A
Young Entrepreneurs Fight Plastic Pollution
Background: The theme of this year’s World Environment Day (June 5) is “Ending Plastic Pollution”. In China, a group of young entrepreneurs have transformed waste such as plastic bottles, fishing nets, and old bicycle tires into fashionable and practical products, contributing to the construction of a “plastic-free future”.
Details of Young Entrepreneurs’ Practical Projects
Entrepreneur
Region
Brand (品牌)
Core Practices
Gao Chao
Shenzhen
UOOSEE
Cooperates with nearly 2,000 bicycle shops nationwide, collecting over 3,000 old tires monthly; processes tires into durable and waterproof backpacks through cleaning, cutting, and sewing without chemical treatment, which are popular among young consumers who value environmental protection and style.
Supa
Foshan
HowBottle
Turns drink bottles and fishing nets into recycled plastic to produce bags, hats, glasses and other products; advocates that “materials themselves are not bad — plastic has value if recycled rather than thrown away”.
Ren Yao
Chengdu
AbuSolutely
Founded the brand in 2011, developed lightweight and tough bamboo bicycles inspired by a 100-year-old British bamboo bicycle; products have passed EU testing, and he personally rode a bamboo bicycle to complete the 2,600-kilometer Qinghai-Tibet Line challenge from Chengdu to Lhasa; bamboo fiber has a bearing capacity three times that of steel at the same weight, with both high toughness and shock reduction.
Market Feedback and Consumer Cognition (认知)
Sales Performance: The sale of Ren Yao’s bamboo bicycles has grown from 12 units in 2016 to 300 — 400 units per year currently;
Consumption Trend: More and more Chinese consumers choose green products and recognize the concept of environmental protection;
Existing Concern: Some consumers believe that green products are priced relatively high.
Entrepreneurs’ Views on Green Products
Supa: The high price of green products comes from green practices like proper waste handling; as more enterprises participate in green production, product choices will become richer;
Gao Chao: Young consumers tend to choose products matching their own values. UOOSEE uses long-lasting materials (backpacks have a service life of over 10 years) to pursue “sustainable fashion” rather than short-term trends;
Ren Yao: Green products must prioritize quality (consumers will not buy them only for environment); optimistic about the global competitiveness of Chinese green brands, believing that China’s strong production capacity can support high-quality products to stand out.
1. What is the main purpose of the young entrepreneurs mentioned in the text?
A. To promote Chinese brands in the global market.
B. To create fashionable products for young buyers.
C. To fight plastic pollution by recycling waste materials.
D. To prove the value of bamboo as a replacement for steel.
2. Why are green products often more expensive according to Supa?
A. They use rare and valuable materials. B. They require proper handling of waste.
C. They are designed to last for over 10 years. D. They need to pass strict EU tests.
3. What can we infer from Ren Yao’s bamboo bicycles?
A. The bearing capacity of bamboo bicycles is lighter than that of steel bicycles.
B. Chinese consumers have become more willing to buy green products.
C. Bamboo was widely accepted as a high-quality material at first.
D. Riding a bamboo bicycle across the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau is easy.

In college, I wrote an essay about Christmas Eve. I wanted to share the spirit of this special night for my family. I got an A, but even better was this comment from my professor: “I believe you have found an avocation.”
I had to look up “avocation”. According to Merriam-Webster, it means “a subordinate (副职的) occupation pursued in addition to one’s vocation (天职) especially for enjoyment: HOBBY.” It can also mean “customary employment”, or vocation. I’m not sure which way the professor meant it, but either way, he turned out to be right.
My essay described our traditions: chili, church, two presents (pajamas, plus a gift of our choosing). A lot of it was about my Aunt Bud, the head of my mom’s family. We were lucky we lived closest, so she spent holidays at our house. Sadly, she’s gone now. Like so many wonderful spirits, she died too young, just after she retired with big plans for an easy life.
But she’s not really gone. She visits us all often, in the form of a cardinal (红衣凤头鸟) — her favorite bird and one that actually looks a lot like her. Round and bossy.
One June day, I called my mom. “What are you doing?” I asked. “Sitting here looking at Bud’s tree,” she said, referring to the tree that the funeral home (殡仪馆) had sent home with us. It was about a foot tall when my dad planted it; today it towers over the roofline.
“There are cardinals all over it,” Mom said. “I’ve never seen so many.”
I wasn’t surprised. “Mom, you know what day it is, right?” I said. “It’s Aunt Bud’s birthday.” So of course she had come to visit — with friends.
In this issue we’ve collected inspiring stories about unusual events that happened around the holidays. This year we focus on people who extended a kindness that made a forever difference in someone’s life. “Angels in action,” we call them. I hope your angels visit you this holiday season.

