A year after Walt Disney made history with Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, its artists were struggling to find the right design for Bambi, the tale of a young deer. The film’s production team realized they needed a style that highlighted almost all of the leaves, flowers and mushrooms in their first feature-length animated(动画的)film.
Soon they got their inspiration from Tyrus Wong, whose work was on display as a new exhibit at New York City’s Museum. In 1938, the Walt Disney Studio hired him to draw the frames between the main drawings of the animators. After reading the story of Bambi, he saw an opportunity to break out of his humdrum job. He said to himself “This is all outdoor scenery. And I’m a landscape painter. This will be great!”
Inspired by Chinese landscape paintings, he used watercolor and pastels(蜡笔)to make sketches that bring the feeling of forest scenes with simple strokes of color and special attention to light and shadow. Wong’s sketches attracted Disney and became the guide for Bambi’s background artists, who were later trained to imitate his style. “His expression was a great leap forward for the medium,” writes John Lasseter, the chief creative officer for Walt Disney and Pixar Animation Studios. “Where other films were literal, Bambi was expressive and emotional.” In 2001,Wong was named “Disney Legend”, and he received the recognition as the true lead artist.
He pursued art all his life and still made art during his retirement, including toy animals from recycled materials and handmade kites that he regularly flew off the Santa Monica Pier in California. “People admire his works because of Bambi, but Bambi was just a really small part of his life,” says his youngest daughter. “He considers himself not a great artist but a lucky artist, who was at the right place at the right time.”
24. Why did Walt Disney’s artists notice Tyrus Wong?
A. He was good at drawing cartoon characters.
B. He won a prize at a museum in New York.
C. His style was suitable for the animated film Bambi.
D. His work could be used to advertise Walt Disney’s films
25. What does John Lasseter think of Tyrus Wong’s paintings?
A. They were literal and detailed.
B. They conveyed thoughts effectively.
C. They showed the legend of Walt Disney.
D. They displayed the progress of the medium.
26. What can we learn about Tyrus Wong from the last paragraph?
A. He was devoted to art during his lifetime.
B. He had been busy his whole life.
C. He gave up art after retirement.
D. He liked to purchase toys and kites.
27. How does the author introduce Tyrus Wong?
A. By analyzing cause and effect.
B. By making comparisons.
C. By following time order.
D. By listing examples.
C
A recent study from the Food and Mood Centre at Deakin University in Australia has cast light on an alternative approach to managing mild to moderate depression. The research suggests that lifestyle therapy, which includes nutritional consulting and regular physical activity, can be as effective as traditional psychotherapy (心理疗法) in reducing depressive symptoms.
In this study, 182 individuals diagnosed with non-severe depression were randomly assigned to either lifestyle therapy or cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). The lifestyle therapy group received guidance from a dietitian and an exercise physiologist. These professionals provided evidence-based advice on improving nutrition, particularly through a modified Mediterranean (地中海) diet, and including regular physical exercise into daily routine. Meanwhile, the CBT group was led by psychologists who taught strategies to manage negative thoughts and behaviors, and were provided with workbooks and self-help tools.
Both therapies were structured to match in frequency, duration, environment, and group size, ensuring a fair comparison. The results were promising: the lifestyle therapy group reported a 42% reduction in depression symptoms, whereas those who had traditional psychotherapy experienced a 37% reduction.
Although the study’s sample size was small, indicating the need for further research, it underlines the importance of lifestyle changes in medicine. The researchers point out that while lifestyle changes are the cornerstone of other areas of medicine, such as heart diseases and diabetes, they have traditionally been seen as ‘add-on’ to mental health care. The study’ s findings suggest that this mindset may need to shift.
Importantly, the research does not say that lifestyle changes should replace professional mental health care. Instead, it recommends a comprehensive approach where both lifestyle therapy and traditional psychotherapy are available options. This would allow individuals to access the care that best suits their needs, potentially offering more effective treatment for those fighting with mild to moderate depression.
28. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. The significance of the research. B. The consequence of the research.
C. The performance of different subjects. D. The process of conducting the research.
29. What does the underlined word “cornerstone” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. A side factor. B. An optional part.
