第二部分 阅读理解(共两节,共40分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,共30分)
阅读下面短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
In a growing number of schools, educators believe that having students take part by starting with practical problems is a great motivator. Project-based learning that freely crosses disciplines provides an education superior to the traditional “maths at age nine, history at ten, literature at eleven” structure. Examples of projects applicable to the here and now are as follows:
Soil Superheroes Project King Middle School, Maine
African Wildlife DNA Project High Tech High, California
Seventh graders learn about soil bacteria (细菌) by creating multimedia information brochures. They consult professional microbiologists and cartoonists, conduct research, and then distribute their works to local garden centers and flower shops.
An eleventh grade biology class uses DNA to help protect African wildlife. The students share their findings with wildlife-protection officials and have traveled to Tanzania to lead bushmeat-identification workshops.
Water Wheel Project Ferry way School, Massachusetts
Bridge Project Kentucky Elementary School, Ohio
Fifth-graders explore history, science, technology, and engineering by designing their own water wheels. By the time they visit the nearby Saugus Iron Works, which dates back to the 1640s, they’ve already tested and mastered the centuries-old technology.
Students conduct surveys, do research, build models and take field trips with the goal of determining the best kind of new bridge to build over the Ohio River. Students don’t restrict themselves to one discipline but rather look into maths, literature, history, science — whatever is appropriate to the study.
1. What is the characteristic of project-based learning?
A. Following strict disciplines. B. Engaging in real-world issues.
C. Starting subjects at different ages. D. Adopting teacher-centered class modes.
2. Which project includes a field trip to a historic site?
A. Soil Superheroes Project. B. African Wildlife DNA Project.
C. Water Wheel Project. D. Bridge Project.
3. What is highlighted in Bridge Project?
A. Convenience. B. Integration. C. Efficiency. D. Popularity.
B
“It’s not unusual for guests to feel emotional when they discover the story behind our food,” says Patrick Navis. “Not to mention when they taste it. One even cried with happiness.” The setting for these tearful scenes? Navis’s restaurant in a Dutch city. Here, the owner and his team create experimental food using herbs, roots, flowers and nuts— some common, others less so.
Most of these ingredients come from the Ketelbroek Food Forest nearby. To the untrained eye, it’s like an ordinary wood. But there’s one key difference: everything in it is edible (可食用的). It was set up in 2009 by Dutch botanist and environmentalist Noah Eck as an experiment in slow farming, to see what would happen if the right combination of food plants were left to grow together like a natural forest, without chemicals.
“It’s the first ‘food forest’ of its kind in Europe and we’re one of the few restaurants around the world cooperating in this way,” says Navis. “We have over 400 different species of edible plants we plan our menus around, including some we previously knew little about.” He harvests the ingredients and, with his fellow chefs, works them into beautifully presented tasting menus, served in a dining room hidden in the backstreets of the city,
“To us, fine dining is not about the fame of a restaurant, its location, expensive decoration, fancy cooking and wine list,” says Navis. “It’s about adding value through creativity and using ingredients nobody knows of, which are grown with great attention.” However, he adds, luxury cooking can be about enhancing everyday ingredients, too.
“When looking at cooking in this way, who can argue that caviar (鱼子酱), for example, is more valuable than a carrot grown with specialist knowledge?”
Experimentation is extremely important to Navis. In the next five years, he hopes to open an outdoor restaurant. But for now, the most important thing is to continue focusing on how plants are being grown and the perennial system used in the Food Forest, reducing the need for replanting each season.
4. What can we learn about Navis’s restaurant?
A. It is known for its rare food sources. B. It serves food with moving stories.
C. It offers experimental food for free. D. It is well received by its guests.
5. How is Ketelbrock Food Forest different from ordinary woods?
A. It is a natural forest. B. Diverse plants coexist in it.
C. It provides safe food ingredients. D. Plants there take longer to grow.
6. What is the key element of fine dining according to Navis?
A. Convenient locations. B. Expensive ingredients.
C. Innovative menus. D. Fancy cooking techniques.
7. What does “the perennial system” in the last paragraph probably refer to?
A. Farming with proper use of chemicals. B. The sustainable farming practice.
C. Natural farming without human intervention. D. An experimental farm for an outdoor restaurant.
C
“Digital switching” is a term that refers to the modern habit of swiping (刷) through and fast-forwarding online videos. Researchers from Canada did some exploration of it.
