The flowers are in bloom, the temperature is rising, and some children are going to enjoy a break from homework and tests. But for parents, spring break can be a struggle. What do you do with your children when you’re preoccupied with work? One option: Enrolling them in spring break camp. These day-or week-long programs are aimed to keep children active and enrich their bodies and minds. Here are some of our favorite spring break camp ideas for 2025. Museum Spring Break Camps From children’s centers and zoos to art galleries, museums offer countless camp options. For example, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the South State Museum and the Children’s Museum all offer camps for school-aged kids. The Central Park Zoo even boasts its own spring break camp. For more information about dates, rates, and availability, visit the website of your local museum, zoo, or learning center. Tech-Focused Spring Break Camps Whether you’ve got a Minecraft fan or a coding enthusiast, you can likely find tech spring break camps in your region. For example, iCAMP offers school holiday camps, both in-person and online, focused on teaching STEAM topics like robotics, graphic art, science,3D printing, and more. Check your local center for more information. Activity Hero Spring Break Camps No matter what they’ re interested in, Activity Hero has something for ages 8 — 10 with a friendly price tag (标签). From guitar and musical theater to chess and game design, you’ll also find online spring break camps for March to mid-April with Activity Hero. Camp lengths vary. Spring Break Sports Camps If your kid is eager to get active after months of classroom lessons, consider the cost-efficient Sports Camp for kids aged 7 and under.

The company simply went through serious changes, and my position was no longer needed. They were great to me when I worked there, and they gave me a small severance package (辞退补偿.) I was 55 at the time. I was more than a bit anxiety-ridden, as I wasn’t in a position to retire, and I was concerned about the prospects of being rehired at this age. The good news is that I was a saver, had no debt and always lived simply. My husband’s job carried the benefits. I woke up every morning at 4 a. m. to consider how best to use my resources, and ended up starting a small business. Once I started, I made mistakes and messed things up, but kept educating myself more and more. There were tough times that were not easy to get through, but I managed to keep going. After about 18 months, it was working! Everything fell into place, and the train finally started going down the track! Now, I wake up each day and think, “I own a small business!” My husband even took early retirement to partner with me. While we are not making $1 million we have crossed over into six digits (数位) over the past few years. We run our business out of a home office. And I offer a service based on my knowledge from my previous job that I lost. Now several times a month, friends and former workmates reach out to us to ask how they can also get started like what we do. Though we’re busy, we take the time to talk with them sometimes. I know they really need help. Nowadays it’s easy to lose our jobs. Luckily, we’ve gained work experience, which can be really helpful if we want to start our own business. So don’t be too frustrated if you lose your job. It might be a new opportunity for you. 22. How did the author feel immediately after losing her job? A. Relieved but uncertain about the future. B. Frustrated and unwilling to work again. C. Anxious but financially prepared. D. Confident in starting her own business. 23. What can we say about the author’s small business? A. It was full of ups and downs. B. It used up the author's resources. C. It lasted for one and a half years. D. It forced her husband to retire earlier. 24. Which of the following words can best describe the author? A. Brave and innovative. B. Creative and honest. C. Independent and strict. D. Determined and considerate. 25. What message does the author want to give us? A. We should keep educating ourselves. B. When one door closes, another opens. C. People should start their own business. D. When a friend asks, there is no tomorrow. C In 2002, poet Michael Palma published a translation of Inferno by Dante (但丁), the first part of The Divine Comedy. This December, he released a translation of the full poem, even making adjustments to his original Inferno. “The rhythm or pattern of the poem seemed looser,” Palma said, so he revised it. For this new translation, Palma aimed to stick to Dante’s terza rima rhyme pattern. In the original, the first and third lines rhyme, and the second line sets up the rhyme for the next group. Here’s how Palma’s version of Canto 1 of Purgatorio starts: “Right now, my small boat of wisdom raises its sails, ready to sail through the dangerous