Ⅰ.阅读理解 A 　　（2025·山东菏泽期末）Ben was eleven years old when he spotted his neighbour， Julie， working in her garden. He popped his head over the fence， and said to her， “I’ve seen you’re very good with a lawn mower （割草机） and gardening tools. The hedge （树篱） over the pathway near here has become so overgrown that I am planning to cut it back myself. Would you like to help out？” 　　Julie loved the idea of helping Ben and their community. They agreed to cut the hedge the following Sunday. Ben’s brother Josh， aged 8 at the time， also came along to help. All three of them tackled away at it until they reduced it. 　　They posted photos of their handiwork on “Our Malmesbury”， their local Facebook Group. The community reaction was amazing. The comments and reactions just kept on coming. The whole town of Malmesbury seemed to embrace their team spirit and felt inspired to follow their lead. Many people raised their hands to volunteer and do more to keep their town tidy. With many willing hands， their town has transformed. Before， the town looked a bit run down， but now， the place looks cleaner and tidier. 　　To keep the projects going， Ben created a Facebook page and website to support their projects. Their Facebook Page “Helping The Community Of Malmesbury” currently sits at 669 members and is a place for all the locals to share what litter picking and cleaning up they have been up to. Ben also managed to sort funding through local businesses and associations. The funding has helped them obtain trees， plants， tools， and gardening equipment. When community members plan a clean-up， they can contact them via the website to access any tools and equipment they need to complete a project. 　　Ben is so pleased that 6 years later， the clean up campaign is still in full-swing. He has just been so overwhelmed with the support over the years that he cannot thank the community enough. Their mission will not stop. 1.What did Ben invite Julie to do？（　　） A.Mow the lawn.

This groundbreaking project， built in 2012， shows how creative design and green living can appear at the same time in a busy central city. 　　The project covers 101 hectares of recovered land and features three waterfront gardens： Bay South， Bay East， and Bay Central. The centerpiece， Bay South， is home to the famous Supertree Grove， a collection of gardens that reach heights of up to 50 metres. These Supertrees not only serve as sightseeing wonders but also play an important role in the park’s sustainable ecosystem by collecting rainwater， producing solar energy， and providing living areas for local high land wildlife. Besides， the Cloud Forest is a wonderful glass dome （圆顶） that houses a 35-metre-tall mountain covered with plants and an eye-catching indoor waterfall. Visitors can start a journey through the forest， learning about the local biodiversity （生物多样性）. 　　As Gardens by the Bay continues to grow， there are exciting plans for development in the works. Future projects may include new garden exhibits， interactive equipment， and better sustainability ways. The gardens aim to remain at the leading position of creative green spaces， inspiring visitors with new experiences and educational chances. 　　One wisdom from the project is the importance of teamwork between various groups of people. The Singapore government worked closely with builders， engineers， and environmentalists to ensure that the design was not only attractive but also ecologically sound. The method drove the application of modern technologies， which allow for the plantation of various plants from different climates. 　　The gardens utilize rainwater gathering， solar energy， and natural airing to reduce energy and water usage. Moreover， the project stresses the value of public partnership. It also encourages visitors to connect with nature and understand the importance of biodiversity. This has led to increased community cooperation and a greater love for the environment. 5.What does the Gardens by the Bay project show？（　　） A.How city planners can use modern technology. B.How Singapore includes green living into a city. C.How citizens grow more plants in limited space. D.How Singapore spreads its city planning experience. 6.What is a function of the Supertree Grove？（　　） A.It is home to the waterfront gardens. B.It supports the park sustainability. C.It houses a mountain covered with plants. D.It shows the high land’s biodiversity. 7.What is paragraph 3 mainly about？（　　） A.The project’s general features. B.The project’s basic facilities. C.The project’s important experience. D.The project’s future development. 8.What does the underlined word “utilize” in the last paragraph mean？（　　） A.Give way to. B.Keep track of. C.Pay attention to. D.Take advantage of. C 　　（2025·济南期中）As climate change quickly advances， many Middle Eastern countries are making the change from oil-based economies to ones that attract people from around the world — for travelling， business， work or to live. 　　One such example is NEOM to be built in Saudi Arabia. A key part of NEOM is“The Line”， a $725 billion futuristic （未来派的） city which will house 9 million people. It is a mirrored wall-like building， 200 meters wide and 500 meters tall. To be built in north-western Tabuk Province， the project will spread 170 kilometres from the Red Sea across deserts， mountains and valleys. 　　