【原文】W: Lots of people carrying bags full of plastic bottles and cups queue at a busy bus station in the Indonesian city of Surabaya. The program has been a hit. A bus ride with unlimited stops costs three large bottles, five medium bottles, or ten plastic cups, but they must be cleaned and kept in shape. There has been a good response from the public. Paying with plastic is one of the things that have made people enthusiastic, because up until now plastic waste was just seen as useless. The program aims not only to cut waste but also to reduce the heavy traffic by encouraging people to take buses. At present, there are twenty near-new buses, each with an experienced driver, recycling bins, and ticket officers who collect any leftover bottles. It’s reported that about six tons of plastic rubbish are collected from passengers each month before being sold to recycling companies.

A. Mini forests have emerged all over the world.
B. The advantages of mini forests.
C. The reason why mini forests are popular worldwide.
【答案】13. C 14. B 15. A 16. A
【解析】
【原文】M: As traditional forests are destroyed, tiny forests — some as small as a tennis court, have sprung up in cities around the world. They are increasing biological diversity and fighting climate change. These mini forests are inspired by Akira Miyawaki, a botanist or plant scientist from Japan, who pioneered a unique way of growing forests. It involves planting a wide variety of native trees close together and leaving them to grow into a dense forest. Miyawaki has planted more than one thousand of these in Japan and other countries. The Miyawaki method is said to grow trees ten times faster than other methods. That’s according to a recent study by Wageningen University in the Netherlands. The study says the diversity of tree species attracts a greater variety of insects and amphibians looking for food and shelter. The Miyawaki method has become popular in Europe. Boomforest is an organization in Paris, France. In November, it planted two forests using Japanese botanist’s method. The group also taught people how they can grow their own mini forests. In the Netherlands, IVN Nature Education has helped communities build 100 forests using the Miyawaki method. The group also educates kids about tiny forests. Simon Lewis is a professor of global change science at University College London in England. He explains that it’s important to grow trees because they absorb carbon dioxide.

【原文】 W: Hey, April is almost here. Time for Bike Month at Davis High. Skip the bus and ride your bike to school instead. It’s healthier and much more fun when you ride with your schoolmates. Many of our staff members already ride their bikes to work regularly, so you’ll probably see them on the road to school. Mr. Smith in the science department is a frequent bike traveler. He lives ten miles from the school but always makes it here to teach the early class at seven thirty. He also competes in bike races on the weekend. Miss Green’s pink bike is always locked up at the front of the school by the time Principal Dave arrives. During this bike month, maybe some of you will be inspired to use your bikes more often. We’ll have competitions with prizes in late April: who bikes the farthest, who bikes the most. There will be organized bike parties on Fridays too. We ride together on the city’s streets. It’s a lot of fun, with a pizza dinner waiting at the end. So, everyone, join us for Bike Month right away.
第二部分 阅读理解(共两节,满分 50 分)

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的 A 、B 、C 和 D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Towering peaks, sparkling lakes, and rarely exporting wine are a few reasons to make Switzerland your next vacation destination. Here are some places for you to explore.
Zermatt
Zermatt has been car-free for decades to prevent pollution. It’s an all-season adventure-lovers’ playground attracting visitors from around the globe. In the summer months, ski teams train at Matterhorn Glacier Paradise, Europe’s largest and highest ski region. In addition to access to extensive outdoor activities, there are plenty of relaxing events like wandering along Zermatt’s Bahnhofstrasse.
Saas-Fee
You’ll find Switzerland’s highest mountain, the Dom, climbing above Saas-Fee, which has always been free of cars. During the warmer months, visitors travel on the designed-for-wandering streets, and hikers walk with pieces of carrot stuffed in their pockets. Take the cable car (缆车) to the Mittelallalin and visit the world’s highest revolving (旋转) restaurant, Allalin, which turns 360°every hour.
Mürren
Located above the Lauterbrunnen valley, tiny car-free Mürren attracts outdoor enthusiasts — it’s home to Switzerland’s first ski school — as well as fans of James Bond. Scenes from the film On Her Majesty’s Secret Service were filmed at the revolving restaurant on the Schilthorn high above Mürren. Spy World, an interactive exhibition about the 007 movie, and the Skyline View platform are a few other attractions.
Rigi
Located in central Switzerland, near Lake Lucerne and Lake Zug, Rigi has been attracting visitors since the 18th century. Known as the “Queen of the Mountains”, Rigi has hosted Queen Victoria, painter William Turner, and Mark Twain. The Blue Rigi, Sunrise painted by William Turner, was acquired by the Tate Gallery. Cars are not allowed on the mountain. Visitors usually reach there by train or cable car.
