B John Arrillaga Sr, the pioneering Silicon Valley developer, was one of Stanford’s greatest benefactors (捐助者), leaving a legacy literally built into every corner of campus. Over decades, Arrillaga’s generous donations and hands-on efforts reshaped Stanford’s campus. Though best known for athletic facilities, his true impact extended far beyond. As his longtime friend John Etchemendy noted, “Hundreds of projects bear his mark, yet rarely his name.” Nowhere was this quiet dedication clearer than in the reconstruction of Stanford Stadium. He personally funded and oversaw every detail — from selecting palm trees to designing seats to mapping walkways — yet refused to put his name on it. Born into a working-class family, young Arrillaga couldn’t afford a proper suit for his high school graduation, having to borrow an ill-fitting jacket with sleeves that barely reached his wrists. He unexpectedly attended Stanford on a basketball scholarship, working multiple campus jobs to make ends meet. After playing professionally in Spain, he returned to develop Silicon Valley offices during the tech boom, becoming a millionaire. True to his humble beginnings, he started repaying Stanford almost immediately after graduation — beginning with modest athletic department gifts that grew into historic donations exceeding $250 million. Through his scholarship programs, he’s helped over 300 students facing similar financial challenges. One day, a young donor moved by Arrillaga’s generosity shared how witnessing the selfless giving had profoundly shaped his devotion to charitable work. Realizing the ripple (涟漪) effect of his actions through others, Arrillaga months later made a rare exception: he permitted his name to appear on just one building — not for personal distinction, but as a nod to the power of leading by example. While his benefaction helped communities across Silicon Valley through donations to police stations, libraries, and other public spaces, his strongest ties always remained with Stanford University. 4. What was Arrillaga’s key role in the stadium reconstruction? A. A full-project supporter. B. A stadium co-investor. C. A landscape designer. D. A building material producer. 5. What motivated Arrillaga’s lifelong commitment to Stanford? A. The millionaire lifestyle experience. B. The desire for public recognition. C. The fate-changing scholarship. D. The business investment strategies. 6. Why did Arrillaga finally allow his name to appear on one building? A. To accept praise from the public. B. To show the ripple effect of athletics. C. To fulfill a request from his university. D. To inspire more charitable actions. 7. What does Arrillaga’s experience show? A. Wealth necessitates public display. B. Silent impact outweighs visible recognition. C. Humble beginnings can lead to fortunes. D. Athletic excellence drives social change. C When it comes to cooling the planet, tropical forests serve as “carbon sinks” — their trees absorb carbon dioxide (CO2) from the air. Now, a new study finds one Australian rainforest is doing the opposite. The research, published in Nature, analyzed data from wet tropical rainforests in Australia, which scientists had tracked for nearly 50 years. By examining woody biomass from the rainforest, which typically holds a large amount of carbon, researchers found the forest is releasing more carbon than it absorbs, and this switch happened about 25 years ago. Since trees release stored carbon back into the atmosphere when they die and break down, this shift indicates that trees in this Australian rainforest are dying faster than they were decades ago, said lead author Hannah Carle, a forest ecosystem researcher at Western Sydney University. Drier air, higher temperatures and water shortages might all play a role. This is the first rainforest recorded as switching from a carbon sink to a carbon source, and Carle added the phenomenon could reflect a declining ecosystem in Australian wet rainforests overall. “The wet tropics in Australia occupy a bit of a warmer, drier climate space than tropical forests on other continents, thus potentially serving as an analog for what tropical forests will experience in other parts of the world,” said Carle. Previous research suggested that tropical rainforests increase their capacity for carbon storage in response to consistently increasing CO2 in the atmosphere. This half-century of data challenges that. Raphael Trouve, who researches forest dynamics at the University of Melbourne in Australia and was not involved in the study, told The Guardian that data sets like this one can help track changes in the climate and environment. “It allows us to put the theory up against reality and better understand how these systems work.” 8. Which aspect of the Australian rainforest does the research focus on? A. The makeup of woody biomass. B. The effects on climate change. C. The level of carbon concentration. D. The change in carbon balance. 9. What does the shift in paragraph 3 show? A. Rising tree death rates. B. Stable weather patterns. C. Modest tropical rainfall. D. Instant ecosystem collapse 10. What does the underlined word “analog” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Different model. B. Sustainable system. C. Similar example. D. Historical background. 