Now at the heart of Europe’s birdwatching scene, many hotels offer equipment like binoculars (双筒望远镜) and organize nature walks. What was once a special travel interest is now a popular experience for all guests. From watching red-crowned cranes (丹顶鹤) in Hokkaido to observing Brighton’s famous starling murmuration (椋鸟群飞舞), here are some of the best birdwatching experiences to try. Hokkaido, Japan Eastern Hokkaido offers one of winter’s most amazing birdwatching experiences, with two remarkable species: red-crowned cranes performing dances against snowy landscapes, and sea eagles diving for fish. After a day outdoors, guests can enjoy traditional hot spring baths. Yorkshire Dales, England Broughton Sanctuary has transformed over 740 acres of land that was once used for raising animals into a healthy ecosystem. The rewilding project has recently created wetland habitats that attract even more birdlife. In-between birdwatching, try the wild swimming in a natural pond. Yala National Park, Sri Lanka One of the best places to see the island’s most diverse wildlife is Wild Coast Tented Lodge. The tent (帐篷) accommodation here comes with jungle views. Each stay includes game drives with expert guides, who help spot unique animals like the Sri Lankan junglefowl. Brighton, England From November to February, thousands of starlings gather at dusk, circling in patterns. The displays are at their most impressive in midwinter, when native birds are joined by migrants from colder parts of Europe. Stay at No 124 by GuestHouse for sea views. 1. What is talked about in paragraph 1? A. The growth of birdwatching tourism. B. Hotels with modern equipment. C. The population of red-crowned cranes. D. Nature walks with tour guides. 2. Which tourist destination has turned farmland into habitats? A. Hokkaido, Japan. B. Yorkshire Dales, England. C. Yala National Park, Sri Lanka. D. Brighton, England. 3. What do the four birdwatching experiences have in common? A. They offer tent accommodations. B. They include guided wildlife tours. C. They focus on wetland bird species. D. They combine outdoor exploration with leisure. 【答案】1. A 2. B 3. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要讲述了四个观鸟旅游目的地的特色体验及相关信息。 【1题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中“Facing considerable bird population losses and a rising interest in birdwatching from younger generations, the travel industry has responded. Now at the heart of Europe’s birdwatching scene, many hotels offer equipment like binoculars (双筒望远镜) and organize nature walks. What was once a special travel interest is now a popular experience for all guests.(面对鸟类数量的显著减少和年轻一代对观鸟兴趣的增加，旅游业做出了回应。如今，许多酒店已成为欧洲观鸟活动的中心，提供双筒望远镜等设备，并组织自然徒步活动。曾经是一种特殊的旅游兴趣，现在已成为所有客人的热门体验。)”可知，第一段主要讲了观鸟旅游的增长。故选A。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Yorkshire Dales, England部分中“Broughton Sanctuary has transformed over 740 acres of land that was once used for raising animals into a healthy ecosystem. The rewilding project has recently created wetland habitats that attract even more birdlife.(Broughton保护区已经将740多英亩曾经用于饲养动物的土地转变为一个健康的生态系统。这个生态恢复项目最近创建了湿地栖息地，吸引了更多鸟类。)”可知，将农田转变为栖息地的旅游目的地是英国的约克郡山谷。故选B。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Hokkaido, Japan部分中“After a day outdoors, guests can enjoy traditional hot spring baths.(在户外度过一天后，客人可以享受传统的温泉浴。)”、Yorkshire Dales, England部分中“In-between birdwatching, try the wild swimming in a natural pond.(在观鸟的间隙，尝试在天然池塘中野泳。)”、Yala National Park, Sri Lanka部分中“Each stay includes game drives with expert guides, who help spot unique animals like the Sri Lankan junglefowl.(每次入住都包括与专业导游一起进行的野生动物观赏之旅，他们会帮助发现独特的动物，如斯里兰卡原鸡。)”以及Brighton, England部分中“Stay at No 124 by GuestHouse for sea views.(入住124号民宿，欣赏海景。)”可知，这四个观鸟体验的共同点是它们将户外探险与休闲相结合。故选D。 B In 1985, with two young daughters, Roxanne Swentzell, a Native American artist, returned from her studies in Portland to her Santa Clara Pueblo community in New Mexico. Her art was years away from producing real income, so she turned to the land to sustain her family. “I had this dry patch (一小块地) in the high desert,” recalls Swentzell. “I started making it into a homesite, a farm I could grow crops on to feed my family.” To grow corn, beans, berries and grains, Swentzell tapped into the ancient, dry-farming traditions of her people in the southwestern U.S., where sunshine is plentiful and rainfall is limited. These proven techniques—applicable to many other dry regions affected by climate change—are becoming popular again among Native communities. Initially, Swentzell’s use of ancient, high-desert farming was focused on the health of her own family. On her small plot of land, she