21. What can visitors do in Saas-Fee?
A. Enjoy skiing all year round. B. View the scenery on a platform.
C. Admire paintings by William Turner. D. Dine in the highest revolving restaurant.
22. Which destination will probably attract a film enthusiast?
A. Zermatt. B. Saas-Fee. C. Mürren. D. Rigi.
23. What do the four regions have in common?
A. They are car-free zones. B. They provide interactive events.
C. They are friendly to hikers. D. They host famous celebrities.
【答案】21. D 22. C 23. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了瑞士四个适合度假的无车地区及其特色活动。
【21题详解】
细节理解题。根据Saas-Fee部分中“Take the cable car (缆车) to the Mittelallalin and visit the world’s highest revolving (旋转) restaurant, Allalin, which turns 360°every hour. (乘坐缆车前往米特拉拉灵山,参观世界上最高的旋转餐厅Allalin,该餐厅每小时旋转360度)可知,游客可以在Saas-Fee的最高旋转餐厅用餐。故选D。
【22题详解】
推理判断题。根据Mürren部分中“Scenes from the film On Her Majesty’s Secret Service were filmed at the revolving restaurant on the Schilthorn high above Mürren. Spy World, an interactive exhibition about the 007 movie, and the Skyline View platform are a few other attractions. (电影《女王密使》中的场景是在Mürren上方的Schilthorn旋转餐厅拍摄的。Spy World是一个关于007电影的互动展览,Skyline View平台是其他一些景点)”可知,Mürren有与电影相关的景点和展览,因此可能会吸引电影爱好者。故选C。
【23题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章对四个地区的描述,第二段中“Zermatt has been car-free for decades to prevent pollution. (几十年来一直禁止汽车通行,以防止污染)”、第三段中“You’ll find Switzerland’s highest mountain, the Dom, climbing above Saas-Fee, which has always been free of cars. (你会发现瑞士最高的山峰 —— 多姆峰,耸立在Saas-Fee之上,而Saas-Fee一直禁止汽车通行)”、第四段中“Located above the Lauterbrunnen valley, tiny car-free Mürren attracts outdoor enthusiasts — it’s home to Switzerland’s first ski school—as well as fans of James Bond. (Mürren坐落于Lauterbrunnen山谷之上,小巧玲珑且禁止车辆通行,这里不仅是瑞士第一所滑雪学校的所在地,吸引着众多户外爱好者,还深受詹姆斯・邦德 (007) 粉丝的喜爱)”和最后一段中“Cars are not allowed on the mountain. (山上不允许汽车通行)”可知,这四个地区的共同点都是无车区。故选A。
B
Earth is filled with an amazing variety of creatures and an artist has put its diversity on display like never before. Anton Thomas of New Zealand has created a hand-drawn map of the entire planet that features animals in their natural habitats.
His journey began in childhood, drawing imaginary worlds on his bedroom walls in Nelson. Thomas, as a child, longed for a world where nature ruled dominant. His map represents the “ideal planet that I wanted,” Thomas said. “I would see all the houses, and imagine what it was like before any humans showed up.” After years working as a chef and musician, a chance request to decorate an old fridge in Montreal relighted his passion for cartography (制图学), launching an extraordinary career.
Thomas’s first major project, a massive map of North America, consumed five years of his life. Working evenings after teaching jobs, he frequently redrew sections as his skills improved. “These represent real homes, not abstract (抽象的) art,” he stresses, explaining his thorough approach. The completed work earned recognition from National Geographic and The New York Times. Retired cartographer Tom Patterson praises its uniqueness: no digital tools were used, just pencil and paper.
During the 2020 lockdowns, Thomas started his masterpiece: “Wild World.” Three years, approximately 2,602 working hours and 1,642 animal species later, “Wild World” is a hand-drawn map of our planet that both inspires and celebrates wonder. For three years, he carefully drew animals in their natural habitats using colored pencils and a magnifying glass (放大镜). The project, originally planned for six months, became an all-consuming labor of love that he considers his finest work.
Now a full-time artist, Thomas continues to push boundaries in hand-drawn cartography. From elementary schools to Stanford University, he shares his unique vision. “Every map tells two stories,” he says, “the geography we see and the passion that brings it to life.”
24. What inspired Thomas to return to mapmaking?
A. An opportunity to decorate a fridge.
B. An offer from National Geographic.
C. A journey in his childhood.
D. His interest in cartography.
25. How did Thomas work on his first project?
A. He worked mainly during the day.
B He kept working on it to improve.
