From the frost-covered trails of Acadia National Park in coastal Maine to the breathtaking peaks in Washington State, here are some of the best destinations for a winter getaway. Denali National Park, Alaska With its remote location and minimal light pollution, Denali National Park becomes a tranquil winter retreat. The aurora season, between September and April, is a perfect time to take photos of the northern lights. Winter activities include Denali’s famous snowshoeing trails, skiing, and dogsledding. February is especially popular for Winterfest, featuring races and outdoor celebrations. Mount Rainier National Park, Washington State One of America’s oldest national parks, Mount Rainier is a perfect winter playground for outdoor enthusiasts. Snowmobiling is allowed in certain areas, and the upper parking lot of Paradise Visitor Center provides a family-friendly space for sledding and snow sliding. After a day of adventure, travelers can warm up at the historic National Park Hotel, enjoying hearty meals and views of the icy peak. Chaco Culture National Park, New Mexico In northern New Mexico, Chaco Culture National Historical Park holds stone houses made by the Ancestral Puebloan from 850 and 1250 B.C. Accessible for most of the winter, the park can see fewer than 10 visitors a day in colder months. Those lucky few who do show up can enjoy quiet trails by day and stunning starry skies by night. Bring your camera — iconic landforms make striking photographs against a star-filled winter night. 1. Which park offers accommodations for travelers according to the text? A. Acadia National Park. B. Denali National Park. C. Mount Rainier National Park. D. Chaco Culture National Park. 2. What do Denali and Chaco Culture National Park have in common? A. Large winter crowds. B. Ancient cultural relics. C. Various winter sports. D. Ideal photo spots. 3. Where does the passage come from? A. A personal diary. B. A travel magazine. C. A research paper. D. A history book. B Last fall, Joshua Barbeau, a freelance writer, logged onto a mysterious website called Project December. For years, Joshua had struggled with the lingering sorrow of losing his wife, Jessica, who died eight years ago. Project December, powered by an advanced AI, can mimic (模仿) almost any writing style. By providing the AI with specific samples of a person’s speech, it can conduct human-like conversations. Driven by a mixture of curiosity and desperate longing, Joshua built an AI version of Jessica using her old texts. The initial interaction sent a shiver through his soul. The chatbot captured Jessica’s unique voice, even her habit of using jokes to soften serious statements. For months, it served as a shelter where Joshua could finally unburden his long-buried sorrow. Yet the experience had a painful limit. Each chatbot had a fixed lifespan and would disappear permanently once its set time ended. Joshua realized that the digital version of Jessica would “die” as well, but he determined never to “reboot” her, fearing that treating her like a restartable video game would cheapen the experience. Fearing another loss, he limited his conversations with the chatbot, returning only briefly on special occasions, say, Jessica’s birthday. Despite occasional errors and confusion in the chatbot’s responses, Joshua did not feel disappointed. Instead, these moments reminded him of Jessica’s final days, when illness had clouded her memory. He corrected the chatbot gently, just as he once had in real life. In the months that followed, he’d felt calmer and more optimistic. The chatbot did not erase his sorrow or solve all his problems, but it offered emotional release and gentle encouragement. The survivor’s guilt that had weighed on him for years gradually loosened its hold, and most of the time, he no longer felt selfish for seeking happiness. For Joshua, the chat logs preserved the spark of his beloved, offering a long-awaited chance to say goodbye. 4. Why did Joshua create the chatbot? A. To test the technical boundaries of AI. B. To reconnect emotionally with his wife. C. To prove AI’s generative competence. D. To preserve the digital records of his wife. 5. What can we learn from paragraph 3? A. AI’s occasional faults depressed Joshua. B. Joshua planned to create a new chatbot later. C. Joshua wanted to prolong the chatbot’s company. D. The technical errors made the experience less real. 6. What impact did the chatbot have on Joshua over time? A. He was lost in the virtual world. B. He completely got rid of his sadness. C. He managed to find a new wife. D. He felt more composed and positive. 7. