Rising temperatures might boost crop production in cold regions but negatively impact production in warmer areas. Wheat and rice—which benefit from more CO2 in the atmosphere—could see growing output, while corn and sorghum(高粱) could see a decline with warmer temperatures. Farmers can adjust their practices to a warmer climate in four key ways: A recent study by experts modeled three adaptation methods—changing WHAT, changing WHEN and changing both of them. The chart below shows their impact on the output of corn, rice, sorghum, soybean (大豆) and wheat. These three adaptation methods can already go some way to relieve climate pressures in some countries. But, of course, we don’t only care about crop production at the global level. If farmers in particular regions — especially those that are most food-insecure — cannot adapt to climate change, this is still a major problem. So there is more we can do in the future. 1. What aspect of farming should farmers change if their budget is limited? A. WHAT. B. WHERE. C. HOW. D. WHEN. 2. Which crop benefits most when planted as an alternative? A. Soybean. B. Rice. C. Sorghum. D. Wheat. 3. What can be done in the future? A. Help farmers in need. B. Adopt the three methods. C. Move to colder regions. D. Improve food production. 【答案】1. D 2. B 3. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了气候变化对全球粮食生产的影响以及农民应对气候变暖的四种主要方式。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。原文思维导图中WHEN部分“Adjusting planting dates requires no additional cost or work.(调整种植日期无需额外投入成本或增加工作量。)”可知，如果农民资金和劳动力短缺，可选择调整种植时间。故选D。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Wheat and rice — which benefit from more CO2 in the atmosphere — could see growing output, while corn and sorghum (高粱) could see a decline with warmer temperatures.(小麦和水稻——得益于大气中二氧化碳含量的增加 —— 产量可能会有所提升，而玉米和高粱则会因气温升高导致产量下降。)”和灰色柱状图中的最高数值是Rice的15%可知，在仅改变作物品种的情况下，稻米（Rice）的产量增幅是最大的。故选B。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“If farmers in particular regions — especially those that are most food-insecure — cannot adapt to climate change, this is still a major problem. So there is more we can do in the future.(如果特定地区的农民——特别是那些粮食最不安全的地区——无法适应气候变化，这仍然是一个主要问题。因此，未来我们还可以做更多。)”可知，未来应该帮助有需要的农民，特别是那些粮食最不安全的地区的农民。故选A。 B On a warm afternoon in Queensland, Australia, 17-month-old Charlotte was toddling (蹒跚学步) in the sunlit yard, trying to catch a butterfly joyfully. Nearby, Khan, the Svilicic family’s newly adopted Doberman, watched her closely. The 90-pound creature had suffered months of abuse from his previous owner before his rescue. Yet, over four short days, he’d begun to relax — tail wagging madly when Charlotte offered him her snacks. Suddenly, Khan became fierce, his muscles tensing and a low roar coming out of his throat. Catherine Svilicic, Charlotte’s mother, looked up from her gardening, uneasy. Before she could react, Khan jumped at Charlotte, knocking her sideways with his shoulder. “No, Khan!” Catherine screamed, dropping her tools. But the Doberman didn’t stop. He grabbed Charlotte by the diaper (尿片), throwing her several feet across the yard. Horror gave way to clarity as Catherine spotted the threat — a poisonous brown snake was heading right for the little girl. Khan’s “attack” had been a desperate rescue: this brave dog got Charlotte out of the way just in time and instead, he was bitten by the snake moments later. At the clinic, Khan received anti-venom just in time. The vet (兽医) warned that without his quick actions, the bite would have been deadly for Charlotte. “He took the hit for her,” Catherine whispered, tears streaming as she gently touched Khan’s bandaged (缠绷带的) paw. The family had doubted adopting a Doberman with a painful past, but Khan’s courage erased every worry. “He’s family now,” Catherine told reporters later. “We’ll spend years making sure he knows how loved he is.” Khan’s recovery was slow but successful. He and Charlotte became inseparable — she’d sleep against his side, tiny hand resting on his scarred body. The Svilicics fixed a snake-proof fence but knew no barrier could match the loyalty of their four-legged guardian. 