容新颖，兼顾日常生活相关的主题和科普、研究类主题。近三年新高考英语阅读理解说明文考情统计如下： 2024年新高考I，C篇---主题语境：人与自我，主题内容：文章主要介绍了纸质阅读与数字阅读、音频和视频学习方式的差异和效果。 2024年新高考II，C篇---主题语境：人与自然，主题内容：介绍了巴比伦微农场（BMF）的一些主要优势，，包括减少食物运输距离、通过云技术远程监控、自动化系统节约水资源、减少化学污染、以及员工的环保生活方式等。 2024年新高考II，D篇---主题语境：人与自我，主题内容：介绍了Catriona Campbell所著AI by Design: A Plan for Living with Artificial Intelligence一书。 2023年新高考I，C篇---主题语境：人与自我，主题内容：数字极简主义生活方式。 2023年新高考I，D篇---主题语境：人与社会，主题内容：“群体智慧”效应。 2023年新高考II，C篇---主题语境：人与社会，主题内容：书籍介绍。 2023年新高考II，D篇---主题语境：人与自然，主题内容：接触自然有益健康。 2022年新高考I，C篇---主题语境：人与社会，主题内容：养老院养鸡项目。 2022年新高考I，D篇---主题语境：人与社会，主题内容：饮食结构影响语音。 2022年新高考II，C篇---主题语境：人与社会，主题内容：司机无视禁用手机禁令。 2022年新高考II，D篇---主题语境：人与自我，主题内容：运动可以促进心脏健康。、 押题01主题语境：人与社会， 主题内容：良好的人际关系。考查题型：细节理解题3题，词义猜测题1题。 押题02主题语境：人与自然， 主题内容：气候变化对世界鸟类物种。人与自然话题是高考英语立德树人的具体表现。 Passage 1 （深度改编） 主题语境：人与自然--气候变化对世界鸟类物种 词数：268+116 考点预测：细节理解题。 押题指数：★★★★★ Climate change is having a far-reaching and significant impact on the world's bird species, with a new study revealing that many are shrinking（收缩）in size. This research provides crucial insights into the complex relationship between birds and their changing environment. Researchers from multiple famous universities, such as the University of Guelph and the University of Michigan, carefully examined data on nearly 80,000 individual birds from 52 species across North America. Their in-depth study covered a span（跨度）of over 40 years. During this period, as the global climate continued to warm, with average temperatures steadily rising, a remarkable trend emerged: the birds, on average, became smaller. In addition to the decrease in body size, the birds' wingspans have also increased slightly. Scientists believe this is an adaptation mechanism. In warmer conditions, a larger wingspan can help birds generate more lift with less effort, enabling them to migrate more flexibly in long distances. The study's lead author, Dr. Ryan Norris, noted that the changes in bird size and wingspan are highly likely a direct response to climate change. “Birds are highly sensitive to environmental changes, and these findings suggest that they are evolving in response to rising temperatures,” he said. “Smaller body size may help birds regulate their body temperature more effectively in warmer climates, while the increase in wingspan could aid in their ability to find food and mates over larger areas as habitats shift.” However, the researchers also cautioned that these changes could have negative consequences for some bird species. For instance, smaller-bodied songbirds may have less energy reserves to bear the delicate balance of competition for resources. A bird with an altered wingspan might find it more difficult to compete with its peers for limited food sources or nesting sites. Additionally, the new wingspan characteristics could also impact their ability to avoid predators（捕食者）, as the predator-prey dynamics are often based on the birds' original physical characteristics. 1. What is the main finding of the new study? A. Birds are migrating earlier each year. B. Bird species are becoming more diverse. C. Birds are shrinking in size due to climate change. D. Bird habitats are expanding globally. 2. What change in birds’ wingspan did researchers observe? A. A slight increase. B. A significant decrease. C. No noticeable change. D. Complete disappearance. D.3. What does the underlined word “evolving” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Disappearing. B. Changing. C. Struggling. D. Competing. 4. What concern do researchers have about smaller-bodied birds? A. They may lose their migration ability. B. Their food sources will increase rapidly. C. Their nesting sites could become overcrowded. D. They might face resource competition challenges. 【答案】1．C 2．A 3．B 4．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了气候变化对世界鸟类物种产生了深远而重大的影响，研究发现许多鸟类的体型在变小，翼展在增加，以及这些变化可能带来的影响。 1. 答案：C 解析：文章开篇提到 “Climate change is having a far - reaching and significant impact on the world's bird species, with a new study revealing that many are shrinking（收缩）in size.”，直接表明新研究的主要发现是由于气候变化，鸟类的体型在变小，所以选 C。 2. 答案：A 解析：根据文中 “the birds' wingspans have also increased slightly” 可知，研究人员观察到鸟类的翼展有轻微增加，故选 A。 3. 答案：B 解析：“evolving” 所在句子 “Birds are highly sensitive to environmental changes, and these findings suggest that they are evolving in response to rising temperatures”，结合上下文，鸟类对环境变化敏感，在气温上升的情况下，它们会做出改变来适应，“evolving” 在此处意为 “改变”，与 “changing” 意思相近，故选 B。 4. 答案：D 解析：由 “However, the researchers also cautioned that these changes could have negative consequences for some bird species. For instance, smaller - bodied songbirds may have less energy reserves to bear the delicate balance of competition for resources.” 可知，研究人员担心体型变小的鸟类可能面临资源竞争的挑战，因为它们能量储备更少，更难以在资源竞争中维持平衡，故选 D。 【密押点睛】 【长难句分析】 1. "In warmer conditions, a larger wingspan can help birds generate more lift with less effort, [enabling them to migrate more flexibly in long distances.]" 翻译：在更温暖的环境中，更大的翼展可以帮助鸟类以更少的努力产生更多升力，使它们能够更灵活地进行长距离迁徙。 结构分析： 核心主干：A larger wingspan can help birds generate lift. 分词状语： enabling...：现在分词短语作结果状语，说明主句动作“generate lift”带来的结果（使鸟类迁徙更灵活）。 介词短语： "with less effort"（方式状语修饰“generate”）； "in long distances"（地点状语修饰“migrate”）。 2. "Additionally, the new wingspan characteristics could also impact their ability to avoid predators, [as the predator-prey dynamics are often based on the birds' original physical characteristics.]" 翻译：此外，新的翼展特征也可能影响它们躲避捕食者的能力，因为捕食者与猎物之间的动态关系通常基于鸟类原有的身体特征。 结构分析： 核心主干：Characteristics could impact their ability. 从句修饰： as...：原因状语从句，解释主句现象（翼展变化影响躲避能力）的原因。 关键修饰： "to avoid predators"：不定式短语作后置定语，修饰“ability”； "based on... characteristics"：过去分词短语作表语，说明“dynamics”的依据。 Passage 2 主题语境：人与社会 子话题：科技进步及其局限性 词数：350+148 考点预测：细节理解题、推理判断题、词义猜测题。 押题指数：★★★★★ A machine can now not only play a perfect game of chess but also write poetry that matches the greats. Last month, in a poetry competition in New York City, an AI named Poet Bot impressed the judges, outperforming several well-known poets, including Sarah Johnson, a Pulitzer Prize-winning poet. This showed the remarkable advancements in artificial intelligence. Brilliant as it is, Poet Bot has limitations. It constructs lines by selecting phrases from its database of poems and combining them in ways that follow poetic forms. This method can sometimes produce meaningless lines that no human poet would write. For example, Poet Bot might put together phrases that sound poetic but lack clear emotional depth. These issues will likely be fixed over time, but they highlight a deeper challenge. As Dr. Emily Rivera, a professor at Yale University, explained, “The system lacks an understanding of the emotions and experiences behind the words.” She noted that while Poet Bot can generate structurally sound poetry, it often misses the slight details that make human poetry impactful. What Dr. Rivera refers to is the essence of human creativity, which separates even the least skilled human poet from the most advanced AI. A computer processes symbols according to programmed rules, transforming inputs into outputs without understanding their significance. For humans, however, writing poetry is an expression of emotion. The arrangement of words in a poem is not just about their order but about the feelings they convey. This is why human poets can bring out deep emotions and connect with readers on a personal level, something that Poet Bot, despite its technical skills, struggles to achieve. Creativity arises from emotional interactions, not just computational processes. These experiences shape symbols in our minds, and the cultural and social contexts in which we live give them depth. This difference ensures that, despite Poet Bot’s abilities, the art of poetry — rooted in the times of Homer and Li Bai — will remain a unique human effort. As technology advances, AI may assist human creativity but will never replace the richness of human experience that fuels artistic expression. 8．Why does the author mention Sarah Johnson in paragraph 1? A．To discuss the design of Poet Bot. B．To highlight the success of Poet Bot. C．To explain the competition’s rules. D．To introduce a judge of the competition. 9．What does the underlined word “limitations” in paragraph 2 refer to? A．Features. B．Strengths. C．Shortcomings. D．Goals. 10．What is Poet Bot unable to do according to Dr. Rivera? A．Understand emotions. B．Select phrases. C．Follow poetic forms. D．Stick to rules. 11．What can we learn from the last paragraph? A．Cultural contexts are irrelevant to poetry. B．AI will soon overtake human poets in creativity. C．Machines will eventually understand human emotions. D．Human creativity is deeply rooted in personal experiences. 【答案】8．B 9．C 10．A 11．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讨论了AI在诗歌创作中的成就及其局限性，强调人类创造力的独特性。 8．推理判断题。根据第一段的句子“Last month, in a poetry competition in New York City, an AI named Poet Bot impressed the judges, outperforming several well-known poets, including Sarah Johnson, a Pulitzer Prize-winning poet. This showed the remarkable advancements in artificial intelligence.(上个月，在纽约市举行的一场诗歌比赛中，一个名为Poet Bot的人工智能给评委留下了深刻的印象，它的表现超过了几位知名诗人，包括普利策奖得主Sarah Johnson。这显示了人工智能的显著进步。)”可知，提到Sarah Johnson是为了突出Poet Bot的成功。故选B项。 9．词句猜测题。根据划线单词下文的句子“It constructs lines by selecting phrases from its database of poems and combining them in ways that follow poetic forms. This method can sometimes produce meaningless lines that no human poet would write. For example, Poet Bot might put together phrases that sound poetic but lack clear emotional depth.(它通过从其诗歌数据库中选择短语，并按照诗歌形式将它们组合起来来构建句子。这种方法有时会产生没有人类诗人会写的无意义的诗句。例如，Poet Bot可能会将一些听起来富有诗意但缺乏明确情感深度的短语组合在一起)”可知，Poet Bot写的诗有一些不足之处，所以，limitations指的是Poet Bot的不足之处。故选C项。 10．细节理解题。根据第三段中的句子“The system lacks an understanding of the emotions and experiences behind the words.(该系统缺乏对文字背后的情感和体验的理解)”可知，Poet Bot无法理解情感。故选A项。 11．推理判断题。根据最后一段中的句子“Creativity arises from emotional interactions, not just computational processes. These experiences shape symbols in our minds, and the cultural and social contexts in which we live give them depth.(创造力源于情感互动，而不仅仅是计算过程。这些经历塑造了我们脑海中的符号，我们生活的文化和社会背景赋予了它们深度)”可知，人类创造力深深植根于个人经历。故选D项。 【密押点睛】 【长难句分析】 ​1.

