Water Wall This interactive water play structure is simple to build and provides hours of sensory fun. Attach different sizes of plastic bottles and containers to a fence or wooden board using strong tape. Cut holes in the bottles to allow water to flow from one to another. Children can pour water at the top and watch it travel down through the containers. Place the water wall in a sunny spot near a garden hose (水管) or water source for easy refill. It’s an excellent way to explore simple water movement and gravity while staying cool outdoors. 1. What is a feature of the bottle bowling activity? A. It improves eyesight. B. It uses household materials. C. It requires store-bought tools. D. It needs professional guidance. 2. What makes the water wall work well? A. Enough sunlight. B. Plastic bottles of a size. C. Stable electrical power. D. Continuous water supply. 3. What do these activities focus on? A. Hands-on skills. B. Team spirit. C. Academic performance. D. Scientific principles. 【答案】1. B 2. D 3. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了三款适合孩子的夏日户外创意手工活动：瓶式保龄球、风筝制作和水墙，均创意有趣，还能锻炼动手能力、融入环保与科学知识。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Bottle bowling部分“This eco-friendly project is perfect for reusing household items. Collect empty plastic bottles, wash them thoroughly, and let children decorate them with bright paint. Use a small ball as the bowling ball. Set up the bottles in a triangle shape on a flat outdoor surface. This game not only provides fun but also helps develop hand-eye coordination(协调). Best of all, it requires no extra cost-everything can be found around the home.(这个环保小创意特别适合改造利用家居废旧物品。先收集空塑料瓶，彻底清洗干净，让孩子们用色彩鲜艳的颜料给瓶子做装饰；再找个小球当作保龄球，将塑料瓶在户外平坦的地面摆成三角形就可以开始游戏了。这款小游戏不仅能带来欢乐，还能锻炼手眼协调能力。最棒的是，它完全不用额外花钱 —— 所有道具都能在家中找到)”可知，瓶式保龄球活动的特点是使用家居材料。故选B项。 【2题详解】 推理判断题。根据Water Wall部分“Place the water wall in a sunny spot near a garden hose (水管) or water source for easy refill.(将水墙放在花园水管或水源附近的向阳处，方便加水)”可知，水墙能顺利运作的关键是持续的水源供应，便于及时补水让水流持续流动。故选D项。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章内容，瓶式保龄球需“Collect empty plastic bottles, wash them thoroughly, and let children decorate them with bright paint. Use a small ball as the bowling ball. Set up the bottles in a triangle shape on a flat outdoor surface.(收集空塑料瓶，把它们彻底清洗干净，让孩子们用鲜艳的颜料在瓶身进行装饰。找一个小球当作保龄球，将塑料瓶在室外平坦的地面上摆成三角形即可)”；风筝制作需“You can design kites in various shapes such as diamonds, or even animals. Lightweight materials like paper, plastic bags, or fabric work well.(你可以把风筝设计成各式各样的形状，比如菱形，甚至还能做成动物造型。纸、塑料袋、布料这类轻质材料都很适用)”；水墙需“Attach different sizes of plastic bottles and containers to a fence or wooden board using strong tape. Cut holes in the bottles to allow water to flow from one to another. (用强力胶带把不同大小的塑料瓶和塑料容器固定在围栏或木板上，在瓶身上扎出孔洞，让水能从一个容器流到另一个容器中)”可知，这些活动均需要孩子亲自动手操作完成，即活动核心聚焦于动手能力。故选A项。 B It was a gray day. The cloudy sky had been there for 3 days in a row. Even when it wasn’t raining, there was little light. It looked like all the colors of the world had paled thanks to the gray sky overhead. It looked like a preview of the many winter days to come. I was driving along in my car on my way home, putting on some music to lift my spirits but I still felt tired and run down from the lack of light. Suddenly, Joy to the World was playing and I smiled. It had always been one of my favorite songs. Since no one was in the car with me to hear, I started to sing along in my weak and cracking (破裂) voice. Just as I started to sing, though, a crack appeared in the clouds and a ray of sunlight broke through. It shone through the window and landed on my face. I bathed in its light and warmth and felt such joy. Eyes welling up, I held back my tears and continued to sing. Then as quickly as it appeared, the crack in the clouds closed and the sun was hidden again. But its light remained in my soul. Absorbed in this little miracle, I continued to sing all the way home. Life has its share of gray days and not just in the sky either. When these days appear, you have two choices. You can join in the grayness or you can be the light that finds a crack in the clouds and shines through to brighten another’s heart. For myself, I will always choose the latter. Find that crack in the clouds then. Do your best to bring a little more light to this life. Do your best to bring a little more joy to this world. Do your best to share the love within you. 4. How did the author feel at the beginning of the drive? A. Annoyed. B. Lonely. C. Depressed. D. Anxious. 