However, a recent scientific report shows that the world lost 300,000 square kilometers of forests in 2024. That’s an area about the size of Italy. According to the report, for the first time ever, fires were the biggest cause of forest loss. ▲ . This country has the largest area of rainforest in the world. Last year, it suffered from a long period of dry weather. Wildfires broke out and spread. As a result, about 25,000 square kilometers of the primary rainforest disappeared in the country. This meant fires caused 66% of its forest loss. The second biggest cause of the world’s forest loss was clearing land for farming. As people need more farmland, they keep cutting down forests every year. In 2024, the area of forest cleared for farming increased by 14% worldwide. The situation was more severe in developing countries. For example, Bolivia’s forest loss doubled in 2024. Without doubt, something must be done. Experts call on governments, businesses and people to work together before it is too late. It seems that China has set a good example. Thanks to cooperation at many levels, China had the biggest increase in forest area among all countries in 2024. That year alone, newly-planted trees in China covered an area of nearly 45,000 square kilometers, according to a news report. If more countries start to take action like China, the earth will become a greener planet. 1．The size of Italy is mentioned in Paragraph 1 to show _______. A．why we need forests. B．where a disaster spread. C．what climate change is. D．how terrible forest loss was. 2．Which of the following can be put in “ ▲ ” in Paragraph 2? A．Farming is a reason. B．Take Brazil for example. C．Wildfires were stopped. D．Read the report carefully. 3．What does the underlined word “severe” in Paragraph 3 mean? A．Serious. B．Boring. C．Balanced. D．Positive. 4．What was the reason for the growth of China’s forest area in 2024? A．Enough land. B．Nice weather. C．Good teamwork. D．Green technology. 5．What is the best title for the passage? A．Rainforest Became Larger B．Farmland Area Grew Rapidly C．Forest Fires Caused Pollution D．Forest Loss Worried the World 【答案】1．D 2．B 3．A 4．C 5．D 【导语】本文主要讨论了全球森林面积锐减的严峻现状，并分析了森林消失的主要原因。 1．推理判断题。根据“That’s an area about the size of Italy”可知，通过将森林消失面积与意大利国土面积对比，强调森林损失的严重程度。故选D。 2．推理判断题。根据“This country has the largest area of rainforest in the world”可知，空白处需引出具体国家案例来支撑前文“火灾是森林消失主因”的论点。故选B。 3．词句猜测题。根据“Bolivia’s forest loss doubled in 2024”可知，发展中国家森林消失问题更“严重”，与“severe”同义的选项为Serious。故选A。 4．细节理解题。根据“Thanks to cooperation at many levels, China had the biggest increase in forest area”可知，中国森林面积增长的原因是多方协作。故选C。 5．最佳标题题。文章围绕全球森林消失的危机展开，通过数据和案例分析问题，并呼吁行动。D选项“森林减少令世界担忧”最贴合主旨。故选D。 2025年·广州卷 A It was going to be a long afternoon. Aunt Jen and Uncle Pete were visiting, which meant I had to play with Amy. I was mixing salt with mud (泥) in the garden. Amy was dancing around like a butterfly. Maybe she could help prepare food for the butterflies. “Okay, Amy,” I said. “You can help spread this salt on the mud.” She took the salt shaker. “Are you growing butterflies like plants, Simon?” “Questions again!” I shook my head. This little girl had a lot to learn—just like me at her age, when my family started planting this butterfly garden. “Some butterflies need salt to stay healthy,” I explained. “Once, a butterfly sat right here on my arm, tasting my salty sweat.” “I want a butterfly to sit on me!” cried Amy. “I want to wear it like a flower!” “Butterflies don’t grow like flowers,” I said. “They fly wherever they like.” “Aww...make them come to me,” Amy said. “They will. They love our garden’s plants, with nice leaves and juice, and this...” I said, pointing to the salty mud. “I don’t like mud,” Amy said. “See, my new pink shoes are muddy—and pink’s my favorite color!” I tried to distract her attention. “Do you know butterflies have favorite colors, too?” “Pink?” Amy asked, starting to smile again. “They like purple better, and orange,” I explained, pointing to the nearby butterfly weed with dark orange flowers. “Look, a butterfly is drinking the juice of the flowers.” I kept talking so she wouldn’t try to catch it. “Butterfly weed is a perfect host plant. Butterflies lay eggs here, which become caterpillars, then chrysalises, and finally beautiful butterflies...” As I spoke, Amy saw a big bee. “Shoo! No bees allowed!” she cried. “Hey, it’s okay. Butterflies and bees both work for flowers,” I told her. “Butterflies work?” she asked. “Yes, listen...” We stayed in the garden until sunset. Then I smelt bread and suggested, “Let’s rest in the hammock.” As we lay together, Amy noticed a butterfly leaving a flower and cried, “Simon, it’s like a flying flower!” That made me smile. We swung gently back and forth, happy just to watch all the flowers—the ones that fly and those that don’t—until Mom called us in to dinner. 1．Why did Simon mix the salt with the mud? A．To play games with Amy. B．To prepare food for butterflies. C．To make the plants grow better. D．To make it safer for Amy to dance. 2．How did Simon feel when Amy asked her first question? A．He couldn’t believe how silly Amy was. B．He was surprised at Amy’s rich imagination. C．He was a bit impatient but also very understanding. D．He was glad that Amy was curious about butterflies. 3．What does the underlined phrase “distract her attention” mean in the story? A．Clean the mud off her shoes. B．Change her mind about mud. C．Keep her away from the mud. D．Get her to forget about the mud. 4．Why did Simon feel happy at the end of the story? A．The bread for dinner smelt good. B．He enjoyed the afternoon with Amy. C．The hammock was really comfortable. D．Amy thanked him for the butterfly lesson. 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．D 4．B 【导语】本文主要讲述了Simon和表妹Amy在花园里度过的一个下午，Simon通过向Amy解释关于蝴蝶的知识，成功转移了她对泥巴的注意力，两人一起享受了观察蝴蝶和花朵的时光。 1．细节理解题。根据“Maybe she could help prepare food for the butterflies.”以及“Some butterflies need salt to stay healthy”可知，Simon混合盐和泥是为了给蝴蝶准备食物，因为有些蝴蝶需要盐来保持健康。故选B。 2．推理判断题。根据“‘Questions again!’ I shook my head. This little girl had a lot to learn—just like me at her age, when my family started planting this butterfly garden.”可知，当Amy问第一个问题时，Simon摇了摇头，觉得她有很多要学，这表现出他有点不耐烦，但同时也表现出他很理解Amy的好奇心，愿意教她。故选C。 3．词义猜测题。根据“‘I don’t like mud,’ Amy said. ‘See, my new pink shoes are muddy—and pink’s my favorite color!’”可知，Amy不喜欢泥巴，她的新粉色鞋子沾上了泥巴，她很不喜欢。再根据后文Simon开始谈论蝴蝶喜欢的颜色，试图转移Amy的注意力，让她不再关注泥巴。因此，“distract her attention”在这里的意思是“转移她的注意力”，让她不再注意泥巴。故选D。 4．推理判断题。根据“That made me smile. We swung gently back and forth, happy just to watch all the flowers—the ones that fly and those that don’t—until Mom called us in to dinner.”可知，Simon在故事结尾感到开心是因为他和Amy一起享受了一个愉快的下午，一起观察了蝴蝶和花朵。故选B。 B When I was young, my father took me outside to see the stars. Once we saw a comet (彗星)! It was the first comet I’d seen but wasn’t the last. My name is Caroline Herschel. I was born in Hanover, Germany in 1750. When I was 22, I moved to England to stay with my older brother, William. He was a musician and he offered me singing lessons. I helped him with housework in return. I practiced hard and soon started singing at his concerts. Life changed when William became interested in astronomy. He read about space late into the night. Breakfast often turned into a lesson about stars. I learned a lot from him. And we even started working together on a big project: building telescopes—the special tools for seeing faraway things. To make the perfect mirrors for our telescopes, we heated metals and shaped them using special molds (模具). These molds were made from strange things, like dry horse waste. I had to break it into small bits. It was dirty work, but I didn’t mind. Someone had to do it. Making the mirrors smooth was very difficult. William invented a machine to help, but he still had to work without stopping for hours once he began. He couldn’t even stop to eat, so I fed him and read stories to keep him happy and relaxed. In 1781, William discovered something fantastic—a new planet! King George was so glad that he made William his astronomer. William made a telescope just for me. And I was able to search the sky along with him. On August 1, 1786, I found something special too—a comet! I watched it carefully for one more night and discovered it was real. Now everyone is talking about my comet. They call it the Lady’s Comet. This is the first comet I’ve ever discovered, but I don’t think it will be the last. Historical Note: After Caroline discovered her first comet, King George paid her to be William’s assistant (助手). She was one of the first women astronomers to be paid for her work. She went on to find seven more comets herself between 1786 and 1797. 1．Why did Caroline move to England? A．To live with her brother. B．To study at a music school. C．To sing at famous concerts. D．To look after a sick relative. 2．In what order did the following happen in Caroline’s life? a. She discovered her first comet.    b. Her brother built a telescope for her. c. Her brother became interested in space.    d. She built telescopes together with her brother. e. She got paid by King George to help with her brother’s work. A．c-d-b-a-e B．c-d-e-b-a C．c-b-d-a-e D．c-b-a-e-d 3．How many comets did Caroline discover by herself? A．One. B．Seven. C．Eight. D．Nine. 4．Which of the following best describes Caroline and William’s working relationship? A．Caroline gave William more help. B．Caroline had to do all the dirty work. C．William took care of most of the work. D．They were important to each other’s success. 【答案】1．A 2．A 3．C 4．D 【导语】本文主要讲述了德国天文学家卡罗琳·赫歇尔的生平。 1．细节理解题。根据“I moved to England to stay with my older brother, William”可知卡罗琳搬到英国是为了与哥哥同住。故选A。 2．细节理解题。根据“Life changed when William became interested in astronomy.”可知，她的哥哥威廉对天文学产生兴趣，这是最先发生的，对应c；根据“And we even started working together on a big project: building telescopes”可知，兄妹俩一起制作望远镜，对应d，排除CD；根据“In 1781...William made a telescope just for me”可知，威廉为卡罗琳制作了一台望远镜，对应b，排除B。故选A。 3．细节理解题。根据“Historical Note: After Caroline discovered her first comet... She went on to find seven more comets herself between 1786 and 1797.”可知，卡罗琳先发现1颗彗星，之后又发现7颗，总共发现8颗。故选C。 4．推理判断题。根据“And we even started working together on a big project: building telescopes”以及“He couldn’t even stop to eat, so I fed him and read stories to keep him happy and relaxed.”可知卡罗琳和威廉一起制造望远镜，在威廉工作时卡罗琳喂他吃饭、给他读故事，他们的工作是相互配合的，对彼此的成功都很重要。故选D。 C June 6, 2025·Issue 66    SUNSHINE SCHOOL WEEKLY A Taste of Lychees How much do you know about lychees? ● China has been growing lychees for over 2,000 years.

But will we be able to read today’s digital (数字的) books in hundreds of years? Librarians are worried. Even now, we can’t open some files (文件) from 20 or 25 years ago. Will our digital works be lost in a digital black hole? Will we face the loss of valuable information? Technology is changing fast. Old ways of keeping information are gone now, or they are no longer supported by new technology. For example, many people used floppy discs (软盘) to save files years ago, but today few machines can open them. Also, millions of songs and music pieces were saved on tapes or CDs, but now most old music players no longer work. Another problem is that websites often change or close down, and all the information on them can fall into the digital black hole. Books, however, are quite easy to keep. We don’t need special tools or technology to read them. If you keep them in a dry and safe place, they will stay safe for a long time. Li Shizhen’s great medical book Ben Cao Gang Mu came out in 1593. Amazingly, three copies from the first printing still survive today. That’s not bad for a book more than 400 years old. Today, to some researchers, printed books remain a safe way to keep information. In 2014, a professional group began to raise money to print a famous online encyclopedia into 1,000 books. This would make sure that even if digital technology fails, the knowledge can still be kept. For now, when it comes to storing information, printed copies seem to be the safest choice. However, future technology might develop and provide new ways to solve the problem of the digital black hole. Time will tell. 1．What happens if our digital works fall into a digital black hole? A．They are carefully kept. B．They cannot be understood. C．They cannot be read or reached. D．They are saved in a wrong place. 2．What is Paragraph 2 mainly about? A．How music players are developing. B．How technology is changing over time. C．Why old machines are no longer used today. D．Why technology may cause information loss. 3．Why does the writer mention Ben Cao Gang Mu? A．To discuss why this book is still important. B．To show printed books can last for a long time. C．To explain how easy it is to keep printed books. D．To tell when the earliest printed book came out. 4．What would the writer most probably agree with? A．Libraries should keep more digital books. B．Digital books are less valuable than printed ones. C．Technology will soon solve the problem of the digital black hole. D．Technology is still looking for better ways to keep information. 【答案】1．C 2．D 3．B 4．D 【导语】本文主要介绍了数字作品可能面临的信息丢失问题，指出随着技术的快速变化，旧的信息保存方式可能不再受支持，导致数字作品陷入“数字黑洞”，同时强调了纸质书籍在信息保存方面的优势，但也提到未来技术可能会发展出新的解决方案。 1．细节理解题。根据“Will our digital works be lost in a digital black hole? Will we face the loss of valuable information?”可知，如果数字作品陷入“数字黑洞”，我们将面临有价值信息的丢失，即这些作品将无法被读取或访问。故选C。 2．段落大意题。根据“Technology is changing fast. Old ways of keeping information are gone now, or they are no longer supported by new technology”以及本段内容可知，第二段主要围绕技术快速变化展开，提到旧的保存信息的方式不再适用，如软盘、旧音乐播放器等无法使用，网站信息可能消失等，都是在说明技术可能导致信息丢失。故选D。 3．推理判断题。根据“Books, however, are quite easy to keep. We don’t need special tools or technology to read them”以及“Li Shizhen’s great medical book Ben Cao Gang Mu came out in 1593. Amazingly, three copies from the first printing still survive today”可知，作者提到《本草纲目》是为了展示纸质书籍能够长时间保存的特点。故选B。 4．推理判断题。根据“For now, when it comes to storing information, printed copies seem to be the safest choice. However, future technology might develop and provide new ways to solve the problem of the digital black hole”可知，作者认为目前纸质书籍是保存信息的最安全选择，但未来技术可能会发展出新的解决方案来应对“数字黑洞”问题，即技术在寻找更好的信息保存方式。故选D。 2024年·深圳卷 A When he was a teenager, Hunter Adams was very unhappy and he spent many years in a special hospital for people with mental (精神的) health problems. When he left the hospital, Adams decided to become a doctor, so he went to a medical school in Virginia, the USA．But when he was there, he did things in a different way. For example, he didn’t like the doctors’ white coats, so he wore shirts with flowers on them when he visited his patients and he tried to make them laugh. The doctors at the medical school didn’t like Adams because he was too different. But Adams believed that people in hospital need more than medicine. He saw unhappy and lonely people, and he tried to help them. He spent a lot of time with children in hospital and often dressed up like a clown to make the children laugh. When he finished medical school and became a doctor, Adams opened his own hospital, called “The Gesundheit Institute”, together with some other doctors. They wanted it to be a place with a different way of working with sick people. Hunter Adams became famous during the 1980s, and in 1998, Universal Pictures made a film about his life. It was very successful. In the film (called Patch Adams), Robin Williams played Adams. Williams said, “Adams is a really warm person, who believes that patients need a doctor who is a friend. I enjoyed playing him.” 1．When did Adams have mental health problems? A．After he left medical school. B．During the 1980s. C．When he was a teenage boy. D．After the film came out. 2．Why did the doctors at the medical school dislike Adams? A．Because he was a warm person. B．Because he had mental health problems. C．Because he was a clown. D．Because he wasn’t the same as others. 3．The Gesundheit Institute _________. A．was a hospital B．belonged to Universal Pictures C．could make films D．was a medical school 4．According to the passage, which statement is NOT true? A．Adams wore shirts instead of white uniforms when visiting patients. B．Robin Williams believed that patients need a doctor who is a friend. C．In Adams’ opinion, not only medicine was needed for patients. D．Robin Williams was an actor. 5．The passage mainly tells us about ________. A．how to cheer up patients B．people with mental health problems C．a film about Adams D．a doctor named Hunter Adams 【答案】1．C 2．D 3．A 4．B 5．D 【导语】本文讲述了Hunter Adam这位著名的医生的人生经历和事迹。 1．细节理解题。根据第一段“When he was a teenager, ... he spent many years in a special hospital for people with mental (精神的) health problems.”可知，Hunter Adams在青少年时期患上了精神疾病。故选C。 2．细节理解题。根据第二段“The doctors at the medical school didn’t like Adams because he was too different.”可知，因为Hunter Adams的一些做法不同于其他人，所以医院的医生不喜欢他。故选D。 3．细节理解题。根据第三段“Adams opened his own hospital, called ‘The GesundheitInstitute’,”可知，Gesundheit Institute是一家医院。故选A。 4．细节理解题。根据最后一段“Adams is a really warm person, who believes that patients need a doctor who is a friend.”可知，（Hunter）Adams认为病人需要的是朋友般的医生，而非Robin Williams，Robin Williams是在扮演Hunter Adams时表达了对Adams的看法。故选B。 5．主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了一个名叫Hunter Adams的医生，他的人生经历以及事迹。故选D。 B After a 10-year project to count tuna and other large fish in the world's oceans, scientists have made a very surprising discovery: these fish are almost gone. Because of too much fishing, almost 90 percent of the worldwide population of large fish—the ones we usually eat—has disappeared. If we don’t act, these animals will totally disappear. That will influence every animal in the ocean. The demand for fish is growing. Almost a billion people around the world get their protein (蛋白质) mostly from fish. Doctors praise seafood for being low in fat. But what seems like a healthy choice for humans is causing a disaster to our oceans. “People are consuming (消费) too much,” says Lance Morgan, a scientist at the Marine Conservation Biology Institute. A dish of tuna in restaurants costs more than just one animal's life. When fish like tuna disappear from the ecosystem (生态系统), the ocean’s food chain (链) breaks down. Animals such as sharks, which normally eat tuna, may die because they find no food. The news may be scary, but taking action from now on can prevent harm that hasn’t happened yet. World organizations are ordering countries to stop fishing too much. The Monterey Bay Aquarium gives seafood choices to anyone hoping to keep healthy without destroying the environment. “If you care about wildlife, first spend time and think about your own values and beliefs,” says Morgan. “Then decide what you’re going to eat.” 1．How does the writer start the text? A．By giving a fact. B．By asking a question. C．By telling a story. D．By using a saying. 2．What does the underlined word “demand” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A．Wish. B．Support. C．Need. D．Price. 3．From Paragraph 3, we know that ________. A．if sharks die out, tuna will die out soon B．tuna will be more popular in restaurants C．tuna plays an important role in the ecosystem D．tuna disappeared because they found no food 4．What’s the purpose of the text? A．To tell people to stop polluting our oceans. B．To tell people to protect wildlife in oceans. C．To tell people to avoid eating too much seafood. D．To tell people to live a balanced and healthy life. 5．What does the last paragraph of the article explain ________.