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. A Digital Reunion with a Lost Love B. A Romantic Memory of a Late Wife C. Digital Echoes: How to Build an AI Companion D. Project December: A Platform for Programmers C “This is a day in which my pride to be prime minister of Australia has never been greater. This is world-leading. This is Australia showing enough is enough,” Albanese said as the country’s under-16s social media ban came into effect on Wednesday. Albanese pointed to gathered media including those from the BBC, CNN and from Japan. He said the world was watching. The news has indeed turned heads globally. Some countries have already announced an intention to follow suit, including Malaysia, Indonesia, Denmark and Norway. Many Australians support this ban, with almost two-thirds of voters agreeing with the new rule. Major social media companies, including TikTok and Instagram, were asked to follow the ban. At first, some companies expressed resistance or concern, but they all said they would obey by the time the ban started. They use different methods, like checking faces or asking for ID, to verify (验证) users’ ages. Carrying out the ban in practice, however, has proved far more difficult than designing it on paper. Large numbers of young people have already discovered methods to bypass the restrictions. The Prime Minister himself recounted that during a school visit, students openly admitted that many of their friends had “dodged it”. Online searches for ways to get around age-verification systems also surged dramatically, highlighting how quickly and creatively teenagers adapt to new rules. In spite of these setbacks, Australia’s e-Safety Commissioner, Julie Inman Grant, has insisted that the government will not be discouraged. She described the policy as part of a “long game” to safeguard children’s well-being. Authorities plan to monitor how many underage users are removed from social media platforms and to conduct research on whether the ban leads to measurable improvements in teenagers’ mental health and academic performance, including standardized test results. Through this approach, the government hopes to position Australia as a global leader in developing new strategies to keep young people safe online. Public reaction remains mixed. Some parents say it is a relief to have their children more present at home; others worry that isolated young people will lose vital online support. For Wayne Holdsworth, a Melbourne father whose son died after being bullied online, the law is a necessary step. He believes, combined with education, it will better equip teens to handle social media when they finally log back on at 16. 8. What did Albanese think of the ban in Paragraph 1? A. It was a global achievement. B. It was a universal standard. C. It was a fruitless attempt. D. It was a vital intervention. 9. How did social media companies react to the ban? A. They found new ways to make profits. B. They fully supported the new policy. C. They showed strong opposition to it. D. They respected regulatory power. 10. What does the e-Safety Commissioner’s “long game” imply? A. The ban will be continuously and globally updated. B. The government prepares for persistent commitment. C. Teenagers’ mental health will improve in an instant. D. Underage users will access media platforms occasionally. 11. What is the main idea of the text? A. Many countries will copy Australia’s social media ban. B. Australia’s under-16s ban meets support and challenges. C. Social media companies put forward age verification. D. Australian government gave way to public resistance. D In today’s fast-paced digital world, two powerful yet often overlooked approaches to learning are gaining attention: curiosity-driven inquiry and active content creation. The science podcast Tumble, for example, invites young listeners to explore real scientific questions — such as “Could dinosaurs burp?” or “What would happen if there were no trees?” — not by giving quick answers, but by walking them through how scientists investigate such mysteries. Episodes feature interviews with researchers, discussions of evidence, and honest admissions when answers remain uncertain. This mirrors how real science works: messy, collaborative, and full of wonder. Equally valuable is the act of creating one’s own learning materials. As educators increasingly suggest, designing a quiz isn’t just a review tool — it’s a deep cognitive exercise. When students craft questions about a topic they care about, they must organize knowledge, anticipate misunderstandings, and distinguish between surface facts and core concepts. A well-structured quiz typically includes 9 to 12 questions of varied difficulty, uses clear language, and often adds a playful — but not misleading — distractor to its