waters and leave this rough sea behind.” Approaching the translation this way is challenging as one can’t focus on just three lines at a time. Many English translations use free poetry or a looser rhyme, which Palma admits can be good. But he believes not reproducing the rhymes means losing much of the poem’s sound and music. He also thinks it fails to show readers what Dante did. Palma isn’t the first to attempt this. So, what’s the value in another translation of The Divine Comedy? Joseph Luzzi, a literature professor, said translation is a form of autobiography, which has no fixed rules. Luzzi recently published his translation of Dante’s Vita Nuova, a less-known work. It portrays a young Dante’s experience. In these works, themes like love, the exploration of human nature, and the pursuit of self-improvement are noticeable. Translating his work keeps it alive, and its relevance is clear. We can learn from these translations and discussions that literature has the power to connect different times and cultures. It encourages us to think deeply, explore different ways of expression, and continuously improve our understanding and appreciation of the world. 26. Which of the following words best describes Palma’s translation of Dante’s Inferno? A. Imaginative. B. Faithful. C. Innovative. D. Complex. 27. What was the main difficulty Palma faced in his new translation? A. It was pattern-challenging. B. It was culture-bound. C. It was time-consuming. D. It was word-limited. 28. Which of the following statements is Luzzi most likely to agree with? A. Translation is not applicable to less-known works. B. Translation demands strict pattern. C. Translation changes outdated themes. D. Translation is a self-reflective act. 29. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To compare different translation methods of Dante’s works. B. To analyze the challenges of preserving poetic rhythm in translation. C. To highlight the cultural and timeless value of translating literature. D. To introduce two scholars’ contributions to Dantean studies. D Every time AI drafts an e-mail or an image, the planet pays for it. Making two images can consume as much energy as charging a smartphone. By 2027, the global AI industry could annually consume as much electricity as the Netherlands. And a new study identifies another concern: generative AI applications alone could add 1.2million to five million tons of harmful trash to the planet by 2030. Such a contribution would add to the tens of millions of tons of electronic products the globe abandons annually. Cell phones, computers and other digital products often contain mercury (汞), lead or other poisons. When improperly disposed of, they can pollute air, water and soil. In 2022, about 78% of the world’s e-waste end up in landfills or at unofficial recycling sites, where laborers risk their health to clean up rare metals. The AI boom rapidly consumes data storage devices and high-performance components, which are usually replaced when new versions are available. To calculate the e-waste contribution, researchers examined hardware use, lifespan, and the industry’s growth rate. Their prediction is an estimate that could change based on various factors. This study’s biggest value comes from its attention to AI’s broad environmental impacts, says Shaolei Ren, a researcher at the University of California, Riverside. “We might want AI companies to slow down a bit,” he says. Few countries mandate (强制) the proper disposal of e-waste, and those that do often fail to carry out their existing laws on it. Twenty-five U. S. states have e-waste management policies, but there is no federal law that requires electronics recycling. Thankfully, some companies claim to be taking independent action. Microsoft and Google have committed to reaching net zero waste and net zero emissions respectively by2030. They have many options to limit e-waste. It’s possible to squeeze more life out of servers, for instance, through regular maintenance and updates or by shifting worn-out devices to less-intensive applications. These strategies are vital to reduce e-waste and benefit society, the study authors estimate. 30. What can be inferred from Paragraph 1? A. The Netherlands consumes too much electricity. B. The disadvantages of AI outweigh the advantages. C. AI’s energy-related issues largely result from image-making. D. The environmental footprint of AI is alarmingly extensive. 31. What is Shaolei Ren’s attitude toward the growth of AI companies? A. Indifferent. B. Cautious. C. Positive. D. Ambiguous. 32. What is the key to reducing e-waste? A. Adjusting AI application frequency. B. Prioritizing smartphone recycling. C. Banning the overuse of AI completely. D. Adopting device-lifespan-extending measures. 33. What is the best title for the text? A. AI May Worsen the E-waste Crisis. B. E-waste Calls for Proper Use of AI. C. E-waste Problems Mostly Blame on AI. D. AI and E-waste Always Go Hand in Hand. 