Ⅲ.语篇词汇串记
It's said that dinosaurs died out because of a natural disaster.But now,many species are endangered or even extinct just because humans do varied harm to them.For instance,tigers are being illegally hunted in an incredibly cruel way for their fur while rhinos,for their horns.Besides,we have destroyed their habitats by cutting down trees,throwing away unrecyclable plastic rubbish everywhere and discharging polluted water that contains poisonous chemicals into rivers.
It is human activities that are to blame for the mass extinction.However,we should be aware of the fact that without the species on which we depend for our survival,we would be also at risk.Many anxious environmentalists write informative and innovative essays to educate people to adopt a green lifestyle.Conservation measures involve switching to solar energy,stopping using throwaway cartons or chopsticks that can't be recycled,and taking public transportation on a regular basis to and from work.To sum up,everybody has a role to play in protecting our planet and if we all set out to do our part,the harmonious world will be restored.
[遮住左栏,忆加黑词汇]
据说恐龙是由于自然灾害而灭绝的。但是现在,许多物种濒危,甚至灭绝,只是因为人类对它们造成了各种各样的伤害。例如,老虎正在以一种令人难以置信的残酷方式被非法猎杀,为了(得到)它们的皮毛,而犀牛则是为了它们的角。此外,我们砍伐树木,到处扔不可回收的塑料垃圾,把含有有毒化学物质的污水排放到河流中,破坏了它们的栖息地。
人类活动是造成物种大量灭绝的罪魁祸首。然而,我们应该意识到这样一个事实:没有我们赖以生存的物种,我们也将处于危险之中。许多忧心忡忡的环保主义者写了知识性强、创新性的文章来教育人们采用绿色生活方式。节约措施包括改用太阳能,停止使用不能回收的一次性纸箱或筷子,定期乘坐公共交通工具上下班。总而言之,每个人都有责任保护我们的地球,如果我们都开始尽自己的一份力,和谐的世界将会恢复如初。

(2025·惠州市高三第二次调研考试)On a windy day, 40 middleschool students stand by the Harlem River in New York City.Their teacher, Mr.White, pulls a metal cage out of the river.Inside are clusters of oysters(牡蛎).The last time they were here, the oysters were babies.
The students' job is to measure how much the oysters have grown and test the river water for pollutants.They will report their findings to researchers at the Billion Oyster Project (BOP).Why work so hard? To make the city's waterways healthy again.
Oysters are important for the underwater community they share with plants, fish, and other life.So they are also called a keystone species.If a keystone species disappears, other plants and animals may die out.That's exactly what happened 100 years ago in New York Harbor.Before then, lots of oysters lived here.The oysters were delicious—maybe too delicious.By the early 1900s, people were eating them faster than they could grow.
The oysters were in trouble for another reason.Pollution was pouring into the waters of the growing city, and few types of animals could live in it.Since the 1970s,new laws have helped reduce toxic(有毒的)waste.Some fish started to swim through again.But oysters were still missing—until recently.The BOP began in 2014 to help bring oysters back to New York Harbor.So far, students and volunteers have placed about 25, 000, 000 oysters into the harbor.
“The oysters definitely look much bigger now,”says a student named Kelly.Taking turns, the kids measure all the oysters, then compare notes.The biggest oyster is over 2 inches long, much bigger than a healthy size for its age.
As more oysters grow, the water should become clearer.Also, other animals should move in.Finally, the students put the oysters back in the cage.Mr.White lowers it into the river.When the oysters are big enough, they will be moved to the middle of the harbor.For today, everyone agrees: the future is looking bright for New York Harbor.
[语篇解读]本文是新闻报道。文章介绍了牡蛎是关键水下生物,2014年启动的“BOP(十亿牡蛎计划)”将牡蛎带回纽约港,帮助恢复纽约港的生态健康。
4.Why are oysters called a keystone species?
A.They grow quickly.
B.They are delicious.
C.They support underwater life.
D.They are able to resist pollution.
