(游客可以悠闲地坐在草坪上，欣赏40多位音乐人和表演者在Depot公园露天舞台带来的现场音乐表演)”可知，来访者可以在艺术节上欣赏现场音乐表演。故选C项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Artist vendors can apply through Entrythingy by clicking the “Apply Here!” button. (艺术家参展商可通过Entrythingy平台点击“立即申请”按钮提交申请)”可知，艺术家参展商通过Entrythingy申请参加艺术节。故选B项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Admission is affordable: a 3-day unlimited pass costs $10, while a 1-day general pass is $5. (门票价格实惠：三日通票仅需10美元，单日普通票5美元)”可知，3日票日均约3.33美元(=10÷3)，1日票5美元，因此3日票日均更便宜。故选D项。 B In the 2010s, 34-year-old Brianne Miller travelled around the world as a marine biologist. No matter how remote the location, she made the same alarming discovery: large amounts of plastic littering the water and threatening marine life. Miller knew she needed to do something.   Canadians throw out three million tons of plastic waste each year and approximately one third of all food produced worldwide goes to waste, too. Miller, determined to fix the problem at the source, planned to open a shop that went further than banning plastic bags and the bad habit of wasting food . In 2015, she convinced a Vancouver Patagonia store to host her first pop-up by highlighting their shared focus on sustainability. With just 10 jars of dried mangoes, local chocolate, nuts, and pasta, she sold out in an afternoon, realizing she was onto a promising idea. In June 2018, after 18 months of successful pop-ups, Miller opened Nada, one of Canada’s first zero-waste grocery stores. Designed for easy zero-waste shopping, it offers free and upcycled containers at the entrance, so customers can choose to bring their own or use the provided ones. Nada sells the food items you’d expect — all 100 per cent package-free. Miller also turned to online ordering and delivery. Everything from olive oil to fresh eggs (and you can purchase just one, if you’d like) comes delivered in upcycled containers, which are collected (and reused again, of course) with the next round of deliveries. Those containers do much more than just reduce waste. They get people thinking big, just as Miller had hoped they would. “They’re tagged with Nada stickers, so you can see how many times the container has been used,” she says, and then smiles. “If you open someone’s pantry and see all of these Nada-branded packages, it’s bound to start a conversation.” 4. What inspired Brianne Miller to take action? A. Her dream of running a business. B. The serious problem of plastic pollution and food waste. C. Her love for marine life. D. The support from the Vancouver Patagonia store. 5. The success of Miller’s first pop-up in 2015 can be mainly resulted from ________. A the insufficiency of the 10 food items she provided B. the strong promotion from the Vancouver Patagonia store C. the connection with consumers on environmental sustainability D. the freshness of the zero-waste shopping concept in Canada at that time 6. What is special about Nada? A. It only sells local products. B. It offers free food to customers. C. It aims at zero-waste shopping. D. It has the largest number of containers. 7. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Consumers prefer to buy food in large quantities with packaging. B. There is an increasing demand for environmentally-friendly shopping methods. C. Online ordering and delivery services are replacing traditional shopping. D. The market for package-free food items is still in its initial stage. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. C 7. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。本文讲述了海洋生物学家Brianne Miller在发现塑料污染和食物浪费问题后，决定开设一家零浪费杂货店Nada的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“No matter how remote the location, she made the same alarming discovery: large amounts of plastic littering the water and threatening marine life. Miller knew she needed to do something.(无论地点多么偏远，她都有同样的惊人发现：大量的塑料垃圾漂浮在水中，威胁着海洋生物。米勒知道她需要做点什么。)”