4. Why did Khan jump at Charlotte? A. He mistook her for a threat. B. He attempted to defend her. C. He disliked the snacks she offered. D. He suffered constant abuse from her. 5. Which of the following best describes Khan based on the story? A. Joyful and relaxed. B. Painful and guarded. C. Sharp and protective. D. Loyal and independent. 6. How did the family’s attitude towards Khan change in the story? A. From trust to caution. B. From doubt to sympathy. C. From dislike to admiration. D. From uncertainty to devotion. 7. What can be inferred about the family’s future actions? A. They will fix a barrier to stop snakes. B. They will avoid gardening in the yard. C. They will prioritize Khan’s well-being. D. They will train Khan to hunt for snakes. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了杜宾犬Khan为保护小女孩被毒蛇咬了，然后得到小女孩家人的认可。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Khan’s “attack” had been a desperate rescue: this brave dog got Charlotte out of the way just in time and instead, he was bitten by the snake moments later.(Khan的“攻击”是一种不顾后果的救援：这只勇敢的狗及时让夏洛特躲开了，但片刻之后，他就被蛇咬了)”可知，Khan之所以跳起来是因为想保护夏洛特。故选B项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Khan’s “attack” had been a desperate rescue: this brave dog got Charlotte out of the way just in time and instead, he was bitten by the snake moments later.(Khan的“攻击”是一种不顾后果的救援：这只勇敢的狗及时让夏洛特躲开了，但片刻之后，他就被蛇咬了)”可知，Khan的反应灵敏，而且愿意保护夏洛特。故选C项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的 “The family had doubted adopting a Doberman with a painful past, but Khan’s courage erased every worry. “He’s family now,” Catherine told reporters later. “We’ll spend years making sure he knows how loved he is.”(这家人曾怀疑收养一只有着痛苦过去的杜宾犬，但Khan的勇气消除了所有担忧。凯瑟琳后来告诉记者：“他现在是家人了。我们会花很多年让他知道自己有多被爱”)” 可知，这家人对Khan的态度从最初的不确定转变为全身心的关爱与投入。故选D项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“We’ll spend years making sure he knows how loved he is.(我们将花费数年时间确保他知道自己是多么受到珍爱)”可推断，这家人在将来的日子里会珍爱这条狗，家人未来会优先考虑Khan的幸福与安康，给予他足够的关爱与照顾。故选C项。 C After earning a bachelor’s degree, I was determined to do what I love, so I headed straight to graduate school to investigate social problems. For almost a decade, I told everyone I encountered that they should do the same. “Follow your passion,” I suggested. “You can figure out the employment stuff later.” It wasn’t until I began to research this widely accepted career advice that I understood how problematic it really was. As a sociologist, I interviewed college students and professional workers to learn what it really meant to pursue their dreams, which I will refer to here as the passion principle. I was stunned by what I found out about it. Surveys show the American public has long held the passion principle as a career decision-making priority. And its popularity is even stronger among those facing job instability. Advocates believe following one’s passion can provide workers with both the motivation necessary to work hard and a place to find fulfillment. Yet, what I found is that this path does not necessarily lead to fulfillment, but is one of the most powerful cultural forces that aggravate overwork. I also found that promoting the pursuit of one’s passion helps aggravate social inequalities. While the passion principle is broadly popular, not everyone has the necessary resources to turn their passion into a stable, good-paying job. Passion-seekers from wealthy families are better able to wait until a job they are passionate about comes along without worrying about student loans. And they often have access to parents’ social networks to help them find jobs. Surveys revealed that working-class and first-generation college graduates, regardless of their career field, are more likely than their wealthier peers to end up in low-paying unskilled jobs when they pursue their passion. It’s not just well-off passion-seekers who benefit from the passion principle. Employers of passionate workers do, too. They showed greater interest in passionate applicants in part because they believed the applicants would work hard at their jobs without expecting an increase in pay. They even sacrifice a good salary, job stability and leisure time to work in a job they love. 8. What did the author advise people do for almost a decade? A. Pursue their careers with passion. B. Do whatever that fascinates them. C. Follow widely accepted career advice. D. Study social problems in graduate school. 