C. He used digital tools to save time.
D. He followed others’ instructions.
26. Which statement best describes Thomas and his map “Wild World”?
A. He sees it as a rough draft for bigger ideas.
B. He feels proud and emotionally connected to it.
C. He regrets spending too much time on it.
D. He believes it deserves more public attention.
27. What does Thomas’s experience show?
A. Education inspires creativity. B. Art shows truth.
C. Passion fuels achievement. D. Tools limit art.
【答案】24. A 25. B 26. B 27. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了新西兰艺术家安东·托马斯凭借手绘地图展示地球生物多样性的故事。他从小就对自然世界充满向往,在一次偶然的机会下重拾对制图学的热情,最终创作了手绘地图《野生世界》,并成为全职艺术家分享自己的独特视角。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“After years working as a chef and musician, a chance request to decorate an old fridge in Montreal relighted his passion for cartography (制图学), launching an extraordinary career. (在做了多年的厨师和音乐家之后,一次偶然的机会,他受邀装饰蒙特利尔的一台旧冰箱,这重新点燃了他对制图学的热情,开启了一段非凡的职业生涯)”可知,一次装饰旧冰箱的偶然机会重新点燃了托马斯对制图学的热情,促使他回归地图绘制。故选A项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Working evenings after teaching jobs, he frequently redrew sections as his skills improved. (在教书工作结束后的晚上,随着技艺的提高,他经常重新绘制一些部分)”可知,托马斯不断改进完善他的第一个项目。故选B项。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“The project, originally planned for six months, became an all-consuming labor of love that he considers his finest work. (这个项目原本计划为期六个月,后来却成了一项让他全身心投入的热爱之事,他认为这是自己最出色的作品)”可知,《野生世界》这个项目虽然远超原计划时间,却成为他全身心投入的热爱之作,并且他认为这是自己最出色的作品,由此可推知他对这幅地图感到自豪且情感上与之紧密相连。故选B项。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。纵览全文,结合最后一段“Now a full-time artist, Thomas continues to push boundaries in hand-drawn cartography. From elementary schools to Stanford University, he shares his unique vision. “Every map tells two stories,” he says, “the geography we see and the passion that brings it to life.” (如今身为一名全职艺术家,托马斯不断在手工绘制地图领域开拓边界。从小学到斯坦福大学,他都在分享自己独特的视角。“每一幅地图都讲述着两个故事,”他说,“我们看到的地理风貌,以及赋予其生命力的那份热情。”)”可知,文章主要讲述了托马斯从小就对自然世界有向往,后来因偶然机会重拾对制图的热情,之后投入大量时间和精力创作手绘地图,最终成为全职艺术家。他的经历体现了热情对成就的推动作用。因此,C项“Passion fuels achievement (热情推动成就)”符合文意。故选C项。
C
Every superhero, no matter how small, needs a cape. That was Robyn Rosenberger’s motivation when she started sewing superhero capes for kids with cancer, heart defects, and other serious diseases. It all began when she was making a cape as a birthday present for her nephew. Rosenberger heard of a girl named Brenna who was battling a potentially deadly skin condition called harlequin ichthyosis. Anyone suffering from what she was going through had to be tough. “I had an aha moment (顿悟),” Rosenberger says. “Brenna was a superhero! She needed a cape.” So Rosenberger sent her one, and Brenna’s mother was delighted.
Rosenberger found ten more kids online and sent out ten more capes. Before long, she quit her job at a software company to dedicate herself full time to tinysuperheroes.com, a website where people can buy hand-made capes for brave kids facing illness and disability.
Since 2013, Rosenberger and her small paid staff have sent more than 12,000 handmade capes to kids in all 50 states and 15 other countries. The capes come in pink, blue, purple, or red and can be decorated with the child’s initials or specialized patches, including a heart, a rocket, or a lightning bolt. One recipient was eight-month-old Gabe, who was born with a cleft palate (腭裂), which causes distinct facial features. Rosenberger sent him a red cape with a bright yellow G in the center. It was a hit.
Gabe is now a fixture on the company’s social media posts. “The Tiny Superhero community has been a wonderful connection to have,” says Gabe’s mom, Kate Glocke. In fact, two years later, “We still bring Gabe’s cape with us to every hospital appointment.”
28. Rosenberger started making capes because she _______.
A. wanted to set a good example to sick kids
B. hoped to encourage kids with serious diseases
C. aimed to cure the kids with serious diseases
D. made an attempt to make money online
29 Which word can best describe Rosenberger?
A. Optimistic. B. Independent.
C. Diligent. D. Caring.
30. Which of the following capes are NOT available?
A. Purple capes with the child’s initials.
B. Pink capes with the child’s photo.
C. Red capes with a heart-shaped patch.
D. Blue capes with a patch shaped like a rocket.
31. In which column of the newspaper are you likely to read the story?
A. Cover Story. B. Book Review.
C. Medical Research. D. Campus Life.
【答案】28. B 29. D 30. B 31. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了主人公Robyn Rosenberger乐于为残疾和生病的孩子送手工披风鼓励他们抗击病魔的故事,她辞职全身心投入到这项事业中并已给美国各州以及世界上的其他15个国家的孩子送去一万多个披风。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的“Every superhero, no matter how small, needs a cape. That was Robyn Rosenberger’s motivation when she started sewing superhero capes for kids with cancer, heart defects, and other serious diseases.(每个超级英雄,无论多小,都需要披风。这就是Robyn Rosenberger的动机,当时她开始为患有癌症,心脏病和其他严重疾病的孩子缝制超级英雄披风)”可知,Rosenberger开始做披风是因为她要鼓励患有严重疾病的孩子。故选B。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。optimistic(乐观的),independent(独立的),diligent(勤奋的),caring(富有爱心的)。由第1小题的分析可知,Rosenberger 乐于为残疾和生病的孩子送手工披风鼓励他们抗击病魔,因此使用caring(富有爱心的)来描述她最合适。故选D。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的“The capes come in pink, blue, purple, or red and can be decorated with the child’s initials or specialized patches, including a heart, a rocket, or a lightning bolt.(披风有粉红色,蓝色,紫色或红色,可以用孩子的姓名缩写或特殊补丁装饰,包括心的样子,火箭或闪电)”可知,不存在带有孩子照片的粉红色披风。故选B。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。通览全文,尤其是第一段中的“Every superhero, no matter how small, needs a cape. That was Robyn Rosenberger’s motivation when she started sewing superhero capes for kids with cancer, heart defects, and other serious diseases. It all began when she was making a cape as a birthday present for her nephew. Rosenberger heard of a girl named Brenna who was battling a potentially deadly skin condition called harlequin ichthyosis. Anyone suffering from what she was going through had to be tough. “I had an aha moment ,” Rosenberger says. “Brenna was a superhero! She needed a cape.” So Rosenberger sent her one, and Brenna’s mother was delighted.(每个超级英雄,无论多小,都需要披风。这就是Robyn Rosenberger的动机,当时她开始为患有癌症,心脏病和其他严重疾病的孩子缝制超级英雄披风。这一切都始于她为自己的侄子做披风作为生日礼物的时候。Rosenberger听说有一个名为Brenna的女孩正在与一种可能致命的皮肤病作斗争,这种疾病被称为丑角鱼鳞病。任何遭受她正在经历的痛苦的人都必须坚强。Rosenberger说:“我觉得Brenna是一个超级英雄!她需要一件披风”。Rosenberger送给她一件,Brenna的母亲很高兴)”可知,文章讲述了Rosenberger给一个患病的小孩送披风鼓励他勇敢面对病魔的故事。这样的内容既不属于医学研究,也不属于书评和校园生活类的范畴,可以是书刊的封面故事。故选A。
D
Rare is the CEO who praises the virtues of a lie- in. According to one survey, two- thirds of the CEOs of large American companies are up by 6 o’ clock; for average Americans the share is less than one in three. For future corporate leaders, the message seems clear: you snooze (打盹), you lose.