Researchers need to work out the scale of the problem and how those who need assistance can be helped. Nearly one billion people worldwide — including one in seven teenagers — have a mental disorder. A growing number of studies suggest that climate change is worsening people’s mental health and emotional well-being. Extreme heatwaves, droughts, floods and fires fuelled by climate change cause suffering, mental illness and depression. In a recent survey of people aged 16 — 35 in 10 countries, nearly 60% of respondents were highly worried about climate change, and more than 45% said their feelings about climate change affected their daily lives. Such reactions to an existential threat are expected, and many people can handle these feelings on their own — but some need specialist help. Researchers and governments need better ways to measure the extent of climate change’s effects on mental health. Data scientists, and climate scientists should join mental-health researchers in helping those in need. Mental-health professionals also need training and support to provide help. One key challenge for researchers is measuring the mental-health burden due to climate change and tracking it over time. Most researches so far have been conducted in high-income countries, despite low-and middle-income countries experiencing the hardest effects of the warming planet. The good news is that some steps are already being taken. Researchers are, for instance, trying to develop global mental-health measurements that can be linked to weather and climate data. They also suggest that individuals need to know that their feelings like anxiety or anger are normal — and if they can keep their unease at bay and then take action to combat climate change, they could help themselves and the world: a double win. 12．What does the survey mentioned in paragraph 2 show? A．Mental health is a major global concern. B．Extreme disasters arise from climate change. C．Climate change influences mental well-being. D．Teenagers easily suffer from mental disorder. 13．What are specialists expected to do? A．Improve mental illness treatment. B．Provide further training and support. C．Work jointly to offer help to the needy. D．Guide people to handle feelings alone. 14．What does the author imply in the fourth paragraph? A．It’s hard to find out the impact of climate change. B．Income influences the process of global warming. C．The result of former researches may not be reliable. D．Economy develops at a considerable cost of our planet. 15．Which of the following is the best title for the text? A．Tips on Maintaining Mental Well-Being B．Key Challenges in Managing Eco-Anxiety C．Low-Income Countries, Victims of Global Warming D．Higher Temperatures, More Depression Sufferers 【答案】12．C 13．C 14．C 15．D 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了全球变暖加剧了人们的精神疾病和抑郁症，气候变化对人们的心理健康产生了不良影响，研究人员需要确定问题的严重程度以及如何帮助有需要的人，同时也提到了目前已经采取的一些措施。 12．细节理解题。根据第二段中“A growing number of studies suggest that climate change is worsening people’s mental health and emotional well-being. Extreme heatwaves, droughts, floods and fires fuelled by climate change cause suffering, mental illness and depression. In a recent survey of people aged 16—35 in 10 countries, nearly 60% of respondents were highly worried about climate change, and more than 45% said their feelings about climate change affected their daily lives. (越来越多的研究表明，气候变化正在恶化人们的心理健康和情绪状态。由气候变化引发的极端热浪、干旱、洪水和火灾会导致痛苦、精神疾病和抑郁症。在最近一项对10个国家16至35岁人群的调查中，近60%的受访者非常担心气候变化，超过45%的人表示他们对气候变化的感受影响了他们的日常生活。)”可知在最近一项对10个国家16至35岁人群的调查中，近60%的受访者非常担心气候变化，超过45%的人表示他们对气候变化的感受影响了他们的日常生活，所以第二段提到的调查表明气候变化影响了人们的心理健康。故选C项。 13．细节理解题。根据第三段中“Researchers and governments need better ways to measure the extent of climate change’s effects on mental health. Data scientists, and climate scientists should join mental-health researchers in helping those in need. Mental-health professionals also need training and support to provide help. (研究人员和政府需要更好的方法来衡量气候变化对心理健康的影响程度。数据科学家和气候科学家应该与心理健康研究人员一起帮助有需要的人。心理健康专业人员也需要培训和支持来提供帮助.)”可知，数据科学家和气候科学家应该与心理健康研究人员一起帮助有需要的人，也就是说专家们被期望共同努力为有需要的人提供帮助。故选C项。 14．推理判断题。根据第四段中“One key challenge for researchers is measuring the mental-health burden due to climate change and tracking it over time. Most researches so far have been conducted in high-income countries, despite low-and middle-income countries experiencing the hardest effects of the warming planet. (研究人员面临的一个关键挑战是衡量气候变化造成的心理健康负担，并随着时间的推移对其进行跟踪。到目前为止，大多数研究都是在高收入国家进行的，尽管低收入和中等收入国家正经历着全球变暖最严重的影响。)”可知，大部分研究在高收入国家进行，而受全球变暖影响最大的却是低收入和中等收入国家，所以可以推断出以前的研究结果可能不可靠。故选C项。 15．主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“The warming planet is worsening mental illness and depression. (全球变暖正在加剧精神疾病和抑郁症。)”、第二段“A growing number of studies suggest that climate change is worsening people’s mental health and emotional well-being. Extreme heatwaves, droughts, floods and fires fuelled by climate change cause suffering, mental illness and depression. In a recent survey of people aged 16 — 35 in 10 countries, nearly 60% of respondents were highly worried about climate change, and more than 45% said their feelings about climate change affected their daily lives.

Data scientists, and climate scientists should join mental-health researchers in helping those in need. Mental-health professionals also need training and support to provide help. (研究人员和政府需要更好的方法来衡量气候变化对心理健康的影响程度。数据科学家和气候科学家应该与心理健康研究人员一起帮助有需要的人。心理健康专业人员也需要培训和支持来提供帮助。)”以及最后一段“The good news is that some steps are already being taken. Researchers are, for instance, trying to develop global mental-health measurements that can be linked to weather and climate data. They also suggest that individuals need to know that their feelings like anxiety or anger are normal — and if they can keep their unease at bay and then take action to combat climate change, they could help themselves and the world: a double win. (好消息是，已经采取了一些措施。例如，研究人员正试图开发可以与天气和气候数据相关联的全球心理健康测量方法。他们还建议，人们需要知道焦虑或愤怒等感受是正常的——如果他们能够控制自己的不安，然后采取行动应对气候变化，他们既能帮助自己，也能帮助世界：这是一个双赢的局面。)”可知，文章开篇提到全球变暖正在加剧精神疾病和抑郁症，接着讲述了气候变化对人们心理健康的影响，以及研究人员面临的挑战和已经采取的措施等内容，D选项“Higher Temperatures, More Depression Sufferers (温度越高，抑郁症患者越多)”最能概括文章主旨，可作为文章标题。故选D项。 【密押点睛】 【长难句分析】 1."They also suggest that individuals need to know that their feelings like anxiety or anger are normal — [and if they can keep their unease at bay and then take action to combat climate change], [they could help themselves and the world: a double win.]" 翻译：他们还建议，个人需要知道他们的焦虑或愤怒等情绪是正常的——如果他们能够控制不安并采取行动应对气候变化，他们既能帮助自己，也能帮助世界：这是一场双赢。 结构分析： 核心主干：They suggest that... and they could help... 嵌套从句： 第一层：that individuals need to know（宾语从句，作suggest的宾语）。 第二层：that their feelings... are normal（宾语从句，嵌套在know后）。 条件状语从句： if they can keep... and take action... 引导条件状语，修饰主句“they could help...”。 同位语： a double win 解释前文“help themselves and the world”的结果。 语法难点： 多重从句嵌套（宾语从句+条件状语从句）。 破折号引导的补充说明与同位语结构。 2.

In 2023, an estimated 40,990 people died in car crashes in the U.S., with millions more injured in nonfatal collisions (碰撞). These crashes often result from human errors, such as drunk drive, distraction, or misjudgment. Despite efforts to mitigate these errors through traffic enforcement and safer road design, human mistakes remain a major issue. Self-driving cars, like those developed by Waymo, offer a promising solution. Waymo’s robotaxis have driven 33 million miles, primarily in San Francisco and Phoenix, and have been involved in 62% fewer police-reported crashes, 78% fewer injury-causing crashes, and 81% fewer severe crashes compared to human-driven cars. These figures might even understate the safety benefits, as other drivers are often partially responsible for collisions with autonomous vehicles. While incidents like the Cruise robotaxi accident, where a human driver hit a passer-by who was then dragged by the autonomous vehicle, raise concerns, human drivers also cause terrible accidents. The key question is whether autonomous vehicles are safer overall and can be made even safer through careful monitoring and innovation. Data from California shows that most crashes involving Waymo and Cruise vehicles were low-speed and often caused by other drivers. Although it’s too early to determine the full impact of self-driving cars on fatal crashes, the potential for reducing human error is significant. As more autonomous vehicles hit the road, the number of crashes caused by human drivers could decrease, leading to broader societal benefits, including reduced healthcare costs and fewer legal issues related to traffic accidents. The Autonomous Vehicle Industry Association has proposed a policy framework to speed the adoption of self-driving cars, advocating for clear federal guidelines and a national safety data base. While autonomous driving technology is still in its beginning and faces challenges like navigating snow and ice, policymakers should work to remove regulatory barriers and ensure safety standards are met. In conclusion, while human drivers won’t disappear soon, self-driving cars have the potential to significantly improve road safety and reduce the economic and social costs of traffic accidents. 12．What does the underlined word “mitigate” in paragraph 1 mean? A．Ease. B．Expand. C．Explain. D．Embrace. 13．What can we infer from Waymo’s robotaxi data? A．Robotaxis are unbelievably safe. B．They are safer than human-driven cars. C．They might cause more severe crashes. D．Other drivers are unlikely to hit robotaxis. 14．What is one challenge mentioned for self-driving cars? A．They cannot operate in big cities. B．They are not accepted by the public. C．They are too expensive to produce. D．They may struggle in snow and ice. 15．What does the author imply in the last paragraph? A．Self-driving technologies have brought about profits environmentally. B．Human drivers will be replaced by self-driving cars in the near future. C．Policymakers should focus on developing self-driving technologies. D．Self-driving cars have a promising future with great benefits. 【答案】12．A 13．B 14．D 15．D 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了自动驾驶汽车的优势和劣势。 12．词义猜测题。根据第一段划线单词句中“These crashes often result from human errors, such as drunk drive, distraction, or misjudgment. Despite efforts to mitigate these errors through traffic enforcement and safer road design, human mistakes remain a major issue.( 这些事故通常是人为失误造成的，比如酒后驾驶、注意力分散或判断失误。尽管努力通过交通执法和更安全的道路设计来mitigate这些错误，但人为错误仍然是主要问题)”可知，通过交通执法和更安全的道路设计是为了减轻或缓解人为错误带来的影响，“ease”有“减轻；缓解”的意思，符合语境。故选A项。 13．推理判断题。根据第二段中“Waymo’s robotaxis have driven 33 million miles, primarily in San Francisco and Phoenix, and have been involved in 62% fewer police-reported crashes, 78% fewer injury-causing crashes, and 81% fewer severe crashes compared to human-driven cars.( Waymo的无人驾驶出租车已经行驶了3300万英里，主要在旧金山和凤凰城，与人类驾驶的汽车相比，警方报告的撞车事故减少了62%，造成伤害的撞车事故减少了78%，严重撞车事故减少了81%)”可知，Waymo的自动驾驶出租车与人类驾驶的汽车相比，涉及的警方报告的碰撞事故少62%，造成伤害的碰撞事故少78%，严重碰撞事故少81%。由此可以推断出它们比人类驾驶的汽车更安全。故选B项。 14．细节理解题。根据第五段中“While autonomous driving technology is still in its beginning and faces challenges like navigating snow and ice, policymakers should work to remove regulatory barriers and ensure safety standards are met.(虽然自动驾驶技术仍处于起步阶段，面临着在冰雪中导航等挑战，但政策制定者应该努力消除监管障碍，确保达到安全标准)”可知，自动驾驶技术仍处于起步阶段，面临着像在冰雪中行驶这样的挑战。故选D项。 15．推理判断题。根据最后一段“In conclusion, while human drivers won’t disappear soon, self-driving cars have the potential to significantly improve road safety and reduce the economic and social costs of traffic accidents.( 总之，虽然人类驾驶员不会很快消失，但自动驾驶汽车有可能显著改善道路安全，降低交通事故的经济和社会成本)”可知，虽然人类司机不会很快消失，但自动驾驶汽车有很大潜力显著提高道路安全，并减少交通事故的经济和社会成本。这意味着自动驾驶汽车有一个充满希望的未来，有很大的好处。故选D项。 【密押点睛】 【长难句分析】 1. While incidents like the Cruise robotaxi accident, where a human driver hit a passer-by who was then dragged by the autonomous vehicle, raise concerns, human drivers also cause terrible accidents. 句子结构：这是一个复合句，句子主干是“human drivers also terrible cause accidents”，前面有“While...”引导的让步状语从句。 