5. Why did Aunt Bud stay with the author during holidays?
A. Because she was the leader. B. Because of my writing talent.
C. Because we held celebrations. D. Because of the house location.

Last year, an estimated one in seven Americans participated in Dry January, a challenge to abstain from alcohol for a month. The idea is to detox (戒掉) from holiday alcohol excess (过量) and start the new year on a healthier note. The annual 31-day exercise began as a public health campaign in the United Kingdom about eight years ago and has been growing ever since.
Dry January is a great strategy for improving your relationship with alcohol, says Keith Heinzerling, MD, internist and addiction medicine specialist at the Pacific Neuroscience Institute in Santa Monica, California. “Doing a ‘trial quit’ for a short period of time is easier for many people than going straight to total abstinence (节制),” he says. “Taking time away from drinking, even just for a few weeks, gives you a fresh perspective and the opportunity to break bad habits you may have with alcohol.”
It doesn’t take long to start to see positive changes, according to Dr. Heinzerling. “Within just a few days of not drinking, your blood pressure and heart rate will be lower, and you’ll have improved blood sugar regulation, better sleep, and less anxiety and depression,” he says. Another bonus: Quitting alcohol often makes other good habits — exercise and healthy eating, for example — easier to start and maintain, which in turn leads to even more health benefits.
For those who are concerned they might not be able to handle a month of not drinking, Dr. Heinzerling says a crucial sign is how you feel when you wake up in the morning. “People who wake up with withdrawal symptoms, irritability (易怒), sweating, shaking, and a strong need for a drink should not do Dry January or any detox program without medical supervision,” he says.
For everyone — social drinkers and possible problem drinkers — one key to a positive Dry January is to see it not as a month of gritting (咬紧) your teeth and getting through it until you can drink again, but rather the start of a healthier lifestyle overall. What better way to start the new year?
8. What does the underlined “abstain from” mean in paragraph 1?
A. Try out. B. Bring in. C. Give up. D. Cut down.
9. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. Pressure after less sleep. B. Importance of body exam.
C. Changes after healthy eating. D. Advantages of quitting alcohol.
10. Which can best show the inference about Dry January from the last paragraph?
A. A flash in the pan. B. A stepping stone.
C. A wolf in sheep’s clothing. D. A bitter pill to swallow.
11. What is Keith Heinzerling’s attitude towards Dry January?
A. Doubtful. B. Subjective. C. Supportive. D. Dismissive.
D
For many years, scientists believed that all dinosaurs were cold-blooded. However, they also knew that dinosaurs eventually evolved into modern birds, like pigeons and chickens, which are warm-blooded. That meant that at least some dinosaurs must have become warm-blooded, but which ones and when that happened was unclear. Now a new study has found that dinosaurs became warm-blooded about 183 million years ago.
Cold-blooded, or ectothermic, animals rely on external sources of heat, like sunlight, to maintain their body temperature. Reptiles, amphibians, and most fish are cold-blooded. Warm-blooded, or endothermic, animals can generate their own body heat internally. Birds and mammals, including humans, are warm-blooded.
The new study was led by Alfio Alessandro Chiarenza of University College London, in the UK. He and his team analyzed about 1,000 dinosaur fossils from the Mesozoic Era (230 to 66 million years ago). They also looked at how the climate changed and different species of dinosaurs spread throughout the Earth during that period. About 183 million years ago, massive volcanic eruptions caused climate disruptions (紊乱) on Earth and led to the extinction of many plant and animal species. The team found that at about this time, two of the three main dinosaur groups — theropods and ornithischians — migrated (迁徙) to colder climates. Theropods include Tyrannosaurus rex, and ornithischians include Triceratops and Stegosaurus.
According to the study, the move to colder areas indicates that these dinosaurs had developed the ability to generate their own body heat. “If something is capable of living in very cold regions, it must have some way of heating up,” Chiarenza said. In contrast, sauropods (蜥脚类恐龙), the dinosaur group that includes the Brontosaurus, mostly stayed in dry, warm climates. As cold-blooded dinosaurs, they would have needed a warm environment.
The team believes that the ability to regulate their own body temperatures gave warm-blooded dinosaurs an advantage after the climate disruption. They would have been able to stay active, grow, and have babies, all of which would have helped them to survive.
12. Where do warm-blooded animals get heat from?
A. Sunlight. B. Themselves. C. Other animals. D. Volcanic eruption.
13. How did the author develop paragraph 4?
A. By making comparisons. B. By presenting statistics.
C. By giving a definition. D. By describing the research process.
14. What will the text probably talk about next?
A. The reasons why sauropods eventually went extinct.
B. The applications to predicting future climate changes.
C. Specific evidence of how warm-blooded dinosaurs lived.
D. A detailed description of the massive volcanic eruptions.
15. Which is probably the best title for the text?
A. The Dinosaur Migration Mystery B. Volcanoes: A Dinosaur Extinction Event
C. How Dinosaurs Adapted to Cold Climates D. Sauropods: The Last Cold-Blooded Giants