dug waffle (华夫饼) gardens—grid-like(网格状的) sunken beds with earthen walls that look like a waffle—to keep moisture (水分) and avoid runoff when the occasional rains did come. Terracing on hillsides serves a similar purpose in dry farming; composting (施堆肥) helps enrich the soil. Swentzell also identified microclimates on her land. A large, well-placed rock would slow the flow of water and provide shade and cooling. The fruit trees she planted and took care of did the same. She watched the sun as it moved around her house, making sure her berry bushes and seeds were planted where they could grow well. “Every place on your land has a microclimate,” she tells Mongabay. As her passion for desert farming and seed saving grew, Swentzell’s desire to inspire her community of 7,000 became stronger as well. Swentzell sees the need for such ancient agricultural wisdom to spread further. “This is something the whole world needs at this time,” she says. “So, we’re waking up to the fact that we need to do something. We know that what we’re doing now has worked for centuries before us. And it can work well into the future.” 4. Why did Swentzell return to the land to sustain her family? A. She couldn’t make a living by her art. B. She determined to be with her daughters. C. She lost her interest in arts. D. She intended to improve local people’s life. 5. What does the underlined word “runoff” in paragraph 3 refer to? A. Trees being washed away. B. Water flowing out. C. Houses being flooded up. D. Walls falling apart. 6. What can we learn about the microclimates on Swentzell’s land? A. They were caused by global warming. B. They were changed by water and plants. C. They were discovered accidentally. D. They were used to support plant growth. 7. What does Swentzell suggest people do? A. Expand local community impact. B. Deepen the study of agricultural history. C. Popularize traditional farming essence. D. Abandon modern agricultural knowledge. 【答案】4. A 5. B 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了美国原住民艺术家Roxanne Swentzell借鉴古老旱地耕作传统养家糊口，进而深耕沙漠耕作与种子保存，并希望将这份古老农业智慧传播给社区及全世界的经历。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“In 1985, with two young daughters, Roxanne Swentzell, a Native American artist, returned from her studies in Portland to her Santa Clara Pueblo community in New Mexico. Her art was years away from producing real income, so she turned to the land to sustain her family. (1985年，美国原住民艺术家Roxanne Swentzell带着两个年幼的女儿，从波特兰的学习回到了新墨西哥州的圣克拉拉普韦布洛社区。她的艺术离产生真正的收入还有很多年，所以她转向土地来维持她的家庭。)”可知，Swentzell之所以转而依靠土地养家糊口，是因为她的艺术创作还需要多年才能带来实际收入，即无法靠艺术谋生。故选A。 【5题详解】 词义辨析题。根据划线单词所在语境“On her small plot of land, she dug waffle (华夫饼) gardens—grid-like(网格状的) sunken beds with earthen walls that look like a waffle—to keep moisture (水分) and avoid runoff when the occasional rains did come.(在她的一小块干旱的土地，她挖出了华夫饼花园——网格状的下陷床和看起来像华夫饼的土墙——以保持水分，避免偶尔下雨时……。)”可知，“runoff”与“keep moisture（储存水分）”形成对应，结合旱作农业需珍惜雨水的语境，指降雨时未被保留的水分流失现象，即“水流失或流出”。选项B“Water flowing out.(水流出)”与此相符。故选B。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“She watched the sun as it moved around her house, making sure her berry bushes and seeds were planted where they could grow well. “Every place on your land has a microclimate,” she tells Mongabay.(她看着太阳在她的房子周围移动，确保她的浆果丛和种子种植在它们能生长良好的地方。她告诉Mongabay：“你的土地上的每个地方都有小气候。”)”可知，Swentzell观察土地上的微气候，将植物种植在适宜生长的区域，即微气候被用来支持植物生长。故选D。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第五段“Swentzell sees the need for such ancient agricultural wisdom to spread further. “This is something the whole world needs at this time,” she says. (Swentzell认为，这种古老的农业智慧需要进一步传播。“这是目前全世界都需要的东西，”她说。)”可知，Swentzell认为古老的农业智慧需要进一步传播，即建议人们推广传统耕作的精髓。故选C。 C Glasses that track every blink (眨眼) might be the next big thing in health tech. A small device called BlinkWise clips (夹住) onto regular glasses and uses AI to read your eyelid movements — without cameras, without cloud data, and without running down your battery. It turns something as ordinary as a blink into a powerful signal about your mental and physical state. The average person blinks more than 10,000 times a day. The blink dynamics can reveal important information about focus, eye dryness, and mental workload. As researcher Lama AI-Aswad notes, blinking could be a tool for managing chronic conditions and detecting cognitive changes early. For example, frequent incomplete blinking might signal dry eye disease. Blink analysis, being easy to monitor, offers a powerful approach for early health management. Until now, if doctors or scientists wanted to study your blinking patterns, you had to sit still in front of a high-speed camera in a lab. BlinkWise