options to keep participants engaged. Crucially, both approaches share a common principle: learning thrives when learners take ownership. Whether by asking bold questions like those on Tumble or by testing peers with self-made quizzes, students shift from passive recipients to active thinkers. Early classroom trials show that such methods improve long-term memory and boost motivation, especially among those who struggle with traditional learning. Of course, these strategies work best with guidance. Teachers can help students refine their questions, evaluate sources, and interpret feedback. But the core message remains: when education starts with genuine curiosity and empowers creation, it doesn’t just transmit knowledge — it cultivates scientific habits of mind. 12. What is a key feature of the podcast Tumble? A. It provides accurate answers to all scientific questions. B. It encourages memorization of basic scientific facts. C. It reflects the real process of scientific investigation. D. It replaces formal school science courses with audio. 13. The word “distractor” in Paragraph 2 most likely refers to ________. A. a fun but tricky option in a quiz B. a visual aid to enhance engagement C. a misleading and confusing question D. a difficult scientific term used in teaching 14. What is the author’s opinion of the teachers’ role? A. Teachers focus on knowledge transmission only. B. Teachers should be given priority in education. C. Teachers act as guides rather than authorities. D. Teachers need to provide strict guidelines. 15. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To introduce digital learning tools for teenagers. B. To advocate curiosity-driven learning methods. C. To explain steps to create podcasts or quizzes. D. To criticize excessive reliance on technology. 第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 New discoveries and technological breakthroughs are made every year. Yet, as the agricultural sector moves forward, many people in society are looking back to their roots in terms of the food they eat. A “locavore” movement has emerged in the United States, encouraging people to eat foods grown locally and sustainably. ____16____. The United States’ agricultural output is among the highest in the world. Farms here are tremendously productive, thanks to advanced technology and massive inputs. ____17____. Professor Timothy Beach points out that this food system heavily depends on fossil fuels — both for machinery and fertilizer production. As global petrol reserves reduce, such dependence is turning into a growing threat to agricultural stability. Despite these challenges, the move toward sustainability is growing stronger. Farmers like Louise Keckler run small farms that supply fresh produce through community-supported agriculture networks. ____18____. This freshness not only improves nutrition but also helps consumers understand how climate change affects food systems. This personal connection fosters greater environmental awareness. Some experts also question whether the “locavore” movement is just a passing craze. ____19____. Professor Beach admits uncertainty but believes fully sustainable agriculture could still feed the nation. Professor Erin Barnett, however, calls it a lasting trend — a return to a more natural way of eating that aligns with human needs. ____20____. Urban residents are now growing tomatoes on balconies or herbs in window boxes. As Kirk Wilbur, a former urban farming advocate, notes, “No matter how small a space you have, you still have enough room to grow some food.” Local eating is no longer limited to rural areas — it’s becoming a lifestyle accessible to all. A. In fact, the movement is expanding into cities B. They can inspire more responsible consumption habits C. However this productivity comes at a high environmental cost D. It shortens supply chains and strengthens producer-consumer ties E. Many believe that global trade ensures food security better than local systems F. Whether temporary or not, they agree it’s made supermarkets rethink sourcing G. Through this model, households get food harvested only hours before delivery 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，从各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳答案。 In the world of business, I have always believed that we aren’t just selling goods; we are selling possibilities.

