B Visit any landfill (填埋场), and there’s a good chance you’ll see a baby bouncer (吊椅) or highchair that people threw away. The couple behind Evrloop hope to change that. Vince Giudice and Marlo Gertz-Giudice created their business with one guiding principle: Keep your baby’s carbon footprint little. For the couple, this translates to a business using entirely recycled and regenerative materials in its baby gear (器材), reducing waste, and offering a buyback program where customers can get up to a 20 percent discount by returning their used products to Evrloop. “I like to use the line, ‘Your baby deserves the best right now and 50 years from now’,” Giudice says. He previously spent over a decade heading product design and development at Green Toys, a toy company that makes its products out of 100 percent recycled plastics. When Giudice departed the company, he wanted to take the concept a step further. A father of two, he soon chose baby gear as his product line. Giudice highlights the unique short usage cycle of baby products, recognizing that bouncers, for example, are typically only used for six months. That short lifespan, paired with the fact that, due to considerations of responsibility, some places won’t accept used baby-item donations, means many products are left out on the street. “You have this category where you have a lot of waste and a lot of quality,” says Giudice. “That all came together, and we decided, let’s go ahead and do this.” Evrloop launched nationwide in April with three-in-one highchairs ($220) and bouncers ($200). Products are available at shops including Amazon, Target +, Pottery Barn Kids, Crate & Kids, plus evrloop.com. The couple hope their efforts can help motivate other businesses to go green. “The hope is that people follow suit and that we can share the data on how it works both financially and for carbon cutting,” Giudice says. 4. What is the idea behind Evrloop? A. Promoting more economical baby products. B. Producing environmentally-friendly baby gear. C. Making full use of the recycled baby products. D. Developing a large second-hand baby gear market. 5. Which factor is mentioned about thrown-away baby items? A. Poor quality of some products. B. Single-function product design. C. Safety concerns about old products. D. Incomplete recycling and reuse systems. 6. Which words can best describe Giudice? A. Creative and easy-going. B. Far-sighted and optimistic. C. Business-aware and hardworking. D. Responsible and commercially-minded. 7. What is the couple’s expectation? A. To put their products into the market soon. B. To team up with more world-class companies. C. To make its baby products available to every family. D. To inspire more businesses to protect the environment. C “Dead reckoning” (航位推算) is a very common term said by captains in pirate movies. In the early 1700s, it meant using tools like the astrolabe and compass to chart a course across the sea. These early tools only measured latitude (纬度). Longitude, that is, the east-west position on the earth, was mostly a guess, and reckoning without accuracy meant disasters were common. One example was the 1707 Scilly disaster, in which some British warships reckoned wrong position and hit on a huge rock, claiming nearly 2,000 lives. These common disasters highlighted the urgent need for a safe method to determine a ship’s east-west position while at sea. Recognizing the severity of the problem, Queen Anne of Great Britain issued the Longitude Act in 1714, challenging scientists and inventors to find a practical solution. The British government offered a substantial cash prize to anyone who could find a method for determining longitude accurately at sea. This challenge inspired innovations in timekeeping, leading to the invention of the marine chronometer — a highly accurate clock that could keep time despite the rolling of a ship. The marine chronometer came to be thanks to the efforts of John Harrison, a self-taught clockmaker in the mid-1700s. He took Queen Anne’s challenge to heart and began work on smaller, lighter clocks that used a series of springs and wooden gears (齿轮) rather than pendulums (钟摆) to keep tension on the original metal gears so that they clicked forward with precision. After years of testing, Harrison finally succeeded. Using his clock, the measurements of latitude and a map, people at the sea could reckon where they were with great accuracy. The invention of the marine chronometer completely changed the history of sailing by allowing sailors to compare the time at a known reference point with the local time at their current position, thus figuring out their longitude precisely. This breakthrough largely reduced reckoning errors and made long-distance sea travel safer and more reliable. 8. What was the main problem of “Dead reckoning” in the 18th century? A. It had to rely on tools. B. It was not very reliable. C. It was mastered only by pirates. D. It charted one course at a time. 9. What was mainly talked about in Paragraph 3? A. The seriousness of disasters on the sea. B. The laws and rules issued by the Queen. C. The challenges facing scientists and inventors. D. The measures to encourage longitude reckoning. 10. What played a key role in John Harrison’s invention? A. Good maps. B. Some springs. C. Metal gears. D. Wooden pendulums. 