C. A fundamental element. D. A controversial method.
30. What is the suggestion of the research?
A. Improve traditional psychotherapy. B. Include lifestyle changes as an option.
C. Stick to the Mediterranean diet strictly. D. Replace psychotherapy with lifestyle changes.
31. In which column of a magazine might this text be found?
A. Fitness routines. B. Health & wellness.
C. Food adventures. D. Entertainment express.
D
Extreme land use combined with warming temperatures is pushing insect ecosystems toward collapse in some parts of the world, scientists reported Wednesday.
The study, published in the journal Nature, identified for the first time a clear and alarming link between the climate crisis and high-intensity agriculture and showed that, in places where those impacts are particularly high, insect abundance has already dropped by nearly 50%, while the number of species has been reduced by 27%.
These findings cause huge concerns, according to Charlotte Outhwaite, the lead author on the study and researcher at the University College London, given the important role of insects in local ecosystems, pollination (授粉) and food production, and note that losing insects could threaten human health and food security.
“Three quarters of our crops depend on insect pollinators,” Dave Goulson, a professor of biology at the University of Sussex in the UK, previously told CNN. “Without insects, crops will begin to fail. We won’t have things like strawberries. We can’t feed 8 billion people.”
Scientists say, extreme land use has a link with the climate crisis. Clearing natural habitats for agriculture can dramatically change the area’s local climate and cause temperature extremes. Researchers found evident declines in insect populations in warmer areas, particularly in the tropics. They concluded that in areas with less agriculture, less climate warming, and a nearby natural habitat, insects only declined by 7%, compared to the 63% decrease in areas with less natural habitat cover.
Outhwaite told CNN there are things we can do to help prevent this crisis, like planting more native species and wildflowers, and reducing chemicals used in gardens. “It’s also probably a good idea to think about where the foods that we are buying are being sourced from,” Outwaite said. “So if they’re being sourced from tropical countries, there’s probably going to be a high impact on biodiversity there.”
32. Why does the author quote Dave Goulson’s words in the paragraph 4?
A. To emphasize the importance of insects to human life.
B. To provide evidence for the decline in insect populations.
C. To suggest potential solutions to prevent the decline of insects.
D. To show the importance of preserving natural habitats for insects.
33. Which of the following may contribute to the largest decline in insect population?
A. Making full use of land in colder areas. B. Preserving habitats cover in colder areas.
C. Planting more native species in warmer areas. D. Expanding agriculture production in tropics.
34. What does Outhwaite’s words mainly focus on in the last paragraph?
A. The efforts that have been made to protect insects.
B. The suggestions on how to protect the diversity of insects.
C. The reasons why we should preserve the diversity of insects.
D. The advice on what kind of products to buy to avoid insect crisis.
35. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Agriculture Harms Ecosystems B. Reasons for Endangered Insect Ecosystems
C. Insect Ecosystems Need Help D. Efforts Made to Save Insect Ecosystems

While many people might be quitting formal New Year’s decisions this year, others may mark a fresh start by deciding to make up for poor eating habits of the past. ___36___ Without a solid plan, you may fail quickly. So consider starting with these three easy ways to eat a healthier diet.
Aim for real food only. ___37___ Maybe it’s the whole thing (like a frozen dinner), or maybe it’s just part of your meal (like the bottled dressing on your salad). Think of where you can replace processed foods for healthier ones. For example, eat whole-grain pasta instead of enriched white-flour spaghetti.
Schedule your meals and snacks. Set times on your phone for three different meals and two snacks (if you need them). ___38___ This might control your desires, reduce stress about when you’ll eat next, and cut down on the extra calories of unnecessary snacking ——a real challenge if you’re close to a refrigerator all day while at home or work.
Reduce your portion (分量) sizes. If you’re like most Americans, you’re eating too much food. An easy way to carry out portion control: load your plate as you normally would, then put back a third or half of the food. ___39___
You don’t need to include all of these steps at one time; try one step per week. Write down what you’re eating and any thoughts or questions you have about the process. ___40___ Before long, you’ll have the confidence to attempt new steps.
A. Avoid having late-night meals or snacks.
B. Don’t eat in between these scheduled times.
C. Processed foods are linked with many diseases.
D. After a week, assess what worked and what didn’t.
E. You can also use a salad plate instead of a dinner plate.
F. Look at your plate and note what’s processed and what isn’t.
G. But this motivation is often focused on a diet that is too ambitious.

It was a relief when my colleagues were ___44___ to join us. We created a group devoted to ___45___ other greener ways. We began meeting every month to discuss some ___46___. We introduced new recycling bins to each lab after learning that some waste could be recycled if it was sorted ___47___. And we also tracked the energy consumption of lab equipment. By doing these, we could create ___48___ on how to use each device.
