During the pandemic (流行病), he watched the show, which aroused his interest in chess. From Western Sydney, Reyaansh, a FIDE master with a 2346 classical rating, has excited Australia’s chess world. Australian Chess Federation’s Paul Power said that Reyaansh shows great promise at a young age, adding that Australia has only 10 Grandmasters (GMs) worldwide and that though it’s hard to predict, Reyaansh is on the right way to possibly get a GM title, which would be a great honor for Australia. Reyaansh wants to do more than become a Grandmaster — he dreams of being world champion. Though it’s a huge goal, he focuses on improving step by step. As a Year 6 student, he trains five hours each day and eight hours on weekends. His school supports his chess by giving less homework, but he still puts his studies first. He practices tactics and openings strictly, looking for mistakes in his games, and has face-to-face classes with Polish GM Jacek Stopa at the Sydney Chess Academy. Reyaansh said that Stopa teaches him the careful preparation needed for the GM level and that the puzzles he gives are very hard, making him tired after each class. Reyaansh has already beaten GMs, including Australian player Darryl Johansen in Melbourne. His first GM win happened when his opponent blundered in a game that was going to end in a draw. He has played in countries like Norway and Singapore and balances chess with reading books by JK Rowling and Dog Man comics. When talking about what makes chess special, Reyaansh pointed out the game’s intensity, saying that even a game played perfectly can be lost with one mistake. Mr. Power saw more young players joining in, saying the lively interest among primary students is refreshing. Reyaansh’s main advice for others is to find love for the game, because without it, one would get bored. 4. What drew Reyaansh’s interest in chess? A. A pandemic-related activity. B. A fictional character’s story. C. A family tradition. D. A local chess competition. 5. What excited Australia’s chess world? A. Reyaansh’s high rating. B. Reyaansh’s love for chess. C. Reyaansh’s young age D. Reyaansh’s victory in Melbourne. 6. What can we infer about Reyaansh from paragraph 3? A. He prioritizes chess over schoolwork. B. He trains more on weekdays than weekends. C. He follows a strict daily routine. D. He gets tired of long-hour practice. 7 What does the underlined word “blundered” in paragraph 5 mean? A. Made a mistake. B. Gave up easily. C. Showed confidence. D. Got special permits. C Billions of years ago, water flowed on the surface of Mars. But scientists have an incomplete picture of how the Red Planet’s water cycle worked. That could soon change after two graduate students at The University of Texas at Austin filled a large gap in knowledge about Mars’ water cycle — specifically, the part between surface water and groundwater. Students Mohammad Afzal Shadab and Eric Hiatt developed a computer model that calculates how long it took for water on early Mars to percolate from the surface down to the aquifer (含水层), which is thought to have been about a mile underground. They found that it took anywhere from 50 to 200 years. On Earth, where the water table in most places is much closer to the surface, the same process typically takes just a few days. The researchers also determined that the amount of water flowing slowly between surface and aquifer could have been enough to cover Mars with at least 300 feet of water. This was potentially a significant portion of the planet’s total available water. The research helps complete scientists’ understanding of the water cycle on early Mars, said Shadab. Shadab, the lead author of the study, stated that the goal is to incorporate this into an integrated model illustrating how water and land co-evolved over millions of years to reach their current state. This approach, he explained, would bring researchers closer to solving the mystery of what became of Mars’ water. Currently, Mars is predominantly arid, at least on its surface. However, between 3 and 4 billion years ago, oceans, lakes, and rivers shaped valleys through the planet’s mountains and craters. Ultimately, Mars’ water mostly locked in the crust (地壳) or was lost to space. The new findings add to an alternative picture; early Mars had little water recycling like Earth. “Once water got into the ground on Mars, it was as good as gone,” said coauthor Hiatt. The water leaking slowly into the crust wasn’t lost to space, which could help future explorers find buried water resources for a Mars settlement. 