5. What happened when the author began to sing? A. The sun broke through the clouds. B. A passenger joined in the singing. C. The music player stopped working. D. The car window cracked suddenly. 6. What does the underlined phrase “crack in the clouds” in the last paragraph symbolize? A. Determination to let go. B. Hope during difficult times. C. Potential in personal growth. D. Courage to accept imperfection. 7. What message does the author convey through his experience? A. Music improves our spirits. B. Life is full of ups and downs. C. Choosing light in life matters. D. Weather affects mental health. 【答案】4. C 5. A 6. B 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。连日阴天让作者心情低落，开车唱歌时云层透进阳光带来慰藉。作者感悟人生亦有灰暗时，应选择成为光，传递温暖与希望。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“I was driving along in my car on my way home, putting on some music to lift my spirits but I still felt tired and run down from the lack of light.(我开着车回家，听着音乐试图振奋精神，但因缺乏光线的缘故，我还是感到疲惫不堪和身体虚弱)”可知，在驾车之初，作者感到疲惫消沉，故选C。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Just as I started to sing, though, a crack appeared in the clouds and a ray of sunlight broke through.(就在我刚要开口唱歌的时候，天空中突然出现了一道裂缝，一道阳光穿透了云层)”可知，当作者开始唱歌时，太阳穿透了云层。故选A。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。根据倒数第二段“You can join in the grayness or you can be the light that finds a crack in the clouds and shines through to brighten another’s heart.(你可以融入那片灰暗之中，也可以成为那束能穿透乌云、照亮他人心灵的光芒)”以及最后一段“Do your best to bring a little more light to this life. Do your best to bring a little more joy to this world. Do your best to share the love within you.(去发现那片云层中的裂痕吧。尽你所能为这人生增添更多的光明。尽你所能为这个世界带来更多的欢乐。尽你所能去传递你心中的爱)”可知，前文云层裂缝带来阳光与喜悦，最后一段将生活低谷比作灰色阴天，crack in the clouds象征困境里的希望与光亮。故划线词意思是“困难时期里的希望”。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“You can join in the grayness or you can be the light that finds a crack in the clouds and shines through to brighten another’s heart. For myself, I will always choose the latter.(你可以选择融入那片灰暗之中，或者你也可以成为那束能从乌云缝隙中穿透而出、照亮他人心灵的光芒。对我而言，我永远会选择后者)”可知，作者传达在灰暗时刻选择光明至关重要。故选C。 C Scientists have created a new material called COF-999 that can remove large amounts of carbon dioxide (CO2) from the air. The yellow powder (粉末) works faster than other materials and can be used over and over again. The new material could play an important part in the fight against climate change. Currently, many scientists around the world are working on Direct Air Capture (DAC) to remove CO2 from the air and store it. But normally during the process, air is pulled across a material that can remove CO2 from it. One common material is limestone (石灰石), but the current methods of doing this are expensive and don’t capture (捕获) much CO2. To test COF-999, the scientists filled a small tube with the yellow powder and then piped air from outside their lab through the tube for 20 days. Though there was CO2 in the air outside, the air that came out of the tube had no carbon dioxide at all. The discovery was exciting for the scientists. COF-999 has more things that excite scientists. It captures CO2 about 10 times faster than other DAC materials. The researchers say that half a pound (about 230 grams) of the powder can pull as much CO2 from the air as a tree can. But unlike trees, COF-999 can capture CO2 even when it’s dark outside. Perhaps most importantly, COF-999 can be reused over and over again. The scientists have already tested reusing the material up to 300 times. They believe it could probably be reused thousands of times. The researchers are still working on COF-999, and hope that soon it will be able to remove twice as much carbon as it does now. The next big challenge is figuring out how to use COF-999 in a direct air capture system. The machine will have to be designed so that the yellow powder won’t blow away when air is pulled through the machine. The scientists believe COF-999 will be ready to use in DAC systems in about two years. 