让步状语从句：“While”引导让步状语从句，说明尽管存在像Cruise自动驾驶出租车事故这样的事件，但人类司机也会引发可怕的事故。 “where ”是定语从句，修饰“the Cruise robotaxi accident”，说明事故的具体情况。 “who was then dragged ”是定语从句，修饰“a passer-by”，进一步说明被撞击的行人被自动驾驶车辆拖拽的情况。 翻译：尽管像Cruise自动驾驶出租车事故（一名人类司机撞到一名行人，该行人随后被自动驾驶车辆拖拽）这样的事件引发了担忧，但人类司机也会引发可怕的事故。 2. As more autonomous vehicles hit the road, the number of crashes caused by human drivers could decrease, leading to broader societal benefits, including reduced healthcare costs and fewer legal issues related to traffic accidents. 句子结构：这是一个复合句，主句是“the number of crashes caused by human drivers could decrease”，前面有“As...”引导的时间状语从句，后面有“leading to...”现在分词短语作结果状语。 时间状语从句：“As more autonomous vehicles hit the road”是时间状语从句，表示“随着更多的自动驾驶汽车上路”。 结果状语：“leading to ...”是现在分词短语作结果状语，说明人类驾驶导致的事故数量减少所带来的结果。 “including ...”是介词短语作插入语，具体说明“broader societal benefits”包括哪些内容。 翻译：随着更多的自动驾驶汽车上路，由人类司机造成的事故数量可能会减少，从而带来更广泛的社会效益，包括降低医疗成本和减少与交通事故相关的法律问题。 Passage 5 主题语境：人与社会--城市设计 词数：355+108 考点预测：推理判断题、主旨大意题。 押题指数：★★★★ Floods are becoming more and more common around the world. Could the way that cities are growing be making things worse? Could we design cities in a different way to reduce the risk of flooding? As cities expand, and more land is underneath concrete, less water is absorbed and more needs to be channelled away by sewerage (下水道) systems. As they become overloaded by the volume of water, the risk of flash flooding increases. Could it be that we’ve been taking the wrong approach? Chinese landscape architect Yu Kongjian certainly thinks so. In 2013, he proposed the concept of “sponge (海绵) cities”, designed to absorb water — like a sponge — reducing the risk of sudden floods. Natural solutions are encouraged, using riverside parks and ponds to absorb floodwater. Approaches inspired by this have been taken by cities across the world. Auckland, in New Zealand, was named the spongiest city in one study. It has replaced the concrete culverts (地下排水) around the Oakley stream with green banks and connected parks. This has reduced flooding as well as the amount of associated contamination which used to be washed into the sea. A much more high-tech method can be seen in Amsterdam. The city has installed blue-green roofs on a number of buildings. These roofs have a layer of plants on the outside, and layers underneath which collect and store rainwater. This water can be used by people in the building to water plants or flush toilets. Software can even tell the roofs to release water ahead of upcoming storms to maximize the system’s ability to absorb rainwater. It can even identify which areas of the city are at most risk and tailor the response accordingly. Yu Kongjian describes the sponge city approach as using Tai Chi with nature instead of boxing. Questions have been raised as to whether a natural approach is sufficient when faced with increased rain fall globally. What remains to be seen is whether increased scale and combination with modern technology can help natural methods save many more people from flooding. 12．What is the reason for floods in cities? A．More land is developed and occupied. B．More water is absorbed underneath. C．Sewerage systems have crashed. D．Riverside parks and ponds are fewer. 13．What does the underlined word “contamination” mean in paragraph 3? A．Concrete. B．Floodwater. C．Pollution. D．Ponds. 14．What is the main idea of paragraph 4? A．Advantage. B．Problem. C．Potential. D．Application. 15．What is the author’s attitude towards the sponge city? A．Approving. B．Objective. C．Pessimistic. D．Unclear. 【答案】12．A 13．C 14．D 15．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讨论了随着城市扩张，洪水风险增加的问题，并介绍了两种不同的城市设计方法以减少洪水风险。 12．细节理解题。根据第二段“As cities expand, and more land is underneath concrete, less water is absorbed and more needs to be channelled away by sewerage (下水道) systems. As they become overloaded by the volume of water, the risk of flash flooding increases. (随着城市的扩张，越来越多的土地被混凝土覆盖，吸收的水越来越少，更多的水需要通过排水系统排出。当它们被水量超载时，山洪暴发的风险就会增加。)”可知，城市洪水的原因是更多的土地被开发和占用。故选A。 13．词句猜测题。根据第三段“used to be washed into the sea (过去常被冲进大海)”可知，污染物过去常被冲进大海，划线词contamination的意思是“污染物”，和Pollution意思相近。故选C。 14．主旨大意题。根据第四段“A much more high-tech method can be seen in Amsterdam. The city has installed blue-green roofs on a number of buildings. These roofs have a layer of plants on the outside, and layers underneath which collect and store rainwater. This water can be used by people in the building to water plants or flush toilets. Software can even tell the roofs to release water ahead of upcoming storms to maximize the system’s ability to absorb rainwater. It can even identify which areas of the city are at most risk and tailor the response accordingly. (在阿姆斯特丹可以看到一种更高科技的方法。该市在许多建筑物上安装了蓝绿色的屋顶。这些屋顶外面有一层植物，下面有一层收集和储存雨水。这些水可以被楼里的人用来浇灌植物或冲厕所。软件甚至可以告诉屋顶在暴风雨来临之前放水，以最大限度地提高系统吸收雨水的能力。它甚至可以识别出城市的哪些区域风险最大，并相应地调整应对措施。)”可知，第四段主要讲的是高科技方法的应用，即Application。故选D。 15．推理判断题。根据最后一段“What remains to be seen is whether increased scale and combination with modern technology can help natural methods save many more people from flooding. (规模的扩大和与现代技术的结合是否能帮助自然方法使更多的人免于洪水，还有待观察。)”可知，作者对海绵城市的态度是客观的，故选B。 【密押点睛】 【长难句分析】 1. As cities expand, and more land is underneath concrete, less water is absorbed and more needs to be channelled away by sewerage systems. 句子结构：这是一个复合句，由两个并列的分句组成，描述了城市化进程中土地硬化对水循环的影响。 并列结构：“As”是时间状语从句，，表示“随着城市扩张，更多土地被混凝土覆盖”。“less water is absorbed and more needs to be channelled away by sewerage systems”是主句，描述了水吸收减少和需要通过下水道系统疏导的水量增加。 现在分词短语作后置定语：“underneath concrete”是现在分词短语作后置定语，修饰“land”，说明土地被混凝土覆盖的状态。 翻译：随着城市扩张，更多土地被混凝土覆盖，水的吸收量减少，需要通过下水道系统疏导的水量增加。 2：“What remains to be seen is whether increased scale and combination with modern technology can help natural methods save many more people from flooding.” “有待观察的是，规模的扩大以及与现代技术的结合是否能够帮助自然方法使更多人免受洪水之灾。” 主干结构：What remains to be seen is whether...。这是一个主系表结构，“What remains to be seen” 为主语从句，“is” 为系动词，“whether...flooding” 为表语从句。 主语从句：What remains to be seen 引导词：What，在从句中充当主语，表示 “有待被看到的事情”。 谓语：remains，一般现在时，意为 “仍然是；有待”。 表语：to be seen，动词不定式的被动形式，作表语，说明 “有待被观察” 。 系动词：is，用于连接主语从句和表语从句，起判断和说明主语 “是什么” 的作用。 表语从句：whether increased scale and combination with modern technology can help natural methods save many more people from flooding 引导词：whether，意为 “是否”，引导表语从句，在从句中不充当成分，仅起引导作用。 主语：increased scale and combination with modern technology，“increased scale”（规模的扩大）和 “combination with modern technology”（与现代技术的结合）构成并列主语。 谓语：can help，“can” 为情态动词，“help” 为实义动词，意为 “能够帮助” 。 宾语：natural methods，指 “自然方法”，作 help 的宾语。 宾语补足语：save many more people from flooding，是省略 to 的不定式短语作宾补，“save...from...” 表示 “使…… 免受……”，补充说明 “help” 的具体内容，即帮助自然方法达成的目标。 Passage 6 主题语境：人与社会--人工智能工具 词数：363+129 考点预测：细节理解题、词义猜测题、推理判断题。 押题指数：★★★★ Researchers at Rutgers University-New Brunswick have developed an AI tool that will help predict the habitats of endangered whales, guiding ships along the Atlantic coast to avoid them. The tool is designed to prevent deadly accidents and inform conservation strategies and responsible ocean development. The AI program analyzes patterns from two large databases, improving the ability to monitor the distribution of endangered marine (海洋的) species like the North Atlantic right whale. The marine sciences professors, Ahmed Ezzat and Josh Kohut, likened the output to what might be learned by tracking people’s movements in a house and determining whether there is food in the kitchen. Such factors might evaluate why people are where they are at certain times of the day. Detecting certain patterns conveys predictive power. “With this program, we’re correlating the position of a whale in the ocean with environmental conditions,” Kohut said. “This allows us to predict whale locations with higher probability, enabling us to carry out effective protection strategies.” Unlike typical computer programs, where instructions are written out, this new machine learning program analyzed large data sets to discover patterns and relationships. As the AI program encountered more data, it adjusted its internal model to make better predictions or classifications. “The outcome of the machine-learning model is a prediction of where you may encounter a marine mammal (哺乳动物),” Ezzat said, describing what he characterized as a “probability map”. Initially, the researchers sought to develop high-resolution models of the North Atlantic right whale presence to support responsible offshore wind farm development and operation. However, Ezzat noted that these tools could benefit various industries in the blue economy, such as fishing and shipping. “This approach can support a wise and environmentally responsible use of these waters,”Ezzat said. “For decades, we’ve had whale location data and environmental records, but AI finally connects them,” Kohut emphasized. “This demonstrates the power of employing AI methodologies to advance our ability to predict or estimate where these whales are. We can achieve our economic goals while minimizing harm to the environment.” This innovation safeguards whales and advances responsible ocean development — a critical step as climate pressures intensify. 12．What do we know about the AI tool? A．It can predict whale locations. B．It can avoid coastal pollution. C．It can monitor the research progress. D．It can prevent deadly marine diseases. 13．What does the underlined word “likened” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A．Owed. B．Compared. C．Applied. D．Submitted. 14．What can we learn from Kohut’s words in the last paragraph? A．Whales boost blue economy. B．Climate change harms whales. C．AI is key to sustainable oceanic exploration. D．Technological innovation takes constant efforts. 15．What is the author’s attitude toward the AI tool? A．Positive. B．Dismissive. C．Conservative. D．Objective. 【答案】12．A 13．B 14．C 15．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了罗格斯大学新不伦瑞克分校的研究人员开发了一种人工智能工具，该工具能够分析数据模式来预测濒危鲸鱼的栖息地，从而防止致命事故发生，并为海洋保护策略和合理的海洋开发提供信息。 12．细节理解题。根据第一段“Researchers at Rutgers University-New Brunswick have developed an AI tool that will help predict the habitats of endangered whales, guiding ships along the Atlantic coast to avoid them.(罗格斯大学新不伦瑞克分校的研究人员开发了一种人工智能工具，它将有助于预测濒危鲸鱼的栖息地，引导大西洋沿岸的船只避开它们)”以及第二段中“With this program, we’re correlating the position of a whale in the ocean with environmental conditions,“Kohut said.”This allows us to predict whale locations with higher probability, enabling us to carry out effective protection strategies.(科胡特说：“通过这个程序，我们将鲸鱼在海洋中的位置与环境条件联系起来。这使我们能够更有可能预测鲸鱼的位置，从而使我们能够实施有效的保护策略”)”可知，该人工智能工具可以预测鲸鱼的位置。故选A项。 13．词义猜测题。根据第二段“The marine sciences professors, Ahmed Ezzat and Josh Kohut, likened the output to what might be learned by tracking people’s movements in a house and determining whether there is food in the kitchen. Such factors might evaluate why people are where they are at certain times of the day.”(海洋科学教授艾哈迈德・埃扎特和乔希・科胡特将该程序的输出结果likened通过跟踪人们在房子里的活动并确定厨房里是否有食物所了解到的情况。这些因素可以评估人们在一天中的某些时候为什么会在某个地方。)可知，这里是把人工智能工具的输出结果和跟踪人们在房子里的活动作类比。划线词意为“和……比较”，故选B项。 14．推理判断题。根据最后一段 “For decades, we’ve had whale location data and environmental records, but AI finally connects them,“Kohut emphasized.”This demonstrates the power of employing AI methodologies to advance our ability to predict or estimate where these whales are. We can achieve our economic goals while minimizing harm to the environment.(科胡特强调：“几十年来，我们一直有鲸鱼位置数据和环境记录，但人工智能最终将它们联系起来了。这证明了使用人工智能方法来提高我们预测或估计这些鲸鱼位置的能力的力量。我们可以在实现经济目标的同时，将对环境的危害降到最低)”可知，人工智能在连接鲸鱼位置数据和环境记录方面起到了关键作用，有助于在实现经济目标的同时保护环境，所以可推断出人工智能是可持续海洋探索的关键。故选C项。 15．推理判断题。根据第一段 “The tool is designed to prevent deadly accidents and inform conservation strategies and responsible ocean development.(该工具旨在防止致命事故的发生，并为保护策略和负责任的海洋开发提供信息)”，最后一段又指出 “This innovation safeguards whales and advances responsible ocean development — a critical step as climate pressures intensify.(这项创新保护了鲸鱼，并推动了负责任的海洋开发 —— 这是在气候压力加剧的情况下的关键一步)”，可以看出作者认为该人工智能工具对保护鲸鱼和促进海洋开发有积极作用，所以作者对其持积极态度。故选A项。 【密押点睛】 【长难句分析】 1.