第二节(共5 小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 We’ve all experienced the frustration of forgetting what we studied yesterday. But memory isn’t just about natural talent. It’s a skill we can improve with smart strategies. Our brains naturally screen information. We forget 70% of new knowledge within 24 hours if we don’t review it. Your brain serves as a library. Whenever you revisit information, you’re placing it on a more accessible shelf. A student who reviews math formulas (公式) right after class, then before bed, and once more after three days will find them easier to recall during exams. ____34____ ____35____ When reciting words like “photosynthesis”, simply repeating the spelling often fails quickly. Instead, picture sunlight hitting green leaves while reading a biology textbook. This combines text, imagery, and real-world meaning, activating multiple brain areas at once. Similarly, linking “pineapple” to “pine tree with apples” creates a funny mental image hard to forget for long. Sleep and calm minds are secret weapons for memory. During deep sleep, the brain reorganizes daytime learning like a librarian sorting books. Research shows students with 7-8 hours of sleep remember 40% more history facts than those who stay up late. ____36____ Taking slow breaths can protect your mental “library”. Active practice beats passive reading. Instead of mechanically rereading notes, transform headings into self-test questions: “____37____” This forces your brain to search information, strengthening memory pathways. Explaining concepts to friends, like teaching a classmate how to solve equations, uses speech and logic to deepen understanding. ____38____ By spacing out reviews, creating vivid mental connections, and caring for your brain’s needs, you can turn temporary knowledge into lifelong wisdom—one small, steady step at a time. A. How do I use this grammar rule in writing? B. This “spaced repetition” makes memories stick. C. Forgetting is a common human condition without exception. D. Context turns weak and uncertain memories into permanent ones. E. Memory mastery is not about studying longer but studying smarter. F. Improving memory is more focused on holding on to what really counts. G. Feeling stressed, however, floods the brain with chemicals that damage memory. 第四部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Geoff Holt was born to sail.

He had to board the train scheduled to leave at 7 pm, so he planned to leave his office at 5 pm. However, he, being on a long leave, had to complete a lot of pending (待定的) tasks in the office, which went well beyond 5 pm. By the time he left for the railway station, it was already 6 pm. In case of missing the train, Ana y immediately boarded a rickshaw (人力三轮车). That was when he encountered Jimmy. “Will you please drive as fast as you can to the railway station? I have to catch the train that leaves in an hour,” Anay asked. “Don’t worry, sir. We’ll be there on time.” Jimmy’s words calmed him. After that, they talked. “... Do you know sir, according to the law, Rs.10 (10卢比) should be charged for every piece of luggage going over the size of 60cm x 40cm or 14kg?” Anay looked at his luggage—two big bags and a small computer bag, with his computer in it. That meant he would have to pay Rs.20 extra. Jimmy continued, “But sir, I’ll never charge for luggage. In this way, people will remember me and contact me when they need a rickshaw.” Anay now realized that this young man was not a regular rickshaw driver. Out of curiosity, he asked, “What’s your educational background?” “A Bachelor’s degree in commerce (商务学士学位),” Jimmy replied. Anay was visibly shocked. Jimmy added, “Sir, I don’t feel ashamed of my job. I think it’s better that I’ve learned a great deal than none at all. After graduation, I haven’t found a suitable job. To feed myself, I landed this job, but after work, I take an evening course to improve knowledge of my major in case there’s any opportunity.” Anay related to Jimmy and couldn’t help thinking about his early job-seeking experiences. Soon, they reached the destination. Anay took out a 100-rupee note from his wallet, handed it to Jimmy and walked away hurriedly, carrying his two big bags. Paragraph 1: However, as Anay was entering the station, he found Jimmy running towards him with a small bag. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: A month later, Anay sent a message to Jimmy, asking him to take an interview. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$这是2025年广东实验中学高二年期中考试英语科听力部分，该部分分为第一第二两节。注意，回答听力部分时，请先将答案标在试卷上。听力部分结束前，你将有一分钟的时间将答案转移到答题卡上。听力考试正式开始，请看听力部分第一节。第一节听下面两段对话，每段对话后有几个小题，从题中所给的ABC3个选项中选出最佳选项。听每段对话前，你将有时间阅读各个小题，每小题5秒钟，听完后各小题将给出5秒钟的作答时间。每段对话读两遍，听下面一段对话，回答第一和第2两个小题。现在你有10秒钟的时间阅读这两个小题。I love shanghai twenty one.