Bartleby has no such ambitions. But he’s experimented with early starts, and found they not only bring the sense of satisfaction that comes from arriving before your editor. Inboxes can be cleared and tricky problems solved before the flood of emails and meetings, leaving you feeling well prepared for the day ahead.
Early birds are certainly held in higher regard. Rolling into the office late is unacceptable in most workplaces. A study published in 2022 found night owls (猫头鹰) were perceived by respondents as being “lazy”, “undisciplined” and “immature”.
Rising early is not, though, all upside. Those ready to receive work when the boss arrives may be given more of it. If the early bird gets the worm, the clever worm stays in bed. Urgent tasks often come up during the day, meaning early arrivals may end up working just as late as other colleagues.
Waking before sun rise also risks turning you into a bore. Some early risers cannot resist describing how much they get done while night owls hit the snooze button. Others go home early rather than socialize. Night owls, by contrast, let loose. In the eyes of many, late nights are the preserve of youth, while early mornings are seen as for the elderly.
Efforts to change your circadian (昼夜节律的) rhythm are likely to end in disappointment, as it is largely a product of genes. Perhaps the best advice is to stop worrying about your body clock. Most people are neither early birds nor night owls, but in between, struggling both in the morning and late evening. That is why most offices operate between 9 and 5— and why they ought to have break rooms.
32. Why does the writer mention the survey in paragraph 1?
A. To illustrate the harmful effects of snoozing.
B. To praise the healthy sleeping habit of the CEOs.
C. To tell the difference between CEOs and average workers.
D. To show the possible link between early rising and success.
33. What does paragraph 2 focus on?
A. The feelings of early risers. B. The challenges on a workday.
C. The benefits of getting up early. D. The preparations before work.
34. What can be a downside of being an early bird?
A. Poor public image. B. Increased workload.
C. Hug e social pressure. D. Decreased productivity.
35. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. Why Do CEOs Prefer Early Mornings?
B. How Can We Change Our Body Clock?
C. What Is the Science Behind Early Rising?
D. Is It Better to Be an Early Bird or a Night Owl?
【答案】32. D 33. C 34. B 35. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是议论文。文章围绕“早起”的话题展开,讨论了早起的利弊,并从不同角度分析了早起对个人和职场生活的影响。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Rare is the CEO who praises the virtues of a lie- in. According to one survey, two- thirds of the CEOs of large American companies are up by 6 o’ clock; for average Americans the share is less than one in three. For future corporate leaders, the message seems clear: you snooze (打盹), you lose. (很少有首席执行官会称赞睡懒觉的好处。根据一项调查,三分之二的美国大公司的首席执行官会在6点钟起床;对于普通美国人来说,这一比例不到三分之一。对于未来的企业领导人来说,这条信息似乎很明确:你打盹,你就输了。)”可知,本段提到调查的原因是为了说明早起和成功之间可能存在的联系。故选D项。
【33题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“Bartleby has no such ambitions. But he’s experimented with early starts, and found they not only bring the sense of satisfaction that comes from arriving before your editor. Inboxes can be cleared and tricky problems solved before the flood of emails and meetings, leaving you feeling well prepared for the day ahead. (巴特比没有这样的野心。但他尝试过早起,发现早起不仅带来早于编辑到达的满足感。在电子邮件和会议洪流到来之前,收件箱可以被清空,棘手的问题也可以得到解决,让你为即将到来的一天做好充分准备。)”可知,本段主要讲述了早起的好处。故选C项。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Rising early is not, though, all upside. Those ready to receive work when the boss arrives may be given more of it. If the early bird gets the worm, the clever worm stays in bed. Urgent tasks often come up during the day, meaning early arrivals may end up working just as late as other colleagues. (然而,早起也并非都是好处。那些准备在老板到达时开始工作的人可能会被分配更多工作。如果说早起的鸟儿有虫吃,那么聪明的虫子就会赖在床上。紧急任务经常在白天出现,这意味着早到的人可能也会像其他同事一样工作到很晚。)”可知,早起的坏处是可能增加工作量。故选B项。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据倒数第二段“Waking before sun rise also risks turning you into a bore. Some early risers cannot resist describing how much they get done while night owls hit the snooze button. Others go home early rather than socialize. Night owls, by contrast, let loose. In the eyes of many, late nights are the preserve of youth, while early mornings are seen as for the elderly. (日出前醒来也有可能让你变得无趣。一些早起的人忍不住会描述他们在夜猫子们打盹时完成了多少工作。另一些人则会早点回家,而不是进行社交。相比之下,夜猫子们则会放松。在许多人眼中,深夜是年轻人的专属,而清晨则被视为老年人的专属。)”以及通读全文可知,本文主要讨论了早起的利弊,所以D项“Is It Better to Be an Early Bird or a Night Owl?(早起好还是夜猫子好?)”是本文最好的标题。故选D项。
第二节 (共 5 小题;每小题 2.5 分, 满分 12.5 分)
阅读短文内容, 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。
When I was growing up, my mother used to repeat to me, “Use it up, wear it out, make it do, or do without.” ___36___ However, over the past year, thrift (节俭) has found a new social media-inspired name: “underconsumption core”.
