Originally it was the garden of the local police station. When she was 15, during her summer holidays, Joshi decided to do something about it.“I walked into the police station and was like, ‘Can I please clean your garden?'” recalls Joshi. “It took three or four weeks to eventually convince them that I was not going to give up halfway and leave them with more work.” 　　The plot of land covers an area of 60 square meters, about a quarter of a tennis court. But, over the course of four Sundays in the summer, with the help of local residents, Joshi did more than clear it. She replanted it with native Indian plants and trees. Joshi said,“The first day that we cleaned up I made the mistake of not wearing gloves and I was sick for two weeks.” 　　The idea for native planting came from Joshi's reading of the Miyawaki method of afforestation(植树造林) and the work of University of Delaware's ecologist Douglas Tallamy. These both argue that planting the right trees can have a significant impact on restoring animal biodiversity. The results in Mumbai were immediate: monkeys now hang out at the police station, and butterflies and birds have made the garden their home. 　　After creating the garden, Joshi developed a database of 2,000 plants unique to the Indian subcontinent(次大陆) and last year was awarded the annual Children's Climate Prize, founded by Swedish energy company Telge Energi. “If you bite off more than you can chew in the beginning, you will be stuck and lose motivation,” she says. “But something small, like your neighborhood police station, is very manageable.” 24.What was the dump before? A.It was the garden of South Mumbai. B.It was the garden of the local school. C.It was the garden of the local police station. D.It was the research center of University of Delaware. 25.What can we learn from Joshi's words in the second paragraph? A.Joshi was sick of the cleaning work. B.The garden was too large to clean. C.The work was enjoyable and rewarding. D.The cleaning was hard and dangerous. 26.What can we learn from Joshi's words in the last paragraph? A.All roads lead to Rome. B.The longest journey starts from the first step. C.Time and tide wait for no man. D.Whatever is worth doing is worth doing well. 27.What is the purpose of the text? A.To demonstrate the environmental problems. B.To call attention to India's young people. C.To persuade readers to donate to an environment program. D.To advocate a teenager's effort in caring about the world. C 　　Most of our everyday plastic items end up in landfill, left to rot away for many years. But some of them were blown away, spoiling the countryside, causing damage to the naturalenvironment and harming wildlife. The problem is most severe in the ocean. Research has found a deserted island in the South Pacific is littered with the highest density(密度) of plastic waste anywhere in the world. 　　The study described how remote islands act as a “sink” for the world's rubbish. They become collecting points for fishing items and everyday things including toothbrushes, cigarette lighters and razors—things that we throw away. Dr Jennifer Lavers from the University of Tasmania says, “Almost every island in the world and almost every species in the ocean are now being impacted one way or another by our waste.” 　　This highlights the potentially deadly effect of our disposable(用后即丢弃的) culture. When we throw something away, it doesn't just disappear—it goes somewhere and because of the nature of plastic, it takes a long time to rot away and stays there, causing great damage to the ocean's ecology(生态). And worse still, plastic is broken down into tiny particles over a long period by the wind and the waves, and then sea creatures at the bottom of the food chain swallow them. These creatures are eaten by the fish that we eventually consume. 　　