As he grows you also age, and your ambitions become more unachievable. You begin to realize that your boy, in your footsteps, could probably accomplish what you hoped for. But footsteps can be muddied and they can go off in different directions. My son Jody has hated school since day one in kindergarten. Science projects waited until the last moment. Book reports weren’t written until the final threat. I’ve been a newspaperman all my adult life. My daughter is a university graduate working toward her master’s degree in English. But Jody? When he entered the tenth grade he became a “vo-tech” student (技校学生). They’re called “motorheads” by the rest of the student body. When a secretary in my office first called him “motorhead”, I was shocked. “Hey, he’s a good kid,” I wanted to say. “And smart, really.” I learned later that motorheads are, indeed, different. They usually have dirty hands and wear dirty work clothes. And they don’t often make school honor rolls (光荣榜). But being the parent of a motorhead is itself an experience in education. We who labor in clean shirts in offices don’t have the abilities that motorheads have. I began to learn this when I had my car crashed. The cost to repair it was estimated at $800. ”Hey, I can fix it," said Jody. I doubted it, but let him go ahead, for I had nothing to lose. My son, with other motorheads, fixed the car. They got parts (零件) from a junkyard, and ability from vo-tech classes. The cost was $25 instead of $800. Since that first repair job, a broken air-conditioner, a non-functioning washer and a non-toasting toaster have been fixed. Neighbors and co-workers trust their car repairs to him. These kids are happiest when doing repairs. They joke and laugh and are living in their own relaxed world. And their minds are bright despite their dirty hands and clothes. I have learned a lot from my motorhead: publishers need printers, engineers need mechanics, and architects need builders. Most importantly, I have learned that fathers don’t need clones in footsteps or anywhere else. My son may never make the school honor roll. But he made mine. 4. What used to be the author’s hope for his son? A. To avoid becoming his clone. B. To resemble him in appearance. C. To develop in a different direction. D. To reach the author’s unachieved goals. 5. Why did the author let his son repair the car? A. He believed that his son had the ability to fix it. B. He believed that it would save him much time. C. He believed that it wouldn’t cause him any more loss. D. He believed that other motorheads would come to help. 6. In the author’s eyes, motorheads are__________. A. tidy and hard-working B. cheerful and smart C. lazy but bright D. relaxed but rude 7. What did the author realize in the end? A. It is unwise to expect your child to follow your path. B. It is important for one to make the honor roll. C. Architects play a more important role than builders. D. Motorheads have greater ability than office workers. 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. B 7. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者的儿子在学校里不是优秀学生，最后成了一名修车工，这并不是作者希望他走的路。但是作者通过让儿子给自己修车的经历意识到：在学校里是优秀学生并不是那么重要，让孩子追随父亲的足迹也是不明智的。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段第三句“You begin to realize that your boy, in your footsteps, could probably accomplish what you hoped for.(你开始意识到你的儿子，跟随你的脚步，可能会实现你的愿望。)”可知，作者原先希望儿子去实现自己未能实现的目标。故选D项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。由第六段最后“I doubted it, but let him go ahead, for I had nothing to lose.(我对此表示怀疑，但还是由着他去了，因为我没有什么可失去的。) ”可知，作者认为让儿子修车不会给自己带来任何损失。故选C项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第三段第一句“These kids are happiest when doing repairs.(这些孩子在做修理工作的时候最开心的。) ”可知，这些孩子做修理工作时是快乐的；由第二句“They joke and laugh and are living in their own relaxed world.(他们谈笑风生，活在自己轻松的世界里。) ”可知，这些孩子在他们自己的世界里是放松的；由第三句“And their minds are bright despite their dirty hands and clothes.(尽管他们的手和衣服很脏，但他们的头脑很聪明。) ”可知，这些孩子们的头脑是聪明的。由此可知，在作者看来，这些孩子是快乐的，放松的，聪明的。故选B项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。由倒数第二段最后一句“Most importantly, I have learned that fathers don't need clones in footsteps or anywhere else.(最重要的是，我明白了父亲们不需要孩子来模仿他们的脚步或其他地方。)”可知，作者最后意识到，让孩子追随自己的足迹是不明智的。故选A项。 