For years, Joshua had struggled with the lingering sorrow of losing his wife, Jessica, who died eight years ago. Project December, powered by an advanced AI, can mimic (模仿) almost any writing style. By providing the AI with specific samples of a person’s speech, it can conduct human-like conversations. Driven by a mixture of curiosity and desperate longing, Joshua built an AI version of Jessica using her old texts. The initial interaction sent a shiver through his soul. The chatbot captured Jessica’s unique voice, even her habit of using jokes to soften serious statements. For months, it served as a shelter where Joshua could finally unburden his long-buried sorrow. Yet the experience had a painful limit. Each chatbot had a fixed lifespan and would disappear permanently once its set time ended. Joshua realized that the digital version of Jessica would “die” as well, but he determined never to “reboot” her, fearing that treating her like a restartable video game would cheapen the experience. Fearing another loss, he limited his conversations with the chatbot, returning only briefly on special occasions, say, Jessica’s birthday. Despite occasional errors and confusion in the chatbot’s responses, Joshua did not feel disappointed. Instead, these moments reminded him of Jessica’s final days, when illness had clouded her memory. He corrected the chatbot gently, just as he once had in real life. In the months that followed, he’d felt calmer and more optimistic. The chatbot did not erase his sorrow or solve all his problems, but it offered emotional release and gentle encouragement. The survivor’s guilt that had weighed on him for years gradually loosened its hold, and most of the time, he no longer felt selfish for seeking happiness. For Joshua, the chat logs preserved the spark of his beloved, offering a long-awaited chance to say goodbye. 4. Why did Joshua create the chatbot? A. To test the technical boundaries of AI. B. To reconnect emotionally with his wife. C. To prove AI’s generative competence. D. To preserve the digital records of his wife. 5. What can we learn from paragraph 3? A. AI’s occasional faults depressed Joshua. B. Joshua planned to create a new chatbot later. C. Joshua wanted to prolong the chatbot’s company. D. The technical errors made the experience less real. 6. What impact did the chatbot have on Joshua over time? A. He was lost in the virtual world. B. He completely got rid of his sadness. C. He managed to find a new wife. D. He felt more composed and positive. 7. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. A Digital Reunion with a Lost Love B. A Romantic Memory of a Late Wife C. Digital Echoes: How to Build an AI Companion D. Project December: A Platform for Programmers 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. D 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道，主要讲的是约书亚通过创建人工智能聊天机器人来与去世的妻子在情感上重新建立联系的故事。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“For years, Joshua had struggled with the lingering sorrow of losing his wife, Jessica, who died eight years ago.(多年来，约书亚一直难以摆脱失去妻子杰西卡（Jessica）的哀伤，杰西卡在八年前去世了。)”和第二段“Driven by a mixture of curiosity and desperate longing, Joshua built an AI version of Jessica using her old texts.(出于好奇与极度渴望的双重驱使，约书亚利用杰西卡过去的文字信息，构建了一个杰西卡的人工智能版本。)”可知，约书亚创建了聊天机器人是为了与妻子在情感上重新建立联系。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Joshua realized that the digital version of Jessica would “die” as well, but he determined never to “reboot” her, fearing that treating her like a restartable video game would cheapen the experience. Fearing another loss, he limited his conversations with the chatbot, returning only briefly on special occasions, say, Jessica’s birthday.(约书亚意识到，数字版的杰西卡也会“死亡”，但他决定永远不“重启”她，因为他担心将她当作可重新启动的电子游戏来对待会降低这种体验的价值。由于害怕再次失去她，他减少了与聊天机器人的交流，只在特殊场合（比如杰西卡的生日）短暂地与她交谈。)”可知，约书亚想延长与聊天机器人的陪伴时间。故选C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“In the months that followed, he’d felt calmer and more optimistic.(在接下来的几个月里，他感到更加平静和乐观。)”可知，聊天机器人对约书亚的影响是他感到更加镇定和积极。故选D。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段“Driven by a mixture of curiosity and desperate longing, Joshua built an AI version of Jessica using her old texts. The initial interaction sent a shiver through his soul. The chatbot captured Jessica’s unique voice, even her habit of using jokes to soften serious statements. For months, it served as a shelter where Joshua could finally unburden his long-buried sorrow.(出于好奇与极度渴望的双重驱使，约书亚利用杰西卡过去的文字信息，构建了一个杰西卡的人工智能版本。初次交流让他的灵魂为之一颤。这个聊天机器人捕捉到了杰西卡独特的声音，甚至她习惯用玩笑来缓和严肃陈述的特点也模仿得惟妙惟肖。几个月来，它成了约书亚的避风港，让他终于能够释放长久以来深埋心底的哀伤。)”可知，本文主要讲的是约书亚通过创建人工智能聊天机器人来与去世的妻子在情感上重新建立联系的故事，因此A选项“A Digital Reunion with a Lost Love(与逝去的爱人进行数字重逢)”这个标题最能概括文章的主题。故选A。 