Kay Y. Y. Tam, a psychology researcher, launched the study after noticing herself — and pretty much everyone else — swiping through online videos. This behavior was connected with the “Boredom Feedback Model”, a theory she had published in 2021. Boredom, she proposed, is rooted in attention shifts. These shifts often occur when there’s a gap between how engaged people actually feel and how engaged they want to feel. The unpleasant emotion can develop when a situation lacks novelty or meaning.
“As digital switching involves frequent attention shifts, I wondered how this behavior might influence our feelings of boredom,” Tam said.
In her study, more than 1,200 participants, many of them university students, first watched a single video for ten minutes. They were then presented with seven shorter videos, with the option to skip to the next. On average, they skipped eight times — but reported feeling more bored and less engaged when they watched the single video. Participants had a similar experience in another similar experiment.
“I’m convinced that switching, when it comes to videos, is not a good idea if the goal is to have an enjoyable experience,” said Erin Westgate, a professor of psychology. “Sitting and toughing it out is likely a better choice.” The new findings add to a growing body of evidence that boredom is on the rise, despite a world filled with content we can access at all times. People who are bored often turn to their phones, only to feel more bored. Swiping on social media has also been linked to increased feelings of boredom.
Boredom can motivate people to explore their environment and to stop investing time in an activity that has little to offer. However, if we rely too much on quick escapes, it would be like an animal jumping from tree to tree in search of food without staying long enough to see if a tree bears fruit. That animal risks starvation.
8. What is the cause of attention shifts according to Tam’s theory?
A. The unsatisfied desire. B. The feeling of boredom.
C. The degree of engagement. D. The lack of emotion.
9. What does Tam’s study of “digital switching” focus on?
A. Its reason. B. Its consequence.
C. The solution to it. D. The theory behind it.
10. What is the main purpose of the last paragraph?
A. To solve a problem. B. To make a suggestion.
C. To raise a question. D. To give a warning.
11. What does the comparison between “digital switching” and an animal jumping from tree to tree imply?
A. Digital switching can lead to a waste of time and effort.
B. Animals are more efficient than humans in searching for resources.
C. Boredom is a natural response to unproductive activities.
D. Quick escapes can prevent us from achieving meaningful engagement.
D
In recent years, to monitor biodiversity and perceive how changes in ecosystems affect migratory (迁徙的) routes, researchers and conservationists have focused on tracking migratory bird populations worldwide. These birds, which travel thousands of kilometers between breeding and wintering grounds, face numerous threats, including habitat loss, climate change, and human activities. Using state-of-the-art satellite technology, scientists have managed to collect large datasets on bird movements, providing crucial insights into their migratory patterns and paternal risks.
However, despite the abundance of tracking data, a recent study from the University of Cambridge underscores that significant gaps in our understanding of many species still exist. “While we have a vast amount of tracking data, we often overlook smaller migratory species or those that travel less popular routes,” explains Dr. Emma Lewis, the study’s lead author. “Our reliance on satellite tags has also led us to focus mainly on larger species that can carry the weight of the tracking devices, leaving smaller birds, which are often just as vulnerable, underrepresented in our data.”
The study examined data from over a million tracking records of migratory birds and identified several areas with limited information. Birds from remote areas, for instance, were much less likely to be tracked due to accessibility issues. Additionally, there was a strong bias (偏见) toward species that are already of high interest to the public, such as eagles or storks, rather than smaller, less prominent birds. Dr. Lewis and her team believe this bias could lead to conservation resources being disproportionately allocated to certain species while neglecting others that may be equally at risk.