和第二段“Canadians throw out three million tons of plastic waste each year and approximately one third of all food produced worldwide goes to waste, too. Miller, determined to fix the problem at the source, planned to open a shop that went further than banning plastic bags and the bad habit of wasting food.(加拿大人每年扔掉300万吨塑料垃圾，全球生产的食物中约有三分之一也被浪费掉。米勒决心从源头上解决这个问题，她计划开一家商店，不仅要禁止使用塑料袋，还要改变浪费食物的坏习惯。)”可知，是塑料污染和食物浪费的严重问题激发了Brianne Miller采取行动。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“In 2015, she convinced a Vancouver Patagonia store to host her first pop-up by highlighting their shared focus on sustainability. With just 10 jars of dried mangoes, local chocolate, nuts, and pasta, she sold out in an afternoon, realizing she was onto a promising idea.(2015年，她通过强调与温哥华Patagonia商店对可持续发展的共同关注，说服该店举办了她的第一次快闪活动。只有10罐芒果干、当地巧克力、坚果和意大利面，她在一个下午就卖光了，意识到这是一个有前途的想法。)”可知，Miller在2015年的第一次快闪店的成功主要归因于她与消费者在环境可持续性方面的联系，使消费者对她的产品产生了兴趣。故选C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“In June 2018, after 18 months of successful pop-ups, Miller opened Nada, one of Canada’s first zero-waste grocery stores. Designed for easy zero-waste shopping, it offers free and upcycled containers at the entrance, so customers can choose to bring their own or use the provided ones.(2018年6月，在成功举办了18个月的快闪活动后，米勒开设了Nada，这是加拿大第一家零废弃杂货店之一。专为便捷的零废弃购物而设计，它在入口处提供免费和升级再造的容器，这样顾客可以选择自带容器或使用提供的容器。)”和第四段“Nada sells the food items you’d expect — all 100 per cent package-free.(Nada出售你期望的食品——所有产品都是100%无包装的。)”可知，Nada的特别之处在于它的目标是零废弃购物。故选C。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Those containers do much more than just reduce waste. They get people thinking big, just as Miller had hoped they would. “They’re tagged with Nada stickers, so you can see how many times the container has been used,” she says, and then smiles. “If you open some- one’s pantry and see all of these Nada- branded packages, it’s bound to start a conversation.”(这些容器的作用不仅仅是减少浪费。正如米勒所希望的那样，它们让人们有了更大的思考空间。‘它们贴有Nada的标签，所以你可以看到这个容器被使用了多少次，’她笑着说。‘如果你打开别人的食品储藏室，看到所有这些Nada品牌的包装，一定会引发一场对话。’)”可知，人们开始关注环保购物方式，对环保购物方式的需求正在增加。故选B。 C Have you ever tried leaving your phone in another room to focus better? New research from the London School of Economics suggests this common strategy might not work as hoped. The study, published in Frontiers in Computer Science, found that while keeping phones out of reach reduces phone use, people simply shift their distractions to other devices. In the experiment, 22 participants completed two five-hour computer work sessions (一段时间). During one session, phones stayed on their desks; in the other, phones were placed 1.5 meters away. When phones were distant, participants spent half as much time on them (15 minutes vs.29 minutes) and used them less frequently. But this didn’t boost productivity. Instead, they doubled their time on computer-based leisure — like browsing shopping sites or news articles — keeping the total break time nearly identical. “Our brains desire breaks, and if one distraction isn’t available, we’ll find another,” explains lead researcher Dr. Katarzyna Stawarz. The study highlights that phones are just a preferred distraction tool, not the root cause. The study disproved two common beliefs. First, notifications (通知) played almost no role in phone use. Participants received very few notifications that could interrupt them (only about half a notification per session on average). However, these notifications didn’t influence their behavior. This goes against the idea that when notifications are managed, there is a decrease in how often the phone is used. Second, a “self-awareness gap” emerged: when phones were nearby, participants underestimated their usage by nearly 50%, but with phones farther away, their estimates matched reality. This suggests that while physical distance made them more mindful of their habits, it does not solve the core issue of unplanned breaks. Workplace phone bans often fail because they ignore the human need for breaks. “Instead of blaming devices, we need healthier work patterns,” says Stawarz. For students and workers, the message is clear: Distraction isn’t about your phone — it’s about balancing focus and rest. Building self-control and planning intentional breaks may work better than fighting technology. 