8. What do we know about early Mars’ water cycle? A. It recycled water like Earth. B. Groundwater was. easily lost. C. Mars never had liquid water. D. Surface-aquifer flow was slower than Earth’s. 9. What did the study imply about Mars’ early water? A. It was less than that on Earth. B. It played a role in land formation. C. It existed mainly in the form of ice. D. It failed to shape the planet’s surface. 10. What might future explorers do based on the findings? A. Reduce space missions. B. Build surface settlements. C. Seek underground water. D. Study Earth’s water cycle. 11. Which of the following can be the best title? A. Mars: A Dry Planet’s Life Mystery B. Groundwater: Key to Mars’ Exploration C. Earth vs. Mars: Water Cycle Differences D. New Model: Unlocking Mars’ Water Cycle D New research shows that solar panels in Colorado’s grasslands may reduce water stress, improve soil moisture levels, and — particularly during dry years — increase plant growth by about 20% or more compared to open fields. This growth boost, which scientists say comes from reduced evaporation and enhanced water storage, can reach up to 90% in some dry-year cases on the east side of panels. The findings outline potential benefits and challenges of photovoltaic (PV) arrays in grassland ecosystems. The work is particularly relevant to drought in the arid West and future climate change, as rising temperatures are projected to worsen water stress and threaten grassland health long-term. While solar power systems are a key source of renewable energy, they reduce sunlight for plant growth, potentially impacting wildlife habitat, carbon. storage capacity, and forage production for livestock. The study, based on four years of data from an agrivoltaics facility in Longmont, is the first to field-test how co-locating solar and grasslands alters ecosystem dynamics at a regional scale. The team found plants beneath and around solar systems benefited from partial shading and water collected on panels, aiding survival in harsh summers. During dry years, grass growth on the east side of panels was up to 90% more productive than neighboring sites, likely due to morning sunlight exposure combined with reduced midday heat stress. In wet and normal years. this response lessened but still showed higher growth than control areas. Cornell postdoc Matthew Sturchio and CSU’s Alan Knapp say the results demonstrate synergies (协同作用) between solar energy and grassland use for renewable power and ecosystem stability. “This is the first analysis showing pronounced benefits with increasing aridity,” Sturchio notes, adding that gains could grow significantly if panels were designed to maximize environmental benefits through adjustable angle or spacing. Knapp plans to study C4 grasses in Colorado plains, which are more water-limited and adapted to high temperatures. The team thinks solar panels can restore grassland ecosystems by promoting diverse plant communities, with testing now underway — a project aiming to integrate solar energy with sustainable grazing practices. 12. What is the main idea of paragraph 3? A. The harm of solar power systems. B. The importance of wildlife habitat. C. The challenges of grassland ecosystems. D. The effects of solar panels on grasslands. 13. What is the team’s attitude to solar panels? A. Neutral. B. Positive. C. Negative. D. Doubtful. 14. How can the environmental benefits of solar panels be maximized? A. By reducing panel numbers. B. By moving panels to deserts. C. By covering panels with grass. D. By adjusting panel angle or spacing. 15. Why does the author mention C4 grasses? A. To show their importance. B. To introduce a new study. C. To explain the adaptability of grasslands. D. To stress plant growth limitations in dry conditions. 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。 You may have caught yourself talking to yourself, whether it’s reminding yourself about tasks or processing your emotions out loud.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了11岁国际象棋天才Reyaansh Chakrabarty受剧集启发爱上象棋，坚持刻苦训练、立志冲击世界冠军的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“For 11-year-old chess talent Reyaansh Chakrabarty, the Netflix show The Queen’s Gambit (《后翼弃兵》) started his love for chess. During the pandemic (流行病), he watched the show, which aroused his interest in chess.(对于11岁的国际象棋天才Reyaansh Chakrabarty而言，网飞剧集《后翼弃兵》点燃了他对国际象棋的热爱。疫情期间，他观看了这部剧集，从此便对国际象棋产生了浓厚的兴趣。)”可知，是网飞剧集《后翼弃兵》唤起了Reyaansh Chakrabarty对国际象棋的兴趣，这部剧集讲述的是虚构人物的故事。即虚构人物的故事引起了Reyaansh对国际象棋的兴趣。