For three months, no notifications buzzed at 3 a.m., no endless scrolling ate into my evenings. At first, it felt like losing a limb. I’d reach for my pocket, fingers hovering(盘旋) over an empty screen, before remembering the choice I’d made. It wasn’t until week four that the fog lifted. One Tuesday afternoon, I sat on a park bench and watched a sparrow(麻雀) build a nest in an oak tree. For 20 minutes, I did nothing but observe—its beak carrying twigs, its wings fluttering against the wind. I realized I hadn’t focused on a single thing for that long in years. Our phones, I mused, don’t just distract us; they rewire our brains to crave constant stimulation, turning us into strangers to the present moment. Critics call this “digital minimalism” a luxury. They argue that in a world run by emails and video calls, disconnecting is a privilege reserved for those who don’t need to hustle. There’s truth to that. A single mother juggling two jobs can’t afford to miss a school alert. A freelance writer depends on social media to find clients. But does that mean we surrender entirely to the noise? I’ve since reinstalled one app, but with strict rules: 15 minutes a day, no scrolling before breakfast. What I’ve gained is immeasurable. Conversations with friends now last longer than the time it takes to snap a photo. I’ve rediscovered the pleasure of boredom—the space where ideas grow. Technology isn’t the enemy. It’s the mindless consumption, the way we let algorithms dictate our attention, that diminishes us. To unplug(去除) occasionally isn’t to reject progress. It’s to reclaim ourselves. 24.How did the author feel shortly after deleting social media apps? A. Relieved. B. Indifferent. C. Delighted. D.Anxious. 25.What does the author realize while watching the sparrow? A. The joy of living in the moment. B. The importance of protecting nature. C. The difficulty of focusing on tasks. D. The necessity of observing wildlife. 26.What do critics think of digital minimalism? A. It is a sign of progress. B. It is a waste of time. C. It is only for certain people. D. It is harmful to social relationships. 27.What is the author’s view on technology? A. It should be abandoned completely. B. It has no negative effects on users. C. Its misuse is what causes problems. D. It is less important than personal relationships. C Cities worldwide are grappling with the urban heat island effect, a phenomenon where built-up areas are 2–8°C warmer than surrounding rural regions. This temperature gap, caused by heat-absorbing concrete and limited vegetation, increases energy use for cooling and exacerbates health risks during heatwaves. In Tokyo, where summer temperatures have risen by 3°C since 1970, a novel solution is taking root: vertical greenery. Vertical greenery—living walls covered in plants grown on building exteriors—functions as natural insulation. A 2024 study by the University of Stuttgart found that such walls can reduce a building’s energy consumption by 15–30%. The plants absorb solar radiation, release moisture through transpiration(蒸腾作用产生的水分), and create a buffer zone of cooler air. In Singapore’s Marina Bay district, a 50-story skyscraper(摩天大楼) with vertical greenery recorded an internal temperature 4°C lower than identical buildings without it. However, the effectiveness of vertical greenery depends on strategic design. Not all plants thrive on walls: species like ivy and ferns are preferred for their drought resistance and low maintenance, while sunflowers or tomatoes, despite their rapid growth, require frequent watering and soil replacement. The orientation(目标) of the wall also matters—east-facing walls, which receive morning sun, yield better results than west-facing ones bombarded by intense afternoon heat. Critics highlight hidden costs. Installing a living wall costs 3–5 times more than traditional cladding, and long-term upkeep requires specialized gardeners. “It’s a Band-Aid solution,” argues urban planner Dr. Elena Ruiz. “Cities need fewer parking lots and more parks, not just pretty walls.” Proponents counter that the benefits outweigh the costs: a Berlin study showed vertical greenery reduced hospital admissions for heat-related illnesses by 22% in neighborhoods with such installations. As cities like Sydney and Montreal pilot large-scale vertical greenery projects, the question remains not whether these living walls work, but how to integrate them into broader urban cooling strategies. 28.What is the primary cause of the urban heat island effect? A.Heat-retaining materials and scarce plants. B. Excessive use of air conditioning. C. Rising global temperatures due to climate change. D. High population density in urban areas. 29.Why are ivy and ferns recommended for vertical greenery? A. They grow rapidly to cover walls quickly. B. They thrive in intense afternoon sunlight. C. They release more moisture than other plants. D. They need little water and care. 30.What do critics emphasize about vertical greenery? A. It is ineffective in reducing indoor temperatures. B. It replaces public spaces like parks and playgrounds.. C. It requires more water than traditional gardens. D. ts initial and maintenance costs are too high 31.What can be inferred about vertical greenery from the passage? A. It is a standalone solution to urban heat. B. West-facing walls are ideal for most plant species. C. Its success depends on combining it with other measures. D. It is more cost-effective than building new parks. D We live in an age where every click, scroll, and purchase is tracked, analyzed, and used to serve us a “personalized” world. Algorithms, the invisible architects of this world, promise efficiency and satisfaction—why waste time on irrelevant content when a machine can curate your perfect feed? But this convenience comes at a steep cost: the slow erosion of our ability to think critically and engage with ideas outside our comfort zones. Proponents of algorithmic argue that they simply “give people what they want,” framing choice as a democratic(民主的) ideal. Yet this logic is flawed. When a platform learns you prefer conservative news, it stops showing liberal perspectives; if you binge true-crime