11. How does Raphael Trouve view these long-term data sets? A. They provide insights into the truth. B. They offer solutions to climate change. C. They are consistent with popular beliefs. D. They are independent of historical data. D Most of us were raised to think that smart people always know the right answers. From gold stars in school to performance reviews in the office, we’re rewarded for certainty. Yet as Bidhan Parmar, professor at the UVA Darden School of Business, argues in his new book, Radical Doubt, “Certainty somehow blinds us. The only thing that spoon-feeding teaches us is the shape of a spoon”. His point is unsettling: The very habits we rely on to feel smart — rushing toward the final goals, simplifying complex problems, sugar-coating our initial reactions — are the ones that keep us from making wise choices. The hardest problems we face in life, whether in careers, relationships, or society, rarely come with single right answers. They’re what Parmar calls “moments of unease”: multi-criteria choices that involve competing goals, high risks, and deep uncertainty. The old playbook of being a “right-answer getter” not only fails here, but backfires. As Parmar explains, “We often treat complex problems like simple ones until we are faced with the reality.” Our personal and professional environments are more uncertain than ever. Technology evolves faster than regulation, workplaces are more diverse, and social standards are shifting. I’ve watched firsthand that seasoned leaders ignore warning signs because they were addicted to “feeling right.” They simplified the situation when they should have paused or explored, and missed the opportunity that doubt was pointing them toward. Our brains run on interconnected systems: the Pursue system (seek rewards), the Protect system (avoid threats), and the Pause-and-Piece-Together system (engage doubt and reframe). Prior evidence-based studies report that most of us let the first two dominate, charging ahead or withdrawing in fear. Grounded in behavioral science, the wiser move is to take enough time to notice complexity, question assumptions, and treat our intuition (直觉) not as the only decision but as an alternative. In practice, this means holding competing goals side by side, and learning to say not “I know,” but “I’m learning.” 12. What is implied by mentioning the spoon-feeding? A. Certainty might ruin decision-making. B. Average people can learn few facts. C. Smart habits secure positive outcomes. D. Simple tools secretly boost creativity. 13. Which might be a “moment of unease”? A. Profiting from stable investments with spare funds. B. Trying to find a job overseas when a parent falls ill. C. Treating difficult problems with one’s first intuition. D. Continuing to develop in one’s familiar research field. 14. What can make leaders fail according to the author? A. Shifting standards. B. Lacking experience. C. Ignoring principles. D. Overlooking doubts. 15. What is mainly talked about in the last paragraph? A. Intuition types and brain functions. B. Initial doubts and competing goals. C. Brain systems and connection forms. D. Scientific theories and workable tips. 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。 When Marie Benton first moved to London in 2008, joining a choir (合唱团) helped her fit in the new environment. ____16____ With her tireless efforts, the Choir with No Name (TCWNN) was officially born.

Some kids ran back and forth shouting loudly, while others rode scooters (滑板车) fast down the sidewalk, nearly bumping into passersby — several even cut through neighbours’ front yards, destroying flowers in the neat gardens. He signed softly and turned back inside, his eyes falling on the cover of a dog-eared book — a gift from Grandma. A wave of warmth swept over him. He’d once been too restless to sit down. It was Grandma that had turned his dislike of reading into passion. Those boring afternoons were turned into adventures because Grandma always had a way to make reading feel like treasure hunts. With newfound passion, he stepped into a wonderland through those pages. Suddenly, he was drugged back to reality from his sweet memories by the yelling from a neighbour, “Ruined my garden again? Can’t you kids read some books?” An idea popped into Todd’s mind. Why not build a small book box right in his front yard? Wasn’t this a perfect way to change the messy community around him? Without hesitation, he crafted the box from old wooden pieces, carved a tiny shelf inside and put in his favourite children’s books, including the gift from Grandma. For the sign on the box, he painted “Reading Comer for Kids”. He placed the box right under the big oak tree where the kids dashed past every single day. Yet the box sat lonely for days. Kids still rushed past, never sparing a glance. The neighborhood didn’t shift one bit. Feeling defeated, Todd walked out to the box and picked up a book. As he opened it, a small, faded sticker slipped out from the pages, landing on the grass. It was the shiny star he had been hunting for — one of the “secret treasures” Grandma used to hide for him to find. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右： 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Recalling Grandma’s tricks, Todd knew what he could do. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ With more kids drawn to the magic of stories, the community changed. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 2026年2月高三级综合训练 英语 第二部分 阅读理解(共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳答案。 A 【1~3题答案】 【答案】1.

He hunted through his old books, hiding small stickers, colorful paper clips and tiny toy figures as “secret treasures” between the pages, just like Grandma used to do. He also added a note on the box: “Find the hidden treasures in books!” The next morning, he waited quietly by the window. A boy riding a scooter slowed down, curious about the note. He stopped, opened a book and let out a happy shout when he found a star sticker. With more kids drawn to the magic of stories, the community changed. The noisy shouts and scooter sounds faded, replaced by soft reading voices under the oak tree. Kids no longer ran wildly or destroyed gardens; instead, they sat together, sharing interesting plots from the books. Neighbours smiled when they saw the quiet reading corner, some even bringing their own old books to add to the box. Todd looked at the lively scene, holding Grandma’s book tightly. He knew Grandma would be proud — his small idea had turned the messy neighborhood into a warm, joyful place filled with the charm of stories. 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