To address these issues, Dr. Lewis suggests expanding tracking efforts to include more diverse bird populations. “By collaborating with local researchers and investing in lighter, more efficient tracking technology, we can gather data on a broader range of species,” she explains. “Encouraging birdwatchers to report sightings of less common migratory birds could fill current data gaps and offer a more comprehensive image of global migratory patterns.” This combined approach could ensure that future conservation efforts are better informed and more inclusive, ultimately contributing to the protection of all migratory bird species.
12. What’s the main issue with current migratory bird tracking?
A. Heavily relying on large databasets. B. Ignoring short-distance migrations.
C. Primarily tracking larger bird species. D. Focusing on migration in breeding seasons.
13. What contributes to data gaps in migratory bird tracking?
A. Inaccurate public sightings. B. Expensive tracking devices.
C. Lack of conservation funding. D. Limitations of tracking technology.
14. What is the researchers’ concern about conservation resources?
A. Desperate shortage in popular routes. B. Uneven allocation to certain species.
C. Rare accessibility to larger bird species D. Irresponsible overuse in remote habitats
15. How does Dr. Lewis suggest improving bird migration data?
A. Limit resources to high-profile species.
B. Launch new programs for endangered species.
C. Enhance tracking methods for prominent bird species.
D. Engage the public in observing underrepresented birds.

A
In a growing number of schools, educators believe that having students take part by starting with practical problems is a great motivator. Project-based learning that freely crosses disciplines provides an education superior to the traditional “maths at age nine, history at ten, literature at eleven” structure. Examples of projects applicable to the here and now are as follows:
Soil Superheroes Project King Middle School, Maine
African Wildlife DNA Project High Tech High, California
Seventh graders learn about soil bacteria (细菌) by creating multimedia information brochures. They consult professional microbiologists and cartoonists, conduct research, and then distribute their works to local garden centers and flower shops.
An eleventh grade biology class uses DNA to help protect African wildlife. The students share their findings with wildlife-protection officials and have traveled to Tanzania to lead bushmeat-identification workshops.
Water Wheel Project Ferry way School, Massachusetts
Bridge Project Kentucky Elementary School, Ohio
Fifth-graders explore history, science, technology, and engineering by designing their own water wheels. By the time they visit the nearby Saugus Iron Works, which dates back to the 1640s, they’ve already tested and mastered the centuries-old technology.
Students conduct surveys, do research, build models and take field trips with the goal of determining the best kind of new bridge to build over the Ohio River. Students don’t restrict themselves to one discipline but rather look into maths, literature, history, science — whatever is appropriate to the study.
1. What is the characteristic of project-based learning?
A. Following strict disciplines. B. Engaging in real-world issues.
C. Starting subjects at different ages. D. Adopting teacher-centered class modes.
2. Which project includes a field trip to a historic site?
A. Soil Superheroes Project. B. African Wildlife DNA Project.
C. Water Wheel Project. D. Bridge Project.
3. What is highlighted in Bridge Project?

“It’s not unusual for guests to feel emotional when they discover the story behind our food,” says Patrick Navis. “Not to mention when they taste it. One even cried with happiness.” The setting for these tearful scenes? Navis’s restaurant in a Dutch city. Here, the owner and his team create experimental food using herbs, roots, flowers and nuts— some common, others less so.
Most of these ingredients come from the Ketelbroek Food Forest nearby. To the untrained eye, it’s like an ordinary wood. But there’s one key difference: everything in it is edible (可食用的). It was set up in 2009 by Dutch botanist and environmentalist Noah Eck as an experiment in slow farming, to see what would happen if the right combination of food plants were left to grow together like a natural forest, without chemicals.