C Recycling lithium-ion (锂离子) batteries to recover their critical metals like lithium, nickel and cobalt has significantly lower environmental impacts than mining raw metals, according to a new Stanford University life cycle analysis published in Nature Communications. The study quantifies the environmental footprint of this recycling process, and finds it gives off less than half the greenhouse gases (GHGs) of conventional mining and uses about one-fourth of the water and energy of mining new metals. The environmental benefits are even greater for the scrap (废料) stream, which accounted for about 90% of the recycled supply studied. Battery recycling’s environmental impacts depend heavily on the processing facility’s location and electricity source. “A battery recycling plant in regions that rely heavily on electricity generated by burning coal would see a reduced climate advantage,” said Samantha Bunk e, one of the study’s three lead investigators. “On the other hand, freshwater shortages in regions with cleaner electricity are a great concern,” added Bunk e. Most of the study’s data for battery recycling came from Redwood Materials in Nevada — North America’s largest industrial-scale lithium-ion battery recycling facility — which benefits from the western U.S.’s cleaner energy mix. Redwood, which has since broken ground on a new facility in South Carolina, was one of the first to apply the lessons of this project to their own operations and environmental footprint. Its founder, JB Straubel said that the insights of this research have played a key role in refining Redwood’s battery recycling processes. “Thanks to the researchers’ observations, we have further reduced our environmental footprint,” he noted. While the U.S. now recycles about 50% of available lithium-ion batteries, it has successfully recycled 99% of lead-acid batteries for decades. “Given that used lithium-ion batteries contain materials with up to 10 times higher economic value, the opportunity is significant,” senior author William Tarpeh said. “For a future with a greatly increased supply of used batteries, we need to design and prepare a recycling system today from collection to processing back into new batteries with minimal environmental impact,” he added. “Hopefully, battery producers will consider how to make their batteries more recyclable in their future plans, too.” 8. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The effectiveness of energy use. B. Methods of conducting the study. C. The complexity of the recycling process. D. Advantages of recycling lithium-ion batteries. 9. Why is Redwood Materials mentioned? A. To show the key role of battery industries. B. To highlight its reduced climate advantage. C. To illustrate the practical use of the research. D. To criticize its lasting environmental footprint. 10. What does the underlined word “refining” mean in paragraph 4? A. Shaking. B. Bettering. C. Starting. D. Limiting. 11. What is Tarpeh’s suggestion for battery producers? A. Improve their recycling system. B. Limit the use of lead-acid batteries. C Focus on their processing cost. D. Prioritize recyclability in their designs. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章基于斯坦福大学发表在《自然・通讯》上的生命周期分析，阐述了回收锂离子电池相较于开采原生金属在环境影响方面的显著优势，同时提及回收效果受设施位置和电力来源影响、相关研究成果的实际应用以及未来锂离子电池回收体系建设的建议等内容。 【8题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段中的“The study quantifies the environmental footprint of this recycling process, and finds it gives off less than half the greenhouse gases (GHGs) of conventional mining and uses about one-fourth of the water and energy of mining new metals. (这项研究量化了这种回收过程的环境足迹，发现它排放的温室气体不到传统采矿的一半，消耗的水和能源约为开采新金属的四分之一)”可知，该段主要讨论了回收锂离子电池相较于开采新金属在环境方面的优势，包括减少温室气体排放、降低水和能源消耗等。故选D项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Most of the study’s data for battery recycling came from Redwood Materials in Nevada — North America’s largest industrial-scale lithium-ion battery recycling facility — which benefits from the western U.S.’s cleaner energy mix. (这项研究的大部分电池回收数据来自内华达州的Redwood Materials公司，这是北美最大的工业规模锂离子电池回收设施，得益于美国西部更清洁的能源组合)”以及第四段中的“Redwood, which has since broken ground on a new facility in South Carolina, was one of the first to apply the lessons of this project to their own operations and environmental footprint. (Redwood已在南卡罗来纳州破土动工建设新的设施，该公司是最早将此项目的经验应用到自身运营和环境足迹的企业之一)”可知，文中提到Redwood Materials这家公司是为了举例说明这项研究的实际应用。