8. Why did participants’ total break time remain unchanged despite reduced phone use? A. They shifted leisure activities to computers. B. They slept for a while during sessions. C. They engaged in face-to-face conversations. D. They took more walks around the work area. 9. What conclusion does the study challenge? A. Self-control alone can prevent breaks. B. Phones are a necessary tool for work. C. Controlling notifications reduces phone use. D. Workplace bans boost focus effectively. 10. What does the “self-awareness gap” mentioned in the study indicate? A. People feel more in control with phones nearby. B. Physical distance causes overestimation of phone use. C. Closeness to phones leads to inaccurate usage estimates. D. Less phone use boosts self-control over other distractions. 11. What does the text imply about effective productivity strategies? A. Strict device removal policies are essential. B. Increasing work hours guarantees better results. C. Technology is key to managing distractions. D. Satisfying human needs for breaks is crucial. 【答案】8. A 9. C 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要探讨伦敦经济学院的一项研究：将手机放在远处是否能提升专注力。研究发现，物理隔离手机虽减少手机使用，但人们会转向其他设备分心，核心问题在于大脑需要休息。文章旨在揭示分心的本质是人类对休息的需求，而非设备本身，并建议通过健康的工作模式平衡专注与休息。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段最后两句“But this didn’t boost productivity. Instead, they doubled their time on computer-based leisure — like browsing shopping sites or news articles — keeping the total break time nearly identical. (但这并没有提高工作效率。相反，他们在电脑休闲上的时间增加了一倍，比如浏览购物网站或新闻文章，总的休息时间几乎保持不变。)”可知，尽管减少了手机的使用，但参与者的总休息时间保持不变，是因为他们将休闲活动转移到了电脑上。故选A项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段第四句“This goes against the idea that when notifications are managed, there is a decrease in how often the phone is used. (这与通知被管理时，手机使用频率会降低的观点相悖。)”可知，研究反驳了“控制通知能减少手机使用”这一常见观点，指出管理通知对手机使用频率影响甚微。故选C项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句“This suggests that while physical distance made them more mindful of their habits, it does not solve the core issue of unplanned breaks. (这表明，虽然物理距离让他们更加注意自己的习惯，但它并没有解决计划外休息的核心问题。)”以及第四段倒数第二句“Second, a “self-awareness gap” emerged: when phones were nearby, participants underestimated their usage by nearly 50%, but with phones farther away, their estimates matched reality. (其次，出现了‘自我意识差距’：当手机在附近时，参与者低估了他们的使用量近50%，但当手机离得更远时，他们的估计与现实相符。)”可知，研究中提到的“自我意识差距”表明，与手机距离较近时，参与者对手机使用量的估计不准确，低估了近50%。故选C项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句“Workplace phone bans often fail because they ignore the human need for breaks. (工作场所禁止使用手机往往失败，因为它们忽视了人类需要休息的需求。)”以及最后一句“Building self-control and planning intentional breaks may work better than fighting technology. (建立自我控制和规划有意的休息时间可能比与技术对抗更有效。)”可推知，满足人类休息的需求对于提高生产力至关重要。故选D项。 D A groundbreaking study from the University of New South Wales predicts that global GDP could drop by 40% by 2100 if temperatures rise by 4℃ — far higher than earlier estimates of 11%. The research, led by the Institute for Climate Risk & Response, highlights the problems in existing climate-economic models and urges immediate policy changes. Earlier models underestimated climate risks. Dr. Timothy Neal, lead researcher, explains, “Past studies assumed countries could manage climate impacts alone. But today’s economy relies on global networks. A disaster in one region — like floods shutting factories — can cause shortages and job losses worldwide.” For instance, extreme heat damaging crops in one country could raise food prices globally, while storms affecting shipping routes could stop production in distant industries. The findings support limiting warming to 1.7℃, which is in line with the Paris Agreement and far lower