Inspired by a school project, Sophia conducted in-depth research by interviewing scientists and government officials and presented her findings on water conservation to the United Nations. Sophia’s scientific inquiry led her to experiment with hydrogels (水凝胶) — substances capable of absorbing and retaining water — which could be used in agriculture to reduce water consumption and lessen the strain on the lake’s water supply. While in eighth grade at Rowland Hall Middle School in Salt Lake City, she developed her own eco-friendly hydrogels using starch and other biodegradable materials. Her innovative approach earned her second place in the Technology category at the 2024 Scientific Junior Innovators Challenge, organized by Society for Science. Sophia credits her success to the guidance of her mentors — local high school science teachers who dedicated their time to teaching her organic chemistry, providing resources, and lending her laboratory equipment. “They spent countless lunch hours mentoring me,” she recalls. Sophia emphasizes that finding good mentors can start with something as simple as sending an email to knowledgeable people in the community. One key lesson Sophia learned is that scientific experiments rarely go exactly as planned. Through trial and error, discussions with mentors, and extensive reading, she realized that setbacks are an integral part of the scientific process. For aspiring scientists, Sophia offers advice: observe curiously, think carefully, and act courageously. She encourages a proactive approach to problem-solving, starting with community issues, studying existing solutions, and bravely exploring new paths. Sophia’s experience, marked by overcoming research obstacles, highlights the rewarding nature of scientific exploration. And her story demonstrates that while research can be challenging, the pursuit of solutions is immensely fulfilling. 24. What motivated Sophia to research hydrogels? A.

They can see things others can’t notice and create beautiful art forms from their imagination. In the case of 27-year-old Emily Shifflet, she creates her art literally using only her eyes, as she lives with Rett syndrome, a rare genetic and developmental disorder that limits speech and movement. “Although Emily lives with a condition that has silenced her, she is still able to communicate and express herself through art, and she is an example that people living with Rett syndrome can have lives filled with purpose and creativity,” said Emily’s mother, Jenny Shifflet. Emily creates her art using a special digital software operated by her eyes called Tobii Dynavox. She was able to learn and practice her painting by using the digital painter software on her communication device. Meghan Winslow, owner of a family art studio, said, “I love the diversity of the different designs based upon the different painting tools that she can select. It’s an amazing mix of science, technology and art.” Emily has always been exposed to music and art. Tobii Dynavox has really helped her communicate how she was feeling. The painting tool was truly a game-changer. “Emily could finally use the only muscle she has to be creative,” Jenny said. Jenny noticed the art Emily was creating a few years ago and thought they could make nice gifts. She now sells her one-of-a-kind artwork through her website, Eye Gaze Designs by Emily. “Her artwork is a gift,” Jenny said. “It is showing people that individuals with different abilities can be creative and successful in different ways. That’s what we want to show.” Emily’s artwork has also appeared in Hershey Medical Center and The Art of Pennsylvania. She also serves as a guest artist at SPLAT-A Family Art Studio in Annville and Hershey, Pennsylvania. She simply continues to shine. 4. What is special about Emily Shifflet’s art creation? A. She uses traditional paintbrushes. B. She creates art through eye movements. C. She relies on others’ physical assistance. D. She focuses on abstract philosophical themes. 5. What does the underlined word “game-changer” in paragraph 3 mean? A. A creative tool. B. challenging rule. C. A risky experiment. D. A temporary solution. 6. Why does Jenny sell Emily’s artwork online? A. To earn money for medical treatment. B. To prove Emily’s ability to communicate. C. To inspire people with disabilities creatively. D. To promote digital software technology. 7. What message does Emily’s story mainly convey? A. Art requires advanced scientific knowledge. B. Disabilities cannot limit creativity and success. C. Family support is key to overcoming challenges. D. Technology alone determines artistic value. Passage 2 主题语境：人与自我--爱好与职业的平衡 词数：332+165 考点预测：细节理解题、推理判断题。 押题指数：★★★★ My fingers trembled as I signed the pre-medical application form. The watercolor brushes on my desk stared back at me like abandoned friends. I’m Lora, an 18- year-old who secretly drew brain diagrams on napkins while classmate drew cartoons. “Art feeds the soul but starve the body,” Mom always said. Her words haunted me as my biology textbooks slowly buried my drawing pads. Then came the school career fair that changed everything. Dr. Eleanor Whitman from Harvard asked us to list our “hidden skills” My hand shook as I wrote “observing details” something I’d learned from painting flower petals. “That’s medical research’s most needed skill!” she exclaimed, sharing how a student turned microbiology notes into textbook illustrations. My lab partner whispered, “Remember our photosynthesis (光合作用) comic?” For the first time, my two worlds didn’t feel so separate. The real surprise came during hospital volunteering. Watching surgeries, I noticed something-the steady hands of doctors reminded me of my brush work. When a boy struggled to describe his pain, I drew a fire-breathing dragon on his cast. “You made medicine speak,” the nurse said. Slowly, my drawing pads filled with cells that looked like colored-glass art and X-rays arranged like abstract paintings. Mr. Dawson, our career counselor, helped connect these dots. On his white board, my medical knowledge and art skills overlapped in a bright yellow circle labeled “Medical Illustration” He showed me job li stings I never knew existed — graphic designers for science alps, 3D modelers for anatomy (解剖) classes. “Your” impractical skill makes you stand out,” he said, pointing to my dragon drawing now used in pain management workshops. Today, my microscope and paintbrushes share the same desk. The same hands that once hesitated between them now create 3D models of viruses for vaccine education. Sometimes I teach young patients to draw their feelings instead of describing them. My story isn’t about heart and reality cancelling each other out —they just multiply possibilities. 4．What can be inferred about Lora from paragraph 1? A．She had given up the hobby of drawing. B．She was excited about studying medicine. C．She felt torn between art and medical study. D．She regretted not practicing painting earlier. 5．Dr. Eleanor thought of Lora’s “hidden skills” as______.

C．It boosted her enthusiasm for abstract art. D．It convinced her of art’s role in health care. 7．What message does the author want to convey? A．Follow the beaten track to success. B．A picture is worth a thousand words. C．Don’t put all your eggs in one basket. D．Two strings to your bow light the way. Passage 3 From sleeping in a spider-covered tent a mile up an Amazonian cliff face to completing one of the classic outdoor “lifetime” challenges in the space of a few months, Anna Taylor is making a name for herself in the adventure community. Still just 24, the climber is also a great advocate of British expeditions. “The UK is actually really good for these things.” says Taylor, who in 2021 became the first woman to complete a self-powered round of the 83 routes that feature in the celebrated climbing book Classic Rock. “It can be underestimated compared to exotic (异国风情的) places, but if you get creative, it’s as good as anywhere.” she says. “The Classic Rock challenge is the kind of thing people try to finish during their lives, a bit like walking the Wainwrights, but I doubted the capability to make it in summer. It was amazing and opened my eyes to UK climbing. I didn’t realize how challenging cycle touring would be with so much equipment. But it’s a great way to appreciate the landscape, and completing a long ride is as satisfying as getting to the top of a route. “Taylor explored a huge amount of the country in the process. She then completed another self-powered round, climbing the 100 routes detailed in the guide Mountain Rock. “It is really a physical challenge,” Taylor says. Having come to the attention of one of the UK’s top adventurers, Leo Houlding. Taylor also went on a trip to the Guyanese Amazon to scale the giant Mount Roraima. “We were in the jungle for a month,” she recalls. “That was incredible and pretty scary sleeping there at first, especially with huge spiders walking across your tent!” Taylor thrives on the physical and mental challenges of climbing. “It’s all about keeping your head under control,” she explains. “You practice with a safety rope, and then it’s about making the commitment of doing it without one.” 4．What has made Taylor famous in the adventure community?