C [细节理解题。根据第三段的“Oysters are important for the underwater community they share with plants, fish, and other life”(牡蛎对它们与植物、鱼类和其他生物共享的水下世界很重要)和“If a keystone species disappears, other plants and animals may die out”(如果一个关键物种消失,其他动植物可能会灭绝)可知,牡蛎维持水下生物的生存,因此被称为关键物种。故选C。]
5.What was the problem with oysters over a century ago?
A.A period of disappearance.
B.Overconsumption by people.
C.Lack of clean and safe habitat.
D.Competition with other species.
B [细节理解题。根据第三段的“The oysters were delicious—maybe too delicious.By the early 1900s, people were eating them faster than they could grow”可知,牡蛎过于美味,到20世纪初,人们吃它们的速度超过了它们的生长速度,即牡蛎被人们过度消耗,故选B。]
6.What's the goal of the Billion Oyster Project?
A.To grow more oysters.
B.To collect useful data.
C.To protect water plants.
D.To restore waterways.
D [推理判断题。根据第二段最后的“To make the city's waterways healthy again”、第四段的“The BOP began in 2014 to help bring oysters back to New York Harbor”和第六段的“As more oysters grow, the water should become clearer”可知,BOP帮助将牡蛎带回纽约港,牡蛎越多,水就越干净,城市的航道就会恢复健康,所以BOP的目标是恢复航道,故选D。]
7.What may be the future outlook for New York Harbor?
A.Promising. B.Uncertain.
C.Disappointing. D.Unchanged.
A [细节理解题。根据第六段最后一句“For today, everyone agrees: the future is looking bright for New York Harbor”可知,纽约港的未来是光明的,A项promising“大有希望的”与文中“look bright”属同义复现。]
C
(2025·广东六校二联)Researchers at the University of Exeter in England have crafted a device that employs artificial intelligence (AI) to detect Asian wasps(黄蜂).AI refers to the capability of computers to learn from experiences and execute tasks swiftly that would typically require a significant time investment from humans.
Asian wasps are considered an invasive species, indicating that they are not native to the UK and can disrupt our ecosystem—the environment and its living organisms.These wasps feed on local insects and pose a significant threat to honeybees with a single wasp capable of killing up to 50 honeybees in a day.
The innovative system, named VespAI, uses a sponge cloth soaked with a liquid that attracts wasps.Once the wasps are drawn in, an automatic camera takes pictures of them.The AI then analyzes the photos to determine whether the insect is an Asian wasp or a European wasp, which is a native species.
If an Asian wasp is spotted, a notification is sent right away to the researcher's phone or computer.VespAI acts as an earlywarning system, allowing for the detection of any Asian wasps that may have entered a new area of the UK.Its high precision helps authorities respond quickly to follow the wasps, find their nests, and get rid of them before they can reproduce.
There is growing concern among experts that Asian wasps may have made a lasting home in the UK rather than being merely transient or accidental arrivals.Currently, the UK's way of dealing with Asian wasps depends on people seeing them, recognizing them, and reporting them.However, many of these reports turn out to be other kinds of insects.
Dr.Thomas O'SheaWheller, who worked on VespAI, said this new system won't mistake other insects for Asian wasps or miss them when they come around.VespAI has been tested on the island of Jersey and will be tried in other places this year.
[语篇解读]本文是说明文。研究人员发明了一款利用人工智能检测亚洲黄蜂的新设备VespAI,该设备可以快速而精准地检测到入侵物种亚洲黄蜂,从而保护当地的生态系统。
8.What does Paragraph 3 mainly focus on?
A.VespAI's design and operation.
B.The effectiveness of wasp traps.
C.VespAI's influence on the ecosystem.
D.Traditional wasp detecting methods.
A [段落大意题。第三段讲VespAI使用被浸泡了吸引黄蜂液体的海绵布。一旦黄蜂被吸引来,一台自动相机就会给它们拍照。然后,人工智能分析照片,确定昆虫是亚洲黄蜂还是本土物种欧洲黄蜂。由此可知,本段主要介绍了VespAI 的设计和操作。]
9.What does the underlined word “transient”mean in Paragraph 5?