He searched carefully in the old, dusty items, trying to find some hidden treasures. But there was nothing valuable. Disappointed, Andy decided to stop the work. Just then, he discovered a bundle (捆) of yellowed letters and a beautiful wooden box. He handed them to Mom quickly. Mom’s eyes lit up. “Look! Letters from Leo! Granny will be excited! She thought they had been thrown away.” Andy turned to his mother. “Leo?” “He was Granny’s beloved elder brother. He made her the box for her birthday. But it was locked up by him as soon as it was done. For so many years, nobody knew where the key was.” Curious, Andy picked that box and letters up, and then took them to the kitchen. Granny was preparing dinner there. At the sight of the box, Granny sighed, “Leo made this for me to put something special in before he joined the army. But he locked it up and hid the key. He said he would send me clues to find the key by letter. We did get some letters from him, but none had clues. His final letter arrived just after we heard the heartbreaking news...” Granny’s voice trembled (颤抖), “My mother was so sad that she tore (撕) it in half. I thought she had thrown away all the letters.” Granny watched Andy spread the letters on the table. Among them, there were two pieces apart. “Leo did send clues in his last letter, Granny. Let’s glue the two pieces together.” Andy said. Granny picked the letter up and read, “Dear little sister, ... Nonsense (胡言乱语),” Granny frowned (皱眉). Andy looked at the paper carefully, then suddenly he said, “Wait! Maybe we need to read down, instead of across.” “You need to read this aloud for me to understand,” Granny said. Andy read the words slowly and clearly while Granny was listening carefully. Granny’s eyes opened wide. “Leo was using homophones (同音异形词)!” Granny smiled. “Andy, go to the dining room and bring back the painting of a sunflower.” Andy went away quickly. In a few seconds, he returned with the painting in his hands. On the back of the painting, they saw Leo wrote another clue in pencil, still using homophones. Andy read, “Look above the WHOLE WEAR rain doesn’t come down. SEA the broken clock? THEIR! Inside!” Andy rushed to the fireplace, and then gave a clock to Granny. “This clock has never kept time.” Granny opened the clock’s tiny glass door and reached inside. “Over all those years, it has been right here, yet I don’t know,” Granny said. She opened the box with the key and looked into it. There was a photo of a little sister and her elder brother. On the back of the photo was printed: I NEW you’d worked it out. Use this box for all your special treasures. Love, Leo. Granny gently placed the photo and the letters inside the box. “My treasures,” she said softly. 1．What information about Leo might be inferred from the passage? A．He wasn’t good at wood work. B．He didn’t love his little sister. C．He lost his life after he left the army. D．He liked playing a word game. 2．What did the underlined “it” refer to? A．The box. B．The clock. C．The key. D．The photo. 3．Which of the following shows the correct order of the events that happened in the story? a. Andy helped Granny find the key.    b. Leo made a nice wooden box for Granny. c. Andy helped Mum clean up the attic.    d. Leo wrote the last letter to his family. A．b—d—c—a B．b—a—c—d C．c—d—a—b D．c—b—d—a 4．What may be the best title of the story? A．Granny’s beloved brother B．Finding clues to a lost key C．Granny’s birthday present D．A treasure hunting game 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．A 4．B 【导语】本文讲述了安迪在打扫阁楼时发现曾祖母的信件和一个木盒，通过解读信中的同音异形词线索，最终找到钥匙并打开盒子的故事。 1．文中提到利奥通过“homophones（同音异形词）”在信中留下线索，如“go TWO that room”实为“go to that room”，说明他喜欢玩文字游戏。 2．划线句所在段落提到：“Andy rushed to the fireplace, and then gave a clock to Granny.”，随后Granny打开时钟取出钥匙，并说“Over all those years, it has been right here”，因此“it”指代“The key”。 3．故事顺序为：利奥为妹妹制作木盒（b）→利奥寄出最后一封信（d）→安迪帮妈妈打扫阁楼发现信件（c）→安迪帮助曾祖母找到钥匙（a）。 4．全文围绕安迪通过解读利奥信中的同音异形词线索，最终找到钥匙并打开盒子的过程展开，因此“寻找丢失钥匙的线索”最能概括故事主线。 Passage 2 What if I told you some of China’s most famous writers had a secret soccer team? Yu Hua (who wrote To Live) and Mo Yan (the Nobel Prize winner) were the star players, but their real MVP was Shi Tiesheng—the goalkeeper who guarded the goal with his wheelchair. Their “matches” were full of laughter. Instead of seeing the wheelchair as a limitation, the friends saw it as the perfect movable goalpost. When Shi Tiesheng spun his wheels to block a shot, his cheer was louder than anyone’s. The soccer game was never about winning; it was about the joy of enjoying life together. One sunny afternoon, they decided to see a real match. Pushing the wheelchair for miles, they joked and dreamed under the blue sky. When they finally arrived, they discovered none of them had brought enough money for tickets. Instead of disappointment, they burst out laughing. Sitting outside the stadium, they invented their own commentary for the roars and applause of the crowd, creating a story even better than the real game. Years later, Yu Hua would smile remembering those days. “The best goals we ever scored,” he said, “were the ones we celebrated together.” True friendship turns any field into a playground, and every challenge into a game worth playing. 1．Who was the goalkeeper of their “soccer team”? A．Yu Hua B．Mo Yan C．Shi Tiesheng D．All of them together 2．What’s the meaning of the underlined word “movable” in Paragraph 2? A．Heavy B．Fixed C．Able to be moved D．Expensive 3．Why did they laugh when they found out they didn’t have enough money for the tickets? A．Because they found a way to get in for free. B．Because they considered that the real game wasn’t interesting. C．Because someone told them a very funny joke at that moment. D．Because they chose to enjoy the moment together instead of being upset. 4．What can we infer about Shi Tiesheng’s character from the story? A．He was a serious and quiet person. B．He was active and had a great sense of humor. C．He felt sorry for himself because of his wheelchair. D．He was not really interested in soccer. 5．Which of the following is the best title for the story? A．Friendship and Positive Spirit B．A Story About Winning a Soccer Game C．The Lives of Famous Chinese Writers D．How to Buy Tickets for a Soccer Game 【答案】1．C 2．C 3．D 4．B 5．A 【导语】本文讲述了余华、莫言和史铁生三位作家之间充满欢笑与友情的“轮椅足球”故事，展现了他们积极乐观的生活态度。 1．细节理解题。根据第一段“their real MVP was Shi Tiesheng—the goalkeeper who guarded the goal with his wheelchair.”可知，守门员是史铁生。故选C。 2．词句猜测题。根据第二段“Instead of seeing the wheelchair as a limitation, the friends saw it as the perfect movable goalpost.”可知，朋友们把轮椅看作完美的“可移动的”球门柱，与“固定的”相对。因此movable意为“可移动的”。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据第三段“Instead of disappointment, they burst out laughing.”以及他们坐在场外自己解说比赛的情节可知，他们没有因为没带够钱而沮丧，反而选择一起享受这个时刻。故选D。 4．推理判断题。根据文中史铁生作为守门员、在活动中欢笑、与朋友一起乐观面对困境等描写，可推断他性格活跃且富有幽默感。故选B。 5．最佳标题题。全文通过三位作家的故事，展现了友谊的力量和积极乐观的生活态度，因此“友谊与积极精神”最适合作为标题。故选A。 Passage 3 Class was almost over.

The next day, in Mr Green’s class, Tom told him Mr Smith’s answer. Mr Green didn’t change his mind. As soon as the class was over, Tom went to Mr Smith’s office. A few minutes later, Tom returned with Mr Smith and four students from another class. And the classroom became an interesting place. Everyone was excited, waiting for a long, heated discussion between the two teachers. We weren’t disappointed. Right then and there, Mr Smith and Mr Green began their argument (争论). They tried to show their answers on the blackboard. They used some math words and expressions I had never heard of, but at one point, the vocabulary turned simple. “No, …” Mr Smith said. “Yes, …” Mr Green answered. “No, …” Mr Smith said again. “Yes, …” Mr Green repeated. … At first, we were on our seats listening carefully, trying to follow their ideas. Later, Tom and some other students began to stand together around them. As time passed by, students showed their support for different teachers and became two teams. Everyone worked so hard, just for the answer to a single math problem. That’s the power of maths! When the school bell rang, the problem was still not solved. “Why not ask all the math teachers at school to join us and have a meeting for it?” Mr. Smith said. “How about lunch time? …” Mr. Green replied. “Great! …” All the students shouted … 1．What can we learn about Tom from Paragraph 1 to 4?