Passage 4 主题语境：人与自我--努力克服恐惧 词数：322+194 考点预测：细节理解题、推理判断题。 押题指数：★★★★ In recent years, tennis has influenced various aspects of our lives, from fashion trends to entertainment. Now, Belgian eco-designer Mathilde Wittock is making a mark in the realm of design. She ingeniously crafts unique furniture using waste tennis balls. As an enthusiastic tennis player herself, Wittock has witnessed firsthand the shocking waste of tennis balls. Each year, around 300 million tennis balls are produced, and unfortunately, the vast majority of them end up in landfills, taking over 400 years to be broken down. What’s more, the lifespan of a single tennis ball is remarkably short, typically lasting only about nine games. Wittock’s furniture pieces, such as sofas cushioned with 500 precisely arranged tennis balls and one-meter-long benches composed of 270 balls, are not only aesthetically (审美地) pleasing but also sturdy. It takes her approximately three to four weeks to construct a chair, which is priced at $2,900. Notably, every ball is delicately cut and dyed by hand. Wittock first discovered the design potential of tennis balls while studying at Central Saint Martins. Currently, she sources her materials through donations. For instance, the Federation of Wallonia in Brussels has provided her with 100,000 tennis balls. For Wittock, eco-design is all about circularity. At the end of her furniture’ s life cycle, the tennis balls can be easily recycled into bouncy playground mats. Looking ahead, her next objective is to expand her reach to the tens of thousands of tennis clubs in North America. So, the next time you see abandoned tennis balls, remember that their journey might just be starting anew. 5．What made Wittock reuse tennis balls? A．The wild popularity of tennis balls. B．The great influence of tennis balls. C．The low price to make tennis balls. D．The unbearable waste of tennis balls. 6．What can be inferred about Mathilde Wittock? A．She follows the existing trends in sustainable design. B．She relies heavily on advanced manufacturing technologies. C．She applies available resources to maintain her creative work. D．She focuses on the use of recycled materials more than the design. 7．What will happen to the tennis balls at the end of the furniture’s life cycle? A．They will be thrown away in landfills. B．They will be recycled as playground mats. C．They will be reused to make new tennis balls. D．They will be stored for future furniture-making. 8．What is the main idea of the passage? A．The process of making furniture from tennis balls. B．The problem of tennis ball waste and its solutions. C．The popularity of tennis and its influence on daily life. D．The creative green ways to give life to waste tennis balls. Passage 5 主题语境：人与自然--户外探索 词数：268+116 考点预测：细节理解题。 押题指数：★★★★ After taking an introductory course in global health last winter, Yashaswi Bista, president of Stanford SupplyHer, was empowered to take action against malaria —a disease that has been claiming hundreds of thousands of lives every year for centuries. Stanford SupplyHer, a student group supporting women’s health through art, hosted an event in partnership with United to Beat Malaria (UBM) to encourage funding for malaria prevention, treatment and research initiatives while tabling at White Plaza last Monday. “Knowing that malaria is especially dangerous to pregnant individuals and children makes advocacy for malaria funding and research essential for our mission,” said Bista. “We in the U. S. need to be aware of the impact of global warming on malaria because less developed countries in other parts of the world are more heavily affected by our emissions,” Bista said. Last year, the U. S. experienced its first local outbreaks of malaria since 2003. Infectious disease experts have warned that climate change will spread malaria and other diseases carried by mosquitoes to areas that were once free of malaria. This summer, after discovering the work of UBM, a global grassroots campaign of the UN Foundation, Bista met with her congressional (国会的) representatives to advocate for malaria treatment and research. To support continued funding for global malaria programs, Bista wrote to officials in Congress. “It’s easy for people to feel like they are powerless with issues as big as malaria. But any person can give input to their decision makers on issues as big as these,” wrote Macgan Cross, a senior advocate at UBM. “By sending messages to your elected officials in support of global health funding, you are making sure your voice is heard.” Bista encouraged students to become involved in initiatives on campus to spread awareness of malaria and other global health issues. “Global health is important to me because there are so many health inequities (不平等) around the world and health itself is important to live a fulfilling life,” Bista said. “Because there are so many health inequities around the world, I want to raise awareness and help people live fulfilling lives.” 9．What inspired Bista to engage in actions against malaria? A．A learning experience. B．A health crisis. C．A grassroots campaign. D．A tabling event. 10．What did Bista do to support malaria prevention? A．She organized a charity sale. B．She launched a research project. C．She campaigned for fundraising. D．She budgeted for malaria treatment. 11．What is the message Maegan Cross intends to convey? A．Community voices secure health funding. B．Malaria outbreaks are difficult to prevent. C．The public needs more knowledge about health. D．Individual efforts matter in government decisions. 12．Which of the following best describes Bista? A．A health advocate. B．A club founder. C．A woman pioneer. D．A disease specialist.

Nevertheless I find myself getting out of bed and getting dressed. A car horn sounds as I’m putting on a thick coat and wrapping a scarf around me. I grab a hat and join Jim in his car. He doesn’t seem to mind it’s cold and dark. In fact, he’ s smiling. “You’re going to love this,” he says as we drive off to the nearest park. I’m not so sure. At any opportunity Jim will be watching quietly, and sometimes excitedly, through his telescope at a bird. Don’t get me wrong. I like birds, but I just don’t get as crazy about them as Jim. Recently, when he found out that I had never heard the dawn chorus, he insisted that we meet at this unearthly hour and head for the local park. So here we are. Luckily Jim has brought hot coffee and a warm carpet to sit on. After ten shivering minutes there is a very faint light over the eastern side of the park, a suggestion of the day ahead. “Listen,” whispers Jim. I listen, nothing. Then clearly and loudly a bird starts singing. “That’s the robin (知更鸟). He’s usually the first.” After a few seconds another bird joins in “A blackbird” and then another “A blue bird”. It’s amazing. Twenty minutes later the whole park is alive with the chorus, calling, singing of birds! And yes, it’s wonderful! The noise is incredible. The lighter the sky becomes, the louder the birds sing, an incredible birds’ concert. “Wow, so are they singing because they’re happy?” I ask in disbelief. “Not really,” Jim laughs, “in fact they’re hungry but they need to do two things. One is to defend their territory and the other is to find a female–by singing they can achieve both.” Jim sees my puzzled face and explains. We listen together for a while and then slowly but surely, as the sun emerges above the trees, the birds stop singing. “Now it’s light enough to find food, and that’s the end of the show today.” 4．What is the author’s initial attitude to the early outing? A．Cautious. B．Reluctant. C．Passionate. D．Indifferent. 5．What makes the author involved in the activity? A．Jim’s insistence on it. B．Jim’s enthusiasm on birds. C．The author’s interest in chorus. D．The author’s curiosity about birds. 6．What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A．The singing skills of birds. B．The abundant diversity of birds. C．Various tunes of the “dawn chorus”. D．Lively scenes of the “dawn chorus”. 7．Why do birds sing at dawn according to Jim? A．To guard the land and attract mates. B．To show off their beautiful voices. C．To extend welcome to the sunrise. D．To fight fiercely for early worms. 押题猜想三：说明文阅读（科普/社会现象深度解析） 限时：8min （深度改编） 主题语境：人与社会--人际关系 词数：347+117 考点预测：细节理解题、词义猜测题。 Research has found that loneliness and social isolation are associated with an increased risk of conditions like anxiety, depression, heart disease, and stroke. In fact, a 2010 analysis found that loneliness is as harmful to physical health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day — meaning using friendship to reduce loneliness is good for you. But how many friends should you have? According to Jeffrey Hall, a professor of communication studies at the University of Kansas, if you want to ease the health impacts of loneliness, the most important thing you can do is to have at least one important person in your life. But if you want to have the most meaningful life, one where you feel very bonded and connected to others, more friends are better. Some research endorses his remarks. One study from 2016 found that those with at least six friends have better health throughout their lives, and a study from 2020 found that middle-aged women who have at least three friends typically have higher levels of overall satisfaction with their lives. To figure out whether you need more friends in your life, psychologist Marisa Franco recommends asking yourself, “Do I feel lonely?” Loneliness is sort of an alarm system. While everyone feels lonely sometimes, you should determine whether you feel left out or isolated regularly. Franco also recommends asking yourself if there are parts of your identity that you feel are restricted. “Different people bring out different parts of us. So when you have a large friend group, you’re able to experience this side of yourself that loves basketball, and that side of yourself that loves flowers,” Franco said. “If you’re not feeling quite like yourself, that might indicate you need different types of friends.” Since making new friends can be difficult, Franco said it’s often easier to rekindle old relationships. She added that you should take the initiative and not assume that friendships will naturally happen. “Ultimately, there ‘isn’t a magic number’ of friends for everyone,” Hall said. “Your personality and the characteristics of your life are going to make a difference.” 1. What does the research suggest about loneliness? A. It increases physical health risks. B. It affects smokers more seriously. C. It requires medical treatment. D. It leads to fewer social connections. 2. What does Jeffrey Hall emphasize for reducing loneliness? A. Having three close friends. B. Attending social events regularly. C. Maintaining one meaningful relationship. D. Building a large online friend network. 3. What does the underlined word “endorses” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Challenges. B. Supports. C. Ignores. D. Repeats. 4. What is the main conclusion about the number of friends? A. Six friends ensure lifelong health. B. Personality determines friendship needs. C. Old friendships are always the best. D. More friends guarantee higher satisfaction. 押题解读 说明文在新高考英语试卷中出现频率较高，一般一套试卷2-3篇知识性和逻辑性强，内容新颖，兼顾日常生活相关的主题和科普、研究类主题。近三年新高考英语阅读理解说明文考情统计如下： 2024年新高考I，C篇---主题语境：人与自我，主题内容：文章主要介绍了纸质阅读与数字阅读、音频和视频学习方式的差异和效果。 2024年新高考II，C篇---主题语境：人与自然，主题内容：介绍了巴比伦微农场（BMF）的一些主要优势，，包括减少食物运输距离、通过云技术远程监控、自动化系统节约水资源、减少化学污染、以及员工的环保生活方式等。 2024年新高考II，D篇---主题语境：人与自我，主题内容：介绍了Catriona Campbell所著AI by Design: A Plan for Living with Artificial Intelligence一书。 2023年新高考I，C篇---主题语境：人与自我，主题内容：数字极简主义生活方式。 2023年新高考I，D篇---主题语境：人与社会，主题内容：“群体智慧”效应。 2023年新高考II，C篇---主题语境：人与社会，主题内容：书籍介绍。 2023年新高考II，D篇---主题语境：人与自然，主题内容：接触自然有益健康。 2022年新高考I，C篇---主题语境：人与社会，主题内容：养老院养鸡项目。 2022年新高考I，D篇---主题语境：人与社会，主题内容：饮食结构影响语音。 2022年新高考II，C篇---主题语境：人与社会，主题内容：司机无视禁用手机禁令。 2022年新高考II，D篇---主题语境：人与自我，主题内容：运动可以促进心脏健康。、 押题01主题语境：人与社会， 主题内容：良好的人际关系。考查题型：细节理解题3题，词义猜测题1题。 押题02主题语境：人与自然， 主题内容：气候变化对世界鸟类物种。人与自然话题是高考英语立德树人的具体表现。 Passage 1 （深度改编） 主题语境：人与自然--气候变化对世界鸟类物种 词数：268+116 考点预测：细节理解题。 押题指数：★★★★★ Climate change is having a far-reaching and significant impact on the world's bird species, with a new study revealing that many are shrinking（收缩）in size. This research provides crucial insights into the complex relationship between birds and their changing environment. Researchers from multiple famous universities, such as the University of Guelph and the University of Michigan, carefully examined data on nearly 80,000 individual birds from 52 species across North America. Their in-depth study covered a span（跨度）of over 40 years. During this period, as the global climate continued to warm, with average temperatures steadily rising, a remarkable trend emerged: the birds, on average, became smaller. In addition to the decrease in body size, the birds' wingspans have also increased slightly. Scientists believe this is an adaptation mechanism. In warmer conditions, a larger wingspan can help birds generate more lift with less effort, enabling them to migrate more flexibly in long distances. The study's lead author, Dr. Ryan Norris, noted that the changes in bird size and wingspan are highly likely a direct response to climate change. “Birds are highly sensitive to environmental changes, and these findings suggest that they are evolving in response to rising temperatures,” he said. “Smaller body size may help birds regulate their body temperature more effectively in warmer climates, while the increase in wingspan could aid in their ability to find food and mates over larger areas as habitats shift.” However, the researchers also cautioned that these changes could have negative consequences for some bird species. For instance, smaller-bodied songbirds may have less energy reserves to bear the delicate balance of competition for resources. A bird with an altered wingspan might find it more difficult to compete with its peers for limited food sources or nesting sites. Additionally, the new wingspan characteristics could also impact their ability to avoid predators（捕食者）, as the predator-prey dynamics are often based on the birds' original physical characteristics. 