___37___ They remind us that we don’t need a new air fryer. Digital creator Lauren got over half a million views on a video she posted just after the New Year. “What you had in 2024still works in 2025, ” she says, showing us her blanket with a hole that she intends to sew. Underconsumption core is taking over the Internet.
People are tired of the endless “links to shop”. ___38___ It couldn’t come at a better time. Social media influencers make millions each year by marketing products to their followers. If you spend any time on Tik Tok, you’ll probably recognize the sound of an influencer’s nails against a new-in-box product that is a must-have, or you may have seen a woman unloading a massive bag of Zara clothes on the floor before displaying them. The pressure to buy is everywhere. ___39___
The effects of this kind of push to consume are significant. Americans threw 11. 3 million tons of clothing into the garbage can in 2018. That’s something like 70 pounds of garbage per person per year. ___40___ Gen Zers are likely to describe their finances to be tight. The endless opportunities to compare with others on social media certainly don’t help.
So it’s time for a reset. For that, taking some underconsumption lessons from our mothers may be the answer.
A. This latest trend, instead, is about buying less.
B. On a personal level, Gen Zers struggle with their finances.
C. Content creators are doing their best to advocate such an idea.
D. Individually, Gen Zers are satisfied with the standard of living.
E. This trend features influencers showing their widened interests.
F. There are always some products that everyone seemingly should have.
G. Being a thrifty mom and passing the practice on to her kid is nothing new.
【答案】36. G 37. C 38. A 39. F 40. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。这篇文章主要讲述了从传统的节俭观念到现代社交媒体上兴起的“低消费主义核”这一新趋势的转变。文章建议从传统的节俭智慧中汲取教训,以实现一种更为可持续和平衡的消费方式。
【36题详解】
根据上文“When I was growing up, my mother used to repeat to me, “Use it up, wear it out, make it do, or do without.” (在我成长的过程中,母亲总是反复教导我:“用完它,用坏它,改造它,或者就不要用了。”)”可知,作者的母亲过去常常对他说“用完它,用坏它,改造它,或者就不要用了”,这是关于节俭的一种说法;G选项“Being a thrifty mom and passing the practice on to her kid is nothing new(当个节俭的妈妈并将这种做法传给她的孩子,这并不新鲜)”承接上文,强调了这种节俭观念的传承性,与前文形成逻辑上的衔接,符合题意。故选G。
【37题详解】
根据下文“They remind us that we don’t need a new air fryer. (他们提醒我们不需要一个新的空气炸锅)”,并以及““What you had in 2024still works in 2025, ” she says, showing us her blanket with a hole that she intends to sew.(“2024 年用的东西到了 2025 年依然适用,”她说道,并向我们展示她那有一处破洞、打算补上的毯子。)”举例说明内容创作者Lauren的视频观点,这些都是在倡导减少消费的理念;C选项“Content creators are doing their best to advocate such an idea(内容创作者正尽最大努力倡导这样的理念)”正好概括了下文的内容,说明内容创作者正在积极推广减少消费的理念,符合题意。故选C。
【38题详解】
上文提到“People are tired of the endless “links to shop”. (人们厌倦了无尽的“购物链接”)”,下文提到“ It couldn’t come at a better time.(这再好不过了)”以及“ Social media influencers make millions each year by marketing products to their followers. (社交媒体上的网红们每年通过向粉丝推销产品而赚取数百万的收入。)”可知,此处描述了社交媒体上充斥着各种营销产品的现象;A选项“This latest trend, instead, is about buying less(这个最新的趋势,相反,是关于买得更少)”与上文形成因果关系,即厌倦了无尽的购物链接,由此买的更少;同时和下文形成对比,指出当前的趋势是减少购买,符合题意。故选A。
【39题详解】
根据前文“If you spend any time on Tik Tok, you’ll probably recognize the sound of an influencer’s nails against a new-in-box product that is a must-have, or you may have seen a woman unloading a massive bag of Zara clothes on the floor before displaying them. The pressure to buy is everywhere.( 如果你在 Tik Tok 上花过时间,你可能会听到网红用指甲刮擦新包装商品的声音,那商品肯定是必备之物;或者你可能见过一位女士把一大袋 Zara 的衣服从袋子里倒出来摊在地上,然后展示出来。到处都充斥着购买的压力。)”可知,前文通过举例提到社交媒体上充斥着各种营销产品的现象,并指出“购买的压力无处不在”;F选项“There are always some products that everyone seemingly should have(总有一些产品,似乎每个人都应该拥有)”正好解释了为什么购买的压力无处不在,因为总有一些产品被认为是必需品,符合题意。故选F。
【40题详解】
根据前文“Americans threw 11. 3 million tons of clothing into the garbage can in 2018. That’s something like 70 pounds of garbage per person per year(2018 年,美国人将 1130 万吨衣物扔进了垃圾桶。这相当于每人每年产生约 70 磅的垃圾。)”可知,此处提到美国人每年扔掉大量衣物,造成了巨大的影响;同时后文“Gen Zers are likely to describe their finances to be tight. (Z世代可能会说他们的财务状况很紧张)”指出Gen Z人可能认为自己的经济状况紧张;B选项“On a personal level, Gen Zers struggle with their finances(在个人层面,Z世代正与他们的财务作斗争)”正好承接上文,并引出下文关于Z世代财务困境的讨论,符合题意。故选B。

67. 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。
Around midnight on Wednesday, March 5, Ms. Cassell fell asleep at the wheel while driving to her mother’s house and crashed into a shallow creek (小溪). She immediately began to scream for help. The road was mere yards away, but because her car was almost directly under a bridge, it would have been difficult for drivers to hear or see her.