But every time she went there, she saw many plastic water bottles on the beaches. Seeing plastic pollute her favourite beaches year after year, Madison decided it was time to do something about it. After learning a lot about plastic pollution, Madison decided to develop an eco-friendly water bottle. Through lots of hard work, she created the Eco-Hero—an edible water bottle. People can easily drink the water by poking (戳) a hole at the top of the bottle and can eat the bottle after finishing the water. It only costs about $1.20 to make. Creating the Eco-Hero was not an easy job. Madison went through many tests. “I just kept trying new things, and if it didn’t work, I would do some more research and try again,” she said. Thinking about the future of the Eco-Hero, Madison said she wants to do more tests to improve the water bottle and make it stronger and bigger. She hoped her invention could be used during races—as runners stop for water, they’d be able to use the Eco-Hero, drink the water and eat the bottle. The Eco-Hero encourages people to do something to make the world a better place. “Everyone can bring about changes to the world, even if it’s just in a small way,” said Madison. 1．What did Madison see when she went to the beaches? A．Plastic bags. B．Glass water bottles. C．Wooden boxes. D．Plastic water bottles. 2．What does “edible” mean in Paragraph 2? A．Safe to eat. B．Good for the environment. C．Easy to break. D．Convenient to recycle. 3．According to Paragraph 3, which words can best describe Madison? A．Never give up. B．Work well together. C．Respect all people. D．Always be confident. 4．What does Madison plan to do in the future? A．To reduce the cost of the Eco-Hero. B．To introduce the Eco-Hero in schools. C．To sell the Eco-Hero in other countries. D．To make the Eco-Hero stronger and bigger. 5．Which is the best title of the text? A．A Useful Way to Save Beaches B．An Amazing Water Bottle C．The Problem of Plastic Pollution D．How to Make Plastic Bottles 【答案】1．D 2．A 3．A 4．D 5．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了12岁的年轻发明家Madison Checketts因看到海滩上的塑料水瓶污染问题，发明了可食用的环保水瓶Eco-Hero的故事。 1．细节理解题。根据“But every time she went there, she saw many plastic water bottles on the beaches.”可知，Madison在海滩上看到的是塑料水瓶。故选D。 2．词句猜测题。根据“People can easily drink the water by poking a hole at the top of the bottle and can eat the bottle after finishing the water.”可知，人们可以通过在瓶子顶部戳一个洞来喝水，喝完水后可以吃掉瓶子，“edible”意为“可食用的”。故选A。 3．推理判断题。根据“I just kept trying new things, and if it didn’t work, I would do some more research and try again.”可推知，Madison是一个“永不放弃”的人。故选A。 4．细节理解题。根据“Madison said she wants to do more tests to improve the water bottle and make it stronger and bigger.”可知，她计划让Eco-Hero变得更坚固和更大。故选D。 5．最佳标题题。通读全文可知，全文围绕Madison发明的可食用环保水瓶Eco-Hero展开，重点介绍了其创新性和环保意义。故选B。 Passage 6 Scene 1 (Max and Mary are husband and wife. Late at night, Max and Mary lay in bed but the front door was wide open, with the cold wind blowing heavily.) Max: Get up and close the door—this wind is freezing me to death! Mary: Why me? You’re closer to the door. You go. Max: I said you have to do it. I never go back on my word. Mary: Me neither! I’ll never break a promise. Max: (Suddenly having an idea) How about this—whoever speaks first closes the door. Mary: OK! (They shut their mouths at once, curling up in their quilts.) Scene 2 At midnight, a thief entered their room through the open front door. Seeing no one spoke, he packed copper saucepans (铜锅) and silver candlesticks (烛台) into his bag, walked to the fireplace, lit the firewood, and took out stolen ingredients to cook a meal. After eating, the thief carried away the tables, chairs, carpets, and bookshelves, even tore off the wallpaper and took away the window frames, leaving the room in a big mess. As the thief left, the couple still kept silent. Scene 3 (Early the next morning, Max sat on the floor with messy hair. And Mary went out to find food. At this time, a barber noticed the open front door and walked in.) Barber: (Looking at Max’s hair) Sir, do you need a haircut? I’m very skilled. (Max pressed his lips tightly, saying nothing.) Barber: (Thinking Max agreed) Then I’ll get to work. (The barber picked up his scissors and cut Max’s hair. After finishing, he stepped back in satisfaction.) Barber: How do you like it? Isn’t it neat and lively? (Max remained silent) Barber: (A little angry) Not satisfied? Then I’ll cut it some more. (Seeing Max still didn’t reply, he cut all Max’s hair.) Barber: (Holding out his hand) Alright, pay up—three copper coins, please. (Max felt his empty pockets and stayed silent.) Barber: (Angrily) You want a free haircut? No way! (The barber took some black dust under the pan and spread it on Max’s face, then left angrily) Scene 4 (Mary returned with food. As soon as she entered the room and saw Max’s appearance, she dropped the food in her hands in shock.) Mary: Oh, my god! Max, what happened to you? What’s going on? Max: (Jumping up from the floor) Ha ha! You spoke first! Now, go close the front door! —Adapted from The Danger of Being Stubborn 1．According to Scene One, what did Max and Mary argue about? A．Who should open the door. B．Who should repair the door. C．Who should shut the door. D．Who should clean the door. 2．Why did the thief steal away their things successfully? A．Because Max and Mary were not at home. B．Because Max and Mary were both asleep in the bed. C．Because Max and Mary didn’t want to speak first. D．Because Max and Mary couldn’t hear the thief due to loud music. 3．What do you think of Max and Mary according to the scenes? A．Clever. B．Brave. C．Silly. D．Kind. 4．Each picture below matches one scene. Which one is missing? A．Scene One. B．Scene Two. C．Scene Three. D．Scene Four. 【答案】1．C 2．C 3．C 4．D 【导语】本文讲述了一对夫妇深夜因互相推诿不愿关门，约定谁先说话谁去关门。二人为此全程保持沉默，任凭小偷进屋翻找财物、生火做饭，甚至搬空屋内物品，之后丈夫还被理发师剪光头发、抹黑脸面，妻子最终先开口询问，丈夫当即让她去关门的故事。 1．细节理解题。根据“Max: Get up and close the door—this wind is freezing me to death!”和“Mary: Why me? You’re closer to the door. You go.”可知，Max和Mary争论的是谁该去关门。故选C。 2．细节理解题。根据“whoever speaks first closes the door”、“Seeing no one spoke, he packed copper saucepans (铜锅)...”以及“As the thief left, the couple still kept silent”可知，小偷能成功偷走东西，是因为Max和Mary为了遵守赌约、避免自己先开口去关门，全程都刻意保持沉默，对小偷的行为不做任何声张，给了小偷可乘之机。故选C。 3．推理判断题。根据“As the thief left, the couple still kept silent.”可知，Max和Mary执着于“谁先说话谁关门”的赌约，即便面对财物被偷也全程沉默，无视财产损失；根据“Seeing Max still didn’t reply, he cut all Max’s hair.”和“The barber took some black dust under the pan and spread it on Max’s face, then left angrily”可知，Max为了坚持不先开口，宁可自身受辱。综上可推知，Max和Mary两人十分愚蠢。故选C。 4．推理判断题。图一对应的是第一场（夫妇俩躺在床上，放任门敞开的场景）；图二对应的是第三场（理发师给Max剪头发的场景）；图三对应的是第二场（小偷在屋内做饭偷东西的场景）。因此，缺失的是第四场：Mary回家看到Max狼狈模样的场景。故选D。 Passage 7 The summer I turned sixteen, my grandfather came to live with us. He had always been my hero—he taught me to whittle (削) wood. But the strong, smiling man from my childhood was gone. He had Alzheimer’s disease. My mom explained, “He might forget things. We have to watch him.” Watching him became my job. When friends texted “Come to the pool!” I’d reply “Can’t. Watching Grandpa” Resentment gradually (逐渐地) built up inside me. One afternoon, he stood by the door, bag in hand. “I have to get home,” he said. “My grandson is waiting. He’s only seven.” My frustration (沮丧) boiled over. “I am your grandson!” I shouted. “I’m sixteen!” Grandpa looked at me with deep sadness and moved back to his chair. I realized I had disappointed the man who once had endless (无止境的) patience with me. The next day, I tried a different way. I found his old whittling knife. “Grandpa, could you show me how?” He looked at the wood, then my face. For a moment, his eyes lit up with recognition (识别). His hands covered mine. “Like this, Mike,” he said quietly. We didn’t speak much after that. But we sat together for hours, whittling wood. I was no longer just his guard. I became his bridge back to a world he understood. I learned that sometimes love is just sitting with someone, holding their hand. I stopped being a boy waiting for summer to start, and started being the man my grandfather needed me to be. 1．What was wrong with Grandpa? A．He didn’t like Mike. B．He lost his whittling knife. C．He had memory problems. D．He couldn’t whittle wood. 2．What does the underlined word “resentment” mean in Paragraph 2? A．Fear. B．Anger. C．Worry. D．Happiness. 3．Why did Mike start whittling with Grandpa again? A．To pass the time. B．To master the skill. C．To make him happy. D．To help him remember. 4．What did Mike learn from his experience? A．Skills to care for the old. B．The true meaning of love. C．The importance of friendship. D．How to make things from wood. 【答案】1．C 2．B 3．D 4．B 【导语】本文讲述了16岁的迈克在祖父患阿尔茨海默病后，不得不放弃暑假自由照顾祖父的故事。 1．细节理解题。根据“But the strong, smiling man from my childhood was gone. He had Alzheimer’s disease.”可知，他有记忆问题。故选C。 2．词句猜测题。根据“I’d reply “Can’t. Watching Grandpa” Resentment gradually (逐渐地) built up inside me.”可知，我会回复“不能。看着爷爷”，我心中逐渐积聚了怨恨。这里的Resentment是“愤怒”的意思。故选B。 3．推理判断题。根据“I found his old whittling knife. “Grandpa, could you show me how?” He looked at the wood, then my face. For a moment, his eyes lit up with recognition (识别). His hands covered mine. “Like this, Mike,” he said quietly.”可推知，为了帮助祖父回忆、连接熟悉的世界。故选D。 4．细节理解题。根据“I learned that sometimes love is just sitting with someone, holding their hand.”可知，迈克从他的经历中学到了爱的真谛。故选B。 Passage 8 Hello there! I’m one of the Unitree G1 humanoid robots. Let me tell you my story, straight from my own metal-and-motor heart. ________ Since day one, engineers at Unitree dreamed big: robots that could balance, sprint, leap and adapt. They gave me LiDAR, depth cameras and advanced motion control systems, and taught me how to stand firm, walk steadily, and finally dance. Robots like me practised hard before the night of 16 February, when hundreds of millions tuned in to watch the 2026 Spring Festival Gala. Then came the moment. I stepped onto one of the world’s brightest stages, right on cue with my fellow robots, we were there to perform. At one point, I leapt into the air and flipped before landing squarely on my feet. The audience watched in awe before breaking into applause. Some of us even performed moves inspired by kung fu—all while children shared the stage with us. At one dramatic moment, one of us suddenly fell flat on his back. Just as the audience began to wonder what was happening, he rose smoothly to his feet. It turned out to be a trick—a classic drunken boxing move. Last year, robots first appeared at the Spring Festival Gala, twirling handkerchiefs and performing simple movements. We’ve improved a lot since then! Videos of this year’s show have gone viral online. People replay the flips. They slow down the kicks. “It looks like something straight out of a sci-fi film,” one comment reads. At the same time, they ask, “What will robots do next?” That question excites me. Because the gala stage is only the beginning. In the future, robots like me may work in places where people need extra hands, such as care settings and disaster zones. And of course, some of us may remain in entertainment and education— performing, teaching, inspiring curiosity in children who look at us and think, “I want to build something like that one day.” The gala was my debut. The future is my next stage. And I am ready to step forward. 1．Which of the following fits best in the ________? A．I wasn’t built to sit quietly on a shelf. B．I was created in a large factory in China. C．People often believe robots are only cold machines. D．Many robots are built for display rather than action. 2．The drunken boxing move was designed to ________. A．test whether the robot could recover from a fall B．create a surprising moment for the audience C．show the robot’s control over its movements D．introduce the robot’s new performance style 3．How does the writer show the robots’ progress? A．By giving detailed numbers about their training. B．By comparing this year’s show with last year’s. C．By describing their appearance in a scientific way. D．By explaining how engineers improved the robots. 4．Why does the writer tell the story in the first person? A．To explain technical details more clearly. B．To make the story more personal and lively. C．To show how robots are controlled. D．To present the gala in a relaxed tone. 【答案】1．A 2．B 3．B 4．B 【导语】本文以机器人的第一人称视角，讲述了宇树科技的机器人在2026年春晚表演的经历，展示了机器人的进步及未来应用前景。 1．推理判断题。根据“They gave me LiDAR, depth cameras and advanced motion control systems, and taught me how to stand firm, walk steadily, and finally dance.”可知，工程师们赋予机器人各种能力，使其能够行动和表演，因此第一句应表达机器人不是静态的摆设。故选A。 2．细节理解题。根据“At one dramatic moment, one of us suddenly fell flat on his back.