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。
Emotional intelligence (EI) is a critical skill to build stronger and empathetic (共情的) relationships, and it helps connect with our deepest feelings, allowing us to make decisions more consistent with our values and personal goals. Some individuals might naturally be more emotionally intelligent than others. ___16___
Identify and make note of your emotional reactions.
The ability to recognize and name your own emotions is an important indicator of a high EI. ___17___ This will help you practice the skill of identifying your feelings and connecting them to the events that triggered (触发) them, so you can better manage your emotions in the future.
___18___
Self-control is one of the major components of emotional intelligence, and willpower is key to self-control. Willpower involves resisting short-term temptation (诱惑) and satisfaction in order to focus on long-term goals. Researchers suggest that willpower is like a muscle, which means that it can get stronger over time with consistent, healthy exercise.
Pay attention to your body.
Instead of ignoring the physical signals of your emotions, start listening to them. Our minds and bodies are not separate, and they affect each other deeply. You can raise your EI by learning how to read physical clues that tell you into what emotions you’re feeling. ___19___
Work on your listening skills.
Truly listening to others while they speak helps you pick up on their emotions and respond to them, which is a key aspect of emotional intelligence. ___20___ Active listening skills include using engaged body language, summarizing and repeating what the other person said, asking thoughtful questions, and making sure you take equal turns talking.
A. Work on your willpower.
B. Keep things under your control.
C. Practice your active listening skills in order to be a good listener.
D. However, high EI can be developed with time through regular practice.
E. This essentially raises your self-awareness, which is a key component of EI.
F. Try starting a journal to keep track of your emotions and reflect on their causes.
G. This growing self-awareness is fundamental, as it directly influences your social skills.

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。
A simple “Puppies (小狗) for Sale” sign hung on the pet shop door, catching the eyes of passers-by, especially children. One afternoon, a boy around eight years old paused outside the shop. His clothes were worn but neat. After a moment’s hesitation, he pushed the door open, and a small bell announced his arrival.
The shop owner, a gentle-faced man, looked up from his work. “Can I help you, son?” he asked kindly.
“How much are the puppies?” the boy replied, his voice shaking with hope.
“Anywhere from thirty to fifty dollars” the owner said.
The boy’s face fell. He dug into his pocket and pulled out a handful of crumpled (皱巴巴的) bills and coins. Carefully counting them, he said, “I have two dollars and thirty-seven cents. May I please see the puppies?” Touched by the boy’s sincerity, the owner smiled and made a soft sound with his mouth. A graceful Labrador named Lady emerged from the back, followed by five tiny, energetic puppies. But one puppy lagged far behind, limping (跛行) painfully with every step.
The boy’s eyes locked onto the struggling puppy. “What’s wrong with that one?” he asked his voice filled with concern. “The animal doctor said he was born with improper bones,” the owner explained gently. “He’ll always limp and never run or play like the others.”
To the owner’s surprise, the boy’s face lit up. “That’s the puppy I want to buy!” he insisted. “You don’t want him,” the owner said, shaking his head. “If you like him, I’ll give him to you for free.”
The boy stood tall, his eyes burning with determination. “I don’t want him for free. He’s worth as much as the others. I’ll pay two dollars and thirty-seven cents now and fifty cents every month until he’s paid for.” The owner bent down, his voice softening. “But he won’t be able to run or play with you like a normal puppy.”
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150个左右;

In response, the boy rolled up his left pant leg, a metal brace supporting his thin leg.

Overcome with emotion the shop owner felt tears spring to his eyes.

Core Practices
Gao Chao
Shenzhen
UOOSEE
Cooperates with nearly 2,000 bicycle shops nationwide, collecting over 3,000 old tires monthly; processes tires into durable and waterproof backpacks through cleaning, cutting, and sewing without chemical treatment, which are popular among young consumers who value environmental protection and style.
Supa
Foshan
HowBottle
Turns drink bottles and fishing nets into recycled plastic to produce bags, hats, glasses and other products; advocates that “materials themselves are not bad — plastic has value if recycled rather than thrown away”.
Ren Yao
Chengdu
AbuSolutely
Founded the brand in 2011, developed lightweight and tough bamboo bicycles inspired by a 100-year-old British bamboo bicycle; products have passed EU testing, and he personally rode a bamboo bicycle to complete the 2,600-kilometer Qinghai-Tibet Line challenge from Chengdu to Lhasa; bamboo fiber has a bearing capacity three times that of steel at the same weight, with both high toughness and shock reduction.
Market Feedback and Consumer Cognition (认知)
Sales Performance: The sale of Ren Yao’s bamboo bicycles has grown from 12 units in 2016 to 300 — 400 units per year currently;
Consumption Trend: More and more Chinese consumers choose green products and recognize the concept of environmental protection;
Existing Concern: Some consumers believe that green products are priced relatively high.
Entrepreneurs’ Views on Green Products
Supa: The high price of green products comes from green practices like proper waste handling; as more enterprises participate in green production, product choices will become richer;
Gao Chao: Young consumers tend to choose products matching their own values. UOOSEE uses long-lasting materials (backpacks have a service life of over 10 years) to pursue “sustainable fashion” rather than short-term trends;
Ren Yao: Green products must prioritize quality (consumers will not buy them only for environment); optimistic about the global competitiveness of Chinese green brands, believing that China’s strong production capacity can support high-quality products to stand out.