“It’s the first ‘food forest’ of its kind in Europe and we’re one of the few restaurants around the world cooperating in this way,” says Navis. “We have over 400 different species of edible plants we plan our menus around, including some we previously knew little about.” He harvests the ingredients and, with his fellow chefs, works them into beautifully presented tasting menus, served in a dining room hidden in the backstreets of the city,
“To us, fine dining is not about the fame of a restaurant, its location, expensive decoration, fancy cooking and wine list,” says Navis. “It’s about adding value through creativity and using ingredients nobody knows of, which are grown with great attention.” However, he adds, luxury cooking can be about enhancing everyday ingredients, too.
“When looking at cooking in this way, who can argue that caviar (鱼子酱), for example, is more valuable than a carrot grown with specialist knowledge?”
Experimentation is extremely important to Navis. In the next five years, he hopes to open an outdoor restaurant. But for now, the most important thing is to continue focusing on how plants are being grown and the perennial system used in the Food Forest, reducing the need for replanting each season.
4. What can we learn about Navis’s restaurant?
A. It is known for its rare food sources. B. It serves food with moving stories.
C. It offers experimental food for free. D. It is well received by its guests.
5. How is Ketelbrock Food Forest different from ordinary woods?
A. It is a natural forest. B. Diverse plants coexist in it.
C. It provides safe food ingredients. D. Plants there take longer to grow.
6. What is the key element of fine dining according to Navis?
A. Convenient locations. B. Expensive ingredients.
C. Innovative menus. D. Fancy cooking techniques.
7. What does “the perennial system” in the last paragraph probably refer to?
A. Farming with proper use of chemicals. B. The sustainable farming practice.
C. Natural farming without human intervention. D. An experimental farm for an outdoor restaurant.
【答案】4. D 5. C 6. C 7. B
【解析】

【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段 ““It’s not unusual for guests to feel emotional when they discover the story behind our food,” says Patrick Navis. “Not to mention when they taste it. One even cried with happiness.””(“当客人发现我们食物背后的故事时,他们感到情绪激动是很常见的 ”,帕特里克·纳维斯说。“更别提当他们品尝食物的时候了。甚至有人高兴地哭了。”)可推断,Navis的餐馆受到客人的欢迎。故选D。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段 “To the untrained eye, it’s like an ordinary wood. But there’s one key difference: everything in it is edible. ”(对于外行来说,它看起来像一片普通的树林。但有一个关键的区别:树林里的一切都是可食用的。)可知,Ketelbrock食品森林与普通森林不同之处在于,该森林提供安全的食材。故选C。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段““ To us, fine dining is not about the fame of a restaurant, its location, expensive decoration, fancy cooking and wine list,” says Navis. “ It’s about adding value through creativity and using ingredients nobody knows of, which are grown with great attention.” ” (纳维斯说:“对我们来说,美食不仅仅关乎餐厅的名声、位置、昂贵的装饰、精致的烹饪和酒单。”“而是通过创意为食物增加价值,使用那些鲜为人知且精心培育的食材。”)可知,对于Navis来说,优质餐饮的关键在于创新的菜单。故选C。
【7题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线部分前文“But for now, the most important thing is to continue focusing on how plants are being grown ”(但目前最重要的是,我们仍需继续关注植物是如何生长的。)以及后文“reducing the need for replanting each season ”(减少每个季节重新种植的需要)可知,Navis认为重要的是可以创造可持续农业,这样就不用每个季节重新种植,划线词与B选项“可持续农业实践”语意一致。故选B。
C
“Digital switching” is a term that refers to the modern habit of swiping (刷) through and fast-forwarding online videos. Researchers from Canada did some exploration of it.
Kay Y. Y. Tam, a psychology researcher, launched the study after noticing herself — and pretty much everyone else — swiping through online videos. This behavior was connected with the “Boredom Feedback Model”, a theory she had published in 2021. Boredom, she proposed, is rooted in attention shifts. These shifts often occur when there’s a gap between how engaged people actually feel and how engaged they want to feel. The unpleasant emotion can develop when a situation lacks novelty or meaning.
“As digital switching involves frequent attention shifts, I wondered how this behavior might influence our feelings of boredom,” Tam said.