She dreamed of living in Africa one day and writing stories about wild animals. When she was old enough, Jane worked and saved her money. When she had saved enough, she went on a trip to Africa. In Africa, Jane met Dr. Louis Leakey, a famous scientist. When Jane met Dr. Leakey, he needed help with an important new animal study. The study would look at how chimpanzees (黑猩猩) behave. Dr. Leakey asked Jane to work on the chimpanzee study with him. To work on the study, Jane and her mother moved to the country of Tanzania (坦桑尼亚). They lived with chimpanzees in the Gombe (贡贝) Forest. At first, most of the chimps in Gombe were afraid of Jane. Only a chimp she had named David trusted her. He let Jane meet his family group. Jane wrote notes as she watched the chimps every day. Her notes upset (使不安) many scientists. They had their own beliefs and ideas about how chimps behaved. Jane said chimps were smart. She said they used sticks as tools to dig up bugs to eat. She also said chimps showed feelings, as humans do. Jane’s work made some scientists think again about their old beliefs and ideas about chimps. They saw that some of their old ideas might be wrong. Some scientists agreed with Jane. After many years in Gombe, Jane became very worried. People were cutting down trees in the Gombe Forest. Hunters were stealing baby chimps. Jane knew what she had to do. She talked about her work with many people all around the world. She asked them for help to save the chimps and the forest. People trusted Jane and helped to support her work in Gombe. Over fifty years, she kept working to protect the forest and the chimpanzees from harm. 1．Why did Jane go to Africa in the beginning? A．To study chimpanzee behavior with Dr. Leakey. B．To write stories about wild animals and fulfill (实现) her dream. C．To save chimpanzees from hunters. D．To help her mother move to Tanzania. 2．Why did Jane’s notes “upset many scientists” at first? A．Because her notes were poorly written. B．Because she worked alone without a scientific degree. C．Because she named the chimps instead of using numbers. D．Because scientists did not believe chimps could use tools or show feelings. 3．Which shows the correct order of events in Jane’s life? ① Jane met Dr. Leakey. ② Jane saved money for a trip to Africa. ③ Jane started telling the world to help save chimps. ④ Jane observed chimps using sticks as tools. A．②→①→④→③ B．①→②→④→③ C．②→④→①→③ D．③→①→②→④ 4．What is the main message of the article? A．Scientists always agree with new discoveries about animals. B．Moving to Africa is expensive and requires saving money. C．Jane Goodall loved animals and proved chimps are smart, then worked to protect them. D．Chimpanzees are endangered and should be protected. 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．A 4．C 【导语】本文主要讲述了简·古道尔热爱动物，通过研究证明黑猩猩很聪明，并且之后致力于保护它们。 1．根据第一段“As a young girl, Jane Goodall (简·古道尔) loved to watch animals and read stories about them. She dreamed of living in Africa one day and writing stories about wild animals.”可知，简·古道尔一开始去非洲是为了写关于野生动物的故事并实现她的梦想。 2．根据第四段“Her notes upset (使不安) many scientists. They had their own beliefs and ideas about how chimps behaved. Jane said chimps were smart. She said they used sticks as tools to dig up bugs to eat. She also said chimps showed feelings, as humans do.”可知，简的笔记一开始让许多科学家不安是因为科学家不相信黑猩猩会使用工具或表达情感。 3．根据第一段“When she was old enough, Jane worked and saved her money. When she had saved enough, she went on a trip to Africa.”可知，先是简攒钱准备去非洲旅行；根据第二段“In Africa, Jane met Dr. Louis Leakey, a famous scientist.”可知，然后简在非洲遇到了路易斯·利基博士；根据第四段“She said they used sticks as tools to dig up bugs to eat.”可知，接着简观察到黑猩猩用棍子作为工具；根据倒数第二段“She talked about her work with many people all around the world. She asked them for help to save the chimps and the forest.”可知，最后简开始呼吁全世界帮助拯救黑猩猩。所以正确顺序是②→①→④→③。 4．文章主要讲述了简·古道尔热爱动物，通过研究证明黑猩猩很聪明，并且之后致力于保护它们。 二、说明文 Passage1 Rainbows are created by light shining through water or clear objects. In nature, rainbows usually appear where rain and sunlight meet. Rainbows are beautiful tricks of light. Science, though, has unlocked their mysteries. Where and When Rainbows Appear Notice the weather the next time you see a rainbow. It is usually in the morning or late afternoon. There will be rain or mist in front of you, and the sun will be shining from behind you. Water in the air and direct light are the two things needed to see a rainbow in nature. A rainbow won’t appear if the sky is too cloudy. You can sometimes see rainbows in the mist of a waterfall, too. A fountain (喷泉) under a bright moon can create a small rainbow, and a sprinkler on a sunny day may put on a colorful show. How Rainbows Form René Descartes, who was a French scientist discovered that a rainbow looks like a half circle. However, a rainbow actually forms a full circle. To see a rainbow, the viewer must be looking at the light from the right angle (角度). To understand rainbows, it helps to understand how light travels. Light moves at different speeds through different mediums (介质). Think of running on land. Then imagine running in knee-deep water. You move slower through water. In the same way, light moves faster through air than through water. This happens because water is thicker than air. When light enters water, it slows and changes its original path. This process makes objects, such as a pencil sitting in a glass of water seem to bend (弯曲). We can see rainbows in nature when direct light meets drops of rain. Sunlight refracts (折射) as it enters each drop. The light then reflects (反射), or bounces, off the inside of each drop, like light off a mirror. The light refracts again as it exits the drop. Light refracts and reflects in millions of water droplets in the sky at the same time. This process makes all the colors of a rainbow. 1．Which sentence below can best explain the underlined sentence “Rainbows are beautiful tricks of light” in Paragraph 1? A．Rainbows are tricks made by many scientists. B．Someone lied to us about the truth of rainbows. C．The light plays tricks on people’s eyes and makes rainbows. D．Rainbows are made by some unknown magic tricks 2．In which of the following situations, a rainbow CAN’T form? A．In the mist of a waterfall. B．On a misty morning. C．Over a fountain under a bright moon. D．Over a sprinkler on a very cloudy day. 3．Which could be the best picture for the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3? A． B． C． D． 4．Which statement below is TRUE according to the article? A．Rainbow can be a complete circle as well as a half circle. B．You need to stand at a right angle to see a rainbow. C．Light can actually make a pencil bend in water. D．Light moves faster in thicker mediums like water. 5．What is the process to create a rainbow? A．Sunlight enters the raindrop, reflects, refracts, and then reflects again as it exits. B．Sunlight enters the raindrop, refracts, reflects, and then refracts again as it exits. C．Sunlight enters the raindrop, refracts, bounces, and then reflects as it exits. D．Sunlight enters the raindrop, reflects, bounces, and then refracts as it exits. 【答案】1．C 2．D 3．D 4．B 5．B 【导语】本文是说明文。主要介绍了彩虹的形成原理、出现的时间和地点等相关知识。 1．推理判断题。根据“Rainbows are beautiful tricks of light”可知，“彩虹是光的美丽把戏”，这句话的意思是光通过折射、反射等作用让我们看到彩虹，就好像在跟我们的眼睛玩把戏一样。因此C选项“光对人的眼睛玩把戏，从而形成彩虹”是最能解释这句话的。故选C。 2．细节理解题。根据“A fountain (喷泉) under a bright moon can create a small rainbow, and a sprinkler on a sunny day may put on a colorful show.”及“A rainbow won’t appear if the sky is too cloudy.”可知，洒水器在晴朗的天气时可以形成彩虹，在多云的天气时不能形成彩虹。故选D。 3．细节理解题。根据“When light enters water, it slows and changes its original path. This process makes objects, such as a pencil sitting in a glass of water seem to bend ( 弯曲).”可知，当光进入水中时，它的速度会减慢，并且会改变其原本的传播路径。这一过程使得诸如放在水杯里的铅笔之类的物体看起来好像发生了弯曲。选项D，此图是关于光在空气和水中折射的原理，光从空气进入水中，发生折射。故选D。 4．细节理解题。根据“However, a rainbow actually forms a full circle. To see a rainbow, the viewer must be looking at the light from the right angle (角度).” 可知，彩虹看起来像半圆形。但实际上，彩虹形成的是一个完整的圆。要看到彩虹，观察者必须从合适的角度观察光线。故选B。 5．细节理解题。根据“Sunlight refracts (折射) as it enters each drop. The light then reflects (反射), or bounces, off the inside of each drop, like light off a mirror. The light refracts again as it exits the drop.” 可知，阳光进入雨滴时折射，然后反射，离开雨滴时再次折射。故选B Passage 2 The average person eats about 40 kg of meat per year. In developed countries, it’s double that—about the same weight as an adult dolphin. But experts now advise cutting down the amount of meat we eat to help slow down the warming of the Earth. So, here’s a thought experiment: what if the whole world turned vegan (eating no animal products at all)? Around 15% of all greenhouse gases produced by humans come from raising farm animals. If we all become vegan, these gases will be slashed. Eating meat takes up space—a lot of it. Around 80% of all farmland is used for producing meat and milk products. This area is almost as large as Europe, the United States, China, and Australia put together. Meat and milk usually give us only 18% of the energy we need, but they cause 60% of the harmful gases from farming. A report by the UN’s climate body, the IPCC, recommends we all reduce the amount of meat we eat, and also how much we waste. The report has found that 8%—10% of the world’s harmful gases come from lost or wasted food. ▲ Large-scale (大规模) farming of cows causes especially serious harm and has been a big factor in the loss of the Amazon Rainforest. When cows digest (消化) their food, they produce methane (CH4)—a powerful greenhouse gas that is about 28 times more powerful than carbon dioxide (CO2) over 100 years. One cow lets out between 70 and 100 kg of methane every year, and there are around 1.5 billion cows in the world today. But small-scale farming of animals can have a lower environmental footprint, and sometimes—as with traditional grazing (放牧)—can even help wildlife and plants live together. Vegan alternatives (替代) also come with their own problems. For example, large-scale bean production can cause forests to be cut down, and almond (杏仁) production requires huge amounts of water. If everyone changed to a plant-based diet, it could bring important health benefits. One study guessed that if everyone ate a vegan diet—rich in fresh fruit and vegetables—around eight million deaths could be avoided worldwide by 2050. There are no simple answers. If everyone changes how they view food, produce it, and eat it in a green way, we might change the world. 1．What does “be slashed” in Paragraph 1 most probably mean? A．Double. B．Remain. C．Reduce greatly. D．Increase slightly. 2．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A．Raising cows especially harms the Earth. B．A vegan world would end food waste. C．Small farms are more harmful to the Earth. D．Bean production needs plenty of water. 3．Which of the following is the most suitable for ▲ ? A．Raising sheep also harms the Earth. B．Many countries begin raising fewer cows. C．People must stop eating beef at once. D．Not all farming influences the Earth equally. 4．This passage is mainly about ________. A．why cows mainly cause the warming of the Earth B．why we should stop eating meat to protect the Earth C．how eating meat harms the Earth and what we can do D．what the advantages of eating fruits and vegetables are 【答案】1．C 2．A 3．D 4．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了食用肉类对地球环境的危害（温室气体、土地占用、森林破坏等），同时分析纯素饮食的利弊，并提出绿色饮食的建议。 1．词句猜测题。根据文章第一段“experts now advise cutting down the amount of meat we eat to help slow down the warming of the Earth”以及“Around 15% of all greenhouse gases produced by humans come from raising farm animals. If we all become vegan, these gases will be slashed.”可知，人类产生的温室气体有15%来自养殖牲畜，同时专家建议减少肉类消费以减缓全球变暖，以及“If we all become vegan”这个条件句，可以推断“这些气体”应该会“大幅减少”。故选C。 2．细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Large-scale farming of cows causes especially serious harm and has been a big factor in the loss of the Amazon Rainforest”可知，大规模养奶牛对地球危害尤其严重。故选A。 3．推理判断题。第三段先讲大规模养牛危害极大，后又讲小规模养殖环境影响更低，甚至有助于生态，说明不同养殖方式对地球影响不同。选项D “并非所有农业对地球的影响都相同”可总领全段。故选D。 4．主旨大意题。文章先讲吃肉如何危害地球（温室气体、土地、森林、甲烷），再讲纯素饮食的利弊，最后提出绿色饮食改变世界的做法，因此，文章主要围绕“食用肉类如何危害地球”以及“我们可以做些什么”展开。故选C。 Passage 3 Have you ever heard of the “three Rs” — “Reduce, reuse, recycle”? This idea is now coming to life on Mount Wugong in Jiangxi Province through a creative program. To protect the mountain’s beautiful grasslands, the scenic spot has started an “Exchange Rubbish for Gifts” activity. It is simple to join: visitors get a rubbish bag at the foot of the mountain, collect litter along the hiking trails, and return a full bag to receive a special gift. These gifts are often eco-medals or beautiful postcards, turning the environmental act into a fun “treasure hunt”. This activity also greatly helps the cleaners. “Cleaning the wide grassland is challenging,” says one cleaner. “Now, with visitors’ help, the mountain stays cleaner, and our workload is lighter.” A young visitor, Li Ming, shared his experience. He was excited to get his eco-medal. “It’s not just a gift,” he said. “It teaches us that protecting the environment is an action everyone can take part in. It makes us feel proud.” Another visitor, Ms Zhang from Nanchang, came with her family. She found the activity highly educational for her children. “It’s a practical lesson that goes beyond the classroom,” she noted. “It shows them the direct impact of their actions and develops a real sense of responsibility.” In conclusion, the “trash for medal” program on Mount Wugong is a wonderful success. It not only keeps the mountain clean but also makes environmental protection a positive and rewarding experience for all. It shows us that the “three Rs” lie in our daily actions. 1．What do visitors do to get a special gift in the activity? A．They buy a rubbish bag at the foot of the mountain. B．They share their hiking experience with cleaners. C．They collect litter along the trails and return a full bag. D．They teach other visitors about the “three Rs”. 2．Why did Ms Zhang think the activity was good for her children? A．It let them get more postcards than other visitors. B．It gave them a practical environmental lesson outside class. C．It helped them make more friends during the hike. D．It allowed them to take a break from classroom study. 3．What does the underlined word “responsibility” probably mean in Paragraph 4? A．Humor. B．Direction. C．Pride. D．Duty. 4．What can we learn from the “trash for medal” program? A．The “three Rs” can only be put into practice on mountains. B．Environmental protection can be fun and rewarding for everyone. C．Cleaners no longer need to work after the activity starts. D．Visitors will stop littering only if they get expensive gifts. 5．What is the best structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． 【答案】1．C 2．B 3．D 4．B 5．C 【导语】本文主要介绍了江西武功山景区开展的“垃圾换礼物”活动，通过让游客捡拾垃圾换取纪念品，使环保变得有趣而有意义。 1．细节理解题。根据第二段中“It is simple to join: visitors get a rubbish bag at the foot of the mountain, collect litter along the hiking trails, and return a full bag to receive a special gift.”可知，游客需要沿着小径收集垃圾并归还装满的垃圾袋才能获得特殊礼物。故选C。 2．细节理解题。根据第四段中“She found the activity highly educational for her children. ‘It’s a practical lesson that goes beyond the classroom,’ she noted.”可知，张女士认为这项活动为孩子提供了课堂之外实用的环境课程。故选B。 3．词句猜测题。根据上文“protecting the environment is an action everyone can take part in”以及划线词前“It shows them the direct impact of their actions and develops a real sense of”，并结合本文环保教育的主题可知，这个活动能使孩子亲眼看到自己行为的直接影响，能够培养孩子们对环境保护的责任感，“responsibility”在此处指对环境的“责任，义务”，与“Duty”意思相近。故选D。 4．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“It not only keeps the mountain clean but also makes environmental protection a positive and rewarding experience for all.”可知，该项目让环保成为对所有人而言积极且有回报的体验，因此我们可以学到环境保护可以是有趣且值得做的。故选B。 5．篇章结构题。通读全文可知，第一段引入“three Rs”理念并介绍武功山的活动；第二段详细介绍“垃圾换礼物”的具体做法；第三段从清洁工角度说明活动带来的帮助；第四段通过两位游客的亲身经历，展现活动的教育意义；第五段总结全文，强调活动的成功及其对环保的积极影响。因此，文章整体呈现“总—分—总”的结构：第一段总起，第二、三、四段并列分述，第五段总结。故选C。 Passage 4 Listening to music, watching movies, reading novels... Which kind of art is your go-to choice for fun? According to a new study, art not only calms your mind but also improves your physical health. For the first time, scientists in the UK found that art helps the immune (免疫的), endocrine (内分泌的) and nervous systems all at once, said The Guardian. The study included 50 healthy volunteers aged 18 to 40. Half of them went to see real artworks at the Courtauld Gallery in London, while the other half looked at copies of the same paintings in a non-gallery setting. All of them wore health sensors throughout the experiment. The result showed a 22 percent drop in stress hormones (激素) for the gallery-goers and an 8 percent drop for the other group, according to Art Fund. Signs of inflammation (炎症) also went down by about 30 percent for the gallery group. It’s not just visual art that has such effects. For example, a 2021 Swiss study said that dance reduces stress by improving movement control. What makes art so powerful? Scientists have different ideas. One, developed by Edward Vessel at the City College of New York, looks to our brain’s default mode network (默认模式网络). This network is thought to play a key role in creativity—it usually stays quiet when we pay attention to things around us. But when we enjoy art, this network becomes active. Although we are still learning how this works, ________. According to American Scientist, art therapy was first developed to help traumatized (心理受创的) World War II soldiers express their feelings. Those painful experiences often hurt the parts of their brains that control speech, so traditional talking therapy didn’t work well. Since then, art therapy has helped over 650 million people around the world. Marygrace Berberian, a professor at New York University, said in the university’s news in September that number-based studies, like the new UK study, can help more people get art therapy. 1．What does the result of the UK study show? A．Young people benefit more from viewing art. B．Looking at art copies is of little benefit to health. C．Painting is the most helpful art for lowering stress. D．Stress went down more for the gallery-goers group. 2．What does Edward Vessel’s theory suggest about art? A．It makes people’s memory become better. B．It makes the brain’s special network active. C．It makes the brain’s usual activity weaker. D．It makes people careless about the outside. 3．Which of the following is the most suitable for ________? A．art’s power has long been used in treatment B．art’s power is still doubted by scientists C．art’s power has been fully understood by scientists D．art’s power hasn’t been used in treatment till now 4．How does the writer develop the passage? A．By describing research steps. B．By offering interesting ideas. C．By using many examples. D．By listing different art forms 【答案】1．D 2．B 3．A 4．C 【导语】本文介绍研究发现艺术有益身心健康，能降低压力等，还讲述艺术在治疗方面的应用。 1．细节理解题。根据“The result showed a 22 percent drop in stress hormones for the gallery-goers and an 8 percent drop for the other group”可知，去美术馆的那组人压力下降得更多。故选D。 2．细节理解题。根据“But when we enjoy art, this network becomes active.”可知，欣赏艺术时大脑的特殊网络会变得活跃。故选B。 3．推理判断题。根据“According to American Scientist, art therapy was first developed to help traumatized World War II soldiers express their feelings.”可知，艺术的力量长期以来被用于治疗。故选A。 4．推理判断题。根据文中提到英国的研究、瑞士的研究、艺术疗法的例子等可知，作者通过举例来展开文章。故选C。 Passage 5 According to a study, in primary schools in the UK, almost two thirds of students go to or back from school by car and 26% usually walk. And about 7% take a bus, while 1% ride. From it, we see that the students fail to get enough exercise. To improve the situation, there are some useful activities. Walk to School Week is among them. Falling in the third week of May each year, Walk to School Week was started by the UK charity (慈善组织) Living Streets to help more kids get out of the car and walk to school. They have prizes for children to collect when they walk to school. And wheelchair (轮椅) users can also join for fun. This year’s theme for Walk to School Week is “Walk with Wildlife”. It inspires children to travel actively to school every day of the week, meeting different animals along the way and learning about why to walk. ▲ On the way, children can meet their classmates and talk with them sometimes or even make new friends. Besides, regular walking also helps them stay fit and feel better both physically and mentally. “Half of our primary school students live a mile or less from their school, but far too few of them are walking to school. The great thing about walking is that it is simple and safe to do. It should be in their everyday life,” an official (官员) said. 1．Which of the following is the result of the study? A．B．C． D． 2．What do we know about Walk to School Week? A．It lasts for three weeks. B．It was set up by an international group. C．It only gives prizes to kids walking to school. D．It gives special attention to wildlife this year. 3．The underlined word “inspires” in Paragraph 3 probably means “________” in English.

And about 7% take a bus, while 1% ride.”可知，开车上学的学生约占66%，步行占26%，乘公交占7%，骑车占1%，对照选项，B选项的饼图比例与原文数据一致。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据“This year’s theme for Walk to School Week is ‘Walk with Wildlife’.”可知，今年的“步行上学周”特别关注野生动物。故选D。 3．词句猜测题。根据“It inspires children to travel actively to school every day of the week, meeting different animals along the way and learning about why to walk.”可知，该活动旨在激励孩子们主动步行上学，“inspires”在此处意为“鼓励”，与“encourages”意思相近。故选C。 4．推理判断题。根据“On the way, children can meet their classmates and talk with them sometimes or even make new friends. Besides, regular walking also helps them stay fit and feel better both physically and mentally.”可知，这是在介绍步行上学对社交和身心健康的积极影响，因此，横线处应填入一个总起句，概括步行上学的好处，D选项“步行上学是保持活跃和健康的好方法。”能自然引出下文。故选D。 5．最佳标题题。文章开篇指出英国小学生缺乏锻炼，随后介绍了“步行上学周”活动，强调了步行上学的好处，旨在鼓励更多孩子放弃汽车，选择步行上学，A选项“忘记汽车，步行上学”最能概括文章主旨。故选A。 Passage 6 Guangyuan White Flower Stone Carving (广元白花石刻) is a great art form in Guangyuan, Sichuan. It dates back to ancient times. In 2008, Baihua Stone Carving became a part of National Intangible Cultural Heritage (国家级非物质文化遗产). The materials for Guangyuan Baihua Stone Carving come from a kind of red (or green) and white stone. This stone is found in the deep mountains in Guangyuan. The base (基底) of the stone is dark. There is natural white color on it that looks like beautiful flowers. This makes each stone like a special drawing cloth for artists. The process of creation is very difficult. Artists first carefully choose high-quality stones, then, they add natural pictures into different themes, such as lifelike dragons, flowers, birds, insects and fish. Carving is really hard and needs a lot of skills. By using special tools, artists are able to carefully cut away small pieces of the stone bit by bit. Slowly, the design on the stone starts to look real. Then they turn the stone into a beautiful work of art that seems to be alive. Guangyuan White Flower Stone Carving not only shows the beauty of nature but also the wisdom and creativity of the local people. Today, people are trying hard to make Guangyuan White Flower Stone Carving more popular. Local artists hold classes for young people to teach them how to carve.