changes that completely. It just clips onto your glasses, so you can monitor blinks anywhere. That real-time model, called an eye-openness score, is more than just a simple “open or shut” report. It draws a detailed chart of how your eyes are opening and closing in every blink — something even the fastest camera on a smartphone can’t catch. Typical video records at 30 or 60 frames (帧) per second. BlinkWise samples data thousands of times per second. So how does BlinkWise pull this off without draining (耗尽) your battery? It runs all its calculations right on the device itself. There’s no need to send data back and forth to the cloud. Everything happens locally, on a chip smaller than a stamp. To do this, the team adapted advanced techniques and redesigned the processing system. “Today’s smart glasses can take photos or play audio, but they don’t really understand the wearer,” said Mingmin Zhao, one of the lead researchers on the project. “We see BlinkWise not just as a health monitor, but as a building block for glasses that are truly intelligent.” 8. What can we learn about BlinkWise from the first paragraph? A. It records videos of the user’s eyes. B. It relies on cloud data for analysis. C. It turns blinks into health signals. D. It works with specialized glasses. 9. Why does the author mention dry eye disease in paragraph 2? A. To introduce healthy blinking habits. B. To show the origin of blink dynamics. C. To stress the importance of blinking. D. To illustrate blink dynamics’ health implications. 10. Which aspect of BlinkWise does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. Its speed of data sampling. B. Its ability to draw detailed charts. C. Its function of measurement. D. Its advantages over traditional devices. 11. How can BlinkWise achieve energy efficiency? A. It is smaller than a stamp. B. Videos are recorded at a high rate. C. It processes data directly on a tiny chip. D. Calculation data is sent efficiently to the cloud. 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了名为BlinkWise的小型设备，它能够夹在普通眼镜上，利用人工智能读取眨眼动作，将眨眼转化为反映身心状态的强大信号，并详细介绍了其工作原理、优势及未来潜力。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“It turns something as ordinary as a blink into a powerful signal about your mental and physical state. (它把像眨眼这样普通的事情变成了反映你身心状态的强大信号)”可知，BlinkWise将眨眼转化为健康信号。故选C项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“The blink dynamics can reveal important information about focus, eye dryness, and mental workload. As researcher Lama AI-Aswad notes, blinking could be a tool for managing chronic conditions and detecting cognitive changes early. For example, frequent incomplete blinking might signal dry eye disease. (眨眼动态可以揭示关于注意力、眼睛干涩和精神负担的重要信息。正如研究人员Lama AI-Aswad所指出的，眨眼可能是管理慢性疾病和早期发现认知变化的工具。例如，频繁的不完全眨眼可能表明干眼症)”可知，作者提到干眼症是为了说明眨眼动态对健康的影响。故选D项。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“Until now, if doctors or scientists wanted to study your blinking patterns, you had to sit still in front of a high-speed camera in a lab. BlinkWise changes that completely. It just clips onto your glasses, so you can monitor blinks anywhere. That real-time model, called an eye-openness score, is more than just a simple “open or shut” report. It draws a detailed chart of how your eyes are opening and closing in every blink — something even the fastest camera on a smartphone can’t catch. Typical video records at 30 or 60 frames (帧) per second. BlinkWise samples data thousands of times per second. (到目前为止，如果医生或科学家想要研究你的眨眼模式，你必须安静地坐在实验室里的高速摄像机前。BlinkWise彻底改变了这一点。它只需夹在你的眼镜上，你就可以在任何地方监测眨眼。这种实时模型，称为眼睛睁开度分数，不仅仅是一个简单的“睁开或闭合”报告。它绘制了每次眨眼时眼睛如何睁开或闭合的详细图表——这是即使是智能手机上最快的摄像头也无法捕捉到的。典型的视频记录速度为每秒30或60帧。BlinkWise每秒采样数千次数据)”可知，本段主要介绍了BlinkWise与传统设备相比的优势。故选D项。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“So how does BlinkWise pull this off without draining (耗尽) your battery? It runs all its calculations right on the device itself. There’s no need to send data back and forth to the cloud. Everything happens locally, on a chip smaller than a stamp. (那么，BlinkWise是如何在不耗尽电池的情况下实现这一点的呢？它在设备本身上运行所有计算。无需将数据来回发送到云端。一切都在一个比邮票还小的芯片上本地进行)”可知，BlinkWise通过在一个小芯片上直接处理数据来实现节能。故选C项。 