In her study, more than 1,200 participants, many of them university students, first watched a single video for ten minutes. They were then presented with seven shorter videos, with the option to skip to the next. On average, they skipped eight times — but reported feeling more bored and less engaged when they watched the single video. Participants had a similar experience in another similar experiment.
“I’m convinced that switching, when it comes to videos, is not a good idea if the goal is to have an enjoyable experience,” said Erin Westgate, a professor of psychology. “Sitting and toughing it out is likely a better choice.” The new findings add to a growing body of evidence that boredom is on the rise, despite a world filled with content we can access at all times. People who are bored often turn to their phones, only to feel more bored. Swiping on social media has also been linked to increased feelings of boredom.
Boredom can motivate people to explore their environment and to stop investing time in an activity that has little to offer. However, if we rely too much on quick escapes, it would be like an animal jumping from tree to tree in search of food without staying long enough to see if a tree bears fruit. That animal risks starvation.
8. What is the cause of attention shifts according to Tam’s theory?
A. The unsatisfied desire. B. The feeling of boredom.
C. The degree of engagement. D. The lack of emotion.
9. What does Tam’s study of “digital switching” focus on?
A. Its reason. B. Its consequence.
C. The solution to it. D. The theory behind it.
10. What is the main purpose of the last paragraph?
A. To solve a problem. B. To make a suggestion.
C. To raise a question. D. To give a warning.
11. What does the comparison between “digital switching” and an animal jumping from tree to tree imply?
A. Digital switching can lead to a waste of time and effort.
B. Animals are more efficient than humans in searching for resources.
C. Boredom is a natural response to unproductive activities.
D. Quick escapes can prevent us from achieving meaningful engagement.
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了“数字切换”这一行为,包括其与注意力转移、无聊感的关系,以及过度依赖 “数字切换” 可能带来的问题。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Boredom, she proposed, is rooted in attention shifts. These shifts often occur when there’s a gap between how engaged people actually feel and how engaged they want to feel. The unpleasant emotion can develop when a situation lacks novelty or meaning.(她提出,无聊源于注意力转移。当人们实际的投入程度与他们想要的投入程度之间存在差距时,这些转移经常会发生。当一种情况缺乏新奇感或意义时,这种不愉快的情绪就会产生。)”可知,当人们实际投入程度与想要的投入程度有差距时,注意力就会转移,由此可知,注意力转移的原因是人们未满足的欲望。故选A项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的““As digital switching involves frequent attention shifts, I wondered how this behavior might influence our feelings of boredom,” Tam said.( ‘由于数字切换涉及频繁的注意力转移,我想知道这种行为可能如何影响我们的无聊感,’塔姆说。)”以及第四段中的“On average, they skipped eight times — but reported feeling more bored and less engaged when they watched the single video. Participants had a similar experience in another similar experiment.(平均来说,他们跳过了八次——但当他们观看单个视频时,他们表示感到更无聊,投入度更低。参与者在另一个类似的实验中也有类似的经历。)”可知,塔姆对“数字切换”的研究重点是这种行为的后果,即人们在进行“数字切换”后感到更无聊和投入度更低。故选B项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Boredom can motivate people to explore their environment and to stop investing time in an activity that has little to offer. However, if we rely too much on quick escapes, it would be like an animal jumping from tree to tree in search of food without staying long enough to see if a tree bears fruit. That animal risks starvation.(无聊可以激励人们探索他们的环境,并停止在几乎没有回报的活动上投入时间。然而,如果我们过度依赖快速逃避,就像一只动物从一棵树跳到另一棵树寻找食物,却没有停留足够的时间去看一棵树是否结果。那只动物有饿死的风险。)”可知,最后一段通过把过度依赖快速逃避(“数字切换”)比喻成动物在林间跳跃寻找食物最终可能导致饿死,来警示读者这种行为可能导致的不好的结果;由此可知,最后一段的主要目的是发出警告,故选D项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“However, if we rely too much on quick escapes, it would be like an animal jumping from tree to tree in search of food without staying long enough to see if a tree bears fruit. That animal risks starvation.(然而,如果我们过度依赖快速逃避,就像一只动物从一棵树跳到另一棵树寻找食物,却没有停留足够的时间去看一棵树是否结果。那只动物有饿死的风险。)”可知,将“数字切换”与动物从一棵树跳到另一棵树作比较,意味着快速逃避(“数字切换”)会阻止我们实现有意义的投入,就像动物没有在一棵树上停留足够时间,无法收获果实一样。故选D项。
D
In recent years, to monitor biodiversity and perceive how changes in ecosystems affect migratory (迁徙的) routes, researchers and conservationists have focused on tracking migratory bird populations worldwide. These birds, which travel thousands of kilometers between breeding and wintering grounds, face numerous threats, including habitat loss, climate change, and human activities. Using state-of-the-art satellite technology, scientists have managed to collect large datasets on bird movements, providing crucial insights into their migratory patterns and paternal risks.