LEGO has already been a successful company in the world. Actually, there are many ups and downs along with its development. The LEGO company was set up in 1934. The name comes from the Danish “leg godt” , meaning “to play well”. Ole Kirk Kristiansen, the founder of LEGO, was a master carpenter（木匠）, so it’s not surprising that the first LEGO toys were made of wood. They were simple, such as wooden ducks. In 1942, the factory that made wooden LEGO toys was burned to the ground. This made Ole realize the disadvantages of working with wood. Soon Ole found out that plastic is a good material to make toys. LEGO started making self-locking bricks in 1949. But it wasn’t until 1958, when the locking design was much improved, that sales began to rise. Because of its quality and the endless creativity that it lets children have, LEGO achieved huge success. In 2000, children began to spend more time playing video games. By 2003, LEGO’s sales were down by 30%, and LEGO nearly went broke. The turning point appeared in 2004 when LEGO focused again on its bricks. And it also worked with films and television. The Internet was used to build a LEGO group where fans show their love for LEGO collections. In 2015, it again became a name known to the world. 1．How does the writer show the popularity of LEGO in Paragraph 1? A．By telling a story. B．By giving examples. C．By listing numbers. D．By asking questions. 2．What does the underlined word “this” mean in Paragraph 2? A．LEGO toys. B．Wooden ducks. C．The factory. D．The fire. 3．Which of the pictures shows the development of the LEGO company? A． B． C． D． 4．Which of the following words can best describe Ole Kirk Kristiansen? A．Friendly. B．Creative. C．Energetic. D．Humorous. 5．What will the author probably write about LEGO next? A．Sales data. B．New collections. C．Customer review. D．Recent development. 【答案】1．C 2．D 3．C 4．B 5．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了乐高的发展历程，包括其兴衰起伏与创新转型。 1．细节理解题。根据“There are 706 billion LEGO bricks on the earth. 7 LEGO sets are sold every second, and more than 400 million people have played with LEGO bricks.”可知，作者用列数字的方式说明了乐高的流行程度。故选C。 2．词句猜测题。根据“In 1942, the factory that made wooden LEGO toys was burned to the ground.”可知，画线单词“this”指的是“烧毁工厂的火”。故选D。 3．推理判断题。根据“The LEGO company was set up in 1934.”；“In 1942, the factory that made wooden LEGO toys was burned to the ground.”；“Soon Ole found out that plastic is a good material to make toys. LEGO started making self-locking bricks in 1949. But it wasn’t until 1958, when the locking design was much improved, that sales began to rise.”；“In 2000, children began to spend more time playing video games. By 2003, LEGO’s sales were down by 30%, and LEGO nearly went broke. The turning point appeared in 2004 when LEGO focused again on its bricks.”和“ In 2015, it again became a name known to the world.”可知，1934年公司成立起步；1942年工厂被烧毁；乐高于1949年开始生产自锁积木；但直到1958年，销量才开始上升；2000年，孩子们开始花更多时间玩电子游戏；到2003年，乐高的销售额下降了30%，乐高几近破产；转折点出现在2004年，乐高再次专注于其积木产品；到2015年，乐高再次成为世界知名品牌。故选C。 4．推理判断题。根据“Because of its quality and the endless creativity that it lets children have, LEGO achieved huge success.” 以及文中介绍的公司不断创新转型的历程，体现了Ole Kirk Kristiansen的创造力。故选B。 5．推理判断题。根据“And it also worked with films and television. The Internet was used to build a LEGO group where fans show their love for LEGO collections. In 2015, it again became a name known to the world.”可知，作者接下来将写关于乐高的近期发展。故选D。 Passage 8 As humans explore deep space, the Moon has become a key stepping stone for building bases. To solve the food problem for long-term lunar stays, scientists are exploring plant growth on the Moon. However, lunar soil is very poor—it lacks nutrients like nitrogen (氮)and has phosphorus (磷)that plants can’t easily take in. A new study by Chinese Agricultural University researchers found that Earth soil bacteria could be the solution. They tested five bacteria species on simulated (模拟的)lunar soil. Within 10 to 21 days, three species turned hard-to-absorb phosphorus into a form plants can use, doubling its amount. When they grew tobacco (烟草)plants in this treated soil, the plants had longer roots and stems after 6 days. After 24 days, the plants were heavier with wider leaves, and their chlorophyll (叶绿素)content, which helps plants get energy from light, was over twice as high as those grown without bacteria. This study is great news for future lunar missions. Using lunar soil as growing material with bacteria can save rocket space, as it won’t need to carry full growing systems from Earth. In the future, scientists hope to test real lunar soil and grow main crops like corn and potatoes. 1．What is the purpose of growing plants on the Moon? A．To test if plants can grow on the Moon. B．To solve the food problem for long stays. C．To study bacteria in lunar environment. D．To produce nitrogen and phosphorus. 2．How did the bacteria help plants grow? A．They produced phosphorus directly. B．They doubled the amount of plants. C．They protected plants from bad bacteria. D．They turned phosphorus into a useful form. 3．What happened to tobacco plants in treated soil after 6 days? A．Their roots and stems became longer. B．They had heavier and wider leaves. C．They started to get energy from light. D．They had higher chlorophyll content. 4．What can we learn from Paragraph 3? A．Plants grew better with bacteria in soil. B．Tobacco plants grew roots after 6 days. C．Chlorophyll produced energy for plants. D．Plants couldn’t grow without bacteria. 5．Where is the text most probably from? A．A book review. B．A science fiction. C．A news website. D．A guidebook. 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．A 4．A 5．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了科学家利用地球土壤细菌改良模拟月球土壤，帮助植物生长，为解决未来长期驻留月球的食物问题提供新思路。 1．根据第一段第二句“To solve the food problem for long-term lunar stays, scientists are exploring plant growth on the Moon.”可知，科学家探索在月球上种植植物的目的是为了解决长期驻留的食物问题。 2．根据第二段第三句“three species turned hard-to-absorb phosphorus into a form plants can use”可知，细菌将难以吸收的磷转化成了植物可利用的形式。 3．根据第三段第一句“When they grew tobacco plants in this treated soil, the plants had longer roots and stems after 6 days.”可知，处理后的土壤中，烟草植株在6天后根和茎变得更长。 4．第三段通过对比有无细菌处理的土壤中烟草的生长情况（根茎更长、植株更重、叶片更宽、叶绿素含量更高），说明添加细菌的土壤中植物长得更好。 5．文章报道了一项关于月球种植的最新科学研究成果，内容客观、信息新颖，属于科技新闻报道。因此最可能出自新闻网站。 Passage 9 A paralyzed (瘫痪的) patient can tell a robot dog to get a package just by thinking. A researcher can fly a drone without using their hands. A gamer can move a virtual character with only their thoughts. These are not scenes from sci-fi movies. They are real uses of brain-computer interface (BCI脑机接口) technology. BCIs are not just a small, special tool for hospitals. They are becoming a powerful tool that changes many fields, such as health care, space travel and entertainment. How Does a BCI Work? At its core, a BCI creates a direct communication link between the brain and an external device. It does not need the body’s usual nerves or muscles. When we think, our brains make very weak electrical signals. A BCI system can catch these signals in two ways: either with small devices put inside the body, or with a wearable EEG cap (脑电图帽). Then, it uses AI programs to turn these signals into commands for a computer or machine. There are two main types of BCIs: Invasive (侵入式) BCIs: They work very well, but they need an operation. They also have some risks, like getting an infection. Non-invasive BCIs: They are safer and easier to use. It is said that about 88% of BCI companies in China focus on this kind. China at the Forefront China’s BCI industry is growing very fast. More than 200 local companies are working on it. In top hospitals, new and important tests are helping paralyzed patients send messages or move a robot arm with their thoughts. BCIs are not only used in medicine. They are also used in planes—to control the plane’s cabin (机舱) without hands—and in smart factories—to help people and robots work together more easily. What’s more, some Chinese provinces now pay for some BCI treatments with basic health insurance. This makes the treatments easier for patients to get. A Thought-Controlled Future The global BCI market will grow a lot in the future. New progress in materials and AI decoding is opening up new possibilities. These include treating sadness, controlling smart homes and even making people’s thinking skills better. Many of these uses are already being tested. Of course, there are still some problems to solve. For example, we need to make BCI tools smaller, make sure they are safe for long-term use, and make good rules for their use. Even so, BCIs are ready to change how we live and interact with the world—one thought at a time. 1．What can we know about BCI technology from the first paragraph? A．It is only used in sci-fi movies. B．It is only a special tool for hospitals. C．It cannot be used in entertainment. D．It allows people to control things with their thoughts. 2．Why do most Chinese BCI companies focus on non-invasive BCIs? A．They work better than invasive BCIs. B．They need an operation but are safer. C．They are safer and more convenient to use. D．They are covered by basic health insurance. 3．What can we learn about the future of BCI technology? A．It will solve all problems and be widely used immediately. B．It will face challenges but has great development potential. C．It will only be used to treat sadness and c$ 专题13 阅读理解（复习讲义）（广东省、深圳、广州） 目 录 01 析·考情目标 02 筑·专题框架 03 攻·重难考点 真题动向 核心提炼 技巧点拨 04 测·预测闯关 命题 透视 1. 考查方式：选择题型，四选一形式。广州卷每篇3~4小题，广东省卷和深圳卷每篇5小题。 2. 考查特点 ：话题贴近生活和社会热点，具有实用性语篇篇幅适中；语言简洁易懂，贴合初中英语课标要求；注重考查学生对基础信息的提取和简单推理能力。 3. 考点分布：① 细节理解题：考查原因、做法、具体信息等② 推理判断题：考查人物情感、观点态度、细节推断③词义猜测题：结合语境、同义转换猜测词义④主旨大意题：考查文章主旨、段落大意⑤细节排序题：记叙文专属考点，考查事件发展顺序 4. 选项设置：干扰项多为细节混淆、主观臆断，迷惑性中等偏上；正确选项部分为原文信息同义转换，部分需简单推理；选项表述贴合语篇语境。 来源 话题与体裁 题型分布 广东省卷（2025） A篇：应用文（社区薄荷油制作活动通知） B篇：说明文（全球森林减少问题及应对） 细节理解题 （6题）60.0% 推理判断题 （2题）20.0% 词义猜测题 （0题）0% 主旨大意题 （2题）20.0% 广州卷（2025） A篇：记叙文（兄妹在蝴蝶花园的经历） B篇：记叙文（天文学家卡罗琳·赫歇尔的生平） C篇：应用文（校园周刊荔枝主题报道） D篇：说明文（数字信息丢失与纸质书籍的保存优势） 细节理解题 （7题）46.7% 推理判断题 （5题）33.3% 词义猜测题 （1题）6.7% 主旨大意题 （2题）13.3% 深圳卷（2024） AA篇：记叙文（医生Hunter Adams的事迹） B篇：说明文（海洋大型鱼类减少的问题与影响） C篇：记叙文（电视剧《我的阿勒泰》的介绍与评价） 细节理解题 （7题）46.7% 推理判断题 （5题）33.3% 词义猜测题 （1题）6.7% 主旨大意题 （2题）13.3% 命题 预测 1. 语境化：语篇语境更贴近现实生活，考查学生的实际语言应用能力 2. 综合化：注重对语篇整体理解的考查，主旨大意和推理判断题占比可能略有提升 3. 创新化：融入更多科技、文化、环保等前沿话题，考查学生的跨文化理解和信息整合能力 2025年广东省卷 A Are mosquitoes driving you crazy?This summer, make some mint oil to drive them away!

However, a recent scientific report shows that the world lost 300,000 square kilometers of forests in 2024. That’s an area about the size of Italy. According to the report, for the first time ever, fires were the biggest cause of forest loss. ▲ . This country has the largest area of rainforest in the world. Last year, it suffered from a long period of dry weather. Wildfires broke out and spread. As a result, about 25,000 square kilometers of the primary rainforest disappeared in the country. This meant fires caused 66% of its forest loss. The second biggest cause of the world’s forest loss was clearing land for farming. As people need more farmland, they keep cutting down forests every year. In 2024, the area of forest cleared for farming increased by 14% worldwide. The situation was more severe in developing countries. For example, Bolivia’s forest loss doubled in 2024. Without doubt, something must be done. Experts call on governments, businesses and people to work together before it is too late. It seems that China has set a good example. Thanks to cooperation at many levels, China had the biggest increase in forest area among all countries in 2024. That year alone, newly-planted trees in China covered an area of nearly 45,000 square kilometers, according to a news report. If more countries start to take action like China, the earth will become a greener planet. 1．The size of Italy is mentioned in Paragraph 1 to show _______. A．why we need forests. B．where a disaster spread. C．what climate change is. D．how terrible forest loss was. 2．Which of the following can be put in “ ▲ ” in Paragraph 2? A．Farming is a reason. B．Take Brazil for example.

A．Rainforest Became Larger B．Farmland Area Grew Rapidly C．Forest Fires Caused Pollution D．Forest Loss Worried the World 2025年·广州卷 A It was going to be a long afternoon. Aunt Jen and Uncle Pete were visiting, which meant I had to play with Amy. I was mixing salt with mud (泥) in the garden. Amy was dancing around like a butterfly. Maybe she could help prepare food for the butterflies. “Okay, Amy,” I said. “You can help spread this salt on the mud.” She took the salt shaker. “Are you growing butterflies like plants, Simon?” “Questions again!” I shook my head. This little girl had a lot to learn—just like me at her age, when my family started planting this butterfly garden. “Some butterflies need salt to stay healthy,” I explained. “Once, a butterfly sat right here on my arm, tasting my salty sweat.” “I want a butterfly to sit on me!” cried Amy. “I want to wear it like a flower!” “Butterflies don’t grow like flowers,” I said. “They fly wherever they like.” “Aww...make them come to me,” Amy said. “They will. They love our garden’s plants, with nice leaves and juice, and this...” I said, pointing to the salty mud. “I don’t like mud,” Amy said. “See, my new pink shoes are muddy—and pink’s my favorite color!” I tried to distract her attention. “Do you know butterflies have favorite colors, too?” “Pink?” Amy asked, starting to smile again. “They like purple better, and orange,” I explained, pointing to the nearby butterfly weed with dark orange flowers. “Look, a butterfly is drinking the juice of the flowers.” I kept talking so she wouldn’t try to catch it. “Butterfly weed is a perfect host plant. Butterflies lay eggs here, which become caterpillars, then chrysalises, and finally beautiful butterflies...” As I spoke, Amy saw a big bee. “Shoo! No bees allowed!” she cried. “Hey, it’s okay. Butterflies and bees both work for flowers,” I told her. “Butterflies work?” she asked. “Yes, listen...” We stayed in the garden until sunset. Then I smelt bread and suggested, “Let’s rest in the hammock.” As we lay together, Amy noticed a butterfly leaving a flower and cried, “Simon, it’s like a flying flower!” That made me smile. We swung gently back and forth, happy just to watch all the flowers—the ones that fly and those that don’t—until Mom called us in to dinner. 1．Why did Simon mix the salt with the mud? A．To play games with Amy. B．To prepare food for butterflies. C．To make the plants grow better. D．To make it safer for Amy to dance. 2．How did Simon feel when Amy asked her first question? A．He couldn’t believe how silly Amy was. B．He was surprised at Amy’s rich imagination. C．He was a bit impatient but also very understanding. D．He was glad that Amy was curious about butterflies. 3．What does the underlined phrase “distract her attention” mean in the story? A．Clean the mud off her shoes. B．Change her mind about mud. C．Keep her away from the mud. D．Get her to forget about the mud. 4．Why did Simon feel happy at the end of the story? A．The bread for dinner smelt good. B．He enjoyed the afternoon with Amy. C．The hammock was really comfortable. D．Amy thanked him for the butterfly lesson. B When I was young, my father took me outside to see the stars. Once we saw a comet (彗星)! It was the first comet I’d seen but wasn’t the last. My name is Caroline Herschel. I was born in Hanover, Germany in 1750. When I was 22, I moved to England to stay with my older brother, William. He was a musician and he offered me singing lessons. I helped him with housework in return. I practiced hard and soon started singing at his concerts. Life changed when William became interested in astronomy. He read about space late into the night. Breakfast often turned into a lesson about stars. I learned a lot from him. And we even started working together on a big project: building telescopes—the special tools for seeing faraway things. To make the perfect mirrors for our telescopes, we heated metals and shaped them using special molds (模具). These molds were made from strange things, like dry horse waste. I had to break it into small bits. It was dirty work, but I didn’t mind. Someone had to do it. Making the mirrors smooth was very difficult. William invented a machine to help, but he still had to work without stopping for hours once he began. He couldn’t even stop to eat, so I fed him and read stories to keep him happy and relaxed. In 1781, William discovered something fantastic—a new planet! King George was so glad that he made William his astronomer. William made a telescope just for me. And I was able to search the sky along with him. On August 1, 1786, I found something special too—a comet! I watched it carefully for one more night and discovered it was real. Now everyone is talking about my comet. They call it the Lady’s Comet. This is the first comet I’ve ever discovered, but I don’t think it will be the last. Historical Note: After Caroline discovered her first comet, King George paid her to be William’s assistant (助手). She was one of the first women astronomers to be paid for her work. She went on to find seven more comets herself between 1786 and 1797. 1．Why did Caroline move to England? A．To live with her brother. B．To study at a music school. C．To sing at famous concerts. D．To look after a sick relative. 2．In what order did the following happen in Caroline’s life? a. She discovered her first comet.    b. Her brother built a telescope for her. c. Her brother became interested in space.    d. She built telescopes together with her brother. e. She got paid by King George to help with her brother’s work. A．c-d-b-a-e B．c-d-e-b-a C．c-b-d-a-e D．c-b-a-e-d 3．How many comets did Caroline discover by herself? A．One. B．Seven. C．Eight. D．Nine. 4．Which of the following best describes Caroline and William’s working relationship? A．Caroline gave William more help. B．Caroline had to do all the dirty work. C．William took care of most of the work. D．They were important to each other’s success.