D These days, institutions and companies love to announce what they’re doing to tackle the climate crisis. But in reality, the claims are not always accompanied by real, effective action — a shady practice known as greenwashing. But at the same time, other companies are not communicating their sustainability actions. This phenomenon is known as “greenhushing” and it could be just as dangerous as greenwashing. When organizations tone down their efforts, the broader sustainability conversation can be weakened — and the opportunity for businesses to be drivers of social change could be lost. But why would companies deliberately hide things that they are doing well? Our research has investigated how and why organizations take part in greenhushing. We focused particularly on how this occurs in service organizations. First, we examined the communication strategies of 300 UK hotels engaged in environmentally friendly practices across three channels: hotel websites, profiles (简介) on travel site Booking.com, and social media platforms. We found that 62% of UK hotel websites do not include sustainability information, with only 2% of social media posts referring to it. Although booking platforms signal the sustainability of hotels that have third-party certifications, hotel websites often don’t provide much explanation in this regard. Next, we uncovered three main reasons for the tendency towards not communicating — or even hiding — sustainability actions. First, managers spoke of reputational risks, highlighting their fear of being accused of greenwashing. Second, managers said they lacked confidence about the effectiveness of their sustainability practices. Finally, many service managers highlighted that instead of communicating good practice, they relied on sustainability certifications provided by third-party institutions to do the talking for them. But consumers don’t always understand all these certifications. To build trust, it would be better for organizations to provide clear and comprehensive information about their specific sustainability actions. The sustainability dialogue needs to be promoted so that businesses have the opportunity to act as genuine drivers of social change. 12. What does the author think of greenhushing in paragraph 1? A. It is a new form of greenwashing. B. It slows down sustainability progress. C. It urges organizations to make efforts. D. It is more harmful than greenwashing. 13. What do the statistics presented in paragraph 2 indicate? A. A rise in the quality of environmental posts. B. A gap between green actions and communication. C. A drop in the communication effectiveness of hotels. D. A contrast between hotel websites and other channels. 14. What may cause companies to avoid communicating their sustainability efforts? A. Fear of unfair criticism. B. Consumers’ low demands. C. Lack of third-party certifications. D. Managers’ dependence on laws. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Greenhushing: Businesses Understating Sustainable Practices B. Greenhushing: Businesses Discouraging Environmental Efforts C. Greenwashing: Businesses Promoting Sustainable Development D Greenwashing: Businesses Showing Environmental Commitments 【答案】12. B 13. B 14. A 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。主要探讨“绿色沉默”现象，分析企业隐瞒可持续发展行动的原因及危害，并提出相关建议。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“This phenomenon is known as “greenhushing” and it could be just as dangerous as greenwashing. When organizations tone down their efforts, the broader sustainability conversation can be weakened—and the opportunity for businesses to be drivers of social change could be lost.(这种现象被称为“绿色沉默”，其危险性可能与“漂绿”不相上下。当企业淡化自身努力时，更广泛的可持续发展对话会被削弱，企业成为社会变革推动者的机会也可能丧失。)”可知，作者认为绿色沉默会减缓可持续发展的进程。故选B项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“First, we examined the communication strategies of 300 UK hotels engaged in environmentally friendly practices across three channels: hotel websites, profiles (简介) on travel site Booking.com, and social media platforms. We found that 62% of UK hotel websites do not include sustainability information, with only 2% of social media posts referring to it.(首先，我们调查了 300 家践行环保举措的英国酒店在三个渠道的沟通策略：酒店官网、旅游平台缤客（Booking.com）的商家简介以及社交媒体平台。结果发现，62% 的英国酒店官网未包含可持续发展相关信息，仅有2%的社交媒体帖子涉及该内容。)”可知，这些数据表明绿色行动与沟通之间存在差距。故选B项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“First, managers spoke of reputational risks, highlighting their fear of being accused of greenwashing.(首先，管理者提到了声誉风险，强调他们担心被指控为漂绿。)”可知，企业避免沟通可持续发展努力的原因之一是害怕受到不公平的批评（被误指为漂绿）。故选A项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文以及根据第一段“These days, institutions and companies love to announce what they’re doing to tackle the climate crisis. But in reality, the claims are not always accompanied by real, effective action — a shady practice known as greenwashing. But at the same time, other companies are not communicating their sustainability actions. This phenomenon is known as “greenhushing” and it could be just as dangerous as greenwashing. When organizations tone down their efforts, the broader sustainability conversation can be weakened — and the opportunity for businesses to be drivers of social change could be lost. But why would companies deliberately hide things that they are doing well?(如今，各类机构和企业都热衷于宣称自己为应对气候危机所采取的举措。但事实上，这些声明并非总能伴随真实有效的行动——这种不光彩的做法被称为 “漂绿”。而与此同时，另一些企业却不对外宣传自己的可持续发展行动。这种现象被称作 “绿色沉默”，其危险性可能与“漂绿”不相上下。当机构淡化自身的努力时，更广泛的可持续发展对话会被削弱，企业成为社会变革推动者的机会也可能就此丧失。但企业为何要刻意隐瞒自己做得好的事情呢？)”可知，文章核心围绕“绿色沉默”（greenhushing）展开，介绍了这一现象的定义、表现（企业隐瞒可持续发展行动）、原因及建议。A项“绿色沉默：企业淡化可持续发展实践”为最佳标题。故选A项。 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选项。 Responsible Travel: Best Immersive (沉浸式的) Adventures with Volunteering Abroad Traveling offers a way to discover new cultures, landscapes, and perspectives.