故选C项。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段中的“Its founder, JB Straubel said that the insights of this research have played a key role in refining Redwood’s battery recycling processes. “Thanks to the researchers’ observations, we have further reduced our environmental footprint,” he noted. (其创始人JB Straubel表示这项研究的见解在refining Redwood的电池回收流程中发挥了关键作用。他指出：“由于研究人员的观察，我们进一步减少了我们的环境足迹)”可推知“refining”与“Bettering”意思相近，在句中意为“改进”。故选B项。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的““Hopefully, battery producers will consider how to make their batteries more recyclable in their future plans, too.” (希望电池生产商也能在未来的计划中考虑如何提高电池的可回收性)”可知，Tarpeh建议电池生产商在未来的计划中考虑如何使电池更具可回收性。故选D项。 D The story of The Emperor’s New Clothes is one of Andersen’s best-known fables. Conmen (骗子) fool the emperor into believing they have made him a fabulous suit that the unworthy will be unable to see. Courtiers (侍从) dare not say that the emperor is naked; it takes a child to point out the obvious. The moral is that people are often too hidebound by social tradition to state their views. How many companies have pursued costly projects favoured by the chief executive, even when other managers have had doubts? In his book Rebel Ideas: The Power of Diverse Thinking, Matthew Syed argues that the key to dealing with this problem is “cognitive diversity”, in other words, assembling a team of people with different perspectives and intellectual backgrounds. Individuals from varied backgrounds approach problems differently. It is not merely about electing people for teams from both sexes and various ethnicities. Hire only Cambridge politics graduates or Harvard MBAs or Stanford software engineers and they will have studied under the same professors and absorbed similar world views regardless of their gender or skin colour. In today’s complex world, cooperation is crucial for breakthroughs. In science and engineering, 90% of papers are produced by teams rather than individuals. Since 1975, team-based patents have dominated across all categories in the United States. There is another element to selecting a good team: ensuring that those viewpoints are heard and respected. That may not happen if those in charge are arrogant. A study of over 300 projects by the Rotterdam School of Management found that those led by junior managers were more likely to succeed than those led by senior managers — maybe because other team members were less scared about pointing out potential dangers to someone less senior. This freedom to speak without fear of punishment is known as “psychological safety.” Syed cites a Google study identifying it as the most important factor behind effective teamwork. For example, during brainstorming, allowing anonymous idea submission helps reduce the influence of seniority and encourages honest feedback. 12. The first paragraph is intended to ________. A. argue children’s wisdom over adults B. confirm the popularity of Andersen’s fables C. introduce the problem of fear to express truth in groups D. make fun of the foolishness of the emperor and his courtiers 13. What kind of people are “hidebound”? A. Those opposing team activities. B. Those trapped in a fixed mindset. C. Those overly focusing on others’ behavior. D. Those challenging traditional ways of thinking. 14. What does the author suggest a company do as to assembling an effective team? A. Select people from diverse cognitive backgrounds. B. Employ graduates from the same top university. C. Appoint senior managers to pose strict control. D. Hire people in line with the chief executive. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. Cognitive Diversity: Daring to Differ B. Junior Managers: Making Better Leaders C. The Emperor’s New Clothes: Lying to Obey D. The Google Study: Unlocking Psychological Safety 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. A 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章借《皇帝的新装》引出问题，论述团队需认知多样性与心理安全以应对问题。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“The story of The Emperor’s New Clothes is one of Andersen’s best-known fables. Conmen (骗子) fool the emperor into believing they have made him a fabulous suit that the unworthy will be unable to see. Courtiers (侍从) dare not say that the emperor is naked; it takes a child to point out the obvious.