Our most energy-hungry devices were the ultra-low-temperature freezers, each of which consumed more energy than a typical household. So, we started an institutewide (全院的) freezer ___49___, asking labs to remove samples that were not ____50____ anymore and combine what remained in fewer freezers. Through those efforts, we managed to turn off several freezers. We also ____51____ the temperature of several freezers after realizing some samples didn’t have to be stored so ____52____.

67. 阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Mike loved mint chocolate chip ice cream. Before every swim meet, he would have a bowl, believing it was his lucky charm. At first, it seemed to work. He won race after race, feeling on top of the world. His confidence soared, and he thought the ice cream was the secret to his success. His parents, though concerned about the unhealthy habit, let it slide as long as he was winning.
However, as time passed, Mike started to gain weight, and his performance in the pool suffered. He went from first place to last, and his once-unbeatable feeling was gone. He was confused and disappointed, not understanding why his "lucky charm" had failed. His parents decided it was time for a change. They sat him down and explained the importance of a balanced diet and regular exercise. Reluctantly, Mike agreed to give up the ice cream and start training harder.
His father offered to run with him, and they began a strict workout routine. At first, it was tough. Mike missed the comfort of his favorite ice cream, and practices were harder without the extra energy boost. But slowly, he started to feel healthier and stronger. His breathing improved, and he could swim faster and longer.
The day of the final swim meet of the season arrived. Mike stood at the edge of the pool, feeling nervous but determined. He took a deep breath, remembering all the hard work he and his dad had put in. With a powerful dive, he entered the water and began to swim. Stroke by stroke, he pushed himself, ignoring the burning in his muscles. As he swam, he could hear the cheers of the audience faintly in the background. With every lap, he gained more confidence. When he made the final turn, he saw the finish line ahead. He gathered all his strength for one last burst and touched the wall.
注意: 1. 续写词数应为 150 左右;
2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
As he lifted his head out of the water, Mike glanced up at the scoreboard.

Shortly after coming out of the pool, Mike rushed to his parents excitedly.

20. What is the speaker mainly talking about?
A. Pet care. B. Home security. C. Camera technology.
【答案】18. C 19. C 20. B
【解析】
【原文】W: Home security is becoming one of the fastest growing technology markets. Previously, home owners had to get expensive alarms. These systems could not be relied upon, and would even be set off if there was a power cut. Nowadays, with advancements in technology, it is easy to add extra protection to your home at affordable prices. Companies like Nest and Ring have released doorbells that also have a camera. The main selling point of these devices is that when someone rings your doorbell, you can choose to answer via your phone, even if you’re not in the house. This can drive away thieves as they believe the house is occupied. It also takes photos of people in your house. Some cameras come with face recognition software so that if it doesn’t recognize someone, it will inform you or the authorities. So-called “smart homes” allow you to control and monitor your home from your smart phone or tablet. You are able to turn the lights on and off while in another country, making it appear occupied. You can also monitor smart security cameras that can sit in your home, or outside on your walls. These also allow you to monitor your pets and children, keeping your loved ones under your watchful eyes.

A year after Walt Disney made history with Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, its artists were struggling to find the right design for Bambi, the tale of a young deer. The film’s production team realized they needed a style that highlighted almost all of the leaves, flowers and mushrooms in their first feature-length animated(动画的)film.
Soon they got their inspiration from Tyrus Wong, whose work was on display as a new exhibit at New York City’s Museum. In 1938, the Walt Disney Studio hired him to draw the frames between the main drawings of the animators. After reading the story of Bambi, he saw an opportunity to break out of his humdrum job. He said to himself “This is all outdoor scenery. And I’m a landscape painter. This will be great!”
Inspired by Chinese landscape paintings, he used watercolor and pastels(蜡笔)to make sketches that bring the feeling of forest scenes with simple strokes of color and special attention to light and shadow. Wong’s sketches attracted Disney and became the guide for Bambi’s background artists, who were later trained to imitate his style. “His expression was a great leap forward for the medium,” writes John Lasseter, the chief creative officer for Walt Disney and Pixar Animation Studios. “Where other films were literal, Bambi was expressive and emotional.” In 2001,Wong was named “Disney Legend”, and he received the recognition as the true lead artist.