On her first day at Walker Senior High School, she was nervous but excited, knowing that her best friend Mandy would be with her. They’d stuck together from elementary school to junior high school, claiming bus seats, sitting together at lunch, and being the best in gym teams. However, Stacey was assigned to the advanced classes, separated from Mandy in English. science, math, and social studies. She was in low spirits in her new English class until her teacher, who was also the adviser to the school newspaper, invited students to attend the first meeting next Tuesday. Her heart raced — this was her chance to be a real journalist like Nellie Bly. Later, in gym, the coach announced soccer tryouts. Stacey and Mandy cheered, hoping to be on the team together — until Stacey heard soccer practice was every Tuesday, which conflicted with newspaper meetings. Stacey was torn. She talked to her English teacher, but he stressed commitment to the newspaper, just as the coach did for soccer. Her dad advised her to list the advantages and disadvantages: playing soccer meant staying with her best friend while writing for the newspaper meant pursuing her dream of journalism. She struggled, calling the choice “simply awful.” At Saturday’s soccer tryouts, the field was crowded and Stacey played well with Mandy. Unsurprisingly, when the team list came out on Monday, it showed that both of them made it. Seized with confusion instead of joy, Stacey leaned against the wall and closed her eyes. Noticing her strangeness, Jonathan, the soccer team’s manager who used a wheelchair, approached her with concern. Learning her problem, he shared his own story. He loved soccer, but due to his physical condition, he couldn’t join the soccer team. However, he didn’t give up. Instead, he became the team manager. And he encouraged Stacey to think creatively to find a solution that could satisfy both her needs to maintain friendships and pursue her dream. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150词左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Thinking over Jonathan’s words, Stacey consulted her dad again. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As a sports journalist, Stacey came to report the soccer team’s first training after tryouts. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 Thinking over Jonathan’s words, Stacey consulted her dad again. Patient and concerned, he asked Stacey if she had made her choice. Shaking her head helplessly, she told the story of Jonathan, inquiring what the perfect solution would be. He wrote SOCCER and NEWSPAPER on the paper, thought for a while, and then added a plus sign between them. The words were like a ray of sunlight driving away the fog in front of Stacey. “I can be a sports journalist!” Stacey shouted, her previously knotted brows replaced by a joyful smile. As a sports journalist, Stacey came to report the soccer team’s first training after tryouts. Notebook in hand, she felt a thrilling sense of purpose. Mandy, spotting her, waved enthusiastically from the field. Responding with a bright smile, Stacey started her mission — interviewing the coach about his strategy for the season. She even sought out Jonathan, whose insightful advice had changed everything, and extended her sincere gratitude. He beamed with pride, happy to see her new identity. At that moment, Stacey realized she had turned a difficult choice into a new beginning by thinking creatively. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了十年级学生史黛西热爱新闻事业，梦想成为像内莉・布莱一样的记者。高中开学后，她与好友曼迪因分班分开，还面临着参加校报和加入足球队的时间冲突。在足球队经理乔纳森的启发下，她开始思考如何兼顾两者。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“反复思索着乔纳森的话，史黛西再次向父亲征求意见。”可知，第一段续写应围绕史黛西与父亲的交流展开，描述父亲如何引导她将足球和校报结合，让她想到成为体育记者这一解决办法，体现她的豁然开朗。 ②由第二段首句内容“作为体育记者，史黛西前来报道足球队试训后的第一次训练。”可知，第二段续写要展现史黛西以体育记者身份报道足球队训练的场景，包括她与曼迪、乔纳森的互动，以及她对这一选择的感悟，突出创造性解决问题带来的新开始。 2.续写线索：思考乔纳森的话后咨询父亲——父亲给出启发——史黛西想到成为体育记者——为体育记者报道首训——与曼迪、乔纳森互动——感悟选择的意义 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①喊叫：shout /yell ②取代：replace /take the place of ③意识到：realize /be aware of 情绪类 ①无助地：helplessly /powerlessly ②感激：gratitude /appreciation 【点睛】[高分句型1] She even sought out Jonathan, whose insightful advice had changed everything, and extended her sincere gratitude.