9. How did the author feel about the passion principle through his research? A. He was right to have followed it. B. He was struck by its broad popularity. C. He was astonished by its consequences. D. He was further convinced of its soundness. 10. What does the underlined word “aggravate” in Paragraph 4 most probably mean? A. Intensify. B. Prevent. C. Address. D. Deserve. 11. What does the author say about employers of passionate workers? A. They sacrifice stability to work in their job. B. They help passion-seekers become well-off. C. They let their workers benefit from the principle. D. They take advantage of the passionate workers. 【答案】8. A 9. C 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述了作者对“追随热情”这一职业建议的看法转变，作者原本坚信并建议他人追随热情，但通过研究发现这一原则存在问题，不仅不一定带来满足感，还会加剧过度工作和社会不平等，同时雇主也会利用热情的求职者。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“For almost a decade, I told everyone I encountered that they should do the same. “Follow your passion,” I suggested. “You can figure out the employment stuff later.”(近十年来，我对遇到的每个人都说他们也该这么做。“追随你的热情，”我建议道，“工作相关的事之后再想办法就行。”)”可知，作者在近十年的时间里建议人们用热情追求事业。故选A。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“It wasn’t until I began to research this widely accepted career advice that I understood how problematic it really was. As a sociologist, I interviewed college students and professional workers to learn what it really meant to pursue their dreams, which I will refer to here as the passion principle. I was stunned by what I found out about it.(直到我开始研究这条被广泛认可的职业建议，才明白它实际上存在诸多问题。作为社会学家，我采访了大学生和职场人士，想了解追逐梦想的真正含义——在此我将其称为“热情原则”。而我从中发现的真相，让我大为震惊。)”可知，作者对热情原则的后果感到惊讶。故选C。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据上文“Yet, what I found is that this path does not necessarily lead to fulfillment, (然而，我发现这条道路未必能让人获得满足感)”和下文“I also found that promoting the pursuit of one’s passion helps aggravate social inequalities.(我还发现，宣扬追逐热爱会进一步加剧社会不平等。)”可知，作者发现这条道路反而会成为加剧过度工作的最强大文化力量之一。由此可推测出“aggravate”的意思是“加剧”，与Intensify意思相近。故选A。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“They showed greater interest in passionate applicants in part because they believed the applicants would work hard at their jobs without expecting an increase in pay. They even sacrifice a good salary, job stability and leisure time to work in a job they love.(雇主们对有热情的求职者表现出更高的兴趣，部分原因是他们认为这些求职者会努力工作，却不会期待加薪。为了从事自己热爱的工作，这些求职者甚至会牺牲高薪、工作稳定性和闲暇时间。)”可知，热情的求职者会为了从事一份热爱的工作而牺牲高薪、工作稳定和休闲时间，而雇主对热情的求职者表现出更大的兴趣，所以作者认为热情员工的雇主利用了热情的员工。故选D。 D Polymetallic nodules (多金属结核) on the deep-ocean seafloor contain minerals like cobalt and nickel, which mining companies hope to harvest for green-energy batteries and technologies. However, a recent study suggests these prized, potato-sized rocks may also serve as a source of oxygen for the bacteria and other microorganisms (微生物) living there. Jeffrey Marlow, one of the authors of the study, said researchers planted some watertight structures on the ocean floor, which he described as overturned boxes equipped with instruments designed to measure the property of living things and their probable usage of oxygen. Researchers measured the oxygen loss over a 48-hour period while the structure was sealed on the seafloor. Typically, a decline in oxygen is an indicator for biological richness because breathing organisms consume it. Yet, contrary to all expectations, they observed a rise in oxygen levels, a finding that directly challenged conventional understanding. But not everyone is on the same wavelength as him. Canada’s The Metals Co.