He pursued art all his life and still made art during his retirement, including toy animals from recycled materials and handmade kites that he regularly flew off the Santa Monica Pier in California. “People admire his works because of Bambi, but Bambi was just a really small part of his life,” says his youngest daughter. “He considers himself not a great artist but a lucky artist, who was at the right place at the right time.”
24. Why did Walt Disney’s artists notice Tyrus Wong?
A. He was good at drawing cartoon characters.
B. He won a prize at a museum in New York.
C. His style was suitable for the animated film Bambi.
D. His work could be used to advertise Walt Disney’s films
25. What does John Lasseter think of Tyrus Wong’s paintings?
A. They were literal and detailed.
B. They conveyed thoughts effectively.
C. They showed the legend of Walt Disney.
D. They displayed the progress of the medium.
26. What can we learn about Tyrus Wong from the last paragraph?
A. He was devoted to art during his lifetime.
B. He had been busy his whole life.
C. He gave up art after retirement.
D. He liked to purchase toys and kites.
27. How does the author introduce Tyrus Wong?
A. By analyzing cause and effect.
B. By making comparisons.
C. By following time order.
D. By listing examples.
【答案】24. C 25. B 26. A 27. C
【解析】

(电影的制作团队意识到,他们需要一种风格,在他们的第一部长篇动画电影中,突出几乎所有的叶子、花朵和蘑菇)”以及第二段“Soon they got their inspiration from Tyrus Wong, whose work was on display as a new exhibit at New York City’s Museum.(很快,他们就从Tyrus Wong那里得到了灵感,他的作品在纽约市博物馆(new York City’s Museum)作为新展览展出。)”可知,迪士尼的艺术家们注意到黄齐耀是因为黄齐耀的作品风格很适合《小鹿斑比》这部动画。故选C。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Wong’s sketches attracted Disney and became the guide for Bambi’s background artists, who were later trained to imitate his style. “His expression was a great leap forward for the medium,” writes John Lasseter, the chief creative officer for Walt Disney and Pixar Animation Studios. “Where other films were literal, Bambi was expressive and emotional.”(黄齐耀的作品吸引了迪士尼,并成为小鹿斑比背景艺术家的指导,他们后来接受了模仿他风格的培训。华特迪士尼和皮克斯动画工作室的首席创意官约翰·拉塞特写道:“他的表达方式是动画媒体的一大飞跃。”“其他电影都是文字化的,而小鹿斑比是富有表现力和情感的。)”可知,约翰·拉塞特认为黄齐耀的作品有效地传达了思想。故选B。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“He pursued art all his life and still made art during his retirement, including toy animals from recycled materials and handmade kites that he regularly flew off the Santa Monica Pier in California.(他一生都在追求艺术,退休后仍在创作艺术,包括用回收材料制作的玩具动物和他经常在加州圣莫尼卡码头放飞的手工风筝。)”可知,他一生致力于艺术。故选A。

C
A recent study from the Food and Mood Centre at Deakin University in Australia has cast light on an alternative approach to managing mild to moderate depression. The research suggests that lifestyle therapy, which includes nutritional consulting and regular physical activity, can be as effective as traditional psychotherapy (心理疗法) in reducing depressive symptoms.
In this study, 182 individuals diagnosed with non-severe depression were randomly assigned to either lifestyle therapy or cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). The lifestyle therapy group received guidance from a dietitian and an exercise physiologist. These professionals provided evidence-based advice on improving nutrition, particularly through a modified Mediterranean (地中海) diet, and including regular physical exercise into daily routine. Meanwhile, the CBT group was led by psychologists who taught strategies to manage negative thoughts and behaviors, and were provided with workbooks and self-help tools.
Both therapies were structured to match in frequency, duration, environment, and group size, ensuring a fair comparison. The results were promising: the lifestyle therapy group reported a 42% reduction in depression symptoms, whereas those who had traditional psychotherapy experienced a 37% reduction.
Although the study’s sample size was small, indicating the need for further research, it underlines the importance of lifestyle changes in medicine. The researchers point out that while lifestyle changes are the cornerstone of other areas of medicine, such as heart diseases and diabetes, they have traditionally been seen as ‘add-on’ to mental health care. The study’ s findings suggest that this mindset may need to shift.