Now at the heart of Europe’s birdwatching scene, many hotels offer equipment like binoculars (双筒望远镜) and organize nature walks. What was once a special travel interest is now a popular experience for all guests. From watching red-crowned cranes (丹顶鹤) in Hokkaido to observing Brighton’s famous starling murmuration (椋鸟群飞舞), here are some of the best birdwatching experiences to try. Hokkaido, Japan Eastern Hokkaido offers one of winter’s most amazing birdwatching experiences, with two remarkable species: red-crowned cranes performing dances against snowy landscapes, and sea eagles diving for fish. After a day outdoors, guests can enjoy traditional hot spring baths. Yorkshire Dales, England Broughton Sanctuary has transformed over 740 acres of land that was once used for raising animals into a healthy ecosystem. The rewilding project has recently created wetland habitats that attract even more birdlife. In-between birdwatching, try the wild swimming in a natural pond. Yala National Park, Sri Lanka One of the best places to see the island’s most diverse wildlife is Wild Coast Tented Lodge. The tent (帐篷) accommodation here comes with jungle views. Each stay includes game drives with expert guides, who help spot unique animals like the Sri Lankan junglefowl. Brighton, England From November to February, thousands of starlings gather at dusk, circling in patterns. The displays are at their most impressive in midwinter, when native birds are joined by migrants from colder parts of Europe. Stay at No 124 by GuestHouse for sea views. 1. What is talked about in paragraph 1? A. The growth of birdwatching tourism. B. Hotels with modern equipment. C. The population of red-crowned cranes. D. Nature walks with tour guides. 2. Which tourist destination has turned farmland into habitats? A. Hokkaido, Japan. B. Yorkshire Dales, England. C. Yala National Park, Sri Lanka. D. Brighton, England. 3. What do the four birdwatching experiences have in common? A. They offer tent accommodations. B. They include guided wildlife tours. C. They focus on wetland bird species. D. They combine outdoor exploration with leisure. B In 1985, with two young daughters, Roxanne Swentzell, a Native American artist, returned from her studies in Portland to her Santa Clara Pueblo community in New Mexico. Her art was years away from producing real income, so she turned to the land to sustain her family. “I had this dry patch (一小块地) in the high desert,” recalls Swentzell. “I started making it into a homesite, a farm I could grow crops on to feed my family.” To grow corn, beans, berries and grains, Swentzell tapped into the ancient, dry-farming traditions of her people in the southwestern U.S., where sunshine is plentiful and rainfall is limited. These proven techniques—applicable to many other dry regions affected by climate change—are becoming popular again among Native communities. Initially, Swentzell’s use of ancient, high-desert farming was focused on the health of her own family. On her small plot of land, she dug waffle (华夫饼) gardens—grid-like(网格状的) sunken beds with earthen walls that look like a waffle—to keep moisture (水分) and avoid runoff when the occasional rains did come. Terracing on hillsides serves a similar purpose in dry farming; composting (施堆肥) helps enrich the soil. Swentzell also identified microclimates on her land. A large, well-placed rock would slow the flow of water and provide shade and cooling. The fruit trees she planted and took care of did the same. She watched the sun as it moved around her house, making sure her berry bushes and seeds were planted where they could grow well. “Every place on your land has a microclimate,” she tells Mongabay. As her passion for desert farming and seed saving grew, Swentzell’s desire to inspire her community of 7,000 became stronger as well. Swentzell sees the need for such ancient agricultural wisdom to spread further. “This is something the whole world needs at this time,” she says. “So, we’re waking up to the fact that we need to do something. We know that what we’re doing now has worked for centuries before us. And it can work well into the future.” 4. Why did Swentzell return to the land to sustain her family? A. She couldn’t make a living by her art. B. She determined to be with her daughters. C. She lost her interest in arts. D. She intended to improve local people’s life. 5 What does the underlined word “runoff” in paragraph 3 refer to? A. Trees being washed away. B. Water flowing out. C. Houses being flooded up. D. Walls falling apart. 