C “This is a day in which my pride to be prime minister of Australia has never been greater. This is world-leading. This is Australia showing enough is enough,” Albanese said as the country’s under-16s social media ban came into effect on Wednesday. Albanese pointed to gathered media including those from the BBC, CNN and from Japan. He said the world was watching. The news has indeed turned heads globally. Some countries have already announced an intention to follow suit, including Malaysia, Indonesia, Denmark and Norway. Many Australians support this ban, with almost two-thirds of voters agreeing with the new rule. Major social media companies, including TikTok and Instagram, were asked to follow the ban. At first, some companies expressed resistance or concern, but they all said they would obey by the time the ban started. They use different methods, like checking faces or asking for ID, to verify (验证) users’ ages. Carrying out the ban in practice, however, has proved far more difficult than designing it on paper. Large numbers of young people have already discovered methods to bypass the restrictions. The Prime Minister himself recounted that during a school visit, students openly admitted that many of their friends had “dodged it”. Online searches for ways to get around age-verification systems also surged dramatically, highlighting how quickly and creatively teenagers adapt to new rules. In spite of these setbacks, Australia’s e-Safety Commissioner, Julie Inman Grant, has insisted that the government will not be discouraged. She described the policy as part of a “long game” to safeguard children’s well-being. Authorities plan to monitor how many underage users are removed from social media platforms and to conduct research on whether the ban leads to measurable improvements in teenagers’ mental health and academic performance, including standardized test results. Through this approach, the government hopes to position Australia as a global leader in developing new strategies to keep young people safe online. Public reaction remains mixed. Some parents say it is a relief to have their children more present at home; others worry that isolated young people will lose vital online support. For Wayne Holdsworth, a Melbourne father whose son died after being bullied online, the law is a necessary step. He believes, combined with education, it will better equip teens to handle social media when they finally log back on at 16. 8. What did Albanese think of the ban in Paragraph 1? A. It was a global achievement. B. It was a universal standard. C. It was a fruitless attempt. D. It was a vital intervention. 9. How did social media companies react to the ban? A. They found new ways to make profits. B. They fully supported the new policy. C. They showed strong opposition to it. D. They respected regulatory power. 10. What does the e-Safety Commissioner’s “long game” imply? A. The ban will be continuously and globally updated. B. The government prepares for persistent commitment. C. Teenagers’ mental health will improve in an instant. D. Underage users will access media platforms occasionally. 11. What is the main idea of the text? A. Many countries will copy Australia’s social media ban. B. Australia’s under-16s ban meets support and challenges. C. Social media companies put forward age verification. D. Australian government gave way to public resistance. 【答案】8. A 9. D 10. B 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇新闻报道，文章讲述了澳大利亚颁发了对于16岁以下人群的社交媒体使用禁令，得到了一部分公众的支持，同时也带来了挑战。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段Albanese所说“This is a day in which my pride to be prime minister of Australia has never been greater. This is world-leading. This is Australia showing enough is enough(这一天，我作为澳大利亚总理的自豪感达到了前所未有的高度。这是世界领先的成就。这是澳大利亚展现出了“该停止的时候就该停止”的决心)”可知，Albanese认为，澳大利亚颁发了对于16岁以下的青少年的社交媒体使用禁令是一项全球性的成就。故选A。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Major social media companies, including TikTok and Instagram, were asked to follow the ban. At first, some companies expressed resistance or concern, but they all said they would obey by the time the ban started.(包括TikTok和Instagram在内的各大社交媒体公司都被要求遵守这项禁令。起初，一些公司表示有异议或存在担忧，但最终它们都表示会在禁令生效时遵守规定)”可知，社交媒体公司尊重监管权力，同意遵守规定。故选D。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“In spite of these setbacks, Australia’s e-Safety Commissioner, Julie Inman Grant, has insisted that the government will not be discouraged. She described the policy as part of a “long game” to safeguard children’s well-being. Authorities plan to monitor how many underage users are removed from social media platforms and to conduct research on whether the ban leads to measurable improvements in teenagers’ mental health and academic performance, including standardized test results.(尽管遭遇了这些挫折，澳大利亚的电子安全专员朱莉·英曼·格兰特仍坚称政府不会气馁。她称该政策是“长期战略”的一部分，旨在保障儿童的福祉。当局计划监测有多少未成年用户被从社交媒体平台中移除，并开展研究，以确定这一禁令是否能带来青少年心理健康和学业表现（包括标准化考试成绩）的显著改善)”可知，电子安全专员朱莉·英格曼·格兰特说禁令是长期政策，暗示了政府准备做出持续的承诺来保证儿童的福祉。