However, planting thousands of trees takes time, money and a lot of hard work. Long term success rates are also quite low. So let's know about the erodium copy. It's a tiny device that plant seeds and helps grow trees in a simple and eco friendly. It's inspired by the fruit of a plant herodium whose unique shape helps IT buried seeds deep in the earth. However, while the plant has only one tail, this device has three, allowing IT to successfully digg into a wider variety of oil types protected from fire animals and heavy rain to have the best chance of long time survival. In fact, early tests show that this planting method can have up to a ninety percent success rate. Erodium copy is also made entirely from wood, which means that disappears entirely after working. Its magic seats can be drop from the air in large numbers, so they can get a hard to regerlations. So what do you think could this prove to be a key tool in the fight to cool our planet?

However, planting thousands of trees takes time, money and a lot of hard work. Long-term success rates are also quite low, so let’s know about the erodium copy. It’s a tiny device that plants seeds and helps grow trees in a simple and eco-friendly way. It’s inspired by the fruit of a plant, erodium, whose unique shape helps it bury its seeds deep in the earth. However, while the plant has only one tail, this device has three, allowing it to successfully dig into a wider variety of soil types. Protected from fire, animals and heavy rain, the seeds have a better chance of long-term survival. In fact, early tests show that this planting method can have up to a 90% success rate. Erodium copy is also made entirely from wood, which means it disappears entirely after working its magic. Seeds can be dropped from the air in large numbers so they can get to hard-to-reach areas. So what do you think? Could this prove to be a key tool in the fight to cool our planet? 11.

The company simply went through serious changes, and my position was no longer needed. They were great to me when I worked there, and they gave me a small severance package (辞退补偿.) I was 55 at the time. I was more than a bit anxiety-ridden, as I wasn’t in a position to retire, and I was concerned about the prospects of being rehired at this age. The good news is that I was a saver, had no debt and always lived simply. My husband’s job carried the benefits. I woke up every morning at 4 a. m. to consider how best to use my resources, and ended up starting a small business. Once I started, I made mistakes and messed things up, but kept educating myself more and more. There were tough times that were not easy to get through, but I managed to keep going. After about 18 months, it was working! Everything fell into place, and the train finally started going down the track! Now, I wake up each day and think, “I own a small business!” My husband even took early retirement to partner with me. While we are not making $1 million we have crossed over into six digits (数位) over the past few years. We run our business out of a home office. And I offer a service based on my knowledge from my previous job that I lost. Now several times a month, friends and former workmates reach out to us to ask how they can also get started like what we do. Though we’re busy, we take the time to talk with them sometimes. I know they really need help. Nowadays it’s easy to lose our jobs. Luckily, we’ve gained work experience, which can be really helpful if we want to start our own business.