than 2.7℃ backed by previous models. “Old assumptions made severe climate change seem manageable, which shaped weak policies,” Dr. Neal says. The study also challenges the idea that colder nations like Russia or Canada might benefit from milder winters. “Even if farming improves in some areas, supply chain failures and global market crashes will erase those gains,” Dr. Neal notes. No country, he adds, can fully escape climate-related economic harm. However, the research does not address adaptation strategies, such as relocating communities or developing climate-resistant infrastructure(基础设施). Dr. Neal admits these factors are hard to predict due to political and practical challenges. “We’re already seeing climate impacts — higher food costs, unaffordable insurance and damaged infrastructure. These real-world effects must guide our decisions,” he says. The study calls for urgent global cooperation to accelerate emission reductions and protect supply chains.Governments and businesses now face pressure to invest in renewable energy, strengthen international trade agreements and prepare for climate-driven breakdowns. “Every year of delayed action raises costs and risks,”Dr. Neal warns. “Rapid decarbonization isn’t just about saving the planet — it’s about saving our economy.” 12. What can we say about earlier climate-economic models? A. They overestimated climate risks. B. They didn’t consider global interconnectedness. C. They highlighted some climate benefits. D. They provided solutions for each country. 13. What consequence did previous climate-economic models bring according to the text? A. They led to weak policies. B. They increased farming profits. C. They delayed relocating communities. D. They strengthened international cooperation. 14. What is Dr. Neal emphasizing in the last paragraph? A. The advantages of milder winters. B. The significance of renewable energy. C. The problems with adaptation strategies. D. The urgency of addressing climate change. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. Climate Change Damages Agricultural Output B. Global Economy Will Face 40% Loss Under 4℃ Warming C. Colder Nations: The Big Winners in Climate Change D. Previous Climate-Economic Models: A Reliable Guide 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. D 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了新南威尔士大学的关于气候变化对全球经济影响的一项最新研究。该研究预测全球变暖4℃将导致2100年全球GDP下降40%，并呼吁立即改变政策以减少经济损失。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Dr. Timothy Neal, lead researcher, explains, ‘Past studies assumed countries could manage climate impacts alone. But today’s economy relies on global networks. A disaster in one region — like floods shutting factories — can cause shortages and job losses worldwide.’(首席研究员Timothy Neal博士解释说：‘过去的研究假设各国可以单独应对气候影响。但今天的经济依赖于全球网络。一个地区的灾难——比如洪水导致工厂关闭——可能导致全球范围内的物资短缺和失业。’)”可知，早期的气候经济模型没有考虑到全球的相互关联性。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“‘Old assumptions made severe climate change seem manageable, which shaped weak policies,’ Dr. Neal says. (Neal博士说：‘旧的假设使严重的气候变化看起来是可控制的，这导致了政策不力，’)”可知，以前的气候经济模型带来的后果是导致了政策不力。故选A。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“‘Every year of delayed action raises costs and risks,’ Dr. Neal warns. ‘Rapid decarbonization isn’t just about saving the planet — it’s about saving our economy.’(‘每一年拖延行动都会增加成本和风险。’Neal博士警告说。‘快速脱碳不仅仅是为了拯救地球，也是为了拯救我们的经济。’)”可推知，Neal博士在最后一段强调了应对气候变化的紧迫性。故选D。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“A groundbreaking study from the University of New South Wales predicts that global GDP could drop by 40% by 2100 if temperatures rise by 4℃ — far higher than earlier estimates of 11%.(新南威尔士大学的一项开创性研究预测，如果气温上升 4℃，到 2100 年全球 GDP 可能下降 40%——远高于之前估计的 11%)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要围绕如果气温上升4℃对全球经济的影响展开。B选项“在气温上升4℃的情况下，全球经济将面临40%的损失”为最佳标题。故选B。 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。 Good communication isn’t just about the words we say.