(《皇帝的新装》是安徒生最广为人知的寓言故事之一。骗子哄骗皇帝，让他相信自己为他们制作了一套极为华美的衣服，而那些不称职的人将无法看到这套衣服。侍从们不敢说皇帝其实一丝不挂，最后是一个孩子指出了这个显而易见的事实。)”以及第二段“The moral is that people are often too hidebound by social tradition to state their views. How many companies have pursued costly projects favoured by the chief executive, even when other managers have had doubts?(这个故事传达的寓意是，人们常常深受社会传统的束缚，不敢表达自己的观点。有多少公司在首席执行官青睐成本高昂的项目时，即便其他经理心存疑虑，却仍一意孤行地推进呢？)”可知，第一段通过《皇帝的新装》的故事引出在群体中因恐惧而不敢表达真相的问题。故选C。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“The moral is that people are often too hidebound by social tradition to state their views.(这个故事传达的寓意是，人们常常深受社会传统的束缚，不敢表达自己的观点。)”可知，受社会传统束缚的人，即那些陷入固定思维模式的人。故选B。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“In his book Rebel Ideas: The Power of Diverse Thinking, Matthew Syed argues that the key to dealing with this problem is “cognitive diversity”, in other words, assembling a team of people with different perspectives and intellectual backgrounds.(Matthew Syed在其著作《叛逆思想：多元思维的力量》中指出，解决这一问题的关键在于“认知多样性”，换句话说，就是组建一个由具有不同观点和知识背景的人组成的团队。)”可知，作者建议公司从不同的认知背景中挑选人员来组建有效的团队。故选A。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据第三段中“In his book Rebel Ideas: The Power of Diverse Thinking, Matthew Syed argues that the key to dealing with this problem is “cognitive diversity”, in other words, assembling a team of people with different perspectives and intellectual backgrounds.(Matthew Syed在其著作《叛逆思想：多元思维的力量》中指出，解决这一问题的关键在于“认知多样性”，换句话说，就是组建一个由具有不同观点和知识背景的人组成的团队。)”可知，文章主要围绕组建有效团队需要认知多样性展开，鼓励人们敢于提出不同观点。所以“Cognitive Diversity: Daring to Differ(认知多样性：敢于不同)”可以作为文章标题。故选A。 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项。 School phobia is a type of illness which causes the students, typically between the ages of 8-13, to be afraid to go to school.

After careful consideration, I’d like to vote for “Emotional Outlets” instead of “Futuristic Visions”. As high school students, we often face pressure from studies and relationships, but many of us struggle to find proper ways to release emotions. This topic is highly relevant for students, as it provides a platform to openly discuss emotions, stress management, and mental well-being. It would not only help improve our English expression but also create a supportive community where we can share experiences and coping strategies. This theme encourages empathy, self-reflection, and practical communication skills, making it both meaningful and engaging. I’m looking forward to the first episode! Yours, Li Hua 例文② Dear David, I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to share my thoughts on the proposed podcast themes. After careful consideration, I would like to recommend “Futuristic Visions” as the theme for our weekly English podcast. I believe this topic will greatly engage students because it encourages creativity and critical thinking about technological advancements, environmental solutions, and societal changes. It aligns with our generation’s interest in innovation and allows us to explore diverse perspectives. Additionally, discussing future trends can inspire practical language use, as it involves describing possibilities, expressing opinions, and debating ideas. This theme not only enhances our language skills but also broadens our horizons. Thank you for considering my suggestion. I am excited about the podcast and look forward to contributing Yours, Li Hua 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达属于应用文。要求考生以李华的身份给外教David写一封英文邮件，就创办每周英语视频播客的主题提出选择并阐述推荐理由。 【详解】1.词汇积累 观点：opinion → view 压力：pressure → stress 相关的：relevant → related 提高：improve → enhance 2.句式拓展 简单句变复合句 原句：After careful consideration, I’d like to vote for “Emotional Outlets” instead of “Futuristic Visions”. 拓展句：After I have given it careful consideration, I’d like to vote for “Emotional Outlets” instead of “Futuristic Visions”. 【点睛】【高分句型1】This topic is highly relevant for students, as it provides a platform to openly discuss emotions, stress management, and mental well-being.（运用了as引导的原因状语从句） 【高分句型2】It would not only help improve our English expression but also create a supportive community where we can share experiences and coping strategies.（运用了where引导的限制性定语从句） 第二节（满分25分） 47. 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。 