podcasts, it floods your queue with similar content. Over time, your worldview shrinks, not by choice, but by design. Psychologists call this the “filter bubble”—a digital echo chamber where dissent is silenced and curiosity withers. Worse, algorithms prioritize engagement over accuracy. Outrageous claims and sensational headlines generate more clicks than nuanced analysis, so they rise to the top. A 2023 study found that 68% of users exposed primarily to algorithmic news developed more polarized(两极分化的) political views compared to those who sought out diverse sources intentionally. This isn’t just about information—it’s about how we form opinions. If we never encounter arguments that challenge our beliefs, we lose the muscle of critical thinking. Defenders counter that users can always “opt out” by adjusting settings or seeking alternative sources. But this ignores the reality of digital behavior: most people scroll mindlessly, trusting the algorithm to guide them. The burden of effort falls disproportionately(不成比例地) on the user, while platforms profit from our intellectual laziness. Algorithms are not inherently evil, but their current design serves corporate interests over human flourishing. To break free, we must reclaim agency—set limits on screen time, actively seek opposing views, and demand platforms prioritize diversity over engagement. The alternative is a world where no one thinks for themselves, because no one has to. 32.What is the main argument of the passage? A. Algorithms should be banned for spreading misinformation. B. Personalized harm our ability to think critically. C. Users are fully responsible for their digital choices. D. Platforms profit from catering to diverse interests. 33.Why does the author mention the “filter bubble”? A. To illustrate the narrowing effect of personalized. B.To explain how algorithms protect users from harmful content. C. To praise algorithms for creating a comfortable online space. D. To compare digital echo chambers with traditional media. 34.What do proponents of algorithmic fail to consider? A. Users’ ability to easily adjust their settings. B. The profit motives behind platform design. C. The passive nature of most digital consumption. D. The efficiency of personalized content delivery. 35.What does the author suggest to counteract the negative effects of algorithms? A. Regulating platforms to remove all recommendation systems. B. Encouraging users to actively engage with diverse viewpoints. C. Teaching algorithms to prioritize accuracy over engagement. D. Reducing screen time to avoid digital platforms entirely. 第二节 七选五（共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分） 根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Recovery after exercise varies greatly among individuals, even when they perform the same workouts. 36 Fitness level A person's current fitness level plays a key role in how quickly they recover. 37 Those who exercise regularly have stronger cardiovascular systems and more efficient muscle repair mechanisms, allowing them to bounce back faster than beginners. Sleep quality Sleep is when the body does most of its repair work. 38 Poor sleep, on the other hand, slows down recovery by reducing the production of growth hormones needed for tissue repair. Establishing a consistent sleep schedule is thus vital for optimal recovery. Nutrition intake What you eat after exercise directly affects recovery. 39 Protein helps rebuild muscle tissue, while carbohydrates replenish energy stores. Skipping post-workout meals or eating foods low in nutrients can significantly delay recovery. Stress levels Chronic stress can hinder the body's ability to recover. When stressed, the body releases cortisol, a hormone that breaks down muscle tissue and impairs immune function. 40 Finding ways to manage stress, such as through meditation or yoga, can therefore speed up recovery. Understanding these factors can help individuals adjust their routines to improve recovery and get the most out of their exercise efforts. A. This is why athletes often follow strict sleep plans. B. So what causes these differences in recovery speed? C. Nutrients like protein and carbs are especially important. D. It can also increase the risk of injury during subsequent workouts. E. People with higher fitness levels tend to recover more quickly. F. Everyone needs a different amount of sleep for proper recovery. G. Even minor changes in diet can have a big impact on recovery time. 第三部分 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, 从短文后所给各题的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中, 选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 By the time he was 24 years old, Imran Nuri quit his job in a bold move, and emptied his savings account to carry out an ambitious 41 he'd been bearing in mind.

Grandma was a master tailor, her fingers deftly stitching life into worn fabrics. One winter, she found a weary coat discarded behind the community center—a child’s size, its hem frayed and buttons missing. Instead of tossing it, she carried it home, spending weeks mending the tears with colorful threads and sewing on mismatched buttons she’d collected. “Everything deserves a second chance,” she’d say as she worked. On Christmas Eve, she left the coat on the porch of a family with a little girl, who wore it until it was too small. Years later, that girl—now a mother—returned the coat to Grandma, saying, “It kept me warm, just like your kindness.” Four years ago, when I was sixteen, I stumbled upon a similar treasure. My friend Mia and I were helping clean out the basement of the local library for a fundraiser. Amidst a pile of broken books, I spotted a leather-bound journal, its spine cracked and pages yellowed. Mia frowned, “It’s too damaged to sell. Should we recycle it?” But as I flipped through the brittle pages, a handwritten poem on the first page made me pause. 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 remembered Grandma’s words and dug through the supply closet. By the time we finished, the journal looked far from perfect but radiated warmth. 英语试卷第 7页（共10页） 英语试卷第 8页（共10页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