The company’s ________ (strategy) plan for the next five years includes expanding into new markets. (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】strategic 【解析】 【详解】考查形容词。句意：该公司未来五年的战略计划包括拓展新市场。根据空后的名词plan可知，此处需用形容词作定语。strategy为名词，意为“战略，策略”，其形容词形式为strategic，意为“战略上的，战略性的”，此处修饰plan，指“战略计划”，应用strategic。故填strategic。 37. Gazing for several minutes at the bird, she drew it on her paper with amazing ________ (accurate). (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】accuracy 【解析】 【详解】考查名词。句意：她凝视了这只鸟几分钟，然后以惊人的准确度把它画在了纸上。空处需填名词形式，作介词with的宾语。所给词“accurate”为形容词，其名词形式为“accuracy”，意为“准确度”，为不可数名词，with accuracy表示“准确地”。故填accuracy。 38. The stadium________(repair) so we couldn’t come in. (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】was being repaired 【解析】 【详解】考查动词时态语态。句意：体育场正在维修，所以我们不能进去。根据“so we couldn’t come in”和语境可知，此处表示过去某一时刻正在进行的动作，所以应用过去进行时，主语stadium和动词repair构成被动关系，所以应用被动语态。主语为第三人称单数。故填was being repaired。 39. How I wish I _______ (listen) to my favourite music for an hour a day and played table tennis for an hour in the morning! (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】listened 【解析】 【详解】考查虚拟语气。句意：我多么希望我每天听一小时我最喜欢的音乐，早上打一小时乒乓球！wish后面的宾语从句用虚拟语气，表示与现在事实相反的愿望时，从句谓语动词用一般过去时（be 动词用 were）；表示与过去事实相反的愿望时，从句谓语动词用过去完成时（had + 过去分词），根据played可知是与现在事实相反，所以listen用过去式，故填listened。 40.

(所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】should be adopted##be adopted 【解析】 【详解】考查动词。句意：采纳新规则的建议是主席提出的。分析句子，设空处使用动词作that引导同位语从句的谓语动词，suggestion后面的名词性从句使用虚拟语气即should do的结构，should可以省略，adopt意为“采纳”其和the new rule之间是被动关系，应用should be adopted或者be adopted。故填should be adopted或be adopted。 41. ________(have) they known their neighbour was a drummer, they wouldn’t have moved into the building. (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】Had 【解析】 【详解】考查虚拟语气和倒装。句意：如果他们早知道邻居是个鼓手，他们就不会搬进这栋楼了。根据句意和主句谓语动词“wouldn’t have moved”可知，此处表示与过去事实相反的假设，所以从句应用过去完成时，当if引导的虚拟条件句中含有had时，可将if省略，然后把had提到主语前面，构成倒装结构，位于句首，首字母需大写。故填Had。 42. Kate, ________ sister I shared a room with when we were at college, has gone to work in Australia. （用适当的词填空） 【答案】whose 【解析】 【详解】考查定语从句。句意：Kate已经去澳大利亚工作了，她的妹妹在我们上大学时和我同住一个房间。分析句子结构可知，设空处引导非限制性定语从句，先行词是Kate，应用关系代词whose引导从句，在定语从句中作定语，修饰名词sister。故填whose。 43. _________(fail) to reach them on the phone, we sent an email instead.