1. What is the main finding of the new study? A. Birds are migrating earlier each year. B. Bird species are becoming more diverse. C. Birds are shrinking in size due to climate change. D. Bird habitats are expanding globally. 2. What change in birds’ wingspan did researchers observe? A. A slight increase. B. A significant decrease. C. No noticeable change. D. Complete disappearance. D.3. What does the underlined word “evolving” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Disappearing. B. Changing. C. Struggling. D. Competing. 4. What concern do researchers have about smaller-bodied birds? A. They may lose their migration ability. B. Their food sources will increase rapidly. C. Their nesting sites could become overcrowded. D. They might face resource competition challenges. Passage 2 主题语境：人与社会 子话题：科技进步及其局限性 词数：350+148 考点预测：细节理解题、推理判断题、词义猜测题。 押题指数：★★★★★ A machine can now not only play a perfect game of chess but also write poetry that matches the greats. Last month, in a poetry competition in New York City, an AI named Poet Bot impressed the judges, outperforming several well-known poets, including Sarah Johnson, a Pulitzer Prize-winning poet. This showed the remarkable advancements in artificial intelligence. Brilliant as it is, Poet Bot has limitations. It constructs lines by selecting phrases from its database of poems and combining them in ways that follow poetic forms. This method can sometimes produce meaningless lines that no human poet would write. For example, Poet Bot might put together phrases that sound poetic but lack clear emotional depth. These issues will likely be fixed over time, but they highlight a deeper challenge. As Dr. Emily Rivera, a professor at Yale University, explained, “The system lacks an understanding of the emotions and experiences behind the words.” She noted that while Poet Bot can generate structurally sound poetry, it often misses the slight details that make human poetry impactful. What Dr. Rivera refers to is the essence of human creativity, which separates even the least skilled human poet from the most advanced AI. A computer processes symbols according to programmed rules, transforming inputs into outputs without understanding their significance. For humans, however, writing poetry is an expression of emotion. The arrangement of words in a poem is not just about their order but about the feelings they convey. This is why human poets can bring out deep emotions and connect with readers on a personal level, something that Poet Bot, despite its technical skills, struggles to achieve. Creativity arises from emotional interactions, not just computational processes. These experiences shape symbols in our minds, and the cultural and social contexts in which we live give them depth. This difference ensures that, despite Poet Bot’s abilities, the art of poetry — rooted in the times of Homer and Li Bai — will remain a unique human effort. As technology advances, AI may assist human creativity but will never replace the richness of human experience that fuels artistic expression. 8．Why does the author mention Sarah Johnson in paragraph 1? A．To discuss the design of Poet Bot. B．To highlight the success of Poet Bot. C．To explain the competition’s rules. D．To introduce a judge of the competition. 9．What does the underlined word “limitations” in paragraph 2 refer to? A．Features. B．Strengths. C．Shortcomings. D．Goals. 10．What is Poet Bot unable to do according to Dr. Rivera? A．Understand emotions. B．Select phrases. C．Follow poetic forms. D．Stick to rules. 11．What can we learn from the last paragraph? A．Cultural contexts are irrelevant to poetry. B．AI will soon overtake human poets in creativity. C．Machines will eventually understand human emotions. D．Human creativity is deeply rooted in personal experiences. Passage 3 主题语境：人与自然--全球变暖与人类健康 词数：295+178 考点预测：细节理解题、推理判断题、主旨大意题。 押题指数：★★★★ The warming planet is worsening mental illness and depression. Researchers need to work out the scale of the problem and how those who need assistance can be helped. Nearly one billion people worldwide — including one in seven teenagers — have a mental disorder. A growing number of studies suggest that climate change is worsening people’s mental health and emotional well-being. Extreme heatwaves, droughts, floods and fires fuelled by climate change cause suffering, mental illness and depression. In a recent survey of people aged 16 — 35 in 10 countries, nearly 60% of respondents were highly worried about climate change, and more than 45% said their feelings about climate change affected their daily lives. Such reactions to an existential threat are expected, and many people can handle these feelings on their own — but some need specialist help. Researchers and governments need better ways to measure the extent of climate change’s effects on mental health. Data scientists, and climate scientists should join mental-health researchers in helping those in need. Mental-health professionals also need training and support to provide help. One key challenge for researchers is measuring the mental-health burden due to climate change and tracking it over time. Most researches so far have been conducted in high-income countries, despite low-and middle-income countries experiencing the hardest effects of the warming planet. The good news is that some steps are already being taken. Researchers are, for instance, trying to develop global mental-health measurements that can be linked to weather and climate data. They also suggest that individuals need to know that their feelings like anxiety or anger are normal — and if they can keep their unease at bay and then take action to combat climate change, they could help themselves and the world: a double win. 12．What does the survey mentioned in paragraph 2 show? A．Mental health is a major global concern. B．Extreme disasters arise from climate change. C．Climate change influences mental well-being. D．Teenagers easily suffer from mental disorder. 13．What are specialists expected to do? A．Improve mental illness treatment. B．Provide further training and support. C．Work jointly to offer help to the needy. D．Guide people to handle feelings alone. 14．What does the author imply in the fourth paragraph? A．It’s hard to find out the impact of climate change. B．Income influences the process of global warming. C．The result of former researches may not be reliable. D．Economy develops at a considerable cost of our planet. 15．Which of the following is the best title for the text? A．Tips on Maintaining Mental Well-Being B．Key Challenges in Managing Eco-Anxiety C．Low-Income Countries, Victims of Global Warming D．Higher Temperatures, More Depression Sufferers Passage 4 主题语境：人与社会--自动驾驶汽车的优势和劣势 词数：346+163 考点预测：推理判断题、词义猜测题。 押题指数：★★★★ Driving has significant downsides, including pollution, traffic, and crashes. In 2023, an estimated 40,990 people died in car crashes in the U.S., with millions more injured in nonfatal collisions (碰撞). These crashes often result from human errors, such as drunk drive, distraction, or misjudgment. Despite efforts to mitigate these errors through traffic enforcement and safer road design, human mistakes remain a major issue. Self-driving cars, like those developed by Waymo, offer a promising solution. Waymo’s robotaxis have driven 33 million miles, primarily in San Francisco and Phoenix, and have been involved in 62% fewer police-reported crashes, 78% fewer injury-causing crashes, and 81% fewer severe crashes compared to human-driven cars. These figures might even understate the safety benefits, as other drivers are often partially responsible for collisions with autonomous vehicles. While incidents like the Cruise robotaxi accident, where a human driver hit a passer-by who was then dragged by the autonomous vehicle, raise concerns, human drivers also cause terrible accidents. The key question is whether autonomous vehicles are safer overall and can be made even safer through careful monitoring and innovation. Data from California shows that most crashes involving Waymo and Cruise vehicles were low-speed and often caused by other drivers. Although it’s too early to determine the full impact of self-driving cars on fatal crashes, the potential for reducing human error is significant. As more autonomous vehicles hit the road, the number of crashes caused by human drivers could decrease, leading to broader societal benefits, including reduced healthcare costs and fewer legal issues related to traffic accidents. The Autonomous Vehicle Industry Association has proposed a policy framework to speed the adoption of self-driving cars, advocating for clear federal guidelines and a national safety data base. While autonomous driving technology is still in its beginning and faces challenges like navigating snow and ice, policymakers should work to remove regulatory barriers and ensure safety standards are met. In conclusion, while human drivers won’t disappear soon, self-driving cars have the potential to significantly improve road safety and reduce the economic and social costs of traffic accidents. 12．What does the underlined word “mitigate” in paragraph 1 mean? A．Ease. B．Expand. C．Explain. D．Embrace. 13．What can we infer from Waymo’s robotaxi data? A．Robotaxis are unbelievably safe. B．They are safer than human-driven cars. C．They might cause more severe crashes. D．Other drivers are unlikely to hit robotaxis. 14．What is one challenge mentioned for self-driving cars? A．They cannot operate in big cities. B．They are not accepted by the public. C．They are too expensive to produce. D．They may struggle in snow and ice. 15．What does the author imply in the last paragraph? A．Self-driving technologies have brought about profits environmentally. B．Human drivers will be replaced by self-driving cars in the near future. C．Policymakers should focus on developing self-driving technologies. D．Self-driving cars have a promising future with great benefits. Passage 5 主题语境：人与社会--城市设计 词数：355+108 考点预测：推理判断题、主旨大意题。 押题指数：★★★★ Floods are becoming more and more common around the world. Could the way that cities are growing be making things worse? Could we design cities in a different way to reduce the risk of flooding? As cities expand, and more land is underneath concrete, less water is absorbed and more needs to be channelled away by sewerage (下水道) systems. As they become overloaded by the volume of water, the risk of flash flooding increases. Could it be that we’ve been taking the wrong approach? Chinese landscape architect Yu Kongjian certainly thinks so. In 2013, he proposed the concept of “sponge (海绵) cities”, designed to absorb water — like a sponge — reducing the risk of sudden floods. Natural solutions are encouraged, using riverside parks and ponds to absorb floodwater. Approaches inspired by this have been taken by cities across the world. Auckland, in New Zealand, was named the spongiest city in one study. It has replaced the concrete culverts (地下排水) around the Oakley stream with green banks and connected parks. This has reduced flooding as well as the amount of associated contamination which used to be washed into the sea. A much more high-tech method can be seen in Amsterdam. The city has installed blue-green roofs on a number of buildings. These roofs have a layer of plants on the outside, and layers underneath which collect and store rainwater. This water can be used by people in the building to water plants or flush toilets. Software can even tell the roofs to release water ahead of upcoming storms to maximize the system’s ability to absorb rainwater. It can even identify which areas of the city are at most risk and tailor the response accordingly. Yu Kongjian describes the sponge city approach as using Tai Chi with nature instead of boxing. Questions have been raised as to whether a natural approach is sufficient when faced with increased rain fall globally. What remains to be seen is whether increased scale and combination with modern technology can help natural methods save many more people from flooding. 12．What is the reason for floods in cities? A．More land is developed and occupied. B．More water is absorbed underneath. C．Sewerage systems have crashed. D．Riverside parks and ponds are fewer. 13．What does the underlined word “contamination” mean in paragraph 3? A．Concrete. B．Floodwater. C．Pollution. D．Ponds. 14．What is the main idea of paragraph 4? A．Advantage. B．Problem. C．Potential. D．Application. 15．What is the author’s attitude towards the sponge city? A．Approving. B．Objective. C．Pessimistic. D．Unclear. Passage 6 主题语境：人与社会--人工智能工具 词数：363+129 考点预测：细节理解题、词义猜测题、推理判断题。 