However, despite the abundance of tracking data, a recent study from the University of Cambridge underscores that significant gaps in our understanding of many species still exist. “While we have a vast amount of tracking data, we often overlook smaller migratory species or those that travel less popular routes,” explains Dr. Emma Lewis, the study’s lead author. “Our reliance on satellite tags has also led us to focus mainly on larger species that can carry the weight of the tracking devices, leaving smaller birds, which are often just as vulnerable, underrepresented in our data.”
The study examined data from over a million tracking records of migratory birds and identified several areas with limited information. Birds from remote areas, for instance, were much less likely to be tracked due to accessibility issues. Additionally, there was a strong bias (偏见) toward species that are already of high interest to the public, such as eagles or storks, rather than smaller, less prominent birds. Dr. Lewis and her team believe this bias could lead to conservation resources being disproportionately allocated to certain species while neglecting others that may be equally at risk.
To address these issues, Dr. Lewis suggests expanding tracking efforts to include more diverse bird populations. “By collaborating with local researchers and investing in lighter, more efficient tracking technology, we can gather data on a broader range of species,” she explains. “Encouraging birdwatchers to report sightings of less common migratory birds could fill current data gaps and offer a more comprehensive image of global migratory patterns.” This combined approach could ensure that future conservation efforts are better informed and more inclusive, ultimately contributing to the protection of all migratory bird species.