Importantly, the research does not say that lifestyle changes should replace professional mental health care. Instead, it recommends a comprehensive approach where both lifestyle therapy and traditional psychotherapy are available options. This would allow individuals to access the care that best suits their needs, potentially offering more effective treatment for those fighting with mild to moderate depression.
28. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. The significance of the research. B. The consequence of the research.
C. The performance of different subjects. D. The process of conducting the research.
29. What does the underlined word “cornerstone” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. A side factor. B. An optional part.
C. A fundamental element. D. A controversial method.
30. What is the suggestion of the research?
A. Improve traditional psychotherapy. B. Include lifestyle changes as an option.
C. Stick to the Mediterranean diet strictly. D. Replace psychotherapy with lifestyle changes.
31. In which column of a magazine might this text be found?
A. Fitness routines. B. Health & wellness.
C. Food adventures. D. Entertainment express.
【答案】28. D 29. C 30. B 31. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了澳大利亚迪肯大学的研究表明生活方式疗法可缓解抑郁。
【28题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段内容“In this study, 182 individuals diagnosed with non-severe depression were randomly assigned to either lifestyle therapy or cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). The lifestyle therapy group received guidance from a dietitian and an exercise physiologist.(在这项研究中,182名被诊断为非重度抑郁症的个体被随机分配到生活方式疗法组或认知行为疗法(CBT)组。生活方式疗法组接受了营养师和运动生理学家的指导)”以及“Meanwhile, the CBT group was led by psychologists who taught strategies to manage negative thoughts and behaviors, and were provided with workbooks and self-help tools.(与此同时,CBT组由心理学家领导,教授管理负面思维和行为的策略,并提供了工作簿和自助工具)” 可知,该段详细介绍了研究中 182 名被诊断为非严重抑郁症的个体被随机分组,以及生活方式疗法组和认知行为疗法组各自接受的不同指导等内容,也就是讲述了进行这项研究的过程。故选D。
【29题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段中“Although the study’s sample size was small, indicating the need for further research, it underlines the importance of lifestyle changes in medicine. (尽管该研究的样本量较小,表明需要进一步的研究,但它强调了生活方式改变在医学中的重要性)” 以及划线单词所所在的句子“such as heart diseases and diabetes, they have traditionally been seen as ‘add-on’ to mental health care(诸如心脏病和糖尿病等疾病,传统上被视为心理健康护理的“附加项”)”可知,这里强调了生活方式改变在医学中的重要性,也就是说生活方式改变是其他医学领域(如心脏病和糖尿病)的基本因素,所以划线单词意为“基本要素”。故选C。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Importantly, the research does not say that lifestyle changes should replace professional mental health care. Instead, it recommends a comprehensive approach where both lifestyle therapy and traditional psychotherapy are available options.(重要的是,这项研究并没有说生活方式的改变应该取代专业的心理健康护理。相反,它建议采用一种综合的方法,在这种方法中,生活方式疗法和传统心理疗法都是可选的方案)”可知,研究建议采取综合的方法,将生活方式疗法和传统心理疗法都作为可选择的方式,也就是把生活方式的改变纳入选择中。故选B。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,再根据第一段中“The research suggests that lifestyle therapy, which includes nutritional consulting and regular physical activity, can be as effective as traditional psychotherapy (心理疗法) in reducing depressive symptoms.(研究表明,包括营养咨询和定期体育活动在内的生活方式疗法在减少抑郁症状方面可能与传统心理疗法一样有效)”可知,文章主要讲述了研究发现生活方式疗法对轻中度抑郁有效,由此可知,这篇文章可能出现在杂志的“健康与保健”一栏。故选B。
D
Extreme land use combined with warming temperatures is pushing insect ecosystems toward collapse in some parts of the world, scientists reported Wednesday.
The study, published in the journal Nature, identified for the first time a clear and alarming link between the climate crisis and high-intensity agriculture and showed that, in places where those impacts are particularly high, insect abundance has already dropped by nearly 50%, while the number of species has been reduced by 27%.
These findings cause huge concerns, according to Charlotte Outhwaite, the lead author on the study and researcher at the University College London, given the important role of insects in local ecosystems, pollination (授粉) and food production, and note that losing insects could threaten human health and food security.
“Three quarters of our crops depend on insect pollinators,” Dave Goulson, a professor of biology at the University of Sussex in the UK, previously told CNN. “Without insects, crops will begin to fail. We won’t have things like strawberries. We can’t feed 8 billion people.”