6. What can we learn about the microclimates on Swentzell’s land? A. They were caused by global warming. B. They were changed by water and plants. C. They were discovered accidentally. D. They were used to support plant growth. 7. What does Swentzell suggest people do? A. Expand local community impact. B. Deepen the study of agricultural history. C. Popularize traditional farming essence. D. Abandon modern agricultural knowledge. C Glasses that track every blink (眨眼) might be the next big thing in health tech. A small device called BlinkWise clips (夹住) onto regular glasses and uses AI to read your eyelid movements — without cameras, without cloud data, and without running down your battery. It turns something as ordinary as a blink into a powerful signal about your mental and physical state. The average person blinks more than 10,000 times a day. The blink dynamics can reveal important information about focus, eye dryness, and mental workload. As researcher Lama AI-Aswad notes, blinking could be a tool for managing chronic conditions and detecting cognitive changes early. For example, frequent incomplete blinking might signal dry eye disease. Blink analysis, being easy to monitor, offers a powerful approach for early health management. Until now if doctors or scientists wanted to study your blinking patterns, you had to sit still in front of a high-speed camera in a lab. BlinkWise changes that completely. It just clips onto your glasses, so you can monitor blinks anywhere. That real-time model, called an eye-openness score, is more than just a simple “open or shut” report. It draws a detailed chart of how your eyes are opening and closing in every blink — something even the fastest camera on a smartphone can’t catch. Typical video records at 30 or 60 frames (帧) per second. BlinkWise samples data thousands of times per second. So how does BlinkWise pull this off without draining (耗尽) your battery? It runs all its calculations right on the device itself. There’s no need to send data back and forth to the cloud. Everything happens locally, on a chip smaller than a stamp. To do this, the team adapted advanced techniques and redesigned the processing system. “Today’s smart glasses can take photos or play audio, but they don’t really understand the wearer,” said Mingmin Zhao, one of the lead researchers on the project. “We see BlinkWise not just as a health monitor, but as a building block for glasses that are truly intelligent.” 8. What can we learn about BlinkWise from the first paragraph? A. It records videos of the user’s eyes. B. It relies on cloud data for analysis. C. It turns blinks into health signals. D. It works with specialized glasses. 9. Why does the author mention dry eye disease in paragraph 2? A. To introduce healthy blinking habits. B. To show the origin of blink dynamics. C. To stress the importance of blinking. D. To illustrate blink dynamics’ health implications. 10. Which aspect of BlinkWise does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. Its speed of data sampling. B. Its ability to draw detailed charts. C. Its function of measurement. D. Its advantages over traditional devices. 11. How can BlinkWise achieve energy efficiency? A. It is smaller than a stamp. B. Videos are recorded at a high rate. C. It processes data directly on a tiny chip. D. Calculation data is sent efficiently to the cloud. D These days, institutions and companies love to announce what they’re doing to tackle the climate crisis. But in reality, the claims are not always accompanied by real, effective action — a shady practice known as greenwashing. But at the same time, other companies are not communicating their sustainability actions. This phenomenon is known as “greenhushing” and it could be just as dangerous as greenwashing. When organizations tone down their efforts, the broader sustainability conversation can be weakened — and the opportunity for businesses to be drivers of social change could be lost. But why would companies deliberately hide things that they are doing well? Our research has investigated how and why organizations take part in greenhushing. We focused particularly on how this occurs in service organizations. First, we examined the communication strategies of 300 UK hotels engaged in environmentally friendly practices across three channels: hotel websites, profiles (简介) on travel site Booking.com, and social media platforms. We found that 62% of UK hotel websites do not include sustainability