The accident shattered (碎裂) her left arm and legs. The front of the car collapsed inward, trapping her lower body. Her cellphone flew under the passenger seat, just out of reach, and quickly ran out of battery. All she could do was move her arms, and one was broken.
Her leg was bleeding heavily. In what was most likely the first of many moves that saved her life, she grabbed her belt and fastened a tourniquet (止血带). As temperatures dropped below freezing overnight, she covered herself with a comforter that was in the back of her car — a gift she had recently purchased for a friend.
Her family realized the next day that she hadn’t returned home, and started to worry. When she didn’t respond to calls or texts from her children, they began to look for her.
The area where she crashed was mostly farmland, but the bridge was fairly busy, and around 400 cars would have passed by Ms. Cassell every day. To signal that she was in the car, Ms. Cassell used makeup to write the word “help” on the driver’s side window.
When all efforts failed to locate her, her family contacted an independent rescue team in the area that sent out dogs and drones (无人机) to assist in the search. They followed up on tips that took them all over the county.
注意:
1. 写作词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置做答。
As time went on, Ms. Cassell felt more and more thirsty.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
On the sixth day, she was spotted by Jeremy Vander, a heavy machinery operator.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 As time went on, Ms. Cassell felt more and more thirsty. She knew she could survive without food for a while, but only a few days without water. She opened the door and stretched out her hand, only to find she was still about three feet short of the water in the creek. So she got creative once again: She took her favorite sweater and dipped it into the water, letting the pink fabric soak up the water before pulling it back and wringing it into her mouth. As she grew weaker, she drifted in and out of sleep. Still, she clung to the hope that somebody would come to her rescue.
On the sixth day, she was spotted by Jeremy Vander, a heavy machinery operator. Jeremy was working on a construction project near the bridge when he noticed something unusual — a flash of reflected light from below. Curious, he walked to the edge and peered down into the ditch. That’s when he saw the crumpled vehicle and the word “HELP” across the glass. Jeremy hurried down and saw the outline of a motionless figure inside. Startled, he immediately contacted emergency services. Help arrived soon after. Thanks to his alertness — and her extraordinary strength — Ms. Cassell was finally pulled from the wreckage, still alive after those long, freezing nights.

Towering peaks, sparkling lakes, and rarely exporting wine are a few reasons to make Switzerland your next vacation destination. Here are some places for you to explore.
Zermatt
Zermatt has been car-free for decades to prevent pollution. It’s an all-season adventure-lovers’ playground attracting visitors from around the globe. In the summer months, ski teams train at Matterhorn Glacier Paradise, Europe’s largest and highest ski region. In addition to access to extensive outdoor activities, there are plenty of relaxing events like wandering along Zermatt’s Bahnhofstrasse.
Saas-Fee
You’ll find Switzerland’s highest mountain, the Dom, climbing above Saas-Fee, which has always been free of cars. During the warmer months, visitors travel on the designed-for-wandering streets, and hikers walk with pieces of carrot stuffed in their pockets. Take the cable car (缆车) to the Mittelallalin and visit the world’s highest revolving (旋转) restaurant, Allalin, which turns 360°every hour.
Mürren
Located above the Lauterbrunnen valley, tiny car-free Mürren attracts outdoor enthusiasts — it’s home to Switzerland’s first ski school — as well as fans of James Bond. Scenes from the film On Her Majesty’s Secret Service were filmed at the revolving restaurant on the Schilthorn high above Mürren. Spy World, an interactive exhibition about the 007 movie, and the Skyline View platform are a few other attractions.