But will we be able to read today’s digital (数字的) books in hundreds of years? Librarians are worried. Even now, we can’t open some files (文件) from 20 or 25 years ago. Will our digital works be lost in a digital black hole? Will we face the loss of valuable information? Technology is changing fast. Old ways of keeping information are gone now, or they are no longer supported by new technology. For example, many people used floppy discs (软盘) to save files years ago, but today few machines can open them. Also, millions of songs and music pieces were saved on tapes or CDs, but now most old music players no longer work. Another problem is that websites often change or close down, and all the information on them can fall into the digital black hole. Books, however, are quite easy to keep. We don’t need special tools or technology to read them. If you keep them in a dry and safe place, they will stay safe for a long time. Li Shizhen’s great medical book Ben Cao Gang Mu came out in 1593. Amazingly, three copies from the first printing still survive today. That’s not bad for a book more than 400 years old. Today, to some researchers, printed books remain a safe way to keep information. In 2014, a professional group began to raise money to print a famous online encyclopedia into 1,000 books. This would make sure that even if digital technology fails, the knowledge can still be kept. For now, when it comes to storing information, printed copies seem to be the safest choice. However, future technology might develop and provide new ways to solve the problem of the digital black hole. Time will tell. 1．What happens if our digital works fall into a digital black hole? A．They are carefully kept. B．They cannot be understood. C．They cannot be read or reached. D．They are saved in a wrong place. 2．What is Paragraph 2 mainly about? A．How music players are developing. B．How technology is changing over time. C．Why old machines are no longer used today. D．Why technology may cause information loss. 3．Why does the writer mention Ben Cao Gang Mu? A．To discuss why this book is still important. B．To show printed books can last for a long time. C．To explain how easy it is to keep printed books. D．To tell when the earliest printed book came out. 4．What would the writer most probably agree with? A．Libraries should keep more digital books. B．Digital books are less valuable than printed ones. C．Technology will soon solve the problem of the digital black hole. D．Technology is still looking for better ways to keep information. 2024年·深圳卷 A When he was a teenager, Hunter Adams was very unhappy and he spent many years in a special hospital for people with mental (精神的) health problems. When he left the hospital, Adams decided to become a doctor, so he went to a medical school in Virginia, the USA．But when he was there, he did things in a different way. For example, he didn’t like the doctors’ white coats, so he wore shirts with flowers on them when he visited his patients and he tried to make them laugh. The doctors at the medical school didn’t like Adams because he was too different. But Adams believed that people in hospital need more than medicine. He saw unhappy and lonely people, and he tried to help them. He spent a lot of time with children in hospital and often dressed up like a clown to make the children laugh. When he finished medical school and became a doctor, Adams opened his own hospital, called “The Gesundheit Institute”, together with some other doctors. They wanted it to be a place with a different way of working with sick people. Hunter Adams became famous during the 1980s, and in 1998, Universal Pictures made a film about his life. It was very successful. In the film (called Patch Adams), Robin Williams played Adams. Williams said, “Adams is a really warm person, who believes that patients need a doctor who is a friend. I enjoyed playing him.” 1．When did Adams have mental health problems? A．After he left medical school. B．During the 1980s. C．When he was a teenage boy. D．After the film came out. 2．Why did the doctors at the medical school dislike Adams? A．Because he was a warm person. B．Because he had mental health problems. C．Because he was a clown. D．Because he wasn’t the same as others. 3．The Gesundheit Institute _________. A．was a hospital B．belonged to Universal Pictures C．could make films D．was a medical school 4．According to the passage, which statement is NOT true? A．Adams wore shirts instead of white uniforms when visiting patients. B．Robin Williams believed that patients need a doctor who is a friend.

A．how to cheer up patients B．people with mental health problems C．a film about Adams D．a doctor named Hunter Adams B After a 10-year project to count tuna and other large fish in the world's oceans, scientists have made a very surprising discovery: these fish are almost gone. Because of too much fishing, almost 90 percent of the worldwide population of large fish—the ones we usually eat—has disappeared. If we don’t act, these animals will totally disappear. That will influence every animal in the ocean. The demand for fish is growing. Almost a billion people around the world get their protein (蛋白质) mostly from fish. Doctors praise seafood for being low in fat. But what seems like a healthy choice for humans is causing a disaster to our oceans. “People are consuming (消费) too much,” says Lance Morgan, a scientist at the Marine Conservation Biology Institute. A dish of tuna in restaurants costs more than just one animal's life. When fish like tuna disappear from the ecosystem (生态系统), the ocean’s food chain (链) breaks down. Animals such as sharks, which normally eat tuna, may die because they find no food. The news may be scary, but taking action from now on can prevent harm that hasn’t happened yet. World organizations are ordering countries to stop fishing too much. The Monterey Bay Aquarium gives seafood choices to anyone hoping to keep healthy without destroying the environment. “If you care about wildlife, first spend time and think about your own values and beliefs,” says Morgan. “Then decide what you’re going to eat.” 1．How does the writer start the text? A．By giving a fact. B．By asking a question. C．By telling a story. D．By using a saying. 2．What does the underlined word “demand” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A．Wish. B．Support. C．Need. D．Price. 3．From Paragraph 3, we know that ________. A．if sharks die out, tuna will die out soon B．tuna will be more popular in restaurants C．tuna plays an important role in the ecosystem D．tuna disappeared because they found no food 4．What’s the purpose of the text? A．To tell people to stop polluting our oceans. B．To tell people to protect wildlife in oceans. C．To tell people to avoid eating too much seafood. D．To tell people to live a balanced and healthy life. 5．What does the last paragraph of the article explain ________. A．We need to care about wildlife B．We need to eat wild animals C．We need to reflect on our own values and beliefs D．We don’t want to protect wild animals C A recent TV series To the Wonder has become China’s breakout TV hit of the year. It has also won praise at a film festival abroad. To the Wonder is based on the award-winning novel of Li Juan, My Altay, and is directed by Teng Congcong. It is very poetic and filled with beautiful wisdom. The TV drama follows the journey of Li Wenxiu. She once wished to leave Altay, an area in Northern Xinjiang.

A must-watch if you want to discover the beauty of the grassland and life there,” another fan said. “People enjoy the wonderful view of Altay. But the key to the success of the series lies in its ability to connect with the viewers on a human level,” said Teng Congcong. “In the drama, everyone communicates sincerely.

He searched carefully in the old, dusty items, trying to find some hidden treasures. But there was nothing valuable. Disappointed, Andy decided to stop the work. Just then, he discovered a bundle (捆) of yellowed letters and a beautiful wooden box. He handed them to Mom quickly. Mom’s eyes lit up. “Look! Letters from Leo! Granny will be excited! She thought they had been thrown away.” Andy turned to his mother. “Leo?” “He was Granny’s beloved elder brother. He made her the box for her birthday. But it was locked up by him as soon as it was done. For so many years, nobody knew where the key was.” Curious, Andy picked that box and letters up, and then took them to the kitchen. Granny was preparing dinner there. At the sight of the box, Granny sighed, “Leo made this for me to put something special in before he joined the army. But he locked it up and hid the key. He said he would send me clues to find the key by letter. We did get some letters from him, but none had clues. His final letter arrived just after we heard the heartbreaking news...” Granny’s voice trembled (颤抖), “My mother was so sad that she tore (撕) it in half. I thought she had thrown away all the letters.” Granny watched Andy spread the letters on the table. Among them, there were two pieces apart. “Leo did send clues in his last letter, Granny. Let’s glue the two pieces together.” Andy said. Granny picked the letter up and read, “Dear little sister, ... Nonsense (胡言乱语),” Granny frowned (皱眉). Andy looked at the paper carefully, then suddenly he said, “Wait! Maybe we need to read down, instead of across.” “You need to read this aloud for me to understand,” Granny said. Andy read the words slowly and clearly while Granny was listening carefully. Granny’s eyes opened wide. “Leo was using homophones (同音异形词)!” Granny smiled. “Andy, go to the dining room and bring back the painting of a sunflower.” Andy went away quickly. In a few seconds, he returned with the painting in his hands. On the back of the painting, they saw Leo wrote another clue in pencil, still using homophones. Andy read, “Look above the WHOLE WEAR rain doesn’t come down. SEA the broken clock? THEIR! Inside!” Andy rushed to the fireplace, and then gave a clock to Granny. “This clock has never kept time.” Granny opened the clock’s tiny glass door and reached inside. “Over all those years, it has been right here, yet I don’t know,” Granny said. She opened the box with the key and looked into it. There was a photo of a little sister and her elder brother. On the back of the photo was printed: I NEW you’d worked it out. Use this box for all your special treasures. Love, Leo. Granny gently placed the photo and the letters inside the box. “My treasures,” she said softly. 1．What information about Leo might be inferred from the passage? A．He wasn’t good at wood work. B．He didn’t love his little sister. C．He lost his life after he left the army. D．He liked playing a word game. 2．What did the underlined “it” refer to? A．The box. B．The clock. C．The key.

Yu Hua (who wrote To Live) and Mo Yan (the Nobel Prize winner) were the star players, but their real MVP was Shi Tiesheng—the goalkeeper who guarded the goal with his wheelchair. Their “matches” were full of laughter. Instead of seeing the wheelchair as a limitation, the friends saw it as the perfect movable goalpost. When Shi Tiesheng spun his wheels to block a shot, his cheer was louder than anyone’s. The soccer game was never about winning; it was about the joy of enjoying life together. One sunny afternoon, they decided to see a real match. Pushing the wheelchair for miles, they joked and dreamed under the blue sky. When they finally arrived, they discovered none of them had brought enough money for tickets. Instead of disappointment, they burst out laughing. Sitting outside the stadium, they invented their own commentary for the roars and applause of the crowd, creating a story even better than the real game. Years later, Yu Hua would smile remembering those days. “The best goals we ever scored,” he said, “were the ones we celebrated together.” True friendship turns any field into a playground, and every challenge into a game worth playing. 1．Who was the goalkeeper of their “soccer team”? A．Yu Hua B．Mo Yan C．Shi Tiesheng D．All of them together 2．What’s the meaning of the underlined word “movable” in Paragraph 2?

B．Because they considered that the real game wasn’t interesting. C．Because someone told them a very funny joke at that moment. D．Because they chose to enjoy the moment together instead of being upset. 4．What can we infer about Shi Tiesheng’s character from the story? A．He was a serious and quiet person. B．He was active and had a great sense of humor. C．He felt sorry for himself because of his wheelchair. D．He was not really interested in soccer. 5．Which of the following is the best title for the story? A．Friendship and Positive Spirit B．A Story About Winning a Soccer Game C．The Lives of Famous Chinese Writers D．How to Buy Tickets for a Soccer Game Passage 3 Class was almost over. Tom asked our math teacher, Mr Green, about the answer to a math problem. He thought it was 512. But Mr Green said it was 64. Later that day, Tom asked friends, classmates, and other math teachers. Was it 64 or 512? One of the math teachers they asked was Mr Smith, our math teacher last year. He said it was 512. Then the fun began. The next day, in Mr Green’s class, Tom told him Mr Smith’s answer. Mr Green didn’t change his mind. As soon as the class was over, Tom went to Mr Smith’s office. A few minutes later, Tom returned with Mr Smith and four students from another class. And the classroom became an interesting place. Everyone was excited, waiting for a long, heated discussion between the two teachers. We weren’t disappointed. Right then and there, Mr Smith and Mr Green began their argument (争论). They tried to show their answers on the blackboard. They used some math words and expressions I had never heard of, but at one point, the vocabulary turned simple. “No, …” Mr Smith said. “Yes, …” Mr Green answered. “No, …” Mr Smith said again. “Yes, …” Mr Green repeated. … At first, we were on our seats listening carefully, trying to follow their ideas. Later, Tom and some other students began to stand together around them. As time passed by, students showed their support for different teachers and became two teams. Everyone worked so hard, just for the answer to a single math problem. That’s the power of maths! When the school bell rang, the problem was still not solved. “Why not ask all the math teachers at school to join us and have a meeting for it?” Mr. Smith said. “How about lunch time? …” Mr. Green replied. “Great! …” All the students shouted … 1．What can we learn about Tom from Paragraph 1 to 4?

They walked and played happily, looking at the strange shapes on the walls. They didn’t notice how far they had gone. Soon, they were alone in the dark, silent tunnels. Becky started to worry. “Tom, I think we are lost!” she cried. Tom tried to stay calm. He had a long kite string (绳子) in his pocket. He tied one end to a rock. “We can use this to find our way back,” he said. They walked on, with Tom letting out the string. But after many turns, they still saw no exit. Their last candle burned out. They were now in complete darkness. Becky was very frightened and cried. Tom held her hand tightly. They were tired and hungry. The only food they had was a small piece of cake, which they shared. Tom knew they must keep moving. He told Becky to wait while he explored with the string. In another tunnel, he saw a tiny light far away. He ran back to Becky, shouting, “We are saved! I saw daylight!” Tom led Becky towards the light. It was a small hole in the cave wall. They climbed out and found themselves near the river. Some men from the town were searching for them. They were safe at last. Becky felt pleased. The town was overjoyed. Tom became a hero again for his bravery and clever thinking. (From The Adventures of Tom Sawyer) 1．What did Tom use to find their way back in the cave? A．A map. B．A long kite string.

When she was 12 years old, she loved going to beaches with her family. But every time she went there, she saw many plastic water bottles on the beaches. Seeing plastic pollute her favourite beaches year after year, Madison decided it was time to do something about it. After learning a lot about plastic pollution, Madison decided to develop an eco-friendly water bottle. Through lots of hard work, she created the Eco-Hero—an edible water bottle. People can easily drink the water by poking (戳) a hole at the top of the bottle and can eat the bottle after finishing the water. It only costs about $1.20 to make. Creating the Eco-Hero was not an easy job. Madison went through many tests. “I just kept trying new things, and if it didn’t work, I would do some more research and try again,” she said. Thinking about the future of the Eco-Hero, Madison said she wants to do more tests to improve the water bottle and make it stronger and bigger. She hoped her invention could be used during races—as runners stop for water, they’d be able to use the Eco-Hero, drink the water and eat the bottle. The Eco-Hero encourages people to do something to make the world a better place. “Everyone can bring about changes to the world, even if it’s just in a small way,” said Madison. 1．What did Madison see when she went to the beaches? A．Plastic bags. B．Glass water bottles. C．Wooden boxes. D．Plastic water bottles. 2．What does “edible” mean in Paragraph 2? A．Safe to eat. B．Good for the environment. C．Easy to break.

Late at night, Max and Mary lay in bed but the front door was wide open, with the cold wind blowing heavily.) Max: Get up and close the door—this wind is freezing me to death! Mary: Why me? You’re closer to the door. You go. Max: I said you have to do it. I never go back on my word. Mary: Me neither! I’ll never break a promise. Max: (Suddenly having an idea) How about this—whoever speaks first closes the door. Mary: OK! (They shut their mouths at once, curling up in their quilts.) Scene 2 At midnight, a thief entered their room through the open front door. Seeing no one spoke, he packed copper saucepans (铜锅) and silver candlesticks (烛台) into his bag, walked to the fireplace, lit the firewood, and took out stolen ingredients to cook a meal. After eating, the thief carried away the tables, chairs, carpets, and bookshelves, even tore off the wallpaper and took away the window frames, leaving the room in a big mess. As the thief left, the couple still kept silent. Scene 3 (Early the next morning, Max sat on the floor with messy hair. And Mary went out to find food. At this time, a barber noticed the open front door and walked in.) Barber: (Looking at Max’s hair) Sir, do you need a haircut? I’m very skilled. (Max pressed his lips tightly, saying nothing.) Barber: (Thinking Max agreed) Then I’ll get to work. (The barber picked up his scissors and cut Max’s hair. After finishing, he stepped back in satisfaction.) Barber: How do you like it? Isn’t it neat and lively? (Max remained silent) Barber: (A little angry) Not satisfied? Then I’ll cut it some more. (Seeing Max still didn’t reply, he cut all Max’s hair.) Barber: (Holding out his hand) Alright, pay up—three copper coins, please. (Max felt his empty pockets and stayed silent.) Barber: (Angrily) You want a free haircut? No way! (The barber took some black dust under the pan and spread it on Max’s face, then left angrily) Scene 4 (Mary returned with food. As soon as she entered the room and saw Max’s appearance, she dropped the food in her hands in shock.) Mary: Oh, my god! Max, what happened to you? What’s going on?

Passage 7 The summer I turned sixteen, my grandfather came to live with us. He had always been my hero—he taught me to whittle (削) wood. But the strong, smiling man from my childhood was gone. He had Alzheimer’s disease. My mom explained, “He might forget things. We have to watch him.” Watching him became my job. When friends texted “Come to the pool!” I’d reply “Can’t. Watching Grandpa” Resentment gradually (逐渐地) built up inside me. One afternoon, he stood by the door, bag in hand. “I have to get home,” he said. “My grandson is waiting. He’s only seven.” My frustration (沮丧) boiled over. “I am your grandson!” I shouted. “I’m sixteen!” Grandpa looked at me with deep sadness and moved back to his chair. I realized I had disappointed the man who once had endless (无止境的) patience with me. The next day, I tried a different way. I found his old whittling knife. “Grandpa, could you show me how?” He looked at the wood, then my face. For a moment, his eyes lit up with recognition (识别). His hands covered mine. “Like this, Mike,” he said quietly. We didn’t speak much after that. But we sat together for hours, whittling wood. I was no longer just his guard. I became his bridge back to a world he understood. I learned that sometimes love is just sitting with someone, holding their hand.