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“From Western Sydney, Reyaansh, a FIDE master with a 2346 classical rating, has excited Australia’s chess world.(来自悉尼西部的Reyaansh，是国际棋联大师，古典等级分高达2346分，早已惊艳了澳大利亚国际象棋界。)”可知，Reyaansh Chakrabarty以国际棋联大师的身份和2346的古典等级分，惊艳了澳大利亚国际象棋界。故选A。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Reyaansh wants to do more than become a Grandmaster — he dreams of being world champion. Though it’s a huge goal, he focuses on improving step by step. As a Year 6 student, he trains five hours each day and eight hours on weekends. His school supports his chess by giving less homework, but he still puts his studies first.(Reyaansh的目标不止于成为特级大师，他梦想着问鼎世界冠军。尽管这是一个宏伟的目标，但他专注于脚踏实地、循序渐进地提升自我。作为一名六年级学生，他每天坚持训练五小时，周末的训练时长更是达到八小时。学校为了支持他的国际象棋之路，特意为他减少了家庭作业量，但他始终将学业放在首位。)”可知，Reyaansh有着规律且固定的训练时长安排，能看出他遵循严格的日常作息。故选C。 【7题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线单词所在语境“His first GM win happened when his opponent blundered in a game that was going to end in a draw.(他的首次特级大师胜绩，源于对手在一场本将以平局收场的对局中……。)”可知，这场比赛原本即将以平局收场，正是因为对手出现了失误，他才拿下了对阵特级大师的首胜。由此推断“blundered”的意思是犯错误。选项A“make a mistake”，意为“犯错误”，与此相符。故选A。 C Billions of years ago, water flowed on the surface of Mars. But scientists have an incomplete picture of how the Red Planet’s water cycle worked. That could soon change after two graduate students at The University of Texas at Austin filled a large gap in knowledge about Mars’ water cycle — specifically, the part between surface water and groundwater. Students Mohammad Afzal Shadab and Eric Hiatt developed a computer model that calculates how long it took for water on early Mars to percolate from the surface down to the aquifer (含水层), which is thought to have been about a mile underground. They found that it took anywhere from 50 to 200 years. On Earth, where the water table in most places is much closer to the surface, the same process typically takes just a few days. The researchers also determined that the amount of water flowing slowly between surface and aquifer could have been enough to cover Mars with at least 300 feet of water. This was potentially a significant portion of the planet’s total available water. The research helps complete scientists’ understanding of the water cycle on early Mars, said Shadab. Shadab, the lead author of the study, stated that the goal is to incorporate this into an integrated model illustrating how water and land co-evolved over millions of years to reach their current state. This approach, he explained, would bring researchers closer to solving the mystery of what became of Mars’ water. Currently, Mars is predominantly arid, at least on its surface. However, between 3 and 4 billion years ago, oceans, lakes, and rivers shaped valleys through the planet’s mountains and craters. Ultimately, Mars’ water mostly locked in the crust (地壳) or was lost to space. The new findings add to an alternative picture; early Mars had little water recycling like Earth. “Once water got into the ground on Mars, it was as good as gone,” said coauthor Hiatt. The water leaking slowly into the crust wasn’t lost to space, which could help future explorers find buried water resources for a Mars settlement. 8. What do we know about early Mars’ water cycle? A. It recycled water like Earth. B. Groundwater was. easily lost. C. Mars never had liquid water. D. Surface-aquifer flow was slower than Earth’s. 9. What did the study imply about Mars’ early water? A. It was less than that on Earth. B. It played a role in land formation. C. It existed mainly in the form of ice. D. It failed to shape the planet’s surface. 10. What might future explorers do based on the findings? A. Reduce space missions. B. Build surface settlements. C. Seek underground water. D. Study Earth’s water cycle. 11. Which of the following can be the best title? A. Mars: A Dry Planet’s Life Mystery B. Groundwater: Key to Mars’ Exploration C. Earth vs. Mars: Water Cycle Differences D. New Model: Unlocking Mars’ Water Cycle 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章核心是德克萨斯大学学生通过计算机模型填补了火星水循环中“地表水—地下水”环节的空白，帮助完善对早期火星水循环的理解。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Students Mohammad Afzal Shadab and Eric Hiatt developed a computer model that calculates how long it took for water on early Mars to percolate from the surface down to the aquifer (含水层), which is thought to have been about a mile underground. They found that it took anywhere from 50 to 200 years. On Earth, where the water table in most places is much closer to the surface, the same process typically takes just a few days.