They had known each other since childhood, growing up in the same block in Liverpool. Edward was fair and lean, while Stephen was dark and short. Edward’s brown hair was always falling over his eyes, while Stephen wore his black hair in a natural style. Each youngster had a dream of someday becoming champion of the world. Whenever they had time, the boys worked out at the Fencing (击剑) Club. Early morning sunrises would find them running along the Mersey River, wrapped in sweatshirts, with short towels around their necks. Edward and Stephen studied hard and dreamt positively. Between them, they had a notebook filled with torn tickets of every fencing match they had ever attended. They each had taken part in many elimination bouts (淘汰赛) and had won many gold medals. The difference was in their style. As fencers, Edward’s lean form and long reach made him better in attack, while Stephen’s short and muscular frame made him speed y in movement. Whenever they had met in the piste (击剑台), it had always been intense and competitive. After a series of elimination bouts, they were informed that they were to meet each other in the finals next month —the winner to represent the Club in the Championship Tournament. Fencing was like any other profession. The two boys knew friendship had nothing to do with it. But how would the competition affect their relationship? Everyday they continued to run together along the Mersey River. However, while joking with each other, they both sensed an invisible wall rising between them. The day before the finals, they met as usual for their daily workout. After a mile or so, Stephen stopped. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 “I think we both got something to say to each other.” Stephen said. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As the two went onto the piste, the audience held their breath. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 “I think we both got something to say to each other.” Stephen said. Edward acknowledged this with a nod. For a brief, uneasy moment, silence filled the air. “Let’s be honest with each other,” Stephen proposed, his voice steady and resolute. Edward gazed at him, and a silent recognition and sense of comfort exchanged between them “Absolutely! We’ve shared a bond that goes beyond mere competition; we’re brothers,” Edward affirmed. At last they reached an agreement that they would treat the upcoming match with intense competition and fair play. The following day marked the arrival of the finals. As the two went onto the piste, the audience held their breath. Edward and Stephen stood face to face, their friendship temporarily forgotten in the heat of competition. Each fencer displayed his own distinct talents, Edward’s precise attacks and Stephen’s swift footwork, leaving the audience unable to guess who would come out as a winner. The boys were completely engaged in the match, and in the final second, Stephen was narrowly defeated. In the thunderous applause from the audience, they embraced tightly, fully aware that whoever the champion was, the true champion was their unbreakable bond of friendship. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。爱德华和斯蒂芬是形影不离的好友，同为18岁，有着共同的击剑冠军梦。他们晨跑、刻苦训练，获奖无数，但击剑风格各异，一攻一守，在剑道上竞争激烈。如今，二人将在决赛相遇，友谊面临考验，虽表面如常，内心却渐生隔阂。决赛前最后一次训练，斯蒂芬突然停下，一切似乎到了转折点。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段句首内容“‘我想我们都有话要对彼此说。’斯蒂芬说。”可知，第一段可以描写二人的语言和心理活动。 ②由第二段句首内容“当两人走上击剑台时，观众都屏住了呼吸。”可知，第二段可以描写二人比赛的过程。 2.续写线索：有话要对彼此说—坦诚相待—达成协议—走上击剑台—激烈比赛—拥抱一起 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①承认：acknowledge/recognize ②充满：fill/replete ③建议：propose/suggest 情绪类 ①心神不安的：uneasy/restless ②安慰：comfort/consolation 【点睛】【高分句型1】At last they reached an agreement that they would treat the upcoming match with intense competition and fair play.( 运用了that引导的同位语从句) 【高分句型2】Each fencer displayed his own distinct talents, Edward’s precise attacks and Stephen’s swift footwork, leaving the audience unable to guess who would come out as a winner.