押题指数：★★★★ Researchers at Rutgers University-New Brunswick have developed an AI tool that will help predict the habitats of endangered whales, guiding ships along the Atlantic coast to avoid them. The tool is designed to prevent deadly accidents and inform conservation strategies and responsible ocean development. The AI program analyzes patterns from two large databases, improving the ability to monitor the distribution of endangered marine (海洋的) species like the North Atlantic right whale. The marine sciences professors, Ahmed Ezzat and Josh Kohut, likened the output to what might be learned by tracking people’s movements in a house and determining whether there is food in the kitchen. Such factors might evaluate why people are where they are at certain times of the day. Detecting certain patterns conveys predictive power. “With this program, we’re correlating the position of a whale in the ocean with environmental conditions,” Kohut said. “This allows us to predict whale locations with higher probability, enabling us to carry out effective protection strategies.” Unlike typical computer programs, where instructions are written out, this new machine learning program analyzed large data sets to discover patterns and relationships. As the AI program encountered more data, it adjusted its internal model to make better predictions or classifications. “The outcome of the machine-learning model is a prediction of where you may encounter a marine mammal (哺乳动物),” Ezzat said, describing what he characterized as a “probability map”. Initially, the researchers sought to develop high-resolution models of the North Atlantic right whale presence to support responsible offshore wind farm development and operation. However, Ezzat noted that these tools could benefit various industries in the blue economy, such as fishing and shipping. “This approach can support a wise and environmentally responsible use of these waters,”Ezzat said. “For decades, we’ve had whale location data and environmental records, but AI finally connects them,” Kohut emphasized. “This demonstrates the power of employing AI methodologies to advance our ability to predict or estimate where these whales are. We can achieve our economic goals while minimizing harm to the environment.” This innovation safeguards whales and advances responsible ocean development — a critical step as climate pressures intensify. 12．What do we know about the AI tool? A．It can predict whale locations. B．It can avoid coastal pollution. C．It can monitor the research progress. D．It can prevent deadly marine diseases. 13．What does the underlined word “likened” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A．Owed. B．Compared. C．Applied. D．Submitted. 14．What can we learn from Kohut’s words in the last paragraph? A．Whales boost blue economy. B．Climate change harms whales. C．AI is key to sustainable oceanic exploration. D．Technological innovation takes constant efforts. 15．What is the author’s attitude toward the AI tool? A．Positive. B．Dismissive. C．Conservative. D．Objective. 【长难句分析】 1. Initially, the researchers sought to develop high-resolution models of the North Atlantic right whale presence to support responsible offshore wind farm development and operation. Passage 7 主题语境：人与自我--健康生活 词数：389+198 考点预测：细节理解题、推理判断题、主旨大意题。 押题指数：★★★★ The body clock really means circadian rhythms (昼夜节律). These are the body’s internal biological pacemakers that help us adjust to the phases of a 24-hour day. Studies of night-shift participants have linked disruptions (紊乱) in circadian rhythms to cancer and other diseases. Much of the evidence concerned breast cancer and to a lesser extent prostate cancer. Duration of shift work made a difference — participants who worked night shifts for up to 30 years were at moderately increased risk for breast cancer compared with those who did shorter period, and those who worked such shifts for more than 30 years had the highest risk. In 2019 the World Health Organization reconfirmed and updated a research statement from the agency showing that shift work is a probable cause. The cancer connection comes about through several mechanisms. Circadian disruption affects the chemical reactions that produce energy in the body. Adult human cells divide every 18 to 24 hours, and one function of the circadian clock is to tell cells to do that at night to avoid DNA damage from sunlight. “When the clock gets disrupted, cells don’t know when to divide,” says Satchidananda Panda, a circadian biologist of the Salk Institute for Biological Studies. “They can divide faster and become a tumor (肿瘤).” Circadian disruption also happens when we consistently don’t get a good night’s sleep — scientists say this can mean waking up for two or three hours between 10 P. M. and 5 A．M. at least once a week. Wakeful episodes can be caused by jet lag, staying out late, or looking at blue-light-emitting phone screens, which are similar to daylight, at night. When and what we eat also influences our rhythms, just as light and dark do, so add snacking at midnight to the list of things to avoid. For those who don’t work at night, changing some routines might be enough. Panda and his colleagues are investigating a practice known as Time-Restricted Eating (TRE) or occasional fasting. In a 12-week study of firefighters, TRE benefited their metabolic health and improved their sleep. In mice, it has been shown to reduce the risk of cancer or to slow the growth of tumors. Maybe, Panda says, “Respecting our circadian rhythms can help protect our time-sensitive bodies.” 8．Who is most likely to suffer from cancer according to the text? A．A nurse on the night shift for 25 years B．A chef working in a restaurant for 40 years. C．A programmer staying up all night for 33 years. D．A volcano expert exploring in the wild for 35 years. 9．What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A．The causes of circadian disruption. B．The function of the circadian clock. C．The link between circadian disruption and cancer. D．The frequency of cell division in the human body. 10．What can be concluded from paragraphs 4 and 5? A．Eating habits can affect body rhythms. B．Going on a diet is a must for good health. C．Working late at night requires extra meals. D．Exposure to daylight contributes to better sleep. 11．Which would be the best title for the text? A．How does the night shift generate cancer? B．Can we schedule our circadian rhythms? C．Adjusting our body clock may avoid cancer D．Listening to our body and adopting TRE count Passage 8 主题语境：人与自我--积极的生活态度 词数：316+153 考点预测：细节理解题、主旨大意题。 押题指数：★★★★ What if everything happens for a reason? It’s a theory that we’ve all heard more than once. And in many ways, burnt toast theory can be seen as a modern take on this classic idea, implying that every little inconvenience we experience in our day-to-day lives happens for a bigger reason. We’ve all been there. Say you accidentally burn your toast before leaving for work. According to burnt toast theory, this single, tiny inconvenience is enough to have a domino effect (多米诺效应). Your morning is then pushed back by what, maybe three to five minutes? Perhaps that is enough time to leave the house a little bit later than usual, and to avoid getting in a car accident. Or it might mean you end up getting a later train, and avoid bumping into someone who you’d really rather avoid. In other words, the burnt toast theory is a reminder to shift your thinking pattern. When we choose to view the world in a more positive light, we can help to reduce feelings of anxiety, and release our fear of being out of control of the world around us. It prevents us from thinking over something that isn’t really all that bad in the grand perspective of things and encourages us to make meaning of challenges we may experience, thus making us more adaptive to the future setbacks. The next time you feel yourself becoming annoyed or frustrated by an inconvenience in your life, try reshaping your thoughts by telling yourself why you’re grateful for the inconvenience. While maintaining a positive mindset can go a long way, burnt toast theory is not without its drawbacks. Be mindful that only allowing yourself to focus on positive thoughts can mean that you are denying yourself the chance to properly engage with challenging or difficult emotions, instead focusing on creating a false positive profile. 8．What may be a case of the burnt toast theory? A．Gaining rewards after paying efforts. B．Losing a job after forgetting to set an alarm. C．Meeting a future employer after missing a flight. D．Mending friendship after clearing misunderstandings. 9．What is the result of applying the burnt toast theory according to paragraph 3? A．Better judgement on fears. B．Richer experience from failures. C．The removal of daily inconveniences. D．The harvest of a positive mindset. 10．Which aspect of the theory does the last paragraph focus on? A．Would-be projects.

Researchers led by Jimenez-Lopez, of the University of Castile-La Mancha, noted there’s already solid evidence that exercise of any kind is a natural antidepressant. But what about something as easy as walking? To find out, they looked at data from high-quality studies on daily step counts and their links to mental health. The new review covered 33 studies with a total of more than 96,000 adults worldwide, including those who used fitness-tracker devices to calculate their daily steps. Compared to a baseline of 5,000 steps taken per day, folks who took even 1,000 more steps daily saw a 9% drop in their chances for developing depression, the researchers found. Those benefits quickly mounted up. Compared to folks walking 5,000 steps per day or less, those who walked 7,000 steps per day had a 31% lower chances for depression. “In addition, counts above 7,500 steps per day were associated with a 43% lower frequency of depression,” Jimenez-Lopez and colleagues wrote, and those trends held true for “all age groups, females and males.” There did seem to be a leveling out of mental health benefits at about 10,000 steps per day, the data showed. As has been observed in studies on mental health, up to a level of about 10,000 steps per day causes the chances for depression to decline. However, the researchers revealed that increasing the number of steps beyond this point may not lead to a significant reduction in depressive symptoms. Furthermore, the new findings add walking to many other forms of physical activity — weight training, yoga and even Tai Chi — as ways to help prevent depression. “Setting goals for the number of daily steps can be a rewarding and inclusive public health strategy for the prevention of depression,” the study suggested. 8．What can be inferred about the Spanish study from paragraph 1? A．It contradicts former study results. B．It looks into effects of any exercise. C．It focuses on depression treatment. D．It confirms the benefits of walking. 9．What drives changes in frequency of depression in Jimenez-Lopez’research? A．Step counts. B．Age range. C．Exercise type. D．Gender difference. 10．What can be concluded about walking over 10, 000 steps per day? A．Risks of other diseases drop sharply. B．Physical health improves dramatically. C．The stress level declines less obviously. D．Depressive symptoms totally disappear. 11．What is the best title for the text? A．Exercise Types: Comparing Benefits. B．Step Counts: A Natural Mood Controller. C．Fitness Trackers: Promoting Daily Activity. D．Public Health: Strategies Against Depression. Passage 10 主题语境：人与自然--章鱼和鱼群合作捕猎 词数：320+160 考点预测：细节理解题、推理判断题、主旨大意题。 押题指数：★★★★ In the Red Sea sandwiched between northeast Africa and the Arabian Peninsula, octopuses and different species of fish hunt together among the coral reefs. “It’s not just one octopus and one fish,” says Eduardo Sampaio, a behavioral biologist at the Max Planck Institute of Animal Behavior in Konstanz, Germany. “We’re talking about one octopus and five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten very different fish.” In a recently-published study, he and his colleagues argue the creatures are sharing the leadership as they make hunting decisions. Before this study, researchers had universally thought that the octopus was hunting by itself, and that the fish were freeloading (吃白食). But for Sampaio, these conclusions were largely drawn from looking at the situation from the surface. He wondered whether something more complex might be going on. So he decided to find out. “We can actually go with cameras, reconstruct everything in 3D, and try to see who’s following who,” Sampaio says. “But you have to find the octopus, an animal that has evolved not to be found,” he adds. “When you find it hunting, you should make sure that it continues hunting like you aren’t there and doesn’t escape.” After a month of diving, Sampaio managed to record hours of hunting of these unusual groups. “I instantly understood the fish weren’t just following the octopus around because you could see they moved in a stop-and-go pattern,” he says. “Once this stopping occurred, there were always fish that started to go around looking for prey (猎物). When the fish presented possible targets to the octopus, the octopus moved and selected the one it wanted.” Feeding is “first come, first serve”. But with the hunting happening over and over again, all the group members get to eat. And Sampaio says that the octopus punches (击打) the fish if the group is at a standstill for too long. 12．What might be a driving force for Sampaio’s study? A．Desire to challenge himself. B．Curiosity about the Red Sea. C．Interest in an unsolved problem. D．Doubt about some common beliefs. 13．What was challenging for Sampaio’s team? A．Reconstructing the hunting in 3D． B．Staying underwater for a long time. C．Finding and observing the group hunting. D．Identifying and sorting fish species in the sea. 14．How do the fish contribute to the group hunting? A．They explore the environment. B．They distract the possible prey. C．They protect the octopus from dangers. D．They make choices about possible targets. 15．Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text? A．Mystery under the Red Sea B．Rare mixed-species cooperation C．New survival strategy of octopuses D．Harmony between prey and hunters 押题猜想四：七选五高分突破（逻辑衔接+上下文推理） 限时：8min （原创试题） 题源出处： https://newsinhealth.nih.gov/2022/12/healthy-weight-control 主题语境：人与自我--保持健康体重 词数：322+59 考点预测：细节理解题。 押题理由：段首主题句、段尾总结句、过渡句、代词指代题​​​ Taking steps toward a healthy lifestyle—even small ones—can help you get on a path to a healthy weight. Calculating a Healthy Weight The definitions of overweight and obesity are based on body mass index, or BMI. 36 . Overweight for adults is a BMI between 25 and 29.9. Obesity is a BMI of 30 or greater. “BMI is quick and easy to obtain, but it’s not perfect,” says Dr. Susan Yanovski, an NIH expert on obesity and eating disorders. If your BMI is high because of extra body fat, aim to lose about one to two pounds per week. Cutting Down Calories To lose weight, experts suggest taking in about 500 fewer calories than you burn per day. The NIH Body Weight Planner can help you calculate exactly how many calories you need for your weight loss goals. 