(学生穆罕默德·阿夫扎尔·沙达布和埃里克·希亚特开发了一个计算机模型，用于计算早期火星上的水从地表渗透到含水层所需的时间——据信该含水层位于地下约一英里处。他们发现，这个过程需要50到200年不等。而在地球上，由于大多数地方的地下水位离地表近得多，同样的过程通常只需几天时间。)”可知，火星上地表到含水层的水流速度比地球上慢。故选D项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段的句子“Currently, Mars is predominantly arid, at least on its surface. However, between 3 and 4 billion years ago, oceans, lakes, and rivers shaped valleys through the planet’s mountains and craters.(目前，火星主要是干旱的，至少其表面是如此。然而，在30亿到40亿年前，海洋、湖泊和河流在这颗行星的山脉与陨石坑之间塑造出了山谷。)”可知，早期水体塑造了火星的山谷地形，说明其参与了地貌形成。故选B项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段的句子“The water leaking slowly into the crust wasn’t lost to space, which could help future explorers find buried water resources for a Mars settlement.(缓慢渗入地壳的水并未散失到太空中，这可能帮助未来的探索者为火星定居点找到埋藏的水资源。)”可知，研究发现暗示地下水可能存在于地壳中，未来探索者可据此寻找地下水源。故选C项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，特别是第一段“Billions of years ago, water flowed on the surface of Mars. But scientists have an incomplete picture of how the Red Planet’s water cycle worked. That could soon change after two graduate students at The University of Texas at Austin filled a large gap in knowledge about Mars’ water cycle—specifically, the part between surface water and groundwater.(数十亿年前，火星表面曾有水流淌。但科学家对这颗红色星球的水循环机制尚未完全了解。不过，得克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校的两名研究生填补了火星水循环知识的一大空白——具体来说，是地表水与地下水之间的环节——这种情况可能很快就会改变。)”可知，文章核心是德克萨斯大学学生通过计算机模型填补了火星水循环中“地表水—地下水”环节的空白，帮助完善对早期火星水循环的理解。所以用D项“New Model: Unlocking Mars’ Water Cycle(新模型：解锁火星的水循环)”作为本文的题目，与文章主题相符合。故选D项。 D New research shows that solar panels in Colorado’s grasslands may reduce water stress, improve soil moisture levels, and — particularly during dry years — increase plant growth by about 20% or more compared to open fields. This growth boost, which scientists say comes from reduced evaporation and enhanced water storage, can reach up to 90% in some dry-year cases on the east side of panels. The findings outline potential benefits and challenges of photovoltaic (PV) arrays in grassland ecosystems. The work is particularly relevant to drought in the arid West and future climate change, as rising temperatures are projected to worsen water stress and threaten grassland health long-term. While solar power systems are a key source of renewable energy, they reduce sunlight for plant growth, potentially impacting wildlife habitat, carbon. storage capacity, and forage production for livestock. The study, based on four years of data from an agrivoltaics facility in Longmont, is the first to field-test how co-locating solar and grasslands alters ecosystem dynamics at a regional scale. The team found plants beneath and around solar systems benefited from partial shading and water collected on panels, aiding survival in harsh summers. During dry years, grass growth on the east side of panels was up to 90% more productive than neighboring sites, likely due to morning sunlight exposure combined with reduced midday heat stress. In wet and normal years. this response lessened but still showed higher growth than control areas. Cornell postdoc Matthew Sturchio and CSU’s Alan Knapp say the results demonstrate synergies (协同作用) between solar energy and grassland use for renewable power and ecosystem stability. “This is the first analysis showing pronounced benefits with increasing aridity,” Sturchio notes, adding that gains could grow significantly if panels were designed to maximize environmental benefits through adjustable angle or spacing. Knapp plans to study C4 grasses in Colorado plains, which are more water-limited and adapted to high temperatures. The team thinks solar panels can restore grassland ecosystems by promoting diverse plant communities, with testing now underway — a project aiming to integrate solar energy with sustainable grazing practices. 12. What is the main idea of paragraph 3? A. The harm of solar power systems. B. The importance of wildlife habitat. C. The challenges of grassland ecosystems. D. The effects of solar panels on grasslands. 13. What is the team’s attitude to solar panels? A. Neutral. B. Positive. C. Negative. D. Doubtful. 14. How can the environmental benefits of solar panels be maximized? A By reducing panel numbers. B. By moving panels to deserts. C. By covering panels with grass. D. By adjusting panel angle or spacing. 15. Why does the author mention C4 grasses? A. To show their importance. B. To introduce a new study. C To explain the adaptability of grasslands. D. To stress plant growth limitations in dry conditions. 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. D 15.