Rigi
Located in central Switzerland, near Lake Lucerne and Lake Zug, Rigi has been attracting visitors since the 18th century. Known as the “Queen of the Mountains”, Rigi has hosted Queen Victoria, painter William Turner, and Mark Twain. The Blue Rigi, Sunrise painted by William Turner, was acquired by the Tate Gallery. Cars are not allowed on the mountain. Visitors usually reach there by train or cable car.
21. What can visitors do in Saas-Fee?
A. Enjoy skiing all year round. B. View the scenery on a platform.
C. Admire paintings by William Turner. D. Dine in the highest revolving restaurant.

A. They are car-free zones. B. They provide interactive events.
C. They are friendly to hikers. D. They host famous celebrities.
B
Earth is filled with an amazing variety of creatures and an artist has put its diversity on display like never before. Anton Thomas of New Zealand has created a hand-drawn map of the entire planet that features animals in their natural habitats.
His journey began in childhood, drawing imaginary worlds on his bedroom walls in Nelson. Thomas, as a child, longed for a world where nature ruled dominant. His map represents the “ideal planet that I wanted,” Thomas said. “I would see all the houses, and imagine what it was like before any humans showed up.” After years working as a chef and musician, a chance request to decorate an old fridge in Montreal relighted his passion for cartography (制图学), launching an extraordinary career.
Thomas’s first major project, a massive map of North America, consumed five years of his life. Working evenings after teaching jobs, he frequently redrew sections as his skills improved. “These represent real homes, not abstract (抽象的) art,” he stresses, explaining his thorough approach. The completed work earned recognition from National Geographic and The New York Times. Retired cartographer Tom Patterson praises its uniqueness: no digital tools were used, just pencil and paper.
During the 2020 lockdowns, Thomas started his masterpiece: “Wild World.” Three years, approximately 2,602 working hours and 1,642 animal species later, “Wild World” is a hand-drawn map of our planet that both inspires and celebrates wonder. For three years, he carefully drew animals in their natural habitats using colored pencils and a magnifying glass (放大镜). The project, originally planned for six months, became an all-consuming labor of love that he considers his finest work.
Now a full-time artist, Thomas continues to push boundaries in hand-drawn cartography. From elementary schools to Stanford University, he shares his unique vision. “Every map tells two stories,” he says, “the geography we see and the passion that brings it to life.”
24. What inspired Thomas to return to mapmaking?
A. An opportunity to decorate a fridge.
B. An offer from National Geographic.
C. A journey in his childhood.
D. His interest in cartography.
25. How did Thomas work on his first project?
A. He worked mainly during the day.
B. He kept working on it to improve.
C. He used digital tools to save time.
D He followed others’ instructions.
26. Which statement best describes Thomas and his map “Wild World”?
A. He sees it as a rough draft for bigger ideas.
B. He feels proud and emotionally connected to it.
C. He regrets spending too much time on it.
D. He believes it deserves more public attention.
27. What does Thomas’s experience show?
A. Education inspires creativity. B. Art shows truth.
C. Passion fuels achievement. D. Tools limit art.
C
Every superhero, no matter how small, needs a cape. That was Robyn Rosenberger’s motivation when she started sewing superhero capes for kids with cancer, heart defects, and other serious diseases. It all began when she was making a cape as a birthday present for her nephew. Rosenberger heard of a girl named Brenna who was battling a potentially deadly skin condition called harlequin ichthyosis. Anyone suffering from what she was going through had to be tough. “I had an aha moment (顿悟),” Rosenberger says. “Brenna was a superhero! She needed a cape.” So Rosenberger sent her one, and Brenna’s mother was delighted.
Rosenberger found ten more kids online and sent out ten more capes. Before long, she quit her job at a software company to dedicate herself full time to tinysuperheroes.com, a website where people can buy hand-made capes for brave kids facing illness and disability.
Since 2013, Rosenberger and her small paid staff have sent more than 12,000 handmade capes to kids in all 50 states and 15 other countries. The capes come in pink, blue, purple, or red and can be decorated with the child’s initials or specialized patches, including a heart, a rocket, or a lightning bolt. One recipient was eight-month-old Gabe, who was born with a cleft palate (腭裂), which causes distinct facial features. Rosenberger sent him a red cape with a bright yellow G in the center. It was a hit.
Gabe is now a fixture on the company’s social media posts. “The Tiny Superhero community has been a wonderful connection to have,” says Gabe’s mom, Kate Glocke. In fact, two years later, “We still bring Gabe’s cape with us to every hospital appointment.”
28. Rosenberger started making capes because she _______.
A. wanted to set a good example to sick kids
B. hoped to encourage kids with serious diseases
C. aimed to cure the kids with serious diseases
D. made an attempt to make money online
29. Which word can best describe Rosenberger?
A. Optimistic. B. Independent.
C. Diligent. D. Caring.
30. Which of the following capes are NOT available?
A. Purple capes with the child’s initials.
B. Pink capes with the child’s photo.
C. Red capes with a heart-shaped patch.
D. Blue capes with a patch shaped like a rocket.
31. In which column of the newspaper are you likely to read the story?
A. Cover Story. B. Book Review.
C Medical Research. D. Campus Life.
D
Rare is the CEO who praises the virtues of a lie- in. According to one survey, two- thirds of the CEOs of large American companies are up by 6 o’ clock; for average Americans the share is less than one in three. For future corporate leaders, the message seems clear: you snooze (打盹), you lose.