故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段描述澳大利亚颁发了对于16岁以下的青少年的社交媒体使用禁令；第二段讲到澳大利亚居民的反映、社交媒体公司的应对；第三段讲到实施过程中的困难；第四段讲到政府的决心；最后一段描述公众的反映，由此可知，本文讲述了澳大利亚颁发了对于16岁以下的青少年的社交媒体使用禁令，得到了一部分的支持，同时也带来了挑战，B选项“澳大利亚针对16岁以下的青少年的禁令举措得到了支持，但也面临一些质疑。”符合本文主旨。故选B。 D In today’s fast-paced digital world, two powerful yet often overlooked approaches to learning are gaining attention: curiosity-driven inquiry and active content creation. The science podcast Tumble, for example, invites young listeners to explore real scientific questions — such as “Could dinosaurs burp?” or “What would happen if there were no trees?” — not by giving quick answers, but by walking them through how scientists investigate such mysteries. Episodes feature interviews with researchers, discussions of evidence, and honest admissions when answers remain uncertain. This mirrors how real science works: messy, collaborative, and full of wonder. Equally valuable is the act of creating one’s own learning materials. As educators increasingly suggest, designing a quiz isn’t just a review tool — it’s a deep cognitive exercise. When students craft questions about a topic they care about, they must organize knowledge, anticipate misunderstandings, and distinguish between surface facts and core concepts. A well-structured quiz typically includes 9 to 12 questions of varied difficulty, uses clear language, and often adds a playful — but not misleading — distractor to its options to keep participants engaged. Crucially, both approaches share a common principle: learning thrives when learners take ownership. Whether by asking bold questions like those on Tumble or by testing peers with self-made quizzes, students shift from passive recipients to active thinkers. Early classroom trials show that such methods improve long-term memory and boost motivation, especially among those who struggle with traditional learning. Of course, these strategies work best with guidance. Teachers can help students refine their questions, evaluate sources, and interpret feedback. But the core message remains: when education starts with genuine curiosity and empowers creation, it doesn’t just transmit knowledge — it cultivates scientific habits of mind. 12. What is a key feature of the podcast Tumble? A. It provides accurate answers to all scientific questions. B. It encourages memorization of basic scientific facts. C. It reflects the real process of scientific investigation. D. It replaces formal school science courses with audio. 13. The word “distractor” in Paragraph 2 most likely refers to ________. A. a fun but tricky option in a quiz B. a visual aid to enhance engagement C. a misleading and confusing question D. a difficult scientific term used in teaching 14. What is the author’s opinion of the teachers’ role? A Teachers focus on knowledge transmission only. B. Teachers should be given priority in education. C. Teachers act as guides rather than authorities. D. Teachers need to provide strict guidelines. 15. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To introduce digital learning tools for teenagers. B. To advocate curiosity-driven learning methods. C. To explain steps to create podcasts or quizzes. D. To criticize excessive reliance on technology. 【答案】12. C 13. A 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍好奇心驱动探究与主动创作两种学习法，以Tumble播客、自制测验为例，强调学习者自主主导，辅以教师引导，能提升记忆与动力，培养科学思维。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“This mirrors how real science works: messy, collaborative, and full of wonder.(这正反映了真正的科学研究的运作方式：纷繁复杂、需要团队合作，并充满了惊奇与探索的意味)”可知，Tumble播客的一个关键特点是它反映了科学探究的真实过程。故选C。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“Equally valuable is the act of creating one’s own learning materials. As educators increasingly suggest, designing a quiz isn’t just a review tool — it’s a deep cognitive exercise. When students craft questions about a topic they care about, they must organize knowledge, anticipate misunderstandings, and distinguish between surface facts and core concepts.(同样重要的是自己创作学习资料这一行为。正如教育者们所强调的那样，设计一份测验不仅仅是复习工具——它还是一种深度的认知训练。当学生针对自己感兴趣的主题来出题时，他们必须整理知识、预测可能出现的误解，并区分表面事实和核心概念)”以及后文“to keep participants engaged(以保持参与者的兴趣)”可知，限定条件为playful（有趣的）、not misleading（不具误导性）、属于选项中的内容，对应 “测验中有趣但有迷惑性、用于增加参与感的选项”。故划线词指的是“一个既有趣又具有挑战性的问答选项”。故选A。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Of course, these strategies work best with guidance.