8. Why does the author mention climate change in paragraph 1? A. To increase people’s environmental awareness. B. To show the significance of creating COF-999. C. To ensure more funds to invest in environment. D. To explore the role of COF-999 in environment. 9. Which best describes using limestone as a material to remove CO2? A. Costly and inefficient. B. Simple and profitable. C. Insecure and complex. D. Limited and impractical. 10. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The process of testing COF-999. B. The amount of COF-999 capturing CO2. C. The challenges of using COF-999. D. The advantages of COF-999 capturing CO2. 11. What is the author’s attitude to the prospect of COF-999? A. Critical. B. Objective. C. Optimistic. D. Cautious. 【答案】8. B 9. A 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种新型碳捕获材料COF-999。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Scientists have created a new material called COF-999 that can remove large amounts of carbon dioxide (CO2) from the air. The yellow powder (粉末) works faster than other materials and can be used over and over again. The new material could play an important part in the fight against climate change.(科学家们创造了一种名为COF-999的新材料，可以从空气中去除大量的二氧化碳（CO2）。黄色粉末比其他材料作用更快，可以反复使用。这种新材料可以在应对气候变化方面发挥重要作用)”可知，作者在第一段提到气候变化是为了表明创造 COF-999 的意义。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“One common material is limestone (石灰石), but the current methods of doing this are expensive and don’t capture (捕获) much CO2.(一种常见的材料是石灰石，但目前的方法很昂贵，而且不能捕获太多的二氧化碳)”可知，使用石灰石作为去除二氧化碳的材料既昂贵又低效。故选A。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“COF-999 has more things that excite scientists. It captures CO2 about 10 times faster than other DAC materials. The researchers say that half a pound (about 230 grams) of the powder can pull as much CO2 from the air as a tree can. But unlike trees, COF-999 can capture CO2 even when it’s dark outside.(COF-999有更多让科学家兴奋的东西。它捕获二氧化碳的速度比其他DAC材料快约10倍。研究人员表示，半磅（约230克）的粉末可以从空气中吸收与树木一样多的二氧化碳。但与树木不同，COF-999即使在外面黑暗的时候也能捕获二氧化碳)”可知，本段主要介绍了COF-999捕获二氧化碳的优势。故选D。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The scientists believe COF-999 will be ready to use in DAC systems in about two years.(科学家们相信，COF-999将在大约两年内准备好用于DAC系统)”可知，科学家们相信COF-999将在大约两年内准备好。由此推知，作者对COF-999的应用前景的态度是乐观的。故选C。 D Dialects are a cultural resource and the collection of ordinary people’s wisdom. They promote the culture of a region. When an area’s dialect dies out, it means the failure of the local culture, such as folk arts. Dialects are also an essential material to study the history of a country’s language and its evolution, making up for lack of documents. They are human memories whose extinction cannot be reversed. According to UNESCO, nearly 7,000 languages and dialects worldwide are facing extinction, falling out of use at the rate of about one every two weeks. In China, there are over 120 languages at risk of extinction. More than half of them is spoken by fewer than 10,000 people. Xu Kaifei, a new media journalist who has a 7-year-old son, finds that Hainanese is not being spoken by the younger generation: “Children do not use the dialect, and some can’t even understand it.” So he started to teach his son the language word by word, uploading videos on social media platforms for viewers interested in Hainanese. Due to education and work, where standard Chinese is used, many young people who spoke dialects have turned to standard Chinese. Some think speaking only a dialect is an obstacle to finding jobs in cities, where standard Chinese is widely used. So they stop using their native tongue. In many families, the parents guide the switch for their children. To research