In college, I wrote an essay about Christmas Eve. I wanted to share the spirit of this special night for my family. I got an A, but even better was this comment from my professor: “I believe you have found an avocation.”
I had to look up “avocation”. According to Merriam-Webster, it means “a subordinate (副职的) occupation pursued in addition to one’s vocation (天职) especially for enjoyment: HOBBY.” It can also mean “customary employment”, or vocation. I’m not sure which way the professor meant it, but either way, he turned out to be right.
My essay described our traditions: chili, church, two presents (pajamas, plus a gift of our choosing). A lot of it was about my Aunt Bud, the head of my mom’s family. We were lucky we lived closest, so she spent holidays at our house. Sadly, she’s gone now. Like so many wonderful spirits, she died too young, just after she retired with big plans for an easy life.
But she’s not really gone. She visits us all often, in the form of a cardinal (红衣凤头鸟) — her favorite bird and one that actually looks a lot like her. Round and bossy.
One June day, I called my mom. “What are you doing?” I asked. “Sitting here looking at Bud’s tree,” she said, referring to the tree that the funeral home (殡仪馆) had sent home with us. It was about a foot tall when my dad planted it; today it towers over the roofline.
“There are cardinals all over it,” Mom said. “I’ve never seen so many.”
I wasn’t surprised. “Mom, you know what day it is, right?” I said. “It’s Aunt Bud’s birthday.” So of course she had come to visit — with friends.
In this issue, we’ve collected inspiring stories about unusual events that happened around the holidays. This year we focus on people who extended a kindness that made a forever difference in someone’s life. “Angels in action,” we call them. I hope your angels visit you this holiday season.