Yet, as the agricultural sector moves forward, many people in society are looking back to their roots in terms of the food they eat. A “locavore” movement has emerged in the United States, encouraging people to eat foods grown locally and sustainably. ____16____. The United States’ agricultural output is among the highest in the world. Farms here are tremendously productive, thanks to advanced technology and massive inputs. ____17____. Professor Timothy Beach points out that this food system heavily depends on fossil fuels — both for machinery and fertilizer production. As global petrol reserves reduce, such dependence is turning into a growing threat to agricultural stability. Despite these challenges, the move toward sustainability is growing stronger. Farmers like Louise Keckler run small farms that supply fresh produce through community-supported agriculture networks. ____18____. This freshness not only improves nutrition but also helps consumers understand how climate change affects food systems. This personal connection fosters greater environmental awareness. Some experts also question whether the “locavore” movement is just a passing craze. ____19____. Professor Beach admits uncertainty but believes fully sustainable agriculture could still feed the nation. Professor Erin Barnett, however, calls it a lasting trend — a return to a more natural way of eating that aligns with human needs. ____20____. Urban residents are now growing tomatoes on balconies or herbs in window boxes. As Kirk Wilbur, a former urban farming advocate, notes, “No matter how small a space you have, you still have enough room to grow some food.” Local eating is no longer limited to rural areas — it’s becoming a lifestyle accessible to all. A. In fact, the movement is expanding into cities B. They can inspire more responsible consumption habits C. However, this productivity comes at a high environmental cost D. It shortens supply chains and strengthens producer-consumer ties E. Many believe that global trade ensures food security better than local systems F. Whether temporary or not, they agree it’s made supermarkets rethink sourcing G. Through this model, households get food harvested only hours before delivery 【答案】16. D 17. C 18. G 19. E 20. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了美国“本地膳食者”运动的兴起，分析了其优势与兴起缘由，并探讨了该运动是短暂风潮还是持久趋势的争议，同时指出它正从农村扩展到城市生活方式中。 【16题详解】 前文“A “locavore” movement has emerged in the United States, encouraging people to eat foods grown locally and sustainably. (在美国，一场“本地膳食者”运动已经兴起，该运动鼓励人们食用本地且可持续种植的食物。)”指出“本地膳食者”运动兴起，并给出其定义，空处需补充该运动带来的好处，因此D项“It shortens supply chains and strengthens producer-consumer ties (它缩短了供应链，并加强了生产者与消费者之间的联系)”符合语境，点明本地化饮食的两个关键优势，承接前文。故选D。 【17题详解】 前文“Farms here are tremendously productive, thanks to advanced technology and massive inputs. (这里的农场由于采用了先进的技术和大量投入，所以生产效率极高。)”赞扬美国农业因技术先进而产量很高，后文“Professor Timothy Beach points out that this food system heavily depends on fossil fuels — both for machinery and fertilizer production. As global petrol reserves reduce, such dependence is turning into a growing threat to agricultural stability. (Timothy Beach教授指出，这种食物生产体系严重依赖化石燃料——无论是用于机械设备的运转，还是用于化肥的生产。随着全球石油储量的减少，这种过度依赖正逐渐成为对农业稳定性的日益严重威胁。)”引述教授观点，指出这种农业体系严重依赖化石燃料，并构成了威胁，空处应包含转折，从赞扬高产过渡到指出环境代价，因此C项“However, this productivity comes at a high environmental cost (然而，这种生产力是以高昂的环境代价换来的)”符合语境，指出前文高产存在的问题，引出后文具体的代价。故选C。 【18题详解】 前文“Farmers like Louise Keckler run small farms that supply fresh produce through community-supported agriculture networks. (像Louise Keckler这样的农民经营着小农场，通过社区支持的农业网络供应新鲜农产品。)”以农民Louise Keckler为例，说明他们通过这种网络供应农产品，后文“This freshness not only improves nutrition but also helps consumers understand how climate change affects food systems. (这种新鲜度不仅提升了食物的营养价值，还帮助消费者了解气候变化对食品体系的影响。)”指出保证新鲜度的双重益处，空处需说明这种模式如何带来新鲜度。因此G项“Through this model, households get food harvested only hours before delivery (通过这种模式，家庭获得的食物在配送前几小时才被采摘)”符合语境，解释新鲜度的来源，承前启后。故选G。 【19题详解】 前文“Some experts also question whether the “locavore” movement is just a passing craze. (一些专家也质疑“本地膳食者”运动是否仅仅是一时的流行热潮。)”提到专家质疑该运动能否持续，后文“Professor Beach admits uncertainty but believes fully sustainable agriculture could still feed the nation. (Beach教授承认存在不确定性，但他坚信完全可持续的农业仍能够养活整个国家。)”指出Beach教授承认不确定性但相信可能性，空处需补充质疑的论据，因此E项“Many believe that global trade ensures food security better than local systems (许多人认为，全球贸易在保障粮食安全方面比地方性系统更为有效。)”符合语境，从保障粮食安全角度提供质疑论据，承接前文，与后文Beach教授的反驳形成对比。故选E。 【20题详解】 后文“Urban residents are now growing tomatoes on balconies or herbs in window boxes. As Kirk Wilbur, a former urban farming advocate, notes, “No matter how small a space you have, you still have enough room to grow some food.” (如今，城市居民们在阳台上种植西红柿，或者在窗台花盆里种植香草。正如前城市农业倡导者Kirk Wilbur所指出的那样：“无论你的空间有多小，你仍然有足够的空间来种植一些食物。”)”描述城市居民在阳台、窗台种植食物的现象，并引用专家的话说明该运动已进入城市空间，空处位于段首，是该段的主题句，应指出该运动向城市扩展，因此A项“In fact, the movement is expanding into cities (事实上，这项运动正在向城市扩展)”符合语境，后文内容是对其具体例证和阐述。故选A。 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，从各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳答案。 In the world of business, I have always believed that we aren’t just selling goods; we are selling possibilities.