The solution to this problem would be to use less plastic. Several countries now charge for using plastic carrier bags, which reduces the usage, and some products now use natural and recyclable materials. 28.What does the author really want to tell us in the first paragraph? A.Plastic items blow away easily in the strong wind. B.It is a bad habit to throw away plastics everywhere. C.Plastic pollution in the ocean is a most serious issue. D.It is a good idea to let plastic items end up in landfill. 29.What does the author mean by saying the islands act as a “sink” for the world's rubbish? A.The islands begin to sink with much rubbish on them. B.The islands have become gathering places for rubbish. C.The islands are inaccessible due to the white pollution. D.The islands are ideal places to hide the plastic products. 30.What does the underlined word “This” in paragraph 3 refer to? A.The nature of plastic. B.The ocean's ecology. C.Thrown-away rubbish. D.The impact on sea species. 31.What's the really frightening fact about the plastic pollution in the ocean? A.Presenting potential risks to our health. B.Causing many sea creatures to die out. C.Breaking the balance of the ocean's ecology. D.Cutting off the food chain of sea creatures. D 　　A new study published in the journal Science Advances finds that AI enhances creativity by boosting the novelty of story ideas as well as the “usefulness” of stories—their ability to engage the target audience and potential for publication. It finds that AI “professionalizes” stories, making them more enjoyable, more likely to have plot twists, better written and less boring. 　　The researchers assigned the 300 study participants to three groups: one group was allowed no AI help, a second group could use ChatGPT to provide a single three-sentence starting idea, and writers in the third group could choose from up to five AI-generated ideas for their inspiration. 　　They then organized 600 people to judge how good the stories were, assessing them for novelty—whether the stories did something new or unexpected—and “usefulness”—how appropriate they were for the target audience, and whether the ideas could be developed and potentially published. 　　They found that writers with the most access to AI experienced the greatest gains in their creativity, their stories scoring 9% higher for novelty compared with stories written without AI. Writers who used up to five AI-generated ideas also scored higher for emotional characteristics, producing stories that were better written, more enjoyable, less boring and funnier. 　　The researchers evaluated the writers' creativity using a Divergent Association Task (DAT) and found that more creative writers—those with the highest DAT scores—benefited least from generative AI ideas. Conversely, less creative writers saw a greater increase in creativity. 　　The researchers also calculated how similar the stories were to each other. They found a 10.7% increase in similarity between writers whose stories used one generative AI-idea, compared with the group that didn't use AI. 　　Anil Doshi, an assistant professor at the UCL School of Management said, “While these results point to an increase in individual creativity, there is a risk of losing collective novelty. If the publishing industry were to embrace more generative AI-inspired stories, our findings suggest that the stories would become less unique and more similar to each other.” 32.Which aspects of the AI-assisted stories were assessed in the study? A.Universality and availability. B.Originality and practicality. C.Creativity and specialization. D.Similarity and integrity. 33.What might the underlined word “Conversely” in paragraph 5 mean? A.Sure enough. B.In conclusion. C.On the contrary. D.As a result. 34.What is Anil Doshi's attitude towards AI-inspired stories? A.Objective.　　　B.Indifferent. C.Favorable.　　　D.Ambiguous. 