Scientists say, extreme land use has a link with the climate crisis. Clearing natural habitats for agriculture can dramatically change the area’s local climate and cause temperature extremes. Researchers found evident declines in insect populations in warmer areas, particularly in the tropics. They concluded that in areas with less agriculture, less climate warming, and a nearby natural habitat, insects only declined by 7%, compared to the 63% decrease in areas with less natural habitat cover.
Outhwaite told CNN there are things we can do to help prevent this crisis, like planting more native species and wildflowers, and reducing chemicals used in gardens. “It’s also probably a good idea to think about where the foods that we are buying are being sourced from,” Outwaite said. “So if they’re being sourced from tropical countries, there’s probably going to be a high impact on biodiversity there.”
32. Why does the author quote Dave Goulson’s words in the paragraph 4?
A. To emphasize the importance of insects to human life.
B. To provide evidence for the decline in insect populations.
C. To suggest potential solutions to prevent the decline of insects.
D. To show the importance of preserving natural habitats for insects.
33. Which of the following may contribute to the largest decline in insect population?
A. Making full use of land in colder areas. B. Preserving habitats cover in colder areas.
C. Planting more native species in warmer areas. D. Expanding agriculture production in tropics.
34. What does Outhwaite’s words mainly focus on in the last paragraph?
A. The efforts that have been made to protect insects.
B. The suggestions on how to protect the diversity of insects.
C. The reasons why we should preserve the diversity of insects.
D. The advice on what kind of products to buy to avoid insect crisis.
35. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Agriculture Harms Ecosystems B. Reasons for Endangered Insect Ecosystems
C. Insect Ecosystems Need Help D. Efforts Made to Save Insect Ecosystems
【答案】32. A 33. D 34. B 35. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了据科学家报告称,极端的土地使用加上气温升高正在导致世界部分地区的昆虫生态系统崩溃,文章还就如何保护昆虫多样性提出了一些建议。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“These findings cause huge concerns, according to Charlotte Outhwaite, the lead author on the study and researcher at the University College London, given the important role of insects in local ecosystems, pollination (授粉) and food production, and note that losing insects could threaten human health and food security.(这项研究的主要作者、伦敦大学学院研究员 Charlotte Outhwaite 表示,鉴于昆虫在当地生态系统、授粉和粮食生产中的重要作用,这些发现引起了人们的极大担忧,并指出昆虫的消失可能威胁人类健康和粮食安全)”和第四段““Three quarters of our crops depend on insect pollinators,” Dave Goulson, a professor of biology at the University of Sussex in the UK, previously told CNN. “Without insects, crops will begin to fail. We won’t have things like strawberries. We can’t feed 8 billion people.”(英国萨塞克斯大学生物学教授戴夫·古尔森此前告诉 CNN:“我们的四分之三的农作物依赖昆虫授粉。没有昆虫,农作物就会开始歉收。我们将不会有草莓之类的东西。我们无法养活80亿人。”)”可知,昆虫在当地生态系统、授粉和粮食生产中有重要作用,没有昆虫授粉,农作物就会歉收,人类无法生存,由此可推知,作者引用Dave Goulson的话是为了强调昆虫对人类生活的重要性。故选A。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“The study, published in the journal Nature, identified for the first time a clear and alarming link between the climate crisis and high-intensity agriculture and showed that, in places where those impacts are particularly high, insect abundance has already dropped by nearly 50%, while the number of species has been reduced by 27%.(这项研究发表在《自然》杂志上,首次发现了气候危机与高强度农业之间的明确而令人担忧的联系,并表明在气候影响特别大的地方,昆虫数量已经下降了近 50%,而物种数量减少了 27%。)”和倒数第二段中“Researchers found evident declines in insect populations in warmer areas, particularly in the tropics. They concluded that in areas with less agriculture, less climate warming, and a nearby natural habitat, insects only declined by 7%, compared to the 63% decrease in areas with less natural habitat cover.(研究人员发现,在气候较温暖的地区,尤其是热带地区,昆虫数量明显减少。他们得出的结论是,在农业较少、气候变暖较少且自然栖息地较近的地区,昆虫数量仅减少了 7%,而自然栖息地覆盖较少的地区则减少了 63%。)”