This December, he released a translation of the full poem, even making adjustments to his original Inferno. “The rhythm or pattern of the poem seemed looser,” Palma said, so he revised it. For this new translation Palma aimed to stick to Dante’s terza rima rhyme pattern. In the original, the first and third lines rhyme, and the second line sets up the rhyme for the next group. Here’s how Palma’s version of Canto 1 of Purgatorio starts: “Right now, my small boat of wisdom raises its sails, ready to sail through the dangerous waters and leave this rough sea behind.” Approaching the translation this way is challenging as one can’t focus on just three lines at a time. Many English translations use free poetry or a looser rhyme, which Palma admits can be good. But he believes not reproducing the rhymes means losing much of the poem’s sound and music. He also thinks it fails to show readers what Dante did. Palma isn’t the first to attempt this. So, what’s the value in another translation of The Divine Comedy? Joseph Luzzi, a literature professor, said translation is a form of autobiography, which has no fixed rules. Luzzi recently published his translation of Dante’s Vita Nuova, a less-known work. It portrays a young Dante’s experience. In these works, themes like love, the exploration of human nature, and the pursuit of self-improvement are noticeable. Translating his work keeps it alive, and its relevance is clear. We can learn from these translations and discussions that literature has the power to connect different times and cultures. It encourages us to think deeply, explore different ways of expression, and continuously improve our understanding and appreciation of the world. 26. Which of the following words best describes Palma’s translation of Dante’s Inferno? A. Imaginative. B. Faithful. C. Innovative. D. Complex. 27. What was the main difficulty Palma faced in his new translation? A. It was pattern-challenging. B. It was culture-bound. C. It was time-consuming. D. It was word-limited. 28. Which of the following statements is Luzzi most likely to agree with? A. Translation is not applicable to less-known works. B. Translation demands strict pattern. C. Translation changes outdated themes. D. Translation is a self-reflective act. 29. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To compare different translation methods of Dante’s works. B. To analyze the challenges of preserving poetic rhythm in translation. C. To highlight the cultural and timeless value of translating literature. D. To introduce two scholars’ contributions to Dantean studies. 【答案】26. B 27. A 28. D 29. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述了诗人Michael Palma对但丁《神曲》的翻译，包括他翻译《地狱篇》的调整，新翻译中遵循的韵律模式及面临的挑战，还提及Joseph Luzzi对翻译的看法以及他对但丁《新生》的翻译，强调了文学翻译在连接不同时代和文化方面的作用。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“This December, he released a translation of the full poem, even making adjustments to his original Inferno.(今年12月，他发布了这首诗的完整译本，甚至对他原来的《地狱篇》进行了调整。)”和第二段“For this new translation, Palma aimed to stick to Dante’s terza rima rhyme pattern.(在这次新的翻译中，帕尔马的目标是坚持但丁的三韵脚押韵模式。)”可知，帕尔马致力于忠实于原著，遵循但丁的三韵脚押韵模式。故选B。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Approaching the translation this way is challenging as one can’t focus on just three lines at a time.(以这种方式进行翻译是很有挑战性的，因为一次不能只关注三行。)”可知，帕尔马在新翻译中面临的主要困难是押韵模式的挑战性。故选A。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“Joseph Luzzi, a literature professor, said translation is a form of autobiography, which has no fixed rules.(文学教授Joseph Luzzi说，翻译是一种自传的形式，没有固定的规则。)”可知，Luzzi认为翻译是一种自传的形式，即一种自我反思的行为。故选D。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Approaching the translation this way is challenging as one can’t focus on just three lines at a time. Many English translations use free poetry or a looser rhyme, which Palma admits can be good. But he believes not reproducing the rhymes means losing much of the poem’s sound and music. He also thinks it fails to show readers what Dante did.(以这种方式进行翻译是具有挑战性的，因为一个人不能一次只关注三行。许多英文翻译使用自由的诗歌或更宽松的押韵，帕尔马承认这可能是好的。但他认为，不复制押韵意味着失去了诗歌的大部分声音和音乐。他还认为它没有向读者展示但丁做了什么。)”和第四段“So, what’s the value in another translation of The Divine Comedy? Joseph Luzzi, a literature professor, said translation is a form of autobiography, which has no fixed rules.(那么，另一个《神曲》译本的价值是什么呢？文学教授Joseph Luzzi说，翻译是一种自传，没有固定的规则。)”可知，本文主要讲述了诗人Michael Palma对但丁《神曲》的翻译，包括他翻译《地狱篇》的调整，新翻译中遵循的韵律模式及面临的挑战，还提及Joseph Luzzi对翻译的看法以及他对但丁《新生》的翻译，强调了文学翻译在连接不同时代和文化方面的作用，因此目的是突出文学翻译的文化价值和永恒价值。故选C。 