(TMC) stated the study had been rejected by four scientific publications until finding a home at Nature, which the company labeled as “a journal that has long championed the preservation of deep-sea minerals.” TMC also argued that the team’s findings contradicted other work that had been conducted in the Pacific Ocean’s Clarion-Clipperton Zone. “The heightened oxygen levels are in fact misleading in the data, and we are currently preparing a peer-reviewed paper as a fightback,” said the company. Bo Barker, a microbiologist at Denmark’s Aarhus University, said the study invited more questions than it did answers. He described it as a “novel but very confusing process for which the mechanism (机制) is still not clear.” For years, companies such as Canada’s TMC have been battling to persuade the international governing authority to green-light their plans to obtain these rocks in the Pacific Ocean’s CCZ. The company has argued that the metals are essential for fossil fuel-free technologies and that the impact mining will have on the ocean floor is not only minimal, but also fades next to the destruction of rain forests and human communities caused by land-based mining. 12. What did the study find out about Polymetallic nodules? A. They may help generate oxygen. B. They indicate oxygen consumption. C. They boost the growth of microorganisms. D. They measure the property of living things. 13. What is TMC’s attitude towards the journal Nature? A. Defensive B. Objective C. Approving D. Dismissive 14. What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph? A. Summarize the previous paragraphs. B. Introduce a new topic for discussion. C. Add some background information. D. Draw a conclusion on the argument. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. A Tiny Stone: a Big Wave B. A Novel Study: an Old Debate C. Nodules: Producing Oxygen in Seafloor D. TMC: Mining Nodules for Green Energy 【答案】12. A 13. D 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章围绕深海海底的多金属结核展开，阐述了其重要性、相关研究、争议以及开采背景。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Polymetallic nodules (多金属结核) on the deep-ocean seafloor contain minerals like cobalt and nickel, which mining companies hope to harvest for green-energy batteries and technologies. However, a recent study suggests these prized, potato-sized rocks may also serve as a source of oxygen for the bacteria and other microorganisms (微生物) living there.(深海海底的多金属结核含有钴和镍等矿物质，矿业公司希望开采这些矿物质，用于制造绿色能源电池和相关技术产品。然而，最近的一项研究表明，这些备受珍视、土豆大小的矿石也可能为生活在那里的细菌和其他微生物提供氧气来源)”可知，研究发现多金属结核可能有助于产生氧气。故选A。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Canada’s The Metals Co.(TMC) stated the study had been rejected by four scientific publications until finding a home at Nature, which the company labeled as “a journal that has long championed the preservation of deep-sea mineral.”(加拿大金属公司称，这项研究被四家科学刊物拒绝，最终才在《自然》杂志发表，该公司还将《自然》杂志称为 “一份长期倡导保护深海矿产的期刊”)”可知，TMC暗示《自然》杂志秉持保护深海矿产的立场，刊登这份深海采矿的研究，其态度是轻视、不屑的。故选D。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“For years, companies such as Canada’s TMC have been battling to persuade the international governing authority to green-light their plans to obtain these rocks in the Pacific Ocean’s CCZ. The company has argued that the metals are essential for fossil fuel-free technologies and that the impact mining will have on the ocean floor is not only minimal, but also fades next to the destruction of rain forests and human communities caused by land-based mining.(多年来，像加拿大TMC这样的公司一直在努力说服国际管理机构批准他们在太平洋克拉里昂-克利珀顿断裂带（CCZ）获取这些岩石的计划。该公司辩称，这些金属对于无化石燃料技术至关重要，而且采矿对海底的影响不仅微乎其微，而且与陆地采矿对雨林和人类社区造成的破坏相比，这种影响微不足道)”可推知，本段主要为了介绍多金属结核开采的背景信息，包括开采公司的努力和理由。故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据第一段“However, a recent study suggests these prized, potato-sized rocks may also serve as a source of oxygen for the bacteria and other microorganisms (微生物) living there.(然而，最近的一项研究表明，这些备受珍视、土豆大小的矿石也可能为生活在那里的细菌和其他微生物提供氧气来源)”可知，文章主要介绍了一项新研究发现深海海底的多金属结核可能产生氧气，引发了争议。由此可知，“A Tiny Stone: a Big Wave(小石子，大波澜)”最符合文章主旨。故选A。 第二节（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。 Professional organizer Breaks Down Her Unusual Job In 2014, Kayleen Kelly took her professional organizing business full-time.