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述作者因一篇圣诞主题作文得到教授启发,回忆阿姨及与她相关的温暖回忆,并引出杂志的节日故事专栏
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“I had to look up “avocation”. According to Merriam-Webster, it means “a subordinate (副职的) occupation pursued in addition to one’s vocation (天职) especially for enjoyment: HOBBY.” It can also mean “customary employment”, or vocation. I’m not sure which way the professor meant it, but either way, he turned out to be right.(我不得不去查了“avocation”这个词。根据《韦氏词典》的解释,它的意思是“主业之外附带从事的副业,尤指为消遣而做:即爱好”;也可表示“日常工作”,等同于“vocation”。我不确定教授当时指的是哪种含义,但不管是哪一种,事实证明他都说对了)”以及文章后续表明,作者已成为杂志副主编,印证了写作不仅是她的职业,更是她毕生的热情所在。由此可推断,教授的意思是作者已经发现了自己的兴趣所在。故选D项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“We were lucky we lived closest, so she spent holidays at our house.(我们很幸运,因为我们住得离得最近,所以她总是来我们家过节)”可知,巴德阿姨会在假期来作者家,是因为作者家离她住得最近,也就是受住房位置的影响。故选D项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“But she’s not really gone. She visits us all often, in the form of a cardinal (红衣凤头鸟) — her favorite bird and one that actually looks a lot like her. Round and bossy.(但她其实并未真正离开。她经常以一种特殊的形式回到我们身边,那就是以红衣凤头鸟的形象出现——那是她最喜爱的鸟儿,而且它的模样还真和她很相像。圆圆的脑袋,霸气十足)”可知,作者将红衣凤头鸟当作阿姨的化身,用这种鸟类象征阿姨从未真正离开。因此纪念阿姨主要用的是象征手法。故选B项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“In this issue, we’ve collected inspiring stories about unusual events that happened around the holidays.(在本期中,我们收集了有关在节日期间发生的奇特事件的感人故事)”以及文末的编辑署名和投稿邮箱可知,本文最有可能摘自一本故事杂志。故选A项。
C
Last year, an estimated one in seven Americans participated in Dry January, a challenge to abstain from alcohol for a month. The idea is to detox (戒掉) from holiday alcohol excess (过量) and start the new year on a healthier note. The annual 31-day exercise began as a public health campaign in the United Kingdom about eight years ago and has been growing ever since.
Dry January is a great strategy for improving your relationship with alcohol, says Keith Heinzerling, MD, internist and addiction medicine specialist at the Pacific Neuroscience Institute in Santa Monica, California. “Doing a ‘trial quit’ for a short period of time is easier for many people than going straight to total abstinence (节制),” he says. “Taking time away from drinking, even just for a few weeks, gives you a fresh perspective and the opportunity to break bad habits you may have with alcohol.”
It doesn’t take long to start to see positive changes, according to Dr. Heinzerling. “Within just a few days of not drinking, your blood pressure and heart rate will be lower, and you’ll have improved blood sugar regulation, better sleep, and less anxiety and depression,” he says. Another bonus: Quitting alcohol often makes other good habits — exercise and healthy eating, for example — easier to start and maintain, which in turn leads to even more health benefits.
For those who are concerned they might not be able to handle a month of not drinking, Dr. Heinzerling says a crucial sign is how you feel when you wake up in the morning. “People who wake up with withdrawal symptoms, irritability (易怒), sweating, shaking, and a strong need for a drink should not do Dry January or any detox program without medical supervision,” he says.
For everyone — social drinkers and possible problem drinkers — one key to a positive Dry January is to see it not as a month of gritting (咬紧) your teeth and getting through it until you can drink again, but rather the start of a healthier lifestyle overall. What better way to start the new year?
8. What does the underlined “abstain from” mean in paragraph 1?
A Try out. B. Bring in. C. Give up. D. Cut down.
9. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. Pressure after less sleep. B. Importance of body exam.
C. Changes after healthy eating. D. Advantages of quitting alcohol.
10. Which can best show the inference about Dry January from the last paragraph?
A. A flash in the pan. B. A stepping stone.
C. A wolf in sheep’s clothing. D. A bitter pill to swallow.
11. What is Keith Heinzerling’s attitude towards Dry January?
A. Doubtful. B. Subjective. C. Supportive. D. Dismissive.
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了“一月戒酒”这一健康活动的起源、益处及注意事项,并引用医学专家Keith Heinzerling医生的观点,阐明其核心意义在于将其视为一种改善与酒精关系的策略和健康生活方式的开端。
【8题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“The idea is to detox (戒掉) from holiday alcohol excess (过量) and start the new year on a healthier note.(其目的是摆脱节日期间的饮酒过量问题,并以更健康的状态开启新的一年)”可知,“一月戒酒”活动是指在一个月内尝试放弃酒精。故划线词意思是“放弃”。故选C项。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“It doesn’t take long to start to see positive changes, according to Dr. Heinzerling. “Within just a few days of not drinking, your blood pressure and heart rate will be lower, and you’ll have improved blood sugar regulation, better sleep, and less anxiety and depression,” he says. Another bonus: Quitting alcohol often makes other good habits — exercise and healthy eating, for example — easier to start and maintain, which in turn leads to even more health benefits.(海因策林格博士表示,很快就能明显感受到积极的变化。“仅仅几天不饮酒,你的血压和心率就会降低,血糖调节也会得到改善,睡眠质量会提高,焦虑和抑郁症状也会减轻,”他说道。还有一个好处是:戒酒往往会使其他良好的习惯——比如锻炼和健康饮食——更容易开始并坚持下去,从而带来更多的健康益处)”可知,第三段详细列举了戒酒的好处。故选D项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“For everyone — social drinkers and possible problem drinkers — one key to a positive Dry January is to see it not as a month of gritting (咬紧) your teeth and getting through it until you can drink again, but rather the start of a healthier lifestyle overall. What better way to start the new year?(对于每一个人——无论是适度饮酒者还是可能存在的酗酒者——“一月戒酒”计划成功的关键在于,不要将其仅仅视为一个忍着痛苦、坚持到底直至能够再次饮酒的月份,而应将其视为整体上开启更健康生活方式的开端。还有什么比这更好的开启新一年的方式呢?)”可知,该活动是一个开始,是通往更健康生活方式的垫脚石。故选B项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“It doesn’t take long to start to see positive changes, according to Dr. Heinzerling. “Within just a few days of not drinking, your blood pressure and heart rate will be lower, and you’ll have improved blood sugar regulation, better sleep, and less anxiety and depression,” he says.