35.What can be a suitable title for the passage? A.AI Is Being Used to Create Novel Stories B.AI Is Becoming a Threat to Human Writers C.AI Can Help to Improve People's Writing Skills D.AI Can Boost the Creativity of Stories but Pays a Price 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。 　　Research shows that with 2℃ of global warming we will have more disasters like droughts, floods, wildfires and storms. Unless we act immediately to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, we won't be able to escape the worst consequences of climate change. This can seem depressing. 　36　. Here are some ways you can be part of the climate solution:  　　•Transform your transport 　　　37　. So many governments across the world are taking action to reduce carbon emissions in transport. You can get a head start. Leave your car at home and walk or cycle whenever possible. If the distances are too long, choose public transport, preferably electric options. If you must drive, offer to carpool with others so that fewer cars are on the road.  　　•　38　  　　To reduce your food's carbon footprint, buy local and seasonal foods. You'll be helping small businesses and farms in your area and reducing fossil fuel emissions associated with transport and cold chain storage. Go one step further and try growing your own fruit, vegetables and herbs. 　39　.   　　•Don't waste food 　　One-third of all food produced is either lost or wasted. People waste 1 billion tons of food each year, which accounts for around 8-10 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions. Avoid waste by only buying what you need. Take advantage of every edible(可食用的) part of the foods you buy. Be creative with leftovers, and share extras with your friends and neighbours. 　40　. It's the best option for managing organic waste while also reducing environmental impacts.   A.Grow your own food B.Shop locally and buy sustainable food C.Transport is a typical example of human activities D.But the good news is that there's a lot we can still do as individuals E.Traffic accounts for around a quarter of all greenhouse gas emissions F.You can plant them in a garden, on a balcony or even on a windowsill G.Make compost(堆肥) out of inedible parts and use it to fertilize(使肥沃) your garden 36.　　　　37.　　　　38.　　　　39.　　　　40.　　　  第三部分　语言运用(共两节,满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分) 　　阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 　　Growing up, I spent countless hours in the woods behind my childhood home. Each tree had a story, a memory 　41　 to it. I remember the 　42　 of friends echoed(回响) in the woods as we played hide and seek, and that the sun shone through the leaves, casting shadows on the forest floor.  　　When I 　43　 home after five years, I was 　44　 by how much the ecosystem had changed. With climate change getting 　45　 and more buildings being built, I was 　46　 about what's happening.  　　The colorful memories of my childhood are 　47　. In its place lies a landscape marked by change—change that feels invasive(唐突的) and strange. Now many trees are gone, 　48　 by housing developments that have no 　49　 and character.  　　I can't just 　50　 and do nothing. I began to educate myself about conservation efforts, driven by the changes I 　51　 in my environment. I have joined local conservation groups, participating in tree-planting initiatives to 　52　 native species and fight against plants that don't belong here. Besides, I made efforts to raise 　53　 in my community of the importance of preserving our natural spaces.  　　As we face the realities of a changing climate, we may find 　54　 not only in our memories but also in our collective capacity to create a good future for both people and the planet, where we live together 　55　, taking care of all the living things.  