dialects, Zhao Rixin, a professor studying dialects at the Beijing Language and Culture University, has visited over 100 places, mostly villages. “Villages are the best sites as their dialects are well preserved, thanks to the small-scale input of outsiders,” he said. His last survey was done in a village in Chengde, Hebei Province in north China, whose dialect is close to standard Chinese. The dialects in north and northeast China have been better preserved than in other places, he said. The former is similar to standard Chinese, so the local people regard their language as standard Chinese. The dialects of northeast China are popular due to their culture, tradition and economic development. The development of the media and genres (类型) of art has also enhanced people’s pride in this region’s language. 12. The figures used in paragraph 2 are intended to ______ A. illustrate the diversity of dialects across China. B. reveal the serious problem that dialects are disappearing. C. propose a possible solution to protect endangered dialects. D. explain why so many dialects are threatened with extinction. 13. What problem did Xu Kaifei (in Para.3) find about the children? A. They almost abandon Hainanese. B. They don’t have classes in Hainanese. C. They often visit social media platforms. D. They don’t learn standard Chinese at school. 14. What does “the switch” in (Para.4) refer to? A. Speaking a dialect fluently despite their education background. B. Finding ideal jobs in cities with their good language ability. C. Giving up the native tongue for the standard Chinese. D. Taking seriously parents’ advice on language learning 15. Which of the following is a reason why dialects are better preserved in north China? A. The economic development there is not satisfactory. B. The dialect there resembles the standard Chinese. C. Few traditions have been well kept there. D. Few outsiders have come to live there. 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍方言的文化价值、全球及中国方言面临的濒危现状，以及个人和学者为保护方言所做的努力与相关原因分析。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“According to UNESCO, nearly 7,000 languages and dialects worldwide are facing extinction, falling out of use at the rate of about one every two weeks. In China, there are over 120 languages at risk of extinction. More than half of them is spoken by fewer than 10,000 people.(据联合国教科文组织统计，全球近7000种语言和方言面临灭绝，约每两周就有一种不再被使用。在中国，有超过120种语言面临灭绝风险，其中半数以上的使用者不足1万人。)”可知，第二段的这些数据旨在直观展现方言正快速消失的严峻问题。故选B项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Xu Kaifei, a new media journalist who has a 7-year-old son, finds that Hainanese is not being spoken by the younger generation: “Children do not use the dialect, and some can’t even understand it.””(新媒体记者徐开飞有一个 7 岁的儿子，他发现海南话在年轻一代中已无人使用：“孩子们不说这种方言，有些甚至都听不懂。”)”可知，徐开飞发现孩子们几乎抛弃了海南话。故选A项。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段中的“Due to education and work, where standard Chinese is used, many young people who spoke dialects have turned to standard Chinese. Some think speaking only a dialect is an obstacle to finding jobs in cities, where standard Chinese is widely used. So they stop using their native tongue. In many families, the parents guide the switch for their children.(由于教育和工作场景都使用普通话，许多原本说方言的年轻人转而开始使用普通话。有人认为，只说方言会成为在城市找工作的阻碍 —— 毕竟普通话在城市里的使用范围很广。因此，他们不再使用自己的母语。在很多家庭中，父母会引导孩子进行‘the switch’。)”可知，“the switch”指从“说方言”转向“说普通话”，即放弃母语、使用普通话。故选C项。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段中的“The dialects in north and northeast China have been better preserved than in other places, he said. The former is similar to standard Chinese, so the local people regard their language as standard Chinese.(他表示，中国北方和东北地区的方言比其他地区保存得更好。北方方言与普通话相近，因此当地人将自己的方言视为普通话。)”可知，北方方言保存较好的原因之一是其与普通话相似。故选B项。 第二节 (共5小题：每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 Popular among fashion celebrities, Labubu, a small, bunny-like toy with a doll’s face produced by Pop Mart, has become a street style item as bag charms since 2024. ____16____ At Selfridges, Jelly cat is the fastest-selling toy brand.