A.Widespread. B.Temporary.
C.Frequent. D.Dangerous.
B [词义猜测题。根据画线词前的“rather than”可知,画线词与上文的 lasting“持久的”意思相反;再结合画线词后的“or accidental”可知,画线词与accidental“偶然的”的意思相近。故画线词的含义应与B项“短暂的”意思最为接近。]
10.Which statement would Dr.Thomas probably agree with?
A.VespAI will help manage wasp invasions.
B.VespAI requires constant human inspection.
C.The current reporting system is highly effective.
D.The current methods fail to identify Asian wasps.
A [推理判断题。根据题干中的Dr.Thomas将答案定位在最后一段。Dr.Thomas说VespAI不会把其他昆虫误认为是亚洲黄蜂,也不会在它们来的时候错过它们。由此可知,Dr.Thomas 认为VespAI可以有效帮助检测入侵物种亚洲黄蜂,从而抵御其入侵。故选A。B项“VespAI需要持续的人工检查”;C项“目前的报告制度非常有效”;D项“目前的方法无法识别亚洲黄蜂”。]
11.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.AI Disrupts the Survival of Insects
B.The Threat of Asian Wasps to Bees
C.AI Technology Boosts Wasp Detection
D.The Impact of AI on Insect Identification
C [标题归纳题。通读全文,尤其是第一段第一句话“Researchers...have crafted a device that employs artificial intelligence (AI) to detect Asian wasps(黄蜂)”可知,本文主要介绍了研究人员发明了一款利用人工智能检测入侵物种亚洲黄蜂的新设备VespAI,故C项“人工智能技术提高黄蜂检测能力”最适合作本文标题。A项“人工智能扰乱昆虫的生存”;B项“亚洲黄蜂对蜜蜂的威胁”;D项“人工智能对昆虫识别的影响”。]

Why are Police Officers Called Cops?
Police officers are often referred to as cops.1( ) Some argue the term is shortened from “copper”and comes from copper badges (徽章) worn by a policeman.Others say that it stands for “Constabulary of Police”.
General agreement on the word origins of “cop”,however, suggests that the term is based more on the policeman's job than on his clothing or job title.In Latin, the verb capere can be defined as “to capture”.In French, the verb is caper.“To cop”in English is to seize or to take.2( )
Some also believe that the Dutch word kapen,which also loosely translates as “to steal or take”, is related to policemen being called coppers or cops.Essentially, the police force was there to take criminals off the streets.3( ) And since American English especially draws from German, French, and Latin, the specific language origins of kapen or capere create a ready path to the term “cop”.
4( ) And it is no longer considered rude.However, certain other terms for police officers are definitely unwelcome.While British Police might not mind being called “bobbies”, no police members like to be referred to as “pigs”or the “fuzz”.Some don't mind the term the “heat”as applied to the whole police force,but the police force does not generally take kindly to terms given to them by criminals.
The term “cop”is in such common usage now that a show documenting their work on the job is called Cops.Even though J.Edgar Hoover once highly objected to the term, it is now fine to refer to a policeman or a police woman as a cop.5( )
A.The term is slightly less familiar to people.
B.So,the Latin, Dutch, and French terms are all similar.
C.These words define some of what a police officer does.
D.The profession of a police officer was not respected then.
E.But the origins of this nickname are something of a debate.
F.However, the term “police officer”is generally most correct.
G.Today it is appropriate to call members of the police force cops.
