After I signed up for UPchieve, a 24/7 online tutoring platform for high school students from low-income families, I was plagued (困扰) by self-doubt and anxiety.How could I have any impact on my peers?While excited, if truth be told, I was also scared — what if I couldn’t help others? I’d tutored some friends with coursework in the past, but this seemed different. I genuinely wanted to help because I understood the frustration of not understanding what teachers said in class.
My worries quickly disappeared after I accepted my first request on UPchieve.I’ve loved online volunteering since then.There’s an indescribable joy about being able to be there to witness the light bulb going off in the tutee’s head.Despite never having met this person, I have, even if in a small way, become part of that student’s education.It was such a special and rewarding experience.
However, learning and teaching weren’t always fulfilling (使人有成就感的) to me.Despite being a bit more capable of managing coursework than my peers, school was always boring to me.Deep down, learning was not something I enjoyed.It changed when I met my middle school math teacher,Mr Ip.He managed to present complicated mathematical concepts in a digestible and interesting manner and introduced me to a new way of applying knowledge.The feeling of finally understanding something is truly empowering.Now, I hope to recreate this feeling in as many of my students as possible.
As a way of demonstrating my appreciation to Mr Ip, I’m dedicated to (致力于) reaching 1,000 hours of online volunteering.It’s also my way of giving back to my students.With each request I accept, I’m introduced to a wonderful, bright student who wants to learn. I’ve had students talk to me about both their personal and school lives, open up to me about their very real worries about their grades, and make heartwarming comments about my teaching style.I have grown and am still growing.Of course, 1,000 hours is not easy, but I’m accepting this challenge.
24.What was the author’s initial concern after he signed up for UPchieve?( )
A.Lacking teaching experience. B.Being unhelpful to his students.
C.Failing to sympathize with his students. D.Balancing volunteering with schoolwork.
25.Which best explains “the light bulb going off in the tutee’s head” underlined in paragraph 2?( )
A.The tutee finally opening up. B.The tutee expressing gratitude.
C.The tutee offering a new point of view. D.The tutee suddenly understanding something.
26.What does Mr Ip represent to the author?( )
A.A role model. B.A strict teacher.
C.A career adviser. D.A lifelong friend.

(2025·云南部分学校高二下联考)With Earth Day coming up, a new book Birding to Change the World offers reflections on the ways watching birds can renew our joy in nature and even transform our lives. In the book, environmental justice educator Trish O’Kane describes the lessons from birds that have advanced her teaching in Wisconsin.
Author Trish O’Kane is fascinated by American woodcocks (丘鹬), which resemble “a football with wings” and walk awkwardly on land, relying heavily on earthworms (蚯蚓) for food. Their main call is a strange buzzing. Woodcocks are among the 134 bird species inhabiting Warner Park in Madison, Wisconsin. However, every year since the 1990s, on 4 July, the park has hosted a fireworks display called Rhythm and Booms.
At this event, attended by 100,000 people, cannons (大炮) were fired and five tons of fireworks exploded. Birds are known to feel panic and even pain from such loud noise; some abandon nests or even die of fright. The park was covered in metal leftover from the fireworks.
O’Kane was angry when she heard about the plans to further develop the park beyond its existing sports fields. O’Kane carried out research, cooperated with local nature lovers to form an activist group called Wild Warner, and educated middle school and college students about the park. Tirelessly working together, a team of park lovers brought evidence forward to local authorities about the ongoing harm to the park, highlighting the delightful woodcocks eating the park’s earthworms that had poison in them. The authorities listened. Rhythm and Booms was moved out of the park and the damaged areas of the park were restored to their original state.
O’Kane’s story is richer than what can be expressed in the words here. It begins in New Orleans at the time of Hurricane Katrina and ends in Vermont, where she teaches today. O’Kane invites us to see the beauty of birds in our world and act for their wellbeing. We need their voices in this spring’s chorus.
28.What can we know about the book Birding to Change the World?( )
A.It changed people’s lives. B.It describes the beauty of fireworks.
C.It involves the insights into birds. D.It made O’Kane become an educator.
29.What impact did the fireworks display have on the birds?( )
A.Positive. B.Severe.
C.Global. D.Short-term.
30.Why did O’Kane oppose the park’s further development?( )
A.It threatened bird habitats. B.It transformed nature lovers.
C.It increased fireworks costs. D.It destroyed sports facilities.
31.What does O’Kane aim to achieve through her book?( )
A.Expanding park sports fields. B.Inspiring nature conservation.
C.Promoting fireworks festivals. D.Documenting hurricane history.