41.A.addicted　　　B.committed　　　C.exposed　　　D.attached 42.A.laughter　　　B.songs　　　C.scream　　　D.whispers 43.A.moved　　　B.returned　　　C.left　　　D.rang 44.A.amused　　　B.attacked　　　C.struck　　　D.stuck 45.A.worse　　　B.colder　　　C.drier　　　D.better 46.A.curious　　　B.worried　　　C.positive　　　D.particular 47.A.flooding in　　　B.calming down　　　C.setting out　　　D.falling away 48.A.detected　　　B.ruined　　　C.replaced　　　D.attracted 49.A.life　　　B.color　　　C.emphasis　　　D.history 50.A.think　　　B.advertise　　　C.quit　　　D.watch 51.A.caused　　　B.brought　　　C.witnessed　　　D.prevented 52.A.spread　　　B.restore　　　C.buy　　　D.water 53.A.pay　　　B.funds　　　C.awareness　　　D.standards 54.A.entertainment　　　B.certainty　　　C.circumstance　　　D.comfort 55.A.harmoniously　　　B.competitively　　　C.distinctly　　　D.apparently 第二节(共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分) 　　阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 　　Global warming could make humans shorter, warning scientists who are said 　56　(find) evidence that it caused the world's first horses to shrink nearly 50 million years ago.  　　In fact a team from the universities of Florida and Nebraska says it has found a link between the earth 　57　(heat) up and the size of mammals—horses. The scientists used fossils to follow the evolution(进化) of horses from their earliest 　58　(appear) 56 million years ago.  　　“As temperatures went up, 　59　(they) size went down, and vice versa; at one point they were as small as a house cat,” said Dr. Jonathan Bloch, curator of the Florida Museum of Natural History. The scientists say that the current warming could have the same influence 　60　 mammals—and could even make humans 　61　(small).   　　Horses 　62　(start) out small, about the size of a small dog like a miniature schnauzer. 　63　 is surprising is that after they first appeared, they then became even smaller and then 　64　(drama) increased in size, and that exactly agrees with the global warming event. “It had been known that mammals were small when it was warm, 　65　 we hadn't understood that the temperature really was driving the evolution of body size,” Dr. Bloch said in the Science journal.  56.　　　　57.　　　　58.　　　　59.　　　　60.　　　  61.　　　　62.　　　　63.　　　　64.　　　　65.　　　  第四部分　写作(共两节,满分40分) 第一节(满分15分) 　　假如你是学生会主席李华,请你以“保护环境,低碳生活”为主题,写一封英语倡议书,号召大家积极采取行动,践行低碳生活(low-carbon life)。内容包括: 　　1.保护环境的重要性; 　　2.如何低碳生活; 　　3.发出倡议。 注意:写作词数应为80个左右。 Dear fellow students, 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　  　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　  　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　  　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　  　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　  　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　  　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　  　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　  　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　  　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　  　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　  　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　  第二节(满分25分) 　　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。 　　In a small community located in a suburb of Exeter, life had been really tough for years due to a disheartening problem. The once beautiful and peaceful neighborhood was now a mess. Piles of waste were piling up higher and higher as each day passed by. The awful smell filled every corner, and the unpleasant sight made people feel so sad. As the environment got worse and worse, many residents just couldn't take it anymore. They were so tired of living like this that a lot of them chose to pack up and leave, hoping to find cleaner and nicer places to live. 　　It was at this really bad moment that two young students, Emma and Mia, who were classmates and best friends from Phillips Exeter Academy, stepped up. They both loved the environment and were extremely worried about the pollution crisis in their community. Seeing more and more neighbors leaving, they knew they had to do something. They couldn't just stand there and watch. So, they made up their minds to take control of the situation. 　　