Our mission — defined not merely by providing medical ____37____ (consult) but by a deeper purpose—demanded profound cultural sensitivity and a willingness to listen. One particularly afternoon, ____38____ (distribute) mosquito nets and vital medical supplies, we negotiated a winding path toward a community where ____39____ disabled and elderly received minimal care. When we finally arrived, what greeted us was a world so different from ____40____ (we). The sight of the main street, ____41____ (jam) with vibrant market stalls and filled with the murmur of chatting locals, struck me with unexpected force. It was this direct immersion into their daily existence — a privilege I had never anticipated — ____42____ made me profoundly wish the wider world could understand the quiet dignity of their struggle. Our team leader then insisted that a comprehensive and empathetic report ____43____ (write) to capture these subtle, vital details. He argued, and rightly so, that ____44____ a document that conveyed not just statistics but human stories, our efforts would have been incomplete. Reflecting on the entire experience, I often think: ____45____ it not been for our persistent on-the-ground efforts, the local health situation would not have improved so markedly and this hard-won bond of trust, so delicate in its early stages, might never have taken root and grown as it did. 【答案】36. had contracted 37. consultation 38. to distribute 39. the 40. ours 41. jammed 42. that 43. should be written##be written 44. without 45. Had 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者在一个偏远村庄的医疗援助经历，强调了文化敏感性和倾听的重要性，以及这段经历对作者世界观的深远影响。 【36题详解】 考查时态。句意：我在一个偏远村庄的时光给我的世界观留下了持久的印记，官方数据显示，在我们到达时，该村很大一部分人口已经感染了疟疾。根据时间状语by the time we arrived可知，contract“感染”发生在arrived之前，表示“过去的过去”，时态用过去完成时，从句谓语用had contracted。故填had contracted。 【37题详解】 考查名词。句意：我们的使命——不仅仅定义为提供医疗咨询，而是有更深的目的——需要深刻的文化敏感性和倾听的意愿。本空作动词provide的宾语，用名词consultation“咨询”。故填consultation。 【38题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：一个特别的下午，为了分发蚊帐和重要医疗用品，我们沿着一条蜿蜒的小路前往一个残疾人和老年人得到最低限度照顾的社区。本句已有谓语negotiated，动词distribute“分发”用非谓语形式，表示目的，用不定式形式，作目的状语。故填to distribute。 【39题详解】 考查冠词。句意同上。“定冠词the+形容词”表示一类人，the disabled and elderly“残疾人和老年人”。故填the。 【40题详解】 考查代词。句意：当我们最终到达时，迎接我们的是一个与我们截然不同的世界。本空作from的宾语，用名词性物主代词ours，指代“our world”。故填ours。 【41题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：看到主街上挤满了热闹的市场摊位，充满了当地人聊天的低语声，我感到出乎意料的震撼。本句谓语为struck，此处为非谓语动词，主 the main street与jam“挤满”之间为被动关系，用过去分词，作后置定语。故填jammed。 【42题详解】 考查强调句。句意：正是这种直接融入他们日常生活的经历——一种我从未预料到的特权——让我深切地希望更广阔的世界能够理解他们斗争中那份安静的尊严。因此本句是强调句，强调句型为：It is/was+被强调部分+that+句子其他部分，此处强调主语this direct immersion into their daily existence-a privilege I had never anticipated，用that。故填that。 【43题详解】 考查虚拟语气。句意：我们的团队负责人坚持要写一份全面而富有同情心的报告，以捕捉这些微妙而重要的细节。insist表示“坚持要求”，后接宾语从句时，从句用虚拟语气，谓语用“should+动词原形”，should可以省略，从句主语report与write是被动关系，用被动语态(should) be written。故填(should) be written。 【44题详解】 考查介词。句意：他争辩说，如果没有一份不仅传达统计数据，还传达人类故事的文件，我们的努力将是不完整的。表示“没有”用介词without。故填without。 【45题详解】 考查虚拟语气。句意：回顾整个经历，我常常想：如果不是我们坚持不懈的实地努力，当地的健康状况不会如此显著改善，这种来之不易的信任纽带，在初期如此脆弱，可能永远不会像现在这样生根发芽。此处为虚拟语气的倒装结构，相当于If it had not been for...，省略if后，将had提前。故填Had。 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节 书面表达（满分15分） 46. 假定你是校学生会主席李华，你校将举办一场以“科技与未来生活”为主题的创新论坛。请你给人工智能专家Dr. Brown写一封邮件，邀请他做主旨发言，内容包括： 1. 论坛主题及目的； 2. 邀请原因； 3. 相关安排。 注意：（1）写作词数应为80个左右；（2）请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。 ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Dear Dr. Brown, I’m Li Hua, the president of the Student Union.