可知,在气候较温暖的地区,尤其是热带地区,昆虫数量明显减少,且在农业较少、气候变暖较少且自然栖息地较近的地区,昆虫数量减少的较少,但在高强度的农业地区昆虫数量下降很多,由此可推知,扩大热带地区的农业生产可能是造成昆虫数量最大下降的原因,故选D。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Outhwaite told CNN there are things we can do to help prevent this crisis, like planting more native species and wildflowers, and reducing chemicals used in gardens. “It’s also probably a good idea to think about where the foods that we are buying are being sourced from,” Outwaite said. “So if they’re being sourced from tropical countries, there’s probably going to be a high impact on biodiversity there.”(Outhwaite告诉 CNN,我们可以采取一些措施来防止这场危机,比如种植更多本土物种和野花,减少花园中使用的化学品。“考虑一下我们购买的食物的来源也可能是一个好主意,”Outwaite 说。“所以,如果它们来自热带国家,可能会对那里的生物多样性产生很大影响。”)”可知,最后一段中 Outhwaite的话主要是关于如何保护昆虫多样性的建议。故选B。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第一段“Extreme land use combined with warming temperatures is pushing insect ecosystems toward collapse in some parts of the world, scientists reported Wednesday.(科学家周三报告称,极端的土地使用加上气温升高正在导致世界部分地区的昆虫生态系统崩溃。)”可知,文章主要介绍了极端的土地使用加上气温升高正在导致世界部分地区的昆虫生态系统崩溃,这进而影响了农作物产量,由此文章还就如何保护昆虫多样性提出了一些建议,由此可知,C项“昆虫生态系统需要帮助”适合作文章标题,故选C。

While many people might be quitting formal New Year’s decisions this year, others may mark a fresh start by deciding to make up for poor eating habits of the past. ___36___ Without a solid plan, you may fail quickly. So consider starting with these three easy ways to eat a healthier diet.
Aim for real food only. ___37___ Maybe it’s the whole thing (like a frozen dinner), or maybe it’s just part of your meal (like the bottled dressing on your salad). Think of where you can replace processed foods for healthier ones. For example, eat whole-grain pasta instead of enriched white-flour spaghetti.
Schedule your meals and snacks. Set times on your phone for three different meals and two snacks (if you need them). ___38___ This might control your desires, reduce stress about when you’ll eat next, and cut down on the extra calories of unnecessary snacking ——a real challenge if you’re close to a refrigerator all day while at home or work.
Reduce your portion (分量) sizes. If you’re like most Americans, you’re eating too much food. An easy way to carry out portion control: load your plate as you normally would, then put back a third or half of the food. ___39___
You don’t need to include all of these steps at one time; try one step per week. Write down what you’re eating and any thoughts or questions you have about the process. ___40___ Before long, you’ll have the confidence to attempt new steps.
A. Avoid having late-night meals or snacks.
B. Don’t eat in between these scheduled times.
C. Processed foods are linked with many diseases.
D. After a week, assess what worked and what didn’t.
E. You can also use a salad plate instead of a dinner plate.

Impressionism (late 19th to early 20th century)
The development of Western art slowed ____56____ the invention of photography in the mid-19th century. After that, paintings were no longer needed to preserve what people and the world looked like. Hence, ____57____ (paint) had to find a new way of looking at their art. From this, Impressionism emerged in France. The name of this new movement came from the painting by Claude Monet (1840-1926) ____58____ (call) Impression, Sunrise.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章分为两个部分,第一部分介绍了摄影术的发明迫使艺术家转向主观表达,莫奈的《日出·印象》开创了印象派;第二部分介绍了科学证据表明全球变暖加剧了极端天气,亟需国际政策行动以减少温室气体排放。
【56题详解】
考查介词。句意:西方艺术的发展缓慢,直到19世纪中期摄影术的发明。空后为名词短语,结合“The development of Western art slowed”可知,此处指“西方艺术的发展缓慢”这一事件终止于“19世纪中期摄影术的发明”,因此用介词until表示“直到……为止”。故填until。
【57题详解】
考查名词。句意:因此,画家们不得不寻找一种新的艺术视角。空处作主语,结合“find a new way of looking at their art”可知,名词painter符合题意,意为“画家”,且空前没有表示单数概念的修饰语,可数名词painter应用复数形式,表泛指。故填painters。
【58题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:这一新运动的名称源自克劳德·莫奈(1840—1926)创作的《日出·印象》。句子已有谓语,空处是非谓语,作the painting的后置定语,call“叫作”和the painting逻辑上是逻辑上的动宾关系,因此用call的过去分词形式表被动。故填called。
【59题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:在这幅作品中,莫奈的目的是传达场景中的光线和动态——即场景给他的主观印象——而非详细记录场景本身。空处作表语,aim“目的”作主语时,表语通常用不定式,表示预定将要发生的动作。故填to convey。