[语篇解读]本文是说明文。主要介绍了对警察的称呼的演变。
1.E [上文谈到警察经常被称为cops,即cops是police officers的另一种称呼,故E项中的this nickname与cops相呼应。下文谈到不同的人对这一单词的来源和含义的不同看法,与E项中的“something of a debate”相呼应。故E项“但这个绰号的起源存在争论”承上启下,引出“cop的词源”这一话题。]
2.C [空处所在段的第一句为段落主旨句,指出人们普遍相信cop一词是基于警察的工作而非衣着或头衔。空前列举了拉丁语、法语和英语中相应单词的含义。设空应是对上文单词的总结,并呼应第一句段落主旨句。故C项“这些单词解释了警察的一些工作”符合语境。]
3.B [上文提到一些人认为荷兰语单词kapen也与警察的绰号有关,本质上,警察部队是为了逮捕罪犯。这与第二段谈到的拉丁语和法语中的单词是相似的,故B项承接上文,符合语境。]
4.G [根据空后句子“And it is no longer considered rude”可知,空处与现在人们对警察的称呼有关,故G项“今天把警察部队的成员称为cops是合适的”符合语境。appropriate与rude是相反的概念。]
5.F [上文谈到对警察的各种称呼,有的是被认可的,有的则不被接受,故此处F项“然而,‘police officer’一词通常是最恰当的”作为总结句符合语境。]

Ⅰ.阅读理解(共4小题,每小题2.5分,共10分)
(2025·南充市高考适应性考试)While there are several easy ways to help protect yourself against mosquitoborne diseases, there's another solution that sounds appealing: What if we could just make all the mosquitoes disappear?
Plenty of research has revealed food webs of bigger mammals, such as lions or leopards.And for good reason—they're much easier to observe than tiny mosquitoes, which often breed in pools of water.Mosquitoes of all ages and sexes serve as a food source for all kinds of creatures, such as fish, turtles, migratory songbirds, and bats.Moreover, males in many mosquito species eat only nectar(花蜜),making some species major pollinators(传粉者)of plants such as some crops and flowers.
Perhaps more than any other animal, bats are often regarded as being the mosquito's greatest threat.Surely removing all the mosquitoes would affect bats more than most? Not so, says Winifred Frick, a bat biologist at the University of California, Santa Cruz.Most bats actually eat whatever they can catch—mosquitoes, beetles, or otherwise.“There aren't any bat species that specialize specifically on mosquitoes,”says Frick.In fact, some mosquito species are most active during the day, meaning bats would have very few opportunities to feed on them at all.
The disappearance of mosquitoes would have massive consequences for global health, however.In all, mosquitoes account for more than 700,000 human deaths each year.Mosquitoes are the primary cause for malaria (疟疾).But we might not need to wipe out mosquitoes to turn around the situation.In recent years, researchers have made promising breakthroughs in preventing disease spreading by infecting mosquitoes with parasitic (寄生的) bacteria, which can make mosquitoes less harmful to other creatures.
And it's important to remember that not all mosquito species are responsible for the destructive diseases.In fact, many want nothing to do with us.“There are some species that live in wetlands that will feed mainly on frogs and other amphibians,”says Michael Hutchinson, a professor in insect research.There are also mosquito species in which the females are also not known to be bloodsuckers.In fact, some actually hunt other mosquitoes during their early stage.
[语篇解读]本文是议论文。文章探讨了蚊子在生态系统中的作用以及完全消灭蚊子可能带来的后果。
1.What's the function of the question in the first paragraph?
A.To raise doubts about the new appealing way.
B.To arouse further thinking and introduce the topic.
C.To encourage readers to give specific answers.
D.To inform readers of mosquitoes' disappearance.
B [写作意图题。文章第一段是说,虽然有几种简单的方法可以帮助你保护自己免受蚊媒传播疾病的侵害,但另一个听起来很吸引人的解决方案是:如果我们确实能让所有的蚊子消失会怎样?接下来的段落讨论了蚊子在生态系统中的重要性和消灭蚊子可能会带来的影响。因此,第一段的问题是一个引子,用来吸引读者的注意力,引发读者深入思考,引出文章接下来的讨论。故选B。]
2.What statement may Frick agree with?
A.Bats take mosquitoes as the greatest threat when hunting.
B.Bats need to seek new habitats when mosquitoes are gone.
C.Bats may not be severely impacted without mosquitoes.