I had planned to fly to Vienna and take a bus to Prague for a conference. Due to a big storm, my flight had been delayed by an hour and a half. I touched down in Vienna just 30 minutes before the departure of the last bus to Prague. The moment I got off the plane, I ran like crazy through the airport building and jumped into the first taxi on the rank without a second thought. That was when I met Gunter. I told him where I was going, but he said he hadn't heard of the bus station. I thought my pronunciation was the problem, so I explained again more slowly, but he still looked confused. When I was about to give up, Gunter fished out his little phone and rang up a friend. After a heated discussion that lasted for what seemed like a century, Gunter put his phone down and started the car. Finally, with just two minutes to spare we rolled into the bus station. Thankfully, there was a long queue (队列) still waiting to board the bus. Gunter parked the taxi behind the bus, turned around, and looked at me with a big smile on his face. "We made it," he said. Just then I realised that I had zero cash in my wallet. I flashed him an apologetic smile as I pulled out my Portuguese bankcard. He tried it several times, but the card machine just did not play along. A feeling of helplessness washed over me as I saw the bus queue thinning out. At this moment, Gunter pointed towards the waiting hall of the bus station. There, at the entrance, was a cash machine. I jumped out of the car, made a mad run for the machine, and popped my card in, only to read the message: "Out of order. Sorry." 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 I ran back to Gunter and told him the bad news. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Four days later, when I was back in Vienna, I called Gunter as promised. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文 Para 1 I ran back to Gunter and told him the bad news. He looked at me in disbelief, asking me what to do. Flashing him another apologetic smile, I begged him for a delayed payment. “If I miss this last bus to Prague, I’ll be late for the conference which is so important that I can’t afford to miss it!” I explained. “May I have your phone number? I will call you and return the money I owe you. I promise I will keep my word or you keep my watch!” I added, handing him my watch as well as my business card. Gunter accepted my business card but rejected my watch. He wrote down his phone number and gave it to me. “Just keep your promise, Sir.” A feeling of gratitude washed over me as I heard his words. Giving him a firm handshake, I jumped out of the car, made a mad run for the bus, and jumped onto it just before its departure. Para 2 Four days later, when I was back in Vienna, I called Gunter as promised. He picked me up at the bus station where he had dropped me off four days before. Beaming a warm smile at him, I gave him a big hug the moment I saw him. We chatted happily on the way to the airport. I told him that thanks to his generosity and timely help, everything had gone smoothly. When he stopped his taxi outside the airport, I paid him for the “double car ride”, back and forth from the airport to the bus station, together with a generous tip that he turned down. I also gave him an attractive souvenir I had bought at Prague, which he accepted with delight. We became good friends and kept in touch with each other regularly. I felt blessed to have such a warm-hearted friend like Gunter. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者在一次因风暴延误的旅途中，匆忙搭乘出租车前往车站赶最后一班去布拉格的公共汽车。司机冈特不熟悉车站位置，通过电话求助后顺利抵达。到达时作者却发现自己没带现金，尝试用葡萄牙银行卡支付没有成功，而车站的取款机也故障了。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我跑回到冈特那里，告诉他这个坏消息。”可知，第一段可描写作者留下冈特的电话，承诺会还钱给对方，冈特同意，最终作者及时登上了公共汽车。 ②由第二段首句内容“四天后，当我回到维也纳时，我按照承诺给冈特打了电话。”可知，第二段可描写作者付费给冈特，并向对方表示感激，两人成为了好朋友。 2.续写线索：作者给出解决办法——承诺还钱——冈特同意——作者登上公共汽车——履行承诺还钱——两人成为朋友 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①拒绝：reject/refuse ②给某人拥抱：give sb. a hug/embrace sb. ③记下，写下：write down/set down 情绪类 ①难以置信地：in disbelief/incredibly/unbelievably ②开心地：happily/joyfully 【点睛】【高分句型1】He picked me up at the bus station where he had dropped me off four days before.（运用了where引导的限制性定语从句） 【高分句型2】When he stopped his taxi outside the airport, I paid him for the “double car ride”, back and forth from the airport to the bus station, together with a generous tip that he turned down.（运用了when引导的时间状语从句，that引导的限制性定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 吴江高级中学2025-2026学年度第二学期第一次阶段性测试 高二年级英语学科试卷 出卷人：高二英语组 审卷人：高二英语组 第一部分 听力 (共两节，总分30分) 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上，录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节 (共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段录音。每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音播放两遍。 1.