The moment Michael Armus set foot into the Bank of the West in Woodland, California, to deposit a check, he felt the tension. “Something’s not right.” The cheerful greetings he usually received were absent. Tellers avoided eye contact, their faces pale. The bank manager sat rigidly at his desk, head lowered. Armus looked to his left and noticed a man at another window with his striped T-shirt pulled up to partially hide his face. “This is a robbery,” thought Armus. He heard the man say, “I don’t want to hurt anybody.” Minutes earlier, the man had passed a note to the teller demanding cash and saying he had a gun. Armus looked again and the man’s shirt had dropped a bit, exposing more of his face. Just at that moment, Armus recognized the would-be robber as someone he’d passed several times on a street corner reading aloud from his Bible and speaking to passersby. Walking closer, Armus gently asked, “What’s wrong? Don’t you have a job?” The man froze, tears spilling down his cheeks. “There’s nothing in this town for me! I just want to go to prison!” The raw despair reminded Armus of his own dark past — down and out, been to prison. His life was a mess. But he got another chance. Suddenly, instead of being frightened, Armus felt compassion for him, and a thought popped into his head: Maybe I can help. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 “Let’s talk outside,” Armus suggested, putting his arm around the man. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Praised for easing a tense situation by a warm hug, Armus was modest. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 “Let’s talk outside,” Armus suggested, putting his arm around the man. Remarkably, the man agreed and the two walked out of the bank. Once outside, Armus wrapped the man in a warm hug, and the would-be robber began to sob in his embrace. Armus sat him down on a bench and listened intently as the man poured out his woes. He’d lost his job, his family drowning in debt, and he saw no way out. Armus shared his own story of redemption, offering hope. Slowly, the man’s shoulders relaxed, and he began to see a glimmer of a different future. It turned out that the man, who was eventually charged with attempted robbery, never had a gun. The police arrived, but Armus pleaded for mercy, believing everyone deserved a second chance. Praised for easing a tense situation by a warm hug, Armus was modest. “I heard something in his voice,” Armus explained. He empathized how desperate the man had to be, to be throwing his life away like this for Armus himself deeply knew what it’s like to feel hopeless and helpless. “I just saw myself in him,” he said. “We all make mistakes, and sometimes all it takes is for someone to show a little kindness.” Armus even offered to help the man find a job and get back on his feet. His actions not only averted a tragedy that day but also became a powerful reminder that compassion and understanding can transform lives and turn desperate situations around. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Michael Armus在银行偶遇一场抢劫未遂事件，他认出劫匪就是常在街头给路人读圣经故事的人，心生怜悯，于是上前安抚并成功说服他放下劫念。Armus的善举和爱心改变了劫匪的人生轨迹，展现了同情和理解的力量。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容““我们到外面谈吧。”Armus建议道，用胳膊搂住了那个人”可知，第一段可描写劫匪和Armus走出银行，诉说自己的不幸，Armus用自己的经历安抚他，并在警察到来后为他恳求宽恕。 ②由第二段首句内容“因为温暖的拥抱缓和了紧张的局势而受到称赞，Armus很谦虚。”可知，第二段可描写Armus本人的谦逊回应，展现其品格，并主动提出帮助劫匪找工作，将善意延伸到实际行动。 2.续写线索：走出银行——劫匪诉说痛苦——分享自己的经历——恳求警察宽恕——谦虚回应——为劫匪提供实际帮助 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①恳求：plead/beg ②强调：empathize/put emphasis on ③防止、避免：avert/prevent 情绪类 ①痛苦：woe/pain ②友善：kindness/goodwill 【点睛】[高分句型1] It turned out that the man, who was eventually charged with attempted robbery, never had a gun.（运用了由关系代词who引导的非限制性定语从句） [高分句型2] He empathized how desperate the man had to be, to be throwing his life away like this for Armus himself deeply know what it’s like to feel hopeless and helpless.（运用了由连接副词how和连接代词what引导的宾语从句） [高分句型3] His actions not only averted a tragedy that day but also became a powerful reminder that compassion and understanding can transform lives and turn desperate situations around.（运用了由that引导的同位语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 雅礼中学2026届高三月考试卷（二） 英语 本试题卷分为听力、阅读、语言运用和写作四个部分，共10页。时量120分钟。满分150分。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 例: How much is the shirt?