D Every time AI drafts an e-mail or an image, the planet pays for it. Making two images can consume as much energy as charging a smartphone. By 2027, the global AI industry could annually consume as much electricity as the Netherlands. And a new study identifies another concern: generative AI applications alone could add 1.2million to five million tons of harmful trash to the planet by 2030. Such a contribution would add to the tens of millions of tons of electronic products the globe abandons annually. Cell phones, computers and other digital products often contain mercury (汞), lead or other poisons. When improperly disposed of, they can pollute air, water and soil. In 2022, about 78% of the world’s e-waste end up in landfills or at unofficial recycling sites, where laborers risk their health to clean up rare metals. The AI boom rapidly consumes data storage devices and high-performance components, which are usually replaced when new versions are available. To calculate the e-waste contribution, researchers examined hardware use, lifespan, and the industry’s growth rate. Their prediction is an estimate that could change based on various factors. This study’s biggest value comes from its attention to AI’s broad environmental impacts, says Shaolei Ren, a researcher at the University of California, Riverside. “We might want AI companies to slow down a bit,” he says. Few countries mandate (强制) the proper disposal of e-waste, and those that do often fail to carry out their existing laws on it. Twenty-five U. S. states have e-waste management policies, but there is no federal law that requires electronics recycling. Thankfully, some companies claim to be taking independent action. Microsoft and Google have committed to reaching net zero waste and net zero emissions respectively by2030. They have many options to limit e-waste. It’s possible to squeeze more life out of servers, for instance, through regular maintenance and updates or by shifting worn-out devices to less-intensive applications. These strategies are vital to reduce e-waste and benefit society, the study authors estimate. 30. What can be inferred from Paragraph 1? A. The Netherlands consumes too much electricity. B. The disadvantages of AI outweigh the advantages. C. AI’s energy-related issues largely result from image-making. D. The environmental footprint of AI is alarmingly extensive. 31. What is Shaolei Ren’s attitude toward the growth of AI companies? A. Indifferent. B. Cautious. C. Positive. D. Ambiguous. 32. What is the key to reducing e-waste? A. Adjusting AI application frequency. B. Prioritizing smartphone recycling. C. Banning the overuse of AI completely. D. Adopting device-lifespan-extending measures. 33. What is the best title for the text? A. AI May Worsen the E-waste Crisis. B. E-waste Calls for Proper Use of AI. C. E-waste Problems Mostly Blame on AI. D. AI and E-waste Always Go Hand in Hand. 【答案】30. D 31. B 32. D 33. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了AI发展对环境（尤其是电子垃圾）的负面影响，并呼吁采取可持续措施。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Every time AI drafts an e-mail or an image, the planet pays for it. Making two images can consume as much energy as charging a smartphone. By 2027, the global AI industry could annually consume as much electricity as the Netherlands. And a new study identifies another concern: generative AI applications alone could add 1.2million to five million tons of harmful trash to the planet by 2030.(每次人工智能起草一封电子邮件或一张图片，地球都会为此付出代价。生成两张图片所消耗的能量与给智能手机充电一样多。到2027年，全球人工智能行业每年消耗的电量可能与荷兰一样多。一项新的研究发现了另一个问题：到2030年，仅生成性人工智能应用程序就可能给地球增加120万至500万吨有害垃圾。)”可知，人工智能的环境足迹是非常广泛且严重的。故选D项。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“This study’s biggest value comes from its attention to AI’s broad environmental impacts, says Shaolei Ren, a researcher at the University of California, Riverside. “We might want AI companies to slow down a bit,” he says.(加州大学河滨分校的研究员任少雷表示，这项研究的最大价值在于它对人工智能广泛的环境影响的关注。他说：“我们可能希望人工智能公司放慢脚步。”)”可知，任少雷指出研究价值在于关注AI的广泛环境影响，并建议“AI公司可能应该放慢发展速度”，表明他对AI公司快速增长持谨慎态度。故选B项。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“It’s possible to squeeze more life out of servers, for instance, through regular maintenance and updates or by shifting worn-out devices to less-intensive applications. These strategies are vital to reduce e-waste and benefit society, the study authors estimate.