37 . Creating an eating plan based on your likes and dislikes can help you stick with it. You can use nutrition labels to estimate how many calories a food has. But be sure to check the serving sizes. Getting More Activity Experts recommend that adults get at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic（有氧） activity each week. 38 . Examples of moderate-intensity activities include brisk walking (faster than 2.5 miles per hour), swimming, and dancing. If you’re able, start increasing your physical activity. Doing so slowly can help prevent injuries. You can also break up moderate-intensity activity into short sessions. Every minute counts toward your weekly goal! 39 Creating new habits can help you lose and maintain your weight. Weigh yourself regularly to see if you’re meeting your weekly goals. You can use an app or journal to track your physical activity and food intake. 40 . Calculate whether you’re burning more calories than you’re taking in. Getting social support can help keep you motivated. Apps and social media sites may connect you with other people who support your goals. A. Staying on Track B. Aim for a Healthy Weight C.Changing lifestyle habits takes time. D. It is based on your height and weightE.Some devices can automatically track and record your activityF. It is anything that gets your heart rate up and gets you breathing harder G.The tool takes your age, sex, and level of physical activity into account 押题解读 新高考英语七选五语篇选材以说明文为主，偶尔会考查记叙文，文章结构清晰；主题语境多为人与自我或人与社会，源于生活，又高于生活。近三年新高考英语七选五考情统计如下： 2024年新高考I---主题语境：人与自我，主题内容：介绍了作者使用英语词典的经验和心得以及从中获得的乐趣 2024年新高考II---主题语境：人与社会，主题内容：介绍了如何避免“过度旅游”的现象。 2023年新高考I---主题语境：人与自我，主题内容：如何学会适度自我原谅。 2023年新高考II---主题语境：人与社会，主题内容：初学者如何开始绘画之旅。 2022年新高考I----主题语境：人与社会，主题内容：如何找到健身伙伴。 2022年新高考II---主题语境：人与自我，主题内容：如何写好文章。 押题主题语境：人与自我， 主题内容：保持健康体重。考查题型：段首句，段中句。 文章结构清晰，题目设置合理、难度适中。有段首主题句概括段落核心，有段中解释说明句，也有代词指代题。既考查了学生把握语篇逻辑和上下文衔接能力，又强化了学生对文章整体框架的分析能力。 英语试题历年来总是会反映到一些社会热点，今年体重管理无疑是社会热点。 Passage 1 主题语境：人与自我--第一印象对职业生涯的影响 词数：267+78 考点预测：段首主题句、段尾总结句、过渡句、代词指代题​ 押题指数：★★★★★ We all know that first impressions are important and that they are lasting. That’s why we work hard to make great first impressions. 16 First impressions might overshadow your abilities. When you are hired in an organization, a set of inferences are made about you. Making inferences is human nature. If you become known for your attention to details, you may never be seen as someone who can see the big picture. If you are the person who organizes all of the birthday celebrations, you may never be seen as management material. 17 First impressions can stamp you forever, often pre-determining the path of your career and how far you will be able to advance your career. These perceptions paint a picture of who people think you are. 18 This, in large part, is why your careers are held back, why you become frustrated, dissatisfied and even want to leave the present position. But it doesn’t have to come to that if you can unlock hidden aspects of your value. Talk about what you are reading or a project you are working on at home with coworkers and your manager when appropriate. This can demonstrate other skills you possess. Embrace (接受) new things and become knowledgeable about your company and industry. 19 Volunteer in your company. It is a good way to give yourself the opportunity for others to see you in a way that is outside of your defined role. 20 As people get to know you better, they will recognize your diverse interests and capabilities, potentially opening new doors for career advancement. A．Here are some useful suggestions for you. B．Arm yourself with as much knowledge as possible. C．Thus, you can contribute in fresh and unexpected ways. D．It is often extremely difficult for people to change them. E．Whatever labels, they prevent people seeing your other capacities. F．Nevertheless, the same first impressions can block our career progress. G．By expanding your knowledge and network, you can reshape others’ perceptions.

These gardens are beneficial to urban residents and play an important role in shaping an environmentally sustainable society. 11 . Community gardens offer an escape from the chaos of fast-paced urban life. 12 , creating a sense of peacefulness and inner balance. The simple act of digging hands into soil, planting seeds and witnessing the wonder of growth brings a sense of satisfaction and purpose. Community gardens serve as inclusive spaces where people from diverse backgrounds come together with a shared passion for nature and sustainability. 13 .They provide a friendly environment for social bonds. As gardeners tend to plants side by side, they build meaningful connections, making community gardens not just places for growing plants but also for nurturing relationships. In an era of rapid urbanization, community gardens act as a shelter for plants, insects and birds. The biodiversity they support contributes to the overall health of urban ecosystems. 14 . Through local, organic and sustainable practices, community gardeners take an active role in securing their food sources while reducing the environmental impact associated with conventional agriculture and long-distance transportation. Beyond the psychological benefits, community gardens offer advantages for physical health as well. Gardening involves various physical activities such as planting, weeding and harvesting, which provide gentle exercise and promote overall well-being. 15 , encouraging a positive and sustainable approach to nutrition.

If you’ve ever failed to reach an attainable goal because of delay or lack of commitment, I encourage you to read on. 16 Any goals you set for yourself should be specific. Studies have shown, for example, that when individuals make daily exercise commitments, they’re more likely to increase their fitness levels. 17 For instance, “walking 10,000 steps a day” is much better than “doing your best”. Some tasks are extremely challenging. In such cases, it can be helpful to create external motivators for yourself over the short-to-medium term. You might promise yourself a vacation for finishing a project or buy yourself a gift for losing weight. 18 For instance, rewarding weight loss with junk food sets back progress. When people work towards a goal, they usually start with strong motivation but then their effort decreases in the middle, when they are most likely to stop. 19 If you divide your goal into smaller steps, like setting weekly instead of three-month targets, you’ll have less time to fall into that unwanted decline. 20 The people who will best motivate you to accomplish certain tasks are not necessarily those who do the tasks well. Instead, they’re folks who share a big-picture goal with you. Thinking of those people and our desire to succeed on their behalf can help provide the powerful motivation we need to reach our goals. A woman may find boring work rewarding if she feels she is providing an example for her daughter. A．These approaches can help drive you forward. B．As social beings, we can use social influence wisely. C．But external rewards can backfire if mismatched with goals. D．Luckily, shortening the middle can help change this pattern. E．Concrete tasks are usually more effective than abstract ambitions. F．Support from loved ones can turn boring tasks into meaningful acts. G．Research has uncovered several ways to help you design smart rewards. Passage 4 主题语境：人与社会--感恩他人增强人际关系 词数：234+64 考点预测：段首主题句、段尾总结句、过渡句、代词指代题 押题指数：★★★★ One mindset that can significantly enhance your bonds with those you love is viewing people in your life as a prize. 16 , its key point lies in developing a deep appreciation for other people’s qualities and contributions, which should be based on genuine dispositions (性情) of the practitioners. Here’s why this approach matters. Boost self-respect. Feeling lucky to have someone in your life can enhance your self-worth. 17 : When you value another, you also feel appreciated in being chosen by someone that has common interests or topics. This mutual admiration can elevate the confidence of both people. 18 . Gratitude has a way of opening doors to honest and positive conversations. True gratitude lies in valuing who they are at their core. When you express appreciation for the qualities of those you love, it sets the tone for a relationship built on respect and understanding. Bring positive reinforcement. When you view others in your life as a prize, it inspires you to actively nurture your relationships. 19 , creating a cycle of positive reinforcement. This, in turn, strengthens your bonds and deepens your emotional connections with others. Reduce self-satisfaction. 20 . The prize mindset is most effective when it’s held in common. Viewing those close to you as a prize encourages mindfulness, effort and patience, reminding you to cherish their presence and put effort into maintaining a fulfilling connection. A．It is a two-way street B．Value formal conversations C．Promote healthy communication D．While this concept may initially sound like a competition E．Expressing love, respect, and appreciation becomes second nature F．Now that one-side selflessness appears to be the least useless method G．Relationships often become weaker when both take each other for granted Passage 5 主题语境：人与自我--实现梦想 词数：268+116 考点预测：段首主题句、段尾总结句、过渡句、代词指代题​ 押题指数：★★★★ Dreams are the driving force behind our ambitions and the foundation of our future success. However, turning dreams into reality requires more than just wishful thinking. 16 Here are some practical steps to help you achieve your dreams. ●Set realistic aims. The first step is to have a clear vision of what you want to achieve. An indistinct idea like“I want to be successful” is not enough. Instead, write down your dream in detail, as this will serve as your roadmap. 17 ●Take actions. Dreams remain dreams unless you take action. 18 Start working on it today, even if it's just a small step. Procrastination(拖延) is the enemy of progress.Remember, every great achievement begins with the decision to try. ●Stay Persistent. The path to achieving your dreams is rarely smooth. 19 During these times, remind yourself why you started and stay committed to your goals. Persistence is key to overcoming obstacles. Failure is a part of the journey. Instead of being discouraged, use them as learning opportunities. Analyze what went wrong, adjust your approach, and keep moving forward. ● 20 A positive mindset is crucial for success. Trust your abilities and follow the process. Visualize yourself achieving your dream. Don't forget to celebrate small victories along the way. Confidence and optimism will fuel your journey. A．Follow your heart. B．Believe in yourself. C．Failure is not the opposite of success. D．It demands planning, devotion and determination. E．Then break it down into smaller, achievable goals. F．Outline detailed steps you need to reach your goals. G．You will face challenges, setbacks, and moments of self-doubt.

When I was a child, I often accompanied 41 her on her morning walks. It was a time when we could share stories and laughter 42 the fact that she walked with a slight limp (跛行). Our walks often took us to the local 43 near our house, where the sounds of birds and whispering leaves created a 44 atmosphere. There, she would sit on a bench and watch me play, her eyes filled with joy. As I grew older, I began to 45 the deeper meaning of those walks. They were more than just physical exercise; they were a bond between us, a way of sharing life’s simple 46 . My grandmother taught me that happiness can be found in the smallest things, like the wonderful feel of the grass between my toes or the sight of a butterfly flying 47 in the air. One day, as we were walking, she suddenly stopped and 48 to a flower in the distance. “Look at that,” she said, “its 49 is so pure and untouched.” I looked and saw a small, delicate flower blooming among the weeds. It was a simple yet 50 moment that taught me to seek the beauty in everyday life. As the years passed, I found myself facing many challenges and struggles. But whenever I felt 51 , I would think of my grandmother and our morning walks. I would remember how she viewed the world with such 52 and love, and I would try to do the same.

Moonmilk, a cake and ice cream shop nearby, was hiring, so I went in for a 21 shift. While I 22 just set out to earn some extra money during the summer, the bonds and memories I made there turned out to be more 23 than any paycheck. Once, a man who works for the union of the local movie theater came in to place a(n) 24 . He wanted a cake to celebrate a 25 he’d had in stopping the theater from being evicted (驱逐) by its landlord. Moonmilk’s owner was touched by the story and 26 payment for the cake. Later, the union leader — so moved by the gesture — delivered free movie tickets to Moonmilk staff. The older women customers are among my favorites. Their concern is 27 ; they often wonder if I’m okay and tell me I look tired. One regular, always alone and smiling, is kind and generous, ordering methodically and always 28 we have the best ice cream in the city. There’s also the guy who comes in frequently to ask if we have the chocolate orange flavor that we only ever have at Christmas. I always have to say no, but his 29 brings me joy, especially on days when I’m tired. As with any job, there are 30 moments. My wrist often hurts from repeatedly scooping out ice cream, and it’s always annoying when a group of people come in and take way too long to order, holding up all the others 31 . In the fall, my full-time job’s schedule becomes more 32 and I know I’ll have to scale back my shifts. I’ll miss the 33 of the summer season and will 34 my favorite customers less often. But the interactions and connections I’ve made will sustain me until at least next summer.