Let me tell you my story, straight from my own metal-and-motor heart. ________ Since day one, engineers at Unitree dreamed big: robots that could balance, sprint, leap and adapt. They gave me LiDAR, depth cameras and advanced motion control systems, and taught me how to stand firm, walk steadily, and finally dance. Robots like me practised hard before the night of 16 February, when hundreds of millions tuned in to watch the 2026 Spring Festival Gala. Then came the moment. I stepped onto one of the world’s brightest stages, right on cue with my fellow robots, we were there to perform. At one point, I leapt into the air and flipped before landing squarely on my feet. The audience watched in awe before breaking into applause. Some of us even performed moves inspired by kung fu—all while children shared the stage with us. At one dramatic moment, one of us suddenly fell flat on his back. Just as the audience began to wonder what was happening, he rose smoothly to his feet. It turned out to be a trick—a classic drunken boxing move. Last year, robots first appeared at the Spring Festival Gala, twirling handkerchiefs and performing simple movements. We’ve improved a lot since then! Videos of this year’s show have gone viral online. People replay the flips. They slow down the kicks. “It looks like something straight out of a sci-fi film,” one comment reads. At the same time, they ask, “What will robots do next?” That question excites me. Because the gala stage is only the beginning. In the future, robots like me may work in places where people need extra hands, such as care settings and disaster zones. And of course, some of us may remain in entertainment and education— performing, teaching, inspiring curiosity in children who look at us and think, “I want to build something like that one day.” The gala was my debut. The future is my next stage. And I am ready to step forward. 1．Which of the following fits best in the ________? A．I wasn’t built to sit quietly on a shelf. B．I was created in a large factory in China. C．People often believe robots are only cold machines.

She dreamed of living in Africa one day and writing stories about wild animals. When she was old enough, Jane worked and saved her money. When she had saved enough, she went on a trip to Africa. In Africa, Jane met Dr. Louis Leakey, a famous scientist. When Jane met Dr. Leakey, he needed help with an important new animal study. The study would look at how chimpanzees (黑猩猩) behave. Dr. Leakey asked Jane to work on the chimpanzee study with him. To work on the study, Jane and her mother moved to the country of Tanzania (坦桑尼亚). They lived with chimpanzees in the Gombe (贡贝) Forest. At first, most of the chimps in Gombe were afraid of Jane. Only a chimp she had named David trusted her. He let Jane meet his family group. Jane wrote notes as she watched the chimps every day. Her notes upset (使不安) many scientists. They had their own beliefs and ideas about how chimps behaved. Jane said chimps were smart. She said they used sticks as tools to dig up bugs to eat. She also said chimps showed feelings, as humans do. Jane’s work made some scientists think again about their old beliefs and ideas about chimps. They saw that some of their old ideas might be wrong. Some scientists agreed with Jane. After many years in Gombe, Jane became very worried. People were cutting down trees in the Gombe Forest. Hunters were stealing baby chimps. Jane knew what she had to do. She talked about her work with many people all around the world. She asked them for help to save the chimps and the forest. People trusted Jane and helped to support her work in Gombe. Over fifty years, she kept working to protect the forest and the chimpanzees from harm. 1．Why did Jane go to Africa in the beginning? A．To study chimpanzee behavior with Dr. Leakey. B．To write stories about wild animals and fulfill (实现) her dream. C．To save chimpanzees from hunters. D．To help her mother move to Tanzania. 2．Why did Jane’s notes “upset many scientists” at first? A．Because her notes were poorly written. B．Because she worked alone without a scientific degree. C．Because she named the chimps instead of using numbers. D．Because scientists did not believe chimps could use tools or show feelings. 3．Which shows the correct order of events in Jane’s life? ① Jane met Dr. Leakey. ② Jane saved money for a trip to Africa. ③ Jane started telling the world to help save chimps. ④ Jane observed chimps using sticks as tools.

In nature, rainbows usually appear where rain and sunlight meet. Rainbows are beautiful tricks of light. Science, though, has unlocked their mysteries. Where and When Rainbows Appear Notice the weather the next time you see a rainbow. It is usually in the morning or late afternoon. There will be rain or mist in front of you, and the sun will be shining from behind you. Water in the air and direct light are the two things needed to see a rainbow in nature. A rainbow won’t appear if the sky is too cloudy. You can sometimes see rainbows in the mist of a waterfall, too. A fountain (喷泉) under a bright moon can create a small rainbow, and a sprinkler on a sunny day may put on a colorful show. How Rainbows Form René Descartes, who was a French scientist discovered that a rainbow looks like a half circle. However, a rainbow actually forms a full circle. To see a rainbow, the viewer must be looking at the light from the right angle (角度). To understand rainbows, it helps to understand how light travels. Light moves at different speeds through different mediums (介质). Think of running on land. Then imagine running in knee-deep water. You move slower through water. In the same way, light moves faster through air than through water. This happens because water is thicker than air. When light enters water, it slows and changes its original path. This process makes objects, such as a pencil sitting in a glass of water seem to bend (弯曲). We can see rainbows in nature when direct light meets drops of rain. Sunlight refracts (折射) as it enters each drop. The light then reflects (反射), or bounces, off the inside of each drop, like light off a mirror. The light refracts again as it exits the drop. Light refracts and reflects in millions of water droplets in the sky at the same time. This process makes all the colors of a rainbow. 1．Which sentence below can best explain the underlined sentence “Rainbows are beautiful tricks of light” in Paragraph 1? A．Rainbows are tricks made by many scientists. B．Someone lied to us about the truth of rainbows. C．The light plays tricks on people’s eyes and makes rainbows. D．Rainbows are made by some unknown magic tricks 2．In which of the following situations, a rainbow CAN’T form? A．In the mist of a waterfall. B．On a misty morning. C．Over a fountain under a bright moon. D．Over a sprinkler on a very cloudy day. 3．Which could be the best picture for the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3? A． B． C． D． 4．Which statement below is TRUE according to the article? A．Rainbow can be a complete circle as well as a half circle. B．You need to stand at a right angle to see a rainbow. C．Light can actually make a pencil bend in water. D．Light moves faster in thicker mediums like water. 5．What is the process to create a rainbow? A．Sunlight enters the raindrop, reflects, refracts, and then reflects again as it exits. B．Sunlight enters the raindrop, refracts, reflects, and then refracts again as it exits. C．Sunlight enters the raindrop, refracts, bounces, and then reflects as it exits. D．Sunlight enters the raindrop, reflects, bounces, and then refracts as it exits. Passage 2 The average person eats about 40 kg of meat per year. In developed countries, it’s double that—about the same weight as an adult dolphin. But experts now advise cutting down the amount of meat we eat to help slow down the warming of the Earth. So, here’s a thought experiment: what if the whole world turned vegan (eating no animal products at all)? Around 15% of all greenhouse gases produced by humans come from raising farm animals. If we all become vegan, these gases will be slashed. Eating meat takes up space—a lot of it. Around 80% of all farmland is used for producing meat and milk products. This area is almost as large as Europe, the United States, China, and Australia put together. Meat and milk usually give us only 18% of the energy we need, but they cause 60% of the harmful gases from farming. A report by the UN’s climate body, the IPCC, recommends we all reduce the amount of meat we eat, and also how much we waste. The report has found that 8%—10% of the world’s harmful gases come from lost or wasted food. ▲ Large-scale (大规模) farming of cows causes especially serious harm and has been a big factor in the loss of the Amazon Rainforest. When cows digest (消化) their food, they produce methane (CH4)—a powerful greenhouse gas that is about 28 times more powerful than carbon dioxide (CO2) over 100 years. One cow lets out between 70 and 100 kg of methane every year, and there are around 1.5 billion cows in the world today. But small-scale farming of animals can have a lower environmental footprint, and sometimes—as with traditional grazing (放牧)—can even help wildlife and plants live together. Vegan alternatives (替代) also come with their own problems. For example, large-scale bean production can cause forests to be cut down, and almond (杏仁) production requires huge amounts of water. If everyone changed to a plant-based diet, it could bring important health benefits. One study guessed that if everyone ate a vegan diet—rich in fresh fruit and vegetables—around eight million deaths could be avoided worldwide by 2050. There are no simple answers. If everyone changes how they view food, produce it, and eat it in a green way, we might change the world. 1．What does “be slashed” in Paragraph 1 most probably mean? A．Double. B．Remain. C．Reduce greatly. D．Increase slightly. 2．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A．Raising cows especially harms the Earth. B．A vegan world would end food waste. C．Small farms are more harmful to the Earth. D．Bean production needs plenty of water. 3．Which of the following is the most suitable for ▲ ? A．Raising sheep also harms the Earth. B．Many countries begin raising fewer cows. C．People must stop eating beef at once. D．Not all farming influences the Earth equally. 4．This passage is mainly about ________. A．why cows mainly cause the warming of the Earth B．why we should stop eating meat to protect the Earth C．how eating meat harms the Earth and what we can do D．what the advantages of eating fruits and vegetables are Passage 3 Have you ever heard of the “three Rs” — “Reduce, reuse, recycle”? This idea is now coming to life on Mount Wugong in Jiangxi Province through a creative program. To protect the mountain’s beautiful grasslands, the scenic spot has started an “Exchange Rubbish for Gifts” activity. It is simple to join: visitors get a rubbish bag at the foot of the mountain, collect litter along the hiking trails, and return a full bag to receive a special gift. These gifts are often eco-medals or beautiful postcards, turning the environmental act into a fun “treasure hunt”. This activity also greatly helps the cleaners. “Cleaning the wide grassland is challenging,” says one cleaner. “Now, with visitors’ help, the mountain stays cleaner, and our workload is lighter.” A young visitor, Li Ming, shared his experience. He was excited to get his eco-medal. “It’s not just a gift,” he said. “It teaches us that protecting the environment is an action everyone can take part in. It makes us feel proud.” Another visitor, Ms Zhang from Nanchang, came with her family. She found the activity highly educational for her children. “It’s a practical lesson that goes beyond the classroom,” she noted. “It shows them the direct impact of their actions and develops a real sense of responsibility.” In conclusion, the “trash for medal” program on Mount Wugong is a wonderful success. It not only keeps the mountain clean but also makes environmental protection a positive and rewarding experience for all. It shows us that the “three Rs” lie in our daily actions. 1．What do visitors do to get a special gift in the activity? A．They buy a rubbish bag at the foot of the mountain. B．They share their hiking experience with cleaners. C．They collect litter along the trails and return a full bag.