She had been sick with the flu during the week when everyone else got to pick their classes. She had hoped for Astronomy or Marine Biology, but they were full by the time she got to choose. She loved everything about science, from the way it used facts and formulas to how it revealed the basic nature of things. But art was so un-scientific. The first class project was self-portraits. Some students were drawing self-portraits using mirrors. Others were working from photographs. Alia glanced at the incomplete sketches, feeling like a cat in a dog show. But she had no choice. Hesitantly, she lifted a pencil, only to pause before the canvas. Confusion and reluctance were evidently written on her face; she had no idea how to proceed with her strokes. The teacher came up to Alia’s easel (画架). Seemingly having noticed her trouble, he sat next to her. “Every portrait begins with a circle,” he said. “Then you create a series of lines.” To demonstrate, he drew a group of small, quick portraits. He began each one with a circle, some straight lines, and a triangle to determine where the eyes, nose, and chin should go. To Alia’s amazement, each portrait on the paper took form. Alia had never thought about it, but the features of everyone’s face were in the same spots. “Go ahead and give it a try.” The teacher handed the pencil back to her. Taking a deep breath, Alia began her own self-portrait. She drew the basic form of a head, the way she had been shown. From there, she used lines to plot the features of her face. She had to take note of each detail, with each stroke, line and curve demanding her close attention. One wrong measurement could throw off the whole portrait. 注意： 1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The process took patience and precision. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Admiring her work, Alia suddenly realized drawing was just what she had hoped for. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文： Para1: The process took patience and precision. It was much like the scientific experiments Alia adored. She closely observed the proportions of her face, the way a scientist might study a complex formula. Each feature demanded her undivided focus, as she carefully translated the three-dimensional reality onto the two-dimensional plane. The rhythm of her drawing mirrored the methodical steps of a scientific procedure. Slowly, the initial resistance and confusion gave way to a meditative absorption in the task at hand. As herself-portrait emerged from a series of geometric guidelines, Alia discovered a sense of achievement in the deliberate and thoughtful application of pencil to paper. Para 2: Admiring her work, Alia found that drawing was surprisingly what she had hoped for. The self-portrait before her was not just a collection of lines and shapes but a deep exploration of her own face, a meticulous examination of her own features. She realized that art and science were not so distinct; both required a keen eye, a steady hand, and an open mind. Her initial skepticism had been transformed into a quiet appreciation for the unexpected joy found in the strokes of her pencil. Suddenly it occurred to her: Don’t assume you won’t like something until you try it. This newfound appreciation for art would forever intertwine with her love for science, shaping her journey of self-discovery and enabling her to perceive the world through a richer, more vibrant lens. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Alia由于流感没有选上她原本希望的天文学或海洋生物学课程，发现自己被安排在绘画工作室。她对艺术感到陌生和困惑，觉得它与科学完全不同。然而，当她开始学习绘画并接受老师的指导时，她开始感受到绘画的乐趣和挑战，发现了绘画的美妙之处。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“这个过程需要耐心和精确。”可知，第一段可描写Alia像做自己喜欢的科学实验和研究复杂的公式一样，仔细观察自己脸部的比例，全神贯注于绘画步骤，画出自己的自画像，Alia从中发现了一种成就感。 ②由第二段首句内容“Alia欣赏自己的作品，发现绘画出人意料地成为了她所希望的。”可知，第二段可描写Alia对自己作品的欣赏和对绘画的新认识，她意识到绘画不仅是一种艺术形式，更是一种表达自己想法和感受的方式，这与科学所追求的客观性和逻辑性相辅相成。 2. 续写线索：观察比例——专注于绘画——画出自画像——欣赏作品获得新认识——意识到科学与艺术的共同之处——体会与感悟 3. 词汇激活： 行为类： ①热爱：adore/be enthusiastic about ②意识到：realize/be aware 情绪类： ①怀疑：skepticism/doubt ②高兴：joy/delight 【点睛】【高分句型1】As herself-portrait emerged from a series of geometric guidelines, Alia discovered a sense of achievement in the deliberate and thoughtful application of pencil to paper.(运用了as引导的状语从句) 【高分句型2】Admiring her work, Alia found that drawing was surprisingly what she had hoped for.