For many years, scientists believed that all dinosaurs were cold-blooded. However, they also knew that dinosaurs eventually evolved into modern birds, like pigeons and chickens, which are warm-blooded. That meant that at least some dinosaurs must have become warm-blooded, but which ones and when that happened was unclear. Now a new study has found that dinosaurs became warm-blooded about 183 million years ago.
Cold-blooded, or ectothermic, animals rely on external sources of heat, like sunlight, to maintain their body temperature. Reptiles, amphibians, and most fish are cold-blooded. Warm-blooded, or endothermic, animals can generate their own body heat internally. Birds and mammals, including humans, are warm-blooded.
The new study was led by Alfio Alessandro Chiarenza of University College London, in the UK. He and his team analyzed about 1,000 dinosaur fossils from the Mesozoic Era (230 to 66 million years ago). They also looked at how the climate changed and different species of dinosaurs spread throughout the Earth during that period. About 183 million years ago, massive volcanic eruptions caused climate disruptions (紊乱) on Earth and led to the extinction of many plant and animal species. The team found that at about this time, two of the three main dinosaur groups — theropods and ornithischians — migrated (迁徙) to colder climates. Theropods include Tyrannosaurus rex, and ornithischians include Triceratops and Stegosaurus.
According to the study, the move to colder areas indicates that these dinosaurs had developed the ability to generate their own body heat. “If something is capable of living in very cold regions, it must have some way of heating up,” Chiarenza said. In contrast, sauropods (蜥脚类恐龙), the dinosaur group that includes the Brontosaurus, mostly stayed in dry, warm climates. As cold-blooded dinosaurs, they would have needed a warm environment.
The team believes that the ability to regulate their own body temperatures gave warm-blooded dinosaurs an advantage after the climate disruption. They would have been able to stay active, grow, and have babies, all of which would have helped them to survive.
12. Where do warm-blooded animals get heat from?
A. Sunlight. B. Themselves. C. Other animals. D. Volcanic eruption.
13 How did the author develop paragraph 4?
A. By making comparisons. B. By presenting statistics.
C. By giving a definition. D. By describing the research process.
14. What will the text probably talk about next?
A. The reasons why sauropods eventually went extinct.
B. The applications to predicting future climate changes.
C. Specific evidence of how warm-blooded dinosaurs lived.
D. A detailed description of the massive volcanic eruptions.
15. Which is probably the best title for the text?
A. The Dinosaur Migration Mystery B. Volcanoes: A Dinosaur Extinction Event
C. How Dinosaurs Adapted to Cold Climates D. Sauropods: The Last Cold-Blooded Giants
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. C 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了研究发现部分恐龙演化出恒温能力的过程与依据。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Warm-blooded, or endothermic, animals can generate their own body heat internally. Birds and mammals, including humans, are warm-blooded.(恒温动物,也叫内温动物,能够自行产生体温。鸟类和哺乳动物(包括人类在内)都属于恒温动物)”可知,恒温动物能够在体内自行产生热量。故选B项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“According to the study, the move to colder areas indicates that these dinosaurs had developed the ability to generate their own body heat. “If something is capable of living in very cold regions, it must have some way of heating up,” Chiarenza said. In contrast, sauropods (蜥脚类恐龙), the dinosaur group that includes the Brontosaurus, mostly stayed in dry, warm climates. As cold-blooded dinosaurs, they would have needed a warm environment.(研究表明,这些恐龙向寒冷区域迁徙,说明它们已进化出自主产热的能力。基亚伦扎指出:“一种生物若能在极寒地区生存,就必然具备一定的体温维持机制。”相比之下,包含雷龙在内的蜥脚类恐龙大多栖息于温暖干燥地带,作为冷血恐龙,它们离不开温暖的生存环境)”可知,作者运用了对比手法清晰地揭示了恒温与冷血恐龙的关键差异。故选A项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The team believes that the ability to regulate their own body temperatures gave warm-blooded dinosaurs an advantage after the climate disruption. They would have been able to stay active, grow, and have babies, all of which would have helped them to survive.(研究团队认为,在气候剧变之后,恒温恐龙具备的体温调节能力为它们带来了生存优势。这些恐龙能够始终保持活跃状态、持续生长发育并繁衍后代,而这些能力都助力它们存活了下来)”可知,下文最有可能进一步提供关于恒温恐龙具体生活方式或生理特征的证据。故选C项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“For many years, scientists believed that all dinosaurs were cold-blooded. However, they also knew that dinosaurs eventually evolved into modern birds, like pigeons and chickens, which are warm-blooded. That meant that at least some dinosaurs must have become warm-blooded, but which ones and when that happened was unclear. Now a new study has found that dinosaurs became warm-blooded about 183 million years ago.(多年来,科学家们一直认为所有恐龙都是冷血动物。但他们也发现,恐龙最终演化成了鸽子、鸡这类现代鸟类,而这些鸟类均为恒温动物。这意味着至少有部分恐龙必然已演化出恒温特性,但具体是哪些恐龙、以及这一转变发生在何时,此前一直无从知晓。如今一项新研究指出,恐龙大约在1.83亿年前演化出了恒温能力)”及全文内容可知,文章围绕一项新研究展开,介绍了部分恐龙为适应寒冷气候演化出恒温能力,从而在气候剧变中获得生存优势的内容。故C选项“恐龙如何适应寒冷气候”最能概括文章主旨,是文章的最佳标题。故选C项。