(例如，通过定期维护和更新，或者将磨损的设备转移到不那么密集的应用程序，可以延长服务器的使用寿命。该研究的作者估计，这些策略对于减少电子垃圾和造福社会至关重要。)”可知，减少电子废物的关键是采取延长设备寿命的措施。故选D项。 【33题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，根据第一段“And a new study identifies another concern: generative AI applications alone could add 1.2million to five million tons of harmful trash to the planet by 2030.(一项新的研究发现了另一个担忧：到2030年，仅生成式人工智能应用就可能给地球增加120万至500万吨有害垃圾。)”和倒数第二段“Few countries mandate(强制) the proper disposal of e-waste, and those that do often fail to carry out their existing laws on it.(很少有国家要求妥善处理电子垃圾，而那些要求妥善处理电子垃圾的国家也往往没有执行现有的相关法律。)”以及最后一段“Thankfully, some companies claim to be taking independent action.(值得庆幸的是，一些公司声称将采取独立行动。)”可知，全文围绕AI加剧电子垃圾问题展开，从能耗、硬件更替到法律缺失，最终提出延长设备寿命的解决方案，A项“人工智能可能加剧电子垃圾危机”能概括文章主旨，为最佳标题。故选A项。 第二节(共5 小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 We’ve all experienced the frustration of forgetting what we studied yesterday. But memory isn’t just about natural talent. It’s a skill we can improve with smart strategies. Our brains naturally screen information. We forget 70% of new knowledge within 24 hours if we don’t review it. Your brain serves as a library. Whenever you revisit information, you’re placing it on a more accessible shelf. A student who reviews math formulas (公式) right after class, then before bed, and once more after three days will find them easier to recall during exams. ____34____ ____35____ When reciting words like “photosynthesis”, simply repeating the spelling often fails quickly. Instead, picture sunlight hitting green leaves while reading a biology textbook. This combines text, imagery, and real-world meaning, activating multiple brain areas at once. Similarly, linking “pineapple” to “pine tree with apples” creates a funny mental image hard to forget for long. Sleep and calm minds are secret weapons for memory. During deep sleep, the brain reorganizes daytime learning like a librarian sorting books. Research shows students with 7-8 hours of sleep remember 40% more history facts than those who stay up late. ____36____ Taking slow breaths can protect your mental “library”. Active practice beats passive reading. Instead of mechanically rereading notes, transform headings into self-test questions: “____37____” This forces your brain to search information, strengthening memory pathways. Explaining concepts to friends, like teaching a classmate how to solve equations, uses speech and logic to deepen understanding. ____38____ By spacing out reviews, creating vivid mental connections, and caring for your brain’s needs, you can turn temporary knowledge into lifelong wisdom—one small, steady step at a time. A How do I use this grammar rule in writing? B. This “spaced repetition” makes memories stick. C. Forgetting is a common human condition without exception. D. Context turns weak and uncertain memories into permanent ones. E. Memory mastery is not about studying longer but studying smarter. F. Improving memory is more focused on holding on to what really counts. G. Feeling stressed, however, floods the brain with chemicals that damage memory. 【答案】34. B 35. D 36. G 37. A 38. E 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，主要介绍了一些提高记忆力的有效策略，包括定期复习、运用联想记忆、保证睡眠和保持冷静、主动练习等。 【34题详解】 根据上文“A student who reviews math formulas (公式) right after class, then before bed, and once more after three days will find them easier to recall during exams.( 如果一个学生在课后、睡前、三天后再复习一遍数学公式，他会发现在考试时更容易记住。)”提到学生课后、睡前和三天后复习数学公式的例子，说明了间隔复习的方法。B选项“This “spaced repetition” makes memories stick.( 这种“间隔重复”能让记忆更牢固。)”中的“spaced repetition”与前文的复习方法相呼应，总结了这种间隔复习能使记忆留存的作用，故选B项。 35题详解】 根据后文内容“When reciting words like “photosynthesis”, simply repeating the spelling often fails quickly. Instead, picture sunlight hitting green leaves while reading a biology textbook. This combines text, imagery, and real-world meaning, activating multiple brain areas at once. Similarly, linking “pineapple” to “pine tree with apples” creates a funny mental image hard to forget for long.