Their journey to making a change started with careful research and planning. The two girls spent hours searching on the Internet, looking for all kinds of information about environmental measures. They also reached out to local environmentalists, asking for advice and help. To better understand the problems, they organized meetings with the residents. At these meetings, they listened carefully and collected useful data about what kind of waste there was, where it came from, and which areas were hit the hardest. After getting all this knowledge, Emma and Mia worked out a really detailed and comprehensive (全面的) plan. When they announced it to the community and asked for opinions, they were overjoyed that everyone supported it strongly. 注意:续写词数应为150个左右。 With the plan ready,Emma and Mia took action immediately.

made of 100% reused polyester.”、第三段中的“This suitcase made from sustainable materials”、第四段中的“Made from sustainable materials”和最后一段中的“Plus, it is made from 100% reused materials”可知,文章推荐这些礼物是因为它们使用可持续材料。故选C。 22.A　细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“Stylish, functional, and travel-friendly, the ReNew Transit Backpack is perfect for your adventurous loved ones.”可知,ReNew Transit Backpack这款背包非常适合冒险家。故选A。 23.B　推理判断题。根据第一段中的“This article explores some of the best green gifts for your friends.”和下文内容可知,文章主要推荐了四种环保型的礼物并强调了这些礼物的可持续性,这与环保主题密切相关,因此本文最有可能出现在报纸的“Go green(践行环保)”版块。故选B。 B 　　语篇解读　本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了Aadya Joshi为改善环境所做的努力。 24.C　细节理解题。根据第一段中的“For years, twice a day Aadya Joshi walked past a dump...Originally it was the garden of the local police station.”可知,垃圾场之前是当地警察局的花园。故选C。 25.D　推理判断题。第二段中Joshi说的话“The first day that we cleaned up I made the mistake of not wearing gloves and I was sick for two weeks.”提到了她在清理时没有戴手套导致生病两周的经历,由此推测清洁工作既艰难又有一定的危险性。故选D。 26.B　推理判断题。根据最后一段中Joshi的话可推测,她认为改善环境要从小事做起。B项“The longest journey starts from the first step.”与Joshi的观点一致。故选B。 27.D　推理判断题。通读全文可知,文章主要介绍了Aadya Joshi为改善环境所做的努力。由此推测,文章的目的是提倡青少年关心世界。故选D。 C 　　语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。一项研究发现,南太平洋的一座荒岛是世界上塑料垃圾密度最高的地方,海洋塑料污染是一个严重的问题,而解决海洋塑料污染的办法是使用更少的塑料。 28.C　推理判断题。根据第一段中的“The problem is most severe in the ocean.”可知,第一段介绍了海洋塑料污染是一个非常严重的问题。下面的段落围绕该话题展开。故选C。 29.B　细节理解题。根据第二段中的“They become collecting points for fishing items and everyday things including...”可知,作者说这些岛屿作为世界垃圾的“渗坑”是指这些岛屿已经成为垃圾聚集的地方。故选B。 30.D　词义猜测题。画线词是代词,一般指代上文;画线词位于第三段开头,所以需要从第二段寻找相关信息。根据第二段中的“Almost every island in the world and almost every species in the ocean are now being impacted one way or another by our waste.”可推测,代词This指的是“对海洋物种的影响”。故选D。 31.A　推理判断题。根据第三段最后两句可知,塑料被分解为小颗粒后被食物链底层的海洋生物吃掉,然后鱼吃掉这些食物链底层的生物,我们最终吃掉鱼。由此推测,关于海洋塑料污染,真正可怕的事实是其对我们的健康有潜在的威胁。故选A。 D 　　语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。研究发现,利用人工智能写作可以提高故事创意的新颖性和故事的“有用性”,但是由人工智能辅助的故事被发现包含很多的相似之处,缺乏多样性。 32.B　细节理解题。根据第三段中的“They then organized 600 people to judge how good the stories were, assessing them for novelty...and ‘usefulness’”可知,评估的是故事的独创性和实用性。故选B。 33.C　词义猜测题。根据画线词上文“more creative writers...benefited least from generative AI ideas”和下文“less creative writers saw a greater increase in creativity”可知,上下文之间是对比关系,因此画线词“Conversely”意为“相反地”。故选C。 34.A　推理判断题。根据最后一段中Anil Doshi说的话“While these results point to an increase in individual creativity, there is a risk of losing collective novelty...our findings suggest that the stories would become less unique and more similar to each other.”可知,Anil Doshi既提到了人工智能辅助生成故事的优点(个人创造力有所提高),也提到了缺点(集体创造力存在丧失的风险),因此他的评价是客观的。故选A。 35.D　主旨大意题。通读全文可知,本文主要介绍了人工智能可以提高故事创意的新颖性,但同时也会使人工智能协助的写作产生相似性,所以D项“人工智能可以提高故事的创造力,但也要付出代价”是本文的最佳标题。故选D。 第二节 　　语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要提出了一些个人可以减少气候影响的方法和建议。 36.D　设空处与上下文构成的语意结构为:这似乎令人沮丧。→　36　→这里有一些方法可以让你成为气候问题解决方案的一部分。D项“但好消息是,作为个人,我们仍然可以做很多事情”与上文构成转折关系,同时指出作为个人也可以采取行动减少气候影响。故选D。   37.E　设空处下文提到,因此世界各地的许多政府都在采取行动以减少交通运输中的碳排放。E项“交通排放的温室气体约占温室气体排放总量的四分之一”阐明原因,与下文构成因果关系。故选E。 38.B　根据文章结构可知,设空处是段落小标题。