Here are three engaging craft ideas that encourage creativity, recycling and outdoor play. Bottle bowling This eco-friendly project is perfect for reusing household items. Collect empty plastic bottles, wash them thoroughly, and let children decorate them with bright paint. Use a small ball as the bowling ball. Set up the bottles in a triangle shape on a flat outdoor surface. This game not only provides fun but also helps develop hand-eye coordination (协调). Best of all, it requires no extra cost-everything can be found around the home. Kite-making Kite-making is a classic outdoor activity that combines art and basic science. You can design kites in various shapes such as diamonds, or even animals. Lightweight materials like paper, plastic bags, or fabric work well. For inspiration and practical tips, online platforms like Pinterest offer countless design ideas and step-by-step guides suitable for beginners. Water Wall This interactive water play structure is simple to build and provides hours of sensory fun. Attach different sizes of plastic bottles and containers to a fence or wooden board using strong tape. Cut holes in the bottles to allow water to flow from one to another. Children can pour water at the top and watch it travel down through the containers. Place the water wall in a sunny spot near a garden hose (水管) or water source for easy refill. It’s an excellent way to explore simple water movement and gravity while staying cool outdoors. 1. What is a feature of the bottle bowling activity? A. It improves eyesight. B. It uses household materials. C. It requires store-bought tools. D. It needs professional guidance. 2. What makes the water wall work well? A. Enough sunlight. B. Plastic bottles of a size. C. Stable electrical power. D. Continuous water supply. 3. What do these activities focus on? A. Hands-on skills. B. Team spirit. C. Academic performance. D. Scientific principles. B It was a gray day. The cloudy sky had been there for 3 days in a row. Even when it wasn’t raining, there was little light. It looked like all the colors of the world had paled thanks to the gray sky overhead. It looked like a preview of the many winter days to come. I was driving along in my car on my way home, putting on some music to lift my spirits but I still felt tired and run down from the lack of light. Suddenly, Joy to the World was playing and I smiled. It had always been one of my favorite songs. Since no one was in the car with me to hear, I started to sing along in my weak and cracking (破裂) voice. Just as I started to sing, though, a crack appeared in the clouds and a ray of sunlight broke through. It shone through the window and landed on my face. I bathed in its light and warmth and felt such joy. Eyes welling up, I held back my tears and continued to sing. Then as quickly as it appeared, the crack in the clouds closed and the sun was hidden again. But its light remained in my soul. Absorbed in this little miracle, I continued to sing all the way home. Life has its share of gray days and not just in the sky either. When these days appear, you have two choices. You can join in the grayness or you can be the light that finds a crack in the clouds and shines through to brighten another’s heart. For myself, I will always choose the latter.

C Scientists have created a new material called COF-999 that can remove large amounts of carbon dioxide (CO2) from the air. The yellow powder (粉末) works faster than other materials and can be used over and over again. The new material could play an important part in the fight against climate change. Currently, many scientists around the world are working on Direct Air Capture (DAC) to remove CO2 from the air and store it. But normally during the process, air is pulled across a material that can remove CO2 from it. One common material is limestone (石灰石), but the current methods of doing this are expensive and don’t capture (捕获) much CO2. To test COF-999, the scientists filled a small tube with the yellow powder and then piped air from outside their lab through the tube for 20 days. Though there was CO2 in the air outside, the air that came out of the tube had no carbon dioxide at all. The discovery was exciting for the scientists. COF-999 has more things that excite scientists. It captures CO2 about 10 times faster than other DAC materials. The researchers say that half a pound (about 230 grams) of the powder can pull as much CO2 from the air as a tree can. But unlike trees, COF-999 can capture CO2 even when it’s dark outside. Perhaps most importantly, COF-999 can be reused over and over again. The scientists have already tested reusing the material up to 300 times. They believe it could probably be reused thousands of times. The researchers are still working on COF-999, and hope that soon it will be able to remove twice as much carbon as it does now. The next big challenge is figuring out how to use COF-999 in a direct air capture system. The machine will have to be designed so that the yellow powder won’t blow away when air is pulled through the machine. The scientists believe COF-999 will be ready to use in DAC systems in about two years. 8. Why does the author mention climate change in paragraph 1? A. To increase people’s environmental awareness. B. To show the significance of creating COF-999. C. To ensure more funds to invest in environment. D. To explore the role of COF-999 in environment. 9. Which best describes using limestone as a material to remove CO2? A. Costly and inefficient. B. Simple and profitable. C. Insecure and complex. D. Limited and impractical. 10. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The process of testing COF-999. B. The amount of COF-999 capturing CO2. C. The challenges of using COF-999. D. The advantages of COF-999 capturing CO2. 