Bartleby has no such ambitions. But he’s experimented with early starts, and found they not only bring the sense of satisfaction that comes from arriving before your editor. Inboxes can be cleared and tricky problems solved before the flood of emails and meetings, leaving you feeling well prepared for the day ahead.
Early birds are certainly held in higher regard. Rolling into the office late is unacceptable in most workplaces. A study published in 2022 found night owls (猫头鹰) were perceived by respondents as being “lazy”, “undisciplined” and “immature”.
Rising early is not, though, all upside. Those ready to receive work when the boss arrives may be given more of it. If the early bird gets the worm, the clever worm stays in bed. Urgent tasks often come up during the day, meaning early arrivals may end up working just as late as other colleagues.
Waking before sun rise also risks turning you into a bore. Some early risers cannot resist describing how much they get done while night owls hit the snooze button. Others go home early rather than socialize. Night owls, by contrast, let loose. In the eyes of many, late nights are the preserve of youth, while early mornings are seen as for the elderly.
Efforts to change your circadian (昼夜节律的) rhythm are likely to end in disappointment, as it is largely a product of genes. Perhaps the best advice is to stop worrying about your body clock. Most people are neither early birds nor night owls, but in between, struggling both in the morning and late evening. That is why most offices operate between 9 and 5— and why they ought to have break rooms.
32. Why does the writer mention the survey in paragraph 1?
A. To illustrate the harmful effects of snoozing.
B. To praise the healthy sleeping habit of the CEOs.
C. To tell the difference between CEOs and average workers.
D. To show the possible link between early rising and success.
33. What does paragraph 2 focus on?
A. The feelings of early risers. B. The challenges on a workday.
C. The benefits of getting up early. D. The preparations before work.
34. What can be a downside of being an early bird?
A. Poor public image. B. Increased workload.
C. Hug e social pressure. D. Decreased productivity.
35. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. Why Do CEOs Prefer Early Mornings?
B. How Can We Change Our Body Clock?
C. What Is the Science Behind Early Rising?
D. Is It Better to Be an Early Bird or a Night Owl?
第二节 (共 5 小题;每小题 2.5 分, 满分 12.5 分)
阅读短文内容, 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。
When I was growing up, my mother used to repeat to me, “Use it up, wear it out, make it do, or do without.” ___36___ However, over the past year, thrift (节俭) has found a new social media-inspired name: “underconsumption core”.
___37___ They remind us that we don’t need a new air fryer. Digital creator Lauren got over half a million views on a video she posted just after the New Year. “What you had in 2024still works in 2025, ” she says, showing us her blanket with a hole that she intends to sew. Underconsumption core is taking over the Internet.
People are tired of the endless “links to shop”. ___38___ It couldn’t come at a better time. Social media influencers make millions each year by marketing products to their followers. If you spend any time on Tik Tok, you’ll probably recognize the sound of an influencer’s nails against a new-in-box product that is a must-have, or you may have seen a woman unloading a massive bag of Zara clothes on the floor before displaying them. The pressure to buy is everywhere. ___39___
The effects of this kind of push to consume are significant. Americans threw 11. 3 million tons of clothing into the garbage can in 2018. That’s something like 70 pounds of garbage per person per year. ___40___ Gen Zers are likely to describe their finances to be tight. The endless opportunities to compare with others on social media certainly don’t help.
So it’s time for a reset. For that, taking some underconsumption lessons from our mothers may be the answer.
A. This latest trend, instead, is about buying less.
B. On a personal level, Gen Zers struggle with their finances.
C. Content creators are doing their best to advocate such an idea.
D. Individually, Gen Zers are satisfied with the standard of living.
E. This trend features influencers showing their widened interests.
F. There are always some products that everyone seemingly should have.
G. Being a thrifty mom and passing the practice on to her kid is nothing new.

67. 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。
Around midnight on Wednesday, March 5, Ms. Cassell fell asleep at the wheel while driving to her mother’s house and crashed into a shallow creek (小溪). She immediately began to scream for help. The road was mere yards away, but because her car was almost directly under a bridge, it would have been difficult for drivers to hear or see her.
The accident shattered (碎裂) her left arm and legs. The front of the car collapsed inward, trapping her lower body. Her cellphone flew under the passenger seat, just out of reach, and quickly ran out of battery. All she could do was move her arms, and one was broken.
Her leg was bleeding heavily. In what was most likely the first of many moves that saved her life, she grabbed her belt and fastened a tourniquet (止血带). As temperatures dropped below freezing overnight, she covered herself with a comforter that was in the back of her car — a gift she had recently purchased for a friend.
Her family realized the next day that she hadn’t returned home, and started to worry. When she didn’t respond to calls or texts from her children, they began to look for her.
The area where she crashed was mostly farmland, but the bridge was fairly busy, and around 400 cars would have passed by Ms. Cassell every day. To signal that she was in the car, Ms. Cassell used makeup to write the word “help” on the driver’s side window.
When all efforts failed to locate her her family contacted an independent rescue team in the area that sent out dogs and drones (无人机) to assist in the search. They followed up on tips that took them all over the county.
注意:
1. 写作词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置做答。
As time went on, Ms. Cassell felt more and more thirsty.

On the sixth day, she was spotted by Jeremy Vander, a heavy machinery operator.