Rising temperatures might boost crop production in cold regions but negatively impact production in warmer areas. Wheat and rice—which benefit from more CO2 in the atmosphere—could see growing output, while corn and sorghum(高粱) could see a decline with warmer temperatures. Farmers can adjust their practices to a warmer climate in four key ways: A recent study by experts modeled three adaptation methods—changing WHAT, changing WHEN and changing both of them. The chart below shows their impact on the output of corn, rice, sorghum, soybean (大豆) and wheat. These three adaptation methods can already go some way to relieve climate pressures in some countries. But, of course, we don’t only care about crop production at the global level. If farmers in particular regions — especially those that are most food-insecure — cannot adapt to climate change, this is still a major problem. So there is more we can do in the future. 1. What aspect of farming should farmers change if their budget is limited? A. WHAT. B. WHERE. C. HOW. D. WHEN. 2. Which crop benefits most when planted as an alternative? A. Soybean. B. Rice. C. Sorghum. D. Wheat. 3. What can be done in the future? A. Help farmers in need. B. Adopt the three methods. C. Move to colder regions. D. Improve food production. B On a warm afternoon in Queensland, Australia, 17-month-old Charlotte was toddling (蹒跚学步) in the sunlit yard, trying to catch a butterfly joyfully. Nearby, Khan, the Svilicic family’s newly adopted Doberman, watched her closely. The 90-pound creature had suffered months of abuse from his previous owner before his rescue. Yet, over four short days, he’d begun to relax — tail wagging madly when Charlotte offered him her snacks. Suddenly, Khan became fierce, his muscles tensing and a low roar coming out of his throat. Catherine Svilicic, Charlotte’s mother, looked up from her gardening, uneasy. Before she could react, Khan jumped at Charlotte, knocking her sideways with his shoulder. “No, Khan!” Catherine screamed, dropping her tools. But the Doberman didn’t stop. He grabbed Charlotte by the diaper (尿片), throwing her several feet across the yard. Horror gave way to clarity as Catherine spotted the threat — a poisonous brown snake was heading right for the little girl. Khan’s “attack” had been a desperate rescue: this brave dog got Charlotte out of the way just in time and instead, he was bitten by the snake moments later. At the clinic, Khan received anti-venom just in time. The vet (兽医) warned that without his quick actions, the bite would have been deadly for Charlotte. “He took the hit for her,” Catherine whispered, tears streaming as she gently touched Khan’s bandaged (缠绷带的) paw. The family had doubted adopting a Doberman with a painful past, but Khan’s courage erased every worry. “He’s family now,” Catherine told reporters later. “We’ll spend years making sure he knows how loved he is.” Khan’s recovery was slow but successful. He and Charlotte became inseparable — she’d sleep against his side, tiny hand resting on his scarred body. The Svilicics fixed a snake-proof fence but knew no barrier could match the loyalty of their four-legged guardian. 4. Why did Khan jump at Charlotte? A. He mistook her for a threat. B. He attempted to defend her. C. He disliked the snacks she offered. D. He suffered constant abuse from her. 5. Which of the following best describes Khan based on the story? A. Joyful and relaxed. B. Painful and guarded. C. Sharp and protective. D. Loyal and independent. 6. How did the family’s attitude towards Khan change in the story? A. From trust to caution. B. From doubt to sympathy. C. From dislike to admiration. D. From uncertainty to devotion. 7. What can be inferred about the family’s future actions? A. They will fix a barrier to stop snakes. B. They will avoid gardening in the yard. C. They will prioritize Khan’s well-being. D. They will train Khan to hunt for snakes. C After earning a bachelor’s degree, I was determined to do what I love, so I headed straight to graduate school to investigate social problems. For almost a decade, I told everyone I encountered that they should do the same. “Follow your passion,” I suggested. “You can figure out the employment stuff later.” It wasn’t until I began to research this widely accepted career advice that I understood how problematic it really was. As a sociologist, I interviewed college students and professional workers to learn what it really meant to pursue their dreams, which I will refer to here as the passion principle. I was stunned by what I found out about it. Surveys show the American public has long held the passion principle as a career decision-making priority. And its popularity is even stronger among those facing job instability. Advocates believe following one’s passion can provide workers with both the motivation necessary to work hard and a place to find fulfillment. Yet, what I found is that this path does not necessarily lead to fulfillment, but is one of the most powerful cultural forces that aggravate overwork. I also found that promoting the pursuit of one’s passion helps aggravate social inequalities. While the passion principle is broadly popular, not everyone has the necessary resources to turn their passion into a stable, good-paying job. Passion-seekers from wealthy families are better able to wait until a job they are passionate about comes along without worrying about student loans. And they often have access to parents’ social networks to help them find jobs. Surveys revealed that working-class and first-generation college graduates, regardless of their career field, are more likely than their wealthier peers to end up in low-paying unskilled jobs when they pursue their passion. It’s not just well-off passion-seekers who benefit from the passion principle. Employers of passionate workers do, too. They showed greater interest in passionate applicants in part because they believed the applicants would work hard at their jobs without expecting an increase in pay. They even sacrifice a good salary, job stability and leisure time to work in a job they love. 8. What did the author advise people do for almost a decade? A. Pursue their careers with passion. B. Do whatever that fascinates them. C. Follow widely accepted career advice. D. Study social problems in graduate school. 