【16题详解】
前文提到“Some individuals might naturally be more emotionally intelligent than others (有些人可能天生情商就比别人高)”,而文章整体是在讲提高情商的方法,说明即使天生情商不高也能提升。选项D“However, high EI can be developed with time through regular practice (然而,通过定期练习,高情商是可以随着时间培养出来的)”,“However” 表示转折,引出了后文关于提高情商方法的内容。故选D。
【17题详解】
前文“The ability to recognize and name your own emotions is an important indicator of a high EI.(识别和说出自己情绪的能力是高情商的重要指标。)”强调识别和说出自己情绪的能力是高情商的重要指标,后文提到“This will help you practice the skill of identifying your feelings and connecting them to the events that triggered (触发) them (这将帮助你练习识别自己的情绪,并将它们与触发这些情绪的事件联系起来)”,说明这里要填一个能帮助实现情绪识别和关联事件的方法。选项F“Try starting a journal to keep track of your emotions and reflect on their causes (试着开始写日记,记录你的情绪并反思其原因)”,写日记可以记录情绪及触发事件,符合语境。故选F。
【18题详解】
此空位于段落开头,是段落主题句。后文提到“Self - control is one of the major components of emotional intelligence, and willpower is key to self - control (自我控制是情商的主要组成部分之一,而意志力是自我控制的关键)”,强调了意志力对情商中自我控制的重要性。选项A“Work on your willpower (锻炼你的意志力)”,准确概括了段落内容。故选A。
【19题详解】
前文“Instead of ignoring the physical signals of your emotions, start listening to them. Our minds and bodies are not separate, and they affect each other deeply. You can raise your EI by learning how to read physical clues that tell you into what emotions you’re feeling.(与其忽视你情绪的身体信号,不如开始倾听它们。我们的思想和身体并不是分开的,它们深深地影响着彼此。你可以通过学习如何解读身体线索来提高情商,这些线索能告诉你自己的情绪。)”说可以通过学习解读身体信号来提高情商,选项E“This essentially raises your self - awareness, which is a key component of EI (这实际上提高了你的自我意识,而自我意识是情商的关键组成部分)”,“This” 指代前文通过身体信号了解情绪的做法,说明这种做法能提高自我意识,进而提高情商,与前文逻辑连贯。故选E。
【20题详解】
前文“Truly listening to others while they speak helps you pick up on their emotions and respond to them, which is a key aspect of emotional intelligence.(当别人说话的时候,真正地倾听可以帮助你理解他们的情绪,并对他们做出反应,这是情商的一个关键方面。)”提到真正倾听他人说话有助于察觉他们的情绪并做出回应,是情商的关键方面,后文“Active listening skills include using engaged body language, summarizing and repeating what the other person said, asking thoughtful questions, and making sure you take equal turns talking.(积极倾听的技巧包括使用积极的肢体语言,总结和重复对方所说的话,提出深思熟虑的问题,并确保你们轮流说话。)”列举了积极倾听的技巧。选项C“Practice your active listening skills in order to be a good listener (练习你的积极倾听技巧,以便成为一个好的倾听者)”,既承接前文强调倾听的重要性,又引出后文积极倾听技巧的内容,所以选C。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了杨振宁先生的逝世,回顾他在理论物理领域的跨学科成就、1957年与李政道共获诺贝奖的里程碑,并强调其融合中西文化的学术视野与赤诚报国的精神。
【36题详解】
考查冠词。句意:世界著名物理学家、诺贝尔物理学奖得主、清华大学教授、清华大学高等研究院名誉院长杨振宁教授,于2025年10月18日因病在北京逝世,享年103岁。此处介绍杨振宁先生的身份,泛指“一位世界著名的物理学家”,应用不定冠词,且world-famous的发音以辅音音素开头,应用a。故填a。
【37题详解】
考查副词。句意:杨振宁1922年10月1日出生于安徽省合肥市,是一名中国理论物理学家,他在统计学、简单物理系统、基本粒子研究和材料科学领域取得显著突破,并通过数十年努力证明了自己是跨学科研究的天才。空处修饰动词advanced,副词remarkably符合题意,意为“显著地”。故填remarkably。
【38题详解】
考查代词。句意:杨振宁1922年10月1日出生于安徽省合肥市,是一名中国理论物理学家,他在统计学、简单物理系统、基本粒子研究和材料科学领域取得显著突破,并通过数十年努力证明了自己是跨学科研究的天才。空处作proved的宾语,此处“证明”这一动作的实施者和承受者为同一人,空处应用he的反身代词形式himself,意为“他自己”。故填himself。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:他与李政道获得1957年诺贝尔物理学奖,成为最早获得该荣誉的两位中国科学家。句子已有谓语,空处是非谓语,作winners的后置定语,honour“表彰,给……荣誉”和winners逻辑上是被动关系,因此用honour的过去分词形式。故填honoured。
【40题详解】
考查动词时态。句意:杨振宁以深受中华文化滋养为荣,在领取诺贝尔奖时曾发表演讲……空处作从句的谓语,结合全文主要用一般过去时可知,此处时态保持一致,同样叙述过去发生的事,pride“以……自豪”需用过去式的形式。故填prided。
【41题详解】
考查状语从句中的省略。句意:杨振宁以深受中华文化滋养为荣,在领取诺贝尔奖时曾发表演讲……此处用了when引导时间状语从句,从句无主语,为省略形式,对主语和be动词同时进行了省略,accept“领取”和被省略的主语Yang Zhenning之间是主动关系,accept应用现在分词形式。故填accepting。
【42题详解】
考查同位语从句。句意:我深刻意识到,从多重意义上说,我是中西文化共同孕育的产物——既有和谐,也有冲突。空处引导名词性从句作the fact的同位语,同位语从句的成分和语义均完整,应用连接词that作引导词。故填that。
【43题详解】
考查连词。句意:我深刻意识到,从多重意义上说,我是中西文化共同孕育的产物——既有和谐,也有冲突。“in harmony (和谐)”与“in conflict (冲突)”是并列关系,体现中西方文化对他影响的两个方面,需用并列连词and连接。故填and。
【44题详解】
考查介词。句意:我想说,我为自己的中国血统与背景感到自豪,正如我投身于现代科学一样。be devoted to是固定短语,意为“致力于,献身于”。故填to。
【45题详解】
考查名词。句意:鲜有人理解您对世界贡献的深度;您对祖国的赤诚纯净,世人皆知。空处作understand的宾语,名词depth符合题意,意为“深度”。故填depth。