11. What is the author’s attitude to the prospect of COF-999? A. Critical. B. Objective. C. Optimistic. D. Cautious. D Dialects are a cultural resource and the collection of ordinary people’s wisdom. They promote the culture of a region. When an area’s dialect dies out, it means the failure of the local culture, such as folk arts. Dialects are also an essential material to study the history of a country’s language and its evolution, making up for lack of documents. They are human memories whose extinction cannot be reversed. According to UNESCO, nearly 7,000 languages and dialects worldwide are facing extinction, falling out of use at the rate of about one every two weeks. In China, there are over 120 languages at risk of extinction. More than half of them is spoken by fewer than 10,000 people. Xu Kaifei, a new media journalist who has a 7-year-old son, finds that Hainanese is not being spoken by the younger generation: “Children do not use the dialect, and some can’t even understand it.” So he started to teach his son the language word by word, uploading videos on social media platforms for viewers interested in Hainanese. Due to education and work, where standard Chinese is used, many young people who spoke dialects have turned to standard Chinese. Some think speaking only a dialect is an obstacle to finding jobs in cities, where standard Chinese is widely used. So they stop using their native tongue. In many families, the parents guide the switch for their children. To research dialects, Zhao Rixin, a professor studying dialects at the Beijing Language and Culture University, has visited over 100 places, mostly villages. “Villages are the best sites as their dialects are well preserved, thanks to the small-scale input of outsiders,” he said. His last survey was done in a village in Chengde, Hebei Province in north China, whose dialect is close to standard Chinese. The dialects in north and northeast China have been better preserved than in other places, he said. The former is similar to standard Chinese, so the local people regard their language as standard Chinese. The dialects of northeast China are popular due to their culture, tradition and economic development. The development of the media and genres (类型) of art has also enhanced people’s pride in this region’s language. 12. The figures used in paragraph 2 are intended to ______ A. illustrate the diversity of dialects across China. B. reveal the serious problem that dialects are disappearing. C. propose a possible solution to protect endangered dialects. D. explain why so many dialects are threatened with extinction. 13. What problem did Xu Kaifei (in Para.3) find about the children? A. They almost abandon Hainanese. B. They don’t have classes in Hainanese. C. They often visit social media platforms. D. They don’t learn standard Chinese at school. 14. What does “the switch” in (Para.4) refer to? A. Speaking a dialect fluently despite their education background. B. Finding ideal jobs in cities with their good language ability. C. Giving up the native tongue for the standard Chinese. D. Taking seriously parents’ advice on language learning 15. Which of the following is a reason why dialects are better preserved in north China? A. The economic development there is not satisfactory. B. The dialect there resembles the standard Chinese. C. Few traditions have been well kept there. D. Few outsiders have come to live there. 第二节 (共5小题：每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 Popular among fashion celebrities, Labubu, a small, bunny-like toy with a doll’s face produced by Pop Mart, has become a street style item as bag charms since 2024. ____16____ At Selfridges, Jelly cat is the fastest-selling toy brand.

I had planned to fly to Vienna and take a bus to Prague for a conference. Due to a big storm, my flight had been delayed by an hour and a half. I touched down in Vienna just 30 minutes before the departure of the last bus to Prague. The moment I got off the plane, I ran like crazy through the airport building and jumped into the first taxi on the rank without a second thought. That was when I met Gunter. I told him where I was going, but he said he hadn't heard of the bus station. I thought my pronunciation was the problem, so I explained again more slowly, but he still looked confused. When I was about to give up, Gunter fished out his little phone and rang up a friend. After a heated discussion that lasted for what seemed like a century, Gunter put his phone down and started the car. Finally, with just two minutes to spare we rolled into the bus station. Thankfully, there was a long queue (队列) still waiting to board the bus. Gunter parked the taxi behind the bus, turned around, and looked at me with a big smile on his face. "We made it," he said. Just then I realised that I had zero cash in my wallet. I flashed him an apologetic smile as I pulled out my Portuguese bankcard. He tried it several times, but the card machine just did not play along. A feeling of helplessness washed over me as I saw the bus queue thinning out. At this moment, Gunter pointed towards the waiting hall of the bus station. There, at the entrance, was a cash machine. I jumped out of the car, made a mad run for the machine, and popped my card in, only to read the message: "Out of order. Sorry." 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 I ran back to Gunter and told him the bad news. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Four days later, when I was back in Vienna, I called Gunter as promised. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