11. What is the significance of the marine chronometer? A. It shortened the time of sailing. B. It helped create many more courses. C. It provided a more precise reference point. D. It reduced the chance of wrong reckoning of position. D Those puzzled by their inability to break free from repeating the same wrong decisions now have a scientific explanation. According to a new study led by Giuseppe di Pellegrino from the University of Bologna, life’s decisions are often heavily shaped by environmental cues (线索), leading to risky behaviour. People frequently base their choices on surrounding visual and auditory stimuli (刺激) without even realizing it. A new study led by Giuseppe di Pellegrino from the University of Bologna uncovered that some people rely far more on environmental cues when deciding, while others do so to a lesser extent. As a result, everyday sights and sounds can sway the decision-making process greatly in certain individuals. In fact, these cues begin to override personal choice. The study stresses cognitive (认知) flexibility as a crucial element in adapting to change. How does the brain learn from environmental signals? The answer lies in its constant processing of visual cues, background noises, and other surrounding information. Over time, the brain forms links between these signals and expected outcomes. This mechanism, called associative learning, enables the brain to forecast whether a decision will bring about a reward or a negative consequence. In most instances, it lets people make choices easier and boosts efficiency. The ability to avoid poor decisions weakens in those highly sensitive to cues, particularly when familiar stimuli change toward signaling less favorable results. Di Pellegrino’s study, centered on bad choices, indicates that such individuals struggle to refresh the meaning of these signals. Old associations exist despite ongoing negative effects, making the brain respond as if circumstances remain unchanged. The researchers also concluded that addictive behaviors and anxiety may tie back to heightened cue sensitivity and weakened cognitive flexibility. These findings throw light on the roots of harmful habits and behavioral patterns. Moving forward, they could pave the way for more targeted strategies to guide decision-making in those particularly paying attention to environmental signals. 12. What does the underlined word “sway” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Mirror. B. Influence. C. Delay. D. Expose. 13. What is the function of associative learning? A. Improving working efficiency. B. Enriching people’s imagination. C. Collecting surrounding information. D. Helping predict the outcome of a choice. 14. What might happen to those sensitive to cues? A. They are easy to develop harmful habits. B. They tend to make more reasonable decisions. C. They are likely to have stronger cognitive flexibility. D. They have trouble refreshing the meaning of the cues. 15. What can be the best title for the text? A. How People Can Make A Wise Decision. B. What Really Lies Behind Environmental Cues. C. Why People Keep Repeating The Same Mistaken Decisions. D. What Is The Connection Between Surroundings And Cognitive. 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How To Keep Birds Visiting The Garden Without Relying On Seeds Do you love having feathery visitors in your yard, but have just about had it with the bird feeder? With sweeping up the messy feeder, it could just start to feel like more trouble than it’s worth. ____16____ By offering a source of fresh drinking and bathing water, you can still make your yard a desirable destination for birds, without the messy feeders. So what do birds like when looking for a potential spot to drink or bathe? ____17____ This makes sense when you consider that birds tend to drink from puddles (水坑). Additionally, if you’re hoping to attract ground birds, keeping the water low makes it more accessible for them. ____18____ As a result the landscape around the bird bath is crucial. They need to be able to easily spot potential enemies and make a quick getaway. A pole situated near the water can be a nice choice. ____19____ But if you really want to draw in thirsty birds, you’ll need to put a little bit more thought into how you present a source of drinking water. In fact, many traditional baths are often too deep and have thick edges that may not be especially comfortable perches (停留). ____20____ A garbage can lid will do, as will a cake pan. Fill the container with two or three inches of fresh water and a few stones or sticks for the birds to stand on. Although it’s quite easy to set up a birdbath, you’ll still need to keep up with some routine maintenance to help keep birds healthy — and keep them coming back. A. Safety is also a major concern for birds. B. You might often see birds settling on the branches. C. And these concrete bird baths are very cheap to buy. D. They are often drawn to ground-level water sources. E. You might want to just buy a concrete bird bath from your local store. F. Before you resign yourself to a birdless backyard, think about: water. G. Instead, you can repurpose objects you might have lying around for a container. 第三部分 语言运用 （共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Three days after moving into Nashville, my husband Paul suffered a heart attack at the gym and was rushed to the hospital.