As he grows you also age, and your ambitions become more unachievable. You begin to realize that your boy, in your footsteps, could probably accomplish what you hoped for. But footsteps can be muddied and they can go off in different directions. My son Jody has hated school since day one in kindergarten. Science projects waited until the last moment. Book reports weren’t written until the final threat. I’ve been a newspaperman all my adult life. My daughter is a university graduate working toward her master’s degree in English. But Jody? When he entered the tenth grade he became a “vo-tech” student (技校学生). They’re called “motorheads” by the rest of the student body. When a secretary in my office first called him “motorhead”, I was shocked. “Hey, he’s a good kid,” I wanted to say. “And smart, really.” I learned later that motorheads are indeed, different. They usually have dirty hands and wear dirty work clothes. And they don’t often make school honor rolls (光荣榜). But being the parent of a motorhead is itself an experience in education. We who labor in clean shirts in offices don’t have the abilities that motorheads have. I began to learn this when I had my car crashed. The cost to repair it was estimated at $800. ”Hey, I can fix it," said Jody. I doubted it, but let him go ahead, for I had nothing to lose. My son, with other motorheads, fixed the car. They got parts (零件) from a junkyard, and ability from vo-tech classes. The cost was $25 instead of $800. Since that first repair job, a broken air-conditioner, a non-functioning washer and a non-toasting toaster have been fixed. Neighbors and co-workers trust their car repairs to him. These kids are happiest when doing repairs. They joke and laugh and are living in their own relaxed world. And their minds are bright despite their dirty hands and clothes. I have learned a lot from my motorhead: publishers need printers, engineers need mechanics, and architects need builders. Most importantly, I have learned that fathers don’t need clones in footsteps or anywhere else. My son may never make the school honor roll. But he made mine. 4. What used to be the author’s hope for his son? A. To avoid becoming his clone. B. To resemble him in appearance. C. To develop in a different direction. D. To reach the author’s unachieved goals. 5. Why did the author let his son repair the car? A. He believed that his son had the ability to fix it. B. He believed that it would save him much time. C. He believed that it wouldn’t cause him any more loss. D. He believed that other motorheads would come to help. 6. In the author’s eyes, motorheads are__________. A. tidy and hard-working B. cheerful and smart C. lazy but bright D. relaxed but rude 7. What did the author realize in the end? A. It is unwise to expect your child to follow your path. B. It is important for one to make the honor roll. C. Architects play a more important role than builders. D. Motorheads have greater ability than office workers. C Recycling lithium-ion (锂离子) batteries to recover their critical metals like lithium, nickel and cobalt has significantly lower environmental impacts than mining raw metals, according to a new Stanford University life cycle analysis published in Nature Communications. The study quantifies the environmental footprint of this recycling process, and finds it gives off less than half the greenhouse gases (GHGs) of conventional mining and uses about one-fourth of the water and energy of mining new metals. The environmental benefits are even greater for the scrap (废料) stream, which accounted for about 90% of the recycled supply studied. Battery recycling’s environmental impacts depend heavily on the processing facility’s location and electricity source. “A battery recycling plant in regions that rely heavily on electricity generated by burning coal would see a reduced climate advantage,” said Samantha Bunk e, one of the study’s three lead investigators. “On the other hand, freshwater shortages in regions with cleaner electricity are a great concern,” added Bunk e. Most of the study’s data for battery recycling came from Redwood Materials in Nevada — North America’s largest industrial-scale lithium-ion battery recycling facility — which benefits from the western U.S.’s cleaner energy mix. Redwood, which has since broken ground on a new facility in South Carolina, was one of the first to apply the lessons of this project to their own operations and environmental footprint. Its founder, JB Straubel said that the insights of this research have played a key role in refining Redwood’s battery recycling processes. “Thanks to the researchers’ observations, we have further reduced our environmental footprint,” he noted. While the U.S. now recycles about 50% of available lithium-ion batteries, it has successfully recycled 99% of lead-acid batteries for decades. “Given that used lithium-ion batteries contain materials with up to 10 times higher economic value, the opportunity is significant,” senior author William Tarpeh said. “For a future with a greatly increased supply of used batteries, we need to design and prepare a recycling system today from collection to processing back into new batteries with minimal environmental impact,” he added. “Hopefully, battery producers will consider how to make their batteries more recyclable in their future plans, too.” 8. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The effectiveness of energy use. B. Methods of conducting the study. C. The complexity of the recycling process. D. Advantages of recycling lithium-ion batteries. 9. Why is Redwood Materials mentioned? A. To show the key role of battery industries. B. To highlight its reduced climate advantage. C. To illustrate the practical use of the research. D. To criticize its lasting environmental footprint. 10 What does the underlined word “refining” mean in paragraph 4? A. Shaking. B. Bettering. C.