No matter how remote the location, she made the same alarming discovery: large amounts of plastic littering the water and threatening marine life. Miller knew she needed to do something.   Canadians throw out three million tons of plastic waste each year and approximately one third of all food produced worldwide goes to waste, too. Miller, determined to fix the problem at the source, planned to open a shop that went further than banning plastic bags and the bad habit of wasting food . In 2015, she convinced a Vancouver Patagonia store to host her first pop-up by highlighting their shared focus on sustainability. With just 10 jars of dried mangoes, local chocolate, nuts, and pasta, she sold out in an afternoon, realizing she was onto a promising idea. In June 2018, after 18 months of successful pop-ups, Miller opened Nada, one of Canada’s first zero-waste grocery stores. Designed for easy zero-waste shopping, it offers free and upcycled containers at the entrance, so customers can choose to bring their own or use the provided ones. Nada sells the food items you’d expect — all 100 per cent package-free. Miller also turned to online ordering and delivery. Everything from olive oil to fresh eggs (and you can purchase just one, if you’d like) comes delivered in upcycled containers, which are collected (and reused again, of course) with the next round of deliveries. Those containers do much more than just reduce waste. They get people thinking big, just as Miller had hoped they would. “They’re tagged with Nada stickers, so you can see how many times the container has been used,” she says, and then smiles. “If you open someone’s pantry and see all of these Nada-branded packages, it’s bound to start a conversation.” 4. What inspired Brianne Miller to take action? A. Her dream of running a business. B. The serious problem of plastic pollution and food waste. C. Her love for marine life. D. The support from the Vancouver Patagonia store. 5. The success of Miller’s first pop-up in 2015 can be mainly resulted from ________. A. the insufficiency of the 10 food items she provided B. the strong promotion from the Vancouver Patagonia store C. the connection with consumers on environmental sustainability D. the freshness of the zero-waste shopping concept in Canada at that time 6. What is special about Nada? A. It only sells local products. B. It offers free food to customers. C. It aims at zero-waste shopping. D. It has the largest number of containers. 7. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Consumers prefer to buy food in large quantities with packaging. B There is an increasing demand for environmentally-friendly shopping methods. C. Online ordering and delivery services are replacing traditional shopping. D. The market for package-free food items is still in its initial stage. C Have you ever tried leaving your phone in another room to focus better? New research from the London School of Economics suggests this common strategy might not work as hoped. The study, published in Frontiers in Computer Science, found that while keeping phones out of reach reduces phone use, people simply shift their distractions to other devices. In the experiment, 22 participants completed two five-hour computer work sessions (一段时间). During one session, phones stayed on their desks; in the other, phones were placed 1.5 meters away. When phones were distant, participants spent half as much time on them (15 minutes vs.29 minutes) and used them less frequently. But this didn’t boost productivity. Instead, they doubled their time on computer-based leisure — like browsing shopping sites or news articles — keeping the total break time nearly identical. “Our brains desire breaks, and if one distraction isn’t available, we’ll find another,” explains lead researcher Dr. Katarzyna Stawarz. The study highlights that phones are just a preferred distraction tool, not the root cause. The study disproved two common beliefs. First, notifications (通知) played almost no role in phone use. Participants received very few notifications that could interrupt them (only about half a notification per session on average). However, these notifications didn’t influence their behavior. This goes against the idea that when notifications are managed, there is a decrease in how often the phone is used. Second, a “self-awareness gap” emerged: when phones were nearby, participants underestimated their usage by nearly 50%, but with phones farther away, their estimates matched reality. This suggests that while physical distance made them more mindful of their habits, it does not solve the core issue of unplanned breaks. Workplace phone bans often fail because they ignore the human need for breaks. “Instead of blaming devices, we need healthier work patterns,” says Stawarz. For students and workers, the message is clear: Distraction isn’t about your phone — it’s about balancing focus and rest. Building self-control and planning intentional breaks may work better than fighting technology. 8. Why did participants’ total break time remain unchanged despite reduced phone use? A. They shifted leisure activities to computers. B. They slept for a while during sessions. C. They engaged in face-to-face conversations. D. They took more walks around the work area. 9. What conclusion does the study challenge? A. Self-control alone can prevent breaks. B. Phones are a necessary tool for work. C. Controlling notifications reduces phone use. D. Workplace bans boost focus effectively. 