本段主要讲的是如何减少食物的碳足迹。B项“在当地购物,购买可持续食品”是对本段的概括总结,且B项中的locally与下文中的local是同根词。故选B。 39.F　设空处上文提到,更进一步,尝试自己种植水果、蔬菜和草药。F项“你可以把它们种在花园里,阳台上,甚至窗台上”是对上文的补充说明,F项中的them指代上文中的“fruit, vegetables and herbs”。故选F。 40.G　设空处与上下文构成的语意结构为:利用你所买食物的每一个可食用部分。创造性地处理剩菜,与你的朋友和邻居分享多余的剩菜。→　40　→这是管理有机废物同时减少环境影响的最佳选择。G项“把不可食用的部分做成堆肥,用来给花园施肥”承上启下,符合语境。故选G。   第三部分　语言运用 第一节 　　语篇解读　本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者童年时在树林中的美好回忆,以及多年后作者回到家乡发现生态系统发生巨大变化后的感慨和行动。 41.D　根据上文“Growing up, I spent countless hours in the woods behind my childhood home.”可知,作者童年的很多时光是在树林里度过的,所以应是每棵树都有一个故事,一段回忆。(be) attached to表示“附属于……”,符合语境。故选D。 42.A　根据下文“of friends echoed in the woods as we played hide and seek”可知,和朋友们玩捉迷藏是件高兴的事,所以应是笑声(laughter)在树林里回荡。故选A。 43.B　根据下文“after five

are gone”可知,许多树木被砍伐,更多的建筑被建造,所以应是气候变化越来越严重(worse)。故选A。 46.B　根据下文“I have joined local conservation groups, participating in tree-planting initiatives”可知,作者加入当地的环保组织,参与了保护本地物种的植树活动,所以应是为正在发生的事情感到担心(worried)。故选B。 47.D　根据下文“In its place lies a landscape marked by change—change that feels invasive and

　　语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。一项研究发现,全球变暖可能影响哺乳动物的体形,本文以马的进化为例进行了说明。 56.to have found　考查动词不定式。固定句型“sb. be said to do”意为“据说某人做了……”;提示词find所表示的动作发生在谓语are said之前,所以用动词不定式的完成式。故填to have found。 57.heating　考查动词-ing形式。分析句子可知,复合结构“the earth 　57　 up”作介词between的宾语,heat up与其逻辑主语the earth之间是主动关系,应用动词-ing形式。故填heating。   58.appearance　考查名词。根据空前的their earliest可知设空处应用名词。故填appearance。 59.their　考查代词。设空处修饰其后的名词size,应用形容词性物主代词。故填their。 60.on　考查介词。the influence on意为“对……的影响”。故填on。 61.smaller　考查形容词的比较级。根据语境可知,此处指的是“甚至可能使人类更矮小”,应用形容词的比较级作宾补。故填smaller。 62.started　考查动词的时态。分析句子可知,设空处作谓语;根据下文“after they first appeared”可知此处指的是“起初马很小”,描述过去的事情,应用一般过去时。故填started。 63.What　考查主语从句。分析句子可知,设空处引导主语从句且在从句中作主语,表示“……的事物”,应用连接代词what引导从句。设空处位于句首,首字母要大写。故填What。 64.dramatically　考查副词。设空处修饰动词increased,应用副词。故填dramatically。 65.but　考查连词。设空处前面的“It had been known...”和设空处后面的“we hadn't understood”构成转折关系,所以应用表示转折的并列连词but连接。 第四部分　写作 第一节 One possible version: Dear fellow students,  　　With the development of modern industry, the environment is becoming increasingly worse. It's high time that we should take measures, or we would have nowhere to live. 　　We students can protect our environment by living a low-carbon life. Firstly, do turn off lights and other switches when not using them to save electricity. What's more, if we go out, we should walk, ride or take public transport instead of driving. Finally, reusing paper and bottles in our daily life is also highly recommended. 　　Let's make joint efforts to create a green and harmonious environment. I strongly believe that the better world needs the commitment and dedication of everyone. 第二节 One possible version: 　　With the plan ready,Emma and Mia took action immediately. They began by organizing clean-up events, encouraging everyone in the community to pitch in and help remove the piles of waste that had accumulated. They also started recycling programs, setting up bins and educating residents on how to properly sort their trash. Gradually, the once messy neighborhood started to transform, becoming cleaner and more inviting. People's spirits lifted, and the community began to feel a renewed sense of pride and unity. 　　Emma and Mia were recognized and honored for their work. The local community was full of praise for their efforts and gave them gifts in appreciation of what they had done. Their school organized a special assembly, where they were proudly awarded medals of excellence for their dedication and commitment. Furthermore, their neighbors threw a joyous and lively party to express their heartfelt gratitude. The girls' efforts had not only improved their community but also inspired others to take action against environmental issues. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $第一部分听力。第一节听下面5段对话，每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题，每段对话仅读一遍。How was your campaign last week?