information, with only 2% of social media posts referring to it. Although booking platforms signal the sustainability of hotels that have third-party certifications, hotel websites often don’t provide much explanation in this regard. Next, we uncovered three main reasons for the tendency towards not communicating — or even hiding — sustainability actions. First, managers spoke of reputational risks, highlighting their fear of being accused of greenwashing. Second, managers said they lacked confidence about the effectiveness of their sustainability practices. Finally, many service managers highlighted that instead of communicating good practice, they relied on sustainability certifications provided by third-party institutions to do the talking for them. But consumers don’t always understand all these certifications. To build trust, it would be better for organizations to provide clear and comprehensive information about their specific sustainability actions. The sustainability dialogue needs to be promoted so that businesses have the opportunity to act as genuine drivers of social change. 12. What does the author think of greenhushing in paragraph 1? A. It is a new form of greenwashing. B. It slows down sustainability progress. C. It urges organizations to make efforts. D. It is more harmful than greenwashing. 13. What do the statistics presented in paragraph 2 indicate? A. A rise in the quality of environmental posts. B. A gap between green actions and communication. C. A drop in the communication effectiveness of hotels. D. A contrast between hotel websites and other channels. 14. What may cause companies to avoid communicating their sustainability efforts? A. Fear of unfair criticism. B. Consumers’ low demands. C. Lack of third-party certifications. D. Managers’ dependence on laws. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A Greenhushing: Businesses Understating Sustainable Practices B. Greenhushing: Businesses Discouraging Environmental Efforts C. Greenwashing: Businesses Promoting Sustainable Development D. Greenwashing: Businesses Showing Environmental Commitments 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选项。 Responsible Travel: Best Immersive (沉浸式的) Adventures with Volunteering Abroad Traveling offers a way to discover new cultures, landscapes, and perspectives.

On her first day at Walker Senior High School, she was nervous but excited, knowing that her best friend Mandy would be with her. They’d stuck together from elementary school to junior high school, claiming bus seats, sitting together at lunch, and being the best in gym teams. However, Stacey was assigned to the advanced classes, separated from Mandy in English. science, math, and social studies. She was in low spirits in her new English class until her teacher, who was also the adviser to the school newspaper, invited students to attend the first meeting next Tuesday. Her heart raced — this was her chance to be a real journalist like Nellie Bly. Later, in gym, the coach announced soccer tryouts. Stacey and Mandy cheered, hoping to be on the team together — until Stacey heard soccer practice was every Tuesday, which conflicted with newspaper meetings. Stacey was torn. She talked to her English teacher, but he stressed commitment to the newspaper, just as the coach did for soccer. Her dad advised her to list the advantages and disadvantages: playing soccer meant staying with her best friend while writing for the newspaper meant pursuing her dream of journalism. She struggled, calling the choice “simply awful.” At Saturday’s soccer tryouts, the field was crowded and Stacey played well with Mandy. Unsurprisingly, when the team list came out on Monday, it showed that both of them made it. Seized with confusion instead of joy, Stacey leaned against the wall and closed her eyes. Noticing her strangeness, Jonathan, the soccer team’s manager who used a wheelchair, approached her with concern. Learning her problem, he shared his own story. He loved soccer, but due to his physical condition, he couldn’t join the soccer team. However, he didn’t give up. Instead, he became the team manager. And he encouraged Stacey to think creatively to find a solution that could satisfy both her needs to maintain friendships and pursue her dream. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150词左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Thinking over Jonathan’s words, Stacey consulted her dad again. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As a sports journalist, Stacey came to report the soccer team’s first training after tryouts. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