10. What does the “self-awareness gap” mentioned in the study indicate? A. People feel more in control with phones nearby. B. Physical distance causes overestimation of phone use. C. Closeness to phones leads to inaccurate usage estimates. D. Less phone use boosts self-control over other distractions. 11. What does the text imply about effective productivity strategies? A. Strict device removal policies are essential. B. Increasing work hours guarantees better results. C. Technology is key to managing distractions. D. Satisfying human needs for breaks is crucial. D A groundbreaking study from the University of New South Wales predicts that global GDP could drop by 40% by 2100 if temperatures rise by 4℃ — far higher than earlier estimates of 11%. The research, led by the Institute for Climate Risk & Response, highlights the problems in existing climate-economic models and urges immediate policy changes. Earlier models underestimated climate risks. Dr. Timothy Neal, lead researcher, explains, “Past studies assumed countries could manage climate impacts alone. But today’s economy relies on global networks. A disaster in one region — like floods shutting factories — can cause shortages and job losses worldwide.” For instance, extreme heat damaging crops in one country could raise food prices globally, while storms affecting shipping routes could stop production in distant industries. The findings support limiting warming to 1.7℃, which is in line with the Paris Agreement and far lower than 2.7℃ backed by previous models. “Old assumptions made severe climate change seem manageable, which shaped weak policies,” Dr. Neal says. The study also challenges the idea that colder nations like Russia or Canada might benefit from milder winters. “Even if farming improves in some areas, supply chain failures and global market crashes will erase those gains,” Dr. Neal notes. No country, he adds, can fully escape climate-related economic harm. However, the research does not address adaptation strategies, such as relocating communities or developing climate-resistant infrastructure(基础设施). Dr. Neal admits these factors are hard to predict due to political and practical challenges. “We’re already seeing climate impacts — higher food costs, unaffordable insurance and damaged infrastructure. These real-world effects must guide our decisions,” he says. The study calls for urgent global cooperation to accelerate emission reductions and protect supply chains.Governments and businesses now face pressure to invest in renewable energy, strengthen international trade agreements and prepare for climate-driven breakdowns. “Every year of delayed action raises costs and risks,”Dr. Neal warns. “Rapid decarbonization isn’t just about saving the planet — it’s about saving our economy.” 12. What can we say about earlier climate-economic models? A. They overestimated climate risks. B. They didn’t consider global interconnectedness. C. They highlighted some climate benefits. D. They provided solutions for each country. 13. What consequence did previous climate-economic models bring according to the text? A. They led to weak policies. B. They increased farming profits. C. They delayed relocating communities. D. They strengthened international cooperation. 14. What is Dr. Neal emphasizing in the last paragraph? A The advantages of milder winters. B. The significance of renewable energy. C. The problems with adaptation strategies. D. The urgency of addressing climate change. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. Climate Change Damages Agricultural Output B. Global Economy Will Face 40% Loss Under 4℃ Warming C. Colder Nations: The Big Winners in Climate Change D.

They were so together in friendship that they felt themselves to be brothers. They had known each other since childhood, growing up in the same block in Liverpool. Edward was fair and lean, while Stephen was dark and short. Edward’s brown hair was always falling over his eyes, while Stephen wore his black hair in a natural style. Each youngster had a dream of someday becoming champion of the world. Whenever they had time, the boys worked out at the Fencing (击剑) Club. Early morning sunrises would find them running along the Mersey River, wrapped in sweatshirts, with short towels around their necks. Edward and Stephen studied hard and dreamt positively. Between them, they had a notebook filled with torn tickets of every fencing match they had ever attended. They each had taken part in many elimination bouts (淘汰赛) and had won many gold medals. The difference was in their style. As fencers, Edward’s lean form and long reach made him better in attack, while Stephen’s short and muscular frame made him speed y in movement. Whenever they had met in the piste (击剑台), it had always been intense and competitive. After a series of elimination bouts, they were informed that they were to meet each other in the finals next month —the winner to represent the Club in the Championship Tournament. Fencing was like any other profession. The two boys knew friendship had nothing to do with it. But how would the competition affect their relationship? Everyday they continued to run together along the Mersey River. However, while joking with each other, they both sensed an invisible wall rising between them. The day before the finals, they met as usual for their daily workout. After a mile or so, Stephen stopped. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 “I think we both got something to say to each other.” Stephen said. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As the two went onto the piste, the audience held their breath. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