By summer, Paul had recovered his ____32____, and on our way back to New Jersey I caught sight of the “Welcome to New Jersey” ____33____. I smiled, thinking “I’m not ready to quit you. Not just yet.” Often, only when something unexpected happens can we ____34____ appreciate what we disliked. For me, New Jersey wasn’t just a place now — it was the source of ____35____ when I needed it most. 21. A. eating B. cleaning C. resting D. cooking 22.

I love putting a good power drill to work, so I knew that buying a DIY raised vegetable garden wouldn’t be too much for me to handle. After reading online reviews, I picked a kit and watched two YouTube videos about how to put it together. It looked easy, so I ordered it. Our new raised garden arrived a few days later. I pulled out my power drill (电钻), which also worked as a screwdriver (螺丝刀), and set to work. After about half an hour, I almost had the whole thing done. I was just leaning over to put the tip of the screwdriver into the X in the top of one last screw when I felt a pull on my head and smelled something burning. My long hair was wrapped around the drill bit. Not needing to look, my hand felt its way around the drill and pushed the “reverse (反转)” button. But the drill only took in more hair, and the smell of burning was even stronger. Fear flooded my mind. Quickly, I moved to pull out the drill’s electric wire. Then I held the drill tightly. It pulled on a large mass of the hair attached to my head skin. I felt around with my other hand. There seemed to be only about an inch of hair between the drill and my scalp (头皮). I pulled harder. There was no movement — and the pulling really hurt. I now had a power tool attached to the side of my head — possibly forever. My first thought was to call 911. But what would the emergency medical workers think when they found a lady with a drill attached to the side of her head? No, that wouldn’t work. My daughter, Gigi, was inside, doing homework upstairs, but I couldn’t let her see me in such a stupid position. I was the mom. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I decided to call my husband, though he was working an hour’s drive away. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I didn’t choose to leave voice messages, so Gigi became my only help. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 机密★启用前 高二英语试题 本试卷共8页。全卷满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 注意事项： 1. 答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在本试卷和答题卡上。 2. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应的答案标号涂黑，如有改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案；回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 3. 考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力 （共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话读两遍。 1.

The process of returning books is the same. Anyone is welcome to borrow books but remember to keep them in good condition. Let’s make good use of our shared resources and let reading enrich our life. The Students’ Union 第二节 （满分25分） 【47题答案】 【答案】范文 I decided to call my husband, though he was working an hour’s drive away. I thought there wasn’t much he could do, but at least he could guide me with a clear head. Using the one hand that wasn’t holding the heavy drill, it took a few times to dial the phone. Finally, it rang and rang, and the call went to voicemail. As I listened to the familiar recording, I wondered what message I could possibly leave. Helpless, I hung up. I didn’t choose to leave voice messages, so Gigi became my only help. “Gigi!” I screamed. “Mum, are you okay?” I heard her yell from upstairs as she ran down quickly from her room. I guessed she could tell from my voice that something was really wrong. She took one look at me and laughed — hard. But she stopped when she saw my panic. Twelve-year-old girls know how important hair is. Within a few minutes, Gigi had freed me from the drill. I hugged her. Then, I looked her deep in the eyes, and said, “You know you can’t tell anybody about this, ever, right?” 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