B．It gave them a practical environmental lesson outside class. C．It helped them make more friends during the hike. D．It allowed them to take a break from classroom study. 3．What does the underlined word “responsibility” probably mean in Paragraph 4? A．Humor. B．Direction. C．Pride. D．Duty. 4．What can we learn from the “trash for medal” program? A．The “three Rs” can only be put into practice on mountains. B．Environmental protection can be fun and rewarding for everyone. C．Cleaners no longer need to work after the activity starts. D．Visitors will stop littering only if they get expensive gifts. 5．What is the best structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． Passage 4 Listening to music, watching movies, reading novels... Which kind of art is your go-to choice for fun? According to a new study, art not only calms your mind but also improves your physical health. For the first time, scientists in the UK found that art helps the immune (免疫的), endocrine (内分泌的) and nervous systems all at once, said The Guardian. The study included 50 healthy volunteers aged 18 to 40. Half of them went to see real artworks at the Courtauld Gallery in London, while the other half looked at copies of the same paintings in a non-gallery setting. All of them wore health sensors throughout the experiment. The result showed a 22 percent drop in stress hormones (激素) for the gallery-goers and an 8 percent drop for the other group, according to Art Fund. Signs of inflammation (炎症) also went down by about 30 percent for the gallery group. It’s not just visual art that has such effects. For example, a 2021 Swiss study said that dance reduces stress by improving movement control. What makes art so powerful? Scientists have different ideas. One, developed by Edward Vessel at the City College of New York, looks to our brain’s default mode network (默认模式网络). This network is thought to play a key role in creativity—it usually stays quiet when we pay attention to things around us. But when we enjoy art, this network becomes active. Although we are still learning how this works, ________. According to American Scientist, art therapy was first developed to help traumatized (心理受创的) World War II soldiers express their feelings. Those painful experiences often hurt the parts of their brains that control speech, so traditional talking therapy didn’t work well. Since then, art therapy has helped over 650 million people around the world. Marygrace Berberian, a professor at New York University, said in the university’s news in September that number-based studies, like the new UK study, can help more people get art therapy. 1．What does the result of the UK study show? A．Young people benefit more from viewing art. B．Looking at art copies is of little benefit to health. C．Painting is the most helpful art for lowering stress. D．Stress went down more for the gallery-goers group. 2．What does Edward Vessel’s theory suggest about art? A．It makes people’s memory become better. B．It makes the brain’s special network active. C．It makes the brain’s usual activity weaker. D．It makes people careless about the outside. 3．Which of the following is the most suitable for ________? A．art’s power has long been used in treatment B．art’s power is still doubted by scientists C．art’s power has been fully understood by scientists D．art’s power hasn’t been used in treatment till now 4．How does the writer develop the passage? A．By describing research steps. B．By offering interesting ideas. C．By using many examples. D．By listing different art forms Passage 5 According to a study, in primary schools in the UK, almost two thirds of students go to or back from school by car and 26% usually walk. And about 7% take a bus, while 1% ride. From it, we see that the students fail to get enough exercise. To improve the situation, there are some useful activities. Walk to School Week is among them. Falling in the third week of May each year, Walk to School Week was started by the UK charity (慈善组织) Living Streets to help more kids get out of the car and walk to school. They have prizes for children to collect when they walk to school. And wheelchair (轮椅) users can also join for fun. This year’s theme for Walk to School Week is “Walk with Wildlife”. It inspires children to travel actively to school every day of the week, meeting different animals along the way and learning about why to walk. ▲ On the way, children can meet their classmates and talk with them sometimes or even make new friends. Besides, regular walking also helps them stay fit and feel better both physically and mentally. “Half of our primary school students live a mile or less from their school, but far too few of them are walking to school. The great thing about walking is that it is simple and safe to do. It should be in their everyday life,” an official (官员) said. 1．Which of the following is the result of the study? A．B．C． D． 2．What do we know about Walk to School Week? A．It lasts for three weeks. B．It was set up by an international group. C．It only gives prizes to kids walking to school. D．It gives special attention to wildlife this year. 3．The underlined word “inspires” in Paragraph 3 probably means “________” in English. A．causes B．warns C．encourages D．orders 4．Which of the following can be put in ________ in Paragraph 4? A．Walking to school saves time and money for families. B．Walking to school can help children protect the environment. C．Walking to school requires parents to go with kids at first. D．Walking to school is a good way to get active and healthy. 5．What is the best title for the passage? A．Forget the car and walk to school B．Join in different activities to enjoy walking C．Living Streets made efforts to help parents D．Fun things happened during Walk to School Week Passage 6 Guangyuan White Flower Stone Carving (广元白花石刻) is a great art form in Guangyuan, Sichuan. It dates back to ancient times. In 2008, Baihua Stone Carving became a part of National Intangible Cultural Heritage (国家级非物质文化遗产). The materials for Guangyuan Baihua Stone Carving come from a kind of red (or green) and white stone. This stone is found in the deep mountains in Guangyuan. The base (基底) of the stone is dark. There is natural white color on it that looks like beautiful flowers. This makes each stone like a special drawing cloth for artists. The process of creation is very difficult. Artists first carefully choose high-quality stones, then, they add natural pictures into different themes, such as lifelike dragons, flowers, birds, insects and fish. Carving is really hard and needs a lot of skills. By using special tools, artists are able to carefully cut away small pieces of the stone bit by bit. Slowly, the design on the stone starts to look real. Then they turn the stone into a beautiful work of art that seems to be alive. Guangyuan White Flower Stone Carving not only shows the beauty of nature but also the wisdom and creativity of the local people. Today, people are trying hard to make Guangyuan White Flower Stone Carving more popular. Local artists hold classes for young people to teach them how to carve. Also, more shows are set up to show these beautiful artworks. This helps to let more people know about this special heritage. 1．Which of the following statements about the stone is true? A．They are mainly red or green all over. B．The white color on the stones is man-made. C．They are found in the city center of Guangyuan. D．They have a dark base with natural white color. 2．What’s the first step for artists in creating Guangyuan Baihua Stone Carving? A．Use special tools to cut the stone. B．Add natural color into themes. C．Choose high-quality stones carefully. D．Turn the stone into a work of art. 3．What kind of themes can be seen in Guangyuan Baihua Stone Carving? A．Only animals like lions and tigers. B．Dragons, flowers, birds, insects and fish. C．Famous buildings around the world. D．Modern inventions. 4．Why are local artists holding classes and setting up more shows? A．To make more money from the artworks. B．To encourage young people to give up other hobbies. C．To pass on the carving skills and spread the cultural heritage. D．To compete with other art forms. 5．Where is this passage most probably from? A．A storybook. B．A science report. C．A travel guide. D．A culture magazine. Passage 7 There are 706 billion LEGO bricks on the earth. 7 LEGO sets are sold every second, and more than 400 million people have played with LEGO bricks. LEGO has already been a successful company in the world. Actually, there are many ups and downs along with its development. The LEGO company was set up in 1934. The name comes from the Danish “leg godt” , meaning “to play well”. Ole Kirk Kristiansen, the founder of LEGO, was a master carpenter（木匠）, so it’s not surprising that the first LEGO toys were made of wood. They were simple, such as wooden ducks. In 1942, the factory that made wooden LEGO toys was burned to the ground. This made Ole realize the disadvantages of working with wood. Soon Ole found out that plastic is a good material to make toys. LEGO started making self-locking bricks in 1949. But it wasn’t until 1958, when the locking design was much improved, that sales began to rise. Because of its quality and the endless creativity that it lets children have, LEGO achieved huge success. In 2000, children began to spend more time playing video games. By 2003, LEGO’s sales were down by 30%, and LEGO nearly went broke. The turning point appeared in 2004 when LEGO focused again on its bricks. And it also worked with films and television. The Internet was used to build a LEGO group where fans show their love for LEGO collections. In 2015, it again became a name known to the world. 1．How does the writer show the popularity of LEGO in Paragraph 1? A．By telling a story. B．By giving examples. C．By listing numbers. D．By asking questions. 2．What does the underlined word “this” mean in Paragraph 2? A．LEGO toys. B．Wooden ducks. C．The factory. D．The fire. 3．Which of the pictures shows the development of the LEGO company? A． B． C． D． 4．Which of the following words can best describe Ole Kirk Kristiansen? A．Friendly. B．Creative. C．Energetic. D．Humorous. 5．What will the author probably write about LEGO next? A．Sales data. B．New collections. C．Customer review. D．Recent development. Passage 8 As humans explore deep space, the Moon has become a key stepping stone for building bases. To solve the food problem for long-term lunar stays, scientists are exploring plant growth on the Moon. However, lunar soil is very poor—it lacks nutrients like nitrogen (氮)and has phosphorus (磷)that plants can’t easily take in. A new study by Chinese Agricultural University researchers found that Earth soil bacteria could be the solution. They tested five bacteria species on simulated (模拟的)lunar soil. Within 10 to 21 days, three species turned hard-to-absorb phosphorus into a form plants can use, doubling its amount. When they grew tobacco (烟草)plants in this treated soil, the plants had longer roots and stems after 6 days. After 24 days, the plants were heavier with wider leaves, and their chlorophyll (叶绿素)content, which helps plants get energy from light, was over twice as high as those grown without bacteria. This study is great news for future lunar missions. Using lunar soil as growing material with bacteria can save rocket space, as it won’t need to carry full growing systems from Earth. In the future, scientists hope to test real lunar soil and grow main crops like corn and potatoes. 1．What is the purpose of growing plants on the Moon? A．To test if plants can grow on the Moon. B．To solve the food problem for long stays. C．To study bacteria in lunar environment. D．To produce nitrogen and phosphorus. 2．How did the bacteria help plants grow? A．They produced phosphorus directly. B．They doubled the amount of plants. C．They protected plants from bad bacteria. D．They turned phosphorus into a useful form. 3．What happened to tobacco plants in treated soil after 6 days? A．Their roots and stems became longer. B．They had heavier and wider leaves. C．They started to get energy from light. D．They had higher chlorophyll content. 4．What can we learn from Paragraph 3? A．Plants grew better with bacteria in soil. B．Tobacco plants grew roots after 6 days. C．Chlorophyll produced energy for plants. D．Plants couldn’t grow without bacteria. 5．Where is the text most probably from? A．A book review. B．A science fiction. C．A news website. D．A guidebook. Passage 9 A paralyzed (瘫痪的) patient can tell a robot dog to get a package just by thinking. A researcher can fly a drone without using their hands. A gamer can move a virtual character with only their thoughts. These are not scenes from sci-fi movies. They are real uses of brain-computer interface (BCI脑机接口) technology. BCIs are not just a small, special tool for hospitals. They are becoming a powerful tool that changes many fields, such as health care, space travel and entertainment. How Does a BCI Work? At its core, a BCI creates a direct communication link between the brain and an external device. It does not need the body’s usual nerves or muscles. When we think, our brains make very weak electrical signals. A BCI system can catch these signals in two ways: either with small devices put inside the body, or with a wearable EEG cap (脑电图帽). Then, it uses AI programs to turn these signals into commands for a computer or machine. There are two main types of BCIs: Invasive (侵入式) BCIs: They work very well, but they need an operation. They also have some risks, like getting an infection. Non-invasive BCIs: They are safer and easier to use. It is said that about 88% of BCI companies in China focus on this kind. China at the Forefront China’s BCI industry is growing very fast. More than 200 local companies are working on it. In top hospitals, new and important tests are helping paralyzed patients send messages or move a robot arm with their thoughts. BCIs are not only used in medicine. They are also used in planes—to control the plane’s cabin (机舱) without hands—and in smart factories—to help people and robots work together more easily. What’s more, some Chinese provinces now pay for some BCI treatments with basic health insurance. This makes the treatments easier for patients to get. A Thought-Controlled Future The global BCI market will grow a lot in the future. New progress in materials and AI decoding is opening up new possibilities. These include treating sadness, controlling smart homes and even making people’s thinking skills better. Many of these uses are already being tested. Of course, there are still some problems to solve. For example, we need to make BCI tools smaller, make sure they are safe for long-term use, and make good rules for their use. Even so, BCIs are ready to change how we live and interact with the world—one thought at a time. 1．What can we know about BCI technology from the first paragraph? A．It is only used in sci-fi movies. B．It is only a special tool for hospitals. C．It cannot be used in entertainment. D．It allows people to control things with their thoughts. 2．Why do most Chinese BCI companies focus on non-invasive BCIs? A．They work better than invasive BCIs. B．They need an operation but are safer. C．They are safer and more convenient to use. D．They are covered by basic health insurance. 3．What can we learn about the future of BCI technology? A．It will solve all problems and be widely used immediately. B．It will face challenges but has great development potential. C．It will only be used to treat sadness and control smart homes. D．It will stop developing because of safety issues. 4．Which of the following sentences is right? A．BCI needs nerves and muscles to connect the brain and devices. B．China has over 200 local companies working on BCI technology. C．Invasive BCIs are safer than non-invasive BCIs. D．BCI technology is not used in planes or smart factories. 5．What is the main idea of the passage? A．To introduce how to use non-invasive BCIs in daily life. B．To talk about the history of BCI technology in China. C．To explain why invasive BCIs are not popular. D．To introduce BCI, its working principle, development and future. Passage 10 Most people connect running with speed, seeing it as an exercise that leaves runners breathless and tired when they finish. So, when someone runs slowly, they might feel like they’re not putting in enough effort. However, different running styles have different advantages. ▲ One style of slow running that has recently been popular is running at a niko niko pace. Niko niko running was developed by Hiroaki Tanaka, a Japanese professor. The name niko niko, which means “smile” in Japanese, perfectly explains this running style. Instead of pushing yourself through hard exercise, niko niko running wants you to exercise while enjoying yourself. Dr. Tanaka spent years improving niko niko running. The general rule is that people run at an intensity (强度) below 50% of their VO2 max, which means the amount of oxygen (氧气) our bodies use during exercise. For most people, this pace is just a little faster than walking. Jogging at the niko niko pace should make it possible for people to carry on a conversation easily. Besides its slow speed, keeping proper posture (姿势) is important in niko niko running. This requires taking shorter, quicker steps—about 180 per minute—and landing on the mid-foot rather than the heel (脚后跟). Dr. Tanaka recommends that people stand tall while jogging with their backs straight and shoulders relaxed. Of course, people should jog with smiles on their faces. Running at a niko niko pace allows people to run for long periods without getting tired. Exercising over long periods can make us feel energetic and keep us in a good mood. Next time you go for a run, try slowing down and jogging at the niko niko pace. You might just end the run with a smile on your face. 1．Which of the following sentences is the most suitable for ▲ in paragraph 1? A．You need to pick a proper running style based on your physical condition. B．Fast running is still the most useful way to build up physical strength. C．Slow running can hardly bring any real advantages to runners. D．Slow running can be a good choice for your running plan. 2．What can we learn about niko niko running? A．It requires runners to run as slowly as they can. B．It allows runners to talk easily while jogging at this pace. C．It was created to help runners improve their speed quickly. D．Its intensity is over 50% of runners’ VO2 max in most cases. 3．Which of the following pictures shows the proper posture in niko niko running? A．B． C． D． 4．What's the main purpose of the article? A．To introduce a popular slow running style. B．To compare fast running and slow running. C．To tell us how to improve running speed and posture. D．To explain why Dr. Tanaka developed new running styles. Passage 11 The theme of the 2025 World Environment Day is “Ending Plastic Pollution”. How does plastic pollution influence our Earth? Please look at the picture below. Scientists have found that plastic has reached almost every part of our planet! Even in places like the Arctic and the Sahara Desert, there are microplastic (微塑料) bits. They come from bigger plastic which breaks apart and ends up in oceans, soil and air. Microplastic bits can get into a human body in different ways. We breathe them in every day. According to a report by UN Environment Programme, about 60% of our clothes are made of unnatural materials. While washing these clothes, small plastic fibers (纤维) can be produced. Microplastic bits are also found in our food. Scientists estimate (估计) that there are about twenty-four trillion microplastic bits in the oceans around the world. The fish that we eat may have eaten them by accident. Many plastic packets we use in the daily life can release (释放) microplastic bits when they are heated. Even fruits and vegetables have microplastic bits, as plants can take them in from the soil through their roots. Studies show that apples and carrots have the most microplastic bits of all. Once microplastic bits enter a human body, they can hurt cells (细胞) and the endocrine (内分泌) system. They can also take in other harmful chemicals and help them enter our bodies, which might make us get sick more easily. To stop plastic pollution, everyone needs to live a sustainable (可持续的) lifestyle. It’s more than throwing plastic rubbish into bins and using less plastic. Individuals and governments should work together to make a difference. Luckily, many businesses in China have taken action to build a plastic-free society in China. To turn plastic rubbish into treasures, ... (to be continued) 1．What does the picture in the passage show? A．The cycle of plastic pollution. B．The cycle of water pollution. C．The cycle of soil pollution. D．The cycle of air pollution. 2．Which of the following about microplastic bits is true? A．Clothes made of natural materials have microplastic bits. B．Microplastic bits can hardly be found in the Arctic and the Sahara Desert. C．The oceans around the world are said to have about 24 billion microplastic bits. D．Among all the fruits and vegetables, apples and carrots have the most microplastic bits. 3．What is the writer’s attitude (态度) to the future of building a plastic-free society in China? A．Doubtful. B．Hopeful. C．Uninterested. D．Surprised. 4．What might be talked about in the next part? A．How we students use less plastic. B．Why it is necessary to say no to plastic. C．What has been done by Chinese businesses to deal with plastic. D．When plastic pollution can be under control completely around the world. Passage 12 ①Nature has many ways to solve problems. We humans learn a lot from animals and plants in nature. There is a science about how we copy great ideas from animals and plants to create helpful products. It is called biomimetics (仿生学). ②Some animals such as this sugar glider have wing-like structures to help them fly from tree to tree. When they jump, they spread out their arms and legs to help them fly down easily. Wing-suits, a kind of clothes, can let people experience flying. The idea of these clothes comes from the sugar glider. ③Some animals have structures used for self-protection. An armadillo has a hard cover that can protect it from other dangerous animals. When an armadillo feels that it is in danger, it will change into a ball. Once the dangerous animal goes away, it comes out of the ball. The armadillo has taught people to create a backpack with a hard surface. The surface of the backpack protects things inside from being broken. ④Plants have helped people come up with amazing inventions, too. Perhaps the best-known example is Velcro (尼龙搭扣). It includes two pieces of cloth. They stick to each other when they are pressed together. Velcro is used on everything from handbags to clothes. The idea of Velcro is from burrs (带芒刺的小果实) of a plant. They have special structures to allow themselves to stick to people’s clothing or hair. They are taken to other places in this way. ⑤From these examples, we can see biomimetics is widely used in our daily life. What other problems will nature help us solve in the future? Let’s wait and see! 1．Which of the following is an example of biomimetics? A．Suits. B．Backpack. C．Armadillo. D．Velcro. 2．What does the underlined word “structures” in Paragraph 2 mean? A．形状 B．结构 C．功能 D．材质 3．Why does an armadillo change itself into a ball? A．Because it wants to move faster. B．Because it’s a shy animal. C．Because the hard cover can protect it. D．Because it meets other animals. 4．What can we infer from the text? A．The idea of Velcro is from a plant with special structures. B．Biomimetics is widely used in our daily life. C．Humans depend on their own wisdom to change lives. D．Human life is closely related to nature. 三、应用文 Passage 1 What is chikungunya? Chikungunya is a disease spread by mosquitoes (蚊子). It does not spread from person to person. When a mosquito with the disease bites (咬) you, it can make you sick. And you usually have a high fever after 3 to 7 days with a headache and tiredness. You may feel there is something wrong with your skin and bones, too. How does it spread? The mosquito with this disease loves warm weather and water. Sadly, as weather gets warmer, this kind of mosquito is moving to new places. Right now, it is spreading across the islands in the Indian Ocean and in parts of Asia and Africa. How to protect yourself? It looks similar to a flu or other diseases when you are bitten by the mosquito, so it makes it difficult for doctors to know for sure what disease you have. The best way to fight chikungunya is to stop mosquitoes from biting you. Here is what you can do: ★Use mosquito spray (喷雾) on your skin and clothes. ★Wear long shirts and trousers, especially in the morning and evening. ★Empty water from things like flower pots around your house every week, because mosquitoes like laying their eggs in some water. ★Try to avoid staying out near grass and water during sunrise (7:00 a. m.—9:00 a. m.) and sunset (5:00 p. m.—7:00 p. m.).

Enter your question and hit Enter... I’m Patrick McCarthy, but you can call me Pat. This is my space, where I offer one-on-one support for your daily life challenges. Feel free to ask anything! Recent Q & AQ-Zone: Dear Patrick, I have many friends. When my friends and I have a fight, how can I make things better? —James A-Zone: Hi James, It’s completely natural for friends to disagree from time to time. No matter what your friends are like, when problems come up, you can try these steps: First, try to stay calm. Listen carefully to what your friend is saying—sometimes there may be feelings they haven’t said out loud. Listening first can show respect and help stop the problem from growing. If you realize you’ve made a mistake, don’t be afraid to sincerely say “I’m sorry.” These simple words can help a lot. If your friend is the one who did something wrong, try to forgive him or her. Everyone makes mistakes, and forgiving him or her can make your friendship stronger and build more trust between you. It’s important to talk honestly about what happened. Try to use “I” statements, such as “I felt hurt when that happened,” instead of saying “You were wrong.” This way, the conversation stays respectful. True friendship isn’t about always agreeing—it’s about being kind and supporting each other, even when you disagree. With patience and trying to understand each other, going through these hard moments can actually make your friendship even stronger in the end. Hope this helps!

Here are four of them. The Twenty-four Solar Terms (2016)It is called the fifth great invention of China. It was created by ancient Chinese people, and it shows the relationship between the climate and agriculture. And it plays an important role in Chinese agriculture production and daily life. Peking Opera (2010)It is a perfect example of Chinese culture. It has a long history and a complete system of stage performances, its main roles include sheng, Dan, Jing, Mo and Chou. It uses four main skills—singing, speech, dance and combat. Acupuncture (2010)It is an ancient form of traditional Chinese medicine.

Passage 6 Home               About Me               Q&A               Others Question: Zhang, 14 Nowadays, some young people like to treat themselves in a way that goes beyond their budget (预算), such as having a very expensive dinner to make themselves feel good. What do you think of this lifestyle?   View (199) Reply (39) Like (200) Aug. 4 Answers: Mary, 14 Some people think this lifestyle is bad because it doesn’t consider the future. But I see it in a positive light: It shows that people choose to enjoy life and stay happy, even when things aren’t going very well. Young people today believe that living in the present is more important. Doing small things like drinking milk tea after a test or watching funny movies can help them feel better. These moments of joy help them face new challenges. Lily, 15 I think this kind of lifestyle is not that good. First, short-lived happiness may stop us from working hard. When we spend much time playing games, we might fall behind our peers. Second, avoiding challenges can make it hard for us to face difficult situations in the future. Instead of finding short-lived happiness, we should learn from older people: to work hard and make plans for the future. We need to face difficulties with courage and take on the responsibilities that come with being a young person today. Tom, 13Young people today are under a lot of pressure. It’s important for them to find ways to relax and protect their mental health. Some older people may think young people are just wasting money. But every generation faces different challenges. For older people, the problem used to be not having enough food or clothing. But for young people today, it may be mental health problems. It’s very important to see things differently at different times. 1．Who may share similar opinions on the lifestyle in the question? A．Mary and Tom. B．Lily and Tom. C．Mary and Lily. D．Lily and Zhang. 2．Why did Zhang post the question on her blog? A．To share her ideas about a lifestyle. B．To make friends from all over the world. C．To ask the old for advice on her lifestyle.