9. How did the author feel about the passion principle through his research? A. He was right to have followed it. B. He was struck by its broad popularity. C. He was astonished by its consequences. D. He was further convinced of its soundness. 10. What does the underlined word “aggravate” in Paragraph 4 most probably mean? A. Intensify. B. Prevent. C. Address. D. Deserve. 11. What does the author say about employers of passionate workers? A. They sacrifice stability to work in their job. B. They help passion-seekers become well-off. C. They let their workers benefit from the principle. D. They take advantage of the passionate workers. D Polymetallic nodules (多金属结核) on the deep-ocean seafloor contain minerals like cobalt and nickel, which mining companies hope to harvest for green-energy batteries and technologies. However, a recent study suggests these prized, potato-sized rocks may also serve as a source of oxygen for the bacteria and other microorganisms (微生物) living there. Jeffrey Marlow, one of the authors of the study, said researchers planted some watertight structures on the ocean floor, which he described as overturned boxes equipped with instruments designed to measure the property of living things and their probable usage of oxygen. Researchers measured the oxygen loss over a 48-hour period while the structure was sealed on the seafloor. Typically, a decline in oxygen is an indicator for biological richness because breathing organisms consume it. Yet, contrary to all expectations, they observed a rise in oxygen levels, a finding that directly challenged conventional understanding. But not everyone is on the same wavelength as him. Canada’s The Metals Co.(TMC) stated the study had been rejected by four scientific publications until finding a home at Nature, which the company labeled as “a journal that has long championed the preservation of deep-sea minerals.” TMC also argued that the team’s findings contradicted other work that had been conducted in the Pacific Ocean’s Clarion-Clipperton Zone. “The heightened oxygen levels are in fact misleading in the data, and we are currently preparing a peer-reviewed paper as a fightback,” said the company. Bo Barker, a microbiologist at Denmark’s Aarhus University, said the study invited more questions than it did answers. He described it as a “novel but very confusing process for which the mechanism (机制) is still not clear.” For years, companies such as Canada’s TMC have been battling to persuade the international governing authority to green-light their plans to obtain these rocks in the Pacific Ocean’s CCZ. The company has argued that the metals are essential for fossil fuel-free technologies and that the impact mining will have on the ocean floor is not only minimal, but also fades next to the destruction of rain forests and human communities caused by land-based mining. 12. What did the study find out about Polymetallic nodules? A. They may help generate oxygen. B. They indicate oxygen consumption. C. They boost the growth of microorganisms. D. They measure the property of living things. 13. What is TMC’s attitude towards the journal Nature? A. Defensive B. Objective C. Approving D. Dismissive 14. What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph? A. Summarize the previous paragraphs. B. Introduce a new topic for discussion. C. Add some background information. D. Draw a conclusion on the argument. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. A Tiny Stone: a Big Wave B. A Novel Study: an Old Debate C. Nodules: Producing Oxygen in Seafloor D.

She had been sick with the flu during the week when everyone else got to pick their classes. She had hoped for Astronomy or Marine Biology, but they were full by the time she got to choose. She loved everything about science, from the way it used facts and formulas to how it revealed the basic nature of things. But art was so un-scientific. The first class project was self-portraits. Some students were drawing self-portraits using mirrors. Others were working from photographs. Alia glanced at the incomplete sketches, feeling like a cat in a dog show. But she had no choice. Hesitantly, she lifted a pencil, only to pause before the canvas. Confusion and reluctance were evidently written on her face; she had no idea how to proceed with her strokes. The teacher came up to Alia’s easel (画架). Seemingly having noticed her trouble, he sat next to her. “Every portrait begins with a circle,” he said. “Then you create a series of lines.” To demonstrate, he drew a group of small, quick portraits. He began each one with a circle, some straight lines, and a triangle to determine where the eyes, nose, and chin should go. To Alia’s amazement, each portrait on the paper took form. Alia had never thought about it, but the features of everyone’s face were in the same spots. “Go ahead and give it a try.” The teacher handed the pencil back to her. Taking a deep breath, Alia began her own self-portrait. She drew the basic form of a head, the way she had been shown. From there, she used lines to plot the features of her face. She had to take note of each detail, with each stroke, line and curve demanding her close attention. One wrong measurement could throw off the whole portrait. 注意： 1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The process took patience and precision. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Admiring her work, Alia suddenly realized drawing was just what she had hoped for. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