The sharing economy is an economic model defined as a peer-to-peer (个人对个人) based activity of getting, providing, or sharing access to goods and services that are often facilitated by a community-based online platform.
Sharing economies allow individuals and groups to make money from underused assets (资产).In a sharing economy, assets such as spare bedrooms can be rented out when not in use.In this way, physical assets are shared as services.Data provided by the Brookings Institute detailed the Airbnb’s cost advantage over hotel space as homeowners make use of spare bedrooms.Airbnb rates were reported to be between 30%-60% cheaper than hotel rates around the world.
The sharing economy has developed over the past few years and it now serves as an inclusive term that refers to a host of online economic transactions (交易) that may even include business-to-business interactions.Other platforms that have joined the sharing economy include co-working platforms that provide shared open workspaces, or fashion platforms that allow individuals to sell or rent their clothes.
Criticism of the sharing economy often involves regulatory uncertainty.Unlicensed individuals offering rental services may not be following local regulations or paying the associated costs.This could mean giving them an advantage that enables them to charge lower prices.Another concern is that lack of government regulation will lead to serious abuses of both buyers and sellers in the sharing economy.This has been highlighted by numerous highly publicized cases like the unfair treatment of ridesharing contractors by the platforms.
There is also a fear that the greater amount of information shared on an online platform can create racial and gender discrimination (性别歧视) among users.This can happen when users are allowed to choose who they will share their homes or vehicles with, or because of statistical discrimination by algorithms (算法) that select users with characteristics such as poor credit history or criminal records.
For example, Airbnb had to face racial discrimination complaints from African-American and Latino would-be renters due to widespread user preference not to rent to these customers.As more data is presented and the sharing economy keeps developing, companies within this economy have promised to fight discrimination by limiting the availability of information to and about buyers and sellers.
32.Why does the author mention Airbnb in paragraph 2?( )
A.To highlight the potential of renting spare bedrooms.
B.To show the intense competition in the hotel industry.
C.To suggest the rapid development of the sharing economy.
D.To illustrate the concept of sharing physical assets as services.
33.What is one of the main criticisms of the sharing economy according to the text?( )
A.Being subject to local regulations leads to higher costs.
B.Individuals offering rental services charge higher prices.
C.Sharing service providers avoid government regulation.
D.Cases of unfair treatment of ridesharing contractors are increasing.
34.How does the author explain discrimination in the sharing economy?( )
A.By analyzing the causes. B.By making comparisons.
C.By giving historical examples. D.By sharing personal experiences.
35.What solution has been proposed in response to discrimination?( )
A.Implementing stricter government regulations.
B.Increasing racial and gender diversity among users.
C.Encouraging more users to share their homes on Airbnb.
D.Restricting access to data regarding both consumers and suppliers.

(2025·保定六校联盟高二下检测)In a small, peaceful village at the foot of a towering mountain lived a young and determined woman named Maya. Fascinated by the mountain’s impressive beauty from the tender age of five, Maya had long harbored a dream of standing on its summit. Every single day, she would raise her head up, staring at the snow-capped peak. Her eyes would twinkle with anticipation as her imagination painted vivid pictures of the breathtaking view from above.
One gloriously sunny morning, Maya finally gathered the courage to transform her long-held dream into reality. Her heart pounding with excitement, she cautiously packed a backpack. Inside, she placed a state-of-the-art phone, a detailed topographical map, a precision compass, enough energy-rich food to last for days, and multiple layers of thick, warm clothing. With tears welling up in her eyes, she tearfully said goodbye to her worried family.
At first, the climb was a breeze. The hillside was gentle, and the trail was clearly marked. However, as Maya went up higher, the climb became increasingly challenging. The path turned extremely steep, and loose rocks skittered (滚落) dangerously beneath her boots. The bitter wind howled like a wild beast, slicing through her layers and stinging (刺痛) her cheeks.
Halfway up, Maya crossed paths with a group of experienced climbers going downhill. “Turn back right now!” one of them shouted, his voice filled with urgency. “The climb is turning dangerous, and a fierce snowstorm is approaching. It’s not worth risking your life!” Maya hesitated. Exhaustion seeped (渗透) into her bones, and self-doubt clouded her mind. She trembled uncontrollably. Just then, a large snowflake landed on her glove. Maya’s eyes landed on the silver bracelet (手镯) around her wrist, a gift from her father. As she stared at it, memories of his words of encouragement flooded her mind. She felt tired, cold and unsure if she could continue.
注意:(1)续写词数应为150个左右;(2)请按如下格式作答。
When she climbed higher, the air grew thinner, and every step became a struggle.
With a heart full of pride, Maya knew that there was no challenge too great for her to overcome.

M:We advertise online.Anyone between the ages of 16 and 20 can complete the application form and e-mail it to us.We’re not looking for the perfect performance or the good-looking stars of tomorrow.But the course is in English, so a basic level of spoken language is necessary.
W:Where is the course held?
M:Mostly in a university during the summer holidays.They have halls for practicing, and plenty of bedrooms and dining rooms, which is a low cost for us.And of course, convenient transport is a must, so somewhere in the quiet countryside is no good, even though it is more spacious there.

第四部分
第一节
Listen quietly as flowers bloom
Last Saturday, I participated in a meaningful volunteer service activity in my community, whose goal was to help hearing-impaired students do better in school.
During the project, we tutored them in different subjects. In math classes, we used physical objects like blocks to show numbers. In English classes, we showed colorful pictures of daily items and made simple hand signs for each word. Additionally, to make learning fun, we played educational games with them.
This activity was truly rewarding. Through this experience, I learned some basic sign language, and the activity deepened my understanding of the challenges faced by the disabled. I hope to take part in more activities like this and help more people in the future.
第二节
When she climbed higher, the air grew thinner, and every step became a struggle. Maya’s breath came in short gasps as the icy wind numbed her face. Her legs burned with exhaustion, but the silver bracelet on her wrist — her father’s final gift — seemed to radiate warmth. Remembering his words, “The view is worth the climb,” she gritted her teeth and pushed forward. Step by agonizing step, she ascended through the swirling snow until suddenly the slope leveled. She had reached the summit!
With a heart full of pride, Maya knew that there was no challenge too great for her to overcome. Before her stretched an awe-inspiring vista, the rising sun setting the snowfields ablaze with golden light, her village just a speck in the distant valley. Tears froze on her cheeks as she realised this was never just about conquering a mountain. Every painful step had been a victory over her own doubts. The winds that had tried to break her now carried her triumphant cry across the peaks. In this moment, she understood true strength comes from persevering when every instinct says to quit.