At first look， the project appears environmentally impressive. The city area is no more than 100 metres from any point in the city. A high-speed electric public transport service makes sure every part of The Line is within 20 minutes away. Unfortunately， as in many high-rise buildings with a large population inside， a vertical （垂直的） transportation system would be needed， for it is equal to a 125-floor building. 　　The project costs also seem OK at US $55，000 per person. Let’s say this is achievable （做得成的） in a country like Saudi Arabia and only covers infrastructure （基础设施）. Even so， it remains to be seen how super-high-speed transport and most advanced infrastructure and services in the hugest building ever built can be cost-effective. 　　The Line is planned for green living. Energy comes from renewable sources， waste water is recycled， and it owns the latest “smart city” and mixed-use building technologies. Car ownership is avoided in favour of walking， cycling and public transport. 　　However， the materials to be used and the building of such a big project could be very harmful to the environment. The plan says no one would be more than two minutes from nature. But does this include the waiting times for a lift？ Without careful design， a high dependence on vertical transportation may ruin the pleasure of walkable or bicycle-friendly areas. 9.Why will “The Line” be built in Saudi Arabia？（　　） A.To take a step towards green economies. B.To attract more tourists from all over the world. C.To house the increasing population in Saudi Arabia. D.To make preparations for a project known as NEOM. 10.How does the author introduce “The Line” in paragraph 2？（　　） A.By giving an example. B.By expressing opinions. C.By providing numbers. D.By making a comparison. 11.What do we know about “The Line”？（　　） A.It will possibly cost $725 million to build. B.It will be completely environmentally friendly. C.It will require a vertical transportation system. D.It will be a 125-floor mirrored wall-like building. 12.What attitude does the author take towards “The Line”？（　　） A.Unclear. B.Doubtful. C.Unconcerned. D.Hopeful. Ⅱ.阅读七选五 　　（2025·贵州黔西期末）All kinds of pollution and waste are doing harm to the earth. 13.（　　） So everyone can do something to help the environment. Here are a few ideas. 　　Save energy. 　　First of all， turn off the unused lights in time and consider using energy-saving light bulbs （灯泡）， which can save much electricity. 14.（　　） For example， you can take shorter showers. Also， turning off the tap as you brush your teeth can save much water， too. 　　15.（　　） 　　If the place you want to go is not far away， please ride a bike instead of driving a car. Riding seems to be a better choice， because it can help cut down the air pollution. You can also choose public transportation， such as taking a bus or subway. 　　Say no to waste. 　　16.（　　） Don’t take more than you can eat. Growing food needs much work. Moreover， get long life out of things you own by taking good care of them. If something is broken， don’t just throw it away. You can try to fix it or use it to make something else. 　　Use reusable things. 　　When you go shopping， don’t use a paper gift bag， because it is not environmentally friendly. Disposable plastic and paper bags can pollute oceans and the soil. They are hard to break down. 17.（　　） A.Then use less water. B.Choose green travel. C.You should eat less food. D.Ride a bike to school or work every day. E.A reusable cloth bag will be a wise choice. F.However， small steps add up to make a big difference. G.The easiest step you should take is to avoid wasting food. 6 / 6 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ UNIT 8　GREEN LIVING Section Ⅰ　TOPIC TALK 基础知识自测 维度一 1.ocean　2.electricity　3.smog　4.battery　5.carbon 6.flat　7.tap　8.tissue 维度二 1.global　2.industrial　3.extinction　4.transportation 5.solution　6.balanced　7.recycled　8.deserted 维度三 1.Traveling along the ancient Silk Road 2.do our part for 3.keep your balance 素养能力提升 Ⅰ. 语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Ben和邻居Julie以及弟弟Josh一起修剪树篱，并通过社交媒体激发了整个社区清洁行动的故事。 1.B　细节理解题。根据第一段最后两句可知。Ben邀请Julie帮忙修剪树篱。 2.A　细节理解题。根据第三段中的The whole town ...keep their town tidy.可知，社区居民在看到他们的帖子后，开始清洁城镇。 3.B　段落大意题。本段主要讲述了Ben为维持项目所做的努力。 4.D　推理判断题。根据文章内容，尤其是第三段最后两句可知，文章主要讲述了Ben和他的邻居Julie以及弟弟Josh一起修剪树篱，从而引发小镇居民积极参与小区清洁活动的故事。由此我们可以学到“众人拾柴火焰高”这个道理。 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了新加坡滨海湾花园项目的特点与意义。 5.B　细节理解题。根据第一段可知，滨海湾花园项目展示了新加坡如何将绿色生活融入城市。 6.B　细节理解题。根据第二段中的These Supertrees ...local high land wildlife.可知，Supertree Grove的功能是支持公园的可持续性。 7.D　段落大意题。本段主要介绍了滨海湾花园项目的未来发展计划。 8.D　词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句可知，花园利用雨水收集、太阳能和自然通风等技术来降低能源和水资源的消耗。因此，utilize意为“利用”。 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了沙特阿拉伯将要建设的The Line的基本情况、规划理念以及可能面临的问题等。 9.A　细节理解题。根据第一段及第二段中“其中一个例子”可知，许多中东国家正从石油经济向吸引全球人才的绿色经济转型。The Line就是这样的一个例子。 10.C　推理判断题。根据第二段中的数字可推知，本段主要是以列数字的方式来对其进行介绍的。 11.C　细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句可知，由于其相当于125层的建筑，内部人口众多，所以需要垂直交通系统。 12.B　观点态度题。根据最后一段可推知，作者对“The Line”持怀疑态度。 Ⅱ. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了保护环境的一些方法。 13.F　上文指出各种污染和废物对地球造成伤害，下文指出每个人都可以做一些事情来保护环境，上下文是转折关系。F项（但是，小步骤加起来有很大的作用）承上启下，符合语境。 14.A　上文介绍了节约用电的一些方法，下文举例说明要节约用水。A项（然后使用更少的水）引起下文，符合语境。 15.B　此处是本段小标题。本段主要建议绿色出行。B项（选择绿色出行）能概括本段内容。 16.G　下文指出要避免浪费食物。G项（你能采取的最简单的步骤是避免浪费食物）引起下文。 17.E　上文指出不要用纸质礼品袋和一次性塑料袋以及纸袋。E项（可重复使用的布袋将是明智的选择）承接上文，符合语境。 6 / 6 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