D.Bats will face extinction owing to the lack of mosquitoes.
C [推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Surely removing all the mosquitoes would affect bats more than most? Not so, says Winifred Frick”以及“‘There aren't any bat species that specialize specifically on mosquitoes,’ says Frick”可知,Frick认为消除所有的蚊子对蝙蝠的影响并不会比对其他大多数动物的影响更大,实际上没有任何一种蝙蝠种类是以蚊子为主食的。因此可以推断,Frick可能会同意的说法是“没有蚊子,蝙蝠可能不会受到严重影响”。故选C项。A项“蝙蝠在捕猎时将蚊子视为最大的威胁”;B项“蚊子消失后,蝙蝠需要寻找新的栖息地”;D项“由于没有蚊子,蝙蝠将面临灭绝”。]
3.What does the underlined phrase “turn around”mean in Paragraph 4?
A.Develop rapidly.
B.Maintain properly.
C.Reduce greatly.
D.Improve gradually.
D [词句猜测题。根据第四段中的“mosquitoes account for more than 700, 000 human deaths...primary cause for malaria”可知,蚊子每年都会造成70万人死亡,并且是导致疟疾的主要原因。画线短语所在句与上文构成转折关系。所以这里是说,我们可能不需要消灭蚊子就能“扭转”局面。下文也提到了预防疾病传播的一些措施。故选D项。A项“快速发展”;B项“适当维持”;C项“大幅减少”;D项“逐渐改善”。]
4.What can be done to prevent mosquitoes spreading diseases according to the passage?
A.Infecting other creatures with parasitic bacteriA.
B.Hunting mosquitoes which feed mostly on frogs.
C.Applying bacteria to mosquitoes to reduce harm.
D.Killing all mosquitoes responsible for the diseases.
C [细节理解题。根据第四段中的“researchers...by infecting mosquitoes with parasitic(寄生的)bacteria,which can make mosquitoes less harmful to other creatures”可知,研究人员在预防疾病传播方面取得了重大突破,他们通过让蚊子感染寄生细菌来降低蚊子对其他生物的危害。故选C项。]

[语篇解读]本文是说明文。本文主要介绍了中国遥感专家刘少创运用遥感技术,跨界拯救濒危野生骆驼的故事。
1.left [考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,宾语从句为there be句型,are是谓语动词,空处在句中作非谓语,与其逻辑主语“1,000 wild camels”之间是动宾关系,故用过去分词作后置定语,填left。]
2.making [考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,本句的谓语是are distributed,空处在句中作非谓语。结合句意可知,此处表示自然而然的结果,应用现在分词,故填making。句意:野生骆驼分布在广阔的土地上,这使得准确地跟踪或监测它们是不可能的。]
3.a [考查冠词。“ remote sensing specialist”作“Liu Shaochuang”的同位语,specialist“专家”为可数名词,此处表示泛指,且remote的发音以辅音音素开头,故填a。]
4.to fit [考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,空处作非谓语。此处表示目的,应用动词不定式作表语,故填to fit。]
5.which [考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,空处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是表示物的名词短语tracking collars,从句缺少主语,故填which。句意:第一步是给骆驼安装与卫星相连的跟踪项圈,这些项圈可以用来确定它们每天的位置。]
6.are identified [考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。分析句子结构可知,空处作Once引导的条件状语从句的谓语。结合上下文可知,此处描述客观事实,应用一般现在时;主语“the camels' key habitats”是复数,和identify之间是被动关系。故填are identified。句意:一旦确定了骆驼的主要栖息地,刘少创的团队就会用遥感技术研究环境。]
7.and [考查连词。分析句子结构并结合句意可知,“the camels' movements”“the ecological impact of climate change”和空后的“other potential threats”是并列关系,同作介词regarding的宾语,故填and。]
8.innovative [考查形容词。空处修饰空后的名词approach,应用形容词,故填innovative。]
9.regularly [考查副词。空处修饰空后的谓语动词returns,应用副词,故填 regularly。]