Prioritize recyclability in their designs. D The story of The Emperor’s New Clothes is one of Andersen’s best-known fables. Conmen (骗子) fool the emperor into believing they have made him a fabulous suit that the unworthy will be unable to see. Courtiers (侍从) dare not say that the emperor is naked; it takes a child to point out the obvious. The moral is that people are often too hidebound by social tradition to state their views. How many companies have pursued costly projects favoured by the chief executive, even when other managers have had doubts? In his book Rebel Ideas: The Power of Diverse Thinking, Matthew Syed argues that the key to dealing with this problem is “cognitive diversity”, in other words, assembling a team of people with different perspectives and intellectual backgrounds. Individuals from varied backgrounds approach problems differently. It is not merely about electing people for teams from both sexes and various ethnicities. Hire only Cambridge politics graduates or Harvard MBAs or Stanford software engineers and they will have studied under the same professors and absorbed similar world views regardless of their gender or skin colour. In today’s complex world, cooperation is crucial for breakthroughs. In science and engineering, 90% of papers are produced by teams rather than individuals. Since 1975, team-based patents have dominated across all categories in the United States. There is another element to selecting a good team: ensuring that those viewpoints are heard and respected. That may not happen if those in charge are arrogant. A study of over 300 projects by the Rotterdam School of Management found that those led by junior managers were more likely to succeed than those led by senior managers — maybe because other team members were less scared about pointing out potential dangers to someone less senior. This freedom to speak without fear of punishment is known as “psychological safety.” Syed cites a Google study identifying it as the most important factor behind effective teamwork. For example, during brainstorming, allowing anonymous idea submission helps reduce the influence of seniority and encourages honest feedback. 12. The first paragraph is intended to ________.

Tellers avoided eye contact, their faces pale. The bank manager sat rigidly at his desk, head lowered. Armus looked to his left and noticed a man at another window with his striped T-shirt pulled up to partially hide his face. “This is a robbery,” thought Armus. He heard the man say, “I don’t want to hurt anybody.” Minutes earlier, the man had passed a note to the teller demanding cash and saying he had a gun. Armus looked again and the man’s shirt had dropped a bit, exposing more of his face. Just at that moment, Armus recognized the would-be robber as someone he’d passed several times on a street corner reading aloud from his Bible and speaking to passersby. Walking closer, Armus gently asked, “What’s wrong? Don’t you have a job?” The man froze, tears spilling down his cheeks. “There’s nothing in this town for me! I just want to go to prison!” The raw despair reminded Armus of his own dark past — down and out, been to prison. His life was a mess. But he got another chance. Suddenly, instead of being frightened, Armus felt compassion for him, and a thought popped into his head: Maybe I can help. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 “Let’s talk outside,” Armus suggested, putting his arm around the man. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Praised for easing a tense situation by a warm hug, Armus was modest. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