【60题详解】
考查冠词。句意:在这幅作品中,莫奈的目的是传达场景中的光线和动态——即场景给他的主观印象——而非详细记录场景本身。空处表示泛指,意为“对场景本身的一个详细记录”,应用不定冠词,且detailed的发音以辅音音素开头,应用a。故填a。
【61题详解】
考查同位语从句。句意:有强有力的综合证据表明,气温上升已导致全球极端天气和自然灾害增加,不仅造成严重破坏,还夺去了生命。空处引导名词性从句作evidence的同位语,同位语从句的成分和语义均完整,应用连接词that作引导词。故填that。
【62题详解】
考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:气候科学家已警告,若不采取适当措施,变暖趋势可能会持续,人类将付出更高昂的代价。空处作句子的谓语,结合前一句内容可知,时态应用现在完成时,表示动作完成,且主语scientists是复数,助动词应用have。故填have warned。
【63题详解】
考查比较级。句意:气候科学家已警告,若不采取适当措施,变暖趋势可能会持续,人类将付出更高昂的代价。空处作修饰price的定语,结合“this warming trend will probably continue”可知,此处指“人类将付出更高昂的代价”,应用形容词high的比较级。故填higher。
【64题详解】
考查介词。句意:持续的温室气体排放将导致进一步变暖,并引发全球气候的长期变化。结合“further warming and long-lasting changes”可知,此处应用固定短语result in表示“造成,引发”。故填in。
【65题详解】
考查连词。句意:政府需要考虑制定政策并采取适当的行动和措施来减少温室气体排放。空处连接前后两个名词actions和measures,两者之间是并列关系,应用并列连词and。故填and。

【答案】Dear Editor,
I’m Li Hua from Senior Two. I’m writing to talk about environmental problems on our campus and offer solutions for a green campus.
Currently, there are several concerning issues. In the cafeteria, many students use disposable chopsticks and plastic bags, generating a large amount of waste. In classrooms, some students forget to turn off fans during breaks. What’s more, there are few recycling bins, so recyclable materials often end up in regular trash.
To solve these, we could organize environmental clubs to promote awareness. Teachers can incorporate environmental education into daily lessons. We should also replace disposable items with reusable ones in the cafeteria and install more recycling bins across campus. With everyone’s dedication, we can create a much - greener campus.
Yours,
Li Hua

第二节(满分25分)
67. 阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Mike loved mint chocolate chip ice cream. Before every swim meet, he would have a bowl, believing it was his lucky charm. At first, it seemed to work. He won race after race, feeling on top of the world. His confidence soared, and he thought the ice cream was the secret to his success. His parents, though concerned about the unhealthy habit, let it slide as long as he was winning.
However, as time passed, Mike started to gain weight, and his performance in the pool suffered. He went from first place to last, and his once-unbeatable feeling was gone. He was confused and disappointed, not understanding why his "lucky charm" had failed. His parents decided it was time for a change. They sat him down and explained the importance of a balanced diet and regular exercise. Reluctantly, Mike agreed to give up the ice cream and start training harder.
His father offered to run with him, and they began a strict workout routine. At first, it was tough. Mike missed the comfort of his favorite ice cream, and practices were harder without the extra energy boost. But slowly, he started to feel healthier and stronger. His breathing improved, and he could swim faster and longer.
The day of the final swim meet of the season arrived. Mike stood at the edge of the pool, feeling nervous but determined. He took a deep breath, remembering all the hard work he and his dad had put in. With a powerful dive, he entered the water and began to swim. Stroke by stroke, he pushed himself, ignoring the burning in his muscles. As he swam, he could hear the cheers of the audience faintly in the background. With every lap, he gained more confidence. When he made the final turn, he saw the finish line ahead. He gathered all his strength for one last burst and touched the wall.
注意: 1. 续写词数应为 150 左右;
2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
As he lifted his head out of the water, Mike glanced up at the scoreboard.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Shortly after coming out of the pool, Mike rushed to his parents excitedly.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version :
As he lifted his head out of the water, Mike glanced up at the scoreboard. His name was at the top, displaying a personal best.