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。
A simple “Puppies (小狗) for Sale” sign hung on the pet shop door, catching the eyes of passers-by, especially children. One afternoon, a boy around eight years old paused outside the shop. His clothes were worn but neat. After a moment’s hesitation, he pushed the door open, and a small bell announced his arrival.
The shop owner, a gentle-faced man, looked up from his work. “Can I help you, son?” he asked kindly.
“How much are the puppies?” the boy replied, his voice shaking with hope.
“Anywhere from thirty to fifty dollars,” the owner said.
The boy’s face fell. He dug into his pocket and pulled out a handful of crumpled (皱巴巴的) bills and coins. Carefully counting them, he said, “I have two dollars and thirty-seven cents. May I please see the puppies?” Touched by the boy’s sincerity, the owner smiled and made a soft sound with his mouth. A graceful Labrador named Lady emerged from the back, followed by five tiny, energetic puppies. But one puppy lagged far behind, limping (跛行) painfully with every step.
The boy’s eyes locked onto the struggling puppy. “What’s wrong with that one?” he asked, his voice filled with concern. “The animal doctor said he was born with improper bones,” the owner explained gently. “He’ll always limp and never run or play like the others.”
To the owner’s surprise, the boy’s face lit up. “That’s the puppy I want to buy!” he insisted. “You don’t want him,” the owner said, shaking his head. “If you like him, I’ll give him to you for free.”
The boy stood tall, his eyes burning with determination. “I don’t want him for free. He’s worth as much as the others. I’ll pay two dollars and thirty-seven cents now and fifty cents every month until he’s paid for.” The owner bent down, his voice softening. “But he won’t be able to run or play with you like a normal puppy.”
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150个左右;

In response, the boy rolled up his left pant leg, a metal brace supporting his thin leg.

Overcome with emotion, the shop owner felt tears spring to his eyes.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】例文
In response, the boy rolled up his left pant leg, a metal brace supporting his thin leg. The shop owner’s kind smile froze, then faded completely as the metal brace was revealed, strapped firmly around the boy’s thin, visibly disabled leg. A wave of understanding washed over the man, his eyes misting as he finally comprehended the depth of the connection he was witnessing. “I don’t run so well either,” the boy explained softly, his hand gently patting the puppy’s head. “That’s why he needs me — we’ll understand each other in a way others can’t.”
Overcome with emotion, the shop owner felt tears spring to his eyes. The carefully counted coins, the determined negotiation, the immediate connection to the imperfect puppy — it all clicked into place with heartbreaking clarity. He wasn’t looking at a pitying child and a broken dog. He was witnessing two kindred spirits finding one another. With a softened heart and newfound respect shining in his eyes, he gently placed the limping puppy into the boy’s waiting arms. In that quiet moment, a bond was shaped, not of pity, but of profound shared understanding — a promise that neither would have to face the world alone.
【解析】