12. What’s the main issue with current migratory bird tracking?
A. Heavily relying on large databasets. B. Ignoring short-distance migrations.
C. Primarily tracking larger bird species. D. Focusing on migration in breeding seasons.
13. What contributes to data gaps in migratory bird tracking?
A. Inaccurate public sightings. B. Expensive tracking devices.
C. Lack of conservation funding. D. Limitations of tracking technology.
14. What is the researchers’ concern about conservation resources?
A. Desperate shortage in popular routes. B. Uneven allocation to certain species.
C. Rare accessibility to larger bird species D. Irresponsible overuse in remote habitats
15. How does Dr. Lewis suggest improving bird migration data?
A. Limit resources to high-profile species.
B. Launch new programs for endangered species.
C. Enhance tracking methods for prominent bird species.
D. Engage the public in observing underrepresented birds.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了近年来科学家和研究人员使用先进的卫星技术追踪候鸟迁徙,以监测生物多样性和了解生态系统变化对迁徙路线的影响,但仍然存在一些问题,比如数据缺口和偏见,并探讨了解决方法。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Our reliance on satellite tags has also led us to focus mainly on larger species that can carry the weight of the tracking devices, leaving smaller birds, which are often just as vulnerable, underrepresented in our data. (我们对卫星标签的依赖也导致我们主要关注能够承受跟踪设备重量的大型物种,而在我们的数据中,往往同样脆弱的小型鸟类的代表性不足。)”可知,当前候鸟追踪的主要问题是主要追踪大型鸟类,而体型较小、同样脆弱的鸟类在我们的数据中代表性不足,故选C。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Birds from remote areas, for instance, were much less likely to be tracked due to accessibility issues. Additionally, there was a strong bias (偏见) toward species that are already of high interest to the public, such as eagles or storks, rather than smaller, less prominent birds. Dr. Lewis and her team believe this bias could lead to conservation resources being disproportionately allocated to certain species while neglecting others that may be equally at risk. (例如,由于可及性问题,来自偏远地区的鸟类被追踪的可能性要小得多。此外,人们对鹰或鹳等公众已经非常感兴趣的物种有强烈的偏见,而不是较小的、不太出名的鸟类。刘易斯博士和她的团队认为,这种偏见可能导致保护资源被不成比例地分配给某些物种,而忽视了其他可能同样面临风险的物种。)”可知,导致候鸟追踪中的数据缺口的原因是追踪技术的局限性,故选D。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Dr. Lewis and her team believe this bias could lead to conservation resources being disproportionately allocated to certain species while neglecting others that may be equally at risk. (刘易斯博士和她的团队认为,这种偏见可能导致保护资源被不成比例地分配给某些物种,而忽视了其他可能同样面临风险的物种。)”可知,研究人员对资源保护的担忧是分配给某些物种的资源不均衡,故选B。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Encouraging birdwatchers to report sightings of less common migratory birds could fill current data gaps and offer a more comprehensive image of global migratory patterns. (鼓励观鸟者报告看到的不常见的候鸟,可以填补目前的数据空白,并提供一个更全面的全球迁徙模式的图像。)”可知,刘易斯博士建议让公众参与观察代表性不足的鸟类,以改进鸟类迁徙数据,故选D。

(在他三十多岁的时候,许多职业篮球运动员通常都会退役,山姆仍然在国家篮球队。)”可知,此处描述山姆在篮球方面的成就,尽管他少年时没有专注,临近青少年才专注篮球,但这并未阻碍他的长远发展。选项D“但从长远来看,这似乎并没有阻碍他的发展。”恰好说明这个转折和强调。故选D。
【19题详解】
根据上文“Top athletes like Jack at the peak of their abilities do spend more time on focused, deliberate practice than their peers (同龄人). But scientists also find that potential champions typically devote less time to deliberate practice in childhood, but more to “sampling” various activities. (像杰克这样处于巅峰状态的顶尖运动员确实比同龄人花更多的时间进行专注、深思熟虑的练习。但科学家们也发现,潜在的冠军通常在童年时期花更少的时间进行刻意练习,而是更多地“抽样”各种活动。)”可知,科学家发现潜在的冠军通常在童年时花较少时间于刻意练习,而是更多地尝试各种活动。选项E“事实上,山姆的成功之路要普遍得多,但却鲜为人知。”符合语境, 指出实际上像山姆这样的成功之路更为普遍,但却较少被提及。故选E。
【20题详解】
根据上文“In a world that demands people to specialize early, we face a challenge to keep the benefits of diverse experiences and delayed concentration. There’s a need for those with Jack’s early focus. (在一个要求人们尽早专注的世界里,我们面临着一个挑战,即保持多样化体验和延迟专注的好处。需要像杰克那样早期关注的人。)” 可知,这里已经提到了对于早期专注的需求,那么接下来应该会讲到世界对多样性和延迟专注的需求。选项C“世界日益复杂,也需要更多像山姆这样的人”符合语境,衔接下文恰当。故选C。

The ceremony is to be held at 2 p.m. this Saturday at the school hall. It will begin with a warm welcome from our school leadership. Then we will watch a video of our highlights in the past three years and be issued our adulthood certificates, after which a student representative will share insights from his life journey. In the end, we will take a collective oath, reminding us of our commitment to the personal growth and contributions to society.
This event symbolizes students’ growth and social responsibilities. Please arrive promptly in your school uniforms, ready to embrace this momentous milestone. Looking forward to this special day with all of you.