( 当背诵像“光合作用”这样的单词时，简单地重复拼写往往很快就会失败。相反，在阅读生物教科书时，想象阳光照射在绿叶上。它结合了文本、图像和现实世界的含义，同时激活了大脑的多个区域。同样，把“菠萝”和“带苹果的松树”联系起来，会产生一种有趣的印象，让人难以忘怀。)”通过举例说明将单词与具体的图像、实际意义相结合能更好地记忆，即通过上下文情境来加强记忆。D选项“Context turns weak and uncertain memories into permanent ones.( 上下文情境将薄弱且不确定的记忆转化为永久的记忆。)”符合该段主旨，总结该段内容，适合作为该段小标题。故选D项。 【36题详解】 根据上文“During deep sleep, the brain reorganizes daytime learning like a librarian sorting books. Research shows students with 7-8 hours of sleep remember 40% more history facts than those who stay up late.( 在深度睡眠中，大脑会像图书管理员整理书籍一样重新组织白天的学习。研究表明，睡眠7-8小时的学生比那些熬夜的学生多记住40%的历史事实。)”提到睡眠对记忆的好处，该段主题是睡眠和冷静的头脑对记忆的作用。G选项“Feeling stressed, however, floods the brain with chemicals that damage memory.( 然而，感到压力会使大脑充斥着损害记忆的化学物质。)”与前文形成对比，说明压力对记忆的负面影响，强调了保持冷静的重要性。故选G项。 【37题详解】 根据上文“Active practice beats passive reading. Instead of mechanically rereading notes, transform headings into self-test questions:( 主动练习胜过被动阅读。不要机械地重读笔记，把标题变成自我测试的问题：)”提到将标题转化为自我测试问题，A选项“How do I use this grammar rule in writing?( 我如何在写作中使用这个语法规则？)”是一个具体的自我测试问题的例子，符合“将标题转化为自我测试问题”这一策略。故选A项。 【38题详解】 根据后文“By spacing out reviews, creating vivid mental connections, and caring for your brain’s needs, you can turn temporary knowledge into lifelong wisdom—one small, steady step at a time.( 通过间隔复习，建立生动的精神联系，照顾大脑的需要，你可以把暂时的知识变成终身的智慧——一次一小步，一步一步。)”可知，通过这些方法可以将临时知识转化为终身智慧，强调的是学习方法的重要性。E选项“Memory mastery is not about studying longer but studying smarter.( 掌握记忆不是在于学习时间更长，而是学习更明智。)”总结了全文，强调了运用有效策略提高记忆力，而不是单纯延长学习时间。故选E项。 第四部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Geoff Holt was born to sail.

He had to board the train scheduled to leave at 7 pm, so he planned to leave his office at 5 pm. However, he, being on a long leave, had to complete a lot of pending (待定的) tasks in the office, which went well beyond 5 pm. By the time he left for the railway station, it was already 6 pm. In case of missing the train, Ana y immediately boarded a rickshaw (人力三轮车). That was when he encountered Jimmy. “Will you please drive as fast as you can to the railway station? I have to catch the train that leaves in an hour,” Anay asked. “Don’t worry, sir. We’ll be there on time.” Jimmy’s words calmed him. After that, they talked. “... Do you know sir, according to the law, Rs.10 (10卢比) should be charged for every piece of luggage going over the size of 60cm x 40cm or 14kg?” Anay looked at his luggage—two big bags and a small computer bag, with his computer in it. That meant he would have to pay Rs.20 extra. Jimmy continued, “But sir, I’ll never charge for luggage. In this way, people will remember me and contact me when they need a rickshaw.” Anay now realized that this young man was not a regular rickshaw driver. Out of curiosity, he asked, “What’s your educational background?” “A Bachelor’s degree in commerce (商务学士学位),” Jimmy replied. Anay was visibly shocked. Jimmy added, “Sir, I don’t feel ashamed of my job. I think it’s better that I’ve learned a great deal than none at all. After graduation, I haven’t found a suitable job. To feed myself, I landed this job, but after work, I take an evening course to improve knowledge of my major in case there’s any opportunity.” Anay related to Jimmy and couldn’t help thinking about his early job-seeking experiences. Soon, they reached the destination. Anay took out a 100-rupee note from his wallet, handed it to Jimmy and walked away hurriedly, carrying his two big bags.

Anay froze, realizing he had left behind all his work files and personal documents in that bag. “Thank you so much!” Anay said, his hands shaking as he took the bag. Feeling grateful, he added, “Can I have your phone number?” Jimmy smiled shyly and gave Anay his number. Anay saved it, thinking that this young man deserved a chance. A month later, Anay sent a message to Jimmy, asking him to take an interview. When the big day finally came, Jimmy surprisingly found that Anay was one of the interviewers, his face glowing with excitement and hope. Jimmy confidently shared his academic knowledge and work experiences, which left a deep impression on the interviewers. A week later, Anay sent Jimmy a job offer.
